Overview of the things I've decided are canon for my son of zeus au so far (hopefully I don't forget any):
The gods are dicks. They arent *always* dicks, but I don't want to sugarcoat them from their original myths, they do bad shit and often
Denki is favored by Apollo, Dionysus, and Hermes the most, Persephone also likes him pretty well
Zeus is Zeus, meaning who knows when he'll decide he loves his son or hates his son or just genuinely doesn't care, he's such a little hypocrite bitch ain't he
Quirks are the exact same as they are in canon, the presence of the Greek gods didn't affect that at all, the gods have nothing to do with quirks and while they still are probably banging like rabbits they aren't really that active in Japan so no, no one else at UA is a demigod
Zeus slept with Kaminari's mom because he was intrigued by a mortal with a power in his domain (electricity) that didn't come from him
Since Kaminari's powers come from both his quirk and his dad, there's some complexities to them
Kamimari was born with lightning powers but they worked differently before his quirk actually manifested (I'm toying with the idea that his quirk manifested while being smiled by Zeus with lightning? I haven't decided if I like that or not yet)
Kaminari doesn't want other people knowing he's a demigod for classic hero story reasons but also because 1. Greek gods being real is a secret and he ain't about to be the one that spilled it 2. It'd be really complicated and annoying to explain and let's be real, at least one person would come out of that thinking he went crazy
Athena doesn't like him because, well, dunceface, duh. She does appreciate his strategic abilities though
Ares also doesn't like him because he doesn't like killing people, Ares and Athena hate that they dislike the same kid so much that they'd consider changing their tune about him on just that alone
In junior high he went on a big quest, I haven't decided on any details of it, but it involved a lot of fighting way to strong people while way too young as most quests do, this is also how he got into Apollo, Hermes, Dio, and Persephone's (and by extention Hades since he loves Persephone enough to deal with anyone she likes) good graces, the quest was likely given by Zeus and likely involved Hera trying to kill him
He's not really surrounded by people in the ancient greek community, it's not like he has a camp half blood and even if he did he'd skip it to go to UA training anyway, but he is pretty well known in those circles post big quest
I'm toying with the idea that he failed his first quest and thus had to go on a redemption quest
Kaminari doesn't like being serious, but despite what his classmates and teachers think, he CAN do serious, how else would he be such a big shot in the Greek community?
Imma be real, there was probably some kind of war that Kaminari had to lead an army in or something. I'm sorry, child soldier stories just have so many layers to dissect it's not my fault that they're compelling in a way
My point is, serious Kaminari is like war general levels serious, but not even LOA attacks are bad enough to bring out serious kaminari, are you kidding, did you gloss over the part about god war? He's having a little trouble taking literally any threat at UA seriously and he'll have trouble taking almost every threat as a pro hero seriously, it's not his fault junior high set the bar way too high on what situations are serious!
One of Kaminari's demigod powers, as the son of Zeus, is that he can't take fall damage. No matter how high up he falls from, he will never ever get worse than a few scrapes
Pissing him off really badly makes the sky get stormy, I'm talking immediate clear skies to nothing but gray clouds moving in and you can't even SEE the sky anymore, also possibly rain, he doesn't do it often but he can and he'd probably be able to control it if he were to practice his demigod powers along with his quirk but we all know he ain't gonna do that any time soon
He can sword fight, he hopes this never comes up
He has to keep reminding Dionysus about the legal drinking age, Dionysus thinks it's stupid and therefore never listens, they have argued about it multiple times
Apollo and Kaminari play chess together on occasion
Hermes at one point gave Kami a special knife when he decided he liked him enough to give him a gift, it's a magic thief's blade which is just a dagger that cannot be found on his person no matter what you do. Pat him down? You won't feel it. Scan him? It didn't show. Metal detector? It didn't beep at all. But he can pull it out whenever. He won't but he does *have* it just in case. I'm also deciding if making it not be able to leave him would be too much. I don't want it to feel like a riptide ripoff, I'm thinking maybe it sprouts wings and flies to him?
Yes, I've just decided, the Thief's Knife will fly to him if left behind and can squeeze into any crack no matter how small to get to him
I'm shinkami trash so you KNOW shinkami is about to be canon in this au
In either 2A or 3A, Kaminari tells Shinsou his secret about the gods being real and him being Zeus' son, he spends a great amount of time explaining all the details to Shin and answering his questions, it's a lot
What can I say? Shinsou is gus confidant, he was gonna have to tell him at some point đ€·đ»ââïžđ
He doesnt tell anyone else, but obv they've got to eventually find out somehow, what you think I'd just let it be lame?? Even after they find out, he won't tell them anything he doesn't have to, waits until it comes up to explain things, it's just too complicated he doesn't want to go through all that AGAIN and with twenty people this time
Oh and before you ask, I'm gonna say no on the flying thing. I know it could be a power of a Zeus kid, I know it could be cool, but no. No he cannot fly.
I can't think of anything else right now but I can't wait to wake up in a cold sweat tonight and realise what i forgot
Also, I'm gonna go ahead and tag @iys-cloud since I know iys really likes this au :]

bad post, worse notes
#atlas entry#both-sidesism is bad but anti-both-sidesism is more often than not a smokescreen to excuse human rights abuses#also this post is obviously about i/p and it's fucking insane to say Jews aren't at risk from systemic violence#or probably more specifically Neil Druckman. who is Jewish. like did y'all forget that the entire 20th century was marred by state-sponsored#violence against Jews. have you ever heard of this thing called the Holocaust or any of the circumstances surrounding it#this is literally just âJews are white people and therefore. antisemitism is justified because it's a movement of the oppressedâ#socialism of fools and all that

Things I've seen tumblr memeing about James Somerton doing Ă la "How did no one see how bigoted he was!" as if those things haven't been a significant part of tumblr culture for over a decade :
Presenting untrue and bordering on conspiratorial versions of (queer or otherwise marginalised) history without any sources
Completely disregarding and disrespecting any expertise on socio-cultural topics/humanities and distrusting academics and historians (incl. acting as if no academics or historians could be queer or marginalised)
Downplaying the role misogyny played in the historical oppression of queer women and concluding that queer men must have been more oppressed than queer women
Bi women are, at best, not as queer as "real" queer ppl, and at worst, simply equivalent to straight women
Despite nominal trans inclusivity, transmasculine ppl are functionally women when convenient (combined with the above, bi transmascs are functionally straight women)
Despite nominal trans inclusivity (bis), shamelessly attacking, threatening and actively endangering any trans woman who questions them or smth they find important (often by unfairly presenting her as violent or as a threat)
Having absolutely fucking wild and reductive takes about ace ppl, the oppression they face and their place in the queer community
Stating that marriage equality is an assimilationist fight while completely ignoring its direct roots in the horrifying consequences of the AIDS crisis for partners of ppl who died of AIDS
Praising western media creators from the past for queer coding even under censure and in the same breath condemning current non western media creators for being homophobic bc their representation isn't explicit enough
Blaming China for all existing homophobic censoring in western media
Assuming all queer media would be better told by western creators and by western standards
Only out queer ppl get to tell queer stories
Heavily criticising almost all queer media created by women or ppl they see as such (see above points about trans ppl) or involving/starring a significant amount of women for any perceived or real amount of "problematicness", but fawning over and praising and negating criticism of queer media created by and starring mostly or even functionally exclusively men (even when it could be argued that, you know, not involving/seriously sidelining women is a pretty clear example of misogyny which should probably be considered "problematic")
And I'm probably forgetting stuff or there's stuff I have internalised myself and don't recognise as an issue
Like idk but I feel like the takeaway from Hbomberguy and Toddintheshadow's videos should maybe be "be aware of such patterns in your communities bc they definitely exist" and not "this guy is uniquely awful" and I feel like a lot of the discussion I've seen surrounding this has been severely failing at that. Most ppl who've spent any significant amount of time on tumblr prob either have internalised at least one of those thought patterns, have had to de-internalise them, or have had to be extremely vigilant to not internalise them (which is done by, you know, seeking out other sources, which also seemed like an important takeaway from the videos)
#Also I'm saying this as someone who actually watched quite a few of Somerton's videos#And noticed those patterns and stopped watching bc I recognised them from here#and had already learned to unlearn them after being so exposed to them here#And tbh I think anyone who hasn't had the luck or made the conscious choice to seek out ppl who pushed against those narratives#Would absolutely have fallen for this man's bullshit. Like let's not kid ourselves we see takes like this every day on this hellsite#2014 me would have. For sure.#This is next to the plagiarism issue which as Harris points out is an Internet wide issue and this includes tumblr#James Somerton#hbomberguy#todd in the shadows#This brought to you by a conversation with my wife yesterday#So many ppl on here don't deserve to meme or be this self absolvingly critical of this man#The call is coming from inside the house#The man has a tumblr it would legit not surprise me if some of the things he supposedly made up himself he did actually get from somewhere#And that somewhere was a tumblr post

What We Want - Chpt. 8 - Jason Fucking Todd
In Which A Romantic Breaks The Universe
(Yandere!batboys x f!reader) 18+ MDNI!
SUMMARY
Another lonely birthday, another empty year. You miss your family. You're late for your bills and rent, and even then, you got robbed last Tuesday.
Still, you buy yourself a cupcake, because you need it. I mean, hey. What's dessert for if not to get over cheating boyfriends and dead relatives?
As you blow out the candle, watching the clock switch from 11:59 pm to midnight of the next day, you make a wish.
And because the world doesn't like to make much sense, it comes true. Your life is suddenly flipped on a dime, and you're stuck trying to catch up with it. Fantasy becomes reality. You're a Wayne now, apparently. Or you used to be. You're loved, you're rich, you're talented and powerful.
Well, sort of. Careful what you wish for, right?
(TRIGGER WARNINGS AND MASTERLIST HERE)
PREV - NEXT
Well, look on the bright side of things. Youâre not crying right now. Thatâs nice. Youâre not an intern anymore. Thatâs nice. You struggle to think of anything else. Oh yeah, youâre rich! Thatâs also nice. Youâre not dead. Nice.
This is kind of pathetic. You just feel bummed after having to break up with George a second time. And getting smacked right in the face by him. Which you know, anybody would be, you think. You donât think a single soul has ever known the George Lancaster Break-Up Special more than once. And you didnât think anyone would be stupid enough to fall for that asshole more than once.
You couldnât fake a brave face anymore, you just didnât have the energy for it.
âŠAnd letâs not forget almost dying via Joker goon. Not even the man himself, just a random lackey. You think of how he literally disappeared in front of your eyes, and decide you are going to stop thinking. Itâs doing you no good anyway.
Instead, you just start walking. Letting your feet and your intimate knowledge of Gothamâs streets, even in this area you donât often frequent, guide you. You find yourself at the train station. With little consideration, you buy a ticket to the southern part of the city. The bad side of town, the docks, where your apartment used to be.
You feel like a little rat scurrying back into the sewers as you hop on the subway, tucking yourself in between people who donât recognise you, probably because of your general dishevelment.
Shoulders knocking against strangers, you feel the most at home since this whole disaster started. You stare across the train car, watching a baby babble to its mother. It catches your eye, gives you a big toothless smile, and some snot dribbles into itâs mouth. The mother notices and cleans the baby up with a tissue. When she catches you staring, you give a very awkward but friendly smile, and she smiles back.
A tiny weight lifts off your shoulders. Surrounded by the chaos of Gotham, as the subway exits the tunnels and heads up onto the sky rails, you find yourself warm by the rays of sun through the clouds. The view is beautiful, as it always is. Usually, youâd be looking at your phone, too busy to enjoy the sights. But it really is beautiful.
Itâs only when you hear the announcer calling out that you realise you did this for a reason, and dart out of your seat and through the narrowly closing doors. The metal closes behind you with a small hiss. The Docks station, for most people, would be one of the better Gotham train stations. Newly built, and with all the tourist money it was clean. Well, clean as it could get. Youâd read some article about the bacteria the rats were carrying being not found anywhere else on earth, and youâd decided to stop reading articles.
Anyway, for you, even the shining marble of the station was a sad sight. Because you only ever came here on your very worst days.
This seemed like one of them.
The familiar streets flit past you, barely something youâre even cognisant of. This part of the city was mostly new, the concrete fresh under your feet instead of littered with potholes. Still, it wasnât at the centre of the blast radius, so it hadnât been totally demolished.
No, that was just up ahead. And like everything else in this weird new world, you immediately noticed something different. Where your family had died was⊠still there, for some reason.
With confusion, exhaustion, and no small bit of despair, you stop in the middle of the pathway outside the remnants of what used to be an old diner and was now just a pile of rocks. Some very charred rocks. Looking at the wreckage, you raise your brows. Its crumbling form is still under construction after all these years. The yellow caution tape is only a deterrence to you because you donât want to end up on the gossip reels for a second time today. Looking around, you find yourself further confused. Lots of other parts of the pier had been redeveloped, but this piece of the puzzle still lay bare.
It didnât, in your home, your world. It had been replaced with high-rise apartments, and since they were so close to the water, so pretty and new, you had no hope of affording them. It probably wouldnât be very good for your mental health even if you could. Still, youâd taken many walks past the street. Enjoyed the little bit of dirty white concrete that had survived. You and your siblings had signed your names into it, and youâd stroked the sidewalk like the weirdo you were many times.
Like you did today. And today, for some reason, the rest of it was here. Untouched. A remnant of the disaster. As you run your thumb along the sharp edge of Julieâs J, you find yourself once again lost in your memories. They were like honey traps to you these days.
The mum-and-pops diner had been run by your uncle. Itâd been in the family for three generations, and he was incorrigibly proud of it. Youâd all had your birthday parties there, because it was free and you were poor. It wasnât like your uncle would let you pay for the food anyway, it was just one of the few times Mum could stand the generosity. She didnât like it when you had disappointing birthdays, and no matter how much you tried to fake your happiness, she could always see to your core. Eventually, you and your siblings all gave up on trying.
You were late. You were often late, but this time it was⊠it was the difference between life and death. If youâd been a few blocks further, a little bit earlier, youâd probably be dead too. Or at least have some serious hearing loss instead of just suffering mild tinnitus.
You had felt more than seen the destruction. The earth had rumbled, and a deafening roar had swept through the streets. You remember falling to your knees, the worry about being late morphing to worry for your best clothes to a true terror when you realised where the blast had come from.
When you realised your family was in the epicentre.
You sometimes wish you were on time that day. That youâd gotten to see them all, even if you went with them. It didnât sound so bad, really. At least you wouldnât be alone. Hmm, you should probably stop thinking like that. Or maybe go to a therapist about it.
Not that you could afford it. Oh, right. Rich now. That was really taking some getting used to.
You wonder if people who won the lottery felt the same way. Probably not, because the rest of the world reflected the changes the person felt. Theyâd have to go pick up the check, go to the bank, and if they let their family and friends know, deal with the consequences of that.
Youâd just woken up rich. No time to adjust, your new life was here and it was demanding your attention very loudly. And soup-ly, unfortunately. After a few minutes of staring blankly at the rubble, you look towards your left, where you know the Memorial awaits you. Itâs in the centre of the new shopping district, built on top of the bombed parts of Gotham. It sits right next to the water, the cold breeze a comfort that youâd turned to on more than one occasion.
Youâd feel bad if you didnât change your clothes. You told Grayson you would, and you already felt bad enough about... everything to do with him. You suppose he was your brother. Your ex-brother. Ex-step-brother. The ex-step-brother of a woman who you werenât.
Really, he was just a stranger. It seemed he didnât feel that way, though.
You start the walk towards the shopping district, and into the first clothes store you see. The prices on the tags would usually make you flinch, but well, it doesnât matter anymore. Nothing seems to matter. Your survival is now guaranteed, might as well wear some clothes that feel nice on your skin.
You walk out of that store looking like you just robbed it. Even the clerk had given you a weird look but accepted the black card tucked in your phone without much complaint. Itâs an improvement if a small one.
Once youâre done, like a moth to a flame, you drift towards the Memorial centre. Youâre following all the steps you used to in the past, but somehow, it all feels a bit alien. The world looks a little different, a little uncomfortable. Your shoes are worn in, and yet they still feel too tight.
Uncanny valley. You feel unwelcomed here, unwanted. Like the very earth can tell that thereâs something wrong in this scene, some intruder. You ignore the feeling as best you can.
The Memorial is just as unfamiliar as the diner was, maybe even more. You know that your mother was a Wayne before she died. You know that. But still seeing your familyâs framed photos, right alongside Jason's is so shocking you nearly jump. It takes a moment of wide-eyed staring before you can manage to get past that. When you do, for some reason you still go back to your old habits. You walk by them, the bouquets and to where their names used to be in thin letters.
You count with your fingers, finding the fifty-second line.
A manâs name replaces the spot where your motherâs is. The little grooves the oil in your fingers had left behind were gone, and instead was sharp stone like when the monument was first erected. It cuts at your fingers. It no longer welcomes your touch.
James Whitaker. Thatâs the name of the man who took their spot.
You can already feel a rising obsession with the random dead man. If you were going to psycho-analyse yourself, youâd recognise that you didnât feel that the images of the Waynes youâd created were no longer real, no longer safe to your escapist mindset. Youâd realise, that this was all pretty unhealthy, and you really, really needed therapy.
Instead, you give the guy your condolences and start reading the other plinths. They seem largely the same. Itâs not like you hadnât read all of these towers of stone at one point or another, your eyes glazing over the many, many names. So much devastation, all in one moment.
And still, this was not even a tenth of all the lives the Joker had taken. You kinda wanna go take a kick at one of the Bat signals littered around the city. Maybe thatâd make you less⊠broiling with incompetent rage.
Again, maybe you should just go to therapy. You should call Jeanine about that or something.
Eventually, you circle back to your family and Jasonâs shrines. You know, back then youâd been jealous that Jason Todd had been so well mourned. Youâd wished your family had gotten the same treatment.
Now, you⊠felt jealous again. Possessive, over their memory, their image. You didnât really like that random strangers that never knew them⊠knew them. That Sam always got As in English and Art class but would sometimes skip math and would hide in the bathrooms to do so. That Chasey had struggled with going to school because of her anxiety but kept going because she had a friend going through the exact same thing. That Julie was the ace of her schoolâs soccer team, and that sheâd almost gotten them to nationals even in the presence of all the super-rich schools in Gotham. That your Mum was a great cook but genuinely hated doing it, but for some reason, baking was her favourite thing even as she had never made a proper macaron.
They didnât know them. They knew their faces and a facsimile of them, but they didnât know them. It reminded you of the people at the orphanage. Nice, but not kind. Theyâd had their own lives, they didnât want some bratty, demented teenager who was going down and planning on taking everyone with her.
You really couldnât be happy, could you? Maybe you didnât know what you wanted. What you want now. What youâd wanted for a while, actually.
Ugh. You close your eyes and let out a deep, soul-shaking sigh. It takes a moment for you to shore up the willpower to open them again. Come on, flower shop, finish your weird little ritual then you can go home and hide for the next millenia.
The walk there is the same as always, if a little more morose. Itâs in a good spot, near the church just a block away and the memorial on its other side, as well as less sombre atmospheres down near the pier. Well, as little sombre as Gotham can manage.
You feel like you blink and youâre there. Too quickly, you find a rainbow of blooms in front of you, the scent of the blossoms washing over you. When you walk into the flower shop, the bell at the door rings the same as it always does. On autopilot, you walk over to the small, cheaper buds. Your hand clenches around the crinkly wrapping paper, a bundle of posies in your hand. You go to the counter with your prize in hand.
Larissa, the counter worker, smiles at you. Your breath hitches. Itâs a working smile, not one of the real, toothy ones she used to give you.
âOh wow, I thought all the posies had sold out. Lucky you!â
You think of something to say, but the moment passes and you donât. She rings you up, tells you the price, and when you pay, asks sweetly if you want a receipt.
She doesnât say your name. Doesnât acknowledge how you come here every week and buy this same handful of flowers. She doesnât ask about your job or the weather. She doesnât cheerfully tell you about how her apprenticeship is going, or about the next sweet thing her partner has done. No, she just stares at you, growing more uncomfortable the longer it takes for you to answer.
She doesnât even seem to recognise this other version of you. It feels like another string that tied you down to the earth has been snipped. You have an image in your head of a child losing a balloon, desperately grasping at the air. Youâre going to float up into the atmosphere, and then youâre going to pop.
You can see the foil glinting in the sunâs light, so, so clearly.
You squeeze your eyes shut, âYes, a receipt, please.â
Taking it blindly, you barely flutter your eyes open as you walk out of the shop. She didnât know you, didnât remember you. That doesnât matter, you tell yourself. You hadnât really known her. It doesnât matter. Thereâs no real difference, it doesnât matter.
Itâs okay, itâs okay, it never really mattered. You keep telling yourself this as you walk back over to the memorial. As you lay your flowers down with the others, the little posies are dwarfed by the other donations. It didnât matter. You didnât know her. None of this matters. Their flowers donât matter.
You donât matter. You hit that errant thought with a mental fly swatter.
Exhausted, you sit down next to the monument. You used to be able to lay your head on the stone, able to feel your family in the warmth it had absorbed in the sun. Now you just sort of, awkwardly reached out to the small bit of uncovered plinth at the side. You have to stick your hand through a wreath to do so.
Itâs not warm. You wonder if your family are sad. And then you wonder if youâre an idiot for attributing feelings to a literal rock.
After a while, you get up. Cross your arms. You stare at your family's portraits, eyes moving over their smiles. One by one. You recognise some of the photographs, those are your favourites. A smile cracks across your face when you see the picture of when Chasey lost her two front teeth. She still grins cheekily at the camera, uncaring for any changes to her appearance, as all kids shouldnât.
Your shoulders fall just the slightest bit when you see the picture of Jason Todd. Itâs one of his older pictures. Probably seventeen or something. Heâd always been a lovely boy when he was younger. And he still was up till he died but youâd always thought youâd seen something start to change in him. That sparkle of innocence, dulled, just the slightest.
And then heâd died. And youâd wondered if maybe heâd felt it was coming.
You certainly hadnât. It had been like a hurricane tearing through your life. Youâd ended up on the other side completely abandoned, the only friend whoâd bothered to keep seeing you being one whoâd learnt to dodge train ticket costs like a damn ninja. And youâd had to decide whether you could keep doing this, whether you even wanted to.
You were an obsessive creature by nurture. It had been all you could do to hang onto the Waynes, pretend they would love and care for you even if theyâd have never even noticed you in real life. You werenât sure that was strength or simple human survival. Dying was scary. Of course, you were scared of dying.
Your whole family had died. So, you told yourself, that Jason Fucking Todd would be sad if you killed yourself, and somehow, you had made it all these years.
And now here you were, and the Waynes did notice you in real life. You were important to them. You didnât want to be, but you were. And again, you have to ask yourself, what would Jason Todd ask of you? What would he want you to do now, in this impossible situation youâve found yourself in?
You stare at the picture. Stare at the way the sun hits his dark hair and blue eyes. Stare very, very hard. Like he might crawl out and give you a detailed list of what to do. Youâd really like a detailed list. Or any guidance at all. Maybe you could go hit up a seance or something.
Your head falls forward into your sun-warmed palms. This is so stupid. No answers are going to fall from the sky, you need to find them yourself. And youâre not going to find them here.
Someone walks up beside you to the old memorial, and you quickly tuck yourself back into an acceptable image. Fold in all the rough edges you can. A tall and well-built man, with a face mask, sunglasses and a trucker hat, he looks like he could be a celebrity or something. Someone important, much more than you.
And you werenât, not technically, at least. The universe had done the equivalent of a shelving error, and now here you goddamn were.
He does an odd pose next to you, something military-esque, where he clasps his hands together and bows his head. With a quick flick of your eyes you confirm, yes, his feet are equal with his shoulders. Itâs obvious that heâs paying his respects so you do your best not to judge him too hard.
And then he speaks to you.
âIâm sorry.â
You look up, startled and confused.
âFor your loss,â the deep voice finishes, jerking his head toward the pictures in front of the two of you.
âWha- oh uh, um,â you blink and then realise that this person has recognised you, which would make sense since you are literally in one of the photos in front of you, and manage to pull your fading conscious mind back together for a moment more.
âThank you, uh-â you stare at him a moment longer, âYou too?â
Almost worse than that time you told the barista who gave you your coffee you hoped she enjoyed hers too, but not quite. Well, you know, heâd probably lost someone here too. You donât know why heâd be here otherwise unless he wanted an autograph or something. The thought almost makes you laugh.
He snorts at your words. You donât know what to make of that.
He looks back down at the pictures and flowers. You think he does, at least, from the slight shifting of his head. Heâs kind of mysterious. Pair that with the deep voice, the muscular and tall physique, and youâre an odd mix of attracted and socially anxious. Not that youâre not always socially anxious, but this guy feels⊠strong. Dumb again, you can see his biceps from here butâŠ
You just canât quite shake it off. Strong. Strong.
âThey didnât deserve it, none of them did,â he speaks again, and you wonder what the fuck heâs going on about at all.
You admit, you sound a little bitter when you mutter, âWell, thatâs obvious.â
He lets out a bark of laughter, and you see his eyes flash to you from under his sunglasses. A shade of blue. Thereâs another odd pause, and then he turns to you. You donât know why heâs looking at you. He crosses his arms, and seems to size you up.
âWhat are you doing here?â he asks you like he knows you.
Your brow furrows. Okay, kind of losing any hotness points here. Bothering someone who was grieving couldâve been seen as rude from the very start, but youâd just thought he was weird. Now, you thought he was weird and rude.
ââŠPaying my respects. Obviously,â you gesture downwards, âMy mother, my siblings, andâŠâ
Well, how would you describe the relationship between you and Jason Todd now? He was still just a stranger to you and-
âWith who, that guy?â
Now, it isnât often that youâre stunned into silence, but at the moment you canât find it in you to do anything but stare and gape. Frankly, youâre astonished! Youâve never met anyone who spoke so rudely of the dead, and well, he couldnât have picked a worse person to do it in front of.
âExcuse me?â your voice canât seem to convey even half of your offence, even as you sound like youâre about ready to bite a second person for today. The man pauses like youâve surprised him, which- what the fuck is going on? Why do you feel like an alien crash-landed on Earth these days?
âNo, I just meant-â he huffs, shakes his head, and continues, his voice now offended too, âWhat the fuck am I saying? Yes, I did mean that. That little twerp was a naive idiot who was manipulated by the people he believed in most.â
You stare, absolutely speechless, as the stranger goes on a damn-fucking-near crazed rant about one of the people most important to you. Never met? Sure. Dead as hell? Absolutely. But still, he was one of your lifelines. Your candlelight in the dark, guiding your way even when you felt completely lost. And now heâs calling him a naive idiot? You can practically feel the steam coming out of your ears.
âHe changed nothing, made no difference in the end-â
âNothing?!â you practically shriek, finally able to find your voice just to use it to shout, âHe changed⊠so much! He donated millions of dollars, did heaps of charity work, was practically a treasure to our city⊠He made multiple homeless shelters, an orphanage, helped rehabilitate criminals and countless other things.â
Your fists are clenched tight enough that they shake. You hide them behind your back, but you still feel like he can probably see them. Your emotions are simmering too close to the surface, bubbling over and onto the floor. About to burn his sneakers to ash.
âYou seem like you care a lot,â he says, sounding reserved.
âOf course, I care.â
ââŠItâs just, you didnât seem the type, on the TV,â he keeps talking, poking at you for some god-awful reason, and you bark out a harsh laugh.
âMaybe people need to stop making so many fucking assumptions, then? It certainly hasnât gotten you anywhere,â you throw your hands up, damn sick of all the constant fucking surveillance youâre under. You can see why this version of you lost her mind. Youâre near about to as well.
He stares at you for a moment longer, and you start feeling too uncomfortable. Itâs a stupid and useless protectiveness that has you staying. Like heâll somehow try and harm the shrine to your people. Itâs happened before, Joker fanboys defacing it and such. This guy could be one of those bastards.
And yet⊠somehow you feelâŠ
âIâll keep that in mind,â he finally says.
âGood, you do that.â
âBut in the end, nothingâs really changed. Jokerâs still out and about, as you well know.â
You physically flinch like youâve been slapped. For a good minute there, all you can do is stare at him in disbelief. You raise one shaking fist, and lift one trembling finger, pointing. The man looks in the direction youâve pointed, and when he doesnât see anything, turns back to you. His sunglasses reflect the grey afternoon sun.
âGo,â you order, voice shaking just like the rest of you.
He just keeps staring at you. You wish heâd take off those dumb fucking glasses, so you could see this assholeâs face. Etch it into your mind. He doesnât move, doesnât say anything, doesnât take any action. He simply waits for you to⊠Well, you donât know what youâll do. You havenât known what youâd do since you left Dick behind two hours ago.
âYou need to go,â you say again, and again, he doesnât fucking move, âYou⊠thereâs⊠you have no right.â
You can hear the buzz of the city around you, the wind rushing by. His clothes rustle in the wind. Your voice sounds too loud in your ears, but he wonât just⊠he wonât leave. You donât want this stranger here, watching you. Judging you. Itâs allâŠ
âJason didnât do anything wrong,â you say, and you think to yourself, desperately, âI didnât do anything wrong.â
Thereâs a slight shift in the strangerâs posture. His shoulders tensed.
You think youâve offended him.
âThe Joker⊠Thatâs nobody's fault but the government for not just sucking it up and giving him the death penalty, or Batmanâs for not doing it himself a long time ago. Theyâre all fucking useless, but theyâre the ones who are supposed to be dealing with this!â you continue, your words growing more heated. Itâs only the already looming threat of an assault case that keeps you from shoving the guy. Not like youâd be able to move him an inch, of course, he was huge.
Youâre sure it would feel good, though.
âIt was never some random teenager's responsibility, and it wasn't mine either,â you say, but find yourself pausing for a moment when you hear the end of your sentence. It doesnât matter. Itâs not like it wasnât obvious anyway.
Youâd tied yourself and Jason up together in your head. To you, you were both two sides of the same coin. One foot in the grave. Youâve got one foot in the graveâŠ
âJason Todd was a good person, and he made the world a better place.â
You look down at the portrait of the boy, his toothy smile twisting at your heart. None of this was fair. None of this had ever been fair. Why was this guy acting like anybody here had ever been able to do anything about it? Like Jason shouldâve been smarter, and avoided a fucking bomb blast?
It was stupid. This was stupid, and you were over it. You were tired.
âAnd I miss him.â
Itâs quiet after you say that.
âI donât know how you can think itâs fair to act like his death was pointless when⊠of course it was, all of this was pointless,â you say, throwing your hands wide and gesturing to the entire memorial. âThis was a tragedy, but Jason was a victim. And Iâm sick of people like you who think they can decide whether someone elseâs life was lived right. Itâs not your damn right.â
âNow⊠fuck off!â you announce, and to your shock, he does. He fucks right off. The man gives you one last lingering look, and then turns and leaves without another word. Not like you needed them.
You huff out a shocked breath, and then turn back to the memorial.
The framed faces of your loved ones stare back at you, and for all you know itâs stupid, you canât help but feel embarrassed for the display. You know your mother wouldâve scolded you for your language, at least.
âSorry,â you say, and youâre unfortunately reminded of that irritating man again. Likely that wonât be the first time he pops up again in your head. He seemed well, insane. Which wasnât that odd in Gotham but⊠god, you just couldnât seem to let it go.
It pissed you off to high heaven. His rudeness was something youâd usually be able to shrug off, especially from some random stranger, but, but, but-! Argh, damn it all. And it wasnât like that was the first time you had had that sort of conversation, but it was certainly the first time someone had been so bold as to bring it up in front of your dead motherâs smiling face.
Earlier today had snuffed out the fire in you, but that encounter had been the spark to reignite it. More than that, actually. It had made you so damn pissed, made your blood boil in a way you just couldnât ignore, to the point that you wanted to prove him wrong.
Jason Todd had mattered and had made a difference and change in Gotham. He had made a change in you. You put your hands on your hips, stare down at the flowers, and make a decision.
Youâre going to fix your goddamn life. For Jason Fucking Todd.
Your body feels like shit, your brain feels like itâs stuffed with cotton wool, and yet this is the greatest opportunity youâve ever been given. You have a chance to save yourself, and save your friends, and fix all the tiny little problems in Gotham that youâve suffered through since childhood. Surely just throwing enough money at all your problems would fix some of them.
You were rich. If you couldnât fix your life with millions of dollars available, then you had no chance.
And yeah, you donât know what youâre doing. You know you canât really change what happened. Back then or even just a few days ago. But you hate that. You hate it so much. You hate how weak you are in the face of loss. How both then and now, thereâs nothing you can really do. And maybe if just out of spite, towards that asshat, Batman, Joker and everyone else, you want to make a change.
You want to be able to do something about it. You want it, so fucking bad.
First order of business?
âŠYou want more flowers.

marriage hcs with mithrun and kabru? im a huge sucker for domestic stuff lol
Ya!!
2,500 words
Dungeon Meshi Spoilers âŒïžâïž
no tw I donât think
âË. à ËââŠË.ËâŠâË à§ .Ëâ
âĄïž Mithrun âĄïž
Mithrunâs proposal isnât big. He just slips the ring on your finger and tells you itâs happening.
He wouldnât care what the wedding is like, just tell him where to be and when. Though if you insist on his opinion heâll tell you that something simple would be most comfortable.
I wonder if thereâs like a formal outfit for the Canaries⊠Or elven wedding garbs. Idk!
If you have a reception and you force him to dance, then you get to see Mithrunâs nobility training in effect! He can waltz!
He ends up throwing the bouquet because reasons but he just straight up launches it into Pattadolâs face.
Anyway, onto home life. Mithrun actually cleans a lot, just out of habit. So you donât have a messy husband, yay!
But he doesnât care much about decorating his surroundings. Youâre the one who fixes up the house how you like it.
He teleports around the house but heâs very careful to always know where you are. He often sneaks up on you, not on purpose at first. After a while he starts sneaking up on you because your reactions are funny.
Every good couple finds ways to torment each other. It keeps the romance alive.
Mithrun puts his cold fingers and feet on you in bed. He does it with a straight face but you see the evil intent in his eyeâŠ
You reorganize on a regular basis, and sometimes move all the furniture two inches to the left. You do this when heâs gone and honestly he doesnât notice until he starts running into things without explanation.
Mithrun is a very touchy person with you. And only with you. Nobody else.
He wraps his arms around you from behind a lot. He kisses your neck. He buries his face in your hair. And heâll do it anywhere, this man does not care who sees.
People new to Melini hear about the fearsome, dangerous, cold Captain of the Canaries. And when they hear he has a spouse theyâre like ??oh??
Then they see him cuddling you. His face is blank but heâs holding you tight, closing his eyes as he rests his head on yours. And they wonder if this is the fearsome guy they heard about.
Marriage looks good on Mithrun. He never thought heâd get married, ever. But he craves your company, he wants you around all the time, he wants every inch of your attention. Your affectionate smiles should be only for him. And he has no problem telling you that youâre his and your attention should be on him.
I mean, youâre one of the few desires he has. Heâs going to soak up every bit of you, inject you in his bloodstream, graft you into the fabric of his soul. Heâs not going to say that, but itâs true.
My guilty pleasure is making Mithrun into an obsessive partner, but thatâs honestly just my headcanon/preference and not something I would insist is canon to his character.
Obsessive as in following you around like a lost puppy, always finding some way to touch you, overwhelming attraction, getting a bit irritable when youâre away, being very possessive, etc. But then again, thatâs just my preference talking.
At night, he holds you like he thinks youâre about to disappear.
You cast sleep spells to help him rest at night or else heâll be awake for hours and hours until his body gives out.
Mithrun likes being the little spoon, even if youâre smaller than him. But he also likes being the big spoon sometimes. #switch
You think cooking together will be sweet and fun, right? Wrong. Itâs horrible. The first time you try to cook together you just keep bumping into each other, getting in the way, picking up things and setting them down somewhere and forgetting where that was. It gets a bit tense.
You donât cook together again.
Mithrun actually likes cooking and will probably want to take turns making the food. Except his food is crap at first. Total shit. Heâll learn.
When Mithrun is irritated or mad at you gives you the silent treatment. Heâs grumpy. Heâll mutter under his breath a little. Just love on him until he softens up. Wrap your arms around him from behind and harass him a bit.
Speaking of harassment, Mithrun does that all the time. Youâve got some paperwork or whatever that youâre working on? Well he wants your attention. Right now. And heâs going to get it.
You just see him walk into the room with that look in his eye, his pupils focused, his mouth set in a line. And you groan because you know heâs about to do everything in his power to distract you.
That means flopping down like a rag doll in your lap. Or kissing your neck, biting a bit. His hands are going places. He wonât outright say he wants attention, but itâs clear he wants it.
Then the moment you actually give him attention, he gets up and wanders away.
He steals the blankets at night, but fortunately does not spread out much.
I feel like Mithrun would have a bunch of weird hobbies. Heâs just throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks. Thereâs pottery, of course. But thatâs kind of messy. He makes really dumb bowls too. Idk, theyâre just dumb looking bowls.
He takes up gardening. But one time he didnât realize he was getting too hot and he kinda collapsed face first into the squash patch. He tasted dirt that day. It was fine.
He tried knitting! He makes a horrible little stuffed pig and sends it to Milsiril. She doesnât respond with a thank you letter or anything. She hides it in a box in her attic so she doesnât have to look at it.
Mithrun isnât concerned with being good at these things, heâs just doing them to do them. King behavior
I think youâd both eventually adopt a pet. And by adopt I mean Mithrun found this dog digging through the trash and brought it home.
You share each otherâs clothes a lot. It doesnât matter how small or big you are, Mithrun is pulling on your sweater and drowning in the scent of you. He also likes seeing you in his clothes! I imagine he wears tall-man clothes half the time tbh, idk I just like Mithrun in baggy flowy tunics that are rolled up at the arms⊠But elf clothes physically fit him better because heâs so smol.
Generally, your life is peaceful. You might go with him on monster surveys, or help at the noodle shop. Youâre a team, you move in sync with each other, able to tell what the other is thinking just from a look.
Often around other people, you and Mithrun silently communicate through passing glances.
He never takes his ring off. Never. He gets grumpy if you take yours off.
Mithrunâs brother likes to visit. I headcanon that his brother has a family by now (UNCLE MITHRUN!!!) and they all love you. (One night heâs putting his niece or nephew to bed and theyâre like âuncle Mithrun, the hat man doesnât like youâ and heâs like ..okay. Thank you for letting me know.)
You two have a routine! Mithrun lives by routine anyway, so you quickly follow and do your daily things. Itâs not boring though because youâre happy to be doing them together.
Life is calm and heâs content. Itâs so much more than he ever thought heâd get. Heâs going to savor every second.
âĄïž Kabru âĄïž
Kabruâs proposal is simple and intimate, but he makes sure to do things right. He tells you to meet him at a certain spot and that youâre âgoing shoppingâ for something. But lol no heâs proposing
Except of course something goes terribly wrong and Kabru is left a stressed out mess and wants to redo the whole thing. But tough luck buddy, youâve already accepted. He sighs and furrows his brows and smiles, giving you that look that tells the world just how he feels. Itâs soft and adoring and so in love.
Kabru is involved in the wedding planning for every step of the way. Heâs almost a bit controlling with it.
He knows so many people that the guest list quickly reaches the hundreds.
Eventually Kabru gives up and you two plan to have something small and private instead. Which is a relief, because with something private he wonât feel the need to mask himself the entire time, to play the part.
Heâs so! Excited! To see you in your wedding clothes!
Heâs actually a bit gushy about it. Like heâs trying to hide his excitement. He puts his hand over his mouth to hide his smile, but his eyes are wide and heâs all riled up.
At the reception you honestly just sit in the corner together and whisper all night. For once he doesnât intend on using this opportunity to gain information or insight.
Onto home life! Maybe for a tiny bit, you two live in his little room? Just until you get a house.
His landlord teases constantly.
Once you do get a place to stay, he actually doesnât care about decorating all that much. Heâs got stuff though, books and notebooks and random things heâs gathered over the years.
Kabru is a mess. He isnât gross, but heâs unorganized and kinda just tosses his clothes on the floor. He leaves drawers open, and cabinets open.
He sleeps spread out, limbs everywhere. He drools sometimes. He makes you promise to not tell anyone that ever.
Kabru doesnât cook. Heâll attempt it for you, though. Heâll try a lot of new things for you. He tries to eat more, to sleep more, and actually take care of himself. He knows youâd like that.
Kabru is pretty social. He keeps you up to date on every little endeavor he has going on. You have a routine of going to this restaurant or tavern frequently and heâll lean in close to you and whisper about the people.
That guy over there? Heâs got some information on this. Kabruâs going to buy him a drink.
This isnât as effective as it was before Melini became a nation, though, when he was just an adventurer on the island. Because now Kabru is the Kingâs advisor and people are a little intimidated by him.
This frustrates him. When you get home and sit on the couch, heâll lay his head in your lap or wrap his arms around your waist and complain. He likes being the advisor, but he doesnât like how people think heâs intimidating and royal or important.
You visit Kabru at the castle often! Hell, maybe you even live in the castle with him! Idk how that works.
He has a lot of stuffy meetings with diplomats and important people, and youâll often be on his arm. Galas, parties, dinners. Itâs kind of exhausting. But Kabru loves every minute of it. Heâs got you next to him, and heâs got the Kahka Brud diplomat tipsy enough to openly discuss the Queenâs affair with a servant. Itâs so great.
You also share a lot of knowing looks with Kabru. When Laois does something Laois-y, you just look at each other.
Kabru isnât much for PDA, he cares about whoâs watching and what they think. Heâs actually a little paranoid that people might find a way to use you against him. So heâs constantly planting these little ideas in peopleâs heads, about what might happen if anyone messed with you⊠Itâs more subtle than Iâm able to exemplify but you get the point.
Your husband has a room dedicated to his thoughts. His sherlock holmes mind palace.
Itâs actually just a dark room where he puts pictures of people on the walls and connects them all with red yarn. You walk in with a lamp and he just flinches and squints at the light. Little freak.
He will talk your ear off, explaining each and every thought he has in his little web. Actually, doing that helps him sort things out and come to realizations!
He likes sitting on the floor with you in his lap, his arms around your waist. Idk heâs just the kind of guy to sit on the floor and stare at the wall in deep thought.
Kabru doesnât really get mad at you. He gets very concerned if you do something reckless and might look a bit frustrated on the outside, but he generally keeps his cool and speaks respectfully.
He can be a bit snarky though.
Different from most couples, you donât terrorize each other that much. You might terrorize him, but he doesnât do that. Kabru doesnât do pranks or cute little revenge things. Kabruâs idea of terrorizing someone is slowly gaslighting them into insanity over the years. He wonât do that to you, obviously.
He never takes his ring off! Heâs hurt if you take yours off.
He dances a lot with you when youâre alone. Heâll come up behind you and wrap his arms around your waist and sway a little. Heâll grab your hand and your hip and spin you around the kitchen. Thereâs no music, he doesnât need it. He just wants to see you laugh.
If you make horrible crappy food heâll still eat it. He hesitates to tell you itâs bad. Itâs only when you insist on his opinion that heâll admit itâs shit. (But he does so nicely)
Wear his clothes. Please. Please wear his clothes, it drives him crazy. Youâll be the death of him.
Yâall are weird, you match each others freaks. He adores your quirks and hobbies and is genuinely interested in learning about everything.
Seriously. He wants to know everything. Every thought that passes through your pretty head, every inch of you, every beat of your heart. He explores your body a lot. He worships you.
Kabru never thought heâd get married, actually. Not that he was opposed to the idea, he just wasnât considering it until he met you. Heâs extremely loyal, though, and youâre stuck with him forever. He reminds you of that often.
He keeps a mental list of people who have flirted with you or checked you out. He has his eye on them.
Kabru likes being the little spoon!
He likes bathing with you, washing your hair. Itâs just intimate for him.
Your evenings are spent talking about everything and nothing. And heâs not digging for info, heâs just enjoying himself.
He likes to watch you sleep sometimes. Donât ask why, just let him do his thing.
Milsiril visits often. Sheâs a relatively chill mother in law, if not a bit clingy. But she wonât just cling to Kabru, sheâll cling to you too (after you prove your worth)
Milsiril unfortunately shows up without warning sometimes, and her timing is horrible. Itâs usually when you and Kabru are kissing and your hands are everywhere and youâre being gently laid on the bed andâ
Oh thereâs elf mom.
He gets embarrassed with her. She tells a lot of stories she thinks are cute. Kabru does not think theyâre cute.
Once she leaves thereâs a huge sigh of relief.
Kabru speaks other languages to you sometimes, but he refuses to tell you what heâs said.
Life with Kabru is interesting! Youâre always busy. Youâve always got something going on. But itâs those moments when youâre in bed together, when your limbs are tangled in the dark, that he treasures the most.

â how f1 boys would act when crushing on someone.
Ë â LANDO NORRIS
tries to become your best-friend. and makes sure everyone knows you two are close. actually plays it cool but secretly thinks of you 24/7. tries to deny his feelings and puts himself in the friend-zone so that it hurts less when and if you do. sometimes, his eyes subconsciously drop to your lips when talking to you. always invites you to hang-outs with his friends and unintentionally ends up ignoring or forgetting everyone else and mostly just talks to you or sticks with you. always tries to match your pace when walking together.
Ë â DANIEL RICCIARDO
casually flirts with you a lot but does so in a joking or playful manner. slow to realize his feelings but doesnât bother hiding it once he does. goes out of his way to spend time with you and talk to you. so many little touches like slight brushes of the fingertips, a light rub of shoulders, or a game of footsie under the table. is endearingly protective over you and defends you a lot. asks you to text or call him when you get home, or often offers to walk you home himself. unknowingly smiles so big while texting you and lowkey gets embarrassed when someone points it out or when he notices his own reflection in his phone screen.
Ë â CARLOS SAINZ
looks at you like you must be protected at all costs, but also admires you and thinks highly of you. notices your little quirks and habits, and finds them cute. wants your opinion on things because he cares about what you think. wants to be updated about your life and keeps you updated about his. lots of eye contact. soft yet deep and intense gazes. unintentionally becoming more goofy and energetic around you. smiling uncontrollably when someone mentions your name or when he gets teased about his crush on you. always picking you first for his team when playing games with friends.
Ë â CHARLES LECLERC
is actually timid about liking you, and tries to teat you like just another friend because he doesnât want to be too obvious. does subtle things like tagging you in funny posts, or remembering your favorite cake flavor and buying you one on your birthday. throws surprise parties or celebrations for you â your birthday? surprise! you just finished your exams? surprise, again! sends you memes and tiktok videos at 3 a.m. his words are neutral but his body language shows his feelings; canât look at you directly without getting slightly flustered, especially when youâre in public or when surrounded by friends. sometimes becomes tongue-tied in the most adorable way when talking to you.
Ë â LEWIS HAMILTON
becomes more talkative and tends to ask a lot of questions about you. he tries not to overdo it but heâs just genuinely curious and interested. tries to find excuses to hold your hand; subtly grasping your hand just a little longer after a high-five or asks for your hand so that he can âread your palmâ or compares hand sizes for the hundredth time. lingering gazes and touches when youâre around people. always buys you little snacks that you like. if you just casually makes a comment about how a certain color looks great on him, he remembers that and wears that color even more around you.
Ë â OSCAR PIASTRI
more smiley around you but is also generally chill. always tries to initiate conversations with you and keeps it flowing. heâs slow to realize his feelings, so his friends are more likely to notice it first. loves to tease you and loves it even more when you tease back. the type that probably wonât look away when you make contact but also gets flustered and a little annoyed when someone interrupts the moment. initiates hang-outs with just the two of you and likes to take you to his favorite spots, but claims that itâs not a date unless you want it to be.
Ë â MAX VERSTAPPEN
enjoys teasing you, but in a good-natured way; pinches your cheeks and ruffles your hair; steals the last piece of chips from you, only to buy you a whole new bag afterwards. showers you with compliments and also likes to help you with things â basically becomes your cheerleader and personal assistant. his voice or tone changes when talking to you, like he might be mad at someone and talking to them in an angry tone but as soon as he turns to speak to you, his voice becomes softer and sweeter. stalks your social media because youâre so beautiful and he canât get enough of you. and he always comments on your posts, even if itâs a provocative comment, but heâs always there.

hey, I could ask the royal boys (Leona, Kalim and Malleus) with the male reader who is already the king of his country, like the boys thought he was a prince like them, but then on any given day he lets out a complaint how difficult it is to govern the kingdom and study for exams at the same time, sometimes he just wanted to be the prince and not the king.
characters: leona, kalim and malleus x king!male reader
tags: platonic, canon compliant, fluff, imagines + scenario format
warnings: a little bit of negativity towards reader in leona's part, a bit of swearing in kalim's
author's notes: loving all the male reader requests rn. i think i strayed a bit from the prompt but i hope you like it anyway <3
Leona Kingscholar
Though being a prince himself, heâs not as âdiplomaticâ with the other princes at that school - except for you probably. No donât ask him what happened, heâs ready to accept it as it is
At least because of your (assumed) status, he finds it easier to communicate with you; at least youâre not one of the top five most powerful mages in the world or the most optimistic person in Twisted Wonderland
Hangouts with him still consist more of silent chilling though; both of you just need to get away from it all for a while
He doesnât question the days that youâre gone - sometimes people just end up needing you to do this and that. He tries not to dwell on it too much, lest his inferiority complex gets the best of him
Until one day, you come back after one day of absence, which is normal enough until-
â*sigh* I swear, being king is less appealing as my retainers make it sound, especially since I also have to go to school all the while.â
Iâm sorry, being what now?
He knew you were royalty, that much he got from everyone whispering about you back when you enrolled and since you made little mention of your background, he just assumed you were a prince like him
You let out a tired chuckle then and comment on how you forgot that you never told him youâre an actual king of a nation
He has mixed feelings over this - he thought he finally met someone a little bit like him, yet youâre just another one of them and you never bothered telling him who you are?
But donât worry, he gets over his feelings of betrayal after a while; itâs not like the reveal changed who you are as a person. Youâre still the same guy who heâs been hanging out with and he knows his brain is trying to defend itself
You apologize for not telling him sooner and despite your complaints, you try not to sound ungrateful, especially considering his issues
At some point, even Leona himself starts to forget about that fact
It doesnât matter if you carry a whole nation on your shoulders because - and he will never say this out loud - he knows youâre capable and if you start to crumble, heâll be there for you.
Kalim Al-Asim
Though heâs not one to really care about someoneâs social status, heâs happy to have more royal friends
Doesnât stop him from spoiling you. Havenât you heard? Any friends of Kalim are also friends of his many, many fortunes
He invites you over to Scarabia for parties every so often and either you are surrounded by people or everyone leaves you alone out of intimidation
But hey, if the latter happens, Kalim is more than happy to help you make some friends (unless youâre uncomfortable with it of course but heâll still try to help)
One time, at one of his many parties, you two were simply laughing over something and it reminded you of something-
âThat makes me think of the time this creature took a shit on my throne back at home - it took a few days for the stench to fade!â
Oh, of course, your throne! Everyone totally has a literal throne back home! Until Kalim realizes that is, in fact, untrue
As if he wasnât already excited at the prospect of a new friend, he gets more excited at the fact that you have your own throne and is, he concludes, a monarch
You brush him off, light pink decorating your cheeks, saying that itâs not really that special - and you mean it
You tell him of the experience and you couldnât help slip in a few complaints; it isnât easy to juggle both school and royal responsibilities at the same time
He only listens in and tries his best to understand; he is no king, and though he is a housewarden and a prince, your struggles differ from his by a long mile
From that day on, he makes sure to check in on you and if youâre feeling less than, heâll drop everything and do anything to relieve you of your stress
When he drops by your nation and your palace, he brings in a whole parade. Itâs so Kalim that you can only laugh
You knew that story about a creature shitting on your throne was gonna be a good story at parties.
Malleus Draconia
Your presence is an absolute delight to him; it didnât occur to him to ask what kind of royalty you are but it didnât matter either way
He finds himself more comfortable talking about his heritage around you, knowing that you can somewhat relate to being of nobility
If youâre not part of his club, sometimes you tag along on his gargoyle crusades for the hell of it - seeing him so passionate about something brings a smile to your face
On one of your many escapades, he points out a gargoyle and begins to ramble about its features
Hearing it suddenly makes you remember-
âAh gosh, I just remembered I should be back home right now, some of my people will be coming over to construct some gargoyles around my castle.â
He doesnât question it at first but then the phrase âmy peopleâ registered in his mind. Wait, what do you mean your people?
You start to apologize for not telling him and also the fact that you have to leave that very moment
After you came back after the whole ordeal, you sit him down somewhere and tell him about your position
As mentioned, it doesnât matter to him what responsibilities you have, as long as you can be his friend
You breathe out a sigh of relief and invite him to continue where you two left off last time
Nothing changes much between you two, except for the fact that you share more of your kingly experiences
He definitely drops by your place at least once - he could never miss out a chance on seeing some new gargoyles
And as he looks on at those beautiful waterspouts, you canât help but be grateful that they can serve as a source of happiness for someone too.

5 facts you maybe didnât know abt alfons bc his route is coming (no major spoilers)
at some point after entering the greetia household, he changed his way of speaking. this is especially prominent in the japanese version, when he goes from the more casual or âcrudeâ way of speaking all the way to keigo (or âpoliteâ language). the gap between his polite language and the actual words that comes out of his mouth is part of his humor thats especially prominent in japanese, and a may be bit lost in translation in english.
he is really good at cooking. this is shown in his profile, but he does not show off this skill often. he only shows this skill twice in the entire history of ikevil so far. once in his main story, and once in his second birthday story. so enjoy those moments when you run into them!
in the japanese version, he uses honorifics with everyone (including kate), except one person. and that person is elbie. he calls everyone by the âsan honorific, including kate, and he still does even after they get into a relationship. he calls william and victor with âsama, probably because by all rights, they are his bosses. the fact he doesnât use honorifics with elbie unless he is playing a role or feels like it, in which case he may use âsama (he seemingly switches on a whim using âlord elbert,â âlord elbie,â âelbie,â and âelbertâ). the fact he doesnât use honorifics with elbie indicates a very close relationship, as doing such (in japanese, this is known as [ćŒăłæšăŠ], or yobisute) with those who youâre not close to can be considered incredibly rude.
his last name, sylvatica, means forget-me-not (the flower). specifically, it comes from its scientific name, myosotis sylvatica, and it bears the symbol of remembrance, coming to symbolize various events and people, along with a symbol for alzheimerâs in some regions. since the olden times, it has also been a symbol of true, everlasting love and devotion. this is the surname alfons chose for himself sort of on a whim supposedly. it is unknown if he himself chose the name while aware of its meaning (and thus was trying to convey his wishes through it), though considering he was surrounded by forget-me-nots in a scene during elbieâs route, it may be a reflection of something deeper on the storytellerâs end.
despite his attitude and all appearances, he grows attached to others very easily. this is pretty evident in his past records with elbie, and even rogerâs past records. he canât really bring himself to separate from elbie and when he has thought about it, he initiated a game with him instead of just leaving. and also he was quite drawn to roger at one point in his life. even now, roger does have a place in his mind at least (i have the story regarding this point translated here if youâre curious, but note this is jp only content as of this post). and even with kate, itâs evident that since the beginning, he didnât want to leave her alone. even before he realizes his own feelings, heâs pretty drawn to her and actually thinks of her as âcute,â âadorableâ or âdarling.â and even in other routes, especially elbie and rogerâs, he seems to show at least some attraction toward kate. so donât let his facade fool you that much!
10 things you should know before you read alfons route.

âż âż ă skz as boyfriends
â° pairings: bf!skz x gn!reader
â° genre: tooth rotting fluff, romance
â° warnings: none
â° word count: 1.6k + words
ౚâৠchan
chan feels like the type of boyfriend to buy you coffee whenever you need, and heâs the type of guy to always remind you to have your vitamins. itâs weird really, how a person knows you so inside out. chan knows very well that you have the habit of forgetting things, so he makes you to-do lists with cute stickers and emojis and sticks it on the refrigerator so that itâs easily visible. he always has an arm around your waist, or holding your wrist gently in crowded places so that the two of you donât get separated. chan didnât know when this started, but you noticed it. he now has a habit of patting the side of your bed to check if youâre asleep or not. he takes you out to library dates since he knows your unhealthy obsession with books. man is so whipped for you! if he sees something resembling even 1% heâs gonna stare at it for hours and shyly giggle. the members found his lovesick behaviour amusing. theyâd often tease him for hours and all chan could do was scratch his neck and look away with a deeply flushed face. heâs also the type of boyfriend to tie your shoe lace, and smile lovingly at you after heâs done. heâd probably adjust your hair when your hands are too busy and even offers to help you in your skincare! he is THE boyfriend.
ౚâৠminho
minho has a habit of communicating through blinks. the two of you are often surrounded with silence but your eyesâ they say more than enough. minho doesnât know why but he loves squishing your cheeks. he giggles after squishing your cheeks and would peck your lips before pulling away with a smug smile. when he comes home tired he just lays his head on your lap and then hugs your waist tightly. to him, skinship means a lot. wherever he is, he doesnât forget to cup your cheeks and stare at you lovingly. after a long day, heâd let you keep your head on his shoulder in the bus and would even wrap an arm around you protectively. even when heâs with his cats he tells them about you. about how he loves you so much or where he sees the two of you in the near future. and honestly itâs so cute. the way his eyes practically shine along with that fond smile makes you realise how whipped this man is. another thing minho loves doing is watch you react to his performances. he finds your reactions amusing and loves when you pay more attention to his fancams. heâs had those dances memorised so heâd rather pay attention to you. would hide his face in your neck when you compliment him too much. and this would later turn into a pillow fight. itâs moments with minho that you canât help but replay. each second with him is special.
ౚâৠchangbin
the type of boyfriend to randomly start rapping about you in the middle of the kitchen. itâs amazing how he comes up with ideas so quick. you and changbin have this thing of getting ready together in the morning. the two of you brush your teeth at the same and would do each otherâs skin care through soft giggles and kisses. another thing is that the two of you are gym rats. would help each other in completing bench presses and motivate while doing reps. even though the two of you would be sweaty, heâll kiss your cheek for a long minute and would pull away with the brightest grin. days with changbin would never be boring. heâd make you laugh your ass off till you have tears in your eyes. the two of you cook dinner together and itâs something you both enjoy. feeding each other slices of vegetables, grabbing things from the upper shelf since you canât reach it or simply the eye contacts you make frequently. changbin loves your hugs. heâd throw the two of you on the couch and would lay on top of you with his hands wrapped around your body as the two of you binge watch kdramas. itâs cute. so damn cute.
ౚâৠhyunjin
he is literally the most romantic person iâve ever seen. wherever the two of you go, he always has either his phone out or the camera. heâd click thousands of pictures of you doing literally nothing, from the goofy ones to the aesthetic ones he has it all. he literally has more pictures of you than you do. heâd save the last slice of you and you would do the same. the two of you would laugh it off and split that slice in half, and heâd still give the larger piece to you. hyunjin and you just cuddle when you meet. no matter what the time is, cuddling is important!! heâd tuck your hair behind you ear and would stare at you for long periods of time doing nothing just studying your features. the next thing you know is that he drew a portrait of you. one so beautiful that had you in literal tears. before sleeping, the two of you would be entangled in each otherâs arms and would read books to each taking turns on alternate days. hyunjin has a habit of purposely leaving his clothes in your wardrobe. he just loves it when you wear his clothes or smell like him, it makes him wonder how he got so lucky. he is literally a man written by a woman. would hold the door for you, draw chair for you, never raise his voice at you, kiss you giving silly excuses and flirt with you 24/7. this is what dating hyunjin feels like, and you couldnât have gotten any happier.
ౚâৠhan
the goofball duo. constant teasing, playing around and being chaotic announces the start of your days. he loves being attentive and would observe every little thing of you, would match steps with you when you walk, would hug you from the back and sway the two of you gently on random mornings when he wakes up, would pepper your face with kisses and compliment you aggressively telling you how much he loves you. when the two of you go outside, heâs like a whole new person. he would constantly check on you to see if youâre comfortable or not. he would insist on eating where you wanted and would oblige by carrying your shopping bags. would randomly make faces during serious making it hard to not crack up. during cold days, his bag would be filled with scarfs, water bottles, snacks, moisturisers, lip balms and what not? but theyâre all for you. he thinks about you more than he thinks of himself, and maybe itâs just his habit but it always makes your heart flutter.
ౚâৠfelix
the literal tiktok boyfriend. would 100% post you on his stories, just hiding your face since he knows the there are many weird people online. would drag you outside and twirl you as it rains. eventually, he would kiss you lovingly and passionately. loves matching clothes with you and would purposely pick out the clothes when the two of you go out on dates. maybe itâs just a felix thing, but he grew so accustomed to certain people that he started copying the little actions they do. like tapping his fingers against your thigh, laughing way too hard at your jokes since he now finds your lame humour funny and giving you an extra piece of his brownie saying itâs because he loves you a little extra. hugs and kisses are meant for him. he detects your mood in a minute and acts accordingly. letting you rest on his lap when youâre tired, tickling you hard when you feel low or just simply taking you in his arms and staying like that. he loves you so much. and he isnât afraid to show it.
ౚâৠseungmin
the type of boyfriend to start dissing anything you like. if youâre playing a game heâll make you lose focus by speaking too much. if youâre eating something heâll side eye you but then proceeds to grab a bite and tell you that itâs good. would purposely match shoes together. he thinks itâs cute as the two of you match when you walk together. he has a stash of chocolates for you every other week, and keeps refilling it saying chocolates improve your mood. would brag you to the members saying you made his favourite today or you gave him a gift or just randomly when he thinks of you too much. when he sees you teasing one of his members, he has a proud smile on his face as if he taught you well. when you hurt your knee, heâd give you disney band aids saying theyâre magical and it heals faster. yeah, he does believe that stuff and then he would kiss it better.
ౚâৠjeongin
best boi. he loves you so much that he has playlists dedicated to you. he even made you a 365 day note jar with small words of affirmations, pickup lines, jokes and what not! suppose you cooked something for him and it turns out to be a bit too salty heâll lie with a wide smile because he doesnât want to hurt you ): would take you out on arcade dates pretty often since the two of you loved games! but. . . the two of you are so competitive that it turns into a sulky day but he makes it up by giving you three sips of his milkshake. happy you, happy jeongin!

ok. masking. letâs go.
[plain text: ok. masking. letâs go]
(specifically masking in autism - there probably other disabilities this can apply to but no guarantees. so only write what know, aka autism)
to simply it a bit, personally see two part to masking:
1. ability to mask
2. whatever struggle/thing, can be masked
1. ability to mask
it a skill that depends on many other skills
think most people will able see it as ability to suppress behavior & instead do something else (to appear more âsocially appropriateâ). like stop body from stim & instead sit very still. stop self from say something that may be rude or blunt n instead say it in more indirect way or say compliment instead. n it true, that is ability to mask
but ability to mask also depend on many other more basic skills, n because it basic, sometimes people forget they actually skill & others struggle with it, n instead see it as given, as nature, almost take for granted. before can do the thing in previous paragraph, other skills need have:
awareness of self - that you exist, awareness of what you doing
(n if able aware, also the ability control what you doing & impulse)
awareness of others - that they exist, that they have thoughts you not see
awareness of surroundings - that, you not just in own world
n, if have all of that, understand âneedâ or feel need or pressure for masking. at least some conscious or subconscious idea or feeling about what supposed to do & what not supposed to do. n ability to remember it. ability act on it. (all related but separate skills.) some autistic not able explicitly name it or tell you, but have internal sense of âthis feels wrong even though donât know why,â & that still allow them to mask
n many others am forgetting at moment
2. whatever struggle/thing, can be masked
think people forget about this part often: that even if assume have expert ability to mask (#1), there some things that. just canât be masked (at all, or cannot mask all of it). because they (for not have better word) so extreme, or simply cannot control
for example. there no way really mask fact am nonverbal (as in, cannot mouth talk at all. all the time). no matter what do, cannot just. mask n suddenly say mouth word (then wouldnât be nonverbal).
n say this simplify because. real world much more muddy more nuanced than can be say in clear linear bullet points n equations. some times, is mixture of both. not that clear divide.
many level 3 / severe / whatever language they use for self / etc people, move their body all the time, make sounds all the time, grunts screams etc. not really able control it, because very significant sensory needs that come with their level 3 autism. n not able to control it, not know to control it. sometimes both.
or, like awareness of other people - if not able to, then canât mask it (#2). but it also prerequisite skill to masking to appear more âsocially appropriateâ, so cannot mask if donât have skill (#1).
*
so, get annoyed when level 1 (& sometimes 2) high masking autistics say difference between them n someone like me (cannot mask & level 2/3 nonverbal), just masking. that if they unmask,
masking often really negatively affect mental health. make you stressed, on edge, confused about who you are (it actually me or just my mask?). n sometimes it become so a part of you you cannot drop it. yes. and same time true:
B1. masking is protective. is coping mechanism. is for safety. or else wouldnât start do it first place. you mask n spend that energy n put up with its cost because feel like on some level, would not be treat as well or with as much dignity & autonomy, will be bullied n hurt even more than already is. n for some (especially BIPOC), masking literal one of reason they alive, not wrongly convicted or suspected of crime because suspicious behavior, etc. something can be both protective & harm. it up to you decide if it worth it.
B2. high masking not always mean other people not able tell. high masking not mean you treated well all time or not get treated badly at all or not go through anything said in above paragraph. it just mean that. you would probably be treated even worse if not masking.
B3. ability choose to unmask (yes, even if hard), not same as not able mask at all (involuntary not a choice) in first place. able switch between mask n unmask, even more so. you at advantage some of us not have.
B4. like in B1, not everyone can afford unmask. n for every person like that, imagine there someone in similar situation, except they cannot mask (reason #1 or #2 or both). what will happen to them? what happens to them? what happened to them?
no, you wouldnât be like us (who unable mask in first place because level 2/3 autism, high support needs, severe autism, whatever language we use) if you unmasked.
there also difference between unmasking & finding your authentic self & how you naturally act. n pretend to be like us, copying us, someone you not, by choosing to do stereotypically visibly autistic things because it make you feel more validated. that no different than mocking n faking. we not your cosplay. (yes this actually happens.)
n no, donât mean anytime you hand flap youâre copying mocking visibly autistic people, or you picking up AAC device âeven if you can speakâ (but you struggle) is copying nonverbal people. understand this is process, that sometimes when mask so long not know what feel natural anymore who you are or arenât anymore, so you pick up n experiment different things.
fundamentally, is it helping you? that should stay. is it make you become another person you arenât, going in opposite extreme direction? that shouldnât.
*
anyway.
a lot time you see people who not able mask, we level 2/3 / moderate & severe autism / higher support needs (etc language we choose for self), which make us not able do both #1 & 2 (both not have ability to mask, n have struggles that cannot be masked fully or at all). struggling with more âbasicâ stuff needed for masking like awareness of self others n surrounding, often happen together with other symptoms n struggles that too big or significant or severe to mask.
this why you rarely if ever see anyone like listed above who also appear high masking â even if we can mask, our struggles often too significant to be fully masked over. n many of us canât mask, we not have prerequisite skills to mask
but, not all people who not able mask are higher level higher support needs higher severity.
sometimes some people may have some masking abilities (have some #1), but have struggles that cannot be fully masked (#2).
sometimes, they have struggles that many other high masking autistics can mask (have #2), but they have low or no masking abilities themselves (donât have #1).
AKAâ
not able mask =/= not always mean higher level higher support needs higher severity autism
lower support needs level 1 autistics =/= not always equal high masking
there lower support needs autistics level 1 autistics who low or no masking!
masking ability not always correlate with levels & support needs & severity!
wow that long winded. glad we got back to where started.
[do not debate severe autism & autism levels etc language we choosing for ourselves - if you donât like it for yourself cool then am not talking about you]

TOMB FOR TWO
Rockstar Leon S. Kennedy x model reader | AO3 18+ MDNI. smut, female reader, drugs and alcohol addiction implied, Leon is scumbag i guess, blowjob, use of coke, deepthroat i guess, dirty talk. tags: @ivmp words: 2,934
notes: so.... dont do drugs/alcohol and idk i feel like i need to clarify, some stuff here i heard in real life directly from insufferable men, so don't interract with such kind of people for ur own good.
Leon loves ladies, he was always the kind of man who loved every woman, if she was attractive enough to his taste of course. Also, he considered himself a nice guy, but a lot of girls didnât get him. It got a lot worse when he cheated on his ex-girlfriend, after that nasty breakup and a slap he received, it felt like she had put a curse on him. Maybe he is cursed, it would explain why his attempts to form established relationships always failed. At least the passion for music was always with him, no matter how hard it was for him and it has helped indeed him in many areas; gaining more ego and becoming finally a rockstar, which certainly has helped him find lovers to warm his bed.
In his mind, he has already created his own list of preferences, models were always a big ânoâ cause pretty dolls in the majority were the most annoying ones in his honest and âhumbleâ opinion. A lot of them are anorectic, and Leon doesnât need a girl whose only hard thing in her mouth would have been his dick. Also, pretty women are usually really intimidating and have high standards, he doesnât want to risk a possible denial. Cool guys donât get hurt.
But that list didnât help him at all, it didnât prevent him from getting involved with you so quickly. A model and you looked sick for his tastes, dark circles under your eyes and lack of any vivid light in them too. He put two and two together, probably you did often drugs and he didnât know which ones, he never asked. Your first appearance was at one of the events where his band performed and you were bored to death, gaze leaped around the surroundings, trying to find something more interesting to linger on than whatever this place is. Your pupils were dilated as hell and your jaw was tensed, making those useless movements and biting inside of your cheeks. He didnât give much thought and he was drunk already while your fingertips were tracing his jaw and a sparkle in your eyes was enough for him. And after all, you agreed to come with him. His expectations werenât high, another quick one-night stand he would forget about, but after stepping into his apartment you got sick. Vomiting in his toilet until it became quiet and he decided to check, after all, he is a good guy, really. And he doesnât need a corpse in his flat. Pulling your hair to tilt your face towards him and witness your exhausted expression; your lips parted with saliva glistening on them and circles under your half-lidded eyes got more evident and darker. All this combined led to him having the hardest boner he has ever had.
Your presence in his life only gave him a boner and a headache, also an urge to strangle and shake you like a doll, but he never had enough strength to leave you behind and forget everything related to you. He tried, his mind would fill with thoughts about you, leading to jerk off a lot when he is sober and not recording music. His drunk ass would always crawl back to you, after feeling your eyes on him everywhere even when he was smoking out of a bar. Those billboards with your face, promoting some products and looking ethereal, without sickness all over your face, feeling your gaze as if it was only directed towards him. Those photos were the reasons his legs always lead him to your place, finding you already hammered as much as he is, if not worse, more than happy to let him spill his load in your mouth or pussy. After all, Leon is a simple man, not a romantic one, romanticism has died within him after that âundeservedâ slap.
Needles were a big ânoâ for you, explaining they can leave marks and they are scary, also those are used by drug-addicted people which you believed you arenât. After all, you like them thanks to your dear and generous friend who shares them with you. While Leon was an old-fashioned man, he has always preferred booze, even after finding himself in weird situations without any memories, only with pain pulsing in his head and hangover. You didnât understand that at all, it has never brought you any good sensations, also alcohol has a distinct smell you have always hated and there is nothing sexy about it. Thatâs why Leon was always simple in your eyes, a rockstar with little to no existent layers in his personality; one hand with the bottle and the other one on his dick. In the end, both can destroy many lives.
Of course, whatever you both had going on gave you the possibility to visit his concerts without spending a penny. Leon has never asked if you like his music though, but still, he believes it is good, after all, there wouldnât be a big female fanbase over anything? So there was never a thought behind his eyes to consider your tastes. Besides, you didnât attend often, always brushing off your runway shows to which he was never invited. Not like he needed to be there, but still it made him feel a little bit bitter. Other reasons were similar to âI donât want toâ and if to be honest, this isnât a valid reason for his calls to be ignored.
This time you didnât have other options, nor Leon would let you skip his performance. Soon understanding it was a mistake, you shouldnât be here, cause during the entire concert his attention was drifting in between his music and you, trying to find you among many women. Every time he notices you not listening to the sound the instruments create, it fills him with bitterness and annoyance. Time passed slowly, finally finishing performance and emptying his flask quickly. He was tempted to leave you alone, to not give any warning, and get another girl from the crowd, but also this would be risky for a lot of reasons; first, he doesnât have any condoms, and second, groupies are annoying and he doesnât want to deal with them for a quick fuck today. The only solution he came across was to leave this place earlier and push you into his car.
The ride is okay, the only noise is some music coming from the car stereo. He twitched a little bit with the switch before, but he didnât really listen to whatever was on until he recognized his own song. A nice touch. âYour music sucksâ you say, breaking the silence which was only filled with his voice coming from the radio. This is new for you, music is his job, and what does a model know about it? His face turns to look at you for a brief moment, he is driving and he doesnât want to get himself killed cause of you. âIt doesnât.â Leon protests quickly, but your voice interrupts him again, making him groan and want to stop the car. To strangle you. People love him! His groupies would be green with envy if they ever got to know about you. âIt doesâ you say, resting your chin on the palm of your hand and looking through the window before rolling it down and letting fresh air coming in. The wind noise is ear beating, enough to give him a headache, nor does it help with his mood right now. Bashing noise to his ears, but you donât care. Your voice fills the room, too bad it is loud enough to catch on and it is not mixed with the sound of the wind. The road is dark, and it is already hard to drive after consuming alcohol, but your voice makes this worse. âYour music never changes, mundane, same melody. Boring even, and generic. I donât like itâ
Then you stay silent, Leonâs mind is buzzing with only two thoughts in it: what a bitch you are, how he wants to shut you up with his dick and he needs to calm down, to let off steam. Thatâs three or four though. Math wasnât his forte.
He pulled over his car, almost stumbling over from it as the chilly night breeze hit his face, filling his lungs. Refreshing and sobering in some way. It is dark, he didnât even notice how he moved to your side and opened the door, looking down at your face with a blank stare, while his slow mind keeps processing your words. You shift on the seat of the car to face him with a raised eyebrow, looking so annoyed and confused by his attitude. Leon isnât sure why he was hurt by your words, but this look was not new for him; every time a sentence would leave his mouth, your face would express an annoyance as if he just said the dumbest thing possible. You are probably just trying to mess with him and this always made him hornier, his cock would start stiffening in his jeans and even this isnât an exception, like one of Pavlovâs dogs he is. Or this is just alcohol talking.
The inside of the car enlightens your features and it is maybe the only thing so bright in such a dark spot right now of the road. His index finger brushes over your lower lip, tracing the contour of soft flesh beneath his thickened skin after years of playing guitar. He canât help but stare at your mouth, admiring the lipstick on it, looking clean and emphasizing the shape of your lips. Too bad his digit smeared the color a little bit over the form. You donât notice that thank God, cause he doesnât need another comment from you. Silence makes you much prettier. Your hand reaches for his thigh, brushing over the inner part and the annoyance in your gaze quickly changes to interest as it slowly travels down to the bulge which started to form already. Leon doesnât know what magic you use on him, cause it is much easier to get even half-hard dick with you, while the majority of girls would waste his time and then cry about not being able to turn him on. He blamed this trouble on them, not on his best friend (booze). To not waste much time, you tuck out his cock from his pants.
Your fingers envelop his half-hard length, before stroking, spitting a mouthful of your saliva down on it. Spreading over the hardened skin with a quick and easy motion of your hand, your touch lingers on the spot below its tip which makes him groan lowly. His fingers tangle in your strands, pulling your face closer to his cock as a silent plea to sink your mouth down around him.
âDonât play, come on,â Leon says, not noticing how his voice got hoarse. âGive it a kiss, dollâ In the past, you would be annoyed at his words, but tonight you donât mind, enjoying how pretty he is when he wants to shove his dick down your throat. Your lips press against his tip and kiss around it, teasing him and licking away precum, finally bobbing your head down. The warm and wet heat of your mouth envelops his cock, your tongue flicks along the shaft. Leon can feel himself getting harder and his hips buck back in response, letting quiet groans. But the bliss didnât last a lot, you pop out his cock and slap it against your tongue, rubbing against your lips while keeping eye contact with his eyes. The sight is dirty, lipstick leaves its color on his wet and throbbing dick, intensifying the moment.
Until he noticed there was something under your silver sequin top, that caught his gaze only now. But also he doesnât know what it may be, wondering silently and fixating on your chest. Or he is just seeing things, until your hand slightly lowers the edge of fabric to take the bag with white powder, satisfying his curiosity. The timing made him frown, almost convincing himself you could read his mind. But also, what should he have expected? Boobs would be nice, actually.
He isnât going to deny a pleasure to see them. Thatâs why his hands reach for the edge of the fabric, pulling down to expose your breasts, nipples get harder at the contact with the cold air of the night. His fingers knead soft flesh, thumb and index pinch nipples to evoke your moans out, observing your face change even for a brief moment because of him until you slap away his hands. It was nice while it lasted. He watches how you make a thin white line on his cock, almost dripping some on your skirt, and letting a curse fall from your lips. If to be honest, this is his first time seeing you doing drugs in front of him. Also, there are too many ways to consume Coke, he heard about how some women shove it in their vagina, but he isnât sure if this is true. You lean down and snort it away with an âahâ leaving your lips, while rubbing your nose and blinking messily, trying to shake off some tears forming on your waterline. He was tempted to try, but you donât share.
âFuck, that was hotâ Leon comments, letting a low whistle. Your hand pumps his cock in a steady rhythm.
The little pause was over, with a giggle and lightened expression on your face, coke does wonders. Your mouth starts giving kisses, before sucking on the tip more eagerly than before, and your tongue swirls in a circular motion around it. For a brief moment, you shift to the underside too by flicking over that sensitive spot, making his hips buck, pushing your head deeper to sink you down along the length. You can feel more saliva pooling in your mouth, slobbering over his cock now, and spit drips down onto his balls. The Coke has its visible influence now, dilated pupils are directed into his blue eyes, keeping eye contact. He knows that state of yours, being happy and confident to do anything, clinging and not letting him go away until powderâs effects donât start to weaken. Your heart is beating loudly in your ears, not hearing those loud suction noises your mouth does which he adores. Leonâs fingers tighten his grip on your hair, tugging and pushing your head deeper, his tip kissing your throat and he groans, while your nose rubs against his happy trail. Your jaw is more relaxed, taking him deeply and you try to swallow the excess of saliva and his precum, so your throat tightens around his cock, he can feel you choking on his now twitching arousal. It is useless, you can feel saliva dripping not only on his sac now, but also from the corners of your mouth down to your collarbone. Leon pulls your head away before slamming with quick motion his hips against your face again. His cock is slick with your saliva, sloppily moving out and back into your mouth, constant stimulation of your tongue flicking against his head and at the base made his balls tighten signaling that his orgasm is approaching. Initially, his own moans are breathless, slowly starting to increase in volume, as he took more control in his own hands. His movements are erratic, the sight of your teary expensive mascara and lipstick ruined by him and leaving marks on his cock is one of many reasons to be alive, he thinks.
âDo you see yourself right now, huh?â He moans, shaking his head with disbelief, as you keep sucking him off sloppily, making more wet sounds that intensify and fill the air between you both. His voice is at the edge of quiet whine, needy moans reach your ears. âYeah, thatâs it, all you have to do is let my cock just slide in and out of your pretty mouth, dollâ
He slams his hips for the last time burying his cock deep into your throat, the head grinds before twitching for a last time spurting out a load of cum. His fingers grip tighter, almost painfully, not letting you pull away and spit it out, swallowing the bitterness that fills your senses, making you gag more. The booze diet isnât the best one. He lets you pull away, your tongue for the last time brushed his tip and he stands still, his breathing is unsteady and chaotic, while you wipe away the remaining saliva from your skin.
âSoâŠ.â Leon interrupts the silence between them, he is speaking without giving too much thought, and he quickly pauses for a second, trying to organize a decent sentence. âWhat about⊠something formal? Between us I meanâ Your eyes donât even linger on his face after his question, the so-known-annoyance returns to your face and you pull down the sun visor to fix your makeup. âEw, noâ your voice expresses disgust at the thought of being more than just a quick hookup, you roll your eyes as your thumb cleans the smear of your lipstick. Your nose twitches still, even if the effect of the drug starts to lessen. âI donât like you like thatâ âIt was a joke,â he brushes off quickly, feeling his own body recovering from orgasm and wanting to get away from you, so the bitterness and disappointment would not irk him so much. âFor Godâs sake, smile at least.â
Story of his life, nothing new.

Ok so...
Twice now iâve seen people approach @elsa-fogen about a take that is âAlastor is in hell because of Voodooâ (the latest one basically saying he is in hell solemnly because of Voodooâ) and I canât help but feel thereâs reeks of religious intolerance from his take (even if itâs not intentional) cause letâs not forget, Voodoo is a religion (main one in places such as Haiti and Gana), and itâs often stigmatised and viewed through the wrong light. So you all can understand how a take like this could rub someone the wrong way and be deemed as religious intolerance.
But as I know this fandom is PAINFULLY stubborn and probably will want to keep exploring this take even if it makes some people uncomfortable (take the people who refuse to acknowledge Alastor as aro and the people who refuse to stop calling Alastor a wendigo for instance) I would like to offer an alternative take:Â
See, Iâm not from Voodoo and itâs not that big of a religion here in Brazil, however, we do have two other religions here that are similar/derivatives from Voodoo (CandomblĂ© and Umbanda) and face similar prejudices, so Iâm making this based mostly on these two but know that it also applies to Voodoo.Â
In Umbanda, we have a higher god, the OrixĂĄs (entities that provide guidance and protection) and we have spirits, these spirits divide in different groups and offer advices and guidance to all types of people, there are spirits that look after women, children, grieving parents and even the lost (such as drug addicts).
But as we have good spirits, we also have bad ones. they are popularly known as âespiritos de porcoâ (pig spirits) who are usually mischievous and even ill intended spirits that might loom over you if they feel a bad energy coming from you or if you are spiritually unprotected and they will start to cause you misfortune and even make you feel weak and sick.
Some ill-intended people use these bad spirits against people they want to harm, the bad spirits may guide them in performing a ritual or maybe the spirit will loom on this targeted person.Â
Itâs (partly) due to people like this that these religions have such bad reputation, but these people basically perform their religion in a corrupted way! Umbanda is a religion that connects you with nature and guides you spiritually, itâs deeply connected with healing practises (mentally, physically and spiritually), but as I said, like EVERY other religion, it can be corrupted and used to harm.
I think the best use of âcorrupt vs proper use of religionâ Iâve seen comes from Disney's The Princess and the Frog. People usually remember Dr Facilier better, who used Voodoo against his enemies and to harvest power (much like a certain deer man we all know and love) but we also had Mama Odie (which is a real figure in voodoo, mind you. Also present in Umbanda, a Mama Odie is sort of a priestess of the religion) notice how she is a much more accurate representation of the religion, she lives in contact with nature, she performs her rituals and prayers in the wide while dancing with a very positive energy around, and she wears white (which is the most recommended colour to wear during rituals, as itâs a neutral colour and pleases all OrixĂĄs).Â
So as you can see, thereâs good voodoo practicants and bad ones, and in the end itâs all about how you use your religion, if you use it as you were taught, with pure intentions, seeking guidance and protection of good spirits and OrixĂĄs, or in a corrupt way, surrounding yourself with bad spirits and helping them spread their bad energy.Â
So what I am hoping with all this is is that people put a stop to âAlastor is evil because he uses Voodooâ and adopt the âAlastor is evil because he does malpractice of Voodooâ which is a much more accurate to reality and respectful take.Â
Iâd even like to offer a headcanon of my own:Â
That Alastor's mom was from Voodoo (maybe even was a Mama Odie herself) and taught Alastor all she knew and he corrupted her teachings and started using them for evil (perhaps even to aid him in his killing) and THAT, that corruption, was what sent him to hell, and true redemption for him would not to give up his powers/forsake his religion but actually to go back to his roots and use his powers for good (perhaps in a way that he ends up healing/saving someone (hopefully Charlie or Rosie)đ
#tw religious intolerance#religious intolerance#voodoo#umbanda#candomblé#alastor#alastor hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel#<- please don't be extremely stubborn about this take#I'm BEGGING you#the princess and the frog#mama odie#dr facilier

Astrology observations #2
-people who lack an element in their chart really do surround themselves with a lot of people in said element. for example, my friend lacks earth and has at least 4 friends who are earth sun signs
-some capricorns really can't get along with leos, but they are attracted to sag and aries placements. they can't help it
-mars in the 1st house get sexualised a lot, to the point it gets too much for some people..especially women. these people are also very ambitious. even when going through tough times, they never lose sight from their goals
-mercury in aquarius have a unique humor. the same goes for mercury in the 11th.
-virgo mercury pay attention to details, esp when they like you..the things they remember and gifts they give you, shows how thoughtful they are
- fire signs/houses..please tell me that you've been told at least once that you talk too loud. i have aries mercury and my friend mercury in the 9th and we both had a revelation that we talk too loud lmao
-well-developed capricorns are such sweethearts. they are reasonable and grounded, but they are also so funny and charming. they may appear as if they have everything under control at all times, but they're just like the rest of us
-water signs have the craziest dreams i swearđsome can sound like scenes from a movie, fantasy and/or horror
-moon in the 5th house/leo think about themselves a lot and take things personally. they think everything is about them. on the other hand, they have the biggest hearts and they want to make everyone they love happy. can you blame them tho for wanting to feel like a main character
-when you want to ease your mind, talk to someone who has a sagittarius mercury and they will cheer you up
-having an empty 7th house might mean that you don't have much, if any, relationship experience. you probably give good relationship advice though
-aquarius/11th house placements have their own strong moral code. they can usually hide their feelings well, but if they realise someone is being intolerant towards others and mean, they'll get really emotional. they want the world to be a better place, and get frustrated when they see how many people don't care
-capricorn placements may have really complex relationship with their parents. they often expect too much from their kids, and since they prove that they can endure almost everything, the parents don't loosen their grip. they need to know their worth and forget about the expectations!
-mercury retrograde can really cause communication issues for people. it is difficult for these people to express how they feel and stand up to others. but, it does get better with time!
-aries and taurus placements combo in a man can be very dark imo, they are often players. they also have huge ego problems. i dislike emphasizing only the darker parts of people, so i have to admit that these placements, if well-developed, can be very loyal and passionate especially with people they love. they are also incredibly hard-working and focused, it's really admirable.
-be careful when dealing with men that have virgo and libra placements in their chart. some may be romantic and attentive, while others can nitpick your every flaw and can have ridiculously high standards. they can cheat and lie easily as well
-sagittarius venus love adventure, having a partner who doesn't know how to have fun and explore things is a big turn off to them. they can make compromises for their more serious partners, but if they can't reciprocate the same effort, it's not going to work
-cancer risings seem very approachable and kind. their eyes are usually big and curious, almost childlike
-this has been said many times, but venus in the 1st individuals truly are beautiful. there is also something different and captivating in their beauty, they stand out wherever they go
-saturn in the 3rd house/gemini may indicate that a person faced speech/writing difficulties when they were young, or they continue to struggle with it
-pisces moons tend to forget things and their memory can betray them at times. as a pisces moon, i think that's because we are in our heads too much and we remember how we felt about things, not the words and actions. we also struggle with being present 100% of the time, so we perhaps didn't listen to you in the first place (i'm sorry)
take this with a grain of salt, since i only read about astrology in my free time!đ

Hello, hope you're having a good day/night
I was wondering if I could request the 141 x Male reader, they know alot of medical like they use their knowledge of the human body against anyone whom threatens them (or people the care about). They aren't a medic are doctor parday but have extensive knowledge of the field that helps the team. Seem cold uncaring and ruthless but if anyone of them is injured its like a total switch of 'mom bear mode' checking them over the gentle hands and worry.
(Kinda of trope of don't mess with the doctor lol)
Summary: TF 141 reacts to Reader who knows a frightening amount of medical knowledge.
Note: I'm going to do this as more of a headcanons type of post ^^ hope this is good enough! ^^ I did 95% of this all in the last 2 hours
Content: Medical speak, Injuries, Slight Torture, Slightly Bad Medical Research, But I Did Research. Roach Talks.
Word Count: 1085
TF 141 x Knowledgeable in Medic Field M! Reader
Ghost
Probably first heard about your knowledge from Soap talking to him about how terrifying it is to see it come into play
Doesn't believe him.
You've always been good at what you do but have never shown any previous knowledge or interest in the medical field so, who can blame him?
There was also no way you could've went to medical school unless you were years above your usual education range
He finally sees it come into play when you two were 'interrogating' someone.
"If you're gonna stab, don't do it right there. Price said he needs to stay alive."
Ghost looks at you, annoyed. "I've stabbed many people and seen many people survive stab wounds of surrounding areas."
"In lower places of the abdomen and with quicker medical care, if you do it there" You point to where he had the knife, pointed at the tied up man's skin. "It could puncture an intestine and we will be fucked. If you want to stab, move the knife below the belly button...about right... right there. Do not remove the knife once it pierces through."
He did as you said, with questions, but still followed your lead.
From then on he watched everything you did, even noticing that you took care of some of the rookies that ended up with minor cuts and damage that wasn't enough to bother the medics with.
Needless to say, he also ended up coming to you for some patch ups, mostly when he wanted to keep his new damage a secret from Price.
He ended up finding it kind of hot during the interrogation thing so he often asked to do things like that with you again.
Soap
Honestly, probably figured out about your medical knowledge after he was being a dumbass with explosives and almost got hurt.
"Go change into some shorts and a tank top." Your voice was in a serious tone as you went to grab a nearby first aid kit.
"Already wanting to see me strip?"
You just glared at him until he actually left and did what was told.
Despite having only a few scratches, you still cleaned them up as best as you could.
You also went on a rant about it too, about how dumb he was
"Do you realize how dumb you are? What if you actually made a big explosion and a piece of shrapnel flew and hit one of the carotid arteries in your neck?
"My What?"
"Do you realize how fast you would've died? Why weren't you wearing any protective gear?"
"I'm pretty bad at forgetting protection."
If looks could kill, he'd be dead.
That was not the last time you had to clean his wounds, he seems to be a magnet for them.
Asks you more about medical stuff, just to get an idea on how much you know.
You know a lot.
Unsure at this point if he hurts himself in new ways just to hear you yell at him for what dumb way he could've gotten himself killed this time.
Gaz
He falls out of helicopters a lot, that's the truth. What's one more time?
This time (and somehow not the last?) he ended up hurting his foot, you were there the whole time when it happened.
When the both of you were both safe in the safety of a van, you got him to put his leg up so you could check it.
"This is stupid" He mutters, "It's nothing more than it has been in the past."
"Shush, let me concentrate" You mutter feeling around his bootless ankle, nodding your head when you hear him hiss at a pointed touch.
"Any pain when you walk on it?"
"Possibly....yes."
"I'm gonna say it's a sprain for now but I think we should take you to the infirmary after we get back to base. Doesn't seem dislocated. Possible fracture though."
It was just a sprain
Was surprised when you spoke fluent...doctor to the doctor.
Honestly felt like a little kid in the doctor's office, watching his parent's converse with the Doctor telling them what was wrong.
Wouldn't have it any other way.
Price
Always knew, almost nothing gets by him unnoticed
Was probably one of the reasons he wanted you on the task force.
He knows how soap and gaz the boys are
Has you teaching rookies how to probably put a tourniquet on.
"What the fuck are you doing? That's not how I taught you."
The rookie you were speaking to just looked down at the dummy that they were working on and the tourniquet, "It looks-"
"Terrible! He's still bleeding out! Retry it."
Definitely has to sit in on these sessions, some rookies have complained to him that you take it too far.
You always just use the excuse that if those were real people and not training dummies, they'd be at fault for letting them die.
He agrees with you.
The rookie looks over at Price.
"Get to it. He told you to retry it. The man is bleeding out."
Mostly just sits in because it's less complaints now that he is showing he agrees with you in front of everyone.
Roach
This fucker needs a friend that has medical knowledge
Much like Soap, it seems like he is a wound magnet
Was probably the first of the 141 that you had to go full protective, medical knowledge out and work on him.
Man's like a tank too, no matter what the day brings to him it seems he's just able to walk it off
You don't let him
"You're limping, sit down."
He just waves it off, "'m good."
"Like hell you are." You walk up to him and grab his wrist, dragging him to a nearby chair and pushing him onto it. "Stay or I'll have Ghost lay on you."
Does not stay.
You cannot get Ghost to lay on him.
You just end up pelting pillows at him until he joins into a pillow fight, and you both end up getting exhausted.
"I'll rest right here."
"Good."
Stubborn but still okay with medical help
Often comes to you with oddly specific questions.
"Hypothetically, if a car blew up in the near vicinity of where I was at, what is the possible health issues that could arise?"
"Well, burn marks obviously, depending on the distance it could be any degree. If it was enough to knock you over, then a possible concussion. Depending if you hit the ground and hard enough, possible broken or fractured bones. Not to even mention the possible pieces of metal and glass flying, and just blast trauma in general. Could cause damage to internal organs with enough force."
"Okay, so...hypothetically, if that happened, I should go to the infirmary?"
"Roach, were you next to a car when it blew up?"
"..."
"Gary???"
You immediately dragged him to the infirmary.

Delirium | T.S
Summary: Thomas pays a last visit to the woman he always had a thing for | dark!AU and đ
A/N: This makes me feel like a nasty hoe, I just wanted to write smut with a Tommy who's obsessed but not violent, if that makes sense đ„Ž
Warning: Tommy being delusionalÂ
The kitchen felt warmer than it probably was, Tommy's presence scared her, especially in moments they were alone.
Of course, her husband's presence wouldn't make a huge difference, he was a humble civilian and Tommy could pull out a gun on him at any moment. She preferred to meet in public spaces, where she'd be able to call for help.
He sat at the table, sipping on his tea with disturbing peace, as if he was the man of the house.
âTommy,â she gulped, leaning on the counter far from him, âmy husband will be home soon, so if you don't have anything to say-â
âI thought I gave this house to you,â he interrupted.
âY-yes, but he lives here too,âÂ
âLucky, ain't he?â he nodded, the glassy look in his eyes scared her, âI gave you this place in consideration for you and the baby and he gets to decide who visits,â
âWe know how lucky we are for having your sympathy,âÂ
âSympathy,â he scoffed.
Lowering her head, she got ready for what seemed to be another one of his episodes. After every single one, she regretted the day she stepped into his family's betting shop looking for a job. After that, she never had peace.
People said after the war Thomas chose to be alone, she saw it differently, he was always surrounded by whores and flirting with the newcomer barmaid. Every now and then, he invited her to dates. Surely he wasn't a man she'd call lonely.
By then, his behavior didn't bother her, Small Heath was full of perverts and womanizers. He was just another one of them until he started to chase her.Â
Even with his aunt's insistence for her to give him a chance, she paid him no mind, thinking Polly only favored her so he'd forget the barmaid who was later revealed to be a cop. Also, she heard he had an affair with his secretary and wooed his horse trainer, all while flirting with her and promising the world if she gave in.Â
When Thomas got married, she swore things would get better, he'd leave her alone and wouldn't be in the betting shop as often. What an awful prevision. In a matter of weeks, he forbade his employees from dating, although she liked to think it was only because of business, she thought the order was way too strict.
Then the worst phase came, widowed Thomas was clingy, forceful, controlling and manipulative. His sad blue eyes would convince her of anything - or almost anything, the bedroom's part, she left for Lizzie - it was when she realized that for him to forget about her, she had to leave him. A new job should be enough.
One day after she resigned, he knocked on her door, asking all the reasons why she wasn't part of the company anymore and promising he'd stop chasing her. What a fool she was for believing. Thomas didn't stop flirting. He only changed his methods. Every week, she'd find a small - or a huge - gift by her desk.
Years went by and she moved on, Thomas became a permanent hurdle she chose to ignore. Nowadays, they were both married and with children, though sometimes he'd still remind her that if she wanted him, he'd be there.
â...do you want to talk?â she asked, perhaps with the death of his daughter he wanted consolation.
âDo I scare you?â
âNo, hm,â she lied, his question surprised her, âa bit, sometimes, but mostly no,âÂ
âIt came to me last night, perhaps I scared you, that's why you never wanted me,âÂ
âTommy-â
âYâknow, some nights- many nights,â he wasn't looking at her, with his distant eyes and head low, she knew it'd be better to let him finish his monolog, âyou were all I thought about, no shovels, no curses, just you, my wife,âÂ
âWhat?â she was shocked, but it didn't matter, he wasn't listening.
âWe'd make love every night before going to sleep and I'd find out everything, what you like, what you don't,â he sighed, âand the rest wouldn't fucking matter, it'd be just you and me,âÂ
Finally, he looked at her waiting for an answer. She, on the other hand, didn't know what to say.
âTommy, perhaps-â she started, âyou know I have much respect for you, but also for Mrs. Shelby and my husband, so perhaps it's time you let go of this infatuation for me,âÂ
âIs this what you think it is? Infatuation?âÂ
âI-â
âSometimes I thought of forcing you,â he confessed, âafter everything I gave you it'd be fair, wouldn't it? To take something back, but that was the problem, I never wanted to fuck you, I wanted you to want me, sounds stupid now, eh?âÂ
âWhy did you come here tonight?â after his speech, she was desperate for him to leave.Â
âTo tell you you'll finally have what you wanted, I won't bother you anymore,â he explained, âI'm sick,â
âWith what?âÂ
âTuberculoma,âÂ
All she did was stare, Thomas Shelby, the man who survived poverty, war and a dangerous career choice was killing himself from inside out. The worst part of her was relieved, the best felt bad for him.
âWhat about your son?â she mumbled.
âHe's in good hands,âÂ
âWell, hm, I'm sorry,â
âAre you?â
Tommy finished his tea in a big gulp. His posture told her his objective wasn't done yet. Of course not, he always had an A on his sleeve.
âThere's another reason why I came here tonight,â he admitted, âI'm gonna ask you something in good faith,âÂ
âYes?â
âGrant me a last wish, all I ever wanted,âÂ
âWhat is it?â she tensed up.
âSleep with me, as if we were husband and wife,â he pleaded, blown out eyes fixed on her.
âWhat?! I can't!âÂ
âWhy not?â
âBecause I'm married! We both are!âÂ
âMe? I'm not anymore,âÂ
âWe can't, Tommy,â
âPlease, not one has to know,â never in her life, she thought she'd see him beg, âfirst and last time,â
Again, she was speechless, guilty for considering giving in to him, but wouldn't it be merciful? Before she decided, he walked to her, cupping her face between his hands.
His lips met her cheek, gently kissing her, she barely believed when he started to smell her. For him, it was the best scent he ever felt.
Squeezing her eyes shut, she allowed him to keep going only to see how far he'd go. His palm was warm and easily covered half her face, his kisses went down her neck, different from what she was used to, her husband was sweet, Tommy was intense, drinking her in like a starving man.
He brought her closer, holding her waist with a strong grip. From that distance, she smelled the lingering cologne underneath the cigarette scent. The warmth from his skin gave her unwanted shivers.
Naively, she rested her hands on his back, it was all he needed to lift her to the counter, sitting her down and standing between her legs. As if she got out of trance, she pushed him away.
âTommy,â she used a leg to create distance, foot well positioned on his chest, âwe can't,âÂ
She expected him to retaliate, his fast breath and dilated eyes made her feel like a prey, he was the predator about to pounce. Instead, he took her foot into his hands, slowly kissing the way up her legs. She had all the time in the world to stop him, but her body froze with his affections.
Once he reached her thigh, Tommy put his head under her skirt, she felt his rough fingers undo her stockings and obliged, lifting her hips for him to pull her panties down.Â
With his breath against her cunt, she held tightly to the counter, the surface was cold in her warm hands. He parted her inner lips with his tongue, making her jump slightly.
The foreign feeling brought excitement to her core, weak moans poured from her lips as Tommy sucked her clit.
Lifting her skirt, she ran a hand through his hair, he lowly hummed, burying his face further between her legs before standing up, starting a greedy kiss.
Through the desperate yearning, he was gentle, cupping her face and giving her little pecks every time she ran out of breath. She took his coat off and held onto him, from his waistcoat texture it must've been extremely expensive.Â
Touching his thin body, few ribs could be counted even if she'd still consider him strong. Tommy started unbuttoning her dress and she stopped him.
âLike man and wife, you said?â
Excitement built in Tommy's chest, she'd be finally his, the idea got him hard as a rock. With a last peck on his lips, she guided him upstairs, avoiding looking at her family pictures. They made her feel bad.
Through the hallway, he stopped and stared at her daughter's bedroom's door, highlighted by the lilac color contrasting with the rest of white ones, âWhat's her name again?âÂ
âAgatha,âÂ
He sighed, picturing a little girl with her eyes, who'd play near the canal with Ruby, Charlie and Duke. She'd watch them from far, the three sweetest girls he ever met, that sounded like heaven, a heaven he'd never reach.
Pulling him to the guest room, she sat him on the bed, the spare, impersonal mattress that'd be ruined by her infidelity. As she straddled his lap, Tommy spread kisses on her chest, her head fell back from pleasure, body warming up to him.
As tempting as melting into his arms was, she wanted to give him an experience, something slow and intimate, between those four walls there was no unreciprocated love or unfaithfulness, only the two of them.Â
She cupped his face and touched their foreheads together, loosening his tie and unbuttoning his waistcoat, âTell me about your day,âÂ
âI'm glad it's already over,â he drawled, hands traveling through her back.
âDid you miss me?â she held a giggle at his unnecessary tie clip, he probably urged to show the world he could afford one.Â
âI-â he gulped when she put the small golden clip between her lips, âdid,âÂ
Fully undressing wasn't sexy like in books she'd read before, she had to stand up and got particularly shy while Tommy watched. However, she managed to get a few chuckles while taking the boots off his feet.
âI can tell,â with him brushing on her thigh, she got rid of his clothing and pushed him down the mattress. His eyes shone at the view of her on top of him, hands gripping on her dress as a silent request to take it off.
Playfully, she threw her last piece of clothing at him, a wool stocking far from being sexy. With a small smile, he pulled her back to bed, climbing on top of her in a swift move. His hands grabbed her waist while his face was buried on her neck, between kisses and bites, she could tell he was overwhelmed.
Wrapping her legs around him, she called his name in a whisper, Tommy lifted his head getting face to face with her and for a moment, it'd be foolish to deny he looked beautiful, lips swollen, hazed eyes and blushy cheeks fitting perfectly into his features.
The gray hair growing on his shaved sides caught her attention, a sign of how long he'd been pinning for her. She had seen him go from bookmaker to member of parliament, from a man who always wore the same three fancy suits to a man who could gift a house and yet, to her, Thomas Shelby was nothing but a pretty painting, something to admire, but never to hold dear. Â
âWhat?â he noticed he was being observed.
âNothing, can't I just look at you?âÂ
He squinted, lightly squeezing her cheeks together. She tensed up, realizing how vulnerable she was lying naked under him.
âTom?â she feared some sudden change of demeanor.
His previous kindness suddenly vanished, Tommy kissed her hungrily and her body betrayed her, surrendering completely, urging to become one with him.
A tiny moan was all to be heard when he slid into her, then the bed started to crackle and the impact of his thrusts mixed with their heavy breaths.Â
She tried to pull his head to her shoulder in an intimate embrace, he didn't let her, holding her hands above her head, âWant to look at you,â
The admission put a smile on her face, besides everything Tommy was sweet, certainly not like she imagined a gangster would be in bed.Â
Between sloppy kisses, he freed one of her hands that she took to his back, his skin was soft, the only bumps were the scars he got in war and business, still, it was nothing she'd consider imperfections, it all added deepness to the artwork he was.
Freeing her other hand, she hugged him closer, the sudden pull disturbed his steady pace and she giggled at the surprised huff he let out.
Tommy Shelby wasn't a man to be vulnerable often, to see him make such noises or show desperate desire was more intimate than all the years she spent with her own husband. She wanted to see more.
The question crossed her lips before she could consider any further consequences, âDo you love me, Tommy?âÂ
He swallowed, gripping on her legs and pounding into her harder, âI do, fuck, I do, I love you,âÂ
Squeezing her eyes shut, her back arched from a consuming orgasm. Tommy's name filled the room in loud moans as her nails sank in his back.
After few more thrusts, he poured inside her. Tommy rested his forehead on hers and they breathed heavily. With mind foggy and his gentle caresses on her head, she didnât hear steps on the other side of the door.
Hard knocks on the door made her freeze inside, Tommy had a tiny smirk on his face while her husband called from outside, âWhat the fuck is going on in there?!âÂ
