MULTI-CHAPTER

ready or knot (est. 24K) : in progress

Todoroki Shouto is so unsettlingly beautiful, you’re certain he has to be an omega. That is, until a chance encounter with a pushy alpha reveals you were incredibly mistaken—and the surprises don’t stop there. Shouto's suddenly mystifying behavior adds another layer of complexity to an already confusing inter-agency investigation. It would be so much easier to figure things out—and suppress your growing feelings—if only Shouto would stop being so strangely attentive to you...

something in the water (est. 24K) : in progress

As a future marine biologist, you’ve scored big on your final internship: a summer in the tropics, researching the waters off the coast of a lush, sunny island. But what you thought would be all beach days and piña coladas turns out to be the revelation of a lifetime when you haul in a handsome merprince, and discover not everything in these waters is quite as it seems.

fingerprints (38K) : complete

When you’re outed as pro hero Shouto’s soulmate on national television, there are really only two sensible things for you to do: blame someone else and run.

vested interest (19.5K) : complete

You’d just thought Shouto was absent minded, accidentally leaving behind a jacket or a sweater or his vest. You didn’t realize this was a thing. (In which Todoroki Shouto—despite his quirk—has zero chill, and uses his clothes to ward off other men.)

if i could keep cool (20K) : complete

A villain attacks Shouto Todoroki’s apartment and kidnaps what he apparently believes to be Todoroki’s secret lover. The bad news—for both you and the villain in question—is that you’re just there to clean the place. That’s how it starts.

[smutty one shot follow on: say the word and you know i'll follow]

Deceiving the Duke (30K) : complete

When Camie Utsushimi elopes on the eve of her society debut, scandal threatens to destroy the family’s prospects. It’s up to you, a lady’s maid, to impersonate Camie throughout the Season, long enough that her elder sister can make a match. The only trouble? Lord Shouto Todoroki is also intent on making a match—and that match, quite impossibly, appears to involve you.

in cinders (25K) : complete

You’re just trying to fairy godmother your best friend into a happily ever after. If only the prince would stop hanging around and cooperate. (A Cinderella AU)

when i make you mine (24K) : complete In order to placate your anxious mother, you agree to return to your hometown to participate in a mating run—knowing full well that betas rarely get chased, never mind betas nearly old enough to age out of the practice. You’ve decided to treat it like a vacation, a chance to visit with your childhood friends, the mating run itself a nice relaxing hike. All in all it’s a solid plan—until alpha Todoroki Shouto, your best friend's little brother, steps in and blows it all to pieces.

conspire (13K) : complete

Shouto Todoroki had definitely only asked you out in order to ward off his horde of interested suitors. So why does he keep actually taking you out on suspiciously realistic dates?

subtle (4.5K) : complete

Someone leaves chocolates on your desk. You’re determined to track down the sender, certain it’s a mistake, and Shouto Todoroki makes himself as unhelpful as possible.

demon prince au (various): ongoing

Things seem to going well with the prince of hell you've accidentally taken home. Until a surprise visitor makes an appearance, and Shouto must take action to stake his claim on you.

just my (blood) type (5.3K)

if you let me (2.2K)

ALAKAZAM! The Mafia's Prison Heist: Part 2 + Part 3

As Joanna and Vidia wage war outside the prison, two MAFIA members slip inside a magical back door...

Starring: @gem-morey @into-the-voyd ...and introducing @static-shockwave to the party!

tw: violence, blood, gore, death

🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 

Right before the alarms in the guard towers went off, a sparkling, teal void opened up in the walk-in refrigerator of Abracadabra Prison.

“Fuck, it’s cold,” hissed Voyd as they stepped through with Gem– Flashover–at their side. The void only hummed gently, spitting off light and energy. Then, as soon as both bodies were through, it shrank rapidly instead of Voyd zipping it tight. That feeling was a weird one– their voids weren’t so much a physical sensation as they were an ever-present idea. Think about one, and like a miracle, a void was born. For one to close without Voyd’s permission– that was like being interrupted in the middle of a sentence. 

Voyd didn’t like it. Fuck this cursed bloody place and its magic-sucking wards, eh? 

They rolled their little charm in between their fingers, the only tool that had let them summon this last backdoor, only open long enough for the two of them to step through. It was spent. Done its job. Still, Voyd just stuck it back into the thin invisible pocket at their hip. No time for mourning their magic. They had a job to do.

The plan was pretty simple: set off a fire in the kitchen somewhere. Seemed like the most likely place for a fire to happen, and it would cause a distraction while Cami let in the others. Voyd shoved open the door, sticking their head out briefly.

“Coast clear. Time to light somethin’ up.”

[talesfromarandomsapphic]

“Thanks. By the way.” Cami playfully nudged her arm with her elbow, effectively bringing her back to reality.

She furrowed her brow and nudged her back, “for what darling?” 

“For walking me home. And for earlier, Fallon has been so…I don't know how to accurately describe it, she's just been…clingy? She only wants me and won't really talk to other people. “ The blonde crossed her arms and began to lightly rub to try and ward off the chill.

Titania paused and drugged off her jacket, carefully dropping it over Cami's shoulders. She moved to stand in front of her so she could adjust the front a bit and make sure the material covered as much of her as it could.

“Oh…um, thanks…again?” She swallowed, turquoise eyes meeting hers.

“My pleasure, on all fronts.” The tribrid chuckled, taking a few steps before turning back and extending her hand 

Cami opened and closed her mouth, but no words seemed to want to come.

So she simply took her hand and started walking again.

A little except from if i can't have love 🥰

When I say Cami and Titania have my entire heart, I'm not even exaggerating.

[yukii0nna]

Malleus no!!

Cami: Dude,No!!! For the last time, you can't make Malori and Alito your little siblings

Malleus: And why not, child of man? As you said, they do not have any family members in the land of the living. And they can't be wards of the guild forever!!.

Cami: They do have a adoptive family you know that right?

Malleus:Still doing it!!

Cami: Dude!!!

Lilia: Now now, Malleus that is not the way to go about seeing them after they leave.

Cami: Thanks man,Mal I know -

Lilia: We simply ask for joint custody.

Malleus: Of course!!!

Cami: Oh man,Fairy Tail and Miles will have its work cut out for it.....

Anjali and Cami's convos>>>>>>>

But the man only stared – for a long moment – before he ran downstairs, breaking through the wards, and throwing himself at her father. SOMEONE FUCKING SEDATE ME BECAUSE I STILL CRY WITH THIS 😭😭

I have said this before and I will say it until I die: We as a society forget how scary and manipulative David can be and that is for shame!!!!

“Arthur,” Kincaid sobbed. “My Arthur-” All this suffering feels homophobic, Dani!! I demand justice!!!

“He cried for eleven days,” I AM A DUMBASS I THOUGHT IT WAS WHEN LANCE WAS BORN AND THE MATH WASN'T MATHING BUT MY MATH IS SHIT SO I JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS IT!

“Maybe he will,” David smiled tiredly. “But at least this time we will die together.” I am a David apologist first and foremost, sorry yall people have to die to not make my baby more sad :))

Max Lightwood-Bane hasn't known peace since I discovered him lmao. My friends think the character you most dislike is the one that gets all the pain and suffering, if they knew it's actually always the favorites LMAO😂😂

apparently, it's a thing to make your favourites suffer lmao I THOUGHT I WAS THE WEIRD ONE.

And yes scary david >>>

Thoughts About OPLA

I like it a lot. It's not perfect, but what is? It's easily the best live-action manga adaptation. The actors are perfect, the effects are excellent, everyone involved clearly loves One Piece, the plot is well-translated, and the changes actually make it more interesting in my opinion. I don't mind the extra gore; in some ways, I feel that it fits this version of One Piece even better that if it was kept similar to the anime/manga. I also like that, unlike Oda, the show has no qualms about killing off minor characters. My only quibble is that, in the future, I'm hoping there are more episodes in a season. There's a lot of One Piece, and there's only so much that can be removed without unbalancing the story.

Random, specific things I like:

The actor who plays Koby. They were practically born for the role and they make the character even more adorable.

Krieg getting killed off. He's easily my least favorite part of the East Blue Saga and him getting axed was rather satisfying.

The bounty posters that show up with various pirates' first appearances. I love the way they look, the fun and slightly intimidating way they blow across the screen, the person with the bounty casually destroying them.

The set design is magnificent.

Helmeppo's bare ass, not as a form of fanservice, but for the sheer WTF-ness of the whole scene. Seeing a single picture of it makes me laugh hysterically. I'm calling it now: That scene is in the top 10 Funniest Scenes in One Piece, if someone will compile that list.

Buggy. Jeff Ward shines as him, they made him surprisingly scary while still foreshadowing his humorous turn, the make-up is wonderful, they got his Devil Fruit right, and I love him the way he looks when Luffy tells him that he can't make people love him.

I like that they showed Mr. 7. I don't know why; I just do.

Inaki (I can't figure out how to add the tilde to his name) is perfect as Luffy. I mean, everyone is perfectly cast, but he stands out. He captures the innate "no brain-cells" look of the character.

Usopp and Kaya becoming officially a couple.

Kaya in general, really.

Stuff I hope to see in future seasons (mostly pre-timeskip, because if I listed everything, this would go on forever):

The Eleven Supernovas. Several of them are some of my favorite One Piece characters, period, so I'm excited by the mere idea. Very specifically, I think that once I see their bounty posters with them in their introductions, I'll expire from bliss. I'm particularly interested in how they'll portray Law, Kid, Killer, and Drake. I think it would be cool if in, I'm guessing season 3 or 4, each episode has a stinger featuring one of them and their crew, with Law being the last. The best part is, if they stick to the eight episode seasons, they'll be able to feature each of them anyway, as Kid and Killer are part of the same crew.

Camie. Hopefully, Hatchan being adapted out doesn't mean she won't show up. She is my all-time favorite minor character, after all.

I can't make up my mind about what the best way to portray Chopper would be. Maybe a combination of all of them?

I can't wait to see Ace!!

With things being bloodier, Marineford is going to be even worse.

[andypantsx3]

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤

Thank you to @itoshisoup @saetyrn9 and @seravphs for the tags!! I am late and so I apologize if I’ve missed any other tags while I was out!!

I want to say I think this is such a cute idea. I am very proud of how hard I’ve worked on my fics, and I am grateful for the chance to give my Andie director's cut lmfao even if I kind of wanted to curl up like a pill bug writing this.

Um, I think in no particular order, these are my top 5 recs of the moment:

Deceiving the Duke | Shouto x Reader

When Camie Utsushimi elopes on the eve of her society debut, scandal threatens to destroy the family’s prospects. It’s up to you, a lady’s maid, to impersonate Camie throughout the Season, long enough that her elder sister can make a match. The only trouble? Lord Shouto Todoroki is also intent on making a match—and that match, quite impossibly, appears to involve you.

I am a huge fan of regency romances and I have incredible respect for them as massive drivers of the romance genre as a whole. So it sort of shocked me when I was talking to Mermie and Cat and we realized we hadn't seen any x Reader regency fics (although I am certain they are out there)!! As much as I love a good pro hero AU (my bread and butter), I really appreciated the chance to try my hand at something that's a little lesser explored in this niche. It's kind of messy in retrospect but I had so much fun working on it that I'll let past Andie off the hook for that.

2. ab intra | Shinsou x Reader

When a wave of disturbing crimes sweep the city, underground hero Hitoshi Shinsou is assigned to work the case with you. What’s even more frustrating than his obnoxious personality is the fact no one will tell you why he’s involved. Things only get more suspicious from there.

This fic was the first time I really sat down and tried my hand at a case fic. I was reading a bunch of Japanese police thrillers at the time, and although my attempt does not measure up, it gave me the tools to understand how to better execute on case fics in the future. Again I really liked trying my hand at something I'm not necessarily good at, because it was fun and I learned a lot. This is probably my most distinct out of all my fics in terms of tone and subject material!!

3. unconventional | Midoriya x Reader

HeroExpo is incredible, and that’s not even counting the really cute hero fanboy you just met. Well, you think he might be cute under that Deku cosplay. It’s hard to tell because it’s really, really good. Like, too good.

I was so nervous to try my hand at Izuku that I actually thought about not publishing this one several times. But this ended up being one of my all-time favorites to write and I get really nostalgic for the time of my life I was in while I was working on this. The fic was so light and fun and such a comfort to write, and to this day I am very touched by how kind people are about Izuku's characterization. It makes me feel really good. 🥺

4. vested interest | Shouto x Reader

You’d just thought Shouto was absent minded, accidentally leaving behind a jacket or a sweater or his vest. You didn’t realize this was a thing. (In which Todoroki Shouto—despite his quirk—has zero chill, and uses his clothes to ward off other men.)

I am probably best known for my Shouto fic if i could keep cool, but vested interest is actually my favorite child!! In retrospect this one is messy too but I had the absolute time of my peddling my little shit Shouto agenda. This fic actually forms the backbone of how I characterize Shouto currently, with just a touch more of spoiled youngest child energy than I had been doing previously. :) Viva la jealous Sho.

5. incendiary | Bakugou x Reader

When you accidentally go viral in defense of quirkless people, an extremist group puts a target on your back. Pro hero Dynamight is the last person you want watching it.

This is the fic I have worked the hardest on and I am very proud of it (and excited to publish the next chapter when I get back)!! This is my only attempt to tackle an issue of real substance and I am very grateful for the perspective I have been given by my sensitivity readers @cat-slippered and @darkenedniqhts.

I also feel really protective over this one as it got plagiarized and slightly rewritten into something that exploded in popularity and massively outstripped this fic. Though handling that situation was uncomfortable, and this feels like a strange thing to say, it was a good ego check for me. It reminded me that I still have a lot of growing to do as a writer if I want my ideas to be unique and memorable enough that a situation like this won't arise again. I will work hard.

[thechaosmuses]

Below the cut you'll find all of my other rp blogs with their @'s and a bit about each one so you can get an idea before you go to their blog.

@madeofhellfire

Full Name; Kailee Elizabeth Holtz Other Names; Kai, Elizabeth, Liz, Holtz, Agent Holtz/Phoenix, Phoenix Age; 26 Species; Mutant/Phoenix Sexuality; Pansexual Zodiac Sign; Sagittarius Face Claim; Megan Fox Universe; MCU About; She was orphaned at 10, bounced around from foster homes until she ran away to Sokovia at 15, volunteered for the Hydra experiments at 17 where she met Pietro, Wanda and Camelia. After being left for dead by Hydra and rescued by Shield she began working for them before becoming an Avenger. She's an extroverted introvert, hotheaded, pretty guarded, sarcastic, and can be quite the flirt.

@thatsokovianspeedster

Full Name; Pietro Django Maximoff Other Names; Piet, Quicksilver, Speedy, Roadrunner, Sokovian Speedster Age; 30 Species; Mutant Sexuality; Bisexual Zodiac Sign; Aquarius Face Claim; Aaron Taylor-Johnson Universe; MCU About; Also orphaned at 10 the twins and their younger sister Camelia spent the next years of their lives in an orphanage until they turned 18, took custody of Cami and left. Not long after they volunteered for the Hydra experiments and the rest is history. Except in this story, Pietro doesn't die. Instead of shielding Clint and the boy, he rushes them to the boat while his sisters and Phoenix took care of Ultron. He's an extrovert through and through though he does like his alone time, very flirty, confident, sarcastic and protective of his girls and those he cares for.

@thesoulofthesea

Full Name; Cordelia Ara Odinsdottir Other Names; Cora, Lia, Ara, Goddess of the Ocean Age; 1400+ Species; Goddess Sexuality; Bisexual Zodiac Sign; Gemini Face Claim; Ashley Benson Universe; MCU About; She was born, along with her twin brother Cedar (one of my darlin' @chaos-awakens oc's) not long after Odin brought Loki to Asgard, most of her upbringing she spent time with all of her brothers, but she's always favored Cedar and Loki. Once they were old enough Lia and Cedar left Asgard and moved to Norway, near the ocean and woods so they could both find a sense of peace. If she's not in Norway she's traveling around visiting the oceans all around the world. She's more of an introvert than anything though still enjoys going out occasionally, very sweet and friendly, also pretty calm unless she's protecting the people she cares about.

@noteviljustbroken

Full Name; Nikolai Nathaniel Novak Other Names; Nik, Niko, Death's Soldier Age; 123 Species; Heretic Super Soldier Sexuality; Bisexual Zodiac Sign; Taurus Face Claim; Daniel Sharman Universe; TVDU to MCU About; Born and raised in Louisiana, grew up okay besides being bullied for being a siphon at least until his mother passed away and his father became abusive. The only thing he had was his best friend Elyza whom he eventually followed into war and turned just like she did, making him a heretic. He also followed her after the war on a ripper spree (her, not him) before she was caught by Marcel. He fled before he could be captured too though he was caught states away by a coven of witches who sent him to another world. It was there after entering a Hydra base that he was turned into a super soldier before fleeing again. Before turning he was way more introverted but now, he's more an extrovert though he does still have his days. He can be impulsive and unpredictable, sometimes dangerously so. As well as super cocky and confident, and he's also a major flirt and extremely charming.

@thelittleredwolf

Full Name; Seraphina Rose Ward Other Names; Ser, Sera, Phina, Rose, Little Red Wolf, Little Red, Red Wolf Age; 27 Species; Tribrid Sexuality; Pansexual Zodiac Sign; Scorpio Face Claim; Madelaine Petsch Universe; TVDU About; Grew up relatively normal, friends with the Mystic Falls Gang but closet to the Lockwood's as her Dad was best friends with theirs. After her parents passed when she was a young teen she moved in with them though they all drifted apart. She started smoking and partying more until she activated her curse and then she isolated herself besides spending time with her closet friends, Elias & Jeremy Gilbert and her cousin, Reagan. She was Klaus' third successful hybrid, though different than the rest which is probably why they became so close. Years later after a run in with Kai Parker she learned more about her family history, her Dad had been a Crescent wolf and her Mom had been a witch. She's also an extroverted introvert, confident, sarcastic, very protective of the people she cares about, loyal, somewhat of a flirt, can be untrusting towards new people.

@sociopathicheretic

Full Name; Malachai Silas Parker Other Names; Kai, The Sociopath, Homicidal Maniac Age; 50 Species; Heretic Sexuality; Pansexual Zodiac Sign; Aries Face Claim; Chris Wood Universe; TVDU About; Before the murders and the prison world he wasn't a bad kid, he acted out sometimes but not as often as you might think. Having other siphons in his family helped though all of them still felt like outsiders from the rest of the family. At some point he just gave up trying with his parents and other siblings and instead of reacting to anything they said or did he kept quiet and acted as if he didn't care though the rage was slowly building inside. Besides the other siphons he was close with he'd met a young witch and the two quickly became friends, and then something more before everything happened and he was sent to the prison world. He never knew what happened to girl he'd started to have actual feelings for until decades later when he managed to get out and found out from her daughter, Seraphina, that'd she passed away a few years prior. It wasn't long after that both of them found out her Mom had another daughter, his daughter, Paisley. He's also an extroverted introvert though leans more introverted. He's impulsive, unpredictable and can be quite cocky when he wants. Lives for chaos and is very sarcastic, always finding a joke in serious moments. He can flirt when he wants to though he's usually just himself and that works well enough.

@thexoutcast

Full Name; Valerie Mae Henderson Other Names; Val, Mae, Maes Age; 24 Sexuality; Bisexual Zodiac Sign; Aries Face Claim; Willa Holland Universe; Stranger Things About; Growing up she'd always been a troublemaker though she tried to keep up a "good girl" act for her parents and younger siblings, after losing her Dad and moving from her hometown where she had a few friends and was bullied somewhat to Hawkins where she knew no one and was bullied severely the teenager completely shut in on herself and spent less and less time at home. The only friend she had for a while who she meant not long after moving there was Eddie Munson and the two were practically inseparable. He taught her how to play DnD and more songs on the guitar, and she taught him songs she knew and how to play the piano (that went about as well as you'd think-). When Will went missing and she felt like the police weren't doing enough she went looking for him herself. She eventually found him, though that was after she'd been dragged by the Demogorgon to the Upside Down herself. After they both eventually made it home safe Val became closer with everyone though didn't really tell anyone about what she went through. She's an introverted extrovert, sarcastic, honest, very protective, especially of her siblings, can be very guarded, flirty, and adventurous but cautious after everything.

@behindxthecamera

Full Name; Jonathan Ross Byers Other Names; Jon, Jonny, Byers Age; 23 Sexuality; Pansexual Zodiac Sign; Virgo Face Claim; Charlie Heaton Universe; Stranger Things About; Growing up he didn't have the best home life because of his dad and being bullied at school though he had a few good friends, the closest of those being Eddie Munson and Elie Henderson. After everything that happened with Will and all that came after it, he shut in on himself a lot more and started smoking weed, even before he moved to California. When he moved, he made friends with Argyle, or more so Argyle kind of just took Jonathan under his wing and introduced him to his other friend, Stella. After going back to Hawkins he ended up breaking things off with Nancy and then returned to California, spending half his time there and half back home until he completely moved back. Though he still visits from time to time to see Argyle and Stella and they visit Hawkins to see him. He's definitely an introvert but has his moments, is pretty quiet especially around people he doesn't know or isn't comfortable with but when he is around his friends and can be himself, he really shows it, and he's also very protective and caring of the people he loves.

Friday, November 15 — Needledrops: The Playlist!

SO YOU'RE BREAKING INTO A PRISON: PLAYLIST FOR THE ABRACADABRA BREAK-IN

the way i already put this together bc I am nothing if not obsessed with scoring my plots. anyway -- the overall philosophy for this playlist was to find songs that were both cinematic but also had a healthy dose of humor/fun to them because MAFIA is very chaotic neutral. They have more in common with the Joker kind of villain-- unhinged, charismatic, dangerous-- than the Thanos kind of villain, if that makes sense! So these songs needed to make you feel like breaking into a prison is fun! That was the goal.

A short description of the songs:

Am I Dreaming - this is the song that represents the 'prologue' of the plot. It has a more dark/serious tone than many of the other songs because it represents that initial tension and anxiety before go time.

Like a Prayer - Battle Royale Mix - I wanted to do a kind of reprise situation, so I knew I wanted to put Like a Prayer early in the playlist so the gospel version would hit later. This represents the Tower Takeover ft Joanna and Vidia.

Dangerous - this song kicks off Gem and Karen setting off a fire! That's really it. It also has a lot of that like, fun and cocky energy.

Supernova (KENZIE RE:WORKS) - did i put this on because it had the alarm in the beginning therefore signifying the alarm going off? Yes. I also liked that it is a more instrumental song with lots of industrial sounds that I felt like really fit the industrial prison setting.

Chk Chk Boom (Festival Ver.) - similarly this song is just Fun and represents the other teams as they go through their missions simultaneously! Gem and Karen kicking ass! Vidia and Joanna calling the Warden! Tink and Banzai breaking into the office! Hit u like a truck I'm gonna make u fly boom. Boom vamos I know that you want it Boom chaos we're so catastrophic boom, etc etc, u get it right? u see the vision.

What's Up Danger - this song represents the stakes heightening, like when Cami's disguise fails, Angel kills a guard and-- most importantly-- Banzai performing the spell that drops the wards. The Epic Needledrop Moment Fr.

Like a Prayer (Choir Ver) - The Void Has Opened! Final Battle Time! We Are All Escaping to Freedom!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - the epilogue track duh. Our fearless heroes have returned to the Pixie's VIP room and are ready to party the rest of Halloween!

Tatiana

---

I probably should not have taken that edible.

Moon also had an edible in, she was the one who gave them to me, and we just needed an escape route. Me so I didn’t die, her so she could get her mind off her mother being a piece of shit.

We went home a couple hours after I saw the hallucination and when I got home, I went to my room and looked at the torn curtains. God, I still remembered the sound. The sound of my escape from existence being foiled and hitting the ground. It helped to ground me, surprisingly, making me realize that when my mother had cut me down, it meant someone would notice. Someone would care. 

I was almost glad it had been prevented now, but at the time, I was heartbroken and didn’t talk to anyone for weeks afterward. Not my mother, not the staff at the psych ward, not my friends, I didn’t even speak in presentations.

I started writing on my WIP, and felt A Presence that left when I looked up. I wasn’t sure precisely what it was, but it felt familiar. It felt like me. I tried to follow it, but it got away and I sank to my knees in the middle of the hallway.

My mother came back an hour later and gave me a few chocolates, then said, “What’s wrong?”

“I- I feel… numb inside, like something’s gone in me,”

“Oh,”

She sat next to me and I lay on her shoulder as she rubbed my back and whispered, “Well, at least you’re talking about it. Good job!”

I opted to cry into her uniform and sobbed, “I just wanna feel normal for once,”

She lifted me, her cold skin soothing to the touch, and she took me to my room, then started singing a lullaby in a language I didn’t know, despite her having taught me the languages she spoke.

I succumbed to its lull, and fell asleep, and found her asleep outside my door when I woke up a few hours later, she hadn’t even changed out of her uniform.

She woke up after I crept by her and said, “Oh, did I fall asleep?”

“Sim, mamae,” I replied.

“Tá. Vou pra cama, tchauzinho, filha,”

And I could have sworn something hugged me. Not something malevolent, but kind.

—

When I went to school the next day, the girl who sat behind me in German kept throwing scraps of paper at me, and they had horrible words on them.

I eventually had enough and snapped, “Can you stop?”

The teacher told me to go after that, and looked at me sympathetically and, as she gave me the note, said, “Explain the situation to guidance, okay?”

I nodded and went down to guidance, and I felt the phantom hug again and broke down in the middle of the office. 

I went home after that.

I called Cami, and she sounded happy- despite the near, at times, emotionless voice- to hear from me… then started talking about the werewolf shit. That wasn’t a dream.

Shit.

I lay back on my bed and, quite frankly, I was too tired for this, so I just let her talk. Her voice was like a bell and I loved her.

And when she finished speaking, I updated her on my mental state and the hollowness inside, and told her about the bitch in German class.

“Wait. Which German class? Which period?”

“B3, German II,”

I could practically hear her squeal before squeaking, “We’ve got the same class!”

I smiled and, unsure of how to respond, steered the conversation away from that, and we started talking about boats, books, and breaking points in our ability to hold out in this shitty, shitty world.

And she suddenly started crying on the other end.

“What’s wrong?” I asked.

“I- wings- wings wings wings owie-”

“YOU HAVE WINGS?”

My mom popped into the room and looked at me strangely, then told me she was going to work now, and not to expect her ‘til eight.

Now I could talk about the really fucked up shit.

Cami told me she’d been discharged an hour ago and could come over, and I agreed. 

She was at my house within twenty minutes after I gave her the address. Despite the fact there were bullet holes in her legs, she was still able to run in her wolf form, and did, and could walk somehow in her human form, although it greatly hurt her.

I let her in, and we went up to my room before she shifted back and flumped backwards on my bed. She had a bushy blue gray tail and I caught a hint of golden eyes, and she laughed, then covered her eyes before sitting up. I wasn’t sure why, though she did tell me when I asked, and blindfolded herself with a strip of fabric from her pocket to hug me. She didn’t take it off.

She brushed through her tail with a pet brush, then said, “So, wanna see the wings?”

I shrugged, and she said, “Just an fyi, I’m going to take of my shirt, so, please don’t react,”

She peeled it off to show a white crop top, and I saw bandages and scars, including an even line of scars that ran down her torso. 

Her eyes darted around the room, and she tapped her fingers against each other, like I sometimes did when I dissociated. 

She started crying into my shoulder and said, “I don’t know why I did them- I just wanted to feel what Hunt felt so I’d understand, and it was all for nothing, he still hates me- I miss him, I miss him so much,”

I let her cry and felt the phantom hug again, and I also started crying. The touch brought me to life, and that made me shake.

She stopped crying after a bit and hugged me tighter, and said, “What’s wrong?”

“I- the hollowness, it ended for a moment. I-”

I felt like this was all unnatural. Like I shouldn’t exist. Like I shouldn’t be real.

The phantom hug squeezed tighter, and I cried harder.

Cami’s growing wings twitched, and I asked if I could touch them.

She immediately responded with, “So you know how you’re not supposed to touch a bird’s wings?”

I shook my head, and she launched into a rant about how to properly care for birds, and something about bird sex and how petting a bird’s wings leads to them thinking you’re their mate.

Cami

----

As the moon rose a week later, I kept close to Tatiana, and she hugged me in reply as I gathered the pack. She didn’t look me in the eye for safety, which I didn’t mind. One less person I had to make some very forced, very painful eye contact with.

She leaned on my shoulder and a fox that was patterned like a tortie ran up to us, panicked. Her arm had little spikes on it. That hunter I’d turned, then.

She was being chased, and I quickly told everyone to stay away from this area.

I approached Hunter and told him to leave, and he held out his hand and said, “Truce?”

I growled at him, and he backed away. The fox went up to him and got on his foot, and I saw him relax.

And he didn’t have any weapons on him.
