—📜" Making your way back to the campsite, a kind stranger guides you back to where you're needed. With him
Recounting your steps would be futile. It’s best for you to leave fate like this.
It got dark too quickly and you still haven’t traversed your way back to the camp. A short trip to your van for some extra supplies became a longer task than you anticipated it to. You can barely see the sun anymore. The trees start to look the same. Your lamp feels like it’s about to go out any second now. 
The camping materials hold you back severely. Your shoulder aches and the cooler in both of your hands are heavy. Watching the sunset, you drop the cooler below a landmark tree. Four scratches. You don’t exactly know what caused those scratches, but whoever did it, they marked your path back to your friends.
With a sigh, you bend over to carry the cooler again—
“You need help with that?”
The cooler drops to your feet, making you scream out. The person, who materialised out of nowhere, comes up to you. “Sorry, are you okay? I didn’t mean to startle you.”
The man looks concerned. His eyebrows furrow as he stares at you. It’s alright. It’s just… someone.
“Oh,” you say, wincing as you hold yourself up against a tree. “I’m alright, I guess. Are you, uh, camping here too?”
He smiles. His teeth are white and he has little fangs like your little sister. It’s cute. “Yeah, just by the lakeside,” he says.
You haven’t seen another tent on the lake. You’d know since you and your friends are stationed there. Maybe he’s more camouflaged. “Oh, uh, actually, me and my friends are there too. If it’s not too much of a bother…—”
“You want me to take you there?” he says, practically reading your mind. “Yeah. It’s getting dangerous out at night.” He approaches you, looking around the forest with cautious eyes. “Let me lead the way, yeah? Just follow me and you won’t get lost.”
You nod. He doesn’t look away from you and you don’t either. When he turns to the path, you follow his figure closely. You feel lighter now. The equipment doesn’t seem so heavy anymore… Did you forget something?
He asks you, “You guys staying for long?”
“Ah, well, for a bit. We leave tomorrow morning.”
“Really?” he laughs. “I’ve already been here a while and I never wanna leave,” he jokes. You think that to be true. He turns to look back at you, seeing as you struggle behind him. He reaches out, “Let me get that for you so that you won’t worry about carrying anything.”
You nod. Your backpack, your lamp, all of it goes to him. He smiles as you catch up to him.
You think you’re reaching the lake right about now. You remember seeing another landmark earlier. You think you were supposed to take a turn—but he hasn’t, right? He knows where to go. He knows what to do. You should trust him. You should trust him.
The night looks darker. Did the lamp run out?
He’s not holding anything. He’s not looking at you anymore.
“Hey,” you call out, looking around, “Are we…?”
“Yeah, we’re almost there,” he assures. “Come on. Hurry now. I can hear your friends from here.”
You don’t hear them. The wind threatens the both of you for a moment, the breeze coming along with it. He takes your hand to guide you forward. You think you hear them now.
There’s something in the distance. It looks like a cave. “Ri-i-ight over there,” he drags out, hands in his pockets as you both stand outside of it. “Your friends are calling for you there.”
It’s too dark to see them. It must be later in the night now. You can hear their voices. They’re calling for you. They’re calling your name. You can hear them so vividly. Get in the cave.
Get in the cave.
Get in the cave.
Listen to me.
Get in the cave.
Darkness envelops you with each step forward. They’re closer now. The footsteps behind you feel distant. Yet, you feel the warmth of a body pressed against you. You can feel the air against your neck, like soft whispers and heavy breathing.
You call out one of your friend’s names. It echoes in the cave.
“They’re here, sweetheart,” someone whispers behind you. He's the kind man. “It’s getting late. You need to change into sleepwear, hm? Take your bottoms off for me.”
There’s nothing you can see in the dark. You feel around for your pants as you start to unbutton them. Another pair of hands come to hold yours, guiding you where to pull and where to unzip. It helps you take them off.
“You look very nice,” you’re lowered to the ground, “sweetheart, you look very nice. Can you lay on your front for me?”
The kind man allows you to the cold floor. You feel nice. Just a bit sleepy. He keeps you up with his hands going up and down your body. “Wish you could see yourself,” he says, pushing your top up—revealing your chest—” you look beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.”
You can hear something in the background. It sounds almost terrifying. Like the sounds of rubber stretching, the peeling of the skin, and small little grunts that echo throughout. Still, you’re soothed by the kind man who shushes you calmly.
“It’s alright, I just wanna…” he trails off, shifting you around so you’re laying on—something. It’s smooth yet hard beneath you. It’s cold, too cold. “...sweetheart?”
Has he been calling your name the entire time? You can’t really speak. You try to open your mouth but it’s too heavy. You’re lightheaded.
“It’s okay, just wanted to make sure you’re still here,” he says, “I wanna ask you something, just nod or shake your head, yeah?”
You nod.
“Do you like your friends?”
You nod.
“Do you truly want to see them again?”
You nod.
“Then can you help me out? Just for a moment, just for a little while.”
…You nod.
His chuckle is all you hear before he pulls you up. You can hear something dragging behind him. Once you’re pressed against the wall, you continue to hear it as something slides against you. You can’t move. You can’t feel your arms. 
The panic settles in and he’s trying so hard to keep you calm. He whispers unintelligible things to you as something goes tighter, almost making you unable to breathe. It’s tight against your stomach and your shoulders. You can still feel your legs but you can’t move them. You won’t. You won’t move them.
“Stay still,” he says. “Just help me since I helped you, okay? Just one small thing.
“I need to mate with you,” the coils around you tighten, “I need to use you for a while and I promise I’ll return you to your friends. Just make me good for a bit, okay? You got that, sweetheart?”
You let out a little noise. He doesn’t say more as you feel air caress your now bare cunt. It surprises you. “I’ll try to prepare you.”
Something prods against your hole. It’s dry but you feel that you’ve already started leaking. He moans, “Already feeling good? I’m so glad. You’re gonna enjoy this, I promise.”
It pushes inside of you. Your breath gets choked out of you as you feel it massaging deep inside of you. Your legs shake as you struggle with it constantly rubbing against your G-spot. It’s playing it so easily that you can’t help but moan.
“Doing so good for me,” he says, his voice suddenly on your neck as the coils around you loosen. “Gonna put another in.”
He’s true to his word. Another thing goes inside your pussy and now you’re being scissored open. Your legs quiver hard. “So fucking wet,” he moans, “I wanna put my cocks inside of you. I wanna keep you with my eggs stuck inside. Fu-u-u-uck..!”
You cry out as the things inside of you fuck you. It thrusts relentlessly and makes you accustomed to the feeling of being stretched wide. It’s driving you crazy how it reaches so deep inside of you like an actual cock.
“I’m sorry,” he says suddenly, the thing inside of you pulling away. “I’m so sorry. I need to fuck you. I’m about to fucking burst and it hurts!”
You’re pulled up a little before something wet touches you. You moan, the slickness of it cold and almost uncomfortable. He whines in your ears as it rubs between your folds desperately.
“Sweetheart, I’m gonna fuck you with my cock, okay?” he says, something—his cock spreading slickness all over your cunt. “I’ll be gentle later. But you’re so good for me, so pliant, so fucking delicious—!”
He gets cut off by both of your moans. You scream out as you feel his cock stretch you. His fingers aren’t enough as you feel him split you open. The heat inside of you is warming you from the inside out, threatening to burn you alive.
“O-oh,” he moans, the coils tightening you, “that’s only one cock. I can’t wait to feel your ass on my other one.”
You don’t get to process his words as the coils around you guide you up and down on his cock. You’re stuck moaning without a name. His cock feels like your entire first, punching you in and out without mercy as he chases his orgasm.
In front of you, he’s panting. He’s going mad with the feeling of being inside of you. Every part of him feels like it's losing as you clench around him, unaccustomed to his size.
“So… tight~!” he moans, thrusting his hips along, “so fucking good. I wanna feel you take all of me. I wanna see you carrying my eggs so much. I wanna fill you up please..!”
He’s mumbling incoherent things as something slaps you from your behind. It feels like his other cock. You don’t panic. Instead, you feel tenfold the arousal as it pokes you at your dry rear.
It doesn’t push in. You know he’s disappointed with the way he’s crying out as he fucks your pussy harder.
“...so much. Wanna fill you up so much,” he moans, a sound coming from the back of his throat like a hiss. “I need to train you on my cock and make you never wanna leave. You’ll never need anyone else but me! Only—only me!
“Fuck, you feel so good, sweetheart.” His hips don’t stutter as you’re being suffocated again. You’re dizzy. You can feel yourself losing air in your brain as your cunt gets railed over and over again. The buds inside of you are getting rubbed to their most sensitive degree as you can feel him in your stomach. It’s jarring. It’s terrifying.
It’s so fucking good.
You wanna stay here forever.
You wanna be trained on his cock
You never wanna leave.
You never need anything but him
Only him.
A cry escapes your throat as you squirt all over his cock. Your spams doesn’t make him stop. “Oh, fuck, you’re so cute!” he says, “you’re shaking. You’re—you’re so tight around me. I’m gonna make you a momma. You’ll never be able to let go of me after this, sweetie. You’re going to want me forever.”
Least expecting it, his cocks stretch you further. You let out a meek noise as it struggles to push something in. “N…no more,” you sob, your walls pushing against it as it tries to make itself home.
“It’s okay,” he hushes. You can feel his arms around you as the coils loosen. “Take a deep breath for me. You’re doing so good.” It pushes in more. “Be a good girl. Be a good momma, okay? Come on, take it!”
He thrusts into you one last time and you scream as something gets pushed inside. You pant, feeling something heavy stretch you inside. It feels like you’re throbbing inside. It feels like a heartbeat
“That’s so good, you’re so good. Such a good girl.”
For the first time, he kisses you. The first thing you feel is his tongue pushing against your lips. It fucks your mouth open as you feel it slither. It’s long and thicker than at least three of your fingers.
You gag. You can feel it against the back of your throat and you struggle to take it in. He tasted sweet. Is it supposed to taste this sweet?
He moans on top of you as he rubs his cock inside of you, pushing the thing inside of you a little deeper. He pulls out of the kiss and you’re left with a drool connecting the both of you. “Mmm, sweetheart, you taste so good. Do I taste good?”
He does. You nod lazily as your head falls into his shoulders. He laughs as he strokes your back. “It’s okay. I’m satisfied for now. I’m sorry I rushed, okay? When you come back next time, I’ll be more gentle. I’ll even make a nest for you and our child.”
Before your brain can catch up, you’re falling into the sweet comfort of his arms.
Tumblr media
When you wake up, your friend ushers you awake.
“Get the fuck up, sleepyhead!” she yells. “You’ve been asleep for hours, we need to go soon!”
You groan, unwilling to wake up. Your body feels so sore. The sleeping bag wasn’t the best for camping, you’d guess. What a waste of purchase.
Outside, the birds are chirping and the sounds of the river are soothing. You’re gonna miss this place, not gonna lie. It’s like something would die in you if you were to leave. Then again, you’re very dramatic.
Your name is called. “Hey! Help me bring this stupid ass cooler! Jacob’s already carrying the other one.”
You put it up against your arms. Huh. You feel like you got a moment of déjà vu. It’s probably nothing. You shake your head, trying to get rid of the morning fog in your head.
Fuck. You think you need to check in at a hospital. You can barely walk and your stomach feels heavy. Maybe get someone to check in on you—...
No.
You can’t do that.
You can’t let anyone touch you down there.
Just need to return to the lake after a month and you’ll be good as new.

DCxDP Prophecy Universe Part 7
Part 6
It took Damian the rest of the afternoon to prepare for his trip to Amity Park. Jon helpfully agreed to cover for him, on the promise of a copy of the upcoming Cheese Viking 2 and getting filled in on all the hot Bat gossip afterwards. Wasn’t friendship grand?
Pennyworth thankfully agreed that ‘bonding time’ between the Super Sons was a good use of fall break and even took the time to ‘Prepare some healthy snacks for the young Masters, lest you eat junk food the whole week’. The task also handily distracted the butler while Damian packed the Batwing with all the necessary surveillance equipment he would need and set up the program to spoof his flight data. Damian had no doubt that Father wouldn’t be fooled for long, but with the Bat it was always better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission.
The flight to Illinois was mercifully uneventful. Damian rappelled off in the middle of the eponymous city Park, then instructed the autopilot to take the plane to a wooded area outside city limits and park there in camouflage mode. Once he was sure his arrival had gone undetected, he changed into civvies and with his backpack full of gear set off in the direction of Fenton Works on foot. In jeans, sneakers, a dark hoodie and a baseball cap he looked like any other kid his age, even if he was out after curfew. Damian made sure to stick to the shadows and ducked behind cover whenever a car passed him.
All in all it took him until the early morning hours to arrive at the correct address. Intellectually, he had known the Fentons operated their workshop out of the family home, but he was in no way prepared for the monstrosity of a building that greeted him. Damian couldn’t help but stop and stare in disbelief.
What had once started out as an ordinary brownstone building had a glaring neon sign out front, proudly proclaiming the company name. Perched precariously on the roof was a gigantic metal structure that looked like a cross between a cartoon UFO and an observatory. There was no way this was legal or sane. If something like this had popped up in Gotham it would have been flagged as a Rogue hideout and bugged to hell and back. Hell, Damian was half tempted to break in immediately to start planting cameras but was held back by the likely presence of a custom security system. Mad scientists were rude like that and Damian didn’t want to tip his hand too early. He would have to at least wait until he was sure the Fentons weren’t at home.
Damian tucked his hands into the pockets of his hoodie and strolled past the building at a fake casual pace. The windows were dark and the building was silent, except for the faint hum of the neon sign. This early on a Saturday morning, the residents were likely fast asleep. He spotted an electric scooter chained up next to the stairs leading up to the entrance and made the deduction that it likely belonged to Daniel. Under the guise of retying his shoelaces, he dropped to one knee and surreptitiously attached a bug to the vehicle. Ideally he would get the opportunity to bug Daniel himself, but for now this would have to do. Hoping that no one had noticed him, Damian continued down the street.
He had researched the area ahead of time and had found an apartment a few buildings down and across the street that was advertised as available for rent and was unoccupied. Breaking in and disabling the home alarm was child’s play, and after making sure he was alone in the apartment, Damian settled in to begin his surveillance.
He pulled the handheld radiation detector out of his backpack and after making sure it was operational he slipped it into his pocket. With no way to boost its range he would have to get pretty close to Daniel with no major obstructions in the way in order to verify if he had been in contact with the marked bills he had slipped Phantom. But Damian was confident in his ability to stay undetected. After all, Daniel had no reason to suspect he was being stalked by a curious Bat.
Damian kept himself occupied by listening to the local radio broadcast over his comm. The hosts sounded like chipper twenty-somethings, excitedly shilling for various local events happening over fall break, in-between shilling for local businesses. Why anyone would want to eat at an establishment called the Nasty Burger was beyond Damian. Whenever they stopped nattering to play actual music it was a blessing even if the appeal of the songs was entirely lost on the young vigilante. Finally, at 8am they had an actual news segment. Most of it was covering major US and global events, nothing Damian hadn’t already heard. Elections, natural disasters, rising tensions in Bialya…
“...and in local news, the City Library has announced that clean-up after last week’s ghost attack is finished, and they will be open at their normal hours on Monday!” the female host said cheerily, as if she was talking about the weather. “As usual, we would like to remind our listeners to keep their third eyes peeled for any ghost sightings! In case of a ghost attack, follow standard protocol and head to your nearest ghost shelter. Thank you! And here’s Mark with sports!”
Damian was flabbergasted. Ghost attack? This city experienced supernatural incursions and treated it like it was a normal occurrence? He’d read that the Fentons were ghost hunters, but he hadn’t thought anyone was taking them seriously! If Amity Park was under attack on a regular basis, how come the Justice League didn’t have a file on the city? Surely the news should have leaked to the outside world by now!
It was rare that Damian was caught so utterly wrong footed. His cursory research into Amity Park had turned up nothing like this! He was itching to get back to the Batcomputer to do a deep dive on the city and its history. Unfortunately, all he had on him was his phone which was ill suited for serious data compilation. At best he could scour local news sites and social media for any hint as to what was going on.
After half an hour of fruitless searching, he gave up in disgust. There was no mention of ghosts anywhere, save for the Fentons’ own website. Yet the news report had been almost blasé about the subject! Something was rotten in the State of Illinois.
All he could do for now was stare out the window at the Fenton’s front porch and hope his quarry made an appearance soon.
At 9.13 AM there was finally movement at the Fenton house. A dark-haired teenager in jeans, a light T-shirt, a backpack and a bicycle helmet bounded down the front steps and unlocked the electric scooter. It was unmistakably Daniel.
Damian hurriedly packed away his things, grabbed his backpack and left the apartment. He made sure to rearm the security system and lock the door, leaving no trace of ever having been there. Of course Damian wasn’t about to pursue his target across the rooftops of an unknown city in broad daylight. He would just have to wait for Daniel to arrive at his destination and follow him there. He retrieved his phone and pulled up the tracking data. It looked like the teen was headed towards the city center.
Damian tuned his comm to the listening device he had planted and set off towards downtown Amity at a light jog. For a while, all he heard was background noise. After about ten minutes, Daniel came to a stop.
“Hey Tucker, ready to go?” That had to be Daniel.
“Hey Danny!” a second male voice answered, “I was just waiting for you. Sam says she’ll meet us at the main entrance of the mall.”
“Sweet. Hopefully we can grab something cool from Game’O’Rama if we beat the rush.”
“You said it, my dude. Come on!”
The tracker resumed its movement. Now that he had a destination, Damian used his phone to call a cab. There couldn’t be that many malls in a city this size.
Daniel and his friend ‘Tucker’ kept up a steady stream of idle chatter on their journey. Damian learned more than he ever wanted to know about the attractive qualities of the female students at their high school, the tediousness of the homework assignments they had received for the week and the reviews of recent horror movie releases. Inconsequential chit chat as far as Damian was concerned. Once the pair arrived at their destination they parked their scooters and were soon out of range of the listening device. Damian cut the transmission and spent the rest of the short cab ride trying to find information on Daniel’s companion. Since they were apparently classmates and he had a first name to go on, it didn’t take long to narrow it down to Tucker Foley. Damian made a mental note to investigate him in depth later.
The mall was moderately busy when he arrived but nowhere near as bad as Gotham. Luckily there was a floorplan displayed at the entrance and it didn’t take Damian long to find the Game’O’Rama store. Predictably, it was dedicated to video games, gaming accessories and memorabilia. A sign in the window announced a major weekend sale, likely what had drawn Daniel and his companions. Damian slipped on a pair of mirrored sunglasses to conceal his eyes and meandered into the store. Wandering between the aisles, pretending to examine the games on offer, it didn’t take him long to find his quarry and Damian got his first good look at the trio.
Daniel was almost a head taller than Damian, slightly paler and with his dark hair mussed up from the scooter ride earlier. His clothes were slightly threadbare, and not the kind that was intentional. His white T-shirt bore a faded NASA logo and his jeans were frayed at the cuffs. He had dark circles under his eyes, though not nearly as bad as Drake got when he was on a case. Nonetheless, for the moment he seemed cheerful and at ease. He was examining the back of a disk case.
“I don’t know Tuck, I’m not much for medieval fantasy,” he said amusedly, “and a lot of these monsters look like ghosts we’ve seen. I get enough of them on a day to day basis, I don’t need them in my video games too.”
Again, this talk of ghosts.
The African American male next to Daniel had to be Tucker Foley. He was just a few inches shorter than Daniel, with his hair in shoulder length dreadlocks partially covered by a red beret. A matching red T-shirt with white Atari logo and baggy camo pants screamed nerd even before you got close enough to notice the black rimmed glasses and the clunky looking device he was tapping away on. Where did he get it from, the middle-ages?
“Look, the reviews are pretty great, and if we avoid everything ghost related what’s even left?” the boy argued, “You can’t let ghosts ruin your fun, man.”
“Tucker’s right, Danny.” the third member of their group chimed in. She was dressed head to toe in black, with a sheer, lacy top, a knee-length skirt, fishnet gloves and stockings and a pair of combat boots. With the thick soles giving her added height, she was almost as tall as Daniel. She wore eerily pale foundation making her dark purple lipstick and eyeshadow pop out even more. She had a small nose stud with a matching purple stone. Her earrings were shaped like spiders dangling from a web and she wore a pentagram necklace. Damian knew some of his schoolmates belonged to the goth subculture, but Gotham Academy’s dress code heavily limited such self-expression on campus. He guessed this girl was either really dedicated to the style or really dedicated to pissing off her parents. Maybe both.This had to be ‘Sam’.
“Besides, if Technus couldn’t ruin gaming for us no one else should either!” she continued.
“Fiiiiine,” Daniel sighed, clearly playing up his reluctance. “but if Amity gets attacked by an army of goblins next I reserve the right to say ‘I told you so’!” He double checked the price tag. “Splitsies?”
The girl scoffed and plucked the case from his hand. “I’ll take this one, you can pay for lunch later. Why don’t you two go ahead to Pineapple Republic for those jeans you wanted? I’ll catch up to you.”
“If you’re sure. Thanks Sam!” Daniel leaned over and gave her a peck on the cheek. “I guess we’ll see you there.”
“Yeah, thanks Sam.”
“Go on, shoo!” she laughed and headed over to the cash register as the boys left the store. Making a split second decision, Damian grabbed a random game from the shelf and got in line behind Sam. He leaned slightly towards her, pretending to examine the figurines behind the counter and stealthily stuck a bug to her skirt. Now he could listen in on their conversation without having to risk being noticed.
After paying for his purchase he wandered off in the direction the other teens had taken. He would just have to leave the game somewhere ‘accidentally’ at the earliest opportunity. Pretending to check his phone he tuned his comm to the frequency of the new bug. 
“...I think those are still a little short on you.” Sam said amusedly.
“Man, I’m glad I finally got my growth spurt, but having to replace most of my wardrobe is gonna be a pain in the ass!” Daniel complained.
“Look at it this way Danny, this could be your chance to branch out. A whole new style, a whole new you!” Sam countered enthusiastically.
Damian walked towards the source of the signal. He didn’t follow the trio directly into Pineapple Republic, instead heading into the shoe store across from the clothing store. Browsing there would let him keep an eye on the entrance.
“Let me guess, would this style include black, black and more black?” came Foley’s snarky voice.
“Black is timeless, I’ll have you know,” Sam sniffed in mock offense, “and Danny does look good in it. Just try it?”
“I don’t know Sam, I don’t wanna blow my allowance on clothes that don’t feel like me.”
“Oh! We could always try the thrift store, they have plenty of cool stuff! And upcycling is great for the environment.”
“Uh, hard pass,” came the flat reply, “I would like to survive the year with some of my dignity intact, please.”
“Yeah dude, if Dash and his cronies caught wind of Danny going to Goodwill or something they’d never let him live it down.”
“There is nothing wrong with buying second-hand!”
“Says the girl in $500 guaranteed cruelty free designer boots.” Foley shot back.
“That’s different!” Sam sputtered, “And besides, I don’t see why you still chase the approval of those jerks.”
“Easy guys, settle down,” Daniel said placatingly, “Sam, you know it’s different for us. You might be able to brush off Paulina’s snarky comments, but I can’t just brush off Dash trying to rearrange my face. I’d rather not paint an even bigger target on my back.”
Sam gave a loud sigh. “Ugh, stupid high school politics. I can’t wait to graduate.”
“I dunno, if things go according to plan you’ll have to deal with real politics, Ms Future Administrator of the EPA Manson.” Daniel teased.
“You mean Senator Manson.” Foley chimed in.
“Madam President Manson!”
“Stop it guys!” the girl laughed, “I’ll leave the political ass kissing to someone else. I just want to save the planet! But I gotta get my doctorate first.”
“Well if you do end up having to take over the country to do it, there’s one thing to keep in mind,” Foley said sagely, “You can’t be much worse than President Luthor.”
The two replied with fake gagging noises while Foley just snickered.
“But seriously, since you brought up mixing up my style… I was thinking of getting my ears pierced.” Daniel said hesitantly.
“Really? Ooh, do you want studs? Danglers? An industrial?” Sam gushed excitedly.
“Well… aw nuts.” Daniel’s voice was suddenly tense.
“You know what?” Sam rushed out, equally tense, “I think you should go and try these pants on. In the changing room. Right now.”
Damian frowned. What the hell had happened? He glanced out the shop window but couldn’t see anything out of the ordinary. Suddenly, he heard distant screams and the sound of glass breaking. It’s almost like being back in Gotham.

Dreaming of You (Heart and Soul)
A Bucktomy Soulmates fic
****
Buck was 12 years old when he first learned about soulmates. He was "dating" a girl the way middle school kids do when her friends began teasing about them being soulmates, asking if they dreamt about each other. Buck laughed along at the supposed joke, not really understanding the deeper meaning behind their words.
That night, he sought out Maddie, curiosity piqued. "What does all that soulmate stuff mean?"
Maddie considered her words carefully. "Well, not everyone has one. It's actually pretty rare. But some people have a connection so deep, they're essentially two halves of a whole. Their subconscious can even dream about their soulmate as a kind of internal compass, helping them find each other."
"Wow," Buck breathed, his mind spinning with the romantic possibilities. "Is Doug yours? Did you dream about him?"
A soft, uncertain smile crossed Maddie's face. "No, but I'm not sure I have a soulmate or if I even believe in the whole thing. Doug is a good, solid partner," she said, her tone practical.
Buck studied his sister's face, something in her dismissal not sitting quite right with him. He didn't believe Doug was the best she could do, but he couldn't articulate why. Instead, he just nodded, letting the concept of soulmates dance in his imagination.
He was 14 when he had the first dream. It was different than anything he'd ever experienced before. He woke up with a deep ache in his heart, a yearning that felt both foreign and impossibly familiar. The dream hadn't been vivid, just flashes really - a camouflage-colored backpack, snippets of harsh desert landscape, distant sounds of vehicles and wind.
But something about those images was unlike anything Buck had ever encountered in his dreams before. There was a a connection that went beyond mere snapshots. It was as if someone else's memories had temporarily become his own, leaving behind a sense of longing that he couldn't quite explain.
He lay in bed, heart racing, trying to hold onto the wisps of the dream as they began to fade. The camouflage backpack seemed to burn in his memory - a specific shade, a particular wear pattern. The desert scenes felt raw and unfiltered like a lived experience.
Buck didn't understand it, but he knew, deep in his bones, that this dream was different. This felt like a message, a connection to someone he hadn't yet met.

HGUC 1/144 P-Bandai Principality of Zeon Mass Production Mobile Suit MS-06GD-01 "Zaku II" High Mobility Surface Type (Egba Alter Custom)
Finally finished!!! I've been working on this kit in the background for a couple of months now. I really loved these guys in the Cucuruz Doan's Island movie, as sort of unique upgraded Zaku IIs that skate around like the Doms from the original anime.
The part of this kit that originally attracted me was the camouflage pattern. All of the details are water decals. This was my first time working with them, and although I found them really frustrating to work with sometimes they give a much better looking effect than the dry decals and foil stickers from normal kits. I added some extra details inspired by some of my friends' tank models, including a cam-net cape made using a gauze bandage (that isn't actually there on Egba's machine in the anime).
There are 5 versions of this machine, for the members of the Southern Cross Corps. Egba Alter's version comes with a combat knife in place of the classic Zaku II heat hawk. This can be held as a sidearm and attached to the hip skirt or fixed as a bayonet to the zaku machine gun.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The kit also comes with a spare pan magazine, which I've attached to the opposite hip.
Egba's mobile suit has a heat rod attached to the backpack, which comes with a heat-off and heat-on option. I added some red to make it look more like heated metal and less like a big yellow stick.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Overall I'm really really happy with how this kit turned out! I'm nearly done with my really long backlog and I'm finally starting to fill up my display.

"Catastrophe for somebody, salvation for others. Desertion is flooding Ukraine" by assembly.org.ua
Tumblr media
"Imagine: the rulers start a war, and no one goes to it!"
Donations to support the authors are possible at this link. Many thanks everyone for such a great contribution!
(...)
The article "In the long hot summer, Ukrainian and Russian soldiers broke records for the growth of desertions", which was published by us on the first day of autumn, turned out to be just in time. (It is available in Russian, in English, in Spanish, in Italian.) A number of feedbacks came from both sides of the front. From discussions in local chats of Kharkov:
"I have a small observation, several busified ones, who haven’t been very critical of the authorities all this time, now quite console themselves with the thought that those at the top know better. While you are "free", your thoughts are within the framework of social currents and have the opportunity to wag. As soon as you get into a collective with outlined tasks, in most cases, your thoughts are in the same tunnel as everyone else. A busified, getting into a collective of previously busified, but already resigned to the situation, mentally assimilates with them, accepts their point of view, creating a comfort zone (swimming against the current is always uncomfortable). There he’s drawn into the topic and also begins to think that everyone else is a scoundrel and an evader, motivation appears. Until he gets into slaughter. There comes awareness and often SOCh [desertion]."
-
"I have three – a godfather and two deceased acquaintances who went voluntarily from the first days, but when they came to Kharkov, we drank together, no one shouted that I’m an evader, but on the contrary, that there’s nothing to do there. One, a volunteer too, is already abroad. He went for 2 weeks and has been there for half a year already. He said that just to take a rest..."
-
"A guy worked nearby, and he had a dog. So he dressed it up in a camouflage vest, a yellow and blue leash. And he himself walked around with all sorts of patriotic bracelets and tridents on his backpack. On the way to work, he was accepted by the TCR and he went to training. Then I see after 2-3 months he is hobbling. I thought he was drunk, but everything turned out to be much more interesting. After training, they were taken in tarpaulin trucks somewhere to the front line. And right when unloading the personnel, they got hit with something cassette-like. So, he wasn't drunk, his legs were cut up by shrapnel, and they hadn't pulled out all the shrapnel from the body yet. They sent him home from the hospital to finish his treatment, but didn’t write him off due to his wounds. And the guy said during conversation that he f*cked all this, he was going to go into SZCh. That's how quickly his surge of patriotism passed."
Tumblr media
On September 9, we received a letter from Gorlovka, controlled by the far-right "Donetsk People’s Republic" since 2014:
"The saddest thing is that if you start telling people that soldiers need to desert the army and turn their weapons against those in power, people will widen their eyes and say, "Do you want 1917 to happen again? For brother against brother again, and for people to swell with hunger? It's better if we endure, otherwise it will get worse." We have photos of those wanted for escape on our streets. And the inscriptions: "Betrayed the republic, betrayed comrades, betrayed himself." I’ve heard the opinion that we have a lot of SOCh. But "a lot of" is a flexible concept. And their captures aren’t published here."
We will not cite the name of the person who spoke out.
(...)
Alas, after the end of the Vietnam War, such a type of anti-war activist as a military serviceman engaged in agitation and propaganda among his colleagues was practically forgotten. This is exactly what a Russian leftist who introduces himself as Sergey Thälmann wrote to us about on September 2. In addition to other important inside information, his letter helps us understand why there was no widespread desertion among Russian conscripts in the Kursk region, despite the fact that this seems to be the most logical choice for those poorly prepared for battle:
"I’m a conscript, there was no distinct choice. I actively educate soldiers and explain the injustice of the conflict. Of course, I’m not very fond of anarchism, but I believe that there’s no way without anarchists. Anarchism is the heart of communism, and Marxism is its mind.
I’ll say right away that there’s a strange atmosphere among conscripts – for some reason everyone wants to see the war. And when you start explaining that war is not a shooter, not a computer game, their desire immediately disappears. However, there are even such young people who defend Russian capital. They speak in the paradigm of "friends – foes" about Ukrainians and Russians. This is truly frightening. Many sign the contract, but... Taking into account both material and superstructural values. That is, with the desire to see the war. Consumer society has washed away the human brain so much that 19-year-old guys in Balashikha [near Moscow, – Ed.] want to go to Kursk. And it seems to me that such an atmosphere is not only here.
Well, and interesting observations: many officers are outright Nazis. For example, I talked to the communications chief of the mortar division of the 4th regiment. And he told me that I need to read... German thinkers of the 1930s. And there are hundreds of such ones here. Although there are adequate people... On the faces of the mobilized you can see more fear, despair. I talked to so many mobics here – not a single one wanted to fight. Some worked in a plant, some as an electrician. But conscripts are the opposite. Maybe because many are from the provinces, where life is boring and there are few bright emotions. Or maybe because in a consumer society, the consumer can consume absolutely any product provided. Even war becomes a commodity for sale.
In the companies there is also such a concept – military-political information. There they say absolutely terrible things. About how Ukraine almost burns people alive, and almost exclusively hits peaceful cities, ignoring military objects. As if the AFU isn’t an army, but... some small bandit who shoots at everything in sight. The main thing is that they hush up how in Russia, too, they pack people and forcibly send to war.
What can we get here, two concentrated capitals clashed with each other. Their most loyal dogs came out of their kennels)) Ukrainian capital is just as chauvinistic and concentrated in the form of financial capital as Russian. No government can be defended, they are both criminal, both thieves. And war is a war of slave owners for the strengthening and reinforcement of slavery. To support one of the slave owners in it means to be against the oppressed, that is, against the slaves. Against the serfs. Against the proletarians.
By the way, to those who say that Ukraine is a victim. Supporting a young and inexperienced robber in a fight with an old and fat one is supporting robbery as such and further robbery of one of them."

Pretty Little Teacher
Simon Ghost Riley x female reader
Warning: 18 plus, dubcon and noncon theme, dark themed, dark ghost, s*x and erotica, forced sex.
He loves me like a monster, all teeth and talk and hiding in the dark. That's my speciality, Men with strong bodies and fragile hearts, and if you hold them too tightly they will crumble beneath you like an avalanche that is waiting."
●●○~ Lindsey Hobart ~○●●
Ghost sat in his dimly lit room, the blue glow from the laptop screen casting sharp shadows across his masked features. Laswell's voice echoed in his ears, calm yet commanding.
"You have to go undercover to gather some intel," she instructed, her face a picture of seriousness on the screen. Ghost's fists clenched, his eyes narrowing as deep creases appeared at the corners. He remained silent, absorbing the gravity of the assignment.
"You'll be posing as a high school student. We have made all the arrangements. The principal and teachers are informed. We need important intel about a person working there. I'm sending you a report. Read it," Laswell said, her tone leaving no room for discussion. She hung up the video call before Ghost could utter a word.
"Fuck!" Ghost cursed, his frustration evident. "Now I have to become a fucking high schooler," he spat, the absurdity of the situation gnawing at him.
As a highly trained SAS soldier and an elite killing machine, Ghost was used to the most dangerous and covert missions. But this? This was entirely different. How the hell was he supposed to blend in as a high schooler with his massive height and muscular build? He would look like a fish out of water, a grown man playing dress-up.
He opened the report Laswell had sent, scanning through the details of his new identity and the target he needed to surveil. The mission was critical, he reminded himself. He had faced worse odds and more dangerous situations. But even as he reassured himself, the thought of navigating the social labyrinth of a high school filled him with a unique dread.
"Guess it's time to go back to school," he muttered under his breath, already strategizing how he would tackle this bizarre new mission.
Ghost scanned the report, eyes moving quickly over the lines of text. Someone from the office staff was involved in terrorist activity, and the school's security was compromised. The specifics were still murky, but the mission was clear: infiltrate, gather intel, and neutralize the threat.
As he read, his phone buzzed with an incoming message. It was Soap.
"Hey, high schooler! Need help picking out your backpack?" Soap's message read, followed by a string of laughing emojis.
Ghost growled in irritation. Soap had been making fun of him since he got the assignment. In truth, Ghost thought Soap was the one who was fit for this job. With his leaner build and younger appearance, Soap would blend in effortlessly. But orders were orders.
"You're just jealous you can't relive your glory days," Ghost shot back, though he knew Soap would get a kick out of his reply.
He closed the report and leaned back in his chair, staring at the ceiling. This mission was unlike any he had faced before. It required a different kind of camouflage, a different kind of patience. He was about to step into a world of teenage drama, cliques, and homework. But he would adapt, as he always did. He had no choice.
Monday morning arrived too quickly. Ghost stood in his small apartment, the usual grey hoodie and sweatpants hanging off his frame. Soap had helped him gather the essential school supplies: notebooks, pens, and a new backpack that didn't look out of place for a high schooler. He slung the backpack over his shoulder and slipped on his skull-printed balaclava. His identity had to be hidden at all costs.
He climbed into his Range Rover and drove to the school, parking a distance away to avoid drawing attention. With a deep sigh, he exited the vehicle and made his way to the school entrance.
The moment he stepped into the corridor, the contrast of his presence was stark. Teenagers milled about, chatting and laughing, but Ghost felt like a fish out of water. His height and build made him stand out like a sore thumb, despite the hoodie and balaclava doing their best to conceal his identity.
He pushed forward, reminding himself of the mission's importance. He needed to find his way to the office, get his bearings, and begin gathering intel. The corridor seemed endless, each step echoing with the sounds of lockers slamming and indistinct chatter.
"Fucking Hell," he muttered under his breath, trying to blend in as much as a heavily-built, masked adult could in a sea of high schoolers.
Ghost made his way to the last classroom on the K-12 hallway, assigned as a senior posing as an 18-year-old. Despite being 29 with a muscular build, he hoped to blend in with the 12th graders.
He opened the door and walked in, immediately feeling the curious eyes of his new classmates on him. Ignoring the stares, he scanned the room for any signs of the person he was here to investigate. The teacher, a middle-aged woman with a warm smile, looked up from her desk.
"You must be the new student," she said, motioning him to an empty seat near the back. "Welcome."
Ghost nodded and made his way to the seat, keeping his head down. He dropped his backpack on the floor and settled in, trying to seem as inconspicuous as possible. The other students eventually lost interest, returning to their conversations and distractions.
As the teacher began the lesson, Ghost's mind raced. He knew he had to keep a low profile while also staying alert for any signs of suspicious activity. His eyes roved over the room, memorizing faces and noting behaviors. The target could be anyone-an unsuspecting office staff member, a seemingly innocent teacher, or even a fellow student.
The day had been a tedious blur for Ghost, each monotonous class blending into the next. Used to the adrenaline of combat and the precision of sniper shots, he found the slow pace of high school unbearable. But all that changed when you entered the room.
Your presence was electrifying, a stark contrast to the dull atmosphere. The click of your red Louboutin pumps echoed in the silent classroom as you made your way to the front. Your black dress pants, stylishly slit, and button-up shirt under a sleek black blazer highlighted your figure. Long, blonde hair cascaded down your back, framing your big blue eyes and perfectly pink lips.
Ghost felt a surge of desire course through him, his mind racing with thoughts he knew he shouldn't entertain. He imagined gripping your tiny waist, pulling you close, feeling your petite frame against his as he lost himself in you. The urge to take you, to dominate you, was almost overwhelming.
"Hey! Newbie, are you listening?" Your voice cut through his fantasies, pulling him back to reality.
"Yes, ma'am," he replied, his husky British accent barely masking his distraction.
"Your name?" you asked, standing near his desk, your eyes meeting his.
"Simon," he answered, using his real name to avoid any potential mistakes.
"Well, Simon, try to pay attention," you said with a faint smile before returning to the front of the class.
As you began the lesson, Ghost forced himself to focus, but it was a losing battle. His thoughts kept drifting back to you, and the way your presence stirred something primal within him. He needed to remember his mission, but in that moment, all he could think about was how desperately he wanted you.
The period ended, and Ghost watched you leave the classroom, struggling to control his thoughts. You stood out among the middle-aged teachers, looking so young, no older than 25. How could someone like you be teaching 12th graders? The question burned in his mind, but it was more than just curiosity; he was captivated by you.
He barely remembered the rest of the day, his mind fixated on you. As soon as he could, he retreated to his apartment. The urge to release the tension was overwhelming. Stripping off his clothes, he stepped into the shower, the hot water cascading over his muscular frame. His cock was already hard, fueled by the image of your lips wrapped around him.
"Fuck," he groaned, his hand wrapping around his shaft. He imagined you on your knees, your pink, plump lips taking the full length of his cock in, your big blue eyes looking up at him with a mix of innocence and desire. His strokes quickened, his other hand gripping the air as he fantasized about it tangled in your long, blonde hair.
His body tensed, muscles straining as he neared the edge. The thought of you sucking him off, your pretty little mouth taking him deeper, his cum all over your face pushed him over. He climaxed hard, a guttural groan escaping him as he came, the pearly liquid mixing with the warm water and flowing down his thick thighs.
Leaning against the shower wall, he panted heavily, trying to catch his breath. The intensity of his release did little to quell the longing he felt. As the water washed away the evidence of his fantasy, he knew he was in trouble. This mission was supposed to be about gathering intel, but his thoughts kept drifting back to you. He needed to stay focused, but the image of your gorgeous face and enticing body lingered in his mind, a distraction he couldn't afford yet couldn't resist.
The next day, Ghost found himself eagerly anticipating school, though for entirely different reasons than his usual missions. From the moment he had first seen you, you became his muse, eclipsing the seriousness of his undercover assignment. Dressed in blue jeans, a black T-shirt, and a sleek black leather jacket that concealed his tattoo sleeve, he waited through all six periods just for a glimpse of you.
When you finally entered the classroom, the atmosphere seemed to shift. Students greeted you warmly, but Ghost's attention was solely on you. You wore high heels that accentuated your figure, a casual T-shirt, and form-fitting pencil jeans that emphasized your curves. It was undeniable-you were the most stunning woman he had ever encountered.
As you distributed MCQ papers among the students, you approached Ghost's desk. Your curiosity got the better of you as you inquired about his mask. "Why are you wearing a mask?" you asked, your voice filled with genuine curiosity.
"I get sunburn," he replied smoothly, trying to maintain his cover.
You chuckled softly, the sound sending a thrill down Ghost's spine. "Weirdo," you whispered teasingly, but your words were loud enough for him to hear. The image of dominating you right there, bending you over the desk, fucking you from behind and hearing you begging to stop, flashed vividly in his mind, your body arched in his hands, pussy clenched around his length as he rails his full length till the hilt into you, ruin your pretty little cunt for everyone while you screaming out his name.
"Concentrate on your paper, weirdo," you mocked again as you moved away.
His jaw clenched with frustration, anger simmering beneath the surface. Despite the rush of desire coursing through him, he remained stoic and silent, forcing himself to focus on the task at hand. He knew indulging in these fantasies could compromise his mission, yet resisting the pull of attraction toward you seemed almost impossible. Ghost was torn between duty and desire, unsure how much longer he could keep his composure around you.
He had finished his paper along with the other students as the bell rang, signaling the end of the period. One by one, they handed their work to you, you seated at your desk. Ghost lingered, the last student to leave, quietly closing the door behind him. Remaining seated, he watched you intently.
Stealth was his forte, and he approached you silently. You were small compared to him, your back elegantly arched as you organized the papers into a neat pile. Standing right behind you, he suppressed the urge to touch you. Suddenly, you moved back, inadvertently brushing against the bulge in his pants. A squeak escaped your lips as you jumped, startled like a bunny, and turned around.
Leaning heavily against the table, you panted, eyeing the behemoth of a man standing before you at his full height for the first time. A shiver ran down your spine from the sensation of his arousal against you. He stood there with a menacing look in his eyes, extending his paper to you. With shaky hands, you took it, feeling a jolt as his gloved hand brushed against you.
Without a word, he turned and left the classroom.
Throughout the drive to his apartment, he couldn't shake the image of you, how your inadvertent touch had stirred a primal urge within him. How you bumped into his erect cock ready to sprung out. The urgency of his mission weighed heavily on his mind, but thoughts of you kept intruding.
Later that day, consumed by desire, he found himself jerking off imagining you once more. He couldn't help but picture your round ass, the sensation of you against him, his cock stretching your gummy walls as he fucks you doggy style, the fantasies growing more vivid with each passing moment. It was a distraction he couldn't afford, yet couldn't ignore.
The next day, he arrived at the school as usual, anticipation swirling within him. Your period had become his favorite, and he waited patiently until you appeared, as usual, with an air of cautious awareness. As the lesson progressed, you couldn't help but notice his chocolate brown eyes fixed on you through his balaclava.
He was no ordinary teenager - tall, dark, and undeniably handsome even with a balaclava on his face, with a presence that set him apart. You felt the weight of his gaze, the tilt of his head to the side like a predator sizing up its prey. Despite the distraction, you continued with your class routine, distributing checked papers to the students, your focus unwavering on your mission.
His gaze remained locked on you, unwavering, as if he had something more than mere curiosity driving his attention. You knew you couldn't afford to be distracted, not with what was at stake.
As you hurriedly left the classroom, your footsteps echoing in the empty corridor, you reached for your cellphone and stepped into the quiet solitude of the bathroom. With a hushed voice, you spoke into the receiver, "Yes! Tomorrow is the day. We will hunt another doe tomorrow."
Across the line, a voice crackled with excitement, "Perfect. After school, then?"
"Yes," you affirmed, nodding to yourself. "After school." With that, you hung up, slipping the phone back into your pocket.
Unbeknownst to you, Ghost known as Simon, the new student who had been quietly observing the dynamics of his new environment, had overheard your conversation.
From the first day of his undercover assignment, Ghost had sensed something amiss. How could a 25-year-old teacher be instructing seniors when others with more experience were available? It gnawed at him, a puzzle piece that refused to fit neatly into place. As he stood in the hallway, a vicious smirk spread across his face.
"So you are the one," he whispered to himself, the realization sinking in. "And now, there's nobody that can save you from me. Not even yourself." His mission had taken a dark turn. You are the one involved in human trafficking.
Tomorrow was the day Ghost knew he had to act swiftly. He slipped on his skull mask, adjusted his gear-blue jeans, black hoodie, and vest. His Beretta rested against his chest while his sniper rifle was ready on the passenger seat of his car.
He parked in the nearly deserted school lot, waiting patiently. It was nearly two hours past school hours when he spotted you approaching from the back of the building. You met with another person near a car.
"The girl is in the bathroom, I've hidden her there. Wait here, let me take her out," you said.
Without hesitation, Ghost aimed his sniper rifle at the man's head and took the shot. Skull fragments and brain matter scattered as the bullet found its mark. A scream tore from your lips as chaos erupted.
Ghost calmly placed the sniper rifle on the seat and stepped out of his car. You saw him approaching and instinctively ran. Darkness was descending, the winter chill settling in.
You ran for your life, heart pounding with fear, but Ghost closed the distance quickly. Desperation set in as you realized you had no weapon. You took out a pocket knife and attempted to attack, but Ghost deftly seized your wrist, disarming you.
You screamed and struggled, but he immobilized you, securing your wrists with a zip tie. With a forceful push, he slammed your back against a car, the impact knocking the breath from your lungs.
Fear and confusion engulfed you as Ghost stood before you, his identity finally revealed, and his intentions chillingly clear.
"Let me go," you tried to scream as he pinned you against the car, looming over you. His 6'4" frame towered over you, casting a dark shadow. The edge of his knife pressed against your throat qnd his hand on your chest kept you pinned against the car.
"Just got you. Now I can't let you go, won't let you go," he whispered in your ear with his husky voice. "How can I waste this pretty little cunt of yours, princess?"
You whimpered and squirmed, fear coursing through your veins. His hand traveled to your neck, his grip so firm that you could barely breathe. You struggled to breath. Your vision blurred as darkness enveloped you, and you melted into his arms like putty.
You went limp in his arms like a rag doll, a pretty little thing for him to play with. He strapped you into the passenger in his car seat and drove off, his mind racing with twisted excitement.
He stroked your hairs with his fingers while he drove. He just had got his little plaything.
Upon reaching his apartment, he carried you inside, laying you gently on the soft sheets of his bed. Even in your unconscious state, you looked so beautiful and irresistible. His excitement grew, his cock twitched from the anticipation building as he stood over you, lost in the dark allure of the moment.
You whimpered as you slowly opened your eyes. Ghost was perched on a couch in front of you. Sitting up slowly, you noticed your hands were still tied in your lap. Your tiny body shivered at the sight of him as he rose to his full height. The room seemed small, his eyes behind the skull mask full of menace, looking straight through you. Your lips quivered with fear as he approached.
"Wakey, wakey, Princess," he taunted, stepping out of the shadows. His blue jeans were tight around his thick thighs, and his black hoodie strained to contain his muscular physique. The skull mask shone dimly in the light. The tattoo peeked through the space between his sleeve and his gloved hand.
You gulped, "Who are you?" you asked in a small voice.
"Ghost. Heard the name before?" He tilted his head to the side, and realization hit you hard-it was Simon.
"What do you want?" you barely whispered.
"You," was his only reply as he stepped closer.
A whimper escaped your lips as you pulled yourself to the other side of the bed and stood up.
"Don't make this hard for yourself, Princess."
Panting, you frantically ran towards the door, but his hands were around your waist in no time. He slammed you against the wall, the impact sending pain throbbing through your back.
His hand smacked the wall beside your head. The barrel of his gun made contact with your chin.
"Look at me!" he shouted, his voice an order. You squeaked in response, your eyes meeting his.
"Good girl," he praised, his hot breath fanning against your face. "I'm a lieutenant, not your average student, and you have to comply-or else." The barrel of his Beretta poked under your ribs. "Choices have consequences," he said softly this time.
"I've been thinking about your body since the day I saw you." He stroked the soft skin of your chest with his gun, trailing it down the valley between your breasts. Your skin quivered under the touch of the cold metal.
"So irresistible, Princess." His husky voice sent shivers down your spine.
You gasped as he snapped your ziptie with a strength so brute it took only a second to come off. Your buttoned blouse came next as he snapped it apart. All the buttons came crashing down on thefloor. Your pearly necklace was snatched from your neck. The pearls came rolling down on the floor.
You gasped as he snapped your bra from the front. Your perky breasts liberated from the confines of the lacy material.
He pulled his mask upto his nose and his lips grazed your neck as his thumb met your nipples squeezing your breasts so hard it was almost painful. A painful moan mixed with pleasure escaped through your lips.
He held you close by your waist and he chuckled as your small waist fitted so easily in both his hands all while kissing your neck while his hands played with the soft skin of your back.
"So soft like plush in my hands." He said as he rubbed your nipples with his rough thumb. A sexy hiss escaped your lips as you threw your head back biting your lips.
"You gave in so easily princess." He whispered. His sexy voice made you moan.
He tossed you over the bed, with a squeak you fell, soft sheets cushioning your back as you landed with a gasp.
His eyes, filled with a hunger that mirrored your own, locked onto yours. "Been waiting to bend you over that goddamn desk in that class and fuck your needy little cunt, princess," he confessed, his voice low and husky with desire.
As he removed his hoodie, revealing a canvas of scars that gleamed against his muscular frame, you couldn't help but gasp. Each scar told a story of battles fought and survived, adding to the allure of his rugged demeanor. His predatory approach, intensified by the skull mask he wore, sent a thrill through your veins. He moved closer with a confident stride, his presence filling the room with a primal intensity that both thrilled and unnerved you.
You gasped as he closed the distance. His hands reached for the strap of your jeans, deftly unbuttoning them with a deliberate touch. With a smooth motion, he slid the denim down your legs, revealing your bare skin in the soft moonlight filtering through the curtains.
"So beautiful," he murmured, his voice a low rasp that sent a shiver down your spine. You laid exposed before him, feeling both vulnerable and empowered by his gaze.
You knew you were powerless infront of him and he will have his way with you one way or another. Wetness had already pooled between your legs and you were trying hard to hide it by closing them.
He traced the barrel of his gun along the soft skin of your inner thighs. Shivers ran down your spine as you felt the cold metal against your sensitive skin.
"Open your legs Princess." He ordered slowly parting your thighs.
"So sensitive, aye?" he said with a mocking tone.
You hissed at the sensation. He slowly pressed the barrel against your clothed folds, eliciting a moan from your lips.
"Please! I beg you, don't do this," you pleaded, my voice trembling.
"Look at you! A wet, hot mess for me," he sneered.
He knelt before you, his hands reaching for your panties. With one tug, he tore the strap, leaving you completely exposed.
"You should thank me, princess, that I'm gentle with you. I'm not very gentle with women. They run from me after what I do to them," he laughed.
Your breath hitched in your throat. "Oh my god," you moaned.
He opened your legs slowly, his fingers parting your folds as he gently touched your swollen clit. Your body quivered with the sensation.
"So soft, so sensitive," he said, as he slid his rough fingers inside you.
A slow scream escaped your lips as your pussy clenched around his fingers. Your back arched, moans spilling from your mouth. He watched your face contort with pleasure as he leaned down, his tongue making circles around the buds of your nipples.
You clutched the sheets, your eyes shut tight as his fingers curled up, hitting just the right spot.
"You sound so pretty, love," he teased, his tongue continuing to play with your nipple. The sensation was heavenly, sending waves of pleasure through your body.
He adjusted himself between your thighs, kissing your entire body as he moved down toward your stomach and then your most sensitive part.
He gently kissed the inside of your thighs before his tongue met your folds. Screams of pleasure spilled from your pretty mouth as he nipped and sucked at your already swollen bud.
"Oh, fuck!" you moaned.
He kept teasing your folds with his tongue, sucking your wetness as he held your hips tightly in place.
He kept torturing you with his tongue until you couldn't take it anymore.
"I-I can't take it anymore," you begged.
"Ssh!" he whispered, placing a finger on your lips. "You're going to take it, just a little longer."
Your body trembled as he continued his relentless assault with his tongue, the pleasure overwhelming. He moved his finger from your lips to your clit, rubbing it in slow, torturous circles while his tongue continued its work.
"Please," you whimpered, your voice cracking with desperation.
He looked up at you, his eyes dark with desire. "Beg me," he commanded softly.
"Please, please, I need more," you cried out, your body aching for release.
A satisfied smirk played on his lips. "Good girl," he said, his voice low and husky. He increased the pressure of his tongue and finger, driving you closer to the edge. "Now, let go for me."
With his words, you felt the dam break, and waves of ecstasy crashed over you. Your back arched, and a guttural moan escaped your lips as you finally reached your climax. He continued his movements, drawing out every last bit of pleasure from your trembling body.
As you lay there, breathless and spent, he gently kissed your inner thighs before moving up to your face.
You were still high when he unzipped his pants.
"Been waiting for this ever since I laid my eyes on you," he said, taking his cock and positioning himself on top of you.
You looked at him with dazed eyes.
"Like what you see, princess?" he asked with a smirk.
"I-I can't do this," you pleaded.
"You can do this, and you will," he replied firmly.
He pressed his cock against your entrance, bending you down. Without warning, he pushed his entire length inside, pinning your wrists against the bed. You screamed as your walls wrapped around him, your body struggling to adjust to his size while he fucked you deeply, not giving you any time to acclimate.
You were completely at his mercy, a plaything for his desires.
"Fuck! Princess, you feel so tight around me," he growled, thrusting in deeply.
You were breathless, disoriented by the intensity of it all. He drove into you with unrelenting force, hitting inside you to the extreme. Your back arched under him as waves of pain and pleasure coursed through you. His cock was so big it made an impression inside your belly where it hit.
"How does it feel, me ruining your pretty pussy, love?" he growled, sitting back on his knees and gripping your waist tightly.
Your eyes rolled back as he railed into you with brute force, the sensations overwhelming and consuming.
Whimpers escaped your lips as his hips thrusted against your pelvis. Skin to skin, the intense connection between you sparked a fire that threatened to consume you both. You hid your face in the soft pillow, the tears mingling with your whimpers, your cries echoing in the room like a haunting melody.
He chuckled at the sight before him, the raw vulnerability and passion in your every movement only adding to the intoxicating air surrounding them. "Look at you, eh," he murmured, his voice a low growl filled with satisfaction. "Taking me so well."
With a sudden move, he lifted you up by your waist, your heart racing a mile a minute, your vision blurred with the overwhelming sensation of being completely lost in him. "Oh my god, I am gonna die," you whined, the words a mix of fear and ecstasy that only served to fuel the flames of desire burning between you both.
But he just chuckled, his hold on you firm and reassuring. "Not on my watch, luv," he whispered, his voice a comforting anchor in the whirlwind of emotions and pleasure that threatened to consume you.
He pulled out abruptly, spinning you around and delivering a stinging slap to your ass.
You clutched the sheets as he seized your hips, pulling you towards him and plunging deep inside once more. A primal groan escaped his lips as he grabbed your hair, tilting your head back and driving himself deeper with each thrust.
Your impassioned cries only fueled his intensity. With a firm grip on your waist, he pounded into you relentlessly, embodying the raw, primal desire of a man possessed. Your body arched and trembled on the bed as he pinned you down by your head, pressing your face into the bed.
"I can't do this anymore," you begged him.
He pulled you up onto your knees, his free hand gently gripping your neck while his other arm rested between the valley of your breasts. His hold on your neck was firm but not painful, asserting his control. With a strong grip on your waist, he thrust deep into you.
You leaned against his chest, your face turning towards him as you neared your release. He captured your lips in a hungry kiss, swallowing your moans.
His cock twitched and pulsed as he reached his climax. His movements grew erratic as he poured himself into you, filling you with his essence.
Exhausted, you collapsed onto the bed, eyes shutting tight as the waves of ecstasy washed over you.
He settled beside you, carefully tucking you under the sheets while you lay on your stomach, peacefully asleep.
"Sleep well, princess," he murmured, his fingers gently caressing your hair.
The next morning, you woke to find him already seated on the couch, wearing the same skull-printed balaclava, his eyes still filled with menace. Your whole body ached and marked with hickeys. Last nights encounter spiralled in your mind.
"Good morning, princess. I hope you're feeling well," he greeted you, tossing an oversized t-shirt in your direction.
Confusion and fear gripped you. "Who are you? Why did you do this to me? What were you even doing in my class?"
"I'm Lieutenant Simon Riley, also known as Ghost," he replied coolly. "I was in your class because we've been keeping an eye on you. Now, get dressed. You have visitors."
You rose silently and headed to the bathroom to change. As you finished, there came a knock at the door.
He opened it, and police officers entered the room.
"She's all yours," he stated with a smirk beneath his balaclava.
"You'll regret this! I'll make you pay for this!" you screamed as they cuffed you and led you away.
"Fuck you!" You screamed.
He chuckled darkly, watching as you were taken into custody.
"I just did." He winked as you were taken away.

Alien Fantasy-File 11: Caffeine Concerns
Tumblr media
youtube
The metallic corridors of the mother-ship hummed quietly as Matthew pressed himself against a wall, peering around the corner. His movements were deliberate but hardly stealthy as he adjusted the backpack slung over his shoulder.
"Clear..." he whispered to himself, scuttling forward like a nervous crab.
Above him, several members of aclan of Pheskho clung to the ceiling, their camouflage rendering them nearly invisible. Their compound eyes tracked the human's every movement, scales shifting minutely to match the metal panels perfectly.
"Captain..." one of them vocalized quietly. "why are we following this human?" The captain's mandibles clicked softly. 
"I've been monitoring this one since he arrived with the embassy group. His behavior has been... concerning. The way he moves, always checking corners, always carrying that bag." The captain stated.
"He was on our homeworld recently, wasn't he?" Another one asked.
"Yes, part of the diplomatic corps. Which makes his current behavior all the more suspicious." The captain said. They watched as Matthew continued his awkward attempt at stealth, occasionally muttering to himself and checking his timepiece. The Pheskho warriors crawled silently above him, their eight-limbed bodies perfectly adapted for ceiling surveillance. Suddenly, Matthey stumbled, the bag slipping from his grasp. Its contents spilled partially onto the floor before he could grab it, but the brief glimpse was enough for the Pheskho to see.
"Those are... beans?" A fellow member asked, his scales flickering with recognition.
"MAINTAIN CAMOUFLAGE!" The Captain commanded as several of his squad members' scales began shifting to alarmed oranges and reds. They quickly regulated their chromatic responses, but their agitation was evident in their twitching antennae.
"Not just any beans. Those are heavy in caffeine content. Highly toxic to our tribe and the species in the Alliance."
The squad watched as Matthew hastily stuffed the beans back into his bag, looking around nervously.
"What could he possibly want with such dangerous materials?" One of them wondered.
"The Emberian Knights." suggested one of the warriors. "have you seen their last embassy? The humans seemed to barely tolerate their superiority complex."
"Or the Gephahines. They've been pushing for trade restrictions against Earth." Another suggested.
"Perhaps it's meant for the High Council itself." Another suggested, causing several of them to shift colors again before quickly regaining control. They continued following Matthew, their discussion growing increasingly elaborate.
"His sneaking technique is absolutely atrocious." The captain commented. "Look at how he's pressing against walls in well-lit areas. Complete amateur."
Matthew approached a section of wall that seemed unremarkable. The human pulled out some kind of card and suddenly a door appeared, sliding open with a soft hiss.
"Since when is there a door there?" The captain asked, his eyes focusing and refocusing on the previously blank wall.
Before anyone could respond, Matthew slipped inside. The squad barely had time to process this when the door opened again. This time, a human female emerged, wearing the scientist suit worn by most of the human scientists. clutching a paper bag to her chest with an expression of barely contained excitement.
"By the First Molt!" The Captain exclaimed through the neural net. "There's more of them involved! This must be bigger than we thought!"
The squad's colors rippled with alarm, their professional training barely keeping them camouflaged as they watched the woman hurry away in the opposite direction.
"Should we split up, Captain? Follow both targets?" one of them suggested.
"Negative. We stay together. Whatever they're planning with those toxic materials, we need to—"
The captain's orders were cut short as another human emerged from the mysterious door, this one carrying two closed cups and wearing rather casual clothing for human standards.
"Three conspirators now?" The Captain's antennae twisted in agitation. "This is worse than we imagined!"
The squad watched in growing concern as more humans began filtering in and out of the door, each leaving with similar paper bags and cups, all showing various degrees of anticipation or satisfaction on their faces.
"It's an entire network." The Captain concluded grimly. " It seems we've uncovered some sort of toxic distribution ring right here on the mother ship."
"Look at their expressions." The second in command observed. "They must be planning something truly devastating to appear so pleased and content with themselves."
The Pheskho warriors maintained their positions, documenting each human that entered or exited the mysterious door, their theories growing more elaborate with each passing minute. The Captain's mandibles clicked rhythmically as he processed the situation. 
"Whatever they're planning, we've caught them in the act! We're gonna put a stop to it now, or someone will be hurt!" The captain said.
With that. The Pheskho warriors landed with precision, their scales shifting to intimidating patterns of black and red. With coordinated movements, they rammed through the wall, revealing a set of stairs leading downward. At the bottom, they encountered another door. Without hesitation, they burst through it. The squad immediately doing their threat display - their bodies rising to full height, scales rippling with bioluminescent waves of crimson and gold, while their mandibles spread wide to reveal rows of metallic-looking teeth. Their antennae whipped forward aggressively as they released their species' signature war-screech.
"HUMANS! You have been caught in your illegal distribution of toxic substances!" The Captain's voice boomed through the room. The warriors moved swiftly, grabbing random humans from their seats. Screams and shouts of surprise filled the air as cups clattered to the floor and chairs scraped against metal flooring.
A sharp whistle cut through the chaos, freezing the Pheskho in place.
As they surveyed their surroundings, the scene before them was far from what they expected. Humans sat at small tables scattered throughout a warmly lit room. Some wore civilian clothes, others in various uniforms, many clutching paper cups or half-eaten pastries. Security personnel stood alert, hands hovering near their weapons.
But what truly stopped them short was just how...nothing looked out of the ordinary. Humans slumped in comfortable chairs, dark circles under their eyes, staring at data pads or chatting quietly. The walls were decorated with artwork and signs. The air smelled of something sweet. It looked exactly like the countless human establishments they'd seen in human sectors. Complete with soft music playing in the background.
A nervous voice broke the tense silence: 
"Uh... Welcome to the Planet's Core Cafe."
The Pheskho warriors stood motionless, their scales shifting to confused patterns of green and blue.
"We'd offer you something, but I don't think we have anything on the menu that won't harm or kill you."
Menu? The members' eyes darted around the room, focusing on the dark liquid in many cups. One warrior peered behind the counter, where Matthew stood frozen, hands still on a large machine, those same beans from earlier visible in a clear container above it.
Their translator software finally processed the sign behind him: "Today's Coffee Specials."
The captain's mandibles clicked rapidly in confusion.
"Those are Caffeinated beans." the Captain stated, mandibles twitching with nervous energy.
"Yes." Matthey replied simply.
"Those are known for being toxic."
"So we've heard."
The Captain's scales flickered rapidly between warning colors. 
"Who were you guys planning to feed those to?!"
"Umm... Us?" Matthew gestured vaguely at the room full of humans. The Pheskho Warrior's attention darted around the café. Several humans had already resumed their drinking, seemingly undisturbed by the alien warriors in their midst. Some carefully sipped from their steaming cups, while others scrolled through datapads, the armed intrusion barely registering as more than a mild interruption.
"They put Caffeine in those?"
"But why?" Another warrior asked. A disheveled human in engineering coveralls spoke up from his corner table, dark circles prominent under his bloodshot eyes. 
"Look, I haven't slept in three days straight. Between the reactor maintenance cycles and the emergency repairs in sector seven, I needed SOMETHING to keep me awake."
"Three days?" The Captain's scales shifted to a puzzled blue-green pattern.
"Try four!" called out a security officer from across the room. "Double shifts because of the diplomatic summit."
"I've been pulling extra shifts in medbay since the Rigellian flu outbreak." A medical officer chimed in.
The Captain stared at the humans, his eyes focusing and refocusing as he processed this information. 
"This isn't... bad for you all?"
Matthew laughed while wiping down the coffee machine. 
"Oh, it's definitely bad for us. Some of these folks are so addicted they can't function without their morning fix." He gestured to a group of humans who nodded sheepishly. "But it keeps us going when we need to."
The warriors' scales rippled with increasing confusion, their formation beginning to show signs of uncertainty. Matthew continued cleaning as he explained
"See, here's the thing - this ship houses hundreds of species, right? And most of them, like yourselves, can't handle caffeine. It's toxic to pretty much everyone except us humans. So when the mother ship was designed, they didn't exactly include coffee stations in the common areas."
He paused to serve a fresh cup to an anxious-looking human who had been hovering nearby. 
"At first, we tried going without it. But have you ever seen a human diplomat try to negotiate trade agreements after three days without coffee? It wasn't pretty."
"So you created this... establishment?" The Captain's mandibles clicked thoughtfully.
"Exactly. We found this unused space in one of the quieter sections of the ship. Converted it into a proper café. Humans can come here or drink in their quarters, keeping the coffee away from other species. We're very careful about containment protocols." 
"Does the High Council know about this operation?"
"Well..." Matthew scratched his head. "they know humans drink coffee. We've been pretty transparent about that. And we've made sure to keep it far away from any areas where it might cause problems. The café's location isn't exactly secret, but we don't advertise it either. Better safe than sorry, you know?"
The Pheskho warriors stood in awkward formation, their scales cycling through various confused patterns as they tried to process this revelation.
"Hey, uh, could you move?" A tired-looking human in maintenance gear tried to squeeze past them. "I'm jonesing for a cup-a-joe right now."
The Captain's mandibles drooped slightly as he signaled his squad. The warriors began filing out, their earlier aggressive posture replaced by something approaching embarrassment - if their species was capable of such an emotion.
"Oh, and Captain?" Matthey called after them. "We'd appreciate if you kept this relatively quiet. Not because it's illegal or anything, but well... there are some less-than-friendly types who might get ideas about stealing our coffee beans. And trust me, you don't want to see what happens when you get between a human and their caffeine supply."
The warriors marched out of the Planet's Core Café. Behind them, the sounds of normal café operation resumed - the hiss of the espresso machine, quiet conversations, and the occasional
 "Can I get a triple shot?" from an especially tired human.
The captain eyed his group. All of them looked dejected. He was at least happy to see he wasn't alone in his confusion. Those beings lack defensive mechanisms found in most species, yet they they're somehow the ones that can consume this toxic substance and even benefit from it?

Moves & Countermoves (Part 6)
Summary: No one ever wins the games, even fourteen years later, Y/N is still playing.
Prologue | Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5
Tumblr media
Peeta is down by the river, camouflaged in the rocks after Cato slashed his leg and left him for dead.
“Ah ha ha,” Chaff smiles when he spots Haymitch with an entire pitcher of rum. “So this is how the Capitol treats it’s favorites.”
“Had to steal it off the cart.” Haymitch chuckles allowing his friend to slip in between him and Y/N.
“Steady now.” Y/N teases, a hand to his back until he’s seated.
Chaff knocks her shoulder with his own, “what’s the matter, baby?”
Y/N has nothing but love for her husband’s best friend. However they are two peas in a pod and when they get together…there goes all the liquor. Back home in twelve, Haymitch has been known to have a drink or two, still able to enjoy his wife and children. This place brings it all back, the horrible things he’s done, everything he failed to do. If he wasn’t drunk, he’d surely lose his mind.
“I wanna send Peeta medicine,” Y/N explains.
“Sponsors leaving you high and dry? Never thought I’d see the day.”
“Not the sponsors, Haymitch made him a deal.”
“Who am I to disrespect this poor boy’s dying wish?” Haymitch quirks a brow.
“And his wish is to-”
“No parachutes. Save Katniss.”
“Katniss,” Chaff drawls.
Two of their tributes have formed an alliance. Rue and Katniss hatching a plan to blow up the career’s stash; lightning fires to draw them away.
“This green stuff is gonna smoke like crazy, as soon as it’s lit, move on to the next one.” The girl on fire warns.
“Ok,” Rue agrees, “we need some kind of signal; in case one of us gets held up.”
“Like what?”
“Here, watch this.” Rue lets out a tiny melody, which the birds rings back.
“Mockingjays.” Katniss realizes, “that’s brilliant.”
“We use them back home to signal the time.” Rue says, shifting the backpack on her shoulder. “If we hear that, it means we’re ok and we’ll be back real soon.”
“We’re gonna be ok,” Katniss pulls her in for a hug, running a hand over her hair. “Hey, I’ll see you for supper.”
————————————————————————
For once in her life Y/N is grateful for the Capitol broadcasting the action only, in the viewing room. A split screen between Rue lighting the fires, the careers chasing smoke and Katniss making her way to the cornucopia.
Clove and the others leave a single boy behind to keep watch. As the red haired tribute from five lily pads around explosives to steal food, the watchman catches her in his peripheral. Taking off after her into the woods.
Katniss lines up her shot, missing the corner of the apple net by just a hair. She takes a step closer, a few calming breathes later the tip of her arrow pierces the bag and out tumble all of the apples.
She’s blown back by the force of it.
“Oooh,” Chaff winces.
After a moment Katniss gets her bearings, heading back to Rue.
The boy keeping watch pays the price, Cato snaps his neck before giving him a chance to explain.
Rue is well on her way to light the last fire when she hears the explosion. Katniss did it. Then the trap set by the careers falls, she tripped the wire, a weighted net.
“Shit.” Y/N covers her mouth. Katniss…please hurry.
“Come on, Rue,” Chaff says, under his breath. “Work your way out.” He coaches, as if she can hear him. She does try, just like he taught her, but the net is too heavy.
When Katniss finds the final fire unlit, she whistles their signal.
“Get her out.” Haymitch rocks back slightly in his seat.
“Get her out.”
“Get her out.
“Get her out!”
The people of the viewing room echo. Y/N turns her head as the room builds to a collective chant.
“Get her out. Get her out. Get her out.”
It isn’t unheard of for spectators to voice their call to action. Though they are more concerned with the entertainment value than the life of the child.
When Katniss gets no response, she races toward the pile of sticks and leaves meant to start the last fire. Still no Rue.
“Katniss! Katniss, help.” Rue calls from beneath the net.
Katniss cuts her loose, Rue safe in her arms. “I’m here, you’re safe.”
The viewing room cheers are short lived. Marvel sends his spear flying, only to be met with Katniss’ arrow. When the cameras pan back to Rue…the damage is clear and irreversible.
Y/N excuses herself. She cannot watch, she cannot pretend, she cannot breathe. Scrambling into the nearest private room with the curtains drawn. Pushing them back with little care before realizing that it is occupied.
“You look ill, dear.” The Capitol woman gasps. “Come, sit down.”
“I’m so sorry to barge in like this.” Y/N apologizes, it’s not anyone she knows.
“Never you mind that, the pleasure is mine. Let me get you a drink.” The woman begins waving down a waiter.
Y/N grabs the ice bucket, “can I throw up in here?” Doesn’t matter, it’s coming up.
“Oh my stars, you poor thing.” She fans the victor as best she can, while continuing to wave one hand out of the privacy curtain. “Must be something you ate.”
“What can I get for you?” The waiter asks.
“Some water, to start and a fresh ice bucket.”
“Yes, right away.”
The woman takes great pleasure in ‘nursing’ Y/N back to health. With water and something close to a bland cracker.
These people are not inherently bad, Y/N realized that years ago. Conditioned in their belief and out of touch, but they are not evil. I don’t hate them…I hate what they do.
It’s not long before Haymitch is tearing back curtains to find her. Letting out a sigh of relief when he does.
“Haymitch, what a pleasure.” The woman holds out a hand.
“Great to meet you, love the dress.” He kisses the top of her hand, using it to guide her toward the exit, “give us a minute, will you?”
“But of course.” The woman is awestruck. The victors of district twelve, in her private room! Hailing over everyone who is anyone. Mouthing, “they’re in there,” motioning toward the fabric that separates them.
“I need you to listen to me.” Haymitch whispers, kneeling in front of Y/N. Wiping away any remnants of vomit and tears.
Y/N nods.
“Katniss gave that little girl a proper send off, you know as well as I do, the gamemakers and Snow aren’t happy about it.” She created a martyr.
Again she nods.
“I’m gonna talk to Crane, see what I can do for damage control.” Keep Katniss alive.
“Ok." Don’t let them kill Katniss.
“We’re gonna get you a mint and then I need you to walk out of here like nothing is wrong. Can you do that?” He tips her chin up, holding her gaze.
There is worry in his eyes, guilt and sadness. Her husband is afraid and he needs her. “Yes.”
“Good,” Haymitch gives her a reassuring smile, taking her into his arms.
————————————————————————
Katniss receives a parachute of bread a while later. After the silence is louder than the cannons and the artificial sun has set.
Haymitch is still negotiating, Y/N figures he must’ve sent it. Until she sees the note attached, from district eleven.
Y/N makes her way over to Seeder, sitting alone in the opposite corner.
“It was for Rue,” she older woman explains before Y/N can get a word out. “My district spent days scrounging up the money, the sponsors finally came through. We had enough to send some for Thresh too.”
“You could’ve sent him both.”
“My people wanted Katniss to have it.” Seeder informs her.
“I know she…appreciates their generosity very much.”
The answer is dry, rehearsed. Y/N is young and still does not understand. “I knew a girl once, she was kind and brave. She played the games and never let them play her. For the first time, I thought there might not be a victor. Because she was lying there, bleeding out and her partner was there, bleeding out…nobody was killing anybody,” she pauses. “Haymitch had to fight like hell to get you out of that one, they wanted your family-”
Dead. “I know,” Y/N stares down at her hands.
“I saw something that day, and I see it in her.” Seeder motions toward Katniss on the screen. “A good, genuine person with heart. They tried to snuff it out of you, beat it out of you; but I still see you. You hold onto your heart and you never let anyone take it from you.”
“Thank you,” Y/N blinks back tears.
“Attention, tributes, attention. The previous rules allowing only a single victor have been…suspended. Two victors may be crowned, so long as they both originate from the same district.”
All hope is not lost.

Do you have any references/more in-depth descriptions of what Keith and lance’s outfits look like for fanart reasons?
yo thanks for the awesome question! it took a bit to put this together.
i gathered a few references off the internet for ya.
Keith starts off wearing a fancy reddish brown wool overcoat (gifted by dad) over a canvas jacket (rust red) lined with red plaid flannel (his own pick) over a red long sleeve and a white undershirt. images for reference, colors not accurate. 👇
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
his pants are those hiking zip away kind, black. 👇
Tumblr media
he's also wearing a side/thigh pouch (black). 👇
Tumblr media
he's also got black hiking boots with an attached sheath (sheath would be slightly larger than picture). 👇
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Keith's got a beard and a good amount of hair at the moment. i'd say about a bit longer than shoulder-length, but it's unkempt and he looks about as groomed as a lion. (he wasn't expecting company.) i would say he's about early thirties in age since he ages slower (post canon Keith, technically).
currently, Lance has combed Keith's hair out and he gave him a french braid with smaller braids snuck in there for funsies, and he used a strip of his romper to tie it off.
Lance is more difficult to describe. i came up with his outfit entirely using my imagination instead of using any references.
it's basically a long-sleeved and wide pant romper with ties all along the arms, a boat neckline, and multiple sheer layers in petal-like shape all along the material. iirc, i didn't give it a specific color in the story, but i imagined it at the start as a silver or forest green gradient, maybe even multicolored. have fun with it, it's nbd. and it shimmers as the light hits it, like water.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
shoes are the same deal, but easier to describe. they're basically fancy, pretty ballet flats in blue. beaded with crystals and lace. some pics of the kind i mean. 👇
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
bird woman's boots, but black and shorter.👇
Tumblr media
i didn't give Lance any jewelry (but earrings are fair game) and he's definitely NOT wearing any kind of coronet since he's supposed to be incognito.
the white security uniform is basically an asymmetrical zip-up blazer with a mandarin collar and straight leg pants, all white with no discernible markings except "security" depicted on the back and on the breast in altean.
the parka from the emergency pods is basically a white puffy jacket with with synthetic fur for the hood. (this bit isn't mentioned in the fic because it's useless on Planet Red, but if electronics worked, Lance would have been able to change the color of the parka. it's got a scanner to camouflage it to hide better in its surroundings, or conversely, make it super visible.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
at this point in the story (chapter 13), Keith is down to his undershirt and shorts. Lance, on the other hand, has cut the romper he's wearing into shorts. it's likely uneven because he used Keith's luxite blade for it.
Keith's pack. 👇
Tumblr media
Lance's backpack, also white. 👇
Tumblr media
if i missed anything or you'd like more info, feel free to shoot me another ask.

Bonded Pair. - OCxGhost Backstory.
|| [Part Two ->] ||
pairing: COD OC!Victoria "Whiskey" Callahan x Simon "Ghost" Riley bonus: Moot!OC (Meabh "Pirate" O'Malley) x Johnny "Soap" MacTavish words: 2K~ cw: injury (nothing major or too explicit)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
May 2020
“How long until the American comes?” Soap asks to Ghost’s right as the lieutenant is halfway through assembling their camp/nest for the foreseeable future.
“Laswell said he’d come before sundown.” Ghost muttered. 
“What do you think he’s going to be like?” Soap asked.
“I think you should start heading to your spot and setting up camp, instead of yapping. It’s gonna get dark soon. You don’t want to spend the night lying on a pile of sticks, do you?”
“Jeez, L.T., calm down.” The Scot quipped with a chuckle. “I have plenty of time!”
“You really don’t. Sun’s setting soon.” A voice called out from behind them, causing them both to turn sharply, already pawing at their guns. The southern american accent was the only reason they didn’t draw them or shoot at the source.
Whiskey stepped out from behind the treeline, setting her hands on her hips after slinging her rifle onto her shoulder. She was on the tall side for a woman, standing at 5ft8, and had broad shoulders and strong arms.  Her dark brown hair was tied back into the usual military-standard low bun, though a few loose strands of damp hair were glued to her forehead, and the lower half of her face was concealed by an Army green neck gaiter that was pulled up to her nose. 
Ghost wasn’t particularly keen on working with her. But at least she looked more capable than some of what he’d seen come from the US.
She wore the standard combat uniform he had grown used to seeing on the Americans: camouflage cargos trousers, jacket, and Kevlar with the American flag. To keep her warm from the unforgivingly rainy and cold weather, she wore a brown fleece jacket under her camo, which was zipped up all the way, covering her neck and the bottom of her gaiter. She had on tan fingerless gloves, tan combat boots, and a camo backpack over her shoulders, from which hung her helmet. 
“You’re the Navy SEAL?” Ghost asked in greeting as he approached her.
“That’d be me.” Whiskey replied evenly as she reached forward to shake hands with Ghost. 
“I’m Ghost, this is Soap.” He explained as they shook hands, eyes locked into a strong, unyielding eye contact. 
“Whiskey.” She replied as she let go of his hand and turned to shake Soap’s. Only for her eyebrows to knit together and then set dangerously low, darkening her hazel-brown eyes. “You.” She said as she pulled her hand back before he could shake it.
“Me?” Soap asked, his own eyebrows rising up to his hairline.
“You’re screwing my best friend!” Whiskey said bluntly as she pointed at him.
“Am no! I have a girlfriend!” Soap said while shaking his head, entirely convinced of 
“Yeah, my best friend!” Whiskey replied with a nod.
“No? My girlfriend’s name is Meabh and her best friend is Victoria.”
“Right. Victoria, who’s American and part of the SEALs?” 
“Oh shit!” Soap said in surprise as he looked at her. “You’re her?”
“Yeah I am. And you’re the piece of crap that-” Whiskey stopped herself, biting her tongue and pointing a finger at him.
“Woah, you’re nothing like Meabh said you would be.” Soap said with a dropped jaw. “What’s with the aggression? I dinnae do nothing to ye-”
“You did enough.” Whiskey hissed at him through gritted teeth, her hand shaking as she wagged her finger in his face. She seemed so pissed off at Soap, Ghost couldn’t help but wonder what the sergeant did.
Ghost was watching the whole scene go down, the entire situation sending some alarm bells ringing in his head, not because of the animosity… But because Whiskey was loud and feisty. And he already had Soap to deal with, and now there was another one?
He didn’t even want to imagine what comms would look like between them, how they’d talk his ear off.
Whiskey turned away with a huff, shaking her head. “I’m gonna go set up shop. I suggest you do the same.” She told the lads.
“Wait!” Soap said as he stepped forward toward her. “What’d I do? Why do you hate me so much?”
Whiskey looked back over her shoulder, eyes locking onto Soap’s. Then, she looked up at Ghost and, for a moment, Simon swore he was seeing right into her soul and her right into his. Whatever reason she was pissed at Soap, it was bad, and he could tell.
“Just get to work and don’t piss me off. Gonna have to deal with you for three weeks…” Whiskey grumbled about Soap as she turned and walked off, heading downrange to her own overwatch coordinates.
Soap exchanged a glance with Ghost as she walked off, before softly murmuring. “What was that about?”
Ghost shook his head. “Fuck if I know. Just do as she said and get to your campsite.”
“Yeah…” Soap trailed off and waved a goodbye at Ghost before he headed out to his camp, following after Whiskey’s trail.

Night 1: 2000 hours
“I was thinking we take turns sleeping. 24 hours in a day, we could trade and do 4 hour straight of sleep.” Ghost suggested over the radio as he snacked on a protein bar.
“Copy that, L.T.” Soap replied, his voice chewed up, a clear sign that he was also eating.
“Sounds good to me.” Whiskey replied from her camp, her voice clipped and curt, even through the radio. “You can take first shift, Ghost.”
“I’d rather take last.” Ghost replied.
“Alright. Soap. Take first shift.” She demanded.
“Nae? I wanna stay up and speak to you about something.”
“No, you don’t.”
“Victoria, c’mon, I don’t even know what I did.”
“It’s ‘Whiskey’, Soap. I still outrank you and we’re still at work. Haven’t given you permission to call me by my name.” Her voice was so blunt and strong, Ghost found himself almost impressed.
“I’m sorry.” Soap ended up saying with a sigh. 
“Save your sorries. Go to sleep.” She demanded. 
“Aye, ma’am.”
It took a good half an hour or so, but soon, Johnny’s PTT was turned off, so, Ghost spoke up.
“Switch to 3, Whiskey.”
“Copy that.”
After switching frequencies, he finally spoke. “What’d he do?”
“Something he shouldn’t.”
“Cheated on your friend?”
“No. He’s stupidly devoted to her. At least from what she says.”
“Sounds about right. He talks about her a lot. Tires me.”
“Bet it does.”
“Then what?”
“Can’t talk about it.”
“Hm…” Ghost murmured. “Okay.”
-
Ghost was supposed to be sleeping. He really was. But with a new team member alongside them, he knew he wouldn’t be able to. 
Besides, he wouldn’t risk missing the shitshow of the other two bickering.
“So, how long have you and Meabh known each other?” 
“Longer than she’s known you.”
-
“How’d you meet?”
“On a ship.”
“Her ship?”
“No.”
-
“So how is it, being a Navy SEAL?”
“Fine.”
-
“So, how old are you?”
“Old enough.”
-
“Where are you from?”
“America.”
“Yeah, but which state? You’re obviously from the south.”
“None of your business.”
-
“You and Meabh ever work together?”
“Yes.”
“Where?”
“Classified.”
-
At one point, Ghost couldn’t help but start to smirk at the way the conversation was going. All throughout Days 1, 2 and 3 of their watch mission, she answered Johnny’s incessant questions with nothing but nonchalant dryness.
He could almost guess what answer she’d give and what tone she’d use whenever Johnny asked another question. 
While she had been sleeping, the Scot had confessed he had wracked his brain thinking of reasons why she didn’t like him and had come up short… And that he wanted to make friends with her, for his bird’s sake.
But he wasn't succeeding. She was cold and stubborn and curt with her answers, not giving him more than a few words at a time.
Even as the questions got more probe-y and personal… She gave him nothing. In a way, Ghost saw himself in her answers.
“What do you and Meabh usually do when you’re together?”
“Hang out.”
“Yeah, but what do you do? Go out for drinks? Go on holiday?”
“We hang out.”
-
“So what does Meabh tell you about me?”
“The usual.”
“Elaborate?”
“No.”
-
“How come Meabh has never shown me a picture of you?”
“I don't do pictures.”
-
“Why the mask?”
“To hide my face.”
-
It’s as the sun sets on Day 4 that she finally gets tired of playing nice:
“You know, Meabh described you as really cheerful and funny… But I don't see it.”
“Meabh sees the best in people. Don’t take it personal. She lies about you a lot too.”
“I’m not that bad, you know? I don’t know what your problem is with me but… I’m just trying to befriend ye.” Ghost can pick up on Soap’s annoyance in his tone of voice.
“I wish you wouldn’t.” Whiskey replied.
There’s a long, long moment of silence before Johnny tries again.
“How often do you and Meabh talk?”
“Often enough.”
“I miss her a lot when I’m on missions… Can’t talk to her steadily…” Soap admits, this time a lot more sincere. “Do you miss her too?
“No.” She replies. 
“No? Do you not like her the same as she does you?’
“I do.” Whiskey tells him. “But I’ve got ways of communicating with her.” She announces. 
“How’s that? Sending a letter and waiting weeks for a reply? I’m not satisfied with just that. Need to hear her voice… and she doesn’t have signal out there in the ocean…”
There’s a sound from the radio, which Ghost can swear is a snort from Whiskey laughing. Then, she speaks again.
“Can you see my camp from where you are?”
“Yeah?”
“Alright well, take a look at this.” 
Out of curiosity, Ghost decides to turn his binoculars toward Whiskey’s nest too, and adjust the focus until she comes into view.
“It’s a real shame that you can’t talk with your girlfriend.” Whiskey said while waving a black radiotelephone in the air for them to see. “I wouldn’t know anything about that.”
Ghost smirks at the sound of her sarcasm, shaking his head, already anticipating the dramatics that Soap would engage in.
“Wait, you’ve got a phone to talk to Meabh WITH?!” Soap’s voice is so loud and high-pitched one would think he just suffered the greatest betrayal.
“Oh yeah, I’ve been speaking pretty consistently with her the past 4 days.”
“No?!”
“Oh yes.”
“That’s it! I’m going down there, I want to talk to Meabh!”
“No you’re not, don’t you desert your post!”
“I’m not deserting! I’m going to you!”
Ghost has to turn off his PTT so he can laugh without them noticing. Soap had been talking about Meabh for forever, talking the ear off anyone who’d listen, raving about the girl and how much he loves her. At this point Simon feels he himself is dating her with how much he knows about her… 
And now, here was her best friend, showing him just how much higher she ‘ranks’ in the girl’s consideration.
Turning his binoculars toward Soap’s nest, he watched the younger sergeant slip out and, under the shadows of the rapidly approaching night, rush out behind the treeline, dashing toward Whiskey’s nest about 2 kilometers out.
“He’s really going over.” Ghost murmured into the PTT.
“I know he is. Meabh is laughing over it.”
“YOU’RE TALKING WITH HER RIGHT NOW?!” Soap shrieked into his own PTT. “Tell her to hold on!!! I want to hear her voice!!!!”
Ridiculous, Ghost thought as he heard Soap’s desperation. How ridiculous it was to be so obsessed with a woman. Girlfriend or not.
By the time he reached Whiskey’s station, after a few minutes, Ghost got to watch a flurry of limbs happening.
And, after a moment, Whiskey came back onto the PTT. “Ghost contact Laswell, Soap needs to be sent on medical.”
“What happened?”
“He tried to get the radiophone off me, so I broke a couple of his fingers… And his wrist. And kicked him in the balls.”
Ghost pressed his lips together to stifle a smile. He shouldn’t be as amused as he is… But God, is the situation hilarious.
“Rog.”
