#chapter 320

[afternoonteawithme]

back on my overthinking game but this panel totally made me try and remember how many times Clara speaks to/can understand creatures no one else can?

Gonna have to reread to check (no hardship) and honestly this could just be a cute totally in character moment that has no other meaning. But then again this manga sure does love to sneak in little hints all over the place

Chapter 320: Secret Romance

“So will I see you tonight?” Ted asked as he prepared to leave Jack’s hotel room. Despite their passionate night together, he was still hungry for more.

“I’m afraid not,” Jack replied. “All I have to do is sign my new contract this morning, and I’ll be done with my business here. If I don’t return to Torenth today, my father will start asking questions.”

“Just tell him you want to do some sightseeing while you’re here,” Ted replied.

“I suppose I could,” Jackson said. “But I’m not in the same position you are, Ted. I’m not out to my parents. I’d really rather not give them any reason to be suspicious.”

Ted shook his head.

“I’m tired of sneaking around, Jack,” he said. “I spent half my life hiding who I was, and now I have to hide from your parents, too?”

Jack turned away, frustrated.

“I’m sorry,” he said. “I know how hard this is for you. But as the youngest of three sons, I’m not going to inherit a title or money. My parents have given me a roof over my head while I built my writing career. I can’t jeopardize that – at least not yet. This contract gets me one step closer, but we’ll have to see how sales of the book go before I start making any long-term plans.”

“I know,” Ted replied. “But you know that I’m here for you, right? If things go badly, you can always stay with me.”

Jack turned and smiled, taking Ted’s hand.

“Thank you,” he said. “But our relationship is still pretty new. I’d rather not add any unnecessary pressure. I promise, when the time is right, I’ll tell them. But until then, let’s just enjoy our time together.”

Ted sighed.

“So you’ll be leaving today?” he asked, sadly.

“Yes,” Jack said. “But it’s for the best. In Torenth, we’re both pretty anonymous, but here, you’re a Prince of Weston. Chances are, the press would eventually get wind of our relationship. I’d rather not go public that way if we can avoid it.”

“I guess you’re right,” Ted said, shrugging. “But promise me that, when I get back to Torenth, you’re mine for a couple of days.”

“I already told my parents I was planning to go skiing with some friends,” Jack said. 

“Good,” Ted said, pulling Jack back into an embrace. “Then I’ll see you when I get back to Torenth next week. Until then ….”

Ted kissed Jack deeply.

“Don’t you have a garden party to get ready for?” Jack whispered.

“Don’t remind me,” Ted replied.

Not nice to use Robin's trauma like that!!

Wow the new arc stated strong!!! And good

Poor Robin!!!

But really nice to see everyone defending her, specially Zoro

unwise decision Luffy

Also what does this guy have with Robin? She is so cute she can't be bad

[calekinnieplus]

"…Is that so? Interesting. So you're saying that Monica trained both you and him?"

"Correct. We were beaten by her a lot, but he deserved it. Me not so much."

"Deserve it? Why?"

"Just cause."

For someone to have a system and yet still be unable to follow instructions, he deserves to get whatever beat down Monica gave him.

I love their friendship so much T^T

Chapter 320 - cover page

[pttucker]

"You deliberately…!" –I'll see you in a week. Remember what I said? Prepare well. I could hear Han Sooyoung shouting something. They were mostly curses. The next moment, my body disappeared in the light. There was a short dizziness from the forced dimensional movement. I opened my eyes with a small groan and saw that I was thrown into a dim darkness. By the way… I didn't come alone. "…Why did you come?" I turned to see Yoo Joonghyuk holding onto my shoulder. "I can't just watch you do your crazy plans again." As expected, this guy knew what I was going to do. "Those crazy plans have saved you so far." "Where do you plan to die alone?"

Dokja when fighting Joonghyuk for the star: "You don't need to control me, I swear I won't do anything like that ever again!"

Dokja at literally the very first opportunity given to him: Pulls the exact same kind of stunt right in front of Joonghyuk

YOU ARE NOT DOING A GOOD JOB OF CONVINCING HIM, DOKJA

YOU ARE NOT DOING A GOOD JOB OF CONVINCING ANYONE!

Oh, but Joonghyuk immediately grabbing onto him and allowing himself to be teleported off to who knows what fate because he can't just stand by and watch as Dokja throws himself at death again. 😭

[sunflowercider]

Yoinks your tags bc yeah. yeah.

javier realizing how much he cares for lloyd, how deep his loyalty to him runs, how ready he's to lie down his life for him, not because he's the son of his lord, not even really knowing exactly why he feels like that but just being absolutely certain that lloyd is his friend and he can't allow anything to harm him

And yet, why am I trying so hard to protect him? He had no way of knowing. But one thing was clear. It was a very simple matter. I want to protect him. Lloyd is my true master in my heart. Lloyd was his friend. And now, Javier wanted to protect Lloyd. He would sincerely protect him with everything he had.

he doesn't even know why!! he just knows that lloyd is his friend and his true master in his heart and that's!! more than enough for him to decide he's willing to put his life and everything he has in the line to protect him!! i'm just!!

Caught [Mini Verstappen Series]

Dad!Max Verstappen x Fem!Reader (Established Relationship), Max Verstappen x Fem!Reader x Lando Norris (Platonic)

Summary: Lando swears he knocked before walking into Max's hotel room, maybe he should have yelled before opening the door.

Warning(s): 18+ Implied sexual content, accidental?? voyeurism (Lando)

A/N: Little deviation from the normal chapter for this series as there is no Nico. This is an out-take that I just couldn’t hold onto any longer. It does have a bit of adult content, and although this series didn't have any before it was fun to work out of my comfort zone for this while helping me cure my writer's block.

This is a scene I reference in the third social media post in Through Max's Eyes. You get to finally read what happened in Barcelona 2023 with Lando, Max, and the reader.

Lando

After the disappointing race today Lando needed to get out of his head a bit. He had suggested to a few of the drivers about going out to a club to get drinks and blow off some steam.

He heard back from almost everyone except Max, who wasn't replying in the grid group chat. He knew that Max was probably on the phone with Y/N or talking to his son Nico after the race.

He didn't really understand how Max could manage his son, girlfriend, and career all at once.

He had asked Daniel which was Max's room number at the hotel they were all staying at. Daniel had texted him back, 331.

Lando was making his way down the hallway as the numbers kept going up.

300 - 320, on one sign 321 - 340 on another.

He followed the hallway down until he got to 330. Then on the opposite side was 331, the door was cracked open a bit, maybe Max forgot to close it all the way when he had come up after the race.

He knocked, waiting a moment, and knocked again a little louder but heard nothing back. Maybe Max was playing FIFA or had headphones on and wasn't paying attention to the door.

Lando pushed the hotel door open to walk into the room.

"Max?" He asked, his eyes scanning the room before he heard a breathy moan come from behind the open set of double doors.

This should have been Lando's cue to leave Max's hotel room and make sure to close the door behind him. But his feet pushed him on towards the sound. Maybe Max was watching a movie or something, or on the phone with Y/N. There were lots of possibilities.

He walked closer before his eyes met the empty bed. It was as if his ears had finally picked up on the sounds in the room. There was the sound of someone moaning again.

His eyes fell to the floor, shoes discarded, navy team polo by the chair in the corner, a pile of black fabric kicked off to the side. He shifted his gaze to the opposite side of the bedroom.

Lando's eyes started their ascension at the carpeted floor, scanning upwards. Black high heels and bare feet, large hands reached down to pick the girl up, before she settled her legs around the guy's waist. He could barely make out that this guy had his jeans undone. A black bra strap fell off her shoulder and started to expose her to him.

"Zo goed voor mij." He heard in Max's voice but deeper in tone. It was barely above a whisper hearing the guy tell her how good she was for him.

"Max," Lando's ears had never heard you sound like this before. Yearning, desperate. He saw what he knew were your hands moving up a broad back before a hand dropped to the band of blue denim jeans trying to push them down.

“Zo wanhopig voor mij.” There was the voice again, his understanding of Dutch catching up with him again calling her desperate, but he wasn’t sure if he wanted to know for what.

Being in the room watching made sights and sounds seem like two different things that blended into one another.

He watched as the guy leaned down a little kissing to tops of the woman’s breasts, he seemed to stay there for a few moments, possibly lapping at the skin with his tongue.

“Ahh.” He heard from the girl, seeing her throw her head back towards the wall. The man pulled away, reaching up to kiss the woman again.

His eyes eventually followed a delicate hand up to short brown hair, seeing a stubble-peppered cheek drop out of his view. Causing the woman to move to the right, covering both of their faces from his view. As the man pulled away from the woman and looked to his right, lips swollen and chest heaving for air.

Lando met the eyes of Max as if it fully dawned on him who he had been watching.

His eyes jumped up the wall and then back, to see Max standing there in his unbuttoned skinny-jeans, and Y/N, against the wall in nothing but heels, and her underwear with her bra straps falling down her shoulders, with her legs around Max’s waist.

"Lando?" He heard from Max, their eyes meeting for a millisecond, blue on hazel.

Lando bolted out of there, leaving his question and the ability to look Y/N in the eyes behind him. He pulled the handle of the door along with him, the loud bang made his ears ring for a few moments.

Lando rushed down the corridor, room after room not paying attention to where he was walking as he kept shaking his head at what he had just witnessed.

“Hello Lando,” He heard from Pierre and saw him standing there with Daniel.

“Lando,” Daniel said, “You okay mate?”

Lando just shook his head no again, looking down at the horrible pattern on the carpeted floor. He couldn’t tell Daniel or Pierre what he had walked into, they would never let him live it down.

“It cannot be that bad.” He heard from Pierre.

“It’s pretty bad.” He moved to lean against the wall, knocking his head into it.

“Come on, Lando.” Daniel started to say, pulling him away from the wall.

“Okay, but you have to swear you won’t tell anyone else, not Charles,” He said to Pierre, “And not to Martin.” Lando pointed at Daniel. He knew that Max was close friends with Martin, and he didn’t want Martin to know that he had walked in on Max sleeping with Y/N. He didn’t think he could deal with the teasing.

They both nodded back at him. Yeah right.

“Have either of you ever walked in on your parents… you know…” He kept trailing off. He couldn’t say going at it. It felt wrong.

Pierre looked at him for a moment, and Daniel said nothing before Lando saw the recognition fill both of their faces.

“Oh, Lando did you walk in on your parents growing up or something?” Pierre teased at him.

“No!” He objected. “Not my parents…” He took his time getting the words out.

Time to break down the story in full detail.

“I went to see if Max wanted to go get drinks at the club after the race. I walked to his room to see if he was going to go, and the door was open a bit. I knocked, but no one answered, so I went in. I saw…” He trailed off. “I saw Max and Y/N going at it.”

“Lando, Y/N isn’t here. Isn’t she in New York for some work conference or something?” Daniel said. He moved to pull out his phone as if he was going to text Max and ask.

Lando reached for it to stop him.

“It was Y/N, I swear it was.” This whole thing just rubbed Lando the wrong way. Max was his friend, and Y/N was Max’s girlfriend. Lando knew that Max had sex before given that he had a kid, he just never thought he would see Max actually about to do it for himself one day.

“It’s fine, we believe you, that it was Y/N.”

“Lando.” He heard coming from down the hall. There stood Max in dark wash jeans, and a white button-up shirt, and holding his hand was Y/N in a black dress that cut off at her thighs.

Shit! Eyes to the floor, eyes to the fucking floor man.

“Lando,” He heard from Y/N. Her voice was almost motherly in tone. It just made an uncomfortable shiver run down his spine.

“I’m sorry,” He blurted out, hanging his head. “I didn’t mean to see. It was an accident, I swear.”

He couldn’t look at either of them. Sure, Max was only older than him by two years, and Y/N was right around the same age as far as he could guess, not that he actually knew how old she was.

“It’s fine Lando, I’m sure you didn’t mean to see me and Max-” Y/N started to say.

“Going at it like rabbits,” Daniel interjected behind them.

“What are you talking about Daniel? We still had clothes on.” Max stated. Lando knew that was half a lie. Max had clothes on, and Y/N was pretty close to having nothing on. Lando couldn’t help but think back for a moment to the image that flashed across his mind, it was oddly erotic and would have been hot if he didn’t think of Y/N as a type of mother figure in his life.

“Yo, Einstein. You can’t detail a car with the cover on,” Daniel quotes to the group. Lando looked up just slightly, enough to see Pierre who looked confused.

“What do you mean, can’t detail a car?” Max asked. “I was kissing my girlfriend, Daniel, I wasn’t thinking about a car.”

“Really? The first Fast and the Furious movie. I’m disappointed in all of you.” Lando could see the happy expression fall from Daniel’s face. If it were any other time, and anything else was going on Lando would have remembered what Daniel was quoting, but as of right now he was a little too mortified to do so.

“Whatever,” Lando said, turning to Max and Y/N but didn’t make an effort to meet their eyes. “I’m sorry I walked in without making myself known. It won’t happen again.”

“It’s fine Lando,” Y/N said to him. “I’ll just make sure the next time I try to surprise Max; I’ll tell someone first.”

“I like your surprises,” Max said, giving her a wide, eye-crinkling smile. He pulled her into him, and Lando dropped his eyes to the floor once again. Too soon.

“So… Drinks? Bar?” Daniel asked. Pierre nodded, and Lando followed quickly after. Max and Y/N however said nothing. The sounds of kissing quickly became audible to his ears.

“Max, mate.” Daniel started to say. “Maybe keep the necking in public to a min. We’ve got young eyes here.” Lando could feel Daniel’s hand on his shoulder after he said that. He knew that Daniel was just teasing him a bit, but he still didn’t like it.

“I’m not that young.” He fired back at Daniel.

“Uh yeah, you are, if you caught these two about to go at it and ran away.” Lando couldn’t help but roll his eyes. He was never going to be able to live this down, was he?

“Have you?” Pierre asked as they walked down the hall towards the elevators leaving the couple behind.

“Have I what?” Daniel asked. Lando barely looked up to see Max and Y/N walking further down the hall in the opposite direction back towards Max’s room with a short wave given to all of them.

“Caught them, about to…” Lando trailed off again, he still couldn’t say it.

“Let’s just put it this way, when they want a date night. I’m the first person that they call.” 

Sometimes Lando forgot how close Max and Daniel were. “Don’t get me wrong, I love my godson but sometimes Max needs to learn to call in advance instead of the day of.”

“So, you haven’t caught them then?” Lando couldn’t help but ask. Them wanting date night together was one thing, but that wasn’t what Pierre had asked.

“No, I have.” It almost sounded like there was a bit of mischief in Daniel’s voice. “Trust me mate, you were lucky that you walked in when you did because if it was after that, you would have been scarred for life.”

Lando widened his eyes at that. So, Daniel was keeping all of the truly gory details to himself. He knew more, so much more, and maybe he promised Max that he wouldn’t tell anyone what they truly got up to in their spare time.

“Was Max running his mouth?”

“What do you mean?” He asked, back to Daniel.

“Like praising her, in Dutch?” He couldn’t help but nod at Daniel’s question. He was a little curious if he could get more information out of him.

“A bit.” He choked out.

“Good on ya, that you didn’t stick around.” Daniel slapped the back of Lando’s shoulder. “Come on, once we’re down at the bar, I’ll get you a drink. You need it after all you’ve gone through today.”

Lando tried not to think further about what he just heard. Obviously at some point in time Daniel had walked in on Max and Y/N and had a very different reaction then him.

He followed Daniel and Pierre down to the bar, letting Daniel order him something strong that would hopefully make the last 6 hours or so disappear, at least for a while.
