#confession 1115

[star-trek-fandom-confessions]

In response to 1115:

Blaming Spirk fans for Gay Sulu not being accepted in the AOS fandom is incorrect.

The gay Sulu drama was started by George Takei himself. The actor who played Sulu originally didn't want them to make Sulu gay just because he himself was gay and says that Sulu was written as a straight character and he was actually pretty pissed to find out Star Trek: Beyond went forward with the idea and he was not quiet about this opinion. It was a real dark stain on the 50th anniversary.

That being said, Takei would agree with not making Spirk canon instead of making a new character or couple as that was his whole issue with what they did with Sulu. Something like Paul and Hugh are exactly what Takei wanted in Beyond.

Kirk and Spock were not written to be gay and that's fine by me. Star Trek's canon gay representation all sucks so bad I wouldn't want to know what they would do to Kirk and Spock in the attempt to make them queer anyway.

Nights at the compound were far from quiet; the constant opening and closing of doors, scattered footsteps, echoed voices - everyone on different sleep schedules.

You were in your room settling down for the night, lying in bed and listening to music, scrolling through your phone when you hear the sound of scuffling from behind your door - the silhouette of booted feet appearing under the gap. 

Unplugging your earphones, you sit up, noticing the familiar leather from under the slither of light. You fling off your covers and rush for the door, face lighting up when you see who is on the other side. 

"Bucky?!" you blurt out, clearly happy to see him. "What are you doing back so soon?" you ask, tone elated. 

His smile widens, grinning boyishly at you. "Came back before heading out again," he shrugs casually, speaking as if it were all that easy. "...was missing you," he admits, eyes diverting away bashfully. 

Your head tilts to the side, nose scrunching from his sweet confession. "I missed you," you widen your door, silently inviting him inside. "Only a little bit," you add, expression mirroring his.

Bucky steps into your room and shuts the door behind himself, closing the distance between you with a brisk step forward - leaning in to kiss you, soft and sweet. His hands settle on your waist, fingers sliding under the fabric of your t-shirt to feel your skin - flesh warm and comforting against his.

You rest your hands over the sides of his face, palms cupping his cheeks as the kiss grows more desperate. Carnal. "How long til you leave?" you ask, voice muffled against his lips, your words sounding needy. 

"Fifteen minutes." 

He walks you backwards, heading for your bed, his hands eagerly roaming you as he lays you against the edge of the mattress, slotting his lower half between your spread legs. He hovers above you, his cock growing hard and strained behind his pants, bulge nudging up into that warm spot between your thighs. 

"We can make that work," you reply, a slight whine to your tone.

He hums, far too entranced by how you feel against him to respond coherently. The rush of blood swelling to his cock, leaving his brain. Bucky peels from your grasp and stands between your spread legs, looking down at the lewd image of you - lips bruised and plumped, eyes half-lidded, t-shirt exposing the underneath of your pretty tits. 

He loved how you usually looked, but this was just on another level - you obscenely desperate for him and him only. Your eager eyes following his every move, looking over him like you couldn't get enough.

Your gaze hones in on his hands, watching him undo the button of his pants, his fingers slipping down the front, pulling his hardened dick from behind the waistband. You follow suit, urgently pulling down your pyjama bottoms and flinging them aside - leaving you in only an oversized tee, lying near naked under his fully clothed self.

His left metal hand takes hold of his cock, leisurely rolling it in his palm as his other reaches between your thighs - fleshed middle finger sliding up and down the slit of your pussy. Fingerpad circling over your clit ever so deliciously, mindlessly rubbing the sensitive nub.

"We don't have long, James," you say softly, hand reaching for his wrist, fingers wrapping around his meaty lower arm.

He slips off his jacket, revealing a black compression top underneath. He stands between your legs, blissfully unaware of how good he looks right now - tight, short-sleeved top, black combat pants pooling around his thighs, pretty dick exposed and on display. 

"Wish we had longer," he murmurs, itching himself closer.

"You're back in two days, right?" you say, instinctively adjusting your hips - widening your thighs to accustom his frame.

He pushes his head through the slick of your cunt, coating the tip in a soft, creaming sheen. He hums in response, his thumb resting atop his cock as he guides himself into you, easing through your fluttering walls. 

He leans over you once more, weight anchored on his hands either side of your head, dick sinking into you so nicely - just you taking him so well.

You reach up to cup his cheeks, holding his face in your hands as you maintain his gaze, your features growing pliant under his attention - eyes softening, brows knitting, expression mirroring his. You meet in the middle, lips clashing eagerly. 

"Can't you pretend to be sick?" you murmur against his mouth, speaking desperately.

He slowly begins to wind his hips into you, cock consuming you from the inside out. "I can try to get out of it," he replies, his voice hoarse and strained from the way you wrap yourself around him.

"Please do," you whisper, latching your lips back onto his - kissing him hard, moans muffling.

"Why?" he whispers back, a soft smile lining his lips. "Do you miss me?"

"No." 

"No?" 

You faintly shake your head, eyes playful and unconvincing. "No." 

He plays along. "Neither do I."

Bucky continues like that, fucking into you, his leisured pace growing rushed by the second, winding into you more ruthlessly than he would've liked. Usually, he would take the time to work you up - make love to you, kiss and touch and caress you, but with the minutes growing shorter and shorter, less and less, he had to switch it up. 

It doesn't take long for you both to cum, your climax hitting you hard; his cock almost choking you, repeatedly knocking the air out of your lungs. His release follows mere moments later, spilling his warm, thick load - sloppily pumping it into you. 

His forehead rests against yours, both of your breathing erratic, slowly beginning to even out. "Sorry, my love. I got to go," he whispers apologeticly, pressing a kiss to your hairline. 

Sweetly nodding as you push his stray hairs back, looking at him with a knowing expression he's grown familiar with. 

He kisses you once more and peels himself from you, standing back between your thighs - dressing back up. He looks down at you, eyes raking over you as if to savour the image, memorising you before he goes. 

Adjusting your t-shirt, you follow after him, the patter of your bare feet trailing after him like a shadow. He reaches for the handle and turns back to face you, his soft, gentle eyes filled with warmth. 

"I'll call you when I land," he smiles, speaking like he's reading your mind. 

"Be careful, yeah?" you reach up, meeting his initiation for kiss.

"I always am."

𐙚 THE THREE STAGES OF DATING PARK SUNGHOON.

𝒏o𝓉ℯs. park sunghoon with fem!reader 𖥔 ݁ strangers to fling to lovers, absolute fluff. LIB? word count `1115 a revamp

` —IN ALL REALITIES, i want to be tied to you by heart.

001. from a fling to newfound lovers.

sitting beside the window, you watch the rain pouring down hitting against the glass and slipping like drops of tear. the music in your earphones blaring into your ears like you’re in a different world, numbing like an apocalypse. the bus stops for a while and a minute later you feel the presence of one sit beside you; it’s sunghoon, he runs a hand through his slightly wet hair trying to brush off the raindrops and adjusts his blazer before he looks at you with a rather brazen look on his face. raising his brows cockily and reaching forward to pull out one of your buds, to put it in his ear.

as he takes your hand resting on your lap into his, fingers intertwining with yours in a gentle squeeze, you look at him questioningly, “i thought you were going to take your car?” he smiles faintly turning his face to return your gaze, not a viable response, just brown orbs staring at you. his other hand moves to trace his ring on your index finger, the one he gave you this weekend, “wanted to spend some more time with you.”

it was almost ten at night when you had gotten his text to come outside, that he had something to say to you. he ended up confessing and asking you out after you got into an argument about him treating you like you were a summer fling; things could have ended in so many different ways but you’re grateful that for once the sunghoon you knew, put his ego and pride behind and admitted his wrong.

and now that he has entered your life, your world, you wish nothing but for him to stay as long as he can in there. you know this might not go on for forever but however long it may be, you want to put all your heart and efforts into it. it’s just your second day, you have a long way to go, “then let’s go to school together from now on, be it the bus or your car.” and sunghoon swears his heart has never felt what it felt when he heard your voice just now..and your smile: the first love kind. perhaps his first love? only time could tell him.

002. the step to a vulnerable heart.

“your eyes are so pretty,” he blurts out, staring at you with hearts oozing out of him,“sunghoon, i’m literally crying here,” you laugh with a pout, pulling out tissues from the box to wipe your tears and the mascara rolling down the skin of your cheeks. “but you still look so pretty, like a doll.” grinning lazily he holds the side of his head, leaning against the back of the couch while admiring you like a piece of artwork.

it makes you feel even more emotional than you already do,“i look like a mess not a doll” glaring at him playfully, you softly hit his thigh,“but i love the you mess.” his smile grows wider and brighter, pupils dilated, his warm presence feeling like an invitation to neverland; like peter to your wendy.

“stop being so cringey or i’m going to start bawling my eyes out again.” and as if on que you pause for a moment before breaking down again “stop being so pretty then- i told you not to go to that reunion” sunghoon scolds you as he takes the tissue from the grasp of your fingers and holding your face, delicately wipes the falling tears, thumbs caressing the top of your eyes giving it a gentle massage. you weren’t planning to attend the said reunion but the hopes of rekindling your friendship with your ex-bff and clear out the misunderstandings from high school overcame your desire to skip it.

instead all you got were harsh words and false accusations, something sunghoon had already predicted would happen but now all that matters to him is for you to feel better. though it’s true that in his eyes even a mess you look like an angel from heaven he’d rather see you without tears of sadness. he holds onto your hands and kissing your knuckles pulls you into a hug, patting your back in a kind of comfort you know only he can provide. to him you are one displayed at the greatest of exhibitions. a private room where only he can admire the work of emotions.

003. your honeymoon ever after.

you look at sunghoon with confused eyes as he abruptly stops after closing the door to your apartment and turns to you. taking out both of your hands which were previously in his coat pockets he grabs your cheeks, squeezing your face with a lovestruck smile and heart eyes. he pecks the tip of your nose,“your face has gotten cold, i’ll have to kiss it warm,” grinning he plants another two kisses on your cheeks, then the top of your eyelids then your forehead, then three on your lips,“it’s a bonus.”

later when you’re in the kitchen making some hot chocolate and coffee for you both, he comes in, grabs your hand and starts placing kisses on your knuckles before rubbing the skin of your hands between his palms to warm them more,“sunghoon, the heater is on,” you look at him wanting to see what he has to say. he nods giving a lovely wide smile,“i know, just- your hands are precious,”

the next time he behaves this way is an hour later when you’re cuddling in the balcony, stargazing together in the pillow&blanket fort you both made there. he makes you sit between his legs with your back against his front and hugging you from behind, leaving smooches on top of your head,“your hair smells nice,” he mumbles between his kisses, it makes you laugh. just what exactly has happened to him. after he stops you put your head in the crook of his neck and ask,“are you okay, baby? why are you acting like this all of a sudden?”

he locks eyes with you and in a stare of pure love and adoration,“i just realized how lucky i am to have you, you’re so precious and i love you so much. thank you for being with me,” with that he presses another kiss to your temple and hugs you tighter. soon as he’s way into dreamland, snoring softly, you look at his peaceful face and peck his lips with a smile,“i love you a lot too, thank you for coming into my life.” he definitely heard that even in his dreams.

BEYOND THE BENEFITS PT.2 // H.FORT

summary: Hector and you have been friends with benefits for some time now, but you begin to feel jealous when Hector starts spending time with other girls. But one night, at Marc's party everything takes a turn.

content: friends with benefits! , angst

warnings: physical fight but no injuries mentioned

words: 1115

The next day, Hector heads to football training with his Barcelona teammates. They all notice that he's in a particularly sullen mood. Usually, he's the life of the party, but today, he's quietly seething. Because of one girl, the girl he has known for years but only came to discover his feelings for her recently.

Marc, trying to keep things normal, approaches him like he usually does, but Hector gives him the cold shoulder, avoiding eye contact. The tension between the two best friends is palpable.

During a practice match, Hector and Marc's tension reaches a boiling point, and it all explodes in the form of a physical altercation. Hector starts by pushing Marc a bit too hard, and Marc retaliates, the two of them trading blows.

Lamine, noticing the escalating fight, rushes over to separate them. He yells, his voice breaking through the chaos, "Hey, hey! Stop it! ¡¿Qué os pasa?!" ("What are you guys doing?!")

Lamine physically pulls Hector and Marc apart, holding them back from each other. They're both panting and seething, glaring at each other with a mix of anger and frustration.

The rest of the team stands by, surprised and shocked by the sudden clash between their teammates who were known for their tight bond. Some players exchange worried glances, while others try to appear unaffected by the tension.

The coach is furious seeing his players engage in a physical altercation on the field, and he immediately pulls them both aside.

"What the hell were you two thinking?" he scolds them. "You're supposed to be teammates, not enemies. You're acting like children. Both of you, on the bench!"

The coach gestures towards the bench, his stern gaze fixed on Hector and Marc, making it clear that they are not to rejoin the game until they've sorted out their issues.

Once they're seated on the bench, Hector slumps down, his shoulders slumped and his head hung low. The weight of his regrets and mistakes seem to crush him as he breaks down and apologizes to Marc.

"I'm sorry," he says, his voice hoarse. "You deserve her more. You should be the one she's with."

Marc is taken aback by Hector's sudden confession, but he quickly catches himself. He shakes his head, a mixture of amusement and disbelief in his eyes.

"Soy amigo de un idiota," ("My friend is a dummy,") Marc retorts, a smirk tugging at his lips. "You couldn't be more wrong. She's in love with you, you fool. You're the one she's been pining over this whole time."

Hector looks up at Marc, disbelief written all over his face. "Pero que estás diciendo?" ("What are you talking about?") he asks incredulously. "She would never... I mean, she and I... we're just..."

Marc rolls his eyes, exasperated with his friend's obliviousness. "Yes, you two are just 'friends with benefits,' but that's because you never had the guts to tell her how you really feel. She's been crazy about you for ages, and you've been too dense to notice."

As Marc sees that his friend has lost all hopes of gaining your trust again a plan forms in his mind. He turns to Hector, a glint in his eye.

"Alright, listen up," he says. "Here's what we're going to do. I'm going to convince her to come to the match today, and then, when you score a goal, you're going to dedicate it to her in a way that she can't mistake it for anything other than a confession."

"Thank you Marc, I think that was the easiest plan you could come up with" Hector said his voice leased with sarcasm.

You had reluctantly agreed to come to your friends' football match, primarily for Marc's sake and to stay away from Hector, but guess what? Number 32 was playing too.

The match had commenced, but each time your eyes caught sight of Hector on the field, a flutter of emotions stirred within you, painful reminders of the complicated feelings between you both.

Just as you were about to stand and leave, unable to bear the sight of him, Hector scored a goal. Without hesitation, he ran towards the stands where you were, heading directly towards you.

You stood frozen, torn between the desire to escape and the overwhelming presence of his gaze fixed upon you. He stopped right in front of you, his chest heaving as he caught his breath from the run. His eyes searched your face, filled with an intensity that left you breathless.

Hector stood there, captivated by your presence, barely acknowledging the fact that he had just left the field mid-game. Instead, his focus was entirely on you as you started to ramble nervously about his unexpected action.

But as the words spilled from your lips, he didn't appear to be listening to the words themselves. His eyes were fixed on you, completely mesmerized by the sight of you before him.

He couldn't hold back any longer. The pent-up emotions and longing took over as he passionately pulled you towards him and kissed you. Right there in front of everyone, he poured his feelings into the kiss. It was more than just a declaration of affection; it was a confession of how deep his love ran, how his feelings for you surpassed anything you could have imagined.

He longed to communicate all this through the kiss, to make you understand that you meant so much more to him than you ever thought possible.

As he kissed you, everything else melted away, and all that mattered was the connection between the two of you. The field, the crowd, the game—none of it existed at this moment. All that mattered was the intensity of the emotions and the depth of his feelings for you, which he expressed through every movement of his lips against yours.

You break the kiss, your heart racing from the intensity of the moment, but also knowing that the match is still ongoing. As you gently remind him of this, he leans in and dodges your face to be close to your ear.

"I love you," he confesses and swiftly leans out.

With a mischievous glint in his eyes, he quickly pecked you on the lips before dashing back onto the field, leaving you stunned by his boldness. However, the sight of him receiving a yellow card while grinning like a fool caused you to burst into laughter.

Hector, in the end, realized that his feelings for you ran deeper than anything he had ever known. The boundaries that had once seemed to define your relationship blurred until they faded away entirely, replaced by a love that embraced both of your personas. He loved you beyond the benefits.

Post-Winner Island Fic Roundup

Now that the end of the Winner Island fight has been animated, I'm sure there are people looking for some catharsis. I thought I'd round up the fics I've written post-chapter 1081 (and now episode 1115). You'll find a mixture of gen, Heart Pirates-focused and Lawlu fics here:

"Aftermath" (PG | Gen | 1,122 words): The aftermath of the fight at Winner Island.

"The Heart Is a Thing to Be Broken" (PG-13 | Lawlu | 5,514 words): The Straw Hats learn about Winner Island.

"My Heart in Your Hands, My Hands around Your Heart" (PG | Lawlu | 1,908 words): In Luffy's lowest moment, Law takes Luffy's hand and promises that his story will not end.

In Law's lowest moment, Luffy takes Law's hand and promises the same.

"Your Heart, Broken in My Chest"* (PG-13 | Lawlu | 3,661 words): Luffy was far from an expert at having someone else’s heart in his chest, but he was pretty sure what was happening with Torao’s heart wasn’t normal.

AKA, Law and Luffy switched hearts after Wano, and Luffy feels Winner Island happen.

"My Heart, Fragile in Your Hands"* (PG-13 | Lawlu | 2,380 words): “I failed them,” Law whispered, and it felt like a confession—like at church in Flevance. Confession was supposed to absolve someone of their sins, right? He doubted there was a god anywhere who could absolve him of his. And yet, he confessed at the altar of Luffy. “They were my responsibility, and I failed them.”

Or, Law wakes up in the Sunny's infirmary after Winner Island.

"Our Hearts, Made Whole in Each Other"* (PG-13 | Lawlu | 2,312 words): Luffy cupped Law’s cheek with his hand, softly grazing his thumb over a yellowing bruise. “Torao is so pretty,” he said quietly, a note of awe in his voice. Law flushed. “Torao’s heart is beating so fast.”

“Yeah,” Law agreed, swallowing. “It is.” Luffy’s, despite a few flutters, was beating steadily in Law’s chest. Law, on the other hand, felt pinned to the spot, one hand holding Kikoku and the other in Luffy’s grip.

“You should stay.”

Law blinked. “What?”

“You should stay,” Luffy repeated. “On the Sunny. With me."

"From the Ashes" (PG-13 | eventual Lawlu | 3/? | 10,811 words): Blackbeard takes Law and the defeated Heart Pirates captive after their defeat at Winner Island.

"A Thing Both Terrible and Beautiful" (Explicit | Lawlu | 3,525 words): Law wants it rough, wants it to hurt, because it’s what he deserves after losing everything. Again.

Luffy knows he needs something else.

"Cursed"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,411 words): After Wano, Jean had never been prouder to sport the Heart Pirates Jolly Roger on his back, tattooed over the slave brand that had marked him as cursed for so many years.

But they had failed Law on Winner Island.

Jean had failed him on Winner Island.

"Celebration"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,689 words): As the Heart and Straw Hat Pirates celebrate the jailbreak of the imprisoned Hearts, Shachi tracks down a guilt-ridden Law and offers his captain some moral support.

"Loyalty"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,264 words): The only solace the Hearts had after being taken captive by the Blackbeard Pirates was the revelation that Bepo had gotten Law away from the battlefield. They’d all sworn in Wano that they would do whatever it took to protect their self-sacrificing captain, and any of them would have made the same choice, had they been able.

They were the Heart Pirates, and Trafalgar Law was the beating heart at the center of the crew. They would hold out until Law came for them, and they would give the Blackbeard Pirates nothing.

"Night"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,131 words): Their rescue comes at night.

"Food"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,217 words): “Sorry for borrowing your kitchen without asking. I just...”

“It’s fine,” Sanji said easily before starting to roll up the cuffs on his sleeves to his elbow. “You wanted to make something for your people, didn’t you?”

“I...” Clione blinked in surprise. “Yeah.”

“I get it,” Sanji said. Once his cuffs were rolled up, he crossed his arms and leaned against the side of the counter. “It’s how people like us show our love, right?” Sanji went on. “Through our cooking.”

"Caught"** (PG-13 | Gen | 1,283 words): Maybe this wasn’t such a bad death, Hakugan thought as he felt darkness beginning to encroach on his vision. He’d been on the crew of a Warlord, had helped in the fight that defeated two Emperors, and had seen more incredible, unbelievable things than he would have once thought possible; it had been a much more fulfilling life than he would have had if he’d stayed in his boring, backwater home in the North Blue.

He would never regret agreeing to join Trafalgar Law all those years ago.

He only hoped that his captain would somehow live on to fight another day; as long as Law lived on, so would the Heart Pirates.

"Lost and Found (You)" (PG-13 | Lawlu | 7,554 words): Five times Law and Luffy almost lost one another and one time they did something about it.

Hiiii could you do Percy Jackson x reader where the reader is Annabeth’s best friend and Percy is dating Annabeth but is really in love with the reader (they send looks to each other) and one day (Percy and Annabeth broke up but reader feels guilty because that’s her bffs ex you know?) they have a private conversation where they’re really close together (like in a janitors closet) and they’re about to kiss but the reader is like ‘I can’t do this’ (HELLA ANGSTY) and you can decide if they get together or not <<333

Percy Jackson x Child of Apollo!reader

Gender: Gender neutral i think to tired to check AHAH

Warnings: cursing

Word count: 1115

A/N i dont really like the ending but i had no idea how to end it also i made it child of apollo cause i swear i thought it said that in the request HAHAH

You stared at Percy and Annabeth. They were on the dock leaning into each other laughing at something. Your glad Annabeth was finally happy and enjoying life. Even if it hurt your heart that the person she was happy with was the guy that you're in love with. 

Percy turned his head to your direction. You locked eyes for a minute before Annabeth got his attention again. You felt so guilty for even liking him and it wasn't helping with how he acted around you. You sighed and looked down, closing your eyes and holding back the tears. 

You got back to what you were doing which was archery. You notched an arrow and pulled the string back. You let go and it hit the target right at the center. You were a child of Apollo which naturally made you good at archery. 

You didn't know but Will your brother was watching the whole time. You were his sibling. He didn't want you to be sad, especially over a boy. So he made a plan. A plan to get you alone with Percy Jackson even if you just confess your feelings and nothing comes of it. He hoped it would help. The plan would happen in a few days.

A few days before Will’s plan that you had no idea about would happen Annabeth came into your cabin crying. You got from your bed worried for your best friend. You got everyone out of the cabin quickly and took Annabeth's hand to sit next to you on the bed. 

“Hey hey hey what's wrong?” You asked as you stroked her back trying to comfort her. 

She wiped her tears as fast as they came trying not to appear weak. “Percy h-he broke up with me. Gods I'm crying over a boy” She rolled her eyes but her tears continued. 

“He broke up with you? Why” You were angry when you said it. Even if you loved him Annabeth was your best friend no one would hurt her if you had any control over it. 

“I don’t know” She threw her hands up and continued “H-he said it just “wasn’t right” what does that even mean?” 

You sighed and continued to stroke her back. “Want me to beat him up?”

You said it jokily but if she said yes you would do it no question. 

She laughed and her tears slowed. “Its ok you know ill be fine i hope and hes just a stupid boy” She got up and started to leave. “Thank you Y/N for being here for me”

You smiled and replied back “Of course Annabeth i'm your friend” 

She smiled back and walked out.

 That night you layed in bed and just cried. You tried to be as silent as you could which you did successfully as none of your siblings woke up. You felt so guilty for even liking your best friend's boyfriend and now they broke up. Even though it probably wasn't your fault you still felt guilty. Eventually you cried yourself to sleep.

***Time skip***

It's been two days since Annabeth came into your cabin crying. It's been pretty awkward around the whole camp after her and Percy broke up. Everyone tried to make sure they were separate when doing anything at all. 

Will was sure his plan would work. He was planning on doing it soon and was trying to find an excuse as to why he needed something to get you alone with Percy. 

That day you ended up being pulled into one of the closets in the big house. You were about to scream when a hand clapped over your mouth. Whoever it was turned on the light over head and revealed themselves. It was Percy?

“What the hell Percy you scared me” You whispered to him. 

He smirked at that then it dropped off of his face “Listen we need to talk” he said 

You narrowed your eyes at him “What could we possibly need to talk about Jackson? you broke my best friends heart”

He closed his eyes and sighed. He probably felt guilty but he should honestly you can't break up with someone and not give a reason other that “It didn't feel right” 

“I know and I'm sorry about that but i cant keep lying to her” His breath hit your face and that's when you realized how small this closet really was. You got out of his grip and backed up to the wall. It didn't help much but at least there was a little more distance between you. 

“Lying to her? What were you lying about?”

“I-im in love with you not her”

Your eyes widened and he stared at you waiting for you to reply. “What?” You were so confused that was the only word you could say in the moment. 

“I'm in love with-”

“No no no i heard you i just cant believe you actually fucking said it” 

He seemed shocked at your angry tone. You continued “What do you want me to say Jackson?” 

“I want you to tell me how you feel about me. I know you must feel something i see the way you look at me” 

You didn't say anything so he moved closer, erasing the distance you created. You looked up at him and saw his eyes dart to your eyes then lips. He leaned down slowly to where your lips were almost touching. Before they could touch you ducked under his arm, your back facing the door. “I can't do this not to Annabeth she's been through enough” 

You opened the door and walked out. 

You were crying the whole way to your cabin. Luckily no one noticed and you made it there hoping no one would be inside. You weren't lucky this time Will was sitting on his bed messing with some bandages. He looked up and say you crying you stood in the doorway just crying. 

Will got up and walked towards you. He closed the door then brought you to sit next to him on his bed. “What's wrong?”

“Stupid boys Will” you sniffled as you said it. His eyebrows furrowed and he guessed “Percy?”

You laughed at his first guess and nodded your head. Will quickly got rid of the plan in his head if Percy made you this upset he didn’t deserve you. 

“Im sorry Y/N you don't deserve this” 

“Its ok Will ill be ok” 

Days went by when you found out Percy and Annabeth got back together. It hurt too much to tell Annabeth what happened but at least she's happy again. You and Percy didn't talk about what happened ever again.

Hi Detective, the next files will probably be Rum's arc resolution or pre-resolution. To your opinion, what will happen, can we expect a confrontation with Wakita, another Kudo comeback, Heiji helping Conan? Do you think Muga, working for the Ooka's safety in some way, could know something about the BO?

I brought up some of my predictions at the end of this review:

Gosho had also recently teased in Animal Crossing that next case was gonna be a Heiji-Kazuha centric case at Mt. Takao, so it's as good as confirmed to be the official Heizuha confession case.

I could therefore see this confession plot get followed by Rum development with Rum's Kudo Shinichi pursuit plot progressing, similar to Crimson School Trip (ShinRan confession) aftermath case, that lead to the Shinichi pursuit plot getting introduced. As soon as Rum's Shinichi goal is resolved, it will mark the resolution of Rum arc, since it's the only immediate-issue for Rum that is left unresolved.

I feel like bringing Uhura into the conversation around 1115 undermines the argument as it derails it from the discussion about Sulu. It may seem like an equivalent as Uhura is black and Sulu is Asian but it's not.

Uhura's hate from some Spirk fans doesn't necessarily come from her being black but rather her being a her. We know this because SNW Spirk fans were treating Christine the same ways AOS Uhura was treated and both of them are treated the same way T'Pring has been treated since the 60s. Yes race may play a factor to the severity or types of attacks being made but that isn't the reason the attacks exist. Any female dating Spock will be treated with disdain by those who believe him to be gay. Uhura isn't special in this treatment which means the main motivation isn't race.

I don't think race is the leading motivation for the supposed anti Sulu campaign Spirk shippers apparently launched either but I also don't have a clue what OP is talking about as I, a Spirk shipper in the fandom at the time, never saw anything about Sulu being gay in a negative light outside of Takei's one interview and one thing is for sure in this fandom: Spirk shippers are never quiet about not liking things.

Without an example of what was said OPs experiences are OPs experiences and I can't prove if what they are talking about is actually racist attacks against Sulu or not because I never experienced it.

I will say that based on how the Spirk fandom behaves in general, the most likely case is racist statements were being made by a small group of Spirk shippers OP came across who never made it mainstream but were loud in their own echo chamber and therefore saying Spirk shippers in general as a whole did this is an exaggeration.

Also people not seeing Spock as white because he's Vulcan is stupid, but people not seeing Spock as white because Nimoy was Jewish which is a minority white or not, is an established discrimination Jews face in white centric countries. So keep in mind when talking about Spock's supposed whiteness that white people might not be operating under the idea that Spock, or Kirk for that matter as Shatner is also Jewish, are white at all and if your friends are saying they don't see Spock as white...they might have other reasons for saying so that they either don't register they have or don't want to admit to.

And just to round out my thoughts on this conversation, this happened 8 years ago, and I think the fact that people have to pull fandom receipts from nearly or even over a decade ago to be mad at Spirk shippers about says a lot.

“I loved the owl house season 1 but the part where Luz gets to be in all the tracks bugged me. I think it would have been better if Luz and the other characters who didn't want to pick one track just became good friends. Maybe each character joins a different track and they all go to the owl house and teach other. Then in the finale, it would make more sense that people stood up to Eda (considering no one really cared earlier). Idk if that's what other people think, but that's what I think.”

“I dont get the hate w/ Gabrinette. People only focus on 40s yr old man in a relationship with 15 yr old. Rather than looking forward to see what happens in the 10 yrs. Things change as the years go by. It's not uncommon for someone in the mid 20s to be in a relationship with someone who's in the same as their parents. Nor is a person who is dating someone in the same age as their kid. I have met couples who are in the type of situations; Many are mature. The hate for the ship is judgy & shallow”
