formulanews: Charles and Y/N have been interviewed together for GQ magazine, and they were asked about the nature of their relationship as teammates or friends. Charles said: “I think the world of her and I admire her mentality and race craft a lot. I also think she is a great friend to me and everyone around her, I don’t know why people think she isn’t. Y/N brings a lot of passion to the grid.” Meanwhile, Y/N told the publication: “Charles is a good guy, and a better driver. Being his teammate is fruitful; so is being his friend.”

Rubbermaid & Web-Boy | P.P.

You're the Black Cat, and you find out the face behind another masked vigilante is more familiar than you ever expected — peter x fem!reader sexual tension

warnings: some adult language

words: 0.9k

a/n: this is so self-indulgent omg I literally just wanted to experience some sexual tension with Andrew Garfield

The cool night breeze swept through your neatly tied white hair as you walked carefully along the banister of a roof above an abandoned building.

Being a hero is boring, you thought to yourself as you pretended to topple on the railing, the tight material of your suit making a small noise.

Perfectly timed, you heard a police siren in the distance. Looking towards the sound, you located the source, seeing the bright red and blue coming from a cop car.

As you were running towards the sound of sirens, you heard a noise behind you, something like a thwip followed by a whoosh, but you elected to ignore it and focus on the criminal activity a few blocks over. You heard it again a few moments later. As much as you wanted to ignore it again, it was an odd noise you knew couldn't be normal. 

You wanted to investigate those strange sounds, but before you could even turn around, you felt yourself being pulled against the wall, but it didn't feel like a person of any sort was doing it.

You looked down at your wrist and saw that it was stuck to a wall, being tied back by a web of some sort. You couldn't pull your hand off of the coarse brick wall, no matter how hard you tried. You looked up from your hand to find a sleek silhouette, dressed in blue and red spandex. You presumed that he was the one to do that to you, and you justifiably got angry. 

"What the fuck?! Let me go!" You said, slightly louder than you had expected.

"(y/n)?" The masked figure said in shock. 

You maintained the tone when you recognized the voice as one of your friends and asked "Peter?"

He froze in his tracks when he realized that he had just revealed his identity to you. "No." He said sheepishly. 

It had taken a second, but you had just realized that he was the so-called 'masked menace' that you had seen pictures and videos of all over the internet and the news. That was your best friend, and he had never told you. But to be fair, you had never told him that you had adopted a vigilante alter ego that you had never told him about either. 

"Peter, I know what your voice sounds like." You told him. "You're the Web-Boy?"

"Spider-Man, actually. And you're the, what, Rubbermaid?" He said, gesturing to your black suit that you had put together yourself. 

You let out a sarcastic laugh. "Very funny, I know the suit's a little rubber-like, but I'm the Black Cat." 

"I've never heard of you." He said. You wondered if he was jealous that there was another hero around Queens. 

"Maybe because I'm just better at this and don't have pictures of me scattered across every news station in New York." 

"Or maybe you're worse, and you just don't do anything newsworthy." 

Now you knew he was jealous of you.

"Excuse you, Parker." You retorted. "Just this week, I've saved a life, stopped five crimes, and even tied a burglar up and left him on the steps of the police station!"

 "Impressive. I've done twice that."

"Asshole." You spat, attempting to move your hand off the wall again.

"I thought you were a criminal!" He defended. "You're the one wearing an all black outfit and a burglar mask!" 

You were repulsed by the idea of being considered a villain, as you stood for justice and goodness. But if you were going to be honest, the idea intrigued you a little. 

"No, but I might become one if you don't let me go."

He laughed and took off his costume mask. You saw his face and could confirm that it was in fact, your best friend Peter Parker behind the webslinger suit the whole time. 

"You don't want to stay here and hang out with me?" He asked in a half-joke tone. “Wow, everything changes when you put on the superhero suit.”

You didn't laugh or say anything back. Instead, you responded by looking at him displeased and then gesturing with your head to your arm stuck being raised next to you. 

"Alright, alright, I'll let you go."

He pulled out a small blade from the black spider on his chest and cut the white strings so to let your hand free.

"What? No, 'thank you'?" Peter asked after he let you go.  

You started to walk away, then walked back to Peter just for a second, long enough for you to throw a quick punch. 

"That's for gluing me to the wall with your webs." You said sassily, then calmed your tone. "Now, don't ever do that again, or I swear I'll do as I promised before and just become a villain to take you down."

He started rubbing his upper arm where you had hit him to soothe it. 

You continued to walk away, but before you could even get off the roof, you heard him call you. "I'll see you in school, (y/n)!"

Pairing: Ex!Taesan x fem!reader x Wonbin

Genre: A little angst & fluff, exes to ?

Summary: Taesan isn’t quite over his ex and neither is she.

Warning: One curse

Notes: I did it. 😮‍💨 A little different from what I normally write but I think it isn’t that bad, lmao.

Taesan walked down the street on a cold day, on his way to work. The black haired rubbed his hands together in hopes of warming them, and then placed them on the pockets of his jacket.

As he continued to walk, he saw a café that he always passed by. Since he felt pretty cold, he decided to enter and buy himself a hot beverage.

He opened the door and stood in line, that luckily only had two more people. To pass the time, he looked around the place. It was pretty cozy and medium sized, there were also a few cats running around, a perfect spot to go when you want to have a peaceful time.

Just as he turned around to face the front, he spotted someone preeetty familiar to him.

Shit, he cursed. It was his ex, Y/n. They had broken off 6 months ago, after being together for almost 4 years.

To be honest, Taesan wasn’t over her; she was his first love and someone that made a very positive impact on his life.

But it looked like she was over him, not that he blamed her, but he would have expected her to be as broken as the boy was.

She was sitting on one of the coaches by the corner with four other people, he recognized three of them as her best friends but the other guy, that was too close to her by the way, was a stranger to him.

The black haired hoped that the girl hadn’t seen him, since he wasn’t prepared to face her just yet.

After what felt like hours, it’s was his time to order. He chose a hot chocolate, paid and waited by the counter, trying not to bring attention to himself.

Thankfully the barista didn’t take too long and before he knew it he was out of there. He released a relieved sigh and continued his way, until he felt someone calling his name.

Why God, why?, he whined on his head, shutting his eyes for a moment.

“Taesan?”

The boy sighted and turned around. “Y/n, hey.”

“How have you been?” She tried to make conversation; even if they hadn’t broken up in the best terms, the girl still cared about him and, to be honest, she missed him.

“Good, busy with work.”

“Oh, you have a comeback right around the corner, right?”

“Yeah, in a few weeks.” Taesan was surprised that she knew that, he supposed that she would have stopped listening to their music and paying attention to any news related to his group.

“Cool, hope it all goes smoothly.”

“Thanks, and you, what have you been doing?”

“Nothing much, business has been doing good.” Y/n had her own business, a cat café.

“You opened your café?” They would have always talked about it when they were together. It was just a dream back then when she worked a 9-5 job.

“Yeah! About 4 months ago. It’s actually that one.” She pointed to the place where the black haired ordered his drink.

“Oh, wow. That’s awesome, Y/nnie.” He looked at her with a smile. He knew how much she desired to run her own business. “I’m so happy for you.”

Just as he finished his sentence he realized he called her by her nickname, he cursed on his head.

“Thank you, Taesan. That means a lot.” She blushed a bit. “Well, I gotta get back. It was… nice catching up.”

The boy nodded. “It was, see you around.” There was a small smile on his lips.

“See you.”

Both of them released a breath that they didn’t know they were holding. Seeing each other really steered some feelings that had been there for months and helped with the weight they both carried on their shoulders. At least things were a little better than civil.

Taesan kept walking towards his company while Y/n returned to her establishment.

She walked towards the coach where her friends sat, taking her seat next to the guy with the long hair.

“Everything okay?” Wonbin asked looking at her.

She smiled. “Yeah, just saw an old friend.”

The boy nodded and placed his arm on her shoulders, going back to the conversation in front of him.

Y/N stayed silent, lost in thought.

What she had with Wonbin, her situationship, had a little over a month. She told him she was fresh out of a long term relationship and wasn’t really looking for another one, at least not in that moment. He understood and they just had been hanging out, getting to know each other more. It’s not like he was a stranger, he was a friend of a friend; their friend in common was Sohee, a boy Y/n had known practically all of her life, her childhood best friend, if you wanna label it.

He was a cool and attractive guy, she liked being with him. But she wasn’t really sure if she wanted something more with him, not after seeing her ex again.

Oh, love’s so complicated.

Boynextdoor masterlist || Main masterlist

[sixofravens-reads]

re: 2023 new releases. hope you're ready for a long message because there were a lot.

hot new releases/things that were relatively popular

He Who Drowned The World, Shelley Parker Chan (Chinese mythological historical, very gay, very stabby a la Baru Cormorant. Book 2 of 2. A particular favorite of mine from this year)

Witch King, Martha Wells (New fantasy book by author of murderbot fame. I didn't actually click with this one but I'd be remiss to leave it off)

House With Good Bones, T Kingfisher (Southern gothic rose horror by the very talented Ursula Vernon)

Translation State, Ann Leckie (high sf alien horror regency romance. Wheeeeee. I had a lot of fun reading this. You can read it as a standalone, but you get deeper context if you've read the ancillary justice series, also highly recommended)

Will of the Many, James Islington (futuristic roman empire aesthetic rigged murder school. Not precisely good but appallingly catchy, I read all six hundred pages in pretty much one sitting. If you liked red rising you'll like this, if you hated red rising you will Not)

OH YEAH THE ACTUAL NEW MURDEBOT NOVEL (System Collapse)

A Power Unbound, Freya Marske (book 3 of 3, magic alt edwardian romances with murder. This is more romance proper but it's about equal with the action plot and Marske is very good. I don't think you've read these so you'd have to start at book 1)

Some Desperate Glory, Emily Tesh (The book that absolutely knocked my socks off, my pick for the best sff release of the year. I forget if I've already told you about this one)

Starling House, Alix Harrow (Southern gothic house drama. Similar feel to Ninth House or The Book of Night)

The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi, Shannon Chakraborty (Divorced lady pirate adventure-drama a la Arabian Nights.)

Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, Heather Fawcett (Charming, heavily fairy tale trope themed, vaguely reminiscent of the Lady Trent books)

more obscure new releases from this year that I thought were cool, but not in the Hot New Reads You Can't Miss Because Everyone's Read Them category

Under Fortunate Stars, Ren Hutchings (sf timey wimey space shenanigans with aliens. Immensely cool premise.)

Small Miracles, Olivia Atwater (fallen angel sent to tempt a too good mortal. Extremely charming)

The King Is Dead, Naomi Libicki (vaguely persian flavored fealty romance, very heavy to the fealty. Original, thorny, and intriguing)

The Deep Sky, Yume Kitasei (What if we terribly traumatized everyone going on a generation ship by making them go to viciously competitive boarding school together and then act surprised when a murder mystery occurs. Heads up that it's more interested in the human drama than the SF worldbuilding)

The Saint of Bright Doors, Vajra Chandrasekera (early modern fantasy world anti-imperialism fever dream narrated by a cult survivor. Brilliantly written, spectacularly original, one of the best books I read this year)

Things for 2024, content warning for being (obviously) things I haven't read and thus without quality control

The Warm Hands of Ghosts, Katherine Arden

The Familiar, Leigh Bardugo

The Dead Cat Tail Assassins, P Djeli Clark

Long Live Evil, Sarah Rees Brennan

Goddess of the River, Vaishnavi Patel

The Woods All Black, Lee Mandelo

Exordia, Seth Dickinson

A Sorceress Comes To Call, T Kingfisher

Running Close To The Wind, Alexandra Rowland

Wow tumblr just lets me keep writing words. I didn't think they let me have this many in asks. Oh, and pro tip-- keep an eye out for tordotcom's most anticipated upcoming books for the first six months of 2024. They should be publishing it within the next week or so and I always add masses of books to my tbr from there.

oh holy crap, thanks!! I'll have to check these out!

thoughts on a few of em:

He Who Drowned The World - still have to read She Who Became the Sun lol but hopefully I'll get to em next year!

Witch King - Martha Wells has been recced by like All my sci-fi mutuals now lmao I REALLY gotta get into her!

House With Good Bones - THIS ONE IS ACTUALLY ON MY SHELF!! I just didn't fucking read it this year whoops. Very excited for new Kingfisher

Starling House - I was on the fence about this one since I really didn't like Once and Future Witches, but those comparisons give me hope! I'll add it to the library list!

Some Desperate Glory and Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries are 2/3 of the books published in 2023 that I actually managed to read (the 3rd is The Woman in Me lmao), I can't remember if you recc'd Some Desperate Glory, but it was SOOOOOOOO GOOD OMFG

Small Miracles - my aunt has been trying to convince me to read Atwater for quite a while, I'll have to give this one a try!

The Saint of Bright Doors - I have this one on hold!! Saw a post for it a week or so ago and it sounds absolutely delightful!

The Familiar - SO SO EXCITED for this one! I hope Bardugo is maybe...slowly....extricating herself from the Grishaverse and going to write more books not related to it... (not that they're all bad, I loved the Six of Crows duology, I'm just not into it anymore and I reeeealllly like her adult books lol)

Running Close To The Wind - oh yay new Rowland! I still haven't read her last book (the one with the guy on the cover who looked EXACTLY like my boss to the point where it became an Office Meme that [Boss] Is A Gay Romance Cover Model, still meaning to get a UK version of it but haven't yet) but I'll have to look this one up!

[narwhalandchill]

(soo ignition teaser thoughts ig)

hmmmm im ngl the trailer itself as a like prelude to what is coming in 5.0 intrigue and plot wise is like. compared to the region teasers that came before w lazzo and overture. its just. its kinda bad im sorry KWKJKWDJKWDJK like okay cool seeing the new cast and production value is high as always (+ music) but its such a middling teaser for the story itself?? it feels like a powerpoint presentation of the cast more than anything narratively coherent with an inherent draw and mystery

like theres mavuika speaking to the flame thingy (xbalanque that u? "one entombed in the primal fire" perhaps????) with some intrigue i suppose as well as her brief thing w capitano. ororon also appearing to be working together or aligned with capitano given theyre standing together there which could make for an interesting plot thread but beyond that its very.... eh. its not giving us a lot to grip onto ya know???? and thats rly a shame especially since i also felt that way abt the teaser in the 4.8 livestream. i wish we got more

and sure theres a tournament wahoo but like. its really Not helping to hype up that thing when half the introduced cast isnt being like "OMG the tournament!!!!1!1 this is HUGE!!!1" (or even. "oh no this is BAD!!!1" to set up basic conflict. like why would they dread it?) but instead just. "oh right... the tournament 🙄🙄" like who thought that was a good idea 😭😭 if the PEOPLE of natlan dgaf abt the big plot event happening then how am i as the viewer supposed to feel majorly invested in it . wow theyre tossing a ball around . wow nobody wants it guess ur tournament is having a bit of a PR issue in the making mavuika lmao

anyway i wouldnt even call myself a true capitano glazer despite being a fatuiHQ enjoyer on the side but like. that hmph still carried welcome capHIMpeaktano truly o7 JWDJWDJKDWJK also did yall see the. anemo-ish turquoise flare when mavuika is confronting (?) him? wonder if thats a thing with her flames or is it implying cap as anemo or sth.... i think itd fit him decent enough but ya. looking forward to HIM for sure

(+ congrats to him for losing the goofy timbs from arles animated short lmao like his design looks so fucking sick now)

character design wise uhhhh. well theres the obvious huge fucking issue here and while id say that hoyo p much already showed their true colors on the matter with sumeru that doesnt rly. make it any less disappointing and egregious wrt all the cultures and peoples theyre So willing to gather inspiration from in all possible aspects Other than the diversity of the people themselves. like its just... bad and such a shame but also not very surprising unfortunately.

(and really it just. looks especially bad given they clearly Can put melanin on people its just... enemy mobs only.)

beyond that i kind of dont have anyone that super catches my eye rn??? mainly because . well leaks moment eek but its basically official info now so basically. xilonens existence as a geo and a 5* (which like . u dont need leaks to guess she will be im sorry jdwjdw) was leaked a bit ago as well as the patch she should appear meaning. im actually in chiori rerun savings mode since its very high chance that she will be back w xilonen if anyone. so thats my plan for now kjdwjkdwjkdwjk

in terms of the actual cast i do like kinich and ororons designs v much, the design motifs of the latter especially are interesting bc those eye-like patterns are almost giving quantum symbol (= black hole imagery) to me???? and thats V interesting especially if hes actually working w capitano and the fatui. now him being a cat boy or whatever animals ears those turn out to be isnt like sth thats huge for Me personally but i do think hes valid and also W for anyone whos into that, congrats guys im happy for u ! but like fr itd be such an insane twist if hoyos Finally introducing the void quantum abyss whatever element w him (and maybe cap too.) bc that symbol Rly is looking Curious. or then hes just electro lol. for kinich its like. yeah fair he might be xiao-tighnari-gaming from minecraft ill admit that but. i do like the color scheme and his outfit a lot JKWJKDJKDWJKD so like i forgive it

w the girlies i overall find them all like. quite nice but so far without any personality + lore known its hard to settle my complete thoughts on them just yet. tho citlali being pink is super refreshing for genshin since we do have a shocking absence of it so like shes definitely one im drawn to, chasca looks interesting and like she could play a bigger part plot wise (maybe?) so that might be neat. both her and citlali being cryo is kinda surprising?? but cool. maybe ill get to unbench my shenhe and play some cryo teams again lmao freeze has been dead in abyss for so long now....

xilonen again w the kemomimi isnt sth im particularly into or not into but she looks cool, depending on personality and how her kit synergies turn out (+ assuming the chiori rerun, the fate of those pulls too), i might try for her as well? theres an Energy to her i like it. if she has proper Attitude and flair thats gonna be a massive bonus for me

mualani i think is rather bland to me, sth about her outfit and design just doesnt click for me even if the shark thing from the teaser before is neat and everything. the chibis are never sth im actively drawn to but like both do look okay, im kinda hoping kachina could be a lynette moment for 5.x and end up a free 4* since her exploration roomba looks p fun

anyway then theres. mavuika and i. well at least the design wasnt. That concept art one (ThoseWhoKnow...) . so instant massive W improvement solely on that basis holy fucking shit but ehhhhh im sorry i still dont know how to feel abt the very modern like. biker bodysuit thingy. im not a huge fan of the bodysuit type designs anyway so its not that surprising but still. her eyes + hair is absolutely stunning tho like not a question at all.

tbh in a way i kinda feel like having too many Thoughts on her design is kinda just unnecessary bc like. shes the archon. of Course the kit is going to be insane so i will get her anyway (UNLESS a pyro onfielder JKWJKJKWJKWJKWFKJ like god please no). and in terms of like is her design and energy from what this vid is giving us good enough that i wont like. Actively resent having to get her for meta and strong teams??? Absolutely. so in that sense ig its all cool lmao

but yeah. idk i just think as a teaser for the upcoming story its rly a shame how weak this felt for me???? like sure overture ended up being a bit of a misleading teaser since it gave the impression of arle as this mastermind of the fontaine AQ which didnt rly happen but it still served as a source of hype and intrigue. and yes lazzo is sth that can Never rly be beat in terms of how out of nowhere it was and how fucking insane the whole harbinger reveal went (+ elogia cinerosa existing) for lore and long term hype but its just. unfortunately those 2 are the regional teasers this natlan one is supposedly meant to parallel and it just didnt deliver anything comparable to those for me

like still looking forward to natlan and seeing the rest of its cast (like im fairly convinced the flame thingy might be xbalanque and hes gonna be a big deal ultimately or sth) and where it goes and all its environments but this trailer didnt rly. grip me the way i wouldve expected it to. which is unfortunate kdjkdwjkwjkdwj but yea thats all

A couple of Kuroshitsuji questions today, wow! Plus, some twst ones.

blackbutlerfandomnerddomain asked:

GODS YOUR GREENVIOLET COMIC!! FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCKKKK It's so good!! I love the idea Violet is somehow a lil kinky that Greenhill but Violet would somehow blame him for a mess in his sheets lol

Hehehe thank youuuuu!!!

I really like to think that Violet has a kinky side, but maybe it’s just because he is the artistic “weird” type and therefore more “in touch” with this hidden side of himself; compared to Greenhill, who is a proper polite boy, but also quite horny when the situation gets even a little bit spicy lol He’ll learn a lot of things about himself when he and Gregory start sleeping together.

Anonymous asked:

I see you like Black Butler. Let me ask you, do you have any art of the Undertaker of Grell? The way I simp is hard but if you don't, that is fine. Please remember to take care of yourself and drink water. Love your art <3

We don’t have any relatively new art with Grell, which is ironic, considering that Grell is the character that I always drew thorough the years whenever we rewatched Kuroshitsuji; I just love the design very much…

We do have some stuff with the Undertaker though! He is one of our favourites actually, even though compared to some other guys I haven’t drawn him much. Which is honestly a shame…

Thank you for loving our stuff! <3

recently I read a fanfic where idia was a cat beastfolk and got absolutely gang banged by octavinelle and I feel the need to share this thought with everyone because cat idia being fucked by octotrio lives rent-free in my head and I can successfully say that gregory violet art did not help

Oh god, a fic about Idia’s absolute true form lol And what a company for him to be in, of course he would get gangbanged by Octavinelle. Thank you for sharing, Anon… Now I’ll think about this concept too…

Gregory is such a kitty cat boy! This is insane, I always forget that technically when it comes to their animal symbols he is supposed to be a wolf. And even in the yesterday’s comic where he is supposed to be a wolf, he still has cat vibes. I guess this is just his and Idia’s genetics lol

Anonymous asked:

What does Idia think about cosplay in general?Personally I love it and I’m even going as Idia sometime this year.

Anon! This is cool, enjoy your time cosplaying Idia.

If I remember correctly, Idia does like cosplay to some extent – he did cosplay as Pumpkin Knight for Halloween, and definitely had a lot of fun designing, creating and wearing this costume. The only thing is that for Idia to actually want to cosplay a character it needs to be someone who has his head completely covered, because he isn’t comfortable showing either his face or his hair: even if you don’t know that his hair mean that he is a Shroud, it still attracts unnecessary attention… not to mention, ruins the cosplay :( So he isn’t really a cosplayer, but if he is in the mood? He’ll create anything from scratch in like 3 hours and do the most perfect cosplay imaginable.

But! He has a lot of opinions about others’ cosplay. About how they did the hair, the clothes, the swords, the details, every single thing. He appreciates the artistry and creativity, but he is also a bit of a snob.

Referring to the headcanons about Ortho putting things in Idia’s food and drink, I suddenly see why he pees in a bottle 😔

Yeah, this is also a reason lol but honestly he doesn’t need Ortho’s “help” with this… he really is the type to go “I finish this one level and THEN I’ll go” and basically sits there until it becomes unbearable. A very bad habit!

I don't even know what my top albums of the year are, but here are some I discovered this year that I really liked, so that I don't come across as ONLY a hater. Linking my fav track, or one of my fave tracks, on YT every time.

Molllust - Mother Universe (A glimmer of hope in the irradiated wasteland that is symphonic metal at present. Also one of the four female-LED metal bands I know. Like with a female composer! Such wow!)

Knights of Heliopolis - Ferrum Fero Ferro Ferror (ditto about the hope thing. Also they have an operatic bass frontman and holyyyyy shiiiit that is the best thing ever! I keep fangirling about this band but they used to be called "Phoebus the Knight", so that's the tag that's in.)

Nostra Morte - Sin Retorno (A flicker of light from the NON-wasteland that symph was 12 years ago)

Silent Opera - Immortal Beauty (ditto. Oh how I wish for soothing rain and some fucking OPERA VOCALS in the fucking OPERA GENRE. Why is symph metal full of COWARDS and CASUALS? I know I sound like Holden Caulfield, but that's because he's right and my role model.)

Nanowar - Dislike to False Metal (Power Metal, Nanowar being awesome as usual. I link perhaps one of their less surprising songs bc I'm a sucker for that Rhapsody stuff but plz listen to the whole album, it also has tracks like this - great variety really, and greater wtf! I gently pat Gatto's head and wonder what he will do next, clearly he's called Cat for a reason.)

Elina Garanca - Habanera (These are just some famous arias, but her voice is really nice! Dark-voiced mezzo-sopranos rule the world!)

Snowy Shaw - White is the New Black (I have been listening to this so much lately. Somehow I always ignored his solo work after the Notre Dame stuff except for some of his singles, but this album is actually really really cool! I don't know which genre it is lol. Metal Archives says "Heavy Metal", but that doesn't really describe it so well. Snowy has a lot of personality, and so does his music. Just click! You may not even regret it!)

Wolfenmond - Can't pick an album... Galdra (EP!) I guess. Folk metal or medieval rock with a woman who doesn't get forced to sound cute.

Grendel's Sÿster - Myrtenkranz Heavy metal / folk metal with a woman who REALLY doesn't get forced to sound cute. As SATW said, women should be respected, but sister Germany should be feared. Damn straight. This is an EP, same music first in English, then in German.

Kornalyn - Intemporel (French acoustic folk, revolutionary communist and anarchist songs. This guy is a folk song recording MACHINE and I like almost everything he releases.)

Therion - Leviathan 3 (I still wrestle with this album. A lot! I also know from past experience that in retrospect I'm more likely to regret not including it than I am including it.)

I also watched like 20 operas this year in an attempt to be a little less of a poser in the genre. I don't know which I would recommend the most. Wagner's "Die Walküre" touched me the most, both in terms of story and of pure epicness of the music. Kinda wiped the floor with everything else :/ It seems Wagner is the only one in opera who isn't shit at plots. Lohengrin also had a good story! Vivaldi's "Juditha Triumphans" (not technically an opera but an oratorio, but really I don't care, it's basically an opera) and Bizet's "Carmen" (I'm not linking that, there are 8945098340 good recordings, just find one that looks appealing to you) had the most pleasant music.

I also liked Alessandro nell‘Indie by Leonardo Vinci (no relation). I link my favourite scene. Don't worry about the lack of English subs, the plot is 4 hours of soap opera. They did a very traditional staging of this, like back in 1730, which means it's all countertenors and sopranists, half in drag. Thus it pairs nicely with the all-female Vivaldi one above. Back when women were real men who led armies and men had fake boobs or danced under falling rose petals singing about love, LIKE GOD INTENDED! TRADITIONAL VALUES!

Hello! Just wanted to say I'm a huge fan of the way you draw Wrioney, so very tender and cute 🥺 Your artstyle is overall quite nice to look at as well!

Also, seeing how the dynamic you set up for them in your art is somewhat different to how they interact canonically, I was curious if you could share how you felt ab them after 4.1? Did their "bickering" discourage or inspire you with new, fresh ideas?

hey there! thanks so much for liking my art of them :") it means a lot! and also thanks for wanting to know my opinion of the ship itself and not just the art, too! warms my heart.

short answer: the 4.1 archon quest did leave a bad taste in my mouth, yes, but i got over it and realized wow. i love wrioney so much and i would rather have this than any other cookie cutter "perfect/wholesome" dynamic

long answer/explanation under cut!

first off, pre-4.1 wrioney's setup was just too good for me to pass up and hit all my fav points. cat (chat noir) + dog (cerberus) dynamic??? criminal x prison warden???? wriothesley's tareme eyes to lyney's upturned ones? cute! not to mention i liked how their color palette matched more than the other popular ships. they seemed like they were made for eachother. we also had 0 crumbs for wrio's personality at that point so i assumed he'd be the serious to lyn's playful flirt.

shipping in this game to me has always been a bit on the shallower side, and thats fine! some of these characters never get to "grow" with dynamic character arcs really and remain "static" to have their profiles make sense when you pull for them. they can never be directly antagonistic to the player and have to be "redeemed" in some way. 76++ characters and not all of them get time in the spotlight, either. thats fine too.

that all changed when fontaine came out. and even more when 4.1 did.

wriothesley's personality was a joy. i love morally dubious and fun characters like him, the kinds that dont really fit into a "box" or trope!! genshin's good at making characters like that, just as they are good at the tropey ones. i also didnt mind that he canonically isnt above torturing, too. heck, i mean i love kamisato ayato who is basically what the game sets up as the male version of arlecchino + diluc burning an abyss mage and kazuha's tongue branding comment were one of my favorite moments. i thought wrio being cruel was very much in line for a prison warden. it made sense. what didn't make sense was the way the game needed to show this.

i loved lyney the moment i saw him in the travail trailer. his thing with his family another one of the best things to come out of genshin. fucked up orphans and found family who are villains? actually so good. but because they are what the game wants us to see as "unequivocable villains", they also get... disrespected in the story a lot?

the way i saw it, the game wanted us to see wrio as the "cool/badass hero!!!! wow your grace you're actually so kind for not killing them!!! see guys he just looks cruel and antagonistic but he's actually so morally good!!!also here's like 3 cutscenes of wrio looking cool ^_^" while lyney's treated like an "overemotional kid" really rubbed me off the wrong way. everything else was fine. i just got tired of the game insisting that the fatui are so bad no matter what and the rest are ""good"" when their whole thing in fontaine was doing away with the black and white morality. the devs seek to promote greyness but they cant even write that right?

what wrio did to them truly probably wasnt even the worst lyney and his siblings have been through, i know this for a fact. honestly wrio could have killed freminet and it'd have been like. reasonable for him. but he's a big softie who has a thing for lyney i think which is why he thought a lot about them not coming to physical harm.

but after once again accepting that midhoyo just wastes a lot of potential and reconciling the dynamic of past wrioney i had in mind (also uh. writing a fic of them for closure when i've never done anything of the sort before)... i realized theyre the best thing ever actually

enemies to lovers isnt always my cup of tea, but for context i shipped shuake before this so i feel like that primed me for this genshin ship in a way LMAO.. i actually must thank wrio for showing this new side of lyney, the viciously overprotective of his family side that i thought would never be shown, only alluded to. its mesmerizing.

and the thought that lyney, mr. masks and fake-smiles-that-dont-reach-his-eyes wouldnt bother to keep up pretenses with wriothesley anymore since he coaxed that darker side of him effortlessly? really nice.

even traveler who lyney notoriously charms and flirts with gets the mask immediately after the confrontation at the duke's office, the second lyney recharges with his siblings by his side. the beautiful thing about lyney's character is that he is always fake.

but with the duke? i wouldn't be so sure. maybe his real side, claws and bared teeth, comes to light with him and him only.

and that... goes back to the "character going through dynamic arcs" thing i mentioned in the beginning that genshin lacked. now i may be reaching for crumbs here, but i'm pretty sure this ship is the closest thing we'd get for lyney ever going through a character arc. wrio too. when i say they were "made for eachother" i think i realized that it's because they both have parallel backstories. i wont spoil too much for wrio's stories and voicelines, but it's safe to say wrio also has trouble with trusting others easily. something him and lyney can relate on lol. not to mention the orphan thing... ok i wont say more.

i love that their personalities clash so catastrophically. i love that i can never predict what genshin will do next with them. this all makes shipping them so fun. i have literally never had as much fun with shipping for this game since.... ever! really. as the game evolves, the character writing and by extension their interactions with eachother do too. and i'd say it's an improvement. i'm hopeful for the future :]

@untildarknesscomes

[insufferable-homestuck]

wow!!!! this classpecting assigning thing you do seems so cool!!! ive taken some quizzes and *think* i might be a prince of space but its always good to get peoples assessments on you personally rather then relying on unknowing and unloving machines! I can dm you also if you think checking out my blog would be helpful! :) 

Some things about me

Autism (i know, i'm so cool) Very interested in creative subjects (music, art, acting) An extrovert! But a shy one?? Like i get energy from talking with people and get iffy if i haven't seen or spoken to someone i like in a while, but also i hate meeting new people and events drain me so much that i have to recharge by talking to people online, but usually its by talking not just doomscrolling sort of? AWFUL at arguments, even at joke ones, i’ll always get stuck in my head and run out of comebacks and sit there appalled thinking of how to come back from my cringe fail behaviour I’m extremely forgiving of people I'm close with, even if they anger me, I'll never really blame them for much? At least not outwardly, might be fear of abandonment idk shrug

Ummm AWFUL at romance, gets stuck in my own head about if someone would like me or not and then never makes a move ever ever ever and just stays close friends with that person and it usually works out (curse my wrenching heart!)

Treads the line between being annoying fr and being too self conscious about being annoying when people assure me i'm fine (But i'm being fr when i say sometimes i'm a pain in the ass!!) Not very confrontational? At least not alone, usually ill go and try to get someones help to back me up (due to sucking at arguments) Hyper empathy, i feel such a connection to objects and inanimate things, like i have cried about leaving soft toys behind AT MY AGE because i feel as if no one  will come and get them. 

Very silly (this is pertinent!)

Will probably not get along with someone for long unless we have 1 shared interest or an interest that is 1 degree of separation from each other (like i'm not into genshin at all but genshin fans will at least understand what i mean when im talking about sopping wet meow meow troll or whatever)

Cat person, not a dog person, but more golden retriever coded then black cat coded

CRACKED AT GAMING

That's about it if you want more info like i said i am HAPPY to give more this is like when you go to a psychic and they read your palm or go to your childhood therapist and they give you like a 69 on your depression quiz and that's after you lied on it cuz your mum was in the room.

how's it hanging nepeta lalonde?

i appreciate the obscure amount of text, and your willingness to go as far as let me view thine blog for the sake of classpecting, buuuut all your listed traits did not make this easy at all! everything you've said contradicts itself in some way when it comes to classpecting! which is to be expected of course, you can't throw a magical label at a real, multifaceted, person and expected to stick like it would to a comic character, but yeesh

You call yourself a prince of space but you're interested in creative subjects, the prince part of that classpect becomes confusing!

You experience huge amounts of empathy but you're bad at romance, heart players usually don't swing both ways at that

if a heart player you're sure twisting the meaning of heart around! i hand you witch

and you don't seem like a prince of space to me, sorry, i know that classpect all too well, but i WILL give you rogue of void!

you're just a shy sweetie bless your heart

[bigdickevans]

i watched smile and wrote down my live reaction if anyone cares lol. long story short it was better than i thought it would be, the death/spooky effects were fun but it was kinda heavy handed with the mental health commentary

i went into this thinking it would be funny bad but. goddammit. ok i liked the opening.

the fucking back and forth shots of the main lady and the college girl’s faces, it set me up!!

then when it showed college girl had gotten up. idk man something about how empty and sterile the office is wigged me out even more.

and her cutting her neck was neato

at the title card now and alright goddamn it didn’t have to flash like that yeesh

oh also it sounds like this is just gonna be it follows but with suicide instead of sex

lord they’re trying to do mental health commentary. great.

ugh if i end up liking this movie i’m gonna be embarrassed

that cat’s dead. and nooo i don’t know that because i checked doesthedogdie.com

i was hoping the cat would smile lmao

WAIT THE BOYFRIEND

WHO IS HE

SLKJFLKSDF IT’S A-TRAIN

i’ve decided this takes place in The Boys universe

sorry i got so distracted by a-train that i forgot to say that main lady seeing the dead girl in the dimly lit kitchen did freak me out.

we’re back to the mental health commentary.

why does the cat have such a big fucking bowl

Young cop(?) dude gives me the creeps.

Haha sassy black coworker!! very funny and cool el oh el

ooooo i liked her passing the rooms and having to backtrack

bro is vibing stop snapping

im so sorry but this carl actor has a really silly voice

i feel like this boss also looks familiar

oh he was in designated survivor ok

actually i’ve been kinda constipated so maybe if i watch this on the toilet i’ll shit myself and finally be free

jesus this lady just can’t stop breaking glasses

none of this would’ve happened if you just KEPT YOUR HOUSE WELL LIT

WAIT STOP EVERYTHING

YOUNG COP CREEP IS THE EMO GUY FROM JENNIFER’S BODY

wow what a cast

i sorta missed the whole bit where she listened to the recording and heard stuff, i was unclogging my toilet

main lady and blonde bitch are sisters?? wow that went straight over my head until now. i knew they had to be related in some way? but i kinda thought the husband and the main lady were siblings

dead cat moment

love that they felt the need to clarify it was her cat lmao

when the boy picked it up it looked like really bad cgi

DAMN

TABLE SLAM KO

yeah babe sometimes you just gotta yell it out

SLKDFJLS THE PAIN ASSESSMENT CHART

im sorry… mental health preachy message aside, are you telling me the fiance had to look up the fact that mental illness can be hereditary??

for some reason i feel like the main character’s spiral happened way too fast

but to be fair i guess she does have that trauma with her mom, so maybe even though she works in healthcare she’d still be more susceptible to this line of thinking?

the number of times they say ���crazy” in this movie is getting ridiculous

love a good smashed in head, i appreciate they didn’t add a loud noise with it considering the amount of jumpscares in this fucking thing

thank god horrible events always happen to artists so we can have ooky spooky drawings

these “coincidences” are so obviously connected it’s ludicrous that literally nobody noticed until now

I mean cops being inept is nothing new i guess

main character is being? unbelievably unreasonable here?? yes, calling a mental health professional is what you’re SUPPOSED to do when someone around you starts acting like this

i thought one of the whole points of this smile demon thing was that it could look like anyone? they haven’t really been utilizing that as much as i assumed they would which is a bummer

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

loved that moment with the sister at the car

it is kinda neat that the death has to be super dramatic so it inflicts as much trauma as possible

but also couldn’t you just do something traumatic that doesn’t involve murder or suicide?

like pretend you murdered someone or killed yourself in a crazy violent way in front of someone so they believe it happened, orchestrate a big practical joke

the demon voice is goofy

putting a knife that big up your sleeve seems like an atrocious idea

LMAO AWESOME DREAM

it’s like in chainsaw man. the whole door thing with denji. i’m not elaborating bc i don’t wanna spoil anyone.

the mom is kinda hot

lol i like how slowly rose closed the door

ooooooo!!!! suddenly tall mom!!!

i’m a tad disappointed with the monster design :/

HELL YEAH you thought a house fire could kill a demon?? lmaoooo

I TAKE IT BACK THE MONSTER DESIGN LOOKS RAD

rose the throat goat

hell yeah love a good person burning

[starsmuserainbow]

Some randomly chosen questions for a selection of my muses answered from this meme because I want to! Sorted more or less randomly, though I started with the muses I feel the strongest these days.

For Lightning, I'm gonna answer:

🪄 MAGIC WAND — would you describe yourself as a superstitious person (someone who believes in superstitions)? do you believe in luck? "Yeah right. No, I'm very much not superstitious. And if luck exists, it tends to be against me, so I don't really care to bother thinking if I should believe in it or not."

(and bc that was too short for my liking, another one for her:)

🌙 CRESCENT MOON — what would you say is your current biggest dream and/or career aspiration and why? "It would be really amazing to become one of these well-known, absolutely capable and powerful heroes. It's not like I do what I do for the attention or fame, but it's still a cool thing to imagine that people would recognize and look up to me, and stuff."

---

For Mia, I'm gonna answer:

🧪 TEST TUBE — if you knew you were going to die tomorrow, what is one thing you absolutely have to resolve and/or do before then? "Wow. Pretty grave thing to ask, wouldn't you say?" Mia paused for a little bit as she pondered the hypothetical situation. "I think I'd try what I can to still do some good. For unique people, or better yet for whole groups. No idea what that would be though, so if I'd suddenly be hit with this news, I guess I'd just be, like, patrolling the streets and trying to prevent crimes more like the actual heroes do."

---

For Moonshot, I'm gonna answer:

🤔 THINKING FACE — what three emotions tend to dominate your mindset? do you know why they do? "Anger. Confidence. Pride. They do because they are the most beneficial and important emotions to have as a tamaranean warrior." [[In not his words, it's more because of all of his experiences in the past and how he's more or less defining himself through his pride as a warrior and how he's always going to see Tamaran and Tamaraneans as the absolute best there is.]]

---

For Kage, I'm gonna answer:

🖤 BLACK HEART — what would you say is the darkest thought you’ve ever experienced? what do you think caused you to have that thought? have you ever planned on or fantasized about acting on it? "Dark thoughts are all I work with. Did you forget I kill for money? I doubt you can go much darker and colder than that." She was silent for a moment, not really wanting to continue elaborating. There were certain thoughts in her past that were somewhat darker, more gruesome, than others, but she was not willing to explain all of this so she just added a 'why' to be done with it. "It is all that life gave to me that caused this. And I have often acted on it before - as I said, it's what I do for money."

(and bc that was a lame answer, another one:)

⚡️ LIGHTNING BOLT — how has [significant event in muse’s life] impacted you? what has it made you realize about yourself? about others? about the world? "I'm not gonna explain what that event was. Be happy I answer at all." Kage grimaced at having to answer it. "It shattered the whole new life I had thought I was building. Again destroying everything I had. On the ruins, I built the life I have now, and what it made me realize is that I will not listen to or trust my heart ever again. It made clear that no one is ever to be trusted, and that that is how the world works. Everyone will betray anyone else at some point, it's better to just never trust in the first place."

---

For Cat, I'm gonna answer:

🎨 ARTIST PALETTE— what are some hobbies that you like to partake in? do you think they’re just to pass time or to distract yourself, or do you believe some of them potentially have therapeutic outcomes for you? "I very much enjoy reading books that tell a story. It helps me blend out my ability when I am able to immerse myself in a fantastic story of being someone else or joining someone on a fictional adventure. I also play the violin, the sound of it is just very soothing and calming to me."

---

For Galfore, I'm gonna answer:

🫂 PEOPLE HUGGING — generally speaking, do you feel very supported by the people in your life? how strong and cohesive is your support system, if you have one? do you often feel like you’re at the front of the line or pushed to the side by the people in your life? Galfore was silent for a little bit. "It is not my role to be supported. I am the one to support the people in my life., and I am satisfied with that." He did have his time of being supported, and it was only right to give back on that now.

[ciaossu-imagines]

Thank you so much and I feel the same. Seeing messages from you always brightens my day (be it here or in DMs). Also thanks for saying that I’m interesting. Black Cat has been on my To Watch List for so long now so I’ll be looking forward to seeing them when I finally get to watching it. And I recently added Kekkaishi to my list and like always have no idea when I’ll get to it but I’m also looking forward to seeing Rokurou and seeing what he’s like. And wow, by hand 😮 That’s amazing. I’ve only ever written my stories on my computer so I can’t even imagine the dedication, especially since my brain so often goes faster than my hands and it’s already difficult enough typing as fast as I’m thinking, so writing would have been extra difficult. Way to go you. And I’m glad that you’ve gotten healthier with the self-shipping and it’s so nice and cool that you lean more towards polyshipping when it comes down to your faves. I’ve never done that before even though as you’ve seen I do have multiple faves but considering I know myself and my faves I know that it’s highly unlikely I would be able to be with any of them because of our differences and I’m alright with that because I like seeing them for who they are on the screen and that’s enough for me. Also, I write my own fanfiction and always give them the perfect girl so that’s also nice. The only person I would have a chance with, not only in K but also out of all of my favourite guys, is Bandō (I think, still not great because of my great terribleness with words and I wouldn’t be able to reassure him the way I want like I do in my stories) and that’s more than enough for me so I’m happy with that.

That’s really cool. I don’t tend to deep dive all that much unless it’s necessary for my writing or something like that. For me I just watch the series (or read it) and as I’m consuming it I’m looking at all these characters and am taking in everything they do and say and that eventually gives me a good enough image of them (I feel like image is the wrong word here but I for the life of me cannot come up with the correct word so image it is). And then with that my heart decides weather I like / love them, dislike, hate or feel nothing towards them. And yes to some villains being terrific characters. I saw that you mentioned Naruto in the past so I’ll say that Deidara is my fave of the series. I had multiple faves in the past but out of all of them, he stayed so that’s nice because he’s just so fun and is like you’ve said before about other characters stupid-smart. I see. That does sound difficult. I hope these people become easier to deal with as time goes on. I’d say you still deserve my admiration because you grew from those experiences. You were a teen, still a child, learning about so much and you didn’t have the best people around you so it makes sense and it’s alright. And you grew from that and now know that violence isn’t the best option in those cases. Also sending a virtual comforting hug in your direction.

Way to go you 👏 And yeah, I saw that you said you deleted two in your announcement post. If any of them were mine, I’m sorry. Either way, sometimes ideas aren’t there and it’s okay even if it’s such a shame. And I’m glad you know who I am. I feel like I’m not very subtle so it makes sense. With Yata I’m not surprised since I’ve written essays about him, but even Bandō? Wow. Do you still remember what I said that made you look at Bandō in a new light?

Of course 💕 And gods, that bit about having to delete some good stuff that you’re attached to hit so close to home. I, some time ago, wrote a chapter that had everything it needed (guys being good friends (even saying they love each other), one of my OC’s social anxiety being shown in an unexpected setting, just overall good character and relationship stuff) but after some research I realised that that chapter didn’t make any sense for what I wanted to write (because I try to be as realistic as possible when I can) so I had to get rid of that chapter. Luckily I managed to write another one which had most of the same elements in it but it will never be that first version of the chapter and that’s such a shame. And yeah, very understandable. Especially since you write for so many fandoms. ‘Your brain is coming up with so many things that it’s hard to remember to get them all down in the rush of writing them down’ is such an attack that I didn’t need first thing in the morning but yes, true. My brain is constantly active, constantly thinking of things. Mostly it’s story ideas but sometimes all other things. Not only that but sometimes my brain jumps from one idea to the other because a thought made me think of something else so I go back to my room thinking about something entirely different than when I left. And yes to all of your ideas. For me when it comes down to the Bandō and Shōhei question, I think it’s a possibility that it just happened because Shōhei dropped out of school and went to live his life outside of it while Bandō finished his education and neither contacted the other. That’s all I have. Also since you mentioned Chitose and Dewa, I would have also liked to have actually seen his past with this girl that broke up with him because of how ill she was. And gods, Eric’s past would have been so heartbreaking but since I love Eric, I would totally watch it. And also yes to Yata and Kamamoto’s story because they’re so smol and it would have been so cute. It would also be interesting to see what made Kamamoto want to follow Yata at first. And all of those things about the Blues also would be interesting to see. Thank you 😀 They came to mind at some point when I was rereading those chapters and I’d do anything for answers. Though also what I’m interested in is Bandō at a young age, just to see what he looked like as a child. We got young Shōhei at different points in the past but no Bandō and that’s really such a shame.

Thank you. And thank you, it was. You did break my heart with that Eric story but I really enjoyed it so it was alright. The Mikoto bit at the end was especially beautiful. I also watched the last episode of the latest season of Demon Slayer and that was great. It was 51 minutes, so much longer than usual and since I didn’t know it would be that long, it was a very pleasant surprise. I also cried a decent amount. It’s amazing because even though I knew what was going to happen in a way, it was still emotional. Also, there’s this funny thing when it comes down to Genya (the other boy at the selection finale who was aggressive towards the young girls) is that his face always goes bright red when it comes down to girls. He’s worse than Yata and it’s so cute (though he’s a teen so more understandable). I’ll miss it because even though I wouldn’t consider it some grand masterpiece or something, I still always really enjoy it. But next season has some more scenes of my fave, Sanemi, so I’m just looking forward to that now. Also, there’s a promotional art of him with the same picture of him on one of my manga volumes which is just such a treat 😊

C

Aww, that always makes me feel so happy to hear you say that, so thank you! That was definitely needed as today was a rather stressful day at work, combined with a therapy session right after! And you are definitely interesting, so of course I’d say it. And I read Black Cat, and have seen the anime but don’t remember much of the actual anime itself. I loved the manga though! I hope if you ever get around to watching it that you enjoy it! And I’m sad to say if you just watch Kekkaishi, you’ll never get to see my boy Rokurou, I don’t really think! I’m pretty sure the anime stopped right after Gen’s arc, so they didn’t really animate a lot of the characters I love!

I don't think the manga ever gets to this point and I know that he looks really unbishie to everyone, but I really love the little angry wind man, and he has a really fantastic plot line in the manga and I couldn't help but root for him. He seems like a jackass at first, but he's one of those characters who really do have a good heart deep down and I love that about him.

And yep – by hand. Fun fact but your writer here actually grew up really poor and my house didn’t get a computer or even steady cable television (we watched a lot of VHS tapes and cheap DVD’s or stole satellite channels via connections who knew how to do so). So a whole lot of my early writing was done by hand, and it’s still how I drabble out a lot of my outlines and interconnecting thoughts about things. But I know what you mean about the brain going faster than my hands. I have an absolutely amazing typing speed, having broken the 100 wpm barrier during my transcription training, and even I sometimes have trouble keeping up with all the words flowing through my head. As for polyshipping…I have to admit that if it wasn’t for some self-esteem and abandonment issues I still need to work through, I do lean more on the polyamorous side myself, so it kind of feels more natural to me, though I do realize and completely understand why some people wouldn’t be cool with it or feel comfortable doing so. And while I share a lot of your feelings in that I don’t believe a lot of my faves would want to be with me (because again, self-esteem issues), I definitely do try positive reinforcements that way and I’m going to tell you the same thing and do the same for you, because I definitely do think your favourite characters would love you! Every single one of them, whether as a friend or as a romantic partner! I personally do ship you with Yata a little more than Bandou, but I could also see Bandou and you working out, though it would be a lot more of a slow burn and there’d be a couple more hiccups in the way!

I love deep diving and tend to get obsessed with characters frequently, though they shift all the time, and my brain constantly thinks all about them, what their pasts could be like, what they might be like in this or that situation, why they are the way they are, what little quirks they have…it’s really why, other than the joy of writing for my lovely constant readers, I write this imagines blog, because it’s a healthy way to allow myself those obsessions! And I do love Deidara, but I plain out loved all the Akatsuki…like, there wasn’t one of them where I was like…yeah, yeah, can you please just get out of the scene for a little bit, you’re boring me. They were all really fun and each one of them had interesting little quirks and behaviours that made them nice to watch or read for their scenes. And thank you for saying that! I’ve been relying on a lot of emails lately for the really difficult ones instead of phone calls because it really is a lot easier, so coward’s way out it is! As long as the work gets done, I’m cool with waiting a little longer for information! And virtual hug received, appreciated, and returned!

I honestly don’t know if either was yours because I don’t rightly remember if they had usernames attached or not. I know for sure one wasn’t because it wasn’t for a fandom we share but the other, I’m not sure about but either way, no need to be sorry. It’s on me for not being able to come up with good ideas! And it’s less subtlety and more that I feel we’ve talked enough to have gotten used to each other’s favourites and some of each other’s vocal ticks. And yep, even Bandou! I know you’ve kind of influenced some of my relationship Bandou takes, through reading your stories and kind of talking to you about him in general.

And yes, exactly! I’m so glad someone else understands that feeling. Like you love it so much, but it just doesn’t work like it should! And yeah…honestly, I probably write for way too many fandoms, I think, but I just have so many different things I really love! And yep – attack not needed but it’s something we share in common, so I really do enjoy that trait of yours because I feel like it helps me understand you better! I have specific pills I take if I find my mind getting too bad, because sometimes I have what feels like a million and one things going on in my head and my brain is telling my body that they all have to get done right this second, and my body gets stressed and kind of shuts down and has a panic attack. I call them my ‘reboot’ pills because I feel that’s literally what it’s doing. Rebooting my brain, haha! I honestly want GORA and GoHands to stop doing all the other projects they’ve been involved with and just go back to K because they need to tell all these stories and explore all these things because they have so much more to work with and tell but I also know that I’d really hope for them mostly to be manga, because I genuinely found the manga spin-offs had better art and pacing, or even light novels for the same reasoning. Until they do though, I guess I’m going to have to be stuck playing it all out in my head, haha!

And I’m actually really glad that my Eric story got the positive response it did because I was worried someone would call me out on it being cliché, though I kind of liked it…I’m always going to love anything that gives me a chance to write out and outright angst though, haha. And wow! Was it an extended episode because it was the season finale?? Either way, that’s not something a lot of series do so that is really cool, though I’m sorry because it sounds like it was definitely angsty! And now I kind of feel you gotta share that promo art, because I definitely want to see it!

Summary: On your brother's wedding, you dread traveling to see your family–whom you have successfully avoided for over a year after moving across the country for work. In an effort to save face, you hire an escort to get them off your back and perhaps even make your ex–who happens to be the best man–a little jealous.

A/N: Please don't hate me 😅 Just so you know, I had fully intended on doing a double-update but...it's been a struggle the last couple weeks for me so the fact that I managed to even write out over 7.3K words is beyond me! Plus, the universe just won't let me be great...*sigh* so here we are. Anyway, hope this holds you all off until the next one--which I promise will be much better! Thank you to all of you new readers!!! I'm super stoked about that as well!!!

Thank you, @internetjunkdrawer and @deepseavibez for helping me polish this more. I didn't do another read-through because I'm an impatient bitch...so I'll probably clean it up again after I post!

Either way, thank you all for the love you've shown Coquet!JK!!! I'll shut up now so you can get on with it. PS: Let's see if you can find the little OT7 easter eggs! 😬

Shifting on your feet, you ran a hand down your hip to smooth your dress. You settled on a classic little black dress that stopped about mid-thigh level. It was a halter with a plunge neckline and an even lower back. The dress showed a lot of leg, which you accentuated with strappy heels that laced around your ankles and went up below your knees. You had on a pair of extra-large, sparkly hoop earrings–which you were sure Mindi would get a kick out of.

The bigger the hoop, the bigger the hoe. 

You chuckled and admired your handiwork in the mirror. Not bad. You’d dolled yourself up after getting back from the hotel’s gym, taking the time to do your hair and makeup. Your matte, terracotta lipstick was smudge proof, along with your mascara, a wash of champagne eyeshadow, and cat-eyeliner. 

You finished your look with your caramel-hued bomber jacket for your early dinner with the girls–just to keep all the goods hidden until you were nice and tipsy tonight.

You opened the bathroom door to step out. Once your eyes locked with his, you couldn’t help but feel a bit unsteady on your feet.

He had called out to you while you were in the shower, letting you know that the guys just returned from playing a round of golf–which was Taehyung’s special request. He had just changed out of his country club-chic look and slipped into this…thing that you could only dub as his ‘devil suit’. A plain, black collared shirt–with the top two buttons undone, paired with graphite pants.

It was the perfect combination of casual, elegant deliciousness. The effect on you was pure, white-hot desire. And it wasn’t even dinner time yet!

He was in the middle of adjusting his collar when he paused to slowly rake his eyes over you from bottom to top.

“Wow, you look…” He stopped short of saying ‘good enough to eat,’ and cleared his throat instead. “You look amazing,” he said with a small smile. “Next time, warn me before you open the door.”

You smiled at his compliment. “I feel like I should be saying that to you instead.” You took a deep breath to relax, walking towards the full length mirror by the doorway to do another assessment of yourself. “Did you have fun at the links this morning?”

“Yeah, it was cool. I might take some lessons after this,” he says casually. “Tae had a blast, though.”

Taehyung wanted to play a few rounds of golf before jumping into a bar crawl and ending the evening at the strip club. You rolled your eyes subconsciously. If it were up to your brother, he’d skip the pub crawl entirely. Taehyung was the type who would prefer to hang around the beach after golfing.  Unfortunately, he’d left it up to his best man to do all of the planning for his last night as ‘a free man,’ as Haru would label it. 

You wondered if this was what Haru wanted for his own stag night. Hopping from one bar to another…or simply just spending several hours throwing bills at nearly-naked women dancing around onstage.

Your mouth fills with distaste and you brush the thought away before you start to go down that rabbit hole again. You glanced at your phone to check the time.

“Do you want to head down together? I know that you girls have an early dinner planned so maybe I could just see you off then hang around the lounge until it was time for us guys to head out.”

You turned around just in time to watch him slip his jacket on. He shrugged his shoulders to adjust it further and stretched his neck from side to side. It made your mouth water.

“Uh–yeah. That’s fine by me,” you smile nervously, trying to keep that coil in your stomach from twisting even further.

******

You stand side-by-side in the elevator and he reaches out to take your hand. You tried not to shiver when his skin brushed yours–but the corner of his mouth quirked up slightly, signaling that he had caught your reaction. As the cab descended, you tighten your grip around his fingers while you look straight ahead. You could have sworn that you saw his lips curve into a full-on grin from your peripheral vision.

The elevator doors dinging open does nothing to dampen the palpable energy in the air.

You and Jungkook step out of the elevators, hand-in-hand, and into the lobby together. Without letting go of his hand, you grinned as you spotted the girls already milling around downstairs. Mindi was doing a quick headcount while you waited for a couple more of Jennie’s girlfriends who were driving in as they were staying at another hotel.

Suddenly, you feel one of your shoes loosening. You look down to find that one of the laces has slipped down to your ankle.

“Ah, damn,” you say under your breath, finally releasing his hand, you sit on one of the couches at the lobby, setting your clutch down to re-adjust the strap. These shoes were cute and sexy but if you didn’t tie them up properly, they end up being a floppy pain in the ass.

As you bend downwards to reach for the loose strap, he approaches you and takes a knee by your feet. “Here, I’ll do it,” he says.

Without protest, you lean back and watch him rest your foot on his thigh, carefully undoing the knot and loops the strap around your leg more securely. Once he finishes, he gives your calf a gentle squeeze. “Nice and tight?”

“Y-yeah, thanks,” you say breathlessly.

He smiles and sets your foot down back down on the floor right in time for Mindi to call the girls to board the shuttle. As the ladies file out of the lobby and into the vehicle, you turn to thank him again and say goodbye.

“Have fun,” he says, giving you a light peck on the lips.

“Thanks. You, too. And be a good boy,” You threw in for good measure as you started to walk away from him.

“What are you talking about? I’m always good.” He smirked at you and gave you a wink.

******

“To Jennie!” Mindi yells out as all of the ladies raise their shot glasses in the air and down them one by one.

You sigh as the shot makes its way down your throat. The ladies start to dance and sing along to the song pumping through the speakers–they were antsy to leave and ready to party.

As soon as Mindi tells the driver to rev up the engine, Jungkook runs out of the lobby, banging on the shuttle door.

Jungkook slowly makes his way towards the back, where you were seated with Jennie and a couple other girls. Each woman eyed him with desire as he walked in between them. Some were practically pinching themselves to ensure that he was the real deal.

But he paid no attention to them. His gaze was hot–and it was only geared towards you.

“Hi,” he says when he finally reaches you. “I figured you might need this,” he says as he holds out your clutch.

You chuckle softly. “Oh, yeah. Silly me…thank you,” you say quietly as you take it from him.

He smiled. “Alright, well…I better get back with the guys—“

“Jungkook…why don’t you just ditch the boys and come with us instead?” One of Jennie's cousins remarked.

“Yeah, it’s going to be so much more fun than hanging out with those guys,” another friend pipes up.

One-by-one, they close in, ogling at him—all of them clearly very intrigued by your man.

He smiles at them politely, turning down each and every one of their requests.

“Would you look at that…a cock in the hen house,” Mindi chuckles.

You decided to step up and show them that he was not up for grabs. You walk towards him, the women parting for you like the sea, watching enviously as you reclaim him. You curled your fingers around his arm—as far as they could reach and walk with him to the door.

“Sorry, ladies. Maybe next time,” he shrugs at them.

The ladies pouted playfully as they waved goodbye to him.

As he hops off the bottom step of the shuttle he turns back around. You remained standing at the bottom step of the shuttle, slightly elevated so you were at eye-level with him.

“Thanks again,” you smiled before kissing him.

“Anytime,” he offered another wink before you walked back in. 

He lingered for a bit before turning on his heel slowly.

Suddenly, something compels you to turn around and go after him.

As he walks back towards the lobby, you run out of the shuttle. “Jungkook, wait!” You called out.

He spins around and sees you advancing towards him.

“Kiss me and put your hand on my back,” you demanded, whispering under your breath but loud enough so only he could hear. 

Or…at least that’s what you thought. 

“Huh?” He cocks his head and lifts his eyebrows in confusion, trying to work out what you just told him to do, but he had no time to process. Before he knew it, your lips crashed into his.

You wrapped your arms around his shoulders and deepened the kiss. You licked into his mouth, stroking your tongue along his eliciting a low growl from him.

His hand grazes the small of your back and moves lower until he reaches the swell of your ass. He gives it a definitive squeeze, making you jump slightly. He catches you and presses his body harder against yours, while you moan into his mouth.

Somewhere in the corner of your still-conscious brain, you hear the girls whooping and squealing from the doors and windows of the shuttle. 

The noise begrudgingly brings you back down to earth and so you slowly pull away from him, noses still touching. You were absolutely dizzy from him but more surprised that he was obviously breathless as well. As your hands slid down to his chest, you could feel the pounding of his heartbeat.

“I asked you to put your hand on my back,” you mumbled into his mouth.

“Sorry, I thought I heard, ‘put your hand on my ass’,” he whispers, lips curving into a sexy smile. “You’ve got to speak louder next time,” he says before planting another gentle kiss on you. It made you smile into his lips.

“Okay, okay! Break it up, you two! There will be plenty of time for that later,” Mindi hollers. “I promise we’ll bring her back hot and ready for you tonight, Jungkook!” She cackles.

You giggled, dipping your head on his chest for briefly. When you lift it, you see him smiling at you. “Like I said, have fun tonight. I’ll see you when you get back,” he flashed a warm smile before his expression turned dark.

“And you can be as bad as you want,” he says in a husky voice, grazing your chin with his thumb.

Your breath hitched at the comment, making your brain foggy. You nearly trip over your feet on your way back up to the shuttle.

******

“Come on–take it to the face, Tyeongie!” Haru growls as he tries to push another shot for Taehyung to drink, which he pushes back.

“Nahh, I’m done, bro,” he yells over the music. His eyes roll to the back of his head while he shifts in his seat at the VIP section.

Haru shrugs his shoulders and throws the shot back, hissing as the liquid makes its way down his throat. He leans back, afterwards, mimicking his best friend’s position as they watch one of the strippers undulate her hips against the pole.

After the song ends, Haru leans over to tuck a few bills between her hip and the string that held her G-string together.

“Thank you, baby,” she gave him a wink and made her way downstairs to mingle with the rest of the party.

After she’s gone, he turns back to his friend. “What’s up with you, man? I’ve never seen anybody so depressed to be surrounded by half-naked women!”

Taehyung laughed at that. “I already told you, Haru,” he slurred, “I would have been completely happy golfing all day. You were the one who insisted on the strippers.”

“Aww, come on, dude! It’s a fucking bachelor party! It’s your last night of freedom before…you know, you’re stuck with one pussy forever!”

Taehyung shook his head and laughed again. “I have no problem with that. I happen to like the idea of fucking one pussy for the rest of my life.”

Haru’s face went from a look of mischief and teasing to one of surprise with an underlying hint of gloom. He then shook his head, in an attempt to switch subjects. “You’re talking crazy, dude. I think that you are, in fact, drunk,” he laughs. “I don’t remember the last time you were this hammered!”

“I do,” Taehyung stares at him languidly. “I actually remember perfectly. It was about a year ago–you dragged me out to some random bar. It was, what, about a month after YN moved away. You just wanted to get fucked up.”

Taehyung sat up and sipped on a bottle of water. “You were going on and on about true love…and then you told me that I could have any woman that I wanted…and to never settle.”

Haru stayed quiet, that night in question was slowly coming back to him.

“But then you kept pushing me to get in bed with all of these girls and I remember saying–” Taehyung’s eyes transfixed at his friend. “I don’t want any other girl. There’s only one girl I want. And that’s when I decided to finally shoot my shot with Jennie,” he finishes with a boxy smile.

Haru hissed through his teeth. “Yeah…I remember now,” he says lowly.

Taehyung nods slowly. “And I’ve had zero regrets ever since,” he says as he swipes his hands to cut the air. “I love her sooooo much, Haru,” he says as his head tips backward.

Haru smiles tightly as he downs the last few drops of his beer.

******

Jungkook and Jimin are hanging out by the bar, chatting up a couple of ladies. One of them was practically begging to give Jungkook a private dance for free. 

“No, no–I have a girlfriend,” he says respectfully. “You should talk to my friend, Jimin, here. You guys can probably have a dance-off.” he jokes as the girls laugh.

“What are you laughing at? I might give better lap dances. And I only take 100-dollar bills as tips,” Jimin quips at her.

Before Jungkook can respond, the DJ makes an announcement over the microphone to acknowledge the group’s presence at the club. He turns down the music and invites everyone to give the groom a round of applause.

Taehyung smiles and takes it as an opportunity to make a drunken yet very heartfelt speech. He gets up from his seat and moves carefully towards the railing while the rest of the guys look on.

“What’s up, everyone!” Taehyung bellows, followed by a hiccup. “Sorry–I’m pretty fucking gone right now,” he laughed. Everyone cheers and laughs in response.

“Alright, alright, alright–listen,” he tried to begin as coherently as possible. “I just wanted to say–thank you all for partying with me. And–” he turns around, beckoning Haru to stand up next to him, which he does. Taehyung puts his arm around him and squeezes his shoulder.

“I also wanted to give a special shoutout to my best friend and my brother, Haru, here. And not to get fucking sentimental about it–I just wanted to say, thank you. Thank you so much for making me realize that Jennie was the one for me. I owe you my happiness, man. It was all your doing,” he says with a smile and hugging him tightly. “I love you, man. Not as much as I love Jennie but…I want you to know that I fucking love you!”

Jungkook looks on and watches Haru shift uncomfortably.

“Anyway, I’m having the time of my fucking life. You guys should, too!” he says as he raises his water bottle.

Everyone in the room cheers loudly as the DJ turns up the music again.

******

“Hmm…how ‘bout that one?” Jennie asked, watching the guy in question walk away. “Nice, broad shoulders–sexy smile..”

You rolled your eyes and polished off your gin and tonic. “Still doesn’t top Mr. Dimples from the last club,” you say wryly. “He had a sexy smile. Pretty eyes, too,” you added.

Jennie was really getting into ‘Rate That Dick.’ And it was fun until the novelty wore off for you a couple hours ago, around your second stop. 

Truthfully, there was only one dick that you wanted to rate–and up until this point, you’ve been doing your level best to talk yourself out of it. You hated to admit it but it was becoming a losing battle.

You were at the fourth stop on your club-hopping list and this place was popping. The line to get in wrapped around the block and played a mix of hip-hop and R&B beats, the music pounding through the dark space, giving it a seductive feel.

Jennie’s cousin, Liah, piped up, “Why don’t you flirt with him, YN?”

“No, no,” you declined. “I should not be trying to pick up guys in this state.” You were looking flushed and bright-eyed. Your skin was clamming up–alcohol sweats–if that ever was a real thing.

“What do you want out of commitment, Jennie?” Hana, one of Jennie’s other friends, asked while she nursed a drink.

“Uh…monogamy?” Jennie responds as if the answer should have been obvious to her friend.

Liah groaned at the ceiling. “Monogamy is overrated. I’m gonna go and check out Mr. Worldwide Shoulders over there,” she says, sliding off her bar stool and walking away to hit on her target.

“Ooh! I see somebody over there who looks like he wants to buy me a drink,” Hana says as she walks over to a man with a smile as bright as the sunshine. He had been exchanging flirty looks with her in the last ten minutes or so. She beckons him to join her on the dance floor.

“It’s not overrated,” Jennie pouted quietly when it was just you two at the table. “I happen to like monogamy," she mumbled as she toyed with her 'Bride-to-Be' sash.

You grinned at her. For as long as you’ve known her, Jennie has always been the ‘good girl’. She was in the honor roll at school, dressed modestly, didn’t drink much, went out occasionally but went home at a decent hour.

Mindi called it being ‘uptight’ but some women were just innately cautious and preferred quiet nights in rather than partying ‘til dawn. It was a shock as to how she and Jennie became the best of friends. But people always say, opposites attract. Jennie and Mindi were soulmates, like it or not.

“Jungkook seems to be the monogamous type,” Jennie says, after adjusting her kitschy tiara that had a bedazzled penis on it. She props her elbow up on the table, resting her chin on her hand while she eyed you. “It must be overwhelming for him to hang out with your whole family for days on end?”

“He’s taking everything in stride,” you waved off. “If anything, I felt weird seeing everyone again,” you sighed deeply. “Haru’s mom came up and gave me a hug this morning after the guys went off to the country club.”

“Wow...that…must have been something,” Jennie remarks.

“It was, if I’m being honest. And I’ve known them for years–holidays, family dinners,” you trail off as you pick at some random fried snack that was in front of you. You flag down a waitress and order another vodka tonic.

“Water under the bridge,” she swats the air with her hand haphazardly. “You’re with Jungkook now and things are different!”

You nodded in an exaggerated manner. “Oh! He’s definitely much different than Haru, I can tell you that much. In the short amount of time Jungkook and I have been together, I feel like–he’s opened my eyes to…so many things.” You stopped short of specifying which things…like, hiring him to pretend to be your boyfriend who is head-over-heels for you. 

Jennie groans. “Babe–who gives a fuck about Haru? He’s so last year,” she slurs. 

You shrugged. “I know, I know. But you know what, we were together for a long fucking time. To be honest, I still feel like he owes me a clear explanation as to why he dropped me just like that,” you say as you sip on your just-delivered vodka tonic refill before turning to her. “You know what I mean?”

Jennie suddenly goes ramrod straight and glances over at you. She sees you staring back at her. “You’re asking me?” She says incredulously.

“Well…you and Tae have known Haru the longest. Has he, I don’t know…has he said anything? Shown any inkling–”

“I–I don’t know why you’re asking me these things,” she says in a rush. “Are you insinuating that I know something?” She suddenly feels agitated.

“Woah, woah–calm down, girl,” you smile lazily. “We’re just having a conversation here. I mean–I’m clearly very shit-faced right now…hence the heightened introspection,” you say hoarsely. You noted that you needed to drink water from this point forward.

She relaxes her stance and clears her throat. “In my opinion, I think that you should just leave all of these things in the past.”

She then scoffs and lifts a shoulder. “No one really knows what Haru’s mindset was at the time. The point is, you’re happy and found someone who’s hotter and clearly obsessed with you. Just focus on that! All this–” she waves her hand around aimlessly, “This is all just background noise.” She keeps her gaze at you while you ponder on her words.

You nodded and realized that she had a point. “You know what? You’re right. He is hot!”

“Damn fucking right!” Jennie says. “And you need to show that hot man how much you appreciate how fucking hot he is!”

That lit a fire underneath you. You slam your palm on the table. “Fuck, yes! You are so fucking right!”

This was definitely the alcohol talking. You’ve gone through several glasses of cocktails and numerous shots— without legitimate solid food— in the last few hours. You were incredibly drunk…and unbelievably horny. It was the perfect storm.

“Hold up, hold up! I was just walking across the room and heard the word ‘fuck,’ thrown around like willy-nilly and I immediately want in!” Mindi suddenly joins your little party of two and puts her arms around both you and Jennie.

After you entered this club, she immediately made eye contact with one of the bartenders. She walked up to him, said some weird pickup line about felines and he immediately threw his head back in laughter, gummy smile and all. After a couple hours, it looked like his shift was coming to an end. They exchanged numbers right before Mindi saunters over to your table.

She eyes Jennie first. “Either of you want to get more fucked up…or—” She turns her head towards you, “Or maybe you just want to get fucked?” She giggled as the three of you exchanged looks.

“Well, apparently, it sounds like Jungkook is getting fucked good tonight,” Jennie says, eyes full of mischief.

You laughed and shook your head. “I didn’t even say that,” you corrected her.

“Sure you did! In so many words,” Jennie laughs.

Mindi’s jaw drops and her head whips around at you. “Unnie…I’m so depressed. Why did you have to find him first,” she whined playfully. “I feel like you need to send God a bottle of wine or something. Maybe one from Uncle Jae’s stash?”

You all giggled.

“Hey, you think Haru sent back that vintage Barolo from your engagement party?” Mindi muses. “I’ve always wondered about that.”

You considered that a rhetorical question so you bit the inside of your cheek to stop yourself from answering. In actuality, you finished that bottle on your own after he broke your engagement. It didn’t matter that it was a $400 vintage–the combined acidity and spice felt like a warm hug in the midst of your bitter breakup.

Jennie rolls her eyes and groans loudly. “Oh, my god! I am not fucked up enough for this conversation,” she yells out. “Let’s do more shots, Mindi!”

“Fuck yes! Bartender!!! Tequila!” They both run up to the bar hand-in-hand while Mindi screams out their order.

As the music swells, you reveled in the utter sensuality of the venue and the unabashed drive for casual sex that everyone seemed to exude tonight. You were hot and sweaty and just about ready to call it a night. 

Just then, your phone buzzes from your purse. You retrieve it and see a text from Jungkook. His message makes you smile. As you tuck your phone back in, you decide within yourself that you were done trying to talk yourself out of this. 

You yelled at your cousin. “Mindi!!!” Her head whips around back at you at the sound of her name.

“I need to swing by the ATM on the way back to the hotel!” You screeched.

Mindi gives you a befuddled look but she shrugs her shoulders and holds her thumbs up in agreement.

******

“You think we’ll be the last ones standing?” Jimin leaned back on his chair by the bar, which had a full view of the club. He looked around at Taehyung’s friends and cousins who were in various stages of inebriation.

Jimin was a tank. Jungkook watched him all night as he downed shot after shot…after all that, he was still upright and seeing straight. If he was put through a field sobriety test right this second, he would pass with flying colors.

“That’s what it’s looking like,” Jungkook chuckled as he scanned the room while he played around with his beer bottle.

Just then, another stripper walks by and tries to get his attention, offering him a private dance. He smiled and turned her down, just as he had done to at least 10 other women tonight.

“You know you can partake, if you want,” Jimin says casually. “You don’t have to be cautious around me just because YN is my cousin. You can have a little fun.”

Jungkook’s mouth twisted playfully. “I know that. She even gave me permission, actually.”

Jimin cocked an eyebrow at him. “She did,” Jungkook affirms. “And, I told her that she could have her fun, too if she wanted.”

“Wow. You two seem pretty secure with each other,” Jimin remarks as he takes another sip of his drink.

“We trust each other…at least, that’s what I’d like to think. Besides, even if she did tell me it was okay, I wouldn’t do it anyway.”

Jimin chuckled at that. “A little reverse-psychology for you?”

Jungkook shook his head. “No. I just prefer to live out my fantasy with her. Even better...she’s real.” His comments seemed to roll off the tongue but he meant every word. No matter how much he tried, he couldn’t get YN off his mind.

The way she looked at him, sighed at his touch…the way she kissed him back. Her lips held much more promise than others. He didn’t mean to put her up against past clients.

Once the contract was over, he filed those away and never looked back at them. He didn’t want to compare…because to him, she was incomparable. Not even close. 

“You know, I feel like I should be grossed out by your comments mainly because she’s my cousin but…I think it’s cool that you hold her in high regard like that.”

Jungkook nodded in agreement. “What can I say? She’s the one that I want,” he says plainly. Jimin smiled at that.

Just then, Jungkook looks up towards one corner of the club and sees Haru dip into one of the private rooms in the back with two dancers.

He furrows his brows then shakes his head subtly. He scans the room again and notices that Taehyung was nowhere in sight. “Hey, have you seen Tae?”

“Uhm–” Jimin does a quick scan of the room as well and is not able to get a visual of his friend “I thought he was with one of his cousins…or Haru…”

“Hey baby, you look like you could use a dance,” another stripper offers him.

“Actually, I’d like to buy my buddy, Jimin, a dance. Here–” Jungkook hands her a bill. “Go have fun, I’ll see if I can find Taehyungie.”

“Uh, uhm–okay then,” Jimin agrees reluctantly at first but doesn’t protest when the dancer ushers him to one of the open tables in the back.

Jungkook hops off his stool and strolls around the club in search of Taehyung. He wasn’t in the VIP perch nor any of the tables by the back walls. He didn’t want to try and peek through the back rooms so he thought he’d try the men’s room.

As he rounds the corner, he sees Taehyung staggering out of the door and rushes over to catch him.

“Heeeeyyy,” Taehyung slurs at him, eyes completely glossed over with alcohol.

“Hey–been worried about you. Are you alright?” Jungkook asks as he holds him steady against the wall.

“I’m–ugghhh” he groaned. “I don’t feel so good, dude,” he says, clutching his stomach.

“I think you might be done for the night.”

“I…think so…too,” Taehyung drawls, his eyes glossing over.

“Alright, I’ll take you back to the hotel. I’m sure we can take one of the shuttles and the driver can circle around to pick up the other guys.”

Jungkook heaves and puts Taehyung’s arms around his neck, supporting the rest of his weight with his other arm as they slowly made their way out of the club.

“W-where’s Haru?” Taehyung wonders.

“Uh, I think his fun is just starting…but he can handle himself. He’s a big boy,” Jungkook says flippantly.

As they continued to walk towards the exit, Jungkook waves at Jimin from the far corner of the club–who was now being catered to by a new dancer. Jimin does a quick salute in acknowledgement. When they cross the threshold, Taehyung breathes in the fresh air and promptly pukes his guts out at the closest bush by the walkway.

******

“What the fuck was Haru thinking…” Taehyung slurred as he and Jungkook staggered out of the elevator and walked crookedly towards his room. “Did he think that I was going to…sleep with any of those women? Days before my wedding day?” He glances down at the vomit stains on his shirt and scrunches his nose at the smell.

“You did just fine, Taehyungie.”

“I…I…don’t know, Jungkook. Is that weird?” He hiccupped. “Like—I get it’s tradition or whatever but…I just want…one woman. And that’s Jennie. I just want her. I don’t want any…strippers or…hookers.”

“Well, it’s been my experience that a man in love has no desire to be with a prostitute.” When they arrive at Taehyung’s door, Jungkook steadies him against the wall and attempts to dig through Taehyung’s pockets for his key card.

He directed Jungkook to his back pocket then smiled lazily. Jungkook taps the card against the door’s scanner and holds it open. “Bruuhhhh…” Taehyung dragged out. “How do you know so much…about so much?”

Jungkook straightens his back, pauses, then looks him in the eye. “I used to be a hooker,” he says matter-of-factly.

Taehyung’s brows knit furiously. He is silent for a few seconds, taking in Jungkook's remark. Then, he suddenly bursts into laughter and wags his finger at him.

“That’s a good one! You’re a funny guy. My sister needs more of that in her life. Someone to make her laugh.”

Jungkook nods, gives him a small smile. “Yep, that’s me. Now c’mon. Off to bed,” he says, and helps Taehyung get settled in his room.

******

When you whole party arrives back at the hotel, everyone splits off into their own rooms. A couple of people head out by the beach to get some fresh air.

You, on the other hand, saunter into the hotel lounge.

It’s practically empty save for a couple of Jennie’s cousins and the bartender. You walk up and order a glass of water. After hours of drinking on and off, you were rightfully thirsty. You lean against the bar for balance as you take a couple of cautionary sips.

You stared off into the distance and took a few more sips of your water–but no matter how much you drank, it still felt inadequate. It wouldn’t quench your thirst.

You checked your phone. It was after 1:30AM. The last text that you received was 20 minutes ago–from Jungkook. He let you know that he dropped a very intoxicated Taehyung off into his room and was calling it a night himself. He also threw in a cautionary, ‘Come back safely,’ at the end of his message.

Your head lolled back slightly–you were feeling good…about as good as you did after coming back from the bathhouse. The only difference was that your inhibitions were considerably lower tonight.

You smirked after rereading that text for the fifth time tonight. Or was it the sixth?

You know that you shouldn’t really make a big deal out of it. This was part of the whole ruse. You wanted him to act like this. He was supposed to show your family how committed he was to you…how much he wanted you.

Every action, every word, was purposeful to make it all believable. It was all for show and so far, everyone in your family seemed to fall for it.

But the conversations, the kisses…his touches…the ones happening behind closed doors or without anybody else watching–they felt real to you. You wanted so badly to test that theory–preferably without clothes on.

And if he turned you down, at least you had a $1000 backup plan in your purse.

You slid off the barstool, dug out a dollar bill to tip your server and began the longest journey back to your room.

******

Jungkook

Jungkook starts to finally drift off after taking a long, scalding shower. He had a couple of drinks in total. After that, he spends the rest of the night spitting his shots into an empty beer bottle— making it look like he was using the beer as a chaser.

By the end of the night, he was as sober as a judge. It took him a while to fall asleep at first. He was uncharacteristically worried about YN. They texted back and forth during the day but she didn’t respond after his last message about depositing Taehyung back to his room.

His notification said that she had read it. He eases up after talking himself into thinking that at least she wasn’t driving and that they had dedicated shuttles to take them back to the hotel.

It didn’t take long before he was startled awake by a loud thud, followed by some snorting and giggling. He sits up and turns the bedside lamp on to see YN clumsily pulling herself up from the floor then tripping over her feet again.

“Are you okay?” He got out of the bed and walked towards her. He picks her up by her elbows to help steady her.

She was barefoot, carrying her heels in one hand and her purse in the other. Her hair was mussed up, her makeup slightly ran…and she had a sheen of sweat coating her skin.

“Hi,” she smiled languidly as brings her up close to his face, supporting her weight.

“Hey,” he says softly. “Glad you’re back in one piece.”

“Are you really?” she asked.

His brows furrowed but his answer came naturally. “Yes, I am.”

“You smell nice,” she randomly remarks.

Jungkook chuckles softly. “Thanks, I took a shower. Are you drunk?”

She laughed. “Just a little,” she says with a harsh whisper. Her face softened as she stared up at him. “You look pretty.”

He regarded her intently. “You do, too,” he replied.

She giggled in response and waved her pointer finger at him. “I know for a fact that that is not true!”

“You should see what I see then,” he says, keeping his gaze on her.

She blinked up slowly at him and cocked her head. “Are you real?”

He laughed at the question. “What do you mean?”

Her mouth twisted ruefully. “Exactly what I said,” she says. “Are you real?”

He paused to think about it. He wasn’t sure what context she was asking the question in. He lets out a shallow breath and answers, “I am.”

Her expression changes into something that resembles curiosity and wonder. He couldn’t help but feel unnerved by her stare. It was as if she was trying her best to get a read on him–if he was telling the truth or if he was lying.

“Do you need me to help you get into bed?” He was still holding her up but noticed that she had pulled herself up straight, her face a couple inches away from his.

“Something like that,” she says quietly. “Can you…can you kiss me?” She bit her lip as she awaited his answer.

Now it was his turn to regard her in curiosity. He knows that he shouldn’t. He’s had clients who have tried to escalate things after consuming alcohol. Over the years, he’s figured out ways to turn them down politely. He was never one to take advantage of someone unable to fully consent much less somebody who was substantially impaired.

She could be confused and emotional, he thought. The stag group turned out to be quite the event before the night ended so Lord knows what happened during the ladies’ pub crawl. 

He swallowed hard, “I–”

“Please?” She looked so vulnerable like this. Unlike that day after returning from that awful brunch, she was soft and inviting. Truth be told, he wasn’t sure how he managed to hold himself back earlier this afternoon when she kissed him. Him squeezing her ass was an uncharacteristic slip from him.

She was undoubtedly different from his other clients. She was so real to him, unafraid to show her insecurities and her fears. He was skeptical about taking her call at first. But by sheer coincidence–or perhaps it was serendipitous–that he was feeling run-down from his real life when she called. She was only meant to be ‘a change of pace.’

She touched his cheek, pushing errant strands of hair away from his eyes. He felt a flutter within his chest. He was used to being irresistible to women–and this really should have been an easy decision for him. This time, he was the one having trouble resisting. His instincts were failing him. He nuzzled into her touch with a soft, wistful moan. 

It was true that she paid for a lie but everything else she’s shown him was honest. And after years of building his business on deception, could there be a chance for him to experience something genuine?

He lightly brushed the tip of his nose against hers.

“Jungkook…” He gasped at the sound of his name leaving her lips. It was like a melody that shot straight through his chest and tugged at his heartstrings.

Before he knew it, he sealed his mouth against hers. His chest pressed against her torso. She rubbed up against him, the friction sending his body temperature through the roof. 

He took her mouth in further in a rough, lust-fueled kiss. Lifting her off the floor, he moved towards the bed. Somewhere between the doorway and the bed, her purse and shoes drop to the floor.

Their lips don’t part the entire way, and it’s a challenge when he tries to lower her to the mattress. Dropping her down, he pulled his shirt up over his head and threw it aside. YN’s teeth sink into her bottom lip, her gaze hungry.

His hands were everywhere, his body straining upward as she was spread underneath him. She cupped his face, licking fast into his mouth, as if trying to satisfy a craving…a craving for him. She moaned against his lips. He hummed against hers in return. 

She pulls away suddenly and pushes up against his chest.

“Wait! I…w-what about…money…uh, you said, this is extra,” she stuttered. 

He sighed. That hadn’t even crossed his mind but he was growing impatient and so he said the first thing that he could think of. “I’ll bill you later. Sound good?” He says with a slight hint of teasing. After a small nod from her, he lowered his head again to nip at her bottom lip. And their mouths were connected once more.

“I like your dress.” He reaches to tug at the silky black fabric, smiling when he hears her breath hitch. “But it looks a little restrictive, don’t you think?”

“Take it off then,” she demands, eyes filled with wanton need. Her hunger for him only intensifies his hunger for her.

“What do you say?”

“Please, Jungkook,” Her plea is more than a plea. It’s a fucking turn-on for him, like no other. Her dress is gone in a matter of nanoseconds. She lays there in her lingerie as his hot gaze takes her in.

He kissed and licked at her mouth again, savoring her before moving down to her throat— planting more kisses there. Her head lolls back, sighing as he sucked on the skin there.

He moves lower, peppering more kisses down to her sternum and abdomen, stopping short right above her panties.

He pulls away quickly, turning around to retrieve the condoms that he kept in his bag.

When he returns, he sees that she was still exactly positioned how he left her. Splayed on the bed for him, head turned to the side, her eyes closed. 

He hovers over her and plants soft kisses on her jawline. “YN, are you with me?”

She didn’t respond or stir.

He straightened up more, trying not to panic. He runs his fingers through her hair. “YN? YN?” He lightly tapped her on her arm.

Just then, he hears her snoring softly. She had passed out on him.

He really should be mad at her for leaving him hanging but he lets out a soft chuckle instead. He watches her chest rise and fall for a bit, completely endeared.

With a sigh, he gets up off her, picking her up gingerly to reposition her on the bed. He pulls the sheets off from her side and sets her there, carefully ensuring that her head was on the pillow.

Realizing that she was still dressed in her underwear, he goes to grab one of his lounge shirts from his suitcase. He didn't want to go through her things and thought it would be easier to slip one of his oversized shirts on her instead.

She must have had a lot to drink as she didn't even give any hint of resistance.

He sets her back down on the bed and moves to the bathroom. He soaks a washcloth in warm water. He squeezes it out and returns to her bedside, gently wiping her makeup off.

Once he thinks that he’s taken all traces of it off her face, he puts the washcloth on the nightstand and pulls the covers over her to tuck her in.

After tossing the washcloth back into the bathroom sink, he goes to pick up his shirt off the floor along with a couple of things that she dropped at the doorway in the midst of their passionate kissing.

He puts her shoes off to the side and hangs her jacket on one of the lounge chairs in the room. As he walked around the room more, he found her purse under one of the chairs. He thinks that one of them must have kicked it there unknowingly.

He vaguely registered the loud thud that it made while he was too distracted by getting her into bed. It sounded like a brick when it hit the floor. 

As he picked it up, he knew why. The top flap had popped open and money was spilling out of it. There must have been $800 in here, at the very least. He also noted that most of the bills were in denominations of 20s…meaning, she purposely stopped to make several withdrawals on her way back.

Shifting his gaze away from the cash, he looks back at her. As she slept peacefully, his heart sank.

All of the fics will be rated Teen and up audiences or lower. Also if I don't put the author's tumblr is because they didn't put it in the fic or/and I couldn't find it.

Pairing: Adrien Agreste | Chat Noir/Marinette Dupain-Cheng | Ladybug

knowing you by emsylcatac (they are not really the author of the fic but that's the account that says in the fic, the actual author doesn't have an account).

After dropping their transformations months ago, Marinette and Adrien see each other for the first time after being apart. They've both left too much unsaid and have to work to pick up the pieces of their confused hearts.

Chapters: 1/1

Post-reveal but mostly ladynoir, light angst with happy ending.

the last day on earth by Reiaji

The first time Marinette sees Chat Blanc, she's fourteen years old. The second time, fifteen—the third time, seventeen.

The closer she grows to Adrien, the harder it is to save him.

Chapters: 1/1

Post-reveal lovesquare, kinda heavy angst, hopeful ending.

tell me something i don't know by carpisuns (@carpisuns here on tumblr)

Do you think it still means something? To love someone, even if the universe said you had to?

The odds of having a soulmate are about negative one billion (or something like that). But somehow, like they always have, Marinette and Chat Noir find themselves together. They’re ready to finally tell each other everything, but it turns out that even soulmates have to keep secrets, and while their bond draws them together, duty forces them apart.

Chapters: currently 17/28 (WIPs can be exhausting but this one is 100% worth the wait!)

Mostly marichat but almost all of the lovesquare sides make an appearance, soulmates au, mostly fluff but it can get angsty if it wants to.

One Thing After Another by SKayLanphear

Marinette notices that, sometimes, Adrien acts a little out of the ordinary--like the time he stood in a cardboard box for no reason, or when he actually hissed at Nino. It's only when she starts to notice the similarities between Adrien and a certain feline that she begins to get suspicious.

Basically, Adrien acts like a cat when he probably shouldn't.

Chapters: 15/15

Mostly adrienette with one sided reveal by Marinette's side, miraculous side effects (by both sides wich is really cool!), it's fluff with a lil tiny angst for drama.

This would take some getting used to by Codango (@codango here on tumblr!)

Adrien peeked out from behind the chimney even as the magic of his own Chat Noir mask fell away.

She was still visible, her dark hair bobbing under the street lamps a couple blocks away.

“Marinette.”

Adrien blew out a confused breath. His fiery Ladybug… was the quiet little mouse who sat behind him in class?

“What. The.”

This… would take some getting used to.

Chapters: 8/8

Adrienette with one sided reveal by Adrien's part, awkward flirting, just fluff, nothing to worry about.

comfort food also by Reiaji!

In Marinette's house, cooking is a language of love, and Marinette loves Adrien more than most.

Chapters: 1/1

Adrienette with a little of ladynoir, super super fluff, a lot of insight into Marinette's chinese heritage.

The right side of his face by walkingonthestars (@hamsternamedmarinette here on tumblr!)

Marinette and Adrien are able to remain in their new seats in the back of the room at the end of Chameleon.

Chapters: 1/1

Adrienette, fluff with light angst.

it's a long way forward so trust in me by aloneintherain (@captainkirkk here on tumblr!)

“You’re not the only strong one around here, Chat,” Marinette said. She looked a little winded, but she wasn’t struggling to hold him up.

This close up, he could see the freckles on the bridge of her nose. He could see how that smug smile lit up her eyes. He could feel the strain of her arms—and wow, okay, he really wasn’t the only person around here with muscles.

Six times Marinette carried Adrien (plus one time he carried her).

Chapters: 1/1

All the sides of the lovesquare! Fluff with LOTS of mutual pining.

a fight that you were born to lose also by aloneintherain

When the prosecution starts throwing around the word victim in reference to Adrien, he has to stuff his hands under his thighs to keep himself from bolting out of the courtroom.

Adrien had felt unsafe during those last few weeks, but, until he had woken up and seen Father silhouetted in his bedroom doorway, that had only been paranoia. Father was controlling and cold, but he wasn’t hateful. Adrien was isolated. He was often hungry. And some weeks ago, when he had snuck out to visit Nino, sitting thigh-to-thigh on his bed while Adrien cried in that silent, crumbling way of his, he hadn’t argued when Nino put a hand on his shoulder and said, tentatively, That’s abuse.

But Adrien remembers being small and Father touching his hair after he’d aced another test; Father holding his scribbled drawings like they were something precious, and framing them around his office; Father, dressed as Hawkmoth, his eyes wild behind the mask, lashing his sword against Adrien’s baton; Father, collapsed against Mum, crying into her ashy hair.

Adrien finds out Gabriel is Hawkmoth, and Gabriel gets to bring his long-waited plan into action.

Chapters: 1/1

This one doesn't really focus in the ship that much as is an Adrien character study and an exploration of his relationship with his father, but they're still there so I put them here. Really heavy angst (this is one of this fics that haunt me in the middle of the night) with a happy ending. ❗TW: parental abuse, eating disorders❗

Supercut by LNC

Marinette loves her friends and Adrien can't deal.

Chapters: 1/1

Post-reveal lovesquare, again light angst, an exploration of Adrien's insecurities, Marinette Dupain-Cheng deserves the world, happy ending.

Madame Snare by jettiebettie

“Sounds like a lot of work for nothing. She should take this as a sign to have a relaxing weekend with no responsibilities.”

“It's a lot of work she put her whole heart into. It wouldn't be right for it to go to waste,” Adrien whispers to him. The look on Marinette's face is enough to cause Adrien's own heart to ache. If anyone deserves the satisfaction and pride from a job well done, it's her.

“Too bad there isn't anyone else who can walk in those death traps,” Plagg says. Adrien hums in thought, tapping his chin.

“I could.”

Chapters: 1/1

Marichat, episode-based, Chat Noir in a dress!!!, light angst but it's mostly just idiots being idiots and a lot of fun.

in the same sun by peachcitt (@peachcitt here on tumblr!)

"It’s hard to believe that I saw you last at the peak of summer, when the sun was close and warm - and so were you. It should go without saying that I miss you. I miss you something terrible."

//

"It’s been seven months to the day since I’ve seen you. I wish you were here more than anything else."

Two letters, signed with initials instead of names, found in Paris, France.

Chapters: 1/1

Ladynoir, just angst, that's it, written like letters. No ending, just pain.

an uncurtain discovery by Missnoodles (@ladyofthenoodle here on tumblr!)

When he returns from school on Wednesday afternoon, Adrien discovers the darkness in his own home. He struggles to come to terms with it. To his utter mortification and delight, Ladybug is nearby to rescue him.

(He does not discover that his father is supervillain. That will happen on a different Wednesday.)

Chapters: 1/1

Ladrien, it says it's crack, and don't get me wrong, is super funny, but I also found it sad as fuck?

An Open Secret by Kasienda

Adrien whirled around toward Marinette. She smiled at him.

He couldn’t smile back. He stared at her like the dumb blond model that he was often accused of being.

Something shifted in her expression. And her warm open Marinette smile transformed into Ladybug’s grin. He was looking at Ladybug right now.

He knew Ladybug’s name!

Her name was Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

And he couldn’t say anything! Not to Marinette! Not even to Plagg, who had confided two weeks prior that Master Fu was growing increasingly paranoid since the location of his home and hideout had been compromised. Their master had apparently decided that Chat Noir and Ladybug would have to give up their miraculouses if they ever discovered each other’s identities.

It wasn’t fair!

...

A fic where they both know, but can't openly talk about it.

Chapters: 4/4

Post-reveal... but is it? Mostly adrienette and ladynoir, fluff with light angst and them being absolute idiots at hiding their secret identity.

golden (like daylight) by okayanna (@anna-scribbles here on tumblr!)

Friendship, Adrien decided, shaking off the mental image of Marinette’s hurricane eyes and hesitant mouth, parted in a small, careful “o.” He had a very strong friendship with Marinette. That was all.

or

Adrien thinks a lot about words, love, and Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

Chapters: 1 + epilogue

Adrienette but has lots of ladynoir, another Adrien character study because I hate myself, it tries to not be angst but the writing will punch you in the guts and make you cry, it's so good.

Strangers in the Bright Lights by poodles (@ladybeug here on tumblr!)

Adrien is about two drinks in when he sees a girl at the end of the bar wearing black cat ears. It's kind of weird, so he watches her, and although it's crowded he can see her face when she turns around. She’s wearing a Chat Noir mask. He takes a quick look around- nobody else is wearing a mask. Just her.

Adrien finishes his gin martini and heads over to her. He could use some company tonight anyways, he hasn’t told anyone he’s back in Paris and Nathalie won’t arrive in town for another month. And it’s been a rough day, okay? A rough move! He’s not sure he wants to be back yet, and he spent most of the day in the Agreste mansion sorting through some photographs of his father he found in the study. Maybe he wants a drink and some stranger to tell him he’s pretty! That’s not a crime, is it?

Chapters: 1/1

Adrienette but it's also ladrien??? I think??? It's super super angsty but they're both drunk the entirety of the fic so it's also really funny.

Pick-Up and Chase by also SKayLanphear

After she accidentally trips into Adrien and apologizes about "falling for him," Marinette learns that he's no match for cheesy pick-up lines--whether they were unintended or not. And while she finds it flattering that he turns into a flustered mess with only a few words, Marinette comes to regret making him uncomfortable. That is, until she learns he's Chat Noir. At which point the phrase "just deserts" becomes a permanent fixture in her everyday plans.

A story in which Adrien is flustered, Marinette is smooth as glass at dropping lines, and Chat Noir gets the romance he was always asking for--even if he doesn't quite know how to handle it.

Chapters: 10/10

Adrienette with one sided reveal by Marinette's side, it doesn't say it in the tags but I'm pretty sure the characters are much older than they actually are in the show, so much fluff and so much flirting.

Pairing: Alya Césaire/Nino Lahiffe

Nino Has Done Nothing To Deserve This by GuardianKarenTerrier (@guardiankarenterrier here in tumblr)

It's nothing, really- just an innocent comment, a joke. But when they hear it, Nino and Alya come to a realisation.

There were, in retrospect, dozens upon dozens of hints. Now that they're suddenly aware of all their friend's flimsy excuses and rushed explanations, they're not only sure how they've missed it, they're not sure how anyone else has either. They realise that it had to be magic protecting their friends- and that same magic has ceased to work on the two of them.

Well, this means they'll just have to start watching over their friends themselves.

Chapters: 7/7

This is more a found family fic than anything else, Alya and Nino are the mom friend, has light angst but it's mostly identity shenanigans in the most bizarre way. ❗TW: eating disorders❗

christmas lights by demistories

Nino checks up and down the street, checking to make sure there’s no raging akuma headed his way before he crosses quickly and ducks inside the small café. He closes the door quickly before the icy air can blow inside and tugs his beanie down over his ears. He spots Alya sitting alone in the corner.

Chapters: 1/1

Just fluff!! Really short but really sweet.

hold on, i still want you also by Missnoodles!

Written for the @thedjwifizine ! Wich I also recommend if you wanna binge a lot of djwifi fics while also looking at amazing art!!!

Five times Alya ran into her ex, and the one time he stopped being her ex.

Chapters: 1/1

Light angst with a happy ending! I don't really like the ex-lovers to lovers trope but this one is the only exception.

I will continue to expand the list in the future! But by now I hope I was helpful in the search of new fics!

Like That

Pairing: Rio x Black!Reader

Summary: You and Rio get to know each other better. Loosely based on ‘Like That’ by Doja Cat. 

Warnings: Smut.

Word Count: 3.5K

Installments: Say So | Like That | Talk Dirty

And baby, I want it, and I'll just be honest 'Cause I just can't front when I look at you

About six weeks have passed since Rio declared himself your man, and you quickly learned he took the title very seriously.

He was busier than usual with ‘flipping his game,’ and you were busy preparing to transition your shop, but you saw each other often despite time constraints. You agreed date nights at least once a week were a must, but when you couldn’t see each other, Rio made sure to end nights with a phone call. Virtually falling asleep next to him gave you butterflies, reminding you just how exciting new relationships could be. It took prodding, but he told you made-up bedtime stories and the boring details of his day. In return, you shared things about yourself— childhood memories, the crazy things your mom did to embarrass you. He was sweet and attentive, and you found it refreshing to be with someone who was just as infatuated with you.

On your second date, he took you to his favorite restaurant, a fancy sushi place with expensive rolls. He taught you to hold chopsticks the wrong way the way he did and even fed you across the small table, a couple of unfortunate rolls falling apart due to his prodding. You tried your best to hide your amusement at the pensive look on his face. For whatever reason, Rio thought of himself as a sushi connoisseur, but it was clear to you that he was still learning.

“You’re no better than me!” He admonished when he noticed the way you held your chopsticks. Like his technique, it was incorrect, but it worked for you— sort of. “I never said I was.” You couldn’t keep the amusement off your face any longer. “You’re the one who comes here weekly. I thought you were a professional, and we’re in the same boat.” He folded his arms on top of the table as he insisted you were wrong, but secretly he found your teasing endearing. Later that night, he called and gave you a cheesy line about loving to see you smile.

The following week, you had lunch at a mom-and-pop soul food restaurant that served the best cornbread and peach cobbler in the city. The owners, an adorable older couple, Donna and Gene, and servers alike stopped by your table to meet Rio. Donna gushed over Rio, showering him with compliments and extra cornbread. “Girl, he is cute!” She told you, failing miserably at whispering. He smirked as you rolled your eyes, but he handled the attention well, being friendly and personable even when Gene kept going on and on about changes to the menu, one chef to another.

A few days later, he called you up randomly and asked you to get ready and ride with him somewhere. “What should I wear?” You asked, hoping for a hint. You could hear him smile as he said, “It doesn’t even matter, ma. You always look good.” The occasion had turned out to be ‘Foodtruck Friday.’ Barbecue, kebab, taco, ice cream, and other miscellaneous food trucks were parked in a spacious lot in Downtown Detroit. You settled at a picnic table and shared several plates of food as you discussed the possibility of your own mobile ‘Mad Batter’ shop somewhere down the line. It got you thinking about the future.

“Where do you see yourself in five years?” You asked the dreaded question in between bites of a colorful Korean fusion taco. He stiffened as he considered the answer. “What is this, a job interview?” Sometimes you saw peeks of bossman Rio rather than the Christopher Castillo you were getting to know. It happened seemingly out of nowhere when you asked questions he felt were invasive.

You looked up from the panko-fried shrimp, red cabbage, shredded carrots, and tasty orange sauce wrapped up in a flour tortilla with a frown. You had two choices: respond in the way he had or make light of the situation. So, you said, “Kinda. You’re auditioning for a spot on my roster, so...”

He stopped chewing the half-eaten dumpling and swallowed hard. “That’s not funny.”

“You better start taking the interviewing part of the audition more seriously then.” You wiped your fingers on a napkin, and he gathered your hand in his own, wearing a look you couldn’t decipher. “You got it, ma.”

You played a game of mini-golf at the local arcade. Rio stood tall behind you, holding you by your hips as he corrected your stance. You purposefully arched your back, brushing against him just slightly. “Like this?” You looked over your shoulder with the most innocent look you could muster, but his eyes were glued to your ass. “Yeah, just like that.” He answered in a low tone without looking up. You giggled as you took your swing, adding a wiggle for his benefit. You pretended to care about the ball as it glided across the bright green tarp towards the hole. “How was that?” You chirped, looking down the lane.

“I can’t even lie. I don’t care about the game right now. I just wanna watch you.” Your aim was terrible, and the ball never went in the hole without several attempts, but he insisted you finish playing the course. You teased him about it for days after despite his claim that he actually enjoyed the game because it was one of Marcus’ favorites.

“Stop lying! You just wanted an excuse to openly watch my ass.”

“Why you always gotta call me out?”

You shopped a cozy health and wellness store with hundreds of cool little trinkets for sale. Neither of you had been there before, so you took your time exploring, stealing unexpected kisses from the other. Rio took full advantage of the size of the store, pulling you by the hand and holding you close to his side.

He frowned at the large collection of shiny crystals. “A rock, really? What does anybody need with a rock?”

“It’s not a rock!” You hissed, head whipping around as you hoped the owner didn’t hear him.

“What is it then? It looks like a rock to me.” He picked one up, turning it over in his hands.

“It’s a crystal!”

“What’s the difference?”

“It has healing properties...” Rio snorted but strung his arm across your shoulder and listened intently as you read the info cards to him. When it was all said and done, he bought an aventurine stone to apologize to the owner for prosperity, well-being, and good luck.

The next day, he disappeared with no warning. You had been worried sick until Mick let you know he was busy handling something. It would have only taken a minute to tell you that, so you were (understandably) pissed. He showed up at the shop several days later like nothing had ever happened. “What’s up, mama?” The greeting that usually melted you grated on your nerves. All of your feelings about the situation bubbled up to the surface. It was hard to find the right words— you were still getting to know each other, so how mad could you be? At the same time, how little did he think of you to not say anything? Finally, you settled on, “I can’t do the disappearing act.”

Rio wasn’t used to answering to anyone, not even his child’s mother, about his whereabouts, but he put his palms up in surrender when he saw the serious expression you wore.

“You’re right, mama. That’s my bad. It won’t happen again.”

And it hadn’t.

But knowing ahead of time only made it a tiny bit easier, especially when he didn’t have a set return date. You were going on day seven (the longest you had gone without seeing him since you started dating) when he called to say he made it home and wanted to see you. Your heavy heart swelled with relief. You missed him way more than you probably should have, so you insisted on a night in at your place, wanting him to feel relaxed and at home instead of on guard somewhere public.

It had been a long six weeks without sex while he romanced you with delicious food and beautiful words. It wasn’t an easy task, but you knew as soon as sex was thrown in the mix, you would be done for, either destined to be his or ruined by him. It was a scary thought, but distance had indeed made the heart grow fonder, and you cared about him enough to take a chance.

He was set to arrive within the hour, but you were still unsure of what to wear, frantically rummaging through the dresser for something cute and comfortable. You let out a frustrated groan when your phone started to ring, thinking Rio might have come early, but when you look down at your phone, you see your best friend’s name and face. You swipe quickly, accepting the FaceTime call. “Hey, girl!”

“Hey, stranger!” You pick up the phone, so you can look at her. “Really?”

“Yes, really.” She replies with just as much sass. “I haven’t talked to you in what— two weeks?”

“We talk—“

“—text.”

“Okay, fine. Text. We text every day. What are you talking about?”

“That’s not the same.” She insists even as you remind her of the ridiculous amount of time you spend trading memes and food pictures with her.

“Anyway, what are you doing?”

“I’m trying to decide what I’m going to wear between this, this, or this.” You move the camera around, showing her the different options. A black-and-white tank and short set with ‘Being cute is not a crime’ in a cute font. A fuzzy grey sweatsuit set with hearts, or a simple cream hoodie with matching shorts.

“Um, what’s the occasion?” You giggle at the look on her face, knowing she thinks none of the above are appropriate for wearing outside of the house.

“Movie night in.”

“You need help picking an outfit for movie night with yourself?” Her face scrunches up in confusion. “Wait, is it movie night with yourself?” You try to be casual about it, shrugging your shoulders in response. As usual, she sees through your bullshit and goes straight into an interrogation. “Oh, bitch. You been holding out on me!” She asks you five questions in a row without stopping to breathe before settling on one. “Who?”

You gnaw on your bottom lip. “...Rio.”

“Rio?” She frowns. “Like the guy we work for, Rio? With the eyebrows and the neck tattoo, Rio?”

“Yes, that Rio.”

“Wow.” You wince but decide it’s best to get it over with. “What? I know you, so I know there’s more where that came from.”

“I don’t know what to say! From what I can tell, he’s a decent dude, I guess, but you know what he does. You definitely know what we do for him! You don’t think that could be a problem?”

“It’s messy, for sure, and I can admit that, but I’ve been thinking about getting out anyway...” She nods. “Then, I guess there’s nothing else for me to say about that. You’re both grown, and you know what you’re doing.” She was your best friend, which meant she’d always give her honest opinion, but wouldn’t berate you about your choices. Just like that, you return to your regular discussion topics, everything from warehouse gossip (yes, even in the business of crime, there’s a rumor mill) to new music releases. Before you knew it, forty minutes had passed, and Rio was calling your phone. You promised to call her more often before hanging up.

You sing your ‘hello’ into the phone, hoping Rio can’t detect the shakiness in your voice as you clumsily pull on your bottoms.

“Hey, mama. You about ready? I know you’re sensitive about your space and all that.” He was referring to the fact that he had never been past the doorway of your home. Your home was your sacred place, so you were extra careful about who came in and what energy they brought. It was always nerve-wracking to let somebody into the space that you cherished so much.

“Yeah.” He picks up on the hesitancy in your voice. “Are you sure?” You nod your head as if he can see you before telling him yes with a giggle. “Alright, well, I’m outside. Can I come in?” You bite your lip, butterflies fluttering in your tummy. “Yeah, I’ll come unlock the door.” He whispers his thanks, and you take a moment to force yourself to relax. When you meet him at the door, you do so with an open mind and heart, taking in his appearance with a goofy grin on your face. As usual, he’s dressed in all black, wearing a well-fitted t-shirt and sweatpants. He’s casual but still so high quality and attractive.

“Hi.” You breathe out like a dork when you realize you’re staring. It helps that he seems just as mesmerized, stepping forward to envelop you in a tight, warm hug. He sways you from side to side before pulling back, his hands resting heavily on the top of your ass. He settles for a quick peck on the lips because he has something to say. “You’re as pretty as ever, darlin’.” He says earnestly, shaking his head as he steps back to look you over once more.

“Kiss me again.” His hands cup your ass as you devour each other in the open doorway. You forget your surroundings. “Damn, ma. Can I at least get inside before you jump my bones? I don’t mind giving your neighbors a show if that’s your thing, but…” You turn to hide your embarrassment, leaving him to close the door behind you as you gesture around the room as if you’re in an episode of MTV Cribs. “... here’s the living room. The kitchen’s through the arch. The bathroom’s over there...” He follows you with his red as you point.

“And the bedroom?”

You snort. “The tour stops here for now. Sit down.” Your tone leaves no room for argument. He settles into the soft couch while you grab the snack tray from the kitchen. Homemade popcorn, chocolate-covered pretzels, and dried fruit gummies are on the menu.

“All this for me?” His arms snake around your waist so that you can curl up into his side. “What we watching?” You grab the remote. “I saw a trailer this week that caught my attention. I’ll play it for you.” He didn’t care what you watched as long as he got to be close to you, so it didn’t take long for you to get the movie started. He stole glances at you when his knuckles brushed against your bare knees under the blanket. You’re embarrassed at how wet the small action makes you, so you stretch out across the couch and place your bare feet in his lap, silently planning your revenge. The movie may as well not be playing because you couldn’t be less interested in the plot as you lightly stroke him through his sweatpants with the balls of your feet.

“Ma...” He warns, watching you in the low lighting. He’s come to learn you like to tease, but he doesn’t think he can take it, not tonight. “Hmm?” You hum innocently, loving the strained look on your face. He doesn’t move even as you sit up on your haunches and kiss him. It’s slow and long in the best way. He pulls you to sit in his lap. His hands roam your body as you grind down onto him, relishing in the feeling of the soft skin on your tummy. He sighs into your mouth as one hand finds your bare breasts.

He pulls away to talk shit. “No bra? You just knew I was gonna put out, huh?” He pushes the cotton material up so he can see you properly. “Perfect.” He murmurs into your skin. You let him kiss and lick and suck on your nipples until the pressure you feel below is too much to handle. You’re a quivering mess when he finally helps you pull the cotton material up and over your head. It lands on top of the television behind you, but neither of you notice.

You nudge him until he removes his own shirt, and then he lifts his hips to help you when you begin tugging on his sweats. They puddle at his feet while you spread your legs wide, desperate to get your hands on him. “I could cry right now.” You admit honestly when you finally see him, biting your lip. He arches a brow. “Is that a good thing or a bad thing, darlin’?” His hips jerk when you take him into your hands, the cold temperature surprising him.

“It’s definitely a good thing.” You whisper excitedly, staring with wonder as he hardens in your hands. He barks out a laugh, stunned by your ability to make him laugh, even with his dick in your hands. “That’s really nice, ma. I feel real special.” Your eyes meet, and silent promises of all the filthy things you’re going to do to each other are exchanged. “You should. I’m about to change your life.” He throbs in your hands, loving that you find small ways to challenge him.

“Come on. Let’s go to bed.” He wraps his arms around you in preparation to get up, but you stop him with a shake of your head. “I don’t wanna.”

“No? What you wanna do then?”

You answer him by slipping to your knees. You spit on his dick, stroking him up and down slowly. He watches you closely as you lower your mouth, wrapping your lips around the tip. It takes a lot of restraint, but he lets you do your thing, slowly working him deeper into your throat. He closes his eyes as he concentrates on lasting, but he can’t turn his ears off, the obscene smacks painting a vivid picture for him. When you swipe your tongue across his balls, he moves to stop you, grabbing your shoulders. Fire dances in your eyes as you realize you got him where you want him. “I don’t wanna.” You repeat.

“You are a brat.”

You release him with a pop. “The biggest.” You admit, swallowing him once more. He groans, thinking he can’t believe you’re the same sweet girl who bakes in a frilly pink apron and begs him to tell her bedtime stories.

“I want you to fuck me now.” He stops you before you can bend over the couch. “Slow down. I want you on your back, darlin.”

You throw his earlier words back at him. “That’s nice. I feel really special.”

“You should.” He mocks you, instructing you to hold your legs wide. He wastes no time licking and sucking you as enthusiastically as you had done him. “You’re so pretty. I could eat this pretty pussy forever.” He compliments as you squirm in his hold. “You’d let me, huh?” You shake your head frantically. “No! You’d drive..me crazy!” Payback is a mother, especially when Rio’s the one dishing it out. “Wait, wait—“You whimper, clawing at his shoulders.

“What?” He cajoles. He almost wants to laugh at the distressed look on your face. “I want you.” You pout, trying to sweet-talk him.

“You have me.”

“Not like this. Inside.”

“Yeah? You sure?”

“Mhm.” You swallow, watching as he fumbles around with his pants searching for a condom. He opens the golden foil packet with expert fingers, positioning himself in between your spread legs. “You don’t have any pointers for me now?” He drags his tip up and down your slit, slowly pushing his way further. Teasing. You shake your head. “No. Just fuck me.”

“That ain’t polite. You gotta say please, mama.” You scowled, but he didn’t budge. “Please.” You pleaded with the sweetest tone you could muster, sighing as he gave in. You cursed at the stretch, him at the way you squeezed him. “You feel…” He couldn’t find the words, so he buried his face in your neck, trying to gain some composure. You caressed the back of his neck sweetly. “You feel good too, baby.”

His hips stuttered forward, and you gasped as he worked himself deeper. You grasp his shoulders tightly, your nails embedding themselves into the soft skin.

“Yes!” You squeal.

“Like that?” He grits out, struggling to keep his rhythm.

“Yes, just like that!” You cry, moaning as he pounds up into you. His lips find yours again, and it’s bliss. Then before you can stop yourself, you’re calling him Daddy like it’s his given name. He groans into your sweaty neck like he’s in pain.

“You’re so nasty.” Overwhelmed and breathless, you whine your protest, “You’re nasty. Look at what you’re doing to me.” His eyes shift to where you’re connected. You’re creaming all over him and leaking down onto the couch, but you can’t bring yourself to care about anything other than coming. You do just that, mewling as you make an even bigger mess between your legs. He whispers filthy things into your ear as he finishes, grunting at the way you seem to be sucking him in even deeper.

“That was—“

“—unreal.”

“Yeah.”

Neither of you can bring yourself to move. Your sweat-covered skin sticks together. You swipe your hand against your forehead while he pants.

“I wanted to ride you at least once tonight, but after that, I’ll be lucky to make it to bed.”
