I watched Alien : Covenant recently and there is a character that is an androide that can create and that kind of make him dangerous because he start not listening to others and do what he want. In Covenant, he kind of try to understand love by having a weird things with an other androide played by the same actor and he even kiss him. He even try kissing someone at one point being like " Is that how we do it?".
All of that for telling you that as a Chains reader (that is a story that I love reading) and knowing that you love robot that make me think of you. I was telling to myself while watching Covenant that you probably would love David because he is the kind of robot that make me think of Alpha in a sense.
If you haven't watched Prometheus and Covenant I recommand it for David. As a robot lover like you are I think he worth it :)
I 👏 love 👏 the 👏 Alien 👏 movies
I also love that you though of Chains and that you reread it I'm

for the ask game: LILAC CHARCOAL AND RASPBERRY
anon this is so sweet 😭
[ask game provided below for reference; if you'd like to play, please reblog from OP here:]
Tumblr media
#anon i love this but i have a covenant with God so i can't kill Him with you#this reminds me of the time my brother lamented his atheism and my agnosticism on behalf of our religious mother. but i'm not agnostic.#so i clarified i believe in God and that's never changed. i just choose not to worship Him + I think there are multiple truths (incl. gods)#which is shorthand but I've never been able to explain it to others to their satisfaction and it isn't anyone else's business anyway#he thought that was MUCH worse and became so dramatic. he was genuinely so thrown. he fixated on the fact it's heresy.#which I didn't expect because like yes it's heresy but heresy is a doctrinal concept -- it doesn't have any intrinsic meaning.#and not to be dismissive but doctrine is fairly sequestered from God. It's functionally and historically a voidable social contract.#i was involved with the church/attended various bible retreats for several years before leaving. but I didn't leave over God lmao.#my institutional involvement was always contingent on its alignment with my own individual purpose/practice/rituals/bible study/covenant.#which church/community leadership knew and tried to triage in various ways but like. it's not hard to reject authority baselessly derived.#so my present relationship with God isn't any more heretical than it was when I practiced Christianity as a religion.#If anything I was maybe more heretical in funnier and more flagrant ways when I was practicing than I am now.#but anyway. my point is.#i wont help you kill god but I'm always here for heresy.#alternatively i also recommend either (1) listening to god is dead (meet the kids) by british india#which when engaged with meaningfully amounts to the same philosophical state of being as killing God#or (2) forming a reverse orphic mystery cult relationship with Him the way I did when from ages 10-14#in other words#we can either sacrifice God to the secular age like thomas jefferson and nietzsche#or we can obsessively study the bible @ the cost of enough sleep that we (in brief spurts) access the parts of us inclined towards prophecy#those are the only two approaches to god that I'm capable of partaking in with any sincerity or intellectual honesty#and I'm unfortunately very married to sincerity and intellectual honesty.#(i'm sorry for meeting your very nice compliments with a nonsequitur illustrating why i should live as a hermit in a remote woodland shack)#(but I suppose I'm not sorry enough to remove the nonsequitur from my response prior to publication. so. take from that what you will.)

Lol so i asked for a rec list a little bit ago and Idk if i'm the only one who did seeing as you now making a BIG BIG LIST OMFG I CANNOT WAIT
take your time boo, love anything and everything you come out with so i'm sure a rec list will fall under that category too!
Thank you in advance!
i said this as a joke when i originally stated that this would be my magnum opus for the kanej fandom. but having "previewed" for a group of friends... this list is no lie one of the biggest things i've done for any fandom i have been a part of (make of that what you will lol).
i really want to thank you because i accidentally deleted the original ask. (so sorry.). but then i started to think well it can't just be a few fics, i guess i can go back to when i first started reading kanej fics... in 2021. and that's why it's so long lmfaooo
(i also have to reread some fics to get a better understanding of why it is im recommending it. this is a fun project, but my most of my personality is kanej right now.)
but the list is currently being worked on and i'll be so excited when i make it available. i really think it might take me roughly a month. so it's coming eventually.
(and then i was like should i published it when the show came out? no that's too far lol)

Do you like being related to your coven?
"Yes, I do. Like any family, the coven is not perfect. But we care about each other and we will defend each other without hesitation. There's also enough of us that if someone is annoying me, I can easily find someone else to occupy my time."

I originally wrote this back in 2019 in response to someone saying:
So, let me get this straight... the entire religion (of Judaism) is built around legal loopholes? Is that what I’m gathering here? (Feel free to correct me!)
And it remains relevant to people (gentiles) who characterize Judaism as rules lawyering or all about loopholes or worse, who imply we are trying to be "sneaky" or "pull one over on God."
My answer:
the religion is built around living in an ethical society per our contract (covenant) with G-d. but you can’t just have a bunch of words without putting them to use, & understanding them in practice, you know? the fulfillment of the covenant is a living discussion.
it’s not legal loopholes, because a loophole is often an inadequacy in the law that gets taken advantage of, but these are all built-in, part of our understanding. In this case, we have a contract (covenant), and we’re going to put it to use in every way possible, explore every inch of it, turn it inside out, and apply it to real life examples, define the parameters, argue those definitions, and then survey the conclusions.
I can say “you need to say the evening shema (a prayer) in the evening” but we can’t just say that, we need to explore a bunch of related things, like:
when in the evening does this happen? is there a difference between twilight and evening? if we say the evening prayer can be said from the time the priests partake of teruma, then when is that? if it’s the first watch of the evening, how many watches are there? if you were out all night for a wedding, but it’s not yet dawn, is it too late to recite the evening prayer? — IN SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS, KE$HA WILL WRITE TIK TOK, AND WE’LL NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF PARTYING UNTIL YOU SEE SUNLIGHT!
— when do they (the priests) ritually bathe in preparation for this [taking of teruma]? what about when poor people who cannot afford extra candles - do we consider how early they eat an evening meal in order to make sure they can afford the light [when we define evening]?
why did we discuss evening prayer before morning prayer? why does torah give us night before day? when is bedtime for most people? can we say the evening prayer until dawn? if yes, people might put off the prayer until dawn, which could lead to laziness or mistakes.
Also, when is dawn? but more prudently at the moment, when is evening? evening is when the stars are visible, but...how many stars? also, if you are lying alone in a dark house and can’t see the sky, how do you determine if it is too early or too late for your evening shema?
and that whole discussion is from the beginning of the Talmud, in its hyper-condensed form. That is what we do.
It’s not a series of loopholes and ways to weasel out of doing something. It's an intentional exploration of how something is done right, what doing it means, how we can accomplish it.
nothing gets taken for granted, everything is questioned, debated, discussed until it is understood enough to be applicable. and there may be lots of ways to understand.
if someone sees this line of thinking and goes “ah, loopholes to get out of it/wiggle away from it,” then you are mistaking lacework for loopholes.
....and if Kesha sees sunlight, it is now too late for her to say her bedtime shema. she should recite morning shema instead.
(note I think per anon my original phrasing was lacework, not loopholes, but maybe I edited for clarity later? Very possible, I'm a chronic editor.)

Demon Boyfriend: Larthan
CW: Dubcon
Tumblr media
NSFW
Female Reader x Male Demon
This was requested to me from a lovely anon! Tysm! ♡
Tumblr media
The rain hitting your window came down in a symphony of light taps against the glass. You had been watching the weather for a while now, your grimoire opened to a spell page as the book rested on your lap. You had a cup of tea in your free hand, idly sipping on the milk and honey flavored beverage as your head pressed against the cool glass of your window. The sun had been setting before the dark rain clouds swallowed up the rest of the light from the sky. You assumed it was around 7 or 8pm and given that it was a full moon that night it was a perfect time to try and brush up your knowledge of the summoning spell you were going to do later after the storm cleared up.
 You lived alone in your small cabin in the woods, finding the seclusion from the main town a welcome presence when it came to experimenting with your craft. Being a novice witch meant you needed all the time and patience to slowly hone your skills and update your grimoire. You placed your mug next to you, your hands brushing over the yellowed pages of the old book as you stared down at the scribbled instructions of your spell. It was written in your handwriting, however unlike most of the other works in your grimoire it was given to you by a senior witch. 
You had attended a coven meeting not too long ago, sitting in with other witches both beginners and experts alike. Usually during those meetings you would say the chants and resonate with the others but linger in the back during the small after party and mini snack breaks. Social situations weren’t your forte, yet you can hold small idle chatter every now and then if you felt confident enough to start one. You mostly kept to yourself and you were content with the simple life you had made for yourself. 
One of the senior witches had approached you as you stood off to the side sipping on your cider. The seance had gone well and most of the meeting was wrapping up with other witches idly chatting to one another. One of the senior witches had approached you, eager to share with you a spell she had learned would be perfect for the upcoming full moon. The senior witch had recommended you obtain a familiar to help amplify your powers more and you took the advice with great anticipation. You spent the rest of the party asking her questions for how to summon a familiar and scribbling down the notes into your grimoire. 
You thumbed through the pages containing the notes now, refreshing your memory of what needed to be done before attempting the summoning ritual. You had gathered the necessary items before. A dagger, the paint needed for the circle, some offerings and a few sticks of incense. You finally decided to get the ritual started now that the clouds had cleared up. The sooner the better.
You had created an open area in your living room, moving away tables and loveseats to have enough space to draw the summoning circle into the wooden floor. After lighting the incense sticks and a few candles, you took your ceremonial knife, slicing into the palm of your hand and offering the scarlet blood that flowed from your wound onto the circle. You peered over at your notebook, uttering the chant that the senior witch had given for you. You kept repeating the chant, eyes shut tight as you began to feel something within your chest get pulled out of you.
There was a gust of air that flowed around you, yet you kept the chant going and your face cast downwards as you tried to focus all your energy into the circle. Suddenly the air stopped, everything came to a still yet you could sense that you weren’t alone. A large humanoid hand touched underneath your chin, tilting your head upwards towards the being in front of you. You finally opened your eyes, a quiet gasp leaving your lips as you were face to face with a demon. You flinched away, falling backwards onto your floor as you scrambled to get away from the being. He towered over you a good three feet or so. He almost touched the top of the ceiling in your apartment. He had ash colored skin, black as night and his eyes that seemed like two sparks of amber in place of regular eyes. They glowed brightly in the dark of your living room. He wore nothing, and his skin looked as though it was covered in something slick and oily. A large tail swished behind him, horns atop his head with a flame burning between them. He had no nose, and his sharp pointed white teeth protruded from his mouth. He glanced around your home before his eyes peered down at you. 
“I am the demon Larthan. You have summoned me, human?” His deep voice inquired, approaching you as you tried to crawl away from him. He was quick to grip you by the ankle, towering over you as his ember like eyes stared you down. “Strange. It has been some time since someone of your kin has requested my services.” 
“Your services?” You finally found your voice, your eyes flicking for a moment to your discarded grimoire. “But, I didn’t summon a demon…” 
Larthan let out a loud, mocking laugh. “Please, if you didn’t want to summon me, you wouldn’t have drawn my sigil.” 
You blinked at his words, brows furrowing as you thought back on your interaction with the senior witch. Did she set you up? Summoning a demon was no easy feat and it was something that drained a lot of your strength. Were you truly capable of that? The proof was right in front of you, a strange glint in his eyes as he loomed over you. 
“You need to leave.” You finally found a bit of firmness in your voice, sitting up now as the confidence briefly came back to you. If you were capable of summoning a demon then surely you were even more capable of casting him out. You raised a hand to try and muster up some of your magic to be of use, only to have his larger hands clamp over yours. He grabbed both of your wrists, pinning you onto the floor. 
A long black tongue licked the side of your face, then your neck, lingering there for a moment as you tried to back away from him. He let out a groan, seemingly relishing the fear that flashed across your face as a low chuckle rumbled from his chest. 
“It has been some time since I ravaged a witch.” He used one hand to keep your wrists above your head, his other clawed hand moved to explore your body, his claws grazing over your breasts. Your nipples pebbled over the thin fabric of your nightgown as he teased them, a whimper leaving your lips while you struggled in his grip.
You squirmed, trying to wiggle your hands in an attempt to cast something, anything to get him off of you. “Let me go!” Your voice quivered, all of your attempts to escape his grasp becoming feeble. He hummed again, a low rumble in his chest as one of his hands finally latched onto your breast. He fondled it, causing you to press your thighs together and bite your lip, suppressing another sound from escaping them.
“You want to be rid of me that badly?” He mused, suddenly releasing you of his hold. The demon moved back to, resting his back against the wall as he sat with his legs spread open. “Very well, I can abide by your wish.” 
You sat up, rubbing at your sore wrists, still flustered from his obscene touches as you frowned at him. There was silence between the both of you for a minute as you waited. You glanced around the room, yet nothing was happening, Larthan still sat before you watching your every move with his glowing eyes. 
After another beat a look of confusion crossed your face. “Why aren’t you leaving?” 
“You must fulfill our contract.” He stated as a matter of factly. 
“Contract?” You tried racking your brain to see if anything you had chanted stated a contract of some sort. When nothing came to mind you shook your head. “I didn’t make any sort of deal with you.” 
Larthan let out an annoyed sound now, as though he had a right to be annoyed by the situation. You were the one that was tricked after all. “You made one as soon as you summoned me. I must fulfill my duties to you before I am sent back.” 
You squinted at him, highly skeptical of his supposed contract as you inched away from him. “What sort of duties exactly?”
He said nothing, instead a slit between his legs split to reveal what you assumed was his dick. It didn’t look like a human male’s anatomy, instead it was similar to a tentacle. It was thinner at the tip and had more girth towards the bottom. It was already erect, precum already leaking from it. You gasped a bit at the sight of it, before staring at him with wide eyes. 
“I can see your confusion.” He spoke, his hand reaching down to his cock as he stroked it a few times. More precum leaked from it and you could see the color of it was a very light purple. You stared at him in awe, earning a breathy chuckle from him. “A witch may find great use in my semen…it holds special purposes for their craft.”
“Can’t you just jerk yourself off and then leave?” You hesitantly asked, only for him to laugh at you again.
“You are rather clueless, it’s adorable.” He shook his head, his hand letting go of his penis. “No. I’m afraid it is up to you. You want me gone so badly? Then do it yourself, little witch. You did summon me after all.” 
You licked your lips that suddenly went dry, gaze locked on his cock. It twitched slightly, aching for some sort of stimulation. “I can go at it anyway I choose?”
Larthan nodded. “As long as it is you touching me, I have no preferences.” 
You stared at him for a moment before cautiously slipping off the strap of your nightgown. You stood up, letting it fall to the floor as Larthan’s gaze focused on your body. He seemed transfixed on your many folds and curves, drinking in how beautiful you looked before him. You felt embarrassed by the way he was looking at you, and you avoided his gaze which he chuckled at. He relaxed against the wall, beckoning you to come forth. You slowly walked towards him before sitting down on your knees. Your hand wrapped around the base of his cock, barely enclosing around it before you slowly began moving your hand.
A hiss came from Larthan as he leaned his head back. His tail thumping against the floor in need. You opted to just jerk him off and have him be on his way, though the heat pooling in your lower stomach had you feeling a bit more bold. You bent down to lick his cock from the base to his tip, leaving a chaste kiss on it as he groaned in pleasure. You stared up at him, his gaze finally meeting yours as you backed away from him. 
He was about to scold you that it wasn’t enough, only for you to press your breasts around his dick, squishing them together. You took his tip into your mouth, sucking his cock while your breasts stroked the lower half of his dick. Your head bobbed up and down, greedily slurping the precum that leaked from him as you gave him a tit job. 
Larthan let out growls and roars of pleasure, surely waking any of your surrounding neighbors. You would have to remember to apologize for whatever noise complaints you were about to get. His clawed hand found its way into your hair, gripping it tightly as you kept sucking him off. Your tongue rolled around his tip, his breathing quickened as jerked his hip upward a few times before pressing his cock into the back of your throat. Tears pooled in your eyes from the sudden intrusion yet you still swallowed. His cum tasted sweet as he came into your throat. You almost choked on how much cum his orgasm produced before he allowed you to pull away from him. You fell back, breathing heavily as he came down from his high. He leaned forwards, and cradled your face, wiping away any of the cum that still lingered on your lips with his thumb. Your tongue darted out to lick his cum, staring up at him with lust filled eyes. 
“You were a lovely experience, little witch.”  He hummed, brushing his thumb against your lips once more before he moved back to the summoning circle. You felt saddened by him needing to leave now, despite it being what you had wanted earlier. Your arousal was clearly soaking your panties and you found yourself wanting more of him.
“Wait…” You called out to him just as the circle began to light up again, the unknown winds from before filling the room. 
Larthan chuckled, amused by your sudden change. “You have your grimoire. You may summon me anytime you like.” With that he gave you a bow and the circle’s light filled the room. You sat there in your empty apartment, still turned on from the experience as you began to slowly clean up your apartment. The grimoire was still open to the summoning page, and you placed a bookmark onto it before closing the book, eager for the next full moon.

Do you have any fic recs that involve chasing? Like Derek gives in to the urge to run after stiles and catch him?
I kind of didn't really understand what you were asking lol so here are a few types of "chase" fics:
Mating Run Fics:
Wants & Needs by MadcapRomantic
Derek Hale has been participating in the Beacon Hills Mating Run for a decade, each year coming up without a mate. His mother, convinced this is his lucky year, persuades him to run one last time.
Enter Stiles, a young Omega with an unwanted Alpha nipping at his heels.
Family or not, Peter is determined to have Stiles. But convinced they are True Mates, there isn't anything Derek won't do to keep Stiles safe.
The Cursed Wolf by SinQueen69
2023 Suggestion Anon Wanted: Feral alpha Derek, who has been cursed and got in that feral state. The only way to lift the curse is the "sacrifice" of a pure heart. And Virgin Omega Stiles is willing to help him but the ritual has to be a mating run.
When Things Go Right by SylvieW
Stiles is nervous for the mating run. What if his soulmate is disappointed? Scott’s convinced that Allison will catch him, but Stiles isn’t so sure of his best friend’s girl, and the results could be upsetting for everyone.
Angel Choirs and Magic by LadyDrace
Derek has been very, very patient, and has shown frankly incredible self-control in the face of brutal teasing and flirting for two months. But now it's time for the mating run, and he's about to get his reward.
Except for how maybe it's actually Stiles getting a treat. Win/win.
Stiles gets kidnapped and Derek gives a chase:
Out of Focus by exclamation
Stiles was taken prisoner by a coven of witches. Now his only chance of getting home is if he learns how to control his own magic… and stops blowing stuff up by accident. With surging power inside him that he can't restrain, Stiles must deal with memories of the nogitsune, and fears that he might end up hurting those he cares about.
Meanwhile, his family and friends don't even know if he's alive. His father desperately searches for answers, and Derek will do anything in his power to find Stiles, even if it means asking an Argent for help.
of gods & monsters by Dexterous_Sinistrous
“I’m not the best at conversation. I’ve been told I have no finesse for it.”
Stiles took a step closer to Derek, pushing the billowing silk out of the way. “And what would you say if you looked at me now?”
Derek looked up, startled for a moment when he realized he was now looking at Stiles’ unveiled face. He was silent for a beat, taking in Stiles’ features for the first time, convinced he would never see such beauty unveiled for him alone.
Stiles runs away and Derek catches his ass:
between the click of the light and the start of the dream by thepsychicclam
A twig snaps, and then Stiles hears breathing and the rustle of leaves. He strains to get a better glimpse into the darkness, but it’s pointless. There’s nothing but a black void.
It's Stiles' senior year, and he's trying to concentrate on normal things - like the lacrosse championship, spring break, prom, graduation (and definitely not Derek) - when he starts having nightmares and waking up in the middle of nowhere. Oh yeah, and he's being haunted by a hag. Great.
My Wolf by Dexterous_Sinistrous
“If he wants to mate Stiles, why not let him?” Jackson asked, ready to part with Stiles if need be.
“Because if I did that, I’d be demoting Lydia,” Alpha Stilinski replied.
“We don’t even know how good of a Beta he is,” Lydia countered, bristling some that her status was being challenged.
“That’s because he’s not a Beta,” Alpha Stilinski stated. “He’s an Alpha.”
If you wanted fics with their own chasing scenes, I am sorry to inform you that I have a memory of a goldfish, and do not remember any in particular, though I am sure they exist somewhere in the wild. If someone knows some, please, feel free to add!
Other fic recs: pack mom!Stiles | angsty fics | historical AU | baby/mpreg | outsider POV | possessive Derek | smut | mafia

The following week had been filled with work, keeping up the appearance of an innocent gardener. It was easy enough, the herb beds were finished and now all you needed to do was keep them maintained and watered. It was a pleasant task, especially compared to the tasks ahead of you.
You had been avoiding Elijah, Agnes told you not to use him unless absolutely necessary, and so far, he had left you alone. He had been polite, friendly, but his presence had been a constant shadow. Stolen glances and flirty smiles, he was clearly interested.
You had tried to ignore him, but every time you saw him, you felt a rush of excitement and dread. He was the enemy, and yet, his presence made your heart flutter and your stomach churn. It was foolish, reckless, dangerous, and yet, there was no denying the pull.
It was early morning when you arrived at the compound, the air was cold and misty, the sun had just started to peek above the horizon. The courtyard was empty, and the whole compound was quiet, almost eerily so.
"Gardner! Just who I was looking for," Klaus' voice rang out, making you jump.
You spun around to find him leaning against the railing on the second floor, a grin on his face.
"Good morning, Mr. Mikaelson," you greeted, trying to keep the fear from your voice. "What can I do for you?"
He strolled down the stairs and approached you, a cocky smile on his lips.
"I was wondering if you would care to join me for breakfast?" He asked, stopping a few feet away from you.
You looked up at him, your stomach twisting with anxiety. You had hoped to avoid him as long as possible.
"Come now," he said, his voice smooth and seductive, "don't be shy."
You nodded, giving him a forced smile. He led you to the dining room, holding out a chair for you.
"Please," he said, gesturing to the seat. "Surely, you're hungry, and we have some things to discuss,"
You sat down, and he sat at the head of the table, looking pleased with himself. A number of servants came and went, bringing plates and glasses. One stopped and slit their wrist, pouring blood into a glass for Klaus, their expression empty.
You looked away, your stomach churning, you hated the sight of blood. The smell of the food made you nauseous, and the thought of eating was unbearable.
"So, my brother tells me you are a witch, I don't recall seeing that on your resume," he said, picking up his wine glass and swirling the blood inside.
"I didn't think it was necessary," you replied, trying to keep your voice even.
"Yes, well," he paused, taking a sip, "I'm sure you are aware of the current...situation,"
You nodded, avoiding his gaze, trying to quell your nausea. Klaus chuckled at your unease.
"Eggs?" He offered, holding up a plate.
"No, thank you," you said, forcing a smile.
He shrugged, setting the plate down and digging into the pile of food in front of him.
"The witches have been rather troublesome, plotting against my family," he said, taking a bite of sausage. "Do you know anything about that?"
"I'm afraid not," you lied, looking at him.
"Hmm," he mused, chewing slowly, his eyes narrowed.
"Why do you think I would be involved in any sort of plots?" You asked, taking a bite of toast. "Awfully presumptuous to lump all witches together, like we are some sort of monolithic entity."
"You are a witch, and I am a vampire, and our relationship is...contentious at best," he said, his blue eyes sparkling. "Besides, I have heard rumblings, whispers, of a new faction, a new coven-"
"Brother," Elijah's voice interrupted.
You looked over to see him enter the room, his expression stern. He gave Klaus a disapproving look before sitting down next to you at the table.
"Y/n," he said, smiling at you. "How are the herb beds coming along?"
"Very well, thank you," you replied, relieved by the interruption.
"Eggs?" Klaus offered, holding up the plate again.
"No, thank you," Elijah said, a hint of annoyance in his tone.
"You love eggs," Klaus teased, shoveling a forkful of egg into his mouth.
"Yes, but I am not in the mood," Elijah said, his voice sharp.
Klaus raised an eyebrow, and Elijah shook his head.
"Are you planning on interrogating her the entire meal?" Elijah said, looking over at his brother.
Klaus shrugged, shoveling another forkful of eggs into his mouth. "Whatever do you mean Elijah? This is simply a friendly breakfast,"
"It doesn't seem friendly," Elijah retorted, "and I think the poor girl is uncomfortable,"
"You worry too much, brother," Klaus said, grinning. "She's perfectly fine, aren't you?" He looked over at you.
"Yes, I'm fine," you said, trying to hide the unease in your voice.
"See?" Klaus said, giving Elijah a smug look. "There's nothing to worry about."
Elijah sighed and poured you a cup of coffee, pushing it towards you.
"Please, drink," he said, offering a sympathetic smile. "I'm sorry, my brother can be a bit...difficult,"
"Hey," Klaus interjected, his expression indignant. "I'm sitting right here."
Elijah ignored him and continued, "how are the herbs? Do you need any help with anything?"
"Everything is fine, thank you," you replied, taking a sip of the coffee. "I... Do have a question though,"
"Anything," Elijah said, looking at you, his hand resting on the table next to yours. You could feel the heat from his body, the tension between the two of you.
"Your choice of herbs, was that intentional?" You asked, looking up at him.
Klaus' eyebrows shot up, his gaze curious. "What do you mean?"
"The herbs in the greenhouse," you clarified, "you chose them for their magical properties, didn't you?"
"We did," Elijah admitted, his gaze thoughtful.
"What did you hope to accomplish with them?" You pressed, wanting more information.
Elijah was silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on the table, then he looked at Klaus, an unreadable expression on his face.
"Call it a precaution," Klaus said, leaning back in his chair, his arms folded across his chest.
"A precaution?" You asked, confused.
Neither of them answered, but you could feel the tension in the room. There was an unspoken conversation going on between the brothers, and you were missing something.
"You worry about the wrong things," Klaus finally said, his gaze locked on Elijah. "Just get the job done and you will be well compensated,"
Elijah gave his brother a hard look, and then turned his attention back to you, a polite smile on his face.
"I can walk you back to the greenhouse," he offered, standing up.
"And leave all this food for me to eat?" Klaus exclaimed, his tone teasing.
Elijah ignored him and took your arm, helping you stand up.
"It was lovely having breakfast with you," Elijah said softly as he walked you to the door. "Perhaps we can do it again sometime."
"Sure," you said, not sure how else to respond.
The greenhouse was quiet when you returned, the sun streaming through the windows. You could smell the herbs, their fragrance filling the air. Elijah stood beside you, his hands in his pockets.
"Can we talk?" he asked, his tone gentle.
"Of course," you replied, looking up at him.
He smiled, and reached out, taking your hand in his. Your heart was pounding, your stomach churning. You had to keep reminding yourself that he was a killer, not the handsome and charming man he was portraying himself to be.
"I was hoping we could continue where we left off the other night," he said, his eyes dark with desire.
You swallowed, trying to push down the feelings that were threatening to overtake you.
"Elijah," you began, but he cut you off, pressing his lips to yours. You melted into the kiss, his hand resting on the small of your back, pulling you in close.
"I've been thinking about you," he murmured against your lips, "about that kiss,."
He stepped forward, moving you backwards until you hit the workbench. His hands rested on your hips, lifting you up and setting you down on the counter.
You couldn't deny how hot he was, or how much you enjoyed him taking control. You didn't have to pretend, not right now. The constant whispering of the ancestors fell silent, the stress and pressure you were under was lifted, if only for a moment.
You smiled against his lips, running your hands up his chest.
"I can't get you out of my mind," he whispered, his hand running through your hair.
You laughed softly, "Have I cast a spell on you?"
"If you did, I wouldn't mind," he said, his eyes dancing with amusement.
His hands moved slowly up your thighs, searching for the buttons of your pants. You giggled as he struggled, his fingers fumbling. He pulled back and looked down, frowning in confusion.
"You have to start up here," you smiled, biting your lip, pointing to the buckles of your overalls. "You probably don't hook up with a lot of women wearing these."
He smiled, mildly flustered. "I've taken off much more complicated garments than this," he said, flipping the buckles and tugging your pants down.
It was a bit of an awkward struggle to get them off, the two of you giggling and fumbling around. Finally, he was able to tug them past your hips, pulling them off and tossing them to the side.
He leaned forward, pressing his lips to yours, his tongue exploring your mouth. You wrapped your legs around him, pulling him closer. He chuckled against your lips and slid his hands under your shirt, caressing your breasts. You moaned softly, arching your back, pressing into his touch.
His hands moved down your sides, sliding over your hips and thighs, pulling you closer. You could feel his arousal, hard and insistent, pressing against you.
"Am I moving too fast?" He asked, his eyes searching yours.
"Not at all," you whispered, kissing him.
He grinned, his thumb gently grazing over the swollen nub peeking through your panties ,a little wet patch had formed, the cotton clinging to you. You grabbed his shoulders, pulling him closer. He chuckled and kissed you, his fingers moving slowly, exploring, teasing.
"Oh, you're so sensitive," he said, his voice low and seductive. "And beautiful."
Your fingers curled into his shirt, your eyes locked with his. He smiled, watching you react, enjoying the effect he was having on you.
"You like that?" He asked, his voice a deep purr.
"Yes," you whispered, your cheeks flushed.
"Good," he said, his finger slipping into you, making you gasp.
He hummed, his fingers moving in and out of you in a firm, steady rhythm. You were so wet, the filthy sounds were audible in the quiet of the greenhouse. He pressed his lips to yours, his fingers continuing their pace, driving you crazy. Your hands slid down, unbuckling his belt and fumbling with his zipper.
"In a hurry?" He teased, his breath warm on your skin.
"A little," you moaned, your eyes squeezed shut.
He chuckled, pulling his fingers from you, causing you to whine in protest. He knelt down, his hands sliding up your thighs, gripping the edge of your panties.
"Let me," he said, tugging the wet garment down and off.
You bit your lip, watching him, your heart pounding. He grinned, his hands pushing your knees apart. His tongue ran along the inside of your thigh, making you shudder. He paused, his gaze moving up, meeting yours.
"Is this alright?" He asked, his fingers tracing circles on the smooth skin.
"Yes," you whispered, your eyes fixed on him.
He smirked and then buried his face between your thighs, his tongue lapping at your swollen, slick cunt. You let out a moan, your hand grabbing onto his hair, pulling him closer.
He was good, infuriatingly so, his tongue licking and swirling, driving you wild. You could feel your climax building, the tension rising, his hands gripping your thighs, his tongue working its magic.
You were close, so close, your toes curling, your body trembling. You couldn't believe how good it felt, how amazing his mouth felt against your skin.
The silence in your mind was intoxicating, the freedom addictive. The only things that mattered were the waves of pleasure coursing through your body and the feeling of his fingers digging into your hips.
The pressure built, and you writhed, bucking your hips, grinding against his mouth. Reaching, reaching, reaching for the edge, desperate for release.
And then, you fell.
The world exploded in a blinding light, stars dancing behind your eyes. Your body shook, a tingling sensation spreading from your core, to the tips of your toes. The voices came rushing back, and with them visions of the past, of a life lived, of a future yet to be written.
You could see plants wilting, rotting in their pots, a tree splitting, its roots exposed, a forest fire, a raging inferno, consuming everything in its path. Ashes like rain, falling, blanketing the earth. You could hear screams of children, of a mother crying, a woman wailing. You saw blood, so much blood, the air thick with its coppery scent.
You screamed, your eyes wide, your body shaking, the images flooding your mind. It was too much, it was all too much. You couldn't breathe, the weight of it crushing you, suffocating you.
You felt two warm hands on your shoulders, shaking you, a soft, muffled voice calling to you.
"Are you okay? Come back to me, come back,"
Slowly, the images faded, the voices silenced, the pressure eased. Your heart was pounding, sweat covering your skin. You looked up, Elijah's worried expression coming into focus.
"Y/n?" He said, his voice laced with concern.
"I'm... I'm okay," you managed, your voice hoarse.
His hand cupped your cheek, his thumb stroking your skin.
"What happened? You went away for a moment," He asked, his eyes scanning yours, searching for an answer.
"Y-you are just really good at that," you said, giving him a small smile, your voice shaking.
He wasn't convinced, his expression concerned. He was about to say something when Klaus' voice echoed through the greenhouse.
"Brother! Are you still here?"
You and Elijah looked at each other, his hands quickly fixing his pants, before he moved away.You forced a smile, the visions still lingering, the voices of your ancestors had returned, the blissful silence gone. He helped you stand, his hands lingering on your waist, his eyes full of questions. You tried to give him a reassuring smile, but he could see through it.
"Do you need anything? Water, or..." He trailed off, searching for an excuse to stay, to make sure you were okay. "Did I upset you? I... I didn't mean to push."
You shook your head, trying to put him at ease. "No, it's not you, it's... I'm sorry, I can't,"
You were embarrassed, confused. You needed space, time to sort through the images and figure out what they meant.
"You're sure?" He asked, his voice gentle.
"Yeah, I'm fine, really," you said, trying to sound convincing. "Thank you, but I... I have work to do, I should go,"
"Okay," he said, reluctantly letting go of your waist.
You hurried to find your clothes, putting them on, ignoring the way the fabric stuck to your damp skin. He watched you, his expression thoughtful, his arms folded across his chest.
"Have dinner with me tomorrow?" He asked, his eyes hopeful.
You hesitated. "I'm not sure that's such a good-"
"Please," he said, his voice soft. "Let me take you out. We can have a nice, normal date."
You smiled, your heart fluttering. "Okay,"
He grinned, his eyes sparkling. "Great, I'll pick you up,"
You nodded, mustering your best smile. You couldn't shake the unease, the fear, the dread that was starting to creep in. There was a storm coming, you could feel it, and you weren't sure what to do.
Tumblr media
Agnes lit the last candle, the soft glow filling the room. She closed her eyes and whispered an incantation, the air thick with the scent of herbs.
Maeve wandered in and sat down beside you, watching Agnes.
"Is she trying to commune with the ancestors again?" Maeve asked, her voice laced with irritation.
"She is," you replied, keeping your tone neutral.
"It won't work," Maeve said, her voice harsh.
"I had a vision," you whispered, not wanting to distract Agnes.
"Of course you did," Maeve scoffed, her gaze fixed on Agnes. "They're always visions. Never anything helpful."
"Maeve," you warned, not wanting to argue.
You heard the sound of the latch being pulled and the other coven members entered, filling the room. Agnes signaled for the members to gather around the altar.
"Welcome," she said, her voice low and calm. "I have called this meeting to discuss an urgent matter,"
The coven murmured, exchanging glances, a sense of unease filling the room. Agnes looked over at you, gesturing for you to speak.
"We have a problem," you began, your voice shaking.
"What's going on?" A member named Ava asked, her voice concerned.
"I think I know what they want with the herbs," you said, your eyes scanning the group.
"Spit it out, girl," Maeve said, her tone sharp.
"We know they have been escalating this war, first with suppression, then an outright ban on magic. They have executed some of our families, and now they are planning to use the last thing we have against us," you said, taking a breath, steeling yourself.
"Which is?" Another member named Liza asked, her gaze focused on you.
"They're taking complete control of the vervain supply," you replied, "They're growing it, cultivating it, with the aim of controlling it,"
"That would explain why they were in need of a gardener," Beatrice said, her brow furrowed in thought.
"But why would they need complete control?" Liza asked, her voice full of concern.
"To take the last thread of control away from us," Agnes replied, her eyes full of worry. "They will keep it out of our water supply, and be able to compel any person they please,"
"And they will kill any competitors," you said softly, remembering the vision.
"Including you, with your little shop" Maeve said, her lips curled in a cruel smile. "So, you might want to focus on getting us the ash before they cut your pretty head off,"
"Any progress with getting the ash?" Beatrice asked, placing her hand on your shoulder, her gaze sympathetic.
"Not yet," you replied, shaking your head. "It's a delicate process."
Agnes nodded, looking around at the seven young women. "We must prepare, we need to find another way to protect ourselves. Our coven, our legacy is all that matters,"
The witches nodded, their expressions somber.
"Our ancestors are looking out for us, guiding us. We will survive, we will persevere," Agnes said, her voice resolute. "Y/n has seen it,"
"Oh yes, the vision," Maeve said, her eyes filled with sarcasm. "What have you seen?"
"I... I saw death and destruction," you said, your voice shaking.
"You can't be serious," Maeve scoffed, rolling her eyes. "You have had those visions hundreds of times,"
"Maeve," Agnes warned.
"No, this is ridiculous," Maeve shot back, her eyes narrowed. "We need the ash, and y/n isn't getting it. So, we need to find someone else who can."
"I'm doing my best," you said, trying to remain calm. "I have earned Elijah's trust, he will-"
"When and how did you have this vision?" Maeve demanded, cutting you off.
"This morning," you admitted, knowing there was no point in hiding it.
"Please dear, tell us how, perhaps it can add clarity to what is to come," Agnes said, her voice soothing.
You felt yourself blushing, your cheeks growing hot. "I... I was with Elijah, in the greenhouse," you began, avoiding their eyes.
"Your visions are usually caused by stress," Beatrice chimed in, her brow furrowed. "Was he threatening you in some way? Was it an argument?"
"No, no, nothing like that," you assured them, a blush creeping onto your cheeks. "It was... I... It was after,"
"After what?" Liza asked, her interest piqued.
You cleared your throat, shifting uncomfortably. Everyone here knew you were trying to seduce him, that his blindspot was always with his lovers. But admitting that he had touched you, that you had let him, that was different.
"It was after he was intimate with her," Agnes said, her voice soft and understanding.
You could feel the judgment, the disapproval, the tension in the room. Beatrice took your hand and gave it a squeeze, trying to offer you comfort.
"How many times has that happened?" Maeve asked, her tone accusatory.
"Maeve," Beatrice warned, "she's making a great sacrifice for us,"
"Whoring herself out to an abomination," Maeve scoffed, shaking her head.
"That's enough," Agnes said, her tone sharp, cutting the argument short.
"It's fine, I understand her concerns," you said, trying to keep the bitterness from your voice. "I've been with him every day, I'm gaining his trust, it's only a matter of time before I find the ash."
The other members nodded, their faces grim.
"Y/n's way is the safest, they cannot know when we take it, or they will stop us with violence," Agnes said, her expression solemn.
"How long will it take?" Maeve asked, her frustration evident.
"I can't be sure," you admitted, shaking your head.
Maeve let out a frustrated groan and stood up, storming out of the room.
"I'm sorry," you said, looking around at the others.
"Don't apologize, it's a difficult task," Liza said, offering you a reassuring smile. "I could never have the will or strength to lay with a demon, much less one of the old ones."
You swallowed, forcing a smile, trying not to let the comment hurt. It wasn't exactly a burden to be with him, you couldn't deny that it had felt good. That there had been moments where the lines between what was an act and what was real blurred.
"He is a very handsome man," Beatrice added, trying to lighten the mood.
"That he is," Ava agreed, her eyes twinkling. "It's a shame he's so evil."
"Yes," you said, forcing a smile.
"I think that's all for tonight," Agnes said, giving you a kind smile. "As always, prepare, purify, for tomorrow could be the day we possess the ash."
You watched as the coven departed, their expressions somber, their shoulders hunched, each carrying the burden of your coven. You felt a wave of guilt wash over you, wondering if there was something more you could have done. If you should have tried harder, found a quicker solution.
"Are you okay, child?" Agnes asked, placing a hand on your shoulder.
"I'm fine," you assured her, mustering a small smile. "I'll get the ash, I promise,"
Agnes smiled, giving your shoulder a gentle squeeze..
"Do whatever it takes, sweet girl, and stay safe, we need you for the ritual," Agnes said, patting your shoulder before leaving the room.
You looked over at the altar, the candles casting flickering shadows across the walls, the vines, and leaves twisting and twining around each other. It was beautiful, and it filled you with a sense of peace.
You had made a commitment, a promise to your coven, and you were going to do everything you could to keep it. 
Tumblr media
It was an odd feeling, to walk around town on the arm of a man that everyone hated and feared. People's heads turned as you passed, and whispers filled the air. You wanted to tell them that you were on their side, that you would fight for them, for their freedom. But you knew it would only cause more trouble.
Days had turned to weeks, turned to months. Each one the same, each night spent in his arms. And yet, every time he held you, kissed you, whispered words of love, it felt like the first time.
You felt like two people.
There was the you that he knew. The one who smiled, and laughed with him. The one who melted into his strong arms. Who listened to his stories, his plans, his dreams. The one who woke up beside him, hair tousled and with eyes full of sleep. The one who loved him, even if you weren't supposed to.
And then, there was the other you. The one who had a duty. The one who had a purpose, a mission, a destiny to wipe out his family. The one who had to lie, deceive, betray him.
Neither of them felt like you. Neither of them felt right. Both felt like an act. Like a betrayal.
The worst part was the way he looked at you. Like you were the only thing that mattered, the only thing he cared about. You were raised to hate him, to expect cruelty, violence, abuse. And yet, here he was, always so gentle, kind and affectionate. It made it hard to believe the things your coven had told you.
He was charming, witty, and intelligent. He made you laugh, he made you feel safe, and cherished. He was nothing like the monster you had expected, nothing like the one the others spoke of. If he wasn't an abomination, you could see yourself falling in love with him.
You couldn't.
You shouldn't.
But you did.
And it would only make what you were about to do, that much harder.

Cosmere Characters React to Finding Fanfic/Fanart of Themselves: A Collab with Cosmereplay
As requested by anon :)
I asked @cosmereplay to collab with me on this anon's request, and happily, she agreed! Basically, I've written the fanart parts of this, and Cosmereplay has taken care of the fanfic parts since I, ah, don't read fanfic and wouldn't know the really good jokes.
1. Shallan, Adolin, & Kaladin Read Fanfic
Shallan (reading tags): Hmmm...ace Kaladin, aromantic Kaladin, bisexual Kaladin, bottom Kaladin (I'll have to look into that one later...), demisexual Kaladin, demiromantic Kaladin, dom Kaladin... Adolin: What are the relationship tags like? Shallan: Let's see... blushes thoroughly OH LOOK KALADIN/SLEEP! THAT'S SO SWEET! Oooh...Kaladin/Happiness! Kaladin: Everybody's a critic. Adolin: They just want you to be happy, Kal! Kaladin: I-I'm fine most of the time!
2. Elend & Vin Look at Fanart
Elend: Wow! Stunning! Magnificent! Vin (peering over his shoulder): Uh, Elend, I think you're supposed to be looking at art of yourself. Those are all pictures of me. Elend: Can you blame me?? I mean look at you here! Vin: I suppose I look...somewhat cool there. Elend: Ascendent, I'd say!
3. Ellista and Pai Read "Covenant" by liesmyth
Ardent Ellista: Oh you HAVE to read this one, it's the most popular Cosmere fic by kudos! Kaladin Stormblessed and Highprince Adolin are soulmates, it's so sad yet hopeful! Ardent Pai: I bet it doesn't even mention their class differences. Ardent Ellista: No it totally does! And it really gets in the way of them kissing!! Ardent Pai: Well maybe I'll take a look then.
4. The Kholin Family Look at Fanart: Part 1 (Dalinar & Navani)
Jasnah (slamming a large tome onto the table): All right, everyone. I've finished my extensive research into the fanart of our family. Jasnah: Dalinar, according to my findings, people on the internet find you (a) extremely sexy and (b) wish you to be shirtless on the beach. Jasnah: There is also extensive interest in you being strong but vulnerable in the face of Odium, which I believe goes back to point (a), your assumed sexiness. Dalinar: ... Dalinar: I see. Jasnah: Navani, the residents of the internet desperately wish to see you explore women as romantic/sexual options. Navani: ...In general, or specific women? Jasnah: Mostly Ialai and Raboniel, from what I have seen. You can see here, and here. Navani: Sure, makes sense. Dalinar: (Does it??)
5. Sigzil & Lopen Read Fanfic
Sigzil: Bridge Fourgy? Ohhh... oh no... Lopen: Well now you GOTTA read it, gancho! Sigzil: I will burn it is what I will do.
6. Hoid & Design Look at Fanart
Hoid: (huffing and harumphing) Design: Well, I think the art is nice! Hoid: (harumphing and huffing) Design: The colors are spot-on, there's some symmetry... Hoid: (muttering) I've been involved in practically every Cosmere-significant event...I tell stories with colors and magic imagery...I beat up Kelsier that one time... Hoid: But nooooo they only want to draw me in the Mare shirt with mismatching socks and sandals!!! AND TINY RED SHORTS Design: Wow, look at my boobs in this one! They're so round and shiny! Hoid: ...I feel like you are not sympathizing with me here.
7. Rushu & Jasnah read "The Princess and the Captain" by ailvara
Rushu: Your Majesty I looked into the most popular fanfic by hits and discovered it's an ongoing slowburn romance between you and, uh... well... Jasnah: Out with it, Rushu. Rushu: You and Kaladin Stormblessed. Jasnah: Me? And Kaladin?? But he's half my age! And we've done nothing but argue! Rushu (blushing): I think that's part of the appeal, Your Majesty. Jasnah: Give me that. (reading) Well if he said THAT then maybe I wouldn't have... hm... Rushu, cancel my appointments for the next hour, I need to finish this. Rushu: Of course, Your Majesty! (sotto voice) Thank goodness she still doesn't know about the Hoid foot fics...
8. The Kholin Family: Part 2 (Adolin & Renarin)
Jasnah (continuing to leaf through her large book of findings): Adolin, according to my research, the internet thinks that you are a handsome, sweet man who wishes to be with his friends. For example, here. Jasnah: It is mostly you, Shallan, and Kaladin, however you want to read that. Adolin: As...reality? Jasnah: Renarin, if you are not suffering emotionally alongside a stained glass motif, or suffering emotionally as a child alongside Dalinar, then you are with Rlain. Renarin: With him as in...? Jasnah: Yes. Renarin: ... Renarin: I thought we were being fairly subtle! Jasnah: You were not.
9. Moash & Leshwi Read Fanfic
Moash: What are the fics about me like? Leshwi: Well, you either die a violent, horrible death or you make tender love to... Leshwi: ... Leshwi: ...Kaladin Stormblessed? You know him? Moash: Ok so here's the thing
10. Moash & Kaladin Look at Fanart
Moash: Okay...I should definitely get my ears pierced, right? Moash: I mean...look at me. Look at me, Kal! Hot, right? Moash: ...Kal? Kaladin: ... Kaladin: [silently pushing this art toward Moash] Kaladin: There are a lot like this. Moash: What, of you standing? Kaladin: Smiling. Kaladin: People want me to smile, I guess. Moash: ... Moash: Well, I bet you'd smile more if I was always looking hot in earrings, huh? Kaladin: Heh, yeah, probably.

Curtains Poly Mikealsons x reader
Time it took me: About a month
word count: 1581
To anon: Hello lovely, I hoped you liked it! <3
Love <3
Tumblr media
“Why can’t I leave?” You questioned frowning your eyebrows.
“Because it’s not safe Love. Understand that.” Kol said, sighing softly.
You had been asking the same question for about 5 minutes and each person you asked gave you a dull short answer. You knew everything about your mates. Well everything that they would tell you that is. 
You were a witch who didn’t belong to a coven who was surrounded 24/7 by original vampires and one original hybrid. You're definitely not a skilled witch though, Klaus often refers to you as his little witch. You’ve set things on fire in anger when you’ve gotten into a fight with just about anyone. Things or people.. You’ve never tried running from your power as much as you’ve thought about trying to find a way to lock up your magic and seal it away for a better day. The world is just too dangerous to sit around defenseless regardless if you know or don’t know how to work with the weapons you’ve been given.
“Why is it not safe? What’s going on? I woke up and none of you were there just for me to come find you all and you basically give me the side eye when I ask something!” You said starting to raise your voice. Kol looked at you and he could see the fire in your eyes. You were getting upset and that wasn’t something that they could deal with right now. 
Kol walked closer to you grabbing both of your hands with each of his he put them both on each side of his cheeks. It was a little habit that you’ve grown when showing affection to any of your four lovers. When they’d ask why? you’d always just say “Two hands to ground you. Two eyes to calm you.” It always worked so much that when you would freak out or get anger they started using your calming tactics on you themselves.
“Darling please calm down or else you’ll bloody burn the house down.” Kol said softly staring into your eyes rubbing your cheeks with his thumbs. So you started focusing on the feeling of his hands and you felt yourself relax and doing so slowed your heart down. Him hearing this he gave you a sly smirk "Good girl." He kissed your forehead and not a second after he was gone. 
"What the hell Kol!" You yelled out feeling all of your 5 second relaxation get thrown out of the window.. 
Sighing, you shook your head and went on a journey through the rest of the compound to look for your mates. When you did they all were in the same room huddled up together basically whispering with the occasional yell from each other.
“What’s going on?” You asked, smiling softly in hope to soften them up to spill the beans.
“Nothing of your concern.” Klaus said immediately.
While Klaus, Elijah, Rebekah and Kol were huddled up Freya was off to the side mixing up some herbs. You couldn’t tell what they were but off the back you knew they were very strong protection herbs. 
“What’s going on?” You asked sternly, shifting your eyes between your four loves and Freya.
“It’s nothing-”
“Stop fucking with me and tell me what’s going on! Tell me why you have the walls sealed up like were all stuck here in hell on earth it’s fucking hot in here! Why is it so hot!” You ranted as your mates watched you with wide eyes. Some eyes were full of shock, others were filled with admiration.  
“Oh my god the curtains!” Freya said, jumping up, making you turn around to see that you set the curtains in the room on fire. 
“My what is your constant need to try to burn us all to oblivion my little witch?” Klaus questioned. Turning to him you only saw admiration from him. 
It was one of the things that made you love him more and more. The fact that you could burn the whole world to ash he would be right next to you cheering you on with a smile on his face. Elijah would lecture you on how you’d feel after the world was finished burning. Kol would be on the same page as Klaus, just happy to start some chaos with his love by his side. And Rebekah well it would all just depend on her mood of that day.
It made you feel less of a freak. An uncontrollable freak. 
“I didn’t mean to.” You said calmly. 
Freya tamed the fire with her powers but they've all learned that your flames only go out depending on your mood. And as long as you were upset or irritated the flames could and would raise at any given time. So the only reasonable thing would be to tell you what’s going on.
“Come on Nik wouldn’t you rather her know or burn down the bloody compound?” Rebekah asked, looking at Klaus.
“It will upset her. And you see what happens when she’s upset.” Klaus said frustrated that this was even still a conversion.
“It will bring her some peace, knee Klaus.” Elijah said always thinking of your well being. 
“Fine bloody tell her and if we all burn don’t look at me for help.” He said plopping down into a chair further away gesturing at someone to go ahead and tell you the news.
“Marcel is planning on killing us all.” Kol said calmly.
“What?!” You yelled out with wide eyes causing the fire around to come back full force.
“Calm her!” Freya said no longer able to tame the flame.
“What did I tell you?” Klaus said, rolling his eyes.
“Bloody hell I liked those curtains.” Rebekah said, shaking her head. 
You didn’t know much about they’re history with Marcel. All that you knew was he was supposed to be a friend of some sort and sometimes family? It was complicated, They said something that you never found yourself interested enough to pry about. So you didn’t. If you didn’t ask any questions you wouldn’t see him as anything more than a friendly vampire who they throw hands with sometimes. You never thought it was that deep. Until now.
“Why is he trying to kill you-”
“Never mind the reason why thousands of people want to kill us for so many different reasons.” Elijah said plainly like it was just so simple.
“They've crafted yet another weapon to try to unleash downfall upon us. It is yet another useless thing that will cease to exist once we're all done.” Klaus said, walking to you. 
As he walked to you he held eye contact with you making your heart yet again flutter. Grabbing both of your cold hands with his warm ones giving you a sly smirk he then said. 
“You have nothing to worry about. Especially if your worries are about us love. What you should be worried about is what curtains are going to replace the ones you’ve just burned down for no reason.” He finished kissing your lips gently but quick as he pulled away he let go of your hands and speedily walked away. Not even giving you time to say goodbye and good luck.
The flames being gone Freya also turned to leave the room. But before she left completely she said “Try not to burn anything else while we're gone yeah?” 
“I didn’t mean to.” You said shuffling from one foot to another.
“I think it’s sexy how destructive you are.. As long as you are nowhere near my closet.” Rebekah said smiling kissing your forehead following behind the two who just left the room. You watched as she walked away and when you turned another there were only two left. Kol and Elijah 
“Kol-” You started but was rudely cut off. 
“Nope, I've already said my greetings and dismissals to you love. I couldn’t bear to do it all over again.” He stated giving you a forehead kiss on his walk out of the room.
“What the hell?” You whispered to yourself shaking your head.
“You should eat something. Read what I’ve laid on your bed, It should give you what you need to know on how to control your magic. It was my mothers.” Elijah said, taking a few long strides to you and stopping in front of you. 
“Are you going to kill him?” You asked in hopes the answer was going to be no. You knew Marcel was like an on and off family member. 
“If we must, I will lay down his life myself for the sake of my family.” He said sternly, smoothing down his suit.
“I thought he was family?” You questioned looking up at him.
“Sometimes family turns to foe and there's nothing you can do but save the family you have left.” After he said that you saw he was in deep thought. His eyes looked to be lost in the mist of fog. Right when you were going to say something he opened his mouth.
“I’ll make sure they control themselves. Please eat.” And with that he laid his hands on the sides of your face and kissed the top of your head. Your daddy issues were screaming, not even gonna lie. When he let go he walked away leaving with the others which left you alone with yourself and the one thought you had.
“What the hell is there to eat in this house besides blood?”

Going to vent to you because this seems like a safe space for Armand sympathizers lol…
LIKE obviously Armand is doing all the wrongs, he didn't have to agree to literally any of this, blah blah etc etc BUT GIRL. if the guy i had been casually dating for two years because he had great benefits one day revealed to me that he was a child sex slave, the thing i would not do is be like 'wow, i guess what you're secretly saying is you want me to turn our relationship into an unnegotiated 24/7 TPE huh'.
And then when he came to me in a panic to tell me his life is falling apart and his employees are plotting to kill him and his protection isn't going to last much longer and i should flee the country for my own safety because he's the most vulnerable he's ever been since the time he was abducted by the crazy torture cult, the thing i absolutely would not do at that moment is surprise him by introducing that dynamic into our relationship completely out of nowhere and then order him to stay right here because I've got a totally cool plan to outmanipulate his enemies and I'll be his master now :)
And then I orchestrate a series of hot public encounters where i blur the lines of being angry and disgusted with him right up against ignoring the boundaries he sets and telling him to do whatever i want wherever i want. and because i never bothered to ask him, i don't know if he's genuinely into it or if it's because i've weaponised his trauma when he's feeling unstable, but like, he's the one who manipulated me into doing this anyway by telling me his sad backstory, so actually i'm the victim here??
AND THEN when I tell him my awesome idea of turning a nazi collaborator into a human eating monster machine and I want him to do it even though he is clearly revulsed by this idea from every angle, I'll berate him endlessly for refusing and be annoyed with him because by saying no he's making me turn her and that's not cool bro, and when he begs me not to do it, or at least not to tell him because it's breaking the rules and he's vulnerable to the machinations of the coven rn, I'll shut him up with my dom routine, and then tell him to come watch because he'll realize he does actually want it after he does it.
and when he asks me whether this is a genuine invitation in this moment or if I'm ordering him to do it and will be upset if he doesn't, I'll be so hurt and angry with him because wow, I can't believe after months of using my nonconsensual game of acting like his childhood master to get him to do things for me, he's acting like I'd use my nonconsensual game of pretending to be his childhood master against him, fuck you for trying to manipulate me right now you worthless piece of shit </3.
like even daniel, the most neutral and ethical judge of whether it's okay to make someone a vampire, can tell the only reason he'd set his one boundary at murdering and cursing another human being for eternity is because it's not hot or convenient, and not because of 500 years of witnessing the most insane vampire maker shenanigans known to Europe.
and then the entire audience claps because honestly i'm just trying so hard and my boyfriend just keeps fucking it all up for me and taking away my choices. literally what else could i have done in this situation :(
AHHHH ANON U ATE THIS UP ‼️🙏 and Yes this is absolutely THE safe place for Armand sympathizers!! I am the Armand sympathizer king and u have just brought me an Armand sympathizer gift lined with gold and jewels and placed it in front of my thrown and I’m knighting u Armand sympathizer general as I bow before u
ur so right and it’s actually so crazy to me that this isn’t a more popular take. it’s insane to me bcus im remembering how seriously this fandom was taking Claudia’s s1 sexual assault and how sensitively it was being discussed and now these same ppl r insisting that it’s unfair to “demonize” Louis for preforming non consensual bdsm with a csa victim without any safe word or prior discussion specifically because he told him about his csa and Louis found a chance to leverage control in this relationship. I saw someone insisting that it’s ridiculous to interpret Louis as sexually exploitative for being a pimp because he was a nice pimp and he was self aware about how pimping was bad and like ??? 😭😭 how do I even argue with that, that is just so absurd I’m lost for words. No guys he was one of the good pimps because he “didnt take advantage of his position” (😭⁉️) and he knew that it was wrong to sexually exploit vulnerable women and just chose to do it anyway so see it wasn’t that bad. And because Louis knows sexual abuse is wrong and chooses to do it anyway despite this he clearly isn’t mirroring the sexual abuse Armand experienced in his non consensual power play dynamic with him because uh yeah he wouldn’t do that ig 😭. It’s not like Louis canonically is capable of using sexual exploitation to manipulate people’s vulnerabilities for his stability and gain. Like guys book Louis also felt guilty for being a slave owner and knew it was wrong 😭😭 am I gonna hear “it’s unfair to say Louis being a slave owner was indicative of his negative traits cuz he felt bad about it” come out of ur mouths 😭⁉️cuz oh my god I hope not 😭 “Louis was only a pimp because pimping was his way of keeping his family afloat and asserting the masculine identity he felt obligated to preform for his safety” and he is doing the same thing with Armand guys obviously??!! He is taking advantage of armand’s history of sexual abuse to keep himself safe from vulnerability with the coven and to assert his masculine identity as a shield like 😭 and that doesn’t stop what he’s doing from being wrong like no fucking shit. He’s a complex character and his actions come from a place of fear and not straight forward evil, but that doesn’t mean u have to defend literal sexual abuse to analyze that and to enjoy Louis as ur favorite character 😭 I keep saying this but louis is a great character and there’s nothing wrong with him being ur fav but it is pretty mf weird to insist that everything he does is ok when things that he do include like, non consent 😭
I feel ur annoyances so hard anon, it’s driving me a lil crazy rn cuz in s2 ep6’s wake i have barely seen anyone discuss the Louis fucking Armand in the coffin scene like it was pretty shitty and abusive and not like, non complexly hot and fun and nothing else. Like, Armand has been panicking for a while and insisting to Louis that he is loosing respect from the coven and therefore his control and he’s in danger because of it, and Louis decides to stroll into Armand’s office unannounced, demand he strip for him immediately, demand again without any room for argument when Armand says he can’t, and then fuck Armand in view and ear shot of the whole coven in a degrading power assertion that Louis knows will put Armand in even more of a vulnerable and compromising position, like ?? I get it read the pages to me while I fuck u was pretty hot but omg can we talk about this with some nuance 😭⁉️ this is possibly the most overt instance of Louis not asking, *demanding* that Armand sexually submit and preform for him specifically as a grab to assert dominance over the coven. And Armand of course won’t say no, he’s been quite literally trained to believe that he has services that people r entitled to take from him at any time because he’s a product to be used. He also believes that saying no is not an option because submitting to the master will keep him safe, and Louis I think knows this to an extent and knows that taking advantage of this will help him stay afloat. I believe that this scene was a significant contributor to Armand deciding to betray Louis, because Louis’s actions *do* put him in danger with the coven and cause him to loose his position of power (Santiago mocking him for getting fucked by Louis cough cough). And Armand at this point is realizing, I can choose to be in a relationship with Louis that is causing my sense of stability and safety to fall apart, or I can choose to regain my position of power by forgoing Louis and getting to retain my safety. When u think about it like that it makes perfect sense for him to do that 😭 and I’m tired of seeing takes treating Armand like he’s a sneaky little snake and not a cornered animal
on the subject of Daniel because u mentioned him at the end there, oh my god it has pissed me off since the beginning how a lot of people act like Daniel is the embodiment of the neutral, unbiased correct word of god figure who is just telling the audience how it really is. Like?? No??? 😭😭 Daniel is a shitty journalist and a shitty person, he’s borderline racist and ignorant, he is not looking to expand his perspective or approach his subjects with any empathy or nuance because he decided going in that he hates them and they r bad, which is like?? Defeats the entire purpose of the affective journalism that he is trying to preform 😭😭 He is NOT the guy u should be getting ur takes from, he is a character like any other, he is not a source for correct analysis or meta or unfiltered truth.
But anyways lol, not to be personal and vulnerable in the gay vampire sex tv show post but it’s rlly disheartening for me to witness this blatant excusing and downplaying of a sexually abusive dynamic as someone who has experienced a very similar type of “but was it technicallyyy non consensual though..?” Sexual abuse. Like guys pls 😭🙏 I thought that “bdsm dynamic that merges with actual, genuine grabs for control and blurs the line between fun sex and real demands or anger” was like considered unambiguously bad? 😭 There asses do NOT have a safe word. In conclusion anon u r everything to me and everyone else um USE UR BRAIN🔥🔥🔥🔥
thank u sm for the ask OMGG ur so well spoken and correct and I enjoyed reading ur ask so so much

Hi! Can you write something for house of the dragon with lovesick/ obsessed daemon and rhaenyra with a swordswoman reader?
They always keep trying to be near her and include her in their daily routines but she just mostly keeps quiet and to herself.
Maybe they confess and try to have sex but she lets them down.
I love heartbreak
Restless and chaotic loving
Tumblr media
Rhaenyra/Daemond x fem!reader
warning : obsession, implied yandere, kisses, touching, power games, tiny emotional, prūmia = heart
Summary : The war was on, it would only take a spark from a flame and all of Westeros would be drenched in blood. But in even the darkest of times, something like love is found between two dragons who could not take their violet eyes from their swordswoman. A covenant sworn to protect the Queen and Prince Regent, but what happens when these vows come face to face with the love of her liege?
info : I am very happy about this request dear anon sorry for the little wait i hope you like it and everyone else too ;)
masterlist
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For as long as they could remember, they were the dragons that belonged together. The princess of the kingdom of the kingdom of joy and the king's brother the rough prince.
A pair of restless and chaotic dragon riders who needed each other throughout their lives to reclaim the throne of her father and his brother.
A throne that brought them both together, a throne that was promised to her, a throne that could once be his, but above all, it was a throne protected by the bodyguard of the majesty of royalty. A sword equipped with the white cloak of oaths that they all emitted, but above all it was a woman as commander of the royal guard for Rhaenyra.
A bond no a fascination that went way back to the time when Rhaenyra personally chose her bodyguard and decided on her, a tournament participant who lost to Daemon who could not take his violet eyes off her just as little as his not did who now had the older one around her all the time.
,,My thanks to you forever, my prūmia," the princess had once told her when she had shorn Rhaenyra from a tumult and felt the princess pressing against her, perhaps out of fear, but there was fascination in the violet eyes as the white cloak wrapped around the Tararyen and she only did her duty.
As commander, she had only done her job, her duty, her duty that she had sworn to do, but the princess's looks had not escaped her notice. at first they were almost amused looks, joyful looks, but it was the looks of the violet eyes that first turned into fascination for the prince.
The prince of the realm, the brother of the king, a man who challenged his niece's white sword to fights and small tournaments, be it sword fighting, archery or approaching dragons, in which he always won, even if Caraxes and especially Syrax were more than happy to have the commander with them, as the dragons sensed that their riders were taken with the woman.
But the longer the time dragged on, the longer Rhaenyra was at her side with her sworn sword, the more pain she suffered from the rising and setting moons and suns, the more she lost herself in the strong arms of the slightly older one. ,,I-I command you not to leave me, do you understand?" Rhaenyra demanded as the princess was held by her with tears in her eyes, the news of her betrothal to Laenor and the ongoing quarrel with her stepmother or even her former friend understandably taking their toll on her.
The armor rattled slightly as her arms tightened around Rhaenyra and she hugged the princess to her, smelling the scent of fire the dragon smelled, a scent that always surrounded the princess. She stroked her back before saying, ,,Of course princess I'll stay with you…I'll stay with you Rhaenyra" she replied feeling the light haired girl sniffle and yet seeming relieved not knowing that these words would still be true decades later when she was no longer the princess but the queen.
The same was true for Daemon when the prince took her away from the princess on Caraxes to hear her swear, ,,You belong to my beloved niece the princess and me, do you understand? " was a question a question several hundred meters above the ground a question that didn't allow for a no and as best she could she indicated a bow while her hands held tightly in the leather of the saddle and the wind swept around her but the violet of her eyes never left her form…and the feeling that she had promised her life to two dragons from the beginning would never leave her.
Promises and words that did not diminish over the years - on the contrary, with each successive tragedy, not only did the two dragons seem to grow closer, but the sworn sword also seemed to come under the fire of the dragons.
She had no choice, she had sworn to protect the princess, the heir to the throne, and thus, after a few years, Daemon the Prince Regent, as the title later became.
A title and a crown were the only things it took to create the black party, a party that had been forming for a long time: be it when she flew out to Syrax with Rhaenyra, she felt the hand of the princess on hers, now a woman older but even prettier, holding her whenever Daemon wasn't there.
,,The flights are all the more beautiful with you" the princess always tried to find a seeming beginning of something bigger a touch even once a kiss when they were in a sea of clouds a short kiss she had returned out of reflex seeing Rhaenyra's smile but it didn't matter it had happened and in the end she had no choice.
It seemed as if dragon love continued to watch over each tragedy with each outing with Rhaenyra the harder the training with Daemon he woke her at times of loneliness the training in the dark too close together his hands not finding each other on her armor she felt his hands searching her cheeks, her body and she too could not resist any of the prince's commands.
But these temptations seemed to be in the past so she hoped and prayed to the old and new gods that she could continue to perform her duty because a sword, a sworn sword at the end of the day was powerless against a love of fire.
But as much as she held back her position, she hurried back there when she wasn't being worked into the most unnecessary deeds by the two on Dragonstone. Be it guarding Daemon who was sharpening his sword or Rhaenyra who wanted someone to braid her hair even though she had a maid.
There were moments and attempts in which the heavy armor seemed out of place, ,,You can make yourself comfortable my commander," Daemond said, offering her a seat next to him, but as always, she withdrew from his touch and affirmed her vow, ,,Your protection my Prince Regent comes first," she had replied curtly, but the dragon's gaze, the violet of his eyes, did not leave her.
The same with the black queen, as handsome as she was in her evening gown, she was still harsh, ,,Take off your armor dear, I want a friend by the fire, not a knight," she had ordered and sat down on the two-seater by the fireplace, but even if she had to obey an order, she insisted on the rules.
She made her way over to Rhaenyra but remained standing there, shaking her head imperceptibly, ,,Begone my queen…but I would not be able to serve you," she said, seeing the smirk on the Targaryen's lips as she took a sip of wine and warmed herself by the fire even though she always seemed to be warm.
Instead, she felt her hand rough from holding onto Syrax on her armor, tracing the marks and lost in thought, ,,Always so full of duty, my sword," Rhaenyra murmured her thoughts before sending her sworn sword back to its post, a grateful gesture the older woman accepted.
But the more the war for the throne dragged on across Westeros - a war that was inevitable - the more tense the royal couple seemed to become. A couple who sought comfort in wine and quarrelling, but it was two dragons who wanted to take what was rightfully theirs by night. She saw the need for protection in Rhaenyra's gaze, the lust in Daemond's eyes, violet pairs of eyes looking at her, slowly removing the armor from her body.
,,My queen, I-" but she was interrupted by an attempted kiss from the prince, who loosened her cloak, the heavy fabric slid to the ground and Rhaenyra undid the buckle, the armor finally removed as she felt the queen's warm hand on her cool skin. ,,I command it," she breathed eagerly and violet eyes sought hers as the queen also gave a kiss but as much as she felt the royal Targayren couple wanted her, it hurt her to pull away at the same time.
As much as she had known this obssesion, this love, this coin of the Targayren for years, she knew she would not make it in the madness of the dragons. It would only make everything more difficult in a war, swords had to be busy and vigilant, which she couldn't be with two dragons blocking her view.
With a hard jerk, she pushed Rhaenyra away from her, who was being held by Daemon, indignation and hurt in her eyes as they both realized what she was doing, what the woman they wanted to love was doing.
But it was the right thing to do, the right thing to resist so as not to lose the two people she had ever loved. ,,Please forgive me my queen my prince… but at such a time I would not forgive losing you" she murmured gathering up her armor and clutching her cloak almost sickly the white unstained by the blood and death by fire of the dragons before bowing and hurrying from the room she saw yet for the first time the dragons did not emit fire, it was tears and despair that showed in the violet eyes that in this dark time only made her long for one last love before the end of House Tarayren. Whether she wanted it or not she would get it whether there was blood and fire in the end or not

Word count: 3.7k
Taglist: (if you wanna be added or taken off, send me a dm or an ask):

Moonlight shines on the coven, the light illuminating the white building as it shines through the large windows. It was quiet, the only noises ocassionally to be heard, cars driving past the street outside the coven. Cordelia slowly woke from her slumber, looking over to her right, seeing two of her lovers peacefully asleep.
Billie had her arms wrapped around you, both of you looking so comfortable and peaceful that it brings a warmth to her heart. Of course she notices the absence of Wilhemina. She slowly gets out of bed, quiet enough not to wake you, before sliding into her slippers next to her bedside and quietly leaving the room.
The supreme knew there was only one place Wilhemina would hide away from the shadows of the night as she makes her way to Wilheminas office. Her silk nightgown iluminating the coven further. As she quietly knocks and enters, she finds the redhead standing by the window, holding onto her cane tightly as her eyes avert the window and make their way to the blonde entering the room.
Cordelia makes her way over, gently placing her hand on the redheads and giving her a comforting smile. ,,Can't sleep hm?'' she gently asks. Wilhemina averts her gaze, looking out the window yet again. In response she simply shakes her head, knowing well enough by now that her girlfriend and the supreme could easily read her, even if she didn't want to be read and her emotion so raw and open for people to see.
,,Talk to me darling, this isn't the first time lately'' Cordelia softly suggests. The redheads facial expression quickly turns into a slightly bitter one as her hand grips tighter around her cane, controlling her other hand that is held by Cordelia just enough not to tighten. ,,I can tell you are mad my love'' the blonde implies. Wilhemina huffs before responding ,,Of course I am, we have failed her. We were meant to protect her not the other way around''. The supreme sighs in response, trying to control her own emotions and fighting back tears.
,,She needs you, she needs all of us now more than ever''. Cordelia replies trying not to think back of that day, to the events that her lover suggested but emotions and flashbacks pull her into that day again as if it was yesterday.
It was the last day of Delia being gone at a council meeting and the coven was mostly quiet. The witches studying at the academy were happy to have a quiet day without studies before they would beginn again tomorrow. While the three of you, Billie, Wilhemina and you couldn't be more excited to see Cordelia again. Whenever one of you was busy or gone for a couple of days, you felt incomplete. It was late afternoon, the sun had already begun to set and Cordelia was due any minute. Most of the witches were doing their own thing, in their rooms, the greenhouse or outside the academy gates. Billie had decided to cook, while Wilhemina set the table and you not letting her and instead telling her to sit down, which she didn't like to hear.
As the door was heard, Billie rushed to the hallway first, her being the closest to the front door. She turned around, her face filled with excitement and you following her, Wilhemina behind. However, the mediums breath got caught in her throat as she saw that it wasn't infact Cordelia. She had never seen the person before, dressed completely in black and wearing a hood. Although she couldn't see the persons face, her instincts instantly told her something wasn't right about this. As you enter the hallway you halt, your mind not quite comprehending what was happening before Wilhemina stood by the doorframe, equally confused.
,,Who are you?'' Billie asked confused, the fear very visible in her voice now. The hooded figure simply replied with silence and taking steps closer to the three of you. In their hand you could see an object that you couldn't quite make out. Everything happened so quickly and before you know it, you see a gun being pulled to Billie's head. ,,I have come for revenge'' a deep voice calls out. Without thinking you take a step infront of Billie.
Wilhemina watched the events unfold in shock, her body prisoned with fear, being unable to move. The door opens and at last the supreme enters, the redhead seeing both the shock and also Cordelia getting ready to act. As the words of the hooded figure were spoken, Cordelia trying to rush closer and raise her hand, enabling her magic. The shot was already fired. She watched in fear as you rush in front of Billie Dean, the bullet piercing right through you.
Cordelia couldn't get there fast enough and so the only thing she can do is quickly take the person to the ground. She ran to you and Billie, as you fell backwards into Billie's arms after pushing yourself in front of her. The blood streaming all over you, staining your clothes, Billie's hands and the floor.
The medium couldn't comprehend what was happening. She frantically started crying as she knelt on the floor with you. Begging for Cordelia to make it stop and to make you be okay. Her mind flodding with thoughts of losing you and the fact you had just saved her.
Their reactions were utterly different, despite having the same fear of losing you. Cordelia did her absolute best to stay calm and start a flood of spells and trying to come up with potions already to sped up your healing. Billie was frantically crying while holding your head up, speaking words of comfort to you. Wilhemina however was overtaken by anger. She rushed past you and your two lovers, walking over to the unconciouss figure on the floor. Ripping the hood of their head before letting her anger out in every way she possible could.
,,Wilhemina, Wilhemina'' Billie pleaded before Cordelia had to physically stop her, after speaking her spells. ,,We need your help now, we need to get her upstairs'' the supreme spoke calmy but strictly at the same time.
Successfully convincing the redhead, they made sure to take you into the bedroom and get you into clean clothes as Cordelia put you in a deep sleep, to recover from what had happened, her magic seeming to have worked. Billie sat by your side while the supreme had to take over and protect her coven. Wilhemina helping in any way she could to protect you.
The next morning, Wilhemina was the first one awake and out of bed, standing in the kitchen, despite Cordelia convincing her the night before to get back into bed. The last two weeks had caught up on the usually strong woman, the lack of sleep slowly starting to reflect in her eyes. As her gaze stayed focused, she overlooked the gardens of the coven. She heard footsteps, starting from the stairs and halting by the kitchen. Despite caught in her thoughts, she assumed the footsteps to be from Cordelia or Billie.
However, when she heard a quiet ,,Good morning Mina'' her head instantly turned, her gaze now finding you, standing by the door smiling at the beautiful redhead. ,,Hey little one'' she said softly, making her way over to you. ,,Would you like some breakfast, something to drink?'' she asks. You look at her a moment, her tired eyes meeting yours before replying ,,Just some tea but I'll make it myself'' you imply but she instantly stops you and walks over to the sink.
After a little while, she places the tea cup in front of you gently and you thank her. You try your best not to make it obvious when shuffling slightly in your chair as you still felt pain in your body from recent events. However, you wince slightly and she instantly picks it up. ,,Are you still in pain, little one?'' she asks and despite her voice not showing it you could see the anger in her brown eyes but you quickly shake your head.
The next few minutes are filled with silence, as you drink your tea and Wilhemina seems slightly lost in her thoughts. ,,I'm sorry'' you almost whisper after a while, breaking the silence, laying over the empty kitchen. Her eyebrows furrow, confused at your statement before you explain ,,I know you haven't been sleeping'' you add after a little while. Her demeanour changes and you could tell you shouldn't have said that. You knew the redhead long enough to know what her silence meant. She didn't wanna talk about it, she didn't want it brought up and you blame yourself instantly for making her upset.
Two blondes enter the kitchen shortly after this, Billie pressing a sweet kiss to your cheek and Cordelia greeting you with a gentle smile and kiss to your forehead. ,,Don't forget to have this sweetheart'' she reminds you as she places a little vial next to you. She had made you potions to help with the pain. It was usually no issue for a supreme to instantly heal you after the attack, however she was slightly late and the bullet had already pierced through you and the supremes reaction and spell accuracy was slightly off due to her own emotions. Despite being fully healed and barely even having a scar, you could still feel the pain, although you did your best to hide it.
The three of them start chatting about their days ahead, Cordelia trying to bring some sense of normality into the coven again. Billie talks about the meeting she has this morning and being unsure whether to stay at the coven instead but you assure her it would be okay. Cordelia had an urgent meeting, still working through the aftermath of the events, making sure the coven would be safe and this would never happen again. You overheard a conversation the other day, Cordelia explaining they revealed the hooded figures identity and getting through to the network and the reasoning. ,,I can stay sweetheart'' Cordelia offers but you assure her you will be okay. She reminds you to call or message her if you need anything and where the rest of your medication was and when to take it.
After they had left, Wilhemina got the remaining witches to clean after themselves after breakfast. ,,Is there anything you would like to do sweetheart?'' she asks you but you reassure her she could do her work in her office and that you would go to take a nap. For hours you stared at the ceiling of your bedroom. You tried so hard to be strong for them but the pain would sometimes sneak up on you. You felt guilty, overhearing some conversations as to why this happened and how they wanted to get to the supreme by doing this and hurting the people she loves most. You know they were hurting, you knew Wilhemina couldn't sleep, Cordelia couldn't stop worrying and you knew about Billie's nightmares.
It was around lunchtime when you decided to check on Wilhemina. As you knock on her door gently, a cup of coffee in your hand, you enter and find her asleep in her armchair. You smile softly as you quietly make your way over, putting the coffee on the table next to her and grabbing a blanket and gently placing it over her lap. As you exit her room, you think about what to do. This had been the first day since it happened, where you were alone. Billie and Cordelia hadn't left to go anywhere and if Cordelia needed to, Billie wouldn't leave your side. There had been one thing you had been particularly feeling guilty about, so you decide to grab your wallet and keys and make your way outside the coven, for the first time in a couple of weeks.
It doesn't take long for both of your girlfriends to finish their work, Billie had ended her meeting sooner, prioritizing the important things for her upcoming project and skipping the usual small talk, so she could get back home sooner. Cordelia likewise made sure she told the council everything they needed to know and working on further steps to prevent these sort of events and hold the people accounting for this responsible. They almost enter the coven at the exact time, Billie already making her way up the stairs and Cordelia following behind.
As they open Wilhemina's door, after not finding the two of you anywhere else, they find her in the exact same state you had left her, sleep finally catching up on her. ,,Hi darling'' Cordelia greets softly. Wilhemina sits up straight, pretending this didn't happen, while taking a sip of the now cold coffee. ,,Where is Y/N?'' Billie asks but she is met with the same confused reaction that Cordelia showed as soon as she entered the room and not finding you there too.
Billie is the first one to panic, instantly thinking something had happened again, while Wilhemina did not say a single word, thoughts of guilt and anger towards herself instantly filling her for not checking up on you and falling asleep. Cordelia stays surprisingly calm, checking your nighttable and noticing your wallet and keys missing. ,,Maybe she just went for a walk'' she tries to reason but as soon as the words leave her mouth she doubts them herself, even if this was the case, the danger to the coven and you still hadn't been completely gone.
,,Well do something, can't you teleport to her?'' Wilhemina slightly snaps. ,,I can but I would leave a trace, Billie get your keys. Sweetheart will you stay here please incase she comes back?'' the blonde asks and the redhead nods in response.
Meanwhile you had succesfully purchased what you intended to and are making your way back to the coven. As you walk down the long street towards the academy, you feel the pain piercing through your body again, reminding you it would now be the time for one of Cordelia's potions. The fact you hadn't been out in about two weeks, the slight heat and the pain are causing you to feel dizzy, your legs feeling wobbly and your vision slightly blurring. You stop walking for a second, leaning against a streetlight to your left and taking some deep breaths, while closing your eyes.
,,There'' Billie points out as her and Cordelia approach with the car. The two woman stop and instantly get out of the car, Delia sensing how you felt and holding your hand. Billie cups your cheeks and your cheeks turn a bit red as you see them, feeling embarassed they had to find you like this and knowing they would have worried. ,,Whats wrong sweetheart, where have you been babydoll?'' they ask. You smile and explain through a brave face you had just walked to the shops.
,,Why are you leaning against this thing then, looking pale?'' Billie counters. Your expressions shifts a little and you look at Cordelia. She was always the one you knew you couldn't really get in trouble with. ,,I think its time for the medicine, I just have some pain'' and Cordelia nods before helping you into the car and giving you some water. It takes less than a couple of minutes before you make it back to the coven, a worried Wilhemina already waiting by the front door.
Cordelia nods to Wilhemina, one that symbolizes that you are okay and as she sees the shopping bag in Billie's hand, she figured you had gone out for a bit. ,,Would you like to lay down for a little bit?'' Billie asks softly as she holds your hand, which you nod to in reponse. You let go of her hand and make your way up the stairs and past Wilhemina, smiling at her. ,,Let me help you'' Cordelia ushers after shutting the door'. But only part of her words reach you as your legs feel a little like giving up, their words sounding muffled and you sinking to the floor.
,,Y/N'' Billie calls out, instantly all three of them rushing to your side. Cordelia checks your vitals and quickly figures it was just the exhaustion from today sneaking up on you. With one swift motion, she carries you up the stairs and gently places you on the bed. Billie helped to get you comfortable and wrap you in a blanket. You opened your eyes for a second and mumble the words ,,tired'' before they assure you it was okay to rest.
,,What is happening to her?'' Wilhemina snaps as soon as you were fast asleep. ,,She hasn't had her potion for today, she was just a bit warm and probably dehydrated, she will be perfectly fine'' Cordelia assures, trying to stay calm. ,,This is your fault, those potions aren't helping her'' Wilhemina snaps back before Billie interrupts her. ,,Cordelia has saved her, which neither you or I could have done, if it wasn't for her, Y/N would be dead''. Wilhemina sighs, leaving the room, needing to be alone to calm herself down.
Wilheminas statement forced Cordelia to fold under the pressure a little bit but Billie was right there by her side, reminding her that it's hard for all of us and this was Minas way of handling it and that she knows Wilhemina didn't mean a word of what she said. Billie places a soft kiss on Cordelia's cheek before sitting at the end of the bed, inviting Cordelia to join her there, looking after you.
A couple of hours had passed of them sitting with you, using the moments of you being awake, to help you change your clothes or get you to drink and take medicine. Even if it was just for a couple of minutes at a time. After a while Billie looks at Cordelia before saying ,,I think you should go and talk to her'' and before the blonde tries to respond Billie reassures ,,We'll be okay here, promise''. Cordelia follows Billies advice as she goes to look for Wilhemina.
A few minutes had passed since Cordelia left the room before you open your eyes. Billie instantly smiles at you and tilts her head a little before asking ,,How are you babydoll?''. You sit up a little and as she aids to your side you reassure ,,I feel a lot better now''. Judging from the colour of your face and how clear your words sound, Billie believes you. She passes you a glass of water and you take some sips before asking. ,,Billie could you please pass me that bag from earlier?''. The medium looks around the room before handing it to you.
,,What were you doing out anyway?'' she asks confused and you hold her hand before saying. ,,I know this was your favorite and im so sorry'' before handing her her favorite blouse that had got ruined during the attacks. Billie instantly starts sobbing as you show her the blouse, and you quickly lean her forward and into your arms, placing the piece of clothing next to you on the bed. You hold her like this for a while, before your other two girlfriends enter the room, Wilhemina apologizing in her own way for what was said and Cordelia reassuring her it was okay.
Both the redhead and the blonde are a bit puzzled when they see you awake and holding a sobbing Billie. ,,Whats the matter?'' Cordelia asks before finding the bag and item on the bed. ,,Sweetheart'' she scolds, tilting her head in the exact same way Billie had before. ,,Now don't tell me you left the house, fainting in a result just to buy Miss Howard another piece of designer clothing'' Wilhemina jokes and scolds slightly at the same time. The gesture had touched her deeply but it was in her nature to try and light the situation up slightly.
Billie looks up and slightly chuckles through the tears. ,,I'm just really sorry'' you suddenly mumble. It took each of them by surprise as it finally seems you can talk about what had happened. Wilhemina approaches the bed. ,,Why are you sorry little one?'' she asks, her eyebrows furrowing in concern, while the two blondes look at you with that same expression, Bille's chin wobbling still.
,,I'm sorry that you can't sleep Mina, I'm sorry you have to worry so much Delia and do so much to protect us now and that this even happened in the first place. I'm sorry about your clothes Billie and just everything''. The emotions finally blurt out of you and as painful these confessions are, Cordelia is the first one to start feeling relief, knowing now is the time you can talk about this, which allows the four of you to work on this together.
,,Little one, I can't not sleep because of you, I'm awake at night thinking how this should have never happened and I should have protected you''. Wilhemina explains while locking eyes with you, a gentle smile forming on her face, now the real and raw Mina back that the three of you know and love so well. ,,Sweetie I don't care about my stupid clothes at all'' Billie starts before pausing ,,well in general I do but this is so different, you saved my life.'' she thanks you, tears swelling in her eyes again.
Cordelia speaks last, waiting for her other lovers to finish before taking both of her hands and cupping your cheeks. ,,You sweetheart, were so brave, you protected all three of us and the coven. I worry because of how much we love you and how much you matter to us''.
,,I do have some news from the meeting today'' Cordelia starts, causing for a little bit of anxiety to build up in all of your chests. ,,We have captured the organisation behind this, they wanted to get at me and weaken the coven but it's dealt with and I have made sure to protect the coven better than before. Nothing like this will ever happen again'' she promises while locking eyes with you.
The four of you end up in each others arms. Holding each other through the night, at last talking about the events that took place, how it made each of you feel and getting rid of all the leftover ,,what ifs?''. Cordelia smiles proudly at the sight in front of her a couple of hours later, you Billie and Wilhemina holding each other tightly, your arm wrapped around Cordelia.
And as she finally feels at peace with what had happened, she feels the worry slowly leaving her thoughts and her chest, allowing her to take deep breaths and fall asleep next to you, as you all hold each other. Knowing that no matter what life throws at you, the four of you will always have each other and everything will work out in the end, if you give it so much as time to heal together.

Auntie, I have a question.
In the books Lestat gives Louis the dark gift towards the end of the 18th century, but in the tv show he turns him in 1910. That leaves a considerable amount of time where Lestat hadn’t met Louis.
I plan to write a (x reader) pre-canon fic about this gap in time before Lestat and Louis meet. Do you know what he might have been doing during this time? (Do you think it might work for a fic?)
Sorry if this is a dumb question! Thank you!!
Hi nonnie! This is not a dumb question at all. In fact, it's so great that I made you a gif set to go with my answer!
This is the series canon about the time between Nicki and Louis. I know we can't trust everything said in the trial, but for this I think it's okay.

I'll answer below the cut.
First, let me say that I am honored and flattered that you came to me about this. If you want to DM me, feel free. If you want to come back as anon you can have 🖋 anon if you want it.
Second, even a 2 year gap is lot of time to work with. We know he would need to feed as soon as he wakes up and he's a non-discriminating slut, so I know he would have some fun even if he's still brokenhearted. I think you could do so much in that time! Whether or not you decide to write smut, you could certainly give him a meaningful interaction with reader. You didn't mention if your idea for your reader was human or vampire, either could work, but my brain immediately went to "Lestat's hungry after his nap so he's probably killing a lot, what if he met a non-coven vampire in the French countryside?"
My nerd brain also had the idea that you could see what ports were most commonly used for passage from France to the US in 1908-1910 and I'm pretty sure the main one is in the south of France (used by the US military in WWI and WWII but I can't think of the name right now). Crap, I had to google it because that was going to bug me. LoL Saint-Nazaire, France. Double check that if you decide to go this direction, but it's about 470 km (292 miles) south of Paris by modern roads. There's a lot territory for him to cover if he used that port.
If that doesn't interest you, please disregard! I just wanted to point out that you have a lot to work with even if it's "only" two years between his sleep and New Orleans.
Lastly, without finding a definitive timeline of Lestat for the series yet, I'm thinking he was turned in the 1760s (or around there). If someone has a better timeline that would be great, but seasons one and two haven't given us exact dates that I can find. Anyway, if future seasons follow his plot pretty closely then you might have some of his time between his turning and when he meets Armand (yes, Nicki is in Paris but we don't have to headcanon monogamy if we don't want to and he is canonically often non-monogamous). Lestat as a horny, awe-struck fledgling might be fascinating!
I can't wait to read what you decide to do! You don't have to come off anon to tag me in it unless you want to. I would love that, but maybe I'll come across it when/if you post it!
I think this is going to be great and feel free to come back and discuss this more if you would like!
