ok I'm spamming you back because you are now my best friend ok so I like to dance alone in my room and I keep having a fear of someone walking in on me and I look like a fucking idiot and my mind always goes to the slashers. How would like the Sinclair brothers, Billy Loomis and Thomas Hewitt react to walking in on their s/o dancing alone.
Also here's some songs I dance to
Beautiful end- Strawberry Switchblade
Trees and flowers extended version- Strawberry Switchblade
Jolene- Strawberry Switchblade
Moonage daydream- David Bowie
Man who sold the world- David Bowie
Doll parts- Hole
Softer, Softest - Hole
i’m going to link all these songs at the bottom so everyone else can enjoy these songs but like dancing in your room alone is kind of a superior imo. i’m going to have so much fun writing this one thank you bestie <3
ps. hole is literally my fave like jennifer’s body goes so incredibly hard
thomas hewitt
•thomas usually isn’t the kind of person to go sneaking in on people , he finds it inconvenient but he can’t help himself sometimes. he knows he’s not supposed to be in your room right now but he’s just so curious
•he hears music coming from your room as well. he’s officially so intrigued. wont really knock he’ll just open the door and observe
•the way your body moves- so free and without a care in the world. he can’t help but smile.
•don’t be embarrassed y/n he enjoys the sight. hell if he’s in the mood he might join in. he likes to have with you
•secrete dance parties away from hoyt (´v`)just the two of you letting go completely instead of helping out around the farm >>
•it’s a good way to get your energy out before bed. you and thomas now share a little slice of something special and he couldn’t be more happy about it
billy loomis
•let’s be honest here y/n , billy loomis is going to be watching you without you knowing a LOT. it’s just how he is
•he’s seen you dance like a fool in your room many times even before you started dating. he finds it endearing. you’re just so cute
•it’ll be awhile before you catch on. one night you’ll see him in the tree next to your window kind of chilling. just watching you with that dorky grin of his
•he may tease you a little but don’t be embarrassed billy is more than happy to stop if you ask.
•if you want to sneak into a club and go out dancing he’s all for it. of course stu is coming with
vincent sinclair
•vince feels so bad for spending so much time on his art and none with you. he just wants you to know he cares. so of course he’s going to sneak into your room at night to snuggle
•he opens the door and kind of gasps. he thought you’d be asleep. he will feel so bad so please reassure him that you aren’t upset or he will spiral
•acts like it’s some huge secrete and doesn’t even mention it unless you say something first
•if you were to ask to him to join he’d be reluctant. he isn’t much of a dancer. help the baby let loose
bo sinclair
•cannot mind his business for the life of him. does NOT know how to knock.
•will bust in on you mid dance party without a care in the world.
•and will proceed to ask a million questions about what you’re doing why you’re doing that and the rest
•he’s hurt you didn’t ask him to join in bo loves to dance , he used to go out clubbing when he was younger.
lester sinclair
•lester hears music and he is ready to dance !
•just like his older brothers he has no clue how to knock no matter how many times you tell him to do so. he always forgets
•and just like bo he loves to dance. actually bo taught him how. lester is such a vibe when the two of you are alone

Dad/Family headconons
Masterlist
Aizawa, Taishiro, Toshinori, Sir Nighteye, and Hawks
Aizawa Shouta/Eraserhead
Despite him being that kind of nonchalant, I don’t give a shit about anything kind of person.....he’s a family guy
Loves kids
He just wants you to have a huge army of kids following alongside you hand in hand to visit him at work.
Looks forward to being able to relate to someone else with his quirk
Doesn’t care if they are all girls, all boys, a mixture of both, or even fostering or adopting, he’s for everything
Was kind of afraid to open up about that side of himself when you two got married, but you are all for it too
Feels that he can handle it with your help thanks to having some experience with dealing with his students
Is slapped in the face with shock when you two have your first 2 or 3 kids because infants are, you guessed it, nothing like teens who are all emotional about becoming a prohero
Guess he would be prepared for whenever they would get to their teenage years
Except for periods because he didn’t know anything about them but he’ll probably take the time to learn about it from you
Still happy over his growing army though
Still loves the chaos of it all, plus it’s good to have Aizawa to control their quirks when they start to develop
The chaos also reminds him of his own time in school with his few friends he had....they were always so vibrant and loud unlike him and he kind of envied it (secretly)
Yamada and Kayama (Present Mic and Midnight) loves to visit his little army and spoil them with toys and snacks even if Aizawa disapproved of it
You helped hand out the toys and snacks.....Aizawa could suck it up
Napping piles are normal in this household, so don’t be freaked when you see all of your children curled up or around Aizawa under a pillow fort in the living room.
It breaks his heart everytime though when his kids beg to take a stray cat home and he has to say no....but he’ll end up going back on patrol to feed it and then probably cave in and bring it home anyway
He’ll just shrug off his children’s accusations of him being a ‘hypocrite’ for saying no to their pleas earlier and say something like ‘Well I said you couldn’t do it, nothing about me though’
The tea parties are lit and he’ll crush anyone at a video game
Taishiro Toyomistu/Fatgum
Really never thought about having his own kids until meeting Kirishima and Tamaki
Life was changed FOREVER since meeting them, now he would like to have his own family
It was kind of confusing to finally have the talk of having kids a couple of years into your marriage, but your views on having kids were changed too after meeting the two UA students
He let you on thinking just one or two kids were great, but you didn’t know if you should have been surprised that you were in the hospital room pushing out your 5th child
It was kind of funny to see Taishiro freaking out even if it was his 5th time next to you in labor
Your kids were so use to it they just sat out in the hallway doing their schoolwork or playing games on their iPads as Kirishima and Tamaki watched over them (your labor would always catch them while they were out on patrol)
I picture that all his kids are girls
He uses the excuse “just one more kid, maybe this time it’ll be a boy”, It’s NEVER a boy
I feel that he’s the dad to sneak home McDonald’s fries or ice cream to his kids despite you not liking it
Will take the blame when you catch one of your daughters munching on fries on the way back to her room (daughters will also try to take the blame, but how the heck could girls 13 and younger sneak out all the way to McDonalds)
He’ll also get all his daughters together to bake a cake and also decorate it. The creativity shown by his daughters will always amaze him.
He and his daughters would even clean up the kitchen together...mostly so that you wouldn’t get mad upon seeing the kitchen as a disaster
Gets way into watching Barbie’s Life in the Dream House and secretly really loves our queen Raquelle
All Might/Toshinori Yagi
Just wants one little girl
To spoil her ROTTEN!
Seeing his friend David Sheild’s daughter Melissa grow up and look so happy always made him envious. Young Midoriya also played a huge role in his desire for at least one kid
One child was enough for the two of you and thankfully your first and only child was a girl
Gran Torino will also spoil her rotten along with Sir Nighteye
Will not be embarrassed to be caught sprawled out on the ground with your daughter playing with dolls
He’s actually quite proud of the fact that he doesn’t mind getting down and dirty when it comes to playing with ‘girly’ things with his young daughter unlike other dads
Loves to play Studio Ghibli movies for your daughter.....but Yagi is way more into it
I say this because Toshinori will try to hide his tears while watching My Neighbor Totoro as your daughter is fast asleep on his lap.
He will also sneak in a rated pg-13 hero movie from the United States in when your gone too....and then he’ll act surprise when your daughter would repeat the fowl language she heard in the movie
He would and WILL spend hours on YouTube to learn how to braid hair and put bows in and ribbons
He would bring her to work a lot too to see class 1A in action
Daughter will forever be his ‘baby’, so he HATES the thought of her starting to date and get married.
So when she admitted that the boy ‘Todoroki’ in his class was handsome while heading home one day from his work, he swore off boys....
He wasn’t surprised though, she was always managing to get Todoroki to hold her hand while Toshinori would have class 1A doing scenarios in teams and showing off her hair to him and asking if he noticed anything different.
Todoroki is a good sport, he held her hand and always complimented her hair...
Yeah she was mad at Toshinori and you made him unswear off boys, especially Todoroki
Brings your daughter to work just to brag about how he did her hair to EVERYONE
Mirai Sasaki/Sir Nighteye
Eh....he didn’t want kids, never had the desire tbh
Though something about UA students’ charming personalities making these heroes want families. Mirio got him thinking one kid couldn’t be so bad
You were shocked when he asked to have a kid, but you agreed....after discussing it for awhile to make sure he wanted this
I picture him having one cute, little shy boy
Like the cute little boy with glasses who wears those cute shorts with a bug related shirt that just wants to search for roly-poly in the dirt and grass in the back yard
Very quiet and a bit shy around new people, but is literally the most polite little boy in the WORLD
Nighteye will use his quirk on his son when out looking for bugs to just see if he missed something in the grass or dirt, but that’s as far as he’ll use it
The reason why Nighteye thinks he’s so funny is because your son (and you of course along with mirio) are the only ones who laugh at his jokes, especially your son
Your son finds ANYTHING his dad says or does hilarious. His dad made a gasp of excitement along side his son upon finding a millipede? Instant laughter will follow
Those bouts of laughter from his son is the best feeling in the world to him
Tried to make your son an expert on All Might, but gave up when he came to his conclusion that your son just wasn’t into it.
It was kind of weird at first to find out his son was just simply NOT into heroes, but now he just loves the fact that his son likes what he likes and doesn’t let himself get swayed by others, even his own mom and dad
If you can’t make his little boy, his pride and joy, laugh? Sorry, but don’t talk to Nighteye or his son ever again
He will sit and listen to his little boy go on and on and on and ON about anything and never get bored (or show it). He will sit and listen intently about the cool facts about the bug he found or a plant.
He’d even listen to the longest explanation about a tiny little squiggle on a piece of paper that he drew on if it was being told by his little boy.
Will even put a meeting on hold just to answer a FaceTime from his son from your phone just to listen to him talk about a leaf he made a pressing of....and will sit there with the volume all the way up on his phone too so the others in the room can hear as well.
Will spend all night pinning bugs to a board to frame and label just for your son
Keigo Takami/Hawks
He didn’t even want to date tbh
Though when he met you? The cliche ‘love at first sight’ happened and soon the two of you were married pretty quickly and boy was he a happy man
He didn’t really even want kids either. He just didn’t want to have kids and somehow they end up with a childhood like his that’s not the greatest or most normal, plus he was happy with the little domestic life with you.
But then IT happened. You know, when a mommy and daddy love each other very much and poof, a baby? Yeah....
He was TERRIFIED, but once your first child came into the world, a new sense of happiness sparked within him, like his own eyes opened for the first time to the world
This happened twice more, ending up with his happy family consisting of you, his two boys, and his little girl.
He’s the kind of dad to have his wallet FILLED with pictures of his kids and you. He will shamelessly show them off to fans while on patrol and also to Endeavor....even if he’s seen them a trillion times. Also his office is filled with framed pictures too
He also gets in trouble a lot along with his two boys for playing to rough and loudly within the house by you, especially for flying and being too competitive with video games and ANY activity he would take part in with them.
What can he say? His sons were like the best friends he was never able to have as a kid, he wanted to take in the beauties of having an energetic family
He doesn’t play favorites, but when it comes to his little girl? Sometimes he’ll catch a feeling of her feeling like she’s the odd one out when it comes to her two older brothers and he can relate to that feeling.
So he’ll set aside some dad and daughter time to do the things she likes, like read, color, and draw
He would even let her do his hair with tiny braids and color pieces of clip in hair and many butterfly clips. Keigo would also then wear it out proudly on patrol and check his reflection MULTIPLE times to make sure everything was in place.
He would then shout to the press and paparazzi that his daughter did his hair, showing it off in the process
When the picture would come out with the headliner ‘Hawks’ New Look Thanks to Daughter’ for the news the next day, the look of pride and awe on your daughters face upon looking at the front cover of the magazines and newspapers at the store you and his family would shop at would absolutely melt his heart melt
He’s the first one to pull back the covers to let his children climb in when scared by a thunderstorm or the spooky shadow in their room even if they may be getting ‘too old’ to be doing that...according to Endeavor however, so that information might be wrong
Bribes his kids not to tell you that he entered the house through the window and not the front door

Someone has already commented this, but why isn’t Gabe captain?
Partly it's that Stevie's the better player. Gabe's a solid, reliable two-way middle six player (he really is Jared's mentor in more ways than one; Jared may want to play like David one day, but that's not actually his style, he should be aspiring to be Money Munroe). Stevie's flashier, he's the jersey you see the most in the stands. He's franchise, and he was really the player that marked the New Canucks Era.
Gabe and Dima are the only two players remaining from the Cup team. Like many teams post-Cup, Canucks were in cap hell after, and they didn't go the 'overpay players due to their Cup service' route that some teams do and then later rue. Partly because there's been two GMs since; Foster's a new add, but the GM between the two of them did a careful retool, so they were thoroughly mediocre for awhile -- and he got fired for that -- and now they're back on solid ice just in time for Brian to take all the credit!
Stevie's the face of that new era, his arrival, which involved a galvanizing rookie year that had him shortlisted for the Calder, was a bit of light when they were in that mediocre stage. Plus he's just got that good solid friendly charisma with the fans and the media that has him suited for it?
I think it's important to note too that Gabe doesn't want the C. He's happy to do a lot of the support, particularly in the room, if the guys have a problem they're likely to go to him and Gabe encourages that because he loves his guys. He's also happy to be a go-between with the coaching staff and the guys, and happy to be the YCP ambassador. Happy to be a sounding board when Stevie's not sure what to do. He's good with all of that. In the room, the guys look to him as often as they look to Stevie, and more often if it's something they need off-ice advice with.
But while he's not bad with media, he certainly doesn't enjoy it, and he'd prefer not to add to his media load, and frankly he doesn't want any increase in public scrutiny when him and Stephen's relationship is a) an open secret among their colleagues but b) something they don't really want the public to know. So the A feels great for him; a leadership role without the less desirable obligations that come with it.

Happy New Year, everybody! I know that Literally no one cares or will read this, but I have to rate and talk about what I’ve read this year and this is my page, so deal with it.
2020 may have been a dumpster fire of a year, but I did read so me pretty good books. I didn’t get to read as many books as I wanted (like always), but that’s life. If you couldn’t tell, I do have a preference for romance novels, and these selections are very... 🌈 and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Here we go:
- Lies we Tell Ourselves by Robin Talley (4/10)
- I think I could write a dissertation about why I have a problem with this book, but I think I can just stop with “a white lady writing an interracial queer romance in the 1960s where the lead white character is literally a racist” should about cover it. Absolutely disappointed.
- Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston (10/10)
- Oh my god does Casey McQuiston know how to write a book. Classic enemies to lovers, my favorite trope. This is my comfort novel that I use as a form of escapism, and probably the reason I didn’t read many new books, as I reread it about five times. It’s my comfort novel, and I come back to it every time I need to feel happy. I’ve made three of my friends read this book, and I recommend it to everyone
- These Witches Don’t Burn by Isabel Sterling (8/10)
- It’s sapphic, it has witches, and it’s adorable; what more could you possibly want? The ending left me wanting more. I was finally able to buy the sequel and I can’t wait to get into it.
- Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan (7/10)
- I think this book is sort of a classic when it comes to gay YA. This was a pretty good book, but it took me awhile to get into it.
- Her Royal Highness by Rachel Hawkins (9/10)
- What did I say about enemies to lovers? HRH was regarded as sapphic Red, White, and Royal Blue, which I think is all you need to know to be interested. This book and short, sweet, and to the point. It’s an easy read (I read it twice, both times in one day). I think there could’ve been some more character building, but it’s so adorable I literally do not care. When I say I want more cute gay romcoms, they should use HRH as the blueprint.
- It’s Not Like It’s a Secret by Misa Sugiura (7/10)
- A cute, interracial sapphic love story where no white people are involved (the main character is Japanese American and her love interest is Mexican American). This coming of age story deals with acceptance, cultural differences, racism, and coming out. I think some of the points it was trying to delve into were too much on the nose at some times, but I really enjoyed this book.
- The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue and The Lady’s Guide to Petticoats and Piracy by Mackenzi Lee (9/10)
- A fun romp set some time in the 1700s with a chaotic bi as the main lead? Count me in! I read this whole series this year, including the novella (the gentleman’s guide to getting lucky), and I loved every second of it. It’s an adventure series with some romance sprinkled in (a hella slow burn, but definitely worth it). The whole series has gay, bi, lesbian, and ace aro representation, and I was in love the entire time.
- You Should See Me in a Crown by Leah Johnson (8/10)
- The black sapphic book I needed. Liz Lighty decides she wants to leave her hometown and go to college, but after losing the financial aid she was counting on, she remembers the scholarship that prom queen gets every year, and decides to run. Sprinkle in a cute love story, and I’m hooked.
- The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller (10/10)
- I... cannot put into words how this book made me feel. When I finished TSOA, I cried all night trying to recover. Beautifully written, and I still can’t get over Achilles and Patroclus. One of my favorite books this year.
- Sorry Not Sorry by Naya Rivera
- After Naya’s tragic passing in July, I struggled to find her autobiography anywhere. However, I was finally able to get my hands on it, and am so glad that I did. Naya Rivera was just as genuinely funny and carefree as her previous costars have said, and I wish the world could’ve gotten more of her.
Not pictured:
- Of Fire and Stars by Audrey Coulthurst (9/10)
- Sapphic love story about a princess who has been betrothed to a prince from a nearby country her whole life who instead falls in love with his sister. The main character, Denna, also possesses magical powers, which is forbidden in their land. One of my favorite things about this book is that it’s set in medieval times, but no one cares about queer relationships. The only problem with Denna falling in love with the princess is that she’s betrothed to her brother and nothing else. I recently bought the sequel to this book as well, and I’m excited to read it
- The After Series (books 1-2) by Anna Todd (-400/10)
- I was curious about this series because of how terrible the movies are, and needed to read them myself. I apologize to myself every day that I every even wasted my time on these two books. If I ever see Anna Todd, it’s on sight immediately. Not only is the writing terrible, but the romanticization of abusive relationships is absolutely unacceptable. I think I could take less issue with these books if the author wrote them as a “what to look for in men you should never date” rule book, but it isn’t. I could actually write an essay on why these books are more harmful than entertaining and how I genuinely think this series should have never been published. Also, Harry Styles did not deserve this.
I also discovered WEBTOON this year, and here are some of my favorites that I have read:
- Always Human by creator walkingnorth, a finished WLW story which was absolutely beautiful to look at and delightful to read.
- Lore Olympus by creator Rachel Smythe. I don’t think you can find too many people who haven’t heard of this story, but it’s a retelling of the Hades and Persephone mythology, and I adore it.
- Novae by creators KaixJu. A historical, queer and paranormal romance about a necromancer who falls for an astronomer.
- My Lady Artemisia by creator rimarza. This WEBTOON is a little bit newer with fewer episodes, about a knight tasked with guarding the princess, which starts to prove difficult once she starts to gain feelings for the princess, and an impending threat might cause her to past to come to the surface.
Of course, I’ve also spent a lot of my time on A03. I know I’ve read more, but here are the ones I bookmarked and have come back to this year:
- kiss me (if you mean it) by nerdybutpunk
- Carry On fanfic, short but sweet, absolute fluff
- Camp Llwynywermod by bleedingballroomfloor
- Red, White, and Royal Blue AUwhere Henry and Alex are camp counselors. It’s so good and I find myself waiting every wed and sat for the updates.
I read more this year than I have in a long time, and I enjoyed it most of the time. My goal for 2021 is to read at least two books a month and to expand my horizons to something that isn’t YA and isn’t romance. Also to find Anna Todd and tell her off. Hopefully we can accomplish some of that.

“I know you, Harry Styles”
Summary: Your boss asks you to quarantine at his house to watch over the place and his dog. He then calls you let you know a friend of his has gotten stuck in Los Angeles and needs a place to stay, so he has offered his friend the home that you are also going to be staying at. His friend is Harry Styles. Harry and you get to know each other while you both navigate through this uncertain time.
I’ve had this idea for awhile and im sorry if it’s a little late now, since strict quarantine has ended (lowkey might be coming back since california has been getting bad again), but still i really liked this and wanted to write it. Also look at how cute this sidelook from Harry is in this gif ^^ :) his nose is so slopey
It hasn’t been the easiest write so no worries if y’all hate it. I might do a part 2, but def no part 3 this time, unless it gets easier to write.
Word Count: 4.5k | Warnings: mentions of quarantine and Coronavirus (pls take care if the situation is triggering to you), language, drinking
Enjoy! (Feedback appreciated as always)
-
You weren’t sure what to say, you didn’t want to break that bliss of him not knowing you knew. “I,” you took a sip of wine, trying to gather a bit more courage, you then laugh meekly, “I, uh, know what you do.”
“Damn…” he said. Harry also took a sip of wine, his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed the gulp. “I was still debating whether I’d say that I was a musician or an accountant, y’know, something random.” You smiled, Harry was funny, you decided.
“You’d lie to me?” you said, a hint of flirtation behind your words.
“Oh no, never.”
-
You were living in Los Angeles when the Coronavirus outbreak first arrived in the United States and California went into quarantine. You lived in a pretty small apartment in Silver Lake and you weren’t excited to be cooped in there, alone for at least the two weeks they had just announced. The governor issued that everything would be shut down by morning and you had to admit you were a little stressed. Just as you were about to walk into your apartment and lock the door, ready to shelter in, your boss and friend of yours called.
“Hey Y/N,” David said quickly over the phone, “You know how I’ve just left for England two days ago and I’m already here. Well, since I’m not a U.S. citizen, I can’t come back. Which is fine, but I was just wondering if you’d mind quarantining at my house and just watching over it? Until I can get back?”
You sighed, “Oh my god, David. I’m so sorry.” “The U.S. announced their border closure so strangely, I couldn’t have known...But it’s fine, really, I’m actually kind of happy to be home.” You nodded as if he could see you.
“So do you think you can do it? I’ve been having my neighbor check in on my dog, daily, but I’d prefer a friend to be at the house with him right now.”
“Oh! Yeah of course, I’ll pack a bag and head over right now. I’m honestly relieved you’ve given me this offer. You’re house is fucking huge and my apartment is tiny.” David chuckled at your slow response but happy tone.
You were right, David did have a nice house. His place was up in the Los Angeles Hills, a place he’d inherited from a wealthy grandparent. It was definitely going to be an upgrade for quarantine. David’s place would make it easier to be alone because of his cute little dog around, a swimming pool, a beautiful kitchen, literally anything you could have asked for. You drove up the long driveway, to the rustic house, David refused to call a classic 70’s mansion as much as you insisted upon it.
“Guess it doesn’t matter what I call it now, huh.” You said to no one. You pulled out your spare key, David had given to you for emergencies when you had started working directly under him. You opened the door and stepped inside to the empty mansion. Checkers, David’s dog came running up to you, pawing your legs and howling his tiny voice at your arrival. You smiled, setting down your bags and grabbing Checkers from the ground. “Hi, baby!” You swung him around and he licked your face adoringly. You ruffled his fur and then placed him back on the ground, he wasn’t more than eleven pounds.
Then you went to find your bedroom. You heard your footsteps echoing throughout the empty house and it definitely felt weird. Being alone, in this big house. You wondered why you had to keep convincing yourself it was so great. Then your phone rang for the second time today. David again. You threw your bags at the foot of the guest bed and walked back through the house to the main room adjoined to the kitchen, near the front door.
“Hello?”
“Ah, Y/N, thanks for picking up! And thank you for agreeing to watch the house -”
“Yeah, of course, I’m just settling in.”
“That’s great! But, I hope you don’t mind, a friend of mine has similar luck to me. He was just supposed to be in Los Angeles for a couple days, but he’s gotten stranded there and has nowhere else to go. He’s a good friend of mine and the house is most definitely big enough for two…” He trailed off, slightly anxious to put you out, when you had already been generous enough to leave the comfort of your own place during this stressful time. “So, I told him he could stay at mine, if he didn’t mind living with a stranger.”
“I’m the stranger?” You asked, slightly confused from what David was saying.
“Yeah, yeah I mean, I told him you were a friend and that you worked with me, obviously.” You laughed with some relief, “Ok, I’ve got you. That’s fine, more than fine, he’s got nowhere to go, it’d be rude of me to say no to him joining me in this mansion,” You got a little excited and emphasized the mansion.
David groaned, but finished, “Well, great! Because I’m pretty sure he’s already on his way. Bye!” The line went dead.
You wouldn’t say you were unhappy that you were going to be sharing the house. The loneliness of the empty house had grown daunting the minute you heard your footsteps. But you realized David hadn’t even given you the name of the man you were going to be living with for supposedly the next two weeks. As well, what if you and the man didn’t get along and were at each other’s throats for two weeks.
You shook the thoughts from your mind, trying not to make any presumptions. Then, you began to put away the groceries you had brought with you from your apartment and refilled Checkers’ water bowl.
Maybe twenty minutes after your phone call with David, informing you of your quarantine housemate, the doorbell rang and you jogged lazily to the foyer with the grand front door.
In front of you stood, a man with mop of dark brown hair on his head, some large green eyes, a nice outfit, and an array of tattoos peeking out from under different parts of his clothing. Wait- you thought - this isn’t some random tall, good-looking white guy. And then it dawned on you. David would be close friends with Harry Styles. This is so typical of that man. And for him to never tell you that before. That is especially David, trying to keep this guy all to himself.
“Hi, I’m David’s friend, he said he’d call ahead and let you know, I’m ‘Arry,” he rested one of his bags on the ground and reached out to shake your hand. You blinked your eyes, still a little surprised at who your roommate was going to be, but determined to be chill about it. You then reached out your hand to meet his. You took note of the largeness of his hands and how soft they were. His hand slid perfectly in yours and his eyes intensely gazed at you in the hallway.
“Yeah, he called, I’m Y/N.” You released his hand after realizing you still had hold of it, just a touch too long. You stepped aside to let Harry bring his things into the house. “Do you need any help with your bags?” You asked quickly, not wanting to seem rude. Harry turned to you as he had just stepped into the house and was exactly beside you, he quirked his head, “Oh no, I’m alright, no need to worry about me.”
“Okay,” you simply responded and walked back into the kitchen. You had left your phone in there and still had some things to organize, David didn’t keep his house as clean or organized as you liked it. You always set to work around his house whenever you came by, no matter his protests. Music was playing from your phone over the bluetooth speakers David had in the house, a mix of random songs for the month that you had compiled a couple weeks ago. It was a mix of your favorite artists: oldies and some newer stuff. You turned it up as you got to work.
Your music played loud enough that you didn’t hear Harry walk into the kitchen. “Hey,” he said. Startled, you flipped yourself to face him, discarding the box of cereal you were moving to be with the other cereals.
“What’s up?”
“I know we don’t know each other,” Harry started. You weren’t exactly sure where he was going with this. “And I’m fine if you don’t want to really interact, but I was actually kind of excited to find out that I wasn’t going to have to be all alone in this house for two weeks.”
Your lips quirked up in about a half smile as a soft chuckle came out. You rested back on the countertop behind you, feeling more relaxed at the rest of Harry’s statement. Harry stared at your figure still taking in the stranger in front of him. You seemed fairly laid back and he liked the music he heard from the speakers, assuming it was your selection.
“Oh. Yeah,” you began, scratching your head, “I know, I was excited to not have to be in my apartment, but then when I got here I got lowkey scared of being here with just myself and Checkers.”
“Wait, Checkers is here?” Harry’s mood and tone immediately picked up, looking excitedly around for the little dog. “I think he’s outside,” you said, crossing to one of the many back doors. You called for David’s dog, you and Harry’s third roommate, and he came leaping through the door.
He ran to Harry and Harry knelt to grab the dog and pick him back up. He twirled Checkers around over his head and kept repeating “Who’s a good boy” before placing the dog on one of the couches. On the couch, Harry playfully flipped the dog on his back and scratched his belly. Checkers wiggled and opened his mouth trying to nip playfully at Harry. Harry in turn put his head right near Checkers’ and shook his own fluffy hair in the dog’s face. Checkers went wild, loving the attention he was receiving.
After a bit, Harry let Checkers go and stood up, you had been watching on amusedly, “God, I love this dog, so fucking cute,” he said. You were surprised Harry knew David well enough to know his dog, but you dismissed it. Then, you laughed and agreed with him.
“Well, do you want to get to know each other over dinner tonight?” Harry inquired as you walked back into the kitchen, still trying to finish your self-given task of cleaning it up. “Sure, why not?”
-
It was the dinner time you and Harry had agreed upon. You had showered and unpacked over the past few hours. Harry, from what you knew, had done the same. You two hadn’t talked much more since he had suggested the dinner. The guest room he had chosen was on the second floor, like yours, just down the hall. After checking the time on your phone, you left your room and went downstairs. You found Harry on the couch with Checkers, reading a book. You tapped his shoulder from behind the couch and he turned his head to look up at you. “We said 7, right?” He snapped his book shut after raising her brows, coming out of a reading trance. “Oh, yeah,” he responded, rising from his seat and heading to the kitchen. You followed after him, “So what do you want to eat. I brought some groceries with me so we could cook something or there’s always take out.”
Harry opened the fridge, “Let’s make something, yeah?” He leaned back from the inside of the fridge and threw a smile to you over his shoulder. He was very confident and charismatic in person you had noticed just from the few odd moments you had spent with him already. You liked his music and felt like you should tell him you knew who he was, but you also liked the feeling you got that you were just two normal people living together for a little.
“Alright,” you began, walking to his side to look into the fridge as well, “Any requests, Harry?”
You looked up at his face, he was quite tall, taller than you had really thought. He was a really big figure up close, slightly intimidating if you were being honest. He simply demanded attention just with his presence, something strong emanating from him. You could see that strength in the lines of his jaw, lined in stubble, his green eyes set deeper in his head, the sinews in his neck. In every part of his body, there was strength, yet he spoke with a kindness about him. You were extremely interested in getting to know more about him, for this very reason. How could such a big, intimidating man in size and presence be known for being so kindhearted and in touch with himself and the world? What was his secret?
Harry simply began to remove various items from the fridge, placing them down on the island behind the two of you. He only said in response to your previous question, “Like Mexican?” You nodded and laughed, you’d grown up on Mexican food.
“I was thinking fajitas would be good, what do you think?”
“Yeah, absolutely, how can I help?”
Harry grinned at your attitude, he could tell you were the really fun, easy-going type of person. He was glad you weren’t being weird with him, even if he was a stranger. He finished taking the ingredients from the fridge and then gave you instructions on what he needed help with. The two of you set to work, this time it was Harry’s music playing over the speakers.
-
You sat at the dining table in the next room over from the kitchen and seating area. Harry had told you to go ahead as he finished your plates of food. Moments later, he walked into the room holding the plates. “Ta-da!” He exclaimed while presenting the two plates of food, that looked admittedly, very tasty.
He had changed his outfit from earlier and you were just now noticing. Earlier, it had been a striped dress shirt that he had dressed down with rolled up sleeves and half of the buttons undone, revealing a nice string of pearls, with navy high waisted trousers that cinched at his slender waist. Now, he was in a simple purple knit sweater and brown corduroy flares, still wearing the pearls around his neck. Neither of you were wearing shoes, both wearing only socks. And while Harry might consider that to be a more casual outfit, you were in leggings and a hoodie with a sun on it that you had thrifted awhile ago.
He sat down across from you after placing one plate on the placemat in front of you. The dining table was huge, meant for dinner parties and entertaining, not a traveler and a young employee. You took a bite and hummed in appreciation, but then said, “Wait.”
Harry stopped eating and looked at you, concerned there was something wrong with his cooking. “Red wine,” you stated. Harry’s worried face grew into a grin. “Red wine,” he echoed in agreement and nodded his head. You hopped up from your seat and ran into the kitchen, looking for the cabinet David kept his wine in.
After finding a reasonable Malbec, a favorite red of yours, you grabbed an opener, two glasses, and went back into the dining room where the munching Harry awaited. He was happily chewing his food as he gazed at you as you placed the glasses between your plates, uncorked the bottle with ease, and grabbed the glasses once more to pour the wine.
Finally, you sat down and said, “To whatever the fuck we are about to get ourselves into.” Harry laughed and offered a “Salud” in response. The two of your glasses clinked and you both drank, afterwards setting off to eat your food.
As you ate, you began to talk. Harry started, “So, you work with David?” while taking his fork and stabbing at a cooked bell pepper slice. You finished chewing, “Ah, yeah, he’s my boss. But we work pretty closely, I’m kind of like a personal assistant, but I do more than just his scheduling and errands.” Harry nods.
You weren’t sure what to say, you didn’t want to break that bliss of him not knowing you knew. “I,” you took a sip of wine, trying to gather a bit more courage, you then laugh meekly, “I, uh, know what you do.”
“Damn…” he said. Harry also took a sip of wine, his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed the gulp. “I was still debating whether I’d say that I was a musician or an accountant, y’know, something random.” You smiled, Harry was funny, you decided. “You’d lie to me?” you said, a hint of flirtation behind your words.
“Oh no, never. I would’ve definitely just told you who I was if you didn’t know, but it’s nice to pretend for a little.” He grinned as he said the words, his elbow resting on the table with his wine glass in hand. You ate some more, letting his words linger in the air. It’s nice to pretend for a little.
“Well,” you finally said, “I won’t give you any special treatment, if that’s what you’re implying. As far as I’m concerned, you’re just a guy staying at the same house as me. Doesn’t matter to me what you do to pay your bills.”
Harry liked that. You were very intriguing, the way you spoke to him. Especially now that he was sure that you knew about his music and celebrity. “You make it sound like I’m a sex worker or something naughty!” he said, feeling more comfortable with you with the more time that passed and the more wine he had.
“It’s kind of the same thing...providing a service - that your body is an essential part of providing it properly.” You stated smugly, looking over at Harry from behind the rim of your glass. “And there’s nothing wrong with sex workers,” you added.
“You’re right,” he stopped, wanting to continue the conversation, but confused how to move on from sex workers. “So what do you think of my music?”
“I thought you wanted to be treated like you weren’t a celebrity,” you countered.
“That’s out the window, c���mon,” he said, leaning forward.
“You just want me to boost your ego,” you smirked, liking the banter that was coming so easily between you two, “Like I said, I know you, Harry Styles.”
He scoffed at your teasing and rolled his eyes. He wasn’t actually annoyed, he was enjoying this. “Then you’re a fan, huh?” Not letting it go without you saying how you felt about his music.
“Fine,” you sang slightly, shifting in your seat. “Your music,” you paused again, enjoying Harry eager to hear your opinion and you being in control, “is better than a lot of other modern stuff considered good by today’s standards.”
“So you like it?” He said slowly. That was probably the most roundabout, vague compliment he had ever heard. He picked at his almost empty plate, still staring at you.
You tilted your head and placed it on your palm, looking to the sky as if you were thinking about his question hard. Finally, you shifted your head in your palm so you were looking at Harry wearily. Then you shut one eye and said, “I guess,” before shrugging your shoulders as if you didn’t care at all. Harry let a single blow of air out of his nose, like a short laugh, before standing and taking both of your plates. As he walked out of the room he whistled lowly, “You are such a tease, Y/N.”
He disappeared into the kitchen and you heard him cleaning up. You were about to call out to him and say how he didn’t have to do the cleaning since he did the majority of the cooking, but then your eyes fell to the half drunk bottle of wine. Normally, you’d re-cork it and drink the rest at a later date, but it was still early in the evening and you and Harry literally had nowhere to go. Also, the two of you hadn’t gotten past the work question of getting to know you. There was still a bit more to learn about each other and you were happy to continue to discuss over wine.
Harry reemerged from the kitchen and you held up the wine bottle to him and waved it, “We need to finish this.”
“Have I told you yet that I like the way you think?” Harry walked over and grabbed the bottle from your hand. He quickly poured both your glasses much fuller than the usual standard glass of wine. When you eyed him curiously about the heavy pour, he only shrugged practically saying it’s just us drinking it who cares if we fill up our glasses extra full.
“No you haven’t, but I like the way I think too! I’m very smart you know,” you said with some play in your voice as you walked through a doorway that led to the sitting room. Harry trailed behind, bringing the now less than full bottle with him. You both sat yourselves on the couch, a fair amount of space between the two of you, not too close, but not too far apart either.
You both took long gulps of the wine. You were starting to feel a little warm from it, but you enjoyed where the wine was taking your conversation so you weren’t planning on stopping. Harry’s big green eyes squinted slightly at you from behind his wine glass, similar to how you had done earlier. He lowered it and licked his lips. There was definite tension between the two of you right now. Maybe you both had realized the implications of being alone with a stranger for two weeks with no interruptions and no distractions. Whatever it was, it was intoxicating because all you wanted to do was keep teasing Harry and have him keep baiting you.
Harry asked a question suddenly, breaking the silent staring that had been going on. And the tension was broken the two of you continuing your getting to know you for the rest of the night. By eleven, the bottle was empty and forgotten on the coffee table and you and Harry had scooted closer. You had similar likes and dislikes when it came to music. You talked about fashion and what it was like to get to wear top designers all the time - Harry being the wearer, not you sadly. You asked him what it was like to tour and he asked you more about your job and living in Los Angeles, how it was to not walk around the place and be bombarded with people. Then, you circled back to travel.
“I’ve been lucky enough to travel a lot in my life, too. I traveled with my family as a kid and I made sure my job would have me traveling around, too.”
“Oh, yeah?” Harry took the last sip of his wine and set the glass down, readjusting himself to lean on his arm on the couch, looking at you.
“Was supposed to be with David in England, actually, but I got held up and was going to join him next week,” you mused, finishing your wine as well and leaning your body so your back was fully against the back cushion.
“No way, I was supposed to leave next week, too. Who knows, maybe we would have been on the same plane and crossed paths like that without even knowing,” Harry said excitedly.
You rolled your head to the right and looked at his face, how it had lit up at that unlikely prospect. “You probably wouldn’t have known, but I’m sure I would’ve been able to tell, probably have a whole crowd of fans there waiting for you, end up having to delay the plane for ya’. And I’d be sitting there like ‘which famous prick is holding us up?”
“Oi!” he swatted at your leg closest to him, “Has anyone told you you’re a bit mean.”
You raised your brows at his physical contact and his words. You shifted to your side again and slid your legs beneath you, looking directly at Harry. “Yes,” you said seriously.
Harry laughed at that. At least you were honest, and you were funny, too. You joined his laughter, it felt contagious, the way his voice was so loud, but so jovial. His eyes managed to twinkle even as he squinted, his smile taking over his entire face.
Without either of you noticing, the two of you had shifted extremely close to one another. You finally realized because you felt Harry’s breath fanning over your face. His breath smelled of Malbec, but his over scent mixed with it and turned it into something enticing. You wanted to lean in more, but the only place further to go was his lips.
Harry’s eyes flickered to meet yours, confused yet delighted about the situation he had somehow gotten himself in. The two of you breathing in each other, chests heaving from laughter, hearts beating from wine, and bodies ready to ignite the minute they touched. You remained there for a few moments more, basking in his glow.
And then you whispered, “I should go to bed.” You pulled away and retreated upstairs to your room. Harry was left there, sitting stunned at the whole situation. How had that happened? And what had you just stopped from happening? You were thinking the very same things as you sat down on your bed and calmed your breathing.
This was going to be a long two weeks.

The alluring charm of Henry Cavill - Epilogue
Summary: A few months have passed. How are Adelaide and Henry holding up?
Henry Cavill x Adelaide Park (ofc)
Wordcount: 2k
Warnings: None
Masterlist // Previous chapter //
‘Hello everybody,’ Henry says into the camera.
His beautiful girlfriend sits next to him on a chair, but since she is so short, her legs are dangling off the chair, while he has planted both of his feet on the floor. He looks to the side, simply to take in her beauty, even if it’s just for a short time. ‘My name is Adelaide Park.’
‘And I am Henry Cavill and we are doing the Wired Autocomplete Interview.’
Henry watches these types of interviews religiously and he always wanted to do this. And now he gets to do it with his gorgeous Adelaide.
They recently starred in a new romantic comedy: I’m sorry I hit you with my car. It’s about a woman named Jazz Mitchells, who accidentally hits one of the top attorneys in the country Declan Stanford with her car. Because of the impact, Declan permanently loses his vision. Jazz feels so guilty, she decides she should become his assistent, since she has a law degree, but due to personal matter hasn’t used it. Obviously—it’s a romantic comedy—they fall in love with one another, though Declan has never seen Jazz. It’s hard on him, since he—surprise surprise—is extremely superficial and only cares about looks.
When Henry read the script, he was slightly intrigued, however when Adelaide was sent the script as well, because the director wanted her as Jazz Mitchels, he was more than intrigued. Starring alongside his crazily talented girlfriend made the experience worth while. People already speculated they are dating again, however they have yet to go public. They made up nine months ago, but keep their relationship pretty under the radar. They started out in the public eye and that went south. Despite the two of them not being involved in reality tv, they wanted to take it slow, without the hot and demanding breaths of the fans and paparazzi in their necks.
Henry holds the board for Adelaide, as she peels off the sticker to reveal the first question. ‘Is Adelaide Park Korean?’ She nods as she looks into the camera. ‘One hundred percent.’
Henry can’t help but stare at her and when her eyes meet his, she flashes him a lovely smile. He’ll never get tired of seeing that smile.
‘Is Adelaide Park related to Park Jimin from BTS?’ She starts to chuckle. ‘No, but I wish. Wouldn’t that be super awesome? If that were the case though, I’d rub that fact into people’s faces everywhere I go. Okay, next one: is Adelaide Park tall?’
Henry can’t help but snort. ‘She is everything but tall,’ he says, before she gets the chance to answer it.
She pouts as she looks his way and his heart swells at the sight. ‘No?’
‘Sorry, Addy.’ He bumps his knee against hers.
‘Is Adelaide Park Lara Croft?’ Adelaide’s smile becomes brighter and brighter. ‘Well, I’m going to portray her very very soon. I’m so excited, because this will be my first action packed movie.’
Henry looks to the side again, as he watches her beam with pride. When she got the dreading phone call she had been waiting for and the director told her she got the part, she kept it very professional over the phone. However, the second she hung up, tears filled her eyes and she stood in the middle of the kitchen, as she cried with happiness. For the first time she was going to broaden her movie horizon, something she wanted to do so for such a long time. Adelaide is already training pretty hard, so she’s got a more athletic appearance.
He loves the way she is, but the determination she has for this movie, is something he recognizes instantly. Besides, he loves spending even more time with her, as he goes to the same gym as her and together they work out. He even came to the point where he threw everything remotely unhealthy out, so he can eat healthy with her. It’s hard enough already to eat healthy, let alone when he is going to eat his usual snacks right under her nose.
Adelaide has reached the end of the board already and Henry hands it to the woman who gives him the next board. His girlfriend pries the board out of his hands, so she can hold it for him, just like he did for her.
‘Okay, let’s see,’ he says, as he peels off the top sticker. ‘Is Henry Cavill Superman?’ He looks to Adelaide. ‘Am I? I’ve heard I look like the actor, but I don’t really see it.’
She studies his face. ‘Hmm… No, Superman is way hotter than you.’
He spots the mischievous smile on her face that he has come to love. She sticks out her tongue and he can’t help but smile at her.
‘Is Henry Cavill a nerd? I think I qualify as a nerd.’
Adelaide’s eyes widen. ‘You think? You are the biggest nerd I have ever encountered, you dork.’
Henry bumps his shoulder against hers. ‘Is Henry Cavill dating Adelaide Park?’
After they talked about it over coffee and took a swim, they have been on multiple dates and it didn’t take long before they simply fell into their trusted routines. He moved into her apartment when filming and promoting became a daily routine for awhile and the second he stepped in, he realized he was home.
Not long after that, he met her parents. Adelaide is a copy of her dad, look wise and personality wise.They have the same smile and share the same adorable traits; when they eat, they pout, when they watch a movie, they frown. Her mother on the other hand, is a lot more serious and continued to threaten him. She told him multiple times in an ice cold way how she’ll run him over multiple times with her electrical wheelchair if he ever hurts her again.
He is not doubting her at all, but he can guarantee he’ll never do something that idiotic again. He loves Adelaide more than anything in the world and he would be an absolute moron if he ever let her go.
When they were casted for this romantic comedy together, it was such a magical moment. Despite him playing a blind man for seventy five percent of the movie (minus the beginning and the multiple flashbacks), during certain scenes he couldn’t stop staring at Adelaide. Taking in her beauty was becoming so normal for him, that not doing that felt wrong.
During their sex scene, the director wanted to put the focus on him taking in her beauty with his touch, instead with his sight. Touching her wasn’t a problem for him, because he loved touching her, but not getting turned on by her was the hardest part of it all and let’s just say he had to drag her to his trailer afterwards.
‘I am dating Adelaide Park,’ Henry finally says with a disgusting grin on his face. ‘I know a lot of people have been suspecting it for awhile now, but I can confirm that as a matter of fact, we are indeed dating.’ He holds her hand and she starts to blush, because he looks at her, probably with heart eyes, since that always makes her blush. ‘And I’m so incredibly lucky.’
◎ ◎ ◎
When they are home, Adelaide kicks off her shoes and rushes to the couch. With her eyes closed, she is sprawled out on the cushions. ‘Henry,’ she calls out for him, causing him to walk over to her. He sits on the edge of the couch and she holds out her hands for him. ‘Can I have a hug?’ she asks with a slight pout. ‘I don’t feel too good.’
‘Why, love? What’s wrong?’ Henry asks, placing her hand on her cheek.
‘I think I’ve got that nasty flu,’ she says. ‘I felt a little funny during the interview, but now I can finally relax and I feel even worse than before.’ Adelaide sighs and closes her eyes again. ‘Please? That hug?’
He gets on the couch with her, lifting her on his chest and wraps his arms tightly around her. When Henry gently kisses her forehead, he notices she is already heating up a bit. ‘Ah, my love, I think you might be right. Good thing I love taking care of you. You’ll be better in no time.’
‘We need to cancel my parents,’ she mentions. They were supposed to meet them tomorrow, but knowing Adelaide she doesn’t want her mother coming down with this, something that he completely understands, though he is a bit disappointed they are not going to her parents. Spending time with the Parks, is always nice and he loves her parents as if they were his own. Hearing their stories from pre-actress Adelaide are both heartbreaking and encouraging. They love one another in a way they’ll know they can rely on each other. ‘How about we’ll prepare the couch, so it’s a bit more comfortable for us and I’ll make you some chicken broth? You want to watch some tv or a movie?’
She looks up at him with glassy eyes, a clear sign she is indeed coming down with something. ‘I know you wanted to hang out with David tonight and you can still do that. I’m a big girl, I can manage.’
He was jealous of what Adelaide and David had. They were very close friends and a simply look was enough for them to tell each other a lot. Now David Castañeda is one of his best friends and he loves it when they can hang out together. ‘Not when you’re sick. David will understand.’ He lets his hand run over her cheek. ‘I’m sorry you feel like this.’
She shrugs. ‘There have been plenty of moments where I was all alone when I was sick. Now you are here with me, that makes it more doable. Besides, I took care of you and your upset stomach a few weeks ago. It’s only fair that you take care of me right now.’
He chuckles. ‘It’s my absolute pleasure, love.’
After he prepared the couch for her, even helped her changing into something more comfortable and removed her make-up, he heats up some soup for her, as she is watching television. He has already called off David, who actually has come down with a bit of a sore throat himself and rather hangs on his mother’s couch, so they’ll simply reschedule.
Henry plops on the couch again and Adelaide maneuvers herself between his legs, her back against his chest, as she eats her soup.
Henry prizes himself lucky every single day that he is dating this wonderful woman, who has shown him so much. He fucked it up once, but that is not going to happen again. They are in this together and they are going to stay in this together. The movie industry can be a tough one and at first he dreaded the times that he would be in LA, missing his family dearly. However, now he is with Adelaide and no matter where they are, as long as they are together, they are home.
His phone vibrates and he sees he has a message from his brother. He quickly opens it, discretely so Adelaide won’t see it.
Piers: I can finally officially tell you: the arrangements are made. Good thing you told me this far ahead, because that place is booked when it comes to proposals.
Piers: You sure you can wait nine months before you propose to her?
Henry smiles at his phone, before he presses a kiss in Adelaide’s nape. ‘I love you, Addy,’ he whispers to her. ‘You do know that right?’
‘Of course I know that,’ she says as she looks to the side. ‘I love you too.’ When she focuses back on the movie again, he quickly types back a message.
Henry: I can wait, no matter how hard it may seem. I love her a lot, Piers and I’m not letting her go.
Piers: I know you do. Now when are we going ring shopping?
◎ ◎ ◎
A/N: I can’t believe this is the end of this fic 😭😭 Adelaide and Henry are amazing, but I think this is a good place to end the story. I wanna say thank you to everyone who read this. You are fantastic and thank you for the kind words 😘

Space Oddity | a poe dameron x reader fic
rating: m - sexual themes; phone sex; slight angst with a happy ending
word count: 2.5k
summary: You’re Poe’s assigned communications officer - and during his latest mission you make some discoveries about each other.
a/n: Heavily inspired by the song Space Oddity by David Bowie, hence the title ;)
masterlist
SPACE ODDITY
“Alright Commander Dameron! You ready?”
“As I’ll ever be!” Poe’s voice comes in cheery through the comms. There’s a touch of static, as always when you talk to him.
You’re his assigned communications officer. COMMO for short. Commo #7 is your official call sign. You’ve been with the Resistance since the beginning; you’ve risen in the ranks due to your efficiency of your job and hard work. It’s not been easy; you’ve lost loved ones – family. Everyone around you has. Commo #6 lost her mother. Commo #8 lost his brother. Loss hangs in the air like dust floating in the sunlight. There’s always hope #6 says – but your heart is full of worry for the man you love.
But you can’t let him know that.
Your job is to direct pilots from point A to point B. Sometimes the comm officer is the only voice the pilot has on long lonely missions. A partnership forms, each pilot learns their comm officers voice and they listen for them when all the voices can become jumbled during battle over the comm channels. Their officer can be a guiding light in the dark.
You’ve lost pilots, most comm officers have. It’s the hardest part of the job.
Each officer has a screen they sit in front of in the comms center. There’s a map and readouts of the situation. Each officer’s assigned pilot has readouts and vitals displayed. Items vary from position, fuel, even the pilot’s heartrate.
It’s personal.
Hearing your assigned pilot lose their life is the hardest thing to experience.
You’ve built up a wall.
A wall that one Poe Dameron has been chipping away at for months now.
“Put that helmet on, and I’ll run your diagnostics again!”
“But it messes up my hair,” he’s pouting playfully. You can tell. You know his every emotion. You can tell with every voice inflection, every snicker. Even when he’s silent you know what he’s saying. You’ve fallen in love with him – the constant intimate nature of your role has given you a bond you weren’t anticipating.
“Poe,” you laugh. “Put it on. Then you’re all set.”
“Why don’t you come make me?” he teases.
“Maybe because you’re on an entirely different system?” you laugh back. “Now I know why no one wants to work with you,” you jab playfully.
“That was one time!” he pouts. His voice sounds clearer, he’s obviously put the helmet on.
“You know everyone was jealous when I was assigned to you,” you continue you on. You can hear his ship roar to life. He’s getting ready for takeoff. “But you’re so damn hardheaded,” you tease. He’s learned your voice too.
“When I get back, I’m gonna march right over to the comms center and-“
“And you’ll what? You don’t know what I look like.”
You chose it this way. You’ve chosen to sacrifice your crush for the sake of his life. Feelings can’t get in the way. He’s the best pilot the Resistance has. You can’t let something like your crush ruin it.
But he thinks otherwise.
“Baby, I’m in love with you,” his voice sounds musical over the comms.
“Poe, you’ve never seen my face. How can you be?”
“I know you love me too,” he says. His ships engines roar and he’s in the atmosphere of the system.
“I’ve told you; I don’t want you to see me.”
“But I want to see you smile,” his voice is quiet.
“I don’t want to talk about this right now, besides, you have a fuel leak you need to be aware of-“
“My ship knows the way to go,” he grumbles over you and there’s a loud abrupt sound of static and the line goes dead. You can still see the layout on your screen, Poe’s on the right course for home. His heartrate is up a little – he’s angry. He’s hung up on you.
You don’t blame him really. You’ve not been entirely fair to him.
When you joined the Resistance, you were in a relationship with a pilot. The obvious choice was for you to be their comms officer – but when they died early in the war it left you scarred. You had multiple assignments since and built up that wall.
It’s been years now since then, and Poe crept his way into your heart. You weren’t planning on it. And as your relationship grew, the more you began to back away. You liked the safety net of anonymity. Of course, you’d seen him around, but you’d never actually met face to face. In the long months of being his comms officer you’ve never seen one another up close.
That drove him wild. At first, he liked that he didn’t know, it became a thrill – a chase. But the more he searched, the more you wanted to pull away – and the more you fell in love with him. To be wanted so much was killing you inside. All you could think of was what if he was disappointed?
“Won’t you give me the chance to find out?” he’d ask you. You’d always change the subject.
When he realized you were scared, he laid low. He reminds you regularly though that he wants to see your face.
Now, you know you’ve upset him. Since he’s closed the channel between you, he doesn’t want to talk. You can only hope BB8 tells him about the fuel leak.
Too angry to sit there at your console and worry, you take a comm link with you to get a meal at the cantina.
You know he’s angry, and you’re angry at yourself.
You eat in silence, which you hate. Most of the time you don’t mind a quiet meal. But knowing Poe is angry at you is loud in your mind.
The commlink in your pocket has remained quiet and static free. You look around the cantina seeing other pilots and various officers chatting together. You recall seeing Poe in here on several occasions, often laughing with friends. His smile lights up a room.
He was always looking for you – but you never actually saw him look your way. That’s why you can’t help but want to deny him seeing your face. It would save you both disappointment.
Losing your appetite, you trudge back to your station. You pass by a window and see that it’s dark out now. Most of the comms officers have retired to their sleeping quarters. If this were a mission with a lot of pilots, you’d be joined by them in the comms area. But since Poe is on this mission alone, it’s just you.
The comms station is dark – except for your screen. The blue light illuminates the dark space. As you approach, it’s not only a blue light – but red. A red light is flashing. There’s something wrong.
“Commo 7 to black leader! Can you hear me? Answer me!”
All you hear is static. He’s still got his comms switched off.
Hurriedly you sit down and see what you can read on your screen. His vitals are fine, but his heartrate has spiked – he’s stressed. Clearly. His flight pattern is erratic and unusual, that fuel leak has caused problems as you feared. One of his engines has malfunctioned and he’ll have to land so BB8 can work on it. The biggest problem is Poe doesn’t have anywhere to land. He’s in deep space – in an asteroid field.
That’s why he hasn’t picked up.
There’s nothing you can do but to watch his heart rate rise and watch his ship maneuver through the asteroids hurling at him.
Your heartrate has risen, ice cold fear pumps in your veins. You watch in horror. You can’t do this again.
Suddenly his voice cuts in, it’s loud and you hear alarms blaring inside his X-Wing. He’s talking to BB8.
“Buddy, listen,” Poe’s voice is panicked and sad. “If I don’t make it back and you do, you gotta tell her.”
You lean forward in your seat. Tell me what?
“Tell her I love her, ok?”
BB8 beeps in response.
You watch the screen as the X-Wing approaches a large asteroid, you close you eyes tight. Tears fall from your eyes; you don’t want to watch him die.
The alarms blare in your ears, screen flashing red.
Then, it stops.
Poe manages to land inside the large asteroid. You watch his heart calm on the monitor. There’s still a fuel leak and that engine issue needs to be fixed immediately.
“Black leader to Commo 7, do you read me?” His voice sounds stressed, and he’s out of breath.
It feels so intimate to hear his voice now after his declaration, you weren’t sure if you were supposed to hear it.
“Poe! Thank goodness you’re ok!” you gasp. “Tell BB8 to get to work on that engine right this second.”
“He’s on it,” Poe sighs, still catching his breath.
“Poe?” you voice is small, you know that. But you have to know. “You really love me?”
“You heard that?” he lets out a soft chuckle. “Thank you for noticing this time,” he laughs.
You wince. You think back to the times he’s told you he loves you, he did earlier. You thought it was in jest, not reality.
“I’m sorry,” you admit. “I lost a pilot…one I was in love with – I didn’t want to lose you either. I do love you; I love you so much Poe.”
He’s quiet for a moment. You see his heart spike a little. Happy.
“When you come back, we can meet. But you have to promise me you won’t be disappointed?”
“I won’t be,” he laughs.
“I’m going to stay on here with you until BB8 gets everything taken care of. How long do you think?” you ask.
“It should be awhile,” Poe’s voice has extra static, he obviously took off his helmet. “Tell me a story. I want to hear your voice. I’m sorry I turned off the comms. I didn’t understand why you didn’t want to let me see you.”
“I’ll spend the rest of my life apologizing to you,” you whisper. Shaking your head, you decide to change the subject – but to a better one. “Do you still have your gloves on Poe?”
Pause.
“Yeah?”
“Take them off.”
“Okay?”
“Is BB8 still outside?” you ask. You see Poe’s heart spike a little. He’s excited, even if he doesn’t know exactly why.
“Yeah… sweetheart…what are you up to??” he laughs.
“This fantasy I’ve had, good way to kill time? Don’t you think?”
“I don’t – I don’t understand,” Poe laughs again. His heart rate spikes again.
“You’re alive, I don’t want to waste another moment. I’ve been foolish.”
“You’re just shy, sweetheart.” If you could see you, you imagine he would have winked. “It’s ok to be scared,” he says, his voice taking a more serious tone. “I was scared I’d die out here and never see your face.”
“Poe-“
“Ma’am?”
“Unzip your flight suit.”
You’d do anything to see Poe writhe inside his X-wing. His hand wrapped around himself – pleasuring himself at your command. All you can see on your screen is his heartrate climbing as you tell him to increase his speed and pressure. Static mixes with his deep groans and sighs.
He talks at first. Promises to return the favor, excitement at seeing you face to face. But his promises of pleasure get lost in his throat because of his own pleasure spiking.
Maybe it’s the stress of almost dying, the adrenaline. The love admitted and received. He doesn’t think too much on it. His mind clouded with intense pleasure. His vision goes white when he finally comes, his voice louder than you’ve heard, then muffled with a sharp hiss of him gritting his teeth. The aftershocks hitting him hard.
You don’t have time to revel in the intimacy of what just occurred, BB8 has returned to the ship and you hear Poe talking to him. You’re running diagnostics while shifting uncomfortably in your seat. You’d been busy making sure Poe was taken care of, you neglected your own needs.
You huff out a laugh to yourself.
That’s what you’ve been doing all along. Making sure he was taken care of, but never considering he might want to take care of you. Which you know he does; you have known for some time. But you’ve been too scared to open yourself up to it.
“Everything looks good here Poe, everything alright?”
“All clear Commo 7.”
You watch on your display screen as Poe carefully maneuvers the rest of the asteroid field. Within moments he makes the jump to lightspeed.
He’ll back home within the hour.
Panic. You’re panicking now, you’re going to see him face to face in less than an hour. How do you even prepare for this?
Abandoning your station – you find the closest refresher. You don’t have time to go to your quarters, so this is all you’ve got. You check the mirror. Your hair is a bit of a mess but it’s not terrible. You splash cold water on your face and pat your cheeks.
This is fine. No need to panic. You’ve been in love with him for a couple months now. And you just talked him through an orgasm. You know what his groans sound like. Yup. Totally fine.
When you make your way back to your station, you hear Poe over the commlink in your hand.
“So,” he says. His voice sounds louder over the static. You shake the commlink and give it a look. “Station #7.”
You freeze.
Looking up you see Poe standing in the doorway of the comms center, still dressed in his orange flight suit. You gasp and drop the commlink at your feet. In the time it takes for you to kneel down to get it, he’s already by your station.
You see his boots first, then his face comes to view as he kneels in front of you. It’s all too much and you look down at the commlink in your shaking hands.
“Hey,” he whispers, and tilts your chin up to look at him. “I hoped it’d be you,” he smiles. Seeing up this close has your heart beating out of your chest. His eyes shine, there’s sweat on his brow. His curls are a mess.
“How-“
“I knew who most of the comms officers were,” he shrugs. “Always thought you were the most beautiful.”
“What if-“
He puts his finger to your lips, “nope.” He grins. “No need to be scared anymore.” He offers a gentle hand to you, and he helps you stand. He cups your face in his hands and his smile splits his face. “You really are the most beautiful thing, sweetheart.”
He pulls you in for a tender kiss. When the kiss breaks, his arms wrap around you tight for a hug you’ve been wanting almost as much as a kiss.
When you pull apart, you switch off your display screen, and toss the commlink on the desk.
His hand rests on your back, he needs to feel you. Turning back around to face him, his hand rests on your hip.
“So,” he says leaning into your body. His mouth by your ear. “Now that I’ve seen your face,” he nibbles your earlobe. “Can I see the rest of you?”

Hello! I’m new here. I’d like to request the boys, separately, with a cuddly girlfriend. Or just how they are with being affectionate/cuddling
Oh this has so much fluff potential! I hope you enjoy!!
The Lost Boys x Cuddly/Affectionate Fem!S/O
David
David doesn’t look like a cuddly guy. He wears all black, has an earring, and a bleached mullet. He, also, leads a biker gang and kills people nightly. There’s just something about that that doesn’t necessarily scream ‘cuddle me’! But when he met you for the first time and you enwrapped him in a big, tight hug, he knew he was going to keep you. You weren’t afraid of him, and, most importantly, you weren’t afraid to show how much you liked him. Even if you’d only just met him.
The attention. The worship. He absolutely lives for it. He loves how much attention you pay him, even if he doesn’t give anything back. It makes him feel like a king to be showered in so much love.
Honestly, at the boardwalk, the most he’ll give you is an arm around the waist and he’ll purposely tease you by basically ignoring you otherwise. He loves how many lengths you’ll go just to get a smile from him. Just as you're about to give up, he’ll grace you with one of his irresistible smiles and ask, “Need something, sweets?” And you’re right back to showering him in attention. If you really, really give up, he’ll give you a kiss. That’ll usually get you back to your cuddly self
He’ll tease you for how much attention you give him. He’ll call you clingy and needy, but he never means it in a bad way. He thinks it’s cute, and god knows this boy is attention starved. Between Max and the nightly killings for however many years, it’s been a long time since someone has seen him and seen someone worth giving some genuine loving to. Not just sexual loving.
If you take it as a bad thing, he’ll make sure to keep you from becoming too insecure by kissing your knuckles or caressing your cheek. It’s more than his usual amount of attention, so you must be doing something right.
David doesn’t really give you attention back until you’re back at the cave. He has a reputation to uphold, but not in front of his boys. He’ll sit on his wheelchair and drape you over his lap. It’s the first time that night where he’ll be the one that’s holding you. He’ll hold your knee, rub your thigh, and smooth his hand down your side. He’ll use the close proximity to have easy access to your neck, where he’ll pepper kisses and whisper sweet words. He’ll tell you how cute you are, and hold you tight against him as the boys around him amuse themselves with their own shenanigans.
The only time that you two will really, truly cuddle is in the nest he’s made you inside the cave. The wheelchair is great, but it’s hard to sit there for hours. Usually, the two of you will cuddle after one of your trysts. David will have a cigarette dangling from his lips as he reads, and he’ll have you lay your head on his chest. He’ll comb his fingers through your hair, almost as if he’s petting you. It’s why he calls you his kitten. To him, that’s exactly what you remind him of. When you fall asleep for the night, he’ll smile down at you and kiss the top of your head. He’ll set his book down so he can pull you closer, snuffing out the cigarette so he can bury his face into your hair and inhale your scent instead.
Dwayne
Dwayne is the definition of intimidating. He’s so tall that he looms over people most of the time, and it doesn’t help that he’s got a permanently stoic expression on his face whenever he’s talking to people that aren’t the boys. Sometimes, he’ll grace cute girls with a some smiles, but those are usually only the girls he wants to eat. When you two met and you immediately brought him into a hug, he had no idea what to do. He just kind of stood there.
Dwayne didn’t really understand what being touch starved was until he met you. He’s been murdering people for decades, the only parental figure he has is Max, and the boys aren’t exactly cuddling eachother twenty-four seven. They’ll rough-house and push eachother, but they don’t necessarily hug one another. The second you pulled away from your hug (it was like hugging a brick wall) his mind just kind of went wait, come back. He practically followed you around like a confused puppy after that. He hadn’t realized that he’d been missing anything until you gave it to him, and, as far as he was concerned, that was directly tied with you
He lets you touch him as much as you please. You can touch his face, hair, hands, and even his chest. Though, when you do the latter he may give you an arched brow and a small smirk. He doesn’t return the affection nearly as much, mainly because he doesn’t even know where to start. Once you two have been dating for awhile, he’ll start to get the hang of it. He’ll usually add on to whatever you give him or return it
You hold his hand? He’ll intertwine your fingers. You hug him? He’ll hold you so tight you think he might break you. You give him a kiss on the cheek? He’ll give you a forehead kiss. It’s the most affectionate the boys have ever seen him and they’ll definitely give him shit for it.
It’s why, even when back at the cave, he still won’t wander too far out of his comfort zone. He’ll let you do whatever you want, but he’ll really only reciprocate whatever you give him. The two of you will sit on the couch and he’ll hold your legs in his lap. Just the act of him touching your legs is considered more than normal, and he’ll lean his head against the back of the couch as you ramble to him.
When you two are back at your house, that’s when his walls truly fall down. The second you’re in bed with him, you’re not allowed to leave. This is when you really get to explore all of his boundaries, and he’ll truly just melt under your fingertips. You can braid his hair or give him a scalp massage, caress his face, and hold him as close as you want. He’ll practically be purring under your touch and you are not allowed to stop. He likes to face you while cuddling so he can kiss you as much as he wants. It’s a type of affection that he’s more familiar with. If you ever give this boy a massage, he’ll be clingy for days. He’ll look at you with so much love in his eyes and he won’t even care where you are when he pulls you in for kisses. The other boys be damned.
Marko
Markos the token wild card of the group. With a face like that and eyes as wide as his, you’d expect him to be an angel! Instead, he regularly murders people and gets into fights on the boardwalk. Seriously, he’s had to have his fellow vampires hold him back from destroying surf-punks right on the boardwalk. With a reputation like that, most people would avoid him. But not you. Upon meeting him, you gave him a big hug as a greeting. And, surprisingly, Marko hugged you right back.
Marko is the most affectionate of the boys. He even stands closer to the other boys and is always down for rough housing. But that doesn’t mean he gets a lot of positive touch. Most of the touching he gets is either play-fighting, actual fighting, or sexual touches from a cutie on the boardwalk before he sinks his fangs into them. To have someone walk up to him, see him, and decide “Must cuddle!” is not what he’s used to.
He openly welcomes it though. He uses physical affection to get his meals nightly. But you? You weren’t just flirting with him. You were just a cuddly person. He saw that in how you treated the others as well, and he quickly decided that you were going to be more than a meal.
He’s one of the only boys that will initiate a touch first. He’ll hold your hand, kiss your cheeks, and boop your nose. He thinks that you are too cute, and he’s not afraid to tell you. And when you match his energy, maybe even return the nose boop, he’s got heart eyes for days amd a smile so wide it’s almost concerning
He tunes out the boys teasing and dishes them back the cruelest revenge. He is so disgustingly cute with the PDA he gives you that the others have to look away. There, that’s better. Just because they’re no longer paying attention doesn’t mean it stops though. He wants kisses, cuddles, and pretty much everything you can give him. He doesn’t care if you’re in public! The public can frick off and he’ll pummel the first person that tries to get you two to pull away! You learn fairly quickly that that’s not an empty threat either
Somehow, he’s even more affectionate when you two are at the cave. This boy will straight up just lay on you. Whether that’s on the couch or in your nest, he doesn’t care. The two of you will giggle in-between kisses, and this boy will nuzzle your cheeks, hair, or neck. He likes to bury his face into your neck and inhale your scent as you play with his hair. He’ll wrap his arms under you and let out a content sigh when you kiss his ear, and he’ll reciprocate by pressing a kiss to your neck
He wants to cuddle all the time and as much as possible, and he’s happy he’s found someone willing to be as cuddly as he is. He’ll hold you all the time, even when you sleep. He may even try to find a way for him to sleep with you in the main room. If he succeeds, you two will effectively never have to be apart. Just how he likes it.
Paul
Paul is easily the friendliest of the boys. He’s got a care-free laid back attitude and he’s the chattiest of the four. He’ll strike up conversations with random people on the boardwalk, and he’s known to be a huge flirt. No one would expect him to be a murderer, especially one that commits utter atrocities nightly. They see him, and they think he’s just a regular, flirty teenage boy. When you hug him as a greeting, he’s overjoyed that someone was willing to make the first move. That’s exactly what he thinks it is. He reciprocates it with a flirty one-liner, and some touches of his own. However, they may not be as nearly as innocent.
When he realizes that you’re just a touchy person in general, he’s ecstatic. Finally, easy prey! He doesn’t need to worry about you slapping him because he got a little too handsy in public. He totally just sees you as a meal at first, even if the boys comment that the two of you seem to be getting pretty close. So what if he’s gonna eat you later? You can totally play with his hair! So what if you’re holding hands? He swears that he won’t get attached! No, he did not just give you his jacket as a completely romantic gesture. It’s just because he thought it would look cool and you were cold! Not because he’s scent marking you! Okay, he’s totally into you and totally attached. By the end of the night, you two are practically dating already.
Like Marko, he doesn’t care if you two are on the boardwalk or not. He wants affection and he wants it now. If it’s not given to him, he’s not afraid to whine, pout, and act like the biggest baby on the planet. Luckily, you’re super affectionate even with just your friends. With him, he gets to enjoy a whole onslaught of attention. He’ll grin and smile as you caress his face and play with his hair, and he’ll give you kisses every time he thinks you’re acting too adorable for him to handle
His brand of affection is far more flirty. He likes to pinch and grope, but it’s just how he shows that he thinks you look hot. He’ll reach down and fondle your butt, squeezing it like it’s a stress ball. He’ll totally makeout with you in public, and you have to be careful with this boy. He’s not afraid to pick you up, plop you on the railing, and totally stick his tongue down your throat in front of the Santa Carla locals.
If you go back to the cave, it’s hard to keep his hands off you. He’ll do his absolute best to climb on top of you, and the moment you’re under him his lips are on yours. Sit in his lap? Babe, you’re just asking to end up scarring the others. You’ll be in the middle of having some time with the boys, sitting in his lap and innocently playing with his hair. All it takes is for you to scratch one little sweet spot, and then he’s grabbing you and pining you down on the couch. What? What’d he do? Is exactly what he’d ask when he gets a chorus of “Jesus, Paul”
If you two lay in your nest, you’re asking for a couple of rounds to take place. Why else would you be on a bed? He likes to hold you from behind for more reasons than one. First, he gets to have your butt pressed up right against his special place. Second, he loves how he can completely envelope you in his arms. He gets to pull you close and kiss the back of your neck. Maybe even your cheek. Was that a non-sexual form of affection? Good thing you were asleep so you couldn’t notice.

The Pirate and the runaway Princess pt. 8
Pairing: Amira White x Captain Hook/Killian Jones
28 years in storybrooke maine was the worst that could of happened to all of us, me included. For one I was in the beginning stages of being pregnant and because of this curse nothing progressed! For the first 14 years my life in storybrooke consisted of a job working in Granny's diner. Regina had come in there frequently but I never worked the time she was in there until one day she noticed me working there and our paths crossed. Clearly she had it out for me cause she made me quit working for Granny and work for her as her assistant. In this town you didn't say no to the mayor no matter what. The first four years were a living nightmare doing all her errands and she didn't really care. Needless to say I was there when she had Henry growing up, I'd have to walk him to the school bus when she was pulled in for meetings or pick him up from school. Yes, my sister and I crossed paths but we didn't remember we were sisters after all her name was Mary Margaret Blanchard and I was Selena Marriott. Let's just say there isn't anything to really tell but the moment the curse was broken after my niece had been there awhile, My memories came back in a rush.
"Killian, Snow" Amira said softly as I dropped the papers
Regina wasn't there at least not at first so I set the papers down and I ran out going to find the crew. You probably thought I was going to find my sister first, right? Nope, I went to find the crew first knowing I needed to get my story straight on how I was going to tell my sister she was going to be an aunt. Needless to say i came across Smee first and even though I didn't have my pirate attire I had to keep my act on it.
"Smee!" Amira said
Smee looked at me almost as if in shock and went over "Selena, we wondered what happened to you and the captain." Smee said to me
"I saw him before the curse, he tried to break me out but my step mother interfere offering him a deal. Have you found him?" Amira asked
"I'm sorry Selena, when we were brought to this land he wasn't with us." Smee said
Those words went through my head several times, he wasn't with us here? All I could wonder is where was he and if he was alive. He told me he was a survivor so in my heart I felt he was alive. I didn't have to even tell Smee as he ran off and rounded up the men who surrounded me seeing I was there but our Captain was not.
"Selena, what should we do? Without the Captain we don't know." One of them said
"Your in charge Selena, it's your call." Smee said
'My call? I'm not the first mate Smee was.' Amira thought as she looked at her crew members "Wait why me? Smee your the captain's first mate." Amira asked
"Sorry Selena, but your the captain's girl now. You spent more time with him then any of us." The men said
'Spent more time with him? Oh yeah, we spent time but it wasn't always talking that's how I ended up the way I am now. Pregnant and unsure if I'll ever get to tell him.' Amira thought but she smiled at them "Everyone just stay local and for now keep updates." Amira said
I left them later to find my sister, to face what I knew would be probably disappointment. It was a little time before I found her and her husband hugging each other. Distracted as they were kissing I snuck up on them and laughed a bit. Snow was startled by what I did but I couldn't help it.
"Ami?" Snow asked
"Hi" Amira said
Snow embraced me and I hugged her back knowing I couldn't be more happy to see my only sister. We were the last living family members we had for the longest time and now she was married, her daughter was close in age with us. Talk about feeling old when you're still young and well there's Henry who's my Great Nephew.
"I was going to come look for you but I didn't know where you were." Snow said to me and I laughed a bit rubbing the back of my head.
"Yeah I know but I had to find some of my crew mates." Amira said
It was no lie I was a pirate, even now without my pirate gear I just needed to find the Jolly Roger or some portal to go home to get my outfit back. Snow could tell something was up, needless to say we always could figure out the other had something to hide and I had something to hide big time.
"What's wrong?" Snow asked
"Nothing's wrong entirely just well How do I say this?" Amira said and I thought about my next words to my sister. I chose the only words I could figure was logical "Your going to be an aunt."
I waited but Snow hugged me which was more than I expected but it was true. "I'm so happy for you, have you told him yet? Wait where is your captain?" Snow asked me
I sighed and shook my head "No I haven't told him yet, I never had the courage too. He's not here snow. I don't know if he's alive or dead cause of Regina." Amira said
I wished that was the least of my worries finding him, knowing where he was but it was only the beginning. A mist formed and everyone freaked out, true our powers were gone in this land with no magic. Yet there was a purple mist coming our way and well David pulled my sister to him and I hugged my sister knowing I didn't know what was going to happen as it went in the town. I felt my powers return, yes I'd practiced light magic for going up against my step mother.
Everybody gathered together and for the first time I got to meet my niece who I'd wanted to meet for a long time. You could imagine my surprise when she had blonde hair when both her parents did not and she was powerful I could tell that.
"Emma, right?" Amira asked
"Yeah and you're Selena." Emma said
"Well actually I'm your Aunt. Snow's my sister." Amira said
Emma was taking in all this and I couldn't blame her yet now that magic was returned. I knew there was a way to find Killian. I was going to find him, like he found me in the castle Regina locked me up in but I knew in my heart somehow we'd always find each other. I spent most of my time with my sister and some of it with my crew mates keeping the peace of what was going on.
Keeping my pregnancy secret from them was no problem, I'd come accustomed to lying to protect myself in any case necessary so they never saw anything past what I said. Still when a Wraith was in town I knew that was not going to be good.
"Hide! Stay away from the Wraith!" Amira said
The men followed my directions, one wanted to stay with me but I insisted he stick to the plan. We were lost without Killian and I was biding my time to find him. I didn't think much was going on in town after all it's only been two days of peace with Regina locked away.
The wraith was flying all over town, I didn't know what to do but just stayed in the shadow and follow it to see what was going on. Needless to say it was first led to the jail where Regina was locked away. Now I had two choices here let it take her and we'd be free or save her from what was going on. My answer was simple, I needed the answers about Killian so I helped in preventing it from getting her this time.
"What are you doing here?" Regina asked me
I used the key to unlock her cell and grabbed her by the shirt collar "Where Is My Pirate?" Amira said to her
Regina looked at me for a moment before she laughed knowing who I was talking about. "He's alive Amira. He did as asked but clearly he didn't get to you in time dear." Regina said
"So where is he?! He's not in town!" Amira sid
When I said that she wondered what that meant, still she didn't give me an answer so I had to find him on my own. We all had a plan now on how to catch the wraith and let's just say I planned to jump in with it. One way or the other I was going back to our home land and finding him, I had to do this for me and for my unborn child. So when the plan was started I didn't get the chance to act in time because the wraith grabbed hold of my niece Emma.
"Shit." Amira said
When Snow jumped in needless to say I jumped in after her but it wasn't entirely to help my sister. Partly I was being selfish for once in my life going for the thing I wanted most but if there was a way to get back what I lost I'd do anything. When we landed let's just say it wasn't an easy landing nor was it probably the best choice to jump in knowing you were only going to get the love of your life. I don't know exactly where we landed as I was unconscious with Emma and Snow but my magic changed my outfit without me knowing.

Why exactly do Krupp and CU like Edith? (based on what’s in the movie)
So @warrior-of-waistbands replied to my reply to one of their posts and I noticed that one of their tags said ‘Krupp and Cap probably have their own reasons for why they love Edith besides mutual attraction, but what would those reasons even be?’
Well I want to tackle that because its fun to speculate, but its also a challenge due to how little screen time we get with Edith and her interactions with those two. This is from what I could gather from the film:
With Krupp
-She’s probably a calming/pleasant presence for him (despite also being a source of nervousness and jump scares LOL) and doesn’t have a short fuse like him or the others
A lot of the staff are unpleasant, but she’s never like that around him. Even when she was pranked, it was more like “Oh!” than “I’M GOING TO RIP HEADS OFF!” And when she complains about the smell of the cafeteria, she doesn’t throw a super huge fit over it. And when we see them together, he’s at his absolute best when he’s relaxed and not a bundle of nerves.
I think his nerves stem from not knowing how to express himself towards her, but the first time I saw the film, I noticed he wasn’t being his usual irritated/annoyed/angry/smug self. It was out of character, but it makes sense when you see how different she is compared to the others at the school.
-She’s compassionate and sweet
Edith’s the only staff member at the school who isn’t trying to kiss up to him for something or be snappy and short with him like a few others. I just remembered this, but she tries to be mindful when he’s in the middle of something work related (he was making photocopies of the flyer for the science teaching position during their first interaction) and not take up too much of his time, which I’m sure he appreciates, but doesn’t mind since she likes her.
From his perspective, the casserole was her looking out for him (We know his job is tough, despite the perks having that power gives him, and he has little to nothing to eat at home). Its not like Melvin where the kid has a ‘scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours’ mindset–Edith’s casseroles come with no strings attached, and though she’s trying to hint at her feelings to him through them, she’s not pressing it too hard.
-She clearly knows him enough to know what kind of food he likes that he would eat.
Someone pointed this one out a long time ago back in 2017 (don’t remember who though... was it cicada-rhythm?). Many of us have a specific preference to what we like to eat, and Edith has an idea of what he enjoys (not everyone likes jalapenos and not many like tuna (actually I find it gross due to the smell of the canned stuff). Also, notice that the dish she gives him is comfort food/something you can actually eat any time of day, instead of something sweet or something you’d normally expect a girl to offer their crush. And it was something that takes more than a day (“That’s cause it’s been dry aged for a week.”)
-He might have gotten a glimpse of what she’s like when he’s not around her and liked what he saw at some point (And vice versa if you think about it, because Krupp isn’t an easily lovable person).
There’s no way Krupp would fall for just anyone. He’s obviously known her for quite some time, so it’s got to be more than just ‘she’s pretty.’ Director David Soren tells us in the ‘art of’ book that their wires have been crossing for quite awhile’ so this isn’t a recent crush for him.
At her most open, Edith is playful and fun loving in addition to being quite a flirt. He HAD to have seen her like this before in order for the crush to have lasted so long without confronting her or agreeing to that date.
-She responds positively to his flirting/interactions when they finally do date
Ah Krupp you damn dork ^_^. The way she responds to his “Just want the best for M’lady!” and how he reacts in excitement says a lot. He’s at his most open here like her and-again-they are comfortable enough with each other that you can see them dating more often.
-He’s able to truly be himself around her.
Remember the kernel theory of CU being that small bit of Krupp’s goodness buried deep? Is there anything familiar about his behavior during the date that’s similar to how CU interacted with Edith? He doesn’t have to act like the controlling principal with her outside the school–he’s able to let go and be a happy dork. He’s able to just be ‘Benjamin’ and not ‘Mr. Krupp.’ (Also, notice how he reacted to the invitation to the date?)
With CU
(For the sake of this, it’s important to ignore the idea that ‘Well he loves her because Krupp loves her’ and try to see this as CU as his own person like we all do.)
Her eyes– “But if your casserole is as striking as your one blue eye”/”Oh my... two blue eyes!”
-Edith is unique in that she is the only character with actual colored eyes in the entire cu-verse. This is something that CU instantly notices about her and I think he likes this uniqueness. It’s also interesting because we know he’s someone who doesn’t really ‘pay attention to detail.’ I also can’t help but recall how the first line is delivered, as if he wanted to say something more or couldn’t think of anything else to say.
-The fact that she’s actually pretty.
-Well... this is a given, so its not that helpful. But notice how CU says “Oh my,” when she reveals her face and he just... takes a moment to REALLY look at her with this awe-struck look. It’s tied to the above and he actually might have been just looking at her eyes. But we’ve NEVER seen CU stare at someone in silence the way he does with her.
-The way she responds to his flirting with laughter/appreciation
-So as we notice, he laughs a little after the ‘Two blue eyes’ comment. When she’s won over by it and laughs in an appreciative way, he starts laughing in a more excited way. Maybe she has a sense of humor or way of seeing things that is somewhat similar to his, or he’s just happy that she liked his flirting. Its also probably a clue to him that she’s easy-going/fun loving, which would make her a perfect match for him.
-Her laughter
-Edith has a pretty unique laugh, doesn’t she? It’s hard to describe, but its like braying/hiccuping but without being obnoxious? It looked like he really liked it.
-She’d accept him as he is and not be weirded out by the obvious
-When I was young, I didn’t think CU could be taken seriously as someone’s love interest until I realized “Oh right, its a guy in nothing but underwear” when I was older. Boy howdy was I proven right about the latter the instant I saw Edith getting excited over his unintentional G rated ‘clothes off’ moment.
She. Doesn’t. Care. That he’s a near naked super hero.
She loves it.
In fact, there was an alternate ending where CU carries Edith out of the resteraunt bridal style, but one of the shots would show her REALLY delighted over the reveal. (I think its somewhere on storyboard artist Todd Kurosawa’s instagram page, but be aware that storyboard!Edith is... uh... not super pleasing to the eyes).
So again, this is what I gathered from the movie based off evidence (and what could be gathered from David Soren’s notes in regards to how long they must have known each other). If there’s any more, let me know or feel free to add to this.

Becoming Mrs. Wayne [The Dark Knight] Four
Pairing: Christian Bale!Bruce Wayne x OC
Summary: Demetria Gallagher knew her cozy life would change the second she became engaged to Bruce Wayne. But what she doesn’t know is she’s getting more than what she agreed to. (I am trash at summaries.)
Warning: None
Taglist: @dragonballluver (Let me know if you want to be tagged in this!)
Previous
“27 down is ‘falafel.”
Alfred looked up, shooting a glare at Demetria. Her lips curved into a childish grin.
“The bloody hell is a falafel?” he asked, unamused at the word.
“It’s a fried ball made up of chickpeas and beans. It’s actually delicious.”
He shook his head. “You Americans and your fried food.” He returned his gaze back down to the Gotham City crossword. Demetria snuck another glance at the crosswords, looking for another one she knew right off the bat.
“14 across is ‘David Cassidy.’”
The old man shot her another dirty look. She shrugged her shoulders, desperately trying to hold in her laugh. “I’m sorry.”
Across the yacht, Bruce shifted his attention from the newspaper he was reading and watched the two with an amused smile on his lips. None of the girls he ever brought home acknowledged Alfred (with the obvious exception of Rachel) and if they did it was to ask for something. Demetria had made an effort to get to know and befriend the old man, knowing how much Alfred meant to Bruce. Their friendship and playful banter was something Bruce could get used to for years and years to come.
Demetria made eyes with Bruce and walked over to him, her white babydoll dress blowing with the wind. She pat his legs, motioning him to scooch over. He obliged and she curled up against him, propped up on his lap.
“You looked a little lonely over here,” she said.
He smirked. “You pushed Alfred to his breaking point, didn’t you?”
“I forget how seriously that man takes his crossword puzzles.”
The couple chuckled as Demetria played with Bruce’ slick back hair. The salty aroma filled her nose as the noise of waves crashing against the yacht filled her ears.
“Feels so good out here,” she sighed. “Definitely one of your better ideas.”
“My better ideas? Since when did I ever have an idea that wasn’t good?”
“The one time you took me to that new restaurant and I got food poisoning.”
He laughed, the memory coming back to him. She refused to let him see her in such a state, but he came over anyway to make sure she was hydrated and functioning.
Needless to say, they never went back there and he owed her big time.
Bruce lifted the newspaper up and continued reading, Demetria reading along with him.
“Anything interesting going on back home?” she asked.
“Nothing but the usual mobster activity and an editorial piece about the overwhelming amount of Batman copycats.”
She hummed. “I can’t help but wonder if Batman feels bad about the copycats.”
“I’m sure it gets annoying after awhile.”
“Do you think he feels responsible for them?”
There are times he wants to tell her he’s Batman, but he wants to keep her away from that part of him. He’s been successful so far, why bother bringing her into it now?
Then she changed the subject.
“What’s this?” She pointed at a section of the paper. “‘Witnesses say clown robbed downtown city bank?’”
Bruce took a quick glance at it. “Must be about that bank robbery downtown from yesterday.” He looked over at her to find a disgusted look on her face. “What?”
“I just...clowns...ugh.” She shivered. “Doesn’t sit well with me.”
“You’re afraid of clowns?”
“How could you not be? They’re creepy. Didn’t you ever see ‘It’ or ‘Poltergeist’?”
He chuckled. “They’re not that bad.”
“Well they scare the shit out of me.”
“So I should cancel the clown I hired for our wedding?”
She slapped his arm. “You’re an ass.”
Bruce set down the newspaper. “Speaking of the wedding, I was wondering if you had any ideas or preferences in terms of location?”
She shook her head. “Zero. You?”
He cleared his throat. “I was thinking Wayne Manor.”
Her eyes lit up, a huge smile slapped across her face. “I would love that!”
“Really?” He cocked his head back.
“Yeah! I mean the property is beautiful, plus it’s something that would be comfortable and simple for us.”
“You’re sure you want to do it at Wayne Manor?” Bruce asked.
She ran her fingers through his hair. “Babe, we could go to city hall and get it done and I would still be the happiest woman alive. I don’t care how we get married, I just want to be with you.”
While he never needed a reminder of why he loved her, it was times like these that did. He’d never come out and say it, but underneath the wealth and the vanity he used to mask an protect his true self, he valued the simple things that money could never buy. Demetria shared those same values. Both longed for a quiet and intimate life together which was more than enough.
“I only ask two things,” Demetria said.
“Anything.”
“One, we plan this together. This our day, not just mine and not just yours. It’s ours.”
“Not an issue at all.”
“Two, this wedding is as small as possible.”
He wrapped his arms around her. “It’s done deal.”
As they leaned in for a kiss, the sounds of the helicopter landing drew their attention from each other. They watched as it made a graceful landing.
“The plan has arrived for you sir!” Alfred called out.
Demetria pat Bruce’s knee as she got up. “Have fun breaking off this deal in China.”
Bruce threw off his white shirt, handing it to her. He grabbed the duffle bag and threw it overboard.
“Please be careful, Bruce.”
“For you, I will.”
He gave her a quick kiss before diving into the water. She watched as he swam over to the helicopter before climbing aboard.
She watched as the helicopter flew away before turning to Alfred.
“What number are we on, Alfred?”
“Eighteen across. The clue is ‘Get your own bloody crossword.’”
_____________________________________________________________
A couple days later, Demetria found herself at the entrance to St. Swithin’s Home For Boys. She was grateful the orphanage had taken her call and allowed her to come visit.
She made her way to front desk area, smoothing out her pants. She smiled at the elderly nun at the desk.
“Hi, I’m Demetria Gallagher,” she greeted.
The nun smiled back. “Hello there! We’ve been expecting you! My name is Sister Agatha. You’re here for the tour, correct?”
“Yes! I was hoping to speak with the Mother Superior or Monsignor O’Malley.”
“Unfortunately both were unable to make it due to prior commitments; however, they asked that Sister Mary Ellen give you the tour.”
“Sounds great!”
“Please a seat while I phone her.”
Demetria sat in the bench across from the desk, eyeing around the orphanage. It’s old age was definitely showing. She made mental notes of the broken down wood, the cracks in the wall, and the lingering dust. Her mother would love a project like this.
“Miss Gallagher?”
Demetria looked up to find a nun in her late thirties with kind brown eyes and a welcoming smile. “My name is Sister Mary Ellen. How do you do?”
“Pleasure to meet you,” Demetria said reaching out her hand.
Sister Mary Ellen shook it. “A pleasure to meet you as well. We’re so excited you’ve taken an interest in the orphanage.”
“Bruce has told me so much about this place and I’ve always wanted to come see it for myself.”
“The Wayne Family is such a big part of the orphanage’s history. Bruce has been so generous to us in the past.”
Sister Mary Ellen first took her to the library, named in memory of Martha, Bruce’s mother. Despite it’s broken state, the walls were covered in old books stacked in the shelves.
“Not a lot of boys spend time in here,” Sister Mary Ellen said. “We’ve been trying to get them to, but some are harder to persuade than others.”
“Understandable,” Demetria assured.
Next was the kitchen, then the chapel, and then some of the dorms. While the building was historic, its structure and the components inside were out of date and almost out of function.
There were a a good amount of kids staying in and they deserved a better home.
“May I ask you something?” Sister Mary Ellen questioned.
“Of course.”
“There’s been a lot of talk amongst the nuns about what it is you plan to do and I just...well...what is your intention exactly?”
Demetria chuckled. “It’s ok. I can completely understand the curiosity.” She sighed. “Bruce has always told me how much this place has meant to him, especially after the death of his parents. I know it’s hard for Bruce to give attention to this place and so I wanted to step in and make sure you’re getting not only what you and the boys need, but what you deserve. You all deserve to be living in better conditions and I can guarantee you Bruce agrees with me.”
“What is it you can do for us?” Sister Mary Ellen asked.
“My mother works as an interior designer and would be more than happy to help redecorate. I also know a lot of people who can help make sure this place is functioning properly and is up to all health code standards. I want to make sure you all are taken care of and are given the attention you all deserve.”
Sister Mary Ellen couldn’t help but smile. “What about finances? I know the monsignor and Mother Superior would ask to be kept apprised.”
“They would be. That’s something I’m currently working on, but I want to know what I’m at least working with here.” She smiled. “Although, my mother would do this for free. I know that for certain.”
Sister Mary Ellen chuckled. “Let me take you outside.”
She led Demetria to playground where Demetria noticed four boys playing basketball. She couldn’t help but notice that no matter how hard they tried to dunk the ball in the chain basket, they kept missing.
“May I?” Demetria asked.
“By all means.”
Demetria made her way over to the boys. One boy had black hair with blue eyes, another was African-American with glasses, another boy had blonde hair and freckles, and one with brown hair with glasses.
“Hey guys!” Demetria greeted.
The boys stopped and looked at her. “You guys playing basketball?”
They looked at each other, confused and unsure what to say. She cleared her throat. “My name’s Demetria.”
“I’m Travis,” the boy with black hair said.
“I’m Jonathan,” the African-American boy said.
“I’m Reid,” the boy with blonde hair said.
“I’m Harry,” the boy with brown hair said.
“Nice to meet you all,” Demetria said. “So what are we playing here? One-on-one or Horse?”
“Just some one-on-one,” Reid answered with a shrug.
“You know how to play?” Harry asked.
“A little. My dad was a high school basketball coach so he taught me a few things. Can I see the ball?”
Travis passed her the ball. She dribbled it for a bit before shooting the ball into the basket. The boys stared in amazement, letting out some “whoa”s.
“Alright, so who wants to be able to dunk a ball?” she asked.
They all raised their hands. “That’s exactly what I thought. Ok so watch my hands.”
She picked up the ball and demonstrated the throw with her hand. “See the way my hand curves, like I’m flicking my wrist? Try that.”
Reid took the ball first. He dribbled the ball before throwing it up. The ball went through the basket. The boys cheered.
“See? That was awesome!” Demetria said. She held up her hand for a high five which he reciprocated. “Alright, who’s next?”
Harry went up and threw the ball, making it into the basket.
“Way to go dude!” Demetria cheered, the two high diving. “Who’s next?”
Jonathan went up and threw the ball, the ball circling the basket before falling off. Demetria caught it and threw it back to him, seeing the dejected look on his face.
“You almost got it. Try again.” She smiled at him.
He gave her a nod. He tossed the ball up, this time the ball landing into the basket. The boys and Demetria cheered.
“See! You got it!” she said.
They high fived and Jonathan passed the ball to Travis. Travis dribbled before the ball hit the back of the basket. The ball came back toward him as he caught it, tossed it again and then tossed the ball inside the basket.
The other boys and Demetria cheered.
“Ok, ok,” Demetria said. “Now you guys trying playing.”
The boys then began playing one-on-one, Demetria coaching them and cheering them on. She couldn't help but feel her dad would be proud of her. Sure, she wasn’t an athlete, but she learned a lot from watching him coach from the sidelines all these years.
She then saw Reid pass the ball to her. “Your turn,” he told her.
She smiled. “Alright.”
She dribbled the ball before tossing it into the basket. She grabbed the ball and said, “Who’s next?”
“What’s going on here?”
Demetria turned around to see Bruce walking over. Her smile grew. “Just playing some basketball.”
She watched as the boys’ eyes stayed on Bruce, wide in amazement and wonder. He acknowledged them with a warm smile before gazing at Demetria.
“Tell me, boys, how she doing?” he asked.
The responded, each voice overlapping the other.
“She’s pretty good.”
“She’s good.”
“Pretty good.”
“Good.”
Demetria tossed the ball to Bruce as he caught it in his hands. “Let’s see you’ve got, Wayne,” she challenged playfully.
“Those are fighting words,” he responded, dribbling the ball a bit.
He turned his back to her and tossed the ball as it went into the basket. The boys cheered and clapped as Bruce turned to her, throwing his hands up.
She folded her arms across her chest. “It was just a lucky shot.”
Bruce looked over to one of the boys. “Can I have the ball, please?” They tossed him the ball. He showed it to Demetria. “Why don’t you try and steal it, Gallagher?”
Demetria went over to him as he lifted the ball from her. She jumped, spiking it from his hands. Jonathan caught it and tossed it back to her. She went to shoot it into the basket when Bruce spiked it out of her her hand and picked her up swinging her around.
“Are you kidding me?! I almost had it!” Demetria screamed.
It was then something caught her eye. A figure watching them from across the street.
“Hold on, hold on,” she told Bruce.
He stopped, eyebrows furrowed. “What’s wrong?”
“Give me a sec. I think I see something.”
She walked toward the gate, getting a closer look at the figure. It was a caucasian male with a black baseball cap that said ‘Gotham Times’ on it and a tee and jeans with a bulky vest. Across his neck, a camera.
“What the hell are you doing?” she called out to him. “There’s kids here!”
The man reached up to his camera as she continued to get closer.
“Stop it!” she growled. “Stop!
Bruce rushed over to her, pulling her away. “Demetria, don’t.”
She turned to him. “He’s photographing the kids! He can’t be doing that!”
“Listen, we’ll take care of this when we get home,” he told her. “Right now, just ignore him. The more you go after him, the worse it’s going to be.”
She ran a hand through her hair. “There has to be a line drawn, Bruce.”
“We’ll take care of it home, alright?”
She nodded her head. “I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be.” He kissed her forehead. “You were protecting the kids. It’s gonna be ok. We’ll fix this.”
He rubbed her arms. “Let’s go back, ok?”
“Ok.”
She took one more look at the photographer before walking away. Bruce had a point, they were going to take care of it.
She was going to take care of it.

No. 4 - TRUST FALL
"Do you trust me?" | taken hostage | pushed
Title: Scream Fandom: Shadow and Bone, Grishaverse, Siege and Storm Rating: Explicit Pairing: Darklina (primary ship), Malina Word Count: 2855 Summary: The Darkling is driven to find the Rusalye, and he'll use any means to get it, even hurting Alina in unspeakable ways. WARNINGS: Graphic Depictions of Violence, Rape/Non-con READ ON AO3
“Do you trust me?”
I scoffed, crossing my arms where I stood across from the Darkling in his cabin. The floor seemed to sway as the ship rode the billowing waves of the Bone Road. My collar of antlers felt heavy around my throat.
“Why would I?”
The Darkling approached me, all regal in his black kefta; it was still the silk I was used to, but beneath it was silver fox fur to keep him warm. Funny to think that the Darkling could get cold.
He seemed to grow as he closed in on me, becoming more than just a man. I tried to tell myself that he was just that and nothing special, but I knew better. He was ancient, powerful, and he wanted to use me.
I held my ground, even when he reached out to touch me. At the barest hint of our skin touching I inhaled deeply, suddenly flooded with power, feeling it roil through me all the way down to my toes. I wanted to lean into it, become part of it. He brushed his fingers against my collarbone, and then at the antlers that David had crafted around my neck: the amplifier of Morozova’s stag.
“Perhaps because I gave you this power, Alina.”
“And you used it,” I replied, tone as bitter as sour kvas. “You used me.”
“Because your power is extraordinary,” he breathed. “I want to help you wield it. That’s why we’re looking for the Rusalye. I want to help you.”
“If you really wanted to help me you would let me go. You would let Mal go.”
The Darkling stepped aside and went to his desk, rolling his eyes. “I don’t know what it is you see in that otkazat’sya. He will wither and die, while you remain.”
“You’d like that, wouldn’t you?”
He gave me the barest hint of a smile. “Am I supposed to deny such a thing? There will just be you and me, Alina. He is nothing compared to what we are, what we can do.”
The adrenaline of being threatened above deck earlier wore off, and I had to resist the urge to slump where I stood. Instead, I took a seat before his desk. Or, I suppose it was actually Sturmhond’s desk, and he’d just taken over.
“I’m guessing you want Mal to think you’re doing unspeakable things to me right now,” I surmised.
“Would they be so unspeakable?”
My heart thrummed from the heat in his eyes, the curl of his lips. I frequently dreamed of what he spoke of, dreamed of the way he’d touched me and kissed me at the winter fete, having me pushed up against the door. I had wanted more then, and for awhile I still did. Did I now?
My shoulder twinged where the nichevo’ya had bitten me, as if it was thrumming with his darkness.
In a halting voice, I said, “I have wanted those things, but now—”
He interrupted, going around to sit on the desk before me, “Now you’re happy to roll around in the mud with the dogs. It’s beneath you, Alina.” His body was so close to mine that I couldn’t tell if I was imagining the warmth coming off of him or not.
I opened my mouth, hoping to say something clever, but there was nothing to say. He leaned in, putting a hand around my throat beneath the collar. I nearly moaned from the surety that flooded me, the golden light I could feel just beneath my skin. It wanted to erupt from his mere touch. I was breathless as I stared up at him, mouth agape. Then his hand began to travel down, down, and I wanted to squirm.
Alina, stop this. Stop him.
But it felt so right.
Yet…
He took hold of me at my waist, and pulled me to my feet as if I weighed nothing.
I tried to shove him away.
“No!” I cried.
No, I couldn’t do this. I shouldn’t. Just minutes ago he had threatened to tear into me with a knife, and now he wanted me? I couldn’t understand him. Perhaps the centuries he’d been alive had changed and warped what humanity was in him, but I wasn’t sure I could see that sliver of humanity now.
He ended up pushing me away, and snarled, “Fine, but tomorrow if your precious otkazat’sya doesn’t find the Rusalye, then I get to do what I want. Is that clear?”
I avoided his gaze, even when he grabbed my chin and tilted my head up. I just looked downward, at his chest, watching it rise and fall, wondering how he could be breathing the same air as me yet be so different.
“Is that clear?”
Stomach churning, legs weak and nearly shaky, I forced myself to look into his eyes, to meet that ancient gaze, and see the anger and the want within him.
“Do whatever you want to me,” I said, ashamed at the quaver in my voice, feeling it like a black pit in my gut. “It won’t make this ship go faster, or coax the Rusalye out of hiding. Mal can only work with what he has.”
“I find that people can do extraordinary things with the right motivation.” He turned me around and gave my rump a little tap. The sensation startled me, shooting star-flecked bolts all the way down to my toes. “Get going.”
~~~
The next day came, and the Rusalye still hadn’t been found. I had discussed what had happened in the cabin the day before with Mal that night, before I was forced back into my tiny bunk with Tamar. Mal wanted to do as the Darkling wished, if only to save me. I had begged and pleaded, telling him that I would be fine, even when in my heart I knew I wouldn’t. Mal could tell I was lying. So when I’d been escorted to the Darkling’s cabin Mal had been held back by Grisha. He’d fought till he was bloodied and screaming my name. I wanted to run to him, to reach out to him, but all I did was try and force an assuring smile on my face as a few tears rolled down my cheeks. This terror had ahold of me as surely as the nichevo’ya’s teeth had dug into me and had scarcely wanted to let go.
The Darkling wasted no time on talk. The door closed, and then I was shoved up against it. I tried to remember some of Botkin’s lessons, but the Darkling was so much bigger than me. Perhaps if I hadn’t let him get the upper hand so quickly I would have been able to fight, but he had me pinned.
I willed my tears away.
“Good morning, Alina,” the Darkling breathed as he leaned down, lips brushing my neck.
Even as a part of me wanted him—wanted him so badly that I would tear someone apart to get him—I squirmed, trying to move my neck away from his mouth. But his hands were on my body now, gripping my waist tightly, pulling me close.
I whimpered, and raised my arms to try and smack my hands against his chest. He just grabbed my wrists, and pinned them above my head.
He tilted his head, examining me. “I believe we’re both overdressed for the occasion.”
I stood, frozen, as the Darkling stepped back and began to divest himself of his kefta. His eyes were on me the whole time, and I wanted to sink through the wood of the deck, and into the waters of the Bone Road, drowning in the cold. I knew I could summon my light, try to make the Cut, but would Mal pay for my actions? Surely he would. Then there was the question of what would happen should I horribly fail. No, I couldn’t do it.
The Darkling didn’t bother with the rest of his clothes too much, just started undoing the ties on his trousers.
Oh Saints.
He reached out, taking hold of my wrist, leaving me breathless, and he tugged me over to his desk. I trembled as he tore at the skirt of my wool dress, and I worried about what I would have to wear after.
“Hmm… I did like you better in a kefta, but you never did take to my color. What a shame. Black suits you, Sun Summoner.”
“If all you want is my power, you don’t have to do this!”
“Oh, but I do.” He pressed me against the desk, facing away from him. There was an uncomfortable heat in my stomach, and I feared I was going to be sick. The wood pressed sharply against me. He lifted up my torn skirt, and reached for the stockings I had underneath. Leaning against me, he went on, “Because I want you. I have wanted you since I first laid eyes on you in my command tent at Kribirsk. And I nearly had you. Nearly. Now I will.”
He pulled my stockings down, and my skin puckered against the sudden cold, backside and legs revealed to him.
“Stop! Please!”
He put one hand to the back of my neck, over the collar, and bent me forward. I could scarcely breathe. I felt him, pressing up against me. He was hard in his trousers, which was not something I was all that used to, even with the nights I’d lain against Mal. I wasn’t ready yet. I wasn’t entirely sure why, but I wasn’t. And here the Darkling was, more than ready to take what wasn’t his.
He ground down against me, and I let out a discomfited moan. Fear trickled through my blood, like ice and fire battling each other, neither side winning.
“Are you going to scream, Alina? I think it would really encourage the otkazat’sya.”
My bottom lip wobbled, and I bit it. My mouth wanted to open, to let my voice out, to cry for help. But who would help me on this cursed ship? I was a hostage, being pushed over the edge so a dark tyrant could get what he wanted. It was all about him, even if he claimed he cared for me.
Yet I tried to lie to myself, tried to tell myself he did truly care about me as he pulled back slightly, and then was touching me again, only this time he had been freed from his trousers. I swallowed back sick as his hard length pressed up against me. A trembling started in my legs. Saints, he was big. How was he even going to fit?
He rubbed the head of his cock against me, and through my folds, leaving me squirming and whimpering. His breaths were heavy, laced with his voice, which had become rough and low.
I had wanted to hold in my voice, but I squealed as he pressed in just a bit, something tearing. He probably wasn’t even an inch in me, and still the sensation was painful and startling, yet... I could feel my power brimming just beneath the surface, wanting to let loose. It was stronger from his touch, and it wanted me.
“Alina,” he groaned, pushing in just a bit more.
A throaty moan left me, and I tried to relax, tried to take deep breaths. I didn’t know much about this, but I figured being wound up tight would just make it hurt.
Pretend he loves you. Pretend he loves you, I pleaded with myself.
When he pushed in further, I dug my nails into the wood of the desk.
I could feel him shuddering against me, over me. I was completely trapped by the heaviness of his body. His hips began to undulate, cock reaching just a bit deeper into me each time. He leaned over, kissed my neck, kissing the bite from the nichevo’ya. In time I was letting out cries that were timed with his thrusts. I felt like he was going to rip me apart. I was so full and stretched, and yet it didn’t stop.
Would my torment be endless?
With one powerful thrust that left me writhing and screaming, I felt his balls pressing up against me, hot and heavy with his seed. Tears built up in my eyes, and I was too overcome with how wonderful and horrible I felt to try and hold them back. One rolled down my cheek.
“Good, Alina. Good,” the Darkling crooned. “Now I’m going to need you to scream louder. We need your tracker to hear. And perhaps after I’ll show him your maiden’s blood.”
I had no choice but to comply. His hips moved mercilessly, large cock pummeling my insides. I tried to ignore the slapping and squelching sounds and just focused on how the desk shook, even though it had been nailed down to withstand the mercurial waters of the ocean.
Even that was too much. I felt like I was being taken over, like I would never escape this.
Again and again he plunged into me, and I did scream.
I screamed because I wanted more. I screamed because I wanted him to stop.
A fiery sensation was building up in my pelvis and lower abdomen. It was so foreign that I wanted to cry, that I wanted to push him away, and use the Cut to sever his head from his body. Instead he kept pushing, kept going, kept calling my name like a prayer.
The fire in me built and built, condensing into a ball until it couldn’t be held back anymore. The fire burst through me, and I was screaming again. My walls clenched around his driving cock rhythmically, and waves of pleasure rolled through me, leaving me light-headed and woozy. The only thing my legs seemed to know how to do was shake; holding up my body was beyond them.
I was stuck in that fire, that beautiful, searing light for what felt like eternity. The Darkling settled into me up to his balls, taking advantage of the contractions my end had brought about. Throaty moans left him, and his hands squeezed my bottom till it hurt. I clawed at the desk, wanting more, wanting it to end.
When my contractions stopped, and the pleasure ebbed out of me in gentle waves, he began to take me once more, with a power and want that I couldn’t understand.
Part of me wondered how I’d be able to handle this every day. Perhaps I’d just forget it, or become numb to it.
That numbness seemed to seep over me now, even as I hurt, as my hips were driven into the desk, and I was spread wide open for him, and dug into like some prize.
The scream I let out when he came wasn’t one of pleasure, or even pain. It was anger, fury.
How dare he!
Ana Kuya had barely taught me about any of this, but she’d made sure that I knew what this meant, what could happen when a man reached his end inside a woman.
I didn’t want a child!
Did he want to impregnate me? Did he want me to bear that burden so I would have to cling to him, depend on him? Or did he just seek pleasure from the fear and anger now coursing through me?
I tried to fight him for what might have been the millionth time, but it was no use.
The Darkling pulled out of me, and I nearly dropped to the floor. I managed to turn about, raising myself up with shaking limbs. The Darkling was smiling, breathing hard, and I could see the points of his nipples beneath his dark shirt. He breathed a contented sigh, running a hand through his sweat-slicked hair, cheeks all red. His other hand was stuffing his cock back into his trousers.
“That was… wow, Alina.”
“You did all the work,” I spat.
“But maybe I won’t tomorrow.” Now when he let out a sigh it was one of disappointment, and he put himself to rights again. “As much as I’d like to have you all day I have work to do, and we must check on your otkazat’sya.”
My cheeks burned at the mention of Mal. What would he think? Would he not want to be with me anymore? Was I tainted? Would he think that I had wanted it?
I was like a doll as the Darkling did what he could to fix my clothes, but there was nothing that could be done for my ruined skirt. He didn’t seem to mind, but I worried about the cold, whipping salt winds of the ocean that I’d feel above deck.
He took me by the wrist, and I fell into myself, tumbling, and tumbling until I wasn’t sure there was anything left. He presented me to Mal, who still hadn’t found the Rusalye.
The Darkling would have me the next day. Maybe even the day after that. I would have to scream for him, and in my heart darkened by the taint of him, I knew I would.

Connor angst where he makes you not feel worth it
Been awhile since I’ve written for Connor, here you go!
Space | Connor Brashier
Connor’s been extremely busy since he’s come home from tour with Shawn. He’s been almost as busy as he was on tour.
Collabing with David Dobrik. Connecting with Madison and planning future projects. Filming a music video with Kygo. Meetings with Shawn’s team about new music and the docu from tour.
You’ve seen him just about as much as you did while he was on tour. The difference being, you share a home, and he is actually home. Well most of the time. While with David he hopped a flight to Vegas and didn’t tell you until after he had arrived. He’s traveled to Canada for meetings and to see Brian. Never once thinking to invite you.
“I’m busy, what the fuck do you want me to do about it?” He spits, eyes glued to his phone.
You actually wonder if his eyes are still blue, because you can’t remember the last time he looked up from his phone long enough for you to be able to focus on the color. Soon they have to turn into a screen themselves right?
“Take a break? It is a human thing to do.” You mutter, washing up the dinner dishes.
“I don’t need to though. You’re just being fucking needy.”
You look down into the sink, swallowing back the tears trying to escape you. He’s been so moody lately, and you think it’s because he spends all of his time in front of a screen. It has to pent up some energy there, cause mood changes. You just happen to be the constant in his line of fire.
“No response?” He snides, standing up, thumb tapping at his phone rapidly. “Cool.” He rolls his eyes, turning and walking out of the room. You stare after him, shaking your head.
What were you still doing here? He obviously doesn’t seem to want you anymore. You can not pinpoint the last time you remember being in bed together at the same time. Or when he touched you last. He’s constantly telling you that you bother him, and get in his way. Now suddenly you’re ‘fucking needy’ for simply wanting to know if he’d be home this weekend. It wasn’t like you were sticking your plans on him, you literally just wanted to know.
You set the plate you’re holding down, turning the sink off before drying off your hands. You’re over it. At this point you’re more hurt in this relationship than you are happy, so why were you fighting when he isn’t. You’re actually just fighting against him, and you’re tired.
You pass his office, noticing he left the door open for once. What you don’t see is how he leans over to see you from around his monitor screen. His brows furrow when he watches you wipe your cheek.
He listens as you reach into the closet and pull your luggage out. He goes back to what he was editing, that is until you walk past again, this time pulling your suitcase behind you.
His heart stops, and suddenly he can’t remember what you said to him during dinner. He can’t remember how he responded. So he gets up, walking into the hallway as you head to the bedroom.
“What are you doing?” He asks harshly, stalking after you.
You don’t respond, you just lug the suitcase up onto your once shared bed. He appears in the doorway when you flip the top up and open. He crosses his arms and leans against the doorframe.
“Are you going on a trip?” He asks, voice so detached almost as if he’s annoyed.
You ignore him, and the sharp pain ripping through your chest as you think about no longer being with him. You turn and open your drawer, pulling out all your panties and bras. You dump them into the bag and turn back for your next drawer.
“Gonna be gone long enough to need all of those?” He snickers, walking forward and sitting on the bed next to your bag.
You turn back, and almost stop at how close he is, but continue with all your camisoles and sports bras in hand. You settle them in the bag and make sure there’s room for your shirts and pants, as long as you have the things you need for work this week you can then have the time to figure out how to come back to get the rest of them.
His face scrunches as he watches you grab every shirt from your shirt drawer, leaving it empty as you hip check it closed. It all starts to click in his brain when you reach for your jeans.
“Hey,” He says, looking down into your bag and then back up at your heartbroken face. “What’s happening?” He says quickly, reaching for your hands. “What happened? Is everyone okay?”
It hurts you even more that he thinks you’re packing because someone’s hurt and needs you. Not that you’re hurt and don’t need him anymore.
You still won’t speak to him as you throw a few pairs of shoes into the bag, turning for a few books.
“Babe, what’s happening? Talk to me.” He stands, panicking a little. Watching you reach for your books tells him something is seriously wrong. “Where do we need to go? Your Moms? Grandpa?” He flounders, opening his closet and pulling a bag out as well.
“No Connor,” You croak. Stopping him in his tracks. “You don’t need to go anywhere, I do.”
“I can’t come?” He asks, stare going hard.
“No.”
“Care to explain why?” He sets his hands on his hips.
“Because I’m leaving.”
“You’re leaving?”
“I’m leaving you.” You look up at him from under your lashes, scared of his reaction.
“What?” He breathes out, voice so low that if you weren’t so accustomed to everything about him you probably wouldn’t have heard it.
“I can’t do it anymore.”
“What do you mean?”
“You’re unhappy.”
“Who said that?” He raises his voice, hands going to his hair. You flinch at the movement and turn to keep grabbing things, like your phone charger.
“You did.”
“No I didn’t.”
“You did Connor, earlier when you called me fucking needy. Yesterday when you told me I was bothering you. Last week when I was ‘in the way’ while you were setting up to edit. When you stopped coming to bed. When you started traveling and saw what your life could be. What your life should be. When you realized that I hold you back from what you want.”
“That’s not fucking true, you’re what I want.”
“No Connor I’m not. And you’ve made that blatantly clear. So just give me a few minutes to get some essentials and I’ll be out of your way for awhile. And the next time you go out of town, probably this weekend, I’ll come back and get the rest of my things and you’ll have what you want. You just have to give me a little time to pack up my life.”
His eyes are watering with tears, heart breaking at the fact that he actually made feel like he doesn’t want you.
“No, I don’t want that. I want your life, here, with me. Please, don’t do this.”
“You’ll be okay,” You sniffle, turning and jumping at how close he is now. Practically chest to chest. “Me? I’ll learn to be okay, I love you Connor. And if I don’t make you happy anymore then I love you enough to let you go so you can be.”
“Stop, please.” He sobs, “I don’t want that. I want you, you make me so happy. I’m living the best life I could because I have you. I didn’t mean any of those things. I’ve been stressed out, and so overworked. I don’t even remember saying those things. Please let me make it better.”
Your shoulders slump as you look at him. He’s crying in a way you’ve never seen before. You’ve been together for years, tears in front of each other have occurred. Usually for him it’s one of two cries. Hold me I’m sad, or, I’m not crying that’s dust in my eye. This though, this is a desperate cry. It’s like he can’t wrap his mind around what’s happening. He’s sobbing, can’t catch his breath as he babbles on and on.
“I love you, I love you so much. Please, please don’t do this.”
“Connor,” You coo, bringing a hand to his chest to get him to sit. He wraps his arms around your waist, never wanting to let go. “You need to calm down.”
“I can’t, I mean you’re leaving me.” He hiccups, rubbing his face on your stomach, leaving tears stains on the fabric of your shirt.
“I think we need a break.”
“No.” He whips his head up. “We promised to never do that, we promised.” He whines.
“We were different when we promised that.”
“How? How were we different?”
“We were in love then.”
His whole world crumbles around his, you watch every muscle in his face frown. “We’re not in love?” He wails.
“I love you Connor, and I know you love me. But we’re not the same couple we used to be. We don’t try anymore. If you can count this as a hug then I think this is the 2nd time you’ve hugged me since you’ve come home. We don’t try and fight for the other any more. We don’t try to flirt or really show our love because we’ve become reliant on the fact that we do love each other. While what we need is to show the other we care. I’ve failed too, it’s on the both of us. So let’s take some time, give some distance and see if we can find that couple again.”
“I don’t want you to leave, I’ll stay in the guest room if you want space. Just don’t leave.”
“No Connor, we need more space than that.”
“Please, I’ll make it better just don’t leave.”
“I’ll call you in the morning, before I leave for work.” You sigh, prying his hands off and reaching for your suitcase. After getting it zipped up and back on the ground you feel his hand wrap around your wrist.
“Let me take you out tomorrow. A date, like we used to. Let me make you fall in love with me again.” He pleads.
“Okay,” You smile, nodding at him.
He hesitates, but leans closer. “Can I kiss you?” He whispers.
You contemplate it, but in the end know you need him too. So you nod and hold back your own cry when his lips touch yours. It’s a kiss you haven’t had in awhile. It’s soft, and slow. Needy and desperate, but all the love you haven’t felt in so long.
You haven’t even left yet, but the space is working. You know you’ll be back in this room soon enough. This time with your lover with you.

Could you please do a poly boys x reader they finding out she's bisexual? Thnks!
As a bisexual, I love this request. Here you go! I hope you like it!!
Poly!Lost Boys x Fem!Bisexual S/O
You never officially came out to the boys. It was the 80s, and bisexuality wasn’t exactly understood just yet. It wasn’t that you didn’t think they’d be understanding, you understood that they were vampires, it just wasn’t something you thought really mattered. You had four totally hot boyfriends, and that was good enough for you
However, one day, a really hot girl in a bikini top walked by and the boys caught you staring at her tits. Like obviously staring. Like you pulled a Paul and turned to watch her as she walked past
David cleared his throat to get your attention, and you just went, “Huh?” and the boys just gave you some questioning looks. Okay, time to come clean.
You explained to them back at the cave that you were bisexual, what that was and what it meant for you. Again, it was the 80s, so you’d only had like one girlfriend before and it hadn’t lasted longer than a week because she was too scared of her parents finding out. You’d had some makeouts, a few flings, but nothing super serious with another girl.
At first, none of them really knew what to say. They just kind of looked at you or at eachother as they tried to process the information. Finally, Paul graced you with a simple “Hot.” And the nervousness you didn’t even realize you’d felt before washed away
None of them really cared if you liked girls or not, and, in fact, it just gave you something else to talk about
Marko was particularly interested in figuring out what your type of girl was, and he’d point out random girls to see how you’d react. After awhile, he had a pretty good idea of what your type was, and then he’d specifically point out those types of girls out to you. When you’d smile and nod appreciatively, he’d feel slightly accomplished. You two would check out girls together, and just say, “Nice” to eachother whenever a particularly hot girl would walk by. When you two got drunk, you’d ramble about your celebrity crushes to him and play pass or smash (all girls edition). He’d jokingly encourage you to go talk to girls on the boardwalk, and, finally, after one too many goadings, you did.
The boys watched in amazement as you scored her number, and they were all far too impressed. When they asked if you were actually going to call her, you rolled your eyes and tossed the number away. No way. It made them all secretly happy, especially David.
David had been the only one of them that had even the slightest issue with it. It wasn’t that he was homophobic, he just didn’t like the idea of having even more potential competition. You were hot, that’s why they’d chosen you, and he didn’t like the idea of one of your female friends making any moves on you on one of your girls nights out. You assured him that none of your friends were your type, and that you loved them. It had been the first time you’d ever said that to them, and David didn’t have a single issue with it after that. Eventually, he’d get comfortable enough with it to join you and Marko in watching hot girls walk by.
Eventually, this just became a group thing. They always assured you afterwards that you were way hotter.
Dwayne treated you like normal. He didn’t really even treat it as if it was a big deal, and just accepted it as another aspect of who you were. He was the one who was most interested in what it was like to be attracted to multiple genders, and more so just wanted to hear about what it had been like figuring it out. He subtly asked if you’d ever had any bad experiences when it came to coming out, and you’d let a few names slip of assholes from highschool or ex-friends. You were not surprised when they ended up on a missing poster, but you gave all your boys a glare anyways.
Paul was the most excited about it, and he was the most willing to let you “explore your sexuality”. Really, he just wanted to watch you makeout with hot girls. He didn’t even try to hide the fact that he thought it was hot, and you weren’t surprised when he asked for a threesome. You’d rolled your eyes and walked away, knowing there was no point in trying to argue with him. He quickly said, “Is that a yes?” And followed you around the cave. To get him to stop pestering you, you told him the only threesome he’d be apart of was watching from the sidelines while two of the others got lucky. Paul had gone quiet for a moment, and then said, “I mean, I could definitely be into that.” Which had earned him a pillow to the face.
Eventually, this lead to a more serious discussion about whether or not you wanted to explore your sexuality. You were polyamorous, but you were the only girl. The boys had agreed to be okay with it (even David) as long as they stayed your primary partners. While you thought the gesture was sweet, you assured them that they were more than enough for you. You’d laid in a big cuddle pile on the couch after that, and spent the rest of the night watching movies.
After you came out, they were a bit more hypersensitive to how people treated the LGBT, and they restricted their own use of slurs (if they even used them at all). Lets just say that a lot more of their meals became known homophobes.

OUT OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO IS PINNING FOR DWIGHT ITS ACE WHO HE CHOOSES AND THE OTHERS ARE LIKE ????? WHERE DID HE COME FROM ????? ace is actually really romantic and soft and cares very deeply for dwight and it took him awhile to show that yes he is serious and no he's not gonna use him and leave
I’M SORRY IF THIS WASN’T MEANT AS A REQUEST the idea just popped into my head and i had to write it! yes i have a soft spot for this ship leave me alone ;w; also i cried at “ace is actually really romantic and soft” like you can’t just sAy thAT to me and expect me to function properly hnsdsfdhfdg ;A; no warnings for this one, only a little crack and ooc!
word count: 2000
Ace X Dwight (/X p much everyone): Never reveal your winning hand
“—fock off with that shit! He’s stayin’ with me!” David yells.
“I should share with him, I’m his best friend!” Jake counters.
“Ya just wanna get in ‘is pants!” David accuses.
“Oh, as opposed to you, huh?” Quentin butts in, crossing his arms and glaring defiantly at the Englishman.
Ace leans further back against the log and watches the spectacle unfold with a lazy smirk.
The Entity had recently gifted them tents to sleep in, only there weren’t enough for everyone and some would have to share. The girls had been able to decide their sleeping arrangements easily, but David’s temper had sparked an argument among the boys and now all of the men were sent into the woods until they could come up with a solution—‘Peacefully,’ Claudette had insisted, shooting a pointed look David’s way.
Which was proving much harder than anyone would have anticipated, since it turned out nearly everyone wanted to share with Dwight, and wasn’t afraid of voicing it since their leader was currently stuck in a trial and oblivious to the argument going on.
Bill had left only minutes into the discussion, angrily claiming he’d rather sleep on the ground than listen to them for another second, followed by Tapp and Ash who had watched the scene with varying levels of disbelief before silently agreeing to share with each other.
Ace already knows how this will turn out, but it’s just funny to watch the others fight over Dwight.
“Since when ‘ave you lot even fancied ‘im?” David glares. “And you—ya barely just got ’ere!” he stops to address Felix in an accusation.
“And that means I probably have a better chance than any of you,” Felix explains calmly. “I’d actually make a move and not just pine for four years.”
“Hey!” Jake protests.
“Alright, what reason the rest of ya got?” David demands, regarding the group skeptically.
“I just wanna make sure he’s not perved on by someone else!” Quentin argues.
“No, you want to white knight for him!” Jake counters.
“Shut up Jake, now what about the rest?” David interrupts.
“I’d just really like to spend some time with him to get to know him better,” Adam explains.
“Me too,” Jeff says. “I haven’t had a proper chance to ask him if he’d be interested.”
David nods in acknowledgement, before his eyes meet Ace’s and he can’t quite suppress the disgusted sneer upon imagining Dwight ending up sharing a sleeping space with him.
“I just think he’s cute,” Ace says with a smile, giving a one-shoulder shrug.
“Look, why is Ace even here?” Jake sighs in annoyance. “Nobody would touch him with a ten-foot pole, least of all Dwight.”
“Maybe we should just ask Dwight who he wants to share with?” Steve suggests, cocking his head in thought.
“NO!” a chorus of protests interrupt him and the well-intentioned teen offers an apologetic grin.
“Look, we all know I’m ‘is type—” David starts, puffing up his chest, highlighting his generously open neckline that shows off his build.
“You don’t know shit,” Jake argues. “He sure as hell wouldn’t go for a dumb meathead like you!”
“Mate, you watch your mouth—” David starts.
“There you are!” a familiar voice interrupts the argument and both David and Jake freeze, turning their heads to look at Dwight making his way over to the group. “What’s going on? Bill said I should come sort something out?”
“Uhh…”
Ace rolls his eyes. At first, everyone was shouting over each other, and now, face to face with the object of their affection, are rendered speechless like a couple of schoolboys.
“Err, did you see the tents?” Steve starts, taking the initiative to explain when nobody else is making a move to do so.
“Oh! Yeah, they’re pretty neat, huh?” Dwight says with a small smile.
“Y-yeah,” Steve stammers and blushes a little, Dwight’s cuteness apparently making his words leave him, so Jeff takes over.
“There’s not enough for everyone, so we were just trying to figure out the sleeping arrangements,” Jeff explains. “Do you… um, do you have a preference…?”
Ace can feel everyone holding their breaths as Dwight blinks a couple times in confusion, before a flush spreads over his face.
“Oh, uh, don’t worry about me,” Dwight says, nervously wringing his hands together, before finally meeting Ace’s gaze. “I already know who I’m sharing with.”
Ace swears he hears jaws drop to the floor as Dwight makes his way over and sits down next to him, making himself comfortable against Ace like he’s done countless times before, only this time they have an audience.
“Welcome back, cariño,” Ace murmurs warmly, wrapping an arm around his boyfriend’s shoulders. “How was your trial?”
“It was okay,” Dwight says, looking up at him with a happy smile. “Could have used some of your crazy luck, though. I missed you.”
And then the boy dares to place a peck on his cheek in their first gesture of PDA, and Ace doesn’t even bother trying to hide his smug grin from the others.
“You could have told us,” Adam scolds him, huffing in annoyance but otherwise seeming to have collected himself.
“What?” Dwight pipes up, a frown on his handsome face and oblivious to Ace taking his silent victory over the others. “What do you mean?”
“N-no, not you…” Adam stammers, averting his eyes.
“Fucking figures,” Quentin scoffs in disgust, meeting Ace’s eyes and not bothering to mask his hostility.
“Is there a problem?” Dwight is suddenly raising his voice, wrapping his arms around Ace almost protectively, looking at the others defiantly as if daring someone to protest.
Ace finds the display unbelievably adorable, his normally meek boyfriend coming out of his shell to defend his honor. He places a kiss into Dwight’s hairline to soothe some of his nerves but not ready to defuse just yet, a twisted part of him wanting to see how the others react to their leader’s possessive behavior.
“Not at all,” Jeff says, trying and failing to hide the surprise on his face. “We just had no idea you were… involved.”
“We’re not ‘involved’, we’re dating. He’s my boyfriend,” Dwight is quick to remove any doubts, scowling at the others as intimidatingly as anyone with his baby face and doe-like brown eyes is capable of.
“Well, I suppose that’s the end of that discussion,” Felix comments, not seeming terribly phased to learn that Dwight is taken.
“Yeah, uh… congrats!” Steve laughs nervously and gives them an awkward thumbs-up.
“You’d better take care of him,” Jake glares at Ace like he’s the scum of the Earth, and Ace is fluent enough in Jake-talk to know that’s the closest thing he’ll get to having the saboteur’s blessing.
Ace raises a challenging eyebrow in response and Jake grits his teeth to no doubt suppress a snarky comment that he knows Dwight wouldn’t appreciate hearing, and Ace smirks over the moral victory and focuses his attention on David instead.
And promptly has to suppress a laugh over the brawler’s reaction. David is staring at them, or well, mostly at Ace. He looks completely gobsmacked, looking Ace up and down before looking down at his own, naked and well-defined chest, confused beyond what his fighting-filled brain can handle.
“Something on your mind, King?” Ace asks cockily, knowing full well the scrapper is most likely trying to figure out why Dwight would choose someone like Ace over a prime specimen like himself.
“How the fuck,” David merely mutters but, thankfully, isn’t picking a fight. Dwight still tenses in Ace’s arms and Ace’s grip tightens around him in an attempt to soothe him.
“Shh, it’s fine,” Ace murmurs into his lover’s soft hair, and that’s enough to reassure Dwight, the man relaxing into the embrace.
“So, guess we’re sharing with each other!” Steve exclaims, breaking some of the tension over the group. “Who’s going with who?”
“I’ll come with you,” Quentin says, still sounding a little pissed off but not about to cuss anyone out again, at least. “Unless someone has any more confessions to spring on us,” he snarks.
“Works for me,” Steve beams, nothing seeming to ruin his good mood.
Ace hears Felix mutter something about how he “Might as well go with Bill”, but then he sees David approaching Jake and instantly focuses on that instead.
“So, Jake…” David starts, cocky attitude back in place as he approaches the sulking saboteur with his shirt fluttering open—what the hell, did he pop even more of the buttons?
“What,” Jake spits, the challenging glare never leaving his face, and Ace almost prepares for a fight to break out.
“Wanna share?” David asks instead, not bothering to hide the way his gaze roams over Jake’s body. Ace chokes on a disbelieving laugh and from the way Dwight’s eyes nearly bulge out of his head, he’s not imagining the sudden sexual tension between the two frenemies.
He sees the wariness in Jake’s expression, and the way his eyes very obviously linger on David’s now exposed chest.
“Fine,” Jake says, but it lacks any real heat, at least of the ‘I’m-five-seconds-away-from-punching-you’ kind, and David grins and seems way too pleased with himself.
Well, there goes everyone’s undisturbed sleep for tonight.
Finally having sorted out their sleeping arrangements, with Adam and Jeff being the unlucky ones left but not seeming to mind being stuck together, the others take their leave to go set up the tents.
Ace is finally able to wipe the smirk off his face in favor of a softer smile that’s solely reserved for Dwight, turning his head around to face his boyfriend and about to start explaining the strange behavior from the others, when…
“Had enough of your gloating?” Dwight deadpans, taking Ace completely off guard and making him gape a little stupidly. “I’m not dumb, I saw what you were doing.”
Ace offers a nervous chuckle while trying to collect himself. He should have known by now Dwight is not nearly as naïve as he seems, and that he’d easily pick up on what was really happening.
“I’m sorry, amor,” Ace says, wincing from embarrassment over his childish actions. “I did want to show you off, especially after hiding for so long. And I also really wanted to watch Jake eat his words,” he confesses, clasping Dwight’s hand and bringing it up to brush his lips against the knuckles. “Forgive me?”
Dwight’s frown immediately melts into a dopey smile, and Ace barely has the time to blink in confusion over the kid’s perfect poker face before Dwight’s lips are meeting his in a reassuring kiss.
“Of course, you dummy,” Dwight beams at him, placing one last quick peck on his lips. “I’m just… really happy you think I’m even worth showing off.”
“No no no, sweetheart, we’ve talked about this,” Ace returns the smile, carding a hand through Dwight’s hair in encouragement, his boyfriend immediately leaning into the touch. “You’re not allowed to talk about yourself that way. Because…?”
“Because I’m…” Dwight starts, a flush creeping up his neck. “’Gorgeous’ and ‘perfect’,” he says, doing air quotes.
“Uh-huh,” Ace’s smile widens even further as he takes Dwight’s hands in his own to stop the self-conscious gesture. “And?”
“S…” Dwight flounders as his face reddens even further and he averts his eyes. “S-‘sexy’.”
“Damn right you are,” Ace purrs, releasing his gentle hold on Dwight’s hands to wrap around his waist instead. “I’ve got good taste.”
As if 75% of the male survivor population thirsting after his adorable boyfriend wasn’t proof enough.
“You’re ridiculous,” Dwight huffs, embarrassment giving way to a fond smile.
“You love it,” Ace counters, placing a playful peck on Dwight’s nose.
“I love you,” Dwight corrects, chasing his lips and going in for a passionate kiss that has Ace’s breath hitching in his throat and his heart hammering in his chest.
And damn, if the others knew exactly what they were missing when it comes to Dwight Fairfield, Ace would be in a lot of trouble.
