to the anon that thought it was a bright idea to make a painfully shitty day even fucking worse by coming into my inbox to tell me chuck taylor been have a girlfriend; i wish you a merry fuck you.
let me be extremely clear: i do not care that he has a girlfriend. that’s amazing for them. everything i been saying on here is purely for shits and giggles. what bothered me is the rude and downright nasty way they conducted theyself. it does not matter what the situation is, i won’t tolerate that shit on my page

So I have no idea if I’ll keep this post up, but…
A little rant abt re8?? (And cod.. kinda) maybe venting (just a mess :,)
Disclaimer, take my opinions with a grain of salt I just wanna ramble lmao
Also spoilers, maybe (update, definitely)
So I’ve been having fun dipping my toes into Donna Beneviento (god her last name is hard to spell) content. After watching the gameplays and to at least have a basic understanding for the game, I find myself really drawn to her, maybe more than Alcina tbh
By no means i’m a diehard fan or anything, recently it’s been hard to find a new fandom to get attached towards. As much as I adore cod, there isnt really much to get attached too… like sure, task 141 is a fun group and the there is some GREAT art about the ships- but I only got attached because of Valeria, I won’t deny it at all. I’m a diehard lesbian, but there isn’t really much cannon content of her?? It’s really damn disappointing sometimes, man… same with Laswell. I appreciate all of the fanartists out there though, I adore all of the content here, fanfics or fan art. With Farah, she’s a diffrent story.. personally I never really got attached to her, but as a character she’s pretty neat. Her story sort of brings to light the horrors happening today which is a bit of a benefit…?? But ever since I found out things about both Valeria’s and Farah’s actors I’ve been a little off about things here and there. I don’t think I’ll stop posting Valeria content at all, it just might be a little less offen to indulge in different things.
Some personal things have been happening to make me feel really disconnected from like.. fucking everything for some reason?? Like I’m drifting away from fandoms, I’m drifting away from people and I’m like alone again.. I’m lost in a damn dumpster fire. AI art doesn’t help with this at all.. like why do I draw?? I’ve been drawing since I was in kindergarten like I never really thought of the specifics of perusing art, more or so just that I want to. Like hey, I wanna make a game or movie series, and something in me doesn’t realize I need to put in the effort to learn shit with just ends up in me doing nothing but self pitting on something I can change and ugh.. wish I can slap myself to get out of it.
So I think I’ve been kind of finding myself relating to Donna. Not in her extreme way, more or so just her aspect of being isolated, and just being known primarily for one thing. Like.. our side of art? Damn. Shit. I think I’m worth nothing.. and with Donna we don’t really know much about her besides her being a cursed Dollmaker, and the bare bones of her past. And we both barely fucking speak man… both hide our faces too !! maybe I kin this woman or something I don’t know
But as I was looking through her tumblr tag, I saw a rant about how headcannons and stuff has been stripping away the interesting stuff about the re8 villains… and with the things I’ve seen so far?? I can kinda agree, honestly.
Don’t get me wrong, if it’s not too.. insane? (I know those boundaries are hard to define at times, but maybe REALLY immoral shit for our “normal” world) and people aren’t forcing these headcannons into other people? I don’t mind headcannons. You do you, boo!
But the fan content I’ve seen, people reduce Donna and Alcina (I’m surprised it was pronounced as AlCHIna and not AlSIna, but side tangent over) from the potential they really have. Yeah it’s definitely nice to see Donna more, especially in those intimate moments.. but sometimes I feel like people just depict her as some shy, easily gullible, girl, and not really the mentally deprived woman she is. Like I’d love to see ideas of the different dolls Donna could create, or unique imagery of her mental state outside of having porcelain skin. What about the kinds of plants she takes care of? Or the dolls she makes? I’d love to see more of it, whether she has favorites, or if it’s a situation where she has doll replicas of her deceased family. Man, I really wanna see Donna do more creepy shit, basically.
With Alcina however? She’s kind of reduced to that (I’m going to cringe at these words so terribly, god help me) “hot vampire mommy”.. I’ll take fault for not looking into her content as much, I’m sure there’s great content out there !! (I’m not sure if anyone would do this but.. feel free to send me any fic recommendations or art) With what I want to see for her? I’ve heard from the rant post as a man-hating woman she had primarily female statues in her castle, it would be fun to see what else she has cause of this worldview, as well as more whitty remarks from her; I really enjoy her throwback with Heisenberg. Just in general.. her being a comical villain.
Okay so, the reason why I made this post in the first place before all of this shit threw up from my brain. Belladonna. At first, this ship really interested me, I like the character dynamics, the art was neat. But then something came up in my mind.. (as well as another rant post on the ship..) isn’t the Dimitrescu bloodline related with Donna? Both are failed experiments from Mother Miranda, and technically adopted by her. Though from what I know, Donna is the only one officially adopted. So would that be family..? I’ve seen a few places where Alcina called Donna her sister, and it makes me feel really off.
And I’ve seen in a few fanarts, Donna technically older than the Dimitrescu sisters posed next to them like another sibling??
I would like to endorse the ship, but just the morality of everything is off centered for me. I rather not support weird incest…
So please if people could maybe clarify for me whether it would technically be okay for support this ship.. I’d appreciate it. If it isn’t okay, I have plans on making a fan character anyways, or I can take current characters and make a resident evil au or something, and ship them when Donna. (I have a character that honestly looks like a mix of Alcina and Bela, but by no means she’s relates to the franchise, lmao)
By no means I’m experienced in resident evil lore or the fandom, this is just coming from a newer fan of the series, and what I’ve seen so far.
If you read all of this.. thank you?? I apologize if I sound ridiculous here, this is like the only place I can rant abt things without being brushed off for other shit
Good night now!!! I need to stop pushing my sleep boundaries ugh

Ok I have to vent about this to someone.
At the end of tsh, yk when Henry kinda offed himself, am I the only one who thinks that he wanted Camilla to die with him?
Like, why would he bring the girl he loves in the danger zone? Like right beside him.
And it’s like, Camilla could feel something was up, and, I will never forget this, he said to her, when she hesitated to coming to his side in front of the window in the hotel room, ,“do you really think I would hurt you?“ and I thought, THAT is EXACTLY what someone would have to say to me to make me do things I don’t actually want to because I wouldn’t want to hurt their feelings.
And Henry, in Camilla’s eyes at least, “saved“ her from her abusive brother yk? Like gave her a place to stay, comforted her and ,obviously, it is insinuated that she and Henry already had something of a secret relationship going on before she ran away from Charles.
So , not wanting to hurt his feelings, even though she is not comfortable to go near him, and is hesitant in doing so, she does because he makes her feel stupid and insecure in asking for her trust in THAT way.
“You really think I would hurt you? After all that I have done for you? I saved you from your brother. I comforted you when you felt scared and hopeless of ever escaping him. You know I love you, right? How could you ever doubt that,after everything I did and became for you?“
And so, even though she at first didn’t want to, she goes to him.
AND THEN.
WHEN HE OFFED HIMSELF.
He fired two times.
TWO.
And we obviously know it was in Camilla’s direction because he was holding her at her waist in one hand, and the gun to his head in the other.
He shot in Camilla’s direction.
Why would someone who is in love with a person, get that person in a position right next to to them , with a gun pointed through their head at them, and then shoot themselves, two times?
As if to make sure that, if the first bullet didn’t go through, the second one did.
Which it obviously didn’t, but the attempt was made.
Henry‘s Obsession with her was so great that he wanted to make sure that she could never be with any other person ever.
And obviously the way he manipulated Camilla was actually enough because years after his death, when Richard asked her to marry him, she say‘s that she still loves Henry.
Not loved.
Loves.
It’s an ongoing feeling that never stopped and probably never will.
And when I came to this realization I was devastated because I realized that not only everyone in the book was charmed and manipulated by Henry, us reader were too.
And while I already knew this, it just became so much more apparent how deep this manipulation actually was.
The justification of everything Henry ever did.
How he killed that man.
how he poisoned and killed his neighbors dog.
how he instigated and planned bunny’s death in more ways than one.
how he pushed Charles‘s alcoholism even while he was at the hospital and shouldn’t be drinking even a drop of it,only to top it off in giving him pills that he knew were deadly if mixed with alcohol in an attempt to kill him.
Charles and bunny both had a feeling about what Henry was planning to do to them.
Bunny expressed it in his letter to Julien, and Charles to Richard and Francis.
Just needed to get this off of my chest for a sec.
Love Donna Tartt, but I do not want to know the way her mind works.🫶🏻
#the secret history#tsh donna tartt#henry winter#camilla macaulay#charles macaulay#Not even sure this makes much sense but had to vent somewhere#ths#somehow I’m still not less attracted to Henry winter even WITH this new thought#richard papen

God. I really wanted to like this new run of Titans, but the way it’s going so far…
Donna Troy I’m so sorry they would do this to you.
#titans#dc comics#I mean I really wanted to like it#teen titans are my favorite superhero book of all time#I was so excited they were getting away from Tom Taylor#but this new one so far is not promising#the most out of character Donna Troy I’ve ever seen#it feels like the only thing the writer ever read from titans was the Tom Taylor run#which was bad#like objectively it was terrible writing#I’m sorry but Donna and dick would not act this way over being titans leader#that’s not their relationship#and Donna’s been leader of the titans before#why are they acting like that’s never happened#Donna’s never had any sort of inferiority complex about dick or ever felt like she had to prove herself Tim#or other titans for that matter#that’s Roy’s thing#it just comes across as super sexist and a disservice to her character#I’m 99% convinced the writer hasn’t read anything outside of the Taylor run#there’s no way to get Donna this wrong#also justice for Kori#waiting for the day we’ll see her again#with writers that don’t hate her#or just assume she acts like the tt cartoon version#yeah I really just needed to vent#at least the new Nightwing run seems pretty good so far#actual characterization and stakes and conflict#and you know���emotion#Nightwing#Donna Troy

It's a constant inner fight between yearning for connection and attention, and wanting to distance myself from everything and everyone

Yknow, i think I just tend to feel super uncaring and passive towards characters are put on a pedestal by the fandom, and then eventually it starts to turn to actively dislike them
Which is why I now feel "meh" towards Donna and the tenth doctor on a good day, and feel annoyed by their existence on a bad day
#logically i know theyre good characters and i enjoyed their episodes#but i have zero desire to watch them these days#nor do i really care about the specials anymore#Donna is more beloved than even Rose#and the whole 'shes the best bc she isnt in love with the doctor' thing annoys me#sometimesss i can drag myself towards liking ten again#its always a little suprising when it happens#vent maybe ?#just saying my feelings#im tired

i have questions tho
#like with the irritability and aggression symptoms. does it count if i have those but i also have extremely tightly held self control#like yes i used to feel like this all the time throughout high school and that was the fucking worst but i've figured out coping mechanisms#i would not have survived this long if i had not been able to crawl my way out of my five anxiety attacks a week era#sophomore year! was! hard!#but now that i'm uncovering shit that happened when i was a kid and all the shit i have boxed away my entire life#when i wrote about ladybug having well developed compartmentalization that post was about me#i literally put things in boxes in my head. i separate myself from the emotional effect of things so that i can be as fair and#logical as i possibly can be. like yes i've had nightmares since i was a kid. yes i've had depressive symptoms since i was seven.#yes that's when one of my major traumas occurred. why have i never connected these dots#they literally sent me to GRIEF COUNSELING bc they thought my sudden behavioral change was a delayed reaction to my parents' divorce#vent cw#mental illness cw#i just need to talk this out#when i get to donna's office on 3pm thursday we will be so back#mer rambles

g'day! I hope you're doing well. Love your writing.
May I request a gp Donna and reader with a teen daughter who's giving them typical teenager problems like sneaking out, partying and such? Reader is scolding her but the daughter talks back and yells at her, and Donna is not having any of that and has a no one disrespect my wife moment. Reader gets turn on by it and they end up making love a little too loud to Angie's and their daughter's horror, whom apologies to reader afterwards.
Hope that wasn't too long! Thanks.
Yesss!!!! Thank you for your kindness, and for your request, and no, it's not long at all, don't worry ;) I hope you like it and sorry about the language mistakes!!!! :)))))
A rebel daughter
Pairing: Donna Beneviento x Fem! Reader
Warnings: G!P Donna, smut, Minors DNI, family fluff...
Word count: 7,529
Summary: Young Beneviento it's just like you as a teenager, and that's a problem...
N/A: Sorry about the language mistakes!!! Requests are open!!! I'm waiting yours!!! I love you all!!! :))
“Damn it,” you cursed as you walked nervously through the house, glancing at the clock in the hall often. “This is unbelievable, Donna, what…?”
When you went to the old couch to ask for advice, or to vent to the lady in black, you found a scene that, under other circumstances, could be funny. The doll maker was lying on the couch, but she wasn't exactly conscious; her breathing was deep and her one eye was closed.
You growled, clenching your fists and walking towards her, clapping your hands.
“Donna!” you said in a brusque tone, scaring the lady, who opened her eye and sat up confused.
“Ugh… Lasciami dormire,” she growled uncomfortable at the noise, but her protests didn't matter as you approached and shook her shoulders hastily.
“Sleep? How can you sleep in this situation?” you asked nervously, holding back the Lord’s grumbling grunts for a bit.
“What? What's wrong?” she asked, waving her arms for you to give her some room. “(Y/N), tesoro, let's go to bed…”
“Have you seen what time it is?” you asked again, blinking nervously and pointing at the clock. “It's 2 in the morning, Donna, and Stella isn't here.”
“Mm, okay…” the lady whispered in a sleepy voice.
“Okay?” you asked mockingly, watching as sleep devoured the brunette again. “Look, the mother of the year… Hey, hey, Donna.”
“(Y/N)…” the woman protested again, frowning.
“I told her to come home at 10, at 10! And she still hasn't come back,” you said impatiently, letting yourself fall on the couch. “This girl is going to kill me.”
“Leave her alone, she must be with her friends,” Donna commented, yawning again.
“You're always so worried, aren't you?” you said, crossing your arms. “What if something happened to her?”
“Nothing happened to her,” the lady corrected, rubbing her eye. “She's not a child. She knows how to take care of herself.”
“Sorry, honey, but I think she's actually a child, she's 15 years old,” you said, laughing ironically and nervously. “Besides, even if you're right, she's disobeyed me again.”
“Maybe you're too hard on her, she's a teenager, and she does teenage stuff,” the lady said, shaking her head. “You know she loves to contradict you.”
“Forgive me for trying to educate my daughter,” you said frowning. “Your daughter.”
“Stella will arrive any minute, stop worrying,” she said, getting closer to kiss your shoulder comfortingly.
“It's easy for you to say it,” you whispered, calmer due to her kisses, sighing and looking at the clock out of the corner of your eye. “Donna, I can't help but think about what I was like when I was her age and… Well, the, the consequences…”
“Mm?” Donna murmured confused. “What do you mean?”
“Um, well… remember that I… well… Stella was born precisely because I was careless and…”
“You weren't 15 years old,” she said, upset by the comment.
Of course it was a hurtful comment. No matter how much time passed, Donna would never understand the fact that you were very young, too young to be a mother. You weren't ready.
“I know, but…” you sighed, shaking your head. “Damn, she does this just to annoy me. I don't even know where she went, do you know anything? At least she talks to you.”
“Me? No, I don't know where she went,” Donna said, pointing at herself and smiling after a few moments. “But… well, I can think of a way to wait,” she whispered seductively, starting to kiss your neck.
You opened your eyes wide, and although the proposal seemed tempting, you rejected the woman in black with a gentle push.
“How can you think about doing that now?” you asked offended, earning another growl from Lady Beneviento, who crossed her arms with a snort. “Our daughter is missing and…” you said, looking around and fixing your gaze on a small figure that moved slowly so as not to attract attention. “Angie!”
“I’m not here!” the living doll shrieked, fleeing from your call.
“Come here!” you shrieked back, pointing at the floor authoritatively.
“What do you want, silly?” Angie asked, approaching little by little, but keeping her distance. “This is not the time to yell.”
“Yeah, well, nice try, but it won’t help,” you said triumphantly, grabbing one of her wooden arms. “Angie, my dear Angie… You don’t know where Stella is, do you?”
“Even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you, let her be,” the puppet protested, breaking free from your grip mockingly and running to her owner’s side.
“Angie, do you know where she is?” Donna asked, with a calmer, softer tone. “Come on, talk.”
“W-Well, maybe…” Angie murmured thoughtfully, but before she could say anything interesting, the discreet creaking of the door distracted you, making both of you turn your heads towards the entrance.
“Finally,” you said relieved, straightening your dress and walking slowly, controlling your anger. “Hey!” you shouted when you saw your daughter walking subtly, ready to go up the stairs. “Stella Beneviento! Come here, now!” you shrieked, stamping the floor impatiently.
The young woman walked slowly with a face of having been caught, lowering her head, trying not to look you in the eyes while playing with her unmistakable black hair.
“Are you, are you still awake? Wow…” the teenager commented, still unable to look at you directly.
“We are, what a setback, isn't it, young lady?” you said in a motherly tone. “Let's see... what time is it, Stella?”
“Um... I don't know, I forgot my watch,” your daughter said in a clueless tone, turning her ankle on the wooden floor.
“Oh, that's new. You make up better and better excuses,” you said in a mocking tone. “Don't worry, I'll tell you what time it is... it's... 2 in the morning!” you screamed furiously, getting closer to the young woman, who shrank in embarrassment.
“Really? Wow...” Stella said, seeking refuge in her mother, who silently watched the conversation without saying anything, as always.
“Look at me, young lady... you've gotten yourself into quite a mess,” you said in a stern tone, crossing your arms. “You're going to be grounded until the day of...”
“What? Why? It’s not fair,” young Beneviento protested, stamping her feet in a childish way. “I told you I forgot my watch.”
“Tell me, Stella, do I look like a fool?” you said ironically with a smug smile, blinking in the same way.
“Can I answer?” Angie intervened, pulling at your dress.
“Shut up,” you growled, causing the doll to take refuge behind its owner’s legs. “Donna, for the Gods’ sake… say something.”
The lady in black was startled but cleared her throat, walking towards her daughter.
“Mamma, io…” the girl murmured, lowering her head.
“Stella, è un po’ tardi, vero?” Donna asked in a soft tone, with a look that didn’t have the spark of anger it should.
“Lo so…” the young lady sighed. “Ma era la festa di Paola…”
“Paola?” you interrupted, putting a hand on the brunette's shoulder. “The butcher's daughter?”
“Y-Yes,” your daughter answered, looking at you briefly and then back to the eye of her dear mother, her protector, unfortunately. “I was having fun, so I didn't want to go home that soon.”
“It's not about what you want, Stella, it's about listening to what I tell you to do,” you said, with a calmer, but authoritative tone.
“If it were up to you, I wouldn't leave the house,” Stella murmured, looking away even further.
“What? That's not true,” you said in your defense, forcing the young lady to look at you. “Hey, look at me.”
“Lasciami,” the girl protested, struggling with your grip. “Mi stai infastidendo.”
“What? Am I annoying you? Is that what you said?” you asked, glancing at your wife. “Did she say that?”
The lady nodded slowly, sighing at the tense situation.
“Oh, excuse me, your royal highness…” you said in a mocking tone. “Don't worry, Stella, I won't annoy you anymore, especially since… You're grounded.”
“No!” the teenager protested, clenching her fists. “Why?”
“Disobeying me,” you said calmly, crossing your arms with a cold look. “Now stop protesting and go up to your room.”
“That's unfair!” the young girl shrieked, with a look of hatred that pierced your chest. “You can't ground me for that… Mamma…” she whispered in a pleading tone, looking at the brunette, who sighed, running a hand through her hair.
“Oh, no, no, Donna isn't going to defend you,” you said, looking away from your daughter to look at your wife, laughing sinisterly. “Isn't that right, Donna?”
“Um... well...” the doll maker murmured, moving you away from Stella, with a mediating tone. “Let it be, (Y/N), the girl has returned home safe and sound and...”
“I can't believe you, my love, the girl has disobeyed, she deserves a punishment,” you said incredulously, with your mouth half open.
“Forget it, (Y/N),” the lady said, gently grabbing your shoulder. “Stella was having fun with her friends, she wasn't doing anything wrong.”
“You see?” said the young girl, with a triumphant smile, resembling the Lord even more.
“I can't believe it...” you sighed, clenching your teeth. “Donna...”
“Hey, come on, it's okay... Tomorrow is another day, besides, Stella has learned the lesson, haven't you, signorina?” Donna said, hugging you affectionately despite your reluctance.
“Yes, I promise,” Stella said, rolling her eyes. “I'll be good, really.”
“Mm? How about that?” the brunette said amused, giving you a quick kiss on the cheek. “Go to your room, Stella, it's late and you should rest.”
“Yes, yes, right away,” your daughter said, approaching Donna and giving her a quick hug. “Ti voglio bene, mamma...”
“Anch'io, tesoro,” the lady whispered, kissing her daughter's forehead.
The young lady nodded and looked at you amused, discreetly sticking her tongue out at you in a mocking manner. You raised your eyebrows, but you weren't in the mood for another argument, so you ignored her teasing.
“Great,” you sighed, crossing your arms.
“Good night!” the girl said, gesturing to the doll, who immediately approached. “Come, Angie, I have to tell you many things.”
“Oh… girls' night,” the puppet said, letting Stella pick her up as they climbed the stairs.
Silence fell over you both as the bedroom door closed and you, slowly and menacingly, looked at Donna, who seemed in a hurry to escape from your darts.
“Wonderful, Donna,” you hissed, shaking your head. “Wonderful.”
“Come on, (Y/N), forget it,” she said, comically running away from the threatening footsteps approaching her. “It's fine this way.”
“It's fine this way? Ugh… Okay, I've had enough Beneviento for today, I'm going to bed,” you said, exhausted and worn out, passing by the lady in black, who quickly followed you so you wouldn't go down without her.
“W-Wait,” she said, following you to the elevator.
Another day in the hell of your happiness. Lying in bed, ready to pretend to be angry with the lady in black, you thought about your past, about all the events that led you to that situation, 15 years ago.
You were just another young girl from the village, another unfortunate soul who decided to be born in that sinister place. Your life was boring, but your youth gave you the advantage of seeing the bright side of things, or rather, the fun side. Your parents were always on your heels, trying to control you so your pranks didn't go too far.
Going out at night, having clandestine parties, playing dangerous challenges... At 18, that was your daily routine. As a rebellious young girl, you were the best, but also you were the most daring.
You can still feel the cold breeze of that night, when the fun got out of hand and your friends challenged you to a very dangerous challenge. The premise was simple: enter the grounds of Donna Beneviento and stay there for half an hour.
It wasn't the first time you'd snuck into a Lord’s territory, but you had to admit that this veiled woman, dressed in black, and her talking doll gave you the creeps. Of course you would have done anything to prove yourself to your friends, and as scary and dangerous as it was, you decided to accept the challenge.
Darkness was encroaching on you, and your brain was busy forming shadows with everything you could see. Still, you always considered yourself brave, and you didn't look back. Time was running out, and you were going to be the queen of the party again, but before you could take a step, danger appeared in front of you.
Donna Beneviento, the doll maker, the youngest of the four Lords, caught you. No matter how many times you humiliated yourself by begging this silent lady for mercy, to kneel in the snow, you knew it was your end.
Of course, it wasn't. Instead of nightmares and torture, you had a little chat with the lady in black (through her doll, of course). You had heard hundreds of horrible things about her, but it didn't take you long to see that you were a little bit wrong.
Visits to the estate weren’t long in coming, silent teas in which you both looked at each other, exchanged curious questions and hidden glances. Youth played against you, and it didn't take long for you to change that kind of platonic admiration for an irrational and intense love. Luckily, the lady was also interested in you, and so, your romance began.
Donna was a sick, strange and lonely woman. Her beauty struggled to show itself overshadowed by a horrible scar that you never gave importance to. You loved her, she loved you. According to you, Donna would always be the most beautiful woman in the world.
But your 18 years old weren’t enough to realize the possible consequences of your actions. The Black Gods seemed to have had too much fun with the lady in black, altering her body in an almost cruel way. Once again, it didn't matter to you in the slightest.
But not caring didn't mean you ignored the dangers of making love to her without protection. Donna didn't make any effort to do so either, but you should have known that, you knew her.
You were young and reckless, and that carelessness led to an improvised scenario, one that you, even today, you didn't feel ready for. The test didn't lie, you were pregnant.
Your emotions were a whirlwind that could devastate the entire village. You were afraid, angry, sad... Negative feelings about the new life that was on the way. Donna, on her part, saw your pregnancy as something... well, maybe not indifferent, but unimportant. You couldn't expect her to understand all your doubts, your reluctance to be a mother at such a young age.
Despite the disturbing news, the love you felt for her didn’t diminish, and, in order to calm the traditionalist way of think of the lady, you decided to marry her. After all, you already knew that she was the woman of your life. You knew it before carrying her child in your womb.
After a few months of extreme care, of insecurities you faced with Donna, a new life came into your life, a beautiful baby, a girl with visibly black hair and a charming smile. Stella Beneviento was born.
Taking care of such a fragile being was complicated, but, the two of you proved that you could do it. Holding your daughter in your arms calmed your fears, and, as she grew, you realized more and more that it was the life you wanted despite your young age.
You remembered what your daughter was like in that tender time of childhood. A nice, polite girl and, well… saying that she looked like Donna was only the surface. She was a damn clone of the lady in black.
Adorable, cheerful… That girl was amazing, she was the daughter you always dreamed of, and the one Donna loved with all her heart.
It was a wonderful time that ended abruptly with the first disagreement you had with Stella. Her rebelliousness, one of the few things she had inherited from you, soon began to cause problems. Running away, disobeying, saying bad words (surely due to Angie's bad influence)… All of that became a routine that only got worse.
Donna was a good mother, she really was, but she did spoil young Beneviento too much, something you warned her about at an early age, but she didn't pay any attention to it. You reap what you sow, they used to say.
Your 33 years weren't enough, not even… well, you never really knew Donna's age, and the fact that she didn't get old didn't help at all: it didn't matter; the thing is that you were young, and inexperienced.
You couldn't help but feel that you didn't have the experience required to handle your unruly daughter, and besides, Donna wasn't behaving as she should, spoiling her daughter, something you were convinced she wouldn't stop doing.
“What are my girls doing?” you asked the next day at noon, bringing a steaming pot to the table.
Mother and daughter were sitting on the sofa, sewing, or at least trying to.
“Così?” young Stella asked, greeting you disinterestedly.
“Mm...” Donna murmured, glancing at the fabric her daughter was sewing proudly, smiling tenderly. “Buon lavoro, Stella.”
“Grazie, mamma,” the girl said, smiling triumphantly as you approached. “Hey, hey, I haven't done anything.” she said frightened, making a peace gesture with her hands, to which you frowned.
“I know that,” you said, rolling your eyes. “Do you think I'm always going to tell you off?”
“Well, you always do,” she replied, in a petulant tone. “Mamma is teaching me how to sew.”
“Mm, that's fine,” you said, nodding, playfully pinching the teenager's cheek, which made your daughter make an embarrassing gesture. “How is it going, Donna? Is she a worthy successor?”
“The best successor,” the lady said, kissing you softly on the lips.
“Hey, don't do that! How disgusting…” Stella protested, looking away while you laughed in amusement.
“That's it, you disgusting cheesy fools!” Angie added, climbing onto your daughter's lap. “Get out, out, out…”
“Hey, give me a break,” you joked, reluctantly moving away from the brunette's lips, who laughed with her eye shining. “Well, Donna, honey, let's eat.”
“Great, tesoro… it smells wonderful,” the lady said with a tender smile, getting up from the sofa.
“Hey… the table isn't set,” Stella murmured, surely knowing what was coming. “Oh…”
“Run, Stella, run before…!” Angie shrieked, pulling on the young Beneviento's dress.
“You're not going anywhere, young lady,” you said amused, grabbing the shoulder of your daughter, who gulped comically. “Set the table, will you?”
“You always do the same, what's the problem with setting it yourself?” she protested with a childish tantrum, crossing her arms.
“I've cooked. When you cook, I'll set the table. Come on, don't complain,” you said with an authoritarian tone, pointing to the cupboard where the plates were kept.
“You're worse than a sergeant,” the teenager growled. “I don't want to set the table.”
“Stella, please, can't you be a good girl for once?” you asked, rubbing your eyes, feeling frustrated by your daughter's ever-rebellious attitude, one that seemed like it would never change.
“I don't want to,” the young lady said, looking away.
“Hey, come on…” Donna interrupted, grabbing your waist to make her way through you two. “Listen to your mother, Stella.”
“Ma, mamma… it's always me,” your daughter said, looking at you resentfully.
“Well, it's not like she asked you to climb a mountain, right?” the lady joked, tilting her head, amused. “Come on, tesoro, we'll set it together, okay?”
“O-Okay, that sounds better,” Stella said with a triumphant smile, probably holding back the urge to make fun of you again.
“Oh, you two are hopeless…” you sighed, shaking your head. “Hurry up, or it's going to get cold.”
The lady and her clone, oh, sorry, her daughter, set the table amidst playful comments. At least you expected it to be a quiet meal, that's what you wanted to hope for…
“What's this?” the girl asked, dipping her spoon into the plate and playing unpleasantly with the liquid inside.
“A delicious, warm vegetable soup,” you said, serving yourself and Donna a glass of wine.
“Delicious? It has to be a joke,” the young lady said, crossing her arms with a look of disgust. “Mom, I don't like it.”
“Oh, your majesty doesn't like it…” you said ironically, shaking your head while Donna, oblivious to the conversation, began to eat on her own. “Well, I'm sorry, but it is what it is.”
“I don't like vegetable soup, I want mamma to make me pasta carbonara,” said the girl, grumbling and pushing her plate forward.
“Your mother is eating. Leave her alone, she's not your servant. Eat,” you said in a patient tone, enjoying the warmth of the soup
“But I don't like this soup,” she repeated again, with a defiant look. “Mamma…”
“Eat, tesoro, your mother made it with all her love,” Donna said, without looking up.
“No, she made it to annoy me, she knows I hate vegetables,” the brat said, looking at you furiously.
“Stop talking nonsense and eat,” you said with a loud hiss, but without losing your patience, yet.
“No,” she said defiantly. “I want mamma’s pasta.”
“Do you? Fine, then don’t eat,” you sighed, taking a sip of wine as Donna watched, impassive. “That’s your decision.”
“Oh, you want to starve me to death?” Stella said, pointing at herself to be more dramatic.
“Stella Beneviento,” you said firmly. “Eat your damn soup.”
“Oh, Mom, you swore,” your daughter mocked, making you growl in rage.
“That’s enough,” you said, slamming the table, causing Donna to slowly get up, without saying anything, and disappear down the hall. “Donna?”
The tense glances increased the tension of the moment. Your daughter looked at you and you did the same, in complete silence, an exchange of glances that could melt the largest iceberg in the world.
“Prego,” Donna whispered, appearing after a while and leaving a plate of steaming pasta next to her daughter.
“I can't believe it...” you sighed when you saw Stella's excited look at her new meal. “Donna...”
“I don't want you to argue, (Y/N). It's already solved,” the lady commented, sitting down again.
“Grazie, mamma...” the teenager said, with admiration, eating while holding back the urge to smile triumphantly again. “You are the best.”
“Donna...” you growled looking at the brunette, who shrugged and continued eating as if nothing had happened.
Luckily, that calmed the meal, turning into something like a relaxed lunch.
“Oh, keep my dessert, I have to go,” the young girl said, finishing her plate and getting up from the chair.
“Go? Where to?” Donna asked, with a curious look.
“I'm meeting my friends, it's Roberto's birthday,” the girl answered, looking at you briefly.
“I think you're grounded, young lady,” you said with an ironic tone.
“I think I’m not. Mamma Donna said I wasn’t,” the young lady answered, putting on her coat.
“Mamma Donna says a lot of nonsense,” you corrected, looking at an embarrassed lady in black, who pretended to drink water. “This afternoon you're going to stay home to work on your studies.”
“It's Saturday,” Stella said, crossing her arms. “Stop pestering me.”
“And you stop being that… Ugh…” you said, getting up abruptly. “Oh, no, you're not going out.”
“But…”
“I said no, clear the table,” you said sternly, pointing at it.
“I don't feel like it,” your daughter rebuked, in a mocking tone.
“Well then… then… go to your room and stay there,” you said nervously, losing patience little by little.
“Mm, va bene,” she said, with a strange smile, obeying you immediately, something that was not a good sign, at all.
“Va bene? Stella… come, come back here,” you said angrily, pointing at the floor. “Stella!”
You couldn't do anything.
As you could already see, the teenager wouldn't take no for an answer, and it wasn't long before you heard some familiar noises on the roof. Your daughter had escaped again, climbing out the window.
You were so tired that you could only collapse into a chair.
“Gods... she's out again, Donna... I don't know what to do anymore,” you murmured with your hands covering your face, on the verge of tears.
The lady in black slowly stood up, bending down to take one of your hands and gently caress it.
“Oh, damn it...” you groaned, getting up and walking out the door. “Stella, I hope you're here before dinner!”
“Yes, mom!” You heard in the distance.
“Ugh...” you sighed, letting the lady in black hug you. “She's going to finish me off.”
“Shh, calm down, tesoro…” Donna whispered in your ear, gently brushing your hair away from your face. “Calm down…”
“Donna, if only you had moved away in time…” you said quietly, remembering past mistakes. “I-It doesn't matter…”
“Mm, let me pick up the dishes, and you, try to relax, I'll be with you in no time,” she said, kissing you softly before disappearing with an understanding smile.
You heeded her words, sitting down on the couch with a tired sigh. There, you began to remember better times, times when your daughter wasn't an unbearable brat but a happy baby, a polite and respectful girl.
Searching through a box of old memories, you found one of the old photographs from when Stella was little more than a crying baby. Your face was a smile, and Donna looked in admiration at the baby you held.
It was all so rushed and Stella grew up so fast…
“My girl,” you whispered, running your hand over one of the photos in which young Beneviento was the protagonist, one in which the girl lovingly hugged Angie. “Have I done something wrong?” you asked yourself, thinking, with the passage of time and failures, that the girl's indomitable attitude was your fault.
“I'm here,” Donna said, finally appearing and sitting next to you.
You hid one of your tears and kissed her slowly, snuggling up to her.
“Are you looking at the photos? We haven't changed much, have we?” the lady said, amused, also searching through the photographs, comically placing one of them next to her face.
“How funny,” you said in a mocking tone. “You haven't changed at all,” you whispered, sinking into her body, a gesture that the lady in black captured, surrounding you with her arms.
“Mm,” she murmured, snuggling you into her chest while she caressed your hair, kissing it in a loving, charming way. “Stella is certainly the one who has changed the most.”
“Yes…” you sighed deeply, closing your eyes to feel her caresses even more. “She is too much like me.”
“That's not a bad thing, right?” she asked, with a soft and melodic voice, one that you adored.
“Yes, it is… Physically it's just like you, but with my stupid teenage mentality,” you said, looking at one of the last black and white photographs (due to the time delay that place suffered). “It's a dangerous combination.”
“Do you think so?” the doll maker asked amused, kissing you again and bringing you closer to her warm body. “It could be.”
“Donna, I… I'm, I'm going through a bad time,” you confessed, putting away the photographs and drawings of little Stella. “I don't know what to do.”
“A bad time? What's wrong, tesoro?” the lady asked, with a more worried tone.
“Stella is making me crazy… I try, I really try to make her a good girl but… she never listens to me and… I'm starting to get desperate, Donna, I'm starting to think that I'm not a good mother, that I haven't known how to educate our daughter.”
“Don't say that,” Donna whispered, caressing your face, lifting your chin so that you would look at her. “You're a good mother, (Y/N), the best one.”
“It doesn't seem like it…” you sighed. “Stella is getting older every day and I feel, I feel I'm not capable of… of even making her see me as her mother, do you understand? I think she hates me.”
“That's not true, Stella loves you very much, you're her mommy, remember? Mommy, mommy, the monsters in the closet scare me,” she said, imitating the voice of a little girl, something that, at least, made you smile.
“Those times are long gone,” you said with nostalgia, shaking your head and letting a tear slide down your cheek. “I wish I could go back and... it doesn't matter, Donna, just, just hold me, okay?”
“With pleasure, amore mio...” the doll lady whispered, letting you drown your tears in her clothes, a cry of desperation and rage, of frustration, that the lady in black knew how to understand and relieve.
The afternoon passed like that, with a relaxing silence, with her kisses, whispers and caresses relaxing your worries, at least until the shrill sound of the phone interrupted that peaceful tranquility.
“I'll go, darling,” you said, moving away from her embrace to go to the vibrating phone. “(Y/N) Beneviento on the phone, who is it?”
“Oh, I was hoping to talk to Donna, but I guess you'll do,” the smug, mocking voice on the other end told you, without words, who it was.
“Karl…” you whispered, rolling your eyes as you recognized the Lord. “What do you want?”
“What manners,” the man mocked, laughing amused. “Am I interrupting something?”
“Yes, my life, do you want to talk to Donna?” you asked, looking at the lady, who frowned, absentmindedly playing with Angie, surely excited by the call, as always.
“It's not necessary… I'm just calling you to say that my dear little niece had a lot of fun this afternoon,” he said passively, immediately putting you on alert.
“What?” you asked startled. “Stella?”
“Yeah, yeah... Apparently she and her friends thought it was funny to sneak into my factory and waste my resources,” he commented, with the same arrogance.
“Gods... what happened?” you asked nervously, playing with the phone cord while Donna also approached.
“Your kid broke into my factory with two of her friends, activated two of my soldats and created a mess that I had to clean up myself...”
“Shit,” you said furiously. “Is she okay?”
“Perfectly fine, she's here, with me… hey, brat, do you want to talk to your mother? No? I assumed so,” Karl said, laughing mockingly. “I guess you want her back, right?”
“Y-Yes, bring her here, please,” you asked, breathing heavily.
“Of course...”
After that you hung up abruptly, growling furiously.
“What's wrong, (Y/N)? What happened?” Donna asked, calming your frightened fury.
“Your daughter, Donna, that's what happened,” you hissed, moving away from the lady in an unpleasant manner. “She's sneaked into your brother's factory and… Gods…”
The wait seemed like an eternity to you, but finally the Lord arrived next to your daughter, who kept her head down.
“This is yours, right?” the metal man said, gently pushing his niece.
“Karl, I'm sorry for the inconvenience,” you said apologetically while Donna followed her daughter with her gaze. “If there's something we can do…”
“Oh, no, no, it's not important. It's just kids' stuff, isn't it?” he said, turning gracefully and waving his hand. “Arrivederci…”
“Um…” the teenager muttered, scratching the back of her neck, possibly nervous because of your furious look as you closed the door and turned to look at her, arms crossed. “I'd better go to my room.”
“Hey, hey, hey… Not so fast, miss,” you said, preventing her escape with a strong grip on her arm. “What the hell were you thinking?”
“Hey, I didn't do anything. My friends challenged me and…” the young lady said, pathetically apologizing.
Donna as always, just watched, perhaps with a colder than usual expression.
“Of course, your friends… How could you possibly sneak into your uncle's factory!? Have you lost your mind? You could have hurt yourself,” you snapped, shaking your head, still holding on to your daughter.
“Nothing happened to me, see? I'm fine,” she said cockily. “I was just having fun. Besides, Uncle Karl doesn't care.”
“Maybe he doesn’t because he's a crazy maniac, but I do, Stella, I'm sick of you doing whatever you want all the time,” you growled, waving your arm and pointing your finger at her, who moved furiously, pushing you in an unpleasant way.
“You’re not in charge!” she shrieked childishly, clenching her fists on either side of her hips.
“I'm your mother, Stella! You have to obey me!” you shouted, tears welling up in your eyes again.
“Are you my mother?” she asked, in a defiant tone, getting a little closer. “Did you want to be?”
“What? What the hell are you talking about?” you asked, shaking your head and blinking erratically.
“I know! I know you didn't love me! That I was just a mistake!” your daughter shrieked, leaving you frozen.
“You don't know what you're saying,” you hissed, terribly hurt by the comment. “You have no idea…”
“Of course I have, you don't have to be a genius to see that you're very young,” Stella said, taking advantage of your weakness. “You're only overprotective because you didn't know how to be with yourself, and that's why I was born!”
“Stop talking like that, brat, you're pissing me off…” you threatened more intensely. “Stop talking nonsense.”
“It's not nonsense! You're demanding something from me that you weren't capable of doing!” she protested again, irremediably winning the conversation.
“I demand you to obey me, Stella!” you screamed, increasing the tension even more. “Donna!” you said, looking at the lady in black, who listened to the screams expressionless while you began to sob. “For the Gods’ sake, do something!”
“You ask her for help because you know I'm right,” Stella said with a mocking smile, while you shook your head. “Don't blame me for your complexes.”
“Go to your room!” you yelled angrily, pointing to the stairs.
“No! You're unbearable, mom!” the young lady yelled back, making you back away. “I can't stand you... I don't love you... I wish you weren't my mother,” she hissed through clenched teeth, making you sigh and sob louder.
“Honey...” you said with a broken voice, noticing a hand on your shoulder that moved you a bit. “No…”
Donna approached, walking with a somewhat hurried steps and a nervous breathing.
Without saying a single word, with a look full of anger, she stood in front of your daughter, giving her a resounding slap that left the mansion completely silent.
“Mamma…” Stella sighed, with the hand on her cheek and her eyes wide open.
You shook your head, surprised by what you had just seen, unable to believe it.
“Donna…” you gasped, without taking your gaze off the silently enraged lady, who was staring your daughter's eyes and getting a little closer, threatening.
“Don't ever talk your mother like that again, have you heard me?” she whispered with a dark, dangerous, authoritative voice, a voice like yours had never been. “Mi hai sentito!?”
“S-Sì…” Stella murmured, stunned, looking in terror at her mother, who remained surprisingly firm.
“Fine,” Donna said, hands on hips. “Now go to your room, and don't come out until you apologize to your mother.”
“But…”
“Go to your room! Vai!” the lady in black shrieked, pressing her lips tightly together and pointing at the stairs. “Vai!”
“Sì, mamma,” the teenager whispered, turning slowly and picking Angie, her silent defender, up from the floor. “Co-Come on Angie…”
“You'll pay for this, silly Donna!” the doll shouted, making mocking gestures in the arms of the young lady, who climbed the stairs sobbing.
“Shut your mouth or I'll deactivate you!” Donna shrieked, causing the doll to take refuge even in the arms of her young owner. “Cazzo…”
“Donna,” you said, leaving some time for the lady to calm down and approaching from behind, turning her body slowly. “Gods, Donna…”
“What?” she asked with her gaze still enraged. “I haven't done anything to her, it was more of a caress than a slap,” she said defending herself against what she thought was a protest from you.
“I know, my love… Wow, so you do have character,” you said smiling, noticing a lustful feeling forming inside you, an unexpected one.
“I won't allow anyone to insult you, (Y/N), not even that brat,” the lady said, without hugging you back, looking away. “You're right, she needs manners.”
“Mm, yes… and you're going to teach them to her, aren't you, my love?” you purred in her ear, making her hands go straight to your waist and her brow furrow.
“If it's necessary, I will do it,” Donna said, sure of herself. “She won't insult you again, you have my word.”
“Oh, I like your word,” you said with a velvety voice, approaching her lips slowly, devouring them wetly, startling the lady in black, who moved away confused.
“Um, what, what are you doing?” she asked, holding your wrists, which were already starting to play with her dress. “(Y/N)?”
“It's just that... seeing you so... authoritative, so... firm...” you said, playing with your finger on her chest, one that her eye followed with curiosity. “Donna, you've turned me on.”
“Me hitting our daughter has turned you on?” the lady asked, surprised and horrified.
“No, silly...” you said, shaking your head and pulling her hand towards the living room. “What has turned me on is… seeing you defend me like that… I’ve wanted to see you that way for a long time.”
“(Y/N), please, I don’t…” she said, nervous, while you cornered her against the desk, changing positions with a soft movement of your hands and sitting on the old wooden table.
“Shh, shut up, my love…” you whispered in her ear, bringing her closer with a soft tug on her dress. “Now, tell me how naughty I am…”
“(Y/N), it’s not the time for… (Y/N),” Donna said, opening her eye wide when your hand passed over the black fabric, noticing the incipient bulge that revealed her erection at your words. “H-Hey… don’t…”
“Oh, wow, I think so, my love,” you said amused, tightening your grip on her covered shaft, causing the lady in black to gasp irresistibly. “Look at you… You’re so hard…”
“I-It's your fault,” she said, shaking her head, but allowing herself to enjoy your intense grip. “Cazzo…”
“Don't swear, Donna,” you said amused, playing with your underwear until you pushed it aside, with your lips very close to hers. “I prefer you to use that mouth of yours to kiss me.”
“Oddio…” she sighed, finally letting herself be carried away by your deep kisses, by the soft swaying of your hips on the desk. “(Y/N)…”
“My love… I love you…” you sighed, noticing how her impatient hands fought with the skirt of her dress, releasing her throbbing erection while playing with your body to position it correctly.
That improvised declaration of love made the lady stop before brushing against your impatient wetness, briefly caressing your face.
“Ti amo, (Y/N)… tu sei la mia vita,” she whispered, taking a moment to kiss you romantically, ignoring her throbbing desire, which was already rubbing against yours.
“Mm, baby…” you purred, laughing embarrassedly at those hot and romantic whispers. “Come, I don't know how much time we have.”
Quickly, ignoring the foreplay, you gently grabbed her erection, stimulating it for a while before inserting it into you with ease, something that always made you moan outrageously.
“Shh, tesoro…” Donna whispered to you, covering your mouth, fighting against her own pleasure. “Not that loud.”
“Mm, I'm sorry… you're so big,” you moaned, writhing in pleasure at how your walls stretched to make way for her hurried thrusts. “Donna, Gods…”
The lady growled as she felt the pressure of your body on hers, as she felt that lascivious and wet embrace, as she slid with extreme ease. Of course, you weren't lying when you told her that the situation had turned you on.
That Donna defended you with rage, with fury, was something you always loved, something that made you remember every day why you loved her, why you started such a wonderful family with her.
“Fuck, yes! Oh, Donna, dominate me! Harder, my love!” you moaned loud, succumbing to the pleasure and forgetting about discretion as her thrusts accelerated and her moans lost their modesty as well.
“That's what you want, isn't it?” the lady said amused, coming out of you to grab you by the waist, turning you around abruptly, causing an annoying noise as it made the things on the desk shake. “You're a very bad doll…”
“Yes, yes, I'm the worst!” you squealed, moving eager to feel her again, rubbing your hips against her erection, one that was quick to take you from behind, moving you along with the table. “Yes, Donna, yes, fuck me!”
“Mm, così stretta…” the lady murmured, gripping your hips tightly, guiding them to her desired rhythm, only letting them go to give you a few soft, spicy spanks, completely lifting your dress.
“More, Donna!” you screamed, feeling your body tightening more and more, motivated by the moans and grunts of pleasure from the brunette. “Donna, I'm going to… I'm going to cum!”
“Cazzo! (Y/N)!” the lady screamed, panting as your body went crazy, squeezing her with your walls, causing her own release inside of you, wetting you with her warm seed. “(Y/N)…”
“Mm, Donna, that was…” you said laughing, moving your hips with her still inside you and feeling the wetness running down your legs. “…amazing”.
“Y-Yes…” she said, slowly withdrawing and covering herself with her dress, pulling yours down as well. “I-I hope Stella didn't hear us,” she said, catching her breath as you turned around, capturing her lips briefly.
“Bah, I'm sure she didn’t,” you said, teasingly pulling on her lower lip. “Well… How about we take a bath? We've earned it.”
“Certo,” Donna said, with a tired smile. “I'll make dinner later.”
“It's a perfect plan, my love,” you whispered, walking hand in hand with her towards the elevator.
Of course it was. A relaxing bath with your wife managed to dispel that bitter moment, the argument with your daughter that Donna miraculously solved. You didn't want to think about it too much, but you couldn't help but think about whether that severe, but necessary, attitude of the lady of the dolls had served any purpose.
“Stella! Dinner is ready!” you shouted, looking at the stairs, a bit calmer. “I really want to try this lasagna…”
“Mm, that's what you always say,” Donna said, winking at you with complicity, due to that passionate outburst earlier. “Where's the girl?”
“I've already called her, she's probably still upset,” you commented, pouring yourself a glass of wine and looking back at the hall. “Stella! Come down, we have lasagna!”
Nothing, silence was your only response.
“Do you think…?” the lady in black asked, frowning.
“Gods, I should have imagined…” you sighed, standing up hastily. “She's run away again.”
Just when you were about to go through the whole territory to look for your rebellious daughter, the teenager appeared before you. Her head was looking at the floor and Angie accompanied her in silence.
“Well, you've finally decided to come down, come…” you sighed, gently pushing the young lady by her back. “Your mother made lasagna for you.”
“Grazie, mamma,” the young Beneviento murmured, without looking into her mother's eye, surely resentful of that ridiculous slap.
“Mm, niente,” Donna said, with a slightly petulant tone. “Siedeti.”
The young girl nodded and obeyed silently.
Yes, silence would be a good summary for that dinner.
“Um… Mom,” Stella said, with her gaze lowered, addressing you cautiously.
“What do you want, darling?” you asked with a tender smile, looking at Donna, who did the same.
“I'm sorry,” the young woman whispered. “I'm sorry about saying… those things to you.”
“Mm,” you murmured, listening attentively. “Good.”
“I really am… well I… I was angry because Uncle Karl caught me and… I mean I shouldn't have done it and… I shouldn't have… talked to you like that… Will you forgive me, Mom?” Stella said, now looking at you pleadingly.
“Oh, honey, of course I will,” you said with a smile, caressing your daughter's cheek. She stood up and, along with a sob, hugged you tightly.
“I'm sorry, Mom… what I said isn't true, I love you very much, I love you both very much and… I promise, I promise to behave better from now on, I'll be a good girl…” she said sobbing, letting your hug comfort her.
“Really?” you said suspiciously, glancing sideways at Donna, who smiled tenderly. “Honey…”
“Yes, really, but… Angie and I have something else to ask you,” your daughter said, moving away and turning exaggeratedly red. “A-Angie…”
“Listen carefully!” the doll said, causing you and the lady to look at each other with an arched eyebrow. “You disgusting fools!”
“Angie… What is it? Stella?” the brunette asked, curiously.
“Please don't… don't… do… that… again… in the living room… or… or at least don't shout that loud… You're going to cause me trauma…”

Any headcanons of Talon!Dick accidentally traumatizing the Titans or JLA?
Offhand comments about his time with the Court and being “made cold”. They don’t think anything of it until they realize that Dick means they quite literally killed him
The games he used to play at the court. An offhand comment when Donna pulls out a monopoly board
The one time Dick got shot in the head point blank and it barely kept him down for ten minutes. Scared the hell out of the Titans when he suddenly sat back up and continued fighting
Dick finding out about the birds and and the bees in relation to cuddle pollen and its misuse and suddenly sitting bolt upright, going even paler than usual “wait, Robin thought I was going to rape him?”
Some idiot going off about kill counts and Dick, thinking it’s a competition he must compete in, blankly saying “98” and leaving the room. On this day Batman reestablished himself as the scariest member of the entire JLA
Dick does not like Hal Jordan and uses him for training purposes. This training involves dropping from vents, random ambushes, and sticky notes in rooms he should have no access to. Hal is scared shitless of the Talon.

There is nothing I want more in the world than for the Titans to be hunting down a mad scientist supervillain and they narrow the trail down to a cutting edge lab that's had suspicious activity and purchases that match the supervillain's tech. One of the scientists has a suspicious record of leaving randomly throughout the day so they break into the lab to stake it out and it's... it's literally just Wally.
Like:
Wally, walking into an empty lab in a full lab coat with a bowl of cereal: ....
Wally, looking at a vent in the ceiling: 'Sup dude
Dick, under his breath: Oh goddamn it
Dick: Hi, Wally
Roy, popping out from behind a plant: Hey, Wally. What're you up to in this totally normal and unsupervised lab?
Wally: Science stuff.... and things...
Garth, rolling out from under a desk: Any of that science stuff happen to be of the 'mad science' variety?
Wally: I like to call it happy science
Dick, muffled from the vent: Wally-
Wally: Totally bored approved happy science thank you very much
Donna, casually leaning behind the door: ... Wally, your lab purchased twelve sonic audio emitters and a miniature wormhole generator for... it's written on the sheet as... 'extreme guitar hero'
Garth: The ethics board approved that?
Wally: It is bored approved.
Roy, sighing and walking out: Great so we're back to square one. Later, West.
Wally, waving as the Titans leave: Bye guys! Love you!
Wally:
Dick:
Dick, kicking open the vent and jumping down to glare at Wally: B-O-A-R-D approved or B-O-R-E-D approved?
Wally: I think if we're being honest with ourselves you already know the answer to that one.

The Gall of HeR!
Evan Buckley x Reader (Gender not Specified)
Plot: You come back home feeling blue from work. Luckily, Buck is there to lend you some support.
Genre: PG-13
A/N: New character! Only started watching 9-1-1 last year but wasn’t in the best back then. It’s been such a huge support to get where I am today so it’s only appropriate to do this! Also I can’t deny this is based on actual experience recently so this is my way of therapy😂 In all seriousness, note to self to always fight for myself because no one will do it for me.
“Hey! I’m home!”
Buck pads out of the kitchen in his “kiss the cook apron” that Eddie gave him as a Christmas Present last year as a joke.
“How’s work?”
I sigh, putting my bag to one side before unceremoniously dumping myself on the couch. “It was good, and then it was bad. Do I make sense?” My nose crinkles in confusion and I at that point I wished that my brain would stop running at a hundred miles per hour. Though, a part of me really needed to vent my feelings in a safe space. Buck was my safe space.
“They approached me for a possible promotion at the Library.” I start and Buck’s eyes lit up. “Yeah, that was my reaction. Inside. I didn’t expect this at all.”
Buck comes to sit beside me on the couch, body angled to face me fully. I take a deep breath and proceeded to explain how I had to ground myself first, to hear more details from HR before committing to that decision.
“So, I had that first meeting with Esther and obviously I needed time to process right? I didn’t understand some points that were raised and I wanted to clarify with her what some things meant to I called a second meeting the next day.” I explained. “The second meeting goes fine. It mostly involved her clarifying my doubts. Then after the meeting, she sends me an email noting all the things we discussed, and guess what?” I find the rage in the pit of my stomach bubbling.
“She adds in the extra clause that initially, they thought of reverting me back into my original position if things didn’t work out. But after considering the company’s position, if I did not perform or if I decided not to continue, I would have to leave the company!” My voice gets higher with each passing second. Buck reaches out to grab my hand, a soothing reminder that I was not in the library reading that darned email but I was here, with him.
“And then, Esther had the gall to storm into the library and yell at me what I meant when I sent that email and now she’s in trouble with the higher ups! My fault? How is expressing my opinions in a professional manner my fault?”
I finish off telling Buck that I wasn’t afraid of taking on the challenge. But my biggest issue was only being informed of this only after my second meeting and when I bought up the possibility of not taking on the role to her.
“Wow.” Buck purses his lips. I look at him reproachfully.
“You think I’m acting up too.”
“No. I think you’re standing up for yourself. No matter what others may say or think. It’s good that you question everything that’s being presented to you least you be taken advantaged.”
“Even if it means they might pass me up on this because they think I’m such a prima donna?”
Buck laughs. “In all seriousness. There are more ways to grow than besides promotions at work. You’re growing as a person and that’s more important. Do what you want to do and always do it for yourself.”
You don’t know what you did to deserve this man in this lifetime. Someone who supported you no matter what. That’s what you really needed right now.
“Thanks Buck,” you threw yourself into him for a hug. “I think I really needed to hear that. After all those times of doubting myself, I really needed to hear it.”
“Hey, you know I’m always your biggest supporter. Now let’s go and have dinner. Bobby taught me how to make this lasagna and we are not about to let it get cold.”
“Gosh, what would I do without you?”
“You’ll never have to know.”

Now my family blames me for not being on good terms with my cousin thus creating tension between all of us... well, I wonder why I'm not on good terms with him, I wonder why I cannot trust him...
