         she’s  come  a  long  way  ;  she’s  stopped  flinching  at  the  caring  touches  bestowed  upon  her  ,  she’s  stopped  running  from  affection  .  she’s  come  to  appreciate  the  simplest  of  gestures  ---  even  a  loving  arm  casually  wrapping  around  her  on  a  lazy  sunday  afternoon  ,  prompting  her  closer  .  she’s  no  longer  tense  ,  afraid  to  let  the  people  who  love  her  do  just  that  ;  love  her  .  she  finally  feels  safe  .  &  killian’s  among  the  people  at  the  top  of  her  list  who  definitely  take  credit  for  that  .  so  she  relaxes  into  the  hold  he  has  on  her  now  ,  schooching  closer  to  his  side  as  her  head  comes  to  rest  against  his  shoulder  ,  chin  tipping  so  as  to  press  a  quick  kiss  against  his  jaw  before  turning  her  attention  back  to  the  screen  in  front  of  them  .  she  could  get  used  to  this  .

celebrating the holidays on tumblr a little differently this year. in the past, i haven’t done a whole lot through my rp blogs to celebrate, and this year i wanted to change that. and what better way than to shine some light on the handful of rp partners i’ve had over the last 4 years that have made my time here so much better than it could’ve ever been without them?

please note there is no order to these, and i adore every one of the people i will be posting about to the max

12 Baes of Christmas

Sam aka @imnotthesavior @mommajxnes @drinksrum

This girl. Sam was one of the early people I met when I first joined the OUaT rp fandom. I’m pretty sure we joined within a couple months of each other, and we’ve been together ever since. Even if our interactions have been limited lately thanks life but I still love this girl to death. So much so that, despite recent canon developments, Killian and Liam I’s mother will always always always be named evelynn, and not alice. Although I don’t RP on Killian much anymore (read: once in a blue moon), the development in our verses will always be held onto because her Emma is just that important to him.

@drinksrum (is getting a thing because reasons and love)

“I’m glad you like it, Kil, I really am-- but, love, it could use a wash.” It had been a silly purchase, one on a whim because it had caught her eye and she thought it would bring out his. And it did. And when he smiled at her after pulling it over his head for the first time it took her back to the first time she got those butterflies in her stomach. “Perhaps I should have bought two.”

 The pirate rolled his eyes, James’ line of thinking enough to make an amused grin appear on his face. “And here I was thinking you wanted to be romantic, but you’re talking like a bloody dog in heat.” He grabbed his rum, finishing it off and gesturing to the bartender for another. James’ view towards women was very much a call back to his pirating days (that is, before Milah). Bed the woman after sunset and be gone before sunup. It had been a fine way to live if you were just interested in fulfilling certain needs, and the passion of one fiery night with no commitments. But it was hardly romancing. Romancing took time, effort.

              “Money, title…all well and good. But…transient, as you now see. But what about the person behind those, then? Have you ever tried leading things not as Prince James but just James?”

James nearly scoffed at Killian’s words, but the pirate had a point. The truth was, he wasn’t after some temporary fling, a quick release with no feeling or commitment behind it. The world might be due to end in the forseeable future, but - James Nolan wanted a relationship. He’d been more shocked to discover that about himself than he imagined anyone who knew him could possibly be. It’s those damn Charmings and their stupid happy little family. They’ve corrupted me. 

“Well there’s the problem.” He admitted sullenly, scowling now at the chipped surface of the bar as he idly twisted his glass of whiskey around and around in the pool of condensation that had gathered at its base. “I’m not just James here, am I? I’m Prince James, David’s brother James.” Evil twin James, to a lot of people. “That one’s the worst. People look at me and expect to see him, and then when they realise I’m nothing like my dear heroic brother, they don’t want to bother.”

Maybe   he   was   over   stepping  or   out   of   line,   but   sometimes   the   young   kid   from   queens  didn’t   know   the   difference.   he  had   spent   all   day   and   all   night  working   on   it.   using   the   technology   from  stark   industry   he   had   designed  a   hand   specifically   made  for   the   man.

So somehow (??) this blog has managed to hit 200 followers. Considering I never expected him to get 100 this is quite a (pleasant) surprise for me! Naturally I’m now going to give some love to a few blogs who have stuck with Ed from day one, or have shown him love over the couple of years I’ve been writing him.

The Pirate Husband - @captaindashingrapscallion / @anhonourablecaptain / @despxratesouls / @allthosevoices / @atipofthehat

Look, bitch, you are pretty much solely responsible for keeping this blog active because of our six thousand threads, and I will be forever grateful for all the love you throw at him. Also I will never let you forget that I made you ship BlackHook ;D one of my proudest achievements so far tbh.

The Deckhand - @avengehook

Lori. LORI. even though you’re hardly on Killian these days, you still get a special mention bc you were also one of the ones who kept Ed alive for so long, and regardless of whether or not you actually come back to write for Ed’s beloved deckhand, he will always adore your Killian (and ily always).

The Crew- People I’ve either had threads with on this blog, have chatted to ooc a fair deal, or are generally close friends.

@alifetimeofresentment | @floreatetona | @jollyrogerjones | @mutedmermaid | @pirateheroism | @piratetm / @trucidavit

New Shipmates- New partners, people who follow Ed (or who I follow) that I’d like to interact with, or who I interact with on my other blogs but would love to have threads with here.

@askifwehaveavocados | @drinksrum | @heroiique / @variedvainglory | @princeofsleepingbeauty | @repelswolves | @shecruel | @thebrcthersjones | @wasntallbad

I know some of you on this bias might not either a) follow this blog of mine or b) have any actual interactions yet (excluding the things in the inbox I haven’t touched yet), but I am always trying to throw my grumpy pirate captain at as many people as possible. Besides, I like to show a little love for people who have followed at least one of my blogs and supported my brand over the years.

WHAT COLOR SHOULD YOUR LIGHTSABER BE:

You got: Blue

Traditionally, wielders of blue-bladed lightsabers have deep, physical connections with the force. Jedi who use blue lightsabers are adept with physically focused Force powers, like Force Push and Force Barrier, but prefer lightsaber combat. Generally, wielders of blue-bladed lightsabers are morally good, and use the light side of the Force.

 It was obvious to Killian that this conversation, at least on James’ end, had taken a departure from the lighthearted casual chatter that it had been a minute ago. “Hey now. A bloody car can’t hold a candle to a magnificent ship such as mine.” Killian leaned forward, trained eyes scanning James curiously and with some modicum of concern. What had he said? The other man was practically crumpling in on himself, his whole demeanor screaming anxiety and rid of the other’s usual easy-going manner.

                      “We can drop it,” he affirmed, brow furrowing. He stepped closer, his steady hand grasping James’ shoulder. “James.” He ducked his head a little, trying to catch the other man’s frantic gaze. “What’s the matter, mate?”

James could feel his temper clawing its way up his throat, battling against the panic that trapped him in, and he knew if he didn’t get control of himself soon he’d end up lashing out at possibly the only friend he had in this damned town. When the hand clasped down on his shoulder, he almost wrenched away from the touch in an automatic flinch, but he held himself firm. Do not show weakness, James. A prince does not have weaknesses. 

“Nothing.” The word was clipped and short, his voice sharp, and he begged for Killian to drop the subject and let it be. Somehow, however, he doubted that was going to happen. Besides, part of him was actually pleased that someone cared enough to show concern for him - someone that wasn’t his brother, that is. There was only so much brotherly love he could take on a daily basis. “It’s... it’s nothing.”

✚: a kiss on a wound

[meme]

He was so gentle. Taking her hand in his while he crouched in front of her at the kitchen table. Wrapping the slice to her palm with such determination in his eyes, the heel of her hand being pressed to his lips and Jolly couldn’t help but blush. Even after all this time, Killian was very adept in making her cheeks and chest flush red.

It had been an accident; Jolly doing dishes and she’d forgotten about the knife in the bottom of the sink. A swear, and not moments later her knight in fuzzy wool was there to rescue her.

“I’m fine, Kil, really,” she spoke lightly, her free hand coming up and resting against his cheek. It hurt, aye, but it would heal. And she’d be left with a scar and a sweet memory.

When he was finished, she leaned down and gave him the sweetest of kisses, smile bright against his lips and her hand falling to rest atop the sweater she’d gifted him a week earlier. “Thank you.”

[justcallmejolly]

“Shh– No, no, don’t panic, love. You’re safe now.” (from drinksrum)

[meme]

At first it had come as shock. A husband. A presumably happy home life judging by how he kept looking at her when he thought she wasn’t paying attention. But she wasn’t ready to share a bed with this man, not quite yet. She knew somewhere deep down she loved him, she must have if she married him, after all.

And then the dreams began. A sweet little bright eyed girl and an equally sweet equally bright eyed boy. Laughter and beaches and a more recgonizable couple sharing intimate moments on a small craft on the water. Candle-lit escapes that left Jolly breathless by the time she woke.

This one had been different. Flashes of what must have been the accident plaguing her thoughts. The loud CRUNCHING of the vehicle around her. The pain. The hidden tears in his eyes--

All of that vanishing when a soothing voice pulled her free. A voice and an even more comforting pair of arms that she so easily folded into. As if he’d held her a thousand times, because she realized, he had. And she’d been denying him that for the past month or so.

A nod against his chest, tears wiped away on the top of his shoulder and with a shuddering breath, Jolly recomposed herself but didn’t pull away. “Stay--” A quiet request, “If you’d like. I-- I mean, I think I’ve held you at arms length long enough. How am I supposed to remember if I push you away.”

princesircastic’s 2 year birthday & 600+ followers bias list!

so since it’s officially this blog’s second year and I recently hit the 600 followers milestone (how????), I decided to combine the two into one bias list - and I’ll be doing some sort of teeny tiny giveaway as thanks to my wonderful followers! but more on that later, for now... allow me to gush about some special people and spread the love for those who have made being here such a lot of fun so far!

I Will Always Follow You-

@captaindashingrapscallion / @anhonourablecaptain / @despxratesouls

Charlie, without your demand this blog wouldn’t even be here, and I still can’t believe we’ve now had these idiot boys for two years. Honestly, it may be a cliché but it does feel like only yesterday when we started up H&D in your old bedroom in your family house at Christmas. If only we knew then that we’d end up with three Once blogs each and 354 threads across all of them. And yet... still not enough threads. Never enough threads. Ever.

@gixntkiller / @evilismade / @agoodjudgeofcharacter / @rottenredheart / @mutedmermaid / @teaandteleportation / Amy I feel like I’ve missed one of your thousand blogs here*

Amy. Amy. One day you may learn that asking me to discourage you from doing a thing will never result in me doing anything but encouraging you to do the thing, but it is not this day. (Spoiler: it will never be this day). I will forever love your lack of restraint when it comes to portraying a thousand characters, and always admire how you manage to write all of them so distinctly and differently. Never stop. *I’m not counting the hundred other fandom blogs you have in this list ;D

@cursehooked / @tetheredfates

LORI. my sun and stars forever. when it comes to you, my patience knows no bounds bc you are worth waiting months and months for even a single reply. your Killian will be David’s husband for all eternity and nothing will ever convince him otherwise. ily bae. always.

@askifwehaveavocados

Jo. <3 James’ true love, Ruby. I know you’ve been MIA for a little while lately but I won’t be going anywhere and James will always be waiting for his she-wolf so don’t you worry about that. I absolutely adore your writing, your portrayal, and well... you in general ???????? so you get a spot here bc it’s necessary. you’re perf <3

@imnotthesavior / @drinksrum

SAM U ALSO GET A SPOT bc you put up with my ramblings about James regardless of the topic/the hour and you ?? encourage them ?? which is probably a bad thing but I really don’t care (and neither do you). I will forever love our broship with James and Killian too - give me all of the things with those two idiots PLS.
