. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Curiosity led you to the local saloon one evening, where Billy often engaged in poker games. The air inside was thick with the smoky residue of cigars, and the occasional clinking of glasses underscored the distant melody of a forlorn piano. As you pushed through the creaking doors, your presence hung in the air, drawing the gaze of rough patrons whose eyes bore into you with a kind of familiarity you had never known. Unaccustomed to the bold gazes and suggestive comments that swirled around you like a threatening storm, you sought refuge at the bar. A man behind it was taking someone’s order.
You looked around, your eyes finally found Billy's familiar frame, surrounded by a haze of cigarette smoke, engaged in a high-stakes poker game.
“Hello, darlin’,” a drunken man stumbled toward you.
“Hello, sir,” you gave him a small smile, trying to avoid his intense stare.
He leaned against the bar to keep his balance. “Come on, darling, don’t be such a prude. Talk to me.” His hand reached up, attempting to caress your face.
From afar, you saw Billy, his eyes—usually mischievous and full of life—met yours with a fleeting recognition. Without uttering a word, he rose from his chair, his cowboy boots echoing a heavy cadence on the worn wooden floor.
The drunken man's intrusive advances persisted, his slurred words creating an uncomfortable tension. "Don’t play hard to get, honey. I can show you a good time," he insisted, his hand becoming more insistent. Ignoring the drunkard, you turned back to the bar, hoping for intervention. The man persisted, his persistence turning aggressive. As his hand encroached upon your personal space, a shadow fell over you. 
Billy's presence loomed, his gaze colder than the steel of his revolver. Without a word, he grabbed the man's hand, his grip firm and unyielding. “Leave her alone," Billy's voice cut through the clamor of the saloon, his words echoing with a subtle menace.
The tension escalated, a palpable undercurrent surging through the room. The patrons, sensing the imminent storm, shifted uneasily. Billy's eyes held yours, a silent reassurance amid the brewing chaos. The drunk man, now confronted by the notorious gunslinger, stumbled backward, a mixture of recognition and fear contorting his expression. With a final warning glare from Billy, he slinked away into the crowd.
Billy turned towards you, his eyes softening as if to assure you that the storm had passed. 
"What in the hell are ya doin’ here?", he murmured, his tone both gruff and concerned as he reached you, seizing your hand and guiding you to the quiet side of the room. "I needed to go out, Billy," you replied, your voice carrying a note of defiance and desperation.
He hissed, a trace of irritation etching lines across his rugged features. "You can’t. You gotta go home. These people here are dangerous," he warned.
"And you don’t think me leaving alone would be dangerous?" you shot back, your gaze a defiant challenge to the protective facade he wore like impenetrable armor.
"Shit," he conceded, his irritation mingling with a begrudging acceptance of your undeniable truth. "Alright, I’m finishing up my round, and then we can go," Billy relented, his tone an admission of defeat. "But you play along with me, ok? If they don’t think you're claimed, they'll see you as fair game," he said, his gaze locking onto yours with an intensity that cut through the smoky haze, demanding an unspoken oath.
“Ok,” you huffed out.
He pulled you towards his table with a rough yet oddly comforting grip, a silent acknowledgment that, for a fleeting moment, you were to be sheltered from the men surrounding you as long as you stayed with him. "Wait," he murmured, his hand lingering on yours. With a swift motion, he removed his hat, worn and weathered from a life on the precipice.
You extended your hand to stop him. "Billy, you can’t," you insisted, your voice barely more than a whisper, laden with the implications of his gesture. “You know what this means.”
"That’s the point," he declared, his crooked grin returning like a bittersweet promise of protection. As he placed his hat on your head, it became a proclamation, an unspoken claim made before the watchful eyes of everyone present, and a promise of a heated night that lingered in the air like an unspoken secret.
"Now, c’mere," he commanded, pulling you towards him as he settled into his chair, drawing you onto his lap. You bit on your lips, a mixture of anticipation and fear, the heat rising to your cheeks as the proximity between you tightened like a coiled spring. This was the first time Billy had been so close, and the magnetic pull of his presence ignited an unfamiliar fire within you.
He looked up at you as you bit your lips, his gaze a silent acknowledgment of the unspoken tension that hung thick in the air.
As he resumed his poker game, you felt his breath against your neck. "Pass me the whiskey, doll," he asked.
You leaned against the table, inadvertently pulling your hips tighter into his pelvis, sensing his hardness between you. His hands reached out against your hips, gripping you and keeping you still. "Careful," he warned against the shell of your ear, his breath raising goosebumps along your neck, a sensation that heightened the electrifying energy between you.
As you handed him the glass, he took a swig, and then, with a deliberate slowness, leaned down against the side of your neck, planting a lingering kiss. "Thank you, doll," his gravelly voice murmured, the aroma of whiskey lingering in the air.
Billy's fingers grazed lightly along your waist, sending a cascade of sensations through your body. His gaze met yours once more, a silent invitation lingering in his eyes. It was then that you became acutely aware of the speculative glances from the patrons, their curiosity fueled by the undeniable connection unfolding before them.
The weight of Billy's hat on your head felt like both a shield and a beacon, marking you as his amidst the prying eyes of the saloon.
The night passed on and as the final hand of poker concluded, Billy rose from his seat, still holding you close. "Wrapping it up for the night, boys. See ya tomorrow," he declared, his voice a mix of weariness and determination.
He grabbed your hand, guiding you out with a certain urgency. The saloon doors swung open, thrusting you back into the harsh glow of moonlight. As you stopped in front of his horse, he turned around and said, "What the hell were you thinking, coming here alone? You know how they treat women here."
His words cut through the night air, a mixture of concern and frustration etched on his rugged features. The distant sounds of revelry from the saloon formed a dissonant backdrop to the charged atmosphere between you.
You met his gaze, a swirl of emotions reflecting in his eyes. "I just wanted to have one free night, Billy. Just one," you replied, your voice carrying a note of desperation. Billy's jaw clenched, a silent acknowledgment of the dangers lurking in the shadows. "This ain't the place for that, especially not for someone like you," he muttered, his grip on your hand tightening as if to emphasize the point.
The weight of his words hung in the air, and for a moment, the world seemed to stand still. The moonlight cast shadows across his face, revealing the hardened resolve etched into his expression. "I can't have you wandering into places like this, doll," he continued, a trace of vulnerability underlying his gruff tone. "It's too damn dangerous."
Billy sighed, a heavy exhale that seemed to release the tension in the air. "Let's get you home," he said, his voice softened. With a final glance back at the saloon, you moved towards his horse. As you approached, he placed his hands on your hips, lifting you onto the horse with a gentle yet firm touch. You instinctively grabbed his forearm for support, your eyes locking in a shared moment of intimacy. 
The ride home was a silent journey through the cool night air, the rhythmic hooves of the horse creating a steady cadence. You sat in front of Billy, the warmth of his body enveloping you, his strong arms encircling your waist as you traversed the dimly lit trails. 
As the horse navigated the uneven terrain, Billy's embrace tightened slightly, offering both stability and reassurance. His chin rested on your shoulder, his warm breath tickling your neck, and in that intimate proximity, the weight of your unspoken desires lingered like an invisible thread weaving through the darkness.
Arriving at your doorstep, Billy helped you dismount, his touch lingering for a moment longer than necessary. Your eyes met, a complex tapestry of emotions woven between you. He spoke, his words a whisper carried away by the night breeze, "Be more careful, doll. This world ain't kind, especially to those with a heart as tender as yours." He placed his hand against your cheek, caressing it lovingly.
"Billy," you responded, the ache in your voice carrying a mixture of gratitude and longing. He placed a loving kiss on your forehead, his touch a hushed plea for silence. "Go to sleep, doll. I'll come by tomorrow morning," he whispered, giving you a kiss on the forehead, turning away.
"Billy, wait," an urgency surged within you, desperate to find a reason for him to stay. You took off your hat, intending to return it to him, a feeble attempt to anchor him in the moment. “Keep it. I prefer it on you,” he remarked, a bittersweet acknowledgment that stirred emotions too complex to unravel.
Locked in a gaze that spoke volumes, you inched toward him, a silent plea lingering in the air. As your fingers tightened around the hat, a palpable tension filled the space between you. His intense blue eyes held yours, revealing a tumult of unspoken struggles and desires. Your gaze shifted to his lips—slightly chapped yet irresistibly inviting. 
Closing the distance, you reached him, and, without hesitation, pressed your lips against his. The kiss was a desperate plea, an attempt to convey the emotions that words couldn't capture.
Billy's initial surprise melted into a shared passion, and for a moment, the world around you faded. His arms encircled you, pulling you close as if trying to etch the moment into his memory. As the intensity deepened, you let go of the hat, your hands finding their way to his jaw, pulling him even closer. He tasted your soft lips and felt your warm skin. He pulled away slightly, breath mingling with yours, lips lingering, an anguished pause in the silent night.
"Fuck, doll," he groaned, your foreheads leaning against one another, his hands gripping the fabric on your waist. You looked up into his eyes, witnessing the inner battle reflected in his gaze as he grappled with the decision to restrain himself or not.
You approached your lips to his cheek, giving him a slight peck, when you heard him whisper, "Fuck it." His lips crashed to yours, hungry, hot, and demanding, stealing your breath in a heated rush. His hand came up, cupping your jaw, angling your head to deepen the kiss as he slicked his tongue inside your mouth.
“Come, let’s go inside, yeah?” He asked. You nodded at him, as he gave you a quick kiss, ushering you inside, “good girl.” And in an instant, he’s moving toward you, wrapping his arms around your body and pressing you to his chest. You press your lips to his and moan at the taste of Whiskey. His tongue slides over yours in slow strokes that make your cheeks warm, but it’s when his teeth nip at your bottom lip that a whine escapes. 
His rough, calloused hands drop to the cusp of your neck, gripping your hair just tight enough to make you hiss. You arch into his touch as he starts to explore your body, mapping out every dip and curve. 
“Billy- Please
 do something.” He moans a response into your neck as his lips slip down to leave love bites along the column of your throat. 
Eager to feel you, Billy tried to pull at the strings of your corset, but to no avail. It was too complicated to remove in the dark, and with the emotions aptly blinding him, Billy had no patience to try.
In the dark, you heard a flick of a knife, and you felt a cold tip of the blade against your skin before Billy’s voice comforted you, “Be a good girl and don’t move, ok?”
A rip ran through the air as Billy sliced your corset in half from the back. You stayed perfectly still, trusting him completely to cut the clothing off of you without harming you at all. The moment Billy had cut your corset, he dropped it to the floor and pulled your top off with it.
He immediately lets his hands drop to your breasts, nipples already pebbling from the cool air. He pinches and pulls at them for only a moment before he’s trailing kisses down your stomach.
Bilily stops just above your hip bones, “May I?” he asks, blue eyes peering up at you. “Yes. Billy, please.” You beg him, voice thick with desperation. He chuckles and then rubs his hand over your throbbing clit. He slides one, then two thick fingers into your dripping pussy. A whimper bubbles from your swollen lips as he pulls back to spit on your heat. His fingers curl, digits stretching and scissoring inside you. Your head feels like it’s spinning, arousal leaking from your cunt and down Billy’s fingers. 
Your hips are unable to escape his assault on your g-spot when he pins you down, and you let out a moan you hardly recognize as your own. “Shit, you’re so wet.” His teeth catch his bottom lip as he smiles down at your fucked-out form. 
Billy’s hand never slows, even as he grinds his palm into your poor clit. You cum not long after, waves of pleasure crashing over and drowning you in euphoria. Your body is trembling as you come back to Earth and Billy is there, watching you from between your thighs. He places a kiss on your sensitive clit before he stands back up, towering over you. 
“Please. Fuck me, Billy.” You say through heavy breaths. He feels his head spin at the sound of your voice. 
“Whatever you want, doll.” 
Billy lays you across the couch and crawls over you, leaning back to release his aching cock from the confines of his pants. Saliva pools in your mouth at the sight of him, pre-cum drips from his flushed, red tip.
He fists his cock at the sight of you below him, lips parted and breasts heaving. Billy leans his body over yours, trapping you between him and the cushions below you. You can feel the muscle covering his torso press against your tummy. He ruts his cock through your pussy, the head catching on your clit deliciously. You both moan at the feeling and link your fingers together. 
“Fuck, you’re so perfect. I’m gonna make you all mine”, Billy coos down at you, searching your face for any hesitance. You nod at him, earning you a keen smile and a quick kiss. “It’s gonna hurt, doll, I’m sorry.” Squeezing his hand, you hold your breath when he lines himself up with your entrance.
You gasp when his tip slips into you, already feeling like he’s split you in two. Salty tears start to well in your lash line at the burn of Billy’s cock stretching you out for the first time. He’s much bigger than you anticipated and you dig your nails into his skin. 
“I know, I know. Just breathe.” He tries his best to comfort you, gritting his teeth at the feeling of your cunt around him. His heart stings at the sight of you crying for reasons other than pleasure, but he can’t help it when his hips buck, pushing himself another inch deeper.
Billy knows he should feel guilty for liking the way you screw your eyes shut, the way your cunt flutters around him even though he’d worked you open already. He’s not even halfway inside you and your legs are trembling around his waist while he holds himself back from pushing in balls-deep. He can’t help but feel a sense of pride swell in his chest at the effect he has on your body. 
Billy’s hand leaves yours and drops to your clit, rubbing tight circles with his thumb. Your mouth opens into an “O” shape and your sloppy cunt grants him another inch.  He can feel the velvet of your walls drawing him deeper, euphoria building in your veins. With every circle drawn, Billy pushes in further and further until he’s finally buried to the hilt. He stills for a moment, letting your cock-drunk mind play catchup with your body. “I’m gonna move, is that ok, doll?”
He pulls out, making you whine at the empty sensation, then, he’s driving his hips forward again. You loop your arms around his neck as he attacks your insides. Any words you have die on your tongue as Billy sets a rough, passionate pace. His tan skin, covered in old and new scars, feels slick against yours as his cock splits your mind in half. You can feel Billy everywhere, you can taste him, touch him, smell him, see him. He’s completely overwhelmed your senses and given you nothing to think about other than him.
The air around you is humid and thick, the scent of sex swimming through it. Billy slips in and out of you with ease, the clear strings of your slick and his pre-cum coat your pussy lips like a gloss. You let your gaze fall on him, watching how his brows furrow with concentration while he molds your insides into the shape of him.
Billy lifts your hips in the air to get an angle that allows him to hit even deeper, pumping his cock into you so hard that the air is forced from your lungs. There’s no one else you could want, no one else who could ever make you feel like this. 
“Shit Billy. I’m so close.” You moan, a familiar warmth starting to coil in your tummy. He nods and slots his lips against yours for one final kiss. His tongue explores your mouth as his dick strikes your g-spot, sending you headfirst into bliss. You cum hard as every nerve in your body is set aflame. His hot, sticky cum floods your walls and leaks from around his cock. 
Silence lies thick in the air aside from your heavy breathing and the soft kisses you share. Billy leans back to peer down at where you’re connected and shakes his head at you. 
He picks you up and places you over his hips, leaning you back. “Can’t waste this, doll.” He tuts at you, gathering the cum leaking from your abused pussy on his tip and pushing it back in. Throwing an arm behind his head, a fucked-out grin crosses his features as you sink down on his cock, letting him rub against your most sensitive spots. A strangled moan sounds in the back of your throat as he slowly pushes back into the deepest parts of your cunt.
His tongue darts out to lick the sweat off of his cupid’s bow, large hands moving to slide down your hips to grab at the fat of your ass. He guides you up and down on him as you babble and cry.
“I’ve got you, doll.” His words send a shiver down your spine and you brace yourself on his broad shoulders. Your cunt flutters around him, “Fuck Billy’-” you cry out.
Billy groans at the sight of a white ring around his shaft, made from a mixture of his and your cum. “So tight
 taking me so fuckin’ well.” He bucks his hips, tip grazing your g-spot just right, just enough to make your eyes roll up into your head. “C’mon, doll.”
He leans forward to press a kiss to your forehead, then captures your lips with his. He swallows every moan and hiccup as he pounds into you, only slowing when you clench impossibly tighter around him. Stars are dancing in your vision and pleasure is burning in your veins. You hear him swear again, he lets his head fall back onto the cushions and plants his boots flat on the floor. You nearly scream as he fucks back up into you. He’s growling something in your ear, but his words sound so far away. 
“Cum on my cock, doll. C’mon, do it. Do it for me.” Billy babbles in your ear as he loses his rhythm, now just slamming his hips into yours with all the force he could muster. Your arms are clinging to his neck and he has you trapped against him. White, hot pleasure hits you like a ton of bricks as you squirm on Billy’s lap. His teeth sink into your shoulder as he pumps his hot, sticky cum into your womb. 
He lays back on the couch, letting you rest against his chest.  With a tender touch, he leaned down, pressing a soft kiss on the top of your hair. His lips lingered for a moment. As he pulled back, his fingers began to stroke your hair slowly, each caress a testament to the unspoken passion that simmered between you.
“From now on, that hat stays on you, doll. Let everyone in town see you belong to me."
send me billy thoughts or requests pleaseee :)

When Someone Flirts with You! | Honkai Star Rail
Someone saw this coming and I'm very proud of you for figuring it out. Yeah, I've been getting into star rail and I thought I'd just write since I can't really think of genshin things to write right now lol this is barely edited, so have mercy <3 idk tags rn so please help me out :') ✧ Includes: Dan Heng, Welt, Sampo, Gepard, Jing Yuan, Luocha, Blade ✧ Extra: Luocha and Blade might be ooc, I'm not too familiar with them as of right now. ✧ Come one, come all! See what happens when someone flirts with you in front of your men!
Tumblr media
Dan Heng
Dan Heng is a really private person, he’s not a fan of showing off everything. So he’s not one to flaunt you around, but it’s not hard to tell you’re both in a relationship. He’s around you like
 all the time.
He’s not one to follow around like a helicopter boyfriend, but he’s got an eye on you. If he sees someone bothering you, he’s behind them in an instant.
0/10. Dan Heng’s not super scary so they could ignore him and continue flirting with you. For a moment, he’ll just stand there as he listens to some of the dumb things they’re gonna say. You two make fun of them later for it. But then he hears something along the lines of, “come on, i’ll treat you better.” he don’t like that. 
How is this creep better than him?! They couldn’t even tell you were uncomfortable. Dan Heng will usually place a hand on their shoulder and his grip gets tighter every second the creep is still in front of you. Paired with his glare

10/10 the creep is gone. You sigh in relief and walk to Dan Heng quietly, wrapping your arms around his waist. He immediately hugs back, stroking your hair a little.
“Let’s go somewhere else. I don’t like it here anymore.” You agreed.
Welt
Well, he doesn’t hang around you 24/7, he’s a busy man. But it’s also not hard to tell you’re dating either. Welt isn’t crazy about PDA, but he’ll give you a quick kiss every now and then and often gives you hugs (per your request).
He believes you’re capable of taking care of yourself, so he’s often not paying attention. That doesn’t mean he won’t look over at you every now and then. This time, he just happened to see some creepy creep trying to creep up on you. 
“Are you ok, (y/n)?” Is the first thing he asks when he walks up to you. He will literally ignore the existence of the creep beside him. Usually what happens here is that you’ll nod and he’ll “accidentally” shove the creepy away and urge you to come talk with him and his friends. The creep is usually so confused they walk away. But sometimes- sometimes- they follow.
Welt does NOT like that. I mean it was one thing to not take the hint from your face, but then to stop you when you’re actively trying to leave?
Welt will turn around and just glare at them. Like that silent, “I will kill you” kinda glare. It’s a staring contest for a moment before the creepy creep just kinda turns away and leaves. Sometimes, Welt does have to smack them with his lil cane. Sometimes.
“Anyway, we’re over here. Would you like a drink?”
Sampo
Sampo is all over you, usually. He loves you and the world should know? Sometimes, he can go too far so just let him know. Anyway, since he’s always over you, people know you’re dating him.
Usually at parties and events, he’s hanging off your arm, but sometimes he’s gotta go talk to some of his other friends and acquaintances. He keeps an eye on you.
Here’s the thing, he’ll come up and flirt with you too but try to one up the creep. “You look fine, darling,” - the creep. “You look so beautiful, every star in the sky and the moons pale in comparison.” - Sampo.
0/10. Of course, the creep gets irritated and asks what the hell Sampo is doing. Sampo just gives him a condescending smile and says, “that’s my partner you’re talking to. I’m not gonna let you just creep up on them.” There’s
 a glint in his eyes that’s unnerving. Even you can see it.
69/10. The creep runs off, making some excuse or whatever. Sampo watches them for a minute before turning to you and smiling. You rush to give him a hug and he happily returns it.
“Wanna go home? Seems like that idiot trashed your mood a little.”
Gepard
Gepard is a very shy guy and he’s not one to be all touchy-touchy without you doing it first. He gets all flustered and looks away
 but he’ll lean into your touch.
He usually sticks around you, keeping your attention so no creepies come by, but sometimes he gets pulled away. He always lets you know he’ll be right back and leaves for just a few moments. Enough for a creepy to sneak in >:0
When Gepard notices the creep, he wastes no time walking over to you. “Is everything ok?” He asked, looking at you. If you shook your head, that was it. The captain of the silvermane’s came out!
The first glare is usually a 50/50. Sometimes, the creeps acted all annoyed and walk away, pretending they’re not scared but other times
 they challenge him. Gepard just places a hand on their shoulder and shoves them back. It’s actually surprisingly strong- they’ll fall over sometimes.
10/10, that usually sends them running. On rare occasions there’s that ONE creepy who just stands up and tries to take him on lmao. You know to take a step back because Gepard kinda skips the arresting and just goes to ass kicking. And he’s the shy boyfriend.
“So
 we should go now. Yeah, no, just leave the creep there.”
Jing Yuan
Jing Yuan isn't the most affectionate boyfriend, but he doesn’t mind letting people know you two are together. Depends on your comfort level.
He’s a busy man, so at that fancy event, he can’t always be at your side but he tries to keep you by him. Of course, you decided to go get a drink, he happily agreed. You went off and he kept greeting more officials. You didn’t return, so he looked over and he just saw you turning away from a creep who just grabbed your arm!
Jing Yuan elegantly excuses himself and basically sneaks up behind the guy. He’ll stand there which brings you tons of relief, enough to let the creep ramble and ramble and ramble. “I could take you out to dinner, (nickname you don’t like). I’ll buy you (food you don’t like).” “Actually, they don’t like that. And they don’t like being called that.” The creep jumps away and is standing beside you at that point.
5/10, honestly, some just get scared and leave. There’s the other half though that just kinda scoff and look at you. Before they can even say anything, Jing Yuan grabs them by the shirt and force them to look at him. “Do not speak to them like that. Do not look at them, and don’t even think about them. You leave now or I’ll drag you out myself.”
10/10!!!!!!!!! They are GONE. No sign of them for MILES. Jing Yuan huffs and looks down at you. At this point, everyone’s looking at you two, making you extremely uncomfortable. He’ll stand beside you and pull you close, using that half of his jacket thing to cover you.
“We can leave. I’ll deal with everything else later. Come on.”
Luocha
This man is unpredictable. Sometimes, he’s grabbing your hand to prove your dating, others are just a straight kiss. You don’t mind. Either way, the world knows you two are together.
Luocha doesn’t mind leaving you alone, he’s got confidence in himself and you. That doesn’t mean he’s not there as your backup. Creeps creep on a daily- he’s gotchu. He sees the creep and he’s already walking toward you.
“No!” You exclaimed with a frown, “I'm not interested. Leave me alone.” Luocha didn’t mind scaring the creep off
 but it was when they grabbed you that kinda set him off. “Hey.” Is all he says as he grabs their wrist to shove their hand away. 3/10. SOMETIMES people do get scared off by his demeanor. But there’s always that one. Our favorite.
For those guys, he’ll just get physical. There’s just this switch that goes off when it comes to you. 10/10. They’re either gone or out like a light.
“Come, we should go somewhere else.”
Blade
Lol. First of all, people know you’re dating this dude because you’re still alive while hanging off his arm. He’s not affectionate in public other than some sweet words. “You look nice today.” “I think you did well.” Things like that.
Blade can
 be a helicopter boyfriend because he just has a 6th sense for creepies. You can be doing your own thing and he’s just standing there. Menacingly. There are days where he’s away from you, but he keeps a sharp eye on you. Then he notices the creep.
“Go away.” You say with a huff as you turn away. “Stop!” You yell, trying to pull your hand away. Suddenly, the creep is silent and frozen. You probably know exactly what happened.
You feel your arm come loose and look behind you to see Blade pointing
 well his blade at the creep. He doesn’t say anything and the creep can’t help but just feel the icy fear in their veins. 10/10, Blade doesn’t fail.
“Thank you.” You say with a sigh as you run and hug his arm, looking up at him. Blade sighs and looks down at you, feeling that relief in his chest knowing that you’re fine and right beside him where you should be.
“It’s because you look cute today. Let’s go somewhere else.”

Hey so for Jude Bellingham can you write like Jude cheating on reader, he is very distant with her and she tries to make plans or asks him things like how has ur day been but he either just gives her blunt replies or just completely ignores her. Reader finds out he cheated on her via his phone and she confronts him and she admits it. Then reader leaves him and moves on with someone else (not a footballer just someone random) and Jude regrets what he has done but it is too late. Like pure angst and please make it long! Thank you!
A/n: the timeline on this doesn’t really work but just ignore that
Part 2
Sitting in a restaurant alone waiting for someone to show up is embarrassing. It's even more embarrassing when people know who your boyfriend is and are very clearly judging you and thinking about what might be going on in your personal life. Then the most embarrassing part of it all is having to leave after sitting there for an hour. 
No text no call and no answer. After getting home from the restaurant I stayed up for as long as possible to try and wait for Jude to come home so I could ask him why he didn't show up to the date he planned and invited me on but by 3am he still wasn't home. The next morning he wasn't in bed but he had clearly been home and then left for training but he still hadn't even read the texts I sent him last night. He did post on his Instagram story which explained where he was, he was at a party with all of his friends. I'd love to say that's the first time he's done this but it isn't in fact he's done it countless times in the last few months. 
~~~~~~~~~~
Valentine's Day
Two hours ago I got ready in a cute dress and did my makeup ready to go out to dinner with Jude. He's been so busy recently so we haven't spent much time together but he promised me we'd spend Valentine's Day together, he got us a reservation at my favourite restaurant and told me to dress up. That's exactly what I did now I'm sat here still waiting for him to get home two hours after when he said he'd be home. 
It hurts to be left just waiting I was looking forward to tonight and getting to spend some time together as I've missed having him around. He made this move to Madrid out to be the best thing for us but ever since things just haven't been the same. He's always busy and when he's not he chooses to spend time with his teammates instead which I understand but at the same time he's neglecting me and our relationship. I tried to bring this up but he shut me down and promised to spend more time with me which is how we ended up with this date but clearly it's not that important to him. 
Close to 3 hours later Jude finally came home and looked at me incredibly confused when he saw me all dressed up. 
"Where are you going?" He asked 
"On a date with you remember you said we would go out for dinner because it's Valentine's Day" I said 
"I'm so sorry baby I completely forgot this week has been crazy I promise I'll make it up to you another day but I'm so tired is a movie night instead ok" he said 
"Yeah its ok" I lied 
Birthday 
As always I woke up to an empty bed and Jude having left for training. Today isn't any normal day though it's my birthday so all my friends are coming over and we are going to go out for lunch together then hopefully Jude and I can do something together this evening even if it's just watching something together on the sofa. When I grabbed my phone from my bedside table I had loads of messages from friends and family wishing me a happy birthday and my social media was filled with edits done by Jude's fans which were all so sweet. The only notable missing thing was a text from Jude but that's ok he might've been running late and forgot. 
I forgot about Jude as soon as my friends arrived as they all spoiled me far too much but I had so much fun with them. It was nice to be distracted from real life and stop worrying about when Jude will be home, if he will remember it's my birthday or if he still cares about me at all. Once I got back home Jude's car was already in the driveway so I smiled and happily made my way inside to see him. I wasn't expecting Vini and Eduardo to be over but there they were sat on the sofa playing video games with Jude. 
"Hey y/n happy birthday" Vini said 
"I didn't realise it was your birthday Jude didn't mention it but happy birthday" Eduardo said 
"Thanks guys" I said 
"Where have you been babe?" Jude asked still not saying happy birthday 
"I was with my friends they took me to lunch" I said 
"That sounds fun" Jude said going right back to his game 
His friends tried to leave saying he should spend time with me but he said it was fine and that I wouldn't mind so they stayed. While they all sat down stairs having more fun than I was I did some work with tears streaming down my face. My own boyfriend doesn't care about my birthday his teammates cared more than he did. 
Anniversary 
"Happy anniversary love" I said when I found Jude in the kitchen this morning 
"Happy anniversary" he said 
I tried to give him a kiss but he dodged it and went to start packing his things as he has an away game later today so he's leaving soon. 
"I'm sorry baby I've got to go I'll see you later though" he said as he left leaving me all alone yet again 
~~~~~~~~~~
Today is a day I always like to forget. Both of my parents died in a car accident two years ago today so it's always an emotional day for me and my siblings, we would like to spend it together to distract ourselves but as I'm in Madrid we can't do that. Instead my friends invited themselves over so that I'd have someone with me which made me feel so much better. They came over early so early that Jude was still here as he hadn't left for training yet. He was doing his own thing as the girls all sat with me and let me get out all my emotions now by telling them memories I have with my parents. 
"You know they'd be so proud of you" one of my friends said 
"I just wish they were here to see all the things me and my siblings have done all thanks to their constant encouragement" I sniffled tears still falling down my face 
"Why are you crying babe?" Jude asked as he walked down the stairs 
"Just thinking about my parents it's the anniversary of their death so I'm just a bit emotional" I said 
"I'm glad the girls are here to make you feel better then I'll see you later ok" he said 
With that he left and my friends all looked at me with an expression I didn't quite understand.
"How long has he been like that?" My best friend asked 
"Like what" I questioned 
"Like you don't matter he didn't even hug you before he left even after you told him why you were upset which he should know anyway dates like this are important for partners to remember" she said 
"I mean it's been a good few months he missed our Valentine's Day dinner he didn't wish me a happy birthday until like 5pm and we didn't do anything on our anniversary" I said finally thinking about how badly he's been treating me
"Girl he doesn't deserve you he's taking you for granted and you don't deserve that" one of the girls said 
"I hate to say this but you need to break up with him clearly he's given up on your relationship and now I might be wrong but wrong but it seems to me like he's found someone else" another said
They were right for months now I've been at the bottom of his priority list and he's nowhere near the Jude I used to know and love. There is no affection there anymore it's like the love we once had is gone. He also has definitely been distant and he's never home so there is a possibility that he could be cheating on me. That's a thought that I'd put in the back of my mind and didn't want to think about but now that someone else that has mentioned it I can't let the thought go. Whether he's cheating or not things definitely aren't how they used to be and I need to get out of this relationship before it's too late. The girls all offered their support and said I can stay with them for as long as I need which gave me the confidence to actually talk to Jude later today. 
When Jude arrived home all the girls left and they wished me good luck which I definitely need as I'm nervous to actually have this conversation even though it needs to be done. Jude went straight to get in the shower so I decided to look at his phone because he told me the password but I have never used it as I trusted him at least until now. It took just seconds of looking for me to find texts between him and this one girl who he had clearly been seeing for months now. He kept saying he would break up with me but the time wasn't right yet and that he wasn't in love with me anymore which hurt to see. I wanted to cry but I held back my tears and instead just sent myself screenshots of everything and then deleted the evidence so he wouldn't know that I knew. 
After his shower Jude took ages to come back downstairs but when he finally did he was looking at his phone and smiling it made me wonder if he was talking to her the girl he'd apparently fallen for. He quickly noticed me staring at him and he just stared back not having a clue what was going on. 
"Jude we need to talk" I said 
"Oh ok is everything alright?" He asked 
"I'm just gong to say it I know what you've been doing and don't lie to me I have screenshots I just want to know when you fell out of love and why you did this instead of just ending things" I said barely holding back tears 
"I don't know it all just happened I'm sorry I should've handled this better I didn't want to hurt you but clearly I haven't done a good job of that" he said 
"Yeah you really have hurt me I should've known when you forgot about our valentines reservations but I was foolish and believed that you were just busy now I know you were with another girl" I said 
"I'm sorry" he said 
"I don't believe you Jude if you were sorry you wouldn't have let this go on for so long it's safe to say we are over I wish you well but please don't try and contact me again I need to just move on" I said 
With that I gathered my things and just left. I left my key, the memories and what felt like half my heart but it had to be done I had to get out of there before I got hurt any more. It's time to move on and start a new life with people around me who truly care about me. 
~~~~~~~~~~
1 year later 
"Come on amor let's go" Carlos called from downstairs 
"Coming" I said running down the stairs 
"Oh wow you look gorgeous" Carlos said 
"Thank you you look good too" I said 
He kissed my cheek and grabbed my hand so we could head out to the car that was outside to pick us up. Just a few days ago Carlos won the French open so we are going out to celebrate. I met Carlos not long after I broke up with Jude I wasn't even looking to date but I just happened to meet him on a night out with my friends and we just clicked. He understood that I wasn't ready to date properly but he didn't give up on me so when I was ready we went on a date and the rest is history. My plan definitely wasn't to date another athlete in fact I wanted to just have a normal life and date a normal guy but I couldn't just let Carlos go and I'm glad I didn't. We have been together officially for 6 months now and they have been the best 6 months of my life he always treats me right and he makes it known how much he loves me. 
Carlos has a lot of friends in Madrid so he decided to come here and celebrate his win with me and my friends as well as his before he goes back home to be with his family. There wasn't really any time to prepare anything so we are all just meeting at a club in town that isn't just open to the public so there shouldn't be lots of people there. All our friends were already there when we arrived as we got caught in a bit of traffic but they didn't seem to mind our lateness they congratulated Carlos on his win and we all went inside. 
As we walked down the stairs all my friends turned to me at once and I wondered what was going on for a second until I saw what they had seen. Jude was right there along with a few of his teammates. I haven't seen him since our breakup which is somewhat of a miracle seeing as I still live and work in Madrid and he has become part of the city. I knew one day we'd meet again I was just hoping it wouldn't be in a day like today I don't want to be thinking about him or to talk to him while celebrating Carlos as tonight shouldn't be about me or my past relationship. Carlos knows everything that happened so once he saw Jude his hand reached for mine and he gave it a comforting squeeze which made me feel a little bit better. The thing is I don't miss Jude at all I'm so much happier now but what he did still hurts me so seeing him for the first time since is a bit painful. 
"We can go somewhere else if you want" Carlos said 
"No it's ok tonight is your night plus he shouldn't affect my life now that's the past you are my present and future" I said 
"Ok as long as you're sure but you are sticking by my side all night" he said 
Jude's POV
"Is that y/n?" Vini asked 
Him saying that caught my attention so I looked in the same direction as him and there she was with all her friends and a guy by her side. I recognised the guy as Carlos Alcaraz the tennis player who just won the French open and a the guy y/n has been dating for at least the last few months. I found that out when late at night after we lost a big game I stalked her Instagram and saw a photo of them together on her private account that she forgot to remove me from. Since that night I have kept an eye on her Instagram I usually check it at least once a week to see what she's been doing and how happy she is without me. 
Since the night that she broke up with me I regretted making all the dumb choices I made that led to that point. Within days I broke things off with the other girl I was seeing and I have been alone ever since I just can't bring myself to see anyone else because they aren't y/n. It sounds stupid because I'm the one that ruined everything I'm the reason she's with Carlos and not me but she was the one I just didn't realise how much I loved her until she was gone. My mum has always told me not to take things for granted as once they are gone you'll realise their true value and that's exactly what I did with y/n I didn't realise just how important she was to me until I made some stupid decisions and let her go. 
I watched her with Carlos for a while and she seemed genuinely happy which made me realise that she hadn't been that happy with me for a long while before we broke up. It was clear to see that she loved him and I could tell that he loved her too because he looked at her the way I did when we first got together. It hurt to see her so happy with someone else because I know I could've had that but now I won't get to share any moment like that with her ever again. I deserve everything that has come to me I made bad choices and as much as I regret them now it won't change anything. 
I have to let her go because for her to be happy I need to not be in her life as much as that hurts. They say if you love her let her go and that's what I need to do let the one go because as much as she might've been the one for me I'm not the one for her.

teasing
Tumblr media
barça femeni x teen!reader
request: here & here
A/N: I bought FIFA23 today cuz i found it for $34, like damn. YES. PLEASE. In the basket 😌 I can now play other games other than hogwarts legacy and forza
TW: coarse language
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
As soon as you saw the message, you knew it was over. Your phone was in the hands of Ona who was looking at edits of herself on TikTok with Pina. You attempt to take the phone back, but it’s too late and they’ve already run out of the recreational room to the field where some of the other girls kicking are kicking a ball around.
“Y/N’S GOT A GIRLFRIEND, Y/N’S GOT A GIRLFRIEND!” Ona screams running and kicking the ball out of the way.
Jana and Bruna immediately rush over stealing the phone and opening messages.
“Guys, it’s nothing. Please stop.” You plead, hoping they’ll drop it. Jana looks up and narrows her eyes at you.
“It’s not nothing if this mystery girl has a HEART next to her name. We will not drop this until you tell ussss.” She drags out. You shake your head, before ultimately giving in.
“Fine, it’s just a crush ok? Now please, give me back my phone.” They seem satisfied and you thought it was over until Salma walks over.
“Careful now, don’t push us to the side when you get the girl.” You groan, walking away and flipping them off in the process. Noting that the next time you give someone your phone, to put it on do not disturb.
You look down at the message, finally being able to read it.
‘I just asked my mum and she said I could go! Could you send the ticket through please ;)’ You find yourself blushing as you walk through the doors back into the building, ignoring the curious glances sent your way.
- - - - -
Over the next couple of days, the teasing became more and more, and you only got more and more frustrated. Even Patri and Asisat joining in. The Nigerian didn’t really comment though, only some remarks and laughing, but it was more funny to you than the pestering of the others.
You didn’t realise that the girls had in fact read the message, you thought they were only focused on the heart next to her name. How wrong you were.
It was after warming-up, everyone was in the locker-room awaiting the speeches from Marta and Jona when Ona came and sat next to you, Claudia on the other side.
“Will we see mystery girl with a heart next to her name today?” Ona says, smirking. You groan.
“You two better not do anything I mean it.” You warn, wanting to be done with everything.
“Come onnn.” Claudia drags out. “I want to meet her.”
“And I don’t want you guys to meet her. Simple.” You say, standing up and walking towards where the tactics were about to be said.
- - - - -
The game is a good one, a 6-0 win and you play for about 30 minutes. It was comfortable and you laugh to yourself, thinking about how the team only had six subs, and got six goals.
You walk around, greeting and signing things for fans when you see her. The one the girls have been teasing about all week. You smile and hug her.
“Sorry
 I’m a bit sweaty.” You blush looking away.
“No, no, it’s ok.” She laughs.
“So uhh, how did you like the game?” You look back up smiling.
“It was a good one, nice assist by the way.” Again, a blush crawls up your neck and to your cheeks. Then, out of nowhere Jana and Bruna are next to you and you look back to see Ona, Patri and Claudia looking at you.
“Maya, this is Jana and Bruna. My teammates and friends.” You introduce, nervous.
“So this is the one with the heart next to her name?” Jana says smugly, before you can object Bruna speaks.
“Found yourself a good one Y/N!”
“Please
 not right now. Go away.” You sigh, looking apologetically at Maya who looks slightly uncomfortable.
“Fine, but if you need ANYTHING we will be right over there.” Jana points to where most of the girls are cluttered together, in the cold. She starts to walk away while Bruna stays.
“Bruna what do you want-“ You’re cut off as she manages to lift up your shirt and runs away with it. Back to where you see the other girls are laughing.
“I’m sorry for that, uhh” I look down and feel goosebumps forming all over my body.
“I think I will go. You should probably get warm, it’s cool out here.” You nod slowly, embarrassed by how this turned out.
“Thanks for coming though, hopefully we meet again?” You ask.
“We’ll see.” She smirks. “Bye Y/N.” Maya then turns around and leaves as you sigh for what felt like the millionth time this week. Feeling deflated, you walk back and don’t watch where you’re going.
You bump into Irene out of everyone.
“Lo siento.” You mumble.
“It’s alright- hey what’s wrong?” She grips your forearm assessing your face.
“Nothing, it’s fine.”
“Nena, don’t lie to me. What happened? Where’s your shirt? Aren’t you cold?” She says looking around.
“Just Bruna and Jana being annoying again, don’t worry.” You half-smile.
“What did they do this time? I know they’ve been teasing you about some crush. What is it?”
“Well, that said crush was here and I was talking to her and they came over. I told them to go away then Bruna took my shirt off of me and ran. They completely embarrassed me! I really like her and I just
” You don’t finish the sentence, tears welling in your eyes as your voice breaks.
“I’m gonna go home, bye Irene.” She tries to call out for you but you ignore her retreating to the change rooms and take a hot shower, to ease your thoughts.
Immediately afterwards, you notice the sympathetic looks from your older teammates, but choose to ignore them walking out of the room.
You get in your car, and drive away back to your house where no one can bother you. You were only 17, still finishing school and you live right next door to Irene. Who makes sure you have your shit together, despite objecting to it many times.
Unbeknownst to you, there was a lengthy conversation going on in the locker room after you had left
- - - - -
Irene’s voice blares through the room startling nearly everyone.
“Claudia, Patri, Jana, Bruna and Ona. You are all staying behind and we are going to have a little talk, got it? Salma you can also stay.” She says, everyone else goes back to doing their thing and immediately the girls know they’re in for it.
Everyone has filed out of the room, bar Alexia, Frido and those told to stay.
“I’m guessing you all know why I have you here, sí?”
They nod their heads.
“So, enlighten me why our teammate and friend has gone home very upset.” Irene makes a point to look at Bruna. But, it’s Salma who speaks up.
“They embarrassed her? I would just like to say I thought it was a stupid idea, I was right since we are standing here right now.” She folds her arms, trying to look tough.
“You may not have been this time, but you ALL have been teasing her all week. She had tears in her eyes and couldn’t even look at me. So each one of you will apologise.” Then Claudia speaks up.
“What about Asisat?” Frido answers the striker.
“She did much less damage, you will apologise and that’s it. That’s all you have to do.” The girls nod their heads meekly and then Alexia speaks up.
“Jana, Bruna. I expected better from both of you. Let this be a lesson for when things go too far. Patri, aren’t you old enough to not mingle with a teenagers love life?” Her jaw drops and solemnly nods.
“Ok then, if anyone is going to apologise. The best time is right now. Follow Irene and get it over with so she can’t hold something against you for a longer time than necessary.” Alexia finishes and then walks out with Frido.
- - - - -
You’re interrupted from your movie by knocking on your door. It’s 10pm, so options were limited. You find out when you open it that it’s Jana, Bruna, Ona, Salma, Patri and Claudia.
“What are you guys doing here?” You ask skeptically.
“Well we felt bad, and after a scolding from Irene we thought we’d come apologise. Sorry that we embarrassed you in front of if your crush, and I’m sorry I took your shirt off.” Bruna says with an apologetic smile.
“It’s ok, thanks for stopping by.” You knew it was genuine, so you felt better now.
“We got you a little something though.” Ona states, matter-of-factly. Then she gives you the bag she’s holding which has 2 Winnie the pooh plushies (one of Eeyore and one of pooh reading a book to piglet), along with different snacks.
“This is
 thanks guys. Thanks a lot.” You take a look at the plushies, staring at how cute the one is where Pooh is reading to piglet. (i have this irl if anyone wants a photo đŸ€·)
“So, did you get the girl amiga?” Jana asks. You nod.
“We’re gonna go out some other time, not sure when. But yeah should be fun.” You don’t know why you told them that but you have a little feeling that they won’t tease you about it this time. Not if Irene can stop it anyways.
“Well, we will get leaving. See you at recovery then Y/N.” Salma says.
“Bye guys, thanks again!” They all walk out and Irene walks in.
“Looks like my plan worked huh?” You smile.
“Thanks but really, I was fine.” She quirks an eyebrow.
“Really? Because you were almost crying Cariño. I just came to make sure they stuck to their word, and they did.” You nod.
“As for those chocolates, no eating until cheat day alright?” You rolls your eyes.
“Fine, can I finish my movie now?” She laughs.
“Sure, I’ll get back now, be safe. I love you, the team cares and if you are ever feeling down again. Or feel sad because of what teammates say. Do not hesitate to tell me.” You nod and whisper and thank you as she kisses the top of your forehead and leaves. You love this team, you really do.

Mockingjay - Part 3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hi guys :)
Chapter 3 is here!
I'm sorry if there is some part for the Games who isn't translated correctly, but like I already said English isn't my first language and I only watched the movies or read the book in my native language.
I hope you will like it, please let me know ♄
Chapter before
Tumblr media
Ona is nervous. She’s walking around in the room where Leila and his assistant have dressed and prepared her for the interview who will be aired everywhere in Panem. She hates the wait before something big, she’s really stressed about this interview too, but she hates that she has to wait before going to sit in that damn chair.
They are passing by District and the only moment when she stops walking in the room was when she saw Lucy. She’s wearing a beautiful green dress, and she looks perfect. Her hair, her smile
 Everything in her is perfect.
Lucy talked about her life in the 4, her family and her brother who won her edition of the Games. Ona is like captivated by Lucy, so much that she doesn’t hear Alexia entering the room. The blonde looks at Ona with amusement for some seconds, arms crossed on her chest before talking softly, not wanting to scare the younger one.
“We have to do something about your crush.”
Even with Alexia’s precautions, Ona almost jumps out of her skin. She turns to Alexia, frowning, a hand on her heart.
“Are you trying to kill me before the Games?”
“No” Alexia chuckles.
She comes in front of Ona to put in place some hair behind her ear.
“You look beautiful, as always” Alexia smiles at her. “So, it was Lucy Bronze you were looking at, all this time?”
“Stop it” Ona mumbles with red cheeks.
“Why? It’s cute” Alexia says with a teasing smile. “Plus, you have good tastes. She looks amazing.”
“She does” Ona says thoughtfully, looking at the screen again.
But they passed to someone else, and she frowns while looking at the boy from the 5 talking about his qualities. Ona turns her gaze quickly now, looking at Alexia again.
“What does your girlfriend look like?” the brunette asks with curiosity.
“She’s smaller than me. Brown hair, brown eyes
 And the most beautiful smile in Panem.”
Ona smiles softly. The way Alexia smiles when she talks about her girlfriend is really cute. Ona never asked her about her name, Alexia seems at ease with her relationship, but Ona doesn’t know how much she is. Homosexuality isn’t a thing a lot of people like, at least in the different Districts. It looks like it’s not so bad in the Capitol though.
“I think she would have loved you a lot too” Alexia adds, before looking at her watch. “We have to go now, or you will be late.”
Ona nods and lets Alexia pass a friendly arm around her shoulder, taking extra care not to wrinkle her clothes. Ona’s mind goes to Lucy one more time. They haven’t really talked since the day Lucy takes her to her quarters. They only smile at each other when they cross eyes, both not wanting for their partner not to mingle in their relationship. It isn’t even a friendship, but Ona feels her heart flutter every time.
“I know the situation isn’t ideal, but you still can try to get closer to her, no?”
“How?” Ona snorts. “Have you seen her? She exceptional and I don’t even know if she’s interested in girls”
“Yeah, I’ve seen her. And I see you too. You are pretty amazing yourself you know?”
Ona rolls her eyes and doesn't answer anything. In her eyes, Alexia isn’t impartial. The blonde doesn’t add anything, letting Ona’s mind go in what she just said. Once again, Tony is already here when Ona arrives, he’s waiting with one of Leila's assistants. Once again, Leila made her magic work.
“Alright, I have to go” Alexia says to Ona. “I’ll be in the public, if you are stressed or scared, just focus on me, ok?”
Ona nods softly, ignoring the others' gaze on them. Alexia smiles at her and hugs her.
“You will be great. Don’t be scared of being yourself. People will love you.”
Ona smiles softly at her and takes a big breath when she finds herself alone with Tony. The boy seems to be a little anxious too. He was a little resentful towards Ona after she chose not to come with him for training, but Ona decided to ignore it. He comes back to her very quickly anyway.
Tony is the first to pass, of course. They always present the boy first; Ona doesn’t really understand why. She was hoping to cross Lucy’s path after her interview, but it looks like the people who have already done the interview leave by another door. Tony seems to handle the interview pretty easily; he doesn’t seem stressed at all suddenly. Good for him, Ona thinks.
Some minutes later, it was her turn. Ona takes a big breath when the presenter calls her name. During her walk to the couch in the middle of the television set, Ona tries to spot Alexia in the crowd. She finally sees her just before being in front of the presenter, sitting next to Leila. Alexia winks at her and Ona greets the presenter with one of her brightest smiles. It’s now or never.
“Ona! It’s so nice to finally meet you!”
The presenter has bright but deep blue eyes in a banana hairstyle. He’s wearing make-up, like every single person in the Capitol after all. Ona asked Leila not to paint her face with make-up, she’s wearing some but not too much. It’s pretty simple. She likes it.
She has a small chat about her life in District 8, her family and her friends. She tensed a little bit when she heard him asking the next question.
“So
 There is a question everyone here is asking themselves
 You are talking a lot about your parents and your brother, but not about someone waiting for you in District 8. Aren’t you in a relationship?”
“No” Ona answer softly. “I’m single.”
“With a pretty face like you? I can’t believe it.”
Ona’s eyes went to Alexia, who nods almost imperceptibly at her. Ona swallows her saliva with a little difficulty.
“I had someone, some months ago. It was my first relationship and my first love.”
“What happened to him?”
The presenter seems really interested in what Ona has to say. He looks a little like an uncle who wants to hear all of your secrets.
“To her” Ona corrects gently.
“Oh, her. Sorry.”
He smiles at her, urging her to continue her confidences. Well, if we can call that confidences if thousands of people are listening to her.
“Two years ago, her name was raffled for the Games. She died in the arena here, in the Capitol.”
There is a beam of silence, no one was expecting this revelation. Ona looks one more time to Alexia, who is still looking right at her. They don’t look at each other for too long though, with professionalism, the presenter finally starts to talk again.
“If I remember correctly, the female tribute of the 8, two years ago, was Jana.”
“Yeah. It was her.”
“And what is your feeling about you being where she was? Do you want to take revenge for her?”
“No” Ona shakes her, softly frowning. “It would be useless; the same people aren’t here, and they only did what they had to do to survive. Jana
 She was a dreamer, the sweetest and softest girl ever. She was my sunshine back to the 8. I still think about her every day.”
Ona looks at the hand the presenter puts in her arm, in a soft gesture probably to give her some reconfort. Is it fake or is it real? Ona doesn’t really know.
“Do you have something material in memory from her?”
“Not here” Ona shakes her head one more time. “I left everything in District 8. I thought it would be better for our parents to have them.”
The presenter smiles at her, with the same friendly uncle look as earlier.
“It’s very thoughtful of you. But I know that Capital keeps some things belonging to the Tributes for several years after they come here. Would you want me to find something for you?”
“It would be amazing” Ona smiles.
Her heart beat a little faster at that idea. She can’t say that she’s still in love with Jana, it would be weird. Jana is dead, she isn’t here anymore. But it doesn’t stop Ona to think about it every day anyway.
“I promise I will do everything to do it.”
“Thank you very much.” Ona gives him a new bright smile.
She’s touched, which is probably stupid from her. She doesn’t know if it’s just television and show. She probably won’t see something belonging to Jana, but she likes the idea.
They hug when it’s time for Ona to finish the interview and she greets the crowd with a wave before going behind the curtains once again. She breathes with relief there, feeling relieved and exhausted at the same time. Tony isn’t here anymore, and Ona follows slowly the floor before facing a door. She doesn’t have to open it, someone does it for her.
Two Peacekeepers frame her immediately, taking her in the room she was waiting before coming on set. There, she sits down on the couch, waiting for something. She doesn’t know what, the Peacekeepers haven't said anything to her before leaving.
Alexia will come for her some minutes later, hugging her at length before taking her back to their quarters.
********
Several hours later, after tossing and turning for hours in her bed, Ona decides to get out of her room. She tried to take another shower, but it didn't work. Even the “tea” they give the Tributes to help them sleep isn’t working.
She puts a short and a hoodie on her underwear and slides her feet in the tap shoes lent by the Capitol. She needs to breathe some fresh air, she almost hasn’t since she came here a week ago. There is a place called a garden, which is in fact more like a patio. She went there several times with Alexia or Tony, but they only are allowed twenty minutes per day.
They aren’t authorized to leave their quarters during the night, but she still can pretend to have a panic attack if someone catches her. It wouldn’t be totally wrong though; Ona is pretty sure that her troubles to breathe right now are linked to her difficulty to sleep. In District 8 the air wasn’t maybe very healthy, but she still can breathe fresh air every day.
That patio being in the seven floors, Ona chooses to take the stairs to go there. Like this, she won’t take the risk to wake someone up. She doesn’t see anyone during her walk to the garden, and she’s relieved to see that there is no one here.
Sighing softly, she lies down on one of the deck chairs here. The sky is dark and the more she looks, the more she’s able to watch more stars.
She doesn’t know how much time she stays there, finally feeling her breathing becoming calmer and deeper. She feels better now.
Until she hears some noise coming from behind her and the characteristic sound of an automatic door opening. Ona doesn’t have time to hide, she just has time to turn to face the person coming for her. She was waiting to see a Peacekeeper ready to beat her, but no.
It’s Lucy, who seems scared to face someone here, before realizing that it’s Ona.
“What the hell are you doing here?” Lucy whispers.
“And you?” Ona whispers back.
Lucy's eyes are scanning the place, probably looking for someone else. But there isn’t anyone here, Ona could have said it to Lucy.
“I couldn’t sleep” Lucy finally says.
“Me neither”
They look at each other before Lucy sighs and sits in another deck chair. She’s wearing a grey flannel ensemble with the hood on her head.
“Why can’t you sleep?” Ona asks casually.
It wasn’t probably the question you ask the crush you almost never talked to, but she does it anyway. Lucy seems surprised by the question of Ona, raising her gaze on her. Just when Ona was saying that she can not answer her question, Lucy opens her mouth to answer.
“I don’t know. I was thinking a lot about the trainings, the shows
 Everything we went through since we are here.”
Ona nods, understanding perfectly. She doesn’t know how things go for the other Tributes and the other Districts. She has a great team around her, protecting her as much as they can. She’s not to be pitied, but it doesn’t mean that the traumatism isn’t here. She’s preparing for her own death. It’s a strange feeling.
“I saw your interview” Lucy suddenly says. “It was
 It touched me.”
It’s Ona turns to raise her gaze on Lucy. She looks at her eyes for some seconds, before shrugging softly.
“Thanks. It was probably the last time I would be able to honor her.”
“She’s lucky.”
“Lucky?”
Ona’s frowning. She doesn’t understand why Lucy might be thinking that, especially knowing the way Jana died.
“To have her memory kept alive by someone like you. People here in the Capitol or in the career District forget the dead Tributes very quickly. It won’t hurt to have someone talking about someone who was here several years ago, just remembering them to people.”
Ona nods, finally understanding what Lucy wants to say. She might admit that she was a little mad about that comment, before Lucy can explain herself. She lets her body relax in understanding, looking at the sky again.
“Were your parents okay with your relationship?” Lucy asks softly.
Ona keeps looking at the stars for several seconds, before looking at Lucy again. It seems like Lucy realized the indiscretion of her question when Ona and her cross their gazes.
“Oh. I’m sorry if it was too straight-forward, of course you don’t need to answer that question” Lucy blunders, and this is the first time Ona sees her uncomfortable. “It’s just like
 I don’t know, I feel like we are old friends or something. I’m sorry it was stupid of me.”
Trying to ignore the pleasant warmth in her body when she hears Lucy, Ona decides to get her out of her misery pretty quickly. They aren’t talking a lot; this encounter wasn’t even planned at all. It’s the first time they are talking alone like this. She doesn’t want Lucy to feel uncomfortable.
“I don’t mind your question” Ona assures her.
If they were next to each other, she would probably have put her hand on her leg to support her words. But Lucy is too far from her.
“They knew about Jana and me, and they were ok” Ona begins, smiling softly when she remembers some scene. “Jana and I knew each other from when we were little. I don’t know when things changed or if it was always here. But one day at dinner, my Mom just asked me if Jana was my friend or my girlfriend. I answer that it was my girlfriend, and they just go with it. They never made a big thing with it.”
Lucy nods softly, lost in her thoughts.
“It’s maybe the healthier way to go with it” she says slowly.
“I think so too. I feel like I could have come home with a boy or a girl and they wouldn’t mind. At least I was with someone, not like my brother” Ona rolls her eyes.
“There is a story behind that” Lucy smirks.
Ona laughs softly, shaking her head softly. Lucy was right, this conversation feels like they know each other for years, not only several days. She likes this feeling.
“Him and my best friend have always been in love, I think. They are both too stubborn to see it or maybe they don’t want to do anything because of me, I don’t know. But it’s really painful to watch.”
Lucy smiles at Ona’s rumble, not seeming to mind at all. She has a small smile and some tenderness in her face while looking at Ona. The younger one realizes it and is distracted about it for some seconds, before asking a question too.
“And you? What about your friends and family?”
“Well
”
Lucy opens her mouth to talk, but quickly closes her when they both hear a noise coming from the floor. They both turn in the direction, Lucy even getting up a little.
"Did you take the lift to come here?” Lucy whispers.
“No, I took the stairs. I didn’t want for anyone to hear me” Ona whispers back.
Finally, there isn’t another noise or someone coming. But there is a tension that wasn’t here before. Lucy finally turns in Ona’s direction, looking hesitant.
“Maybe we should go back to our room.”
“I think you’re right”
Ona sighs a little when she gets up from her chair, looking one last time at the stars. She smiles at Lucy when the girl lets her pass before her, turning in her direction when they are at the stairs. Lucy must go down while she has to go up.
“It was nice, talking to you” Ona mumbles, blushing softly.
“It was” Lucy confirms with a smirk. “See you tomorrow?”
“Yeah. See you tomorrow.”
With a wink, Lucy left her to go on the stairs. Ona watches her before going back to her room. She manages to sneak inside before being caught by anyone. Her bed is warm after the cold outside, and the feeling is amazing. She can’t stop smiling, thinking about her moment with Lucy. Her crush won’t probably pass soon, but she doesn’t mind. Lucy seems to be a very nice girl, not only a pretty face. And a hot body.
********
The training goes pretty great. Alexia is able to come to see them trains from time to time and is able to see what their qualities are. For Ona, she realizes that she has a big facility for climbing. Her small body is still strong and agile, and she doesn't have trouble passing from one place to another.
So, for her showcase, Alexia proposed to her to impress the jury with that. They designed a parkour with trees that Ona crossed in a record time. For fun, some members of the jury tried it, just to see they are way slower than Ona. They give her a 7 for that. Tony got an 8, just like Lucy. Those are pretty good notes.
But it’s not what filled Ona with happiness those past days. After her encounter with Lucy in the “garden”, she decides to go back the night before. Lucy was already there, waiting for her like it was planned for them to meet again.
They talk a lot here, about anything and everything. The training, their Partner, their team or what is on their mind at the time. Ona loves those moments together and how they are getting close to each other. They both decided to hide their friendship though, not wanting to become a target for the other tributes.
On the four nights, they are even on the same desk chair, partially hidden by a big flower box and a massive palm tree.
“You look tired tonight” Lucy says.
They already are here for one hour, talking about the food from home they are missing for the last ten minutes.
“I am. I usually sleep more than that” Ona admits.
“We can raincheck for tomorrow if you prefer”
Something in Lucy’s voice might make her think that Lucy doesn’t like that idea, but it bothers Ona to imagine wasting some time alone with Lucy.
“No. I like those moments” Ona frowns, looking at the older girl. “Those are the moments I love the most during my day”
Lucy giggles softly, rolling her eyes.
“I would be sad if you would rather fight than see me.”
Ona smiles only, looking at the stars again. With time, she learned that Lucy knows almost all the stars and constellations. Her grandfather told her when she was younger, he was a fishman and used the sky to go home at night with his boat. It’s almost the only things Lucy told her about her family, but Ona never pushed her to talk about them. She knows that it might hide something, and she doesn’t want to make Lucy uncomfortable.
“I heard that they let us call someone from home” Lucy whispers after some minutes of silence.
“What?” Ona says, her heart beating faster. “How do you know that?”
“I’ve got my sources.”
“Will it be filmed?”
“I think, they don’t have any advantage to offer that otherwise.”
Ona stays silent, thinking of who she would call. She thought about her parents and brother, of course. Her brother might be a good call, he probably could give her some advice. But hearing her mother’s voice for the last time is something she wants too. But on the other hand, she doesn’t want to choose between her parents, she feels like it’s unfair for her dad.
“Who would you call?” Ona asks Lucy.
The older girl stays silenced, looking at the stars. Ona almost believes that Lucy hasn’t heard her and was about to ask her question again, just when Lucy opens her mouth to answer.
“I don’t know. Maybe my brother.”
She seems sad with this answer. Ona frowns, turning on her side to have a better look at Lucy. The moon makes her face shine softly, just like her beautiful eyes. Ona feels like she can look at her all day without being tired of it. But she knows she has to be discreet not to pass for a creep.
“And you?”
Lucy gives her the question back, which isn’t surprising. Ona frowns softly trying to figure out her different possibilities.
“Maybe my best friend” Ona finally answers.
Lucy hums softly, still looking at the stars. Ona takes advantage of it to keep looking at her. She tries to oblige her eyes not to fall too long and too often on Lucy’s lips. Her crush gets stronger every day and she doesn’t know how long she can keep it under control.
“You seem sad” Ona finally says.
It strangely makes Lucy smile and she turns her head towards Ona. She seems to realize only now how close they are from each other.
“My family is a little bit complicated, that’s all. Don’t worry about me.”
Ona frowns once again, keep looking at Lucy. She has gained a little confidence since she and Lucy started hanging out together.
“Would you listen to me if I told you something like that?”
“Probably not” Lucy laughs softly.
Ona doesn’t answer anything, she just raises both of her eyebrows and turns her head to look at the sky again. It’s a nice day today, the sky is clear. Yesterday they weren’t able to see any of the stars.
“Do you find it strange? That we get along so well considering the circumstances?” Ona asks suddenly.
“No. I think we’ll get along too if we have met somewhere else. Or in another life
”
“In another life
” Ona repeat for herself.
She feels sad, suddenly. She hasn’t felt that way since the beginning and she has trouble explaining this sudden wave of feeling. It is almost intoxicating and like this other day in the car, she has trouble breathing correctly. She tries to settle her breathing not to alert Lucy.
“Hey, are you ok?”
Try again, Ona.
She nods, but despite that, Lucy stands a little on the chair, not to be lying anymore. She sits and faces Ona, putting a hand on her stomach. Ona feels shivers despite herself, and she almost hates her body to react that way while she’s not far from a panic attack.
“Look at me” Lucy says softly. “And breathe with me.”
She takes Ona’s hand with the one she hasn’t on her stomach, just to put it on her stomach too. Looking deep in Lucy’s eyes, Ona finally manages to breathe normally again after several minutes.
“You’re okay” Lucy keeps repeating.
It’s not totally true, but Ona doesn’t answer anything. Right now, with Lucy, she is ok. She feels safe. She has to focus on this.
“Thanks” Ona finally whispers.
“Anytime.”
There is a sincerity behind Lucy’s words which can seem strange because of their situation. But Ona wants to believe her.
They look at each other for several times, before Lucy opens her mouth to say something.
“Ona, I- “
She’s cute by a big noise, making both of them jump in the air. They both know that it sounds like the end of their meeting for tonight.
“We better go” Lucy says.
Ona groans for any answer, sitting on the chair too. She doesn’t want to, but she knows it’s better for them. Once again, they won’t do anything to them here, but they can easily make things look like an accident.
“I’m going first” Lucy decides.
Ona nods and sighs, standing up too. She watches when Lucy turns around to look at her again and froze when the dark-haired girl leans on her to put a kiss on her cheek. Pretty close from her lips.
“See you tomorrow night”
And then, she’s not here anymore. Ona needs several seconds to come back to reality and finally leave the garden too. She goes to her quarter silently, lost in her thoughts. She wasn’t expecting to see someone in her bedroom when she arrives, so much that she misses the silhouette of the person here.
“Where the fuck were you?!”
Ona jumps out of her skin and jumps so much that she knocks her head against the door of the room. The lights go on and Alexia is standing in the middle of the room, arm crossed and a very angry expression on her face.
“When Tony told me that you were leaving your room in the middle of the night, I didn’t want to believe him. I told myself that you weren’t this stupid and unconscious. You better have to have a good explanation, Ona.”
Tony. Of course he will open his damn mouth. And how does he know that Ona was leaving her room? That’s pretty strange in Ona’s opinion.
“How does he know that?” Ona frowns.
“That wasn’t my point here.”
Alexia seems really furious. Ona swallows her saliva with difficulty and shrugs, suddenly not able to look at her Mentor. She’s not screaming but she’s talking so coldly that Ona would have preferred the first possibility.
“I’m fighting for you, Ona. I try to make you look good for sponsors and attract good attention to you. But if people learn that you don’t comply with the rules here, you are a lost case. We don’t laugh with rules in the Capitol. If you do bad things, it’s not only you who will have something to repair, but your family too. And if they know I protected you, they will go for my family.”
It suddenly attracts Ona’s attention again. She never thought that they could go after her family for something she did. She’s suddenly scared, and Alexia is probably easily seeing that on her face.
“Please, don’t say anything to the Leaders.”
“I’m asking you one last time, Ona. Where were you?”
Ona bites her lip. She doesn’t want to drag Lucy into her problems. She can’t believe that Tony snitched like this.
“I was in the garden. It’s where I go” Ona finally answers.
“Alone?”
There is another silence, while Ona thinks again about telling the truth or not. She doesn’t want to lose Alexia’s trust, but she cares so much for Lucy.
“I don’t want her to have any problem” Ona finally whispers.
“I won’t tell anyone” Alexia says.
Still chewing her lip, Ona raises her eyes again on Alexia. She wasn’t able to realize it, but Alexia’s gaze softened those last seconds. She seems happy to hear the truth and Ona saying it. Maybe Alexia already knows everything.
“I was with Lucy”
Alexia looks at her for several seconds and sighs finally, before pinching her nose.
“Teenagers” she grumbles before looking at Ona again. “Go to bed.”
She passes next to Ona to leave the room. Ona feels uneasy. She hates conflict, fights and arguments. She hates the fact that Alexia might be disappointed about her, or even upset.
“Alexia
”
The blonde was closing the door behind her but still slid her head through the gap of the door. She looks at Ona with her hazel eyes and Ona has trouble looking at her while talking. But she still does.
“I’m sorry. For disappointing you and making you mad at me.”
Alexia seems to soften finally completely and comes into the room again. She takes the time to close the door again before talking.
“I’m not disappointed in you, Ona. But between you and Tony, you are my favorite from far away. I would be mad if you get yourself in trouble because you go flirting with another Tribute at night. You have to be careful about yourself.”
Ona nods once again and is surprised when Alexia hugs her. She hugs her back, her nose somewhere on the other girl’s shoulder.
“Be careful with Tony, okay? I don’t like his comportment with you.”
“How does he know that I’m leaving at night?” Ona asks again.
Alexia sighs and lets go of Ona before answering.
“He said he was hungry and wanted something to eat when he saw you leaving. I really want to believe him. If it’s not that, he’s spying on you and it’s really disturbing.”
It is. Ona feels her stomach twist in a way that is everything but good. Why in the world would he spying on her? To know what she’s doing? Or is he spying on her for someone else?
“Don’t worry. I’ll have an eye on him, ok? Now try to sleep, you still have training tomorrow.”
“Yeah. Thank you.”
Alexia smiles softly and leaves the room for good this time. After a quick shower, Ona goes to bed. Once again, her mind is full, between Alexia’s revelations and what happened with Lucy in the garden.
Sure, it was just a kiss on the cheek. But she can’t forget the feeling she got when Lucy’s lips were on her skin. The perfection of her smell, the softness of Lucy’s lips. She’s smiling like a fool when she finally manages to fall asleep, not wanting to consider for now if she will be able to see Lucy at night again. Maybe they’ll find another way to be together. They have to.

demi god LU time
the law of hyperfixations says you must combine interests at every given chance
adding a cut here as to not clog feeds!! its a real long post
i wanna hear thoughts too! so dont be afraid to comment. these are my personal opinions and i wanna hear if anyone agrees or disagrees :D (apologies for all the tags btw)
edit to add the stupid doodle
Tumblr media
the gods all have favorites, and ironically none of them are their own kids (save for hades: he loves his kid. doesn't make him a good parent, but you know?)
In a more Zelda timeline abiding setting; Originally they weren't all at camp halfblood at the same time, but time shenanigans decided they were to be brought together
Imagine Chiron’s surprise when 7 of his dead campers waltz into camp (this happens EVERY SINGLE TIME they enter camp. Dionysus is completely unfazed, knowing the bs time shit the gods are dealing with atm)
By the time they enter camp in Wild’s Hyrule for the second time he kinda understands (Wind and Sky didnt have a Camp Halfblood, for the record, for obvious reasons)
Alternatively, its some form of modern au where they’re just from different parts of Hyrule (skyloft, downfall, ordonia, windfall peninsula, hyrule town (different from castle town), the list goes on) which would make a lot more sense for this kinda au (the world would’ve just had a LOT of calamities within the span of a few years, some of the heroes knowing about camp and others not so much)
(i think Legend, Wars, Time, Wind (post WW) and Four would’ve known about Camp Halfblood while the others were just kinda on their own until after their quests) meaning over half of them didn’t have prophecies and just went to deal with the issue themselves, possibly meaning on their journey they learned of camp
Ok well, all of them but Wars, who grew up at Camp Halfblood
All Zelda’s are children of Athena, save for Skyward Sword Zelda since she's the reincarnation of Hylia (yeah, im keeping the original Zelda goddesses! What of it?)
At some point fairly early on, a Zelda only had a son, who got together with Athena at some point and boom
Sky: child of Zeus 
self explanatory 
God of the skies? his name is literally Sky
not to mention how fucking powerful he is?
he was the "first" Link; Zeus was technically the first God, it makes sense (this is such a stupid reason)
The skies are his home, Zeus finding someone on Skyloft and “falling in love” with their love of the sky too results in this bad boy right here
The demise fight? Only a zeus kid could harbor lightning like that
A camp counselor in the modern setting (ik typically once you’re 18, you’re no longer a camper really, but shhhh)
Wind: child of Poseidon 
Don't roll your eyes, i've got a reason!!
the 4 wind gods throw a fit anytime he's sent on a quest (they all love him even if they won't admit it)
A world purely ocean and islands? Poseidon would have a fuckin ball
The Great Sea needed a hero, Wind was brought about more for necessity than out of the want to have a child (this leaves a hard disconnect between wind and the gods, knowing his dad didn’t really have him out of love for his mom but because the world needed to be saved)
The irony of Poseidon being the patron of pegasi and horses and Wind not knowing what a horse is will never not be a funny thought
Has more control over the wind than he does the sea (for now) 
he, like Legend, pointedly ignores that he's a demi-god, especially since he comes after the Hero of Time (kinda hard to live up to that, even outside of a demi-god au)
The ocean and winds are his mood ring: you upset him the wind gods are after you
In a modern setting, the same reason applies kinda; a quest under the sea would be virtually impossible for anyone but a child of Poseidon, and hell knows a cyclopes isnt gonna be sent (gotta love those prophecies) 
OR!! OR AND HEAR ME OUT
Wind isnt a demigod
The wind gods still adore him, but he doesn't have the hero’s spirit and i think that’d kinda translate to not being a demigod, yet still being the one who was destined to go on the quest because there just weren't any demigods to do it
Still not set on which id go with
Legend: child of Hades 
Ah yes, child of the big three goes on so many quests trope. Love to see it
he's Apollo's favorite favorite (Warriors is jealous as hell. Thats his dad! Wdym he likes Legend more????) 
Pointedly ignores the fact he's a demigod (at least, he definitely tries to)
Blessed by (and beefing with) so many gods from his quests
probably one of the few heroes who's spoken to their godly parent (trust me, it was out of obligation rather than free will)
Prefers helping out the more minor, underappreciated, and not as needy or bitchy gods (like Hestia, for example)
curses the Olympians constantly, they've learned to ignore him, hes their best questing kid
Sort of a general camp counselor since Hades doesn't really have kids (its technically his last year but hes been there the longest out of everyone)
Managed to block the oracle over iris message
After his trip to the dark world and lorule, the gods go haywire around him, much to his delight (because it means they leave him alone)
Hyrule: child of Hecate 
adopted by Hermes (much to the dismay of all the Hermes children)
I was on the line between Hecate, Apollo, and Hermes; Hyrule’s affinity for magic and the blood curse resulted in Hecate to win 
Very detached from the gods, the help he receives is never outright but more subtle blessings
The gods like to ignore Downfall after Legend died tbh (outside of modern, obviously)
Well, they still ignore Downfall as a city/country. 
Only learned of camp thanks to Legend, otherwise he wouldn’t have had a clue it existed
Wild: child of Athena 
Also adopted by Hermes 
One of the more chaotic children of Athena
The idea of Athena being his godly parent sourced from his resourcefulness and quick battle (or just general) strategies, along with his pre-calamity self being stoic and more on the critical side
Completely forgot he was a demigod and just let loose, Athena is more than slightly perturbed by him and yet so infatuated
Supervises archery at camp
Warriors: child of Apollo 
exemplifies almost 0 traits of his father other than his looks and his affinity for medicine (shit archer, shit musician, can't write poetry)
blessed by Athena during the war since he was struggling so much, she always has a soft spot for the heros since they fight to protect her daughters so hard (aka pity blessing) 
Actively beefing with Ares 
Aphrodite likes to keep an eye on him, mostly for entertainment (she woulda eaten the whole Cia debacle UP)
Very notorious in camp considering he was a war captain at the ripe age of 17; once learning of the whole Camp Jupiter has apartments and college for half bloods insisted and led a project at CHB to get something similar built (which is where he, Sky and Twilight stay after turning 18)
Twilight: child of Demeter
His love for ranch animals and caring for his farm lead me to this decision
Also the whole wolf thing, that also counts
Appalled by the fact Wind doesn't know what a horse is considering he's literally the son of Poseidon (jealous the kid can talk to Epona and he can't)
After his journey to the twilight, the gods kinda flicker between Greek and Roman around him so they tend to avoid him like Legend
blessed/cursed by Lupa, hence the wolf thing
Teaches foraging lessons at camp
Four: child of Hephaestus
He's the smithy, I couldn’t not say he's a Hephaestus kid
received a lot less help from the gods since he was one of the first 
started advocating that heros receive help from the divine after LU concludes so those after him have a fighting chance (not in the modern setting)
I havent played many of his games, but the kinstones sound like a thing Hephaestus would scatter across the earth as scrap from his creations
Not one of the fire wielders (the only one that can wield fire is Red when split, mostly because of the elemental bs in minish cap)
After drawing the Four Sword, Janus (despite being roman (i like to think the four sword would be a roman artifact, it just feels right)) was suddenly pretty interested and bestowed what wisdom he had for the demi-god
Vulcan, Neptune, Aeolus, and Ceres all came together to forge the elemental stones; the Minish were still the ones to bestow the sword to Hylian people
The gods tend to avoid him too, for the same reason they avoid Twilight and Legend (dark world shenanigans and the Four Sword)
He loves the damn forge at CHB, and was ecstatic seeing the one at Camp Jupiter
He was asked by Chiron if he would be interested in running a forge class for young demigods (be it his siblings or anyone interested) but sadly declined 
Has that air of responsibility to him, being a seasoned quester (and while his 3 doesn't stand to Legend’s 6, its still pretty sizable) hes looked up to by the younger campers
Time: child of Demeter Kronos? 
The Kokiri were so Demeter core dont even tell me they werent
I guess they’d kinda act like nymphs and dryads in a sense??
His abilities use to relate to his mother until the events of his first quest: the Ocarina of Time was designed to slowly corrupt the user, being a creation of Kronos’
However, it wasn’t really designed with a demigod in mind sooo

Also self explanatory, the titan of time? Duh
 huh?? what do you mean he was taken over?? What do you mean he was a child of Demeter?? No he wasnt lol that Neverrr happened
the reason he's the only “child” of a titan is mainly because of the fierce deity mask literally making him god-like, meaning he has a lot more power harbored in him sooo (the second he dawned that mask he discarded his old identity for that of a titan’s child, since it was also cursed object)
Don’t ask how he came to being Kronos’ kin, no one knows, not even he does (I do) (no, it does not imply a Hylian wandered into Tarturus and got out alive to have the baby)
Avoids interacting with the gods at all costs, he's weary of them as they are of him (even if he saved the world twice)
Extras :)
Ravio: child of Pluto 
blessed by Minerva for his natural quick witted nature and clever war strategies, if her own daughter can't succeed she might as well make sure ONE does
can tell if a rupee is real or not by glance alone
Sheerow scares the fuck out of the gods, which in turn means Ravio puts them on edge, a thing very few can achieve
the gods never gave him much thought until the events of albw, to which he suddenly gained like four pair of godly eyes on him
can and will plan one of the worlds most successful heists, refuses to participate 
also beefing with Ares (not Mars, Ares)
Based on my personal HC that Ravio’s some sort of artificer (be it replicating magic dungeon items or just flat out creating new ones) i think Vulcan has his eyes on him too
Hilda: child of Minerva 
by far the strangest child Minerva ever birthed
exemplifies the traits of a hero rather than a ruler
a little jealous her mother likes Ravio more than her
gods be damned, she's not going to let them neglect her kingdom anymore 
a force of fucking nature that single handedly forced a meeting with the gods and somehow forced them to agree to start restoring Lorule (she got the idea from Legend, who has done this multiple times for multiple different reasons)

May I have a Chessy x reader slow burn then against the wall smut? I'm a sucker for both to be quite honest.
Hi Anon! Thank you for the prompt and I hope I delivered on the slow burn and the smut enough for you! Not edited in the slightest and I hope you like it!
On another note: I got another Chessy prompt yesterday so I'll see if I'm able to finish it before the New Year! Also I didn't specifically describe this about reader but I pictured her being taller than Chessy. I am not taller than Lisa, I'm 5'1, which is why I usually make reader shorter.
A Vineyard Crush
Warnings: Smut, Angst
Words: 9.1K (Enjoy)
Tumblr media
You just got hired as a gardener at the Parker’s ranch and Nick Parker himself is giving you a tour of the ranch. 
“So once the grapes are picked then they go down here where they get inspected again and then turned into wine.” Nick says as he shows you the basement. “So that’s the places you’ll need to know for work, any questions?” He asks as you walk back to the field. You’re about to shake your head when you see a woman appear at the front door and you can’t help but stare a bit.
“Who’s that?” You ask and point to her, Nick looks to where you’re pointing.
“Oh that’s Chessy, she’s the live-in nanny that helps me raise my daughter and keeps the house running.
“You have a daughter?” You ask and he nods.
“Ya but she just left for camp yesterday and won’t be back for a month.” He tells you and you nod.
“Ok, when do I start?” You ask him and he smiles.
“Right now.” He says and he calls someone over. A man walks towards you both and looks at Nick. “Kyle, this is Y/n. I just hired her and she needs someone to show her how things are done.” He tells him and Kyle nods before Nick walks to the house.
“Ok, so come with me and I’ll show you everything we have to do.” He tells you and you follow him to the grapes. On your way there, you stare at Chessy again and can’t help but be entranced by her.
The next day you’re checking the grapes while Kyle watches and you see Chessy walk out and you turn slightly to glance at her.
“Do you need a break?” You hear and you snap out of your staring and look at Kyle.
“What?” You ask him.
“Do you need a break? I’m guessing you’re not used to working in the heat all day.” He says and you nod.
“Ya a small break would actually be nice.” You tell him and you go get your water bottle from the cooler. “What do you know about her? I think Nick said her name was Chessy.” You ask him and he looks at her.
“I don’t know much actually. She doesn’t go outside much unless it’s to walk Sammy and she doesn’t talk a lot.” He says.
“Who’s Sammy?”
“Their golden retriever, he’s a sweetheart of a dog.” He tells you. “All I know is she takes care of Hallie, Nick’s daughter, and she’s also the cook and she cleans the house.” He says to you and you look at Chessy. 
The following day you’re picking grapes when you hear barking and then you see Sammy running up to you. He stops in front of you and then you give him a few pets and then you hear someone calling him and you look up to see her running towards you.
“Sammy!” She yells and Sammy ignores her and demands more pets from you. “Sorry about that, he usually doesn’t run up to people like this.” She says to you with a smile and you smile back at her.
“Oh it’s not a problem, he’s so sweet and cute.” You tell her and Sammy wags his tail.
“He’s sweet until he runs to total strangers to get away from the bath.” She jokes and you laugh. “Are you new? I haven’t seen you before.” She asks you and you nod.
“Ya, it’s only my third day.” You tell her as you stand up straight to look at her.
“Well it’s nice to meet you, I’m Chessy.” She says and holds out a hand to shake, you immediately shake her hand and you feel her incredibly soft hands.
“I’m Y/n. Sorry but your hands are so soft, what’s your skin routine?” You ask and then mentally facepalm for asking a stupid question but then you hear her laugh.
“Well thank you and I actually don’t have any routine other than using body lotion every night before bed.” She says with a smile and you stare at her the entire time until Sammy barks. “Well I gotta get this mister into the bath so he has time to dry off before the sun goes down.” She says and holds on to Sammy’s collar. “I’ll see you around.” She tells you.
“Ya, well I work here so I guess you will.” You joke and she smiles before walking Sammy back into the house.
The two of you didn’t speak again until a week later when you and Kyle were working on a grapevine when you noticed something strange about the bottom of the plant.
“Kyle, does it look like the plant is molding?” You ask him and he quickly goes on his knees to inspect it.
“Go get Nick, he’s in the house.” Kyle tells you and you run to the house. You walk inside as they left the doors open and you see Chessy in the kitchen, cooking something.
“Y/n? What are you doing here?” She asks as she sees you.
“Where’s Nick? It’s important.” You ask her.
“NICK!!!” She yells and he jogs into the room a few seconds later.
“What’s up Chessy? Y/n? What are you doing here?”
“Can you come with me? I think something is wrong with one of the grapevines.” You tell him and he follows you outside. 
“If it’s molding then we should pull it out and save as much grapes on it as possible.” Kyle tells Nick and he looks at it.
“Yes, you should pull it out and save all the grapes.” Nick says and you and Kyle get to work.
An hour later Chessy comes out and reaches you just as you turn around and bump right into her.
“Oohh! Oh Chessy, I’m sorry.” You tell her and she waves you off.
“It’s no one’s fault, wrong timing is all. I was just wondering if the problem got fixed. The one that you had to get Nick to help solve.” She asks and you smile.
“Oh that, ya. We had to pull one of the vines out as it was dying from the root.” You tell her and she nods. “Did you come just to check on me?” You ask her and she rolls her eyes. 
“No.” She simply says and you tilt your head. “Ok maybe.” She changes her answer to.
“Well I’m flattered, I heard you don’t talk to the workers much.” You tell her and she quirks an eyebrow at you.
“Oh, have you asked about me?” 
“Of course.” You say to her with a smile.
“I don’t talk much to people because I’m busy.” She tells you as you get back to work.
“And yet you took time out of your busy schedule to come talk to me.” You tell her and smirk.
“Don’t get cocky, I have to go back to work now, but I’ll see you around.” She says softly and you nod.
“You can come out and see me any time during the day.” You tell her and she smiles before she walks back to the house.
The next day she goes to walk Sammy and passes by you. She smiles and waves when she sees you before she continues with the walk. When she finishes the walk, she lets Sammy off the leash and then he starts running back to the house. He ends up taking a slight detour and runs to you. You turn around when you hear him barking and you get on your knees and start petting him. Chessy eventually catches up and walks up to you both.
“What horrible thing were you going to do to him now?” You joke with her and she snorts.
“Nothing this time, I just took him off the leash.” She tells you. “And I guess he ran to his new friend.” She adds and you smile as you continue petting him.
“Well, aren't you sweet?” You say to Sammy and then he runs off. “And I guess he’s had enough.” You say out loud as you stand up. “By the way, did you hear that this publicist is coming to take pictures tomorrow?” You ask her and she nods.
“Ya Nick told me, apparently this girl named Meredith Blake.” She says. “I gotta go finish cleaning the house in case she wants pictures of it as well.” She tells you and you nod before she leaves.
“So you and Chessy are getting along.” Kyle says to you and you turn to look at him.
“I guess.” You tell him and shrug your shoulders.
“I won’t tell anyone about your crush on her.” He says to you and you whip your head towards him.
“I don’t have a crush on her.” You tell him sternly.
“Alright, whatever you say. But you were staring at her as she walked away.” He tells you and then he gets back to work.
The next day a car pulls up and Nick walks out to greet them. You think that it must be the publicist. You see her walk out of the car and you widen your eyes as you see a beautiful young woman step out and greet Nick. You watch them walk around as he gives her a tour and you go back to work. About half an hour later they walk up to where you are and Nick greets you.
“Hey Y/n, this is Meredith Blake, the publicist I told you all about.” He introduces her to you and you nod then shake her hand. You see Nick’s hand is on her back the entire time. “Do you mind if she takes a couple pictures of you working and of the grapes?” He asks you.
“No not at all, go for it.” You tell him and then get back to work. About 10 minutes later they move on to the other areas and you just shake your head at Nick being smitten with her. “If she was my type I might be all over her as well.” You mutter to yourself. “Thankfully she’s not my type.”
“Who is your type then?” You hear behind you and you turn around quickly and see Chessy there with a smile.
“Oh, Chessy. I didn’t even notice or hear you coming.” You tell her and she giggles.
“Sorry to scare you, maybe I’ll wear a bell next time.” She jokes with you and you snort.
“Well that might actually help, that way I’ll know to run away.” You say with a smile and she laughs.
“I saw you met Meredith.” She tells you and you nod. “Apparently they already met a couple times and Nick apparently asked her out and she said yes.” She tells you. “I noticed you eyeing his hand.” She adds on.
“Were you watching me?” You ask her.
“Watching her actually, I want to know what’s going on.” She tells you and you nod. “You didn’t answer my question earlier, what’s your type?” She asks and you slightly blush.
“Oh that’s not important.” You say, trying to not answer the question.
“Come on, I’ll tell you mine if you tell me yours.” 
“I’m actually ok not knowing what kind of man catches your eye.” You say as you look at a couple grapes before picking them out and putting them in a basket.
“Man or woman.” She says and you look at her. “I’m attracted to both genders.” She tells you and you stare at her for a couple seconds. 
“I’m attracted to women.” You tell her and she nods. “Attracted to one's a bit older than me and brunettes the most.” You say, keeping it a bit short but then realised you described her.
“Hm, interesting. Well I’m attracted to both genders and it’s not really anything physical that really attracts me, it’s more personality. Like kind, confident and romantic.” She says to you and you nod.
“That’s a good list to have. I wasted a small amount of time on a girl who wasn’t nice.” You tell her and she smiles.
“Well you can use my list as a reference then.” She says and then both of you say bye before she leaves to the house.
“I just don’t know what he sees in her.” Chessy tells you a few days later as she holds the basket full of grapes for you.
“Well she’s pretty and good at selling.” You tell her as you place a grape in the basket.
“She’s barely selling the wine.” She says and you look at her.
“I didn’t say it was the wine that she’s good at selling.” You tell her and she snorts. “You seem a bit jealous.” You add and she shakes her head.
“Not jealous, more concerned.” She tells you. “Nick and Hal are family to me, and I don’t think Hal is going to like this.” She says as you place another grape in the basket.
“When is she coming back?” You ask her. 
“In 15 days.” She tells you.
“Well we can’t be too surprised that Nick is dating, he is a single man.” You say to her.
“I guess, it did take him a while to get over his ex-wife.” She says and you hum.
“Well there’s nothing we can do, so how about you focus on keeping the house going until Hallie comes back?” You tell her and she nods.
“Good point, it’s not like anything serious will happen at least until Hal meets her.” She says and you nod.
“Exactly.” You tell her as you put another grape in the basket. She then hands the basket back to you.
“I gotta go make some lunch.” She says and you nod at her.
“Have fun.” You tell her and she smiles before walking to the house.
“I don’t have a crush on her.” You hear Kyle as he imitates you.
“We can be acquaintances.” You tell him.
“She might be acquaintances with you but you got a crush on her.” He says and you roll your eyes.
“I don’t, she’s just an interesting person.” You tell him and then he looks unimpressed and gets back to work.
The next day you have your raincoat on as it’s raining out and then you all hear thunder coming and then see lightning that’s pretty close.
“Come on, we got to take shelter.” Kyle tells you and you grab the basket and then run to cover. 
You, Kyle and a couple others take shelter at the front porch of the house and wait out the storm while others take shelter in the horse shelter.
“Is everyone ok?” You hear and turn to see Chessy there.
“Ya everyone is good, just saw lightning really close by.” You basically shout over the rain and she nods.
The following week she stops by to say hi to you.
“Hey you.” She says softly and you look at her.
“Where’s your bell?” You joke with her and she laughs.
“I knew I forgot something.” She says and you giggle.
“I guess you’re excited about Hallie coming back in 7 days.” You tell her and she nods.
“Yep, but it’s looking serious between Nick and Meredith. I saw them making out the other day by the pool.” 
“Ew.” You say and she laughs.
“It’s even worse if you catch them.” She says and you smile.
“You must be traumatised.” You say dramatically and she laughs again.
“I most definitely am.” 
“So what brings you by? Came to rant again?” You ask her and she shakes her head.
“Nope, just came to say hi to my friend as I have some free time.” She tells you and you smile.
“Already at friends?” You ask her shyly and she nods.
“Well we shared our attractions so I think friends is acceptable.” She says and you laugh. 
“It definitely is.” You say as you pull out a couple weeds around one of the grapevines.
For the rest of the week, Chessy comes to talk to you everyday and then on Thursday she comes out running to you.
“Y/n!” She yells and you turn to look at her.
“What is it?” 
“They’re engaged.” She says to you and you look at her confused. “Nick just proposed to Meredith and she said yes.” She tells you and you widen your eyes.
“That’s quick.” You say and she nods.
“Hal doesn’t even know her father is dating someone, and now he’s engaged.” She says. “She’s coming back in 2 days.” She exclaims and you rub her arm to comfort her.
“Just relax, maybe Hallie might like it.” You tell her and she looks at you unimpressed.
“I’m calm, but I know Hal won’t like it.” She tells you. “Are you working on Saturday?” She asks and you nod.
“Ya I work everyday over the summer.” You tell her.
“I might rant to you over the weekend.” She tells you and you nod.
“You can come rant to me anytime.” You tell her and she smiles.
“Thank you.” She says and you smile at her.
The next day you see Chessy frantically getting things ready for Hallie’s arrival, as well as going shopping to pick up everything for meals.
On Saturday morning you see Nick’s car pulling up and you see a ginger haired girl getting out as well as Chessy running out, screaming excitedly and you snort.
“She’s such a dork.” You mutter and then you look to see Kyle looking at you amused. “Still not a crush.” You tell him and he shrugs his shoulders and gets back to work. 
You then hear barking and you see Sammy barking at Hallie and avoiding her. That’s odd. Chessy told you that Sammy adores Hallie.
You then see Hallie go inside and Chessy pets Sammy before following her. You see Meredith walking around in a white dress with a hat on and you shake your head. You wonder when Chessy will come out and rant to you.
You see her coming out about an hour later and you pretend that you don’t see her, to make sure that Kyle sees you don’t have a crush on her.
“Hey Y/n.” She says and you look at her with a smile.
“Hey Chessy, come out to rant already?” You ask her and she shrugs her shoulders.
“Not only is Hal meeting Meredith right now, she also seems different. It seems she changed a lot at camp.” She tells you and you nod.
“Well she’s almost 12, don’t they tend to do that at that age?” You ask her amused and she nods.
“They do but she barely touched the chili I made even though it’s her favourite thing in the world.” She says. “Not to mention that Sammy is avoiding her.” She adds on.
“Ya, I saw that, I did think that was weird.” You tell her and she nods. “Just give it a couple days and I’m sure once she settles in then she’ll be begging you to make that chili again.” You tell her and she smiles.
“You always know what to say, don’t you?” She asks and you blush a little.
“I guess I can be a woman of words.” You tell her and she laughs. The both of you chat a bit until she has to go start on dinner. 
“You guys spend a lot of time together.” Kyle tells you when Chessy is out of ear shot.
“Well we’re friends and we don’t spend a whole lot of time together, I mean we only talk while I work.” You tell him.
“You mean you don’t spend time together outside of working hours?” He asks and you shake your head. “Are you really friends if you don’t spend time together outside of work? It sounds like you’re work friends.” He tells you and you frown.
“Maybe.” You tell him and go on your knees to pull out a weed.
The next day you see Nick and Hallie take off on their horses and then Chessy comes out with Sammy. Sammy remains off leash and he chooses to run up to you.
“Hey Sammy!” You exclaim and go to pet him.
“He definitely likes you. He might have a little crush on you.” Chessy tells you when she catches up.
“I bet he likes everyone.” You tell her.
“Except for Hal, he’s still avoiding her.” She tells you and you look at her. “And she’s still acting strange.” She adds.
“Strange how?” You ask and she sighs.
“She barely touched breakfast, she took a bite out of a piece of toast and then took off. She normally loves to eat a lot at breakfast. She’s also gotten incredibly proper which is unusual and she forgot how to open the door to go outside.” She tells you.
“So she’s acting a bit different, but she’s still Hallie. I mean there’s not someone else who looks exactly like her.” You joke and she looks like she’s thinking about something. “Right?” You ask her and she snaps out of her thoughts and looks at you.
“Right, exactly.” She tells you.
“I’ve got a lot to do today.” You tell her and she looks at you.
“You don’t want to talk with a friend like we did yesterday?” She asks and she tilts her head.
“Well work friends don’t always talk to each other for an hour or two everyday.” You tell her and she frowns.
“Work friends?” She asks.
“Ya, I mean we only talk to each other while at work. Isn’t that work friends?”
“Oh, right, I guess so.” She tells you with disappointment in her voice.
“Everything alright?” You ask her and she smiles and nods.
“Yep, just remembered something I have to do.” She tells you and heads inside, and Sammy follows her. You get back to work and you see Kyle looking at you strangely.
Chessy heads inside and finishes cleaning the kitchen before she gets her glasses out and goes to read in the chair. Her mind goes to wander to you and you saying that her and you are just work friends and that kinda stung. She thought you two were real friends but then thinks you have a point, you don’t hang out outside of work. That didn’t stop her from developing a crush on you though. She’s suddenly snapped out of her thoughts when Hallie barges in all anxious.
Chessy is in the kitchen 30 minutes later making food for Annie when she catches sight of you working on the grapes. She looks out of the window just to watch you working and gets lost in thought. She doesn’t know how much time has passed when Annie walks into the kitchen. 
“What are you staring at?” She asks Chessy and Chessy slightly jumps and turns around.
“Nothing! Nobody.” She says and Annie looks unconvinced.
“You were staring at someone?” She asks and Chessy shakes her head.
“Of course not, why would you ask that?” Chessy says with a slight blush and Annie smiles.
“Well I just came to tell you that Hallie is telling our mother tomorrow morning and then we’re going to be switched back.” She tells Chessy.
“Well I guess that’s what’s bound to happen when you switch places with your secret twin.” Chessy tells her amused and Annie laughs.
“Why didn’t they tell us that we’re a twin? I mean you knew.” Annie asks her and Chessy looks at a lost for words.
10 minutes later you’re on a ladder getting some grapes up top while Kyle is holding on. 
“Hey Y/n.” Chessy tells you and you look down and see Chessy and Hallie there.
“Hey Chessy, just a moment.” You tell her.
“Kyle, none of these grapes are ready.” You tell him.
“I guess they’re growing slower on this one. We’ll just check again tomorrow.” He tells you and you nod then get down. Kyle takes the ladder and walks away to put it away.
“So Chessy, what’s up.” You ask her as you take your gloves off.
“Well I wanted to introduce you to someone.” She says.
“Oh, well hello Hallie.” You tell her and shake her hand. “Chessy has told me quite a bit about you.” 
“Well actually this isn’t Hallie.” Chessy says and Annie looks at her in shock. “You can trust her.” Chessy says and you look confused.
“I’m actually Annie, Hallie’s twin.” Annie says with her British accent and you look at Chessy and she confirms with a nod. 
“Well it’s nice to meet you Annie, and I see you’re from the UK.” You tell her and she nods.
“From London. Chessy wanted me to meet you before I get switched back with Hallie.” She says and you nod. 
The 3 of you talk for a little bit before Annie and Chessy had to go back inside to eat and you had to get ready to leave.
The next day Chessy comes up to you and takes a breath before speaking.
“We’re all leaving tomorrow morning to go to the Stafford hotel.” She tells you and you look at her.
“Well hello to you too.” You tell her with a smile and she chuckles.
“Hey Y/n, we’re switching the twins back as Hallie told their mom.” She tells you and you nod.
“Well at least you’ll get to see Hallie again.” You tell her and she smiles.
“Ya, but I’m going to miss Annie. I saw both of them when they came home from the hospital and then a year later Elizabeth takes off with Annie.” She tells you and you grab her hand.
“I’m sure it’ll all work out as the twins will want to see each other again as well as see their parents again.” You tell her and Chessy looks at your hand in hers and nods.
“You’re right, I’m excited to see Hal again and I’ll see Annie again.” She says and you smile at her before you let go of her hand.
“How long are you going to be gone for?” You ask her. 
“Nick reserved a couple bedrooms for a couple nights.” She tells you and you nod.
“Well I’ll see you when you get back, and I can’t wait to meet Hallie.” You tell her and she smiles at you before she goes to pack. 
You do your work for a couple days and then you see them come back home, only this time there’s 2 cars coming back. You watch as 2 ginger-haired girls get out of the car, as well as Nick, Chessy, Meredith and Sammy, as well as a couple other people you don’t know. 
You watch Chessy for the whole day and see her and this guy being really close with each other. You feel a sting in your heart at seeing them spending time together and being all giggles. You start feeling jealousy at seeing her with someone else and you work and mope until Chessy walks over to you.
“Y/n!” She exclaims as she comes over with that guy and the twins. “I wanted to introduce you to the twins and also Martin. We don’t know which one is which as they won’t tell us. And Martin is Elizabeth and Annie’s butler.” She tells you with a smile.
“Well nice to meet you Martin and Hallie.” You say and look directly at her.
“How’d you know which one was who?” Hallie exclaims and you smile.
“You just told me.” You say and they pout before you hear Chessy giggle. Martin then gets called by Elizabeth and he goes to help her.
“Isn’t he great?” Chessy asks you and the twins look at her and then at you.
“I don’t know him.” You tell her, harsher than you thought and she looks at you confused due to her tone.
“Well him and I are going on a picnic date tomorrow while everyone else is away camping.” She says and you go back to picking grapes.
“Cool.” You say, completely uninterested in the conversation. The twins look between the two of you before looking at each other and then leaving. Chessy watches them leave and then steps closer to you.
“Are you ok? Did something happen while we were away?” She asks with concern and puts her hand on your shoulder but you shrug her off.
“I’m fine, I just have work to do, as you can see.” You tell her with a snap to your voice and she looks at you surprised.
“If something is bothering you then you know you can tell me.” She says and you look at her without any emotion.
“Why would I tell you? We’re just work friends, remember?” You say and she nods.
“I guess you just need some space right now, I’ll leave you be.” She tells you and walks away.
You let out a breath when she’s out of earshot and Kyle comes up to you.
“Still denying that you have feelings for her?” He asks and you glare at him before you soften your features.
“I know I like her, but she obviously likes that Martin guy instead of me.” 
“So what are you going to do? You can brush her off like that everytime she comes to talk to you.” He tells you and you sigh.
“I can’t talk to her without being jealous about her and Martin.” You tell him.
“So you are going to brush her off every time?” He asks and you nod. “Doesn’t she come to talk to you a few times per week?” He asks you and you nod.
“I have to start distancing myself as I have a major crush on her. At this point it’s not even a crush, I have feelings for her, real feelings for her.” You tell him and he rubs your back before going back to work. 
“So your plan is to get her to not like you anymore?” He asks and you nod.
“It’ll make her stop coming to talk to me.” You say and then you go back to work.
You watch Chessy and Martin kiss under an umbrella as Annie, Elizabeth and Martin head back to London. It’s been 2 days since you started distancing yourself from Chessy and you still feel a sting in your heart at her spending a lot of time with Martin, especially since you heard that she spent a whole day and a night with him. 
The next day you see Chessy walking around the yard with Sammy and then Sammy runs up to you and demands pets from you. You couldn’t keep yourself from ignoring him as he’s too sweet and cute, so you obviously start petting him.
“So you refuse to spend time with me but not him?” Chessy asks as she comes up to you both.
“Didn’t think you’d notice?” You tell her and she looks at you confused. “You were spending every minute with Martin.” You tell her and she frowns.
“Yes but he’s back in London now.” She tells you.
“And didn’t Nick and Hallie not go after them?” You ask her and she nods. “So he’s going to come back and you’ll be able to spend all the time you want with him.” You snap at her.
“What’s been going on with you lately? Ever since we came back from San Francisco, you’ve been acting different.” She says and you roll your eyes. You go to walk to a different grapevine but she grabs your wrist. “Y/n, please talk to me.” She says and you glare at her.
“Why do you care if I talk to you or not?” You ask her and she looks hurt by your words. Before she speaks again, Kyle comes up to you both and looks at Chessy.
“Sorry to interrupt but I need Y/n’s help with something.” He says and Chessy lets go of you.
“Of course, I’ll talk to you later then Y/n.” She says to you and you watch her walk away and then turn to Kyle.
“Thank you.” You tell him after taking a breath.
“You’re welcome. But I can’t save you all the time, you should come up with an excuse as to why you don’t want to see her ever again or tell her the truth.” He tells you and you sigh.
“Obviously I’m gonna lie, I just have to come up with a reason why.” You tell him. 
“I don’t understand why you never told her that you have feelings for her.”
“Because I’m not her type.” You tell him.
“What did she say her type was again?”
“Kind, confident and romantic.” You say and he looks at you.
“So you don’t want to be nice to her anymore cause that would just turn her off?”
“I was never trying to turn her on, and besides she has Martin now.” You tell him. “And he seems like her type.” You say, unknown to you, Chessy was watching you and Kyle talk from a window inside the house.
Chessy takes a deep breath and places her hands on the counter to steady herself. She likes Martin but she also likes you. She thinks how Martin is her type, he’s nice to her, he’s confident with what he wants and he took her out on a romantic picnic. But during the picnic she remembers thinking about you. But you seem to be pushing her away and she doesn’t know why. 
She would rather be with you as she likes you more, but you have no romantic interest in her, and it seems that you have no platonic interest in her anymore as well. She slumps down on the ground and Sammy walks up and sits next to her, providing comfort. If you want nothing to do with her then she’ll just have to respect your wishes and stay away, besides she has Martin now and there’s a good chance he’s coming back.
A couple days later you see Nick and Hallie pull up and get out of the car with smiles on their faces, and you’re guessing that it’s all going to work out for them.
Nick and Hallie tell Chessy that the whole James household is moving in with them, including Martin. She’s excited at first but then it sinks in for her that Martin is going to be around the entire time and each day she stares at you from a window. 
A week later the James household and Martin come to the ranch with some essentials before the rest of their stuff comes from London.
The whole first week of them being there, you try to ignore Chessy and Martin being close to each other. Chessy hasn’t tried to talk to you since you snapped at her and you can’t blame her. 
The day after the first week of everyone moving in, you come to the ranch and Hallie and Annie come up to you.
“What can I do for you two?” You ask them.
“Why are you and Chessy not talking to each other?” Annie asks you and you look at her.
“We were acquaintances but we’re not anymore.” You simply tell her.
“But why?” She pushes and you sigh.
“The reason doesn’t matter.” You tell her as you get back to work.
“Is it because of Martin? You snapped at her when she introduced you to Martin.” She asks and you got to give her credit for catching on to that.
“What would anything have to do with him?” You ask her.
“Because you like her.” Hallie simply says and you wipe your head at them.
“Is there a reason for this questioning?” You ask them as calmly as possible.
“Chessy likes you as well.” Annie says and Hallie agrees.
“And why would you say that?” You ask them.
“Because when I was here, she spent a lot of time with you, spoke highly of you and I caught her staring out the window at you.” Annie says and you sigh.
“I still don’t see the reason for you two talking to me.” 
“Well don’t you see? You like her and she likes you, you should be together.” Hallie says.
“Annie, have you forgotten that your butler is with her?” You ask her and she thinks about that for a moment.
“We can break them up.” Annie says.
“No, I’m not going to ruin a happy relationship because of feelings that Chessy might have had for me at some point.” 
“She still likes you.” Hallie says and you look at them. “We see her staring out the window every day. The window that just so happens to be in the spot to see you perfectly.” She adds and you go back to work.
“Annie and Hallie, I’m only going to say this once. Chessy is happy with Martin and her and I are no longer acquaintances or friends or whatever we were. So please just drop it, ok?” You tell them and they look at you.
“If we dropped it with our parents then they wouldn’t be together.” Annie says and Hallie nods.
“Chessy and I aren’t your parents.” You tell them and then they seem to get an idea and run away.
Back at the house, Chessy is sitting on the living room couch with Martin when the twins walk in.
“Chessy, can we talk to you?” Hallie says as they go up to her.
“What’s up Hal?” She asks and then they take her hands and drag her up to their room. “Guys, what is going on?” She asks them once they close the door.
“It’s about Y/n.” Hallie says.
“What about Y/n? Is she ok?” Chessy asks.
“Physically yes, emotionally not so much.” Annie says and Hallie nods.
“What?” 
“Why aren’t you two friends anymore?” Annie asks. “When I was here, you spoke highly of her and a lot.” 
“Well Y/n didn’t want me in her life anymore.” Chessy tells them honestly. “I tried talking to her and she snapped at me twice. That’s what happened.” 
“But why did she snap at you?” Hallie asks.
“I don’t know, you’d have to ask her.” 
“We did, she didn’t give us a direct answer but we have a good idea why.” Annie says and Chessy looks at them in confusion.
“And why do you think Y/n snapped at me?” Chessy asks them.
“Because she likes you, as in, has feelings for you.” Hallie tells her and Chessy looks at them, at a lost for words.
“Did she specifically tell you that?” She asks them carefully.
“No, but she didn’t deny it.” Hallie says.
“She started snapping at you after you introduced her to Martin, Chessy she was jealous.” Annie says to her.
“We’ve been talking all summer, she never said anything.” Chessy says.
“We don’t know the reason for that, but she could be scared.” Hallie says.
“Why are you telling me this?” Chessy asks them.
“Because you deserve to know, we know you have feelings for her.” Annie says.
“But I’m with Martin now.” Chessy says.
“Well it all depends on who you’d rather be with.” Hallie tells her. 
“You can stay with Martin or you can tell Y/n the truth.” Annie adds. 
Chessy is looking out the window at you working and Martin comes up to her.
“Why do you stare out that window everyday?” He asks her and she turns around.
“No important reason.” She says and he looks out of it.
“Oh, I can see the vineyard from here, I guess it’s a nice view.” He says. “Oh and there’s your friend Y/n.” He says to her.
“She’s not my friend anymore.” She says to him.
“Why not?” 
“Because she doesn’t want me in her life anymore.”
“Did she say why?” 
“No, she didn’t, and it hurts.” She says and Martin hugs her.
“Why don’t we go ask her together? Demand an answer from her.” 
“I don’t think she’ll say anything with you there, it took a while before she started opening up to me.” Chessy tells him.
“It’s that why you look out the window everyday? Cause you’re looking at Y/n.” Martin asks and Chessy nods. “Are you staring at her because you’re longing to be her friend or for a different reason?” Martin asks and Chessy looks at him.
“Different reason.” She tells him and Martin looks disappointed before looking at her.
“Is the reason that you’d rather be with her?” He asks and she nods. “I understand.” He says and goes to walk away. “You can’t choose who to love, the heart chooses for you, no matter what.” He says and a few tears fall down Chessy’s face.
“You’re really sweet and romantic but I can’t stop thinking about her.” Chessy says and Martin nods.
“Then you should go tell her.” Martin says and Chessy nods before leaving.
You see Chessy walking out and then walking towards you but you pretend that you don’t see her. You notice her coming closer to you and you start to walk away but she catches up with you and she grabs your wrist.
“Come with me.” She says sternly and you look at her.
“I’m working.” You tell her and you see a fire in her eyes.
“Nick won’t care, come with me.” She says and you let her pull you away. She pulls you until you’re alone in the garden and you look at her in confusion.
“What’s all this about? I thought we weren’t talking to each other anymore.” You say to her.
“Did you get jealous?” She asks you and you look at her.
“What?”
“The reason you snapped at me, is it because I was with Martin and you were jealous?” She asks you and you widen your eyes.
“Of course I’m not jealous.” You tell her but she grabs your shoulders.
“You’re lying.” She tells you plainly and you look at her in shock. “Martin and I aren’t together anymore.” She tells you.
“Why?” You ask her and she softens her features.
“Because I can’t stop thinking about you.” She says and you widen your eyes.
“What?”
“I look out a window where I can see you perfectly everyday, when I’m talking to Martin or kissing him then I think about you when I shouldn’t be. I think about you constantly throughout the day. Y/n, I like Martin, he’s nice.” She says and takes a deep breath before speaking again but you interrupt her.
“Then go be with him and leave me alone.” You say and try to walk away but she grabs your arm and looks at you.
“I like him but I’m falling for you.” She says and you stop breathing for a second. “I want to be with you.” She adds.
“Is this some sort of trick? Payback for snapping at you?” You ask her and she shakes her head. 
“You snapping at me broke my heart. When you asked me why I care about you, it broke me.” She tells you and you stare at her. You then lunge forward and kiss her, Chessy is shocked by the suddenness but then kisses you back immediately. You pull away once you realise what you did and you stare at her in shock.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have-” You start to say but she cuts you off by pulling you back into a kiss.
“Don’t apologise, I’ve been wanting to kiss you for a month now.” She tells you after pulling back.
“But you’re with Martin.” You tell her and she shakes her head.
“He figured out that I liked you and I told him I’d rather be with you.” She says. “But I need to know if you want to be with me.” She says. “I know you kissed me but I need words.” She adds and you smile.
“I do want to be with you, I didn’t tell you because I thought you didn’t like me that way and then you got with Martin.” You tell her and she smiles. “I did get jealous, I’m sorry I snapped at you.” You say to her and she strokes your cheek.
“I forgave you for that pretty much right after you snapped at me. I just wanted you to talk to me but I stayed away as I thought you wanted me out of your life.” 
“I did, but only because I didn’t want to have to fake a smile every time you talk to me about Martin.” You tell her and she runs her fingers through your hair.
“Well you don’t have to worry about him, I’m not with him anymore.” She says softly.
“When did you break up with him? The twins talked to me today and it seemed like you were still with him.” You ask her.
“We broke up right before I came to talk to you.” She says and you tilt your head.
“I hope I’m not some rebound.” 
“You’re not, you’re the one I’d rather be with.” She says and you lean into her touch. “You know the twins came to talk to me earlier as well. Told me that you have feelings for me, I almost couldn’t believe it.” She says and you hum.
“They just love setting people up don’t they?” You ask her and she laughs.
“I guess so, first their parents and now us.” She says and you nod. “I’m gonna get them such a great birthday gift for their meddling.” She tells you and you laugh.
“I have one question for you.” You tell her and she looks at you and nods. “Did you sleep with Martin?” You ask her and she shakes her head.
“No, I was going to but I couldn’t because I thought about you instead of him.” 
“Hmm, you must have a lot of pent up sexual energy then.” You tell her as you wrap your arms around her.
“Yes and you’re just feeding into it right now.” She tells you and you smile. “Do you live alone?” She asks and you nod.
“Well how about I tell them I’m going out for the night and you take me home with you after you’re done work? I’ll even bring supper for us to have.” She says and you smile.
“Sounds good.” You tell her and you squeeze her ass before walking away.
“You’ll pay for that later.” She tells you and you turn around to face her.
“No idea what you’re talking about.” You tell her and you wink at her before you continue walking away.
“So did you talk to her?” Hallie asks Chessy as she makes supper.
“I did.” Chessy says and then they look at her.
“And?” Annie asks.
“Well thanks to you two meddlers, she and I talked and she kissed me after I confessed.” She tells them and they smile.
“So you two are together now?” Hallie asks and Chessy nods.
“She’s bringing me to her place after she’s done work.” She tells them. “I already told Nick that I’ll be gone for the night.” 
“Well good, it’s about time. Ever since you introduced me to her I saw sparks.” Annie says to her.
“Well you’ll be getting a really nice birthday gift this year.
“And that’s in 6 weeks.” Hallie says and Annie smiles.
“Yep, October 11.” Chessy says to them and then continues making supper. 
After you’re done work, Chessy walks out with a container in her hand and meets you at your car.
“Hey you.” Chessy says and kisses you.
“Ready to go?” You ask her and she nods.
You drive to your place and then you go and unlocks the door and she follows you inside.
“Nice place.” She says.
“It’s not much but it’s home.” You tell her and she smiles.
“I think it’s perfect.” She says and then goes to the kitchen and places the food on plates before handing you one.
“Thank you.” You tell her and then you go to the kitchen table with her. “Why did we never hang out outside of work?” You ask her and she shrugs.
“Didn’t think you’d want to.” She says and you tilt your head at her. “Especially after that work friends comment you made.” She says and you frown.
“That was me wanting to hang out with you outside of work.” You tell her and she smiles.
“Well we are now so quit complaining.” She says and you give a salute.
“Yes ma’am.” You say and she snorts. 
You put the dishes in the sink after you’re both done and as soon as you turn around she kisses you. 
“And what were you wanting to do?” You ask her and she hums.
“Well we can kiss, talk or something more than kissing.” She says and you stare at her.
“You mean sex?” You ask her and she nods. “I lost count over how many times I’ve masturbated while thinking about you.” You tell her and she smiles.
“Same.” She tells you and you smile. 
“My bedroom is just down the hall.” You tell her and then bring her there. She closes the door and then you trap her between the door and you. You immediately kiss her and place your hands on her waist to bring her closer to you. You trail down to her neck and she moves her head to give you more space and you start sucking. She gasps as you leave hickeys all over her neck and you feel her legs give way so you hoist her up and lean her on the wall while her legs are wrapped around your waist. You then take her shirt off and you stare at the sight of her breasts in the bra. “I knew you had a bigger chest but wow.” You tell her and she smiles.
“There's a lot to suck on and touch.” She tells you and you reach behind her and unclip her bra. You throw it across the room and immediately attach your mouth to a nipple. She moans out as soon as you attach your mouth and she puts her hands in your hair and tugs slightly. You switch to her other nipple and you trail your hand down and undo her khakis. You get her off of you and then you immediately take her pants and underwear off. You go to kiss her again but she stops you and then she takes your shirt off. “If I’m completely naked then you have to be as well.” She says as she takes off all of your clothes. 
You go on your knees and then quickly find her clit with your tongue and you start sucking and licking. Chessy places her hand on the wall, while placing her other hand in your hand and closes her eyes and has her mouth open.
“Oh god, I forgot how good women are with their mouths.” She says and you smirk. She then yanks your hair to push your mouth off of her and she gets you on your feet. “I don’t want a mouth on me though, I want fingers inside of me. I want to feel you inside of me until I come around your fingers.” She says and you push her up against the wall while she wraps her legs around your waist. You then make sure her entrance is nice and wet before pushing a finger in and she gasps. “Insert another one.” She tells you once you start pumping and you then quickly insert a second finger and it slides in easily.
“You’re so wet Chess.” You tell her and she whimpers. “Is this what you imagined me doing to you?” You ask her and her eyes are shut again. She nods quickly and you smirk. You continue pumping in and out her and you pick up the pace when you feel her legs around you start to shake. “Are you close Chess?” You ask her and she nods again. Moans and gasps are spilling out of her mouth and you just love getting these sounds out of her. “Take your time and come when you need to.” You tell her and you feel her body tense up and she squeezes around your fingers before she comes with a gasp. 
You bring her over to your bed and cuddle her as she calms down and then she turns to you with a smile. “My god, you’re good with your tongue and your fingers.” She says with a chuckle and you smile.
“Women know what feels good on other women as they have the same body.” You tell her and she hums. She then reaches over and easily finds your clit and begins rubbing it. You buck your hips and gasp and she smirks at your actions.
“Something specific you want? Tongue or fingers?” She asks you. 
“Please stick your fingers inside of me, as well as get on top of me so I can feel your boobs on me.” You manage to get out and she giggles but does as you ask. She gets on top of you and then inserts two fingers inside of you and you moan out. It doesn’t take long until your whole body tenses and then you come on her fingers. She takes her fingers out of you, licks your juices off of her and moans at your taste. 
“Next time I’m gonna use my tongue on you if you taste this sweet.” She says with a smile and you chuckle.
The next morning you bring her to the ranch and she brings you into the kitchen with her and immediately goes to kiss you. You two make out in the kitchen until you hear someone clear their throat. She pushes you off of her and you both turn to see everyone watching you. The twins run outside with Martin and Elizabeth speaks up first.
“Have a nice night?” She asks you both.
“Yep.” Chessy says and lays her head on your chest.
“It looks like it, might want to cover up your hickeys.” Elizabeth says and Chessy looks at you.
“How many did you leave on me?” She asks you and you shrug your shoulders.
“Do you want me to count?” You ask her with a smile and she slaps your head playfully.
“Come on, since you put them on me then you’re gonna help me cover them up.” She tells you as she drags you to her room.
“So you’re not bringing me to your room to make more?” You ask her and she rolls her eyes.
“I hate you.” She tells you and you laugh.
“That’s not what you said last night.”

Napping With An Outlaw
~ A special edition of Naps With Copia ~
For @da-rulah 💙 who requested a special nap with cowboy!Mary Goore
Tumblr media
Mary Goore x Reader
While obviously not Copia this is similar to the Naps With Copia series. Just a nice soft nap with the cowboy!Mary Goore from my fic The Cardinal's Bride. You do not need to read that at all to enjoy this!
Warnings: Brief descriptions of blood and stitches, Mary is a terrible patient (and a tease), sfw, 1,400 words (thank you to @gothdaddyissues for the dividers!)
Tumblr media
“What the hell, Goore?!”
You had finally finished with your shift in the saloon.  A long day of filling drinks and slapping hands away when they got too close.  All you wanted was to wash off and crawl into bed.  A bed that you had been daydreaming about for most of the day.  Except right now your bed was occupied with the last person you wanted to see.
Especially since they were bleeding everywhere.
“Hey there, sweetheart.”
“Don’t ‘sweetheart’ me, Goore.  Why are you here?”  You took a few steps closer, your eyes widening a bit when you saw the gash on their head.  “And what the fuck happened?”
“Ran into an old friend.”  When you crossed your arms and raised an eyebrow at him Mary sighed,  “We had a little disagreement.”
“I can tell.  So, why are you here ruining my sheets?”  Mary looked a little sheepish then, picking at a tear on their pants before looking back up at you.  “The pout isn’t gonna work on me, Goore.”
“What will?”
“Nothing.  I am tired.  Too tired to deal with you bleeding all over my things.  Get out.”
“Oh come on!  You owe me!”
“Like hell I do, remember a few months ago when you came crawling back here after running into that Cardinal guy again?”  Mary winced and became very interested in the hole in his pants again.  “You’re kidding me.”
“This time wasn’t my fault.”
“Uh huh.”  You sighed and took a few steps closer, reaching out to prod at the wound on Mary’s head.  They hissed and tried to jerk away but you grabbed their chin to keep them still.  “Stop being a baby.”
“Stop poking me!”
“Do you want my help or not?”  Mary finally relented, staying still and leaning into you a little bit.  “Thank you.  Geez Mary, did you get hit by a rock or something?”
“A frying pan.”
“A fry–you know what, I don’t wanna know.  Alright, lean back ok?  I’m going to go get some clean water and the sewing kit from the Doc.”  
You ignored Mary’s groan, quickly leaving your room and heading down the hall.  The Doc would be down at the tables this time of the night so it was easy to slip into his room and grab his kit.  After getting a job here it wasn’t long before you were helping out all over the place.  While the town was relatively quiet there still was the odd bar fight or even a random shoot out from time to time.  Enough action to warrant hiring someone just in case.
When you made it back to your room Mary was still on your bed.  For a moment you were frozen, worried that they had been hurt a lot worse than you had thought.  You dropped the kit and rushed over to your bed, your hands landing on Mary’s chest and shaking him.  Mary wasn’t yours by any means, you had no doubt Mary never had trouble finding a warm bed no matter where they were.  But that didn’t stop your heart from plummeting when you thought they might be gone.
It didn’t stop you from wishing things were different.
“Ow, ow, ow!  What the shit?!”  Mary shook themselves awake, immediately swatting at your hands to get you to stop shaking him.  “I am injured here!  You’re supposed to be fixing me, not making things worse!”
Pinching their nipple wasn’t something the Doc would recommend but hearing Mary’s indignant squawk was worth it.
“Just making sure you’re alive.”  
You smiled when Mary groaned and dropped back against the bed.  They had definitely been through the ringer, whatever had happened.  You couldn’t imagine an outlaw such as The Cardinal using a frying pan of all things, but you supposed anything could be a weapon in the right hands.  Mary was thankfully still when you began cleaning the wound on their forehead.  The blood was caked in their hair so you did your best to clean it without having a tub to dunk them in.
Maybe you could talk them into a bath tomorrow.
“That feels nice.”  They were practically purring as you let your fingers rub against their scalp, trying to avoid the gash.  It would definitely need at least a few stitches.  “I knew I came to the right place.”
“I’m glad you came here too.”  That got you a lazy smile, the one that had lured you into Mary’s orbit to begin with.  “Time for the stitches.”
Mary whimpered, clenching their eyes shut as you got to work.  The gash wasn’t that bad but you knew how vain Mary could be.  It would look a lot better after this and they’d certainly whine about it a lot less.  The whole thing was over in a few minutes and after tugging Mary into a sitting position you helped them out of their shirt to clean up the rest of them as best you could.
“Mmm, I knew you’d try to get me out of my clothes.”
“You caught me, Goore.  That’s what I wanted to do the minute I saw you in my bed.”
“Anything else?”  Mary grunted when you tugged on their boots, chucking them across the room so you wouldn’t trip on them in the morning.  Their pants were next and you groaned with the effort it took to tug the stupidly tight things off their legs.  “Well, sweetheart?”
Mary was grinning at you, the only thing covering them the sheet they had pulled over their lap.  It was an attempt at modesty you weren’t used to, typically Mary spent most of their time in your room naked.  Not that you minded but it was pretty obvious by the way Mary was squinting and the yawn they just let out that Mary was in no condition for anything but a thorough cuddle.
“Actually yeah, there’s one other thing I’d like to do with you.”  Mary kept the grin as you moved closer, their hands going to your waist when you got onto the bed next to them.  You leaned forward and pressed a kiss over the stitches before dropping a few more across their face.  The strength seemed to leave Mary’s body then and you wrapped your arms around their shoulders and tugged them back down onto the bed.  “Let’s take a nap.”
“That’s not very sexy.”
“Neither is having you bleed everywhere.”
“Not bleeding any more.”
“Yeah but it’s hard to kiss you when you’re yawning constantly.”
ïżœïżœïżœOther things besides my mouth you cou–ow!  Fine!  Ok, ok I’m sorry.”  Mary let out a pained groan when you pulled your fingers away.  “Pinching an injured man, does Doc do that?”
“No, but he also doesn’t kiss his patients either.”  You reached down and pulled the blanket up over you both, your eyes trailing over Mary’s body as it disappeared underneath the fabric.  They had some new scars since you saw them last and you made a note to ask about them whenever Mary was feeling better.  For right now rest was the most important thing.  “Go to sleep Mary.”
“Hmm, I guess.”  They wiggled around in your bed, wrapping their arms around you and tugging you so your back was against their chest.  Mary’s breath ruffled the hair next to your ear making you shiver.  Their arms tightened around you in response and you couldn’t help but smile, letting yourself relax and enjoy the feeling.  “Will you be here when I wake up?”
Mary’s voice was muffled against so you turned your head to try and catch their eyes.  
“What?”  
Those gorgeous green eyes of his sluggishly opened and they gave you a lazy smile before repeating themselves.
“When I wake up?  You still gonna be here?”
“Of course, Mary.”  They let out a soft hum, tugging you back against their chest.  You felt their breath evening out as they began to fall asleep and while you were tired yourself you couldn’t help but tease them one last time.  “It’s my bed anyway.”
It was Mary’s turn to pinch you, quickly followed by his fingers digging into your sides and tickling you.  After you screeched trying to get away an unfortunately aimed elbow had him groaning and demanding mercy.  You turned in Mary’s arms, humming as you brushed their hair out of their face.  
“Terrible bedside manner.”
“My sincerest apologies, Mr. Goore.”  You kissed their pouting lips, their cheeks and their forehead until Mary settled down again, their breath evening out once more.  Right when you were on the edge of sleep yourself you smiled against Mary’s chest, murmuring a promise into their skin before sleep took you,  “I’ll make it up to you tomorrow.”

I don't unironically write pro-Melkor posts, and this one isn't what I would call pro-Melkor either, but

I have a bit of problem with late YoT. Somehow, the Silmarillion seems to say both of those:
Manwë trusted that Melkor had changed, and this is a good thing on Manwë's part. (I know much of the fandom disagrees, I do agree, but anyway let's just talk about the book)
the Noldor (especially FĂ«anor) did not trust Melkor, don't give him any gems (which they happily gave to all other Valar) and FĂ«anor doesn't want anything to do with him. And that's
 also good? Or at least not commented on in any way by the narrative?
I can see some solutions to this (in order of most likely to least likely):
Melkor was acting entitled. They would give him gems and what not if he behaved about it like all the other Valar, but he demended things, so was ignored. I could make a long digression here about being evil vs being shaped by your previous evils, and bad manners != bad morals, and "becoming better is a process" but let's now ignore this for sake of simplicity.
The Noldor should have been nicer (give him gems but fact-check his advice), but the book is edited by a Noldo (Pengolodh) who has a lot of trauma around Melkor (because the First age), so is understandably biased.
Some Noldor were in fact nicer to Melkor, but Pengolodh censored it for the abovementioned reasons.
The Noldor, especially Fëanor have a D&D-like "detect" evil ability and just knew that he was up to no good and Manwë should have listened to them
(Also, a more doylist explanation: Tolkien was writing the behavior of the Noldor based on his knowlesge of the story, not based on what they would realistically know, because genre.)
But even if the Noldor were acting lke this, being biased and discriminating against you for your past is not an excuse to murder someone's father (or anyone else) or to permanently steal their stuff. (Slightly messing with / displacing their stuff is debateable if a) you're probably designed to be the trickster of the pantheon b) the genre is somewhat fairy-tale-ish c) it may help them to learn to not value their stuff too highly — AKA my "Melkor stealing Fefe's stuff may have been a thing even if he got better" agenda).
Just in the same way as unjustly keeping your property is not an excuse for murder (no matter what oaths you swore).
Still, those behaviors aren't ok either.
(Please let's not quote the "jail-crow" situation in the comments to this: it happenned after it was known that Melkor was at his bs again, so is not really relevant. )

How to choose a pile? Take a few deep breaths  think of a number from 1 to 3. Trust your intuition to pick your number.
The piles ┊
see below in order ↮
Disclaimer ┊this is a general reading which may or may not resonate with you. Take what resonates and leave out anything that doesn’t. Feel free to choose another pile if you'd like.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PILE ONE
Dear pile 1, your person is in hermit mode. They are likely to have distanced themselves from most things. It could be because their emotions are going wild. They are out of balance right now. You might find them to be more sensitive than normal so it’s best to give them space instead of trying to provoke them. The way they feel doesn’t directly have anything to do with you but it stems from a feeling involving you. They might’ve felt inferior to you, more specifically to someone who’s quite close with you. They felt like they couldn’t keep up with the people in your circle. You guys might’ve met up with your friends or anyone you’re close with and to them it might have been a new experience. They weren’t really used to it and felt a little awkward and uncomfortable. But because they didn’t let it show, you weren’t aware of what was going on with them so you might’ve go on just naturally which might’ve hurt their feelings. The problem here lies in the miscommunication. They might’ve kept it to themselves about how they really felt then and aren’t willing to communicate openly with you about the situation they’re bothered by and you failed to ask them probably about how they sincerely feel. This causes you two to be detached from one another, could even led to coldness between you two while continuing to ignore the problem itself.
They wish to dissolve this sour environment that exists right now by coming up to you but they seem to be hesitant towards that idea. It’s not easy to step up when you’ve been hurt although they know it’s not your fault. It’s solely their own insecurity yet they would want you to make the first step to come to them and encourage them. To comfort you, they are only this way because they love you so much that they're afraid you are too good for them and that you could leave them anytime you want to. They’re really scared to even think of that thought because you’ve grown too deep into their heart which leave them to be so devastated over this. They’re sorry to have caused you stress and made you sad. They want to make up with you this instance and they crave to feel you in their arms. Take your time and run into their arms once you feel the need to do so. They are waiting for you.
Quotes & keywords: "I’m sorry", "don’t you see how devastated I am?", "I’m pathetic right?", "I’m just pretending to be ok", "I swear I don’t mean it", "I mean it", "I love you", blue (vibe), friends, meet up, gloomy, powerless

PILE TWO
Dear pile 2, your person might be a very open-minded and free-spirited person who isn’t used to commitment or dedicating themselves to someone, not after they met you, pile 2. You very much change their whole perspective on love and everything one considers as affection and tenderness. Maybe they’re used to feel ignorance or even intolerance so they didn’t know what those words mentioned above mean and felt like. But with you, they got to experience that. They’ve felt love, the feelings of being in love and being loved by you. You changed their world. They were someone who didn’t take anything seriously because to them not everything has a real meaning. Most of their life they spend being emotionless towards people they’ve encountered with because again they don’t see any purpose to get too close with anyone. They might’ve grown up in a cold and "toxic" environment, leaving them missing that warmth that human and other beings should carry in themselves so that’s one of the things why they are so pitiful. Despite that they were never disrespectful or condescending towards others. They managed to not turned into someone they’re not. They didn’t choose to be cruel, abhorred and heartless. They were the way they are simply because they didn’t master the law of love yet since they didn’t possess it. You saw their good heart from the beginning on that is hidden deep in them and you were not afraid to get near it and take it out. You did it not out of pity but solely out of compassion and empathy for one another being. They realized that your intentions were pure and trusted their own intuition to open themselves up to you. They were comforted by your gentleness and softness. Looking back now they’re really happy they did show themselves to you. Haven’t they done it they wouldn’t have a wonderful connection with someone like you. I heard a chuckle? (They’re the sweetest). They see you as their mentor for life, someone who they could follow everywhere blindly. They feel like you could lead and guide them to their purpose because you’re part of it and they wish to be with you for as long as possible. For the first time they really dream of having a family and a place where they can called their own home. They’d want you to be the mother of their future kids.
Quotes & keywords: mentor, "you’ve changed me in a beautiful way", love, life, YOU, purpose & meaning, bloodline, descendant, family, scenario turning into reality
Tumblr media Tumblr media
PILE 3
Dear pile 3, this might seem like a new love story for you. A happy and healthy one especially. Your person might be a very gentle person and they surely admire you a lot. They see you as a wholesome individual who is too precious to even exist in this harsh world. They want to nurture you from the bottom of their heart and always be there for you when you need them. They’re glad to have you in their life. They’re so thankful that you add a more positive and joyful side to their daily life. Before you entered their life they might’ve gone through a lot of difficult situations. They were totally in survival mode, defensive and hostile most of their times in order to survive, literally. They believed that the world was against them and that they only existed to suffer. But then you came and mend that pain and heal that wound of them. They’re grateful they have met you at that time when they were struggling the most and lost all their hope. They truly see you as their savior so they want to cherish and protect you now since you’ve done so much for them already. You make them happy everyday. Everyday with you in their life is a blessing. They might have evolved a lot as a person because of you. They want to do so much for you. You can see this desire and ambition of them through their efforts. They might show up randomly at your workplace to just pick you up after your shift ends or they might surprise you from time to time with gifts. They are always present and available for you. They want to change for the better for you and are working on it to become the person you’re proud to be with. They want you to know that there is still so much to them behind all the things that they’re showing to you. You can expect heartfelt gestures and expressions from them. They’ll be your dream come true like you’re for them as well.
Quotes & keywords: blessing, "you’re my dream come true", "is it my destiny to meet you?", beautiful, lover, a picture paint to live in all of the time, "watch me repeating myself", heart eyes, soft, heartbeats, exciting

murder-cookie-dust393 · 1 month ago
Note
Ok yeah I think I was too vague or something. Also yes that is a quite from a song.
Here’s some cookies I had in mind when Y/N said this:
Pure Vanilla
CrĂšme brĂ»lĂ©e 
Black Pearl
Red velvet?
Sea fairy
You can add extra if you want, but it’s optionally.
-đŸȘ‘Anon
Tumblr media
Okay so I did some brief research on the quote (because I've always never understood what it meant) but basically it means that the person doesn't wants all of the other's love. Which in this case is just feeding into the yandere idea.
I'm so sleepy so if things are weird...I'm too lazy to care.
Tw: Mentions of murder, isolation, kidnapping, nonconsensual transformation of the body, delusions, threats
Pure Vanilla
- If you don't know if this man is obsessed with you, you are inherently stupid. I've basically confirmed he is definitely one of the most obsessive ones, so you feeding into his delusions is not helping. At all.
- MC notices his (extremely obvious) attraction to them and says said quote, "Don't go wasting all your emotions, lay all your love on me". This makes him delighted, as he thinks you're accepting his delusions.
- His delusions are basically that you were meant for him and him only. You should always rely on him for any kind of help you may need. You were destined to be together.
"Oh, my darling bluebell! You really just want me to put all my attention on you, don't you? My, my, I guess I have to fulfill your requests." *smiling so creepily*
- I would imagine he would either A. Manipulate everyone into thinking you're married, or B. He isolates you from everybody. He locks you away in his castle.
CrÚme Brûlée (FINALLY SOMEONE WHO USES THE DIACRITICS)
- Bro is obviously very focused on his music 24/7. He's constantly practicing or editing his notes on what is going on musically in his sheet music. But...that doesn't mean he isn't keeping an eye on you too.
- He'll be very subtle compared to others when it comes to his yandere tendencies. He's someone who prefers to work in the shadows when it comes to his murders (he will murder 100%). The only time you'll ever see his unhinged moments are when you are alone with him, or you've been blatantly ignoring his affections. I will say, he isn't that obvious, so he can get pissy easily.
- *insert MC saying the quote*. Two things: one, he'll be so relieved and giddy that you notice his affections. Like he is literally doing twirls and jumps of joy. Second, he can narrow his focus onto the tiniest of details easily, so I can imagine he'll be a lot more obvious with his motions.
- Oh and he'll murder more. You basically accept him being a murderer.
"Huh? Why do you look so scared? Don't worry, I'm not gonna stab you or anything. I just killed Mint Choco over there for being too chatty with you." (Average Pianist moment: murdering our competitors /j)
Black Pearl
- Why the fuck would you do this. Like okay Pure Vanilla locks you away, and CrÚme Brûlée goes stabby stabby, but her??? You are literally everyone is fucked, including you.
- Just like the prior two, she'll be joyous that you're more accepting (kind of). She's much more calm about it. She just kinda giggles before threatening to take you back to the sea with her.
- That's what she does. She drags you down into the sea with her. You'll be kept some kind of structure, whether it's an abandoned ship or an underwater cave. From there, she just admires you and snuggles you a lot. Expect dead bodies as presents.
- She's not necessarily worshipful like Golden Cheese is. She's more so comfortable especially with the fact you're the first person to not have abandoned her/shut her out. More like a clingy but threatening cat.
- Like if you try to leave after what you said she'll just get pissy and destroy all the reasons you have to go back to the surface.
"Aww, now you don't have to go back up there! You can just stay here with me, in our home. You and I need some alone time..."
Red Velvet
- He's odd about it. When you feed into his illness, he's like "Why do you love me???" He assumes you love him back. He's so happy about it but also is confused over whether it's true or not.
- Regardless, he'll be more insistent on protecting you with his cake army. He doesn't want to lose the fact that you don't fear him. You want his love right? What better way than letting his cakehounds be all over you?
- The downfall to this though is that if you try to escape or anyone tries to take you back, he'll rage. He'll be irrational and try to turn you partially into a cake monster like him. He thinks you'll have to stay with him then. He prefers to mould you with a cakehound design.
- Then you'll be extra cute.
"Look at your little ears! They suit you so well. Now you're really the 2nd parent of my children."
- Cakehounds will see you as a parent no matter what.
Sea Fairy
- I read my general headcanons on her, and I think if she sees that you are accepting her actions, her guilt will go away. Then she'll be much more firm with doing anything immoral.
- I think instead of simply trapping you in her tower, she'll try to somehow make you a cookie related to the sea. She'll use her powers and permanently turn you into relying on the ocean.
- If you try to protest after she's done the transformation, she'll be confused. Didn't you say you wanted all her love? Well, this is all her love. You'll eternally have to rely on her and be within her presence.
- She'll feel guilt once more over you being distraught; however, she also feels this is your own fault for saying you want all her love. You could have said you just wanted her attention, not literally all her love.
- She'll try to comfort you after. It's a struggle though.
"Please do not be so troubled. I assure you this form will not change your identity. Only visiting your friends above the sea will be arduous."
—————————————————————————
Please do not feed into a yandere's illness. Literally you're just making a pit of doom for yourself.
Also, if you use CrĂšme BrǔlĂ©e’s diacritics I love you.
My back hurts so bad. But anyway, hope you enjoyed! I need to snooze.
- Celina

Fanfiction Author Interview Game
Thank you so much @loopyloo2610 for the tag, sorry it took so loing to get round too, holidays are so busy lol. (clean copy of the questions under the read more)
How many works do you have on AO3?
219 (though I still have three unrevealed ones in collections)
What's your total AO3 word count?
904,129 words
Your top 5 stories by kudos/likes:
Defying Death (or at least the ones in charge) Summary: Bilbo has finally died, and now Lord Mandos wants to shove him away to Lady Yavanna's Green Gardens. Well that wont do. After all, Thorin wont be in Yavanna's gardens and Bilbo wont stay where Thorin isnt. He's a burglar, and if he can smuggle his dwarves out from under Thranduil's nose, he can smuggle himself into Mahal's Halls under the Valar's noses, right?
Stop me Fading Summary: It is a few weeks after the battle, Thorin, Fili and Kili are still in danger from their wounds. Bilbo has been shunned by all, including the Company, as such there is a sad, lonely, hobbit wandering around the camps, trying to help everyone but himself.
Where in Arda is Frodo Baggins? Summary: Frodo is missing and Bilbo must go and fetch him, whilst he does that, the King under the mountain is going to get a suprise during open council.
Breeding my B.... Summary: Sirius is in heat, ready and waiting for his Alpha, so why isnt he here? Remus Lupin better hurry up.
Who's is the tie Harry? Summary: Harry was late to lesson, it was ok though. Well, until someone else realised that he didnt have a red tie, but a green one ....
Do you respond to comments?
I do, I try to respond in a timely manner, but sometimes I dnt, but I try to respind to all comments eventually.
What's the fic you've written with the angstiest ending?
Ohh, theres a few. I'm not always a HEA writer. Amd I'm am going to go with one of my Dis-centric fics. She is such a tragic character who deserves all the love but gets ignored because she is so tragic and often isn't the main focus of a ship.
Mahal, Why Have you Forsaken Me? Summary: Dis is packing up the things of her children's that she will take to Erebor with her. Things they will never need again. Things that are all she has left of them.
What's the fic you've written with the happiest ending?
Ohh, I have lots of those too, but maybe this one, its just 900 words of pure fluff and happines and love!
After a hard day, there is always you to come home to Summry: Thorin has had hard day, being king can be tiresome. It's a good job he has a loving hobbit back in ther chambers with a suprise for him.
Do you write crossovers?
I do, I currently have a Witcher/Sweet Tooth fic up - Of Witcher's and Songbirds and their wings A Hobbit/Harry Potter wip up - I want you right here, where you belong:Home with us A completed Harry Potter/Alien fic - Moonlit Terror: Xenomorphs in the Wizarding World A Gigolas/Deep Rock Galactica fic - In the Darkness, You are My Shining Star And a Wolfster/Judge Judy fic (dont judge me, ha) - Judge Judy: Wolfstar edition
Have you ever received hate on a fic?
I have, or at least comments that just upset or annoyed me. But im a firm believer that the block button is my friend and I will press it happily!
Do you write smut?
Yes, but not well and not comfortably. I have a few smut fics (mostly Harry Potter) and well, they are not my favourite of my own fics, thats the sad truth of it.
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
No, not that I know of.
Have you ever had a fic translated?

What's your all-time favorite ship?
Its a tie between Bagginshield and Wolfstar
What's a WIP that you want to finish but don't think you ever will?
I don't think I have one. I plan t finsh ALL my wips, its just some are taking longer than others
What are your writing strengths?
I'm good at angst and feels I think.
What are your writing weaknesses?
Editing, editing sucks!
I am a dyslexic, ADHD Roma writer (a language that has NO written form so thats fun) and you should see my drafts. it takes me hours (often days) to edit and I know there are still issues, but what can you do?
What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
I love t, give me all the endearments, all the swearing, all the rants! (especially if people use the underline thingy and i dont have toscroll to the bottom of the chap for the translation)
What's a fandom/ship you haven't written for yet but want to?
I really want to write a Redwall fic, or a Ardeth Bay/Jonathan from The Mummy fic, I might even get round to it on 2025
What's your favorite fic you've written?
This will come as no suprise to those who know me but ...
It Was Never What It Seemed Summary: It has been 8 years since Bilbo has lest stepped foot in Erebor. He needs to talk to his husband, especially as he is now about to marry another. Another who is not Bilbo.
Bilbo left and when he did he left Thorin broken hearted. Now he is to marry a Blacklock Princess, consequences be damned.
Follow along with our favourite dwarf and hobbit as they find their way back to one another, No matter how painful the journey is. This fic also gets another huge thank you to @sunnyrosewritesstuff, not just for the title help, but the support and help she provided whilt I was writting this overly emotional and very personal fic. SO thank you Sunny, I appreciate it so much!
Also, big shout out to @lisellelascelles for helping me answer the questions, I have so many fics I was a bit ... umm ... lol. No pressure tags (ofc) for @lisellelascelles, @littleoldrachel, @shipper47, @shantismurf, @sunnyrosewritesstuff, @winn-wynn

Scrolling through comments on a vox cosplay video and saw someone saying in the replies "oke sided radio static is called one way broadcast cause radio silence is the name of a book" or something along those lines
Which one of y'all was it, hello?
I don't use tiktok
why are you bothered by this
"Which one of y'all was it, hello?" as if there's anything wrong with the comment? they were just trying to raise awareness of the tag clashing issue even if realistically with how widespread it is by now it's near impossible to get everyone to switch. you don't want to listen? that's fine. ignore it.
I think I know who you're talking about but some of y'all are too meanspirited over a request for a simple tag change. I've seen them get clowned on twitter for it and they've said they've gotten literal death threats over it. like I know some of y'all may find it annoying but it is really not serious enough to warrant bullying.
the reason for it is literally just wanting to have consideration for another fandom because the tag clashes with that fandom's book name. they're not harming anyone so I genuinely do not see the issue here.
EDIT: apparently anon meant it as a joke and I didn’t realise whoops. no beef here! but the clowning on twitter and death threats are very real, I do still want to speak out against that

Tumblr media
@lurkingshan Ok. So I haven't really been in QL land long enough to have watched a lot of under the radar ql stuff to be honest. The OJBL journey is the thing that really is helping me discover more stuff or when someone else recommends something.
Also before I start a couple of things. I don't really know if any of this is obscure or not to be fair. I guess these are things that I had to go look for because I'd never heard of them. But that's me. Second thing. Outside tumblr I don't really know what's ql or not. The only distinction I really make is asian queer media or western. So, sorry for my ignorance in this. This is just some of the ones I watched not too long ago I guess.
Speaking of my ojbl journey. You already talked about No Touching at All recently. But I'll take this opportunity to plug another one that I really like and I wish more people watched was
Ai no Kotodama
Tumblr media
The wonderful @twig-tea is my guide through this endeavour and when she told me about this one she also said that it was left out of a lot of rec lists at the time for a couple of reasons.
I'm gonna try to not spoil anything but I really don't understand. I loved the editing in this and how they used everything around the couple to mirror them and work for the love story. Everything serves a purpose here and it's all very deliberate. Sure it's a bit older (lol) and maybe some people are turned off by superficial factors but I really liked it and I loved the progression of these two idiots obviously in love.
Silhouette of Your Voice
Tumblr media
I adored this one. Think Last Twilight but Japanese and they didn't screw up anything. One of them is losing his hearing and the other is just a sunshine that will work for his lunch. They are precious. And I think this one might qualify as bl. A warning to anyone who might see this: If you have sensitive ears, do not watch this with headphones. Because at times the sound we hear is the sound Kohei hears and it's not pleasant.
Twilight's Kiss aka Suk Suk
Tumblr media
I love when I get to watch love stories between older people. It's just a great reminder that there's life as long as you're living. And life doesn't end at 30, or 40, or 50 or whatever it is that you've been been told to believe. Also queer older people is even rarer so when I found this one I had to watch it. I loved it so much. There's so many great moments, I love the tenderness of the mains, and the conversations around the gay retirement home and the music, I loved the music so much.
Another caveat (because obviously I have issues and need to explain myself a lot). I love my rose-tinted glasses but at heart, I live for the sad stories.
In Between Seasons
Tumblr media
I cried so good during this one. It's a story about waiting and about using time to accept, and forgive and heal. It's about family and coming together. And it's beautiful. But it's no bl and it's sad, so fair warning.
That's all I got for now. If I remember more I'll share. I might need to start posting more about films I watch if for no other reason that I would have gifs to use on my own posts. 💜

The new batfam member
Edit I kinda went overboard and wrote a 43-page document so I'm just posting the whole document for those who want the first season of what I'm just deciding to turn into a comic
OK hear me out, since it looks like Damian is giving up the Robin mantle I’m introducing my OC as the possible new Robin, and a new member of the Batfam
CHARACTER
NAME: Orson Hillingham
BACKGROUND: Court of Owls elite trained talon taught not only martial arts but magic and engineering as well
PERSONALITY: He is a noble and behaves like it he is also a weapon (always follows orders), who has never received love
DESCRIPTION: A black-haired 10-year-old with golden eyes and a very fit composure(See Image 1) 
Here is how I imagine him meeting
Scene 1: The Batcave
(Bruce is reviewing crime scene photos of the massacred gangsters. Jason enters, pulling off his helmet.)
Jason: Hey, B. I came as soon as I heard. What's this mission about again? Bruce: Gangsters are disappearing. Jason: (smirking) Ain’t that a good thing? Bruce: No. Especially if I’m right about who’s behind it.
(Bruce pulls up a screen displaying the Court of Owls insignia. Jason’s smile fades.)
Scene 2: The Iceberg Lounge
(Penguin’s henchmen are torturing a kidnapped millionaire in the center of the lounge. The sound of glass shattering above grabs their attention. Batman descends through the skylight, landing with precision as chaos erupts around him. The henchmen panic, some reaching for weapons.)
Henchman 1: (nervously) Oh no, it’s the Bat!Henchman 2: (grabbing a gun) Come on, Batsy! Let’s see what you’ve got!
(Before he can aim, a clawed gauntlet emerges from the shadows, impaling him in the chest. The figure steps into the light—a young Talon, impeccably dressed in fine attire, a mask covering his face, and a flowing cloak trailing behind him.)
Batman: Talon. Stop this. You don’t have to do this.
(Talon ignores him, moving his hands and chanting in an otherworldly language. An ethereal duplicate materializes and starts making its way toward the millionaire, killing every henchman in its path. Batman leaps into action, taking down remaining henchmen with precision strikes.)
(Red Hood crashes through a side window, landing beside Batman.)
Red Hood: (smirking) Looks like someone isn’t in the mood for small talk.
(Jason fires six rounds at Talon. Talon raises a hand, and spectral owls materialize, intercepting the bullets mid-air. Talon lunges at Batman with clawed boots, narrowly missing as Batman counters.)
(The room is now littered with unconscious or dead henchmen. Talon’s ethereal double reaches the kidnapped millionaire, ripping his heart out before dissolving into dark mist. With a flick of his wrist, Talon reabsorbs the energy.)
(Talon surveys the room, ensuring everyone is either unconscious or dead. Satisfied, he turns to Batman.)
Talon: (calmly) There. Now we can talk freely. No witnesses.
Batman: (narrowing his eyes) Talk? What are you playing at?
Talon: (slowly circling Batman) You’re predictable, Bruce. You show up, save the day, spout your moral code, and leave. That’s how you’ve always operated.
(Jason freezes mid-reload, glancing at Batman in surprise.)
Red Hood: (growling) What did you just say?
Talon: (smirking) Oh, don’t worry. The Court of Owls doesn’t know who you are, I’ve read every file. Bruce Wayne is a billionaire playboy by day and a masked vigilante by night. And your little band of misfit children? Amateurs.
(Batman’s expression hardens, but his voice remains calm.)
Batman: If you know who I am, I don’t take threats lightly.
Talon: (tilting his head) A threat? No, Bruce. This is simply a courtesy. A chance to say goodbye before the Court sends someone less... reasonable.
(Jason steps forward, gun raised.)
Red Hood: (coldly) Reasonable? You’ve got a weird definition of the word, kid.
Talon: (ignoring him) You’re an interesting man, Bruce. You claim to fight for justice, but your hypocrisy is astounding. How many lives have been ruined by breaking their will or throwing them in a wheelchair? Not to say about your murderous son standing next to you (Batman takes a step closer, his voice low and commanding.)
Batman: You don’t know me. You don’t know what I’ve sacrificed.
Talon: (leaning in slightly) I know enough. And I know you won’t kill me, no matter how much you want to.
(Talon suddenly moves, firing claw-tipped projectiles at Batman’s feet. He follows with a swift grapple kick, forcing Batman to jump back. Jason opens fire, but Talon summons another flock of spectral owls, deflecting the bullets. The battle resumes, with Talon using fireballs and acrobatics to keep both Batman and Red Hood at bay.)
(Eventually, a stray fireball rebounds off a mirror, detonating explosives near Talon. The blast sends him flying, knocking him unconscious. Batman catches him before he hits the ground, while Jason takes out the remaining henchmen who are regaining consciousness.)
(As the dust settles, Jason looks at the unconscious Talon.)
Red Hood: (gritting his teeth) What’s the plan, B? He knows everything.
Batman: (hoisting Talon over his shoulder) We take him back to the cave. He’s more valuable alive.
(Jason watches as Bruce carries Talon out of the wreckage, his expression conflicted.)
Scene 3: Wayne Manor – Guest Room
(Talon(still wearing the mask) wakes up in a guest room, disoriented. Batman, now unmasked as Bruce Wayne, stands at the foot of the bed.)
Bruce: You’re safe here. I know you probably don’t want to talk, but I need to know—how did you figure it out? Talon: (coldly) You’re the only person in Gotham with the money, motivation, and manpower to be Batman.
(He looks around, realizing where he is.)
Talon: Wayne Manor. Bruce: Yes. Talon: I need to return to the orphanage. They’ll worry if I don’t report back. Bruce: You’re an orphan? Talon: (matter-of-factly) Yes. And since I have no direct orders to kill you, I’ll be going now.
(Talon leaves.)
Montage: Orson’s Encounters with the Bat Family
(Talon—revealed as Orson Hillingham—carries out missions for the Court of Owls while frequently crossing paths with the Bat family. Despite their clashes, Orson watches them longingly from the shadows. His gaze lingers on their camaraderie, their family dynamic. Each member of the Bat family notices.)
Scene 4: Orphanage Visit
(Bruce, fully in his "Brucie Wayne" persona, visits the orphanage with reporters in tow.)
Reporter: Mr. Wayne, don’t you think you already have enough children? Bruce: (charming smile) Can you ever have too much family?
(Inside, Bruce meets the receptionist.)
Receptionist: Mr. Wayne, we pride ourselves on treating our children with dignity and respect. If you’re here to adopt, I suggest another institution. Bruce: (lowering his voice) I’m here for Orson Hillingham.
(Orson, overhearing this, emerges from the shadows.)
Orson: I’ll speak with him. In private.
(In a meeting room, Orson shuts down Bruce’s comms with a hidden device.)
Orson: What do you want, Mr. Wayne? Bruce: You can drop the act. We both know who we are. Orson: Fine. What do you want? Bruce: To help you. The Court isn’t a safe environment for a kid. Orson: (scoffing) And jumping off rooftops with your circus is?
(Bruce pauses, trying a different approach.)
Bruce: Why do you follow their orders? Orson: It’s all I’ve ever known, whoever owns me legally gets to give them, and that is the court, unless
 you’re offering to give me orders yourself?
(Bruce doesn’t answer immediately. Orson smirks and presses the button, reactivating Bruce’s comms.)
Scene 5: Wayne Manor – Dinner
(Bruce invites Orson to dinner at the manor, where the Bat family gathers. Jason cooks, and the group shares stories. Orson remains mostly silent but observes their interactions with a mix of envy and curiosity. For the first time, he laughs softly at one of Dick’s jokes.)
Scene 6: First Mission as Duskhaunt
(Oracle’s voice comes through the Bat-family comms as the team prepares for their first mission with Orson Hillingham, codenamed "Nocturne.")
Oracle: Alright, team. Your mission is to stop the drug deal at BlĂŒdhaven docks. Nocturne, stick to the rule—no killing.
Nocturne(wearing a stealth suit with a scarf as a mask covering the upper half of his face): (calmly) Understood.
(Orson uses his magic abilities to move himself and Nightwing to the rooftop of a warehouse overlooking the docks. Red Hood and Red Robin take up ground positions as Batman coordinates from a distance.)
Nightwing: (smirking) Fancy moves, kid. Ever thought about joining the circus?
Nocturne: (flatly) That is unlikely.
Red Hood: (over comms) Enough banter, lovebirds. Let’s focus.
(The team scopes out the operation below: armed thugs loading crates onto a ship. Batman gives the signal.)
Batman: Nightwing, Nocturne—create a diversion. Red Robin, Red Hood, and I will secure the cargo.
(Nightwing leads the charge, flipping into the fray with acrobatic flair. Orson follows, striking with surgical precision, disarming and incapacitating thugs without killing.)
Nightwing: (grinning) Not bad, Nocturne. Keep this up, and you might make me proud.
Nocturne: ..
(Things take a turn when a thug grabs Tim from behind, pressing a knife to his throat. Nightwing is momentarily distracted, and another thug lands a brutal blow, knocking him to the ground. Before Nightwing can recover, he’s pinned by two thugs, one raising a crowbar to strike.)
Thug 1: (yelling) One move, and the birdies die!
(Orson freezes, his sharp gaze darting between the thugs and his teammates in danger. Slowly, he pulls out his Talon mask, slipping it on. His demeanor shifts instantly, and he steps forward, his claw gauntlets gleaming.)
Thug 2: (nervously) What the hell is that kid doing?
Thug 1: Don’t care—kill him!
(Before they can act, Orson lunges, claw gauntlets slashing. He moves with lethal precision, incapacitating the thug holding Tim with a brutal strike to the shoulder. The thug screams as he falls, dropping the knife. Orson turns his attention to the thugs pinning Nightwing, his strikes becoming faster and more brutal.)
Nightwing: (struggling to stand) Orson! Don’t—
(Orson doesn’t stop. His movements are ruthless, and blood begins to stain his gauntlets. One thug drops to the ground, clutching his side. Orson’s focus shifts to the next target, raising his claws for a finishing blow—when Batman appears, grabbing his wrist mid-strike.)
Batman: (commanding) Orson. That’s enough.
(Orson freezes, his breathing heavy. The Talon mask hides his expression, but his hesitation is palpable. Batman’s grip tightens as he speaks, his voice low and firm.)
Batman: We don’t kill. Ever.
(Orson glances at the unconscious Nightwing and the terrified Red Robin, then at the bloodied thugs around him. Slowly, he lowers his arm and removes the Talon mask, saving it in his cloak.)
Nocturne: (quietly) They would have killed him.
Batman: (calm but stern) And you stopped them. But we do it our way.
(Red Hood approaches, smirking at the scene.)
Red Hood: (mockingly) Gotta say, kid, for a second there, I thought you were gonna join my side of the argument.
Nightwing: (weakly) You’re not... helping, Jason.
(Orson stands silently, his face unreadable. Batman steps closer, his tone softening slightly.)
Batman: (to Orson) You made the right choice stopping. This is part of being in the family—learning restraint.
(Orson nods, but his eyes remain distant. The team regroups, leaving the thugs subdued but alive as they head back to the Batcave for debriefing.)
Scene 7: Orson’s Nightmare
(Orson lies in his bed at the orphanage, his scarf covering the upper half of his face, the faint moonlight casting long shadows across the room. The sounds of the night outside are distant, and within the orphanage, the stillness is unnerving. Orson drifts into a fitful sleep, his nightmares creeping in.)
(The scene flickers, shifting between the dim, candle-lit halls of the orphanage and the darker, more oppressive chambers of the Court of Owls. The orphanage is a strange place: to the outside world, it's a haven for wealthy children, an exclusive institution that promises a future of privilege. But beneath the surface, it is a breeding ground for the Court’s future Talons. The walls are adorned with symbols of the Court, and the children are raised not just to learn but to serve a darker purpose.)
(Young Orson, barely 5 years old, walks the shadowed hallways of the orphanage. His steps are quiet, almost imperceptible. The other children here are older, and their eyes gleam with the cold, calculating look of those being groomed for something far more sinister. They are being trained to follow the Court’s commands—some, like Orson, will be Talons, but not all of them have been marked for the lethal training.)
Court of Owls (echoing from the darkness, whispering): You are ours, Talon. The orphanage is yours—our children, our legacy. You will be the weapon we need. Obey, and you will become more than just a shadow. You will be the darkness itself.
(Orson’s eyes are wide with the weight of the Court’s words, but he is too young to understand the full extent of their plans. He sees the older children—rich, and entitled, but with a coldness that betrays their age. They are already learning combat, strategy, and espionage. They don’t learn magic as he does—no, they are being prepared for brutal roles, but they don’t have his talent. Their eyes are empty, their hearts trained to obey.)
(Orson walks through the corridors of the orphanage and enters the training room. Here, children are sparring, testing their limits, each one growing stronger in their silent obedience to the Court’s will. Among them is a young boy, 10 years older than Orson, but his movements are sharp, his body precise. Orson knows his face—the boy is one of the Court’s chosen, a future Talon in training. But there’s something cold in his eyes, a reminder of what Orson’s future will be if he’s not careful.)
(In the corner of the room, the Court’s voice whispers again, this time more urgent.)
Court of Owls (voice growing more insistent): You belong to us, Talon. Do not defy us. You will not be allowed to leave. The orphanage will burn with all inside it if you fail. There is no escape. Only obedience.
(Suddenly, the scene shifts. Orson is standing on the balcony of the orphanage, looking down at a flaming inferno consuming the building. The fire dances in the night, casting long, menacing shadows on the walls. Screams fill the air as the children trapped inside cry out for help, but the doors are locked, the windows sealed shut. There’s no way out. Orson stands frozen as the Court’s laughter words in his ears.)
Court of Owls (mocking): This is your future if you defy us, Talon. Everything you hold dear will be taken. The fire will reach everyone you care about. The orphanage, your only family, will burn. You have no choice. You will obey.
(The flames rise higher, scorching the sky. Orson feels the heat of the fire, but he can’t move, can’t act. The Court’s words are like chains holding him in place.)
(The scene flashes back to the training room, where the older children are still sparring. The instructors, faceless and unyielding, watch over them. They don’t see the destruction outside. Orson turns to see one of the older boys—another Talon, a few years older than him—staring at him with an unsettling calm. His eyes are empty, distant, but there’s something in the boy’s gaze that hints at the darkness consuming them all.)
Older Talon (calm, emotionless): You’ll be one of us soon. It’s not that bad. They’ve trained us to kill, to obey. The Court will give us everything we need. You won’t have to worry about the fire if you just do as they say.
(But Orson can’t shake the feeling that he’s already lost something—his childhood, his innocence. The Court has taken it all, shaping him into something else.)
Constantine, who was his magic teacher (his voice rings out, distant but clear): (yelling from the past) This is what they’ll do to you, kid! They’ll use you up until there’s nothing left, and when they’re done, they’ll throw you away! Don’t let them win.
(The flames flare higher, and Orson watches as the orphanage crumbles under the weight of the Court’s control. The other children are oblivious to the fire, lost in their training, and trapped by the same fate. Orson can’t escape. There’s nowhere to run. He’s a prisoner in the very place that’s supposed to protect him.)
(Orson wakes with a start, gasping for air, drenched in sweat. His small hands shake as he pulls the scarf tighter around his face. The nightmare lingers in his mind, the echo of the Court’s control wrapping tighter around him. He looks around the room, the quiet of the orphanage now feeling like a prison.)
Orson (whispering to himself, shaking his head): I can’t... I won’t let them win. I won’t be their weapon. I’ll find a way out.
(But as he lies back, the shadows of the room seem to move, the Court’s presence always watching, always waiting.)
Scene 8: A Month Later - The Adoption
(A month has passed since Orson's unsettling nightmares and the encounters with Bruce. The orphanage has grown quieter, and Orson, once distant and cold, has gradually adjusted to his new life under Bruce's care—though the weight of the Court's control still haunts him. His movements are now more relaxed, but his eyes are sharper, constantly scanning his surroundings for threats.)
(Inside Wayne Manor, Orson stands near the grand fireplace in the study, his small figure silhouetted against the roaring fire. Bruce is seated at his desk, flipping through papers, a brief pause in his work. The sounds of the mansion are quiet, but a sense of tension hangs in the air—Orson is about to speak of the burden he's been carrying, one he can no longer ignore.)
Orson (quietly, his voice steady but heavy):Bruce... I need to tell you something.
(Bruce looks up from his papers, sensing the weight of the moment. Orson stands in front of him, his posture slightly stiff, but there's an underlying urgency in his expression—something more than just a child’s typical fear.)
Bruce (setting down the papers, his gaze soft but intent):What’s wrong, Orson?
Orson (hesitating for a moment, then speaking with quiet conviction):The Court of Owls... they're not finished with me. And now that I’m not tied to the orphanage anymore... I’m worried they might come for you.
(Bruce remains silent, watching Orson closely, sensing that this is the kind of conversation that doesn’t come easily to the boy. Orson’s golden eyes flicker with a certain fear, but also with defiance—a fire burning deep within that refuses to be extinguished.)
Orson (continuing, his tone more serious):They control the orphanage now. All the children there... they’re part of the Court. I’m not the only one they’ve trained. They’ve used the orphanage to make sure that no one can escape them. If you think the others are safe, you’re wrong. They're part of it. They won’t die, not unless they betray the Court... and I know they won’t.
(His gaze darkens, a shadow of guilt flickering through his eyes. He’s not connected to the orphanage anymore, but part of him can’t shake the feeling that he should have done more to protect the others.)
Bruce (softly, but with authority):So, you're telling me that the Court is still a threat, even now that you're here?
(Orson nods solemnly. He steps closer, his gaze unwavering as he looks up at Bruce, as though trying to gauge how much Bruce truly understands the gravity of his situation.)
Orson (voice tightening with concern):They’ve already marked me. I can’t go back. If I step out of line, if I even think about going back there... they’ll burn everything down again. They won’t hesitate. But... (pauses, his voice lowering) you’re now a target. They will come for you. They’re watching. They're always watching. Even if I’m no longer with them, they’ll make sure you’re... collateral damage.
(Bruce listens carefully, his expression steady but hardening as he absorbs the threat. The room feels colder, the weight of Orson’s words sinking in. Orson isn’t just a scared, trained killer anymore. He’s someone who understands the stakes—someone who’s lived in the shadows of the Court, seeing firsthand the depth of their cruelty.)
Bruce (leaning forward slightly, his voice low and calm):Orson, you don’t need to worry about me. The Court can’t touch me if they don’t know where to find me. I’ve dealt with them before.
(Orson shakes his head, his small fists clenched tightly by his sides. The anger that burns inside him is palpable.)
Orson (forcefully, though his voice remains measured):You don't understand! They will make it personal. I’m not a pawn anymore, I’m a loose thread. If they think I’m a risk—if they think you’re a risk—they won’t hesitate to destroy you, and they'll make sure I’m the one to do it. They won’t stop until everyone who stands in their way is gone.
(Orson takes a breath, visibly calming himself. The urgency of the warning hasn’t left his tone, but there’s a deeper sadness in his eyes now, as though he’s resigned to the burden of what he’s about to say.)
Orson (quietly):You’re not just in danger because of me, Bruce. You’re in danger because of who you are. The Court sees you as a threat. They’ve been watching you for years.
(Bruce stands, walking slowly over to Orson, his eyes softening as he looks down at the boy. Orson, despite his words, still carries the weight of being part of a family that was never his. His posture is tense, but he’s standing in front of Bruce as if pleading for understanding.)
Bruce (gently):Orson, I’ve known the Court of Owls for a long time. They don’t control me. I control my own destiny. And now, you do too. The past doesn’t define you, and neither will the Court.
(Orson looks up at Bruce, his eyes filled with a mixture of fear and relief. He wants to believe him—wants to believe that his new life here with Bruce can shield him from the darkness of his past.)
Orson (softly, a quiet fear still lingering in his voice):But they will keep coming, won’t they? It doesn’t matter how far I run, they’ll always know where I am. They won’t stop until I’ve... until I’ve killed everyone they’ve marked.
(Bruce crouches down, placing a hand on Orson’s shoulder, a rare moment of warmth between them. His voice is firm, unyielding, but it holds a promise,a promise that Orson will never have to face this darkness alone.)
Bruce (with quiet determination):No, Orson. They won’t stop until we make them. And I’m not letting you face this alone. Not now. Not ever.
(For a brief moment, Orson’s tense shoulders loosen, the unspoken fear lifting just enough to let him believe, believe that maybe, for once, he has someone who will protect him, someone who will stand by him no matter what.)
