"'I think', began Pooh, 'that there should be more Trans Women in the Forest, don't you, Piglet?' "Piglet thought about this for a moment. 'Pooh,' he said slowly, 'is this your way of telling me Something?'"
— 'Winnie the Pooh, Chapter XII'

Round 2, Match 8
Clary Fairchild and Sebastian Morgenstern (The Shadowhunter Chronicles) vs The Sanderson Sisters (Hocus Pocus)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda under break
Clary Fairchild and Sebastian Morgenstern
TW for incest
Children of divorce (except technically their parents never legally divorced dad faked his death and raised Sebastian while mom ran away while she was pregnant with Clary). Sebastian was fed demon blood in the womb and that plus his dad’s A+ parenting plus his mom wishing she’d killed him as a baby gave him a twisted perception of love. Clary on the other hand received angel blood and was raised without knowledge of her brother or any magic stuff. Sebastian has an unhealthy view of Clary where he sees her as someone who is supposed to love him, and not just as a sister. His plan to raise a demon army and rule the world also involved her ruling alongside him despite her absolutely not wanting that. Clary in the end kills Sebastian with a magic sword that burns away all the evil in him, leaving behind not enough ‘good’ to survive any longer than is necessary for some last words that fuck Clary and their mom up by showing an alternate version of him that isn’t an evil demon prince.
--------
When Sebastian/Jonathan first found out about Clary he hoped she would be like him & was disappointed she wasn't. He changed his mind when she killed their father & didn't lose a wink of sleep over it. They're on opposite side of a war that they basically inherited from their father. Who btw experimented on them in the womb by giving Jonathan demon blood & Clary angel blood (accidentally). Clary is the only person Jonathan cares about & when he was at the height of his power he wanted her to his queen (yes in a weird way) & she pretended to join him. Instead she betrayed him & killed him, and she quoted Judas betraying Jesus when she did.
---------
It's been a while but from what I remember: Sebastian first introduces himself under another identity posing as a good guy and seduces Clary (yes, his sister) only to betray them all when he reveals who he is. When he returns two books later, he has kidnapped Clary's boyfriend, forcing him to carry out his evil plans, He threatens the lives of people Clary cares about several times, makes continuous attempts to seduce her (I'm pretty sure he tries to rape her at one point) , and in the last book he kidnaps Clary's stepfather. You know, the basic things you'd expect from an evil older brother that you didn't know you had 🤷🏻
The Sanderson Sisters - Winifred, Mary, and Sarah Sanderson
Witches just trying to kills some children and live forever in their evil-witchy ways. Also they are enemies of Winnie the Pooh!

Tagged by @afterthegreatunknown, thank you <3 I hope it's alright I'm making a new post - the previous reblog chain was getting kinda too long for my liking. (I picked a copy of The Unauthorized Autobiography in your poll, by the way - I've only read it as a pdf file, would love to leaf through the actual physical book)
Tagging @balkanballad, @babaroqa, @carnivorous-horses-lover, and @edelweiss-maiden (if you want to, of course)

The fake Winnie the Pooh quotes are getting too hard to forgive at this point. The book is funny and wry and not cutesy or anything. Please please please read it. It’s for 6 year olds.

give-grian-rights is a hermitshipper
Hold that thought
Thinking of how Grian is a meow meow and Taurtis is a bark bark. Perfect for each other, but what about Sam? What is he?
In Tokyo Soul ‘Dragon Ball Z!!’ #37 with timestamp 20:15, Grian says that Sam is his dog and Sam lists all the things he does as a dog with a suit and all agree (including UnstoppableLuck) that Sam is a dog. Does this mean Sam is a bark bark?
We need to look further in
Back in Yandere Highschool when they were still in the small town, everyone called him nicknames such as Bunny Boy, Carrot Boy, My Beloved Rabbit, Mario, Ruler of the Universe Boy (I was reading the wiki for the nicknames and accidentally put this in, this is when their classmate Igbar got possessed by Cthulhu and told Sam that he was gonna destroy the world at the end), and Disappointment from probably Grian one time. Does this also mean he might be a bun bun? Will he be replacing Chris Pratt in the new Super Mario movie? Or will he cause another world reset? But we sure know he’s a disappointment with his harsh crimes of playing Roblox in his downhill due to not giving us his credit card info when he got Robux
But let’s look more further in
Yandere Highschool reveals once more that in the small Halloween Arc, Sam is wearing satan horns and tail with red hot sauce eye contacts (the red hot sauce contacts isn’t canon in this, it’s from his old Winnie the Pooh series where he wore the same outfit and had that excuse for his red eyes, this time it’s because of the exhaustion of Yuki hunting him down after the Prom Arc and haven’t felt peace ever since) as a costume but reveals in ‘Halloween Special!’ #2 of the small arc in timestamp 4:20 of when Grian pulls the tail that it’s real. And Grian laughed about it. How sussy of him. And in the same episode in timestamp 7:25 it’s also revealed that Sam is the tallest, which is sus. Does this mean Sam is satan? Satan sounds pretty tall and probably the only being that wants his lover to fight someone in the streets
Come further down with me
The series packs so much lore for Disappointment, especially in ‘Bring Your Dad to School’ #76 where Kazoo Papá (it’s Grian but since they killed Yuki’s real father in a dumpster they had to improvise so Yuki and Taurtis wouldn’t find out, also it’s revealed that Karu (Yuki’s father) is Taurtis’ ‘son’ but it’s fake yet Taurtis still believes it due to his parenting abandonment issues in a young age in another series called Yandere) saw Sam’s father for the first time and quote “..didn’t even know Sam had a dad…. I assumed he sort of hatched out of the ocean or something..” and Sam also says he has a tail but tucks it between his legs. Rabbit tails are usually small and cannot go down that far, especially when it’s revealed in Tokyo Soul ‘I hate Jason!’ #12 in timestamp 13:41 when ShipCaptainSion asked Sam and Grian if they have booty treasure but misread it as Grian said “Well Sam’s got the finest booty in this entire store” and was ordered by Sam to slap it after. And due to how they reacted, it seems like the trio all have nice asses. Now back to the tail being tucked in, it might as well be a fish tail from the curve of the ass being too big for a normal rabbit tail to actually be tucked in between the legs. And Sam at a young age does seem to like baths, and even fake drowning to get some ladies attention, not even actually drowning
But what about that time in Tokyo Soul ‘The Dark Lord Cthulhu!’ #38 in timestamp 0:00 where he gave birth to a raw chicken in the boys bathroom and named it after Grian’s real name, Charlie? Who knows, but we do know Grian likes the name with no reason
In conclusion, Sam could be any type of animal. He could be a bark bark, a bun bun, a gup gup, or satan himself. Or maybe a milf chicken.
And whatever you do, don’t give him a carrot. Mario isn’t safe, none of us are safe. The Samgladiator lore is intense and we didn’t even talk about the time were he poisoned his crush

Sambucky — ya’aburnee // يقبرني ❤️
ya’aburnee - يقبرني
ship: sam/bucky | warnings: hurt/comfort, angst
a/n: ahh slr!! i was working on something else :) hope this suffices, tiana!!
materlist / ko-fi / commissions
Tumblr media
Bucky Barnes was immortal. He didn't know this. No one knew this, not even the god he prayed to. All that is known by the gods is that he should've prayed more for mercy, as love is just as sharp as the jab of a knife. Bucky's death will bleed onto his lover.
No one knew how easy people like Sam Wilson were. They die faster, Bucky thinks, because they live recklessly, hiding from death's swinging ax. Benevolent, maybe even cunning. They faked death twice and fucked them into a sweat.
Maybe that's why it's harder to withstand the fall. The Reichenbach Fall, waterfall, the romantic fall, the wall, the wall— the fall, the fall—
When Bucky looked into the mirror of his bathroom, he saw himself. Lines beneath his eyes like the separations of each of earth's layers, eye bags gone but faint and blended into his complexion. His nose is crooked from battles but the scar on his lip tip is still there and it doesn't itch much anymore. His eyes were still a faint blue, the black parts hazy with age. His hair, though, hasn't changed.
He doesn't look much like a human, more of a wax figurine left on a shelf for a certain amount of time.
His hand reaches for a razor and he shaves his entire beard and mustache. He's looking quite younger but still like a figurine.
You know, he's noticed a bunch of times, but for someone out of their own original timeline, he sure does fit well with Sam Wilson.
In fixing the boat, taking long dinners outside in the backyard, watching classic movies until night turns into day. They stay close to each other, like the end of feathers sinking into a bird's skin. Painful to remove, the burden of it all. When Bucky places his hand in Sam's, the hand feels too solid.
Maybe it's the nerves. Bucky hopes it's the nerves.
They go well together, like leaves and flowers. They have their own lives but they fit into each other's existence as if deities were to fold in the nature of existence into their hand. As if it was meant to be. No one can say otherwise. Even atheists can believe.
Now, Bucky doesn't believe in saints but he prays either way. He wishes in between whispers that Sam Wilson may outlive him because god the pressure of his death will kill him either way. It's like that fucking Winnie the Pooh quote with the hundred and one days because living without someone is the worst torture Bucky could ever think above HYDRA.
He's lost so much. He doesn't want to lose more.
Grief runs down like a river for him. Bucky doesn’t want Sam drowning in that path.
“What are we then?” Sam asked as Bucky held his hand, a smile so cute and warm it’s like baby sunflowers on a sunny day.
Bucky smiled, shrugging. “I’d like to be with you forever if you’d like that you.”
Sam does, the man says. And Bucky believed that this is heaven on earth.
Yes, Bucky wants Sam to outlive him. To fuck death into the unliving, to rule the underworld and free every single soul, to love the man until the moment between daybreak and nightfall. In moments unheard, Bucky wants Sam to outlive life itself, the universe itself, atoms itself. Maybe that’s why it hurts so much, to hear a mission gone wrong, to not be there to have his back covered.
Bucky’s one hour away and he just heard that Sam went on a mission in the Bronx without back-up, some spiderman shit, he doesn’t care. He steals the nearest motorbike and almost bullets through traffic and the roads just to reach the man in time before anything bad might happen.
He feels his chest tighten as he sped through three red lights. There’s something in him that can’t help but not trust Sam’s idiotic ass, and why wouldn’t anyone? The man would rush into hell like Orpheus if it means Euridyce can live. He’s sacrificial like that, forgets his fear of death and guilt of hundreds if it could save one more. And Bucky smiles as he sees the debris in front of him. I love him despite all that, he thinks. He wants to kiss Sam silly now.
He throws the bike and rolls off and into the road like a madman. He’s running through the debris and collapsed buildings to find Sam. He ignores the calls, Sergeant Barnes! Barnes! No, at this moment, he’s not Bucky Barnes. At this moment, he is called by Sam Wilson’s name. His name is a man who he loves.
He geos under a leaking pipe, then over a boulder of brick, then through a puddle of what seems to be gasoline. Then he hears the faint vibrations of the shield. He runs carefully now, yelling, Wilson! Wilson, Wilson… It echoes through the chamber. The road slopes downward, and he slips, slides downward with elegance and precision. He lands on both his feet, then starts running.
Some madman villain is responsible for this mess, and Bucky wouldn’t let it worsen.
He reaches Sam who seems to be tired from battling with the madman. He swings one last time and hits the man directly at the head, successfully knocking the man unconscious.
Bucky runs one last time, into Sam’s arms, and they topple down to the floor and rubble. I miss you, I miss you, I miss you, he whispers into Sam’s neck. Their legs tangle into each other and they’re buried into each other’s necks. Bucky trailer kisses down Sam’s cheek and neck, tears almost forming in his eyes.
He feels something warm on Sam’s stomach.
Buckyslowly and carefully leans away from Sam, hovering over the man. Sam says, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. On his stomach is a gaping hole, deep and oozing of blood into his white uniform. Sam is crying, his chest heavy with the burden of the world and his breathing is shallow. I’m sorry. I’m sorry.
Bucky became tight-lipped, then smiled. “You’re here. It’s okay.” he whispered. He activates Sam’s homing signal on his utility belt in a hurry. “You really do bury me, don’t you Barnes?”
“Yes, Wilson,” Sam laughs weakly.
Bucky wishes Sam to outlive him, for reasons like this.

71+ Unforgettably Priceless Friendship Quotes, Proverbs, and Messages in Different Languages
Bismillaahir-Rahmaanir-Raheem بسم الله الرّحمن الرّحيم… In the name of Allah (God), the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Assalaamu 'alaikum السّلام عليكم… Peace be with you
Hi, Readers :). When you think about the word "friend", what comes to mind? I bet you think of someone who is near to your heart. But how does someone achieve that status of being dear to you? This is usually accomplished with an acquaintance who remains unswervingly* devoted, sincere, loyal, and trustworthy with you over a period of time. The kind of person I'm referring to is an individual who is there for you under all circumstances, no matter how difficult. A gem like that is rare nowadays, so be grateful if you've found someone who TRULY knows what it means to be a friend! Having given my definition of "friend", I'll give you some dictionary definitions of this word in the next paragraph, InshaaAllah إن شاء الله (God willing).
*unswervingly adverb = in a constant and steadfast manner; "an unswervingly loyal man" (The Free Dictionary)
The following are some of the meanings of the noun "friend" from four online dictionaries:
"A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts." (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language)

"One attached to another by affection or esteem." (Merriam-Webster)
"A person you know well and regard with affection and trust." (RhymeZone)

Tumblr media
Here are some synonyms of the noun, "friend": "alter ego", "amigo", "buddy", "chum", "crony", "familiar", "intimate", "pal", "sidekick", etc. Two of its antonyms are "enemy", and "foe". (Wordsmyth)
Seeing that we've established the meaning of "friend", let's examine some meanings of its derivative "friendship":
"A friendship is a relationship between two or more friends." (Collins COBUILD Dictionary)
"You use friendship to refer in a general way to the state of being friends, or the feelings that friends have for each other." (Collins COBUILD Dictionary)
"If you have someone's friendship, they are your friend." (Collins COBUILD Dictionary)
"The emotions or conduct of friends; the state of being friends." (Oxford Dictionaries)
Etymology:
friendship (n.)
Old English freondscipe "friendship, mutual liking and regard," also "conjugal love;" see friend (n.) + -ship. Similar formation in Dutch vriendschap, German Freundschaft, Swedish frändskap. (Etymonline)
Okey doke. Let's dive into some memorably precious friendship quotes, proverbs and messages in different languages, InshaaAllah إن شاء الله. Happy reading! :) ;)
Side note:
Please feel free to share, and reblog this post if you appreciate it, InshaaAllah إن شاء الله. Thanks heaps (a lot)! :)

7 Ways to Be a Genuine Friend
"You have to be a friend to have them."
― J.M. Richards
"The only way to have a friend is to be one."
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Let's get the facts straight, in order to be someone's friend you need to know how to be a true amigo/a. Here are seven ways to be a genuine* friend, InshaaAllah إن شاء الله:
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."
― Oscar Wilde
1. Always try to be yourself. Let your friends see you for who you really are. Don't be a phony (fake). Show them your true personality. Don't act one way in front of them, and another way behind their backs. If they can accept the real you, then you'll be able to have more meaningful and lasting friendships.
"One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say."
― Bryant H. McGill
"There is as much wisdom in listening as there is in speaking--and that goes for all relationships, not just romantic ones."
― Daniel Dae Kim
2. Be an active, caring and responsive listener. Try to listen to your friends carefully, interestedly and understandingly. And, always make an effort to give them constructive feedback and sound advice.
"Perfection is a goal that will forever remain impossible for any human being to achieve. Therefore, the only achievable goal is to only strive to become the best that you can possibly be."
― Edmond Mbiaka
"I think people who have faults are a lot more interesting than people who are perfect."
― Spike Lee
3. No one is perfect. This is earth! We all have faults. Know that you have faults, and that your friends have faults too. And, learn to live with them. Some of them can be fixed and some of them can't be fixed. C'est la vie! ('That's life'; 'Such is life' in French) If you do something wrong, take the blame. Say your sorries, and try your best to learn from your mistakes.
"Appreciation can make a day, even change a life. Your willingness to put it all into words is all that is necessary."
― Margaret Cousins
"Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."
― Marcel Proust
4. Appreciate your friends. Show them your appreciation. Let them know that you value them. Here are some simple ways of doing this:
Write them a kind note, letter, or email.
Give them a surprise call to let them know you haven't forgotten them.
Make something special for them.
Compliment them about their successes. But please don't flatter them, as flattery is insincere.
Show them signs of care and affection.
Do something sweet and thoughtful for them.
Give them a small gift to let them know that they mean something to you. You can be creative in this area, as it's the thought that counts most!
Verbalize it! Let your friends know how grateful you are for them. Tell them how much you prize (appreciate) their friendship.
"Tell people how it is, be real and be honest. If you see something wrong make sure you speak up. Being this way will naturally eliminate the snakes and fakes."
― John Maiorana
"Honesty is the best policy."
― Benjamin Franklin
5. Be honest and frank (direct) with your friends, but please remember to be polite too. If your friends ask for your opinion on a matter, give them a sincere one. Don't lie to them. Tell them the truth that they need to hear, but say it tactfully (politely).
"The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well."
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
"There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up."
― John Holmes
6. Be caring and helpful to others. Use your God-given abilities to do something good for your friends. Be genuinely thoughtful towards them, and look for ways that you can help them. When you help others it makes you healthier and happier.
"To keep the Golden Rule we must put ourselves in other people's places, but to do that consists in and depends upon picturing ourselves in their places."
― Harry Emerson Fosdick
"Treat others how you want to be treated."
7. Treat your friends as you'd like to be treated. That's the Golden Rule! If you follow this principle religiously (regularly, constantly), you're bound to have successful long-term friendships.
*genuine adjective = (of a person, emotion, or action) sincere.
Synonyms: "sincere", "honest", "truthful", "unhypocritical", "meaning what one says", "straightforward", "direct", "frank", "candid", "open"; "artless", "natural", "unaffected", "guileless", "ingenuous"; informal "straight", "upfront", "on the level"; informal "on the up and up"; informal "dinkum"

Onion Articles That I Would Write
Mad With Power, the Snyder Cut Crowd Demand Sovereignty for Hong Kong, Taiwan and Tibbet from China: The story goes on to explain that after the Release the Snyder Cut campaign’s success, the fandom winds up on a power trip and start shaking down the Chinese government to get them to grant Tibbet, Taiwan and Hong Kong political autonomy. With fake quotes from President Xi reminiscent of Winnie ther Pooh “oh bother”.
Donald Trump Heroically Fights Urge to Say the N-word: Basically just commentary on how the “scandal” of “Obamagate” was that “a n*gger was elected president”.
What’s the Point You’re not Actually Going to Read the Article Anyway: The journalist complains about how nobody actually reads past the headline then goes on a tangent about how she’s cheating on her husband with her boss, her husband is cheating on her with her boss’ wife, she’s cheating on her husband and boss with her boss’ wife and her husband is cheating on her and her boss’ wife with her boss.
Just When You Thought 2020 Couldn’t Get Worse, A Giant Big Ass Chameleon Levels Singapore: Self explanatory.

Ks has always stated that he prefers life without complications. So your relationship with Ji is not complicated for him? Since they have to "hide", deny each other's existence, always be blocked by other members, fake dating.
Life of every elites and most of artist are full of complication all of time anon XD
Even winnie the pooh writer and his son whom the character christopher robin was based.... Their life complicated than we think it should be until they died... Even the pooh is only a fiction for children.... Especially marilyn monroe who always had smile on her face and love to make ppl happy but her real life....
We don’t know full of their behind the scenes that what come and out 24 hrs..... They have hidden agenda rule to keep at the start.... Even we don’t see nothing in their life but it not mean everything too clam like the red carpet way.....
Even ordinary ppl life.... some ppl always struck in too savage mode and full of complication all of time...
But because of they are unknown.... So no one mercy them.....
And edited for more passionate words....
Thanks you @julycolibri​ for more passionate of quote words
Tumblr media
"Kaisoo has chosen to "complicate life a little", but at the end of the day they know how much they are worth to someone and how much they should love that special person. Sometimes "getting complicated" is worth all The sorrow of the world."

Have you ever read the Hunger Games series? Yep and watched all the movies. I was really into it at the time. When was the last time you ran into something? Hmm. I don’t recall. Do you enjoy dressing up? Nah. Do you live in the city or a rural area? I live in the city. Would you say you have a sense of style? My sense of style consists of mostly graphic tees and leggings, but also some Adidas clothes. And shoes. 
What’s your biggest fear? This question comes up all the damn time. Have you ever been bitten by a wild animal? Nooo. Are you close to any of your cousins? Aww, I used to be close to a few of my cousins. Not anymore, though. :( That’s all my fault. I became really distant and withdrawn from friends and even family outside of my immediate family.  Have you ever been lost in the woods? No, thankfully. Where did you last travel? Disneyland back in February. Do you enjoy driving? I don’t drive.  What song did you last listen to? I mentioned this in a previous survey already, but I’ve had Savage by Megan the Stallion stuck in my head because of TikTok. If you have a job, how often do you work? I don’t have a job. What time do you normally go to sleep at night? For the past month I’ve been going to bed after 6AM. :X Do you watch a lot of movies? Hmm. Not a lot, no. I watch more TV shows. Do you like Tom Petty? ”Now I’m freeeeeee Free fallin’.” Would you rather have snow or rain? I love rainy days. It doesn’t snow here, but I wish it did. Do you own a lot of sweaters? I own a lot of sweatshirts. Have you ever tried rock-climbing? Well, no. For obvious reasons. Ever ridden in a police car? Nope. Favorite decade of music? That’s tough cause I like music that spans across decades, but I think the 90s and early 2000′s will hold a special spot. Have any of your best friends been your best friend longer than a year? My longest was my best friend of 15 years.  Ever witnessed a murder? Noooo.  Does your room have a ceiling fan? Yep. Have you ever tried blogging? Before Tumblr I had Xanga for a long time.  Favorite television channel? E!, MTV, The Hallmark Channel, TeenNick, TVLand, and the ID Channel. Have you ever lied under oath? I’ve never had to be under oath. What are your religious views? I’m a Christian. When did you last change your bed sheets? A week ago. Would you consider yourself a flirt? No. At what age do you plan to be married? I don’t plan on getting married. Do you eat a lot of junk food? Honestly, all I eat is sandwiches, ramen, eggs, and Wingstop. Sometimes pizza and pasta. When did you last go on vacation? I’ve answered this 3 times now tonight, but I went to Disneyland back in February. Are you resilient? I was when I was younger. Definitely not anymore. Have you ever failed a subject before? I failed one math course in community college and had to retake it again. I ended up doing a lot better the 2nd time. I honestly believe it’s because I had a better teacher. If so, what was the class? ^^^ Do you wear more bright or dull colors? Dull. Majority of my clothes are black. Do you know anyone who has attempted suicide? Yes. What’s your favorite quote? Blah. How many clocks are in your house? Like 20 including all the electronics.  Do you play any sports? Nope. What is your biggest life regret? I have a lot of those. Have you ever been injured in a car accident? No, thankfully. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you be? Well obviously right now I only want to be at home, but I look forward to the day I can go to the beach. Have you ever had highlights in your hair? Yeah, I had them for years. Favorite fast food restaurant? I’m not into fast food anymore like I used to be. I was a fast food junkie before. The only takeout I’m into is Wingstop. And pizza from a local place, but I haven’t had that in awhile. In what country were you born? US of A. Are your eyes more than one color? Nope, just brown. Have you ever caught something on fire? Something in the microwave once, something in the oven once, the tips of my hair.... What would you consider your biggest flaw? Oh boy where to start. What do you think your best quality is? I don’t know. Do you enjoy listening to others’ problems? I used to be the person people came to if they needed advice or just someone to talk to and I was good at it. I liked being there and helping any way I could. People told me they felt comfortable talking to me and I was easy to talk to. It could also be overwhelming and draining at times. Especially leading up to when I fell into a really low, dark place a few years ago. I couldn’t be that person anymore. I wasn’t in a good headspace. I pushed everyone away and became very distant and withdrawn. That was 4 years ago and I’m still out of that place. :/

My family and I share some musical interests. What are you most looking forward to?

Love, Fate, Destiny
Part 12a - Kismet
Tumblr media
Riley Brooks is a waitress in a ‘Dive bar” in New York. One Saturday night, her past comes back to haunt her as some unfamiliar punters enter her bar on a bachelor party- one of them being someone who she was once close to.
*CHARACTERS BELONG TO PIXELBERRY*
Tags- @annekebbphotography @burnsoslow @drakesensworld @ladyangel70 @kingliam2019 @bbrandy2002 @butindeed @bascmve01 @drakewalker04 @pedudley @captain-kingliamsqueen @duchessemersynwalker @insideamirage @of-course-i-went-to-hartfeld @kozabaji @texaskitten30 @ibldw-main @kimmiedoo5 @nikkis1983 @dangerouseggseagleartisan @gnatbrain @walker7519 @lodberg @cmestrella @hopefulmoonobject @addictedtodrakefanfic @angi15h @liamxs-world @rafasgirl23415 @notoriouscs @yukinagato2012
There’s two parts... at the bottom of the page click continue reading as Tumblr said it was too long - so had to split it 😫
*****
Liam and the others arrived back at the hotel. Bastien decided to go to his room, he was feeling guilty enough so didn’t want to face Drake and Riley together.
“Drake? Where’s Riley?” Liam asked shocked. He had assumed that they would still be together making up for lost time.
“She... she saw the ring!”
“You fucking moron! We weren’t dragging you round NYC to try and get you to pull.”
“Fuck off Olivia! Maybe if none of you forced me to move on I wouldn’t have to wear a fake wedding ring to stop women trying to hit on me!”
“Did you show her the tattoo? Explain about the ring?” Liam asked, they had just found Riley again and lost her again. Regretting not getting her new number off of her, he didn’t know how they were going to find her again.
“She didn’t give me chance to.” Drake said in a pitiful tone of voice.
I’ve lost her again.
*******
Drake was frustrated with everyone forcing him out all the time -attempting to get him to move on from Riley. Stupidly he had agreed to go out with all the men later that night for a night away in Greece. Previous nights out, he had women drool over him- but he wasn’t interested. One woman said to him “there’s no ring on your finger, so I assume you’re single. Come back to my place.”
Driving into the capitol, he found a jewellery store. Choosing the cheapest ring he could find, he would wear it. If another woman attempted to convince him that he was single he would just rise his left hand up.
Later that day he met the men, and they travelled to Greece. In the first club, Liam tried to push him towards some attractive women- but they weren’t Riley. No one would compare to her. As the women came over, one touched Drake’s arm- he brushed her away and showed her the ring. Liam pulled him to the side.
“Since when did you get married Sir Walker?”
“Does it matter? I’m not moving on Liam! I could have been married to Riley by now. Had children. But no, I got that torn away from me. I don’t want to move on- so please don’t try and make me!”
The night went on, Drake became more and more intoxicated every second that went by. He was even dancing with Maxwell- something that wasn’t his forte.
“Drake... buddy.... why don’t we go for a tattoo.... have matching ones....” Maxwell slurred, not understanding what exactly he had suggested.
“Yes man! Let’s.... go....” Drake suggested as he tried to stable his balance. The two snuck out of the club laughing like naughty school boys.
Entering the tattoo shop, Maxwell flipped through the folders finding a few tattoos they could have. Drake frowned at the options; a flower, a cat with pussay patrol written under it, Winnie the Pooh, Duracell bunny. There was also one for couples, where one person would have ‘Dis’ tattooed on their knee and the other would have ‘ney’ on their - Disney.
“Or you could get a hippo tattoo like me.....we’d be twinnies.”
“Fuck no! I know what... I’m getting.”
The tattoo artist started working on Drake’s tattoo. Once done- he returned to Maxwell.
“That was quick.... did you chicken out bud?” Maxwell impersonated a chicken, making a fool out of himself.
“No! Look...”
“RB? As in Riley Brooks? On your wedding finger?”
“Yep!” The first genuine smile he had on his face for months- he kept picturing her face. Hoping that fate one day would bring them back together.
“Ah Drake... I hope you don’t regret that in the morning. I’m going for the ‘pussay patrol’ tattoo.”
Drake was drunk- knowing that this was a bad idea, he held his laughter in. He couldn’t wait to see Max’s reaction tomorrow- Maxwell may regret his choice of tattoo but Drake certainly wouldn’t.
*******
Riley was an emotional wreck, heading straight to Beth’s apartment she broke down in tears. After explaining what had happened- Beth was shellshocked.
“Tonight! We are going out.. you need it! I’ll pay.”
“Thanks Beth. I need a rebound quick.”
As Riley was getting ready, she had a new friend request - Maxwell. Not wanting to be rude, she decided to accept his message, and had a short conversation with him- keep it simple she thought.
Tumblr media
“You ready to go?” Beth asked whilst topping up her lipstick- pouting in the mirror.
“I so am. Drake Walker who?” Riley smirked, whilst putting her heels on.
“That’s the spirit chick! Let’s go!” The two women necked their pre drinks down quickly, before shooting out of the door.
******
Maxwell arranged to meet everyone in the hotel bar. After stalking Riley’s Instagram he had figured out where she was going that night- he knew she was annoyed with Drake and that they were both as stubborn as each other, but he needed to get them back together.
“So glad you could meet me guys. Liam I hope you’ve delayed our flight back. Where’s her majesty?”
“Why? We need to get back to Cordonia as soon as possible! I need to have stern words with certain people. She refused to come- she said and I quote ‘I am not stepping foot in another shithole bar.’ So she’s staying here.”
“Her loss. Guess who’s friends with Riley on Instagram? Oh yes that would be me!”
“And your point is?” Liam questioned, not understanding why this was relevant.
“I know what she’s doing tonight. I spoke to her in a chat- then stalked all her pictures. She’s a professional model now... she’s fucking hot as fuck.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Drake scowled at him, he felt jealousy burn through him. He knew Maxwell would never make a move on her- he wasn’t like Liam. But it still hurt that he would call his ‘girlfriend’ hot as fuck.
“Wow! She is hot!” Hana’s eyes widened.
“Is she turning you Hana?” Maxwell winked at her and nudged her. Seeing Drake becoming wound up- maybe this might encourage him to win her back.
“Quite possibly she could do haha.”
“Look Liam, Drake, Bastien....”
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Bastien gulped, he knew that she was a model- he had stalked her Instagram page ever since finding it. At times he had to knock off the page- as he gained a slight erection. On one occasion he masturbated over one of her pictures- it was a heat of the moment thing. He would never be able to tell Drake the truth about this.
“Yes, she is gorgeous.” He muttered.
“I think she’s out of everyone’s league.” Liam responded after witnessing Drake scowling at everyone’s reactions.
Drake snatched the phone, scrolling through the pictures- he agreed with everyone; she was hot, she was gorgeous and she most certainly was out of his league. Ordering another whiskey, he knew he needed some dutch courage to explain what Riley misinterpreted if they saw her.
*****
“Hey babe, are you still at Kismet?”
Riley’s eyes widened, her heart sank. Regretting tagging herself in things on social media- she now had Maxwell stalking her. Quickly looking around to see if they were there- she couldn’t see any of them.
“Hey Max. No we are in bed, all worn out. Sorry.” Phew- hopefully they won’t come.
Strolling up to the bar, she kept looking over her shoulders. Hoping that they wouldn’t turn up. She had lost Drake due to her poor decision making- it was time to move on and she couldn’t if the bunch of misfits from fucked up Cordonia turned up. Waiting at the bar for Beth to return from the bathroom, she was contemplating what to order.
“Mark. Jesus. You scared the life out of me.”
“Looking good Ri. You’re photos don’t do it any justice.”
Riley noticed Beth on the dance floor- wishing that Beth would stop kissing her boyfriend and head over to rescue her from her ex.
“Erm. Thanks.” Fucking creep. Leave me alone.
“What are you having to drink?” Rolling her eyes, she believed if she accepted a drink he would leave her be and go and pester some other poor person.
“Surprise me.” Mark smirked as he ordered her a drink. When she wasn’t looking he poured an extra ingredient into the cocktail.
“Thanks.”
“You’re welcome. I’ve missed you you know.”
“Oh well the feeling isn’t mutual.”
“Come on Ri, we had a good thing going on.”
“It was in college. And you was a rebound. You know that!”
Riley felt uncomfortable in his presence, his hand tightening around her waist- she couldn’t remove it. He began to kiss her neck making her feel physically sick. Pushing him away she wanted to wipe that smirk off his face. Turning around to make her escape she bumped into someone familiar.
“Hey blossom!”
Shit
“Hey, Max. I’m so glad to see you.” Smiling at Max - he was her saviour, her new best friend.
“Who’s this douche?” Mark raised his eyebrows at the stranger.
“This Mark.... Is my boyfriend Maxwell.”
Riley pulled Maxwell closer to her, just please pretend for fuck sake- he’s a creep, follow my lead. Kissing Max on the lips- he was frozen at first, but eventually melted into it. Once they parted Maxwell slapped Riley on her arse, lowering her mouth to his ear, too far Beaumont but I’ll use it.
“Oh he does love spanking me. He’s so cute isn’t he Mark?” Riley said as she caressed Maxwell’s cheeks.
“Er yeah. See ya around Riley. Hopefully sooner rather than later.”
Watching Mark leave the area, she turned to her friend, hoping he wouldn’t berate her on her lie she previously told him.
“Thanks.”
“So you’re in bed are ya?” Folding his arms and raising his eyebrows- Riley knew he was angry. Maxwell was never angry, he was always so cheery and full of life.
“I was hoping you wouldn’t come. So I lied. I’m sorry. But honestly thank you for helping me.”
“Who is he?”
“My college boyfriend. My rebound for Drake.”
“Ohhh talking about Drake...”
“He’s here isn’t he?” Riley looked towards the floor, that was surrounded by the sticky residue of spilts drinks.
“Yeah, come and see him. He’s devastated.”
“Let me finish this drink. I need to use the bathroom too... I’ll be right back. I’ll find you all.”

My mom is complaining about people on facebook making up fake quotes and putting them on pictures of winnie the pooh characters. She was getting really heated about it and very aggressively stated “I KNOW Winnie the Pooh and Piglet and they WOULD NOT say THAT”.

Chapter four: A nice encounter
Chapter 1 / Chapter 2 / Chapter 3
~~~
Scrape.
Roman was cleaning the area of the cafe after the library had closed. Humming one of his favourite songs when he’s working in the cafe, Gaston, he dusted and broomed after pushing the tables and chairs to the side. He insisted that he would pack up after Logan’s emotional afternoon, not letting him know of his own. Lights flickering off to hide the cakes and lettering of his little part to the library, the rest of it was soon turned off as he walked out. Gloves on to keep his fingers from freezing, he made his way down the road. Like Logan, he was lucky to be able to be walking distance from the library. Starting to break into a light jog (which was awkward considering his prince outfit wasn’t fit for running), his boots trotted heavily along the apartment before turning into the cul-de-sac. Nose starting to go pink from the cold, he made quick work of the keys and rushing inside. Taking a sigh. He turned the lights on and the heater to full blast. As much as he loved to play the prince persona as if he was actually one, he went straight to his room to take off the boots, suit and makeup that started to weigh him down. Getting changed into his Disney pyjamas, he played some soft rhythms through his phone to calm his already exhausted brain from over working anymore. Only having left overs to eat, the aroma of pasta goodness filled the house as he waited for the microwave to stop. He could finally let his expression be true to itself in the safety of his own home. He didn’t smile, or look that joyful at all. Bags under his eyes and poorly taken care of skin that the makeup his so well, his posture slumped more than his usual ‘royalty’ pose.
Beep beep beep.
Pulling the container from the microwave and sitting in the corner of the couch, he started to eat in a silence as he tried to pick a movie from his completely adult section of movies….a variation of Disney, Dreamworks and other cartoon movies.. His expression almost seeming emotionless as he finally settled on Winnie The Pooh. Finally a gentle small smile was on his face as he hummed the tune. When he saw Tigger on the screen his smile grew as it reminded him of Virgil and the kids. The story telling and sketching Virgil did for them. He cringed a little as he remembered how emotional he got and his cheeks heated up from the memory of the hug. He honestly didn’t expect it from Virgil. Someone who seemed to hate him initiated the hug and stayed with him until Roman basically demanded for him to leave so he could go home. Even then Virgil seemed hesitant but left the library with a Patton happily skipping behind. A soft smile was on his face as he relished the feeling before Roman suddenly snorted. Choking on his pasta, he was in a laughing fit. Gasping for air as he couldn’t get a breath between his laughter, he remembered that he slipped a note into Virgil’s pocket during their hug. Don’t be mistaken, he didn’t fake it. They were very much true tears, but Roman was just always prepared to leave a little something for a cute guy.
Virgil had immediately went to his room, grunting to let Patton know who went to start dinner. He sat at his desk and pulled out his sketchbook. Falling on to an open page, he stared….and that’s what he did for 45 minutes until Patton called him downstairs. Groaning in annoyance, he basically stomped down the stairs to the table. Patton had a small concerned smile on his face that calmed him down almost instantly. He sat down on the table and started eating his chicken. He never really said it, but he was grateful that Patton took the time to learn how to cook proper food for them after….
“So I saw you were helping Roman today.” Patton said, looking down at his food but Virgil could hear the smile on his face. Of course he would point it out.
“One of the kids wanted me to come over and play with them.”
“Awww that’s so just the sweetest gosh-darn thing! I overheard you guys making some wild stories, was it fun?”
Surprisingly a lot. “I guess.”
“You have to give me more than that kiddo! How was it like hanging out with Ro?”
Amazing. “It was alright.”
“Juuuuussssttt alright?”
Virgil looked up to see Patton looking at him, shimmering his shoulders and wiggling his eyebrows in a way that couldn’t stop him from laughing. “Shut up.”
“Watch your language kiddo.”
;“Yea yea. Thanks for dinner Pat, I’ve got work to...do…” Virgil was reaching into his pocket to put his headphones back in when he felt a foreign piece of paper in his pocket. He pulled it out to reveal a phone number. Who’s it was was evident by the small crowns places on the top of every 0, making the hooded boy blush. Patton raising a curious eyebrow jumped on the table to look at the paper from above. He gasped excitedly when he recognised the design. “AWWWW THIS IS SO ADORABLE!!”
Virgil trying to make an annoyed face at his brother just sulked away, message he wanted not really effective by the blush on his face. “It is not!”
“IS TOO YOU BIG SOFTY!!”
“LA LA LA I AM NOT LISTENING.” Virgil called back, blocking his ears until he made it back to his own bedroom. Sighing, he laid down on his bed, school work to be forgotten about as he stared at the number. It was calling out to him to just do it but the growing anxiousness was trying to hold him back.
“What if he didn’t think anything of that hug?”
“What if he just sees you as a loser?”
“Emo?”
“Failing student?”
“He graduated last year and he already owns a cafe. What are you going to do?”
“Nothing.”
“You’re an angsty teen who is just good for no-”
“He really likes you kiddo.”
Virgil’s attention snapped up to Patton who was in his doorway. “Don’t you remember the rules about privacy Pat?”
“I do, but your door was cracked open and I heard your breaths being really heavy as I walked past. I didn’t mean to intrude, I was just worried.” Patton’s face told it. His smile was full of concern as his eyes tried to tell Virgil a million different heart warming things.
“It’s alright, I’m just….what if he doesn’t like me in anyway? What if he sees us as a tutor-student relationship? He is just so much better than me and I’m scared that he’ll think of me as nothing and-”
“Virgil, calm down.” Patton had swiftly sat next to the laying down Virgil, taking a hand between his own. “I see the way he looks at you when you’re not looking. Believe me, he doesn’t see you as just a student. Besides, he only graduated last year himself, right?”
Virgil was afraid of his voice cracking, so he just nodded slowly.
“Exactly. He won’t see you like that, you just need to believe it.”
With the calming traces of Patton’s fingers across his knuckles, Virgil’s breaths started to even out again. His mind had slowed down and wasn’t screaming at him about everything bad that could happen. Almost like routine, once Virgil clung on to Patton’s hand a bit tighter to ask him not to leave Patton shuffled on to the bed more, lifting his younger brothers head into his lap. Sighing contently as his hair was being played with, his eyes looked up to the blue shining orbs of his brothers. His protector. “I’ll stay here with you, but I’ll promise not to look unless you show me.”
Smiling gratefully up at Patton, he grabbed his phone from his patched hoodie and opened up contacts to add the new number in. After a few shaky breaths he got the courage to open messages and send a text that took him 10 minutes of rewriting and convincing from Patton that it was fine.
anxiousemo: hey disney nerd
Virgil stared at his phone for 5 minutes. Panic was starting to set in again as the seconds tick by. Patton continued to play with his hair lightly, reassuring him that he was just busy. Virgil’s thoughts were getting loud again, betraying himself and taking his breath away. He wasn’t going to be able to stay rooted for very long. He was just pathetic and-
Ding.
They both froze as they looked at the screen
👑RoRo👑: hello dark and stormy night
Patton shrieked in joy, making Virgil jump and laugh with a smile. “Calm down calm down, he….I’ve got this.”
Patton nodded but was still jumping up and down in excitement. “I’m just so happy for my little brother.”
“Alright, thanks Pat. Now stop jumping otherwise you’re going to make the bed hit the….wall.”
Scrape.
