FTF: Cosmological Rabbit Hole

The side show where we look at a franchise to determine how big it's cosmology is and determine how powerful all of it's characters are. We'll determine who scales to what and demonstrate all the powers and abilities the characters of this verse have to offer.

This Week's Verse....

Pressure!

The story of Pressure centers around the mysterious corporation UrbanShade, a megacorp that centers around exploiting the supernatural for massive profits. While they do protect humanity from broadly world threatening supernatural forces, their primary concern is their bottom line, with any supernatural entities that they can't exploit for profit either sold or destroyed under their watch. To this end, they built a blacksite at the bottom of the ocean in the Let-Vand Zone, where the ocean pressure is inexplicably much lighter than it should be. It's a perfect place for containing supernatural entities, as any escapees would be immediately crushed to death by ocean pressure upon exiting the Let-Vand Zone.

Like their Wikidot inspiration, the UrbanShade Corporation believes in using death row inmates as free labor, tasking them with building the blacksite. Enter Sebastian Solace, an inmate convicted for nine murders whom the UrbanShade Corporation got their hands on. The subjected him to human experimention, injecting him full of DNA from various sea life both natural and abnormal in an attempt to get humans to breath underwater. The attempt was successful at the cost of turning him into a sea hybrid abomination with three eyes, three arms, a shark tail for a bottom half, and the lure of an anglerfish.

When Sebastian discovered that UrbanShade was both aware that he'd been framed for his crimes and had the opportunity to reverse his new condition but choose not to out of convenience, he elected for some nice cold revenge. Sebastian faked being effected by sleeping darts and broke out during transport, murdering a guardsman before making to unleash every monster the Blacksite has in containment.

You, dear Player, are the latest convict that UrbanShade has grabbed to clean up their mess. Go down to the Blacksite, recover all the data you can, steal the energy crystal supplying power to the building, and get out for a free "get out of jail" card. And if any of the monsters try to stop you, just remember: you can be replaced.

The Convict

The Convict is the low end baseline for every other monster in the game, as every threat can at least hurt them, if not one shot them outright. So, I'll use them as a starting benchmark.

The Convict's scuba gear is custom built to withstand the depths of the ocean as deep as 1200000 studs below the depths of the ocean:

For those that don't speak Roblox, 1 stud is 28 cm. So that depth is 336000 meters below the surface, with 476493.09 psi. 93029455 Joules given the surface area of a human or 93030 kilojoules (Small Building Level)

Do note the draw back of "built in with a collar that shoots a bullet into you if you try to escape" however.

There's some consistency to this scaling, as the Convict can take hits from Good People, an assimilating monster that had up to that point absorbed 108 people.

The average human contains about 125,822 calories. Multiply by 108 then convert to joules to get 56855438784 joules or 13 Tons of TNT (City Block Level). That's how much energy Good People was absorbing by digesting that many people in rapid succession. That many calories being forced into your system would likely make your heart explode.

Yes, I did just power scale Roblox by calculating vore. You're welcome.

Keep in mind, Good People is one of the weaker monsters in the facility, with it being sent back to lick its wounds by UrbanShade security and doing relatively little damage to the Convict.

Speed wise, the Convict doesn't really have anything going for them beyond aim dodging bullets from the Blacksite's turrets, which have been helpfully taken over by P.AI.nter the rogue AI.

In terms of equipment, the Convict can carry various flashlights, key cards, and medkits that do as advertised, along with a few more useful tools. The code scrambler hacks into security panels the Convict isn't authorized for, the Flash Beacon blinds pursuing monsters, the Party Special and Dweller Chunks slowly regenerate health when consumed, the Notebook which grants a random item, and the Monster Tracker that tracks nearby hostiles. Also the Diving Gear does its job letting the Player breath underwater seemingly indefinitely.

Most impressive however, are the revival tokens, disposable items that bring the Convict back to life once each on the spot.

Sebastian Solace

Sebastian himself acts as your begruding shopkeeper, trading the Convict the tools above in exchange for the data they're collecting, which he plans to sell to third parties in exchange for escaping the doomed blacksite.

Sebastian is treated as one of the most dangerous monsters in the facility, as Mr. Shade, CEO of UrbanShade himself instructs his men to "shred your mags until your trigger fingers bleed" when confronting him. When he isn't scrounging for gear to pawn off on Convicts, he's hunting down UrbanShade security personel with relish, taunting them over the speakers all the while. He's stolen a SCRAMBLER device that disrupts communication devices and monster trackers in his presence, allowing him to get the drop on guards unnoticed, while his file describes him as outmaneuvering and speed blitzing guards. Despite his massive size, Sebastian is conspicuously fast, outright speed blitzing the Convict whenever they find a file to steal it for himself.

Sebastian has even been implied to be able to warp and bash down steel doors with his blows, if what we see of the aftermath of his escape is any indication.

Sebastian is so strong that even just throwing the Player around when annoyed with them takes off half their health and if they make the mistake of flashing him twice with the Flash Beacon, he's liable to shoot them dead.

Other Monsters

Most other monsters don't have much going on scaling wise beyond "being able to hurt/kill/blitz the Convict" so I won't waste too much time here.

P.AI.nter:

Initially just an AI made to make auto-generated art and NFTs, P.AI.nter's creator turned out to be too competent a coder for his own good when his bot turned out to be sentient and self aware. Murdering his creator in front of him, UrbanShade employees stole P.AI.nter and set him to work farming crypto currency to maximize profits. P.AI.nter is so miserable in this state he actively overheats his own processors in a slow attempted suicide. UrbanShade is aware of this, but doesn't care, because he can still mine NFTs even in brain death.

When Sebastian set everyone free, P.AI.nter was eternally greatful, as returns the favor by stalling the Player at every turn. Be that shooting them with the Blacksite's turrets, locking them in rooms with monsters, luring them into encountering Good People, or using music to activate the kill switch in their diving gear.

Sadly, his half melted circuits leave him a mood flipping mess. He goes from apologizing to the Convict to bloodthirsty taunting in an instant, leaving him a bit emotionally unstable. Poor guy.

Eyefestation

Sebastian wasn't the only time UrbanShade tried experimenting on "disposable" subjects. UrbanShade wanted to create a way for its agents to kill people with a glance, coming up with a very painful surgery that would allow subjects to shoot radiation from their eyes and melt a subject's brain on eye contact. To this end, they tested the process on local sharks in the area, turning a bull shark into a multi eyed monstrosity, with eyes even inside its own gullet. Naturally, the tortured beast set about killing any UrbanShade staff it could find when set free, telepathically forcing the victim to gaze into its eyes so their brain can melt. Trying to blind it only pisses it off. Keep your willpower about you, resist the pull, and look away. Eyefestation is just a regular shark otherwise.

The Angler (and variants)

The Angler and all of its variations are giant, indescribable monsters with the faces if angler fish who charge down the halls at blinding fast speeds. The signal of their charge is a cry and the flicker of lights above, caused by an EMP pulse they constantly emit.

They kill on contact via absorbing all the bio-electricity from your body and the strongest of them, Pandemonium (a seperate species that nonetheless behaves mostly identical), can bash down the facility's bullet proof doors, taking considerable effort from the Convict to hold back.

Squiddles

No relation to Homestuck. These shadows squid creatures are docile so long as you leave them in the dark and don't shine your light at them. They are among the weaker enemies, doing negligible damage.

Wall Dwellers

Humanoid creatures who, well, dwell in the walls. They use acic spewing holes on their back to burrow their back halves into walls, camouflaging their remain front to ambush prey. If killed by another monster such as an Angler, they're dropped meat grants temporary regenerative properties. They're deadly enough to rip your neck open before you can react and they hunt in groups. Keep an eye out.

Searchlights

Finally, some big game. These whale sized aquatic organisms are over 80 million year old super predators. With impenetrable armor on their tops, they hunt with the search lights beneath them, skewering whatever they see and dragging it up to swallow it whole, killing the Convict instantly if spotted.

Mask of Sadness

The Mask of Sadness is a theater mask that melts the warer into the blobby flesh monster known as Good People, causing it to go around animalistically assimilating people on contact.

I covered some of its scaling already, but there are some things to note still. In the incident in which it was captured, the blob absorbed 725 people in a packed theater, absorbing their souls, and growing so enormous that it accidentally knocked a street lamp down and burnt the building and itself to ashes.

Using the formula discussed earlier, that would be 91220950 calories or 381668455000 joules (91 Tons of TNT, City Block Level+)

Good People is highly flammable and once its body is melted to ash, it will have to start again with just one host. As such, the version the Convict scales to is much weaker than when it was first captured.

Valcula Void Mass

Inarguably the most powerful being in the facility, this extraterrestrial mass of sentient nothingness needs to be constantly evaporated to keep the Blacksite from "becoming nothing but a black smudge on the world maps".

Partially freed during Sebastian's break out, the Void Mass's spawn have spread all over the facility, instantly devouring any who would be foolish enough to enter its hiding place. If another player isn't there to rescue them, the Convict is effectively cooked. Naturally, UrbanShade uses small drops of this deadly, acid like substance as bullet tips to increase their guns killing power.

Given the meteor it arrived on has a radius of about 8.4 meters, it would weigh around 9,930,850 kgs. Moving at 75,000 m/s, it'd hit with an energy equivalent to 6.7 Megatons (City Level). The Void Mass at its smallest tanked that impact without a scratch. It it broke containment now, it could feasibly end the world.

UrbanShade

While Pressure itself is largely a fairly grounded horror game with fairly consistent Small Building to Wall Level scaling (and a City Block Level feat if you count... eating people as a feat.) the lore documents are where most of the verses best scaling comes from.

Just from the above, we've already established that UrbanShade security personel can shot acidic nothingness bullets, shoot radiation from their eyes, telepathically communicate, breathe underwater, and should upscale a disposable schmuck like the Convict in armory. That's plenty impressive enough. But, that's nothing on the tech UrbanShade has waiting in the wings.

There's just a lot about UrbanShade that we simply don't know. The lore makes it clear that we're only experiencing a small part of a much larger mythos, so there's a lot we just don't have the context for. We know UrbanShade has access to the corpse of Thor and has a weapon called the Heavenbreaker, but without context, we don't know how powerful these weapons are. But, even still, there's a lot we can intuit.

The Trenchbleeder's are several stories tall mechanical behemoths built to drain the Let-Vand Zone of all its natural resources for profit. Weighing 220,600 tons and being big enough to flatten a Searchlight with one foot.

At the end of the game, a Trenchbleeder deliberately steps on a Searchlight to save the Convict. Assuming that Searchlight's move comparable to real whales (13 m/s) and the Trenchbleeder would've generated energy equivalent to 4.3 Tons of TNT (Large Building Level+) effortlessly with that step. The Blacksite's external canons should upscale, as they're the things actually protecting the facility and the Trenchbleeders from attack.

More impressive than that, however, UrbanShade was able to contain the Analog Horror Christmas Tree, who killed Santa and replaces him with evil versions every year.

Given that UrbanShade's weapons can shoot down these evil Santas, they'd have to be able to one-shot a man who withstands kinetic energy equivalent to 39.96 Teratons of TNT (Country Level) and move at 3.9% light speed. (Relativistic)

Source:

So, yes. Awe inspiringly powerful. When taken into context with other tidbits of lore (IE. UrbanShade has been to hell and all of their employees are predestined to go there when they die.) paint a picture of UrbanShade as a devastatingly powerful and dangerous organization.

Full Cosmology

The Pressure Cosmology has a higher dimensional realm in it called the Mindscape.

This realm and everything in it is viewed as mere fiction by you, The Player.

The Player is repeatedly addressed by Sebastian and The Convict themself as an independent character on several occasions, with the Convict begging the Player to take their body back to safety when dying or Sebastian referring to various different convicts as the same person. Every time the Convict dies or makes it out alive, the Player just possesses a new Convict. Sebastian even meets up with the Player in between runs to give them information on whatever killed the Convict this time, at the behest of his "employer".

So, Pressure as a whole has the Mindscape transcending a 4D universe and a Player who transcends that, creating a 6D cosmology. Who scales to it? Well, it's difficult to say.

The Multi-Monster is an enigmatic eldritch monster cameoing from Doors who recognizes the Player from that game on sight, implying a shared cosmology. UrbanShade, who know of the Mindscape, consider him so dangerous that they refuse to have any unredacted information on him.

So he's a likely candidate for 5D.

There's also the strange Mr. Lopee. Implied to be Sebastian's "employer" who he gathers information for, Mr. Lopee takes it upon himself to kill the Convict if they ever fall out of bounds or fall behind other Players in the multiplayer. If the Convict dies to Lopee, Sebastian meekly says "he won't let me talk about that" as Lopee stands over him. So Lopee is certainly a major player in the plot, but he doesn't have enough to concretely scale him to anything yet.

Also Gaster is in it, but that's just a cameo. A shout out to an Undertale fan project a friend of the creator did. No Undertale/Pressure crossover scaling today sadly.

Conclusion:

Pressure on its surface is a pretty simple Roblox horror game that gets some comfortable Small Building Level scaling, but under its fascade is a deep lore that gets characters as high as City Block, City, and even Country Level, with some solid Low Complex Multiversal scaling for its God-Tiers.

Not bad. Definitely the most powerful Roblox verse I've ever seen. Not that I've seen very many tbf, I'm not a Roblox guy... City Block Level Sebastian is not something that I ever expected to see....

Now, it is a take in some circles of the power scaling community that the gap needed to definitively one shot a character through raw power alone is about 10x.

With that in mind, here's the final tally.

Weakened Good People, The Convict (and those who scale): 13 Tons of TNT (City Block Level)

Peak Good People: 91 Tons of TNT (City Block Level+)

Searchlights, Sebastian, Puddles of Void Mass: 130 Tons of TNT (Multi-City Block Level)

(Given that Sebastian casually throwing you around deals half your health, he casually slaughters those with better gear than the Convict, and he's generally considered one of the stronger monsters in the building going off how much trouble he gives UrbanShade in his document as opposed to how easily Good People are handled, I'm willing to put him in the one shot range even without his gun. He makes pretty clear you'd already be dead if he had any choice in the matter if you piss him off enough.)

(The Anglers specifically one shot with hax as opposed to raw power)

Trenchbleeder: 1300 Tons of TNT (Small Town Level)

Valcula Void Mass: 6.7 Megatons (City Level)

Analog Horror Christmas Tree and UrbanShade's weapons: 39.96 Teratons (Country Level)

The Mindscape: 5D (Low Complex Multiversal)

The Player: 6D (Complex Multiversal)

FTF: "Well, this is awkward... I guess we have three things in common."

FTF: Sebastian turned when he heard Wyatt's voice behind him and chuckled. "Will you look at that? I guess the Universe does have a fucked up sense of humor, after all" he said, while looking at how they were practically wearing the same outfit. "Are you mob fan as well?"

Leaning against the bar as she sipped her cocktail, Lottie had reserved to people watching before she went and explored the rest of the Halloween event. She was exhausted from her shift at the hospital, and taking her younger siblings trick or treating hadn't really helped lessen her sleepiness. Honestly, she really had just considered not doing Halloween this year and sleeping instead, but Julia had convinced her to go. They'd been talking about costumes for weeks, so she figured if she didn't show up she'd get an earful from the other girl. Especially since she'd changed her costume at the last second, not wanting to risk any PTSD triggering issues by being soaked in blood from head to toe like the Carrie costume required.

Granted, she'd chosen to dress as the female Eivor from Assassins Creed: Valhalla so she still had red paint on her face, but it wasn't the same as being soaked in it.

Seeing a guy dressed as a vampire come up to order a drink, she tilted her head a bit before taking a few steps closer and ordering herself another Witches Brew cocktail. "You look about as thrilled to be here as I am," she said with a smirk. "But at least the booze is cheap but still decent, and the games are interesting."

Sebastian made his way into the main area and looked around, seeing all the events that were currently going on. Sebastian was never much for Halloween - holidays in general to be honest - but he always made sure to show his face at the bash when it took place. If only for the cheap alcohol and company. Right now he was wearing a cheap cloak and a pair of fake teeth, a little bit of fake blood running down his chin. It was a simple costume to just get him through the day. He nodded to a few of the people he passed as he made his way to the bar, knowing he certainly didn't want to spend the day sober.

Arriving at the bar he ordered a cocktail and took out his teeth, taking a sip from the glass and letting out a sigh. Today was going to be a long day, but he'd make sure to get around to the majority of it. He still didn't know if he'd be hitting up the haunted walkthrough at all, that typically wasn't his speed.

Sebastian “Baz” Ramirez was born in the Bronx to Elena and Ricardo Ramirez and he is an only child. Fresh out of high school at the age of eighteen, Baz joined up with the US Army Rangers where he would spend the next eighteen years of his life until he was honourably discharged and after a year of being home joined up with the FBI, specifically the Fugitive Task Force.

There, he met Judith who had been working for the FBI for nearly five years at that point, spending the last two working with the FTF. Baz and Judith quickly became good friends, both being relatively new to the job and Judith having to travel quite a bit, taking her away from her family from time to time. 

After a particularly bad case early on in their partnership in which they had lost one of the two children they were trying to save, and Baz having to save Judith from almost being caught in the fire and subsequent explosion, the two now share an unbreakable bond. Judith is grateful to Baz for saving her and helping her realize that she wasn't responsible for the loss of the child.

Even after nearly eight years, Judith and Baz are still just as close, celebrating life events with each other, like Baz's wedding, his daughter Valé's birth, even all three of the Cadron kids' birthdays. Judith and Baz are both grateful to each other, knowing each of them is going to have the other's back and keep each other safe.

tenderhearted || henri & bast

Henri had known of her resident Equine veterinarian’s imminent departure for at least a couple weeks, and she’d struggled with the knowledge.  His blossoming relationship with Sebastian De Luca was impossible to ignore--the pair had lived on her property, after all; in a guesthouse that once held members of the Somerset family that had long since passed away, only to be reassigned to employees of her brother’s stables.  Bast had moved in with the Dom fairly recently, and his presence on Henri’s estate was a welcome one.

And now that her Veterinarian accepted a lucrative position overseas, he’d revealed to the Lady that where he was going, Bast could not come.  Though she understood his reasons, Henri’s heart broke within her chest at the words.  Upon tendering his resignation, both he, and Bast, would be vacating the guesthouse.  

That is what finds her entering the guest house looking for Bast, who had been packing up his belongings to move.  She stood in the doorway for a brief moment, silently watching him before he’d finally acknowledged her presence.  Without a word, she strode across the room toward him and took the submissive into her embrace, hugging him tightly while lowering them both to sit on the edge of the bed.

As they pulled apart, Henri rested her head on Sebastian’s shoulder and said:

FTF · Sebastian & Hunter · 10.17

Hunter had started to feel a little better about domination and submission and he figured it was time to start doing stuff. To keep his mind from negative thoughts that popped into his head, Hunter wanted to fill his time with people. Especially sex. While Hunter was always someone to not have sex with many people, he had been craving it a lot more than usual. Sebastian hadn’t been the person he expected to want to spend time with but he knew that the Dominant knew how to do things. He had approached Sebastian, in his mind being the submissive one in the situation. He knew that Sebastian could fall into that roll sometimes though so Hunter made his way to Sebastian with an open mind. He was feeling more open about his submission so he had no problem giving the Dominant a little sneak peek. He would just have to make sure that the other wouldn’t tell a soul. He licked his lips and knocked on the other’s door once he arrived. It was time to see how the roles were going to be filled.

face to face; sebastian & charlie

@rebelrockersebastian

It had been a weird day. A good day but a weird one. Hanging out with Sebastian was always fun and he always enjoyed it but there was some weird sort of tension emanating from the other that Charlie wasn’t particularly fond of. Maybe it was because they were both exhausted from the adventures they had been on earlier in the day, he didn’t know. What he did know was that he kind of wanted to call Sebastian out on what was up, and given they were in his trees it seemed like a somewhat fitting place to talk about it. He didn’t want to be too intrusive so instead of actually saying anything he simply laid himself down, carefully, resting his head on Sebastian’s lap. 

[alexsmuarchive]

"Well, this is a nice surprise.” Sebastian flashed a toothy smile as he made his way toward Florence, a confused and questioning look in his eyes as he quirked an eyebrow. Seeing her at his bar was a not something that happened often, so he wanted to cherish the moment. And, of course, add a bit of banter to the conversation. “You missed me, didn’t you? Because it’s either that, or you really wanted to watch the Vikings and the Seahawks... but something tells me I’m more entertaining than football.” He winked at her, leading her toward one of the booths and flagging over one of his servers. “Anything the lady wants” he gave the server a look, knowing he understood that he had to be on his best behavior, “and it’s on the house.” Turning back toward Florence he smiled again, wondering whether or not he should sit with her for the time being, “what brings you here?”

"I have actually," Lottie replied with a laugh as she reached around him, plucked the bag off the shelf and tossed it into the small hand-basket she held. "They have them in the vending machines at the hospital, and honestly they're not half bad. Same with the dill pickle ones.” Moving past him and towards the chips, she grabbed herself a couple bags of Sun Chips as Sebastian continued talking. Giving a quiet laugh at his assertion that everyone had had their taste buds removed, she turned around and leaned against the aisle a bit. "I'm sure you're not the only one who thinks that, but have you actually tried them? It's weird having those sort of flavors in chips, but it oddly works. You should at least try them before you knock them, though.”

"Are you seeing this? Cool Ranch flavored popcorn?" Incredulously, Sebastian poked the bag with his finger, as if expecting it to simply disappear at the touch. When it didn't, he turned his attention to Lottie, eyes widening as part of his dramatic display, really only half-joking. "Please tell me I'm not the only one that thinks that's insane, right? What is the world coming to? Was there some sort of incident that I just completely missed the news of? Something that removed people's taste buds?"

WARNINGS: #thots 

So. ‘Great hair, tight ass’ seemed to be a guy from Dalton named Sebastian, and while Jake wasn’t gay, he’d experimented here and there with a couple of guys in his dance class so he knew this was something he was pretty into. Knowing the guy was cocky was also a turn on, given the fact that Jake liked people who could take it as much as they gave. Maybe this wasn’t the smartest idea on a Sunday evening, but sometimes Jake Puckerman wasn’t someone who made the greatest decisions. Sometimes, he was known to think with other parts of his body instead of his head - and this was one of those times. He shot Sebastian a quick text, letting him know he was outside of Dalton. Jake had never been there, so he wasn’t sure where to go or where to meet him, so he waited outside for the guy with the great hair. At least he wasn’t going to be spending a boring Sunday night, that was for sure.

SMYTHE BROS - SORRY NOT SORRY

Alec moved around the dining room to help his mother set the table. Sunday dinners at their parents house had become mandatory as soon as they all moved out. Their mother insisted that she wanted to see all of her boys at least once a week so that’s how Sunday dinners came to be. He knew how quiet it could get with their father constantly being gone and that their mom got lonely. He was happy to spend not only time with her, but also get the chance to see his brothers when he knew how busy all of them could get. 

Setting the last bowl of food that the cook had meticulously made for the dinner on the table, Alec wiped his hands on his jeans and pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. He was always early and the first of the four to arrive, so it was no surprise that minutes after they were supposed to be there for dinner was when his brothers started trickling in. Sebastian had arrived with Jude hot on his tail, it taking another five minutes before Cam had arrived. Cam had his phone up to his ear, grinning as he shrugged off his jacket. “Yeah, I gotta go, family dinner. I’ll give you a call later, Tiger.” He chuckled, hanging up his phone and stuffing it in his pocket. “Hello, family.” He greeted, messing up Alec’s hair in passing as he headed for his father’s liquor cabinet.

WARNINGS: none.

Delivering pizzas wasn’t the most glamorous gig in the world. In fact, it kind of sucked sometimes, because it turned out that people could be pretty rude about things that were mostly out of Sam’s control, and a lot of people (especially super rich people, ironically) sucked at tipping. Sam obviously wouldn’t be doing it if he didn’t have to. It was a necessary evil right now, with his parents still struggling, and it was one of the only jobs that would even think of hiring someone his age. So he sucked it up.

A lot of his weekend deliveries were to families, but there were a few odd ones out, like this one, bringing him to a fancy private school outside of Lima. He found it okay and the dudes he brought the pizza to were cool (and in matching blazers, reminding him of his own old school uniform). The problem was when he tried to leave. He wasn’t familiar with the campus and had to do some searching to find the correct dorm in the first place, so he couldn’t quite remember where he’d parked his car, aside from recognizing it was... not near this building. Luckily, he caught someone passing by in one of those blazers. “Uh, ‘scuse me,” he called out, catching up to the other guy. “I’m not... I don’t go here, and I have no clue where the visitor’s parking is from here. I was hoping you could help me.”

Music was a very real passion of Rory’s, ever since he was young. It was intertwined in his life so much so that sometimes songs felt precious, not because of the meaning of the lyrics, but the feelings they gave him. It was why he’d learned how to play the guitar, why he wrote music, why he was in Glee club, why he did musicals. It was all so key to him, and the idea of sharing his favorite songs felt like such an overly intimate thing. The plan hadn’t initially been doing that, when he invited Sebastian over, but eventually it turned to him excitedly showing off his records and cd collections - Rory was a very organized hoarder, at the end of the day. “I have a lot,” he said after a minute, his eyes widened - he almost looked insane, but it was just excitement. “More important is my CD collection. Britney, 98 degrees, Arctic Monkeys... anything your heart desires,” he explained with an eager nod. “Not that... well, I don’t know what you’re into, darling, but feel free to find something you like, or you can introduce me to it. I’m an open minded boy.”

FTF | SEBLAINE | 05.14

WHO: Blaine Anderson and Sebastian Smythe. WHAT: Blaine returns from Ohio and Sebastian’s there to pick him up. WHERE: The airport. WHEN: Monday May 14th, afternoon. WARNINGS: None.

BLAINE

Blaine had been trapped in a state of excitement and nervousness the entire flight back to New York, and it had nothing to do with a phobia of flying. The moment he heard the voice of the flight attendant giving instructions to the passengers over the intercom to let them know that they were already in New York, he smiled, despite himself. 

He was able to see Sebastian again. Finally.

As much as he loved spending quality time with his family, he couldn’t deny the fact that the last few days had been brutal. With hundreds and hundreds of miles between himself and Sebastian, he had struggled just enough to get through the days, as time seemed to have moved even slower with each passing day.

While on the plane, Blaine had imagined a number of different scenarios that could unfold once he saw Sebastian’s face. But none of them could compare to when he finally saw him - standing right there waiting for him to come home. 

Sebastian.

Blaine’s heart thudded heavily against his chest, forcing the air from his lungs as he ran to him, not caring about leaving his luggage where it was. He was fairly certain he had pushed past a few people, but he couldn’t bring himself to care. Not here, not now. Not when he was finally back into Sebastian’s arms - where he truly belonged.  

“Who are you and what have you done to my boyfriend?” Blaine smiled fondly up at Sebastian, who looked like the Sebastian he remembered yet so much more.
