I just cannot stop thinking about Wyll reacting to The House of Hope

[bitethedevil]

“Hm,” I think to myself as I step onto a platform. “Did I already talk to Raphael earlier? I guess I must have.”

I take two steps forward.

The fucking Vine Boom Sound Effect goes off at max volume, shattering my eardrums immediately. An explosion flashes over the screen. I can’t see anything except for my life flashing before my eyes. My heart has shot straight through the ceiling. Children are crying in the distance.

A little shit appears amidst the flames to recite lullabies at me.

Jack strolls into the house, heading immediately for the kitchen, and continuing the animated conversation that occupied the entire drive over. That he was alone in the car and upon entrance has gained an audience doesn't break his stride-- pace or verbal deluge. Mac's a smart guy, he'll pick up the topic and register his opinions-

Within the depths of the fridge, Jack stops short, bumping the back of his head as he quickly backs up, straightening, and staring intently into the living room.

Sitting on the sofa, Mac stares back. 

Jack crosses his arms as the refrigerator door swings closed. "What's wrong?"

Mac's gaze darts around the room as though searching for whatever raised Jack's hackles, before returning to Jack. "What do you mean?"

"Something's wrong." Jack takes a step toward the living room. He too scans the room, though his stare is slower, piercing and precise before lingering on Mac. 

"Something's wrong?" Mac repeats with an air of skepticism.

"Yeah. Why are you repeating me?"

Mac scoffs. "I'm not repeating you." Before Jack can retort, Mac shakes his head and continues. "I'm trying to figure out how you can walk in here, distracted by an argument you were waging against yourself, yet still apparently losing, barely look around and declare that something is wrong.” 

"Oh ho,” Jack leans a shoulder against the wall. “You are good."

"I'm good? Wait. No. I'm still not repeating." Mac squeezes the bridge of his nose. "I am just sitting here."

"Yeah,” Jack’s brow furrows. He straightens, feeling the pieces of the puzzle beginning to come together like he’s that one French detective from the movies Bozer makes them watch, and steps into the living room. “You’re sitting. On the couch."

"That is why I brought it. It's not just for you to sleep on."

"Sitting on the couch like a normal person sits on the couch. Not sprawled across it like a teenager with limbs askew in all directions just begging for back pain and bad posture.” 

Mac snorts but it lacks amusement. He doesn’t rise to the usual ‘tease Jack about getting old’ bait like he normally would. 

“So, you want to tell me what’s up?” Jack sits on the old trunk which doubles as a coffee table. 

"I... " Mac sighs and splices together three or four words under his breath.

Jack squints, tipping one ear closer to Mac, trying to decipher the mangled phrase. “Say again?” 

Looking up, Mac enunciates, "I tweaked my knee."

Jack winces. "Trail running? I told you you need some better shoes if you're gonna be out there jumping over logs and scaling mountains."

"I wasn't trail running." Mac pauses between his words as though each one is painfully eking out.

Jack cants his head.

"I stood up wrong."

Jack's face twitches. He's a government agent, damn it. He's got a better poker face than this.

"Shut up," Mac glowers.

"I'm sorry." Jack swallows his emotions. It’s not amusement. He’s not sure what emotion he would call it, but it’s sure not amusement. He’d never find anything funny about Mac getting injured. If anything, this emotion is concern. “You stood up... wrong?"

“It’s not funny.”

“No. It’s not funny. I’ve been sitting here thinking it’s not funny,” Jack defends himself. 

“You’re smirking.”

“I’m not smirking. I wouldn’t smirk if I heard you got hurt.”

“Even if I hurt myself by standing up weird?” 

“No.” 

“Oh. Thought maybe you’d see this as some sort of payback.”

“You mean for the fifteen years I’ve spent sharing my wisdom with you and you ignore it because you’re young and your joints still work like they’re supposed to and you couldn’t imagine waking up one day and suddenly something as simple as standing up can leave you limping and hobbling around for the rest of the day?” 

“Yeah.”

“Nah.” 

“Oh okay. Thought maybe it would be something like that.” 

“And I could see how you might think that. A less sensitive, empathetic man might.” 

Mac hums. 

“You need an ice pack?” 

“I’ve been thinking about getting one.” Mac sighs, looking toward the kitchen. “Don’t want to try getting up yet though.”

“Do you need a doctor?”

“No.”

Jack eyes him carefully.

“I did think about it-” Mac hurries to continue as Jack stares harder. “I want to wait it out. If I’m wrong you can gloat.” 

“I wouldn’t gloat either.” 

“Right. No smirking. No gloating. Got it. I’ll remind you.” 

Jack stands, knees creaking. “No smirking from over there either.” 

“No smirking.” Mac winces in sympathy at the sound. 

Jack pats Mac’s shoulder as he passes. 

“You were like my age when we met.” 

“Huh, I guess so. About a year older.” Jack grabs an ice pack from the freezer and returns to the living room. 

“I remember thinking you were ancient.” Mac reaches out to accept the proffered ice pack.

“Hey!” Jack withdraws his hand before the exchange is made.  

“At twenty-one you seemed old. Listening to the way you groaned when you got out of the humvee, that seemed a whole lot older than I feel now. Or at least older than I felt this morning.”

Jack nods in concession as he settles on the couch next to Mac and passes over the ice pack. Mac claps it on his knee. With a groan he raises his leg and positions it on a pillow.

“One day you’re able to sit all curled up like a pretzel, and the next you sneeze and can’t turn your neck for three weeks.” 

“I am almost sorry I teased you all these years.”

“Almost?”

“Well, I mean, compared to me you’re still like ancient. I have a few good years of teasing before it comes back to bite me.”

Jack opens his mouth to protest, then purses his lip. “You know, I’d grab that ice pack and run but honestly, watching you try to move that leg makes me hesitant to try it.” 

“It wasn’t fun.”

“Didn’t look like it was. Last thing we need is to explain to Matty how the both of us got taken out getting up from the couch.” 

Mac flops back on the sofa, blond hair splaying against the cushions. He drops his arm across his eyes. “That’s going to be almost as much fun as moving my leg.”

“I don’t envy that.” Jack leans forward with a grunt and scoops up the remote control. “Die Hard?”

Mac shrugs, eyes still covered by his arm. “Might as well. Don’t think I’m moving for a bit.” 

“Yippee-ki-yay.”

Money is kind of tight for me right now so I decided to do something I've literally never done before: I'm taking commissions for my writing! Which is kind of terrifying and very intimidating for me! Please go easy on me! I've included a list of my rules and basic prices below as well as linked my Ko-fi account for easy access to my commission prices. The Ko-fi link will also be accessible under the Commissions tab on my page.

Request a Fanfic of your choice based on word count, ship/character(s), prompt of choice, etc.! Fee is based on preferred word count of the fic you're looking for. Self-inserts and OC/Canon characters are able to be requested as well. NSFW fics will cost $25.00 more as it is outside of my usual writing zone.

List of prices: Short Length 100-500 words - 15USD Medium Length 501-1000 words- 30USD Long Length 1001-1500 words- 45USD Long Shot 6000+ words - 100USD

You will receive a copy of the fanfic via .docx or .pdf (whichever is your preferred choice) as well as the fic being posted to my AO3 and Tumblr account with you tagged as the gifted user for it. Be sure to include your tumblr, x, and/or Ao3 username if you have one for the gift to come through on your account(s)!

Delivery turn-around will depend on length of fic. I.E. Short Fics will not take as long as Long Fics which in turn will not take as long as Long Shots.

Payment is required no later than upon completion of the fic and will not be posted or sent to you without payment.

Fandoms I know and can write for easily: Ace Attorney Stardew Valley My Time at Portia/My Time at Sandrock My Hero Acadamia/Boku No Hero Acadamia Overwatch/Overwatch 2 CoD Modern Warfare 2 FNAF: Security Breach Homestuck (Knowledge is rusty though and I will have to do some research) Coral Island Baldur's Gate 3 Harry Potter/Hogwarts Legacy Legend of Zelda Pokemon Persona 3/4/5 Fire Emblem: Awakening, Fate, Three Houses & Engage Dragon Age Mass Effect Stranger Things Tiger and Bunny Hetalia Black Butler

You're welcome to request anything outside of these fandoms but it may be turned down based on complexity of lore/characters when researching.

**NOTE: I will not write anything including R@pe/N0n-c0nsent, !nc3st, b3ast!ality, or p3d0ph!l!a. Characters must either both be adults or both be of the age of consent.

No refunds will be offered for completed fics. Feel free to message me on any questions you have before commissioning.

(Have I mentioned I find all this terrifying and intimidating? Bc I do...)

New Digital Locks with Lever Handles

In the market for a digital keypad lock, but find that the handles that come with it are too hard to grip and turn? Introducing the new Superlock with Lever Handles from Gatemaster.

In a world where security and style go hand in hand, the Lever Handle Superlock emerges, setting standards for both residential and commercial spaces.

The Digital Lever Handle Superlock is a high-quality gate lock with return-to-door lever handles that are easier to operate than the traditional style, particularly for people with mobility issues or for those who find gripping and turning difficult. The Lever Handle Superlock stands out for its contemporary and elegant design. The sleek lever handle adds a touch of modernity to any gate, making it an ideal choice for those who prioritise both security and style.

The lock is equipped with a digital keypad providing a secure method of access control and eliminating the need for physical keys, which reduces the risk of key loss or theft. This can be particularly convenient in situations where multiple people need access, and distributing physical keys may be impractical.

man, i was having doubts about romancing wyll as astarion (mostly bc karlach is also RIGHT THERE) but then i had astarion confess he was a vampire spawn and wyll's answer made me laugh so much. does this mean he knew the whole time in my tavs' playthrus as well? literal monster hunter immediately clocked that tav was traveling with a vampire spawn and just went, "eh, he's cute though so i'll let it slide." that's perfect. romance activated.

[owlbearwildshape]

in my playthrough when Astarion ended up with like +17 to lockpicking checks I imagine he was just doing them like that guy on tiktok that opens them in 2 seconds with an air of disgust
