CINDERELLA───JOE BURROW

request: "Reader is going out with girlies and dressed sexy that joe almost got mad at reader cuz he doesn’t want reader going out with that dress and suddenly obsessed with boobies and told reader they cant breath in that dress" for @crispppykreme

The dress wasn’t new, but it might as well have been, given how long it had languished at the back of your closet. A slinky little thing, sleek black with a neckline that danced on the edge of scandal and just enough shimmer to catch the light in all the right places. It was the kind of dress that didn’t just suggest confidence—it demanded it.

You were proud of how you looked, admiring yourself in the full-length mirror, twisting slightly to check every angle. The effort had paid off: hair done, makeup sharp, heels that made your legs look miles long. Tonight was about the girlies, a rare night out that wasn’t dinner and wine but cocktails and dancing, the kind of carefree, late-night escapades you hadn’t had in months.

Joe had been fine about it earlier, or at least you thought he had. There was an absentminded “Have fun, baby,” thrown your way when you’d mentioned your plans this morning. But now, as his eyes scanned you from head to toe like he was taking inventory, you could feel the tension radiating off him from across the room.

“You’re really wearing that?” His voice wasn’t loud, but it carried an edge that made you freeze mid-reach for your clutch. You turned slowly, eyebrow raised, trying to read the expression on his face.

“Uh, yeah? What’s wrong with it?” You kept your tone light, playful, even though the way he was looking at you made your skin prickle. Joe wasn’t one to throw around his opinions about your outfits, and honestly, you appreciated that about him. He knew you had your own style, your own vibe. But tonight? Something about tonight had apparently made him forget that.

He stepped closer, his hand running down his face as he let out a slow, deliberate sigh. “It’s not that it’s bad. It’s just…” His gaze dropped to your chest, and he gestured vaguely in that direction. “That dress. I mean, are you sure it’s comfortable? They—uh, you—don’t look like you can even breathe in it.”

For a second, you just blinked at him, your brain scrambling to catch up. Then it hit you, and the corner of your mouth twitched despite yourself.

“Oh,” you said, the teasing lilt unmistakable. “That’s what this is about.”

Joe crossed his arms, clearly trying to play it cool, but the flush creeping up his neck betrayed him. “I’m just saying. It’s kind of… tight, don’t you think?”

You couldn't stop the grin spreading across your face, even as Joe tried—and failed—to keep his cool. He was too easy to read, the faint crease between his brows giving him away completely.

“Oh, come on,” you teased, grabbing your clutch and turning back toward the mirror. “You’ve seen me wear tighter.”

“That’s not the point,” he shot back, his voice firmer now, enough to make you glance at him in the mirror. He was standing with his arms crossed, leaning against the doorframe like some kind of judgmental Greek statue, all broad shoulders and furrowed brows.

“Then what is the point, Joe?” you asked, raising an eyebrow. “Because I’m getting the vibe that it’s not about how tight this dress is.”

He huffed, running a hand through his hair in that way he always did when he was trying to sort through his words. “The point is,” he said slowly, “you’re going out looking like… like that. And I know exactly how guys are gonna act when they see you.”

You turned around now, giving him your full attention. “Guys? Plural? Is that what this is about?”

“It’s not about guys,” he said quickly, but the words came out too rushed, too defensive. He shifted his weight, unfolding his arms, clearly trying to walk the line between annoyed and reasonable. “It’s about… I don’t know. I just don’t want anyone thinking they can look at you like that.”

“Like what?” you asked, stepping closer, biting back a laugh as you pressed your palm to his chest. His heartbeat thumped steadily beneath your hand, but you could feel the tension in him.

“Like… like you’re up for grabs or something.” His jaw clenched, and his eyes darted away from yours, like saying it out loud embarrassed him.

You blinked, genuinely taken aback for a moment. “Joey,” you said, softening your tone, “you realize that’s not how this works, right? Just because I look good doesn’t mean I’m inviting attention. And even if someone does look—so what? I’m coming home to you.”

His eyes flicked back to yours at that, softening slightly, but his lips pressed into a stubborn line. “Yeah, but you’re mine,” he muttered, the words barely audible but so pointed they hung heavy in the air.

You couldn’t help it—you burst out laughing. “Yours?” you repeated, shaking your head in disbelief. “What, are you going to put a sticker on me that says ‘Property of Joe Burrow’?”

He groaned, his hand raking through his hair again. “You know that’s not what I mean.”

“Do I?” you shot back, a playful smirk tugging at your lips. “Because it kinda sounds like you’re saying I can’t wear what I want unless it gets your approval.”

“That’s not what I’m saying at all!” he said quickly, but the way his ears were turning pink made you think he was second-guessing himself.

“Then what?” you asked, crossing your arms now, mirroring his earlier stance. “Because, if you think I’m changing out of this dress just because it makes you nervous, you’ve got another thing coming.”

He stared at you for a moment, his jaw working, clearly torn between frustration and surrender. “It’s not nervous,” he mumbled finally. “It’s just… look, you’re too damn sexy, okay? There. I said it. And I'm not there to make sure nobody thinks they can have you.”

You raised an eyebrow, your grin growing wider. “Ohhh, I see,” you said, dragging out the words. “So, this isn’t about the dress at all. It’s about you being jealous.”

His face scrunched like he wanted to deny it, but the words caught in his throat. Instead, he settled for muttering, “I’m not jealous.”

“Right,” you said, stepping closer to him again. “Because you’re totally fine with me going out looking like a ‘damn goddess,’ as I’m sure some guy at the bar is going to say.”

Joe groaned again, tipping his head back against the doorframe. “Do you have to do this?”

“Yes,” you said brightly, standing on your toes to press a kiss to his cheek. “Because it’s fun watching you squirm.”

He sighed, his hands finally coming to rest on your hips, pulling you in closer. “I’m serious, though,” he said, his voice lower now, quieter. “You look amazing. Too amazing. And I trust you—I do—but that doesn’t mean I trust every drunk guy who’s gonna see you tonight.”

“I can handle drunk guys,” you said softly, wrapping your arms around his neck. “And besides, you know I’d never let anyone get too close.”

“I know,” he admitted, resting his forehead against yours. “I just hate the idea of someone thinking they even have a chance.”

“Well, they don’t,” you said simply, smiling up at him. “You’re the only one who gets to peel me out of this dress later.”

His lips twitched into a smirk at that, and you could feel some of the tension leaving his shoulders. “Yeah, you’re damn right I am.”

You grinned, giving him another quick peck on the lips before stepping back. “Now, are you done being dramatic, or do I need to remind you that this is my night out?”

He sighed, letting his arms drop but not stepping back. “Fine,” he said, though his tone still had a hint of reluctance. “But if you’re not home by midnight, I’m calling.”

You laughed, grabbing your Chanel clutch and heading for the door. “Sure, Cinderella. Whatever you say.”

Options, Aran Ojiro.

you weren’t used to dealing with someone one who had as many options as you, especially not with anyone you dealt with behind closed doors. pnd inspired lol.

cw: smut, sneaky linksss, texts, jealousy, cursing, arguing, pet names (baby, ma, pa, daddy), dirty talk, missionary (aran loves to look at your pretty face).

it’s homecoming week at your university, the streets and sidewalks of campus are filled with more than the normal amount of students. house parties being planned around every corner, and food trucks and goody stands wherever you turn. it was a weekend to be alive but for you it turned out to be a weekend full of surprises. the night was still young while you put on the final touches of accessories to pull your outfit together. snapping a couple mirror pics away as you waited for your friends to finish their pregame rituals. “one more shot then we gotta go!” your best friend gizelle giggled, alcohol already coursing through her system and you haven’t even left for the party yet.

you laughed to yourself, continuing to scroll through your phone and weeding out the pictures you didn’t like until a text from a certain someone came across your screen. a smile curving into your lips as you read over the message.

‘can’t wait to see you, ain seen yo fine ass all day.’

“c’mon y/n! take a shot with me!” sending a quick reply you stood, waving your hands in refusal, a flustered smile on your face. “you know i can’t hold liquor.” gizelle smacked her lips, grabbing and pulling you towards the island. “bitch it’s homecoming! throw it back.” placing a shot glass with a slice lime on its rim in your hand. filled with nothing but her fav alcohol, don julio. you timidly lift the glass to your lips. gizelle playfully rolling her eyes and pushing the cup to your lips for you to down, watching your face scrunch in disgust with a giggle. “now we’re ready t’go.”

soon as the door opened the smells of alcohol, weed, and other substances filled your nose. clouded over ceilings and music thumping from the speakers while you and your girls weaved through the crowd straight towards the kitchen. where different bowls of punch made by the greeks were lined up on the table, “so what y’all feeling? i’m leaning towards oil, centaur piss or tiddy milk.” your friend gizelle grabbed a couple cups, you laughed reading over the labels. “greeks always come up with the freakiest shit for drinks.”

you settled for the tiddy milk, joining your friends who were drunkenly rapping and dancing to the music. sipping on the pina colada flavor drink as you glanced over the crowded room. eyes being met with low ones that were already on you. chilling against the wall in rotation, black fit contrasting nice against his deep caramel skin. your mystery boo, aran ojiro. he gives you a smirk and a acknowledging wink, leaving you flustered with a small smile. trying your best to focus on your friends but you kept looking back over your shoulder, body feigning to be by his side. the only thing grabbing your attention is your phone flashing and buzzing in your hand with a thread of texts.

‘you look so good’

‘can’t wait to have yo sexy ass to myself tn.’

‘pretty ass’

‘you givin’ me them looks, must be ready to go’

you give him a glance, aran practically eye fucking you from across the room as he took a long pull of the blunt. you throw him a small innocent nod, your friends picking up on the signs and having a silent conversation between themselves. exchanging looks of ‘she finna leave us for some dick’ and longs sips of their drinks in agreement ‘mhmm’. gizelle finally speaking up with quick bump to the side. “leaving soon?” you suck your teeth and roll your eye’s playfully, ignoring your friends teasing to focus on your boo. aran texting you a quick ‘bet’ pushing himself off the wall and getting ready to make his exit until a girl walked up on him, tugging on his shirt to bring him closer with a smile as she spoke with him.

your eyebrow raised with a scoff, eyeing the interaction from across the room. blood beginning to boil at how long the two have been talking. “ain’t nobody worth leavin’ for.” you say to your friend, turning your back on aran, setting your phone on do not disturb and focusing on the group of girl for the rest of the night. trying your best to not let someone you weren’t even exclusively dating get to you, but your friends definitely noticed the slight shift. “you good girl?”

you nodded, deciding to call it a night. you weren’t one to dampen the mood and mope around your friends. “m’ just tired, been out all day..” gizelle nodded, not asking anymore questions and dropping you off to your dorm, ready to listen whenever your ready to share. the drive back was quiet but comfortable, soft music playing through the speakers. you just staring out at the road post in your thoughts. you didn’t understand what was going on with you. yeah you liked aran, but the traits and behaviors you were throwing you off. some were good and some were bad, like jealousy.

an emotion you never really displayed until now, not even with previous flings or boyfriends. you never really had to compete for anyone’s attention, so where you found yourself now was was new.. and embarrassing. “see you tomorrow luv.” you blew her a kiss, grabbing your things and hopping out the car. walking toward the complex entrance, you found aran waiting for you. ignoring him you walked straight to the door, searching in your purse for your keys. “wassup, so you ignoring me now?” you shook your head, back still turned to him as you placed your id on the reader, unlocking the door. “didn’t think you cared whether i ignored you or not..

“you seemed to have a good convo with ole girl at the party..”

“so you gone be like this over a girl talkin’ to me?” aran raised a brow in confusion, turning you around to face him. you gave him little time though, pulling out your phone and texting your friends you made it home. “aran i’m wayyy too drunk for this conversation right now.” but you were interrupted by him snatching your phone out of your hand.

“man look..” he sighed, placing your phone in his pocket. “m’ not about to do this childish bullshit with you, so what’s up with you.” you shrugged your shoulders, finally facing him with a facade of no emotion. “it doesn’t matter, aran. none of this shit matters.” aran’s face flashing with confusion, taken back by your response. “you could wake up one morning deciding to ghost me for that girl who was feeling all up on you tonight, or any of the options in yo roster and it wouldn’t be shit i could do about it. so why would you care if i’m mad huh?!”

“so you wanna pull that card? you know i ain’t even on that timing.” aran sucked his teeth, jaw clenching with agitation. “everytime i show you any type of progress to something more YOU RUN. that shit confusing!” you close your arms around yourself, embarrassed that he truly paid attention to you and your actions. “whatever aran, can i just get my phone.” he scoffed, running his tatted hand down his face with a sarcastic laugh leaving his lips. “now it’s whatever, shit don’t feel good do it?”

“you the first girl in a while that i felt was fucking with me for me and not some basketball wife fantasy.” aran breathed out, pausing for a second before going on. “you ain’t gotta fight for no spot that already reserved for you ma.” head falling down in defeated with his hands in his pockets.

“but you think i’m privileged or this lil boy who playing games..”

“i don’t think your either aran..” you slowly approached him, engulfing him in a tight hug. aran nuzzled into your neck, hands wrapped tight around your waist as he melted into the sweet smell of your perfume. nothing no longer exchanged because everything had already be said with those few words. aran pulled back, looking into your eyes before closing your lips in a deep, heated kiss. eyes darting all over his face once he pulled back, “still staying with me tonight? so i can hold and kiss on you.”

“hm i don’t know.” hiding your smirk in his neck, trying to continue your pouty attitude, aran smacked his teeth rubbing his hands all over your curves. squeezing on the soft flesh of your ass. “c’mon mama, come home with me.” you sighed, giving him a soft smile. mind set on giving him a hard time the rest of the night as he tries to make it up to you but not even five minutes passed in his room before you were puddy in his arms.

your anklets dangling next your ear while aran folded you up in his bed, ready to split you open. your whines sounding off the walls as his heavy dick slapped down on your throbbing clit. “looka that wet ass pussy..” running it through your slit and teasing your entrance with his tip before sinking into you deep, eyes rolling back with a moan as he caressed your sweet spot within. aran watching the white ring form around the base from how eagerly you sucked him in. keeping that steady pace that had you leaking for him, your hand pushing at his pelvis to keep him from going too deep, only for him to remove it and place it on your lower belly. pushing it down for you to feel him fucking you in ways you’ve never felt before. “feel me huh? m’ all yours mama, this yo dick.”

“ain’t no reason to trip”

your back arching into his at the deep slow pace he maintained, making sure you feel every single inch he gave you. stretching and filling you full while his thumb circled your clit and setting the fire in the pit of your stomach ablaze, legs shaking in his hold. “o-ohhh my g-goddd, paaa.” his eyes flickering from your pooling mess to your glazed over eyes, moaning at how you clenched down on him. “i know baby, i know..”

oncoming orgasm swelling your walls and trying to push him out. “open up for daddy.” slowly hardening his thrust, hips slamming against your pelvis with precision. moans catching in your throat as aran watches your pretty brown breast bounce in his hold, nipples hard and erect from the cool air against your scorching skin. aran wrapping a strong hand around your neck leaning in and giving you a sloppy kiss, slipping his tongue in your mouth and swallowing every moan you let out for him. aran pulled back with a smirk, lips red and wet from the kiss. “you still mad at me..?” you came hard, creamy arousal coating his dick and pelvis. aran slowly stroking you through your orgasm with a smile.

“nah, you ain’t mad..”

some CHB headcanons

every cabin has LEDs around the inside, but there’s a constant battle over what color they are

Percy has his rippling back and forth from teal to blue and it looks like light dancing through water all over his walls and floor

the Apollo cabin can usually settle for orange and yellow as a common ground

the Aphrodite kids have a different color for each time of day and sleep with pink on the lowest brightness setting

the Hermes cabin has like ten different strips and they’re all constantly shifting

Demeter cabin’s shifts with the seasons

ANYWAYS MOVING AWAY FROM THE LEDS

they have movie nights, which I will talk about in a different post

before everybody goes back to school, the Aphrodite and Hecate cabins have a massive salon at the end of the summer with new haircuts and magic hair dye and outfit recommendations and fake but enchanted sturdy nails and a whole bunch of other stuff and basically it’s a week straight of spilling hot tea between everyone in camp

if someone asks where a camper got their hair done when they get back to school they just go “oh, um… summer camp.” and their friends will snort and be like bro isn’t summer camp the opposite of a makeover?? but they get no argument, just a shrug and a half smile

when I tell you pride month over there is a fucking riot

because Mr. D is in on it, right?? because he’s the god of gender?? and Chiron is aroace and has been raising dumbass gay heroes for literal centuries?? PLUS the sheer fucking amount of queer peeps up in there?? dude yeah

cabins competing for who shows the most pride

Demeter’s roof is covered in rainbow flowers

Hecate’s is enchanted to emit actual light in whatever flag colors of whoever uses the front door, even when they’re straight (it’s just a rainbow)

Percy collects a bunch of shed scales from the hippocampi at the bottom of the lake and then puts them all over his cabin

I could make a whole post about CHB pride but

every single Apollo kid is also a theater kid fight me

Rachel Elizabeth Dare painted a skateboard for Percy’s birthday and he brings it everywhere now, it even sits in his backpack at school

Leo, Annabeth, Percy, and Piper fucking love horror movies. Frank, Hazel, and Jason fucking hate them. They watch through their fingers, if at all

Piper loves the band Surfaces with all her heart, but she also is a die hard Green Day and P!ATD fan

Jake Mason is covered in burn scars up to his neck, just like Deadpool, just not bald lol

Hephaestus and Apollo kids faintly radiate warmth (like more so than a normal person)

the Stolls sometimes stay at camp year-round because their mom is off on international missions that are too high-risk for them to help with

the seven are AVID Smash Bros players

really everyone but

not as many people go to the Athena campers for help with homework as you might think, but whenever anyone does, they’re happy to help

the sun chariot blasts music at a frequency only the Apollo kids can hear, so their life kind of has a shitty soundtrack that consists of a mix of Broadway, Queen, modern stuff, and random bits of Beethoven every now and then

the Romans swear on few occasions

the Greeks know when to swear and when to be polite

the Valhalla peeps swear unbridled and all the time

the Egyptians never swear (in English)

for the longest time, Will Solace thinks the only gift from his dad is his healing prowess— which is obviously great, but he expresses being upset over the fact that he’s not very good at archery

well, considering this is the dumbass who didn’t bring a weapon to actual fucking Tartarus, Nico drags him to the weapon shack thing immediately afterwards and made him pick something out

he's immediately drawn to the Celestial Bronze shotgun.

Nico’s just like “what in the redneck shit did you just pick up” and Will jokingly aims it at his chest and grins and says “you know I’m from Texas, right?”

that’s how they find out Will is one of the damn best marksmen in Greek demigod history

some of the Disney nerds in the Apollo cabin sing What Once Was Mine to the little ones who need bandaids for knee scrapes and give them lollipops afterwards

Percy Jackson absolutely used to make poverty and struggle meal jokes all the time, but he got weird and concerned looks for it at CHB, so he kind of just stopped. But one day, aboard the Argo II, the PERFECT opportunity came up and he just HAD TO and as per usual— everyone else looked at him like he’s crazy— but Leo laughed so hard chocolate milk came out of his nose and that’s the story of how the two of them became Best Friends

would you? | harry styles x model!oc

summary: The show goes off without a hitch, but Lina's interaction with Harry before clouds her mind. At the after party, she takes one for the team when Gigi tries to get in with other One Direction member, Zayn Malik. Ironic meetings lead to a first date. Part 3 of the Masks series.

part 1 here! part 2 here!

warnings: mentions of drugs, disordered eating, vomit, anxiety, alcohol, allusions to sex

a/n: This one was so much fun to write! The parts are getting longer from here.I hope you like it!

word count: about 2.4k

Holy shit these were some high heels. 

Lina danced in place, shaking the nerves that wracked her body as she prepared to walk the stage. Sweat accumulated beneath the bra and underwear---if you could even call them that. Gilded Angels was the theme this year and, goddamn, did Lina feel absolutely gilded. 

The set she wore was less fabric and more faux metal. It appeared that gold had been molded to cup her breasts, pushing them up beyond what she ever thought possible. Her wings were white, like Biblical angel wings, with gold dusted tips. Gold heels wove their way up her calves like Greek sandals. She felt holy. And really fucking hot---in both ways. 

Taylor Hill, who was opening the show, shimmied behind the curtains, lost in the heavy fabric. It was clearly go time, which usually spurred Lina to focus and quit her nervous movement. Today, she couldn’t calm herself down. Pictures of that messy haired Brit flooded her mind. She would be lying if she said she wasn’t at least a little excited to walk past him in this outfit. 

You look good. 

That’s what he said to her just an hour ago. Her head was covered in curlers, robe disheveled, eyes closed. She was giddy at the thought of him seeing her all done up. I look better than good now.

Lina squealed as two strong hands shook her shoulders from behind. “Let’s fucking go, Li!” Gigi shrieked, smacking a kiss to her cheek. The girls laughed, jumping up and down. Gigi had a way of making everything seem like just a game.

“Don’t fuck up my hair, Gi,” Lina said, giggling. Gigi’s hands spun Lina to face her. 

Ignoring her comment, Gigi grabbed her face. “I don’t walk until Taylor’s on stage,” she said, clearly excited to walk while her friend performed. Lina had become quite used to being surrounded by stars, but she was a little too excited at the thought of talking to Taylor Swift. She and Gigi had become close since the Oscars earlier that year, and Lina was hoping that would give her and in.

“I walk in…” Lina searched the room for a clock. “Four minutes.”

“I saw you talking to Harry Styles earlier,” Gigi whispered, wiggling her brows. “You seemed to be laughinggg and smilinggg and…” she lowered her voice even more, “flirtinggg…”

“Ugh, leave me alone,” Lina rolled her eyes. “We met at that masquerade thing in October.” Gigi covered her mouth with a hand.

“Why didn’t you te---”

“Because there’s nothing to tell.” Gigi started again but Lina put a hand up. “Really, it wasn’t my best moment. He was just teasing me about it earlier.” Gigi wiggled her brows again. “I was puking in the men’s bathroom, Gi. If there was ever a chance in hell he would be into me, it’s long gone.”

“I’m going to pretend that’s not the strangest thing I’ve heard today,” Gigi said, a crease appearing between her brows. “Anyway, if he really thought you were that weird, he probably would’ve stayed far away from you today. But he didn’t.” Her laugh was more of a hehe.

“I can barely look him in the eye. God, that was terrible, I---” Lina was interrupted by her name being called by the show’s producers. “Time to go. I talk to you later, baby.”

Lina’s hand was pulled towards the curtains. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to center herself as hand flew all around her, adjusting her wings, tousling her hair, and freshening her gloss. 

Lina recognized the song she was set to walk out to. Rock Me. She didn’t think One Direction would have songs that would fit a VS show. They were so…teenage girl. But this song was a bit dirtier, and it had a nice beat. She put on her super sexy and poised model mask and stepped out from behind the curtain. 

The band members were scattered about the runway. Her eyes found Harry at the end immediately. Her shoulders thrown back, she began her walk, smiling and winking at the boys she passed by. She thought one of her wings may have wacked Niall in the face, but she tried not to think much about it. 

She reached Harry after what seemed like a decade of walking. She was too nervous to look him in the eye. She wondered if, when he looked at her now, he still saw the puking corpse he saw a few months ago. 

Harry was certainly not hurting for confidence. He grabbed her hand and spun her around, leading her to walk back down the runway. Lina, as hard as it was, kept up her flirty persona, looking back over her shoulder to wink at him before slowly letting go of his hand. The walk back felt a bit like flying. 

The rest of the show went by in a blur. It was Gigi’s first time walking the show, but no one would’ve been able to tell. Her confidence oozed through every pore of her perfect face. When she got off the stage, she was bouncing off the walls, ready to find some sort of shit food to consume ASAP.

But there was an after party to attend. Lina peeled herself out of her outfit, carefully handing it to the women who surrounded her, ready to rip it from her hands. It wasn’t strange to be naked in front of so many people anymore. She’d been doing it since she was 16. She tried not to think about that part too much. 

Her new outfit consisted of a vintage VS slip, of course, with some artfully ripped tights, and heeled boots that cut off just below the knee. With her hair thrown back loosely into a pony, she felt sufficiently prepared to face her first celebrity party since the ball. 

Darren congratulated her on (his words) another fantastic show. She smiled, mind elsewhere, and got into the car, whose door he held open. 

The ride to the venue was not more than 15 minutes, but for all Lina knew, it could’ve been hours. Her mind was set on exactly what she would say to Harry when she saw him, because she knew she’d see him. His band was full of a bunch of 20 something boys. They would not pass up the opportunity to go to a party full of drinks and models. 

Darren noticed her not-quite-on-Earth-ness and waved a hand in front of her face. She swatted at it, rolling her eyes.

“Thinking about that One Way kid?” he asked.

“What the fuck are you talking about, Darren?” Lina snorted. 

“Whatever, the British kid with the hair. I don’t care to know more about him that I have to.”

“You don’t have to know anything.”

“When he comes to your room tonight, or you go to his, it will be my job to know about him.”

Lina blushed and buried her face in her hands. “Darren, you perv!”

“Trust me, I wish I didn’t have to think about these things. But I saw him leaning on that table earlier, like he’s some sort of Elvis. It was embarrassing how hard he was trying, honestly.”

“I told you about our…run in in October, right? He was just making fun of me,” She said still not looking at him. “And, not that it’s any of your business, but I don’t make it a habit of going to any guys room before I’ve been taken on a proper date.”

It was Darren’s turn to cover his face. “I’m glad.”

“Yeah, yeah, whatever. Can we please stop talking about this? It feels like discussing my sex life with my father.”

Darren winced. “I’d love nothing more.”

The car pulled up to the hotel the party was taking place in. Although it was dark, it was hard not to spot it. A massive crowd of paparazzi was piled on the steps to the entrance. 

“Fucking perfect.”

Darren slid out of the car, opening the door for Lina. She stepped out, careful not to let any of them snap a picture underneath her dress. She smiled and waved, but didn’t stop for pictures. Darren cut through the crowd, leading her to the door. 

The bar and room surrounding it was strangely reminiscent of the hall that held the masquerade ball. This time, thankfully, Lina was sure she was not going to puke on anyone. She was sure to stop Darren from grabbing her bag before she stepped closer to the bar. She wanted a Cosmo. 

“Liiiiinaaaaaa,” a singsong voice called from behind her. Gigi appeared at her side, face flushed. She seemed to be a few drinks in already. Lina was excited to catch up. “We’re gonna be sisters-in-law!”

Lina’s eyes widened at that. “My brother is 14, Gi. That’s a little gross.”

Gigi snorted, limply swatting at her shoulder. “I didn’t even know you had a brother, idiot. I mean that I have my eye,” she used two fingers to gesture at her eyes, “on tall, dark, and handsome.” She pointed at Zayn Malik, who chatted with a couple guys across the room. 

Lina laughed, “Oh, do you?” 

“Yes, I do. And you’re gonna get with the other one, right? Then, we’ll be sisters! Metaphorically, anyway.” Lina didn’t bother dismissing Gigi’s suggestion; she just laughed. “C’mon, c’mon!” 

“My drink---” Gigi pulled Lina across the room before she could finish her protest, not too close to Zayn, but near enough that they could see him. They leaned against the corner of a wall, observing. “Do you plan to summon him with your mind?”

“No, no, I’m just waiting for my moment,” Gigi whispered. Lina laughed, glancing around the other corner of the wall. There were a few doors lining the walls, but it was otherwise pretty empty. A gasp had her turning her head back to her friend. “He’s walking this way! Go, go, go!” Gigi pushed Lina around the other side of the wall and followed her. “Wait, wait, you can’t be here! Get in there, just for a minute before I get him to come with me somewhere else.” Lina didn’t have a second to say anything before she was shoved into one of the rooms. 

“We have to stop meeting like this.”

Lina turned around, taking in the room around her, her eyes catching on the pearly urinals. 

Harry was looking at her, paper towel clasped in his hands as he dried them. He laughed at Lina’s widened eyes. 

“Are you planning to keep your head out of the toilet,” he asked, tossing the paper towel into the bin. “The sink too, I supposed.”

Lina groaned turning to brace herself on the cool, wooden door. “I swear, this was not my idea.”

Harry laughed from behind her. “I should hope not.” He made to move towards the door to leave, but Lina whipped around, placing a hand on his chest.

“We can’t leave,” she whispered. 

Harry cocked an eyebrow. “I mean, this isn’t the most sanitary place, and I don’t have a condom but---”

Lina made an ‘ack’ sound before lightly pushing him away from her. “Don’t be weird.” Harry put his hands up in defense. “My friend is out there…with your friend.”

“I’m sure we can come up with a reason other than sex to explain us leaving the bathroom together.”

“Harry, I’m being serious!” Lina said, exasperated. “She pushed me in here because she wants to…talk to your friend.”

“Which friend?”

“Zayn.”

“He doesn’t say much, so that conversation should be over now.” He moved towards the door once again, but Lina grabbed his wrist this time. “She’s pretty drunk, and she’d be pretty pissed if I interrupted her shot. She said she’ll try to get him to go somewhere else as soon as she can.” Harry stifled a laugh. “We can leave soon. Just, I don’t know, be quiet and don’t, like, do anything weird.”

“Me? Do something weird?” he exclaimed, faux defensiveness causing Lina to roll her eyes. “I’m not sure I’m the one to worry about here, woman in the men’s bathroom.”

Lina closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “Not on purpose.”

“Last time, sure it wasn’t,” Harry said lowly. Lina was keenly aware of her grip that remained on Harry’s wrist. “This time…I think you just wanted to get me alone.” He was closer now, breath fanning her face, alcohol and mint filling her nose. 

“I could get you alone in a less…strange way if I wanted to.” Lina couldn’t look at him, so she examined the holes in her tights. 

“Would you, though?” His voice lowered even more. She wasn’t sure how much lower it could get before it was more of a growl. 

Wow, these tights really were artfully ripped. The perfect place for a tear really is just above the knee. She liked her knees, she supposed, but knees were a little weird overall---

“Carolina.”

“Lina.”

“What?”

“I prefer Lina.”

“Alright, Lina. Wanna answer my question?”

Lina’s breath hitched in her throat. She didn’t know what to say. She would not sleep with him tonight, especially not in this bathroom. But that didn’t stop her from thinking about it. She was starting to feel a little warm. 

Harry made to ask her again, but the door banged open, causing the both of them to stumble back and away from one another. Gigi’s eyes widened before she smiled mischievously.

“I am leeeaving, LiLi!”

“I don’t know if that’s a good idea, Gi.” She was maybe a little too drunk to go anywhere with any man. 

“No, no, I don’t mean like that,” she giggled. “Zayn said that if I got some rest tonight, he would see me tomorrow.” Lina was a bit surprised at that. “So! I’m leaving!” 

“Why don’t I go with you? Just to be sure you’re alright,” Lina asked, hopeful it would get her  out of answering anymore questions tonight. 

She felt Harry’s eyes on her as Gigi replied, “Oh, sure. Only…” her eyes flitted between the two of them, “If you want to.”

“It’s no problem, really, honey.” Lina felt a little guilty for leaving like this, but really, she was nervous. She’d had a few flings here and there after her rise to fame, but she never had the time to pursue them further. She was a bit rusty, now.

“Alright!” Gigi turned to leave the bathroom as Lina looked in the opposite direction, towards the man behind her.

“I’ll answer your question after dinner, Styles.”

He smiled a small, amused smile. “It’s a date.”

Mentioned this before but for some reason ballet has very strong Hypnos energy (especially sleeping beauty and swan lake) and tbh I’m not sure why??? Maybe it’s the classical music, or the oftentimes very flowy outfits in a dark theatre with only the stage lit up.

But I’d LOVE to see a Greek myth based ballet, specifically the Chthonic gods. I feel like it’d work so well. Some spooky almost gothic classical music, tutus that resemble flowy god robes, a glowing gloomy set to look like the underworld.

A Hypnos and Thanatos duet that’s almost completely in sync (bc yk, twins). Hypnos in all white and Thanatos in all black. Nyx with a sparkly starry dress and a big flowy cape she can wrap her children in.

I used to dance as a kid, sometimes I want to go back into it if my health wasn’t all over the place. But if I ever had the means to make a whole dance production based on the Greek underworld you bet your ass I would. And I’d have a fucking BLAST with the costumes too.

Can you do Barbie x female!reader where Barbie returns to the real world and falls head over heels for the reader and vice versa?

-Greek myth anon 📜

You first met Barbie for a short time when she's crying outside the school, feeling hurt and anxious for the first time in her life.

You didn't initially know who she was, assuming she was going through a rough breakup.

But while her eccentric pink cowgirl outfit threw you off for a moment, you didn't wanna just leave her alone. You'd feel bad for the rest of the day.

So as a women concerned for a fellow women, you approached her.

"Hey, um..are you alright-?"

"No!" She bawls. "Is this what the Real World's supposed to be like?? Where girls hate you and men objectify you?? None of this makes any sense!! Ever since I got here I started having all these weird emotions and I feel all mushy and....oh no....that's exactly what Weird Barbie warned me about!!"

"Girl, that's all part of the universal.....wait, did you say Barbie?" You blinked.

"Y-Yes..I'm Barbie. Stereotypical Barbie, actually." She sniffles, confused when you sit beside her and offer a tissue/handkerchief. "O-Oh..thank you so much...?"

"[Y/n]." You say as she dries her tears. "You know I used to love those dolls growing up. They've entertained me for hours as a little girl. So...I guess I should thank you for giving me a good childhood, assuming you really are a Barbie."

That's genuinely the nicest thing any human's said to her so far, and you give her a hug to express your support and comfort.

She cries again, but she's happy this time (much to her confusion), and you tell her that humans cry for all kinds of reasons..so it's nothing she should be too worried about.

Sadly the sweet moment doesn't last long as she's whisked away to Mattel in a black SUV, although you hold onto hope that you'll see her again.

And you eventually do in a place you least expected to find her: the gynecologist.

Barbie--now taking on the human name "Barbra"--explains how she left her "dollness" behind, being reasonably nervous, but you reassure her this is a great first step towards embracing both her humanity and womanhood.

After your appointments, you hang out together and exchange phone numbers, keeping in touch and texting back-and-forth.

You end up going on shopping trips together, getting coffee/pastries, getting your nails done, going to small concerts, etc. Just fun little things humans (and women) typically do.

If anyone tries harassing you, you're each other's best defenders.

Barbie's quick to fall head over heels for you now that she truly got to know and spend time with you.

You're funny, kind, protective...and the first person to ever ask if she was okay when she visited the Real World.

When she's not with you, she's gushing over you to Gloria and Sasha (who had to be the ones to tell her that she's in love).

Likewise, you were in love with her too, getting warm and fuzzy feelings just from looking into her eyes and seeing her smiles and radiant optimism.

Eventually you both confessed (at the exact same time), and while it's a little awkward, you're finally a couple and end up moving in together.

You love listen to her ramble about the next exciting thing she just learned about human culture (esp the technology).

"So you're saying this is Alexa and she knows everything????" Barbie points to the device in your kitchen. "And she can play any song???"

"Pretty much, yeah." You chuckle, smiling as she asks Alexa to play "Ain't It Fun" by Paramore.

She starts dancing, and you join in, singing along to the lyrics.

Indeed, she finds it fun living in the Real World with you <3

Blue Ain’t Your Color

Matt x Reader

For @freshloveforthefit

Warnings! Alcohol consumption, alcohol mention, that’s mostly it

masterlist

“You need to get up and do something, y/n.” My best friend, Stella, says to me. “You can’t sulk for the rest of your life.”

My now ex boyfriend, Andy, had broken up with me just a few days ago. I haven’t be able to get out of bed or stop crying since it happened. “I don’t want to.” I mumble into my pillow.

“You’ll feel better soon. Let’s go clubbing! Come on!” Stella pulls me up by my arm. I’m lifted up from the bed and I groan.

“I don’t want to go.” I groan to Stella. Stella goes to my closet and picks out an outfit for me.

“Come on, let’s go drinking. It’ll make you feel better.”

~

The flashing lights and the loud music were doing the opposite of making me feel better. In fact, they gave me a pounding headache that the alcohol just increased. I continually stare at my phone for a text from Andy.

Maybe it’s because I’m not over him, or maybe it’s because I’m drunk, but I found myself typing a message to him.

Me: Heyyyyyyy I mis yiuuu

Me: eanns cpme to bar wi me an stell

No reply. Twenty minutes and no reply. Thirty minutes and no reply. I sigh and lean my head against the bar.

“Blue just isn’t your color.” I hear a voice say. My head lifts up and I see a guy I’ve never met before. He’s tall-ish, with brown hair and pretty blue eyes and a face that looks like it was chiseled by whoever did the statues of Greek gods.

“What?” I ask him.

“Blues just not your color.” He says again. I look down at my outfit, a black tube top and black ripped jean shorts.

“I’m not wearing blue.” I say to him and he laughs.

“It’s all over your face.” He replies.

“Oh…” I say softly, realizing he means my mood.

“What’s got you so down?” He asks as he sits next to me.

“Guy trouble.”

“What kind of guy trouble?”

“My boyfriend just broke up with me and I miss him and I want him here.” I lean my head back on the bar. “He won’t come though.”

“Well he’s a dumbass if he thinks it’s a good idea to break up with a girl like you.”

I lift my head up. “Yeah?”

“Yeah. I’m Matt by the way.” He holds out his hand.

“Y/n.” I say, taking his hand and shaking it. “Wanna drink?”

Matt laughs. “I think you’ve had enough.”

Stella comes up from behind me, jumping and dancing around. “Y/n! Come dance with me!” She shouts over the loud music.

“I gotta go.” I get up from my seat.

“Wait, can I have your number?” Matt asks. I smile and nod.

“Give me your phone.” I say and he does, and I put my number in and hand it back to him.

“Drunk girl from bar?” He says, laughing as he reads my contact name I set for myself.

I laugh and nod. “Drunk girl from bar.” I confirm.

“Y/n come on, I love this song!” Stella says and she pulls me away.

“See you later!” Matt shouts to me.

“See you!” I shout back as I pulled to the empty space designated as the dance floor.

The Ocean at 21:00

After Zaros was crowned and became king, Earis was shunned away. Never to be seen again, after a couple years, the King of Serulla gets an update.

M!Earis, Post-Noble Trials, Semi-Angst(???)

The Noble trials were finished years ago, Zaros has been the king for 6 and a half years. It felt like yesterday that the crown was placed on his blond head, while Earis smiled at him for the last time.

He’s fought battles, went through the hardships of being the new royal family, regretted many of his decisions, had beautiful banquets inviting the common folk and royalty to eat together, all the sorts.

Something he didn’t think about though, is how painful ruling is. The public would yell and shout, and the work would build up until there was sleep-less weeks, with no one there to help him, hell, even listen to him. The only days he’s enjoyed being king, is going on missons.

These missions let him get some fresh air from the responsibilities waiting for him on his desk.

This time, his mission was to go to the kingdom of Lsmena, to provide insight of trading matters..transportation stuff…blah blah blah.

This kingdom was known for its rich history with music and the arts, mostly performance arts near the water. Since the whole kingdom is surrounded by water, having lovely townsfolk, perfect weather, and a amazing range of rare flowery. It somehow felt like a vacation for Zaros, all things considered.

Stepping onto the dock, with 2 guards behind him, his red and black coat flowing behind him akin to a blaze. Walking pridefully, seeing the view of the beachside town.

The kids where playing games, girls in pretty, Greek-style outfits we’re practicing their dances next to the water, the houses were a light brown, and Zaros smiled. Today was going to be a small break, finally.

He walked up the hill, gliding towards the urban area of Lsmena.

Everything was going fine, until he saw a flash of man with long black hair and two large scars on his face standing next to a building, talking to a brown-haired woman with porcelain like skin.

Could.. could that’ve been Earis?

And.. who was that woman?

WHO was that woman?

He zips his head backward, with a bit of a fumbled expression.

No, it couldn’t have been him, they haven’t seen each other in almost 7 years! Maybe, Zaros was just being delusional and missed Earis a bit too much. It was just a couple striding along the Oceanside. Nothing to see there.

They treaded on. It was only a while until him and his guards get on the Carriage they had transport them to the castle.

After hours spent looking at the scenery, they made it to the officials, and they had a meeting. And even more hours were wasted from there.

Tired, Zaros told his guards to get them a decent inn to stay at, and he’ll explore more of the city. The guards obligee, and off he went. For some reason, he felt a nervousness in his heart.

For the most part, he DID just wanna explore and see the flowers, but he was tugged by the nervousness of chance, what if that was Earis?

Shaking his head, he decided to entertain himself by seeing the gardens that the city had to offer.

Walking down yet another hill, the lights were beautiful, highlighting the cool breeze that went along with it, colored in hues of red, yellow, and pink. Some of the residents bowing down to him, realizing who he was, or offering him a drink. He was too tired to care.

Although, his eyes drifted to a couple holding hands, the same man with long black hair, all let down, with that woman again. A rush of alertness rushed into him.

There was a decision that ruler Zaros had to make.

Reveal himself to his old friend, or have him notice Zaros?

His feelings skyrocketed, and he tapped the man on the shoulder.

“I apologize for the hinderance, but you look like someone I knew..”

Before he could finish, the old friend turned to Zaro’s direction. It was him. His scars, pretty lips, dark eyes, and beautiful skin. His hair was down, flowing with the Lsmena air. The woman next to him gave Zaros a puzzled expression.

Earis started to speak, “…Ruler Zaros of Serulla?” With wide eyes and a puzzled expression.

Zaros felt a weight on his heart, he took off his crown to be one to one with his old friend.

“Earis! It has definitely been the wait worthwhile since I’ve last saw you.”

The other man smiled, that didn’t use to happen before.

“Zaros, it is definitely humbling after seeing you, the years do go by, I admit.” Earis calmly said.

Zaros felt lighter, “Alas, what have you been dabbling in? A new place, rich villages?”

For some reason, he forgot all the reasons why the man standing infront of him brought him so much pain, which is the reason being they didn’t banter like they used to.

Earis responded. “None of the sort.” He chuckled. “Here, allow me to introduce you, Ruler of Serulla, my wife. Apollonia!”

Zaros heart dropped.

He felt a unruly feeling in his soul, seeing Earis with someone else. It’s instinct, at this point. He must’ve gotten with her because of her looks.

Apollonia was a woman of great beauty, her gorgeous wavy brown hair with big eyes. Freckles spiked on her face, smooth skin and happy demeanor. What people known her for though, was her personality, her personality was accepting—loving, and always wanted to help someone out. Married to Earis for 4 years now. She used to live in Serulla in her childhood, and she knew Earis on a deep level before moving to her home kingdom.

Zaros thought, as their introductions and conversation grew on, Earis is a coward. That man told him that one day, he’ll come back and they could rule together, that he found himself within Zaros and “there just couldn’t be another,” it was a lie. All of it. Blasphemy.

Being Ruler usually swayed what he says, which is happening right now, but he let a simple sentence slip while staring at Earis.

“Was all of it a lie, my friend..?!”

They all went silent. Zaros realized what he said, and realized the people watching him, his heart started to pound and world felt like it wasn’t any different than it was 7 seven years ago.

It felt automatic, like all the years of sleepless weeks finally caught up to his feelings.

“You run off to this.. island.. and find a lady like HER? You left me alone. Alone to rule! You know that everyone knows that you humiliated yourself by not winning the games, but I have you mercy.. just for one time.. and I am left alone standing. Looking at this!” The blond adult.. adult child, spat. He felt pensive, aggravated, and envious in the worst ways.

Earis stopped. Gripped his wife’s hand harder, and said, very quietly. Very calmly. Like a ballerina on a the stage, or.. akin to the lowest key of the piano.

“Don’t ever talk about my wife. Ever again. She is the love of my life, the woman I’ve known since I could play piano, the woman that helped me through everything, my whole life…

“She’s better than you could’ve ever been. Goodbye, my eminence.”

Apollonia looked at him with worry and they lock arms, looking at him with such a love and affection that it caused Earis to smile. Earis sighed, looked at her and they walked off. His wedding ring blinged in the lights of the city.

It was tense. Awkward.

Dreamy, and the taste of selfishness in the air.

Zaros felt, for the first time, that maybe his Earis was right. Maybe, all he does is ruin things for himself. For everyone. That train of events that just unfolded before that street was selfish and unproper. All because his little heart was broken by the boy he doesn’t know anymore.

It’s almost like, he’s become the thing he swore he would never become.

Thanks for reading! Idk if many ppl will read it because Earis is usually gender-neutral, and he’s male in this story, but whatever y’all wanna imagine hehe

THIS IS HALLOWEEN THIS IS HALLOWEEN!!!

Happy Halloween y’all!! Here’s a fun bonus post to see what the guys are up to!

In Goldenvalley, several farmers pooled together their empty fields to host a MASSIVE Halloween party for ebott! There’s a pumpkin patch, a huge corn maze, farmers market, haunted house, a trunk or treat in the parking lot, and when it’s late, a big after-party for the adults!

Sans: this year he’s going as fools gold. Sans is in a yellow and orange jester outfit and hands out fake gold coins to the kids. He’s a little out out that no one is getting the pun right away.

In spirit of supporting G’s sobriety, the geek squad will not be getting sloshed this Halloween. Unfortunately for every one else, a sober geek squad is a mischievous one. Somehow sans Pluto G and lens have gotten into a prank war with cricket bruiser and cash. Things are gonna get nasty real quick.

Papyrus: he lost a dare with willow earlier in the month, and his older friend/technically brother got to choose his costume. This year papyrus is orange blossom from strawberry shortcake! Ngl, paps thinks orange blossom is the best and he’s really feeling this costume. It also helps that he tricked his best friend into matching with him lol

Papyrus and Star have been stuck in the corn maze for nearly an hour now. They’re certain they’ve found the exit, but they swear the maze is moving somehow. It’s like someone angered the spirit of Halloween!

Star: he doesn’t know how, but paps convinced him to dress as strawberry shortcake. Sure the costume rocks, but Star wanted to do something a bit more adult and manly! People keep cooing at him! He’s a grown *ss monster dangit!

Oh he swears they’ve seen that scarecrow four times now! He and papyrus have been stuck in this murder maze for ages! Star keeps getting the uncomfortable feeling of recognizing something but not quite being able to place his finger on it.

Honey: naturally this nerd needs to be something dnd, so he’s going as his favorite bard character complete with a ukulele to finish the outfit!

Honey was real nervous about such a big festival, but with salt and his dnd crew by his side, he thinks he can brave it. Salt keeps stealing his ukulele thoigh to make dirty lyrics lol

Red: he’s going as doctor bones from Star Trek this year. Reds honestly shocked he hasn’t done a Trekkie outfit yet until now.

Surprising no one, red stuck to oak like glue for the whole Halloween party. His partner was feeling good today and wanted to try and stay up long enough for the after party. So red is playing guard dog making sure nothing gets in the way of oaks plans. He swears he’s already made them dodge at least three pranks. Who keeps leaving them everywhere??

Edge: he made a very handsome Hercules this year. Although edge felt a bit exposed in the toga. Rhythm had insisted though wanting to have matching Greek costumes with buddies and edge has a hard time saying no to his best friend

Edge partied hard this Halloween. After the kids went home, he got on the dance floor and just shredded it with an equally drunk rhythm. He doesn’t remember half the night but is sure it was a good time lol

Mal: naturally of course he was matching with lord and wine. It’s practically tradition at this point. This year they decided on the three fairies from sleeping beauty. Mal of course is the green one. Unfortunately due to lord and wines red eyes, they could never pull it off

Mal did hang with his two besties for most of the holiday, but he must’ve been neglecting his little brother, because at the end of the night mal found himself dragged into a prank war between the geek squad and the trouble makers. Cash was so grateful to have his observant older brother on his side

Cash: he went as a strip of bacon. Yep, bacon. Why? Cause it was 50% at the discount boutique on his street. Sue him, he’s had a busy month and forgot about needing a costume.

Cash naturally finds bruiser and cricket the second he and mal arrive in goldenvalley. And naturally, bruiser the evil… something that he is decides their first prank targets should be the foursome of sans Pluto G and lens. Cash quickly learns one should never prank a squad of geniuses.

Oak: he’s stitch from lilo and stitch this year. Technically his costume is just a onesie. Oak seems to have a lot of those.

Oak is feeling great this Halloween! He made sure to sleep in extra in the morning, have a good breakfast and lunch, and do his stretches that he hates. He’s determined this year to see the afterparty! He manages about 30 minutes into it before deciding every one is crazy and taking red home with him lol

Willow: for once he’s not a chef. Lilac and noir bullied willow into getting an actual costume this year, so he went with jack skellington from nightmare before Christmas! He looks quite handsome~

Willow was banned by his employees from working this Halloween. They’re taking care of the bakery stand, so for once he has to enjoy himself. And he does! Willow noir and lilac spend a good amount of time on the hayride gossiping. Every time someone suggested they’d get off, lilac would whine about his leg, noir about his hips and willow about his back. That shuts them up

Lilac: he’s going as Captain Hook this year, and he replaced his prosthetic with a wooden peg leg to really sell the costume. And a hook of course!

Lilac is having a grand time with noir and willow on the hayride talking sh*t. He loves his jock buddies, but he feels like he’s been neglecting his famine friends lately. Plus Jupiter went running after bruiser again and lilac just doesn’t have the energy for that today.

Rust: he needed a costume with lots of pockets and a way to keep a large gaggle of kids in sight, so rust is going as cruella deville! And he’s equipped with a bunch of spotted kiddie leashes for his “Dalmatians” lol

Rust got talked into joining a parent group with one of his coworkers, and is now with a small handful of other adults and about two dozen kids of various ages. The really young ones get the Dalmatian backpack leashes because frankly, this place is packed. It’s a fun night of trunk or treating with his daycare brats

Noir: he put actual effort into finding a costume this year, so noir is totally decked out in jewelry rocking his cool pharaoh outfit! And the best part? The “gems” are all just painted pebbles from his front yard. Genius. Every one loves them lol

He was not liking the idea of pushing through the crowds and walking everywhere, so noir was the one to suggest hogging one of the hay rides. Best idea of his life

Lord: he’s been dragged into matching with wine and mal once again. They’ve gone with the three fairies from sleeping beauty this year. Lord absolutely refuses to be the pink fairy and mal claimed green, so blue he is. He looks adorable in his dress.

Lord has a fun time in the beginning shopping with mal and wine. They do a good job at keeping people from bumping into him. However mal gets whisked away at some point, and wine decides to stir the pot by joining sans and the geek squad. So what’s poor lord to do? Wait- why’s mutt sneaking around like that?

Mutt: he’s in camouflage this year looking like a marine! In his gun holster is a few baby mice he’s saved from the stomping crowds, and in his backpack is his pet raccoon, freeloader. 

Mutt has had his eye on this tall gentle looking baker skeleton for a while now. Something about the guy draws him in. So naturally he decides to stalk the other monster, or at least that’s the plan until lord is angrily dragging him away. Dammit

Wine: he’s matching with mal and lord again this year as one of the three fairies from sleeping beauty. Wine could never pull off the green one, and lord insisted on blue. But he’s totally fine with that, after all the pink fairy is the superior choice. It’s not his fault his friends don’t see that~

This Halloween party is fun and all, but severely lacking in drama. So wine is internally cheering when cash starts dragging mal away. Oh! And is that sans~ hmm a prank war sounds way more interesting than shopping. He just has to sell mutt out so lord is occupied, then he’s free to cause a bit of chaos himself~

Coffee: he’s Tom nook this Halloween. Coffee loves that landlord raccoon man! Best animal crossing character ever!

someone made a poke stop in the corn maze this year, and slim and coffee are gonna take it over! Except their electronics all bugged out once they got far enough in and now they’re lost! Coffee tried glitching through the corn stupidly and now has a cob stuck through his shoe making the walk much more unpleasant

Snipe: for once he gets to dress up instead of being on guard duty. Not wanting his face out, snipe goes with a simple outfit and a horse mask, easiest bo-Jack horseman costume ever

Snipe is on ace babysitting duty tonight. It’s fine, because he has a plan. Get his brother as sloshed as possible, then ditch and go home early. And if that doesn’t work he snuck in a tranq. Ace may hate him after but he’s taking this job seriously

Bruiser: he’s lightning McQueen this Halloween. Does he look ridiculous? Absolutely. Is he embarrassed? Not one bit. Lightning McQueen is his hero and idol and no one can say otherwise.

Of course the first thing bruise wants to do is prank some people. He’s brought fake snakes, noise machines, fading glitter spray and even a drone decorated to look like a bat lol. And he makes the wise educated decision to prank G first. That will never go wrong.

Butch: butch doesn’t have guard duty this holiday, so he’s rocking a fun costume! He’s going as Beetlejuice! The stripes in the suit remind him fondly of his mafia days lol

Butch decided to tag along with charm and Winnie and check out the haunted house! He thought it was rather mid, but his bestie and the kid tag along were shaking in their boots at the end

Boss: he for once doesn’t have a guard shift so this holiday boss is determined to party hard! And his costume is perfect for that! He wanted something easy to move in, so his outlaw costume is a perfect fit!

Boss of course started the evening by dragging Green away from some stuffy colleagues to show his friend a real good time. And by good time boss means starting a mosh pit on the dance floor with the help of pepper and sugar. Bruiser would be proud

Ace: he’s the queen of hearts from Alice in wonderland this year~ and boy does he look fine in his costume. He even did his makeup to match!

Ace is on a trial run from the royal guard where he no longer needs a “handler” to go to events. Naturally this means snipes paranoid *ss is gonna follow him around the whole time. Ace doesn’t mind though and spends the evening teasing his older brother

Slim: he uses Halloween as an excuse to cosplay. This year is no different with slim rocking a gojo cosplay. He likes the wrap around his eyes. It means he doesn’t need to wear contacts. They make his eyelights itch.

He and coffee planned to take on this poke stop in the corn maze that was advertised. Slims Pokémon go team has been undefeated for nearly six months now and he needs a challenge! However all their devices shut off after they entered the maze, and the corn looks the same no matter where they turn. He’s starting to freak out.

Charm: charm couldn’t be too skimpy this Halloween with Winnie in tow, but he refuses not to have some sort of raunchiness in his costume. So he goes as a maid! Sugar narrowed his eyes at the implications, but charms skirt was long enough so he couldn’t complain lol

Charm is watching winnie this Halloween as a favor for sugar, and cause his niece wants to do the haunted house and knows her dad won’t let her, but her uncle certainly will~ and with butch tagging along, she’s sure she’ll get to see the adult party too! lol tough luck, after midnight charm drives his niece home

Sugar: with no kid in tow this year, sugar can go all out, and he does~ sugar rocks a sexy bunny suit this Halloween. It’s pink of course, the perfect color.

Sugar naturally meets up with pepper first and together they head straight for the adult area of the festival. They’re here to have a good time and maybe bring a few pretty fellows home together~

Sparks: oh this Halloween is gonna be epic! Sparks put a lot of thought into his costume and decided to go with something a bit more refined…. Attack on Titan! Mostly he just wants an excuse to do parkour in the uniform lol

Sparks is spending the day with lush exploring the shops and trunk or treating. Lush is really grateful for his cuter friend’s presence. He would’ve been alone otherwise

Salt: he’s looking quite dashing as Prince Charming from shrek two lol. Salt thinks the character is hilarious. Plus the cherry chapstick joke is a classic.

He’s sticking with honey for the evening. His original plan was sugar and pepper, but those two are in a wild mood and while salt loves a good party, he’s in no mood to get as wrecked as they surely will lol

Lush: he was feeling lazy this month with all the work that’s been piling up, so his costume is pretty last minute. Lush went with borrowing an old costume from sparks and throwing a hoodie on it for a quick and easy Spider-Man.

He’s really grateful his best friend decided to tag along the whole night. The shops are bustling and the music is great! Although it’s depressing that so many kids are scared of him even though he picked a “friendly” costume

Pepper: he’s gorgeous as ever. This year he’s decided to knock everyone’s pants off and be Jessica rabbit from who framed Roger rabbit. Monsters everywhere are drooling over him

Pepper is of course out with sugar. After being joined by a hyped up boss and jittery green, they shred up the dance floor. Peppers hoping to take someone home tonight, and that cute Han Solo has been eyeing him for a while.. if the guy approaches him he might give him a chance~

Sir: he’s dressed as a classic king with a crown, red velvet cloak and lots of gold jewelry. In fact sir picked the theme for the whole brothel. With rumors of pranks planned for the evening, he thought it would help to keep every one close

He spends the night escorting some of his “workers” while they have fun. There’s been a rumor going around about spiked drinks. Not on sirs watch!

Weasel: he’s the fool of the royal court! With a jesters cap and jingly shoes, weasel fits the part perfectly!

Weasel is with snow and pesto and some other brothel “workers” for the festival. They’re supposed to keep an eye out for trouble. Rumors of drugs being snuck in has sir on alert. He’s a bit grumbly about technically being a guard for the evening but weasel wouldn’t dare let his family down

Butler: he’s dressed as a knight in shining armor, complete with a “fake” long sword. The sword is foam, but hidden inside connected to the handle is an actual dagger. Nice

Butler is escorting the third and final group of “workers, with the help of Flambe. Two of them brought their kids, so they plan on leaving early in the evening before the bar stands open

Gold: he’s the beautiful princess of the group! Gold went with a deep purple for his color scheme since lighter colors don’t wash him out enough lol

Gold is with sirs group having the time of his life. Sure he’s supposed to be a watch out too, but every one knows this pampered diva won’t see anything

Flambé: Flambe is the queen of the brothel, dressed in a beautiful navy blue dress and silver jewelry. He’s quite tired as he had a late shift the night before, so he’s happy to be with the group protecting the kids.

Pesto: he’s the executioner of the royal group. Pesto has the hood with the eyeholes over his head and a wicked looking fake axe.

His job is to keep weasel on task mostly, and to help guard his group. However the ladies are quite excited pesto was convinced to come out and are trying to get him to let loose a bit. They think this party will be good for him

G: he’s dressed as Rick from Rick and Morty. Every one agrees this costume is perfect for his arrogant *ss lol

G is already a bit pissy that he won’t be drinking tonight, so when bruiser threw that popping buzzer at him, he welcomed the challenge. Blame G for dragging the geek squad into this prank war

Green: he promised boss that his costume wouldn’t be something completely white this year, and green delivered. He looks quite cute in his penguin butler costume. The black feels a bit dark to him, but hey! It’s not all white!

Poor green was having a good time discussing the latest medical technology with his colleagues when boss dragged him away. Now he’s fighting for his life in a mosh pit. This is what he gets for befriending soldiers 

Lens: he’s simply in a decorated black morph suit dressed as venom. He’s not very intimidating looking with how small he is, but whatever

Lens is pissed that his brother was stupid enough to try and prank G. Now he has to spend all night making sure his best friend doesn’t get hurt in his race for revenge

Cricket: he’s rocking his shadow the hedgehog costume tonight. You can blame cash for it. Cricket had also forgotten to prepare a costume and unwisely trusted his friend to snag him one.

Cricket was going to try and keep bruiser out of trouble until he heard who he wanted to prank first. Cricket never wastes an opportunity to anger lens

Pluto: oh my stars, if you guys could see his costume now you’d loose it. Pluto is adorable dressed as sapphire from Steven universe. The color and fit suits him perfectly

Ok! This prank war is actually a bit fun. Sure it’s tiring running after the trouble makers all night, but every one is laughing. Even lens cracked a smile… well it looked more like an angry grimace but close enough!

Jupiter: he’s with the fire fighters tonight, so Jupiter is in uniform tonight! He sadly lost a raffle for who had to man the party on standby.

Atlas: atlas looks very charming dressed as Han Solo from Star Wars. The best character of course!

Atlas has been popping in between different groups all night, but towards the end of the evening he can’t help but gravitate towards this absolutely gorgeous skeleton dressed as Jessica rabbit. Hopefully he can pull together his courage and talk to the guy

Orion: he has the scream mask and a black robe on. He also has a fake buzzer knife!

Orion is busy this year working in the haunted mansion. It’s a passion project between him and a few other artist friends. He took extra pleasure in scaring the heck out of charm and the kid he was with. Unfortunately that ex mafia guy barely even blinked

Helios: he and Artemis got festive this Halloween and are going as heat and snow miser from “the year without Santa clause”. Obviously Helios is heat miser. It matches his eyelights

Helios is wheeling Artemis around the festival this year. The siblings duo are mostly trick or treating but Helios is hoping to find a cool moon lamp for his room

Artemis: she’s snow miser from “the year without Santa clause”. Artemis even brought fake snow to sprinkle on kids lol. They love it!

She and Helios had the delight to run into a mum with twin babies who are also dressed as heat and snow miser! They of course got pictures with them. The mom insisted

Pop: this year he’s dressed as the cutest little.. pigeon? Pop has a pair of grey wings and a feathery sweater on. He looks ridiculous but you should see the other guy ;)

When pop ran into the corn maze with quill, the first thing he did was knock over a strange looking scarecrow. The thing started screeching about some curse of eternal wandering but he didn’t stick around the listen. He has a maze to explore!

Rhythm: he’s dressed as a satyr from Greek legend! It goes perfectly with edges her uses costume, plus he loves bouncing around

He got so sloshed the second the bars opened. Rhythms busy season of dance recitals with the kids is finally over. He’s ready to RELAX. Or party.

Tempo: he’s DJ for the afterparty dance! So tempo is decked out in a bunch of neon as a raving DJ. He’s working with the band all night

Vibrato: he’s dressed in a neon witch outfit, and he’s working the afterparty providing music for the dance going on!

Quill: he’s dressed as a bag of pop rocks! He looks so goofy waddling around in the boxy bright costume, but he’s not nearly as silly as the other guy ;)

Quill is freaking out. He’s been in this corn maze with pop for ages, and some scarecrow keeps chasing them and screaming about curses. Pop is screaming back at it certainly not helping the situation

Crow: he’s providing security for the band tonight. Crow is dressed in a professional suit with a goofy witch hat. His job is to make sure the crowd doesn’t swarm vibrato and the mettas

Roost: he’s dressed as the caterpillar from Alice in wonderland. The whole vineyard is doing that theme tonight!

Roost is out in the crowd offering taste tests of harpy’s wine. They’re hoping to use the festival as an advertising opportunity 

Harpy: she’s dressed as the mad hatter from Alice and wonderland this year!

Harpy makes a wonderful scene at the wine stand. They’re serving the wine in tea cups to go with the vineyards costume theme this year. It’s a big hit!

Mango: she’s adorable in her fluffy angel costume. But papaya keeps calling her a flamingo. She might kill him

Mango is chilling with Finn for the night. They’re spending most of their time at the lake the venue is next to. They’ve found a group of hadals in the water and are having a grand time playing frisbee with them!

Papaya: he’s a basic b*tch this Halloween as a ghost. Very original. However there’s a twist! Thanks to the strange workings of sails mind, papaya is a ghost wearing fishnet leggings under the sheet.

Papaya is tagging along with sails and Jasper tonight. They entered the haunted mansion, and in their panic and attempt to escape, papayas sheet costume caught on a branch. He refuses to go back for it, so now he looks like a stripper with nothing but fishnet tights and a pair of little black shorts.

Fisher: fisher is hosting a haunted boat ride with some sailors. He’s playing as a siren calling monsters into the water, so he has a wicked seaweed wig and lots of jewelry! It’s super fun!

Jasper: he’s dressed as a monster energy can lol. He thinks he’s so funny for this!

Jasper had the fright of his life in the haunted mansion with sails and papaya. Poor papaya even lost his costume! He and sails are trying to convince the guy to go back in for it

Finn: he’s dressed as Donald Duck this Halloween! He hardly even needed to get much for the costume since he has most of the outfit in his closet already

Finn is so proud of himself for getting mango to socialize with other monsters. It seems like she’s much more open to hadal monsters. He’ll have to take note of that

Sails: he’s looking quite goofy as Patrick star from SpongeBob. And of course he has the fishnet tights to go with. He bought a two pack and gave the other pair to papaya.

Sails thinks he may be having a heart attack after that disastrous haunted mansion run. And crazy Jasper wants to go back for papayas costume? Really???

Hook: he’s helping run a haunted boat ride with some other sailors tonight! Hook is going as a zombie seaman who pops out of the water to spook the riders!

Captain: he’s running a haunted boat ride with his crew and some seashore sailors! Captain is the boat driver, dressed as an old hag!

Silex: he’s dressed as Poseidon with nothing but a trident prop. Sue him, he hates clothes lol

While most of the festival is land locked, the venue is next to a small lake accessible from the underground waterfall chambers. Silex is a bit disappointed at the lack of activities for the hadal monsters but hey, this is better than last year

Pearl: she’s dressed as Ursula from little mermaid. Her friends insisted since her tentacles are perfect for the part!

Pearl is enjoying the smattering of shops near the lake shore, but really she’s spending most of the festival planning for next year. She’s gonna try to make next years big event at Portland

Stitches: he’s going crazy! This year stitches is toy Bonnie from five nights at Freddie’s! Kids are adoring the costume and many adults are cooing over it as well. He’s soaking up the attention like a sponge lol

Stitches is dragging tinker around as they’re matching of course! They’re mostly haunting the craft stalls and exploring the shops tonight

Tinker: he’s dressed as toy chica from five nights at Freddie’s. It’s not really his style but stitches insisted on matching tonight

He really didn’t want to come. Tinker was working on a new large commission, but he can never say no to stitches. He winds up having more fun than expected when he sees a stall selling crochet patterns as well as their creations

Thistle: this year he’s working the covens stand selling color changing potions. The coven is hoping to expand the business above ground, and the Halloween festival is the best place for it. Not wanting his face on display, thistle is wearing a clown mask and colorful costume to match

Yarrow: he’s dressed as slender man lol. Yarrow thinks his figure is perfect for the costume

he’s out and about giving out free samples from the potion stand! He’s in this sort of competition right now with a bird skeleton dressed as a caterpillar . Good times

Gears: he’s dressed as Pinocchio! Gears thinks the fake wooden joints are so fun!

Gears has been tailing peaches and rancher for most of the evening. He’s enjoying catching up with the two as they’re used to house him and compass before their father bought the garden shop! It’s like a family reunion!

Compass: he’s dressed as a tree. Yep, a tree. He has fake apples on his arms too lol

He’s been hanging with peaches and rancher for the evening! Compass missed his pseudo “cousins”. It’s hard visiting when one lives in the city after all

Peaches: he’s the giant peach from James and the giant peach. His whole family is disgusted with the obvious pun lol

Peaches is seriously regretting this costume. He’s waddling every where and knocking stuff over. At some point in the night he gives up and just makes rancher carry him around lol

Rancher: he’s dressed as a giant grizzly bear because bears are strong like him! Also it’s comfy and he ripped his wrestler costume from last year lol

Rancher feels like a pack mule this Halloween when he has to carry peaches, then gears insists on being carried cause the little diva was feeling neglected, then compass was invited so as to not leave him out.

Cider: of course the family is hosting a few bar stalls around the festival. Cider is working the one in the craft stalls. He’s dressed as a scarecrow to match.

Barley: poor barley is being forced to work this party away at one of the bar stalls his family is hosting. As a small act of rebellion, he’s dressed as a hooker this Halloween

Moose: he’s dressed as Oscar the trash man from Sesame Street this year lol. Moose is enjoying the costume

Moose is a kind friend who’s keeping cider company while he runs the bar. Of course the occasional free drink is a bonus too~

Maple: he’s working in the haunted mansion as the chainsaw guy chasing people at the end. Truthfully, he isn’t supposed to be there, but nobody bothered to check if he’s an employee or not lol

Ram: he was sweet enough to take a spot at rosemarys pie stall so peaches and rancher could enjoy the festival. Plus Ram is being paid overtime! He’s dressed as a granny to really sell the look lol

Pitch: he joined ram at the pie stall mostly so he can hide behind it and read lol. Pitch is dressed as a haunted priest with fake blood running down his eye sockets

Zen: no Halloween for this skeleton. Instead zen is at the temple performing the sacrificial ritual for a good fall harvest. They’re offering an assortment of apples and squash to lady magic this year

Shield: he’s dressed in his guard uniform as one of the security detail at the festival. However shield did get to spice things up by adding a cute witch hat on top of his helmet lol

Alden: Al is dressed as Bob Ross! The greatest painter of all time!

Al is taking pictures of everything at the festival it seems. He’s seeing inspiration everywhere of course. No doubt there will be another statue soon after!

Ollivander: Ollie is dressed as professor dumbledor from Harry Potter. But every one keeps calling him Gandalf. It’s quite annoying!

Ollie is with a reluctant saga and a HYPED UP hilda. The energetic sister is dragging around her friends everywhere. Thankfully she gets distracted by arwin and Ollie and saga are able to escape lol

Hilda: she’s working her awesome Spyro costume. It takes a color changing potion every hour though so she definitely won’t be repeating it next year. That craps expensive

Hilda wants to see EVERYTHING this year! She’s dragging Ollie and saga around to each attraction, but looses them by the haunted boat ride. That’s fine though cause she’s met arwin and he’s a real party animal!

Saga: she’s dressed elegantly as an ice queen for Halloween. Saga enjoys the color palate.

Saga wouldve rather stayed at the temple to witness the harvest sacrifice, but Hilda had been begging for years for saga to just go to one Halloween festival. She’s already regretting it lol. Every one here is so undignified

Barin: he’s dressed simply as a Viking for the evening. Barin is feeling a bit shy, so after hanging with arwin for a little bit, he sneaks away for a moment alone. The corn maze seems like a good choice… thankfully for every one stuck in there, when barin tries to leave, he accidentally breaks some sort of curse? He just thought it was a shoddily done rune on this scarecrow so he fixed it up

Arwin: he’s dressed as a sexy pirate! Complete with a fake parrot on his shoulder! Super fun!

Arwin is determined to party hard and make new friends! He’s delighted when he meets hilda. This Drake monster is crazy! They do the haunted boat ride together then shred it on the dance floor when the band comes on!

Silver Bullet

Bucky Barnes x Fem!Reader, Helmut Zemo x Fem!Reader

Word Count: 1,670 Masterlist

Summary: The best night of the year, Halloween, turns into a night you just want to forget. PART 1/4.

Warnings: werewolves, cheating, backstabbing best friend, Zemo is a whore, truly.

Red cloaks filled the crowd. This years Halloween parade theme being Dracula. Rob Zombie blared through speakers anchored to lampposts. You and your friends all wore matching costumes, collectively going as the wives of Dracula. It was a good excuse to wear the hottest outfits you could find. Most people paled their skin with white face paint, and molded little pieces of wax to their teeth.

Not you, you wore basically nothing for your costume. Each friend had a different color of fabric, that was loosely draped and cinched around your body. The best way to describe it would be a Greek toga, instead of linen it’s sheer silk, leaving nothing to the imagination. You all wore the same gold collar, a dragon etched on the front; curtesy of the blue bride, Miranda’s, 3D printer.

You didn’t plan on staying, you all agreed to be a part of the parade, once that was over, you were all headed to Zemo’s annual Halloween masquerade. You don’t think he particularly liked having hundreds of people flooding his property every year. But having the biggest house in town was a blessing and a curse. He hosted most festivities for your rather large population of teens and young adults.

You had a fascination with the bachelor. He inherited the mansion, land and money from his grandfather, skipping over his father completely. His family was prominent in the community, both of his parents having a chair at city hall. They volunteered at the food bank and donated to every shelter. Any sane person would think they deserved the money in a way. So why Zemo?

You made it to the party late, everyone leaving the house for the back yard. Zemo had the trees lighted and a dance floor built, always prepared for a celebration. Your friends ditched you as soon as you all got drinks, saying they were going to find their boyfriends. Leaving you to explore the surrounding woods alone.

You nearly drop your red solo cup when you see Zemo pressing Miranda against a tree, practically swallowing each others faces. Tears of betrayal sting your cheeks. She knew you had a crush on him, and she has a boyfriend anyways. You stalk away in anger, losing the trail but not caring. You found a tree far enough from the party that no one would hear your sobs.

You downed the cup filled halfway with vodka, a drop of orange juice for flavor. It dried your tears quickly, leaving your whole body warm. “Stupid.” You say, standing up and brushing the leaves off your dress. “Stupid for liking Zemo.”. You agreed whole heartedly with that. “Stupid for thinking Miranda was my friend.” That’s what hurt the most.

In the midst of your self hate you failed to notice a looming figure. “You’re not stupid.” You jolt, throwing the plastic cup in the direction of the stranger. “Sorry, you scared me.” You giggle, when you see it’s just a guy from the party wearing a phantom of the opera mask.

“It’s okay.” He reaches down and picks up the liter. “Gotta keep our forests clean.” He waves the red in the air. You give him a dry laugh. Men are scary and being alone in the woods with a stranger was causing every alarm in your brain to siren. But the vodka numbed your sense of fear.

“I should get going.” You say, turning and trying to step around the tree. Before you could, the stranger steps closer. “Should you?” He says deeply. He’s close enough now that you can see his piercing blue eyes behind the mask. They render you speechless, the way the moonlight shone off them, put you in a trance. You shake your head, too focused to verbally answer him.

“See, you’re not so stupid after all.” He teases. You have no reaction. His words didn’t fill you with pride or embarrassment. Your veins filled with the distinct warmth of feeling safe. You don’t know where it came from, your body was irrationally reacting to him. You should be shaking with fear and trying to get back to the party, not calmly standing here waiting for something to happen.

It felt like you were locked inside a body that wasn’t yours. It was being controlled by some outside force. You let him reach for you, never flinching away. Your body produced goosebumps where his fingertips grazed your skin. “You’re so beautiful. I’d hate to ruin that.” You nod your head, not even thinking of a single way he could ruin your beauty. Your mind was blank, you couldn’t even say thank you.

“Promise me you won’t resist, once it happens.” You knew nothing of what he spoke, but again you feel your neck bow to him, nodding in agreement. The masked man looks up at the moon, reveling in its fullness. “Are you prepared for no return?” You agree with a nod, now you know you were fully possessed by something. His words should send you running, but a small voice in the back of your head says you would never.

He steps closer again, grabbing fistfuls of your gown, cinched at your waist. “You have to say it. Say I have permission.” His voice was desperate and darker than before. You try to find the words but the influence he had on you was slowly fading, the way he started pressing you against the tree brought you back to your senses. He holds your hips in place as he nuzzles his face into your neck, taking a long deep breath.

The stubble on his chin tickled you and you had to remind yourself yet again that this is a masked stranger in the woods. Even though your senses were coming back, the way his hands lit a fire inside of you was enough to make you not care. That fire pooled lower and lower the closer he got to you. He smelled like a mix of musk and pine. You couldn’t tell if it was him or the trees surrounding you. But it made your mouth water, filling you with a want to taste his skin, just to be sure.

He raises his hand to cradle your cheek, “Please.”. He caught your eyes again, boring into them with an assured look. He focuses on your lips “Just say the words.”.

“I give you permission.” You say them without thinking of the consequences. He sealed your fate by closing the gap between your faces. Pressing his lips to yours. You moved your lips in sync with his, using your free will to wrap your arms around his neck. Before it could go any further the man disappeared. You felt him pull away, when your eyes opened to see why, he was already gone. You searched the surrounding woods with your eyes, there was no sign of him.

You grab your head, wondering if you drunkenly hallucinated. The moisture on your mouth and in your underwear was foolproof evidence that it really just happened. But you still began to question its validity.

You hear a twig snap somewhere near you, in hopes that it was the magnetic stranger you followed it, rounding an old fallen tree you spot a black dog. It was rather large in stature, must be a purebred if it’s that big. You knew an expensive dog wouldn’t be wandering the woods collarless. And you couldn’t remember if Zemo ever mentioned having any pets.

You stepped closer, never fearing animals. You loved dogs, you had a few of your own at your parents house. “Here boy.” You kneel down, reaching out your hand. It finally gives you its attention. Immediately showing his sharp canines, snarling loudly. “Oop.” You stand up and slowly back away, knowing the signs of an agitated dog.

When your view of it is blocked by the tree you turn around and sprint away. Not wanting to receive a rabies shot on Halloween night. You see the lighted trees nearing. That’s when you heard it, rhythmic thumbing coming from behind you. When you turn around you let out a scream, the dog is already pouncing on you, knocking you to the ground. You tray to scramble away. You see people’s feet running towards your screams.

The dog latches its mouth onto your leg, when you try to rip it away it only sinks its teeth deeper. You see Zemo come to your aid with a pool cleaner net, swinging it at the dog. “Get away.” He shouts, he ends up cracking the dog on top of his head with the plastic pole. It yelped, causing your leg to fall out of his mouth. He ran for cover, disappearing into the woods. Zemo drops to his knees beside you, shedding his jacket to wrap it around your bleeding leg.

“Are you okay?” Your eyes full with tears, embarrassment was an understatement. You didn’t want to face Zemo or Miranda. You didn’t want to see all the party goers pity filled faces either. You stood up, sucking a breath between your teeth at the pain. You limped past everyone giving eachother confused glances. Ignoring Zemo and Miranda’s fake concern.

You called your dad, sitting on the curb infront of the house. He rushed you to urgent care, spending the rest of the night with you in the waiting room. You were fine in the morning, a shot and a round of antibiotics set you on your way to recovering. You took ibuprofen for the pain. You called off of work for the rest of the week, needing to stay off your feet.

When you returned the next Monday, your boss told you there was a new bus boy. You waited tables all day before you finally saw him. Clocking in and disappearing to wash dishes. He was cute, dark brown hair and light stubble. He didn’t introduce himself to you or Mary, the other waitress, odd. But you had a feeling the little diner would grow on him eventually.

Cytherea (My UTMV OC) Art!

I’m going to write some things about Cytherea! She is my UTMV OC! I have posted her backstory in my blog if you want to check it out! (P.s) she has other outfits and this is just a concept of one!

Here’s some basic info:

Cytherea has multiple names! She has no official name since she doesn’t go by her dead name and has multiple names throughout her life. However, everyone just calls her Cytherea.

Cytherea is half Native American, quarter Greek, and quarter Scottish. Her original parents were Native American, however due to her being born from spirits of them, she was formed by hand, so when she was taken in by her adoptive parents after being brought to them so she could be taken care of properly, she inherited the Greek and Scottish in the adoptive parents.

She is Asexual, Pansexual, and a Demi Girl! Me and her share the same sexualities and gender since I wanted to represent my sexuality and gender through a character I made.

She is an artist and likes to make art! She also enjoys music, dancing, reading, learning, and writing stories.

Her personality is quite difficult to explain. She is a kind and motherly person who has strong levels of sympathy, however she is stubborn and can be very sensitive at times. She is kind to everyone and tries to find understanding in others to bond with them. She tries to keep her negative emotions hidden and away from others since she is terrified of accidentally harming someone.

Her physical appearance: She has paler skin for a medical reason I will list below. She has freckles and scars across her skin, the scars from many different things. She has dusty lavender colored eyes and brunette hair with flowers in it. She has Angel fang piercings and ear piercings and a round body type that’s chubby as her body type. She has two tattoos, a ankh representing a loved one on her hip and flowers that look like they are one with her body on her shoulder. She has a Greek nose as well. She is 5,4.

Some emotional/trauma/issues Cytherea has. (Tw: abusive parents, manipulation referenced)

Cytherea is a paradox in the UTMV. She basically exists despite it being impossible for her to exist. Since she technically was from another entire chain of multiverses and the creator originally put them in that chain of multiverses, then it means that since the creator didn’t write them originally in the Undertale multiverses then it would be impossible for them to exist in there. But Cytherea broke the laws of reality out of sheer determination if that makes sense! But she realizes that everyone has been made from something and that certain scenarios were created by creators and not all of them were natural. But she is uneasy around the idea of viewing everyone as characters, so she tries to ignore the creators and pretend like she is unaware of the creators.

She has issues with trusting to easy. Since her adoptive parents weren’t good people and treated her poorly, she trusts too easily when she feels loved and appreciated since she never gotten that feeling from her caretakers. It makes here very easy to control with beings like Nightmare.

She has BPD, Autism, and Anxiety. She has been mentally ill for a long time and is always trying her best to improve her mental health.

Whenever she formed and fused with the forgotten soul, the forgotten soul became apart of her, which made her soul have traits of the forgotten soul, which included integrity.

The flowers in her hair are apart of her body. She controls them and they sometimes even purr and hiss! They shoot poison at enemies.

Cytherea has a blood issue/condition which causes toxins to be inside her blood stream, which is kinda like venom or poison that are dangerous to others. This condition affects her abilities to do physical things like exercise or training like others (makes her slower or less active due to energy preserving) and her energy levels being extremely unstable. She has to take a treatment to remove the toxins in her blood every once in a while and has to rest for a bit at certain points of the day because of it.

If anyone has any questions about Cytherea send me a question in my asks box! I’ll either answer in my own perspective or of how Cytherea would answer, like me roleplaying as her! Thank you all for all the support!

(CYTHEREA BELONGS TO ME)
