sleep deprivation 200 mph gaming had me acting most unwise last night
This was not from last night but it proves that I am not to be trusted. Liar. ⬇️
Tumblr media
Authors note: the tags of this post were written at around 4 AM but in my wisest judgment I did not post but upon review it’s not as bad as I thought. You are once again saved by my inability to put thought into words.
Hey staff new feature idea where you can set a ‘no post’ timezone and anything you do just gets saved to drafts instead
*Staff proceeds to add a $20 set of tumblr exclusive emojis that completely break the tagging system* <- prediction
#The twitch chat in my mind: mods ban that guy now (that guy is me)#Reading my tags. What happened. Was that real. It’s ok I am normal now#fear not I don’t actually have room in my mind for more brainrot rn. this is a temporary illness#I can tell when it’s long term and when it’s not#original 4 am tags begin#But to be fair.

Okay on the topic of crack treated seriously crossover isekai with mdzs, I've been batting about the daycare attendant from fnaf getting reborn into... Someone.
My first thought was obviously wwx, cuz main character, excellent wild card. I considered lxc, all smiley with a heavy heart and too much responsibility trying to care for everyone even as it ruins him. I considered NHS or jgy for that manic rodent customer service energy, I considered xy for his demonic cultivation and intensity, even jyl if you really wanted to lean into the crack energy, and also Moon snapping would be Excellent crouching tiger energy.
I also considered jc.
The thing about the robot DA, if you don't know,
Half is Sun, a frustrated, overworked, sarcastic mf dealing with his alter ai going insane and trying to kill/kidnap the kids they protect. He's anxiety riddled, pithy to adults, a bit of a control freak trying to scrabble together a semblance of balance in a steadily collapsing situation while trying to maintain himself while being terminally neglected. His sanity is hanging by a thread.
Its alternate, Moon, appears whenever it's naptime - ie, when the lights go out. Moon is an uncanny security guard of the pizza plex (imagine a giant themed mall slash party venue that fails basically every osha compliance) that acrobatically hunts down anything that moves when the other animatronics (basically tortured androids let's be real) are in recharge. Moon is corrupted by a semi computer semi haunted magic virus that makes him evil. Sun is left the responsibility of keeping it locked up in his head by never, ever, resting, or by being in the dark.
By the end of the games, sun and moon, the DA, is a shell of his former self. Despite being a multi million investment as a highly marketed, one of a kind animatronic with a worryingly lifelike ai (or two), the DA is abandoned by its creators and left to rot in the slowly crumbling ruins of the daycare, along with the half destroyed and monstrous forms of its fellow animatronics who aimlessly, sightlessly roam the halls. Sun is huddled in the last beam of light from a jacked generator, and when that finally dies moon is reduced to little more than a manmade beast in the dark as they too slowly run out of power, their powerful battery long stolen and grafted into someone else. Their kingdom boarded up and half destroyed, their own private apocalypse they cannot escape, the DA begs the next person he sees for a total reboot. The combined personality, eclipse, is a gentle and naive thing unable to perceive the reality of its situation. Until it runs out of power, it will be placid and calm, lost in its illusion of the past. It is, essentially, requested euthanasia. It's the kindest send off anything else in the pizza plex gets.
So, a snarky, bitchy guy with huge abandonment issues sick of trying to corral unruly kids without reward, constantly overlooked and frankly neglected in favour of the more successful and popular siblings, with deep rooted trauma about losing his core, too much responsibility and no support, desperately trying to keep himself from lashing out and causing irreparable damage and kinda failing? Who just wants to play stupid games and stop having to shoulder everything himself? Fiercely protective of children but also not immune to pettiness?
Yeah, at that point it's not even a question. Let's give jc an identity disorder and a crippling fear of water.

I don't know I'm not done talking about it. It's insane that I can't just uninstall Edge or Copilot. That websites require my phone number to sign up. That people share their contacts to find their friends on social media.
I wouldn't use an adblocker if ads were just banners on the side funding a website I enjoy using and want to support. Ads pop up invasively and fill my whole screen, I misclick and get warped away to another page just for trying to read an article or get a recipe.
Every app shouldn't be like every other app. Instagram didn't need reels and a shop. TikTok doesn't need a store. Instagram doesn't need to be connected to Facebook. I don't want my apps to do everything, I want a hub for a specific thing, and I'll go to that place accordingly.
I love discord, but so much information gets lost to it. I don't want to join to view things. I want to lurk on forums. I want to be a user who can log in and join a conversation by replying to a thread, even if that conversation was two days ago. I know discord has threads, it's not the same. I don't want to have to verify my account with a phone number. I understand safety and digital concerns, but I'm concerned about information like that with leaks everywhere, even with password managers.
I shouldn't have to pay subscriptions to use services and get locked out of old versions. My old disk copy of photoshop should work. I should want to upgrade eventually because I like photoshop and supporting the business. Adobe is a whole other can of worms here.
Streaming is so splintered across everything. Shows release so fast. Things don't get physical releases. I can't stream a movie I own digitally to friends because the share-screen blocks it, even though I own two digital copies, even though I own a physical copy.
I have an iPod, and I had to install a third party OS to easily put my music on it without having to tangle with iTunes. Spotify bricked hardware I purchased because they were unwillingly to upkeep it. They don't pay their artists. iTunes isn't even iTunes anymore and Apple struggles to upkeep it.
My TV shows me ads on the home screen. My dad lost access to eBook he purchased because they were digital and got revoked by the company distributing them. Hitman 1-3 only runs online most of the time. Flash died and is staying alive because people love it and made efforts to keep it up.
I have to click "not now" and can't click "no". I don't just get emails, they want to text me to purchase things online too. My windows start search bar searches online, not just my computer. Everything is blindly called an app now. Everything wants me to upload to the cloud. These are good tools! But why am I forced to use them! Why am I not allowed to own or control them?
No more!!!!! I love my iPod with so much storage and FLAC files. I love having all my fics on my harddrive. I love having USBs and backups. I love running scripts to gut suck stuff out of my Windows computer I don't want that spies on me. I love having forums. I love sending letters. I love neocities and webpages and webrings. I will not be scanning QR codes. Please hand me a physical menu. If I didn't need a smartphone for work I'd get a "dumb" phone so fast. I want things to have buttons. I want to use a mouse. I want replaceable batteries. I want the right to repair. I grew up online and I won't forget how it was!

I’ve heard a lot about dv6000s (what Adam is) overheating/breaking easily which is SO funny to me because I got him as a hand-me-down and played multiplayer minecraft while watching youtube on him for YEARS and the only thing I’ve ever had issues with is his battery breaks every couple years and I have to replace it

atsumu who still uses his iphone xr despite the brand released the 16 recently.
atsumu who said that he didnt need to upgrade it yet, even though the phone is probably gonna explode soon with how easy it overheats. heck, even osamu uses the 15 pro max, so it makes you question why a professional athlete like him—who probably has their pocket bagged as hell refused to put that 5 years old phone to rest.
however, atsumu thinks the xr has a lot of sentimental values. he remembers the time he first bought the phone, and you both were unboxing it together. you'd always ask to use his phone's camera to take photos all the time when you're on dates. the times where you both would snuggle up against each other watching tiktoks on his phone at night. and the amount of calls you both had made. the phone has always been there throughout your relationship over the years. he thinks its too precious.
but it didnt help the fact that his battery died that night, and the phone never switches on again. so the next day he came home, white bag with the famous bitten apple logo while you just laugh recalling how devastated he was last night.
rinny's note: sorry for the inactivity. i ended my first semester and finally got the time to write again.

We need better marriage candidate advantages! Gifts, dinners, and occasional chores on the farm are nice, but....
Shane - starts taking care of the chickens and you get more eggs (double or triple from one chicken) or an extra chicken every year. Plus discounts at Marnie's. Oh and give me a room for Jas on the farm!!! Also he starts working at Pierre's after Joja closes and leads weekly AA meetings at the community center. Marnie also visits occasionally and brings gifts. Wanders into the forest sometimes and brings back forage.
Abigail - discounts at Pierre's, shopping on Wednesdays, and she goes adventuring with you in the mines (for some rare drops). Discounts at the Adventurer's Guild after she becomes a full-fledged member. Her parents visit on the farm and you get occasional gifts from them. Breaks up rocks on the farm (actual rocks in your inventory and occsisonal geodes).
Harvey - discounts at the clinic for the amount of times you're injured in the mines and he is the one who finds you and carries you home so you don't lose any items. Weekly energy tonics. And sometimes he plays jazz (Unlocks new music). Discounts at the bookseller (1.6) because he befriends the hot air balloon operator. And the man gets over his fear of heights and gets his chopper license. Can take you to Ginger Island for free.
Maru - weekly energy tonics since she works in the Clinic (yes, she should keep her job) and battery packs, plus her dad visits the farm cave and you get better drops in there. Robin visits too and says things like "oh, I saw such and such needed upgraded or repaired, so I did it. " Seb visits and might bring a gift. She also creates a working robot that can automate some farm chores at random. Joins the aerobics class at Caroline's.
Sebastian - discounts from Robin for upgrades and her shop, he occasionally goes adventuring with you in the quarry (for rare drops), and brings in a side income from his incredibly popular indie computer game. Brings gifts from his trips to Zuzu City. Hosts weekly jam sessions with Abigail and Sam on the farm. Organizes DnD game night at the community center - friendly to beginner's.
Leah - chops wood for you (actual wood in your inventory), crafts beautiful decor for your farm, and brings you delicious forage from the forest. Brings in a small income from her artistry. And she would also adventure with you in the secret woods (rare drops and better protection). Might buy you a drink or salad at the Saloon on occasion. Would absolutely dance with you at the Stardrop on Friday nights if you asked her.
Alex - Builds a ramp for George and then his grandparents occasionally visit the farm, bearing gifts. He chops wood and breaks up stone on the farm (actual wood/stone in your inventory). And let's start a food truck. Sells at his stand year round (and more than just ice cream), bringing in a small monthly income. He would be an excellent ally also on difficult adventuring levels (preventing you from getting surrounded). If you do go down, he's carrying you home so that you don't lose any items. Runs bingo at community center for the older townies (including his grandparents). Finally fixed the damn leak in Evelyn's roof.
Elliott - let's upgrade his beach cabin for a vacation getaway! He brings you home from the library with all sorts of useful knowledge. The man brings in an income selling his stories and poetry. Establishes a regular reading event at the library. Teaches writing classes at the Community Center. Discounts at Willy's (Willy is Elliott's great uncle in my headcanon). He would occasionally adventure with you on Ginger Island. Oh and I think you'd adopt Leo together and build a little treehouse on the farm.
Sam - income from Joja (or the movie theater), builds a skate park for the kids on town (a new post marriage heart event), and travels occasionally with his band (bringing in a sporadic income). Oh and he writes new songs for the jukebox at the Saloon. (Unlocks new music). Probably plays for the locals on Friday nights. Vincent would come stay with you on the farm, on occasion, so he would have a room. Plus Jodi would bring you dinners on Sundays. Kent would send you regular gifts in the mail. Also unlimited free games at the arcade (Sam's always buying).
Haley - has a photography show (like Leah does with her art) and decorates your farmhouse with occasional prints (new decor), plus an income from selling her services as a photographer. I like to think she works with Seb on the town website and adds her images. Brings gifts from her trips to Zuzu City. Scythes grass on occasion on the farm (actual grass and sometimes mixed seeds in your inventory). Would plant flowers in a farm garden with Evelyn. Emily would visit and bring gifts.
Emily - discounts at the Saloon, a small weekly stipend, and sells her clothes online, plus you get to join the weekly aerobics class at Caroline's with her (and if you have high hearts with Clint, you get discounts at the blacksmith too). Sometimes misc clothing, shoe, hat, and ring upgrades show up in your inventory. Haley would visit and bring gifts.
Penny - special events at the community center (she helps establish family-friendly activities and the community center is more active). She goes back to school for her official license and brings in a small income from teaching. Discounts on bus rides thanks to her mom, or cheaper bus repair if you aren't done yet. Better rewards at the library/museum when you donate items because of her friendship with Gunther. And she creates a playroom at the farm for Jas and Vincent (and your kids, of course). Pam might visit on occasion and bring gifts (and like Shane, Pam would attend the weekly AA meetings).
Okay... confession time... who are you marrying based on the above advantages?

Hello! Would it be okay to request Dad!Sebastian and Young!Reader?
Reader is a juvenile expendable who’s doing their best to survive (and one day leave) the Hadal Blacksite. Sebastian doesn’t outright say it, but through the little things he does for you, it shows that he cares and is actually really worried about your well-being—he’s quick to brush it off or deny it when you confront him.
He’s quick to swoop you up in whatever room you’re in when you start to get sleepy, he gives you little freebies behind other Expendables’ backs and phrases it as “it’s broken anyway, I’m just throwing away scraps” but it’s in REALLY good condition, wordlessly hands you wall dweller chunk when you enter his shop, stuff like that.
He’s also really pissed off that Urbanshade would allow someone this young to risk their life, even if Reader is like, a year away from legal age.
Just protective Dad!Sebastian who denies it at first but slowly admits to caring for you
The first time Sebastian meets you is when you met your first death to the Angler--as most expendables did.
And the first thing he immediately realizes is how young you are.
From across the table, he could see you in the baggy prisoner uniform, the PDG looking awfully heavy on your back.
Before he even explains how your deaths reveal more information on the entity that killed you, how you'll eventually meet him further in the blacksite, etc....he asks how old you are.
When you nervously tell him you're 14-15 years old, he doesn't know what to say.
A teenager, a literal child...was incarcerated and subjected to Urbanshade's cruelty.
You ended up being with the wrong crowd and got in trouble with the law over a misdemeanor, and yet...you're being punished on the same level as the many older and sicker criminal scumbags.
If anyone deserved to be suffering down here, it should be them. Not you.
"Kid, do you even know what you signed up for?"
"...yes. If I find this crystal, I'll get my freedom. That's what they told me. I-I didn't know about the monsters, though."
"Yeah, they don't mention that in the description 'cause it deters people from signing up. But I can help you with that part."
And thus begins the introverted fishman unofficially adopting you as his kid.
In many ways, you remind Sebastian of his siblings, so he gets to sorta relive that through taking care of you and ensuring you don't die as frequently as the other expendables.
He never says it, but he lowkey spoils you.
He'll pawn off "faulty" equipment to you, claiming he's getting rid of "useless scrap", but they all turn out to be in perfect condition.
You could get fully charged light sources with battery packs attached in one run, discounts on medkits in the next, and even the "upgraded" gummylight (the one used in the Raveyard expedition) that stays lit for longer.
If you get tired of running from the anglers or need to close your eyes after meeting Eyefestation, he'll let you rest in his shop for some time.
Ever complained of hunger even a little? Next time you walk into his shop, he conveniently has some wall dweller chunks available.
You wonder why he's so nice to you compared to all the other monsters...but he acts like he doesn't know what you're talking about, always having some excuse.
"Look, that wall dweller flesh would've gone bad in the next few hours. Can't let the only food you guys are willing to eat go to waste."
"What? No, I totally didn't go out of my way to get the better gummylight for you. One of the idiot leaders of the rave expedition left theirs unattended."
In the end, you learn to just accept his kind gestures and nothing more, relieved that he's looking out for your well-being.
It's also his way of coping with the injustice of Urbanshade putting you through all of these horrors on your own.
If he could do something to alleviate your stress and anxiety...why not?

Uh oh! Looks like you found a Ghost!! 👻
This is my new DCA OC Ghost (they/he) that I mentioned a little bit ago! (This is my first doodle of them, so I may tweak them a little bit in the future, but for now this is They!!)
They're an older dual AI DCA model (one of the first produced in the DCA line) that was put into storage after a few years of use! They were slated to be upgraded but never were. Unfortunately the technician didn't properly shut them down before they were put into a box either, only doing a timed sleep mode instead of a full shutdown, so eventually they woke up hours later.
They spent quite some time in the box. In the dark.
Eventually they broke out because of their low battery (and fear of shutting down 'permanently'), and found themselves in a large warehouse, alone.
They stayed there for a very long time. Hiding and waiting. They've degraded over time due to lack of maintenance so they're functioning, but not well, and covered in grime and dust. Their light sensor no longer works so they're able to switch out whenever. (Since they're an early model, they don't have the 'Eclipse' function.)
This Sun and Moon love each other romantically and have a complex identity. Considering themselves partially as one person and also separately. They refer to themselves as 'I' but also 'we'. They prefer to be addressed by the singular name Ghost for both of them no matter the 'mode' their in.
The Sun hasn't handled any of this well, going from a happy Daycare Attendant to being shoved into storage and then the prolonged seclusion, its taken a heavy toll on him mentally. He's afraid to switch out unless it's deemed 'safe' by him and Moon has checked the area thoroughly. He's a ball of anxiety, prone to panic attacks, and when cornered would not be above harming whoever cornered him to get away. (Almost feral like.)
The Moon is the one that fronts the majority of the time and is very protective of his Sun, also willing to do whatever needs to be done in order to protect him or calm him down.
Both have become very good at hiding and leaving almost no traces of ever being there, unless you know where to look and what signs to look for. Which is why they've gotten away with hiding in the warehouse for so many years undetected.

playing more fnaf security breach! took Freddy to parts and services and my favorite jester was right there to say hello <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
isn't he adorable?
next part was the basement levels with all the endos but I was more interested in all the Moon stuff that was there! plushies, posters, the tvs advertising moondrops. I think there was a theory that this was meant to be a boss battle with Moon where we took his battery to upgrade Freddy, it could be true? all these tunels and basements screams Moondrop
Tumblr media Tumblr media
lets ignore the endo that was coming for me and focus on the little stars and the Moon plushie creeping on Freddy and Chika :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this hallway is so so pretty, surely there is nothing waiting to kill me at the end of it-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
damn it...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
there are so much Moondrop things in here, I'd live in these tunnels happily for the rest of my life
Tumblr media Tumblr media
last room before an army of endos chased me and had to run for my life lol
I hope I find more DCA thingies during the rest of the game!
in the meantime...
GET STUCK IDIOT!

Broken- Rafe Cameron x Toxic!Reader
I wanted to try and write a toxic reader fic but idk i might redo it
-
Rafe Cameron knows what it's like to be broken.
He knows what it feels like to always be hurting, and yet also be the villain, that's why he stays.
Rafe had gone out without you and his phone died, so he had no way to contact you halfway through his night out. He should've found a way to charge it or even started making his way home, all of this would've been avoided, he's beating himself up for letting this happen. He knows how worried you get about him and when his location stops updating and your calls go to voicemail what else can you do other than assume the worst.
He got home so late and you stayed up, unable to sleep with thousands of thoughts running through your head, you were drained. The exhaustion you feel is quickly replaced with anger as Rafe tries to quietly enter, stumbling over himself, phone in hand. He sobers up completely as soon as he makes eye contact with your fired glare.
"Hey baby" he speaks timidly as he leans down to kiss you, but as an instant reaction you put your hands on his chest and all of your weight into them, shoving him away from you and making him stumble backwards a bit. "Don't hey baby me asshole, where the fuck were you?"
"I went out with Kelce and Top, remember baby you said I could" he tries desperately to remind you of the conversation that happened prior, anything to try and prolong the explosion that he knows is bound to happen.
"I said you could go out with them not cheat on me, like what the fuck?" You whine, fighting back tears and quickly letting your anger blend into sadness.
"Baby please, it's not like that" he approaches you again with caution, holding your hands in his until you drop them down, crossing your arms instead.
You wipe your eyes and abruptly stop whining, exchanging it for a glare. "I don't believe you, your location is off and I called your phone a thousand times"
"My phone died I-" you lunge forward and snatch his phone
"If it powers on rafe I swear to god i'll fucking kill you" You scream at him, fumbling with his phone, hands trembling with anger. He chews on his lip in anticipation as you hold the power button. The phone powers on and you don't even wait to see the battery percentage at three percent, or wait to see it almost immediately shut itself back off, you just react. You throw his phone as hard as you can towards him, but he dodges it, making the phone spike the ground. he knows it's broken without even looking at it, but he doesn't care. He doesn't care because you breakdown in front of him crying. You're crying because your constantly convinced and scared he's cheating on you, crying because you feel guilty about breaking his phone, and maybe even crying a little bit because its how you manipulate him, he's a sucker for your tears after all. "Do you want to break up with me?" you cry at him.
He rushes to your side, holding your head in his hands and wiping your tears softly, "No baby, of course not. I love you so much. I'm sorry I should've just came home so you wouldn't have had to worry." It's 2am and his phone is on the ground shattered, his body still holds the weight of the harsh slaps and pushes, yet he holds you as you cry.
You nod, agreeing with him. "You love me?" you ask pouting up at him.
"I do. I won't ever let my phone die again I'm sorry" he promises like he always does, always making and trying to upkeep the most outlandish promises if it meant making you happy.
You flash him a sweet smile and pull him into a hug that he quickly reciprocates. "It's okay Rafey, I forgive you. Im sorry about your phone"
He pulls back, smiling down at you, relieved that you’re back to your normal self again. "Don't be princess, I'll buy another, get you an upgrade too huh?"

Warning: Chapter 6 spoilers? Vaguely??
Idia Shroud
A hermit that claims to be a game developer! He’s not lying but he has omitted some details about his family business that he’s been working with remotely.
Owns a house that he lives in with his little brother Ortho who does all the grocery shopping!
Created Ortho after a terrible tragedy with the help of a mage (not the local one).
Would never willingly take part in the town festivals but Ortho hides all the food in the house on those days so he has no choice but to eat the festival food if he doesn’t want to starve…
Plays board games with Azul every Monday in his house.
Is often found in his room… And sometimes by the lake late at night (Ortho kicks him out to get fresh air).
Loved Gifts: Pomegranate, Any Candy, Battery Pack, Dwarf Gadget, Iridium Bar. Universal Loves
“!! T-thanks, you’re not bad, farmer.”
For Battery Pack and Iridium Bar: “Huh, I needed these for some of Ortho’s new upgrades… Thanks farmer.”
Hated Gifts: Sashimi, Any Fish, Universal Hates
“...Normies like you are the reason why I stay inside.”
Ortho Shroud
The resident sunshine child and Idia’s little brother!
He’s a robot that doesn’t require food to survive but with the power of the world wide web, he can do anything in the world!
He has a lot of healing equipment installed in him so he kinda turned into the town’s informal doctor by default! Is usually the one who treats you whenever you pass out in the mines.
He has a bunch of different gears but the most commonly seen ones are for each season and beach wear.
Absolutely obliterates the competition at every egg festival (Floyd is so mad about it). The hunt is like 10x harder for you in this universe particularly all because of him.
Joins Vil in the library every Thursday for film appreciation! He takes part in the plays along with the other children! 
Doesn’t attend school the way the other kids do but he does sit in and gives his own lectures every once in a while.
Is often found at his house or in the town square chatting with the other kids and residents!
Loved Gifts: Battery Pack, Dwarf Gadget, Iridium Bar, Radioactive Bar, Universal Loves
“Thank you, farmer! This will be useful for data collection!”
Hated Gifts: Bombs, Poisonous Mushrooms, Universal Hates
“My sensors say that this is a highly dangerous object! Activating Energy Cannon!

Cupcakes and Rainstorms
Tumblr media
Rafe Cameron x Pogue!Reader
Warnings - fluff, enemies to something, kissing. Rafe has a crush.
Getting stuck on the side of the road in a rainstorm has an unexpected outcome
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The sudden downpour came out of nowhere. The joys of summer rainstorms. One minute, the sun is shining, and then suddenly, the sky becomes dark and grey.
It was just your luck that the heavens opened while you were making a delivery to the Figure Eight. You father's beat up, bakery van was never good in the rain.
The white van with a smiling cupcake tended not have the ability to break in the rain. You begged your father to upgrade it as the business grew but he insisted it worked perfectly fine. The rusted, cupcake smiling, piece of shit.
Sure, it had memories from the days when the bakery first opened but it wasn't worth your life. You should have just biked the five dozen white cupcakes to the obnoxious white themed party.
What 14 year old held a white themed party, anyway?
You had pulled over to check the directions and got stuck in a muddy puddle, which was more like a bog with a stupid little white dress on. No way could you risk trying to push the fucking, heap of junk in the rain.
You had phoned JJ for help but had no luck and it wasn't worth trying the others. If JJ didn't pick up, the others wouldn't. Whatever shit he was getting up to, they were definitely with him. You sent an SOS message to the group, but they could take hours.
Hitting your head on the stirring wheel, you groaned in tune with the horn. Stuck between Figure Eight and The Cut with your phone battery dead. Maybe you should have called a tow truck before JJ.
With the horn blaring you didn't hear the roar of the motorcycle. It was the sharp knocking on the driver window that caught your attention.
"Holy shit!" You yelled, jumping and holding a hand over your heart.
Stood outside your window in the pouring rain, white shirt soaked through was Rafe Cameron.
"What the hell, are you doing?" You rolled down the window as he frowned at you.
"Oh, that's a shame. I thought I found a dead Pogue"
You could have sworn he looked concerned for a moment before realising it was you.
"Sorry to ruin your fantasy" you grumbled, ready to roll the window up on him but his hand stopped you.
"It's pissing it down," He pointed out, like you couldn't tell.
"And?"
"Let me sit for a bit"
You raised an eyebrow at him, watching the rain drip from his hair as the fabric of his shirt, which made it more and more see-through. He noticed you looking, and a small smirk appeared.
"Come on, my bike is laying in the mud, and this shirt is expensive."
You glanced in the mirror, noticing the motor bike thrown down in the bog like puddle. Had he really been that concerned?
"Fine, but you're phoning for a tow truck." He was already running round to the passenger side.
He made a shivering noise as he slammed the passenger door shut and shook himself. "You didn't call a truck?"
"Dead battery" you held up, your battered and broken phone.
It had a cracked screen and worn-out case, but you loved it. The lock screen was of the gang on the beach, and tucked in the back was a post-it with a doodle from Kie.
It was your father's stupid cupcake, smoking a joint, and the knife stabbed into the icing.
"So we're stuck." Rafe tried not to smile at the doodle as you throw your phone upside down on the dashboard.
"We?" You looked over at him.
Taking in his appearance more. He really did have a body like a Greek god, clearly visible with his shirt clinging to his toned torso. He had a face like an angel when he wasn't scowling.
"Don't have my phone on me, sweetheart" He shrugged, patting his pockets to prove a point.
You stared at him, dumbfounded.
"Who the fuck, doesn't have their phone on them?"
"Didn't think I needed it"
After some silence and the annoyance of him huffing while playing with random things in the van. You snapped,
"Would you stop that?"
"Stop what?"
"Breathing so hard"
"I'm just breathing"
"Well, stop"
"I'm sure you and your little friends would love that"
"I wouldn't be complaining"
"Wow. Ouch" He scoffed, folding his arms over his chest. "Didn't know you could be so heartless"
"Guess we don't know a lot about each other"
"I do" He muttered, so quitely that you barely caught it.
"Oh really? Let's see what the Kook King, thinks of a Pogue 'peasant' like me"
The rain was still hammering down on the windscreen and making a tinny sound as it bounced of the roof of the van.
He scoffed at you again. "I wouldn't say peasant. What with your father's business and all"
You rolled your eyes. Of course, he wouldn't reject the idea of being called Kook King.
Your father's bakery had become so popular in Outerbanks that custom had even spread the main land. He had more than enough to move, upgrade, and even buy a house in the Figure Eight, but he didn't want the change. Everything he was gaining was going into a collage fund for you and your future.
"Thanks, I guess"
Uncomfortable silence fell again as the rain didn't ease.
"Why did you stop?"
"Stop what?" He asked again.
"At the van"
He shrugged "I knew it was your father's"
Rafe didn't look at you as he quickly added at the same time as you, before you even asked why.
"Fucking smiling cupcake"
You actually laughed at the timing. Little did you know, he hated the cupcake as every time he saw it around, he hoped it was you driving.
In the cute polo shirt with the cupcake logo and shorts that hugged your butt. The baseball cap with the same logo, worn backwards and your white, now grey, scuffed up converse.
You bounced around, smiling and wishing good day to people as you delivered the elite of the island. Music blaring out of the rust bucket or taping away on your phone, nodding as you picked the next track before hopping on your bike.
The first time he saw you around was about a year ago. Sure, he'd seen you with the Pogues, but he really noticed you when you had come to Tanneyhill.
It wasn't even an actual delivery. You had been popping by to pick Sarah up for John B bringing a small box of baked goods with you. Wheeze actually hugged you when she saw you at the door. She loved the cupcakes.
"You scared me, you know?" He played with the ring on his finger.
"How?"
"When I saw the van, and the horn. I thought
...." he sighed as you watched him. He looked so vulnerable as he swallowed.
"I was dead?" You frowned, you were going to snark back about how fucking morbid that was before he shook his head and ran his hand through his hair.
"So you throw your bike in the mud? Wow, dramatic much? " You chose a lighter topic, which actually made him laugh.
🧁
"Hey, hey," you hit his hand away from the box of perfectly iced cakes. "Don't eat those!"
"We have been sat here an hour." Rafe pointed out his watch.
Your eyes went wide, shit, shit, shit. An hour. You were an hour late. An hour of money lost. An hour of no one coming to rescue you. A hour of -
"I'm sure, Wheeze won't mind"
Wheeze? What the hell, did he mean Wheeze? His baby sister.
Oh, you were going to kill, Jeremy. The dipshit had put Tawney Hall on the delivery notice. No wonder you couldn't find it. If you known you were delivering for the Camerons you would have never pulled over in the first place.
"Wheezie, wanted a white theme party?" You found that hard to believe.
"Rose wanted" He corrected as he grabbed a cupcake from the box again.
You hit his hand a moment too slow, causing the cupcake to go flying and land on his drying, white shirt. You laughed and covered your mouth.
"Oh, I'm sorry." You tried to be sincere, but the laughter didn't help.
"I told you this was expensive, baby"
He shook his head at you, he looked annoyed but there was a twinkle in his eye. God, had they always been so blue?
He dipped his finger into the icing before making you gasp as he ran it down your nose.
"Rafe, no, no" You laughed and put your hands up but was not use.
Soon, you both ended up covered in icing and crumbled cakes.
His face was so close to yours that you could feel his breath fan over your lips. You had ended up with your back against the door as Rafe fitted perfectly between your legs. His hand cupped your neck as you held his shoulder.
His eyes darted from yours to your lips and back again. He swallowed a few times as your heart beat loudly in your chest.
"Kiss me"
It was a whisper, but he caught it and took only a moment before his lips collied with yours. He tasted of vanilla icing.
You broke suddenly apart as the familiar tune of The Twinkie's horn sounded so close by.

I got a government grant from a clean air project for turning in my '97 Corolla for a very hefty chunk of money off of a new (or new-ish) hybrid vehicle from an approved dealership, finally went to purchase my new car today with my dad, and ended up getting a 2025 Toyota Camry SE.
Sorry, Alastor, I think I'm with Vox on the front of technological advancement, ahaha. It's almost a 30 year jump in car technologies and I damn well feel like I've upgraded into the new century (or, well - millennium, technically)! This car does so many things and they all manage to feel like they are actually convenient rather than useless technology bloat. I think this is technically what Nietzsche meant when he said that to live is to suffer, LOL. Can't appreciate the good stuff if you haven't experienced the alternative! Also, y'know. My breaks lost pressure on me in the middle of a winding mountain road with no cell service last month, so. That was the sign to move on.
It's so wild to go from a car that's got a plain metal key, a phone charger operated through the cigarette lighter that only succeeds in making my phone lose charge more slowly, an AC system that would vibrate the whole dashboard alarmingly if it had to work too hard, and music that I played through a casette tape with bluetooth connectivity...to a car where I get in, put my phone down on the wireless charging pad, and watch the touchscreen automatically turn on with my Spotify and Google maps. Never again am I going to accidentally leave my headlights on and drain my car battery, LOL. Thanks, battery-attached jumper cables, you served me well. The car is so damn quiet and smooth, too.
Also, it's a very pretty car! I got it in white. Sorry, "windchill pearl."
Anyway, I'm just experiencing a delightful bit of awe and joy. Happy graduation and early birthday to me! <3

Behind the Fortress Walls Chapter 4
We've finally got chapter 4 of my bang fic out! Only one more to go, holy shit.
Fic Summary:
Jazz is in love with Dick. He’s kind, considerate, and caring. Far and away the nicest person she’s ever dated. But she’s lying to him. About so, so much. And he’ll hate her once he learns the truth. Assuming he doesn't get tired of her canceling all their dates first. When Danny and Ellie go missing, the latest in a series of ghostly disappearances, she's forced to cancel another date. Going to Elmerton to meet up with Tucker and Sam, she will get Danny and Ellie back from the GIW no matter what it takes. Only...they aren't the only ones breaking in.
Chapter word count: 8.1k
There's an entire comic included with this chapter. Or you can find it on tumblr here.
The scene from the comic:
-----
The hallway ended in a thick metal door that had both electric and manual locks. Before Dick could even offer to take care of it, Tucker shrugged off his own backpack and pulled out a tool kit. Within moments, he had the casing off the keypad and was plugging his own PDA into the system.
Starfire hovered over his shoulder, looking down. “What is the purpose of the device you are using?”
Jazz could hear the smile in Tucker’s voice as he caressed his PDA. “Bethany here is my pride and joy, my child. She’s capable of anything.”
Sam snorted. “It’s a PDA. Not our kid, T— Pharaoh.”
Tucker made hushing noises and clutched Bethany to his chest. “Shhh, you didn’t hear that. Mommy loves you.”
“Just get the door open,” sighed Sam.
“Not until you apologize to our daughter!”
Sam took a deep breath to respond, but Danny interrupted before she could. “Just do it, Regrowth. Pharaoh and I put a lot of work into Bethany.”
Sam’s shoulders slumped. “I’m sorry, Bethany. I love you very much.”
Starfire grinned. “The machine is alive? It is nice to meet you, Bethany!”
Next to her, Jazz felt Dick shake with barely suppressed laughter. When she looked out of the corner of her eyes, she could tell he was biting back a smile.
Sam sighed. “She’s not alive. But Pharaoh and Phantom have been developing and upgrading her over the last several years. They’ve custom built half her parts and replaced the other half.”
Dick hummed in interest. “It looks like an old PDA case. Why didn’t you go for something more modern?”
For the first time that night, Danny grinned at Dick and Jazz felt something inside her relax. “PDAs were what we could afford as teenagers without real jobs. Plus they have bigger casings than modern smart phones; more room to fit more hardware. Beth’s battery lasts weeks.”
Starfire laughed. “Cyborg wishes to know if you would agree to the sharing of specs.”
Tucker practically squeaked at the question and Jazz bit back her own laugh. “Uh, yeah. Sure. Absolutely. He really wants to see?”
“Pharaoh,” said Dick, “if you allow it, he wants to spend at least a week with you figuring out how the tech these guys use works.”
Tucker looked down at Bethany and began typing. “I mean, sure. I’d love to. But if that’s what he wants, D would really be better. He’s the hardware guy, I’m the software guy.”
A moment later, the keypad beeped and they heard a click.
“All right, electronic locks are open. Nightwing, mind getting the rest of them?”
Dick grinned as he sauntered up to the door and pulled out his lock picks again. This door took longer than the first, but even so, it was open in just a minute or two. Dick bowed as he pulled the door open and gestured them through.
He revealed a fairly small room, in the center of which sat what looked like a large boiler with a monitor affixed to it. The glowing green wires spread out of the machine and disappeared into the walls, ceiling, and floor.
-----
Hope you enjoy the chapter!
