#i couldnt tell you why it took me so long i just get weird about listening to music

[alittlegiraffe]

Hiii i was wondering if i could request an eminem x reader, where reader is a popstar in the 90s-00s and her and em date secretly off and on between 99-02 and have a crazy connection but break up until the 2010s after marshall gets sober because they just couldnt get over eachother??? (Sorry if thats confusing or complex lol)

A/N: I really couldn't think of a way to add in her being a pop star without making it weird. Hope this is close enough.

Title: Still You

You never expected to hear from him again.

It had been years—years of moving on, of pretending you were fine, of forcing yourself to believe that some things just weren’t meant to be.

But then, out of nowhere, your phone rang.

And it was him.

You stared at the name on the screen, your heart hammering in your chest. Part of you thought about letting it go to voicemail, but your hands had a mind of their own, answering before you could stop yourself.

"...Hello?"

A Marshall Mathers x Reader Fanfiction

A beat of silence. Then, his voice—lower, rougher than you remembered, but still him.

"Hey."

You swallowed hard, gripping the edge of the counter. "Marshall?"

"Yeah." A breath, like he was trying to figure out what to say. "Uh… I know this is outta nowhere. I just—I needed to tell you somethin’."

You braced yourself. "Okay."

He exhaled, and when he spoke again, his voice was softer. "I got sober."

Your heart clenched.

You had dreamt of hearing those words—had begged for them back then, when you were still by his side, still trying to pull him out of the darkness he refused to see.

But he hadn’t been ready. And it had broken you.

"...Wow," you whispered, your throat tight. "Marshall, that’s—God, that’s amazing."

He let out a quiet laugh, almost disbelieving. "Yeah. Took me long enough."

You shook your head, even though he couldn’t see it. "No. You did it when you were ready. And I’m—" Your voice wavered. "I’m so damn proud of you."

Silence stretched between you, heavy with everything unspoken.

Finally, he cleared his throat. "I don’t expect anything from this call," he admitted. "I just… I needed to tell you. ‘Cause losing you? That was my rock bottom. And I just—" He hesitated. "Thank you."

You pressed a hand to your chest, trying to steady your breathing.

You had spent so long wondering if he had ever thought about you, if he had ever missed you the way you missed him.

And now, here he was, saying the words you had ached to hear.

"Marshall," you murmured, voice thick with emotion. "I never—" You paused, swallowing hard before trying again. "I never stopped loving you."

His breath hitched.

Your eyes burned with unshed tears. "I missed you every day. I still do."

The silence that followed wasn’t heavy this time. It was hopeful.

Like maybe, just maybe, this wasn’t the end of your story.

Maybe it never had to be.

Neither of you spoke for a long moment.

Marshall was still on the other end of the line, you could hear his breathing—uneven, like your words had knocked the air out of him.

You hadn’t meant to say it.

You weren’t supposed to say it.

But it had been there for years, locked away behind pride and heartbreak, and the second he called, the second you heard his voice, it all cracked wide open.

"You still—" He stopped, cleared his throat. "You still miss me?"

You closed your eyes. "Every day, Marshall."

Another silence. But this one felt different—charged, thick with something unsaid.

Finally, he let out a soft, disbelieving laugh. "Shit… I dunno what to say to that."

You smiled, shaking your head. "You don’t have to say anything."

He exhaled sharply. "Nah, I do. ‘Cause I miss you, too. Always did. Even when I tried to pretend I didn’t."

You leaned against the counter, gripping your phone tighter. "Then why didn’t you ever call before?"

He sighed. "Didn’t think I had the right to." A pause. "I fucked it up. I hurt you. And I knew if I ever wanted to fix shit, I had to fix me first."

Your heart twisted.

The man you had walked away from was stubborn, reckless—too lost in his addiction to see what he was destroying. But this? This was different.

This was growth.

This was him finally seeing himself the way you had always seen him.

"Are you happy?" you asked quietly.

Marshall hesitated. "Gettin’ there," he admitted. "S’not easy. Some days are harder than others. But I feel… clearer. More like myself than I have in years."

A warmth spread through your chest. "That’s all I ever wanted for you."

"I know," he murmured. "And I was too fucked up to see it."

Another silence. Another shift in the air.

Finally, he spoke again, voice careful. "Do you think… we could see each other?"

Your breath hitched.

You should’ve been scared. Should’ve hesitated.

But you didn’t.

"Yeah," you whispered. "I’d like that."

And for the first time in years, you felt like you were exactly where you were meant to be.

Right back where you started.

Right back where you belonged.

---

You hadn’t let yourself think about that night in a long time.

It was easier to bury it, to pretend that the final fight—the one that ended it all—was just another moment lost in the wreckage of what you and Marshall used to be.

But after hearing his voice again, after agreeing to see him, it all came rushing back like a wound torn open.

It had started like so many fights before—words sharp enough to cut, his eyes glassy, his hands twitching as he paced the living room.

"Why the fuck do you always have to start shit?" he had snapped, running a hand over his face.

You had laughed, but there was no humor in it. "I’m not starting shit, Marshall. I’m begging you to wake the fuck up."

He rolled his eyes, turning away from you, muttering something under his breath.

"Don’t do that," you had hissed. "Don’t act like I’m the problem when you’re the one getting high out of your mind every night."

He scoffed. "Oh, right. Because you never fucked up, huh? You’re so fucking perfect."

"This isn’t about me!" You had thrown your hands up, frustration boiling over. "This is about you being too fucking blind to see what you’re doing to yourself—to us."

"Jesus Christ, here we go again," he had muttered.

That’s when you lost it.

"You know what? Yeah, here we go again, Marshall! The same fucking cycle, the same excuses, the same bullshit. You promise you’ll get better, and I believe you, and then you turn around and prove me wrong every single time."

He had glared at you, jaw clenched, breathing heavy. "If I’m so fucking hopeless, why are you still here?"

And that’s when you knew.

Because the truth was, you had already been gone for a long time.

Your body was still in that house, your heart still trying to hold on, but the person you were—the person who had once believed he would fight for you, for himself—she had left months ago.

You had swallowed the lump in your throat, forcing your voice to stay steady. "I don’t know," you had admitted.

That had stopped him in his tracks.

His expression had changed—not angry, not defensive. Just… lost.

You had seen the flicker of something behind his eyes, something real, something terrified.

But it was too late.

"I can’t do this anymore," you had whispered. "I love you, Marshall. But I can’t watch you destroy yourself."

His hands had curled into fists at his sides. "So that’s it?" His voice had cracked. "That’s it?"

And maybe, if he had said something else—anything else—you would’ve stayed.

But he hadn’t.

He had just stared at you, letting the silence fill the space between you, his pride swallowing the words he was too afraid to say.

So you had turned around, grabbed your bag, and walked out the door.

And he had let you.

Now, sitting on your couch, your phone still clutched in your hands, you let out a shaky breath.

He had let you walk away back then.

But tonight?

Tonight, he was the one who reached out.

And maybe—just maybe—this time, neither of you would let go.

watching every single barbie movie 🎀 🩷

content creator ted nivison x actress reader

a youtuber dms you asking for help with a video, do you agree and meet this overly passionate film major, or opt out and possibly never meet the man of your dreams

ted had this video planned for months.

his goal was to watch every single barbie movie before the movie came out

and it was going well

the cast had already been announced and trailers had been released

and he had always loved your work

he thought you had a great filmography, and i mean, he also thought you were really hot

so he was really excited to see what you would bring to the screen

a week into his project he noticed he was getting a lot of attention on twitter (i'm not calling that shit X.)

he ignored it as usual, until his friend tucker told him he needed to go take a look, and tucker did not mess around about that stuff.

if he told you to check something, you better look.

he opened the clip of you and jack manifold, seemingly on his you laugh you lose series

the video started and you still maintained all three lives, while jack only had one left, you two were joking around and laughing

"objects ive shoved up my ass" was the next video and you and jack recited it together, almost making you laugh, ted was starting to regret listening to tucker, i mean this had nothing to do with him

until jack told chat to send in edits of his friends, and asked you to rate them, you agreed as that shit was funny, the first few rolled in, a couple "he's cute!" one "she's hot." but nothing that people cared about.

then came an edit of a man who you didnt know the name, but lord he was good looking, you barely even noticed how quiet, and red, you got

starstruck, you finally found words "jack who is that." jack was desperately trying to not laugh, as the stream was not near how long he wanted

"ted, my friend ted nivison" jack let out as he tried to calm his breathing.

you leaned close into your mic "chat, is this man accounted for." you stared intently at chat waiting for an answer, when you saw many no's you smiled

"this is a message to ted television- wait what was his name? nivison, doesnt even matter. if you see this, i want you. dm me, you beautiful, beautiful man." the stream quickly ended as jack couldnt keep it together.

ted was sat in bed, staring at his phone, for maybe twenty minutes, he rewatched the clip countless times

he was speechless

why was his celeb crush calling him beautiful?!?

he was too scared to dm you, like what if you didnt see it

or what if you just said it cause you were live?

so decided to grow a pair and ask jack for your number, it felt more formal that way.

the day after your stream with jack you recieved a text from an unknown number

and god you really hoped it was the man from the edit

so thats what you did, and he answered your facetime within two rings. hot.

his face and dopey grin filled the screen, as well as your heart "hi ted." you smiled at him

"hi." the call was silent for a while, as you two kinda just took the other in

"i have a question." ted finally broke the scilence when you nodded and gave him the go away he began his tangent.

"well as we know you are in the upcoming barbie movie, and ive began a project to watch every single barbie movie before i go and see the movie, i was wondering if you would like to maybe, be in the video, you of course dont have to, i understand if thats weird but i rea-"

"ill be in your video ted, just tell me where you want me and ill be there." ted smiled anxiously, you could tell how much this ment to him.

you two continued talking for the coming weeks

and became very close, like it was so obvious you wanted eachother

flirting, joking, and borderline sexting became normal for the two of you

and even with very tough scheduling

and alot of sacrifices

you were going to miss one interview to drive to teds house and spend a whole day watching barbie movies with him

finding out ted only lived like 45 minutes from you was the peak of your year

on your drive to his house you thought about how fast this man made an impact on your chaos filled life

you spent most days on camera with a mic in your face, being asked questions by people who dont know you

today you were gonna watch nine movies with someone who you actually hoped would never stop asking you questions

when you arrived at teds apartment, you were filled with excitement, what should you even do when you saw him, hug him, kiss him?

you were scared you were gonna make a decision you would later regret, but the moment the door flung open you knew that wasnt possible

ted launched at you and swept you off your feet in a bone crushing hug, and you couldnt of been happier.

you stayed like that for a moment until he finally let you down and you could actually get a good look at him

his tall frame filled your view, and you felt yourself going feral

the day was spent watching movies, the occasional makeout sesh, and filming for his youtube channel

lets just say, thank jack manifold, for getting you on that grind ;)

guys im back, still a little sick, but we prevail 💪

cant stop that jack manifold grind 😉

im so sorry the ending sucks butt, im so tired and want to nap, so the 5 of yall that read this will have to live

“Is this something we are meant to do?”

“Fuck it.”

“Jesus Matt, what took you so lo- oh.” Chris turns to face me, meeting my exhausted expression as I rubbed my face. “Rough night?”

“Alyia and I were messaging all night; I think I slept…? Maybe an hour at best” My eyes immediately side eye Chris when I see him start to smirk at me. “Oh, shut up Chris. At least I’m talking to a girl”

“Nick is quick to stop our bickering by setting some food down in front of Chris and I, one by one. My body slumps down to the chair next to me, my head heavily hitting the pillow underneath me.

I raise an eyebrow to Nick, adjusting myself slowly in my seat.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t fucking burn it this time...” I smile to myself when I hear his sighs, tired of me bringing it up. Nick returns to the kitchen counter to get his own share of waffles, along with some syrup he had previously subsided for himself.

“So, what were you and Alyia chatting about?” Chris’s words emit around and mouth full of food, making me grimace before I think about my answer.

“Just, stuff I guess…nothing special.” An arm leans over my body to pick up a waffle that I then dip into some extra syrup that had dripped off.

“Don’t look at me like that Chris, I can fucking feel you staring.” I glare over to Chris, his eyes already staring into mine. “What…you meet a girl and suddenly you stay out late with her in random places that you wont even tell us about, and you stay up all night talking over the phone with her. You can’t tell me that’s not weird.

“That’s not weird.” I simply roll my eyes once he starts his typical mocking.

“You have to admit Matt, this is really uncommon for you, you don’t even do that with Nate half the time.” Nick shrugs his shoulders, keeping his gaze towards his food.

“Why do you encourage him, Nick…” I let a sigh brush pass my lips and roll my eyes.

Nick goes to speak again but the chime of my phone interrupts him.

Alyia🎸:

‘Hey Matt, are we still down for practice today?’

“Lemme guess, that’s Alyia” Instantly, Chris chimes in and I glare at him again. He instantly holds his hands up by his head in defence, standing up to take his plate to the kitchen. My phone chimes again and I pick it up to respond, I feel Nick’s eyes on me again, so I look at him. I nod my head reluctantly at him showing that Chris was right, not that I would admit that to him.

-

“Hey! Glad to know you came, I didn’t know if you would after the amount that I kept you up last night.” Her words see to mumble as her body becomes closed off to me.

“It’s fine, I’m just surprised that my parents or brothers yelled at me this morning for being awake so long.” A clear attempt at a joke is made yet her tight-lipped smile made me regret my choice of words. “Oh… sorry I didn’t mean to.”

“Don’t worry about it, Matt, I’m fairly used to their distancing at this point to be honest, I don’t want you to apologize for anything.” Her smile changes to one of sincerity, making me return it back.

“I just feel bad…you know?”

“Why?” The genuine curiosity confused me. “I have learnt to adapt to them; besides I have some pretty awesome people around me, I’m not in complete solitude.”

Her words linger in my brain, perhaps more than they should.

I’ve learnt to adapt to them.

It sounded too nonchalant for a sentence of high intensity. I had seen this happen multiple times now, especially around her mom. Only, I simply never wanted to pry. The night she stayed over for the first time, her mom called her. The contact’s name was a start, her full legal name was on show with no emojis or care. I thought it was odd but when the voices transferred and mingled over the phone it began a little too clear, no matter how hard she had tried to hide it. The mood swings when she was mentioned was one that I had grown unexpectedly familiar too. I had tried to avoid that topic whenever I could and luckily Nick and Chris hadn’t mentioned it either.

“Matt?”

“Huh? Oh, sorry…” My hand subconsciously rubs the back of neck before wrapping around the chain of my necklace. “What did you say?”

“I was just wondering if you wanted to try any of the songs we mentioned last night.”

-

I couldn’t shake this morning all that well, I didn’t know why either. She wasn’t saying anything in a way to make me question it. I didn’t even know the entire story, but I knew enough.

“Uhm, excuse me? You’re Matthew, right?” A steady voice came from beside me as I walked, dragging me from my thoughts. My body turns to face where the sound comes from, and I notice a boy about my age walking by my side.

“Yeah? Can I help you.” I slow my pace down to a more comfortable pace and I pay attention to him, the slight smile below the glasses which round his face, the darker skin matching his black hair which was tied into loose dreads. He wore a lot of leather, patched with badges and band logos which for the most part were recognisable to me.

“Actually yeah, were you the one who played drums at the talent show two or so months ago?”

“With Damien, Jess and Martha? I was, why?” I get intrigued the more I listen to his voice and the rasps that emit every few words.

“Miss Ackley has been putting together some type of music club shit, after school! She asked a few of us to get together some people who might be interested in joining a band or any form of music club to enhance skill.” His words ramble together, and I try and comprehend them as best as I can.

“Like a band camp?” My eyebrow raises at him, and we pause when I reach my locker, trying to show my interest while putting the pin for it in.

“Sorta, we are planning a ‘band camp’ trip for the end of the year but for now it’s a space to form bands and people to adapt our skill sets in.” He can tell I’m hesitant over this, I mean this is what I have Alyia for, right?

“We aren’t looking for any answers today, simply that you consider it. And if it isn’t your ideal situation, then you could share this to anyone who might be interested.” A flyer stands between me and the boy, decorated in deep yellows and blues spreading behind multiple instruments and equipment.

“I’ll have a look into that, thanks.”

“Of course, if you have any questions about it, my number is at the bottom of that sheet.” He beams at me, and I just look down to find the number, taking my time since my lack of sleep affects my vision.

After that he walks away with a small wave from his wrist, but my gaze heavily remains on the paper in my hand. Everything seems manually drawn to match each other and I admire the colours and patterns before my eyes trace the text. My body walks forward towards the music room, letting muscle memory take over while I keep reading over things. After a paragraph or so I look at the number again and notice a name marked next to it – Benjamin.

My hand reaches the door handle and I push it open to meet Alyia. Her hands tracing over each string gently to produce a small hum, barely audible from her headphones. I stand there for a bit watching her play, she just seemed so relaxed but that could just be the lack of sleep. The small hair stands which fall slowly don’t seem to bother her as she keeps strumming softly.

“Are you going to keep staring or what” her voice grabs my attention even though her body doesn’t change position until her sentence is over.

“Oh, uhm sorry.” I mutter before swiftly moving and shutting the door behind me, placing my bag next to the leather seats.

“Have you been handed one of these yet?” I lay the sheet onto the seat next to her and watch as she stops playing and sets down her guitar. Her headphones now rest on her neck as she scans the paper.

“What is this?” She shoots a confused look at me, but I try not to pay too much attention to it.

“Just read it and find out…” I playfully roll my eyes at Alyia and move to sit over by my drum kit.

“Band camp? That’s some corny shit, don’t tell me you’re going to that ‘camp rock’ shit.” She tries to joke but her face falters when I don’t reciprocate her smile.

“Actually, I was…and it’s not ‘camp rock’. It’s a social place to help practice with other people, and then a summer camp at the end of the year to go and meet professionals and go to a festival to perform.”

“Oh...my bad.” A brief and awkward silence falls over us until I decide to speak again.

“I was going to ask if you wanted to join me but…” I swing side to side on my chair as my voice dims down.

“Matt, I don’t like crowds and besides I practice solo. This isn’t something I am exactly interested in.”

“You practice with me fine enough?” I try and convince her a little, but she only rolls her eyes at me.

“You’re different, you know that.” She pauses abruptly to stare me noticing my immediate smile. “Don’t let that get your head.”

“Too late for that.” I remain smirking at her, but Alyia just glares at me back, I move past that pretty quick and relax my body down on my seat.

“C’mon” I drag out the syllables as I talk, getting up to stand in front of her. “It could be real fun, extra practice between us…and other people of course.”

“Okay. Don’t say it like that first of all.” Her voice quiets after her words and I attempt to gain her attention back with a slight wave of my hand.

“And second?” my face relaxes from its previous smile and changes to a more curious one.

“Second of all…I’ll think about it…” Alyia’s words soften and are quiet due to her admission.

“Yes!” my stupid smile is met with her own as I jump from my seat and pick up the information sheet by her side and start to ramble through the text.

Alyia pov:

I don’t even know why I had given in to matt so easily, but I guess I just didn’t want to let him down. He seemed so excited and yet I wasn’t, I can’t remember the last time I ever played music in front of anyone, except Matt. The more he rambled next to me, the less of his words I remembered. I heard his voice clearly, but I was internally planning what situations might arise if I did show up. It didn’t seem like a lot but as someone who has been separated from people most of their life, this was a big deal.

The bell rang and made both Matt and I jump at the sudden sound that echoed through the hallways.

Matt grabs a few of his things and places them back into his bag and slides the sheet back over to rest next to my leg.

“Promise me you’ll consider it? At least…” his eyes stare into mine, almost begging me to think about it, as if he can’t handle his own in a small crowd of people.

“Fine. Only because you asked me alright?” I stand up and swing my bag over my shoulder.

“Thanks, sweetheart.” The nickname catches me off guard, like it has every other time, and he smiles at the shocked expression on my face and walks away quickly.

My body stays still in its position for a short while longer, processing the nickname. He hasn’t done it without some sort of comforting context to it and this was different.

And in public.

[ganondoodle]

i might have talked about it before but i kinda wanna rant a lil how nonsensical both the "getting of the time reversal" and "giving zelda the mastersword" things are

bc ... to get the time reversal powers you touch a ... ghost of the enigma stone that used to be there .. and i GUESS it was the one zelda has now but used to be raurus and since its now linked to her we get .... link being astral projected into ghosty dimension similar to the other sages and we get zeldas sage power, but .. how does that even work, zelda, having supposedly long lost her soul to being a dragon is somehow still able to do the whole sage thing of taking you to fogland mclight dimension, just doesnt tell you the same stuff the other sages do word for word (thank GOD)

but how did that even manifest? even ignoring her soul being GONE how can she make that oath or whatever while shes not awake and just floating there, what business does the ghost engima stone have there and why dont the others have something similar to where they were once stored (in the forgotten temple backrooms tm bc we cant have the sonau NOT touch a thing in this world all of the sudden-)

is it bc they were like ... released of their holder from the old sages since they had long died and those go back to being big floaty stones (for whatever reason .. shouldnt have sonias stone done the same when gan took it then??)- also zeldas ability being put into the hand ability wheel while we gotta chase down the damn sages any time you want to use one of their abilities is so unfair .. you could have made the sages usable .. but no ..

its a relatively small complaint compared to the rest but it still bothers me bc it just ... feels so contrived, like it feels to be so clearly just some loose string to get you that power

the same with the weird ass time bubble to get the mastersword back in time to zelda just so she can have a flimsy reason to do what she does (we wouldnt want the character this series is named after be an actual CHARACTER instead of a pretty prize at the end now would we??) and its jsut so .......... why not have her grab the broken master sword as shes falling into the past (SOMEHOW) or it falling down with her bc really link shouldnt maybe not be able to hold it anymore- wait he reaches for her with that hurt hand .. so he did drop it .. and it somehow got back to him instead of being put into the past WITH zelda right then and there?? why??

(also ..rauru just teleporting him to the sky island ... wasnt that arm the last bits of raurus physical body? was his ghost just chilling up there the whole time- ... can ghosts in totk control and teleport their physical, dead limbs to whereever their ghost is? why can a ghost even be so far apart from the rest of his remains .... or was that spiraling energy stuff just him slowly turning into a ghost there ... but my point about ghosts controlling their dead limbs still stands- WAIT he ALSO has to be able to ... SEE somehow bc he grabbed link before he fell too .... the way he talks when you find him chilling on the island tho is like hes seeing it all for the first time too .. so .. he wasnt a ghost yet and still knew where to go .. even tho the place is somehwere totally different to where it used to be and if he became a ghost right there why couldnt you see him when he grabbed link... if the hand that grabbed link wasnt actual the one that fell off gan why does it look like it then? bc gan hand was long and thin with long ass class and raurus actual ghost hands are barely different from typical human ones- .. i think im having more thoughts about this point thant nintendo had over the entirety of making the game .... also fuck rauru for doing the fake out "oooh noooo im fading awayyy" thing just so he doesnt have to answer any of your thousand questions i guess, only to return at the end going, "actually, i want my arm back and yours was fine anyway lol, and here sonia is here too for some reason! also check this out! zelda is back and you didnt have to do shit, isnt that cool?")

the weird time bubble makes me so angry when i remmeber it exists bc it just .. makes NO sense?? what even is it?? if it was a foreshadowing to zelda learning to use her new time powers and you find more over time in the game where she manifests mroe and more until she manages to return on her own like it was kinda teased with sonia tellign her shell find a way to use her new powers to go back since she (SOMEHOW) also got herself here and that point going nowhere like so many other points (hows it going impah, foudn a way to get zelda back yet? dont bother, turns out the solution was 'beat the bad guy' and it all solved itself) OK fine, that works

BUT ITS NOT a foreshadowing of anything, the time bubble thing is just THERE and it drives me nuts, it really only adds to this whole game feeling so weirdly held together by loose strings and it just gets worse the more you think

[quiminus]

Arg brothers (gender neutral) if anyone here on tumblr ever read my fic that i have in my pinned post but still im so sorry ch 7 is coming i know what to do but inspiration is drawing me elsewhere so here it is part two of this enjoy (also i changed some stuff some ideas were gotten)

Pov first aid

How weird is it that i like that vortex is turned on by me dissecting a quint - thought felix as vortex continued to kiss along his neck

-hey! - felix yelped when he was suddently bitten

- sorry darling, couldnt resist - vortex grinned unapologetic

- at least dont do it somewhere its  noticeable - grumbled felix

- babe, darling, felix we are in a simulation - vortex lifted his head from his neck to look at him

- i know but its the...- felix was about to say when suddently there was a knock on the door

- AAauurrg -vortex maoned in frustation his chance to get down with the one pilot he actually liked ruined

- who is it? - felix ignored vortexes grumbling

- can i come in? - said a voice he never heard before

- no - vortex whispered dipping his hand lower on aids body his head nuzzling his neck

- yes! - first aid gave vortex a look

The door to their imaginary lab opened a man that looked to be in his late 20s possibly early 30s steped in his imaginary lab he was wearing a different version of the pilot suit he and tex were wearing instead of something custon made for the pilot that matched the mech they were piloting his was much more a blend of a standard military uniform with a space suit in the colors of faded red and blue

- umm hello...? - said the man noticing what he had just walked into

- uuuuuhhh, hello? Who are you? - asked first aid not expecting anyone else to be in this dream world

After he woke up here he found out the intire building was empty save for the lab that had a fresh quint and vortex in it after some piecing together of memories it was easy to conclude that this was a simulation made by shockwave to get them distracted while he finalized whatever the hell he was doing in the real world

- my name is orion, im looking for shockwave? - said orion with a small frown

- shockwave? Hes not here thank god -vortex said said with a hint of anoyance still hugging first aid

- oh ok, do you at least know where he is? - asked orion disapointed

- no im sorry - said first aid confused - why are you looking for him?

- Oh, we where having tea, he said he forgot something in his lab and went to pick it up but he has not come back yet, im starting to get worried

- shockwave? doing anything that isnt ultra mega fucked up, now who are you ? - vortex finally deigned to emerge from felixs neck and properly participate in the conversation

- me and shock pilot, a mech together - orion was confused by the coment made

Vortex looked at first aid, first aid looked at vortex, shockwave was not a pilot anymore he was the chief scientist

- now, now hold up a moment there, what do you mean you and him pilot together? - vortex was now interested, he wanted to know more about this strange man that appeared out of nowhere

- yes me and shockwave pilot together though i must say I havent piloted in quite a while - orion was getting progressively more confused

In turn the couple was also getting more confused shockwave was a pilot but he hadnt piloted in a long looong while not after the incident that took out his arm

- um excuse me orion what year is it? - asked first aid

- oh, uuuhh its 201x - said orion wondering why that question had been asked

- no its not its 202x - aswered first aid

Orions face was comicaly bewildered

- huh? - was the only thing he said

Pov swindle

- how, how thats thats not possible - said the con man watching swerve go from robot to some kind of car then back to robot

While swindle was having his perception of cars thrown upside down blurr was laughing at him

- you stop that, when were you gonna tell me that swerve of all people was secretly an alien car - huffed swindle

- hahasssorry swin we were gonna tell, but then swerve got captured, i tried to free him and now look at where we are - blurr was breathing deeply trying to stop laughing and only being partially successfull

- ok ok talking about swerve jUst WHAT  WHAT ??? - swindle felt like he was losing his mind one moment he was in his office the next he was in a grassy field with blurr and an alien that turned into a car

- does this mean im fired? - swerve said a small unsure smile on his face

Swindle just stared at him his eyes wide mouth opening and closing as if he were a fish he looked to the perfect skies of this simulation and then down to the grass that was also perfectly green

He looked at swerve, swerve looked at him he sighed - no you are not fired

Swerve and blurr light up like a firework

- yay - thanks a lot boss - said the two

- but first i want an explanation a good one,

what are you, where do you came from, and why just why ? - said swindle locking eyes with swerve his gaze was that of a man who was mad

- ok sooo where do i start? - said the robot

Pov combaticons

- where is swindle?  - brawl said with a bottle of whiskey on hand

- i dont know maybe he is with someone else maybe he isnt even trapped in this simulation - said blast off from the crook of onslaughts arm

- hmn doubt it, shockwave wouldnt let the little weasel free, swin would notice something was wrong and would start investigating he is probably somewhere else - said the deep voice of onslaught

- i hope hes okay - said brawl digging around the mess for a cup on what was the imaginary version of their old quarters on mecha

- he is fine, im sure of it, hes almost like vortex in terms of being durable - onslaught said with a sense of confidence

Pov jazz

- prowl - jazz groaned in frustration

- yes? - replied prowl pausing his explanation of why he thought caling the human galaxy the milky way was stupid

- we are back at square zero - said jazz anoyed

- wh? - prowl turned to his human not understanding what he was talking about

- think prowler think, the mech program the experiments - jazz said tiredly

Then it hit him like a punch square in the face plate they were in a simulation they had tried sneaking out of it and it hadnt worked shockwave caught them and put them back where they started

His door wings dropped in frustration

- what do we do now? - asked jazz to prowl

- we think of another way, we cant let him get away with this - prowl said already running calculations through his head

Jazz looked down his emf field broadcasting his sadness and disapoitment

Prowl pet jazz and jazz gave him a little smile

Pov frist aid

Oh boy, oh no please dont go into shock- thought first aid as he and vortex fineshed explaining everything to orion his face was horrorfied his eyes wide

- oh - was all that he said in a small voice

- oh indeed, but something that i wanted to ask if you were having tea with shockwave how were you able to get here to us, first aid here already ran through the entire building and there is no exit? - vortex said curious

- i, i dont know truth be told i just went looking for shockwave and opned the same door he went out in and started walking and thats how i got here - said orion honestly

- can you do it again, can you take us with you? - asked felix his voice getting more excited

- um, i dont know maybe? - orion said turning back to the door he had walked in

He walked closer to it, first aid and vortex did too orionnopned the grabed first aid and vortex and jumped into the void below

Pov shockwave

Shockwave was by orions bed looking at him sleeping so peacefully it had been a while since shockwave had last visited orion on the real world he generaly just made sure the simation ran okay so that orion would have something to do while in the coma but his trip to the simulation inspired him to do this he grabed orions hand and gave it a small kiss, he fluffed his pilows played with his hair bit and then went back to work, he almost finishing orions new body just a few tweaks and the matrix and orion would be his again

If you read it his far thanks i wasnt originally planing on writting more but then someone reblogged the first part gave me an idea so here is part 2 ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

[rouge-fauna]

I paid to see the podcast to see what they said about dream.

Tommy said that he priv messaged dream many times to try to solve their issues and it went nowhere. Tommy called dream selfish and self indulgent and was upset by how dream took his video. He spoke about how after 'if youtubers were honest' video dropped dream sent a long angry dm which made tommy hate dream and block him but prior to that tommy percieved his video as a joke and didn't expect dream to get mad at him, tommy said that his friends were telling him that dream would drop him and tommy told him that wouldnt happen and he told jack back then that dream isnt mean. I have a problem with this for a lot of reasons like ofc dreams gonna get mad at you the video mocked him badly and caused his family to get harrassed. Tommy said hes done with the situation and he doesnt respect dream, he said dream didnt take accountability for anything, he said he and dream were close and that he looked up to him and that the whole situation makes him upset, he said that dream lacks guilt?? He said that the situations made him focus more on comedy gigs irl and pretty much quit youtube in a way. Tommy says he believes that dream manipulated him for their whole 3 friendship.

Jack said near the end "I don't think dream is even realizing what hes doing. I genuinely think he lacks the ability to read social cues" which is like no shit sherlock, dreams autistic. Jack talks about the problems he ahd with dream from his stream such as bringing up that priv dm he and dream had, jack said he doesn't hate dream but that he doesn't understand him, and he doesnt understand why dream got involved and said the r slur. Jack said that in his priv call to dream he couldnt tell him the full reason on why he doesn't like dream, jack says that dreams reddit post where he said 'back to gaming' felt insensitive and ddidnt feel like his apology was legit. Jack says that you cant apologize then just redo it again.

This was a very painful annoying watch and I mreally mad. WHy does dream get misconstrued this badly. Its just rlly said seeing someone that dream cared for constantly go on and on about how he 'manipulated' him when all he did was give youtube advice and have some angry justifiable rants. And tommy srsly believes this shit, and jack points out that dream struggles with social cues and social norms but still twists everything dream does like be fr rn.

Yes I didn’t even watch the video but read summaries like yours and I’m second hand triggered (no I don’t have proof of that lol :p). I talked a bit about what Jack said in a previous post before I remembered this was in my inbox… oops. But “no shit Sherlock” sums but my thoughts pretty well lol. I also found it interesting that Jack said he didn’t know why he disliked Dream, making me think it’s again - because of his inherent instinctual hate of autistic people in general. I also found it interesting that in the podcast Jack said he does hate Dream he just doesn’t understand him, but in a previous podcast episode he says how he’s always hated Dream… so which is it Jack?

He also apparently talked about how he doesn’t think Dream is a pedophile and yet has not problems making jokes about it for over a year… okay Jack whatever. That’s screwed up either way but… almost worse if you don’t believe it cuz now you’re just bashing his image and you know it.

I also found it weird how evidently both Jack and Tommy talked about how it was impossible to handle things with private, since as we know other creators have and we’ve even see the results with creators stop shit talking about him afterwards. So why did Tommy, Jack, and Ludwig is it so hard… just interesting, clearly it’s not impossible otherwise Dream would have no friends whatsoever. And isn’t Tommy the one who used to be privately Dream’s friend but then publically bashing him? What do you mean it’s impossible to resolve things?! Bruhhh… now there is also something weird about that in general because, given I don’t know how he said it or the exact circumstances, but according to the summaries I was looking at Tommy both claims he didn’t block Dream and tried to resolve things, and yet in his video to Dream on YouTube it makes it seem like he’s had Dream blocked for a long while making it impossible to resolve things privately. So perhaps an inconsistency or perhaps I just don’t have all the facts. I don’t know.

It bothers me how Jack talks about Dream’s (wasn’t it back to coding) in his Reddit post apology, because for starters, Dream deleted the post and says on stream he deceived to stream instead and talk about it so that’s why he deleted the post. So honestly that’s a weak comments. And then I also saw that apparently Jack talked about how someone can’t just apologize and then redo it again. And I’m gonna be real. I disagree. I see no issue with apologizing and then apologizing better or apologizing that your previous apology was poor. And I find it rich coming from someone who’s bashed someone for over a year and has yet to issue and single apology for that. I’d rather someone who takes owes up and apologizes multiple times than someone who doesn’t at all. I also think I’ve said this before but the remarks about how Dream doesn’t take accountability or as Tommy talks about doesn’t seem to feel guilt weird, because Dream has to be the content creator who has apologized the most for so many thing, even the dumbest things he should even need to. Furthermore, lacks guilt and empathy and taking responsibility? Dream literally talks about how he sent that scathing long message to Tommy and how it went to far and he apologized. So what do you mean lacks guilt. If anyone lacks guilt it’s literally the Brighton gang who still haven’t apologized. Or Tommy who seems to feel no guilt over posting that YouTube video and sending even more hate to Dream. It’s ridiculous.

Finally, I just think it’s interesting how Tommy talks about how he thinks Dream is self indulgent and selfish after he literally spent hours on his stream making no money and spending hours on call, making no money. I mean he didn’t even really her the clout of being Tommy’s friend since Tommy publicly seemed to hate him. Dream is a lot of things but selfish isn’t one of them. If he was selfish he would’ve stream and stole all the views and reality would be so different than it is today… furthermore, I think it is telling how Dream and Tommy talk about eachother. Like Dream talks about how he respects Tommy and Tommy is a good person who makes good content, who has good work ethic and was a big part of what made the dsmp what it was. Meanwhile Tommy calls Dream a bad guy, says he doesn’t respect Dream, talks about how he manipulated him and he was such a bad friend and such. And like isn’t that in itself telling of their characters? That even in conflict one side is still complimenting and respecting the other side while they are calling him this bad guy. It’s just, makes it hard for me to side with Tommy, and perhaps people call that Dream being manipulative, but even so that also just makes Tommy an asshole for shit talking him period. It’s just not nice to call someone a dickhead or insinuate they committed crimes or are a pedophile or manipulator or harasser when those things just aren’t true and you know they aren’t. How is he the good guy in this story? Like even if you believe them, even if you believe that Dream somehow manipulated Tommy and took advantage of him, (how? I don’t know what is there to gain? He’s not gaining fame - already had plenty of subscribers from manhunt - he’s not gaining fortune - he’s not gaining like… Tommy have never accused him of grooming him or whatever so Dream isn’t manipulating him for anything like that, they aren’t even in person, so what is Dream’s motivation except friendship?) Tommy still isn’t a good guy in this story, as c!Dream says ‘treating the bad guy bad doesn’t make you a good person’…

KALI WHAT HOW DID THE CONVO WITH THE TAXI DRIVER GOOO I WANNA KNOW LIKE

aashi, 🧠 ,nonny, lmfaooo ok ok y'all wanna know i see y'all LOL!

I was so unbelievably fucked up. okay hoe story time i guess fikadfjvzdkf..... 1 of 2 cause i did hookup with someone else the first night.

I had been drinking since like 1pm that day, went to this outdoor ski club with friends got a table with champagne guns, went to dinner drank margs, drank more back at the airbnb, drank at the club then drank whiskey and took an edible at the tinder hookups place. he could get hard worth a damn and his dick was tiny, had to be like 4 inches max and was a total disappointment!!! I didn't even put on my body suit, just my bra and leggings leaving the place just threw my pufferjacket on over LOL.

But I remember getting in the car and the taxi driver trying to make conversation (it had to be like 2am in the morning? i think?) being like "oh is that your friend" and then i think i said something like "no thats my tinder date" and then them noticing my face was like stank about it then was like "oh did it not go well?"

girl.... SIS, please tell me why i straight up told this man "no, he couldnt stay hard" LJKFLKSRJBFKJ HELLO!?!? WHAT IS WRONG WITH MEEEE??? I couldn't lie!? Like that edible had hit and it was just pure honesty lmfao, just zero common sense. im already a pretty upfront person but like yeah i just said that.

then he was like "well do u still wanna fuck? cause ill show you a good time and i thnk ur hot as fuck." he was like my place isnt far from here. and i was like "okay, lets go." LOL!

i dont remember much of the convo after that. i dont even remember this mans name. but we did have sex, he didnt last very long but ate decent coochie lol. he like apologized ajdfvskjd he didnt fuck me as hard as he said he would but he was literally like daddy age like 45-50? he was cute tho! it was weird cause he had all these engines in his living room and he said something about auto parts but i dont remember (which is kinda serial killer coded ngljksdbcfakzjd). the ride back i dont really remember cause i think i passed out somehow gave him my address. (im such a mess no one do what i did cause you could get kidnapped but all my friends have my iphone locationand they actually were checking lol)

lol side note, he drove be back to the townhome airbnb me and my friends rented. i had him drop me off at the wrong one and ended up walking through 2 backyards to find the right one (literally could have gotten eaten by a bear cause theres hella bears in whistler, like there were bear tracks around hdasdbhjcasb). came inside was so fucked up i fell flat on my face and laid there for a while but then decided i could not have my friends find me in the literal entryway and got up, laid in the shower for like 10 mins then crawled into bed with my friend. thank GOD we both shared the master king at the bottom cause i wouldnt have been able to make it up the stairs.

and yeah. lol.

[gale-gentlepenguin]

-Marinette being strong for her friends to enjoy this dance. Thats really big of her.

-Unfortunately, Spotlight.

-Wait, how did Argos and Kagami get to Paris BEFORE Astrochat? Unless they left much earlier but even then. My bet is Argos made a sentimonster that would warp them places... but that seems like BS.

-KAGAMI KNOWS MARINETTE IS LADYBUG?! Since perfection. Damn.

-KAGAMI TOLD FELIX!?!?!?! FELIX?!?!?! Okay I am a bit salty about that

-OH S***! THEY KISSED. The Feligami stans are Eating today.

-Alya and Nino trying to comfort her. But she aint listening.

-Adrien and Kagami escaped and the parents are pissed

-Oh no Nathalie looks really bad right now. Poor thing. All she can do is watch videos of her true love Emilie

-He took the ring back, guess now that Nathalie is too weak to fight him. Which really brings up the question, WHAT HAPPENED in the last episode that Nathalie took such a turn.

-Gabriel is being a d*** as usual

-Nightormentor sounds like a cool name. And while I thought the color scheme is weird... its probably the best akumatized form Gabriel has taken. Sad but true

-AND OF COURSE RIGHT AS SHE LEAVES ASTROCAT ARRIVES. I know its plot convenience but thats bull s***

-"His father CANT have that much control of him" Oh if only you knew Nino

-And BOOM! Gabriel the bitch agreste arrives

-I am liking Rose so much recently. She is calling out EVERYONE

-So he basically has the powers of Sandboy mixed with Darkerowl

-the guy has the power to make you experience VERY intrusive thoughts. That is evil

-Chat noir is like "Hey ladybug gonna go beat up my father text me later"

-Dude Felix must be an Olympic speed walker

-Marinette is basically being nightormented without that bastard even being here. Felix, Kagami this is just a jerk move.

Duusu: "This is so sad" Felix: "Dont worry its for Our happy ending" Duusu: F*** yea lets keep it up

-Oh he made a sentimonster... wait. I know its not human but like a sentimonster MAKING sentimonsters. Feels even more f***ed up

-THEY ARE DOING A F***ING PLAY FOR HER!?

-OH MY GOSH! ITS THE STORY OF EMILIE AND AMELIE!

-Meanwhile, Chat noir is working through his daddy issues.

-Back to the play

-Oh this is interesting.

-Oh and we find out Felix's dad was a rich Cowboy. But also an asshole. (Oh right, this is a French Cartoon, thats why American's suck in this)

-Back to Adrien fighting his father

-This is Cathartic watching Chat noir beat Gabriel's ASS

-HE WAS GOING TO CATACLYSM HIS DAD! Adrien, my boy. Patricide adrien? Well Monarch is still alive, so I guess you think it wouldnt kill him. BTW, Monarch should have had ptsd from that.

-And Chat noir got hit, so his worst fear is... and cuts back to the play

-Oh the twins were infertile. Emilie returned to try and get medical help but still nothing.

-The peacock, that was the sentimonster reference

-Oh so THATS how Gabriel got Gorilla to guard adrien.

-Also yea, any doubt that they arent sentimonsters is dead now.

-ITS CHAT BLANC WITH BLUE HAIR!?

-Oh s*** that is f***ed up.

-"It will end if you give me your miraculous"

-"Take it." ADRIEN NO!

-Oh so thats why Felix's dad was an a**hole. Okay I will give this credit. That is something.

-Welp this explains why Felix might be a sociopath

-Felix revealing why he did what he did

-THE RESISTANCE! COMING IN CLUTCH

-THE TRAY!

-ALYA JUMPED ON HIS BACK.

-They got the akuma in a jar.

-Wait, Chat noir defeated an akuma without Ladybug. (sure he had outside help, but Ladybug has done that too). Good on him

-WELL S*** THAT WAS TRIPPY.

-Felix and Kagami asked for Marinette's help. so was that all the sentimonster doing so? I am lost

-Okay so, I may not LIKE exactly how they went about it. But I cant really hate them for what they did. They are just kids that want to pick someone they trust.

-Oh s***, Ladybug never cast miraculous cure. So Adrien has some perminant trauma from the fight with Nightormentor. He still sees the antichat visions (its not chat blanc, and its just reverse color pallet)

-Chat noir left. before he could tell her. Cause the nightmare messed with him

-WAIT DID TOMOE AND GABRIEL JUST LOCK THEIR CHILDREN IN STERILE ROOMS? WTF!

_________________________________________________________

Okay! This episode was A LOT.

Well there is no denying Sentimonster theory. Its confirmed. Its done. 100% GUARANTEE NO MONEY BACK.

It did explain a LOT about Felix and Adrien.

So I am still iffy on how it was handled.

Now this DOES NOT justify Felix's Actions. He was still an a**hole. And Kagami shouldnt have told Felix. Marinette is Ladybug. That was NOT her secret to tell.

BUT the play that explained what happened was very well done. It explained a LOT about the Graham de Vanily family and Felix's a**hole father.

I will say that I hated how tortured Marinette was during this. Felix and Kagami could have done something less cruel to lure her there.

I also greatly enjoyed Chat noir vs Nightormentor. very good catharsis and we have Adrien going through some additional mental trauma, inflicted by his father (I wouldnt call it Ironic, more of EXPECTED)

I give it 7.5/10

I will say its the most I have enjoyed the second half of this season since Emotion.

[meiyvsdesire]

II. His Vessel

Reader's POV:

“You what?!”

I couldnt help but yell at the top of my lungs as I stood up from my seat hitting the table with my bare hands after hearing my parents good news.

“This is whats best for the family.”

I scoffed at my mother’s calm comment and looked at my father in disbelief.

“You must be insane to think I’d agree to this.”

I shook my head as I say so. My parents looked at each other for a moment before father raised his head to look at me.

“The agreement has already been settled.”

My mouth gaped open in surprise.

“How…fucking dare you!”

I yelled at my father’s face and because of my language it made my mother stand up from her seat and slap me across the face.

“You are not to speak ill to your father! He is only doing whats best for the family to survive!”

My fists bawled up in anger as I whipped my head to face her.

“Your selling me…to a family of syndicates to survive!”

Father stood up smashing his own fist at the table.

“We are not selling you! We are trying to give you a good life!”

“And you think being married to a family of criminal is gonna give me a good life?!”

He held his tongue for a moment obvious to see that he didnt think this through but wanted to save his own pride and began yelling again.

“Do not question my decision! I did this for you and the family!”

I scoffed hearing that I was part of his decision but tears suddenly started forming in my eyes feeling the lie in in his words that I was ever included in his thoughts.

“No…you did this for the family. You did this for yourself. You never thought about me and how I would feel.” my mouth started to quiver that I could only mumble. “Im always the last person you would think about yet Im your eldest.” a tear strolled down on the left side of my face, the feeling of breaking down in front of them disgust me. Crying is something I always viewed as weak. I didnt want them to see me weak.

I ran out of that room and out the door of the house. No matter how loud they called out to me I never turned back and just kept running until I felt my full emotion kicking in. I started to bawl at the street but I knew dad would send his men to come after me so I hid at the nearest alleyway I could find.

It wasnt long until I heard a bunch of footsteps running around the streets as well. I just knew it was his men judging by their mumbles of splitting up.

I was hiding beside this large dumpster with my hand on my mouth and silently cried the pain in my heart. I never knew my parents could do this to me. I get that the business was dropping but instead of changing the system they chose to give me away instead.

“That’s crazy dude.”

I called Suguru to come pick me up at the dumpster earlier and told him about my parents plan for me. Whats weird is he doesnt seem surprised at all, his reaction seemed so fake.

“Did you know?”

I asked directly and watched him lift the can of beer in his hand. I kept looking at him suspicously and he couldnt help but spit the drink back into the can as he chuckled.

“You fucking knew!? How the fuck did you know?”

I pushed him roughly on the shoulder and he quickly sat back up.

“They…” he stifled a laugh just thinking about it. “I dont know if I should say this but it was hilarious.”

“Fucking tell me already.”

I pushed him again and began hitting him on the shoulder.

“Alright, alright! They sent me a messager which was really scary by the way because guess who they sent me? It was fucking Nanami, crazy right?”

My eyebrows furrowed at his story. Nanami is the head of fathers security, behind this man’s calm and collected aura is a merciless manbeater. His only purpose after being hired is to protect me and got promoted to be the head of security after saving the family from home intruders.

“They thought we had some sort of relationship and of course I cleared everything out with Nanami.”

Suguru took a sip of his beer while I nodded beside him. I could understand why my parents would think that way because Suguru was the only person I could call a close friend. I met him during college, found him smoking a cigar at the campus roofttop where I would always be resting during breaks. I hated the smell of cigar so whenever his up I’d be the one to go down and he just suddenly starts talking to me. His family runs a nightclub busines and his pretty carefree about what he does with his privilage in the club. But behind all that is a chill guy willing to talk deeply about everything in life.

The watch on my wrist started ringing and I looked at the time to see that it was Midnight already. I stood up dusting off the dirt and grass that could have latched on my pants.

“We should head back down, I gotta get some sleep.”

“You busy tomorrow?”

He asked throwing the can of beer on the edge of the hill and I immidietly smacked him at the back of his head.

“Dont ever fucking to that. You might hurt a person or worst, an animal.”

Suguru didnt mind being smacked since I always hit him whenever he’d do something terrible in my eyes.

“First, you didnt want me to smoke near you and now you dont want me littering. Youre so harsh.”

I chuckled while putting on the helmet he bought with him.

“I didnt choose this friendship and you know that.”

“Yeah yeah, atleast be greatful. I approched your little loner ass.” He said putting on his helmet and I hit his helemt hard enough to turn. “Ow! Fuck you.” He raised both of his middle fingers towards my direction.

I chuckled and fixed it by rolling the front back to his face.

“I am though, I really am thankful to be friends so thank you so much for picking me up tonight.”

I smiled genuinely making Suguru scoffed as he turned to his bike and sat on the front keying the engine.

“Whatever. Are you gonna crash at my place?”

I shook my head and opened maps on my phone to show him where he’ll be dropping me off.

“They might think your getting me pregnant so I’ll be staying at this hotel for the night or maybe a week? Depends on my healing.”

Suguru took a look at the route and pressed his fingers to zoom on the hotel.

“You sure you’ll be alright alone? Midnight thoughts are scary things.”

I nodded and held unto his offered arm that helped me get up the bike and sat behind him.

“I’ll be fine, it isnt the most scary thing I fought.”

He chuckle lowly pushing the shades of his helmet down. I pulled mine down as well and wrapped my hands around his waist. Suguru isnt a reckless driver but he likes doing it fast especially down this hill.

“Hold on to me tightly.”

(part iii)

[squeiky]

Go tired of seeing "old hedgehog" designs of sonic and shadow with them just having greyed out quills and decided to do something about it

So yeah qpr sonadow (yeah shadow is 50+ fucking finally. Im considering giving him a cane. An asthetic or an actual one idk. Maybe both?)

Sonic grew his quills out (wanted a kind of longhair rockstar kinda hair thing idk if i achiebed i though. Also still unsure on what he'd wear so i just slapped on his sa2 beach costume and added sandals (and possibly socks).

(Oh and there a scar from the Mephiles blast on his stomach- as well as top surgery scars because of course he had top surgery its sonic)

(Oh and also the "old lady swagger" sonic is just him crossdessing/going lady mode because he always rocks the look )

Shadow styled/shortend his quills and i put him in a nice black collared sweater. He wears glasses because my guy has eye problems

(Btw. Im horrible at telling ppls ages so if they dont feel old then idk what to tell you guys i have no idea what aging is at this point)

Then, instead of simply making old yaoi i ended up getting obbessed (and happy) and started making everyone old

So next up was amy and Blaze. (Silver is here too)

I think theyre a little bit on the younger side of the old yaoi? I did consider the fact that some people age differently (some look older whilst others look younger) so Amy and Silver got the more "youthful-ish" complexion whilst Blaze and Espio got the more older one.

Thoughhh im still working on their design. I can always make older old lady Amy (now that i think about it i should 100% make Amy a granny looking buff woman because i feel like thats beautiful)

Either way amy and Blaze kept their uh.. "hair" short. Amy still wears supergirly clothes and Blaze wears more masculine type clothes nothing else.

Next is espilver

You cant sue me for making Silver a short king menace to society.

Not really much on design so far other than Silver is way more plump (pearshaped) now because life got better, and Espio is taller because what is he if not a tree?

Ask them how they met? It was at bowling. Why bowling? Its because thats less weird then "was investigating the multiple crimes husbando commited and ended up getting said yet-to-be husbando arrested, but after he got out we totally fucked"

Yeah

Oh, and because i couldnt choose, Espio is trans AND intersex! Yeah!

Also Amy is silvers ex (Silver has like.. 2 exes... Possibly more?)

And then theres everyone else who arent a "ship" persay:

So i call this the moreso young adult group with Tails, Charmy, Ray and Cream.

Tails (in college) and Charmy (not in college) obviously hang out and play videogames.

Cream, because when she was little she didnt get invited to fight deadlt monsters, grew up, and decided shes going to fight deadlt monsters. So i tried to make her a cool suit but idk.. it needs reworking cause the whole "secret agent" vibe works! But not the way i like.

Rouge is forever foxynand will continue to be the most attractive woman on planet earth no matter what age. Shes also still a meance to socitey and we will forever love the jewel thief (old) woman.

Knuckles doesnt cut his quills so those shits are LONG hes also old as well but idk what he'd wear

And yes Metal (also Chaos) is here too. Metal is a bit rusty (literally) but overall well kept and fancy. I think eggman would be dead by now, so i gave it a crown on its ears to symbolize how it took over i guess.

OKAY SHIPKIDS:

Blaze x Amy ( bio kid): Flare (was thinking "Spark" because of the love idea but idk yet)

Espio x Silver (bio-kid): Greybell

And then heres the fun part:

So Sonic and Shadow dont function like the others here, in that- while saving the world and whatnot, every so often they'd either find a kid following them (similarly to Amy and Tails back in the days) or save a kid during their whole adventure.

The first time this happened was just Luca (a black jaguar) who followed Sonic during one his little solo adventures and Sonic was like "do you have parents i can take u back too" and she was like "nah" so of course, after seriously looking for her parents through ppl with database accesses like tails and rouge, he was like "u wanna stay with me?" And Luca was like "YEAH!"

And then Sonic called Shadow like "Shadow do u want kids" and which he replied "what?" And then suddenly they adopted Luca. This is how it began.

Eventually, as one grew up, theyd find another, and then another and then well now they have like 11 kids in total.

Now, after ALL of this, they took a break and after that years worth of a break were like "wanna make a kid? Like for the challenge of having to that from scratch"

And sonic was like "what?"

So they hit up the labs and made a bio kid who is 2 months old and is the most hectic fucking thing theyve ever had to deal with so thanks for the prior 10 experinces (alas they do not compare to the mega menace)

[erasawordsmithofsorts]

this is a really long post and you dont have to read it, its more of a word vomit towards the end but its really detailing my experiences with 5sos c: (its kind of sad but it means a lot to me that i finally put this into words)

i love 5sos. like a lot more than i could put into words. i have such a long and extensive history with this band that its just so much, like.

ive been a fan of 5sos since july 15th, 2014. i was 5/6 years old sitting on the front porch of my grandma's house with this girl i was friends with. she showed me some of their songs and i was in love. i didnt stop listening to them for years, they were my everything. idols, best friends, family, everything. and the only reason i stopped listening to them ever is because of some really heavy traumatic events that happened to me when i was 8-10 years old.

fast forward a few years, i start dating this guy. this guy really liked 5sos, he got me back into 5sos. my brain was so traumatized, it blocked out most of my memories with this band, with the fans of this band, etc. and him getting me to listen to their entire discography? yeah that brought them flooding back.

yet i still stayed, with him and the band again. this guy became really toxic. we argued every night, he blatantly ignored my needs, he got mad at me for getting more 5sos streams than him, he made fun of me for only listening to their old stuff. he acted like i hadnt told him, "hey, some really fucked up things happened to me in 2014-2016 and i forgot pretty much everything from those years so i kind of obsess over them"

but me and this guy were ldr, my mom took my phone, i texted him through a friends' phone. he starts cheating on me. i come back, my mom is having heart surgery, and he tells me i have to break up with him. so i do.

i break up with him, i go through the shit, i get pissed off, i get upset, i cry. i cry a LOT. and for a bit i didnt listen to 5sos. and then i get back into 5sos, because im not gonna change who i am at my very core because some idiot guy who was 'there first' made it about him. i'll make it about me again, i will obsess over it, i will go back to being six years old crying on the front porch with my best friend. i will go back to being a kid who didnt know why people didnt like her.

and i did. im back there, im who six year old me dreamed of being. sure, i have my days where the only thing i can do is cry and try not to hurl myself down a flight of stairs, but im still here arent i? ive made it to the age i always dreamed about being, havent i? im still absolutely in love with the same exact bands, the same exact places, the same exact aesthetics.

5sos is why im me, like that is such a beautiful and poetic thing to me. im still here because of a band, im still here because some guys that at the time were across the world gave me some motivation to keep going? of course im gonna love them. of course im gonna advertise the shit out of them. of course im gonna know every detail i possibly can about them.

like, i mean yeah, i took a little break. but i was forced to by my own brain. and even then, what helped me start healing form that trauma? 5sos. what helped me start healing from that breakup? 5sos.

tw for s/h + suicidal stuff under the cut! its nothing bad bad, just mentions attempts and stuff but its talking about getting better :3 tl;dr in bottom of the cut!

its so weird to say that "this guy who doesnt even know i exist, saved my life" but its true sometimes. like i was in such a bad place when i was younger that i couldnt function. yearly, i was being checked into psych wards. they never helped. i tried therapy, i tried medication. nothing worked.

and then 5sos came back into my life and i finally felt whole again. i finally felt like i was me again. i had been self harming since i was in the third grade, and once you cope like that for so long, its really hard to stop.

but i finally made the decision to get clean, i finally said "enough is enough, i dont want to be like this anymore. i wanna live and be healthy, i wanna live and be happy, i wanna wear shorts, i wanna wear skirts, i wanna wear short sleeves and tanks, i want to wear dresses without sleeves that show my thighs a little. and would ashton or luke or michael or calum really want me to do this to myself? no, no they wouldnt, get your shit together era." and so i did? i got it together, i made my life work. i started looking for the good again, i started behaving like a little kid that knew no bounds again, i started acting my age. i started loving me again. and thats powerful? thats metal as fuck.

the app that i use to track my clean streak has a section for "reasons to stay clean" i have pictures of my friends, my animals, and most importantly, the guys that finally inspired me to pick myself up off the floor and put myself back together.

because i did, i really had to scrounge up the broken pieces. i really had to dig deep and try and piece them back together. and it took work, and im still working on it. and even though ive been clean from s/h for three months, the urges are still there and every time theres just that little voice in my head that takes on ashton's that goes "hey dont, its not the right way." and every time i feel like the world is over, like i dont have anything else, it's always just a reminder.

there will be something else, no matter what theres gonna be something else. no matter what, the suns gonna rise again. no matter what, something good will come of all your pain, all your struggles, all your heartbreak, all the tears. the sleepless nights, the trauma, the guilt, the anger, the fear, the sadness, all of it. it means youre human, it means youre alive. it means good things are gonna happen, you just gotta wait for it. you gotta pick yourself up and keep going. keep fighting, keep running, keep walking. hell if you have to, keep crawling. keep crawling while youre crying. dont look back, youre not going that way. think of how far your faves have come, think of how your younger self wants to know what theyre gonna grow up to be. think.

its not over, it will never be over. pain is human, youre human. youre experiencing life as it was meant to be experienced, its okay to have off days.

tl;dr 5sos + me have been together since i was six and ashton irwin has quite literally kept me alive and from destroying myself mentally and physically for nearly ten years. cool beans bro

Ficmas Day Four - Building Snowmen

Word Count: 1,077

AU: Crystalweave

Characters: Micah [OC], The Ninja

"A Snow day?" It was the question that had been bouncing around the room ever since Micah had suggested it.

"Yep! And if I'm being honest, it's the least you guys can do considering you made me sleep through the whole first day of snow." She said, leaning against the doorframe of the living room area, a small laugh leaving her.

"You were up all night, you would've crashed if we hadn't," Cole argued.

"Me? Nah, I've pulled enough all-nighters for that to have been nothing, it's a a walk in the park after a while."

"I don't think you should be proud of that," Jay said, sounding slightly horrified.

"It's fine, besides, I've never seen snow before, and I'm not going to miss my first chance at experiencing it because you all won't join me." With that, she pushed herself off the doorframe and began to make her way towards the entrance of the monastery. However, she did hear the others talking about how they shouldn't waste the weather.

Maybe she would get her way after all she thought, snickering to herself over it as she pulled on her shoes, jacket and gloves that she had finally remembered that owned before slipping out the front door and back into the courtyard.

It was still just as beautiful as it had been the other night, an even thicker blanket of snow now having settled over everything. She couldn't help but fall in love with the sight all over again.

Though her little moment of peace didn't last long before the others came out, a small smile forming on her face as she saw the others trudging into the thick snow. Each of them branching off to do their own thing.

Some just messing around, some throwing snowballs, and some of them making snow angels, or well, whatever they were called here, Micah didn't know all the swapped terms yet on account of the whole 'no god' thing here thing.

Hell, it was still weird having to make sure she didn't slip up with her term usage. Thankfully she hadn't yet though.

But she quickly snapped herself out of her thoughts, taking a final look around before finding herself a small space just close enough to still be able to talk to the others without having to yell, but far enough that she wouldn't be in anyone's way.

And with a playful crack of her knuckles, she got to work. Though she did have to admit that it was strange, the way the snow packed down on itself to keep a shape that was. She hated that it took her a minute to actually figure out how to condense it down so that way it didn't crumble on her immediately when ever she tried to move it, but she got the hang of it eventually.

And, before she knew it, she had a snowball and a rather large one at that, then another smaller one, then a smaller one again, all of which that she stacked on top of one another to form the base of a snowman, one she couldnt really decorate on account of not having anything to do so with, but it was her first snowman nonetheless.

Though she had to try and force herself to ignore the feeling of being alone that rose in her chest.

"Hey Micah, you ok?" Someone asked, though going off of the sound of their voice alone, she knew it was Nya.

"Yeah, I'm ok, just… Why you asking?"

"You just, you look upset, did something happen?" Damn that care, she loved how understanding everyone was for the most part, a kind of care that she knew would only grow with time as they became more of a family.

It made her miss her own even more.

"Yeah, just thinking about my brother is all… He would've loved this."

"You have a brother?" Jay called out, causing Micah's head to snap over to look at the other. Though the rest of the team was all looking at her too. It was a look she knew too damn well. They wanted her to tell them, and she knew she wasn't getting out of it. So to hell with it she guessed.

"Yeah, Ethan, he was my older brother."

"Was?" Nya asked, raising a brow.

Damnit, she shouldn't have said it like that.

Though 'was' technically was true, she wasn't ever going to see him again after all.

"What happened?" Nya continued, gently trying to pry for information.

"Uh, oh, nothing I really want to go into right now if I'm being honest, but long story short… I won't be seeing him anytime soon." Micah muttered, unable to bring herself to look at the others, she knew they all meant well, but even now, just thinking about it all hurt.

But she could tell they were upset for her, and it was moments like this where she wasn't so mad about how her situation had ended up. She knew she'd never see Ethan again, but she also wasn't alone, she had people around her who cared about her and could be her family, even if there was no blood relation between nearly all of them.

It was one of the good things about this second life, this second her.

She just wished that one day she could tell them all who the real her was, not that it would ever come she guessed.

She could only hope she'd get the chance one day.

But with the cold being a force that wasn't going to be letting up anytime soon and not the warmth that home was known for, Micah's little snowman managed to stand tall for longer than she ever had expected it to. And while every time she saw it she thought of Ethan, she couldn't help but smile.

She only had her memories of him left, and knowing they were still with her, that they were all she had to keep him alive in a world so distant from her own did hurt a little. She just hoped that her brother finished up uni and went on the trip he'd always dreamed of as his big reward for surviving it all.

If she couldn't be there with him, all she could do was hope he got everything he wanted and more, he'd done so much to help her, the least she could do was a little manifesting in return.

the weird Yuuniverse concept tuu(?)

🐱

So I'm debating whether or not to make it another great 7 Yuu or not, but basically,

Yuu if following the plot of NRC and stuff blah blah blah. They eventually however meet someone in the Mirror, Yuuya (the first Canon yuu). Yuuya seeks to guide Yuu and help them along their journey through twst. As stuff unfolds, Yuuya tells them the truth. They are in a time loop that will either end in Death or Failure, usually both. Yuuya tells them of the past Yuus, Yuuken, Yuuka and how they succumbed to their demises against the overblots and such.

Yuuya was one of the first Yuus, and they were one of the few that actually defeated malleus, sort of, they are one of the few yuus that can reset the loop. After each painful death Yuuya started losing it

They've saved everyone, they hurt everyone, they read every book and burned them, they fell in love, they destroyed. For every loop they brought peace there was one wrought with death. But even when they finally got the best possible ending, they lost. They don't remember how though, in fact whatever they went through was so horrible they begged the very first Yuu to exist to delete their memory of their death along with wiping everyones memory of them.

There in only one other Yuu that had the ability to manipulate timelines, Tuu. And they too fell into the murderous experimentation that is looping

They were the very first Yuu to ever exist. They have died to everything and had to constantly relive their deaths to perfect their times lines

They beat the blots when they were the most powerful- the beginning of the timeline, as they absorbed the excess blot/hatred off of them throughout their loops, leaving everyone with the more tame Blots of the canon.

This however made them into a monster of sorts, and stripped away everything from them. After all they came to TWST when they were a child, but they kept aging through each loop. It took away everything from them, their body as it was now made of ink, their life, their friends. Everything. They gave everyone a good ending, and get couldnt get one themselves.

And even in the end it was for nothing, because it looped again and chose another Yuu instead since there was nothing left of the original.

However not every Yuu can loop, only a select few, the main character Yuu being one of them

As Yuuya says they are rooting for them; saying they hope they free everyone, Tuu reminds them to reconsider

If you stop it then what? The students have lost years of their lives already. It doesn't bring back any of the Yuus that died for nothing, it just damns them into oblivion, breaking the loop now just created another one.

But our Yuu has power. Why not use that to bring back the others? To reign Supreme over twisted wonderland

Yuu doesn't get it, they say they are stopping the loop, they want to go home! Plus it's not like their friends will remember them anyways since they forgot all of the previous yuus, they made peace with that long ago!

"Home? Tell me Yuu, where is home?" Yuu panics as the realize all of their memories of the past seem blank, they cannot seem to even remember a blink of their childhood as it was blurry.

"I am telling you this now not because I care, but because you have done this before. We have had this conversation many times. Every time you say you can change the future it leads you right back here to us, isn't that right Yuuya?"

Yuuya frowns and nods

"Wait I've been looping this entire time without remembering and you never told me?!"

The original yuu let's out a hoarse laugh. "Yes. You see why I say instead to destroy the world entirely rather than keep up this damn horror story? You would rather let the Yuus here rot and wallow in misery than end their suffering"

"I don't like how angry you are. You're just saying that because you're upset about your ending! I'm trying to make my own!"

"Oh yuu, I already know how your ending goes" the original yuu seems to pause, and the ink that consumes their body pulls back as Yuu sees their own face reflected back at them.

"No..."

"Yuu, you become me. I have had this conversation with you, with myself, hundreds of times now, no matter what we do, it always results in me. Don't you get it? Your memories are blank because you never had a life, a childhood. You've been stuck in this loop trying to save yourself over and over. They took everything from us. Our life, our home, our family, our body!" Tuu gestures the ink that consumes them. "I saved everyone! Turned them into their best selves, they turned us into this! Left us to rot! Look at us! Do you seriously want to continue living like this?"

Rating members of the ADA based on nothing but my own vibes (I haven't seen all of season 3)

I'll post a part 2 with the port mafia and a part 3 with the guild

Dazai Osamu

8/10 for looks. 4/10 for the chuuya abuse. 6/10 for the fact everytime i hear his english voice it reminds me of hendrickson from SDS bc that is the VA. overall 7/10 character but I would not wanna be his friend in real life. follow his instagram at most.

Kunikida Doppo

Y'ALL ALREADY KNOW hotness 10/10, 6/10 for the possible terrorist backstory that would be oh so fantastic character building, 8/10 for the fact i ALSO happen to be overly obsessed with my own schedule, 4/10 for the fact someone called his hair a deceased pikachu wig and I laughed, 7/10 for the fact his english VA is Griamore from sds and that was weird for a few scenes. OVERALL 9/10 solid gold good man deserves a white picket dream (the remaining 1/10 is for the fact they couldnt help themselves with his spiky hair sticking out, so now it is effectively a mullet instead of just long hair)

Rampo Edogawa

7/10 on looks in general i have no strong opinions about his ensemble except that he looks like a lil detective and the IRL Rampo wrote "Boy Detectives Club" and i think its adorable. 8/10 for the fact his brain is awesome and the cockiness. 7/10 for the rivalry with poe because i like it but i havent seen enough of it to be super into their thing yet overall 7/10 I dont have much to say hes just a good boy

Yosano Akiko

5/10 for the design im sorry i hate that the skirt is that low she can have a long skirt but it looks way awk at the hips though that may just be because the skirt goes out instead of just downward like a maxi. the gold hair clip is good i like it. 9/10 for the way she snatched that mans hand and almost took it off, 7/10 for the scenes that make this anime look way sus to my parents (YOU KNOW WHICH ONES I MEAN!) overall 8/10 for everything except that damn skirt

Kenji Miyazawa

Team baby!! 10/10 for team baby and YES hes the team baby even though kyouka is ALSO the team baby but i'll get to that. 8/10 for being Finny from Black Butler without my issues from black butler. 7/10 for his morals on cows. 8/10 for his everything about his personality. im not rating on attractiveness bc he is fourteen >:1 idk why i wasted y'alls time explaining hes 10/10 for team baby

Kyouka Izumi

Ok she was going to be the team baby but then i reevaluated and decided no shes just ATSUSHI'S BABY. 8/10 for how adorable her jellyfish cut is. 10/10 for sad backstory. 6/10 for the fact people ship her with atsushi and the show seems to lean that way as well (I was so happy when Lucy arrived for this reason). 7/10 overall for second team baby

Atsushi Nakajima

6/10 for the fact my phone always autocorrects him to At Sushi. 7/10 for that haircut. 10/10 for awful father figure. 9/10 for the headcannon about his parents engaging in cannibalism that sounded so in-line with the show i thought it was real and not a headcannon. I'm sorry 6/10 for the fact the va uses the same voice for atsushi that he uses for Harlequin in SDS and it trips me up. 8/10 for the fact his eyes cant decide what color to be. 7/10 for the fact it feels weird to see smut with him in it because he is also, effectively, team baby.

These two

This poor guy got NERFED by his own story bro this author wasn't into all this.... sister stuff... but apparently his book character was! Gimme a minute to yak anyways designs are 7/10 pretty basic but do their job effectively and Naomi's appearance actually supports the headcannon shes not real and shes just a product of his ability which i like. The sibling... "relationship" gets 0/10 for EW but kunikida gets 10/10 for telling atsushi to ignore it but then still yelling at them after he gets 7/10 for his general personality, honestly if his devotion to his sister wasnt related to the weird incest stuff i would find it a really great plot device (being devoted to protecting and taking care of your only family left) overall naomi gets 6/10 for being okay and looking properly suited for her environment unless shes around Junchiro Junchiro gets 8/10 for having a sick matrix ability and looking basic but not boring

Fukuzawa Yukichi

GOOD OL' CAT LOVING GRANDPA HIMSELF. 3/10 for the fact he knows mori, 10/10 for how he looks after everyone. also 7/10 for the fact im realizing how kunikidas hairstyle might be because he is COPYING FUKUZAWA... anyways. I don't personally find him all that attractive but to be fair he doesn't show up a lot? 8/10 for being a badass. 9/10 because I feel sad that he didnt get to pet the kitty in Wan. Overall, 8/10

Pt 2 will go here Pt 3 will go here pt 4 is here

THE OUTSIDERS

012 | the prophecy comes true

previous chapter | next chapter | masterlist

Summary: the one where daisy returns to camp from college and is blinded by her love for him, even as the world ends

Wordcount: 3.4k

The deadline was yesterday. The camp was preparing to go to war and they knew that it was coming. The clouds were starting to circle over New York, spreading across the country.

"Annabeth and Grover are back!" Travis yelled into the cabin before he ran into the next one, spreading the news.

Daisy looked up at him. She had been laying on Lukes bunk, her head in his lap as they prepared for the war.

The rest of the Hermes cabin rushed out to go and greet them and she climbed off of the bed, turning to Luke with a huge smile on her face.

He grabbed her wrist before she could leave and she looked at him confused, "I have something to tell you," he seemed nervous

"Can we talk later? Annabeth just got home," she said, the smile on her face faltering a little bit. This seemed serious.

"Annabeth and Percy think Clarisse is the lightning theif. They asked me to tell Chiron but because of the fighting I couldn't tell anyone," he explained rapidly, that nervous persona of his coming out.

She stood there in silence, pulling her arm away from his grip. She could not remember a time where he had kept such a big thing from her.

"You've known for a week and a half?" She questioned.

"Yes. And I know I should've told you, but its been hard. I didn't want her to find out," he explained.

As he told her that, it made sense. The more people that knew, the more chance they would find out.

Clarisse stole the lighting bolt. She had planned all of this and she was the one that was starting the fights. It all made so much sense as he explained it.

"Okay, I get that. But you still could've told me," she said, brows still furrowed.

"I know. I'm sorry baby," he took a stel forward, brushing a piece of hair out of her face before pressing a kiss to her lips, "Lets just go see the others,"

They followed the other campers to the middle where they saw Annabeth standing there with Grover.

Luke hugged her first and she melted into his touch. Then he placed a hand on Grovers shoulder, squeezing it tight.

"Where is Percy?" Daisy asked as she hugged Annabeth and then Grover.

"He's gone to Mount Olympus, to give Zeus the bolt back," Annabeth explained.

She seemed relieved to be back. It was nice to see her again, it looked like she had changed so much since they last saw her.

Annabeth looked over Daisys shoulder and thats when she saw Clarisse standing there, "Why is she here?"

"Long story, I'll explain it later," Luke said and Daisys face fell, "For now, rest,"

The next day, Percy came into camp. Everyone was cheering for him, glad that he had come back and that the war had been called off between the Gods.

Daisy didn't know why there was this sinking feeling in her chest that something was going to go wrong.

Amnabeth hugged him and Percy looked truly happy.

"Hey kiddo," Daisy said, pulling the kid in for a hug.

He held on tight. He had lost his mother and he didn't know when she would come back. This camp could be his home forever now. 

When he spotted Clarisse, Annabeth pulled Percy into the empty Hermes cabin along with Luke and Daisy.

"She stole the lightning bolt. Why I she still here?" He asked, clearly confused.

"Everyone was ready to join the war here, start fighting each other," Luke explained, "An accusation against Clarisse without proof would've destroyed it all,"

"I would have told Chrion but uh, I only found out yesterday," she said, a bitter tone to her voice, "Still mad at you Luke about that,"

Percy looked at the couple. He had never seen them fighting before and he didn't like it. Something felt weird about it.

"Im sorry honey, I couldnt let anyone else know," he said, an arm wrapping around her shoulder before he turned to the boy, "Now Percy is back, you stopped the war. It'd safe to tell Chiron,"

There was silence within the group as they all realised that the lighting theif was going to be caught.

Daisy smiled up at Luke but something felt off and she didn't know what it was. It had been there since yesterday when Annabeth came home and then again when Chiron announced the war was over. 

"Chiron is meeting us in the woods where we can talk without any of Clarisses supporters watching," Luke explained.

"Me and Annabeth will keep an eye on Clarisse. She won't go anywhere,"

"Great," places hand on her shoulder, "Then we will meet back here,"

Later that night, she stood in the doorway of the Hermes cabin, watching the fireworks go off. This was the most important night of their lives, they couldn't ruin this.

She leaned against the doorframe, Lukes hand on her hips. He was looking at her like he was never going to see her again.

"If something goes wrong-" he started to say.

She cut him off, brows furrowed, "Nothing will go wrong, its all gonna be fine. Then you can start building that house," she said, leaning up to look at him

"I've already started. Got materials and everything," he said, a smile on his face.

There was conflict in Lukes eyes that she didnt recognise. Maybe he was just worried about the mission.

There was silence and he looked at her, tracing the curves of her face, the way that the fireworks lit up her eyes. He knew that this could be the end for them but she did not know that yet.

"But if something happens I want you to know that I love you and I always will. And I will keep fighting for you no matter what," he promised, "I will always come back for you,"

She could see tears on his waterline and  she reached a hand up, brushing it against his cheeks. He leaned into her touch, eyes fluttering closed.

"Is everything okay?" She asked.

"Of course baby," he promised, kissing her.

The kiss devolved quickly and it became messy, her hands buried in his hair, him pulling her into his arms she she was pressed up completely against him.

She didn't know it was going to be a goodbye kiss. That this was the last time she may ever feel Lukes lips against hers.

She just relished in it, forehead falling on his when the kiss finished. He pressed one more chaste kiss to her lips before he muttered one more 'I love you' before walking away.

Daisy watched him walk away, a sinking feeling in her stomach. Her hand came up to her lips and she started to walk out of the room where she found Annabeth watching Clarisse.

They must have been sitting there for fifteen minutes, watching the daughter of Ares and chatting about what Annabeth got up to on the quest when Daisy felt that pulling in her chest again.

"Somethings wrong," she said.

Annabeth turned to her, brows furrowed, "What do you mean?"

"There's this bad feeling in my gut, like something is going to go wrong," she said, thinking about what Luke said about him not coming back, "You should check on them, make sure nobody's watching,"

Annabeth agreed and she put on her hat, turning invisible as she went to go see what Luke and Percy were up to. 

Luke and Percy walked through the woods and Luke noted that the latter had been silent since he had gotten back to camp.

"You thinking about your mum? I get that, believe me, I do," he said, shaking his head, "But prophecies, they're so vague,"

"The quest is over and everything makes sense bu-" he started to say when Luke cut him off.

"Has it?" He questioned, an almost ominous tone to his voice.

Percy looked at his friend, confused. He didn't know why Luke wanted to know so much about it now. He watched as Luke put down the lantern before he started to recount the prophecy.

"You shall go west and face the god that has turned," he said.

Luke nodded his head, saying that that one made perfect sense. It was obviously Ares.

Percy felt it too, that confusion in his chest, "Find what was stolen and see it returned,"

"Clearly the bolt," Luke said, folding his arms over his chest.

"And you shall be betrayed by one who calls you a friend," that's when the penny dropped and Percy realised why it was just him here, "The reason clarisse is still here is because, you never said anything to Chiron about her. That's why you didn't tell Daisy,"

Percy looked at the older boy who he had thought was his friend and Luke didn't even blink. He knew he had been caught out.

"You knew Clarisse didn't steal the bolt," he said, shaking his head as he looked at him, "You did,"

There was silence. It was almost like Luke was not ready to admit to it yet.

Percy felt awful. He couldn't imagine that someone so kind would do something so awful. Them he started to think about Daisy and how heartbroken she would be when she would find out. 

"You worked with Ares. So when the shoes you gave me dragged me into Tartarus, the bolt would go straight to Kronos," he explained, furious now

"I didn't think you'd give them to Grover to wear," he said, basically conforming it.

When he recieved verbal confirmation, Percy felt his heart sink in his chest. This had all been a lie, Chiron was not coming to help them.

"I am your friend Percy, none of this was meant to betray you. The Gods are my enemy. You, I'm here to recruit," he explained.

"Recruit?" He asked, scoffing at the end.

Luke pulled out his sword and so did Percy defensively. Luke was the beat swordsman in 300 years and Percy knew he couldn't beat him but he was going to try.

"I don't want to fight. This is what I wanted to show you, it's our way out," he explained, holding his hands up in surrender.

Percys head was spinning in confusion, "Way out of what?"

Luke slashes the wall once and then a small portal opened. Percy looked at it, half in shock and half in amazement.

"Out of camp. Once we are settled I will come back for Daisy, for Annabeth," he explained, "They will join us. Backbiter allows me to open doors, we can stay on the run for as long as it takes. The four of us,"

"Stop saying we," he said, sword faltering a little bit in his hands.

"The Gods want us to fight for them, worship them. They couldn't care what we want. They're bad parents and they've gotten away with it for too long," he explained.

"This isn't you. Kronos has gotten in your head," Percy tried to reason with him. He pulled out the final stop, "What will Daisy say?"

"He opened my eyes to the truth," he smiled to himself, this didnt even faze him, "And Daisy will see it too once I explain it to her. She's always understood me,"

He turned around and cut the stone again and the portal opened up a little bit more

"Stealing the bolt and the helm was easy but for what comes next, we'll need all the help we can get," he explained.

He went to cut the final portal opening and Percy didn't even hesitate before he knocked his sword away

Luke turned to him shocked. He had believed that Percy would change his mind and would join him. They could all be happy together.

Percy tried to reason with him "Our parents aren't perfect but they're trying ur best. I met your da-"

That was the final straw. The second he mentioned his father, Luke let out a guttural yell before hitting the sword against Percys, the sound ricocheted through the clearing.

They fought for a little bit and Luke smirked, "You've gotten better,"

As he turned, he hit the wall again and the final cut went through. The portal opened and then Luke held his sword up towards Percy.

"Last chance," he said, hoping he would take it.

Percy didn't even consider the offer before he slammed his sword down onto Lukes, the metals clashing together.

They kept fighting, Luke jabbing at him and nearly knocking him into a portal again.

When Percy saw that he was weakened, he took a step forward and sliced his sword in an arc, cutting a line across Lukes Chest.

He stumbled back, clutching onto his chest. His eyes were squeezed tight as he realised what had happened. Percy had made his choice now

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," he apologised like it was second nature. He didnt want to hurt him, even if he had betrayed him.

Luke wasn't the same. He saw Percys vulnerability and he took advantage, swinging his sword and cutting his arm.

Percy fell to the ground, his sword clattering to the floor. He looked up at Luke, a look in eyes thay he had never seen before. It was like he wasnt the same boy as before.

A necklace he didnt recognise came out of the inside of his shirt, dangling on his chest. Percy squinted his eyes, noticing that it was Daisy's name in Greek letters and his heart sank in his chest. What would she do when she found out?

Luke hovered over him, ready to deal the final blow when his sword was knocked slightly by a dagger hitting it.

Both boys turned to see where it was coming from and Annabeth stood there, eyes wide.

"Annabeth," he muttered, tears pooling in his eyes. This was not how it was supposed to go.

"I heard everything," she said, heartbroken.

Luke realised that he had lost both Annabeth and Percy. It was going to be harder to recruit Daisy now. He took his chance and ran through the portal and they could only watch as it closed behind him

Back in camp, Daisy knew something was wrong when she lost Clarisse. Nobody had come back so she went to the Big House to find Mr D.

She turned the corner and stood outside the Big House and thats when she saw the centaur, "Chiron, what are you doing here?"

"What do you mean child?" He asked, noticing the worried tone of his voice.

"You were supposed to meet with Percy and Luke abou-" She started to explain and that's when she heard someone running towards them.

Annabeth was running over, tears in her eyes as she looked at Daisy. Percy ran up, a little bit behind her, sword in hand.

Daisy ran up to her, a hand on the girls shoulder, "I lost Clarisse," she said, worried. Thats when she noticed who wasnt with them, "Where's Luke? Is he okay?"

Annabeth and Percy shared a look and Chiron ushered the group into the Big House main room.

"He's gone," Annabeth said as they walked through the doorway.

She froze, heart pounding in her chest. None of this made any sense. Where had he gone? She could only think of the worst things that could ever happen.

"What? What the hell do you mean?" She asked, panic obvious in her eyes.

"He made a portal with his sword and he fled," Percy explained, "That was after he confessed to being the lightning theif,"

Daisy couldn't handle it all, she could feel all of her nerves bubbling up into her chest, the spot burning. Her hand fell over her heart, trying to get it to slow down a little bit.

Percy grabbed a chair, pulling it up and ushering her to sit down, "You're lying," she spat out, looking at them, "You're lying to me," she turned to Annabeth, the girl standing there with tears in her eyes, "What really happened?"

Percy answered for her, "He tried to recruit me. He said he would come back for you and Annabeth one day. Then when I refused, he tried to kill me,"

When she saw the cuts on his arms, she grabbed his hand gently, pulling him closer as she examined the deep wounds.

"Did he do this to you?" She asked, her voice timid.

When she saw him nod his head, it all became real. They weren't lying, the love of her life had really turned on them. He had been lying to her for the last 6 months.

Suddenly, Daisy felt her chest constricting. She clutched her shirt, trying to stop the pains in her heart.

Percy noticed it instantly. All of this information was hitting her at once and she was having a panic attack

"I can't breath, I can-" She started to hyperventilate, her eyes locked with Annabeths.

This little girl had lost everything and now she had lost Luke too. Everything they thought was real was fake.

Percy rubbed her back, "It will be okay," he muttered. He looked up at Annabeth. At least they knew she wasn't on his team.

When Daisy caught her breath, she thanked Percy before looking over at the little girl that she saw as family.

"I'm sorry for calling you a liar Annabeth," she said, standing up and walking over on shaky legs to the little girl.

She pulled her in for a hug and Annabeth held her tight, "I wouldn't have believed it if I wouldn't have heard it myself,"

When she pulled away, she looked at the group, "I knew something was wrong yesterday," she shook her head, hands shaking. She was in shock, "I should have known earlier, I should have stopped him,"

"I don't think you could have done anything about it Desdemona. For now, you should all rest," Chiron said.

He started to walk into the other room but before he did, he turned back and looked at the group.

"I shall call the Olympians and tell them about the news," she felt sick to her stomach. They were going to kill Luke when they had the chance.

When he left, Daisy looked at the door, "I have to find him,"

"We don't know where that portal leads," Annabeth explained.

"Fuck!" Daisy yelled out.

All of that upset and betrayal had changed into anger and as she looked down, she saw the charm he had given to her only a few days ago.

She couldn't stand to look at it. She ripped the necklace off of her neck, her camp beads clattering onto the table. Percy looked at the little metal circle, his initials carved into it.

For the first time since she found out, the tears welled up in her eyes. She looked at the charm, remembering what he had said to her that day.

"He promised to marry me. He promised me everything I've ever wanted and then he took it all away," She said, a tear slipping past her eyes. She was so tired.

"Im sorry," annabeth said and Daisy looked up at her

"Oh god Annabeth, I haven't even stopped to think-" she looked at her, tears spilling over now, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry he did this to all of us,"

She felt selfish. Like she had been so focused on her own issues that she forgot that other people had trusted Luke and that he had let them down too.

"I feel sick," She said, a hand coming down to her stomach. She took a deep breath, trying to hold it all in.

Annabeth and Percy shared a look, thinking the same thing "You should really sit down Daisy,"

"I'm good, I just, I need fresh air," she said, stumbling out to the railing.

She took a second, staring up at the stars. He was out there somewhere and she was going to find him and she was going to make him pay. She was going to bring him home.

She needed him to tell her why he did it. She needed to hear it from him.

Percy and Annabeth were right by her side as she threw up into the bushes outside of the Big House, the young girl rubbing her back as Percy held her hair back.

The teenagers shared a look. This had changed all of their lives and it had changed the world.
