#i just thought it'd be cute if they did brother activities together

[feelindrawy]

Poor Arthur, he could've SWORN this fishing spot had been teeming with bass the day before... clearly bluegill wasn't what he had in mind.

[suugrbunz]

hi! I’d like a band of brothers ship please

Looks: I have light brown/blonde layered hair that goes to about my shoulders with some outgrown curtain bangs. Green eyes and some freckles. I’m a bit on the taller side at about 5’8. I have a thin, athletic build.

Personality: I’m very smart, but sometimes I get insecure and doubt my abilities. I can be smart-mouthed and a little mean sometimes. I have trouble recognizing when I say something that could be seen as rude. I’m an ENTP-T and a Ravenclaw (if that matters) I have a sarcastic sense of humor and I can be dark sometimes. I can get anxious and overstimulated easily. I am also disorganized and I’m always losing/misplacing something. I’m extroverted only when approached first otherwise I won’t talk at all. I’m pretty obedient and thrive off praise and academic validation. I love books and horses. I have been riding for almost 2 years and I love it! I’ve made so many friends and it’s just amazing. Besides horse riding, I like tennis and volleyball. So, I’m a pretty active person. Some other stuff is I am impatient and good with kids. My patience comes back when i’m with kids. I’m kind of secretive and bottle up my emotions. uhh yeah so i hope this is enough! Thank you💗💗

꒰ I ship you with . . . Richard Winters ৎ୭ ꒱

You met through a mutual friend ... The friend thought you two would be good friends. You were good friends. Now you're good lover + besties. Seems like a good deal, don't you think?

Old fashioned diner. It's perfect for him. Plus, they always look so cute <33 (like you).

You two went to a fair for a date, it was the perfect summer date. He the sign for the fair a few days earlier, he knew it'd be perfect. Though, he hadn't planned a kiss. Nor did you. You're both a bit shy from time to time.

Your song; I Will by The Beatles

I hope you have a boyfriend/husband safe horse because he definitely enjoys trail rides with you. I imagine you have him try riding for the fun of it. Except, he begins to really enjoy it. So, he asks to do more things over time.

You two definitely own a farm one day

May not give you the most academic validation but he will give you words of affirmation in general. He will make sure you understand you're good enough the way you are. (Because you are; A grade ≠ your value in this world babes.)

he probably will play tennis and volleyball as well, if you want. I know his mum's family is Amish, right? Well, Amish play volleyball like... A lot. So he might have played volleyball growing up 🤷‍♀️

You two are active together but you also take time to rest. He enjoys finding new movies for you two to watch. Plus, you two get to cuddle whilst watching the movie.

How they are when you're picking fights with people.

Shuji, Ran, Emma, Haruki, Taiju, Manjiro, Souya, and Kazutora

❀Shuji❀

There are some days when he's having fun with it and even accuses the people of offending you because it's not every day that he gets to cause mayhem with you. It’s like you’re a duo, you point someone out and he fucks up their evening. If he's having a nice time doing a certain activity with you, he isn't going to let the moment be tainted with chaos because not every memory needs it attached.

❀Ran❀

At first, he didn't care because he thought it was a one-time thing where you were just feeling like a shit starter, but after a couple more fights he let you know that he isn't doing it again, so if you start something make sure you can end it. Just because he knows how to fight doesn't mean he wants to do it all the time. He wants most of your time together to be things that don't remind him of work, but since you enjoy watching him fight he’ll bring you to some of the battles.

❀Emma❀

She thinks you got her mistaken with her brother because she doesn't and cannot fight for you in the way that you think. Maybe you got confused by her simply telling you the things that her brothers did and assumed that she had a bit of strength hidden somewhere but that's not the case. She's crying for help when she sees the group of people kicking you around because you wanted to start a fight over nothing, it’s traumatizing. When you're in the hospital getting fixed up she begs you through tears not to pull a stunt like that again because it was scary to think you could die over something so foolish.

❀Haruki❀

Why are you like this? Are you bored at home? He’ll give you money to entertain yourself but only if you promise that you won't do something so stupid like putting your life in danger. It's unfair for you to be so careless like he isn't going to feel guilty when he doesn't make it in time one of these days and finds you dead somewhere. Why can't you just find a hobby like, I don't know, pickling; and be safe? He needs to know what you're gaining from these violent encounters, tell him what's so thrilling about random people harming you so it can be created in a safe environment.

❀Taiju❀

He thinks telling you about his past was the worst decision he's made and it shows in his irked expression when he's getting a call about how you're going to be injured if he doesn't comply with some randoms, it shows when he's clearing them out in a flash and snatching you up to put you in a car, not asking if your okay but spending the ride berating you. He's put that shit in the past because he wanted to focus on doing other things and you're ruining that for him. You could get your shit together or find someone who enjoys your little games.

❀Manjiro❀

If the leader of a gang is going around beating up someone's members, there's going to be retaliation and lives could be lost over something so petty. His members aren't all strong like the executives so people are being hospitalized because you thought it'd be cute to play the role of a damsel in distress. The relationship is over because you're too careless and it makes him look bad because he's thinking he's doing something right by you, but then you say it was for funsies and now everyone's questioning his decisions.

❀Souya❀

He goes all out for you the first time it happens but when he discovers you doing it on purpose he tells you it's not funny, nor is it cute for you to have him think you're in danger over something that he did. It's not an activity you should hold on to. If you do it again he won't be there to help, but he’ll break up with you after because he doesn't like that you're getting too comfortable with his lifestyle. It's one thing to not care that he's in a gang and another to do shit that affects him because he will get punished if Manjiro catches onto your schemes.

❀Kazutora❀

He loves it and sees it more as him proving his love for you, it's unhealthy but both of you are happy so it's ignored. But don't get upset when he starts doing stuff for the sake of your love, like hurting someone close to you because they upset you and he thinks they believe they can get away with it. It doesn't make sense for you to be mad when he's only doing what you're okay with, you never said family and friends were off limits. It gets to the point where he's going off the things that he assumes will offend you because again, you love it when he proves his loyalty with violence. He wants you to see that he wouldn't hesitate to defend or protect you from anyone.

[elsecrytt]

If you still do sandwiches, can you do an asmo x reader x belphie? I think it’s an interesting group

All right! Not my best characters, so this might be shorter than the others, but let's see how it goes! :D

-

So my first thoughts are that they're both reasonably chill in terms of jealousy and spending time with you (at least, compared to others).

Asmo seems to want your attention for himself, but he never gets possessive the way many of the others are.

He will pop in and ask you to spend time with him often, and he's certainly got lessons to learn about personal space, but he doesn't barge in like Mammon or made demands like Lucifer. He'll ask.

Belphie has his moments, for sure, but a lot of the time he's very patient. Most of his 'sharing' is intended for Beel, but he actually gets along with all his other brothers pretty well, too.

The two might have some of the least interactions in the game, but they're surprisingly fond of one another. Asmo finds his littlest brother pretty endearing, after all! And I suspect Belphie appreciates Asmo being so openly affectionate - he's got streaks of that, himself.

Belphie's 100% lazy so any date where you like, go out, is probably going to be Asmo alone. However, for in-house visits? Spa days? Painting nails, skincare routines, makeup/dress up time?

It'd surprise you how willing Belphie is to go along with Asmo's fun; he's pretty fond of him! And Asmo has a number of activities that can be done with little effort on Belphie's part.

Asmo probably looooves spoiling the both of you. His cute little brother and his dearest lover~ Definitely plays dress-up and tries to coordinate outfits.

("It's okay if you don't want to go out, Belphie! Don't you wanna get pictures of all of us together? This is going to look soo nice on my Devilgram~"

"...Hm. Whatever you want."

"OhhhhhHHh stay on their lap just like that! You two look so cuuuute!"

And isn't it lucky for Belphie that his bangs hide the flush on his face from his brother's praise?

And yeah, maybe... just maybe... if Asmo gives him those pleading eyes, while you ask him softly, Belphie can help get angles on you and Asmo, too, and pose for pictures with all three of you...

"I love you soooo much!! You're my cutest little brother!"

"You only have two little brothers, you know."

"Well, Beel has more of that ripped, muscular appeal! You're definitely the cutest! Thank youuuu~"

Even you think he's the cutest little brother, the way he pretends he's not putting any effort into making these shots just as nice as Asmo did with you and him.)

They get along well, and not even in an artificial way, or a "I'm going to be nicer to you bc someone I love is super attached". Asmo will still complain about Belphie being lazy and Belphie will totally throw shade back at Asmo in retaliation XD

You know there's no hard feelings at all, and it's nice bc Belphie won't hesitate to bitch about Asmo butting in when you're spending time with him, and Asmo will whine to Belphie's face, too.

They're kinda 'mean' about it but without any real malice and no hurt feelings either way; they're being honest.

The fact that Asmo gets you all to himself when he goes out? And Belphie gets you all to himself when you don't feel like going out? Happy coincidence~

As for NSFW...

OKAY SO. There's this one song. "Bitchboy",,, I saw one piece of Belphie art on twitter with a caption from that song and now all I can only think of it in relation to Belphie.

Belphie will be your bitchboy and Asmo will be your good boy :)

Asmo would probably be more interested in starting threesomes but if Belphie were in the mood, and he saw an opportunity to get sexual with you? And if Asmo were there/weren't ruining the moment? He's cool~

Hope you like whores because these two are absolutely like that in bed. Asmo has been ready and eager since day one to seduce you in bed and he's got all the confidence in his body.

He's not above trying to con Belphie into planning an advance strike, either. If he can come up with something good (and that doesn't require much effort on Belphie's part), he'd probably be down!

Asmo will show some skin. He will show some more skin. You'll ask him if he wants to take a bath. He'll tell you only if you're getting in too -

Belphie will get things going though. He prefers you laying on your back, so he can just lie on his belly between your legs and kiss away at your arousal, get you however worked up or stretched out you need to be for what comes next.

Asmo will litter kisses all over you, nip and suck and leave all sorts of marks that has Belphie humming in jealousy, stirring you up even more.

It's not actually so hard to satisfy them, either; Belphie will nudge his erection against any part of your and whine and rut himself to completion if you don't jerk him. Asmo will either take you or even jerk himself off in front of you, if you're not in the mood to take him in your mouth.

Each one is easily pleased, and prone to snuggling once the deed is done. If you're squeamish, though, Asmo is more than happy to help you with that bath, dear~

[astaroth1357]

AYE requests briefly open you say? Then here ya go: MC (female or gn) turns into a child for a day courtsey of Solomon (maybe around 5) with the Brothers. I think it'd be adorable, what with finger painting on spell books and things, but there ya go!

The MC is Now Five Years Old, Thanks Solomon...

Oh boy…. A little kid in Hell sounds like a train wreck admittedly, but at least they'll have some pretty strong guardians right? I heard It'll Be Okay by SMLE & Helen Tess and decided that was JUST the feel this sort of request needed.

Intro:

Solomon really doesn't mess up spells often. He's been doing this for a while (at least as far as my headcanon is concerned) so he's gotten pretty damn good at magic over the years. It takes a looot to make him mess up. Like say, a natural disaster, an unexpected surprise… or a whole-ass MC getting knocked into what sigil he's using at just the wrong time. Yeah. That'll do it.

How in the world is he going to explain this to the brothers…?

Lucifer

His anger toward Solomon is quite severe… tempered only slightly by how utterly adorable kid!MC is. (Well all know he's got that soft spot for cute things 🤭) It reminds him so much of his brothers at that age…

The man basically reverts back to being Dad!Lucifer sooo fast.

He's the one tying their shoes, checking on them throughout the day, making sure they're not running with scissors… that sort of thing.

Weirdly enough he's not that bothered by it… In fact, his brothers find it a little unnerving just how at peace he seems when he's keeping track of kid!MC doing this or that… It's like he's just put on an old pair of gloves and found out they still fit.

Speaking of his brothers, Lucifer can't turn off "Parent Mode" so it starts spilling over to them too...

When he started telling Levi "It's bedtime" and used a napkin to wipe Beel's face for him in public, they decided to hold an informal intervention. They're grown demons now, damnit!! 😖

Mammon

The first thing kid!MC did when they saw Mammon was fling themselves at him while screaming "MAMMIE!!!" at the top of their lungs… Regardless of his confusion, the man could probably die happy now.

He only gripes a little bit about being saddled with babysitting duty… Because everybody knows he's not the babysitter now. He's the playmate.

"Mammie, I wanna play House!!" "I ain't playing House with ya, kid. How 'bout Tag?" "No way, you're too fast!"  "Hide'n Seek?" "Luci said we can't play that no more…" "Well don't hide in the oven again!" "You didn't find me!!" "That was the problem!!!"

Pretty much the Man-Child/Actual Child Duo. He's perfect for keeping up with them and they'll whine incessantly when they can't find him for too long...

Totally the brother to take them to the amusement park or really any of those super fun places kids love. He will be just as excited as they are to be there, too.

It's not uncommon to find Mammon passed out on a couch or something with an equally exhausted kid!MC sleeping on his back. The two can really wear each other out…

Leviathan

He's probably the least perturbed by this change. Sudden de-aging of characters is a pretty popular anime trope, after all...

He's not all that taken with kid!MC though to be honest… Largely because he's too worried about keeping his stuff out of their grubby mitts. 😖

"Levi, what's this?" "GAH! Don't touch that!! That's my limited edition Ultra☆Rainbow Witch figurine!!" "I wanna play with it, though!" "It's not a toy!!" "That's not fair! You have nothing but toys, Levi!! You need to share!!" "NO I DON'T!!!"

In those times where Lucifer forces him to share, Levi goes full neat-freak. He handles all the discs and games himself, everything gets practically sterilized, and kid!MC HAS to wash their hands before they touch ANYTHING (especially the game controllers). He ain't risking any random kid-gunk getting on his precious possessions… 😰

He does enjoy playing games with them well enough, at least. No one's going to pass up a game of Devil Kart after all!

Sometimes he'll let them win just to see how happy they get… Though, then they start getting a big head about it so he has to remind him who the actual gamer is with another string of losses... Sucks to suck, kid! 😌😏

Satan

… You know, five year-olds ask a lot of questions… A looot of questions…

"Satan, what's that?" "An umbrella. You use it so that rain doesn't get on you." "Where does rain come from?" "Evaporated water collects in the atmosphere and-" "Is rain like the sky peeing?" "...." "Satan? Does your face hurt?... Satan?"

Please Lord, they may not be on speaking terms, but someone has to have mercy on his patience...

In truth, Satan's kind of charmed by how curious kid!MC is, he just wished they'd listen more to his boring explanations…

"Satan? Why does everyone listen to Diavolo?" "Lord Diavolo is like a king to us demons." "Where's his crown?" "He doesn't wear a crown." "Oh… You don't wear a crown and people listen to you. Are you a king too?" "I mean, you're not wrong… 😏" "Satan, get back to work."

Eh, maybe having a little MC isn't all that bad. They don't lie, after all. 😌

Asmodeus

OMG he hasn't seen a child this cute since the twins were in diapers!!!!

If Mammon isn't around then Asmo takes over babysitting duties (like an actual babysitter) and he's more than happy to do it. It reminds of him of taking care of baby Belphie!

If kid!MC has any interest at all in makeup then he's happy to foster it. He won't give them the good stuff of course, but he'll show them how to do blush, eyes, lipstick, nail polish, whatever!

He also dabbles in a bit of facepaint so do they want to look like a kitty, panda, or dragon? He's got them covered.

Asmo just likes to let them be creative in all forms, really. He's going to be the one to break out the paint and markers and just the kid!MC go to town! (hopefully not on the walls…)

Takes pictures of whatever they draw, good or bad, and happily displays them to everyone. There's not a big enough fridge to hold all the art he's going to collect (and zealously protect).

Beelzebub

Playmate #2 right after Mammon, but he's the less excitable, more responsible one.

"Beel! Beel! Watch me jump off this slide!!" 😰 "Please don't… You could hurt yourself… You slide down slides. That's why they're called that." "*GASP*... That's right! You're a genius!!" *sits back down* "Not really, but thank you." 😊 *waits for them at the bottom*

If the MC is with Beel, they're doing one of two things. Either they're playing together or gorging themselves on junk food.

Beel actually likes "domestic" games like House and Tea Party because it's an excuse to raid the kitchen. He'll play "house-husband" all day as long as he gets to actually eat at every imaginary dinnertime.

He'll play active games too, of course. Especially action-oriented ones like "Cops and Robbers" or Superheros. No one's better at roughhousing than Beel! Though he'll go easy on them, cause they're small and all… 😅

Everyone can always tell when Beel's in charge of them because he carries them around on his shoulders. He's the tallest one of the family so it's like getting to be a giant!

Belphegor

Belphie was introduced to kid!MC when they started crying during one of his naps. They couldn't wake him and they thought he was dead… Followed directly by them declaring their tears were magic when they noticed his eyes opened.

He proceeded to close his eyes again and purposely play dead just to get them all worried again. It was the smile creeping up onto his face that eventually gave him away… 😏

He likes to play with kid!MC and Beel but he's not going to let it get in the way of his nap schedule or anything. When they play "Knights" he gets to take the role of the world's laziest dragon… Rawr.

Kid!MC will only settle down for naptime if Belphie joins too since he'll read them a book like he used to do with Lilith.

Satan's usually the go-to guy for storytime, but Belphie's a close second (largely because he just imitates what he remembers Lucifer doing for him, voices and all 🤭).

He deals with their myriad of questions by just making shit up and pretending he knows what he's talking about. It's around the time that he told them that little men live inside the freezer and shave ice cubes to keep things cold that Lucifer started getting on his case about it… Killjoy. 🙄

read part one two three four five six seven | my masterlist

prompt: ada has some talking to do, and you're not about to deny her.

warnings: fluff, semi-angst, tommy being the cocky mf he is (let's be real, it's only acceptable cause he's so damn fine), john being cute and in love and jesus i am head over heels

tagging: @datewithgianni, @mayaslifeinabox, @deepdonutkid, @springsoulofengland, @lilymurphy03, @operation-spot

You had planned to go to Ada's after work, but she obviously had other ideas. She didn't even bother walking in and asking to speak to you; instead, choosing to bang on the window closest to your desk and yelling at you to "fucking hurry up!" Your boss opened the door for you expectantly, not offering you any protection; he was firmly in the Shelby's ever growing pocket and as long as he could go home to his children, his sickly wife and their six bed in the country, with a full time nurse and nanny, he had no interest in crossing Thomas.

"Ada, I was coming to see you after work, I swear."

"I know. I was going to let you but..." She trailed off. "We need to talk. I don't know what the fuck is going on with you. John said he'd seen you last night and you asked after me."

John had indeed seen you last night. It was strange waking up with him, used to leaving almost immediately after he was finished with you. Your small bed could barely comfortably fit you both, having to intertwine your limbs with John's to not fall off the edge. You had awoken to John pressing a kiss to your forehead before lazily trailing his fingers between your legs, waiting for you to open your eyes before settling between your thighs, tongue swirling around your clit, making you cum before sunrise.

"Do we have to do this in the street?" You practically begged, the shouting having attracted onlookers.

"I wanted to talk to you before anyone else in the family gets to you because I need you to be honest."

"Ada-"

"No, I'm doing you a favour here, so you fucking listen. Right now, between you and I, no bullshit. No tactics. No white lies. You have to tell me exactly what we're dealing with." She looked frantic, scared for some reason.

You nodded, walking her down the side street, careful not to link arms with her. You knew she was doing you a favour; this wasn't about forgiveness or friendship, much more was at stake here.

"To what extent was Thomas involved?"

That took you off guard. Ada read the confusion on your face and sighed impatiently, her subtle plea for you to keep up.

Shit. You remembered your conversation with John, how she thought this was her brother's way of pushing her out of the company.

"Don't spare my feelings. What did my brother say to you?"

"He said it was in our mutual interest that you didn't find out. He didn't care who John slept with but cared who you trusted so I had to trust him. He said there was no point in upsetting you over one of John's conquests who he'd tire of in a month."

"That all?"

"Pretty much, I didn't know Arthur knew. He never talked to me about it, did laugh at Thomas' digs now that I think on it-"

"Did you know Isaiah and Michael knew?"

"I thought they were aware but no one ever talked to me about it."

"Of course they wouldn't." She hissed, frustration causing a nerve on her neck to jump.

Ada and you had spoken for years about the rampant misogyny of her brothers and any men you two came into contact with. Although you were both far more reserved than you used to be as rebellious and adventurous thirteen year olds, you'd both grew increasingly angry at how you were treated. She'd long written off her brothers as womanisers, who saw women as purely sexual and entertaining, objectifying them. You both long despised how they dehumanised women. She was amazed that Thomas had attempted to settle down and managed a somewhat loving marriage, but resented him for his carelessness and need for power which inevitably killed his wife.

"Ada, I just want to say..." You licked your lip nervously, unsure of how to continue.

"You need to talk, Y/N. No bollocks."

"Before last night, he'd never been to mine or called. I always went to him."

The muscle in her jaw tensed.

"You slept with him last night then?" You met her question with silence and she rolled her eyes. "The second he said he saw you I knew you had, he wanted to tell me that he was going to continue seeing you and that he hoped I'd be able to accept it one day."

"We never intended to hurt you. It was meant to be fun at first, but now..." You cut yourself off with a sigh, unable to admit you'd fallen for her brother.

"Isn't fun for me. It's fucking embarrassing." She paused, lighting a cigarette, nervous to offer you one, conflicted within herself. She raised her eyebrow, prompting you to continue, the mannerism so similar to her brother’s.

"It should never have happened. I am never going to be able to fix this, I'm so fucking ashamed for doing this to you, Ada."

She sulked, silently drinking in your words.

"Obviously it's not going to be the same, yeah? I'm really fucking upset. I'm so fucked off with you but Poll's really worried about a coup. She thinks you're being used as blackmail against John to keep him on side with Tommy while he expands."

"Makes sense."

"You're part of a much bigger game, you know?"

You nodded. "Yeah, and I knew I would lose from the start. Fucking tragic, Ada."

"My brothers keep pushing, keep growing the business. They keep chasing this prize but I don't think it even exists."

"If it does, it isn't worth it if this shit is the cost. I didn't mean to play into his hands."

"You couldn't have known." She said with a shrug, " 'Siah thinks John loves you."

"He told me last night." Several times, this morning also. You would never tire of hearing him moan those words into your neck or being yelled from your front door as he left for the office.

"You love him, don't you?" She said bluntly, a statement more than a question, your face suddenly hot with embarrassment.

Everything you'd suppressed for months, everything that you'd hidden, every time you lied smiling, every knowing glance from a stranger, every degrading comment from under Thomas' breath.

"I do, an awful lot."

She pauses, relighting her cigarette, "The worst thing about the entire situation is it could've been fine if someone told me. I wouldn't have loved it, obviously, but-" Ada sighed, rubbing her temple with her free fingers.

"I thought you'd hate me."

"How could I? I'd be more angry that you'd drop your standards for my brother. Seriously? Him? Mate…."

"Come off it, I've always thought he was charming. He's funny, smart-"

"Don't gush over my brother, it's grim. I'm just so fucked off you all lied to me." She peered at you through her cigarette smoke. "If you love him and he loves you..." she pressed her lips together as she tensed her jaw, "I could get over it. If it'd make you both happy. But that's going to take a long time. A long time."

"Ada-"

"Look I have meetings and shit to sort, I have to run." She interjected, checking her wristwatch, adjusting the cap which sat atop her trendy short haircut. You caught her arm before she could turn away.

"Thank you. For understanding."

She shrugged you off, "I don't get it, I'd never do that to you. But you also don't get to choose who you're attracted to. I'm really hurt, but I do love you and John a lot. He mentioned that after last night you helped him, got him cleaned up. I have to believe that you both do love each other. So I have to believe that this is a good idea for you both and not stand in your way."

"I love you, Ada. Can we hang out soon, just us two?"

She shook her head. "I need some time, I'll be in touch, yeah?"

You nod, stretching out your pinky finger. She sighed and linked it with hers, as you'd done since you were children, a silent signal to each other after a fight that you still had the other's back.

"Right, I've got to get back to this meeting, Tom is getting done by Polly for nearly getting John killed. I need to be there in case one of the lads needs patching up."

"Your aunt has a nasty left hook, I'll give her that."

"She'll be pleased you think so, she wanted Tommy to slice you to bits for crossing me."

"Fuck’s sake, thanks for the warning, I'll keep my head down. Good luck with the meeting."

Ada nodded and you watched her walk away, a Blinder suddenly appearing by her side seemingly from nowhere. This city was crawling with them. They clambered into Ada's car as you watched the car disappear into the distance before walking back to work. Thankfully, with your head still attached to your shoulders.

*******

Ada arrived at Thomas' estate, following the swell of shouting voices to his exquisite library. It was eye roll worthy and typical Tommy to choose the location of his post-fuckup debrief to be where he had the best view of the gardens, river and rolling hills. She could bet he'd sit in a corner and stare at the view, zoning out their aunt's lecture.

An armed blinder she vaguely recognised opened the door. Thomas was making a statement today with the armed guards, she noted. Her brothers really were fucked up. Arthur was an alcoholic killer who couldn't understand that Thomas would betray them all eventually, Finn was letting the tokyo and the razor chasers that circled him distract him from keeping the family together, John was apparently in love with her best friend, and finally, Thomas nearly got Arthur and John murdered last night with his foolishness. At this point only herself and Polly were holding everyone together, keeping everything silently moving along.

The door opened, and she was the last to arrive, Polly glaring as she murmured an apology, standing next to Finn. His eyes were bloodshot, grey-purple smudges under his eyes, he'd obviously had a heavy night. The last thing the poor lad needed was Polly's shrill yelling and the blinding sun streaming through the large immaculately crafted windows, which he'd tried to block with the brim of his cap. John caught her eye, acknowledging his sister with a nod, which she returned with a small tight smile.

Ada couldn't bear to think about the reasoning behind her brother's smug interjections in between Polly's rant to Thomas who was listening wordlessly, smoking.

Y/N and John? It didn't make sense. They had a similar sense of humour, sure, but she was far too intelligent for him. He also had a swarm of children, while Y/N preferred a wild night out only staggering home at daybreak.

It made far more sense for Y/N to end up with Michael, or if it had to be a brother, Finn. They were younger, so had less responsibilities and commitments so they could keep up with her. But John? Of course she knew he was believed to be the Casanova of her brothers, he was kind, he was an excellent father, yet he could never keep anyone around long, usually John was chasing someone new after a month or so. That's why the revelation that John had been involved with her best friend for almost half a year had taken her completely by surprise. Maybe that was why she was open to them being together. That had to be it. This relationship was completely out of character for John; she needed to believe that he was serious about his feelings towards Y/N and wasn't going to fuck her over. Because if he did, John would be a dead man.

"I don't know why you're all bleating at me. Yeah, I overlooked some details in the planning of last night's meeting-"

"Such as warning us that they were really fucked off because you'd helped bomb their warehouse." John pointed out.

"What do you want me to do? Apologise? Grow up, John." Tommy snapped back.

"They had loaded guns against their heads, they deserve an apology." Ada interjected, John giving her an appreciative flash of smile. She did love her big brother. Despite the fact that she'd pretty much only been yelling at him for the past month, John never dismissed her feelings and only apologised. It was confusing to admit to herself, but when Isaiah told her that he was confident John loved Y/N, she felt a wave of relief. At least he cared about her; it was the bare minimum but the Shelbys were notorious for not even meeting the bare minimum for acceptable social interactions.

"They didn't fuckin’ get shot." Thomas stated, his voice matter of fact and condescending.

"Do you ever hear yourself speak?" Polly spit back at him. "They didn't get shot this time. But it was too fucking close."

"It won't happen again, Polly." Tommy sighed. "What else can I say? Sorry lads, take the weekend off?"

"It's a good start." Arthur countered, "You're also paying for the extension on my house and my wedding."

"Fuck’s sake Arthur I was joking. But fine. Sure."

"You can't buy your family off." Polly scoffed at him.

"Think of it as compensation, a settlement." Thomas coolly corrected his aunt. "What do you want, John? A fucking farm?"

John hesitates while Finn whispered suggestions to him, Ada meeting his stare, John raising a brow to her in question. She sighed and nodded her approval.

"You can pay off my mortgage Tom, give me the kids' birthdays off-"

"So you'd never come into work then?" Finn cut in, Ada elbowing him in the ribs. She usually enjoyed Finn's remarks but she knew where John was heading; she could barely breathe.

"Tom, you're also to leave Y/N completely alone. If you have a problem with her, you come to me about it." He said firmly.

Arthur and Tommy traded knowing looks, obviously more aware of the ins and outs of his relationship than Ada was.

"Also if you're paying for Arthur's wedding I want the equivalent in cash." He adds.

Tommy shrugged. "Whatever. As long as we can move past last night and focus on today's order of business."

John nodded, satisfied. He knew Tom wouldn't care, but just saying out loud that he was involved with Y/N and having his family aware was a relief. He hadn't realised until he finally admitted how stressful keeping his relationship a secret was. Now, he could stop worrying about Tommy interfering.

Polly rolled her eyes, lecturing the brothers on their lack of moral backbone to allow themselves to be bought off, but dismissed them. She caught Ada's arm in hers on their way out, pulling her far from earshot.

"So Y/N and John are together now?" She asked, her face firm and scowling.

"Polls, I talked with her, she's aware of what she's done. She apologised and meant it. What more can I ask for?"

"Her not to have fucked him in the first place."

"She said that. Look, Polls, they're happy right? John seems happy-"

"He always is when he gets a leg over."

"You know she looked after him last night? Fixed him up after the meeting."

"Meeting? It was a fucking set up." Polly hissed but her face had softened. "She cleaned him up?"

"Antiseptic, bandages and all."

Polly looked subtly impressed, although she'd never admit it. "He went to hers? Not yours?"

"He wanted to talk to her." Ada shrugs, "I saw her this morning and-"

"What do you mean? You bumped into her?"

"I went to her work." Ada admitted, her aunt shooting her an exasperated glare.

"Why do I bother? Nobody listens to me."

"I had to talk to her, I'm glad I did. She reckons she loves him, he told her last night that he loves her, so..."

"We are talking about John? Our John?"

"I know Polls, I'm as amazed as you."

Her aunt huffed, unimpressed. "Are you okay with it though?"

"I guess, I just want them to be happy. I've told them to give me time with it."

"She was a good friend growing up, but people change, sometimes for the better, often for the worse."

"Poll, it's Y/N; she's my best friend. At the end of the day, we'd do anything for each other."

"Sweet Ada, you're going to be so miserable if you keep letting people walk all over you." Polly said wisely, kissing her goodbye affectionately. "I hope you're right. If she makes you cry again I'll kill her myself."

"Thanks, Polls."

She knew her aunt wasn't joking.

Heya ! Are you familiar to marvel comics a little ?

I would like some cute headcanons about kitty pryde becoming franklin richards' babysitter after he saved her life.

Hello! Yes I'm familiar with the marvel comics 😊 The issue in which the Mutant Massacre and all the events following it happen however is a bit vague in my memory since I read it a while ago. I apologize for any inaccuracies in advance 😌😌

Pairing (PLATONIC): Kitty Pryde & Franklin Richards [Marvel Comics: The Fantastic 4 and X-Men]

Warnings: Mentions of injuries, Battles

Genre: Platonic/Family fluff

- Kitty always knew that as a member of the X-Men, she was constantly, at least in theory, in a decent dose of danger and practically staring death in the face

- However, after the mutant massacre, when her powers turned against her, she found herself wrapped in death's arms

- She had just about accepted her faith when she was stabilized by some miracle

- It was no miracle, it was the doing of Reed Richards

- She still remembers the feeling of Sue's arms replacing death's, holding her in a tight loving embrace as tears slid down her face

- "You're ok, darling. You're still with us."

- Before she could even process Sue's words, Franklin had run over to her and tackled her

- The boy, unlike his mom, was in complete shambles

- He had been a witness to the whole thing including his parents' seemingly hopeless attempts to prevent the mutant girl from vanishing into nothingness

- He couldn't fathom the thought of losing his favorite mutant and best friend

- Luckily he didn't have to cause the girl was alive and well

- And Sue and Reed planned to make sure it'd stay that way

- They did so by adopting her into their family, officializing her role as Franklin's big sister

- Speaking of the little rascal, no one was happier than him

- It felt so nice to have someone to be a kid with

- Kitty never made him feel like he's supposed to be more mature than his age just because he possesses powers

- She understood how confusing the whole concept was for him and she made sure to relate her own experiences from the time period before she joined the X-Men to let him know that his thoughts and feelings weren't out of place

- She knows what it feel like to lead a normal life until you realize you're far from normal

- She also understands what it's like to envy people with a normal life

- And she's most definitely familiar with being overwhelmed by it all, the powers, controlling them, using them to protect people or even save the world

- She knows it's not an easy task for a kid his age to comprehend but Kitty was determined to be with him every step of the way

- First she helped him understand his powers and see them as something to be proud of instead of something he should frown upon and wish to get rid of

- She helped him in the practical aspect too, teaching him how to control his telekinesis and how to use it with close to perfect precision

- Yes, he did break a thing or two or ten while practicing but Kitty cleared the evidence before either Sue or Reed could catch wind of it

- So, despite being his hero coach, she was also his partner in crime

- But above all, she was his sister, engaging in activities normal siblings would do together

- Like play out in the yard

- Eat ice cream and watch animated movies together

- Help him with his homework and studies

- Take him to school and pick him up after his classes ended

- Tuck him into bed and read him a bedtime story

- Kitty knew what it was like to have your childhood taken away from you on account of your abnormality

- And she was determined to never let that happen to Franklin

- He was a kid first and a gifted one second

- But above all, he was her brother and he meant the world to her
