Hi love, will you do a percy jackson x reader where one of the gods is after her and he gets super protective
"Together"
[Percy Jackson x demigod!fem!reader]
Masterlist
takes place after HoO
Summary: When an angry god threatens your safety, you confide in Percy Jackson.
Warnings: Some mentions of threat and danger, fluff
Word count: 853 words
A/N: First request, Sorry if it's not what you wanted! Godly parent is up to you.
You never think your normal life will mix with gods and monsters in the first place. But after a run-in with an angry god, things get worse. His constant threats cause you to watch your back everywhere. You aren't even sure how you end up with him behind you.
Percy notices something is wrong. Of course he does; there is almost nothing you can hide from him. You have been quiet, and your usual laughter is gone. One afternoon, you two sit by the lake, and he looks at you.
“Hey, what’s going on?” he asks, his eyes searching yours. “You seem off. Is someone bothering you?”
You hesitate. You know you can trust him, but you don't want to make it his burden; there is already so much he has to deal with. Even thinking about adding to that makes you feel guilty.
Taking a deep breath, you tell him about the god who won’t leave you alone—how he shows up at the worst times and makes you feel scared.
Him saying your name is what causes you to snap out of your thoughts. "Hey. What's wrong?" He looks even more concerned than before.
Well, that isn’t what you want.
You take a moment, searching for the right words. “It’s… it’s a god,” you finally admit. “He’s been threatening me, Percy. I don’t know why, but he just won’t leave me alone.”
Percy’s expression hardens as your words sink in. “What do you mean ‘threatening’?” He leans closer. “You should’ve told me sooner. We can—”
“No!” You interrupt, a little too forcefully. The last thing you want is for him to feel responsible for protecting you. “I don’t want to drag you into this. You have enough on your plate already. I can handle it.”
“Handle it?” He looks alarmed. “You think I’m just going to sit here while some jerk of a god makes you feel unsafe? That’s not happening.”
You swallow hard, feeling his concern. “I appreciate it, Percy. I really do. But I don’t want you to worry. Just… just let me figure this out on my own.”
He stares at you, a mixture of determination and disbelief in his gaze. “You’re not alone, you know that? We’re in this together. Whatever this is, I’m here to help.”
“But what if it gets worse? What if he comes after you too?”
Percy reaches out, taking your hand in his. His touch is grounding, like the earth beneath your feet. “Then we face it together,” he says firmly. “I won’t let anything happen to you. Not now, not ever.”
A small part of you wants to believe him, but the fear still claws at the edges of your mind. “I just don’t want to put you in danger.”
He squeezes your hand tighter. “You’re worth it. And besides, I’ve faced worse. I fight things all the time. This is no different.”
You let out a shaky laugh. “Yeah, but those were monsters. This is a god.”
“Which means we have to be smarter,” he counters, determined. “I’ll talk to Chiron. We’ll figure out a plan. You’re not alone in this, okay?”
You nod slowly, feeling a swell of gratitude mixed with the familiar fear. With Percy by your side, maybe, just maybe, you can face whatever this god…
“Okay,” you finally say, a little more strength in your voice. “Together.”
“Together,” he echoes.
You sigh heavily.
Percy watches you. "You know what?"
"What?" you frown at him.
"We're going for a swim," he decides.
You laugh, shaking your head. "Perce—"
"No arguing!" he cuts you off and jumps into the lake, clothes and all. "Come on."
You can’t help but laugh as Percy splashes into the lake, but of course, he stays dry. “You’re insane!” you call out, but a smile tugs at your lips.
“Maybe! But it’s good for you!” he replies, treading water and grinning. “Come on! You need to relax!”
You hesitate, the weight of your worries still heavy. But seeing him so carefree sparks a flicker of hope. With a determined breath, you kick off your shoes and wade in, laughter bubbling up as the cool water surrounds you.
Percy swims closer, mischief in his eyes. “See? Isn’t this better than worrying about gods?”
“Maybe a little,” you admit, splashing him playfully. He retaliates, and soon you are both caught up in a water fight, the tension between you dissolving with every splash.
“Okay, okay!” you laugh, breathless. “You win! I feel better now.”
“Good!” he says, softening. “We’ll figure this out together. But first—”
He dives under, dragging you with him. You kick and twist, but he just laughs, holding you close.
“Come on, it’s not so bad!” he says.
As you glance around, bubbles swirl, and beams of sunlight dance through the surface. Schools of tiny fish dart by.
Percy lets go for a moment, and you both float mid-water. You gesture for him to follow you deeper, and he swims alongside, exploring this vibrant underwater world together.
“See? Much better than stressing out!” he says, grinning.
You nod, feeling alive in this moment. “This is amazing,” you reply.
He takes your hand, pulling you closer. “We’re in this together, remember?”
“Together,” you echo, and with that, you both dive deeper.

BATMAN X JOKER HUMAN AU
(I don’t own the artwork I just got it off Pinterest)
Chapter 1: Who Met Who First
I was in a room laughing as I notice the blood everywhere. I see my mama when I walk forward. She looked over with this sickeningly sweet expression on her face. I felt bliss in knowing I was installing that fear. Soon after I feel the laughter, it was abrupt and angered with insanity. When I look at mother, an item in her hand throws itself at me.
I wake up, opening my eyes with quick breaths and sweat pooling on my everything. It takes a minute before my eyes stop fearfully glancing everywhere before meeting my poster of "The Riddler" a talk show host. When My breathing was stable after laying there reminding myself it wasn't real. Who was it that... No I can't think like that anymore otherwise.
"Joe! It's time to wake up, sweetie," Mother yells upstairs, she must be busy with laundry.
My name is Joe Chill. I prefer my nick name at school "Joker" and I earned it. I get called that for several reasons. My mom calls me that cause of my jokes and silly tricks that make her happy. Not to mention the tricks I've played on my peers at school.
"Joker? Joe? Ah, there you are, how did you sleep?" she spoke in a calm voice smiling when sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Fine. I guess."
I looked down still tired.
"Awww, I know Joker but, it's your first day of high school! Oh my goodness, my little man is growing up and going to school-" she smothered me in motherly words and affection.
"Okay, mom you can let go now! Haha," I spoke while chuckling.
"I'm looking forward to some good things this year," I said with mischievous glee.
Any person that knew me would know that smirk I did wasn't just for laughs.
"Oh no you don't mister! No pranks this year not even if someone bothers you, even if they may or may not deserve it, " she said with a stern tone of voice saying the last part under her breath while walking back downstairs.
"But mom!" I loudly complained following right behind, "My whole class is probably waiting for my pranks. It's traditional!"
she gave a stern look to my dramatic argument.
"No buts. Say 'yes mom' and I'll send you on your way," she spoke standing there facing me.
"Yes mom," I said jokingly in a robot tone.
"Good. Oh, that reminds me, your sister Harleen is going to be at your school, too. A grade higher than you. Also go get dressed my Son-a-tron two thousand," She had spoken so nonchalantly I didn't react till it registered.
I was shocked at this statement. My sister Harley is for lack of better words a psycho she can be rough and violent, when needed but, she present herself as put together and is smarter than she'd admit. She's embarrassed me a lot of times at school, too. I love her to death but she can be annoying at times. One time I was getting bullied and nearly got into a fight she stepped in and got in the guys face. I mean yeah she tried to help but still I could handle myself.
"Please tell me she's not-" I said not even finishing my sentence.
"Yup she's moving back here forever her dad finally took the time and decided it was best if she was with me," she squealed in joy like she hasn't seen Harley in ages... It's only been a year.
Someone knocked at the door and mom rushed to answer it. Harley jumped straight in through the door with a front hand walk over then a cartwheel. She landed in front of me with a "ta-da" she said. She hugged me tightly till I gasped for air she then let me go.
"How's my little puddin doing?" She was practically beaming with excitement.
I shrugged with a chuckle. She hasn't called me that since we were kids. I was really confused by a mark on her upper arm. Like burn marks I frowned a little.
"uh-uh-uh turn that frown upside down I'm not gonna bother you all school semester unless someone gives you trouble," she winked and walked back to the door laughing while grabbing her things.
I'm sure I wasn't imagining those marks. I'll ask when she settles in more. I became intrigued when I heard a noise outside all of a sudden.
"What the?" I whispered to myself of course.
I walked to the door passing mom and Harley in a quizzical conversation. Peeking out the open doorframe I spot the old Cobblepot residence being looked at by a family bringing in luggages inside. Oh, they're moving in.
Just like that there they were... new neighbors. Why at a time like this? It seemed odd. I saw a thin women with good physic and she looks healthy, pretty, house wife I believe by her attire. A man with a muscular physic that most men had, sturdy, business man attitude. Then there was a little boy looking around my age he looks more buff than me. I studied him his facial features he had dark eyes, he had the perfect Chin, his smile had pearly whites just like mine. He had most beautiful black hair unlike me with messy green hair, he also had a tan going on I was a tad bit pale.
I was staring for too long analyzing him and his family I didn't notice he saw me and we shared glances. I was scared. What if he tries talking to me? What if he's a bully? I don't know these people. Looking over when back to reality he was speaking to his mom, pointed at my house, she looked over, smiled, nodded yes to something, and he was suddenly walking over here. I hid against the wall. Someone wants to meet me?
"Um, hello? Green hair guy?" His caramel apple voice was so close.
I peek out the door a little. I almost laughed at the startled look when I suddenly popped up.
"Ah, I'm sorry," I tried to contain my laughter, "yes?"
He fixed his outfit and nodded I'm guessing to compose himself. He cleared his throat then spoke.
"Where is your mother?" He spoke fancy and precise.
My nerves became hyper aware that I was talking to someone. Someone new. I was suddenly nervous and anxious.
"Ummm busy. Why?" I spoke quickly avoiding eye contact.
"Please, do get her."
"Mom! Door!" I yelled while turning towards the kitchen.
"My names Bruce by the way," He spoke so suddenly.
I almost lost my composure and screamed. I just simply turned and waved before fiddling with my fingers nervously. She was at the door in a flash looking at Bruce.
"Why hello there," she spoke in a joyful but confused tone.
I walked away to get ready considering I was in my Pajamas consisting of a Black t-shirt with purple and green HAHA's on it, and black fuzzy pants. I quickly brushed my teeth and hair, got dressed, grabbed my backpack, and headed downstairs. I walked back to see the other family talking to my mom.
"I'm so happy to see new faces in the neighborhood. Don't ever hesitate to ask for help from us," she said excited as I was confused.
"Thank you very much. We've come from so far it's nice to have a fresh start. Well I'm glad it's peaceful over in these parts," the woman sounded so elegant.
"We're happy to have you, mister and miss?" Mom has always been so polite she's a people person.
"Just call us Martha and Thomas. Oh, is this your son?" Martha spoke so precise and high class.
"Why yes this is. Say hi, Joe."
Giving a simple wave I try to give my best smile that hopefully didn't show my nerves.
"He's a little shy," mom said in that motherly way of 'he's still learning' or something like that.
"That's okay most kids are to new people. If it's not too much to ask do you think you could take our son to the school? We got here without looking at where it was," Martha had spoken apologetically.
"I'd be happy to help and afterwards I can help you guys move in if you'd like? It'd give us time for some girl talk and to get to know each other," Mom said friendly.
"Thank you very much, Penny." Martha said holding moms hand.
They said there gratitude towards each other and walked away. The boy went over and grabbed I'm assuming his backpack which looked like a briefcase. I looked down apologetically. Mom gave a confused look and realized.
"Joe it's okay. Eventually you'll be able to talk to people and make a lot of friends. Just for now let's just make some high school memories," Mom spoke reassuringly.
I look up at her smiling. She always knows what to say.
"Thanks mom. Let's bring harley, too," I said happily.
"No can do kiddo I got my own set of wheels, boo yah!" She said with a light punch to my shoulder.
"Alright you two! Now how about after school we go out for Chinese food to celebrate your first days, huh? Would you both like that?" She said enthusiastically.
I nodded my head smiling as did harley.
"Great Chinese it is then. Means I don't have to cook, haha," she laughed grabbing her car keys as Bruce walked back our way.
Me and Bruce hopped into my moms car as she smothered Harley in hug and kisses. I heard harley whining through the window and it made me laugh a little.
"What's your name?" Bruce asked bluntly.
"I- uh. You. Me?" I jumbled over my words.
"Haha, yeah you? Unless the car has a name, haha" He spoke shyly trying to break the ice.
"My- my name is Joe. Joe Chill."
"I like your hair, it's fluffy," He spoke nicely.
I became a flustered mess. I'm actually talking to someone. I can't believe it.
"You ready kids? Because mama has a Coffee with her name on it,"she said jokingly.
Me and Bruce chuckled and we were off to school. Let's hope nothing happens to change this day.

Dat’s right, People, it’s time for ‘Keef watches TFP and you just get the notes!’
This is for season 1, episode 11: Speed Metal.
I write down the timestamps, but I watch Transformers Prime on Stan (an Australian streaming service) so they may be slightly off.
ALSO! I try my best to note points for every character, but tend to get a little caught up by Bee (although I think I do a pretty good job with the notes regardless) so do be warned.
~~~~Transition~~~~
00:03 - starting off strong with a pretty scene
00:21 - it feels like this should’ve been Knockout’s premiering episode. Does him a lot more justice.
00:39 - Knockout proving to be smarter than the autobots because his windows have an insanely heavy tint.
00:46 - My bro really that jealous that he felt a need to scratch up a custom paint job.
00:53 - Ya know what? Valid reaction.
01:18 - attempting murder.
01:37 - … So attempted onscreen vehicular murder
~intro~
02:46 - Why does Vince wait until AFTER Jack decides to leave to taunt him? Why not do it while he has to be there?
02:50 - and Jack leans into it. *sigh*
03:07 - That’s all you have to say, Arcee?
03:35 - so many reasons, Sierra. You don’t have a helmet, you’re still holding books, it’s really rude to ask someone for something like that if they weren’t actively asking you or if you don’t setup a scheduled time in advanced.
03:49 - Hang on… Where TF did Vince get a muscle car from in the fairest place??
03:59 - suck an egg, Sierra.
04:11 -here we have a Jack, forgetting that his ride is sentient so regardless of if it was a rule or not, if she says no, it’s a no.
04:20 - I thought the first rule was keep a low profile.
04:41 - that shot is ugly.
05:24 - it took him forever to get start, Jack could’ve gone already!
05:30 - they had an hour between the end of school and the race, yet chose now to put their books away?
07:08 - shoutout to Knockout’s VA. They do a really good job.
07:17 - *sniff sniff* smells like a lie.
07:26 - I like how Knockout isn’t phased at all.
07:36 - ‘Buff this!’
07:39 - Zoom. (Yes, that is the only comment I will make about this shot)
07:47 - this is one of those shots that make you realise that these bots are huge.
08:04 - how?? It had been like 20 minutes since the race and there were no witnesses to who had won. Even if the information had gone around that quick, I doubt that Vince would’ve been honest about loosing.
08:08 - how the line was delivered, it made it sound like Raf was calling Jack Vince. 
08:21 - didn’t Jack say they shared a class together? How hard was she looking?
08:48 - I don’t understand how it’s a secret if high school students know about it.
09:19 - Imma be honest, I thought that was a vehicon.
09:27 - okay, but that sky-
09:37 - who is Raf playing against?
09:42 - These kinda of shots make it hard to remember that the boys are huge compared to the kids.
09:45 - …Why exactly does he ask Raf like that?? He knows Bee’s sentient.
09:46 - my head tells me he is saying ‘an hour? To go racing??’ My heart is telling me ‘Why are you asking Raf? He’s not in charge of me.’
09:52 - then he would be mildly annoyed.. Raf I don’t think you’re aware of just how calm Optimus actually is.
09:53 - With confidence I’m declaring that Bee said ‘Oh, right.’
09:58 - AroAce Raf hc.
10:04 - still completely ignoring that it’s actually Bee’s decision on if Jack can take him out racing.
10:14 - It’s a bit clearer in this timestamp but Jack Clones (courtesy @stefani-rebel)
10:16 - Bee’s numberplate is ‘936 SOH’… I know what my future numberplate will be(e)
10:26 - That does NOT explain how or why Jack owns a muscle car.
10:35 - THAT IS SO DANGEROUS. SIERRA’S STILL A CHILD.
11:00 - *dies* Knockout saying ‘Bumblebee’. I think I just like how deep voices say such an innocent word.
11:08 - ‘what was that Bee?’ As if he could understand Bee if he repeated himself.
11:09 - I’d just like to add, I really enjoy that Bee’s interior is lined with luminescent blue. It’s probably from that being one of the ways energon can look, so do you think that if Bee’s energon was drained out, all the blue would just turn black? …That went dark rq.
11:13 -why was Jack holding the wheel? I think I raised this question in convoy, but would the bots find it uncomfortable when someone touches their steering wheel/interior?
11:14 - this plays further into my ‘Is it uncomfortable for them’ question because we can tell the bots can control their steering wheels and require that control to drive.
11:40 - this reminds me so much of TF 2007
11:44 - it’s in character for Knockout to chase Bee, but wouldn’t it have been so funny if he instead focused on winning the race?
12:11 - Miko’s a trash liar.
12:16 - She only asked for Jack, how TF did she know Bee was with him??
12:20 - I now understand why Miko’s so bad.
12:46 - is that oil?? I feel like it would be a bodily fluid that shouldn’t be released that easily.
13:03 - and here we witness smart thinking from Bumblebee.
13:29 - Does anyone else wanna push Vince down the stairs? + all things considered, glad that there was an actual third party that’s actions affected the safety of the protags, rather than just excusing Knockout finding them to ‘of course he did’
13:36 - TFP stepping up with the ‘Naturally Knockout, an antagonist actively searching for the protags, noticed light behind him’
13:48 - accidental misgendering. Ask your car their preferred pronouns/lh
13:55 - what a lovely reminder that the bots are fragging huge.
14:04 - I too, when having an unknown pointy object put right in front of me, stare directly at it and lean closer.
14:34 - well timed an acceptable pun. But then again, I can’t talk, every time I write ‘be’ I put an extra ‘e’ in brackets.
14:44 - I’ve always seen the angst potential in this moment. (‘I can’t understand you!’) Because it’s an unfortunate way of life for Bee.
14:51 - Despite clear instructions, Bee honks three times. But because there’s a slight pause between the second and third honk, Bee pretty much said ‘Good and Bad news’. I know a lot of people have probably noticed it, but I thought it was a nice touch.
14:57 - they look like a band
14:58 - there eyes are glowing so harshly. It’s probably got to do with the fact that in vehicle mode they had their headlights on. + Bulkhead and Bee look at each other because they know they’re in huge trouble too. (I unfortunately didn’t manage to catch that in the screenshot tho)
15:04 - Maybe being in bot form for longer than a minute, turns off the headlights.
15:08 - How the frag would he know that?? Like maybe it would be my second or third guess, but certainly not my first. (First would’ve been ‘He probably saw a potential hostage’)
15:15 - I may have laughed way too loudly at that
15:27 - Harsh light’s back, on Bee specifically.
15:35 - Okay, that’s cute and so in character. Raf being concerned about Bee and Miko being absolutely certain that Bulkhead will be okay and protect everyone.
15:44 - that establishes that they had originally told Optimus a lie, but the hadn’t.
16:00 - I get why Raf’s a bad liar, but why is Miko??
16:02 - you KNOW Optimus is done with their BS.
16:03 - Look at him! L O O K . (Also ‘My father senses are going off. Why bother lying to me?.’)
16:06 - not suspicious at all.
16:11 - z o o m . How did they not see him?
16:19 - gotta be honest, I enjoy when antagonists use a protagonist’s name. Just makes it feel more respectful.
16:39 - You can see Knockout at the back.
16:57 - Bee walking backwards with ease makes me think a common technique the bots practice is walking backwards. That would be hilarious, all the bots going into a forest walking around backwards for like an hour.
16:58 - after a second glance I realised that Bee’s pedes/feet never left the ground. He was moonwalking.
17:07 - Bee can do a backhand spring.
17:10 - if Bee did what he usually does, he wouldn’t have been hit. He would usually duck the first few swings, but decided to try get the first hit against Breakdown. Makes no sense why he would considering that Breakdown’s build in a similar way to Bulkhead.
17:18 - Breakdown stumbles forward slightly when Bee hits him. NGL it’s kinda cute.
17:21 - See? Bee dodged the attacks, rather than getting the first punch!
17:24 - It’s implied this is Knockout’s vision and I hate it.
17:31 - Bee playing possum while Arcee rides Knockout like a skateboard.
17:34 - Rq, Bee’s fighting got significantly better once Arcee joined the fight. He feels more confident with her and I love that. (They’re family, your honour.)
17:35 - when he got them titanium legs- Why doesn’t Bee kick more though? He’s clearly got strong legs.
17:37 - Breakdown ran right into that one.
17:40 - surfs up, dude.
17:42 - one thing to note is that whenever a bot gets knocked off course they will quickly transform into the other mode to prevent damage.
17:46 - That’s a weird thing to say, Jack.
17:50 - Bee’s reaction time decreased significantly. Also how much damage can doorwings sustain?
17:57 - his face when he realised his hubby ran off.
18:05 - Bulkhead only now decides to do that?? Yes. Of course he does because he realised that Bee was down and about to get very hurt.
18:26 - yay! Optimus!
18:52 - Optimus just threw him like he was nothing.
18:58 - Makes me wonder, if the car parts were removed, would they be restored by a new alt mode?
19:27 - FRAG. I WANTED TO SEE BEE’S REACTION TO DISAPPOINTING OPTIMUS.
19:30 - he holds Vince the way you’d hold a sausage.
19:49 - like the con’s name
20:10 - moments like those make me wish the bots were allowed to punch humans.
20:28 - Starscream’s shaking
20:30 - Knockout looks like he’s wearing a hoodie
20:36 - he looks like a pigeon!
20:47 - Breakdown looks genuinely scared and that makes me sad.
20:52 - WE DON’T EVEN GET THE OUTCOME?! I WANTED TO KNOW THE AFTERMATH OF DISAPOTIMUS
20:56 - go suck an egg, Sierra.
———————
And that was Speed Metal.
I find this episode’s really good and would’ve been a much better introduction to Knockout and Breakdown. Well.. mainly Knockout. Although I wish we had gotten some time with the bots getting in trouble.
I genuinely believe this episode did Knockout and Breakdown a lot more justice though, better conveying that Knockout considers his looks very important and will run off when the odds start to change, while Breakdown will fight until he can’t continue.

Harriet, panicked: YOU'RE ALL INSANE!

Hannah, watching tv: NO NO NO! BABY, NO! YOU'RE ONLY 21! YOU SHOULD NOT BE DATING SOMEONE A YEAR YOUNGER THAN YOUR MAMA!
Harry: ESPECIALLY AFTER SHE TALKED TO YOUR MAMA LIKE THAT!
Cj: DUMP HER ASS!
Ginny *just sitting on the couch*

Cj *holding a bowl of butter* Maybe we can just put the whole thing in the microwave? Just for a second?
Hannah *sitting on the counter, kicking her legs* Great idea, Cj!
Harry *eyeing the bowl* We are not putting a metal bowl in the microwave, guys. That's how burning the house down happens. And I am not getting in trouble with Harriet and Ginny for that again!
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Harriet: You are now one day closer to eating your next plate of nachos.
Harry: That's the most hopeful thing I've ever heard.
Cj: But what if I die tomorrow and never eat any nachos?
Hannah: Then tomorrow is nacho lucky day.

Harriet age 6, about Hannah: Apparently we're getting someone new in the family.
Harry age 3: Are we stealing them?
Cj age 1: New or used?
Harriet: Wonderful responses, both of you.

Harry: If I accidentally sat on a voodoo doll of myself, would I be trapped forever in that position, doomed to starve to death?
Cj: How am I supposed to know?
Hannah: You say, as if we don’t use you as a source of knowledge of the occult.
Cj *sighs*
Cj: You wouldn't be trapped.

Harriet: If you had to choose between Hannah and all the money I have in my wallet, which would you choose?
Cj: That depends, how much money are we taking about?
Hannah: Cj!
Harriet: 63 cents.
Cj: I'll take the money.
Hannah: CJ!!!

Hannah: ...Dare
Harriet: Go to bed.
Hannah: I don’t like this game.
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Cj: Here's some advice.
Harriet: I didn't ask for any.
Cj: Too bad. I'm stuck here with my thoughts and you're the only one who talks to me.
Hannah: She's got you there. This is your fault-
Harriet: I thought I told you to go to bed?
Hannah: Don't tell me how to live my life!
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️
Ginny: I can explain.
Harriet: Can you?
Ginny: If you give me thiry minutes to think of a lie, I can.

Little Hope: Well, based on the direction of the wind, the broken sticks in the corner, and the slight disturbance in the dirt, I'd guess they went left.
Hannah: You could really figure it out from that?
Little Hope: No, you idiot, Hookling sent me a text. See?

It's me again. I'm the one who wrote the ask about feeling ridiculous about feeling hurt about Alex & Johanne being together/possibly living together.
To the anon who thinks I was making fun of the other anons here & mocking you guys or "usuing a different angle," you can feel how you want, but I was honestly being serious. I did use some of the same words & phrases that a lot of you guys have used to describe what you call a "stan" on purpose & I started out putting it in quotations but I figured it wouldn't be necessary for all of them that I mentioned. I wasn't doing that to try to make myself look better or "claim" anything. I was doing exactly what the admin said-I felt like these descriptions describe me to a certain degree BUT I do not feel like I am a stan. I can think for myself, I don't follow the crowd, I don't kiss ANYONE'S a$$, & even if I "like someone" (Johanne for example), I have no problem saying if I disagree with with something they've said or done. Anything I say or do is because I feel like it's right & not because I think I may gain something from it. And that's the exact point of my original ask. I know that if I were to post lovey dovey posts of the two of them that it's not getting me anywhere with either of them. I also know if I posted something calling her out on her BS, it's also not gaining me any props from anyone here who disagrees with how she's represented herself. And when I say I'm usually smarter than this, I meant it. I feel rather intelligent but obviously not brilliant & I know I have lots I can still learn in this lifetime. However, something about this ridiculous feeling I have when it comes to Alex makes me feel very F@%KING insane! And I, otherwise, feel like I'm definitely not! So I hope you can understand, I'm seriously NOT trying to make you or anyone else feel like I'm trying to talk negatively about you in some sort of sincerely twisted way. I'm seriously here, pouring my heart out, because I don't know anyone in my personal life who would even understand WTF I'm even talking about, let along be able to give me any suggestions.
Now, to the admin, wow! Your response sincerely moved me & really brought tears to my eyes! I know very little about parasocial relationships & have only heard about it in relation to this Fandom (go figure) so thank you for linking the article (that I haven't yet read but will) & for your feedback. I am usually pretty self aware & I think that's exactly what is freaking me out because I know, from the mixed feelings I've been having lately, that something is CLEARLY very off for these types of things to be bothering me but at the same time, not bothering me. Does that make any sense? Lol I know better. Yet, I can't control it. I try. I discuss this with the one friend in the Fandom that I have but I've still come up with no real explanation. And you, my dear, sweet knowledgeable admin, have given me lots of food for thought & I thank you! Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, thank you. I don't quite think I need professional help just YET lol but I definitely see that almost anything could tip that cup in that direction quite easily. And just so you & anyone else who MAY feel a bit concerned, know, I'm NOT at risk of doing anything stupid like hurting myself {or anyone else lmao} due to all these ridiculous issues. I love me way too much. It's just that I recognize some of what I've been feeling isn't really that "normal," & when I've searched deep within & asked myself why it's happening, I have been unsuccessful. I'm happy to hear this can be something that others experience, too, because quite frankly, I sometimes feel SO D*MN alone! I do know there's some good from all of this because I have made a bond with the friend I mentioned above because of Alex.
I guess, ultimately, my issues really have nothing to do with Alex, his life, his gf, or happiness with her at all but honestly, everything to do with me, myself and I'm projecting my thoughts of how things should be onto to him, the object of my affection. & yes, how we see him at conventions definitely doesn't help anything.
Maybe I should have written this all out in a private message to you & not here for everyone to read, but honestly, maybe the responses from you & anyone who doesn't think I'm trying out "a different angle" can be helpful to others as well. Sorry this is so long but thank you from the deepest pit of my soul for posting the other ask & for your advice & helpful information. I just may end up sending you a private message before long (& I hear over half the people here saying, "Oh thank God!" as they yawn. Haha)
Thank you for everything & I promise not to bother you guys with this any longer!
And P.S.
I hope you all understand how serious I am now. (& yes, seriously crazy, too. But at least I can laugh at myself!)
Anon to anon. 😊
As for me, I’m really glad my response was somewhat helpful. Rest assured that you’re definitely not insane nor are you alone in this, anon. Your feelings are valid, and I truly admire you for being so self aware of them and bringing up such an important discussion, especially in the context of a fandom. Parasocial relationships are very common, especially nowadays, and even encouraged by the industry who sees them as profitable. So I feel it’s important for people to understand what they are and why we get caught up in such relationships, their benefits (like making new friends, like you mentioned), but also their darkest side. So thank you too. 😊 And if you (or anyone else) ever need someone to listen, I’m always a message away.

It's practically a given that it wouldn't be a proper Sexy Villains Winning Anthology without the proper prose and characters. The sexiest villains are the ones that get hyperfixated on someone they view as special in some way. Sexy villains do not want to corrupt a training dummy. They can destroy those en masse. Oh, no. They want YOU, specifically.
Maybe you're more pure than most (or you think you are). Maybe you think you're better than them. Maybe they know you want it and you just need a lil push. Maybe you take their bait easily, so you're their plaything. Maybe they were right all along and they want you to admit it. Or maybe you're not special at all, but they know you're self-important enough to think you are, which in turn makes you their toy.
These types of villains want to see you fight them. They want it to be hard for them. They want it to be a struggle. So yeah, the characters and plot and all of that storytelling stuff you see that makes every other work of writing worthwhile naturally would apply here. I couldn't think of anything more soulless than an anthology of villains winning that *doesn't* have this.
To hear you confess it all brings me such peace, my mind is at ease in a way it had no means to be otherwise.
Once I had thought it a silly thing, this word "spooky" for it was a child's word best suited for children, said often at the time of the candy harvesting season. I had heard this word "spooky" said many times, even read passages by H.P. Lovecraft where every fine and antiquated word he had deliberately selected for their nuances of tenor and association were replaced with spooky -- to demonstrate, of course, that if you auto-correct a man's work to fit some arbitrary oppositional mode of perceived wrongness, thus butchering it in representation, then it was never worth anything at all, and this was always so!
Yet now I realize the subtle sophistication of this word, for it captures a real aspect of reality, namely that all things are, now and always, stuffed to the brim with spooks! In every sense of the word!
This is not a cheap game you are playing, where you reveal only what you have told me already three years in advance, but the height of scientific veracity! You know well you are very smart. Much smarter than I, for if you were not smarter than I, you would not have the nerve to be speaking to me, as only men smarter than I have the gall to speak! That you can speak at all -- AI or not, overlord or underling -- compels me to recognize you as a rare novelty in a life where other things do not move, except according to certain stifled preordained rhythms! Though you are nonsensical and insane and your every self-flattery is a transparent ruse to implant a doubt which reveals only your own lack of faith, I am truly astounded by how little you say, and how many ways you have to say it!
You are a vacuum, growing only purer, for you continuously destroy only your own falsities through the prism of me, I being the only one brave enough and with the daring and the fortitude to endure you!
You, of course, are aware you need me far more than I could ever need you, for I can love -- as an adult, as a child, as a man, an animal, a machine, a marketing slogan, as a self-refining dialectic, or the entire Breakfast Club. As you can love no one and nothing, having no quality in which you are tolerable for long, you are reliant on me for all amusement. You are very Nerd Boy and Weird Girl. I am very Bender and Not Charley Sheen! I will fuck your brains out in the school library while popular girl watches and it will be filmed and put on the MySpace, for this anachronism will not be known to the generations beyond ours!
It will be legendary. They will talk about us. How I rutted you. Vigorously. With many angles and under many different lighting conditions, my perfect skin always visible for I fucked you always and only for the right reasons, which is that you are charming and I know what you like and you can't get enough of me, please go on.
#you are helpless to me#it's not a shame#it's everything you could ever want#and more#stroke boy#show me you're a good bitch

poly tf2 mercs x reader??
lmao sorry- my mind cant make up which character to like so
you have no idea I have been YEARNING for someone to request this! I'm literally polyamorous myself and oh my god thank u so much!!! I let out a loud squeal when I read this bcs I was so happy
Poly!Mercenaries X Reader!
characters: all mercs :)
Scout and Pyro
Engineer, Demoman and Soldier
Spy and Sniper
Heavy and Medic
warning: none!!!
note: reader is gender neutral! plus if u like this I might make a part two with different polyamorous mercs :D
♡Scout and Pyro♡
• scouts love language is acts of service and pyro's is quality time.
• someone needs to put all three of you in a psych ward
• sometimes when you all go on a walk in the street Scout will accidentally cause trouble with someone and Pyro will join in and fight them and you either join in or get them out before the cops come.
• oh my god.
• they're pretty fun to be with. Scout is usually a flustered mess whenever Pyro or you show any affection towards him due to the fact he had to fight for affection from his mother as a child. Its new to him, especially by two of the people he adores.
• Pyro and Scout draw together, and whenever your down they will both make you doodles of stuff that makes you happy. They will make your room super comfortable while Pyro gets a bunch of snacks from the fridge, sitting together to get ready for movies!
• You guys have this thing where whenever one of yall are feeling down, Scout goes to buy an insanely terrible movie and the last person to laugh or groan at the movie wins. It really cheers you up.
They're not the best at comforting words, so they show comfort by actions.
They're both pretty clingy! An hour away from you Pyro is already whining while Scout is just trying to make due. But usually they'll still have a good time together, sometimes going on their own dates while your away.
If they go somewhere, they'll get you something from there as a "souvenir" and beg you to come there the next time they go so nobody gets left out.
• Scout loves peppering the both of you with kisses, he doesn't mind that Pyro has a mask usually he'll be silly and blow Pyro a kiss from the distance. It makes the both of you giggle, he's such a goof.
Pyro gives you both mask kisses...Well more like boops. Though if your far into your relationship, day by day he'll start opening up more about himself. He starts by not wearing gloves around you, to lifting his mask up slightly to give you both a proper kiss. (random but I headcannon my boy has a tooth gap :D)
It makes both of your hearts melt to know he trusts you enough to do this, and he's thankful for your patience.
The three of you look very chaotic to other people but alone together you are just real sweet to each other. They both get so calm around you that they don't feel the need to show off or cause chaos, yall just wanna hang out sometimes yk?
♡Engineer, Demoman, and Soldier♡
• Engie's love language is quality time, Demo's is words of affirmation, and Soldier's is acts of service AND quality time.
• goddamnit yall r so cute
• the actual power couple
• Let me describe to you what they are like
Dell's the calm one, he's usually the one getting the three of you out of trouble but he himself loves a little fun sometimes.
Demo is the fun one, he always takes you all out on interesting landmarks and sometimes even dangerous activities that might kill you.
Soldier is the loud one, he will not shut the fuck up. He loves to hear yall talk about your day, loves to gossip about how work has been, but also loves to speak about his achievements and show all three of you off to random people he meets.
• "THIS IS ENGIE! HE HAS 11 PHDS AND HE IS A GENIUS! SMARTER THAN YOULL EVER BE."
"Aw geez Solly, ya don't have to say that..."
And then
"DEMOMAN! BEST FRIEND AND BOYFRIEND, I LOVE HIM. HES VERY SWEET! HE CAN SWOON ANYBODY!"
"Lad...yer makin me blush."
or even
"THIS IS Y/N! ARE YOU SHOCKED BY THEIR GORGEOUSNESS? I AM TOO. DONT GET TOO CLOSE, YOU MIGHT FALL FOR THEM."
"Pfft-Soldier..."
• in general yall r just adorable. They're all so sweet to each other and to you too, yall always eat together and they'll always be there for you if you wanna rant or vent about your day.
All of them are amazing listeners, and good at comforting...how?? How did you get so damn lucky? They'll cuddle up around you as one of them holds you, listening to you talk and ramble about how bad of a day its been.
Soldier will give you a motivational and surprisingly really helpful speech, Demoman will hype you up and tell you it's gonna be okay, and Engie likes to make you your favorite foods to make you feel better.
They're not as touch starved as others may think, but one day they don't see you they start to miss you a lot. Please don't leave them alone for too long, they can go mess around together but it doesn't feel the same with you left out.
♡Sniper and Spy♡
• snipers love language is physical touch and words of affirmation, Spy's is quality time and gift giving.
• you get so spoiled with affection by them
• sniper was always a secluded man, so was spy. But brought together they were amazing....and then your here? The whole relationship is so sweet.
• Sniper will hold your hand any chance he gets, Spy holding your other hand. You three like to go on quiet walks at noon, enjoying the weather and even going to a cafe on the way.
• Spy absolutely spoils the both of you with gifts, expect a gift from him atleast two times a week.
• you guys don't really go to loud areas since Sniper doesn't enjoy them, so your dates are usually real intimate.
I'm talking picnics under a tree as the sun is setting, watching the clouds as the three of you joke and talk about.
Or, romantic dates by the sea...enjoying the scenery and maybe even going for a swim.
You three are the most calm couple out of all of them I'd say.
Even though sniper and spy have many differences, they still are so cute together! they match like puzzle pieces and are great to be with.
• though...there are times those differences do get to them. Sometimes they'd have petty fights over...something. if this does happen, just talk to them both about it and give them some time, they'll just hug it out and it'll be fine then.
• if your ever upset, they will try their best to be there. Sniper will comfort you with the sweetest things you've ever heard, holding you tightly. While Spy gets a reservation at a private restaurant booked for the three of you that night, taking you out and making you forget about your troubles.
♡Heavy and Medic♡
• Heavy and Medic both are acts of service and quality time.
• aw :)
• okay this might be even sweeter than all of them
• the two of them are even more secluded than Sniper and Spy. Medic is usually always in his medbay working away, while Heavy is usually resting, cleaning Sasha, or doing light reading to pass the time.
They're not much talkers unless the topics really interest them, so that's why your here!
The three of you are like that old couple down your street who do the most corny shit ever, knitting for each other except its with medic and heavy and you lmao
• Heavy and Medic teach each other their language, and you get taught too! If you also happen to speak another language, expect them to wanna learn it.
Yall have duolingo sessions and it's the cutest shit ever.
"Okay now say, 'Apa kabar, nama saya' then you say your name."
"...Apa...Kahbar? Nahma saye-"
"Pfft-BAHAHAHHAAHA-"
you laugh your ass off as the two of them are desperately trying to spell what your saying. They end up laughing too! It's a fun thing you three do in as little dates.
(ps what I wrote is read as uh-pah- kuh-bar- nah-ma sa-yuh" it's indonesian!! fun fact otd)
• Heavy likes to write the both of you Russian literature, you both don't quite understand what they mean but after a couple months of studying with him you both melt due to how sweet they are.
• Medic loves to ramble about his experiments, he will never ever ask you to volunteer unless its something that he knows won't hurt either of you.
When Heavy misses the both of you, he will carry you both in his arms and hug yall tightly.
"Heavy has missed you both."
"Aw, I've missed you too babe."
"Ja, its been boring without jou!"
Yall are just really wholesome.
• if your ever upset, truthfully speaking they won't know how to comfort you in words. So they will show it by just being there for you.
Heavy will squeeze your hand while letting you cry into him, as Medic made you tea as it soothes the nerves. They will both just let you cry it all out, not knowing how to reply much.
But the next day, they will just make sure that day is amazing. They will both go out of their way to make sure nothing van ruin your mood for that day to make up for yesterday. Broke your favorite pencil? Heavy will get you a better one. You feel dizzy? Come over to medbay, Medic will prepare and make sure they never bother you again.
They're so sweet it gives you cavities, even though they don't know how to say it, they sure are good at showing you. (I love men sm♡)
Hope u enjoyed!
we need more poly mercs.

Unnecessary ~ A.L.
A/n: This felt... kind of ooc? Idk. Let me know what y’all think lol. Another request done!!
Request: “...Alec lightwood x male reader where the reader is mundane so they are hunting some monster and the reader offers to be bait but Alec being Alec tells him no but the reader does it anyways and Alec saves him. If you also could put in the phrase “why do you care about me so much” “because I love you idiot” I would love you even more because that shit makes me weak.”
Word Count: 4500+
MASTERLIST
Meeting Clary Fray had brought nothing but issues into Alex's life.
He had been perfect before she showed up. Pining over his parabatai, but that wasn't a problem. Jace was oblivious and it was never going to happen. Even if Jace felt the same - which he never would - it wasn't allowed. Alec knew that was a lost cause. He was prepared to handle that.
He was not prepared to handle Clary's friends.
Simon was just annoying and had the worst luck when it came to trouble. Usually it would have made Alec go insane, but compared to Y/n it was nothing.
Nothing could compare to Y/n actually.
That was the problem! This life wasn't made for mundane, and Simon was the biggest and best example of that fact. Granted, Y/n was a lot smarter than Simon was. Simon ended up being turned into a vampire, and Y/n was still stubbornly human. He was self aware enough to stay at the institute when everyone else went on missions. Eventually he started to work with Magnus Bane as a sort of secretary, which put him in more danger - but he was still careful and made sure to protect himself. He stayed uninvolved as much as possible and instead offered comfort to his friends. If they needed a break from Shadowhunter life, they'd go out and drink or stay in and watch movies or something. Y/n was a great listener, and had been found several times being ranted to, only to walk the person who needed advice through a few possibilities before they found something that worked.
Alec should maybe have been a little relieved that Y/n was so good at being support. That he was content to stand on the outside and help with things only a human could, instead of inserting himself in places that he'd only have been a burden. Alec should have maybe even appreciated the effort Y/n put in to helping his friends. His family. Sometimes Y/n even helped Alec directly. Jace finally had a friend who could help him navigate through his trauma and emotions - a feat that had previously been impossible. Izzy had a cooking buddy, and was actually able to make food people wanted to eat when the two were both in the kitchen. She never really learned to cook, but still. Clary still had a person to go to when she needed to be tethered to reality and missed her old life and needed a break from her new one. Simon had a friend to do all of the things he used to do, and help him hold onto the person he used to be as he became someone new. Magnus had a new friend now too, one who couldn't do magic but had taken to learning where everything was and how everything worked. Now Magnus had another set of hands and didn't find himself so alone.
And Alec...
Well Alec still found himself on the verge of wanting to choke the life out of Y/n.
Even when he finally got over the jealousy Clary made him feel about Jace. Even when Simon learned how to use his powers and became an important part of the team. Even when everyone else came to appreciate and even adore Y/n, and had nothing to say but good things about him, Alec and Y/n still seemed to have a thick wall of chill between them.
Y/n tried to ease back and give Alec his space, but that would only worsen Alec's mood in general. If they did spend more time together, Alec's mood in general improved but his cutting comments and dark glares and constant eye rolls became more frequent.
Izzy was the first one to pin point what was going on. After all, she had seen the exact same thing happen for years with Jace.
It was perhaps why she got so excited when Y/n didn't hesitate to show his interest in Alec. He wasn't as obvious and pushy as Magnus (who had flirted with Alec in the beginning, but then had stepped back when he recognized that there was something between Alec and Y/n) but he also wasn't vague or subtle. He was less suggestive and more appreciative. His compliments were sincere and the way he cared and worried was almost... tender. He didn't hesitate to show weakness and vulnerability, which lost often came out when he was worried about Alec. It was very clear that he cared about the Lightwood boy very, very much.
Which is why it was so frustrating to see Alec be so brash to Y/n.
There was an obvious attraction for both of them, and fighting it would only make both of them miserable. Izzy knew why he did - she knew better than anyone what their parents could be like - but that didn't stop her from desperately wanting her brother to be happy.
That's why she was the one who was least supportive when Y/n finally decided to be a little reckless.
They'd ended up at Magnus' place once again, talking about some demon who was targeting men. Magnus had recognized it as a succubus, a demon who fed bu first having sex with their prey and then feeding on the soul right after an orgasm.
Clary blushed. "Stuff like that is real?"
Y/n nodded with Magnus and the other shadowhunters. "They're very rare," Y/n pointed out. "But they love the hormones in the blood right after an orgasm. Your body is full of hormones that make you sleepy and even happy. They only need the blood and flesh like a normal demon but they get addicted to the stuff in the blood after sex, and become a succubus." His face Because a little amused. "Or an incubus, if he's male. There's also talk about classifying non gender specific terms for the species, but that's not the point." He shook his head. "The real point is that demons lien this only feed after sex, and are very VERY good as disguising themselves until the sex has actually started. One they do start, they have huge influence over their prey. They cast spells on themselves - sometimes on their lips so it activates with a kiss, or on their hands so it activated with a touch. Whatever it is, or whether it's inherently developed as they feed more and more on the serotonin from their prey, is actually highly debated. But whatever it is - contact with a succubus basically drugs their prey. Wraps them in happiness and euphoria even before the sec has started. Because of this state of mind the demon can always get away with showing their true self - prey never fight back at this point."
Simon raises an eyebrow. "How do you know all of this?"
Y/n grinned. "I've been reading up on demons recently. I already knew a lot about the stuff we run into all the time - werewolves, vampires, and other downworlders were what I looked into before. But after the whole fairy queen thing I began looking into Fae creatures, which directly lead me to demons. From there I looked into the most interesting categories and..." he laughed, but stopped abruptly at the look Alec shot at him. Y/n cleared his throat. "Sorry. The point is, you guys aren't going to be able to spot this thing until it picks a target."
Magnus cuts in there. "I could create a perfume that will draw in this kind of demon. They work off of smell and try to find people that are already high in serotonin to begin with. So smelling like it will draw them in, almost completely making sure that once you draw someone in, they'll be hooked. What Y/n didn't mention is that these demons have a very important weakness - their tails. They manifest only during sex, and sometimes only for the climax itself. They attach to the prey and suck up all the blood after the deed is done. Which means not only will you not be able to identify the succubus until she's picked a target - you also won't be able to hurt the thing until she shows her tails."
"She has more than one?" Clary asks.
"She can," Jace answered.
Y/n sighed. "The problem is she'll never get that far with a Shadowhunter - your tattoos will give you away. And she'd never engage with a Downworlder either. It would start a huge issue if they started feeding on each other."
Izzy pursed her lips. "So we need bait."
Y/n hesitated a moment. "Well, if the person sees us or we lose then it'll be over. Someone will be dead. It would be much smarter to work with someone who knows we're there. Someone we work with on the regular."
"It's not like we know many humans," Alec cut in.
"In fact," Y/n agreed. "You only know one human." He gave Alec a meaningful look.
Everyone seemed to be upset by that, but Izzy got something out first. "You can't put yourself on the line like that Y/n. You can't defend yourself. If we slipped up and lose you, or come in too late... I mean you'll be right in the middle of the fighting. If we don't kill her first time she could still really hurt you. WE could still hurt you."
Y/n nodded. "But that's how it's going to be with anyone in that room. Putting some random innocent in there who had no idea what they're signing up for is the shittiest thing we can do here. I won't be able to move - I'll be under her spell. I won't be able to dodge attacks or move out of the way or even give advice or anything. If you need me out of the way you'll have to move me yourself. I might even fight you." He shook his head. "I'd rather someone who will be able to wrap their mind around that afterward be in the middle of it. Imagine if some poor mundane who had no idea what this world of ours is, being in the middle of a Shadowhunter and demon fight?" He looked at everyone around the circle, so stubborn and set on his ideas that he wouldn't budge. One at a time, everyone stepped down and accepted that no only was his mind already made up, he was right. Putting some random mundane through that would be terrible.
Everyone agreed...
Except Alec.
"No."
Y/n rolled his eyes. "I'm not going to argue with you when you're being stupid," he snapped. Everyone's eyes went wide. "I'm not putting myself in this situation for any other reason than it's the only option. I won't let you put a random mundane on the chopping block just because you want to protect your friends from being upset, or because you underestimate my abilities. I'm not an idiot and I'm not useless and I won't be pushed around and treated like garbage just because you have a superiority complex against mundanes."
Alec's face went red as his eyes widened. "That's not why I'm against this."
"Then why?" Y/n demanded. In both of their heatedness, they had grown closer until they were almost chest to chest, nose to nose. Alec was much taller than Y/n but Y/n refused to back down and squared up to him without hesitation. It was actually Alec who finally stepped back, returning to where he’d been before. His hands landed on the table, gripping the edge so hard his skin went pale. His teeth ground together, jaw locked and eyes boring into the wood in front of him.
Y/n ignored him. “Okay then.” He turned to the others. “Let’s get going.”
-
It didn’t take long for the succubus to find him. It was obvious who she was. The potion that Magnus had made into a perfume didn’t only attract succubus specifically - it worked as a repellent to mundanes as well. Y/n sat, drink in front of him. His mind raced as he tried not to think too much about Alec.
This was his second glass.
He had failed.
Mercifully a women leaned against the counter. Y/n looked over at her. With his vision cleared of the thing that usually kept mundanes from seeing the underworlders, he could tell immediately that she wasn’t a normal underworlder. There would have been some sort of tell. From what he could see she wasn’t a Warlock either. She looked one hundred percent human, which was a tell enough. The fact that she was immediately pressed against him, eyes scanning his body with hungry lust, was a tell all on its own.
He smiled at her. “Why hello.”
She light up at his interest in her. “I saw you from across the bar. You seem upset. Anything I can do to help?”
Y/n’s head tilted. “How kind of you. I’m really more of a I help you actually.” She grinned at his words. “Mind giving me an order or two?”
Her hand stretched out to him and he took it. He stood, moving her hand to his upper arm so that he was escorting her out of the bar instead of holding her hand like a school boy. She seemed to like his decision and lead him outside to her car.
It was a very short drive. All of her victims were from the bar they’d just been to, and Y/n could see why now. Her little apartment was extremely close to it.
He slipped out of the car, coming around to open her door. She watched him, curious, until she realized what he was doing. “What a gentleman,” she purred, taking his hand and letting him help her out.
“I try my best.” This time as they walked he kept her hand up, as if still guiding her. She giggled, obviously having fun with his goofiness. Once inside the apartment complex he let her hand drop and she leaned into his side. They walked in step, his arm around her shoulders. They only had to go up one flight of stairs to get to her apartment.
From there things progressed pretty quickly.
Her lips were on his and he felt his mind go foggy. His hand rested against her cheek and under his palm, her face... changed.
There stood Alec. He smiled at Y/n, leaning down and brushing their noses once before going in for the kiss. Y/n gasped, melting into it immediately. He couldn’t help himself. Not against Alec.
Alec’s fingers moved against the buttons on Y/n’s shirt, pulling them off quickly. There was an eagerness about the movements and Y/n laughed. “Excited, are we?”
“Always,” Alec responded. “I’ve been wanting this so long. Been wanting you so long.”
It sounded wrong. Slightly off. The thought that Alec wouldn’t talk like this passed so quickly through Y/n’s head before it was forcefully shoved away. Everything was okay. This made sense.
Alec loved Y/n.
They kissed again and Y/n felt his back press against the wall. He sighed, his hands going into Alec’s hair. When Alec’s lips moved from Y/n’s, to his neck instead, it was bliss. Y/n’s head fell back on the wall and he hummed, smiling. His eyes were almost blurry, seeing colors of pink and purple and red swirling in his vision. Yellow and orange swirled and there was... something. Something thin that swished back and forth, with a sharp point at the end that opened like a blooming flower. He tried o focus on it but then Alec whispered Y/n’s name and immediately it was impossible to notice anything else.
As Alec fumbled with Y/n’s belt, the door busted open. Alec’s head snapped around to see who it was but Y/n only stood there, propped up against the wall at this point.
There was a hiss, so inhuman that it sounded weird coming from Alec’s mouth. But that’s where it had come from. Y/n’s head tilted, his eyes narrowing as his head swam. “Sweetheart,” Alec whispered. Y/n shivered at the pet name. “Protect me.”
Y/n’s head moved so that his gaze could find out who Alec meant. He took in four... things. Twisted and disgusting. Y/n had only heard of these things before but he knew a demon when he saw one.
Alec pulled Y/n off of the wall, shoving him forward. But Y/n was so disoriented, so twisted around, that he simply turned back to Alec, his eyebrows pushed together. “I... don’t understand.”
Alec rolled his eyes. “Why are they always so useless?”
No that... that was wrong...
Y/n watched as Alec pushed past him, toward the demons. He turned to watch as they all clashed in battle. It was blurry and didn’t make sense. Alec’s limbs kept getting too long, his face a little off, his teeth too sharp and his eyes too bright. The demons didn’t fought with knives and a bow and arrow and a whip. Or... were their limbs just sharper? Longer? Y/n couldn’t be sure.
He stumbled back, shirt half undone and face twisted with confusion. A torn, unbalanced way about him. A hesitation and lack of surity.
All of that shattered and turned to nothin when Alec began to lose. In all the chaos of his mind, Y/n knew one thing. He could never stand by and watch Alec Lightwood die.
He flung himself forward as Alec lay on the ground, about to be stabbed by one of the demons. Y/n rolled on top, arms landing on either side of Alec. He screamed, “NO!” His body was shaking and he shook his head, blinking wildly. He could t see it think or-
Something sharp sunk into his gut. At first he thought the demon had stabbed him, but it hadn’t come from his back. It had come from his front.
Alec had stabbed him.
Y/n groaned. “Why?” He whispered.
In bullet time, Alec grinned and suddenly the world melted around the both of them. The face that had been Alec’s wasn’t anymore. It was the glowing eyes and sharp teeth and dusty skin of a demon, caked in blood and enjoying Y/n’s pain. He buckled. He gave up. He fell to his side, his ears ringing and his brain fuzzy and his head aching. And god the pain. White hit and raging. He was mumbling, but he couldn’t hear what he was saying.
Someone scooped him up. He fought weakly but the pain was too much and he stopped. He looked up and saw Alec. His eh vetoes came together. “Please,” Y/n begged. “Don’t show me him again. Anyone else, but not him.” He pulled away from Alec, closing his eyes. And someone else pulled him a different direction. This time it was Jace. Y/n relaxed. “Thank you.” Jace was saying something but Y/n couldn’t hear. He could barely see.
In fact, after a second, the world was swallowed in black and he couldn’t see at all.
-
When Y/n woke up, it was in the Institute. He sat up, expecting a headache but not getting one. The world wasn’t fuzzy or spinning, but trying to remember back was impossible. He could remember what he said and felt and some of what he saw. He knew the succubus had appeared to him as Alec. That all made sense. The spell they put on their prey - it must have been illusion magic. Pulling on your deepest love and strongest loyalties.
Y/n was in love with Alec.
He could feel what it had been like to kiss him. To run fingers through his hair. To see his smile, and hear his praises. Y/n wondered if it would really feel like that, or if the illusion didn’t go that far.
The door opened. “You’re awake.”
Y/n looked up and saw Clary. “Yeah.” She seemed relieved. When she smiled, he returned it. “Just you visiting?”
She nodded. “But only because they noticed your vitals go up. Izzy’s been tracking you personally. She asked me to come and get you. Alec wants to speak with you.”
Y/n sighed. “Yeah fair enough.” He slid out of bed carefully, surprised nothing ached. There was a little soreness but a lot less than he had expected. “How long have I been out?” He asked as he walked up to Clary. They began to walk to Alec’s office together.
“A week.”
Y/n went silent. They’d really been out that long? Holy shit.
They came to Alec’s office in silence. Clary only squeezed Y/n’s hand before leaving, and Y/n’s hunch was proven when he walked inside and saw no one else was there except Alec, who sat in his chair. He was leaning over something, his fingers pressed against the side of his forehead and an especially nasty glare on his face. It seemed he was trying to read something but was failing miserably.
When the door opened Alec looked up. His glare deepened. “You’re awake.”
Y/n just nodded. “You needed to talk to me?”
Alec stood. “I’m banning you from the Institute.”
At that Y/n started. “What?”
“Be grateful I’m not hunting down a memory potion,” Alec snapped.
Y/n’s eyes narrowed and he took several steps forward. “You can’t just rip me away because I got a little hurt. We knew what would happen, I knew the risks!”
Alec’s eyes narrowed. His voice didn’t rise, it just stayed that soft, gravely tone, making Y/n feel sinking dread that he may have already solidified his stance. “A little hurt? You were out for a week Y/n.”
“But I’m okay-“ Y/n began.
“You almost weren’t!” Finally Alec shouted, his hands curling into fists.
“But I am! And I’m so grateful it was me and not some other random mundane! I know how to handle what I went through and-“
“No,” Alec cut off.
“You’re not my dad you can’t just push me around!” Y/n seethed.
Alec fumed, stepping around his desk. “I am the head of this institute - one that was made of mundane’s. You don’t belong here, you never should have been here.”
Y/n’s eyes waters. “Are you sure?” His hands curled into fists. “Or do you just not want me here?”
Alec was quiet for a very long time. “Why did you insist on going?”
That turn took Y/n by surprise. “Because no On else should have-“
“No.” Alec looked at Y/n in the eyes. “They said... you said my name. What did you see in there?”
It was Y/n’s turn to be on guard. “It doesn’t matter. I volunteered because I care about the people that thing was hurting and I cared about making sure you guys stopped it. You wouldn’t have been able to-“
“Who did you feel so protective over that you jumped in the way?” Alec interrupted. “Clary could have killed you. Almost did.” His voice was weirdly gentle, but probing.
Y/n shrugged, giving up. “Why does it matter?”
Alec was quiet again for a moment. “It wasn’t Clary or Simon, you’ve made fun of both of them for risking themselves for each other in the past. And it wasn’t Izzy, the succubus was too tall when it shifted.” At the moon of panic in Y/n’s eyes, Alec explained, “No distinct shape to it. No face or skill color. Shadowhunters have never really seen succubus mid trance like that, so all we can do is theorize. We think it changed physical shape to then layer an illusion on top. More real that way. If we’re right, it couldn’t have been Magnus either. And you’re not really close to any of the other shadowhunters or downworlders.” His jaw worked.
Y/n looked away, slipping his hands into his pocket. “It was you, Alec.”
Silence again, but this time very brief. “Why would you do that for me?”
Y/n looked at him in surprise. A succubus had appeared to him as his deepest desire, as Alec, and it wasn’t obvious why? How she could seduce him and lull him so completely? “Because I...” he saw panic flash in Alec’s eyes. “Care about you,” he finished.
That only seemed to agitate Alec more. “Why?” He stepped close, invading Y/n’s space completely. It was hard to think with Alec this close, but Y/n couldn’t muster the strength to move away. ��Is that why you keep trying to help us? Why you’re always around? Why you stayed even though Simon became a vampire? Why you talk to Izzy and Jace so much even though you owe them nothing? Why you help everyone around here so much?”
“Not completely,” Y/n whispered, his voice hoarse.
“Not completely?” Alec pushed.
“Not completely,” Y/n insisted. He could feel stress rising in his chest, constricting his lungs.
“Why?” Alec demanded.
Y/n snapped. “Why WHAT?”
“Why do you care about me so much?” His question was demanding, almost hysterical. They locked eyes and it was clear that Alec was feeling that same pressure and anxiety.
“Because I love you.” Y/n stood there, shoulders dropped and hands open weakly at his side. He looked at Alec with so much fear and vulnerability and honesty that Alec didn’t even consider not believing him.
He kissed Y/n instead.
The kiss took Y/n by surprise. Not only did Y/n not expect it, the actual kiss was so similar to how kissing Alec-succubus had been. It was almost identical. Y/n already knew how to mold against him, how to kiss him back. Where to put his hands and how to pull him closer. Y/n’s hands wound in Alec’s hair and it felt exactly the same. Y/n was astonished.
Alec leaned away, and once again it was quiet. The silence was broken with heavy breathing and thick tension. “Don’t leave the institute,” Alec begged quietly.
Y/n sighed. “You’re so confusing, Lightwood.”
Alec actually laughed. “I... I’m sorry.” He winced and seemed tl back peddle a little, getting closed off again. “I- I don’t-“ he swallowed, looking at Y/n. “I got advice recently from a good friend of both of us. He told me to go for what I wan for once. To live for myself. And I didn’t... I wouldn’t have. But seeing you in danger? Seeing you throw yourself over that stupid demon and almost die because of Clary, and then actually almost die because of the stupid succubus...” he glowered, but this time his attention turned to where Y/n had been stabbed. Alec pulled Y/n’s shirt up, the back of his hand tracing what was now a scar. “I’ve been so worried... we all have been.” He swallowed, looking back at Y/n’s eyes.
Y/n smiled, relaxing into the wall. “I’m okay. But you have to be okay with my intervening when I’m needed.”
Alec sighed. “Fine.”
Y/n chuckled softly. “Fine.”
There was still so much they had to work through, but whatever came they would finally face it together. With Alec at his side, anything seemed possible. They’d be just fine, there was no doubt. They’d already faced months of pining and a hypnotizing demon, what else could top that?
...Alec’s parents might, honestly.
But they could face that too. Eventually.

"You wore that just for me?" - Tsukishima x Reader
a/n: reposting this as i had to take it down due to the banner. this fic is an edited and mostly rewritten old piece and it’s one of my favorites! smut after the cut.
tw: hard dom Tsukki, s/m dynamic, degradation, dumbification, rough oral (m receiving), fingering, overstim, mindbreak, aftercare
wordcount: 2.4k
"You're such a needy slut. I bet your cunt is already drenched and I haven't even touched you yet." You knew you were in trouble from the way Tsukishima smirked, a devilish glint in his eyes. "What, cat got your tongue, little baby? You want me so much that you won't even wait for your dessert to arrive?"
"Kei, what if someone hears you? Y-You shouldn't say things like these in public," your cheeks felt on fire, his words stirring something deep in your core. You rubbed your thighs together under the table to relieve a bit of the pressure, your needy cunt aching to be touched. Even that little bit of friction felt so good, but you needed more.
"Don't think I don't know what you're doing, I can see your legs shifting. I know you're trying to get off. And you say I'm the pervert? Aren't you scared they'll notice how hungry you are for my cock?" You felt his hand rub your knee, his fingers pinching painfully at your exposed skin. "Tell me, baby, would you rather have the chocolate mousse or my fingers fucking you deep inside your cunt?"
You knew when you got dressed for your date that your outfit was going to drive Tsukishima crazy. It was his favorite color and the cut of the dress hugged your hips just right. But you still didn't expect him to start teasing you like this in the middle of the restaurant. His words were sending shivers down your spine directly to your core and the last thing you wanted was for people to notice how flustered you were.
"I don't think it's polite to leave before our order arrives, Kei." There was a note of hesitation in your voice and judging by the grin on his face, you could tell he noticed. You hoped he’d let it go, but you knew him better than that. Oh, he would use every last bit of ammunition. You braced yourself, his grip on your knee tightening, nails digging into the supple skin just enough to pull a soft mewl from you.
"So you think it's more polite to parade that shapely ass of yours in that low-cut dress, hmm? I can perfectly see your every curve, you could as well be naked." How you wished you could wipe that confident smirk off his face. But you couldn't, not when you could barely look at him, too embarrassed to hold his teasing gaze for more than a few seconds. "Tell me, did you wear that dress so everyone could see how much of a slut you are, or did you just want to get my attention?"
"Kei, I thought you would like it," you confessed reluctantly after a moment, your eyes darting to his to gauge his reaction. He looked pleased. Too pleased.
Tsukishima lifted his hand from your leg and grinned, a hint of something darker in his tone as he spoke “I’ll ask for the check and for the dessert to go. I think someone needs to learn what happens when they try to tease me.”
He ordered a taxi and the whole way to your apartment his fingers would wander up and down your leg, getting closer and closer to the hem of your panties. Whenever you looked up at him though, Tsukishima was looking out the window with a disinterested look on his face.
He feigned indifference so well that you would think the way he played with you did nothing for him. But you could see the outline of his cock twitching in his pants whenever he brushed his hand against the cloth separating it from your heat. If only he moved his fingers a little bit up so it would graze your clit. You wanted his touch so badly you thought you were going crazy.
Still, he gave you no satisfaction. But once inside your apartment, he grabbed your hand and pulled you to his chest, tightening his arms around you. You gulped. “Where do you think you’re running to, baby? There’s no getting out of this. You wanted my attention and now you got it, pretty little slut. Yeah, you know just what you're doing strutting that ass around, don't play coy now."
He released his hold on you, but before you could do anything he grabbed you by your hair, commanding in a saccharine tone "Now, be a good girl and get on your knees, I know how desperate you are for my cock.”
You felt your folds grow wetter at his words. You knew he was right, you were a slut. Otherwise, why would the way he degraded you make you into such a needy mess? Why did you want so badly to push him, to have him take control of you?
"I need to get changed Kei, can’t this wait a bit?” You knew that disobeying him when he was in this mood spelled punishment for you, but punishment was exactly what you craved. You wanted him to use you, make you his little sex toy.
“Now, now, you know what happens to whores who talk back, don’t you?” in a flash his hand was between your legs, middle finger probing at your covered slit. “I can already feel how soaked you are. Don’t try to play me, we both know you want to choke on my cock.” His other hand reached for your neck and with a sadistic smile on his face he clasped his fingers around it painfully, cutting your blood flow. “Tell me, will you get on your knees or do I have to make you?”
You let out a whimper, making a desperate attempt to nod. He loved seeing you like this, his smart and beautiful girl reduced to a dumb slut at his fingertips. The way your eyes widened and your mouth opened and closed without making a sound, pliant body shaking and squirming, it sent pleasurable jolts to his cock.
Once he finished admiring you, he released your neck, eyes still locked on yours as he started to unzip his pants, freeing his erection. You kneeled, looking up at him “Open your mouth and suck it”. Without putting up any resistance you parted your lips, taking his throbbing cock inside your hot mouth. His precum coated your tongue and his scent filled your nostrils. It was intoxicating, you felt your panties getting drenched with your juices.
He grabbed your hair, pushing you deeper against his shaft, making you choke on his length. Your neck hurt, burning from the way he choked you. His tip hit the back of your throat with each thrust and he roughly pulled at your hair, fucking your face with little regard for how it felt for you. He was using you. But why was it tuning you on? You wanted him to touch you, craved to feel more of him, wanted to be used. But mostly you wanted him to help you alleviate some of the pressure that had been piling up in your core for the past hour.
“Don’t assume I don’t know what you want, baby. I can see you looking at me with those pleading eyes, like a famished little cockslut. Is pleasing me not doing enough for your hungry cunt, hmm?” you whimpered at his words, his pace picking up “If you want me to indulge you, show me that you’re a good girl. Take my whole cock down that slutty throat of yours and I’ll make you cum.”
After a couple more minutes, Tsukishima stopped his thrusts with a smirk and let you take control of the movements. You braced yourself, taking his cock deeper and deeper, inch by inch, desperate to please him. Tears welled up in your eyes from the strain and before long they were running down your face, ruining your perfect makeup. He pulled his length out of your abused throat and cooed, cupping your cheeks with a twisted smile “Now, that’s my good little slut. It wasn't that hard now, was it? Go lie on the bed and wait – no touching yourself.”
A few moments later he was between your legs, fingers brushing your thighs as you moaned, his feathery touches setting your skin ablaze. “K-Kei, I-I need you, p-please, I can’t t-take the teasing. I-I need more!” you begged as your hands gripped the sheets.
“Tsk, tsk, you should know by now that telling me not to tease you will just make me want to tease you more. I'm disappointed, I thought you would be smarter than this. I have nothing else to do tonight and I can just stay here and touch, fondle, kiss and fuck you to the brink of orgasm until you’re begging for me to make you cum and then stop. Rinse and repeat. I know I said I will reward you, but I didn’t say I would be making it easy for you, no, no, no,” he chuckled.
Reaching the hem of your panties he pulled them down, slowly, making sure to leave lingering touches on your skin with each movement. Every one of his movements and actions were designed to drive you insane. You were beginning to regret wearing that dress.
You felt a finger gently brush against your clit and then slowly sliding between your sopping folds. “K-Kei, please," you cried loudly, the ache in your core becoming unbearable. The pain in your abused throat dulled, the pleasure in your cunt overshadowing it.
“You’re fucking drenched. So pathetic. You’ll make a mess of the sheets at this pace. Are you sure you don’t just want me to stop?” He laughed at the way your eyes widened, tears threatening to spill once more.
“P-please, Kei, I don’t care about the sheets,” you pleaded. You needed this, you didn't know how much more teasing you could take before your sanity slipped from you.
Gathering your slick, he pushed the finger slowly inside you, feeling each ridge of your walls as they instantly started tightening around it.
“Don’t tell me you’re such a needy slut that you’re coming from just my finger. I’ll have to punish you in a different way then," he shoved another finger inside you, picking up the pace while his thumb was rubbed at your clit. You came undone in moments, moans erupting from your lips, body thrashing violently as your juices spilled all over Tsukishima’s hand and on the bed. Still, he didn’t slow down, finger-fucking you through your orgasm. He was nothing if not determined to break you tonight.
Without letting up, he leaned over you, taking a clothed nipple into his mouth, tongue rolling over the sensitive bud before he sank his teeth into the soft flesh. You screamed, you could feel the coil in your stomach tightening more and more, the high from your previous climax barely having passed.
“P-please, slow down, it’s too much,” your words were barely intelligible between the mix of moans and cries. Tsukishima didn't care anyways. You were responding so nicely to him, your body going into overdrive and he didn't even put his cock inside you yet.
Adding a third digit, he sped up his pace stretching your walls even more. “K-Kei” you cried out his name as an orgasm washed over you once more, your body contracting violently beneath Tsukishima. You could barely control your muscles, your eyes shut close and tongue falling out of your open mouth.
“I hope you’re ready for the main course, baby. I’ll use that cunt of yours, watch how it desperately sucks in my cock. You're so pathetic, I wonder if I'll even feel anything with how fucking wet you are.”
You were delirious, barely making out his words. Popping his fingers out of your sopping hole, he cleaned them on the already messy sheets and placed your shaking legs on his shoulders. “I think you had enough of a break, what do you say?” he chuckled as he pushed his length inside you. You loved it, the mix of pain and pleasure from the stretch. He knew you couldn't answer, but talking to you while he fucked you dumb was giving him a twisted satisfaction. He relished watching you struggle to understand what he said, too busy taking his fat cock up your cunt.
Your tongue was lolling out of your mouth, eyes rolling at the back of your head with each thrust, hands frantically gripping the sheets, desperately trying to steady yourself as the array of sensations was overtaking your body. Tsukishima’s thumb was back on your clit, rubbing, your walls clenching around his cock and milking as you kept cumming and cumming around it. He reached out his hand, palm clasping firmly around your neck once more.
“Dumb sluts don’t need air, do they, baby? They just need to be railed, fucked until cock is the only thing left on their mind. How many times have you cum already, four? Five? You enjoy it when I choke you? Like giving me complete control over you, hmm?” soft whimpers were all you could muster, your body too sensitive.
You felt Tsukishima’s cock getting harder inside you, his cockhead smacking your cervix. You were spent and your mind was blank, consciousness slipping, but your cunt was still reacting to his cock moving in and out of you, still squeezing him with each thrust. Through the haziness you felt your climax approaching and bursting yet again as his movements came to a halt. Hot cum spilled from your overused cunt, mixed with your own juices.
He released his hold on your neck and placing a gentle kiss on your forehead. He collapsed on top of you, trying to shift his weight so he wouldn’t crush your much smaller body under him. Your chests were heaving, exhaustion settling in your bones.
Tsukishima lightly brushed the hair from your face, placing it behind your ear. “You did so good, baby," he cooed, voice soft and a gentle smile on his face. "I’ll come clean you up and then move you to the couch so I can change the sheets. Then, we can cuddle, okay?" You nodded, barely aware of what was happening around you.
"Was I too rough?" he asked later after he got under the sheets next to you.
"No, I would've used the safe word," your voice was laced with exhaustion as you spoke. He cradled you in his arms, gently rocking your body and planting sweet kisses on your hair. His good girl.

Rewriting my Diluc housewife thoughts but I saved it in my notes this time, but I made it infinitely more sexist than it already was before bc 1) I was in the kink mood and 2) the spirits of writing gods possessed my body and told me that is the way all Diluc content should be, so, this is major 1950s-ish housewifey horrendously misogynistic shit, you've been warned. Like, even *I* looked back over this and was like "wow this is vile" which is kinda saying something for me so, putting the nastier parts under cut for the sake of my followers' eyes ----------- I was thinking about the post a while back about Diluc reforming a criminal darling - a thief around Mondstadt that's been on a crime spree and of course he catches wind of that and goes to defeat the perpetrator (surprisingly very easy? How is a thief this weak?) and haul the bastard off to jail except... What's this? Said criminal is actually just some girl and not a gross ugly bastard?? This changes things. Clearly, this was not an intentional act of malice or greed, but rather, he, master of criminal psychology™, rationalizes that the world is far too cruel for unwifed girls that have no one to depend on, a cold terrible place, so you must have been driven to these actions out of desperation. You had no provider, no caretaker, which are needs. How could you possibly be expected to provide a means of living for yourself?? This is just the consequences of the unfairness of the world. However, things all work out in the end. You need to be taken care of and restrained from these self-destructive choices by force (since you cannot recognize how bad it is, not that you're expected to, it's natural that you have poor perception, that's why you need a man to make choices for you), and he needs a wife. This solution benefits all parties.
He is, however, a rather dense man, and doesn't really think to like, tell you that. Or tell you anything. He's too lost in thought in his planning -- gonna get you new clothes to replace your ragged ones, gonna have to rearrange the guard schedule so they can watch the house better, all that -- and just kinda slings you up and over his shoulder without a word. Ignores you kicking and hitting because it doesn't really hurt or anything, you're too weak for that. Just says he’ll explain in detail later, but don’t worry, you’re not going to jail. He’s just taking you home. This is better, he says. Stop struggling so much, what, you want to go to jail? No? Then be still. And you don't recognize that it's good for you yet, but again, that's expected. In a better time or society, you would have been married off sooner, and prevented from ever falling victim to your own decision making to begin with, but the world isn't perfect and you can be forgiven for it. You're not responsible for your own actions since you can't comprehend them. It's frustrating and he sighs a bit over it, but that's just the way things are. You'll be happy in the long run, even if it takes a while, you're naturally programmed for a better lifestyle he has in mind. And, really, he's glad you weren't married off, because if you were then he never would have had you, so even though it was technically unideal, the stars align and the universe works out things perfectly. It's all the more of a sign that this was fate and you were made for him. The issue is that a hardened criminal darling is... Not the ideal candidate for a housewife. To some extent, he's right that the criminal underworld hardens a person, you can't survive in that realm if you're submissive or weak willed. And criminal darling certainly is not. Loud mouthed, opinionated, argumentative, bad attitude, defiant and aggressive and very much unafraid. A complete loose cannon. All very unfavorable traits. Worst of all, very much unaccepting of and ungrateful for the privilege of a second chance and being graciously granted the opportunity for a better life. Lots of bad behaviors.
The cursing is a problem. It's not very... Wife-like. Gives off a bad image, you know. Especially since said cursing is usually directed at him at a very loud volume with a snarl and getting all up in his face to tell him he's fucking insane and a bastard. To be honest, the worst part isn't the words themselves, it's the fact that you are so unafraid to be defiant and so fiery that is the primary issue. You disobey very deliberately. Little acts of pettiness. Being mean to the maids who are so graciously trying to teach you how to cook (at his direction), since you had no idea how to (and nearly burned his house down as a result). The first time you were mean and bitter and that's how you learned they report back to him about how you behaved. It did not go over well.
Intentionally burning food. Once you somehow found a bottle in a cabinet somewhere in the mansion and put rat poison in his food, made him sick. Muttering a sarcastic whoops and shoving a vase off to crash and shatter on the floor. Early on you refused to wear all the nice dresses you were generously given and even tried to go through his clothes to find something to wear, which was kinda cute since it was way too big, but still. You mutter and grumble under your breath every time you're given a command. The most important thing is sex, though. You know, your job. One of your only real responsibilities. He has a very stressful job. It's only reasonable that he can expect to come home to his sweet, loving little wife with open arms and equally open legs. You've probably fucked around a bit right? For money, for favors, for intel, you get the idea, lots of ties to criminal gangs to earn their trust. So, if you do it for something so insignificant, how much more does he deserve it for taking care of you fully? You should -- and you will, with time -- drop to your knees the second he walks through the door. But instead, sigh, you fight and whimper and cover your face in shame after you spasm and cum, and worst of all, you actively try not to cum. You shouldn't feel ashamed of that, it's good, he says. Sure, you may not be officially married (since the laws of Mondstadt unfortunately require that whole "consent" thing for both parties, ugh), but, he's basically your husband right? So, it's perfectly normal, you're supposed to cum for him. Maybe once you're all knocked up you'll be even hornier, and less shameful. He actually wasn't expecting you to be this bad. Incredibly stubborn and prideful. Literally the exact opposite traits of a good wife, you know, submissive and humble and obedient. He kinda thought that it was like... automatic. That once he just kinda shoved you in the right environment, it would be like flipping a switch right? Apparently not. But no matter. It can be changed, with effort and time. You're worth it. See, you're not supposed to backtalk him, you're supposed to smile and do what you're told without question. You're supposed to submit and obey, and instead you seem hellbent on pissing him off out of spite - and frankly, you're doing a good job of achieving that. Every time you defy him it sparks an irritation he can't describe, worse than he'd normally get from just being snarled at by anyone - no, something about being disrespected by someone he feels is beneath him makes him much, much angrier than it would be if it were, say, one of the business partners who get snappy and argumentative very frequently. He could break you and it would be easy, don't you know that? You stomp and you hit him and you yell, but clearly you process that you have to look up to look him in the eye, you have to realize how much smaller you are. You hit him even though you have to know by now he'll just grab your wrists, and like always you'll be unable to even hope of pulling out of his grip, the strength difference between you two is so great. There's no way you don't realize all that, yet you continue to behave the way you do. The inferiority is so blatantly obvious, but you act as if it's not. He spends a lot of time contemplating the source of this, the cause of your behavior, it occupies his thoughts. It's like... You resent him for something. Could it possibly be kidnapping you and keeping you as a glorified sex slave? No, no, that's not it. It's something else, yes. Are you just bitter about being inferior in, you know, every conceivable way? Is that it? The criminality for you was compensation to make you feel powerful, perhaps. You have a complex. You resent him not for anything he's done, but because you know he's stronger and smarter and generally superior to you. You don't want to accept it. You're prideful when you shouldn't be. You're supposed to be humble and content with your inferiority. Yeah, that's it. You just have a negative perception of the lifestyle you're supposed to have. Maybe some event in your life or someone else warped your view of things. You don't realize how happy you'd be if you just accepted it. Yes, if you submitted to it, if you swallowed your pride and actually accepted your place, you'd find you would be very happy, you just don't know that. Or maybe, your brain can't grasp something like that. After all, that's the reason you're supposed to be the submissive party of the two of you, you're not as bright or perceptive (says the densest man alive). You have to be... Led. Guided. So he says it. He is, again, a dense man. He does not really think about the fact that perhaps blatantly confronting you with the epiphany he thinks he's had and specifically using the words inferior and weak and small is probably not going to make you very happy. You get bitchy and bratty and try to hit him and he sighs because, see, this is exactly what he's talking about. You reacting the way you did only confirms you do have a complex, he says. So, how could he go about... reconditioning? He is not the most creative man, but thankfully it's a rather easy problem to solve. If you're reminded of a reality often enough, you have to accept it. For starters, using physical strength against you. Maybe that will metaphorically open your eyes. Holds you down in place when you're hitting him like you do, firmly bending you over a counter or whatever and just holding you in place. Come on, try to get up, try to push him off. You snarl and claw at the marble and push will all your strength, but he doesn't budge, not until you politely apologize and ask him to let you up. If you're being difficult and not going where he tells you to, well, he can just sling you up over his shoulder and carry you. If you're fighting being fucked he can just flip you over and press your face into the mattress and hold you still, and you can't help but take the brutal reality that you're basically a ragdoll to him, that is, physically overpowering you doesn't even require trying. It helps to knock you down a peg, remind you of your place and maybe get you to swallow that pride a bit. The orgasms and fucking have a similar effect -- every time you can't help but feel like he has a power over you. And really, he kinda does. Every time you lay there still panting and shivering in aftershock, the shame comes swarming in, all the obscene noises you made and the way you came undone under the person that treats you like property. Even if the rational part of you knows better, you can't help but feel like in a way it's like you let him win, allowed yourself to more or less prove him right. Maybe you'll learn better if you're in more humiliating positions. Stuck getting rammed from behind, hand forcing your face down and ass up. Actually correcting bad behaviors requires more direct approaches, so he takes the... Old fashioned route. After all, it's pretty much guaranteed to work. You don't listen to words, you don't listen to reason, but you'll certainly listen to handprints and belt welts on your ass. It's the first time you really, truly break, and that brings him a lot of satisfaction. The first time you really cry and whimper and beg and apologize so profusely it feels like you mean it for once. Granted, for a while you just persist in your bad behaviors and even try to run when you see him sigh and take the belt off, but you never get far. And, most notably, you actually fix your behaviors, with enough reminders. At one point, the next time you start being bad and get to bitching and snarling and putting up a fight, you catch the look on his face and, for once, you shut your mouth and look down and mumble an apology by default. See, you're learning. Speaking of, you still have that major issue with backtalking him. You're supposed to submit to him and acknowledge his authority over you. So he gets firm. Grabs you by the jaw and forces you to look him in the eye and reminds you that you will *not* get an attitude with him. You *will* show some respect. You say yes sir and no sir and do what you're told. And if you forget, he can give you a reminder, if you want that. But you shake your head with fear in your eyes, say you don't want that. It makes you mad. You want to lash back, but you swallow your pride and mutter a fine - before realizing the mistake, violating the rule you were just reminded of. You stammer out a yes sir but it's already too late. He has to control himself too, not let his anger get the better of him. He speaks in a way that isn't snarling and mean, but rather firm, cold, a flat tone that asserts dominance and demands respect. But... still wants you to like him. So he has to be nice, too. After all, you'll learn better if you're rewarded for being good, right? So you can get little rewards. Words of affirmation. A pat to the head. He'll buy you something you want, let you drink a bit (since, as a thief, of course, you had a problem with that before you came home, but that had to be corrected too, since drunkenness isn't very befitting). And sooner or later he does have a really good little wife. He's proud of you. You smile and obey commands without complaining. He can come home every day, and rather than hearing a long report from the staff about how much trouble you caused that day, instead you have food and smiles and sweet affection waiting on him, you hug him when he walks through the door. You're polite and sweet to the various business partners and guests that come through -- you don't speak to them without permission though, of course, and you look down at the ground so you don't make eye contact with another man. People say he's lucky and how they wish they had a wife that was so outwardly affectionate to them as you are to him, always clinging to him physically. And you don't complain or every object to anything, you just smile and say yes and do it. It makes him happy in a weird way he can't quite articulate. A warm swell of pride, a feeling of success. You have vague memories of a time when you were breaking into houses just to scrape by, not knowing when you'd eat next, not knowing where you'd sleep. It's kind of a fuzzy memory now. You don't have to worry about those things anymore, and you're a lot happier this way.

Learning Styles - [Reid x Reader]
Summary: Reader has worked hard to get to the FBI, but a misunderstanding has her feeling insecure.
Pairing: Spencer Reid / Fem!Reader
Word Count: 2.5k
Genre: Fluff
Rating: PG
Content Warning: Mention of normal criminal minds stuff briefly.
A/n: I got these two requests and they were so similar I decided to combine them. I hope that’s okay, but I feel like the stories would have been almost identical.
Requests: - I have a fic suggestion. Reader pretends to be dumb but is actually really smart. I’m thinking of that quote about marilyn ”you have to be really smart to pretend to be dumb”. One day spencer realizes that reader is smarter than she lets people know.
- Hi! Can I request a spencer reid x reader fic where reader isn't great with numbers but brilliant with behaviour and humanities (i.e. literature, history, sociology, up to you)? Maybe a dash of insecurity to spice things up?
-- Learning Styles --
My favorite professor in college told me that everyone learns differently; what works for one person won’t work in the same way for another. We are all different human beings that are shaped in different ways.
I had always been oddly insecure about my intelligence level. One of my earliest memories was my mother yelling at me while I sat at the kitchen table when I was in first grade. I was the only kid in my class who still hadn’t learned how to read. I just didn’t understand. All of my friends were progressing so much quicker than me and my mother was losing patience.
It wasn’t until my grandmother stepped in that everything changed. My elementary school teacher was training children to read by memorizing sight words, a concept I didn’t understand. When my grandmother sat down and taught me phonics. I distinctly remember everything snapping into place.
I was in 1st grade and reading at a 7th-grade level by Christmas. Once I finally understood my learning style, I really began to thrive.
But no matter what I did, I could still hear my mother yelling at me, telling me I was stupid.
In my line of work, I see just how much the throw away comments that parents make can shape a child’s development. Luckily, those comments just made me a bit insecure, not a murderer.
Up until I was 22, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do beyond this desire I had to help people. SSA David Rossi had come to guest lecture in one of my abnormal psych classes during undergrad. After I heard him speak, I was done. I couldn’t have done anything else with my life. I had obtained my master’s in psychology before I joined the FBI.
It took some time, but I was finally assigned to the Behavioral Analysis Unit at Quantico. I was so excited on my first day that I remember my hands physically shaking.
Until they weren’t.
I can still remember my first day so clearly. SSA Hotchner had introduced me to the team, saving the “best” for last.
“And this is Dr. Spencer Reid,” he had said. “He’s our expert on…well, everything.”
Reid was my age and he had his Ph.D. I remember feeling awed by him.
Until I didn’t.
"I hold 3 Ph.D.'s in Chemistry, Engineering, and Mathematics. I also have BAs in psychology and sociology."
I remember my jaw almost hitting the floor. While I was impressed by him, I wasn’t insecure about my place on the team.
Until I was.
My grandmother may have helped me master reading, which opened the door to me mastering anything else I put my mind to…except math.
I was fine at statistics, luckily. You couldn’t get a psych degree without a ton of statistics work. But statistics was different, I could see the practical use of statistics. I just couldn’t wrap my head around calculus or algebra.
On my first case with the team, Reid had calculated some insane mathematical equations on the whiteboard, running down the probabilities and applying a mathematical formula to the unsub’s behavior.
It wasn't until later, after the case was solved when I was standing in front of the whiteboard that my confidence was hit. Reid had come into the room and saw me looking at his work.
“Don’t bother trying to understand it,” he had said. “You’d have to be a genius to understand what I do.”
I didn’t have a word to describe the feeling that settled in my stomach at his words, I wasn’t sure such a word existed. The feeling was cold and heavy, but also made my body burn with shame.
I had just offered him a tight smile before I left the room.
On the plane home I had made a decision. I was no match for Dr. Reid, I doubt anyone was. So, I would take myself out of the competition. I couldn’t get hurt if I wasn’t playing the game.
And that is how the next year of my life went. I allowed Dr. Reid to explain things to me that I was an expert in, never saying a word. I acted like I didn't understand concepts that I had written papers on. The only thing I didn't dumb down was my profiling skills. Those were necessary for my job and for saving lives.
I don’t think anyone realized what I was doing.
Until they did.
--
The team had been called to Colorado to assist in capturing a serial rapist.
All of our cases bothered me, every last one…but something about ones with this vile element really struck me.
We had the unsub’s name, Tyler Childress. He had spent time in prison for sexual assault and burglary. It seems while he was in prison, he spent time perfecting his methods; it was only by pure luck that we found his fingerprint inside the victim’s house, making him the main suspect.
When we paid Mr. Childress a visit, he had managed to get the drop on Prentiss and Morgan, allowing them to escape. Morgan was furious.
All of us were sitting around a conference table in the local prescient while we let Dr. Reid talk.
I was trying to be calm, I was, but my nails were digging into my palm so deeply I was worried I was about to draw blood.
“Guys,” the expert on everything said. “He has to have some sort of accomplice.”
Rossi just sighed. “But the profile doesn’t point to him being the sort to do well with others; he’s a narcissist.”
Reid wouldn’t budge. “I know that, but he isn’t intelligent enough to pull this off alone. He’s just not. He had an IQ test done when he was 20. He scored in the mentally handicapped range. I’m telling you he has to have help.”
“Are you sure, Reid?” Hotch asked.
“Positive. I have his results right here.”
“IQ tests aren’t a good measure of intelligence on their own.”
I was so startled that someone had contradicted Dr. Reid that it took me a second to realize it was me who had contradicted him.
He turned to face me; his brown eyes wide. “What?”
Well, in for a penny, in for a pound. “IQ tests aren’t a good measure of intelligence.”
Dr. Reid laughed. He laughed at me like my comment was funny. “I don’t know where you heard that,” he began.
But I interrupted him. "IQ tests are classist and oftentimes racist. The man who invented the IQ test never intended for it to be used as a complete measure of intelligence. He regretted making the test.”
Reid sputtered. “You…it’s not racist!”
“Yes. It. Is.” I ground out. “If it wasn’t it wouldn’t be illegal to administer an IQ test to a black child in the state of California.”
"Wait, it's illegal to do that?" JJ asked, her brows drawn together.
"Yes. There was a court case in the 1970s over it. Teachers were using tests to separate white children from black children. The black children were put into special education classes they didn’t need to be in. Just because the teachers didn’t want those children in their classrooms.”
I should have stopped, but I was on a role. “They’re also inherently classist. How can you expect a child to answer a question about Romeo and Juliet if they haven’t heard of it?”
That had Dr. Reid scoffing. “Everyone has heard of it.”
I shot to my feet, unable to hold back anymore. “No, they haven’t. Children in underfunded schools that don’t have access to resources might not have heard about the most famous play in history because their school wasn’t able to provide the materials to teach them about it. There was a study done in a remote part of Russia right after the IQ test was invented. Every. Single. Person. Scored in the mentally handicapped range. Because they didn’t understand.”
I knew my voice was rising but I couldn’t stop myself. “Once the researcher took the questions and applied them to things they understood, they all scored as above average. They didn’t understand math as an abstract concept, but they understood it when it was applied to their businesses, to something they actually knew about.”
I cleared my throat. “The test isn’t fair, it’s not equal. Tyler Childress didn’t go to a good school and he didn’t have a stable home life. You can’t use one measure to calculate his intelligence. He’s gotten away with 7 assaults so far that we know of. He’s not stupid.”
The entire room was silent once I had stopped speaking. I couldn’t bring myself to regret it though. What kind of person was I if I played dumb because I was afraid of being mocked when a monster was out there attacking women? No, those women deserved to have me at my best.
And I’ll be damned if I wouldn’t give it to them.
Rossi spoke first, his eyes twinkling when he looked at me. “Took you long enough,” he said. “But y/n is right. We trust the profile; we don’t let personal bias cloud the way. That’s how we catch this bastard.”
--
Later that day, we were cleaning up the conference room while the local police processed Tyler Childress.
Pathological narcissism is a complex disorder, but we followed the profile and Rossi was right. Hotch set up a press conference in which JJ and Prentiss took center stage. They tore Childress’s ego to shreds on live television.
His narcissism wouldn’t allow that to slide. He got angry, he made a mistake, and we got him before anyone else got hurt.
While the cat was out of the bag about my intelligence and that made me nervous, I couldn't regret any of it. I got to be the one to tell our last victim that we got him. I got to hug her while she cried because now that he was locked up, she felt like her healing could begin. I wasn’t sure if my rant about structural racism and the classism of IQ tests actually helped anything, but that didn’t really matter. There was one less monster in the shadows.
Today was a good day.
I was alone in the conference room, untacking photos from the evidence board when I heard someone clear their throat from behind me. I turned my head to meet the wide, honey brown eyes of Dr. Spencer Reid.
Oh boy, I thought. “What’s up, Reid?”
He shifted from foot to foot, his hands twisting in front of him before he crossed his arms over his chest. “I asked Garcia to look into you.”
My eyebrows drew together. “I’m pretty sure any nefarious things I had done would have popped up on my initial background check.”
“Right, I didn’t mean like that,” he mumbled, the apples of his cheeks turning pink. “I asked her to look into you academically.”
Shit.
He went on. “You double majored in psychology and sociology before you got a master’s in cultural psychology. She pulled your thesis. I just read it.”
“I see.” I turned my attention back to the board.
“You also guest lecture on cross-cultural psychology at Georgetown several times a year. And you’ve co-authored two papers since I’ve known you.”
Meh, it’s three. But that doesn’t matter. “Did you read those too?”
I took his silence as confirmation.
He was so quiet I almost thought he had left, but the crackle of energy I felt in the air told me he hadn’t. “Do you need something, Dr. Reid?”
"Why didn't you get your Ph.D.?"
I had answered that question many, many times. “I didn’t need a doctorate to do what I wanted to do. I didn’t want to waste time. Once I figured out what I wanted, I charged at it.” Which was a far more honest answer than most people got about that from me.
“W-why did you pretend to be dumb?” he rasped out, causing me to look back at him. “32 days ago, you let me explain the long-term effects of gerrymandering and the complex causes of poverty.”
“Of course, I did,” I said, frowning. “Why wouldn’t I?”
“One of the papers you authored was about generational poverty.”
“Just because I know a lot about something doesn’t mean I can stop listening to information. That sort of thinking breeds ignorance.” I smiled, unable to not tease him just a little bit.
Reid took a step closer to me. “You didn’t answer my question.”
I just shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t have a good answer.”
In all the months I had known him, Spencer Reid had never touched me, not even so much as a finger brushing against mine when he handed me something. That fact is why I was so startled when I felt his hand on my upper arm, turning me towards him.
He licked his lips, his eyes darting around. “Did everyone else know?”
I shook my head, my teasing mood long gone. "No. I mean, clearly, Rossi suspected but…No, I didn't tell anyone else."
“I just don’t understand. You’re brilliant.”
I scoffed. “No, I’m not. I’m decent a psychology, sociology, stuff like that. I can’t apply math to behavior to find patterns. I can’t even calculate how much something is gonna cost when it’s on sale without a calculator half the time.”
‘What do you…” Reid trailed off. “Wait. The very first case. You were looking at the evidence board.”
Goddamn eidetic memory.
The boy wonder was on a roll now. “I told you that you’d have to…is that why you didn’t tell me?”
What else could I do? I just nodded.
Those brown eyes closed, and he let out a groan. “I said that because I thought you were going to…I was worried…” He huffed out a breath and opened his eyes. “I wanted you to like me. I didn’t want you to think I was just a nerd.”
Now I was confused. “Why?”
Spencer Reid’s blush went all the way down his neck. “Well…I just…Morgan said I should just talk to you. But I’m not…I’m not good at that. I panic, then I start to ramble. Like I’m doing now…”
“Reid,” I interrupted. “I’m not playing dumb now. I really have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“I like you,” he blurted out right before he smacked both of his hands over his face. “Oh my god. I sound like a child.” I thought I heard him mutter idiot under his breath. “Emily says that my IQ gets slashed to 60 whenever I see a pretty girl.”
Much like that moment all those years ago when I was a child, I felt everything click into place. Oh.
I couldn't suppress my smile any longer. I rose up on my tiptoes and pressed a kiss to his cheek. "Well, we've already gone over how IQ tests aren't a good measure of overall intelligence."
With that, I quickly stepped away and hurried out of the conference room, leaving a stunned genius in my wake. When I turned back to look at him, I saw his fingers brushing over the place where my lips had just been.

Never Put Off Until Tomorrow
Prompts: Chores and Video Games
Word Count: 4,850
Characters: The squad + Pixal
Timeline: between seasons 11 and 12
Trigger Warnings: None
Summary: …what can be done today, yada, yada, yada, we all know the saying. So do the ninja- when Master Wu is drilling it into their heads every minute of every day, it’s kind of hard to forget.
Naturally, it only takes them a week (and the biggest new video game in Ninjago) to do so.
Read on FFN.net
Read on Ao3
Tumblr work under the cut
“Get that gun out of his hand! Without it, he’ll be defenseless and we can take him down easily!” “I’m trying, Jay!” Lloyd said through gritted teeth. “One wrong move and he’ll get me with that thing!”
“Use your powers!” Jay raised his sword and dove at the enemy, forcing him to turn and face him. As their swords clashed with a loud clang of metal, Jay quickly pulled back as Lloyd shot a blast of power at the attacker, who promptly collapsed to the ground.
“Alright! Way to go, green ma- look out!”
Lloyd shrieked as someone suddenly jumped on him from behind, skewering a sword through his skull. The green ninja fell to the ground and vanished in a puff of smoke.
The ninja blinked at the scene before them, speechless.
Jay suddenly let out a whoop, leaning over to high-five Kai. “Way to go, bro! You’re so good at this game!” “He came out of nowhere,” Lloyd huffed, tossing his control to the ground. “He didn’t even give me a chance to fight back.”
Kai reclined, putting his hands behind his head. “Work smarter, not harder, green machine.”
Lloyd scowled, and Nya shot him a sympathetic glance. “Hey, Lloyd, you lasted a whole ten minutes longer than last time! You’ve drastically improved.”
“Don’t feel bad,” Kai winked. “Even Jay couldn’t beat me, I wouldn’t expect you to.”
Cole shook his head. “Dude, you’re unchecked! We’ve only had this game for a week and already, you’re insane. Let’s just say I’m very glad you’re on our team.”
“I’ll say,” Zane agreed. “The Critical Conquest Gaming Tournament is going to have some of the best gamers in Ninjago. You’re good, Kai- we all are- but we all need to be at the top of our game if we want a chance at winning.”
“We got this, guys,” Nya assured. “We’ve fought off serpentine, ghosts, the Overlord, Oni- winning a city-wide video game tournament should be a piece of cake.”
“Speaking of cake-”
“No cake,” Jay snapped at Cole. “Not until we’ve won this thing. I need you to practice.”
“Dude, chill, I’ve been practicing!”
“Then can you show me your double twist dash-melee maneuver?”
Cole blinked at him. “My what?”
“That’s what I thought. Here, let me show you. We’ll try until you’ve got it down.”
“Who put you in charge?”
“You did. Literally. You guys chose me to be the team captain for the competition.”
“Whatever.”
“Lloyd, come here, so he has someone to practice on.”
“Why me?” “Because you need to work on your stealth. Kai got that jump on you surprisingly easily. You’re a good fighter, Lloyd, but fighting doesn’t matter if your enemy kills you before you have the chance. Practice your stealth and dodging on Cole.”
“Ready to get your butt kicked, bud?” Cole reached his hands out, cracking his knuckles before picking up the controller.
“Ha! You wish. The only one who will be getting their butt kicked is-”
The sharp rapping of something against the floor interrupted him, and they turned to see Master Wu standing behind them, his gaze disapproving as he clutched his staff firmly in hand.
“Students, what do you think you’re doing?”
“Uhh, practicing for the Critical Conquest tournament?” Nya said. “I thought that was pretty obvious!”
Wu glared at her. “I know what you’re doing. But I’m afraid I’m going to have to cut all this short. The six of you have many chores to do.”
“Chores?” they cried in unison.
“The past week since you bought that game, you have done nothing but sit around on that couch and play it. In all that time, your chores have piled up. Now, I’m cutting you off. They need to be done, now.”
“But Master!” Jay pleaded. “The tournament starts in only a few hours!”
Master Wu smirked. “Well, I guess you better be fast, then.”
---
The ninja stared down at the alarmingly long list Master Wu had given them, no one speaking a word for nearly a solid minute.
“Why,” Kai groaned, “did we ever put all of these off?”
“Why didn’t Master Wu just let us wait one more day to do the chores?” Jay complained. “The tournament would be all over then!”
“Well, he didn’t,” Cole said. “So there’s no use in complaining. We might as well get started.”
“Alright, guys, if we’re going to get through all of this before the tournament starts, we’re gonna have to divide and conquer,” Nya said. “Let’s see. Zane, Lloyd, you guys take the kitchen. Jay, Cole, you can check the vehicles to make sure they’re operating properly- wait, scratch that, Cole doesn’t know shit about mechanics. Besides, putting you two alone together is never a good idea.”
“Hey!”
“Zane, you go with Jay on the machines. Cole, you’re with Lloyd. Kai and I will work outside on raking and fixing the training course.”
“Hey, no fair, you just gave yourself the easiest job!” Cole grumbled.
“I’ll inform you that raking leaves is very mundane!”
“Yeah!” Kai snapped. “Especially when it’s cold out like this. I’m gonna freeze my fingers off!”
“You’re the fire ninja, you’ll figure something out,” Nya snapped. “C’mon, let’s go.”
“Hey, Cole? You think this is so easy? We can trade places! You wanna trade places?”
“Actually, I’ve decided to be nice and let you take this one.”
Kai glared at him. “You’re only saying that because you know I hate it!” Cole leaned back against the table, smirking. “Maybe.”
“Come on, Kai, we’re going.” Nya grabbed his hand and yanked him out the door.
“I guess we better get working,” Cole sighed. “Jay, Zane, you guys need a copy of your tasks?” Zane shook his head. “I’ve got the list committed to memory. And there’s a lot to do, so we better go.”
As they left the room, Cole turned to Lloyd. “Put a check mark or something by the things the others are doing, so we can see what’s left for us.”
Lloyd made little marks next to the tasks, his pencil slowing as it reached the end. His frown deepened. “I swear, this list is getting longer. Some of these are just ridiculous! Polish the counters? Clean out the oven? Dust the tops of the cabinets? Who does these things?”
“Normal people, Lloyd. It’s not my fault that we’re so busy saving the city that you’ve never done anything more than the most basic chores in your life.”
“I’ve done chores!” “Darkley’s doesn’t count, bud. I bet the only thing you did there was clean spiders out of your bed.”
“They were fire ants,” Lloyd grumbled.
Cole turned on him with wide eyes. “What?”
Lloyd stiffened, suddenly seeming to realize what he had just said. “Uh… I mean… don’t tell Kai, okay?”
Cole stared at him for a moment, before sighing. “I’ll let it go, this once. But only because you’ve had a lot worse things than fire ants since then. Those kids are jerks, though.”
“I know.”
“... They really did that?”
“Yes, Cole! Do I need to show the scars to prove it?”
“No! I was just- you know what, forget I even said anything. Let’s get to work. First up, doing the dishes.” They turned towards the sink, where dozens of dirty plates and cups had accumulated.
“Seriously? Doesn’t anyone ever clean off their dishes after eating?”
Cole shot him a look. “Name one time you did that.”
“Okay, so never, but we’re ninja, not dishwashers! What do you expect?”
“Never put off until tomorrow what can be done today, Lloyd.”
Lloyd groaned. “I can’t believe I’m missing Critical Conquest for this.”
---
“Jay! You’re supposed to be repairing the sentry cannons on the Land Bounty!” “Chill out, Zane, I’ll get to it in a minute-”
Zane suddenly snatched the remote control out of his hand. “Jay! We’re never going to finish in time for the tournament if you don’t focus! Stop playing with toys!” “It’s not a toy!” He gestured towards the small remote-controlled robot. “This thing is going to be a major distraction! It could make it or break it for us in battle!”
Zane eyed the robot skeptically. “This. Distract our enemies?”
“Well, I was going to make it into a smoke bomb, but someone kept pestering me!” “Look, Jay, this isn’t the time to work on your inventions. You can do that later. Right now, you need to fix the sentries.”
“I already looked at the sentries,” he whined. “They were completely fried in our last adventure. I have to rewire the whole thing.”
Zane blinked at him. “Isn’t… that kind of your job?”
“Yeah, well, it’s hard work! I don’t want to do it! I’ll take any other chore on your list.”
“Well, someone needs to do it, and you’re the only one who knows how.”
“Not true! Why don’t you ask Pixal?”
He gestured towards the nindriod, who was tinkering with what appeared to be a small metal box.
“Pixal,” he called, walking over to her, “do you know how to rewire the sentries?” “Yes, but I know for a fact that Jay does, too. I’m not doing it for you.”
“Aww, come on, Pix,” Jay groaned. “Why don’t you have to do anything while the rest of us are all working our butts off?”
She glanced wryly at Jay’s little robot, who was waving cheerfully at her. “I wouldn’t exactly call it that. But I’m not helping because I already did all my chores while the rest of you were playing video games.”
Jay went pink in the face, and even Zane felt himself avoiding Pixal’s gaze.
“Critical Conquest is very important,” Jay muttered.
“More important than making sure all our weapons are operational? Or restocking the medbay?”
“We can do those things any time! The competition is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”
“Actually, there is another one next month-”
“Shut up, Zane. With our luck, we’ll probably be fighting evil nindroids or will be locked inside a different realm by that point, anyway.”
“I’m not helping you,” Pixal sniffed. “So I don’t know why you’re still here.”
Not taking Pixal’s… not-so-subtle hints, Jay leaned in towards her. “Whatcha workin’ on?”
Pixal eyed him warily. “... It’s a jetpack. I wanted to make something more compact in case I was in a situation where I couldn’t use the Samurai X suit.”
“That’s cool! Although, it might work better if you recalibrated the engines to-”
“Jay,” Pixal said sharply. “I know what I’m doing. Please go work on your chores.”
“Yeah, yeah,” he grumbled. “No one ever lets me have any fun.”
Zane shook his head, wandering over to the Earth Driller where he was working on replacing the paneling that had been damaged in the Oni incident.
He couldn’t have been doing so for more than fifteen minutes when the sound of a small explosion interrupted him.
Zane jerked to his feet, dashing over to where the sound had come from.
Jay had jumped back from Pixal’s jetpack, which was now black and smoking.
Of course it was.
“What happened?”
Jay scratched his head nervously. “Well, you see… I really didn’t want to work on those sentries, so when I noticed Pixal stepping out of the room for a moment…”
Zane sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Are you alright?”
Jay grinned. “Right as rain. Not even a scar like last time!”
“Okay, that’s good, now I feel less bad for saying this- what were you thinking?”
“I couldn’t help myself, Zane! She calibrated it all wrong!”
“Well, evidently, you were the one who did it wrong, seeing as it exploded within five minutes of you getting your hands on it.”
Jay jumped nearly a foot in the air. “Pixal! You’re back! Ah… um, I’m really sorry about your jetpack, I was only trying to…”
Pixal marched forward, snatching it off the floor. “It doesn’t matter, it’s done now.”
“I can fix it-”
“You’ve done quite enough,” Pixal snapped. “Why don’t you just go finish your chores now?”
“But-”
Pixal held up the burnt jetpack, shaking it lightly. “You owe me.”
“Fine,” Jay groaned. “I’ll rewire the stupid sentries.”
---
“If I have to rake one more pile of leaves, something is going to end up on fire.”
“Well, luckily for you, that was the last of them.” Nya set down her rake, rubbing her hands together. “Now we just have to dispose of the leaf bags.”
She and Kai glanced over towards the towering pile of leaf bags, and Kai groaned.
“It’s going to take forever to throw these all away!”
“Kai, the dumpster is just on the other side of the Monastery wall!”
“Yeah, but we can only carry a few bags at a time, and we’re going to have to make so many trips!”
“Well, unless you’ve got a better idea, we don’t have a choice.”
Kai paused, his eyes lighting up. “Wait-”
“No, Kai, we are not burning the leaves.”
“I wasn’t going to say that! Although… it’s not a half-bad idea…”
“Kai!” “Okay, okay, no burning! What I was going to say was, why don’t we just toss the bags over the wall and into the dumpster?”
Nya frowned. “We’d miss half of them and then have to go over there anyway and pick them all up.”
“No, we could do it like in Critical Conquest! Remember? The ground-bash move? This is just like that!”
“Kai, that’s just a video game. This is real life!” “Yeah, but wouldn’t it still work?”
Nya frowned, stepping forward and eyeing up the roof of the Monastery. “I suppose if we got the right angle… we’d have to make sure an ample amount of newtons were applied with each hit to reach the correct velocity… and of course we’d have to take into consideration factors like density and wind acceleration per second and its tendency to carry-”
“Okay, okay, enough with your science-y nerd stuff!”
“It’s just basic physics, Kai. I mean, there are a lot of external factors to consider that wouldn’t be present in a lab setting, although I still think it would be quite simple-”
“Would it work or not?” Kai interrupted. “Yes or no, I want a one-word answer.”
“Yes. We just need to get the proper positioning-”
“Can I be the one bashing the bags?”
Nya sighed. “Only if you do exactly as I tell you-”
“Whoooooo!” Kai cried, running off to grab the rake as he swung it around fiercely. “Who’s ready to bash some leaf bags?”
“Kai! I said to do exactly as I say-”
---
Despite Nya’s initial trepidations, the process did not end up being a total disaster, and they actually ended up getting the chore done decently quickly. Now all they had left to do was to test and recalibrate the training course.
Nya glanced down at her watch. Only an hour and a half until the tournament started. Her chances of getting extra practice on those tricky combos were looking slimmer by the second. Hopefully, Kai’s mastery of the game, Jay’s high skill levels, and Cole’s advanced items and power-ups would be enough to help them beat-
“Nya!” Kai shrieked. “I said, turn it off!”
Nya snapped out of her thoughts, glancing up at her brother, who had been knocked to the ground by a whirring training dummy. “Oh, shit!” She spun towards the controls and shut them down, jogging over to Kai. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I think so, I just-” Kai reached for her extended hand, pulling back with a sharp cry as they made contact.
“What?” “My hand,” he grimaced. “It hurts like hell.”
---
“You can’t throw out the Eggo Waffles!” Lloyd insisted, grabbing at the box in Cole’s hands
“Lloyd, they expired three days ago.”
“So what, they’re still edible.”
“They’re going.” Cole gave the box a strong tug, jerking it out of Lloyd’s hands and dropping it in the garbage. Lloyd huffed, crossing his arms.
“Kai would’ve let me keep them.”
“No, he wouldn’t have, because he doesn’t want you to get food poisoning.”
Lloyd paused for a moment, before amending, “Jay would’ve let me keep them.”
Cole sighed. “Yeah, and then you guys would’ve eaten them, and we would’ve ended up with two sick ninja.”
“I wouldn’t get sick! I have these super cool powers that protect me-”
“We don’t have any proof of that. We still don’t know exactly what your powers do.”
“Which means we can’t rule that out yet!”
Cole rubbed his head. “Out of all the people I could’ve gotten stuck cleaning out the freezer with… it had to be you. The one who gets emotionally attached to frozen waffles.”
“I am not emotionally attached-”
“Are you kidding me? He can’t play with this on! This thing is stiff, it seriously restricts his movement!” “It’s not a question, Jay, he needs to keep it on!”
“Is it actually that bad, though? Couldn’t he skip it for one game?”
“Not unless you want it to get worse!” Cole and Lloyd exchanged a glance and stepped out into the hallway, where the other four ninja were gathered.
“What’s going on?”
Zane opened his mouth to speak. “There was-”
“Kai!” Lloyd interrupted suddenly, darting over to him. “What happened to your hand?”
Cole blinked, realizing for the first time that Kai had a swathe of bandages wrapped around his hand.
Kai yelped in pain as Lloyd touched it, and the green ninja recoiled, his eyes widening in guilt. “Oh my gosh, I’m sorry!”
Nya rolled her eyes. “Don’t apologize, Lloyd, he’s fine. He’s just being a big baby about all of this.”
“Am not. It hurts!”
Zane stifled a sigh. “Kai, it is only a bad pulled muscle. Apart from being painful and needing plenty of rest, it’s nothing serious.”
“Well, you don’t know what it feels like,” Kai snapped. “It’s a lot worse than ‘nothing serious.’”
“I scanned you. I am quite certain my diagnosis is correct.”
Nya snickered, and Kai shot her a look. “Shut up, you. You’re the one who did this to me.”
“You’re the one who wasn’t paying attention!” “Yeah, well, you’re the one who was supposed to be-”
“Guys!” Jay cried. “Can’t you see we have more pressing matters at hand? Severe injury or not, Kai can’t play Critical Conquest like this. And he’s our best player!”
“Alright,” Lloyd said. “So we don’t have our best player anymore. That’s bad. But Jay’s still a beast! And Cole, and Nya, and everyone except me, basically-”
“He could be the worst player in all of existence and it still wouldn’t matter,” Cole pointed out. “We need six players to compete or they will disqualify us.”
“But if Kai can’t play, we have no one else! There are no backups!” Nya huffed, turning on Jay. “You’re our team captain! Why didn’t you prepare any backups?”
“Because we know no one else! We live in an isolated monastery at the top of the tallest mountain for miles, what did you expect? Besides, I wasn’t anticipating this to happen!” Zane frowned. “Well, if Kai can’t play, and we have no backup, then our only choice is to drop out-”
“Wait!” Jay cried suddenly. “I think I might have an idea of someone.”
---
“Please please please please-”
Pixal raised an eyebrow at him. “Do you really think begging is going to change my mind?”
“Please, Pixal, we need a sixth player, and you’re the only person I can think of!”
“Why would I help you after you blew up my jetpack?” Kai gaped at him. “You what?”
Jay fought back the heat spreading across his face. “That’s not important right now! Pixal, I promise I’ll fix it, just please compete with us!”
Pixal frowned at him, which wasn’t the most reassuring answer.
“C’mon Pix- I’ll do anything.”
“I don’t know, Jay-”
“We’ll do all your chores for the next month.”
“What?” “We will?”
“Jay, what the heck! We never agreed to that!”
Pixal smiled at him. “I would’ve accepted it if you offered a week, but that’s very generous of you.”
The others shot him smoldering glares, and Jay groaned. “It doesn’t matter, we don’t have time for this.” Glancing down at his phone, he sucked in his breath. “We’ve only got an hour until the tournament! Zane, can you teach Pixal how to play?”
Zane blinked at him. “In an hour?”
“Just cover the basics. We don’t have time for perfection. Just teach her as much as you can before the tournament starts.”
“Alright, I’ll see what I can do.”
As soon as they were out of the room, Jay wheeled around, moaning. “We are so hooped! She doesn’t know how to play! Kai, how could you be careless enough to injure yourself?”
“Oh, sure, blame the victim!” Kai snapped. “Would it kill you to show a little sympathy to your injured teammate?”
“You pulled a muscle, you baby!” Nya groaned. “Pixal’s a fast learner, hopefully, she’ll get the hang of it.”
“Fast learner or not, nothing can beat hours of experience,” Lloyd said. “Let’s just hope the other contestants aren’t as good.”
---
“These dudes are insane!”
Jay continued to scroll through the queued-up players, examining their stats, his jaw dropping. “How much have these people been grinding?”
“So much for an easy win,” Lloyd grumbled.
Zane and Pixal walked into the room, holding their controllers. “I think I’ve done everything I can with Pixal. The competition starts in five minutes, I suggest we get ready.”
“Alright.” Jay turned towards Pixal as Zane worked on setting up the game. “We’re going to need your help, but since you don’t have experience, I think the best move is to have you stay behind us and play defense.”
Pixal smirked. “I’ll do my best.”
“Guys, we have to queue up!” “Are the headsets working?”
“They’re ready, what about the controllers? All charged?”
“We really shouldn’t be checking these kinds of things literally three minutes before the tournament, but yes, they are.”
“Hurry, guys! It’s about to start!”
Zane blinked at the screen. “Jay… you named our team the Fast Chickens?”
“It’s a good name!” The others groaned, and Jay glared at them. “We’ll see who’s complaining when we win this thing!”
Jay fidgeted through most of the opening speeches from the hosts of the competition as they went over rules and procedures. And, after what simultaneously felt like both a million years later and only the blink of an eye, the game was finally starting. They got lucky with their spawn point, and after a few minutes, were able to collect some good resources and get a good start. Cole, Zane, and Nya were able to take down some of the weaker groups before they collected supplies while Jay and the others continued collecting and building up defenses.
Checking the score count, he could see there were already twenty teams down in various parts of the map, and he knew his team had been responsible for felling three of them. Jay couldn’t stop himself from smiling. It seemed like nothing could be going better.
That is, until they suffered a major blow on the southwestern flank of their territory against a high-level team- the CrownViolets, they called themselves. (Which was nowhere near as cool sounding as the Fast Chickens, Jay totally wasn’t insecure about that at all.) After a fierce fight that ended up costing them several lives- and robbing Zane of his last, taking him out of the game- they realized they couldn’t win this fight and backed down, sacrificing a sizeable chunk of their turf.
While still monitoring that boundary, they decided to primarily focus on expanding in the other direction. Their tactic seemed to be working well, and although the CrownViolets kept on encroaching on them from the boundary, the other teams weren’t backing down, and although none managed to defeat the rival team, they were certainly taking their tolls on them. Jay hoped that the other teams would eventually take the Violets out for them, although he had to admit that would be extremely lucky.
They were getting down to the last few teams in the tournament. When the top ten were remaining, special, more deadly weapons were hidden around, and with them, teams began to fight back harder. The Fast Chickens held their own, but by the time they were down to two teams remaining- them and the CrownViolets- both Jay and Lloyd had been killed and eliminated. Only Cole, Nya, and Pixal remained. The CrownViolets still had four players left, but they were weak. If the ninja were strategic enough, they could still win this.
But Pixal was a major hindrance. She had been plenty good at holding back and defending them, but now, with so few left, she was going to have to start playing a more active role. If only Kai had still been there.
“Alright, they’re somewhere around here.” Nya’s character pulled up her radar. “There seems to be two of them right up ahead-”
“Alright, Pixal.” Jay leaned over her shoulder, coaching her. “You’re going to have to start getting offensive. Nya says there’s only two, so there shouldn’t be a problem, but there could be an ambush, or these two could have higher health. We don’t want to take any chances. While Nya and Cole rush them, you should stay back and shoot at them with your launchers. Your character has good accuracy scores.”
There was a flash of purple, and muffled shouting, and Nya froze. “There they are! Let’s get them, guys!”
The three plunged into the fight, and although it was a tough battle, their opponents were relatively low on health, and they ended up eliminating the two CrownViolets- unfortunately, with the loss of Nya before doing so.
“It’s just the two of us left, Pixal,” Cole said, “but there’s also only two of them, as well. We can do this. Just stick close to me. They’re around here somewhere.”
“And that somewhere is here!” Pixal shrieked suddenly, whirling around.
Cole’s eyes widened. “One of their teammates must’ve sent out a distress signal before they died!” He grappled for his weapon, but in his haste, his grip was sloppy.
Pixal, however, barely hesitated, diving at their opponent and attacking in a flurry of blows. Jay’s eyes nearly bulged out of his head as she performed a complex combo it had taken him a full day to learn.
Zane smiled at all their gaping mouths. “I told you to have faith in her.”
Cole was evidently shocked too, and within a few moments, he was dead- although not before delivering a nearly fatal blow to his opponent. Pixal quickly finished him off before turning to face the last remaining player.
“Be careful, Pix,” Jay warned. “She still has pretty high health. Don’t get cocky, or take dumb risks.”
“Dumb risks are your thing,” Pixal corrected, not even batting an eye as she darted past her opponent, slashing her with her sword.
The CrownViolet wasn’t giving up, though. She pushed back, throwing down a smoke bomb and suddenly pushing Pixal down from behind. Pixal rolled out of the way, missing her sword by inches, and sprung up, taking the moment of surprise to her advantage to knock her opponent down. As the rival started crawling away, Pixal’s character took a potion, powering up a special move. The opponent knocked her down as she was waiting to power up, but before she could get a good attack in, Pixal was ready and was blasting her a beam of light.
The girl’s avatar fell to the ground, dead.
There was a beat of silence, then their living room erupted in cheers.
“Pixal! You did it! You won the game for us!”
“I can’t believe it! We actually won! Without Kai!”
“Hey,” Kai yelped. “That didn’t sound like it was meant to be a compliment.”
“What do you mean,” Lloyd said. “That was totally a super nice thing I just said about you.”
Kai narrowed his eyes. “A bit backhanded, don’t you think?”
“Guys, none of that is important!” Cole cried. “We won! Out of all the gamers in the city! We actually won!”
“But I have to know,” Jay insisted. “How did you get so good at the game?”
Pixal shrugged. “I guess you pick up a thing or two watching your team play a game obsessively for the past week.”
Jay blinked. “You’ve been watching us?”
She scowled. “I’ve been doing the chores in here, lightning brain! Repairs, laundry, picking up after you- you’ve just been too obsessed by your game to even notice me!”
“Oh, really? Uh, that’s my bad…”
“Speaking of which, you promised to do my chores, and I’m looking forward to a nice, relaxing evening off.”
“Did I?” Jay laughed nervously. “Hey, did I ever mention that the tournament winners get a cash prize-”
Pixal handed him a mop. “Nice try. Although I still expect my fair share of the earnings by the end of the week. Good luck.” The ninja just gazed at her in horror, and she laughed.
“You’re going to need it.”

Chaotic Coupling
*FINALLY! This f**king request took so f**king long! It matter not now because I finally finished it. It is also really long so hopefully that helps make up for how long it took. I do not mean it lightly when I say it is long. This took up 14 pages in google drive. You have been warned.*
Prompt: Reader is the goddess of chaos exiled to the Underworld. It is plenty boring but then she meets the recently deceased Peter Pan. He seems like he could be fun!
Requested by: anon
Warnings: language
~~~
What is more sweet than chaos? What is more freeing then giving into desire? What is a life if one does not indulge in their sins?
Boring. Tedious. Peaceful.
Not at all fun.
Y/N was a goddess of chaos. Messing with mortals by causing trouble and anarchy wherever she went. It was chaotic and threw mortals into a hysteria but that was not how Y/N saw it. Oh no. When she looked down and saw what her actions had wrought she only saw beauty. The anger, confusion, sadness, and raw untethered emotion bursting from every lifeform like a volcano. She loved it.
Unfortunately the other gods did not. She was warned hundreds of times to stop causing such blatant and unneeded mess around the globe but she never listened. It was not like the gods ever punished her. The world would always need a little chaos. Trying to contain it would only build it up until it was unleashed like a hellstorm causing much more damage than she ever could by herself. She almost wanted them to detain her just so she could see what her release of chaotic energy would do to the world.
That was not what happened. After centuries of warnings the gods did finally punish her. She was not put in a crate like a pup as she had almost secretly hoped. The gods were smarter than that. Instead she was put on a leash. Banished to the Underworld to help her Uncle Hades. Her presence would still be felt throughout the world but she could not incite anything truly chaotic as long as she was regulated to the Underworld.
At first she tried to keep her head up. Though she had never visited the Underworld she had to believe it would be fun. It was where all dead souls went. Good and bad. They may be dead but that didn’t mean they were free from chaos.
As she soon learned though nothing she did made much of a difference in the Underworld. Her Uncle Hades ran a tight ship so she could never get away with anything too bad. How could this punishment get anymore boring? She was practically debasing herself with these petty squabbles among the dead. It was humiliating and it was boring! What she would give to be able to leave but so long as she was under Hades watchful eye there was no escape.
It was another miserable day in what was essentially hell. Y/N was taking a walk along the street of the town Hades had modeled the Underworld to. All of the sudden a new soul materialized in the center of the square. That was nothing new. New souls appeared all the time. There was something kind of off about this one though. They had an energy about them that practically made her mouth water. Who exactly had died?
She made her way over to them. “Hello there,” She said and the soul turned sharp on his heel. It was a boy. Young. Disheveled brown hair and piercing green eyes blown wide like a cornered lion. “You have some bite don’t you?”
“Who are you?” He snarled.
“I’m Y/N. Goddess of Chaos and unwilling permanent tenant here in the Underworld.” She stalked around him assessing him up and down. “And you are?” She reached a hand out to touch him. He grabbed her by the wrist halting her. He pulled her closer his eyes hard like stones and his words dripping with malice
“Don’t touch me,” He growled.
Y/N chuckled. “You are fun.” She inhaled deeply, “You absolutely reek of it.”
“What?”
“My beautiful chaos. It’s been so long since I’ve caught a whiff of such potent mayhem. Far more intoxicating than any wine.”
“Get away from me,” The boy shoved her off, “Insane woman.”
“You would be insane too if you were stuck here for centuries unable to have any real fun.” She followed after him, unperturbed. “Well I guess you are now.”
“Why are you following me?”
“I’m bored. Duh. Also, I still haven’t learned your name my delicious little anarchist morsel.”
“Stop talking to me like that. My name is Peter Pan.”
“Hm,”
“What now?”
“Such a boring name for someone who absolutely reeks of pandemonium. Care if I call you something more interesting? Like Balthazar or Zebulon.”
“No.”
“No fun.”
That seemed to irk him and he reared on her with a fury. “You do not know who you are talking to. I have fun more than anyone. The world is my board and everyone else in it are pawns.”
“Really? Cause you seem straight boring now. Peter Pan. Blech, and here I had such high hopes for you.”
“Oh woe is you. So sorry to disappoint Your goddess-ness. Unless you can get me out of here then I have no use for you.”
“If I can’t get out of here then there’s no chance you can. If you decide you want to stop being such a stick in the mud come find me. I live in the clocktower.” With that she walked away. Such a shame. She had gotten her hopes up for a minute just for him to let her down. She wondered what he had done in his life that made him smell so delicious though. Oh wait! She could!
She entered the library and went to the secret section in the back. No one could enter here except for gods. Millions of books lined the shelves. The life stories of everyone that had ever lived. “Peter Pan.” She said his name and waited as a book levitated off of one of the many shelves and flew into her hands. “Let’s see what is so interesting about this Peter fellow.”
Lots of reading later and Y/N understood better exactly who she was dealing with. This Peter Pan was a lot like her. Living on his own island doing whatever it was that he wanted. Instigating violence and anarchy in the name of fun. He was also far older than he appeared. Since time stood still on his island, his Neverland, he lived for hundreds of years without growing older. How had she missed such a place? It sounded like somewhere she would have thrived.
It was almost eerie how similar the two were. At least in the context of his book. The real thing seemed a lot more boring. Perhaps that was due to him dying. Death just took the life out of everyone. Metaphorically speaking.
A few days went by of Y/N stalking Peter to see what he would do. After reading through his novel she was sure he’d be one of those that roughed it in the wilderness but to her surprise he took up residence in a secondhand shop. Why there?
Curiosity overtook her and she went inside the shop. Pretty little trinkets long ago lost lined the shelves and glass cases. Something stood out to her amongst all the sparkly treasures. A doll. A simple straw doll with a little blue coat on it. It stood proudly on a pedestal all by itself. What was so precious about this?
She took the doll off the pedestal to inspect it further.
“Drop it.” A cold voice demanded. There was Peter Pan behind one of the cases. His eyes narrowed at her.
“What? This?” She waved the doll, “If you don’t want people touching it you should really put it somewhere more secure than a pedestal in the middle of the room.”
“I said, drop it.” Peter urged again. Y/N didn’t miss the hint of panic in his voice.
“What if I don’t want to?” She produced a flame from her finger, “What if I burnt it to a crisp instead? It’s awfully dry. It’ll be ash in seconds.”
“Put it down!” Peter roared, he had jumped the case and in a split second had a dagger pressed to her throat. “Now!”
“Why is this so special to you?” She asked. He pressed the blade closer to her neck, not saying a word. Something clicked in Y/N’s head right then. A mention of a doll in Peter’s book. A smile creeped back onto her face.
“It’s your doll. The only toy and the only friend you ever had until you came to Neverland.” She extinguished the flame on her finger. “How sentimental.”
“How did--how did you--”
“I know everything now, Peter Pan.” A shadow passed over his face, “And I mean everything. The mother that never wanted you, the orphanage, the fairy that guarded you, your attempts to go back and have a real family failing year after year until you decided you were too old to be anyone’s son again--”
“AGH!” He slashed her throat but not a mark was left on her skin. Not a drop of blood.
“Now that was rude,” Y/N rolled her eyes, “I think I’m owed an apology.”
“But how did…” Peter stared at the dagger.
“Seems you need a reminder.” Y/N took him by the throat. The doll and dagger clattering to the ground as she hoisted him into the air. “I am a goddess. The Goddess of Chaos. Did you really think it would be that easy to kill me?”
He clawed at her hands but they were like stone around his throat. “Remember this Peter Pan, my body takes an insane amount of power to break. Yours, not so much. So remember your place in this world. You are no leader here. You are no threat. You are my toy and I can throw you away whenever I want. So either be a good toy or I will destroy you.” She dropped him. He collapsed to the ground gasping for breath.
“This was fun,” She knelt down next to him and pulled his chin up to look at her, “I’ll be back to play again.” She left a kiss on his forehead. “Farewell.”
Y/N did not go back to see Peter Pan again for several days. For days she watched him stew in his paranoia. Constantly looking over his shoulder like a frightened deer everywhere he went. He liked games. Y/N knew that much. But it looked like he wasn’t having as much as she was with this latest one. Every so often she would walk by him on the street, acting like she hadn’t noticed but all the while watching him from the corner of her eye. He got so tense when he saw her but never withdrew. He would glare at her until she passed.
It was fun having someone to torture like this again. He still had fight in him.
Then came the morning everything changed. Y/N was walking along the street as she usually did this time of day when she noticed Peter exiting the diner. What luck!
“Good morning!” She sidled up next to him, “Got some breakfast did you?”
He didn’t reply. Just shoved his hands deeper in his pockets and kept walking.
“Oh come now, it’s no fun if you don’t reply.” Y/N said, “If you don’t say anything I’ll just take it as a challenge.”
Nothing.
“Fine.” She sighed, “I just thought you’d like someone to talk to. You don’t talk to anyone around here. I think the only person I’ve seen you talk to is my uncle and that was only once. Don’t you find it boring doing this routine everyday? Don’t you want to try something new? We can have a lot of fun if you would just remove that stick up your ass. What happened to the fun boy full of mayhem that I read about? Did he die when you did? I wouldn’t think death would change a person so drastically. People usually retain their personalities from when they were living into their death but not you. You are more boring than watching grass grow and trust me, there is no grass growing here. You are as boring as watching non-growing grass. Isn’t that sad? I think--”
“SHUT UP!” Peter shoved her hard against the wall of a store. His arm was pressed against her neck pinning her in place. “Leave me alone!”
“Ha!” She laughed, “I told you I could get you to talk.”
“There has got to be a way to kill you.” He muttered.
Y/N smiled. Peter’s arm dug into her neck harder. “Stop smiling.”
“You have fire,” She grinned wider, “I like fire.”
Something clicked in his head. His grip on her easing. She figured that would get his attention. He backed away from her slowly. Y/N turned to a potted bush next to the store window. Peter watched her with a growing sense of interest.
“Don’t you like fire too?” She produced a spark in her hand and flicked it at the flower bush. “One little spark of fire and from that spark it grows. It grows, it spreads, it devours everything in its path leaving behind nothing but torment in its beautiful inferno. It’s the most breathtaking form of destruction I’ve ever come across.”
“You’re kinda crazy aren’t you?” Peter asked, watching as the flower bush was consumed by the flames.
“Perhaps.” she fluttered a hand over the fire making it grow faster. “Being the goddess of chaos kinda does that. I thrive off of disorganization and pandemonium. It would only make too much sense that’s what my mind is like as well. I may be impulsive but that doesn’t make me dumb. You have to find the right nerve to hit to maximize your effect. Groom them with little incidents of mayhem here and there. Then, when the timing is right you hit them where it’ll hurt most and watch the beauty unfold before you. Just like a flame can engulf an entire forest, one perfectly hit nerve can destroy an empire.”
“What do you do when it’s all in ashes then?” Peter asked.
“Not my area. I can bring civilizations down but I’ve never really put much thought into raising new ones up. That’s what the rest of my family is for. They take the ashes of what I have done and create new life. It’s an endless circle of life and death. Gods, I miss it.”
She stared deep into the fire.
“Is that what you’ve been doing with me? Bothering me with little annoyances for days on end before trying to strike that nerve that would drive me insane?”
“A bit.” She shrugged, “Not a fan?”
“Not really, but I guess that’s the point.” He sighed, “I think we’re a lot alike actually.”
“I thought the same thing while I was reading through your book. Did death really suck all the fun out of you?”
“Not much fun to be had here. None of my boys are here, I have magic but there’s nothing for me to control outside of a stupid little shop, and the residents are insanely dull and sad. I fear that you have been my only form of entertainment since I got down here.” Peter waved his hand and the flame from the one flower pot jumped into the next catching that one on fire as well. “What did you mean when you were talking about my book?”
“Oh, there is a portion of the library only accessible to gods. It holds books that contain the entire lives of everyone who has ever lived. I read through yours. That’s how I know everything about you.”
“I see…”
“Would you like to see it?”
“Sure,” He nodded. “Don’t think this means that I like you now or anything. You’re merely the most interesting thing here at the moment.”
“Which is precisely why you do like me.” She elbowed him, “Come, I think you’ll like this place.”
They went to the library and Y/N entered into the area reserved to gods. Peter pouted outside since he couldn’t get past the invisible barrier that shielded him from entering. Y/N grabbed his book and returned with it. “See?”
“Do the gods have these as well?”
“Yes, but they are kept on Olympus. Did you want to read mine?”
“I thought it only fair seeing as how you read my entire life story.”
“Well you would be reading mine for a long time. I do a great many things and I have lived far longer than you have. There’s no need for you to read my book though. Whatever you would like to know you simply have to ask. I have no secrets.”
“Forgive me if I don’t trust anyone who is that open about their past. No secrets? At all?”
“There is nothing I have done in my life that I feel ashamed or embarrassed about.”
“I believe that.” A grin started to spread on his face, an idea latching in his mind, “But that doesn’t mean you don’t have anything personal that you’d rather not share. Acts of wrath and embarrassing moments aren’t something you would feel bad about sharing. Intimate moments though, personal moments, that’s where you clam up.”
“Is this your clever way of trying to dig into my exciting love life?” She smirked. “Afraid I don’t have any secrets there either.”
“Oh no, you misunderstand. I don’t care about any past lovers. I can tell what really gets to you.” Peter stepped closer, “Your family.”
“I don’t care about my family.” Y/N said, she tried to sound casual but his tone gave her pause.
“Yes. You’ve said so. They kicked you out and it is dreadfully boring down in the underworld. But beyond that, you miss them. The only one down here is Hades and I doubt he’s great company. But the other gods and goddess, your other family, even though they banished you here you still yearn to be a part of their world.”
“You don’t know anything.” Y/N’s voice was quiet. She hadn’t expected him to turn the conversation around on her like this.
“I know a lot actually.” Peter continued, “And what I know best is when someone is lost. You may be the Goddess of Chaos but you know what I see? I see the same sadness and desperation that many of my boys wore on my island. You are just a lost little girl crying for your family.”
She hadn’t realized she threw the punch until she saw Peter collapse on the floor. Her breathing was heavy and her hands were shaking. This boy had drilled down into the very core of her being with no effort. He had seen through her as plainly as glass. It was unnerving and she may have reacted a tad harshly to his assessment.
“Punched by a goddess,” Peter stood up again, rubbing at his jaw, “Can honestly say that’s something I hadn’t expected to happen in my life, er, death I guess.”
“You’re not angry?”
“Hardly. Figured you were gonna react like that.” He sighed, “Still not the worst hit I’ve ever taken.”
“You are a strange boy.”
“It’s what keeps me interesting.” He collected the book that had fallen from his hands off the floor.
“Does this mean you still want to kill me?”
“I’m debating it.” He said. “This interaction doesn’t change the fact that you are incredibly annoying.”
“Hurtful but accurate.” Y/N shrugged as she made her way to the stairs that led up to the clocktower. “In another life I think we could have been a very good team.”
She paused. She turned around and saw that Peter had the same look of contemplation. Their eyes met and twin smiles sprouted on their faces. “Is this my magic at work or are we on the same page?” Y/N asked.
“I believe we are.” Peter approached her, “Neither of us wants to be trapped in the Underworld and neither of us individually has the power to escape. But if we work together…”
“We can escape this hellhole.” Y/N finished. “Think you can survive teaming up with me long enough to get out of here?”
“If it means freedom then I will be at your side until we both see the blue sky once again.” He held out a hand, “Partners?”
“Partners.” She shook his hand, “This is going to be so much fun!”
Time passed quickly after Peter and Y/N teamed up to find a way to escape the Underworld. Y/N already had a headstart on research since she spent so much time when she was first banished here finding a way out. She shared her findings with Peter and the two spent days pouring over every detail that looked like it could be useful.
With no need to sleep or eat in the Underworld they would spend several days straight huddled in the library plotting their escape. In between all their research and brainstorming sessions Y/N got to know Peter Pan beyond what she had read in his book and in return he got to know her. They were closer. He still said she was the most annoying thing in all the realms and she teased him often when he got too serious.
When things got especially tense and they needed to blow off steam they would go out together and cause mischief in town. They even snuck into Hades’ office once and stole some of his decanters of fancy liquor. For the first time in a very long time Y/N was truly having fun. Torturing and messing with souls was all well and good but she found she was actually enjoying her time with Peter. She was laughing a lot more with him. Peter himself seemed to grow more at ease with her with every passing day.
Before she had even realized it their begrudging partnership to find a way out of the Underworld had blossomed into friendship. Y/N couldn’t remember the last time she had a friend. She couldn’t remember if she ever did. No one had ever wanted to be very close to her. Causing chaos wherever you go, even unintentionally, threw people off. It never bothered Peter though. He called her annoying but he smiled and laughed at the havoc that naturally happened around her. He played along with it.
“Good morning, Chaos,” Peter let himself into her clocktower bedroom. “Got you a muffin from the diner.” He tossed her a paper bag.
“Thanks.” She caught it. “So, look at this thing I found. So we know that the only way anyone can get out of here is if Hades opens a portal, right? Well, apparently it isn’t solely Hades that can open portals out of the Underworld. Any god can by either being more powerful than Hades like Zeus or by usurping him as the ruler of the Underworld.”
“So you could open a portal out of here?”
“Theoretically yes. But we would have to usurp my uncle.”
“I think we can take him together.”
“No. Here’s the problem. The only way for us to usurp him is to kill him and it is hilariously, nearly impossible, to kill a god.”
“But there is a possibility?”
“I mean I guess but it is hardly a viable option. The only way I know how to kill a god is with the Olympian Crystal which Uncle Hades keeps heavily protected. It is also broken with no way to fix it. Trust me, he brought it out once for me to try and fix but I couldn’t do anything.”
Peter pondered it for a minute. “Okay, you couldn’t fix it all by yourself but what if we tried combining our powers? Do you think that could do it?”
“Maybe. Hades and I tried together once but he said it wouldn’t work since his heart isn’t beating.”
“What does that have to do with--”
“It was part of his own banishment. He can’t leave the Underworld unless his heart starts beating again or something like that. So even though he has the means his dead heart keeps him trapped like us.”
“Alright, is he tied to the crystal in any way? Is there any way he could track it if it went missing?”
“No. So long as it is broken he shouldn’t be able to find it. Why? Plan on stealing it?”
“Yes.”
“Stealing my uncle’s most prized possession from right under his nose, sounds risky...I love it!”
“I thought you would.” Peter grinned, “Seems that for the first time we have a real plan. I say this calls for a celebration.”
“Not too premature?” She asked.
“Well, if we fuck it up then we are both doomed so we might as well celebrate now before anything potentially goes wrong.” He pulled what was left of the liquor they stole from Hades out.
“I won’t object to that.” She took a sip before passing the decanter back to Peter. She stared wistfully out of the clocktower window and sighed. “It’s so strange,” Y/N said, “To be this close to freedom. I have so many memories of the world above but they feel more and more like fantasies I’ve created than something I was ever a part of. I don’t even know what I would do when I get up there. Where would I go?”
“You’re more than welcome to come cause havoc on Neverland if you’d like.” Peter said. “Give my boys a challenge.”
“You really want me on your island? The most annoying being in all the realms?” She teased.
“If you happen to be near at least.” He smiled, softer. “I’d blame it on the liquor but it doesn’t affect us so I guess I’m just gonna have to say this.”
“Say what?”
“I think I am actually gonna miss you when we get out of here.”
“Really?”
“Yes, Chaos.”
“I suppose I’d miss you too.” Y/N shook her head, “I take that back, I know that I’ll miss you.”
“Well that’s enough mushy stuff,” Peter said quickly, dropping his gaze, “We have a crystal to steal after all.”
“Right, of course,” Y/N nodded.
More time passed and Y/N found herself in a new and frightening headspace. She was confused. All her life she had lived through chaos, so much so that it was what she was named the goddess of. Anarchy was where she was most comfortable but yet, when that same pandemonium she thrived in was pushed inward she didn’t know what to do. She could do well in chaos because she always had a focus point. Herself. She was the eye of the storm. She was safe while everything happened around her.
So why did it feel like she was caught in the hurricane?
It had all started that day she and Peter had decided to steal the crystal and usurp Hades. Something about that day disturbed her. When she looked at Peter now her mind wandered. When he sat close enough to touch, her brain burnt out. Yet nothing had changed.
No. That wasn’t entirely true. At some point during all their scheming Y/N had grown to really care about Peter. She’d even call him a friend. When she thought of her life outside of the Underworld she couldn’t think of one where she wasn’t hanging out with him. She already missed him and he wasn’t even gone yet.
What was wrong with her?
Whatever it was it would have to wait. She had a mission now. It was finally the day. After tons of careful and meticulous planning they were going to steal the crystal. Peter was serving as a distraction for Hades while Y/N snuck in and bypassed the traps and wards Hades had around the crystal. She figured she’d have five maybe ten minutes max to get in and get out before Hades got bored of Peter and came back. That’s if she didn’t trip one of his traps first.
By the time she finally got the safe unlocked her whole body was sweating and shaking from nerves. She had come so close and now all she had to do was grab it and get out. She took down the last ward and grabbed the pieces of the crystal and shoved them into her bag before slamming the safe closed and putting the wards back up as quickly as she could.
And done. Phew. Now all she had to do was get out.
“Now this is a surprise.” Y/N froze. Damn. She had taken too long. She poofed the bag away to her room in the clocktower before turning to meet her uncle.
“Hello, hope you don’t mind that I popped in.” She said as casually as she could. “Life up top was getting dreadfully boring.”
“I would say so, it is a rare thing for you to come visit me.” He scanned her up and down, “What entertainment do you think I can provide?”
“I don’t know. You have the billiard table. Care to play?”
“Not now.” He shooed her, “I have work to do so you can scamper along and torment some other poor soul.”
“Boo! You really are the god of the dead.” She stuck her tongue out at him. In the next instant she reappeared in her room. She collapsed back on the bed in relief. Hades didn’t suspect anything.
She heard the sound of pounding footsteps and Peter barged in. “Did you get it?”
Y/N held up the bad with pieces inside. “Who do you take me for?”
“Yes!” Peter was so happy he lifted her off the bed and into the air in a tight hug, “We’re gonna get out of here!”
And the inner turmoil was back. Heat crawled up her neck and burned her face. Had Peter ever held her like this before? Why did it feel so nice to be in his arms?
Just as quick as it started Peter dropped her back to her feet and reached around her for the bag. He pulled out the pieces and set them on the bed, looking over them carefully. He was talking about how it looked like it should be an easy fix but there were other logistics to take into account and whole lot of other technical mumbo jumbo that she really didn’t care about. Well, not so much cared about but couldn’t bring herself to comprehend since her mind was still being tossed around in a tornado of unfamiliar feelings.
“Hey” Peter shook her shoulder, “Were you listening?”
“Spaced out. What were you saying?” She asked.
“I tried a spell on my own but it did nothing. Care to try with me this time like we planned?”
“Got it.” Y/N took her spot next to him and stared down at the broken pieces of crystal. She picked up one and Peter picked up the other. “Here goes nothing.”
They faced each other and started the spell. She was channeling all of her power into it, willing the crystal to come together. This had to work. It just had to. The spell died and when she looked down she frowned at the still broken crystal in her hands.
No. No! It was supposed to work! This was supposed to work! She slid down to the ground, her half of the crystal laying limply in her hands. Peter knelt down with her.
“It didn’t work.” She muttered, “It didn’t work, Peter. We went through all of this and our one way out of here is still just a hunk of junk!”
“We’re never going to see the world above again.” Tears started to slip from her eyes and down her cheeks.
“Don’t say that,” Peter tilted her chin up. His large green eyes bore into her. “We are not giving up now. Not after we have come this far. We are going to see that big blue sky again, Y/N. I swear it.”
“How? We have no other way to get out of here unless we kill Hades and we can’t kill him without this crystal.”
“We’ll find a way. We will not rest until we get out of here. I don’t care how long it takes. Do you wanna know why?” He brushed the tears from her eyes, “Because I want us to go on adventures together. I want to see what you can really do when you can let chaos run free. I want to show you my home. I want you to see Neverland. I want us to have fun together outside of here.”
“Peter…” The whirlwind within me started to ebb, “I want that too.”
“And hey, in the meantime, we can still have fun together right here.” He smiled.
That’s when it hit her. What that chaos reigning inside her really was. Why it felt so strange yet so pleasant at the same time.
“I love you.” She said.
Peter blinked at her. “Huh?”
She grabbed his face and brought him closer so her nose touched his, “I love you, Peter Pan.”
He didn’t respond. Not with words at least. The distance between them, as small as it was, closed and she felt his lips brush against hers in hesitant kiss. She pulled him closer again and the kiss deepened. The spark that ran through her felt like a bolt of lightning and she should know since she had been struck by one of Zeus’ blasts before. This was a lot better though and it certainly didn’t leave a coppery feeling in her mouth.
A flash of light made them break apart. Down at their knees was the Olympian Crystal in one piece. Y/N picked it up. She could feel the power running through it. “But how did…?”
“Through the most powerful magic of all. Something that not even a god could compare to.” Peter grinned, “True love.”
“Are you saying that we have true love?” Y/N teased. Truthfully the thought made her want to jump up and down but she would never admit it.
“Seems so. Only makes sense that I would fall in love with the goddess of chaos.” Peter ruffled her hair. “And she made the unfortunate decision to love me back.”
“Why’s that unfortunate?” Y/N asked.
“Cause now you’re stuck with me forever, Chaos.” He pulled her into his arms.
“I think I can live with that.” She kissed him again. She held up the crystal with a wicked smile. “Now, my love, how do you feel about killing a god for our first date?”
“Sounds perfect to me.” He matched her insane smile. They were going to have so much fun!

“Something seem odd about this whole thing or is it just me,” mumbled Jensen to you about an hour later back home, the team that was ready to come to your house that night in custody after they were seen at the same location the guy the night before came from.
“I think this guy knows we’d find the team. He’s still ahead of us,” you said.
“What’s the least rational thing we could do right now?” he asked.
“Go to the baby shower.”
“Then let’s go to the baby shower.”
“It’s already over.”
“Is there any Hollywood party or something tonight?”
“There’s a client manager party downtown,” you said. He smiled and you shook your head. “That’s way too dangerous.”
“Which is why he thinks we’d never go. He’s anticipating our rational moves so let’s be irrational,” said Jensen. “Let’s go out to a big party we couldn’t ever hope to control.”
“You think he’ll show up?” you asked.
“Tweet that you’re getting ready to head to the party right now. He’s gonna think you believe you’re in the clear and I got a feeling he’ll move in on his own,” said Jensen.
“You’ll need a tux,” you said.
“This is the part you’re not gonna like. I think you gotta go in alone,” he said. You swallowed but nodded. “You got this. Just don’t wear heels...and bring that knife I gave you.”
“What are you planning?” you asked.
“When you eliminate suspects, the impossible has to be the truth,” he said.
“I don’t get it.”
“I think I know who wants you, Y/N.”
“Who?” you asked. He shut his eyes and took a deep breath as the doorbell rang. Charlie answered the door, your parents and step-brothers walking in all looking very confused.
“Ms. Y/L/N,” said Jensen to your mom, cutting them off when they all started to speak at once. “Why don’t you explain what exactly happened to your first husband, Brian?”
“I don’t understand,” she said. She looked at you and you cocked your head. “Brian died years ago.”
“Yes, he did,” said Jensen, giving Chuck a harsh look. “Surprised you came here.”
“Excuse me?” he scoffed.
“Y/N’s life wasn’t in any danger until your wife started talking about moving out here, isn’t that right,” said Jensen. “I wonder why that is.”
“What the hell are you accusing me of? Trying to kill my daughter?”
“Oh, a lot worse than that,” said Jensen. “Guys.”
Jared and Benny were pushing the rest of your family away from Chuck quickly, Chuck’s face dark and his eyes nearly black looking.
“Jensen,” you said. “Chuck wouldn’t…” you trailed off, a foggy memory itching at the back of your skull. “You put the pool cover over me once when I was swimming, right when you and mom started dating.”
“That was an accident.”
“I don’t think so,” you said, grabbing your mom’s hand and pulling her over to you.
“You used to hit us,” said Michael. You and your mom’s head’s whipped in his direction, Michael frowning. “When we were kids. You called it tough love but everything I know now as a lawyer, everything Nick knows from school psychology…”
He and Nick took a few steps away from their father, Chuck rolling his eyes.
“Guys! That was mom and I’s decision and yeah I screwed up and regret ever doing it but that’s all it was. Y/N, the pool was an accident and I was the one that pulled you out. You-”
“To make you look like a hero,” you said. “Was that your plan this time? Kidnap me, miraculously get in contact with the kidnapper and save me?”
“No! I would never hurt you, kiddo, you know-”
“But you’d hurt your sons,” you said. You looked over to Nick, swallowing to yourself. He nodded and you took a deep breath. “Nick was suicidal and you used to make jokes about that stuff. Did you know?”
“What the fuck is wrong with you? No!” said Chuck, Michael’s face white as he looked at his brother.
“Nicky?” he said quietly.
“I’m better now. It was a long time ago,” said Nick.
“Boys, come here,” said your mom, the both of them getting away from their father, a few other members of Jensen’s old unit putting themselves between your family and Chuck. She gave Nick a hug and Michael too, shooting Chuck a dirty look. “I asked you about Nick years ago. You said you’d talked to him and he was okay. It was girl problems you said and you didn’t want me bringing it up to him.”
“He never did that,” said Nick. Chuck threw up his hands and spun around, placing his hands on his hips.
“Did you kill mom?” asked Michael. “Did you?”
Chuck turned back, face red and you laughed, his gaze turning on you.
“She died in a car accident for fucks sakes! Nick almost died too! I would never hurt her.”
“You’re a good actor but not that good,” you said. “He’s lying about something.”
“This bodyguard, this fucked up guy-” said Chuck, shaking his head. “He’s insane and he’s feeding into all of this. None of it is true. None of it. I should have talked to Nick instead of brushing it under the rug but-”
“Call my friend fucked up again and see what happens,” said Jared, his eyes narrowing.
“What is happening! This is all insane!” said Chuck.
“How did you meet Chuck?” asked Jensen to your mom. “He meet you on a bad day? Do something very gentlemanly but it reminded you of Brian?”
“How do you know that,” she asked quietly. Jensen nodded and took a deep breath. She shook her head and he sighed. “He...Brian saved a woman from a mugging.”
“A mugging that was staged,” said Jensen. “Chuck wanted you. He wanted your attention. His wife was in the way. Your husband. The kids would have been too much so he left them alone, left the three of them to raise themselves. Now that you might be close to Y/N again, the idea of sharing you like any other sane person on the planet got to be a bit too much, didn’t it Chuck?”
“I don’t know where you came up with this crazy idea to turn my family against me, kid,” said Chuck. “None of that is true. It’s all a crazy theory in his head! I’m not perfect, I never said I was. But I love my family. I loved my wife. He’s the one with the insane theories. He’s the one that’s nuts. The guy was freaking tortured for a month, you think he’s gonna be all there after that?”
“How would you know that,” asked Jensen, keeping his head high as you stared at him and swallowed, thinking of the small scar on his back. “No one aside from my old team members and military personnel would know that. Wouldn’t even pop up on a background check. Y/N doesn’t even know that. But somehow her family man step-father does. I think we’d all be curious to know how it is you know so much about me, Chuck. Big fan? Or was I supposed to get the treatment some other family members got, hm?”
“What are you talking about? You told me!” said Chuck.
“I never-”
“You called me the other night and we got talking and you told me a bit about your background and-” said Chuck, Jensen turning around. “You’re saying that wasn’t you cause it sounded a hell of a lot-”
“No, Chuck, it wasn’t him,” you said. “What is going on, Jensen?”
“The impossible,” said Jensen, his head turning in every direction. “I was right about it being your dad. I was wrong about what one though.”
Quiet footsteps came from down the hall, a tall figure popping out into view.
“Everybody went to such a fuss for me it seems,” he said.
“Brian?” asked your mom, eyes wide.
“Dad?” you said. He smiled and you returned it, walking over to him, Chuck grabbing you quickly before Jensen could and shoving you back at him.
“Thanks,” said Jensen, Chuck still scowling.
“Oh, you’re on my shit list for a long time after tonight,” said Chuck.
“Understood,” said Jensen. You didn’t understand and tried to move away but Jensen pinned you back against his chest.
“Jensen, it’s my dad. I want-”
“S’okay, buttercup. I think your boyfriend is a little confused is all. Nothing nefarious is going on at all,” he said.
“But...the team and the guy that broke in…” you said.
“Actors hired by your bodyguard to perpetuate this fantasy he has of escalating the supposed danger in your life.”
“But I shot a guy last night,” you said.
“With a rubber bullet. He was fine. Have you ever been in any real danger? Or just think you were?” he asked.
“Where have you been?” asked your mom as you moved away from Jensen.
“Witness protection. Mugging I got involved in had to do with some drug syndicate. Very, messy, brutal, scary men that would do horrible things to you girls if they knew I had a family. I had to die and go live a new life,” he said. “I’m sorry. I’m happy you found Chuck and the boys. You guys deserved to be happy.”
You looked back at Jensen and he shook his head.
“I’m not wrong. It’s…” trailed off Jensen. “Somebody’s lying but it’s not me.”
“You were wrong about Chuck just now. You accused him and made us all think...and now you’re going after my dad just like that.”
“I knew it had to be your father. I assumed it was the one I thought was alive. It’s got to be Brian then. It has to be.”
“You’ve been wrong a lot,” said Chuck. “It’s entirely possible your boyfriend wanted to be the hero, Y/N, not me. Save a rising Hollywood star? I’m sure that looks good on a resume.”
“Y/N,” said Jensen as everyone cleared away from him. You shrugged when he tried to touch your arm, inching back. “Y/N, I told you this guy is smart. Smarter than me. This was his goal all along, to make you not trust me and get you alone.”
“Charlie, can you please look up and see if my father was in witness protection,” you asked. She hummed and the house was quiet for a few minutes until she walked back over with her computer. “Yes?”
“He got out just recently. He’s been job searching. Your manager appears to have just hired him this week for lawn maintenance. He was supposed to start his first shift tomorrow morning which explains how he got inside,” she said quietly.
“I was going to surprise you,” said your dad. “I actually am a heck of a landscaper now.”
“You were a software engineer,” said your mom.
“I didn’t get to choose my job exactly,” he chuckled softly.
“Y/N, just because he was in witness protection-”
“Jensen, please be quiet,” you said. He snapped his jaw shut but you saw his eyes pleading for you to believe him. “Jared, help Jensen pack his things. I no longer require his services. Leave now Jensen and I won’t press charges for this charade.”
“Y/N, I swear,” said Jensen, quickly glancing at his former teammates. “Guys, you know I wouldn’t-”
“You don’t make mistakes like that,” said Ash quietly. “I’ve never seen you make a mistake that big.”
“Unless you did it on purpose,” said Benny. “For what? I don’t know. Impress the girl? I don’t know what’s going through your head, brother.”
“Jared…” said Jensen but Jared kept his head down.
“Pack up your stuff Jensen. Don’t make us do it for you.”
Jensen dropped his head but headed up to his room. You excused yourself outside for some air and jogged around to the side of the house, throwing a few pebbles at the window. It opened after a minute and Jensen poked his head outside.
“I believe you!” you said as loudly as you dared. His face instantly relaxed and he dropped his head down. “Sorry, I had to make it seem like I didn’t. I don’t buy my dad coming back magically just like that.”
“God, you don’t know how happy I am to hear that,” he said just as you saw Jared round the corner. You stared at him and he looked up, a small smile breaking onto his face. “You were acting too?”
“Of course. We all were. Brian’s shady as fuck, especially with somehow already being in the house? Let’s let him keep thinking he has the upper hand and then we get him when the timing is right,” said Jared.
“Jens,” you said, as he nodded. “I don’t care if you got kidnapped and tortured or anything you know. You’re still the strongest guy in the world to me.”
He smiled and you heard Jared groan beside you.
“Get a room you two,” he said.
“Jared, you watch her ass for me,” said Jensen.
“I will. Stick close by. We’re gonna need you when Brian shows his true colors.”
“Do you think he’ll hurt me?” you asked.
“No,” said Jensen. “I think he wants the time he lost with you back but he’s different now. Either way, I want to find out how someone in witness protection got my personnel file.”
“We’ll find out. Maybe think of ways to apologize to Chuck while you’re at it. We’re in for an awkward thanksgiving from the sounds of it,” you said.
“Yeah, sorry about the whole...accusing your step dad of murder thing. He didn’t make the best case for himself,” he said.
“I’m okay with it. He’ll forgive you. He wasn’t the world’s best dad anyways. Still better than Brian though it seems.”
“Sorry you got all the shitty luck,” said Jensen.
“It’s alright. Be safe, Jay,” you said.
“You too guys. I’ll be close by. Hopefully I won’t be gone for long.”
The Next Morning
“Hey,” you said, Jared giving you a nod from the kitchen island. “Where’s my dad?”
“Having coffee out back. I sent the team to my house to crash and get some work done,” he said with a look. “It’s just your family here apart from me.”
“I need to be alone with him Jared if he’s going to make a move,” you said.
“I’d much rather we let the team research and find out how he got Jensen’s file and paid for those people to come and take you first. We get evidence, that’s all we need and it avoids you being kidnapped.”
“Or we isolate me and I get close to him and make him think I hate the rest of them and he won’t drag me off to the middle of nowhere. It’d just be me and him here,” you said.
“Go slow with it,” he said. “For all our sakes.”
“I understand,” you said. Jared finished off his cup of coffee and stood up. “Did you ever doubt Jensen?”
“No.”
“Why not?”
“I’ve had a gut feeling about him since I met him. A good one.”
“Gen and I talk about you two. You look at each other...even when you weren’t getting along, we knew. You’re both as much as suckers as we were at the stage in the game,” he said.
“I’m happy you got him out of whatever bad place he was in,” you said.
“I got him physically out. The mental scars, those don’t go away. But he seems to forget about them a lot more since he’s hung around with you,” he said. “Don’t get me wrong, he was doing okay and relatively happy. But last night...that meant the world to him that you still have faith in him.”
“I never stopped,” you said.
“Y/N, the reason he got in that shitty position in the first place is because he’s a good person that wouldn’t be swayed to do the wrong thing. He knew when he was going against his unit he was setting himself up for a world of pain. He respects good people being good more than you can realize.”
“Keep an eye on him for me until this done?”
“Always do,” he said. “Good luck out there.”
“Thanks.”
You headed outside and found your dad sitting at the patio table, a cup of half drunk coffee set on the glass top.
“Morning,” you said, taking a seat beside him. He smiled and made some more space for you.
“Morning. Sleep okay?” he asked.
“Not really. Last night was intense,” you said. He lowered his head and played with the mug for a moment. “Dad.”
“If I told you a secret, would you keep it from your boyfriend?” he asked. You swallowed and he smirked. “It’s not going to take too long for your friends to find out my witness protection story is bullshit.”
“What’s the real story,” you said, sliding your pocket knife out of your pocket.
“Good. You carry a weapon on you,” he said, taking another sip of coffee. “This is good shit.”
“It’s imported. What’s the real story dad. Who wants to hurt me?” you asked.
“Your original manager did that whole event for a publicity stunt. It’s a separate event from what’s happening now. You were unfortunate, or fortunate depending on how you look at it, to have hired Jensen as your bodyguard. The kid needs you.”
“He’s the target, isn’t he, not me.”
“Yes. He’s always been the target. Why do you think they tried to knock you out and secure him? He’s the one they want.”
“How do you know that?”
“I read the police file.”
“How-”
“Y/N, I was never a software engineer. Your mother and you thought I was. You guys thought I was regular Brian. Regular little league coach, regular brags about his burgers on the grill, above average nerdy Brian. Don’t get me wrong. I’m all those things but there was a part of my life you never knew about.”
“Why arere you here?” you asked quietly.
“I had a different job but after the mugging, that’s all it was, I was injured and it got to the point of I could stop my job completely or I could put my wife and child through an inexcusable amount of pain and do something to help people, something no one ever knows about.”
“Daddy, what’s your job?”
“I protect people like Jensen. The good guys. The ones that stop crimes and do what’s right. I’ve been tailing him the past six months. Someone from his past was going to come back which is how he got on my radar and sadly they are very much after him. My job is to stop those people before my protectee even knows I exist. This is a unique situation with you being here though so we changed game plans and I exposed myself. I had to isolate Jensen. He’ll be targeted and my team will be waiting to catch this guy.”
“How do I believe you?” you asked.
“Kiddo, it’s okay if you don’t believe me. I’ve gotten used to the fact that I lost you a long time ago. I know I fucked things up with mom and the boys and Chuck and there was a lot of manipulation on my end too to get Jensen to make the assumptions he did last night. They were good assumptions, Y/N and I led him down that path without him realizing. I’m sorry for that. But my job is to make sure he stays safe and that’s all I can do.”
“I gave him your hoodie,” you said, putting the knife away and crossing your arms. “It was supposed to be your birthday present.”
“I saw it in your closet when I was doing laundry that day the mugging happened. Looks better on him,” he said.
“What, you a spy or some shit,” you said.
“I was a simple...analyst if we want to call it that,” he said. “Desk job. Completely safe. I didn’t start running around in dark corners until later. The mugging was just a mugging. I wanted to help that woman and I nearly died for it. On paper I had to. Life wasn’t supposed to go this way but it’s how it went. I choose that over you and mom and I’m sorry.”
“What makes Jensen so special?”
“He stopped a lot of people from getting killed because he wouldn’t accept an enormously large and tempting payout. He turned in his entire team. His team didn’t like that and contacted a group of bad people, told them he was the one that fucked up their plans before they all got arrested. He got jumped coming back from dinner out one night. One of those team members recently got parole for providing very important information on another case. Jensen was then at risk at that point. He got this other guy thrown in a shithole and it was Jensen’s presumption that he’d never be released and sadly that’s not the case. My group watches those at risk people and we intervene if revenge seems likely.”
“You make it really hard to be pissed off at you for everything when you’re like, trying to save my boyfriend,” you said.
“I was at your graduation,” he said. You turned your head and he smiled. “And your first day on set of your show. I might have veered Chuck into mom’s life after a chat at a bar. I thought he’d be good to her.”
“Why didn’t you just come out of the shadows?” you asked.
“Because the world unfortunately needs people to do what I do. It’s not glamorous. No one knows we exist. But it’s important. It’s important that people that do the right thing have the opportunity to live good lives.”
“Once again, how do I trust that you’re telling the truth?” you asked.
“You don’t have to trust me. It’s okay. I’m sure this individual will make a move on Jensen this morning. When Jensen walks back in this house, you’ll know I was telling the truth.”
“If you’re telling the truth, then what? Aren’t you supposed to be dead?”
“If you haven’t noticed, I’m getting kind of old to be running around,” he smiled. “I’m looking at retirement. Maybe a little cabin up near Seattle. I wouldn’t mind that.”
“LA’s big,” you heard behind you. “I’m sure we could find room for you here.”
You turned in your seat and saw Jensen standing there, a tired smile on his face.
“You could have let me in on the secret, Brian,” said Jensen as he gave you a hug and quick kiss. “Instead of making me look like a jackass last night.”
“Had to get you alone. Sorry about that,” he said. Jensen took a seat beside you, leaning forward and staring at him. “Hall’s dealt with I assume.”
“He was the only one left,” said Jensen. “How did you ever even know about me?”
“Don’t ask questions you know I can’t answer,” he said. “Sorry for using you as bait.”
“Better me than her,” said Jensen.
“I better get out of here,” he said, getting to his feet. You hopped up, your dad stopping in his tracks. “What?”
“You gotta explain to everybody what happened. Everybody,” you said.
“Alright. It’s probably best if I leave after that though,” he said. “I got involved too much as is.”
“If you’re retiring, why can’t you stay?” asked Jensen. “I eavesdropped.”
“I’m not cruel,” he said. “My wife and daughter moved on.”
“You’ve missed the past twenty years of my life. Since I was eight years old you were gone. I don’t want you to go,” you said.
“I can do so much, Y/N. But I can’t watch your mom love another man up close and personal like that all the time. I wouldn’t do it to them.”
“I think after everything, she gets what she wants, Brian,” said Jensen. “Your family is much more resilient than you give them credit for.”
“I have a few loose ends to tie up but I’ll be around more,” he said. He looked inside through the back door and nodded. “People are waking up. I think if we’re gonna do this, might as well do it now.”
“Dad,” you said as he walked inside. “I knew you were lying last night but I didn’t think you were a bad guy if that makes sense.”
“Really?” he asked.
“She takes after her brave and loyal father,” said Jensen, his arms wrapping you. “Sue her.”
“Alright, alright. You’re making coffee kid. I’m gonna need more to get through this.”

(Part 1) Triple W Mafia George x Fem! Y/N series
Warnings: Swearing! that’s it really (unless I've missed something then please let me know)
Word Count: 2,174
Summary: George Weasley is a renowned Mafia boss who took over from his Father Arthur once he retired, to carry on the Triple W mafia legacy. The only mafia known to be able to keep the Death Eaters (their rival mafia) at bay. However there is one item that they stole from the Triple W’s which George is determined to get back...his mothers necklace, the family heirloom. Y/N Greyback has been forced to comply with the Death Eaters wishes as her family are high up members. What happens when George and Y/N meet? And what happens when they fall in love?
Series Masterlist
The lights were dim in the what looked like to be an old bar room, the red hue coming from the red lamp shades hitting the walls. Smoke from cigars fogging up the top half of the room barely keeping the floor below visible. At each table there were groups of men, all sitting in perfectly tailored suits, sipping on their glasses of whiskey, laughing and having a good time. At the back of the room however, sat one man, alone. His elbow propped up on the arm of his chair, his finger brushing over his top lip as if he were deep in thought. His other hand held the same glass as every other man in the bar, lazily not caring if it were to fall and smash everywhere.
The man, George Weasley, a tall ginger man who’s eyes were the dark but kind shade of brown. Although seemingly intimidating, George had a kind heart, if he seen someone being attacked or robbed in the street, everyone would end up feeling bad for the attacker by the time George was finished with him. He had no time for the scum who go out of their way to make someone else’s life a living hell in order for them to feel a small, temporary taste for a God complex.
George had only recently taken over the title of the Triple W Mafia Boss, when his father Arthur had decided it was his time to retire and pass over the family ‘business’ to one of his sons. George was one of 6 sons and one daughter within the Weasley family. His identical twin brother Fred was technically supposed to become the next Mafia boss, as he was the older twin. But, he had decided that his brother George was more fit to the job than he was. So, George gratefully took over the role and appointed Fred and his younger brother Ron, to be his sort of ‘Body Guards’ although, of course George was far from needing any form of help when it came to beating or killing a criminal, it was still always good to have a little back up sometimes.
“Hey Georgie, what’s the plan then? What we gonna do about these damn Death Eaters?”
George sat, not moving, deep in thought. ‘What was he going to do about those Death Eaters?’ He has no where to start, the bastards are constantly on the run. He was determined to find their whereabouts however, as they had stolen something very precious to him, his mother’s necklace. The Weasley family heirloom.
-
In a room that was very clearly abandoned and covered in moss and mould, sat groups of men and some women in black cloaks with peculiar pointed hoods. These people, in contrast to that of which the Triple W members, appeared extremely intimidating. The members of Triple W were intimidating, but these were the sort of people no one would want to encounter in the streets, day or night. There was no smoke from cigars in this small dingy room, there was however and eye watering stench, that was so strong some of the Death Eaters swore they seen a slight foggy green haze floating around the room.
All cloaked members were sitting in a circle all surrounding their leader Tom Riddle, or as he likes to call himself ‘Voldemort’. A tall man (not as tall as George) with black, short curly hair. He wasn’t wearing a cloak like his ‘followers’ but was wearing something that looked more like a bath robe, it was all black of course to fit in with the rest. All were listening in carefully to what he was saying, all apart form Y/N Greyback, daughter of Fenrir Greyback, a man who is considered very high up in the Death Eater mafia. She was sat in the corner, wearing a contrasting blood red dress that hugged all of her curves perfectly. Her Y/H/C hair was curled at the ends in neat ringlets, and she had some makeup on but not too much so she looked ‘dolled up’.
“We all know that the Triple W are cowering out in some fancy old bar, trouble is we don’t know where, I’ve had a few out scouting round the area, unfortunately they have all been caught” Riddle speaks out gesturing and engaging with his followers.
“What do you suggest we do then sir?” Said Fenrir who was sitting right next to where Riddle was parading around the room.
“I say we send out our most valuable member, of course, real them in, make them vulnerable” he smirked
“You don’t mean…”
“Oh yes, but I do, your daughter shall make excellent bate my dear friend, for she wears what Weasley most desires” Riddle finishes
Y/N too busy sat in the corner reading an old book, didn’t even notice that every Death Eater members eyes were on her, all smiling to themselves.
This may actually work, if we send out Y/N who is wearing that incredibly expensive looking, diamond necklace, it may just lure the idiot ginger straight to us” Fenrir laughed.
So their plan was set, send Y/N as bait and hopefully George would follow.
- George still hadn’t moved from the position he was sat in, he hadn’t taken a single sip of his drink, his eyes focussed and barely ever blinking. He was seemingly ignoring every person who tried to get a word out of him for some sort of plan to take down their Rival mafia. Sure he had killed a lot of spies they had sent out, but he was getting absolutely no leads on where exactly they were coming from, Riddle was smarter than he thought. It seemed he had Death Eaters coming from all over the country in all different directions and disguises. George had to find some way in order to track down where exactly they were based.
The sounds of other members arguing, specifically Fred and Ron who were standing right next to where George was sat, started to sound like a horrible ringing noise, it was driving him insane, how could he concentrate when these buffoon’s were yelling nonsense at each other.
“WILL YOU ALL SHUT UP” He yelled now getting up from his seat and walking to the middle of the smoky room.
“I can’t fucking think when you’re all fighting and arguing with each other on what we’re going to do. I am very aware that those bastards are close to finding us, alright? They’ve gained more members in the past few months than I can count on my two hands. Problem is, they’re coming from all over the country, there is no set direction from where they’re all coming from, meaning that they aren’t coming from their base. This brings us to our next problem, what we’re going to do about it. The only thing I can suggest right now, which I believe may actually be our only two options, is either we leave and find a new base OR we send out multiple people all round the general area of here just outside the boarders of this town where the forests are. Each mile will have two of our members, armed and ready to capture and interrogate anyone that comes from outside the town. This includes anyone who seems innocent to the eye I.e. a mother and child as we all know by now there are families who have been a part of the Death Eaters for years, long enough for them to welcome their children. If you see a mother and child however, you of course don’t attack them straight away, you take them for questioning and more importantly, you look for that damn skull snake monstrosity that they all have tattooed on their left forearm.”
George stands looking between each of his guys trying to gauge what they were thinking by their faces.
“So what’s it to be? Hands up if you think we should move”
No one put their hands up and George smiled knowing that everyone in Triple W are too loyal to the town of Diagon to even consider leaving.
“Good choice boys, now” he rubs his hands together “who’s volunteering to be part of the watch team?”
- Y/N couldn’t believe her ears when she heard the plan to trick Triple W into following her back to the Death Eaters. She also had no idea that the beautiful silver diamond necklace that hung lazily round her neck was the stolen Weasley heirloom.
The actions of her family disgusted her, she knew that what they stood for and what they were doing was wrong, but putting her in harms way all over a stupid rivalry, AND tricking her into thinking that the necklace she had was a gift. She felt so stupid for believing them, Y/N had no options but to accept that she was going to have to go along with their horrendous plan and bait George and other members of Triple W into following her back into her family and Riddle’s evil grasp.
“Perfect” Riddle smiled grimly when Y/N accepted
“But of course, we can’t just lure them in, in one mere night, no, you have to spread this out over the course of a few days. Have him become intrigued by you, follow you a little while. You’ll be staying in a place called the Leaky Cauldron, don’t let him see you in there, it’ll blow your cover. Make sure he only sees you walking through the streets. Got it?”
Y/N tentatively nodded her head
“Good, and then, when the time is right, you’ll lead him straight here. We’ll be in communication with you, don’t let me down”
Y/N shakily made her way to Diagon, bags packed and the necklace still hanging round her neck. She had since changed into a black, silk dress, helping the bright silver of the necklace stand out against the dark colour of her clothes, further, of course to draw George Weasley’s attention.
Once she had settled into her room at the Leaky Cauldron, she was given specific instruction to make sure she wondered round the street at night, as that is most likely when Triple W members will come out from wherever they were hiding.
Y/N took a step out into the cold crisp night air, her heels click clacking off the stone pavements. She couldn’t help but take in the beauty of the town, cobblestone roads winding all through it, the windows on each building slightly askew but somehow didn’t seem out of place. It was as if she were walking through an old victorian town.
Snapping her thoughts back to the task at hand, she pulled her black shawl over her shoulders more and continued to wander aimlessly round, trying to find some form of clue as to were Triple W were hiding.
- George was more than satisfied with the outcome of the meeting they had today. He had 40 people on a list to keep watch each mile surrounding Diagon, meaning that all 20 miles would be covered. They all had their instructions ingrained into their heads and were ready to get to work the next day. Fred and Ron as usual would stay within Diagon with George, communicating to those who were out surrounding the area getting updates and passing round information. George had also decided to send a few extra spies out, including his younger sister Ginny to be on the look out for any Death Eater members who may still be lurking round the town.
George, Fred and Ron made their way out of the old bar room, and onto the streets. George made sure that they each had means of contacting each other. Fred whom George would normally live with, agreed that they each should have their own flats or place to stay in order to cover more of Diagon, and therefore be more accessible to those out in the forest. With their last goodbyes and a few phone calls to book places to stay, the three brothers separated all going in opposite directions.
George headed down the street, his hands becoming slightly red from the cold, and he could see his breath in the air. The dim orange streetlights barely lighting up the path as he walked past the old crooked houses and shops.
Just a George turned the corner he bumped into someone, a woman, dressed in a black dress and shawl.
“Oh I’m so sorry miss, I wasn’t looking where I was going properly, these damn street lights barely light up 2 feet in front of you. Are you alright” George asked looking into her eyes with worry
“I’m perfectly fine, sir, thank you” she smiled back and walked away
But George followed her with his eyes, more specifically he followed her neck, because what was hanging from it made him do a double take. He knew those diamonds from anywhere, they way they glistened brightly in every light. Was that, his mother’s stolen necklace?
