#i wanna eat the fluffy snow

[that-gay-jedi]

I normally don't mind working Saturdays bc having Mondays off on the reg gives me like ~5 extra days off per year, but maaaaaan ughhhhhh some Saturdays I just want to be in sync with everyone else

[dawnbreak81]

it would appear I cannot contain my mania to the tags alone, for I have hit the 30 tag limit, so concisely continuing:

1- I LOVE HER SO MUCH

2- YOU DID FUCKING AMAZING SHE'S SO SO SO SO COOL

3- PERFECTION.

4- the genshin artstyle really does bbgify people, huh

5- the way I had to stifle a scream when I saw "Eula" and the unhinged violent screeching it turned to when I read "Vetur" tHAAT ASSHOLE- anyway

6- the two of them when they were young always make me so emotional AHhh 😭

7- but. You know what makes more onions?? THAT. LAST. DIALOGUE.

8- Please never stop this heart trampling. It's incredible.

9- I am sO SLEEP-DEPRIVED ok byeeeeee :)

[Seiren • Starsilver Sparrow]

“Eula, how would you feel if I suddenly get amnesia, hm? You know like Vetur finally having enough of me and shoving me off the balcony—" “Sister, Sir Meier would have a stroke if he were listening to our conversation,” Eula briskly piped in, lowering her chipped teacup with a delicate clink before shooting an eagle-like glare at her older sister. “However, more importantly why would you suggest such wretched events? Is Vetur being bothersome, once again? I thought he had become responsible and stopped after I had made him slip on his own clothes—MMF.” The older sister groaned, plucking another biscuit from the tray and warningly held it up to the younger’s girl’s indignant glower as she menacingly munched.

“It’s only hypothetical, you funny little lemon. I’ll get a mirror - you’re all blown up like an angry pufferfish.” She tapped the biscuit against Eula’s scrunched up nose and slowly pushed it into her mouth. “Keep this up and you’ll only get porridge for the next week, you hear me?” - - -

Pain rattled through her gritted teeth as a gloved fist yanked her up by her knotted hair. Smouldering eyes of glowing coal glowered down resentfully at her behind a cracked mask, with the distant groaning curses of fallen Fatui heard in the background as they attempted to crawl out from pieces of rubble and jutting stalagmites of golden creedite.

“What the hell is this?”

She smirked, blood smudged across her battered lips. Past the shattered frame of the tavern’s window, the hilt of the scythe glinted in the flickering broken light and Adrik’s hand curled over its blade in a last futile attempt.

How bloody damn hilarious.

“Hey! What are you gawking at?” The agent jerked onto her hair, his fire-water tinged breath spewing against her face, “Damn it, are you deaf?! Listen to me, you knight fool!!”

Blunt spikes dug into her cheek as a gauntlet slammed against her face. She spat out a hoarse curse, blood spattering from her lips and she venomously fixed a glare at the bloodless grin. Knees immediately slammed to the rocky ground, as the agent dropped her to the ground. Gloved fingers reached to peel away the draped bloodied locks of hair from her face, crooked teeth stretched.

“Now, I can see my punching bag a bit more clearly.” He leered, flicking a strand of copper with deep chuckle rumbling from his throat, “Oh! Look at this blood - So young and vibrant!”

Acrid burning crawled up her throat, eyes dilated in trembling rage. She smacked away the lingering touches, letting wisps of hair tear out from her bloodied hairline.

“Get ya damn mitts out of my hair.” she hissed out, defiance sharply flashing across her glower, “And just get this over and done with, you bastard.” The agent coughed out a surprised laugh, flexing the stained brass reinforcers with eager clicks. He stepped back as he pulled the flask from his jacket and popped its lid off, swinging its contents down his mouth. He wound in his fingers into an anticipating fist while he drew it back. Bracing for the impact, she closed her eyes as she tightly held her vision in her bleeding hand.

“I’d rather die remembering the lifetime we spent together, than not recognise your face when I see you again.” - - - YIPPEEE finally was able to finish this phew. Anyways say hello to Seiren, my chaotic little limb-hogging treasure hoarder! She's one of my older guys, she's been in my brain since 2022! She's one of Rai's old friends and I can't wait to yap about her, about her wife and about her daughter, and also yap about the whole Aster's Oath. She's one of the characters who are highly important to the main storyline! (Yes I did look at the genshin treasure hoarders and went what if murderous lesbean. and yes that is how she was birthed) Ok lols I'll stop rambling, but please keep an eye out for her in future stuff! :D

wanna take a look inside you

nc-17, stalker!Jaemin, Jaemin/female reader, cunnilingus, crack

~~~

Your stalker really cares about you.

~~~

Why the fuck is it snowing again? Just why? you groan, as soon as you open your eyes and see all the fluffy snowflakes falling behind your window. 

You reluctantly roll out of your warm bed and start getting ready for the day. You should be rushing through your morning routine, since you have to get to work, but you’re almost deliberately slow. You’re just trying to delay the inevitable, which is having to shovel half a meter of snow out of your driveway and your car, and scrape off the ice from your car windows. You’re seriously considering calling in sick, just to not have to deal with standing outside in snow and fighting your flimsy plastic shovel and tiny ice scraper. 

You’re pouring yourself a cup of coffee when you stop at the sudden glimpse out of your kitchen window. What the hell. 

Your driveway is already nicely and precisely shoveled, with all the snow neatly piled up on one side. Not only that, your car is completely cleaned, covered with only a small layer of freshly fallen snow, indicating that whoever took mercy on you did it only a while ago. 

You sit down behind the table and absentmindedly scratch behind your dog's ears while chewing on toast. 

Maybe one of the neighbors did it? Or maybe there is some kind of a community service? Which is weird. You just moved into this area and by the looks of it you would expect to get your car stolen rather than cleaned. 

Hmm, you think. Maybe the neighborhood here isn’t that bad. 

(Narrator voice: It is actually that bad.)

~~~

Ironically, a few days later you do end up calling in sick. The cold winter weather got to you and after an evening of feeling like shit you woke up with fever, sore throat, and no will to live. 

You blindly feel around your bed to search for your phone, eventually finding it under your dog (Oof, move, you fat fuck), and call Jaemin from HR, in your office also known as Hot Jaemin from HR, to inform him that you’re taking a sick day. 

He picks up immediately after the first ring and with his completely pleasant, friendly, and only slightly creepy deep voice, he takes your note and wishes you to get well soon. He even asks if there are some work related heads up to pass to your coworkers, just like the nice and considerate guy he always is. If only every coworker was like Jaemin (nice, competent and hot), work would be much more bearable, you sigh. Sometimes he even sits down with you for lunch in the breakroom and offers you some home baked pastry while he talks about his cats. Really, just an overall nice guy. 

You finally hang up and burrow yourself back under the covers, when you notice the time on your phone. 6:58. Huh? I must be delirious, you think hazily, already drifting back to sleep. He’s not even supposed to be at work yet.  

~~~

When you finally emerge from your supposed delirium (also known as common flu) two days later, both of which you spent almost entirely just sleeping, you take a gloriously good hot shower and head to the kitchen, wondering what you will be able to scavenge from the fridge. 

Thankfully, it seems well stocked. So you quickly make a sandwich with some fresh ham and vegetables, scarf it down like a madwoman, after barely eating for two days and put the plate into the sink.

The dishes are also done. 

The house is actually pretty spotless, you squint as you look around. Even more than usual - no socks anywhere, no cups with forgotten tea. Dog looks fed and happy. 

The laundry machine beeps to announce that it’s finished. 

Wow, it must have been really bad, because I don’t remember doing any of that. Good job, sick me, you mentally pat yourself on your shoulder. 

~~~

You open the door to get out of your house for a nice walk and you stop dead in your tracks.

What the actual everloving fuck. 

Right in front of your doorstep there is a line of six mice, nicely ordered and completely dead, and you barely manage to prevent your dog from taking a good sniff. 

You retreat back to your house, pulling the dog with you and you lock all the locks on the door. 

You don’t even own a cat? 

~~~

You would swear the oil change light in your car was blinking for the past two months. Like, it had been mocking you and your procrastination. You felt bad about it, but ignored it, because who would want to deal with it unless you really have to? 

Well, it’s not blinking today. 

Which must mean only one thing - the light is broken now too. Which might also mean some electronic failure.

You frown. Karma for being lazy found you and there goes your free Saturday. 

And then it finds you again 2 hours later for being an idiot, when it turns out the oil does not need to be changed and the whole electronic system in your car is working alright. You made the mechanic check twice because you could swear you’re not making it all up, just to end up looking like a dumbass in front of the whole shop. 

You go home in shame and then you dig out the car manual you once threw into a cupboard and never read. 

~~~

Ugh, this guy again. You fight the urge to run, but he has already noticed you and you don’t want to look weak. Or afraid. But you are, a little. 

Walking on the same street, your creepy neighbor is approaching you from the opposite direction and you’re already bracing yourself. 

He never lets you go just with “Hello,” he always tries to flirt creepily and invite you for coffee, last time he even tried to grab your hand. You shudder at the memory. You hate these kinds of slimebags and their audacity. But you’re afraid he might snap if you really tell him off. 

So, you’re not sure what to do, you’re always just distantly polite and doing your best to not give him any signal that he might interpret as his attention being welcome. 

But you did start bringing pepper spray with you and going everywhere with your dog. Not like this fat fuck could ever protect your from anything, but still. For mental support. (But seriously, why is it getting so fat? You make a mental note to take him on longer walks, despite the shitty neighborhood.)

He’s getting closer and you’re already feeling the anxiety, when he swiftly crosses the road to get to the opposite side of the street. He walks faster. It’s like he’s avoiding you. Not only that, but he’s limping and his nose is bandaged as if it were broken. 

What could have happened to him? you wonder. Maybe he bothered the wrong girl and her boyfriend went to teach him to leave women alone, you chuckle. Who knows. 

~~~

You suddenly startle out of your sleep to the sound of breaking glass. It's a deep night but you are barely gathering your wits from being so crudely woken up, but you can hear a strange commotion from downstairs. 

Burglars, is your first thought. You’re shaking hard but you slowly and silently tiptoe to your closet to get a broom, the only weapon you can think of right now. A broom in one hand and your phone in the other, with the police dialed up, just waiting to press a call, you pad down the stairs to your living room where the sound came from. 

The lights are already on. And in there there is-

“Jaemin??? What are you doing here?” you scream. 

Right in the middle of your living room is Hot Jaemin from HR, disheveled and slightly out of breath, and just about to finish hog-tying a masked man. He pulls the rope tightly and kicks the man into the ribs for good measure. He stands up and turns to you with a bright and wide smile. 

“Y/N! Go to sleep, I got it!” he says happily and throws you a thumbs up. He ignores the question.

“B-But-” you take a step forward but Jaemin stops you. 

“Be careful, Y/N, there is glass. I threw a vase at him, that fucker really thought he can mess with me like that,” he snorts. “Just go back to sleep, I’ll clean it up and deal with this bag of dicks.” he urges you gently. 

“H-How are you going to deal with him?” you’re confused. Jaemin’s smile gets even wider. 

“I’ll deal with him, I have tools in my car. Don’t worry about it.” he brushes you off. 

“You know what, I’ll just call the police,” you wave your phone, barely out of shock from what just happened. 

“Okay,” Jaemin sighs with dramatic exasperation. “But it will take forever while you could have just left it to me and gone to sleep.”

You squint at him suspiciously and press the dial. 

~~~

“So, that would be all, Mrs. Y/L/N. We will contact you about the further proceedings,” the police officer clicks his pen off and gathers his papers. Your kitchen is still flashing red and blue from police cars parked outside. 

“Thank you, officer, I really appreciate it,” you beep back at him. This police thing turned out to be a lot more serious and lengthy than you expected.

“Don’t thank me, miss, you should thank your..uhhh…” he looks up at Jaemin, who is standing behind you with his hands on your shoulders. 

“Husband,” Jaemin offers, with his signature bright smile and you fight the urge to step on his foot. 

“Yeah, that. Anyways, if you have any questions, call us. Good night!” he salutes you with two fingers and brusquely walks out of your house. The cars leave one by one and then you’re alone. With Jaemin. 

You turn back to him. 

“I am not sure what to think about all of this, but thank you, I guess. But I have a lot of questions and I want answers to all of them,” you stick a finger right in the middle of his chest. 

“Okay, of course. Whatever you want, Y/N,” Jaemin offers. It’s the first time you see him look anything else but bright and cheerful. He looks almost unsure. 

“I’m now going to sleep and if I find out you’re still in this house, I’ll call the police again. On you.” you threaten. “You have 2 minutes to leave,” you add and pointedly look at the clock on your kitchen wall. 

“Oh, okay, let me just…” he gathers his rope that the cops left behind and his jacket and hurriedly slips on his shoes. He’s in the door in thirty seconds, waving at you. 

“See you at work!” he squeezes your hand briefly and runs out of your house. 

Why do I always attract these weirdos, you sigh and drag yourself upstairs to your bedroom. You fling yourself on the bed and you suddenly really feel how tired and exhausted you are from all the adrenaline. It would be really for the best to just sleep, you decide and crawl under the covers. 

But the sleep is not coming, you’re just thinking about everything that happened. You keep tossing and turning, ending up staring out into your bedroom window. 

Suddenly, a phone display lights up in the crown of a nearby tree. You decide to pointedly ignore it and you flip to the other side, turning your back to the window. You grab your dog, who’s been snoozing peacefully throughout the whole night and snuggle into his white fluffy fur to sleep. 

~~~

The next day at work you don’t waste any time. After throwing your bag at your desk you change direction right into the HR office. 

You don’t knock, just let yourself in, meeting Jaemin who is currently sitting behind his desk, unpacking his things for a day. He looks up at you, smiling. 

You cross your arms and point at the nametag on his desk that says “Na Jaemin, Head of HR” with your chin. 

“Ironic, huh?” 

“What’s ironic?” he straightens up, smile unwavering. 

“I can’t even report you, you asshole.” you frown. “And I don’t really want to go to the police because you did save my life.”

“Well that’s bad.“ he nods solemnly.

“It really is. So… Care to explain what you were doing at my house?” 

“Guarding you?” he answers like it is the most obvious thing in the world.

“Wh-guarding?? From what?” you ask incredulously. Oh. “Okay don’t answer.” 

“Yeah,” he laughs. “You know that as a head of HR I have access to aaaaaaaaaalllll of your records, right?” he spins his pen between his fingers. “So I really couldn’t help but notice you moved into a really shitty location, Y/N. Really, there? I know how much you make, you don’t need to live there at all.”

“I’m saving money for my own house, okay?” you answer defensively. You couldn’t have possibly known it would be that bad. You thought that everyone was just exaggerating. “Why were you even keeping tabs on my address?” you ask him accusingly. 

Jaemin just keeps looking at you, smiling. It’s unnerving. Like a shark about to eat you, but with joy.

“...so you’re not gonna answer?” you frown. Of course. 

“I mean, isn’t that obvious?” he drawls, tilting his head as if he were mocking you. And you think it should be obvious, but at the same time, you never know what’s going on in Jaemin’s head. 

You sigh. “You know, next time JUST ASK ME OUT YOU MORON!” 

“Oh, yeah, I could have done that…” he startles with realization. “I guess I was too preoccupied.”

“With what? Figuring out my daily patterns? Putting a GPS tracker on my car?”

“How did you find that?” he asks surprisingly, pulling up his phone to check. 

You close your eyes and breathe deeply. Come on, you have dealt with worse. And he’s really hot *and* whipped, even though he has a particular way about it. And he saved your life. You could have a use for him. 

“Drive me home.”

“Sure,” he gets up immediately, picking up his jacket. 

“You’re not even gonna question me wanting to leave work just like that?” 

“Who do you think is processing your attendance records?” he winks at you and leads you out of his office to the parking lot with a hand on your waist 

~~~

“By the way, you didn’t answer.” you say while fighting with the seatbelt while Jaemin starts the car. “What were you doing at my house?”

“Uh. Is this now the time to tell you I’ve been sleeping in front of your bedroom door for the past few weeks?”

You can literally taste the headache coming. 

“I don’t think there is ever a good time for that.”

~~~

You open the door to your house and let both you and Jaemin in. Your dog comes running to welcome you and you’re not even surprised that it actually ignores you in favor of running into Jaemin,  who doesn’t wait to start playing with him, laughing and telling him what a good boy he is. 

More like a traitor. You frown at Jaemin pulling out a treat out of his jeans pocket and your dog chasing it hungrily as Jaemin teases him. Sold me for a piece of snack. 

“Let’s go upstairs before I change my mind.”

“Sure,” smiles Jaemin and stands up, suddenly taking a hold of you and picking you up over his shoulder like a bag of potatoes. 

“Hey! Put me down!” you yell at him, grabbing his ass and squeezing it. “I will fucking bite you!”

“Leave that for later…” he drawls in his creepy flirty voice as he walks up the stairs. He takes you to your bedroom and gently lowers you down on your bed. 

You really like the view from under him. He leans down to kiss your neck.

“Hey Jaemin..” you begin. 

“Hmmm?” he mumbles, continuing to kiss and lick your neck while his hands are working on taking your clothes off. 

“While you were sleeping outside my bedroom…Heards anything weird?” you ask. 

“Yeah,” he chuckles. “Pretty sure I heard my name at least once,” he bites into your collarbone. He takes off your shirt and pinches off the hooks of your bra in a second and you help take it off you. 

“And you still didn’t think of asking me out?” you ask disbelievingly. He pulls back a little and you get distracted by his shoulders. You start unbuttoning his shirt, just to reveal his beautiful full chest and muscular arms. Nice.

“You said Doyoung’s name once too.” he shrugs. He doesn't really meet your eyes.

“Oh yeah, Doyoungie from accounting…Haven’t seen him in a while, I wonder how he's doing…”

“He asked for a transfer. Doesn’t matter. Let’s not talk about him,” says Jaemin once again back to his bright smile and leans down to you, now fully committed to undressing you as soon as possible. He pulls off your pants together with your panties and lets his shirt slide off his body as well. 

“What are you gonna do?” you ask, while he shifts down your body. You instinctively spread your legs.

“Apologize,” he says while looking into your eyes and straight up dives into your pussy. 

You can tell he’s really sorry. He’s putting all the enthusiasm into eating you out, trying really hard to figure out what makes you tick and then applying it tenfold. You can feel him smile the moment you start making sounds.

You can feel yourself being close to coming and you try to tell him by pulling his hair, but in the end it doesn’t matter. He knows it already and he continues to flick his tongue over your clit even as you come, holding you by your thighs firmly so you don’t move too much to slip out of his hold. Once your orgasm starts to fade, he eases up a little, switching to slower, gentle licks with flat tongue, while you catch your breath, but in a minute, he’s back at it, relentlessly stimulating you as if you didn’t even have a choice about whether you want another round or not. 

You can only applaud his skill and stamina and let him make you come, with absolutely no guidance, for the second time, barely a couple minutes after the first one. 

While you’re coming down from your orgasm, feeling all liquid and brainless, Jaemin disentangles himself from your legs and crawls up the bed to drag you into his arms.

You turn to kiss him when you realize he hasn’t even taken off his jeans yet. You slide your hand to rub over his hard cock a little and he sighs and nuzzles into your neck. “Do you want…” you start.

“No. I haven’t deserved it yet,” he breathes out. “I’m already close though…” He looks like he’s fighting himself on that.

“Oh really?” you grin, and rise up to look better at his flushed face. “Well then get back to work?” you pull him by his (insanely attractive) sex hair. He whines, you don’t know if it's from pain or arousal, but it doesn’t matter.

“I’m going to sit on your face now, okay?” you whisper to him. 

“Uhhhh uhhh,” he closes his eyes. 

“Great. If you come, this one doesn’t count,” you laugh, and swing one leg over his leg to kneel over him.

~~~

You’re lying in your bed, sweaty and tired and almost falling asleep in Jaemin arms, when you suddenly remember. 

“Hey, actually...what about the mice?” 

He turns and smiles at you with a full Cheshire cat smile. Way too many teeth.

"Well..."

detailed fluffy/smutty headcannons! falling in love with harry james potter <3

no one requested this but i did a draco one n thats been quite popular so heres one for the angel himself. idk why these are so long though, help. i get carried away. anyways, i love boyfriend harry. harry james potter is just boyfriend. hes so soft n lovely, he was BORN to be a loving boyfriend. <3

WARNING! SEXUAL CONTENT. SMUT. 18+

• harry asks you out on the bridge in 5th year, after walking with you hand-in-hand. he confesses that he’s liked you for a long time, and gets all shy about it.

• he’s a bit of a blusher! (he’s so cute…)

• he feels like you’re one of the only people who understand him, it’s made him warm to you even more.

• it’s snowing and you tell him your hands are cold so he takes them, cups them in his and blows on them to try and warm them up.

• harry’s the sort of bf to share his scarf with you when it’s cold.

• although you two mostly hang out in the gryffindor common room.

• your first kiss is infront of the fireplace, he doesn’t reach to touch your face because he’s so awkward and shy, instead he’s holding your hands in his lap as he leans in.

• until he gets comfortable with you, he’s a bit of a stiff kisser (LMFAO)

• but after the first three days of being together, practice makes perfect because he can’t keep his hands off of you.

• he’s just a horny teenage boy, really.

• harry loooves kissing you. making out especially. he’s also a sucker for soft kisses - all over your cheeks AND your nose AND your fingertips.

• one night in the common room, things get a bit heated and he starts backing you into the wall. you’re both panting and kissing madly, but! then ron walks down and stares at you both, in shock. it ruins the mood, which pisses harry off because he was feeling so confident! ( awh bub:( )

• before bed the next night, harry starts asking ron for advice because he wants to impress you and doesnt want you to think he’s inexperienced.

• btw, if you cant tell already, he’s still a huge virgin.

• a few weeks have gone by now and you’ve been dating eachother happily. harry treats you like a princess.

• you really, truly are his princess.

• he knows you’re his girlfriend but it still surprises him sometimes. he’s constantly in awe of you. he worships you (in his head, he’s a bit too awkward to verbalise all those thoughts).

• harry’s cupping your cheek softly by the fire again, like your first kiss, only this time you’re both sharing open-mouthed kisses.

• ron told him to gradually get more…touchy…when kissing you, so he recalls rons advice and grabs one of your breasts with his free hand. you’ve never done it before, but you let slip a small moan in his mouth and suddenly harry’s heart is in his throat. racing.

• harry’s feeling confident again so he takes advantage of it, you’re pulling eachothers clothes off desperately.

• harry’s pale skin blushes so much when he sees you topless for the first time. he gets so hard seeing your tits.

• harry is SUCH a giver. he lives to please you. he realised this as soon as you started moaning against his mouth. he would give anything to hear those sounds!

• keen to make you moan again, he gets down on his knees and parts your legs, placing wet, open-mouth kisses over your pussy. his mouth feels so hot down there. and despite being a virgin, harry’s got an odd, natural talent for licking your pussy.

• he’s big on praise. he’s so verbal in the bedroom compared to outside.

• he tells you to play with his hair whilst he eats your pussy, he likes the feeling of it. his hair is so soft too, so you love it.

• “yeah, that’s my baby”, “your pussy tastes so good for me”, “i wanna fill you up right now”.

• overall, your first time with harry isn’t rough, infact he barely manages to last. they’re rugged (but soft and slow) thrusts. he fucks you gently and finishes inside you, in missionary.

• he’s a big cuddler. always is a big cuddler but even more so after swapping v-cards with you. he leads you by the hand to his dorm, and lets you sit with your back to his chest in-between his legs.

• ron doesn’t even question it, he just warns you both dangerously that if you start fucking again you are to take it OUT of the dorm.

• sleepovers become a frequent thing because harry struggles sleeping alone, due to his nightmares. you’re always there to change his sweaty pyjamas or rub his back until he falls asleep again.

• when he’s feeling sentimental and can’t sleep, he talks to you about his parents, and all the things he wishes he could say to them. he sits with you on the window ledge late at night, spilling his thoughts and watching the moon.

• he talks to you the most. out of everyone.

• he enjoys walks around the grounds with you, or sometimes he lets you join him under his invisibility cloak and you both explore the restricted areas of the school together, laughing like children.

• he’s mischievous with you, really mischievous.

• you think harry’s actually really funny. in a sweet, endearing way, not because he means to be. you’re always laughing around eachother, hitting eachothers arms as an expression of amusement. (SO CUTE!!!)

• you sit with him, ron and the other gryffindor boys in their dorm, tearing through chocolate frogs and beartie-botts beans late one night. you and harry have the time of your lives, enjoying eachothers company and stealing kisses when the others aren’t looking. you like harry’s friends, infact they’re your friends too.

• you live in his lap when you’re hanging out in his dorm.

• he’s inadvertently VERY possessive, he’s always touching you somehow to assert this. usually you’re in his lap so its fine, but even then, he holds you in place by your hips. you feel him give you a squeeze whenever dean stares at you for too long.

• harry’s skin smells of the forest, something deep and masculine. you love how he smells. you’re always tucking your face into his neck when you cuddle.

• harry isn’t one for grand gestures despite having alot of money. so when he first tells you he loves you, its simple and sweet:

• you’re on one of your usual walks, along the grounds, and he stops behind you, draping his arms over your shoulders, and whispers warmly onto the shell of your ear,

• “i love you.”

• then he turns you around to face him, handing you a small photo of the both of you, one he’d had framed as a token of his affection.

• in the photo you sway and dance with harry, and smile down at one of the happiest moments of your life preserved in the frame.

• “i love you too, harry.”

𝐋𝐄𝐓 𝐌𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐇𝐎𝐖 𝐌𝐔𝐂𝐇 𝐈 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔

— scenario: how twst characters show you how much they love you

— characters involved: riddle roseheart, leona kingscholar, malleus draconia x gn reader

— cw: fluff! reader is implied to be shorter than the character in leona and malleus's part

— a/n: happy international women's day! just wanted to write some fluffy troupes for you guys (after a really painfully long mia and my laziness)

were you late for the unbirthday party that riddle invited you to? don't worry, this cute boy won't scold you about punctuality

instead, he would ask for the reason that made you late

did crowley give you too much work again? did the trouble makers in his dorm drag you into some mess again? let this red haired dorm leader settle the burdens for you

riddle can be quite naggy sometimes, especially towards the dorm members when he spots them not following any queen of heart's rules

however in your case, he is naggy towards your own well being. did you take your lunch today? are you sleeping enough? did anyone bully you in school?

would occasionally invite you over to his dorm just to try out new pastries that trey made (the both of you are taste testers for trey's pastries and no trey totally did not try experimenting new stuff just to give you guys extra lovey dovey time)

i believe he never really read any romance books before, but starts picking them up once the both of you started dating, so that he could get a gist of what a boyfriend should do and how dating should be like

a little awkward sometimes but he tries his very best to make you happy

overall he's just a small little chipmunk that looks out for you in every way and tries to improve himself for you and a little clingy

he's like the.... most unbothered person in the whole campus

doesn't care what's going on as long as it doesn't bother him

has zero tolerance for pests

...... you do know that he doesn't see you as a pest, right?

his ears perched up whenever he hears someone mentioning about him

definitely had his sleeves rolled up tight in case he needs to fight whoever that was bad mouthing you

leona hates loud people, but he doesn't mind you talking his ear off and telling him about your day

[werewolfnightwalker]

De-aged Keigo

Part two!

.

The whole League stared as Dabi stepped through the villa's front door, his arms protectively wrapped around his cargo.

"What have you got there, Dabi?" Compress asked.

"The hell does it look like?" Dabi snapped back, tightening his arm around the bedraggled, winged boy in his arms as he stomped the snow off his boots, "It's Hawks."

"Uh… Hawks is a grown man, bro!" Twice pointed out.

"Thanks, Sherlock, I didn't realize." Dabi stopped just inside the living room, keeping his distance from the others, "He got hit by a de-aging Quirk while we were out. It's not going to last forever, but for the moment our little birdie is three years old." He looked down at the boy in his arms, his heart twinging.

Hawks was clinging to him like he was terrified of being put down, his face buried in Dabi's collar and clawed hands fisted in the back of his jacket. Even now that they were inside, the pitiful thing was shivering violently. Although his eyes were closed, his whole body was tense, alert; he was pretending to sleep, and Dabi assumed it was to avoid having to meet the others.

He couldn't say he blamed him; it had been difficult to get him to trust him when the Quirk first hit him, an hour or so ago. Hawks had panicked and ran away from him, only to faint once he got outside, from- as far as Dabi could figure out- a mix of hunger and the cold. Dabi had picked him up from there, and spent the whole walk back reassuring him that he was a friend. When he mentioned getting Hawks some food, the kid had finally seemed to give up struggling.

Good to know his younger self was as much of a glutton as his adult self, Dabi had mused. Now, he strode past everyone and made for the kitchen, shouldering the door open.

"Wait, where are you going? I wanna see him!" Toga cried, and Dabi felt Hawks flinch.

"Keep your voice down and your hands to yourself." He snapped over his shoulder, "I'm getting him some food. If you want to be useful, go get me some warm clothes he can wear."

He ignored Toga's grumbling as he slipped into the kitchen, kicking the door shut behind him. "Hey, little bird." He spoke softly as he looked down at his armload, "We're alone now, you can stop faking. I'm going to put you down, okay?" That said, he stepped up to the counter and gently lowered Hawks onto it, until his rump hit the granite countertop. He tried to move away, but Hawks held fast, letting out a shaky whimper.

"Cold-" He gasped, gilded eyes flying open in panic.

For some reason, Dabi couldn't stop himself from immediately pulling him back into his arms. "Alright, alright." He sighed as Hawks melted against him again. He… supposed he could make something to eat like this. He adjusted Hawks onto his hip and went to the pantry to see what they had. "How does ramen sound?" He asked.

Hawks didn't answer, but Dabi pulled two of the instant cups out and put them on the counter. He had to tear the top off with his teeth, but it was easy to turn the sink on and stick the cup under it to fill it. He stuck the cup in the microwave and stepped back, leaning on the counter to wait.

"You okay, birdie?" He asked, glancing down into the fluffy head of hair on his shoulder.

Hawks made a sad warbling sound, his wings fluffing and settling. "I'm okay." He mumbled, just as his stomach growled loudly.

"Uh-huh. Just hang on, food's cooking." Dabi promised, glancing up as he heard the door open. Twice, Spinner, and Toga were peering at them through a crack in the door. Dabi bared his teeth at them, but the numbskulls didn't seem to get the clear "fuck off" message.

"Hiii, Hawksie!" Toga cooed. Hawks turned his head to peer at her, his hand fisting on Dabi's shoulder. He didn't answer her, but Dabi didn't step in, waiting to see what he'd do.

"Oh… he's precious! I wanna eat him!" Twice gasped.

Hawks whimpered at that, his wings bushing and curling around him. "No one is eating you, birdie." Dabi assured him, just as the microwave went off. He stood up and pulled the cup out before grabbing a fork and stirring it. He tore the flavor packet open, once again with his teeth, and added it before giving it another stir. "Okay, here, bug. Eat." He pushed the cup into his hand before adjusting his grip on him.

"How come you get to hold him?" Twice complained.

"Because I'm not creeping on him while he's trying to eat." Dabi huffed.

"Dabi's warm." Hawks mumbled into his noodles, surprising Dabi and the others.

"Exactly." Dabi said smugly, "You lot scram, let the kid eat in peace." He walked over to the door and forced it shut with his boot, ignoring their complaints as he looked down at Hawks. "Enjoying your noodles, birdie?"

"Mhm." Hawks gulped up a mouthful, before twirling another portion onto his fork and holding it up, offering it to Dabi.

Dabi dutifully leaned in and took the bite, slurping the noodles into his mouth loudly.

To Dabi's amazement, Hawks giggled, before seeming startled by his own action. He fluffed his wings and looked away, like he was embarrassed, but Dabi watched him as he took another bite of noodles and 𝘴𝘭𝘶𝘶𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘦𝘥 them up, too.

After a few more bites, he glanced at Dabi again. "Who are they?" He asked.

"Who?"

"The girl, and the man in the mask, and the turtle?"

"He's a lizard." Dabi corrected.

"Are they your friends?"

"Uh… in a sense." He wasn't about to tell a kid they were a bunch of villains, now was he? "What about you? You got any friends?"

Hawks didn't answer right away, raising the cup and gulping down the broth. Dabi just waited, moving to open and prep the other instant cup. He had filled it with water and jammed it in the microwave by the time Hawks finished.

"I have one." He said at last.

His doll, Dabi guessed; he'd seen the ragged, old thing one of the times they'd spent the night at his apartment. He'd made his distaste for the thing a little too obvious, so Hawks had shoved into his closet and apologized, explaining that it was just sentimental.

"Yeah? What's their name?" He asked, anyways.

Hawks cooed, before the noise morphed into a yawn. His wings arched and quivered as his mouth stretched wide. He slumped back onto Dabi's shoulder, scrubbing at suddenly sleepy eyes. Dabi was taking the empty cup away when he spoke. "His name is Touya. He's warm, like you." He mumbled.

Dabi froze, the cup incinerating in his hand in seconds as the fork fell to the floor with a ringing clatter. "Touya, huh?" He repeated weakly, before he swallowed. He didn't think that Hawks- that Keigo- had remembered him at all. "Is he a good friend?"

"Mhm." Keigo hummed as the microwave went off, "I think I love him."

Touya thought he forgot how to breathe, his mind flashing through unwanted memories, both ancient and recent. "Well… I'm sure he loves you, too."

End.

A/N: Thank you for reading! I love childhood friends AUs. ^w^ There's a part 2 to this that I'll upload tomorrow, but until then, consider leaving me a tip so I can get my name changed!

[eustasskiddsprosthetic]

Here's a thought. What if growing up as a kid in an AU in a cold country, Luffy claims he has a big fluffy leopard friend called meow-meow who keeps him company and listens to him and his problems.

Yes, meow-meow is Law in his snow leopard form. Yes, I'm finally doing a childhood AU! I have so much lore for this. I'll share wips in due course.

Also, I caved and started writing SaboAce! Lots of ASL lore in this fic!

This is a long one, so strap iN!!

Despite being besties, Ace and Luffy weren't very close back in the day. That may be surprising to onlookers but it made sense then. Ace had a sort of inferiority complex over not being a 'legitimate' grandson and lashed out at Luffy over that.

Feeling lonely and bullied, Luffy ran away from home a lot. Not like Ace or even Garp cared. They had their own shit to worry about.

One day after a particularly bad argument, Luffy ran to the forest without even brining a weapon. It was dinner time. Ace ate all of his share of the porridge out of spite and Luffy furiously said that if Ace hated him that much, maybe it'll be better if Luffy just ran off and got himself killed.

Ace flipped him off and said that it didn't matter either way.

And here's Luffy, alone, cold and hungry in a place he doesn't even know. It's snowing now. People at school told him that it'll snow more nowadays and that he should stay inside. Did Luffy listen? No. Did Luffy want to listen? Nah.

Luffy was cold and shivered a lot by himself, that is, until a small snow leopard cub came towards him. He looked small and helpless but there's a fierceness in its eyes that scared Luffy. It looked like Ace's eyes.

"If you hit me, I'll eat you."

A growl.

Luffy frowned. He heard that even snow leopards have families. He wondered where this one was. Luffy wondered who's more violent—female or male ones. It didn't matter either way: Luffy would beat 'em up and eat 'em whole!

"Where's your friends? Don't you have any? Y-you can't eat me!"

Another growl.

Luffy looked around and he didn't sense anyone, or anything else there. If Luffy looked closer, he saw that he looked...

"Are you lonely?"

Silence. The little guy looked away, as if embarrassed. Luffy smiled for once and reached out to poke his nose. The guy sneezed. Ah. Luffy laughed for the first time in months, probably.

"You're like me, aren't you?" Luffy said softly. And then with the courage Luffy never had to face Ace, Luffy said, "You're like me! Let's be friends! Where do you live? I don't wanna go home. Ace's always mean to me."

And with the compassion Ace never had, the little guy agreed. He picked up Luffy's shivering body with his blunter teeth and took him back to his cave, a modest thing with a small fire and some fish. Luffy ate it and fell asleep quickly. The cub tried to wake Luffy up to chastise him but gave up quickly. He fell asleep too.

The next morning, Luffy was found by his home. Traitor! That cat told him he could stay! Anyways, that's one thing. The bigger problem is Ace was sitting there, right next to him.

"Ace...?"

Ace woke up at that. His bloodshot eyes made him look a bit insane like he's not really aware of what's going on. Ace sniffled.

"There's bear meat in the fridge. Cook it yourself." Luffy saw that Ace had scratch marks on his arms. Ace stood up and left before Luffy could ask more questions.

At least Ace didn't slam the door like he used to. Luffy was unsure whether to be relieved or afraid.

The next few days were tame. Ace was still quiet but he wasn't as angry at least. Ace even talked to Luffy about things he learnt in school and offered to teach him how to read. Ace was a good teacher, even if irritable and impatient. Luffy decided he need not be as afraid.

Alongside Ace being nicer to him, Luffy also snuck out to meet the cub more. To be fair, Ace knew but didn't say anything. With some heartache, he understood this sneaking out was something like payback so he let it be. But God Damn it, could Luffy be more subtle!

Picking flowers, catching frogs, hoarding pretty rocks. "Bro," Ace complained to his friend Sabo, "Is Luffy meeting up with a girlfriend-slash-boyfriend-slash-genderless-significant-other or a fucking cat in the woods?" Ace tried not to snicker when he finally 'caught' Luffy.

Understandably, Luffy got defensive.

"I'm hanging out with a friend and you aren't invited!" If anything, Ace seemed amused by that outburst. He smiled. Luffy saw why Ace kept getting girlfriends. Ace is quite handsome.

"Is it that cat?" Ace said. This is the first time Ace spoke to him in a not unkind way. Luffy unconsciously nodded. "Yeah, sure. Go ahead."

Luffy didn't know what to say. Ace said okay? For real? No catch?

"Introduce us some time. I need to thank him for saving your ass. He's the one who keeps bringing you back whenever something goes wrong. Tell him I said thanks. That's all."

"Ace-" Luffy looked like he'd cry when Ace pat his head and told him to come back in one piece.

"Have fun." Ace looked awkward as he finally said Luffy's name for the first time, "Luffy."

Luffy laughed and ran off. Oh boy did he have GREAT news to share with his new friend!! The cub tried his best to be pleased but he lost track somewhere and resorted to using his tail to stroke Luffy's face for the rest of the day. Luffy found it cute and ticklish.

Since that day, they meet up a lot, almost every day. Sometimes, they even meet at Luffy's house. It's on one such hang out that Ace formally admitted that he had a crush on someone.

Luffy was in the kitchen cutting meat and the cub was spread out on Ace's lap. Ace had so much fun stroking his fur that he simply blurted out, "I like Sabo. I wanna ask him out. What do you think?"

The cub looked up keenly. Ace supposed this one's probably smarter than Sabo but still pretty chill. Maybe Luffy was onto something for liking this one so much.

"Do you reckon I have a chance? Blink once for yes and twice for no."

He blinked twice easily. Ace punched him on the head. Luffy saw this violence and cried, hugging meow-meow protectively.

"Leave meow-meow alone! He didn't do anything wrong!"

"He said Sabo wouldn't go on a date with me!"

"Meow-meow doesn't know who Sabo is but he knows Sabo doesn't like bullies!" To prove a point, Luffy stuck his tongue out. "Bleh!"

Ace got mad and walked out. "Well, fine! I'll show you twerps what's up! I'll ask him out right now! Just you watch!"

Luffy and the cub cuddled on the couch when Ace came back a few hours later, hand-in-hand with a new fr-, no boyfriend called Sabo. Sabo seemed nice. He waved at Luffy and said meow-meow was cute. Luffy found it amusing that Ace looked shy but happy. Luffy had the feeling that Sabo would become someone important...

So, the routine nowadays is that Sabo would go over to study with Ace while Luffy would play with meow-meow in the living room. If it got too cold, everyone would gather around meow-meow for warmth.

It was wholesome and everyone gets closer or whatever. That is, until one day, Garp showed up after six months of being an MIA deadbeat. Imagine his surprise to find:

Ace and Luffy willingly sitting together.

A third blonde child resting on Ace's shoulder, contentedly reading a book full of words Garp didn't understand.

A fucking snow leopard sleeping on the living room floor

All three children lying back against said snow leopard.

Garp could either be calm and ask Ace what's going on or pretend nothing happened and make small talk. Instead, he pointed to Ace and the blonde child and said, "YOU TWO BETTER NOT BE UP TO NO GOOD!"

Luffy stood up first. "Nuh-uh! Ace and Sabo play with me and meow-meow! They're good boys! I like them!"

Ace look like he's going to cry at the sudden confession. Sabo woke up and quickly hugged Ace to comfort him. Garp got even more livid.

"Look at that. These kids are immoral nowadays. They're rushing things and doing things they shouldn't be doing!"

Luffy was about to stand up for them again but Ace told Luffy to sit back down. Sabo looked like he knew what's going to happen next.

"Shut up, you stupid old man. Sabo and I will fuck when we want to." Ace would flip Garp off but then a bushy white tail wrapped around his hand. What? Ace wasn't cold. Meow-meow had a habit of doing that whenever he thought anyone of the ASL trio was cold.

It seemed that Sabo was the only one who actually understood what meow-meow wanted to do.

"What do you even know? I haven't given any of you the talk!"

Ace was ready for this! "I know that either Sabo or I will get on top and from there we-" Meow-meow's tail went down, wrapped around Ace's hip and clutched. Since when was meow-meow this strong? Ace was more impressed than embarrassed. He cringed. Oh fuck, he's going through character development.

Garp merely laughed.

"Well! Looks like you can't do anything!" Garp said with triumph. Then, as suddenly as he came, he said he'd get some food and left them be.

Luffy wanted to scold meow-meow. Why did he hurt Ace so suddenly? Was meow-meow jealous? Meow-meow never looked like the type but then meow-meow looked so lonely. Luffy was upset that meow-meow never said anything. Was meow-meow making him choose between them? Why-

"Don't cry, Luffy," Sabo said. "Meow-meow's protecting Ace."

Luffy was dumbfounded.

"He's making sure that Ace doesn't run his mouth and get in trouble with Garp," Sabo said kindly. "He gets defensive over me and talks back to our teachers and gets in trouble even though he didn't do anything wrong."

"Is meow-meow making sure Ace doesn't get in trouble for protecting Sabo?"

"Yup!" Sabo gave Luffy a thumbs up as Ace groaned in pain. "Protect meow-meow too, okay, Luffy? Meow-meow loves you a lot."

"Uh-huh!"

As if he understood all that, meow-meow raised his tail and stroked Luffy's face, tickling him. Luffy started laughing. Luffy loved meow-meow too!

FFXIV Write 2024 - Prompt 01 - Steer

Words | 682 ——————–

“Faster!”

She could imagine it, the bite of wind at her cheeks and ears, the cold at her toes. The sound of snow crunching underneath as she paved her way through it, molding the terrain to her command like she was a god. A god rushing down a smooth, untouched hill on a sleekly polished sled. Her knuckles ached from squeezing the rim of it, her elbows. A bumpy ride regardless, she hit roots and stones. Almost tipped each time. Almost.

Calyx was a professional at this, even with just his one arm. He had said it was a different creature that had taken it each time she would ask, and always had a different, but elaborate story to go along with it. A morbol, a wolf, a chocobo, a wooly yak that had suddenly been bestowed with the mad desire for human flesh. He had said it was another person, once, too. That interested her the most. He never said that again.

“Watch out! It’s a bear!!”

“I see it.”

His voice was soft, as it always was. She had never heard him speak above a whisper. It helped reign in her delighted screeching. 

Somewhat.

“A BEAR!! I’m gonna jump over it…and it’s not gonna get me!”

Wicker creaked as she tugged on its handles, trying to pick up speed, trying to BE speed. She was going to fly over it, she could see it in her mind. She could make the jump! She bent low in her sled-

“Oh, but what reach it has!”

“Calyx!!”

“It’s gonna get ya!”

She did fall, then, as the arm holding the basket she sat in made her fall. Made her tumble to the ground and squeal. The stone was not as fluffy as she imagined snow to be. It wasn’t at all like falling into a cloud of iced cream. “Waaaaah!” A loud, albeit playful, wail as said bear did get her. Her laughs were shrill, hiccuping, face red as she was tickled, as he *chomp chomp chomped* at her. “W-wait! My…my dress! My…you’re getting it dirty!”

He sat back, apologized, murmured that it was ‘just life’, that bears ‘had to eat too’.

But he had gotten her this dress- a coat, really. Powder blue and fluffed with so much fluff, balls of fur puffing out and swinging on woven strings. Pretty wooden buttons and shiny, pearlescent stitchings. She dusted herself off, stood. It was her most favourite dress. The prettiest. He had seen it while he was away, said he thought she would look cute in it. She did. She looked very cute, felt very pretty. “I wanna go again!”

“Now-”

“I wanna…I wanna…the bear- I was gonna fly over it. I was going so fast. Did you see!”

“Yes.”

“And I almost made it the whole way down this time.” She picked up her shiny sled, the wicker basket. Hoisted it over her head and held it high. “And I almost made it. And I couldn’t get around the bear.”

“I know.”

“I wanna go again, Cal! I wanna-”

“Brother.” 

She jumped, shrieked. Dropped the basket on her head and started running before she was grabbed. The basket grabbed. She wriggled, fought.

She was held.

“Mother would be displeased.” The masked man rumbled, eying the pair. Eying her dress.

They were to be reprimanded for ‘slacking’, for being caught outside of prayer.

“P-please, Cal…can’t I keep it? It’s mine!”

She was wailing proper now, blubbering into the pretty sleeve of her pretty dress as she held his hand. “It’s mine and you…and you got it for me! Please don’t let them take it away! It’s mine! I like it! I’m sorry- please don’t take it away!”

It was dark where they were going. It only made her cry harder.

“I-I-it’s mine and…I just wanna…go sledding I...I’ll let you steer this time, It’s…I just got it- it’s mine and…and…”

And he only said that he would get her a new one. When he could take her to see real snowy hilltops, feel the real wind and cold...then he’d get her a new one.

One of many lies.

[vidyagamereference]

Holy fuck yall i finally finished something

Dating Gepard hc's except theyre not all 100% positive romance tropes [sfw and not sfw]

Anyways back to our regularly scheduled headcanons

He has to learn to ask "do you want solutions or do you want to vent" during your relationship bc he is 100% in "fix the problem" mode 100% of the time

If he gets to a point where he is frustrated and upset he won't cry unless you two intentionally do something to intentionally make him cry.

To achive the above he's open to anything from BDSM to structured arguing to watching pixar. His only requirement is that you be physically with him and hold him when hes ready for it.

I personally headcanon him as being really into BDSM and a switch because he has simultaneously too much control over part of his life and the lives of others and no choice whatsoever because of his name and title and he would love to have just an hour or two where everything goes the way he wants it to wether thats because he needs you to do exactly what he demands or if its because he needs to stop having so many god damn responsibilities and just feel

Hes a good cook but i think he'd prefer to just clean up after you make him something if you cook

Not that hes unwilling to or anything it just feels more special to eat what you make him and he likes to help you out by doing the dishes and cleaning the stove and such

He will cook for you if you ask

Pls ask sometimes it makes him so happy he gets to make you feel as special as him but [leading to my next headcanon]

He sucks at spontaneity and you cannot tell me this man isnt autistic. His ass is Not reading silent/subtle hints so if you wanna be pampered you gotta be blunt and actually ask for it

None of that passive aggressive "if i ask it doesnt count" bullshit you have to be a blunt communicator to date him.

And if you start picking fights he is canonically one of the most stubborn "dig your heels in" "im not compromising" "create a cold war in my own house" kind of people EVER

You ain't winning that standoff

It takes a kind of person who will argue just as stubbornly and come back after and ask to "see where we went wrong" and take accountability for your side of what happened to date him effectively

Frustrating guy

But so so worth it

If he grows flowers successfully even once you can garentee (autocorrect has been no help how fo you spell that?!) A slightly shabby flower or three in a big ribbon and the sweetest smile!

He doesnt take off his shoes OR armor right away when he enters the house because they STINK and he has those disposable baggies that you step in to get to the shower without tracking in all the salt and muddy snow from outside. He needs to get to the soap (for him) and deodorizers (for his shoes and clothes) first

He uses 2 in 1 head n shoulders as facewash, bodywash, shampoo, and conditioner. one stop shopping. And his skin and hair are soft and flawless somehow

His hair is fluffy and cute. Its 100% genetics and 0% effort

I feel it in my bones that he has a slight pooch of belly fat. He has functional muscle not fashion muscle. I know it. Its fact. It would be So Fucking Cute no im not coping with a complete castwide lack of any curves why do you ask?

I think he sleeps like a rotisserie chicken but he needs to hug something to sleep, so he has an Emotional Support Pillow that he brings with him, on duty, at homw, he has His Pillow(tm)

He is the little spoon

He will randomly kiss you when youre alone bc he suddenly remembered "hey i can kiss my partner!!!! :D" and got excited about being your boyfriend/partner

A few rapid fire not sfw headcanons

Hes average size (6.5in) and it curves nicely upwards. The head gets cutely pink when hes hard and it has a beauty mark on the right ridge

Literally loves body worship, would be on either side happily. It gives him a nice feeling of power exchange and fluffy emotional validation feelings all at once

Also loves the pet name "good boy" for the same reason

He *is* good thank you for noticing! And he is a boy who is *also* yours! Correct twice in a row he might just swoon

Cuddle monster. 100% cuddles after are a must

Sometimes cries after. Often actually. And he would feel the need to defend it like he wasnt the worlds no.1 "most unable to express emotions" autistic person getting overwhelmed by All This Intimacy

He's got a thing about smelling his partner. Idk how i just know it. I feel it in my bones. He likes the way they smell and he wants your shirts (for jackoff material) not your nudes (tho pls send those too)

He likes public in theory but would actually die of shame if he ever tried anything where anyone could hear you ot potentially catch you. Its fully Anxiety so bad he couldnt even preform type of shit

If hes domming tonight he wants to tie you up and use you like a toy

If (or how many times) you get off is up to him not you

If hes subbing tonight he wants you to degrade him and make him cry. Then let him pleasure you with "your favorite toy" (his dick) pls he would love it

Petplay. I beleive he would make a great puppyboy and that is the Only justification i have for this

I think he likes asses. Ass man 100%

Honeymoon with Thrawn ❄️ - a headcanon

I'm back with my fluffy smutty honeymoon headcanon, you're welcome! ☺️ Thank y'all for reading!

🔞 THIS CONTAINS SMUT 🔞

Reader's gender is not mentioned.

Taglist: @bingbongooo @dance-like-russia-isnt-watching @ele-millennial-weirdo @enaelyork @jesslove23 @thrawnalani @thrawnsboots @twincesskorisoka @davesrightshoe @shoe-bag @blackddarling

You just got married to the love of your life and now have a Galactic Standard week (5 days) just for yourselves without interruptions.

When you decided on a honeymoon destination with Thrawn, you remembered his preference for a frigid climate. You don't mind the cold as long as you can dress warm enough. Thrawn was surprised when you showed him a remote tundra planet with snow, ice and beautiful nature.

That's where you are headed after your wedding celebration. You land near a cabin in the woods you've rented, half an hour away from the nearest village. It looks clean and quite modern.

For five days Thrawn doesn't have to act as a Grand Admiral. It's not easy for him. He served in the military since he was a teen and his duty has always been his top priority during all those years. You want to help him relax, show him that from now on, when you're alone, with you he can be just Thrawn, no rank required.

As soon as the door shut behind your backs Thrawn is on you, kissing you deeply.

He calls you “ch’eo cabp/en” (my wife/husband) between kisses. Tbh he's still in disbelief that he actually tied the knot. Thrawn feels there's no greater honor than being your husband. No rank in the Galaxy can compare to the look of love he sees in your eyes.

Seeing you in your wedding outfit does things to him. He doesn't want to hold back any longer, same goes for you. Instead of unpacking your luggage he picks you up and heads straight to the bedroom.

Prepare to be taken in every position you're comfortable with, until you're too overstimulated to form a coherent thought.

You got some sleep on your way to your honeymoon, so you're not that tired yet and after cleaning yourself up, you and Thrawn go on a walk around the perimeter in your winter clothing. The cool evening air of the forest feels refreshing after a good fucking.

When you return to your cabin you prepare a hot bubble bath. Thrawn joins you, adding additional warmth. You will probably never get over how his body temperature is higher than a human’s.

During your bath he whispers sweet nothings in Basic and Cheunh in your ear, kissing, nipping and sucking on the sensitive skin of your neck while at it.

I might add that Thrawn is too tall to fit into the bathtub completely.

Afterwards you eat dinner in front of the fireplace while looking back at your wedding. You're glad the event went according to plan.

Thrawn makes love to you until you're so tired you can barely keep your eyes open. He doesn't need as much sleep as you and loves watching you sleep in his arms.

Every morning during your honeymoon you wake up to the smell of breakfast and kisses all over your face. Thrawn wants to spoil you, so kisses and breakfast in bed are a must.

His crisp masculine scent lingers on your body after last night’s activities.

After finishing the breakfast he made you, you want to thank him. It doesn't matter if you're still sore from last night, he just feels too good when he's inside you, as if his cock was made just for you.

After showing your gratitude, you doze off again without really wanting to. Thrawn lets you rest though. When you wake up again you find him chopping firewood in front of your cabin, wearing only civvie pants and a black tank top with his muscular arms on display. While turned on by it, the mere sight also makes you shiver. You could never go outside without a thick winter jacket on while he doesn't seem to mind the cold.

One afternoon you visit the nearby village. He can tell you the artistic value of each souvenir you wanna buy. You also enjoy the local cuisine very much.

On another day he shows you how to survive in such a cold climate. Teaching you survival skills is actually something he takes very seriously. You realize that when you take him by surprise and push him against the nearest tree, kissing him hungrily. He pulls away, lecturing you about always staying alert in the wilderness - no distractions!

He would have taken you then and there if what he was trying to teach you wouldn't have been so important. He makes up for it once you're back in your cabin though.

Your bedsheet is ruined with cum and sweat at this point, you should probably wash it.

You have these moments of silence, moments that simply do not need words, where you sit together and do what makes you happy. Like you're reading a holonovel while Thrawn gathers all the information on the artwork on the cabin’s walls.

It feels so natural, you're just two individuals being so comfortable and at ease with each other. You hope that it will always feel like this.

After your honeymoon you both feel energized and are eager to start your life as a married couple. Marrying Thrawn has been one of the best decisions you’ve made in your life so far and you doubt it will be the last.

Those five days pass way too quickly for your liking. Thrawn’s duty calls, and you have to make arrangements to start a career, doing what you love.

The Married Life headcanon comes next! I love sharing my headcanons with y'all and that there are actually people on this hellsite who like reading them. 💙

It had started out as a gag gift from Jisung for Felix's birthday. A box laid out neatly with a pair of fluffy, baby blue handcuffs, a matching blue blindfold, and a pretty blue ball gag. Jisung had claimed that it was meant to fix whatever boring sex life that you and Felix had going on. A joke that neither of you had taken too seriously. After all, the two of you knew perfectly well that you had nothing to worry about in that department.

As such, the box had stayed tucked into the closet, neither of you bothering to test out any of the contents. You and Felix generally preferred keeping things soft. Needy, maybe, but never delving too far into more experimental things. And you both were satisfied with that. So it came as a bit of a surprise when you came home from work one day to find Felix sitting on the bed with the box from Jisung sitting open in front of him, his fingertips tracing the fur on the handcuffs gently. He jumped when you opened the door to the bedroom, scrambling to put the restraints back in the box.

"You're early," He blurted out, cheeks going pink. You tipped your head.

"Yeah, they let me off early. What are you doing?" You asked, not wanting to make him feel guilty. After all, you had never been opposed to having open conversations about what you wanted. You put your stuff down, settling on the edge of the bed. Felix looked down, avoiding your eye. "Lixie?"

You reached out, brushing a blonde lock away from his face and tipping his chin up so he looked at you. His dark eyes were wide, looking so much like a deer in the headlights and it made your heart skip a beat.

"I was thinking..." He said. You stroked his cheek gently before letting your hand fall onto his thigh. "I was talking to Hyunjinnie and he said he uses a blindfold sometimes. That it makes it feel better."

You nodded, listening as he went on, but he stopped there, his eyes darting back towards the open box.

"Do you wanna try it out? That why you were looking at them?" You asked him gently. He nodded slowly, and you smiled, leaning over to press a kiss to his cheek. "Thank you for sharing. You don't have to be shy. You can ask to try new things. Won't be upset."

He relaxed at the reassurance.

"Did you wanna try them on me, or do you wanna use them on you?" You asked, picking up the blindfold and stroking the silky fabric of it. Felix squirmed, hands folding over his lap, no doubt trying to hide the way his dick was perking up at the idea.

"On me," He said quietly, and you let out a pleased hum. That sounded nice actually, getting him all wound up was already easy enough and you could imagine how he'd turn to putty in your hands when he couldn't touch you, couldn't see you. Fuck.

You slid closer to him and pressed a soft kiss to the corner of his lips, listening to the way his breath hitched and the beginnings of a little whine caught in his throat. You ran your hand over his thigh, leaning closer to connect your lips with his.

"You seem worked up, pretty boy," You murmured into the kiss, quickly being silenced as he relaxed into it, his hand finding purchase against the back of your neck, desperately pulling you closer. You huffed a little laugh, giving in and letting his tongue slip into your mouth. He was eager, always so easy to rile up. He kissed like he would never get to again, memorizing the taste of your mouth, the way your tongue felt against his, the slow, easy move of your lips against his own. When he finally pulled away, it was just so he could pull you closer. You swung your leg over to sit in his lap, feeling the bulge of his erection through his pants and grinding against it just for the satisfaction of watching him whine.

Your lips found his jaw, then his neck, nipping and sucking at his pulse point lightly. He melted in your hands, and you stroked your fingers through his hair, coaxing him into that sweet, gentle submission that you adored so much.

"Such a good boy. Gotta promise me something before we get carried away, okay?" You tipped your head to the side, and he was quick to nod, looking at you through dark lashes. You smiled. "Okay, gonna use the traffic light system, yeah? Gotta be honest with me. If you don't like something you tell me and we stop."

He nodded and you tutted. So he quickly answered with a whispered 'yes'. You rewarded him with another kiss to his lips, then slid off his lap to stand at the side of the bed, taking the box and setting it aside.

"Take off your shirt," You told him, and you worried that he'd hurt himself with how quickly he tore the fabric over his head, tossing it aside. You nodded. "Go ahead and lay back. Make sure you're nice and comfy for me."

He did as you said, laying himself back and settling against the pillows, his lithe form stretched out for you. You took a minute, admiring the sight before picking up the cuffs. You held your hand out for his hand, and he quickly extended it to you. You clicked the restraint around one of his wrists, guiding him to stretch his arm up so you could loop them around the bar of your headboard, then you lifted his other arm to do the same. You took a step back, checking your work. His chest was already rising and falling with his heavy breathing, his cock twitching in his sweatpants and his eyes locked on you, wide and needy when you'd only just begun to have your fun.

"Feel okay?" You asked. He nodded quickly. "Pull on them a little. Too tight?"

He tested the restraints, gasping quietly when he realized that he couldn't free himself. He nodded harder this time, eager for you to get on with it. You smiled in pure amusement at how badly he wanted to carry on. So you plucked the blindfold from the box and settled yourself over his waist, carefully guiding him to lift his head so you could slide it over his eyes. Once it was settled, you stroked his cheek.

"Color?"

"Green," He answered almost instantly, and you chuckled, leaning close to his ear.

"Good boy. Such a good listener." You purred, thriving on the way he shivered underneath you. You pressed closer, laying your entire upper body against his and nipping at his earlobe. You licked down his jawline, suckling at the base of his throat and listening to the broken whimper that it got from him. You sat up, taking your hands off him completely, and his breath caught at the sudden disappearance of your touch. You watched, waiting for him to squirm, and just like you knew he would, he wiggled beneath you. "Patience, Lixie. It'll all be worth it."

He nodded slowly, nibbling on his bottom lip to ease his nervous impatience. You brought your hands down, trailing your fingertips over his abs and watching them tense, scratching your nails against his delicate skin as you moved higher up his abdomen. Your touches were airy, just enough not to tickle him, but hardly enough for him to be satisfied.

"Please, love," He huffed out, and your thumbs flicked over his nipples. His back arched towards the feeling, a startled gasp dragging out of him.

"I said be patient. Don't make me tell you again, okay sweet boy?" You quipped, voice sickeningly sweet over the vague threat. He nodded his head again, mumbling an apology. Then you were back to it, teasing his nipples with your fingertips, pinching and rolling them and listening to him keen. You were pretty sure that if you tried hard enough you could make him cum just like this, teasing the little buds and whispering filthy words in his ear just to see him make a mess in his boxers for you. The thought was tempting, but you were much more interested in testing his limits when he couldn't see you.

So you leaned down, dragging your tongue around one of his nipples before sucking on it lightly. He tipped his head back, adams apple bobbing as he swallowed harshly. You looked up, seeing the way his fists clenched, no doubt wishing he was able to tug at your hair or grip the sheets beneath him. You switched to the other side to give it the same treatment before shifting off the bed to stand up.

You watched his body tense, then relax, then slowly grow tense again in your absence. You leaned over him, popping the button on his jeans and dragging the zipper down before pulling at the waist band. He lifted his hips without even being told for you to tug the fabric down his legs and discard it. You palmed at his bulge, stroking him through the fabric of his boxers and chuckling at the moan he let out, loud and throaty and so fucking pretty.

"Please," He begged. "Please take them off, I need you to touch me."

"I am touching you, baby boy. Don't you feel it?" You asked, gripping his length through the fabric and stroking it a little more firmly. He nearly sobbed, hips bucking upwards, and you nearly swooned at his reaction. So perfect for you.

"Angel, please," He whined, hips desperately trying to buck up towards your touch. You hummed, pushing his hips back down against the bed and pulling his boxers off to leave him beautifully bare for you, his cock smearing precum onto his lower stomach and twitching once it was exposed to the cool air.

Felix writhed on the bed, doing everything but kicking his feet and crying to show you how worked up he was. You tried not to chuckle, reaching a hand down to run your fingertip up the underside of his cock. He cried out, tugging at the handcuffs hard enough to make you worry for his wrists, making a mental note to check on them when all was said and done. You continued teasing him, tracing slow, light circles around the tip of his cock, then down to brush right against his favorite spot just to hear the tormented sob he let out.

"Doing so good for me, look at you," You cooed, running your hand along the inside of his thigh and dragging your nails back down the inside. He hissed, his fists clenching around nothing as he tried desperately to ground himself against the feeling of your teasing.

"Close," He warned you. You hummed, tipping your head to the side as if he could see you.

"Already? Barely got to play with you. Such a needy little thing. So pretty and crying for me to make you cum." You leaned down, dragging your tongue along the dip of his hip bone as you stroked his cock languidly. His hips stutter and you nip at the skin, listening to his breath hitch and tremble as he tries to fight off the impending orgasm that you could see starting to ripple through him.

His abs tensed, his hips squirming away from your hand, and his moans were coming out alongside purely incoherent babbling. You couldn't tell if he was begging you to make him cum or if he was begging you not to yet, but either way you didn't ask.

"Come on, baby, I know you can do it. Gonna cum for me?" You coaxed, kissing your way over to the base of his cock and mouthing at it as you stroked him, teasing your tongue against the vein that ran along the side of it and humming in delight when you heard him whimper.

"It was hardly a moment before Felix's body jolted, arching off the bed as you stroked him to completion. You pulled back, letting his orgasm wash over him as you worked him through it. The sounds he made were nearly broken, the sweetest whines and gasps and tiny 'thank you's that made you delight in giving him pleasure.

Once his cock stopped twitching and spilling his seed onto your hand, you stood up, licking your fingers clean and moving to sit on the bed beside his chest.

"Gonna take these off now, okay?" You said. He nodded, and you carefully took the blindfold off of your boyfriend's head, letting him blink his big brown eyes open at you. You wiped at his cheeks, ensuring that he hadn't cried before leaning down to peck his lips.

"How are you feeling?" You asked gently, standing up to unlock the cuffs from around his wrist. He drops his arms, flexing his hands out. You took one of them, rubbing his hand carefully, then up to his wrist where the soft red marks were setting in. "Does it hurt?"

He shook his head.

"Feel good. So good." He murmured, and you smiled, rubbing up his arm and back down, working out the tense muscles that he had knotted up with all his fighting.

"Did you enjoy that then? Wanna keep those for another time?" You asked, moving around to give his other arm the same treatment. He hummed out a sleepy response, and you smiled, leaning down to press a kiss against his freckled cheek. "Good. Let me put this up and grab something to clean you up, okay? Then you can take a little nap until dinner."

He looked up at you with nothing but adoration in his eyes and a dopey grin on his face.

"Thank you," He murmured, watching you walk your way across the hall to the bathroom and listening to the water running. And Felix was content to lay there, basking in the warmth that still thrummed through his body and letting himself be grounded by the thought that he really was the luckiest guy in the whole wide world.

Not-So-Mini-Mini Queen Brie Infodump bc I Wanna;

Creation-wise, her name came first before her design. I heard that brie the cheese was sometimes called 'the queen of cheeses' or 'the queen's cheese', so that's why she is a Queen~ (and also bc I enjoy the royalty aesthetic)

Despite the - unintentional but not unwelcomed - comparison to the Queen of Hearts, she's probably closer to the Mad Hatter in personality, as she loves tea parties and she is a little unhinged - no screaming for anyone's beheading from her!

She does, however, take the expression of someone 'being too cute, one could eat them up' almost literally - often giving toothy grins, or licking her lips around anyone she deems cute. She's never actually eaten anyone tho, she's more likely to put cuties in her pouch than her mouth - so do not worry!!!

Queen Brie speaks in the third person, and uses the royal 'We'. She speaks forwards English, and has an extremely loud, boisterous laugh (hence the 'anime villainess laughter' caption), which is very easy to get her to do, she is easily amused. She can also speak Italian, but usually only when she is tired or very upset (both rarities for her, but possible)

Her primary DNA is Snow Leopard, so she is very soft and has big old paws (with some big old claws!!!). (She does have another animal in her, but I haven't decided that yet)

Her cape is part of her, and cannot be removed (well unless it is forcibly detached, but don't do thattt). But she can 'retract' it, so it is just the fluffy part around her neck. Her crown, ring and brooch are all accessories and can be removed (but don't TOUCH THEM)

Queen Brie has a visible pouch, but she does not have any babies. She mostly uses it just to carry around her sceptre, and anyone she deems cute (and possibly any smaller sized subordinates she might have??? idk yet)

And that's it for now, bc I am sleepy

i had something else in mind but this is way better 😭

not proff read 😪

･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+.

It was in the month of December and had a free week. So what better then going and visit the snow? And what do you do in the snow? Snowboarding. So that’s exactly what you guys did. “BILLLL” you yelled it was time to go and bill was still getting ready in his room. The rest of the group was waiting outside in front of the door with me. “IM GOING” he responded and Tom rolled his eyes. I just banged on the door again “BILL HURRY UP” this time Tom yelled. Bill finally opened the door ready to go after thirty minutes of you guys banging on his door. “Ok let’s go☺️”

Gustav was already in the driver seat just waiting so you got there scary fast… you guys get out and Gustav gets into dad mode and starts to unload stuff making everyone help making sure everyone has even and no one is missing anything and with that you all walled to the ski lift. “Ok who’s going with who” gerog asks but it so happens that Tom was already in line flirting with a girl. “We’ll…” “I wanna go with [reader]” bill chimes in with a smile “ok I’ll go with Gustav” after a while it was your turn to get up on the lift. You struggled a little as bill got on with ease. “Oh my god it’s high” you say a bit nervous “watch it brake” “DONT SAY THAT” bill laughed “Ooo it’s cold” you rubbed your hand in a atempet to warm up “yeahh” bill hummus after giggling and talking you sit in silence and lean on him “hey um [reader]” “yeah” you sit up to look at his face but is meet with a nervous look. “You good?” You asked moving to sit up and look at him better. He swiftly pressed his slightly cold lips on yours basically smushing your face into his before pulling away. He still has his hand around your face as you just sit there in shock blinking.

“I wanna go out on a date with you tomorrow”he blurted out like he didn’t just kiss you. He had a worried questioning face as you where still in his hands. you lean in fast smooshing your face against his. Your lips on his cool against your warm lips. You pull back questioning what you just did as now he’s in shock batting his eyes. You finally said something “yeah I’d do it” the lift had came to an end right when you said that. You and bill hoped right off to meet with Tom, gustav and georg. “Don’t be stu-“ “finally” tom cut of George “dam why dose it take you guys so long”gustav said before beginning to walk toward the snow bordering area.

After hours of falling on your ass and Gustav munching on snow it was getting dark and time to head back. You where all exhausted getting to your hotel room. You fell right into those white fluffy sheets and cuddling the lonly pillows thinking about going out with bill the next day.

The knocking on your door and the beeping of the hotel room door opening broke the silence. You had given bill your extra key just incase you lose yours. You where still in your bed the fluffy sheets basically eating you as you layed there. Bill walked over to your bed standing right in front of you. He lighty shook you In a temp to wake you up. “Get uppp”“Mmmph” came out if you in response “hey I said I was going to take you out on a date today so wake up” he poked you “I’m up I’m up” you rose up to your side leaning on you elbow looking at bill. He was half ready looking at your tangled hair and sleepy face. “Ok we’ll you have 20 minutes to get ready so I would start getting ready now” suddenly you weren’t so sleepy and bill was rushed out of your room.

Bill drove you two to a cute little cafe for coffee and food. You ended up sitting at a table with bill enjoying food and each other’s company with out a care in the world. ･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+..:+･:*+

WIP Writing Poll

Trying something a little different since I've got a (blissfully) clear weekend ahead of me and I didn't do WIP Wednesday in the usual sense this week:

Rules: Make a 24-hour poll with the names of your wips and then for whichever wins, write one sentence for every vote it gets (but you should also write 1 sentence for every vote each of them gets!)

Not expecting a ton of traction but I figured it's worth trying.

WIP blurbs below the cut!

Emergence:

Wholesale rewrite of Power Rangers Mystic Force. Nick still rolls into town, the core five are still recruited, Udonna still loses her Snow Staff, but all it takes are a few changes to change everything. Madison makes a move. Koragg recognizes his missing son. Everything is the same, and nothing is the same. More romance, more mysticism, more focus on the characters.

Tales of the Outer Planes:

Prequel series to Descent and TFaK. What happened between March and August 1986 that brought Eddie and Steve so close? A few big incidents, and even more smaller moments that build to something new.

A Brother is Born for Adversity:

Immediately after the end of Righteous Gemstones 3x08. Kelvin's on Cloud 9, Keefe's anxious, and they need to have a talk. Missing scene, essentially.

Magical Mysteries Never Give a Single Thing Back:

Summer 1985: Eddie Munson makes a deal with a demon, trading away true love for musical success. One hitch: that demon looks like Steve Harrington, and says he could give Eddie love in exchange for his musical talent instead. Eddie refuses. Part two is still a WIP and tracks the fallout of that deal, for better or worse.

Steddie Witches AU:

Steve Harrington is from a long line of well-respected witches in one of the world's most powerful covens, but he's never quite lived up to the name or the expectations. He assumed he'd live a life of magical grunt work, but he finally gets a mission from the circle to hunt down a hedge witch, someone operating outside the rigid magical structure of covenhood that keeps everyone safe. Steve thinks he's ready, but nothing could prepare him for Eddie Munson, rogue hedge witch.

Til I Lose My Breath:

Ronance oneshot inspired by girl in red's i wanna be your girlfriend. Robin's helping Nancy organize some things while she's home from Emerson, and Nancy's definitely sending signals, right? ...right?

Snowed In:

Oneshot about a young Udonna and Leanbow getting snowed in while away in the mountains. Fluffy, with basically no plot. Inspired by every K-drama ever where the main couple gets snowed in for the night and has to share body warmth, except one of them is an ice witch.

Mama's Biscuits & Gravy:

Kelvin used to make biscuits and gravy with his mama every Saturday morning. It's pretty much the only thing he knows how to actually make. So why can't he get it right for Keefe?

Evergreen:

Kelvin/Keefe (Gembers?) fluff about dyeing Kelvin's fauxhawk.

Beyond the Crystal Cave (There's a Tunnel Made for Lovin'):

Sequel to Descent and TFaK. The Spicy Six go to a local festival, eat crappy food, ride rides, and get stuck on the Tunnel o' Love when it breaks down. They get stuck for a WHILE. Shenanigans reasonably ensue.

No pressure tags (if you wanna do your own or just vote idk I'm winging it): @hairstevington @eriquin @serpentinegraphite @poemsingreenink @grimalkintoes @t0rchlitgarden @horsegirleddiemunson

Chapter 5: Adventure in the Country of Sand! The Monsters That Live in the Scorching Land

(episode 97)

The crew continued their journey through the desert, heading to Yuba. Soon, the heat was starting to get to them. "Burning up," Luffy panted, using a branch as a cane for support, "Sweat won't even come out."

"Quit moaning so much, Luffy," Nami reprimanded, as she waved her hand by her face, "You'll only tire yourself out." His only response was a loud moan. "Guess he's not listening."

Chopper was no better; in fact, Zoro had to pull him on a small sled, because he couldn't walk. "I can't go on. I can't take hot weather. I'm fine in cold weather, though."

"It's 'cause of all that fur," Usopp groaned, walking the same way as Luffy; with a stick. "You should take off that animal suit."

Chopper turned to him with a glare. "What was that, you jerk?!" He suddenly turned big, as Zoro was unable to pull him. "Don't make fun of reindeer!"

"Monster!" Usopp screamed in terror.

"Chopper! Don't turn big!" Zoro glared back. "Or else I won't pull ya!"

Chopper didn't notice him, as his confrontation with Usopp continued. "Who're you calling a monster, Humongo-Nose?!"

"D-don't be stupid!" Usopp shook with fear. "I-I'll have you know this nose-"

"Just turn back already!" Zoro shoved Chopper down by his head, making him small again.

"No more fighting!" Venus scolded. Ace walked with them, not saying a word.

"You don't seem to be having a hard time, Vivi-chan," Sanji noticed.

"I was born and raised here, so it doesn't bother me that much."

"But what's with all these hills?" Usopp griped. "I figured a desert would be more flat."

"This is a very old desert, so some sand dunes here are over 300 meters high."

"Th-three hundred meters?" He heaved. "No wonder it's like climbing mountains."

"It's too much," Luffy panted, "It's so hot."

"Just one drink, Luffy," Nami ordered, "Just one mouthful." However, he slurped up so much, his cheeks puffed out. "Don't drink so much!" Nami raged, as she and Usopp simultaneously punched the back of his head, making him spit it out.

"Let me have some too!" Usopp added. "That was 13 mouthfuls just now!"

"Hold on!" Sanji cut in. "You just had some! I'm next!"

A tussle broke out with all four of them. "Stop fighting!" Vivi exclaimed worriedly. "You'll only waste strength!"

"But she started it!"

"It's your fault!"

"Yeah! This is because of you!"

-

That night, the crew set up camp by some dunes, with a pair of tents and a campfire. "So hungry," Luffy groaned.

"Don't be so greedy!" Sanji scolded. "It's still raw! Don't eat that! Nami-san! Just a minute, it'll be ready soon!"

"Oh, looks pretty good!" Usopp smiled through shivering.

"Get away, you!" Sanji ordered at Luffy.

"Oh, come on!"

"Cheapskate! Let us eat!"

"Get away!"

A shivering Nami turned to Vivi in confusion. "It was so hot during the day! What's going on?!"

"With nothing to block out the temperature, the desert scorches during the day, but falls below freezing at night. The desert is fraught with unpredictable dangers."

Chopper admired the beautiful sky, as he sat by a tent with Usopp. "Oh! Look at all those stars!"

"Didn't you see stars on your winter island?"

"Winter island skies are always covered with thick snow clouds, so I've never seen this many stars before!"

Usopp shivered miserably next to him, unable to enjoy it. "I don't have the luxury of looking at stars right now."

"Cold weather doesn't bother me!"

To his chagrin, Usopp started snuggling his cheek in his fur. "That's because you wear such a warm suit!"

"Hey, you! Get away! Go hug Venus!"

"I don't wanna make her uncomfortable!"

"Just back off!"

"I can't help that you're so fluffy."

At that, an angry Chopper turned into his large form again. "Quit making fun of reindeer!"

"Monster!" Usopp screamed.

"Chopper, don't turn big," Zoro sleepily reprimanded, "We need your warmth."

"Yahoo!" Luffy jumped in, and hugged a small, delirious Chopper with Usopp. "So warm!"

"Come closer!"

"See? Warm, isn't it?"

"Yeah!" Chopper agreed.

Vivi suddenly heard chattering teeth, and turned to see the young witch shivering terribly, while sitting on the ground. "Venus-san, why don't you join them? You sound like you're freezing."

"I d-d-don't want to b-b-be a b-b-burden."

"I'm sure they won't mind," Ace assured, "Though if you'd like, I can keep you warm."

Venus' eye widened, her mind racing, as her cheeks turned red. Portgas D. Ace was offering to... snuggle with her? For the whole night? Should she say yes? What if she does something stupid? It did sound nice; curled up in his arms, her head on his chest, with his fire powers keeping her warm. However, her shyness ultimately took over, and she shook her head. "Oh, uh... th-thanks, but... th-th-that's okay. I'll just, uh... yeah, uh, th-thanks, though."

"No problem," He smiled kindly, as Vivi stifled a giggle.

At that, Venus began crawling to her crewmates, and wondered where to lay. Settling with Luffy's back, she carefully grabbed Usopp's hand, and began slowly lifting his arm up to rest underneath, hoping he wouldn't notice.

She stopped when he turned to see her. "Venus-chan? You okay?"

"Y-y-yeah. J-just a l-little chilly."

"Oh, here." Usopp raised his arm, and held her as close to himself as he could, and to Luffy's back. "This feel better?"

She nodded, not noticing a blush flaring up on his face. "It does, thanks." Her head landed on his shoulder, and she immediately drifted off into a peaceful slumber.

Usopp watched, as her back moved up and down rhythmically with her calm breathing. She was so sweet when asleep; and so darn cute.

"It must be a real surprise for you." Ace turned to Vivi at her observation. "I mean Luffy-san. I was surprised too, at first." She turned to them, as Chopper tried to push everyone away, deciding he wanted space; Venus was still asleep, so Usopp was trying to keep her undisturbed. "Maybe it's that he isn't captain-like, or that normal pirate captains are respected by their crewmates; but this afternoon, a simple drink of water caused that big fight. But... but you know..." The boys finally fell asleep, with Venus cozy under Usopp's arm, and her head between his and Luffy's. "The longer I've been with them, the more I've come to understand."

Ace smiled at her observation. "That's how Luffy does things."

"Eh?"

By now, Venus and Usopp's temples were rested against each other over her hood. "He hasn't changed a bit since he was a kid. Despite how he seems, people always gather around him. Even though he's my little brother, he has a mysterious charm to him."

"Oh, you already knew."

"He and I do go way back. But thanks." He became curious at her intentions, as one of Chopper's front hooves was in Luffy's open mouth. Venus' nose was less than an inch away from Usopp's.

"Eh?"

"You were worried that I was concerned, right?"

"Yes. But it looks like I didn't need to worry after all." They began stargazing without a word.

-

"Whoa! I found a shrimp!" Luffy announced early the next morning.

"So this is a shrimp?!" Chopper asked excitedly. "Wow!"

After laying a still sleeping Venus gently on the ground, using his backpack as a pillow for her, Usopp approached them with skepticism. "Shrimp don't live in the desert!"

"See?!" Luffy held up his discovery.

"Oh, you're right! Is it a "desert shrimp"?"

"It looks yummy!"

"Hey, now! Are they edible?!" Usopp asked eagerly.

"Probably! Crawfish are edible, after all!"

"I've never seen a real shrimp before!" Chopper exclaimed.

Vivi stepped out of her tent, and stretched her arms; she panicked at what he was holding up. "Stop, Luffy-san! Throw that away!"

"No! That'd be a waste!"

"That's a scorpion! It's small, but it's very poisonous! You'll die if it stings you!"

"Oh, it's not edible?" Luffy frowned calmly in disappointment, as Usopp and Chopper tensed up. "How boring. You can have it."

Usopp jumped back when he held up the scorpion to him. "Don't give it to me!"

"Then I'll throw it away." Luffy tossed it behind his back.

"I'm sorry," Vivi said, "I should've mentioned it earlier."

"That's for sure!" Usopp agreed.

They turned to Chopper when he appeared to be on alert. "What is it, Chopper?" Luffy looked down at him.

He jumped up on a rock for a better view. "Something's... coming."

"Something? What?" Usopp asked cautiously, as they began hearing the sound of whistling.

Ace emerged from the other tent, and turned to where the sound was coming from with a smirk. "Oh? Is the wind picking up?"

Vivi watched the horizon carefully; it seemed like there was a group of tornadoes. She then gasped in horror. "Everyone! Hide behind the rocks!"

"What?" Luffy blinked obliviously.

"A storm! A sandstorm is coming!"

"Oh?" Ace watched calmly.

"Whoa!" Luffy exclaimed, as the ground began shaking. "Cool!"

"Venus-chan!!" Usopp grabbed her from in front of the tent, and yanked her behind the rocks with him, Luffy, and Chopper. He had also grabbed Burton's carrier in his haste.

"Again?! Deserts are nothing but storms!" Luffy exclaimed.

"I forgot to mention it, but sandstorms are one of the desert's dangers!"

Usopp cried out in terror, hold Venus tightly, as she slept like a corpse through the commotion. "Mention these things sooner!"

-

When daytime came, the crew's campsite was rendered to a sandy mess. Ace rose from being submerged, and ran to Vivi in concern. "What the hell was that?!" Zoro started to wake up, while Chopper did as well..

"Can't people get some rest?!" Sanji griped from laying next to Nami.

Usopp rose up from the sand, then pulled Venus up close by, as Luffy sat up. Venus yawned, and groggily blinked her eye open. "What happened?"

After recovering, they were on their way. "Hey! Sanji! Let's have a lunch!" Luffy decided. "A Pirate Boxed Lunch!"

"Not yet. Not until Vivi-chan says so."

"Come on, Vivi!" Luffy grinned towards her with hope. "Let's eat! I'm out of strength!"

"But we're only one-tenth of the way to Yuba, Luffy-san."

"You're so dumb! Haven't you heard of this proverb?: "If you're hungry, eat"!"

"You liar!" Usopp puffed in exhaustion, as he walked with a stick. "Quit making stuff up!"

"All right," Vivi agreed with the captain, "Then what do you say we take a break at the next rocks we find?"

"Alright! Rocks!" He cheered, and stopped in front of the crew. "Guys! Let's hurry to the next rocks! Whoever wins rock-paper-scissors has to carry everyone's stuff!"

"Quit deciding things!" Usopp scolded.

"Shouldn't the loser carry the stuff?" Sanji pointed out.

Luffy held his fist in the air. "Alright, here goes! Rock, paper, scissors!"

"Hold up now!" Vivi tried to stop him, but the game commenced anyway.

"Hey! You went after!" Zoro exclaimed.

"Woohoo! I win!" Luffy cheered.

"Idiot," Nami griped.

As agreed on, they loaded their stuff on the sled for Luffy to pull along. "H-heavy," He panted, "So heavy. And hot. I won rock-paper-scissors, so why me?"

"It's because you won," Sanji replied, "Now shut up, and haul."

"Don't drop it now!" Nami added, and he groaned loudly in response.

Vivi turned to Venus, who was still holding her small pet carrier. "Venus-san, why don't you put Burton with our stuff?"

"I... I'm more comfortable carrying him myself," She replied warily, "I can't risk him falling over."

Using his goggles, Usopp looked over the horizon, and saw what Luffy was anticipating. "Rocks spotted a small ways ahead!"

"For real?!" He exclaimed happily, before barreling past everyone. "Break time! Food!" He sped off out of sight, leaving a cloud of sand behind.

"Whoa! He's fast!" Usopp gawked.

Up ahead, Luffy quickly slowed to a foot-dragging walk, and was relieved when he was under the rocks spotted. "Shade!" He flopped down in exhaustion. "Feels so good!" Out of nowhere, the sound of birds in distress rang through the area; Luffy sat up in curiosity, and went to investigate, leaving the crew's luggage. After turning a corner, he gaped in surprise; before him was a flock of strange birds with swirled cowlicks laying in the sand, as if they were hurt. He quickly approached the closest one, and dropped to his knees, picking it up in concern. "Hey! Say something! I'll go get you a doctor!" He set it down, and ran back where he came, still leaving everything behind. "Bad news!"

"Huh? He's coming back!" Usopp pointed out.

"There's a lot of hurt birds that can't move! Chopper!"

"Right!" He immediately sat up from his personal sled, and ran up to him in determination.

"Alright! Let's go, Chopper!"

"Yeah!"

"We gotta help the birds!"

"Birds?!" Vivi's eyes widened. Crap! "Wait, Luffy-san! Don't tell me these birds are-!"

He stopped running, and turned back. "Eh?"

-

When they arrived on the scene, Luffy screamed in terror; the sled was empty! "All our stuff is gone!" Zoro exclaimed.

"We've been had," Nami lamented.

"It's the truth!" He insisted. "There really were dying birds here!"

"I'm sorry. I should've mentioned it earlier. Warusagi birds are "desert bandits" that trick travelers, and steal their belongings."

"What?!" Luffy gaped.

"Birds playing dead?!" Usopp fussed. "That's dishonest!"

"Yes, that's how they are," Vivi choked up with guilt.

"They tricked me?!"

"Luffy!" Sanji grabbed him by the collar. "Is that all you can say for yourself?! There were three days of provisions in there! And you just had to let some damn birds steal everyone's stuff smack in the middle of this desert?! How're we supposed to cross the desert without food, or water now?!"

"It's not my fault. They tricked me."

Sanji leaned close to his face in fury. "Is your brain less than a bird's?!"

"Say what?!" Luffy glared in offense.

"Stop it, you two!" Zoro ordered.

He went to intervene when they kept it up, but Ace's hand on his shoulder stopped him. "There's no use. At times like this, it's best to let them have it out!"

Zoro pulled his headwear back with a smirk. "Yeah, huh?" He then sat on a rock close by. "Let's take a short break. This heat is what has them fuming. I'm sure we'll manage, food-wise. It's nothing that'll kill us. Let's just put it out of our minds."

"Yeah," Usopp agreed tiredly, "Just thinking makes me thirstier."

Luffy and Sanji were in their fight, then they spotted something up ahead: Warusagi birds, drinking their water, and carrying their bags! Luffy began running like mad after them. "Give us our stuff back!"

"Luffy-san!" Vivi called after him. "Don't chase them!"

"That idiot," Sanji griped.

"Hey, you!" Nami called after. "Will you be able to come back?!"

"Come back, Luffy!" Usopp shouted, but it was no use.

He just kept going. "Stop! You can't get away from me!" His pace started slowing, due to the heat, as the birds started flying. "Get back here!" They flew higher and higher, until he couldn't reach them. "Get back here!" He was startled when all of a sudden, giant plants with sharp teeth shot out of the sand! "What are these?!" He leaped away from their jaws, but one caught him, ignoring his kicks and punches, before retreating back into the ground. After a few seconds, its severed head resurfaced, along with him. "What is this thing? A mystery desert plant? Neat!" He beamed.

He turned around at a strange groaning, and watched in confusion; a furry-saddled camel was keeping itself from getting eaten by another plant! "What are you doing?" He then started laughing, as it struggled. "That's funny!" The camel then glared at him. "Huh? You want me to help you?" It nodded in confirmation. "Gum-Gum... Pistol!" He leaped up, and his punch popped the plant, so the camel ran up to him. "Good thing you didn't get eaten!" He laughed, before getting angry again. "Those birds got away, while I was beating these guys up! The desert sure is full of strange creatures!" He then turned back to the animal he rescued. "Hey, camel. What're you doing out here all by yourself?" It turned away, now on alert. "What's that?" He watched in the same direction, and a hole sunk in the dune. "Did you find something?" After a moment of nothing, the ground started rumbling, and before them, something huge started emerging. "What the-?!"

-

Usopp watched the horizon, as he attempted to fan his face. "What's taking Luffy so long?!"

"Yeah," Chopper agreed, as he laid face-up on the ground, "Do you think he got lost?"

"He has a horrible sense of direction, but always has to run off!" Nami complained.

"And there are so many desert dangers he doesn't know about," Vivi added.

"Y'know, isn't he hungry from not eating anything?" Sanji pointed out.

Everyone was silent, before Zoro stood up. "He's such a lost cause," He griped.

"You can say that again," Sanji agreed, following suit.

"Sorry," Ace gained their attention, "For my little brother's ineptness. I apologize for the trouble."

Suddenly, Usopp was on alert at the sound of familiar crying. "Venus-chan!" She was sitting on a rock, with her face in her hands; he frantically ran over, and knelt down in front of her in concern. "What's wrong?!"

"M-m-my spell book was in my backpack!" She sobbed. "My first one ever, and it's gone!" Usopp pulled her into a comforting hug, letting her cry in his shoulder.

"Spell book?" Ace quirked a brow in confusion.

"She's a witch from a Devil Fruit," Nami explained.

"Ah."

"Don't you already know the spells from it?" Zoro asked.

"Well, p-pretty much yes, but... it's special to me. It's the first spell book I've ever had; Mr. Rauru got it for me when I was first starting out."

"That damn idiot!" The chef seethed. "How dare he make Venus-chan cry! Let's go find him, so I can tear him apart!"

As he comforted her, Usopp saw Zoro and Sanji heading out where the captain ran off. "Good luck finding him!"

"Yeah."

He then turned back to Venus. "A-at least Burton's still here," He tried to cheer her up.

"Yeah," She sniffled, "I'm glad I held his carrier myself. Those nasty birds would've eaten him for sure." When he held it up for her, she smiled, and stuck her finger inside for him to prod at affectionately. "Thank goodness you're safe."

Just then, Chopper quickly sat up at some rumbling. "What's that?!"

Everyone watched the horizon, as Usopp protectively kept Venus close, as did she with the carrier. "What's this rumbling?!" Using his goggles, while she held onto his waist, he looked ahead at the huge sand clouds, as they heard a familiar laugh. "Another sandstorm?! No, wait! That's-!" He looked on in shock, as Luffy was on a camel, running towards them. "Luffy?!"

"No... it couldn't be!" Vivi exclaimed.

"Why is he on a camel?!" Nami questioned.

"So?! What's that chasing him?!" Sanji asked frantically.

Zoro tried to look, but the sand behind them was too thick. "I can't really see! But it seems more like something's in the sand!"

Behind them, a giant, purple lizard emerged! "It's huge!" Usopp screamed.

"A Sandora Dragon!" Vivi shouted in shock.

"A what now?!" He exclaimed.

"They're the largest of the reptiles living in the desert, and they wait under the sand for their prey! They have sharp claws and fangs, but they hardly ever use them! The reason being that they tend to swallow their prey whole, because they're so large!"

Ace watched calmly from the shade. "He really does have a gift for attracting trouble."

"Setting aside the camel for a moment..." Sanji started.

"What star was he born under to be able to attract trouble like this?!" Zoro finished, before they went into action.

"Hey! Camel! Stop!" Luffy commanded.

"Luffy! Is it too much for you?!" Zoro asked frantically.

"We'll lend a hand!" Sanji added.

"Yeah! I brought some meat! Here goes, lizard! Gum-Gum..."

"Tatsu..."

"Épaule..."

"Whip!"

"Maki!"

"Shoot!"

All three attacked at once, everyone gaping in shock, as the giant lizard collapsed, now dead. "Y-you didn't have to go that far," Usopp cried with sympathy, as a wide-eyed Venus stared on.

"When they're fighting, you almost pity the monsters," Nami remarked. Just then behind them, another lizard popped up! "There's more?!"

"I forgot to mention it, but but Sandora Dragons hunt in pairs!"

"Mention these things!" Usopp, Venus, Nami, and Chopper reprimanded Vivi simultaneously.

Ace turned, and saw the predator before him, barely reacting. "Ace!" Nami exclaimed.

"Look out!" Vivi shouted.

He calmly stood to his feet. "What a nuisance. You wanna play?" It roared at him in response. "Oh, okay. If that's what you want." At that, he leaped into its mouth; when trapped inside, he released some flames, effectively cooking it from the inside, before emerging safely.

Everyone stared in awe, as it collapsed behind him, charred and smoking. "Wow, Ace!" Venus began swooning. "That was amazing!"

"Thanks!" He beamed.

Usopp rolled up his sleeve, and flexed his arm. He frowned in disappointment, as he poked at his bicep; too spindly. Damn.

Before long, using a rock as a stove, Sanji was cooking Sandora meat for everyone. "Check it out! These rocks are natural frying pans!"

"So, what's with the camel?" Zoro asked Luffy.

"I dunno," He replied through a mouthful of meat, "It was getting eaten by a mystery plant when I was chasing the birds."

"It doesn't seem to be a wild camel," Nami remarked.

"No," Vivi added, "It even has a saddle."

Chopper walked over in interest, thinking he looked familiar, and the camel perked up in recognition. "I knew it!" He smiled brightly.

-

The previous day...

After Sanji ditched him to approach dancer girls, Chopper started looking for some shade in Nanohana. 'This is bad,' He thought, 'I'm starting to have symptoms of heat stroke.' His vision was turning blurry. 'I need to go somewhere where it's cool.' Next to a building was a trailer; and the door was open. He sneaked inside, and laid on the wooden floor, feeling relaxed with a wide smile. 'Ah! That feels nice! I think I'll take a nap, until Sanji comes back. Is that okay? Is it? I guess it is. '

Just after he fell asleep, the door was shut behind him. "Is it closed?" The driver asked his co-worker.

"Yeah. Let's go."

"We don't want anyone finding it." Once he was onboard, the stagecoach started moving.

With Chopper inside.

When he woke up, he was alarmed at the rumbling movements, and the closed door. "Huh?! Where am I?!" He peeked out through the curtain, and saw a pair of mysterious men driving the coach; he quickly retreated when one of them looked his way, but thankfully, he didn't seem to see him. He turned small again, as he started to panic. 'Huh? Huh? Who're they? Where am I?' His eyes widened when a cabinet opened from a bump, and rifles fell out in front of him. "Rifles!" He accidentally shouted. When the same man peered in, he hid between two crates.

"What's wrong?"

"Thought I heard a voice. It's nothing."

When the curtain was closed, he began backing to the doors. 'I dunno what's going on, but they seem dangerous! I should probably get out of here quick!' He crashed into the doors when the coach suddenly stopped. "Oww!"

"Good work. That took a while."

"Yeah. The weapon store guy really raised his prices, that greedy bastard."

"It can't be helped. They're in huge trouble if they get found out too."

"Where's Koza?"

"Inside."

"We got a bit of food too. It's in the back."

"Got it."

The camel that pulled the coach yawned in boredom, watching the man approach the trailer. The man was surprised at what he saw; a reindeer laying on the floor, wearing shorts, a hat, and a backpack. "What is this?" Chopper tried to stay still. "They went, and bought a whole deer?"

As they talked to "Koza", Chopper managed to slip away, before another man looked in the trailer. "Hey! Wasn't there deer meat here?"

"Huh? Are you sure someone didn't haul it out already?"

"C'mon, do better checks, will ya?" He griped, before the camel nudged his back. "What?!" The camel hung its tongue out in parchment. "Water? There's some in that trough! Drink that!" It smiled in satisfaction, as it walked off with a green tarp over its back. "Hey! Let's get the rest out of here! Gimme a hand!"

"Right!"

Chopper stayed still under the tarp, as the camel strolled through the town casually, then stopped in the desert. Chopper peeked out cautiously, as the camel stared. "A-am I safe now?" It nodded in confirmation. "Whew! Thank you! But why did you help me?" He listened, changing back to small form, as it responded. ""I got no reason. I'm cool, ain't I?"" Chopper laughed nervously. "You're so strange!" He then jumped down, and waved in farewell, as it walked off to another town. "Thank you so much! He's a little strange, but he's a nice guy! I feel like I'm going to see him again! Still, who were those people? Oh well. Now which way is Nanohana?" He sniffed the air, before grimacing in disgust. Perfume. "This way." He headed in that direction. Hopefully Sanji has calmed down by the time he finds him.

-

He listened to it grunt. "Oh! Good for you!"

Luffy walked over, still eating. "Huh? You know each other?"

"Yeah! He gave me a ride when I escaped from Katorea!"

Usopp sat up from laying on the ground. "That's great! We can ride it?! That'll make things easier!"

"Yeah, that'll be a real help!" Sanji agreed. "Looks like it could carry two or three people!"

"Camels do go hand-in-hand with deserts!" Zoro added.

Luffy prepared to jump up. "Then I'll be the first one!" To his confusion, it bit his head to keep him down. "What was that for?!"

""I am a freedom-loving, hard-boiled, compassionate camel!"" Chopper translated. ""Thanks for helping me out of that pinch. I can give you a lift, but no men allowed!""

Usopp, Luffy, and Sanji started beating the camel in anger. "This guy's a punk!" Luffy griped.

"Yeah! You let Chopper ride you!" Usopp added.

""I'm manly!"" He translated, as it flashed a confident grin.

The beating continued as soon as it stopped. "Quit being stupid!" Luffy exclaimed.

"Why you-!"

Nami managed to stop them, and started comforting him. "I'm so sorry! My crewmates are so ill-bred!" She petted its head, to its delight, as it knelt down. "You're a good boy! What should we call you?"

"Idiot!" Luffy voted.

"Moron!" Sanji added.

"Doofus!" Usopp voted.

""Lashes", it is then!" Nami decided, already on the saddle.

"Uhh, that's the weirdest one of all," Zoro remarked.

"Okay! Get on Venus, Vivi!"

"No, I can still walk!" The princess kindly declined.

"Just get on," Nami insisted, as he knelt back down, and Vivi complied. "Venus! Hop to it!"

"Yeah, whatever," She grumbled somberly, finishing her meat; she couldn't help but smile when Lashes nudged her face, her tears being wiped away. "Thanks." She climbed on between Nami and Vivi with Burton's carrier on hand.

"Hey you, what's the big idea?!" Usopp raged in jealousy.

"Pervy camel! Pervy camel!" The boys griped, aside from Ace, who stayed quiet, as Lashes stood back up with the three girls.

Nami pulled her white hood back over her head. "Now we should make a little better time!" She looked back at Vivi, who was behind Venus. "We need to get to Yuba as fast as we can to talk to the rebel army!" She whipped the reins. "Giddyup, Lashes!"

At her command, he ran off, leaving the boys behind. "Hold on!"

"Wait, the boys!" Venus exclaimed, but was unnoticed, as she held the carrier tightly.

"Hurry, guys!" Nami ordered. "If you get separated, you'll never leave the desert alive!"

"Quit being stupid!" Usopp shouted angrily.

"I like this side of Nami-san too!" Sanji gushed.

"After them! Hurry!" Zoro urged.

"That pervy camel has Venus-chan!" Usopp added.

"He has Nami-san, and Vivi-chan too!" Sanji raged.

"Get on, Chopper!" Zoro ordered.

"Yeah!"

"Wait for us!" Once Chopper was on the sled, they began a mad sprint in Lashes' direction.

🍃Thoughts

So i was outside getting high and enjoying the 20,000 bats flying over my house (not joking) and i decided to go watch a nature documentary series and these thoughts are the result.
