#i wasnt even able to watch/listen to what i wanted as i walked back.

[reblog-house]

Man, changes in plans really do affect me, don't they

[wassupmygays]

every time i listen to Runs in The Family (Reprise), i think about how Scared sodapop must be

"maybe i should finally just walk on out" darry screams, "you'd be one less thing for me to worry about!"

and suddenly soda is thinking about how much darry does for them. how much he works, how much he cleans, how much he cooks, how much money he brings in. and soda knows he cannot do that. he cant do what darry does, and if hes gone... what would happen to him and ponyboy?

"leave you boys, im heading back to school! im tired of lifting you up, tired of playing the fool"

darry cant leave. he cant. he wouldnt. soda knows this. but what if hes wrong? its looking more and more like he wont be able to de-escalate this argument, and what would happen then? he always hopes and prays that the next argument would be the last, but they always just keep growing and growing. would this be darry's final straw if soda couldnt hold them together?

"Start a new life in a different town, there aint no tellin' where i'd go without you draggin me down"

soda knows hes right. he knows that darry couldve gotten out and made a life for himself if he didnt have to devote every waking hour to making sure him and pony didnt get sent away. and god if soda didnt feel a shit ton of guilt for that every day.

"picture life without ole' Darry around!"

god soda doesnt ever want to imagine that. even if darry wasnt the one holding their family together, he wouldnt ever want to picture a life without his big brother. he loves him too much. he needs him. even before their parents died he needed his big brother there. hes never known a life without darry and he never wants to.

but he also can't sit and dwell with this fear because hes gotta de-escalate everything. and darry is yelling, and now ponyboy is yelling, and poor johnny is watching all of this and now theyre screaming. and ponyboy is saying maybe Darry should just leave and oh my god why cant they just stop fighting

and then suddenly darry has slapped ponyboy and soda watches him and johnny sprint out the front door. he doesnt even know how any of it happened. and god he prays that darry wont leave now.

he cant lose both of them

Bonding memories.

Based off this art piece! Follow my mootie their work is so amazing! Also Aurelia is the name I've given Auron's mom.

Humming to the lyrics of Ghost of you, Auron was putting on his makeup. Getting more frustrated as his eye pencil wasnt working. It also didnt help his hair wasn't fully done yet.

"You look like a raccoon." A small voice was heard, making the older boy groan. Not even looking away from his vanity mirror, Auron heard Faust enter his room.

"Go away!" Snapping back, the red head focused on finishing his eye makeup. Picking up a hand mirror to get a closer look.

"No. I don't need to listen to you." Sticking his tongue out Faust sat on Auron's floor. Watching as his step brother grabbed some mascara he gotten from Trish.

"Ugh, your so fucking annoying." Muttering, Auron blinked as he put the mascara on. Placing a hand mirror down and looked at his bigger mirror.

The blonde young boy gasped offended, glaring at Auron. But paused as he saw how free the red head looked. Not needing to fully be expected to follow everything.

"...If I had makeup I'd actually wear it right." Chiding Faust curled his legs into himself. Suddenly feeling so sad about not being able to express himself.

Hearing the sudden shift in his younger step brothers tone, Auron looked at Faust. Brows furrowed as he looked over the blonde boy.

"Just do whatever, who gives a shit." Shrugging, Auron turned to his mirrors. Putting the finishing touches as the red head placed his glasses on.

"Because father says it's for girls." Parroting what that old fuck always says, Faust scoffed. Annoyed that this emo forgot about how his father is like. This made Auron paused and looked at Faust again.

The red head felt bad, knowing that he was raised with a parent that was more understanding. But sadly since Auron was still finding himself he tried connecting with Faust. In his own special way since hed rather die then be up front with it.

"God. Why are you so lame?" Rolling his eyes, Auron watched as Faust frowned more. But sighing dramatically, the red head turned back taking makeup out again.

"Wanna play with my makeup?" Asking Auron smiled to himself as he saw from over his shoulder how Faust lit up. Opening expensive makeup pallets and brushes the red head turned and gave a smirk.

The blonde boy before him looked like a kid in a candy shop. Looking at the collection that Auron made over the few years. And the questions began as he picked up random makeup things.

The older boy snorted as Faust tried understanding. So, a small lecture began as Aurom began showing the basics. Giggling as Faust looked in the mirror looking like a small raccoon.

"Guess we're both raccoon's huh?" Joking, Auron snorted as Faust threw a nasty glare.

"Don't make me look like you! I want glitter!" Blabbering Faust then grabbed ome of the magazines Aurom had. Showing a glam full face of makeup. "Like this!"

Blinking Auron nodding, tucking this information away. This will be good to use once it was Faust's birthday. So grabbing makeup wipes, the red head got to work.

As both were chatting and enjoying their time together. They didn't know there was two women watching them. Small quiet shutters rang out as Aurelia and Trish giggled watching the two bond.

Blinking again, Faust turned his head and realized he spaced out. Being in the old penthouse always did that to him. Grabbing the old makeup pallets that were Auron's just to keep the memories alive.

The new freshly bluenette sighed, wondering when he changed. Faust misses his older brother, the boy he was. Now that sweet red head is gone and he turned cold.

Wiping a tear Faust huffed and walked out, not wanting to cry in a old penthouse. Anger replaced the nostalgia he felt, Auron shouldn't have changed. Faust loved the boy he was and hated the man he became.

Ive tried to get my feelings about Moominvalley s4 into words, but im having a really hard time even accepting them. But ill try!

So here's my thoughts in Moominvalley s4.

Im 23 now and i remember being 12 - 15 figuring out my identity, and the only "representation" in mrdia being basically either "Bury your gays" trope or just queerbaiting. I grew up on a base level thinking i wasnt allowed to exist, and if i still dared to, tragedy would be my only birth right.

I believed i wasnt allowed to live a happy, soft AND queer life, cause no media i had seen had ever showed me that, that was a possibility.

Both the 90's Moomin series and Moominvalley 2019 are my comfort shows. I fall asleep to them at night, i listen to them like a podcast while im working or outside, they even calm my panic attacks. I collect cups, plushies, i collect the Comics and even some of the books.

I have 3 Moomin tattoos. This universe means a damn lot to me, and to thousands of ppl world wide.

As a queer person i find incredible comfort in Tove Janssons work, and you have to be a fool to be unable to see the way Snufkin and Moomintroll are written together.

I have been following this show since early 2020 and have watched interview to interview, ive listened to the podcast more times than i can count, and they knew what they were doing.

From the beginning of the show they deliberately wrote Snufkin and Moomin to be something more, they even confess In a BTS that their Moomin might like Snufkin more than Snorkmaiden. Even the podcast talked about it!! We are not crazy!!!

I feel incredibly gaslit by the entire situation, and suddenly im 14 again being told im reading too much into it.

Idk what happened inbetween S3 and 4, but it felt like all the love and care that came from the show, just disappeared?

Ignoring Snufmin for a second, every episode this season felt like a filler. It has no plot, followed up on nothing from the last seasons, and had an extreme amount of loose ends.

The former seasons, especially s1 and 2 has such amazing writting, character development and just a feeling of patience and of softness, i would watch it and think everything would be okay... But this season felt stripped of every inch of the care Tove Jansson put into her universe.

I want to talk a little about Moomintroll.

One of Moomins character Arcs is his want to grow up, its his need to be taken seriously and his need for independence and adventure. His need to step out of his dads shadow, and to be his own moomin! The character development he had built up through out the seasons, completely and utterly disappeared. There is no trace of anything in s4.

He is right back to where he started in s1, not being able to stand up for himself and say no, not having the confidence to go on adventures and right back to idealizing his dad. If anything this entire season felt like a prequal! Cause at least s1 Moomintroll wanted to learn, and was activily trying to change.

Moomintroll truly felt like a side character this season, i dont even think he has any important moments. Unless you count Comet in Moominvalley (which i dont), where all his independence has disappeared. Moominpapa literally has to push him out. He made one decision that eps, which was to float down the river instead of walking, which ended up being the wrong and slower way.

The regression Moomintroll went threw this season is heartbreaking, and thats not my Moomin.

Focusing for a bit on Snufkin, this season felt like a slap to the face.

They know that Snufkin is one of their most popular characters right? If not the most popular. If anything he is at least in the top 3, not only in Moominvalley but in the rest of the moominverse.

So why did this season feel like Snufkin erasure?

He was barely in it, and when he was all of that glow that normally radiats from him was all gone. He felt like the husk of a character.

This version of Snufkin was on of my favs, cause you could actually see his flaws and disagree with his actions. He had room to grow, and he did, he truly did.

He learned from Moomin just like Moomin learned from him. Their characters Arcs co align witch each other, their relationship and interactions are the pillars of the entire show. Snufkin and Moomintroll are what make the show proceed.

Finding the 2019 show for the first time as an 18 year old gave me confirmation and trust, that i was allowed to live a soft and slow life as a queer person. If Moomintroll and Snufkin could have that kind of beautiful queer slow burn romance, then i had a chance to as well.

They knew that a big part of their viewers are queer, and they knew how popular Snufmin was. They knew what kind of ppl they attracted, or they wouldnt have made it like that.

All the soft moments, the longing, the zoom in on eye contact, the zoom in on hand holding. They said trust us, they said be patient, and then they threw everything they had been building up out and set fire to it.

We got Queerbaited, and i truly havnt felt this feeling for a while. We got actual queer shows now, ofc they all end up being cancelled! But they exist!

This show felt like it was crafted with so much love and care, that i completely let my guard down. The entire queer Moomin community did a 5 year long trustfall, just to hit the floor the last second.

Season 4 of Moominvalley felt empty. It felt lost of all care and love. The first 3 seasons felt handcrafted by warm hands, season 4 felt machine made. Easy to digest, with no real soul.

Season 4 of Moominvalley feels souless.

I have chosen to live in a world where Comet in Moominvalley is a prequal to s4 and that s4 is a prequal to s1. The true last season was S3 and Moominvalley ended with Snufkin and Moomin walking arm in arm. Thats the only way i can Rationalize everything.

I have so much more to say, but ill stop here for now. Hope all of you are doing okay<3

Reader my au x ASL trio

A headcanon that I thought of.

An old someone work inspired me. Important info: I have an entire series about my Y/N stories but if you only want to read this then here is a small sum it up. Y/N ate a devil fruit which allows her to control ink in various ways but as she is young she isn’t able to control, as well is the power of the fruit a spirit lives inside it. She was used because of her devil fruit. TW: Self-hate, injuries, Female Y/N, fighting, Y/N x Ace.

You noticed Ace had been angry for a couple of days you didn't know why he seemed if something pissed him he'll just burst. Sabo told you he was having a rough week by the looks of it.

You sat next to Sabo as you watched Luffy and Ace arguing about a random thing again. You sighed as you looked at Sabo.

"What is it now?" You asked.

"They were training with each other and Ace was saying his moves sucked." Sabo replied.

You look at the two fighting boys in front of you until Luffy called you.

"Hey Y/N I want to prove a special move I made but it won't work on Ace so can you do it instead."

You nodded as you stood up and went where Luffy was as you grabbed your pipe that you always had on your side even if it wasn't necessary. You looked at Luffy.

"Okay come and hit me" Luffy said.

You raised an eyebrow. Why would you need to hit him? You never hit any of them at all of course you hit other people them was a no. You were too afraid that ....might happen.

"Why, do I need to hit you, I dont want to hurt you?" You looked as you tilted your head.

"You won't this move in unbeatable" Luffy said as he got into a stance. But you shaked your head as you looked at him.

"Still I might hurt you...but I'll do it just not a very strong point"

"Ok! Let's go!"

Before you could start your attack Ace sits up and his face is darken as you look at him.

"You'll never get strong if you keep holding yourself back, Y/n. I always tell you that" he said, holding his pipe. "Just because we are your friends you don't have to hesitate".

You nodded. "Yes bu-" Ace cuts you off.

"No buts, now come on try and attack me and I'll show you how it's done."

You shake your head "I'm not going to hit you." You reply back.

"Then I'll start it" Ace says as he dashes towards you and raises his pipe.

You block his attack with your pipe as you get thrown back a little.

"That's all you can do?" he asked with a smirk and you pursed your lips, then attacked him again.

You guys keep attacking you blocking his attack while he attacks you. You dodge one of his attack by a hair as you try and stop his barging attacks.

Luffy and Sabo looked at you intensely and while the former looked at you two with a proud smile, the latter felt a strange sensation inside himself, as if something was wrong.

You both still keep attacking as you try blocking his attacks as you didn't want to hit him. He was able to let you drop your pipe when he hit the weapon out your hand as he went behind and kicked your knees as you fell to the ground.

"That hurt you know!" You say as you turn around to look at him as you stood up.

As dashed at you as you blocked his attack.

"Ace! Listen already!" You shout as he keeps attacking you but you not attacking him.

If Ace wanted to encourage you to be stronger... Well, at that moment he was NOT succeeding at all.

The more you both fought the more you felt pain course through your body which wasnt a good sign..it ment that your devil fruit will act randomly.

You start to slow down to let your abilities stay put as you didn't want it to be shown. You vision began to blur as you start to become more weak and unstable.

"You should speed up Y/N the enemy won't hold back!" Ace says.

Sabo walks over to Ace to reason with him a bit.

"Hey Ace how about we sit down and you can fight me next?" Sabo tries to compermise.

"No there is no breaks in battle! The enemy might use it as an advantage!" Ace shouts as he hits you again as you fall back blocking his forced attack with your pipe.

You look back up as pipe is in your face. He keeps attacking you again as you try and dodge his attack.

The more you continued to fight, the more Sabo realized that he wasn't wrong about the strange feeling of before. Sabo had noticed how the more time passed, the more you were getting tired and it was becoming more and more difficult to keep up with Ace. He didn't understand Ace's sudden determination to keep you fighting and he didn't understand why he was almost more violent than usual at that moment.

Ace hits your knees with his pipe as you fall to the ground. As you look up you see Ace running towards you probably ready to start another group of attacks. Your body couldn't moves as images flashed in your mind. The screaming, the pain, the violence.

Ace kept coming at you but when he got close enough your body was in a trance already as in your head Ace was them.

"Ace, get out the way!" You shouted as all three boys raised an eyebrow Ace still running.

You raised your hand as ink flows out quickly another huge ink ball shielding you and the ink hand going straight at Ace. The ink spreads into a bigger piece of ink. Ace barely dodges it getting a cut on his head from it. You curl up inside the shielding ink ball covering your ears as you sniffle.

The ink hand goes to attack Ace and Sabo and Luffy go to help him out as more more attacks are launched at them.

You find it hard to breathe as you rock yourself trying to calm down. The ink ball around you gets bigger and bigger as you try to calm down and you can here Luffy, Sabo and Ace shouting from outside.

You see a scary creature you dont know who but he is a couple's feet from you inside the ink ball. He has red eyes and a wide open jaw. He walks towards you as you stumble backwards and try to run.

The man comes close enough he grabs your face as he looks you dead in the eye.

A hole appears in the ink ball around you and you see Sabo, Luffy and Ace trying to dodge the ink attacks as they get several cuts.

"You see that. Look at what you done. They might as well leave you dead after this. Maybe even it was all a game to them a simple item to entertain them and you were a fool to believe them as your friends"

"No! I'm sorry! I don’t want this to happen" You screamed but was muffled by the illusion person.

The monster looks you dead in the eyes, giving a look that can kill. When you felt that you were about to pass out the creatures suddenly drops you.

You pant heavily as you look around the black void that is slowly retreating back to you.

The Ink fully disappears around you as you stand up, tears gathering in your eyes threatening to fall.

You look up to see the three boys looking back at you slightly injured. You lower your head as you step on your heels and run into the forest ignoring the shouts from the boys behind you telling you to wait.

They probably were scared of you. Is the look in their eyes hatred, disgust. This was too much much for your young mind to understand.

You sat under a tree as you tried to keep composure. You didn't know what to do, they were the only people you knew....and cared about. You were just about hopeless without them.

Thoughts and ideas invaded your mind as you think about what happened and what will happen. Were they just using you...would they stay away from you...wish they never met you?

Your lips trembled you let small tears fall down your face onto the grass. Your throat started to burn and your heart started feeling tight in your chest. You didn't know why you had other reasons to cry about but this reason hit you right in the heart almost like you couldn't breath. Is this what people called an "Anxiety Attack"

You curled up into a ball as you stared to cry begging who ever to help you.

With Ace,Sabo and Luffy

The sun was starting to set and Ace, Sabo and Luffy were returning home. Luffy was sad that you were gone and Sabo had tried to reassure him, while at the same time he was trying to talk some sense into Ace.

"Ace... Don't you think you went too far?" the blond asked him.

In front of him, Ace clenched his fists.

"Ace! Ace!" Sabo called him, annoyed.

"Answer me!"

"Shut up! Stop making me feel more guilty than I already do!" Ace exclaimed, suddenly turning to look at him.

Sabo and Luffy stopped in their tracks, taken aback.

"Well, then you should have not made her cry and scared like that!" Sabo retorted, angry at what had happened. "Y/n is not weaker than us and you need to stop treating her like she is. Why did you act like that?"

"I was stupid, you're right okay? I didn't...want that to happen" Ace continued, letting out a sigh and lowering his gaze to the ground.

"I didn't want to say those words and to her and make her feel scared..... I want all of us to realize our dream and i want to see her become a pirate. But i just want her to know how to protect herself when she's has to come to decisions where life turns on you I know she strong but I know you and Luffy are good at fighting, but... I don't know, it's just that when it comes to her i'm always afraid that something will happen to her and-"

"You become more protective" Sabo interrupted.

"We understood that you love her more than us. I might get offended by this, you know?"

"I don't love her more than you! She's like my sister and I worry about her, that's all!"

"Sure, if you say so"

"Sabo!"

After a little while later, they reach the treehouse.

"Y/N is probably in the our treehouse!" Luffy exclaimed.

"I hope so let's checks" Sabo says as he started climbing his way to the tree house.

"Ya,I hope..I have to apologize" Ace mumbles as he begins climbing towards the treehouse.

Luffy climbed up to the treehouse looking around.

"I cant find her!" Luffy shrugged as checked every place in the place you could be.

"Then where could she be?" Sabo asked as he looked aswell.

"She wouldn't be at the hags place when she's upset..maybe she is with Makino" Ace says as he waste no time climbing down the tree and running towards the village, Luffy and Sabo barely catching up.

“Makino!” All the boys shout as they run into the bar.

“Hm? Yes, do you guys need something?” Makino questioned as she turned around, drying a beer glass in hand.

“Have you seen Y/N!” They all asked.

“No, I haven’t seen her today. Aren’t you four always together?” Makino asked.

“Ya but something happened.” Sabo says.

"Oh is that so, well I hope you guys figure it out" Makino smiles as she goes back to cleaning.

"Okay so we have checked with Makino, the treehouse and the old hags place and Great terminal, where else could she be? It's becoming late aswell" Sabo asks seeming quite concerned.

"I don't know" Luffy says swinging from a tree branch tiredly.

"I guess we should just sleep for now, she'll probably come around sooner or later." Ace recommends.

"I guess that okay" Sabo confirm as all three of the boys went into their treehouse and slept well not as peacefully with you on their mind missing, except Luffy you didn't mind.

You finished with your meltdown, and without even knowing till now you were scratching your palms so hard that they bled. You didn't even feel it!

It was late during the night when your gaze meets the treehouse where you and your "friends" slept in and played in. You don't even know if you should call them that anymore.

You decide that you would sit in the treehouse and just soak in the familiar feelings. You didn't know what do before they woke up, would you run away, join the Blue Jam pirates, even just leave they entire island, those were crazy, but what else could you do, you're a lonely young child who has no power to change the world to what they believe is right.

You climbed up the treehouse and watched all three of the young boys fast asleep. It made you smile a bit. You went to the window and leaned near it, looking at the trees sway in the wind.

It been quite for a while here, the blood on your hands weren't bleeding as much now, thoughts ran through your head but you stayed quite and calm.

"Y/N?"

You heard from behind you. You wipped your head around startled by the sudden voice.

You saw it was Ace. He was standing near his futon, his hair quite ruffled up from his sleep.

You turned your head back to the window hoping that he would just go back to sleep and imagine that this was a dream. Of course not, nothing goes your way, he came next to you as you kept looking out the window avoiding his gaze.

"Where were you all this time!? Why did you suddenly run away like that." Ace whispered shouted. He knew why you ran away like that, He just didn't want to confess it.

You kept silent, your voice stuck in your throat. It was quite for a few minutes until Ace spoke up again.

"I want to say that..I am sorry that I yelled at you like that, made you overexert yourself, made you cry, made you fight me even tho you clearly didn't want to..I'm sorry" Ace sighed the last part as he tried to look for your reaction, fidgeting with his hands.

He didn't know why he was being so...sensitive and sympathetic with you right now if that was even the right word.

Ace view came over to your hands where he saw scratches littering it, some of the scratches bleeding. Without talking he went over to the corner of a treehouse grabbing small bandages and walking back to you. He carefully and gently grabbed your palms so he didn't scare you.

He wrapped bandages around your hands and tightened it when finished so it stayed on. He removed his his own hands away from yours waiting to see if you'll say anything

You looked at your bandages and see how carefully they've been wrapped. One second you were looking at your bandages and the next you were hugging Ace tightly. You and Ace were surprised, why did you hug him so suddenly, was it because you felt it was right?

You didn't know but you just stayed there hugging Ace, while he softly hugged back flustered, like a lot. It wasn't until a slight diffrent emotion crossed his face as he heard small sniffles. When he felt his shirt where your face was getting wet by specifically tears he worried and may have been a bit dramatic.

"H-hey! Why're you crying! Stop crying!" He whisper shout harshly as he waves his hand around.

You stopped your crying as you just hugged Ace, finally speaking up.

"I was scared... that you'll guy's will hate me...or something like that" You murmured.

You couldn't see his face at the moment, but Ace was dumbfounded and a big sense of guilt washed over him. No..how could anyone hate you, you are amazing, beautiful, and strong...You’re the one who is suppose to hate them, not the other way around.

"I'm sorry for saying those things—I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I just worry about you a lot, even though I know you're fully capable of handling yourself. You're not weak, alright? I believe you have everything it takes to become a great pirate!" Ace shouted but nothing too loudly to wake up Luffy and Sabo but enough to get it through your head.

You moved your head to look at Ace, wide-eyed by his response. He did care. You smiled softly at him.

"Thank you Ace"

Sabo and Luffy woke up early in the morning.

"AH that was a great slee!-" Luffy shouted until his voice was muffled by Sabo as he slaped his hand over Luffy's mouth.

"Sabo!" Luffy tried to form to Sabo.

"Shhh" Sabo shushed Luffy as he pointed to a wall under the window in the treehouse where you and Ace both leaned on eachother for support; fast asleep.

"Y/N BAC!-" Luffy tried to exclaim.

"Shh"

"Oh okay, shhh" Luffy nodded, putting his pointer finger to his mouth in a "silent" formation.

Sabo went over to you and Ace where he grabbed two blankets and covered you and Ace separately, daring not to wake you both up.

Luffy and Sabo quietly left the treehouse leaving Ace and you in a quiet and calm sleep.

Any chance you could write some fluff about taking care of Matthew Knies after his concussion?

blurb!

you're supposed to be resting

matthew knies x reader || fluff

summary: basically eaxctly was was requested, and matthew is very stubborn

author's note: im so sorry this took so long! ive been super busy lately

word count: 1k

-

you didn't even have to open the front door before you could hear the sound of the tv playing, you knew matthew was watching the leafs play. Having supposed to be essentially on bed rest after his concussion, it infuriated you to know he wasn't taking it completely seriously.

You told him you werent coming over until later so you knew he wasnt expecting you, but you couldnt stand knowing he was home alone, probably not taking care of himself like he should be

You open the door and see matt click the tv off immediately. He looks over at you with a knowing look and you shake your head back at him. After closing the door behind you, you kick your shoes off and head to the kitchen to put away the food you bought for the weekend. 

“Hi baby, you're here early…” matthew says finally 

“What are you doing?” you ask, seeing as he is sitting on the couch with no tv on

“Im…uh” he starts, “don't lie.” you say, breaking him

“Fine, I turned the game on. But I swear I was only going to watch for a minute. It was killing me.” 

You roll your eyes and head over to sit beside him on the couch. You knew it killed him not to be able to play tonight, let alone attend the game. But he was under strict rules not to watch any screens or devices, as to not worsen his concussion. 

“I know matty” you say as you sit right next to your boyfriend, cuddling into his side and lifting your legs to rest bent on his lap. He wraps his arm around you, pulling you tighter and resting his hand on your butt

“How about i distract you” you suggest, knowing it would eat him alive anyway, just listening to the game and not being able to watch

“Hm. i like that idea” he says, leaning his head back against the couch and closing his eyes tightly. You could tell the brightness of the room was irritating him

“Hey! how bout we go upstairs and cuddle, yeah?” you knew if you suggested he lay down in a dark room without you he would not be very happy about that. He hated this recovery period, so honestly the most effective method in helping him recover was treating him like a little kid and making things sound like the best idea ever. 

“Id love that” he says, lifting you up with him bridal style as he stands up from the couch and starts heading towards the stairs. 

“Wait! Pit stop!” you say pointing towards the kitchen and he turns on his heels

“On it” he says, obeying your demands as he carries you towards the kitchen

“Freezer please!” you say and he heads towards the freezer door. You open it and pull out an ice pack for his head. Matthew rolls his eyes, knowing you were slightly tricking him into getting the ice for himself

“Ok lets go bud.” you say sharply as you pat his chest, not giving him any time to complain 

you place the ice pack at the back of matts neck, holding it there as you head upstairs. When you reach the bedroom you swiftly turn the light off as you pass by the door, making sure the room is perfect in aiding matthews injury.

“I know what you're doing you know” matt says as he places you down on the bed

“What? Coming over to cuddle with you?” 

“Mm more like coming over to take care of me?” he says, mocking your voice and making you crack a smile. He sits beside you in the dark room as you lie in his bed, and wait for him to join you

“Well you were literally doing everything you shouldn't be doing when i walked in sooo…”

“I've been lying down all day long!” he says exasperatedly, knowing you're right 

“Well I'm here now. and I want to cuddle. So we're gonna lie down some more mkay?” you say sassily as you reach in front of you, trying to find him in the dark. You find his chest and pull him towards you by his shirt, urging him to give in to you

Matthew took this as an opportunity to place a kiss on your lips, catching you off guard. After a moment, you lean into the kiss and matthew scoots closer to you, closing the space that was between you both

Matthew passionately grabs you by the waist as he leans over your body, kissing down your neck, making his way to your chest

You pull his face up to yours and he fights to bring it down again

“Matty!” you whine and he continues kissing you cheeks after leaving bruises on your neck

“You're supposed to be resting.” you say with a laugh and he sits up on his elbows, hovering over you, and you can just tell there is a smirk on his face. 

He places a gentle kiss on your lips, ignoring your previous statement. 

“This is not resting” you say as you press your pointer finger to his lips and you can feel his smirk grow against your finger. You're trying really hard not to sound like a babysitter, but are still trying to look out for him

“Ok fine” he sighs out as he collapses beside you. With his body off of yours, you take this as an opportunity to reach down to the end of the bed and find the ice pack that was left there, swiftly placing it behind his head.

Without a word he turns his head to look at you with squinted eyes. Even in the dark, you can just see the annoyance plastered all over his face. You hold in a laugh as you adjust his pillow, continuing to care for your injured boyfriend. 

He helps you adjust the sheets as you both get undr the covers. Regardless of his feigned annoyance, you knew matthew did appreciate you and what you were doing for him. 

“Ok ok ok” Matthew says, stopping you as you are still adjusting his ice pack. he pulls you in beside him and you immediately place a hand under his shirt, moving your hand up and down his chest. Something you always did to comfort him.

 He begins placing kisses to the top of your head as you cuddle in beside him, relaxing completely under his touch

CHARLES XAVIER X OC pt.5!!!

Part II of post prologue

PLEASE CHECK PREVIOUS PARTS OF THIS STORY ON MY BLOG FOR WARNINGS!!!

AN: DON'T MIND THE RANDOM TENSE SWITCH IN THE MIDDLE! I DON'T WANT TO GO IN AND FIX IT SO JUSt GO WITH IT!! Haha! I'm a terrible writer *facepalm* Also once again, im not sticking to plot so i know that shaw wasnt technically chilling with the rest of them specifically when charles and erik are there and capture frost! And also that the group hasnt really gotten training at this point in time, once again, im pretend that's not the case for the story. 

The past few weeks had been mostly sitting around, occasionally I was actually needed. Usually I felt as though Shaw was flaunting me. Showing off his overpowered mutant ally that little did they know wasn't actually an ally. Even less now that I had actually helped the enemy. That instance being really the only thought going through my head that actually had any substance. It sparked a little fire in me that I hadn't felt in so long. Was it purpose? I hadn't had a purpose in so long, at least not one of my own, and it seemed that just that small act of rebellion was breathing new life into me. To my team, I stayed the same unresponsive and disconnected person I had been for the last forever. Only now, I wasn't actually feeling that way inwardly. I had Charles to thank for that. As weird as that was.

I thought of him often. Unfortunately often meant pretty consistently. I gave myself the excuse that it was about rebelling against Shaw after so many years under his control rather than just Charles. But it was both. 

Currently we were in the car heading to a meeting that Shaw had set up with a russian operative. We had landed in russia about a week ago I was happy to be off the submarine. I was sitting in the middle seat of a sleek black car and I kept my focus on the dashboard in front of me. I didn't want to know what Shaw and this man were planning out so I used my disassociation as a defensive strategy. We got out of the car and made our way through, what looked to be, an entirely abandoned parking garage. We were pretty far away from any buildings so I wasn't sure why it was even there.

 My brain felt itchy all of a sudden. I felt a small shock of adrenaline start up inside of me and I didnt really understand why. I was planning on not listening so I wasn't sure why my body was suddenly so awake. 

Shaw walked forward to the man that was standing just a ways ahead of us. He turned towards me, snapping his fingers signaling for me to follow beside him. I caught up and held my hands behind my back at the ready for my powers.

“Check for others that may be hiding, I don't trust this guy.” Shaw whispered to me discreetly. I flexed my hands behind my back and focused on my surroundings. I felt the blood of each member of my team, of me, of Shaw, and of the man ahead. Suddenly I felt the rushing blood and beating heart of another person, several people, further away but they were here, I knew that. I glanced around but saw no one. I slowed to be able to focus more, something was moving on my right, past shaw in the stairwell. I watched as a head poked out. Charles’, head. 

We locked eyes, mine flashed wide, surprised. That explained why my mind was acting up. Cause he was near and it, for some stupid reason, wanted him to connect with mine again. He looked at me with a glint in his eyes. I looked away quickly before anyone noticed me looking at him. That's when I felt the click of him entering my mind. 

“Was hoping I’d see you here.” his voice told me he was smiling. 

How am I supposed to respond, Shaw’ll hear me. I panicked

“That's alright honey I hear you loud and clear.” He said, somehow reading my thoughts

Oh. I glanced over to Charles who chuckled silently before ducking back behind the walls of the stairs to god knows where

Shaw nudged me.

“So? Jesus May.” He said getting impatient with me. 

In only a split second I had a gazillion thoughts going through my head. Should I say there are more people here? If I don't then he’ll know I wasn't telling the truth when these guys pop out of nowhere. I can't do that, Shaw would be absolutely livid. But charles…

Before I think any harder the words come out “No ones here.”

What am I doing?? Oh god. 

“Good.” Shaw mumbles. “This should go smoothly then.” 

I swallow, thoughts flashing to when charles and everyone else with him would reveal himself and Shaw would know that I was wrong. I could already feel the taste of blood in my mouth and the headache forming.

Shaw shakes the man's hand once we reach him. The rest of Shaw's protege are a little ways behind us. Shaw talks to the man who hands him a yellow envelope that looks rather large. My eyes are flitting around trying to feel out where everyone is and how many there are.

I feel a body, someones blood, seem to charge, the blood in their veins seems to catch fire. I whip around and push Shaw towards the ground and out of the way of a blast that shoots out at us. I hope that me saving his life will give him less incentive to beat me later. Another red beam blows across the space at the man in front of us who goes flying into the concrete wall behind us causing it to crumble and deteriorate. I whip around to see an entire team of basically teenagers coming towards us. I recognize the girl from before but there are several others, all suited in fighting suits and doing surprisingly well coordinated attacks for their age. I feel in my mind that charles is still connected to me and search him out. He's calling orders to the group, they listen to Charles with unwavering trust, I can tell by the way their nervous system relaxes just slightly with his orders, he guides them and helps them to stay alert and on the offense. I wonder what it would be like to have a leader like that.

Wait! I call to him in my head. He glances in my direction but that's the only clue I get that he heard me. 

Shaw is up on his feet yelling at me to do something. I'm still on the ground when another body seems to appear out of nowhere

“Erik! NOW!” Charles’ voice booms across the garage. Suddenly my wrists are clamped together by metal bars that have been torn from the railing of the sides of the parking garage. They fly through the air at me and before I can react have a hold on me. I'm dragged back to the far wall by my wrists. When I make contact my head splits in pain as it bangs against the concrete. Charles winces at me before turning his attention on Azezel fighting him as he flashes around, I worry for a moment that Charles isnt good enough but he seems to manage alright with the help of the other mutants.

 I yank on the binds around my wrists but they have been bent into the wall keeping me stuck in place. Frost yells at me to stop them with my powers but my head is spinning and I can't get a grip on anything but the blood spilling out of the side of my head. I can control blood without my hands but it takes a large deal more concentration and focus than I am able to muster up right now. I try to move that back into my head but I'm slipping in and out of consciousness. 

I groan as I pull on my wrists again but they are pressed firmly against the concrete. The whole parking garage seems to be coming down. There's at least four stories above us that seem to be losing support with each blow shooting across the expansion. I worry that if I can't get out of these binds I'll be crushed under the concrete. 

I cry out for help. My team seems to get farther and farther from me as the fighting goes on. The blood seeping out of the wound on my head spills into my eyes turning my vision red on one side. I feel my mind go in and out of focus and I realize I'm losing too much blood. I gather myself to try and use my powers with my mind otherwise I know I will die here. A deep breath and then I've connected with my own blood, guiding it out of my eye and back into my head, while it moves I take out the impurities it gathered on its way out of my head. I feel every speck of dust from the concrete and push it away from my blood. It swirls as I pull out everything else that shouldn't be entering my blood stream. I begin forming a thick scab to hold the blood inside my head but before I get very much of it done there's another searingly loud bang. This one sends a shock through my body at its proximity and I lose focus so I can make sure It didn't come too close to me. The room is caught in fire and the action is even more distant. I wondered if anyone would come for me once there's a winner. I wondered if there would be a winner. Will Shaw kill them all? Is he going to kill charles? Or maybe… Charles would win. 

Another goran escapes me, the pounding in my head is only intensified as the explosion dies down and leaves me with a loud ringing in my ears. I feel tears coming on though I'm not sure why. Some of the blood from my head wound drips out again but it's significantly less than before and I assume it's good enough to turn my focus on trying to escape the metal pinning me to the wall. I plant my feet against the concrete and give myself a little leverage to stand. Once im stood up, i try to slip my hands out from that angle but nothing budges. I push my feet down to try a little harder but still nothing gives. My foot slips on the dusty concrete and I land back on the ground. I feel my blood trickle down my neck giving me chills and making me light headed again. I can feel myself getting hot as the smoke fills the garage, it slips out slowly through the opening on the sides but it fills my lungs nonetheless. Things are beginning to get hazy again and I can't seem to get a full breath in. Due to the ringing in my ears I can't even tell if there's any fighting anymore. They could have all left and I would not have known. Still I call out 

“Shaw!” I wail. “Frost?” My voice sounds muffled in my head. My head lulls as I lean against the wall to support my weakened state. I feel myself slip down the pile of rubble im leaning against, my shirt tearing and the sharp concrete scraping my back open. I can't tell how bad the damage is as I feel the garage tremble above me. I try calling out one more name, before the smoke in my lungs makes me black out.

[hehearse]

i keep trying to like. hold myself back from sending too many asks but im listening to my orv playlist again and every single song starts playing and i immediately fall ill. anyways!!

idk if u mind or not but ORV Spoilers for anyone reading this 👍

eighteen is Francis Forever by Mitski. hsy and yjh about kdj. specifically when theyre both trying to cope with him being gone post scenarios.

"i dont know what to do without you, i dont know where to put my hands. ive been trying to lay my head down, but im writing this at 3am" is so hsy.

"on sunny days i go out walking, i end up on a tree-lined street. i look up at the gaps of sunlight, i miss you more than anything" is yjh. i always think about how he takes to running post scenarios.

"i dont think i could stand to be where you dont see me" feels so much like how as a constellation kdj could join the channel and watch them even when he wasnt in the scenarios.

nineteen is Welly Boots by The Amazing Devil. kdj and his kids. sys and lgy and even ljh. i feel like the anger about it fits with jihye more than yoosung and gilyoung, despite her not being like. His Child. in the same way the other two are.

twenty! Soldier, Poet, King by The Oh Hellos!! yjh, hsy, kdj. a soldier, a poet, and a king. thats just what they are.

twenty-one. Boats & Birds by Gregory and the Hawk!! kimcom in general abt kdj. the whole stardust part is upsettingly accurate to how he fucking scattered himself over the entire universe.

so many evil songs get added to my playlist. i don't think i got that many new songs in the last 4 years that i got in the last. whatever number of days it was. the playlist is so fresh and unfamiliar now...

Francis Forever by Mitski

a murder from the start huh. but also the lines "i don't think i could stand to be where you don't see me". rotating in my brain. something something about kdj on the train but not watching him despite being able too. scared to see them smiling in front of a sunset along with him - without him. something about them visiting him in the hospital, unchanging, unconcious, so close yet unseeing, scattered far away... head in hands

Welly Boots by The Amazing Devil

WOHOO back to the songs i know B)

specifically lee jihye grabbing his collar, screaming about them betraying and letting die the constellations that were on their side. and the song as a whole. very much kids and kdj. loving but distant and speaking different language. realisation of love hitting with a delay.

(but as the devil on your shoulder, let me whisper sweet nothings into your ear. in an evil, fucked up way it could be 17yo yoohyun about yoojin. still holding trust and belief that they are not that far apart even if he leaves)

do you see my vision?? do you???? (<- possessed by the sctir demons)

i feel like the Soldier, Poet, King by The Oh Hellos i got shown along with several DIFFERENT animatics even during my voluntarily confinment in the non-spoiler bubble FSDECDE so there is nothing more to say about it....

Boats & Birds by Gregory and the Hawk

this is so evil of you. so cruel to miette. "I live to make you free"??? head in hands. yeah. the gentle melancholy etc etc... i would even. more spicifically point at ysa. because she knew all along.... and she let him go (even if she didn't want to, even if she didn't want to so bad...... i wonder if that's what being in his head for so long did to her. or strengthened her resolve in that regard.)

[fcknstar]

,, need you here "

harryosborn x fem!reader

a.n : hi uhm yes ill be posting more the next day since my hand have been itching.

warnings : nsfw MINORS DO NOT INTERACT

**lowercase intended**

it wasnt long till harry fucked himself so hard into obliviation. watching himself in the mirror twitching, harry had it coming. he saw the way you looked into his friends eyes, the way youd talk so angelic, the way youd hit his shoulder whenever hed tease you. of course it infuriated him when he realizes that its peter you are talking to. he couldnt help but imagine the things youd do with peter. 

harry didnt just want you, he needed you, but he hardly admits that. he felt the way his heart yearned for you, the way his dick yearned for you, how his dick wanted to fill you. and you, you in that darn filthy black dress you had on during tonights party made him feel more needy and whiny for you. he wanted to pull his heart out of his body and gift it to you if he could. show him his beating heart that gives him the chance to watch you, to be here breathing with you.

hurried knocks erupted from the other side of the door, releasing harry from his thoughts. 

"hey man, i really need to take a piss. " whoever it was from the other side clearly wanted a death wish. harry wasnt even able to cum peacefully and had to hold that uncomfortable feeling he felt in his stomach, with his dick twitching at such small contact. 

" yea, yea hold on. " harry quickly zipped up his pants, washing his hands and cleaning the counter for any remains he might have left. 

walking out of the bathroom, the guy from the other side rushed in and slammed the door shut. harry heard a content sigh, and started walking towards the homemade bar that the host made, wanting to drown the feeling in his shots.

there, he saw you and peter still talking. annoying, he thought. harry couldnt even get to talk to you, and here is peter, stealing harrys only shot to talk to you. peter just wanted to show harry who you liked more and harry wanted to kill peter so badly that hed serve peters head on a silver platter on your doorstep. 

" come on dude, tonights the party and shes going. go and talk to her - just like the way you talk to every girl you see. able to sweep her up with your charms. " peter had been trying to convince harry, hoping itd change his mind about the party. 

" okay, but will you be there, with me? i dont know. i just turn all fuzzy for her man. " harry hid his face in his hands, sighing as his options began closing in on him.

“ of course, id be there. now what do you plan on wearing? “ 

harry felt like shit, seeing his best friend go for the same girl he liked. i mean, who was harry to assume but it seemed liked it and it had destroyed him internally. it was like having your eye on a target anyone barely knew and telling someone about it, but the same person has its eye on it the same as you after entrusting him with a secret. 

walking up to you two, he saw how close your faces were, as if peter was going to tell you a dirty secret. placing his hand onto your shoulder, he had interrupted your conversation. peter now understanding what harry wanted, backed away and beckoned goodbye to you. 

“ hey harry, whats up? “ your voice was mellifluous . if he could, he would want to spend his whole lifetime just to listen to your voice. even if you were to be angry with him, he would do anything to listen to you, to please you.

“ i just want to see if you are alright? “ it sounded more like a question to himself. with you, he didnt know how to cleanly start a conversation, but with other girls, he just blurt out whatever he had on his mind. he was afraid that you would judge him, scared to lose his nonexistent chance with you. 

“ yea i was fine until you came..all jokes. “ you laughed. the number one rule of talking to you is that to prepare yourself for some sarcastic remarks, you thought were funny. maybe thats why he was afraid despite harry himself throwing sarcastic comments left and right. 

“ oh right.. you and peter..? “ the scene of your faces being close together really irks him knowing that you were breathing the same air peter was breathing. 

“ oh, we were just talking. he was telling me about something rather…private? “ private? what could be so private that you needed to bring your faces so close. jealousy bubbled in his stomach, not realizing that his jealousy  reflected on how easy angry hed get. you had nearly let out peters secret but covered it up quickly. 

“  private? whats so private that looked like you were going to kiss him? “ harry had let that slip out. harry hadnt noticed that you were quite sober, being able to down alcohol without getting drunk immediately. sensing harrys tone, you were confused as to why he acted like that.

“ its just private alright? why are you being so - i dont know. its just really complicated. “ your eyes darted towards peter who were currently socializing with others. peter had previously shared with you about his newly developed web shooters, you being one of the people he told about his newly found secret life hes been multitasking with his school life. 

“ yea, well. everythings complicated with peter. i dont do complicated. “ harry flashed a smile before downing his left over alcohol. 

watching him with content, you noticed how you never really paid attention to him. if you could, you would spend hours watching him if it didnt appear creepy.

harry noticed your staring and couldnt help but blush lightly at the thought that you might feel the same way. the way your eyes got all big and doe excited him. it was as if you were a test paper he couldnt wait to solve ; you are such an openbook yet mysterious. he couldnt get enough of you and didnt know what to do. 

“ youre so pretty. “ you whispered, thinking that it was your thoughts that spoke and not you actually saying it outloud. it was when harry laughed when you took in what had happened. 

it was now harrys turn to look at you. when you met his gaze, you quickly looked away with how intensive his gaze was. filling yourself up another cup, you saw harry put his empty cup down and felt his hand snake around your waist. of course youd start to tense up, who wouldnt. 

moving your hips against his towards the soft music playing in the background, you cant help but stay stiff. harry soon felt himself get hard again.

“ do i make you nervous, (name)? “ he whispered. his face dangerously close to your neck and you felt his breath against your sensitive spot. oh how dearly did you want him.

inhaling to gather up courage, you turn towards him and crushed your lips onto his. fuck, harry thought. he was so dizzy that it felt like he died and his wishes were playing, dying on him. but no, there you were, taking in his air as if you were going to die and depended on him to supply you air. 

wrapping your arms around his neck, you pushed him against the counter that was behind him. and with that, he allowed you to take control of him, of his body. he almost felt like a porcelain doll with the way you handled him. it was soft and gentle, yet rough and needy. smiling into the kiss, he dipped his head lower to taste every depth of your mouth, wanting to taste how sweet you made the alcohol. 

pulling away, harrys lips followed yours like a pet. looking behind you, harry spotted peter watching with a content smile, bringing his hands into a gesture of a thumbs up. harry was confused. why would he be so supportive and proud when he was previously trying to get you? maybe it was up to peters plan, knowing how harry can be a wussy if it really meant to him, peter wanting harry to probably quicken the process. or maybe peter wanted to prove harry that he too can have anything in his life if he worked hard for it.

Can I request overprotective Maggie Greene? Don’t care what it is, there’s just too much shortage of her🥲

Heyy!! I wasn't too sure if u wanted her to be protective in more of a motherly way or in a girlfriend way, but here u go!! It's also not very long bc i didn't have that much ideas🫨 so sorry if this sucks. Right now, it's 5 in the morning🐊 (Thanks sm for the request, btw😭❤️🫶)

Warnings: almost getting bitten (?)

We were out on a run, me, Maggie, Glenn, and Tara.

"Y/n, stay with me, alright?" Maggie told me, "yeah yeah" i just rolled my eyes.

It was always like this, whenever i was asked to come on a run, Maggie always wanted me to stay close so she could 'protect me', it wasn't that bad to have a personal guard, but sometimes it could be nice to be able to do something on my own.

A couple minutes later, Glenn put the car to a stop and we all got out, as soon i got out of the car, Maggie grabbed my arm and smiled, "Lets get going guys, stay with me, Y/n" I rolled my eyes again and sighed, "Yes, mom" i said the last part in a more sarcastic way, "im serious Y/n, i don't want you to get hurt" she said, still holding my arm and pulling me with her following Glenn and Tara who were already walking towards the abandoned building.

Once we were inside, Maggie pushed me down on a chair standing in the corner of the room.

"Okay, you sit here, me, Tara and Glenn are gonna see if we can find anything usefull, okay? Stay here." She pushed a gun into my hands and kissed my cheek, "Take this just incase, dont go running off, 'kay?" I sighed again, "Yes, Maggie, I'll be fine" she smiled, "good" she kissed my head and went into the other room with Tara and Glenn.

As soon as Maggie and the others left the room, i stood up from my chair and walked outside, trying not to make a sound so Maggie wouldn't notice i was gone.

I wasnt sure about the plan, but i wanted to do something, something to impress Maggie so she would actually trust me instead of being so protective the whole time.

Back at the car, i was looking around for possible walkers, after a couple minutes of nothing, i started to feel thirsty, grabbing a bottle of water from my bag, though there wasnt much left, i opened the car door to look inside for more to drink.

I heard footsteps behind me, without looking back, i spoke, "And? Find anything usefull?" I turned around, only to find a couple of walkers walking in my direction, 'dammit', i thought, quickly grabbing the gun Maggie gave me and shooting a couple of walkers in the head, watching them fall to the ground.

One more walker was left, and i stepped back, my back hitting the car, the walker kept coming closer once it was pretty much pressed against me, trying to bite me while i was trying to push it away, before i could react, a knife was drivin into its skull, falling to the ground, revealing Maggie standing behind it.

"What the hell Y/n?!" I couldn't tell whether she was mad or not, she looked upset but i could tell in her voice that she wasn't.

"I told you to stay, but you couldn't listen?" I felt myself tearing up slightly, obviously i wasnt used to getting yelled at by Maggie,

Glenn walked over to us, "How about we get back to Alexandria?", "yeah, let's go, " Tara said before getting into the drivers seat.

"Im the driver!"

"Not anymore"

Small time skip to back at Alexandria

I was lying down on the couch, facing the ceiling, I felt like i messed up, Maggie got mad at me because i didn't listen. Even though she was just trying to protect me, I thought about what happened and realised i probably wouldnt have survived if Maggie wasn't there, as soon as i got up to get a drink, i heard the door open.

Maggie walked in, she smiled at me, "Hey," I smiled back, "Hey." She sat down next to me on the couch, "I feel like we should talk." I nodded in agreement, she continued.

"Look, i know you don't enjoy me being so 'on your ass' the whole time, but i care about you, 'kay? I want you to be safe. " I nodded again, "Yeah.. im sorry, too. i know you were just trying to help. I should've listened to you, im sorry." She smiled at me again, "It's okay, Y/n, just try to be more careful, you almost got bit today, we can't let that happen, y'know?"

"Yeah, i know." I sighed and pulled her in for a hug, and immediately felt her arms wrap around me.

"I love you, Y/n."

"I love you too."

[bridgyrose]

Days had passed since her friends had arrived and Penny was still no closer to finding out what Ironwood had wanted with them or why he wanted to keep everything quiet. Walking to his office to try to listen in only managed to get her pulled away to take care of some grimm, any attempt to talk to Yang or Blake was met with empty promises to tell her what was going on, and Ruby… seeing the way that Ruby was used as a weapon to clear out grimm from the mines reminded her of how the General had used her before Beacon fell, only to nearly toss her away when she couldnt live up to what she had been built for. 

Penny sighed as she stood up and started to make her rounds around Mantle with Weiss, taking to the streets to look for any grimm that made it through the wall. 

“Everything alright, Penny?” Weiss asked. “You seem… distracted.” 

“I… I am worried about Ruby,” Penny answered. “We hardly get to see her and I want to make sure she is safe. That she is not becoming like how I was.” 

“A machine?” 

“A weapon. A tool. Something for the General to use and to put away when he is done. I do not want her to go through the same thing I did.” 

“I worry about her too, but there’s nothing we can do. If the General needs her, then it has to be important, right? And the next time we see her we’ll help her get her memories back.” 

“If we get to talk to her,” Penny thought to herself. It was going to be unlikely that they were ever going to be able to talk to her again, and even if they did, there was no guarantee they’d be able to undo anything that was done to repress Ruby’s memories. Dying wasnt easy, and coming to terms with that death takes time. And time felt like it was running out. Beacon falling, Atlas cutting off all trade and putting up a blockade to keep people from coming and going, her friends suddenly showing up… something was coming and she needed to know what. “Have you been able to talk to our friends?” she asked. “I know that you have missed them dearly.” 

“Only a little,” Weiss admitted. “They’ve been kept busy so I havent been able to see Blake and Yang much. And Jaune… he’s worried about Ruby too, but he has other things on his mind.” 

“Have they told you what they’re here for?” 

Weiss shook her head. “Not really, only that it was important and that they were told not to bring us into it. Though, they wouldnt say why.” 

Penny nodded and sighed. “Maybe we will find out more.” 

“I hope so. It feels strange to be this close to my friends and be so far away from them.” 

Penny nodded and stopped in her step as her scroll picked up the alert of grimm entering into Mantle. She looked out in the direction the alert had told her the grimm was, frowning. “That cant be right, it seems like its almost near the crater.” 

“Maybe its a flying grimm?” Weiss suggested.

“Maybe, but we would have gotten an alert sooner if it flew over us.” 

“Unless the alert system was tampered with.” 

“I’ll meet you out there,” Penny said as she took to the air. She took a breath to try to calm herself as she flew over Mantle and scanned for any grimm as she made her way to the crater. There were no signs of grimm having run from one of the holes in the wall towards the crater, and if it was a flying grimm, then it should’ve been sighted earlier or at least taken care of by the airships that patrolled the air. 

As she made it closer to the crater, she spotted a lone sabyr near the crater, though it seemed different from other grimm. Less stable, an ichor dripping from it that led to a nearby crack in the street. It was almost as if the grimm had just suddenly appeared on its own. Still, she started to charge her laser to blast it.

“Fiona, block it from running away! May, get the civilians away until we know if there’s more here. Joanna, you know what to do!” 

Penny paused and lowered her hand as she watched a group of huntresses take care of the grimm with ease. Once the grimm was taken care of, she lowered herself to the ground, eyes still watching the huntresses as she scanned them to find their identities. 

“About time Ironwood’s toy shows up,” the leader of the huntresses, who she recognized as Robyn, said without looking at Penny. “I take it he’s finally going to deal with the grimm showing up.” 

“I am not sure I understand what you mean,” Penny said as she walked over. “This is the first time I have gotten a warning about any grimm this close to the crater.” 

Robyn turned around and offered a hand to Penny. “Then what are you here for?” 

Penny reached out to take Robyn’s hand for a moment, pulling back, and then taking her hand. “I had gotten an alert for a grimm out here.” She paused when she saw the aura around her hand turn green. “My partner and I are supposed to keep Mantle safe, but seeing a grimm out here without any other alerts sounded off.” 

Robyn pulled her hand away and motioned for Penny to follow. “Then maybe the two of you can help us out.” 

“Help out?” 

“Grimm like that one have been popping up around the crater without warning. We thought they were coming through the wall and tearing through the soldiers left to keep the grimm out, but after today, we dont think that’s the case anymore.” 

Penny followed Robyn, almost curious about what Robyn had meant. “I still do not think I understand. Grimm do not just appear out of nowhere.” 

“These have. We actually watched one crawl up through a crack in the ground.” 

“Why have you not told General Ironwood about this?” 

“We’ll tell him whenever it is he finally opens up about why supplies for the wall are being moved towards Amity Arena out in the tundra.” 

“He… he said he was going to take care of the wall,” Penny said quietly. “I was just supposed to protect Mantle until then.” 

Robyn shrugged. “Guess he keeps some things closer to his chest than I thought. In the meantime, I’ll need you to help out around here. And maybe you can help us find out more about what Ironwood is doing.” 

“I… I will need to think about it.” 

“You know where to find me.” 

Penny nodded and started to make her way to Weiss. Grimm appearing out of cracks in the streets, repair supplies getting pushed to Amity instead of the wall, none of it made any sense. Much less that the General would allow for anything like this. 

“There you are!” Weiss called out as she ran over to Penny. “Sorry I’m late. A few grimm appeared without an alert and I had to stop them. You’ll never guess how they appeared though.” 

“Through the cracks in the ground,” Penny said more than asked. 

“Y-yeah, how… how did you know?” 

“You are not the first to notice. Robyn said the same thing.” 

“Robyn… Robyn Hill? You actually spoke to her?” 

Penny nodded. “She seems to trust me and is hoping that I can work with her to find out what the General is doing.” 

“He’s trying to keep Mantle safe, isnt he?” 

“Robyn said he is moving supplies from the wall to the tundra to help with Amity.” 

“But the wall… we were only supposed to protect Mantle until he could get that repaired.” 

“That is what Robyn wants us to find out.” 

“Then we should do it!” 

Penny paused for a moment, almost thinking everything over. She trusted Weiss and her judgment, but she also trusted the General. Still, if Robyn was right, then they had to do something to help keep Mantle safe. “Alright, but if we do, then we cannot tell Ironwood that we are working with her.” 

Weiss smiled. “That wont be a problem.”

Cal Stone x reader (fluffy fluff stuff)

Listen, it starts out with young Cal but all the actual romancey style stuff is when hes older. Dont get weird on me about kid Cal having a crush on you. I remember kids having crushes on me when I was a teen and it was just cute in an awe look at you with a big ole crush kinda way. Like the way id look at my brother having a crush on someone when he was young. Ok. Ok.

I avoided and gender terms so use what you want! 😘

You were Cal and Olive's best friend growing up, often spending the night and always trying to come over every chance possible. You wouldnt let on to Olive for obvious reasons but you had the biggest crush on her brother. When the plane disappeared you were often there for her and Grace, as they were you too. When your mom got sick and passed, Grace took you in completely. She had adopted you. That was 1 year before the plane returned. When it did, you were the most excited and terrified you had ever thought you could be. Mostly you were excited to see Cal. The shock that took over your body when you actually seen him was an understatement. He was still a child. Seeing him just the way he was the day they had left for their trip was freaky.

~months later~

By this point you had gotten used to everything, almost better than everyone else for that matter. You treated Cal more like a brother now. It was cute when he was around you though. He almost always had a small tint of pink on his cheeks. To think 5 year's ago you had a massive crush on him was weird, even weirder now because you thought he had a crush on you. Oh the irony, you thought.

~Mick and Zeke's wedding~

You had been sitting in the corner watching everyone dance. Cal had been staring at you for a while now smiling but not quite coming over. Finally after you had had enough of being stared at you walked over. "Cal?" He looked up and a blush appeared on his little face. "H-hey, y/n." "Wanna dance little bud?" You smiled holding your hand out for the boy. "Okay!" He perked up quickly grabbing your hand and jumping out of his seat.

~at Grace's funeral~

You had been sat with Olive and everyone at the very front. That's where you were expected to be. You had been adopted by her. She wasnt your mother but you were her daughter, even before she had adopted you she had always said that. You kept looking to Cal in his older body in the back away from everyone. "This isnt right." You mumbled before getting up and heading to him. Olive started to look as though she was going to protest it but didn't. "Hey." You said, once next to him. "Shouldnt you be up there." He said through slight sniffles. "I'd rather stand with you." Cal looked at you for a second before breaking down and you pulled him into a tight hug. This wasnt right. Grace was his mother. He shouldve been up front with Olive and Ben.

~2 months after~

You had taken Cal with you to get groceries for the house. "Ok, so I got everything on the list. Do you want a snack or something before we go?" You asked looking at him. Cal started to reply but was interrupted by an old woman. "Oh look at that. Reminds me of us, honey." She said to her husband. "Such a lovely couple. I remember our first shopping trip together." Both of your faces turned red with awkward looks planted on your faces. "I- we're not! I mean- uh... Th-thank you...." You stumbled over your words trying not to be mean or rude but also entirely embarrassed. You hadnt thought about how it looked to others with Cal being the same age as you now. Come to think of it you hadnt much thought about how he was the same age as you now, at all.

~later that day~

The car ride home was super awkward. For you at least. Cal didnt say much on it but he had just played along and wrapped an arm around You smiling thanking the old woman like it was nothing. ((I just imagine him being able to just switch into this act like nothing)) now at home, You had been stocking the fridge and pantry alone. "Hey. How'd the shopping trip go?" You jumped, hitting your head on the roof of the fridge, upon hearing Zeke walk in. "Woah. Didnt mean to startle you." He laughed a little. "I-it's ok! I mean- uh. Yeah its ok." You said earning a look from the man. "Hmm. Ok. Whats got you so flustered?" "Flustered? I'm not flustered. Are you flustered? Cause I'm not." Zeke gave a knowing look to you. "Right." Just then Cal walked into the kitchen. "Oh hey, honey!" He emphasized the pet name, making your face go red. "Cal!" You shouted trying to hide your face. "Stop, that was so awkward!" "Ok, now I'm really curious how the shopping trip went." Said Zeke. Cal laughed and told Zeke about the old couple.

~1 months later~

At this point everyone was in on the joke. Calling you and Cal a couple. After the first 2 weeks you had accepted it and went along, although now you werent able to look at Cal as a kid anymore. Which he didnt really act like one either.

~6 months after Grace~

Olive had come to terms and stopped blaming Cal by this point, which was great. Ben, however was slipping farther and farther. Today had been an especially bad day. Cal was upset and it was just you and him at the house, besides Ben who was upstairs spiraling, as usual. "Do you wanna go out or do something? Maybe get your mind off it?" You asked him. He sniffled and looked up to you. "Sure. Like where or what?" "Uh.. Well. Maybe... Um I think the fair is in town." "Yes!" He jumped up. "I'll go get ready!" You laughed and decided to do the same. Now you were in your room getting ready and struggling with what to wear. Why were you so focused on your outfit? You couldn't figure it out but once deciding on the cutest one you went to Cal's door. You were about to knock when Cal opened the door running right into you. "Y/n! I'm so sorry!" He shouted as he caught you, pulling you close to his chest. Up close like this you could smell his cologne. Odd. Why would he where cologne just to go to the fair. "It's ok, Cal." You smiled up at him. "You ready?" You asked and he nodded before reluctantly releasing his grip on you.

~ at the fair ~

You had been there for a few hours now, riding all the rides over and over again. "I'm so glad you talked me into the wrist bands!" You giggled as you got off the dizzy disc for the 3rd time followed by a very wobbly Cal. "I think I'm going to be sick.." He said half jokingly. You then saw one of your favorite rides had no line at the moment and quickly grabbed his hand, dragging him along to it. "This one next!" You shouted staring up at it. You were so excited you hadnt realized you still had Cal's hand, nor had you realized the prominent blush on his face. The ride director let you on and you finally let go to get on. Then you went up and started spinning the cage. Cal and you screaming like little girls because lets be real, fair rides are scary. Once off you started laughing uncontrollably. "What's so funny?" Cal asked smiling wide. "You- you should have-" you were struggling through laughs. " you shouldve heard your screams!" You finally got out. Cal's face dropped into a mopy face playfully but he couldnt hide the smile still playing at his lips. "Yeah, well... It was scary." He fake grumbled. "Awe, come on, honey." You emphasized the pet name the way he had before. "It wasnt that bad." You smiled at his blush laughing a little. "Not as fun on the other side, huh, honey?" "Actually." Cal quickly grabbed your hand pulling you up to him into a close embrace. "I don't mind." He smirked at your squeal and stared at you. Your faces only inches apart, you started blushing like mad. "C-Cal.." You whispered, suddenly forgetting the world around you and not remembering to call him Gabriel. "Y/n.." He whispered back as he stared into your eyes and inched closer. Right when he was an inch away someone ran into you, knocking you out of Cal's arms. "S-sorry." They mumbled as you stood up with Cal's help. You checked your phone to make sure it didnt break when you landed. Seeing the time you mumble "shit." "What?" He asked you. "It's getting late, we should probably head back.." "Oh.. Ok.. Um.. Maybe one more ride?" He asked nervously. "Yeah. One more shouldnt hurt." You smiled. His face lit up as he smiled. "Ferris wheel?" He said. "Oh, come on. You know I'm terrified of that thing!" "That?! You're terrified of that?! But not the Zipper? What the hell y/n?" He exaggerated, laughing. You nodded, "The zipper is scary on purpose and has a whole ass cage around it. The ferris wheel is scary on accident and does not have a cage around it." You said matter of factly. "Oh come on..." He thought for a second. "I'll protect you." He grabbed your hand gently, stirring all those feeling up again, making you blush. "O-ok.." Cal held your hand the entire time and made you laugh and smile all the while. "This isnt so bad. Kinda pretty actually." You stated once stopped at the top. Unbeknownst to you Cal was absolutely staring right at you, not daring to look out at the scenery or anything. "Beautiful." He whispered. You smiled. "Yeah, it is beautiful." Then the ride started going down one by one and your face twisted into one of terror. Quickly Cal noticed and wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close to his chest gently. It was like immediate comfort. Once off you both started walking to the car. Cal smoothly grabbed your hand in a way that didnt even make you blink. He opened your door and helped you up into your jeep. "Thanks, but you didnt have to help me." "I know." He smiled sweetly at you.

On the way home you pulled over about 5 minutes from the house. "What's wrong? Why'd you pull over?" Cal asked, worriedly. You sighed and yawned. "You know I just don't feel like driving." You smiled at him. His eyes widened and he smiled big. "Wait. Are you serious?" You just nodded smiling and then unbuckled getting out of the car and switching sides with him. To say the rest of the ride home was long and bumpy would be an understatement. But it made Cal really happy, even if he did almost drive into the ditch twice.

~That night~

Everyone had gone to sleep. Well almost everyone. You could still hear Cal moving around his room right now. Bored out of your mind you went and made 2 hot chocolates and popcorn then went up to Cal's room. You knocked quietly as to not wake anyone else up. Cal opened the door and looked at you with both shock and curiosity. "What's this?" He asked with one eyebrow raised. "Hot chocolate and a movie?" You smiled at him. "Hmm. Ok, honey." He moved to the side while also helping you with the snacks. You blushed at the nickname, thinking of earlier when he almost kissed you. You sat on his bed getting comfy. "Cal, why do you have it so cold in here?" "What do you mean? Its the same in here as every other room." "Yeah, well, you also have a fan on and the ceiling fan. Like what the hell?" He chuckled, shrugging his shoulders. "I get hot when i sleep." He sat down next to you, grabbing the remote. "What do you want to watch?" He asked grabbing a piece of popcorn and poping it in his mouth.

~end of movie~

Cal looked over at you and saw you were asleep on his shoulder. He smiled blushing lightly. "You're so beautiful." He whispered, moving a strand of hair from your face. "Mmm.." You stirred from sleep and looked up at him. Yawning you asked "Did you say something?" "Yeah..." He whispered again. "Why are we whispering?" You whispered back, waking a little more from your cat nap. "Cal?" You asked, realizing his hand was on your face and his big beautiful eyes were staring into yours. "Can I kiss you?" He asked in hush tone as if his voice would scare you. All you could do was nod a yes once, staring back into his eyes. He leaned in slowly and kissed you with the most care and passion you could ever imagine, so much so that it took your breath away even though it was relatively a short kiss. When he pulled away he rested his forehead on yours, his eyes still closed. "Can I do that again?"

Pronouns using: she/her,

Warnings: violence, Catcalling, racism, soft kisses, hand holding, lovesick, protective Steve.

It was fall the perfect season. Y/n just loved taking strolls and listening to her walkman, earbuds in and feeling the cool breeze sway her hair. And it’s exactly what she’s doing right now. Walking out of her home and seeing orange leaves everywhere, pumpkins set up in her neighbors porches faces cared into them. The strange smell of cold she smells when she breathes in gives her comfort.

Steve insisted on giving y/n a ride to school but y/n just kept declining him and saying she would rather walk to school. Though Steve chose to go pick her up in his car anyways even tough she didnt know that. As she was walking down the street on the side walk a car coming up behind her stopping on the stop sign. She could see the convertible with the top off 4 boys on it from high school, the popular crew that Steve used to hang out with. The only boy she knew in that group was Tommy.

She kept walking straight not looking at them, although she didnt want to even be near them she couldnt walk any other way. As she was walking she came near the car, all the boys turned their head. One of them whistiled at her, she pretended she didnt hear them since she had her earbuds in. She sped up her pace almost reaching the stop sign and then she can turn at the corner. "Hey sweetheart!" one of them yelled.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" "I bet she cant wait to go back to her country!" Y/n stopped her steps at that comment. "Hey come on man what the hell." She recognized Tommys voice says that.

"Oh so she can hear us?" Y/n turned around facing them now, trying not to looked pissed off.

There was another car coming down the street, Y/n didnt dare to move her eyes from them. Not responing back one of the boys decided to open their mouthg again.

"Oh wait she cant understand us, Hablas english?" He says in a joking manner not even being able to pronounce the word correctly.

All of them started laughing like little kids though Tommy looked like he wasnt enjoing this.

"Oh I understand perfectly, nomas estan como pinche pendejos aqui." All of them stopped trying hard not to look confused and looked at eachother trying to figure out what she said Tommy snickered at that.

"You understand that sweetheart?" Y/n smiled at them srcastically but that pissed them off.

"You think youre so smart you bitch?" when he finshed that sentence a car door was heard being slammed harshed behind them.

"I think you should watch your mouth asshole, dosent your mommy teach you manners?" You turn your head to see your beautiful boyfriend.

"Oh look if it isnt Steve Harrington sorry man i just found your bitch wondering around." and with that Steve launched himself at the boy that sits at the passanger seat and punched him square at the face. All the boys shouted with woahs but not daring to stop the fight wanting to see how it ends. Steve grabs his collar and drags him up to his face "Now youre gonna apoligoze to the pretty lady yeah? And make it sound heartfelt if not ill beat your ass right here right now infront of your little friend group, you got that?"

The boy nodded scared with his lip dripping with blood. Steve lets him go and walks over to you. "I-I'm very sorry ma'am forgive me for my horrible actions." the boy gulped and looked at Steve for a split second and the tunred around and looked at Tommy.

"Drive lets go." He told him, "Nah I think im enjoying this"

"Drive for gods sake!!" He says witha more panicked voice

And with that they were off, Steve turned to you and gave you the most loveable hug ever, he wrapped his arms over your shoulders, bringing your head to his chest and holding you like you were something fragile. You wrapped your arms around his waist and his chin resting on your head. You stayed there for a little while enjoying eachothers warmth.

When you separated you took your hands cupping his face with them and slightly made him looked down with you on his tippy toes, his eyes looking at you with so much love and a little smile he has dazed by you. You looked at him and got closer to his face and started to attack him with kisses all on his face not leaving one spot without a kiss. He didnt move letting you do it, letting out some giggles.

When you finished and pulled back "I love you" you said

"And I love you more." Steve said now arms in your hips and yours on his chest. "I dont think thats possible"

"Okay well it is come on now were gonna be late" Steve said walking towards his car holding you hand. "Were still not finished with this coversation," you pouted jokingly

"Get in the car amor." Steve open the car door for you and you blushed at the nickname.

You get in without a complaint when he gets in the car on the drivers seat he says "I'm always walking with you from now on." he grabs your hand and you look at him and smile

" I guess..." You roll your eyes and sigh in a joking manner.

A/n- HOPE YALL LIKE IT! Muchos besos <3 requests are open!

[pbandjesse]

My allergies are kicking off and I am exhausted. I had wanted to participate in house projects with James this evening but instead I have just been. Stuck here on the couch. Firstly I was freezing. Then I was just. So tired. Ugh. I will try to go to bed earlier tonight.

I didn't even sleep poorly. I would get woken up a few times. James pulled a lot of our blankets over themselves away from me. And I was cold. But it was fine. I was not thrilled about waking up but I was fine. I laid with James for a few extra minutes. But I would get up and things would be okay.

I asked James to make the bed with the. Blanket turned side ways so that we would have more length across both of us. And I hope that that works.

I would get dressed and felt okay. I really loved how my hair looked last night but of course it wasnt the same when I woke up. I sort of got it to a place I liked but I was still struggling today. I don't know what's up with me but I'm trying to be kinder to myself.

I left here earlier then I thought I would. I got a good hug from James before I left. And I got to see the pretty pink trees outside our house. Our tree hasn't bloomed yet and I'm curious what kind of tree it is. There seems to be a few of the pinks and them the rest may be the same kind but I do not know what kind they are. It will be fun to see how the neighborhood looks in different seasons.

I had a really nice drive to camp. No traffic at all. I listened to an album I loved when I was 12. And was just in a good mood.

I stuck to my morning plan and went to sweep top bar. Which took about a half hour. I flipped some mattresses and tried to make it look nice. And then I went to the office to go have my breakfast.

I would watch a TikTok that made me cry. About a girl and her dad having a really powerful connection over one specific song and he just passed away and it was just. A lot. I did not want to be teary when other people came in so I had to pull myself together.

Sarah would come in a little after 9. She had her own breakfast and we would start attacking our list of chores for the open house.

While Sarah would go work on cleaning the fort, I would design some table signs and then laminate then. The laminator did not work amazing but I ran all my signs through it twice. And headed out into the world.

I went over to the pioneers first and cleaned up the fire pit area. Moved the grill back in place. Fold red d the blue tarp. Picked up trash. It looks better. I also fixed a part of the fence and I think it looks good.

I would go and set up tables in the lodge. And clean the bathrooms. I was getting a lot done.

I started cleaning the signs outside. But I am short and could only reach half way. Which looked very funny. I got a lot of the green stuff off of the bottom halves though. And we would go with the gator later and I would stand on the back and we were able to reach two of the 4 signs.

I would go find Sarah in the fort. She was finishing up sweeping. I would help sweep the bathroom and we would finish up pretty easy.

We drove the gator to the Alaskans. I worked on the bathrooms while she swept. We had an excellent divide and conquer system and we got so much accomplished.

I would go over to tipis and picked up some stuff and tried to make it look nice. And since we were going to have our lunch break next anyway I texted Sarah I would meet her at the office. And I went for a little walk.

I walked down to the Glen to see if any of the frog eggs looked like anything yet. But nope. Still just dots. I'll keep checking. I want to see the tadpoles in there.

I continued the walk and went through and found some mushrooms and things and it was great. Just a really lovely walk.

I would have my lunch and me and Sarah both agreed we were so tired. So we took a long break before we would do anything else.

While I had my little break I would eat and watch videos. I did some research about cabinet colors to match with our pink wall. It was nice.

We would go back out and finished our last tasks. Used the gator as a ladder and cleaned the signs. We finished moving some beds. And I was proud of us for all of the hard work. We had lots of laughs driving around on the gator. It was a beautiful day. And even if I am feeling really self conscious I was still having a lot of fun.

We decided to go visit the horses. I hadn't met the new horse. And he is so sweet. We walked through the very muddy field and said hello to everyone. Have lots of pets and cuddles. And when we got to the bottom of the hill we saw a school bus pull up. And it was Aubrey! And she climbed the fence and starts walking and we're just standing there waving. And she finally noticed us and we were all laughing. We would tease eachother and walked up to her house together. She's a good kid.

We would head back to the office and checked in with Alexi about everything we accomplished. And it was nice that she was really happy with us and that made me feel nice. There was some stuff we couldn't do. Like putting the tent back together at homestead. But we did so much and I'm very proud of us.

Heather would ask me to design a job flyer. We need ropes specialists and apparently we are struggling to find them. I had fun making it and Heather would go in and change some of the copy which was fine with me, mine was mostly a place holder. We did laugh really hard when we realized that I wrote "flaying squirrel" instead of "flying squirrel" oops. Flaying a squirrel would be a good camp skill though probably.

I finished that up and when Heather said she was happy with it I was like. Okay! I'm going home! I will see you all on Sunday!

And I headed right home. It was a pretty good drive back, some traffic. Some people driving stupid. But I got home at 430 and got a pretty good parking spot.

When I got inside James wasn't home yet. I would bring the mail in. I closing s random Amazon package of pens? That neither of us ordered?? Very weird.

I went to put away some stuff. And found a jewelery box on the kitchen island with a necklace from James. That was originally supposed to be a Christmas gift but had gotten lost. But they found it and I was so happy. It's so sparkly.

I would go upstairs to take some photos of my possible outfits for Uganda. Which I'm still pretty unsure about but I'm getting clearer I think. And waited for James to come home.

When they got home they would play one round of their football video game. And then jumped right into tasks. I was kind of falling apart though. I got cuddled up on the couch and told James about the day. And they made me dumplings for dinner.

They would work on hanging the art I laid out some the shelf in the living room. And they got a lot of that done before the drill died and needed to be charged.

They would jump into painting the stairwell. And I would just be a little potato on the couch. But James said it was fine and just asked for my input when they needed it.

Now they are finishing up the hanging of pieces in the living room and it looks great. I'm so excited for how everything is coming together.

Now though I think I want to get a shower and get ready to sleep. Tomorrow I am hoping to go to thrift stores and possibly get the wood to build my skinny bookshelf. But we will see how the day unfolds. I just hope I can feel peaceful.

I have been feeling kind of stressed because I feel pulled in so many directions. Like I'm finally feeling better and so now it feels like everyone wants me to be doing everything and I just cannot. I need to be alone and I don't want to hurt my more extroverted friend's feelings. But man. I am tired inside. Walking around alone at camp today helped a lot. And I hope tomorrow helps too.

Sleep well everyone. I love you all. Goodnight

JUST HEAR ME OUT:

Imagine, in the end, Caroline and Chucky are cornered. And they purpose a game, if Chucky wins, they all die. If they win, they get to kill Chucky. The game? King's Corner. Real simple, really easy. And the rules are to get through three rounds without quitting, they don't even have to win.

Seems too good to be true, right?

They decide to play it, since they'll willingly have Caroline on their side. And Jake decides to be the one who plays with Chucky, Devon watching out to see if he cheats. But before the third round, Caroline complains that she's thirsty and gets drinks for everyone before the next round. Chucky said that you always have drinks and snacks during a card game, or that was how his family played.

But, surprise surprise, Chucky drugged the drinks. But not in a way you'd expect, it didn't kill them, but put them under enough drugs to think that they had all made this up and they were in a psych ward together, and Chucky was their therapist and Caroline was his daughter that came to visit.

And Chucky convinces Jake that his dad died due to an accident, and he wasnt really killed by a doll. Jake just didnt want to fault his own father for his death, that's where the idea of Chucky came from. Something to blame. All this time, Jake didnt want to understand why Chucky was doing this, all he wanted to know was what he was.

And for a second, he almost gets Jake to quit the game.

But Devon steps in, he immediately recognizes it when Chucky says "You need to quit this game, Jake." and prevents him from doing so by knocking Jake to the ground, shattering a glass cup.

He picks up the largest piece, but all Chucky says is "Put that down, little man. You're going to hurt yourself."

And Devon's like "Jake, listen to me, okay? Don't believe it. Chucky always lies, you know this! And if...if you believe him, that means all our time spent together has been nothing but a story you created! I'm just character, nothing more. Lexy, Jake, if you truly don't care...then nothing I do can affect you, right?"

He turns to the two, raising his sleeve. "Snap out of it, you two. Please." And then, trigger warning, he slits one of his wrists, getting blood all over the floor while Jake just lays there, and Lexy just sits, watching.

"Wake up, guys. Please." And soon, Devon's on the floor too. And Caroline just walks up to him, softly petting his head. "You poor, poor thing. Never recognized, always overlooked. Your love isn't enough to save them." And it sounds like she actually has pity for him, before she looks at Jake. "Jake, do you quit the game?"

There's no response, as Chucky smiles manically. "That means...we win, Caroline. We win!" And he's laughing, and it seems like they actually won, before Jake reaches for Devon's hand.

"Dev." He began. "I want...I want to be able to say "Good night" to you tonight."

Devon smiles. "I want to be able to watch a horror movie with you guys."

"I want to see your faces tomorrow." Lexy tells them. "And I...I want to be able...to maybe make a tiktok with you guys."

"One of these days," Jake begins. "I'm gonna take you guys to an art show."

"And I want to make breakfast tomorrow." Devon says. "And I wanna hear Lexy backseat cooking with me."

"Even arguing sometimes would be pretty nice." Lexy laughs.

You can see Caroline's face drop, as Chucky just furrows his brows, not knowing what the hell is going on. That's before Jake sits up. "I'm gonna protect you guys. Like you guys protected me." He looks to Chucky. "I don't quit. Let the games continue, Chucky."

Jake sees two tears fall down Chucky's face, and everything is back to normal again. The cards are still on the table, and they're still in the White House.

Caroline nods, as Lexy helps Devon sit up. "You shouldn't have done that, you could've bled out!" She scolds, and Devon just shrugs, before Caroline hands Lexy a couple of papertowels. "Here," She says. "This will help."

Lexy takes it skeptically as Chucky just watches them. "How, utterly, sickeningly...magnificent." He says, and Jake turns to him, and Chucky has a sad smile. "That was pretty moving." His smile drops. "For their sake, let's finish this, Jake."

Jake nods, and the third round begins.

Thoughts?

This was so wild but so interesting, I loved it!!

Kinky Caption: Tabby Time

Tabby Time

“This was too much” Tabitha thought as she saw the giant plush bear her boyfriend, Matt had sent her as a present, the note on the bow said “For you to snuggle with when I’m out of town”. Tabitha rolled her eyes. Her boyfriend had a habit of sending her gifts that were childish, coloring books, plushies and tea sets with bright colors. He said he wanted her to be able to relax and not have to be a ‘serious whiskey drinking lawyer’ all the time and the gifts were to help her get in touch with her softer feminine side. Tabitha thought he was undermining her and if he wanted a childish doe eye piece of fluff to take care of he should find some bimbo to suck his cock and take his money.

Lacking any better option she dragged the bear into her apartment placing it on the left side of her bed, before getting into bed on the other side placing the bear’s arm under her head she quickly fell asleep. 

The next morning Tabitha woke up feeling refreshed and strong. Rolling onto her back she found that sometime during the night she had begun cuddling and spooning the oversized bear getting dressed and ready for work Tabitha found she was so energized she almost didn't need any coffee to get her day going and went out the door with a pep in her step.

“Work is hell” Tabitha thought as she kicked off her heel and poured herself a drink. Walking into her bedroom to change she saw the bear still in her bed where she had left it. She got into bed and pulled the bear around her. It was heavy but the weight wasn't suffocating as she had imagined it would be. Instead it was soothing protective even she decided this bear could stay at least until her boyfriend got back from Hong Kong next week.

As the week went by Tabitha found she was looking forward to bedtime more and more the giant teddy bear becoming the perfect sleeping companion thought it seemed to be bending her to her boyfriend way of thinking on Wednesday she found herself watching cartoons something she had not done in years and on friday she even took out one of the coloring books he had gotten her as she listened to music and drank a glass of wine saturday morning came with some bad news her boyfriend was going to be overseas another two weeks  “But daddy” she whined “i miss you” Tabitha’s eyes went wide “Daddy?” she thought he smiled at her “I see you got my gift” 

“What are you talking about” she said 

The bear: it has a prototype of a speaker I've been working on to plant subliminal messages like this: it's Tabby Time '' At his words a wave of calm washed over Tabitha she could feel her body visabley relax there was nothing to worry about Daddy would take care of everything. She could just color in her book an watch Tv something happy and simple but she had to get changed first she looked at her body these were Tabitha clothes and she wasnt Tabitha she was Tabby she took off the professional blouse make up and pants swapping for a pair of Short shorts and a babydoll tshirt that was almost a crop top on her and spent the rest of the day indulging her every whim she even masturbated twice that made her miss Daddy she wanted him to play with her and to fuck her. That night she went to bed cuddling Mr Bear. He was so soft and comfy and made her feel so yummy. The next morning her phone rang. It was Daddy! She picked it up with glee “Good MOrning Daddy she sang”

“Good Morning Princess Im sorry to do this but Tabitha it's time for work”

Tabitha’s Eyes widened as the hypnotic spell was lifted from her mind anger coursed through her body “What did you do to me you bastard! She yelled. 

“Wait just listen to me a second he protested How do you feel”

“Pissed at you beyond words”

“Fair. but how did you sleep last night”

That gave her pause she slept great in fact she cant remember being more relaxed

“I'm sorry for not telling you but I knew you would never agree otherwise and I just wanted you to have a space that was fully relaxed and have no worries a place for your body to heal itself when you need it most.”

 “Fine but did you have to make it so childish?”

“I didn't do that part. That was all you, I guess you feel most relaxed as a Little.

“A what?” 

“I'll explain more when I get home. You need to get to work, and I need to go to bed but I'll call you Friday.”

The following Sunday Matt entered his apartment and found it a mess. In fact it looked liked a child had been on a rampage for a full two days without supervision. Crayons and cereal were strewn everywhere, the tv was playing some childish Saturday morning cartoon. “Maybe leaving Tabby in charge over the weekend when he wasn't home to supervise had been a bad idea” Matt thought, as he entered the bedroom he found his girlfriend decked out in full childish bimbo wear. A pink bra and a pair of tight pj bottoms with cartoons on them she looked up from the large bear that sat on his side of the bed “Daddy your home” she exclaimed, “Are you ready for Tabby time?” .
