stubborn.

request(s) -> Hii! I love your Gray Fullbuster x reader fics. They are so great!! Could I request then something like female reader goes on a mission and comes back being hurt and tries to hide it, but Gray saw through her and he is so worried about her, because they like each other so he corners her and help her. With a fluff, maybe even a kiss? Thank you in advance!! <3 + can you write a childhood bsf to lovers story for gray or sting from fairy tail? Nothing too specific, but also wanted to say I love your stories <3 😖

requested by -> @shogun0wa

pairing: gray fullbuster x f!reader

gray could tell something was wrong, even if you were desperately trying to pretend otherwise.

frankly, he didn't even see why you bothered—stubborness perhaps? he'd known you long enough, since the both of you were children, to see that the smile on your lips was forced and feigned. years spent attached at the hip gave him the insight others wouldn't notice.

so, yeah, he guessed - stubborness it definitely was.

chin resting in the palm of his hand, gray's eyes watch you closely as you talk with erza and lucy. you're less animated than usual, letting the two other girls do most of the talking for you as you simply listen and nod. if either lucy or erza noticed something was wrong, it was easy to tell you'd brushed their concern off with a simple excuse of being tired.

the same excuse you've used with gray since you'd returned from your solo mission and he'd noticed something was off.

anytime he'd confronted you, you'd been skillfully adept at avoiding him. gray would barely get a word out edgewise before you'd slip off from with some excuse or another of mira needing you, or lucy wanting your help with something.

things of the sort.

gray's patience was waring thin and with it, his concern was overwhelming him to the point he could barely function normally. he could see the paleness to your skin, all colour leaving your cheeks and the way your eyes would narrow and your lips would purse when you thought no one was looking.

it was clear you were in pain.

gray couldn't understand why you were trying to convince otherwise.

"i'll talk to you both later, okay?"

pulled from his thoughts, gray straightens when he sees you standing from the table, offering a small wave erza and lucy's way. the smile at you in response, each wishing you goodbye but gray's only zone in on the way your face, for the splittest second, twists in agony before you school your expression.

that was it. gray was going to get to the bottom of this.

standing up himself, gray is careful to be quiet, hanging back a minute after you move towards the guild doors before following you. he exits a moment after you do, you still blissfully unaware, and with an eased movement, gray's hand locks around your wrists and tugs you gently towards the alley beside the guild.

you stumble after him, a whimper leaving your lips — gray does feel guilty for causing you pain, but he figures this'll help prove his point.

"gray! what are you—"

"where?"

he doesn't bother letting you finish your accusation — he was tired of your pointless stubbornness. all he wanted to do was help you.

huffing, you glare up at gray; "where, what?"

"where does it hurt?"

your face falls at that, glare dissipating in seconds as you stare blankly up at gray. you shift against the wall he's cornered you against, gray's body trapping you with no escape as you squirm uncomfortably.

gray's eyes, however, zone in on the way your hand clutches at your side.

"there?" he asks, raising a brow as he reaches for your hand. "that's where it hurts?"

"gray—"

"enough." he cuts in once more, voice sharper. his eyes fall shut in frustration before turning to meet your own, gaze unwavering. gray's patience is gone at this point and perhaps he'll regret being so sharp with you later, but for now it's necessary to get the truth out of you.

like he said, you were too damn stubborn.

"i don't know why you're trying to pretend you're not in pain, but i can tell, okay?" he huffs, exasperated. "i know you."

you blink up at him, face easing.

"i... it's really not that bad."

gray just shakes his head; "let me see."

you warm faintly at that, but knowing gray won't back down, especially not now, you oblidge to his request. slowly, your hands move to the hem of your tank, slowly pulling it upwards until your stomach is bare. you tuck your shirt just under your breasts, feeling vulnerable in an entirely new way as you avoid gray's gaze.

in another light, gray would be just as embarrassed. there's no room for that, however, when he see's the large bruise across your ribs; your skin is discoloured with a terrible yellowish-purple.

honestly, gray's surprised you've been able to walk at all with a injury that size.

"why didn't you get wendy to heal you?" gray hisses, concerned, as he reaches for you. you tense as his cold but familiar touch falls on usually untouched skin, biting your lip as he gently prods to bruise, wincing slightly in pain. "y/n, this is bad."

"it's not that bad," you force out, huffing.

"yes, it is," gray argues, sharp eyes falling back on your own. "it looks like you could even have a broken rib given how bruised it is."

you just frown.

"why?" gray sighs, finally pulling away as you slowly let your shirt fall back down. "why hide it?"

it takes you a moment to reply, looking down at your own feet and desperately avoiding gray's piercing gaze. gray almost thinks you won't speak and goes to ask again, until he hears your soft and mumbled voice. "i didn't want to be a bother."

"...what?"

"i didn't want to be a bother!" you repeat, this time louder; your voice cracks in desperation as you turn to gray with a tear-filled gaze. he stares blankly back at you, stunned. "i'm always getting hurt on missions and everyone is always having to help me... you most of all! so i took this mission by myself to prove i'm strong, only i got hurt like i always do!"

you finish with a gasp, hands pressing against your wound as you twist yourself uncomfortably.

gray doesn't say anything at first. he frowns, shoulders falling and watches as you desperately try to hold back the tears that threaten to slip past your eyes, he thinks about the fact that you think so lowly of yourself.

do you really think that's what the others think? what he thinks?

spurned on by the guilt of ever letting you think that way about yourself and desperate to rectify his own foolish mistake, gray ignores the nerves bundling in his chest and leans forward with a burst of desperate confidence. he grabs your chin, tugging you towards him gently as he lets his eyes flutter shut and presses his lips against your own.

you tense at the action and gray fears the worst, moving to pull away, but then a second later you're easing, hands slowly moving to shift around his own as you lean into the kiss.

he pulls back a second later, blinking down at you.

you stare up at him; "what was that for?"

"to prove to you," he whispers.

"prove to me what?"

"that none of what you said is true," he urges, cupping your cheeks. "your strength is your strength, and you are a vital member to both fairy tail and the team. if anyone says you aren't, i'll personally show them otherwise."

gray watches as your lips part and your eyes soften with something warm.

"gray..."

"it doesn't matter how much you get hurt, i will always be there to help you." he continues, letting the truth pour out of him with vulnerabilty he's unused to. "all that matters to me is that you're okay. i need you, y/n. so please don't ever hide something like this from me again, okay? please?"

slowly, you nod.

"okay," he nods, some of that blind confidence wavering as he feels his cheeks burn with the reality of his confession. "n-now, can we please take you to see wendy?"

you nod once more, but the small smile that curls onto your lips is undeniable. then, you slowly lower his hands from your cheeks, holding tight to his right one as you thread your fingers through it, squeezing.

gray eases at your assurance, a grin curling onto his lips.

he guesses, when he truly thought about it, he was just a stubborn — it's why the two of you got along so well.

2023 Writing in review (Today's promptmas at the bottom)

Long one inc- 

Another year has come and gone. Or something. 

Promptmas was a thing. Kinda fun I think. Hopefully (even though a few are still left) everyone liked their lil promptmas fics!

Burning WhiteRose and Cinwin were far more requested than I thought they would be, so that's neat. I will say Hailstorm (WR+Nora) is the most unique pairing I was asked to do tied with JBS so that's fun.

Not sure why I decided to start them like two weeks before December instead of any other time, but hey. Getting sick kinda blew, and means Shattered Moon will be finished come new year. Apologies BottledLemon for that one, but instead of the story being maybe 10k the first chapter alone was about 8k. 

My inability to be compact strikes once again. 

Plans for next year are to write more, and get better at writing, which is an ongoing process. Also fun would be to get ever closer to getting DWR out of rarepair status (we’re almost to 75 as of the time of writing this which is 3/8th of the way there!).

It wouldn’t stop me from writing them because I have issues, but hey them is the breaks. 

Favorite short non DWR story this year? 

Probably Shot to the Heart 

Something about it just being a quick want a nail with a start and end point was fun with a large amount of fun work to do fleshing her out as more than an extra Jaune harem girl. 

Plans for next year include a lot of work. In theory I’d like to finish ALL of my current WIP’s which leads me to a question. Do you prefer the random update schedule like before? Or do you/would you prefer it to hyper focus on one story ala Altered Paths or In Plain Sight where I focus about 75% of the story updates on a fic until it’s done then go to the next one?

Do you have any preferences for fics you'd like me to update first from my WIP's? Do you have a pairing you'd like to see (leave this in the comments por favor)

Next to last: Out of all the promptmas fics which, if any would you liked to see turned into short stories? Take your pic, and leave a comment or reblog with the answer so I can count it.

Finally for those of you that do read the fics what would you say I should work on improving most? Pacing, plot, dialogue, etc.

Goals for the next year are to get back into shape and hit my ee dan belt (kinda slacking on it tbh), write more, and improve the writing. Probably try to save money too, but I'll just end up comming more stuff for my goobers.

Have Tiny Samus wishing you a happy holidays and new year from her favorite gift box.

Promtpmas 28- When Doing it Wrong Goes Right-

Weiss had always known Ruby was special and strange. She never seemed to do anything right, or at least right by her fathers standards.

So in that regard she shouldn't have been surprised when she didn't even manage to die right.

Have some girls for the road!

Yess omg. His character in PotC is a big part of the fic I've got planned for it, too. I've only seen him in that series and The Talented Mr. Ripley. I should watch more of his work.

He's got that, like, teacher that you're hot for thing going on. Know what I mean?

Why wouldn't you date?

WAIT I NEVER SAW SPY KIDS so I'm going off of what I gathered from the Wiki.

(Didn't know Alan Cumming was in the movie lookin hot as hell. I'mma watch it because everything I've seen of this movie is nothing but gold.)

I wouldn't date Fegan Floop because his name is Fegan Floop. Like bro lmao. Come on.

Send me a character and I'll tell you why I wouldn't date them!

Yandere!Melina Vostokoff x Fem!Reader Headcanons

(For @mommymilks - Happy Birthday, boo!)

SFW

No surprise here, but Melina would absolutely use her tech to keep tabs on you at all times. She'd always know where you are, who you're with, and everything about anyone you know.

She'd love to call you little pet names - my love, my darling, my pet, etc. But she would always preface it with, "my."

If someone gets too close or threatens to keep you from her, Melina wouldn't be above using the mind control substance to keep them in line. If they continue, she has a lot of tools at her disposal to get rid of them.

She's also not above using it on you, if need be. She'd struggle with it for a while, but she'd rationalize her decision by reminding herself that she's doing it to keep you safe. To keep you hers.

NSFW

Melina would show her obsession with you through body worship. She'd touch and kiss every part of you, reminding you of how beautiful you are.

She'd be into edging you a lot. She'd want to prolong the experience as long as possible; the two of you alone together, you calling out her name. Absolute bliss.

Melina would also enjoy orgasm denial. Not only would it tie into edging, it'd give her a reason to praise you - calling you her good girl when she finally lets you finish. "Come for me, my darling."

She can be a mild exhibitionist - depending on where you are/where you're going. She'd love to use a remote controlled vibrator on you in public on occasion. Just knowing that she can get you off while others are around, wishing they could even touch you, would bring her great pleasure. Plus, you'd look so cute trying to hide what's happening.

My #1 post of 2022

Imagine...

Reuniting with your childhood sweetheart, Willy Wonka, during the factory tour.

(For @groovy-lady)

"Y/N, you simply won't believe the news!" Your friend, Mrs, Bucket, chirped excitedly as the two of you met up to run errands together. The two of you had worked together previously, and she became a good friend to you despite the infrequency of your contact.

"What is it, Hellen?"

"Charlie's found it - the last golden ticket! Isn't it exciting?" She was more animated than you'd seen her in a long time, and she continued quickly. "I was thinking - and forgive me if this is too bold, but, I was thinking... perhaps you could take him for the tour?" And then you saw it - the mischievous glint in her eye.

Hellen knew a secret that you'd told few others - you'd known Willy Wonka when the two of you were children, and had been an item for much of your youth.

"I understand if you can't, or don't want to. I just thought... Oh, I don't know. Maybe it's silly." You told her you would think about it, and she didn't mention it again as you went onto your errands.

After that, it seemed as if you somehow saw more of his name everywhere you went; advertisement and news articles. Of course it was the fervor around the contest, but nonetheless you couldn't escape the ghost of your past. It was a pleasant ghost, at least.

There was a form to send in before the tour, giving the names of the chaperones. You'd kept it visible, and quickly penned your name down before the deadline.

It all happened so fast - Hellen asked, you agreed, and in the blink of an eye you were standing at the gates with Charlie by your side. And then the moments dragged until Wonka himself finally emerged. He looked very different, of course, but yet somehow still the same. The other guardians were quick to rush up to introduce themselves and their children, but he hurried through them until he got to you.

"And Y/N. I was looking forward to seeing you most of all. You do remember me, don't you?"

The candy maker lit up when you told him that you did remember him, grinning wide and looking much like the boy you'd known long ago.

"I named one of my chocolates after you, you know. And I'll tell you a secret - it's my most favorite creation." He paused only a moment before continuing, "come, I've got such marvelous things to show you."

He held out his arm for you to take, paying no mind to the other chaperones as he lead the group inside.

Current Open Word Docs

It's not that I'm not writing these days, it's that I'm not finishing anything.

Cobra Kai

1. When there’s friction making it difficult to be co-senseis, Johnny wishes it was easier to understand how to deal with Daniel. His wish gets granted Scrooge-style by Miyagi and he gets hit with all the highlights of what made Daniel who he is. current word count - 1039

2. For the kink meme prompt about Kreese being of questionable morality but drawing the line at rape/child molestation, finding out Terry raped Daniel in '85, and being absolutely livid about it. current word count - 1538

3. for a kink meme prompt about Miguel being self-conscious about his scars. current word count - 611

4. for a kink meme prompt wanting fluffy Johnny teaching Daniel something un-karate related. current word count - 1643

5. Halloween inspired. Johnny dies and gets a chance to redo his life from the point he thinks it went wrong. Spoiler alert: he's wrong. Luckily, he gets a little help from a universe-displaced, bored Archangel. (mild spn xover). Current word count - 315

6. Mob AU. Daniel is in LA looking to expand Family interests to the West Coast. He probably shouldn't be mixing business with pleasure, but Johnny Lawrence is very pretty. current word count - 650

1. Post-Episode: Rare Species. Jaskier goes home to Lettenhove. He hates it just as much as he remembers. current word count - 292

2. ESO xover. 832

(I have another 3 or 4 ideas with less than 100 words each)

The Old Guard

1. In a world where your soulmates first words are scrawled across your body, Nicolo de Genova and Yusuf al-Kaysani’s parents have very different reactions to the foreign letters etched on their sons bodies. current word count - 435

2. Quynh turns Booker into a cat. current word count - 607

3. After they're safely away from Merrick's Nicky finally lets himself fall apart. Nile and Booker find out some unpleasant bits of their older brother's past. current word count - 2067

Star Trek

2. 5 Times someone found out Ianto Jones is immortal and one person he told. (highlander xover). current word count - 1427

3. In the aftermath of Canary Wharf, two immortals commiserate. current word count - 1407

4. Another Immortal!Ianto fic. current word count - 1986

Merlin

1. modern AU with Asexual Arthur who falls head over heels for Aromantic Merlin. Twice. You'd think he'd learn the first time. This one isn't the exactly the happiest thing I've ever written and is definitely shaded heavily with life experience so I don't know if I'll ever post it even if I did ever finish it. >_> current word count - 2790

NHL

1. Request from a friend. Flower finds out that Sidney's never been kissed and asks Vero if he can change that. current word count - 810

Leverage

1. X-Men xover - the Leverage crew are mutants. I have four different fics in this verse, though I might just combine them at some point. their word counts are - 1156, 546, 391, and 454

2. Hawaii 5-0 xover - when the law fails them and some rich scumbags threaten people he feels responsible for, Daniel calls in reinforcements. 600

X-Men

1. the file is literally called 'no prison for mags' so. word count - 1418

(I also have another 3 or 4 ideas that are under 100 words)

I didn't add any of my MCU or Agents of SHIELD fics because I haven't actually touched any this year that I haven't already posted. All of these have gotten words in 2021. I also have a handful of Star Wars ideas that haven't gotten much actual progress beyond like... thoughts and research.

[theflyingfeeling]
