"Good morning, sweetheart." Seokmin's voice is groggy as his arms are draped over your swollen stomach, and you answer tiredly, yawning as you stretch your aching body. "Good morning, Seok."

The two of you arrived in Italy yesterday after a long plane flight and an even longer drive to get to the rented condo. Both of you spent last night shopping and seeing the town, finishing the night in the bedroom as you both watched a classic Italian romance movie before spending the rest of the night talking to each other like two high schoolers spending the night.

Now that you were five months pregnant, sleep was becoming harder and harder to come by─you were overjoyed at the fact that you got a decent sleep last night, and you couldn't help but sigh as Seokmin's plump lips pressed against your warm neck.

"How's my sweetheart?" Seokmin asked quietly, big hands ghosting over your sheer nightgown as you hummed. "I'm doing good."

"Do you know what you want to do today?" Seokmin asks softly, stepping out of bed as he stretches cutely.

His taut muscles are slightly tanned from your time at the pool yesterday, and the Italian sun highlights every dip and curve of his abs perfectly. His dark eyes catch the color of the summer sun, causing them to sparkle as his soft hair is swooped over one side of his face, highlighting the slope of his sharp nose and plump lips.

"Whatever you want to do," You look up at your husband with doe-eyes, and he's melting for you quickly, sighing as he comes back to meet you on the bed.

He watched how you stretched as well, giving it your all as you carefully adjusted your seating position. Your hands were cupped around your bulging belly, and the white nightgown brushed over your tender body in such a beautiful way, one that made Seokmin want to marry you all over again.

"I don't think you want to do whatever I want to do, baby." Seokmin laughs nervously, leaning in as he presses a kiss to your lips softly. His hands are on either side of your body, leaning over you as he stares into your eyes. Your hands go up to wrap around his bare waist, and you smile, kissing his firm chest as he smiles. "Maybe I do."

"You're going to make me go insane, sweetheart, I swear it," Seokmin shudders at your touch, and you laugh, sighing as you pat his chest. "Not if you do it first."

Seokmin backs away, laughing at your cute expression as he makes his way over to the dresser. His clothes for the two-week vacation are all tucked away, and he chooses his outfit for the day, sculpted back flexing as he closes the drawer. You're enamored with everything about your husband, and you'd die if you didn't let him know, making your way up from the bed as you follow him into the bathroom.

The massive mirror reflects your body as you follow him quietly, and he looks at the reflection, confused as he turns around to see you. "Baby? Is something wrong?" Seokmin looks so innocent as he asks you the question, and it makes you laugh, shaking your head as you sigh.

"Nothing's wrong, Min. I'm just so happy with....everything, really. I'm happy with it all." You say, and Seokmin laughs, turning on the water as he splashes his face with it.

"Are you now?" Seokmin takes his fingers under the stream of water and flicks it at you, showering you with water as you squeal happily before pausing to look at your husband.

"I am, Seokmin. Thank you." Your voice takes on a more soft, thankful tone, and Seokmin smiles, embracing you as he kisses your forehead. "Anything for you, sweetheart. Anything for you at all."

ft. isagi yoichi, itoshi rin, itoshi sae, shidou ryusei

isagi yoichi

isagi is naturally a caring boyfriend, so after your first time together, he’s all about making sure you’re okay – grabbing you water, cuddling you close, whispering sweet words in your ear. 

but when you stiffen up and look at him like he’s doing something strange, he immediately catches on. 

"what’s wrong?" he asks, concern lacing his voice. 

you hesitate before admitting, "i just… didn’t think you’d still be here." 

his heart breaks. what do you mean you didn’t think he’d be here? why would he just leave after something so intimate? 

"baby, of course i’m still here. where else would i go?" he says, holding your face so gently it makes you want to cry. 

when you explain that past partners never stayed, never held you, never took care of you, he pulls you impossibly closer. 

"that’s not love, and i love you." 

he spends the rest of the night making sure you feel cherished – wrapping you in his arms, massaging your sore muscles, kissing your forehead. he’s so soft with you, and it’s the first time you’ve ever felt truly wanted beyond the act itself. 

itoshi rin

rin isn’t the most openly affectionate guy, but after your first time together, he insists on cleaning you up, pulling you into his chest, and whispering a quiet "you good?" 

you’re just laying there, unmoving, and he notices the way your body tenses. 

"what’s with that look?" he asks, raising an eyebrow. 

"i just… didn’t think you’d stay." 

excuse him??? 

his entire face darkens as he processes what you just said. 

"what kind of assholes have you been with?" 

when you explain that no one’s ever done aftercare for you before, he literally scoffs. 

"so they just… left?" his voice is sharp, irritated, like he’s actually offended on your behalf. 

he doesn’t say much after that, but his actions speak louder than words – he presses you against him, arms wound tightly around your body, refusing to let you go. 

"get used to this," he mumbles against your skin, his tone softer now. "i’m not them. i’d never do that to you." 

for the first time, you believe it.

itoshi sae

sae isn’t big on words, but after your first time together, he immediately starts taking care of you. he runs a warm towel over your body, gets you some water, and even offers to get you food. 

but you just sit there, looking completely stunned. 

"what?" he asks, confused. 

you hesitate, voice quiet when you say, "i’ve never had someone do this for me before." 

cue the slow blink. he looks at you like you just spoke another language. 

"so they just fucked you and left?" 

he says it so bluntly that you almost feel embarrassed, but he’s not trying to make you feel bad – he’s genuinely shocked and maybe a little pissed. 

"that’s not how you treat someone you care about." 

pulls you into his chest, his heartbeat steady against your ear, fingers threading through your hair in slow, soothing strokes. 

"i'm not going anywhere, got it?" his voice is softer now, but there's undeniable certainty in it. 

he refuses to let you feel like an afterthought. 

shidou ryusei

shidou is wild in bed, but aftercare is just as important to him. after your first time together, he’s all over you – peppering kisses on your skin, rubbing your back, murmuring sweet nothings. 

but then he notices how stiff you are. 

"babe, you good?" he asks, tilting his head. 

"i just… didn’t expect this." 

"expect what?" 

"i thought you'd leave." 

record scratch. 

"you what?" 

he pulls back, blinking at you like you just said the craziest thing in the world. then, his expression shifts. his usual cocky smirk replaced with something more serious.  

"who the fuck hurt you?" 

when you explain, he literally groans in frustration. "ugh, you’ve been with some real losers, huh?" 

shidou may be chaotic, but he’s not heartless. and he sure as hell isn't the type to leave someone he cares about like that. 

"you’re mine, yeah? you think i’d just hit it and quit it? nah, sweetheart. i take care of my girl." 

makes extra sure you feel loved – cuddles you so tight you can’t escape, runs his hands up and down your body, even feeds you snacks. 

"get comfy, baby. you’re stuck with me."

I NEED Kastle to become canon for my growth and development as a person

cuz if Matt and Karen become endgame, I will turn into a villain. Matt already had his chance with her, and he's gone and dated a whole bunch of other women. Karen deserves someone who wants her as desperately as Frank does!!

❛ i’m not wearing any underwear. thought you’d like to know. ❜ carmy berzatto pls

Hi Anon! ✨

Of course! This is some established relationship naughtiness at The Bear. I hope you enjoy it! 💜

It was one of the first days of fall, and probably one of the last warm days of the year. And so, you were enjoying the weather: wearing your favorite dress and cleaning your apartment with the window open to let the soft breeze in. Your phone rang, the name on the screen read Sydney 🐻.

"Hi, Syd," you greeted her with a smile.

"Hey, uh," she hesitated, the sound of a hectic kitchen in the background. "Remember you told me I could call you when Carmy was being a pain in the ass? I know it was a joke and, you know, I'm not his babysitter and you're not either. Like, I know that. But, uh-" she had a nervous tone in her voice.

"Syd, it's okay," you reassured her. "It's Saturday, I bet things are insane in the kitchen."

"You have no idea," she let out a nervous chuckle. "I seriously wouldn't even be calling if I-"

Syd was right, that you weren't Carmy's babysitter but you could probably talk some sense into him. Besides, you didn't have work today - and they'd probably give you leftovers for your troubles.

"Hey. I'm on my way," you said. "Don't worry."

"Okay, okay," Syd sighed. "I'll, uh, I'll try to chill in the meantime."

You grabbed your keys and bag... You suddenly had a sinful idea and grinned.

~

You walked through the back door, avoiding servers and chefs, mumbling 'behind' every so often like you'd seen the rest of them do. You could make out Carmy's hoarse voice between all the noise.

"This steak is fucking dead! Refire. Chefs, wake the fuck up!"

"Hey, Carm," you called him.

He turned to look at you, eyes wide and fiery. "What are you doing here?" he rasped.

"Do you have a sec?" you said with a polite smile.

"Not really. I-" he looked disoriented and frantic.

Syd stepped in, looking determined. "I'll handle it. Go."

Carmy led you inside his office, exasperation radiating from him.

"Why are you-?" he started.

"Uh, Syd called," you replied, giving him a knowing look as he closed the door behind you.

"Fuck."

"Yeah. She said you were being a pain in the ass," you leaned on his desk.

"I- uh-" he hesitated, then covered his face, red from the heat of the kitchen but also from anger and shame. "She- she was being nice. I'm being an asshole."

You sat on his desk and sighed. "Thought so."

"Huh?" he tilted his head. You had caught him by surprise.

You gestured for him to come closer, so you could talk softer and look him in the eye.

"Listen, I know it gets super loud in your head, and you get overwhelmed and you lash out," you had seen it happen once or twice. "You need to step down when that happens."

"Syd-" he avoided your gaze. "Yeah, Syd has suggested it."

"So?" you cupped his face and tilted it towards you. "Can you do that? Can you let go for ten minutes and calm the fuck down?"

He blinked hard, stressed.

"I don't know," he confessed after a moment of consideration.

"I think you can, Carm," you encouraged him. Then, you put the second, more inappropriate part of your plan in motion. You grabbed his chef whites, and brought him closer, opening your legs to accommodate him. Then you whispered: "I'm not wearing any underwear. Thought you'd like to know."

Carmy stared at you, mouth agape.

"We're in the middle of service-"

"Listen," you gestured at the door. There were no loud bangs or screams, just the normal bustle of a kitchen; if anything it was quieter than when you first entered. "Syd is handling it. The rest of the kitchen is functioning. The sky isn't falling," you grabbed his face with both hands. "Now, will you just fuck me?"

"Shit."

He leaned down to kiss you hard, all tongue and teeth, biting a little. You ran your fingers through his hair, bringing him closer, crossing your ankles behind his waist.

"I need this to be fucking fast," he rasped against your lips.

"I know," you smiled while untying his apron and unbuckling his belt.

The mere indecency of showing up to Carmy's place of work planning to fuck him had made you wet enough to take him that very moment.

"Condoms?" he asked.

You took one out of your bag and handed it to him, palming his cock impatiently through his trousers.

"Fuck, baby," he groaned, eyes rolling to the back of his head.

He lowered his trousers and boxers just enough to pull out his cock. He grabbed the back of your knees to pull you closer to the edge of his desk, something feral about him. You bunched up your dress all the way up to your hips, confirming that you were indeed bare under it. Carmy's eyes widened.

"Shit..." his fingers touched your drenched pussy. "You planned this, the whole thing."

You nodded proudly, biting on your lip when he entered you.

"Can't believe you showed up, in the middle of service-" he murmured. "Jesus... To fuck me."

"Desperate times," you touched your forehead to his, his gaze intense. He bottomed out and you covered his mouth to muffle a whine. "See? I think you need it."

That was the tiny push he craved.

He fucked you mercilessly, forceful thrusts while he grabbed your thighs hard, keeping you on the edge of the desk, right where he wanted you. His rhythm was frantic, half out of urgency and half out of anger. You kept your hand on his mouth, silencing the tirade of curses and primal groans he was blurting. Your eyes were on him, breathy pleas leaving your lips.

"Give it to me. It's okay. Please. I need you. Please," you weren't sure if he could actually hear it all but you couldn't stop, not when you were so close to your release. Your pussy tightened around his cock, pulsing.

His grip on you faltered, eyebrows raising as he looked at you for confirmation.

You nodded, eyes half lidded in ecstasy. "Let go, baby. Let go."

He gave you a few desperate thrusts, your palm vibrating with the sound of his moans as he came.

Suddenly, the room felt eerily quiet, the only sounds that mattered were Carmy's panting and your heart's beating. You lowered your hand from his mouth to his chest.

"Shit," he closed his eyes, collecting himself.

"Mhmm," you swayed in your seat, moving his softening cock as you did so. "Better?"

He nodded, a little sheepish. "Thank you."

"Hey. Can't do this every time," you said honestly. The likelihood of you coming to fuck some sense into him on weekdays was low to none. "But why don't you think about this next time you're about to lose it?" you suggested.

"You want me to get hard while running the expo?" he chuckled. His heartbeat was slowing down.

"I mean, if that's what it takes to get you to step down and chill, sure," you teased.

While the idea of Carmy fucking his hand while thinking of you was appealing, it seemed a little impractical to do at the restaurant.

"Might just take a smoke break," he offered. "Save the fucking for when I get home."

"Deal," you kissed him and tapped his cheek gently. "Now, come on, get out there."

He got dressed and ready at a dizzying speed, taking time to rearrange your dress and kiss you one last time before returning to the kitchen. He left the door ajar, and you peeked just in time to see him give an apologetic nod to Syd and ask her to continue running the expo. It was a start. You were satisfied.

Aromanticism is pretty sick actually. Everyone give it up for aromanticism

hey guys......... the hundred line is really good...............

some other universe

(inspired from the comic by falseknees!)

[clubconsent]

One of the interesting things about Gideon being stronger and faster than everyone else in GtN is the one exception: Camilla Hect. Camilla the Sixth hits you like a hurricane and does mid-combat backwards handsprings. How the fuck did she happen?

Well, if we want to be completely hinged about this question, we can turn to the short stories. Camilla mentions in the Mysterious Study of Dr. Sex that everyone in Swordsman's Spire is split into groups based on whether they're hot, competent, or hot and competent. She doesn't say these groups are secret . . . but she does say you wouldn't have heard of them if you weren't from the Sixth.

And the Alexandrites, who are hot and competent, get off-world assignments in the Cohort.

Now. It would be reasonable to guess that the Alexandrites are meant to hook up with other House soldiers. Especially if they're after those necromantic bloodlines like everyone else is.

But what if they're quietly making babies with the rest of the galaxy? What if they're letting the rest of the Houses think they're inbred, when they're actually the only ones who've escaped the genetic bottleneck the rest of the system has been trapped in for 10,000 years?

We have signals that the Houses are generally physically weaker than you'd expect--Marta's running speed is a big one.

So maybe Camilla's not super strong . . . and maybe Gideon isn't either, not any more than you'd expect from a woman who had nothing to do other than grinding out pushups and reading dirty magazines.

Maybe they're just the only humans in Canaan House who haven't inherited whatever a myriad of isolation has done to the Nine Houses.
