SA victim! Reader × RE8 Chris redfield

Note: Made this honestly for myself, been struggling allot emotionally and mentally and I really just needed to write something to give me comfort. I decided to share this in hopes of giving others struggling with similar situations a comfort as well! :') I do want to apologize if this writing comes off as rude or ignorant in any kind of way, I've mainly used my own experiences to tailor this together but I've tried to use universal language to make it feel more personal to the reader. I hope you guys enjoy 💞

The day you opened up to him about your assault or rape was when you were having a particularly bad day in your head, you were having flashbacks of that very moment that ruined you for the rest of your life. Your depression, anger and confusion hit you like a train. You didn't want to be around anyone, not even the man who was trying so hard that day to get you to open up about what was getting you so down. But for whatever the reason maybe, you just couldn't. He worked during what felt like, every damn day of the week, he had enough on his plate. Plus, fear and apprehension was keeping you radio silent the longest. What if he just rolled his eyes, laughed and didn't believe you? Then what? Your relationship wouldn't be the same or just wouldnt exist anymore at all so you thought anyways. Chris would leave you in a heartbeat, no questions asked.

"Baby no- I'm sorry, I can for a fact guarantee you are talking out your ass right now. It's written all over your face."

You could imagine him, you could imagine him saying those very words and right there and then everything you've built with him over the years would fall apart in mere seconds.

I could imagine that in reality, he'd be always ready to talk no matter what or how he's feeling. Because right now, he could matter less. trying to offer you comfort in the forms of snacks, blankets hugs and kisses.

What alarmed him was when you'd force yourself out of his embrace, when you'd stay away from the comforts that you may have typically enjoyed.

He'd be worried sick alright, calling Claire for advice on how he could better help you and maybe get a idea of what your silent struggles where about lately.

You'd sit with him after a few days, and he'd listen face to face with you ears eyes and thoughts all devoted to you, his angel.

"Oh hun...I'm so so sorry, I should have been less pushy. I'm so sorry."

He'd whisper in a quiet, softer voice. Letting you throw yourself at him for a tight hug, all he could feel was- hurt. He felt hurt seeing you hurt, especially THIS hurt. He may not be able to fully understand your pain, but he empathizes and wants nothing more than to take care of you in any way he could.

You want a bubble bath? Say less, your his number one priority.

Takeout from your favorite place, he's getting something from there too.

Or if you just want to vent about it, if you just need his undying attention then so be it.

He'd listen to you all day, keeping you wrapped in his enormous arms safe against his chest and safe in the four walls of your shared space.

"You are so so strong sweetheart, so brave and stronger than you think. I'd say, your stronger than me and my men, your safe here and I'll make sure it stays like that. If you ever need to talk, you know you'll have me, whatever you need."

He'd reassure you in that warm voice of his, like honey his words fell from his lips if you needed to cry or already crying, He'd keep you held close against him, letting you get everything out.

If you needed sometime in therapy, Chris would search for the best place money could buy. He wanted you to feel well, to feel cared and loved and thought about.

I could imagine him to be a VERY patient man, if you were having a flashback that day or just very upset and angry he'd understand and let you express your needs. Weather through writing them down gesturing, or just out right telling him. He'll let you decide and be right with you to support your health and mind.

If there were certain things that especially reminded you of the time, Chris would ask you to either tell him or write it down so that way he'll know to not bring it up or bring a said object near you just to give an example.

If you liked to draw, paint or bake or just chill and watch movies. He'd definetly do these activities with you whenever he's available, he'd definitely check in with you more than previously either texting calling or just asking in person. He knows this is a very delicate moment and time for you, so he'll keep tabs on you 24/7.

When he's away and on duty for work, I can imagine him going to Leon and asking if he could find for him any Intel on your abuser. And during his time away from home, he'd make it his personal mission to find and take care of the waste of air who hurt his precious sunshine.

💐 not sure which characters- go wild

[Henry] All right, first one!

[Connor] I call dibs.

[Elfilin] No, no dibs! He didn't specify, so we can all answer, can't we?

~💐: If you saw this thing in the store, you would instantly buy it for (S/I)! What is the thing?~

[Elfilin] ...If the Waddle Dee Café ever decides to sell chocolate cakes, I'd buy that for them in a heartbeat! They've been asking for a while now. I think the manager is actually starting to consider it.

[Saturn Girl] There's a book Emerson is really going to like. I don't know where they get it from. I think it would be nice if I could get it for them... I don't have a lot of money, though.

[Connor] Aww, kid, that's sweet. Makes mine kinda dumb. They need a new backpack– they keep complaining about how it's not big enough. I was waitin' for the holidays, to be honest.

[Saturn Girl] Is that dumb? It sounds like a good idea. And you sound happy about it.

[Connor] Aah, somebody else go.

[Tim] Is your guys' Emerson into Pokémon cards? Do you guys even have Pokémon cards?

[Henry] I'm like 90% sure we have something kind of-sort of like Pokémon cards.

[Tim] I grab a booster pack any time I see one. My dad had my old binder from when I was a kid, so when I moved in with him– well, Em loves to go through them with me. They don't know where their collection ended up, so, y'know, we're building one back up.

[Henry] ...I'm trying so hard to imagine my Emerson collecting trading cards. They might be into it? They're into like, surprisingly kiddish stuff sometimes. Like, okay, scented markers was the first thing I thought of, you know? Those big thick ones with the squeaky caps?

[Connor] Ha, totally, that's a good one. That's a really good one.

[Saturn Girl] Princess, what about you?

[Aurora] This question is about... gifts for Emerson, is that right?

[Henry] Right. Just like, a little thing, a normal thing, from the store. Though, um, okay, a store is like–

[Tim] –a merchant?

[Aurora] Oh! Emerson loves the fruits the merchants bring in. Have you ever seen a pomegranate? It's a bit like an apple, but the insides– well, it's full of these very strange seeds, and Emerson and I, we had such a time figuring out how to eat one. We tucked ourselves away in a little quiet room and stained our fingers and clothes and– that was very nice. I'd like to have another one soon.

[Saturn Girl] That's a good answer. Pomegranates are very good.

A/n: Don't cry just enjoy :) :(

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

You remember it all. The way your heart ached, the way your life changed in a heartbeat.

You remember the love she gaved you:

You and gwen laid in bed naked. You were already falling asleep. Her hand rubbed small circles on your back as she kissed your forehead.

" I love you y/n " she whispered pulling your sleeping body closer to her.

" beyond stars" were the last words you were able to catch as sleep killed you.

The way she always protected you:

A paparazzi grabbed your hand and tossed you around to face him. You whinced in pain.

" just one picture mrs.christie please" he shouted grabbing your arm again.

" let go of me" you shouted, you voice broke, showing that you were scared and hurt. Something that made Gwen's heart ache.

" she said let go you idiot" gwen said as she punched the guy in the face.

There was so much white noise going on. You covered your ears like a kid as you watched gwen beat up the guy brutally making, his colleagues run away.

Gwen held you firmly and walk you out of the airport. After you were out safe she lectured her bodyguards for not paying better attention to you.

" thank you" you said hugging her tightly.

" of course my little angel, I'll do anything to protect you. I wasn't gonna let that asshole touch you like that, never in a million years will I let someone abuse you like that baby" she whispered as she coverd your face in kisses.

The way she was never had a problem with spending money on you:

" hey gwen" you called out, from the shoe isle.

" yeah?" You heard her faintly respond.

" can you come here please" you replied softly, gwen almost melted at your baby voice. She came into the isle and slowly approached you.

" I wanted theses moon boots but look at the price" you said sadly, gwen bent down a little and took a look at the white paper that had the price of the shoes written on it.

Price: 3,000

" what color do you want baby?" She asked standing back up straight.

You looked at her with confusion.

" I wanted 2 actually a white and maybe red" you said, but the price, the damn price.

" put them in the cart" she said looking at some leather jackets.

" you'd actually buy then for me?" You asked slightly shocked.

She turned to face you again. She placed a soft kiss on your lip.

" I'd buy you then world if it was possible, my princess" she said nodding at you, you quickly remembered that shoes and picked them up.

On the drive home you couldn't stop looking at her and smiling.

" you know i can feel you staring at me right?" She asked slightly chuckling.

You smiled softly at her.

" who did I get so lucky?" She smiled and took her eyes off the road for a second to look at you. You had heart shaped eyes.

" I should be the one asking that question y/n" she said kissing your cheek.

The way she was always worried about you:

All you heard was this massive explosion. You spring awoke and rubbed your eyes.

You looked at the sight before you.

Gwen had broke down the bedroom door.

You looked at the clock on the wall.

2am.

She had just came off set from acting.

" what the actual fuck gwen we just got this house" you shouted, your voice all raspy and cute from sleep.

" I'm so sorry babe, it's just that I've been calling you and you didn't pick up, I thought something bad had happened" she spoke softly, clearly scared.

You picked up your phone from the dresser and checked your call logs.

67 missed calls

17 voice mails

2 missed FaceTime calls

10 unread messages

You smiled softly and placed your phone back down on to charge.

" I'm fine, didn't know my wife worked for the FBI, how many kicks did it take?" You asked as she crawled onto the bed to hug you.

" 1" she said, you giggled. She pulled you closer to her chest and kissed your forehead.

" and i'd do it again" she whispered.

" yeah I don't think so ms. hulk, do you know how much it will take to fix back that door" you said, snuggling closer to her.

Soon you fell asleep again. And you felt safe.

Gwen was your everything, your safe place, your home, your companion, your comfort, your sunshine, your success, your friend, your wife she meant the world to you.

You remembered when you first met her. You were just a young fan at one of her red carpet events who just wanted their favorite celebrity to sign their autograph.

But she saw something special in you. You were the first person in 24 years to actually understand her.

You still remember the day gwen asked you to be her girlfriend. In Paris at a very fancy restaurant called " la Gabriel"

And then day she asked to be her wife at the Maldives.

She always made you feel special and loved something you never felt.

Gwen and you had an unbreakable bond.

That was until you both announced your relationship on social media, things went downhill.

Your marriage went south and no matter how many times you both tried to save it. Nothing seemed to work.

Gwen was always at work, busy with work. You didn't slaughter her for that because so were you.

You both always argued over stupid stuff.

She truly loved you and so did you.

You both were planning to have a family together but life had other plans.

The day that broke you the most was the day you and gwen got divorced, well sign your divorce papers.

You couldn't look at her. You felt guilty.

You've been crying for days. Your eyes were puffy, you were always sniffing.

You were a sun glasses to hide your tears but gwen saw right through your fake barrier.

" y/l/n it's time to sign the papers then gwen" the lawyer said. You took off the glasses and took in a deep breath and let out a shaky one.

Your eyes met her gaze.

Right then and there every good moment you both had with each other came flooding back.

You fell to the floor and broke down.

" I- I can't I'm sorry" you mumbled, as you sniffed. You sobbed and sobbed.

How could you divorce the only person that loved you. Truly loved you...

" I- I withdraw" you whimpered, as you dry your tears.

" Well gwendoline what's your response?" The lawyer asked. Gwendoline couldn't take her eyes off you.

She stayed silent. Her heart broke into a million pieces.

She wanted to hug you so bad. She hated seeing you sad. It made her heart break.

You both were given a month to figure things out then come back in and sign the papers. That's if gwen also withdraws.

What ever both your fates may be. Your heart will go on.......

[struggle-but-its-all-ocean-floor]

I’m sure jungkook already had ideas about this going in, but I can’t help thinking about how much better all of the rappers in bts are compared to Jack Harlow and central cee. It says a lot about who gets elevated in the music industry. Like jungkook was so spoiled with rap line 😭 I wonder if it’s something he noted. Tbh, and I don’t know if this makes sense considering how much more recognized they are, but being a western pop star doesn’t seem like all it’s cracked up to be success-wise. There are a lot of people that make music that’s played heavily on the radio and heavily listened to, like kid laroi maybe, but idk if I’ve ever met a kid laroi ‘fan’ or if people really go to his concerts or physically buy his albums. Most likely he’s taking pennies from Spotify, and that’s probably what most of them do if they’re not Taylor swift. K-pop fan engagement is a different beast bc the fan culture is very much about actively engaging with the artists - going to concerts and buying albums and hyping them. You’ll more directly receive the love from your fans, which boosts you up more. Since most people aren’t going to be successful in either industry, I think I’d rather be in kpop since it might feel more rewarding in the moment

Yeah, the BTS rap line is infinitely superior to Central Cee and Jack Harlow - from flow to lyrics to looks to charm lmao.

It's true that success in the West a lot of times seems to mean people knowing who you are because they heard of you or heard one or two of your songs on the radio and not even by choice. Those artists make money from ads, performances, their label, but may not really have that many real fans. The Kid Laroi is famous, everyone in a given age group knows who he is, but he probably wouldn't fill a stadium in a heartbeat like Jungkook would, no matter how big the stadium. Even in a market like Europe, where The Kid Laroi is way more mainstream, Jungkook would still sell out any stadium over him, even if all the seats were filled with foreigners who flew in to see him. It's a bit unfair that, despite this reality, Jungkook will probably never be mainstream the way a lot of American artists are.

But American artists make a lot more money than kpop artists, work less in general, and often have more creative control and personal freedom. I wouldn't say that it's better to be a kpop artist. If you think The Kid Laroi is being paid pennies, than how much do you think most idols make? And he's just starting out. There's also a question of trainee debt, harsh beauty standards that male pop artists at least can probably evade, a grueling workload, less creative and personal freedom in general, etc. It's one thing to be BTS and another thing to be anyone else. Even Exo are all leaving SM and they're at the top of the industry. The pop industry is also exploitative, full of controlling executives, and ugly inside out, but I'd be willing to bet it gives artists more opportunities in the future. Music wise, I'd rather be an idol, and agree that the bond idols and fans share is much more interesting than what Western artists and their fans have, but I doubt that, as far as personal happiness and fulfillment go, being an American artist, pop or not, is less fulfilling than being an idol. Plenty of American artists have really solid fanbases and It opens a lot more doors too.

I don't know, both industries suck for sure.

Thanks for the ask!

J used to show me houses for sale all the time. We talked a lot about buying a place because our rental was tiny and caused a lot of issues between us from the lack of space. But the houses he showed me were always in locations we were not going to move to and/or way out of budget. He never actually had any intentions of buying a place for us. He didn't like being the breadwinner. He didn't like having to pay more than me because I made less than half what he did. He wanted me to make an equal 50/50 contribution into our life together, but didn't understand that that meant I would have literally nothing leftover while he still had lots. That was typical in our relationship. I spent every cent I had on shared expenses and had nothing left for myself. That's part of what made it so hard to leave in the end. I couldn't save money because all of it was going into our expenses, while he had 40k in his bank account. I was paycheque to paycheque and he was comfortably middle class. My PARTNER. Not my roommate. Not my friend. My fucking partner whom I lived with. My partner whom I had been living with for over 6 years and had helped with his business multiple times while not asking for anything in return. But god forbid I do ask for absolutely anything. I was met with resentment. And he wonders why I was so unhappy. He was so BLINDSIDED when I left and I still can't grasp how. I tried communicating to him countless times that I was unhappy and why. He never made any effort to help me. He didn't WANT to help me. He wanted me to seamlessly fit into his life and he didn't want to make any changes to himself or what he wanted to do so that I could have anything I wanted.

In the end I was forced to reach out to my parents, from whom I have been estranged, to ask for money so I could get out. It sucks that I had to do that because my parents stress me the fuck out all the time and I do not like them, but getting away from J was starting to feel desperate. I had to. I couldn't keep it up anymore.

And now I have G, who is a wonderful man and I am SO glad to have found him. I adore the shit out of him. And I have my own house, which is insane and awesome. Even tho I am financially screwed unless I get this job I have an interview for tomorrow that pays twice what I make now.

It just makes me so mad, everything that went on with J. The longer I am away, the more I realize how fucked that relationship was. The more I realize I WAS being abused and taken advantage of and taken for granted. Every man I have dated has taken me for granted. So far G is the only one that hasn't. And I really hope it stays that way because I'd marry this one. Like in a heartbeat.

i'm not sure how the rumours first started in regards to franco>rb, but after franco himself pretty much denied the rumours there's been more talk from horner and helmut that's making me think it could be a possibility. also idk if ppl take this into consideration but he followed rbr and rb argentina on insta lol, doesn't have to mean anything but thought i'd mention it. personally for me tho the reason why i'd hate to see it is just the way rb loves to destroy the careers of drivers. i read a post recently that had an extensive list of all the drivers that have been fucked over by rb, and i'd hate for him to be added to that list. if the move did happen tho, rb would have to buy him out which could be costly as you say, cause they don't want him on loan. and i don't necessarily think he'd get the rb seat, probably vcarb and either liam is promoted or yuki is fired. but i think they're seriously considering it because franco actually shares a sponsorship with carlos slim (checo's big back backer. it's just one of his brands not like his full support), and carlos has said himself he's open to working with franco...provided it doesn't compromise checo. but idk, rich ppl are snakes. as long as rb gets to keep all the sponsorship money i think they'd fire checo in a heartbeat. then again helmut did also say recently that oscar was talking with them and oscar said old man is talking out his ass again, so i seriously don't know which side of the fence to jump to

Oh, I didn't know about Carlos Slim and I understand why that'd start rumours! However I don't think Horner shit stirring after he was directly asked means anything either way. He just loves to talk. I can't see Yuki leaving until 2026, but you're right he technically could get bought out.

(I'm aware of that post you mentioned and I have so much beef with RBR as a team mainly because of the role Marko has in the junior program, but — and I can't believe I'm typing this sorta defending RBR — I have some nitpicks wrt that post and I think it goes overboard; I'd only take it as 80% accurate, not 100%, in terms of the picture it paints of Red Bull. Which is still a lot. But I think given the situation, VCARB might be beneficial to Franco's career if the occasion showed up BUT if that happened I'd be wary. Because of said track record)

[olderthannetfic]

I'm gonna say it. I fucking hate "legal readers" with all my fucking heart, soul and body. All of them can step on legos thrice a row and cry about it.

You see, sometimes consuming whatever entertainment media in Spanish is a fucking pain in the ass, because foreign corporations take their really long time to bring to us, Spanish speakers (specially LATAM ones, fuck Europe), that entertainment media we want to read/watch/listen to. So we of fucking course have to go with the method that all gringuitos in Twitter hate and moan and cry about: piracy. I'll be more specific: fan traslations of manhua. Sorry "legal readers" (I'm totally fucking using this way to call 'em as derogatory), but we read that shit illegally. But I'll be fair, they're aren't always gringos. Sometimes they're latinoamericanes too with really USA-poisoned brain.

You see, a month ago or so BiliBili made a public recruitment for Eng to Esp translators. When we saw this, we teared up with fucking joy. Finally! We can read in our language, in the App/Website! We can support our fave authors and illustrators! But most importantly, we won't depend of shitty business as Seven Seas! We, fans, can and will do the job we love to do because we love manhua! Joy, pure fucking joy.

That, until BiliBili just yesterday (or two days ago) realesed the Spanish version. Legal readers apparently were stupid enough to ignore the fact that since the beginning BiliBili was hiring fan traslators and fans in general for the job and when they saw that a lot of people and groups (like GreyHands, they made a great fucking job translating MDZS to Spanish, I'll be forever grateful) that did those illegal translations were NOW doing it LEGAL, they started a war.

"How DARE BiliBili to NORMALIZE illegal translations??? How DARE BiliBili to give job to those horrible bad BAD people who MAKE authors SUFFER when they translate illegally???? How DARE they to make the illegal legal????". They wanted to boycott BiliBili Comics for THIS. They started doxxing and harassing the people that now are working to translate manhua to Spanish (specially one specific person who said that they translation will be also uploaded to TMO [the MangaDex for Spanish speakers] besides BiliBili). But y'all want to know the best part? Those damn legal readers fuckers went to KOREAN authors and cried over this. Why? I think that even God doesn't know the answer, but the Korean authors also started the dumb as fuck discourse about this saying as well "how DARE BiliBili do this????".

Like. My good pendejos imbéciles, can y'all hide better your classism? Please? As a nice suggestion.

Piracy is the only option when corporations ignore your fucking existence until you start being loud enough for 'em to care. And sometimes is the only option when the corporations now know your existence but are absolute GARBAGE and want to abuse and do a really poor job. We LATAM, as a whole continent, are very poor. Things that bring us joy are expensive, we have to fucking survive but we still have the DAMN RIGHT to enjoy WHATEVER we want. And this includes manhua, donghua and danmei novels. And is also true for whatever people in whatever country that is poor. But those legal readers just HATE the fact that we can still ENJOY things. They hate that we can enjoy manhua in our very own language for free. I don't care what you pay, good for you that you can do that and you'll still have money to eat and pay rent and do other things, that's your problem. Good for you, truly. But this isn't everyones life. Why y'all legal readers hate the fact that FANS are working free for FANS to bring 'em joy? If I had enough money to survive AND buy things legally (implying that corporations treat the authors good and they don't steal absolutely anything from 'em) I'd do it in a heartbeat. Without doubt. But I can't, because I don't have that money but I have the right to be happy for a few minutes/hours. (And please don't fucking start the "Local Library Discourse" in the notes because I'll throw legos at y'all who do because gringos love every damn time to bring this up even tho you could be talking about a total different and unrelated subject.)

I'd hate to hate the fact that other people can enjoy things and be happy and find a job when they're poor or when they just want to be nice to poor fans.

--

People are quite dumb about piracy. They believe corporations' crying about how every illegal watch/listen is a lost sale, but it never is, even in rich countries.

The College Gain

Ch.1

Pairing: Austin (oc) x Kell (oc)

Summary:

Austin has been mysteriously gaining worrying amounts of weight since entering college. After hitting 300 pounds, he tries to go to class.

---

Austin rubbed his belly as he walked into the dorm washroom, already bothered by the chafing of his thighs.

Austin stood on the scale for a moment, stepping off when he heard a beep, he looked down. 300. 300 pounds.

How was that possible?

Austin had been a tall, fit and lean 140 pounds when he first came to college. It had only been about a year, and now, at 20 years old, Austin is 300 pounds. He had no idea how it happened! He hadn't been eating differently, he still walked to class everyday (even though that was getting more and more difficult), and before he hit 260 about a month ago he had been going to the gym as regularly as he had since he turned 16.

His roommate, Kell, told him I was probably just because of the college life, it was draining, they didn't have alot of money for healthy foods and alot of it was probably just stress weight. Austin thought the weight was supposed to go away once the stress left, but apparently not. It stuck to him like glue. Dripping off of him in large rolls that only continued to get larger.

He had a double chin now, it was just beginning to show, but I was constantly there now. His cheeks were always a bright pink, he was exhausted from hauling around his blubber all day. This much weight this fast was not normal.

His arms bulged out, forced away from him by his quickly growing tits. His stomach bulged past his chest, soft as ever. You'd never even know Austin had ever had any muscle to him with the way his softness swayed and slapped against itself.

His lower half was his least favourite. It had taken the brunt of the weight, far exceeding his other body parts, feminizing him on a humiliating way. His ass was larger than any chair the college had, he had no choice but to sit in the ones with no arms, but that caused his ass to droop over the edges. His thighs tenderly touched in the middle, constantly rubbing and quickly splitting the seams of every pair of jeans he bought. He soon gave up, buying sweatpants 3 sizes bigger than needed every time he shopped, knowing he'd fill them out sooner or later.

It seemed today was that day.

He pulled them over his knees, only to be met with resistance half way up his thighs. His thigh rolls had gotten thicker, ass flabbier. Already out of breath, Austin began to wiggle his body slowly inside of the pants, and finally, after 2 minutes of his belly swaying like a pendulum, he got them up.

He sat down, or rather flopped, on the bed beside him. He was winded. He would definitely be late for class I'd he didn't get a move on. He placed a thick hand onto his chest, trying to slow his heartbeat.

The biggest shirt he had was still tight, and today it was even worse. The shirt clung to ever roll he had, accentuating his belly button, the rest of his apron couldn't be contained, however, falling over his waistband in a delicious muffin top shape.

The sleeves felt like they were cutting off his circulation, but, trying his best to ignore it, Austin threw a sweater on top, only to find it didn't really come close to zipping. Great. He battled with his shoes for another 5 minutes before finally beginning the trek to class.

----

Kell walked slightly ahead, trying his best to keep pace with Austin. But he was so slow now it was getting difficult to do so, Austin could tell. He hid his face in his warm, camo green scarf, not only trying to get a little warmer, but also to hide his heavy breathing.

"Anyway, that's what Jason said, so, you're invited too, obviously," Kell continued on talking, but, try as he might, Austin just couldn't pay attention. His shirt was unbearably tight, rubbing across his nipples just right, the combination of the cold and the chafing made them both hard as pebbles.

He felt it in his thighs too, while he was mostly chilly in the autumn air, his thighs were on fire. Burning from the long walk and from the much too tight sweatpants. He tried his best to cover it up, but he was very flushed and bothered. He was sure he'd be standing at full attention if his belly werent in the way.

Arriving to class, (only slightly late, lucky for them) Austin began to make his way to the back, where he always sat, away from the prying eyes of his classmates. It rarely ever worked. The girls in the class gawked at him every time. They couldn't believe he was still getting bigger. I mean, he has to realize he huge, right? He should just put the food down, right? He was so hot when he first got here! Long, curly blonde hair and brilliant blue eyes. Cheekbones and a wonderful jawline. His features had been covered in multiple layers of pudge now. He wasn't just fat at this point, and it would be concerning if it wasn't so funny to watch him struggle into class every week.

"Watch it, lardass," A boy beside him said sternly as Austin's ass almost knocked his books off the table. "Sorry," Austin muttered quietly, shuffling to his desk a bit faster.

He approached his chair, and today, it looked startlingly small. He braced himself against the edge of his desk, trying his best to lower himself slowly and carefully onto the shitty plastic. When he felt his cheeks touch the chair, he eased up, slowly leaning back, and.

Nope.

This couldn't be happening.

First, he heard a creak, then a crack, then he felt unstable, and then the entire class went quiet as his blubbery ass hit the floor.

For a second, there was silence. Then a chuckle, then raucous laughter. Austin's fat cheeks heated up, burning red hot as he was laughed at. He didn't dare move. He made eye contact with Kell. He gave Austin a look of pity

This couldn't be happening to him.

Hope all is well over in MedaLand!! ❤️❤️

As for an ask: What kinds of things do you collect? Is there anything you want to start collecting/wish you could but don’t have the money/time/space to do so?

All is going somewhat alright in MedaLand, thank you for asking, darling!! Hope everything is going alright with you!! 🥺✨

If I had the money...I would collect so much merchandise for The Last of Us. Like people on Etsy reproduce the trading cards and collectible documents from the games and if I had infinite money, I'd buy literally all of them. Would I have a practical use for them? Absolutely not. But if I could submerge myself into the universe where a mutant virus has taken over the world and Abigail Anderson could choke me out?? I would do it in a heartbeat xx

Aussie Currency Guide [Part 1 - Coins]

Have an aussie character, or sending your character downunder for a fic? Are you coming for a holiday and our weird monopoly money and coins are confusing?

If you want some currency continuity, then here's a little info on our money system. It's pretty self-explanatory, but the bills have been changed recently to include a new design, but the amounts are similar.

------------

Coins

Aussie currency is half coins, half notes. Which is why watching cartoon characters pay for $1/$2 items with a note was so confusing as a child. WTF M8

We have 5 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, 1 dollar and 2 dollar coins. There was, in the past, 1 and 2 cent coins, before inflation. They are a curiosity now, and cannot be used.

ALL coins have a small portrait of Queen Elizabeth (or the reigning monarch of the time) on the back of them. It will have the year of minting as well. As there has been no musical thrones while I've been alive, I've not come across a different backed coin; but when Elizabeth II passes, new coins will be minted with the next ruler on them.

Now that I think about it, it's a bit weird. But if we had to update the coins everytime we got a new Prime Minister, the minters would flatout quit from exhaustion.

The 2 cent coin has a frill neck lizard on it, they use their frills as a way to threaten potential predators, a real 'stay away or i'll get you' thing. They can technically bite, but of all aus's lizards... I'd prefer to 1v1 this guy than the goana.

The 1 cent coin has a brush-tailed possum on it, google them. 10/10 cute.

Sizes and Shapes

-------------------

The smallest coin is 5 cents (as above):

The base coin has a little echidna on it. Some of the coins you see today also have special editions, depending on the year or an event.

5 cents does not buy much, but you can get a small lolly like a ghost drop or heartbeat candy or a single red frog, etc. You can get items that are like, 25cents or 45 cents, etc, but usualy they'e lollies or super 2 x 5 = 10 cents, 4 x 5 = 20 cents, 10 x 5 = 50cents, 20 x 5 = $1, and so on.

---------------------

10 cents

Our ten cent coins feature the lyrebird, a beautiful, clever little asshole that has mimicry down to an ARTFORM. It can mimic car alarms, large animal growls, etc.

Used, but not for much as an individual purchase. Lolies or a really cheap op shop item, perhaps. Again, mostly used in conjunction with other small silver coins. 2 x 10 = 20 cents, 5 x 10 cents = 50 cents, 10 x 10 = $1, 20 x 10 = $2, 100 x 10 cents = A good reason for the checkout chick to murder you. Fun fact: most people slip 5 and 10 cent coins into donation boxes for charities or rescues, and you should too. Each small amount helps to build to something bigger.

-------------------

20 cents

Our 20 cent coins feature the iconic platypus taking a dip. I used to like tracing the water wirls when I was little. Like, they put effort into making these coin designs.

You can occasionally get the odd little thing for 20 cents, like a lucky dip at an op shop or local markets, etc. If you need 40 cents, 60 cents or 80 cents, this is the coin you prefer, or it gets messy with smaller coins. Also you can see the rage building in a cashier if you hand them $2 in 5 cent coins, etc.

5 x 20 = $1, 10 x 20 = $2, 25 x 20 = $5 (not recommended unless no other choice, your purse will weigh a ton).

-----------------

50 cents

Featured is the australian emblem and shield. Featuring the two main animals on our emblem, the kangaroo and the emu. Both creatures that are beautiful and would remove you from the census immediately if possible. Please do not try to pet our wildlife.

This is the most used of the 'silver' coins.

50 cents can buy you a few low tier items, such as a small lolly, a lucky dip, a cheap toy (like out of a cheap vending machine thing), or something small from a cheap store.

2 x 50 = $1, 4 x 50 = $2, 10 x 50 = $5, 20 x 50 = $10, etc.

The 50cent, $1 and $2 are the most often used and changed coins - eg. more likely to have a commemorative design minting.

eg:

------------------

1 dollar

The 1 dollar coin is the lesser but larger of the two 'gold' coins. Technically I believe it depicts a single kangaroo at different stages of jumping, but I also like to imagine it's a whole mob of them all together. They even defined the musculature, noice.

Please do not try to pet a kangaroo or the smaller cousin the wallaby, they will end you.

The dollar coin is easy to understand, 1 x 2 = $2, 1 x 5 = $5, 1 x 10 = $10, etc. Very versatile, more than a few stores that let you have small things like little packs of lollies, cheap toiletries, a can of softdrink, small breakable toys, etc. for $1.

-----------------

2 dollars

This is the 2 dollar coin, it features, "the archetype of an Aboriginal Tribal Elder, by Horst Hahne". You can also see the Southern Cross above the Elder, and some native plants in the background.

You can get a surprising amount of items for $2, not a huge amount, but most cheap stores have a lot for $2 - including toys, toiletries, small homeware items, cups, art items, lollies, drinks, etc.

5 x 2 = $10, 10 x 2 = $20, 25 x $2 = $50, 50 x $2 = $100 / immediate murder by a justified minimum-wage employee

[Part 2 - Notes]

if i could stop time, i would

info ; eren x reader ; soulmates ; 1.8k

content warning ; end of the world concept, mentions of not really wanting to live lol, gentle angst

Day one. 72 hours until the world ends.

The world is going to shit. I know it is because I can hear the panicked buzz of mothers holding their children close and reassuring them as the news practically burned "we're all going to die" into our heads.

My fingers twitched as they held the dark blue fabric of my jeans. I'm terrified ㅡ as is the rest of the people watching the news ㅡ and it most definitely doesnt help when they plaster a large timer onto the screen counting down our days and hours left on our beloved blue planet.

"We never thought this day would come.. Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached the end of the chapter." The words echoed into the back of my mind. 'The end of the chapter'? I havent even really lived my life? I'm only seventeen.. I barely made it to graduation. I suck in a deep breath, filling my lungs fully before releasing the built up pressure.

Theres a burning sensation on my waterline, tears threatening to roll down my cheeks. My hands begin to shake when I think back to all the sleepless nights I spent not enjoying life. I took life for granted ㅡ and now it's going to end in three days. In seventy-two hours, it's all going to go away. That's not enough time to say all the things I didnt have a chance to say.

Wasted opportunities.

Wasted chances that I now no longer have control over.

My legs suddenly feel like spaghetti and walking seems like a foriegn topic to me. I just need to sit down, take a breather.

Who am I kidding. The storm inside me is raging on tonight and my hands have a handful of messy locks.

I catch glimpse of inked red calligraphy spelling out the name 'Eren' that is marked onto the inside of my forearm in small writing just an inch below my wrist. My heart swells with sadness.

The sense of realization settles in, practically telling me to 'let this sink in for a little'. I'm not ever going to get the chance to meet my soulmate. I'll never get the satisfaction of weaving their fingers with mine, to lay on the couch on cold winter nights with blankets drooped over our shoulders. Never get the chance to tell them I love them over and over again, to brush their hair behind their ears, grab them by the smooth skin of theirs and feel the fireworks of pressing my lips against their own.

I wont feel the sweet electricity course through me like people explained would happen when they touched their soulmate for the first time. I've spent seventeen years searching for this perfect person in the happiness of this little town. The universe promised a perfect person, they never promised me to meet them though.

The younger generations were lucky, for they werent born with marks. They werent tied to someone, so they dont have anything to lose other than the fact that they're too young to leave this world.

A crowd begins to pull outside, staring at the sky with both a mix of admiration and fear. The blue sky has begun to turn itself into a peach color. My town's happy vibe has now turned uneasy, scared, unsure.

That day, I walk home slowly when the sky begins to darken, taking the scenery of the autumn leaves disarray upon the concrete sidewalk. If the world is ending in three days, I'm going to make the most of it. Soak it up like a sponge. Do what I should've been doing these past seventeen years and love life for once ㅡ despite all the wrong. Despite the fact that I'll never graduate, and never meet my soulmate. I force myself to disregard the nagging thoughts that tug at my conscious.

I dont think about the fact that I'll never get a chance to buy my first apartment.

I dont think about how I wont be able to wake up every morning to make my significant other breakfast.

And I most certainly dont think about how I'll never be able to take my lovers hand at the alter and say with great pride, "I do."

Day 2. 48 hours until the world ends.

Today, I woke up early. Early enough that the sun still hasn't peaked over the clouds. They say that if you wake up early enough the day takes longer to end.

The aching pain in my chest never seems to cease. I laugh a little bitterly at the calander on the wall, I feel like its mocking me now. A part of me wants to rip the thing to shreds and scream until my throat is raw ㅡ but I said I'd make the best of these last days. So, I push these bitter thoughts from my mind and start up a warm shower.

Seventeen years of not wanting to be alive, and now I only have two days to live until the entire world completely goes to shit. Ironic, isn’t it? Why now am I so angry? The water is warm trickling down my bare body, as my shower thoughts continue treading forward to how I could make life better in less than forty-eight hours.

I walk down a different road today, deciding that routine wasnt necessary when the world is going to end in forty-eight hours. The countdown continues on nearby TVs, the bright white luminous against the dark morning sky.

It makes me feel anxious.

Destruction clouds my mind, but I bite my lip and hold my ground. This situation will not drive me crazy.

The town is a lot quieter than I expected, then again it's only 6 in the morning.

The day carries on just as any other day, the air seems heavier though. It's the night time that brings chaos.

You see, I've been walking around town all day blowing that last little bits of money I have on little things that have no purpose. The sky is the same sunset peach as it was yesterday, only barely hinting at a blue color.

There's a faint noise a few blocks from where I am standing, and at first I chose the ignore it. The yelling got louder and louder until I felt my feet pull like magnets to what was going on.

Chocolate hair, smooth tan skin shining under the soft orange of the sky, handfuls of someones shirt as this mystery man pinned some junky against the rough brick wall. His eyes held a killer glow, practically fuming from the ears. I was going to mind my own business, but then I saw the other strike at the brunette ㅡ and I dont know why, but I stepped in.

A surprise attack, a blow right to the face, maybe a minor bruise on my cheek from when the other decided to attack back ㅡ but soon he left. I turn my gaze back to the brunette who still sits on the floor, palms pressed into the concrete.

"I didnt need your help," he hissed, dusting his hands against the black fabric of his jeans.

"Oh you're welcome for saving your ass, wasnt a problem at all." My hand lifts to my face, pressing onto the bruise and wincing before squatting next to this stranger. "Is it bad? Let me see," The moment my hand makes contact with the others chin I feel the rush of electricity course through me.

Overwhelming is an understatement. Sweet emotions flooded through my mind but I can feel the pounding of fear in my veins, and bittersweet it was. When I retract my hand, I see that he's mirrored the exact expression I have; eyes blown wide, fear in the darks of his pupils.

"Eren..?" trying to keep my voice from cracking seems hard, and it comes out more like a whisper. This situation leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Where the hell has he been for seventeen years? Why is he just now showing up?

Eren immediately sprung to his feet, taking a few steps back with no words to say. I snatched at his left arm, pushing the sweaters sleeve up and over his forearm to see my name inked in blue against his paper skin. "So.. you're my soulmate?" I promise I didnt mean to make it sound disappointed ㅡ but in a way, I guess you could say I was.

So many questions raced through my mind; but the biggest question of all was why? Why now of all times we could've met? Why must I be gifted with the worst luck.

Eren isnt a bad person though, and in the few hours we've spent together I can tell you this; His favorite color is red, he lives with his mother and a girl that his family took in when they were very little - who he loves dearly, he can play guitar very well, he looks absolutely adorable with his hair tied up, and that's only the stuff he's told me within the first hour.

Words cannot express how much I wished we could have more time together, but the bright TV clocks continue to remind me that our time is running out.

"There's nothing more I'd rather do than to spend my last moments with you," Eren whispered, golden flecks in his beautiful ocean eyes. His hand was held in mine as the pained expression washed over his face. Somewhere in the conversation led us to this point of heartbreak. We both explained how we wanted nothing more than to meet earlier in life, but apparently the universe had a different plan.

The idea of parting with Eren now just seemed like a waste, and I'd much rather take my dying last breath next to the one I looked for my entire life. Falling in love is easy when you've got nothing to live for.

The walk back to my house is silent, but it's a comfortable silence, and we never seem to let go of each others hands. The house is quiet and dark when we enter.

The rest of the remaining night we have is spent cuddled under the thick blanket of mine, Eren held me close to his chest as we whisper sweet things that wont mean much in a few hours. Chaste kisses are showered over the male as I remind him of how I never stopped searching for him.

He studied my face, moving a strand of hair behind my ear before placing his palm onto my cheek and rubbing his thumb across the smoothness underneath my eye. I could feel my breath begin to shallow and my heart skip a beat. I loved the way his eyes sparkled under my dim-lit room, the way I could feel his heartbeat pulsing from how close we lay where, how steady his breathing was, and how gentle he caressed me.

Its bittersweet, and I never believed in the after life, but with him - maybe, just maybe, we will meet again in the next life.

[cutietobio]

Hey, I just discovered your tumblr and I really love it. I spent a great time reading a lot of your Imagines. Thank you for all this! And I have a request if you don't mind? I'd like to know who are your favorite characters and what are your headcanons about them (be it sfw or nsfw, I can read anything, just tell us what cross your mind)? And if they aren't your favs, would you mind adding Kuroo, Tsukishima, Nishinoya and Oikawa in the list? I really wanna know your hc about them as well. Ty!

Thank you so much for the support, anon! I’m so glad that you like my writings. Also, if I had to make headcanons about my favs, I would be making headcanons for every character, besides maybe Atsumu lmao. So, I’ll be doing headcanons for your requested characters and add in one of my all-time favourite characters that I would date in a heartbeat, Kyoutani :’)

 KUROO

- I can imagine both of you being the party couple in college, throwing the best damn house parties that practically become famous on campus. Both of you are pretty popular, managing to maintain difficult majors all the while getting wasted almost every weekend. During these parties, you’re setting yourselves both up as Kenma’s wingmen. He has no escape from either of you as you point out various people he may like. “Oooh, look. She’s wearing a Dark Souls t-shirt, should I tell her you’re interested?” He tries to sneak away when you’re both occupied but hunting him down is just so easy that he’s actually frightened by your ability to do so.

- You’re definitely there cheering him on during volleyball practice, basically shouting out shameless praises that would make any normal person flustered. Not Kuroo, it just turns him on more and he ditches practice early to fuck you in the boy's shower rooms. This is actually a common occurrence, and the one time ya’ll went at it while almost every shower was occupied.

 TSUKISHIMA

- I can totally see Kei as one of those boyfriends who rolls his eyes when you have ‘tea’ to spill but he’s highkey so into gossiping that the both of you can go on for hours just talking about such irrelevant topics regarding anything from celebrities, opinions and classmates. Your conversations are never dull, and since Kei is so smart, he usually helps you to form better-insighted opinions on various things and you feel better equipped if anyone wants to try you with their bullshit facts. You would send him a message telling him you have tea to spill and he’d immediately reply with “spill it.” 

- When it comes to nsfw, idk why but mutual masturbation comes to mind when I think about Kei. I sense him as the type of person to find it really hot watching you touch yourself and demand you to do different things to your body because he loves the feeling of being in control when he isn’t even touching you. And just when you’re reaching your high, he tells you to stop. You’d better listen to him because I see him as the type of person to serve ‘punishments’ if you don’t. 

 NISHINOYA

- Your life with Noya would be so adventurous, anybody would get lowkey jealous. The two of you are almost never in Japan, deciding to travel the world straight after high school (don’t ask me where you got the funds just accept this gracious gift). You’d go zip-lining in Costa Rica, visit the Kruger National Park in South Africa and go scuba diving in Australia. And so much more! You’d definitely have that map where you scratch out all the countries you’ve been to and hang it up as a staple piece in your house once the two of you settle down to focus on careers and family matters. There’s barely any countries left unscratched, and those that are still blocked out will be visited with your future children one day :’)

- Sex with Nishinoya is pretty goofy, loud and just hot altogether. He would crack a few jokes, make fun of your facial expressions, moan out something absolutely ridiculous which gets you giggling, all while maintaining the mood. He’s super loud, I can imagine the two of you going at it in a hotel room in Indonesia and getting interrupted by angry neighbours yelling at you to shut up. Noya would probably be like, “Uhm, no comprendo,” and you’d hit him on the shoulder. He’s also lowkey into public sex because I’m 100% sure he wouldn’t give up the opportunity to fuck you on the moonlit beach of Bali. 

 OIKAWA

- I always struggle with Oikawa, so this may not be great, but I imagine him proposing to you at Disneyland. He would splurge so much money on a ring for you, and your wedding is going to be one of the most extravagant in comparison to the rest of the characters. He’s actually so good-looking that some girl at Disneyland mistook him for a hired prince that works there and tried pulling a move on him. But he’d ignore her and pull you close and be like, “Yeah, I am, and this is my princess!” Turns out he didn’t even know she was trying to flirt with him so he really just acted out of initial thought and that made your heart swell.

- Oikawa is the type of guy to buy condoms, strawberries and chocolate ten o clock at night and not even blush about it. You’d be sitting in the car feeling embarrassed FOR him. He’d be pretty romantic during sex, and compliment you continuously, which means a lot coming from someone like him who can be pretty vain at times. Would either be sensual and slow or wild and animalistic. Depends on his mood.

 KYOUTANI

- My headcanon is he’s dating me, and I love my feral boyfriend.

- He’s so soft when it comes to you. I imagine his scowl immediately fading at the sound of your voice and watching you talk and rant on about different things while he stares at you with a look of adoration. If anybody interrupts you he’s ready to square up.

- I imagine him to be pretty awkward and flustered during sex, missing your hole as he tries to thrust into you and not knowing much about what he’s doing. You’ll lead him through it and tell him what feels good, lift his head lightly if he’s accidentally using too much teeth on you and moaning his name loudly to encourage him when he does something pleasurable. Once he gets more comfortable he starts using more teeth on purpose, he might like inflicting pain to a minor degree.

wtgfs | 2.5K words | basically a redo of mag94 with more crying and cuddling | for tma h/c week day 6: cradled

Georgie wraps her braids and changes into her pajamas, feeling—not fear, or apprehension, because that’s not possible, but perhaps, less excitement than usual. She normally doesn’t notice her heartbeat, but tonight, she does. It’s stable, but the fact that she checked in the first place is another bad sign.

“You said you wanted to tell me something,” Melanie says as Georgie gets under her blanket.

Georgie nods slowly, then realizes that Melanie can’t see it. “Yeah. I did.”

“I… I might’ve misread you, but it sounded serious?”

Georgie’s heart continues to beat, slow and steady. “A little.”

“Do you want to start?”

“Sure.”

“Talk away, then.”

“Okay.” Georgie shifts into a more comfortable position, then closes her eyes. “You know how I graduated from uni a year late?”

“Yeahh,” Melanie says, slowly. “You said it was for mental health?”

“Right.” Georgie blows out a breath. “Which was true, definitely, but… that’s not the full story. It’s, well…”

The last time Georgie did this, it was with Jon, the Eye drawing the words out of her like sap from a particularly juicy tree. This time, there’s nothing spurring her forward but her own determination. “Blood from a stone” is a far more apt simile.

“Uh, basically, my first year at Oxford, there was some stuff going down with the med students—or wait, I should probably start by saying I had… a friend named Alex… Or… no… that’s not it, either. God,” Georgie groans. “Why is this so hard?”

“Probably because talking sucks,” Melanie says. Georgie laughs, and Melanie adds, “I could… I could hug you while you told me? If that- Would that help?”

Georgie considers it, thinks about burying her face in the scent of Melanie’s citrus shampoo, so different from the antiseptic and decay of the Oxford medical building, thinks about feeling the strength of Melanie’s arms around her as she whispers out her story. “Yeah. Maybe.”

It takes a lot of shuffling around to get into the right positions, especially since Georgie’s vast collection of pillows include a body-sized one that forms what’s practically a wall between the two of them. Melanie sniffles a little as Georgie moves a few pillows to the nightstand, and Georgie makes a mental note to buy some allergy-friendly/dust-resistant pillowcases soon. Then, there’s getting into the hug. At some point Melanie grabs Georgie’s boob, which is… something to revisit. Eventually, though, they’re settled properly, Melanie’s arms around Georgie’s waist and their legs tangled together.

“Ready to try again?” Melanie asks, in a voice Georgie’s pretty sure is meant to imitate her therapist’s. She appreciates the effort to sound soothing.

“Yeah. Okay. Rewind. So, my first year at Oxford…”

Even with the hug, it’s still not as easy as it was with Jon. With Jon, Georgie was practically in a trance, but here, she has to form every word herself, relive every image. It’s like… if the first time was Georgie walking through a fog-lined street, her boots crunching uncomfortably against the ground, the second time is Georgie walking through the same street, except the fog is gone and it turns out she’d been stepping on bird bones or something equally crunchy and awful the entire time, and every step she takes, Georgie has to watch the bones break under her feet and cane. Not only that, but she cares more about Melanie’s opinion than Jon’s. As she stumbles forward, Georgie forgets details, has to backtrack, and leaves a lot of modifiers dangling in the process.

But in some ways, this is also easier. Easier because the background sounds are Melanie’s breathing and occasional vocal stimming instead of the dead whir of a tape recorder. Easier because the main physical sensation Georgie’s experiencing isn’t her skin prickling from Jon’s intense gaze on her face, but the increasingly firm circles Melanie is rubbing into her neck.

“And… now I’m here,” Georgie finishes, inadequately. “The end. Or, I guess, the End, with a capital E, according to Jon.”

Georgie feels Melanie swallow. Then, “Georgie… you’re saying you lost—”

Georgie had figured that that part would call for more explanation, but luckily, she has an explanation prepared. “My ability to feel fear, I know, not necessarily a bad thing—”

“—your best friend,” Melanie finishes, and Georgie stops breathing. Oh.

“What?”

Melanie shifts against Georgie. “Alex Brooke, right? You said… you said she was your only friend at Oxford, and you said you never saw her again.”

Oh, Georgie thinks again, and feels a swell of love and long-buried grief rise up in her chest, oh.

The first few weeks after she woke up, Georgie had been too numb to even wonder what had happened to Alex. The month after that, she’d tried to call her, three times a day, every day. Then, one day, she’d realized that perhaps she should’ve been checking the newspapers instead of her phone. That night was the first time Georgie’s parents had seen her drunk. They’d looked so afraid—something Georgie would never be able to do again. She’d shouted at them until their concern turned to exasperation and spent the next week in bed biting her nails off.

“I guess I… hadn’t thought about that for a while.”

“I’m so sorry, Georgie,” Melanie says. She means it.

“Thanks,” Georgie whispers, for lack of better things to say, and buries her nose further into Melanie’s hair. Her joints are beginning to protest at her staying in this position for so long, but she keeps holding on. Just a few more minutes.

“Do you…” Melanie starts. “Do you miss her?”

“I…” Georgie clears her throat and tries again. “I don’t know,”

“It’s okay if you don’t,” Melanie says. “ I don’t miss my dad most days, and he died a lot more recently than Alex did.”

“Thanks,” Georgie whispers for the second time that night. “I think… I think about her sometimes, but I don’t know if it’s because I miss her, or because… It’s more like… I used to blame myself for going with her instead of- instead of trying to stop her, or pulling her out as soon as I saw how- how fucked up the situation was. And then I spent a lot of time thinking the opposite, blaming her for not leaving well enough alone. I thought, well, ‘Alex already made her choices, and her choices were bad.’ I wished so badly that my younger self had just… stayed away. Let her friend go to her death alone.”

“And now?”

“Now? After you, and Jon, and… Well, now, I don’t know,” Georgie says, and notices, for the first time, that there’s a lump in her throat and that her eyes are stinging. “I don’t”—and then she starts to cry.

Georgie hears the intake of breath from Melanie when she realizes what’s happening, feels Melanie’s thumb stop moving against her neck and just stay there, pressing into her skin. Georgie feels her own throat, choking out various ugly sounds, hears those sounds tear out of her in the form of sobs and ragged breaths. She thinks she might be getting snot on Melanie’s shirt and hair, but she’s shaking too badly to reach for a tissue to wipe it off.

Alex and Jon and Melanie and Alex. She’d failed Alex, or maybe Alex failed her. She’d let Jon stay in her guest room and watched him waste away, and then she’d practically told him that she wished he was dead and to get out of her flat. Melanie—Melanie had wanted Georgie’s help, and Georgie’s help had happened to be what Melanie needed, and Melanie is here and safe, but just for now, and if Georgie fails Melanie like she’d failed Alex she will be so fucking sad, and if Melanie fails Georgie like Alex had failed Georgie, she will be so fucking sad, and if Melanie ends up in a coma or on the run or if they cross each other’s boundaries too much she will be so fucking sad—

The first thing that cuts through the crying isn’t comfort, but a different pain—an ache in Georgie’s lower back that grows persistently harder to ignore. She groans and turns out of Melanie’s arms, back into starfish position on her side of the bed, and Melanie makes a sound of confusion at the sudden loss.

“I moved, it’s- it’s the arthritis,” Georgie explains between one sob and the next, and Melanie says, “Oh, of course.”

—and if either of them grow resentful of each other, then she will be so fucking sad, and if they have money problems or The Admiral dies she will be so fucking sad, and—

Georgie thinks, dully, that crying on her back is very different from crying on her side. Earlier, Georgie could curl into herself, into Melanie, but now, each of her sobs punches upward into empty air. The closest thing to an embrace she has now is her awareness of the potential weight of the ceiling, hanging seven feet above her, out of reach, just like Alex and Jon and maybe, one day—

“Melanie,” Georgie gasps. “Can you… hold my arm or something?”

“Of course,” Melanie responds immediately. Then, “Um, where exactly is your arm?”

“Uh, if you- if you take your hand and go up a little more—”

“Got it.” Melanie says, moving where Georgie has directed her, and for one beautiful second, all of Georgie’s consciousness narrows down to the warmth of those five fingers curling around her skin. Then, she remembers that she’s lying on her bed crying, and the moment is broken. It’s still better now, though, having something to anchor her, something to remind her that she is more than burning eyes and heaving chest.

It takes a while, but eventually, Georgie begins to calm down, her thoughts and breaths slowing down and her muscles loosening. She fumbles for the tissue box and begins to wipe at her face, then passes a few sheets to Melanie.

“I, uh, snotted on your hair a bit,” she explains. “It might be hard to feel, do you want me to get it?” and Melanie nods.

Once they’re all cleaned up and Georgie has fetched them both a glass of water, Melanie turns to her again.

“Is this…” Melanie starts, then stops. “Is this something you want to talk about more, or something you want to be distracted from?”

“I’m… not sure, actually,” Georgie croaks, wiping at her eyes again to catch any stray saltwater. “I just… I wanted you to hear it; I wasn’t really thinking about afterwards.”

“If I had to guess… That sounds like a distraction thing to me? But… I’m not sure what kind of distraction would make you feel better.”

“Well”—Georgie lets out a wet laugh—“you’re already doing miles better than Jon did, at least.”

“Oh?”

“Yeah. To be fair, I didn’t cry when I told him about everything. But all he had to say was something about how he”—she puts on Jon’s posh accent and deepens her voice—“‘couldn’t believe I never told him’ or something.”

“What a wanker,” Melanie says, and unlike the other times she’s insulted Jon this week, there’s actual heat behind it.

“An inconsiderate dickhead,” Georgie agrees. “But,” she admits, “I think I’ve been worse to him.”

“I… I’d say so too,” Melanie replies, but thankfully, she doesn’t push Georgie any further in that direction. Melanie’s fingers flex against Georgie’s arm, a signal that they’ll pick up this thread of conversation later. “Though I still think the real dickhead here is Ms. Trauma Corpse of Medicalville.”

Georgie’s giggle comes out weaker than she expected. “Yeah?”

“Absolutely.” In her most passable radio announcer voice, Melanie cries, “Melanie hates her! Local medical corpse discovers supernatural method to traumatize her girlfriend. Click here to learn more and/or stab that fucker with a cool knife cane.”

Georgie laughs again, and Melanie continues, this time in a bad American tourist voice. “I visited Trauma Corpse with my family yesterday afternoon, and I have to say, it’s a real piece of shit. The human equivalent of a moldy chunk of cheese, or rice cooked in a saucepan. Zero out of five stars.”

“Would not recommend,” Georgie adds.

“Exactly. And,” Melanie presses on, returning to her normal voice, “what kind of name is ‘Trauma Corpse’ anyway? White people and their ridiculous baby names, seriously!”

This time, Georgie’s laugh is completely genuine. “I agree. It’s disgraceful. Motherfucking ‘Trauma Corpse.’”

“Motherfucking?” Melanie lets out an exaggeratedly affronted gasp. “She fucked your mother, too? A homewrecker on top of everything else? Do Ms. Corpse’s crimes ever end?”

That’s an awful—but distracting—mental image, which was probably the point. “Clearly not.”

Melanie smiles, and then, very slowly and carefully, moves to rest her cheek in Georgie’s palm. Her next words blow warm against Georgie’s wrist. “Seriously, though, Georgie… the evil thing here is The End, and whatever else may have been animating that body. Not you or Alex.”

Georgie lets the sentence linger in the air for a moment. Not Georgie’s fault. Not Alex’s. The thought wraps around her, not quite touching her skin, but warm. Close. Possible.

“Thanks,” Georgie says for the third time that night. She means it.

“God,” Melanie sighs into Georgie’s palm, “I’m not very good at this distraction thing, am I?”

“No, but it’s still helping. A lot, actually.”

“Good,” Melanie says, and chastely kisses Georgie’s wrist.

A slow smile spreads over Georgie’s face at the feeling. Said smile sparks several thoughts that occur to her in quick succession. She considers said thoughts, then performs a quick self-assessment: joints feel better, heart beating steadily, emotions fairly settled except for the part where she is very, very in love.

Finally, after making sure she’s okay one more time, Georgie turns to her side and scoots closer to Melanie. “I’m moving my hand away,” she warns her, and then, “I’m going to press my forehead to yours,” and lastly, “Can I put my hand on your hip? Cool.”

Having gotten into position, Georgie begins to speak, leaning into the Scouse a little bit more because, as she’s learned, Melanie likes it a lot. “Speaking of distracting me… if you really wanted to do that, I have a few suggestions.”

“Oh!” Melanie practically squeaks. Georgie adores her. “Do you mean sex?”

“Yes. I was thinking maybe… you could ride me? If you’d like.”

Even in the dark, Georgie can sense Melanie’s eyebrows rising. “Well… yes, I would like, but… are you okay for it?”

“Hey now,” Georgie says, “just because we’re dating now doesn’t mean we can’t continue to have sex in un-ideal emotional circumstances.” Melanie huffs out a laugh, but Georgie still clarifies, “But yes, I feel good, and I think you’re wonderful, and this isn’t a shitty coping mechanism or anything. Promise.”

“Okay, then,” Melanie says, audibly smiling. “One distraction, coming right up.”

“Emphasis on come—“ Georgie begins, but is cut off rather pleasantly by Melanie’s mouth.

Georgie kisses Melanie back. As she does so, she feels her heart begin to race.

Imagine Eijirou Kirishima and reader

Part 2

Part one here:

I'd like to remind you that English is not my main language, but I am doing my best.

So, you work at Fat Gum's favorite bakery and were used to having him or Suneater buy bread at 3 o'clock until one day Fat Gum's new sidekick Red Riot starts coming instead. You always have difficult interactions that trigger your social anxiety. Until one day you are attacked by a villain and saved by him. When he walks you home, he asks for your number and you give it to him, even thought it is just for the sake of making him stop apologizing.

You are at school, sitting in the back, as always, not paying much attention. This is your senior year and you already know you don't have much room to grow with your anxiety problems, distant family and lack of self confidence. Your intention is just graduating and keeping your job at the bakery.

You can't stop thinking about the villain who held you hostage, this makes you feel your body heavy and your head dizzy. This mixes up to the memories you have of yourself caught in the middle of a terrible fight between a villain and a hero when you were a kid.

You can hear people whispering about seeing you in television the previous night. Your colleages don't talk to you much due to your social anxiety.

"Y/n was held hostage."

"Really?!"

"What weird person comes to school after going through something like that?"

"Did you see that new hero with Fat Gum? Red Riot is the name. He is so handsome!"

"He is two years younger than us!"

"Oh, come on, that is not too much. And he is a real piece, have you seen those abs??"

"Such a nice and deep voice too. He was interviewed, he got all shy, but not weird shy like that Suneater guy."

You should have skipped class, all this conversation was making you nervous.

Suddenly there is a loud message bip that echoes in the class and everyone checks their own phones. The teacher doesn't even bother lecturing them anymore.

But it is none of their phones. It is yours and it rings again, bringing all the attention in class to you.

"Ma...may I go to the restroom?" You ask, almost bursting into a panic attack.

"Yeah, yeah." You see your teacher has no more will.

You run to the restroom and hides in a cabin, unlocking your phone's screen. There are 4 messages in it.

The first one is:

Hello pretty!😚🥰😋

The second one:

Would you care for some 😈🤭🙊☻

The next is just:

💥💥💥💥

And the final one:

You're so lovely! Let's hit the dancefloor together someday?! How about that?💕

You see the simbol of someone typing and a new message arrives:

"Sorry, my stupid friends got my phone. It is Eijirou here... Red Riot."

You keep staring at your phone as the typing message shows up again.

"How are you? I am sorry for last night, it was bad of me to ask for your number that way. I don't want you to think that you need to speak to me just because I saved you."

You ponder what to answer while sitting on the toilet when another message comes.

"Sorry again about my friends. They are really dumb😅"

"It is ok." You reply.

The typing sign shows up again, but then disappears.

"I'm fine." You send. "Just a little traumatized by yesterday."

You wait a while and he texts you back.

"Who wouldn't be, right? I am glad I showed up."

You start typing but he does it too, so you wait.

"Sorry, I seem like a perk talking like this. I really mean I am glad you are ok. It must have been awful for you."

This text makes you smile thinking of his sudden worried expression when realizes he might have sounded arrogant. He always made a cute blush expression when realizing something, like he forgot the money to pay for the bread or he had said something weird.

"I can't thank you enough for saving me." you reply. "People here at my school are commenting about you?"

The answer comes quickly:

"Really?! Nice things, I hope.🦈"

You can't help but laugh. He uses a shark emoji instead of a smily one. This brings his sharp smile to your mind immediately.

"Very nice things. Mainly that you are handsome."

It takes a while before he answers.

"You think I'm handsome?"

You feel your heart coming to your mouth when reading this. It tottally came out the wrong way for you. You quickly type back:

"I have to go back to class! Talk to you later!"

You turn off your phone and spend some more time in the restroom with your red face between your hands. You didn't have to think anything, he IS handsome.

...

When you arrive your house and turn on your phone, there is a message waiting for you.

"Don't forget to pay your phone bill this month. You can do it by acessing..."

You sigh and leave it on the table, then, turn on the TV to watch anything. You don't really know what to do with this free time while the bakery is repaired.

You are in the middle of an episode of a cheesy dorama when your phone vibrates on the table.

"Hey. Are you free?" It is him.

You don't really know what to answer.

"I guess..." you reply after a long time thinking.

"I really didn't want to bother you with this,but Fat Gum asked if you could come to the bakery to tell him a little more of what happened yesterday. He thinks the guy had an accomplice."

Your hands get cold at the thought of it, your heartbeat increases and you start typing a "I can't" but a new message arrives.

"I am at your building's door. Sorry."

"What?!" You reply by impulse.

"Sorry! I must seem like a real creep to you. Fat Gum made me come here to make sure you are safe in your way to the bakery."

You freeze until a new message arrives.

"He can be very persuasive 😅. But if you say no, I understand."

Not wanting to be inpolite to him, you find yourself putting on your coat and boots and going downstairs to meet him. There he is smiling at you with embarassment and wearing those revealing clothes that you are sure are even more appealing today.

"Hey y/n! Thank you a lot for agreeing to come. Fat Gum would totally kick my ass if I showed up alone." he says.

You just nod as he stares at you looking unconfortable, wich makes you feel unconfortable.

"So... let's go?"

You nod again, even more nervous.

You start walking in silence when you see him pull off his phone. Great, you are boring him so much he needs a distraction, you think. Than you feel your phone vibrate.

"Please don't be mad at me." You see his message and look at him from the corner of your eye. He seems really worried.

"I am not mad at you. I just get really nervous around you." You type back.

"Really? Why?"

"I get anxious around people, in general..." you answer him pronto.

"Oh, I have a friend just like you." He replies. "He is a very nice guy."

You put down your phone and look at him. He is giving you the biggest and most friendly smile ever. You immediately put your head down.

"How can I help you being less unconfortable around me?" He sends you after you do it.

"I don't know. It is a thing that happens to me since I was a kid. I am just weird like that." you reply.

"I don't think you are weird." He says out loud and it makes you turn to him. "You are so nice."

You blush completely and get your phone, typing really fast.

"Don't say things like that, it makes me unconfortable." you send him.

"Sorry." He answers back. "But I really think you are a really nice perxnroal !(($$&@(!)....."

You look up and Red Riot is sunk inside of Fat Gum's back.

"Hey! Look where you are walking!" The hero says, pulling him out. Red Riot takes a huge breath and falls on his knees. Fat Gum turns to you. "Y/n!! I am glad you are here! Can you please help me? We need you to describe everything you remember about that night! Anything helps."

He guides you inside the store, where Suneater is trying to organize some merch in a shelf. When he sees you, he drops everything and puts his head down. He has the same effect in you. You REALLY don't want to interact with each other.

"So... can you help us?" Fat Gum asks.

You take a deep breath and look around. You can remember everything that happend. Exactly how it happened. Every detail and second of it. That is your quirk, remembering everything that ever happens to you and around you.

You give such and accurate description of that night that the three heroes get impressed by it.

"And... do you remember seeing anyone with the guy?" Fat Gum asks, amazed.

You pull from your memory the moment you look at the door before the villain comes in. You can see a woman wearing a similar overcoat talking to him and standing by the door, looking out for any incomer. Than you remember her fleeing right at the moment you see Kirishima arrive.

You describe her as a tall lady with black hair, say the exacr brand of her coat and even the color of her shoes. They all stare at you again, impressed.

"You should be a detective, y/n!" Fat Gum says giving you some slaps in the shoulder.

You shake your head as a firm no and he smiles at you.

"Ok, ok. You are right. There are better carrers around." he says"Red Riot! Take y/n home, safe, please."

"Yes sir!" Red Riot replies.

For your surprize, Fat Gum lifts you in the air and hands you to Red Riot as if you were a kid. He takes you in his arms so you don't drop on the floor and you see yourself being carried by that hero damsel style.

You stare at each other in shock. You in literal shock, pale. He with his cheeks blushed.

"That was mean of you." You hear Suneater say to Fat Gum.

"Let them kids be in love." Fat Gum replies. "It is healthy to have some passion by this age."

"No. Y/n is going to pass out." Suneater says.

In fact, you do. The last things you hear are Red Riot say: "How did you know?!" and Suneater reply: "Because I would."

...

When you come to your senses you are lying on your couch, the TV is on showing a documentary about sea life. For a moment you think it was all a dream. That is when you hear:

"Hey! You're awake!"

You scream caugh by surprize by Red Riot, in your Kitchen and almost scare him into dropping the bowls of lamen he had in hands. He is only wearing the pants from his costume and this makes your whole face burn in shame. You almost pass out again.

"PLEASE DON'T WALK AROUND MY HOUSE NAKED!!" you yell, throwing the blanket that was covering you at him.

"Naked?!?!"

After he puts on a shirt that is probably a school uniform,the two of you sit down to eat.

"I am so sorry for what Fat Gum did. This anxiety of yours is really serious." He says.

"It wasn't that." you reply while sucking in some noodles. "I usually get very tired after intentionally using my quirk. It can cause me to pass out like this."

"Really?! So I am sorry we made you use it!"

You shake your head and say:

"It is fine. I am just glad I could be useful for a change."

"For a change?" He repeats staring at you with a pitful face. "You are always helpful! We love your sweet bread."

"I am not the one who makes it. I just sell them to you."

"You are the most special part of it." he says, smiling at you with a soft expression.

You feel your heartbeat increase, but it is not panic attack-like. It is something different.

"Don't say this kind of stuff. You make me nervous." you say, looking at the other side. But you can't help a smile from coming to your face.

"Sorry!" He replies with a sharp teeth smirk.

After you eat, he thanks you for helping and you take him downstairs to say goodbye.

"Here, your keys. I got them from your pockets to get in." he says.

"You are the first visit I get here, besides my mom." you say, getting the key from his hand. "I shouldn't say that, it makes me sound like a weird paria."

"Makes you sound lonely." he replies.

You look at him a little offended by the honesty, but he actually looks concerned about you.

"I prefer it this way." you say, and turn around to get inside.

"Can I call you tomorrow?"

His question makes you freeze at the door.

"Why would you?" you ask without turning to him.

"I want to be your friend."

You look at him from above your shoulder.

"Sorry... I can't befriend a hero."

He looks horrified by your answer and reaches towards you, but you run inside before he can say anything else.

You feel dizzy. Your quirk is forcing itself onto you again. Everytime you remember, you literally live every aspect of the memory again. You live again the moment your father was accidentally killed by a hero.

...

You wake up as always. You eat your breakfast. You get yourself ready to go to school, a normal day this time, you hope. Maybe people won't be speaking about what happened anymore.

You check your phone and see there aren't any messages. This should make you feel relief, but it actually makes you sad.

Another day of school goes by. People are still gossiping about you. Maybe it is a good idea to spend some days away from school. You ask for a license and they give it because of what happened to you.

"What am gonna do at home with all this free time?" you mutter while walking back.

You wish you could work all day along stocking the bakery. This was your favorite part of your job. No clients to attend, no social interaction, no worries, just you and the products getting organized.

Then, you rise your head to the door of your building. You can't believe your eyes.

"What are you doing here?!" You ask by impulse and it sounds a bit aggressive.

"Sorry! Sorry! Fat Gum told me to check on you." Red Riot said moving his hands anxiously.

"Well Fat Gum should let you leave me alone!"

He sighs and shakes his head. He is wearing his school uniform and it makes him look a little less intimidating.

"I lied. I wanted to check on you. It is my fault." he says.

"What do you want from me, Red Riot?"you ask, crossing your arms and staring him with as much determination as you can. Wich is not much.

"Please, call me Eijirou or Kirishima. I... I really want to be friends with you. But... but I also don't want to look like a stalker."

"Well, you are not having much success." you reply.

"How about an Ice cream?"

You get surpsrized by the invite and can't help but noding in agreement. It is a hot day after all. After a while you are both sitting in front of the Ice cream shop having some icream cones.

"I like pistache, but I guess strawberry will always be my favorite Ice cream flavor. It reminds me of my childhood." you are listening to him blab about ice cream flavors for a while now. "I don't mind chocolate, too. It is the top choice among my friends. Except for Bakugo, that creep likes even his ice cream spicy."

You stare at him in silence while eating your vanilla ice cream. He seems unconfortable with it, so he continues to blab about his friends' favorite ice cream flavor.

"Mina likes anything that is pink like her, so she likes strawberry too. But I think it is just because of the color... I can't eat anything grape related anymore because it reminds me of Mineta."

You are actually interested in what he is saying, but you can't bring yourself to answer. Mainly because you don't have friends unlike him.

"Yao-momo is lucky. She can eat as much ice cream as she wants, it becomes energy for her quirk. I have to be careful, this body can only take so much carbs before I have to do some heavy exercising." He hits his own belly and you can hear it make a rock-like sound.

The image of his well defined abs comes back to your mind with your quirk fully activated and you turn bright red. You remember the exact moment he took you in his arms and you coul feel how jacked that guy actually was. You gag with your ice cream and Kirishima starts giving you small slaps in the back to help you.

"So... is vanilla your favorite flavor?" He asks after you stop coffing.

"It is not." you reply. "Smells and flavors bring back memories. I try to avoid things I like too much."

"What do you mean?" Kirishima asks throwing the last piece of the cone in his mouth.

You remain in silence a while but then sigh and decide there is no reason not to tell him.

"Everytime I remember something it is like living that again."

"Wow! That is an awesome quirk!! Imagine re living all of the best moments of your life as much as you want!" he smiles, all excited, as if he was picturing many nice things in his head.

You smile at the sight of him. He is such a bright boy, with a happy energy. It makes you feel good when around him. But, then, you put your head down and sigh.

"The good memories are the saddest ones." you say, and stand up, bowing to him. "Thank you for the ice cream, Kirishima. Nice work for you today."

You turn around to leave, but he holds you by the wrist.

"I will come tomorrow, too." he says, his expression is serious and firm.

You feel like telling him to leave you alone. But it is not what you actually want. You smile at him and nod. You can feel your whole body warm up when he opens the most beautiful sharp teethed smile, so satisfied.

As he lets you go and you go back to your appartment. Each step you take, you remember a bit of him telling you things about him and his friends.

You pass out on your coach as soon as you arrive. It is the first time in a long time that you have a wonderful nap.

Next part here:
