#it’s gonna be soft 🥰

[eliteseven]

If they get married in Consonance, what is Shadowheart and Tav's wedding like and who would be in it?

They do! Just not without some bumps along the way 😅

I think their wedding would be small, tbh. Intimate, just close friends and family. Everyone knows Shadowheart, but that doesn’t mean she’d want everyone there.

I think the sweetest highlights would be:

-Arnell and Emmeline walking Jen down the aisle, obviously. I think Emmeline might stand with Tav, just so both of them feel like they have a parental figure behind them. It means the world to Tav, too- especially since her mother couldn’t be there to do it.

- we all know Serena is a soft crybaby when it comes to Shads, but think about what Shadowheart feels when she looks across the aisle and sees that radiant, soft, beautiful woman with teary eyes awaiting her. She deluded herself into thinking she’d have this with Shar, at one point. That was almost her life. To see Serena there instead is just…🥹 the best feeling in the world. She cries, seeing her in her dress.

-The vows. The two of them vowing to protect each other and be each other’s strength is so meaningful, given what they’ve endured. So long as they’re together, no one can hurt either of them again. It’s beautiful 🥹💕

-Tav writing a soft song for their slow dance? 🥺 them slowly swaying to a song written just for the two of them? Tav making vows to Jen not only with her words but in the very notes that play for their first dance??? Ugly sobbing from me and the entire audience

-Isobel getting to be Jen’s maid of honor. The two of them surviving their own hardships and coming back together as the childhood best friends they were. Through it all- Jen’s near drowning, Isobel’s father, Shar- they’ve outlasted all the threats and finally get to enjoy the loves of their lives

-Karlach and Wyll delighting the guests with stories of how they used to bicker all the time!!! People cannot believe Shadowheart and Tav were ever at odds like that.

-Legions of fans crying online over the fact that they’re now hitched and “officially off the market” (they were never really on the market lol)

-Leg slits in the weddings dresses bc Shadowheart + leg slit = Tav’s favorite thing ever and Serena removing Shads’ garter with her teeth like ugh 🥵

-Serena and Jen sneaking away from their own wedding at some point bc they are insatiable and also WIVES NOW 🥰 They can’t stop looking at the rings and exchanging the most stupid smiles.

-Everyone calling Tav “Mrs. Hallowleaf” or Serena Hallowleaf and it makes her cry happy tears every time 🥺 Shadowheart is SO annoying about it to everyone and refers to “her wife” 80000 times that night and every day after. “Have you checked with my wife? Sorry, my wife is waiting for me. I wouldn’t know, my wife…” etc. she is living her dream to the fullest lol. Emmeline is finally correct in referring to Tav as her wife 😃 she always knew, tbh.

-A very expensive luxury destination honeymoon bc they can 🤷🏻‍♀️ Jen takes Serena somewhere tropical. Like Reithwin, it rains the whole time. Serena doesn’t even notice anymore.

I love fandoms, especially witnessing what fans take away from source material and how fans interpret it based on their experiences. Not to mention the stark difference of interaction between new fans, casual fans, experienced fans, and long-term fans.

I say this because the SVSSS fandom has continuously fascinated me in insisting in discussions that there are parallels between Shen Jiu and Luo Binghe (tell don't show), but in their fanworks, I just see parallels between Luo Binghe and Yue Qingyuan (show don't tell).

And it's not even (fully) a case where they're blending character personalities because they want what the other dynamic has, it's just how the characters are based on canon in two different timelines.

All of this to say, perhaps original draft PIDW (NOT original!PIDW nor pre!SY PIDW which are completely different) was supposed to revolve around the dynamic between SJ and YQY vs SJ and LBH. Perhaps YQY was to be the last hour mastermind, the true foil to LBH.

And fandom is just circling this idea without realising it because, once again, the unreliable narrator that is SY has already convinced this fandom that any version of SJ has to be a/the villain, regardless if it's through his own actions or baseless rumours.

Warning, run-on sentence ahead.

I don't know, mans, but it's gotta mean something that LBH and YQY have such similar life beats of being orphaned and having a tough life but remaining kind/compassionate because they had someone to live for until they didn't which left them empty until they found (or refound in YQY's case) one (1) man to obsess over in an uncomfortably intrusive way with no regards for his feelings and rejections, eventually reaching a position as the most powerful being in existence with a huge caveat that their sword is 83% of that power and is slowly killing them which did nothing to soften said man of their obsession's into showing them kindness leading to the ultimate confrontation between the two in which only one could survive and keep their obsession, not that it mattered because neither of them got to experience his feelings reciprocated, except in another timeline where the same things are happening until their obsession suddenly stops rejecting their (still intrusive) advances even if he is acting a bit silly, but hey take advantage while you can and take advantage they did because now they have that reciprocated feeling (except one still "won" as he gets to keep him for himself) and be thankful that all it took was, in their perspective, a near death fever that drastically changed his personality and most likely left him crippled in some other way, preventing their obsession from not NOT needing them anymore, all-in-all fulfilling their desire to be relied upon again, hooray! 😋😁✌🏽

In all seriousness, at the end of the day people are going to draw connections between characters that fit whatever narrative they understood from the story. SVSSS fandom just seems to be trying to convince others of one narrative while believing on a deeper level of another narrative. It's amusing and makes following the fandom fun.

SIX SIX SIX FORBIDDEN ANGSTY ROMANCE WITH KAVEH?! Inspired from the song shameless by camilla cabello. Reader and kaveh are spies from opposing agencies and they encounter each other at a party (for one of the missions) inside a huge hotel.

When they both reach a VIP room to get their mission done, the owner of the room comes in and so they have to hide in a secret corner. Bodies touching, eyes searching for each other in the light sneaking in and breaths competing in speed.

All their previous encounters, rough words, soft touches and whispering conversations along their gazes come back like a bitter memory to them. They want to touch each other. Melt into one and fuck this forsaken life. But they cant. Their hands are just wandering over one another, fearing to touch another yet burning inside because of the intensity. So their glazed eyes try to satisfy what their heart and bodies cannot.

Anyways hows your day?🤩🤩

ok this took me a while to answer bc i was thinking about how i feel about this LMAO

mmm despite being on opposing agencies you two are on amicable terms, in fact you quite enjoy his company. and of course because your bosses hate each other, they would send their best to try to secure this highly classified and lucrative mission away from their rival.

and so all dolled up you get, in your best dress as you make your way into the ballroom, an intricately designed mask on your face as you scan the crowd for your target. but instead of the objective your eyes land on a familiar figure, one whose eyes are already looking at you.

despite the sea of people between you two and the mask covering half your face, you still managed to find each other. and maybe you could blame his brilliant red eyes for being hard to miss, but you have no excuse for how your legs start to walk towards him, nor the smile that graces your lips at the thought of meeting him once again.

kaveh can’t lie and say that he didn’t first think about possibly crossing paths with you again when he received this mission. knowing the importance his boss placed on it, it was obvious that part of the reason why was because his rival agency—your agency—would be competing for it as well. would it be unprofessional of him to be excited for a mission just because he might run into you? kaveh doesn’t spare it a second thought as he makes his way into the party, he himself dressed to the nines as per the dress code. though that isn’t the only reason he’s put in the extra effort to look nice.

his breath catches when he finally spots you, even with the mask on he knows it’s you. from the way you walked to your dazzling smile, kaveh feels his heartbeat quicken as you approached him, his own two feet taking him to you and meeting you halfway.

pleasantries and smiles exchanged as you spoke, keeping a comfortable distance between each other despite the small tug in your heart to take another step, lean a little closer. but you easily quash such thoughts, your mission still in mind as you spot your target out of your periphery.

with sharp eyes, you observed your target, disappearing behind a door with a lady on his arm. it doesn’t take much to piece together that they are looking for a more private spot, and if you were to get close you needed to blend in. a plan quickly formulates in your mind, your eyes shifting back to the man in front of you.

it doesn’t even take a second for kaveh to catch on, spotting the target of the mission and putting two and two together. in his mind he knows what you’re doing, he knows that as you take a step forward, closing the distance between you two, and your eyes softens and your body language takes on a more flirtatious undertone. he knows you’re just putting on a show, in a party full of masked people, it’s not uncommon for two people to meet and follow each other behind closed doors.

and so he lets it happen; he lets you lead him by his hands, your smile pulling him in and soon you find yourselves in a hallway right behind the same door the target has entered. just as quickly your body language changes again, now more professional and serious. although kaveh knows this mission is just as important to his agency as it is to yours, right now he just can’t find it in himself to care about it all. he’ll gladly let you take it, and face the consequences later.

he watches as you navigate your way in the unknown space, trailing behind you while still maintaining a keen eye of his surroundings—a skill that was drilled into him since his early days on the job. the hallway leads down several doors and prior reconnaissance of the building telling you which doors lead to what. if your target is as high-ranking as you were told, an intelligent guess leads you down the hallway, deeper into the building.

the further you go the less doors there are, now just a long continuous hallway turning into a corner. the carpeted floor helps to silence your steps, but in turn muffles the steps of waiter you can’t see just around the bend, exiting the room after serving an important guest that you can only assume to be your target.

with no where to hide in the empty hallway, getting caught sneaking around where you aren’t supposed to be would be detrimental to the mission. the server’s trolley was already turning the corner and you needed to do something now, something that no one would question what two people in a secluded hallway are doing. you’re quick to think your feet, an apologetic look in your eyes when you turn to kaveh before pushing him gently but as quickly as you can against the wall.

without a word you kissed him, hands finding its way to his cheeks as soft lips pressed against each other, albeit a little rough and messy. kaveh doesn’t need a word; his hands wrapping around your waist and he pulls you close, easily keeping up with you as the server lets out a shocked gasp when he finally turns the corner. you hear a flurry of sounds as the poor worker scurries past you two making out against the wall, apologising profusely with his head down.

out of the corner of your eye, you make sure the server was gone before pulling away, taking a generous step away as you compose yourself. not the most graceful kiss but you needed it to look believable. you bowed your head a little, muttering a stiff apology before continuing on your way, as if it was all in a day’s work.

kaveh doesn’t say a word, his eyes merely following your figure as you walked away. the wall behind him was cool in contrast to how hot his body felt, supporting him in such a crucial moment where he felt his legs turn to jelly with you so close to him, invading his senses so suddenly. no amount of providence could have possibly prepared him for how good it felt to have you close, how your body felt pressed against his. how right it was.

and he can’t say it doesn’t sting when you march on forward, seemingly unaffected with only the mission in mind while he was left reeling, a little out of breath and his mind a mess. what is a man to do? does he run after you? and what then, what could he possibly say to you? or does he leave quietly and give up probably the closest chance he has to learning how you feel? the seconds tick by as you get further and further from him, and kaveh makes up his mind.

—

a/n: i think it’ll be funny if the bosses of the opposing agencies are actually like lovers to enemies and that’s why they hate each other LMAO also i hope that everyone that read through this whole thing was jebaited by suggestive angsty romance and instead got soft pining and longing YIPPEEE

Something Lost, Something Found Chapter 11 preview! 🪱💕

He lasts a day.

The breaking point is when Robin brings him out on the lake the next day.

They're going fishing. Robin’s fitted him out in a silly pair of boots and a lifejacket. She offered him a fisherman’s hat, but Steve just sneered in distaste. Robin ended up wearing it instead.

Steve’s kinda always wanted to row a boat, so he insisted in getting to do that instead of getting the motor up and running. Robin just shrugged and looked on in amusement.

When they’re finally at the right spot, Robin drops down the tiny anchor and helps him lift the oars back inside the boat.

Then she turns to Steve. “There we go. Now. Are you ready to learn?”

He makes a bit of a grimace.

“I don’t know. I'm not sure you can ever be ready for something like this."

Robin laughs at him, shaking her head.

"Oh, Steve, Steve, Steve. We'll make an honest fisherman out of you yet. You just have to get over that first step. Face your fears. Here." She reaches into the big supply bag she brought with them, most likely containing all the fishing supplies — hooks, bait, tools, extra line, you name it, the bag's got it.

Then she takes up a small plastic jar from it and pops the lid off.

"Take the rod." She instructs him.

He takes it, rests the handle on the floor of the boat and leans it towards himself, holding the end where the hook is secured into the bobber.

“Here. Hold your hand out,” Robin says.

He does, and she dumps a worm right into his palm.

Steve stares at it. Watches it wiggle around in his hand like it’s taunting him with its very existence.

He feels like he’s loosing his goddamn mind.

“Steve?” Robin prompts.

It's her tone of voice that does it, the softest bit of concern about him staring at a goddamn worm.

He can't help it. He starts laughing.

A full-blown, hysterical laughing fit.

Over a worm.

Robin stares at him, her large eyes wide and startled, and she slowly moves forward and kinda… scrapes the worm out of his hand back into the jar.

It only makes him laugh harder.

"Steve, you are freaking me out. Are you okay? Are you scared of worms? What's going on?"

He shakes his head in response, not wanting her to worry, but he's having a really difficult time collecting himself here.

"O-okay," Robin says, sounding very uncertain. "Just… get it out of your system. There there." She pats his knee, comforting him like he's crying. He loves her so much.

"I'm sorry," he says, still laughing. He even has to wipe his goddamn eyes. "I'm sorry. It's just… the fucking worm."

"What about the worm?" Robin asks patiently, though he can tell she's kind of freaking out too. It's very unlike him to lose his composure like this, especially over seemingly nothing.

Steve holds a hand up, gesturing for her to wait while he finishes wiping his face with his gross worm hands. Jesus fucking christ.

He finally lets out a deep sigh, laughter all out of his system like Robin encouraged. She's still patting his knee, like she thinks he's upset. Maybe he is, but it's hard to tell.

He meets her gaze. Almost starts laughing again when he sees the terrified look on her face, but he manages to keep it together.

"I'm sorry. Yesterday was… a very worm-themed day," he says.

"What?" Robin asks, sounding downright exasperated. He doesn't blame her.

Steve takes another deep inhale, snickering a little bit still.

"I kissed Eddie."

Robin just stares at him.

Her jaw goes slack, mouth falling wide open.

Oof, right in the feels. And my brain has been churning out thoughts on this damn au the last couple days I'm actually gonna sit down this afternoon and plot it all out. And I think I'm gonna go differently on it with this one and have it just be ome long story instead of broken up into chapters so it kinda fits more into the old myth style-ish. I'm so excited

@saturnpanther thanks for the dream ramble prompt!! here's what i got written in roughly 10 minutes:

Inhibition–Crenny

He should stop. It’s the loudest thought echoing in his brain as he follows Kenny down the sidewalk, somewhere between 2 and 3am. Craig’s a light sleeper though and Kenny knows after all this time that he doesn’t lock his window. He’s an easy target for these witching hour shenanigans. Kenny grins back at him as if he can feel the daggers Craig is glaring at him and likes it. Craig scoffs. He wishes Kenny wouldn’t pester him, that he had a shred of inhibition in his body.

That would be nice, and boring.

“Do I get to know this time?” Craig asks.

“Do you wanna?” Kenny raises an eyebrow.

“Yes. Literally every time.”

��Oh yeah,” Kenny hums, considering this. He turns back on his heels, his back once again to Craig. So tonight would not be the night, then, that Kenny would finally tell him where they were going before they got there. Craig sighs, resigned, and keeps walking.

If he’s being fair, he does enjoy these walks. South Park has gotten so commercial recently, full of so many noises and people that Craig doesn’t care for. It’s nice to have this quiet secret, just the two of them at night while the snow was turning from powder to something more substantial. The stars are high up in the sky— the spring constellations in winter, telling Craig just how late (early?) it is. He reaches up and traces the question mark of Leo with his finger.

“Which one is that one?” Kenny asks. He’d stopped when Craig had.

“Leo,” Craig replies.

“Oh, the lion one,” Kenny grins. “Cool.” He growls, making a claw motion with his hands. Craig snorts, quiet, more just a quick breath out his nose. Maybe he should take a page out of Kenny’s book and drop his inhibitions a bit. He cocks his hand in a paw motion and gives the most halfhearted growl to ever exist, but the way Kenny’s eyes light up are as if he just performed a one-man performance of the Lion King.
