Herbie (M) ~Bang Chan
Tumblr media
Pairing: Mechanic!Chan x F.Reader Themes: Smut | Some Fluff | Strangers to Friends to Lovers Word Count: ~10k | AO3 Synopsis: Chris was the best mechanic you’d ever met. He was good at his craft, capable of bringing your dingy car back to life time and time again. He was, also, excellent at riling you up just by existing, which wasn’t the best when you were absolutely convinced he just wanted to be friends with you. But maybe, just maybe, he’d prove you wrong. [You can find part two here]. Warnings: curvy/chubby reader · reader is clueless · personification of an inanimate object (the car is referred to by name and male pronouns sometimes) · improper use of car related vocabulary probably (author is clueless on the topic, they don’t even know how to drive) · discussions of weight and usage of the word fat (in a very neutral manner) · Christopher is Stronk · special guest appearance: Jisung.
Due to all the abovementioned warnings, this story is intended for an adult audience only. Minors please do not interact.

Author’s Note: mechanic!chan was suggested by an “anon” (👀), after they watched this performance, and i felt inspired by the suggestion, so i decided to write a little something for it. a little something that somehow managed to gather more words than i ever expected, as usual. anyway, hope it doesn’t disappoint :^)
fun fact: i dreamt once that i wrote a fic called herbie, so i guess the prophecy has been fulfilled now.

Christopher Bang. 
The man who’d saved your ass countless times in the past handful of months. The man who’d been plaguing your thoughts since the very first moment you entered his repair shop.
And to think it was your older brother’s fault. ‘Get a second-hand car’, he said. ‘It’s cheap and super reliable’, he said. ‘Yes, of course it’ll be fine’, he said. Your brother was, ultimately, full of bullshit. You’d never trust his opinion ever again.
Getting a second-hand car was quite possibly the worst financial decision you’d ever taken.
At first you’d been incredibly excited. You even named it Herbie, after the famous car that was… Well, called Herbie. 
With Herbie, you’d be able to get to work faster, you’d no longer have to stay in uncomfortable social situations just because you were waiting for your ride for the night to take you home, you’d no longer have to balance grocery bags on your tiny bicycle, you’d be independent. 
For two months, you were living your best life with Herbie. But then he started showing The Signs.
It started with the AC not turning on, then, the wipers wouldn’t wipe, until eventually, he shut down completely. Which wouldn’t have been so bad, had it not happened while you were driving on the fucking highway. To say you were pissed was an understatement. That day, when that happened, you were fortunate enough to be with your friend, Jisung. 
Not only did Jisung calm your fit of rage, but he also told you he had a friend who fixed cars for a living. ‘He’s very reliable. He won’t overcharge you, really. I vouch for him, trust him with my life at this point’, which, honestly, finding a mechanic these days that wasn’t trying to find problems that weren’t there to overcharge you was hard, so you took Jisung’s advice and took Herbie to Wolfgang: Repair Shop.
That was where you saw Chris the first time.
You could still remember the exact moment your eyes landed on him. Although, to be fair, the first thing you saw were his boots peeking out from below a car.
“Hello?” You heard a thud after you greeted the pair of legs, followed by a very graceful ‘Fuck!’.
“Just one second!” He slid from under the car, and when he stood from the creeper, you honestly weren’t prepared.
Broad shoulders, strong, defined arms, a mess of curls on his head, plush, pink lips, and that nose. Jisung had forgotten to give you the most important detail about his friend, the fact that he was drop-dead gorgeous. Even with the oil coating his exposed arms, hands, and the smudge on his cheek, he was probably one of the finest specimens you’d ever seen.
“Can I help you?” He smiled, and God, he had dimples, too. Of fucking course he had to have dimples…
“I’m–I–” You were embarrassing yourself, barely even capable of forming a coherent sentence, all as he looked at you with a glint of amusement in his eyes. So you got your bearings, taking a deep breath. “My car keeps dying on me. I’m a friend of Jisung’s, he told me to come to you”.
“Oh!” His eyes widened and he honestly looked beyond surprised. “You are Jisung’s friend?” There was a slight tone of disbelief in his voice, and the way he looked you up and down honestly confused you a bit. Was there a problem with your outfit? It was a bit warm out and this was a nice, comfortable dress… Maybe you were supposed to wear something different to a car repair shop? Maybe it was one of those social rules no one talked about but you were supposed to just know they existed. 
Regardless, you decided to ignore the thought altogether, because he started talking again. “I’m Chris. I’d offer my hand, but I don’t think you’d like to get yours covered in motor oil”, he chuckled, wiping his hands on a rag that hung from his belt, and it genuinely made you smile. “C’mon, let’s take a look at your car and see what we can do. Hm?”
That was how it all started. Chris was polite, he certainly knew his way around these things, and every time you had a problem with Herbie you went to his shop. At some point, you became well acquainted with him, it was impossible not to when Herbie kept dying practically every other week, and when Chris was just so friendly.
You enjoyed spending time at the shop with him, and sometimes you wondered if you were being weird or annoying by staying a bit longer than any customer probably would, but Chris seemed to be just as engaged in the conversation as you were every time, so that spark of doubt in you always died very quickly. 
After a couple of months, Chris simply handed you a piece of paper. ‘Here’s my number. Text me whenever you need’.
And you did. Although, you took a while to text him. You finally did it only because Herbie had started to leak water; after all, that was what he had given you his number for. But it seemed like after that Chris and you just… started to talk about other things, completely unrelated to Herbie.
“You slut, who you texting with that smile on your face? Did you finally get yourself a man?” Jisung teased you one day when you were hanging out with him, supposedly watching movies.
You scoffed, rolling your eyes. “As if. You know the only thing I attract are mosquitoes, and it’s only because they want to suck my blood. It’s just Chris. He sent me this funny video of Wolfgang, wanna see?”
Wolfgang was Chris’ dog, an overly excited husky that seemed to be a walking disaster. You told Chris once in passing that you liked dogs, that it cheered you up whenever you saw them do their Dog Things, and since then he started to send you pictures or videos of his dog regularly, which you highly appreciated, they did bring up your mood every time.
Jisung blinked at you. “Christopher Bang? My friend Chris?”
“Yeah? Which other Chris do we both know?” You returned your eyes to your phone, chuckling at a meme Chris had just sent you.
“What’s he sending you? Lemme see”, Jisung grabbed your phone out of your hands, ignoring your protests altogether. “Huh… Would you look at that…”
“Why are you scrolling? Stop that, it’s a private conversation”, you lunged at your friend, trying to get the phone out of his hands. After a bit of jostling he finally relented, and you huffed as you diverted your attention back to the chat with Chris.
Jisung called your name, and you looked up from your phone to your friend, seeing his confused face. “You… You do know he’s flirting with you, right?”
“What?” You laughed at that. “Don’t be ridiculous”.
“I’m being serious”, Jisung turned to face you fully on the sofa, looking at your face very intently. He was quiet for a moment, but then he was gasping–rather dramatically, if you might add. “Oh my God! You haven’t noticed!”
“There’s nothing to notice, Jisung. Chris isn’t flirting with me, don’t be silly”, you chuckled just at the thought. As if the Christopher Bang would be flirting with you.
“You seriously can’t be this dense”, Jisung scoffed, turning back to the movie. “You do you, then. I’m telling you, though. He’s one hundred percent flirting with you”.
How ludicrous. Chris had shown zero interest in you for as long as you’d known him. You were sure he only saw you as a friend at best, and that was only because you were on ‘sending memes’ basis now, before you were just his customer with the dingy car that kept needing repairs. 
You’d admit, though, that after a handful of months, Chris had become a really close friend. He’d text you every morning without fail. Most of the time, he’d send you a picture while he was walking his dog. It could be a picture of Wolfgang, or a picture of the sunrise, or a selfie–those were the hardest ones to look at, to be honest. 
At some point, you realised you had developed a crush on him, and looking at his face in those selfies, still a bit swollen with sleep, with his hair a bit tousled, or with a beanie over his head covering his eyebrows, looking incredibly cuddly, wasn’t helping you cope much.
Sometimes he’d text you while he was in the gym, too. Which would’ve been fine, had he not also started to send you selfies when he was there. They were never anything too revealing, he’d always be fully clothed, but the sight of his reddened hands, his bulging veins after lifting, his flushed face, and just overall sweaty form was just something you didn’t need. It always heated you up, made you suddenly feel like your mouth was just too empty, it’d made your mind wander into very dangerous, and very horny territory. 
It was already hard enough to watch Chris work on Herbie. Whenever he did and you were at the shop, you’d start to fixate on the way the muscles of his exposed arms moved, or how his ass looked when he was bending over the motor to do whichever magic he needed to do, it always made you wonder if he’d be able to perform that magic on you, if his hands would touch you as delicately but as precisely as they did with Herbie’s components, or how it’d be like if you were the one bending over the bonnet, preferably with him just right behind you… Regardless, seeing him also at the gym through his pictures was just too much. He’d sometimes ask you weird questions while he was there, too, which always left you a bit confused.
‘mind if i ask what’s your weight? you dont have to tell me if you dont want to, i’m just curious. i’m trying to bulk up, you see. mine’s…’ You didn’t particularly have a problem with the question itself, you just found it odd that he asked you that out of the blue, and for a brief moment you wondered if he’d been trying to say you were fat–which wouldn’t have been the first time that happened to you, having lived most of your life as person with extra fat on their body for what was considered ideal in this society’s standards had already numbed you to questions like these.
You hadn’t told him right away, you simply sent him a ‘why? are you gonna tell me to lose weight? lol’ to which he replied a string of messages in quick succession ‘oh god no. far from that, you’re perfect just as you are honestly. i’m just curious cuz i want to get to…’ He’d go on about his goals and what-not, and you decided to humour him, since it genuinely didn’t seem like he was trying to make fun of you, he actually never brought up the topic again after that.
Chris wasn’t just handsome, he was also cute, and a bit of a dork. A dork with extensive knowledge in cars and each of their components, but with even more extensive knowledge in pokemon and each and every single type.
‘Ice is strong against dragon and ground, you see? So I have to fight this Garchomp with a pokemon that can do ice attacks, but that can also withstand his attacks, like Gyarados, you know?’ The first time Chris pulled an explanation like that, while he was still covered in Herbie’s oil, you understood why he was friends with Jisung. They were both just dorks. Gym rats and dorks. The oddest combination you could possibly think of, but somehow it just added to their charm. To Chris’ charm specifically.
That balance of his technical knowledge, his hotness, and his dorkness, coupled with just how good of a person he genuinely was–always willing to help, always ready to stand his ground for things he believed in–only made you fall stupidly deeper for him. But you decided to keep these feelings to yourself, you liked having Chris by your side, not only because he was the only one who seemed to be able to bring Herbie back to life, but also because he was just a good friend, and you were sure that if you confessed your feelings things just wouldn’t be the same.

Taking Herbie out these days was always a gamble. You never knew when he was going to break down, but sometimes you really had to take a leap of faith. Most of the time it all went fine, but today, it seemed like he wasn’t in a mood to cooperate. Herbie had decided that breaking down in the middle of nowhere at twenty hours on a Friday was the best idea, which left you on the brink of frustrated, angry tears. 
So, obviously, you called the only person you knew could help you in this situation.
“You alright?” Chris asked as soon as he arrived and stood in front of where you were leaning on your car. “Oh, God. Are you crying? Why are you crying?”
“I’m just so fucking done with this car”, you brought your hands to your face, sobbing once the frustration that had built inside of you couldn’t be contained anymore.
“Hey…” You felt Chris’ body heat practically envelop you when he moved into your space, and, had you not been crying like a baby, you’d probably feel a bit flustered about it. “Are you– Can I– Do you want a hug?”
You just nodded–still covering your face with your hands–because of course you wanted a hug. You were trembling with your quiet sobs, so a hug sounded like absolute heaven at this moment, and when Chris finally leaned in closer, wrapping his arms around your shoulders to pull you to him, the fact that Herbie had left you stranded in the middle of nowhere seemed so insignificant now.
Chris was so incredibly warm. The way he softly caressed your back helped ease your trembles, and, eventually, the tears stopped, too. So you finally moved your hands away from your face, bringing your arms around his waist to hug him as well, just as you buried your face on his shoulder–probably leaving small puddles of tears on the fabric of his boilersuit.
That was when you noticed his attire. Similar to how he dressed when he was at the shop, but clearly completely clean. His boilersuit even smelt like his fabric softener still, and… was he wearing perfume?
You pulled yourself a bit from him, and his calloused hands cradled your face immediately to wipe your tears with his thumbs. You could feel heat spread on your cheeks as he did.
Chris was so close to you still, the heat of his palm on your cheeks seeped into you, shooting straight to your fluttering heart. He truly was incredibly handsome, and as you looked him in the eyes the words left your mouth before you could even think twice about them.
“Wow. Your eyelashes are so pretty”.
A look of surprise crossed Chris’ features, and you saw his Adam’s apple bob, right before he pulled his hands away from your face and opened the driver’s door of your car, giggling. Giggling in that utterly Christopher way he always did.
“Well, yours are, too”, he said while he pulled the lever near the wheel to release the safety latch so he could open the bonnet of your car.
For a moment, you could’ve sworn his ears were red, and you wondered briefly if he might’ve been feeling warm with his boilersuit on, since it was warm tonight, which was why you had decided to wear a dress in the first place. “Were you at the shop when I called?”
“Was on my way”, Chris rounded your car, finally standing in front of it and opening the bonnet. “Ahh, Herbie. You’d certainly seen better days, haven’t you, buddy?” He took his phone from his pocket, switched on the torch, and handed it to you. “Could you hold this for me? Please?”
“Why were you going to the shop this late?” You asked as you pointed the light towards Herbie’s insides.
“Was gonna work on the bike. Angle this a bit, please”, Chris took your hand, angling it however he needed it so he could see whatever it was he needed to see–for you he might as well had been doing dark magic on your car. You saw him push cables around like he knew what each of them was for, which he surely did, this was his livelihood, after all, but it all just looked the same to you, so you were immensely relieved that he was able to help you out tonight.
“You fix cars all day and still have the drive to work on your bike in the evening?” You chuckled, just as Chris moved your hand to point the light somewhere else.
“You’d be surprised how much drive I can have when I’m doing something I like”, there was a smile on his face as he said it, and honestly you couldn’t help but believe him. Just like you couldn’t help but wonder what else he could like that’d fuel that drive of his… “Alright, we’re gonna have to jumpstart it. Gimme a sec”.
Chris left your side for a moment, and he returned almost immediately after with a jumper cable in his hands. Once he had attached it to his 4X4’s and Herbie’s battery, he instructed you to go back to the driver’s seat and to turn the ignition at his signal.
You did as asked, and as soon as you did Herbie came back to life, making you heave a sigh of relief. Chris appeared by your door a few seconds after. “Let’s go to the shop, yeah? I don’t think he’ll make it much further, to be honest”.
And honestly, you didn’t think your car would make it far, either. So you followed Chris’ 4X4 out of the area and through the familiar roads to his repair shop. You couldn’t help but feel immensely grateful, not only because he was helping you now, but because he always did it. Whenever you’d needed him, he’d always been there, which did nothing to appease the ever growing feelings you had for him.
When you made it to Chris’ shop, he simply opened the gate to the garage and signalled you to come in. You got off your car as soon as it was parked, just as Chris was unzipping his boilersuit, revealing his black vest top underneath and his admittedly mouthwatering arms as he tied the top part of the garment around his waist.
“Thank you, Chris. Really”, you told him as soon as he stood in front of you, handing him Herbie’s keys when he opened his palm.
“Oh, please”, he waved his hand as if to dismiss the thought, as if what he did was something not even worth thanking him for. “I’m glad you called, I would’ve felt really bad if I couldn’t have helped you with this”, he gave you a smile, one of his blinding smiles that made his dimples appear on his cheeks and his eyes disappear, and you suddenly felt your cheeks warm up and like your heart was going to burst out of your chest.
Chris made sure to place a wedge behind each of Herbie’s wheels just so the car was secure in place, and then turned to you. “Come with me”.
He guided you to the sink by the corner of the shop. Pumping some soap into his hands and opening the tap, he started to generously lather the suds all over his hands. 
“Come here, you need to wash your hands, too”, Chris took your hands in his, getting them all soapy, making sure to spread the soap between each of your fingers, going as far as to rub your hands between his, or lace his fingers with yours to fulfil the task.
You couldn’t help but chuckle. “Chris, I didn’t touch anything”.
“You sure?” He chuckled, but his motions didn’t stop. “It’s better to be safe than sorry, no?”
“I guess”, you didn’t think your cheeks could’ve felt any hotter. You seriously hoped it wasn’t that noticeable.
After thoroughly rinsing your hands under the tap, he gave you a clean rag to dry them on just as he motioned for you to follow him again. So you did, walking past his half restored bike and into his office.
Chris placed Herbie’s keys on the designated case that corresponded to the number in which you had parked your car, and then turned to the minifridge. “You want a soda?”
“Sure”, you took the glass bottle from him as soon as he opened it and handed it to you. You always found it odd that he had glass bottles and not cans, considering how little space he had in that fridge. When you asked him about it once Chris simply went on about how ‘Cans just don’t taste the same! The soda tastes so much better when it’s drunk from a bottle’, and as soon as he said that you just couldn’t untaste it anymore. Glass bottles were, ultimately, superior.
“‘Suppose I’ll get an uber”, you sighed after you took a sip of your drink, walking a bit so you could lean against the wall.
“An uber? Nonsense, I’ll drive you home, don’t worry”, Chris took a sip of his drink, just as he leaned on his desk.
“Aw, c’mon. You already went out of your way to rescue me. I don’t wanna take more of your time”.
Chris scoffed. “Don’t make me beg”.
“I wouldn’t dare”, you chuckled, although you were suddenly curious of what would happen if you did make him beg… “But what about your bike?”
“The bike won’t be ready anytime soon. The only reason I was coming here was because I was restless at home. Now I’d much rather spend some time with you, to be honest”, Chris took a sip of his drink again, and suddenly holding his gaze felt like too much, but the way your eyes decided to focus on his Adam’s apple moving with every sip he took wasn’t that much easier.
“You know…” Chris said after a few moments of silence, pulling your eyes back up from where they had been glued to his neck. “I think it might be time for you to consider letting Herbie go. It’s been months, and I honestly don’t think I can save him”.
You sighed. “I know… But I fear I’ve grown attached to the damned thing. Besides, wouldn’t you lose your most regular customer?” You added the last part with a chuckle, taking a sip of your drink right after.
Chris chuckled. “So you’re saying you only talk to me ‘cause of Herbie?”
You almost choked on your drink. “N–no. Of course not. You’re a good friend, Chris. Truly”. 
He placed his drink on the desk, and a smirk made its way onto his face. “Just a good friend?”
“Uhh… A great friend?” You laughed softly, drinking some more of your soda.
Chris went silent for a moment. As you saw him worry at his bottom lip and looking anywhere but where you were standing, you wondered if you had said something wrong. That was, until he chuckled.
“I don’t think I’m a good friend, to be honest”, he crossed his arms over his chest, bouncing his leg a bit. “Good friends don’t secretly hope for their friend’s car to break down so they’d call them for help”. 
You were just bringing your bottle to your lips, but his words made you stop in your tracks. “What?”
Chris looked at you for a moment. His mouth opened and closed a few times, but then he was tipping his head to the side and laughing. “God, I seriously didn’t believe Jisung at first, but you really are dense for some things, aren’t you?” 
“I am… so confused right now”.
Chris shook his head a bit, and he walked closer to you. “Let me tell you a secret…” He got into your space, close enough that you could smell his perfume, and the proximity made you swallow the saliva that seemed to have suddenly pooled in your mouth. Leaning into you, he brought his mouth to your ear, whispering. “I really, really like you”.
You blinked, and you honestly felt like your brain had short-circuited. “You… What?”
No way was Christopher Bang telling you he liked you. There was just no way. You would’ve noticed… You would’ve, right? You definitely would’ve… Wouldn’t have you noticed?
Suddenly you remembered Jisung. How he’d tried to tell you multiple times throughout the past few months that Chris was flirting with you, that you should shoot your shot, but you honestly had never believed him, because it seemed just so ridiculous to you that Chris could even look at you in that light.
“I’ve, uh… liked you for a while. A long, long while”, Chris pulled himself away from your space completely, and he looked at your face for a moment. A moment that you stayed completely silent, still trying to process the fact that Chris liked you… And for a while now.
You saw his brows furrow as he chewed on his bottom lip. Then he was speaking again. “I just… couldn’t keep quiet about it anymore. When we hugged earlier I realised I wanted to do that more, and that I should probably grow a pair and tell you already. I’d like to take you on a date, if you want, but I can understand if you don’t want to…”
He was rambling. A lot. Saying a lot of things. This was the Nervous Chris you’d only seen a couple of times, the Nervous Chris whose coping mechanism was just to jump to conclusions and talk in a single breath. Suddenly, it all seemed to click into place. The good morning texts, the selfies, the late night talks at the shop after Herbie had died on you time and time again, it was so clear to you now.
“If you don’t like me back that’s fine, you can just say so, I won’t take it to hear–”
You kissed him.
It was barely anything. Just a peck on the lips, but it was enough to shut him up, enough to make his eyes go wide in surprise, and, to your own selfish delight, enough to bring a delicate blush to his cheeks.
“I like you, too”, you said simply, still a bit shocked by his confession, a bit shocked by your confession coming out of your own mouth. You honestly never thought you’d be able to say that to him out loud, but you did. Just like he had.
Chris looked stunned for a bit. But that stunned look didn’t last long, it quickly turned to something else, something raw and incredibly alluring. Stepping into your space again, he brought a hand to the back of your head, holding you in place just as his other hand took the bottle from your hands to place it on the tool cart next to you, right as his lips found yours.
This kiss was nothing like the peck you’d given him. It was loaded with need and want and lust. So much of all of it you couldn’t even believe how blind you’d been. Every press of his lips against yours kindled the fire that started to burn in the pit of your stomach. When his hand joined the other cradling your head, you just couldn’t help the small whimper that came out of your mouth, and that tiny noise seemed to have spurred Chris on, enough to press you flush against the wall as his tongue made its way inside your mouth, as your arms wrapped around his waist.
Heat was spreading quickly inside of you, and you were starting to feel lightheaded–whether it was due to the shock, or due to how Chris was pressing you against the wall, or due to the motions of his kiss and the lack of oxygen, you weren’t too sure. One of your hands laid palm flat on the small of his back, while the other pressed between his shoulder blades, and the hum that came out of his mouth seemed to have travelled all the way to your heart, making it beat even faster in your chest.
Chris detached his mouth from yours, only for a moment, enough to talk. “Does this mean…” He pressed another kiss on your lips. “That you’d like…” And another. “To go on a date?” This kiss lasted a bit longer than the others, it lasted until you nodded your head.
“Yes”, you pressed a kiss on his lips, just as your arms moved to loop around his neck and his wrapped around your waist, keeping you impossibly closer to him. “Would love to”.
He hummed again, and he immediately resumed the soft movement of his lips on yours. Keeping you tight against him for a while. Until it seemed like his brain had caught up with him. 
“We should probably stop”, but he didn’t stop kissing you, just like you didn’t, either. You just couldn’t get enough of his full lips on yours, of his tongue pushing against yours.
“Do you want to?” Your fingers made their way through the curls at the back of his head, holding the strands between them just how you’d dreamt to do so many times throughout the past handful of months.
“God, no”, and you believed him, not only because of how desperate he sounded when he said it, but also because he just kept kissing you, talking in between quick pecks of his lips. “But I don’t want… to make it seem… like this is all I want… You know?”
You knew. You knew because you were thinking exactly the same thing. You could feel him against your pubic bone, hard, warm, and it all made you incredibly wet, maybe embarrassingly so. But this was Chris, it was hard to feel embarrassed with him, which was part of the reason why you had developed feelings for him in the first place.
You hummed, just to let him know that you understood what he was trying to say without removing your lips from his. As you kissed him, as you felt him and his warmth, your mind started to cloud a bit. The mix of his motions, of the months and months of pining for him, and the even more months of self-inflicted celibacy clearly made it so logical thinking wasn’t your strongest attribute at this time.
“Would you still… take me on a date… if I sucked you off right now?” The words flew past your mouth between kisses, too fast for you to even think twice and stop them.
“Shit…” Chris pulled himself away from your lips completely, looking you in the eyes. As you took in the flush on his face, his plush, kiss-bitten lips, and his blown pupils, you couldn’t help but think just how incredibly beautiful he looked like this. “Are you being serious?”
“Dead serious”, your chest was heaving, and your fingers carded through his hair, lightly scratching his scalp with your nails, making Chris bite his lip and take a deep breath.
“Of course I would. I’d take you to the fucking moon even if I got it wet right now”.
You chuckled at that, and pressed a brief kiss on his lips. “A date is enough, babe”.
“Babe, huh?” Chris took a deep breath, just as you pushed him away from you a bit, enough to have space so you could drop to your knees, uncaring of your bare skin touching the floor. All you could care about was the outline of his length against his clothes when you pressed your hand on it.
“Sorry, you don’t like ‘babe’?” You looked up at him, right in the eyes, just as you untied the sleeves of his boilersuit from around his waist.
“I like it a lot, actually”, there was a bit of a smug smirk on his face, and it had you licking your lips.
Just as you were about to pull the bottom of his suit further down, he brought a hand to one of yours, diverting your eyes back up to his. His gaze had softened, and the smile on his face coupled with that look in his eyes made you flush further. “You don’t have to, seriously. Don’t feel obligated to do it”.
“I don’t”, you reassured him. “I want to do it. Badly. But only if you want it, too”.
“Fuck… I do. So bad”, he licked his lips, and he moved his hand away from yours to place it on your head instead. “You’ve got no idea how much, shit…”
So you resumed your motions, tugging his bottoms along with his underwear, enough for his length to spring free of its confinements. You weren’t surprised with the sight, honestly. A pretty face like his surely came with a pretty cock, too. So of fucking course it was pretty, especially so as precum pooled at its tip, especially when it looked just so delectably hard. It was a bit on the girthier side, but nothing too crazy, nothing you couldn’t handle. If anything, it just made your mouth water, and you licked your lips in anticipation.
“Shit…” You took him in your hand, spreading around the bead of precum that had collected on his tip to give him a couple of tentative pumps, making him swear under his breath and bite his bottom lip. “How do you like it?”
“Fuck… sloppy. Make it as wet as you can, the messier the better”, the words flew past his lips, completely shamelessly, almost as if he didn’t even need to think about them. Chris seemed to be transfixed on the sight of your hand working his length, and you took that opportunity to spit on it, making him groan while you started to coat him in your saliva.
So you delayed no further, dying for a taste, and a taste you got. As soon as your lips wrapped around his tip Chris swore. Loudly. He threw his head back and his fingers seemed to tighten a bit on your head, but he didn’t move you, he let you keep the pace as you saw fit. You started slow, holding him by the base and just bobbing your head for your lips to repeatedly catch on the ridge of his head and for your tongue to rub against the frenulum on the underside, taking him deeper into your mouth with every other stroke.
The moment you opened your eyes and your gaze found his, your inner walls involuntarily clenched around nothing, and suddenly you felt like you needed some relief. But you ultimately decided to keep your focus on Chris, on his lustful gaze, on his furrowed brows, on his gentle hold on your head, and the grunts and groans threatening to come out of his mouth, dampened by the way his teeth trapped his bottom lip.
He wanted it messy and sloppy, so you were ready to give it to him messy and sloppy. It’d been a while since you’d done this, but you’d be damned if you didn’t at least try. With a deep breath, you took him in deeper, breaching past the initial resistance for him to ease into your throat.
“Oh, fuck… You’re kidding… Shit…” Chris threw his head back, letting the most delicious noises out of his mouth, almost making you lightheaded with how aroused his heavy cock in your mouth coupled with his blissed out sounds got you.
You took your time slurping him up, uncaring if saliva dribbled out of your mouth as you worked against your gag reflex, feeling tears quickly collect in the corner of your eyes. When you felt confident enough with your motions, you brought your hand to his that held your head in place, while you placed the other on his hip, holding him tightly. 
“You want me to move, pretty? Fuck your perfect little mouth?” You nodded in response, humming around his length.
Slowly, he started to thrust into your mouth. Chris was being extremely careful, being mindful of every controlled push of his hips, but even with his slow pace, you couldn’t help but moan as soon as he started moving, making him groan in response. That was when you finally gave into your own desires, moving your hand away from his that lay on your head to bring it under your dress so you could press circles on your clit over your underwear, eliciting broken whimpers from your mouth.
“Shit, look at you…” Chris looked fucked out of his mind already, with his heaving chest and the increasing pace of his hips. You were sure you weren’t looking any more collected than he was, especially when you started to feel tears finally fall from the corner of your eyes every time you blinked.
With one particularly precise thrust of his hips, Chris’ length went in further than you were used to, essentially choking you on his cock, making you gag harshly. Chris pulled his length out of your mouth, and you gasped for air immediately.
“Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck, so fucking good with that mouth… Come here, beautiful”, Chris helped you to your feet, wrapping his arms around your waist once you were standing on your feet and pressing kisses all over your cheeks. You were still panting a bit, flushed from exertion, but Chris kissed you anyway, and you kissed him back, holding onto his shoulders for dear life. “Need to taste you”, he mumbled between pecks of his lips. “Please, please, please let me eat you out”.
You just nodded, very eagerly if you might add. But you honestly couldn’t find it in you to be embarrassed about it, not when Chris begged so fervently for it. Just the thought of seeing him between your legs had you already clenching with need.
While you kissed, Chris removed his arms from your waist. You felt him fumble with his underwear and his boilersuit, hastily wrapping it around his waist, and before you could even register what he was doing, he was taking a hold of your ass and scooping you into his arms.
“Chris, fuck, wait. I’m heavy as hell”, you were slightly alarmed, but your legs wrapped around his waist for stability anyway just as you held onto his shoulders.
“Heavy?” Chris chuckled, moving towards his desk. “Baby, I can lift almost thrice your weight”.
“You, what?” You asked, a bit confused–and also aroused, because, fuck, how strong was this man…–Chris pushed away some of the items on his desk to sit you on it, close to the edge. After all the revelations that had come to light earlier, it finally dawned on you. “Is that… why you asked what my weight was all those months ago?”
“Of course! Needed to make sure that if I ever got a chance I was able to do everything I wanted”, he dropped to his knees, starting to press tender kisses up your shins. “Must admit I had to stop whole hip thrust sets sometimes because I’d get so fucking hard halfway through, fuck”.
You couldn’t help but laugh at that, a hearty, and slightly incredulous laugh. “Holy shit. I genuinely thought you would tell me I had to lose weight at some point”.
“What? I’d never”, Chris chuckled, bringing his hands to your thighs, squeezing them. “I mean, it’s your body, you can do whatever you want, but know that I find you incredibly attractive however you look”, he moved his hands further up, right under the hem of your dress to finally hook his fingers on the waistband of your underwear. “Can I take these off, gorgeous?”
“Yes”, you giggled, feeling yourself heating up further just by his words and the feeling of his hands on your skin. With your hands on the desk you lifted your hips enough for him to slip the garment down your legs and off of you. He threw your underwear on the desk, and they landed somewhere behind you.
Bringing his hands back to your thighs, Chris rubbed circles with his thumbs for a second, only to finally move them further up, catching the hem of your dress and bringing it with him as he went. You chewed on your bottom lip, feeling a bit nervous all of a sudden. That was, until he finally pushed your legs apart. With the way he swore under his breath and the way his eyes seemed to get impossibly darker as soon as he took sight of your seeping core, any nervousness seemed to have been obliterated, and you couldn’t help but feel just so incredibly wanted.
“Fuck… Even here, huh?” He threw your legs over his shoulders, and you felt yourself heat up in anticipation. “Plump, pretty… Shit…”
Desire pooled in the pit of your stomach, it was honestly almost pathetic how affected you felt just by the things he was saying and the sight of him between your legs.
“You know…” Chris pressed his lips to your inner thigh, sucking harshly, leaving marks on your skin, making you inhale a shaky breath. “This is the exact same dress you were wearing the first time you came into my shop”.
Your eyes widened a bit in surprise. “You remember what I was wearing?”
“Hm, ‘course I do”, he moved his attention back to your eyes, just as he pressed a chaste kiss on your inner thigh. “I’ve been dreaming of you in this fucking dress for months, baby…”
“You have?”
“I have”, one of his hands came to grip your thigh, while the other moved to your hip, giving you a hefty squeeze. “How do you like it, pretty? Or how do you not like it, for that matter?”
You licked your lips, suddenly transfixed by the sight of his lips brushing your skin. “Gentle sucks go a long way. I’m a bit, uh… sensitive”.
“Sensitive, huh? ‘Course you are… Hold this for me, hm?” He took a hold of your hand and brought it to one of your thighs, just as he spread you open further, propping your foot on the desk. So you did as asked, keeping your legs open as he diverted his attention back to your heat. “Good girl… Just like that…”
As soon as he spread you with two of his fingers, and he dived, landing soft, tentative licks on your clit, you knew you were done for. Your whole body jolted a bit, and a soft whimper escaped your mouth. “Oh, fuck…”
Chris just hummed, moving to lick at your entrance, getting a taste of your essence with his brows pulled together, looking just so fucking delighted. Just the thought that he was genuinely enjoying himself got you moaning a bit louder under the quickening movements of his tongue, and as soon as his lips pressed on your clit, giving you those gentle sucks you had asked for, your mind just disconnected completely.
He took his time working you up, turning you to a whimpering mess just with his lips and his tongue, gradually increasing his tempo to build your upcoming release. Whenever he dipped lower to lick at your entrance, his nose would bump your clit with every movement of his head, he was essentially making out with your cunt and you would gladly let him do whatever and however he wanted. Your nerve endings were on fire, your toes curled with need, and your walls clenched with his unrelenting pace.
When he detached his mouth from your core you almost wanted to cry, but he only did it for a second, enough to ask a “Fingers, baby?” only to press his lips to your sensitive skin again, sucking your clit into his mouth and licking it with his tongue.
You weren’t sure if the ‘Yes’ actually came out of your mouth, you vaguely only registered your eager nodding and the soft moan that escaped your lips as soon as you felt one of his digits at your entrance. Chris groaned against your skin as soon as he inserted the first finger to the knuckle, the vibration of the sound further fueling that fire in the pit of your stomach. He pumped his finger in tandem with his tongue on your clit, touching and prodding and gauging your reactions to his every move.
One particularly sharp nudge of his finger on your walls had you moaning a bit louder than you were before, and Chris seemed to have picked it up immediately, because he plunged a second finger right after and started pumping his digits in and out, hitting that sweet spot over and over while his lips gently sucked on your clit. You needed to have a hand on the desk to keep yourself up, to maintain some stability, so you shuffled your foot a bit and simply let go of your thigh to bring the hand that was holding it to his head, burying your fingers in his hair and pushing him further against you with a whimper.
Chris groaned as soon as your fingers threaded through his hair, immediately picking up the pace of his fingers and his tongue, bringing you further and further towards the edge, and God if you needed to tip over that edge… With how well he was working you up you felt your lower belly tighten with exertion, and your walls spasm more frequently around his fingers.
“Chris… Fuck, fuck, I’m so fucking close, please–” You almost choked with the moan that came out of your mouth after you spoke, since Chris immediately started ramming his fingers into you harder, faster, just as his plush, now swollen lips kept sucking that sensitive bundle of nerves between your legs.
He was absolutely determined to give you your relief, and as soon as you were able to open your eyes and look at him, the look in his eyes, lustful, greedy, was enough to finally push you over the edge. Searing heat spread all over your body with your release, pure pleasure overflowed each and every one of your senses, making you perceive nothing but Chris, Chris, Chris, and his lips between your legs, and his hair between your fingers, and his fingers inside of you.
Chris’ motions didn’t relent until you were thoroughly satisfied, until you weakly pushed on his head with a ‘Shit, baby, enough, please’ when he had you on the brink of oversensitivity. As soon as his mouth detached from your heat, he pulled his fingers out and brought them to his lips, sucking them clean before he finally stood up and caught your mouth in a heated kiss. The fact that you could taste yourself on his lips only seemed to spur you on further, making you whimper while you brought a hand to the back of his head and took a handful of his curls to finally get completely lost in the motions of his kiss.
“So pretty, fuck…” He mumbled when his mouth disconnected from yours, cradling your head in his hands as he smothered your face with kisses. “So fucking gorgeous when you come for me, shit…”
His borderline adoring words had you feeling tingly all over, somehow both making your heart swell in your chest and your walls involuntarily flutter even when they were still sporadically spasming from the after effects of your orgasm. When Chris kissed you again, you looped your arms around his neck just as his hands found your hips, pulling him flush to you, heaving chest against heaving chest, getting lost in the feeling of his lips on yours and his hands kneading your flesh.
“Holy fuck”, you chuckled as soon as Chris’ lips parted from yours, and he followed suit, chuckling while he made his way to your neck, to press kisses all over your skin.
“Mmm, I know, right?”
Chris hugged you close, leisurely kissing and licking your neck and shoulders. His soft, lingering touches seemed to shoot straight to the deepest areas within your heart, and even though you’d just had a mind-numbing orgasm, you certainly wanted more. More of him.
“Chris?” You mumbled, hugging him a bit tighter.
“Mm?”
You pressed a kiss to his cheek, then moved to take his earlobe between your teeth, tugging gently before you whispered, “want you”.
Chris took in a shaky breath, and he pulled himself away from your neck to look at your face. God, you wanted to kiss him, his flushed face and his swollen lips would be a sight that’d haunt your wettest dreams from now on, you just knew. 
He licked his lips. “We don’t have to, pretty”.
“Mm… You’re right, we don’t have to”, dragging one of your hands from his shoulders, down his chest, his abdomen, all the way to his length, you pressed your palm firmly, feeling him still hard under your grasp. “But do you want to?”
“Fuck, yeah, I want to”, Chris held your hips tighter, and you wondered if you’d see bruises tomorrow just as he placed a kiss on your lips. “I want you so bad”.
“You have me. Right here, baby. You can have me right here”, you mumbled against his lips, pressing a kiss there right after, just as Chris swore under his breath.
“Shit… Gimme a sec”, he detached himself from you, rounding the desk and pulling one of the drawers open, muttering to himself. “There were some here, I’m sure…”
You turned to look at him, oddly amused by the way he carelessly moved things around in his drawers. “What are you looking for?”
“Aha! These”, he pulled a three piece box of condoms, and he turned it around a few times in his hand with a frown on his face. “I seriously hope these aren’t expired…”
You chuckled at the sight of his focused face, amused, but also incredibly curious. “Why do you even have a box of condoms in your desk’s drawers? How many girls have you had in here?”
“Believe it or not, you’re the first one”, he chuckled, opening the package and taking one of the foil packets out, examining it closely for a moment, only to finally heave a sigh of relief. “Thank God. Not expired”.
With a smile on your lips, you quirked a brow at him, just as you watched him round the desk again to stand in front of you. He shrugged to your silent question, taking the foil packet between his teeth so he could untie the top of his boilersuit from around his hips and tug the rest and his underwear down enough so his length was free again, and you’d admit you got a bit distracted by the sight.
With the corner of the condom packet still held in place by his teeth, he finally tore it open, and you took the bit of foil that was still in his mouth to drop it somewhere on the desk while Chris carefully slid the condom down his length.
“You’d be surprised how many things a condom can be used for when working with cars. They’re always useful when you need to get creative and use whatever you have at hand”, Chris stood between your parted legs, placing his hands on your hips and squeezing.
“What kind of MacGyver bullshit is that?” You chuckled, but the sound quickly turned into a surprised yelp when Chris held you tightly and pulled you closer to the edge of the desk.
“They’ve always been helpful when I’ve needed them”, leaning into you, Chris placed a hand on your cheek, pulling you into a kiss just as he rubbed the tip of his cock up and down your slit, spreading your juices around and teasing your clit in the process, making you whimper into his mouth. “But I’ll be honest, I’ve never been more happy to have them at hand than I do right now”.
You brought a hand to play with the hair at the back of his head, pulling him for a brief kiss. “Put them to good use, then”.
“Demanding, are we?” Chris chuckled, but he lined himself with your entrance anyway, slowly easing his length into your heat. “Oh, shit…”
It was a stretch, alright, but he was being just so incredibly careful, and you appreciated it, you really did. But you were also incredibly desperate to be filled, so you wrapped your legs around his torso and pushed on his ass with your heel, urging him on, making him jut his hips further forward.
“Shit… Have mercy on me, will you?” He mumbled against your cheek, pressing a soft kiss on your skin while his now free hand made its way to your hip again, holding you tightly.
“Want you”, you replied simply, probably whinier and less demanding that you were trying to sound, but Chris complied with your request anyway, finally thrusting all the way in, making you gasp with just how incredibly full you felt.
“Want you, too”, he pressed his lips to your neck, kissing and sucking on your skin. The thought of waking up tomorrow and seeing his marks on your neck or your hips made you flush impossibly further, even as he moved along to press kisses on the exposed skin of your shoulder. “Want you so bad I’m genuinely about to burst just by being inside you right now. Need a second”.
Bringing a hand to his cheek, you made him turn away from your shoulder to look at you, and the way he bit his lip before he leaned in for a kiss had you involuntarily clenching around him, eliciting a choked groan from his lips.
“Fuck, driving me nuts… Seriously, we’re gonna have… the best fucking date ever… You’ll see…” He mumbled his words between kisses, and it genuinely had you laughing, because of course he was still thinking about your future date. “C’mon, beautiful. Hold on to me”.
So you did, bringing your arms to rest on his shoulders, burying one of your hands in his hair, all while he placed one hand on the small of your back, and the other on the desk for stability. Finally, Chris moved, starting a rhythm with precise thrusts, making you gasp at the sensation of his length dragging against your walls, making him groan.
“Fuck, shit… That’s good. So good. Feel so fucking perfect around me, baby. Perfect”, with the increase of his tempo you could barely register the words coming out of his mouth, all you could do was whine while you nodded in agreement, hoping that he, too, would know how just incredibly good he felt inside of you.
The way Chris kissed you, almost desperate, the way he started to ram into you, stretching you so deliciously you were already starting to feel lightheaded, all combined had that little bit of sanity you had left in you leave your body entirely, finally letting you succumb to just your utmost primal need for pleasure. But more specifically, for pleasure you could share with Chris.
You honestly couldn’t tell how long you spent getting pounded to that desk, you could just feel Chris’ cock repeatedly splitting you open and his lips on yours and the words that he’d occasionally mumble against your skin, his words of praise and encouragement that had you once again feeling tingly all over, words that fed that pool of arousal inside of you, threatening to spill it all over. You vaguely registered words of your own leave your mouth, too. Words that seemed to spur him on, that seemed to pull blissed-out sounds from his lips and yours nonstop. 
“Lean back a bit for me, gorgeous”, and you couldn’t help but comply, removing one of your hands from his shoulders to place it behind you to lean on it, leaving just enough space between your bodies for Chris to sneak his hand between your bodies, finding your clit and drawing fervent circles on your already oversensitive bud, eliciting a moan from your lips as soon as he did. “Fuck, fuck, that’s it, baby. Just like that, milk my cock just like that, huh…”
“Chris–” You honestly weren’t sure what you were even going to tell him, you could just feel your next high approaching increasingly fast, and you needed it. You needed it badly.
“It’s fine, pretty. Whenever you’re ready, just let go”, he mumbled the words against your cheek, pressing a chaste kiss on it, a complete contrast to his sharp thrusts and the fast movement of his fingers between your legs. “Want to feel you so bad, fuck…”
“Shit–” With a few more flicks of his fingers on your clit, you finally got that sweet, sweet relief. The feeling spread all throughout your body, dragging sounds of pure, unadulterated pleasure out of your mouth, making your legs shake from exertion as you tried to keep your hold around Chris’ torso.
Bringing both of his hands to your hips for leverage, Chris chased his own release, his grunts and groans getting lost in your mouth while he kissed you again. One, two, three thrusts and he was flush against you, shooting his load into the condom while he was buried as deep as he could within your warmth, a mix of his groans and your name and a colourful string of swears flying past his lips as he rode the waves of his ecstasy with minute rolls of his hips.
“Holy fuck”, he cradled your face in his hands, pulling you in for one more heated kiss while he came down from his high, and you couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
“I agree”, you were panting a bit, breathless, leaning back on both of your hands as you tried to catch your breath.
Chris laughed, a hearty laugh that had a smile appearing on your face immediately. Taking a hold of the condom by the base of his length to make sure it was secure in place, he finally pulled out, carefully sliding it off of him, tying a knot and throwing it in the bin by his desk. You missed his warmth inside of you immediately.
Taking a roll of toilet paper from one of the tool carts nearby, he quickly cleaned any remnants of his release from his length before he was tucking it back into his briefs, finally wrapping the top of his boilersuit around his waist again. With more paper in hand Chris asked you to ‘please open up those pretty legs for me, hm?’ so he could clean you up, helping you back into your underwear right after.
As soon as you were standing back on your–admittedly unsteady–feet, Chris wrapped his arms around your waist, placing a quick kiss on your lips only to move up and press another on your forehead. “You okay?”
“I’m more than okay”, you chuckled, melting into his embrace. “Everything hurts, though. How’re you?”
“On cloud nine”, he replied simply, giving you one of his blinding smiles, making your heart race with the sight.
When Chris finally detached himself from you, he reached for the soda he’d taken out of your hands earlier, giving it back to you once you told him ‘I still want to drink it. Even if it’s not cold anymore, seriously’, and after a bit of back and forth he simply relented.
“Would you…” Chris started to ask, while he bent down to take the bag out of the bin. “Would you like to come to my place? I mean, I can take you to yours, too, that’s fine, but I figured, you know, you could stay over, and we could have dinner, and I can make you breakfast tomorrow, and I’m sure Wolfgang would love to see you, and we could cuddle to sleep, you know? But if you don’t want to, it’s fin–”
You took a hold of his hand, squeezing it in yours to stop his rambling. “I’d love to”.
Chris just giggled a bit, pressing a quick kiss on your lips and tugging you out of his office back to the garage once he’d switched off the light. When you were outside, you made your way to his 4X4, watching him chuck the small bin bag from his office into the bigger bin out in the garage and going through the motions of switching every light off in here, too.
As you watched him, your eyes drifted to Herbie, parked in his–by now–usual spot. Maybe Chris was right, maybe it was time you considered letting him go. He’d served you well for those two months at the beginning, and when you were in a pinch he was very forgiving, but his condition was unsustainable at this point.
As soon as Chris was by your side again he gave you a kiss for good measure, opening his 4X4’s passenger door for you. You just smiled at him, pressing one more kiss on his lips before you finally hopped in. Chris rounded the bonnet and started to very animatedly talk about a funny thing Wolfgang had done just this morning, gesturing with his hands while he recounted the event, making you laugh.
While Chris drove you two to his place, with soft music playing on the radio, with his hand occasionally shifting from the gear lever to squeeze your thigh, all while a light, easy conversation flowed between you two, you figured that Herbie might’ve been the worst financial decision you’d ever made, but at the very least, he’d brought you to Chris, so you really couldn’t hold a grudge against him, not when you felt so incredibly light and couldn’t wipe the smile off of your face.

Hey! I’m so glad you enjoyed& thank you for your request I loved writing it, and this concept is amazinggg, thank you again <3
Eugene Roe x reader - Friends to Lovers *SMUT*
Eugene and the local English girl have been friends for the past 2 months since Easy arrived in her small village. There’s an obvious tension and spark between the pair but both of them are too worried to act on it. After one evening in the pub, everything completely changes and the two can finally unleash their feelings to one another.
tw- smut, 18+, outdoor sex??? Is that called , voyeurism, idek? But Gene is so soft I love this boy. Anyway you’ve been warned 😈
Tumblr media
“Hey guys!!!” My mood was instantly lifted, walking into my local pub and seeing the men of Easy company gathered around. A chorus
of greetings erupted from around me as a pint was thrown in my direction, and an open seat on the table that consisted of dozens of the tipsy men. “Hi Gene.” I smiled, a warmth instantly spreading through me when I sat down besides the company’s medic. “Hey.” The American greeted, I flashed him a toothy smile, settling into the small space, a little too happy with the seating placement. Gene was my best friend out of all the men, in the eight weeks I’d spent around the men I’d grown close to them all- however Gene was different. He was sweet, kind, super respectful and let’s just say my soft spot for him was instant. I’d fallen for Gene a long time ago, but I yet awaited anything to happen more than a conversation between us.
“Heyyy, you got all dressed up for us, didn’t you?!” George Luz teased from across the table, “yeah, yeah, just for you, Luz.” I joked back, taking a sip from the beer in front of me. “How long have you all been here for, half of you are already blathered?” I giggled, turning to Gene who shifted in his chair, head turning to face me. “I only just got here, but these lot…” he scanned around the table to the mixture of drunken, sober and everything in between men. “I’d say since this mornin’.” I giggled at his words again, amused by his funny southern accent. I liked it, I always tried to imitate it, that usually made Gene laugh at how botched it sounded. “Heyyy, you, budge up you’re the only person here that’s not a fat ass.” Joe Toye stumbled over, nudging me over in my chair as we shared a stool. The men all chimed out their objection to Toye’s mock about them all as I shuffled closer into Gene’s chair. There was 3 of us sharing 2 stools, and neither of the men were exactly small guys. “Sorry.” He muttered, budging up as I swallowed nervously, our sides were pressed together. “It’s fine.” I chuckled again, keeping one hand on my glass so it wouldn’t accidentally fall onto Gene’s lap due to the close proximity of us both. If I was a slightly bit drunk, then I would have no problem being a little more flirtatious, but right now I was stone cold sober and suffering with my confidence in my abilities to be seductive. “Are you at work tomorrow?” At some point, after an hour so of being there, Gene muttered down to me, giving me a break from yelling back to all the rowdy men surrounding me. “No, I got the weekend off. Are you training?” “Finally got a weekend pass.” He rolled his eyes. They barely ever got weekend passes, I’d heard a lot about the infamous Sobel, and none of it was good.
“Oh, finally, it’s about time.” I angled my body a little closer to him, my shoulder nestling against his arm as he lifted it, dropping it over the back of my chair comfortably. I was two wines down, and although I wasn’t drunk, it had given me the smallest bit of Dutch courage to engage in a one on one conversation with him. “Our first in eight weeks.” Gene told me as he took another swig from the almost empty pint glass. I had no idea how many he’d had, but his eyes were looking slightly hazed, apart from that he seemed fine. “I don’t know how you do it’s Gene, all of you- I’d be so upset.” He shrugged, shaking his head, indicating his lack of answer as I smiled back to my nearly empty wine glass. “You want another?” He then pointed out. “Oh, I’m alright for now, I don’t know how much more I can stomach.” “Probably more than these guys.” Gene smiled, nodding his head towards Moe and Malarkey who had both their heads on the table. “I thought Malarkey was supposed to be Irish, isn’t he supposed to be good at drinking?” A
“Mmmmh, supposedly.” Gene shuffled slightly, the back of his arm grazing over the bare of my neck. In return, that caused me to fidget, my legs were more comfortably rested against his own, and it wasn’t until I settled that I recognised how truly close we were. There wasn’t even a gap between us, it made me blush, bad. I was positive he could tell. I hadn’t been this close to a man in ages, never mind one that I harboured genuine feelings for.
We were midway through a conversation about how different it was in America, when a fight had broken out between some of the disorderly men nearby. In return all of the soldiers got kicked out of the pub, ruining it for everybody in there. Sighing, I mentally cursed the pair out, now my chances with Gene were ruined, again.
“C’mon, I’ll walk you home.” Gene hushed, grabbing his blazer for his uniform that was slung on the back of his chair, the two of us walking out into the warm air. “I’m so glad it’s warm outside. I love summer.” I exhaled, grateful to not feel the cold breeze of the English wind against my bare arms. “Back in Louisiana, it’s always like this. Maybe even hotter.”
“Oh really? I’d love that.” I gazed up to him as we walked side by side. The walk back to my house was only 10 minutes, it made me sad to think I couldn’t spend the rest of the evening with Eugene in the pub as planned. “Mmmh.” Gene laughed out. “You’d melt.”
“Probably. I already know I’d be complainin’.” “I can imagine.” Gene teased as I let out a fake gasp, nudging into him playfully. There was a brief silence between us as we walked a little closer now. There was a lingering tension between us, it wasn’t awkward, but I could just feel there was something there. “How long until you’ll be shipped out, d’ya think?” “No clue..” Gene voice lowered, I momentarily felt bad for bringing up the topic. I winced at the thought of them all being shipped off to war, especially Gene. I hadn’t any idea of what they’d face out there, nor did I grasp the concept of how bad it could or would be. I wandered if Gene did.
“Sorry, I shouldn’t bring it up. It’s not exactly nice to talk about.” I kicked at the gravel below me. “No, it’s fine.” He drew out in his deep accent. “I uh… already know there’s a few guys lining up to write t’ya.” Genes words caused my head to snap up in his direction. “Yeah?” My eyebrows lifted, stunned by the topic.
“Have they not said?” He frowned. “Nah…” we continued walking in silence for a couple seconds. “Who?” I then questioned.
“Guess.” “Floyd? I don’t know, maybe Luz or somebody- they probably just said it cos they were drunk.” “I think they’re pretty serious.” He responded as I turned over my head to see the local park nearby, “you wanna keep walking? We could just go through the park.” “Sure.” Gene responded as we changed direction, walking through into the darkness of the wilderness surrounding the stretches of fields and woodland.
“Um, but no, I didn’t know they wanted to write to me.” I giggled. “If they did I’d be polite and write back, you know check up on you all but… you know, it wouldn’t be in that kinda way.” Gene nodded along, following with what I was saying. A thought then sprung to my mind, and a tight feeling in my chest just itched at me to get what I was feeling off my chest. “Unless-“ I cut myself off abruptly when I realised he was looking at me. I was smiling widely, and I could feel the heat rise to my face quicker than I could think. “Unless?” Gene repeated as I opened my mouth to speak but the words fell flat. Say something, say something.
“I mean, I’d write to you, see how you’re doin’ and all, you know.” My admission sorta fell flat on my tongue, I’d hinted around the topic of admitting my feelings, but I didn’t think it was obvious enough.
“You’d want to?” Gene’s gaze lingered over me as I nodded, meeting his eyes as I dropped my head back slightly. “Course, I’d want to… Obviously you don’t have to, if you don’t want-“
“No, I want to.” He was very quick to respond, settling my nerves slightly. I smiled up to him, before turning back in front of me. The paths were windy and long, surrounded by woodland, I didn’t think there was another soul around us, not at this time anyway.
“I was wonder in’-“ “I was gonna sa-“ the two of us began speaking at the same time, we shared a brief awkward laugh. “Go on.” I spoke.
“Well I was gonna ask anyway if ya’ wanted to write to me.” He cleared his throat, “I just didn’t know if some otha’ guy had already asked ya’.” My heart accelerated at his words. Was this him admitting we both shared mutual feelings? It was kind of vague but I could feel an excitement burning through me like no other.
“Well, if I’m honest I’d rather write to you.” I shyly spoke, a hand coming up to twirl a strand of my hair. “Than other guys, like Floyd and all them.” I added on nervously.
“You would?” Gene seemed genuinely stunned by my words. “Yeah.” I giggled, “why are you so shocked?” I borderline teased, as he smiled, shrugging to himself. “I dunno.” He’d mumbled, the smile never fading on his face. There was a slight rustling from the bushes to the left of me causing me to startle and jump two inches to my right, straight into Gene’s body. “I’m scared, what the fuck was that?” I cursed out, Gene’s eyes widening as he looked down to me. I felt the smooth of his hand move up my back as I tried to look out for whatever made the rustling noise next to us.
“I didn’t realise you swore.” He, on the other hand, sounded amused. My hand knocked into his chest with an embarrassed smile, realising how close we were. The two of us shared a smile before he glanced back out to the bushes. “Probably just a rabbit or something.” He uttered, but I was too focused on the beauty of his face to notice, we were so close, he just stood taller than me, that was the only distance between us.
When he did catch my eye again, he soon caught my lips, making my breath hitch. He looked like he wanted to kiss me, and I wanted to kiss him, so I purposefully glanced at his own parted lips in return.
The thumb on my back shifted slightly, drawing a pattern there as he moved closer, in return I stood higher on my toes, almost sighing out in relief when I felt the gentle press of his kiss. Finally. At first, I was a little in shock, the back of his fingers grazed over my cheek and in return I smoothed my own hands over his shoulders, enjoying the intimacy of the kiss. Whatever was in the bushes was no longer on the forefront of my mind. Gene was.
The kiss didn’t just end there, when we did pull apart, he had the most beautiful smile on his face. He was so soft and gentle, I couldn’t help but reach up to kiss him once again. I needed to feel more of him, after months of being so close as friends, the intimate moment between the two of us felt foreign, but overwhelmingly good. The kiss deepened, my hand ran over the back of his neck and scalp, to which he reacted by pulling me closer into his body. I could feel more of him now, the swell of my breasts pushed up to his front. His grip was becoming firmer, keeping me close. The butterflies in my stomach had travelled lower down, and I didn’t feel ashamed to admit that the kiss was turning me on. The placement of his hand on my lower back made me want to wiggle it down just a little further so he could get a handful of my ass. Of course Gene was so respectful, I didn’t know if he’d make the first move to become more intimidate. I figured he wanted it, just from the feeling of the hardness in his pants that pressed into my front. God, that made me blush harder than anything before. The thought of him feeling that way because of me was a huge turn on.
Slowly, my hand snaked down to the buckle on his belt, as soon as my fingers wrapped over the waist band of his pants he pulled back slightly. “You want to?” He asked breathlessly, waiting for my consent.
I nodded up to him. “Do you?” “Yeah.” He gently responded and captured my lips once again. This time, he left kisses on my cheek, jaw, neck, and back over my lips whilst he removed his blazer. My hand slowly grazed over his erection as he let out a soft hun against my lips. That’s all I wanted to hear, it was beautiful the noises he made. “Here?” Gene then asked between kisses. “C’mon, let’s go somewhere bettuh’.” He then took the initiative to lead me by my hand towards the fields edge. “Here’s fine.” I laughed, as he set his blazer down, “c’mon.” He hushed, pulling me down onto it whilst he rested on the grass besides me. As I sat down, Gene initiated the next kiss, bringing me down to lay on the dry grass below. I let out a soft hum in appreciation as his hand smoothed over my ribs, slowly fiddling with the buttons on my white, summer dress.
Gene seemed a little shy at first, the top half of my dress was completely unbuttoned, my breasts in the bra were still exposed, yet his hand still remained over the soft skin on my torso and waist. Gently, I took his hand, guiding it up to my breast, earning a soft moan from his mouth as he groped over the swell of my boob.
Gene shifted, growing confident as he rolled his body on top of mine, planting himself between my spread legs as he softly rolled his hips into my own. The feeling was amazing, it was enough to elicit more moans from my mouth. The best thing was, Gene seemed to be enjoying himself just as much as I was, his breathing was heavy and when my hands shifted to start working on his belt, he broke the kiss just to give me a smile.
Slowly, a hand slid up the bare of my thigh, stroking and grazing over the sensitive skin as my hips purposefully bucked upwards. I felt Gene’s finger dance over the cloth of my underwear, pressing down with firm yet gentle strokes to my core. I swallowed harshly, glancing down to see his movement before our eyes met. His mouth was hung open slightly, looking just as pleasured as I felt as I moved in for another kiss.
Within minutes Gene had me moaning out his name, he had a finger buried inside of me whilst his face pressed into my neck, leaving hot kisses and nibbles in his track. I felt like I’d been sent to heaven and back- and this wasn’t even the peak of it. “Is that okay?” Gene whispered out, gulping as he added another finger to the mix. “Yeah.” I nodded, growing accustom to the stretch of his two fingers inside of me, instead of one. He curled them up, nudging a spot deep inside me which I had to bite down on the back of my hand to conceal any overly loud moans escaping my lips. “God, it feels so good.” I whined out, tugging him closer by the shirt as he kissed me once more. “I want you to fuck me.” The words then escaped my mouth, Gene’s movements stopped as he nodded, pulling his fingers out gently to instead rub his fingers slowly over my clit once again. “You want to?” He panted out, hand hesitating to remove his belt. “Yeah… I do if you want to.”
“I do.” He simply spoke, as I helped him unbuckle his belt. He seemed a little shy to fully expose himself, I didn’t know why, he was big, I could see him through his briefs, probably the perfect size.
“I uh… I don’t have a condom.” He then awkwardly admitted, thumb nervously toying with the hem of his underwear. I propped myself up on my elbows, considering it for a couple seconds. “Um… as long as you pull out- I don’t mind.”
“Are you sure?” He eased himself down, pressing another kiss to my lips. “Yeah.” There was no way I could deny him or myself from what had been coming for so long. “Okay.” He swallowed, lips attaching once again as both our hands fumbled down to his underwear, pulling him free from the confinements of them. My stomach churned with the anticipation of what was about to happen. He was so gentle and careful, sliding himself in as he watched over my expression with his mouth slightly agape.
The second I heard his breath escape his mouth I was done for. The pleasure was immense, despise the slight aching of him stretching me out, it felt so good to have him inside of me.
His movements started off slow, I think he was holding himself back, my hands smoothed over his cheeks, admiring the pure beauty of his pleasured expression. He looked so beautiful, god, I couldn’t get enough of him. “Harder, Gene.” With a slight moan, his head dropped into my shoulder as he nudged my legs out wider, thrusting into me at a faster pace, his fingers tightening into the skin under my neck.
It felt so good, his hips grinding up into me, hitting a sensitive part inside of me that made my head drop back in pure ecstasy. I couldn’t believe I was here, doing this with Gene Roe. He was my friend! Well- I suppose now it was more than just friends.
Our gasps and moans filled the outdoor space, it seemed it was completely silent around us, there wasn’t another soul in sight. My legs lifted up further and wider, growing accustomed the sensitivity I felt in my core. I let out a gentle whine, moving my hand down to rub my aching clit, knowing I’d be close to an orgasm sooner than later. Gene pushed himself up, supported my both his arms as he watched himself pumping his cock in and out of me, mesmerised. “Oh god.” Cried out, my head and jaw tilting back as I felt my eyes roll back into my head. Gene’s hips were curling into mine, thrusting deeper inside of me as his skin slapped against my own. “Yeah?” He hummed, borderline cooing as my breathing became laboured. I was seeing stars, my jaw was slack and I felt my back arching as Gene’s hand slapped down onto one of my breasts, gripping hold of it as he seemed to let himself go.
The love making became so passionate, he’d steal kisses from me every now and then, biting my lips and groping at my tits as I felt myself becoming closer to the edge of pleasure. “Gene!” I writhed, choking out a strained gasp of his name as my hips bucked up into his before I felt myself becoming undone, my chest heaving and falling as an overwhelming rush of immense pleasure and satisfaction washed over me.
“Oh fuck, you’re so good.” I cooed out, my hands lazily drooping over his shoulders. Gene’s mouth was slack, panting out against my face as he shuffled down to kiss me hungrily.
“I’m close.” He muttered in his deep accent, thrusting himself harder up into me as I yelped out, sensitive from my orgasm. “Please.” I began to whisper, his forehead dropped against mine. “Please, give it to me.” I wanted his pleasure so bad, I wanted to feel him, see him, shit I needed it.
Gene’s sharp breaths soon turned into grunts and stifled groans, he was fucking into me at such a fast rate I could barely keep up, my legs aching from the love making as he let out one last strained groan before pulling out and finishing into his hand. His body collapsed on top of mine, groaning and exhaling as he let out the most beautiful sounds I’d ever heard. Jesus Christ, he was too good.
It was only when I stirred that he lifted his head back up, watching over me with the most gentle eyes. We shared another sweet kiss, whilst his fingers trailed up my sides carefully. “Well I never expected to do that in the middle of here…” only when I looked around and fully came back down did I remember we were in the middle of a field, surrounded by wildlife and wilderness. “Gene.” I giggled back to him, kissing him once more through a smile. Well that was unexpectedly the best thing to ever happen to me…

Periodic reminder that this is a pro ship account, I genuinely don’t give af what y’all do with your imaginations
I care too much about what happens to real people to even try to find the time or energy to pretend to assign morality to make believe, frankly I think it’s kinda neat that some people can take horrible dark things and splash enough fantasy on them to make it not so
We know that video games don’t make kids violent, kids being ignored, neglected, and never taught healthy emotional processing makes them violent. The idea that video games were the problem is fear mongering propaganda
The idea that porn addictions exists or that consuming it can desensitize an individual is of the same vain, it takes blame off the individuals who do horrible things and assigns it to some abstract concept that has no bases in reality
Of course people can become addicted to anything technically, even eating couch cushions, anything that acts as a stress reliever for any reason can become a compulsion. But like with couch cushions, there’s a different problem at hand
And someone can become desensitized in the idea that the shock and urgency lesson with exposure, but core values and your morals do not change without extensive personal work
These things are even less when not attached to irl human faces. Humans are very capable of distinguishing fiction from reality, even when we get really involved with them
The myth that we can’t comes from misunderstood and misconstrued findings that when we imagine something it lights up the same areas of the brain as actually doing the action
Which is true, but how we interpret those sensations is different, most people can sense something and still objectively know it isn’t real and will therefore act on that. Someone of sound mind can and does cry at a sad movie, but they will leave the theater aware that while they may still feel sad the character died no real person is actually dead
Porn is similar, it can invoke physical and emotional responses but people are aware it’s not real.
There is of course some nuances to that because of the fat cats in the industry trying convince viewers that the people in the videos aren’t actors performing bits
That has been dangerous for young people who were unfortunately getting their sex education from them because no one in their lives took the time to actually teach them about their bodies and relationships involving other bodies but as awareness of that issue rises the number of victims to that propaganda falls
So the rich try to profit off ignorance and shift blame from themselves while their worst consumers use them as excuses, that’s nothing new. Violent depraved people are like that for their own personal reasons, no media consomption or mental illness makes them like that, it’s all on individuals and their personal failure of morals
Fan creations has the smallest hat in the media ring, from every angle it’s near impossible to have it confused with reality without choosing to do so(like for escapism, which within limits is normal and fine)
Whatever fan creation you’re outraged about, it could be the most deaddove thing ever, like the most rottingest zombie of dead doves, and it still starts with acknowledging that it’s being modeled after a fictitious source like a book or a parasocial relationship with a celebrity
And when I consider that vs the physical irl actions people are taking against irl people I simply can’t bring myself to give a flying rats ass about fiction^2
Like Canada is still finding unmarked graves for native children who were taken from their homes by the church to be forced into dying at residential schools, and I don’t think enough people are taking into account that the indifference shown to these children’s deaths by the church is cruel by Christian standards
Seriously we aren’t even acknowledging that had these children been home with their loved ones the practices around their death would have been vastly different, some cultures don’t practice burials and to put anyone let alone their child in the ground without ceremony would have been the most vial act their community could ever enact
So yeah idgf if you’re blorbo commits a war crime and gets sexy with it, there’s very real war crimes being committed today and very real war crimes of the past going unacknowledged that are vastly more worth of my outrage

So Pyra is a very sweet girl who knows how to cook, and Mythra is a tsundere. And now we're going to collaborate and corrupt them into hedonistic gluttonous slobs~
Pyra and Mythra were both objectively pretty women- swords- whatever. They were skinny with very shapely curves, a combo most people would kill for! But not Nia. She didn't want to stop at skinny, and she wasn't content with their curves as is. And so, she devised a plan.
Since the two girls shared a body, making one of them fat would work just as well to make them both rotund, and so she hatched a plot.
Pyra was an amazing cook, the kind that made you gain weight in a single meal just because of the sheer volume you make yourself eat. Meanwhile, Mythra was a total brat who would do anything to spite someone who showed interest in her. Nia knew Mythra wasn't fond of her at all, and she could easily manipulate her into doing something just because Nia wanted her to. And so it began, as she walked up to Pyra.
"Hey Pyra, could you help me with something? It's cooking related."
"Of course! What is it?"
"Well, you see, I need enough food for a feast. Can you do that for me?"
"Sure! Gimme a couple hours or so~"
And so she did. When Nia returned, she was not disappointed. There was more than she had even expected, definitely enough food to feed a city for a day.
"This is perfect, thank you! Now, could I talk to Mythra?"
"No problem!"
Pyra switched into Mythra with a mystical flourish.
"What is i- oh. It's you. What do you want."
"Oh, nothing. I just made this feast for you!"
"Pfft, you? Make this? No way. This seems more like Pyra's cooking."
"Fine! I guess the whole thing will go to waste. Not my fault,,,"
"Hnnng..."
Mythra looked away, crossing her arms and shiftinf her hips.
"Fine, I'll eat it, but just because it's clearly not your cooking, and I don't want whoever did make it to have their effort to go to waste."
And so Mythra began slowly gulping the meal down. Whenever she would slow down or feel like she was full, Nia would rub her tummy and coerce out a fart or belch that would give her more room. When she finished, she had a spherical belly that stuck out 6 feet in front of her, and was covered in grease and scraps of food.
"Huff... See? I told you I could do it... Huff..."
"You so did! Good job. Now, could I see Pyra?"
She didn't even speak up before shifting, revealing a Pyra who had that entire 6-foot sphere of a belly change into an equally sized dump truck ass with a small amount of pudge elsewhere.
"WHAT ON EA-"
Nia shushed her as she shoved some cupcakes she kept from Mythra down Pyra's throat.
"Be a good girl and eat. It feels so good. Just give in... Mythra did!"
Pyra's panic became a calm sense of euphoria as she tasted her own addictive cooking. She soon became as obedient and round as Mythra. Nia had hired a number of people to cook after studying Pyra, so they could make the same addictive foods forever.
This cycle repeated for a long time, with Pyra going back to Mythra, her finding her tits many sizes bigger, eating more food than she ever thought possible, rinse and repeat. In just a day, Nia had reduced these amazing warriors to nothing but recepticals for food (as well as plates for food based on how much of it they spilt). She was happy, and most importantly, she finally had a new bed.

Tbh, from where I’m sitting (on my high “tried out proper 3D character and outfit modeling earlier this year” horse)… it’s not even actually that hard?? Like, I guess it’s extra work, but it wouldn’t have been called “extra” if it was considered important and planned for from the start >:/
Adjusting a "standard" character sculpt/model into a few different body types ain’t that hard, 'cause once you have the base you're just moving stuff around here and there. No need to change hands or feet or ears much, so that a 70% pain-in-the-ass reduction. You've got the symmetry tool on. It wouldn't even be cutting corners, that's just the standard 3D workflow asdfsdfghfgh
Then, tailoring the same clothing to different body meshes, even if there's a few dozen of those, is frankly just not difficult. The design is done, the 3D object is complete, you don't have to model anything else, you just move stuff around. MAYBE some outfits would need some more tailoring - but that's still adjusting an existing asset.
More variations requires more quality control hours, but that's about it; it's not like all the options you are presented with during character creation are in any way a strain on the rendering engine during game time, it still only has to render one player character!
Basically, the 3D artists' "It's just too difficult to model different body types (and facial features and hair options etc etc etc) :(" is exactly the same lie as 2D artists' "It's just too difficult to draw women that aren't Elsa from Frozen :(", just with a plausible "there's technical issues a layperson wouldn't know enough about to dispute" explanation baked in. Both of those groups COULD draw/model literally anything, they just don't care and don't want to (create diverse protagonists - both, for example, have fat villains nailed down, somehow, despite all the technical issues 🤔)
This is getting off the customizable game protagonists topic and onto grittier 3D character creation particulars, but has anyone else noticed how 3D characters basically always have thigh gaps? 2D artists certainly love drawing them too, but with 3D it's literally a 100% occurrence rate. Po from Kung Fu Panda and the humans from Wall-e (obligatory Yikes) have thigh gaps.
This IS - actually - (In Part) - due to technical issues. But,,,,,,
I ran into this technical issue when working on the aforementioned character model earlier this year. I was not going to model a fucking thigh gap, but I did realize why it's standard; basically, for animation, the legs have to be entirely separate from each other, only connecting to the pelvis. Compare to boobs, which even in horny 3D media don't lift up from the chest even when bouncing - it still looks fine, so there's just no need to model the skin at the boob-chest intersection, so there's only a crease to create the illusion. Legs do need to separate from each other constantly, so you can't just model the crease - there has to be skin (3D mesh) there.
You can't just model a genuine squish - that's deforming the mesh to a specific pose (character standing perfectly still with their legs at shoulder width), which is antithetical to modeling for animation. All the squishing should be done by the animators, matched to every frame of every pose. They CAN'T be asked to undo that hypothetical default squish for 97% of the frames.
You could model the thighs as intersecting meshes - e.i. both unsquished, and the masses that normally squish together instead clipping into each other. This does genuinely severely fuck with the workflow, though. Like, it could be done, probably, but that would actually be extra hours of working against the 3D modeling program for no good reason. I imagine rigging would also be extra hard with the intersections. There IS a reason 3D characters' bodies have no real creases. Both the artist AND the 3D program need all of the "outside" to actually be outside (e.i. the intersecting insides of thighs would be "inside" each other and fuck with everything) at every step of the workflow.
...You know where else this problem pops up? Armpits. (And arms laying flat against the sides of the body in general.)
...You ever notice how 3D characters' default poses always have the arms out at a 90° (T-pose) or a 45° (a more natural A-pose) angle? That's to avoid the intersection/squish issue! Easy to model, easy to add the squish when needed.
Now, I genuinely at first thought, surely it can't be that simple. There must be a reason everyone else is still modeling thigh gaps. If there was such an intuitive workaround, surely at least someone, somewhere, would have already utilized it?...
You can A-pose the legs. Vitruvian Man-style. And then the thighs don't touch. And there's no problem anymore. And when the texturing and rigging is done, just as you can lower the arms, you can put the legs back together. And then there's no gap.
All those other fuckers literally just don't try dfgsdfghdfghj
@not-a-space-alien and I were trying to make my OC Addison in Baldur's Gate and we discovered a critical flaw in the ability to make trans characters
While you can put any style of genitals on any style of body, you're still limited to faces that "match" the gender of the body
This meant in order to give them a face that actually looked like them, I had to use the "woman" body, which is, like, not ideal. Although Nasa told me the "man" bodies are all jacked af, which wouldn't really have fit the character either.
I feel like a game with a character customization screen should have three models for a character:
thin and petite
tall and muscular
fat
like, yeah, that doesn't cover EVERY possible shape a human body can be, but you can at least get closer instead of all women being petite and all men being tall and muscular
You don't even have to make most of the clothing and wearable items different based on whether the player character is "tall and muscular (male)" or "tall and muscular (female)." Only a small selection of the most revealing clothing would have to be different.

I have a really angsty request thats gonna hurt 😭 poly!Mikaelsons before they are dating, where their friendship started because they were trying to use the reader for something (maybe the stakes idk that part is up to you) but through the whole thing they started to actually fall in love, but the reader finds out they were using her (before them confessing their feelings) maybe end it in fluff and them finally confessing (ik I said fluff but if you think fluff doesn’t fit then u can change it)
Yooo we gonna be sad gals
Warnings: Angst, fluff at the end, protective Mikaelsons
Y/N felt like she was in a dream as she didn't know want she did to deserve four beautiful beings like the Mikaelsons to love her. Y/N had it rough as her adoptive father was asshole and her adoptive mother was verbally abusive, her friends was more worried about Elena than her. So to have not only one but four people to want her and that was way out of her league.
But want Y/N didn't know was that the Mikaelsons was using her to get all of the white oak until they found themselves falling hard for the girl. And it all came to light after a fight she had with Elena about her going to tell them how she felt for them.
"They are just using you! They don't really love you as they just wanted the white oak. No ones would want a fat useless wolf girl like you." Elena's words had cut the girl as she went and confronted them to find that Elena was right as she saw the white oak in the fire place.
"Baby.....it was all before.."
"Don't....I get it now." Y/N said tears falling from her eyes leaving not seeing the heartbreak on the siblings faces. Since that day Y/N had left town no one knew where she went as the siblings searched for her. The Mikaelsons had fell for the wolf while it had started to use her but they fell and fell hard as loving the wolf came to them easily but now she was gone and they wanted her back.
"Here is one black coffee Marcel." Y/N said with a cheery smile as the vampire smiled at her. Y/N had gone to New Orleans to get away from everyone back in Mystic Falls lucky she saved up money. When she first got to the city she met Marcel when he saved her from being bitten by a vampire and he looked after her.
"Thanks sweetheart. How are you? Diego said someone is bothering you."
"It...is fine. No need to do anything." Y/N said while Marcel was aware that Y/N was a werewolf. It was a surprise to him just how soft and gentle she was for a wolf never causing trouble and always turning far from town.
"Listen babygirl. If there is someone bothering my favorite wolf I want to know." Marcel said watching the young woman bite her bottom lip before sitting down.
"A few of the witches have been following me."
"I'll look into it babygirl don't worry." Marcel said getting up pressing a kiss on her head leaving the shop. Y/N finished up her shift seeing Thierry standing just outside making her worry and the vampire saw the worry on her face.
"The Originals are in town and Marcel doesn't trust them so I'm here to walk you home." Thierry said when Y/N frowned as it was a blur when Thrierry's neck was snapped and Elijah was standing in front of her.
"Really Niklaus?"
"We don't need him tell Marcel that we are talking to our little wolf." Klaus said as Y/N glared pushing past them both. Both men was quick to catch up to her and Klaus smirked.
"Here I thought you would be happy to see us."
"Well you are sorely mistaken." Y/N said rather coldly which surprised both of them. After leaving Mystic Falls Y/N cried over them then her sadness turned to anger that never went away.
"Listen what happened in......."
"Save it Elijah. I get it you four didn't really like me and was just using me to get the white oak."
"But we really....."
"What care? Yeah right, sorry if I don't believe you." Y/N said walking off and they both let her walk off and decided to watch over her from a distance. Two months of the four trying to get Y/N to forgive and to be with them while Marcel learned why the witches were following Y/N around.
"Pregnant? The witches think I am pregnant with Klaus's child?" Y/N said when Marcel had came into the coffee shop as she was happy that it was a slow day while Rebekah and Kol listened from a back table.
"That they do. So maybe find out if you are....I wasn't aware you two are......"
"We aren't. And if I am he won't be seeing my child." Y/N said coldly as Marcel watched her walk off wondering just what the Mikaelsons done to his little wolf. Y/N went to her doctor learning she was pregnant then made plans to not let the Mikaelsons know about the pregnancy.
"What do you two want?" Marcel asked seeing Elijah and Klaus walk into the Abattoir in a blur Klaus held him by his thoat holding him against a wall.
"Our little wolf where is she?"
"I have no idea where Hayley is....or did you mean Y/N? Here I thought that other wolf seen around you was your object of affection."
"Marcellus, tell us." Elijah said lowly when they heard her foot steps and they looked smiling as she glared.
"Wow not surprising that you both were going to hurt Mar to get your way." Y/N said ignoring how they both shamelessly raked their eyes over their love.
"Hey baby girl. Need something?" Marcel asked ignoring how both Originals glared at him as Y/N sighed.
"The witches are right."
"Oh....want to talk about it?" Marcel asked while Elijah and Klaus glared harder then stopped hearing a second heartbeat from Y/N.
"No. I'll let you finish up with them."
"Y/N is pregnant?!" Rebekah said surprised as Kol was equally upset like Elijah and Klaus that the idea their girl carrying another's child.
"From what I learned. Y/N is carrying Niklaus's child as the witches thought Hayley was the mother." Elijah said making them freeze and knew they needed to get Y/N under their protection.
"You are looking beautiful."
"What do you want Kol?" Y/N questioned glaring him as she worked cleaning off tables as Kol smiled.
"For you to forgive us as you are carrying Nik's baby. Let us protect you."
"No. I loved you four and you used me! And Klaus will never see my child!" Y/N said finishing up work leaving as Kol frowned before calling Rebekah.
"So you and Elijah?"
"I don't care Hayley. If you want to date the ass go ahead." Y/N tells the other wolf as Hayley smiled while Y/N looked at the book that Hayley brought her.
"This is a family tree. Most Alpha of a wolf pack has as one, this one is of the Crescent wolf pack."
"You know of the pack?" Hayley asked looking at the pregnant wolf.
"Yeah, it was my birth pack before given up for adoption." Y/N said pulling up her sleeve showing Hayley the Crescent mark on her wrist before continuing to telling Hayley about the wolf pack.
"Hayley seems to like you brother."
"I am aware Niklaus but much like you my heart belongs to Y/N." Elijah says as both were with Rebekah sitting in the coffee shop watching Y/N work and saw that she began to show a bit.
This went on for a month before Marcel got tired of it and had Davina trap Y/N with the siblings in the Abattoir to hash out their problems. So now Y/N sat pissed off arms crossed ignoring the Mikaelsons as Rebekah chewed on her bottom lip inching to touch Y/N's baby bump.
"Listen love yes at first we were using you. But we fell for you." Klaus said as Elijah stepped forward kneeling in front of Y/N getting her attention. Y/N saw the look of adoration and devotion in their eyes for her and it made her heart skip a beat.
"Baby, we fell for you and fell hard. And we were going to tell you the truth."
"Darling, we were heartbroken when you left and followed Hayley here to find you."
"Sweetheart, we are truly sorry and we understand if you don't forgive us but please don't take the child from us." Rebekah said sitting next to Y/N as the wolf looked at them seeing no lies but hurt broken vampires that loved a woman that they felt truly guilty for hurting.
"I forgive you. I missed you all." Y/N said tears falling down her cheeks as all four hugged her cuddling her. Y/N flushed burying her face in Kol's neck feeling them pressing closer as if to hide her away from the world promising to protect her from everything.

Don’t Over Do It
Tumblr media
Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Reader
Words: 1766
Warnings: Violence, mentions of smut, mentions of disordered eating and over-exercising, explicit language.
Summary: Your boyfriend is an asshole. Bucky reminds you that you are perfect the way you are.
A/N: Listen apparently it’s sad girl Sunday over here. This is another story from a real life thing that happened to me with a Bucky twist! Thank you forever to @river-soul​ for looking over this story. I hope you guys enjoy and if I missed any warnings please let me know!
"Doll, you okay?" Bucky wondered. "You've been really quiet all morning."
When your eyes darted up, everyone around the table was staring at you.
"Yeah, I'm fine." You looked down at your soggy bowl of cereal. "Actually I'm gonna bring this back to my room. I'm a little tired." 
You got up and left before anyone could object. You made it to your room and almost had the door shut before a metal arm pushed through.
"You don't seem like yourself. Did something happen with Sean last night?"
At the mention of your boyfriend, you flinched. Letting out a sigh you allowed Bucky to step into your room. You placed the bowl on the kitchenette counter and turned to face Bucky.
"It's nothing. Just dumb relationship stuff really," you chuckled but it was a humorless sound. "I'll be fine tomorrow, I promise."
Bucky looked at you skeptically.
"Okay, but if you need anything you know you can come to me. I'm here for you."
Bucky placed a gentle kiss on your forehead before he left. When you heard the sound of your door click shut, you grabbed your bowl and dumped it down the sink.
///////
The next day you were sitting in the shared kitchen picking at a bowl of blueberries while scribbling notes in your journal. You heard a chair scrape next to you as Bucky plopped down and leaned onto the table.
"Whatcha writing doll?"
You felt your face flush with heat. 
"I'm just writing down what I'm eating. Making sure it's all healthy, trying to be better about what goes in my body, ya know?" 
Bucky cocked his head.
"That seems like a lot of extra work. I don't think you need to keep track of what you're eating." 
He paused, eyes roamed over your figure. 
"You look great doll." 
You snorted.
 "Yeah okay, Buck whatever you say." 
You closed your journal and stood up.
 "I'm gonna head to the gym. You can have the rest of the blueberries if you want," you offered, leaving before Bucky could say anything to you.
/////////
Three hours later Bucky slammed open the door to the gym where you were dripping sweat on the treadmill.
"Steve said you've been here for hours, doll," Bucky stated an edge of anger in his voice. "You are going to run yourself straight to the med bay if you don't pace yourself."
You turned off the treadmill in a huff and stalked over to Bucky on shaky legs.
"I know my limit, Sergeant. I'm fine. Why are you being so nosey about my life all of a sudden? Yesterday, following me to my room. Today in the kitchen. What's your problem?"
"Yesterday you never made it out of your room. Did you eat anything for the rest of the day?" Bucky’s voice seemed to drip with concern. "You didn't even finish that poor excuse for a breakfast this morning and you've been here for three hours."
Your eyes dropped to the floor. You shifted uncomfortably under Bucky's gaze before your anger spiked again.
"It's none of your fucking business, Barnes. I need to lose a few pounds and how I do that is absolutely none of your concern." 
You started to shove past Bucky but stumbled your vision blurring. 
Bucky caught you as you fell into him.
"Sweetheart let me help you to your room, please." 
You looked up at him and nodded. He helped you into your room and placed you on the couch. You watched him disappear into the kitchen and return with some water before sitting next to you and pulling you into his side.
"Doll, you need to tell me what happened. What's making you do this to yourself?" 
You took in an unsteady breath.
"Yesterday Sean and I were making out in his car. It was getting pretty, um, hot and I went to get on his lap but he pushed me away. He said I was too big to have car sex with, that if I lost a few pounds we could try but he would be uncomfortable with how I looked now. That he couldn’t even attempt to maneuver me in such a small space."
You picked at a loose thread on Bucky's shirt. You didn't realize he had stopped breathing until you looked up at him and saw how red he was.
"He told you to lose weight. Because he couldn't figure out how to fuck you in a car?" Bucky seethed.
You shot up. 
“I don't think he meant it like that. I mean I've been meaning to slim down anyway. I know I put on a bit of weight since starting fieldwork."
Bucky cupped your face in his hands. 
"You've put on muscle, doll. You need it to kick ass, lord knows you can knock me to the mat like a pro. Your body is perfect exactly how it is. You do not need to put yourself through any of that shit to slim down."
Bucky’s thumbs brushed away your tears as they fell. 
"He's not a bad guy Bucky I'm sure he didn't mean to upset me. He's coming over tonight.  I'll talk to him about it."
Bucky sighed and shook his head. 
"If you need me I'm right next door," he offered, placing a kiss on your forehead.
"Thank you. I don't know what I did to deserve having someone like you in my life." 
You looked into Bucky's eyes and saw them flash with adoration.
"Oh, doll, you don't need to do anything. You deserve everything I can give you and more." 
Bucky pulled you close and hugged you. You melted into his embrace with ease.
//////
"Hey, Sean! You're just in time. I just finished up dinner."  
"Smells great." He looked at the table full of chicken parmesan, pasta, and garlic bread. "This all for me?"
You laughed. "Well, not all of it silly. I'm going to have some too."
"Don't you think this is a bit much? I thought you were trying to lose some weight. So we could, ya know, have fun anywhere." 
When he pinched the skin of your hips you sucked in a deep breath, willing the tears that pricked your eyes not to fall. 
"I just thought maybe this would be okay? I didn't think I looked that bad."
"Not bad babe just, you can tell you've put on some weight. I'm just trying to help you, do you have a salad? Maybe that'll be better for you instead." 
Just as Sean made his way towards the fridge, your door burst open to reveal Bucky. His chest was heaving and his eyes were shooting daggers.
You looked shocked as you watched him rush over to Sean with malicious intent. "Bucky stop, what are you doing?"
Bucky paused his movements but never took his death glare from Sean.
"I was walking by and I heard what he said to you."
Before you could react Bucky had Sean dangling midair. 
"You are a pathetic excuse for a man and you're lucky I don't beat the shit out of you right here. Have you ever taken one look at Y/N? She is perfect. And you don't appreciate her, she's over here pouring herself over dinner to make you happy and all you can do is worry about her weight." 
You were stunned as you watched Sean struggling in Bucky's grasp.
"Babe, are you going to tell your guard dog to heel and let me down," Sean gasped frantically.
Bucky growled as you placed a hand on his shoulder. 
"Bucky let him go. He didn't mean anything by it.”
Bucky slowly placed him on the ground. Sean moved around Bucky to face you.
“Babe of course I didn’t mean anything by it. You look beautiful, I just thought you would want to lose some of the baby fat so we could be more adventurous.”
You heard the metal plates shift before you saw Bucky pull back to knock Sean out. You gasped as Sean collapsed on the floor unconscious.
“What has gotten into you!? You heard him, he didn’t mean it he is just trying to look out for me.” You pushed Bucky back. “Why can’t you just listen to him?! He’s right! I just need to watch what I eat. Once I lose the weight I’ll be...I’ll earn his love.”
You looked into Bucky’s eyes and saw his heartbreak in real-time. 
“Y/N. You do not need to lose a single inch on yourself. Sean is a delusional asshat who wouldn’t know a gorgeous dame if she punched him in the face. You do not need to earn a person’s love.”
You stared at Bucky for a moment before you crumbled to the floor sobbing. He rushed over and cradled you to his chest, soothing you with his hands, drawing gentle patterns along your back. Sean started to stir and Bucky gently pushed you off his lap to stand and grab Sean by the collar.
“You are gone. Don’t contact her again and if I hear you’ve been around I’ll make sure you stay out a lot longer than you were,” Bucky threatened before throwing him out of your apartment.
He returned to you and helped you up. You offered him a gentle smile.
“Why did you do that Bucky?” You held your breath while you waited for his answer.
Bucky looked softly into your eyes. 
“Because you are the most beautiful person I have ever had the pleasure of knowing inside and out. Hearing what he was doing to you, warping your perception of yourself into something dangerous, I couldn’t live with myself if I stood back and did nothing. I had to protect my best girl.”
He reached out and wiped a stray tear off your face. You smiled from ear to ear and grabbed his hand to press a soft kiss on the palm.
“Thank you,” you told him, eyeing the table of food. “Well I cooked all of this and it’s probably going to get cold if we don’t eat it soon.”
“You asking me to dinner doll?” Bucky smirked.
“Well, it’s a start to thank you for everything you have done for me over the last few days. Besides I’m starving.” You started to turn around to grab the plates off the counter when Bucky grabbed your arm spinning you into him. He kissed you breathless and you were quick to deepen the kiss. 
When Bucky pulled back he was grinning.
“Let’s eat, then maybe I can show you how real men are able to fuck in a car.”

Uh unsure how many characters you’re willing to write for but can I have the SDC crew reacting to seeing their crush’s sketchbook filled with drawings and silly comics of them? On the case you do have a limit on how many, then I’m fine with either Polnareff, Kakoyin, Jotaro or Avdol (who can pick whoever if you want to!) Hope you’re having a lovely day!💕💕
This is such a cute idea anon, hope you like it. Also I don't really have a character limit, I wanted to do all of the crusaders but then I got tired and it already took me such a long time to finish it and ahhh. Sorry for all the grammatical errors, English is not my first language and it's already so late when I'm finishing it and it's just bleh. I hope you like it anyways, sending much love to you anon! ♥️
Stardust Crusaders finding their crushes' sketchbook
Jotaro Kujo
He notices that you've been spending most of your free time drawing in that sketchbook of yours. Truth be told, it bothers him a lot. Jotaro has had a big fat crush on you for a while now, and he secretly longs for your company. He can't admit that tho, he has a hard ass bad boy reputation to maintain after all. What would people say if the saw him all flustered for a girl? The fact that you would rather sit by yourself and draw than be around him and the others bugs him. So one day, when you're busy with something else, he takes your beloved sketchbook and decides to see what's in there. He knows he's being creepy, but he couldn't care less. Just trying to get to know you better, without actually talking to you. Exactly.
He's very flustered but would rather die than admit it. Has read through all of it, admiring every single little drawing. After he's done, he'll just put it back where he found it, it the exact same place just so you don't notice someone has been messing with it. You probably have no idea he had seen your sketchbook at first, but you surely notice the blush dusting his cheeks whenever he speaks to you from that day on. Probably avoids you for a little while because he's so flustered.
The rest of the crew also notices something is off, Jotaro is always lost in thoughts and smokes more frequently. He can't keep himself from thinking about those cute drawings of yours, reading through your comics was a true delight. It fills him with glee to know that HE, among all of the crusaders, is the one who's the main character in your stories. It makes him giddy on the inside.
His secret eventually comes to light one night, he accidentally admits to having read through your comics while a late night talk between the whole group. While you were talking, Kakyoin had brought up the topic of your sketchbook. Now it's your turn to be embarassed, blushing crimson while trying to get as much information out of him as possible. How much did he see? Did he read through ALL OF THEM?
The rest of the crusaders are shocked at first, but quickly they start to laugh at the scene. Jotaro is reluctant to give any information, but he eventually tells you that yes, indeed, he's seen EVERYTHING. However, doesn't admit what the content of the sketchbook really is. Despite everything, he would never embarass you like that.
After everyone goes to sleep, you catch Jotaro before he has a chance to fall asleep, lying on his sleeping bag while looking at the night sky. You want to apologize, say anything, just to talk to him, but you're unable to find right words. He just sighs.
"Yare yare daze, there's no need to be embarassed [Y/N], I'm not mad"
Your eyes light up at his words. You want to say something, anything, thank him, but before you get a chance to do so, Jotaro's deep voice cuts you off.
"To be honest, I think your drawings are amazing. I really liked them" you notice his face is slightly tinted red from underneath his cap "But if you wanted me to model for you, you could've just said so"
With that, he rolls over and away from you. Completely baboozled, you roll over as well and try to sleep, or at least pretend to be asleep. Honestly, neither of you had slept much that night.
Kakyoin Noriaki
Kakyoin had a thing for you since you joined the crusaders, and your sketchbook is probably the very first thing he had noticed about you. He's always been interested in art, his parents had signed him up to numerous art courses and whatnot through his life. He's always loved drawing and painting, using it as an escape from his daily problems, and seeing that you two might have something in common makes him incredibly happy, especially since he has feelings for you.
He'll try to approach you about your sketchbook very subtely, afraid that he might scare you away by being too pushy. Of course you get extremely flustered everytime he brings it up, but it doesn't discourage him. Kakyoin respects your boundaries and understands that you might not be ready to show him your drawings yet. Despite that, he's always willing to share his knowledge with you. He'll give you advices about proper shading while you two are waiting in the hotel lobby for the rest of the group to finish up picking rooms. During a long car ride, he'll talk to you about his favourite artists. If you want him to show you how to put certain shading techniques into practice, he'll be more than happy to do so. He'll just pick a random piece of paper and start drawing on it, you might want to lean in closer and maybe put your head on his shoulder to get a better look? He has no objections! Just sayin.
When he eventually gets to see your sketchbook, this man is so honored! He didn't mean to look, at first he though it was just some book lying around and wanted to take a look inside, out off boredom. Once he realizes what he's reading at, his face flushes with crimson. Your sketchbook is filled with sketches of him? This whole time you were actually drawing him, out of all people? He couldn't be more grateful that no one else was around, if someone saw him reading through your comics with this stupid smile on his face and red cheeks, they would've though he went mad.
Kakyoin wastes no time trying to find you. For a moment, he thinks that perhaps he should've waited a bit, just to get you alone and not embarass you infront of the whole crew. He can't think straight though, his mind filled with your cute little drawings, with his face drawn with black pen over and over again. With glee, he notes that you had used the very techniques he had told you about earlier. If you had drawn him so many times, does it mean that you have a crush on him too? It's too good to be true.
"[Y/N]! Can I talk with you for a minute?"
He goes to confront you immediately. Others give him a puzzled look, but he couldn't care less. He grabs your arms and leads you away.
"Don't be mad [Y/N], but I've seen your sketchbook and I have to say, I think your art is beyond amazing!"
You're at loss of words, your face red and you could swear that you've never felt so embarassed in your whole entire life. However, his reaction is making you feel a bit better. He's not mad, nor is he making fun of you. If anything, he seems enamoured.
"Please, [Y/N], we should draw together! Maybe next time we have a chance, I should paint your portrait?"
Despite the awkwardness, the whole situation turns out amazing in the end. How he's sure you must have feelings for him, and it makes him incredibly happy, hoping that one day, after your crusade is done, he'll get a chance to repay you and make that promised portrait.
Muhammad Avdol
With everything that's been happening lately, Avdol gets a little bit distracted from you. Before he would steal glances your way all the time, watching with curiosity as you would draw something in your sketchbook. Recently, he's been too busy fighting enemy stand users and... well, trying not to die. He still cares about you a lot and watches over you during fights, ready to shield you from danger with his own body, if it's what it takes to keep you safe.
It probably happens because of a mishap. While you are deciding on your rooming, you leave your sketchbook lying next to Avdol's things and go to the bathroom. After he's done helping Joseph with translating and getting everything done, he goes back and assumes that it's just one of his books that has fallen out of the bag. Not thinking much of it, he picks it up and leaves with Mrs Joestar to settle in their shared room.
You can imagine the panic and shock that nearly paralyzes you once you notice that your beloved sketchbook is gone, nowhere to be seen, reduced to atoms! You begin to look around frantically, looking under the furniture while sweating profusely. Other quests give you weird looks, but you don't even notice them staring. Polnareff is one of them, he asks if you're okay and tries to calm you down, but to no avail. After he leaves, you try to focus really hard and try to remember - when did you see it last time? It was on that chair for sure when you left. God, you can only pray that it doesn't end up in Avdol's hands somehow...
Meanwhile, Avdol is getting ready for shower and goes through his bag. He notices the book he picked up from the lobby isn't even a book, but a sketchbook! Now he's sure he must've picked it up by mistake, he decides it would be best to put it down and not look through it. It's someone's very personal art after all, it would be very disrespectful to - wait a damn minute, is that HIM?
Long story short, he goes through a good portion of your drawings before Joseph comes out of the shower and gives him a puzzled look, seeing how his eyes are literally shinning with adoration. He puts your sketchbook back into his bag, acting as if nothing happened and continues on with his nightly routine. Later on, when Joseph is already fast asleep, he contemplates about whether or not he should go to your room right now and ask about the sketchbook he had found. He's already suspecting it's yours, whose else would it be? He has seen you drawing often, could it be that you returned his feelings and had spent your time sketching him? Ultimately, he decides to wait until tomorrow to find out.
The very next day, he knocks on your door early in the morning. It startles you awake, running up to your door to look through a peephole, seeing a muscular man on the other side. Sighing heavily, you unlock the door and open it just a little bit.
"Excuse my intrusion, [Y/N], but I have found something that I think belongs to you."
Now that's embarassing. You see your sketchbook in his hand, a wide, knowing smile on his face. He knows it's yours. All it took is one look at your stupid red face to figure it out. God, he can read you like an open book, can't he? While you reach out to take it from him, your fingers touch just slightly.
"Don't worry, I swear I won't tell anyone about this" she winked at you, which almost made you gasp "If anything, I think I should maybe pose for you in private? So you can get a better look? You should think about it..."
Who would've thought this man could be such a flirt sometimes...
Jean Pierre Polnareff
You better watch out, because if this man has a crush on you, you bet he would go above and beyond to find out what's inside that sketchbook. I'm not joking. He forgets what personal space is, he's even worse that Jotaro, because while JoJo would make sure to be sneaky, Polnareff wouldn't even bother. He'll try to catch a sneak peak by looking over your shoulder while you're drawing, constantly asking you questions about art related things, everything always leading to your sketchbook.
He wants to know what's inside. Simple as that. You're like an enigma to him, I feel like all women are mysteries to him and he always works towards finding out what their secrets are. You are especially interesting to him, because of how secretive you are with your art. He's captivated, and while he never had any interest in arts himself, he had always fancied himself as a man with a great sense of beauty. That being said, he's always trying to get your attention while talking about how "France is a wonderful country for artists! You should come and visit after our crusade is over, [Y/N]! I'll show you all the greatest museums and art galleries!"
He's like a puppy, following you around and being just a bit too pushy. If you tell him you feel uncomfortable, he'll back off of course. He's not just some juvenile pervert after all! He's a honourable man who would never touch or bother a woman without her permission, no matter how desperate he seems sometimes.
When he finally sees your sketchbook, it's probably because he did it on purpose and not because of an accident. He wanted to make sure that it was him your were capturing in your drawing, and boy was he happy when he saw what's inside! It's all him, cute little sketches, little comics, it's better that he could've ever imagined! He's literally crying the tears of joy while reading them. Before it was all just wishful thinking, but now it turns out to be true! He's honoured, admiring every single little drawing with hit tears streaming down his face. He must look pathetic right now, if anyone was around they would think the was a mad man. He gets up and runs away with your sketchbook in his hand, trying to find you.
"[Y/N]! Ma cherie! Mon coeur! My love, my life! We need to talk!"
Did i mention that he doesn't shy away from nicknames? Yeah.
It's probably the worst confrontation compared to the rest of them, he's not subtle like Kakyoin and decides to talk with you about your drawings right then and there, in front of everyone. At first they're surprised, looking at Polnareff as is he was crazy, but slowly their shock is replaced with amusement. Joseph doesn't even try to hold back his laughter, while the rest of the crew is trying to keep it cool as not to embarass you any further while the Frenchman is just going on and on with his declarations of undying love. It's a bit dramatic, one of these moments that you will probably laugh about in the future, but you felt like disappearing right then and there.
"Your drawing are magnifique! [Y/N], my love, if you wanted to draw me, you could've just said so! Although I don't think I deserve to be potrayed by you, to be drawn by your skilled hands, ma cherie!"
You snatch the sketchbook from him. After that incident you probably try to avoid him, but he won't give up! He's more determined than ever, knowing that you feel the same way as he does fills him with hope, hope for a future life with you that is! He won't give up until he makes you the happiest woman on earth.

Heroes (And a Villain) Handling a Laughably Unfit S/O
Headcanons I came up with while thinking about how pathetic I am during my daily workout routines.
Yagi Toshinori
Tumblr media
It’s really impressive that you’re nearly as frail as him, and you don’t even have the excuse of fighting powerful villains and missing major organs.
He helped transform little Deku into a capable vessel for One For All. You shouldn’t be a problem! Don’t worry, he’s not gonna have you carrying heavy junk everyday. 
We’ve seen that Toshi still exercises, so now he’s going to drag you along on his daily jogs. No excuses. If his skeleton ass can do it, then so can you.
He’s sad about the state he’s in now, but he’s still going to do everything he can to stay relatively healthy, and so should you, dammit.
Exhausting yourselves but also motivating each other keeps both of your spirits up. 
He’s going to do what he can to rescue his lover from one of the greatest evils in the world: Physical Inactivity.
Toshi: Look at that, we reached the beach this time.
You: Are you serious? We only ran that far? Ugh, this is pitiful.
Toshi: It’s less pitiful than our last run. Good job.
You: You too :)
Shouta Aizawa
Tumblr media
If Aizawa is going to help you, he’s not gonna half-ass it. Get ready to endure his personal workout plan. 
He tries to not look too disappointed when you collapse on the fifth push-up. He’s convinced that this is gonna be more tiresome for him than for you.
No, he is not going to let you screw up your schedule and take any breaks because you didn’t sleep well or your leg hurts. 
“Every morning, seven days a week. That’s all I’m asking for. Learn some discipline.”
Will make sure you’re fit enough to at least throw a basic punch and kick.
He’s gonna make you do shit like tumbling as well. Flexibility is important.
When you fall over because you managed to hurt your ankle during some jumping jacks, he just stares.
Aizawa: “You’re expelled.”
You: “Huh?? From what?”
Aizawa: “I don’t know. But you’re expelled.”
Yamada Hizashi
Tumblr media
Hizashi is more like your personal cheerleader than a coach.
“GET PUMPED!!” is a playlist he made specially for you with music that should keep you more hyped than Rocky Balboa himself.
He’s gonna make sure you at least have enough stamina to keep up with him when you dance together.
“Hi I’m Present Mic and I’m your freestyle dance teacher.”
There’s nobody better than him when it comes to giving you full-body workouts while being super fun about it.
Your phone will buzz with voice messages. “HEEEY, my baby better be groovin’ right now! I hope you have the ‘Wiggle Wop’ memorized when I come back ‘cause I’ll be putting you to the test!”
tl;dr Hizashi is Zumba Fitness.
Hawks
Tumblr media
When Hawks hears you say that you want to improve your cardio...
“Oh, so you think you should walk more? I guess you won’t be taking any more flights with me.”
Say goodbye to your living personal plane. He’ll encourage you to reach all of your destinations on foot or on a bike.
Of course, he won’t be around much, so he’ll keep a feather on you to keep track of your activity and wellbeing.
You’re about to say “screw this” and hail a cab during a tiring walk, only for the feather to suddenly come to life and attack you. The driver watches you squeal while the tiny flying object assaults your ribs and shoves you away from the car. He just shrugs and moves on to find a customer that isn’t dealing with...whatever’s happening to you.
Hawks: “You’ve gotta try this new food joint with me. It’s on the other side of town.”
You: “Sounds nice, just pick me up an-”
Hawks: “Nope.”
While you’re fuming and your stomach growls, Hawks discovers that it’s pretty nice to slow down and just walk with you. 
He doesn’t expect you to make the whole journey. Once you’ve exhausted yourself and worked up an appetite, he’ll scoop you up in his arms. Feels like he hasn’t done that in forever!
Taishiro Toyomitsu
Tumblr media
Taishiro will be there to keep an eye on your diet as well as your fitness.
As a guy who’s always fattening himself up, he knows which foods cause the most weight gain and health issues.
Now Tai doesn’t believe in eating meals so light that you’re practically starving yourself. “That’s just gonna make ya crave the bad stuff even more!”
He’ll make sure you’re burning those delicious calories and carbs instead of sitting around and letting it all turn into fat. 
Sure, his quirk sounds great right about now, but at least you’re not always hungry like him. That’s not easy on the wallet!
He can recommend a lot of places for healthier eating. You’ll even get plenty of discounts thanks to his reputation among restaurants. “Just tell them Fatgum sent you!”
He personally prefers weight training, but you’re always welcome to try something less strenuous around him.
Hey look, Kirishima and Amajiki are here too!
You: Doesn’t Amajiki eat a wide variety of stuff? What keeps him thin?
Fatgum: Stress.
Kirishima: Stress.
Amajiki: A lot of stress.
Tomura Shigaraki
Tumblr media
Shiggy doesn’t care.
Or at least, he didn’t. Until he watched you play an active video game and you said that your arms were tired. It hasn’t even been thirty minutes.
Fuck that. If you’re gonna have the audacity to ask him to stop his rpg grinding so that you can play Wii Sports together, at least last long enough for him to enjoy himself. Didn’t mean to make that last part sound suggestive.
“For god’s sake. Do some arm rolls or something.”
Besides, exercise sharpens your brain to perform better during gaming. He always feels ready to face the hardest boss after killing people. Murder really gets the blood pumping.
He tosses you an old dance mat so that you can get your DDR on.
Once your stamina and strength is maxed out, he makes you play with him again. And look at that, your mind is clear enough to properly strategize now!
Shigaraki: Not bad.
You: Thanks. So...can we play bowling now?”
Shigaraki: “......Fine.”

Mission Complete Ch. 4
You had two goals in life. One: Complete your squad training without dying. Two: Fuck Levi Ackerman
Pairings: Levi/f!reader
Warnings: Swearing, eventual smut, lmk if I need to add anything~
"Hey fuckface, wake up."
You groaned in response, slowly blinking your eyes open and holding your hand up to shield them from the rain. At least now it was nothing more than a light drizzle. Once your vision stopped spinning you decided to slowly take in your surroundings, using your other hand to rub the back of your head. You winced, pulling back the limb to see your fingertips stained red. "What the fuck-"
"Look up, you dumb bitch!"
You narrowed your eyes, raising your gaze to the man currently hurling insults at you. "Is that any way to speak to an injured soldier? My head is bleeding!"
"And my ass is dirty, but it looks like we're both going to be just fine. Don't even complain, you're not the one who had to fight off a dozen wannabe bandits in the pouring rain. You hit your head on a branch going down-"
You tuned out the rest of whatever Levi was spitting out to finally take in your surroundings. Crudeness of his statement aside, your head didn't really hurt as long as you didn't touch it, and after a quick assessment you surmised that you had no other injures, which brought you to your next problem.
"Uh Cap, quick question. Where the fuck am I?"
Levi rolled his eyes at the interruption. "What does it look like? You're in a pit."
You frowned. No shit. Taking a look around you figured you were maybe thirty feet down, and considering how perfectly circular it was, this had to have been man made, although very old, judging by the grass you were currently sitting on. With your back against the ground you had maybe ten feet of room in front of you. "Who dug this? Why is this here?"
"No one really knows, they've been here since anyone can remember. Erwin thinks they were dug to deter Titans when humanity first constructed the walls, said something about it reduces the risk of being grabbed when it's too busy trying to pick it's fat ass off the ground. We carved symbols into the trees when we first discovered them to indicate where the pits were but because of the rain and those weak assholes I missed it. You got knocked off your horse and fell down there."
You gasped. "Where is Sue-Sue? Is she okay?"
Levi frowned. "I don't know. She took off after that guy knocked you out, taking the supply wagon with her. One of your bags fell but the rest is with her, which poses our next problem. I have nothing to get you out of there. It would be at least half a day's walk to get back to camp. I can go back to town and buy some rope, but I'll be gone at least a few hours."
You frowned, it was already almost dark and while you had no problem putting your life on the line for humanity you weren't exactly thrilled about being stuck in a hole for several hours. "Fine, but you better run! I don't want any of those creeps to come back and find me," you whined.
Four hours later
You groaned, crossing your arms over your chest. You were cold as shit, you were wet -and not in an enjoyable fashion- you were hungry, and you were fucking tired of being stuck in a goddamn hole.
"Ugh!" You took your frustrations out on a root sticking out, kicking at it angrily. Where the hell was Levi? He'd said he back in a few hours, hadn't he been gone long enough? How fucking long does it take to walk to town, buy some rope, and come back? They hadn't been that far away from town, or so you thought. What if something happened? What if his dumb ass had fallen into a hole? What if no one found you?
You screamed in frustration, kicking the root over and over again. "Son of a bitch! I am not-
-kick-
going to die
-kick-
without getting
-kick-
some good dick
-kick-
at least once!"
You collapsed on the ground, adding an aching foot to your list of complaints.
"Well, I can't say I've heard that one before."
Your head shot up, your body finding enough heat to fill your cheeks with warmth as you made eye contact with the exact person you wanted said good dick from.
"Uh, Cap, didn't see you there-"
Levi rolled his eyes. "So tell me, is that the first thing you're going to look for when we get back to camp?" He drawled, holding up the rope he'd managed to find.
You cursed your inability to never keep your fucking mouth shut. You decided not to answer him; at this rate, you were going to spill your guts and beg him to fuck you. You crossed your arms over your chest instead, averting your eyes.
He huffed when he saw he would get no response from you, turning his attention to your forgotten pack. "Oi, do you have something in here for padding? The only rope I was able to find is shitty, it's going to tear right through your shirt and I don't feel like returning back to camp with a half naked soldier, especially after what you were just bitching about," he grumbled the last part to himself, opening up your bag to sift through the items in search of something useful.
That got a reaction from you. You shot your head up, shaking it fervently even though he was out of your sight. If Levi found your dildo, especiallyafter this, you'd never hear the end of it. "No, wait!" You heard him shuffling around in your things and you prayed it had somehow fallen out during the scuffle.
Levi popped back into your vision again, holding up a small cloth he'd gotten from your bag. His face showed no other trace of emotion so you figured you'd gotten lucky, although you pouted to yourself knowing it would be a while before you could come up with an excuse to come back into town to find another replacement. You caught the cloth as he threw it down, grabbing the rope and securing the cloth so it wouldn't tear the back of your shirt. Levi grunted as he hauled you up and you dug your feet into the soft ground, half climbing, half crawling your way up. When you finally reached the surface you collapsed onto the grass, panting for breath as you lay flat on your back. You closed your eyes and took a deep breath, taking a moment to calm yourself.
"Now that that's over, get your ass up. It's too late and we're both too tired to walk all night, it's at least a day's walk back to camp with no horses. We'll walk back to town, eat some food, find somewhere to sleep, and then walk back in the morning," he barked, turning away from you to begin the walk back.
You begrudgingly got up, grabbing your pack and slinging it over your shoulder. You made a mental note to see if your little friend had survived.
"Oh, and Scout? You dropped this." Levi didn't even bother looking back as he tossed the item over his shoulder.
You caught it with both hands, wanting to simultaneously laugh and cry at the same time. You briefly considering jumping back into that hole, it had to give you a better fate than this.
What could possibly be worse than the object of your thirst throwing your own dildo at you?

The Things You Give Pt 13
AN: Another part is up! Let me know what you’re thinking of the series so far because I’m thinking of ending it soon because I’d hate for it to go on longer than needed. But I am having a lot of fun writing it and love hearing back from you guys! Thank you all for those that have been reading since the beginning and if you’re just finding the series, welcome! Enjoy!
Steven Hyde x Reader
Tumblr media
October 15, 1978
The Forman Kitchen
Point Place, Wisconsin           
The morning at the breakfast table, things still hadn’t changed between the three teenagers, but they were at least able to be around each other without fists flying, so y/n took that as a plus. Y/n could barley eat though. She had woken up feeling sick to her stomach; the thought of food repulsing her. She nibbled on her toast and couldn’t even sip on her orange juice without wanting to vomit.             
“Y/n, are you okay?” Kitty asked concerned. “You’ve barley touched your breakfast.”          
Y/n groaned. “Just feeling a little sick is all.”            
Kitty hummed and pressed the back of her hand to y/n’s forehead. “You don’t feel warm. Maybe it was something you ate.”            
Y/n groaned again and put her head down. “Maybe.”           
 “Hey Dad, can you pass the bacon?” Eric asked, stretching arm out.            
Y/n gagged and groaned. “Please don’t say bacon.”           
 Eric smirked and grabbed a piece, biting into it. “Mhmmmm…bacόn.”           
 “Please stop,” she grumbled, her stomach churning.            
“It’s so juicy and chewy and the fat at the end is the best part,” Eric continued, laughing.            
“Oh, God! Did you have to say that?!” she screeched as she made haste to the nearest bathroom. She could feel the contents of her stomach rising before she made it to the bathroom.            
“Did you really have to do that?” Kitty asked, disappointed.             
“Yes,” Eric responded. “Yes, I did.”            
Kitty shook her head in disapproval and brought her fork of food to her mouth.            
Red glared at his son before returning his attention to the newspaper.            
“What?!” Eric asked. “She started it!”            
“Oh, boo hoo, she broke your dolls,” Red mocked.           
 “G.I Joes,” Eric corrected.           
 “Whatever,” his father answered. “Whatever she did isn’t worth making her throw up over.”            
Yes, it is, Eric thought.            
Y/n returned to the kitchen, her skin ashen and her eyes sunken. “I think I’m going to go back to bed so I don’t barf all over the table.”            
“Well, okay honey,” Kitty said getting up and taking her plate to the sink. “I’ll bring you some soup later, okay?”            
Y/n shook her head, making a face of disgust. “Please, Mom. I can’t even think about food right now.”           
 “Well, you have to get some food in you,” Kitty responded. “Otherwise you’ll get even more sick.”            
Y/n nodded. “Okay. I just really want to go back to bed.”            
“Okay sweetie,” Kitty responded, rubbing her daughter’s shoulder. “We’ll see you later.”            
Y/n nodded and stole a glance at Hyde before she made her way upstairs.         
“Eric, I need you to mow the lawn later,” Red demanded as he finished his breakfast.            
“What? Why can’t Hyde do it?”            
“Because unlike your sorry ass, I actually have work,” Hyde replied.           
 Eric glared at him before turning back to Red. “Why do I always have to do it?”           
 “Because I said so!” Red barked.                                                 
                                                   --Time Skip—           
 “So, you think you got food poisoning, huh?” Donna asked that night over the phone.             
Y/n nodded before she realized she was talking over the phone. “Yeah, I do. Every time I move, my body screams at me. My back is hurting so much. And my stupid cramps aren’t helping any either.”           
 “Have you been throwing up that much?”            
“Yeah,” Y/n replied, wiping her sweaty and oily hair out of her face. “I think I pulled a muscle in my back or something because of it. Even my boobs hurt.”    
  “Nausea, back aches, and tender breasts,” Donna counted off. “Hey, you may be pregnant.” Donna chuckled at her own joke.           
 “Ha ha,” Y/n chortled. “You’re funny. Definitely not pregnant.”           
 “Yeah? And how do you know?”            
“Because I’m supposed to be getting my period in a few days. These could be symptoms of PMS. Or maybe both.”            
“Supposed to,” Donna pushed, putting emphasis on her words.            
“Shut up,” Elena laughed. “Stop saying that. I’m not pregnant. Eric would throw himself off a cliff if that happened. Or Hyde. Or Eric would push Hyde off a cliff. One of the three.”          
  Donna chuckled. “But seriously, are you alright?”            
“Yeah, I’m fine. Just can’t do much for a couple of days.”            
“Okay, well if you need anything, you know where to find me.”            
“Thanks Donna,” Y/n said. “I’m going to go to sleep. I’ll talk to you later.”            “Alright, rest easy. Talk to you later.”            
Y/n hung up the phone before turning back around and falling back asleep, feeling her stomach churning. Pregnant.            
The word echoed in her head as sleep quickly enveloped her.                                                                             --Time Skip—           
 “Guys!” Kelso called as he barged through the door in the basement. “The Omen is on TV right now!” He hurriedly made his way over to the television set, switching on the movie.           
 “Kelso, what the hell, man? We were watching that!” Hyde piped up.            “C’mon, it’s Halloween season!” Kelso argued. “Tis the season to be jolly!”            
“That’s Christmas, moron,” Jackie said from behind him.           
 “Well, whatever! I think we should get in the spirit.”            
The gang groaned as they leaned back into their seats.           
 “Hey, where’s y/n?” Hyde asked.            
“Oh, she’s upstairs sleeping,” Donna answered nonchalantly.            
“Still? It’s six o’ clock,” he responded. “She’s been upstairs since this morning.”    
“Well, food poisoning is a real bitch,” she replied. “And so is PMS.”           
 “Alright, TMI,” Eric said and got up to turn up the volume on the TV.            
“Oh, Eric, don’t be such a prude,” Fez said. “It’s completely natural. In my culture, we honor women whenever they go through their monthly ordeal. It’s kind of a big deal. We thank the gods and celebrate their womanhood. Then, we bring them flowers and chocolates and some candy too. Or whatever else they’re craving. They get a week off and can stay at home in bed while their husbands, brothers, fathers, or sons take care of everything.”            
“Wow…can I join your culture?” Donna asked.          
  Fez chuckled. “Sure, if you feel like eating bugs for breakfast.”            
Donna grimaced. “Never mind.” She turned to Eric. “Why don’t you do that for me?”            
“Because a woman shouldn’t bleed for seven days straight and still live,” he deadpanned.           
 “Yeah, I don’t trust anything that can bleed for that long and not die,” Kelso said.            
Hyde looked at him amused. “You can’t even be with a woman for seven days straight, let alone be there for her during her monthly problem.”           
 “Not true! I was with Jackie for three years!”           
 “And you cheated on me at least once a month!” Jackie responded. “Hey…wait a minute!”           
 “You guys, women are sacred. They need to be honored and cherished during this time because the pain they go through, we will never understand,” Fez said gently.            
 “We don’t understand?” Hyde said. “Have you ever been kicked in the nads?”            
“Okay, sure, but imagine getting kicked in the nads for at least 3 days straight,” Donna responded.             
“Oh, God!” Eric said, squirming in his seat. “I can’t even imagine that!”            
“Well, sometimes, it’s even more painful,” Jackie added.             
“What does it feel like?” Kelso asked, staring at her.            
“Well, it can feel like someone is taking a knife to your pelvis and slowly twisting it,” Jackie responded causing all the men in the room to squirm, except for Fez.            
“Fez, man, how are you not effected by this?” Kelso asked.            
“I grew up with five sisters,” he responded, shrugging. “Nothing I’m not used to.”            
“Are you guys seriously talking about periods?” Y/n asked as she slowly made her way down the stairs.            
“Hey, you’re up,” Donna stated. “How are you feeling?”            
“Pretty lousy,” Y/n said. “But I’d rather be miserable with company than go through it alone.” She plopped down on the couch next to where Hyde was sitting.            
“Are you going through your…girl problem?” Kelso asked nervously.            
“What? No,” Y/n replied. “I mean, I could be, but it could also be food poisoning.”           
 “Well, what did you eat?” Hyde asked.            
“Nothing out of the ordinary and nothing that you guys didn’t eat,” she replied.           
 “Must be the PMS thing then,” Donna said, laughing when Eric shifted uncomfortably in his seat.           
 “Can we please stop talking about my sister’s cycle? It’s giving me a very vivid image that I’d rather not have.”            
“Y/n, do you need anything?” Fez asked sweetly. “Chocolate? Water? A hot water bottle?”            
Y/n smiled at him. “Why, yes, Fez. That would be lovely.”           
 “Okay, I’ll be right back!” Fez beamed and hopped out the chair to run out the door.           
 “Hey, man, why are you taking care of my chick?” Hyde asked, stopping Fez at the door. “That’s my job.”           
 “Then why aren’t you doing it?” Fez shot back.            
Y/n’s mouth fell open in a laugh as she covered it with her hand. Donna and Jackie tightened their lips to keep themselves for laughing.            
“’Cause she didn’t ask,” he responded.            
“She shouldn’t have to,” Fez said calmly. “You should just do it for her. That’s how you keep your woman happy.”            
“Then why couldn’t you keep Jackie happy?” Hyde quipped.            
Y/n gasped. “Steven!”            
“No, no it’s okay,” Fez said, oddly calm. “You know, Hyde, normally that would bother me, but not today because I’m not the one having another man making my woman happy.”            
Hyde grabbed the nearest object—a magazine—and threw it at Fez, but before it could hit him, he slammed the door shut; the magazine hitting the door with a thud.            
 “He’s right, you know,” Y/n responded with a smile.            
“Do you really feel that way?” Hyde asked her.            
Y/n shrugged. “Not really. It would be nice though.”            
“I see,” Hyde said and stood from his chair, stalking his way to his room.           
 “Steven, wait!” she called after him. “I wasn’t being serious!”            
He flapped a hand at her without turning to look at her and slammed his door.            
“Wow,” Jackie said, puffing out her cheeks. “That escaladed quickly.”           
Y/n shrunk down in her seat, feeling guilty. “What else is new with this group?” 
 “This is great!” Eric beamed, causing everyone to stare at him in confusion. “Now Hyde is mad at you too! Not just me.”           
 Y/n groaned and stood up slowly. “You’re an immature dillhole. I’m going back to bed.”           
 “What should I tell Fez when he gets back?” Donna asked.           
 “That I’m upstairs and he can come up.”           
 “I don’t think Hyde will like that very much,” Kelso mentioned.            
“Who cares?” Eric griped.           
 “Look, I’ll deal with Hyde later,” Y/n responded, ignoring her twin. “Right now, I just want to feel better.” She trudged up the stairs, leaving the group alone.           
 “What a mess,” Donna said.          
  “Tell me about it,” Jackie responded. “Eric, are you still mad at them?”           
 “Of course, I am!” he responded, surprised that Jackie would ask him such a question. “How can I not be?”           
 “Well, you can try not being mad,” Jackie suggested sarcastically.            
 “Eric, give it a rest, yeah?” Donna said. “It’s been over a week.”           
 Eric growled and leaned back in his seat.            
 “He was supposed to be moved out by now,” he mumbled.           
 “Shut. Up. Please,” Donna snapped. “He literally has nowhere to go. You have to be a real prick to throw him out on the streets. It’s not like he murdered your sister.”            
“You just don’t get it, Donna!” he whined. The whole group groaned.            
“Yeah, yeah, yeah we don’t get it because it’s not our sister and we would be pissed too if Hyde was nailing her, blah blah blah. Seriously, Eric, I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say we’re sick of hearing about it,” Kelso said, irritated. He just wanted to watch the movie. Why wasn’t anybody respecting that?            
Eric furrowed his brows at his friends. “You guys really feel this way?”            
“YES!” Jackie, Donna, and Kelso said in unison.           
 “Oh. Well, then, fine,” Eric grumbled and stood up.           
 “Where are you going?” Donna asked.           
 “Since you guys are tired of hearing about it, I’m going to go somewhere else.”           
 “Oh my God, you are such a drama queen,” Donna groaned. “Just sit back down and watch the movie with us.”            
“Nah, I’m good. See you guys later.” With that, he grabbed his coat and shut the door, leaving the three teenagers left to watch the movie.            
“He’s gotten more annoying than usual,” Jackie commented.            
“You know, Jackie, normally I would be offended by that, but this time I have to agree with you,” Donna responded.            
“Well, now we can watch the movie,” Kelso said.            
The three sat in silence on the couch until Kelso tried to sneak his hand up Donna’s leg.           
 “Kelso!” Donna screeched as she slapped his hand away.           
 “Damn, Donna! I was just looking for the remote!”           
 “The remote is on the table, you idiot,” Jackie pointed out.           
 Kelso looked between the two girls with a hurt look. “Women are mean!” He stomped out the basement, forgetting the movie.            
The girls looked at each other and shrugged, returning their attention to the TV before Donna got up to change it back to the channel they were watching.                                                
                                                 --Time Skip—            
Y/n stared down at the home pregnancy test, shock filling her. Positive. The test was freaking positive. She was going to be a mother. Oh God, how would everyone else react? What kind of mother was she going to be?           
 “Oh, Y/n, how could you?” Kitty asked from behind her, hurt playing on her face.    
“Wait, Mom--!” Y/n tried to call after her mother before Red showed up at her side.           
 “How could you be such a disgrace to the family?!” Red shouted, his face turning pink. Kitty turned to her husband’s side and started sobbing. “Look what you’re doing to your mother!”            
“No, but Daddy—” Y/n said, tears welling in her eyes.            
“Wow, you’re such a whore!” Eric laughed as he suddenly appeared by their parents’ side. “And here I thought Laurie would be the one to get knocked up from some rando.”            
“What?” she asked her twin, tears cascading down her pale cheeks.            
“Wow, little sister, you certainly top me,” Laurie said, smirking.            
“Laurie?” Y/n questioned.           
 “I’m leaving you,” Steven said coldly, appearing in front of her. “You were just a fling. You knew this from the start. I can’t have a baby with a loser.”           
 “You said you loved me!” Y/n screamed.          
  “I lied,” Steven said and smirked. “I only strung you along so that I could nail you. Now, look at you. You’re fat and alone.”            
Y/n looked down and saw that her stomach had enlarged. “What?” she whispered.           
 “We can’t have you in the family,” Kitty suddenly said. “We can’t have a whore in the family.”            
“You have Laurie!”           
 “At least she didn’t get pregnant!” her mother shot back. “You and your mistake can get out of our house, out of our lives. You’re no longer welcome!”            
“No, Mom! Please, I need you. I need Daddy and Steven, please. I can’t do this alone. I need you more than ever.”           
 She went to grab his hands, but he jerked away from her. “Well, you’re gonna have to do it alone.”            
Tears cascaded down her face as she tried to blink them away, but as quickly as they appeared, they disappeared. Suddenly, Y/n found herself sitting alone in a total darkness, a single light shining above her.           
 “No,” she whimpered, looking around. “No. No. NO!”            
Y/n jerked awake, sweat coating her forehead. Her breathing was slightly heavy as she glanced at the clock. 2:08AM. She sighed and fell back onto her pillow, fingers threading through her sweaty and knotted hair. She couldn’t believe she’d been asleep for eight hours.            
Her room suddenly flooded with light as Kitty, dressed in her pink robe, hair a rat’s nest, stood in her cracked door. “Y/n, honey, are you alright? I heard you yelling.”           
 “Yeah, yeah, I’m fine,” Y/n replied. “Just had a nightmare.”            
“Oh, honey, it’s okay,” Kitty replied and moved closer to adjust herself on the bed. “You know, when you were little, you would get nightmares all the time. And the only thing that would soothe you and get you to go back to sleep is when I would gently caress your hair until you fell back asleep.”            
Y/n smiled softly. “Too bad I’m older now, huh?”            
“Oh, nonsense,” Kitty said and leaned over, caressing her hair back. “You’re never too old for your mother’s love.”            
Y/n smiled and turned on her side, facing Kitty.            
“You wanna talk about it?” she asked her daughter after a moment of silence.            
Y/n thought about it for a minute. She actually wanted to talk to her about it, but she knew if she did, she could open up something that she really didn’t want to. Even if it were just a dream, Kitty would know that it was something much deeper than that.            
“No,” she responded after a beat. “I’m okay. Thank you, though.”          
  “Of course sweetheart,” Kitty cooed. She continued to smooth Y/n’s hair, effectively calming her down. Fifteen years later and it still works.           
 Y/n could already feel sleep overcoming her again. “Thank you, Mommy,” she mumbled as her eyelids grew heavier.            
“You’re absolutely welcome,” Kitty responded and leaned over to kiss her forehead. “I love you.”           
 ��I love you too,” Y/n whispered before falling asleep once more.                                                                         
                                                 ⧝⧝⧝            
Y/n woke up the next day, just as horrible as the day before. She dragged herself out of bed and trudged downstairs to see her family eating lunch.            
“Morning Sunshine,” Kitty cheerfully greeted her. “You must be really sick to sleep in till noon.”            
Y/n grunted back and grabbed some orange juice and sat down. The smell of their lunch making her nose curl, repulsing her.           
 “How’re you feeling, kitten?” Red asked.            
“I’m okay,” Y/n responded. “Could be better. Still feel kinda nauseas and tired.”            
“You want some dry toast?” Kitty asked. “You haven’t eaten much.”           
Y/n nodded tiredly and put her head on the table. “I’d love some actually.”            
Kitty smiled and got up, popping bread in the toaster. “Oh, your foreign friend dropped off some stuff for you. I left it here on the counter.”            
“Hm?” Y/n hummed, looking at Kitty.            
“He said something to do with your menstrual cycle, so he dropped off a hot water bottle, some midol, and a box of chocolate.”           
 “Oh, come on, Kitty, not while we’re eating!” Red exclaimed, disgusted.           
 The whole time, Eric and Steven had been quiet. Steven glared at the gifts through his aviators. Eric rolled his eyes and continued to eat his lunch.            
“What a sweet boy!” Kitty laughed. “You know, I don’t think I’d mind if you ended up with him.”            
Y/n smiled as Kitty set a plate of two slices of dry toast in front of her.           
 “I’m going to make you some tea as well. You gotta get some liquids in you,” Kitty stated.           
 “Kitty, don’t put ideas in her head!” Red said, throwing down the paper he was reading.           
 “What do you mean by that?” Y/n asked, offended. “Is it because of his skin color?”            
“What?” Red asked, scrunching up his face. “God, no! I don’t want you dating anybody. You’re too young.”           
 “Dad, I’m eighteen,” Y/n deadpanned as she nibbled at her toast. “Eric and Donna have been dating since they were, like, eight.”            
“No, we haven’t,” Eric argued.            
 “Shut up, yes you have,” Y/n said.            
“Eric’s different,” Red continued. “Eric is a man, or as close of a man as he can get. Besides, Donna is the best he’s ever going to do.” He started laughing, but he was the only one who found that funny.           
 “Thanks Dad,” Eric deadpanned.            
“Red Forman!” Kitty exclaimed.            
“What? It’s funny!” Kitty gave him a hard look making him shut up. “Fine, it’s not.”            
Y/n managed a small smile before bringing a piece of toast to her lips. “Don’t worry, Dad. I’m not even seeing anyone.”            
Eric stopped mid-bite to give side eye to his twin sister. Y/n returned a hard, cold stare to her brother as if to say don’t you freaking dare.           
 “So, Fez gave you those huh?” Steven asked.            
“Yeah, I guess,” Y/n replied. “That was really nice of him.”           
 “Yeah, real nice,” he responded slowly.            
“It was,” Y/n replied, staring at her boyfriend in suspicion. “You got something to say?”           
 “No, why would I?” he responded. “Why would I have anything to say that my best friend is flirting with my…other best friend?”            
Kitty stood at the stove as she waited for the tea to heat up and squinted her eyes at Steven before looking to her husband who was giving him the same look.           
 “What’s your deal, Hyde?” Y/n asked him, growing annoyed with him.            
“Oh, nothing,” he responded. “I’m just saying that he’s never done this for another girl before unless it was Jackie.”            
“Steven, what’re you getting at?” Red asked him.            
“Oh, I don’t know. Why don’t you tell me, Y/n?” Hyde said, staring coldly at her.           
 Y/n returned the glare. “If you’re insinuating that Fez likes me, you are terribly, terribly wrong.”            
“Then why would he do it for you?” he asked impatiently.           
 “I don’t know!” Y/n responded, flabbergasted. “Because he wants to be nice?”            
“Nice, ha!” Steven hollered, causing everyone to look at him in surprise. “Guys don’t do things just to be nice.”            
Y/n gave him a look. “Why do you care so much what he does?”           
 “Yeah, Hyde. Why do you care?” Eric asked with a smirk.            
Steven realized what he was doing and looked at everyone who was looking at him with furrowed brows. He straightened his posture and looked down at his lunch, clearing his throat. “I don’t. I just find it rather odd.”            
“And if Fez does like me, what’s it to ya?” Y/n asked, cocking her head to the side.           
 “It doesn’t,” Hyde replied coldly, taking a sip from his iced tea.             
Y/n lifted an eyebrow at him before finishing off her toast.             
“Is there something going on between you two?” Red asked.            
The couple stole a glance at each other before looking to Red.           
 “No, not at all,” Y/n replied casually.           
 “Why would there be?” Steven asked.            
“I don’t know. You’re acting weird,” Red commented. “Stop it.”            
Steven grinned at him. “Yes, sir.”           
 “Here’s your tea, sweetheart,” Kitty said, bringing over a mug of tea. “And I put in some honey, Honey.” She laughed at her own joke.            
Y/n chuckled softly. “Thanks, Mom.”           
 “Oh, by the way, Sasha called for you yesterday,” Kitty said, sitting back down.            
Y/n perked up. “She did? Why?”          
  “I’m not too sure. She wanted to talk to you about something, but I told her you weren’t feeling well. So, I took down her number and told her you’d give her a call back when you feel better.”           
 “Yeah, I’ll call her back once I can stop vomiting.”            
“And yet, you’ve been able to achieve that this whole time,” Eric said sarcastically. “Must feel nice to finally be able to achieve something for once. Congrats, sis.”           
Y/n glared at him. “If I could control it, I’d do it on you right now.”            
“Okay, that’s enough,” Kitty cut in. “Finish your lunches.”            
“I can’t. I’m going downstairs to watch TV,” Y/n whimpered.           
 “Okay. Don’t forget your tea!” Kitty called out.            
Y/n turned back around and grabbed the warm mug between her cold hands and made her way downstairs. On her way, she grabbed the midol and the hot water bottle.            
At this point, Steven was seething as he watched his girlfriend take Fez’s gifts.        
 “Alright, well, I’m heading out for a few,” Steven announced, quickly getting up. “Thanks for the lunch, Mrs. Forman.”           
 “Oh, you’re welcome, dear,” she responded.           
 “Wanna come?” Hyde asked Eric.            
Eric looked up at him. “What for?”           
 “Just come on,” Hyde pushed and grabbed Eric by the shirt, tugging him out the door.           
 “But I’m not finished!” Eric whined.           
 “You are now,” Hyde said before closing the sliding door.            
“What’s with them?” Red asked.           
 “I have no clue,” Kitty responded, not caring. “They’re always up to something.”             
Outside, Eric shoved himself out of Hyde’s grasp. “What the hell, man?”            
“Get in the car,” Hyde ordered, unlocking the El Camino.            
“What? No,” Eric said, standing in his place.           
 “Get in. We have to talk.”           
 Eric crossed his arms. “I have nothing to say to you.”            
 “Great. Then you can just listen,” Hyde responded standing in front of the driver’s side door, waiting for Eric to get in. His arm rested on top of the car casually as if not a care in the world. “You going to get in?”            
“Why should I?”           
 Hyde groaned. “Just get in the car, man!”            
“Are you kidnapping me?” Eric asked as he slowly made his way to the passenger’s side.            
“Of course not.”            
“You gonna take me to the middle of nowhere, take my clothes after you convince met to skinny dip in the lake, and abandon me while I walk around naked and afraid like last time?”            
Hyde rolled his eyes. “I came back for you, didn’t I?”           
 “Three hours later!”           
 “For the love of God, just shut up and get in the car!”           
 “It was so cold,” Eric whimpered as he slid in the front seat and shut the door. “Where are we going?”           
 “For a drive,” Hyde responded and backed out the driveway. Once they were on the road, Hyde broke the silence. “Listen, man. This whole thing between you, me, and Y/n has gotten way out of hand.”            
“You don’t have to tell me.”            
“What happened to you shuttin’ up and letting me talk?”           
 Eric sighed, making a face. “Fine.”           
 “Look,” Hyde began. “I know you’re pissed off at us for dating and going behind your back—”           
 “And lying.”           
 “…Yeah, and lying about it. But I need you to know that everything I said is true. Y/n is the best thing that’s ever happened to me and when I say that I will do whatever I can to make her happy, I mean it. And this whole ending a friendship over it is stupid.”           
 Eric stared at Hyde in disbelief. “You’re serious about this? About my sister?”             
“Yeah, man. That’s why I’m here talking to you,” he responded and turned onto the main road. “I know we could’ve gone around it differently, but come on man, what would you have done? You’ve been saying that we need to put ourselves in your shoes, well put yourself in our shoes. Imagine if Donna was my sister, but you really liked her. What would you have done?”           
 Eric was silent for a minute. “Well, we probably wouldn’t be friends considering you kissed her and tried to get with her.”            
Hyde gave an exasperated sigh. “Man, will you focus?”            
 Eric thought about it for a second. “I guess I can understand that.”           
 “And I want you to know that I won’t disappoint her. I will take care of her and make sure she gets everything she wants and needs. I’m not going to be like the rest of my family and be a deadbeat and end up in prison. I will do good for her.”            
Eric turned his gaze to him and suddenly felt an anchor of guilt settle in the pit of his stomach. “Oh, man. Look, Hyde when I said that…I didn’t mean it. I was angry and—”           
 “It’s fine,” Hyde said, cutting in.            
“No, no it’s not,” Eric turned to face him. “It was wrong of me to say that to you. It’s just that…she’s my sister, man. My twin, you know? My favorite sister. I can’t help but feel, you know, maybe a little overprotective of her.”            
“No, but you were right,” Hyde confessed and turned onto the highway. “I probably was headed down that path anyway. But being with her has actually made me want to be better.”            
Eric looked at Hyde like he had two heads. “You look like my friend, but you don’t sound like him. Where’s Hyde?!”           
 Hyde chuckled and turned off the highway, noticing Eric calling him his friend. “I know. It’s sickening.”            
Eric laughed and turned back around, facing the front. He noticed they were entering downtown. “Hyde…where are we going? This isn’t just a drive anymore.”            
“You’ll see in a minute,” he said and continued down a narrow road before stopping in front of a super store. He turned the car off and sat back quietly. “Just so you know, this wasn’t easy for me to talk about it. So, if you tell anyone, I’ll deny the whole thing.”            
Eric nodded and looked at Hyde seriously. “I’m still not happy about it, but I guess I don’t have a choice but to accept it. You two really do seem happy.”            
Hyde nodded and looked down. “We are, man.”            
“Just…don’t hurt her,” Eric said. “Then I’d have to kick your ass and then I’d end up getting my ass kicked and then Red will kick my ass for getting my ass kicked and then he’d hunt you down like a dog and then he’d kick your ass.”            
Hyde sat there in stunned silence. “Wow…that’s…detailed. How long have you been sitting on this?”            
“Pretty much since I found out.”           
 “Wow.”           
 “Yeah,” Eric replied. “Also, one more thing. I don’t wanna hear or see you and my sister doing anything. The image of you two doing anything makes me want to hurl.”          
  “Deal,” Hyde chucked. “So, are we good?”          
  Eric looked at him for a moment and grinned. “Yeah, man, we’re good.”            
Hyde nodded and the two boys lifted their hands, bringing each other in for bro-hug.           
 “Can I just ask you one question, though?” he asked.            
Hyde hummed.           
 “Why her? Why Y/n?”            
Hyde sighed, shaking his head. “I don’t know, man. She’s different. She’s smart and actually funny, interesting, and genuine. Really sweet and cares about others beside herself. Besides, she’s smoking hot.”            
“Well, I’d never thought I’d hear my best friend put my sister and ‘smoking hot’ in the same sentence,” Eric retorted and pretended to gag. “Really, really unpleasant.”           
 “I know. I just said that because I think it’s funny,” Hyde laughed.          
  Eric slugged him in the shoulder. “And every time you say stuff like that, you’ll get hit.”            
They laughed lightly together before Eric slapped a hand on Hyde’s shoulder. “And, uh, don’t worry about my parents. Your secret is safe with me.”            
“Thanks, man,” Hyde replied. “Well, let’s go inside.”           
 “Why are we at this one?” Eric asked, joining Hyde outside the car. “You know there’s like three different stores in town. Why this one?”           
 “Because this is the biggest one in Point Place and they have everything I want.”           
 “Which is?”           
 “You’ll see.”            
As they entered the store, Hyde went for the first thing he saw: flowers. Specifically, half a dozen red roses. Then he went towards the freezer section, grabbing a pint of her favorite ice cream: mint chocolate chip.           
 “Ice cream?” Eric questioned.            
“I heard chicks really dig ice cream during their…problem time.”           
 “Yeah, Donna eats like four of those.”           
 “Damn,” Hyde sighed. “I’m, uh, I’m not very good at this. All I know is I want Y/n to feel better and I was kind of a jerk earlier.”           
 “Yeah, about that,” Eric piped up, browsing the ice cream flavors. “Why were reacting that way?” Eric’s eyes grew a fraction wider. “You were jealous, weren’t you?”           
 “What? No. I don’t get jealous.”            
“You so did!” Eric laughed. “You hated that Fez bought all that stuff for her because you felt like a bad boyfriend for not thinking about it earlier!”            
“You wanna get your ass kicked this early in the day?” Hyde threatened.             
Eric continued to laugh at him. “Just admit it. You totally did.”          
  Hyde rolled his eyes as he found his way to the soft drink section and grabbed a few bottles of ginger ale. “Okay, fine, maybe a little. But he shouldn’t have been hitting on her. She’s my chick. I should be the one getting all the stuff she needs.”           
 “And that’s what you’re doing now,” Eric stated, looking around. “Is that why you brought me here? To help you find stuff that she would like?”            
“No,” Hyde answered as they entered another aisle. He found a tin box of saltines and bent down to grab them. “I know what she likes; I don’t need you for that. I mainly brought you here so that we could sort crap out.” He picked up a box of assorted chocolates, something he knew she’d like.             
“You trying to tell me something?” Eric smirked, causing Hyde to chuckle. “Don’t you think you maybe going a little overboard?” He asked when he noticed Hyde putting everything in the basket.           
 “Maybe,” he answered honestly and led Eric away from the grocery section. “I just want her to know that I care.”            
“Well, she’ll definitely get that message,” the twin responded and noticed where Hyde was leading them. “Seriously? Condoms?”           
 “You don’t want me to knock her up, do you?”           
 “I’m still trying to accept you two and by you doing this in front of me is really bumming me out.”           
 Hyde laughed cruelly. “That’s kind of funny.” He quickly grabbed a pack and threw it in the cart. “Just don’t look at ‘em.”           
 Eric sighed and looked away. “What else are you giving her?”           
 “Besides a good time?”           
 Eric dramatically screeched and squirmed. “Please. Stop. Saying. That.”           
 Hyde burst into laughter, laughing at his friend’s discomfort. “That will never get old.”          
  “You’re a sadistic son of a bitch, you know that?”                                                        
                                                   —Time Skip—            
Y/n laid on the couch in the basement, wrapped up in a blanket, mindlessly watching tv. She was in and out of consciousness for the good part of the afternoon. Even though she was sick, she was still upset about her little dispute with Hyde.            
When did he become so jealous? Why would he think that of Fez? And worse of all, why didn’t he trust her enough? It hurt, but she was more curious as of why. She could feel her stomach beginning to churn again as it was ready to bring back up what she brought down earlier. 
Please, God, no. She quickly sat up, the room spinning for a minute, before she ran back to the bathroom and found herself with her head in the toilet. This had to be the forty-fifth time in the last couple of days of her spending time kneeling in front of the toilet, emptying the contents of her stomach into the light green basin.            
She held her hair back as tears pricked the corner of her eyes. It hurt so much and all she wanted in that moment was just to stop. What in the hell did she catch that made her feel this violently ill? After she was sure she was done, except from the dry heaving, she wiped her mouth and flushed the toilet. She sat against it for a little while longer, wishing her stomach would calm down enough for her to get a good sleep in. She couldn’t help but let a few tears escape. Her back was hurting, her body was aching, and her throat was burning. And on top of all that, she started cramping earlier in the day and the pain hadn’t subsided.             
“Y/n?” she heard from the basement living room.           
 She groaned in response and heard footsteps approach the door to the tiny bathroom. She twisted her face in pain as another surge of nausea reared its ugly head. Hyde appeared in the doorway just as he saw her turn her pale and tortured face into the basin once again. He could hear her whimpers through each retched gag.           
 “Awe, Doll,” he cooed and knelt down beside her, rubbing her back. He gathered her long hair in his hands and tried to look anywhere besides the toilet. He gently shushed her and reassured her that he was there now for her.          
Once she was finished, she fumbled for the handle, and pulled down. Hyde handed her some tissues to wipe her mouth. She gratefully accepted it and sat up fully, leaning against the wall.            
“What’re you doing here?” she croaked. “I thought you were pissed at me.”            
“Well, that’s why I’m here,” he responded and helped her off the floor. He wrapped a protective arm around her waist and guided her back to the couch where Eric also sat.            
“Are you here to fight? Because this isn’t how I envisioned our first fight.”             
He gently sat her on the couch, handing her the blanket and chuckled. “No, that’s not why I’m here.”            
“Then what?”           
 “Mainly to give you these,” he responded and handed her the roses.            
Y/n’s face softened as she weakly grasped the flowers in her fists. “What’s this for?”           
 “An apology,” Hyde responded and took a deep breath. “I know I was a jealous jerk earlier and…I’m sorry, okay?”            
She looked at him in the eye. “Why were you?”            
“I don’t know,” he responded and rubbed his neck. “I just…I just didn’t like seeing some other guy bring you things that I should be bringing.”            
She meekly set the flowers down on the coffee table in front of her. “Steven, do you not trust me?”            
“What? Of course I do.”            
“Then why did you act like Fez was going to hook up with me and I wouldn’t be able to say no?”            
“No, it’s not that. I…I—can you hang on a second?” he turned around to look at Eric. “Can we get a minute?” he asked impatiently.           
 Eric’s smug look never left his face. “Sure. Doll.”           
 Hyde stood abruptly, intimidatingly. Eric laughed and ran upstairs.            
Y/n knit her eyebrows together. “You guys are okay now or something?”            
“Yeah,” he cleared his throat and sat back down. “That’s another story.”            
Y/n nodded. “You were saying?”            
“Look, Y/n, when I saw Fez jumping in to immediately take care of you, I guess it felt like I…wasn’t doing my job as your boyfriend. And then when you said it did bother you, I knew I wasn’t. And…that maybe what everyone thinks is true.”            
“Which is what?” she pressed.           
 “C’mon, you’re really going to make me say it?”           
 “Yes,” she responded sternly.             
Hyde sighed and tore his eyes away from hers. “That…I’m not good enough…for you. There. Ya happy?” ��         
Y/n sighed, giving him a sad look. “No,” she responded gently and grabbed his hand. “No, I’m not happy. You can’t think that. You can’t let Fez get to you like that and it really didn’t bother me that you didn’t jump up to help me either. I’m a big girl. I can very well go get the stuff myself.”           
“So, you don’t mind?”           
 She smiled gently. “No. Yes, it’s nice if you did that stuff for me and trust me, I’d love it, but I’m not going to make you do it for me. I want you to want to do it for me.”            
He smiled at her and kissed the side of her head. “I did get you some things though.” He leaned down and grabbed the white bag, laying out the contents on the table. “I got you some ginger ale and saltines to help you with the nausea and then when it passes, I got you some chocolates and ice cream to satisfy your cravings.”           
 The look of sweets made her stomach churn, but she smiled through it and leaned her head on his shoulder. “Thank you, baby.”            
“You’re welcome,” he said quietly and kissed her head once more. He noticed that she was shivering and gently stood. “I’ll be right back.” He high tailed it to his room and brought back a sweater. “Here.”            
She grabbed it gratefully and threw it over her head, inhaling his scent: musk and woodsy. He settled on the couch next to her as she cuddled his side. He grabbed the blanket and threw it over both of them.           
“So, how was your day?” he asked her.            
“Fantastic,” she responded. “I spent the day throwing up my body weight and writhing in pain.”           
 “Sounds like a blast,” he chucked.           
“Oh, yeah, it was like a party in the toilet,” Y/n responded and chuckled when Hyde made a face. “How was yours?”           
 “Well, you know, it was fine,” he responded.             
“You and Eric work things out?”            
“Yeah. He’s still not happy about it, but he seems to—or trying to at least—accept it. I made him see the bigger picture here.”           
 “Which is?”            
“Us doing it.”           
 “Steven!”            
He threw his head back laughing. “I’m kidding.”           
 “You better be,” she said and reached over, grabbing the ginger ale. She laid back into his side and took a sip. She hummed and set it in her lap.            “Thank you, Steven. This is probably the best thing anyone has ever done for me.”            
He smiled at her gently. “Anything for you, doll.”           
 “Awe that’s so cute,” Eric called from the staircase. “It makes me want to vomit.”            
Y/n scowled at him. “What do you want?”            
“Well, I wanted to talk to you,” he said and sat down in the opposite chair.            
“You want to yell at me again?”           
 “No,” he responded and looked at the ground. “I’m sorry for the way I reacted. I know I was an ass and I should’ve handled it better, but c’mon, my best friend and my sister, hooking up. I never thought that this would happen and to say I was shocked is an understatement.”           
 “I know,” she responded. “But you still said some pretty hurtful things, Eric, and you can’t take that back.”            
“I know and I wish I could. You’re my sister, the best one at that, and Hyde, you’re like a brother to me and I just…it hurt, okay? I can understand not wanting to tell anyone else, but to hide it from me? I felt like you couldn’t trust me.”            
Y/n cast her eyes down, feeling guilt. “I’m so sorry, Eric. The last thing I wanted to do was hurt you. Lying to you wasn’t easy for me.”
“Then why did you do it?”
 “How would you take it if we just straight up told you?”            “
Yeah, Forman, what would you have said if I straight up said, ‘I’m nailing your sister.’ I bet you still wouldn’t have taken that lightly.”           
 Eric shuttered at the thought. “Yeah, definitely wouldn’t have. But it still wouldn’t have been as bad as me catching you.”            
Y/n looked at her twin for a moment before letting out a groan. “Dammit, I hate it when you’re right.”           
 “Yeah, and it’s not like I’m not going to kill you or anything.”           
 “Well, to be fair you did try to disown us,” Hyde defended.            
“Okay, yeah, but I just didn’t want to look at you guys at the moment,” Eric said.           
 “But kicking us out of the group and the house was the logical answer?” Y/n squinted at him.            
“Yeah, not my finest moment,” he agreed and sat down next to Y/n, causing her to shift over. “I’m really sorry, Y/n. I hope you can forgive me.”            
Y/n looked at her brother, eyes getting all misty. “Only if you can forgive me.”            
Eric smiled at her. “C’mere little sister.” He brought her in and hugged her tight. 
Y/n reciprocated by wrapping her arms tightly. “I’m only two minutes younger.” 
“Still,” he chuckled. “Besides, if I don’t forgive you, then I won’t have a sister anymore.”           
 “We have Laurie,” Y/n responded, pulling away.           
 “Do you really want her close?”            
Y/n paused, pretending to think it over. “No, I really don’t.”           
 Eric chuckled. “Look, Y/n. I know I was a jerk, but you’re not only my sister, you’re my best friend and I don’t want anything to come between us.”            
Y/n nodded, smiling and wiped at her eyes. “Me too.”           
 “I’m still not entirely happy about you two and to be honest, I’m not sure if I ever will be, but I want you two to be happy and if it’s you two that make each other happy, then so be it. I just don’t want to see any of it.”            
“You got it,” Y/n responded, feeling lighter about the situation.           
 “I’m going to give you the same speech I gave Hyde,” Eric continued as Y/n’s eyebrows knitted together. “I’d never thought I’d have to say this to my sister about my best friend, but don’t hurt him. I may not be able to kick his ass, but I can for sure…try to kick yours.” As he was saying it, he knew it wasn’t true. Even if it was, he wasn’t going to do it anyway.         
Y/n cracked a wide smile, a smile that she hadn’t been able to muster for the last couple of days, and nodded. “Okay, bro. That sounds fair.”            
He turned to Hyde. “Just so you know, if you get her pregnant, I will have to find a new and interesting way to kick your ass.”           
 “Trust me, man, that ain’t gonna happen,” Hyde responded.            
“Yeah, we’re careful,” Y/n responded, adjusting herself to be laying against Hyde. Her stomach and back were starting hurt again and she was desperate to find some relief. Hyde threw an arm over her shoulders, bringing her closer. “Besides, Dad would literally stick his foot in both of our asses.”            
“And somehow, he’d still find a way to blame me,” Eric said.           
 “Hey, Y/n baby,” Fez called out, entering the basement. “How’re you feeling? You get my gifts?”           
 “Hi Fez,” Y/n greeted with a tiny smile. “I did, thank you. It was very nice of you, but I’m not feeling too much better.”            
“Sorry to hear that,” he responded.             
Y/n shrugged and snuggled deeper into Hyde’s side. “What’re you doing here anyway?”            
“Just wanted to come by and see how you were feeling,” he responded.            
 “No, you didn’t,” Hyde spit. “You came here to see if she was alone, didn’t you?”           
 Fez made a face at him. “What’re you talking about? No, I’m not!”            
“Yes you are!” he said and stood up. “Now, knock it off before I make you the first person to touch his chin to ass!”           
 Fez looked offended, placing his hand on his chest. “Have you been spying on me?!”           
 “Steven, honey, it’s not that big of deal,” Y/n said, trying to calm down the situation.           
 “Yeah, honey, listen to your lady,” Fez said, starting to get nervous.            
 “No, Y/n, he needs to understand respect,” he replied.           
 “I’m sure he gets it now,” Y/n said, signaling Fez to run now.            
“No, he doesn’t,” he responded. “If he—”            
He was cut off by the slamming of the door as Fez ran outside, away from him.           
 “He’s not getting away that easily,” Hyde commented before darting to the door.           
 “Hyde, no!” Y/n called after him. She jumped up from her seat, despite her stomach and head screaming at her.            
 Hyde ran out the door, causing it to slam against the wall. Y/n followed him out the door, ignoring the sudden faint feeling she had.            
“Steven, stop!” she called again, her voice weakened and wavering. She could see Hyde quickly gaining speed on Fez.            
 Fez screamed as Hyde tackled him to the ground on the Forman’s front lawn. Eric was behind Y/n in a flash, watching the scene in front of him unfold. Hyde struggling to get Fez in a choke hold, Fez fighting to get out of his grip, and Y/n yelling at him to stop.            
 “Steven, enough!” Y/n shrieked weakly, her voice quieting as the world started to spin, the edges of her vision darkening. “Steven, please…” 
Her vision darkened as she hit the ground, making the two boys suddenly stop to jerk their attention towards her. Eric dropped to the ground next to her.
“Y/n!” Steven shouted, letting Fez go and running over to her. “Y/n!”
 And that was the last thing she heard before she was swallowed by darkness.

Unusual Divination Methods
A long ass list of methods of divination, just in case you’re curious ~~~~~~
Tumblr media
Divination is the method of discerning answers beyond a direct interaction. It can be used for foreseeing future outcomes or problems, but that isn’t inherent. It can also be used to commune with entities like deities or spirits, or even for delving deeper into the self (like shadow work).
There are many forms of divination. So many. There are even many forms of what would be considered “unusual” beyond the more commonly practices like cartomancy, runes, or stichomancy. Today I shall be focusing on ones I’m familiar with so I can better elaborate and answer questions.
The methods I will be exploring today:

Aleuromancy: divination using flour (or a flour substitute!)

Catoptromancy: a form of scrying using a mirror (my method uses a cast iron pan actually!)

Osteomancy: divination using bones
~~~~~~
Aleuromancy
A form of divination using flour that’s mentioned in some Mesopotamian cunefiorms, as well as being practiced in Greece and Rome. There are a couple ways this can be done. Firstly is when you pour out the dry flour and look at the way it falls into a bowl or on a plate or surface. Much like tea leaf reading (tasseography), you seek out shapes in the flour and interpret based on that. Another variation is doing the same but after you’ve mixed the flour with the liquids you’re baking with and kneaded it/mixed it and then taken it away to be baked. You examine the remaining streaks of wet dough on your surfaces for shapes and patterns.
The third method is to actually put slips of paper into the items you’re baking to be taken at random and broken open to answers questions after they’re cooked (akin to fortune cookies). This can be a tricky process depending on what sort of paper or ink you’ve used (speaking from experience :-X). The historical Greek version of this used excerpts of famous philosophy and mixed the balls of doughs nine times (a significant number in Ancient Greece)
It can take a lot of patience to try and find shapes and patterns in flour and admittedly it’s much easier with tea leaves. No wonder that became the standard. Don’t get disheartened if it isn’t something you have success with. You might have more fun and results experimenting with the baking slips of paper into dough methods. Great for ritual cookies!
The kind of divining using this method is very simple, more “omen-like” than detailed q&as like in Tarot or runes. Expect to see simple images that may give insight to something coming your way (a boat or bird showing a trip) or warn of a specific type of trouble that may be on the horizon (a money sign showing finances) rather than getting a formulated question clearly answered. However, you can dabble in that methodology when using the slips of paper instead. That way is more akin to stichomancy where you get a general idea or snapshot of the emotion or proverb-like metaphor to your question.
The type of flour can be tailored to help “fine tune” the reading as well- much like a certain flavor or tea or a certain deck of cards. Keep in mind that all types of grains/flours have a baseline association with prosperity and material gain/finances so this method of divination is especially good for those type of questions!


Flour Correspondences:

Acorn: An uncommon one in stores of course, but has deep wildcrafting results if you have the time and patience to grind some yourself. Associated with protection, health, money, healing, potency, fertility, luck, wealth, wisdom, and personal power.

Almond: creativity, luck, wisdom, spiritual understanding, nostalgia
Buckwheat: Money, protection, dreams and sleep

Flaxseed: health, finances, prosperity, beauty, psychic powers
Oat: family, home, hearth, money
Potato: protection, banishing, soothing/healing

Rice: prosperity, career/job, travel, romantic relationships/sex
Wheat: general prosperity, rebirth/renewal, solar energy
~~~~~~
Catoptromancy
From the Greek word katoptron, meaning mirror, this is a form of scrying that specifically uses a mirror rather than flame, water, or crystal ball. However, my version is a bit of a kitchen witch twist on it. We’ll get to that in a moment!

 The Wikipedia article on it refers to a Greek temple that used this method but it was also practiced in many other countries in history. There’s references to the “true seeing” of Hathor/Het-Hert/ḥwt-ḥr mirrors as well, despite them being mainly for practical purposes. The divination is practiced most commonly by placing a mirror near water, outside in moonlight, or near a candle flame. Then the reader looks into the mirror and interprets the images seen. They can be direct appearance-based (how you look) or seeing other images. The mirror can be a standard one, a painted one, or one made of a more opaque substance like obsidian or metal.
I will say personally, I practice catoptromancy in an “inner eye” scrying way rather than a pattern/tasseography way. That means that I am the conduit and the mirror/surface is to help me get into a trance state and what I “see” will be from my mind’s eye or may likely be added to what little I see on the surface through intuition and that sixth sense. But either method is absolutely fine.
I also don’t use a mirror. I use a well loved, well seasoned cast iron skillet for my catoptromancy, with a lighted candle usually. The glossy surface is mostly black iron but is just mirrored enough from being soaked in fat over the past decades of seasoning that it performs quite well for scrying. And the sentimental value helps it’s power. You may want to select an object in a similar fashion. You can choose an important mirror (the size doesn’t matter) or pick something that is mirror-like. The reflective ability is all that matters.
Get settled down in a comfortable spot without too much light. Get your one light source ready; a candle, the moon, a small table lamp or booklight even. You’ll want to be grounded, centered, and calm and then let yourself “zone out” in order to get into the mindset for scrying. Then examine your own reflection for certain aspects that stand out or look past yourself (or angle the mirror to not be looking right at you) to see other shapes or patterns that you expand upon with your trance state. Keeping a journal for this method is especially important. There’s an emotional and internal reflection aspect that can be helpful to refer back to and examine how things went in your life after certain sessions. It can also pair well with dream magic. What you were seeking might manifest after the trance mirror session in your dreams. This method of divination is especially good for shadow work as well.
~~~~~~
Osteomancy
Bones, bones bones! Throwing the bones! Examining the bones! Reading the bones! This is a divination method that obviously uses bones in order to determine associations and messages. It was prevalent in so many cultures throughout ancient and more recent history that it’s hard to pin down a single source. However, there are definitely methods that have particular cultural ties and those should be respected when it comes to closed ones. 

Much like runes or staves, the most common method counts upon both the appearance of the bones themselves as well as their placement in a “casting” (when you gently toss them onto a flat surface). Casting sets also frequently include items that aren’t just bones like small stones, coins, shells, pieces of jewelry, etc.
You can carve, mark, paint or stain the bones in ways that have personal associations to you to help in reading them. You can obtain these bones in any ethical way you are comfortable with. I don’t believe they have to be remains you have processed yourself; though that can add a different spiritual component. You should be considerate in collecting your set though. There is no set number of objects to have (even a single piece can answer yes/no questions) but I don’t recommend starting out of the gate with a pile. You should get comfortable with each piece and determine its associations before moving on to a new one.
Unlike Tarot, they don’t come with set meanings. Though there are sometimes obvious ones: a coin for finances, a seedpod or nut for fertility/prosperity, a sharp tooth for protection, etc. Think about what creature the bone is from, what part of the body, what shape it has when helping determine your personal associations. Treat it like a correspondence for herbs or crystals and that way you can have a more organic “sliding scale” type meaning for when you cast rather than a rigidly detailed one like with Tarot. For example: a meaning like “luck” or “prosperity” is better than “success in work”. It’s also common to have objects touch and then their meanings are joined. In the previous example you could get promotion/raise at work from having a work piece crossing with a prosperity or luck piece.
It is also up to you on what level of ritualized dedication and/or care you would like to give your set. Many people like to do a special dedication ritual to almost “welcome” the item to its new job as a divination tool (my own is what I call “Massaging the Bones”). You can also regularly cleanse and “feed” the casting set (energy that is- not literal food, though you could give it energy from something you’ve cooked in a non-literal way!). I do recommend a special bag or box to keep everything in as well as a soft thicker cloth to cast on. Just so the items don’t get damaged. Be careful in your casting. Practice a lot to know your strength level to throw while still keeping the objects safe. There may be a couple pieces (like baculums or thinner bird bones) that you need to wrap in a square of cloth before storing with the rest of your set for extra protection. This is especially true if you plan to take your set anywhere where it’ll be traveling in a bag or purse.
You can have a ritual circle of string or another material (embroidery hoop!) you lay out to help organize your cast if you like too. This is usually treated one of two ways. Like the face of a clock and items “closer” to certain times are more immediate and further away items around the imaginary numerals are more in the future. Or it’s concentric and the closer to the center of the circle are more important/relevant and then less relevant or immediate as you get closer to the edge. Those that fall outside the circle aren’t relevant to the reading.
This is a divination method you need an large amount of patience for as it is basically creating a tool yourself from scratch, even if you buy the supplies from elsewhere. The framework is laid by you. And just like someone designing a Tarot deck from scratch; be gentle with yourself and allow yourself the room to practice, change, grow, have fallow periods, return, get bored, become fanatic, etc. It’s a process sort of divination that grows like a living thing. This makes it a bittersweet one- rewarding and frustrating but mostly immensely satisfying.
~~~~~~
Divination is something that can be tailored to your desires, needs, and supplies. It can be made personal. You can create a whole new type if you like! Use what inspires you, what works for you. Use the marks on toast, the recommendations of Netflix, steam in a bathroom mirror after a shower. The world is your oyster!

"Go go go go!" Osamu shouted as gunfire rained down on the pair, their backs to a flaming building.
It was a classic case of a mission gone awry, the two's incessant bickering alerting half the building of their presence during their "quiet" escape.
"It's your fault we're doing this in the first place!  No we're gonna be here for so much longer," Chuuya snapped, his powerful legs quickly closing the distance between him and a random car parked on the curb.
Thoughtlessly, he smashed open the window while Osamu looped around the car, smashing the opposite window.  The two quickly pulled the car doors open from the inside, slipping in and shutting the doors with a slam.  Chuuya reached in front of him to begin the hot wiring process.
"Wrong side!" Osamu sang, his hands playing with the wires under the wheel.
"Hey!  Let me drive you bastard!"
"No can do, we're out of time. Besides it's not like you could reach the pedals anyway," Osamu chuckled, slamming his foot on the gas as their pursuers hopped onto moterbikes.
Chuuya glared at Osamu's irritatingly smug face, ignoring the ear splitting shatter of bullets against the back window.
"You suck ass at driving!  If those guys don't kill us, you will!" Chuuya shouted just before he was thrown against the car due to a sharp spin of the wheel.
"Yea well you drive like a grandma!  Remember when you stopped at a stop sign while we were being chased?"
"There was a cat in the middle of the road!  We're mafia, not heartless!  I mean at least I can turn without the car going on two wheels."
"How is that a good thing?  Where's the fun in having all wheels on the ground?" Osamu punctuated his point by drifting down an allyway, slowing down their followers just a little, "okay now shoot at them, it's a narrow road even you can't miss."
"The hell's that supposed to mean?" Chuuya pulled a handful of bullets out of his pocket, leaning out the passenger window and throwing them behind the car.
Rubber squealed as bullets punctered the tires of the bikes, sending their drivers careening into one another.  Chuuya silently congratulated himself.
"Don't get too happy, we're still far from headquarters," Osamu nudged at Chuuya with his free hand, the car weaving down the empty road.
"If we even make it that far in this coffin on wheels," Chuuya gritted, his arms braced on the center console and door respectively.
"Awh, have a little more faith in me chibikko," Osamu pouted, the car flying over a speed bump, sending the riders and any object not nailed down flying.
A sudden bubble of air forced it's way out of Chuuya, alerting him of the nausea which had been lingering in his gut since entering this death trap.  He clapped a hand over his mouth, shocked at the sudden intense feeling.
"Holy shit," he hiccuped, "Your piss-poor driving actually made me fucking carsick."
"That sounds like a you problem," Osamu retorted, turning away from the road to smirk at his passenger.
"It's gonna be an us problem when I puke on your smug ass."
Osamu's smile dropped.
"You wouldn't dare."
Chuuya fake gagged at the driver, eliciting a scream out of the latter.  The car swerved precariously as Osamu took his hands off the wheel in favor of pushing Chuuya away.
"Dude!  Keep your hands on the fucking wheel," Chuuya cried, using his hand to supress a gag.
"Keep your stomach in your fucking stomach!"
Seething, Chuuya turned away, instead trying to distract himself with the horizon.
"Just, drive a little softer... please," he requested, voice faint and genuine, completely unlike his usual tone.
Ignoring him, Osamu pressed down on the pedal faster- opting to arrive at the center of the city before Chuuya had a chance to get sick.  Chuuya's mouth was downturned, his arms hugging his midsection.
His plan worked, as they usually do, and the car came to a squealing stop outside the main building.  A man in a suit was waiting for them.  Stepping out of the car, Osamu rested his head on the car roof to prompt the member.
"Boss would like to speak with you," he informed, deadpan.
Osamu cursed under his breath, already knowing what the meeting would be adressing.  Putting on a smile, he drummed the top of the car, avoiding where bullets had sharpened the car.
"Well you heard him!  We should go, it's bad to keep the boss waiting."
Chuuya groaned, the world still spinning around him as Osamu pulled him onto his feet and towards the familiar buidling.  The former knew better than to protest, having experienced Ougai's silent rage towards whoever leaves the boss expectant.  That feeling of shame was far worse than the nausea fiercely gripping his stomach.
The elevator ride was a living hell, Chuuya's stomach remaining on the first floor as the rest of his body travelled up.  Seeing the city grow smaller through the glass walls was vertigo inducing, a feeling Chuuya had never felt even when meters in the air using his ability.  Maybe it was due to the lack on control.  When using his ability or driving, Chuuya never experienced a problem akin to this.  Closing his eyes didn't help, the neverending movement only playing against his eyelids like a shitty projector.
After a truly painfully long time, the elevator stopped with a ding, it's doors opening slowly.  Trying to present himself as best as possible, Chuuya crossed the threshold and into the boss' office with a straight back and one step ahead of Osamu.
His jaw was clenched at this point, respect and fear for the boss being the only thing holding his lunch in place.  What would happen when that wore off?  When the nausea came to a breaking point which loomed like a wave, large and close to break, what would Chuuya do then?
He didn't have long to ponder this, his body lurched forward before even being able to adress Ougai.  Appauled with his bodys betrayal, Chuuya apologized.  Osamu side eyed him, before speaking with Ougai.
"You called us?" Osamu prompted.
"I did.  What happened today?"
"Someone," Osamu nodded towards Chuuya who was struggling to hold himself upright, "got too offended by a joke and started yelling."
"Oh, as if it's," he paused to stifle a burp, "my fault!"
"And how did that happen?" Ougai motioned towards Chuuya.
"This bastard never learned how to drive!" A retch tailed his statement, much to Chuuya's horror.
Osamu stepped away silently and Chuuya fell to his knees, hands in fists against the floor.
"And he never learned how to handle a couple bumps and turns!"
"Shut. Up," Chuuya demanded through his teeth, eyes closed with concentration.
The guards shifted uncomfortably across the room.
"Help him to the restroom," Ougai commanded, staring Osamu in the eye.
"What!" He all but yelled, "why me?  He can crawl there himself!"
"Osamu.  Now."
Scowling at Ougai, Osamu grimaced down at Chuuya before offering his hand.
"Is this," Chuuya paused to swallow down his nausea, "our punishment?"
"Only if you look at it that way," Ougai responded as Chuuya reluctantly look Osamu's hand.
Chuuya was able to hold his composure- or what shreds were left of his composure- until the pair made it into the hallway.
"If you puke on me I will put dried shit in all of your cigarettes," Osamu threatened through clenched teeth.
"Don't tempt me," Chuuya retorted through similarly clenched teeth.  It's not that he wanted to get sick on his "partner" but the odds really weren't in his favor right now.  Plus, it's not like Osamu didn't deserve it.
As soon as the bathrooms came into view, Chuuya peeled himself out of Osamu's hold and stumbled over to one of the sinks.  Planting his hands firmly on the basin, he allowed his upped back to arch with a heave.
"You're disgusting," Osamu stated plainly from the entryway.
"Like you're," he gagged openly, "one to talk."
"At least I'm not retching like a cat choking on a hairball!"
"At least my hair doesn't look like an overgrown sewer rat wearing dollar hair extentions!"
"Oh hoh hoh, YOU'RE one to talk about hair."
"The hell is that supposed to me-"
His head was still facing towards Osamu when a final gag brought up a mouthful of sick.
Both their eyes went wide as they registered what had just took place.  Osamu was mortified, looking at the splatters of illness on his finely polished shoes.
"Awh fuck!  Go back over the sink!" Osamu jumped into the hair.
"Shut u-" a burp over took his threat, leaving his attempt at enounciation sounding more like a frog.
Another, far heavier wave came out, splashing messily into the sink basin.  His fingers were dirtied with the foul substance, it's smell permeating the small room.
"This is your fucking fault you overrated, bland ass, one man Romeo and Juliet remake.
"You're buying me new shoes."
"Fat chance, JD"

Prompt: Caroline and klaus as rival lawyers
Tumblr media
Thanks anon, this is inspired! Hope you like it : )
Bad Reputation
California Superior Court, Beverly Hills CA - Tuesday, 11 July
“Objection, Your Honor! Opposing Counsel is badgering the witness.”
“Since when did asking a perfectly normal question constitute badgering?” She could feel his blue eyes boring into her, almost like he was trying to remember her naked.
Ass.
“Overruled, Ms Forbes,” the judge replied, not before casting an unimpressed glance in the defense attorney’s direction. “But if I was you, I’d stop talking back, Mr Mikaelson.”
“Apologies, Your Honor,” he said, sending her his signature smirk. “It won’t happen again.”
Ass.
Caroline Forbes thrived on competition which was why she was known as one of the best defamation lawyers in California. Celebrities far and wide flocked to Caroline for her services and winning track record.
Unfortunately, she could see her unblemished run slipping away and it was all thanks to him.
LA Times Offices, El Segundo, CA - Friday 9 April (3 months earlier)
Caroline consulted her appearance in the reflection of the elevator, straightening her black, suit jacket as the floor numbers ascended.  
The opposing counsel in her current case had requested a pre-trial meeting. As much as she loved the adversarial thrill of the courtroom, she wasn’t going to complain if the Los Angeles Times decided to write a big, fat cheque to her client.
Skylar Lopez was a well known Hollywood actress who’d suffered significant financial loss after the Los Angeles Times ran an article asserting she was unprofessional and difficult on set. Caroline had her fair share of questionable clients but she knew Skylar had been unfairly treated.
Caroline had dealt with the Times on a number of occasions and was confident she’d walk out of the meeting triumphant.
Until the tables were turned.    
Walking towards the boardroom, Caroline was already imagining what would transpire. They’d offer a settlement that was too low but would ultimately meet her client’s demand. 
She was just that good. However, upon entering the room, everything changed when she saw him.
His back was turned but, after all these years, she couldn’t mistake those broad shoulders even housed in a grey, suit jacket. Those dark, blonde curls were still slightly unruly like she remembered and she could still recall just how good it felt combing her fingers through them.
Caroline liked to be in control and suddenly she felt like she was in freefall. He turned to face her, almost like he could sense her anxiety.
Between the slight stubble and crimson lips, Caroline knew she was in trouble. The guy could also wear a suit and it should have been illegal given how well it moulded to his toned physique.
“Hello, love.” It was a greeting she knew all too well and immediately transported her back in time to college.
“What are you doing here?” Caroline hoped it didn’t sound as shaky as it felt.
“Is this how you greet all your opposing counsels?” With his left eyebrow cocked, Caroline was trying to pretend it didn’t look sexy.  
“You are not my opposing counsel.”
“Well, that’s where you’re wrong,” he replied, sliding a manila folder towards her. “I’m acting for the defense.”
“But how? I thought you were in DC acting for all those questionable politicians.” It came out before she could stop it.
Yes, maybe she’d followed him over the years since law school graduation but this wasn’t the way she saw their reunion going.
“Sounds like someone has been stalking me.”
“You wish,” she growled, placing her briefcase on the table and consulting the folder he’d provided. “And, as a lawyer, I’m well aware of the fact that stalking is an illegal offence in all fifty states.” She couldn’t miss the way his left dimple made an unwelcome appearance at that point.
“Fine. I guess you could say I felt like a change and, between you and me, those DC winters are a real killer without someone to keep you warm.”
Ass. 
“Why don’t I believe you, Mikaelson?”
“I suppose that’s your problem, not mine, Forbes.” Their gazes lingered, Caroline attempting to look away but failing miserably.
Ass.
“My client is willing to offer a generous settlement,” he said, breaking their trance and handing her another piece of paper, his hand grazing hers teasingly in the process.
“I’ll bet,” she shot back, finally regaining her composure. She looked at the page and was immediately insulted by the supposedly ‘generous’ offer. “This is a joke, right?”
“Do I look like I’m laughing?”
“This is insulting and you can pass that onto your client,” she offered. “Unless you’d like to meet my client’s demands here and now and save us all some time and money.”
“That’s the final offer, take it or leave it,” he uttered, his jaw clenched. Caroline knew enough of Klaus to realise he meant it.  
“Right, so, if we’re finished here, I suppose I’ll see you at trial?”  
“Yes you will,” he promised. “You know during all those mock trials at Harvard, I always hoped that we’d meet up again and settle this for good.”
Caroline stilled, knowing just how those mock trials ended after dark. In her dorm room between the sheets, all the pent up energy leading to one hell of a crescendo.
“Unlike those mock trials when I was young and naive, I’m not going to sleep with you.”
“That’s a real shame, love.”
Ass.
“See you in court.” She left, albeit on shaky legs, before the creeping blush threatened to reveal itself and her true feelings.
She loved the idiot but she didn’t want him to know that. Ever.
Honor Bar, Beverly Hills CA - Monday 27 July (2 weeks later)
Turns out Caroline’s fears were premature and unfounded.
She won the case, like many before it, and Skylar received full damages from the Los Angeles Times for defamation.  
Instead of gloating over her unexpected win, she was currently drowning her sorrows in vodka. Or maybe it was her coping mechanism to block out the fun they could be having in a bed further uptown.
“I was a little upset you didn’t invite me to the party.” She turned, knowing that familiar voice all too well.
“Do you have a tracking device on me or something?”
“Your personal assistant thought I should know your whereabouts to provide the final paperwork,” he said, gesturing to the barwoman for a drink. Caroline couldn’t miss the flutter of her eyelashes knowing the effect he had on women.
She hated that she felt it too.
“Of course she did,” she growled, knowing he’d sweet talked Lexi too. “You’re such an ass.” Caroline was proud of the fact she finally verbalised it after all these months of control.
“Says the defamation warrior,” he whistled, taking a sip of his drink. He’d shed his suit since their last meeting and she couldn’t miss just how good he looked in that navy henley and jeans. It was almost like they’d gone back in time to Boston.
“It’s true and, quite frankly, you deserved it.”
“Last time I checked you left me, sweetheart.”  
“We were both heading in different directions after graduation and excuse me if your reputation didn’t fill me with much confidence.”
“Wow,” he murmured, his gaze downcast. “I’ve followed your career too and what you’ve done is nothing short of phenomenal, not that I was expecting any less given your intelligence, dogged determination and ambition. But it seems as if you’ve not learned the biggest lesson.”
“And what exactly is that?”
“Not to judge a book by its cover,” he responded sincerely, his eyes now aligned with hers. “I love you, always have, but it seemed like what we had didn’t mean enough for you to try.”
“Well then, you’re mistaken,” Caroline replied gruffly, turning to face him. “I haven’t stopped thinking about you since college.”
“You better hope I don’t report you to the police for all of that stalking, love.”
“Just shut up and kiss me, Mikaelson,” she insisted, grabbing handfuls of his shirt and pulling him closer. 
His lips felt familiar, like nothing had changed and Caroline didn’t mind that one bit. He promised to beat her in court next time and she relished in the impending challenge.
It was what they did after all.

Time to get a bit personal...
I have never really drawn a realistic self portrait before. I picked a recent selfie I actually liked, and tried to draw as objectively as I could. This is the result. As an experience, it was really interesting, and I would do it again. Maybe even a full body one.
I have struggled with self esteem all my life, along with self image problems. I have also, for the majority of my life, been fat. And I mean really fat, not just a bit chubby. I am fat currently, but it’s a bit different these days, because I don’t have a violent self hate attack every time I see myself in the mirror.
I’ve been severely bullied for my weight almost all throughout my school years. I have had almost every eating disorder you can imagine, and I’ve been hospitalised for them more than once. Not always because of low weight, but mostly because of the various disordered behaviours. I am still sometimes funny about food, but mostly I have recovered to what passes for normal for me. So, I’m fine now. But that’s the history.
I am going to be 40 this July, and I’m OK with being fat for it. I don’t like the way I look, but I’ve learned that how I look doesn’t matter as much as I thought in the past. There are things that matter a lot more... things like what my fat body is capable of. It’s also a stronger body than it was during my eating disorder struggles. Stronger and much healthier. It’s worth a lot more to me than looking pretty.
I wanted to write this to explain why I’m suddenly drawing myself. Maybe someone younger who struggles right now will see this and get some hope from it. Things get better, slowly but steadily.
Anyway... Here’s me. Reblogs are completely fine, even though someone’s selfie may not be a thing you want on your blog 😄 I completely understand that. Thank you for reading anyway 💗
I will tag my usual list... just in case someone is interested in seeing this.
