late night listener rambles

Angel loves the way David's hands feel. during casual or intimate times, feeling David's hands clasping their own, rubbing their back, gently holding Angel's body close to his own. David's hands make Angel feel safe and secure, and they love playing with them, complimenting their features and grinning at David's slight blush

Babe loves rambling with Asher. they love listening to Asher just talk about whatever interests him, even if they can't quite follow what the topic is about. theyll make little mental notes to look up a certain tv show or game later on in the day, so that they can have a better understanding. they love how attentive Asher is when Babe is the one rambling, taking every opportunity to explain the details in case Asher gets lost

Sweetheart loves cuddling with Milo. morning cuddles, just-got-off-of-work cuddles, post intimate time cuddles, they love them all. they love feeling Milo's skin touch their own, love rubbing and tracing small patterns on his skin. sleepy-time cuddles are their favorite, burying their face in Milo's neck and just feeling everything

Darlin' loves sleeping with Sam. not sex sleeping, literal sleep. they love knowing that they can show such a vulnerable side of themself to their mate, love that they can curl up next to him and drift off without a care in the world. sleep comes easier to Darlin' if it's sleep with Sam

Lovely loves Vincent's kisses. they love it when Vincent comes up behind them, wraps his arms around their waist and kisses their neck, reminiscent of before Lovely's turning. they love it when Vincent gets a bout of cuteness aggression and peppers their face in kisses, loves it when he gently kisses their scars when they feel like they're not good enough. they love kissing Vincent in return, feeling that slight spark of surprise and delight through their eternal bond

Treasure loves being held by Porter. when people held them in the past, it was always predatory, possessive; a clawed hand staking its claim on their hips, suffocating them. being held by Porter is different. it's softer, gentler, and always always easy to break, in the event that they want to step away (not that they ever would). they love being held in his arms, their head against his chest, listening to his subtle heartbeat. they love how gentle he is with them, and how warm he feels despite being a vampire

[anexistingexistence]

I feel like Darlin' is a very animalistic person. And I don't just mean this as "they're very in touch with their wolf" - which they are, don't get me wrong - but they also fully have a wild animal brain in their skull. Like when they go running while shifted, they don't shift like how the Shaw Security wolves were taught, instead, they choose to rip their clothes or just straight up take them off before shifting. In addition to this, they also wear very few to no clothes around the house because they find them restrictive like how a dog or cat might yell at you for putting them in a sweater. Darlin's eating habits are also what a lot of people would call atrocious because they always eat like they're starving and sometimes they almost ignore the cutlery next to their plate. They also prefer cooking and buying their food themselves rather than having someone else do those things for them because they like feeling more connected to their food - that and their hasty as well as (literal) hands-on approach to eating comes from the same feeling a wolf might have after killing its prey and serving it to its pack.

All that is to say that Darlin' also always touches people. They don't like being touched for personal reasons, but they always have to touch the people who are dear to them; They have their hand on Sam's thigh or knees, a hand on Asher's shoulder, they lean against David's side, they lean on Milo's head, they hold Angel's hand, they sit back to back with Baabe, and their knee and leg are always touching Sweetheart's when they sit next to each other. And with Sam, it's not exactly limited to just keeping a relatively tight grip on his thigh, but they've come to know that kissing and licking and nosing at their mate's neck, face, and ears isn't something that is appropriate to do in public or in front of pack. But sometimes they still lean against him and take a deep breath with their head on his shoulder and on his neck they smell their own scent and that dumb, ravenous, prideful, and possessive animal brain goes mine and mate and smells like me all mine he's marked because he's mine mine mine and nobody will touch him my mate I want to touch I want to feel and he smells like me and I want more I want him to need a shower by the time I'm done with him my mate my darling mine mine mine

[potatoqueenpal]

Yall I'm SO SORRY for dipping on you I have no ideas and I'm still fighting to get my avior fic back.

Have filler till I think of more angst

I present to you: Shaw Pack and Mates: Incorrect quotes

Sam, filling out legal paperwork: Were you guys born AMAB or AFAB?

Sweetheart : Bold of you to assume I was born at all.

Baabe: I personally was created in a lab.

Angel: I just straight up spawned.

Sam: We call that a traumatic experience.

Sam, turning to Baabe: Not a "bruh moment".

Sam, turning to Angel: Not "sadge".

Sam, turning to Sweetheart : And DEFINITELY not an "oof LMAO".

Asher: Knock, knock.

Baabe: Who's there?

Asher: Boo!

Baabe: Boo who?

Asher: Why are you crying?

Baabe: I'm not crying.

Asher: Hello notcrying, I'm Asher.

Milo: Angel, you look deep in thought. What’s wrong?

Angel: Did you know you can look at any object and know what it’s like to lick it? Even if you’ve never touched it before?

Milo: I’m never asking you anything ever again.

David: There's nothing worse than people using big words they don't understand.

Milo: I photosynthesize with this.

Sweetheart: I’m this close to falling in love with Milo.

Asher: Your fingertips are touching.

Sweetheart: Exactly.

Asher, spraying a melted cutting board with a tiny water gun: We gotta cool this bitch down. Cool it down.

Sweetheart : I actually just put the cutting board in the oven...

Baabe, visibly confused: Okay, so they decided to put the cutting board in the oven?

Asher, spraying Sweetheart : You FUCKING DUMBASS!

Sweetheart : Dude, I forgot-

Asher: OH MY FUCKING GOD! We're trying to make Chicken Alfredo right now, and you fucking MELT the cutting board in the oven at 400 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT!?

Sam: *Watching in complete confusion while trying to process this whole situation.*

Asher: In your opinion, what is the height of stupidity?

David, turning to Darlin': How tall are you?

Angel: Sam said its my turn with the brain cell.

Asher: Square up.

Sam: And what do we say when someone refuses your offer?

Sweetheart : Suck it, boomer!

Sam: I don't know who "Boomer" is, but no.

Asher: *spits mouthful of blood onto floor* You’ve become far more powerful since we last crossed paths.

Dentist: Please stop, there’s literally a sink right next to you.

Baabe: I think my guardian angel drinks.

David: How did none of you hear what I just said?!

Milo: I've been zoned out for the past two and a half hours.

Asher: I got distracted halfway through.

Darlin': Ignoring you was a conscious decision.

Asher: Consider the fundraising over! Your hero has arrived!

Sam: Uhh… where did you get so much money from, Asher?

Asher: Well, you know, I’m pretty good at numbers. I just crunched them, I stretched them, I analyzed my accounts, I timed the market-

*police sirens start to wail in the background*

Sam: DID YOU ROB A BANK?!

Asher: Oh, come on, Sam, do you really think so little of me? *opens the bag as purple dye explodes on their face*

Sam:

Asher: …it was a credit union.

Angel: Tell them to eat shit, David.

David: Tell them yourself.

Angel: Eat shit, asshole. Fall of your horse.

Milo, gardening: Hey, can you bring me the hoe?

Darlin': Yeah, sure.

*A few minutes later*

Darlin': Here you go.

Milo:

Darlin':

Baabe: Why am I here?

Angel: Guess what I'm about to get!

David: On my nerves.

Sweetheart : That's a nice arguement, Milo Why don't you back it up with a source?

Milo: My source is that I made it the fuck up!

Sam: Aww, what's your cat's name?

Milo: Aggro.

Sam, yelling to Baabe: TRY AGGRO!

Baabe, on the computer: DIDN'T WORK!

Milo:

Sam: What's your favorite number?

Angel: I’m so jetlagged I can’t even regrender my chorf.

*Everyone stares at Angel*

Angel: I don’t even know what I was trying to say.

Angel: I've connected the two dots.

David: You didn't connect shit.

Angel: I've connected them.

And now, wholesome (amd flirty) ship incoreect quotes:

｡･ﾟﾟ･　　･ﾟﾟ･｡｡･ﾟﾟ･　　･ﾟﾟ･｡｡･ﾟﾟ･　　･ﾟﾟ･｡｡･

David : Do you want to explain the text you sent me last night?

Angel: It was autocorrect.

David : Autocorrect wrote "You're so hot. Please step on me."?

Angel: Yes.

Angel: You are the love of my life and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.

David : I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.

Angel: I said within reason, David . How about I murder that guy?

David : So murder is in reason but proper self care isn't?

Angel: Well, duh. What kind of question is that?

Angel: Hey, wanna take a shower with me?

David : I have a gun on that nightstand beside the bed. If I ever say no to that question, I want you to take it out and shoot me because I’ve obviously gone crazy.

Angel: There are 20 letters in the alphabet, right?

David : Nope, there's 26.

Angel: Ah, I must have forgotten U, R, A, Q, T.

David : Aww, that's cute, but you're still missing one.

Angel: So give me the D.

Angel: Hey, I’m getting in the shower. Wanna help me out?

David : ...Have you never taken a shower before?

David, sweating: Angel, there’s something I need to ask you-

Angel: Finally! You’re proposing!

David: How’d you know?

Angel: David, you’ve dropped the ring five times during dinner.

Angel: I even picked it up once.

David: I want to kiss you.

Angel, not paying attention: What?

David: I said if you die, I wont miss you.

Baabe: I’ve been dropping them the most insanely obvious hints for like a year now. No response.

Asher: Wow. They sound stupid.

Baabe: But they’re not. They’re really smart actually. Just dense.

Asher: Maybe you need to be more obvious? Like, I don’t know… “Hey! I love you!”

Baabe: I guess you’re right. Hey Asher, I love you.

Asher: See! Just say that!

Baabe: Holy fucking shit.

Asher: If that flies over their head then, sorry Baabe, but they're too dumb for you.

Baabe: Asher.

Baabe: You know my motto: carpe diem, carpe noctem, carpe coles.

Asher: Seize the day, seize the night, what’s the last one?

Baabe: Seize the dick.

Asher: We have a problem.

Baabe: No, YOU have a problem. I have an idiot who keeps making them.

Baabe: I'm trash.

Asher: As someone who's environmentally conscious, it's my duty to pick you up. Does 7 work for you?

Baabe:

Baabe: You smooth motherfucker.

Baabe: And yes it does.

Asher: Sorry I’m late, I was doing things.

Baabe: Hi, I’m ‘things’.

Asher: Valentine’s day is just a consumerist holiday that holds no real value other than drive people insane buying heart shaped chocolates for their significant others and pos-

Baabe: I wrote you a poem.

Asher, already crying: You did?

Milo: Being gay is a constant battle between "I wish to sit on a window bench with my lover, our legs tangling as we listen to the birds" and "Hey, let's go throw rocks at fascists" and I think that's very sexy of us.

Sweetheart : If the window's open and you time it right, you can do both.

Milo: I fell—

Sweetheart : From heaven?

Milo: No, I literally fell—

Sweetheart : In love with me the moment you saw me?

Milo: MY ARM IS BROKEN!

Sweetheart : Okay, but do you think I'm pretty? Be honest.

Milo: Okay, but what if we went to dinner not as friends this time?

Sweetheart : AS ENEMIES?!

Milo:

Milo walking into the kitchen and seeing all their limes peeled: Sweetheart , I love you but, what the h-e-double FUCK.

Sweetheart , sipping coffee happily: I love you too :)

Sweetheart : I don't know how to tell you this, but... I love you.

Milo: That's great, Sweetheart . Especially considering the fact we've been together for 6 fucking years.

Sweetheart : I’m in love with you.

Milo: We called off the prank war last night at midnight, dork.

Sweetheart : I know.

Milo: Ah. Okay. Um. Cool. Neat. Very cool. Cool. Cool. Coolcoolcool-

Sweetheart: I was going to suggest we do Marilyn Monroe and JFK roleplay, but I’d get way too into it.

Milo: What- how?

Sweetheart: You’d be like “come to bed … Mr. President” and I’d be like, “I need to increase the amount of American military advisors in South Vietnam by a factor of 18.”

Milo: Wait, what's going on? Are we all talking about how hot Sweetheart is? Because Sweetheart is a straight up sexual fox riding a red-hot nuclear bombshell right toward the yowza plaza in the heart of Babe City, Assachusetts, U S A. The last A just stands for more ass.

Sam: The stars are so beautiful...

Darlin': They're just giant balls of gas.

Sam: You know what, if you're just going to ruin this, then-

Darlin': And yet none of them are as huge as my love for you.

Sam: Oh...

Darlin': Wow, Sam, you want to hold my hand before marriage? How awfully lewd of you.

Sam: We literally slept together yesterday.

Darlin': That's NOTHING compared to the lewdness of holding hands.

Sam: I love you.

Darlin', not paying attention: What was that?

Sam: I said I’m selling you to the zOo-

Darlin': Well, Sam and I finally did it!

The rest of the squad: *gasps, shocked expressions, etc.*

Darlin': That's right... We kissed!

Darlin': What are you in the mood for?

Sam: World domination.

Darlin': That's a bit ambitious.

Sam: You are my world.

Darlin': Aww...

Sam:

Darlin':

Sam:

Darlin': OH.

Darlin': I have feelings for you.

Sam: Why? What's wrong with you? Are you sure you're okay?

Waiter: What would you like?

Darlin': Bring a milkshake with two straws.

Sam: *blushes*

Darlin': *puts both straws in their mouth* Watch how fast I can drink this!!

Darlin': You got a date yet Sam?

Sam: No...

Darlin': Well you do now! Get your ass up and hold my hand!

Darlin': Are we fighting or flirting?

Sam: I'm pinning you against a wall with my hand around your neck-

Darlin': Your point?

Darlin': I don't need to go to bed. I'm not tired, I'll be fine.

Sam: But, darling, I'll be so lonely without you. Come curl up in my arms so I can feel whole again.

Darlin': O-oh. Well. Are you trying to seduce me into healthy sleeping patterns??

Sam: Is it working?

Sam: We should get you to a doctor for a check up immediately. What if it happens again, and there isn’t anyone around to help you? What if it’s congenital? Oh my God! Was it me? Did I hurt you?

Darlin': …You realize any other person that made their partner pass out in bed would simply feel really proud of themselves, right?

Sam: Since we're in a relationship now, your clothes are my clothes too. Don't ask me why I have your shirt on, this is our shirt.

Darlin': Fine, but when I come strutting in with your fuzzy socks I don't want to hear shit.

Darlin': Come to dinner tonight. I can’t cook, but I’ll bring plenty of free wine.

Sam: Marry me.

Darlin': This date is boring!

Sam: This isn't a date. I said I was going to the store.

Darlin': Then why did you invite me?

Sam: I didnt, I specifically said "don't come with me," then you said, "fuck you Sam I'll do whatever I want!

(This is long as fuuuuck and took me a good hour, but it was fun)

[sevnation]

my redacted top ten! (listener edition)

1. angel, all i post about on this account is angel. theyre just like me fr and i have so many plots and headcanons for them (theyre a stoner, theyre from a hunter family, blah blah blah) but i also love the way they interact with david, perfect match imo.

2. sweetheart, whats not to love about sweetheart. sassy, break in master, most powerful stealth in the redactive universe to date, and they’re dating milo!

Some Redacted Characters Playing Phasmophobia Headcanons

For any of y’all who don’t know, Phasmo is a kinda glitchy ghost-hunting horror game where ya gotta gather evidence to figure out what kind of ghost is haunting the “map” go watch someone play it, I think it’s hilarious

I’m not gonna play that game myself but I can watch others play it no problem

Shaw Pack

David straight faces through everything. Never sounds scared over the voice chat

Angel is laughing right next to him because he does have a death grip on their leg

Asher never turns his radio off so everyone can hear him at all times

Is also 100% fearless and knows all the background lore hints by heart

He still screams if he gets got by the ghost though

Milo. Yelps. At. Everything. And jumps

Like seriously if Asher puts something down too close to Milo, he will jump

Sweetheart is sitting nearby laughing their head off

Darlin’ plays with their mic muted unless absolutely necessary so their packmates don’t hear them yelp when something startles them

However they are also very efficient and ridiculously lucky when it comes to hiding and surviving hunts. Even better than Asher and he’s totally not bitter about it

That said Darlin’s not afraid to let the ghost get them in order to mess with the others by leading the ghost right to the boys

Milo’s totally not holding a grudge over it

The mates also have nights where they play together but Sam is kinda grumbly so his mic and controls are co-piloted by Darlin’

When the mates play together Angel always charges in headfirst, bold as brass, and ends up somehow doing most of the work and not dying even when their sanity stat plummets. They ignore almost all of David’s advice sitting next to them because they’re better at the game than he is

But they also scream and jump a lot more (most of it for show to entertain their friends who always get a good laugh out of it)

Despite being almost as good as Asher, Baaabe almost always gets got by the ghost first

Usually because the ghost was chasing Sweetheart and true to their Stealth nature even in a video game, they broke its line of sight and hid and the ghost caught sight of Babe

Sam is usually… there. When it’s Mates Night Game Night he stays in the van/truck. Darlin’ is the loudest backseat gamer

—

Solaire Clan

Darlin’ drags Sam into this game

Vincent loves this game

Lovely takes a long time to come around on it because being hunted in the dark by an unseen force kinda reminds them of Adam

Sam doesn’t know how literally anything works to the point where Darlin’ and Vincent tease that he’s refusing to remember what all the items do on purpose. Vincent calls him an old man and Sam shoots back that Vincent was literally born one year after him and just turned younger and to shut his damn mouth

Which of course makes Vincent laugh harder

Lovely eventually tentatively starts playing the game because of how much Vincent is laughing with Sam and Darlin’

And over time Lovely gets really good at it. A lot of it seems like dumb luck but no. They’re just good

—

D.A.M.N. Fam

First of all, the four-person multiplayer limit means Gavin/Freelancer and Huxley/Damien take turns and eventually Lasko and his Water Elemental I presume

Sometimes Damien and Huxley are both on the game and Gav/Freelancer swap, sometimes vice versa, etc.

Lasko screams at everything at first, but as he slowly learns the game he actually becomes the best at recognizing the patterns of each ghost type’s quirks

Damien tries so hard to get good at the game and never seem scared but Huxley’s laughter over the mic always clues the others into when Damien got spooked by something

Huxley jumps occasionally but usually just does whatever Lasko instructs him to do with a “sure thing bro” and his usual chill attitude

Although when he does jump there is always an audible thump over his microphone of his knees hitting his desk

Gavin and Freelancer honestly spend the whole game night messing with each other. Trying to jumpscare one another

Or Gavin is pretending to try to seduce the ghost and the lewd noises he makes while talking to the ghost with the spirit box with the radio on totally don’t make Lasko turn as red as a tomato

To their credit, Freelancer does try on their turn. It’s not their fault they get super focused and then Gavin putting a hand on their shoulder to ask if they want a snack makes them shriek much to the amusement of their friends

Lasko’s Water Elemental is even more chill than Huxley and played this game for ages before meeting the group and does their own thing but always to the benefit of the group. Rarely uses the voice chat for more than a few words announcing their intentions. “Power has been turned on.”—“Freezing temperatures confirmed in the upstairs back bedroom. That’s where the ghost is.”—“The ghost is hunting.”—“Okay. Hunt’s over.”

Freelancer and Gavin refuse to show this game to Caelum

Freelancer occasionally announces a false hunt to freak out the others—and almost always a real hunt starts right as they admit they were messing around and they’re the first to get got

If Freelancer isn’t down first it’s Huxley, who will purposely draw the ghost’s attention to protect his friends

That said the whole group usually survives the whole expedition each round once they get good at it

—

Misc. Bois

Aaron doesn’t play but Smartass does. Aaron becomes a decent backseat driver for lore

Elliott and Sunshine actively sabotage each other and mess around more than they pay attention. They still get everything done correctly anyway

Starlight plays occasionally and Avior never does but he will watch and he is the absolute best pattern recognizer and the best backseat gamer

Guy loves this game to pieces. Sometimes it makes Honey jump. They do play with him a lot but Guy is better at it

Ollie is the Actual Best at this game but no matter how much he plays it and “Gits Gud” as it were, he still gets spooked. His partner will play but not necessarily understand everything they’re supposed to be doing

The Project Meridian bois don’t have time to play right now. Please leave a message and they’ll call you right back

Geordi gets so easily spooked by the noises but he loves the game anyway. When things are happy and fine Cutie gets a kick out of listening to his frantic thoughts

Morgan can’t See his own future so the mystery of what’s going to happen is quite enjoyable because it’s the opposite of meeting new people and immediately knowing them better than they know themselves by Seeing their entire future

Blake can See his own future so the game isn’t fun and he knows what it’s going to be every time

[deezbignutz]

Redacted characters as musical songs because I'm a sucker for musicals :))) + some lyrics cuz why not 🤷‍♀️

Guy abt Honey - "Never Ever Getting Rid of Me" From Waitress. He is a simp and he makes sure they know it. Kinda yandere coded, but womp womp ig. (yandere Guy? 😳😏) "Such a stubborn man, you'll likely never meet another." "Oh, I'm gonna love you so." "I though it was hilarious to call a cat a kind of fish."

Damien abt Hux - "When He Sees Me" From Waitress. Damien just overthinking about going out Hux even before knowing him all that much. "I stick with real things, usually facts and figures. When information's in its place I minimize the guessing game. Guess what? (What?). I don't like guessing games or when I feel things before I know the feelings." "What scares me the most. Is what if when he sees me, what if he doesn't like it? What if he runs the other way and I can't hide from it? What happens then?." "Or even worse, he could be very nice, have lovely eyes and make me laugh, come out of hiding. What do I do with that?" Also literally the entire song ngl. It's very Damien coded in my opinion.

David & Asher - "For Good" From Wicked. Just wholesome, very platonic love and friendship shared between two friends. (No, I'm not trying to be sarcastic. They're just very good friends) "I've heard it said, that people come into our lives for a reason. Bringing something we must learn." "Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you, I have been changed for good." :')) "You'll be with me, like a handprint on my heart."

Young David & Asher - "For Forever" From Dear Evan Hansen. Just two friends. On a perfect day. :'))) "All we see is sky forever. We let the world pass forever. Feels like we could go on for forever this way, two friends on a perfect day." "He looks around and says to me 'There's nowhere else I'd rather be.' And I say, 'Me too'." "And I see him come to get me. He's come to get me, and everything's okay." witerally the inversion

Imp!Lasko to Imp!Freelancer - "Meant to be Yours" From Heathers. I don't think I need to explain this one, it just speaks for itself. "You chucked me out like I was trash, for that you should be dead." "You were meant to be mine. I am all that you need. You carved open my heart. Can't just leave me to bleed. Veronica, open the, open the door, please. Veronica, open the door. Veronica, can we not fight anymore, please? Can we not fight-" yada yada yada, you know the audio

Freelancer (?) - "The Wizard And I" From Wicked. It's just them being pumped to go to DAMN and to get to learn more abt their weird and foreign powers. "This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide, is a talent?" "No father is not proud of you, no sister acts ashamed." 🙂 "And this gift or this curse I have inside. Maybe at last, I'll know why."

Asher + werewolf bois - "I Feel Pretty" From West Side Story. Broski is on cloud 9 after meeting Baaabe, and the others are just there to witness his delulu. "It's alarming how charming I feel. And so pretty, that I hardly can believe I'm real." "Have you met my good friend, Maria (Asher)? The craziest girl on the block." "I feel dizzy, I feel sunny, I feel fizzy, and funny, and fine. And so pretty, Miss America can just resign!"

Gavin - "Noel's Lament" From Ride the Cyclone. Just a gay little guy dreamin up his gay little fantasies during work because workin in 7-Eleven is too boring. 👍 "Good girls call me 'The Town Bicycle'. Don't knock it 'til you've tried my life of sin." "He said, 'I think I am in love with you' I've heard that lie a million times before." "'My chils, do you have any final words to the Lord you'd like to say?' 'Oui, tell him that, like him, I coose to burn out rather than fade away!'" get into it, queen.

Avior & Starlight - "What Is This Feeling?" From Wicked. This is how I feel like their first reaction to each other when they're in hell went. "For you see, my roommate is: Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe. Blonde!" "What is this feeling? Fervid as a flame. Does it have a name? Yes. Loathing. Unadulterated loathing." "Ev'ry little trait, however small, makes my very flesh begin to crawl."

Caelum to Freelancer - "Popular" From Wicked. Hear me out. He doesn't mean it in a bad way, he just wants to help Freelancer out in their new, scary school. "And even in your case, though it's the toughest case I've yet to face. Don't worry, I'm determined to succeed!" "So let's start, 'cause you've got an awfully long way to go..." "Now that I've chosen to become a pal, a sister and advisor. There's nobody wiser!" he's just way too excited to show the magical world to them

Shaw Pack - "Jet Song" From West Side Story. You could also debate that this is also kinda like the Solaire Clan, but the Shaw Pack suits it better cuz of how laidback and playful the song is. "When you're a Jet, if the spit hits the fan, you got brothers around, you're a family man." "When you're a Jet, you're the swingin'est thing. Little boy, you're a man; Little man, you're a king!" mmmm, Solaire Clan vibes "Someone gets in our way, someone don't feel so well!" Quinn? That u?

Any and all immigrants moving to Dahlia - "America" From West Side Story. Two perspective on how livin in Dahlia is like. "Buying on credit is so nice One look at us and they charge twice." ✨racism✨ "Life can be bright in America (Dahlia) If you can fight in America (Dahlia)" "Here you are free and you have pride Long as you stay on your own side."

Marcus - "Cool" From West Side Story. Anxious little technician anxious about being found out and fired. :)))) "Don't get hot, 'cause man, you've got some high times ahead." "Breeze it, buzz it. Easy does it. Turn off the juice boy. Go man, go. But not like a yo-yo schoolboy." idk with this one, it doesn't really have much lyrics anyways :\

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk :))))

Lasko with a shifter listener….HEAR ME OUT:

Lasko meets them through the Shaw pack (specifically Milo and Sweetheart) he gets invited to a pack party and meets a particularly attractive shifter

I’d imagine he’d be with someone a little like Gavin- in that they’d relentlessly flirt with him.

LIKE IMAGINE LASKO CUDDLED UP WITH A BIG ASS WOLF WHOS SUPER PROTECTIVE OF HIM

Speaking of which- KODY

They hate Kody, especially how he talks to Lasko; someone they value very highly and absolutely adore. And holy shit they scare him sobad, imagine Kody coming to class the next day with a black eye and broken arm after making fun of Lasko’s stutter.

They take him out on a date and pause- “is it inappropriate to take a professor out on a date where his students frequent? Even after you fu-“ “ITS FINE”

They’re super blunt to say the least.

He either calls them something ironic like: Sugar. Or by their pack Codename (I imagine they have code names for each other during security jobs) THE PACK CALLS THEM BEAR BECAUSE THEY LOOK LIKE A LITERAL BEAR WHEN SHIFTED.

HE CALLS THEM SUGAR BEAR IM A GENIUS (just kinda in my own little world at this point hush)

Bear works for Shaw Security and regularly works out with Ash and Christian (regrettably) it’s mostly just arguing though but that’s just pack for ya.

Lasko owns a bear hoodie

BEAR IS A CLOSETED GENSHIN IMPACT PLAYER AND ENJOYER- venti reminds them of Asher

These two meeting were a pack event within itself, Angel and babe were watching them the entire time Bear and Lasko started talking Just ON THE EDGE OF THEIR SEATS

Bear leaning on the counter and crossing their arms: “a professor, huh? Whaddya teach?” WITH JUST THE MOST INTNSE AND INTERESTED GAZE

Imagine the DAMN crew meeting Bear- HUXLEY THINKS THEYRE SO DOPE and Damien’s just happy his friend found someone.

They carry Lasko around his apartment when he’s sick

Lasko relives stress by burying himself in their coat WHICH IS THICK AND BROWN AND SO FLUFFY

They aren’t the BIGGEST wolf like David is, but they’re about the same size as Asher. THEY ARE SO FUCKING FAST THOUGH MILO HATES IT

They used to fight Darlin for snacks

HUX AND BEAR WORK OUT TOGETHER

Huxley used to DJ for DAMN parties and Bear shared playlists with him

Bear’s aesthetic:

BEACH DAY HEADCANONS

Milo n Sweetheart : They are STRICT. On sunscreen. Sweetheart is normally the one to pack the bags while Milo makes sure everyone is still coming so that Sweetheart doesn’t pack too much food. They also are very welcoming to anyone extra who is brought !! 10/10 beach buddies !!

David n Angel: David HATES the beach. Can’t stand having sand in the Jeep. Angel LOVES it at the beach. They love putting their feet in the water, and walking deep into the water so on very rare occasions, Dolphins will come up to them. David has to be in charge of making sure Angel AND ASHER put on sunscreen because without him, the two will look like burnt hotdogs. David does all the food packing and drink bringing.

Asher n Baaabe: Asher does not wear sunscreen. Baaabe wears an unreasonable amount. Asher will let Baaabe draw a smiley face with sunscreen on his back so when he gets sunburned the smile is still there. Asher surfs like the water is gonna be gone tomorrow. Baaabe sits back with everyone else, talking about “alot of nothing” as Ash calls it. THE TWO ARE SO FRIENDLY TO EVERYONE, THEY LITERALLY INVITE STRANGERS TO HANG OUT WITH THEM IF THEY HAVE THE ROOM.

Darlin n Sam: They have to get there when its still dark, and put up the tent super quick for Sam. Not because he can’t be in the sun (idk if he can or not) but because he hates the heat and will melt like a snowman at the slightest UV ray. Darling digs holes in the sand that are strangely human shaped. Darling can’t swim. The lifeguards at the beach have had to return them to Sam more times than either of them would like to admit. Vincent doesn’t normally like the beach, but he’ll go if him and Lovely are invited by Sam.

Lovely and Vincent: They don’t go to the beach unless asked. Neither of them like sand. If they wanna see sea animals they go to the aquarium. <3

Skating Around Us

(Valentines Edition)

This is a Valentine’s Day special!! I’m giving gifts for my readers and also the ones who inspired each AU! I hope you like it! More will be coming out later this week. I caught COVID, literally tested positive after posting this so it may take longer to put out!! I’m so sorry!

PT. 1

Summary: An Asher x Baabe Fic. Asher is a hockey player and Baabe is a figure skater. @itsdaifuku is the reason for this fic!!!

—————

It had been a long year for Asher and Baabe. Stanley Cup Winner, Asher, had recently begun the new hockey season. His partner, Babe, or Skates, depending on who you ask, had won the Winter Olympics gold metal and started competing again recently. They found themselves being pulled in every which direction, ones that often pulled them away from one another.

Tonight was Asher’s first night before a week off. He wanted to meet up with Babe, maybe catch a bite, and spend some… Quality time… together.

He took out his keys, turning them in the lock. He opened the door, expecting to be greeted by his wonderful partner, but was only met by silence.

“Babe? Baabe?!” He called out to them earning no response. He checked his phone only to see a message light up on his screen.

BAABE 😍💕💍

Hey!! Head to the kitchen and look in the front drawer, the one with the cookie cutters.

ASH 🐺❤️😘

What’s going on?

He gained no response so he decided to follow his partners directions. He dropped his bag in the doorway and walked over to the drawer opening it to find a small box and a note. He opened the box to find the watch that he had been looking at for weeks on it. He loved how perceptive Baabe was, he loved how well they knew him. He unfolded the note, written on hot pink paper.

‘I hope you like the gift! I hope it fits you well! Humor me and join the hunt. Where do we always build pillow forts?’ The note read out. Asher smiled to himself, ah it was a scavenger hunt. He decided he’d take the bait. He knew immediately where they were leading him. He walked into the living room and found a box full of his favorite snacks. This basket had a yellow note on it. He picked up the note and unfolded it, almost dropping it as he also opened the bag of one of his favorite snacks, stuffing some of its contents in his mouth.

‘I’m proud of you! You found the clue. Now this next one won’t be an easy target. It’s moving and living and breathing. They’re a bruiser, but not to worry they have a doctor on their side. With them your next clue does reside.’ Oh no. He had to track down Tanker? If they didn’t want to be found, it would be hell finding them. He quickly took out his phone and called them.

‘Ring Ring’

‘Ring Ring’

‘Ring-‘

“Hello?” Tanks voice came from the other end of the line.

“Tank, Where might you be?” Asher asked innocently enough. He could hear Tank chuckle.

“I’m at Sam’s house. We have a dinner reservation at 6. You got 20 minutes before we head out. Good luck, oh and bring your skates.” They hung up and he grabbed his skates and keys before heading out. He quickly started his car and headed out. He arrived at Sam’s house with two minutes to spare. He walked over and knocked on the door.

“Hello Ash.” Sam said answering the door.

“Hey is Tank here?” Ash asked getting right to the point.

“I’m right here Ash.” They walked forward checking their bag. They reached into their pocket pulling out a note and handed it to him.

“Thank you!” He read the note.

‘I’m glad you made it in time, now if you don’t mind. Take a look back, at the leader of your pack.’ He finished the note.

“Good luck getting to David.” Sam said as him and Tanker got in the truck driving off.

Asher nodded and quickly took out his phone. He called David.

‘Ring ring’

‘Ring ring’

“Ash?” The voice rang across the line.

“Hey Buddy, where you at?” Asher asked cheerfully.

“My House.” He responded before hanging up.

Asher got in his car and drove over, pulling into David’s driveway and jumping out. He knocked on David’s door. This time David answered the door, before Angel pushed passed him and handed Asher the note.

‘Great Job on finding Davey,’ he began to read aloud, David groaning at the nickname. ‘Now find someone who skates with me. He is a literally a star, from David he lives, not far.’

“They mean Vincent right?” He looked over at Angel, who nodded in return. “Thank you!” He ran back to his car and drove off. He knocked on the door of Vincent’s home.

“Well Hello there,” Vincent said answering the door with lovely under his arm. He held out the note between two fingers.

“Hello.” Ash said as he took the paper, reading it aloud.

‘Great Job finding Vincent and Lovely, their a great pair. You have a final spot to clear the air. Your manager and their boyfriend hold the clue, that in the end will bring me to you.’

The pair bid him goodbye as he texted Stealth.

BOYFRIENDS BOYFRIEND 🥱🤭

Wya?! 🤔🤔🤔

MANAGER 🫥🏒

At my house. Hurry Up 🥱

He shoved his phone in his pocket before heading up to their house. He was still excited to participate but he was getting restless. He wanted to see them already. He walked up to their door but they already had it opened and were holding the note out to him. Milo was wrapped around them.

“Thanks!” Ash said taking the note.

‘Thanks for finding them. Now for your final clue, look back to where it all began.’ Where it all began? Where was that. He creased his brows how he always had when he was thinking. He suddenly popped up.

“RINK C!” He yelled out. He jumped up and ran to his car. “THANK YOU!!” He yelled out to them heading over to the rink. He carefully parked his car before grabbing his skates and heading inside. He made a bee line for rink C. He finally arrived and pushed open the large glass doors. He saw that the room was dimmed, save from the few candles outlining the rink. He walked over the the red bench where he had met his now partner.

On it he discovered a bouquet of carnations and red roses. Attached to them was one last note.

‘Skate up and get out on the ice.’ He did just that and quickly headed out onto the ice. Suddenly he heard the doors open and saw babe coming over to join him.

“Hey Baabe. Thank you for all of this.” He smiled as they came right up to him. “What’s this all been about huh?” He smiled as he rubbed their arms.

“Well,” they began as they got down on one knee.

“Why are we getting on our knees?” Asher said beginning to bend down. They quickly pushed him back up.

“No no! I’m supposed to be down here. You stay there.” They sighed as they looked up at him. “Asher. I love you so much. From the first date we had, I knew we were made for each other. You have taught me how to be firm in love. You taught me what genuine, true love feels like. And for this I am forever grateful.” They took a deep breath, choking back tears. “You are the one for me. We have stuck with each other through thick and thin and there is no one else I would rather do life with.” They reached into their pocket and pulled out a box, opening it to reveal a shiny silver ring. “I love you more than words can express. Will you do the honor of being my husband?” They looked up at him hopefully. He had tears in his eyes.

“Oh my- Yes! I love you so much!” He kissed them tenderly, lovingly. They could taste the tears running down his face. He pulled away looking at them and slightly giggling to himself.

“What?” They asked standing up with him as he patted his pockets. He reached in and pulled out another shiny silver ring.

“Yeah I was just waiting for the right time.” He smiled at them grateful they were his and he was theirs. They decided they would love to stay like this forever, in each others presence and completely in love.

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED

“I was waiting for the right time.” He smiled at them and kissed them again. They slid on his ring and he slid on theirs. They held hands and just stood in the others presence.

“I love you Ash.”

“I love you Babe.”

I HOPE YOU LIKE IT!! HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!

[carte-blanco]

FIRST OFF

HEY HEY HEYYYY!!!!!! I’m glad you decided to step out of your comfort zone to join the club!! (I was on tumblr for a while before opening my asks too)

Secondly,

Gimme all of your Sweetheart Hc’s please because i’m OBSESSED with them😫

Lastly,

YOU WATCH JJK AND MHA?!?! FAVORITE CHARACTERS PUHHHLEASSEEEEE😫😫😫

HEYYYYY MS GREER. I SAID HEYYY MS GREER. Its a scary experience for me but I think I'll get used to it. So lets GET STARTED YUHH

So first on the Chart is for headcannons is.....

Detective Sweetheart🕶

1. So for Sweetheart. Her name is Violet Hakuja. Pronouns are she/her. Sir(My sweetheart to be exact I think) It has been a HEADCANNON for a while that sweetheart's parents, especially one of their parents is a detective but soon after retried due to an accident for them which lead to Sweetheart having the burden of carrying on the legacy of detectives in their family.

2.Sweetheart is Blackanease(So black and Japanese) she had studied Every art their is to fighting like their mother(whom was the detective) so they wouldn't have to depend on anyone to save them. While also studying the heritage and language of her family. (But y'know can't help but get swept off her feet by a city boy)

3.Has life 4 tattoos, her favorite is the one of a snake coiling around another snake that goes up to her hip and down to her calf. (Her parents don't know about it)

4. She has the habit of drinking a lot due to her stress to prove herself to her family and friends that she's more than her families prodigy. But since she can't drunk as much she turns to being a workaholic between her stressful days.

5. A deep love for Race car driving, kind of went through a rebellious stage growing up. Which led to illegal race car bets and driving past the speed limit... But one of the best drivers out the Shaw pack whom will take you on a spin throughout town if asked.

6. Ok last one last one lol. Her relationship with the pack was much more smoother than she would've thought upon also meeting Milo's mom.

Her and David have that like coworker type of relationship where they will literally talk about nothing but business(Although VI will crack a few inappropriate jokes about his Angel to him)

Asher and Her are troublemakers. Can't sit still for a moment without jumping up at thr thought "Hey lets leave the meeting early and get something eat?". If you can't leave Darlin and Ash alone you CAN'T LEAVE THEM ALONE EITHER

Now Darlin and VI. CERTIFIED BESTIES. That whole family issues crap on top of having a mate who has an accent on top of removing themselves from situations that end up with them in a jail on top asking Darlin for help on cases that are classified. Yeah.....Bestfriends. But don't be fooled they got off to a rough start at first.

Now the JJK AND MHA PART YESSS SIRRR

Favorite Character for Jjk? GOD I HAVE SO MANY but im gonna have to choose my children so...

Megumi and Toge. Don't get me wrong I love Yuji and Nobara. I do. THATS why I stayed in a relationship with Gojo. For my kids but... Megumi and Toge<3 And Nanami

Favorite Character for Mha?

Midoriya and Kirishima. My children come first.

And fatgum

My Thoughts About Hot Boi Summer ‘23:

CW/TW: i will be non-specifically AND specifically referencing at least semi-nsfw content so please dont read if that doesn’t fly with you in any way, please be responsible!

[PSA: THIS IS MY OWN OPINION OKAY - AND I MEAN NONE OF IT WITH ANY MALICE - TY]

DAVID:

Holy shit what the fuck this was Amazing (im referencing the poll on this post because erik did the results on stream, so yeah). David was in my top three picks for the poll and I was gutted that he didn’t seem to get very high - but i think that’s coz it was the first video, so maybe people had forgotten about it/it wasn’t as much in the forefront of the majority’s minds by the time the poll was released. Pretty much no negative thoughts.

VINCENT:

WE NEED MORE CUTE 7/11 DATES OKAY PLEASE ITS SO SWEET. Ofc the snack puns coming in Clutch ugh i loved those. My only issue (“issue”) was literally the same as why i wasn’t over the moon when sam was voted for the ba (sue me. i liked it anyway) and that was just that we had a vincent one a few months ago, and also a pretty pre-sexual vid after that. Also the fact that lovely literally grabbed his junk in semi-(hah, pun)public, but it’s the anti-PDA in me that disliked that part, so feel free to ignore it!

AVIOR:

Also in my top picks!!! I was a tad gutted when we didn’t get his. Saw a lot of posts begging for people to vote for it because yk him n starlight have been in literal Hell for years and therefore they deserve some smut time. Super cute vid, ���A Romantic Night” is totally the right descriptor for it and also AYO WHIMPERY AVIOR??? YES. sorry ahem it’s the demons.

GAVIN:

It was so good. The premise of getting a more subby gavin? chef’s kiss, more please. everything about it was good and i WISH the ba had been how i expected it to go, but we aren’t here for my criticisms of That, so whatever. It links back to an old non-canon Huxley preview vid that was taken from us (RIP) when the channel lost loads of vids, or at least thats what it reminded me of, with the whole BBQ-and-somewhat-sexual-teasing aspect it was amazing and i would like to see more switch-esque gav in the future (*manifesting*)

LASKO:

Not too much to say considering I started this post as a way to lightly complain about the poll results, and Lasky wasn’t on the poll, obviously. Regardless, I’m glad this video went the way it did, I think we’ve seen a lot of lasko being quick to jump the proverbial gun in the last few years, with his non-canon vids, and hooking up with gavin, etc, so it was nice to see him break away from that and ask to move slower coz hell yeah dude, progress and growth!! and i think it shows how much he wants the relationship to be more natural, and not racing ahead, even if he does in part want that - it was sweet as hell.

ELLIOTT (ft. The Dragon):

I gotta say it right off the bat that i just found the video on the more boring end. *POLICE SIRENS BLARING IN THE BACKGROUND* AH FUCK-

I’m just not overly surprised that i think Eli got some of the lowest results on the poll, I enjoyed the video, and i liked it (this will be a recurring statement) but i just didn’t like it As Much. Lots of people (including me, ngl) wanted more of the dragon - but erik’s not about to do weird fantasy not-fully-bestiality-esque stuff guys - and i’m pretty sure I only liked it coz cmon it’s erik doing another hot voice, im gonna be down horrendous BUT NOT FOR AN ACTUAL DRAGON. i am Not donkey from Shrek. And yeah, i know Eli’s powers can be kinda limiting with what they can bring to the (pun not intended) sex-table, but does all of his spicy stuff have to be in a Dreamscape? idk.

ASHER:

My Second Favourite Hands Down. How people picked Sam over riding Ash in the front seat of a rental, i’ll never understand /lh the horn may make me jump every time, but it’s okay, there’s repentance in the tongue kissing, and i stand by that, it was the best bit (or one of the best bits), No Criticisms (except Ash please don’t have sex in a RENTAL. wait until you get to a bedroom at least PLEASE-)

GUY:

Again, i liked it but not as much. I love Guy, he’s one of my favourites, i can’t really say why i didn’t like this video as much as I normally would, maybe the concept just wasn’t rolling with me as well - the whole idea of post-concert seemed vaguely random, but you could argue that about all of these, so it doesn’t count. did anyone else see this or was it just me, coz if it is then i will quietly wave my flag of solidarity from my hole in the ground where nobody can see it.

ANTON:

I voted Anton. It was the sadness with the feelings and the horniness spicyness towards the end, ugh I loved it, Anton come home from war soon please (im terrified he might die because despite everything, nothing Death Related had happened in project meridian yet, and let’s face it, it’s gonna.) - it was nice seeing a different but also soothing take on the “your lover is leaving for an indefinite amount of time” thing, and how it changed in comparison to James’ video on it. Anton deserved the continuation okay. No aggression though.

SAM:

This is where I might get more argumentative because I was so disappointed that Sam won the poll, even though I love sammy. It seemed slightly out of character?? with everything we know about Sam, it just seems so unlikely that he would go to a club, let alone start getting, uh, “busy” n shit while at one. he’s not a big fan of PDA because of his past, in my opinion, and i think overall he’s very private, so the setting and stuff just seemed out of place, it would’ve made more sense for Milo’s or smth to be set there - but hell I can’t tell erik how to write his own characters lmao - and still, the ba was Great. with a capital G.

MILO:

I fell asleep listening to this the first couple of times, which says a lot already. The sensual massage trope has been used as a gateway to presumably spicy off-screen things before (Aaron’s HBW ‘21, Asher’s HBS ‘22) but idky it wasn’t hitting as well as it normally does, maybe it’s wearing thin on my brain. ofc it’s redacted content so i’m gonna eat it up like it’s ass (crude but true) but i listened to it through without falling asleep and was like “yeah it’s good, i like it, but also eh,,,” - like i mentioned, it would’ve made more sense to me if Milo’s and Sam’s were swapped around - anyone agree?

CONCLUSION:

as always, all the videos were really good, and despite whatever came across through this post, overall, i enjoyed all of them, so please don’t take this as a criticism towards erik or any of his work, trust me, i absolutely adore it - i say it every time, but every time it’s worth saying, and also please don’t cancel me. this was a really long post, so a lot of people probably won’t read it, so if you made it this far; well done! have a star 🌟- don’t be afraid to leave any agreements or disagreements in the notes, i love discussing stuff with people! thanks for reading

[clover-46]

Good morning! Hope you slept well!

May I present, David Shaw but as a daycare attendant.

David being a bright spot in every parent's day, either by being someone responsible they know they can trust their kid with. Or just by being someone who is VERY nice to look at.

Every kid who he cares for has decided that when they grow up they are going to marry David. He dreads the days where the kids get ring pops or gummy worms because every. single. time. the kids try to propose to him and he has to say very gently "I'll think about it" to not crush their impossible dreams and make them throw tantrums.

Asher who tries to give the kids ring pops and gummy worms as often as possible. Milo who condones the behavior because he films it and then sends the videos to the parents. The parents find it amusing.

David, the only one he allows in the kitchen to cook lunches and snacks for the daycare attenders. One or two kids always sneak in to cling to his leg because they know he'll never let anything bad happen to them. And they hope that maybe... just maybe today will be the day he accepts their marriage proposals. Or gives them extra tater tots and applesauce.

David making sure everyone is settled down for naptime before reading a story. He does his best to give each of the characters in the story a different voice. Asher and Milo help. Some kids fall asleep instantly, and other kids take this chance to attack him with their third proposal of the day. He's growing tired of it. (these children are me. I am going to propose to him every day of my life. I don't care if he already technically proposed.)

Angel, who comes to pick up a younger sibling because their parents were busy and David doesn't believe that they're the child's older sibling, demanding to see identification while he holds the child. The child isn't going to help Angel because David is holding them and they like it here. They don't want to go back home. (David calls their parents to triple check.)

Angel can't be upset because how sexy mr. daycare man looked standing there all fierce and protective. They are upset at their little sibling for being literally no help whatsoever.

Angel who promises their parents that they'll pick up their little sibling from daycare every day and to not worry about trying to rearrange work schedules and appointments. But they come in earlier than pick-up and Asher calls for David, wearing the same cheeky grin that's on Angel's face.

He comes out from the kiddie room, and frowns when he sees Angel. But that just makes it all better. So they do it again the next day... and the next... and the next.... and the next. Until David says, sarcastically, they should just apply for a job here if they like coming in before its time for pickup. Angel does. And they get in (with a lovely letter of recommendation from Ash.)

David trying not to pop a blood vessel as he stares at Angel tie an apron around them as they join him in the kitchen. (Some kids have left him to propose to Angel instead. He's relieved about that. And only a bit hurt that they would jump ship so fast for someone as annoying as Angel.) "Can you even cook?"

"I can make poptarts."

"Those take no skill. Get out before you poison somebody."

David having a long day, and watching gratefully as Angel takes on wrangling the more wild ones and letting him take care of the calm bunch. The ones who really only want to be near him because he feels like safety. They aren't trying to make him into a sentient jungle gym or a punching bag.

Angel who starts to bring coffee in for everyone in the morning, orders memorized (it's not difficult for David. Black coffee. Ash says it's because David likes his coffee to match his soul. The next day Angel brought him a vanilla bean frappe with a pump of mocha and a drizzle of chocolate sauce.)

David who slowly starts to appreciate Angel's presence at the daycare, even though he suggested working here as a sarcastic jab. Some of the kids have decided that Angel and David should marry because then they can adopt everyone and be their parents. Angel agrees, David says "I'll think about it." except now it's not so much as a carefully planned rejection.

Angel standing beside David, waving to the last kid that got picked up while the sun casts golden and orange rays across the sky. David is getting ready to lock up.

"Have a good night, Ange-" He's cut off by Angel going on their tip-toes to place a kiss to his cheek before waving goodbye to him and heading towards their car. He stands there, still processing what happened for several minutes afterwards.

[hypnos21]

Hello hello! Happy NYE!! Here is my contribution to the Redacted Winter Gift Exchange! My piece is written to @autisticempathydaemon !! I hope you enjoy it, please let me know! Happy holidays!! I got a little carried away with the prompt, but I hope it's to your liking!!

Prompt: Milo and Sweetheart’s second Christmas, and Milo is unsure of what present his partner truly wants. No gift seems good enough, and its christmas eve! Sweetheart, on the other hand, knows exactly what to get Milo. However, it can change the relationship. Sweetheart is scared of ruining what they have. How will the duo present their gifts, and how will the relationship take it?

“I feel like I’ve been here for hours.” Milo thought deeply, analyzing the note on his phone for what appeared to be the billionth time. He had every piece of information he could need about them. Shirt size, pant size, shoe size, favorite book and game genre, anything and everything he could need. Yet, it still didn’t seem that the list was enough. The annoyed sound that left his throat harbored a few looks, but he didn’t care. All he cared about was what to get for his sweetheart. He smiled softly. Sweetheart. The name still caused his heart to flutter in his chest, his core to sing at the very thought of their smile, their laugh. 

Wandering around the variety of shops had helped slightly, turning the cogs in his brain in the right direction, finally. He picked up a few other Christmas purchases, a new sweater for David, (black in color, but soft in texture, David couldn’t stand the feeling of rough wool), a new co-op game for Ash, (aka a new game to be better than Asher in), and a few small gifts for Sweetheart. Little things, items to store in the stocking above the mantle in their home. He smiled, the thought of their home, a safe place for them to be together, a small piece of what their future could look like. He absentmindedly shopped, new apartments on the brain when the thought, more literally than he expected, crashed into him. As he bent down to pick up the books, the recipe books, an idea came to him. One thing he knew about Sweetheart that wasn’t on his list, was their absolute love for cooking. Sweetheart often joked about it being their love language. He always felt the love and happiness they put into their cooking, it always sweetened the meals they made. The cogs in his brain turning faster, almost overwhelmingly, as he worked out the idea he had created. Taking a deep breath, he quickly got to work, picking up one of the fallen over recipe books with a smile. He hoped this present was enough. 

    Sweetheart, exhausted after work, their long and demanding day finally over. Everything had gone wrong during this day. First, they literally rolled out of bed onto the floor. Milo, working an early morning, hadn’t been their to witness the tumble from the soft sheets. Milo. Sweetheart smiled, the mere thought of him holding them in the morning was temporary relief, (and one of the many thoughts sweetheart visited throughout the rough day for a little joy), from the pain the fall had brought their lower back and tailbone. Then, they burned their breakfast, and their coffee order had gotten messed up. But, running behind on the schedule didn’t give them a chance to have their order fixed. Reluctantly, they rolled into their office with a sore back, empty stomach, and an incorrect coffee order. Already a rough day. What they walked into, however, almost made them turn around and go home right there. Their boss had decided to allow students from the academy to come and shadow some of the employees. Normally, this was no problem with Sweetheart, who loved the students they worked with, having a connection made it easier for them to be taught about the Department. However, with the morning they’d had, they were in no mood to deal with teens who were very clearly excited about Christmas Eve. Oh, did they mention they were called in on Christmas Eve? The day they were supposed to have off? However, the increase hourly pay for the day was too tempting to resist. Secretly, they had been looking to upgrade their apartment, a bigger place for them, Milo and Agro. They smiled, their home. A new, bigger, safe space. A place of love, comfort, and utter tranquility. But, with a bigger place comes a bigger pricetag. The building Sweetheart had been eyeing just had a new opening, and for Milo’s big present, they wanted to give him the keys to the new apartment. However, that meant a hefty safety deposit. Luckily, they were picking up the keys on their way home to him. A smile twitching their lips upward for a fleeting moment. Him. Their love, best friend, and sense of home, all wrapped up in one big, beautiful Shifter. The rest of the day breezed by, the thought of their love waiting at home to celebrate keeping them sane. 

Flinging the door open, Sweetheart collapsed on the comfy green couch in their living room. While the idea of a new apartment (which the keys to were wrapped up in a little box with a bow under the tree) was nice, the living room was the highlight of the current apartment. Soft greens and white coloring the room, plants sitting in the windowsill, all adorned with names. The cactus was Sweetheart’s favorite, cute and prickly all in one. The green furniture was something Sweetheart searched for for months. Finally, a lucky trip to the thrift store, it was like a fairy godmother had just dropped off a full set of green velvet furniture, a couch, a chair and a loveseat. Sweetheart had cried when seeing it, and bought it on the spot. The gentle memory was disturbed by the door blowing open, and a rather sweaty Milo standing in the middle. A variety of bags hanging from his arms, covering the logo of his Shaw Security uniform. Sweetheart often told him how much they adored the uniform, and were currently having those exact thoughts, eyeing how absolutely delectable he was in that uniform. Milo placed the gift bags under the tree, but kept one wrapped present under his arm. They had created the tradition that they exchanged one gift on Christmas Eve, and left the rest for the morning to celebrate with the rest of the pack. Sweetheart leapt up, snatching the small box containing the keys. Smiling, Sweetheart led Milo to the bedroom, where they perched across from each other, eager to present the gifts to their beloved partner. 

“Milo, I’d like to open your present first. Mine requires a little work.” Sweetheart spoke softly, hoping to convince him. 

“Sure thing Sweetheart, anything for you.” Milo grinned a toothy smile, a smug look in his eyes. Handing them the present he worked so hard on. Sweetheart gently worked on removing the green and white paper, little trees patterning the delicate paper. A colorful book sat underneath the paper, words leaping out at them, desperate to be read. Recipes of love; dishes of family, friends and comfort. Sweetheart gasped softly, but not at the words on the front, rather what was written inside. Various recipes from their family, a famous treat recipe here, a spicy dish there. But a certain page drew tears in their eyes. Written on the top of the page, Our first dish together. The words written on the page spoke of the first recipe ever created by Milo and Sweetheart in the apartment they sat in, in the tiny kitchen that barely fit one, let alone both of them together. Cooking that dish had been a pain, but it was worth every single struggle when they sat down and ate their meal together. 

“Oh Milo, it’s perfect. I love it, I absolutely love it!” Sweetheart gasped out, tears streaming down their cheeks. Milo felt himself tearing up, pulling Sweetheart into his lap, holding them as close as he could. Kissing their forehead, he held their face in his hands. “Only the best gift for you, Sweetheart, it’s what you deserve and more.” Milo breathed out his words, trying the restrain the tears that started to drip down his face. The two sat for a few minutes like that, simply basking in the love. Eventually, Sweetheart pulled away and offered the tiny box to Milo.

“This isn’t an engagement ring is it? Sweetheart, I love you, but I thought we agreed to move to a bigger apartment first.” Milo laughed, half hoping it to be a ring, but logic got the better side of him. It isn’t the right time for that. Sweetheart laughed, assuring him no wedding or engagement band laid within the tiny box. Milo untied the bow that held the box together, and removed the glimmering set of two keys. Simple in shape, almost like keys to a front door. Small and silver, they fit in the palm of his hand. They felt oddly belonging, settled perfectly in his hand. He looked up, confused. 

“New house keys? Sweetheart, these don’t go to our locks,” Milo mentioned, pulling out the old keys. Sweetheart smiled. “Come with me.” Tying a blindfold on, they led him out the door and to the car. 

    15 minutes later, (Milo claimed it was 30), they had parked and Sweetheart pulled him out of the car. Walking up the stairs, they finally removed his blindfold. Taking a moment to regain his vision, he stared at the door in bewilderment. Finally, the lightbulb clicked, and he inserted the key into the lock. The heavy click of the lock moving made Milo’s heart stop. The apartment was beautiful. Open floorplan, windows, a bigger kitchen, bedroom and living room, it was perfection. He turned to face Sweetheart, who was grinning ear to ear. 

“Do you like it?” They asked innocently, bouncing on their toes. 

“Sweetheart, I absolutely adore it, but why are we here? Are we thinking about a new apartment?”

“Well, the thinking part is over. I put the deposit down for it about 2 weeks ago. It’s officially ours. But, I told the landlord it was a surprise, so we have a week to decide whether or not we stay in it. If you don’t like it, we can keep look-!”

Milo cut off his beloved’s words with a hug, sweeping them off their feet with a shriek. 

“Yes Sweetheart, I’ll live here with you, its perfect for us. The home of our dreams.” 

When Sweetheart was released, Milo was in full blown tears, sobbing about how perfect it was. Sweetheart, in turn, began to cry as well. The duo stood in their new home, perfect and warm and already full of so much love, and neither could wait to start filling it with more love and creating new memories there.

Their little heart was running at 100 miles per second. It was fast to the point it looked like something out of the Sonic the Hedgehog universe. It leaped and hid behind a human who was enjoying their morning coffee. The human noticed the animal as it was literally vibrating from immense fear.

"Oh my, whatever was chasing you, you must've frightened you so badly."

The little fox peeked out from under its tail to see the human. It gently scooted away before the human reassured they weren't there to hurt them. The fox felt a radiating warmth coming off the human. The fox sniffed the human's hand as he accepted and climbed underneath the jacket and pressed itself against the human's body.

"Wow, you're literally vibrating."

"Baaabe. Where'd you go?"

"I'm over here, Asher."

The fox peeked out to see another human approach its protector. Their little nose twitches as it senses a more damp earthy scent that is practically pouring from the other human. It hides and whimpers into his protectors chest.

"Uh Babe, you have a fox in your jacket."

"I know the poor thing is scared to death."

"Hey, little guy. There's no reason to be afraid. We're friendly."

The fox looks as if it's calmed as they're picked up and carried to an apartment hidden from prying eyes. The fox curls up on a blanket and immediately falls asleep.

"This fox isn't like a normal fox."

"What do you mean?"

"It never pawed at me, snap at me, it basically squirmed its way under my jacket and clung to me like a kitten."

"It's almost like they understood you weren't going to hurt them."

"It also understood perfect English."

"Do you think?"

"Do those types of shifters exist?"

"It's possible, but they're more common in Eastern Asia."

"Should we call someone?"

"Milo's partner may know something, David's also a good option?"

"I don't know. David might send the creature into cardiac arrest."

After going back and forth on who to call, Asher called Milo and their partner over to check on the fox. Asher watched over the fox as their partner, who is nicknamed Babe, cooked some rice with chicken.

The little fox's nose twitches as it opens its eyes, letting out a big yawn and having a big stretch. It followed the delicious scent as Babe finished placing the cooled meal into a bowl as the fox happily ate.

Milo and their partner knocked on the door to Asher's apartment as he welcomed them both in. Asher pointed them to the kitchen when Milo's partner caught something about the fox.

"Your apartment let you keep a wild animal as a pet?"

"I'd say we're way more wild than this little guy."

"That's not a normal fox."

"How so Sweetheart?"

"It literally has a glowing aura surrounding it."

Milo and Asher blink as their eyes turn golden yellow as they, too, see the aura surrounding the fox.

"I had a feeling I was right."

"Never thought I'd see a fox shifter."

"I thought they were a myth?"

"Apparently not."

"What shall we do?"

"Let's let them finish eating, and then let's call David and Angel over to discuss this."

Babe and Sweetheart made sure the fox was well fed and had plenty of water before it explored the apartment. It was like watching a kitten explore a new home that brought smiles to everyone. The fox was more comfortable around Babe and Sweetheart as it was still wary around Asher and Milo since they were werewolves. A hefty knock sounded as Milo answered the door. David and Angel walked in as Angel immediately locked eyes with the fox and gushed about it. The fox sniffed and circled around Angel before it went back to Babe and attempted to bury itself in their clothes.

"What's going on here exactly?"

"Asher and their partner found a shifter."

"We were wondering if you could help them shift back into their human form."

"I mean, I can, but it's also slightly dangerous. If a shifter stays within their animal form for a long period of time, it's mostly a form of defense and security. It could be possible they don't remember what they look like, hence why they stay in their animal form."

"Can you talk with them?"

"I can try."

David took in a deep breath as he opened his eyes. His eyes became a deep red as the fox's eyes began to glow a beautiful orange as the fox tried to fight. David broke the connection as his mood shifted as he looked upset.

"What did you see?"

"They had their human form altered against their will."

"Did you figure out their name?"

David nods as he tells Asher to give a laptop to Angel. One of Angel's talents, besides being a pain in the ass to their husband, is that they're an excellent computer hacker. David wrote down the name and gave it to Angel as they got to work. Babe and Sweetheart gave the fox pets to soothe them before Angel found the fox's human identity.

"Their name is Amari Cairo Knox."

"Beautiful name."

Hearing the name made the fox literally hide in another room. Everyone watched out of pity before they observed the social media pages.

Amari was of mixed heritage. They looked to be a little bit shorter than Milo with the skin complexion of honey. Their hair was pure black styled in a short wolf cut. Their body was the literal shape of an hourglass, and it looked like they didn't grow a speck of body hair nor facial hair.

"Is it wrong to feel envious?"

"I don't really have an answer for either of you right now."

Angel scrolled further when they caught a picture of Amari standing with a woman behind a birthday cake. David sneered and growled as he pointed out that this woman was behind altering the fox's human form.

"What else did you see, big guy?"

"He has been constantly under the knife. Coming from a family who's well off financially, that scum of the earth literally made his body feminine without their consent."

Everyone was in shock, to say the least. This lit a fire within Angel as they immediately started typing away on the laptop. David attempts to stop Angel, who ignores him as they shut out the people around them.

"Angel?"

"Don't worry, David. Sweetie and I will watch them."

"What's going on?"

"Angel is attempting to drain our new friend's former family's fortunes into a new bank account."

"What?"

"There's no talking them out of it. Believe me, I tried when I got let go from my place of work."

"They've done this before?"

"Did you not think it was strange for a thriving tech company to shut down immediately and file for bankruptcy?"

David, Asher, and Milo all exchange looks before they step away and discuss how to integrate Amari into their pack.

"How much did Angel put into your new bank account?"

"I'll text it to you."

David, Asher, and Milo all agreed it was best for Amari to stay in their fox form. It was safer, and time will tell when they're comfortable shifting back into their human form. Babe suggested they would put small photos of Amari throughout the apartment, heavily edited as to give them some reassurance. Sweetie gets to work on editing pictures sent from Angel.
