Helping you in a panic attack — Gojo Satoru

Pairing : Gojo Satoru x f!reader

Genre : heavy angst, hurt and comfort, sfw, a small millisecond of fluff at last?

A/N : Sorry if someone did this already, but i wanted to write something sad so bad lol.

WARNING : panic attack, self harm, mentions of blood, crying, tears, past abuse & bullying

“This is kinda big for you, huh,” Satoru says, kneeling on the bathroom tiles in front of you and rolling up the sleeves for a better fit.

You're not in the best state, sickness taking a toll on you in the middle of literature class. Satoru blames it all on how poorly you've dressed yourself so he asks for permission to bring you to the bathroom and put some of his.

Your wrists feel cold where he touches and his blue eyes freeze when his fingertips brush over something over your skirt pocket.

It's that bloody pen, the one that—

“Shit,” Satoru mutters.

It has been two years since you last saw them. The reason of your current panic attacks. Two years since your boyfriend reported them to the police for severe bullying case. Although they're gone, they did leave their evil habit to corrode you by yourself, untill you collapse of self deterioration. That is, if your boyfriend wasn't there by your side.

The bathroom's lights are dim but he can faintly make out where your skin is darker under his jacket that he made you wear, like it's bruised. He takes a long breathe. Satoru's fingers tremble as he goes to pull it out of your skirt.

“Stop! ” you shout suddenly, standing bolt upright from the closed toilet seat he made you sit on, eyes wet and unfocused.

He looks at you, and the only word Satoru can think of is broken. He feels protective over you all of a sudden. He's the only one in this world who knows what you've gone through, and there's no way he's not going to do something about it.

“y/n, please,” Satoru says, taking a step towards you. “Let me take that out. It's not good for you-”

“It is,” you're still shouting, voice cracking, taking multiple steps back, as if you're a cornered prey and Satoru is hunting you. “It is, you can't take it, you can't-”

“Give me the pen,” Satoru's chest aches. “Please, pup, you're hurting yourself.”

“I'm not hurting myself, it helps,” comes your croaked voice. You walk back, away from him, and then trip on something, probably the wet floor. You don't even try to get up. Just there, staring up at Satoru with those terrible, glassy eyes. It's coming, your panic attack — you can feel it. You don't want it again.

“You wouldn't understand,” you say like a stubborn kid accusingly. “So- j-just stop trying to act. You don't get, it helps, it's all I have--”

“No, you don't get it,” Satoru voice reaches an octave. There's something telling him he shouldn't be angry, that you're only lashing out because you're desperate, but Satoru is still Satoru. “Its crazy, the way you hurt yourself with that damn pen all day! ” His chest heaves but he needs to say more, finish this once and for all. He sees it, that godforsaken pen clutched like a candy in a kid's hand.

“It's not helping and for god's sake will you take it out and give it to me? ” Satoru's voice echoes in the dimly lit space and that's when he realizes he'd been shouting. Just like your father had been. It's deathly quiet then, just the soft buzz of a few fireflies dancing around the visible light.

He is breathing hard, gulping because he feels like he's choking. You're still on the floor and crying. Satoru did not want this.

You look so lost and pathetic, sitting on the cold bathroom tiles, trembling with suppressed sobs and fingers hooked under the pointed pen you stabbed your wrist with. He looks at you and you look heartbreakingly small. Satoru's anger leaves him in a moment.

“I'm sorry,” the white head says immediately, collapsing to his knees and gathering you into his arms. You don't move, just let your forehead rest on his shoulder like a limp mass and try to breathe.

“Fuck, I'm so sorry, babe,” he swallows, wrapping his arms tighter and feeling like the worst person in the world right now.

You stay there for a long time, minutes or hours or more, pressed against your boyfriend in the biting cold. You wonder how he's still keeping up with you. When you stop shaking, Satoru pulls back slightly to see your face.

You've definitely stopped crying but your eyes are no less of a void than before.

“Hey,” Satoru murmurs, and you lift your head a bit. He removes one arm from around you and places his hand on your cheek, still damp. Only then do you look at him, eyes confused, dazed. Your skin is soft with tears. Satoru feels like he has something incredibly precious in his arms, that's equally fragile.

He uses a thumb to wipe them up, leaning in so that your foreheads touch along with your nose. You blink.

“Let me? ” Satoru asks quietly, his warm palm around the silver metal pen forgotten in your hold. You swallow and nod, eyes still on Satoru's.

He pulls out the pen from your hand and places it behind him on the floor. “You don't need to hurt yourself,” Satoru says. “There are other ways.”

He has no idea whether you hear or even understand him.

“Stay over at mine,” Satoru says. He doesn't ask because he knows you won't answer him.

You both stand up and walk to his house. Your boyfriend holds your hand, which was unresponsive but warm.

When they get inside, Satoru's mom is at the island in the kitchen, leaning against the marble counter, reading something — presumably a philosophy book. She looks up as Satoru enters.

She stops when she notices you behind him, face scrunching into that of worry.

Satoru gives his mom the best 'don't ask' look which she being his mom, understands easily and nods.

“Let's go upstairs,” he tugs on your hand, and you trail behind the boy silently.

When you get into his room, Satoru offers you some of his clothes which you know will literally drown in just by looking at how big they look. He goes to the bathroom while you change, brushing his teeth and preparing for the bed. When he finishes, he comes out to see you standing in the middle of the room, scratching at your wrist. You look really small in his grey t-shirt and he finds the fact so adorable.

“Aren't you going to get into bed? ” Satoru says, and your head snaps up incredulously. Satoru, irrationally, blushes.

Yes, your little relationship hasn't gone much far yet.

“I'll sleep on the couch, don't worry,” he says quickly, nudging his chin at the fold-out he keeps in his room for when Geto & Shoko stay over after playing video games. “it's a pretty comfy couch. Don't have to think about me. And uh.. not that my bed's not comfy, 'cause it is. Everything's comfy.”

He regrets talking too much. Oh how he wishes to learn a technique that can close his big mouth.

He chuckles nervous and awkward and you get into his bed. You pull the covers over yourself, your line of shoulders still tense but he decides he can do nothing about that. He doesn't want to make you feel even more uncomfortable.

“G'night,” Satoru says, and turns off the light. He grabs a pillow and and lies down on the couch, tucking his blanket tightly around himself.

Now he can't really sleep, and judging by your odd breathing, neither can you.

“Satoru? ” You call out of nowhere, and it's so unexpected for him Satoru nearly falls off the side.

“Y-yeah? ” he replies.

Satoru's s heart is close to ripping out of his chest as his throat goes dry simultaneously.

“Do you still care? ” you ask after a pause. He doesn't say anything, so you elaborate for him in a more straight-forward way.

“Do you still like me? ”

“Yes ” he manages. It sounded more like a question, as if he expected you to go somewhere with that. Of course he still likes you, what were you thinking?

Satoru cranes his neck to look at you, whose posture under the covers seems to be more relaxed. He bites his lip on a smile.

A/N : they're still working on it :) feeling down? text me if a talk can help ♡ aaannddd! reblog if you enjoyed this hc! even likes are appreciated ^-^

P.S. : sorry if i did not make it clear what's up with the pen here, she used to stab herself with the pen on her wrist as a coping mechanism for her panic attacks (to ground herself!)

Character Jerome Clarke

Couple Jerome X Reader

Rating Sad and Adorable

"tell me about her."

I couldn't hold back a smile, "I mean... there's so much to say, she's so sweet, she's caring, she's Incredibly funny she makes me laugh all the time, she's smart, but not just book smarts she's like really like clever. I just..." I blushed, "I just... love her. She's... I don't know whenever I'm with her I feel happy. I feel safe. I never want it to end I just... I love her." 

"You ever told her?"

"No. I... I don't think I've ever even said it out loud." I told her, "And the fact that she might die before knowing how I feel... I can't think about it, the thought of losing her, it doesn't seem fair... I should've just told her from the beginning..."

"...life isn't fair Jerome. It's why it's so precious"

"but is it fair that I'm losing her like this? that I have to watch her get to such a critical point? that if she dies it's all going to be my fault? that I never told her my true feelings?"

"It's not your fault. no matter what happens it's not your fault."

"but I couldn't save her, if she dies now it is my fault... maybe I could have said something done something... I should've told her and maybe then she'd try to fight this harder for me, maybe she'd keep going but now she's giving up because she thinks nobody loves her or wants her alive..."

"Jerome, it's not your fault she's fighting believe me she is fighting. It's not your fault if she dies"

"I want to believe that but right now, I just can't. it's... it's so hard to believe that" my whole body felt numb with pain and sadness I wanted to be with her holding her hand, "but... what if she... what if she doesn't make it out of the surgery? what if- what if she dies on the table? and I-"

"just... Try not to think about it"

"how can I not when this is my best friend's life? the... the girl I love." I stared at her as I wiped my tears, "I'm sorry."

"It's alright trust me I've seen far worse."

"she has to make it, she has to."

"I hope she will..."

my mind began to race with the thought of losing such an important person to me, the mere thought of it was terrifying enough that I started shaking in the chair, my body trembling I couldn't bear this world without her. and to think... I wouldn't even get to say goodbye if something happened to her. 

"ohh... Good news." the nurse said, 

I bolted upright in my chair, 

"What is it!"

"she's out the surgery theatre"

"Is she okay? the doctors said she was fine, right?!"

"she's alive. Doctors notes say...  medication is being given now moving her onto post-op ward C8 room... 109"

The moment I heard It I grabbed my stuff and got out of the chair, I gave the nurse a hug and a thank you before I bolted through the corridors like a speed demon, my heart felt like it was beating out of my chest but I didn't care, I didn't even bother waiting for a lift I just ran up the stairs! As soon as I saw her room I burst in without a word. 

And there... I saw her. she's alive! 

For a moment my feet couldn't move torn up to see she was alive, lying hooked up to various machines, "she's okay, she's okay," I cried as I set my stuff down pulled the chair beside her and held her hand as tight as I could, I smiled so giddy crying tears of joy just sitting here beside her. 

Slowly after a while her sweet eyes flutter open and glances around the room. I smiled and held her hand as gently as I could not wanting to hurt her but she saw me, faintly smiled and squeezed my hand a little. 

"you're okay, you're okay. I'm here, I'm here," I repeated over and over again,  "let me just..." I gently leant forward to kiss her on the forehead, and another and another and another kissing her over and over again, all over her head and face, before I finally pulled back and saw her beautiful little eyes, "Don't worry, you're safe now. I'm here now, okay? I'm right here and I promise god, the devil or World War Three couldn't get me away from you."

"J-Jerome," she croaked,

My heart skipped a beat just to hear her, 

"Yeah?"

Her hand moved slowly slightly shaking as she moved it before she tapped my nose, and it broke me I cried hysterically holding her close my body trembling "Y/n I'm so sorry. I-i..."

"...why?"

"b-because of me. everything you went through today, it's all my fault."

"your fault... Jerome... You carried me in your arms to the nurse... I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you"

"r-really?"

"really... Without you, I'd have lost my heart in my dorm room bed in class or on the walk to school. They wouldn't have brought me here without you"

"Really? You think... I'm... I'm the reason you're alive?"

"I think so"

"and here I was thinking it was me that had almost lost his heart today, because of you..."

"What?"

 "I- I mean, I was thinking that for a moment I thought I lost you today, and I couldn't have... I... just the thought alone almost broke me, I'd never recover if..." I muttered, "I can't lose you. I just... I just can't..."

"It's okay..."

"no... it's not okay. I can't lose you. I can't ever lose you. you're everything to me."

"you don't mean that..."

"I- I do mean it. I mean every single word. You're the most important person in my life and I don't know what I'd do if I ever lost you."

"you really think I'm the most important person?"

 "without a doubt. I've spent the last few years with you, and every single day has been the best because I got to spend it with you. you've made me happy and helped me grow and become a better person. i... I don't believe I'll ever meet someone like you again." I nodded,

"ohh Jerome I feel the same but you really think I'm more important? What about your sister? Your parents? Yourself?"

 "no, you beat them all. you're the most important person to me. you mean the world to me. you're my everything. without you, I don't think I could keep living." I shook my head, "My sister has been cruel to me as long as I've known her, I rarely see her, I don't even remember the last time I saw my dad and if I'm lucky I see my mother a week out of the year. You... I see you every day, we have in-jokes, and stupid rituals, and you always come to me when you are stuck on a game level... I live with you, you're more a family to me than anyone." 

"Jerome... Don't make me cry"

"Alright, alright, I should probably stop. I just..." I blushed, "Gushed enough... I'm just so glad you're okay. you scared me today."

"I'm sorry I didn't want to scare you"

I smiled and squeezed her hand, "No, don't say sorry, it's okay. I'm just... I'm so relieved you're okay. when I saw you laid out on the bed, I just..." I choked up, "I was so worried about you. I didn't want anything to happen to you because I just..."

"yes?"

"because I love you."

"you - you what?"

"you heard me. I love you. I've loved you since the moment I first met you. every day has been better just because of you. and now..." I told her letting out everything I've ever wanted to tell her, "now I just can't imagine a single day without you. i... I just can't. I love you."

"ohhh, Jerome... I love you too" she began to cry

my entire body shook with joy and my eyes filled with tears at the sound of her words. I lean forward to wipe her tears and smile softly. "really?" I ask, just wanting to hear her say it again. "you really love me?"

"I love you so much, since the first day we met I never thought you cared about anyone like that,"

 "you don't realize how much that means to me. I've never had someone care about me so much and it just... it means the world to me. you have no idea how happy I am to hear those words."

"do you mean it?"

 "oh, I mean them for sure. how could I not? how could I not be in love with you? every time I look in these gorgeous eyes of yours, it's like I'm looking straight into heaven. and your laugh is so beautiful and contagious, I can't help smiling every time I hear it. and your personality is just incredible, I love how carefree you are but how careful you are at the same time. I love EVERYTHING about you, y/n."

"I love everything about you too Jerome"

I smiled and closed the gap between us squeezing her hand and giving her soft beautiful lips, 

"as much as I love you... I think you should stop telling me or I might actually have a heart attack "

"Alright, alright, I'll take it easy. just promise me something?"

"What?"

"Promise me that... that this is the real thing. this isn't just happening because you're in a hospital bed or you're tired or sick, but you mean every single word. you love me."

"I mean it a thousand times over and I'd say it if I was in a hospital bed. In a garden. On a beach. On a mountain. Or on the moon. And I still mean it. And I promise I will tell you all of those places if it means you believe me" She smiled,

"I love you so so much Y/n... can I ask... did you... wanna be my girlfriend?"

"I'd love to Jerome,"

[chuthulhu-reads]

[ID: The Josh Kirby cover of Small Gods by Terry Pratchett. It depicts Brutha, a naked monk with a tonsure haircut and a loincloth, strapped to the back of a large metal turtle with a concerned expression. Smoke is billowing from around the turtle, which is being heated by a brazier underneath. This is being looked over by Vorbis, a tall, bald man in a brown robe with a hooked nose, clawed fingernails and pitch-blank eyes. Several other monks in hooked brown robes are gathered around, including a member of the Quisition in a face-concealing, pointed red hood. Above them, an eagle is swooping down with a tortoise held in its claws. A large hand is reaching across the sky in the background and appears to be producing bolts of lightning. It's a Josh Kidby cover, so it's extremely chaotic and there are probably details I'm missing. End ID.]

Holiday reads! I decided to re-read Small Gods because I haven't read it in years and it's one of the first Discworld books I can remember feeling rewiring my brain as I read it. It involves the Great God Om, regularly referenced in other Discworld books, finding himself trapped in the form of a small one-eyed tortoise because, in all the great and vast and strict nation of Omnia, there's only one person who actually believes in Om rather than just believing in (or rather, being terrified of) the institution of Omnism. That last actual believer, Brutha, has just become a tool of the powerful and devout bishop Vorbis in a plot regarding their neighbouring nation of Ephebe, and has to navigate the edges of a war while figuring out how to get people to actually believe in Om again.

And it all meant this: that there are hardly any excesses of the most crazed psychopath that cannot easily be duplicated by a normal, kindly family man who just comes in to work every day and has a job to do.

Like when I first read this, I was in my early-teens, annoying-militant-athiest, Richard-Dawkins-quoting, taking-out-personal-Christian-based-trauma-and-frustration-by-calling-religious-people-sheep stage, and this definitely redirected me. A lot of the book spends time going: religion can be part of a community and a culture, it can inspire and motivate and support people, but your major and dangerous problems start when a) folk are more devoted to the institution than the religion itself and b) folk figure out how to use religion, and the institutions around them, as tools of self-gain and self-deification. Also, gods need believers arguably more than believers need their gods, and a god that does nothing for their believers is worthless. And there's good eating on a tortoise.

He thought: the worst thing about Vorbis isn't that he's evil, but that he makes good people do evil. He turns people into things like himself.

Every time I reread a Discworld book, I notice something new, whether it's a pun I missed before or an entire new concept. For one, I straight-up never realized that Brutha being strapped to the metal turtle to be roasted to death is meant to evoke Big J on the Cross; it only really clicked for me this time when the local Dibbler mentioned that he'd been planning to sell necklaces with a little turtle pendent on them, but he'd probably have to take the little dying dude off of them first. Definitely lends a whole new meaning to Simony arguing that they should leave Brutha to die so that he can be a martyr, a symbol of Omnian tyranny, and Urn's response being essentially "what the actual fuck is wrong with you". The other thing that clicked in my brain is that Brutha is very autistic and that's how he revives his god, heals his nation, and averts a hundred years of war, thank you and goodnight.

Fear is a strange soil. Mainly it grows obedience like corn, which grows in rows and makes weeding easy. But sometimes it grows the potatoes of defiance, which flourish underground.

Applications of Foundation J Bolts & Foundation Bolts - Anchor Bolt Solutions

This article helps in understanding Foundation J bolts as, they are named after their unique "J" shape, which enhances their ability to anchor heavy objects securely. They are widely used in concrete structures for anchoring because of their curved hook, which makes them extremely durable and able to resist pulling forces. Here’s where they commonly shine:

Securing Steel Columns: One of the primary applications of J bolts is in securing steel columns to concrete foundations. The hook provides an extra layer of anchorage, ensuring that the bolts remain secure under stress and load.

Machinery Foundations: For heavy machinery, precise and secure anchoring is non-negotiable. Foundation J bolts are often used to anchor machines into concrete slabs, ensuring that vibrations and shifts do not compromise the equipment's stability.

Telecommunication Towers: The fast growth of communication technology means more towers are being erected globally. J bolts play a crucial role in ensuring these towers remain stable, especially in areas prone to high winds or other environmental stresses.

Light Poles and Street Lighting: Foundation J bolts are also used to secure light poles and street lights. These bolts ensure that the structure stands strong, even in adverse weather conditions like heavy winds or storms.

This article aslo helps in finding key difference between foundation bolts and foundation j bolts 

Shape: Foundation J bolts have a J-shaped design, while foundation bolts are typically straight.

Application: These bolts are commonly used in applications where the structure needs to be anchored to a concrete foundation. Foundation bolts, on the other hand, can be used with various foundation materials, including concrete, steel, and wood.

Installation: Foundation J bolts are inserted into the concrete and secured with a nut and bolt. Foundation bolts can be installed in different ways depending on the application and foundation material.

This article also highlights that proper installation is key to ensuring that foundation bolts perform as expected. Here are a few best practices:

Pre-Planning: Always ensure that the bolt holes are properly aligned before pouring concrete.

Anchor Depth: The deeper the bolt is embedded, the more secure the anchorage will be. Check manufacturer guidelines for the recommended embedment depth.

Use of Grout: Sometimes, grouting is needed to ensure there are no air gaps between the bolt and the concrete.

Torque Wrench: When tightening nuts on foundation bolts, use a torque wrench to ensure even tension across all bolts.

Foundation J bolts and foundation bolts are indispensable in many industries. Whether securing machinery, building towering structures, or ensuring infrastructure stability, these bolts offer reliability, strength, and versatility. Understanding their applications and advantages helps ensure your project’s success, no matter how big or small.

When you choose the right bolt for the job and follow proper installation procedures, you can trust that your structure will remain stable for years to come. So, whether you’re planning a new construction project or need a reliable anchor solution, foundation bolts will ensure your work stands the test of time.

This guide will equip you with the knowledge to take your garment construction skills to the next level and create clothes that look and feel truly professional.

Bolt Types Explained: Which One Is Right for Your Next Project?

Bolts are one of the most critical components in engineering, construction, and various other industries. Whether you're working on a small home improvement project or a large-scale industrial job, choosing the right bolt is essential for ensuring the safety, stability, and longevity of your project. Each bolt type serves a unique purpose, and understanding their distinctions can make all the difference in your project’s success. In this guide, we’ll explore the different types of bolts and help you determine which one is right for your next project.

The Structure of a Bolt

Before diving into specific bolt types, it’s important to understand the basic anatomy of a bolt. Every bolt consists of three key components: the head, the shank, and the thread.

Head: The part of the bolt that allows a tool to apply torque. Common head types include hex, round, and flat heads.

Shank: The unthreaded section of the bolt that provides the necessary length for the bolt to hold objects together.

Thread: The spiral grooves that allow the bolt to be screwed into a nut or pre-threaded hole.

These components work together to provide the mechanical force needed to secure objects, and the variation in their design allows bolts to be specialized for different applications.

Common Bolt Types and Their Uses

Hex Bolts

Hex bolts are among the most versatile and widely used bolts in construction and machinery. They are recognized by their hexagonal heads and are commonly used for fastening wood and metal. Their versatility makes them a go-to choice for many builders and engineers.

Carriage Bolts

Carriage bolts feature a smooth, rounded head, making them ideal for applications where aesthetics and safety are important, such as in furniture construction. The square section underneath the head prevents the bolt from rotating as the nut is tightened.

Lag Bolts

Lag bolts are heavy-duty fasteners, typically used in wood applications. Their large size and coarse threads make them ideal for projects requiring a strong hold, such as securing beams or posts in construction projects.

Anchor Bolts

Used to attach objects or structures to concrete, anchor bolts are critical in securing foundations. They are often used in applications like building bridges or mounting heavy equipment to concrete floors.

Eye Bolts

Eye bolts feature a looped head, making them perfect for lifting and rigging tasks. These bolts are often used in marine and construction applications where securing ropes or chains is necessary.

Specialty Bolts for Unique Applications

When it comes to unique and highly specialized applications, the standard bolt types often don't cut it. Specialty bolts are designed to meet specific challenges, offering enhanced performance, durability, or functionality in specialized conditions. Let's explore some of the most common specialty bolts and their uses.

Flange Bolts

Flange bolts come with a built-in washer-like flange at the base of the head. This feature helps distribute the pressure of the bolt over a larger surface area, reducing the likelihood of damage to the material being fastened. Flange bolts are particularly useful in automotive and machinery applications where vibration and movement can loosen standard bolts over time. The flange provides a more secure grip, helping to prevent loosening in high-stress environments.

J-Bolts

Named after their characteristic "J" shape, J-bolts are designed to be embedded in concrete or other materials to secure objects in place. Their hooked end makes them ideal for structural applications, such as anchoring walls, columns, and other large structures to their foundations. J-bolts are commonly used in the construction of bridges, buildings, and large-scale infrastructure projects.

U-Bolts

U-bolts are shaped like the letter "U" and are primarily used to hold pipes, tubes, or other cylindrical objects in place. These bolts are particularly useful in plumbing, automotive, and HVAC systems, where they are used to secure pipes to ceilings, walls, or other surfaces. U-bolts can also be found in marine applications, securing boat masts or other cylindrical components.

👁️👁️ joker x yn who gets exposed for having connections with Batman

Please

Hey hi anon! 🖤✨

I HEARD YOUR CRY! Now you didn’t specify what kind of connection sooo I took liberty of making up one on the fly. I can’t in good conscience say this is canon within His Lighthouse lol. Joker would lose the last shred of his sanity if it were. Enjoy!!

Edit: If you wish to read the full oneshot bearing the same name, here's the link! It does have a trigger warning advisory.

This was not how you wanted Joker to be angry with you. You expected him to be upset about your limited edition box set not coming out until the fall or about you hogging all the cover at night.

Not about your extremely old photo-op with the one and only Batman circulating the web again

It literally was a long story and definitely a lot more tamer than what Joker was making it out to be

So what if you had an old selfie with Gotham City’s Dark Knight floating around the web?

So what if the caped crusader was rather handsy with his hand resting wayy too low on your back or that you were licking the cowl and the caption was quite suggestive?

#Leathertastesfunny but #Ihadworse Okay so maybe it was bad. 👀

Joker stumbled across the old pic when a fan reblogged it with a comment. “Wait, does this mean Y/n is smashing Batman?” Then he scrolled and saw the most recent pic that you totally forgot about taking months ago!!

Who knew Batman was so dirty? You were walking back from an outing and almost got into a nasty situation if not for Batman swooping in to save the day

He flirted with you after saving the damsel in distress again; “the leather shouldn’t taste funny anymore”, he mentioned and you laughed and called his bluff (5/10 not bad)

You offered to take another selfie to commemorate the heroic moment. You were not expecting Batman to back you in the wall and grind his hips into yours. Your thumb slipped and oops…

#Themaskstayson okay so yeah um.. the selfie got quite the buzz. Batman was all but f__king you in the alleyway or at least that’s what the photo suggested.

Your airy smile peaking over Batman’s shoulder with your legs wrapped around his slutty little waist all but confirmed it. Yeah it looked bad

And naturally Joker. Flipped. His. Ish.

“J-J… it happened way before you and I even met!”

Why did you say that? Like that small fact made things any better.

You saw Joker’s eye twitch. The date was right there on the post. It was two days before you and him met in Chinatown but STILL it was too close in Joker’s mind. You were his.

He saw nothing but red. You hooked up with THE Batman, his mortal enemy? Was it just a one (twice) time thing or prolonged occurrences?

HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON?

“Did ya f__k him?” Joker growled.

You played with your fingers and looked away. Silence was worse than answering but J had to know.

“I won’T repeat myself, Y/n. Yes or no.”

Cue your stuttering.

“I uhh, well I mean yes but no? It wasn’t a p-in-v if that’s what you’re asking but I did consider it! I have a mask kink okay?! I was curious! I-I mean.. have you seen the man?” You winced when Joker growled.

Alright, not the best confession to say to your psychotic possessive lover, especially since Joker and Batman were bitter rivals.

It was like the ultimate betrayal in J’s eyes. You considered having sex with Batman. Can’t take that back. You started to slowly back away.

“If I were you, I’d run too bunny. Cuz when I catch ya… mmhhm. When I get my handsss on you. I’m gonna ruin you.” Joker was shaking with rage. “One.”

You squeaked in fear and bolted from the room. You tried turning the corner but your momentum made you crash into the wall.

“Two…” You panicked hearing the countdown continue and scrambled to your feet. You made it down the hallway right as Joker said, “Three.”

He casually stood to his feet and stalked your tracks straight into the bedroom.

You thought locking the door was gonna save you? How cute. He broke it open and came to a stop right in front of the closet door. He could smell fear on you and a tinge of arousal. Gods above, he loved you.

“Now I wonder…. where oh where could my little slut be?” He sang out knowing you were in shambles inside.

You were sending a quick prayer upward right as Joker ripped the doors off the hinges and dragged you out by your ankle. Your screams were music to his ears.

The Sunshine Convention- S/T (Cardinal Telephone)

The tip on this new record came from my pal Rich who thought I’d like it and he was right.  I think it’s basically the work of one guy from Brooklyn (“written, performed and mixed by J. Whitener”), but apparently, he/they have a show coming up so there’s a live version of the band as well (and I see a band pic down below).

The first thing I noticed while listening was echoes of GBV (think Bee Thousand or Alien Lanes…..and hey, I hear the new brand new GBV album is very good…got to check out it out) as well as some Cotton Mather and even some early Superchunk.

Anyway, the songs are definitely there. …The first 3 or 4 definitely add large chunks of fuzz and distortion to the proceedings (especially the great “Pilot," I love the hook in that song)  while he gets a bit sentimental on the, dare I say, almost tender “A Soft Bullet In” (see what he did there?). Later on “Sister Judy” twists and turns in the fast lane and “101” is a nice little bolt of fresh lightning.

Only a few songs on here lost my interest, but most of this S/T effort are worth your time and money. So give Mr. Whitener some of your dough, he’ll appreciate it and so will you. Plus we’d all like to hear more.

If We Go Down | J.M.

Pairing: JJ Maybank x Reader

Summary: When JJ gets knocked off the boat and almost drowns, you do everything you can to keep his head above the water. Later, John B tells him how you saved his life.

A/N: I saw a post about jj not knowing kie almost drowned for him and I had to write something based on it. As usual I couldn’t figure out how I wanted to end it so it just cuts off. It’s also not entirely proofread lol

As I am an adult, all characters I write for are written as adults. Any minor characters will be aged up to the general range of their actor’s age.

Warnings: violence, almost drowning

Word Count: 1.5k

-

This was absolutely going down as one of the weirdest weeks of your life, and with everything you and the pogues had gotten up to in the past year, that was saying something. But sneaking onto a ship to save Sarah from her fucked up family and, hopefully, getting back the magical golden cross that once belonged to Pope’s ancestors, that definitely had to take the cake.

You and JJ have been paired up on this expedition, seeing as you always make the best team, and have been tasked to lock the passengers and crew hull. Piece of cake right?

-

JJ leans against the wall next to the hull door, pressing himself as close as he can so as to not be seen. You follow suit on the opposite side, peaking around the corner to count everyone who entered.

“How many?” JJ whispers to you. You hold up three fingers. He peaks through the doorway and holds up six more. After a minute, you hear the Cameron’s coming. Around the corner you see Rafe, Wheezie, and Rose enter the hull.

You turn back to JJ. “That’s everyone,” you whisper and nod your head towards the door.

“Except Ward. We need Ward.”

“We don’t have time to wait, J.”

He pauses for a moment and then with a sigh, he motions toward the door. The two of you bolt towards it, pressing your full body weight against it in an attempt to slam it shut. You aren’t fast enough, the crew pushing back against the heavy door.

“Close it, close it!” JJ yells.

“I’m trying!” You push with all the strength you have, JJ pressing his body up against yours. “Lock it!”

He slams the lock in place and you both take a deep breath. From inside the hull you hear a crew member yell, “Try the other door!”

You and JJ lock eyes. “There’s another door.” In a split second you’re both sprinting to the other side of the hull, slamming and locking the door before they can escape.

“Oh my god,” you breathe out.

-

After dealing with the hull, you and JJ help Pope hook up the cross to the crane so that he can move it to the lifeboat. Then it's time to head up to the deck. The two of you move about the ship considerably less carefully now that the crew and passengers have all been taken care of. Or so you thought. As you round the corner to the stairs, you come face to face with the angry captain.

“I don’t see him,” JJ muses, looking over the side for John B.

“JJ.”

He stops in his tracks. “Of course,” he quips, “There’s more of you.”

“Get down on your knees,” the captain orders.

“Yeah, that's not gonna happen.” JJ charges at the captain, who swings his machete, narrowly missing JJ’s head. You grab his arm as JJ pins him against the wall. He lands a punch to the captain's temple and you pull a door hitting him square in the face, knocking him to the ground.

As JJ squares up, you look over the side of the boat to yell for your friends. You don’t get a chance before JJ gets knocked to the ground, hitting his head against the boat, leaving him in a daze.

The captain turns on you, swinging his machete as you try to scramble away.

“Y/N!” JJ scrambles up, slightly dizzy. “Y/N!”

He lunges for the captain, trying to keep him away from you, but catches an elbow to the throat, throwing him even more off balance. He stumbles again.

The captain turns toward you, swinging his machete but you duck, causing him to miss. His hand keeps moving with the force of his swing, bashing the blunt end of his weapon directly into JJ’s temple. The hit renders JJ unconscious, knocking him backwards where his legs hit the edge of the boat, and he tumbles overboard.

“JJ!” You scream, moving toward the edge of the boat. You kick the captain as he whirls on you again, knocking him to the ground. It gives you just enough time to climb up on the ledge and leap without hesitation.

-

You gasp as you resurface, the cold water knocking the wind out of you. You wish you had a minute to adjust, but you know you have no time to waste as you turn and see JJ floating face down in the water. Paddling over as quickly as you can, you flip him over and lift his head to your shoulder.

“JJ, JJ wake up!” You tap his face lightly, straining with the effort to keep both your heads above the water. You know you won’t be able to hold on long. “Help! John B, Pope, anyone!”

“Y/N!” You hear faint voices coming around the ship. “Y/N! JJ!”

“You hear that? John B’s coming. Hold on J, just hold on.” Your voice cracks as you plead with him.

“John B!” You yell again as loud as you can, but your strength is fading.

You can feel yourself slipping further into the cold water, fighting with every bit of strength you have left. There’s nothing left you can do, you keep treading water, but the water starts lapping over your face. You know you can’t support the weight of two bodies any longer, but you refuse to let JJ go. As you suck in one last deep breath, the water engulfs you.

If you go down together, so be it. You won’t leave him to die.

-

Just as your vision starts fading to black, you feel a pair of hands grabbing your shoulders. JJ’s weight starts lifting off you as you feel yourself rising through the water. You grab onto JJ’s waist tighter as you break through the surface, not wanting to lose him.

“Y/N,” Kiara calls out to you, “It’s okay. Let him go, we’ve got him.”

You look up to see John B and Kie hauling JJ into the lifeboat and reluctantly relinquish your hold. Pope pulls you the rest of the way into the boat and you all collapse in a jumble between the benches.

Before you even have time to catch your breath, you’re up again, moving to where JJ is leaning against the side of the boat, eyes still closed, chest not rising.

You shake his shoulder gently. “JJ, wake up. C’mon J, please open your eyes!” You plead, eyes burning, filled with tears. Behind you, your friends exchange worried glances.

“Please,” you whisper one last time, “I need you.”

He jerks suddenly, sputtering as he coughs up the water in his lungs. Everyone lets out cheers and sighs of relief.

“Welcome back to the land of the living, dude,” John B laughs.

“Oh thank god,” you murmur, feeling like you can’t breathe. Tears stream down your cheeks faster than you can wipe them away.

JJ turns to you, eyes stopping on your hand resting on his shoulder. He smirks at you. “Sup?” You let out a watery laugh. Same old JJ, always cracking jokes.

You shake him gently. “You scared the shit out of me, you asshole.” Pulling him close, you cradle his head in your arms, careful to avoid the spot where he was hit.

-

Later that night, you sit around the fire Pope built on the little uninhabited island you were all currently calling home. “Poguelandia” as JJ had dubbed it. He seemed to be feeling alright, but you kept him in your sights at all times. The hit he took to the head was pretty major and you couldn’t help but worry about him.

Everyone chats in pairs. Sarah and Kie debrief on what happened to one another while on the boat, Pope and Cleo discuss the best course of action for shelter, and JJ and John B sit next to you, roasting fish over the fire. You just sit quietly, watching JJ out of the corner of your eye, not really listening to their conversation until you hear your name.

“Seriously dude, you should’ve seen her. Y/N was ready to go down with you,” John B explains, “By the time we got there you were both going under, but she wouldn’t give up. She wouldn’t even let go of you as we tried to get you in the boat.”

JJ turns toward you. “You really did that for me? You could’ve drowned.”

You just shrug in response. “I wasn’t going to abandon you. If you go down, I go down too.” He just looks at you, an unreadable expression on his face. “It’s not a big deal, J. I’m just glad you're okay.”

JJ scoffs. “Not a big deal? Y/N, you saved my life.”

Your eyes well up with tears again at the reminder of how close you came to losing him and you turn away, not wanting him to see. “Well, I mean you would’ve done the same for me, if the roles were reversed, right?”

JJ takes your chin in his hand, turning you to face him. He wipes away a tear as it falls, thumb brushing over your cheek.

“I would risk my life for you in a heartbeat.”
