For the August prompt could you write something with #28- Polaroids #29- childhood friends with Leo nova or Charles lee ray please 💕
ahh greetings, thank you for requesting !! hmm i went with leo for this one because i got other requests for polaroid and childhood friends with chucky, so happy reading with those, and i hope you enjoy this one too (even if it is a bit short, my apologies) 😊 thank you again for requesting, leo is always a menace 💗 WARNING for suggestions of smut but nothing explicit.
[☀ requests for summer prompts are still open, and will be all month ☀]
leo nova (polaroid and childhood friends)
It had been years since you'd seen Leo.
You heard we went out west somewhere. Somewhere where the sun always shined. Somewhere where he could make something of himself, you supposed.
That was the things about Leo, he was always looking for a way out.
Sometimes you thought you were crazy for still thinking about him. About all the summers you'd shared and about the puppy love you'd been so deeply in. About late nights on warm asphalt roofs and longs days in dirty public pools.
Long drives where Leo's hand was on your thigh more than it was ever on the steering wheel. Drives where he promised he'd take you away with him, when he finally got away.
But that never happened.
He skipped town one day and that was the last you ever heard from him. Life happens, you suppose. You'd just kind of hoped that your lives might happened togehter.
It's silly now though, to linger on the past like that. So you pack it away and forget about it.
One day, in the future, you might find a box full f memories and be tempted to look through it. In it you'll find a stack of polaroid photographs, tacky with age, in an envelope. They fall into your lap and you see him for the first time in years. Candid. You kid yourself that it captures a moment where his walls were down. Curly hair and cold eyes.
When you catch the news that night you see a mugshot with the same curly hair and cold eyes. He hasn't changed. Hadn't changed at all.

Silver or gold?
♡ Pairing - Vash x Reader
♡ Word count - 1k
♡ Warnings - none
♡ Description: Vash has something important on his mind. You intend to find out what.
Now part of the 150 Bullets drabble series on AO3
Tumblr media
It would look nice in gold. Or maybe silver. With a little ruby in the middle, right there.
Vash taps your ring finger. Yes, right there would be nice.
Firelight crackles nearby, and you and Vash are lying down on your sleeping bags for the night. The small cave you’d found shields you from the whipping, sandy winds rising outside. You had long ago scooted over to lay yourself on top of him. Like his own personal blanket, he often jokes. He loves it though. Loves you. And the day’s events got him thinking…well…
It couldn’t be anything fancy. He can barely afford food on the best days. But if it had a little something…
He rubs your finger again.
You shift slightly. “That finger botherin’ you or somethin’?”
Caught, he flinches and lets go of your hand. But you hold on, intertwining fingers together. Your head scooches to rest on his chest more, and he can feel your lips move against his shirt. “You’ve been quiet tonight. What’re you thinking about, birdie?”
Your voice is heavy with fatigue. It’s been a long day, and he feels bad about waking you in any way. “Nothing. You know I overthink stuff.”
Your laugh is quiet, and it’s the best sound. “Sure. But you’re thinking about something real hard tonight. What is it?”
Vash feels his heart pick up, his stomach tickle, just at the thought. And you’re already up, looking at him now with those eyes that sparkle in the firelight. Your smile is faint – you’re still tired, but ready for him. So, with a held breath, he asks, “Did you see that old couple? In the town today, they walked together from store to store.”
You shifted to rest your chin on his chest now. “Um…what did they look like? There were a lot of people.”
They were old, frail. Their feet shuffled like they meant to collect all the dirt they could on their shoes. The man was hunched, but bowed all the lower every time he opened a door for his wife. The woman always laughed and patted his shoulder. And the man would pout, making his wife roll her eyes and go in for a peck on the lips or cheek. “They wore matching ponchos, too.” He added.
Your head rolls to the side, a mischievous glint in your eye. “Are you saying you want us to wear matching ponchos?”
He blows a laugh out his nose, his thumb rubbing the bit of skin exposed on your hip. “Only if we get them in red.”
“Mmph. Should’ve known.”
He goes quiet again, looking down at your held hands. There they were – the nerves closing his throat.
You squeeze his hand to get his attention. “What about them has you thinking so hard?”
Everything. Thinking about growing old together, opening doors for you for the rest of your days. “I don’t know, mayfly. Something about them…” He clears his throat. “It reminded me of us. Maybe. The woman…she had a pretty ring on her finger. And I…” It was like swallowing a rock. He couldn’t get it out. What if you didn’t want to? What if this scared you away? “I was just thinking of…us…”
And with a small inhale, you sit up. “Are you…? You’re talking about getting married!”
Just like that, the rock is gone, and a gust of wind blows out of his mouth. “We don’t have to if you don’t want. I-I haven’t even thought about it – I mean I have – but – I don’t…don’t know much about it besides what I’ve seen. Do you want to? How would we even do it? I mean, with a priest, obviously, but – you don’t have to. I get it. I – “
You silence him with a kiss. It’s slow, meant to feed reassurance to his speeding heart. Only once he hums and kisses back do you break it. You press your forehead to his and sigh out, “Vash, I would love to.”
The breath leaves his lungs in one big wave. Serenity. You have that effect on him. He grows shy, but his shaky smile gains confidence. “Yeah?”
You nod, and an excited little giggle escapes. “Yeah.”
And suddenly, he sits up and wraps you in the tightest hug he can. You let out a breathless laugh, catching onto his coat and pulling him closer. Glowing stripes appear on his neck, and you pull back to hold his face. It is alight with his Plant lines. He is beautiful, and so, so happy.
Nudging his nose with yours, he asks again, “Really?”
You laugh and kiss him and kiss him and kiss him.
/~*~\
Later, when the fire has nearly died out and you both have settled back into near-sleep, Vash perks up and says, “I gotta propose to you. Like, really propose.”
You shift and let out a long, deep breath. “You can do that another night, birdie.”
But you feel his irregular heartbeat pick up. He’s overthinking again. “I’ll have to plan it. It has to be a surprise.”
You snort and nuzzle into his neck. “Just don’t do it during a shoot-out, alright? Or publicly. I hate public proposals.”
“Well, there go my plans.” He laughs when you smack his chest.
You shift to press further into his side and settle down. “Don’t even think of it, Vash. Just go to sleep.”
He hums, runs his hand across your back and whispers, "Hey? Do you want silver or gold for the ring?"
"Mmm..."
A minute passes, and you finally fall asleep. Vash picks up your hand again, tracing your ring finger. He decides gold will look best. He’ll have to go without doughnuts for a while, maybe even some bullets, but he should be able to squirrel enough money away to get a ruby for it, too. He brings your hand to his lips and kisses it. Smiles when you mutter in your sleep.
What a way to end the day.

Part 6: The Counter
Tumblr media
It had just rained, so the streets were full of puddles as Bragnae made her way over to Mario’s, the Italian restaurant Drake had suggested. She chose to meet him there to avoid replicating what happened with Leo. She wanted to find her own way there and back. Not that she’d be sleeping with Drake tonight, but she didn’t want to be reliant on a man to get her home if things didn’t pan out.
She moved swiftly in her skinny jeans and crimson blouse, and avoided a giant puddle as to save her stilettos from getting drenched. A few patrons walked out of restaurant avoiding the awning over the door that dripped with excess rain water.
As she walked inside, Drake was standing there. He turned to offer her a bright smile. “Hi, Bragnae.”
A sudden chill shot down her spine as he said her name. She wasn’t ‘babe’ or ‘sweetheart’, or any other nickname that Leo liked to use. She was just herself. And she liked that Drake used her name. It meant more.
“Hi, Drake.” She couldn’t help the smile she gave him in return. He looked incredibly handsome with dark jeans and a black polo with the logo of his hockey team embroidered on it. Drake wasn’t the type to get all dressed up, but he was resourceful and could pull off any outfit he could find.
“You look nice,” he told her before planting a sweet kiss on her cheek.
“Thank you,” she blushed a little. “So do you.”
“Our table is ready.” Drake allowed the hostess to seat them, but stayed near Bragnae on the way over. “I requested a round booth. I hope that’s okay.”
She looked to the corner of the room where they were headed, and saw a big red padded booth in the shape of a half circle. They’d be sitting close, and she couldn’t say that she minded. With whatever Drake had to say, he wanted her to be near him when he said it. It was intimate to say the least.
The hostess gave them both menus and allowed them to settle in. Drake slid in next to Bragnae with about three inches between them. She could smell his woodsy cologne, and it was both comforting and ruggedly sensual. They quickly decided on their meals and made small talk until the waitress came back to take their order.
Drake took a sip of the whiskey the waitress had brought him, getting comfortable in the booth. He shifted slightly to face her. “So, thanks again for letting me take you out tonight. I really wanted to explain more of why I wanted to take things slow with you.”
Bragnae drank the red wine from her stemmed glass as he spoke. “I must admit, I’m quite curious as to your definition of slow considering what we’ve already done.” She gave him a cheeky smile.
Drake chuckled. “I know. It must seem ridiculous to you, but there is a legitimate reason behind it.” He paused to take her in. “I told you that I liked you even before the night of the bet. If I would have acted sooner, we never would have had that threesome with Leo. I would have taken you out like I am now, we would have dated and hopefully gotten along enough that you’d want to be in a relationship with me.”
He inhaled a breath before taking another drink. “I don’t like to share, Bragnae. Women, I mean. The truth is, what I wanted to tell you last Friday was that I want to be with you. Not just for sex, but for much more – a deep, meaningful connection. Hell, we’ve been friends for the better part of a year now. We’ve gotten to know each other on a casual level, and now we have a physical bond as well.”
His hand covered hers in her lap. “I want it all. The friendship, the sex, the relationship. You are an amazing person. Funny. Smart. Sexy. I love hanging out with you, and I think about you more than you know.”
Drake’s words floored her. Everything he was offering her, she wanted. A feeling of regret washed over her that they hadn’t had the opportunity to discuss this on Friday before she kicked him out. If she had allowed him to stay, maybe she wouldn’t have gone out with Leo the next night. Maybe she wouldn’t have made the mistake of liking him more than she had only to get her heart broken.
“I thought I might have to compete with Leo for you. He seemed to be into you as well. If I could ask… is he trying to date you, too?”
She thought about her answer. “No.” She wasn’t lying – Leo wasn’t actively trying to date her, but she also wasn’t ready to tell him of her mistake. Bragnae wasn’t over that hurt yet, plus it wasn’t as if she and Drake were in an exclusive relationship when she slept with Leo. She knew Drake deserved to know at some point, but that was her recent past to share when she was ready.
Drake let out a relieved laugh. “That’s good,” he said, scooting closer. “I want to be with you, and see where things go. And if it feels right, then maybe we’d move forward together.” He brushed a strand of hair away from her face as he stroked her cheek. “I just wanted to make sure you knew that all of this means more to me than just being physical. Just because we started out with a threesome, doesn’t mean I see you as only a girl who does that.” He swallowed, wetting his lips. His eyes imploring her to understand his careful words. “I care about you, Bragnae.”
Wow. He was being honest and direct, and that was refreshing. “I didn’t think you wanted all of that.” She was stunned, still trying to wrap her mind around his professed feelings.
“That’s why I wanted to be clear about this because up until now, you might have thought that I only wanted to get into your pants. And that wasn’t true at all.” He leaned in a bit, staring deeply into her eyes. His hand still cupping her cheek.
Drake was always someone Bragnae could see herself with. He was kind, motivated, and down to earth. So many days had passed since they met that she wanted him to end the suspense and ask her out. So many times she wanted to feel his lips against hers. And when she finally did… when he held her in his big, strong arms, filling her up with undeniable pleasure, she crashed hard into him emotionally as well as physically.
“That’s what I’ve always wanted. Everything you just said.” She felt herself becoming gradually closer to him. Their faces mere inches apart.
He smiled. “Bragnae, I’d consider myself a lucky man if you’d let me be the one to give you what you wanted.” His eyes dropped to her lips as he whispered. “Will you let me do that?”
He had captivated her in every sense. His words surrounded her like a warm, cozy blanket. His gentle touch soothed her aching heart. His incredible scent intoxicated her. She knew then there were no games being played. He was genuine. He wanted her in every way, and she knew she couldn’t deny him.
Bragnae nodded. Her eyes locked on his mouth as he pulled her into a tender kiss. She sank into his soft lips, feeling the warmth and veracity of his affectionate gesture. Drake had kept a consistent dreamy pace that made the world seem to disappear around them. That was, until she heard the sound of plates being set on their table. They broke apart immediately. Feeling a bit embarrassed, Bragnae avoided eye contact with the waitress, smiling down at the table instead. Drake was an amazing kisser, and she couldn’t wait to experience that again.
“Enjoy your meal,” the waitress said before leaving them.
“Thank you,” Drake replied. He looked over at Bragnae, bringing her hand to his lips with a sweet kiss. He smiled and gave her a wink. She blushed as she straightened in her seat to begin eating.
After they finished eating and paying for their meal, Drake took Bragnae’s hand in his and walked out of the restaurant.
“Where’d you park?” He asked.
“Oh, my car’s being a little sketchy right now, so I just grabbed an Uber.”
“My truck is just down the street. Mind if I give you a lift back home?”
She grinned. “Not at all. Thank you.”
After a short walk, Drake opened the passenger door to his truck waiting for her to get into the cab before closing the door. Her heart swelled at his chivalry. This is what being treated with respect feels like. She was jubilant and filled with resonating peace. Walking over to the driver’s side, Drake climbed into the vehicle and started the engine.
As they started the short drive back to her apartment, he reached over to entwine his fingers with hers again.
“I can take a look at your car sometime, if you want,” he told her.
She loved the feeling of their hands combined. Reveled in it even. “I didn’t know you were a mechanic,” she teased.
He chuckled lightly. “I’m not, but I have some skills in that area. I’m pretty good with my hands.” He squeezed hers for emphasis.
She glanced at him, biting her lower lip. “Good to know.” Turning back to look at the street ahead, she smiled. The thought of his hands working magic on her body was thrilling. Bragnae could feel him looking at her, which made her blush even more.
Soon, they arrived at her place. He opened her door again, and she thanked him. They walked hand in hand up to her apartment, when Bragnae turned her back to the door to face him. She wanted to invite him in, but it was a school night, and she intended to not rush them along. Even though opposing thoughts were currently consuming her mind.
“I had a nice time tonight, Drake. Thank you for inviting me out.”
He casually moved in closer, not quite touching her. “Me too. I’m really looking forward to spending more time with you this way.”
The heat in his eyes mixed with sincerity drew her in immediately. Looping her arms around his neck, she stood on her toes to meet him with an eager kiss – the one she wanted to continue since dinner. His hands found her hips and migrated to the small of her back as he gradually pushed her against the door. She moaned in approval as Drake deepened the kiss by parting her lips with his tongue. Warmth started to build between her legs when his mouth moved more ardently with hers.
Lost in the moment, Bragnae suddenly felt the support against her back give way. She stumbled backwards a bit, but Drake caught her before she fell.
“Looks like the date went well,” Madeleine said from within the apartment.
Breathing heavily from being startled, Bragnae looked over her shoulder at her friend who was standing with a hand on her hip and a teasing smirk on her face.
“It was going well until you opened the door.” Half mocking, half serious, she turned back to Drake who just smiled. “I better call it a night.”
He nodded. “Okay. We should do something this weekend though. You can come over to my place. Maybe we can finish that movie.” He flashed a devilish grin.
“I’d like that.” Blatantly aware that Madeleine was still standing there watching them, she wasn’t sure if Drake wanted her to kiss him or not. Luckily he decided that for her by placing a sweet but brief kiss on her lips.
“I’ll call you. Goodnight ladies.”
Bragnae watched him walk down the sidewalk to his truck before heading inside.
“I take it he’s back in your good graces?” Madeleine asked.
Leaning back against the closed door with a dreamy smile on her face, she barely replied. “He sure is.”
~
It worked out that Bragnae was given Sunday night off from work. In an effort to spend more time with Drake without worrying about homework that was due by Monday, she got it finished ahead of time. She was due at his place by three o’clock. Excited to be embarking on a new adventure for herself, she couldn’t ignore the nervous feeling she had on her way over to his apartment. His shared apartment…with Leo.
It had been a full week, and she still hadn’t heard from him. Not that she expected to. What Madeleine said about him made sense even though she refused to believe it at first. She felt a connection between them – more than the physical. There was definitely something more. She was still confused, and admittedly still hurt by his actions, but she had to move on from that. It would be tough not to have the closure she desired, but she had no choice.
Bragnae hoped Leo wouldn’t be around, so she could relax and avoid the awkwardness that would certainly be present between them if they came face to face.
She had been to their place before a few times to hang out. It was smaller than hers and Maddie’s, and set up like a bachelor pad. Beer was always stocked in the fridge, paper plates and plastic utensils were used instead of real ones, and there was always some sort of clothing strewn about. She noticed Leo was more so the messy one. Drake wasn’t a clean freak, but he always seemed to have his things in order.
She knocked on the door, and soon Drake answered it.
“Hey, Bennett.” He smiled. “Come on in.”
As she stepped over the threshold, Drake pulled her into his arms and kissed her firmly. She leaned into him indulging in his lips. It was the sort of kiss that let her know he was happy to see her, and she loved that. When she pulled away, she looked up into his warm eyes feeling comfortable and content.
“Well, hello there.” She kissed him again.
“You want something to drink? Water? Beer?”
She giggled at his options. “Water is just fine. I have a feeling I’m going to need it if we keep kissing like that.”
“Water it is.” Smirking, he turned towards the kitchen. “I’ll grab this, and we can watch TV in my room.”
“Okay.” She walked further into his apartment, cautiously. She looked down the hallway and saw the door to Leo’s room was shut. He normally shut his door whether he was there or not, so she was still in the dark. She decided to wait there until Drake returned.
“Here you go,” he said, handing her the bottle of water. He had grabbed one for himself as well. Then, he led them to his bedroom.
Drake allowed her to step in first. It had a lot of gray tones. His royal purple hockey jersey was displayed over his desk chair, a hockey stick was propped up in the corner of his room, and his skates leaned against the door of his closet. He had a poster of The Rolling Stones on his wall, and another of Wayne Gretsky – ‘The Great One’ of professional hockey. Rock n’ Roll and hockey. Two of his favorite things. She liked that about him, plus enjoyed those things as well.
His queen sized bed was made, and it actually smelled good in his room. He hadn’t lit a candle or anything, but just his natural scent mixed with residual cologne collected in the air. It was comforting, much like it was when she had opportunities to nuzzle in close to him.
He sat down on the bed wearing a t-shirt with his hockey team logo on it, and athletic pants. She loved the casual look on him.
“Please join me,” he told her, waving his hand over his bed.
She removed her shoes and climbed towards the head of the bed where he was already propped up against the pillows with a remote in his hand. Bragnae settled in, leaving a few inches of space between them.
“So, you want to finish The Hangover, or find something else to watch?”
“We can finish the movie. It’s a good one.”
He pulled up Netflix on his 40 inch flat screen that was mounted on the wall, and navigated to the film. He fast forwarded it to the point where they had stopped it a week ago, and pressed play. Drake tossed the remote on the bed side table, and situated himself closer to Bragnae.
Their legs touched, which was already thrilling, but then he rested his hand on her thigh, folding his other arm behind his head. He was getting comfortable, so she decided she would too. Shifting a bit on her side, she curled up next to him, and leaned her head against his shoulder.
Even though they had once been far more intimate, for some reason now she felt a little awkward. She fidgeted with her hands, unsure of where to rest them before finally deciding to tuck them up against his side.
But then Drake shifted. “Here, let’s make this easier.” He moved to face her more with an arm behind her head and his other hand resting on her leg again. “Better?”
She smiled. “Yes. Thank you.”
They both turned to watch the movie, but after a minute or so Bragnae looked back at Drake. His side profile was just as stunning as his front. She admired his strong jaw line and longer brown hair that swept back casually, yet still looked like it was meant to be styled that way. She knew he didn’t fuss over his hair. He wasn’t the type of guy to care, but luckily for him his hair naturally looked good no matter what he did. Even when it was a sweaty mess when he took his helmet off after a hockey game, he still looked desirable. How was that fair?
He must have felt her gaze on him, so he turned to her again. “The movie is that way, Bennett,” he teased.
“Maybe I found something better than caught my attention.” A flirtatious grin appeared across her lips.
He gave her a heated look full of excitement. “Oh, so you want to add a little romance to this comedy, then?” He slid a hand to her side as he pressed his body against hers.
Bragnae scooted herself down a bit so she was laying flatter than before. “You could say that.” Cupping the back of his neck, she brought him down to her as they kissed through smiling lips. Her giggle instantly transformed into a moan when he readjusted to cover her body more with his. Their legs entwined. Their chests connected.
Drake’s fingers found the inch of bare skin between her waistband and shirt, and glided his calloused fingertips over her. His touch inspired goosebumps to prickle up throughout her body. And then, there was his tongue. Slow. Methodic. Sensual. He really did know how to use it in a way that made her melt.
She let her fingers dive into his chestnut locks before skimming over his impressive bicep. She squeezed his muscle, delighting in its firmness. Both of their breaths came fast as the passionate moment grew. After another moment, Drake slowed his kisses and pulled up.
He peered over her hungrily. “What do you want, Bragnae?”
She knew he was asking how far she wanted to go in that moment. Thankfully, he was letting her decide that today instead of halting them altogether. Although she ached for him to crawl inside her again, she didn’t want to rush things. She did that with Leo, and it didn’t turn out well. However, she figured she’d offer up a fun alternative.
“Show me what you can do with your hands, and then I’ll show you what I can do with mine.”
He looked at her another moment until the corners of his mouth curled up mischievously. “Okay. I can definitely work with that.” He bent down to capture her lips again. There was a renewed sense of anticipation now that they both knew the parameters.
Once they got back into the groove, Drake’s hand traveled beneath her shirt until he reached the curve of her breast. He massaged her as she exhaled whimpering moans. Her bra stood in his way, but it still felt nice to have him touch her there.
His hand gradually left her chest while he continued to adore her with his mouth. Her body trembled as his fingers dipped below the elastic of her pants, grazing over her mound until he located her clit. Even over her silky panties, she could feel every tantalizing circle he made around her sensitive parts. Her breath caught in her throat as he finally hit the position with his fingers that made her toes curl. He applied pressure and rubbed against her slowly at first.
Drake pulled up to watch her as he increased his speed. She already missed his lips, but now she was able to concentrate on the pleasure he was providing. The warmth was building fast. She clutched his arm, grabbing at the fabric of his shirt sleeve. Her breath quickened.
“Yes, right there,” she whispered desperately. Her eyes closed to help bring the moment closer. She bit her lip in anticipation, and then she found her release. Bragnae’s back arched, bringing her chin up and exposing her neck as she moaned satisfyingly.
Drake slowed his movements to help her ride out the wave, and then rested his hand against her heat as she grew silent. She exhaled shuddering breaths as she floated in the pleasure high he put her in. He bent down to brush his soft lips against her neck as she recovered from her orgasm.
When she relaxed her body again, she pulled him in for a tender kiss. His playful hand wasn’t finished yet, however. As they continued to kiss, he breached the top of her panty line, and sank his hand against her skin. She throbbed against him savoring the skin to skin contact. He had bypassed her swollen clit and instead circled her soaked entrance.
“I did tell you that I was good with my hands, didn’t I?” He asked confidently.
She exhaled a breathy giggle before focusing on his fingers again.
Drake groaned as he dipped his middle finger inside her. She lazily thrusted her hips to feel him more. After a few slow pumps, his finger dragged up to her clit again, using her own natural wetness as lubrication as he rubbed against her skin once more.
The sensitivity had lessened, so as he touched her now the residual pleasure from before pushed her closer to the edge. He had risen up again, letting his eyes rake over her body as he worked. She braced herself on his arm as her body writhed under his determined fondling. This time, the release unfolded rapidly, causing her head to jerk up as she reached the peak of the mountain.
Her cries this time were even louder than before – the blissful feeling was more intense as well. An involuntary smile came to her lips as she looked up at him.
“It’s such a turn on to watch you come,” he said with a smirk.
Feeling incredibly relaxed and satisfied, she giggled. “Well, thank you for making me do it twice. That was very generous of you.”
He slid his hand out of her panties and rested it on her hip. “I’ll make you come as often as you want me to. Seeing you enjoy that pleasure is worth any effort on my part.”
He had a way with words that made her swoon. She pulled him in for another kiss before gently pushing Drake to his back. She threw a leg over his, still on her side, running a hand against his solid chest. Desperate to see his chiseled physique again, she lifted his shirt to reveal his washboard abs.
“I love your muscles.” She outlined his abs with a single finger.
“That’s what working out and playing hockey will do to you.” His eyes followed her hand.
Bragnae peeked at the growing bulge beyond his waist. Grateful he was wearing pants that allowed her easy access, she let her hand slide teasingly slow until she reached his waistband. As she ran a finger beneath it and across his stomach, Drake’s abs flexed.
She locked her eyes with his and smiled before dipping below his pants and briefs to palm his smooth shaft that was hard and ready for her. She wrapped her delicate fingers around him watching his eyes grow darker and his mouth fall open as his breath hitched.
Bragnae pushed his pants down a bit, allowing his erection to spring up freely. He was long and thick – her fingers couldn’t quite reach around his circumference. And it was beautiful. His cock, as lengthy as it was, stood straight, and was perfectly shaped. She had heard stories from Maddie about some awful looking dicks, but the ones she had seen lately, both Leo and Drake’s, were breathtaking. Both by sight and by the way they felt inside her.
In an effort to get a better angle, Bragnae moved to straddle his thighs so she was perched right in front of his cock. She looked at Drake as she took ahold of him again, this time with both hands. His eyes flicked between hers and what she was doing.
With both hands wrapped around him, she began to slowly stroke his shaft up and then down. Drake let out a shuddering breath as she worked in a slight twist of her soft hands paying extra attention to the tip of him. Her long hair rested over one shoulder, falling in her face as she leaned in to increase her speed. She added a slight bounce of her body against his thighs to enhance the experience for him… and herself.
Judging by the tension in his legs, she could tell it felt good, but something inspired her to offer him more. She raised off his legs and scooted her body down a bit as she moved her face closer to his glorious cock. Her eyes locked with his and she saw excitement and desire, but most of all hope that she’d actually go forward on the path her head was taking.
She smiled before lowering her mouth around the tip of him. Still keeping an eye on his face, she watched as his head fell back and his eyes fluttered shut. She had to open her mouth extra wide to really take him in. Using her hands to help stroke him while her mouth and tongue focused on as much of his length as they could, she could hear him breathing heavier now.
“Fuck. You’re really good at that,” he moaned.
Appreciating the validation of her work, she became even more motivated to give him a good show. With her body in a Downward Dog position, her butt stood in the air while her head bobbed up and down. He completely filled her mouth. Her jaw was becoming tired, but she knew it wouldn’t last much longer. Drake had started to thrust his hips beneath her letting her know he was enjoying it.
“That’s it, Bragnae,” he panted. “I’m gonna come.”
Two seconds later, she felt the rush of his hot seed pouring into her mouth. She worked her lips around him until she felt the tension in his body dissipate. Taking every drop he gave her, she swallowed and wiped her mouth before sitting up to face him.
His head was back against the pillows, his eyes shut and the hint of a smile rested on his lips. “Jesus Christ. That felt amazing.” She grinned, tucking him back into his pants.
After another restful moment, his eyes found hers again. “No fair. I didn’t get to use my mouth and tongue.”
She shrugged with a playful smirk. “You gave me two. The least I could do was give you one really good one.”
“I’ll get you next time,” he said with a wink, sitting up to pull her into a crashing kiss. When she pulled away, a surprised expression highlighted her face. “What’s that look for?”
“I just didn’t think you’d want to kiss me after that.” Some of the guys she performed that on in the past had asked her to wash her mouth out first before they kissed again. It didn’t make her feel that great, but she kind of understood why. Although, it never bothered her when they’d want to kiss after reciprocating the effort.
“I’m not one of those assholes.” He stroked his thumb across her cheek. “Plus, there’s a reason why it’s called a job, Bragnae. It’s hard work, and I wanted you to know I appreciated it.”
Smiling, she nuzzled her face against his while he wrapped his arms around her. “Yeah, I’m pretty sure I almost unhinged my jaw trying to fit you in.”
Drake laughed. “Well, it worked. It felt incredible, and it was so hot watching you do it.”
“Good.” Feeling pleased with herself and content in his arms, she shifted her head to reach his lips again. She loved the way he kissed so passionately. Even when it was slow and soft, she could feel how heartfelt it was.
“Now, I’m hungry. Want to order Chinese for dinner?”
“Hell yeah!” She excitedly hopped off of him and the bed after he gave her a playful smack on her bottom.
They left his room and went to the kitchen. Drake led her to a drawer that housed menus from various restaurants nearby. Once he retrieved the one he wanted, he splayed the menu over the counter and allowed her to step up to view it.
Bragnae leaned against the counter’s edge looking through the numerous options on the Chinese restaurant’s menu. Drake stood behind her, affectionately keeping her in place with both hands braced on the counter. He was certainly tall enough to look over her shoulder to read at the same time. She liked the feeling of him standing so close and pressing into her. It sent tingles down her spine.
“What sounds good?” He asked, pulling her hair to one side, and laying gentle kisses on her exposed neck.
Her eyes fluttered a bit, and her knees grew weak, but despite the distraction, she steadied herself. “Fried rice is always a good choice.”
“Yeah?” He began to nip at her neck. “With chicken?”
“Mmhmm,” she replied lazily as he kissed the crevice between her neck and jaw.
“What else?”
Her breath quickened. She was enjoying the sensuous movement of his mouth against her skin too much to concentrate on the conversation. Overcome with the urge to kiss him, she spun around and seized his lips. Drake propped her up on the counter, and stood between her widened legs as they kissed more fervently.
“Hey, I got us more beer,” Leo spoke loudly into the apartment as he rounded the corner to the kitchen. “Oh, sorry, bro. I didn’t realize…” his voice trailed off.
Startled by the sound of his voice, Bragnae broke their kiss, and looked behind her to see Leo standing on the other side of the counter. Drake chuckled, but humor was the last thing on her mind. She slid off the counter and faced him. Drake stood behind her again like he did before.
Leo looked stunned. “Bragnae… hi.” It took a long moment before he finally peeled his eyes away from her and landed on Drake instead. “So, are you two a thing, now?” He watched carefully and waited for a response while slowly removing a beer from the case he had just placed on the counter.
Drake squeezed Bragnae’s arm prompting her to look up at him. He smiled and turned back to Leo. “Yeah, I’d say so. A new thing.”
Turning her attention back to Leo, she noticed the muscle in his jaw twitch at Drake’s reply.
Ringing came from Drake’s pocket suddenly, so he retrieved his phone. “It’s my coach. I’ve gotta take this.” He walked off towards the living room leaving Bragnae and Leo to continue staring each other down in the kitchen.
Leo twisted off the cap to the beer in his hand, and took a drink. There was something different in his eyes today compared to the last time she saw him. A week ago, he was avoidant, uncaring and somewhat callous. Now, she saw regret and maybe a little jealousy in his eyes.
Seeing him now made it hurt all over again. She didn’t get the closure she needed from him since he was the one who decided to abruptly end whatever it was that they had without her consent or acceptance. But not wanting him to see that, she decided to take control of the conversation.
“We were about to order Chinese. Do you want some?” Her eyes never left his.
He stood there in contemplative silence for another moment. “No, thanks.” Leo brought the case of beer over to the fridge. After closing the door, he hesitated and opened it again to grab two more beers. “I’m just going to hang out in my room.”
Without another look, he headed off down the hallway to his room, and shut the door behind him. Bragnae fumed inside. He was the one who decided not to hang out with her or call her anymore. So, why the hell was he being so standoffish? What right did he have to still be this self-important? He couldn’t even make small talk with her without running off like the immature little boy that he was.
With her starting to date Drake, she knew this wouldn’t be the last time she’d hang out in their apartment. And Leo would just have to get used to that. She would too, if she were being honest. They were friends before all of this, and now he ruined it. Standing with her back against the counter, she crossed her arms over her chest as she waited for Drake to be done with his phone call.
“Sorry, Bragnae. That was my hockey coach.” Drake set his phone down on the counter, and pulled her in for a sweet kiss, which lifted the raincloud that came in with Leo.
“What did he have to say?”
“He wants me to go to this hockey camp to get ready for the season. Its two weeks long, and about two hours from here.”
“Oh,” she replied. She was disappointed he’d have to be away so soon after they started dating. “When do you have to leave?”
“This Friday after school.”
With the hockey season starting up next month anyway, she figured he’d be busier. “Well, that sounds exciting for you. I’m glad you get to do it, but I’m kind of sad that you’ll be away those two weeks.”
He wrapped his arms tighter around her. “Me too. But we’ll make the most of it.”
As she embraced him with her cheek against his chest, Bragnae wondered how much she’d get to talk with Drake while he was away. She even considered driving there in between the weeks he was gone to hang out. Amidst all the positive and healthy plans running through her mind, she still couldn’t escape the awkward encounter with Leo, and trying to assess what it all meant.

Overlooked Texts, Overlooked Images (Part I): An Erasmian Album
Fifty-two discoveries from the BiblioPhilly project, No. 40/52
   Album of Engravings and Devotional Texts by Erasmus, Marco Girolamo Vida, and Prudentius, Philadelphia, Free Library of Philadelphia, Lewis E 179, fols. 46v–47r, Erasmus of Rotterdam, Prayer for Seious Illness; engraving, Christ breaking bread with the Apostles
Sixteenth-century books that combine manuscript text with engraved or woodcut images can sometimes fall through the cracks of scholarship. On account of their hybrid character, they are often neglected by manuscript specialists in favor of entirely hand-written books. At the same time, scholars of early printing, on the lookout for editions by recognizable publishers, tend to cast aside these complex combined works in the search for more easily classifiable items. However, over the past several decades these tendencies have started to change. Increasingly, scholars have taken on the complex interface of early printing and handwriting as a fascinating subject in and of itself.1
Still, the story of one neglected item, preserved in the collections of the Free Library of Philadelphia, perfectly illustrates the disciplinary pitfalls described above. Lewis E 179 is a modest book of 109 paper folios written in a non-professional, Northern European humanist hand, adorned with forty-five engravings illustrating the Life of Christ from the Annunciation through to the Last Judgment. Based on the texts and images, the book could be dated as early as the 1530s. However, the distinctive watermark visible on some of the book’s pages (with the help of transmitted light) was employed only in the 1550s and 1560s, in the Netherlands and Northeastern France.2 It provides a relatively late terminus post quem and a rough localization for the book’s place of origin.
   Lewis E 179, fol. 35r (detail of watermark visible with the aid of a light sheet); drawing of Briquet 9373 watermark from Briquet Online database
Evidence of subsequent provenance places the book in some important German collections of the early modern period. An early bookplate on verso of first flyleaf dated to 1661 indicates that the book was formerly in the possession of Joachim Enzmiler, Count of Windhag,3 while a second bookplate, from the eighteenth century, records the ownership of Eberhard von Kniestedt. Before joining the Lewis Collection, the book had been in the possession of the great German-Spanish-English bibliophile Henry Huth (1815–1878), who famously preferred intact and pristine copies to damaged books, qualifying the latter rather uncharitably as “the lepers of a library.” Huth spent a considerable amount of time in Hamburg, which may have provided him with access to this item. In both the posthumous 1880 catalogue of Huth’s collection, written by his son Alfred Henry Huth, as well as the 1911 catalogue of Alfred Henry’s collection, the book was described principally by means of its engravings.4
   Lewis E 179, flyleaf 1 verso, bookplate, Joachim Baron Windhag 1661; inside front cover, bookplate, Eberhard von Kniestedt
Since its acquisition by Lewis, the book had been summarily described in only two places: the catalogue of Lewis’ western manuscripts published by Wolf in 1937, and the de Ricci census.5 John Frederick Lewis, the Philadelphia bibliophile who had a penchant for oddities that could help illustrate the history of writing, evidently was not taken in by the widespread disinterest in this sort of book, even if those who catalogued his collection after his death did. Lewis liked “multimedia,” creations—he grangerized (adorned with extraneous material) dozens of his own modern reference books with pasted-down snippets and even full pages drawn from illuminated manuscripts. Lewis probably appreciated the book for its unusual amalgamation of print and script, not to mention its interesting original leather binding, with, on each side, a stamped center panel showing Christ triumphing over Death, with the initials HGV—perhaps those of the binder—, all set within blind-tooled, all’antica borders of scrollwork and portrait medallions.
   Lewis E 179, front cover; back cover
Looking more closely at the composition of Lewis E 179’s texts as part of the BiblioPhilly cataloguing process, I discovered that these consist of prayers and other devotional works by two important intellectual figures of the first half of the sixteenth century: Desiderius Erasmus and Marco Girolamo Vida. Interspersed as well are excerpts from the late-antique Christian apologist, Prudentius. These passages were copied by hand from editions that had been produced recently.
The prayers authored by Erasmus that have been copied into this book stem from three major sources. Eleven votive prayers are drawn from his Precationes aliquot novae, first published in 1535. These are interspersed throughout the work, diverging from their order in the 1535 edition. They consist of votive prayers for Receiving Communion, for Docility, for Penance, Against Temptation, for Thanksgiving in Victory, for Serious Illness, as well as prayers to the Virgin, to each of the three persons of the Trinity, and to Jesus as the son of the Virgin. Seven sections found in the second half of the book stem from Erasmus’ Precatio Dominica, a short work of seven prayers for the days of the week based on the seven parts of the Lord’s Prayer, first published by Froben in 1523. 6This work became immensely popular throughout Northern Europe and beyond, and within five years had been translated into German, English, Czech, and Spanish. Six sections, concentrated in the first half of the book, are excerpts from Erasmus’ paraphrases of Luke, Matthew, and John, each of which was published separately in the early 1520s.
Intercalated within the first half of the book are sections from the Christiad and four extracts from Prudentius’s Liber Cathemerion. The former is an epic poem first published in 1535 but written at the request of Leo X, which provides a Christian counterpart to Virgil’s Aeneid.7Its author, Girolamo Vida (ca. 1485–1566) was an Italian humanist, bishop, and celebrated poet during the early Counter-Reformation period.8 Works by the early Christian poet Prudentius, here represented by hymns for Epiphany, the feast of the Holy Innocents, for before meals, and for after meals, were appreciated by Erasmian humanists for their conflation of classical Latin forms with Christian motifs.9
There are other surviving manuscript compendia that contain assortments of Erasmus’ prayers, such as an unillustrated manual today in Brussels (Bibliothèque royale de Belgique, MS 5010).10 However, on the whole, such items remain understudied, not to mention un-digitized. Hopefully, the substantial community of Erasmus specialists will now be able to discover the intriguing Philadelphia volume and provide yet more information regarding its original context.
By pairing a unique selection of manuscript texts with an unusually extensive cycle of printed images, Lewis E 179 provides first-hand evidence for how these popular devotional texts were adapted and recombined by readers as the popularity of the traditional Book of Hours waned. The Prayer Book demonstrates how a new type of devotional manual could provide an idiosyncratic alternative to traditional forms in a period of religious foment. But what of the forty-five engravings that punctuate its pages, which remain unidentified? More will be said about those next week, when we will be joined by guest contributor Dr. Brooks Rich, Associate Curator of Old Master Prints at the National Gallery of Art and recent University of Pennsylvania graduate.

Tumblr media
It was the night before Christmas. Fairy lights twinkled merrily on many a window and the wind coming from the sea brought along a welcome chill in the air. Up the hill, the Royal Palace glittered: a bejewelled spectacle for the masses to marvel at. Inside the palace, the halls echoed with the combined sounds of many running feet, snatches of conversations and the tinkling of laughter.
The throne room was exquisitely decorated for the occasion. The room, made to look like a snowy landscape was decorated with centrepieces that glint in the light, fountains of champagne, silken curtains hanging on the walls and a string quartet that was stationed near one wall. The staff were at their designated places with the King and Queen and the little prince standing by the thrones, poised and ready to welcome their guests and start the gala.
Liam heard a sigh beside him. He turned and met his wife’s eyes. Cassie smirked and tilted her head towards a squirming Lucas. Sharing a fond look with Cassie, Liam knelt down and helped loosen up his son’s bow tie.
“Better?”
Lucas nodded then added, “How much longer, Dad?”
“Not too long now, dear.”
Lucas pouted, “Promise?”
Liam smiled. “Promise.”
He straightened up and took in the room one more time. Everything was in place. Liam felt a hand slip into his own. He turned and kissed Cassie’s hand, sharing another smile before they turned forward again. A beat passed.
The doors opened.
The guests entered, the music started, and the gala began.
As the nobles and other guests formed a line to greet the monarchs, Liam noticed a familiar face among the throng. It took a few minutes for the memories to resurface but recognition finally came along with wistfulness and a dawning sense of embarrassment.
It was Eira Blanchard in all her blonde-haired, eye-greyed glory, wearing an elegant green dress that showed off her slender frame. The diplomat’s daughter. A reminder of his life before Cassandra.
Beside him, his wife whispered, “Are you all right, love?”
Liam turned toward her and answered yes with a reassuring smile. He turned towards the line once more, physically there while his mind wandered off to the past and to a different party in another Christmas Eve.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart…
Seven years ago, Paris, France…
He found her inside the embassy’s sitting room. Sheathed in ivory, she seemed to glow amidst the dark wood that decorated the room. These last few days saw him trying to gather the courage to confess his feelings. To put into words just how much their time together meant to him. How she meant to him. 
As he walked into the room, taking care to make a noise to alert her of his presence, his mind wandered to his brother and friends and their reactions to what he was planning. He knew that they did not really think well of her. Leo thought her to be too self-constrained and Olivia thinks she’s too haughty. Maxwell added that she was too quiet while Drake thinks she’s boring. But Liam saw more than what was present in the surface. She was intelligent, ambitious yes, pragmatic too. But she was also kind and… and just perfect. She was the only one outside of his intimate circle that treated him as an equal. As a peer whose opinions matter. 
Someone who matters just as much as the Crown Prince. 
He knows that she saw him as more than just the quiet, dutiful spare. 
At the sound of him entering the room, Eira turned, the skirt of her gown following her graceful movements. For a moment he felt dazed. Here was someone who was fit to be a queen, with the world at her feet. She certainly deserves nothing less, and although he can’t give it to her, being just the second son, he can and will give her his heart anyway. If she’ll have it. 
Liam was shaken out of his thoughts when the first noble reached them. The night dragged on; the line moved steadily forward, bringing closer to where he and his family stood. He glanced at Cassandra, a question his eyes. She shook her head and smiled, taking a moment to squeeze his hand before turning to the next guest and engaging in small talk.
It all happened in a blur. One moment, Liam was talking to an ambassador, the next he was faced with wide grey eyes and an avalanche of memories. Ears burning, he nodded as she sank into a curtsy, ever the proper lady.  
She spoke, voice cool, light and airy; just like the snow that fell on the windowpanes that night, all those years ago. He responded with the proper replies, face blank and voice betraying nothing. Both of them adhering to the script that they had been taught with all their lives.
Beside him, he could hear Cassandra making small talk, being an excellent hostess, despite the fact that they had been standing there for nearly an hour. Instinctively, he put his hand on the small of her back, the gesture meaning to provide her with support. It ended up being a reassurance for him.
Everything will be all right…
----
Grey eyes flickered, looking between husband and wife and briefly meeting warm brown before looking down as she sank into another curtsy, this time taking her leave. The royal couple, tonight being the incarnation of poise and hospitality, waved her on with more pleasantries before turning and welcoming another guest.
She walked away, as she had done that day, as she had done time and time again. Forever chasing and never quite reaching. Her heart clenched, her chest tightening slightly. She looked back, despite herself. He was talking softly with his wife, one hand on the small of her back, the other holding his son. His queen smiled, her hands resting on her little bump.
He looks happy. 
Happier than he had been that night, or during the days she knew him. It was what he deserves, really. A home by the sea surrounded by family.
And yet…
Eira shook her head. Grabbing a flute of champagne, she wandered around the party feeling cold and empty amidst the revelry. Christmas had always been a melancholy time. Has been for years. Memories falling in place in her mind, recreating the way snow fell on the windowpanes in her apartment. Her biggest what-if being replayed in her mind, haunting her wherever she goes.
Seven years ago…
His confession still rang inside her mind. Last night had been more than she had hoped for. Eira could barely recall being as happy as she had been in that study, with the heat of the fire behind her and the warm brown of Liam’s eyes in front of her. Unbidden, words of acceptance spilt from her lips, her joy too much for one heart. He had taken her in his arms and spun her around, laughter and smiles shared between them. She could still see how his eyes lit up, could still feel the ghost of his lips on her forehead. His warm lips on hers. Soft, gentle and quivering into a smile. 
In the cold light of the morning, the envelope lay on her desk. The acceptance letter cool in her hands. Her life-long dreams finally in her grasp. Eira looked out the window. He sent her a bouquet of lilies. She laid it next to her vase full of poppies.
She knows what to do. What she must do. 
Eira could feel her heart break.
But the very next day, you gave it away
He avoided her like the plague throughout the night. It had started when she caught his eye as he was talking to a group of diplomats. Liam recognised the look in her eyes. Determination. For what, he did not know. A part of him does not want to know. He kept flitting in and out of groups keeping an eye out for Eira and ducking out whenever she came close. He felt silly doing it. It probably looked silly, judging by the confused looks that Cassandra kept on shooting him whenever he made his excuses.
Lucas, on the other hand, loved it. His son had taken to skipping away with him, giggling all the way. Liam always felt lighter during those moments. But it was nearly midnight and Lucas was already in bed, tucked in, safe and snug and so so loved.
Midnight saw him standing on the balcony. He had just finished a rather tedious conversation with some of the representatives in the foreign ministry and had needed a breather.
As he leaned his hands on the railings, he could hear snatches of conversations as voices from the ballroom carried to the balcony. He looked up. Spotlights moved in patterns across the sky, masking the stars. He allowed his posture to slip, his shoulders to release tension.
Just one more hour, he reminded himself. Then he and Cassie can finally make their excuses and retire for the night. Silently he went through a list in his mind. He had already asked the staff to draw a hot bath and requested a tray of her latest cravings to the kitchens. He just had to make sure to light the candles in the bathroom when they get back to their rooms and pamper his wife.
There was a shuffling noise on the other side of the balcony. Liam tensed. The hairs at the back of his neck stood up.
“Your Majesty.”
Eira Blanchard stood at the other side of the balcony, shadows blending into her green gown.
----
“My lady.” He inclined his head towards her. She returned his gesture before taking a few steps in his direction. Eira took in his appearance as she came closer. His hair was shorter, his stance more solid. More grounded. His eyes had hints of crinkles, a sure sign of someone always smiling.
Time’s been kind to you…
She also noticed the way his eyes flicked toward the door, his suddenly blank expression and the way he tensed. Her mind flashed back to the way he carried himself around his wife. She felt a weight drop to her stomach. But she still managed to straighten her back and arrange her face into something that resembles a smile. Taking a deep breath, she forged ahead.
“He looks like you…” she trailed off, unsure why she suddenly brought up this subject.
Liam’s stoic façade broke as confusion sank in. Eira could feel the corners of her lips twitch into a genuine smile. At least some things don’t change.
“Your son,” she clarified.
“Oh… uh—that’s kind of you to say,” Liam said, hands twitching. Eira looked down at her glass. She cast about for another way to keep the conversation going.
“Oh! I—ah, I’d like to offer congratulations as well.”
Liam’s smile was wider this time. “Thank you, Eira. I heard congratulations are in order for you as well. Your work in Africa was all Cassie could talk about last month.”
Eira flushed. “Thank you,” she murmured behind a growing smile. “It seems that I have a fan.”
Liam chuckled, his shoulders relaxing, eyes lighting up.
“She’s very passionate about these causes,” he said, visibly brightening up, “she’s already spearheaded several initiatives…”
Eira watched as Liam positively gushed about his wife, adoration clear on his voice and tone. Eira’s smile turned a touch melancholic. Something within her heart unclenched.
“It sounds like you’ve built a good life here,” she mused during a lull in the conversation.
“Seems that way, yes.”
“Are you hoping for another boy?” she asked, catching sight of the Queen as she made her rounds.
“A girl actually, although Lucas and Cassie are insisting it’s going to be another boy.”
“Hmm. I’m not sure the world could take another Liam.”
Liam laughed, the sound prompting her giggles as well.
----
Their laughter faded. A movement at the corner of his eye caught his attention. Liam turned and saw Cassandra in the middle of laughing with Hana and Maxwell. Still chuckling, she looked around and caught his eye. Cassie smiled and waved. Liam grinned and winked, his heart full.
“You should go,” Eira said softly.
“What about you?”
She shrugged and answered, “I think I’ll enjoy the sights for a little longer before I head out.”
“Of course.” Liam nodded.
Their eyes met. He offered her a soft smile. She answered with another, wistfulness tugging at its edges. He nodded to her once.
“Take care, Eira.” He murmured.
“You too, Liam.”
With one final smile, he turned and made his way back inside.
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
A/N: lemme know what you guys think!

charles lee ray
romance at it's finest
(not to steal my girl tiff's look but it has to be a chest tattoo of chucky's name, right?)
he will go feral
What more could you do for him? You'd uprooted your life and bounced from one run-down apartment to another, checking off the 50 states as you went.
A year went past in half a second and suddenly you were driving down another high-way, Chucky's clapped out BMW rattling as it always did. Soon enough, he pulled into a truck stop.
This one was one of the more populated ones you'd stopped at on this particular drive. That is to say, it was more than a trailer with a burger grill. It had a burger joint sure, but it also had a 7/11 and gas pumps.
It was then that you saw it, a sign point around the side of the 7/11. TATTOOS.
Tattoos? Tattoos.
"Can we stop here for a while?" Usually your stops were in and out deals. Grabbing what you needed from the store (if there was one) and using the restroom before hitting the road once more, on your way to god knows where because you suppose Chucky will be damned before telling you any of his plans.
Chucky looks at you, combing a hand through his (much to your annoyance) slightly unwashed hair. "I dunno, we should keep moving..."
"We've been driving for hours," you complain, checking your watch. "It's almost three in the morning, can't we stop, just for an hour? You should get some sleep."
Chucky wasn't the best driver even when he was 100% awake. The last thing he needed was to total his car after falling sleep at the wheel. He scowls but concedes, "Fine, but just an hour. You better wake me up."
"Sure thing," you lean over to kiss his cheek before getting out of the car but he turns around in his seat, facing the window and pulling the collar of his coat over his eyes.
You sigh. You can't tell if he's in a mood or just genuinely wants to sleep. Either way, you get out of the car, shutting the door as softly as possible and - - double checking that he isn't watching -- turning to follow the neon arrow that point around the 7/11.
As you stand in the parlour, the room hazy with smoke and the floor sticky with god-knpws-what, you realise this idea might have been floating around your mind for a while. You almost instantly know what you want, where you want it, you just know that it's going to drive Chucky crazy.
You finish with enough time to stop for snacks before going back to the car to wake Chuck up.
"Baby?" you shake his shoulder gently and he starts awake, grabbing your wrist tightly. "Hey, it's just me."
His eyes wide and piercing, he lets go of your wrist and turns back to sit up properly in the drivers seat. "You got me some red vines?"
You had, actually, but instead you say, "I got you something better."
His eyebrows raise and, even in the relative darkness of the car, you can see his eyes twinkle with something like annoyance, but you know there's a sense of intrigue in there, there always is with him. To curious for his own good, you think. "Oh yeah?"
"Yeah." You reach up and turn on the interior light.
He squints against it, but immediately pries his eyes back open when you pull your shirt up.
There, on your breast, is a red heart, sacred with it's dagger. Above it, in surprisingly neat script is one word. Chucky.
He doesn't speak for a moment, he simply looks at the tattoo, vision slightly following the rise and fall of your chest. He leans closer, breath ghosting over your nipple as he inspects the brand f his name.
"Well, well, well," he smirks, eyes finding yours. "Isn't that just something."
"You like it?" your voice is shakier than you meant it to be, and your chest heaves more with each tentative breath.
"Oh, I like," His fingers, clammy from the heat of the car, skim over your breast, careful to avoid the fresh tattoo.
"You mean it?"
"Do you?"
For a second you don't know what he means, until h's grabbing your wrist again, puling you over to him and you settle in his lap, knees planted either side of his hips.
Before you an lean back and hit the horn by accident, he fumbles for the lever and moves the driver's seat back, giving you enough room to rock steadily against him.
"Yeah," you reply, "I'm yours."
"Is that so?" His hands slip down your sides and settle on your hips, grinding you own against him.
"Forever," your fingers ghost over his name.
"Forever is a long time," his hands move once more and slip under your skirt, finding the waist band of your panties and tugging. They come down to your knees and you lift up enough to get them off you, settling back down.
"Forever and always," you insist, leaning in to finally kiss him. He grips your chin roughly, guiding you as he wants while you fumble with his belt.
Finally you get it open and, mouth not leaving his, your shaking thighs left you enough to take him.
You groan into the kiss and you feel him smile.
billy bibbit
this is what kills billy off
he loves you more than anything and when you show him the tasteful tattoo of his name on your wrist he just about faints
(fetch the smelling salts)
he loves it, is amazed you would do something so permanent for him
in return he shows you just how much he loves you *wink wink*
It took a while for the thought to even cross your mind.
There weren't many grand gestures involved in yours and Billy's relationship. No, no, it was much more about the little things. How he made you a cup of tea every morning and how you brought him home books from the second hand store and how you could sit on the couch and stroke his hair whist it poured with rain in the Oregon springtime.
But it had been years and you decide to up the ante for your "little gestures".
You find a nice place and go in on a whim, getting the tattoo then and there.
Billy. Written in neat script over the pulse point in your wrist.
When you get home you try to hide it as you put away the groceries that you had actually left the house for.
Billy is sat in the living room, reading. He read a lot.
"Hey," you start, falling onto the couch beside him.
He absently pulls you towards him, eyes still skimming over the page as he places a kiss to your temple. "A-Angel."
"I have something to show you," you half-whisper, an excited smirk pulling at your features.
He raises and eyebrow, the nervousness that inevitably rises in him at such an ominous comment being quelled by your smirk. "O-Oh yeah, what i-i-is it?"
Pulling your sleeve you, you hold your write out to him. The tattoo is still slightly red around the edges, but it's very clearly distinguishable.
His eyes widen, baby blues glimmering. He reaches for your wrist tentatively, like he might hurt you.
You meet him half way, laying your wrist in his palm and he marvels at the script, permanently etched into your skin.
"W-w-why did y-you get this?"
If it were anyone else, you'd be upset by the question, but not Billy. No, Billy was genuinely just trying to understand why you'd get his name, something linking you two together, forever on your perfect skin.
"Because I wanted to show you, show everyone, how much you mean to me," you reply, bringing your hand up to cup his cheek, looking into his watery eyes.
"I l-l-love you," his whispers, voice quiet and soft and so earnest you think you might start crying to.
"I love you more," you giggle, gesturing to your wrist and that draws a smile out of him.
"Nnno, you don't" he teases and leans in to kiss you. He taste like coffee and his mouth is hot against yours.
You feel yourself sinking back into the couch, your fingers that are tangled in Billy's sweater pull him down over you and he shifts, fitting perfectly between your thighs like you just know he was always meant to.
leo nova
domination and ownership is his thing
so if you get a tattoo of his name it is going to make him feel all sorts of things
which he will mask by being very smug and fucking you immediately
It's not his idea, necessarily, but you aren't 100% sure you would have thought of it otherwise.
He's thrusting into you hard, lips trailing from your jaw to your collarbone, tracing the line of fading hickeys that are already there. You feel his teeth and know he's going to leave fresh ones.
"Gotta make damn sure every knows who you belong to, don't I?" he says when you go to complain. "Gonna mark you up like this forever."
Okay, so maybe he didn't suggest it, but it was close to, and as you lie back in the tattooist chair, you smirk.
It takes so much will-power to keep him from finding his little surprise until it's healed; dodging him for almost a week and you're saved only by him having to leave town "on business" for a couple of weeks.
One night he calls late, saying he'll be home the next day and you spend the whole wait practically shaking with excitement.
By the time he gets home, you're so excited you can barely contain yourself as he empties his pockets, leaving a revolver on the coffee table and hanging his coat on the hook.
"Miss me?" he asks. He pulls you off the couch and into a kiss, one hand ghosting your throat, the other splayed over the small of your back.
"Always," you manage when he finally releases you. "And I have a present for you."
"For little ol' me?" he jokes, looking you up and down, hands drifting almost absentmindedly over you.
"Come with me," you tease, leading him to the bedroom.
He closes the door behind him and you don't hesitate in stripping off. You get down to your pantie sand stop, looking over at Leo. He's divested himself of his shirt, the gold of his necklace glimmering in the golden hour sun that spills through your bedroom curtains.
He approaches you, you retreat until the back of your knees hit the bed and you fall back onto it, him following you, the weight of his body pinning you.
You hands trail over the lithe muscles of his chest, gripping his arms as he kisses you again.
You can feel his hand inch lower, his thumb hooking into your wet panties and pulling them aside, enough to push into you then and there.
Freeing yourself from the kiss you whisper, barely catching your breath, "Wait, don't you want to see your present?"
"This ain't it," he smirks, though moves his hand away anyway.
You shake your head, hands leaving his skin to pull down the elastic of your underwear.
He looks down, between your flushed bodies and finally catches sight of it.
Just above your pubic bone is one word. LEO.
You swear you hear his breath hitch, and he looks up at you, eyes wide with surprise until a dirty smirk takes over his features.
"Oh, baby," His hand returns to your panties, this time pulling them swiftly down and you kick them away for him. His fingers brush over his name, a permeant mark on your skin. A brand of who exactly owns you. "I'm flattered."
"That all?" you chance.
His fingers stay hovering over the tattoo, put his thumb dips down, into your wetness and you gasp. It's barely been three weeks and you've missed him so fucking bad.
"You're a good girl, doing this for me," he leans up, breath hot by your ear as his fingers slip lower. "Knowing you're all mine."
jack dante
smug fucking bastard
there's no debate about tattoo location, it's going to be on your ass
wait a few weeks before showing him because he is gonna wanna palm it and you do not want his grubby hands on a fresh tattoo
Jack's birthday was coming up, or so he said, and you'd been wracking your brain for what to get him.
His interests were fairly obvious, his office being full to the brim with all the junk he liked to keep around.
But no, you wanted to get him something special. Interesting. Unbeatable.
It was a very stupid idea but you had nothing to lose, so with a few weeks until the big day, you book an appointment and give up any dignity you might have left in regards to Jack.
One ass tattoo later and you were questioning your choices, but when you look at it in the mirror you break into a smile. He's going to fucking love it.
Finally, the day arrives and it's been a real effort to keep Jack off you and preserve his birthday surprise. But, you did it.
So, when his hands are sliding up your thighs and beneath your skirt, you whisper, "You want your present now?"
"This isn't it?"
"Not quite," you smirk, pressing a kiss to his lips before you turn around in his grasp and, for once, bending yourself over his desk.
Automatically his hands move to push your skirt up to your waist, agile fingers hooking into your panties and pulling them down to your knees for ease of access. That's when he sees it. At the point where the curve of your ass meets your thigh. His name.
Peering over your shoulder you watch his face for a reaction. Eyes widen greedily and he licks his lips like the goddamn pervert that he is. A cold hands palms your ass and he hums in approval.
"Happy birthday, Jack."
He smiles, a smug, shit-eating grin. "All for me?"
"All for you."
His hands are cold as they palm the smooth flesh of your ass, his fingers gripping and clenching where his name marks your skin.
"All for me," he practically chortles.
Fast as anything his hand slides over you, thumb dipping just barely into you and you shiver.
His other hand retracts before a sharp smack hits your ass and he palms it once again, his name shifting and stretching as he pulls at your flesh.
His name. He looks you over, face slack with pleasure and anticipation and he knows he's in love.

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: marriage
marriage isn't for everyone but if you did tie the knot, there is no way it wouldn't be a wild ride with all of them, one way or another. warning for smut (mild).
charles lee ray
no one could ever accuse this man of being a romantic
(except he really, really is)
legally he doesn't care if you get married or not
but you suggest it first (not a proposal) and you both mutually agree to it
then he sort of proposes (with a ring and flowers) after you've already agreed
if you want a legal marriage it would have to be before any of his murders are he is known to the police
(he's already known for petty crime but getting married would really blow his cover if he's already a wanted murderer)
you go to the nearest courthouse and have a bare minimum ceremony
he wears the nicest suit he already owns
and you go out and get a white dress that you could wear again to a bar
you sign the papers
then you consummate your love in the ladies toilets
whether you go on honeymoon depends on how much money you have at the time
either you go to a tacky wedding motel or you stay in and don't leave the apartment for a week
either way you're having a lot of sex
like seriously
jack dante
it's hard work to get him to actually go through with the wedding
he is actually the one to propose to you
after sex of course
"babe, we should like, get hitched"
he means it, he does, but maybe in a more metaphorical way??
it takes some nagging but you finally get him to go down to the courthouse with you
there is definitely a legal/financial aspect of your marriage
like he may be the wild card employee but he gets paid ludicrously well for everything he contributes to the company (and to try and keep a little bit under control)
if something happened to him (and he has no doubt one day bob might just have him bumped off) he may as well give everything to you, there's no one else for it to go to
neither of you dress up for the ceremony
but you do buy some tacky bridal lingerie to wear underneath
another bare minimum ceremony
it's not your first rodeo doing it in a public restroom
it's almost romantic, a repeat of your first time
the white lacy panties are surprisingly very appreciated
you have to convince him to move back to his old apartment together now that you're married instead of hiding away at CHAANK
he honestly probably forgets you're even married until you bring it up
billy bibbit
he proposes to you
one day while you're at home on a sunday afternoon
lay together on the couch while you read
"h-hey, i h-h-have sssomething to a-ask you"
his stutters gets a tiny bit worse and you worry something is up
"l-l-listen, I-I rrreally love y-you a-a-a-and I-" he has to pause and collect himself
but you already know what he's going to ask and you can't keep from smiling
"w-will you m-m-mmmarry me?"
you throw your book aside and throw your arms around him
"yes! yes, of course I will billy!"
billy is a good christian boy so you have a good christian church wedding (unless you have other religious/secular preferences)
it's a very small wedding
only your favourite family members and closest friends come
same with billy
he feels incredibly guilty for not inviting his mother, but he hasn't seen her since he finally discharged himself from the hospital
you reassured him and remind him that this is the start of your lives together
he looks so dapper in his suit
you help him pick it out
he insists he doesn't want to see your dress until the big day
he cries when he sees you walk up the aisle
loves calling you his wife, and you calling him husband makes him feel wanted
puts your wedding photo in every room and carries it around in his wallet
sheriff brackett
he didn't expect he'd ever find someone he'd want to marry
(what with his last marriage ending the way it did)
when he realises he's truly in love with you, and you with him, he plans his proposal
it's nothing extravagant but it's absolutely perfect
you have a romantic dinner together and he does a whole speech about how much he loves you
and you see where it's going but you let him go on for a minute until you're like "do you want to ask me something?"
he flusters about it but is very cute and finally pops the question
"i - sweetie, i'd be honoured to make you my wife, will you marry me?"
you have a church wedding (unless you have other religious/secular preferences)
close family and friends only
cries when you walk down the aisle
annie gets very invested in helping with the planning and is probably more bothered about it than either of you are
you have a (very) classy dress
loves that he can call you his wife now !! the sheriff's wife !!
reception at your house, classic buffet
lowkey you both cannot wait untl everyone just leaves
*wink wink*
you do have a first dance in private though after everyone leaves
you're both soft and giggling and the song is a cheesy love song but it's perfect
your wedding night is the height of romance
your bridal lingerie really does it for him
what better start for your marriage than him making you cum so many times that you lose count?
doc cochran
you and doc didn't think you'd get married at all
neither of you felt the need to make anything official
you both consider yourself as his common law wife anyway
but something happens (either you get pregnant or some unrest with the camp politics makes the future seem uncertain) you decide you may as well tie the knot officially
there's no real proposal, he just sort of asks
you go to the Grand where E.B (being mayor) unfortunately has to officiate
you don't intend to invite anyone, saying it is no one elses business
but people catch wind (i.e. al, trixie and jane, merrick, maybe sol and seth) and basically invite themselves
you wear your best dress
and doc doesn't half scrub up well
Al invites you both back for a drink at the gem which you accept
("only one though, al" "sure, sure, you gotta get back home - the marriage bed is waiting - I understand")
the marriage bed is waiting though and you get kind of emotional when you go home together for the first time as husband and wife
funnily enough no one shows up at doc's that night for treatment and you have the whole night to yourselves
grima wormtongue
it takes you both a long time before you admit your feelings for each other and commit to having a relationship rather than a friends with benefits situation
marriages move fairly quickly in middle earth
no sooner are you engaged are you at the alter
wedding is moderately fancy because grima is doing pretty well being the king's adviser
few people actually show up who don't have to be there though because neither of you exactly have a lot of friends
grima almost clams up when it comes the ceremony because he doesnt want to say all this personal stuff about how much he loves you in front of other people
but you both get through it and finally, finally you are properly married
he's very emotional when you consummate your marriage but he tries to hide it
(but you know him too well)
tommy ludlow
he proposes one morning after sex
it's only just getting light and you both have to get up for work soon
you're still sweaty and his face is pressed into your neck
and in hushed tones you whisper back and forth
"will you marry me?"
it takes you a second to process what he said, "you wanna get married?"
"if you'll have me"
you kiss him and whisper "yes"
it's a church wedding for you and tommy (unless you have other religious/secular preferences)
he has a pretty big extended family and he has to invite them all
your dress and his suit are second hand
(because you're saving for better things)
laura takes a lot of photos for you
including the classic confetti toss one as you leave the church
takes you ages to comb all the confetti out of tommy's hair afterwards
cheesy first dance at the wedding reception
you can tell tommy is nervous so you joke around and make sure he doesn't take it too seriously
when you get home? goddamn you ride him like there's no tomorrow
(still in your wedding dress)
leo nova
it's go big or go home with him
80s fashion at its best
your dress is worth more than the rent on your old apartment
he doesn't see it before the wedding
you're surprised at how many traditions he sticks too despite him having the emotional range of a teaspoon
not many people get an invite to the ceremony but it's a wild after party
like a bunch of coked out 80s gangsters ?? amazing
the honeymoon is next level
you go to some tropical holiday resort (caribbean, thailand or spain) and it is all sun, sex and sangria for two whole weeks
tucker cleveland
didn't think he'd want to get married again
but in reality he just didn't like his first wife all that much
takes you out to dinner and proposes
when you say yes he is honestly relieved
but because he doesn't want to get emotional he calls over the waiter to get your free dessert
courthouse wedding
you do insist he wears a suit though and you buy a white dress
does the whole "just married" thing on the back of his truck
actually takes you on a honeymoon (sort of)
you go out of state and stay in a motel for a week
(vigorous sex ensues)
now you're married good and proper you can be his good little wifey

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: the sick fic
greetings readers !! i had a cold and laryngitis when I started writing this a few weeks ago and who doesn't love a self indulgent sick fic. tagging @theold-ultraviolence because she gave me an excuse to write this when i mentioned it in the tags a few weeks ago 💓. warning for mention of smut (with jack, who else) but tbh you're ill, no real sexy times are happening i'm sorry.
charles lee ray
pretends not to care but he does really
when he's ill he's out for the count and will hole up in bed until he's better but with you he insists you don't mope about
still lets you relax though
sick days are spent in front of the tv with soup and old schlocky horror movies
laughs his ass off if you're voice gets hoarse or you lose it altogether
but will sit for hours trying to decipher your hand gestures to be able to get you what you need or just for entertainment
might put off some business he has to do if you're feeling particularly rough, but don't expect his life to be totally on hold
jack dante
I'm sorry jack I love you but you're useless
he is literally the last person you'd want taking care of you
passes you cough syrup like it's whiskey around a campfire
will not stop drinking it even when you tell him off
honestly its not the worst drug he does so you just let it go and hope it doesn't become an issue that you have to deal with later on
if you throw up he is out
you're on your own
he does not do vomit
this shameless, horny bastard is willing to get sick in an effort to still fuck you
you politely turn him down despite his reassurances
("jack, you'll get sick and then i'll be the one having to take care of you" "i don't mind, you're good at taking care of me" "i mind!" "please, we don't even have to do mouth stuff if you really don't want")
Sheriff brackett
king of sick days
has a kid so knows the score
he's almost as good as doc
brings you soup and medicine and tea and anything else you might need
doesn't complain when you want to cuddle
even though your nose is running and you're gonna get him sick too
if he has to go to work he makes sure you're all set for the day and you will be a comfortable as possible until he gets home
you get better in like three days because the sheriff takes such good care of you
billy bibbit
a natural at looking after you
almost as good as the Sheriff
is willing to get sick with you if that's what it takes to be there for you
which is touching but you have to remind him that if he gets sick too, who is going to look after the both of you?
doesn't stop him from cuddling with you in bed anyway
he worries that maybe you'll get really sick so please reassure him that you just have a cold and it's nothing serious
if you get all feverish he just hold you tighter and strokes your hair to try and settle you
(and of course it does because billy's arms are the safest place™)
doc cochran
takes care of you like it's his job
because it literally is his job, he's the only doctor in town
(but also because he really, really loves you)
this man has not eaten a regular meal in his life but if your sick he will make sure you get three meals a day
you're surrounded by medicine so there is bound to be something he can fix you which will help your sinuses/headache/runny nose
has unending patience if you lose your voice and have to write things down for him
you know you should stay away from him so you offer to sleep on the cot in the surgery rather than in bed with him but he just gives you a look that says 'please stop being so silly'
doesn't like leaving you on your own so gets snippy when he's out on house calls
everyone in town knows when your sick because the doc tries to do everything as quickly as possible (while still doing a competent job) so he can get home to you
grima wormtongue
also not the best at looking after you but he's got the spirit
mostly tells you to rest and will have things brought to you by the house staff
no surprises here but he was pretty sickly as a child and as much as he wants to look after you, he tends to avoid illness like the plague (literally) these days
so although he will drop by to see you throughout the day, he is an and out as quickly as possible
he might stay if you sweet talk him
he's just about to leave again when you say "but my love, I miss you so when you leave"
you can see the conflict in his face as he stands at the door and deliberated if you're worth getting sick for
(of course you are)
tommy ludlow
tommy is an excellent nursemaid
never gets tired of looking after you
(no matter how many times he has to help you get undressed and redressed because your fever is playing havoc with your temperature)
when he was a kid his mom made the best chicken soup in nyc and he knows the recipe off by heart so will make a gallon of it to last the week
he's practically begging miss mars to give him time off work to take care of you
(which she allows)
plays music very quietly to help you sleep
leo nova
leo has a terrible bedside manner
expects you to get better spontaneously when he tells you to
he isn't a total meanie though and will bring home soup and pain killers and a cheesy VHS box set for you to watch
don't mention it to him or he'll never be nice again though
honestly he's bad at taking care of you just because he never gets sick
like ever
so he just doesn't really get what you're going through
tucker cleveland
tucker isn't the most openly sympathetic guy around
but he'll make sure you're okay and comfortable before he goes off to work for the day
and will sit with you when he gets home until you fall asleep
use him as a heater because he is very very warm
he' used to just soldiering on when he's sick and its been a long time since he's had to take care of anyone else so he has to get used to it

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: periods (smut)
got my period so dragged this out of my drafts because we all know that none of brad's characters would be turned off by a little menstruation. this part is specifically about period sex, part two will be fluff. WARNING for smut, periods and fem!gendered language the parts where i definitely went too far. more notes in tags.
charles lee ray
lives for it
he brings the idea up to you when you start a period one time
has the pretense that he wants to help your cramps but don't be fooled it's just another excuse to get his dick wet
blood really makes this man go feral and your period is no different
seriously
your sheets will be ruined
nothing makes him last like when you're on your period
will do you in every position
(every position)
has absolutely no problem going down on you, eats pussy like a starving man
blood on his hands, his face, your face, your tits, smeared between your thighs, coating his dick
jack dante
also goes a little crazy when you're on your period
doesn't know it helps with cramps but his enthusiasm makes up for it
if you're wearing a tampon as you're about to get busy, he will take it out for you (not to kink shame him but he is too into it)
draws the line at going down on you though
who'd have thought that the man who is hard pressed to take a shower once in a while would be squeamish about eating you out on your period?
bends you over his desk when you give him the go ahead
likes to watch as his dick gets covered in blood
and watches it dribble down your thighs
is more gentle afterwards than usual
i.e. will stay and "cuddle" for a while (like 5 minutes) and doesn't just leave you to do whatever he does
sheriff brackett
his "only" goal is to relieve your cramps
technically he brings it up because you mention you're on and therefore can't do it because guys think it's gross
"you know, sex can help with this sort of thing, and i'd be more than happy to help you out sweetie if you wanted me to"
slow
like really slow
wants you to be relaxed and also doesn't want to hurt you
gets overly protective
will put a towel down because he is sensible
tries not to get any blood on you
because he's a gentleman he wipes his fingers off on the towel before touching your face
missionary because he is soft and wants you to take care of you, leave it all to him
grima wormtongue
thinks period sex means you can't get pregnant (false)
science isn't too set in stone yet in middle earth i guess
also think it helps with cramps (true) so he can pretend he is being helpful but really he is just horny
good luck trying to wash his sheets afterwards because it will be you that has to sneakily wash them in private
missionary because he wants to see your legs spread
(definitely some primal fertility kink thing he has going on with you)
doc cochran
at last, a true man of science
you're the one who brings it up even though he already knows about the benefits re: cramps
but you have to bring up everything re: sex or else he's too polite to do it
when you do bring it up though he is straight on board with the whole thing
will finger you periodically throughout the day to help relieve cramps
which is hotter than it sounds
you lowkey love that he gets all "official doctors advice" on you about it
has you on his lap riding him so he can hold you close
and doesn't ruin the bed
he totally coddles you
"do you feel better now?" "sure i do, doc"
definitely not just your cramps that are better either
tommy ludlow
you're the one who brings it up to him saying that it helps with cramps
very happy you brought it up because he didn't want to be insensitive and ask to fuck while you were on
but you are more than up for it
which is good for him because he is always down to fuck
happy that there's not a week in the month that you two can't fuck
will put a towel down because he's not actually into the blood aspect
actually was sort of surprised a how good it felt when you were so much warmer and wetter
leo nova
doesn't have the pretense of helping with cramps because he is mean and doesn't care
like charles he just wants to get his dick wet
doesn't put a towel down but is still the one to complain that the sheets are ruined
will cuddle for a bit afterwards because he's not a total monster
secretly loves how much more sensitive you are
(makes you squeal)
"you're like a bitch in heat like this"
can do less work for more reward
tucker cleveland
doesn't have a thing for blood specifically
but does have a thing for hot, dirty sex
does manual labour for a living so not afraid of being sweaty/bloody/sticky
if he can get you wet and help you out with cramps then he is a happy man
pussy eating pro, especially when on your period when he can get you to make so many more noises
(will also take your tampon out himself because he says it gets you riled up, does more for him though if we're all honest though)

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: birthdays (fluff and smut)
requested by anon !! what do our beloveds do for your birthday (spoiler, they (pretty much) all spoil you) warning for smut. more notes in tags
charles lee ray
avoids his own birthday but goes all out for yours
buys (or steals, don't ask) you a lot of presents
i mean a lot !!
new tv (stolen)
a lot of lingerie (classy)
you have a very late night the night before (takes you to a very rough bar)
lazy morning
expect a very happy birthday fuck to start the day
doesn't make you breakfast because he hates cooking
but does go out for coffee and your takeout breakfast of choice to bring home for you
has a cake professionally made/decorated
(because you made one for his birthday)
the message on top is something v horny like "your pussy tastier than this"
or it's like one word like "whore <3"
either way it is both hilarious and embarrassing that some poor bakery worker had to frost those words
takes you out for dinner (very fancy restaurant)
or to the movies
another happy birthday fuck when you get home
("how old are you again? guess that's how many rounds we've gotta get through tonight")
billy bibbit
billy doesn't much like his own birthday (his mom was too overbearing for him to ever properly enjoy himself)
but he is great at organising yours
lazy morning
as many kisses as years you are old
makes you breakfast in bed because he is a sweetheart
he makes you a present !!
he's actually really good at drawing and he fills a notebook with little drawings and pictures
(drawings of you and of things you love and one at the end of himself that he's embarrassed about but you love it)
then immediately thinks it isn't good enough and that he should of just bought you something
but you kiss him and reassure him that it's beautiful
the best present you've ever been given
you stay in that night to cook dinner together
he's definitely made you a cake !!
is it very aesthetic and the frosting is your favourite colour/flavour
sitting outside to watch the sunset !!
sheriff brackett
does everything in his power to make the day extra special for you
(has told his deputy not to bother him unless something really important happens)
buys you a sentimental/thoughtful gift
like some fancy thing related to your favourite hobby (e.g. expensive art supplies if you're an artist, etc.)
breakfast in bed !!
in your underwear, sun coming in through the windows
definitely the kind of guy to get ballons and banners to decorate the house with
(which is embarrassing but also wholesome)
takes you out to dinner at a very tasteful restaurant
you are birthday girl and he won't let you forget it
he's set the bar pretty high sex wise so has to pull out all the stops to make it extra special
clear your diary for the next 3 to 5 hours
("daddy's allowed to treat the birthday girl")
jack dante
forgets your birthday every time
its not that he doesnt care
but he has a lot going on
and keeping track of time whilst he's down in that basement is easier said than done
when you remind him that it is your birthday he gets more excited than you
sends you out to get cake and jelly and ice cream
which you begrudgingly go and get because you really think he might cry if you dont
sex is abundant but when is it not with jack
as it is your birthday he might be kind enough to give you a reach around whilst he rails you
when he actually gets you a present
(usually like a week late)
its either something actually brilliant (like the latest futurist technology (idk what they had in fake-future-2003))
or its something real fucking sleazy like a weirdo dildo ("so you don't get lonely when i'm not around")
doc cochran
would rather die than celebrate his own birthday
but he wants you to be happy on yours
(and every day)
gets you the best present
(where from? he has his ways)
definitely like some first edition copy of a niche book you like (poe, shakespeare, homer, that kind of thing)
makes sure he has no scheduled visits that day and wants to spend as much time with you as possible
(will personally beat Al's ass if he sends for him for no reason)
you spend the day talking about this and that
and he reads to you from the books he got you because goddamn does he have a beautiful voice
gets jewel to bake you a cake !!
gives you some special loving on your special day
this man knows how to take his time
usually he is busy and feels like he doesn't pay enough attention to you
so he makes up for it ten fold on your birthday
grima wormtongue
for a long while your relationship is pretty casual so he doesnt even know when your birthday is
once he actually figures out when your birthday is he wants to do something special
even if he isn't the most... emotionally open person
grima has sticky fingers so he tends to be able to get a hold of things that others cant
gets you something exotic, something you might not of ever even seen before
(think, pineapples or some other middle earth equivalent delicacy)
you appreciate him going out of his way for you
makes an excuse for you to leave meduseld with him
you go up to the fields and look out at the horizon
tommy ludlow
you both bunk off work to spend the day together
he is excellent at buying present(s)
knows exactly what to get you because he's a good listener
definitely gets you a record or new clothes
neither of you have much money so all your plans are always simple
but tommy is the perfect person to just hang out with, he's so mellow when he's with you
has no plans for the day except letting you do whatever you want
you drive around the city
end up going by the natural history museum
(because both of you are actually secretly soft and love holding hands and wandering around the exhibits)
or the met (because you both know your fair share about art, working around fashion shoots all day)
that night you go to some shady dive bar
(and drink too much, if that is your thing)
tumbling in through your front door, you two were never going to make it to the bedroom
"happy birthday" he smirks against you as you both lay, tired, on the living room floor
leo nova
spends so much money on you
mostly because he likes to show off his money
("when can i treat my girl to all that she deserves if not on her birthday?")
but partly because gift giving is his love language, or at least the only way he feels comfortable showing that he cares
a new dress that costs more than the rent on your old apartment, shoes that cost twice as much
takes you to the fanciest restaurant possible
and then fucks you in the dirtiest way possible when you get home
and he can go all night long
*wink wink*
tucker cleveland
hasnt celebrated his own birthday in years so has kind of forgot that birthdays are a thing
remembers yours like 3 days before and kicks himself for leaving it so late to get you a present
(you help him out by giving hint to what you want in the run up to your birthday)
keeps the whole thing very lowkey
which you don't mind, you're not into big celebrations anyway
he does get you a gift in time, thanks to your hints
he's probably at work during the day
but after he gets home and you have dinner together, he hands over his present
although you sort of already knew what it'd be, its definitely the thought that counts with tucker
"and the best is yet to come, don't you worry" he says smiling
of course, the real present is him pounding you over the table
(because who has the time to go up to bed)

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: pregnancy (smut)
here it is, pregnancy part 2 !! had to think pretty hard about this one too because it wasnt something id considered before, but once again, please enjoy !! WARNING for smut (various), pregnancy, pregnancy sex, some mention of body image and fem!gendered terms. more notes in tags.
charles lee ray
oh boy
the second you get the a-okay from the doctor, prepare for a lot of sex
a lot
like seriously
you two are still at it right until the last few weeks when you draw the line saying it is too risky
chucky's enthusiasm alone could induce labour
you cant get more pregnant so he really goes for it
at first you carry on like normal
but once you have any visible changes (bump, tits getting bigger, etc.) all focus goes there
impossible for you to feel self-conscious about your changing body when chucky is all over you 24/7
claims he has to get all your fucking in now because you wont be able to do it for ages after the baby is born
(he's not wrong)
if you end up being overdue he immediately suggests sex
"they say it can induce labour right? and now the kids got too comfortable in there, there's no harm in trying"
*wink wink*
jack dante
even he didn't think he'd be this into pregnancy sex
as your bump gets bigger his hands are all over it
your tits get bigger
and because he's still a horrible pervert
you know he's all fucking over them
you have to remind him not to be so rough because he is very easily carried away
blowjobs are now his favourite thing
something about how he's already got you knocked up and yet you still want to blow him
totally a power play on his part
billy bibbit
you have to reassure him a lot that sex is still okay
he's so embarrassed when you specifically ask the doctor during an appointment if it is safe to still have sex
once he hears first hand that it is okay, he's totally up for it
very gentle
so gentle
boy he's so in love with you
when you start to show his hands are definitely cradling your belly
cockwarming !!
perfect way to be intimate whilst not exerting yourself
if you feel ugly and self-conscious he will kiss every inch of your body before making love to you to prove how amazing he thinks you look
acts like you don't have to reciprocate his affections
but you don't want your sex life to be all about you just because you're pregnant
you take time to remind him that you love him as much as he loves you
sheriff bracket
doesnt want to admit it but he is so into pregnancy sex
like he's got it bad for you
when your bump gets too big to do it missionary anymore he gets you to lie on your side
he definitely holds your bump
goes down on you even more often because you deserve to be treated like a princess
and with your growing bump it's a whole other level of pleasure when you just lie back and let him look after you
is the most understanding if you're not in the mood
(your body changing with pregnancy can make you feel distinctly un-sexy)
but he will tell you a million times a day how beautiful and gorgeous and stunning you are
which makes it very easy to let him get you off
doc cochran
could this man be any more sweet on you?
his doctorly know-how tells him it's okay to have sex but still is strangely tentative about it
"doc, you know better than anyone that it wont do no harm"
you eventually bring him around to the idea
you lie on your side and let him take care of you
mostly you just fool around rather than having penetrative sex
you're more than happy with just his fingers
(because we all know he's good with his hands)
he draws the line at doing pretty much anything in the third trimester though
grima wormtongue
damn
he's into it
seeing your bump grow with his child inside really gets him going
his libido is already sky high but now you can do it as much as you want and it wont change your situation (already pregnant)
you being pregnant is such a turn on he can't wait to get you pregnant again (and again)
(breeding kink who)
be ready to cum like a million times because he just wants to show his appreciation for all you're going through pregnancy wise
he fucks you in solidarity, obviously
if you ride him he will lose it
seeing you on top of him, swollen with his child?
oh boy, he will cum immediately
tommy ludlow
seeing as you have celebration sex pretty much right after you broke the news then he presumes sex is, in general, still on the cards
and he keeps rolling with it
does make sure that your doctor said it's okay though when you're a little further along
you're spending a lot of nights in on the couch (its not like you can go to bars anymore)
fooling around promptly ensues
sleeping gets more and more difficult as the months go by
and what else is there to do except fuck?
long lovemaking sessions with a record constantly playing
he cradles your bump and always has his hand between your legs even when he's fucking you
leo nova
may have already marked you as his by literally getting you pregnant but that wont stop him
as if your growing bump isn't evidence enough, hickeys galore !!
having his baby means your all his and he's going to show you why he's the only one you need
is practically on call 24/7 for you during the second trimester when your hormones go wild
happy to oblige your neediness
massive turn on for him that he can still make you beg for it even after he's bred you
tucker cleveland
unlocks a kink he didn't know he had
you're his good little wifey
fucks you from behind
there's something very primal about the whole thing that neither of you fully want to admit to
kisses on the back of your neck whilst he's pounding you
anything domestic will set him off now
you're doing housework? nope you're being carried to bed right. now.
cooking dinner? prepare to be bent over the counter
when he gets home from work he is immediately in the shower
(hopefully with you, at least in before you're too far along)
before railing you into the mattress

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: pregnancy (fluff part 2)
ahh I knew I would forget some major thing on the pregnancy headcanons post !! this one is mostly about... their reactions when they feel the baby kick !! as usual I hope you all enjoy this offering. all fluff, no warning 💗
charles lee ray
you're lay on the sofa with your head in his lap watching some terrible re-run on tv
the first kick startles you, until you realise what it was
your hand goes to your bump to see if it happens again
chucky notices your little movements
"what's got into you?"
(you refrain from saying "your baby", even if its true)
you feel another kick and you grab his hand, moving it over the right spot
"feel"
"what's wrong -" he cuts himself off when he feels the little kick beneath his hand "oh"
he always gets really quiet while he's feeling for kicks
which surprises you because who'd have thought charles ray was so sensitive
to be honest he just hasn't fully processed the situation
(and likely won't until the baby is born)
so these moments give him time to think
he doesn't mention it but after the first time his hands settle on your bump way more often
he's trying to feel for more kicks but doesn't want to seem soft
(you already know but spare him his pride)
jack dante
his detached curiosity isn't really solved by feeling tiny kicks but it does entertain him
you're eating dinner at like midnight in his office when you feel a jab
you put your hand over your bump and feel little feet kicking
he narrows his eyes at you, "what"
"baby's kicking" you look over at him "wanna feel?"
he perks up, discarding the take out carton he is eating from on his desk and coming over to you
for once he hands aren't immediately grabbing at you and you have to take them yourself, placing them over your bump
he smiles that sly smile of his when he feels movement
its definitely more of a source of entertainment than a bonding experience
but he seems to like it so every time the kicking starts you mention it and he comes running
sheriff bracket
he has been waiting the whole pregnancy to start feeling kicks
its another long, lazy night on the couch with his hands cradling your bump when he feels it
"sweetie, was that - ?"
you're so excited as you put your hand over his and wait for the next kick
"yeah, yeah i think it was"
theres another kick and you squeal a little bit with happiness
he gets so attached to the baby before its even born and feeling it kick around just boosts his Dad instincts
so proud
brags to anyone who will listen about for strong your little one is already
when he talks to the bump he tries to persuade the baby to kick
"c'mon, show daddy how strong you are"
you joke around about it "stop encouraging them, i'll never get any peace because they'll be trying to show off for you"
billy bibbit
you're stood in the kitchen washing up after dinner
he'd drying the dishes after you wash them when suddenly you feel it
he's worried something is wrong when you go still
"is s-s-ssomething the matter?"
"No, no, i think i felt a kick"
"r-really?"
you take his hands and put them over your bump, waiting for move movement
billy stays quiet
then he feels something !!
he cant even speak for a moment whilst the baby moves beneath his hands
cries a little bit
"billy, are you okay?"
"y-yeah, yeah i'm s-ssorry, i'mm j-just so hap-ppy"
wants to keep you close as much as possible so he can be there to feel the baby every time
doc cochran
you expect doc to be pretty professional about the whole thing
keeping track of when you feel movement and checking that the movement seems healthy
you'd felt movement before anyone could feel it from the outside
but one day you feel a kick that is stronger than the others
you immediately tell doc, who comes over from his desk and places a doctorly hand over the bit you point too
he's about to start asking genuine medical questions until he feels it
a tiny kick under his hand
he definitely cries
which surprises you and scares you a little
"is something wrong, doc?"
"no, no, nothings wrong - the babys just kicking"
you laugh, relieved "i know doc, i can feel it"
he didnt think he'd get so emotional about it, but thats his child you're carrying
feeling for the first time this life you created together just hits different for him
tries to pull himself together and be a good doctor (can he be anything else?)
but his sentimentality just proves he loves you
sometimes he's out on call when you feel kicks
you tell him about it all on the pretence that its for medical reasons but you know he just likes hearing about what the baby gets up to while he's out
grima wormtongue
his hands are on your bump 24/7 so it was impossible for him to miss the first kicks
goes a little bit crazy feeling the baby move
reminds him that you're carrying his child and this is all truly happening
now you're pregnant you spend a lot of time in yours and grima's quarters
grima dodges doing any of his duties to come back and see you throughout the day
"how is my sweet one"
(is he talking about you or the baby? definitely the baby, im sorry)
his hands are on you
and finally, one day he feels something
a kick
his eyes go wide and even he can't think of something to say
"it seems they're happy about their father's return, they've been slumbering all day"
you definitely play up the fact that the baby likes when grima is around
because you know he gets insecure about whether he'll be a good father
tommy ludlow
he's actually not around when the baby first kicks enough for anyone else to feel it
when he gets home you tell him and he's so annoyed with himself for missing it
"dont worry, tommy, they'll be more where that came from"
its the middle of the night when the kicks start again and it wakes you up
in the dark you shake tommy awake
he wakes with a start, thinking something is wrong
but you grab his hand an press it to your bump and he feels the kicks against his palm
he sits up in bed and with you leaning back against his chest
his arms are around you and he holds your bump
feeling the kicks until you both fall asleep again
leo nova
he's not the softest soon-to-be dad around
but when he first feels the baby kick that jump starts his Proud Dad emotions
he's away a lot so misses a lot of the movement
and he's emotionally repressed so doesn't ask about it as much as he should
but at night when you're asleep he puts his hands on your bump and wills the baby to kick for him while its just the two of them
tucker cleveland
another one who misses the first kicks
he's been at work all day and when he comes home you tell him
"guess what happened today"
"I don't know, what happened today"
"the little tyke started kicking"
pretends he isn't bothered that he wasn't there but is secretly gutted
he tries to nonchalantly keep his hands on your bump for the rest of the night to catch the next kick but the baby is messing with him apparently
he has to wait for the next day
you're in the shower the next morning when you feel movement
"tucker! come, quick!"
he's out of bed like a shot thinking you need help
he whips back the shower curtain and sees you stood with your hand over your bump
he realises what's going on and replaces your hand with his own
he feels tiny feet under his fingertips
"well, well, well, kiddo" he mumbles, "aren't you a strong little thing"

brad dourif characters x reader headcanons: pregnancy (angst)
well, well, well, this whole thing turned into something that i didn't expect. here we have some angsty headcanons for if pregnancy was not the desired result. i've only included the characters where i think there would be a genuine debate about whether to have a termination of not. big WARNING for abortion and other heavier themes. this is a pro-choice blog to the very end. please, please skip this if you don't feel comfortable with it, i want everyone to feel safe here.
charles lee ray
your period is late so you take a precautionary pregnancy test one morning
your heart stops when you see the lines on the positive result
you can't have kids
you and chucky didn't even really like kids
even if you did, now was not a good time to have a baby
you're barely scraping by on your wages
and chucky finds money from somewhere but its no where good
not to mention the fact that he has killed someone
he's not known to the police for that at least
you hesitate telling him
preparing yourself for when he inevitably starts raging about it
you expect him to blame you
("i'm pregnant, chucky" "you stupid bitch, what have you gone and done that for?")
you've already made up your mind that you need an abortion before you tell chucky
he's sat, with a coffee, reading the paper at the kitchen table
"chucky i need to tell you something"
he isn't really paying attention to you "what?"
"charles, look at me"
(you never call him charles)
when you tell him he doesnt say anything
and you don't know if its a good or a bad thing
eventually he just says "we can't keep it"
he asks if you want him to come with you
you say you dont mind but he choses to come anyway
he pays for it out of his secret cash stash because obviously neither of you have insurance
when you go to bed he's weirdly quiet
neither of you want kids but its strange thinking about the possibility
you almost think he'll change his mind but he doesnt (its for the best)
when you're ready to be intimate again (he asks a few times before you actually agree) he's surprised at how much more connected he feels to you
the whole thing effects him more than he ever says out loud, but it makes you realise that you're in this together
to the end
jack dante
there's no way you and jack could have a baby
i've said it once and i'll say it again: he's the poster child for arrested development
when you get the positive test you're more annoyed with yourself for getting pregnant than anything else
you have no idea what jack's reaction will be
he's never shown an interest in having kids before
and he's not exactly in the best place to be a World's Best Dad
you tell him you're pregnant one night while you're eating dinner
"why?"
not quite the response you were expecting but you roll with it
"because we have a lot of sex and you don't use condoms"
"it's mine?"
"obviously"
surprisingly enough he actually gives you a somewhat reasonable answer "i dont think i'm cut out for that kind responsibility"
but that doesn't last long
"you're gonna have to, you know, get rid of it"
he may not be the most sensitive but you understand his sentiment
you sort the whole thing out on your own because he wouldn't even know where to start
he's a lot more gentle with you for a while after
sheriff brackett
you're honestly surprised to find out you're pregnant
lee is actually the one to suggest you do a pregnancy test when you mention that your period is late
you thought you'd both been careful but seemingly something went wrong and here you are
he wouldn't ever suggest you get an abortion
but he's known since this relationship started that it could be a possibility
you're young and have plenty of time to have kids if you wanted them
part of his concern is that you're going to get bored of him and move on to someone 'more suitable'
so he doesn't want to tie you down with a baby
he sits you down at the kitchen table like the responsible adult he is and makes you have a proper conversation about it
if you choose to have an abortion he is totally supportive
tells you over and over that if you think its the right thing to do then it is the right thing to do
comes with you to the clinic and holds your hand the entire time
is so careful with you afterwards
constantly asks if you're okay and is at you beck and call
waits for you to initiate intimacy for the first time after because the last thing he wants to do if push you to do anything before you're ready
leo nova
leo has a lot going on
running a drug ring, evading cops, shooting rivals
the usual
he doesnt have time to have a baby
it isnt safe to have a baby
he'd be the most insistent about an abortion
and to be fair you agree with him
it wouldn't be sensible to have a baby in these circumstances
he isn't very involved and you go to the clinic alone
you can't really expect him to be loving and doting afterwards
but he does cancel his plans for the evening to be with you
its the first night in that you've had together for a while and it could have been under better circumstances
but he cares about you enough to do this
which is something
tucker cleveland
has a lot of vietnam trauma that can prevent him from connecting with people
took him a long time to be comfortable with you in a real relationship rather than just having casual sex
he's already been married and it didnt work out so he just sort of ruled out the possibility of kids
you get pregnant by accident and you do not know how to break it to him
you tell him whilst in bed one night
"tucker, listen, i need to tell you something"
he's almost asleep, but his heart rate spikes, this cant be good, "what is it?"
"i'm pregnant"
he both was and was not expecting that
"what do you want to do about it?"
"well, we havent really talked about it and i dont think you're - we're - ready for this"
you don't want him to feel like its all on him that you're thinking about abortion
it's your choice not to have a child until he is doing better with his mental healing
(if you ever have kids at all)
he drives you to the clinic and waits outside in his truck for you
he's surprisingly good at looking after you afterwards
tells you to sleep it off and brings painkillers and food up to you in bed
understands what it's like to be going through something physical that actually effects you mentally too
