interacting and writing with people here is a two way street and i’ve noticed a lot of the times that people who complain about nobody writing with them, are the ones not putting forth any effort to initiate nor maintain interactions. why is the burden put on someone to reply to your messages or content expeditiously if you do not do the same? i’m genuinely tired of the victim complex people set up for themselves here and i won’t entertain it anymore

You stood by the window in his luxurious hotel suite, gazing outside. Though the city below is alive with muted sounds—people stumbling out of bars, traffic gathering on the roads—the night feels silent from your perspective. None of it really registers as you’re lost in thought, your mind elsewhere. The room feels empty without him, but you know that will change soon.
The soft click of the door opening pulls you from your reverie, and as you turn, it’s as if the entire room suddenly comes to life. Your eyes lock onto him immediately. There he is—Lewis, exuding that effortless charisma, his tailored suit hugging his athletic build in all the right places.
“Hi, sweetheart,” he greets, his voice a smooth velvety drawl that sends shivers down your spine.
“Lewis,” you respond, your voice barely above a whisper, already breathless. It’s as if you hadn’t expected him to be there, yet you were undeniably waiting for his return.
You can feel your pulse racing as removes his blazer, and undoes a couple buttons of his dress shirt. He steps closer, his presence filling the space between you, making the room feel smaller. There’s an energy to him tonight, a tension that you can feel thrumming in the air. He closes the distance between you in a few confident strides, stopping just inches away from you. His gaze is piercing, studying you with an intensity that makes your knees feel weak.
“You’ve been thinking about me,” he murmurs, his tone low, almost predatory. It’s not a question—it’s a statement.
You can only nod, your voice caught in your throat. There’s no point in denying it; he always knows. He’s always had that effect on you.
“Good,” he says softly, reaching out to brush his fingers along your jawline, the touch is tender yet possessive. “Because I’ve been thinking about you too.”
The words sent a jolt of desire through you, pooling heat low in your belly. “You were?” You manage to ask, your voice barely steady.
Lewis raises an eyebrow, a look of disbelief crossing , but then his gaze darkens, and he tilts your chin up with a single finger, forcing you to meet his eyes.
“Of course, sweetheart,” he replies, his voice firm, as if it’s the most obvious thing in the world. “You’re always on my mind. You have no idea how tempted I was to leave the party, knowing you were here waiting for me.”
His words hang in the air, laden with unspoken desire. The thought of him, mingling with others while his mind was fixated on you, sends a thrill through your body. The way he looks at you now—like you’re the only thing that matters—makes your breath hitch.
“I couldn’t wait to get back to you,” he continues, his voice dipping lower. His fingers trail down from your chin to your throat, then lower, teasing the edge of your collarbone. “The whole time, all I could think about was being here with you, alone.”
“Tonight,” he murmurs, his voice wrapping around you like a velvet command, “you’re going to listen to every word I say. Understood?”
“Yes,” you breathe, the anticipation thrumming through you like a live wire, electrifying every nerve.
His eyes narrow slightly, and he doesn’t move, waiting, his silence expectant. The moment stretches, taut with tension, until his hand suddenly finds your nipple through the silk of your robe. He pinches it just hard enough to make you gasp, the sensation sharp, a clear punishment for forgetting something crucial.
“Yes, Sir,” you whisper, the words feeling both thrilling and dangerous on your tongue.
A satisfied smirk tugs at his lips, his eyes glinting with approval. “Good girl,” he purrs, and the praise sends a wave of heat through you, your body humming with need, your breath catching in your throat.
Lewis leans in, his lips brushing against your ear, his breath hot and teasing against your skin. “You know what I want, don’t you?”
“Yes, Sir,” you reply again, your voice quivering with a heady mix of arousal and nerves.
His hands slide down your sides, firm and possessive, claiming every inch of you. He guides you closer to the bed, his hands resting on your back, fingers splayed out, the warmth of his touch seeping through the thin silk of your robe.
When you reach the bed, Lewis turns you to face him, his tattooed hands deftly undoing the silk knot of your robe. The fabric parts, revealing the delicate lace lingerie beneath. His eyes darken with desire, his gaze devouring you as you shrug the robe off your shoulders, letting it fall to the floor in a silken pool at your feet.
Without a word, he guides you down, his hands firm on your shoulders as he lowers you to your knees in front of him. The plush carpet feels soft beneath you, grounding you as the world seems to narrow to just this moment, to just him.
Lewis sits on the edge of the bed, his eyes never leaving yours. He leans back slightly, his legs spreading just enough to give you space. The look on his face is pure authority mixed with a desire that makes your mouth go dry.
Eager to please him, you reach for the waistband of his pants. With careful precision, you undo the button, your fingers grazing his skin as you pull down the zipper. He lifts his hips as you tug the fabric down his legs, revealing the black boxers that cling to his body. Tossing the fabric aside, you gaze up at him and your lips part in awe. The sight of him, so powerful and commanding, makes your mouth water with anticipation.
You inch closer, your eyes still locked on his as you press a soft kiss to the bulge straining against his boxers. The warmth of him seeps through the fabric, and you can’t resist the urge to nuzzle against him. Your lips and nose brush against the outline of his cock as you shift your head slightly and close your eyes.
A low groan escapes him, and his fingers tighten in your hair, a silent encouragement that sends a thrill through you. Emboldened, you continue your exploration, mouthing at him through the thin fabric, feeling the heat and hardness beneath. The scent of him fills your senses, intoxicating and unmistakably him, and it makes you dizzy with desire.
You glance up at him, your eyes wide and filled with need, seeking his approval. He looks down at you with a smirk playing on his lips. "That's it," he murmurs, his voice a deep rumble that vibrates through you. "Show me how much you want it."
The praise sends a jolt of pleasure through you, and you respond by pressing your lips more firmly against him, your tongue darting out to taste him through the fabric. The texture of the cotton is soft against your lips, but you're craving more—craving the feel of him, bare and hot, in your mouth.
“Take them off,” he orders, his voice low and commanding.
“Yes, Sir,” you murmur, pressing a final kiss to his bulge before hooking your fingers in the waistband. Slowly peeling the fabric down, you feel his muscles tense beneath your touch as you free his cock.
Without hesitation, you lean in, taking him in your mouth. The heat of him against your tongue is intoxicating, his taste driving you wild. You work him slowly at first, savouring the way his grip tightens in your hair, the subtle groans of approval spurring you on.
His hips begin to move in time with your rhythm, his control slipping as you feel the tension build in his body. His deep, commanding voice cuts through the air as he moans your name, mingling it with that title you love to hear from him. "Just like that, sweetheart. Don't stop."
You nod slightly, your eyes never leaving his as you continue, the intensity between you growing with every passing second. His praise, his control, his approval—it all drives you, fuels your need to please him, to be his good girl. The words "Yes, Sir," become a mantra in your mind, guiding your every move as you push him closer to release.
When he finally reaches his climax, the sound of his deep, guttural moan sends a wave of satisfaction coursing through you.
You swallow every drop, feeling a sense of pride in knowing you've given him exactly what he wanted. As his breathing slows, he pulls you up onto his lap, his arms wrapping around you in a possessive embrace.
“You’ve been such a good girl for me,” he murmurs against your ear, his voice filled with warmth and satisfaction. “Putting my pleasure before your own.”
You shake your head, a slight smile on your face. “I like pleasing you, Sir.”
Lewis hums in approval, his hand finding its way to your cheek. He pulls you in for a kiss, his lips warm and demanding against yours. The kiss is slow at first, almost tender, but there’s an underlying hunger there, a promise of what’s to come. You melt into him, feeling his strength, his control, the way he guides you even in something as simple as a kiss.
When he finally pulls back, his thumb strokes your bottom lip. “You’ve been so patient, so good for me.”
His hands trail down your body, caressing your skin as if memorizing every curve, every dip. “I think it’s my turn to make you feel good, to take care of you.”
You shiver in anticipation as his hands move lower, slipping beneath the delicate lace of your lingerie. The fabric feels fragile under his touch, like it might tear at any moment, but he pauses, connecting his gaze with yours.
“What do you say?” He waits for your approval, and you obey instantly, nodding with your bottom lip trapped between your teeth.
“Yes, please, Sir,” you nearly whimper, causing a smirk to tug at his lips.
“That’s what I like to hear,” he murmurs, placing tender kisses down your throat, while his hand unhooks the clasp of your bra.

Chris Sturniolo x Fem!Reader
Genre - Fluff :)
Synopsis - Reader is a shy introverted person, she rarely adds on to convos. But when she finally tries to she’s ignored, but Chris is the one willing to listen to her.
I’m someone who doesn’t really talk. Not because I can’t, just because I choose not to. I just feel like I really have nothing to say. I just sit there and listen to others. It’s the way I prefer it.
I’ve been friends with the triplets for over 2 years now. But with them it’s a little different. I do talk when I’m around them, I just feel more comfortable. They always let me speak; unlike with big groups of people they tend to ignore me or just not care for what I have to say. And I guess I understand it. I mean I’m a quiet person, my voice in general is quiet. Why would anyone want to listen to what I have to say?
“N/n you ready to go?” Chris asks, calling me by my nickname.
“Uh yea I’m ready” I nervously respond. We were all going to some birthday party for one of the triplets friends. I don’t really know them but I was invited too and since the triplets are going I guess I am too.
“You ok?” Matt asks noticing my nerves.
“Yea why?” I reply trying to hide my emotions.
“No reason” He rubs my arm and walks away to the car.
I look around as we enter the house. It’s quite big, it’s filled with balloons and decorations all over. The neon lights making it hard to see the colours of things. It’s loud. Very loud. Too loud for my personal liking. Chris on the other hand is already talking to half of the people here. I’ve always admired him. The way he can just talk to everyone so easily is mind blowing to me. And everyone around him just seems to like his energy. I don’t understand how he does it. But I’m sure his looks have definitely something to do with it.
“Matt and I are gonna go look for Larray, are you ok staying with Chris or do you wanna come with us??” Nick asks me knowing I don’t like to be alone at parties.
“I can stay with Chris I don’t mind” I smile back as they nod and walk away.
“Chris?” I quietly say tapping his shoulder.
“Hm? You ok? Where’s Nick and Matt?” Chris asks starting to panic a little.
“I’m ok, I was just gonna ask you if I could stay with you because Matt and Nick went to look for Larray” I reply back, looking down at the floor intimidated by his stare.
“Of course you can stay with me. We’re all gonna go outside to talk come on” He smiles and I grab on to his arm as we move to the outside patio.
This is the part I hate the most. The talking. Makes me look like an idiot who can’t speak. Not to mention I look like a child holding on to Chris’s arm for dear life because I’m too scared to let go. He doesn’t seem to mind, but the stares other girls are giving me are telling me for some reason they mind.
“No yea I agree dude like I can’t believe she would do that to him”
“So what are you guys doing for summer? We should throw a big summer party and the beach”
“Did you guys hear about the tea with Kate and her boyfriend??”
I try and tune out all the different convos that have been happening. I have nothing to say about them. Until one. Kate is my best friend. I know everything that’s happening with her and her bf. Should I say something? I can’t. But I really want to. My mouth twitches. I want to talk I really want to.
“Y/n aren’t you like best friends with Kate?” Some girl asks me.
“I- I am yea” I stutter. Already growing nervous with all the eyes looking at me.
“So like is it true that she fucked another guy and cheated??” The girl asks smiling.
“What? No she didn’t” I reply quietly my hands sweating and slightly shaking. I feel Chris rub my arm, drawing little shapes with his fingers as if he’s telling me to relax.
“Yea she did I know she did” She says laughing.
“N-no that not what happened. It w-was the other way around” I stutter again, feeling embarrassed.
“Why do you stutter so much? Did the cat get your tongue?” She spits out giving me and nasty look.
Everyone laughed. Every single person there laughed. All looking at me judging me. I want to cry. There’s tears pricking at my eyes. My throat closes up. I hate this all I wanna leave.
“Dude what the fuck leave her alone” Chris raises his voice at the girl.
But before I can hear what that bitch has to say I get up and speed walk away to somewhere quiet.
Tears run down my face as I go upstairs and find an unlocked room. I go to the balcony and sit on the chair with my knees up to my chest. My heavy breathing filling up the room. How pathetic of me? Having a panic attack over talking?
“Oh baby” I hear a familiar voice say. I look up with tear filled eyes and see Chris approaching me with a small comforting smile on his pretty lips.
“C’mere” He opens his arms up to me inviting me into his warm embrace. Without a thought I wrap my arms around his torso and lay my head on his stomach since I’m still sitting down.
“It’s ok, you’re ok. Breathe for me yea? Nice and slow. Just like that pretty girl” The praise giving me butterflies as I follow his instructions which help me calm down.
He suddenly picks me up with ease and sits on the chair I was once on. I stare at him confused for a second; he chuckles and grabs my hips making me sit on his lap sideways. Chris then holds my head with one hand keeping it close to him, and rubs my back with the other hand.
“I’m listening ma” He smiles. I blush at the nickname and look down.
“No no none of that, don’t shy up on me” Chris laughs and tilts my chin up for me to look at him.
“Will you really listen or are you just saying that because I’m crying?” I say quietly as I sniffle and nuzzle my head into his neck.
“Of course I will listen, I want to hear your pretty voice” He rubs my knee in a comforting way while smiling down at me.
“Ok well first it’s not true what that girl said because you know Kate she wouldn’t do that” I started off.
Chris only stared at me in adoration with the biggest smile on his face. He’s the one that truly listen to me.
“But then she found his phone and saw the text!” I kept on going on about the story till the end of it.
“Well now I know the truth ma” He says using that nickname again.
“Mhm” I hum blushing because of the nickname.
“It’s cute when you blush after I call you ma” He laughs making me blush even harder.
“Come on let’s go find Nick and Matt so we can go home and watch a movie yea?”
I tried to do something diff and wrote about Chris cuz I just felt like it would be fun yk. So I’ll be doing fics about the Sturniolos too so pls pls request anything I’m in need of ideas I beg 😣🙏

Sebastian had gotten used to your little quirks. In fact, they had become part of the everyday charm that made being with you feel so special. But today, as he slithered back into the shop, he couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw you—sprawled out on the floor like a starfish. Your limbs stretched out from your body as you faced the ceiling.
“You know,” he said, leaning against the doorframe with a smirk, “most people use furniture for sitting.” There wasn't much furniture around but still, he held a point.
You tilted your head to look at him, a sheepish grin spreading across your face. “The floor is comfy,” you mumbled, stretching your arms and legs further out as if to emphasize your point.
Sebastian shook his head, amused. He crossed the room and stood over you, glancing down with his arms crossed. “You’re going to hurt your back lying like that, you know.”
You let out a content sigh, clearly unbothered. “Maybe, but the floor has this… grounding energy, you know? Plus, your tail was too far away.”
Sebastian’s tail, which had been draped lazily over the back of some boxes, twitched at your mention. “Ah, I see,” he said, shaking his head in mock exasperation. “My tail, the ultimate pillow.”
He knelt down beside you, his eyes softening as he took in the sight of you lying there, so completely at ease. He loved this about you—how you could find comfort in the simplest things, even if it involved odd habits like laying on the floor or curling up on his tail as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
But when you tried to sit up, you winced, a hand immediately flying to your lower back. “Ouch…”
“I warned you,” Sebastian said with a knowing smirk, though there was a flicker of concern in his voice. “That’s what happens when you lie like a starfish all day.” You groaned dramatically, rubbing at the sore spot. “Okay, fine. Maybe you were right this time.”
He rolled his eyes fondly and motioned for you to sit up properly. “Turn around. I’ll fix it.” You blinked up at him, surprised. “You’re going to give me a back massage?”
Sebastian grinned, already moving to sit behind you. “I’m not just a pretty face, you know.”
You laughed, but did as he asked, scooting forward and sitting cross-legged in front of him. His large hands rested on your shoulders, warm and reassuring, before they began to knead gently at the tight muscles in your back.
The moment his fingers pressed into your sore spots, you melted. “Oh my god,” you sighed, practically dissolving into a puddle. “Where did you learn to do this?”
“I’ve picked up a few things over the years,” he replied, his voice low and smooth. His hands worked skillfully, easing out the knots in your muscles with an expert touch. “It helps to have a partner who constantly abuses their back by lying in weird positions.”
You huffed a soft laugh, too relaxed to even argue. His fingers continued to work magic, the tension slowly melting away under his careful ministrations. Every press of his hands was firm but gentle, the perfect balance of pressure to coax your sore muscles into submission.
After a few minutes, you leaned back into him, letting your head fall onto his shoulder with a content sigh. “You’re a miracle worker.”
Sebastian chuckled, his tail curling around you in a lazy loop, as if claiming you in that moment. “I should charge for this,” he teased, though the warmth in his voice betrayed how much he enjoyed taking care of you.
You smirked, nuzzling your head against his neck. “Consider it part of the relationship benefits.”
He laughed softly, pressing a gentle kiss to the top of your head. “Fine, but only because it’s you.”
As the massage continued, you found yourself lulled into a state of pure bliss. His hands, the sound of his steady breathing, and the comforting warmth of his tail all combined to create a perfect cocoon of relaxation. It was these quiet, intimate moments that reminded you just how much you loved being with him.
When he finally stopped, you shifted slightly, leaning fully into his chest, your back no longer aching. “Thank you, Seb,” you murmured, looking up at him with a grateful smile.
He wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close as he rested his chin atop your head. “Anytime, starfish. Just… try to use the pile of blankets I made for you next time, yeah?”
You giggled, snuggling deeper into his embrace. “No promises.”
Sebastian sighed, but there was a soft smile on his lips. He might tease you about your quirky habits, but truthfully, he wouldn’t change a thing about you.
After all, he loved every bit of you—even if it meant occasional back massages and tail-pillow duty.
It had been a long and exhausting week since your last expedition through the facility. The oppressive darkness that always seemed to linger in every corner had become almost second nature to you, though it never made things easier. Your flashlight had finally given out, flickering and then dying as you wandered the dimly lit halls. Frustration welled up inside you as you muttered to yourself, “Where is it…” hoping to find a spare or the familiar vent.
You stumbled through the room, feeling blindly along the shelves when your foot caught on something. You lost your balance and fell forward, your hands instinctively bracing yourself against the cold metallic floor. But beneath your fingertips, the texture wasn’t the smooth, flat surface you expected—it was rough, almost scale-like.
Panic briefly shot through you before recognition dawned. It was Sebastian’s tail, coiled and unmoving, sticking out from the vent that lined the side of the room. Relief mixed with a bit of annoyance surged through you as you slowly stood up, dusting yourself off.
“Sebastian…” you whispered, shaking your head at the sight of him half-hidden in the vent. His tail, covered in dark, iridescent scales, looked like it had simply been forgotten, left there like an afterthought. What was he doing?
Curiosity getting the better of you, you made your way over to the vent and squeezed yourself through the narrow metallic shaft. The cool metal grazed your skin as you crawled in deeper, the dim glow of light further in indicating where Sebastian was. Finally, you reached him.
There he was—the local fishman, laying on the ground like a starfish, completely lost in his own world. His head rested on the floor, his usually sharp eyes closed as if he’d been overwhelmed by exhaustion. His long, elegant tail, which had tripped you moments ago, was sprawled lazily.
“Sebastian,” you called softly, crawling closer. He didn’t stir.
You crouched beside him, taking in the sight. There was something oddly peaceful about seeing him like this, his defenses down, his constant vigilance momentarily forgotten. The stress that so often marked his features was absent, replaced with an unexpected vulnerability. Even in his disheveled state, with his tail tangled awkwardly around him and his face half-buried in his arm, there was something captivating about him.
You reached out, hesitant, your hand hovering above his shoulder. You didn’t want to startle him, but something about the way he was sprawled out on the cold, hard floor made you want to offer some kind of comfort. “Sebastian,” you said again, a little louder this time.
His eyes fluttered open slowly, groggy and unfocused at first, before they finally landed on you. For a moment, he blinked in confusion, as if struggling to place where he was and why you were there. Then, with a sigh, he pushed himself up slightly, leaning against a box as he ran a hand through his tousled hair.
“What… what are you doing here?” he mumbled, his voice rough with sleep, though there was no hostility in it—just genuine confusion.
“I could ask you the same thing,” you replied, raising an eyebrow. “You’re half-hanging out of a vent. I tripped over your tail. Are you okay?”
He groaned softly, rubbing the back of his neck as if trying to work out a knot of tension. “I got curious about your weird habit and tried it out.”
You chuckled softly at that, sitting down beside him. “Sticking half out of the vent isn’t exactly the most comfortable for a nap.”
Instead of saying anything, he pulled you on top of him. You instantly melted into his chest, ready to relax with him.
Till he felt a tug on his tail…
It seems like a wall dweller fell over it.

Can i request a smut of obsessed hannibal x shy student reader ( im obsessed with him lately). He is obsessed with her while she has a small crush on him and then he invited her to her house and just cant get enough of her (if u know what i mean *wink wink*)
Tumblr media
A/N; Hi! Thank you for this request ;) I hope you like it.
Warnings; Smut! Sexual encounter, pussy eating etc.
Pairings; Hannibal x Y/N
Doctor Hannibal Lecter walked into his classroom with his leather bag, and his attitude. The dean of the university has been requesting, demanding to have him there and finally the dean put Will Graham on the job and Will convinced him to do it. Now Hannibal had three jobs; being a psychiatrist, helping the FBI and recently he has been teaching. Whenever he entered to give his lecture he would observe his students. Most of them were scared of him because he was a monster when he was grading papers, he never liked the way his students dressed, so informal and untidy. However, one of his students, Y/N, she always looked energetic, ready and put together. She had this type of feminine energy which made him navigate towards her, the perfume she wore filled his nostrils every time. The most attractive thing about her was that she would get so shy around him, red cheeks, always looking away whenever their eyes make contact. Hannibal was close to figuring her out, or so he thought. ‘’Hello.’’ He said with a dominant tone, he watched Y/N sitting straight, fixing her hair, ‘’Where did we left off last week?’’ he asked even though he knew where they were he was just checking to see if the students were interested, only Y/N replied. ‘’Thank you Ms. Y/L/N, shall we continue?’’
The rest of the class was as usual, he gave his presentation, executed swiftly, watched Y/N take notes, she looked adorable when she was focused on something. When he was finished he had a strange thought, his fox like mind was moving at a speed which he wasn’t used to, he waited for other students to leave the room so that he could be alone with her. ‘’Ms. Y/L/N,’’ she lifted her head to look, she was startled because a second ago he was at his desk, now he was right in front of her, ‘’Yes Doctor Lecter?’’ she said kindly. ‘’I’ve realized that you are quite interested in what I have to say about this lecture, would you like to come over to my home and discuss the upcoming topics? I want to feed your hunger for knowledge.’’ His hands were in his pockets, never loosing eye contact, he watched her go red with his last sentence.
‘’I- I would love that Doctor Lecter.’’
Y/N and also other students knew Doctor Lecter’s infamous dinner parties, she always imagined to be invited by him, just to see how he entertains his guests, also to be near him. Yes, she had a small crush but so did everyone. He was a brilliant man with great knowledge of his field and he was so polite to her all the time. Last week he brought coffee just for her, the other week she couldn’t make it to the lecture because she was extremely ill and Doctor Lecter sent her that weeks notes. She thought He does this to every student.. oh how wrong she was.
That evening she dressed to impress, black dress with a smooth make-up and high heels, when Hannibal opened the door in his expensive suit she realized she dressed right for the dinner.
Hannibal’s maroon eyes roamed over on her body, ‘’A work of art,’’ he thought ‘’all for me’’
‘’Please, come in. I must say, you look ravishing tonight.’’ Y/N tried to hide her face as she walked inside.
She knew he was rich but damn, his house was something else. He had a dark taste in colors and art, she found herself looking at the painting on the walls, as if she was at a museum. ‘’I assume you’re a fan of fine art?’’
He gave her a glass of red wine before dinner, ‘’Yes, I often visit art galleries and museums. I’m in awe of what people can do with their hands and imagination.’’ Hannibal lifted his eyebrow with a smirk look on his face, ‘’Shall we go to the dining room. Dinner awaits us.’’
He guided her by placing his large hand on the small of her back, she felt her heart at her throat.
The food was placed elegantly on the large table, the fireplace was lit, it gave a warm atmosphere to the place but she could feel the tension hanging in the air. Hannibal, as a gentleman, pulled her chair for her, she thanked him and sat. 
The dinner conversation was casual,  they talked about the university and classes, she was curious of his work with the FBI so Hannibal explained it generously. He usually had his dinner alone by the fireplace but having a company wasn’t so bad, he could feel the feeling of obsession rising from the back of his dark mind to the surface, it happened before and it didn’t end well. But maybe this time…
Y/n didn’t know exactly when and how she ended up in this position but she wasn’t complaining when Hannibal’s thick fingers found her wet clit and started to gently rub it. She was on top of the table, legs spread and Hannibal between them. His smug smile and his eyes will always be printed in her mind.
‘’Have you been wet like this during the dinner darling? If I knew… I wouldn’t have waited so long.’’ And she whined in pleasure because he started to finger her slowly, it was too slow for her liking. This pent up tension between them had to explode tonight, otherwise she felt like she was going to die.
He knelt to give her soft lips a kiss, which turned into a long make out session, she cupped his shaven cheeks with her hands, feeling his skin, his free hand went to squeeze her neck, he wasn’t rough but it wasn’t gentle either. They locked eyes, ‘’Let me taste you princess.’’ And with that he knelt on his knees and lifted her skirts. She had black lacy panties, he didn’t take them off just pushed them aside and started to give her small kisses, not there but her inner thighs. His slowness and the grip he had on her was driving her mad. ‘’Hannibal,’’ she said panting, ‘’please-‘’ he stopped and looked up, ‘’Please what princess?’’
He could see her cheeks, her parted lips and that expression her pretty face, she looked as if she was under a trance, a trance which Hannibal put on her. ‘’Use your words.’’ He demanded. He was certain that if she kept silent he wouldn’t move a muscle. ‘’Please eat me, use me.. I’m all yours.’’
A hungry smile planted on his dark face, ‘’As you wish princess.’’ And he dived into her treasure.
Hannibal had a taste for finer things in life, as soon as he got that intimate, warm taste of her he knew that he made no mistake in letting her into his space. She was so sweet and tasty, so soft and the sounds she made…
Even though she was wet Hannibal spit on her and also started to play with her with his fingers.
Y/N couldn’t believe her situation right now, her professor was eating her out at his home. Well, not like she didn’t have dream of it, but she never thought it would be this good. His tongue was skilled, his fingers hit the right spot.
Hannibal Lecter, even though he didn’t want to admit it, he too had dreams of her frequently. While he was treating a patient or giving his lectures he often thought of her, bent over on his table or on his kitchen counter. He pulled away from her, which made her whine in need. He pulled down his pants because he couldn’t wait anymore, he had to be buried in her sweet, juicy core.
He wrapped his dick and buried himself inside her fully, which made her freeze, ‘’Relax,’’ he knelt to give her a long kiss, ‘’I’m here.’’ They locked eyes as he started to move in and out.
''You like that princess? Look at you, legs spread for your professor. Such a whore.'' His shameless words and his pace made her legs shake in pleasure, Hannibal was rough with her hold on her this time, his hand chocked her throat and she saw stars.
Her body was moving with his fast speed, legs warpped around his waist, as she came undone she screamed his name over and over again.
''Now,'' his movements stopped slowly, ''You belong to me.''

Training Chaos
X Men Masterlist
Tumblr media
It’s a quiet afternoon at the School. Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr are standing in the large training hall. Both are focused on training their powers or at least trying to. But as soon as Y/N enter the room, you know that focus won’t last long.
Charles stands upright with his arms crossed in front of his chest, while Erik stands next to him with a skeptical expression. They both look serious, but you know them well enough to understand that they’re quite easy to tease behind that façade. And that’s exactly what you’re planning to do today.
"Hey, guys," you call out with a mischievous grin as you close the door behind you. "Who slept upstairs last night? Or did you switch again?"
Charles’ eyebrow twitches slightly, but he holds back and replies calmly, "Y/N, we’re trying to train here. We should—"
"Train?" You interrupt him, your gaze deliberately wandering over his body. "So that’s what you call it? That explains why Erik always looks so… tense." You wink at Erik, who exhales deeply as if trying to maintain his patience.
"Y/N," Erik says calmly, though there's an undercurrent of humor he can’t completely suppress. "If you’re going to distract us, at least try to do it with some class."
"Class?" You laugh softly and move closer to him. "Oh, Erik, I thought you liked direct approaches. You know, how… ‘specific’ I can be." Your finger lightly trails over his chest as you circle him, feeling his muscles tense slightly.
Charles clears his throat, trying to regain control. "Y/N, we really have work to do. It would be… better if you—"
"Charles, Charles, Charles…" You slowly move toward him, placing a hand on his shoulder and looking deeply into his eyes. "I thought you liked it when I… challenge you." Your tone is deliberately ambiguous, and you see his eyes flicker before he regains his composure.
But before Charles can respond, the door suddenly opens. Wade Wilson—Deadpool—bursts in, wearing his typical red and black suit, and his face lights up as he sees you, Charles, and Erik.
"Ohhh, jackpot!" he exclaims loudly, theatrically rubbing his hands together. "I was actually just looking to mess with Logan, but THIS? It’s like Christmas and Valentine’s Day all rolled into one!"
You grin at Wade and make a theatrical bow. "Wade! You’ve come at just the right time. I’m having fun throwing Charles and Erik off balance a bit. Want to watch?"
Wade promptly sits on a bench, propping his chin on his hand as if he’s at a show. "Of course, Darling! You know I love drama. So, what did I miss? Any hot comments about Xavier’s telepathic ‘abilities’?"
You throw Wade an amused grin, then turn back to Charles, whose face shows a hint of embarrassment despite his usual composure. "Oh, Wade, you have no idea. Charles here isn’t just good at reading minds; he also… well, let’s just say he knows how to twist someone’s brain in other ways."
Charles clears his throat again, this time a bit louder, trying not to react to your cheeky grin. "Y/N, I really think that—"
"What? That I talk too much?" You lean closer to him, almost brushing your lips against his ear. "Or is it that you just have a hard time focusing on other things when I’m around?" You playfully slide your hand along his side, and though Charles remains outwardly calm, you feel his breath catch for a moment.
Erik, who has been trying to stay serious, finally shakes his head and lets out a soft laugh. "You’re driving him crazy, Y/N."
"Oh, Erik, you know that’s nothing new." You give him a meaningful look. "But don’t worry, I’ve got enough energy to throw you off balance too. We all know how much you like to keep control… at least most of the time."
Wade claps his hands, thrilled by the dynamic unfolding before him. "This is better than any soap opera! So, Charles, when are you finally going to let her have at it? I mean, we all know you’re just trying to look professional."
Charles sighs, but this time he can’t hide a slight smile. "Wade, if you only came to stir up trouble, then—"
"Trouble?!" Wade jumps up and dramatically approaches Charles. "Darling, I LIVE for trouble! But honestly, what’s happening here is the real reason I’m here. I mean, three sexy mutants pushing each other to the edge of insanity? I should have brought popcorn!"
Erik, who has been silently watching, steps forward and crosses his arms, his eyes on you. "Maybe we should kick Y/N out of the training hall if she can’t behave."
You grin at Erik, moving closer until you can feel his breath. "Oh, I can behave… but you know you secretly enjoy it when I don’t." You let your hand glide lightly along his arm. "And honestly, Erik, you don’t mind giving up control every now and then. At least sometimes."
Erik raises his eyebrows slightly, but the smile on his lips shows that you’re right. "Maybe you should focus on what you really want."
"Oh, I know exactly what I want." Your gaze shifts between Erik and Charles. "Two of the most powerful men I know… and neither of you can resist me."
Wade interrupts your playful banter with an amused laugh. "Wow, Y/N, I’m really impressed. You manage to drive two guys crazy at the same time. Respect!"
Charles sighs deeply and puts his hands on his hips. "I think we should end the training for today. It seems someone has already caused enough disruption."
You wink at him and back toward the door. "Disruption? Oh, Charles, that was just the beginning. But you know where to find me if you need more."
With a cheeky grin, you leave the training hall while Wade, Erik, and Charles watch you go. Wade calls after you, "You’re my role model, Y/N! I could learn a lot from you!"
Erik just shakes his head, while Charles shows a gentle smile that expresses both affection and amusement. Despite all your teasing and cheeky remarks, they both know that you have their hearts as firmly in your grasp as they have yours.
And so, the unusual trio remains intact, in a strange but beautiful balance of love, chaos, and a bit of madness.

Can you make a drabble where the reader asks Arthur for advice? The reader went through a difficult time and she would like to ask Arthur for help. You can do it platonically or romantically, I'd just like a little fluff with angst.
⋆Confide in Me
Tumblr media Tumblr media
thank u anon. i am so sorry that i got back this really late, its been a whirlwind of things.
warnings: nun much just fluff and smidge of angst.
Lately you’d been down. Moping around camp and hardly carrying your own weight, so you were having a hard time needless to say.
Barley finishing your chores, your mind was filled with the negativity energy that clouded your judgement. Finding no time to be alone or without your thoughts for even a moment.
Nobody had noticed you and how you carried yourself for the last few days, well, most people in the gang had been out and about the land, hunting — robbing, stealing. Whatever they did outside of camp.
It felt so lonely but crowded at the same time, like you were a ghost in a room full of people.
Your life had been characterized by an overwhelming desire to escape, but a lack of direction harbored you. From your childhood till now, you wanted to leave, find a home. And even around these people who treated you so well, you felt lost. Arthur had tried talking to you, but you quickly ended it, shutting down any opportunity for him to ask if you were okay.
Arthur, had just came back from a hunting trip with the Charles, bringing back 2 deer carcasses.
You were sitting on a flipped over crate, which created something like a seat, which wasn’t to your comfort but you didn’t want to sit on the ground. You needed some kind of break, maybe even someone to confide in.
Arthur was at his tent, moving some stuff around, you looked at him, quickly looking away when his gaze turned back to you. A moment passed by and he kneeled next to you.
“Hey love,” he said, lowering his head to look at you, your gaze was locked to the floor and the blades of grass surrounding. Though it was hot out, the breeze felt nice.
You chose your words, and replied back. “Hi,” you said, barely audible, he had to strain to hear you.
“You doin’ alright there?” He said, still kneeling next you. You looked at him, you nodded, then took it back, shaking your head, tears threatening your eyes. His face contorted into a more worried expression, his hand went to your thigh. “Hey — what’s wrong?” He’d sensed something was up, the way you were hardly talking for the past few days, just finishing up chores. Which you didn’t like to do, but it was your distraction.
“I’ve…” You started, then retired as you could hardly find the words to express what you had been feeling for the longest. You and Arthur were no strangers, you knew him well and he knew you very well, and how he loves you is for eternity. But you could be closed off at times.
“I don’t know Arthur.” You spoke and his eyes looked sad as he looked at you. “I feel so alone, here.”
He brings you closer, taking you into his arms, now sitting on the ground with you in his arms, he slowly brushed your hair away from your face. “Whys that? Is someone making you feel that way?”
You immediately rejected that idea, as it was not true. “No, it’s not that Arthur. I don’t know how to explain it, I feel like I’m just free floating and nobody sees me here, I feel down. And it’s all coming back to me.” You shed a few tears, but you weren’t full fledged sobbing.
He nods, “Understood. Y’know, I see you. Always.” He said calmly, it comforted you like hell. “I’m here for you, come to me.”
“I know, but you’ve been gone for the time being. And I missed you so much.” You admitted.
“I can’t skip my chores or duties here, but if it’s somethin’ like this, I’ll try and stay here for you. You mean s’much to me, if I lost you I’d go mad.” He said stroking your hair. And at once, your problems weren’t gone, but you knew you had a solid rock to lean on. And it was Arthur.
“Yeah. Thank you, Arthur.” You looked up at him, he thumb reaches up to swipe a tear from your cheek, kissing your forehead.
a/n if u liked this pls req more, they’ll be open for a bit (check guidelines and info to see who and what I write for!)

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's only the first trimester but this pregnancy thing is already a bit rough, at least more than I imagined. I never expected it to be easy but I do get tired of having to run to the bathroom. Yeaaa, lets not talk about that!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Instead lets talk about waffles, more specifically, chicken and waffles! My appetite has definitely started to change as I find myself more likely to completely clean a plate but I don't think I've had any specific cravings yet? I mean, right now I'm craving golden waffles and slightly crisp fried chicken drenched in sweet syrup, does that count?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Naturally the scent of waffles wafting waffly through the house is enough to draw Pascal down to the kitchen. I'm pretty sure waffles are his favorite food and the way he lights up before digging into them tells me that I might be right.
He takes a few bites, makes a groan of approval, then turns his attention to me, a bit of concern on his face. "You okay?" He asks with his mouth half full. "You spent a lot of time in the restroom this morning and-"
"Yeaaah, just one of those things I guess?" I say trying to pass it off casually. The constant nausea is common during pregnancy, right? Probably nothing. "It'll be okay!"
"Yeah," he mumbles, getting right back to his meal.
That reminds me, Pascal hasn't really talked much about this whole 'we're going to be parents' thing too much and by too much I mean not really at all? He's told me that he'll be there for the baby and for me and that matters but I do wish he was a little more involved.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I think he saves most of his enthusiasm for mud baths. It's a ritual for him, I think. I can understand why, it can be very relaxing sinking yourself into a puddle of earthy mud and letting the world melt away. I understand he kicks a ball around for a living but it does take a lot out of him. Athletes really push their bodies past limits. It must be a ritual of his at this point.
As for me, I find my own way to unwind. Grooving to Latin pop, the infectious beats fill the room and gets my feet to move but not too much. Sure would hate to trip or something buuut I'm hoping my little one is vibing to the music too!
Tumblr media
Doing laundry isn't in any way more fun than dancing but it has to get done. Even if the sun is bearing down on you, making you sweat, and...why doesn't Pascal have a washer and dryer again?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But I wasn't going to spend my entire day under the sun, especially when Sara decided to drop by again. She's been coming over more and more lately, I don't mind, but as I've mentioned before she's a bit nosy. Always asking questions and trying to pry, just a touch annoying actually, but there's something endearing to it? It's almost like little sister energy, if that makes sense? Maybe that's just me wishing I had a little sister.
She does remind me of an old friend I had back home, in Selva. A softer version of her, a less confident version of her, but a version of her all the same. Candela was her name but that's a story for another day.
Tumblr media
As soon as we sit down Sara dives right into the topic of Pascal. Completely expected, remember, she's the nosy prying type after all but I decided to turn the tables back on her and ask her about her own love life.
"Umm, remember, I'm not so fortunate," her reply is hesitant and her voice cracks a little, letting me know this is more of a sensitive topic for her.
"Sara, you're way too hard on yourself! I know you've had some luck-"
Tumblr media
"What's luck if I'm sitting here single," she interrupts, set on putting herself down I guess.
"Sara, you're young, we all are," I say, wanting to defend her from herself. "It's really not that big of a deal being single. Sometimes, it's better than being stuck with someone that's abusive."
"Yeah...well, for now, I'll live vicariously through your relationship so lets hear about it." The smile on her face is forced but I agree. I don't want to force her to talk about her.
So I tell her about Pascal and me but there really isn't any excitement because there isn't much to go on about? We are just sort of...living together? No big adventures or vacations, nothing overly romantic, we've just been sharing a space and going through life day by day I guess.
Tumblr media
"You're going to have to pull him off the pitch long enough for you two to do more together," Sara suggests. It's a good idea. The SPL, which stands for Sims Premier League, has an offseason doesn't it?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After Sara leaves the house feels a little quieter. That's alright because I'll always have ice cream! It's the sort of thing that can bring joy to any evening and so I step right over to the kitchen and pull out my nifty ice cream making machine and make me a bowl of it. because, why not? Feels like a butter pecan kind of day to me and it's feeling like I'll be needing two bowls!
Tumblr media
One thing I think I have to consider when it comes to living with Pascal is that I've been doing most of the chores. Whether its scrubbing countertops or washing the dishes or doing laundry out in near 100 degree heat, it's me doing it all and here I am vacuuming so that we're not inhaling dust. Makes me wonder how he was keeping this place clean before me? I'd ask Pascal to do it for tonight but...
Tumblr media
The mechanical whir of the treadmill and the pounding of his feet had told me he was busy. I quietly slipped inside of his workout room, which, now that I think about it, looks like it would be better suited for a child but maybe that's a discussion for another day.
I have to squeal out a hello to get his attention and once I do; "Does the offer still stand?" I ask, voice raised to be heard of the rhythm of his workout.
"Huh?" He kinda shouts back, a little out of breath.
Tumblr media
"Moving in, does it still stand?" and I shout right back.
"O-oh! Yeah! Of course! Of course it does!" He stammers back and gives me a smile. I'll leave him alone for now I guess.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So yeah, it looks like I've mad my decision or rather, fate has made it for me.
I do have some concerns but that's expected, right? No one is perfect.
Honestly, if I were not pregnant with his child I do not think I would have made this decision but now that I am I want to do everything right. That includes raising a child the usual way. Mother, father, a house, a family, that kind of thing. It's at least worth a try, it's more than what was done for me growing up.
I'll miss this place. I wasn't here for long but that's the story of my life. I don't tend to stay in places for too long. The universe always nudges me on to my next chapter and on to the next episode..

You Drew Stars (Tech x Jedi reader)
Ratings: Angst | Fluff
Summary: Unrequited love is a real Bantha
Pt 4 of You Drew Stars
Feel the force around me… Use the force within me… I am one with the force and the force is with me… Be one with force.
The breeze swayed around me as I could feel the heat of the sun beat against my face. I sat in an empty field close to the Marauder, trying to find a moment for myself.
Be one with the force.
Be one…
Be one…
I felt the surge of the force within me. I opened my eyes to watch the energy surge through the tree a feet feet in front of me, a crack forming through the center.
“For the love of all things!” I yelled as I fell into my back.
“I’ve never seen you do that before.” Hunter’s voice sounded from behind me.
“I’m…” I sighed.
What do I even say? I’m struggling to handle my emotions? I have formed to much of an attachment? That I feel like I’m falling further and further away from the path of the Jedi?
“I’m alright.” I finally said, keeping my gaze on the sky.
I have to be.
I could hear the shuffling of his footsteps before he settled down beside me.
“No one has heard from you or seen you all morning. Omega is getting worried, Wrecker too.” Hunter explained.
“I didn’t want anyone to see me like this.” I muttered, “I’m trying to reconnect myself as a Jedi… It takes time and isolation.”
“I’m sorry again that he stood you up last night.” Hunters gaze couldn’t meet mine as he stared at the group of trees ahead, “Maybe he forgot.”
“He doesn’t forget anything.” I stated Tech’s words every time one of the boys tried to test his memory.
“I know.” Hunter relented.
“I wasn’t the one he…” I felt my throat begin to tighten, “It’s fine really.” I wasn’t sure if I was reassuring him or myself, “I now know where his heart lies and… I’m happy that he’s happy. I just need to move past this, that’s all.”
It wasn’t find though was it? Hunter could see the wrecker look upon her face. Clearly Hunter’s senses went beyond the physical realm as he studied the way the Jedi seemed to want the ground to swallow her up.
“You don’t have to burry your feelings. Trust me, Crosshair buries his feeling for all of us.” Hunter replied.
“If he were here right now, he’d probably say something like, I told you so.” I laughed lightly.
“Something like that.” Hunter grinned, “And most likely start a brawl with Tech.”
“I miss him…” I sighed, remembering all the fun times we all had when we were together.
“Me too.” Hunter replied solemnly letting a quiet settle upon us.
My stomach began to growl, causing us both to break into a small chuckle.
“I probably shouldn’t have skipped breakfast.” I joked before I glanced nervously to the direction of the Marauder.
“Has he left?” I didn’t have to say his name for Hunter to know who I was referring to.
“No… He’s been quiet all morning working on the ship.” Hunter answered truthfully.
“I’m going to go into town then and grab something to eat.” I stated as I pushed myself off of the ground.
“You don’t have to hide yourself away.” He stated as he stood as well.
“I know.” But it doesn’t mean I couldn’t try.
“At least take Omega with you. She needs a girls day having been cooped up with her brothers all morning.” Hunter tried to make a joke while taking care to make sure I wasn’t alone.
I smiled gently at the kindness and care he showered me with.
I patted him gently on the arm, “Thank you, Hunter. For being my friend.”
“Of course.” He nodded, “I’ll go get Omega.”
I watched him walk back to the ship, nerves creeping along my skin at who was inside.
He hasn’t tried to find me at all since last night… Did I really mean so little to him? If not romantic at least as friends? Now that I think of it… Were we even friends? Have I been fooling myself this entire time?
I closed my eyes and let out a soft sigh. I could really use your wisdom right now master…
“I’m ready!” Omega yelled as she ran out of the ship.
I suppose sometimes love is just a hopeful dream.
“Hi sweetie! Where do you want to go eat?” I asked as she grabbed my hand.
We began walking into town, her eyes scanning the buildings.
“I’ll know it when I see it. I’ve been wanting to try this place for a while, but it’s too fancy for my brothers.” Was all she replied and I couldn’t help, but wonder what she will pick.
What I didn’t expect was it for her choice to be the same cafe that I was at last night. Great now I’m even more embarrassed. We entered the cafe I sat in miserably for a couple hours last night. The staff here would have changed right? Please don’t let anyone recognize me. Please… Please… Please-
“Hi hun.” greeted me and I could see the pity in her eyes.
“Hello.” I greeted back nervously, “T-table for two.”
“And who is this precious thing?” She smiled down at Omega.
“I’m Omega!” Omega greeted.
“Hello again.” A familiar voice spoke behind us.
Not him too… Why did Omega have to choose here of all places?
“Indul.” I greeted him with a small nod, “You’re working today too?”
“Yeah.” He chuckled, “I have to pay my rent somehow.” He joked as he reached for the menus, “Just the two of you then?”
“Yes.” I gave him a polite smile.
Omega looked between us before settling her gaze on me, “You know him?” She asked as we followed Indul a few steps away.
“He was my waiter from last night…” I trailed off not really wanting to get into it.
“So this was…” She whispered.
“Yes.” I nodded.
“And you waited…” She pieced two and two together.
“Yes.” I sighed.
“I’m sorry.” She said as we sat down.
“Don’t worry sweetie, not all was lost. The food here was really good.” I smiled as I took my menu, “I liked the small cakes.”
“She’s right there.” Indul smiled as well, “I assume your date didn’t show up after all?” He spoke gently.
Oh I wish you wouldn’t have remembered that.
I shook my head, “Seems like he found someone else.”
“For someone who’s considered a genius, he’s an idiot and also my brother.” Omega placed her chin in the palm of her hand, elbow resting against the table as her eyes skimmed the menu.
“You must be really close then if you’re here with his sister.” Indul acknowledged.
“We are in a way. Well maybe not so much he and I anymore, but our group have always been a family.” I explained.
“Well if I didn’t know any better, I’d say he’s missing out on the chance to get closer to someone as beautiful as you.” He took a step back leaving me to manage my blushing cheeks, “I’ll give you two a moment to choose your drinks and a possible appetizer.”
The second Indul left, Omega was staring at me with wide eyes, “He likes you!”
I shushed her, praying to the force that no one especially Indul had heard the small girl.
“He does not.” I countered quickly, “I barely even know him. He probably just feels bad for what happened yesterday.”
“Doesn’t matter. I can tell he likes you and I don’t like it.” She crossed her arms, “You are suppose to be with Tech, maybe Hunter, but not with someone who could take you away from us.” She blabbered as she waved her little hands around.
“What do you mean Hunter?” I questioned her, but she continued in her rant.
“You need to stay with us because we’re a family.” Her voice was heated and I could tell she was beginning to get emotional.
“Hey hey.” I reached across the table to grab her hands with mine, “I’m not going anywhere you hear me? Nothing in this universe will take me away from you sweetie. Not even your idiot brother.”
That seemed to calm her down, a small smile beginning to form on her face.
“Promise?” She asked, her pinky held out in front of her.
I wrapped my pink around hers, “Promise.”
“Ready for your drinks?” Indul asked.
I sat back in my seat, “Bring us the most colorful non alcoholic drinks you have and some of those desserts from last night too.”
“Coming right up.” He smiled.
By the time the check arrived, the two of us had smiles and full bellies.
“Will I see you around here again?” Indul asked as I stood up.
I thought for a moment before nodding, “I think so. This will be our new favorite spot now.” I wrapped my arm around Omega’s shoulder as she grinned.
“I’m glad to hear that.” Indul smiled as well, “See you soon and have a lovely rest of your day.”
“Thank you!” I said before we walked out of the cafe.
The rest of the afternoon was spent with laughter and girl talk as we explored more shops around here. I ended up buying Omega a spring dress with the few credits I had and she wore it, skipping all the way back to the Marauder with her hand grasping mine.
The sun was beginning to set by the time we got back, Omega running over to Hunter and Wrecker who were sparring in the open field not too far away. Echo I’m sure was inside the ship probably tinkering on something with Tech. I couldn’t help, but smile as I watched her girl in her new dress and raving about it to her brothers.
“General.” The voice I least wanted to hear spoke up from behind me.
“Tech.” I spoke his name softly as I turned to greet the less than intelligent clone, at least in my opinion right now.
He walked down the ramp of the Marauder to stand in front of me.
“I wanted to apologize to you.” He glanced to his right nervously, “I didn’t mean to stand you up last night. I completely forgot, even if that sounds absurd coming from me… It is the truth.” He stated.
I nodded slowly, “Apology accepted.”
“Hunter told me you felt hurt by my actions and I don’t want you to feel that way because you’re my friend and I hope we can reschedule grabbing food another time? Perhaps a lunch date…” His voice trailed off as I gave him a confused look.
“Hunter told you I was upset?” I furrowed my brows. I tried to ignore the stab at my chest as he mentioned us only being friends.
Was that the only reason why he’s apologizing to me now? What does he mean lunch date? Was that what he thought last night was? Me just asking him to dinner as friends?
I felt my hurt turn into anger as I glared at him, “So if he didn’t say anything you would have just assumed that what happened last night was alright?”
“Well naturally yes. I don’t see how it is a big deal.” Tech adjusted his goggles.
“Don’t see?” I scoffed, “You don’t see how standing me up would be a big deal?!” My voice got louder, “What happened to us being so called friends? Huh?!”
“I have read that it is common for friends fo forget certain dates.” He elaborated, “I don’t understand why you’re so upset about it? I said we could grab lunch tomorrow.”
“I don’t want lunch! I want you to realize what you did last night was mean! And I’m not that kind of friend either, I wouldn’t forget you.” I seethed.
“That is highly implausible.” He stated with a slight wave of his hand, “It is natural for one not as intelligent as I to forget things.”
I’d never forget you!
I wanted to scream as my heart cried out. I felt the pebbles around my feet begin to shake, representing the anger I currently felt.
“Seriously?!” I was yelling now, “Says the one who had his tongue shoved down Phee’s throat while I waited for you for hours! Seems more like a stupid move to me!”
He rolled his eyes, “What happened with Phee and I last night has nothing to do with you.”
Ouch…
He continued, “And I didn’t ask you to wait.”
“You didn’t have to!” I practically friend out, “I don’t understand why you can’t see through your unintelligent brain that I would go to the ends of the galaxy for you!”
“Unintelligent? I can calculate and solve the most unsolvable problems with a gun pressed to my head.” He stepped forward, “What can you do General? Throw rocks?” He glared.
“Watch it.” I snapped, “I have saved you and your brother countless of times, I use to be your general.”
I could feel my blood begin to rise as the love I felt for the man in front of me began to boil over.
“If you are so great at saving us then how come my brother isn’t here right now? You couldn’t even get Crosshair on the ship that day.” He questioned.
“I…” I turned away to hide the fresh tears coming to my eyes, “That wasn’t my fault.”
Tech huffed, “Of course it wasn’t.”
I scoffed in return to cover the tightening feeling in my throat, “Some friend you are… Have fun with your girlfriend.”
“I will.” He stated it so surely that I wished more than anything that I could vanish in that moment, but he didn’t stop there, “At least I’d be a more supportive friend than you.”
“Tech that’s enough.” Hunter glared approaching and stepping in between the two of us to stop the argument, “Look at what your doing, your scaring Omega.”
I quickly glanced over to find Omega in tears, huddling behind Wrecker.
“Oh sweetie…” I said brokenly as I quickly walked up to her taking her in my arms, “I’m so sorry.” I spoke to he as I lead her back into the ship.

Chapter Eleven
Ravenna threw herself into anything that kept her from thinking too hard about Cassian. She’d spent most of the week leading up to Starfall in and out of Rhys’s study, and the library, mentally preparing to see Fetrin again. And avoiding Cassian. She’d been unable to shake the way she was feeling about him, so she decided it was better to just shove all thoughts aside instead, at least for right now. Her plan had been working quite well, until the Friday before the Ball. 
The healer had been in the library, losing herself in a book for the prior four hours that had passed since she’d arrived. When she ran out of positions to be in that didn’t cause her neck to ache, Ravenna closed her novel and rose to stretch her limbs. She rolled her neck, then decided to make her way back to her room to steam her gown before the following night's festivities. Upon realizing she hadn’t set foot outside for the entire day, she changed course and decided she’d allow herself to watch the sun continue to make its slow descent from the rooftop of the House. 
She yawned as she ascended the stairs to the roof, the well-manicured turf and asphalt of the training ring coming into view. Ravenna inhaled the warm evening air, the sky just beginning to turn a shade of pale pink, and took a seat on the top row of one of the bleachers that sat adjacent to the stairs she’d just come from. She closed her eyes, enjoying the breeze that circulated so high in the mountains; something about it felt like home to her. Ravenna watched the sun sink further and further, the sky turning from pink, to purple, to periwinkle, to blue, to black and sprinkled with stars. When the sky had finally gone dark, the lamplights that surrounded the training ring flickered on and illuminated the darkness with fluorescent light. She closed her eyes one more time to breathe in the evergreen air before heading inside, only to be jolted back to awareness all at once.
“Whatcha doin’?” 
Ravenna’s eyes shot open to find Cassian leaning against one of the lamp posts at the far end of the ring, giving her a small smile. She imagined she turned a bright shade of pink at the sight of him in only his leathers, his shirtless chest illuminated by the light above him. She swallowed, trying to ignore the flood of thoughts and feelings that broke the dam she’d put up over the past week at the sight of him.
“I was watching the sunset,” she replied softly. “What are you doing?”
“Came up for a nighttime training session. It’s been the only time I have the energy.”
Ravenna nodded, wetting her lips with her tongue. “Have you used a sword yet?” 
“I’ve held one. Lifted, carried, ran with one,” Cassian replied, lackadaisical as he made his way to the small armory cage at the other end of the turf. “Haven’t actually used one yet, like to fight with,” he finished, as he chose a hefty Obsidian sword from the wall and shifted its weight in his hands. Ravenna watched him carefully, leaning back on her palms and observing his wings when he turned his back to her for a moment. They looked like they were healing perfectly, although she could still make out the scars she’d created mending the skin back together.
“Bring it on, then,” Ravenna said a moment later, rising and heading for the armory herself. She’d gulped down whatever feelings threatened to spill from her head, focused now on the fact that Cassian had been trying to train and get back to his pre-injury level. Cassian raised an eyebrow at her, but smiled so radiantly that Ravenna had to look away. She perused the weapons on the wall, settling on a more slender, lightweight Obsidian and moved to meet him in the center of the training ring. 
“I didn’t know healers even knew how to hold a sword!” Cassian jabbed.
“Ha-ha. Very funny,” Ravenna answered, slicing a diagonal line through the air dramatically as she approached. “I happen to be very talented with this thing.”
“Let’s see it,” he dared, laughing a little and widening his stance. She lunged, and his sword caught hers as it fell, sending her balance the opposite direction. Ravenna recovered quickly, and the two began to spar as night continued to fall on Velaris. Ravenna thanked the gods her body could count on the muscle memory of hand to hand combat she’d learned so long ago, long abandoned unless she really needed to defend herself without magic. It also helped that Cassian was not at full strength, otherwise she might’ve grown tired after twenty minutes.
After a good half hour more, Ravenna wielded a particularly hefty swing in Cassian’s direction and was surprised to hear a grunt and a thud as he hit the ground. She caught her breath, but Cassian stayed crouched with his head down, and her heart dropped.
“Are you okay?” she asked, dropping her sword and moving towards him. When she had nearly reached him, face etched with worry as she went to examine his wings, he turned around faster than she could comprehend and tackled her to the ground in one swift motion. She squealed as they fell, both of them laughing like children upon impact.
“I thought you were hurt!” Ravenna protested, smacking his chest from where she lay encompassed by his wings. Cassian flinched slightly, faking shock at her assault, but continued laughing. Their eyes met for a moment and Ravenna felt that familiar sensation begin to spread through her chest, down somewhere deep within her where she felt exposed, as if he could see right through her. Her smile faded as she began to panic once more, that feeling of vulnerability that so terrified her and threatened to destroy their friendship rising in her throat. She pulled away, and pretended to be shocked by what time it was. 
“Oh shit,” she said, pushing off of him and rising to her feet. “It’s so late. I still need to steam my gown before tomorrow.” 
“Yeah, yeah. You should,” he said quietly, as she re-racked her sword and made for the door. 
“I’ll see you tomorrow Cass,” she called, looking back one more time before she disappeared back down the stairs and into the House. Cassian remained, still sitting on the pitch with his elbows resting on his knees, staring at the door she’d left through. 
“See you then.” 
-
Ravenna was out of breath by the time she made it back to her bedroom, closing and locking the door behind her. She tried to slow down her breathing as she started the process of steaming her gown for the following day. As she hung the black silk from a knob in her bathroom, she thought about everything she’d been feeling and had just felt. It became very evident to her, as she filled the steamer with tap water, that she could not continue to ignore the way she felt about Cassian. She was scared to ruin their friendship, yes, but she was coming to the conclusion that avoiding him so intensely was also ruining their friendship. She couldn’t go on like this forever.
Ravenna decided she was content with coming to that realization tonight, and took a few more deep breaths. Her mind shifted to the most imminent threat now, the fact that she had less than twenty four hours until she would see Fetrin again. She was unsure how to feel about it, now that it was so close. Instead she focused on the wrinkles in the gown, more specifically, on making them non-existent. This was a mind-numbing enough task that eventually her heart rate began to slow, and by the time she finished she was exhausted and more than ready to fall into her bed. 
When Ravenna woke the next morning, there was a split second of bliss before she remembered that tonight was Starfall and she would be attending the Ball in an attempt to sweet talk her ex-fiance. It all sounded like something Ravenna might read in one of her novels, not something that would actually happen in her ordinary life. But here she was. She still stayed in bed as long as was virtually possible, before she hauled herself up. 
She rose from bed slowly, and drew a warm bath for herself, tossing a few lavender sprigs and herbs in with the hot water. It was still early enough, and she wanted to at least try to enjoy her morning without the crushing weight of anxiety in her chest. When she was sufficiently clean and bathed, she wrapped herself in a towel and sat at the mirror to comb her hair. The black locks had been tangled and the de-tangling process took quite a bit of effort. After about ten minutes of combing, her dark hair fell in tendrils down her back, still damp. 
She surveyed herself in the mirror once more, admiring the way her features looked when she was completely clean-faced, free of makeup or alteration. Her Fae-ness was almost more evident in the natural slopes and lines of her face, the thick black lashes that framed soft, round eyes. Ravenna dressed in a simple maroon tunic and leathers, heading for the dining room to get breakfast. 
Ravenna found Mor at the dining table alone, thumbing through some sort of magazine and eating a banana. 
“Hey sister,” Ravenna said, tousling Mor’s hair as she passed to take the seat across from her with a blueberry scone in hand. 
“Ravenna! Just who I wanted to see,” she mused, turning towards the healer with wide, brown eyes. “We should get ready for the Ball together.”
“Yes please! I’m going to need help doing something with my hair. I’m not very good at any of that,” Ravenna replied, running her fingers through the ends of her curls.
“I’m not either, but maybe if we combine forces we’ll put out an acceptable finished product,” Mor replied with a smile. “How are you feeling about it all?”
“I wouldn’t necessarily say I’m excited about the Fetrin side of things,” she said, taking a chunk of muffin and popping it in her mouth. “But I’m honestly kind of looking forward to dressing up and looking pretty.”
Mor smiled again. “I never thought I’d hear you say such a thing! Don’t say people never change,” she replied. Ravenna rolled her eyes playfully and continued in on her breakfast. “Well why don’t you come to my room around 4:00 and we can get ready together and then go over there?”
“I’ll see you at 4:00 then, champagne or wine?” Ravenna asked.
“Mmmm…. Let’s do champagne. Tamer, so you can still focus. You’re gonna love it though, seriously. I was over at the hall this morning and the floral arrangement is ridiculous.”
Ravenna laughed as she finished the rest of her muffin, pushing up from the table once more. “See you at 4:00 then.”
-
At 3:57, Ravenna made her way across the House to Mor’s suite on the opposite end, two bottles of champagne and a luxury gown in tow. When she arrived, she found that Mor already had a record spinning at full volume on the huge wooden record player atop her coffee table, next to which was an open bottle of gin. Ravenna’s mood lifted almost instantly, and she joined her friend, popping the first bottle of champagne and pouring them each a glass.
The females perched in front of the expansive bathroom mirror that framed the double-sink vanity, applying various rouges and glitters. Mor opted for a scarlet red lip, while Ravenna stuck with more of a black cherry color. The more the bubbles spread through her chest, the more confident Ravenna felt. Mor had helped her to braid her hair back into a neat plait that crowned her waves. By the time she was ready to put on her gown, she was sure she’d catch Fetrin’s eye immediately. Rhys had assured her he was, in fact, planning to make an appearance. She couldn’t decide if she wanted to have known that or not. Fortunately, after her second glass of champagne, she had nearly forgotten how nervous she was.
Once she had her gown on and zipped, cinched in the places she wanted it to hug her body more, she zipped Mor up, and they were on their way. Mor wore a stunning crimson gown that was every bit her style, yet somehow elevated even further. Her golden hair was tucked nicely into a low bun that Ravenna was sure would come undone by her fifth drink tonight. 
Rhysand and Azriel, who had offered to fly the girls to the Ball, met them on the balcony. Ravenna resisted the urge to ask where Cassian was, and doubly resisted the urge to provoke his voice in her head. She knew he would be there, she just hoped he would be nearby in case something happened, she explained to the voice in her head. Ravenna flew with Rhys, who she scolded for the turbulent ride that made her head spin at times. 
“Remember, we’ll always be around,” Rhys said to her as they coasted. “I’ll introduce myself to him personally as well.”
“Thanks,” she answered. “I’ll be okay, I think, honestly. One more drink and I’ll be a social butterfly.”
“Cassian and Az will be keeping a constant eye out regardless,” Rhys said, glancing down at her.
“What?” she said, furrowing her brows at the High Lord above her.
“What?” he repeated.
“You made a face,” Ravenna replied.
“I did not make a face,” Rhys answered coolly. “I’m just telling you that Cassian will be there, he’s just not with us right now.”
Ravenna didn’t respond for a moment, looking out at the sky around them. “I didn’t ask,” she answered. “But thanks, anyway.”
They landed smoothly, and Ravenna only stumbled slightly upon impact. She straightened out her skirts, smoothing the gown against her legs. The fabric hugged the fullness of her hips comfortably, cascading up to hold the weight of her breasts up, while the rest of the open back was covered with the sheer cape imbued with rhinestones. She took a deep breath and took Rhysand’s outstretched arm, allowing him to lead her into the hall with Mor and Azriel right behind them. She held her head high, allowing a smile to grace her lips. Rhys led them to the bar, a move that Ravenna appreciated deeply. 
The healer ordered a glass of wine to sip on, the last ingredient she needed in order to have the confidence to do what she needed to. Mor hadn’t overexaggerated when she said the hall had been decorated beautifully. There were marvelous strings of lights illuminating the cathedral-like room, the entrance adorned with an archway of flora and fauna of greens and whites and golds. It was beautiful. She decided to make her way out to the balcony at the end of the room, as the sun was setting quickly behind the mountains and she wanted to catch it from such an amazing space.
She rested against the railing of the balcony, admiring the sun on her face as it made its departure behind Velaris. Ravenna continued sipping her wine, focused on enjoying the change from day to night that made Starfall so magnificent. 
I like the gown.
Ravenna turned from where she stood at the rail of the balcony, her heart picking up speed in her chest and her head feeling the rush of the champagne that made Cassian’s voice in her head sound like it was dripping honey. He stood before her now, in a sleek, all black suit, adorned with gold. His hair was half tied back, wings looming behind him. He smelled like he had just stepped out of the shower, freshly shaven, like clean laundry and evergreen. His brown eyes widened as their eyes met, and once again, she watched Cassian’s gaze drift down her body and then back up to her face, an almost glazed look on his face. She’d never say it out loud, but she loved the way he was looking at her.
Thanks. You look nice too.
Ravenna almost felt lightheaded, looking up at him, his scent becoming overwhelming, intoxicating. His face was illuminated by the faintest glow of the moon that was beginning to replace the sun, and she could see the stars starting to freckle the dark sky behind him. He looked beautiful. She hoped she hadn’t accidentally said that into his mind too.
Cassian opened his mouth to say something, only to be interrupted by someone Ravenna had not seen in about 30 years, and had not spoken to in centuries. 
“Ravenna Annric,” he breathed, and suddenly she felt as if she’d been transported to a different time, looking up into eyes darker than her own, jet black hair that showed no hint of change from when they were seventeen. She let it shake her for a split second, until she blinked and started playing the role she’d been practicing for.
“Fetrin?” she gasped, eyes wide, as if she’d thought she’d never see him again (she hadn’t). He leaned forward to embrace her, and she fought the urge to get lost in his scent and the memories it triggered. 
“It’s good to see you again,” he breathed. His picture perfect smile revealed the lines near his eyes that hadn’t been there the last time they’d spoken. He looked like he’d grown up at some point. Ravenna made sure to blink slowly, looking up at him with round eyes and soft lashes.
“You too,” Ravenna mused. “I thought I’d never see you again… after the way we left things. It was a shot in the dark that I sent that invitation.” She turned to introduce Cassian, but found that he was no longer next to her. 
“I’m glad you did,” Fetrin answered, looking at her intently. Ravenna sipped her wine once more, for another boost of courage. She sensed that she did have the upper hand in this dynamic; that perhaps he felt ashamed of the reason she had left him.
“Well, welcome to the Night Court,” she said, resting a hand on his arm and guiding him back inside. “I’d love to hear more about what you’ve been up to, after we get you a drink.” He allowed her to lead him through the glass doors from the balcony into the greater room. Ravenna scanned the room quickly, but still could not place Cassian, though she saw Rhys chatting with a group of Winter Court officials across the throng of Fae. 
Ravenna exchanged her half empty glass of wine for two champagne flutes from a nearby waiter, handing one to Fetrin. 
“To reconnecting with old friends,” she said, raising her glass to him. He tipped his head to her, clinking his glass to hers, and they both sipped in silence for a moment. She met his eyes over her glass, looking away again quickly. 
“So what have you been up to all these years?” Fetrin asked as he scanned the room. “I never knew where exactly you went after you left.” His voice grew quieter towards the end.
“I became a healer for the Night Court army,” Ravenna answered. “I’ve mostly been here ever since, healing for the High Lord and his battalions. I’ll introduce you later.”  
“Of course,” Fetrin breathed, “healing always made you shine.”
She smiled up at him. “I was made for it, I think.” He grinned back at her, then let his eyes wander, taking her in from head to toe. Ravenna pretended she didn’t notice. 
“What about you?” she asked. “What have you been doing?”
“I do a lot of diplomatic work right now,” he answered, looking around again and then leaning in closer to her ear. “They just offered me Lead Emissary.”
Ravenna pretended to be surprised and utterly wowed by this admission, gushing over his accomplishment. “I’m so proud of you, that is so exciting! I always knew you’d get it.”
“I don’t even know how I got the position, honestly. There were so many other great candidates.” Ravenna knew how he got the position, as the outgoing Lead Emissary was Fetrin’s father. 
“No one is quite as good as you, Fetrin,” she cooed, leaning into him as he puffed his chest out a little more. Ravenna was almost shocked at how easy it was. Just by chance, Ravenna caught Rhys’s eye across the room at that moment, and he moved to make his way through the crowd of High Fae in their finery. She patiently awaited his arrival, sipping on the champagne she still held.
A/N: I tried to make this chapter a little longer and was going to keep going but decided I need to break it up a little because I've been writing for too long tonight LOL. Do we prefer shorter or longer?? Let me know. I also kinda wanna share my vision for the looks for the Ball because ugh so cute. Anyways, enjoy <3

(scrapped) hogwarts professor!ghost x zoologist!soap very very old draft but :3 also peep ghost with glasses
-
Ghost’s social life has never been anything spectacular to begin with, but when he somehow manages to become the newest potions professor at Hogwarts, he finds it to be entirely lacking.
The balance he requires among work alone is enough to keep him busy nearly every waking hour of his days, and adding his personal life to his list of things-to-do, Ghost would surely end up with prematurely greying hair. 
(And who is he kidding—he’s already just about reached that point.)
So, it is safe to say that Ghost doesn’t get out much. It’s an unfortunate truth for his first couple of years teaching, but honestly, it isn’t much of a bother. Ghost is mostly happy, if a little stressed, and he’s more than lucky to be in his current position—that’s what he thinks, and that’s all that matters. Work gives him purpose.
At least, it’s all that matters until the universe decides it has other plans and introduces Ghost to a mildly bizarre man by the name of Soap.
Soap (real name currently unbeknownst to Ghost) approaches the professor while he shops for ingredients for a personal potions project. Soap is broad, attractive, and looks like he lives off one too many Invigoration Draughts a day. He greets Ghost with a manic smile in an attempt to act friendly, though the gesture isn’t at all helped by a body otherwise buzzing with energy. Everything about the man screams eccentricity, but then again—Ghost is a wizard. He’s always been bound to meet… interesting people.
“How much might you know about potions?”
Ghost blinks, genuinely surprised. Just from the stranger’s odd behaviour, Ghost had feared he’d earn a proposition, or that here, in the safety of the apothecary, the man would push to sell him something most probable to be illegal. 
But alas. An innocent question.
Ghost shoves the wiry bridge of his glasses further up his nose with his thumb, clears his throat. His fingers curl tight around the vial of mistletoe berries he holds as the stranger waits patiently for a reply.
“Well,” Ghost starts slowly, “considering I teach how to make them for a living, I would hope I’d know a thing or two.”
The man beams, eyes bright with gratitude Ghost is not yet worthy of.
“That’s perfect,” he says. “Then do you think you could help me with something?”
Politely, Ghost nods, though he has to wonder why the man hadn’t just gone to the shopkeep for advice first—but then, with a quick glance to the counter, he sees that said shopkeep is nowhere to be seen. His brows dip in a mild frown, not deep enough to be noticeable to anyone but Ghost himself.
“Alright, so—I have this hippogriff that I’ve been takin' care of and normally she isn’t so restless, but for whatever reason nothing I’ve done has worked to keep her calm for very long,” the stranger explains. “Potions are typically a last resort for me so I’m… I’m not sure what I should be making.”
“Uh,” Ghost says intelligently, sifting through his mind for an answer. He knows, he does, only, “I’ve never administered anything to something that wasn’t a wizard, but it should still work the same, with some adjustments.”
The stranger laughs. “‘It’ being…”
“Right, sorry.” Ghost clears his throat. His face warms with a blush, chest filled with passing embarrassment. He’s meant to be good, knowledgeable about these things. “The Draught of Peace. An anxiety reliever. But it’s a difficult potion to brew. You’d have to be experienced in potion-making to be certain nothing goes wrong.”
The stranger’s face falls. Ghost has already come to learn him to be rather expressive.
“Of course,” Ghost adds in a breath before he can stop himself. He isn’t sure why his mouth is still moving. “I could always make it for you.”
It's unfortunate that he can't find it in himself to regret the offer in any regard, after seeing the sheer and open look of hope it instills on the man's face.

-rant, please excuse the salt-
I really wish Don’t Starve Together was a different genre of game. I know that’s stupid because the objective “Don’t Starve” is the whole foundation of it, but I kind of just wish I could take the look and the loose story and make it more of an adventure and less of a never-ending survival game. I think in the Hamlet DLC for the base game, the “town” aspects of it scratched that itch a little bit, but I want more. The interface could even look exactly the same. I played the demo of Cult of the Lamb, and that game has a similar top-down 2D look to Don’t Starve, except there are in-game “cutscenes” and you have dialogue options which advance the creepy little narrative. Hollow Knight was good with this too. It’s a metroidvania, so there’s no crafting at all (I don’t consider status upgrades to be crafting), but like most RPGs with a silent protagonist, the story is furthered through exploration and interaction with NPCs. Some people love survival games, and I enjoy them quite a bit, but I like them to have an endpoint. The Flame in the Flood has a brutal difficulty curve, but it does reward you for your persistence, and it’s by no means impossible to beat. The journey takes you further and further along a river which at first seems endless - but it does have an end, and that’s what I want, I guess. Closure.
Hades is one of the most enjoyable games I’ve ever played, and the main reason was how much you are rewarded, even for failed attempts. You might totally choke on a run, but even so, every time you venture out you’re gaining more darkness/gems/etc that you can invest back into your stats and weapons. As in - there is no wrong way to play the game, you will move forward and improve no matter what. I love that. DST has finally dipped into this territory with Wilson’s skill tree, but I think they ought to give every character a similar mechanic. The skills would be specific to each character, and I think would give players more of an incentive to do repeat runs. At a certain point the whole game gets boring, and depending on my mood I sometimes boot it up, think about all the trees I’m going to have to cut down, and then immediately close the game, because I’m sick of doing virtual chores.
Stardew Valley was so addictive for me that I had to delete the game to get control of my life back. That game is nothing but farming and chores, yet I didn’t get tired of it. I think that’s because if you want to, you can ignore any aspect of the game you don’t care for, and time will pass anyway. You can spend all your time farming, or just mining, or focus on relationships with NPCs. Obviously with Don’t Starve, you can’t ignore food because starvation is an ever-present threat.
I also don’t give a damn about boss fights. I never have, in any game. I’m always eager for them to be over so I can get back to actually enjoying the game again, but nope I have to hit this thing 1000 times without getting permanently killed. Don’t Starve’s fighting system is shit, and it always has been. The hit boxes suck, and the fact that I need to download mods just to see health levels for the enemy is ridiculous.
I’ve had a lot of fun with DST, but I think I enjoy the fandom stuff more than the actual game. Same with TF2. It’s pretty fun to play, but I enjoy watching SFM videos and stuff like that more than playing the actual game. Don’t Starve has such fun characters and such an appealing style that it draws people in, and the animated shorts promise this wider world and a more intriguing story that isn’t in the actual game. Most players won’t even get to the cryptic hints at the story that are in the actual game (the Ruins, etc) due to the difficulty curve.
There’s a lot of creative energy and highly imaginative world-building, but when are we going to see it put to use? If anybody has any thoughts on all this, feel free to leave a reply.

Liaison | Part 6 | Galas, Business, and Backroom Deals
Check out part one here. Up to chapter 34/38 on AO3.
Blinking hard at the computer didn’t change the fact the words had all become unreadable. You had started work at four am and hadn’t left your chair since. The phone showed 10:23 AM if you squinted. Pushing away from the computer you shuffled to the kitchen for a cup of coffee.
As the last of the liquid ability to keep going dripped into your cup Kate finds you.
“Ah, Liaison. I’m glad I found you. I’ve cleared your schedule for the day. Go and grab your bag.” Kate dressed simply in jeans and flannel.
“What do you even do here Kate?”
Kate smirked at your exhausted question. “I coordinate teams on the ground. While you line up jobs for the team now I keep them all moving to the goals once we work the jobs.”
“Why did you clear my schedule then?” You focus the majority of your energy on the task of moving your coffee to a to-go cup and adding the prescribed amount of creamer.
“Because you’ve been with us long enough that Shepherd and I agree you can start taking on the networking parties.” The grin Kate has wouldn’t look out of place on a crocodile.
“And if I don’t want to be the face of the 141?” You mumble the question into your coffee. Kate hears you anyway.
“Too bad, you’ll be getting a £50,000 yearly raise and a company card for expenses.”
Spit takes with hot coffee should lead to a fine for whoever made the coffee come out of your nose. You cough until you can breathe again.
“Now much is my raise?” You stare at Kate with wide eyes, mouth agape.
“You heard me. Now go and get your stuff we have a lot to get done today. I’ll wait for you in the lobby.”
Hurrying down the hall you pack up your computer and ensure your workspace is clear. Firing off a quick text to König you head back down the hall.
<I’m getting a raise, so that’s cool. But now I have to go to parties 🤮
A reply pops up on your screen before you can reach the lobby.
>I would rather shoot myself in the head.
<While I understand the sentiment I’m going to like the chance to drink while working.
When you move close enough to see the lobby you see Harold, face red and chin quivering, talking with Kate who leans over the high counter.
“You okay Harold?”
Kate spins around to look at you while Harold sits in his chair, head disappearing below the eye line.
“He got some bad news about his family, ready to go?” Kate replies for him. She ushers you through the front door. You look over your shoulder, seeing nothing amiss.
“Where are we headed first?” You climb into the right side of the car, still uncomfortable with UK cars despite being here a year.
“You are getting a makeover today. Facial, massage, hair colored, among other things and then we are going to get you several dresses. Your first party is on Friday. I will be going with you and introducing you to a few people. Word that you work for us won’t take long to get around. Most people there will already have your number in their phone, so adding a pretty face to the number should help us get more jobs.” Kate drove as she spoke, slipping into traffic with ease.
“Kitty is going to be your hair stylist, she also does makeup. She is good at keeping her mouth shut and because of that has some high-priority clientele. Lana is going to provide your massage and Tia is going to give you a facial. We will be done at their salon in about two hours, which will leave plenty of time to get some dresses and shoes. The ladies will work at the same time to get everything done in time.”
You take note of the names Kate mentions and write them down in a small notebook along with what each woman does. This had been your trick to keeping jobs and people straight as you learn about them. Writing them helps everything stick and allows you to update your spreadsheets.
Kate always struck you as someone who tried to be ‘one of the guys’. Being on a first-name basis with women who fell into more traditionally female-coded jobs felt out of character. You tuck the incongruence into your mental folder on Kate. She did manage the liaison position before you, and if you are forced to go to parties then Kate must have had as well. You wonder if you can get a suit along with the dresses you are slated for.
The turn into the parking structure takes you by surprise, the oh-shit handle becoming one with your hand. Kate drives a bit wild, nothing like the controlled sedation of Harold. Though, as you think on it she drives much better than most of the team. You end up in a car with them for one reason or another from time to time.
Riding the elevator in silence you notice, maybe for the first time that you had several inches on Kate. Her large presence and the fact you slouched in your chair most of the time had left you with the impression you stood at nearly the same height.
When the ding of the elevator alerted you to the arrival of the correct floor you catch sight of a beautiful woman with bright pink hair standing behind the counter.
“Hi, Kate! Is this your new liaison?”
You wave as Kate introduces you.
“And remind me what we are getting ready for today?”
“Galas, business, and backroom deals like always Kitty.”
They laughed as if this were a commonly shared joke.
The next two hours should have been calming. All of your knots are attacked and obliterated by Lana. You must keep a neutral face when Tia is working on removing layers of dead skin. Kitty gives you what she calls low lights. You have no idea what that means but once all the women step from the room you rush to clothe yourself. Kate enters the room without knocking as you are halfway through getting your jeans on.
“Do you have any nicer underwear?” she pulls a face at your cotton undies and plain t-shirt bra.
“No? I don’t need them.” You wiggle your pants over your hips and ass, buttoning them and grabbing your shirt.
“You will, I will add that to our list of items to pick up.”
“If no one will be seeing them then I don’t need them.”
“Not your call, plus the nice underwear makes the clothes sit better, I promise.”
“I can’t imagine you getting all fancy for parties like this.”
“Oh trust me,” a wry tone, “It was not a walk in the park for me.”
Once your shirt is settled back in place you follow Kate into the proper salon area. Kitty has you sit in her chair. She drapes a gown over your clothes and gives you a light trim with some shaping. Kitty talks with Kate for most of the visit.
“What is the feeling you are going for on Friday’s party?”
“Classy, we need to introduce her and let her settle in people’s minds as one of ours before we start making waves.”
“Okay, send me a picture once you have the dress picked out and I will work with my associate Emma to get everything ready. Since there will be two of you I will be needing help.”
Hair cut, face scrubbed, nails buffed and shined, thoroughly assaulted you follow Kate back to the elevator. Going down two floors you are interested to see a high-end shop. The woman dressed all in black greats Kate with an air of self-importance, glancing you over before dismissing you mentally.
You can do no more than try on a dress and present it to Kate and the mistress of the shop before you are ordered back to try on another. After the twelfth dress, you send a message to König. The picture you send him is flattering, the floor-length ballgown hugged your breasts and flowed down in an elegant A-line.
<You wanted to be a sniper right?
>Ja.
<Any chance you could arrange to take me out before I have to try one more gown?
>Nein. You are friend.
The only reply you can think to send is a picture of you flipping him the bird.

“Erwin, this might be the most idiotic thing you’ve ever asked me to do,” Levi huffs.
“I would rather fight a hundred titans than go to this stupid party,” he says, as he puts on his dress uniform coat. “These rich assholes disgust me. Can’t you and Hange do this without me?”
Erwin smirks to himself. “We could, but then I wouldn’t get to see you uncomfortably shake hands with all those ‘assholes.’” Levi gives Erwin a dirty look. “I don’t enjoy these events any more than you, but Gareth Bisinger is one of the richest men in the inner walls and he has influence in the government. If we can gain his and his circle’s support, we can ensure funding for future expeditions.”
“But I don’t know why I have to be involved in this.”
“Because you’re humanity’s strongest soldier. The people love you.”
Levi clicks his tongue. “You owe me.”
Erwin looks out the window. “The carriage is here - we should get going.”
They’re taken to a large residence in the center of town while people dressed in their finest clothes are making their way inside. Hange is waiting for them at the entrance.
“About time you both made it, I’m starving! I hope there’s good food here,” Hange says, as the footmen lead them inside the residence.
Levi sniffs. “Four-eyes, you actually bathed for this? I never thought I’d see the day.”
“Well, when you’re rubbing elbows with the rich and famous, you gotta pull out all the stops,” they say proudly.
The three make their way to the ballroom, and Levi can hear the whispers starting: “Is that the Captain Levi?” “I heard he killed 20 titans on his own in the last expedition.” “He’s shorter than I thought.” “But he’s handsome - is he single?”
“See? I knew it was a good idea to bring you along,” Erwin says triumphantly. Levi glares at him.
“I’m going to get a drink.”
Hange looks at Levi with surprise. “But you don’t drink.”
“I do tonight.”
—-
Gareth walks to a corner of the ballroom with a beautiful grand piano and introduces the musicians. You and your partner bow as he sits at the piano. You bring your violin to your shoulder, lift your bow, and begin to play.
Levi grabs his drink from the bar but immediately turns around when the music starts. He’s never heard such a lovely sound. A crowd has begun to gather around you as you continue to play and he watches you close your eyes as your body sways slightly. He can feel the emotion coming from your playing and he can’t take his eyes off you. When the final note slowly fades to conclusion, he finds he’d been holding his breath just a little. The crowd claps as you and your partner bow. The next song you play is faster, more upbeat. Again, your energy is palpable as it reaches Levi’s ears and enters his body. He never had much interest in music before, but he had no idea it could have such power and emotion. With every song he was awestruck.
You bow and announce that you will play again after a short break. You talk to a few people then walk outside to the large balcony to get some air. Although you love having any opportunity to play, you hate these kinds of crowds: rich people who just want to show off. You don’t notice the man leaning on the railing beside you until he speaks.
“How do you do that? Play like that?”
You look over and see a man with a slim build in a dress military uniform. It has the wings of freedom on the shoulder. He moves closer to you.
“I’ve never heard anything like that before.” It’s dark on the balcony, but his eyes are piercing.
“Lots of practice,” you reply matter-of-factly. “I’ve been playing since I was six years old. My brother is the one playing the piano and we work off each other well. I’m glad you enjoyed it,” you open a slender, gold case and take out a cigarette.
“Those aren’t good for your health,” the man replies dryly.
You light your cigarette, your eyes moving across his uniform. “Yeah well, fighting titans isn’t good for your health either…yet here we both are,” you take a long drag and let the smoke dissipate into the air. “At least smoking gives me a chance to escape these moronic rich people. They wouldn’t know good music if it slapped them in the face, but they pay the bills, so..”
You look him up and down, in a way that Levi thought was a bit sultry. “So what brings you here? No offense, but this doesn’t look like your kind of crowd.”
“Funding for our expeditions. We’re looking for some deep pockets,” he looks at your form in the moonlight: one hand resting on the railing, the other elegantly holding your cigarette. For some reason he feels a bit tongue tied but he doesn’t want the conversation to end. “Do you play at these kinds of places often?”
“Yeah, unfortunately. We tour around but our home base is here in Mitras. I prefer playing in public halls or performance spaces where just the regular folks can watch us. When you can feel the energy of the audience, there’s nothing like it.” You throw your cigarette on the ground and put it out with your foot. “We have two more concerts in town later this week - you should come,” you smile at Levi, then see your brother trying to get your attention. “Oh shit, time for the second act,” you take the drink in Levi’s hand and down it in one gulp, “Thanks for the drink. I hope I’ll see you around,” you say as you walk back into the ballroom.
Levi looks down at his empty glass while the slightest smile forms across his lips. You’re sarcastic, and irreverent. Not at all what he was expecting.
He likes it.
The rest of the night, Levi follows Erwin around as he makes introductions, but his attention is fully on you and your music. When the end of the night came and everyone was returning to their carriages, you had already gone.
“Well I’d say the evening was a success, wouldn’t you, Levi?” Erwin asks as the three enter their carriage.
“It…wasn’t all bad,” is all Levi can think to say.
“Sis, it looks like a full house tonight. You ready?” your brother says excitedly. He takes your hands and blows on them.
“As ready as I’ll ever be,” you blow on his fingers. It’s always been a good-luck thing you’ve done since you were kids.
You both walk onto the stage. As you glance out, you see a short, black-haired man with his arms crossed sitting toward the back. You smile, then start to play.
After the performance, you and your brother go out to mingle with the audience. You see Levi sitting at a table and walk over to him, two drinks in your hand.
“You came,” you say, handing him the other drink. “So, what did you think this time?”
“You were right - you sound better playing for an audience like this. I…enjoyed it,” he takes a sip of his drink.
“You know, you never introduced yourself the other night. For all I know you could be some kind of stalker,” you lean your arms on the table, moving closer to him. He frowns. “But my brother told me all about you. You’re kind of a big deal…Captain Levi.”
“Tch, please. People have big mouths and think they know me,” Levi crosses his arms.
“Apparently, you have quite the fan club - especially with the ladies,” you smirk. At that, he clicks his tongue. “Do you have a girlfriend?”
He looks at you and scowls. “As if I would have time for a girlfriend. My job doesn’t really work with romantic relationships.”
“I know what you mean, relationships are complicated and messy. But that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun every once in a while,” under the table, you put your hand on his leg. His body stiffens, but he doesn’t move it away.
“You’re… very forward,” he says, looking at you.
“When I see something I want, I go for it. Life’s too short and unpredictable to play games. You of all people should know that,” you move closer to him, speaking sultrily into his ear. “Come to my dressing room after the concert tomorrow night. I’ll be waiting for you,” moving away from him, you bite your lower lip and give him a quick smile. “I need to go mingle. I’ll see you tomorrow,” you take your hand off of his leg.
“Who says I’m coming tomorrow?” Levi replies, keeping his cool.
You turn around and smile at him as you walk into the crowd.
Levi can still feel the heat of your hand on his leg.
The concert the next night finishes without a hitch. Your brother mentions that you were playing your violin with a new vitality and energy, but you brush it off, saying you were just having a good day.
“And that wouldn’t have anything to do with Captain Levi, would it?” he teases.
You’re about to reply, when suddenly there’s a knock at the door. Your brother opens it and Levi is standing there, arms crossed.
Your brother gives you a knowing glance. “Captain Levi! We were just tal-”
“Ok, why don’t you go greet our patrons for a bit,” you interrupt, “Levi, please come in.”
“Yeah, I can take a hint,” your brother says as he leaves the room and closes the door.
You walk over to the mirror and start wiping off your lipstick. “I wasn’t sure you’d come, to be honest.”
“Yeah well, you left an impression last night,” he walks over to you.
You watch him in the mirror. “Is that right? And what kind of impression is that?”
“You’re blunt and cocky. Usually I hate that, but with you…” he doesn’t know what to say. Seeing you in your green silk dress, the straps falling lazily off your shoulders as you lean over to look in the mirror has him tongue tied again.
You turn around and lean against the low dressing room table. “I’d prefer to call it confidence. Like I said, I know what I want.”
He moves closer. “And what do you want?”
You smile and grab his hand to pull him against you. You kiss him, gently at first; he reciprocates awkwardly but once started, it’s as if a fire is lit inside Levi. He grabs the back of your neck, kissing you passionately as his other hand moves to your waist. Your tongues mingle and hands begin to explore each other’s bodies: you run your fingers through his undercut, while he shyly moves his hands from your waist to your derriere.
Feeling your body beneath your silky dress makes him instantly hard, and his cock begins to strain in his pants. You feel it push against your leg and move one of your hands down to caress it.
At this, Levi’s breath hitches and he stops kissing you for a moment. He’s never had someone else touch him before and it surprises and excites him. You notice his reaction and move your other hand over to undo his pants.
You can tell that Levi is trying to keep his composure cool as you slowly move down the zipper. You reach into his underwear and feel his hard cock, which twitches at your touch. He holds his breath for a moment, then releases it in a long sigh as you begin to move your hand up and down his shaft.
Your touch is driving him crazy and it takes everything within him not to want to cum right there. He wants more of you so he starts kissing your neck. You feel his lips work from below your ear down to your clavicle, then kissing the other side. His hands begin to move up to your breasts, roughly massaging them. It’s then you realize that this man has not had much - if any- experience with women.
So you decide to show him how good another person can make him feel.
You push him back away from the dressing table and kneel in front of him, pulling down his pants and underwear.
Levi feels a bit embarrassed and vulnerable at first, looking at the closed dressing room door with worry. “Oi, what do you think you’re doing -”
He’s stopped mid-sentence when he feels you use your tongue to lick from the bottom of his shaft to the tip. You look up at him with a smile as you take the head of his cock into your mouth, gently sucking and then exploring the tip with your tongue.
You take your time, licking the shaft then sucking the tip again and again. You can hear his breathing getting heavier and then his hand goes to the back of your head.
That’s the cue you need, and you put his cock fully in your mouth.
It has girth but is the perfect size for you to suck it fully, and you can tell by the grip he has on your hair that this is exactly what he wants. You begin to bob your head in and out as his hand guides you on how deep or shallow he wants you to go.
Levi never knew he could feel such pleasure, and although he absolutely loves looking at you as you give him head, he has to close his eyes a few times as you take his cock deep into your mouth. He opens them abruptly when he feels your hands begin to massage his balls. You stroke them at a downward angle as you continue to suck his cock and you hear him let out an audible grunt.
You stop what you’re doing as he looks down at you. “Do you like that?”
“Y-yes,” he replies with a blush, “please…don’t stop yet.”
You take his cock back into your mouth and decide to experiment: you roll his balls in your hands, which earns another grunt, but it’s when you gently pull that you get a different response from him.
You move his cock out of your mouth with a pop, saliva still connecting it to you. “Did I hurt you?”
“Yes…but no…it feels good.”
You smile up at him. “I want to make you feel good, Levi.”
You begin sucking again and this time you feel his hand grip your hair tighter encouraging you to pick up the pace. As your head bobs, he thrusts his hips into you. You begin to moan and hum, and this sends him over the edge. His warm cum bursts into your mouth and down your throat.
Levi takes a deep breath as he loosens his grip and smooths out your hair. His low, relaxed voice says your name and you swear it’s the sexiest thing you’ve ever heard in your life. As he pulls up his underwear and pants, there’s a knock on the door.
“Miss, we’re closing up for the night,” you hear the stage manager’s soft voice say on the other side of the door.
“Yes. We’re leaving now.” You go to grab your jacket and Levi takes you by the waist.
“Let’s go to your place. We’re not finished yet.”
There’s a change in his voice: it’s primal and confident. Without a word you take his hand and lead him out of the dressing room and through the back exit of the theater, where you find a carriage to take you both to your apartment.
In the privacy of the covered carriage, your bodies converge in a flurry of kisses and touches. You notice that Levi kisses as if it’s the last time he will ever have this experience - there’s a desperation and intensity to it. His hand moves up your leg while his mouth moves down your neck. Not to be outdone, you decide to mark him by sucking hard on his neck. He winces, and then smiles.
So Levi likes a little pain with his pleasure.
When the carriage stops in front of your apartment, you both quickly compose yourselves. As you put your key in the door, you feel Levi’s hand resting on your lower back; a sweet, protective gesture.
The minute you take off your jacket and show your bare shoulders, Levi is behind you kissing them. You turn around, take his hand, and lead him to your bedroom.
As you enter, you light a candle. “So…you said we’re not finished?”
He moves over to you and hooks his fingers around the straps of your dress. “We’re just getting started.” He pulls the straps down off your shoulders, and your dress falls to the ground.
The room is dark, illuminated only by the candle and the light of the full moon through the window. He gazes, awestruck, at the way the light moves across the curves of your breasts and hips.
“You’re beautiful,” he says as he touches your breasts.
You pull off his ascot, unbutton his shirt, and marvel at his physique. He’s muscular, and you can’t help but run your hands down his chest, as you work on taking off his pants.
“I want you…all of you.”
You can hear the desire in his voice.
You lay down on the bed and open your legs. “So take me,” you invite.
Levi positions himself on top of you and you can almost hear his thoughts:
“What should I do? Where does she want to be touched? What if she doesn’t like it?”
You reach down to touch yourself as Levi watches you, then you take your finger and rest it on Levi’s lips.
“You can start down there.”
Levi takes your finger into his mouth and tastes your juices. He grabs your wrist and kisses down your arm, then your breasts and stomach, leaving kiss marks and bites along the way. When he finally makes it to your sex, it’s already throbbing in anticipation.
Levi pulls down your underwear and when he sees your pussy he immediately buries his head in between your legs, lapping around your folds and clit but taking it slow and deliberate.
Your hand grabs the back of his head when his tongue hits your clit. “Yes, Levi, right there.”
When his tongue flicked your clit and you moaned his name, it gave Levi the confidence to lick faster, his tongue exploring your labia. He listens intently to your moans and notices that when you arch your back, it means you want more. He decides to start fingering you as he sucks on your clit, and you arch your back even more.
“Oh god, Levi, yes..” is all you can mutter as he curls his finger and finds your g-spot.
You can tell he’s inexperienced, but he’s certainly a fast learner.
You feel your orgasm throughout your whole body as you grip tightly on Levi’s hair. You become light headed and your vagina quivers along with the rest of your body.
Levi feels your muscles contract around his fingers and tastes your juices flowing into his mouth. He looks up at you. “What happened?”
You smile. “You gave me an amazing orgasm, is what happened.”
He sits up and wipes his mouth. “We’re not finished…are we?”
“Oh hell no,” you say as you look at his fully hard cock. “I’m going to need you to fuck me now.”
“I can do that.” He takes some of your juices and begins to rub them over his cock. “Tell me…how you want it.”
“Come here,” you purr as you lead him to get on top of you. He begins to grind against your sex, wetting his cock with your juices even more. You reach down and guide his cock into you, his girth stretching your walls and you both let out a moan as he pushes in slowly.
“That’s good…let’s go slow at first..”
He cages your head with his arms as he kisses you deeply, his hips thrusting in a slow rhythm that feels so good.
Levi has never felt anything so satisfying in his entire life. Then you grab a pillow to put under your hips and it changes the angle, allowing him to go even deeper. His heart begins to pound; he has to go faster, and so he picks up the pace.
You respond by wrapping your legs around his waist. “Mmmm, yes, Levi, shit..”
God he loves hearing you moan his name. He begins to thrust harder, faster, beads of sweat forming on his neck and chest. You’re so wet for him, his cock easily slides in and out; the sound echoes throughout the small bedroom and mingles with your moans.
“Levi…you feel so good,” you praise, “now let’s try a new position.”
You sit up and guide Levi to lay down on the bed. Your sultry, passionate eyes look down on him and you place your hands on his chest as you lift up and then sit on his cock.
“Fuck..” is all Levi can mutter, watching you move up and down, your breasts bouncing in rhythm. He digs his fingers into your hips; he can feel his orgasm coming, but he’s not ready yet. He sits up and you adjust by wrapping your legs around him. Forehead to forehead, chest to chest, you both grind against each other deep and hard.
You cum first, the euphoria spreading from the top of your head to the soles of your feet, and Levi feels your vaginal walls expand and contract. He can no longer contain himself.
“I’m gonna cum,” he breathlessly announces and he pulls out just in time for you to feel the warm liquid against both of your stomachs.
He feels light headed and relaxed, as if all the pressures and pains of the world have melted away. His head in the crook of your neck, he tastes your sweat on his lips and hears your breathing slow down. He looks at you, moving away sweaty strands of hair from your face. “That was…”
He wants to tell you that you made him feel something that he’s never felt before; that your body gave him pleasure in ways he didn’t know was possible, even in his wildest dreams.
“…really good.”
Idiot. Why do you make him so tongue-tied?
You smile at him. “Better than good, I’d say,” you slowly separate your body from his. “Come on, let’s take a bath.”
Both of you bask in your post-orgasm high as you soak in the tub, taking turns to wash each other. Levi begins to relax and open up more as you both talk about your lives and responsibilities. Neither of you knows how late it is by the time you get out, and it doesn’t seem like either of you care.
“It’s late. I guess you’ll have to get going,” you say as you dry off, trying to hide the sadness in your voice. You’d only planned for this to be a one-night stand, but now you’re finding that you want him to stay.
“I wasn’t planning on it. Unless.. you want me to.”
You turn around to look at him. Your head tells you to say goodnight and send him on his way. But your heart..
“You can stay.”
Your heart flutters when he takes you back to the bed and you both get under the covers.
Idiot, you think to yourself.
The rest of the night is a cycle of talking, kissing, touching, and napping until you both finally doze off in each other’s arms.
——
It’s early morning and the sun hasn’t even risen yet, but you hear Levi get out of the bed and go to clean himself in the washroom. When he returns, he’s dressed in his white shirt and black blazer, his ascot neatly tied around his neck.
“I should go. My superiors will wonder where I’ve been all night, and we return to Trost in a few hours.”
You sit up in the bed and wrap the sheets around you. “Look Levi, I want you to know that I’m not trying to con you into a relationship. What we have…what we did…there’s no strings attached. I don’t expect anything from you.”
He sits on the bed. “I understand. But if the opportunity arises, I’d like to see you again.” He kisses you. “No strings attached.”
He gets up, and walks out the door.
——
A few months later in Survey Corps Headquarters, Levi is sitting through another boring meeting. He tries to focus, but his mind keeps wandering to that night with you; in fact, he hasn’t been able to stop thinking about you no matter how hard he tries.
“…so keeping that in mind, I need someone to make the trip to Mitras and speak with the top brass about plans for next month's expedition. Any volunteers?” Erwin asks of his officers.
Mitras? Before he even has time to think, Levi replies, “I’ll do it.”
Erwin raises a suspicious eyebrow. “You, Levi? But you’ve said before, and I quote: ‘I would rather brush a titan’s teeth than talk with any of those arrogant mother fuckers.’”
Levi leans back in his chair. “Well I guess I had a change of heart. You said yourself, they’re all enamored with me over there,” he rolls his eyes, “might as well take advantage of it.”
“Ok then, make preparations to leave tomorrow.”
Hange chimes in, “But if you ever really want to brush a titan’s teeth, Levi, I’d love to join you!”
——
You’re practicing at home on a new piece you and your brother are working on. It should be easy for you, but for some reason you just can’t seem to get it right. Every time you close your eyes to focus on the music, you see Levi’s face, feel his touch. Although his kiss marks have faded, it seems that he’s left other marks on you.
Suddenly there’s a knock on the door. It’s a telegram delivery for you:
I’ll be in Mitras by the end of the week. I expect to see you.
~L
You smile as you close the telegram. No strings attached.
Well, maybe just a little string.

Chapter 8

₊˚✧𑁍.ೃ࿔*:・
They boys head to their makeshift field and decided on the teams while the girls sit in their little area they made.
“Alright Me and Sam are captains. I get first pick” Embry said. He played on his schools team so he takes these games seriously. The teams are Emry, Jake, Quill ,Tyler and Sam, Paul, Seth,Jared
“Doesn’t it seem unfair. I mean Paul and Sam they are obviously bigger than the rest of them” y/n said concerned
“Yea but Embry knows the game well and him and Quil are an unbeatable duo.” Emily said
“Wait who’s gonna be the ref?” Seth asked
“Oo my sister can do it, She used to play when she was younger she knows the game right y/n!” Tyler said with pleading eyes. This is the only time she’s seen him this sweet.
“Fine I guess.” She gets up and heads to the boys.
“Y/n no cheating family doesn’t mean anything on the field.” Paul said looking at her with a smirk
“Yea but I don’t know i heard some things about Embry and Quil, I don’t think Tyler would be a problem.” Y/n snarked backed
The game starts and so far they’re playing fair. Couple minutes past and Emily was right about Embry and Quil they are kicking their asses. It’s 2-1 right now and they haven’t even hit halftime yet.
“Guys I’m not gonna lie, as grown men this is pretty embarrassing.” Emily commented
“I second that” Bella agreed
“They’re younger they have more energy and better stamina” Jared said
“No you guys suck.” said y/n
Finally after what felt like forever it’s halftime.
“That was literally the most sad first half I’ve seen.” Y/n said.
“Come on we didn’t know Seth would’ve been a terrible goalie.” Jared said
“He looked at y/n once and caused us a point.” Sam said
“He was practically gawking at you” Paul said with disgust
“I can’t help it look at her skin it’s sun kissed!”
“Stop looking at her toes!”
“But they’re pink and glittery….” Seth wined
“Alright guys it’s 3-1 let’s just call it quits” Jared said
“Yea I don’t wanna cry for Paul when you guys lose” y/n said
“Aww you’ll cry for me. That’s so sweet I’m touched!” Paul replied with a sarcastic smile
“Alright so you guys forfeit ?” Jacob asked mischievous smile
“Never” Paul replied with a smirk
“Come on Paul I wanna swim before the sun goes down!” Y/n said falling into him. Paul looked at her in her pleading soft eyes and before he could think he said
“We forfeit.”
“NOO PAUL WHY” Jared yelled at him falling on the sand. Paul instantly remembered why they didn’t forfeit.
“Cant blame him” Sam said going up to Emily with a kiss
“Oh my god why so dramatic about it, it’s just a game!” Bella commented
“We a team forfeits they have to take out shifts for the rest of the week.” Jacob said proudly
“What do mean shifts?” Bella asked. They all looked at Sam trying to figure out what they could telll the 2 girls who couldn’t know about the shifting.
“Um well you know It’s who has to clean up after every feast Emily cooks for us!” Sam said trying to convince them
“It’s literally just cleaning up how lazy can you guys be” y/n said
“Yea but they aren’t crazy like animals they eat like them too.” Emily complained
“Well I’m off to swim!” Y/n said throwing off her shirt at Seth and running to the shore. Seth stared at her in awe this just made his crush on her worse.
“Woah baby she’s hot.”
“Watch it.” Paul growled
“Easy Paul.” Sam whispered to him
“Do you have a crush on her seth?” Jacob ask him laughing
“What !? no….”
“She’s 17, your 14 it ain’t gonna happen” Jared said
“I can wait.”
“Guys come on there’a other girls” Sam said trying to keep the peace
“They’re not y/n tho” Paul said
“Oh what now you’re interested in her too? Now I don’t definitely don’t have a chance!” Seth threw his head back in defeat
“What? No im just saying there other girls for you, that are your age.” Paul told him
“Yea but remember you’re basically 19 so you can’t make a move.”
“Sure Seth just for you.”
“You guys stop fighting over her, Embry basically beat you too it anyways.” Quill said looking at Embry and y/n playing fighting in the ocean..
“Guys come on stop fighting let’s go in!” Emily said trying to keep Paul from wolfing out infront of Bella and Y/n.
They all are in the water, Bella soon left to meet up with her boyfriend.
Sam and Emily are together swimming and talking . The younger boys are ended up cliff diving with Jared.
Paul is just roaming around y/n not leaving her side. They some what were acting like children, y/n showing him how she doggy paddle, them having contests to see who can hold their breath the longest and just swimming around talking getting to know each other after a month of waiting.
“what’s your name” y/n asked
“Paul Lahote”
“Now tell me your story Mr.Lahote”
“Well, I’m 18 years old, people say I have a short temper but they’re just sensitive. My birthday is January 10th, greens my favorite color and I want to be a mechanic” he told her “now what’s yours.”
“Y/n Lara. originally city girl, I’m 17. My birthday is April 29th and my favorite color is purple. I don’t really know want I wanna do but a dentist sounds nice, oh maybe a vet.” she told him excitingly
“You know forks isn’t that bad” y/n says “it’s so peaceful, no crazy traffic, no loud noises coming from literally everywhere. Just trees, animals and rain. I feel so at peace.” she said floating soaking up the sun, waiting to see the sunset
“Do you miss Chicago ?” Paul asks her
“I miss the memories, my friends you know? I wouldn’t trade riding the transit for this. I officially love the west coast” she said swimming backwards
“Here come float with me” Paul pulled her. They both lay on their backs just staring at the sky, the sun is slowly starting to fall.
“I could totally take a nap here” y/n commenting “if I wouldn’t like float away becoming lost at sea”
“That would be a funny story to tell ” Paul chuckled before linking their hands “ I got you. don’t know what I would if I lost you.” The imprint on Sam started talking, this taken back y/n a bit.
“What do you mean?” She asked
“Oh um” Paul struggled to cover up what he said but quickly recovered “ you know before I could sweep you off your feet”
“Smooth” y/n said “you got competition tho”
“How will I ever compete with Seth!! A 14 year old who’s a mamas boy.” they laugh
“Come on let’s go with the others” y/n said grabbing his hand and swimming towards the shore.
Every was helping pack up, putting the food in the coolers, packing up the chairs and putting everything in the cars.
“Here let me help you” Paul said as he dusted off the sand of y/n blankets and folded them.
“Thanks Paul” she said
“Anytime” they head to her car to put them away. Once done they stood there.
“it was very nice to see you again. You’re pretty cool” y/n said
“Thanks you too. Didn’t know the girl who blasts oasis knew how to doggy paddle.” He said with a laugh
“Oof yea” she said closing her eyes due to embarrassment To be honest I blasted it because I was embarrassed that I called you sir. I thought I embarrassed myself I didn’t know you were 18 you look 20 with your build” She responded
“I’ll guess I’ll see you around the rez ? I gotta a get going tell Jacob and the rest I said bye and thanks for the invite !” Y/n said getting into her car
“Well bye I hope you too see you around soon. Drive safe” Paul hit the roof of her car and walked away.
Y/n waited for Tyler to get in the car and let him pick a cd. She began driving home thinking about how she finally met the boy from her dreams.

Writing anon #1 here with a few questions! As usual please don’t reply if you don’t want to. :)
What kind of character would you suggest writing for? Characters I’m currently interested in or characters I know more about? Perhaps a mix? I’m a little afraid that if I write for the characters I’m currently fixated on I’ll lose interest in them for awhile. For example, I’m currently interested in Daredevil but I know more about the Avengers because I hyperfixated on them in high school.
Where/how do you find inspiration and motivation to write? 
Do you think someone could write a relationship without having experienced it themselves? (Like a romantic relationship) I would assume it would just take a lot of research and editing to make sure it’s fairly realistic. Just like when you writing something else you don’t have experience in (like writing a character being a doctor or barista if you don’t have experience with that.)
Like the second anon I have a lot of trouble with outlining and plots. I usually get an idea I would love to write but have no idea what to do with it. Like how to get to the idea/scene or where to go from it. I really should try actually outlining and taking my time. I also really need to get my brain to understand that drafts are okay and normal. (I struggle with perfectionism, but I’m working on it.)
I realize now how number three might come across. I am an adult not a minor. I just had an extremely sheltered life growing up and have spent the few years I’ve been an adult dealing with a few things that are out of my control. So I haven’t had a romantic relationship of my own, I have read a ton of x reader fanfics and watched a lot of romcoms. And number four isn’t a question. :) Thank you so much in advance!
I'd say write for someone you like, someone you're comfortable with, and if you don't feel like you know enough about them to begin writing then that's easily fixed! rewatch/reread/re-whatever the thing that they're from and pay extra close attention, do it however many times you'd like, take notes. wiki's about the characters can also be super helpful for a ton of those little facts. but at the end of the day, write for whoever you like, whoever will be super fun to write for, whoever will make you excited to write. also you don't have to just choose one or even be stuck if you ever wanna move on, you make up the rules.
inspiration? i find that everywhere. sure, a movie is an easy thing to get my mind hooked on a fantasy, but most of my stories have just come to me in very mundane things. I've leaned into my own life experiences for a lot of sad stories (also used it as a therapeutic tool). there is literally inspiration everywhere, you just gotta open your eyes and see it. that weird tree right outside your window? that could be enough inspiration to begin a whole book. and as for motivation? well, first of all I really enjoy the whole process, so that helps a ton. I'm also autistic and have very good concentration, so I can easily just disappear completely into my wip. I'm also really good at just having it in my routine, sitting down and writing when I have the most energy for it. when I'm working on something very long, that's when it can become harder to keep that flame alive, but I think I've worked out a good rhythm to keep it going and not loose the drive to work on it: first of all, a detailed outline and notes. making a proper routine with it, though also not beating yourself up if it's a bad day and you only reread the last page 50 times, but don't actually write anything new. I also try my best to stay in the world while I work on it. like for when i'm not sitting and actively writing it, then I listen to music that fits the theme or watch movies or shows that have the vibe.
I think that truly depends on the person. some people can and some people can't. I personally don't write about too many subjects I don't have experience in (though still some like for example murder and some of the jobs the characters have, but my imagination can get me far enough to make me comfortable tackling those subjects). so yeah, that's so individual whether someone can do that well or not.
from my understanding of you from the very limited interactions we've had, I'd say that it'll probably continue to be difficult while you're not getting enough sleep for your brain to function properly as well as some other stressful things I could imagine is also going on and perhaps is the cause of the sleep issues. a few things that helps my perfectionism is to say that this draft will only be read by me and no one else, to say that this is only a silly little fanfiction just for the lols and not a fancy leather-bound novel, and also to aim for it simply to be finished and not for it to be perfect. and sometimes when it comes to beginning, you'll just have to jump straight in with the attitude of an imaginative and playful child. also sitting down and being like "okay, I'm not allowed to do anything other then come up with a story. I'm allowed to sit here, look around at my surroundings, and push through the boredom till my brain comes up with a story to entertain me". don't be afraid of slowing down and embracing the stillness, that's always where my best stuff comes from. and plot stuff? that is a huge subject and I'm not sure what advice could be beneficial for you. it's one of those things where learning about it on a technical level can be helpful, but only to get the sense into your bones and then throwing those rules and patterns out of the window like they never existed to begin with and just letting the flow of the story lead you.
