Rewritten Headlines (Charles Leclerc X Model!Reader)

Fake dating mixed SMAU and imagine. All the pictures are from pinterest. Random girls from Pinterest no specific person

{Reader's POV}

My manager mailed me the tickets to Monaco. I was flying in on the Sunday morning and then I was to meet some guy who was gonna be my fake boyfriend apparently. I reached Monaco around afternoon and rested in the hotel until the meeting time. She sent the guys's profile and number so that I could contact him, if I needed to. When I opened the profile, the name read Charles Leclerc. I'd heard about him; he was a driver for Ferrari and if you base your work out of Italy it's kinda hard to miss Charles or Ferrari. I got dressed and headed to the restaurant we decided to meet at. He was already waiting for me when I got there. He waved at me as soon as we saw each other. I walked towards him and raised my hand to greet him "Hi, I'm Y/N Y/L/N, your fake girlfriend." I said. He laughed then replied, "Hi, I'm Charles Leclerc, your fake boyfriend."

We sat together and talked for a while, going through the profile our teams had sent and made a few changes that we would be letting them know off. Charles was easy to be around and fun to talk to. We had dinner together and he dropped me back to my hotel. He even offered to drive me to the airport tomorrow but I denied his request since I didn't want to ruin the plan our teams had come up with.

We were supposed to date for a year till it would clear up our names. Our meeting was supposed to happen at a race, I was flying out in 2 weeks for. I would be Ferrari's guest and then Charles and I would hit it off, immediately. We would do a few public appearances and be 'caught by paps' make it believable, a few interviews and Instagram posts and then break up with a post or story. Simple as that.

{Reader's POV}

Going to all these places to be spotted by paparazzi or to his races meant we spent a lot of time together. It felt so nice to have someone going through a similar situation. He was so nice to me, I had so much fun just hanging out with him. He made me laugh at his stupid jokes. He got me flowers even though the dates were fake. He bought us matching watches to make it believable. Even my actual boyfriend never put this much effort.

After a race, both of us got to the hotel together. He walked me to my room; "do you wanna chill and get room service?" I asked while I unlocked my door. "sure" Charles replied with a big smile. I let him in. We sat and ordered room service and watched a movie together. I got tired mid way through the movie and ended up laying my head on his shoulder. We ended up cuddling eventually. I don't remember when I slept but I slept like a baby in Charles's arms.

After a 'date' in Milan, we were walking back to my place. I had offered him a spare room since it would be weird if he stayed at a hotel when his girlfriend had a house. We walked back holding each others hands in silence. The comfort was warm and inviting. I may have been cuddling myself to sleep in Charles's arms the whole weekend he was there but no one has to know. I didn't sleep as well alone as I did with him. So whenever we were together, he offered to be my cuddle buddy. I think I'm starting to like him; this could be bad.

When Charles won the race, he walked towards me cupping my cheeks; "can I kiss you?" he asked softly barely above a whisper. I nodded my head and then he kissed me. It wasn't in the contract, we weren't supposed to kiss but we did. It was magical and warm and sweaty. The kiss ended to quickly for my liking but the cheers were deafening. I think I'm in trouble, I think I love him.

{Reader's POV}

Our contract was up in a couple days. We haven't be seen together for a few weeks now. It's breaking me not being with him. But this was a contracted relationship to help us both. I just never felt like this with any other guy.

{Charles's POV}

Mine and Y/N's relationship was a contractual obligation. But I never realised how close we got. That kiss we shared after my race win was everything. I felt electric shock through out my body as her lips moved against mine. It was then I knew that I loved her but it probably wouldn't work out since she didn't feel the same.

f1gossip Paddock's favourite couple has broken up after only 1 year. It was year ago around this time that rumours were floating that they were dating and yesterday both of them posted a story saying that they decided to break up because of work and their schedule. They said that they will continue to remain good friends.

user2 tell me this is lie😭 user3 I'm crying😭😭 user4 please get back together😤😤 user5 both of them made each other such better people🥺🥺 user6 she really deserved everything Charles gave her after her shitty ex🤧 user7 I hate life!!😓

A couple nights after the sleep over at Y/N's place with her friend; Charles showed up at her door with a big bouquet of tulips and roses. He had a huge chocolate in hand too. He was scared; his palms were sweaty and he really contemplated ringing her door bell. As if the universe was trying to get these two oblivious love birds together, Y/N opened the door with a packet of trash in her hand. "Charles" she whispered scared that he'll disappear if she said it out loud. "Hi" he greeted. "come in" she said while opening the door for him to enter. "I'll be right back" she said while walking out of the door. She disposed of the trash and came back to sit where Charles was sat in her living room. The chocolates and flowers still in hand. He stood up as soon as she entered. "For you" he said while thrusting them in her hands. She took the flowers and sniffed them, a small smile on her lips. "What are you doing here, so late?" she asked. "Ilikeyoulikealotandican'tlivewithoutyou" he blurted out. "Charlie, you're gonna have to say it slowly for me to understand" she said while placing the flowers and chocolate down to stand in front of him. He huffed out before speaking, "I think I like you. After we stopped seeing each other I couldn't imagine my life without you. I don't know when you became so important to me but I need you in my life" he said. She had tears in her eyes, she leapt forward and wrapped her arms around him; "I think I like you too Charlie, I couldn't sleep without, i couldn't eat. I knew I loved you when I was able to fall asleep in your arms. I'm so happy you feel the same" she whispered into his neck. Charles wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug. "I love you too mon cherie." he said while pulling away to look at her, "Will you be my girlfriend for real this time?" he asked looking into her eyes. "Yes" she nodded while pressing her lips against his.

[exo-raskreia]

hi my dear, i have to say i love your blog and how you get over those pitiful ichihime statements

i want to know how will you explain or if you have another post that explains... how time doesn't interfere between ichigo and rukia

bc i always see how ichihime fans say how fucked up their ship is just bc of their age. i mean, we understand that time goes different between both worlds, but it's like they just refuse to understand it

also how it is not so much about age but connection, understanding and equal interests, they also seem to forget isshin and masaki

i'd be glad if you can answer, thank you much for all your posts 😭 it makes it easier to like ichiruki, sometimes ichihime fans just make it so hard, like you're committing a crime

Oh, thank you! ☺️

Antis really think an unrealistic age gap is a problem in a FANTASY or SUPERNATURAL setting? Especially in the Bl3ach universe, where there's already a canon couple with that trope? Doesn't it sound silly?

They act as if Mortal X Immortal ships don't exist, as if they aren't a popular trope/dynamic in many forms of media. They call IR problematic because of it, but turn around & ship pairings like Yato & Hiyori (Noragami), Inuyasha & Kagome, Tomoe & Nanami (Kamisama Kiss), etc. Yet, they cross the line at IR?

They conveniently forget or ignore the fact Ichigo is a product of Isshin & Masaki, a canon couple that the antis support & like to use as "parallels" with their mid ship (even though those of us who can read know IM parallels IR). Isshin was probably way older than Masaki, older than Rukia even, yet once again, the antis cross the line at IR?

Hypocrisy, much? They only bring up the age gap when it's convenient for them. When they want to grasp at straws to invalidate IR. But all their arguments have a counter-argument to them 🤷‍♀️. IR is just that powerful 😌.

Ichigo & Rukia vibed so well right off the bat, getting on a first name basis early on, & often seemed to share the same brain cell 🤣.

Souls in Soul Society age much slower & differently than living humans. Rukia was the equivalent of Ichigo's age, so she was "15" in SS terms when they first met. Antis like to act as if she's some ancient hag or s*x goddess who's going to corrupt poor innocent Ichigo, yet Rukia showed to be quite innocent in many matters, not to mention, she thought kisses were only for greetings in one of the early chapters 💀. Out of the two, I'm pretty sure Ichigo would know more than her in these matters...

(I've also seen this stupid argument against HitsuKarin. They be calling Hitsugaya an "old man"!! Like, seriously?! How is he gonna "corrupt" Karin—by giving her a large stack of paperwork?! He's about 10-11 years old in SS terms, the equivalent of Karin's age, who was 11!! Then they both conveniently aged up to 12-13 after the 17-month timeskip... Just what was Kub0 getting at?!🤦‍♀️)

Not to mention, Ichigo felt very at home in Soul Society & got along so well with all the "ancient geezers & hags" there, even going as far as calling some of them by first name & hanging out with them like old buds (such as Renji). No wonder Ichigo didn't feel like he belonged in the Living World much; he really was born in the wrong generation (or world), lol... 🤪 He always showed to be more in touch with his shinigami side... (no wonder he chose that out of all his hybrid sides in TYBW, & yet... 😮‍💨)

Anyway, don't engage with the antis. Ignore/block/mute them. Follow the age-old fandom rule: just ship & let ship. Don't let the antis ruin your fun. There's so much IR content out there 😄.

[dazzle02]

I hope you don’t mind me answering but I think people would be more receptive and less nasty if it wasn’t Tommy. As much as I enjoy bucktommy there’s always a part of me that also wishes they had picked someone less controversial for his LI. I would think overt homophobia and the wishes for him to die wouldn’t happen on a grand scale bc I think people feel comfortable saying it bc they’re wishing death on someone they consider problematic so it’s ok in their eyes. I do think they would still be subjected to an insane amount of scrutiny and you would still see the bad faith takes about thier relationship but it would be hidden behind them wanting his LI to be “better” to him. If Albert made the daddy joke they’d still say he’s making fun of his trauma, they’d say he’s a bad person for leaving the date and overall just a bad person for Buck but with less of the hostility that comes with Tommy bc people think Tommy’s past justifies how they act towards him now.

yeah. I think it’s likely there would still be a lot of hate, but possibly not as much. I kinda agree on the choosing someone a bit less controversial, but at the same time I always enjoy redemptions and definitely enjoy just how well it all worked out, and it wouldn’t have worked in that same way with anyone else.

btw, this is my first ever ask… so thank you… 🤣

[phantomoftheorpheum]

hi!! 😊 i liked that christian was a major red herring. it was nice to be validated even though i was expecting it. i like christian but i think he is a little too similar to tabby to be interesting as a love interest. they are the male and female versions of each other 🤣

johnny deserved better. although i think he was a little too understanding with imogen at times, he knew she was going through it and i respect him for that. the way she demanded to see his texts and look at his search history was such a red flag. of course i get it in this context but irl that would not be okay. maybe imogen need to be single for a while.

i don’t like jen. i will never like jen. she’s manipulative and a liar. i will never excuse how she deflected and made noa the bad guy in the conversation where noa attempted to confront her about robbing shawn’s house. how their shippers ignore that problematic behavior is beyond me. i’m sad that she will be in season 3. at least i’m not alone in this as i’ve seen a lot of people complaining about this ship in the pll original sin instagram comments. i hope the writers hear our complaints. it has made noa my least favorite liar when i used to love her.

Hi! I agree!

You are so right about Christian! I should have trusted my 2x01/2x02 gut that he was a red herring, but then I got so suspicious of the fact that no one was suspicious of him when they obviously should be. jksdhfksdf. I'm still baffled by how Tabby didn't think to put either Wes or Christian on their original suspect list, considering their love of horror and the masks stuff, but I'm just gonna have to learn to accept that. I'm glad Christian was good too, though. I never wanted him to be bad, just was very suspicious he might be. They definitely gave him some dialogue that pointed his way. But he was a good red herring! He worked until the finale when they started getting suspicious and then I knew it wasn't him.

I have said it once and I will say it again, Johnny is quite literally the chillest dude on the planet (😂 this will never stop being funny to me, I am sorry). I'm also glad that he's not bad because I think he's an enjoyable addition to the cast and I hope he is in next season (again, assuming they get a next season) because we still know almost nothing about him, so they could do a lot of fun things with his character. But I do think Imogen needs to take some time, regardless of the Johnny stuff (I mean, he really should NOT want to date her ever again because she nearly killed him??) because this was a mess. I also think all the girls (but particularly Imogen and Tabby) do still need mental healthcare, but obviously not with Dr. Sullivan.

Aaaaahhh, the Jen stuff. I just kept thinking there was going to be some sort of reveal/resolution that made the Jen stuff feel like it worked in the season and had a reason to be there. I had so many possible scenarios I was willing to accept. and yet, they managed to find one which was none of them??? I can't believe I sat through so much love triangle crap for literally no payout. I hate love triangles and the only redeeming quality is that they usually have a big blowout scene when it all comes out, but they didn't even give us that???? It will be interesting (assuming they get a season 3) to see if they respond to the criticism like they did with the Ezra thing, because a lot of people feel Noa's carelessness about the situation (and she was super, super manipulative towards Shawn throughout this, as well) ruined her character for them. Now, I think it's fine to tear a character down and need to build them back up, and I think it's good to see the Liars engage in flawed behavior, the problem I have here is... they (the show) have given no indication that they think they actually DID tear Noa's character down? Like, I am sorry, but her behavior was flat out cruel and she felt a tiny bit bad about it for like 2 seconds and faced absolutely 0 consequences, and that, not that she made some terrible decisions, is the real problem here. It's not "tearing a character down to build them back up" or even "giving a character flaws" if those things are never acknowledged as flaws and terrible behavior in the first place? Ugh. There was just so much potential with this storyline (literally so much!) and they just threw it all straight in the trash.

Okay, I am gonna ask on the Beifong sisters. Suyin und Lin!

Oooh, the Beifong sisters! I would totally watch a spin-off with nothing but Beifong drama. That's how much I love this family, warts and all precisely because in their imperfections they're so fascinating. @mikaharuka also wanted to know about them so let's begin with the elder, dutiful sister, the one and only Chief Lin "that lady is my hero" Beifong and I'll get to Su in a separate post.

1. sexuality headcanon

Besides being a workaholic and married to her job, I believe Lin is queer (undefined but definitely not straight) and demiromantic.   

2: otp 

OTP for Lin? Lin/happiness. Although I enjoy Kyalin, I don’t really have a strong OTP for her but I want her to live her best life with whoever she chooses. I’ve seen her shipped with a lot of characters and it’s funny how she’s been paired with both of Tenzin’s siblings. One ship I admit I find intriguing is one that I stumbled upon through a fanart and it’s Lin/Iroh II and honestly, I can see it work. Yeah, she’s older than him but it’s about the same age difference as the canonical Tenzin/Pema. Besides. Lin is hot and she definitely doesn’t move or look like a woman in her fifties so age ain’t nothing but a number here. I can get behind cougar Lin 😉

3: brotp 

Mako. Although she still has a good relationship with her old flame Tenzin, I believe Mako is the closest to a BROTP for her. I’ve seen Lin romantically paired with Mako but personally, I prefer the “momboss and detectiveson” dynamic for them. They just understand each other well since they’re both the oldest children and they had to carry the burden of responsibility early in their lives.  I also like to think that she could be a great mentor and friend to Kuvira and I love the idea of the two of them sharing drinks while spilling the beans about Suyin. 

4: notp 

Although I like the enemies to friends to lovers dynamic, I don’t see her with Tarrloq.

5: first headcanon that pops into my head 

The reason Lin and Tenzin spent a lot of time together growing up is Aang, since he was for all intents and purposes, Lin and Su’s main father figure. Like Tenzin once noted, “my father and Lin got along famously.” After training with Tenzin, he would take some time to practice earthbending with the Beifong girls and Lin admitted that Aang made learning more fun that her mom. It took her a long time to recover from Aang’s demise so part of her initial skepticism toward Korra is the fact that it reminded her that Aang was gone and this chaotic energetic girl was his successor. 

6. favorite line from this character

This gem 🤣

7: one way in which I relate to this character 

I can relate to her in the way she shows how she cares through actions and not words.

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character 

She definitely needs to improve the recruitment standards for the RCPD because the detective pair from Book 2 were painfully mediocre at best and it hurts to see them associated with her. 

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave?

She’s a grumpy, gruff cinnamon roll. 

[sevensdeadly-if]

Thank you for replying to my many asks! I am loving reading them also on your Azreal replying:

I laughed so hard like don't give me a whole kinky ass man and expect me to ignore that. He's kinda hot in a very yandere kinda way..

I have such problematic taste in fictional men.. 😭😭😭😅

🤣it’s definitely fun to create antagonists that get you feeling multiple different ways at the same time honestly. I think that’s why some of them, like dio, are such compelling and interesting characters even if they are absolutely dog shit human beings.

[cai-yue]

Thank you @blackmonitor for the tag! Here we go! I kept thinking about how I should make this list because throughout my life I had too many fictional crushes 🤣 So I decided to make a "retrospective" of those who stayed in my mind for a greater time!

(actually, I decided to go crazy and explain the freaking list 😬 I've been working and studying so hard and I miss so much this type of silly fun thing that I completely overdid it 🤭)

1. Luke Skywalker - little me used to be obsessed with him and he remained unmatched in the Star Wars universe for several years until a certain blue guy took his place! But even now he's still a crush of mine.

2. Sirius Black - Sirius remained unmatched not only in the HP universe but for teenager me he was my absolute favorite. It all began when I developed this weird sympathy at the beginning of the 3rd book and the obsession skyrocketed at the end for obvious reasons.

3. Anakin Skywalker - judge all you want but this is a sad truth in my early teen years. He didn't top his son, obviously, but considering Luke wasn't even born 99% of the prequels... I know some people will find this very problematic, but rest assured I don't like this character the way I liked him 20 years ago but I had to list him here because it's part of my story I and think this whole thing quite hilarious today.

4. Aragorn - Aragorn was my LOTR crush back when I was younger! Even though he is not anymore I still understand all the appeal the younger me saw! Totally worth mentioning

5. Sesshoumaru - It was the beginning of my anime/manga era, which lasted many years, and if I had to pick a few crushes Sesshoumaru HAS to be one of them. I read many fics about him and these fics were the reason I managed to learn English 70% on my own (I know, speaking and writing skills are not the best, but reading and listening which are the ones I use the most are ok). I'm not much into anime/manga anymore but every time I look at him I feel I go back in time!

6. Kira Sakuya (Angel Sanctuary) - Even though I would not read this manga again because this is not the type of material I feel good reading anymore I do used to be obsessed about it and this character (be aware of great spoilers if you google it). I had to mention him because back then I had a great time.

7. Elrond - After I don't know how many times rewatching LOTR something was drastically changed (I got a little bit older I guess) inside of me and now Elrond has my heart (I won't say he is unmatched because Tolkien has simply too many characters in all his creation and well... You know...)

8. Solas - I think we finally have a crush that comes from a fully adult phase of my life! When I played Dragon Age: Inquisition I was away from games for a few years and I took this one out of pure intuition from my brother's selection. My intuition was 100% right and after many stressful years I went back to a world that made me feel at home and because Solas was my crush back then I had to mention him!

9. Thrawn - My most recent obsession hahaha. Not so recent though because it's been (at least) 5 years since he appeared in my life and Luke lost his number 1 title. There are way too many things I can say about my history with this character but thinking back to when I first read the old trilogy I think is interesting to note that I remember not liking him that much at first and not considering him crush material. I've never been so wrong 😅

[destinyc1020]

I agree with you to a point. I do know that they made fun of Taylor but her dating him is not gonna have people stop supporting her like it would for black people. That's all I'm saying. Also to be fair I'm not a Swiftie so she ain't on my timeline lol. Yes celebs get judged for who they date in general I said that in my last post. It just seems like black people and specifically black women get judged harsher. Also just cause the black community calls things out all the time doesn't always make it right. I love and hate that about us. Sometimes we do speak up and will call out the bullsh*t but then there are times when we just be saying negative things especially against our own for no reason or for clout and excuse it as tough love or jokes. I always hated that mentality. Like "I talk about you cause I care and if I didn't that means I don't." I personally think that is problematic. Not saying black women are above critique but they are always being over-analyzed whereas someone like Timothee will still be fine even if they make jokes about who he dates. They won't be biased against him, but to me they will with black women.

Well, black women (blk ppl period tbh) just get judged way harsher than ppl of other races just in general, so you're not wrong about that.

I do feel that the black community could stand to be a little kinder to each other, and give some of us some mercy every once in a while. So I totally agree with you that sometimes we can take criticism of others (even our own) a bit too far at times. 🥴😔 There's a very high bullying mentality in the AA culture imo. Smthg that we need to work on tbh. 👀 #realtalk

I'm still not so sure this will ruin Keke's career or anything though. It's just the news/gossip of the week. It will probably blow over in a few weeks as long as nothing else happens lol. Celebrity gossip and news scandal comes in waves. It's highly talked about for a week or two, and then most ppl forget about it and move on to talking about something (or someone) else rofl 🤣

Let another project of hers come out, and I'm sure ppl will be talking more about that than her dating choices. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[chironfables]

Lovely anon here! Thank you (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) You're lovely too ❤️ Your writing is good and it really comforted me 😌 As difficult it is to recover, we can do it 😤 Let's slowly but surely heal ❤️

It's interesting how some devils aren't jerks but weird or actually quite sweet 🤭 I definitely agree that Leviathan should be the king of red flags because it's too perfect 🤣

You're welcome! I'm sure you can improve your writing with time 👍I definitely love all the kings too 👑 but I love how confident Satan is but he admits it's a brave face for his people. I may not know exactly what he has went through but I'm sure he has suffered quiet a bit 😔 I love him too!

Not only is Mammon the very first character I ever saw from WHB, I love both his design & his personality 😍 I think it's because I have seen so many characters similar in a sense of how possessive he can be, the fact his reaction to MC is "I'm yours" rather than "You're mine" is a pleasant surprise 💝 Even more so that he's the Avatar of Greed who believes everything belongs to him yet he's willing to be theirs made me feel for him (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) Not that you mentioned it, Mammon is like a dog 🐶 while Satan is like a cat 😺 I do think orange is pretty but I didn't realise that it's look like rich honey 🍯 I still think gold would be more suiting for him though 🤔

I didn't realise it until you mentioned but I'm pretty sure that Leviathan is the most problematic character I ever liked 😅 I'm glad even in-universe that he's the problem 👍 Please continue to write sweet Leviathan especially I think he might be soft deep, deep down because I love it (⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠) Your description of him is too accurate 🤣

As someone who has memory/time management, it's so difficult 😩

Beelzebub definitely seems to go at his own pace �� but he cares for his people even though his way is unique 👍 I do think that he would think he would take it hard of how he didn't realise earlier as he chose to be a serious commitment with them 😞I'm glad he's taking it seriously but he's still doing it on his own charming ways 😁

Lucifer sure has a lot of pressure on him 🤔I agree! It's scary how even a though has to be taken seriously 😱I'm glad that you're transparent with your loved ones ☺️ I won't deny it will be difficult for me but I'll try my best 👍I agree that it shows a lot when a man so prideful is willing to be vulnerable with someone really shows how much he trusts them 🥹 I absolutely love soft Lucifer 😍 Well, soft characters in general 😁

I love how adorable both Gamigin and Jjok are too 💕

You're welcome! I'm thrilled that you found doing the commentary fun too 🤭

Thank YOU for so much for accepting my requests ☺️

Please take your time! Don't forget to take care of yourself and rest too!

Have a great day and be safe too ❤️

Hey lovely Anon!

I wanted to give a quick update, since your requests are taking me a lot longer than last time.

My physical and mental health have been taking a toll on me o_o Please forgive how long I'm taking this time!

I'e been working on your prompt for the shy kiss for the WHB kings to cheer them up and I've rewritten Satan's three times lol. We have 3/5 kings done, I will keep going I promise <3 So sorry for the delay.

Summer is very busy for me IRL, but i'll keep writing as much as I can :)

[call-sign-shark]

What an incredible hide and seek chapter, full of suspense. You have given me the chills, my little Brummie. Right from the get go you’ve perfectly managed to describe the setting and instill a sensation of threat/ constant tension with Tommy. Especially in your description of Arthur and John always walking on eggshells with him because he has lost his mind — I can perfectly imagine Thomas Shelby terrorizing Birmingham for two months straight, turning and returning all of the city to find his wife. There a sentence I’m particularly fond of, and it’s “Thomas Shelby, the infamous Peaky Blinders boss, could not even find his wife.” I love the fact that; despite his obsession for Y/N, part of his hellish anger is due to him getting wounded in his reputation. Even if it’s a Dark!AU, it still feels true to the character and it’s impressive. I swear the little family talk behind his back was very effective at adding a layer of anxiety toTommy’s apparition.

The whole search is written like a delightful thriller — I felt caught in the story as the Shelby brothers looked for poor Y/N. The idea of her selling her wedding bracelet is brilliant! The way you’ve described Tommy’s anger building within, almost suffocating him, as he understands Y/N dared to sell her wedding gift was gripping. At this point I could not help but fear their next meeting. Now I know it’s a Tommy work but I cannot obliterate my baby Arthur and little John. I love the way they tormented the poor jewel seller but what made me laugh was their banter when Tommy was waiting at the counter. John trying a ugly hat and Arthur laughing at hop before slapping his head was hilarious. This is so sad how baby Arthur tries hard to make Tommy smiles or to calm him down. Hence when he puts his arms around his shoulders and lights his cigarette up. He’s starting to scare even his own brothers — I can’t help but wonder what will happen if Arthur and John learn the truth??? (Heaven would be like “told you but ok🙄”)

The part about Y/N living with the Rileys was a soft and well-deserved pause in this dark story. Even though it made her retrouvailles with Tommy even more dramatic — The scene of her cradling Mrs. Riley’s son is adorable. She would have been so happy if she’d have a peaceful and normal life with Tommy but no! Poor girl had to marry Mr. psycho! 😩 When John starts to really hesitate in following his brother and just sheepishly obey while wondering what is wrong with Tommy I was like “YESSSS JOHNNNN”!!! And I clasped in front of my screen lmao. Do shits are starting to get very problematic for Tommy?? Because the more time passes, the less he’s able to hide his crazy ass to his family. Seriously Brummie you’re torturing me, I need next chapter now or else I’ll die waiting 😩🤣

Tommy not giving a fuck about charity. 🙄 As if he wasn’t unsympathetic enough. At least he’s giving money but…

OH BLOODY HELL THE BAG!! He has seen he bag! I’m doing the cross sign and I don’t even believe in God. I literally stopped breathing when he opened the door and found her hidden, RUN MY LITTLR Y/N. If I’m being honest I’m sincerely caring for her, but I am fond of your portrayal of Thomas’ sadism in this last scene. The countdown he does, knowing she’s going to run away, is a brilliant addition to the already tensed atmosphere. It highlights how he’s having fun chasing her, and how the thrill of the hunt might be one of his favorite moment. The song “Run Rabbit Run” is literally my fave oldie of all times, so I could not help but smile from ear to ear at the mention. Besides, it goes so well with the whole scene!!

Now he’s found her and I am properly TERRIFIED. You’ve already mention how impatient it was at punishing her, and I am scared he’s really going to hurt her bad. Like — very bad 🥺 I hope Polly will do something before she ends up black and blue, because I’m not sure sex will distract him anymore judging by how serious her move was. Also kudos for the whole passage “Sometimes she was longing for his strong arms around her body, his way of cupping her face and looking in her eyes, when he told her he loved her…” this was heartbreaking, because despite everything she clings onto those temporary moments of relief and tenderness, which almost make her forget his madness.

Wonderful and thrilling new chapter, love! 🥹💚 I am so happy I’ve decided to read this Tommy work because I’m experiencing the best multi chapters ride ever along with Tachipen from our skilled and awesome @zablife. I can’t tell you how your prose managed to makes me travel in these very dark waters, and makes me forget everything around. You are a wonderfully skilled writer and scenarist. I can’t wait for next update really 😭💚

Killing Me Softly (PART SIX/ DARK!TOMMY)

Summary: It's been two months since your escape from Tommy's clutches. How long will you be able to stay hidden while your husband hunts you down?

Warnings: Language, angst, psychological mind games, controlling behaviour, toxic marriage, Dark!Tommy ( this is a dark fic, please read the warnings before continuing)

Writers note: Just to note, £250 in 1920s England is the equivalent to £9,183 in today's money, the price Tommy paid for your diamond encrusted bracelet . The song Tommy sings to Y/N is called "Run Rabbit Run" by Flanagan and Allen that was released in 1939, a song Tommy would have known.

Two months later...

Storming into the factory building, every worker turned around in a hurry to avoid the fury on their bosses face. They had learnt over the past two months that one wrong look could end with them getting shot, a lesson they learnt quickly when one of Tommy's many workers approached him to ask about a delivery due that day. Tommy's response, the end of his gun pointed to the young man's head. The workers only saving grace was when Arthur and John stepped in before he ended up six feet under with a bullet hole through his skull. The reason for his anger, you. For the past two months Tommy had torn Birmingham apart looking for you, every one of his henchmen as well as himself had been out searching for you night and day. Countless hours had been spent checking potential leads and yet, he still hadn't found you. The king of Birmingham, the notorious boss of the Peaky Blinders couldn't find his wife, the embarrassment only angered him more. Fury was consuming him, your brazen act of disloyalty and disobedience at the forefront of his mind every second of the day. Unable to sleep or eat, the only thing that kept him going was tobacco, whisky and the awaited pleasure he would feel unleashing his punishment on you, a punishment you would not escape for a second time. Slamming the door to his office shut, Tommy sat down in his leather chair, his fingers running through his hair as he looked down at the various notes left on his table. Sitting back he flicked through each one of the potential sightings, all of them quickly deemed useless as he tossed them into a nearby bin. Gazing down at his wedding ring, Tommy turned the gold band around his finger, clenching his jaw as he pushed down any anxiety that dared to make an appearance. A small inconvenience until he had found you, he thought to himself as he brushed his hand down his face. But was it? You had begun to stir up anxieties in him that he had pushed away for years since his return from war. The fear of having no control over what could happen started to slowly creep up on him again, the same fear he felt digging tunnels in France as the weight of the earth threatened to fall down on him. Swallowing back the memories, Tommy clenched his fist as his mind forced him to remember his time in France, and the only thing that kept him going, his childhood love. At first, it was a comforting memory he'd conjure up as the sound of gunfire echoed through No Man's Land behind him, but in his desperate attempt to block out reality it had become an unhealthy fixation. A once innocent young love became an obsession, an obsession he refused to let go of. Overtime the sound of gunfire and bombs exploding no longer scared him, instead it was replaced with the fear of never seeing you again, a fear that started to feel all too familiar. Straightening his posture out Tommy poured himself a glass of whisky in an attempt to rid himself of the uncomfortable feeling pressing against his chest.

" Why did she leave?" John's wife Esme asked her husband as she watched her brother-in-law through the glass window of his office, his head in his hands, his knee rapidly bouncing up and down as the stress coursed through his body. He was loosing control, and it was becoming evident to all those around him.

" The worry of her mother being sick. She's in a fragile place Esme. She couldn't handle it and left. Tom says she always does that, runs away from her problems when things get too difficult" he replied as Polly looked on, raising an eyebrow at Johns explanation.

" He looks like he's going to murder someone" Arthur said as he walked into the factory looking at Tommy now pacing back and forth in his office with another glass of whisky in his hand.

" He nearly did" Polly said, referring to the factory worker who almost got shot in the head for having the audacity to talk to him.

" He's still not found her then?" Arthur asked, leaning against a wall as he pulled out a silver flask of whisky. Clearly the soothing lull of the amber liquid was not too early for him either.

" Does it look like it?" John replied as he rolled the toothpick in his mouth between his lips.

" Fuck...we've looked everywhere, how far could she have got?" Arthur replied, taking a swig of liquor.

" Pretty far, when your scared" Polly spoke up, as she looked down at the newspaper in front of her.

"Heads up" Arthur said as he nodded to Tommy's office door, warning everyone of his younger brother's approaching presence.

"Arthur, John, we're leaving " Tommy said as he put his coat on, his eyes darting to his Aunt who was staring him down

"You gonna tell us where we going?" John asked as he hopped off one of the receptionists desks placing his peaked cap firmly on his head.

" Just had a phone call. She was seen down by the old Jewellery Quarters over a month ago" Tommy replied as he turned his head to his Aunt. "Problem?" he asked, annoyance in his voice as he cocked an eyebrow at his Aunt's insistent glare.

" Oh no Tommy, you go find your wife...that's if she wants to be found" Polly replied, turning away as Tommy cleared his throat in irritation at her remark. Had Polly finally figured everything out?

"Y/N there's a letter here for you, your Landlady said as she bounced her baby up and down on her hip.

"Thank you Mrs Riley " you replied as you smiled at the baby boy reaching out for you.

"Is it still ok for you to babysit tonight?" she asked as she wiped the dribble off her son's chin with the end of her apron.

" Of course, I don't mind at all. Plus, how could I say no to this little man" you replied as you took him from her, blowing small raspberries to his neck as he giggled in response.

" Ahh thank you. First time me and Mr Riley have gone out since this little one came along. You should really come one day, lots of single men will be there, they will be jumping at the chance to dance with you. We need to find you a husband!" she chuckled smiling to you, unaware that you were already married.

"Why would I need a man when I've got this little bundle to keep me company" you replied looking down at the baby in your arms, a small uneasiness washing over you at the thought of Tommy. " Oh god, it's that time already. I'm going to be late" you said looking down at your watch as you passed the baby back to his mother. Saying goodbye you walked out onto the farm you had been stopping at for the past two months. Having sold the bracelet Tommy had gifted you before your wedding, you had plenty of money to afford a more expensive place to stay, but you needed to keep low. You knew Tommy would be out searching for you, and with that in mind you responded to an advertisement in the local paper for a small lodgings at Riley Farm, the perfect place for anyone wanting to go unnoticed. A small bedsit attached to the side of the farm house in a little village you had never heard of, so inconspicuous that it was not even marked on a map. With everyone knowing the last name Shelby and Tommy knowing you might use your maiden name in replacement, you started using your mothers maiden name from the day you left Arrow House. Word spread fast about Tommy Shelby's anger. Even in the small village you was now living in a you heard talk of how the gang leader of the Peaky Blinder was tearing the city apart. No one knew exactly why the infamous Tommy Shelby's fury had rained down on the smog covered city, but there were rumours of his wife having run off with another man, a rumour you only imagined infuriated him even more. You knew your husband would never cease in his search for you and that you would eventually have to leave and find somewhere else to stay, but for now you enjoyed the peace and quiet the small village gave you, a peace you had forgotten existed. You had started working as a teaching assistant at the village school, a school that accommodated many orphaned children from the war, funded by rich benefactors. You enjoyed your job, the children's laughs and joyful spirits were a pleasant distraction to the memories you held inside of the previous months. But there were still times when Tommy would invade your thoughts and you would suddenly find yourself longing for him once again. Longing for his strong arms wrapped around you, his hands cupping your cheeks as he look down into your eyes, his voice telling you he loved you. Had he still a hold on you, even after everything that had happened ?

"Stop here Arthur" Tommy said as his older brother pulled up in front of a shop in Birmingham's city center.

" What the fuck we doing here, thought she was seen in a jewellery shop?" Arthur replied as he looked out his window at the small building. Giving no response Tommy opened the door as he reached into his pocket to light a cigarette. Looking up, Tommy squinted his eyes at the sign attached to the old stone brick wall, "Johnson & son Pawnbrokers". Breathing out a cloud of smoke he entered the small business, shutting the door behind him.

" Well I guess we bloody follow him then" Arthur said rolling his eyes as John shook his head laughing.

As the three brothers entered the shop, the owner immediately scurried back behind his till, instantly recognising each gang member, the shine from the blade on the front of their caps a stark reminder of their brutality if he dared to anger them.

" Please, I don't want trouble" he said as he put his trembling hands up in defence.

"What makes you think we're here to cause trouble?" Tommy asked as John and Arthur looked around at the various objects for sale.

" A young woman was seen coming in here a few months ago" Tommy said reaching into his suit jacket, pulling out an old picture of you that had clearly seen better days.

" We get lots of people coming in to sell things Mr Shelby" he replied nervously as he looked down at the picture. " I don't remember her, she could have come in when my son was working or maybe my wife, I'm not very good at remembering faces. I'll, I'll go get my wif.." he said only to be interrupted when Tommy pulled a gun to his head, tired of the conversation. The shop keepers eyes quickly darted to the back door next to him as he contemplated fleeing.

"I wouldn't do that if I was you" Tommy said as he clicked the safety off. " I have very little patience these days Mr Johnson".

" Tom, I think you might want to see this" Arthur said as he looked down into a glass cabinet. Narrowing his eyes Tommy lowered his gun, a small smirk playing on his lips as he looked at the trembling man in front of him. Walking over, Tommy's eyes widened at the small bracelet he had offered you before your wedding sitting in a glass cabinet on a red velvet stand. His stomach suddenly felt sick, his hands sweaty.

" Care to explain why the fuck you have my wife's bracelet in your possession?! " Tommy shouted as he marched back over to the shop owner, the gun now pressed firmly against the old man's temple.

" She...she must have come in and sold it, please don't shoot me" he said mumbling as he scrunched his eyes shut, the barrel of the gun cold against his skin.

" No? " Tommy grinned darkly as he twisted the end of the gun further into his flesh.

" P..please Mr Shelby"

" I wouldn't say anything more if I was you, he's two seconds away from pulling that trigger" John said as Arthur watched on.

" Yeh, and I can't be bothered to pull him off another innocent soul for a second time. Got elbowed in the bloody stomach last time " Arthur added as the two brothers looked at eachother smirking, enjoying the torment they were inflicting.

" Right give us the keys to open this thing " Arthur said slapping his hands together, pulling Tommy out of his trance. Dropping the gun from the shop keepers head Tommy scoffed as he watched him fumble to find his keys.

" So is it hers?" John asked as Tommy picked it up, turning it over to see both your initials and the date of your wedding engraved on the back. Brushing his hand down his face Tommy nodded as he enclosed the bracelet in his hand, placing it in his pocket.

" Did she erh..." Tommy said as he started to clear his throat, his mouth suddenly going dry "...did she leave any details, address, number?" He asked as he turned back to the shop keeper.

" I'll check right now for you me Shelby" the owner said hurrying back to his counter as he looked through various pieces of paper, desperately trying to find something as Tommy waited next to him, lighting another cigarette

" What do you think?" John laughed placing a straw hat with an array of different flowers stitched into the side of it on top of his peaked cap.

" Very pretty John boy, you should get it" Arthur said winking to his brother. "Ain't he pretty Tommy?" Arthur laughed trying to get his brother to lighten up.

" Beautiful" Tommy replied flatly as he looked back over to the shop owner, his fingers taping on the counter, his patience disappearing.

"Ah here! I found something. One diamond encrusted bracelet sold in the exchange of, One Hundred and Ten pound King George Sterling to one Miss Y/mothers maiden/N, 12A Ferris Court Birmingham" he said handing the small piece of paper to Tommy, breathing a sigh of relief.

"She's still in Birmingham?" John questioned confused as to how they hadn't found you since they had already checked that part of town. Scrunching the paper in his hands, anger started to build up in him. Was someone helping you?

" Y/mothers maiden/N" Tommy scoffed. " One Hundred and Ten pounds ey? I brought that bracelet for Two Hundred and Fifty" Tommy said, squinting his eyes at the shopkeeper who swallowed harshly as he leaned over the counter to open his till. " One Hundred and Ten pounds, and I'll be keeping the bracelet" Tommy said pulling the same sum of money out, a smirk on his lips as the owner rubbed the sweat of his forehead as Tommy emptied his till." Lads " Tommy said as he walked to the door, his brothers quickly following behind him. " Pleasure doing business with you Mr Johnson" he added, walking out the door as Arthur took the hat of John's head replacing it with slap to the back of his skull instead.

After a long day of working at the school, you and the teacher you were assisting made your way to the village square. You and Mr Brown or as you called him Robert, had grown close to one another over the past weeks. He had become a good a friend, but only a friend. He would never ask questions about your personal life, quickly realising you were reluctant to talk about it whenever the topic arose, he respected your privacy and decided to leave the subject alone. Every day after school had ended he would walk with you to your lodgings, he was a caring man whose friendship you deeply cherished, one you was afraid of Tommy learning about. If your husband knew you was talking to another man let alone him accompany you home, you would certainly both pay the price for his anger, the thought alone scared you into never delving into your past.

" Think the kids really enjoyed your imaginative way of learning the alphabet today. Still don't know how you managed to find an object for each word of the alphabet" he laughed as he walked beside you along the country lane.

" I don't either" you giggled as you both approached the village square, the sun shining down on the quiet neighborhood.

" Thinking about having them do a large drawing for our benefactors visit tomorrow, we are so grateful for their donations. They keep our school going and Mr Sh.." he stopped as you came to a halt, your hand grabbing holding of his arm.

"Y/N are you ok? " he said looking at the fearful expression on your face, your eyes fixed on the back of a smartly dressed man with a peaked cap sitting on a bricked wall.

" He found me...I, I need to go" you panicked, tears welling in your eyes as you started walking backwards letting go of Roberts arm.

"Wait, Y/N" he stopped you, your eyes widening at the man turning around as Robert turned his head to look at what had you so frightened.

" Oh..." You exhaled as tears ran down your face to see that the man in front of you wasn't your husband. Feeling your knees go weak, you stumbled to a nearby bench as Robert held you up.

"You're married aren't you?" He questioned as he looked down at your trembling hands, the indent of where your wedding ring once was only now coming to his attention.

"Yes" you said nodding your head as you blinked away the tears.

" And you're hiding from him?" he asked as you mouthed a silent yes in response whilst you looked desperately into your friends eyes.

" You don't understand, if he finds me.."

" He's not going to find Y/N, nobody knows about this village, they can't even pronounce it let alone find it. You're safe here, I promise" he said, as he placed a comforting hand over yours. " Come on, let's get you back before Mrs Riley starts worrying" he said smiling to you as he reached his hand out for yours. Smiling back you stood up wiping the tears away with the back of your hand as a wave of dread washed over you at Roberts words. Tommy would never stop until he found you, it was only matter of time until he would finally hunt you down.

"FUCKKK!" Tommy shouted at the top of his voice as he repeatedly punched his fist into the wall. " She's playing with me Arthur, she's fucking playing with me!" Tommy yelled as he frantically reached into his pocket for a smoke, anger coursing through his body as he tried to light the cigarette in his mouth. You had deceived him, the address you gave was the address to an abandoned flat on the north side of Birmingham's city center, Tommy was furious.

" Tom, maybe she just wants some space, she'll come back eventually" John said as he stood by the door, his hands in his pockets.

" What the fuck was that, space?!" Tommy said storming over to his brother, Arthur putting himself between them before a fight broke out.

" We'll find her Tom" Arthur reassured his brother as he took out his lighter, igniting the cigarette resting between Tommy's lips.

" She fucking needs me, she's weak without me" Tommy said as he exhaled a cloud of smoke, the nicotine calming his nerves as his brothers looked nervously to eachother at Tommy's strange choice of words.

" Come on brother let's get out here" Arthur said wrapping his arm around his shoulder as he walked with him to the door, John sheepishly following behind. Tommy may be John's brother but even he knew he was not immune to the deadly gang leaders retribution, a retribution he wanted to stay clear of.

Sitting by the classroom window the following day, you looked down at the stack of papers In front of you that needed to be marked as Robert walked into the classroom carrying a pile of books in his arms.

" They'll be arriving soon" Robert said as he placed the books down onto his desk, a film a sweat covering his skin from his frantic state.

" Who?" You replied looking up from the papers you were grading as you took a sip of tea, a playful smile on your lips as you looked at Roberts nervousness.

" The benefactors of the school, remember? They've been funding us for over a year, we can't keep this place going without them, everything needs to be in order for when they come" he replied as he sat down in his chair exhausted.

" Come on Robert, no one would pull funding from a school for orphaned children'' you replied trying to reassure him.

" Yes maybe, but these patrons are not exactly, clean money" he responded as he wiped the sweat from his skin whilst you giggled at the thought of criminals funding anything, let alone a school.

" Well they can't be that bad if they have the heart to donate money to our little school. What did you say their name was?" you replied as you put your pen back into your bag.

" It's Sh..oh god it's them" he answered cutting himself off when he saw their car pull up in front of the school.

" Do I have time to use the bathroom?" you asked getting up with a grin on your face as you turned around to see the Bugatti parked just outside.

" Yes yes but hurry, the boss is... well he's, he's intimidating"

"Intimidating" you repeated, rolling your eyes laughing whilst you made your way to the restroom as the sound of the school door opened.

" Remind me why the fuck we have to go to these things Pol?" Tommy asked as he lit a cigarette.

" Because it's what you do when you own a charity Tommy" she replied shutting the school door behind her.

" Well don't drag it on, I've got things to do. Who chose this school? I've never even heard of this fucking village " he added as he looked at his pocket watch, his patience already disappearing.

" Can you at least try to pretend like you want to be here" Polly said as she gave him a stern look, Tommy forcing a sarcastic smile in response.

" Mr Shelby, Miss Grey. It's so nice to see you again" Robert greeted them as he shook each of their hand, a warm smile on his face as he welcomed them into the classroom. Looking around the small room Tommy perched himself on one of the empty desks, exhaling a puff of smoke as Polly and Robert talked to eachother.

" Do tell us Mr Brown, how are the children doing? Do you have everything you need?" Polly asked as Tommy rubbed his cigarette in between his fingers, looking out the window, uninterested by the conversation that was taking place.

" Oh, they are doing great, we have a new teaching assistant that started a few months ago, she should be back any minute, she's been a real help" he replied pulling out the drawing the children had made for them. Rubbing his forehead Tommy looked ahead of him at the small desk beside the blackboard when something suddenly caught his eye. Scrunching his brow he stood up walking over to the small wooden table in the corner, tilting his head as his eyes narrowed in on the black handbag sitting on top of the old wood. This was your bag, he was certain of it. The sound of Polly and Roberts conversation started to muffle in his ears, the thumping of his heart replaced the echo of their voices as he felt the room closing in on him. Feeling the pressure of his shirt pushing against his throat, Tommy loosened the tie around his neck, his anger rising in him at an unstoppable speed, you had been here all this time.

" When did your new assistant start working here ?" Tommy seethed, turning around to face Robert as he wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.

" Around 6 weeks ago Mr Shelby" he replied taking a step back as he saw the anger in his face.

" At this new teaching assistant " Tommy started to say as bitterness and fury built in his voice. " What's her last name?"

" Well it's Y/mother's maiden/N" he replied as Tommy scoffed in reply, shaking his head in disbelief.

" Miss Y/mother's maiden/N...not Mrs Shelby then?" Tommy answered as he looked Robert dead in the eye.

" What's going on Tommy?" Polly interjected as she watched the the tension build in her nephews face.

" Have you been helping her, hm?" Tommy said raising his voice as Polly's eyes darted to your bag on the table, putting her hand to her mouth in shock at the realisation.

" I... I don't " Robert stuttered as his brain tried to catch up to what Tommy was asking. And then it hit him, he was the man you were hiding from, he was your husband.

" Where is she? Answer me!" Tommy shouted as he slammed his fist down onto the desk in front of him.

Leaving the bathroom, you frowned in confusion as you heard the sound of raised voices coming from the classroom you had just left. Drying the back of your hands on the front of your dress you hurried to the room as quickly as you could, only to come to a stop as your eyes widened in terror, a gasp leaving your mouth whilst your hand grasped onto the door frame in fear you would lose your balance. There, standing in the middle of the room was your husband, Roberts hand holding onto a chair as Tommy loomed over him. Straightening his coat out Tommy turned around to the sound of your presence.

" Hello darling" your husband said, his hands casually in his suit trousers as a wicked smile grew on his lips, his eyes roaming over your body. He had found you.

Letting go of the door frame you started to walk backwards, tears welling in you eyes as you looked back at your husband, his eyes darkening, his face taunt with anger as he waited for you to do what he knew you would.

" One, two, three..." Tommy started to count as if this was a game of hide-and-seek, and he was the seeker. Shaking your head tears fell down your cheeks as you prepared yourself to run, the sound of his countdown ringing in your ears. But Tommy never would count to ten. With the smirk growing on his face, Tommy stopped at three, his eyebrow raised as he took one step forward and you took one step back. Spinning around you ran to the front door as quickly as you could, slamming it shut as the sound of your husband's footsteps chasing after you rapidly approached.

" Y/N Shelby!" Tommy shouted as he ran after you, a sinister smile dancing on his lips. This was all a game to him, he was enjoying it." You never was very good at hiding" he shouted as he watched you run around the corner out on to the road.

" Come on sweetheart, don't I get a kiss from my long-lost wife" he said sarcastically as he hunched down pulling his gun out. Now ducked down running along the opposite side of the hedge Tommy watched you through the small holes in the hedgerow as you rapidly walked down the country lane wiping the tears from your eyes.

"Run rabbit, run rabbit, run run run, the farmers coming with his gun gun gun" Tommy sang as you abruptly stopped in the middle of the road your eyes darting left and right as panic coursed through your body. Turning around you looked back to the top of the road when you suddenly heard someone pushing their way through the hedge, the cock of a gun echoing along the country lane. With a trembling body your turned back around, tears cascading down your face as your eyes turned to see Tommy standing right behind you, his gun pointed straight at you.

"Lost little bunny?"

[user-needs-new-hyperfixation]

Major Moriarty the Patriot spoiler below the cut! (Just the big Irene plot-twist, so if you know that part you’re good to read.) 

Giant disclaimer lol: I am a cis woman. If I ever somehow mischaracterize or misunderstand something about being trans because that is not my own experience, I am absolutely open to being corrected and will always delete anything problematic. Also, because the quotes in question were not written with the intent of being about a trans character, but rather inspired that characterization in a later adapatation, they’re not going to be perfect. (And there’s some underlying sexism in the passages because 18whatever). 

(When talking about the Yuumori character, I refer to Irene as they/them and Bond as he/him.)

ANYWAY, I got really excited by these ACD canon bits that clearly inspired the Yuumori interpretation of Irene! 

(I totally forgot that in canon Irene gets married and Sherlock’s first encounter with her is when he’s dragged in, in disguise, to act as witness at the last minute, which he finds hilarious. 🤣)

Anyway, I know people occassionally pop up trying to argue that James Bond is not a man (thankfully haven’t seen it lately). But I just feel like they’re missing everything that builds up to the death of Irene. EVERY time a situation calls for a disguise, Irene dresses as a man, even when it’s not strictly necessary (at the ball, for example, a female disguise would have worked fine as well). And as their counterpart in the BBC adaptation said, “ You know the big problem with a disguise, Mr. Holmes? However hard you try, it's always a self-portrait.” (Sidenote: lookin’ at you, Dean Winchester, with your campy little costumes that you get so excited to put on.) 

I believe that Irene sees femininity as a tool; the best one they have with which to enact change in the world. I don’t think they have extreme dysphoria, but given the opportunity they are always most comfortable as a man. Beauty and womanhood were all they had with which to be able to reach into places of power and make a difference, but the second the Moriarty brothers come along and say, “Here is a way that you can be part of change as a man,” Irene is happily discarded and James Bond emerges.

And after that, when disguise is called for, James simply...wears a costume. When he goes undercover at Scotland Yard he just puts on a police uniform. He doesn’t even wear a wig. He seems much less invested in going all out with disguise once it’s no longer affording him a small opportunity to live as he is most comfortable. 

As for the slightly odd moment when Irene reappears after Sherlock comes back, that’s a big part of why I don’t see James as having significant dysphoria. I think he’s perfectly capable of having fun spending a night all done up in a dress, once in a very long while, but he’s not nearly as keen on it as he was on dressing as a man when he was living as a woman. He and Sherlock have this kind of back-and-forth game of messing with each other’s heads via disguises and unexpected moves so I think he was just enjoying startling Sherlock with a callback to when they met. (And being sentimental, too.) Also since their goal was to make a big fuss and cause a distraction, having not one but two famous people suddenly reappear after being “dead” was a useful tactic. 

Anyways, while Bond/Moneypenny is my favourite of the (many) Bond ships, if we see a character pop up in Yuumori with any variation of the name Godfrey Norton, we’re getting a new ship. 🤣

Jinora and Ikki, for the character asks please! Oh, and Opal too! :D

Bob cut squad

1: sexuality headcanon 

Okay, so Jinora. I don’t have a defined sexuality headcanon for her but she strikes me as demisexual while I believe Ikki is ace. I think Opal is bi/pan but at the present she identifies as straight.

2: otp 

Jinora’s OTP is Kai. They look very cute together and I think they complement each other well. I don't have a romantic OTP for Ikki. For Opal, although I think her romance with Bolin is cute, I actually like the Korra/Opal pairing since their interactions while Korra was in Zaofu were brief but nice, but I’m not sure if it would be an OTP, so at the moment, her OTP is Bo.

3: brotp 

Jinora in canon has a great relationship with her aunt Kya and in a canon divergence AU, I believe she would strike an unexpected friendship with Kuvira because as I mentioned in my Kuvira headcanon, Kuvira enjoys the company of smart people and Jinora certainly fits the bill while Jinora is perceptive enough to see that underneath the aloof countenance, Kuvira has an awkward side to her that makes her relatable.

For Ikki, her brotp is her uncle Bumi. I think she would also get along well with Wei and Wing Beifong because they share the same carefree, energetic vibes.

Opal is Toph’s favorite grandkid and Toph makes absolutely no effort in hiding this fact, and it's fun to see cranky old Toph being protective and a softie for Opal. I think Opal would also get along very well with Asami. They have a lot in common if we think about it since they’re both rich girls from prominent families who have been underestimated.

4: notp 

Anything remotely incestuous is a big no-go for me for all three characters. I see those and I nope the hell away.

5: first headcanon that pops into my head 

Jiinora has been an avid reader since before she knew how to read well, and she would look at the pictures of the books fascinated. Once she learned how to read, which was earlier than most kids, she would spend hours in the library at Air Temple Island reading so much that she ended up memorizing the complete biographies of Yangchen and Aang. 

Ikki is the main Sky Bison caregiver, no doubt about it. She understands them so well that she can even predict which bison will bond with any Airbender.

Opal will eventually become master airbender and will earn her arrow tattoos before marrying Bolin, and she will eventually lead the new Air Nomads Temple in the Earth Kingdom. 

6: favorite line from this character 

Jinora: There haven't been this many airbenders in one place for a long time either. We have power together.

From Venom of the Red Lotus

What can I say? Jinora more than earned her Master tattoos here with her initiative and leadership.

Ikki: But, I guess the nice part about a family is they'll always be there for you. Even though Twinkle Starchild and Princess Rainbow fight, they still love each other. 

Book 2 Civil Wars part 2

Ikki, remembering what's most important

Opal: I'm glad you're okay, but it's a little late for "sorry". 

From Beyond the Wilds

Opal giving a piece of her mind to Bolin when he was trying to win her back never gets old. 😆

7: one way in which I relate to this character 

With Jinora is her love for books and learning. With Ikki I share the middle child syndrome, and what I can relate to with Opal is her strained relationship with a sibling.

8: thing that gives me secondhand embarrassment about this character 

Being related to Meelo 🤣

Opal: having to explain to everyone that her brother Baatar and Kuvira, who was raised as a "sister" were engaged. 😬

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave?

They’re all pure cinnamon rolls  😊

[hikarielizabethbloom]

Tell you what, what they did to my beloved Marwa is problematic af because it's 2022 and it's not possible that female characters are still treated like this.

Anyway... I still hope that they will bring her back somehow since the character is so universally loved!

That said, the rest of the ep felt normal to me. We're in the part of the story where everything is bad (Nadja's club is failing, baby Colin is not so much a baby which means that at some point Laszlo will have to deal with Colin's death, Nandor is at his worst and really close to lose Guillermo; Guillermo got his first heartbreak) so it made sense to me.

And Freddie falling in love with Freddie was brilliant...

About Nandermo: I'm sorry but Nandor's reaction to Freddie is the most in character reaction ever. He met Guillermo's bf, he felt something akin to jealousy but since he still can't cope with his felling for G, he decided that it was about wanting Freddie and did the most idiotic thing he could do.

Speculating about couples is fun and all but honestly most of the time people come up with ideas that are completely ooc and out of the logic of television and than get upset over nothing. Or maybe I'm just used to the cw destroying my otps in the worst way possible (bellarke and dair, my beloved) so my idea of bad has shifted 🤣 Who knows? 🤷‍♀️

And I'm out

p. s. : Laszlo is the best and must be protected at all costs!

p. s. s. : Djinn, my beloved come back to me! I need to see you for more than two secs!

[annislittleshopofhorrors]

Well, I have to say I know nothing about her. I have never seen or read an interview with her, I only know her photos on IG. I hope she is a good person and not just a clout chaser.//

Unfortunately it seems to be the opposite which is why a small percentage feel some type of way amongst the percentage of this fandom concerned about the bs age gap. Her and Justin are the reason the speculation continued they threw bs breadcrumbs and unfortunately this fandom took the bait. There’s still no confirmation of anything so no need to get riled up. As far as her I don’t know the chick but from the info I’ve gathered between her friend Justin, the Sugarbabies account, the alleged finsta that she unfollowed of them making fun of Chris, her acting career of porn related Lolita content (nothing wrong with nudity but when majority of your past roles are based on forcing this innocent childlike image with sexual undertone ……yeah I’m judging) I’ve seen gifs of her past “acting” role legit playing with herself…..this fandom claims to be fans of Chris but based on what I’ve been forced to come across because of the “detectives” aka stalkers of this fandom and gossip bloggers on other sites who just love to post things…..I’m not fond of this chick and I can see why some are questioning Chris’ attraction to her also the childish nature of her friends and his with the like/unlike follow/unfollow, but like they say, show me who your friends are and I’ll show you who you are. Chris has a history with women who seem problematic….maybe that’s what he likes, maybe he’s actually problematic himself in real life, who knows….again no confirmation of anything, could be strictly friends, he could be dating her mom. 😂 but too many “coincidences”. I just wish they either own up to whatever or keep shit private. To know people are speculating and instead of ignoring it you decide to add fuel to the fire is just a shitty thing to do to your so called fans especially when you volunteer a bs laser focused answer about love when that wasn’t even the question you were asked sir🤣😂.

At the end of the day it’s his life, his choice, his shitshow. Meh I have my own crap to worry about. I just wish this fandom would either wait for legit stuff to come out and then they can lose their shit. At the end of the day, he’s going to settle down one day and I can understand feeling the need to want better for him, but if he feels whatever he does is his best, then that’s his choice. We’re only accountable for ourselves.

There is a small percentage of fans that want the very best for the person they support, to see someone with all the potential in the world make what we deem shitty choices can be difficult to witness because many project their own mess onto others ie (if I were in your position I’d do this this and that) but again we’re not and we don’t know these folks so time for many to go touch grass.

I kid you not if Chris ended up with a woman who the fandom felt was a good fit meaning, has her own, isn’t riling up shit, makes Chris happy, etc I promise you you’d see a side of this fandom that many believe does not exist ie….calm. Lol yes there will be those who have an issue that he’s not dating them but trust with the right woman, I’m sure many would defend said woman and the madness would calm for the most part. I wish that in the future but with Chris’ track record I’d be shocked. Okay enough rambling for me, I’m just here for Dodger content!

Honestly, the more I see or read about her, the stranger I find this constellation. she seems quite immature to me. But maybe this is the image she wants to show. On SM you just see what these people want you to see. But jesus, this Lolita image is too much for me. Seriously, I'm not prude, but with an image like that, you're pigeonholed straight away.

#my opinion

[acourtofquestions]

Finished all three + the bonus Rowaelin HoF chapter (that I genuinely don’t know why it was left out if not for the matter that it does say SO MUCH)

I really love Dorian & Chaol’s friendship, & also the small tie in’s; like them all having met at the ball years ago, on accident, (that they don’t even know now)… it’s fun! A good bonus snippet scene for funsies!

The Assassin and the Captain makes sense if it was deleted as it doesn’t quite align & feels like an alternative to the “sewer reunion” in the first chapters of Crown of Midnight… still it was nice to see them again… it’s a bit bitter to reflect on but I & she did love him back then. It’s just different now & that’s the problem, she grew stronger greater better bigger than just “of Adarlan” or that girl to settle down with, and he grew but only worse as of right now… I miss them… but it wouldn’t have worked out. Not if the world is gonna be saved.

Nehemia & Celaena (I get why it was a bonus, but did really love it as an after book read) it had more little tie ins like the red dress, and barbs like her thinking of Endovier’s people every single day (it makes losing them in HoF even more heavy), and giving them a moment to say what they are to each other before the end “a chosen sister” a “not normal friend” and the beauty in that… I miss them… I loved this

I LITERALLY DON’T KNOW WHY THE ROWAN CHAPTER IS CUT!!! Especially since it’s referenced in Queen of Shadows; the only thing I can say is if I had read it in HoF they would’ve made a LOT more sense REAL fast & I would’ve gotten on board the ship faster (so maybe if that was the point to detour?) still… it was wonderful. Down to the last crumb of chocolate hazelnut cake (which lol reading it where I did in QoS made the next pages of her & Aedion cooking VERY funny; I don’t know if her making breakfast was a sign of forgiveness lol) also I know it’s not the same but from what I know in ACOTAR her cooking for him meant a LOT more… soooooo… oh and Lorcan just gets more concerning *not yay* but my goodness I LOVE ROWAN AND AELIN🥹😭 & since I did have parallels the difference in how they live is big; like right now he won’t sleep in her room cause things are different and there is no way that’s just because he’s in her court no it’s because they aren’t “just friends” anymore and they both know it NOW JUST SAY IT ALREADY but fine I’ll take the morsels like him eating the entire cake😅🥹😂 like the gift & miracle they are to each other🫶

Back to Queen of Shadows…

Just finished up the:

“Who’s your dad” bomb drop, ensuing “blood oath” debate with Aedion, & the following “let me show you how improper I can be” Aelin 1, Rowan 0 start of shenanigans (this is giving Zoyalai ribbon vibes on steroids🤣)

Whatever is going on with “shadow fire” & poor Kaltain (really of everything going on she did not deserve this (not that anyone does) but looking at her as a character; even with her mean girl cattiness, jealous/petty “claim” to Dorian, & albeit attempted murder/problematic poisoning of Celaena; she is just a girl who was stolen by the crown & a woman who has been continuously twisted & abused by greater evils) the whole “character that deserved a hero or at least villain arc” is accurate & if she wants to join Aelin & Lysandra’s “destroy the men that destroyed us” vigilante club I’m all for it.

Being thankful again that Rowan’s back because Chaol is really unhinged right now & Aelin deserves someone who won’t let her believe she’s a monster; honestly Chaol at this point is more likely to become one himself or create one by believing they already are; he’s just so solely focused on his guilt & driven by hatred, misdirection, & fear (it’s infuriating & frankly just sad to listen to his pov).

And now onto Chapter 34 which I think I’m gonna love by the opening paragraph of domesticity alone it’s giving “show boyfriend around hometown” & also somehow “tattooed golden retriever” vibes “who’s gonna know you? — me”

✅ Finally read The Captain and the Prince!!!

☑️ Onto the Princess and the Assassin next!
