Opening night at Pete's Place! 3 for 1 Shots please! Jake with a breeding kink

OOOO this hit right awayyyyy

word count: 094 | warnings: breeding kink, choking, jakes filthy mouth

it's opening night at pete's place!

''You feel me, sugar?'' Jake gasps, hand tightening around your neck as you're pulled harder, deeper against his pistoning hips. ''Feel me deep in that tight little cunt, hmm?''

You squeezed your eyes closed as his fingers flexed against your throat, pulling you upward against his chest; unable to say a single word, just melodic moans that flowed out into the room.

''Jake, please,'' You managed out. ''S'too much, I can't-''

''You can,'' Jake grunted in reply before nipping your ear. ''Gonna fill you up- gonna fuckin' breed you, sugar. Can't leave us then.''

hi! i've been enjoying your RF1 temperature blanket posts a lot! the snippets of dialogue and character analysis you include have gotten me interested enough to finally sit down with the game and give it a proper attempt. so i was wondering, are there any guides or resources you can reccomend? c:

Hey there! I'm so happy to hear this 🥹💕 this game deserves more love and I hope you enjoy it!

My #1 resource was and always has been the Fogu guides: https://fogu.com/hm/rune_factory/index.php

It's a bit of an older website, but it's way more accurate and complete than the RF Wiki pages (in my humble opinion). It's also the only website I used/needed to plan for my Streams!

It's also a dream of mine to create my own RF guides but I'm still in the data collection phase!

Thanks for the ask! It really made my night and I'll work even harder to get those guides out sooner for any other future players interested in giving RF1 a shot! 💞

If you ever have a question the internet doesn't seem to know the answer for, send another ask and I'd love to help out!

Be careful around Victoria….

She’s probably plotting something

I don't exactly have any other choice than to trust her, but thanks for the heads up.

I'll be sure to keep an eye out.

What happened to the other 36 children that were born on October 1st 1989?

Why is Reginald Hargreeves an alien?

Why did Abigail say "Thanks for protecting me on the moon" to Luther?

Why was Jennifer inside a squid?

What happened to Sloane when all the others got to another timeline?

Without the comics, there are still so many questions left unanswered in the umbrella academy show itself.. and it's driving me crazyyy

[unfortunately-a-miraculous-fan]

Lila: Alright, now go up to Marinette and follow the plan, just like we went over.

Chloe: Fine. I hope you know what you're doing.

-later-

-Chloe bursts out of the classroom-

Chloe, covered in lipstick marks: You did NOT mention this part of the plan!!

Lila, filing her nails: That sounds like a you problem.

Absolutely Everything. Not just Survival.

Best Five/Lila moment for you?

Bracelet scene.

Not because it's cute and like a romcom (which is cool, by the way) but for all the meaning! For all that it means for what came before and what came after.

Five and Lila wanted to kill each other and kicked each other's asses pretty badly a few times. They both wore their masks. They both had their demons. And the masks in this scene are totally off, you know.

Five is completely emotionally exposed and vulnerable in front of her and he just wants to please his girl. He's so proud to make a gift for her. In the whole context, it's so incredibly powerful and sweet.

After that, there's no going back, he can never be the same in front of her. And when he gets hurt by something she says or does, you can see on his face how much she means to him because he can't hide when it hurts. She can hurt him with one sentence more than she could when she wanted to smash his head against the mirror (and other things).

I'm actually pretty soft on them because this is something that can take the story and the ship to a whole other level. She's his weakness because he fell so hard for her. And I'm completely obsessed with it.

Ooooh I have a few questions for you to keep the ball rolling! 💚

Would reader and Beau from TMH ever get married? Have a kid?

How would BMD Ben react to their daughter (as a teen/young adult) dating a guy he sees right through as an asshole/maybe a bit like Ben used to be? Would Ben ever tell his kids who/how he used to be when they grew up?

Ooh thanks, Michelle!! 💚💚💚

These are great questions, wow...

Take Me Home (Beau Arlen x Reader):

Would the reader and Beau get married? Have kids?

Oh hell yeah, they definitely would get married! In Echoes, the last one-shot I've written for them, they've just moved in together. I think at that point, she and Beau would be thinking about marriage in the future, but maybe they wouldn't talk about it with each other right away. 😂

We know how Beau is about sharing his feelings, and the reader, being burned before on an engagement and the idea of marriage, knows she loves him but would be hesitant to make that leap...

Until Beau talks to Emily about it. His daughter is more and more becoming his sounding board, since she was so supportive of their relationship from the beginning. Emily would encourage him to get remarried if that makes him happy.

Emily: You're already living together. Doesn't that mean you want to be with her for the long haul?

Beau: Well...yeah. That's just about what it means.

Emily: Then what's the problem?

He can't exactly argue with that logic. 😂 I think he'd be so excited to propose, that he wouldn't even think about the "more kids" conversation until after they're engaged. The reader would think about it first, I think, wondering if he would ever want more kids someday. And if so, is that something she wants too?

Once they actually got around to sitting down and having that honest conversation, I think both of them would be open to it in a "if it happens, it happens" sort of way. Beau would have concerns about being an "older dad," 😂 but in comforting him and reassuring him that he'd do great, because he's already a great dad...it would make the reader realize that she does want kids, and she wants them with Beau. ❤️

(Hell, maybe I'll end up writing that in the future!)

Break Me Down (Soldier Boy x Reader):

How would BMD Ben react to their daughter (as a teen/young adult) dating a guy he sees right through as an asshole/maybe a bit like Ben used to be? Would Ben ever tell his kids who/how he used to be when they grew up?

Ooh, I have an ask that I plan to answer tomorrow that covers how Ben reacts to Lila having a boyfriend or girlfriend, but your question here is even more specific! Love it!

I think if he clocked the "asshole" in Lila's new boyfriend, Ben would call him out immediately. He would try to ban her from seeing him. And when that didn't work, he would 100% threaten the guy off without her knowing.

Ben would have to try to (badly) explain to her why he doesn't trust the guy, and why he's a skeevy little bastard.

Lila: Dad, you don't even know him!

Ben: Oh, I know him. Sweetheart, I know 'em all, better than the back of my goddamn hand. He's a fucking scumbag, and you're more than too good for him. Trust me.

Lila: What do you mean?

Ben would hesitate. He wouldn't want to explain to his daughter that he knows how that asshole's mind works because he used to be exactly like that, before he met her mother.

He probably wouldn't ever want to explain it to his daughter in his own words. Likely she'd have to piece it together from stories she hears about her dad from her mom, and/or her honorary aunts and uncles (like Butcher, Hughie, Loco, and Frenchie).

With his future son, Ben will probably have more "man-to-man" real talks about how he used to get women under the realm of "dad advice." 😅 When the boy got older, Ben would admit to him that he did use to fuck around. (Putting it mildly.)

Ben: I mean, if there was an Oscar for laying it the fuck down, I would’ve taken that shit year after year. Would’ve beat out Burt Reynolds by a fucking landslide.

Son: *grossed out but still confused* Who's Burt Reynolds?

Lmao. 😆

Thank you again for these questions, friend! 💕

[chiefbeifongcanrailme]

Hello!! I would like to request a Linzin fic, when tenzin broke up with lin ofc she is mad but then suddenly starts bleeding, thats when they realize she has been pregnant but it was just a cryptic pregnancyy and her losing her period weren't her going into menopause.

The story basically is just Tenzin trying to get her forgiveness, and lin being "Would you be here knealing if I wasn't pregnant?" I want it to hurt ok🥰

Hello! Here is my attempt at a painful cryptic pregnancy Linzin. I hope this is what you were looking for.

It was that damned healer. That waterbending, icy bitch of a woman- who told her that she was done for couldn't have been more wrong. Lin should've gone to Katara. Spirits, she should have seen Kya instead.

Because now there she was, dismembered in a way she never thought her crime-fighting days could land her. Thankfully, every part of her body was still intact. What she was losing now was nothing she was born with.

The bathroom floor was bright red. Her vision kept shifting from black to red and back.

She only allowed herself to give in to the darkness when she felt the door to her house fling open from under her feet. Someone had entered her home. Someone was looking for her. Someone was going to find her. Someone was going to save both of them.

For the first time, Lin felt pain in her body like never before. This hurt far more than breaking a rib or getting stabbed in the thigh. Her emotions were unfathomable. To think she felt grief for something she never knew she had.

Her entire life would've been upside down had she known this whole time.

"What? A cryptic pregnancy...,"

"Will she be- will they both be—"

"Lin didn't know! She couldn't have known!"

"If you would please just let me see her..."

Lin was in an out of consciousness for what felt like days. Really, it had only been a few hours but it felt like a whole lifetime went by. She couldn't work out whose voices they were. It all felt like she had voices inside her head.

Sleep took over once again. This time it was quiet, dark and numb, like in a vacuum.

The first thing Lin realized was that she could feel her eyelids on her eyes. Her hand twitched, reminding herself that her body was whole. She was still very much there. Her toes wiggled in response. Slowly her fingers contracted, and she forced her eyes open.

She saw more red. This time accompanied with yellow.

What was he doing here? Who let him in? Don't people know better? She didn't destroy Air Temple Island for nothing after all, did she? Some destruction her meltdown had caused. That was the only time she lost control of her bending. Her emotions were volcanic- they had consumed her being, soul and body, and exploded all over the Island.

How was Tenzin both the only and the last person she wanted to see?

“Lin!” He cried, almost to himself.

Lin stirred slowly. She suddenly remembered why her body wasn’t moving earlier. Everything hurt.

“Hey, hey slow down,”

He had leapt off his seat to stand beside her, one hand on her shoulder to stay her movements.

“What are you doing here?” She asked through gritted teeth, pushing all the pain to the back of her mind.

“We almost lost you. I couldn’t—”

“As far as you’re concerned, consider me lost.”

“Lin, she’s alive,” he whispered over her. His shaky hands captured her palm and brought it up to kiss her knuckles.

Lin lost her voice too. There was a lump in her throat now. There was no admission needed, a wave of acceptance came over her.

Motherhood.

Tenzin’s kisses were wet on her hand. When her eyes shifted to him, she saw tears rolling down his face.

“Where- where is—” she managed to croak out.

“In the other room,” he replied, gesturing to the left. “The chief healer is there, caring for both of you. The baby is healthy and happy. And she looks just like you. Just as beautiful. She’s got jet black hair and your eyes and-and—”

“Tenzin, stop.”

The airbender gaped at her.

“You don’t get to be a part of this. You don’t get to just walk in here and take what you want. That’s my child.”

“That’s our child.”

“There is no our because there is no us, Tenzin. That’s my child and—”

“And that’s also my child.”

“How do you know she’s yours?”

He was spellbound. The most joyous moment of his life had reduced to a pit in his stomach. But he knew better. She was saying that just to hurt him. When he peered into that child's eyes, he knew she was his.

“Lin, come on. Please don’t say that.”

But she continued to glare daggers at him.

Just then, hearing the voices, the very chief healer entered the room. She was an old woman, one of the few who were trained by Katara personally. Where was she when she stopped bleeding all those months go? “Oh, look. Mom is awake.”

Lin offered her a weak smile.

“Your little girl is a fighter,” she said, walking over to Lin's bed. “She's a stubborn one- the girl was determined to live.”

Lin audibly masked a sniffle, but Tenzin caught it.

“She gets that from her mother,” he said with a smile.

“Oh, we’re well aware. Captain Beifong, you fought through too. Valiantly, so. If it were up to me, this ordeal alone should make you Chief.”

“Can I see my baby?” Lin asked.

The woman nodded happily, pushing Lin's hair behind her ear affectionately before stepping out of the room.

They swiftly turned to look at each other. “I’m sorry, Lin. I’m so sorry.”

Lin bit back tears by biting her cheek.

“You don’t- you don’t get to…” she whispered, shaking her head in denial.

“We can work this out. We never should’ve ended things.”

“You’re not even in love with me…” Her voice was hoarse.

“Lin, I’m crazy about you. You and only you. And now that mini-you you just brought into this world.”

“What about your soulmate?”

Tenzin slapped his forehead. “The acolyte? She’s so far driven from reality, she wouldn’t know a soul from a chair.”

Lin almost let herself chuckle with relief. But she didn't. She couldn't just laugh off the thing that Tenzin allowed to weaponize against their relationship.

“No,” she said. “No, you can’t- I’m vulnerable right now. You can’t snake your way back into my life. If it wasn’t for my pregnancy- if it wasn’t for nearly losing your child, you wouldn’t have even been here. You would be with your soulless chair mate on your cold, lifeless Island. You’re dead to me, Tenzin.”

“Lin, of course, I would. I would always be there for you. Please—”

“You value your legacy far more than you’ve ever loved me. I kept putting your first and you kept making me fight for footnotes in your life.”

“That is not true!”

“Oh, but it is!”

“Lin, I have always been in love with you. I can't remember a time in my life when I haven't loved you, truly.”

“Then why would you leave me for her? Why when I had just found out that I couldn't bear you the airbenders you so wanted. The unborn children you put before me, a whole person you claim to be so in love with.”

“I was wrong. I was so very wrong," he cried, head in his hands. "I didn't know you couldn't have children. You pushed me into Pema's arms—”

“Don't you utter her name!”

Tenzin sighed. “You told me to be with her. That she would give me my airbenders. I only did that to free you from my burdens. You didn't deserve to—”

The door creaked open again, the same healer returning with their child in her arms. The two of them fell silent immediately.

“Here, Lin. Do you want to hold her?” The healer asked.

Lin’s sniffle was enough of a response.

As she cradled her arms- as best as she knew anyway- the healer slowly placed the baby in her mother's embrace. She was so little- so much smaller than Lin imagined. She could no longer hold back her tears.

She felt Tenzin’s hand on her shoulder.

“She’s perfect,” he whispered.

“She is,” Lin replied, feeling placated like never before. She eased up. Her mind was no longer clouded- clarity had taken over. “I can’t believe we created that.”

“I can,” he replied, kissing her head.

“Don’t make me ask you to leave,” she said, curtly.

“I’m never leaving, Lin.”

She huffed, side eyeing him as she prepared herself for what she was about to say. She felt certain about her decision.

“You’re leaving, Tenzin. I will allow you to be a part of my daughter’s life so long as you vow to stay out of mine.”

Tenzin watched her, heart beating faster in his chest, as she glared at him with storms in her eyes. He didn’t have the words to respond.

“You stay on your Island and I stay in my city. We only have our exchanges on the ferry. I will not step foot onto Air Temple Island and if you so much as even breathe Republic City’s air, I will arrest you and have you sent to the Dai Li’s prison in Ba Sing Se.”

“Lin, that can’t be sustainable—”

“I don’t care what you think.”

Lin pressed her baby into her bosom. Nothing mattered anymore. Her entire life would be dedicated to protecting this baby.

Tenzin would do the same, she trusted him that much. He would be a good father to her. She would have to find a way to be okay with that acolyte being a part of her daughter's life. But perhaps, that would happen with time.

“I love you. And I respect your wishes. But can you grant me just this one thing?”

“What is it?”

“Can we have one moment? Just a single moment where we, as her parents, hold her together with love. If I am to leave you alone, I just need a glimpse of what might’ve been to keep me going.”

Lin sighed.

“Let’s- let’s name her,” he suggested, realizing that he was babbling. “Together. Right now. That’s all.”

“Sure,” she gave out a low huff of defeat.

Lin shifted on the bed as Tenzin took a seat beside her. He placed one hand under Lin’s, supporting their daughter’s head while his other arm ran around her waist. He squeezed her into his embrace and as much as she wanted to fight it, she gave in and rested her head against his chest. It felt right. As if the entire universe conspired to allow her just this one moment. Even if it wasn't made to last.

“How do you like the name Dalha?”

Lin scrunched her nose in disgust. She kissed her daughter’s head, making her coo in a way that made Lin’s heart flutter.

“What about Meng?”

“No,” Lin replied with a gasp. A yawn escaped her mouth urging Tenzin to pull her tighter.

“Jin?”

Lin gave her baby a cheeky a smile and said, “Don’t worry, kid. I won’t let your daddy name you anything as unsavory like that.”

“Well, daddy is trying. Mommy hasn’t made a single contribution.”

Lin huffed. “How about Lila?”

“I love that name. Lila Beifong. We could call her Lili too!” Tenzin glanced over at Lin only to find her looking straight at him. There was a softness in her eyes. He cupped her face with one hand and drew her in. His lips slowly met hers. It had been far too long since he had kissed her. Lin melted against his touch- she was exhausted. She just needed to be held, to feel loved- if only for a moment.

Tenzin continued kissing her, smiling, making the most of the moment with the mother of his child- the only woman he wanted to kiss for the rest of his life.

When they pulled apart, Lin passed Lila on to Tenzin to hold. He delicately held her as Lin wiped her dried up tears with her palms.

“Say your goodbyes.”

Tenzin bit his bottom lip. “Thanks.” He admired his daughter, he couldn’t help but smile. A joy so unfathomable, he couldn't wrap his head around the grief that was yet to set in. “I love you so much,” he whispered to Lila. “You’re my world, Lili. You and your mother, you're my earth, my air, my everything.” He kissed the top of Lila's head before handing her back to Lin.

He stood up, and knowing she wouldn’t stop him, he planted a kiss on Lin’s forehead one last time. “I love you. And I always will.”

“I'll be sure to thank Saikhan for letting you know of my whereabouts. If it weren't for him, you never would've found us."

"Lin, I would've found you with or without my intel. Who, by the way, wasn't Saikhan."

"Who was it then?" she asked.

Tenzin chanced another kiss to her cheek and replied. "I'll save that story for the ferry when I pick Lila up next week."

“Fine,” she said softly, but there was a hint of a smile in her voice.

Tenzin beamed, making his way over to the door. “I’m going to win you back, Beifong. Just you wait. I look forward to those thirty minutes on Yue Bay.”

Before Lin could conjure up the metal tray beside her into mini spheres to throw in his direction, the airbender was gone.

if you were to include him in the blanket, what color yarn would you assign raguna?

Hey there!! Thanks for the question, I've actually been asking myself the same thing recently!

Honestly, I've always associated Raguna with brown! Not just because of his hair but also because his entire outfit has brown accents in it.

To avoid his colour being too close to Felicity's, however, I'd probably go with a orange/brown that matches his shirt in the DS cover.

I also like the brown makes me think of the original Rune Factory logo (vs the later titles which all had an accent colour).

From my experience, though, browns have been really tricky to find the right yarn colour, so I might end up settling for my second choice: a dark blue (to match his eyes and blue undershirt).

---------

Fun fact: It may seem odd for me to exclude him from the blanket, but originally I was planning on writing a Raguna PoV Diary as a way to document my playthroughs. I quickly realized that writing about chopping wood for a week would get...really stale. That's when I started hearing about Temperature Blankets and thought "what if I could Rune Factory this?"

I still wanted to keep the project in a Raguna PoV, but I'm still thinking about adding him in the end! I'm thinking of making the blanket's border alternate between him and my OTP choice, but we have a loooong way to go before I start thinking about that! Haha

Which is your most hated character in Miraculous Ladybug?

Can I list three?

I'm sure you can guess why.

There was a lot of potential in this character! When I heard that she was gonna get a Miraculous, I was excited to see what would lead up to that! I was curious to see what the kick in the butt would be to get her on the path of redemption!

And I was sorely disappointed. Instead of getting better, she got worse and even more entitled, and it didn't help that she was enabled by Number Three...

...let me tell you something.

I was a Marichat shipper. I was. It was one of the first ships I published fanfic for. If you look on my Wattpad, you can find a lot of Marichat shit. I ate it up, and I was super excited when we learned that there would be a Balcony Scene. I got even more excited when I learned that the episode, Glaciator, came out on my birthday.

What did I get? I got disappointment and discomfort when Chat Noir threw a temper tantrum over Ladybug not showing up for a plan she didn't agree to. He used his friends, who expected him to be there, as an excuse to sneak out. He complains all the time about not having time for his friends, and then doesn't spend time with them.

Slowly, I started to notice more and more off-behavior from Adrien Agreste and slowly grew more and more angry with this show, from telling Marinette to stay quiet to publicly enjoying Ladybug being uncomfortable. He is the symbol of how out of touch the creator is with young girls. It got to the point where I announced that I was never writing fanfic again and was solely gonna focus on my original writing because I was so sick of writing salt and knew it was unhealthy.

I didn't keep that promise, but I still hate Adrien. I still hate Chat Noir. I haven't taken down my old Marichat fics because I feel like they're an important showcase of where I started from, but I can't bring myself to write anything involving Adrien in a romantic relationship with anyone.

Hii! This is for the story requests. Could you do a chloe/lila fic, fall themed with playful flirting/bickering? Please no angst, just pure fluff, my heart can't handle it🤧

Ive been obsessed with this ship since it was introduced😖

Keep up the great work and take your time with it👍🏾

I had so much fun with this one that it's becoming cannon to my fic btw

Chloe grumbled to herself desperately as she searched through her bag, all alone in the locker room while Y/n and Adrien were chatting up a storm. She knew she had emergency lipstick, she always had emergency lipstick. Or, at least Sabrina did.

"I can't believe you, Sabrina. How dare you. Now I have to look through my own bag." Chloe huffed. "Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous."

"I agree," A voice made Chloe jump as she yelped.

"AHH! Oh." Chloe's shoulders relaxed and tensed at the same time. "It's just you."

"Just me." Lila chuckled. "And how dare Sabrina, couldn't she have thought of you when she got sick?" Lila cooed as if to a child.

"Yes!" Chloe shouted. "Finally, someone who gets it."

Lila made a face, briefly dumbfounded.

"Wow, you really are stupid." Lila snickered. "You're lucky you're cute or you'd have nothing."

Chloe looked up from searching her bag once again.

"Repeat that last part?"

"That you're stupid?" Lila repeated, face red.

"No. The other part." Chloe pressed.

"There was no other part." Lila insisted.

"Oh, it's okay." Chloe smiled. "I know I'm beautiful."

Lila couldn't tell if her face was red from embarrassment or annoyance. Most likely both.

"Of course you do." Lila rolled her eyes.

"Oh? So you agree with me." Chloe chuckled.

"Whatever you want to believe, princess." Lila crossed her arms. "Still looking for your lipstick without your maid? I think you're falling apart without her."

"Sabrina is not my maid!" Chloe shouted; for a second, Lila thought Chloe might actually defend her. "Maids don't get sick and leave you."

"Oh, poor you. A princess without her maids is nothing but a common in a fancy dress." Lila patted Chloe's head dismissively.

"Nonsense! I still have my prince charming." Chloe flipped her hair. "Now if you excuse me, I was looking for my lipstick."

"The one in Sabrina's bag?" Lila lifted an eyebrow, amused.

"No!" Chloe went red. "My backup lipstick."

"You mean the backup lipstick in Sabrina's bag?" Lila's eyes crinkled in a bemused smirk.

"I--! I--!" Chloe short-circuited before returning to her default solution. "Then give me your lipstick!"

"Wouldn't that make me your prince charming?" Lila uncrossed her arms and rested them on her hips.

Chloe wanted to say it would make Lila a maid, but she restrained herself--biting her lip.

"More like a knight." Chloe grumbled.

"Your knight in shining armor?" Lila pretended to ponder for a second. "Hm... that'll do."

Lila reached into her bag and took out her lipstick. Chloe grabbed for it but Lila caught her hand.

"Ah, ah, ah." Lila chided, wagging a finger. "A princess shouldn't apply lipstick herself."

Chloe went red, furious.

"You--" Chloe was quickly shushed with the same finger as Lila popped the cap to the lipstick and twisted it to reveal the red pigment.

"This is degrading." Chloe complained.

"Nonsense, princess." Lila chuckled. "Now, pucker your lips."

Chloe did as commanded, her face burning. Lila leaned forward, applying the lipstick. Slower than she applied it on herself. She traced the contours of Chloe's lips, her own face inches away from Chloe's--but far enough away to be excusable.

"There, you're all dolled up now." Lila smiled.

"That was unnecessary." Chloe commented, zipping her bag closed.

"Nonsense." Lila tutted. "I do that for everyone I lend lipstick to."

Lila tapped the tip of Chloe's nose before turning around and beginning to walk away. Chloe felt an unexplainable sting of jealousy in her stomach.

"You do?" Chloe asked, barely preventing her voice from cracking.

"I do." Lila lied.

"Th-then!" Chloe raised her voice to stop Lila from walking away. "You will stop doing that for everyone else!"

Lila turned around.

"Is that a command, princess?"

Chloe nodded.

"Very well. I will only apply lipstick to you."

Lila turned around before Chloe could see how red her face was.
