I think?#anyway. it’ll be weird but hopefully not TOO weird#also before anyone freaks out. my parents got married when they were 22 and they’re still together#the only divorce that has happened in my entire family was my aunt and that was for abuse reasons#but yeah. people in my family marry young and stay married a long time so it’s fine. my sister has lots of support#and also her fiancé is such a legend. he’s very cool

𝕎𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕋𝕙𝕖𝕪 𝔻𝕠 𝕎𝕙𝕖𝕟 𝕐𝕠𝕦’𝕣𝕖 𝕊𝕚𝕔𝕜
Incl. Umemiya, Hiragi, Tsubakino, Choji, Togame
Umemiya
Having grown up in a group home, Umemiya knows how to be the best care giver ever
That being said: he’s also insanely clingy and affectionate on his worst days
He’s attentive to a T
With Kotoha’s help he’s bringing you homemade soup, full of fresh veggies from his garden
He’s making you tea and keeping water bottles near by whenever you even mention wanting a drink
Sends his four kings out to watch over while he’s with you because he refuses to leave your side until your healthy— doesn’t matter if it’s a cold or the flu
Still cuddles with you, despite you telling him he’ll get sick— he tells you his love and affection will make you feel better
Whenever your fever spikes he’s quickly getting a wet cloth, laying it on your forehead and humming a wordless tune or telling you stories softly
He’s there to wake you up whenever you have fever induced nightmares, and holds your hair back if you rush to the bathroom to be sick
If you even feel the tiniest bit insecure because you feel gross and greasy he shuts that down: by telling you:
“In sickness and in health!” “That’s— those are wedding vows?” “Ha, yeah! But think of them as…pre-engagement, pre-wedding vows now! Hey— your face is all red, did your fever spike again?”
If you’re far enough into your relationship he’ll help you bathe: his hands are gentle as he washes your hair, no wandering touches as he helps you clean your body
He’s so soft you nearly fall asleep in the water, lulled into a serene peace by his soft voice and gentle touches
He combs your hair once it’s dry enough, braiding it to keep it out of your face and wrapping you your freshly washed sheets you have no idea when he had time to clean
Overall; 11/10 to take care of you when you’re sick
Even if he does end up getting sick himself after
Hiragi
You probably got sick after he warned you to bring your coat with you or not to stay up too late let’s be real
Dad sighs and twitching eyes
But he’s buying all the best meds and electrolyte drinks
I personally believe this man knows how to cook so he’s making you homemade soup, congee and other things his mom used to make him when he was sick
Brings a type of lemon “candy” that helps with your throat, knows they work because he keeps them on him in case Kaji needs them
He stays with you, but he gives you space
1. Because he needs to make sure he doesn’t get sick— he has to take care of you firstly, and secondly he cannot let Umemeiya free of him for too long
2. Because he knows you’ll want space occasionally; to sleep, to rest, to regenerate your social battery
While you nap he’s cleaning around; washing and folding clothes, doing dishes, organizing your mail— he’s completely husband material
When you want him near he’ll have you lay your head on his lap, and he’ll run his fingers through your hair and read to you— literally any book you choose he’ll read without hesitation
He’ll be so attentive and supportive when you’re sick, and he makes sure to continue to give you vitamins even after to help you avoid being sick again
But even when you are he’ll be there again
15/10 he’s just so HUSBAND MATERIAL
Tsubakino
LOOK
if there’s one thing anyone knows about me it’s I am a Tsubaki stan first and a human second
that being said
I imagine him taking care of you being sick is, while sweet, also a bit panicky
I imagine he has this weirdly insane immune system so he’s hardly ever gotten sick, and he’s also an only child so this isn’t super familiar territory
but he tries
does so much research he might go a bit overboard
“My darling! I got cough medicine, fever reducers, cooling masks, some cough drops Hiragi suggested! I got some water bottles and Suo-chan suggested different teas— I wasn’t sure which one would be best so I got all six! Nirei-chan said to get electrolytes so I got different flavors of those! And Kotoha-chan made soup! And congee! And I can order more, in fact I have a few different soups on the way!”
he just hates seeing you feel so bad
he’s a ball of nerves around you, always checking in on you and asking what you want, what you need, what you’d like
you can’t even be annoyed he’s so sweet
he helps you bathe, much like Umemiya, he’s sweet and attentive
he brings over his own stuff too; bathbombs, shower steamers, hair masks, face masks
he can’t make the illness disappear but you’ll at least feel clean and good on the outside
he takes his time with your hair and face, and he’s basically your personal masseuse in the bath
you’re never felt so relaxed despite being as sick as a dog
even though you’re sick he’s still quick to press kisses to your cheeks and forehead, face red from fever, embarrassment, and lipstick stains now
paints your nails while you rest with a cold press on your head, tells you about the latest debacle between Umemeiya and Hiragi and Sugishita and Sakura
by a miracle he doesn’t get sick
and he stores all the leftover meds and electrolytes (there’s a lot) between your place and his so he’s prepared next time
overall: 1000000/10
realistically: 10/10 (but always 100000/10 in my eyes)
Choji
oh boy
o h b o y
let it be known you try to hide the fact you’re sick from him for as long as possible
read: you fail
he’s showing up at like 7am, waking you up and charging in
did he bring anything?
of course
he’s brought snacks
not healthy ones
you’re not hungry because you’re nauseous, so he just stores them in your fridge and comes to cuddle you
he’ll wait on your every command don’t get me wrong
want water? he’s grabbing you a glass
need to go to the bathroom? he’s helping you up and walking you there, waiting outside the door and helping you back
bored? he’ll tell you all the thoughts in his head! and there’s a lot!
hungry? he’s grabbing those snacks for you!
he’s attentive and sweet, but he definitely is spoiled by Togame so much he’s not entirely sure how to take care of a sick person
but he’s strong so he’ll just beat your illness for you!
he’ll hold you while you rest, turn your fan on when you say you’re hot, turn it off when you’re cold
he tries to braid your hair while you rest, it’s messy but he tried
he ends up getting sick before you’re even better yourself
now Togame is tasked with coming to your place and taking care of both of you
overall: 7/10
he tries he really does
but he charges in with no instructions and just love
which is great but doesn’t treat the flu
Togame
he probably has taken care of an ill choji (^) so he knows what he’s doing
the patience of a saint holy—
he comes to see you when you’re asleep, and he’s silent as he unpacks stuff from the nearby convention store
you wake up startled at him just chilling, probably drinking a ramune and reading something
he keeps his voice soft as he asks if you’re hungry or thirsty
helps you sit up as he hands you a water bottle, and if your hands are too shaky he’d holding it for you to drink out of
he won’t even let you open your mouth to apologize before he’s giving you that stupidly soft smile and telling you he’s happy to take care of you
he keeps the curtains shut so the light in your room is dim, and he brings in candles with your favorite scent so the lights don’t hurt your eyes and the scent helps you feel calmer
not much of a cook himself when it comes to specific food to help you, but he grabbed take out on the way and heats up the perfect portions whenever you’re hungry
not too much so you leave food on the plate but not too little so you’re still hungry after
the man that he is
can definitely see him massaging your hands, your arms and your shoulders cause you’re tense from feeling ill
keeps a bucket or a bag nearby in case you get sick and can’t make it to the toilet
does a little braid to keep your hair out of your face, jokes about how he learned how to braid his hair so he’d he perfect at it for you
tries to brew you tea, and either burns it or under-steeps it
you both opt for just water for the time being
doesn’t get sick, but definitely sleeps for an entire day after you’re healthy
you both do actually— a long sleep cuddled up together
overall; 13/15 i think i made myself fall more in love with him

Another Request ~
Macaque falls in love with Y/N? Maybe. It'd definitely be one-sided for sure.
Sorry, I'm just a sucker for the guy. Also, one-sided love is so fun to read. Loved the last request you answered psycho Macaque for the win.
- Phoenixeclipse-Lmkau 🩷
In front of him, two pieces of fabric. He pondered deeply, massaging his chin. Deep in his thoughts.
"Um, yes...yes, I see..." He esclaimed before throwing the two samples in the air. "They're the same color! I'm regretting helping you, Y/N!"
You laughed, putting on the small tablet the other samples of silk that the third and fifth sisters had brought for your dress. He collapsed on his back, in desperation, while you reached him, kneeling near him.
"I told you that it was a dirty job."
"Yeah, yeah, I know...butbi really wanted to help! As a future husband, it is my duty! And...for other reasons!"
"Other reasons?" You lay next to him, allowing him to take you in his arms, hugging you for comfort.
"Well, I can't see you in your dress, but I can imagine you!"
"Aaaw, aren't you the romantic one?" You said kissing his nose, which he enjoyed—maybe too much.
He guided you to his lips, depending on the kiss, trying to avoid tò becoming too aggressive and still taking the best from it.
"Oh gods," he gasped, his face contorted in a painful expression. "I regret this too!"
"Aaaw, baby, you wanted to keep your hands on yourself until the wedding night! Your words are not mine." You said with a mischievous grin on your face. He had to bite his tongue, avoiding Just screw everything up.
"Not the best idea of mine..."
"It was romantic! A lot to be fair."
"Yeah, and you're a walking temptation,he sighed in defeat. You had already shared your bed, to use others words, but the fact that he knew how good you were for him and putting some stakes made everything just so hard. He had urges, and so do you.
"Well," you continued caressing his chest. "We said nothing about kisUMPF!" And he didn't give you the chance to continue.
You stayed like there, enjoying each other in that small moment, well knowing that the line between a kiss and a falling into your desire was thin like hair.
A series of giggles and shush woke you up from the trance, which made you both remember that you were technically in an area full of other mobkeys instead of your shared house.
"Just in time, uh?"
"Yup!" You said standing up, reaching the door.
"AH AH! Brother, get a room, please!"
"So scandalous!"
"As your king, I demand respect!"
The group of monkeys Just started at him, expecting them to show respect?! Yeah, sure, believed that!
Míngzé, one of the more composed ones, and the one that had opened the door, with some awkwardness, had stepped inside.
"There's someone who said he knew you, brother." He asked for you and Lady Y/N."
"Someone?" He said sitting up.
"He's a brother from afar!"
"Must be Shen!" You said with a joyful voice, "Maybe he had finally decided to come visit!"
"In that case, let's not make wait the forefather!" Yuán Fèn made a Jumo on his feet, causing some laughter from his younger siblings while others ran away to go back to their duties. The day couldn't go wrong!
///
"Hello darling..."
A white furr as snow, a pair of glowing yellow eyes, emphasized by a deep black sclera, and six ears that heard your heart stop beating, in your chest.
He just smiled; it seemed an innocent, kind one, but you were sure that inside he knew that you were struggling to not just run away from him. He feaked ignorance; he was good at lying.
Yuán Fèn held you so close that you could feel his heartbeat racing, his breath getting heavy, and his eyes literally digging daggers in the other monkey.
"Look at you! You're radiant, you know that? Honestly, you're looking like AGH!" The Macaque was able to stop the sudden attack of his counterpart just because he had his weapon ready, just in case.
"What are you doing here?!" Yuán Fèn was gnashing towards him; the other monkeys were now screaming and mimicking his own action, ready to throw rocks and whatever kind of weapon was in their hands. The other one smiled, amused by the fact that he could still pull some stringer on you and him.
"Can't a monkey try to get in touch with his kind?!"
"Your kind?! AH! We have nothing to do with you!"
"Still salty for what I did? You almost kill me; I should lash out at you." He huffed, husing his tail to get free from the stalemate.
"I'm not here to cause troubles."
"Do you think I believe you?! After what you've done?!"
"Well, no, but I guessed that two kind ones like you would hear my pleas." He looked at you; he seemed to be mocking the fact that you were renowned to be a kind soul around these parts. You wanted just to get smaller and smaller, trying to disappear from his sight. Yuán Fèn had already blocked his eyes on you, putting himself in front of him.
"She's the kind one; I would love to smash your head."
More than a threat, the macaque rollers his eyes bored by the other monkey's hyper-portective behavior. Seriously, couldn't he just move in and forget that he tried to kill him, take his place, and almost amputate your leg? What a bommer.
"Listen, "he sighed," as much as I would love to kick your ass again."
"Yes, of course. Dream on."
"Thank you; I'm really here without malevolent intent! I...Need your help." By saying that, he gestured both of you.
You widened your eyes: he needed your what?!
Yuán fèn face contorted in a growling expression; he didn't buy it a single word, the Macaque was saying, and nobody wanted to hear his stupid plea of help. A small revenge for what he had done before...
The Macaque understood that the two of you weren't convinced, so he tried more.
"I've nowhere to go. As far as I know, the Celestial Realm never saw monkeys in a good way, and those old Bián huá survivors aren't the most nice with our kind. And, since it's clear I'll never regain my full power, at least I wanted to plead for asylum."
Yuán Fèn emitted an outraged scoff. How dare he ask for asylum?! Especially after what he had done! He went to you, moving away to discuss the matter, even if, for him, nothing was to debate.
"I'll make him leave. Just give me a few minutes, okay?"
You looked at him...then to the ground, biting your cheeks.
"...OOOOH no!" He crossed his arms. "You can't really consider him staying here!"
"Yeah, but...think about it! If he's here, we can control him, and he can have a home! Is a win-win!"
"I don't want a win-win; I want me to win and him to leave!" The monkey was exasperated by your suggestion. You sighed, massaging your temples.
"I want him around as much as you, but... leaving him dying out there won't make us different from him."
"...so you're basically telling me to be the bigger person?"
"Basically, yes."
He groaned in defeat. You were right, he had to be a good king, and even Wukong would prefer to be on good terms with that monster.
And, since now he knew that he was not a dead corpse rotting somewhere, he couldn't just let him run off like he was nothing. Again, you were right: keeping him near you both was a good way to monitor him.
"How much I wish to be the small one..."" he turned toward the macaque, suppressing the urge to smack away that smirk of his face.
"You can stay."
"Aaaw, brother, I know you-"
"Do not, Brother, me! I haven't finished!" He pointed the iron rod toward him. "If I even heard, no, sniff, that you're planning something, I'll erase the memory of you from this world. Am I clear?!"
His smirk disappeared from his face, sending the seriousness in the other tone.
"Crystalline."
///
You were so regretting it, and you and no one to blame but yourself. You were too arrogant to believe that you could stand even in the same place as him, and it was clear to everyone that this thing was stressing you out.
"Big sister, are you there?"
You looked at the small monkey, confused on why you were cleaning that pearl for five minutes straight.
"...y...yes!"
"You look worried... Is that creepy guy again??!"
When the small one started to greet her teeth like a small piranha, you were already in awe at how such a small cutie pie like that could become such a menace to the world.
Well, all the monkeys were cute until someone of their own felt threatened or there was a danger around. Which, to your prospective, were now both on the plate right now.
"Nooo, no, no! Please no more grrr and no more rawr here! I Just Need...some peace, that all."
Thing that was true, again, you were in a mental mess since you both decided to let that psycho stay at Mount Huaguo. You couldn't focus correctly, and the few times that you had to breath was when you had to visit the Spider sister to talk about the wedding and everything.
Every day was another fight. Despite you both letting the macaque stay, Yuán Fèn had always shown nothing but animosity towards the other male, and this had been murrored by the other monkeys.
Even if he was supposed to work alongside others, the same monkeys had tried to attack him or push him away. During the meals, he was forced to go and eat away from the group, and even the night he had to sleep somewhere else.
You stayed silent, observing the flowers and the flowers around you.
"Say, why don't you bring me one of these snacks that I like? ...We can share!"
The promise of free food made the monkey dart from her spot to the door in a second, disappearing in a few screams and laughter.
You too laughed with yourself, giving you the chance to calm lady down and relax in the silence. Who knows, a good action could have led to such successful events? Well, it was better to not think about it at the moment...
You were almost there, ready to fall in a small nap, when you sensed the light of the sun from the window was clouded by something. You didn't think about it at that moment...
"Slacking of work, uh?"
You gasped and rose up immediately, looking at the window. His white tail moved slowly in waves, his chin on his hands, looking at you with some half-open eyes.
You jumped on your own two feet, pointing one of the many hairpins at him as a makeshift weapon.
"What are you doing here?!"
"I'm enjoying the view, of course!" He used that cheerful tone, reminding you of the day that he almost made you list a leg. He snickered, lowering down the hairpin with his tail.
"Relax, I'm not here to make a mess...for now."
You rolled your eyes, forced now to go back to the jewelry instead to relax like you were doing a few minutes before.
"Those are a lot of treasures here," he said, getting down from the window and taking one of the gens with his foot. "Have you decided to steal someone?"
"They are garmet for my wedding robe. Friends had sent too much of these, and now I had to decide which one I wanted."
"Wedding,?!" He threw away the gen that you caught before he could break it. "And since when did monkey get married?!"
"Since," you said, start to save everything from his grasp," me and Yuán Fèn are pretty much very in love, and since it's something nice to be done."
"OOOOH, so you covered the poor king?"
"I didn't coerce him!" You said offended." He proposed, and I accepted! ...like you could understand..."
Why he had to put his nose in your business?! He was lucky that it was you around and not your fiancé since he was already One step closer to smashing his skull.
"And by the way," you said, fixing on yourself another pair of earrings. "Why are you here? Aren't you suppose to work?"
"Well, I did have the intention to help around, but," he said, sitting on the edge of the window, "your future husband's little servants didn't enjoy my presence...so I left them."
"Wait, wait," you started to face him, a little more concerned than before. "They told you that?"
"Not exactly the same words, but gritty teeth and snarls are quite explanatory themselves."
So it wasn't just about the food and sleep, even in the working hours...you started to scratch your arm, nervous from this revelation. A part of you wanted him to suffer, yes, but another knows that this was too much.
Despite their mimicking of normal human lives, monkeys were still monkeys. He was a stranger—one that once had even hurt you and their leader. If you two felt unsafe, the entire group needed to intervene, and even if you did accept him, more for pity than for anything else, you still felt uneasy around him, and they were acting for you.
"Maybe I could...try to talk to them?"
He arched his head, now looking at you with a curious glim in his eyes.
"I mean, tò let you help. tò Let you work and don't make a fuss about it."
He stayed silent after your suggestion. Then he started to giggle, then chuckled, until he just erupted in a big laugh.
"You...want...you want to...oh oh! This is hilarious! You think that they will listen?!"
"Yes, they will!" You responded with an offended tone in your voice.
He calmed his laugh and took a step closer to you. This time, you didn't flitch.
"Darling...Y/N...honey, this is not a human village...of the monkey king hates me more than everyone else does!...but it's not all bad."
"Ah!" Now this was your time to laugh, feeling more irritated with those nicknames. "Pray to tell?"
"Firstly," he started with his finger, "I can do what I want, and no one cares what I do until I do something bad. And second..."
He paused, looking at your figure. Your foot was tapping on the ground, your eyes were thinging, and your face was in an annoyed glare. He stopped more closer; only now you noticed the vicinity, which made you uncomfortable. His finger touched your face, giving you a small buffet on your cheek.
"Of course I'm busy working; I can't mess with you."
You gulped; all your bravado left your body.
He enjoyed that view, seeing you all a mess. After trying to sound so strong. He could really look at that forever...until a small monkey started to throw at him snacks that you like.
///
"You want WHAT?!" You covered your ears, while Yuán Fèn had literally thrown away the apples that he started to pick.
You had to avoid the fruits too, but you never lost sight of your husband.
"It's just letting him work! It's not such a bad option!"
"I would love to help you, Y/n, but you can't ask the others to accept him!"
"But why?!"
"Because," he jumped down the tree, cleaning one of the fruits that he had picked and gave it to you. "Monkeys don't work well with threats."
"I'm not saying that you have to threatened them!" You have a bite of the fruit. "I'm just saying that they need to learn how to cooperate!"
He hummed, thinking about your idea. He knew how kind you could be—too much for your own good, but he had to admit that you were right on your own part.
"So... less he stays around, less he's going to do evil staff?"
"More or less, yes!"
He hummed again, clearly reconsidering your idea. And, by the way, he needed to work around the colony, or he would be Just a freeloader... A freeloader with an evil plan. And, since all of this happened when he couldn't come to kick his butt After touching you, it seemed like a pretty good option on his part.
The next day, with your satisfaction, you heard about the Macaque being part of the team that was supposed to take care of the vegetables, and, with the same satisfied smile, you decided to go and take a look.
You founded him there, taking care of the snails and the small paradise against some lettuces—clearly not a job for someone that wanted to take the place of Sun Wukong.
"Enjoying your work day?" You chirped happily, and the monkey looked at you with an annoyed glare. How the tablet turns...
"I would prefer," he putted a snail in the bucket, "to have a more... less parasitic job."
"Ooh, don't be such a baby! You're doing great!" You laugh while the monkey just sighed while fighting another snail.
///
As every night, he took what he needed and left the area where everybody was supposed to eat.
"Hey," you looked at Yuán Fèn. "Where he's going?" He looked at the monkey, following your finger, chewing a small piece of rise bun.
"I guess he's going to eat alone."
"Alone? Why?"
"I don't think the others are feeling that safe to have him around."
You looked at the macaque, eating alone under a tree—not so far but not that near to track attention. You felt again that sensation in your chest, the pressing feeling... and you were getting the name of it.
You felt guilty.
He gave a small sip of his soup when he noticed the movement of a skirt, the smell of meat near him, and a not-so-stranger perfume.
"Your fiancé is going to kill me."
"Maybe, but I'll spend eternity with him. One lunch with you, what could happen?"
He looked at you between his eyelids, hiding between them and the small spoon. How curious you were with that strange attitude of yours. Firstly, you were ready to smack him with a broom. Now you were there, eating your dinner all nice and cozy, with no trace of fear of his past actions. Well, maybe there was still some fear, but maybe you started to grow out of it?
And, while the two of you were eating in silence, you didn't notice the approaching of three young monkeys. Those were some teens, and by the looks of them, they were training in the martial arts. They sat a few meters away, looking at the two of you, sharing looks and talking between themselves. You noticed them and felt a rush of nervousness.
"Calm down," the macaque spoke. They just want to talk to me."
"Oh! And how do you know?" He just trapped one of his six ears, making you remember that he had an amazing gift there. You looked at the small group back again, then called for them.
"Come closer! He doesn't bite!" He begged to differ.
The three monkeys didn't lose that chance to get closer to eat alongside you and pester with question one of the few that put their future king down. It was a peaceful night, even if all of you were under the not so pleased eyes of your lover.
///
Days start to pass, and with the change of the sky, even the Macaque had tò noticed some changes in him.
Before, he was feared, hated, left behind, and mistrusted. Now he has to look at three teenage monkeys that want to become stronger and that want to learn something different. He has duties around the colony, and a few ask him for his consulence. He wasn't always welcome, but he was tolerated by the others��all because of little you.
You with that almost bothersome optimistic nature, you with that annoying way to look at everyone and try to see equality, you with that kindness that had made enemies trust you.
You feared him; he hurt you. When did you stop feared him and felt sympathy?
Oh, wait, he knows when... that time at the river...
"Now, be honest with me." You said, posing down the scroll full of names and invitations.
"Why were you trying to steal the relics? I got the all-powerful being thing, but it was just that? Nothing less?"
He darted his eyes from his disciples to you, cursing your curiosity and your ability to read between lines. He sighed, shifting his weight from one leg to another.
"What am I to you?"
"An edgy monkey."
"Not that, i mean regarding the story."
You moved your head, trying to understand his words. What you knew was that he was some kind of evil monkey that wanted to take his place during the journey, but their motivations or his reasons never were explained at all. By the time you needed to find the reason, he understood about your confusion.
"I guessed, back there, "he finally spoke," that if I was able to get the sutras, everyone would have finally acknowledged me. What I didn't understand back there was that Sun Wukong was behind this... and I was supposed to be just his copy forever."
His silence struck you, but not as much as his words. So that was it? He wanted to exist as himself... Despite the senplicity, for someone that was bound to be Just Sun Wukong, the evil twin It was... A lot
That's why he wanted the relics; with those he would have been able to exist. To you, it felt simple yet so complicated.
"I do believe you exist."
He turned around, looking at you. Your face was adorned with that gentile smile that had bound many before him.
"I don't think you need the relics for this, but, as much as it could matter, I do think you exist for everyone else."
From that day on, after those words, you were more Kinder than before. You searched for him, asked him things, walked with him, and more.
And so his mind started to act different.
He wanted for you to search for him, to meet him, to call for him. He wanted you to desire for him to burn like that flame in his chest.
He wanted you, and he knew how wrong It was... but after all, he was bad...
He believed that it was just a small fantasy, something like a silly idea. How could he love? Love was above him, a creature born only to be the malice of someone else.
He always wanted to be more; no one even cared to understand...but you did. You talked to him; you gave him a second chance, and he opened himself to you.
You have that power over Yaoguais, tò Just be so fucking nice and gentle, to be a different view.
You made him imagine things. You made him dream of courting you, to take you away from that wedding of yours, far too near to his own liking. He dreamed of fighting properly against the Destined One and winning you, and...and you were happy. You were happy to be with him.
///
"Thank you for the help. I REALLY needed another pair of arms!"
He hummed, looking around, trying to see if someone was looking for you or if you were watched.
No one was around...
"So you were saying that those mushrooms were on this side of the mountain?"
"Yeah... Just a little further. It's far from the village, so no one comes here."
Why did you have to be so trustful? Why did you believe that he had changed? He would have tried this if it wasn't for your naiveté.
No... No It wasn't you... It was him, the bad guy of the story.
While you both get deeper in the mountain, he opted so many times to stop, to just find some mushrooms and leave it...but he was too deep now, and he didn't want to stop.
Hours passed, and more you both got on that road, and more darkness started to fall. But you felt safe—too much safe, and he was taking advantage of that.
Finally, you spotted what you were searching for, under the base of a lonely tree. You gasped, happily knowing that your search did give you results, and you ran towards those mushrooms, starting to pick them up.
"There are so many! Look! Ah! You're so good at finding staff!"
You didn't see his body moving towards you, his staff in his hand.
You would understand; you always do. He would even take the form of Yuán Fèn if you wanted, just to make you happy and comfortable, but he needed it.
He needed the love you showed the other to him. He wanted your total attention.
He wanted you.
He prayed for your forgiveness while rising his staff.
"There! Done! I guess these are...uh?"
He was gone? Where did the Macaque go?
///
The trident puerced his shoulder, going so deep that the metal met the wood. The macaque needed to hold a scream of pain, scratching the metal of that weapon and trying to break free from it.
Erlang's piercing eyes didn't show remoteness against the monkey; she stopped to look at him with a silent hate and disdain.
"Despicable One... She trusted you, and this is how you're repaying her?! I knew I should have acted immediately when you set foot at Mount Huaguo, but I couldn't believe you could go this far."
The macaque looked at the celestial being in front of him. So that was why many other deities had left alone the mountain because of the sacred divinity protection?
"Big words," he mattered between his hiss of pain, "for someone that kiled monkeys for sport!"
Erlang looked at him without trace of any emotion this time; he hated when people used old mistakes to make him feel bad, like he wasn't already.
"And I'm not the one that is trying to take away another groom's bride."
The Macaque was intelligent enough to see something else in that pure hate look on the divinity's face, and he couldn't hold a laugh at the event that was unfolding upon him. Erlang looked at him, annoyed by his antics.
"So you fell too, uh?! You fell for her! This is too good to be true!"
"I suggest you to watch your mouth, monkey."
"I watch mine, but at least I have some girls to actually act. You're nothing but a coward, too afraid of rejection than fighting for the hand of the one you love!"
Erlang didn't answer his provocation, yet he saw it. In his eyes, he did leave a mark with his words. The Celestial being freed the monkey from his grasp, but his weapon was still pointed towards him, even when he was at his knees.
"It's because I love her so much that I decided to stand back. And for love, I'll keep fighting to be his protector and shield against the skies and the other celestials. And I gladly can make some space for you too, monkey."
Despite the threat, the macaque couldn't do anything but smile. So that was it, eh? Old Erlang Shen has fallen for you and wanted to be your champion. He could have had another joker, but the idea of dying wasn't appealing at all.
"I trust that my words reached you, monkey." His weapon was sharper than ever right now.
"They did, sacred divinity."
And so that was his destiny—long for something that he wished but couldn't have—such was his life, uh?

Cancer Au
Lucifer couldn't believe this........ He had no idea how he was going to tell Adam, his newly wed husband and love of his life that he was going to die of brain cancer.
The doctor said Adam had six months to a year left to live. He also said that Lucifer should wait until after the honeymoon to break the news to Adam.
Adam deserved one last trip full of happiness before months full of doctors appointments, chemotherapy, radiation therapy and maybe surgery.....
Lucifer: Fucking doctor, putting this on me. Bad enough I'm going to lose him.....
Saying it out loud didn't help.
Adam was waiting for him. He went out and it nearly killed him seeing Adam so happy, blissfully unaware he's literally dying.
Adam: Luci? Everything okay?
Lucifer gave a stiff nod: Yeah..... Let's go home.
*Adam was so happy, he had the love of his life as his husband and they were soon going on a tropical honeymoon, Lucifer and Adam grew up together and Adam always had a crush on him, it made him so happy when Lucifer admitted on prom night that he felt the same way, they danced and kissed, they went to the same college and were even roommates, now they got married, Adam could tell something Lucifer sad, but he wouldn’t say anything*
Lucifer: I want you to know how much I love you and I would do anything to make you happy.
Adam: I feel the same way Luci.
*once home, Lucifer lay Adam on the bed and they got undressed and Lucifer made love to him, while they lay in bed together Lucifer ran his fingers through Adam’s hair, he thought about the fact that once Adam received radiation treatment he was most likely going to lose all of his hair, he wasn’t vain enough to stop loving Adam because he went bald, but he knew how upsetting it would be for Adam since he went on about how his hair was one of his best traits*
Lucifer: I paid for the best hotel and we are going to have the fanciest dinner at a very nice restaurant.
Adam: You definitely know how to spoil me.
Lucifer: You deserve the best.
*Lucifer plucked one of the roses from the vase, it was the bouquet of roses Adam held with he walked down the aisle to marry Lucifer, he put the rose in Adam’s hair, he looked so beautiful to Lucifer like this, the next day they packed everything in the car to the hotel, Lucifer just looking at Adam whenever he could because these next few months were going to be painful for Adam and he wanted to have the memory of Adam being so happy in his mind*

Hello!! Can you write about Smoke trying to ask fem. reader to be his date for Kuai Liang's wedding?
Plus One - Tomas x fem!reader (5+1 fic)
in which Tomas tries five times to ask you to be his date, and the one time he finally gets it right
a/n: i love weddings guys
ship[s]: tomas x fem!reader
warning(s): post-kanon
1 - Johnny
Tomas had a plan.
Walk in the hosting room, hand you the small bouquet of wisterias, and ask you to accompany him to his brother's wedding.
Easy, right?
Wrong. Especially with a woman as beautiful as you.
You two weren't dating (yet), but Tomas had been pining after you for a couple of months now.
This wedding invite would double as an opportunity to ask you out completely.
Tomas holds the flowers he plans on giving you, stands in front of the door for a couple more seconds as he hypes himself up for you.
"You can do this," Tomas whispers to himself. Gripping on the handle of the door, he slides it open to meet you in a... precarious situation.
Johnny is chasing you around with one of Tomas's masks (elder gods know how that ended up in the hosting room). You were padding around the room in childish joy, but stopped once you saw him.
"Oh, Tomas!" you greet. "Sorry about that, Johnny dropped in for a visit for some research on Japan. Kuai Liang invited him in."
Your eyes drop to the wisteria bouquet.
"Who's that going to?" you ask.
Tomas tosses the bouquet out to the side, smiling tightly as he walks in and closes the door.
"Nothing! It was for sister..." he lies, guilty he's using Harumi as a scapegoat.
As you and Johnny continue playing, Tomas grits his teeth.
He has six days before the wedding. Day one didn't go so well, but he has six more days.
Yeah, he thinks, Tomorrow will go just fine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2 - Raiden
You and Tomas are greeted at the entrance of the Wu Shi by Kung Lao and Raiden.
"Welcome, our esteemed guests," Kung Lao teases. You roll your eyes, bowing halfway.
"Funny, Kung Lao," you greet with a smile. Tomas does the same thing.
Five days until the wedding and Tomas still has his bouquet waiting for you. Since today was a visit to talk about security for the wedding.
Perfectly stowed away in his shirt, Tomas is by your side as Kung Lao and Raiden talk about the safety of the bride and groom.
A monk suddenly rushes to Kung Lao's side, whispering to him about... something.
"Apologies, everyone!" Kung Lao announces. "I'll be taking my leave, but Raiden will show you two more of the details."
Waving Kung Lao off, Raiden begins to tour you guys around the place and offer more insight to security and what the monks can provide.
You'd think that Tomas would have the perfect opportunity to talk to you about the wedding and going as a couple, but he didn't.
Raiden was stuck to your side the entire day. Literally, glued to your hip as he showed you every nook and cranny about the academy.
It wasn't even about the security of the monks anymore. He showed you everything and everywhere of the academy.
Little by little, Tomas could feel his confidence wilt and waver. It wasn't until the sun set that you finally were able to address Tomas.
"Raiden is such a hospitable young man," you gush, hand on your cheek as you wave goodbye.
"What was it you wanted to speak to me about?" you ask, walking with him as a portal opens back to the compound.
Tomas tucks the bouquet deeper into his shirt, smiling tightly as he glares at Raiden.
"It can wait until dinner, dove," Tomas answers politely. You smile, and Tomas can feel the guilt take bigger bites out of his conscious.
Poor Raiden, he was just trying to be friendly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3 - Kenshi
Four days.
Four days until the wedding and Tomas's chances have been ruined twice now.
No matter, since he still has time.
Today, Tomas knew no one would be taking up yours, his, or the clan's time at all. His bouquet for you was beginning to wilt a bit, but Harumi supplied him with plant food and a matching vase.
Carrying the flowers in its vase, he walks to the garden and pond in the back of the compound.
In all honesty, the days he got interrupted gave him time to practice his words for you. So this time around, he's more confident and ready.
Rounding the corner, he finds you sitting by yourself on the wooden ledge. The breeze was light and cool, and your hair billowed like a willow tree.
"Good morrow, dove," Tomas greets. You smile, a dust of pink over your cheeks.
Before you could say anything, Kenshi appears from the room behind you (was that always there? Tomas thinks). Though his eyes are no longer useful, his brows do the talking as they're up in surprise.
"Good morning, Tomas. What brings you here?"
A vein pops in his neck, and he bites back from saying "i live here, doofus". Keeping up appearances, he recovers and smiles semi-politely.
"I just finished training my students," Tomas answers.
You look to see that Tomas has the same flowers from a couple of days ago.
"I thought you had given that to Harumi already," you point to the flowers. "Did you not get it to her?"
Tomas mentally curses himself, "Ah, she wasn't in the other day."
Putting the flowers to the side, he sits down next to you and Kenshi, Kenshi to your left and him on your right.
You three are engrossed in conversation, and Tomas is actually okay with not being able to ask you out.
Besides, Kenshi is rational, Johnny was an idiot and Raiden was touchy (no he wasn't Tomas is just getting antsy).
I have tomorrow, Tomas thinks, Tomorrow I'll do it.
The wisterias keep bending over the lip of the vase, almost like a cursed rose counting down the time he had left before he'd be cursed forever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
4 - Kung Lao
With two days remaining until the wedding, Tomas's patience was running thin.
The wisteria bouquet was losing its color, and the taut petals were shriveling like raisins with the time passing like this.
Still, he remained hopeful. Just as there were wilting petals, there were still some that were bright and healthy.
"Today for sure," Tomas tells himself. "Today is the day I'll do it."
If Tomas had a ten yen coin for every time his allies came through and stopped his advances for you, he'd have three. It isn't a lot, but it is weird it happened three times.
Tomas opens another pack of fertilizer for the the flowers, dumping it in the water of the vase before he stirs it with a wooden dowel.
He's not bringing it today, since it looks like a bit of a mess. To replace it, he has a letter and a bouquet of baby's breath.
Leaving his room, he wanders the compound again to to try and see where you are.
It's a warm evening this time around, and the sun has barely just touched the horizon. Tomas can hear the birds chirp and fill the silence of nature, and he finally spots you.
You're by the entrance this time, leaning on the huge maple wood door frame while talking to someone. Despite the posture you're in, you look as regal as ever. The sun shines and illuminates your very features, and Tomas can't help but sigh like a school boy in love.
He steps closer, rounding the corner to see who could be making you cover your mouth as you laugh, only to find the silhouette of a sun hat.
"Oh, hello!" Kung Lao greets. His dimples are out as he smiles fully, pearly white teeth shining as he waves the smoke ninja over.
"Come join us! Little birdie over here was just updating me about the wedding plans!" Kung Lao yells.
You swat his shoulder and tell him to hush.
"You said you would not tell!" you scold. "This is a secret!"
Tomas hid the letter in his shirt and the bouquet in the pocket of his pants. He couldn't intervene, not now, and not when you were clearly enjoying the laughs Kung Lao was providing.
Still, Tomas remained by your side, back straight and putting up the best front he could. However, the bouquet in his pants portrayed a different story.
Tomorrow, Tomas thinks, I'll do it for real.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
5 - Kuai Liang
The last day before the wedding.
Everything should have been in place so that the bride and groom could have time to relax and be with their respective parties before the day of the ceremony.
So why is it that you and Kuai Liang were together at a flower shop, piecing together his corsage?
It was strange, too, considering a corsage is a western practice- Japanese weddings didn't even need flowers unless it was for the bride.
Tomas didn't want to give up, not when the wedding was so close, but the fact he ended up following you and Kuai Liang to the flower shop in the village near the compound meant he was on thin ice.
And boy was he desperate.
Tomas was ready. His wisterias were healthy, the baby's breath was still in tact, and the flowers worked so well together. The letter was the perfect touch too.
So the fact he saw you and Kuai Liang leave together, he couldn't hide his frustrations any longer.
"Brother, I swear to the elder gods..." Tomas mumbles to himself as he watches you two from a roof nearby.
He was still thinking of a way to come up to you two naturally, and without showing the vase and letter.
At this point, though, and with the wedding tomorrow, he felt defeated. He felt like he had given up.
He keeps the flowers and letter on the roof, telling himself he'll get the later. He takes his mask off and ruffles his clothes to make it look like he ran errands.
Finally, he jumps down on the opposite end of the shop, walking down until you point out to Kuai Liang that you see him.
"Tomas! What brings you here?" you ask gleefully, unaware of the sadness that plagues his heart.
"Nothing, dove. Just running some final errands before the wedding tomorrow."
He spends the rest of the day with you and his brother, the flowers and letter sitting idly on the rooftop- just like his feelings rest idly in his heart.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+1 - Harumi
You brush Harumi's hair one more time before rolling the hood over her head. Through the mirror, you look at her and offer her words of encouragement.
"Oh Harumi, I'm so happy for you," you say with a wobbly voice, tears lining the bottom of your eyes as you squeeze her shoulder.
You friend of many years, your ride or die, your platonic soulmate, was getting married to the most honorable man in the planet- in the realm!
How could you not be happy for her?
Harumi can sense that something is amiss with you, especially since you've been so excited for this wedding.
"What plagues your mind, my friend?" she asks, turning away from the vanity to hold both your hands.
You shake your head, "Nothing is wrong, just so overcome with joy."
Yeah, no. Harumi isn't believing a word since your tone didn't match the words you spoke.
"Come now, you can tell me," Harumi coaxes you gently. You can't help but fall victim to her charm, and you sit next to her to tell her about the week leading up to today.
From Johnny and his research, Raiden and the Wu Shi visit, even the little meets with Kenshi and Kung Lao, and you can't forget the fact that Kuai Liang took you to a flower shop to get a corsage made for Tomas.
All of these little things, talking to your friends about how to properly ask Tomas out to be your date, Harumi hears everything about your dilemma.
"Well... why don't you hear him now?" Harumi asks. He waves the handmaiden over, telling her that she's ready for the men to come in.
Kuai Liang and Tomas walk inside, wearing the traditional attire of a Japanese groom and best man. While Harumi is practically drooling over Kuai Liang, you can't help but be breathless in front of the European.
"Hi..." Tomas waves awkwardly with one hand, his other hiding something behind his back.
You give him the same salutation, gripping the corsage against your yukata.
"We will be outside getting ready, but the procession can't start until our best man and maid of honor are ready," Harumi tells you both.
Harumi winks at you while Kuai Liang is giving his younger brother a knowing glance. Tomas just waves him out.
"You look... lovely," Tomas finally says, eyeing you up and down. "Your yukata is a flattering color."
He wasn't lying. Harumi went to great lengths finding you the perfect yukata in your favorite color. She even got the best tailor in the country to fit it well against your body.
"I uh, wanted to give you something-"
"Wait! I have something as well," Tomas interrupts. He pulls out the thing you had been seeing through the weekend, the vase with the wisterias and the baby's breath.
"Oh... Tomas they're beautiful," you barely whisper. "For me?"
He nods, pointing to the flowers as he explains, "Baby's breath symbolizes everlasting love, and wisterias represent grace."
He meets your eyes, and you can see a bit of red at the corners indicating his shyness.
"This is my graceful everlasting love to you, not only as a friend, but as a suitor, if you'll have me."
You take the flowers and set them down on the vanity, taking the note from his hand as well and replacing it with the thing Tomas had seen earlier in the week.
Tomas looks down, "The corsage? But I thought-."
You shake your head, "No you goof, it wasn't for anyone but you!"
You then begin to explain how you spoke to each man about your crush on Tomas, and how you were gathering ideas on a gift to pair with your declaration of love.
Kuai Liang's idea was the best, and he offered to go out with you to fulfill that. Silly Tomas.
You take the corsage and pin it to the hem of his yukata. The flowers you chose were a white peonies and dark purple violets.
"The peony represents beauty and the violets represent faithfulness. You are the faithful, beautiful, dutiful man who has captured my heart."
Tomas is wide-eyed, and you recover yourself before your shame can eat you alive.
"If you'll have me..." You don't need to ask twice before Tomas takes your hand in his, kissing the back of your hand as he nods to the door.
"Are you ready to accompany me, my consort?" Tomas asks.
You nod, "Gladly, my loving suitor."
=====================
5+1 fics are so funny, this also makes me miss weddings

How would I’m Your Man!Andy react if he was in an AU where a mafia princess (or her father) forced him into a marriage without any say? 👿😡
Oh, the amount of hate sex that would happen! 😏😈
I imagine it being a scenario where instead of where we see I’m Your Man!Andy (in his deep 30s) this Andy would be maybe just-turned-30 and was moving up the ranks in the rival mafia's organization, one of the most consistent soldiers, but one of the other soldiers - someone Andy thought he was close to - murders the capo they both report to who happens to be the boss's favorite son - and frames Andy for the murder/betrayal/double-crossing.
Andy tries to get out of the city, but gets picked up by your father's men and brought in. He sees the value of absorbing Andy/demanding his loyalty in exchange for sparing his life.
Your father has been "hinting" that he's ready for you to start producing heirs, and he's wanted you to pick one of his men. You've been putting it off because you want to inherit outright, not be the mother of an heir or the treasure given to one of your father's men.
[THIS GOT LONG, SO THE REST IS GOING UNDER A READ MORE - BASICALLY I'M GOING TO TELL YOU A STORY BUT NOT WRITE IT OUT AS A FIC...IT JUST GOT LONG AND MY IMAGINATION WENT ALL THE WAY]
[ALSO TRIGGER WARNING FOR PREGNANCY ISSUES AND MENSTRUAL CYCLES]
He brings both you and Andy in to his office and offers the ultimatum: Andy agrees to marry you, or he gets delivered to the doorstep of his former boss who wants his head; you agree to marry Andy or you'll be cut off, exiled, and kept from ever seeing your mother or your younger sister ever again. To completely cement your union, the two of you must also produce an heir to secure the line of succession. Do it and the two of you are guaranteed his kingdom. Fail to do so, and when your sister graduates from college, he's marrying her off to one of his capos - which is something you swore to yourself you would never let happen. YOU were going to be the mafia princess - you were shrewd, trained, you even wanted it, but your precious, bright, innocent younger sister would be eaten alive by this life.
Andy has no choice, and in your mind, neither do you.
The two of you are moved to a private villa on the estate.
Your father sets the date in three weeks for a lavish, public wedding.
Andy hates that he was stripped of everything he worked for, and even though he hates you and hates that he's been given no choice, he sees the silver lining in being fast-tracked to the top of your father's ranks if he can prove his value and his new loyalty.
You hate that he's an outsider, you hate that he's going to play your father's game, and you hate that you'll be "his wife" when you wanted to be the one with the power.
There's a huge blowout between the two of you about halfway through the engagement that ends in some epic hate fucking. You split Andy's lip with the slap you deal to him, and though he's absolutely rough and brutal with you and your body, he doesn't raise a hand against you or do anything actually violent.
You goad and escalate each other during it because the more intense it gets, the better it feels, and both of you are too proud to drop the animosity.
So when the pent up sexual tension mounts for the following ten days until your wedding night?
Andy literally tears your dress off you the moment you're alone together.
You don't hit Andy again, but besides that, the vicious cycle of animosity continues for a good six months - avoiding each other, being constantly resentful and annoyed, and then boiling over and fucking it out.
But it changes when you're staring slack-jawed at a positive pregnancy test and Andy walks in on you.
Now the reality of a completely new chapter is undeniable, and it changes both of you fundamentally.
He's forceful and growly about it, but Andy wants a truce. If you're really going to have a child, he doesn't want that child to grow up in a violent and angry home like he did before his dad went away to prison. You don't want that either.
So the two of you agree to make a go of a peaceful and tolerant partnership.
You took the pregnancy test pretty early - you had only been a week late, felt nauseous for a few days, and took the test as a precaution. Since it was so early, you were a little shocked, and you didn't want anyone else to know yet - which Andy agreed to - you didn't make an appointment to see your OBGYN straight away.
A few weeks later, you start bleeding, get freaked out, Andy takes you to the hospital, and miracle of miracles, you find out you were NOT pregnant before - the test was a false positive (rare, but can happen), and your body was stressed and skipped a period.
Both of you are relieved everything is relatively okay, but the ordeal and the few weeks of détente before changed the dynamic of your marriage.
Andy takes you home, tucks you into his bed, and in the morning he says he doesn't want to go back to how things were - not the hateful phase, and not even the tentative working phase you two had just been navigating since the potential pregnancy. He proposes the two of you try to be partners in marriage for real. He doesn't want to be miserable for the rest of his life, and it's not even a grudging acknowledgement when he says he actually has developed a hell of a lot of respect for you over the last six to eight months.
And you have to admit he's garnered the same from you - exponentially since the day of the pregnancy test and his agreement to handle it at your pace, and for taking absolute care of you with the panic the night before.
It's slow-going, and the hate sex stops.
Two months later, there's a real kiss between the two of you.
On your first anniversary, Andy holds your hand during your first ultrasound and the OBGYN gives you the surprise revelation that it's twins, and he looks at you like you've hung the moon and the stars in the sky.

I Love You?
Summary: You aren't totally sure of your feelings about Spencer, at least not until you both attend JJ's wedding.
Pairing: Spencer Reid x Reader
Word Count: 1.2k
Warnings: descriptions of unhealthy relationships, some colorful language (literally just one swear word), kissing, established relationship, not proof read, I think that's it, let me know if I missed anything!
A/N: this is entirely self indulgent because I'm obsessed with Spencer with kids, and also I hate most men but I just know Spencer would be the perfect bf. Also, this is totally inspired by 7x24.
Let’s be honest. You’ve had your heart broken more times than you could count. Your type seemed to be cheaters, liars, manipulators, and the like. As your mother would say, your picker was broken. That is until you met Spencer. When you met, you had sworn off of men. You were tired of begging them to do the bare minimum. All that to say, you were wary of him. He seemed nice enough, all awkward and nervous, sputtering at you like he had never spoken to a woman before. You found it endearing and honestly, you kind of liked the idea of someone who didn’t have much experience with women. It made him seem less likely to treat you the way your exes had. So, despite your vow of not dating, Spencer became your boyfriend.
Six months in and were still wary of him. Your therapist says you have “commitment issues” and to be honest she was right. You had no problem dating Spencer, no problem spending the night at his house or meeting his friends, you had no problem having sex or even meeting his mother. You just got a little freaked out when it came to taking the relationship to the next step. For example, four months into your relationship, Spencer told you that he loved you. That had freaked you out more than anything. You didn’t want to break his heart, but you also wanted to protect your own. It’s not that you didn’t have feelings for Spencer, you did, big ones, it’s just that your past relationships had made you scared to feel that way about anyone again. Spencer, of course, understood. The two of you agreed to take things slow, to wait until you felt secure, but you could tell Spencer was getting impatient. He needed more from you. You could tell that you were going to have to make your move soon or you would lose him, and that scared you more than anything. Still, you wanted to be sure, you had to be sure.
Rossi had called a few days ago and told Spencer that he was throwing a surprise wedding for JJ and Will, and he wanted you both to be there. As you got ready for the wedding, you felt nervous. Surely being at a wedding, with all the love in the air or whatever, would make Spencer even more anxious for a commitment.
Soon the knock on your door alerted you to Spencer’s presence. You didn’t bother to move from your spot in the bathroom, putting the finishing touches on your makeup. He had a key to your apartment and you knew he’d just come in. Out of your peripheral vision you saw a mop of curly brown hair and felt a set of hands on your waist.
“Hey.” He whispered into your ear. The sound of his voice was enough to send shivers down your spine. You spun around to face him.
“Wow,” He said, taking a step back to see all of you, “You look incredible.”
“Well thank you,” You smirked, pulling away to do a spin so he could see the way your dress moved. He grinned as pulled you back in for a kiss, slow and passionate. As you kissed him, you felt fireworks, like the kind they talked about in overplayed pop songs. Holy shit. Were you in love with him?
As soon as you arrived at Rossi’s mansion (he’d kill you if he heard you call it merely a house), you had been whisked away by Penelope and Emily, wanting to catch up after not having seen each other for a while. The three of you talked, well gossiped is more like it, over a couple glasses of wine. Your attention was pulled from the conversation when you heard the excited screams of children. You turned around to see Spencer, pulling a coin out of Henry’s ear, as Jack begged him to do the trick on him next. You watched as he did, eliciting the same excited scream from Jack as it had in Henry. You watched as he did card tricks for them with a deck of poker cards he had found in Rossi’s junk drawer. But most of all, you watched how he looked at the kids, like they were the greatest things ever put on this Earth. He was so happy in this moment, really, genuinely happy. The first thought that crossed your mind was, ‘he would make such a good father’, and then it was over for you. You started picturing Spencer playing like that with your kids while you cooked dinner, you thought about what he might be like while you were at the hospital in labor. You thought about what kind of house you might live in, maybe something in the suburbs? You thought about what kind of dress you would wear on your wedding day and what colors the bridesmaids would wear. You thought about how’d he tear up seeing you come down the aisle. And that was the moment you knew, the moment you were really sure, that you were hopelessly in love with Spencer.
As you sat next to Spencer at the ceremony, you were nearly crying. You couldn’t stop thinking about the sudden realization that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with him. You wanted to marry him and have his babies. You figured no one would really notice your crying, it was pretty common to cry at weddings after all. But Spencer noticed. He grabbed your hand and squeezed it, trying to get your attention. You turned your head to meet his eyes and he mouthed a subtle “You okay?”. You nodded and turned back to watch JJ and Will say their vows, but that simple act of checking in on you made you feel something you had never felt before. Sure you had been in love before, but Spencer made you feel safe. In that moment, you knew that all the crying and heartbreak was over for you, because you had him.
The reception was now in full swing. Everyone had a couple of drinks in them, and you were being dragged onto the dance floor by a fairly intoxicated Agent Rossi. After a couple of songs, you shot Spencer a look that said “Help me” and you knew he’d come to your rescue, even though he was much for dancing.
“Sorry Rossi, but I think it’s my turn,” He said as he took your hand and escorted you to a more desolate part of the dance floor. As the two of you began to sway, the DJ played “Lover” by Taylor Swift. You usually weren’t into the typical wedding songs, but all of the sudden you understood. You understood Taylor Swift in a way you never had before. You looked up at Spencer and saw nothing but love in his big, brown eyes.
You took a deep breath, “I love you.” You said it so quietly you weren’t sure he had heard it. Before you could confirm whether or not he had, his hands were on your face and your lips were crashing into his, for a deep and passionate kiss.
The two of you stayed like that for while, only to be snapped back into reality by Morgan making kissy sounds and yelling at Spencer to stop trying to swallow you. You both laughed, your lips still touching.
You pulled away and Spencer was beaming. You had never seen him smile that big.
“I love you, too,” He said, “But you already knew that.”
Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed and if have any ideas, requests, whatever, don't be scared to send them my way!

Heyyy love ur work alot and this is my first time asking u but for ur 500 followers celebration could u do Spencer Reid and childhood friends fem!reader with heavy pining and " it's always been u" at the end hurt/comfort ?
omg slay yes. Done. (accidentally made it gn lmao)
“Oh my god Spence I can’t do this.”
“What?”
“I can’t—I can’t do it.”
“Hey, hey talk to me. What’s going on?”
“It’s all wrong. Everything is all wrong.”
Spencer listened to you ramble as he very calmly moved towards the door, trying not to alert anyone that anything was wrong. Of course, when you’re surrounded by friends and family, and a strong percentage of them are profilers, the statistics of one of them not noticing was very, very, very low.
“It’s okay.” He whispered, trying to calm you down over the phone, while trying to not attract attention.
He was lucky Hotch was the only one to notice him getting up. Spencer was almost lucky enough to have Hotch not notice he was on the phone, but the universe had other plans.
Spencer quickly slipped out the main doors of the church and into the hallway. Hotch was not far behind.
“Y/n. I need you to sit down and breathe okay? Open a window. Get some air—“ Spencer stopped talking when some patrons walked by him, smiling at them and waiting for them to be gone to continue calming you down.
“What’s wrong.”
Spencer turned and faced Hotch. He wasn’t even going to try and lie. There was simply no point in it. “We have a um…..”
Hotch nodded. “How much time do you need?”
“Five minutes max.” Spencer whispered.
The two men silently came to an agreement and one went back into the church while the other bounded up the steps.
Spencer knocked on the door, patiently waiting for you to answer them. He was surprised when you quickly yanked him inside and slammed the door shut so no one would notice it was open. Spencer decided not to point out that slamming doors was not the way to go if you didn’t want to attract attention.
“Want to—-“ Spencer stopped in his tracks. He couldn’t breathe.
You had literally taken Spencer’s breath away. Spencer had always thought that he would see you at the end of the aisle when you both were at your wedding. But even just seeing you now was enough to cause his heart to drop with grief.
You were breathtaking, and you weren’t his.
You and Spencer had known one another since he was five and you were six. Since you were older, you always knew better, even though Spencer was definitely the brains of your little operation.
The very first time Spencer saw you, he proposed to you with a rock, muttering something along the lines of a rock fact and what that rock had been through and eternity.
You said yes.
It was hard to be friends with someone who graduated high school and went to college when they were twelve years old. You knew Spencer wouldn’t forget you, but as the years passed by, it felt like he did. You only found him again on your first day in the FBI Academy.
To say you were shocked when you saw him in your line up the first morning you all had to run a mile in a minute, it didn’t even come close.
You two only got closer when you both were selected for the BAU, which wasn’t even on your radar until Spencer told you about it.
Somewhere down the line, you fell in love with him. With his smile. His brain. His never perfect hair. His facts. His glasses. His messenger bag. All of it. And you fell hard.
It didn’t take a room full of profilers to tell you that it was fairly obvious you love him.
But it didn’t seem to reach across the border with Spencer. He ended up making out with movie stars, falling in love with JJ, dating a woman who he only communicated with on the phone. It was never you.
The love you had for Spencer was palpable but you had no where to put it. So you did what you do best, you diverted your attention. Dated around. Kissed people at bars. Went on boring dates. Until you found someone who was kind, and respectful, and attractive. A distraction that ended up being someone you cared for deeply. Deeply enough to say yes when they proposed.
But now, that you were here, and completely dressed, fully made up, you were having cold feet. You couldn’t do it.
You wanted Spencer to be on the other end of the aisle and he wasn’t. You couldn’t picture anyone else when you looked down the aisle and it was killing you.
You looked up at Spencer, tear stained cheeks, puffy eyes.
Seeing you dressed like that, and not for him, was a stab in the gut. Repeatedly wrenching out his insides. Spencer shoved everything he had ever wanted to say down his throat. “Oh Y/n.” He whispered, walking over to you and pulling you into a hug.
“Talk to me.” Stab.
“What can I do?” Stab.
“How can I fix this.” Right through the heart.
“I-I can’t do it Spence…i don’t love—I’m not going to marry—-“
“Hey hey hey.” He kissed your head. “You are so strong and wonderful and you can—“
You shoved him away. “You’re not listening to me. I’m not—I can’t do it. I don’t love—“
“Yes you do.” Spencer swallowed the lump in his throat and continued. “You wouldn’t have said yes if you didn’t.”
“Yes—-but no. I don’t.” You huffed and cracked your knuckles (a nervous habit you had picked up from a certain SSA Morgan). “Not like that.” You looked down at your attire. “Not like this.”
Spencer stood there, watching as you worked it out. “Why.”
“Why?”
Spencer nodded. “Why aren’t you going through with it.”
You opened your mouth but no sound came out. Nothing. It was as if you had never spoken at all. You felt the words. They were on the tip of your tongue. Literally.
I’m in love with you Spencer Reid.
But they never made it past your lips. So you just looked like a fish out of water, mouth flopping open and closed.
“Y/n?”
“I-I have a reason it’s just…” you closed your eyes. “I love you.”
Spencer exhaled but responded. “I love you too but—-“
“No Spencer.” You cut him off. “I’m in love with you. I have been since you proposed to me with that stupid fucking rock that I still keep on my night stand. It is the first thing I see when I wake up in the morning and the last thing I see when I sleep at night. But I don’t want to see some stupid fossilized sand. I want you. I want to see your eyes every fucking morning. I want to make my espresso in the kitchen and have you tell me about ancient Mayan chiefs drinking it during major celebrations. I want to have someone to talk to about the books I read and the ones I don’t. I want someone to play chess with. I want to be able to lean over and kiss you whenever the fuck I want because I am all you Spencer. I have been yours. And I cannot picture anyone else on the other end of that aisle at my wedding. I can’t go through with it because it’s not you. I have been in love with you for as long as I can remember and it kills me that you don’t love me the same way. But I cannot get married today because I’m not saying my vows to you. I’m not swearing before our friends and family that I would not only lay down my life for you, but I would stay alive for you.”
Soencer was sure that the ceiling had a leak in it because it felt like he was just run over by a water fall. Completely drenched in your words and soaking them into his skin.
You wiped a tear away and shook your head. “That’s why I’m not getting married. And I get it if you don’t see me the same way but—-“
You had always imagined that Spencer’s lips would taste like, but strawberry chapstick was not one of them. His lips slotted perfectly into yours, with his hand on your cheek, and the other around your waist, pulling you flush against him.
You melted into his touch, made dumb by the fact that his lips were on yours.
Eventually, you needed air. You would have stood there all day with your lips locked with his. But you pulled away ever so slightly, forehead resting on his.
“It’s you.” You felt his lips brush against yours as his spoke, his breathe fanning across your lips. “It’s always been you.”
You smiled and pushed your lips against his.
No matter how the next few minutes of your life played out, it was all going to be okay, as long as you could keep your lips on Spencer’s, and he kept his lips on yours.

october sixth
day six: james potter james brings you to a campfire with his friends | fluff! james being flirty | 1.1k
It’s a bit of strange magic that you haven’t met James’s friends yet. Not officially, anyway. In passing, sure, and James has told you all about them. He talks about the boys and their antics constantly and assures you that the girls will adore you. It’s only a matter of time before you all get together.
Not for lack of trying, of course. But Remus was out of town and then Sirius had the flu which he gave to Marlene and then everyone was busy with an old schoolmate’s wedding and you were swamped with work and it’s been almost three months since your first date and you still haven’t been properly introduced.
It doesn’t bother you that much. In fact, you’re pretty sure it bothers James much more. “I just don’t want you to think I’m hiding you,” he says. “It’s bloody weird that it’s worked out like this.”
The fix comes with the change of the seasons. Lily’s parents have a country house and invite everyone for a weekend of bonfires and warm drinks and general lazing about.
“A country house, James? Really?” you say when he tells you. He shrugs.
“We go every year. You’ll love it.”
So you agree. It’s not until you’re literally about to turn into the drive that the nerves hit you all at once. Your leg bounces in the passenger seat of James’s car and he puts his palm on your knee to still it.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asks. “No harm, no foul.”
“Of course I do,” you scoff. “We’re almost there, anyway.”
James grabs your hand and brings it to his lips. “I’d turn around right now if you asked,” he says. “Seriously.” His dark gaze is steady and warm.
“I will not ask that,” you say. “I want to meet them. I just —”
“They’ll love you,” James says firmly. “They know all about you and they are just as offended that this hasn’t happened sooner. They all blame me, actually.”
He turns off of the long road and the house emerges in front of you like a fairy tale. It’s a country house, sure, but it’s clearly large and nicer than anything you’ve ever seen.
“I hope you’ve only told them good things,” you say. James turns off the car and allows you to stall for a few moments.
“No, I’ve told them how you snore and leave your kitchen cabinets open all the time,” he deadpans. You laugh and he grins. “Have you got your silly bag?”
The tote at your feet is full of things you’ve brought with, despite James’s protests. Licorice for Sirius, cider for Remus, Lily’s favorite biscuits from town. You made sure to have a little something for everyone even though your boyfriend assured you that buying their loyalty wasn’t necessary.
“They’re already on your side since you put up with me,” he’d said.
But now you just nod. James gives your hand one last squeeze. “They’re going to love you,” he says. You let yourself look at him, really look at him in the way you know he enjoys. He looks excited, almost boyish. Fall suits him with his sweater and waxed jacket, a hat tucked into his pocket. His hair is a mess and his glasses need to be cleaned.
You adore him.
“Let’s do it.”
You arrive at the front door to a flurry of activity. Everyone spills out and there are cries of your name and hugs and you hand off your items, feeling a bit shy.
“My god,” Sirius says, looking at his licorice. “She’s perfect, Jamie.”
Remus thanks you with an easy smile for the cider and Lily actually screams when you pull out the biscuits.
“She’s a keeper, Potter,” she shouts. “If you ever want to ditch him,” she says to you, “you’re welcome to. You can hang out with the girls.”
You get pulled from James and meet Dorcus and Marlene and they take you up to your room. The sun has almost set so they tell you to put some more layers on and come down to the bonfire when you’re ready.
“See?” James says as he spills into the room. He tosses your bags on the bed. “They love you more than they love me.”
“I am rather charming,” you say. He laughs and kisses you once, twice, three times. He backs you up against the door and you have to push him away. “They’re expecting us at the bonfire, James.”
He pouts. “Fine,” he says. “If you insist.”
The evening is a fun one. There are jokes and stories and games, everyone drinking to stay warm and snacking on junk food.
You wander back from a trip to the bathroom to find that the seats have reshuffled, the conversations moved. James waves you over.
He’s bathed in the light of the fire, the flames making the lenses of his glasses shine in the dark. The bench he’s on has no more room but he grins and pats his thigh.
You raise your eyebrows. Really? He winks.
You do as he asks and perch on his thigh, knees smushed into his other leg. He wraps his arm around your back to keep you from falling if you lean too far. Dorcus is telling a story about some adventure she and Marlene went on last week, so no one really looks at you.
James tugs on your ear. You lean down and his lips brush against your skin. “This is nice. Are you having fun?”
You nod. “I am,” you say into his hair. “They’re lovely.”
“Thank you for coming.” You know James is mostly happy-go-lucky, pleased as punch to do anything, a real sunshine boy. But you also know it has bothered him immensely that two important parts of his life have been separate until now. He’s worried endlessly that you think he’s not keen on your relationship despite your assurances otherwise. So you are glad that you’re here, even if you were nervous at the start. You just want him to be happy.
He kisses your cheek until you turn your head enough for him to capture your lips. You can’t wait to be in his arms in bed tonight.
“Oi!” Sirius yells. “Stop canoodling. It’s obscene.” He’s teasing, obviously, but you tuck your face into James’s neck anyway.
“Aw, let them,” Lily says. “You’re just bitter you’re single as fuck.”
“Hey!” Everyone laughs. You feel James’s chuckle more than hear it and you put your palm on his chest. His heart is beating steadily. You can hardly believe he’s given it to you.

The Fire in the Sin
Chapter 22 - House on Fire
Word count: 5,246. Read on AO3. Series Masterlist. <- Previous Chapter.
Summary: Mina returns with her contribution to the upcoming battle and of course . . . there's smut. TW: If you've made it this far in the series, just know there is the usual kind of kinky smut between two mentally unwell demons that love each other.
Series summary
In the 1950's, Alastor met the woman he would eventually marry but unfortunately his Radio Demon persona went for her soul rather than her hand. He has to learn what it means to love, and cherish, without possessing and he does. Their relationship is beautiful, strong, unbreakable . . . but he carries a dark secret through their marriage for decades until eventually he has to face the consequences of that secret and leave her, without warning, for seven years. He returns, finding her at the Hazbin Hotel, and has to convince her to forgive him, while being literally bound to secrecy, unable to tell her any of things he now is desperate to explain to her.
(This is a duel timeline fic, timestamps will be a the top of every chapter.)
Chapter 22 - House on Fire
Present Day
When Mina returned to the hotel that evening, Charlie, Alastor, and Vaggie had all beaten her there, with their recruits in tow. She would learn later that the three of them had quite the dramatic reunion at the gates, with their army on one side and weapons on the other.
Mina had neither an impressively large number of Sinners nor did she bring with her an intimidating array of steel swords and spears. She was not one for big displays of power or showmanship and neither were the others that worked in The Pit. Their subtlety was what they were known for, right up until they ripped out your organs.
A portal opened in the hotel lobby, its ring of fire seven feet in diameter, the heat of the thing radiating off it like a furnace.
Mina stepped through and smiled at the gaping audience she had, consisting of all the hotel’s permanent residents and a few lingering cannibals. Then she turned back to face the portal and gave a wave of her arm, indicating for unknown others to follow her lead.
One by one, demons filed through, until there were six new bodies standing in the lobby, looking around with equally knowing smirks.
Fae was first to enter, her purple wings flapping excitedly behind her as she made her entrance.
Then Alina came through, her deep black eyes looking skeptically around her and her large, pointed bat ears honing in on the whispers around her. But her vampiric smile, complete with dark crimson lips and long exaggerated fangs, gave her a menacing and confident air that came with being the oldest creature in the room.
Next came Mina’s closest two friends, Astra and Lilah, the two women who had been with her the night Alastor had tried to claim Mina’s soul, so many decades ago. Astra’s dark bluish skin shimmered with waves of gold and silver as she stepped under the fluorescent light of the hotel lobby before her body settled, her instinct for camouflage the only give away of her slight nerves. Lilah’s fluffy white ermine tail twitched behind her as she came to stand next to Mina, before she flashed a toothy smile over at Alastor, who was watching the whole parade from the bar with an indecipherable smile of his own plastered on his face.
Last to come through were the twins, Kaden and Silva, hyena demons whose mischievous grins and cackling laughter were the creepiest Mina had ever seen and she adored them for it.
Besides Alina, who was more a mentor and councilor for her, and Fae who was still relatively new to her life, these were the closest friends Mina had ever had. They had been there since the beginning of her life in Hell, had seen her through thick and thin, from the disastrous beginning of her relationship with Alastor, to their wedding, to her near downfall into madness when he had disappeared. And each and every one of them were not about to miss a chance to fight beside her and get a taste of angelic blood.
___
Charlie had jumped at the opportunity to give hurried and frantic introductions to everyone. The poor girl looked exhausted but fueled by a newfound hope. She practically bounded around the hotel, giving all of her new residents a tour of . . . well, everything. Mina had to step in eventually and show her family their rooms and let them settle in their own way.
To her credit, Charlie quickly gathered that Mina had returned to working for Abaddon and that she had been in contact with her old family the whole time. Either Charlie was more open minded than Mina had initially thought her to be or whatever had happened at her meeting with Heaven had ignited a rage in Charlie that was comparable to Mina’s own. The Princess seemed excited about the idea of having angelic fire wielders on her side now and didn’t even blink an eye when Mina told her that after the battle, she would have to share her time between helping the hotel and her job as a bounty hunter.
Charlie, surprisingly, had been easy.
Alastor, Mina was afraid, would be another story.
She had told him of her plan and he had agreed that if it meant she would be able to defend herself better during the upcoming battle, then the bargain to return to work would be worth it, but he was far from happy about it. He must have slipped off somewhere during the initial introductions because one second, he had been there at the bar, looking displeased and nursing a whiskey, and the next second he had vanished.
Well, that wouldn’t do.
She had played her part in his little scheme with Charlie and he had accepted her going back to work, albeit reluctantly. Still, they’d spent a wonderful morning together, had worked together to put things in motion for the day, and to top it all off, Mina was really beginning to feel the side effects of her heat. Alastor didn’t get to succumb to his sour mood after all that.
Her body burning up, her senses on edge, and her panties already quite wet, she went in search for her sulking husband. Abaddon’s challenge to her, to ask him if he regretted his deal, still rang in her ears, but it was not her intention to bring up that sore subject just yet. Not when her other issue was now at the forefront of her mind.
___
Alastor had purposefully made himself scarce once Mina had returned with her friends in tow, finding solace first in his bayou and then when he became more restless, in a rarely used spare room upstairs. It was a lounge of sorts, with a small private bar, ice machine, television set that he unplugged for good measure, and a beautiful grand piano.
He sat down and began mindlessly playing a soft old jazz tune, one that he couldn’t find a record of down in Hell, but the muscles of his fingers retained the living memory of it nonetheless.
Mina’s friend were . . . fine, he supposed. Once upon a time, they had all gotten along very well, especially Astra and Lilah. Even after he had nearly set them on fire and locked them away when he went after Mina . . . all had been forgiven and even laughed about eventually. They had all become good friends over the years; even sending him souls to claim once in a while, ones they were certain would still cause trouble once they had finished their sentences in The Pit, if they didn’t have someone holding their leashes and controlling their actions better.
But since his disappearance, he couldn’t help feeling a bit jealous towards the lot of them. They had been there for Mina when he hadn’t been. Even if it wasn’t his choice to, Alastor had left Mina, broken her heart, torn their beautiful life to shreds, and it was her friends who had picked up the pieces in his absence.
Their very presence there in the hotel was a reminder of that, one he was not comfortable facing, so he had fled the scene before he was forced to play nice with them. He knew he would have to eventually, the extermination was still a little ways away, but tonight he just couldn’t bring himself to speak with them. Likely the group would be bouncing back and forth between the hotel and The Pit, split between their actual job and their new hobby of facing the upcoming battle.
Everything was on the line for Alastor. Everything was dependent on a successful win on Extermination Day. His plan, his deal, his life, his marriage . . . it was all so interconnected and he couldn’t even begin to explain the intricacies of how it was all messed up and meshed together now to . . . anyone.
He felt alone. A feeling that used to never bother him. He tried to push it down now, ignoring the pain of it, making mental leaps and bounds to tell himself that he was fine, but despite all his efforts, he was still hurting. And his only outlets for emotional discomfort were violence or self-isolation, and violence wasn’t an option.
Arguing silently with himself that choosing to be alone actually made him feel less alone, Alastor became so distracted that he hit a wrong piano key, the off note ringing through the air and setting him more on edge. He tried to pick things up where he had been but wasn’t even sure which part of the song he was on. Struggling, he played the song over in his mind, attempting to remember which chords began the chorus, and after a couple of failed attempts, slammed his hands down on the keys, making the piano angrily yell out at him in a protest with half a dozen loud notes.
“You seem tense, love,” Mina’s voice said from behind him, and he jumped.
He glared over his shoulder at her and then scowled at his shadow that was hanging out in the opposite corner, laughing silently. He mentally berated it for not doing its job of warning him when someone was approaching but the damn thing just slid across the walls and hovered behind Mina as she approached him.
“Do I now?” Alastor said sarcastically, turning away from her to begin playing Chopin’s Sonata No. 2, its forlorn music a stark contrast to the fake but pleasant smile he felt gracing his features. “I don’t know how that could possibly be.”
Gentle hands came to rest on his shoulders and the touch irritated him at first, but he didn’t shrug her off. He wanted to, but it would just make him feel worse and more guilty if he gave into that urge. None of this was her fault and he had pushed her away enough times over the last five months, using her as an outlet to lash out to when all he had wanted was to seek comfort in her.
Look at him, growing, maturing, being emotionally aware of himself. His mother would be proud.
He could tell Mina was just testing the waters, seeing if he would allow her to show any kind of affection. She had learned early on if she outright asked if she could touch him, it would just make him more defensive, so she had developed this little game to read his moods. A small touch, a pause, a read of his body language, and continue from there. He knew what she was doing, she knew he knew, and yet this worked the best for both of them.
“Alastor,” she said gently, keeping her hands still on his body, “this is what we talked about. We both agreed-“
“I know,” he said, cutting her off, abruptly ending the song he had been playing. He couldn’t concentrate on it anyway, with her pestering him like this.
He felt and heard her sigh behind him and then she pressed a kiss to the back of his head, near the base of his ears. A small sigh of his own escaped his chest then and with it, a bit of the angst he had been holding close to his heart. Leaning back a little, he let his head rest against her chest, and she began to purr, letting the soft vibrations sooth him further.
Her arms encircled him from behind, coming to rest just under the lapels of his jacket.
“Are you angry with me?” she asked quietly after a moment had passed.
“No,” he replied quickly.
“But you’re upset.”
“I’m fine,” he insisted.
“Okay then, have it your way,” she said, and she bent over him more, kissing along his jaw line and nipping at the soft flesh at the top of his neck, purring all the while.
“Mina, I’m not in the mood.”
“But you said you were fine,” she said, her voice now low and sultry, and she began playing with the buttons of his shirt.
He pulled her hand away with his own, standing up from his seat and looming over her.
“We just did all this earlier this morning. Is that not enough-“
Alastor took in her appearance, the rosy pink of her cheeks, the lusty smile on her face, and the wide dilated pupils, and took pause of his little rant.
“You have got to be shitting me,” he said, frustrated and flustered by the look she was giving him. “You’re in heat? Now?!”
She looked at him over heavy eyelashes, giving him a bashful but wicked grin.
“I don’t control when it happens, you know.”
“Darling, we do not have time for this.”
Her eyebrows came together in a positively adorable pout.
“Are you not going to help me, then?”
“Of course I am,” he said shortly, “don’t be ridiculous. This is just awful timing.”
“It’ll be over well before the battle gets here, love,” she said, stepping close enough to him to be chest to chest, and began undoing his bow tie.
He reached his arms around her, cupping her ass tightly in both hands, and pulling her hard against him.
“The things I do for love,” he said, letting his lips meet hers, and his shadow joined them together, transporting them back to their room.
___
Mina moaned, her mouth full of Alastor’s cock, as his tongue slipped through her wet folds, teasing her entrance before he settled his lips around her clit and gave it a deliciously hard suck.
He was beneath her, his claws digging into the round flesh of her ass, as he devoured her cunt and she returned the favor by leaning across his body and using both her hand and mouth to pleasure him. It was a race, a favorite game of theirs, to see who would cum first.
Alastor had already given her two orgasms, first with just his fingers before she was even fully undressed. She had been so hot and ready for him, his two slender long digits had slid right through her and in under a minute she had come undone, trembling as she stood on tiptoe, clinging to his shoulders for balance.
Then he had truly treated her, eating her out as she sat on his face, his long dexterous tongue fucking her cunt. It had been all she could do to grip his antlers with one hand and the headboard of their bed with her other as he relentlessly pumped his unnaturally long and wet tongue inside her, his nose teasing her clit, and she had cried and moaned above him, cumming hard a second time, but she had been far from satisfied afterwards.
He hadn’t wanted to stop anymore than she had, and continued stroking her spongey sensitive walls even after she had stopped shaking from the force of her orgasm. Mina had been happy to let him fuck her like this again but she had felt his arm moving behind her and looked over her shoulder to see him pulling himself free of his briefs and stroking his beautiful and engorged shaft. Her mouth watered at the sight of the precum that moistened the tip and she had adjusted herself over his face until she was turned the other way, in position to appreciate his cock properly.
She was already so close again, especially with the way Alastor was using his tongue on her clit, but she was working his cock with passion now, pumping with her hand at the base while she lapped and sucked what she could fit in her mouth. It was easy at this angle to fit him in until he hit the back of her throat and he thrusted up into her, properly mouth fucking her as his own orgasm began to build.
Her free hand reached around his shaft and cupped his balls, lovingly massaging them, earning her a throaty moan from her husband, his breath hot and wonderful against her dripping pussy.
The audible sounds of his own pleasure spurred on her own, making her walls clench, and he somehow knew to remove his lips from her clit with a wet pop and once again began working the soft spot just inside her walls with his tongue wide and curled just right to stroke it, over and over and over again.
She cried out, tears prickling the corner of her eyes from the pleasure and from his cock ramming the back of her throat, choking her, giving her the sensation of being properly fucked at both ends. A good amount of her drool had gathered at his base and she ran her fingers through it, gathering up the moisture before she gently ran her hand back over his sac, feeling it tighten in response.
Mina was desperately close, but Alastor was closer.
With another moan into her cunt, Alastor came hard, his seed hitting the back of her throat and coating her tongue. She continued working him with her mouth, sucking his cock until he was good and spent, licking him clean. Then she was cumming as well, gasping and moaning, her face buried into his dark curls, the musky sent of him overwhelming her senses as he lapped up her clenching cunt, her walls spasming around his tongue as her orgasm went on and on, her body jerking from the intense pleasure of it.
Finally, she felt her orgasm coming to an end and she breathed out, nearly in relief, and swung her legs away and adjusted her position until she was laying next to Alastor, face to face.
He wiped at his chin and then pulled her close, kissing her sweetly and slowly, his hands roaming over her upper body, knowing she wasn’t quite done for the evening.
She could smell the scent of herself all over his face and she began to purr, enjoying the feeling of having claimed him. Her heat was like his rut; making her extra territorial, often even aggressive, and with the dying need to be bred and possessive of her mate. There was no biological purpose to these cycles, and for most demon forms that went through them, it was more a punishment than anything. A loss of control, an insatiable need that drove some to madness, but when there was a proper outlet for it, like Mina and Alastor had found in each other, there was much fun to be had.
And Alastor seemed to thoroughly enjoy himself during her cycles. Though he wasn’t a man of many kinks (outside of his own rut) and had a lower libido than Mina did, he liked feeling wanted and really got off on how much Mina desired him when she was in heat.
The first time they had been intimate while she was in cycle, she had been almost appalled at how needy she still was after he had already made her cum several times. She had tried to be polite and let him know she didn’t expect him to keep going but he would have none of it. They might take small breaks until he could get it up again and even when he was fully spent and quite literally drained, he found creative ways to continue. After all, he had plenty of other appendages at his disposal.
She felt one of them now, just beginning to ghost across her skin, tracing a pattern across her lower back and down her backside before playfully beginning to wrap itself around her upper thigh.
Alastor seemed preoccupied, sucking and biting hard at her neck, pinching and lightly twisting a nipple with his hand, but she knew he was in complete control of the tentacle that was dancing across her flesh. Mina also knew they weren’t numb; he had told her once he could feel perfectly well with them, and that while it wasn’t exactly the same as using his own natural flesh on her, he still received some amount of pleasurable sensations when he fucked her with his shadows.
Mina parted her thighs, inviting the slithering darkness to continue its upward coil and meet her at her apex.
Alastor’s hand left her breast and he raked his nails down her torso, leaving red welts on her belly, stopping when his fingertips met her mound and becoming much more gentle when he began circling her clit. The tentacle found its destination and with Mina already wet and stimulated, it penetrated her easily.
Together, Alastor’s shadow and his fingers worked her cunt, with slow lingering circles and pulses that were perfectly in sync with each other. She panted and whimpered at the smoldering pace, arching her hips up to deepen the angle, and Alastor captured her lusty moans with his mouth. He was taking his time with her this round, allowing her pleasure to build in a sensual, loving manner. Even with the unusual nature of this kind of love making, Alastor could make even a kinky tentacle fucking feel like the most romantic bedroom session imaginable.
The most wonderful part of the shadow’s ability was that it didn’t just thrust in and out of her but it pulsed. Like a heartbeat, its width ebbed and flowed, stretching her walls in rhythm with each stroke, a unique form of stimulus that no other part of Alastor’s body or toy available for purchase could simulate.
This went on for several minutes, Alastor slowing his movements each time she got close to another orgasm, until she was at the limit of her patience. Mina gripped at his hair, right at the base of his sensitive ears, begging him to let her cum.
She could feel his erection, renewed and hard for her, pressed against her side as he continued to tease her.
Though dirty talk was a rare thing for him to partake in, he enjoyed hearing the words from her lips, loved hearing her beg him for more.
“Please, love,” she whispered, her voice desperate and needy.
“Please what?” he asked, smirking against her skin, pressing a tender kiss to her jaw line.
She whimpered as his fingers quickened their pace on her clit, but then slowed back down when she didn’t respond right away.
“Please let me cum. Please, please, please,” she begged, rocking her hips in an attempt to increase the pressure and depth of the tentacle that had come to a near standstill in her throbbing cunt. “Please fuck me. Harder, God, please, Al’. Harder.”
“And then what? What shall I do to you next, hmmm?” he asked, his voice sweet, but his teeth on her neck were anything but.
He let the shadow begin to pulse inside her again, his fingers pressed almost painfully down on her clit, and she cried out in relief as she felt her orgasm begin to build again.
“Then I want your cock,” she said, letting her voice turn practically guttural in her wanton need for him. “Please. Cum inside me. Breed me. Make me yours.”
“So filthy,” he chided, but he smiled with satisfaction and gave her what she was asking for.
His fingers and tentacle worked her at a positively deadly pace until she came unraveled. Alastor bit down on her neck where his teeth had been only teasing her before, his love bite spilling her blood on the pillow beneath her as she succumbed to another long and deep orgasm.
She barely had time to catch her breath before he was pulling the shadowy tendril out of her. It evaporating into nothing even as it raised above them, as Alastor forcefully repositioned her so that he could fit his body between her legs.
Despite still reeling from her orgasm, Mina eagerly reached between them, lifting her hips as she helped guide his cock inside her.
He wasted no time in setting a hard and brutal pace, snapping his hips into her own. Mina could feel the pounding against her cervix as he filled her up and enjoyed the mix of pleasure and pain that taking a dick almost too large for her gave her. She breathed deeply, letting her muscles relax around his girth, and the stinging sensation began to subside, allowing her body to respond properly to the intoxicating feeling of his cock thrusting inside her.
Hip to hip, chest to chest, and face to face, they rocked against each other, both sweaty and now lightly streaked with Mina’s blood. Her hands tangled in his hair again, holding him close, feeding off the intimacy of the position.
Alastor’s ruby eyes, always the most expressive part of him, shown with adoration and lust, his breathing becoming labored and ragged as they continued to feed off of each other’s pleasure.
Mina lowered one arm, reaching around him and clutched at his ass, encouraging him to ram into her deeper and harder than before, even if she wasn’t sure she could take it. Her heat made her insane for him, made her want him to break her back and split her in two if it meant fucking her more. More than even her own pleasure, she wanted his seed in her, wanted to feel her pussy spilling over with his cum. So she reached even further until her fingertips found soft fur and wrapped her fingers around his tail and began stroking.
Alastor paused his thrusting to grab her arm, gripping it hard enough to bruise, and forced her hand back into the mattress, pinning her helplessly beneath him.
“No,” he said harshly, picking up his pace again, burying himself to the hilt, painfully enough to make her cry out, although it was also exactly what her needy cunt was begging for.
“I just want to make you cum,” she purred.
He caught her other hand and moved them both until he had then pressed into the pillow above her head. She wrapped her legs around his waist in response, locking her ankles together where his tail met his lower back. His cock stretched her out even more at this angle, and she could feel the pressure of his tip deep in her lower belly. It burned, it hurt, and it felt so amazing, and she felt the coil of her next orgasm begin to heat up and tighten within her.
“I will,” he growled, his eyes squeezing shut as she clenched her muscles around his length. “Be patient.”
She watched, fascinated and turned on as his antlers began to widen and spread out above them, and when he opened his eyes again, the irises had gone completely black. Mina smiled up at him, feeling a sultry, feminine pride at the sight of him losing control above her.
“Bite me again,” she pleaded, and he did, sinking his teeth into her shoulder and she screamed, coming instantly, her pussy clenching around his shaft impossibly tighter.
He let go of her wrists, wordlessly giving her permission to touch him again, and she had hold of his tail before she had stopped shuddering beneath him. She pressed the pads of her fingers into the bottom side, feeling the softest, shortest fur there, and let her strokes massage over the bumps of each little vertebrae. Alastor sucked on the wound on her shoulder, his tongue lapping over the blood that began to run from the teeth marks, as he gasped softly, his voice a stark difference from the menacing and demonic visage of his face and antlers. Mina felt his cock twitch inside her and then the warm rush she had so desired as he came, filling her up and marking her as his mate the way her hormonal body needed him to.
The tension left their bodies in unison as they collapsed together in post coital bliss. Alastor pulled out of her and rolled to his side, and Mina followed, snuggling into his chest as he brought one arm around her shoulders. He kissed her forehead before letting his head fall back into the pillows, his breathing still hard and labored, even as hers settled into gentle little purrs.
Mina was sated, for now, her body pleasantly sore and content, though she knew in a few hours she would likely be attacking him again, probably in the middle of the night. By the end of the next day, her heat would be back to something much more manageable, but Alastor was likely going to have to find excuses to sneak away with her several times tomorrow, despite the busy day they were supposed to have and his position as manager.
She felt a little bad about the timing of it but as she had said, it wasn’t as if she could control it. And luckily for her, Alastor was a good sport about helping her through it, considering his rut lasted at least two weeks in the fall and brought Mina’s life to a complete standstill as she had to constantly satisfy his violent and libidinous desires.
“I love you,” she said, giving his chest an appreciative kiss, before settling back down into his embrace.
“I love you, too,” he mumbled, sounding sleepy and utterly spent.
Poor thing. He had had a day of it, between having to take care of her hangover and indulging a needful reunion with her first thing that morning, then expending Heaven knew how much energy on making the deal with Charlie, then parading the princess through Cannibal Town, and then coming back to a hotel full of new residents, and having to accept her returning to work for Abaddon and doing his best to cover up his anxiety over that matter. And then she had stolen him away from his first moment of privacy all day, begging for him to fuck her senseless.
It truly was a show of his love and devotion for her that he had so easily agreed to indulge her needs, even with him already so tired and irritated.
Their life was still far from perfect, still in tatters compared to what they had shared before his disappearance. Some days it still felt like the fate of their marriage was hanging by a thread, all the secrets and the deal for his soul something that couldn’t easily be ignored.
Abaddon’s words returned to her thoughts then, their challenge to ask Alastor if he regretted making his deal, echoed in her mind.
Mina sat up, just enough to look at Alastor, and found him with his eyes already closed, his expression, that ever-present smile, softening and disappearing as he quickly succumbed to sleep.
She brushed a bit of his hair from his face, pressed a kiss between his eyes, and he hummed in response, his lips quirking up into a small grin, but his eyes remained closed.
Her sweet, exhausted, adorable husband.
One thing she didn’t have to question were his feelings for her. He loved her and she would never let herself doubt that again, regardless of whatever bad decisions he made.
As much as Mina wondered about his feelings regarding his deal, almost afraid to know the answer, though she had suspected all along what it would be, she didn’t want to hear it that night any more than she wanted to disturb Alastor.
Choosing to let him rest; choosing peace and happiness for at least one more night, Mina lay back down beside him and let sleep find her as well.

———————————————
August 2026
“Deep breathes, darlin’,” his hands were smooth against her shoulders, instantly calming her nerves. Y/n took a deep inhale, nodding as she slowly let the air leave her lips. Jake beamed at her, “This ain’t the first time you’ve been on stage. You got this.”
“I know, but performing on live television for millions of people is different than a few thousand in a venue,” she reminded him, feeling the anxiety return causing her to close her eyes. “It’s been six years since my last VMA performance, Jake. Also,” she nervously laughs, “This is the Vanguard award they’re giving me—I’m, quite literally, shitting my pants. I want this to be amazing.” To be fair the reason for her not being invited back to the VMAs was a mini break from music she went on after they got married in 2021. The birth of their children was another factor so it wasn’t until late 2025 that Y/n had released the music she’d been working on.
The break was much needed, but she was missing the stage, the touring, the fans. It was what kept her going and made her career worth it. Music was her life, but so was her family which is why she took so long to release an album. Now here she was years later about to step foot on the VMA stage for the first time in six years. Another thing that made it worthwhile was she was being honored with the MTV Video Vanguard Award. Leading up news outlets were covering her return and on the red carpet reporters were eager to know what Y/n was cooking up.
“And it will be,” he told her, cupping her face in his hands, careful not to mess up the gemstones and glitter around her eyes. She could feel the cool metal of his wedding band against her skin. “You are one of the best vocalists of our generation—the High Note Princess. One of the best stage performers of all time—it’s gonna be an amazing show. You’ve been working so hard for months,” he gives a comforting squeeze to her shoulders. “So just breathe with me and then you’ll go out there and sing your pretty little heart out. And it’s gonna be the best performance of the night.”
As she mentally prepared while waiting for the stage manager, Y/n leaned more into Jake’s arms and let her mind wander. Memories started to appear, reeling back to when her career kicked off all the way to when she met her husband and finally to the present day.
February 2008
Like any aspiring star, Y/n L/n made the rash decision to quit college and move to Los Angeles in hopes of achieving her goal of becoming a singer. Hollywood was calling her name, so she spent months applying to jobs in the area before finding a small studio apartment and packed up her little Honda and set sail for the city where dreams are made. Time would be the make or break factor if she stayed or retreated back home with her tail between her legs.
One year.
That was her deadline. One year to get a job at a label, get discovered, or possibly find something worth renewing her lease. Working as a singer at a jazz bar could possibly have one of the options come true. Again, it would take time before something happened.
Y/n wasn’t the only singer at the club. Another girl was on stage Monday’s, Wednesday’s, and Saturday’s whereas Y/n was booked Tuesday’s, Thursday’s, and Friday’s. The club was closed Sunday’s and the nights Y/n didn’t sing she was a server or bartender. The pay was good for the most part with her tips racking in more income than the biweekly check for singing and serving. Sometimes she’d get compliments from patrons, especially the older crowd saying, “You have such a unique voice—the way you have control and range makes me think you should be on the radio and not some little jazz club like this. Your talent shouldn’t be wasted, dear.”
The words and support always boosted Y/n’s confidence. Truly did it make her feel she could make it big. Actually break through into the industry. But that takes time and sometimes the opportunity arises when one least expects it.
Maybe she could audition for American Idol. Maybe she could upload videos on that new website YouTube. Maybe she could be bold and send some demos to labels, praying it would land on someone’s desk.
Or, someone important from said label would wander into the club.
That idea seemed like a far stretch. But just three months shy of Y/n’s deadlines she was approached by a gentleman after she finished her number one Friday night. A business card in his hand, he said, “Give me a call Monday morning, I’d like to set up a meeting to talk with you about your potential. Bring some demos if you have any.”
A notebook of songs in her hand and a CD of demos she spent the whole weekend working on, Y/n left Capitol Records that morning with a copy of her contract in hand and the promise of bringing forth the best music of her life. There were tears shed as she relayed the exciting news to her family back home. Her coworkers whom she adored threw her a party at the club in celebration that night. She wouldn’t leave the club just yet. Just because she had signed didn’t mean she would make it big in the long run. No, she decided to stay at the club until she at least was at the level where she could financially afford to.
The first time Y/n heard herself on the radio she broke into tears. It happened unexpectedly too. After packing up her car with two weeks worth of groceries that cost her entire paycheck Y/n switched the the radio to the pop station and was singing along to the tunes when she heard the beginning chords to her song, ‘Teenage Dream.’ Cars honked around after she slammed the brakes and abruptly pulled to the side of the road, eyes wide with her hands covering her mouth.
“You think I’m pretty without any makeup on. You think I’m funny when I tell the punchline wrong. I know you get me, so I let my walls come down, down.”
Y/n literally changed the channel just to change it back to make sure she wasn’t dreaming. That it was actually her song playing.
“Before you met, I was alright, but things were kinda heavy. You brought me to life, now every February, you’ll be Valentine. Valentine.”
“Let’s go all the way tonight. No regrets, just love. We can dance, until we die. You and I, will be young forever.”
“Oh my God!!!” She got out of her car just to scream while jumping up & down. People on the sidewalk were looking at her crazy but she didn’t care. Not when her own song was blasting from her car on the radio.
“You make me, feel like I’m living a Teenage Dream. The way you turn me on, I can’t sleep. Let's run away and don’t ever look back. Don’t ever look back.”
Y/n’s entire life took a 180 after that very day. Her talent agent and manager from Capital Records were calling her saying she was on the Billboard Hot 100. They were planning on releasing her second single earlier than planned in order to push up the release of her album. Every radio station was playing ‘Teenage Dream,’. There were days Y/n would be in a store and would hear in playing, causing her to break out in a grin.
Before long Y/n was getting calls left in right with her manager and publicist securing television appearances and interviews. Her second single ‘Firework’ was an instant hit, becoming a gold certified record in just a few weeks. People auditioning for X-Factor and American Idol were covering it. Videos being posted to YouTube. Then Y/n released ‘Last Friday Night,’, becoming a popular song for teenagers and young adults. The full album shot her off into stardom.
“SNL?” She dropped her muffin, staring wide eyed at her manager. “SNL wants me to perform?”
“I got Lorne Micheals on the phone—I literally have him on hold—and he’s awaiting your answer.”
“Tell him my answer is ‘fuck yeah!’”
“I’ll tell him…you said yes.”
The appearance on SNL only increased Y/n’s popularity. Following it was invitations to the Kids & Teen Choice Awards, the Billboard Music Awards and the MTV VMAS, in which she won Best New Artist at all shows and Song of The Summer at the TCA’s. The first time she won she was a stuttering mess, thanking the fans and people who voted for her and her family, managers, execs at Capitol Records all while trying not to cry on live television.
Then the 2009 Grammys happened. And she won Best Pop Album and Record of The Year for ‘Last Friday Night’. Her hands shook as she accepted the award from none other than Usher, trying not to fangirl as she approached the microphone. She was never gonna get used to meeting the people she admired.
“O-oh wow,” she stuttered over the screams, feeling the cool surface of the award in her hand. A Grammy. She was a Grammy Award winning recording artist. “This is the greatest honor I’ve ever received—bigger than when I graduated with high school honors,” she laughed nervously, causing people in the crowd to smile at her. “Huge thank you to the Recording Academy for this award. It’s an honor to be part of a group with so many artists I admire—some of whom I’ve listened to for years a-and I can’t believe I have the privilege of being in your presence. I-I wanna take a moment to thank everyone at Capitol Records, my managers Raven and Paul. To everyone who helped me on this album who put their heart and soul into it—this award is not just mine it’s yours. To my family watching at home, I know you’re all losing your minds in front of the tv,” she grinned at the laughs around her, “I love you all so so much and thank you for your support—helping me get to where I am. I’m sorry if I forgot anyone else—t-there telling me to wrap up—b-but thank you—thank you so much for this, I’m so blessed and honored—I can’t even put it into words. Thank you!”
All of 2009-2010 was dedicated to her second album. Y/n was in the studio, writing songs on napkins when she was out with friends, mentally hearing the tunes in her head. She presented and performed at award shows and she went on tour. The goal was to have the songs ready and written by the time the tour ended. Luckily she achieved that goal with at least twenty potential for an album. Anytime Y/n found inspiration she made sure to write it down as quickly as possible.
Now with two Grammys under her name, one of which was for her debut album, the pressure was on.
“This is totally different from what you’ve been doing,” her producer said to her after reading the songs.
“I know, that’s the whole point,” she gave a pointed look, “I don’t want everything to be or sound the same. This is gonna have a different sound than what we did last year. Trust me it’s gonna be big.”
Might as well call her psychic cause that’s exactly what she was.
“It’s been a great week for popstar Y/n L/n, her recent single ‘Summertime Sadness,’ has shot to the top spot of this week’s Billboard Hot 100. A new sound that’s more mellow than her previous work, it’s been well received by fans and critics. L/n is finishing up the American leg of her world tour and is set to release her second studio album in the fall. Just two years ago L/n became an international star after winning two Grammys for her debut album and appearing on television such as Saturday Night Live, Ellen Degeneres, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. With her unique voice and style she’s been viewed as the next pop diva, joining that of Madonna, Britney Spears, and Lady Gaga.”
‘Video Games’ was released when the tour concluded and it became her best single to date. The music video was played on MTV early in the mornings and predicted to be nominated for every award one could think of. It was that single combined with the critical acclaim from her album in 2011 that had Baz Luhrmann calling Y/n to write a song for his upcoming 2013 movie ‘The Great Gatsby.’
“And the Oscar goes to….” Y/n’s hand clutched her manager’s, keeping a calm face since the camera was panned on her and the other nominees. In Halle Berry’s hand was the envelope with the winner of the 2014 Oscar for ‘Best Original Song.’ Heart pumping out of her chest, she barely registered her song and name leaving the actress's lips. “Young & Beautiful,’ by Y/n L/n.”
Baz jumped from his seat, as did her manager and producer, the latter of whom she was sharing the Oscar with. A hand flew to her mouth, feeling her arm tugged as they lifted her from her seat while the theater erupted in applause. It felt like she was floating when she approached the stairs, taking the arm of her producer when he offered her help.
“Congratulations,” Halle said, opening her arms for a congratulatory hug before handing the gold statue to the singer. Y/n let out a mix of a sob and laugh as she replied, “T-thank you.”
Another statue was presented to her producer, Y/n waiting for the applause to end until giving her speech.
“O-oh my God, I just met Halle Berry,” there were some chuckles, the singer pausing to hold a hand to her thumping heart while the other clutched the Oscar. “I-I don’t know how to start. First, thank you to the Academy foremost—it’s an honor to be receiving this recognition. Shout out to the other nominees and their incredible work—you all are amazing and we’re so lucky to be almost you all. We all have one major thing in common, and that’s music. Music and movies bring people together—it’s a universal language that we get to be a part of and I am so grateful everyday for being a part of it. Thank you to Baz for allowing us this opportunity—it was so fun working on this song for you and your spectacular film. This Oscar is for you, Baz,” she saw the director blow a kiss from his seat. “Thank you to my producer, Tim—who’s standing right next to me. The magic behind Young & Beautiful, Tim you are a genius and I love you so much. Lastly, to my family back home—ah!” She waved the trophy like a little kid, “Look! I love you all so so much—thank you and I can’t wait to celebrate with you when I come home. Thank you everyone!”
Each year came with more success. The rest of 2014 going all the way to 2016 was nonstop energy. She was working day and night, touring, performing on talk shows, collaborating with other artists—like Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, The Weekend, & Justin Bieber—and dabbling in acting jobs. Y/n secured roles in films like The Greatest Showman, The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials & Death Cure, & The Shape of Water. Some television roles included MTV’s Teen Wolf, American Horror Story and guest appearances on Criminal Minds, Greys Anatomy, and Doctor Who. Her role on AHS garnered her an Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. After the award show her manager told her with a wink, “All you need is a Tony and you’re part of the EGOT club.”
EGOT. The ‘grand slam’ in show business. Where only more than a dozen people have achieved the status in which they have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony. The biggest awards in television, music, film, and theater.
After she heard that….well you could say Y/n was on a mission.
She continued to release music while pursuing acting. She leased her third and fourth studio albums in the span of eight months—a rare sighting for an artist. Both broke records in their own right. ‘Break Free,’ was playing in every club and ‘Imagine’ was used in Riverdale. She won the Grammy for best Pop album once again and performed ‘Imagine’ at the show. The second it was revealed she got the role of Christine in Broadway’s Phantom of the Opera, the buzz was already on if she would achieve EGOT status if she was nominated for the Tony.
The show opened in early 2017, selling out at a rapid rate with people coming from all over the country solely to watch Y/n perform. She already showed the world she was a brilliant singer and actress, now it was time to combine the two.
Never did she think she’d meet the love of her life at a show.
Jake Seresin wasn’t much of a musical man, but his sister and nieces were so he sucked it up and attended with them. Now Jake wasn’t living under a rock, he damn well knew who Y/n L/n was and frankly the man was a fan. A lot of his exes were fans of the popstar so he was quite familiar with her music and even enjoyed her acting. So of course he was more keen to the idea of going to a Broadway show if it meant he got to see her perform live.
What he didn’t expect was to—literally—run into her on his way back to the hotel. After telling his sister he’d pick food up since her daughters were too tired to go to a restaurant, Jake took a shortcut which happened to be the alley between the show venue. The bag in his hand dropped, the pilot falling to his ass when the door suddenly opened and hit smack in the face.
“Oh my God, I’m so sorry!” A voice shouted followed by a gasp. “Are you okay, sir? ‘Please don’t have blood-please don’t have blood.’
“I’m fine,” he moaned, shaking his head a bit and feeling for any sign of a wound. Thankfully he found none. “It’s alright, ma’am.”
“Here let me,” she helped him up, Jake stumbling a bit and apologizing when he bumped into her. “Are you sure you’re okay? Do you need me to call an ambulance in case you have a concussion?”
“No, no,” he insisted, finally looking up which only resulted in him freezing. The woman he watched on stage not even an hour ago was standing in front of him. “Oh wow.”
Y/n was frozen too, for he was the most attractive man she’d ever laid eyes on. The glow from the street light shined down on him, illuminating his green eyes and blonde hair. His bone structure was what most Hollywood heartthrobs would die for. Come to think of it he could literally pass as a young James Dean.
“H-hi,” she smiled, feeling a bit flustered all of a sudden. It didn’t help that he was still holding onto her shoulders, and she was clutching his forearms.
“Hi.” Gosh even his voice was attractive. A southern accent could be made out with the simple word.
“I’m so sorry for not looking before pushing the door out like that. I—,” Y/n cut herself off when she spotted the discarded bag of what appeared to be food. Some of it spilled out causing guilt to fill her, “Oh gosh, I’m so sorry about your food.” Stepping away she reached into her bag to pull out her wallet. “How much was—.”
“Don’t worry about it,” Jake says, but the singer shakes her head.
“No I insist,” she takes out a random amount of bills which was likely triple what he had actually paid but she didn’t care. She extended her hand out with the cash, “I rammed a door into you and made you drop your food. Please let me make it up—otherwise I’m gonna have to drag you to the place you got it from and replace it myself.”
Jake couldn’t help but smile, taking the cash and examining it before only keeping the amount he had originally paid. “No need to give me more than what it was worth. Here,” he hands back the extra, making her frown but she takes it regardless. Her eyebrows then raise when he goes, “But you could make it up to me in another way?”
Tilting her head, she can’t help but say, “How so?”
“By having a drink with me. If you’re available.”
So that’s how Y/n L/n met her soulmate. By hitting him face first with a door. He literally fell for her if one thought about it—pun intended.
What made it even better was Broadway not only gifted her future husband, but her status as an EGOT winner.
“Last night was a record breaking night for popstar Y/n L/n. The 30-year-old singer and actress has become one of just over a dozen to join the prestigious EGOT Club after winning the Tony for her Leading Actress in a Musical for her role of Christine in Broadway’s Phantom Of The Opera. L/n won the Grammy for Best Pop Album and Record of The Year in 2009 followed by the Oscar for Best Original Song in 2014 for The Great Gatsby. She then went on to appear in several television series including the popular horror series American Horror Story in which she won the Emmy for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. It was rumored L/n would venture into Broadway to possibly add a Tony to her collection of numerous awards, confirming this in mid-2016 when the cast for the 2017 run of Andrew Webber’s Phantom Of The Opera was released. Classically trained as a child, the popstar showed she can belt a lyric and hold a tune. It was a spectacular night for Y/n L/n, receiving a standing ovation when her name was called for the award and dedicating the Tony to her family, friends, cast members, and managers who’ve been with her since her debut in the music industry almost a decade ago. She is one of the youngest stars to ever achieve EGOT status and the fastest ever in a career.”
Many many songs were inspired by her relationship with Jake. Her entire album released a year after they got together was basically a love letter to him. ‘Love Song’ was regarded as her most beautiful record to date, a source for many fan-made videos for their favorite fictional characters and features in movie soundtracks. ‘Love Me Harder,’ & ‘34+35’ had fans go crazy with how frisky they were. Though their relationship was a secret it was obvious the popstar was in love. It only made fans want to know who was the special man to take her heart.
Jake learned pretty early on the price that came with dating a critically acclaimed songwriter: that if messed up there would be a song about it.
Immediately speculations arose that Y/n and her secret partner were broken up with the release of songs like ‘Woman Like Me,’ & ‘Power.’ She had to get on instagram one day to settle the rumors with a picture of their interlaced hands saying, “You drive me wild sometimes, but my love for you overpowers all.”
Their relationship was eventually exposed when Jake appeared in her music video for ‘Secret Love Song,’ released just shortly before he was set to return to Top Gun. People could easily tell the chemistry between Y/n and her ‘love interest’.
Maybe a little too much chemistry.
Dedicated fans were able to find out who Jake was in less than a week. Matching up his social media post locations and dates with hers, they didn’t even need them to confirm their suspicion to know they were together.
“I guess the cat’s out of the bag,” Jake chuckled, showing Y/n his phone screen with a picture that was just sent to TMZ of the two in San Francisco.
Y/n simply shrugged, “I’m fine with it if you are. I’m happy we got to keep it to ourselves for this long. And considering people are now asking about this—,” she held up her left hand, flashing the diamond engagement ring Jake spent his entire year’s paychecks on. “It was bound to happen sooner or later.”
Was Jake still the arrogant, egotistical pilot amongst his peers? Yes. But was he the type to boast about how he was engaged to one of the best musical artists of the century? Surprisingly no.
He actually enjoyed keeping that little detail a secret. To Jake his personal life was for him and him only. And he didn’t want people going around saying he was a gold-digger or wanting to be that guy who got to say he hooked up with a celebrity. Nah, he was in love with Y/n with his entire being. She was the gravity that kept him down to Earth. Sure they bickered like any couple but never once did either of them cross a line.
The only time they ever had a big argument was when he did get jealous over one of her former co-stars trying to have a shot at her. Y/n tried brushing it off saying it was nothing, but Jake could tell the signs and it upset him Y/n was not taking him seriously. “I just don’t see why you’re being so childish about a dinner party that’s gonna have multiple people.”
“Have you even asked who else is coming? Or wondered why he’s started texting you more when you guys finished filming ages ago? I’m not trying to be insecure or jealous, Y/n, but I know when a guy is trying to flirt. He didn’t even acknowledge me as your date when we were at the premier party. In fact I don’t think he said hello to me when he approached. All his eyes were was on you—which I don’t blame because you’re the most beautiful woman on the planet—but trust me, I know that look because I have it every second I’m with you.”
Needless to say you didn’t go to that dinner party and instead were doing what ‘Love Song’ was about the entire weekend.
When Jake goes to Top Gun for the special detachment, he’s still the arrogant asshole the others thought him to be. But if they were being honest they could see a difference in him. Maybe it was because he wasn’t flirting with anything with legs. Maybe it was the fact he rejected the drink from a pretty blonde. Maybe it was because they caught him smiling at his phone whenever he got a text. Whatever it was, they wanted to find out.
The only person in the detachment who knew of Y/n was Javy considering he was Jake’s best friend. She met him roughly eight months after she and Jake got together after much discussion. Their relationship was still a secret by then so they were hesitant to let anyone besides her team know, but Javy was an important person to Jake. He wanted his best friend to know the woman he loved.
Natasha being the amateur sleuth she was pretty much discovered Jake’s secret in a few days, “No fucking way.”
The evidence was presented to Jake during their lunch break the day after she found out, Nat holding the phone up for him to see. She literally watched the gears turn in his head, a sly smirk forming on his lips. “What about that, Trace?” The question caught the attention of their colleagues, who were trying not to show they were eavesdropping.
“Is that not you?” Nat looked at the screen to make sure it was on the zoomed in image of him and Y/n L/n. The entire music video Jake’s face was pretty much hidden from view, but briefly his face could be made out at certain angles.
“It is,” he shrugged, going back to his sandwich. A cluttered sound indicated Nat had dropped the phone on the table, scrambling to pick it up.
“So you just casually ended up in Y/n L/n’s music video for her iconic song?” By now heads turned, expressions of absolute shock. Well all except Coyote. He just raised his brows at Jake while holding back a laugh, wanting to see what he would say.
“No, I ended up in my fiancé’s music video for her iconic song.”
“You’re what?!”
“Babe, I got a favor to ask you,” Jake’s voice was tainted with exhaustion when he FaceTimed Y/n that night. She was at their Fresno home since he was stationed at NAS Lemoore and was planning to meet him in San Diego that weekend. Raising a brow at him through the screen she could tell he looked apologetic.
“What is it?”
“You think you could come down earlier than planned?” At her reaction he explained, “My detachment found out about us and well……they’re accusing me of photoshopping the photos of you and I—even though they literally saw us make out in your music video. And I want to prove to them I’m telling the truth.”
A moment passed and then Y/n burst into laughter to the point of tears. What got her was the photoshopping accusation.
“Stop laughing,” he pouted, “I’m fighting for me life out here—I could use some backup.”
“My goodness, Jake Seresin,” she calmed down, shaking her head at his butt hurt expression. “You’re something else you know?”
“So does that mean you’re coming?”
“I’ll book my flight for the morning as soon as we get off.”
One could envision the confusion on the pilots/WSOs when Jake prevented them from leaving the airstrip at the end of the work day. It was pushing five in the afternoon, they were tired and hungry, and honestly could care less about what Jake had to show them.
That was until the black SUV with tinted windows pulled up to the parking lot where they were standing. When the door opened jaws dropped to the floor with eyes bulging out at the person emerging from the vehicle. Who happened to jump into Jake’s awaiting arms. Fanboy had to rub his eyes to make sure he was seeing clearly. That it was Y/n L/n sharing a kiss with the resident asshole.
“Oh my God he wasn’t kidding,” Rooster said with a mix of awe and disbelief. Javy patted him on the chest, moving first to greet the popstar who shocked the pilots again with her warm welcome to them. None knew how to react when the couple approached hand in hand.
It’s not everyday someone meets a fucking EGOT winner.
“Hello,” Y/n smiled a dazzling grin, drifting her eyes over each of them and committing their callsign to memory. She could tell what they were likely thinking, ‘How the hell did Hangman manage to pull a fucking popstar?’ And ‘He must be brainwashing her, blink twice if you need help,’ kind of stuff.
Introductions were in store as well as explanations for how the couple came to be. In all the years they knew the pilot, none could’ve predicted that kind of secret. They quickly learned Y/n was not the typical celebrity—some of them were even ashamed to think she’d be stuck up, arrogant, snobbish. They were almost convinced the personality she had in interviews and fan interactions were fake, but Y/n was a truly genuine person. Not only did she come from humble beginnings, but she was a hard, driven worker who truly earned everything she’s gained.
And she was perfect for Jake. They were like two peas in a pod, with Y/n being the only one who could bring him back down to earth. Truly was an amazing thing to witness and the daggers were having trouble comprehending it at times. Hearing the story of how the two met brought tears to Rooster and Fanboy’s eyes by how funny it was, while Phoenix was covering her mouth to hide her smirk at how embarrassed her colleague was.
“In my defense,” he puts his hands on his chest when Bob asks why he thought to pass the side door, “I didn’t expect anyone to still be inside and potentially use that door.”
“He just hates when I tease him about how he literally fell for me,” Y/n winks, making them all smirk.
Later on in the night after going to the Hard Deck for drinks and pool, Rooster says, “You know I feel I won’t be able to use my karaoke song if we ever go cause I’ll be too flustered to sing a song in front of the person it’s written by.” Y/n couldn’t help but blush, giggling lightly.
“What is it?”
“Last Friday Night. Such a banger—really gets the crows going.”
Even after the Uranium mission happened, the daggers continued to remain in contact. Many were offered jobs of instructors but the real surprise came a couple months later from the Pentagon asking if they could remain a permanent team. Selling their San Francisco home, Jake and Y/n moved to San Diego, which was better since it was closer to L.A. The team hung out often with Friday nights reserved for the Hard Deck.
Y/n even found musical inspiration with them.
“So I have a proposal,” she hums to Nat and Callie one day while the guys are playing football on the beach. “Not a marriage one Jake claimed that one already,” she pauses when they all laugh at the joke, “but a ‘if you want to be a part of it I would love it if you did but I understand if you can't be’ kind of one.”
Nat tilts her head curiously, Callie mirroring her, “What is it?”
“I wrote a song….that you two helped inspire,” Y/n smiles at their expressions, “and I’d love for you both to be in the music video after I release it.”
Nat loses it, “OH MY GOD YOU WHAT?!!”
“Can we hear it!?” Callie blushes, “I’m so honored—oh my God I literally don’t know how to react to that.”
“Girl you cannot just drop that on us,” Nat playfully points with narrowed eyes, “If you weren’t Jake’s soon to be wife I would marry you right now.” Y/n just laughs, rummaging through her bag to find her notebook to show them the song.
“If he messes up you’ll be the first to know and we can head to the courthouse.”
“Don’t play with me now, Y/n,” Nat shakes her head. “No man has ever done something like that. Write a song inspired by me?” She gives a dramatic sigh. “Feels like I’m living in a romance novel.”
Both read the song, both fell in love with it and pretty much cried. It was empowering, motivational, a love letter to women, everything they wished they heard growing up in a field where men dominated and looked down upon them. Y/n made sure to keep them updated when she was in the studio, allowing them to hear it first before it was released.
2020 was a year no one could’ve expected.
It started off great with the singer releasing ‘Salute,’ shortly after the New Year and filing the music video in February. The song was well received from fans and critics, with people already calling it the ‘anthem of the year.’ Jake loved it and would send clips of him in the car to Y/n belting the lyrics. The guys all loved it too and loved that their colleagues were the source of inspiration.
Halo and Phoenix were part of the MV as well as women who in real life were doctors, nurses, lawyers, teachers, athletes, students, astronauts, & scientists from all ages, races/ethnicities, genders, etc. Not all of them were in the armed forces, but a couple were along with Nat and Callie. Special permission from the Navy & Top Gun was needed to put cameras in the F-18’s on the exterior and interior to capture footage of the two flying. Halo was Nat’s backseater for that day and the guys came out just to watch and support.
Released just before March, the music video hit 100 million views in less than 12 hours. It only grew from there with people praising Y/n and the women included in the project. There was talk of ‘Salute’ being nominated for the upcoming awards, Team USA asked permission to use the song for promotion for their women athletes for the upcoming Games. Y/n was over the moon, really looking forward for what the year held. Especially with her wedding around the corner.
Then the world shut down. Literally.
A global pandemic altered everything and everyone. Anything that required a group of people ranging from small to stadium level was banned. States were on curfew and not letting people cross borders, international traveling was restricted. Lockdown was mandated for pretty much everywhere to the point Jake was working from home for a couple months.
In that time Y/n threw herself into writing songs to release her next album. Her reason: she was in need of a break. Not a ‘I’m retiring from music,’ but a ‘I’m drained and in dire need of taking time for myself and start the family I’ve always wanted.’ It was always her plan for after she and Jake got married, just to have a few years for themselves and see where life takes them.
Thankfully when the pandemic hit Y/n was already done with her collaboration with Lady Gaga. The fellow popstar had been her friend since she joined the industry and it was a long time coming for the two to work together. Not to mention they were on American Horror Story together. The Mother Monster approached the High Note Princess in late 2019, both sharing ideas and writing the song together before recording to release in 2020. Filming the music video, they combed both of their aesthetics and styles to create a pop masterpiece.
Fans went crazy. They loved the return to classic pop when both singers had gone off to pursue acting careers and change their sound a bit. Many felt deprived of being able to dance to ‘Rain On Me’ in a club since going out was restricted. And you can best believe the Daggers felt the same—especially Rooster who loved to dance his ass off, “I would be tearing it up right now if Rona wasn’t such a bitch.”
Surprisingly the 2020 VMAs still happened. It was roughly six months after the outbreak and very strict regulations were in place for the show to go on. With ‘Rain On Me,’ being so popular and popstars releasing albums, Y/n and Lady Gaga were invited to perform. After prepping for weeks and self-quarantining, the daggers all gathered around at the couple’s home to watch the live show. Lady Gaga was the first to perform solely when it was their turn, then Y/n joined causing the select few in the crowd to cheer—with her friends and loved ones going crazy in their living room. All were in awe when she hit a high note, killing it with the choreography and honestly being the best performers of the night. Finally Lady Gaga left the stage with her dancers allowing Y/n’s to appear in time for the popstar to sing ‘Salute.’ At the house, Halo and Nat were dancing along and belting the lyrics with the guys while recording the performance on their phones.
“Sisters, we are everywhere! Warriors, your country needs you! If you’re ready, ladies, better keep steady, ready, aim, shoot! Don’t need ammunition, on a mission—now we hit you with the truth! Divas, queen, we don’t need no man, SALUTE!!”
2021 came with hope and breaths of fresh air. A vaccination was developed, restrictions were lifted in most locations meaning Y/n and Jake could finally plan for their wedding. It took a few months to plan, desiring an intimate private wedding at their home with their close friends and family. The daggers were all there, including Maverick, Cyclone, Warlock, and Hondo. Their families were all there as well as Y/n’s managers & agents, some cast members from the shows/films she grew close to, as well as artists like Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys, David Guetta, and The Black Eyed Peas, the Jonas Brothers, & Miley Cyrus.
A sweet ceremony, Y/n squealed when Jake tipped her back to the cheers of their loved ones as he kissed her passionately. “I love you so much, Y/n. Or should I say, Mrs. Seresin.”
“I love you too, Mr. Seresin,” she kissed him again, “Now let’s show them we’re the life of the party.”
Rings on their fingers, grins plastered their faces when they ran through the Arch of Swords the guys of the Dagger Squad set up on the aisle. Then came time for the reception. Jake presented Y/n with a sword, per military tradition, to cut the cake and Y/n poured the champagne over the tower of glasses. They had their first dance, which Javy made sure to do his best man duties and record everything.
Which came in handy when it was time for Y/n’s surprise for Jake.
Seating him in a chair at the front of the dance floor, Y/n smirked at his confused expression as she took the mic from the DJ, calling everyone's attention. “All of you know I’m one for surprises. And tonight is no exception,” biting her lip she signaled for her maid of honor, who started rounding up the bridesmaids. “I thought it would be great to give Jake a little treat tonight—do not take that the wrong way, I can already see your minds going somewhere,” she pointed at the daggers who were hollering, giggling as she continued, “Stop it. Anyways, we’ve been cooking up this little number for the past month and now it’s time to let it shine. Baby, this is for you.”
Jake slapped a hand to his mouth containing his expression of glee when the opening chords to Y/n’s ‘Power’ echoed through the speakers. Her bridesmaids got into place, the singer discarding her veil and moving to the center. Everyone was on their feet hooting and hollering, capturing the performance on their phones for memory. Javy even put the phone right up in Jake’s face, Payback slapping the pilot on the back as the others whistled and danced. Just the expression of his mother and family sent Jake into tears of laughter.
She was flabbergasted. Unlike his sister and brother who were having the time of their lives witnessing the masterpiece that was Y/n practically seducing her husband live and singer her own song.
“I don’t think she’s heard this song until now!” He shouted over the music to the phone, blushing when Y/n winked at him. To be fair, the bridge of ‘Power’ was a little on the frisky side and Y/n was edging closer to Jake until she was basically in his lap.
“Don’t be fooled, I got you wrapped up. In the arms of an animal—get you thinking that I’m all innocent. But wait ‘til I get you home. If you don’t, baby, you should know. I’m the one who’s in control.”
Hell yeah she was in control when she got home that night….well at least for a few rounds she was.
Sadness came with the announcement of her break from music. The hot topic for media outlets, Y/n had released a statement on Twitter and Instagram confirming the suspicions many had after her wedding. Fans were understandably upset that their favorite artist wouldn’t be releasing new material until further notice, but they’d rather have Y/n at her best and not give half ass energy in her work. She was burnt out. It was time for a break after 13 years with six albums, each with their own tour. Don’t get her wrong, the popstar loved to be on the road, but after a while she was ready to just stay home for some time without planning for what was next.
In the meantime she sold songs for other people, collaborated on writing with artists, and acted when filming was either in L.A or San Diego. She and Jake were happily married, little to no financial stress or personal issues, and were ready to expand their family. By mid 2025 they had/adopted two kids, two dogs, and a cat. They were a full house with no dull days whatsoever.
“Are you going to get back in the studio like you mentioned the other week?” Jake asked at dinner, helping cut his son's food into smaller pieces.
Y/n nibbled on her floor while also assisting their daughter, “Yeah I think this weekend I’m gonna call Jack up and see what his schedule is like. I got some lyrics I’d like him to read.” Sipping on her drink briefly she then asks, “How long do you think this next mission is going to be?”
“Probably a week or two. Mav is working out the details and hopes to tell us Monday. I just pray I’ll make it in time for your birthday.”
Y/n feels her heart skip, giving a soft smile, “You know I understand if you can’t, honey. If the Pentagon is tasking you then you know it’s important. We’ll celebrate either before or after you get back,” she assured, reaching over to hold his hand when he frowned.
“I just hate the idea of missing it, you know? It’s your birthday and I missed our anniversary last year,” he pauses to sigh, “I just hate leaving you guys for so long. And I never wanna make you feel like you’re always alone.”
“I knew what I was getting into when we fell in love. Don’t feel like you’re missing out or I’m going to suddenly start giving ultimatums because you know I’m not that person. If it was our anniversary or another memorable date I would still feel the same. You have a job, Jake, you’re the best there is to do it. There will be plenty more birthdays for us to be together for.”
Being back in the studio felt like a whole new world. It had been nearly five years since her last single was in late 2020. When Jake was working the kids would come with her and be the stars of the crew, playing in the mini play area they had set up while Y/n was recording. Besides the people she worked with, only Jake knew she was releasing new music. Quite literally Y/n did not announce anything until the night before with a single Tweet and Instagram post with the art cover and the caption, “Tomorrow at midnight, Between Us.”
She broke the internet to put it lightly.
@ Y/ns_microphone: WE’RE GETTING NEW MUSIC OMFG PLEASE TELL ME IT’S A WHOLE ALBUM!!
@ livinginharryshouse: y’all the High Note Princess is back I’m gonna lose it.
@ a_teenage_dream: 2025 ending on a great note 🥹 five years and the wait is over!!!!
@ dylanobrien ✔️: crying, shitting, throwing up. Thank you @ Y/n
August 2026
18 years in the music industry and the rush before a live performance had Y/n pacing backstage during the commercial break of the VMAs. Their children were being occupied by her manager while Jake helped her mentally prepare. He was going to be the one to present her the award at the end of her set, so they were just waiting for the green light from the stage manager. The performance was going to be nearly ten minutes, the longest she’s ever done live on an award show since it was going to be a medley of some of her classic hits while also including ‘Between Us’. Lady Gaga, Y/n’s close friend and who collaborated with her again on her most recent album, was going to introduce her.
“Deep breaths with me, baby,” Jake held her in his arms, kissing her forehead. “I can feel you shaking. But once you get on stage it’s gonna be like you never left.” Taking a strong inhale, Y/n let it out slowly before repeating.
“I know it probably won’t happen,” she starts to laugh, “but I can’t help but dread the idea of me falling on my ass or forgetting my lyrics.” Jake laughs with her, shaking his head while pulling away to look at her.
“Knowing you, you’d fall gracefully and make it look like it was intentional. Also you mumble those lyrics in your sleep…you won’t forget them.”
She leans more into him just as the stage manager yells, “You’re on in five, Y/n!” The commercial break must have ended. Lady Gaga was already being pulled on stage after wishing the popstar good luck with a hug and friendly kiss to the cheek. “We need you over here please.”
“That’s your cue,” Jake grins, cupping his wife’s face before bringing her in for a passionate kiss. Y/n smiles into it, nuzzling their noses together causing him to chuckle. When they pull away he says, “Go out there and have fun. Bottom line, baby, have fun out there and sing your heart out. I’m so lucky and honored to be your husband and share this life with you. Don’t start crying,” he playfully scolds when her eyes tear up, “you’ll ruin your nice makeup your team worked so hard on.” That makes her laugh. Jake kisses her again, “I love you, baby. I’ll see you at the end.”
“I love you, Jake,” she hugs him tightly, feeling comfort in the smell of his cologne. “Thank you for being by my side everyday. You’re the light of my life—,” she nods to the stage manager who was waving frantically. “Fuck okay, I wanted to be more romantic but I got to go before they drag me.”
“Go, go,” he kisses her cheek, Y/n moving quickly to kiss her children and hug her managers before waving goodbye. “We love you!!”
Running to the nearly annoyed stage manager, she throws off her robe to reveal her stage outfit and takes the microphone. Heart pounding, she adjusts her earpiece as they escort her to the spot she was needed just as Lady Gaga finished her introduction speech, “Los Angeles and to everyone watching at home, it is my honor to present to you your recipient of this year’s MTV Video Vanguard Award. Get on your feet and make some noise for the one and only, Y/n L/n!!”
It was still dark on stage where Y/n was hidden from the audience as all attention went to the giant screens all around showing the pre-recorded video montage with her face in black and white and eyes closed. The crowd was already going crazy as the camera zoomed in toward Y/n’s face while audio played of her talking about her love for music and the thrill of performing. The camera continued to pan in, the popstar on stage thinking about everything that had led her to that moment. From starting out her days singing in a jazz club, to becoming one of only 19 EGOT winners, and now the recipient of the Video Vanguard award.
The microphone went to her mouth, Y/n putting on the show of the year when the video ended with her eyes opening and voice echoing the music channel’s iconic phrase in the stadium, “I want my MTV!!”

Yelena Belova x F!R
WandaNat 🤰🏼❤️
Request: @/modedddd | 3,168 Words
Weddings—What total fucking chaos…
Warnings: Alcohol, Violence, Puking (but like soft ass, nauseating fluff)
"Wanda, are you sure the fitting went well?" You huffed involuntarily as you tried for the umpteenth time to get the zipper to reach the top of her dress, "Maybe it shrunk hon?"
Wanda turned to you with tears in her eyes, you could see a secret settled beneath the surface of her shining viridescent orbs, but her wobbling lip prevented her from offering it up.
"Oh honey," you saw the soft baby bump as her dress now pooled at her hips, "It'll be okay, what's a wedding without a few hiccups?"
——
Wanda smiled instinctually at your offered comfort, the world could be on fire, but you would still find the beauty for her somehow.
"What are we going to do?" Wanda asked in a whisper, and you tightened your hold on her.
"Well, the wedding is in six hours," you looked to your watch, "How about we run to our safe space, then we can magically fix the problem?"
Wanda pulled away from you with a genuine smirk, you always found the best solutions.
"Can I get extra toppings?" Wanda wagered, and you nodded amusedly, "Then it's a deal!"
After Wanda changed back into her comfy loungewear the both of you snuck out of her dressing room, and right on out of the venue.
—
Kate had been excited to be playing such a pivotal part in Wanda and Natasha's special day's events. The excitable girl was skipping around with her bedazzled clipboard, making sure the workers knew where to place the flower arrangements, then she was calling the caterers to triple check on the delivery time for the various plates, and she continued to do such work until she arrived to Wanda's door.
"Hey ladies it's Kate, I'm just checking in to make sure we're staying on time," she called out as she knocked softly, but there wasn't a call back. Kate tried a few more times, and with the continued silence she grew worried, so without further thought she opened the door.
The worry she felt only increased as she found the room empty, she was panicked when she saw Wanda's dress in a heap on the floor, and in that state she called Yelena on FaceTime, offering no privacy as she yelled, "They're gone, we have a runaway bride, and her bestie too."
"WE HAVE A WHAT?" Natasha shrieked, and Yelena muttered underneath her breath, "Pochemu ya?" before throwing back her flute of champagne, and turning her focus to her frazzled older sister. "It will all be okay."
(Why me?)
—
"So, is this a 'oh no she knocked me up' wedding?" You teased your best friend, you cackled as her nose scrunched up in pure offense. "No, and you very well know that!"
"Yeah, but for all the secret keeping on your end I felt it was only fair to tease you babes."
"We didn't expect it to happen so fast," Wanda muffled her admittance over a spoonful of her fro yo, "But with my magic it's apparently a sped up process. I am technically only a week in, but at last weeks scan they said I was three."
You remained unexpectedly silent as you ogled your friends bowl, it was literally towering over the lip of the bowl, and the toppings were what you'd expect to see on a sociopath's bowl.
Who pairs mango boba pearls with chocolate syrup, and pieces of coconut? A menace...
When you took notice of her glare you brought yourself back into the conversation, "Weeks?"
"Months," she groaned as she dropped her gaze to the bump that she could no longer hide, it'd become even larger since you'd left the venue.
"Yeah, I am afraid that makes sense now."
—
Natasha was pacing around her dressing room, there was no way Wanda would have cold feet.
Right? No, she loved her just as much as she did, so why the hell is she nowhere in sight?
"Sestra, calm yourself, I'll find them."
Natasha glared at her sister, "You better."
"Why would they even leave?" Kate questioned, and Yelena swiftly glared in her direction, "Y/N doesn't do things without good reason, she is her maid of honor for a reason Kate Bishop."
Yelena didn't mean to snap, but truthfully she was worried that you hypothetically helping Wanda run meant that the life she wanted with you maybe wasn't the one you wanted with her.
—
"Y/N?" Wanda hesitantly called out to you, she could see the way you were concealing your own panic to keep hers at bay, it didn't work.
"Don't," you pleaded, "We'll be there soon, it's okay, there's no need to panic Wanda, please."
Wanda rested back against the seat, she wasn't going to press you further. It wasn't your fault there was standstill traffic on the highway, how were either of you to know about a nearby basketball game taking place. Had you known you would've stayed off the freeway, especially since the next exit was two miles out, and the wedding was meant to start in two hours.
It wasn't intentional, but the two of you let time get away from you as you giddily roamed the city in search for baby items. Wanda let you peek at the baby's genders in her purse, they (Wanda) wanted a party for that, and there was really no one better to throw it than you. It wasn't until you looked over a receipt that you clocked the time, and rushed to get back.
"I'm sorry," you couldn't keep it in anymore, you were literally the worst maid of honor.
"Hey," the witch reached for your hand over the console, "You are doing everything right, I needed this, they'll understand if we're late."
The sound of a loud noise startled you both, your gazes shifting to the illuminated dash.
My Stinky Girl (Yelena Belova) is calling...
You gulped, then nodded to the witch who was hovering over the green button, "Heyyy..."
"Don't hey me, where the hell are you?" The blonde shrieked, but then she sighed, "Hi..."
"We're on the highway," you meekly answered.
"Why?"
"To get hitched in Vegas, we realized we had the wrong partners," Wanda deadpanned.
"You stay away from my girlfriend Maximoff."
The witch cackled, "Calm your vests Lena."
You could hear your girlfriend inhale, she was two seconds from a freak out. "Yelena, why don't you ask Natasha about the beans?" You instructed the irritated blonde, "We'll wait."
Yelena trusted you, so without questioning you further she turned to her sister instead. With a shy smile the redhead proceeded to spill them.
"Oh my gosh!" Yelena was grinning, you could hear it, your heart swelled at her excitement, "Detka, we're going to be such cool aunties!"
"Yeah, we are," you chuckled, sharing a fond look with your best friend as the two of you piggybacked off your lover's excitement, and you envisioned a future where you were more.
"How long until you're back? We can stall."
"I am not sure, it's a twenty minute drive, but the traffic is at a standstill, so probably hours."
"Why don't you just mind warp the people to drive faster Wanda?" Kate asked, and you could hear a slap followed up by a shriek.
"Yelena, be nice!" You reprimanded her, and bit back a laugh when she grumbled curses.
"You know how I feel about stupid solutions."
"Actually," you looked at Wanda, and she nodded, there was no harm done if you got traffic to cease to exist right? "We're doing it."
"Wait!" Yelena shouted, "I have a better idea!"
Wanda looked to you fearfully, and it checked out because not even a moment later were you both upchucking the fro yo onto the ground.
"How was that better Lena?" You looked at your lover who was quickly approaching you, she shrugged, "It seemed like a good idea."
Pietro smirked at you as he held his sisters hair back, "It was so fun, pretending to have super strength as I ran you here to save the day."
"Yeah, your noodle arms could never have done that without my help," Wanda grumbled, shoving her brother away, and nuzzling into her wife to be's arms instead, "Hi lovebug..."
Natasha's cheeks turned crimson, Wanda's delirious muttering of her 'behind closed doors' nickname had her feeling put on the spot, but she also knew she meant no harm, so she softly kissed her temple, "Welcome back detka."
"We have a wedding to get to," Kate reminded everyone, and you looked to Wanda knowingly.
"Go, we've got this," you ushered everyone off, then with a reserved softness you reached for Wanda and worked a smattering of miracles.
—
The ceremony went off without any further hitches, it wasn't until the reception that things got interesting again. You watched with rapt attention as a drunken Pietro approached girl after girl with no luck, it was very amusing.
"What's so funny?" Yelena asked, the deepened rasp in her tone enough to tell you she'd been drinking; Pietro was probably her doing.
"Pietro has no game," you mused, tipping your nearly empty glass in his direction, Yelena burst into laughter once she saw him pouting, "Oh my gosh, he looks like a wounded puppy, how funny." You snorted at your girlfriend's odd sense of humor, "Yeah, his pride is gone."
"Welp, sucks for him," Yelena shrugs, then turns to you with a smug grin, "Care to dance?" Yelena reached her hand out for yours, and you graciously accepted it as she pulled you from the table to the dance floor with the couple.
"You look absolutely gorgeous malysh," Yelena whispered before softly kissing your lips, she swiftly spun you out before you could reply, then she pulled your giggling form right back in, and you smiled at her. "As do you Lena."
The blonde smiled even wider, her cheeks tinting a subtle pink, something you wanted to tease her for, but you knew better than to ruin the sweet moment. After a few songs, where the both of you swayed around in your little bubble of love unbothered, a hand softly tugged you away from your lover. Natasha smiled at you, with her hand extended, and the two of you reluctantly exchanged partners.
"You're my favorite person," the redhead said almost as soon as she had you in her arms, "Natasha, I'm flattered, but I'm with Yelena, at your wedding mind you, have some class."
"Why must you ruin the moment?" She groaned, and you chuckled softly, "I'm your favorite, so really I can do whatever I wish."
"That you can," Natasha conceded, a soft smile overtook both your faces as you danced about.
The conversation between Yelena and Wanda was a smidge different. Yelena held her sister in law protectively as they barely even moved.
"You know, I'm not made of fluff Yelena," the witch teased, and the blonde huffed seriously, "You are carrying my future nieces or nephews, sue me for wanting to keep them safe."
Wanda gripped her by the shoulders, "Cute."
"Wanda Maximoff, I am not cute."
"Romanoff," she quickly corrected, the lovesick smile she wore nearly made your girlfriend gag.
"Now, before the song ends we must discuss important business," Wanda's face was now one of stoicism, "When are you proposing?"
Yelena grunted, "That's a personal question."
"Mhm, you're officially my sister now, and I am patiently waiting for you to make Y/N mine."
Yelena ignored her sister in law for a moment, she found herself staring at you from across the room, no matter the occasion her eyes always drifted to you, it was a reflex at this point. Her sister dipped you backwards, then repeatedly spun you so fast you couldn't stop laughing.
"See," Wanda called her out, following her gaze to be met with the sight of you, the smile the blonde wore was far too soft for Yelena's usual cold appearances, "You need to lock her in."
"She is already locked in," Yelena huffed, but she couldn't help but agree, "But I know, you are right, is that what you wanted to hear?"
Wanda smirked smugly instead of responding, and after a moment of awkward silence she released herself from the blondes strong hold.
"Don't worry Belova, I got your back," she winked as she walked away, then she tapped your shoulder to signal it was time to switch back, you smiled at her, a hand affectionately grazed over her bump, and Yelena found the sight to be a perfect glimpse into the future.
Her perfect little family, one she never thought possible, coming to fruition before her eyes. It nearly brought her to tears thinking about your hand on Wanda's belly as her own on yours.
When you caught the bouquet a few hours later Yelena saw the intentional wisps of red that floated it to your hold. She glared at the witch who wore a content smile, but it faded quickly as you jumped into her unsuspecting arms. Your body shook with excitement, and the blonde held you that much closer when she understood you wanted it all just as bad.
Yelena set you down, and instantly cupped your cheeks, pulling you in for a kiss that said more than her words ever could. When she finally pulled away your eyes were glossy, she frowned, but you waved her off, "Happy tears."
She nodded in vague understanding, "Why?"
"Because, even if you are not there yet, I am," you smiled at her while nervously flitting the flowers around, "This bouquet toss helped me feel stronger in my convictions that you're it for me baby, there's no love story greater. So, if and when you're ready, I'll be there to say yes."
"I'm ready," she interrupted your monologue, her tone was neutral, likely due to her nerves, but you saw a smile steadily creeping up.
"I'm more ready!"
Yelena frowned, and you nearly lost your shit when you turned to see Pietro down on one knee with a ring that resembled Wanda's.
"Oh, you poor, drunk fool," you sympathized, and leaned into your girlfriend as he went on.
"I am a good man," he hiccuped softly, his hand flying up to cover his mouth, and to your fortune it was a false alarm, "I can make you the happiest women ever Y/N, will you—."
Yelena was about to attack the man, but in a twist of fate it was Wanda who got him first. The witch lifted him into the air, not a care in the world as he gasped for no apparent reason.
"Give me my ring pridurok, or you'll be sleeping with the sharks in the Atlantic."
(Dipshit)
"Sestra, please, you just had your big day," he whined drunkenly, "Just let me have mine!"
Yelena approached the man, she scooped the ring from his hand, and gently passed it back. Then she nodded to Wanda, and in a show of impressive strength she caught the man by his collar as he fell from the air, and slammed him into a marble pillar, "Ostorozhneye, Pietro, ya znayu, gde ty spish', a ukus vdovy smertelen."
(Careful now Pietro, I know where you sleep, and a widows bite is deadly.)
As soon as her hands left the mans collar he was running for the nearest trash can. Yelena turned to you with a smug grin, she knew you were in a state of shock at her show of power. With her arms wide open you crashed right into her, your embarrassing words being muffled into her suit jacket, "That was hot."
Yelena snorted at your admission, and in a rare moment of PDA she kissed you tenderly. She never denied you her affections, but ones like this kiss were usually reserved for the house. But you reckon she didn't mind tonight since it was just a small group of close friends here.
"YA tebya lyublyu," Yelena confessed for the millionth tome with her forehead pressed up to yours. "Ya tozhe tebya lyublyu vonyayet."
(I love you / I love you too Stink)
"One time Y/N," she groans, "I come home smelling like a sewer one time after a mission and you don't let me move on, I want peace."
"Yeah, and that was one time too many."
"Can we go home now?" Yelena was over the scene, at this point she just wanted to cuddle up to you, with her puppy, Fanny, and your kitty, Gerald, sleeping soundly at your feet.
"Yeah, let me just grab my co—."
Natasha rushed over to you before you could even ask where the fire was, "Her water broke."
Yelena glared at her, "Ne nasha problema."
(Not our problem)
Both women went to grab you, likely to hold you in a standstill, but fortunately the witch with fluctuating hormones had the upper hand as she yanked you towards her, "They can have their petty little fight, while we go have babies."
"Hold on," you pulled the woman over to the bar, and grabbed two shot glasses. "Y/N..."
"Hush," you waved her off, "Close your eyes."
Wanda rolled them first, making sure you saw, but then she complied. "You can open now."
Stood before her were two shot glasses, both with a clear liquid in them, and she smirked. She wasn't sure where you got the droppers from, but in the dimly lit room she couldn't tell what was in them, so when you dropped a bit of blue curaçao into the first one she beamed.
"It's a boy!" You cheered, and you saw Natasha briefly look to you with her eyes alit with joy before she was back to shouting at her sister.
Wanda winced as another contraction hit, and you made quick work of the next shot, you had three droppers for the sake of surprise, and it sure helped to keep Wanda unclear until the next liquid turned a light pink, "It's a girl!"
Wanda smiled at you, it was pained though, you could see how she clutched her stomach, so you rushed around to her to guide her to the car, and as you retreated you shouted back, "Oy! Assholes, come take these shots, then get in the car and take us to the damn hospital!"
Love is beautiful, it might be a chaotic, messy experience, hell, even at times tragic, but even with that chance, it's beautiful nonetheless. It was all you ever wanted, and with this family of found individuals it seems you finally have it. That was never really a question for you honestly, but it was confirmed tonight as you looked into the fresh eyes of your goddaughter.
The brunette's tiny fingers were wrapped tight around your girlfriends, she was cooing softly at the baby in your arms, you felt your heart ache for this sort of future. When your gazes eventually met, and your lover smiled at you softly, with those bright, albeit tired hazel eyes you knew this was forever. You'd done it.
Yelena was your dream come true.

1000 Follower Celebration!
I'm blown away, honestly. The last time I had any notoriety in a fandom was back in, like 2007 or 2008 when I was on the Dibbuns Against Bedtime fan forums for Redwall. I was made the head of my dorm as the site started dying because I was the most active member in said dorm.
But you all? You're here because you like something I'm making? It's so wild to me. I appreciate every single one of you. Every like, every reblog, every comment. They warm me up.
I've been thinking over the last few days what I want to do. The obvious answers—prompt fills, polls to determine what I write, story snippets—I do all that with too much regularity. And I'm trying to avoid taking on more fics as I focus on the ones I've already got going.
So we're gonna do something a bit different this week.
Over the next week (From Wed 2/21 to Wed 2/28) send me the title of one of my WIPs (listed below) and I will respond with a few paragraphs. Not my usual 1.2-1.6k that I like to do for WIP Wednesday, but a few paragraphs. At the end of the week, I'll compile them all and post everything in a single post.
I won't be adding all the links like I usually do with each addition to a story until I post that final draft, but I'll tag everything with "[story name] 1000" so you can click that and follow along with the fic in some sort of order.
There are six WIPs eligible for the game! Please limit yourself to one fic per ask, but you may send in multiple asks. I will request that, for now, you limit yourself to one request per fic (aka a max of 6 requests per person). If I find that I'm able to keep up, I may waive that request in the upcoming days. But it will depend on how busy my inbox (and life) get.
Bring Me Home
Ghost!Robin
Answer My Call
I'll Carry Your Heart (Until I Find You Again)
Want to Hold On and Feel I Belong/Bad Reveal AU
Empathy!Verse
I totally forgot about the Empathy!Verse when I did my last ask game. Mostly because that has been entirely written on Tumblr and I...kinda forgot to transfer it to a Scrivener document. Ooops. 😅
Something to Feel isn't on this list because I want to dedicate my time to it today. I'm close to the end, I think, and already have one ask in my inbox about it that I totally meant to get to before now (if it's your ask, I promise I haven't forgotten you!).
Brief Story Summaries
Bring Me Home: Tim and Danny are online friends and know each other's secrets. Currently in the arc where the Young Justice and Team Phantom help Danny escape after a reveal gone wrong.
Ghost!Robin: Jason is haunted by the ghost of the Robin he used to be. Danny finds out when Jazz introduces him to Jason over a meet-the-in-laws dinner. Currently, Jason and Robin are meeting with Frostbite to learn what may have happened.
Answer My Call: Jazz is sending texts to Danny after he escaped a GIW facility and they can't talk. But it turns out Jason is the one who's actually been getting them.
Carry Your Heart: Jason and Danny meet in the Ghost Zone while Jason is dead. They become friends. But Jason runs to Desiree to wish for his life back. A wish she fulfills. Danny goes to visit him, only to find his core left behind in a lair that's in ruin.
Bad Reveal AU: Danny is living with the Waynes when he finds out they're also the Bats. He freaks out because he believes the bats are working with the government (aka the GIW). So he shoots Bruce and runs away. The bats are now trying to convince him it's safe to come home.
Empathy!Verse: Liminal!Jazz is studying in Gotham and feeling the lack of other liminals to interact with. After getting used to the undercurrent of emotion that follows all interactions with ghosts/liminals, humans just feel...flat. Then one day, she literally runs into another liminal as she's going to the library. Jason Todd. Only... he doesn't know what it means to be liminal. So Jazz is there to show him.

Hello, my friends!!! @jelo-boi and I have been cooking the past few days working on our MCSM Enchanted AU (AKA Minecraft: Enchanted Mode), a re-telling of the 2007 Disney movie Enchanted but with the funny blocks.
Putting a cut here because this is a bit long 🫶
Characters:
Jesse as Giselle
Lukas as Robert
Petra as Edward
F!Jesse (Jessica) as Nancy
Ivor as Nathaniel
Reuben as Pip
Romeo as Narissa (the disguise he uses is Vos)
Nell as Morgan
Olivia as Sam (the secretary)
Axel as Arty (the construction worker)
Isa as Robert’s boss
Milo as the other divorce lawyer
Jack as the guy singing in the park
Nurm as Clara (the old woman on the bus)
Cassie Rose as the bus driver
Ellegaard and Magnus as Phoebe and Ethan (the couple getting a divorce)
Summary:
Things start out in the fairytale land of Beaconlasia, where Jesse lives in a house in the woods until she’s saved from the Prismarine Colossus by Princess Petra and the two are to be married.
However, Petra’s stepfather King Romeo doesn’t want to give up the crown (he’s been trying to keep Petra from meeting a boy) and he disguises himself as an old man, tricking Jesse and pushing him down a well.
At this point, Jesse ends up in the middle of Manhattan. He wanders around the city, lost, until he quite literally falls into the arms of a divorce lawyer named Lukas and his younger sister Nell, and he goes to stay with them.
Meanwhile, Petra and Jesse’s pig friend Reuben venture to the real world to find her, and shortly after, Petra’s valet and Romeo’s servant, Ivor, goes through to try and stop her from finding him.
Lukas is engaged to a woman named Jessica, but shenanigans happen and he winds up falling in love with Jesse, and Jesse winds up falling in love with him as well. Ivor tries to poison Jesse a few times, and then eventually Petra finds him.
Except Jesse doesn’t want to go back because he loves Lukas and he likes being around Nell, but he agrees to return to Beaconlasia after going on a date with Petra.
They wind up going to a ball and Jesse dances with Lukas while Petra dances with Jessica, and then when it’s over, Petra and Jesse go to leave, but Romeo shows up disguised as the old man again and poisons Jesse with an apple. Petra finds out and tries to give him true love’s kiss, but it doesn’t work, so he has Lukas kiss him and he wakes up. Then Romeo turns into a dragon and captures Lukas, but Jesse saves him and Romeo falls off of the building and dies.
Jesse and Lukas have their happy ending while Jessica goes back to Beaconlasia with Petra and they get married, and Ivor writes a book and Reuben also writes a book and they all live happily ever after.
Important Details:
—> In the animated bits in Beaconlasia, they are Minecraft blocks.
—> Nell is Lukas’ younger sister, not his daughter. She’s still six, but with some of the mannerisms and attitude that Nell has.
—> Jesse cuts Lukas’ curtains to make his clothes—the suspenders are the patterned bits.
—> Instead of the running gag of Giselle’s wedding dress getting stuck in everything, it’s that Jesse’s suspenders keep getting caught on stuff.
—> Aiden is Lukas’ ex who left, causing him to have a sort of sour view on love (Aiden is also Malvina from Disenchanted. More on this later.)
—> Jesse and Jessica are long-lost siblings. Back when they were still babies, Jesse was more of a stubborn, adventurous type prone to wandering, while Jessica was a bit less stubborn and more reserved. Their mother was strolling them through Times Square on the same day maintenance work was also being done on the sewer, particularly the manhole that leads to Beaconlasia. When the stroller was just in place while their mother wasn't paying attention, Jesse crawled out while people were crossing the road. He got lost in the crowd, and eventually crawled all his way to the manhole and ended up stranded in Beaconlasia. Baby Jesse first wound up in the entrance to the wishing well inside the castle walls, but some parts of the walls had cracks that were big enough for him to crawl through. Eventually, he kept going on and kept roaming until he reached the forest, and there, the animals found him and took him in as their own. Ever since that day, Jessica grieved the loss of her brother, and as years went by, she wound up hiding those feelings inside her. Then, when she meets Jesse for the first time with Lukas at his apartment, she's initially jealous-angry at Lukas, but when she rides the taxi, she realizes how Jesse looks eerily similar to her, and she's like, “It can't be him, can it? It was so long ago. That's impossible.” After that, Jessica is less bothered by the notion of Lukas cheating on her and moreso by the notion that the person Lukas was with may be her long-lost twin. When she calls Lukas after receiving the flowers post-That’s How You Know, Jessica also asks for Jesse to come along with him to her workplace. Right after the scene where Jessica is awed by the flowers and thanks Lukas for the ball invitation in person, she calls for Jesse to have a talk with her. They have a heart-to-heart talk about how Jesse may have been separated from them since they were babies, and both confirm that he really is Jessica’s sister. Then they hug and they both cry and comfort each other as they realize they’re both family.
—> Dewey was one of Jesse’s friends back in Beaconlasia and he comes to the real world with Petra and Reuben, finds them while they’re at the park, and then stays with them when Reuben goes back to Beaconlasia
Relationships:
Green Suspenders Jesse and Lukas
They meet when Jesse falls off of a billboard and Lukas brings him back to his and Nell’s apartment to stay the night. After some initial misunderstandings with Lukas’ fiancée and coworkers, he begins to truly care about Jesse, and Jesse grows reluctant to return to his own world after realizing his feelings for Lukas.
Female Jesse and Petra
Jessica falls for Petra while they’re at the ball. Taken by surprise by Petra’s completely straightforward and earnest nature, she’s swept off her feet after Lukas falls for Jesse. The two return to Beaconlasia together and get married.
Ivor and Romeo
Ivor is entirely devoted to serving Romeo, but Romeo couldn’t care less about him. Once Ivor realizes this, he turns on him and helps Petra and Jesse defeat him.
Magnus and Ellegaard
A couple who were going to get divorced before Jesse stumbled into things and re-ignited their spark.
If you’ve never seen this movie, PLEASE check it (and the sequel) out! They’re both so good!!
EDIT!! Check the reblogs for Jelo’s half of the post :D

Baby It's Christmas
Summary: Natasha gets to spend the holidays with your family
Warnings: Pregnancy, pregnant sex, amab nat, breeding kink
A/N: I am pushing the hopeless romantic!nat agenda and you all get to suffer through it !!! Kinda sad this event is over, but I'm excited to start writing for the new year!!
Event Masterlist
❃❃❃❃❃❃❃❃
Deep down, Natasha was hopelessly romantic. She loved being in love. The butterflies in her stomach, tender touches, and the intimacy that is given to otherwise insignificant things. The only thing loved more than that was being in love with you. Love was great, but love with you was amazing. It was like an addict. Every day, Natasha found herself wanting more of you. Just being a teammate wasn't enough, so she became your friend. When "friend" wasn't enough, she became your girlfriend. Then once "girlfriend" didn't satisfy her, she became your fiance. One day, "fiance" wouldn't be enough either and she'd become your wife.
If she had to be honest, "fiance" was losing its appeal already. Natasha wanted a family. She was already a third of the way there. You were in your first trimester of pregnancy and all the wedding planning was over, but six months until the baby came and six more until the wedding was a dreadfully long time. Natasha wanted to just wake up one morning and have everything be perfect. She wanted to make breakfast, coddle you and the baby, and spend a whole day with nothing looming over her head. No mission reports, no world-ending threats, just her and the family she finally craved.
Without the baby, you were in the direct line of sight for all of Natasha's spoiling and overprotectiveness. She arranged for you to leave the Avengers early and effectively trapped you in the house. You couldn't exactly complain either. The compound wasn't always the safest place for you and Natasha had literally thrown up just thinking about you going on a mission while pregnant.
"Tasha, is all this necessary?" You sat with your arms crossed at the dinner table as your fiance frantically moved to put plate after plate on the table. If anyone had come in, they would have thought you were cooking for a small family of four. They'd be dead wrong. All four plates on the table and both glasses were just for you. "Baby, I can't eat all of this by myself. This is crazy."
Natasha shook her head. "You don't have to eat it all, but this will keep you and our baby strong." She pulled up a chair and began feeding you. Your wife had already learned everything there was to learn about being pregnant. The day after you got your results back she spent hours researching. Ever since she's kept you on the healthiest diet you ever had. "I'll eat it with you and we'll give the leftovers to the team."
"Baby, you're overreacting! One normal meal won't kill me." You opened your mouth and ate. Natasha was a wonderful cook, but no amount of skill could change the fact you were tired of having salmon every other meal. After a few bites, you had to cover your mouth for a chance to speak. "I think this whole pregnancy thing is stressing you out, why don't we spend the holidays with my family?"
"How about we do literally anything else?" Natasha nervously chewed on a piece of the breakfast bagel she made for you. "I mean, we always do Christmas at Tony's house. It's too last minute to break that tradition." Despite spending years of her life training to lie, Natasha found it impossible to lie to you. There was never a reason to keep a secret from you, but that knowing look certainly didn't make it easier. "Okay, fine! I'm scared of your dad!"
You frowned. "Is he threatening you again? I thought you two were getting along." There was no denying your father was a bit overprotective. You had lost count of how many partners he sent running because of how scary he looked. Natasha loved you too much to be swayed by empty threats. Your dad admired that, but that just meant he had to start filling his threats. "What about that hunting trip, did that not actually work?"
A heavy sigh came out of Natasha's mouth. "No, it went great. I just sorta promised that we'd save the baby for after the wedding and we didn't do that." She slumped down in her chair. "He's gonna take me outside and put me down like a dog! I'm done for."
You swallowed your food and laughed. "Oh please! My families more of a matriarch, just hope my mom likes the ring you bought me and you'll be fine." You pat your fiance on the leg as if she were an upset dog. "You need to relax a little and you'll have time to do that with at least eight other people looking after me."

In a way, you were right. There was technically no need for Natasha to fuss over you as much as she was. She didn't relax like she was supposed to. Natasha instead chose to mingle with your family and spoil you alongside them. You could barely take two steps without being guided to another seat or handed another plate of food. The only thing you were allowed to do was make arts and crafts with the kids, which was surprisingly enjoyable.
You were suddenly thankful you let Natasha talk you into renting a hotel for the trip. You flopped down on the bed and nuzzled into the crisp pillows. "Noo, I'm mad at you," You groaned and gently pushed Natasha away. Despite that, your fiance rolled you on your back and began kissing up your neck. "Nope, no kisses for fiance abandoners!"
Natasha had already made up her mind for the evening, but she could play along with your game. "Whaat, I didn't abandon you! I just thought you looked cuter sitting with the kids and coloring than you did having boring conversations." She placed gentle kisses down the side of your neck and squeezed your hips. "Plus, I came back for you. Isn't that what matters most?" Her hands slid down your body and tugged off your shorts.
A soft whimper had given away your true feelings before you could even say a word. "Oh, you're awful." Your breathing began to tremble. Being empty was starting to become unbearable, but Natasha always liked to play with her food. Her fingers circled your hole and rubbed your clit as gently as possible. "Nat, please don't be like that."
Your fiance merely hummed before slipping two of her fingers inside of you. Natasha basked in the vulgar sounds coming from your pussy. Pregnancy had made you incomprehensibly wet and Natasha found herself loving the mess that came with it. "God, I might keep you pregnant forever if it means you'll be this wet." Her fingers practically assaulted your g spot while her tongue lapped at your clit. The feeling of your walls clenching around her fingers was addictive. "Doesn't that sound nice? You can lay around and be my little breeding toy."
A deep moan fell from your mouth. "Ah, don't say that!" Your thighs clamped around her hand. "Fuck, you're so mean!" The first orgasm rushed over you unexpectedly. You had always assumed the arousal was a hormone thing, not an unchecked fetish. Your hips couldn't stop grinding against Natasha's hand.
Natasha dragged out your orgasm as long as she possibly could. Her hands were practically soaked in your cum. "I think that was pretty nice of me, but I can show you mean." The smirk on her face showed she was serious. She pulled down her pants and boxers. Natasha was fully erect and dripping with precum. "I'm not going easy on you," She whispered before planting a soft kiss on your cheek.
"Ooh, how rough could you possibly be with your pregnant spouse?" You turned your head to give Natasha a proper kiss. "God, fuck you're so big!" Natasha was unforgiving in the pace she set for you. She filled you up to the brim with her dick. Nothing would ever get you used to the feeling of being stretched out. You were nothing but a fleshlight and a cum dump. "I — ah!"
Her hips met yours with care. "That's right, you're a good breeding toy." Natasha held your legs up, allowing herself to go deeper inside you. Your wetness coated her thighs and spilled onto the bed. "God, you're so messy. My messy little toy." Her groans turned to grunts as she began rutting inside of you. "You're gonna drain me!"
You hopelessly clawed at Natasha's back. "Fuck, that's so good! Please fill me up, please!" Your ankles locked behind her back and forced her inside of you as she came. You whined when Natasha began pulling out. "If it leaks out, you're cleaning it."

hi, i have a prompt for ironstrange, maybe its a royal AU and the day of their arranged marriage? stephen is the king while tony will be the prince. stephen was initially pissed at the thought of arranged marriage until he sees tony, his supposed husband! thank you!
This is sort of half arranged marriage and half marriage of convenience, but I hope it suits!
-
Waiting at the head of the aisle, this priest positioned solemnly next to him, Stephen forces himself to look calmly and neutrally down the length of the hall towards the door that will admit his soon-to-be husband. The neutral part is damned difficult, but he manages it, because this travesty isn’t Prince Stark’s fault and he doesn’t deserve to be left wondering if he’s marrying a tyrant.
After more than forty years and succeeding his father, Stephen had allowed himself to believe that he’d avoided a political marriage. He was the King, surely it was his decision. He’d even allowed himself a quiet romance, almost a year of evenings with a foreign royal who had, by his own admission, been dodging marriage pressure of his own.
But both of them had found the limits of their freedom in the end.
Tony had missed one of their meetings almost six weeks ago, and hadn’t returned since. Stephen was certain he wouldn’t have vanished of his own accord, which meant that his family had finally tracked him down.
As for Stephen, it turned out that being King doesn’t help much when your entire council is maneuvering against you. Ultimately, marriage had been his only way out of the corner they backed him into.
So he swallows his anger, and his heartache, as the door at the end of the aisle swings open.
Only decades of diplomatic training keep his jaw from literally dropping.
It’s Tony.
Their gazes meet and Stephen can see his own emotions mirrored in Tony’s eyes: disbelief chases off resignation and is displaced in turn by a slowly dawning excitement.
By the time Tony arrives at Stephen’s side, both of them are beaming.
“Fancy meeting you here,” Stephen murmurs, too low for anyone by Tony and the priest to hear.
Tony grins. “We should have been freer with our names. Might have saved us a lot of angst.”
“Not a mistake I imagine we’ll have to worry about repeating,” Stephen says dryly, and Tony laughs. It’s not entirely proper for a wedding ceremony.
Stephen loves it.
