Chapter 9 of Long Lost and Left Wanting Posted!

It's me, I'm the problem, it's me... hi lovelies, hello, I'm back! Chapter 9 of Long Lost and Left Wanting is finally up!

Sorry for the LONG delay between updates, I've been very sick and have been dealing with a family health emergency as well over the past few months. Thanks for your love and sticking with this story! Love Must Clean House has not been abandoned by the way, I've just been struggling with how to begin what I see as basically part 2 of the story. More soon xx

"Oh, Mam, by the way, I’ve been meaning to ask, what’s the special ingredient in your cocoa - “ And Hope can’t take it anymore. “ Remus John, it’s cinnamon, which you should know by now, and you’re supposed to make it on the stovetop but given your history with the stove - “ she clucks her tongue and Remus flushes. “Mam, that was years ago!” “But what is it with all these questions! About recipes and children’s toys! Are you… are you trying to tell us I should start knitting baby clothes?” Silence descends over the line. Remus stares at her, slack jawed, as Lyall lets out a sigh and puts his head in hands. “Hopie…” he mutters. “What?!” She turns to him, mutinous.“You can’t tell me our son has ever had an interest in cooking!” “Well, no, but - ” “Mam, no, god, jesu mawr, it’s not - “ Remus was bright red, avoiding their eyes. Hope stared him down. “Coc y gath… it’s… you know Dorcas’ partner, Marlene? She has this new coworker that we’ve all become friends with who has kids. Well, they’re not his kids, really, one’s his little brother and the other’s his godson, but he’s basically all on his own and we just want to help out - ” Hope wasn’t sure this negated her grandkid theory. Not with the way her son was rambling with such a fond gleam in his eyes. “And he’s just a friend?” she probed.

It's my OCs' first birthday today, yippie!! They're enjoying their birthday with some tiny company and a horribly baked cake. But it's the thought that counts!

These are Pai, Aurelio, and Lizzie. They are a couple and run a diner together in the low suburbs of Halcandra. Their shop also serves as a safe space and shelter for other Star Borns just like them.

They also tend to take in the more little ones of their kind, soon after they've first formed. They look after them and teach them stuff, before letting them go to live independently. But they're always welcome back in their house! Be it for shelter, or a nice cup of coffee.

More about them under the cut. Be warned it gets kinda long.

Pai's ability is Cook. When he was little, he used to use his ability to make food to share with his whole neighborhood as a way of uniting everyone.

Since then he's been steadily building towards a goal, to open his very own Diner. He wanted to create a space for his community to thrive in, though he was severely disadvantaged in such a large city.

He's not one to give up and he always looks on the positive side of things. He tends to spoil the kids they look after with treats, and has a hard time saying no, so he often takes on more than he can handle.

He is the one that looks after the well-being of the kids, and generally, things that require a bit more... Tact. He looks after them when they're sick or injured, which is how he ends up meeting future GSA founders Arthur, Erebus, and Anansi.

Aurelio grew up in a scrapyard with 6 others of their kind, being kept there as guard dogs for the paranoid old man who owned the place. They were encouraged to fight each other for fun, which is how they got the scar across their face.

When they got too big and troublesome, most of them were kicked out of their home and left to fend for themselves.

Aurelio's Spear ability eventually landed them a job as a Knight for Halcandra's elites, where they worked alongside a few of their friends. Their job was to guard the meeting room and defend their assignment from threats.

A few years into this job, they and other soldiers were given a mission. A pair of dragons were nesting at the bottom of the Haldera Volcano, they had to get them out. Dragons are calm if not provoked, so relocation shouldn't be difficult...

As it turns out, the dragons were a mated pair. A male and a female, and they were viciously protecting their egg clutch.

In the battle against the dragons, Aurelio was injured and burned by fire, but their natural fire immunity allowed them to be one of the few survivors. Nevertheless, the Knights were successful in their mission and managed to drive the dragons out.

The 4 eggs that weren't crushed during the battle were passed off to the Ancients for research. They became the Guardian Angel Landia later on.

She was forced to retire from Knighthood at age 31. Due to the lasting effects of their injuries, Aurelio is the one who spends most of the time with the children. For better and for worse.

Because of their childhood, they have very skewed ideas of how to treat children. She'll often put them in dangerous situations unintentionally since she has no frame of reference to tell her that taking kids out to the Gator Pond isn't a very good idea.

Aurelio teaches the rougher life lessons. They've been through quite a bit, so they want the kids to learn how to defend themselves, and to be careful and not have others take advantage of them.

She does most of the disciplining and the one that gives timeouts and other such punishments. She is of the opinion that sometimes rough love is necessary to set someone straight. She's calm and loving, but a bit stuck in the old way of doing things.

Lizzie, real name Angeliz, is a 2-time college dropout who grew up upper class despite her species' disadvantage. She never had many friends growing up, since other kids didn't really like her, and resigned herself to being what her parents wanted her to be.

She tried to study medicine but quit after 2 years. Not wanting to further disappoint her parents, she went into law. Which she also hated but tried to commit to finishing despite how miserable it made her.

Meeting Pai and Aurelio helped her get through the year, but after Aurelio was injured, she quit law and started living with them. She helped Pai balance his business with taking care of Aurelio and eventually used some of the money she still had left to give Pai's Diner the little push forward it needed.

Despite the many etiquette classes she took as a child, Lizzie completely lacks social skills. She's a total disaster, especially when talking to someone she likes. Once she gets comfortable, her true personality starts to shine through.

She's a huge slob and kind of vulgar despite her cute appearance. She's easily angered and does not like to be teased, which makes putting up with bratty kids more difficult for her.

She tends to treat kids as little adults instead, which causes her to not be very mindful of their sensitivities. Even when in a good mood, trying to do her best, she always ends up saying the wrong thing and makes everything worse.

She handles the business aspect of their Diner, crunching numbers and reading over legal documents. She's really smart and knowledgeable, so she's the one who tends to teach kids reading, writing, and math.

Her ability is Bubble. She never used to like it, it was silly and useless to her, so she kept it hidden for years. After meeting her partners and becoming happy, she's started blowing bubbles more frequently. The kids love them.

co-high kings galadriel & celeborn

since elrond doesn't want the kingship, galadriel & celeborn are the eldest in middle-earth of the lines of Olwe and Elmo respectively. olwe is older but hes the king of the teleri not specifically doriath sindar so there might be some dispute between which line the sindarin high kingship jumps to, but they very conveniently happen to already be married and so can skip all that and just be twice the headache for sauron

Chapter 8 of Long Lost and Left Wanting is finally up!

CW: pure smut (we'll be back to our regularly scheduled content next chapter, check the chapter notes for more)

Remus pulls Sirius down and flips them over so Sirius is once again spread about beneath him, kissing him ferociously, groaning at the thought of Sirius tasting himself on Remus’ tongue. Hazy time passes with nothing more than the addicting push and pull of Sirius’ lips, his clever tongue, as Remus maps out the body he loves so well, until he feels Sirius’ breath hitch, a sure sign he’s ready to continue. “Desperate for it already, darling?” Remus trails his fingers down Sirius’ stomach, not yet touching. Sirius tilts his eyes downwards and bites his lips, a flush rising in his teeth. Embarrassed. Not yet in the place where he can let all his shame go. “Hey,” Remus catches his bottom lip gently. “Do you know how beautiful you are like this?” Sirius’ flush deepens and Remus can feel him squirm slightly. “Rem - “ “I - getting to take care of you like this - it means the world to me. “You,” Remus continues, brushing a kiss on the tip of Sirius’ nose; his jawline; that sensitive spot in the crook of his neck Remus loves to ravish; “are my greatest wish.” Sirius’ eyes glisten a little as he strokes Remus’ cheek. “Tu es mon miracle,” he murmurs, kissing Remus gently.

I had a nice talk with @teriiblog about my aokabu being married fic, and although we got kabu's hand placement wrong in our excitement, it still got me thinking: what if, after aokabu got married, kabu changed his battle pose by laying his left hand (with his wedding ring on!) over his heart, instead of his right one (which showed the galar league symbol on his glove)? It could become a way for kabu to show his devotion for larry, even if they could still live in their respective regions after tying the knot? 😭💖

Kabu could keep this very same battle pose, just that he'll exchange his right hand over his left one! 🥺🥺🥺 the galar league might not mind it too, especially if this change in kabu's pose takes place in leon's leadership! 💗
