Missing the happy hormone | S.R.
Pairing: Spencer Reid x fem!reader
Content warning: emotional reader, period mention, fluff
Word Count: 1.8K
Summary: Apparently Spencer Reid could make anything better - even the emotional disaster of being on your period
A/N: First, huge thank you to the cutie that sent in this request, you literally caught me while on my period so this was born. Also, hereâs to my inability to write short fics, this is your only warning that i can make and will make anything long, lol. Also, my titles suck omg. And shoutout to my crazy bestie for making me a Mamma Mia girly, she rocks.
But also, happy one month to this blog! When I carved out this little space for myself a month ago I wasnât really sure how Iâd feel being back here and writing again, but so far itâs been a treat. A huge thank you for all of your support and love and thank you to my mutuals and everyone that interacted with my blog. đ Hereâs to many more months to come!
Request: spencer x fem!reader on her period/ovulating and shes in tears all the time?? Im ovulating and have been crying for hours and keep calling my mom lmaoo heâd been so lovely and sweet I know it I can feel it in my bones
masterlist
It was a slow day at the BAU. The most exciting thing in the 6 hours Spencer had spent at work was Rossiâs invitation to dinner the following weekend.Â
Paperwork had piled high after their last 2 cases, so every team member was hunched over their desk, writing and revising reports. It was a never-ending cycle - finish a report, close the file, open a new one, and start all over again.
His eyes had started getting tired after four and a half hours, his hand had started cramping and he was down two pens so far, yet there was still a prominent pile on his desk.
He suspected Morgan and Emily might have pushed a file or two from theirs onto his load, seeing as he was getting done the fastest. Regardless, every few hours JJ was bringing even more to pile on top of everything that wasnât finished, so buried in paperwork they stayed - no matter how fast he wrote or read, or how used to the load he was.
He was just thinking about getting up to prepare a fresh pot of coffee so he could function properly for a few more hours when his phone started ringing. He felt around the pockets of his suit jacket, where it sat draped on his chair, and then pulled it free.Â
His display showed an incoming call, a picture of you as he hugged you, hands around your middle and face almost buried into your neck, a soft smile gracing both your faces. A scenery rich with reds, browns, and yellows stood behind you, the beauty of fall was nothing short of spectacular.Â
The picture youâd taken last year when the team spent a weekend at Rossiâs cabin in the woods, surrounded by the beauty of landscapes and leaves, nature for miles.Â
He accepted the call right away, a small smile on his face.Â
âHey sweetheart.â His voice was gentle, if a little raspy from misuse. He hadnât talked much in the last few hours - just a distracted short answer here or a hum there. He was happy you were calling, though, welcoming the reprieve from the most recent report.Â
It was silent for a few seconds, and he wondered absentmindedly if maybe you hadnât called him on accident, and then there came a tiny little sniffle from your side.Â
âSweetheart?â He prompted, âAre you there? Whatâs going on?â Worry was starting to creep into the base of his spine, but he still remained calm and kept his voice gentle.Â
âIâm here. Hi.â Another small sniffle, âAllâs good. JustâŚI was just wondering how much longer youâd be gone.â Your voice was small,like you thought you might upset him by asking, and a little crackly, like you yourself were upset about something.Â
His eyebrows furrowed, and he checked the time quickly - 3:57 pm.Â
âProbably about two more hours, thereâs a lot of paperwork we need to go through.â His eyes met Emilyâs as she sent him a curious, questioning look.Â
âOh, okay.â The resignation was clear in your voice, âIâll see you later then.â The call ended abruptly, and it took him a second to catch up.
He couldnât help but feel like not everything was as good as you claimed it was. For one, you rarely called to ask when heâd be home - you knew his work could span into the late hours, or even stretch for days. You let him update you on any changes in his work schedule.Â
In your interactions, your voice was usually upbeat and teasing - especially on the phone. Your kindness was always evident in your voice, as was your mood. You were a sunshine person, if he ever met one, thatâs probably why you and Penelope formed such a close bond upon meeting.Â
There was something that nagged him - a change in your mood he could pick up on just by your voice - too low, too small, and the cracks that he could now identify as he replayed your conversation in his head. You were keeping yourself from crying out, and yet there was nothing more apparent than the tears in your voice. And that made him worry.Â
âReid, are you okay?â Emilyâs voice snapped him from the hard stare heâd been giving his phone in the last several minutes since the call ended.Â
âIâŚI donât know.â His eye twitched, and he cleared his throat before he tried and failed to articulate exactly what was happening - he himself had a hard time understanding. One thing he knew was that he needed to get home. âI..um, I need to go. Can you, please?â He asked, gusting at the remaining three files on his desk before he pulled his suit jacket on and grabbed his satchel.Â
Morgan and Emily shared a mildly concerned look before they both nodded their heads, âYeah, go. Text to let us know if everything is okay.â Morgan reminded him before he exited the bullpen with a fast step and tried to keep calm.
He was aware the situation wasnât anything that he needed to be incredibly worried over - if something was really wrong, he knew you would have let him know. Yet, he couldnât help the way his heart constricted by the sound of your voice, or the overwhelming desire to come home and gently hold you, see what could have caused this behavior.Â
You were curled up on the couch, watching as Donna helped Sophie get ready for her wedding, the gentle melody of âSlipping through my fingersâ filling the empty apartment. Your eyes were watering, to the point that everything was starting to get blurry. A shaky exhale left your lips.
Today has simply been a rollercoaster. Kissing Spencer goodbye this morning was the highlight of the day. What followed was nothing short of an emotional disaster.Â
Youâd teared up during breakfast, images of picking berries with Spencer flying through your mind. The desire to make it a reality was strong.Â
Following that had come the overwhelming urge to bawl your eyes out, for no apparent reason whatsoever. Just cry and cry until you had it all emptied out and you could take a deep breath and continue with your day. So, cry you did, and then youâd finished with your chores for the day.Â
Apparently letting it all out and emptying your tear supply hadnât happened. Seeing as around 3:30 youâd started missing your boyfriend so much, the need to hear his voice had won out, so youâd called him. You felt the need to have him home to hold you because this monthâs visit from mother flow was making you feel like a crybaby.
But then there was disappointment at the notion that you needed to wait close to 3 hours before that could happen. So you quickly ended the call before he could pick up on the tone of your voice, and then you shed a few tears.Â
Now here you were, rewatching Mamma Mia because you really needed a pick me up, and once again, eyes shining as the tears started falling. At this point, it was a losing battle, so you let them fall, humming to the song with a broken voice.Â
Thatâs exactly how Spencer found you, not a minute later. His keys were in his hand, the satchel on his shoulder, and he was just a little bit out of breath.Â
The moment his eyes met you, they softened as he dropped everything and sat down next to you. His hand reached up and he cradled the side of your face, wiping your tears away.Â
âHey, sweetheart. Whatâs wrong?â He asked in a whisper.
âLook at Donna painting Sophieâs nails, itâs...â You hiccuped, another wave of tears washing over you. âAnd youâre home, why are you home?â Your question was met with a furrow in his brow, as his thumbs continued wiping underneath your eyes.Â
âYou called.â He answered simply.Â
âBut you said-â He stopped you before you could finish your sentence.
âI did, yes. But you sounded off and sad, so. Want to tell me whatâs going on?â He prompted you gently as he pushed your hair back and pulled you into his lap after, feeling like you needed the physical contact.Â
You werenât ashamed to admit it, per se, but you were ashamed that your hormones had caused him to leave work and race home to be with you.Â
âItâs my period,â you mumbled, hands wrapping around his neck as you hid your face in his chest, too tired to prevent your eyes from watering again. âItâs been going on all day. Randomly, Iâd just get so emotional, and the tears would start. I was missing you so much too, and then hearing the song, bam, tears again. Iâm so done with this Spence.â You sounded barely coherent, with your face pushed as close to him as possible.Â
It all made sense now, youâd been cranky a few days ago, and then youâd told him last night your cramps were unbearable, so he knew you were on your period, but right now he felt like an idiot for not figuring it out himself.Â
âItâs okay, everything is fine. The drop in estrogen and progesterone, following your ovulation triggered this. This in turn reduced the production of serotonin, your happy hormone. So, we just need to boost it a bit.â He whispered into your ear as you played with the hairs at the nape of his neck.Â
âHow?â You sighed into his chest, almost being able to pick up on the sound of his heartbeat.
He got deep in thought for a few seconds as you breathed in his scent, and a sense of calmness slowly overtook you now that he was home and holding you. One of his hands was running soothing circles on your back as the other held your hand, fingers interlocked.Â
âHow about we take a trip to the store and get you some snacks? Weâll pick up dinner on the way home and then I'll hold you some more and you'll pick a movie for us to watch.â He suggested, kissing the crown of your head once, twice, and many more times until you gave him an answer.Â
âYeah, yeah, I think that would help, but just having you here has done wonders.â You finally laid your head against his chest, looking up to meet his eyes. He smiled, and so did you. Having him here really had helped immensely, and when had it not? He was your other half, your rock, and even when your emotions ran rampant or you were feeling down, just his presence, his touch, and his understanding were enough to make it all okay.Â
Later in the evening, Penelope sent you a photo of Sergio sleep-hugging a little plushy youâd gotten him, and the waterworks started all over again. Luckily, Spencer was there, wiping your tears and kissing your head, saying a thousand things without actually speaking a word.
Comments and reblogs are greatly appreciated!
Requests are open for both Spencer and Hotch if you want to send any!

That funny feeling
Joel Miller x f!Reader
Summary: pet names are something that's equally very easy and very hard for Joel (based on this request!)
Tags: established relationship, F-L-U-F-F, a grain of angst, idiots in love, a lot of overthinking uGH, mutual dumbassery, love deprived (& soft) Joel, i'm playing with the timeline here a bit, alsoo suggestive undertones hehe
Warnings: swearing and miscommunication, and nothing more ig
Word count: 3.6K
A/N: i'm finally feeling okay!! it took a while and i'm sorry for the wait. as always i hope you all will like what i came up with, and thank you again dear for requesting đ
One of the things you noticed during those first few months of being in a relationship with Joel â and one which probably surprised you the most �� was his fondness for using endearments when he was addressing you.
He called you by many names â darlinâ, sweetheart and baby were just a tip of the iceberg.
And you adored it. Every single one of them.
How could you not when those pet names sounded so precious in that low and gruff voice of his? When the fact that he chose to let you get a glimpse at his softer side made you feel so special?Â
He clearly liked doing this, too â and, as you suspected, watching your reaction when you received them. The tug of his lips and that dimple you so loved were an indicator enough that he wasnât doing it out of obligation or because it was somehow expected of him.
Another thing that surprised you was how casual he was about it. Having not been in a proper relationship before made you feel out of your depth here, but from what you gathered, neither was he. At least for some time.
And yet, he seemed to have no problem or reservations about addressing you this way. He started even before he kissed you for the first time. You suspected that back then it was his strategy to show you â without voicing his intentions out loud â how he felt about you. It worked, somehow (because how were you supposed to resist that southern charm of his?), and once you both settled who you want to be for one another, it was like a switch flipped inside him.
But instead of turning it off, it only amplified his new habit and added more love and tenderness to the tone of his voice when he was calling you pet names.
You certainly were not complaining â especially when Joel was muttering those sweet words in a raspy voice into your skin when you were just waking up, or whispering them in your ear when you were passing each other during the day, brushing his hand against your waist.
So it was probably no surprise that you wanted to return the favor. The longer you were with each other, the more you wondered about what it would be like to call Joel by one of those endearments he used for you. If he would smile, if his eyes would crinkle in that adorable wayâŚ
Something was stopping you, though. Every time you were in public and Joel wasnât currently looking at you, you were reminded of what kind of man you thought he was before you actually got to know him. His expression, the look in his eyes and his very presence were so intimidating that it gave you a pause each time. You knew he was a sweet, loving soul inside and it wasnât like heâd be offended by being called by an affectionate nickname, or like your relationship would spiral down because of that.
âŚright?
What you did know, however, was that Joel Miller was a caretaker. A giver. And you wanted to take care of him, too, to make him feel as loved and cherished as he was making you feel â something you hadnât a clue if you were doing right due to your own inexperience.
So one day, while you were tending to horses in the stables â one of your responsibilities in Jackson â you finally decided to stop overthinking and just⌠do what feels right to you. You were two grown-ass people. If anything happens â but probably nothing will â youâll talk it out like adults.
You got lost in your own thoughts as you absent-mindedly brushed the coat of one of the horses. Suddenly, your attention was drawn by the animal neighing loudly but before you could look up, two strong arms embraced you from behind and a pair of lips pressed themselves to your neck.
You squealed in surprise, and then burst into giggles, when you felt Joelâs beard tickling your skin as he planted tender kisses on your neck, going down to your shoulder.
âMorninâ, sweetheart.â
It was not morning, but you havenât seen him at all today since he left very early to help Tommy and some other men build a new storage house near the main street. As usual, you planned on meeting him when youâre done in the stables, but you were more than happy that he chose to surprise you.
âHi,â you giggled. You tried to turn around to face him, but Joel grumbled and held you tighter to his chest, so you settled for putting your hand on the back of his head in an awkward half-hug. âYou have some nerve coming here after you left me so rudely in the morning.â
He let out a sound between a groan and a chuckle.
âI tried to say goodbye, but you were out cold.â
âYou didnât try hard enough, then.â
âFine. Next time Iâll shake you awake.â He pressed his lips to your pulse, planting a soft kiss there, and then another one a little bit lower, murmuring into your skin. âBut you wouldnât do that either if you were me and had an angel in your bed.â
You blew a raspberry and shook your head, making him hum against your neck with a smile. âToo much?â
âJust a little.â You turned around in his arms, and he dropped his head on your shoulder. âHowâs work going?â
The man sighed heavily.
âItâs goinâ. But I swear to God, Tommy gets more insufferable the sooner due date is. He almost lost it when some of the materials went missinâ.â
âWell, itâs understandable with a little Miller on the way,â you replied, ruffling the hair on the back of his head and making Joel give you the stink eye. You scrunched your nose at him teasingly. âGet that pout off your face, mister, and better start thinking about what weâre watching tonight. My place, right?â
âMhm.â He opened his mouth to say something else, but then angled his head to the side. There was a distant shouting from the direction of the road and you could faintly hear Tommyâs voice among the noise. Joel took a deep breath and his warm eyes met yours. âAlright, I better go before he does somethinâ stupid again. Iâll meet you tonight after guitar practice with Ellie.â
âDonât be late again or I wonât let you in this time,â you said sweetly and a smirk danced on his lips.
âYouâre annoyinâ, you know that?â Joel leaned in and gave you a quick kiss on the lips, and then a lingering one on your forehead. âIâll be on time, promise.â
You smiled and pushed his chest gently, letting him know that he should get back to his brother. He laughed â this actual rare and heartfelt laugh of his, which reminded you yet again how much you loved him â and took a couple of steps back.
âIâm holding you to it, handsome. Now go.â
Joel started to turn around, but then came to a sudden stop as soon as he heard you. It came out a bit awkward because he was mid-step and his feet kind of tangled up together, making him stumble before he managed to catch his balance.
You snorted and tilted your head to the side to peer at him, but his face was unreadable, almost blank. Like that rare and genuine laugh from earlier wiped all the emotions out of him.
âHey. You okay?â you asked with a playful smile, taking in his expression. Joel looked over at you but didnât answer, and you raised your eyebrows. âJoel?â
He parted his lips, like he wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
Something wasnât right. His sudden silence wasnât anything new â one of Joelâs main traits was being untalkative, though it got better since you two started dating, so you were used to it. But this was different. In his eyes there was a look of⌠you honestly couldnât tell if it was awe or hurt. But youâve never seen an expression like this on his face before.
He still didnât say anything. You started feeling uneasy, but tried to play it off.
âOr⌠I could swing by Ellieâs before you two finish andââ
âI gotta go,â Joel muttered suddenly. âIâll⌠see you later.â
He turned to the exit, but you quickly went around him and blocked his way with a frown. âHey, hey, hey, wait. Iâm serious now, are you okay?â
Joel glanced at you again, but then averted his eyes almost immediately. You gave him a weird look when he turned his head, as if looking for someone to get him out of here, but then a grin spread across your face when you noticedâŚ
âIs this⌠Are you blushing?â you asked quietly. Joel winced and your smile got even wider. âYou are! Does thatââ
âI really gotta go, darââ he stopped himself and patted your arm in a slapdash manner, not meeting your eyes. âIâll see you later, alrighâ?â
Before you had a chance to ask or stop him, he walked away quickly, leaving you behind.
Your shoulders slumped and the smile disappeared from your face.
It wasnât supposed to go like this.
*****
He did not see you later.
In fact, you didnât have a chance to talk to him at all that day.
Once you finished your shift, you went looking for him but Joel wasnât at the construction site, nor could you find him anywhere in town. You tried asking Tommy and Ellie about his whereabouts, but while his brother was as clueless as you, the teen seemed suspiciously quiet, and the second you took your eyes off her, she disappeared as well.
He didnât come to your house that evening, and as it turned out, didnât have guitar practice with Ellie, either. You felt a little hurt by the sudden disappearance, but ultimately decided against going to his house and invading his space when he clearly needed it.
It wasnât until the next day that you saw the man again, but you never got a chance to ask him about what happened.
Joel came unannounced to your house and â literally and figuratively â swept you off your feet, acting a little softer and more⌠well, handsy than usual, but still in his normal Joel-like fashion, as if nothing ever happened. He did apologize for disappearing but it also seemed like he was trying really hard to avoid talking about yesterday altogether. So eventually you let it go.
The only explanation you could come up with was that you scared him off. Maybe it was too soon, maybe he just wasnât okay with it â whatever the reason, it was evident he didnât want you to bring it up.
So you decided to respect his boundaries and let the topic go. At least for now.
*****
Almost a week has passed, and you didnât call him that again.
And fuck, if Joel wasnât dying to hear that word from you just once more.
What he felt in that millisecond in the stables was so sudden and new â this weird, fluttery feeling in his stomach when you called him âhandsomeâ â that he honestly was at a loss how to react. Yes, he panicked (he wasnât proud of that) and then when you pointed out the traitorous blush on his cheeks⌠it overwhelmed him.
Avoiding you for the rest of the day was a cowardly thing to do, but he needed some time to think about his next move before he could face you again.
He screwed up, that much was obvious. Joel didnât know how to fix it, but he did have an idea how to make you feel comfortable enough to maybe do it again. A chance for him to react accordingly this time.
So since then, he made sure to show and tell you more often how important you were to him and how much he loved you, even though he was dying of cringe at times. His efforts were rewarding, of course â your every smile, every look in his direction was considered a win and a blessing in itself â and it seemed you forgot about his freak-out from the other day.
But you didnât try it again.
And Joel didnât know what to do. Heâd never ask anyone for advice (God forbid Tommy ever finds out how big of a deal it was to his brother), and talking it out with you seemed like the most unattainable and impossible idea in the world.
You continued calling him by his name â and he couldnât exactly complain when his name sounded so fucking perfect in your voice â but hell if Joel didnât wish you try something else.
It didnât even need to be this âhandsomeâ one you used. Any stupid nickname you come up with, heâd revel in it and this time wouldnât chicken out.
Jesus, he had it bad. It was almost pathetic.
It wasnât a life-changing, world-moving issue, though, and Joel wasnât spending every waking moment thinking about shit like that. There was still work needed to be done in Jackson, he and you still had your own lifes, and⌠days passed.
It was just over a week later, when Joel came back home from a late-night job to find you asleep in his living room, that he thought about it again.
His heart swelled with adoration when he saw your form curled up on the couch. You mustâve been waiting for his return, but neither of you expected his work to take this long.
Joel bent over and put one arm under your knees and the other wrapped around your body, grunting at the pain in his back. You inhaled sharply when he picked you up, grumbling something incoherent.
âShh, babygirl, itâs me,â he whispered soothingly, cradling you against his chest. âIâll put you in bed. Or do you want to go back home?â
You made a noise of disagreement and breathed him in deeply, not opening your eyes.
âYouâre late,â you slurred instead of answering him, nuzzling into his chest. Joel sighed tiredly.
âI know, baby, Iâm sorry,â he whispered back. âThe guys needed more help at the construction site.â
âAlright,â you mumbled again. âMâjust glad youâre home now, honey.â
Joelâs feet stopped moving â gradually this time, not putting you at risk of being dropped â and he took a deep breath to tether himself before continuing his way to the bedroom.
You were asleep, he told himself while he was laying you down. It would be wrong to wake you and talk about it now. It could wait. He could wait.
Joel paused, then crouched at the head of the bed where he put you down, and delicately brushed some hair out of your forehead. His face was stoic, though those thoughts raged on like a hurricane inside his mind.
He had no idea how to do this. How to talk about this.
But he knew two things â he knew that his heart belonged to you, and that he didnât want to settle for those pet names you accidentally muttered when half-awake, all because he was too much of a coward to admit what he wanted.
âDarlinâ?â
âHm?â you hummed, snuggling into his pillow.
Joelâs heart was beating so damn loud, he thought it was about to jump out of his chest. He took a grounding breath, brushing his knuckles against your cheek softly.
âSay that again,â he asked quietly in a raspy voice.
You made a face, keeping your eyes closed.
âI didnât say anything.â
Joel swallowed hard and he was so nervous, he had to remind himself to unclench his jaw not to break all of his teeth.
Fucking Christ, he could take on the swarm of infected any day without losing his cool, so why was admitting stuff like this so damn difficult?
âNot now. Before. TheâŚâ he cleared his throat with embarrassment. His tongue felt like it was made of lead, and his face like it was shoved into a campfire, âpet name.â
That word finally got your attention. In a blink of an eye you were wide awake and lifted yourself on your elbows, rubbing your eyes. Joel almost regretted having said anything.
âPet name?â you repeated, and then a shy, uncertain smile crept over your face. âOh⌠I thought you said you didnât like it.â
Donât run, donât you dare run nowâŚ
âI never said that,â he grumbled and furrowed his eyebrows, angry at himself that he made such a big deal out of it, that he had to talk about it now, a whole week later. You winced sheepishly.
âWell⌠Yeah, you didnât, but the last timeâŚâ You sat up straight on the bed, rubbing your eyes again like you wanted to make sure you were entirely awake and focused for this conversation â which made Joel wishing even more that he had kept his mouth shut. âYou ran off and I thought⌠I dunno, thatâŚâ
You shrugged, but you didnât need to finish, for he understood how it mustâve looked.
Joel sighed heavily and put his forehead on your knee with fatigue. He felt your hands smoothing the shirt on his shoulders and back, and once again wondered what he did to ever deserve you.
âWhat do you say we donât talk âbout this?â he proposed softly, feeling like a goddamn fool now. âJust⌠It felt nice. Good. And I want you to do it again⌠sometimes.â
âI want to talk about it, though.â You cupped his cheeks and lifted his head to look him in the eyes. A thought ran briefly through Joelâs mind about how fitting it was â he on his knees, looking up at you like the miracle you were. âI donât want to make you uncomfortable, Joel. I just donât understand why you didnât tell me.â
âWhat do you think?â he whispered, looking away, though your hands kept his head in place. He raised one of his own to cover your fingers with his, keeping it there. âItâs⌠goddammit,â he swore and closed his eyes, squeezing your hand faintly. âItâs all just kinda new for me, too,â he said at last. âAs dumb as it sounds.â
You swiped your thumbs over his cheekbones. âItâs not dumb.â He didnât say anything, and after a couple of seconds you sighed. âOkay, we donât have to discuss it if you donât want to. Just⌠maybe try to give me a sign next time,â you offered gently. âI donât always know whatâs going on in that pretty head of yours.â
You were trying to lighten the atmosphere, bless your kind heart, and the corner of his lips tugged upwards despite the turmoil in his heart.
âDarlinâ, thatâs what Iâve been tryinâ to do for the past week. Iâm not good at talkinâ but I⌠shit, I donât know, I thought that if I start callinâ you like that more, itâll⌠prompt you to do the same, I guess.â
At that, your hands slid off his cheeks and your face turned blank.
âOh,â you breathed. Joel lifted his eyebrows in question and you added hurriedly: âI thought you were doing this to⌠I donât know, let me know that you feel more comfortable calling me that than getting calledâŚâ
It was Joelâs turn to look at you blankly.
âAre you fuckinâ kiddinâ me?â he whispered with disbelief clear in his voice. âI tried to somehow show you that itâs fine. Do youâŚâ he paused when you slowly started to giggle, which soon turned into a fit of laughter at the tone of his voice. âDo you have any idea how embarrassinâ it was for me at times? And not onceââ
He tried to sound accusatory, but your bright smile was too contagious and soon Joel was grinning, too. He covered the bottom part of his face with his hand, trying to regain his composure, and shook his head while muttering under his breath.
Then he felt your hands on both sides of his head again when you leaned forward and, still with that big, gorgeous smile of yours, started peppering his face in kisses. He tried to swat you away but it didnât take long before he gave in to his fate.
After a couple of seconds of this sweet torture, you pulled back a little, leaving the tingly feeling of your lips all over his face.
âSo, just to make sure. I can call you that?â you asked semi-shyly, though there was a mischievous glimmer in your eye, which made Joel smirk lopsidedly.
âAlready told you, beautiful,â he murmured in a low voice, swiping his thumb across your cheekbone lovingly. âBut nothinâ over-the-top, alright?â
âAlright,â you agreed, just as quietly, and then leaned in to kiss him lightly.
The suffocating coils of embarrassment in his stomach disappeared the moment you touched him. Joel decided that if suffering through those moments of vulnerability would end up with you in his arms and his lips on yours, he was able to survive them.
âNow come to bed, handsome,â you whispered against his mouth with a smile. Your voice had that downright sinful tone to it, which you knew was driving him insane. âI got cold waiting for you all alone.â
Little minx.
He gave you a smirk before crawling on top of you and scooping you in his arms. The sound of your laugh filled the room as he rolled both of you over, pulling you closer and onto his chest.
âWhatever you wish, sweetheart.â

⨠âYou are. You think Iâm gonna believe that line of shit. âBout her lyinâ to me? About you beating the livinâ shit out of her to throw me off? â¨
Readerâs POV:
You roll into the parking lot, unable to fight back your smile. The week was long, but the phone conversations with Rafe held you over just enough. The jail in Charleston wasnât as lax as Kildare County. Understandably, Rafe did not want to push his limits, leaving the phone conversations shorter than youâd hoped theyâd be. Until Rafe was out and everything was taken care of, he didnât want you to leave the penthouse, which meant no face-to-face visits, leaving you craving him even.
Rafe ensured you were taken care of: additional security, groceries sent over, dinner brought by every night, fresh-cut flowers when he thought the old ones had wilted. Rafe had the G-Wagon scrubbed and triple-checked for any additional trackers placed or bugs planted.
He paid a hefty fee to have the cops delete a single recorded call between the two of you. Rafe wanted to know what happened the night he had gotten taken away by the officers. He wanted to know what Tony had said in the voicemail, and what happened between the restaurant and the penthouse. Everything was awful, but the voicemail conjured up the most fury. Rafe dissected each word, dragging Tony; your exâs vile words just added fuel to the fire, like he needed any more. Rafe was very conscious with his words, careful not to incriminate himself further, emphasizing the importance of the business meeting, and that he was looking forward to it even more now.
Of course, given the situation, you couldnât ask about Tony. His well-being wasnât the concern, just curiosity. Where was he? Where did Barry take him? Itâs been seven days⌠He must be well-hidden, or his boys would have found him by now. Thereâs no way heâs dead⌠Rafe would never allow Barry to take that pleasure away from him.
A conversationâ itâs never a conversation with these men, even more satirical after watching how the first one unfolded. If Tony had been there, this would have been over. Maybe this is how it was supposed to happen. Iâm sure Rafe has a few things he wants to say to Tony before he pulls the trigger. There are so many things I want to say to him. I wish I could have been strong enough to take the call at the bar. His words have done nothing but haunt me. But maybe I was meant to hear it too⌠Any fraction of guilt I had about my choices were eliminated in an instant.
The door of the jail fans open, just like it did the week before; Rafe all smiles once again. He bites his lip as he walks to you, taking you in like it's the very first time. Rafe shakes his head in awe as he looks down at you, clearing the space between as you do the same. You jump into his arms, hugging him tightly, burying yourself in his neck. He kisses wherever he can, mumbling against your soft skin about how you're the prettiest thing he's ever seen and feelings mutual. Seeing the beautiful man before you, paired with all the lovely things he did brings nothing but tears and emotion. âI love you, Rafe. I love you so much,â you snivel.
âMmmâŚâ He hums happily, taking his turn kissing up the column of your neck to your ear. âI love you, princess.â
You pull back and smile, eyes locked. His ocean eyes shimmer with happy tears as well. Rafeâs gaze falls to your lips, his focus like a magnet pulling you in. Your arms wrap loosely around his neck as he cradles you in his embrace. Rafe backs you against the car, deepening the exchange. Your tongue swirls with his, lips moving in perfect harmony. He smiles along your mouth, nuzzling his nose against yours. âDamn, I missed my girl.â
Rafe grips the steering wheel, the other hand resting on your bare thigh. His gold chain twinkles on his athletic chest, poking slightly out of his black fitted polo. It had taken everything in your power not to pull him into the back seat after watching him change out of the button-down he walked in with, still sprinkled with blood from the club. He looks at you with a smirk, catching you gawking, loving every second of your attention. âItâll be a short meeting. Aight? Think you can wait?â He teases, making your cheeks warm up as you fight back a dizzy laugh.
âHonestly, I donât think I can.â You take his hand in yours, lifting it, kissing his fingers one by one. âI still have to thank you, baby.â
Rafe releases a lusty laugh, relaxing in his leather seat a little more. âTrust me, princess. I have not forgotten. I've thought about it every night. But, a âthank youâ is not necessary⌠I love takinâ care of you, and I always will.â The car speeds past the townâs welcome sign, barreling toward the Atlantic.
âWhere are we going?â You ask.
âYouâre droppinâ me off at the beach house, baby. You can head over to Tanneyhill. Iâll meet you there when Iâm done, and we can get out of here. How does that sound?â He smiles. You clear the lump in your throat, trying to focus on the question Rafe is asking, but your mind is fixated on the rest of his words. Rafe wants me to leave? âBaby?â he asks gently. ďżź
âIâm dropping you offâŚâ You question uneasily. âDonât you want me to come with you? Donât you need me close by?â
The muscles in Rafeâs arms flex as he tightens his hand around the steering wheel, shaking his head ânoâ as he narrows his sights on the road. âI donât want you to see this, princess,â he responds levelly, his eyes landing on yours.
âCouldnât Barry take care of him?â You invite without thinking. Rafeâs brows knit tightly, a puzzled look pulling on his beautiful face.
âNo⌠Why, baby?â He asks, trying his best to keep his compass on the road ahead.
âI donât know,â you answer hastily. âI just donât - I donât know.â Your stomach sinks, uneasiness setting in. After everything that Tony has done and said, heâs better off dead, but thinking about him dying at the hands of Rafe mere minutes from now had your heart racing. I can't help but think about the fact that he bamboozled Rafe not once but twice. He would have walked into an ambush at the strip club without me there⌠He had no clue the drugs were planted in the Mercedes. âI donât know!â
âWhat donât you know, exactly?â He asks as he pulls up to the beach house, sailing into the driveway, pulling between a vintage BMW and the white van that Tony got taken away in. Rafe turns toward you, demanding your attention. âAre you having second thoughts about this?â He questions, his words dripping with accusation.
âNo!â You gasp. âI - I just. I donât know, Rafe. Iâm just freaking out. Okay?â You whimper as tears start to cloud your vision, your anxiety about the situation making your mind muddled.
âDo you want him to live?â He asks. Itâs hard to place his tone; Rafe at the junctions between perplexed and agitated, his frustration with you clear in his body language alone.
âOf course I donât. I want this to be over with,â you blubber.
âSo do I, princess. And we talked about this before. Itâs not going to be me and you if heâs here. Do you want it to be me and you-â
âYes!â You cry out before he can even finish his sentence.
âDonât think about it then, Aight? Let me handle business. This is why I donât want you in there. I donât want this on your conscience. I want to handle this for you. And we will never talk about this again. Okay?â You nod in silent agreement, but he shakes his head ânoâ. âWords, baby.â
âOkay,â you whisper.
Rafe leans in, kissing you softly. You cup his cheeks in your hands, running your thumbs along the stubble thatâs grown on his face since confinement. âIâm sorry for doubting you, Rafe, but things keep goinâ wrong. Tony keeps getting in the way. I donât want him to hurt you. I donât wanna lose you.â
He melts into your touch, looking at you with adoring eyes. âYouâre not gonna lose me. And heâs not gonna hurt me. All right? Heâs strapped to a chair. He has been for a week. This is just a matter of me lookinâ him in the eyes and letting him know that he will never get to hurt you again. Yeah?â
âOkay, baby,â you breathe as Rafe catches your tears with his thumbs.
âI love you, y/n. Itâs all going to be okay.â
âOkay⌠I love you too, baby.â
âI know you do,â he whispers. âOnce I close this door, I want you to drive. Understand?â He asks as he opens up the navigation on your phone, pulling up the address to his home in Figure Eight. âRemember what happened last time I told you to leave but you stayed an extra two minutes. You gotta listen to me,â he asserts.
âIâll listen.â
âPromise?â
âI swear,â you whisper.
Rafe grabs the handle of the driverâs side door, pushing it open before walking around the front, helping you to your feet. His arm wraps around your waist, leading you to the other side. He hugs you tightly, pressing kisses on your forehead and cheeks before landing on your lips, kissing you one last time.
âJust a conversation,â you whisper.
âNah,â he breathes. âNot this time. I love you, princess.â
âI love you too, Rafe.â
Your hand holds his as he steps away until your fingers lose contact. Rafe reaches behind his back just as he did the night you walked into the club, checking the pistol tucked into his waistband before falling out of sight. You step into the driverâs seat, wrapping your hands around the steering wheel, still warm from Rafe. You grab the shifter, putting it in reverse, fighting against the impulse to wait in the wings âtil he handles business, just in case he needs to flee. This man gives and gives. He has barely asked me for anything in return. Just leave. You roll out of the drive, pressing down on the gas.
Rafeâs POV:
âBarry?â I bark, my voice bouncing off the walls of the beach house. Rap music swells from the basement, the dank smell of weed hazing the place. My aggravation starts to mount; a SOLO cup crushes under the heel of my dress boot, just one of many. Empty liquor bottles and beer cans litter the counter, takeout food strewn across the tables, thongs, stripper heels, and a few stray lines of coke left cut on the counter. âIâm gonna kill him,â I curse his name under my breath as I bound toward the basement door.
I tug it open, my heart plunging as I see a pool of blood gathered on the floor. Shit. I catch my gun, heart banging as I race down the flight. âOh, fuck⌠No. Sh-Shit. Barry?â I stutter as I run toward him, his white tank top drenched crimson red. His dark eyes lift momentarily, falling heavy the next. I catch his shallow breathing, leaning in close as he tries to mumble out a few words, quelled in blood.
âTony?â I ask, watching as he gives me the slightest nod. This blood is fresh. Heâs here.
BANG.
I draw my gun again as the door at the top of the stairs bangs shut. Here we go⌠I sprint toward the wall, half-hidden, listening to his heavy steps as they move closer and closer.
âYou hidinâ from me, Cameron?â Tonyâs voice cuts through the hush. âThat was an awful lotta coke. You come to pay up? Or, did you just come to take somethinâ else from me?â He booms as he steps out, footing right past me.
He looks like shit. His white button-down shirt tattered and bloodied on his large body; Tonyâs donning the same worn-in beard as me after his week of imprisonment in the basement. The fucker got the shorter end of the stick apparently, beaten to the edge of death, Barry doing all but killing the bitch.
I check his hands, breathing a sigh of relief; no gun. I adjust my mine as I see a weapon, however, a large kitchen knife clutched in his massive hand. End this. I find his head in my crosshairs, aiming my pistol at his skull, gritting my teeth, battling with the rational part of my brain thatâs tellinâ me to fire. The irrational part of my mind yearning to feed my pride and tell him everything I wanna say for her⌠Tony bends around, smiling with blood-stained teeth. Shit.
âYou gonna shoot, Cameron? Or you gonna just stand there like a pussy,â Tony spits.
âWe got some shit we need to talk about first. Hmm?â
âYou wanna talk about my girl-â
âMy girl,â I stop him as I step a little closer, making him shake his head in disbelief, snickering cruelly as he looks back at me.
âYours? Your girl? Since when exactly. âCause she never said shit to me. Do you honestly think that she loves you? Are you that fuckinâ stupid?â He asks as he rolls up his sleeves, preparing for a fight.
âI know she loves me,â I grunt as I square up with him.
âYou think sheâd leave me? It was our plan for you to die at the club. She knew it. I knew it. You were just supposed to walk in.â
âYouâre lyinâ,â I spit.
âAm I?â He smiles againâ that same wicked and crazed smile; punch-drunk after a week of torture. âYou know Iâm not, Rafe.â
âYou are. You think Iâm gonna believe that line of shit. âBout her lyinâ to me? About you beating the livinâ shit out of her to throw me off? You think I believe you youâd actually let me fuck-â
âENOUGH!â He thunders, his loud, deep voice making my muscle tense up. âDonât finish that FUCKING sentence. Because how hard you make this is how hard she's gonna get it after I KILL you. You understand?â
âYou can't even let me finish the sentence, Marietta. You canât even let the words leave my lips,â I chuckle. âYa know, about fuckinâ âyourâ girl, on the couch of your club? That same couch you fucked some stripper on. You think I believe that youâd actually let that happen? She ainât in on this, Tony. This is you losinâ her and settinâ me up.â He steps closer and so do I, the pair of us level-eyed.
âIâm not lyinâ. That women would do anything for me. And, at the end of the day, even if I am lyinâ, sheâd only want you for your money, Cameron. Iâm man enough to admit you got more than meâ new money and old money in your pocket. She saw an opportunity and took it. Sheâs either in on this or in it for the cash.â
âSheâs not after my money,â I mumble as I try to keep my emotions at bay. âSheâs not in on shit.â
ââCourse she is⌠Your head is just too far up your ass to see whatâs really goinâ on around you. Nâletâs just say my baby isnât in on this with me and she just after your money and she finds someone else with more, buddy, youâre fucked. âCause if you get what you came here for and you kill me, everything in my name goes to her: all of the hard earned money that I made that she loves to spend, the club, the law firm, my cars, my jewelry, my homes. Everything that I have she takes from me. And she knows that. You gotta see whatâs goinâ on here. Right?â He asks as he looks back at me like I'm stupid.
âYouâre pathetic.â
âIâm pathetic?â He chuckles. âYou know before your boys picked me up, I was on the way to fuck my girlfriend in that pretty little penthouse you bought her. She even sent me a few pictures in that pretty pink lingerie. You know, the one she was describinâ for you on the phone? Fuck, Rafe. You should see it on her. My princess doesnât just talk a big game. She knows how to fuck,â he sneers as he catches me battling my emotions. âWhy donât you go look at my phone. Pretty sure itâs in his pocket. You can see for yourself.â
My stomach falls as I hear the door crack at the top of the stairsâone step then another, as the person at the top creeps down. No. No. Tony hears it as well, the man looking over my shoulder with a smile. âGuess whoâs here, Cameron,â he whispers. âPrincess?â Tony softens his tone with her, the sound of y/nâs slight feet stopping in a flash.
Was this her plan all along?
I scrunch my nose; eyes burning with tears of deceit and rage. Thereâs no way the story heâs spinning is true. If he kills me, and heâs lying, what will happen to her? I canât take that risk.
I shove him hard, making him stumble back, kicking him with the heel of my dress shoe square in the chest before he can rise back up to his feet, sending him and the knife to the ground. I hear her soft gasp; her feet quickly clearing the rest of the steps. âDonât move, y/n,â I bark back at her.
âRafe?â She whimpers, making me look over my shoulder. The second I do the air flees my lungs, Tonyâs big body tackling me to the floor. My skull ricochetes off the hardwood floor; eyes slamming shut in pain, losing my gun in the process. I overpower him, rolling him to his back, grabbing his shoulders I lift him slightly, bashing his head against the ground again and again making him scream out in pain.
He scratches and claws at my face and shirt as I wrap my hands around his throat, squeezing with all my might. "Not so easy to fight a man. Huh?" I hiss.
"F-Fuck you," he stammers as he throws a rough punch, meeting my jaw. I respond with four of my own. The connections, direct and brutal, the dried blood on his face replaced with fresh blood as his body starts to go limp.
Finally.
I stare down at him, lifeless, one with the floor, his breathing almost nonexistent. I draw my hand back, slapping him across the face, his head snapping to the side; body unresponsive to the pain. I drag myself to my feet, stumbling across the living room for my gun. An execution. This ends right here. Right now.
My chin trembles with adrenaline and emotion as I try to get his words out of my head. Thereâs no way she was in on this all along. Everything she shared with me, the things she said to me, the things we did⌠That was real. She's here âcause she was worried. She's here âcause her intuition was right. She's here for me.
BOOM. BOOM. BOOM. My heart sinks, the rapid bounding of Tonyâs feet stopped almost as soon as it start. Itâs quiet, wet gurgling and a soft whimpers are all that remains. I turn around, facing Tony but his eyes arenât on me. He looks down at his chest, the bloodied tip of carboned steel poking out from his chest. He falls to his knees before me, y/n standing behind him in shock, watching as he tumbles face-first on the floor.
She looks up at me, eyes filled to the brim with tears. I run to her, pulling her into my arms, holding her body close as she clings to me for dear life.
I haven't let her go since. It wouldn't feel right. I hold her, watching as the sun sets in the east; a blood-red sky, painted across the Atlantic. The last sliver of the golden sun dips below the horizon. I kiss her gently on her cheek, down the soft flesh on her neck to the dip on her shoulder before resting my chin on top. âAre you okay, baby,â she whispers. I rest my hands on the top of hers, pressing my chest against her back as we both look over the edge of the yatch, watching the black water swell below.
âMâperfect, princess,â I whisper as I nuzzle into her neck. âAre you okay.â
âI am,â she whispers, âbecause of you. Thank you...â
âThank you,â I mumble as she melts into me. âI needed you. I can't believe you did that for me.â
âIâd do anything for you,â she whispers as she turns, resting her hands against my chest, looking up at me with pleading eyes. âI know him. I know Tony probably filled your head with lies but I promise, none of itâs true.â
âI know,â I assure as I cup her cheeks in my hands, guiding her soft lips to mine. âThis is almost over and from here on out itâs just you and I.â
âYou and I,â she echoes. I kiss her forehead and her lips before pulling away.
âStay here. Mâserious.â She nods submissively, falling back as I move foward. I shuffle across the main deck, grabbing the rail, walking down the small flight of stairs to the carport before raising the hatch. I reach behind my back, pulling out my 9mm, opening the trunk.
There he lies, Tony Marietta. I smile as he lifts his eyes, matching mine; the bloodied knife already laying by his side. I take the gun, pressing it against his temple, tilting my head slightly to keep his eyes on me. âMâso glad youâre alive for this⌠I could make this fast,â I whisper. âBut after all the shit you did, Iâm gonna have you dyinâ nice and slow. Too bad I don't get to watch.â He goes to speak but all that comes out is a thick trail of blood. âI know what you're gonna say⌠Donât worry. Iâm gonna do what you couldnât. Iâm gonna take care of her. And that's a promise.â I toss my gun inside before slamming the trunk.
Moving to the front I step inside, firing up the engine before shifting it into neutral. I give the vintage ride a little push, the pull of the yacht sending the tires rolling. I follow the car as it plunges into the deep, dark waters, the depth snuffing out the headlights âtil all thatâs left is blackness.
Goodbye, Tony.
Epilogue
One year laterâŚ
Readerâs POV:
You roll up to Tanneyhill, flooding the big driveway with light after a late night shift at the Country Club. Itâs mine now and business is booming; a new staff with increased security. Rafe took it upon himself to turn it from the dive it once was to a luxury experience, all for me. Of course I clean his money, the perfect front. Anything for my man. Stepping out of the car you make your way up the cobblestone walk to the front door, passing the bay window, watching as Rafe shuffles by in a black button down, resting two plates of food down on the table.
âKnock. Knock,â you sing as you open the door with a smile, matching Rafeâs beautiful blue eyes making him return the same.
âBabygirl,â he croons as he walks closer, helping you out of your jacket before, swathing his strong arms around you waist, looking down at you lovingly.
âWelcome home. Happy Anniversary,â you coo as you rise on your tippy toes, pressing a kiss on his lips. âI didnât think youâd be home âtil next week.â
He smiles against your lips, recalling his initial plan, the pair of you knowing there was no way he was gonna miss this day, even if it meant flying home from Morocco for one night only. âI wouldnât miss this for the world, you know that, princess,â he mumbles against your mouth between kisses. âI got your favorite.â
Rafe takes your hand, leading you to the dining room, pulling out your chair, directing you to sit. You look across the table seeing all of your favorite things; the meal, the flowers, wine. Little candles glint in the middle of the table, adding to the ambiance as he runs you a glass of Chateau Lafite Rothschild, the first bottle of wine you shared on your very first night together.
"You look stunning," Rafe praises, lifting his glass to his lips, sipping slowly as his eyes drink you in.
"And you look very handsome, Rafe Cameron," you hum, resting your hand on the thigh of his Armani suit.
"You know baby, youâve been working too hard. Are you free this week?â He asks, knowing the answer is ânoâ, but thatâs not the reply heâll get. If heâs asking you to go somewhere heâs already worked everything out for you.
"Iâm always free for you, baby."
"Mhmm⌠Barry and his girl are gonna watch the club so you can come to Morocco with me. How does that sound?â
âSo nice⌠Youâre so good to me,â you sigh blissfully as you grab him by the collar of his jacket, pulling him to your lips. âFuck, I love you.â
"Mmm⌠Yeah? Wanna sit on my lap and tell me how much you love me? We can see what happens next,â he chuckles warmly.
âDonât tempt me, baby. You know I have no problem taking you right here,â you smile, the blonde smirking as he recalls what happened the morning before he left.
âYou are so good to me,â he corrects you. "Y/n, I'm so happy you're mine. I hope you feel that.â
"I'm so happy I'm yours," you smile, spreading a little wider. âOf course, I feel that.â
"You deserve to have the very best, sweetheart. You deserve to be happy, and safe, and loved.â He leans in closer to you, his eyes meeting yours.
"I do⌠Youâre perfect, Rafe.â
âIâm not, princess. But I wanna be for you,â he whispers, swallowing thickly. Your brows rumple as his mood shifts from flirty and light-hearted to serious. His eyes always look bluer when heâs on the verge of tears, yet, his smile contradicts it all. "I got you something."
"Yeah?"
âMhmm,â he hums and nods as he reaches into his suit jacket pocket, pulling out a blue box.
"Oh my gosh! Rafe Cameron,â you gasp. âIt's too much.â
"It's not, princess," he smiles softly. You reach for the box, but he keeps it in his hand, using the other to brush the tears out of his eyes.
"Rafe... Are you okay?" You whisper as you cup his cheek in your hand. He shuts his eyes, relishing in your touch, leaning into you slightly. He takes a few deep breaths before opening his eyes again.
"Iâm perfect, baby.â He whispers weakly. "Umm... I'm not sure how I'm this in love with you, baby. But I am. And, at this point, I genuinely can't remember a time when I wasn't. Every night since I saw you I fall asleep with you on my mind, and I wonder if you're doing the same. I can't even comprehend losing you, or someone hurting you. Iâve said this once and Iâll say it a million times I donât trust anyone to protect you but me and that includes your heart too. It's you, princess. It's fucking you. I can't describe it any more than that. You are the only person I want and will ever want. You make me feel safe. You make me feel loved. And since I've met you, sweetheart, you've always been that person. My girl. I can't love anyone else. And, I don't want to. So, with that being said. Y/n, will you marry me?" Rafe moves from the chair, dropping down to one knee, pulling open the box, the Tiffany engagement ring, resting in the center.
Your eyes widen, hand covering your bright, ecstatic smile. "Yes!" You squeal in delight, making Rafe let out a happy chuckle as he glides the jewelry on your finger.
"Yes?"
"Yes! Yes, Rafe! Oh my gosh. I thought it was a necklace," you gasp as you eye the ring on your finger.
"I figured, when you tried to take it from me. I got nervous," he laughs warmly, guiding you to his lips. You smile against his kiss, Rafe doing the same.
"I love you, Princess."
"I love you too, Rafe Cameron.â

â¤ď¸â𩹠Life Update (And another BIG update...)
So I typically don't do this, but I just wanted to share something more personal with you guys.
Some of my friends on here already know this, but I've been going through a really rough time this summer, with an ongoing medical issue that has put me through multiple procedures and one surgical procedure last month in July. The issues all began the exact week I moved into a new apartment.
Then, just a few days after my surgery, I was let go from my job. I've been spending the last couple of months trying to recuperate, dealing with quite a lot of pain and discomfort, all while job hunting and writing stories to take my mind off it all.
I really wish I could tell you guys I'm in the homestretch of my recovery. I really thought I was! But, I just got some bad news this past Tuesday during a follow-up appointment. At best, I will need another surgical procedure. At worst, I'll need to be referred to another specialist for more answers.
I'm telling you all of this for a couple of reasons:
(And another big update below the cut!)
You've probably seen me even more active on here for the past couple of months. That's because Tumblr has been one of my main outlets, not just to distract my mind from what I've been going through, from the stress and anxiety, but also to engage more with my friends and followers. Trust me, your feedback, encouragements, comments and reblogs, tagging me on posts, and sending me fun asks has helped ease my mind. It's made me smile and laugh, even when I felt more like crying. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you! đđ
To potentially help offset some of my financial burdens, I'm working on creating a Patreon! I already have a Ko-Fi page, but I think Patreon will help me give back to you guys better while members support me in turn. It will be a simple monthly membership where you can get early access to my new stories and series chapters, early sneak peeks on new fic projects, some fun bonus content (like fic sequels and bonus drabbles), priority on fic requests, and more!
So stay tuned, because that's coming very soon. đđ
Tagging some of my lovely mutuals and readers who've made my day brighter:

Pick a pile đ¤
đ By analysing the pictures only
( pls let me know if it resonated as this is my first time đ) ( please take this with a grain of salt ) đ xoxo
Pile 1 â¤ď¸-
They both are looking at the sunset đIt appears like it's the ending of something ( not the relationship necessarily) but something is ending and also they are looking relaxed also I think there is some foot fetish there đ like the masculine wants to touch her feet đž, I'm getting really soft love vibes đ and it feels like the masculine is a secretive person or is just not good at showing emotions and the feminine have this airy energy to her , also I'm seeing a heart in the cloudes with orange 𧥠and yellow đ shades it feels like a love which beautiful , which makes you feel alive, it is strong like really strong with a lot of comfort in it like you have gone through a lot of things together!
Pile 2 -
They both look so much at comfort with each other , the guy have a playful childlike energy and the girl is also like that but more mature and they have a playful energy but they are mature in love â¤ď¸, the guy is cunning though , also I feel like they are not very rich but happy , I'm getting gloomy vibes too lol , like you want to cherish each other forever âžď¸, I'm getting a very mutual energy it's really sweet đ§ I'm getting teary now !
Pile 3-
The first thing I saw was the light between their chests like the love is glowing inside them đđ¸ aww it's beautiful, they are looking at each other with disbelief and so many questions in their head about the whole situation , I'm also getting how on earth I found you like they had lost all the hopes for love â¤ď¸ the masculine gives sweet , đ§ cupcake vibes and the girl appears to be a baddie to me , she's also stylish even the guy is ,also I feel like the guy wants to say something but the words are stucked in his Adam's apple like he's not being able to say anything , the girl wants to kiss him also he's looking at her very passionately , also there's so much pink energy that it feels like a new spark !
Please read this prettyđđ !!
( it is my first time đ doing a reading so please don't take this seriously at all , i just did this for fun and I wrote whatever came to my mind by seeing these pictures so that's that , but if it resonated please 𼺠let me know!)

I'm a huge fan of your work, your writing is so beautiful, and the way you add your own personal love of art is just; it's genuinely amazing. I was wondering if you have any paintings that you think each of your favorite characters would represent or maybe even what u see when u look at them. â¤ď¸đźđ¨đ
Oh boy do I love this ask! Firstly, than you 𼺠you're too kind đ
Second I have so many paintings that spring to mind for various characters! Immediately off the bat my brain went right to Lestat and how his presence and aesthetic (especially in 1920s New Orleans) gave gigantic J.C. Leyendecker vibes.
(left) The Sleuth J.C. Leyendecker, ca. 1906 and (right) Arrow Shirt Collar Ad, 1916. By J.C. Leyendecker For Arrow Shirt Collars, 1916
The way Leyendecker plays with shadow, light, and color to project an air of seduction and power is just *chef's kiss.* He is a master at depicting an idealized masculinity that still has a level of vulnerability. I don't think it's just the styling/ fashion of the men in Leyendecker's illustrations that remind me of Lestat, but the features as well. J.C. gives them this attitude of nonchalance but there's something deeply concerned with appearances underneath. Is that not Lestat?
For Claudia there are a couple. First (not a painting but a sculpture) is Degas' The Little Dancer Aged Fourteen. I look at this piece and think of the history of ballet and the connotations of ballet at the time Degas was working. In France at the time ballerinas were highly taken advantage of and exploited. The exploitation was sexual in nature and simultaneously adultified and infantilized. They were highly fetishized. It's very sad and tragic and it reminds me of Claudia. The Little Dancer has an almost defiant energy to her, like there is a sense of pride and restraint, something dignified despite her lesser social standing.
I also see something of Claudia in this piece: Girl in Pink Dress, ca. 1927 by Laura Wheeler Waring. I also think this girl embodies the qualities of both Bailey and Delainey's Claudiasââ there's simultaneously an innocence and maturity. I see something similar in Isabella, (aka Young Woman with a Fan), 1906 by Simon Maris and I just think it's neat to see art of Black people done by a white person from the early 1900s that isn't fetishizing or racist (don't look at J.C. Leyendecker's art of Black people, yikes!)
For Louis, my first thought was Derek Fordjour's STRWMN, 2020. It gives NOLA Louis to me in terms of style, but also the colorful and fun energy has the vibes of his little journey of gay self-discovery in Paris. I also see Louis in Lois Mailou Jones' Negro Youth, 1929. It mirrors depressed Louis for me. There is something very fragile in his expression, but you can tell he's trying to be strong, much like Louis.
As for Armand? Well, the number one is Botticelli's Saint Sebastian (it just has an uncanny resemblance to Assad) and the metaphor is too apt to not point out. The other that immediately make me think of Armand is The Abduction of Ganymede by Correggio. It's less the painting and more the myth it's based on, but out of all the Ganymede paintings, Correggio's is my favorite.
And Daniel is just like... any Nan Goldin photo, but I'll pick Heart-shaped bruise, 1980. I don't think I need to give my thoughts here đ
Thank you again for such a fun ask! I appreciate every message I get from anons and mutuals alike đĽ°
[*Edit: Being transparentââI went back and corrected a mistake I made in the original because I don't want an inaccurate/ racist post going around, even after a correction in the reblogs if people aren't seeing the original. I accidentally implied that Laura Wheeler Waring was white. I meant the statement about Simon Maris, who was a Dutch portrait artist. Laura Wheeler Waring was a prominent Black artist. Lesson to self: do not write deeply thoughtful posts at 1 am while you have a fever.]

Guys, the new year hasnât started for me yet, I still got a few hours to go but Iâll mine-as-well make this post since Iâll probably go to bed anyways- đ
First, Iâd like to say
WE GOT A NEW BANNER LETâS GOOOOOâźď¸âźď¸âźď¸âźď¸
HELL YEAH! -I mean itâs just the characters but- HELL YEAHâźď¸âźď¸âźď¸âźď¸
SECOND. I want to show you something AMAZING and that something Iâd never expect??
321 FOLLOWERS????
YOU GUYS ARE INSANE THANK ALL OF YOU SO MUCH MY GODâźď¸âźď¸âźď¸âźď¸âźď¸
It really makes me think how all of you guys really like and appreciate my art, and the fact that so many people encourage me to keep doing it, it brings me to tears! đĽš
Every one of you are the best thing in my life!! The first time I got Tumblr I started in:
March 30?? Thatâs insane- đ
And the fact that Iâve improved SO MUCH is just INCREDIBLE!
You wanna see the FIRST drawings of Peppino??
YEAH THATâS ME I DID THIS-
And youâre telling me that this was in what- THE START OF MARCH?? (Or February I donât remember-) But this is just the PINNACLE of how much Iâve changed in terms in art style and experience.
I bring this up because I think Tumblr is the REASON why I improved so much! I experimented with brushes (digitally) and I found my brushes!! I learned how to EXAGGERATE AND ACTUALLY DRAW CARTOONY LIKE IâVE WANTED TO FOR SO LONG!!
(And NEVER took an art class. Thatâs fucking what- đ I need to take one I actually need to at this point-)
Also also also- Iâve learned a lot of things! Anatomy, exaggerative expression, stretchy cartooniness, ALL OF THESE ARE JUST- I canât believe Iâve learned all this because one day I decided: âMaybe I should ACTUALLY get a social media for my art? đ¤â AND I DID IT AND CHANGED MY LIFEâźď¸âźď¸âźď¸
YOU GUYS CHANGED MY LIFE!-
My followers!- My mutuals/friends- I NEED TO SAY HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE ALL MY MUTUALS, ALL OF YOU đđđđđđđđ
Everything about Tumblr has changed me in SUCH a positive way in not only terms of art but with how many people (TALENTED PEOPLE) Iâve made FRIENDS with AND ACTUALLY got to know!!!
I already said it but you guys are absolutely AMAZING and I just CANâT FATHAM how much this year has just been a BLAST.
My mutuals:
@noodletime @moon9931 @marclef @margarita-the-pizzeria-worker @lucia-the-mii @lovestryke @lord-yiikes @ijusthavefun @linhfoxmoive @kate-bot @nomlioart @boogiestronic80s @zedortoo @jarroyave4637 @atlaslovesedm @alaskacoolkid1 @remaking-machine @average-amount-of-chaos @cherryxsapphic @dingle-dee @eyeballdrawer @tailsdollsnewlife @radaverse @gongustheawsome01 @fluffygiraffe @qwertykeyboard045 @w00den-h3ad @the-little-knight @oddpizza @misdreavusplush
(OKAY- I may have added some people on here that I think ARE REALLY COOL, I may not talk to you much but Iâve seen you guys like my art and I think yaâll deserve to be on here đŤśđâ¨)
AND IF I MISSED ANYONE PLEASE TELL ME IâM SO SORRY BUT JUST KNOW I LOVE ALL OF YOU THE SAME (Platonically) I HOPE YOU GUYS HAVE A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR AND HAVE A GOOD ONE đđđ
GOOD NIGHT TO ALL YOU LOVELY PEOPLE YOU GUYS MEAN THE WOLRD TO ME AND HAVE A GREAT NIGHT đđđđ
#HAPPY NEW YEARSâźď¸âźď¸âźď¸ đđđđ#(Even if it hasnât started for me yet- đ
)#For all the people I tagged I really hope you donât mind- I seriously love you guys and since some I see VERY OFTEN on here-#And again for anyone I did not tag I appreciate you just the same đŤśđŤśđŤś#MAN my art has improved-#If I did one of those art of the year thingys my art would look SO DIFFERENT youâd think that someone else did it- đ#I still like it tho- as much as I like how I draw Peppino now I still actually like how the first time I drew him#He looks silly and rounder- And I kind of like that- đ#Iâm not gonna ramble as much in the tags since the actual post is- DAMN-#Still. Hope you guys have a wonderful New Year đđ Gonna try and do the most in terms of art this year. And I canât wait for this Tumblrâs#birthday! đđđ#I love yaâll so much. đđ (If you donât do platonic kisses hugs will do if you consent đŤśđŤś)

Hello my little grieving friends (aka my CREW!)
I just want to talk about how much our flag means death has given me. I have not had internet friends since i were a teenager. They all kind of disapeared over time in the same way as high school classmates went away. I have been on this blog on tumblr since 2010 and i have never experienced what ofmd has given me. Not even in my very derranged ca 5 year long sherlock-era did i get to befriend and know this many amazing people who live in my phone. Some of you have come and gone and that is life, but some of you are still here and I hope I get to keep you here for a very long time. Max can not stop us and I want to be here with you until tumblr is put down like the beloved rabid pet it is.
I think we are all taking the news very hard and I think it's important to remember what it is all about really. It's about love and family and above all else the crew so i just want to show some love for my beloved mutuals. And i hope maybe some of you will be inspired to do the same because its what we need in these dark times. We need to be a lighthouse guiding each other to shore.
First of all @gentlebeard - Ellađ my beloved honey đŻ I can not explain properly or even believe how lucky I am that I found you and that I get a little good morning from you every day. We have been talking every single day since the first message over a year ago and I don't remember or want to remember how i survived before that. I will treasure the time i spent drinking pina coladas on your balcony in the sun forever and i hope i will get some more time on that balcony this summer. I have found a pirate bar in Sweden so we can continue our expensive pirate drinks theme that we started in Berlin. There is no one else i want to spend 6-8 hours talking to over the phone.đMy partner in crime, lasagna partner and floor person or whatever nicknames we have come up with during this time. You are not just the perfect friend to have, you are also funny, sweet, smart and a expert at making fanvideos that make me cry my heart out and laugh my lungs up - sometimes at the same time đđ
@blakbonnet - Meow my darlingđ you were the first one i really started to talk to in the fandom and i am so glad i did. You brighten my days and i love talking to you you brilliant humanbeing (i often find myself thinking i have listened to much to cabin pressure because i struggle to use any other word than brilliant to explain things.. the Arthur runs deep in me) also thank you for being my personal skincare guide in life!! Your fics, your art, your edits, your gifs, your meta the whole you make my dash a better place and we are all happy to have you! There is nothing you are not good at and i am both a bit jealus and impressed by you. Its Meows fandom we all just live in it đđ
@youshouldseemeinadeerstalker - Nes my dearđ We may not be talking very often but I know I always have you there. I loved our vacation together and we had so much to talk about that we didn't even realize that the same song kept playing in my car so long that it messed up my spotify wrapped. It was amazing taking naps with you outside ruins of castles and in botanical gardens and living together in the worlds smallest hotel room. I hope we can get lost together in more cities than Hamburg and Copenhagen. (preferably without rain and sickness and maybe with a map) đđ
@darkinerry - Marlena đ its a pleasure getting weather and work updates from you and i am always interested in knowing what you have been up to and what you have to say. It brightens my day, please never stop!! Your videos and gifsets can make any day better and you are always kind and funny which are two things i appreciate hugely in my friends!! đđ + You have the coolest haircut out of all my mutuals đ
@aha-my-villainous-thoughts - Ash my wifeđ my loveđNothing can make me scream, blush and giggle as much as your fanart. You have this style of everything you make from fanart to dolls to interior design that is so special and breathtaking. One day we will drink so many lattes in a cosy cafe and then sniff lush products for the rest of the day. đ You are always there for me - as a online shoulder to cry on or to motivate me with the smuttiest wips ever. I am happy to be mutual married to you đđ
@bizarrelittlemew - Ida đ- my thirsting for rhys brother in arms. I can not imagine tumblr without your gifs or your posts. I love screaming with you over a picture of rhys darbys bicep. I am so happy i got to meet you this summer and i really hope it will happen again. We are not that far from each other, just some miles and a stupid bridge; we can make it. You are always a sweetheart and an incredible friend who write the hottest fanfiction everđđ
@dickfuckk - josh đ (who I also thought for a long time was called tyler) I dont know where the fandom would be without your bts blog! its a international treasure and a service to humanity. i don't know how you do it. đYou always have everything i have ever been looking for and as a bonus you are witty and funny like no one else. I am so happy i got to meet you and spend a whole day in your company! đ
@izzy-b-hands - Holden my absolute darling!đ I am so glad I got the chance to get to know you! You are smart, funny and kind and my izzy mutual tm. You are always there for me with kind words and I am still forever shipping izzy and the third badminton brother which I think is the best headcanon I have ever helped coming up with. đ
@funforahermit - Kristina đ Your love for Rhys and your gifs are a staple on tumblr and my dash. I know where to go when i need someone to understand how hot Steve is (even if we have agreed that he is yours and Murray is mine which i still think is a fine deal). I very often make or see a picture of Rhys and my first thought is "I NEED TO SHOW KRISTINA THIS" so you live rentfree in my brain đ
@rainbowcrowley - Addi đIf i ever start playing wow again you bet i am gonna be talking your ear off about my little frost mages progress but in the meantime i am happy to have you on my dash and even if we don't talk that much are you a beloved part of my dash and brighten it daily.đđ
@fandomsmeantheworldtome - Mariađ You were one of the very first people i found in this fandom and your gifs might have helped my rhys obession taking form. You might be into many things I have never heard of but its a pleasure seeing your excitement over everything. You are always a ray of sunshine and i love that so muchđđ
@tabbystardust - Tabby dearđ You are the kindest person I know who I always get the strongest need to hug and hold close. Your fanart is beyond this world and i adore it like nothing else. Its always both hot and soft in the best way everđ I am always excited to get kitty updates and to hear about your ramen receipts. I hope we can still meet at the con next year! I am game if you are!! đđ
@hummingbee-o0o - Humming đ (i dont know your name sorry) I am always excited to hear your thoughts and metas about everything ofmd related as well as your beautiful art. đ it was a pleasure to scream about season 2 after every watched episode!đ
@xoxoemynn - Emy đđ i am so happy to be mutual with you! đYou always bring joy to the people who get to be around you and fill my dash with the same. We might not talk often but i know you got my back! That is the kind of person you are!đ
@saltpepperbeard - Jodiđ No one write tags on tumblr dot com like you. There is nothing that can cheer me up more than see that one of my posts has gotten a whole ass novel written in the tags and then i instinctively know that its you who have left your wonderful mark. You are always excited and such a lovely human to be mutual with. đ And on top of that you make incredible gifs that make my heart stop!!! đđ
@autumnbois - Kai đđ I hope you are doing okay. We might not talk much right now but you were there for me when i needed it most and you are a good friend to have living in my phone.đđ I will think of you whenever i see something related to scream and your love for piccrew always make me smileđ
@edsbacktattoo - Jams, jams jams! đ We are never online at the same time because of the damn time differences *shakes fist* but you are a staple in this fandom. Your art is incredible and you are the sweetest cookie in the jar. You are funny and always spread good energy to everyone around you and I love that with my whole heartđđ
@kiwistede - Sam đ Your love for stede and rhys is unmet and i love you for that. You are always a good source for some rhys darby insanity and we all know that is what i treausure most here in life! đđ
@stedesearring - Kaitlinđ You are the sweetest and kindest soul out here always spreading joy and love like the sun of my dash. đ I always love seeing you and i am happy to have the pleasure to have you as a friend in my phone! đđ
@stedebonnets - Ara đ Where would we be without your gifs?? without your joy?? without your blog?? without you?? No one knows! I am so happy to call you a mutual and friend and you always bring a smile to my face. Always!!đđ
@appleteeth - Liz đ No one is quite as normal about rhys darby as you and it a pleasure to watch! Speaking of pleasure.. your fic the slightest touch is an all time favorite of mine and i would be embarrassed to tell you how many times i have read it... you are one of my mutuals that i am baffled that they want to follow me.

@forestofsprites - Green my dear đYou might have gone from ofmd to be the supernatural provider of my dash but that does not stop you from being the kindest forest spirit i know. Your presence is calming in a way i can not explain and i am glad to have you and your love for meg here.đđ
@cheersmequeers - Kateđđ A big puzzle piece to bring my dash together. Always filling it with my favorite gay pirates and i love having you here. Always friendly and full of love.đđ

@blackbeardskneebrace - Miles my dear đ You make incredible art both the cute and amazing ofmd art but also the gorgeous historical art you post. Its a pleasure to see you talk about history but also about our beloved gay pirates. Your snoopy ofmd art will live in my heart forever and i think it might be healing me a bit. Maybe even watering my crops and clearing my skin! And those valentine ofmd arts from last year. I am 100 % gonna bring them back this February like beloved decorations you store in the attic. đđđ
@awkward-fallen-angel - Heather đ You are one of the sweetest people i have had the pleasure to come across. You bring a big excitement and attention to the things you like and it moves along to everyone near. I mean i have watched long critical role videos just because you spoke so warmly about them and i wanted to know what it meant. I love having you here. đđ
@mxmollusca - Mx đ (dont know your name so i am just calling you that) I mean you are an incredible writer. I have only managed to read ifwts once because i cried so much that i am scared to open it again because i might just never stop crying.

@cottoncandiescupcakes - Cupcake đ I love that you are always so excited over our boy the swede and its a pleasure to compare language with you. We can continue fighting if the swede belong to the dutch or the swedes but that is a pleasure!đđ
@mister-brightside - Andrea my dearđ. Your art is always perfect and whenever i see a picture of izzy giving the middle finger i think about you! Its your brand and its your picture now and no one can change that. You are sweet and caring and a lovely mutual to have. thank you!đđ
@merryfinches - Kylie đ What can i say more than that i ADORE your fanart. The colours the style the softness of it all is exactly what we all need in these times. Every single time it shows up on my dash it makes my heart grows softer and my love grow stronger! I love it so so much. đ
@ofmd-ann - Ann đ You glorious glorious gifmaker! Your gifs are always beautiful and these last days you have saved me with your wrecked edits. As a supplier of rhys darby gifs i love you forever. You are a hero love. đđ
@usersukuna - Bia đYou are a gif magician. Your gifs are perfect and you are also very kind and sweet and i am so glad i can call you a mutual! You light up tumblr like no one else and i am always happy to see you on my dash.đđ
If you are not in this list it does not mean that i dont love you or have forgotten about you it means that tumblr has put a limit to how many people you can tag which sucks. But if i follow you then it means i love and appreciate you. đđđ And you know what? We will make it through this hard and trying times of greedy streaming services putting an end to our gay pirates show. I love you all and you know what??
We will make it through as A CREW!
#i might have spent half my work day on this because i am sad and can not concentrate so please dont tell my boss#personal#my beloved mutuals#renew as a crew#i am just very filled with love for you all#for this fandom#đđđđđđđđ

Widow!Alicent Hightower x Fem!Reader
Summary: Ever since Alicent Hightowerâs husband died her life had changed exponentially. Itâs a hard thing, knowing what to do with freedom youâve never had. In her attempt to expand her horizons she reaches many bumps in the road she didnât realize existed, until she met you. Tags: mentions of death, sexuality crisis, struggling to accept change, heavy anxiety, eventual smut and a lot of self-healing. Authorâs Note: @ilikeitbetterangsty THIS IS FOR YOU BABESđ I really hope I did your request justice . Thank you so much for being an amazing mutual and beautiful person. Ps Iâve never been on a date, let alone a first date so Iâm sorry if that scene was a little awkward. ALSO dividers are made by @saradika !!!!
His death was expected, anticipated even, yet the day she woke up next to a cold corpse seared itself inside her brain forever. She should be mourning. She should have been more upset, shed more tears for her husband of nearly twenty years. Instead, all Alicent could feel was an odd relief, a weight being lifted from her shoulders. She was finally free.
However, what does someone do with freedom when theyâve never had it? She could do anything in the world, she had more than enough money for it. But what do free people do? Alicent had to read up on what widows were into. They travel, indulge in hobbies, and go out for brunch and gossip. The main factor in all of these is theyâre never alone.Â
Twenty years of marriage and four children and Alicent couldnât remember a time where she wasnât alone. She had no friends, too busy caring for a sick old man, children, and running a company. Alicent didnât want to be alone, she didnât want to die knowing she had never truly loved. There was nothing holding her back, no father pushing religious guilt, no husband taking her time, and no children to judge.
At first, she made no moves for change. She continued staying at home and running her life as she always did. Although now she spent more time fussing over her only child at home rather than Viserys. Unfortunately, Aegon, her eldest and most troubled child finally declared he was moving out. He also said she needed to get a life in the exact same sentence.Â
It was time to take a real look in the mirror at the woman Alicent Hightower had become. It was not the best feeling in the world. In the past she was happy, determined, and beautiful in some eyes. Now she was tired, a bit of a pushover and unbearably lonely. All she had done her whole life was serve other people, her father, her husband, her children and never herself. Alicent needed to change that before she died old and miserable.Â
There was another thing she needed to come to terms with. She never loved Viserys, she never loved any man for that matter. Marriage wasnât something she enjoyed but endured. Alicent wanted to love someone, which was something she never truly had. Except for once when she was young until she married her friendâs father. Maybe she didnât hate sex just who it was with. Maybe she was capable of love just not for men. Maybe it was time she started attempting to live her truth.
That was the final push she needed to do something. So, Alicent took a leap of faith after reading a pop news article and downloading HER. Itâs an app for lgbt dating, specifically lesbians⌠It still sounded like a dirty word even if she only said it in her head. There was still a twinge of guilt when she made her first match. Itâll pass, the article on women struggling being their true selves said so.Â
Twenty years of marriage and Alicent didnât even know how to flirt, let alone with a woman. The first woman she matched with was only slightly younger yet had no children. She called Alicent a milf, which is a compliment nowadays. It didnât go much farther, the lack of knowledge on slang really did not bode well with people.Â
Anyone younger than her wouldnât do, so she changed the settings. The second match was one that made her excited. From the outside they seemed to share the same values and she was a mother too. They went on a singular date that might not have been the greatest. Alicent was a little awkward, still too insecure about herself to initiate anything, and avoided the goodnight kiss that was offered. It didnât seem to bother the woman, which made her believe this could be the one. They could grow together, maybe even build a new life together. Alicent genuinely thought she found the perfect one. Until they ghosted her.Â
The app was deleted that same night. Maybe dating wasnât in the cards for her. It stung, surprisingly worse than when Viserys died. For a few days she sat in her house and sulked. She strictly ordered takeaway, and binge watched the housewives of Orange County. Braunwyn was without a doubt closeted, it was like looking in a mirror, a very fucked up mirror.Â
Alicent did a quick deep dive only to find out her suspicions were correct. Right now, Braunwyn was happily outed and living with her girlfriend⌠It was a mix of jealousy and hope. Someone just like her was living her dream life, which was unfair, but maybe it meant she could manage to live her dream too.Â
She finally decided to get off her ass and do something. She was a free woman, she could do whatever she wanted, she told herself as she did a rather intense spa routine. All of her expensive skincare products and fancy tools were being put to use today. Alicent actually changed out of her pajamas and into a nice dress she hadnât worn in ages. It was a black bodycon dress, the only one she owned. Very out of character for her but she was a free woman, she could wear whatever she wanted.
She was going to take herself on a date, to a fancy restaurant. Alicent arrived at the venue feeling nervous but excited at the same time. It was the first time she had gone here alone; the servers were quite surprised to say the least. As she was led to her table, she noticed the looks she was getting from some of the other diners. Maybe it was the dress, or maybe it was the fact she was alone for once.
It didnât matter, she told herself. âHey, is this seat taken?â Her head whipped to the side, âN-oh! No.â You let out a small laugh, âI'm only joking, I have my parents waiting for me. Howâve you been Ali?â The last person she expected to meet was Aegonâs old tutor. You hadnât seen each other in several years maybe. It wasnât a bad surprise, actually it was amazing to see you again. âIâve been great, better than ever! How are you?âÂ
âOh, Iâve been thriving! After quitting I went on a self-healing journey and havenât gone back.â Your smile reached from ear to ear, you were absolutely glowing in every sense of the word. Alicent was captivated, maybe a little nervous trying to find the right words to say. She hasnât felt this way since she was what? Fourteen and heavily in the closet. So, she did something way out of her comfort zone, a first step of sorts.Â
âIf youâre free, Iâd love for you to come over for dinner sometime and hear more about how youâve been.â You seemed shocked, cocking an eyebrow at her question. âIs the Alicent Hightower asking me on a date?â She froze, it didnât even cross her mind what she was actually asking.Â
So, she blurted out the first thing on her mind. "I...umâŚif you want it to be." You flashed a smile that was different from the one from earlier. You picked up a napkin, scribbling something on it. âLet me know the time and Iâll be there.â She let out a sigh of relief when you walked away, feeling as if she was going to burst any moment now. Her head was spinning, her heart was racing. She actually asked someone out, on a date no less.
She was nervous, it had been so long since anyone besides her immediate family came into her home. At least it was clean now that Aegon wasnât here to make messes everywhere he went. In her opinion the modern green color scheme looks great but maybe you hated green. Or maybe she was overthinking this.Â
Alicent hadnât ever really cooked besides a select few times the personal chef got sick. In her mind it would be more meaningful for her to cook something for the both of you. However, making homemade penne vodka was a lot harder than she thought.Â
She wanted it to be perfect, she wanted to impress you in every way. The dining table was set with a vase of roses, her best silverware, and very expensive wine she was saving for a special occasion. She even bought a new dress for this evening, a form-fitting silk one with flowing sleeves.
It was a few hours into her cooking when you rang the doorbell. Alicent took a deep breath, telling herself to remain calm and not make a fool of herself. It didn't stop her from tripping over the edge of the rug on the way to the front door. She jumped up, dusting off herself.
You were there, just as beautiful as you were earlier. "Hey!" Your smile was contagious, making her grin in return. You looked absolutely gorgeous, dressed in a white button-down shirt and black jeans. You pulled her into a hug, you smelled like strawberries, and a scent she could only describe as happiness.
"Itâs so good to see you!" She ushered you in, letting you take a seat while she went back to finish cooking. You looked around, taking everything in. âIt's still as big as I remember, though you definitely changed the decor.â She snickered, "Well it was in desperate need of a facelift, I just couldn't stand the red and black anymore."
Ali returned with a big bowl, carefully plating both of yours. "I didnât know you knew how to cook! I thought you had personal chefs for this kind of stuff.â She grinned proudly, "Well, I wanted to do something special for you tonight."Â
"Arenât you romantic," You smiled at her. You took a bite, letting out a pleasured sigh. "So good!" Her smile was practically radiant at your praise. You made small talk during dinner, talking about anything and everything. Catching up on whatâs happened in the few years you hadnât seen each other.Â
She told you about how Aegon is doing, how he has a girlfriend now. You told her about how he was the reason you inevitably quit teaching and decided to travel. You talked about your life, how you took the time to really get to know yourself, and how that was the best decision of your life. She vaguely talked about hers, only giving you bits and pieces.Â
What you did learn was that she was fucking hilarious, and so much more welcoming than other rich housewives youâve met. You didnât ask about the dead husband; it was pretty clear by the lack of a ring and her finally smiling.Â
Alicent listened to every word intently, her big brown eyes staring into yours. She used to always have a sad look inside them but now she was practically beaming. It might have been the wine flushing her cheeks, but you chose to believe it was because of you.
At some point you ended up on the couch watching housewives, at least pretending to. You were both still talking over the noise, slowly leaning into each other each time you laughed.Â
You leaned forward, brushing a stray hair from Alicentâs face. Your lips brushed together, âyouâre beautiful, you know.â Alicent let out a laugh, "You're too much." Her eyes closed, taking the lead and kissing you first.
 When your lips met her, it felt as if fireworks had gone off. Your lips were soft like peaches but tasted sweet like cherries. Your hands touched her face gently, leaving trails of electricity where your fingers were touching.Â
Her own hands gently tracing down your neck, shoulder, and side to rest on your hips. Alicentâs body sunk down on the mattress, letting you move on top of her to do as you pleased. When she broke the kiss to take a deep breath, you kissed down to her neck and jawline, sending vibrations throughout her. She made a sickly-sweet sound that made your ears tingle.Â
Her hands moved slowly, almost cautiously as she moved your shirt up to feel your bare skin. She delicately traced lines up and down the curves of your waist. Your sweet kisses trailed down her neck, chest, and slowly you lifted up the dress she was wearing. Moving to suckle at the skin around her core, worshiping her thighs.Â
Alicent let out a soft moan, curling her fingers into your hair. Her soft noises only encouraged you. Your fingers traced her folds, moving their way around the fabric. You looked up, watching her cheeks flush red in embarrassment. A simple nod was the encouragement you needed to continue.
Your lips kissed over the fabric, hearing her breathe become labored. Her fingers tugged lightly at your hair. You pulled down her underwear, moving it down to the end of her legs. It was your turn to blush, seeing how wet she was already.
Her hips twitched when you dragged a finger through her slit, your finger coming back glistening. You eased it inside of her, quickly finding the sweet spongy spot. Her back arched as you moved your finger, soon another one joining. Your tongue sucked at her clit, moving in circles.
Alicent bucked her hips into your hand, her moans filling the air. Her eyes were shut as you made her legs shake. Your tongue moved faster, hearing her sweet cries. She pulled your hair, pressing your mouth harder against her. Her walls tighten around your fingers, letting you know she was close.
Alicent shuddered, gripping your hair harder as she came. Her back arched off the couch, her eyes rolling to the back of her head. It was the most beautiful thing you had ever seen. Her body finally relaxed, laying on the couch. Her eyes closed, a blissful smile on her lips.
You crawled up, leaning over her. You brushed her hair behind her ear, gazing into her brown eyes. They were still sparkling, like two polished stones. Alicent slowly moved her hands down your back, lifting your shirt over your head. She sat up, kissing you softly.Â
Her hand slowly moved down, grasping your thighs and opening them. Her kisses trailed down your neck, breasts, and stomach. You let out a small noise as she rubbed you through your pants. Her kisses got hungrier as she undid your belt and pulled down everything that covered you.
You let out a squeal of surprise, feeling her pull you on top. Your cheeks flushed red, as she angled your cunt above her mouth. Alicent was precise, her mouth sucking at you gently. Her hands pressed against your hips, keeping you in place.
Your fingers threaded into her hair, holding her face to your cunt. She flicked her tongue against you, moving it in circles. Her hands moved up to squeeze your ass. You grinded against her face, your juices coating her chin and the couch. Alicent hummed against you, the vibrations sending shockwaves through you.
Her fingers pressed into you, curling up to prod at your sweet spot. She let out a purring noise, making you move your hips faster. Your breath hitched as she moved her fingers faster, sucking at you with a new intensity. Her tongue moved quickly, lapping up all the juices coming from you.
Your thighs quivered as you came, your voice shaking as you did. Alicent kept going, eating you out until she was satisfied. Your legs gave out, dropping you in a pile on top of her. You laid there, letting her wrap her arms around you as you caught your breath.Â
"Did I do good?" You laughed, leaning forward to kiss her. "You were amazing,â you peppered kisses on her face, eliciting the cutest giggles youâve ever heard. You rested your head on her chest, listening to her heartbeat. Her fingers played with your hair as you both laid there, tangled in each other's arms.
Last night had been one of the most out of character nights of Alicentâs life. She never invited someone over, let alone hooked up with someone. It was new, it was exciting, it was also borderline terrifying. Now that she was alone again her thoughts could once again consume her.Â
You texted her back, at the very least you werenât ghosting her. That eased the part of her that was afraid the sex was so bad you would never speak to her again. But now there were other things that bothered her. Your question, to be more specific. âWould you want to be my girlfriend?âÂ
It was too soon to do anything drastic, like a real relationship. Did she want that? The idea of being in a relationship with you was something that sounded nice in her head, But would it be good in reality. Not only was she freshly widowed as well as struggling to come to terms with her sexuality. By now, she should be over caring about what other people thought⌠She wasnât over it in the slightest.Â
There was still this guilt and overwhelming anxiety that was holding her back, the same things that held her back her entire life. Alicent laid in her bed, trying to figure out how to answer your text... âIâm not sure if Iâm ready, yet.â She wanted to say more, but her thoughts were quickly turning into a jumbled mess.Â
âI used to tutor Aegon in mathematics⌠Iâm very patient;)â Alicent rolled her eyes at the winky face, feeling the corners of her mouth twitch into a smile. âButâŚÂ I bought two tickets to the Bahamas last week⌠and my mom canceled so thereâs an opening.â Her fingers hovered over the screen, she had never been to the Bahamas before.Â
To be fair, she had never been anywhere but home. Alicent wasnât one to drop everything and go on vacationâŚÂ
You made her want to.
Her thumb hovered over the send button for a moment.
Why was this so difficult?
She was free now; she could leave anytime she wanted.
So why did she keep waiting?
She could just let her phone fall out of her hand and pretend she didnât see the text.
It took everything in her power to hit send, âIâd love too:)âÂ
You had been talking to each other every day for weeks. Youâve gone on several more âdates,â which all ended in someoneâs bedroom. She hadnât ever felt this happy, but right now she was freaking the f out. She might have under-packed or maybe over packed her suitcase. What if the swimsuit didnât fit like it did in the store? Should she have brought snacks? What if she forgot to lock the house?Â
The airport was crowded to the point it made everything feel excruciatingly hot. Maybe it was her anxiety that was making her hot. Alicent glanced around at everyone, a million scenarios running through her head. There was no reason for her to be this nervous. Except there were a thousand reasons, sheâs never left the country, the plane could crash, and maybe you wouldnât show up.Â
The last one wasnât realistic. You promised to be waiting at the terminal. You always kept your promises, so she had no reason to worry. But what if you changed your mind? What if the flight was canceled? Or you got sick and didn't feel up to flying.
Was her mind just coming up with different scenarios so she wouldnât get on the plane? Maybe she should turn around and go home. No, she was free now, she was finally over all the bad that happened. So, there was no reason to not get on the plane.
She had been so caught up in her own thoughts she didn't realize they called her boarding group. She slowly made her way to the gate, getting in the very back of the line. Alicent glanced around the terminal, no sign of you anywhere. She started picking at her fingers, a bad habit. When she was younger, she used to dig at them until they bled.Â
The line moved at an excruciatingly slow pace. Every second felt like an hour and every step felt like a mile. However, she had made it to her seat on the plane in one piece. She was able to get a window seat, something she was thankful for. At least if something bad happened Alicent could watch the plane crash into the waves.
You still hadnât shown up and her heart rate showed no signs of going down. She could turn back right now, walk off this plane like nothing happened. She could go back to her old life, tucked away safely in her home. She could stop taking risks, what was she even trying to prove? There were thousands of excuses to turn back, and she was using them all.Â
By letting this plane take off it meant a new beginning, a real one. The real first step, proof she was living differently and for herself. That scared her, did she even deserve to live for herself? What was her worth if she wasnât serving someone else? Her fingers dug deeper into the bed of her nails; this was a stupid fucking idea.Â
Alicent heard the flight attendant preparing to close the doors, She glanced down at her leg, preparing to jump out of this seat and run out the door.Â
Back home.
Back to safety.
Back to what she was used to.Â
âHey! Sorry I took so long I was sat in the wrong seat,â your voice was soft and sweet like honey. Alicent turned around, staring into your eyes. You were gorgeous, to the point it made her temporarily forget what was going on in her head. "You made it," she spoke breathlessly, realizing she had been holding her breath the entire time.Â
âI wouldnât miss going on a trip with you for the world.â You smiled at her, intertwining your fingers with her own. A sense of calm washed over her, like the waves hitting the sand in the early morning. She finally let herself settle back into the seat, letting her eyes flutter close.
This was okay.
She could do this.
This is freedom.Â
Alicent Hightower was finally living,Â
For herself.

stevetony sex pollen fic recs
for @fluffystevefest day 5: aphrodisiac đ
Aphrodisiac by @kandisheek
Steve gets hit with some sort of sex pollen. It must be the universe's idea of a joke to let Captain America die from horniness and make Tony his only chance at survival.
Simple Biology by @stark---contrast
âGod, I'm sweating bullets in this thing,â Tony said, already unzipping his undersuit. âItâs not just me, right? It feels like a sauna in here.â And Steve's resolve crumbled by each inch of sweat-slick skin that was revealed.
Or, Tony gets hit by sex pollen. Fortunately, Steve is there to help him out.
the thorn in his side by @fohatic (or @moon-language-0 until justice is served)
It had been there from the beginning. There was no end to it, that mutual wanting between themâforever unresolvedâthat had grown so terribly soft and unbearably romantic with age...
But there was an unspoken rule between them, as well: an understanding that they could never act on it.
That is, until an alien parasite's brood nest gets violently dislodged from its Chitauri Leviathan host during the Battle of New York, dispersing its contents directly over two time-jumping tourists who are very much in the wrong place and the wrong timeline.
All the Love You Hold and Hide by Mireille
On a mission, Steve triggers a booby trap that turns out to be a skeevy sex curse, of the "fuck or die" variety.
Tony volunteers as tribute.
Exposed by @festiveferret @sirsapling
Of all the people Steve could be stuck with while this agonizing drug surged through him, of course, it had to be Tony Stark.
I Want to Hurt You by @festiveferret
How could Steve ever look Tony in the eye again? He loved Tony, so desperately, but he didn't know how to come back from this. He didn't know how many apologies would be enough to make up for what he'd done.
He could still feel Tony's soft skin giving to dark bruises under his fingers.
Side Effects by @elimymoons
"So what I'd like to propose," Tony continued on, "is for you to let me help you out a little, yeah? We'll work off some of this energy, some of this adrenaline, and you don't have to worry about hurting yourself anymore, okay?"
Steve's in a bit of trouble. Tony wants to help him out. Sexily.
Emergency Contact by @valdomarx
Steve has been exposed to sex pollen, and for some reason Tony is the person who's been called in to assist him.
Tony knows that he can't take advantage of Steve in this desperate state, but it's awfully hard to remember that when Steve is rubbing up against him and describing all of his deepest fantasies in excruciating detail.
Double Blind by @loftyperch
Steve signs up for a drug trial. Naughty side effects ensue.
Long Distance Relationship by @cookinguptales
So what do you do when your boyfriend gets sex pollened and you're thousands of miles away? The correct answer here is Extremis sex. Obviously.
Messes We Make by @navaan
Commander Rogers locks himself in his office with a sex-pollend Tony, he's not exactly back on speaking terms with. Things get out of hand.
calling (screaming) your name by orphan_account
in which the whole team gets vapored during battle and it affects everyone differently. Tony finds out, first-hand, how it affects Steve.
Dishonest John's Special Rates by @meh-guh
Steve runs afoul of sex pollen and Tony reaps the benefit
honey from your hive by @meidui
"Steve, stop that," Tony says, sounding strangled as his grip tightens and Steve stops, letting Tony grab his face and tilt him up. "You're kind of scaring the crap out of me. What is it? What's going on with you?"
"We blew up the lab," Steve manages, and something dawns on Tony's face. "Everyone had a reaction 'cept me. Think 'm having it now."

ACOTAR tag game đ
thanks for tagging me @mathiwrites ! I don't normally do these even when tagged because i never know who to tag, a lot of times everyone i think of is already tagged LOL, but i figured id start today!
I don't think I've seen one around, and figured this might be fun to do!
Answer the questions below & tag whoever you want, or make it an open tag!!
Who's your favourite ACOTAR character?
My boy tamlin!!
Who's your least favourite character?
Hm....hmmmm...oh Amren for sure.
Say something nice about your least favourite character.
She has a cool character concept and i thought it was really sweet and endearing when she gave feyre the bracelet (necklace?) to help her get through the Prison trip without panicking
Who's your favourite High Lord? (If you picked one for your fav character, then who's your second fav!)
Oooh hm not to be a copycat but I loved tarquin from the moment he was introduced, he was an instant fav and i was kind of sad that he didn't have more involvement later on that didn't have to do with the whole feyre and rhys betraying his trust thing
Favourite MINOR character?
ooh i dont know if this is minor enough but i've come to really like jurian. i didn't really have much of an opinion on him for most of the series and then for some reason in silver flames when he was in it for like 2 seconds i was like wait a minute why haven't i been more into this guy he kinda fucks
Favourite ship? (Crackships included!)
tamsand by far. though azris is becoming a close second.
Favourite court and why?
well i loved the spring court aesthetic from the first book, but at this point in the series I think I'd say maybe actually dawn. it just sounded so pretty, and i think it would be one of the subtler, less overwhelming courts while still being awe-inspiring.
Make up a brand new court RIGHT NOW, NO PREP JUST VIBES.
oh shoot um okay court of clouds?? people who specialize in wind manipulation, likely populated by a race related to the Peregryns or Drakon's race? an actual cloud court like in the sky could be a vibe I think. perhaps it would be more removed from the politics of prythian--they'd still have a High Lord, but maybe it would be more of a military government or something.
What relationship would you have wanted to see more of in the books?
oh wow i mean i am always here for more rhys and tamlin content obviously, but i would have also loved to see more of like stories and stuff about the sentries from the spring court that went over the wall, like Andras. andras and lucien's relationship in particular would be one I would have liked to know more about. I also really want to see Azriel and his mom.
What's your unpopular opinion?
god what ISN'T my unpopular opinion. hm. i think feyre's whole reasoning for wanting a baby out of seemingly nowhere is dumb. like i get it, yolo, life can be cut short, but like i really do not feel like she picked a good time to have a baby, nor do i think she is remotely ready to be a mother. when she realized she wanted kids in acofas, it wasn't a strong enough argument for me to actually like get behind her decision.
What's your favourite headcanon/fan canon?
omg i have so many I literally started a list lol. the first one on it is kind of silly, it's that Helion is actually the faerie romance author sellyn drake that nesta, emerie, and gwyn like
If you were swept away to Prythian, what's ONE thing you would want to do?
go to a festival! not necessarily something as crazy as calanmai, but i would love to go to some sort of celebration. maybe starfall?
If you could have ONE faerie ability seen in the books, which would it be?
shapeshifting without a doubt
thanks again for the tag! ill tag @cheap-spirits @achaotichuman @thedickgraysons @wingsdippedingold @hugevanserrass @lady-of-sevenwaters @the-darkestminds @msbrownwithacrown @tamlinsnailtech and anyone else who wants to contribute!! if were mutuals and i didnt tag u im sorry i tried to think of as many as possible LOL but yeah definitely feel free to contribute if you want to! this was fun

When you call my name, do you think Iâll come running?
CHAPTER 8 [ The Battle Of The Village : Good vs Evil ]
{Finale Chapters coming this winter}
With the cold comes the hurtful memories, the pain, anger âŚ.. but in the midst of it blooms peaceâŚâŚ
In a village where shadows crawl and darkness devours innocent souls, good will riseânot with the force of magic or the fall of the lords, but with hearts unyielding in the face of fear. For it is not the sharpness of the sword nor the roar of the storm that decides the war, but the quiet, steadfast flame of loveâunseen by many, unbroken by despair and hope. In the end, it is love that outlasts the night of this battle, binding the shattered and the lost, not with force, but with hope that endures beyond even death itself. And so, even when the world trembles beneath evilâs grasp, remember: victory belongs not to those who fight hardest, but to those who love deepestâŚâŚ
This Christmas⌠new character and new entailed backstory.
Stefania and rosa walk up to you from behind and place a map on the table. Stefania sighs as a look of fear moves across her face but she speaks up when Rosa gives her a look of urgency.
â we found a way to get to mother Mirandaâs power base, if weâre gonna do this we need to do it togetherâ she says looking over at Rosa.
â itâs really riskyâthe entire mission is, and if we do thisâŚ. If we fight against her and the black gods magic we may not come backâŚ..â Rosa whispers.
â Iâm doing it for herâ you say, because itâs the truth, youâre doing this to save AlcinaâŚâŚ because this winter she has everything to lose but sheâs not a monster.
A/N: I wanna give my deepest appreciation to those who came all this way from chapter 1 right here to this chapter finale, thank you to the ones whoâve been here since day 1, I know weâre all heartbroken but good things must come to an endđĽš, Iâm so thankful for all of you whoâve shown your utmost support towards this series it meant the world to me and for those who loved the relationship between Alcina and the reader, Iâm sorry this has to be the final chapter but I will be working on other series like this with different characters and maybe some other ones with lady D, Iâm planning to do a âlove can be a killerâ PT 2 and see how that goes this is not the end guys I can always do backstories and bonus chapters now and then. But really thank you all so much especially @willalove75 because the inspiration came from her chaptered lady D series and just her in general so thank you to her and her never ending support, and also to all my other mutuals like @m1lfsh4ke , @ilovehugslikealotalot who have been nothing but kind and have showed love and compassion. And to the entire tag list persons like : @ilovehugslikealotalot @willalovexx @milkiedimitrescu @willowshadenox @enchantressb @mositblobfish @nclgsticore @vampire-s61914 @snkskyler15 @milkkyshakeez @luisa323 especially Luisa, thank you for taking your time out to read this fanfic this sometimes i honestly didnât wanna post because I thought no one would read or it would be cringeđ but you guys always made such funny comments and showed so much enthusiasm so I wanna say thank you again this series wouldnât have been possible without your continuous support and love <3.
And I know i usually end with my signature on all my posts like - Sincerely, The Mother Of Smut. But today Iâm - Sincerely Your Best Friend. â¨đ

hi there chris! since the new year is approaching rapidly, i wanted to ask my favorite creators (that includes you! i love your art!) how they look back on their 2023 tumblr year and which blogs made them happy to be here. i am very happy to follow you and hope you'll have a great 2024! đ
Hiiii omg this is so sweet and means a lot to me, thank you! đĽşđ
I've been meaning to do a little end-of-the-year shoutout/love post for some of my favorite blogs, so I hope you don't mind if I use your ask as the perfect excuse!
I've had many fun years on tumblr, but this one has been extra special. Falling into the Good Omens fandom and meeting all of you amazing people has made this year so so SO much better than it otherwise would have been, so here are some special shoutouts (apologies, I'm sure this will get long, things like this tend to get away from me, so I'll put it under a read-more)
@majortomyourcurcuitsdead SASHA can you believe I was going to just send you an anon telling you that I think you're cool and leave it at that. Can you believe it. WELL thank Somebody you had your anon turned off and I had to expose myself in your dms because it feels like we just instantly connected about like 20 different things and haven't stopped talking since sskjdfhs anyway I'm so happy I met you you're so fun and so clever and so talented and so enthusiastic and I've only known you for like. What 2 months?? Ish? But I already love you so much <3
@lineffability !!! Line you are so *struggles to find words* you're just great is what you are okay. I feel like you are what happens when somebody takes a big cup and puts six shots of love, chaos, sunshine, talent, fun, and enthusiasm into it, generously sprinkles intelligence on top and gives it a good stir. I don't even remember how or when or why we started talking tbh? But your creativity is so inspiring, and some of my favorite tumblr-moments of this year have been 'yes-and'ing with you about one thing or another in a very >:3 manner hahah so! my point is! i love you lots <3
@dontbotheraziraphale Teeeedddd you're wonderful, I vented at you one time and then we talked for like 2 hours and at the end of that 1 conversation I already considered you a friend - and not just in that "tumblr mutuals who talk 1 time are my friends" kind of way but like. Genuinely. You're so kind and so fun and every time we talk it's such a good time ily a lot my bro my buddy my man <3
@crikey01 Tallulah HI I also completely forgot how we started talking but I remember connecting the dots that you were the one who painted those INSANE black and white and gold oil paintings and the way my jaw dropped like?? BRO you're so talented I admire you so much! And I love that we bonded over stopping each other from masochistically checking certain peoples' blogs... đ Anyway you're so sweet and fun and ily lots <3
---
The list could probably go on but you four are the people I've talked to most on here and you're the tumblr chat boxes I never close but always just minimize and y'all better see this as the ultimate internet declaration of affection that it Clearly is >:D đ
---
And here are some more shout-outs because I just HAVE to.
Apologies, I know I've already tagged a bunch of you recently in a mutuals appreciation post but. This is my official thank-you-for-2023 post and I just have a lot of love for you all okay sorry feel free to ignore this <3
@rowan-ashtree (i'll text you back soon I promise I'm sorry I just haven't had the brain-space recently ssjkdfh) @crawley-fell (we've never talked but i love you from afar :')) @ineffabildaddy @llokilaufeyson @actual-changeling @saryasy @hyperfocusthusly @beccibarnes @rainbowcrowley @thesherrinfordfacility @goodoldfashionednightingale @wibbly-wobbly-blog @highlyillogicalandroid (i see your data obsession and i agree <3) @tortugay @foolishlovers @stargazing-crowley @gingiekittycat @weasleywrinkles @bildads-shoes @finleycannotdraw @bowtiepastabitch @heytherefluffy @samwwise @nocturnal-birb @athousandyearstime @angelsdiningattheritz @most-normal-eccles-cake-ignorer @jedthesecretdreamer @wraithee @hydrangeadangea @southfarthing @frodo-baggins @mobius-m-mobius
