(warren lipka x reader) where warren comes back to you for the wrong reasons

here's part 2!

--

the hardwood floors creaked underneath your feet as you carefully made your way downstairs. it was midnight, and warren insisted on coming over despite the fact your parents were home. you knew it was a dumb fucking idea to let him in, especially since he had been ghosting you lately. but the risk was enticing, and despite everything, you missed him like crazy.

as you approached the glass sliding door leading out to your yard, you noticed a figure moving in the dark over the fence. your eyes were still adjusting to the night, but you could clearly see warren's foot get caught on the wood before he tumbled into the bushes below.

"idiot" you teased, smiling wide as he ascended the porch steps, brushing himself off.

"hey- it's not as easy as it looks okay? give me a break..." warren playfully whined. he brought you into a gentle embrace for a few moments, and you revelled in the feeling of being in his arms once again.

"there's an entrance through the fence, i could've just let you in you know.." you said softly.

"and you're telling me this now instead of when i called?"

"i thought it would be funny to try and watch you get in." you grinned.

"you bitch" he laughed, rubbing your sides. "and what if i got seriously fuckin' hurt or something?"

you shrugged, locking eyes with him. "i guess we'll never know..."

warren smiled and leaned in, briefly pressing his lips to yours. you loved it. how could you not be obsessed with him?

"i missed you... i was worried about you..." you breathed. it drove you crazy when he stopped showing up on campus, missing his practices and games, not returning your calls. you feared he did something stupid and got himself in serious trouble. "you're a dick"

his expression turned remorseful. "i know.. i'm sorry babe.. i should've called.."

"oh shit- is that an apology i hear? from warren lipka? i'm honored" you joked. in all honesty you were surprised. no lame excuses? no arguing? this was kind of weirdly disappointing--you had prepared for a bigger confrontation.

"what can i say? i'm a changed man"

you knew he was joking but part of you wondered if there was any truth to the statement. maybe, in some miraculous way, he actually worked on himself?

pushing the thought away, you took warren's hand in yours and quietly led him up the stairs. you made it halfway down the hall before you heard the door to your parents bedroom open. in a panic, you pushed warren into your room, following behind him. if your dad knew he was here...

you'd rather not think about what would happen.

"ow-? you're stronger than you look-" warren chuckled. he always loved sneaking around with you. you figured it fed his compulsion for excitement, so you didn't have problem with it if it meant he wasn't out doing crazier shit.

you pressed your ear to the door, listening for footsteps, but you no longer heard them. once you felt it was safe, you let out a sigh of relief and turned around.

"fuck that was scary... now where were we?" you laughed breathlessly, taking off your top and practically jumping onto warren.

--

you woke up in the middle of the night, feeling thirsty, and went to get a drink of water. warren was gone, which made you a bit upset, but you understood the need to avoid getting caught, especially after he had cussed your dad out the last time they spoke.

while in the kitchen, you heard a thud coming from your father's study. at first, you chalked it up to your imagination due to your tiredness. but then it happened again.

was your father awake?

curious, you decided to check the sound out, the sound of faint whispering getting louder as you neared the door. your foot caused creak in the floor, and the whispering stopped abruptly.

a couple seconds passed and, to your surprise, warren emerged from the room, with an odd expression on his face.

"hey, y/n.."

"warren?- you scared the shit out of me!" you whispered sharply, hitting his arm. "what the hell are you doing?!"

"well uh- i was looking for a bathroom-“

"downstairs?"

"i was on my way out; i wasn't gonna come back upstairs-" he avoided making eye contact and suddenly you remembered who you were dealing with. the liar, the cheater. you reached for the door but warren quickly covered your mouth and pinned you to the wall. in the scuffle, your head hit the corner of doorframe hard and you let out a strangled groan.

"fuck! fuck...! i'm so sorry," warren apologized, dragging you into the study. inside, two others dressed in black with ski masks stood, looking between you and warren. they all began to argue frantically, with warren being the loudest.

"shut the fuck up- shut the fuck up! i'll fucking handle this just go!"

you tried to focus on what was happening, but your eyelids grew heavy, and you felt your body losing control. the last thing you noticed was the centerpiece of the study, the valuable monet painting, had been removed from the wall.

i'll never be pretty. it's not even about my bumpy skin and hefty weight. it's my messy room without decorations because i can't afford the money or the time. it's my hand-me-down clothes because my mother told me to just take them and give it a try. it's my chinese lunches nothing like your takeaways. it's my foreign tongue that's strange. and it's not a pretty language like your french and italian that boys say on their phones to their mothers and you all swoon like they're the only ones who can do it. it's the old yellow waitresses in restaurants with yellowed lamps. and it's my thinning purse. my thinning lips. the dirt in my living room. the spider on the door.

*wakes up super groggily at 3pm* hey why do people think it's "cool" that moash has a singer name, it's literally like a white girl being named Dakota. Not inherently problematic but absolutely a byproduct of colonialism

Lately, I've been feeling really inadequate about my smut. Like... I don't feel as if it's good enough. I want it to turn people on, I want people to read it and reach for a glass of ice water, lol Figuratively. But, I just don't feel like I've been doing a good job with it, like maybe some of my partners may not be happy with it but aren't actually saying anything.

Anyway, this is stupid to even think about. Sorry.

I think I stopped feeling silly about how much Sleep Token has influenced how much I want to pick back up my practice (and honestly my motivation to practice) yesterday when I was on a binge of Chaotic Witch Aunts older videos and found out they had a small section of their alter dedicated to Florence Welch, and how they talked about how much Florence + the Machine influenced their witchcraft, and it was honestly very freeing lmao.

The urge to make my AU an actual fic or comic is so strong but alas my brain can only think of random little very plot heavy moments that I can’t coherently do anything with :/

Like I literally am just replaying scenes over and over and over again and can’t do anything bc I have zero ideas on how to get to that point ._.

(Literally no clue why I’m posting this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

a really close friend of my family passed away the other day. close to where i would send school pics of my kids, at their request. they consider my kids on the same level as their great-grand kids. i'd lost touch with them, personally, but my mom kept me up-to-date with how they were.

like i legit cried when mom told me he'd passed. and i feel really bad that i won't be able to go to the viewing/funeral. i've asked my mom to give the wife my love/condolences; i feel like i should send a card (with most recent kids pics). otoh i feel like it won't be enough to show how much i respected him and love them both.

i'm probably overthinking the whole thing. and will send a card (she's of the generation that would expect/appreciate it). but it's going to weigh on my heart for a while.

my mood is meh now, thanks

Comments versus Bookmarks on AO3

A few people seemed appreciative of my post about how to use AO3's Marked for Later feature, so I thought I'd follow up with another tip about comments versus bookmarks. As part of the amazing @justleaveacommentfest I noticed a few people mentioned leaving nice comments in bookmarks, and I thought it might help to have a little info about how comments are different from bookmarks, and why it's better to send a comment if you want to make an author happy or make fandom friends or have an interesting discussion.

Bookmarks *are* viewable by everyone, unless you make them private. If you plan to say anything negative in your bookmark, please make it private. It's not really the flip side, however, that leaving positive statements in your bookmarks will reach the author, though.

Most authors are alerted when they get new comments, either through their dashboard or via email if they choose, or both. Yay! Serotonin boost, and also the ability to reply back and start a conversation! Plus, readers can have great discussions with each *other* in the comments section of a fic! If you're super into a fic you can read comments on the chapter even years later, and sometimes find the author adding additional thoughts or discussing their thought process while writing! It's like DVD extras for fanfic! (Do kids these days know what DVD extras are any more? Damned if I know).

You don't really know, as an author, when someone bookmarks one of your fics. Some authors, particularly when they are feeling low (cough cough) may also look at bookmarks to see if there are nice things there. This would basically just involve clicking on the bookmarks for each of your fics individually to see if there's anything a.) new and b.) nice in them.

This is an act of desperation. It's not really a wise thing to do, as 99% of bookmarks have no comments, or just list the title and author in fear of the fic being deleted some day and not knowing what you're missing. Even worse, if you, as an author, get desperate enough to cruise your bookmarks, you are as likely to see someone say something like "Meh" or "This got boring so I stopped reading at Chapter 5" or "Too many werewolves 3/10" in a werewolf fic than you are to see a nice compliment.

So, if you loved a fic and want to memorialize your love in a bookmark, be an extra super-duper sweetheart and cut and paste that into a comment for the author! Make the AO3 environment enriching for both authors and fellow readers in the comments section, and protect your friendly local author by not providing intermittent positive reinforcement for the negative behavior of scrolling through bookmarks!

I still recommend bookmarking fics. Bookmark those favorite fics you want to come back and read later, or use bookmarks to leave yourself little reminders if they are nice or in private bookmarks if they are not nice. Bookmark good resources, like how to code things in html or how to use AO3 filters most effectively. Find awesome new things to read by looking through the bookmarks of your favorite authors, because if you vibe with someone's writing you may also vibe with their favorite fics to read!

Okk so this is a recording from over a month ago. The question is wtf was I doing?? My heart is slamming like crazy in the beginning and I'm trying to think of what for, my possible guess is I was experimenting with pressure (since this was around the time I was trying it out) maybe I was getting a reaction I wanted recorded. I might have tried pushes too later or something. I'm only really posting this for the thing in the beginning. Also, I need to figure out what to do for future vids, I went through all my recordings I had and just deleted them because I just felt kinda meh abt em.

I wanna make better content, idk what to do or what people want, I could post like a visible hb thing of my chest, but it feels so personal to me idk if I'm comfortable just yet, though I think I'm getting better at warming up, so one day for sure.

If anyone is open to making recs I could try em out and see, I don't have anything to post from my archive anymore so I'll need stuff lol
