They already knows [Rebuild of Evangelion, Ayanami Rei/Shikinami Asuka Langley]
Read on Ao3
Read on Squidgeworld
Read here on tumblr:
I'm Asuka. I've been Rei's partner for years. I'm madly in love with her but I haven't told her I'm non-binary. I'm afraid it would put an end to our relationship. Yet I can't hide it from her forever. So, over a meal, I plan to tell her my gender identity but Rei interrupts me.
âI already know, dear Asuka. I am also non-binary.â
âHOW?â
I couldn't help but raise my voice. I've been worried about losing sie all this time and hir is non-binary! Then I started laughing.
âIs everything all right?â My lover asks.
âYes, yes, everything's ok. It's just... ironic, don't you think so?â
Rei laughs as well. The rest of the meal is spent in good spirits.

Dick: Okay, I think weâre gonna have to do âGood Cop, Bad Copâ.
Jason: Yeah. Itâs tropey but it works.
Dick: Exactly. Wanna flip for Bad Cop?
Jason: Youâre kidding.
Dick: Or we could play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock?
Jason: Dude, I canât be Good Cop. I kill people, remember? You canât kill people and be Good Cop.
Dick: Those were traffickers and mob lieutenants. These are Rogue goons.
Jason: What, like that matters?
Dick: Yes, that matters. They donât care that you took out some mobsters. They care that you revived the Joker after beating him to death and then let him go.
Jason: I didnât revive him, I just didnât let him die yet! And I didnât let him go either! That was Batman! I was gonna kill the psycho!
Dick: Yeah, well, you still kept him alive and the goons probably know it. Just like they know I was happy to leave him dead when I killed him.
Jason: What?
Dick: You heard me.
Jason: You�
Dick: Killed the Joker? Yes. I thought he killed Timmy and then when I confronted him, he said your name andâŠI didnât stop hitting him until he choked on his own blood.
Jason: ThenâŠhow is he still alive?
Dick: Batman revived him.
Jason Fucking what?
Dick: Yeah.
Jason: Well, now I definitely canât be Good Cop. Iâm way to pissed for that shit.
Dick: Well, so am I.
Jason: Fuck.
Dick: Fuck.
Jason: So now whadda we do? Try to beat it outta him?
Dick: No, he'll lock down. That's why I suggested "Good Cop, Bad Cop" to begin with.
Jason: So we need a Good Cop.
Dick: Okay, Iâm gonna call Timmy and see if he can come play Good Cop.
Jason: Good plan.
Dick [talking into a secure (& Batman-proof) phone]: Hey, Robin, you busy?
Tim [on speakerphone]: Kinda, yeah. Whatâs going on? You sound weird.
Dick: Hood and I need to get some intel from a goon, and weâre thinking âGood Cop, Bad Copâ is the way to go but neither of us can pull off Good Cop right now.
Tim: Shit. Iâm in Bangkok right now-
Jason: The fuck are you doing in Bangkok?
Tim: Speedy needed help with a thing.
Dick: In Bangkok?
Tim: No. Sheâs in Korea.
Jason: So, again, why the fuck are you in Bangkok?
Tim: Because Lady Shivaâs here and sheâs perfect for what Speedy needs, so Iâm calling in a favor she owes me.
Dick: Youâre calling in a favor from Lady Shiva because Speedy needs help with a thing in Korea.
Tim: Yep. You got it.
Dick: No, thatâs- You say that like it doesnât require any further-
Tim: Can you hang on for a second? Thereâs an assassin tailing me.
Dick: Shit. Do you need us to send someone out there?
Jason; Starfire should be done with her thing by now. She's not on your shit list, right?
Tim: No, I like Kori. But Iâm good now. My assassin got the other assassin.
Dick: You have an assassin?
Tim: Kinda? She defected from the League of Assassins and is up for hire but she always gives me priority since she feels like she owes me a life-debt.
Dick: Again, you sound like you think that statement doesnât require any further explanation.
Jason: So you hired your assassin buddy to kill the other assassin?
Tim: What? No. Of course not. She didnât kill him. Weâll question him later. She never kills on my jobs since she knows I donât like it.
Dick: What about other jobs?
Tim: Thatâs her business. We arenât all control freaks, you know.
Dick: Thatâs-
Jason: Thatâs good, Little Red. Good that you have healthy boundaries.
Dick: I have healthy boundaries.
Jason: Sure you do.
Tim: Okay, youâre gonna have to argue that on your own. Iâm supposed to help my friends out with something after I get Shiva to help Speedy, but I have to handle this interrogation first. So how about I just send my friends the twenty-five plans I drew up and ask Bunker if he minds helping you out before he joins us? He should be able to get inside Gotham in less than ten minutes.
Jason: Oh, Bunkerâs perfect for Good Cop.
Tim: Right? Theyâll spill everything and probably give him their grandmaâs secret family recipes on top of it.
Dick: Wait. Back it up. You have twenty-five plans drawn up? What are you guys up against?
Tim: Nothing we canât handle. Young Justice figures, why even bother with a plan B if you arenât gonna cover the whole alphabet?
Jason: Thereâs twenty-six letters in the alphabet, Little Red.
Tim: Yeah, but plan Z is always the same, so we donât bother listing it anymore.
Dick: Is it âget an adultâ?
Tim: Of course not.
Jason: When you were a Teen Titan, how often did you call in an adult when you probably should have?
Dick: Okay, thatâs fair.
Jason: So whatâs plan Z?
Tim: âFuck it, we ballâ.
Dick: Thatâs not a pl-
Jason: Thatâs perfect. I love it.
Dick: No. Donât encourage him.
Tim: Thanks, Red. So do you want me to ask Bunker about helping you? Iâm kinda on a time crunch now.
Jason: Yes, please.
Tim: Okay. Heâs on the way. Is there anything else?
Dick: Whe-
Jason: No, weâre good. Have fun storming the castle!
Tim: âKay, bye!
Jason: Bye!
Dick: The fuck-
Jason: Bunker and I can handle the interrogation here and Timmy and his assassin friend are gonna be busy with an interrogation there for a bit. If you take off now, you can probably catch up with him and go all big brother like youâre dying to.
Dick: You sure?
Jason: Yeah, Iâm sure me and Bunker can handle this asshole.
Dick: Thank you.
Jason: Yeah, well, you did kill the Joker. Thatâs gotta count for something, right?
Dick: Iâll tell you all about it after I make sure Timmy doesnât get himself killed or lose another organ.
Jason: Iâll hold you to- Timmy lost an organ?
Dick [already calling Kori to get him to Tim]: Later. Iâm on a time crunch now!
Jason: Iâm holding you to that!
Jason: *sighs* No one in this family knows how to share.

'nothing' 'you sure?' 'mhmm' of course, he doesnt believe you but shrugs it off, used to your silliness

âŠâĄâŠ Rainy Mornings âŠâĄâŠ
Katakuri x Fem!Reader [AO3 Link] Description: On a cozy, rainy morning, you and Katakuri spend some time together in bed. Tags: Morning sex, Sleepy sex, Quickie, Hand job, Kata & Reader are married, Size difference (Reader is slightly sized up to better fit Kata), 18+ MDNI Words: 751 âË âżïž”âżïž”âżïž”àšà§ · · ⥠· · àšà§âżïž”âżïž”âżïž” Ëâ
A distant rumble of thunder brought you out of your sleep this morning. As you rubbed the sleep from your eyes, you could hear the sound of rain outside. It made you not want to get out of bed and just stay nice and cozy but there were things do be done. You started to sit up to get out of bed when large arms wrapped around you, dragging you to the massive, warm form of your husband.Â
âNot yet.â You heard Katakuri grumble above you and it seemed like he had the same thought as you. You snuggled your face into his chest, the two of you now laying on your sides towards each other. Being in his arms on a rainy morning like this was absolutely perfect.Â
Maybe you could wait a little longer to get the day started. Â
He gripped you tighter so your bodies pressed together more and you felt his arousal against you. Â
Perhaps you could wait quite a while longer to get the day started. Â
You pulled slightly away from him to trace your fingers along the lines of his tattoos. He sighed contently at your touch and your fingers followed those pink lines down to waistband of his sweat pants. Using one hand to tug down the front of his sweat pants, you started to stroke his large shaft using the other. Â
He choked out a gasp at your actions and it only fueled you to keep going. Your hand went up and down his cock, earning soft groans from your husband. You looked up at him and could see him staring down at you, a blush on his face, his eyebrows knitted together, panting slightly. Â
Seeing him like this made pressure start to build in your lower stomach. It was a favorite sight of yours - your big, strong husband a whimpering, blushing mess and all because of you. Â
After a few more minutes of stroking him, you pulled your hand away to then put it on his hip. You pulled him towards you as you rolled onto your back and he followed your lead. Katakuri was now hovering above you, your legs lazily wrapped around his hips. One hand braced near your head resting on the pillows, he used his other to take off his pants. You pulled your nightie over your head, the two of you now fully naked together.Â
Katakuri dipped his head down to kiss you gently. The two of you long ago had found a way to kiss without his fangs harming you and you adored kissing this man. Wrapping your arms around his neck, you deepened the kiss as he lined himself up with your entrance. Â
As he slowly entered you, you gasped against his lips and his tongue invaded your mouth. You moaned around his tongue and the two of you sloppily made out as he thrusted into you, stretching your pussy around his large cock. The stretch quickly turned from slight discomfort into pleasure as he lazily rocked his hips. Â
While you loved how fast and passionate your usual sex with him was, this slow, sleepy sex was just right for this rainy morning. Â
He reached his hand in between the two of you and rubbed his thumb against your clit. You broke away from the kiss to throw your head back and moan loudly. Katakuri moved his lips down to your neck to begin kissing and gently nipping there, still slightly hovering above your body so he didnât crush you. Â
His attention all over you had you panting and clawing at his back. Â
âYes, yes, yes.â You breathily moaned, already feeling your orgasm building. With your nails digging into his back and you trying to rock your hips to match his pace, Katakuri knew you were close. Â
âCome for me, baby.â He whispered against your neck. The soft command made you come undone and you arched your back, letting out a cry as your orgasm ripped through you. Your moans rang through your bedroom and Katakuri was not far behind you. With a few more thrusts, he groaned loudly and he filled you up with his cum. Â
The two of you laid there in silence for a moment, just trying to catch your breaths. You released your nails from his back and moved your hands to caress the back of his head and neck. He sighed softly against the skin of your neck and gave you another gentle kiss.Â
Yeah, the day could definitely wait.Â
#happy friday!#been kinda mia cause of family visiting these past few weeks but now i'm back!#also i do intend to write some katakuri smut with reader being normal human size one day but i'm still building myself up to it!!#katakuri smut#katakuri x reader#katakuri one piece#charlotte katakuri#one piece x reader#one piece fanfiction#one piece imagines

BATGIRL & ROBIN
Finally guys after all the sneak peeks⊠my Cassandra Cain and Mia Mizoguchi Short Story! CASS AND MAPS!
Iâve been posting it on my instagram all this month and last week on my twitter but i had totally forgotten to post it in here, for 2 months there wasnât a day i wasnât thinking on them and i would have loved with all my heart to do something even longer but⊠building up a story, thinking over and over the layouts, drawing and coloring with this level of detail all on my own is really hard and i canât but feel guilty of taking this long for just this 7 pages, but as little that is, with all my heart i just really hope you like them :â) , I tried to put many little easter eggs and references but i will mention some at the end to not spoil your reading.
Thank you for reading! Please let me know what you think!
Okay, so some of the esster eggs:
PAGE 1: that Adam West Batman & Robin climbing a building shot which actually came to me from Bruno Redondoâs cover of Nightwing actually , and the rest of the panels hugely inspired by Batman The Animated Series!
PAGE 2: a portrait of Niccolai Tapes( The Mas Monk) on his early years and at his side Matt Wagner himself! , then a newspaper with a Batman based on his first appearances and a reference to the events from Batman vs the Mad Monk by Matt Wagner, and then ofc all the room filled with a bunch of objects taken exactly from the same pages of Matt when he draw The Monkâs Castle on the same book. and finally the book of Dracula for the same reason ;) , all this layout was inspired by one of the most iconic pages from Pax Americana by Frank Quitely
PAGE 3: all the vampires were based physically on Voldermortâs Death Eaters! but also the girl in black is Dala! Mad Monkâs more loyal acolyte which in the book she always desired to become a vampire but never could! , but from left to right, Barty Crocuh Jr. , Dala as Bellatrix, Peter Pettigrew, The Monk was âVoldemortâ , then Snape, Lucius, Narcissa and Fenrir Greyback, and that last panel was a BLADE reference đââïžđ
PAGE 4: this whole Cass yellow panels with speedlines were supposed to represent the same kind of panels that Damion Scott drew when Cass was moving really fast in her Batgirl run, the whole layout was based on a page of Jamal Campbell from his Green Arrow run
PAGE 5: shot referencing the killing joke joker and batgirl cover, you can see a âRed sunâ mode on the bat-flashlight apart from the Ultra Violet setting, them. Maps bites the Monk as she used to do a couple times in Gotham Academy, and Cass final attack is a reference to one of the moves she does in her 2000s run to stop the heart beats of a thug , and those circles were inspired by David Ajaâs work on his Iron Fist and run!
PAGE 6: the building on the background purposely resembles the Bat ears, the GCPD have the uniforms from BTAS and you can see also Detective Montoya and Jack Ryder interviewing her :), Maps little hearts are taken from Karl Kerschl who used to do them on Gotham Academy a couple times, and finally the Grapple Gun reference from all the time Maps mentioned it on Gotham Academy đââïž,ohh and the box of the gift was also the same feom Shadow of the Batgirl when Barbara gives her suit to Cass!
PAGE 7: Frank Millerâs Batman and Carrie Kelly cover đââïžđ«¶
THANK U GUYS đ«¶

inspired by this request (thank you @ftdtkatie and welcome back queen). harry and mia post wedding reception. smut but it's not really detailed innit. 2.7k words. more harry and mia here
***
When Harry finally untangles himself from her, Mia steps into the hotel room, twirling the key around her finger. âWow,â she murmurs, reaching for the light switch. âThis is ⊠wow.â
Harryâs back to nuzzling against her neck, arms around her again. âOnly the best for you.â
Mia suppresses her shudder, tossing the keys onto the entrance table. She lets Harry turn her around and press her against the door, his mouth on hers before she can squint up at him.
âWife,â he says again, softly, against her mouth. âMy wife.â
Her fingers grip his shirt. The blazer is long gone, sleeves rolled up to his elbows to show his strong arms, tattoos, and watch. The soft overhead light above accentuates the shine of the ring on her finger. She wiggles her fingers and Harry laughs softly, covering her left hand with his own.Â
âAre you happy, Mia?â he whispers, using his other hand to pull her chin up. âWas everything perfect today?â
Mia leans her head back on the door and stares up at him. The glow of the candles to the right of him illuminates half of his handsome face. Heâs smiling down at her, dimples on either side of his cheek, breathing softly. His lips are slightly swollen from all the kisses theyâve exchanged today.Â
âI have never been happier,â Mia says so quietly that itâs nearly inaudible. âAnd you?â
Harry ducks his head down and kisses her fully, holding her head against the door. âYouâve no idea, Mia,â he whispers. âI donât think youâll ever know.â
She breaks her hand out of his and loops her arms around his shoulder. Harryâs eyes shine when he pulls back from the kiss, cheeks a gentle pink. He leans down and picks her up from under her knees, cradling her against his torso. Mia laughs and holds onto him tighter. Harry walks them further into the room, giving her a tour of the place with careless motions. âThatâs the dining. The bathrooms. The bar. The fridge.â
Then he stops at the bed, carefully toeing off his shoes and climbing into it on his knees. He swings her carefully and then lays her in the middle of the bed.
Mia stretches cat-like, back sinking into the mattress. âOh, thatâs so nice.â
Harry smiles, sitting down, leaning on his outstretched palm. His eyes twinkle with amusement, watching her stretch her arms out above her head. âIsnât it? My backâs been hurting something fierce too.â
She shakes her ankles out, catching Harryâs attention. âTry walking around in these.â
âYouâre right.â He catches one of her ankles and starts to undo the buckle. âTorture devices.â
âNow youâre understanding.â
Harry drops the shoe and works on the other one. He massages her heel gently, forcing a groan of relief out of Mia who stares up at the ceiling. When Harryâs hand starts trailing upwards and under her dress, she grins and raises her head, pushing up onto her ankles. âWhat are you doing?â
Harry bends down to kiss her calves and knees, warm hands holding her as if sheâll break. âSit up, baby. Letâs get your hair down.â
Mia does so, with help from Harry tugging on her hands, and then he sits behind her with his own tie undone and shirt halfway unbuttoned. For the reception, she kept her hair braided and up, so itâs unsurprising that by the time Harryâs done unleashing her hair, there are at least 25 pins sitting in her lap. His nimble fingers run through her hair to get rid of any hairspray, the soft hidden strands from within her bun falling in loose waves around her face. Harry holds her chin as he kisses her again. âSo pretty,â he murmurs, lips sliding down to her neck. âWanna get out of the dress?â
âMhmm.â
He undoes the zipper and pats her thigh to get her to stand. The dress falls to her feet. Harry leans back on his palms again, biting the inside of his cheek to hide his smile. âYou are so pretty, Mia.â
Itâs stupid how Mia suddenly feels nervous. Sheâs not supposed to feel this way â sheâs had sex with Harry likely a thousand times now. But thereâs something about the way she stands before him in the â very meticulously picked out, thank you very much â bra and underwear set, his eyes drinking her in, though his smile really only widens when he sees the emotion in her eyes.
With his hand outstretched, he beckons her forward. As if a puppet on a string, she shuffles back to him, sitting in his lap.
He kisses her again and again, sighing and licking into her mouth with a surprising amount of gentleness that makes Miaâs throat close.Â
âAre you tired? Sleepy? Hungry?â
Mia kisses him back, gripping the back of his neck. âIâve got other things on my mind.â
He hums, drawing back to look at her face. âIâll order food now so itâs ready by the time weâre done.â
Her fingers walk down his collarbones, lips pursed. âDone with what?â she says innocently, because even though sheâs nervous, that wonât stop her from being annoying. âWhat do you think weâre about to do, mister?ââ
Harry kisses her once more. âYou know damn well what weâre going to do.â Then he leans over and grabs the phone, balancing her into his lap as he does. âWhat do you think youâll be in the mood for?â
Mia rests her head on his shoulder, pressing her hips against his. He takes a shuddering breath that makes her smile. âA burger.â
âFries?â
âNah.â
âAnything else? Dessert?â
âNo cake, please. Iâve had too much today.â
âAlright, baby.â
She listens to him dial and wait for the desk to answer. His voice rumbles under her ear. He finishes his list of late night dining food with â...and if you could, a bowl of strawberries for dessert. Thanks.â
Mia lifts her head to grin at him when he puts the phone down. âSo romantic.â
âShould have made them chocolate covered,â Harry says with a frown.Â
She kisses him, throwing all her might into it, which effectively catches Harry off guard. Instead of catching her, he falls onto his back, his hair in his face as she swings a leg over his waist and straddles him. The undone tie comes off first, flying behind her, and Harryâs laughing as she works on the rest of his buttons.Â
âWhat do we have â T-minus twenty minutes?â
âThirty, likely.â
âEnough time, Iâd say.â
Harry reaches up and squishes her cheeks together. âOh yeah?â he mimics. âWhat do you think weâre about to do, huh?â
Mia tries to bat his hands away but he only squishes harder. She crosses her arms over her barely dressed torso and says, âYouâre being horny. Iâm being practical. Donât you know that a lack of consummation is grounds for annulment?â
Harry throws his head back and snorts. âThereâs absolutely no way you just said consummation.â
âItâs a real thing.â
âIâm pretty sure weâve consummated our relationship to keep us afloat for a good decade.â
âOh, so youâre saying you want an annulment?â
Harry bites on his inner cheek. âItâs a bit early for divorce jokes, no?â
âAnnulment, not divorce.â
âWhatever.â He raises his head and smiles up at her. âMia.â
âYeah?â
âWhy are you shaking?â His hands come up around her, yanking her down with him so she lays flat on his chest. He rubs her arms, but the shivering doesnât stop. âBaby.â
âIs it stupid that Iâm actually, you know, nervous-excited?â
âExcited, I understand. Being nervous, though, is interesting.â
âYouâre not nervous?â
âTo..to have sex?â Harry asks, slightly bewildered. âNot really.â
Mia rolls her eyes. âI donât think itâs the sex that's making me nervous. I donât know what it is. Just all the excitement and all of today, maybe. I think Iâm having a sugar crash. Yeah, thatâs what this feels like. But I also donât want the day to end because Iâm having so much fun. Itâs surreal, but Iâm also in the moment. Itâs weird. I donât know.â
She knows sheâs rambling a bit, but itâs hard to stop once sheâs started and Harryâs looking at her with just a fond smile, sheâs not sure if heâs actually listening or just admiring her face.
âI know itâs a lot to process,â Harry says once heâs done staring at her. âHonestly, my love, if you just wanna crash for the night, we can do that. Like I said, weâve consummated enough timesââ
âIâm really starting to dislike the way you say that wordââ
â--so we can just get our clothes off and go to sleep.â
Mia frowns deeply. âNo way Iâm sleeping without banging you within an inch of your life, Harry.â
âRomantic.â He sits up and brings her along. âMia.â He waits for her to look at him. âYouâre in charge tonight. Whatever you want goes.â
âReally?â
âReally.â
A look of determination slots onto her face. âAlright.â
The kiss is gentle, but thereâs an underlying urgency in it. The way she presses her hips to his again suggests sheâs done with the chatter, and when his large hands grab her waist and pull on her, she softly sighs into his mouth.
Harry â to be plain â has been hard since the moment Mia looked at him at the reception half an hour ago and said itâs time to leave. Heâd been waiting for her signal, and now theyâre here, Mia sprawled on top of him, thighs around his waist, and her mouth hot on his. Her hands push off his shirt, tossing it aside just as Harryâs fingers twist off the clasp of her bra.
She shivers as the straps fall from her shoulders, and Harry leans in to pepper kisses to her chest. She holds him close, cradling his head, and throwing her own head back with a satisfied hum. His lips find the column of her throat next, the back of her ear, her temple, her nose. He twists them over so that he lays on top of her, and she gives in to his heady kisses.
His hands slide down her sides, fingers catching onto the band of her underwear, and he pulls away to look at her. Itâs always been what he does, Mia thinks, as his eyes search for visible agreement. She nods at him, raising her hips to help him. His dimples return and the last of her garment is tossed away.
âNot fair,â Mia murmurs, dragging her nails down his abs. He tightens the muscles to prevent being tickless. âTake yours off too.â
Harry works on his belt while Mia watches with heavy eyes. Once his trousers are gone, he fits himself between her legs and sighs at the contact of their skin.
She loves the weight of him on top of her, just shy of crushing her lungs. His soft skin against hers, simply absorbing heat.Â
âNothing else,â Mia says, getting comfortable under him. âWe can do the other stuff later. Just want you inside of me right now.â
Harry smiles. âYou know me too well.â
âI can tell by that evil look that youâre about to use your mouth, but I mean it,â Mia giggles, and he kisses her neck as his hands slowly part her legs. His fingers slide through, gently pressing one finger at her entrance. He pushes in and listens to her whimper before adding another. And when she whimpers again, he kisses her so he can swallow the noises and savor them.Â
âHarry, ah please just â yeah. Just⊠yes. Yes.â
He lines himself up and carefully begins to enter her. Itâs always this way, no matter if theyâve previously decided to be rough. He watches her face contort with pleasure, her mangled whine blending in with his deep groan. The feel of her walls invites him, warm and comforting.
âI love you,â Harry murmurs against her mouth, arms braced beside her head. Her eyes flicker up at him, a beginning of a flush blossoming on her face. âYou are everything. Do you understand? Everything.â
His thrusts are shallow at first, but once he hears her throaty moan, he pulls her closer to him and presses deeper. She makes the prettiest sounds as he quickens his pace, eyes never leaving hers.Â
âWife,â he marvels, causing Mia to whine and throw her arms around him. Her sharp nails dig into his shoulders. âI love you. I love you.â
All of Miaâs nervousness, or whatever you would call it, melts away. Instead, she looks up at her husband in awe. Only the two of them know how far theyâve come. Nobody else but Mia sees the way Harryâs eyes take her in, how his heart beats to the syllables of her name, how his hands cup her face as if sheâs the most precious thing heâs ever laid eyes on.
And in his most vulnerable moment too. Nobody sees Harry the way he is now, spread out and bare in front of her, broken down to the point where she can see every molecule of him. His fears, his fierce way of loving, his stubbornness, his protectiveness.Â
Itâs all hers.Â
She holds him closer, emotion in her throat causing her to moan lowly, nails still pressing into his skin.
It doesnât take long for either of them to announce their impending orgasm, but Harry goes first, and then, with the help of his thumb against her clit, she follows, hot pleasure running down her spine like electricity. Heâs holding her in his arms when sheâs coming down from that high, mumbles soft words against her hair.
âI love you,â Mia whispers, and that doesnât even begin to cover it.
Harryâs lips twist into a smile and he runs his palms over her eyes. âI love you.â
âIâm crying?â
âA little, my love.â
His own eyes are looking misty again.
âSorry. Donât know why Iâd be crying right now.â
He shakes his head. âDonât apologize.â He starts sliding down her body, and she only realizes what heâs doing when his head is between her legs and his tongue is darting out to give her a gentle lick.
Mia hisses, yanking on his hair. âGive me a bloody minute, would you?â
He rests his head on her thigh and waits exactly one minute before he returns to his spot and licks into her.
Despite the lack of rest, Miaâs riding out another orgasm on his tongue within minutes, the tears in her eyes now from oversensitivity. Sheâs pushing him away frantically, trembling when he emerges while wiping the corners of his mouth, grinning. His hair is a mess, curtains around his brows, and his eyes filled with delight.
Heâs so fucking handsome.
âYou just canât help yourself,â Mia says, barely able to manage a whisper.
âYou taste so good, I really canât.â
Before he returns to lay next to her, he finds his white shirt and helps her into it. Sheâs shivering again, still from excitement it seems, and when he finds his place beside her, she immediately snuggles into him. Mia takes exaggerated inhales to breathe in his scent, and Harry simply cards his clean fingers through her hair.Â
Itâs nearing two in the morning now, but unlike before, Miaâs wide awake. Harryâs eyes are closed, she sees when she glances at him, but he doesn't seem to be asleep. She presses even closer to him, throwing the blanket over his lower half to keep him from getting cold.
When the food arrives, itâs Mia that wraps her robe around herself and takes it in while Harry yawns and struggles to sit up. They go for the strawberries first, both of them sitting in white robes on the edge of the bed, shoulders brushing against one another. He pours her some champagne and blinks at her when she tells him sheâs barely had a sip of water today.
And when Harry wipes the strawberry residue from Miaâs mouth and drags her in for a deep kiss, Miaâs heart just about explodes with happiness. Harry smiles into the kiss and holds her tighter.Â
She leans into his strong frame, breathing him in again.
Everything is good.

You Me Her
Since AO3 is down and I'm sure people are losing their minds looking for fics (I am people), I'm posting some of my fics over here. If you look in the tag "Mia writes fanfic" you can see all the fic I've posted on tumblr. If you prefer to read on AO3 now that itâs back up, you can find this fic here
Robin was the first person to notice something was wrong with Steve Harrington.Â
By the end of the day, everyone had noticed. People were whispering up and down the halls, wondering what had happened to Steve since yesterday to make him act so drastically different. He hadnât flirted with a single girl all day. Heâd told Tommy Hagan to âknock it offâ when Tommy had started tormenting a freshman. Heâd treated his friends weirdly â avoiding Jason Carver, a sophomore on the basketball team who heâd been training, losing patience with Carol Perkinsâs snappish remarks, freezing up when some cheerleaders talked to him.Â
Robin heard all of this second-hand. King Steve was so notorious that even the band kids were gossiping about his personality transplant. Multiple people came up to Robin to share some tidbit of gossip that they insisted proved that Steve had been body-snatched.Â
But Robin didnât need rumors to know that Steve Harrington was different. Sheâd known since first period, when heâd walked into Ms. Clickâs class on time and without a bagel. Steve had barely glanced at Tammy, even as sheâd looked at him from under her lashes, beautiful and enticing. Instead, Steve had, for the first time in his entire life, looked at Robin.Â
And heâd smiled at her. Not a polite acknowledgement of her existence â which still would have been more than Robin had ever gotten from him â but a huge, friendly smile. The kind that would have had most girls falling at his feet.Â
Robin glanced behind her to see if Steve was smiling at someone else, but unless Steve was smiling like that at Fred Benson â even more unlikely â he was definitely directing that expression at her.Â
Robin spun back to Steve, unsure what her face was communicating. Confusion, maybe, or wide-eyed shock.Â
Steve didnât look offended or surprised by her reaction, just gave her a dorky little wave and sat down.Â
Robin stared at the back of his head, still trying to process what had just happened. Tammy turned to Robin, scanning her up and down. Robin knew she was just trying to figure out what about Robin had caught King Steveâs interest, but her scrutiny made Robin feel all hot anyway. It was Tammy, looking at Robin intently. With purpose. Taking in Robinâs stupid perm and her smudgy makeup and her layers of jewelry.Â
Robin blushed.Â
Tammy turned back around.Â
Ms. Click began talking, but Robin didnât hear a single word for the rest of class, lost in thought. She alternated between loud mental screaming about the fact that Tammy had looked at her and staring at Steve Harringtonâs famous hair and wondering what the hell had inspired him to notice her existence.Â
Robin was packing in a daze at the end of class when Steve gave her another smile before leaving. Robin accidentally met Tammyâs eyes, which were just as confused as Robin felt.Â
Tammy bit her lip, which was pink and soft-looking. âRobin? Did you talk to Steve over the weekend?â
Oh my god. Tammy was talking to her. It wasnât like Tammy never talked to her, but every single time it made Robin lose her mind and babble like a freak.Â
Robin just shook her head instead of risking opening her mouth.Â
âOh,â Tammy said, looking disappointed. âBut you like him?â
âNo,â Robin said honestly. âI donât even know him.â
âBut you like him,â Tammy said, and this time it wasnât a question. âI saw you blushing after he smiled at you.â
âI guess so,â Robin said. What else was she supposed to say? She couldnât tell Tammy that she didnât give a damn if Steve Harrington looked at her and that the blush had been all for Tammy. That would send Tammy running the other way.
âYou donât have to be embarrassed,â Tammy said. âA lot of girls like Steve.â
She didnât mention that she was one of those girls, but she didnât need to. Robin knew.Â
Maybe it would be okay to pretend to like Steve. It would give her and Tammy something in common and it would help her hide in plain sight. Steve was the perfect fake crush for a lesbian, pretty and athletic enough to be an acceptable crush, but unattainable enough that she would never have to act on it. Robin had never faked a crush on him before because of the principle of the thing, but now that sheâd accidentally already done it, she might as well keep up the pretense.Â
âToday must have been a fluke,â Robin told Tammy, trying to sound both reassuring and lovelorn. She didnât want Tammy to see her as a threat. She wanted her to see her as a friend. âI donât think Steve even knows my name.â
***
But Steve kept smiling at her for the rest of the week and on Thursday, Tammy asked Robin if she wanted to hang out after school.Â
âReally?â Robin asked. Then, âI mean, yeah, sure. Sounds fun.â
So Robin went to Tammyâs house with the rest of Tammyâs friends. Apparently they did this every Thursday â Friday and Saturday were date nights, which made Thursday the perfect girlsâ night.Â
They went up to Tammyâs room, which was like peeking into her mind. The other girls paid no attention to the room, probably having seen it a million times. They settled on the floor, spreading bowls of chips and chocolates around and pulling out magazines and nail polish. But Robin couldnât help but try to take in every detail of the room. The walls were pink and the curtains and bedspread a gauzy white, giving everything a bit of a princess feel. But there were posters on the wall, and not the kind Robin had expected. There werenât handsome movie stars â these were girls with guitars.Â
âWhoâs that?â Robin asked, pointing at a poster of a girl with long straight hair, standing over a microphone and holding a guitar.Â
Tammy twisted to see who Robin was pointing to. âThatâs Emmylou Harris. Sheâs incredible. She was one of the first women to really make it big in country music.â
âSo you want to be like her?â Robin asked.Â
Tammy blushed a little, playing with the end of her long blonde curls. âI mean, I donât know if Iâm as good as Emmylou Harris. But thatâs the dream.â
âYouâre really good,â Robin said sincerely. âI heard you singing Kiss On My List before class the other day and it was-â captivating. life-changing. beautiful. âReally good,â Robin finished lamely.Â
âThank you,â Tammy said, looking touched.Â
One of Tammyâs friends â Olivia? â rolled her eyes. âTam, we didnât invite Robin here to talk about your singing. We want to hear about Steve Harrington!â
The two other girls â Karen and Melissa â giggled and nodded their agreement.Â
âWhat did you do to get his attention?â Olivia asked Robin.Â
Robin tried not to obviously deflate. She wanted to talk to Tammy about her passions, see the way Tammy lit up when she smiled. She didnât want to gossip about stupid boys, especially not Steve Harrington.Â
But that was why theyâd invited her over. Her fake crush on Steve was her in with these girls, with Tammy, and she had to make them believe her if she wanted to be invited to spend more time with him.Â
âI donât know,â Robin said honestly. âIâve sat behind him all year and I didnât think he knew I existed. And then all of a sudden on Monday â bam! â heâs acting like he knows me.â
Melissa hummed, passing around bottles of nail polish. âMaybe itâs your hair? Did you perm it recently? Cause Heather Holloway says Steve has a thing for girls with curly hair.â
Tammy frowned at her own hair and shook her head. âRobinâs hair has been like that all year.â
Tammy had watched Robin closely enough to notice what she did with her hair? Robin bit down on a smile, grabbing blue nail polish from Melissa.Â
âDid you go to the party last weekend?â Karen asked.Â
Robin shook her head. Sheâs actually spend last weekend reading a book, listening to her language tapes, and playing board games with her parents. Nothing that could be remotely considered cool.Â
âDid you look particularly pretty on Monday?â Olivia asked.Â
Robin shrugged. âI think I just looked how I always do.â
Tammy put on a Kris Kristofferson record then sat down beside Robin again. âI guess weâll just have to watch what he does in class. Collect more information.â
âI guess so,â Robin said, hoping Steve forgot her existence soon for her own sake. She didnât know what she would do if he actually asked her out.Â
But maybe if he kept giving her attention she could keep this new friendship with Tammy, at least for a little while.Â
Robin sighed, loud and long.Â
âDonât worry,â Tammy said, âWeâll figure it out.â
âAnd you donât⊠mind?â Robin asked. âI know you like him too. I donât want to break girl code or something.â
Robin had never worried about breaking girl code before, for obvious reasons, but sheâd seen girls fall out over liking the same guy.Â
Olivia snorted. âPlease. Girl code doesnât count when it comes to Steve Harrington. Heâs slept with half the school.â
âYeah, everyone knows heâs just a good time,â Karen added. âHe doesnât actually date girls for real.â
âI went out with him for two weeks in middle school,â Melissa said. âWe made it to second base and then he dumped me for Erica Tanner.â
âYouâre in good company here,â Olivia promised.Â
Tammy still hadnât spoken. Tammy was focused on painting her nails bright pink, a color Robin would never choose for herself but that perfectly matched with Tammyâs pink cheeks and pink lips, which she was biting.Â
Because Tammy cared, Robin realized. Steve might be the school slut, and he might never date a girl seriously, but Tammy liked him for real.Â
Melissa, Olivia, and Karen were now arguing over whether Melissaâs two-week fling with Steve Harrington counted as a relationship. They seemed sufficiently distracted, so Robin dropped her voice low and leaned into Tammyâs space.Â
âDo you mind?â she asked Tammy. âBecause I can back off.â
âNo,â Tammy said, smile pretty and entirely a lie. âItâs okay. I donât mind.â
Robin didnât know what to do with that. Was Tammy trying to save face by not admitting she had a real crush on Steve Harrington? Was this her way of testing if Robin was worthy friend-material? How was Steve fucking Harrington Robinâs key to getting to know Tammy and also the one who was mostly likely to ruin this new friendship?
âOkay,â Robin said, staring at her nails so she wouldnât have to figure out what facial expression was appropriate. She cleared her throat. âSo you were telling me about Emmylou Harris?â
***
Steve Harrington came up to Robin at her locker on Friday, when she was getting the books she needed to take home for the weekend.Â
âHey,â he said, like it wasnât supremely weird that he was approaching Robin Buckley, band geek and wallflower and no one who ever should have caught his eye.Â
âHi?â Robin answered.Â
Steve ran his fingers through his hair. âDo you want to go to the diner with me? We could get milkshakes.â
Robin stared at him. Was this a joke? A prank? Had one of his friends dared him to ask out the weird band kid?
âWhat?â Robin asked.Â
Steve rubbed the back of his neck. He looked nervous, which was crazy. He was Steve Harrington and she was just Robin Buckley.Â
âI can drive us,â Steve said. âAnd Iâll pay.â
âIâm not going on a date with you,â Robin said. It was a gut reaction, but a second later Robin couldnât help but wonder if she should have said yes. What was she going to tell Tammy about why sheâd turned down her supposed crush?
But why was Steve Harrington even asking her out in the first place?
Steve didnât look offended at her rejection, but he did hurry to say, âI know. I didnât mean as a date.â
Robin looked down the hall. A group of cheerleaders at one end was watching them, giggling and tittering. Had the cheerleaders put him up to this? Girls could be vicious, but trying to embarrass a girl by having a boy ask her out seemed like a more guy type of prank somehow.Â
âYou want to hang out with me just as friends,â Robin said skeptically.Â
âYeah,â Steve said.Â
Robin rolled her eyes. âRight. Thanks, but no thanks.â
âI mean it,â Steve said. âI want to be friends.â
He was lying. Robin didnât know why, but he was lying. Maybe he thought that if she hung out with him as âfriendsâ she would eventually change her mind and agree to date him.Â
âWhy?â Robin demanded. âWhy would you want to be friends with me?â
Steve opened his mouth, then paused. He thought for a few seconds before he said, âYou seem cool.â
Robin snorted. âIâm the furthest thing from cool.â
âNo, I know,â Steve said. âI mean you seem⊠interesting. Nice. Fun.â
âYou donât even know me,â Robin said. âWeâve never spoken, and now all of a sudden youâre interested in me? I donât buy it.â
âItâs true,â Steve said. He jumped as a hand landed on his arm and then Carol Perkins was there, staring Robin down with disdain in her eyes.Â
âWhat are you doing?â Carol asked.Â
âI was asking Robin to milkshakes,â Steve said.Â
Carol gave Robin an up-and-down and it didnât feel good like when Tammy had done it. Carol wasnât admiring her. She was looking at Robin like gum stuck to the bottom of her shoe.Â
âAre you that bored of going out with pretty girls?â Carol asked, voice all fake-interested like it was a real question.Â
Steve scowled, shaking Carolâs hand off his arm. âRobinâs pretty.â
Carol rolled her eyes. âSheâs not terrible, I guess, under that bad perm, but she dresses like a dyke. If you want to rebel and date a freak or a charity case, you can do better.â
Robin flinched violently when Carol said the word dyke. She fought to keep her expression straight even as her heart raced and her lungs constricted.Â
Did Carol Perkins know? Or had she blindly thrown out an insult, hoping it would hurt?
âDonât call her that,â Steve snapped, his face dark and furious. He looked frightening enough that Robin skittered back half a step.Â
Carol didnât look scared of Steve, but her mouth did drop open in shock.Â
That was fair. Robin was shocked too.Â
Was Steve defending her?
Maybe this was what it meant to be a girl Steve Harrington liked. Maybe he didnât like Carol calling Robin a dyke because that was an offense to his own masculinity. That was the only thing that made sense. Robin had heard Steve throw around gay slurs just last week, so it couldnât be the word itself that he had a problem with.
âSeriously, Steve?â Carol asked, haughty and judgmental. âYou canât actually like her.â
âRobin is great,â Steve insisted.Â
Carol rolled her eyes. âWhatever. Iâll remind you of this when you come to your senses.â
With that, Carol spun on her heels â red hair smacking Steve in the face â and walked away.
Steveâs posture loosened, like he had also perceived Carol as a threat.Â
âIâm sorry,â he told Robin, looking sincere and apologetic.Â
Robin hated him.Â
âStay the fuck away from meâ Robin told Steve.Â
She slammed her locker and walked away, clutching her books to her chest to hide her shaking hands. She kept her head up as she walked by the cheerleaders, who laughed loudly as she passed.Â
***
Steve kept smiling at her whenever he walked into Clickâs class, but he didnât try to ask her out again.Â
He looked a bit like a kicked puppy every time she glared back at him, but Robin didnât care.Â
âWhat are you doing?â Tammy asked one day after class. âHeâs going to give up on you if you keep glaring at him like that.â
âHe asked me out as a joke,â Robin told Tammy.Â
Tammy frowned. âAre you sure it was a joke? I donât think he would do that.â
âIâm sure,â Robin said darkly, thinking of Carol hovering and the cheerleaders watching. Did Steve believe what Carol had said? Was that the joke: to put Robin in a position where she had to either go on a date with a man she didnât like or else turn him down and confirm she was a lesbian? What kind of girl said no to a date with Steve Harrington?
Tammy bit her lip. She had on bright pink lipstick today. It would have looked tacky on anyone else, but it made Tammy look like a pop star. Robin wondered if the lipstick was flavored. She wished she could kiss Tammy and find out.
âYou donât mind if I flirt with him, right?â Tammy asked, echoing Robinâs words at her house last week. So far, Robin hadnât been invited to girlsâ night again.Â
Yes, Robin thought. Yes, I mind. I mind so much, but not for the reason that you think.Â
âNot at all,â Robin said. âItâs like you said, girl code doesnât apply to Steve Harrington. Go for it.â
So Tammy kept trying to get Steveâs attention. He was nice to her. He never outright ignored her when she talked to him, but he never talked to her for longer than politeness required. He would always turn away, missing the way Tammyâs face fell.Â
And he kept fucking smiling at Robin. Picking up her books when she dropped them. Apologizing to her when he got bagel crumbs on the floor, even though sheâd never mentioned how much it annoyed her. Turning to catch her eye when someone said something funny, like he thought she was someone he could share inside jokes with.Â
Slowly, Tammy stopped smiling at Robin. She started flicking annoyed glances in Robinâs direction whenever Steve gave Robin attention. Started snapping at Robin whenever Robin tried to sympathize with her about how much of a douchebag Steve Harrington was. Started avoiding Robin unless Robin directly started conversation with her.Â
Steve Harrington was ruining everything.
***
âWhat are you doing?â Robin demanded. Sheâd chased Steve after Ms. Clickâs class, following him to the little alley out by the gym. She was going to be late for math, but she didnât care. She needed to talk to him before he ruined everything.Â
Steve frowned as he lit up a cigarette. âWhat do you mean?â
âIn Clickâs class,â Robin said. âTammy is practically throwing herself at you but you never even look her way. And I donât talk to you at all, but you keep trying to talk to me.â
A flash of something crossed Steveâs face, but Robin didnât know him well enough to read his expressions and it was gone in a heartbeat anyway.Â
âYou donât want me to talk to you?â Steve asked.
âYes!â Robin said. âNo. I donât know. Why wonât you flirt with Tammy?â
Steveâs face scrunched up. It was a face Robin had seen before when they were taking tests in class â it meant Steve had no idea what was going on. âYouâre upset because Iâm not flirting with Tammy Thompson?â
âI donât get it!â Robin said. âSheâs really nice and sheâs a good singer and sheâs really pretty. Objectively. I mean, she seems like the Steve Harrington type.â
âRight,â Steve said, his lips twitching like she had said something funny.Â
âSo I donât get it,â Robin said. âSheâs right there, and I donât even try, but you keep looking. Whatâs so special about me?â
âOh,â Steve said, like he had just realized something. âSheâs jealous of you.â
Robin shuffled but didnât say anything. Of course Tammy was jealous. Steve sat next to her every day, did he really not see it?
âAnd you donât like that,â Steve continued, like he was figuring something out. Unfortunately, he was figuring out entirely the wrong thing. Robin wasnât here to talk to Steve about her friendship with Tammy, she was here to find out why Steve didnât like Tammy and why he seemed to like her.Â
âItâs not about me,â Robin said.Â
âRight,â Steve said, inhaling his stupid carcinogens. âOkay.â
âOkay?â Robin asked. She was pretty sure she was smarter than Steve Harrington, so she didnât know why she was the one feeling lost in this conversation.Â
Steve stubbed out his cigarette against the wall. âIâll fix it.â
The late bell rang. Robin wanted to ask Steve what heâd understood from this conversation, but she really did need to go to math class. Arriving late wasnât a good way to fly under the radar.Â
âOkay,â she told Steve, not quite sure what she was agreeing to.Â
He gave her another one of those big smiles as she left the alleyway. It made something churn in her gut.Â
She wanted to be the kind of girl who got excited when Steve Harrington smiled at her like that. She wanted Tammy Thompson to smile at her like that. She wanted to fall in love with someone who loved her back, and she wanted to not get chased out of town by an angry mob with pitchforks for it.Â
***
The next time Robin walked into Ms. Clickâs class, Steve was flirting with Tammy.Â
Robin had to stop in the middle of the aisle, feeling like sheâd just been punched in the gut.Â
Tammy was leaning into Steveâs space, twirling her blonde curls around one finger. Steve was smiling at her, arm stretched over the back of her chair, listening attentively as she spoke.Â
Robin forced herself to walk mechanically to her desk. She took her notebook and pencil case out of her backpack and very carefully arranged everything on her desk, doing anything she could to prolong looking up. She didnât want to watch this.Â
After what felt like the longest few minutes of Robinâs life, Ms. Click began talking. Robin risked looking up and saw that Steve had pulled his arm back and Tammy was sitting in her own seat again.Â
She couldn't stop seeing them wrapped up in each other.Â
At the end of class, Steve walked out quickly, the way he always did. Robin wondered if he always went to smoke behind the gym and that was why he ran away so fast.Â
Tammy whirled to Robin, squealing, her face lit up in a beautiful smile.Â
âRobin! Did you see that!â
Tammy hadnât started a conversation with Robin in two weeks. Robin managed a real smile in the face of Tammyâs happiness.Â
âI did,â she said.Â
âI think he likes me,â Tammy said, almost shy, playing with the bracelets on her wrist.Â
âYeah,â Robin said, ignoring the sinking feeling in her gut. âI think so too.â
***
The rumors at band practice told Robin that Steve was still flirting with other girls. He seemed particularly interested in Nancy Wheeler, who was a priss and a nerd but who was pretty and definitely his type. He seemed to be slowly wearing her down.Â
It made Robin furious. So Steve Harrington had a crush on Nancy Wheeler, fine, that made sense. But if he really liked her, and the rumors said he was absolutely head-over-heels, then what was he doing playing with Tammy and Robin? What the fuck was he up to?
***
A week later, Steve didnât run out of Clickâs class at the first sound of the bell. Instead he turned to Tammy and Robin and said, âIâm having a party at my house tonight. Youâre both invited.â
âIâll think about it,â Tammy said, smiling like this was a game. It was. They all knew Tammy would be going to see Steve and she was just trying to play it cool.Â
âCool,â Steve said. He met Tammyâs eyes, then Robin's. âIâll see you there.â
Tammy waited until he walked away, then did a little shimmy of excitement. It was kind of lame, but also hopelessly endearing. Robin liked when Tammy didnât try to act cool around her.Â
âYouâre going?â Robin asked dully.Â
âOf course Iâm going!â Tammy said. âThis is going to be so much fun! Youâre coming, right?â
âYeah,â Robin said, her mouth running before her brain could catch up with it. Tammy wanted her there. What else could she do? âIâll be there.â
***
Robin got her dad to drop her off at the party. She was willing to bet she was the only teenager being dropped off by their dad, but her parents werenât the type to be upset about her going out and they trusted her to drink responsibly. Plus, Robin couldnât drive, so she didnât know how else she was supposed to get there.Â
By the time she arrived, the party was already in full swing. Music came from inside the house and a few people spilled out into the yard.Â
Robin headed inside, dodging around a few couples making out against the hallway walls. Tammy was probably here already, right? Robin passed through the kitchen, filling a red solo cup with a tiny amount of vodka and a lot of coke. Jason Carver was there, flirting with Chrissy Cunningham, who was blushing at the attention.Â
Robin slipped into the living room and that was where she found Tammy. She was standing against a wall, surrounded by Olivia, Melissa, and Karen. Tammy was holding a red solo cup and staring out at the other end of the living room.Â
Robin followed her gave to Steve, who was talking to⊠Eddie Munson? Robin watched with her jaw slack until Steve came away with a grin and a joint between his fingers.Â
That made sense, actually. Of course the only reason Steve Harrington would ever speak to Eddie Munson would be to buy drugs.
Robin went up to Tammy, hovering at the edge of the group as she said âhi.â
âHey,â Tammy said, giving her a distracted smile.Â
âI like your dress,â Robin said. She wanted to say that Tammy looked good, but that wasnât a safe compliment.Â
âThanks,â Tammy said. âI got it in Indy.â
âItâs cute,â Robin said. It was â pink and ruffled at the edges and unlike anything anyone else was wearing. Something that screamed Tammy Thompson.Â
The music went quiet for a moment, and Robin spun around, trying to figure out why. Carol Perkins was standing by the speakers.Â
âLetâs play a game!â she said, blowing a bubble with her gum like the picture of teenage insouciance. âTruth or dare.â
She sat on the ground, Tommy Hagan and Steve Harrington sitting beside her. A few more jocks joined â Jason and Andy from the basketball team, Chrissy and Fiona from the cheerleading squad. Heather Holloway and Patrick and Brenda.Â
âWe have to join!â Tammy said. She grabbed Robinâs hand and dragged her over to the circle.
Robin complied in a daze. Tammy was holding her hand. Tammyâs hand was soft and warm and not sweaty at all and Robin could die happy, Tammyâs hand in hers.Â
Tammy released her as soon as they got to the circle and Robin felt suddenly bereft, taking a seat mechanically beside her. Melissa, Karen, and Olivia sat on Tammyâs other side.Â
Steve Harrington was looking in her direction, eyebrows up, and Robin scowled at him. Steve smiled, hands up like he was saying donât shoot, and Carol noticed and shot Robin a glare.Â
âTommy,â Steve said. âTruth or dare?â
âDare,â Tommy said.Â
Steve grinned. âI dare you to let Carol take a body shot off you.â
Tommy scrunched up his face. âDonât you mean I should take a shot off her?â
Steve blinked, absolutely nothing behind his eyes. âWhat do you mean?â
So Tommy lay down and balanced a shot glass on his stomach, so low it was practically on his hips, and Carol grabbed it with her mouth, tipping her head back to drink. Robin didnât like Carol at all, but she had to admit there was something attractive about it, about the long line of Carolâs throat as she drank the shot and the dainty, self-satisfied way she wiped her mouth afterward.Â
From there, they kept going around the circle.Â
Heather Holloway gave Andy a lap dance. Fiona admitted to having done mushrooms. Jason Carver was dared to kiss the prettiest girl in the circle, which made him turn to Chrissy Cunningham and say âA good girl like you deserves better than some drunken kiss during truth or dare. What do you say I take you out to dinner tomorrow and then give you a kiss on your front porch at the end of the night?â
Chrissyâs smile was disarmingly wide. âYeah,â she said, nodding. âThat sounds nice.â
âItâs a date,â Jason said. A few of the boys hollered and whooped, patting Jason on the back and shaking him a little. Jason looked bashful, hiding a smile behind a sip of his drink.Â
âFinally!â Carol Perkins said. She turned to Chrissy. âHeâs been pining over you since last year and it took him this long to work up the guts to ask you out.â
Jason screeched at Carol, who ignored him and winked at a pleased-looking Chrissy. Robin was hit with the sudden realization that Carol Perkins could be nice, when she wanted to be.Â
Melissa got dared to swap clothes with Patrick, Karen revealed sheâd shoplifted a pair of earrings once, and Olivia admitted to having made out with a boy in the school janitorâs closet.Â
Then it was Tammyâs turn.Â
âTruth or dare?âÂ
âDare,â Tammy said, something brave in her eyes.Â
A few of the girls conferred together â Carol and Heather and Fiona â before turning to Tammy with smiles on their faces. âWe dare you to shotgun with Steve.â
Tammyâs eyes went wide. Robin didnât think Tammy was the type to smoke weed, but Tammy pressed a confident smile onto her face. Maybe she didnât want to back down from a dare. Maybe she just wanted a chance to press her mouth against Steve Harringtonâs.Â
Steve looked at her from all the way across the circle â if he, Tommy, and Carol were the North Pole, Tammy and Robin were the South, the antipodal point â and raised the joint questioningly.Â
âOkay,â Tammy said.Â
Steve took a drag off the joint and crawled across the circle. Tammy met him in the middle and he was gentle as he used one hand to tip her chin up, pressing his lips against hers and exhaling. Robin could only really see the back of Tammyâs head, but she was hit by a burning jealousy at the way Steve so casually touched her.Â
It felt like it had been years since Tammy had held her hand.Â
Tammy sat back beside Robin, a pleased little smile on her face.Â
âBand kid,â Carol said, smiling meanly. âTruth or dare.â
Robin shuffled uncomfortably. So far all the dares had involved some kind of sexual display with the opposite sex and Robin did not want to kiss a boy or give him a lap dance. But she also had a lot of secrets she didnât really feel like sharing.Â
She should pick truth, right? Worst come to worst, she could just lie. Itâs not like any of these people would ever know â none of them really knew her.Â
âTruth,â Robin said.Â
Chrissy started to say something, but Carol spoke over her. âWho was your first kiss?â
Robinâs cheeks flamed. Carol was doing this on purpose.Â
âI havenât had my first kiss yet,â Robin said, trying to sound casual. It wasnât that unusual, at least in the circles she ran with.Â
But Carol reacted with extreme shock, her eyes going wide, her mouth dropping open. âEver? Thatâs so sad!â
âNot really,â Robin said. Everyone was staring at her. Sheâd spent months trying to fly under the radar, and now they were all watching her and it was just as terrible as sheâd thought it would be.
Carol kept going. âBut why havenât you kissed anyone? Arenât there any boys you like?â
It would have been fine if Carol hadnât paused a little, put more emphasis on the word boys. But Carol knew what she was doing, insinuating exactly what she had when sheâd stood with Steve by Robinâs locker.Â
Everyone in the circle was staring at Robin. Jason Carver looked disgusted. Tammy pulled back a bit from Robinâs side.Â
Robin felt like she was going to throw up.
Then Steve Harrington scoffed. All eyes moved to him, to see what the King was going to say. Steve was relaxed, weight back on one hand, legs kicked out in front of him. âNot everyone is a slut, Carol.â
The like you went unspoken, but Robin saw it land. Carolâs face scrunched up with real hurt for a second, like she wasnât sure why Steve was attacking her.Â
Tommy, sitting between them, gave Steve a what the fuck look as he pulled Carol into his side.Â
Steve either didnât see any of this or pretended not to. He turned to Patrick, sitting next to Robin on the opposite side as Tammy, and said âtruth or dare?â
Robin relaxed. It was over, right? They werenât looking at her anymore?
She glanced around the circle and it seemed like everyone had moved on. A sneaky glance at Tammy showed that she wasnât sitting as close to Robin as before, but she also wasnât looking particularly repulsed. Maybe she had just forgotten to move back again.Â
Robin didnât really believe it.Â
She tried to calm her racing heart as the next few people went. But when it was Steve Harringtonâs turn, she couldnât help but tune in.Â
âSteve,â Tommy Hagan said. âTruth or dare?â
âDare,â Steve said, like every teenage jock ever.Â
Carol leaned over and whispered in Tommyâs ear and Tommy grinned. âI dare you to kiss Robin Buckley.â
Robinâs blood turned to ice. Once again, all heads in the circle swiveled to her.Â
Robin didnât want to kiss Steve Harrington. She had been saving her first kiss because she wanted it to be special. She could have pretended to like a boy, to kiss a boy, to date a boy. But she had wanted to save all her firsts for a girl â to have them be real and meaningful instead of a stupid farce.Â
She didnât have a choice though. Not after what Carol had implied earlier. If Robin didnât kiss Steve, she would practically be confirming that she was a lesbian.Â
Robin looked to Carol, who was smirking at her.Â
âYeah,â Robin said shakily. âOkay.â
Steve was watching her intently, something indecipherable in his eyes. He got to his feet and crossed the circle, kneeling down in front of her.Â
Robin didnât think sheâd ever been this close to a boy. He smelled like hairspray and beer, and his eyes were brown and serious as she watched her.Â
He gave her the same friendly smile heâd been giving her all semester, then leaned in to whisper in her ear. His breath was uncomfortably hot on her skin as he said, âtrust me.â
Then he pulled back and squared his shoulders, cocky and unapologetic about it. He smirked around the circle, a boy proud to be showing off that he was kissing a pretty girl.Â
Robin was going to throw up. Her heart was pounding and she was going to have to kiss a boy and Steve had been playing games with her all semester.Â
Robin closed her eyes, preparing for the kiss and also trying to hide the hot tears she could feel building up.Â
She jumped a bit when Steveâs hands landed on her face. He wasnât holding her jaw delicately like heâd done to Tammy. Both of Steveâs giant palms where splayed across her cheeks, one of them half caught in her hair, dragging it in front of her face. Great. Her first kiss was going to taste like hair and that wasnât even going to be the worst part of it.Â
Robin kept her eyes screwed shut as Steveâs skin pressed against her lips and his nose bumped hers and â those werenât Steveâs lips.Â
Steve was close, yes, so close they were sharing the same air. So close that it probably looked like they were kissing.Â
But this was a stage kiss. Steveâs thumb was over Robinâs mouth, his lips pressed to one side and hers to the other.Â
Robin opened her eyes in shock. She couldnât really see Steve â he was too close not to be blurry â but his eyes were pressed closed, brown eyelashes fanned over his cheeks. As if this were a real kiss.Â
Where had basketball-playing, prom king Steve Harrington even learned what a stage kiss was? This couldnât be standard practice for the popular kids â they played these games as an excuse to kiss each other, not to fake it.
And more importantly, why was he doing this? Was he that opposed to kissing her? Or had he somehow noticed her reluctance and decided to protect her while allowing both of them to save face?
Steve used his hands to tilt Robinâs head and she followed without resistance. He pressed closer, moving her back, and they still werenât kissing but it probably looked like they were making out. Like he was into this. Like she was.
Robin closed her eyes. She could figure out the mystery that was Steve Harrington later. Right now, she had to help Steve sell this.Â
She raised her hands to Steveâs shoulders, pulling him closer, hoping he wouldnât misinterpret her sudden ardor as a request for a real kiss.Â
He let out a little moan, his nose brushing hers as he tipped his head, and she smiled against his thumb. Holy shit. They were totally faking it and everyone was going to think she was a good enough kisser to make Steve Harrington moan.
After a long moment, Steve pulled back, simultaneously slipping his thumb to the side so it wouldnât be over her mouth.Â
He stayed in her space a second longer, eyes locked with Robinâs. He seemed pleased with himself, or maybe with her shocked expression.Â
He licked his lips and Robin copied him automatically. Her lips tasted like beer and smoke but it was from Steveâs hand, not his lips, and that made all the difference.Â
Someone wolf-whistled.Â
Steve backed away, returning to his seat next to Tommy Hagan. Robin was speechless as the room returned to focus.
Carol looked pissed. Tommy was elbowing Steve, leaning in to tease him.Â
âDamn, Harrington,â said some basketball jock Robin didnât know. âI didnât know you were into band nerds.â
âThat was a hell of a first kiss,â another one said.Â
Steve smiled, cocky and pleased and bashful all at once. He was a better actor than Robin had ever given him credit for.Â
Tammy nudged Robin, and thatâs when Robin realized she was still staring at Steve, dumb with awe.Â
As everyone turned to Tommy Hagan, Tammy leaned in and whispered, âit looks like you really enjoyed that kiss.â
She was trying to smile, trying to gently tease like a friend would, but Robin could see the heartbreak in her expression. Robin wished she could tell Tammy that it had all been for show and that she hadnât actually kissed Steve, but Tammy had pulled away at the accusation that Robin was a lesbian and only been okay touching her again after that performance of a kiss.Â
This wasnât a world where Robin got to have both Steve and Tammy.Â
âYeah,â Robin said, surprised to find she was telling the truth. She was glad sheâd been dared to kiss Steve and not any other boy here. There were apparently layers to Steve Harrington, who sheâd thought was nothing more than a pretty, empty-headed, girl-obsessed jock.Â
She kind of wanted to know more about him.Â
She glanced across the circle. Steve was watching Tommy try to do a handstand, until Tommy overbalanced and fell into Steveâs lap, making him yelp. Steve laughed as he leaned over Tommy, asking if he was okay, and Tommyâs eyes lit up in a way Robin recognized. The way she had probably lit up when Tammy had taken her hand.Â
In that moment, Robin felt like she understood something about all of them.Â
Carolâs frozen smile as she watched her boyfriend beam at Steve. The way Tommy pretended to fumble a bit climbing off Steveâs lap, if only to stay there a second longer. And Steveâs sharp eyes, catching Tommyâs adoration and Carolâs pain.Â
âYouâre too high, man,â Steve said, waving his joint in a big circle. Giving Tommy cover in case anyone else had noticed what Robin had.Â
âWay too high,â Carol agreed, snatching the joint from Steveâs fingers. She took a long drag, then blew the smoke out, passed the joint back to Steve, and curled into Tommyâs side.Â
Tommy and Carol looked like the picture of a happy couple and Robin realized it was another type of performance. Had Carol known before she started dating Tommy? Or had she fallen in love with him first, only realizing he liked Steve when it was too late to stop her heart from being broken?
Robin didnât want to feel sympathy for Carol Perkins, who had tried so hard to ruin Robinâs night. But she pitied her a little, watching her playact at being happy and realizing that they were all doing it. All these stupid popular kids were just pretending to be shiny, happy people and the rest of the school was buying it, standing too far away to see the imperfections that would have been obvious up close.
Steve met Robinâs eyes across the circle, bringing the joint to his lips. His eyes were perfectly clear, pupils small, not like someone who had been smoking at all. Another slight of hand, like the stage kiss.Â
âI think he likes you back,â Tammy said.Â
Robin looked at Tammy, who was faking a smile just like the rest of the popular kids. Why hadnât Robin seen it before? Tammy was brave and Tammy was kind, but she hid those parts of herself, trying to seem just as cookie-cutter perfect as the rest of the people in this circle.Â
Robin didnât want cookie-cutter perfect. She wanted real.Â
She still didnât want to break Tammyâs heart, so she said something she didnât really believe about Steve. Not anymore.
âMaybe,â Robin said. âBut like you said, heâs just a good time. Heâll be over me in two weeks.â
***
On Monday, Robin found Steve at his locker after school.Â
His eyes went wide as she came up to him and he smiled at her. âHey.â
âHey,â Robin said. She kicked the toes of her converse together. Sheâd spent all of yesterday doodling on them while watching tv. Maybe it was stupid, given how close Carol had come to outing her, but Robin was feeling a little bulletproof. Sheâd written I may not go down in history, but Iâll go down on your sister in pen on the whites of her shoes.Â
Steve looked down at her feet and smiled. âNice artwork.â
Robin froze, even though there was no way Steve could read her shoes while standing up. âThanks,â she said stiffly. âI thought they could use some, uh, personality?â
âI like them better this way,â Steve said.Â
Robin cleared her throat. âDo you, uh, wanna get milkshakes? Youâre paying, of course.â
Steveâs eyes lit up. âYeah,â he said quickly. âIâll buy you however many milkshakes you want.â
Robin rolled her eyes. âDo girls really fall for this desperate act?â
âIâm much cooler around girls Iâm interested in,â Steve said. Robin believed him this time. Heâd put his thumb over her mouth and then swaggered like heâd kissed her and she trusted him in a way she hadnât before.Â
She was dying to know why heâd done it.
âSo itâs just your friends that you bribe into liking you,â Robin teased.Â
âYeah,â Steve said, shameless. âUsually more with free rides and arcade money, but Iâve used ice cream before.â
âYouâre so weird,â Robin blurted out. Then she froze. It was practically social suicide to call Steve Harrington weird.Â
But Steve didnât get mad. He just laughed and said âyou have no idea.â
âYo, Harrington,â called a basketball player walking down the hall. âHurry up, youâll be late for practice.â
âIâm not going today!â Steve called back. âIâm sick.â He gave a very unconvincing cough.Â
The basketball player rolled his eyes. âLovesick, maybe.â
Steve scowled playfully. âFuck off, man.â
âIâll tell Coach youâre too pussy-whipped to play,â the basketball player said.Â
âDonât you dare!â Steve called. Robin expected him to sound more offended at being called pussy-whipped. No teenage boy wanted to be told he would do anything a girl told him to do, even in exchange for sex. And Steve was definitely not getting sex. But the insult rolled off Steve like water off a duckâs back. âTell him I have the flu.â
âSure, sure, whatever.â The boy rolled his eyes as he disappeared around the corner.Â
Steve closed his locker. âReady to go?â
âYouâre not going to basketball?âÂ
âNo,â Steve said. âWeâre getting milkshakes. Iâm not giving up a chance to make Robin Buckley my best friend.â
âArenât you, like, first chair?â Robin said. She watched a lot of basketball games by virtue of being in band, she knew it was called starting line. But she enjoyed seeing Steveâs face scrunch up at her words.
Steve groaned. âGod, that is annoying. Remind me to stop calling Dustinâs campaigns his nerd practices.â
âWhoâs Dustin and what are campaigns?â
âA kid I babysit, and a Dungeons and Dragons game.â
Robin blinked. âDungeons and Dragons? That Hellfire game?â
âYeah,â Steve said. âHeâs not in high school yet, so he doesnât play with Eddie as his DM, but Iâm sure heâll join in a few years.â
DM? Was that some Hellfire term?
Apparently the new Steve Harrington knew the terms to nerd games. He stage-kissed lesbians at parties and thought it was worth skipping basketball practice for a chance to be Robinâs friend.
âWho are you?â Robin asked. âAnd what have you done with Steve?â
âIâm a time traveller from the future,â Steve said.Â
Robin laughed. What a nerd. âNo, really.â
Steve started walking backwards down the hallway, keys swinging around his fingers. âIâll tell you over milkshakes.â
He held a hand out to her, beckoning, a hopeful smile on his face, and it didnât feel like a joke anymore. Robin had no clue why, but Steve Harrington really wanted to be her friend.Â
Robin peeled herself off the lockers and took Steveâs hand, their fingers twining together, letting him pull her outside.Â

like a phoenix. (2.7k words)
what if phoenix- instead of being virtually indestructible, actually wasnt? what if he was actually incredibly prone to death, but he just⊠never stayed dead?
(trigger warning for a multitude of causes of deaths!! some in detail and some not. other twâs include implied suicide attempts, implied child neglect, derealisation and thinking one is already dead. be warned! take care of yourself!)
at 9, he wakes in his bed after having a high fever and his mom ships him off to school hours after it began. he finds it odd, because last heâd checked his temperature (that morning, when he told his mom he felt like he was going to die and his mom had left to go run errands, barely sparing him a glance), his temperature had been at 107 degrees farenheit. that was definitely high, but after he slipped into unconsciousness, writhing and restless and in a lot of pain, he woke up to his mother checking his temperature and saying he was fine to head off to school. he didnt feel fine, but his temperature had gone down significantly enough that his mother felt like he had no excuse not to go. hes glad he went to school though, even as he shivered, sneezed and sniffled, because there he found a friend in a boy with a funny bowtie and a heart made of gold.
he crunches and chokes on glass shards and poison but doesnt die. the doctors dont find anything wrong with him, aside from feeling a bit ill, so he goes back into the courtroom and dollie is convicted of murder. hes happy his roommate is away for some theatre troupe thing, because the sickness eventually catches up to him and he throws up shards of glass, acid and blood. it cuts into his throat and burns his eyes and he swears, he swears he dies right then and there, freezing and shaking and everything hurts. but when he wakes up hours later, the sun having set and the only light source in his dingy dormroom the moon outside, hes amazed to not feel sick anymore. but the puddle of sludge is drying beside his face and he considers himself lucky, or maybe unlucky, because unlike dahliaâs other victims, he actually lives to tell the tale.
phoenix arrives early to the office, having been in the public library nearby reading a book on reincarnation. he enters the office and promptly has his skull caved into his brain. he does not see his assailant, but when he wakes, theres an oddly dressed girl crying, crouched over his bossâ cold body. he doesnât think about the drying blood in the back of his head, or how cold miaâs body is (and why he can even tell, considering the fact he has not touched her corpse) or the chapter in the book heâd been reading that talked about quantum immortalityâ all he thinks of is proving maya feyâs innocence.
as it turns out, being constantly anxious and terrified of mortal peril actually has its perks. maybe the fact heâs a lawyer whose only ever dealt with homicide cases definitely wasnât benefiting his mental wellbeing either. in any case, its that fear of literally everything and constant feeling of impending doom that makes his body react before his mind does. taser! danger! maya! so, he gets tasered. and it fucking HURTS, but he feels more relieved than frightened as the searing pain shoots through him, because heâd been able to push maya away before von karma got to them both. wasnt a symptom of death by electrocution an overwhelming feeling of helplessness and imminent death? maybe he was going crazy. when he comes back though, its to his head in the lap of a crying spirit medium, so maybe a psychotic break isnt too bad if it means everyone else gets to escape with no damage to their own psyche.
its only after she stops screaming in terror- oh my god, nicks a zombie!! kyahh!!!- and nearly beating him with her bulky magatama necklace, that she tells him what she saw. (âlike, there was a sudden bright light and then i realised it was coming from you! but when i tried to touch your glowing skin,â she says it like its the most absurd thing sheâd ever seen, which really said something considering the fact she was from a family of people who could channelthe dead âit was HOT! like, japanifornia summer hot! blazing! i was only able to check your pulse after you cooled down a bitâŠâ). maybe its this that makes him less alarmed by the way his skin glowed in the dark of his trashed bedroom, after drinking himself to death following a certain phone call from a terribly sad, newly bossless detective. he doesnt think he can bear the taste alcohol ever again, after that.
maybe the number of times heâs died of blunt force trauma to the head should be a cause for concern, even more so when he wakes up without any of his memories. heâs terrified, and doesnt even knows who he is, until he does, and is able to prove maggey byrde innocent. fun times! he should probably watch out to make sure his next death wasnât to the head, lest he be as mentally impaired as a number of people liked to say he was⊠(and he should probably also be concerned by the fact he was already thinking of the next time heâd die, but ah well, blame it on the concussion).
as it turns out, getting whipped to death was not on his list of ways he thought heâd die next, but life liked to mess with him like that, it seemed. still, dragging his delirious self to the bathroom of his office to try and save the infected wounds from killing him wasnât all that fun, and heâs immediately reminded of his first death, slow and painful, alone and scared of what came next. he feels bad for feeling relieved when maya shows up and screams upon seeing the state he and the bathroom (thatâd heâd accidentally trashed when his legs gave out after he opened the door, a number of bottles fallen to the floor beside him) were in. he stops her from calling the police- there was no point, he didnât have much time left. but when she asks what she could do, he goes quiet. (âŠjust⊠stay here? i dont- he coughs up a distinctly red shade of spit. maya makes a noise between a choked cry and a whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck. but phoenix was shivering worse now, and hugs himself tigher. i dont want to die alone.) so she stays with him, on the cold bathroom floor, as his labored breathing eventually slows. when he awakens, he finds maya asleep leaning against him, and promises to get her burgers as a thank you.
who knew death by a monkey throwing a giant bronze bust of max galactica at you could happen? at this point, heâs almost glad he was basically immortal, because there was no way in hell heâd allow his autopsy report to say âcause of death: monkey manslaughterâ! edgeworth would laugh himself to tears if he saw! not that he could see. or cry, because he was dead. and not coming back. damn.
so edgeworth isnt dead! yippee? he thought it was his thing to get reanimated after death, not edgeworths. when he saw him, standing in the middle of the police department, alive and breathing and very much not dead, he nearly started laughing. he mustâve finally gone insane! curse the amount of times heâd died of brain related injuries, not that he knew how many of them there were at this point. he might actually have laughed a bit, because pearls was looking at him like he was losing it (he was) but he couldnt really bring himself to care as he had more pressing issues at hand, like saving his best friend from a crazy serial killer holding her hostage, and punching his other best friend in the face for faking his own death (because really, dying was his thing! not edgeworths!). and if he pulls edgeworth into a hug immediately after, throwing caution in the wind (you only live once, right?), the warmth- a normal, human temperature, unlike his burning hot when he came back from death- is enough to stabilise his harried mind for just a moment, before he has to return to his guilty client and his hopeless situation.
by some crazy turn of events, he actually doesnt die from having boiling hot coffee thrown at his face. it burns, and maya screams when she sees the boils on his face after that first trial with godot, but after throwing a wet towel over his face and putting him in timeout on the sofa for 12-hours, the burns go away as if they were never there. he fell asleep at some point, and after alot of back and forth debate, they eventually came to the conclusion that 1. his body heat rising to burning levels when he dies must have caused his body has to grow immune to heat and 2. since sleep was like a âtemporary deathâ, a âtemporary woundâ would just heal like it did when he died of normal wounds, right? he didnât want to dwell on it too much, because maya was looking at him like she wanted to test that theory for real, so he quickly changes topics before things got out of hand.
so their theory on the immunity to heat thing was correct! âŠalmost. larry had tried to stop him, but it was fire and he was basically immune to heat, right? nope! his skin burned and boiled but he didnât die as he tried to run across the burning bridge. even so, nothing hurt more than falling through one of the burnt planks and slamming onto the surface of the freezing cold rushing stream below. luckily the death was near immediate, but unfortunately he came to while in the water still, so he swallowed a sizeable amount of water before paramedics arrived. he hears the doctors find his survival miraculous, despite the scorching hot fever he was now under. he blacks out again, and comes to in the hospital, feeling absolutely terrible.
the horribleness feels familiar though, and when edgeworth walks in, he realises what it must be, when the man presses the back of his hand to his temple and quickly pulls his hand away as if burned. (oh. he thinks, tearing up despite himself. it must be the fever. iâm going to die like this again.) his internal monologue mustâve been external though, because edgeworth balks (âagain?!â). but phoenix was crying in hiccups and sobs, feeling terrible and like he was nine years old again, wishing his mother were there to nurse him back to health like sheâd never done before. he faintly hears edgeworth sitting down on his bed and reaches out, gripping the mans waist like it was a lifeline. in a sense, it was. âdonât go.â he whispers, gripping the man tighter like heâd disappear into thin air (again). âplease, please donât go.â in his delirium, he nearly wails in despair when he feels edgeworth move, but he was only moving to readjust himself so heâs lying next to him, their bodies so close that it must burn, but the only sign edgeworth shows that heâs in pain is a wince and the crease of his brow. he allows himself to be cried on, curling a protective arm over phoenixâs burning body. âi- i dont know whatâs going on, wright, but iâm not, iâm not going anywhere, okay?â he seems to be attempting exasperation, but it comes out terrified and concerned, but phoenix is fading quickly, so it might just be his waning mind making up things that donât exist. âi am terrified. your body is life threateningly hot andâ wright? wright!â
he comes to with nurses surrounding him, and a distressed edgeworth swearing on his life that that man was dead, his body was seizing and on fire and- and his heart stopped beating! but phoenix couldnât dwell on it, because the mention of fire immediately brought him back to why he was in the hospital at all. and plus, it gave him the chance to use his best friends sensitive treatment of him afterwards to convince him to play defense attorney, so that was nice. still, he feels like he dies when he finds out dahlia had actually been iris and that godot was actually his dead mentors apparently not dead boyfriend. oh, and he was also a murderer. he also feels like he dies when dahlia- actual, serial killer and dead by execution dahlia, was exorcised from mayaâs body. but that had more to do with his soul leaving his body in terror rather than actually dying, so that was a nice change of pace⊠probably.
later, heâd had to have a conversation with edgeworth to give him an explanation on just what the hell heâd witnessed in that hospital room. although, apparently his re-aliving symptoms mustâve started becoming more dramatic, because miles describes it as his whole body glowing as bright as the sun, and then his eyes opening for a moment to reveal nothing but white, glowing eyeballs with no irises. phoenix has to convince him to still board his flight the day after, that he was okay⊠probably. maybe not safe, but definitely okay. (still, edgeworth stays the night at his, and they hold eachother close, basking in the shared warmth of two alive bodies in heat equilibrium, listening to eachothers breathing and rhythmic heartbeats, no signs of impending mortality in sight, save for, what did the french call it? la petite morte? most of all, phoenix basks in the promise miles makes to him. âiâm not going anywhere,â he repeats, over and over like he was trying to convince himself as much as he was phoenix. âiâm not going anywhere, i promise.â)
and when he loses his badge, he thinks he really does die, permanent and definitively. he feels far away from his body when the forger is called to the witness stand. feels like a ghost when the council walks out the room and past him, making no eye contact and answering the unanswered question on the tip of his tongue. feels his life crumble to pieces when a blonde man with a pleasent, almost saintly smile gives him the most maddeningly sympathetic look and tells him he is sorry for his loss, as if there really was someone dead. only, the only one dead mustâve been him, because there was no one else there who had just lost their life. he couldnât even hear himself as he laughed, which turned into sobs, as he excused himself and fleed to his bicycle. not one pedestrian bats an eye at the state he is in, so he must really be a ghost, cycling past speeding cars and large trucks and buses as if it couldnât kill him, because he wasnât there, he was already dead. when he reaches his office, freezing and quiet and dreadfully void of any human life, he passes by the window his boss had died at and sees his reflection, unkempt and red faced and badgeless. he wants to scream, but he couldnât because no one would hear a ghost scream, so instead he just sits down in the spot his mentor had lost her life in, and mourns.
when two weeks later a warm, incredible alive life falls into his hands in the shape of a little girl with a too big tophat and a joy for being alive that heâd lost years ago, well, maybe he is glad that he couldnât die for real, if only to be able to wake up to that beaming grin as his little girl tries to pull her daddy out of bed because sheâd made breakfast, and it only smells burnt because of the magic something sheâd added as a special ingredient. he eats it, char and all, because he canât taste the burnt-ness of it anyway, but he could taste the love and care put into it, and that was more than enough to take his mind away readying himself for his next death. instead, he thinks of his daughterâs next performance at the wonder bar, and their next trip to kurain, and milesâ next visit. for once, he thinks of living.

Mini Transducer for the Little Alien [Pikmin, The Girl From Tomorrow]
Read on Ao3
Read on SquidgeWorld
Or read it here.
-----------------------
When Captain Olimar finds himself on planet Earth in the year 3000, its inhabitants welcome him with joy. Not only do they invent a breathing mask for him, so Olimar can wear casual clothes while keeping his life support, but they teach him how to use a Transducer. A mini Transducer created just for him.
The Transducer is a kind of headband worn over the forehead, like a tiara. It has a teardrop-shaped black plate in the middle. On this plate is a round transparent crystal.
The Transducer focuses the power of the mind, enabling his/her user to levitate objects, heal wounds and interact with futuristic devices.
At first, Olimar has difficulty using his Transducer, even with the help of Alana and several children.
"He doesn't concentrate hard enough." A little boy told him.
"You have to concentrate!" A little girl told him.
"The Transducer is a tool for projecting your mental energy." Alana, a 14-year-old teenager and healer in training, had explained to him. "You have to feel that energy before you concentrate. It's a psychic state to achieve."
Despite this, Olimar isn't the type to give up. After days and days of practice, he manages to put himself in the right psychic state to project his mental energy. When he manages to levitate an apple, Olimar can't contain his joy. He jumps, runs and screams like a child discovering his presents at Christmas.
His behavior upset some people from the year 3000 as they have been used to controlling their emotions from an early age. Alana is an exception but she won't say why she has learned to respect expressing joy, sadness or anger. Thus Alana talks to those who have been offended by Olimar's behavior. That solves the problem.
When Captain Olimar returns to Hocotate with his mini Transducer, he can't wait to show it off and tell all about what he's discovered on this planet. Yet he's sure he's already known a planet called Earth. Could there be more than one? Hm.

COLLAPSE IN THE KEY OF FIREWORKS.
lorraine day x fem!reader
summary: growing up in rural texas circa 1979 wouldn't have been so hard if you didn't have an attraction to your best friend.
warnings: eventual smut. - mentions of homophobia, canine injury, religion / religious rebellion, paragraph mention of suicide (in a joking manner), umm that's it i think.
word amount: 4100+
a/n: not really sure how i feel about this. sorry for the long wait </3
You loved her, and you wanted to express it more than anything in the world, even if it meant being condemned to the sins your father warned you of.
You wanted her, and the feeling was more than likewise, but you just couldnât have her.
The realization did not take you forever to realizeâyour feelings for her, anyway. You knew that you wanted to drown in her gaze, love, smile, and soul the day you laid eyes on her in the back of that stone-cold silver pickup truck. It was a present given to your brother, the eldest, from your father the day he had completed his required service as a missionary, and the first thing that hick-of-a-man did was throw you over his shoulder and hurl you in the back bed.
You were twelve then, lonely as can be during the summertime, before that adorable girl with a voice sweeter than anything you ever tasted crashing down into your life, quite literally.
âHoly shit!â The truck stopped abruptly, and you had to hoist yourself to the far edge of the railings to prevent yourself from flying. You cursed under your breath the words your father would smack you day and night for if said out loud, shaking your head while jumping out of the back to see your brother fast out of the driver's seat, crouching down in the front of the truck.
âThe heck did you do, Aziel? Burrow over a rock, âcause you know Daddy will kill you if youâve already scratched this masterpiece.â
âNot no rock, no, but a dog. Cute one at that; Iâm so sorry for this.â He spoke solemnly, and you found his frame hunched over as you cornered the truck's front, petting the head of a dog thatÂ
whined in pain. âCome on, little miss. Iâll take him to the hospital for âya, just join this devilâs spawn in the bed,â he pointed to you, though your eyes were glued to the dog, âand weâll be there in no time, alright?â
âOkay,â and it was that saccharine tone that caught your ears, head perked up to lock your gaze on a girl, quite the small one for the age that matched yours, with cute little freckles spread out across her cheeks and her eyebrows furrowed. Concern laced her voice, and her face too, for the dog that you assumed to be her pet, and you felt bad for the girl that made your heart flutter instantly at just the sight of her.
She wore shorts that rode just to the edge of her knees and a tight white top tucked inward. Your father would have dealt you well for even thinking of such an unwomanlike outfit, contrasting her choice of clothing to your pink skirt and fitted light-blue long-sleeve, your denim jacket hanging over you loosely that you clung to when the winds picked up. The girl was beauty in a jar, if that even made any sense, and you knew from the start that you wanted nobody else but her.
âHere, hold off for just one second,â you warned the girl with a tight expression, being sent a nod as your hands clung to the metal of the bedâs railings, hoisting yourself up greatly to get yourself over and into the open space. You turned the knob and let the bedâs opening fly down, lending a hand to the girl with an injured dog cradled in her arms, to which she joined you on the bed with the utmost struggle.
âIâm sorry about him, by the way." The girlâs head perked up at your voice, a bit gruff from a sickness that seemed to loom over you. âMy brother. He hasnât always been the brightest, and Iâve been juggling in my mind for the past ten minutes or so about why my Daddy decided to gift him a darn truck.â
A small smile etched her face at your words, her hand mindlessly petting the dog cradled in her arms, and a sort of glint in her eyes that you seemed to pass over. God damn, did you still hate yourself to this day for how awkward you grew to be in that moment, failing to make direct eye contact with the girl who wanted nothing but her small âol doggie to be well.
Your eyes subtly lingered over her shirt, stopping abruptly at the crimson-colored stains that donned the fabric with hatred. The girl was more than aware of the stainsâshe could feel her shirt melting into herâbut she could have cared less at that moment when her canine, whom she loved more than herself, was itching and writhing in pain.
âHere,â you got up from your spot against the metal railings, kneeling in the middle of the bed, to the girlâs confusion. âGetting stains on that shirt, yeah? Wrap this over âem,â and in front of her, resting in your hands, was the denim jacket that you always wore, stolen from your brother the day he left town, and with no intentions of returning it upon his arrival.
A small âthank youâ left those chewed-up lips of hers, bitten and torn from her stressful mind that hoped for her dog to be alright, and you know youâd be getting on Aziel after the situation had died down and the girl was long gone. Long gone, you hoped she wouldnât be, because you hadnât seen a face as pretty as hers in your short lifetime, and you didnât want to imagine how long it would be until you saw it again.
Sooner or later on that breezy day, you found yourself perched on a chair in the waiting room of an animal hospital, feet swinging to the soft guitarra tunes mixed with solid tapping noises from beside you. The girl had her finger curled, her nail hitting the wooden armrest of the chair and scratching it ever so lightly, seemingly in need of taking her mind somewhere else.
Aziel was elsewhere, outside in a small payphone box that would trigger anyoneâs claustrophobia, the dirty black-wired phone clinging to his ear while his head was drawn back; you could only assume he was growing tired of your father's voice through the transmitter, berating him for his reckless actions. You almost felt bad for him.
âWhat if heâs dead?â
That sweet, worried voice tore you away from your brother's frame, turning to face the new-found girl whose eyes bore into your face, tears brimming at the edges of her eyes just at the thought of it, and your heart sank.
âThatâs no way to think, uh..."
âLorraine.â She answered simply, eyes never tearing from yours, and you grew mildly uncomfortable at the continuous staring. You didnât hate itâno, of course notâbut you werenât accustomed to having a pretty girl stare at you like that.
âWell, Lorraine,â you managed to turn your head away from her, resting them back on your brotherâs frame, his posture slumping as time went on. âI love him to deathâmy brother, I meanâbut oh,â your eyebrows raised, and your breath hitched when you felt a cool, soft palm brushing over yours on the wooden armrest, knowing the girl was only ever looking for comfort.
You finished your sentence with a new-found shake in your voice. âIâll kill that son of a bitch.â
Before Lorraine could reply, the door where the veterinarian had previously taken her dog opened, and you surprised yourself at how quickly you rose from your seat. Lorraine gave you a look before standing up as well, sighing in the utmost relief when her eyes laid on her dog wrapped in a blanket, his chest heaving up and down to signal that he was alive.
"Oh, thank God!â Your head twisted to see Aziel at the front entrance, and his head hung in relief at the living animal. âI was going to bury myself in deprivation if that cute âol thing died.â
âThere would have been no need for you to bury yourself because I would have gotten to your Bible-praising ass before you could even shed a tear.â You barked, and Lorraine paused a second of her relief to react, a small smile etching her face at your words of protection.
âYou better watch that mouth, sissy, because Dad would rip you a new one if he were to find out.â He threatened though you waved him off; he was all talk, managing to tick off every nerve that held patience within you whenever he pleased, and you still held shock in the back of your mind whenever youâd admit you couldnât live without him and his childish attitude.
âHeâs going to need care. He has two ankle fractures and stitches on his back that you ought to watch out for to make sure he doesnât bite at them.â Lorraine and Aziel were the only two to listen to the veterinarian, while your mind took you elsewhere; the sun had gone down by then, as it had been over two hours since the truck-dog massacre, and you were sure Lorraineâs parents were concerned about her whereabouts.
âWe should probably get her home now, yeah?â You had proposed after the veterinarian had retreated and the small dog rested in Lorraineâs arms, earning a nod from Aziel, who seemed to collect in his mind that Lorraine had a family that she needed to return to, pulling keys from his pocket and ushering the two of you out.
You settled in the backseats of the truck, finding it dangerous enough to ride in the bed, while Aziel got cozy in his driver seat. âWhere do you live, girl?â
âThe east.â Both you and Aziel turned your heads at her answer, seeing as the two of you resided in the Northâhell, you picked her and her dog up in the Northâbefore Aziel questioned her. âYa positive? What were you doing out here in the North?â
âWe were heading to a relativeâs house, and my Daddy needed some gas; his truck stopped in the middle of a dirt road because the thing was empty, and he told me to go up to a gas station that was about five minutes out to ask for a gallon. Told me to take Atticus here too,â she said, bending her head down to kiss her dog on the forehead. âThey ainât give it to me, and I was on my way back when..."
Aziel visibly cringed at the remembrance, and he gave Lorraine one last look of sorrow before turning in his seat, cranking on the engine, and setting off east. âSo, what? Your parents are worried sick now that youâve been gone for hours, yeah?â
âGuess so. Daddyâs always been protective of me, calling me his little girl and telling me to always stick by him, but he needed to watch the truck, and I guess he figured Atticus would be enough protection.â Your eyes trailed to the dog in her arms, and you tried to understand how her father could think a dog that small could protect her. âGod, heâs never going to let me out of his eyesight ever again.â
âI wouldnât either if I were him.â Azielâs grip on the wheel was harsh, his eyes searching the road every second to keep watch of anything. âHis little girl ainât come back; Iâd think you were kidnapped.â
The rest of the ride was silent after that, disregarding Lorraineâs soft coos to her drowsy pup when he eventually woke, and you could see Azielâs hands shake when the truck grew closer to the home address Lorraine had previously given. âYour fault.â
Your voice rang when you pushed yourself up to whisper in his ear, his hand finding your chest to push you back in your seat and away from him. Soon enough, the truck came to a stop outside of a houseâa ranch, to your surpriseâwith a man in a cowboy hat and tucked flannel top sitting on the porch, clearly in distress, while a woman sat right beside him.
Before Lorraine could open the truck door, you put a hand on her shoulder to stop her, and she turned to you with curiosity in her eyes. âDo you thinkâuh?" Your voice caught in your throat, searching for the right words, while Lorraine had a small smile tug at her lips. âUh, whatâs your house number? The phone number, I mean, to the house. You know, how every house has a phone number because thereâs a house phone in every-â
Her voice cut you off, and you could only thank the night sky for covering your reddened cheeks. â82-97, 500.â She gave you a sweet smile before turning the door handle, letting herself out while continuing, âFirst three numbers are the state code!â and shutting the door, soon embracing her worried father's arms.
When you returned home, you were instructed to sleep in your room while Aziel was forced into the living room, and the numbers recited from Lorraine repeated in your head as you trudged up the stairs, ignoring the shouts of your father toward your missionary brother.
â5âŠ2âŠ9âno! 8âŠ2âŠ9,â you scratched the numbers on a blank piece of paper in ink, "7, 500."
You were lost in your thoughts, trying to accumulate the state code numbers from far in your mind to let the sound of footsteps become known to you, and before you knew it, your mother was standing in front of you with her hands settled on her hips. âI thought I told you to go to sleep, (Y/N)! Stop whatever it is that youâre writing, read off your nightly verse, and go to sleep!â
That day was one you could never forget. It was the day you met your best friend, your teenage-long crush, and also the day you got to ride in a truck bed for the first time. Lorraineâs father, to his continuing demise that you refuse to call him anything other than Mr. Day, was more than reluctant to let Lorraine out of the house after the incident, but your natural charm didnât take long for him to put trust in youâthat youâd take care of his little girlâand soon enough, you were forcing Aziel to drive you down east every weekend to go hang out with the girl that clouded your every thought.
Your feelings toward her never mattered anyway, right? She certainly never felt the same toward you, or so you thought. You knew that the trajectory of two girls together would never be accepted in the eyes of your parents, in the eyes of your church, and in the eyes of the man whose verses you read in a book every night and whose practices forced and consumed your everyday life.
Soon enough, it started to concern your parents as to why you hadnât found a lover at the growing age of seventeen, having overheard a conversation between them one night about the possibility of lining up suitors, shocking you to the very core. So when the next boy came around, annoying you more than life itself at your school locker before popping the question, âCan I take you on a date?â You could only swallow your pride with a choked-out, "Yes,â leaving your lips before scurrying away.
That relationship didnât last longâmaybe three monthsâbefore you had enough of his continuous attempts to shaft his hand into your pants. You ended your relationship with him after a dull day at the state fair, and he could only accept reality after being knocked out by Lorraine after attempting to assault you in a bathroom stall.
The day after, you sealed in place your love for the girl. How could you say anything to her, though? Express your feelings and get something out of her besides rejectionâa scenario that you deem impossible. The internal battle kept you up at night, and deciding not to fight it any longer, you forced Aziel to drive you up to Lorraineâs ranchhouse on a cool Friday night.
You probably should have just stayed home, because that would have temporarily avoided the heartbreak words that left her mouth after you had settled in her room. They were not ones of rejection.
âI have a boyfriend!â
âWhat?â The words came out of a nervous impulse, your face falling to sadness. That went unnoticed by Lorraine, whose face had lit up in excitement at finally being able to tell you. âYes! His name is RJ, and heâs in my film studies class. Heâs so sweet, charming, and so nice, (Y/N)!â
If only Mr. Day had shotgun bullets pre-equipped in the barrels, you would have taken yourself down to the garage, where the weapon lay, and shot yourself without another word. You felt sick, and you felt sicker when that fateful day came around the next week when you had to meet the boy she raved about.
Boy, did that only make you question your self-dignity? He looked to be eighteen going on thirty-five, and you bathed in anger at the way Lorraine looked up at him with such admiration glistening in her dark-brown eyes. You yearned for that look.
Then, alas, the day you waited for came eight months later.Â
You had accompanied Lorraine and RJ with your âboyfriendâ, Danny, who in reality was just playing along to the toy game of you and him being eitherâs significant others, benefiting you for hiding your true identity and for Dannyâs mother to get off his back about never having a woman by his side.
You had a limp in your leg, trying your utmost hardest to recover from the death trap that was the spinning teacups, berating yourself for trusting Danny to not send the two of you spinning like a couple of toy fidgets. In the end, his actions were limited to himself, and to keep himself upright as his head spun as quickly as he did, he tightened his hold on your shoulder.
The sky was fading to darkness, reminding you of the upcoming end of your day, but you couldnât think about that when you heard the deafening cries of a girl sounding in your range, a cry that you knew all too well.
âYou hear that?â Danny plugged a finger in his ear, fidgeting around the canal with the assumption that his mind was getting the best of him. âGet your finger outta your ear, will ya?â You put a hand to his forearm, yanking the limb to the side with a slouchy cry from the darning boy. âYou made me scratch my ear!â
You only hushed him with the sound growing louder as if it were heading toward the two of you. It took a one-eighty to find the source of the problem, coming face to face with a crying Lorraine headed in your pathway at a directionally fast pace, no intention of stopping set in her quick feet as salty tears dribbled down her cheeks.
You held the girl without question when she crashed into you, burying her face in your chest with a mighty clutch to Dannyâsâsecretly yoursâleather jacket, and your heart broke at the sight of her in such a distraught state. Why was she crying? Where was RJ? Was he the cause of her crestfallen shadow?
But you couldnât pester her with questions; no, that would be irresponsible of you and rid you of all the mannerisms you were forced to learn growing up. You turned to Danny with a solemn look on your face; he was already looking back at you with a sense of confusion laced in his furrowed eyebrows, and you wordlessly cocked your head to the side to give him a signal of your temporary departure.
He shook his head, headed in the other direction with a slight pat on Lorraineâs shoulder, and you drove the other girl in the silenced direction of haystacks originally laid out to be used as sitting stations. However, nobody at the fair seemed to pay any mind to the location. Her crying never let down, sobbing in her hands while you rubbed her back in comfort.
It was only when she finally came down from her teary state that you carried the question, âWhat happened?â When she looked at you, your reassuring smile fell, analyzing her furrowed eyebrows and narrowed, red eyes, which made you wonder if she was agitated at your question. Should you not have asked?
Her staring never faltered; it looked as if she were analyzing youâyour face, to be preciseâand your breathing grew heavier as your mind grew less shallow at the impending thoughts that infiltrated your mind. âRaine, Iâm dearly sorry if I said somethinâ wrong. Iâm just worri-â
âShut it.â Her voice came out in a whisper, and like a trained dog to its commander, your lips were sealed. Lorraineâs tone was cracked, weary, and dried out from all the crying she had endured not moments before, but now she had formed into a new human. If it werenât for her reddened eyes, stuffy nose, and pinkish ears, you wouldnât have had a clue she was in a former tainted state, and there before you, her pupils scanned you all over. Like⊠if you were someone she hadnât recognized for years beyond that point, as if you were a whole new person to her.
You had no idea what thoughts circled in her mind at that moment, and if you did, you might have burst.
âIâm not crying because of RJ.â
âThen why are you-â
âI said shut it.â Your lips sealed once more, obedient to Lorraineâs words in the same way you had always been. It was never like you had anything better to say, anyway.
âI broke up with him, but thatâs not why I was crying. I was scared of the truth âcause itâs nothing but wrong in other eyes, and Iâve always wanted to perfect myself in the eyes of myself and others. Now, I canât.â You could see from your peripherals that her hands were shaky, fiddling with one another, and her mind was a swarm of second questioning. She couldnât go back by then, though.
âI donât think I ever liked RJ entirely. I feel bad about it all âcause I think I was just using him to cover up my truth.â Lorraineâs eyes had flickered off of yours for a moment, eyeing her fidgety hands before looking back toward you with a different glint in her eyes. You had never been more confused in life than then, and you wanted nothing more than to question her for miles ahead.
âI think this entire time, Iâve loved someone else.â To your oblivious mind, you couldnât pick up the secretism behind her words or that glint in her eyes, and your heart broke at the idea of Lorraine finding attraction to another man, another person that wasnât you.
âWhatâs his name?â
The corner twitches of Lorraineâs lips vanished, and the gleam that once filled her eyes left to form confusion before realization. âGod damn it, (Y/N)!â She pushed herself back with a huff, and it was then that you recognized how close she had been toward you.
âWhat?â
Lorraine gave another large breath, filled to the brim with annoyance. âWhat? What? I had this entire thing planned out since last month, just for you to not understand it!â
âUnderstand what? Raine, youâre really confusinâ me he-â But you couldnât finish your sentence when something was blocking your lips from movingâmore noticeably, someoneâand you didnât move. You didnât kiss her back, no, but it wasnât because you didnât want to. You dreamt of this moment every night, and you didnât fucking move.
The three second reign it took for Lorraine to register that you had frozen in place rushed her out of her tranced state, the ecstasy coursing through her to finally feel your lips on hers. Her former relaxation and calmness at the ability to finally let her feelings out turned to fright. Did she just ruin a friendship with someone she labeled her lifeline because of her stupid, homosexual thoughts that she figured you would reciprocate?
â(Y/N), uhm, I-â But she couldnât finish her sentence either, because, like you, there was someone blocking her lips from moving. That fright, the one that her body turned to, disappeared just as quickly as it settled in, and she sighed in relief as she wrapped her arms around your shoulder to bring you in closer. That feeling she felt in her stomach was something she had never felt kissing RJ or any other boy, and man, did it feel fucking amazing.
âJust- just one thing, Raine.â Your voice came in a hushed whisper, moving forward to rest your forehead against the girl you claimed to be your whole word. âYeah?â
âWe ainât gonna tell nobody about this, âcause you know we canât.â
That was the truth, one that broke both of your hearts. âI know.â

me when riki serves bf core
battery level; â 10% or when youre so tired that even riki knows how to handle it
you were especially tired today. you dont know why. you woke up today, exhausted, you got ready for school, exhausted and came home from school, exhausted. riki knew that your classes can sometimes be a lot to handle. hes also an expert in how you act, others think he may be more on the clueless side of things when it comes to ur feelings but its quite the opposite.
'hi pretty' 'hi ki' a simple interaction was all it took for riki to notice you were down. its been hours and all youve done was start on your paper, if you call an intro paragraph starting.
once you finally finish your paper (after locking in) you go up to your shared bedroom and see riki playing video games, having done his own work a while ago. he knew you needed some space, so he left you to do your work. you walk to him and stand behind his chair, putting your hands on his shoulders. you dont say anything, knowing you could embarrass him while 'playing with the homies'. he looks up,
'hi pretty, you feeling better?' he shuts off the pc, leaving his friends mad. he spins his chair around to face you. you nod in response, he stands up and hugs you tightly before leading you to the bed, he lays down and pulls you down with him and although you guys talked maybe three times today, all the hugs made up for it
a/n: uhm academic comback this year?? i have such good grades guys i might tweak out. IM SO SORRY TO THOSE HWO ACTUALLY WAIT FOR ME TO POST, I SAID ID POST AND I HAVENT IN LIKE A MONTH, ive been so drained and feel really pressured rn so ive been taking for time for ms!

Doting
Summary:Â When Mia's sudden stomach pain turns out to be appendicitis, the Cullen family's doting nature comes out. Takes place pre-Twilight/ Bella, but not by much (it's the same school year).
Characters: All of the Cullens are present, but focus is mainly on Carlisle Cullen, Esme Cullen, Edward Cullen & Mia Cullen (OC)
Content Warnings: medical stuff - ER visit, appendicitis, appendectomy, surgery recovery
Twilight (Mia Cullen) Masterlist
It was usually Carlisle and Edward who monitored the majority of Miaâs medical needs. It was Carlisle and Edward who did the assessing and diagnosing, determining the need for a visit to her pediatrician or the emergency room. Determining what could and should be cared for by them at home, knowing that she received a fair bit more at-home care than most children did because most kids didnât have a father and brother with medical degrees. Most kids didnât have so many people paying such close attention. Most people didn't have so many people close who cared and had the ability to see in one way or another what was going...
Most people didn't have a Carlisle or an Edward, with their medical degrees and their decades of experience and knowledge.
Most people didn't have an Alice who had visions of the future or a Jasper who could sense moods.
But even so, it had been Esme and her motherâs intuitionâher thorough knowledge of her youngest childâwho figured out something was wrong with their Mia.
Mia had been quiet when she came home from school, slightly withdrawn as she went through the motions of saying goodbye to her siblings before they left for their hunting trip. No one questioned it. Mia understood why she could go, but she was always a bit disappointed when the others left her behind.Â
She first mentioned the stomach ache after they left, declining dinner and informing Esme that her stomach had been off all day. Mia figured it had just been nerves about the science test that was worth 40% of her grade this quarter, and when the test had passed but the unease in her stomach didnât dissipate, Mia assumed she had caught a bug. It seemed likelyâit was flu season after all.Â
But the flu didnât feel like this. It could be awful, sure, but the persistent pain Mia had feltâŠshe knew it was something more. And it was something she couldnât hide or explain away. She was in enough pain that she didnât even care to hide it from her mother. Mia was in enough pain that she didnât fight when Esme announced that they needed to go to the hospital.Â
Mia only braced herself against the pain as her mother situated her in the front seat of the car, too engrossed in her discomfort, too desperate for relief to even be bothered about where they were going.Â
It was Carlisleâs new resident, a bright-eyed young woman who grew up and attended college and medical school on the other side of the country, moving to Forks 6 months ago for her training, who greeted them and examined Mia while Carlisle was busy treating a farmer who had the misfortune of having his arm stuck in a piece of farm equipment.Â
It was the resident who endured Miaâs screams as she gently pressed her fingers to Miaâs stomach. It was the resident who had studied the sonogram images of Miaâs abdomen. It was the resident who explained to Esme and Mia the diagnosis and the prognosis and the next steps. It was the resident who prescribed some pain killers while they waited.
Mia was resting by the time Carlisle was able to get away, curled into the fetal position with her head in Esmeâs lap, both of them huddled in the hospital bed.
Carlisle kissed his wife and stroked a cool thumb across his daughterâs flushed cheek before pulling the chart from the end of the bed. He had already been briefed, but he liked to see the blood work for himself. Liked to see her vitals. Liked to be sure for himself even though he trusted his residentâs assessment.Â
As soon as the appendicitis was diagnosed, they started the medicationsâantibiotics to fight the infection and pain killers to help keep her comfortable.Â
Carlisle knew his daughter would be fine. They had caught it before the appendix ruptured. She would have a quick surgery and head home. She would recover and have little to show for the whole ordeal aside from a memory and a small scar that would fade to nothing over time.Â
âSheâll be okay,â Carlisle said, unsure if the assurance was more for himself or for his wife. âFlanders is a terrific surgeon.âÂ
Esme nodded at her husband before looking back to their daughter, smoothing back the sweaty hair on Miaâs forehead. Esme had been so grateful when Mia fell asleep, so grateful for the speed with which the IV-administered pain medication had swarmed her daughterâs system, swiftly easing Miaâs torment. But there was a fear that still refused to budge, a worry that had settled itself in Esmeâs heart and every fiber of her being.Â
Carlisle pulled her to his side and kissed his wifeâs forehead, careful that the movement didnât disturb their sleeping child. Carlisle knew the words wouldnât be enough to soothe Esme.Â
The wordsâŠThe knowledge that she would be fineâŠThat an appendectomy was standardâŠeasyâŠNone of that had soothed him either.Â
The only thing that would offer any relief was seeing their child on the other side of this.
â
The surgery was laparoscopic. Minimally invasive. No complications. She was discharged home on the same day from the recovery room with discharge notes and a prescription for pain medication.Â
Mia was asleep on the couch, settled between Esme and Carlisle when the front door burst open, Edward emerging with a wild look in his eye. It was a full minute before Alice caught up.
âSheâsââ
âI sawââ Alice began, the words caught in her throat as the vision sheâd seen flashed in her memory again. Edward swallowed as it washed over his mind as well.Â
âSheâs fine,â Carlisle said, his gaze drifting towards the front door as Rose, Jasper, and Emmett came into the room. âOur Mia had appendicitis, but your mother spotted it in time and sheâs healing.âÂ
Carlisleâs words and the sight of their sister sleeping peacefully brought some reliefâCarlisle could see the slight change in each of his children as they integrated the information, taking in his assurances.Â
Even so, he extricated himself from the sofa and crossed the room to pull her discharge papers from his bag. He wordlessly passed them to his son for review before glancing back at Mia.Â
Jasper stood a ways back, but the others had taken up the space Carlisle had vacated, crowding around Mia as she continued to sleep.Â
She would be fine. More than fine. While she recovered, she would be cared for and doted on almost too well. She would receive far better care than any hospital could offer.
Carlisle had taken a few days off from the hospital to be with her, but he knew it wasnât truly warranted. Mia had more than enough volunteers ready to help nursing her back to health.Â
âShe should be up and moving soon,â Edward murmured as he looked over the papers. âEven if she doesnât want to be.âÂ
Carlisle nodded.
âShe did a little walking at the hospital before they released her.âÂ
âHow did she do?âÂ
Carlisle answered through a glance and a small smirk that told Edward his sister had been full of complaints through every step she took.
âYour sister is a terrible patient.â
âAnd theyâll do nothing but enable her,â Edward said, nodding toward the others.Â
âA little doting wonât hurt her,â Carlisle mused, knowing that he planned to dote a little himself. He glanced at Edward. âYou were able to go hunting?âÂ
âBarely,â Edward answered, his gaze moving to Jasper who was still at the edge of the room and keeping a distance. âThe others should head back out.â
âAnd you?â Carlisle asked.Â
âIâll be fine,â Edward answered. âIâll stay.âÂ
Carlisle snorted softly. âGo hunt, son.â Carlisle took back the discharge papers.Â
âI shouldââ
âYour sister is safe,â Carlisle interrupted. âAnd she'll be asleep for a few hours still. And your mother and I are here with her. Take your siblings back out to hunt.âÂ
Edward looked torn, his dark eyes settled on his sleeping sister. Carlisleâs gaze remained on his son as he watched his sister.Â
You can have a turn doting on her after youâve fed.
Edward glanced at Carlisle. He hadnât said it aloud, but Edward heard it all the same.
The nourishment will help you better navigate the recovery.Â
Carlisle hadnât said it or even thought it, but Edward knew that what Carlisle truly meant was that feeding would give him a little more patience. Feeding would help Edward navigate his sisterâs complaining about getting off the couch and completing her exercises and following the discharge instructions with the least amount of bickering. Feeding would lower the odds of Carlisle and Esme having to play referee.Â
What Edward didnât realize was that Carlisle also meant that before Edward could care for his sister, he needed to care for himself.Â
What Edward didnât realize was that Mia wasnât the only Cullen Carlisle was doting on.Â
Carlisle placed a hand on Edwardâs shoulder, squeezing once before he crossed the room and began the process of ushering his other children from the room, communicating the plan to resume their hunting trip to the others while giving Edward the opportunity to approach Mia and Esme on his own.Â
Esme gave a gentle smile as Edward approached, sitting on the edge of the coffee table in front of them. Edward took the hand Esme offered.
âSheâll be fine,â Esme said. âThey all said the recovery should be simple.âÂ
Edward raised an eyebrow. Esme chuckled, a bit of light entering her eyes for the first time since this ordeal started.Â
âWell, it should be simple when it comes to the medical piece, at least,â she amended.Â
Edward snorted, barely a sound emitted as he did it, but Miaâs eyes fluttered open anyway, locking on him immediately.Â
âEdward?âÂ
Some tension Edward hadnât realized he was holding shifted at hearing her voice. Esme released his hand. âHow are you feeling?â
âLike I got my appendix out,â Mia mumbled, the hint of a smile on her lips though it disappeared as she shifted position, her face suddenly scrunched up as she winced at a lash of pain.Â
âCareful,â Edward said, his hands instinctively shooting forward to steady her.Â
âIâm fine,â she hissed, though she was far from it, a small bead of sweat forming at her hairline and a bit of foggy exhaustion creeping in after just a few minutes awake, after just a few seconds of misguided movement.Â
Edward gave his mother a knowing look and Esme schooled her features, but Mia had somehow caught it, even distracted as she was with her pain.Â
âItâs not funny. I just had surgery andââ
âYouâre awake,â Carlisle said gently and as if it was the best news in the world. He offered a smile to Mia as he approached, his sudden presence easily putting an end to a rant he knew would only rile her up.Â
âEdward, the others are waiting for you,â he said, squeezing Edwardâs shoulder.Â
Edward nodded. âIâll be back soon,â he offered to Mia and Esme before standing and moving slowly towards the front door.Â
âHow are you feeling, sweetheart?â Carlisle asked as he took Edwardâs place on the coffee table.
Edward slowed his steps as he waited to hear Miaâs answer, hoping sheâd give their father a more honest and complete answer than she had given him. There was none of the sarcasm Edward had receivedânone of the bite in her voice eitherâas his sister answered Carlisleâs question with a question, her voice small and timid.Â
âCan I have some ice cream?âÂ
Edward stopped by the front door. His instinct was to return to the livingroom and answer. To interject and relay the instructions heâd just read in the discharge summaryâshe was restricted to clear liquids only for 24 hours post- surgeryâbut Carlisle answered before he could get the words out.Â
âHow about a popsicle?â he offered instead, just as well-versed in his daughter's discharge papers as the son who still lingered by the front door.Â
Edward didnât hear his sisterâs answer, but he heard Carlisle stand and cross the room, a doting sentiment sent his way as Carlisle walked toward the kitchen.Â
Go ahead, son. Sheâll be fine.

Research
âAll your preferences. All your secret places. What pleases you. How to drive you mad with toe-curling, soul-shattering ecstasy.â Your entire body tingles from the hard twitch against your thigh. âI've barely scratched the surface.â
Summary: Gale and Mia do some very vigorous research.
Set after Chapter 7 of The Difference, in which Gale discovers the existence of Gale smut. (The Difference is a reverse isekai fic in which Gale portals into modern day England and learns that in this universe, he is a fictional character in a video game, with a significant fandom.)
AO3 link
Word count: 1.5k
Disclaimers: NSFW. 18+. Smut. Mutual masturbation. Gale-coded dirty talk.
A/N: The piece of smut Gale and Mia refer to is Words. Totally meta and self-indulgent, I know, but I couldn't resist doing the smut within smut / smutsception thing đ€Ł
Bon appetit, Galemancers đ«¶
*****
As you step into the bedroom, you are momentarily winded by the sight of him. He is a vision against the headboard, naked and tousled, brow wrinkled in intense focus. The bedsheets crumple haphazardly around his lap, offering a tantalising glimpse of his happy trail. He looks up from the phone in his hand, his eyes blazing as they fall on you.
Your flesh still steams from your shower. Water beads and trails down your neck as you wring at your dripping hair. His gaze snags on the towel wrapped around you, flashing with hunger, unabated despite your earlier exertions. There is a flush on his cheeks, mirroring the heat that flares inside you whenever he is near.Â
You catch your breath. âWhat are you reading?â
His lips curl in a sideways smile. When he starts reading from the screen, his voice is low and silken. From the arch of his brow, you are certain he knows the effect it has on you.
âYou lean up on your elbows, and it is then that you see Gale, jerking with the movements of his own pleasure as he laps and sucks at the centre of your fire.â
You laugh a little. You are not entirely surprised. Gale has been nothing but enthusiastic since you revealed the plethora of online smut centred on him. He has been especially enthusiastic about your demonstrations, insisting that you repeat several of them. You have not refused.Â
âThatâs a good one.â
He bobs his head. âOne of your favourite pieces.âÂ
âYou've been taking notes.â
âOf course.â His eyes dance. âCopious notes. Reams of them.â
When he climbs off the bed and strides towards you, you linger on the hard planes of his muscles, his broad shoulders framing his narrow waist. You savour the thick trails of down peppering his bronzed skin, the sharp cut of his hip bones guiding your gaze steadily southward. His desire is a proud curve, alert and ready. His arms snake around your hips as his tongue flicks at the damp nook of your neck. You tremble at his touch.Â
âAren't you tired?âÂ
He nibbles at your earlobe. âMost certainly not. I've had a rest.â
âClearly not if you were reading that.âÂ
He tuts, his open mouth trailing down your cheekbone, lingering at the corner of your lips.Â
âResearch, my love.â
You turn, half-lidded, sucking his bottom lip into your mouth. When you release it, he inhales roughly.Â
âYou've done some pretty vigorous research already.â
He unwraps your towel like a gift. When he tosses it across the room, the flick of his wrist is an invitation. You weave your arms around his neck, aching for his heat on you, around you, inside you. His fingers drift down your spine, drawing tender, teasing circles around the dimples of your back.Â
âThe work of a scholar is never done. The quest for knowledge never ends.â
You gasp as he suddenly clasps the cheeks of your ass. His grip is firm. Determined.
âAll your preferences. All your secret places. What pleases you. How to drive you mad with toe-curling, soul-shattering ecstasy.â Your entire body tingles from the hard twitch against your thigh. âI've barely scratched the surface.â
You press against him, burying your face in his mussed hair. It is intoxicating, the headiness of his sweat, the sour sweetness of your passion. When you trace the shell of his ear with your tongue, he quivers.
âYou have some pretty robust evidence.âÂ
Your teeth graze his earlobe. His breath judders, his beard a maddening rasp against your skin.Â
âOne should never be complacent where knowledge is concerned.â
One of his thumbs nestles into the cleft of your ass. You buckle into him, your thighs clenching against the wet flame that burns through your every nerve.
âI pride myself on being meticulous.â A stray finger circles the peak of your nipple, the soft underside of your breast. âMy attention to detail is unparalleled.â
The look in his eyes is ravenous. You whimper at the pulse of his cock against your core, the stark demand of him. He lurches backwards, pulling you onto the bed with an urgency that winds you. Your mouths meet in a desperate frenzy, an eager exploration of tongues, a flurry of moans. When you draw back, you are both panting, aflame.
You stop for a moment to take him in. Splayed out beneath you, locks tangled, chest heaving, a single bead glimmers and falls from the tip of his cock onto his chiselled abdomen. A work of art.Â
âTaking in the details?â
It takes all of your self control not to eat him raw. You bend down, swiping your tongue over the pearl in his slit. He spasms, groaning. You look up at him open mouthed, turning his nectar around on your tongue, savouring his taste. His eyes are dark, blown wide with pure, unbridled need.Â
You reach for his hand. Slowly, painstakingly, you take each of his fingers in your mouth. Your tongue glides up and down each length, lapping and sucking, coating each finger thoroughly and meticulously in your spit. You smile as you whine, as he flinches and hardens. Strings of saliva thread between his moist fingers and your gleaming chin when you come apart.
âIâm not sure we've explored this avenue yet.â
You press his slickened hand onto his cock. His eyes widen before he grimaces at the tightening of your fingers around his. His cock surges against the pressure, bursting for relief. Realisation dawns on Galeâs face as you remove your hand, pushing away gently to settle back on the bed. To watch.Â
That huff. That sideways smile that drives you wild.
âThat was the moment, I suppose.âÂ
You raise an eyebrow. He nods towards your phone, discarded beneath the sheets.
âThe climax of that piece you love. Quite literally.â
You chuckle softly. âOnly you could turn literary analysis into foreplay.â
He widens his thighs, shifting his position. You bite your lip at the lean bulge of his thighs, the curves of his strong calves. When his grasp glides to the base of his shaft, the practised elegance of it tears through you.Â
âThe brain is the seat of arousal, as you well know.â
He begins to pump, each stroke slow and deliberate. His tongue flickers over his lips as he watches your face, following every detail, missing nothing. You are entranced by the reddening throb of his length, the thick veins trailing down his girth. Glazed in your spit, his cock pulses under his lithe and slender fingers. You cannot resist.
âWhat if I told youâŠâ
You sit back, spreading your legs. You tease your fingers between the path of your breasts, pausing at the damp down just above your mound. When you part your swollen folds to expose your wetness, the moan that sputters from him is like a spell.
â...That I get off from thinking about you like this?â
His hand stops for an instant. You let out a little whimper, disapproving, pleading. His gaze is voracious as you angle your pelvis, pressing downwards into the sheets. You begin to grind, rubbing your throbbing clit against the mattress, unravelling at the growing ache. When he thrusts into his hand, you muffle a cry.
âDoes that turn you on? Knowing how wet I am?â
You cannot hear his reply. He resumes his rhythm, slapping up and down his stiffness with increasing fury. The sheets rustle and the bedframe heaves as you lurch to his frenetic beat. A trickle of sweat rolls down his chin, pooling at his nipple. His free hand clutches at yours, insistent, imploring. He looks at you, features clenched with the pain of desire. You have rendered Gale speechless. You have never felt so aroused.
âShow me.â
You dip your head towards his cock. Drips of delight trail down his blanched knuckles, down the taut veins on his wrist. You spasm, your fire building with each pump and grind.
âShow me how much you want me.â
The whine that erupts from him echoes your own. He struggles to hold your gaze as his eyes roll back, abs rippling and back bowing as he pounds up and down his shaft with growing abandon. You writhe as you watch him draw nearer and nearer to the brink.
âMia,â he moans. âGods⊠MiaâŠâ
You clutch at your thighs, your breasts, your nipples, your touch becoming his fingers digging into your skin.Â
âShow me, Gale,â you breathe. âCome for me.â
He grunts and gasps, teeth gritted with urgency. You roll into the burning friction of the sheets as his hips snap frantically into his clenched fingers. You are raw with the frenzy in his engorged frame, wild and bursting with need. When he cries out, streams of release spill from the pulsing perfection of him, spraying onto his chest, trickling into the deep grooves of his abdomen. The hairs beneath his navel shine. He twitches and keens, and you can barely breathe as you surge forward to take his spent tip in your mouth, still rigid against your tongue. He shudders violently, letting out a sound you are certain is reserved for you alone.
You have no time to respond. He springs up with sudden force, pinning you back against the bed. Panting, blazing, he grabs your fingers and plunges them onto your slick, aching clit. You throw your head back with a groan.
âNow,â he rasps as he draws back, settling against the headboard, âitâs your turn to show me.âÂ

I am reading One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston, and I saw some review that was like âugh itâs too idealistic, itâs like the authors just putting on a performance for the audience rather than telling a storyâ and Iâm like yesss, but thatâs the point. Theyâre indulging us. As I was reading I kept getting so excited, like Iâm less than half through (so this might not hold up) but I kept just thinking no way, how does everything keep happening so perfectly, this is like fanfiction of an actual book, or written like the dreams I use to fall asleep.
And then I was thinking (aside from the fact thatâs exactly how I feel about Red White and Royal Blue politics criticism), thatâs what defines all my favourite movies. Theyâre all built to indulge us. Thereâs Legally Blonde and Little Women and Oceanâs 8 and Mamma Mia and Midnight in Paris and Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and theyâre all designed to give us exactly what we want, in ways that are bold but nuanced and more often than not flippin stunning. Itâs why Heartstopper was so revolutionary, and more generally why we love fanfiction and romcoms.
In conclusion, thatâs why the Barbie movie is going to be a cultural reset.
