ok but like would y’all read a wild ass doctor who ff??? like i have this harry potter/ percy jackson (+ other fandoms) oc that i’ve been wanting to put into doctor who… but idk if it’s too many fandoms in one bc i have crossover addictions… idk why. the main focus would be doctor who with like possible references and mentions of the other universes. i do also wanna make a “main” series, this doctor who ff would prolly be like an “AU” book of the main series (that i haven’t even written yet but i’m currently hyper fixated on dr who so this one would be written first). it would also lowkey be loosely based off my doctor who dr (desired reality) :)
possible summary ⬇️
Persephone Jackson, daughter of Poseidon, witch, Jedi, and former protector to the Slayer, has spent the past few years longing for peace. After the chaos of gods and monsters, she moves to Leadworth, hoping to start fresh. Reuniting with Amelia Pond, a girl she saved as a child, Seph believes she might finally find some normalcy. But a calm life is not in the cards for an immortal demigod.
Only a few months into her stay with Amy, the Doctor arrives, shaking up her newfound life. Seph quickly realizes that she's not just dealing with aliens and time travel, but with a Doctor who seems to know more about her than he's letting on.
As they face Daleks, Weeping Angels, and ancient gods, Seph must come to terms with her past and her immortality. Will the universe allow her the one thing she's always wanted—peace—or will destiny pull her back into the fight?
⬆️
but anyways. would y’all read something like that?

Chapter 3/?
× Elysium (noun) : a place or condition of ideal happiness. type of: fictitious place, imaginary place, mythical place.
Word Count: 9.3k
Masterlist
A Noah Sebastian x OC Series
× Summary: Noah and his new found (sort of) friend, Persephone, battle the trivial ins and outs of being teenagers in a world that doesn't accept you. They survive together all the way into adulthood - with bouts of loneliness included - where the world is still a fickle bitch.
× Warnings!: language, violence, slowburn, friends to lovers to enemies back to friends, rinse and repeat (not even in that order), eventual smut, sexual themes, etc. Each chapter will have its own set of separate warnings.
× Author Notes: ( 1 ) And there I go again with the too much rambling and making chapters entirely too long. What's the preference when it comes to things like this? ( 2 ) Don't forget that there will be no smut or sexual descriptions while Persephone is still a minor aka anytime before 2016. ( 3 ) Another time jump will be coming up within the next chapter. As I stated before, I'm not trying to dwell too long in the past for them, but my brain always has a way of dragging things out. This may also be the last chapter of Seph as a minor... ◔‿◔
× Chapter Warnings!: language, brief sexual themes
SUMMER OF 2014
FRIDAY AUGUST 1st
NOAH
“Did you guys hear about Persephone?”
Everyone stared at the dark haired girl - now known as Alexa - after she dropped down into the booth next to Folio, waiting for her to continue.
“Ya know, after her party last weekend?”
Christ, if this girl didn't just spit it out. Noah didn't want to hear about Seph, no, but he for some reason felt anxious about whatever was about to be revealed. It already wasn't sitting right with him.
“Well, her parents apparently came home early because someone cut their security cameras back on to the live setting, and they saw all of it. The people, the alcohol, the huge mess she hadn't been able to get cleaned up yet. It was bad.”
Alexa was nodding as she spoke, though she was now taking a long pause. They could sense she had more to say, so Noah made a face for her to continue, which she huffed and did. Folio’s new girl was cool and all, but damn did she have a flare for the dramatics. She also had this weird power of knowing everything about everyone. It was a little scary.
“A little birdy told me that Seph then had a masssivveee breakdown. I'm talking a full on freak out. She trashed the place even more, broke some priceless vases her mom had, got blood everywhere because she accidentally cut herself on the glass or some shit. Yeah, it was insane. Something legit right out of a movie.”
Noah was fighting back the urge to spew his lunch everywhere. His stomach was churning, his insides turning every which way, and there was no end in sight for it. He was avoiding everyone's gaze, instead choosing to stare at a blank spot on the table while processing what Alexa was saying.
“Who did you hear that from?” Nick spoke up, obviously suspicious of the story. He was the only one who really knew what happened between him, Seph, and Maisie that night, so of course he was going to dig deeper.
“I shouldn't even be telling anyone this, but my brother was a paramedic at the scene. He said he thinks it was all stress induced, but some people are saying she was on drugs.”
“No, she didn't do drugs.” Noah shook his head, refusing to believe that rumor. It was clear there was a lot that Seph needed to work on, but he wasn't going to let her name be dragged through the mud over something he knew wasn't true.
“Drugs, no drugs. Doesn't matter. Her parents sent her away to some facility up state but they're telling people she's spending her senior year studying abroad in Sweden or somewhere posh sounding like that.”
“That's fucking wild,” Folio sighed while shoving a couple of fries into his mouth. “Pretty bummed I only got to go to one of her parties.”
“Shut up, Folio,” Noah heavily exhaled, his thumb and pointer finger rubbing and digging at his eyes.
There was a part of him that didn't believe it, or rather didn't want to believe it. But if Alexa's brother was there, then he had to admit that was a pretty reliable source. And after what he saw that night, it was all pretty plausible.
Fucking hell.
SPRING TO SUMMER 2015
PERSEPHONE
Fingertips lightly traced the tiny delicate scars that now scattered across the top and bottom of her hands. There was a point months ago when she was worried about how they would heal, nervous as to whether or not they'd always look red and angry. Thankfully that wasn't the case, for they were small and white, barely noticeable unless you were close enough or already knew they were there. The soles of her feet carried identical scars, all because of the shards of glass she had stupidly walked over.
“We've still never really talked about why you thought you couldn't seek help or guidance, Persephone.”
Although she heard the older woman’s question, her eyes remained down on her hands. The same scars she had stared at for days upon days were way more interesting than whatever bullshit she was going to try prying from her today. Only sometimes did she give the woman a bit of information, just to tide her over so she could report to her parents that she was making ‘great progress’.
“You really want to know?”
“Well, yes, of course.”
Slowly nodding, Seph took in a deep breath before dropping her hands into her lap and finally lifting her gaze to the older woman. She held her pen at the ready, fully prepped to scribe down anything of importance she may divulge.
“I figured there was no point in ever telling people about what was happening inside of me. It was best kept inside, like everything else.”
“Why did you feel that way?”
Seph shrugged, arms crossing over her chest in a defensive manner. Yep, the woman was right on it with that damned pen too. Of course she was going to take note of her stance.
“Because people don't want to hear about the difficulties of life coming from someone like me.”
“Someone like you…what does that mean?”
“You know what it means. You're in my father's pocket, after all.”
Everyone at this ridiculously irritating place was. The only employee she had become slightly friendly with was a second shift nurse who let her use his phone, but of course for a price. Gross, not like that. He wanted money, just as everyone did. $100 for fifteen minutes. Can you believe that?
The woman eyed her from across the room. She was waiting for her to continue because obviously her smart ass remark wasn't a sufficient answer.
“Someone who has the means to do anything and everything. Never a need for anything. Someone who has all of their material wants satisfied. That kind of person.”
Seph twisted her lips and looked out the wall of windows within the office. God, she couldn't wait to be out of this place.
“People tend to forget that material items aren't everything, though. At the end of the day, they don't fucking mean anything. I can't talk to a purse. I can't voice my frustrations to a goddamn overpriced car.”
This made her laugh, the sound of it echoing through the otherwise quiet office. Her therapist didn't seem to find it as funny, but that was okay. She wasn't trying to spit jokes at her anyway. It was all the truth.
“You don't believe your parents could see that you were struggling? What about your friends?”
Ah, of course the woman was going to try to get all the answers she had been seeking from the beginning. A part of her was starting to think that she didn't really care about how Seph was, she just wanted to know all the gritty and secret details of a man’s family who basically owned her.
“I didn't have friends, not really. Well…I had one, but he was a new friend. He wasn't ready to learn all of my inner workings.”
Persephone could tell the woman wanted to dive into this ‘he’, but she wasn't going to give her the opportunity. Noah was not going to become a pawn in her sessions that could be used against her.
“And my parents were never around, so no, they didn't see a damn thing. It took it literally blowing up in their faces for them to notice.”
That was enough talking for today. Seph was mentally tired of this gymnastics routine she was forced to partake in multiple times a week, and now all she wanted to do was get the hell out of there. Both the office and the facility as a whole. Though mainly the former right then because it was nearing the time for her to be out a hundred bucks.
Once she was given the ‘okay’ to call it a day, she couldn't have scurried out fast enough. And like perfect clockwork, Ben was waiting outside of her room, ready to collect. They didn't say anything to each other as he slyly slipped his phone to her, then carried on down the hall until he would circle back fifteen minutes later.
Seph hid within her bathroom, her body uncomfortably seated within the empty bathtub with the curtain drawn. She didn't know why this is where she felt safest making calls, but it's the one and only place she had done it since her first month there.
One ring.
Two rings.
Three rings.
On the fourth, the call connected and she was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
“Pom,” he answered without missing a beat, his smile easily heard in his tone.
“Hey, peach,” she softly spoke, immediately feeling more like herself as soon as she was in friendly company.
“Did you make all the doctors happy today?”
Seph snorted out a laugh, rolling her eyes to herself. “Well, I didn't threaten any of them, if that's what you mean.”
“Ah, so progress! That warms my heart.”
“I think they're going to let me come home soon. Therapist number two was really digging in. But how's things there?”
“If you want to ask about him, then you can.”
The smile she wore slowly began to fade, her eyes fixated on a random spot of her sweatpants that she had started picking at.
“No…I mean…is he okay? I'm not going to come home to him having lost a leg or something, right?”
Nick laughed, and she just knew he was shaking his head. “I can say with absolute certainty that all of his limbs are still intact. A one legged front man would be pretty badass though, yeah?”
As much as Seph wanted to get lost in thoughts of Noah, she couldn't bring herself to do so right then. She had to save that for those particularly hard moments while she was locked away.
“Did you tell her?”
A female voice in the background broke through, followed by a hushed response from Nick that she couldn't make out. There was some shuffling on the other side, then he was heavily sighing before speaking up again.
“Shit, Seph, I hate to do this…but I don't want you to come home and be blindsided.”
“You're really freaking me out right now.”
“Alexa heard that your dad…yeah! I'm getting to it!” Again Nick huffed, and this whole thing being drawn out was literally going to cause her heart to beat out of her chest.
“She heard that your dad is trying to press charges against Maisie…for the video of you and Noah. Some shit about child pornography, I don't know. Apparently she sent it to her brother, so that's not only possessing, but also distributing.”
“What the actual fuck, Nick?!” Seph quickly covered her mouth with her hand to muffle her outburst, which allowed her a moment to take a deep breath and count to ten.
“No…how? How is he going to do that when nothing happened in the video? It was just us kissing and his shirt coming off. Not mine!”
“I'm not a lawyer, Seph, I don't know. That's just what Alexa heard, so it could hold zero weight.”
“Does Noah know?”
“Yeah…apparently your dad also paid him a visit…fuck, I wasn't supposed to tell you that.”
More hushed voices rambled off in the background. The main one she could make out was from Alexa still, but a new one had been added that caught her off guard.
“Who the hell are you being so secretive with?”
His voice came through loud and clear this time, so Seph assumed he had lowered the phone to play it off like he wasn't on it. Not very smart, Nick. Not smart at all.
“Huh? No one. I was just gonna order a pizza.”
“Nick, you're a terrible liar. What are you doing?”
Seph sunk down further in the bathtub, a hand holding her forehead in complete disbelief for what was happening. It was the first time she had heard Noah’s voice since she saw him last, and of course it had to be when she was talking to his best friend on the down low.
“Pom? Who’s Pom?”
NOAH
There was a brief moment of tug-of-war as he tried to wrestle the phone from Nick. Never had his best friend kept something from him, at least not to his knowledge, but especially not when he had been caught red handed.
Finally, Nick gave in and released the device, allowing him to turn it around until he could clearly read the name plastered on the screen.
“Pom? Who's Pom?” His brows furrowed in confusion, though he still lifted the phone up to his ear. There was no sound on the other end, except for the very faint hint of a breath being taken. Then, the line went dead, the call ending from the other side.
Nick was staring at him with wide eyes and he could already see the explanation just waiting to escape him.
“Dude…I'm sorry,” he began, hands holding out in a defensive stance. “Pom is Seph…ya know, like pomegranate? Persephone is a goddess who-”
“I know who Persephone is! I understand the reference, Nick!”
“Right, yeah. You know how she would always say 'you're a peach' to me? Well, she just started calling me peach one day and it stuck, so she became Pom and it was just this dumb thing to help her while she's away, and -”
“You've been talking to her this entire time?”
Nick paused, his body relaxing for a brief moment as he thought back to when their first conversation could've been.
“Not the entire time…probably since last September?”
Noah was really hoping Nick could feel the fire in his glare, because boy, was it intense. What the hell was he supposed to do with this information? Should he even be mad? It was honestly the fact that Nick kept it from him that really pissed him off. Why would he? Unless…Seph had asked for him to.
“She doesn't want to talk to me.” It didn't take much for him to put it all together. Seph was complicated as all hell, but she could be predictable at times too.
“No, she does. She does, okay? She hasn't straight up told me why she won't, but my guess is that she's embarrassed. I don't know! I'm not an expert on teenage girls!”
“You two are just best friends now or something?”
Nick heavily exhaled, his arms dropping down to his sides in defeat. A silence settled between them, one that was just long enough for each of them to gather their thoughts. Or, at least try to.
“Dude…come on.” Nick shook his head slowly at Noah, a look of disbelief beginning to move across his features. “Don't make me seem like an asshole because I was trying to be there for her.”
That's exactly how Noah saw it, though. Although he wouldn't always have this opinion on the matter, it's how he felt currently. He wanted to be the one there for Seph. He wanted to help her through whatever it was she was struggling with. She wouldn't let him be that person, though, and that's what really stung.
Fuck, why was he letting a girl he had been friends with for a month plague his mind like this?
“It's whatever, man. I'll just see her when she gets out, I guess.”
Noah didn't want this to become a huge conflict between him and Nick. As easy as it would've been for him to argue his point right then, it wasn't worth the headache. Nick was his best friend, and had been for years, while Seph was only just a girl he had developed an infatuation with.
PERSEPHONE
“I know it's bad timing, dear, but your father and I expected you to be home next week.”
On and on her mother went during the drive home, all while Seph spent the duration staring out the window. Her fingers were itching to get a hold of her phone but the device had yet to be given back to her - of course. Honestly, she would be surprised if her parents let her have it back at all.
But at least it seemed like the snow queen was over the disastrous ending that was her beloved vases.
“But, we’ll have a nice dinner as a family tonight, then he and I will be back Sunday evening.”
Seph wanted to laugh at how ridiculous her mom sounded. When did they ever have nice dinners together? At least one, if not both, of her parents always ended up wandering off to take business calls in the middle of meals, leaving her to eat alone. What was so nice about that?
“Does that sound like a plan?”
Forcing a slight smile, she finally looked over to the older woman and nodded. “Yeah, sounds good to me.”
Although Seph could tell that her mother was trying, she was curious to know how much of it was genuine. They had never had a strong relationship to begin with, but that was expected given how her parents chose to put their careers ahead of their daughter. Seph used to be sad about it, though she stopped caring as much the older she got. Them not being around sure as hell didn't stop them from putting the pressure on whenever possible.
× × ×
“No, the doctors said her medications may make her…unlike herself for a bit.” The woman spoke in a murmur to her father upon their arrival home, as if Seph couldn't hear them.
“A bit? She's been on them for nearly a year now. How much time does it take?”
“However much it does, Chris. I don't know.” Her mother retorted, the annoyance evident in her tone.
Seph didn't hear much more because she had made it to the top of the staircase, now aiming straight for her bedroom. She just wanted to be alone for the first time in forever. No worries of nurses and doctors barging in, or the occasional fellow patient that tried to make friends with her.
There was a sudden halt in her steps when she entered her room. It definitely wasn't how she had left it aka in an utter mess. No, it was thoroughly cleaned now. Nothing out of place. Just as it usually was before things began to truly go downhill for her. Shaking her head to herself, Seph pushed her suitcase off to the side to tend to later, her gaze glancing over to her desk. Lying on top were multiple college applications, as well as letters from others she had applied to before leaving. Columbia, Brown, Dartmouth - ‘her’ top choices. Not really. Those were actually choices that belonged to her parents.
With furrowed brows, Seph carefully shifted the papers around. Her lips moved as she quietly skimmed over the gist of each letter, her anger bubbling with every word. All the letters claimed acceptance for this year’s fall semester.
“What the fuck?” She muttered to herself just before she abruptly pulled her hand from the pages. She couldn't handle this right now. The last thing she wanted to think about was what her father had been up to while she was gone. Paying off universities? That was a new low for even him. No way in hell would they have willingly taken her after everything, but Seph was sure their minds were changed as soon as her dad made a hefty donation. How many libraries or community centers now had their name plastered across them?
“Oh…you've already seen the letters.”
Seph lifted her head to see her mother standing in her doorway, a slight uneasiness to her.
“Well, they are on my desk. Seems like someone wanted me to see them.”
Marilyn, the snow queen in question, took in a deep breath and heavily exhaled while crossing the threshold inside. She immediately approached where Seph stood, her own hands frantically shuffling the papers together and then tucking them beneath her arm.
“No need to worry about those right now.” Reaching back with her free hand, the older woman then retrieved something before extending it out to Seph. It was her phone.
“I figured you could use a bit of normalcy again.”
Hesitantly, Seph accepted the device, slowly nodding.
“Thanks,” she lowly spoke.
This whole demeanor that her mom was portraying was very out of the ordinary for her. She couldn't help but to be slightly taken back by it. Maybe it made it appear as if she wasn't actually thankful, although she was. Who could blame her for being suspicious, though? After what had happened, this was the last sort of interaction she was expecting.
“Dinner will be at six, okay?”
Seph watched as her mother walked away, giving her a small nod in understanding. Once she was gone, she followed the same path she took, only to quietly close the bedroom door to allow her some privacy. There was then a need within her to get her phone turned on. She rushed over to the side of her bed where she typically had her charger plugged in, relieved to see that the cord remained. After inserting it into her phone, she waited a few seconds, then the Apple logo popped up.
A sigh of relief left her, her body lowering down to sit on the edge of her bed. As the device powered on for the first time in who knows how long, notification after notification began to flash across the screen.
grl are you okay??
i'm worried!
Alexa
Heard about your incident. Dramatic.
Seriously? Call me.
Stop being a baby. I'm sure daddy made sure you have your phone.
Sweden? That's laughable. You hate fish. You'd never survive on the cuisine.
No one believes that's where you are, by the way.
Your dad is fucking insane!!!!
Maisie

damn it's gonna suck to not have any infamous Seph parties senior year!
Aw hope you have so much fun abroad! I loved it when I went!
u are not gunna believe wat i heard about u
Random “friends”
I miss you.
Noah
It was a horrible idea for her to read any of these, but she couldn't bring herself to look away. There were a lot that she deleted, most being from unknown numbers or people she hadn't even spoken to since way before all of this. Everyone obviously just wanted some entail and they thought going directly to the source would work out for them. Oh how wrong they were.
The last message she read was what really got to her, though. She assumed Noah had known the truth of what happened pretty early on, meaning that his text from only a couple of months ago was honest. That's what she was telling herself, at least. Every other text thread was deleted except for that one, then she started a new one.
‘Home. Need to see a friendly face.’
Seph stared down at the screen as if Nick would have already replied when she knew he was busier than usual these days. The band, working at a tattoo shop, it all left very little downtime for him and the others. But much to her surprise, the little gray bubble appeared, indicating that he was typing.
‘FUCK YEA DUDE!!’
'Come by the shop!’
'I'm here working on some pieces until probably 9’
It was impossible for her to explain how at ease she now felt knowing someone was excited about her being back, especially when that someone happened to be one of the only people she considered a friend. Getting close to Nick had come out of left field; definitely not done on purpose since she always felt like he only tolerated her for Noah. Who ever would've thought they would've gotten as close as they had while hours away? It was all strictly platonic, though. She looked at Nick as more of a brother type, and she knew he viewed her the same. Well…as a sister, but same sentiment.
After dinner, she would slip away and somehow make it to the tattoo shop Nick had mentioned a few times. Maybe she’d get lucky and her parents would do their usual routine of acting as if she wasn't even there, just so she wouldn't have to awkwardly crawl out of her window. Plus, that would also mean they wouldn't realize she had left. Perfect. All she had to do was make it through dinner…
Well, that wasn't currently going so well.
Her favorite meal had been cooked for the night, though her appetite was nearly nonexistent these days. Was it the mental issues? Or the meds she downed to help fix said issues? Either way, a few bites was all she could stomach.
“Not hungry?” Her mother spoke up first, her lips showcasing a sympathetic smile.
Okay, seriously. What the hell had gotten into her?
“No…not really. Sorry.”
Marilyn shook her head in a way to silently tell Seph that it was okay, but before she could verbally respond, her father was beating her to it.
“You need to eat,” he demanded as he eyed her from across the table. “It'll help you feel better to have decent food again.”
Seph stared at the older man, inwardly biting her tongue to prevent herself from saying anything too rash. No need to cause an argument on her first night back.
“I don't think I'll be feeling too great when this doesn't sit well and ends up in the toilet.”
A heavy sigh came from her mother, who then covered the sound by taking a long swallow from her glass of wine. Ugh, she should've snuck a few sips for herself before dinner began.
Although Seph could tell that there was something needing to be said that was right on the tip of her father’s tongue, he remained silent. The daggers he glared at her were loud enough. Before anything could be set off, she carefully slid her chair back and stood up.
“Where are you going?” Her father sternly questioned as she walked by with her sights set on the front door. Seph snagged a set of car keys and clutched them tight within her palm, fully prepared to make a run for it if she really needed to. Hopefully it wouldn't come to that.
“I just need some air.”
There was a start of a protest from her parents, but she didn't linger long enough to hear whatever it was they had to say. She was already out the door and closing the distance between herself and her mom’s car.
× × ×
It was a blessing that she knew downtown Richmond like the back of her hand or else she never would've found the tattoo shop tucked in along the congested street. There was a neon red ‘open' sign glowing in the window, but nothing beyond that really told you what the business was until you were right on top of it. Not too surprising to her that the guys would work somewhere low key.
There was a faint jingle from the bell above the door as she entered the building, though she figured the bell was only for show because the music playing inside easily drowned it out. A girl with multiple piercings shining on her face sat behind the front desk, and the opening and closing of the door caused her to look up at who could possibly be coming in near closing time.
“Hey…” she hesitantly spoke, though a polite smile was visible on her lips. “I'm looking for Nick.”
Piercing girl glanced over her shoulder and leaned back in her seat a bit as if trying to see something just out of reach.
“Do you have an appointment?” She questioned after returning to her resting position. “We aren't taking walk ins right now.”
“Oh…no…I'm just a friend of his.” Seph almost blurted out that she wasn't even old enough to get a tattoo, though she figured that surely would've gotten her kicked out. “He told me to stop by.”
“Seph?”
A familiar voice broke through before either of the girls could exchange any more words. She lifted her eyes to see Nick stepping through a door that led to the back, both of them sharing near identical smiles at the sight of each other. Seph slid around the counter and rushed over with quick steps, her arms immediately being thrown around his neck to embrace in a close hug.
“Peach!” She excitedly exclaimed while her arms squeezed him so tight that she was convinced she was cutting off his ability to breathe. Never had she and Nick really even touched, yet here they were, embracing each other as people within the tattoo shop awkwardly sideyed them.
“Your hair!” Seph gasped as she pulled back to look at him, her hands now grasping his shoulders. Nick mimicked her stance, laughing as her eyes scanned all around his face and the new tattoos he adorned. “You cut it!”
“People tend to get haircuts every now and then,” he continued to laugh.
“Yeah, but it's kinda all mullet-y now! I love it!” It didn't matter that he had a beanie on in the middle of the summer. She could still see those new layers.
“If you think I look different, then just wait until you see Noah. Dude has grown at least two - shit, sorry, Pom.”
The smile she wore began to fade at his mention of Noah, her grip on his shoulders loosening. She didn't like this reaction her mind and body immediately had to his mere existence being brought up. Hopefully this glitch in her system would work itself out.
“It's all good,” she shook her head. “I'm gonna have to face the music at some point, yeah?”
Nick gave her a sympathetic smile to accompany the gentle squeeze of her shoulder. He then nodded his head towards the door he had come from, motioning for her to follow.
“Come on, let's get away from all this fucking noise.”
Ushering her into the back room, Seph was greeted by what appeared to be a break area; a table with a couple of chairs, a fridge, couch, and all the other workings for people to be comfortable when working long shifts. In front of the couch there was a coffee table with different sketches strewn about it. She assumed this is what Nick had been working on.
“I had no idea you were doing tattoo stuff,” she muttered softly while approaching the coffee table to gaze down upon the drawings.
“You never asked.” Nick shrugged, his body bent to peer into the fridge towards the back of the room. “I mean, I never really asked things about you either, so I guess we're both assholes.”
Seph glanced back at him, extending a sheepish smile. “Sorry. I've had a lot going on up here.” She motioned to her head before lowering down onto the couch.
Nick was following suit not too long after, his hands holding out a bottle of water for her while the other clasped around a beer for himself.
“Hey!” She laughed, eying the other beverage. “Not fair!”
“What? You're not old enough to drink.” Nick chuckled while taking a swallow from the can.
“Neither are you!”
Although her eyes narrowed at him in a glare, she was only joking. She released a dramatic sigh, but then took the offered water and twisted the cap off. “You better be glad I shouldn��t drink with my meds.”
After taking a couple of sips from her water, she carefully placed the bottle on the coffee table and then tugged the sketchbook into her lap. She began to slowly flip through the pages, though she hadn't even bothered to ask if she could. Oops.
“How is…all of that going, by the way?”
“Fine, I guess,” she gave a single shoulder shrug. “Everything is amazing and perfect.”
Nick’s eye roll was so pronounced that she swore she heard his eyes somersaulting in his skull. He then sighed, his face telling her that he was not convinced.
“You're full of shit,” he smiled despite the attempt at a serious conversation that she was trying to shoot down.
Seph laughed, nodding. “Yeah, I am.”
With a pause in her page flipping, she glanced over to him, seeing that he was staring directly at her. There was no way he was going to drop the topic. As annoying as it was, Seph was a little…touched that Nick cared enough to actually ask. Not even her parents had.
“I don't really like them,” she honestly revealed. “They always make my brain feel like it's in a fog. I'm mega tired, nothing tastes good, and all I want to do is rot in my bed.”
A finger then tapped the page she had been staring down at, the drawing that of some sort of creature with horns. She had no idea what it was, but she liked it. “This is cool,” she complimented with hopes to change the subject.
Seph knew she should've known better than to even attempt it.
“Hey,” Nick tried to gain her attention, which she eventually gave him by lifting her head and meeting his gaze. “You know you can talk to me, right? Noah, too…he’d probably sing about it all night if you did.”
Offering a faint smile, she nodded. “I know…it's just hard talking to anyone about things, but especially Noah. Opening up has never been easy for me.”
As easy as it would've been for her to elaborate on this, she didn't. She wasn't trying to make this a pity party for herself. Coming by to see Nick was actually supposed to be the exact opposite of that.
Nick leaned forward a bit, his elbows resting on his knees and both hands grasping the beer can. “Talk. To. Him.” He further explained, this being his final attempt at trying to get her to do what they all knew needed to be done.
“You'll end up regretting it if you don't.”
× × ×
It was that conversation that landed her in the guys’ shared home the following night. Again she had left her own house without explanation; fully ignoring her parents on her way out. They seemed to be letting her do whatever for now, though she wasn't sure how much longer she would be able to push her luck. Whatever. They should just be glad she had finally ditched the sweatpants for a pair of shorts and slapped some makeup on her face for the first time in a year. It was minimal, but at least she cared enough about something to try.
Nick had claimed it was only going to be a small get together, but the ten to fifteen people mingling around told her otherwise. No, it wasn't anywhere near the level her parties had been, but it was still a bit much for someone in her current mental state. Seph was determined to power through, though. She was desperate to return to her old self. At least in some aspects.
“Oh my god! Sephy!”
There was barely time to react before Alexa was rushing to her, forcing her into a tight hug that she had not been prepared for. She still smiled, choking out a soft laugh as her hands hesitantly patted the girl's back.
“I thought I heard Nick say something about you being back! Oh my god! This is amazing! How are you?!”
While her and Alexa had been kinda friends before this whole thing, she wouldn't have considered them to be close. They were acquaintances at best, though she was assuming things were going well between her and Folio if she was still hanging with the guys. Guess that meant she would have to stay on her good side as well.
“I'm good! Yeah, things are going good.” Seph nodded once they had broken from the hug. She felt as if she was going to be telling this lie a lot going forward.
Alexa gasped and held onto her arm, her eyes going wide as she looked back to the room she had just emerged from. “Have you seen Noah yet?! He's going to be so fucking stoked to see you. I know it.”
Opening her mouth to speak, she wasn't even able to get a word out before Alexa was pulling her along to the next room. Her voice called out for Noah, repeating his name a couple of times.
“Look who's finally back from Sweden!” Alexa gently bumped her with her shoulder as she laughed, and when she glanced over to the girl, she winked at her. Huh, okay. Was everyone just going to be in on this joke?
“Sweden?” A guy with long dark hair that was pulled half back she didn't recognize spoke up, a bright smile taking up his face. “Hallå!”
Alexa laughed again as she reached out to his shoulder, shaking her head.
As much as Seph wanted to figure out what that was about, she was now far too lost in the other guy that stood in front of her. Noah. Her eyes stuck to him, unable to look away, though she didn't want to. He had definitely filled out some within the last year and his hair was much longer, but it suited him.
Also, when the hell had he gotten a neck tattoo?
NOAH
Persephone fucking Hill.
In his house.
Staring up at him with awe.
Fuck.
What the hell was he supposed to say? Good to see you? Wow, so glad you're free? Nice tits?
Okay, definitely not the last one. That was a bad thought for him to even have. But still, nothing felt like it would be the right thing to say after how things ended.
“Long time no see,” he then blurted out.
Goddammit. That was lame as fuck.
Noah could sense both Jolly and Alexa picking up on the awkward vibes because they took simultaneous swallows of their drinks and then slipped away in a nonchalant manner.
“I probably wouldn't have even recognized you if Alexa hadn't dragged me over here.” Seph chuckled, and he knew immediately that she was just as nervous as he was. That was a bit of a relief.
He wanted to tell her that that was okay because he would've spotted her within seconds. The words didn't leave his mouth, though. Actually, no words did. Noah continued to stare at her, both of them holding the other’s gaze.
No, he couldn't get caught up in Seph again. It wasn't good for him. It wasn't good for her. Neither of them were what the other needed. That's what he had been telling himself for a year as he tried to get over her. Noah wished he could say that it had worked.
“Noah…can we skip the weirdness of acting like we don't know each other? I've had a lot of time to think about how this would go, y’know, when we saw each other again, and every interaction I imagined was awkward…to say the least.”
Seph laughed as a hand lifted to tuck her hair behind her ear, her eyes tearing from his for a brief moment. He inwardly frowned when this happened, already missing the sight of her honey colored irises. But when she didn't look back at him yet, he finally nodded and glanced around the kitchen.
“Do you want a drink? I can fix you something.” Noah was already reaching for bottles before she could reply because of course he remembered her favorite mix: fruit punch and vodka. He found it revolting but he had a fond memory of her mouth dyed red one night when they sat in her backyard, and she was telling him some story he didn't remember all because of said red dye.
“Sure…but hold the vodka.” She placed a hand on his wrist to stop him from untwisting the cap of the liquor, the small touch like fire on his skin.
“I'm not really drinking at the moment.”
It then dawned on him that Seph was probably on some medications she had been instructed not to mix alcohol with. He was tempted to tell her that it would be fine because he did it all the time, but this maybe wasn't the time. Seph was a big girl. She could make her own decisions.
“Oh, yeah, that's cool. Just fruit punch it is then.” As he set the vodka bottle aside, he instead grabbed the juice and filled the cup half way before passing it her way. She gazed at him from over the rim while taking a sip, that sight alone making him weak in the knees.
Get it the fuck together, Noah.
“This is probably when I should tell you that I'm sorry…”
It seemed as if apologies at parties were starting to become their new norm. He couldn't say he was very fond of it.
Noah took in a deep breath before swallowing from his own drink, his head shaking while lowering the cup.
“You don't have to do that, Seph. Seriously. Ancient history.”
He watched as she shifted awkwardly before leaning a hip into the kitchen island they stood behind. She looked basically the same, though maybe a few pounds lighter and her hair was longer, just as his was. Noah assumed the former had to do with the lack of decent food, and probably just a lack of appetite all together. He understood how it could be when starting medications.
“I saw your text.”
Noah froze, his mind racing to figure out what she was talking about. He then remembered the one message he had sent a couple of months ago when he had been up way too late and lost in his thoughts. It happened a lot but he usually had enough self control to not message her. That night, not so much.
When he didn't say anything, she continued.
“I missed you too.”
That made him scoff, head shaking while taking another generous swallow of his drink. He looked off to the side as if interested in whatever his friends were doing, but he was actually trying to hold back his words.
Glancing back to Seph, her brows were furrowed in confusion.
Noah shrugged, fingers tapping against the side of his cup he held. “I need to talk to you about something.”
With no other explanation, he placed a hand against her lower back while gently maneuvering her out of the kitchen and to the opposite side of the house where his room was. Noah could tell Seph was lost, which wasn't a shock. He wasn't exactly being very forthcoming right then.
The door to his bedroom was quietly closed, then he was turning to look at her again. He expected her to be staring back at him, but she was actually slowly stepping around his room, studying the minimal items he had on the walls and on his desk. Clutter and knickknacks had never really been his thing.
It was then that Noah realized this was the first time Seph had been in his room, or just where he lived in general. They were always somewhere less personal before, until the night of her party.
“So, uh, your dad came and talked to me while you were gone.”
He had no idea how to approach this topic, though he figured it was best to do it sooner rather than later.
“I heard…” she murmured, her focus up on the framed images hanging on his wall. “That sounds like it was loads of fun.”
Noah chuckled, a hand rubbing nervously at the back of his neck. “Not exactly the words I'd use.”
“What did he want?”
A few steps were taken so he stood at her side, his eyes down on her while hers remained elsewhere. There was an urge to reach out and touch the bare skin of her shoulder, brush her hair aside, but he resisted by shoving his free hand into his pocket.
“He tossed out a lot of legal jargon, probably just to confuse me, but what I gathered is that he's thinking about pressing charges against Maisie. He also had a few choice words for me and our friendship.”
Seph then looked at him, head tilted up at just the right angle for their eyes to meet. Her figure shifted and turned a bit, both of them facing each other.
“I'm not going to let him press charges,” she exclaimed with a confidence that he hadn't been expecting. “Nothing happened in the video.”
Was she not interested in the last bit he had tossed in?
“He doesn't want us around each other.”
This made her softly laugh, her eyes rolling. “Of course he doesn't.”
“I'm not really su-”
“What do you think about that?” Seph cut him off, her eyebrow arched curiously.
Noah stumbled over his words a bit since he hadn't really thought that in depth about it yet. He figured he needed to see how things were between them first. And now that he had…he still had no idea.
“Do you want us to not be around each other?” She repeated her question with different wording, as if that would get an actual response out of him.
“No…” he hesitantly replied, a slight smile appearing.
“Then what he wants or has to say doesn't matter.”
Again, Noah was struggling to find his words. Fuck. This was not going how he wanted it to. He was supposed to be agreeing with her dad, telling her that it was best for them to stay away from each other. But nope, he couldn't bring himself to say it. How could he when she was looking at him like that?
“I really did miss you.”
Welp, that really cut his growing mood a bit.
“It's actually funny that you say that since you didn't make any attempt to talk to me.”
There was no way he could continue to bite his tongue on the matter when she just kept bringing it up…kind of. Inadvertently.
“But you talked to Nick…how many times? Multiple times a week for nearly a year?”
Seph bit down into her lower lip, her gaze dropping to the carpet in shame. Damn. Now he felt bad.
No. He wouldn't let her get to him that easily.
“I…I know it was shitty, okay? I didn't even mean to start talking to him. His Instagram was public so I was able to message him from a nurse’s account. I just wanted to check in…see how everyone was…but then talking to him helped keep my mind at ease when I really needed it.”
Noah now did an eye roll of his own, his feet shuffling back a bit so he could place some distance between them. That sure as hell didn't explain why she hadn't talked to him. Only why she hadn't contacted him first.
“Fuck, Noah. I was terrified to talk to you, is that what you want to hear? I didn't want to know how mad you were at me or find out what you thought about me after everything.”
“Mad? I wasn't mad at you, Seph. I was worried! You kick me out, I don't hear from you, and then I find out from Alexa that you're gone?”
A hand ran over his face, heavily exhaling. He definitely hadn't been prepared to have this conversation with her right then.
“And what do you mean by what I thought of you? I always looked at you like the sun fucking shone out of your ass, so why would that have changed?”
Seph was physically taken back by his statement. Her mouth fell open a bit, but then promptly closed. Head shaking, he could see the clench in her jaw. This told him that she was not happy.
“No, you looked at me like I was this perfect unobtainable thing! You were just as blind to everything like my parents were because you couldn't fathom the fact that someone you saw as sunshine was falling apart bit by bit everyday!”
It was Noah's turn to be taken back now. He stared straight at Seph, sporting a clenched jaw of his own that rivaled hers.
“I didn't want you to think of me like that, Noah. And I know it's ass backwards and doesn't make sense. Don't want you to see me as perfect…don't want you to see me breaking down…” Seph shook her head to herself, her hands moving about as she spoke at a rather fast pace.
“Believe me, I'm confused too.”
“You've got to stop caring so much about what other people think. If someone judges you for breaking under pressure, then you call them an ‘asshole’ and keep it moving!”
Seph had her eyes cast to the ceiling, her lips folded in for only a brief moment. He was waiting for her to say something - anything - that let him know she understood.
“It's not that simple.”
Nope. Not the response he was hoping to hear.
“But it is that simple, Seph. Why the fuck do you care about what other people have to say? Myself included.”
“I don't…” she stammered over the two words, and Noah could tell that even she wasn't convinced.
“Why, Seph?” He found himself taking a step closer to where she stood, his voice a little softer now than it previously had been. It hadn't been his intention to get so worked up, especially not when this was the first time they were seeing each other in what felt like forever.
Noah could see the tears welling in her eyes. He knew that she knew why. It was only a matter of whether or not she was going to reveal this to him. He wasn't going to push her, but he was well aware of how this all needed to go. Seph needed to admit it to herself.
“Because…I only feel worth anything when I know people like me.”
PERSEPHONE
And there it was. The truth Noah had been trying to tug out of her since the beginning of it all. It felt juvenile to say, admitting that people’s thoughts and opinions of her was what made her feel good about herself. Did that mean Maisie had been right about her? Was she only interested in Noah because of how he used to once look at her as if she was perfect?
No, she wouldn't let that be true. He was worth so much more than that to her, even if she had a horrible way of showing it.
“Fuck other people, Seph. They don't mean anything. Only the people who you feel like yourself around are the ones who matter.”
“And what if they see parts of me they don't like? Hm? What happens then? What happens when you realize I'm just some fucked up girl who isn't worth the hassle?”
Seph couldn't stop her voice from breaking as she laid it all out for him. If Noah wanted honesty, then that's what she would give him. And if he happened to run, well, at least she could say 'I told ya so’.
Instead of using his words, Noah was quick to cross the remainder of the bedroom to where she stood. His large hands enveloped her face and soon he was pulling her up into a kiss that made her heart race and her breathing halt, all at the same time. She was unable to stop herself from leaning into him, eager to have as much of him pressed against her as she could. It was just like they were back in her room a year ago when she craved to truly feel him. Definitely didn't take much for that need to return full force.
Seph didn't dare break from the kiss as her hand came up to grasp the back of his neck, her fingers briefly tangling into the long strands of his hair. She actually somehow managed to deepen the kiss even as Noah progressed forward, both of them taking in sync steps back to where his bed was.
As soon as she was lying back against his perfectly made bed, Noah followed right behind her. She pulled him down close against her, his lithe frame settling between her legs, knees pressed firm into his hips. One hand held himself up while the other drifted beneath the shirt she wore, just to feel the warmth of her skin against his own. Seph broke from his lips for mere seconds so she could rid him of his own shirt, which Noah took as an invitation to do the same. It had definitely been one.
“Noah…” she murmured into his mouth as they again collided in a heated kiss. As much as she didn't want to, she managed to pull back a bit, just as his fingers began to work on the button of her shorts. Though when she stopped, his hands also paused. Seph licked over her lips as she gazed up at him. She was then thankful for her flushed cheeks because that meant the blush creeping up was well hidden.
“I've never done this before…” she admitted, despite knowing that he probably already knew this from past conversations. As well as Maisie outing her during all of that commotion. There was just a weird urge she had to properly disclose the information to him.
Noah released her shorts, though his hands shifted to glide along her hips and up her sides in a soothing manner. “Are you sure?”
There was a pause and then he was shaking his head, laughing in slight embarrassment at himself. “Not ‘are you sure' you haven't done this because I think you'd know if you had. But are you sure that you want to…right now…with me?”
Of course she couldn't help but to laugh along with him, her nose scrunching at how flustered he had just made himself. Noah’s cheeks were now red with a blush and it was a sight she was hoping to always remember.
Seph sunk her teeth into her lower lip after their laughter had died down. She didn't want to hesitate with her response because she didn't want Noah to think she was second guessing anything. Maybe the timing wasn't ideal, considering there was a get together happening on the other side of the wall, but Seph wasn't the kind of girl who needed planning and rose petals. The social construct of virginity wasn't that deep to her, not like how a lot of people made it out to be. All that she cared about was trusting the other person and actually caring about them…much like how she cared for Noah.
“Yes,” she finally spoke with confidence, just so Noah knew she wasn't second guessing anything that had to do with him.
Noah then took in a deep breath, giving her a nod of his own before his head angled down and his lips trailed slowly along her neck. Oh, so now he was going to take his time?
“Just one thing…” she breathlessly mumbled after her eyes had fluttered closed and she was doing all she could to focus on the new sensations sweeping through her.
“Anything,” Noah continued to kiss and bite at the sensitive skin of her neck, his fingers returning to the button of her shorts that he managed to swiftly pop free.
Seph softly laughed, her hand lifting to cradle the side of his head in a way that made him pull back just enough to gaze down at her.
“Can you lock the door?”
CHAPTER FOUR JUMP
× End of chapter notes!: One guess as to where my eyes started crossing because I was beyond tired but needed to get this completed at a decent stopping point. :') ANYWAYYY, not me pausing halfway through and thinking, "is this about to become a Ruffilo fic?" A story really does write itself sometimes but NO. I had to refrain. But will there more little Peach and Pom moments? Yes. ♥‿♥
If anyone can tell me what the preferred chapter length is among the masses, then that would be greaaat. Stop me from my wild ramblings. Please. Unless you guys are into it and then I guess I'll just keep on truckin'.

IDEA I HAD. Dominica is a shapeshifter. Huen wants to get rid of Dominica at one point in the story because she is a menace (a dentist) ((an oral hygenist)) and is doing more harm than good at that point. At first she was a good kind of "wild card" to keep around, as the protags could never trust her intel. She might be exposing Huen's next plan, but she might also be leading them into a trap, who knows? (Seph falls for this during chapter 3 at the masquerade for example, thinks Dominica wants to help him kill Huen, when really she just leads him straight to her).
So I wanted to have Huen use Dominica in a way where she's "expendable" around chapter 4. She would send her on missions that were almost bound to fail or just straight up tell her "you mess one thing up, you're dead, i will not tolerate your shit anymore". Point is: Dominica gets the idea that she's worthless and on thin ice with her. Originally there was supposed to be a scene in ch4, during an Evoterra (Bitzy) related plotline. There's a commotion and Dominica gets the jump on Seph, they fight, she wants to get Menmarie's crystal for Huen (not knowing Seph doesn't have it at that point but yk). He basically tries to convince her to join TIME, she ALMOST does, but David interrupts them, almost kills her on the spot in his rage, she runs off. David ofc accuses Seph of betraying them again, all that jazz. Then Dominica gets killed by Huen for her failure and Diro is pissed (not at Huen cuz he's basically brainwashed, more at David/Seph). BUT-
I've been thinking about Dominica ACTUALLY joining TIME. Her death doesn't really do much besides incite another confilct between David and Seph, and they have a lot of those anyway. Plus her being there gives the others a new insight into Seph, as they never knew what his friendship (?) with Dominica was really like. On top of that, she could teach him more about shapeshifting, like she had tried to do at the start of the story. He needs to be able to shapeshift pretty convincingly in chapter 6, so it would def help. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, I love the idea of the gang making Dominica wear like- a bell or something around her neck that she is not allowed to take off??? So they always know where she is + so that they can tell when she shapeshifts into someone. She hates it but eventually surrenders (its better than Huen killing her). BUT ALSO the conflict she starts between David and Seph? That can still happen. David just thinks Seph has "brought an enemy into their ranks" and thus is a traitor and scum and all that.
Another plot point RELATED to this. I want a plotline where the gang tries really hard to reach Huen and just kill her off or something (still havent sat down to think this through so bear with me), spending a shit ton of time and effort into planning their attack, getting to her and all that. Only to figure out, once they reach her, that it had been Dominica posing as Huen all along.
I like this a lot, cuz I could TOTALLY link the two plot points together? Huen thinks Dominica is a liability and disposable? HERE, pose as me for a few months and risk your life so I can work on some stuff in the shadows! I could even incorporate it to the Evoterra plotline like I had initially wanted! Maybe publically, "Huen" is doing a lot politically to make TIME's job that much harder, having meetings and rallies and speeches, until eventually TIME members are considered criminals by the people in Evoterra (not all of Evoterra ofc, this one specific region the story takes part it, but yk). This further pushes my plotline with Ellie and co. teaming up with Bitzy and the other social outcasts from Evo, so its basically a win on all fronts! Then during their Huen assassination attempt, Seph notices something, realizes that "OH MY FUCKING GOD, THIS ISNT HUEN" and basically stops whoever (Ellie? maybe?) from delivering the final blow. MEANWHILE Huen can do the actual work of establishing a network of allies in Evo without having to worry about these idiots.
I can even think up a justification on why Dominica even comes back to Huen, instead of going with TIME right away after she's exposed. Maybe Huen told her she would kill her if she failed/got herself exposed prematurely. Maybe Diro is there with her and he basically DRAGS HER BACK to HQ even if she doesn't wanna come back. Maybe she gets scared off by David. Any and all of those are perfectly fine on their own and in pairs to me.
Then another plot point I'm not 100% sure of. Once Dominica comes back to HQ, she basically knows she's done for. Diro is probably in denial and can't get it through his head that Huen would kill either of them, as they're "too valueable to her" (oh buddy). Easiest thing to do would be Dominica running away on her own and going to TIME HQ, cuz she doesn't know where else to go. BUT, I also really love the idea of a Dominica rescue party put together by Seph. David would fucking lose it, Angele would have reasonable doubts, Ellie would be reliving past traumas about trusting Seph. There's so much potential, yk?? AND MAYBE I COULD CONNECT ANOTHER PLOT POINT TO THIS, BECAUSE THERE'S ANOTHER RESCUE MISSION I WANNA DO FOR TOM, VINCENT AND JULIA'S STORY- Reminder to self: maybe connect this with the Phoebe reveal, so the "rescue party" would involve Seph (solo saving Dominica and succeeding) and Julia with Lance (trying to save Phoebe and getting nice little surprise instead).
Point is: maybe Dominica doesn't need to die, maybe we can have fun here. I'm probably gonna make this canon in some way shape or form.

Universe in a Jar, 3 - Phase 4 fic
Recap: Some days ago, I reblogged this post about the magical trio. And then my brain went off on a monumental tangent and, I wrote Universe in a Jar.
Characters: Stephen Strange, Loki, Wanda Maximoff, Wong, OC
Rating: T?
Warnings: Language! Nightmares, sass, terrible storytelling, and typos prob.
Summary: Baby-sitting beings arguably more powerful than him goes awry for Doctor Strange. He knows one person who can possibly keep them isolated and out of trouble. Well, he knew someone who could… he hasn’t seen them in decades and for stupid reasons.
Previous Chapter
~*~
While tensions had eased in the household, Stephen maintained a respectable distance from Seph, if only to ensure his continued breathing. During the day, he took to reading in familiar spots, comfortably nestled amongst memories or doing chores that felt comforting in their nostalgia. During the night he tossed and turned in a bed he had once known as well as his own, hoping against all hope that his brain could shut up and allow him to rest, if only for a few hours.
The Hale house had six bedrooms, bigger than his own home with four, despite only ever having two occupants. Wanda and Loki had chosen two rooms at the end of the hallway that overlooked part of the farmland surrounding the houses. Persephone had taken over the grand bedroom on the other side of the hallway. Stephen had debated taking one of the guest rooms on the lower floor, but one step into each of them had his skin crawling in an uncomfortable manner. He wasn't meant for those rooms.
You're family, Stephen. Stop ringing the doorbell, Demeter Hale had once announced, exasperated, one chilly winter morning. And she was right. Stephen practically lived there. Hale manor was quieter than his own home and had a plethora of books on odd topics he had never even heard of–it was a wonderland.
Family, as it were, slept on the top floor. The room Wanda currently occupied was where he would typically drop his clothes in when he stayed over. Though, if he were honest, there was seldom a time he slept over that he made it back into the room for the night. It was a bad habit that spread to high school and beyond, ignoring the propriety of what their parents would explain was not OK for friends to do. But Stephen and Persephone had never been interested in each other that way. Well, at least that they would admit. So, he always stayed in her room.
Tonight was no exception.
Wanda turned in first, as usual, taking solace in the quiet and solitude to mourn her family in silence… or figure out how to get them back. Stephen wasn't exactly sure which one she was on, at the moment. Later, he watched an all-too-flirty Loki amble to his quarters, not before getting a long, drawn-out hug from Persephone (likely more, when he wasn't watching… which he wasn't). Then, she would offer him a shy wave before hiding in the grand bedroom.
After a while, he stopped contemplating the closed door and turned into the bedroom across the hall. It looked… exactly the same way it had when he last stepped foot in it–posters, pictures, school banners, strings of lights littering the canopy. Across the desk chair, an old hoodie, that he could clearly tell used to be his, was discarded. He had raised it to his nose when he first entered the bedroom. It still smelled of him, but there was the faint scent of her perfume permeating the fabric. If he were a sentimental man…
He fell into 'his' side of the bed with a groan. As a way to ease his mind, he had spent some time in the garden, picking tomatoes and berries and tilling a bit of stubborn dirt at the far west corner. His back now burned in protest, but it was a welcome distraction from the monotony. Wong had told him in no uncertain terms that Wanda and Loki needed to settle before they dealt with issues with the Multiverse. It would be a moot point to correct some magic when their owner was simply going to re-do the whole mess the second they could. In all fairness, this was mostly an issue with Wanda. Loki, despite being a stubborn mule and refusing to explain his reasoning, had not done too much damage. It would likely be a while before he slept in his own bed again.
Stephen blinked into the darkness, turning on his side and attempting to sleep in that position. Ten minutes, then thirty, an hour later–no sleep. Amid the cricket chirps and frog songs, a small noise broke the trance-like state of his insomnia. It was ridiculous how quickly he recognized it, and even more pathetic how naturally it brought him to a sit. He glanced at his door, deciding if he was really going to cross the hallway this time. He chickened out the first three times he had heard it, but there was something desperate about the sound tonight. It was bound to be a bad one.
"You've died a thousand times in the hands of the Dormammu. You can go check on Seph, you loser," he berated himself, pushing the bedsheets off and wrenching the door open.
He tiptoed across the hall and gently opened the door. Whatever it was he was expecting to see, it certainly was not this. Persephone was tangled in her sheets, her pajamas of plaid shorts and another old sweatshirt of his rumpled across her body. With every pained, nightmarish pant, a universe exploded around her, encompassing her in iridescent light before fading away. It was like she was locking herself in the same box she had trapped him, killing herself every other breath. Reflected in the glass was every ghost and ghoul that haunted her dreams, sadistic grins flashing down at her weary body.
So this was why she was so exhausted.
Carefully, he clambered to her side, grateful to find that he could easily reach past her barriers. His fingers gripped her shoulder and shook her gently. "Come on. Wake up, Seph." She whimpered again and the glass changed in color. Reflected on its surface was his own face, years younger, nary a single grey on his head. He looked terrifying, even to his own eyes; cold, detached. Stephen shook her more firmly; the barriers flickered.
"Stephen–" Her voice trembled and her whole body quivered. "Please."
His other hand pried hers from the bedsheets and twined them together. "Peep, I'm here." He found himself hunching, speaking the words in a decisive tone in her ear. "It's just a dream, Persephone."
Another shudder ran through her before her hand tightened around his. It took a moment longer before she was able to blink awake, though her eyes were wild and disoriented in the darkness.
His other hand pressed into her back in an effort to soothe her when she shot up with a gasp. "I have you, Peep. You're OK." A second, two, twenty–and she broke into a heart wrenching sob.
Stephen wasn't any good with tears, a fact he gently reminded her of, mid-sob.
Her eyes, still spilling tears, bore into his in disbelief.
"You're absolutely right. I'll shut up now," he hastened to add, awkwardly patting her shoulder.
Seph wiped roughly at her eyes. "Just go, Stephen. I'll see you in the morning." She wrapped herself tight, knees braced against her chest and her line of sight lost elsewhere.
"Peep, don't be like that."
Her brows pulled together and her mouth set into a grim line. "Don't call me that, Steve."
A ghost of a smirk tilted his lips at the annoyance radiating off her. "Why not?"
"I'm not a child."
"I know you're not. You're a grown-up doctor. Well, a psychiatrist, at least." He smiled and nudged her side with his elbow to get a rise out of her.
She didn't take the bait. The ball she had molded herself into tightened.
"I don't practice, anymore."
Stephen's head snapped towards her, instantly. "What?"
"I quit."
He sputtered. "What? Why? And, when? I got your information from the hospital–"
With a groan, she clenched her eyes tightly closed, trying to block out the world as if she wasn't just trapped in a murder box of her own (unconscious) design. "Jesus Christ, you talk a lot. The Blip. I quit after the Blip."
"But, the kids you treat–"
"On a personal capacity," she cut in, hoping the conversation stopped there. Of course, she had known Stephen for far too long to expect that.
"You love your job, Seph. I've seen you pass up box tickets to the damn Philharmonic for a counseling session."
A half shrug left her. "I was alone and I wanted to feel it. So I made this whole mess." Seph gestured at their surroundings with a vague wag of her finger.
"I don't understand."
"I know you don't. Work has always been enough for you. It wasn't the same for me."
He sighed. "Maybe then, but now–"
"It's still the same. You're doing farm chores you never even did when you lived here because you need things to do. You try to shake Loki down every other hour for information on whatever the hell he was doing that prompted you to grab him. Wanda's sick of you. You can't just ever settle down!" There was a sharp edge to her voice that was not lost on him.
Stephen blinked, shaking his head. "I'm sorry, how did this become about me?"
Seph growled under her breath, releasing her limbs and narrowly stopping herself from smacking the living daylights out of him. "Because it is about you and your fucking inability to relate to anyone about anything! Not everything is logical! Wanda lost her family! Loki got bounced around fucking realities! And you're annoyed that you can't get back to the Sanctum until you figure the Wonder Twins out."
"I have other responsibilities–"
"Which Wong is taking care of."
"Wong might think… wait, how do you know Wong?" His head tilted like a distracted dog.
"You might have not reached out to me, but others did. He wanted to know who you were; you had just started training. I told him you were an asshole and that I never wanted to see or hear from you ever again. We exchanged numbers."
He sat in silence for a long while before glancing back up at her. "Why didn't you come to Kamar-Taj?"
"I wasn't invited."
"And the Sanctum?"
"I. Wasn't. Invited."
He chewed at the inside of his cheek, ignoring the weight of her gaze on him. "Come back to the Sanctum with me."
"Nope. I'm fine where I am."
"You're on a farm in rural Nebraska in a town where you are the extent of the diversity."
Persephone sighed, reaching up to brush the overgrown stubble on Stephen's cheeks. "But it's home."
"You're alone, though."
"And you're lonely in a city of five million people."
He pretended to ignore the sting of the comment, opting for some sweet-talking, instead. "You'd like it, though. So many books."
"That is a new bar of low. Don't bribe me, Steve." She scoffed unconvincingly, he caught the slip.
"Like, a loooot of books. In all different languages. Would probably keep you occupied several years."
He knew her too well. She hated it.
"I'll think about it." He smiled a little too brightly. "Just think. No promises." More silence came to keep them company.
He hesitated before wincing. "Does this happen every night? The suffocating and exploding?" She nodded. "You should definitely come. We can figure something out, Wong, you, and me." Another nod. He straightened the fabric of her headwrap and tucked a runaway curl underneath with an easy smile. It was an excuse for contact, he knew, but he couldn't bring himself to care and she didn't seem to mind. He retrieved his hand with a sigh. "You're tired. You should get some sleep." He braced on his arms to shuffle out. A hand wrapped around his wrist and held him there.
"Don't go. Please."
Stephen smiled and nodded after a moment. He gestured with his head. "Scoot over, Peep."
"Steve."
"Quiet. You'll get us caught," he whispered, and they both giggled like it was the millionth time those words were said. It probably was. They curled up under the covers and drifted off.
~*~
Stephen was now beyond curious about Persephone's magic.
As the early morning broke over the horizon, he found himself up and about the house, doing little chores that felt like muscle memory. When the coffee was brewed, he took a mug and sat on the stairs to sip, watching as last night's roommate woke and barely acknowledged him as she drifted down the steps, pausing only to ruffle his already messy hair. She stopped at the entry hallway, jumping slightly backward at the floating cloak hovering in place. The words had stuck in her throat, and Stephen watched between the banister poles with a smile on his face.
"Ste–shitshitshit." She inched backward as the garment glided over and stopped in front of her. The cloak lifted a bottom corner to gently glide over her left hand, rubbing itself against her skin before settling around her shoulders in a warm embrace. It urged her forward and to a side table that held some keys and a vase of flowers. Beside the vase, a double-fingered ring sat innocuously. The cloak gestured in its direction and then back at her.
The Sorcerer leaned forward to see what she'd do. With shaking fingers, she picked up the ring and turned it in her hands. The cloak, impatient as ever, grabbed the ring and slipped it over her fingers. All at once, the barriers containing the house inside of the apartment glimmered and symbols etched themselves in brilliant orange light across them. Stephen could barely understand half of them, but the ones he could seemed like they were building blueprints and math that would make the inexplicably large fit into the inexplicably small. It was like staring at the source code on a computer and breaking down the software into its components. He broke out of his reverie by the fourth Stephen being called. He jumped down the remainder of the steps and turned the corner.
Persephone was staring, half fascinated, half horrified at the markings, and was drawing the cloak tight around her shoulders–the cloak was loving it. He stopped beside her and she reached out for his wrist, clasping it as tightly as she did the night before. "Ho–how does it know my magic?"
"You can read this?"
"Yeah, it's in plain… you can't?" Stephen shook his head. "How's it doing this?"
"Not 'it'. You. This is you. The ring's just a conduit. The cloak's just a nuisance." There was a whisper of a huff from the fabric and Seph pulled it tighter, smoothing her hands down the red contours. A rustle like a shiver followed. "Don't get comfortable. This isn't permanent."
"I wasn't assuming…"
"I was telling them." He glared at the cloak. "She's not your new pet. Settle down." His eyes lifted to hers. "They get familiar. Sorry."
"It's OK. They're sweet. After you get over the fact that it's a garment with a mind of its own."
"Are we under attack?" Wanda startled the both of them. They turned to see the witch still in her pajamas, hair mussed up and hands glowing. "Why are we warding?"
"Not warding. Seph put on my sling ring and this happened. It's her magic."
"Oh. She has Chaos magic wards in her repertoire." Wanda pointed at several spots and they lit up red with her magic before fading back to orange.
"I don't know what that means," Seph spoke up meekly, barely breaking through the intense debate the other two were now having, trying to identify the remainder of runes.
Stephen traced a rune with his finger. "Anything dangerous?"
"No. Just protection runes. Over and over and over. Every type under the Chaotic sun. Loki might know about the others, though."
"I still don't know what that means."
"It means you are all sorts of impressive, Peep. I'll pop in on Wong and grab a few books." He offered his open palm for the ring, which she happily gave. However, when the ring came off, the symbols didn't fade. Instead, they crackled like embers and seared themselves into the invisible veil surrounding the space. Stephen frowned. "Maybe I'll take you with me." He turned to Wanda. "Can you and Prince Emo behave while we're gone or do I have to drag you along, too?"
Persephone elbowed him in the ribs. "Stephen–"
"Right. Relating." He drew a breath and his shoulders slumped. He tried again. "Could you and Loki stay put while Seph and I go to the Sanctum? I need to show Wong. It's important."
Wanda and Seph exchanged a lengthy conversation in facial expressions alone before the witch smiled. "We'll be fine. I was just going to sit and read on the porch. Loki won't be awake for a couple of hours."
"OK. Good. Thanks." He stood silently ruminating in his head before abruptly snapping out of it and shaking the cobwebs from his mind. "You ready to go?"
"I'm in my pj's, Steve." He blinked blankly at her and she rolled her eyes with a sigh. "Sure. Can I put on shoes, at least?"
He was already opening a portal by the time she finished asking her question. "No need." With little hesitation, he reached for her hand and stepped through the portal with her in tow.
Persephone barely managed to contain the gasp of wonder at the surroundings. Books, artifacts, paintings–it looked like a museum and it was all functional and there for the students. Stephen had been in a hurry a second before, but just watching her undistilled awe made him pause. His thumb brushed the back of the hand he had twined with his; a familiar gesture that barely pulled her attention. Her free hand reached for a tome lodged between jars of off-looking coins. It rippled in a kaleidoscope of colors upon contact.
"Miss Hale?"
Seph glanced over her shoulder to smile at Wong. His brows were pulled together as if he was trying to work out a particularly hard problem in his head. The problem, most likely, was, how are you not murdering him right now? You seemed pretty adamant about it when I last talked to you.
"Master Wong. How are you?"
Wong smiled kindly. "I'm doing well, Persephone." He seemed to sense the withering heat of Stephen's gaze and reluctantly turned to face the Sorcerer Supreme. "I didn't tell you because I doubted you wanted to hear how she hated your guts. In excruciating detail. And after what you did to her, you forfeited the right to know a thing about her. So save me the glaring."
Stephen pointed at himself. "Sorcerer Supreme."
"And an asshole. They're not mutually exclusive." He glanced at Seph. "You didn't even let her get out of her pajamas."
"She has the cloak!"
"Were you raised by wolves or what?"
"Doesn't matter right now. I have to show you something," Stephen declared in exasperation, tugging the sling ring off and handing it off to Seph.
She held the metal tentatively between her fingers before the weight of expecting stares forced her to slip it on. The magic rippled slower than it had in her house as if it were more hesitant to show itself, but soon there wasn't an inch of wall, bookshelf, or display case that wasn't burning bright orange and twinkling in the dimly lit Sanctum.
"How did you teach her that?" Wong had his eyebrows gathered up high, taking in every marking around him with awe.
"I didn't. I thought it only showed her magic but… it's everyones. It's like she can open them up, like a book. Peep, can you read these, too?" Her eyes danced over several objects before lighting on a sword mounted on the wall.
She pointed at it with a grin. "That one was supposed to be a joke but the spell actually worked." Seph tilted her head as she continued searching. "Actually, a lot of them were jokes that actually work. What are you supposed to do with enchanted dice?"
Wong opened his mouth to comment, but Stephen held a finger up to buy himself some extra time. He opened his palm and Seph dropped the sling ring in it. The symbols still didn't fade.
Wong looked, surprisingly, unimpressed.
"Can I talk now?" Seph giggled under her breath and Stephen gestured him along. "She's a psychiatrist. Why are you surprised she can access the root of magics? She probably became one because she could read things so well, naturally."
"Without training?"
For a second Wong looked like he was deciding whether or not Stephen was stupid. "Hence, why I said naturally."
"And the portals?"
"If you understand how the fabric of the Universe works, you can weave it to your will. We do that all the time. You're just astounded that she can do it naturally because it took you forever to understand. Is this really why you dragged her out of her home in pj's?"
"The symbols don't fade without the sling ring."
At this point, Wong was convinced Strange was stupid. "She's never needed the ring. The ring is a conduit, she can do magic on her own. If you distract her a–BOO!"
Persephone shrieked, jumping back as Wong jumped towards her. Sure enough, the symbols fizzled into the ether, though two, in a rainbow of colors, glimmered on the floor before her and an ominous ripple of red fabric fluttered around her.
"I see the Cloak of Levitation has found a new friend. They're even protecting her."
"They like most people more than me."
Seph rolled her eyes. "Why does that not surprise me?" She absently stroked over the fabric covering her arms.
Stephen ignored the jab. "What books would you recommend she start with to learn how to control her abilities?"
Wong was quiet for a long while. "There's a few about the magics of quantum mechanics, but if she's been able to do this her whole life, I doubt she needs them. Why would she need training? Barring an incident–" The two friends glanced shortly at each other out of the corner of the other's eye. "You two had an incident. What did he do?"
Rustling her curls, she scuffed her toe on the concrete floor, eyes downcast. "He was being dumb. I tried to kill him. Well, I blacked out and the power took over. Loki had to break him out of a killing jar."
"Quantum magics, then… and maybe some yoga." He gestured at her with his head. "Come on. I'll show you the library."
Her eyes widened with almost innocent excitement. "This isn't the library?"
With a doe-eyed stare, she followed Wong; Stephen close behind, pretending not to grin. The second Wong opened the doors, Persephone let out a long, disbelieving gasp. She trembled as she walked and the cloak had taken to wrapping itself tightly around her to keep her calm.
Wong smirked. It wasn't often that he received anyone who was this honestly happy to see a room full of books and not think about the bothers of having homework. He began to pull tomes from the shelves, stacking and weighing his options between similar texts. When his pile was nine books deep, he settled them on a table. "This should get you started. When you're done, you can come back and I'll lend you some more. On any topic you like."
"I never got to choose which books I read," Strange defended.
"Because you were annoying and she's not." Seph snickered in her spot, fingers toying with the spines of the stack. "Truly, come back when you're ready, and you're not actively trying to kill the Sorcerer Supreme."
"Tell him not to annoy me and I won't," she defended, though she smiled. "Thank you, Wong." She eagerly hefted the pile and gestured at Stephen. "Hurry up. I have things to read."
"Why don't you just make a portal?"
"Because it's rude to make them in other people's homes without permission," she started pointedly, "and I'm carrying books. Now, please." She smiled brightly at Wong and nodded. Stephen rolled his eyes petulantly. "See you soon, Master Wong." She stepped in the direction where Stephen had made a portal opening straight into her kitchen.
"See you soon, Persephone."

Hellmonger
YAAAAAAAAA
PERSEPHONE “SEPH” “HELLMONGER” “HELLY M” MCMYUNIT
favorite thing about them: LOTS OF THINGS..... i am a proud creator, but i think in particular my favourite thing about her is how she plays chess. which is terribly. she’s the kind of person who’ll tell you when you’re two spaces from her king “actually my pawns staged a revolution and so the king’s capture means nothing to them or this game. go ahead. overthrow the ruler. they’ll continue on just fine.”
least favorite thing about them: drawing her is hard sometimes. i can’t get her consistent!!!! also i can’t figure out a final class for her that sticks and that’s my other least favourite thing
favorite line: let me pluck one from my old RP Twitter... "I don't think I've talked to Chrom much at all since the banquet. Haha... I hope he didn't take that turkey to the arm seriously!...That sounds pretty bad out of context, actually. I don't think /I'd/ go out of my way to talk to me if I hit myself with a turkey leg."
brOTP: Persephone & Virion has So Much Potential and by potential i mean CHESS WITH NO LIMITS
OTP: i am.... really, really fond of Persephone/Sumia. i like her with a lot of girls, but i have a particular soft spot for book buddy club & Cynthia’s twintails being a product of wanting to resemble her mom.
nOTP: any guy at all is a nOTP. she’s gay, harold
random headcanon: uhhhh her entire character is headcanons but let’s see... one of my favourites is about her appetite, because she’s got like, Stahl-level hunger stuff going on. it’s mostly just that she fucked up her metabolism with her eating schedule and habits and ended up making herself Hunger Monster Supreme but it’s still funny thinking about this tiny 5′2″ tactician in an oversized coat stuffing an entire cake in her mouth
unpopular opinion: N/A, i’m like the only one with known opinions since she’s my OC?
song i associate with them: I CAN ACTUALLY ANSWER THIS ONE YEEHAW. i have a couple of songs a friend sent me that i associate with Grima!Seph but for the regular one in particular this cover of Born to Be Wild makes me think of her. so does every song in my youtube favs that involves being wlw
favorite picture of them: CHESS WITH NO LIMITS and also the hey boys meme

a/n: thank you @galaxycunt @strangefable and @natesofrellis for tagging me for wip wednesday, a wip kinda ended up turning into me finishing my fic sooooo here it is lol i tag @confidentandgood @sstewyhosseini @captastra and anyone wanting to share a wip!
ok so this is entirely based off my dream i had with sam plus me being the whore i usually am and turning it into a prompt for a smut fic and make it some side story head canon for seph and sam HAHAHAHA also this is a totally made up scenario and not in the game lol
Seph, Sam and Nate were scanning the premises of a fairly large museum the three of them had to somehow get into. The information of a certain item they needed for their next clue just happened to be in this heavily guarded facility, of course it did. The three of them rounded the rear end of the museum and found a back entrance behind a bricked wall and metal gates. However, of course like everything else in this museum, this gate was guarded by two guards standing on post. Behind that gate was a loading van, and behind the van; a propped door. Perfect.
Nate lead the way, staying a fair enough distance away as to not attract any attention, but close enough to make out a plan. “Alright I have an idea.” Nate starts, turning around to face Seph and Sam who followed. “The two of you can go to that alley while I round their back side. You,” he points to Seph abruptly, “try getting their attention.”
“And how am I supposed to do that?” She ask, the sudden job trusted upon her beginning to add quite the pressure on her nerves. Distract the guards?? How was she supposed to distract a couple of heavily armed men who clearly are trained to not be fucked with.
“You know, use your womanly charm, schmooze your way into getting their attention. Call ‘em over to the alley and make sure they follow you, that way when they round the corner Sam here can knock ‘em out, eh? Sounds good?” Nate seemed much too excited while the couple looked at him almost dumbfounded.
“Nathan, there’s no way that’s going to work.” Sam almost half laughed at his plan. “I mean come on, schmooze? What year is this, the 1890s?” Seph chuckles as well noticing the unimpressed look Nate pointed towards his brother.
“Yeah, and womanly charm? The hell is that supposed to mean.” She teased chuckling, “Now that’s just sexist.” She hears Nate sigh, exasperated and annoyed as the two of them continue to giggle and mock him. “Nate, they’re guards, they wouldn’t succumb to such temptations. Wouldn’t they be trained against that anyway? Womanly charm.” She laughs again with her last words.
“Oh I wouldn’t doubt your charm. If you somehow wooed my brother, I’m sure you can manage a couple guards.” Nathan bantered back, raising a brow at Sam as he spoke.
“Please, your brother’s a horndog, he’d be on his knees for any woman who walks by him and bends over.” Seph’s grin never falters as she sees Sam’s reaction to both his girlfriend and his brother teaming up on him.
“Really guys? I mean I saw you coming but you too?” He looked at Nate then at Seph. “Now you’re just being mean.” Sam crossed his arms.
“Well if you guys have a better plan I’m all ears. If not then I’ll be waiting for my cue.” And with that, off he goes around a few buildings to avoid the gaze of the guards and rounding then behind them. Seph sighs before grabbing Sam by the hand.
“Come on, we’ve got no other choice now. Even if we had another idea, your brother’s long gone to bargain.” She smiles towards him before she begins to drag him to the alley. Truth be told Seph was kind of excited for this little plan though she does hopes it’ll work. If not she’d just have to come up with something quick to get their attention, though she was sure a woman’s scream as a last resort could always do the trick. Seph practically skipped as she pulled Sam like dead weight behind her, her excited grin ever present on her face. Even if Sam wasn’t partial to the idea, he sure thought she was cute with the way she was smiling and tugging him along. Her hand so small in his, soft and warm, her quick steps as she hurried him along just as sweet. He could almost imagine her pulling him away from the others for a quick make out session, if not something more, like they usually did. A smile of his own pulled at his lips as he followed behind her.
The two of them discretely made it towards the alley, hiding around the corner just out of sight from the guards. Seph had no idea how she was going to charm the guards over, surely she wouldn’t have to talk right? Actions speak louder than words as they say. She hoped so anyhow. Before moving out into the open Seph looked over herself. She wasn’t necessarily wearing the most flattering outfit, just a simple knee length skirt, buttoned top and converse. If she’d had known before hand she was going to be pulling a stunt like this, perhaps she wouldn’t have worn the converse. But no use in dwelling in that now, she had to make do with what she had. Pulling the bottom hem of the skirt up, she tucked the corner into the waistband creating a more revealing look followed with a few more undone buttons of her top. Sam had watched her the whole time as she calculated her dilemma in her head and began to alter her outfit.
“Woah, woah, you sure about that?” His hands came to cover her on instinct as she exposed more of her leg and her breasts. He knew that she had to do what she was doing to catch their eye but he wasn’t expecting her to go all out or anything.
“What? I have to sell it don’t I?” Seph grinned seeing as Sam’s eyes raked over her body much too greedily. “And clearly it’s working.” Her grin turned into a knowing smirk as she caught Sam’s attention back to her face.
“I just… I don’t know if you’ve gotta be this showy to some random weirdo men..do you?” Sam almost sounded like a whimpering dog, hoping he wouldn’t have to really let her follow through with this as his eyes looked her over once more. It was like watching a kid who was so reluctant to share his favourite toy.
“If we want the plan to work, then yes.” She finishes up her alterations and look up at him. “Hair up or down?” She asks him. Of course he’d know how she looks best.
“..Up..” He replies almost begrudgingly. Seph smiles a thank you to him as she begins to tie her hair up in a low bun. Sam didn’t want to admit it but she did look really good. He was too proud, keeping the wounded dog act like he almost didn’t want to let her leave. She looked much too good for it to not be for him. Seph saw the look on his face as he contemplated what he should do next.
Seph’s smile turns sweet, stepping closer as she reaches up to straighten his shirt collar, “Think of it as a school play and your role is to beat up the men who are trying to flirt with me.” Seph spoke as she fiddled with his clothes, his hands finding purchase on her hips. “I’m sure you can do that.” She affirms with him, waiting for his reply. Putting it that way it did make him feel a little better about the whole situation. He definitely wouldn’t mind beating up some men who were ogling his girlfriend far longer than they should have. He gives her a nod and she squeeze his shoulder in return. “Ok,” she pulls away from him, turning to the end of the alley, “let’s get this over with.”
Seph steps out into the open, taking slow steps one in front of the other like a cat walk as she approaches their line of view. She kept a fair distance as she walked and soon enough she notices she caught their attention. With both of their heads pointing in her direction, she took a deep breath before she raised her hand for a sweet little wave of her fingers. She watches their movement, the way their heads perk up a bit more at the wave, the way they shift their weight on their legs when she smiles at them. Tilting her head, she turns herself to the side, straightening herself as much as she could so both her chest and rear seemed more desirable. Seph can tell she’s peaked their interest, it definitely felt strange to be doing this let alone having it work. This time she fully turn her back to them before glancing back, silently beckoning them to follow as she swayed her hips, walking back towards the alley in which she came. The guards looked at each other before they took a couple cautious steps towards her, she smiles once more at them, enticing them more confidently.
Seph made sure the guards were following her before she rounded the corner of the alley to where Sam was waiting for her return. “Did they take the bate?” He asked as he tries to check behind her to see if they were coming. She pulls him back before they see him.
“Yes, like a fish on a hook. Come on don’t do that, they’ll see you.” Seph manages to yank Sam by the arm back behind the wall.
“Are you sure they didn’t turn around?” Sam was speaking a little too loudly for her liking. She knew the guards were nearing and she didn’t want to blow the whole thing with Sam’s loud mouth. She lightly slaps his chest before whispering.
“Be quiet they’re close-“ Sam cuts her off with a hand on her mouth, the two of them could hear the footsteps of heavy boots nearing the corner.
“Shh.” Sam mouths to Seph as he continues to listen. ‘Yeah no shit.’ she thinks to yourself as she rolls her eyes, staying quiet as she pulls Sam’s hand off her mouth. Seph moves out of his way, standing behind him as Sam readied himself. She hears low chatter as the guards came closer, speaking to one another, probably about her, Seph grimaces at the thought. She heard one of the guards call out to she as they rounded the corner, Sam being quick on his feet grabs one of them by the head and keeping his hand on the man’s mouth as he struggled in his grasp. The other guard was ready to lift his weapon before Seph make quick moves to kick him in the chins, making the guard drop his gun and groan loudly in pain, giving Sam enough time to drop the first guard to the ground and move to the next. Sam swiftly punches the last man square in the jaw and Seph watches him fall to the ground with a solid thump.
“Nice.” She comments with a proud smile. Sam straightens himself out and wipes his hands.
“Not so bad yourself.” Sam replies, grinning at her as he brushes his bruising knuckles.
“Honestly, I didn’t even know it would work. I just kicked whatever was closest hoping it could stun him a bit.” She responds sheepishly but honest, laughing at the thought of her previous action, it did seem a bit silly.
“And it did,” Sam placed his hands on his hips, “we should move these bodies in case someone sees ‘em.” He looks back at the two guards before looking around for somewhere to dump them. His eyes land on a couple dumpsters further down the alley. “Help me out with these would you?”
Seph nod sand follows his lead, picking up one guards legs while Sam grabbed the other end, lifting and shuffling together to get the unconscious man behind the dumpsters. “Why did these dumpsters have to be so far away?” Seph struggled as she tried not to drop the man’s legs, the longer she carried the heavier he got. Sam huffed a laugh.
“You just gotta work out more.” He teased as the two of them dump the dead weight behind the dumpster before heading back for the other.
“Are you calling me weak?” Seph teased back with mocking offence as she placed a hand on her chest and the other on her hip, she watches Sam’s face instantly fall into a silent panic. She lets out a laugh before heading back to the second body. “I’m joking! You’re adorable.” Seph giggles walking past him as Sam sighed before following her.
“That’s not funny.” He pouts, grumbling behind Seph as he caught up with her steps.
The two of them finish moving the second body next to the other one with relief, Seph’s arms finally resting after way too much body dragging, “Never ask me to cover up a murder for you. Lifting these two was enough heavy body lifting for my lifetime.” She tells Sam as she starts her way back towards the opening of the alley. Seph hears him chuckle as he walks next to her.
“Noted.” He hums, reducing his pace to a stop the closer the two of them got to the end of the alley, Seph slows and turns to him.
“What’s wrong?” Seph asks as she watches Sam approach her with a wandering look in his eye. She knew that look, she’s seen it more times than she could count, though she wondered why he’d give her such a look now considering their situation at hand and their previous tasks. Then it came to her, she’d completely forgotten to fix her clothes back to normal, and knowing him, he probably watched the whole show she had put up for the guards earlier. She looks down at yourself and sure enough her very unbuttoned shirt was showing her rather exposed skin. She huffs in defeat with a small smile pulling at her lips.
Seph goes to untuck her skirt but Sam’s hand comes down gently on hers, signalling her to release the fabric in her hand. She looks up at him, his eyes soft as he peers down at her body now mere inches away from his. His hand releases hers before it begins to roam, slipping under her skirt by the improvised slit to touch the skin of her thigh as it travels up and back to the curve of her ass. His other hand reaches for her shirt, gently grabbing a hold of one side of the opened collar to neatly place the fabric aside before his fingers delicately trace the skin of her chest.
He leaves a trail of goose bumps on her skin wherever he touches, his hand flattening against her chest to slide under her shirt as if he moves to slip it off. Seph grabs his wrist before he does so. “Sam..” She warns him gently, “We can’t strip naked in the middle of a city in some sketchy alleyway.” Her voice was low, almost embarrassed to have to explain to him why she stopped him. Sam looks at her with furrowed brows and a disappointed pout before his hand slips from her hold and slides up to cup her neck, pulling her in for a gentle kiss.
She could feel Sam’s restraint in the way he kissed her, the hand on her ass gripping and squeezing every few seconds as if to appease a his self-control. He pulled her back with him, stumbling slow steps as he walked them back into the wall of the alley, his quiet groans are swallowed by her mouth as his back hit the brick behind him. She falls into him, her chest pressed to his as he devoured her kisses with his own, his tongue tasting every part of her lips and mouth with every exchange. Sam knew the boundaries she’s set, no taking off clothes, but he could do a lot of things without taking off their clothes and he knew she wouldn’t be able to resist it considering her sex drive matched his quite well.
Giving her lips one last ounce of attention, his mouth moved down to her neck, bringing her in closer to him as his hand joins his other on her ass. He kneads her plump flesh, his touch travelling up to her hips before one hand comes to the front, slowly dipping lower. Seph caught his gesture, risky but cautious, seeing if she’d swat his hand away or not, to tell him whether she wanted the same as he did. Her hands stayed put on his abdomen, hell she’s let him go this far already, it’s not like this was the first time the two of them have done something like this before. Sam pulls away a split second searching for her eyes as her lashes fluttered opened, asking for permission to keep going, giving her one last chance to back out. This time it was Seph who pulled him in by cradling the back of his head, “Touch me.” Her voice was a low whisper, eyes barely open as she felt Sam’s breath hitch at her words before she reconnects their lips in a slow, sucking kiss.
Sam’s tongue glides against her bottom lip, roaming her mouth more and more with every kiss. He gropes all over her body, groaning with every squeeze of his hands. Seph could feel her body melt into his as the feeling of him enveloping her so thoroughly like this was making her knees weak and her stomach flutter. His hand comes to the back of her head, cradling it before tugging the hair elastic free from your hair, letting her hair cascade over his palm before he ran his fingers through her locks. His finger nails graze her scalp sending shivers down her spine, more goosebumps rising from his action. Her hands could only fist into his clothes as he overwhelmed her with his needy touches.
Sam’s quick to set his mind in gear, Seph can feel him begin to hike her skirt up higher and sneaking his fingers between her thighs, featherlight touches grazing her clothed cunt making her skin tingle. Her hips instinctively move forward into his hand, forcing his touch against her nerves making her whine as he firmly presses up into her, beginning small circles on her clit. Her mewl is swallowed by Sam’s mouth as his other hand dug into her skin, pulling her hips closer to his. She could feel his hard on press against her groin as his own hips buck into hers at their closeness. Sam pulls away from the kiss, his forehead resting against hers as he looks down at his hand under her skirt, feeling her underwear dampening between her thighs. He groans, Seph can feel his quickening breaths fan against her chest, his lashes fluttering as he begins to grind softly against her.
“Fuck..” He exhales, pinching her clit between his thumb and index making her choke on her breath, suppressing her squeal the best she could as she doubles into him. Her forehead falls against his shoulder, nails clawing into his sides as he brings his head down to kiss her temple, his fingers still toying with her nerves. Seph’s hands quiver as they trail down to his fly, undoing his jeans in her best attempt to free his erection. Her fumbling hands receive help from Sam’s, assisting the undoing of his pants before she eagerly palms his cock through his jeans while she waits impatiently for Sam to pull it out.
With a groan from Seph’s touches, Sam reaches into his boxers to grab his cock, pulling it out impatiently before his other hand moves from Seph’s hip to her neck, pulling her into a much messier kiss than the previous. Seph’s eyes close, her brows furrowed as she presses her breasts against Sam’s chest. She could feel him sink down to her level, her fingers fidgeting impatiently with the hem of his jeans.
Sam loops his finger around the waist band of Seph’s underwear, pulling it down gently as he pulls his lips away from hers. He begins to slip it down her hips then her thighs as he kisses down her neck and along her chest, reaching farther with every inch of his gentle pull on her underwear. Seph places her hands on his shoulder and neck, cupping his warm skin as he reached down to her ankles, “Step.” Sam looks up at her from her waist, his free hand stabilizing himself by holding her thigh. Seph gulps as he carefully steps out of her underwear, leaving her bare under her skirt.
Sam stands, returning his lips to Seph’s in a quick peck before he slips his hand in his pocket. Seph notices his not so slick move, “You are going to return that right?” Her cheeks glow red in references to her underwear now stuffed in his pocket.
“‘Course.” Sam smiles slyly before pulling her back in. The kiss heats up quick returning to its previous momentum. His lips sucked on hers with a bruising force, each of their moans swallowed by one another’s mouths as Sam guided his erection between Seph’s thighs. Her breath hitches in her throat, hips jolting at the new sensation of Sam’s tip rubbing against her clit. She moans into his lips, her hands coming up to wrap around his shoulders for support as he begins to slowly grind against her wet folds, spreading her juices like lubrication.
A relieving sigh escapes Sam, his fingers groping her ass, “Squeeze..” His request is breathless, “Tighter..” His finger nails dig into her skin as she obliges, squeezing his cock between her thigh tighter as he thrusts against her clit deliciously. Sam pulls a whine from her lips as his head dips lower into her neck, his pace quickens, using his grip on her rear as leverage to pull her back onto his length to meet his every thrust. His moans are laboured, desperate as he keens for pleasure against her. He closes his eyes as his brows knit together, lips barely agape while he holds her to him.
Seph could feel the way Sam’s cock slipped between her thighs, the way the smoothness of his head would make her knees buckle every time it dragged along her clit, every texture of his length causing her to see stars. Turns out she was just as desperate as he was. Every thrust sent her mind spinning, her nails clawed down Sam’s chest, clutching to the front of his over shirt and tugging insistently as if their bodies weren’t already pressed to one another’s so forcefully. She rocked her hips in time with his bucks, his rhythm speeding up the longer they were at it. Her mewls were muffled into his shoulder as she bit the fabric of the shirt attempting to quiet herself as Sam sent thrills of pleasure firing through her body.
Sam knew he couldn’t last long, not in a setting like this. The exhilarating suspension of getting caught, doing such things in public without anyone being aware, something about it made his heart race and his blood pump wild. Adrenaline rushed through his veins as he kept his pace, Seph’s moans reverberated against his collar driving his senses haywire. He always found her sounds so pretty, though now hearing her not only trying to conceal those noises but doing so into him because of the way he fucks her? Now that drove him crazy. He could feel her grip on him tighten every so often, the way her knees would wobble as her hips voluntarily bucked against his. Every second he drowned himself in her made his cock throb with anticipation of release.
Seph could feel her stomach flip with every stroke against her clit, the way Sam moved against her overwhelming every pleasurable sense in her body. A jolt of nerves course through her from her chest down to her centre and her eyes shot open. Seph squirmed yet she couldn’t get herself to pull away, it all felt too good all the while everything threatened to spill. Her grip on Sam’s clothes tighten, pulling on the fabric and squirming against him as he began to overstimulate her. “Sam!- Wait-“ She cuts herself off with another mewl before she could get anything out.
Instead of heeding her plea, Sam decides to go faster, bringing his head back up to watch her as she doubled into him. Seph squealed loudly, surprising Sam before he smirked as he kept his pace, smugly knowing exactly what was about to happen. Seph buried her face into the centre of Sam’s chest, her sensitivity getting the best of her before she could feel herself explode, her liquids easily gushing out of her and down her thighs and all over Sam’s cock. Sam only rode out her oversensitivity, feeling her spill all over him was only sending more intense arousal coursing through him. Everything was overwhelming him with desire let alone the fact that she was squirting out in public like this, something in that made his cock twitch extra fierce.
Every muscle in Seph seized as Sam continued to grind mercilessly against her which surely was pushing her closer to her release. “Oh my god- Sam!” She squeals, Sam’s movements never ceasing even as Seph’s hips jerks against him. His cock slides through her thighs now with much more ease as her thighs along with himself being covered in Seph’s slick squirt.
“Shh..” Sam cradles Seph’s head as she buries her face into his chest, doing her best to stay silent all the while Sam continues to chase their release. His own moans threaten to spill as they escape in strained groans, his hand gropes her rear now pushing her harder against his thrusts as he revelled in the wetness between her thighs. “Fuck, Seph-“ Sam’s laboured moan was muffled into her hair as he tried to suppress his voice, as if the squelching sounds coming from bellow weren’t already loud enough.
Seph whines against his collar, biting her lip in an attempt to quiet herself as Sam stimulated her closer and closer to her climax. She could feel it build in her stomach, faster than she could anticipate. Perhaps it was the adrenaline of doing this in such a public setting that sent her wind running miles combined with how desperate Sam was being for her. She loved how needy Sam was for her, the pride swelling in her chest adding to the arousal in her cunt as Sam’s hips met hers feverishly.
Sam could feel himself begin to edge closer to his release, pleasure coursing through his body with every stroke. He promised himself he would be quick and his body was sure promising those results with how quickly he was nearing his orgasm. However, Sam knew he wanted to finish inside her. One way or another he was going to fulfil his needs and hopefully suppress them long enough before they returned to their hotel room for the day.
He could feel the way the ridge of his tip clipped Seph’s clit with every push and pull. The textures of her vulva sending shivers through his spine the more he snapped his hips. It felt incredible, but he needed more. His mind was selfish and his body greedy. He lusts to feel the inside of her, to feel her slick cunt wrap around him and convulse in clenching spasms from her orgasm. He wanted to feel her cum around him as he pulsed for her within.
Without warning, Sam held onto Seph securely before swiftly turning them around, pushing her back against the wall before pressing himself against her. Seph reacts with a surprised yelp as his hand reaches down to loop around the back of her thigh, lifting her knee as he positioned himself snug between her legs. “Sorry, baby, I have to.” Sam’s voice is breathy, raspy as his desperation overthrows his system using his free hand to fumble with moving Seph’s skirt out of the way. She helps him, bunching up her garment so his hand could reach for his cock as he centres himself to her.
“It’s ok,” Seph giggles softly at how almost frantic he seemed to need to fuck her, “just take a breath, we’re not on a clock here.” She hooks her leg around his waist and cupping his jaw making him pause a second and look at her. His pupils dilate upon matching her gaze as he listens to her words. She was right, they could make Nate wait as long as they needed, besides he probably went in the museum on his own by now, they could catch up later.
His brows knitted together, leaning into her to connect his lips to hers as he guides his erection into her cunt. Seph moans as he kisses her slow, entering her with the same languid pace as he feels her arms wrap around his neck. Her pussy fluttered around him making his stomach flip as a groan pulls from his lungs. Her hand fists his hair, the other gripping the back of hiss neck as she pushed him closer into the kiss. Sam was slow to move, using every ounce of control in him not to fuck into her relentlessly right off the bat until she gave him the ok.
Seph whines, “Move.” She keens, voice muffled into the kiss. That was more than enough for Sam to begin drawing his hips back and thrusting back in, hitting sharp and deep into her cunt. Seph whimpers from the force of his thrusts as he quickly picked up the pace to resume the momentum he held previously, her body bouncing in time with his bucks.
Sam pulls away from the kiss, resting his forehead against hers as he took laboured breaths. His hands squeezed at the flesh of her hip and her thigh, fucking quick thrusts and hitting Seph’s pleasure points easily and efficiently as he pulled strings of stifled whimpers from her lips. He watched as her breasts bounce with his thrusts, mesmerized as his cock throbs inside her from the sight. His own moans were getting hard to suppress as he worked towards his release, knees feeling weak as the pleasure courses through his body like wild fire.
Seph brought one of her hands down to rub her clit, enticing even more pleasure to run through her veins as Sam continued to fuck her. She threw her head back, careful not to hit her head against the wall as her mouth hung open in silent cries of bliss. Her eyes closed as she focused on her pleasure, the way she could feel Sam’s cock drive into her without mercy, his size stretching her out and pummelling her cervix with every perfectly angled thrust.
“Sam please, I want to cum, please!” She quietly begs, pleading for him to fuck her just enough harder to send her over the edge. Sam happily obliges, leaning down to kiss her throat as he fucks more weight into his thrusts, bucking into her with such force it ripped one especially loud moan from Seph’s lips as she pulled hard on his hair. She quickly lets go of his locks, bringing her palm over her mouth to subdue anymore noises that would threaten to escape as Sam drove his cock into her with full force.
He could feel her clench around him, so close to her climax as her hand numbly rubs messy shapes into her clit. She could feel his quickened hot breaths on her skin, his stubble scratching her neck as his low groans vibrated against her and rumbled in his chest. Sam pushes a few more hard thrusts before Seph doubles into him, her cunt constricting harder than ever as it pulses through her climax. She bites her lip under her hand, stifling her screams as her orgasm rocks through her in harsh waves.
Seph buries her face into the side of Sam’s head as he rode her through her high, his own just around the corner as he stumbled in his pace. His hips stuttered as her hand smoothed up his chest and around his shoulder, raking her nails down his back through the fabric of his shirt. The stinging sensation of her nails on his skin was enough to send his nerves spiralling into euphoria as he cums in body wracking waves. His hips slow as he bucks shallow thrusts into her cunt with every rope of cum, gripping her tight in his grasp as he presses himself impossibly closer to her.
His heart races in his head, body numbing as his ears rang from the force of his orgasm. His eyes fall shut as he held her close, resting his weight into his forearm which pressed against the wall as he came down from his rush. Seph ran her hands soothingly along his back, scratching up his neck and through his hair as he regained himself. Slowly his eyes open, his body shifting as he lifted himself back upright to look at her, “God that was.. more intense than I expected.” He chuckles as his eyes focus on Seph’s flushed features. He notices how her hair has been messed up as her clothes were very much dishevelled and wrinkled. “We’re definitely not getting away with this one.” He grins sheepishly as one of his hands tried to straighten out her blouse, bringing it back over her shoulders to cover her chest.
Seph laughs, “I don’t think Nate needs to look at us to know what happened, he’ll know by how long we took.” She hummed, “His mistake to pair us up alone.” Seph smiles as Sam leaned down to kiss her lips. The kiss is loving and sweet as he shifts his hips to slowly pull out. Seph’s hips jerk involuntarily at the sudden stimulation making her gasp a whimper against his lips.
“Sorry.” Sam whispers into the kiss as he pecks her one last time before dropping her leg back down and tucking himself back into his pants. He takes a step back, checking Seph over and helping her reposition her clothes back in place along with her hair.
“Ugh, I feel dirty.” Seph whines half heartedly as she’s reminded about her squirt from earlier now combined with Sam’s cum slowly but surely leaking out of her.
“Let’s go find you a bathroom, museum’s gotta have one right?” Sam proposed before slipping his hand into hers and pulling her along out of the alleyway.
“Aren’t you forgetting something?” Seph smirks but her embarrassed blush betrays her as she follows Sam’s footsteps, reminding him about the underwear he’d stolen from her.
“I said I’d give them back, besides you’d dirty them now.” He justifies as he looks back at her with a smirk of his own, growing cocky upon seeing her flustered state. “I promise I’ll give them back. If it’s any consolation, it’s kind of hot knowing you’re not wearing anything under there.” his smirk teases Seph as she slaps his shoulder lightly. Sam laughs, slowing as they reach the end of the alley, “Let’s just get you cleaned up first,” he says while looking around, checking for strangers before turning back to Seph, “and then maybe a round two?” He dares, his hands resting on her hips as he watches her hopefully.
“Lord, will your dick ever be satisfied?” She chuckles at his request.
“Around you? Never.” He replies confidently, pulling her in for another kiss.

how do you need to be touched?
thank you for tagging me @socially-awkward-skeleton for this uquiz!
gently.
you need to be held as though you're going to break. you need someone to trace your scars like cracks in a wall, crumbling. their touch is almost painful; you've been without it for too long, without someone to hold you. but, you cannot bring yourself to pull away.

fervently.
you crave a hug that cracks your ribs... the feeling of your wandering soul being crushed back into the bones that can't seem to hold it. you need a hand gripping yours so tightly you almost fear it may leave a bruise, a reminder that you are here. and that you are not alone.
cautiously.
your teeth are bared, as they have been, your jaw aching for so long as growls slip free. you always have to defend yourself. you lash out in fear. you need someone who does not shrink back... a hand falling slowly to your shoulder, however briefly, in a reminder that you do not have to lunge. there is no danger here, now.
