F*cked My Way Up To The Top [Father Charlie Mayhew x reader]

pt.1

Prompts: 2/6/8

Word count: 1457

Warnings: oral! fem receiving, dom! Ish reader— this ones actually kinda just cute lol

A/n: this one was requested but i changed one of the prompts a tiny bit to fit the scheme better! i hope yall still like it tho hehe :3 and also lets pretend that the whip cuts on his back aren't fresh !!! for Y/ns sheets sake...

Copying or translating my writing is not allowed. If you see my work on another site it is stolen. Reblogs are appreciated and encouraged.

The last time you visited Church, you forgot to leave your number. You were too busy trying to sneak out to your car with no one seeing the priest's cum running down your bare (but marked) legs. Charlie had offered for you to stay the night, but you'd rather die than do the walk of shame out of a church in the daylight. When you found out you had a rare three-day weekend you began your planning. It would be unfair for you to show up and cause chaos on a Sunday... again, which is why you chose to dress your best and show up to church on a Monday.

When you strolled into the church, Father Charlie was deep in a conversation with someone you honestly couldn't get less of a shit about. Taking a seat near the back, you watch as Charlie's eyes rake over your form. You shamelessly stare as he gets visibly more and more nervous under your hungry gaze. What power you had over him, it was pathetic on his part. You loved it. The minutes ticked by agonizingly as you watched him. Nothing about the look in his eyes told you he gave a single shit about the person before him. It was honestly extremely amusing.

It wasn't long before he was making his way over to you. "Y/N, I'm surprised to see you back." He slips into the space beside you. Your head reels as his cologne invades your senses.

"I was just so touched by last week's service I had to pay another visit.” You gesture down to your slightly more church-appropriate outfit, "I even dressed modestly.

He hums, eyes darting right to your stocking-covered thighs and pencil skirt, “Are we sure...”

You follow his eyes and flush, “It's not my fault it's cold in here..." You defend.

He laughs quietly, "That's true.” He pauses for a moment before leaning closer. "You think I don't know why you’re here?" His breath is hot against your face.

"You think I don't know you’re itching to get your hands on me?" You’re quick with your response, it shocks him. "You started fidgeting like a schoolboy the moment I walked in.”

You watch as the blood rushes to Charlie’s face, painting the tips of his ears pink. He clears his throat, "Well then, what's your plan?"

"Well, my car is parked out back. So, either we sneak out and go to mine...” you pause in faux contemplation, “or we could risk everyone in this church, hearing us fucking in your office.”

The man before you gasps, you fight to contain your amusement. You try to get up, but he stops you. “What if someone sees?"

"We've been friends since high school, Father. This whole town knows we know each other."

The worry in his brow doesn’t budge, you sigh- “Look, maybe this was a mistake, we can just forget—“ "No- No it—“ he cuts you off, “Well maybe it is but I don’t care. I will repent later, go wait and I'll be out in a few minutes.”

oh god not again

"I won't leave you for thirty minutes again, I promise,” He reassures.

•

You’re 100% sure you blacked out because now you were pulling into your driveway with Charlie in your passenger seat. “Aren’t I just such a gentleman?” You tease.

“Yeah? In what way?” His voice matches your playful tone.

"I drove you to my house before— ya know...” you put the car in park.

“No, I don't know, before what?"

"Before fucking your brains out." You shrug nonchalantly as you pull the key out of the ignition.

“Is that what I did? Fucked your brains out?"

"Yup!" You open your car door, stepping one foot out before turning back to him. "And that's what I'm gonna do to you so— c'mon!”

You skip towards your front door with Charlie right on your trail. It's been a while since you had a man in your house, your body vibrates with anticipation as you unlock your front door.

"You know, one of these days you should let me take you to lunch or something.”

"We'll See," You shrug, shrugging off your jacket. "Behave for me today and I'll let you do whatever you want.” You turn to him, pressing your chest against him, and his hands immediately find their place on your hips.

"I think I like the sound of that~" Charlie leans down, capturing your lips in a gentle kiss. You revel in the taste of his lips on yours. You didn't know what it was— but something about Charlie was so intoxicating. He was tall, much taller than you— and as your torso pressed against his, you realized he was hard in his slacks. "That's," he groans, pressing his visible bulge into your stomach, "that, darling, is what you do to me."

You hum and take him by the hand to lead him through your house and into your bedroom. He looked good-- When did he not look good? Wasting no time you bring Charlie's face back to yours for another searing kiss.

Charlie's hands greedily pull your neatly tucked blouse out from your skirt. You help him lift it over your head, the chill of the room sending goosebumps up your arms. You quickly pull your skirt and tights down, leaving you in just your white ruffle socks and underwear. Charlie quickly mirrors your actions, ridding himself of his shirt and pants quicker than you had expected— damn he was hot.

Your padded feet patter across the hardwood as you make your way onto your bed. You beckon Charlie over to you with your finger. His strong body towers over you as your back collides with the headboard behind you. His finger trails down the side of your neck, the marks he had left last week were mostly faded— that was no good. His lips greedily work to leave more love bites, you whine.

Raking your manicured nails down his toned chest, he groans against your skin, “fuck.” he sits up to get a better look at you under him, “Let me taste you, baby, please?”

You bring your foot up to his chest, pushing gently to get him on his back, "Beg. Maybe I'll consider." You seductively crawl over to him, sitting on his clothed cock. He revels from underneath you, his hands squeezing at your thighs and ass. You kiss all over his torso as he struggles to form a coherent thought— drunk on you.

“Please— Baby please, I need to taste you.” He slurs, “Sit on my face— suffocate me I don't care. I'll die a happy man.”

You giggle against his skin, nipping at him with your teeth playfully. “How did you know flattery works on me~”

“Lucky guess,” he chuckles.

Charlie desperately paws at you wordlessly pleading for you to end his suffering. You comply— removing your underwear. The moment your dripping cunt was close enough his lips were latched onto you. Kissing licking and biting at you like a starved man, he curses against you again.

The grip on your thighs is almost painful, you are certain he would leave crescent moons on them. You loved it. You rut against his nose as his tongue prods at your hole— you moan theatrically, folding over as the pleasure shoots through your whole body. Charlie sloppily laps at your folds until your legs begin to shake.

Your orgasm takes you by complete and utter surprise. Your vision goes white as Charlie licks up everything gratefully.

“fuck!” you pant, removing yourself from above him to slump onto your mattress. Charlie lay there panting— his face and chest kissed in a deep blush. Your eyes trail down his torso and to his boxers, the grey material soiled with a dark spot. You gasp, “did you?”

“yes,” he shamefully admits, hiding his face behind his arms

“Hey hey no it's okay!” you quickly reassure him. You try to pry his arms away from his face. “C'mon lemme see you, baby.”

“I’m embarrassed,” he mumbles.

You laugh lightly, kissing his arms in an attempt to lower his guard. “That was like the hottest thing I've ever experienced.”

“Really?” he peaks out at you.

“uh— are you kidding??” you exclaim, he fully puts down his arm and you leave a peck on his lips. “stay? Just for a little?”

He smiles tiredly, “You're gonna have a hard time getting me to leave.”

Literally so random I remembered when I watched one of Hamzah’s old streams and he said he loves being shirtless in the kitchen with his alexa 😭so that’s what kinda inspired this. ENJOY!! ALSO THANK U FOR 140 FOLLOWERS 😞 I love you guys ᡣ𐭩ྀིྀི

Weekend with Hamzah ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁

You and Hamzah haven’t been able to see each other since you both were so busy, you were busy with work and he was moving into a new place. And finally after Hamzah settled in, he invited you to come and stay over. You pack your bags for the weekend and some extra essentials you wanted to keep at Hamzah’s.

It’s Friday night and you arrive at his apartment, walking up the stairs and knocking . Not even 2 minutes pass when the door opens and you see Hamzah, grinning . “Hi babyy” he pulls you in through the front door, giving you a hug kissing your cheek. “ Hiii babee” you say hugging him tighter. “Show me around!!” you say excited.

Hamzah gives you a tour of the whole apartment, showing you how much bigger his kitchen is, his patreon corner, his bedroom ect. “ Yea that’s all” he says sitting on the edge of his bed turning to look at you, “I love it”. You put on your pajama’s and put away extra clothes and essentials in a drawer in Hamzah’s bedroom and bathroom that he saved for you.

Hamzah peeks into the bathroom,“ Do you wanna order in food?” “ Yesss let’s get Chick-fil-A”. The food comes and you guys eat it on the couch while watching Tangled. The movie ends and Hamzah starts singing “ Somethingggguuh that I wannnt” he gets up grabbing Red and making him dance. While you grab Blue making him do the same thing.

You wake up with the sun hitting your face and Hamzah clinging onto you. You turn facing Hamzah, who’s dead asleep. You can’t help but stare admiring, his chest slowly rising up and down ,his long lashes, the mole above his lip. You give him a peck on his lips before you get up to wash your teeth.

You come out the restroom and see Hamzah still half asleep sitting shirtless on the edge of the bed facing you as he rubs his eyes. He looks up at you, “ Why did you brush your teeth without me” he says in a low sleepy tone. You can’t help but smile seeing how cute he looks. “ I’m sorry“ you walk towards him wrapping your arms around his neck. He hugs your waist and lays back, having you lay on his chest. Then he turns now laying on top of you.

You guys lay there for a little, “ Go brush your teeth babe”, all you get in response is a grunt. “ Cmonn, I’ll go with you?” “Okay!” Hamzah says smiling, immediately getting up. You look at him grinning shaking your head as he grabs your hand taking you with him. He finishes and you both head to the kitchen.

Hamzah walks in opening the fridge asking what you wanted to eat. You both end up agreeing on French Toast. You guys play music as you both gather the ingredients and start cooking. You dip the bread into the mixture as Hamzah cooks and flips them.

North by Clario starts playing and Hamzah looks at you while singing. He grabs you and starts swaying and dancing with you. You both are grinning and laughing. “Oh shittt” Hamzah says as he turns, flipping over the burnt piece of toast, “ I’ll eat this one” he says scrunching his nose clenching his teeth, you both laugh. You both eat and get ready to go run errands.

After a long day you guys come back home and rest. You and Hamzah sit on the couch in your matching pajamas playing Fortnite. “ Wait I think I see someone” “ Where?”. Someone comes up from the hill and attacks you. “ HAMZAHHHHH” “ WHEREEE OH I SE-IM COMING IM COMING”. Hamzah comes and starts attacking them while your character is on the ground “ LEAVE MY GIRLFRIEND ALONEEE AUGHHH”

He ends up killing them and he runs back to revive your character, “ Don’t worry baby daddy’s here” he says in a cocky tone and turns smirking at you. “ Never mind let me die” you say side eyeing him holding in your laugh. You guys continue playing till you both get tired and head off to bed.

The next morning you guys wake up and eat breakfast. You pack your bags to go back home. Hamzah helps collect your things and walks you out to your car. He places your things in the car and you turn around, seeing his eyebrows scrunched and eyes squinted as the sun beams on his face. “ I’ll see you next weekend okay” you lean, giving him a kiss. “ Okay” he says trying not to seem bothered. “ Okay byee mr nonchalant” you say poking his stomach. He flinches then smiles.

You walk over getting into your car ready to drive off. Hamzah follows, closing your door then leaning on your car door. Hamzah just stares at you not leaning away from your car. “Stopppp I’ll be backkk, if anything you can come and stay over!” “ I knowww…okay bye before I pull you out of the car and make you stay” “ I mean I wouldn’t refuse……” you say looking up at him. Hamzah squints his eyes and smiles “ ….Okay byeee I love you” “ Byeee I love you more”.

Sorry for not posting I was on vacation and then got sad but I’m okay now I missed you guys. I tried writing a longer story this time I feel like my ff are always short😭 I don’t hate it tho but I hope you guys will like the kinda long ones too. And like always sorry for any typos.☕️

Your matching pjs😍😍😍 ( lmaoooo I laughed so

hard when I found this)

RealAgeAU Drabble - Costume

I had a a few ideas for drabbles :3 And I settled on this one for now :3

Mostly because I have one mental image in my head that is just too cute to pass up and I wanted to add more cuteness to this AU so here we GO! @spotaus You ready my friend?

First drabble Prev Drabble Next Drabble

Als I am really considering making a masterpost for these drabbles and any related asks/answers and drawings people make... Just a thought.

*------------------*

Cross watches as Nightmare looks at the different options of costumes. They are in the bigger city nearby to actually give him some options.

It had been thanks to Crop that they even knew about this happening. Kinda like a halloween get together but it mostly celebrates the start of the colder seasons and the time of rest the land needs.

But with everyone in costume because Halloween happens around the same time.

But it gave them the excuse to take Nightmare out on a tiny trip and let him pick out soemthing he would like to wear. Killer says he is making progress on that front but Cross doubts it as Nightmare still just only wears the stuff they picked out for him or Dust's old things.

Even if Nightmare looks adorable in the for him much too big hoody.

Cross smiles down at Nightmare "And? Any ideas for what you want to be dressed as?"

Nightmare shoots him a look and shrugs "Why get dressed? I am a skeleton... That is spooky enough right?"

Cross feels part of his soul melt but tries to keep it in. Nightmare hadn't fully noticed that his way of speaking is starting to slip more and more into more childlike talking and words. Even if he still tries to speak in his fancy way. It is just too cute.

Cross sees it as them doing a good job at this whole parent thing.

Cross grins "True... But Horror already decided to go as a lumberjack and Killer is going as Jason from friday the 13th." Cross himself hadn't decided yet and Cross knows that Dust is planning on just matching whatever Nightmare wants to get dressed as.

Nightmare frowns and stares at all the options. He points towards a costume and Cross checks it.

It is the cheapest thing there is.

Cross saw this coming but he knows how to deal with that! Cross grins "Oh? A little devil? We can do that. Come. We can look at more costumes for that."

Nightmare looks a lot more unsure as he rubs his arm "This is fine... stuff is expensive."

Cross crouches down and leans on his hand "Hey... it is fine... Dust got a budget together and everything. Let me worry about money okay?"

Nightmare frowns but looks considered at some of the more detailed options instead of the cheap stuff. Much better. Nightmare slowly starts to gravitate towards the vampire stuff and Cross starts to think this may be a success when-

a soft sizzle.

Oh are you kidding him!?

"You seriously gonna let him get that stuff?"

Nightmare blinks and grins brightly at the sound of Error and searches for him before spotting him near the ceiling.

Cross glares and hisses "Error." he glances around nervously.

Error snorts "Calm down. I know how to time stuff. People hardly ever notice I am in universes. Seriously though. yOu are going to let him grab this shi-stuff." Error quickly changes his sentence when Cross glares at him.

Cross crosses his arms "Well we want to have stuff to get dressed in for the party. We are trying to fit in."

Nightmare looks up at Cross and smiles a tiny bit "Error can look with us?"

Cross really wants to say no. Not like Killer. Killer hates the fact that Nightmare has a crush on the other. Cross just doesn't want to deal witht he headache that is Error himself.

Now that Cross knows what he knows he realised that Nightmare always had a crush on Error. No one ever noticed because... well... Nightmare went about those feelings as any six year old did. hanging out, trying to invite the other to play with them. bringing small tokens and things. trying to be included.

Error snorts "Nah. Don't want to be stuck in this store of bad quality." and he nudges one of the costumes offered.

Cross sighs annoyed "So why appear?"

Error looks smug "I saw you were going to let Nightmare grab bad quality stuff. of course i step in."

That is another thing Cross doesn't like. Knowing that Error just, glances in whenever he feels like it. Cross glares and hisses "Stop having a window on us open. One it is weird and two if anyone sees it!"

Error waves it off "I just check for a few seconds when i know it is clear. Calm down." he shoots Ngihtmare a look "Seriously though. You are a god. don't gods deserve like the best things?"

Nightmare shrugs and mutters "Jsut got stuff because they wanted it..."

Cross also finds it rich coming from Error as Error still wears some upgraded hobo-jacket that looks like it is barely holding it together.

Error blinks before huffing "Yeah no. I am getting you a costume of actual quality." he looks areound "vampire?"

Nightmare suddenly looks a lot less comfortable with the attention adn returns to Cross's side to hide partly. Nightmare never likes it when others start offering stuff to him. Cross leans downa dn picks up their small charge.

Cross nudges their skulls together and mutters "It is okay. You had an idea of what you like?"

Nightmare just pushes clsoer "it is dumb. easy stuff is fine."

Cross nudges him again "It isn't dumb. What do you want?"

Nightmare remains quiet for a long time and Cross waits patiently. Just let him feel it out first. Let him decide for himself. Error looks a lot less patient as he just stands there, obviously wnating to tap his foot but refrains from it.

Nightmare eventually mutters "liked... vampire becuase it is a bat..."

Cross blinks and grins "You want to be a tiny bat?"

Ngihtmar eshrugs again and tries to hide further. Clearly done with being verbal.

Cross nods and nzuzles the skull "I am sure we can figure out a tiny bat costume." MAybe they can get a cape? get some wings attached? Cross is srue they can figure it out-

Error nods "A bat. That is easy." he looks thoughtful before nodding and with a sizzle he is gone.

Cross sighs loudly but Ngihtmare giggles and gives a happy mutter "He likes me."

Cross sighs loudly "You are very clearly he favourite. Which isn't a good thing bud, you don't want to be a god's favourite." at least that is the lesson Cross got out of stories.

Nightmare hums as he nuzzles his skull against Cross's "You guys were always my favourites..."

Cross hugs Ngihtmare close as he walks towards the exit of the store "You are so sweet. and you always cared so much about us." Ngihtmare mutters about not being sweet but relaxes with the affection.

Cross gets a ride back from Ellie and returns home to the others. He is only done for a few minutes with retelling everything as they make sure Nightmare eats his snack when they hear more sizzling.

A moment later a small package drops on their dining table.

Nightmare blinks nad opens it only to gasp.

Because that is a bright purple hoody with bat wings sewed in the back and a hood with little bat ears and a grumpy bat face on the hood.

It is adorable and Nightmare looks adorable in it and Cross has to admit it was a perfect pic. a very comfortable and cute costume for the coming outing.

Killer grumbles as he stabs his fork into his own food. He glares at his plate "Gonna have to figure out how to scare a god."

Yeah... Cross is hoenstly a little curious as to how Kilelr plans to do that. For now their babybones is happy in his new hoody and they have a very powerful ally who wants Nightmare happy like them.

*------------------*

Was this whole drabble an excuse to get Nightmare a hoody with little bat wings and bat ears? Yes. Yes it was. And he HAS one now!! :D <3

Rewatching Avatar: the last Airbender (WITH MY MOM!)

Ok so i convinced my mom to watch ATLA with me. she's 68, but with the mind (and the looks mind you) of a 40y/o woman who loves cartoons, so it was quite the blast.

i'll go Book by Book and tell you guys her very amusing (and accurate) thoughts.

So here i go.

MY MOM WATCHES ATLA: BOOK I

-first coment is when she saw Zuko and it was like "ooh, he's hot!" and i was like "he's a teenager" and she was like "he's also not real" so point for her.

-IMMEDIATELY after learning the Avatar has to learn the four elements, she already knew Zuko was going to chance sides and teach Firebending to Aang.

-First episodes were a bit slow but she caught onto it because of the fantasy elements. she had a bit of a hard time picking the whole bending thing. not the bending itself, but the fact that not everyone who lives in the earth kingdom or wears green is an earthbender, but she catch it up quickly.

-she pointed out that Aang's airbending is not very consistent. "Why doesn't the Avatar just blow them away?! he did so in that other episode" and well, its kinda true.

-when it was Haru's episode i said "you're gonna like him". and when Haru showed up she was "ooooh i like him! not as much as the prince tho."

-"you realize its the brother (sokka) who things all the plans, right? he's the brains" she said, halfway through Book One. she's a smart one my mom.

-"when is the earth master going to appear?" "aang has to learn waterbending first" "well but he could appear!" "just wait, mom -.-"

-she is dumbfounded and amazed at the creatures of the Avatar World. "i don't know what the heck that is but is cute/ugly as fuck".

-"this girl Katara is gonna end up with the prince right? Fire and water, perfect match" oh mom. you're in for a dissapointment.

-in the fortune teller episode "but aang's too young for katara! he's twelve right? and she's, fifteen or something?" and i said "yeah, it was kind of a thing at the time" and she said "makes no sense. also, the Avatar is like a superhero. those people... belong to the world, you know? they cant be with anyone". she's pretty wise my mom.

-"I LIKE JET!" then Jet tries to kill the old man "i dont like Jet" then Jet tries to blow up the dam "i hate Jet."

-She thinks Uncle Iroh is the best, specially after he was kidnapping. "He sure knows how to fight" she said. "he's a bit of a goof chummy guy but he gives good advice" (remember this is still Book One).

-she was mindblowed by "the storm". "poor prince. no wonder he's always so mad. still, i like his scar. it looks like a flame."

and i was like "what?" and i realized that, yes, zuko scar sometimes looks like a flame when looked from the side. my mom had to point that out to me T.T.

-"WHY IS KATARA PRACTICING WITH THE WATER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT-?! AND SHE SCREAMING TOO! SHE'S GONNA BE FOUND!" right you are, mom.

-after roku's episode "poor aang. he's gonna do all that, learn all the elements, fight that son of a bitch, and all that before summer? its too much" :(

-during Bato's episode "nah. nah, you can't do that Aang, come on." "he feels left out" "but that scrolls is important right? its about the guys father!" right she was. also she didn't stop laughing at Uncle Iroh flirting with the bounty hunter girl.

-she was having none of Master Pakku bullshit. when katara confronted him she was "hell yeah, show him whats good!" and when we found out master pakku was gran gran old 'boyfriend' "OH, now he's gonna teach her just because she's the grandaughter of his lost love. right. -.-" and i was laughing mad because dont we all know its the truth? XD

-when she saw the fire nation armada she was like "O.O HOW DO YOU EVEN BEAT THAT?"

-and when zuko ship exploded "noooooo! dont kill my princeee, he's so preety! :("

-she doesn't know why sokka felt in love so fast with Yue, and neither do I.

-she got repeatidely frustrated by Aang not taking serious the situations that should be serious, but she shrugged it as "he's twelve".

-at the end of the season, when we see Azula for the first time i told her "i cant BEGIN to tell you how long we had to wait to see how this turned out, because season two took forever to air (we live in latino america)". she was just as excited as i was and wanted to see more.

-as a personal note, i watched this series as a kid and its wild to rewatch it as an adult becase, like, you can apreaciate how well paced and well thought everything is, and how the characters actions NOW reflect what we will learn from them later.

All in all , my mom liked it Book I A LOT, and we waited little in watching book II.

its late so i'll talk more about the other books in other posts. let me know my thoughts so i can pass them onto my mom! :D

But You Walked In The Room And I Knew At Our First Glance, With You I Wanna Dance

@kaneraweek day 2: reunion!! I went with a unique take on the prompt, and it ended up kinda long. Hope y'all enjoy it!!

Read on AO3!

Hera remembered her high school years fairly well. It was strange to think that it was already ten years since she’d graduated. She definitely didn’t feel old enough for that—although some days and late nights at work made her feel twice that old.

To be fair, she was a year younger than most of her classmates. She’d been a smart kid, smart enough that they’d moved her up a grade when she graduated to high school, and kept up with the other kids easily. It was those smarts that had gotten her through college if not easily, at least fairly smoothly.

And here she was, ten years after the whole experience, about to go to a reunion of her graduating class. And dreading it immensely.

“It can’t possibly be that bad,” her roommate, Omega, scoffed from where she was sitting on her bed, watching Hera get ready in the adjoining bathroom. “I mean, it’s a bunch of your friends. Aren’t you excited to see them again?”

“Some of them,” Hera admitted as she carefully applied mascara. “Lucy—she’s the one who organized the whole event—was always sweet. And it’s going to be very satisfying to see if Gabby brings Matt. They had the biggest crushes on each other back then, and now they work together.”

Omega grinned. “Nice. So what’s the big deal?”

Hera grimaced a little. “Well…”

Her friend held up a hand. “Ah, right. That guy you hate is gonna be there. I still don’t get why he’s so bad.”

Capping the mascara brush with a little more force than strictly necessary, Hera tossed it to the side. “That’s because you never met him.”

“I may as well have,” Omega remarked. Clearing her throat, she imitated Hera’s voice. “‘Kanan Jarrus was an arrogant, wise-cracking jerk who thought he was sooooo much better than all of us. I’d be glad if I never saw his stupid face again, no matter how cute I found it.’”

Shooting Omega an offended look, Hera said, “I did not find him cute.”

Omega shrugged innocently. “You talk about him an awful lot for someone who doesn’t find him cute.”

Sighing with annoyance, Hera turned back to the mirror. It was true, she’d ranted about Kanan a time or two to Omega. But in her defense, he was an obnoxious little jerk.

He’d been two years older than her, but thanks to a late birthday and homeschooling most of his life, he’d stayed back a grade. Hera’s first year of high school had been his first year as well, and they’d immediately clashed.

In her defense, he’d acted like he knew everything and took nothing seriously. And worst of all, despite seeming to ignore all the school work they were given, Kanan had matched Hera at every test and quiz. It had infuriated her, and she’d done everything in her power to defeat him at every turn.

This had continued throughout high school—to their friend’s dismay—and into the first year of college, when they discovered they’d gone to the same school. But then, a few months into her sophomore year, Hera’s mother had fallen ill. Hera had raced home, just in time to say goodbye.

It had been hard to go back after the funeral. But she’d forced herself to, regardless. The thought of Kanan getting ahead was a keen motivation.

But then she’d come back, and Kanan was gone.

At the time, she’d simply thought, good, and moved on. Later, she’d thought to wonder where he’d gone—but schoolwork and life was all consuming. Hera didn’t have time to look up someone who’d annoyed her most of her life.

(not all of it, she had to admit, if only to herself. There were times when Kanan had been…not awful. But she didn’t spend much time dwelling on that.)

Finishing her makeup, Hera turned to face Omega and spread her arms. “Well? How do I look?”

Her friend scrutinized her, taking in her outfit—a soft orange dress that contrasted her green skin beautifully, with a full skirt and wide sleeves that hit just above her elbows, one slightly off the shoulder. Nodding in approval, Omega said, “I’m so glad you let us convince you to wear a dress.”

Grimacing, Hera said, “I’d better not regret it by the end of the night.”

Omega headed with her out into the main room of their apartment, where Hera slid on her boots and grabbed her purse and a jacket. As she pulled it on, she told Omega, “If I text you the code phrase, call me and make up some excuse to get me home.”

Laughing, Omega said, “I’m sure it won’t be that bad. Have a good time.”

“I wouldn’t bet on it,” Hera muttered darkly as she headed out the door.

~~~

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you look this nervous.”

Kanan glared at the grinning face of his friend, Kelly Severide. The other man looked far too amused about this situation. “I’m not nervous.”

This was a complete lie. Kanan was definitely nervous, and they both knew it. They both knew exactly why. Severide had been a year ahead of him in their high school, but they’d been pretty good friends. He’d even been there when Kanan had realized—

Enough of that. The more you think about her, the more nervous you’ll be.

“I can see you trying not to think about it,” Severide observed. “You know, I’m not exactly a great example of working through your feelings, but if you want to talk about it—”

“I’m fine,” Kanan cut him off. “Remind me why you’re coming to this event again? This isn’t your class.”

“Cause Lucy invited me. And I’m invested,” Severide added, wiggling his eyebrows. Kanan chose to ignore it.

The two of them were driving together, in Severide’s Mustang, to the event center where the Lothal City High School’s Class of ‘15 Reunion was happening. It was going to be a great event, Kanan was sure of that. Lucy, the organizer, had always been good at that kind of thing.

That wasn’t why he was nervous. He was nervous because he was about to see, for the first time in years, someone who was…important seemed a strange word for it. Hera Syndulla had shaped so much of his formative years, pushing him to work harder than he would have otherwise.

He’d kind of hated her for a couple years. She’d seemed so obnoxiously sure that she knew everything, and Kanan hadn’t been in a great place when he’d had to leave his peaceful existence as a homeschooler to head into high school. So he’d pushed back, and found that irritating her was an outlet. One that turned out to be kind of fun.

But also, just because he’d been homeschooled didn’t mean he was going to let some prodigy school him. Kanan had been ahead of almost everyone in their school, with the exception of Hera. They’d competed fiercely for the three years they’d been in school together.

And yet, that last year, things had felt different. Kanan hadn’t really been able to put a name to it for a while. Certain friends of his (namely, Severide, and his best friends Matt and Andy) had claimed that Kanan had a crush on Hera. Kanan had scoffed and ignored the commentary.

And then they’d wound up at the same college, with Hera the only familiar figure in a school full of strangers, and Kanan had started to wonder if there was a reason he listened more closely when she raised her hand in class, or why his eyes always managed to find her in a crowd.

He really hated it when Severide was right.

But just as he started thinking about it, things had changed.

(He’d seen Hera slip out of class ten minutes before it finished, and headed after her, figuring he’d offer her his notes and maybe a few teasing comments. See if he could make things a little less tense between them.

But then he’d found her in an empty hallway, clutching her phone with a death grip and staring at the wall. And the look in her eyes…Kanan knew it all too well. He’d felt it, seen it in his grandfather’s face when he’d gotten the news about Depa.

“Are you okay?” he asked, throwing aside any pretense as he approached.

Hera looked up, and for a moment Kanan wondered if she was going to punch him. But then her face crumpled and the tears spilled forth. “It’s my mom,” she whispered, choking back a sob.

And Kanan, despite their animosity, despite how much he knew she didn’t like him, felt his heart break a little for her in that moment. Stepping forward, he’d pulled her into a hug, and let her just cry.)

Hera had left the school to go see her mother. She’d only been gone for a few weeks when Kanan found himself leaving the school behind, too. And he was leaving for good—the fire academy he’d taken a test for had accepted him, and he needed to be there ASAP. So Kanan had left, finishing his associates degree online, and went to become a firefighter.

Overall, it turned out well. He loved what he was doing now, and he probably wouldn’t have had the patience for three more years of that school. But Kanan had never seen Hera again, and there were many times he wondered, with a twinge, what would have happened if he’d stayed. He knew vaguely where she was at, thanks to mutual friends, but they hadn’t seen each other in nine years.

And, as Severide pulled into the parking lot, that was about to change.

They parked, and Kanan bailed out of the car before Severide could start joking about being his wingman or something like that—he really needed to remember to not tell Severide about things like this—and headed toward the building. The nervousness built in his chest, but he wasn’t about to give in to it.

The curiosity was stronger, anyway. For the most part. He stopped at the door and glanced back to see if Severide was keeping up. He was only a few steps behind him, and was wearing a decidedly obnoxious grin. “In a hurry for some reason?”

“I just didn’t want to be stuck in a car with you anymore,” Kanan informed him, pulling the door open. “Ready to go?”

“Absolutely. Hey, you want me to talk you up in there? I can be a great wingman—”

“We both know that is absolutely not true,” Kanan told him. “So don’t even think of it.”

Severide laughed, and then they were inside.

The room was tastefully decorated, with hanging lights, a “Class of ‘15” banner hanging from the ceiling, and tables surrounded with folding chairs clustered here and there. A long buffet table outlined the far wall. There were already quite a crowd of people here, and Kanan vaguely recognized some of them. He hadn’t been close to many of the people in his grade, though.

“There’s Matt and Gabby,” Severide said, and Kanan followed his gesture to where the couple were standing by the buffet table, arm in arm. “How many people do you think have said “I told you so” about the dating thing so far?”

Kanan started to answer—and then his words stuck in his throat as he spotted the two women talking with Matt and Gabby.

The first he vaguely registered as being Lucy, the woman who’d set up the whole reunion. She’d been friends with almost everyone in their grade, despite not being the most popular among them, and had stayed more connected than anyone else.

And then next to her, in an orange dress that lit up like a sunrise against her green skin, was Hera Syndulla.

She was…different. Taller, and looked stunningly elegant and self-assured. The warmth of the smile she directed at Lucy was enough to stop Kanan dead in his tracks and…kriff. Even from a distance he could hear her voice. There weren’t enough words in the galaxy to describe that voice—like the song of a violin’s strings, pulling him toward her.

He was pretty sure Severide was laughing at him from next to him, but suddenly, Kanan wasn’t sure he cared. “You okay?” his friend asked.

Words fail me. “Fine,” Kanan said, tearing his gaze away from Hera. Come on, Jarrus, get it together. Just because she’s beautiful doesn’t mean she doesn’t hate you. And maybe she’s a terrible person now, who isn’t smart and witty and passionate about what’s right.

And maybe I’m about to sprout wings and fly out of here. “If I start to say anything too stupid,” he told Severide, “hit me.”

Grinning, Severide said, “You got it, buddy.”

Taking a deep breath, Kanan headed toward the group across the room. Here goes nothing.

~~~

So far, the event actually wasn’t that bad. It was good to see some of her friends again—Matt and Gabby were adorable together, and Lucy was busy regaling them with horror stories from her job. Hera was finally starting to relax and enjoy herself.

And then. A voice that was familiar and yet…not. Older and deeper, without any of the cracks of youth.

“Hey.”

Hera spun around, and her heart jumped into her throat. She’d recognize that smile anywhere, no matter how much the man wearing it had changed.

And he had changed a lot. Kanan had used to be her height, maybe a little taller. Now he was at least as tall as Matt, dark hair swept back in a ponytail. He had a goatee, and was wearing a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. And he looked…good. To Hera’s absolute mortification, she felt herself blush, and prayed it wasn’t obvious.

“Hey, Kanan,” Matt said, giving him a wave. “Hera, Lucy, did you know Kanan’s working with us now? Transferred over to our station…when was it?”

“About two months ago,” Kanan said. He looked as infuriatingly at ease as he always had, and Hera felt a reassuring spark of annoyance. That’s more like it. “Pretty sure Severide had something to do with it, though.”

“I will neither confirm nor deny that.” Hera’s gaze flashed to his companion—Kelly Severide, who’d been a year older than them and close friends with Kanan. His trademark grin, which exuded both cockiness and a friendly demeanor, was in place, and he was dressed more casually than anyone else in the building.

“Why am I not surprised that you’re here?” she said. “Considering this isn’t your actual graduating class.”

Severide shrugged. “You guys are more interesting than anyone else in my class. No offense, Casey.”

Matt laughed. “None taken. I’d rather hang out with you guys anyway.” Hera saw the way Gabby settled a little closer to him at his words, and held back a grin. Almost automatically, she exchanged a look with Kanan—who she’d never been friends with, but everyone in their class had bemoaned Gabby and Matt’s cluelessness over the years.

Their eyes met for a moment, and Hera forced herself not to look away. Don’t back down now, Syndulla. There was no way to get out of it without actually talking to him, unfortunately. “I never knew you were planning to be a firefighter,” she told him. Harmless enough.

“Never came up, I guess,” Kanan said with a shrug. “I never would have made it without you there pushing me, though.”

Well. That’s…unexpected. Why was he acting so…humble, almost? Not as prickly and overly confident as he had been as a kid, always interrupting in the middle of classes or getting on her nerves.

Maybe because he’s not a teenage boy with a chip on his shoulder, a more reasonable side of her brain whispered. He’s grown up. Into a man—one who’s not exactly terrible looking, either.

Oh, none of that, she scolded herself. Maybe this wasn’t her reasonable side after all.

Before she could even think of something else to say, the lights went out, and the entire room was plunged into darkness.

~~~

As darkness dropped over them, startled voices rang out and Kanan bit back a groan. This is so on brand for our life. He heard Severide curse, and a few seconds later a phone light flashed to life, nearly blinding Kanan.

It illuminated Hera’s face, a deep frown twisting her face. “Lucy, tell me you were allowed to plug in all those lights.”

“I…didn’t ask.” Lucy admitted. “I didn’t think it would be a big deal.”

“Probably just a blown fuse, in that case,” Matt guessed. “Kanan, go check that out. We’ll try and keep things from blowing up down here.”

“On it, Lieutenant,” Kanan told him.

“I’ll go with you.”

Hera’s voice was the exact last one he’d expected to hear, and Kanan threw her a startled look. “Um…”

“I went to school for mechanical engineering,” she told him with a touch of irritation that was so familiar Kanan almost laughed. Only almost, because that would get him punched in the face. “Whatever happened, it might be helpful to have someone who knows what they’re doing.”

“Fair enough,” Kanan said, deciding it really wasn’t worth a fight. “Okay, we’ll be right back. Uh—Lucy, where’s the breaker box?”

“The place is only one floor, so…somewhere on the south side of the building?” Lucy offered. “I didn’t see it when I took the tour, so it’s somewhere out of the way. It’s not that big, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find.”

“Got it,” Kanan said. Pulling out his own phone and switching on the flashlight, he remembered a doorway on the far side of the room he’d spotted earlier and started toward it.

And then stopped, realizing Hera wasn’t following him. Glancing over his shoulder, he saw her talking to Gabby, frowning fiercely. Finally, she gave a quick nod, and turned to head after Kanan.

Interesting. Kanan briefly contemplated asking what that was about, but decided to not push his luck. Instead, he waited for her to catch up with him. “Ready?” he asked.

“Ready,” Hera said, and they headed through the crowd to the far side of the room.

Things were already a mess—people panicking, pushing into others. Kanan had to stop multiple times to calm down a few people. Hera helped with that, and Kanan was surprised at how quickly people listened to her. Her calm, authoritative tone pulled many a former classmate out of a panicked state by the time they’d made it to the far side of the room.

“I’m officially impressed,” Kanan told her as he tried the door. It swung open, and he breathed a quiet sigh of relief. “Where’d you learn crowd control like that?”

“The military,” Hera told him, stepping through the door he held open for her, and Kanan’s eyebrows shot up.

“I…didn’t know you were interested in that,” he said, following her through the door and into an empty, dark hallway. “Back in high school, anyway.”

Hera shrugged, holding up her phone to illuminate the hall. “It helped pay my way through college after…well, I needed the free tuition. And I always wanted to do something to help people.”

“That, I remember,” Kanan said, a smile pulling at the corner of his mouth as memories whispered through his mind. “With the amount of actual physical fights you got into, I’m shocked you were the valedictorian.”

“Not for lack of trying on your part,” Hera quipped as they kept moving. “You were certainly motivated to get there before me.”

“Nah, not valedictorian,” Kanan said. “I definitely didn’t have what it took to make a speech in front of everyone. You were way better for that. I just wanted to beat you at everything else.”

Hera laughed, and Kanan felt like his heart could take flight. He’d never made her laugh before, and he suddenly thought he’d do anything to hear the sound again. “Oh, is that all?”

“That’s all,” Kanan agreed, pausing to squint at a door. Satisfied it wasn’t what he was looking for, he kept going, adding, “I rarely succeeded, though.”

He heard Hera make a soft, thoughtful noise. “You’re so much less—you’re different than I remembered.” 

Kanan couldn’t quite hold back a snort of amusement as they turned a corner. “You mean less obnoxious, don’t you?”

“I didn’t say that,” Hera said. “But now that you mention it…”

“Oh, thanks,” Kanan said, unable to hold back a grin. “But you’re not wrong, I was kind of a pain when I was a kid. Especially then. I was ticked off about being shoved into the public school system and being looked down on just because the way I had learned was different than everyone else. You…kind of happened to be an easy target because you were just as ready to pick a fight as I was. And after a while it got kind of fun.”

He heard Hera let out a scoff. “Oh, very flattering.”

“Hey, you just called me obnoxious,” Kanan pointed out. “Fair is fair.” He paused at a new junction, pointing his phone light toward a nearby door. “Huh. Utilities—that could be it.”

“Let’s check it out,” Hera agreed.

The door turned out to be locked. But Hera dug through her purse and produced a mini tool kit. With the contents, they managed to pick the lock.

“I still can’t believe you carry a tool kit with you everywhere,” Kanan said, pushing the door open. The room inside was dark, but he lifted his phone, illuminating the wall, and—bingo. Breaker box.

“Let’s just say I’ve learned it’s better to be safe than sorry,” Hera told him wryly. “And as a firefighter, you should know it’s smart to be prepared.”

“Oh, I do,” Kanan assured her, pulling open the panel and shining his light on it. “I just don’t expect everyone else to be. I should have known better when it comes to you, though.”

“You should have,” Hera agreed. “Do you actually know what you’re doing over there?”

“More or less, yeah.”

“That’s reassuring,” Hera quipped. “Move over, I’ll take a look.”

“All yours.” Kanan shifted to the side, keeping the light on the interior of the panel as Hera slid into the gap, inches away from him as she studied the controls. Inches that Kanan found himself suddenly all too aware of.

~~~

There was absolutely nothing to think about being inches away from Kanan Jarrus. It was simply a fact. There was nothing particularly unusual about it, about being able to sense him breathing, his arm brushing against hers every so often.

Focus, Syndulla, Hera told herself, studying the panel. The sooner the lights came back on, the better. That was all that was throwing her off balance, the darkness. Not Kanan, or the fact that he actually turned out to be kind and friendly and made stupid jokes at his own expense.

And now he was talking again, and Hera pulled her attention back to him.

“So, you’re in the military,” he said. “And a mechanical engineer? Are you secretly a superhero in your spare time? Dance fighter, maybe?”

Hera couldn’t hold back a laugh. “No—and I’m not on active duty,” she said. “I’m currently working at a local mechanic shop for the time being, but…I’ve got my eye on something else. We’ll see how it works out.”

“Busy as ever,” Kanan said, and she could all but hear his grin. “Maybe it’s a public school overachiever thing.”

Scoffing, Hera said, “I like to think it’s uniquely me. Why did you ever join public school if you have such disdain for it?”

“I don’t have disdain for it,” Kanan corrected her. “I just think that there are some big issues with—you know what, I’m not going into this rant right now. Anyways, it wasn’t really my choice to go to public school.”

“I think I’ve got it,” Hera said, reaching up and flipping a few switches. “Why did you have to go, then?”

He went quiet, and Hera wondered what she’d said, if he’d even heard her. Then the lights finally burst to life, and she could see his face. Serious and…sad, holding an old grief that Hera instantly recognized.

“My mom died,” he said. “And my stepdad had a full time job, and my grandpa was working as a sergeant in the LCPD back then, so…there was no one else to teach me. So into public school I went.”

Hera stared at him, shock slicing at the inside of her chest. “What—how did I never know about this?”

Shrugging, Kanan switched off his phone flashlight, pocketing it. “We weren’t exactly close back then—and I didn’t really know what to expect in public school. That first year, I…didn’t really tell anyone. Believe it or not, Severide was the first person I told.”

“What did he say?” Hera asked, finding herself dazed in the wake of his words. All this time… Looking back, she remembered him bringing his stepfather or grandfather to school events, but never his mother. And the day she’d found out that her mother was dying…he was there. This is why.

Kanan’s smile was bright, but still sad. “Offered to buy me a beer. We were seventeen at the time, as I recall.”

Hera snorted. “Sounds about right.” She paused, rallying the words she wanted to say. “I’m so sorry. That I didn’t know, and that—that I was so awful to you back then.”

Kanan laughed, and it was a real laugh. “I mean…a little, yeah. But I was awful, too. Such is the way of being a teenager sometimes. And having an archnemesis really helped take my mind off everything. So seriously, don’t worry about it. I’ll just be happy if we can be friends now.”

Friends with Kanan Jarrus. Somehow, it…didn’t sound terrible. Hera of an hour ago would scarcely have believed it, and yet? “Friends it is,” Hera agreed.

“Good,” Kanan said.

They closed up the breaker box and headed out of the room and back into the hallway. Even from a distance, Hera could hear relieved voices and the sound of music starting up. “Looks like everything’s up and running again,” she observed. “We should probably get back to the others.”

“Yeah,” Kanan said, and Hera knew the tone in his voice. She’d heard it a hundred times in high school, when he’d been about to pull some insane stunt, when he was about to figure out some way around the rules in the classroom. It was a tone that tended to herald mischief and ignoring the rules.

Spinning around, she squinted at him suspiciously. “What?”

“Nothing,” Kanan said, holding up his hands in surrender. “Just—honestly I don’t really want to go back to the party. Severide’s been driving me crazy, and I’m just…” he trailed off, and Hera saw the smallest flicker of the sadness from earlier cross his face in a heartbeat. “Not in the mood for it all,” he finished.

“Fair enough,” Hera said. “Do you have any better plans?”

Kanan’s startled gaze flicked up and met hers. “Are you saying you’re in?”

“Are you saying you have a plan?” Hera countered.

The corner of his mouth tipped upward. “I’m saying I have a mechanical engineer with a tool kit, and…” he trailed off, pointing at a nearby door.

Hera glanced at it, reading the sign on it. Roof access: employees only. “You’re crazy.”

“Maybe a little,” Kanan said, his grin widening. “Well?”

Kriff. How was it that over the course of an hour or so, the idea of hanging out on a roof with Kanan Jarrus had somehow become appealing? But…she wanted to spend more time with him. Ask him more questions, see him smile more.

She’d definitely lost her mind. “Let’s do it.”

~~~

The roof of the building wasn’t too far off of the ground, which did cut down on the appeal a little. But when Kanan finally got the door open, a fresh breeze cut across his face and it was worth it.

(somehow, having to admit what had happened to his mother had locked iron bands around his chest, and Kanan couldn’t bring himself to go back to laughing and joking with the others. He needed to breathe, to be away from everyone else.

Well. Almost everyone else.)

Crossing her arms, Hera shivered a little as she stepped out onto the rooftop behind him. It was already getting dark, the last of the sunlight bleeding away behind the horizon. “Remind me why I went along with this plan?”

“Well, you never went along with any of my plans in high school,” Kanan pointed out. “Consider this an opportunity to make up for all that.”

“I still think most of those plans were nuts,” Hera said, pulling her arms tighter to herself as another breeze whisked past them.

Snapping his fingers, Kanan said, “I knew I should have worn that suit coat after all. Could have done the chivalrous thing and given you my jacket.”

“And I knew I should have worn the jacket I actually brought with me,” Hera quipped. “And yet it’s sitting safely inside where I don’t need it.”

“We all have regrets,” Kanan said, and Hera rolled her eyes at him. “Come on—I bet we can get out of the wind over there.”

The roof was crisscrossed with big silver vent shafts, and they headed to the far side of one, settling on the roof behind it to shelter themselves from the wind. Letting his head drop back against one, Kanan squinted up at the sky. “Shouldn’t be too long before the stars come out.”

Hera dropped down next to him. “Why in the name of the Force did I think it was a good idea to wear this dress?”

Kanan couldn’t quite resist a glance toward her— skirts tucked around her legs, one of her lekku resting on her bare shoulder. How could she look so perfectly at ease, yet stunning at the same time? “You look amazing.” The compliment slipped out before he could think better of it, and he didn’t really want to.

She flicked a glance at him, and Kanan’s heart skipped a beat. Then she rolled her eyes. “It’s too cold for me to deal with you making fun of me.”

She wasn’t wrong about the cold—it was early autumn, but there was already a nip in the air that promised frost on the way. Even in long sleeves, Kanan was cold. But it was worth it, in his mind.

“Just think,” he mused. “Ten years ago around this time of year, we were probably already a month or so into school. Determined to destroy each other at all cost. Those were the days.”

Letting out a snort of amusement, Hera shifted a little closer to him. When Kanan glanced at her, she scowled at him. “You’re warm, and it’s freezing out. Don’t judge me.”

“Yes, ma’am,” Kanan said, holding back a laugh. “You’re yelling at me—now it really feels like high school.”

Hera scoffed. “Oh, we never would have hung out like this back then. Not without me trying to toss you over the edge of the building.”

It’s true, Kanan thought. They never would have sat like they did now, arms brushing, Hera’s fingers nearly touching his. Suddenly, he didn’t miss high school at all.

“So,” Hera said. “I don’t think I ever heard why exactly you just disappeared from our college.”

“And you must have missed me so much,” Kanan teased, and Hera rolled her eyes. Turning serious, Kanan explained, “I got into a really good fire academy I’d applied to across the country. It was leave for the training sessions then or wait for the next class, so I went. Finished my degree online, got certified as an EMT when I was done with that.”

“You’re an EMT, too?” Hera said, raising an eyebrow.

“Not professionally, I’m just certified.”

Shaking her head, Hera said, “Between the two of us, we might have enough random skills to fix the world.”

“Nice,” Kanan said. “Now we just need a friend willing to take over and put us in charge.”

Hera laughed. “Brilliant plan. Oh—look, the first star!”

For a moment, they fell silent, watching the stars slowly flicker to life in the darkening sky. Kanan felt Hera shiver next to him, and, after a moment of indecision, lifted his arm and slipped it around her shoulders.

He felt her stiffen a little, and paused. “Is this okay? I just thought—”

“It’s fine,” Hera assured him, settling a little closer to him. Kanan felt his heart skip a beat, then start pounding harder than ever as her head settled right next to his shoulder. “I grew up where 60 degrees was cold, and I’ve never really been able to shake that,” she told him, letting out a sigh. “Not exactly convenient.”

“I can imagine,” Kanan said, unable to tear his eyes away from her. Even in the dim light, he could see the patterns on her lekku, could smell her soap. “Hey,” he said. “Remember like an hour ago when you hated me?”

He felt the warm chuckle Hera let out before he heard it. “Yeah, well, you’re warm and this rooftop isn’t. So don’t read too much into it.”

“I wouldn't dream of it. You want to go back inside?”

“Not yet.”

The sky grew darker, and the stars multiplied. Staring up at them, Kanan said, “Remind me, you had an astronomy phase, right?”

“You could say that,” Hera agreed. “Why?”

“Just wondering if you remembered any of the constellations. My mom taught me a lot of them,” he told her, wondering why even as he spoke. As a rule, Kanan talked about Depa to exactly three people—Mace, Gray, and his therapist. But here he was, reliving memories with a woman who’d hated him for years. A woman who he found it all too easy to talk to. “We borrowed a telescope from a family friend once, and looked at all of them, at the moon. I dropped it when we were bringing it inside, and broke the lens. But Mom—” Kanan stopped, feeling his throat tighten. “She said it was fine. Told the friend she broke it, so I wouldn’t feel bad. She always had my back, even if she made me help pay for it.”

Letting out a shaky laugh, he pressed his eyes closed against the blurring stars. “Sorry. I don’t know why—you’re easy to talk to, I guess.”

Hera didn’t say anything for a moment. “I get it,” she said quietly. “It sneaks up on you. My mom’s been gone since college, but I—I still miss her. I still want to tell her everything. I’m not really as close to the rest of my family—my brother’s been in Europe for a long time now, and my father is…difficult to get along with. I miss having someone I can tell anything to without worrying I’ll be belittled or made fun of.”

“Anyone who belittles you is out of their mind,” Kanan said heartfeltly. “You can and always have done everything you set your mind to. Except beat me in that math final.”

“Don’t make me rethink being friends with you,” Hera warned him.

“Oh, we’re friends now?”

“Not if you keep pushing it.”

“Understood.”

They fell silent again, watching the stars for a while. “Thanks for listening,” Kanan finally said. “I don’t…really talk about my mom with people that often. Most of my coworkers and friends didn’t know her, and I’m not sure if that makes it better or worse. I don’t think I’ve even told my grandfather that story.”

“Your secret’s safe with me,” Hera told him, and Kanan smiled.

“Thanks, Hera.”

“Anytime,” she said, and there was something in her voice that Kanan didn’t quite understand. 

Glancing at her, he squinted, trying to read the emotion on her face in the darkness. “You okay?”

“Fine,” Hera said. “Just—oh, kriff, I cannot believe I’m telling you this.”

“Telling me what?” Kanan asked slowly.

Her grimace was obvious even in the shadows as she squared her shoulders. “I’m thinking about applying for a job at NASA.”

Kanan’s eyebrows shot upward. “NASA?”

“Yeah,” Hera said. “I originally applied to be an aerospace engineer, but I…okay this is stupid. But when I was a kid, I wanted to be an astronaut and it still sounds like it would be an incredible career, and if you’re going to laugh at me just get it over with—”

“I’m not laughing,” Kanan told her immediately. “You’re talking to the guy who grew up to become a firefighter, remember? Being an astronaut sounds incredible, and you’d be amazing at it.”

Hera sent him a skeptical sideways glance. “You just saw me again for the first time in eight years, and you already know that?”

“You’ve always been good at whatever you set your mind to,” Kanan told her, hoping his sincerity came forth in his words. “Even back in high school. Except, of course—”

“Do not bring up the math test.”

“Shutting up now.”

Hera laughed, and was silent for a moment. “I haven’t told anyone about this,” she told him. “Not even my roommate, Omega. I don’t know why I told you.”

“I’m glad you did,” Kanan told her, and caught the flash of white that was her smile.

They stayed like that for a while longer, watching the stars and just…talking. Catching up on pieces of the past eight years, and slowly getting to know each other as friends. Not enemies, not teenagers bent on destroying the other.

Just friends. Mostly. Because when they got up to go inside, driven in by freezing cold wind and a dozen increasingly dramatic texts from Severide, Kanan offered Hera his hand, helping her to her feet. And when she took it, she didn’t let it go until they finally reached the door and stepped inside.

~~~

Usually, Hera hated it when she was wrong. Generally it was for work stuff, and she had to redo something she’d been working on for days now.

But right now, heading into the parking lot with her hands tucked into the pockets of her jacket, she was more than happy to be wrong.

It turned out Kanan wasn’t an insufferable jerk. Not any more, at least. He was…a friend. Who’d encouraged her, teased her, and maybe made her blush a little bit when he told her she looked nice.

If younger me could see me now, Hera thought wryly. She was okay with that, though. After all, what was growing up but readjusting your perspective time after time? Now Kanan was in her life again, even as a friend, and—

Wait.

He was in her life. But how exactly were things supposed to stay that way? She knew he worked at the same firehouse as Matt, Gabby, and Severide, but not how to contact him. She certainly didn’t have his phone number, and it was shocking to admit that she wanted it. And a little embarrassing.

But sometimes you had to be a little embarrassed for a good cause.

Turning, Hera stared across the parking lot. The gathering had broken up not long after they came in, and she’d lost Kanan in the crowd. If she remembered right, he’d come with Severide. You’d think I could spot one ridiculously tall firefighter in a crowd…

But there was no sign of him, and Hera pushed back an unreasonable pang. She could always reach out to Gabby or one of the others if necessary. It certainly wouldn’t be eight years again, not if she could help it.

Pretending she wasn’t still looking for any sign of him, she turned and headed toward her car.

She’d made it to her car, and was digging for her car keys when she heard a shout behind her. Instinctively, Hera spun toward it, her hand slipping into her purse—and then someone crashed into her.

She stumbled, nearly toppling backward, but a strong arm around her waist caught her, pulling her upright and face to face with Kanan. “Sorry,” he said, breathing hard. “Thought I was gonna miss you.”

“So the solution was to barrel into me at top speed?” Hera asked, lifting an eyebrow and pretending like a smile wasn’t struggling its way to the surface.

Kanan must have been able to tell, though, because he grinned back. “It worked, didn’t it?” He seemed to realize he was still holding her, and let go, stepping back a little. “Look, last time we went our separate ways, we didn’t talk for eight years. I don’t know about you, but—”

“I don’t want that, either,” Hera told him, and a brilliant smile spread across Kanan’s face.

“Good. Then, uh, can I ask for your number?”

“After all that, I think it would be heartless to say no,” Hera said dryly, digging inside her purse. Producing her wallet, she pulled out one of the business cards from the mechanic shop she worked at, and a pen, and scribbled down her number. Presenting it to him, she said, “Try and use it wisely.”

“I wouldn’t dream of doing otherwise,” Kanan said gravely, accepting the card. The smile he wore and the way he studied the card undercut the tone somewhat, and Hera couldn’t hold back a chuckle.

“It was good to see you again,” she told him, and meant it.

“It was good to see you, too,” Kanan said, and smiled at her in a way that made her heart flutter. You really are crazy, Syndulla. First astronaut school, now this.

But who knows? She thought as he strolled away, a spring in his step. Stranger things have happened.

Brief taz gn review, spoilers afoot!

Djfhskfjdkgjf I'm so emotional over all of it. Ofc they cut some things, but I think one of the things that bummed me out most was taako not having to lose his beauty. Like that was Such a big deal to the fandom, imo it added so much depth to taako's character (surface level: haha yeah he's a vain elf ofc that's a terrible thing for him/ deeper level: now he won't match his twin that he doesn't realize he have;;;;;;) but eh I get it wasn't fully impactful to the overall plot so I get it I guess. Still bummed.

Another thing that irked me for a beyond stupid reason but why did they use the higher E for the first E in egg babe. In the music (specifically Voidfish(plural)) it's the lower E. Both Es are the same. Why the high E. That just sounds weird. Idk. That bugged me for the dumbest reason.

Still not the biggest fan of Edward/Lydia's designs but eh I'll let it slide.

Literally everything else was so wonderful tho aaaaaaaaaa

The whole slicer of t'peir weir isles bit was AMAZING. Everything I could've wanted. Bless lmao.

The bad luck. Chefs kiss. Mwah. The angst goblin in me was so satisfied in how it was portrayed lmao. It always bugged me in the podcast how they kinda joked and forgot the major damage taako took (granted I get it's more of a comedy podcast so fine I get it), but like it's hard to hide/brush past that in a visual aspect and idk I appreciated it lol.

Also when taako Blinked and the hunger's eyes everywhere watching them. Mwah. And no healing in wonderland!! Aaagh I just rly love how the emotional aspect of these moments were portrayed. Wonderland's fricked up yo.

I forgot about Barry using thieves cant to talk w magnus, that was so excellent. And Dupree!!!!! Bless Dupree. <3

Gosh the arms outstretched scene was so so good. I was listening to the soundtrack song and just. Chills. And Kravitz!!!!! My boy!!!!! Taako having to make a choice and trying to go for both but watching Krav get sucked back in..... weh that was rough. Emotionally wonderful lmao.

Oh!!!!! That moment when griffin basically disappeared from them??? I loved that omg. Such an ohsh- meta way of showing how frickt up things are getting. The gm can't save you now. (Also I was curious if that was referencing how they switched from dnd for stolen century and griffin wasn't the same gm in the same sense. Huh)

Barry Bluejeans my beloved <3 gosh all the the flashbacks were incredible. I'm so hecking hyped for stolen century. Ahh!!

Also every time Lup taakos umbrella jumped to Barry that was so cute <3

LUP!!!!!!! Filling her in all of taako's staticked memories, we still don't get a clear look of her face until the final portrait reveal, but lup!!!! Her!!!!! I'm emotional!!!! And so is taako lmao!!!! Just. That single panel of her blowing up the fantasy dmv on her best day ever. I want that framed on my wall it's so beautiful.

Just. Gosh. It's all coming together. Everybody getting inoculated(x2) and getting memories back, davenport!!!!! Boy howdy lest ppl forget his sin was wrath in that one year. His face when he said "what have you done?" Chills absolute chills.

Just. Baawww the whole thing was amazing. It's all coming together!!! The adventure concludes(!!) in Story and Song!!!! AaaaaaaaAa

I'm emotional. So good. 10/10. Aaaaaa

[amazingmsme]

your lib hcs were so good omg, do you have any for them as lees? i so need wiggly to be absolutely WRECKED, he’s so cocky and self important all the time, he needs to be taken down a peg fr. plus the fact that he made tickling his whole thing is so perfect for teasing.. “if you don’t enjoy this, why did you make it a part of your brand? it’s like you were thinking about it, like you wanted it!”

OKAY U GAVE US LER!THE LORDS IN BLACK HCS.

…we need the lee! Hcs now 👁👁 /j/nf

Do you have any lee headcanons for the Lords in Black?

Back by popular demand, it’s the lords lees in black! You’ve heard of tickle monsters, now get ready for tickled monsters! Again, this got p long so gonna put it under the cut

All the libs blush their respective colors

Based off the doll designs, all of their tummies are fuzzy & a different color than the rest of their fur, so they’re all pretty ticklish there, some more than others 😉

Pokey

He’s one of the more fun & “chill” lords, so it’s not much of a surprise that he just kinda rolls over & lets his bros wreck his shit

He thinks it’s fun & enjoys the feeling itself as well as the feeling of laughing freely

He has deep, rich laugh that sounds like pure joy itself. If you get him really laughing it can legit shake the room

Because the hivemind is tuned in to him, they know exactly when he’s in a lee mood. They coordinate their attack & take turns tickling him & he lets it happen because he promised them happiness & world peace & if this is what they wanna do he won’t stop them!

His most ticklish spots are his neck & belly because those muscles are most associated with singing (vocal cords & diaphragm) & ribs since they cage the lungs. Oh, & ears. I may be tickle trash, but I try to have some kind of reasoning behind why I headcanon characters as being ticklish certain places

I think Tinky & Wiggly are the ones who tickle him the most because they both have bully energy

Blinky

Funny how they just love watching other people get their shit wrecked but when it’s HIS turn he’s covering his face out of embarrassment

Arguably the most flustered, but Wiggly gives him a run for his money, he’s just more angy about it

Absolutely no idea why, but I’m getting ticklish hands vibes. Probably the long sleeves over the hands

Watcher with a thousand eyes=eyes in the back of his head=ticklish scalp? 👀👀👀

Has a really cute high pitched giggle that’s very bubbly

The shiny leggings & boots draw a lot of attention to the lower body, & it makes me think his worst spots are his hips, knees & feet. & the baggy hoodie makes me feel like his armpits are also up there

Tinky

This unhinged goatman constantly has to be put in his place by his brothers & tickling is the best (& easiest) way to do so

He absolutely provokes them to wreck his shit because he thinks it’s so much fun & he loves to laugh & be silly & make. & he always feels so proud of himself to dragging the rest of them down to “his level” but then they immediately make him regret it… then he does it again an hour later

Very open about how much he loves it, but still gets embarrassed when his brothers tease him about it

He has hooves instead of feet, & if you were to try to buff them up or polish them he’d be such a giggly snorting mess

He has a shrill, hysterical cackle like how he laughs in The Summoning

He has a lil goat tail & if you scratch at the small of his back he arches away with the loudest screech you’ve ever heard

His most ticklish spots are his ears/neck, thighs & knees, & hooves if you use a rough enough touch

His ears are super soft & velvety & if you rub them between your fingers he can’t stop snorting between giggles

Tickling makes him so hyper & excited & his bros have to work extra hard to tide him out

Nibbly

Besides Tinky, he is the happiest & most playful of the lib & always has that classic wide grin plastered on his face. & he has a bright, joyous laugh to match!

Because he has such a big mouth, his laugh is really loud & bombastic. He also has a really cute giggle that’s sweet as honey

Gets really flustered if you use his own techniques & teases against him

Can’t stand tickle bites or raspberries despite how much he loves to dish them out

The fluffy arm sleeves really got me thinking about how it probably tickles him on accident when he moves, especially around his armpits

Even when he’s not tickled, he’s just very giggly

Since his whole thing is eating, his tummy is one of his worst spots. Also his thighs, sides & armpits

Wiggly

What you’ve all been waiting for tbh, am I right?

Biggest fucking lee out of all the lib but is in such hard denial mode. The Tickle Me Wiggly doll was the first step to acceptance & he keeps trying to make excuses for why he chose the name

Like it absolutely could’ve been just a Wiggly doll, no tickling required but he made his choice & stuck with it

Keeps insisting he had to make something unassuming & innocent & all his bros are just like mmmmhmmmm 😏

He’s sooo easy to fluster but be careful, he gets mad when he’s embarrassed. Not his usual scary levels of anger but def pissy

Even tho he loves it he will always try to run away. Gotta keep up appearances

His laugh is shrill & borders on cackling. Sometimes it’s giggly & bouncy & broken up by hiccups like in the middle of Made in America

A very jittery & nervous lee. He laughs in anticipation & curls in on himself & tries to talk himself out of the situation he absolutely put himself in

All of the lords wreck his shit on a regular basis because it’s the only way they can knock him down a peg

Most ticklish spots are of course his belly well, ribs, feet & knees, but he’s basically a walking tickle spot

Hands down the most ticklish out of all the lords in black

Swears up a storm & when tickled. Also some pretty severe sounding threats that he’d never actually carry out

[spookybokchoy]

I got inspired from other ppl doing redesigns of Hazbin characters and wanted to give a go at it. I don't watch the show but I know info about it from the internet because it's kinda hard to avoid it with it being everywhere. Like most ppl I like the fun idea of their designs but there is much left desired when taking account animation and how they stand out from one another in the background. I focused on character design in college so I'm looking at it through a designer's pov. I feel I know enough about the show to give design feedback. Even so you can still disagree with me/challenge me and be valid. Critique is how we grow as artists! We need to know how to give good criticism and how to take it ourselves :) I'll say the strengths and weaknesses of each original design and go over the changes/why

Charlie- Her original design in the show's cute but I thought she was a clown, not a demon at first. Already has a "demon form" with horns+ tail so I added those built in already. Wanted her to feel optimistic but unsure of herself. Lucifer- Original suit tells he's an over the top king, added gold shoulder pads matching the crown piece and exaggerated his shortness so now he has a Napoleon complex and takes pride from being short. Him and Charlie keep the mostly red yellow white color scheme to signify their royalty. Vaggie Vega- Unique hair shape, good for recognition. Changed name to Vega/Vegatha, sounds strong willed, better fitting for her. "X" over hair distracts from her face, put it underneath. I also made her a bit darker in value to subtly show she's a fallen angel Husker- Eyebrow game is strong, got a unique face from your typical toothy big-eyed citizens. Too many symbols that look pretty but don't make sense in his character. He's a sulky hard ass who doesn't want attention but he's got a design that's very eye-catching. I made him look lower class since he used to be an overlord and is fighting a gambling addiction. 180 color change too so you know he's a cat with owl features.

Angel Dust- Iconic floofy hair swoop. Darker suit to bring out face with a heart choker bc he's a feminine fellow after all. On that note, more pink leaning color scheme. Added abdomen for more spider theming. Dr. Pentious- His Victorian steam punk theme is fun & quirky though you can't quite see it in his design. You can't really see it in my design either cuz I was more focused on filtering out all the eyes and extra details. I would want to take this back to the board and do it over. His original top hat face distracts from his actual one so that had to go. 2 front fangs to appear more snakey. Alastor- His design works for the 1930s the decade he passed. I don't get the correlation to radio and voodoo though. The whole discourse with him being creole is messy so I scrapped it and made him a white American broadcaster to not deal with that. I made him blind with supernatural hearing abilities leaning into the sound aspect. It feels chilling knowing he hears your every move, emotion and heartbeat like the warden from Minecraft. Deer and orange fox themed for a dual nature. Vox- This idea of a tech savvy con man is super fun. Made his persona charming and eccentric, being able to appear friendly while being sketchy as f. His body is made of wires too with his teeth resembling the shock waves on his hat. Kept the pinstripes for a wirey feel.

I also did some Helluva Boss redesigns too! I think Helluva designs deliver pretty well (besides Queen Bee) so I more or so redesigned them based off my own head cannons. I used to watch the show but fell off around halfway of S2 bc I wasn't vibing with the direction of the story. Octavia- Young entrepreneur, takes after her father and mother being snobby and looks down at lower classes who she sees as less intelligent than high class. Very creative in problem solving. Millie- I like her og clothes alot. Those overalls are chic. This outfit is what she'd wear out in the field when she's working for IMP or at the farm. She and Loona fight alot about who works harder and Loona having an attitude problem towards everyone. Sallie Mae- Not much change other than white hair and removed eyelashes. I might want to make her shirt dark muted blue instead. I gave her a backstory how she ran away from toxic masculinity parents and eventually gets hired at IMP as a spy.

Loona- Emo to the extremo. She's originally goth but I got emo from her I'm sorry she just doesn't look goth. She's very lax when it comes to her job and slacks off constantly. She still does it well despite not working as hard as Millie, Moxxie or Blitz. She's strict but means well and cares for ppl around her. She also gets adopted at age 14 in my head cannon.

Bee- 180 change completely. She's a thick queen! Made her black coded with more stripes cuz she's a BEE. I don't get why Vivienne didn't give her stripes bc that's a design thing she uses so much and she doesn't use it in a character whose name is BEE? What??? anyway her design is still complex but simplified and uncluttered for animation so the animators can have pleasant dreams. She's the child of Beelzebub and a hell hound. So that's my take on Hazbin/Helluva character design! This was fun re imagining not only the characters but the story itself. I may write a fan fiction but i dunno right now. I respect the original source material which is something I feel everyone needs to acknowledge when they do a redesign of anything. There are things I don't like about the original and that's ok! That's part of why I did the redesigns. That being said I don’t support Vivziepop :)

Dialogue Prompts

Alright, you guys. Here is part 6 of the prompts! No specific category for this one, though, but it is kinda long. So, enjoy! :)

"Let me do it this time." "Absolutely not." "You got to do the illegal stuff last time, why can't I do it this time?!"

"Shit. I got shot." "Good thing my dress matches my blood. It can blend in easier."

"There's a pair of tweezers in the bag there."

"I'm going to call it now."

"What's wrong with my outfit?"

"I'm sorry, I thought the whole point of being here was to not draw attention to ourselves?!"

"I haven't told them about the transfer yet..."

"Don't be rude. We'd love to come over."

"Well, whatever you do, don't rule that option out completely."

"I didn't know you could pull off moves like that."

"Um, that's the point. Gotta blend in."

"Yea, for my sake, don't tell anyone."

"I'm pissed okay?! That was a totally bust job, we got nothing accomplished!"

"Is that what you think of me?"

"Good! We never wanted you on our team anyway! You've been slowing us down, since day freaking one!"

"Guys, can we not fight?"

"Fine, then. Give me the keys." "I still think we should talk about this more-" "Keys. NOW!"

"Great. Now you've pissed her off!"

"I'm sorry, alright. You were right. I was out of line."

"You have my permission. Sign then."

"I thought this was what you wanted?"

"Take a deep breath. On the count of three."

"The stitches came out."

"Oh, come on. Don't be like that." "Don't be like what?" "You know what I mean." "Well, clearly, I don't."

"Since when did you know how to do this?"

"Do you really want to cause a scene right now?" "Yes, I want to cause a scene right now! How about this, you are so stubborn and so annoying!"

"You are both under arrest."

"She does have a point." "Who's side are you on?"

"Let. Go. Of. Me."

"No, I don't want to hear it. We told you this would happen didn't we? And you, didn't listen!"

"Yea, can we not go to prison? That would be great."

"Tell him I said hi."

"I don't like this anymore than you do."

"We have no other choice."

"So, who's fault is that? Because I'm not cleaning this mess up."

"You said this about her? No wonder she wants to transfer."

"I don't think this is a good idea."

"They'd look so cute together.... We should set them up."

"You really think that he kept the letters after all this time?"

"Long time no see!"

"Can you watch him for a second? I'll be back."

"I'm honestly surprised that you didn't know that fact."

"Noice. Let's go." *fist bump*

"We should wear a type of disguise. So, we don't get caught."

"Turn it around... be careful."

"We're so close, I can feel it."

"So, the best option is to split up. You. You're coming with me."

"Yes, that would be a big problem if that happened."

"They've found the car."

"My drill broke!"

"Take the frame, we're going to have to take it apart in the elevator."

"You're not the only one."

"I hate him with every fiber of my being."

"This is between the three of us. Nobody needs to get hurt here."

"I don't think you understand the situation here. I'm holding all the cards and yet, you're trying to negotiate with me."

"You can have all the treasure, just let us go!"

"Mmm... I don't think I will. See, you have another clue."

"I don't... I'm out."

"Let's give it some finishing touches."

"We have to go inside."

"I don't think that we have to go somewhere else, I think it's still here."

"But where?"

"Give a little warning next time, before you do that."

"All tunnels have to end, eventually."

"I'm sorry I snapped at you."

"What's happening here? You gave them a fake clue." "We had to buy ourselves sometime."

"It's not what I thought it would be."

"Please, don't break. Please don't break!"

"Um... because you're the bad guy?"

"I've found door number three.... And I'm gonna take it."

"I'm not doing anything else for you unless you answer my questions."

"But it gives me more time to spend with you!"

"Did you guys not read my book?" "I have! I've read it! More than twice!" *whispers* "I think I'm your biggest fan, babe." "Not gonna lie, you definitely are."

"I'm going to run this red light!"

"Watch the people!" "I don't think we're supposed to be going down this way."

"He's right behind me! Where else do you want me to go?!"

"They're right on their way, right now, and I'd guarantee they'd love to meet you too."

"That was hot." "Aw, thanks, babe."

"Fine. But your henchmen stay behind. It's just you." "What makes you think that I'm gonna agree to those terms?"

"Go! I'll meet you at the car." "How do they expect to meet us there?!"

"It's going to take forever to dig these rocks out of the way."

"DON'T LET GO OF MY HAND!"

"You demolished my family name for this?"

"Alright. That's it! I'm going to deck the living shit out of you!"

"It comes in a series."

"Didn't... didn't they get married?"

"I'll stay! I'll stay behind, look! I'm staying."

"So, you won't tell me the way out, unless I give you what you want?" "The way out is through that tunnel there." "Why are you doing this?"

"I can't help you, unless you find what you're looking for." "I won't let you down, sir."

"I'm telling you exactly what it says."

"Alright, you're the only one who knows. Indulge us. What's the next clue?" "You think I'm gonna give that up so easily?"

"Yes, thank you, for clearing that up."

"The wall closed behind us and trapped us in." *touching the wall* "There has to be a way out!"

"I'm in. If you are, that is."

"No hesitation, okay?" "Right. It'll run the whole plan."

"How exactly do you expect us to pull this off?"

"There's only one way now: forward."

Ghosts: About Last Night

So my sister has been watching this yet again and I kinda wrote a thing. Damn. Now I have a whole fic going on in my head.

Warnings: None that I can think of just Julian being a massive perv and drunken madness.

(Mara stumbles down the hallway drunk. She swigs whiskey from a bottle. Her shirt is hanging open exposing her lacy bra. She stumbles into one of the bedrooms and puts the whiskey on the side table. She then takes her shoes and leggings off before lying down on the bed. The Captain walks in and stops dead.).

Captain: Er excuse me. These aren’t your quarters.

Mara: Um. Evening officer.

Captain: I demand that you leave at once.

Mara: Um. You coming to bed?

Captain: Excuse me?

(She pulls her shirt open further exposing a black lacy bra which her large breasts are squashed into.).

Captain: No. No. I will not abide by this drunken debauchery. I suggest you get back to your own room.

Mara: Um.

(Her eyes have drifted closed and she remains lying where she is.).

Captain: Did you hear me? I said leave now. This is my room. You have your own room upstairs.

(She doesn’t move. The Captain sighs.).

Captain: Alison!

(He marches from the room and goes to Alison’s bedroom. She is curled up asleep next to Mike who is snoring loudly.).

Captain: Alison! Alison! Wake up now! There is an insurgent in my bedroom! You must get her out.

(Alison doesn’t wake up.).

Captain: Alison!

(The Captain sighs again and marches from the room. He returns to his room. Mara is still lying in his bed.).

Captain: Still here. Now this is really taking the biscuit. I have asked you to leave.

(He walks over to the side of the bed.).

Captain: Wake up!

(He starts to sing in her ear.).

Captain: I am the very definition of a model major general.

(Mara giggles.).

Mara: You’re cute.

Captain: I am not cute. I am a commanding officer and I have given you a direct order. Now get out!

Mara: Just come to bed handsome. It’s late.

Captain: I will not-

(Thomas walks in.).

Thomas: What’s all the shouting?

Captain: She won’t leave.

Thomas: Why is she in here?

Captain: I don’t know. But she is highly intoxicated and she has seen fit to rob me of my bed.

Thomas: Oh.

Captain: Get her out of here would you?

Thomas: How am I supposed to do that?

Captain: I don’t know.

Thomas: Mara? Mara?

Mara: Um?

(Her eyes open slightly.).

Thomas: You need to go back to your own bed.

Mara: I’m in bed. Are you sleeping here too?

Thomas: What? No. You need to go back to your own room now.

Mara: Um.

(Her eyes drift closed again. The Captain sighs in frustration. Pat walks in.).

Pat: There you are. Everything alright?

(He sees Mara lying there and frowns.).

Pat: What’s she doing in here?

Thomas: I don’t know.

Captain: She won’t leave.

Pat: Oh right. Mara this isn’t your room.

Captain: No it’s no good.

Pat: Well she’s very drunk mate. Why don’t you just go up to her room and sleep there tonight?

Captain: No. This is my room and I want to sleep here.

Pat: Well...

(Julian walks in.).

Julian: Hello. What’s going on in here then?

Captain: Oh yes that’s it. Just come on in all of you. It isn’t like I want to sleep or anything.

(Julian is eyeing Mara up. He moves around to the other side of the bed and peers down at her breasts.).

Julian: Look at those for size. Lovely pair she’s got.

Thomas: Contain yourself man! What is wrong with you?

Julian: Oh come on. Like you lot aren’t stood there gawping at her yourselves.

Pat: We weren’t actually.

Thomas: How dare you.

(Mara rolls over and the shirt lifts up revealing black lacy panties.).

Julian: Hello. Matching undies. Someone thought they were gonna get some.

(Julian chuckles. Thomas tuts.).

Thomas: I’m off to bed. I can no longer partake in this spectacle.

(Thomas leaves the room.).

Pat: Yes I should be going too. Come on Julian.

(Julian is reaching out trying to prod one of Mara’s breasts.).

Pat: Leave her alone. Come on.

Julian: Oh. Why can’t I have any fun with you?

Pat: She’s passed out drunk. It’s not right mate. Come on.

(Pat leaves the room. Julian looks at The Captain.).

Julian: You lucky sod. Wish she’d come and got into my bed.

(Julian chuckles again and leaves the room. The Captain shakes his head.).

Captain: Now I am not going to tell you again. Get out now. Go back to your own room.

(Mara fidgets and slides her arm across the bed.).

Mara: Hold me handsome.

Captain: This is ridiculous. One I can’t do that and two I really just want to go to bed. Now away with you. Come on. Enough of all this funny business.

Mara: Um.

(She doesn’t move and he sighs angrily before marching from the room. He goes downstairs and walks outside. He starts to walk across the grounds. He doesn’t get very far before he stops. He sighs and turns looking back at the house.).

Captain: Oh this is ridiculous.

(He walks back to the house and goes back up to his room. Mara is still lying there. He sighs and walks over to the other side of the bed. He lies down on his back next to her and closes his eyes. A few minutes later Mara moves and her arm goes right through him. He springs upright.).

Captain: Right that’s it.

(He gets up and leaves the room. He goes up to Mara’s attic bedroom. He sighs and looks around before lying down on the bed. He closes his eyes.).

Captain: Hm.

So yes this week we finally went to see the all new Garfield movie! and yes there of course was collectables that went with this one and you can see that here.

but as for Garfield I have been a fan of Garfield for most of my life. I didn't really read the strips in the paper but I use to read them is like collected book form I would get at the book fair as a kid. I watched the TV specials and the Garfield and Friends show Saturday mornings and I went to see the original "Garfield: The Movie" in like 2004 and I have it on DVD and I can also I can say that Garfield is a contributing factor in me wanting to be a cartoonist and eventually an animator.

So with this new movie I was very excited to see it and I can say I wasn't disappointed (even Garfield at the start says the movie won't disappoint and he was right lol) I felt it was cute, sweet, a bit silly at times, funny and a bit actiony too.

Now as for the story it is a bit of an origin story in a way where like in the trailer you see how he meets Jon and how they move into her house and get Odie and all that and it kinda explains the whole idea of the basic story of Garfield complete with a "I hate Mondays" montage which is pretty funny. It goes on to show their home life and Garfield growing from a kitten to the familiar fat cat. there are some funny references in there too. So as Garfield and his family settle into their perfect life it gets turned upside down when Garfield's father Vic (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson) appears and pretty much takes Garfield and Odie 2 in door pets on a wild outdoor adventure that is pretty much a comedic heist movie.

Now I thought the movie was great like I said it was very cute and sweet and funny. There is plenty of humor both through physical stuff and plenty of gags and references and I thought it was very cleverly written and you have to pay attention at times when the camera is on Garfield Odie will be in the background doing something strange or funny like the railroad sign gimmick made me laugh. Also it can be random funniness also like when they were getting on the train and the gag with the used catapult dealer gave me a laugh too.

Now as for the voice acting I thought it was good from everybody and I know some complained about Chris Pratt as Garfield. Now I can kinda see that its not like the Mario movie where I felt it wasn't noticeable but in this it is you can tell that it is him and you recognize the voice right away. I didn't feel that at times it wasn't overly noticeable but for the most part I think I know why they cast him because he has that somewhat personality/persona that fits the character of Garfield. but all I can say is he did just as good of a job as Bill Murray did in 2004 The one thing though is I'm not sure about Nicholas Hoult as Jon? I do like Nicholas Hoult I think he's awesome in everything I seen him in but him as the voice of Jon didn't really click with me? I mean that is pretty much the only complaint I have.

but yeah in the end the animation was amazing it was perfect for this and I feel that this was the best way to go for a Garfield movie because it looks like the comics. and I feel that is the Garfield movie you would expect to get and done in a way that matches what you know about the characters this is how it should be.

So yeah if you love or loved Garfield then I would highly recommend this one.

Vice Versa Rewatch ep 5

Ok now that I got my apology off my chest, I’m ready to get back into this! I’m still here, fam! 💪🏽 and I’ve decided to just vibe. No thoughts, head empty, only feelings 😌

Gosh, it hasn’t even been that long but I’ve missed seeing Sea on my screen 😭 I still get to see Jimmy, but not Sea! I can’t wait for the LOL concert!

Episode 5 is called Winter White, which is associated with purity, perfection, honesty, cleanliness, and beginnings. Here I think it represents new beginnings more than the other definitions. And no, I don’t think it has to do with Talay being cold towards Puen, that’s not what’s happening here 🙅🏽‍♀️

Same, Talay. Same! *swoon* 😍🥰

I love Talay’s “shiiiiaa”s hehe it’s cute every time he says it! 🤭

Is it called meta if they’re basically writing their own love story in the show? Is that what we call meta? Lol

See Talay, it’s these little moments where you just say such real emotional things like it’s no big deal that Puen feels the full weight of them and falls for you even more!! And look at Jimmy’s expression!! This is why I fell in love with this show in the first place!! The looks of love!! 🥹❤️

Oh wow I did NOT remember that Talay was older than Puen! 😮 not by much, but still.

OMG NAMTAN!!!! Back when I watched this I had no idea who anyone was, but now I know!! Gosh everyone looks so young here, it’s crazy how time flies! And omg a Gun Atthaphan cameo too! Crazy!

Oh here it is!! Talay’s biggest fear!! He immediately thinks that Pang could be Puen’s portkey, and he brings up he and Puen leaving each other for the first time. At this point it’s still early into their relationship, and he’s feeling unsure and insecure and he doesn’t want to become attached if he’ll just end up being left behind.

But then Puen mouths these words at him! And it’s just what he needed to see! The reassurance that they can stay together!

Plus it’s kinda cute and silly how he runs away like that after! 🤭

I noticed Talay’s been wearing white all episode so I think he’s the one beginning to fall for Puen. We know Puen’s already come to the conclusion that he’s in love with Talay, but that first kiss has really started turning the wheels in Talay’s heart and mind.

And because Talay’s been wearing white, the color pairing was matched with Puen in black all episode! I see the colors!

Clearly it doesn’t snow in Thailand, cause that is not how you make a snowcone! 😅

This man presents another real fear for them. They might be trying to live their swapped person’s best life, but there’s no guarantee the effort will be returned. And that man was gone for 5 years! His whole life was ruined by the other guy! Puen and Talay could be stuck there for a long time, who knows what Tess and Tun could do by then!

It’s stuff like this that reminds you the premise of this show is actually pretty scary and sad. One second you’re laughing cause of the way they hold their fingers up to count, and the next you’re having an existential crisis 😥

They held hands throughout their first movie screening! 🥺 and Talay said no matter what happens they’ll go through it together! 😭

And then their movie tanks but they watch it together and comfort each other and Talay even plays along with Puen pretending the theater’s packed. And they thank each other for helping each other grow and be better! 🥲

Funny enough, the ending where they have their new beginning since they’re no longer screenwriters is when Talay is not wearing white anymore 🤔 maybe the disappointment has made him close himself off a little.

It felt good to be back to watching this! 😊 The school semester’s almost over so I can do these more often! And I’m gonna enjoy doing it too!

As always a thank you to @stormyoceans for the idea!!

Witch' Wand P8 The Stars

As soon as Jake was gone I went up and cuddled the clothes he gave me, I went to the door opened it and saw a corridor with various doors in the same style as I saw and a stairwell, I shut the door again and grabbed the wand pointing it at the door and watched the sparkles around the door and when I opened the door again beyond it was the entry room again so I grabbed my dress and scampered out shutting it behind me, 

"Jack has to be in one of these rooms... and I will find him. And Port victory, if I have to go through every door in this place." I nodded, 

And I admit... I'm kinda curious at all the people who are here, 

I left my dress somewhere I could remember and headed to the next door opening it and this room was a huge surprise, the room was littered with junk the walls even made of it, this metal door at the end with a keyhole, I opened the wardrobe seeing these clothes mad of patches and strange mixes of things, I didn't want to take off these clothes but I decided the best way to blend in is to change per door so I grabbed a patchwork dress and changed out of the boxers and shirt even if I gave the button down a squeeze before I set it down. I changed into the patchwork dress and took the wand unlocking the door and pushing it open.

The junk continued, the whole place looked like it was made of junk a table where none of the chairs matched, but what shocked me was this large round window across from me. I ran over and sat by the window as the stars looked so much closer, the dark sky seemed to go on forever, the curve of a dusty planet below, other little trashy blobs floating in the sky. 

"Ohh my god... the stars. They're beautiful." 

I jumped as I heard a loud alarm, I turned around and saw this metal door opening and in stepped a terrifying creature in ragged patchy clothes and a clear dome on its head.

"AAAAAHHHH!" I screamed, my body froze even if I wanted to run, 

The creature pulled the dome off revealing a familiar blonde head and a dirty face, "Hey wifey," He smiled kissing my cheek as he goes, pealing the suit off to reveal his similar tattered clothes, 

"Uhhh hi..." I smiled,

"You alright?"

"Yes, I uhh I just missed you,"

"Awww I know you miss me when I pop out, you're so sweet," He cooed giving my lips a little kiss as he wrapped his arms around my waist, 

I smiled and giggled resting my hands on his tattered patchwork shirt, and giving his suspenders a snap

"Hey! Don't snap me little wifey." he laughed, "Umm you're so cute today." he cooed giving my lips another kiss, 

But I jumped as another alarm started going off and he rolled his eyes, 

"Just a sec," He cooed kissing my forehead before he went and clicked some things on the way, "Hey Mum,"

"NIGEL!" A voice yelled, 

Huu... Nigel? he's cute, 

"Yes! It's a voice call you don't have to shout," He laughed,

"Have you sent that over for your grandfather?" she yelled, 

"Yes, I did it yesterday," He sighed, "That's all you wanted... cause I'm kinda busy right now," he smiled in my direction, 

"yes alright go on," She sighed and the call ended,

"so? what do you wanna do today wifey?" he cooed, "Now my work is done, we have all day to do whatever you like."

"Anything I like?"

"Anything wifey,"

"Could we go to the window?" 

"Why?" he laughed,

"I wanna see the stars,"

"Aaaawwwww you're so sweet," He cooed, as he took me to the window and we cuddled up looking out the window watching the various stars, 

"Would you tell me their names, Nigel?"

"Their names? you mean the stars?"

"Yeah,"

"Aww of course my sweet wifey, I'll tell you all the star names." he smiled holding me close and we cuddled up watching the stars together as he whispered the names to me holding my hand to help point at each one, often kissing my cheek and jaw as he showed me all the stars, "Humm would my little wifey like to.. touch the stars as she watches the stars?"

"Ohhh uhhh I uhh think so," I blushed, Damn all these boys are so horny, "I'd like that,"

"So would I my sweet," He cooed laying me down on the soft pillows by the window cradling my body close to his, I smiled and held him close as his hand began to creep up my body taking a soft grip of my breast through my dress.

"ohh Nigel," I giggled but didn't argue with him, 

"Umm every time I touch these I'm so happy I married you," he growled as he groped and fondled my breast squeezing and squishing it, one of his hands moved to my ass giving it a firm slap making me jump and giggle,

"Ohhhh Nigel!" 

"Aww you love it," he smirked as He gave my ass a few firm slaps before He smirked pushing up my dress to expose me, he smirked and pulled out his hard erection he quickly wrapped his legs around my waist slipping inside me, He groaned and moaned loudly as soon as he grabbed my hips and thrusted fast and hard. "Fuck! My adorable little wifey! you feel so good!"

I began to scream pulling his lips to my own and kissing him to try and keep me quite, once he got to a very steady pace he thrusted mercilessly both of us moaning and groaning until my body began to shake and I tightened my legs around him as I knew how close I was,

"Ohh yeah! Come on little wifey! you know I love how it feels when you cum!" he smirked with a sly smile getting faster and more merciless until I hit my orgasm screaming loudly as I got stars in my vision given this was the third time today, he kept going as long as possible, until he buried his head in my neck and his hips bucking like crazy as he buried himself inside me with a long groan before he pulled out, "Uhhh god I love you,"

"I uhh I love you too," I smiled, 

I mean he calls me wifey and I don't want to not say it back plus Nigel was so sweet, 

"You okay?"

"A little tried out is all."

"Awww okay come on I'll take my wifey to bed and let you get some rest," He smiled picking me up and carrying me to the cozy bed.

⋆.˚ 𝐏𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆. a.shin x reader .

⋆.˚ 𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐘. he laid his eyes on you the first time you stepped into the shop and you were a different kind of beauty .

⋆.˚ 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐓. ~0.7k .

⋆.˚ 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓. eesome — (adj.) pleasing to the eye. written to be fluff, kinda plantonic. f!reader. spoiler - free. safe for minors! crappy writing ( when was the last time I wrote? ).

　BEAUTIFUL. That was the only thought that crossed Asakura Shin's mind as soon as a beautiful girl set a foot into the store, Sakamoto's store, the self-proclaimed no. 1 safest shop in Japan. It was kinda true though with the legendary, ex-hitman Sakamoto Taro working here, assisted by Asakura Shin himself, it must be the safest shop. Well but come back to the main story.

His black eyes followed her figure, unfortunately not being able to get a glimpse of her face and yet he could already tell that she was a different kind of beauty. She wore an old-fashioned white dress, matching her big white hat made out of sinamay that covered her face while she gracefully carried herself in those cinderella high heels through the whole shop.

Shin would bet that she could probably afford other luxuries in those expensive, extravagant shops, so why was she here? Nonetheless he won't judge. After all, here is a pretty customer. As much as he wanted to ask for her number, he didn't dare to be near her, only waiting behind the counter while gripping his sweaty hands. God. He wants to read her mind, but he also didn't want to read her mind.

What if she thinks he's ugly? No, no. He will not hear those thoughts voluntarily.

"Excuse me?"

Not wasting a second, Shin immediately lifted his head and parted his lips to answer. "W— hi." yet he stuttered and greeted her with an easy going hi. Not once did Shin feel more embarrassing than right now. God. The heck? He shuts his eyes for a second to calm himself down before opening his eyes again. What was your expression? How much he would like to see your face.

"How can I help you?"

"Oh umm... I'm here to pay for my purchase, but I assume you spaced out." her voice was smooth.

But he didn't have much time to think about it as his gaze went down to the counter. Right. "S-Sorry..." he apologized, beet red because of the downright embarrassment, taking the scanner into his hands. The silence was loud. His mind was racing with multiple thoughts while he hoped to see her face, wishing that she would lift her head anytime soon before she leaves the shop.

God heard his prayers. The woman looked up the next moment, the shadow of her hat covered the upper part of her face. His black eyes met stoic, [e/c] ones. Wow. 'Beautiful.' it was his thought that he quietly whispered under his breath and as he realized that he said it out loud, he quickly looked down to your items again, his face red again. "T-That makes 3.550¥!" Shin said.

The sound of money being placed on the small silver tray and the rustling of the plastic bag being taken into hands was heard in his ears. "...Thank you for your purchase! Please visit us again." it is a line he says everyday and somehow it felt heavy to let those daily words out of his mouth. Shin didn't dare to meet her gaze once again, leaving his head down as he waited for her to leave the shop.

'Cute.' ah, he couldn't help himself but peek into her mind to get a taste of her thoughts. Not long after hearing her thoughts, he looked up with slightly widened eyes. Did she just call him cute? "Could you please ring this up too?" she asked and placed a cat keychain on the counter, getting out her purse again. Lost in thoughts, he stood there for a while and stared at the woman.

BEEP !

"Huh?!" Shin blinked at watched how she scanned the item herself. "W-What are you doing, ma'am?!"

"I helped myself..." she laid the money on the small silver tray again before she pointed the scanner at him and—

BEEP !

"Ring yourself up too." he cannot take her serious even though her face showed him plain boredness, the keychain already attached to her keys. "You look like this keychain."

"EHHH?!"

'SHE THINKS I'M CUTE?'
