After 5 years, Chapter 39 of Laws of Motion is now up and as tumblr dot com is my trash pit for all my writing, posting it here for the sake of it. Anyway it really is so fucking surreal that I am now the same age as the timeskip!bros so it's very obvious that I'm just. Projecting. Entirely. In this chapter.

[hanalwayssolo]

As part of my effort to rewrite the stupidly long series that is Laws of Motion, here's the ✨refreshed✨ edition of Chapter 1 - in which before the fall of Insmonia, everything was still ok I guess. Rewriting this felt like I looked into someone else's life when they were in their early twenties and thought, "You know what? we were all so young back then and we didn't know any better." 🤧

It goes without saying that when I started this series in 2017 (which is disgustingly 7 years ago????), I was in a different era of my life and revisiting this series now, I felt the unspeakable urge to rewrite the last couple of chapters not because I am entirely insane (just a wee bit) but because this project really is my brainrot and my creative outlet, and the way I wrote before no longer reflects the way I write now. Not that I needed to explain that lmao

i am only realising now that i made some parallels and i am sick to my core

Immensely grateful for the incomparable talent that is @wombywoo for once again bringing my brain baby to life from my (quite unfortunately) long dormant fic Laws of Motion! Here’s that particular Polaroid pic from chapter 2 feat. a very Dad!Cor ambushed by a cheeky young Gladio and my OC Briony. 🤧

[hanalwayssolo]

I've scoured your page for your ocs so I have two. Please, all the questions for Briony and Javier?

I’m sorry if this took so long anon but all questions???? I am absolutely happy to serve! 🫡

Placing this under the cut because I got carried away with the idea of Briony and Javier meeting through a virtual chat and getting to have a conversation.

OC interview questions

1 Who makes up your family? How close are you to them?

Briony: So there's Cor, and he’s my dad. Not by blood, though.

B: Then my mom. Her name's Candela. Again, not by blood.

B: Never met my real parents. According to my mom they gave me up because my real dad didn’t want a girl as a first born. So...

Javier: so i think--and pardon me for saying this--but your real parents should rot in hell.

B: LMAO thank you for standing in solidarity with me. 🥺

B: Anyway! There's also my ten-year-old daughter, Ellie.

B: I could I say I'm close to all of them, and I love them all very much. 💖

B: So yeah. That's pretty much it for me. How about you, sir?

J: well no need to address me as sir, ‘javi’ is just fine, your majesty.

B: Please, I’d also appreciate if you’d just call me Briony. 🥲

J: alright then :)

J: ok so i have a younger brother. his name is carlos. not sure if we’re close. he can be annoying and i know i can be annoying to him. or worse.

J: then darcy, my ex-wife. my bonita and scout, darcy’s kids from a previous relationship whom i both treat as if they were my own flesh and blood. greta, emma, leticia. i know it sounds strange and i won’t go deep into our affairs but all i can say is that even after all my shortcomings, they were still very generous enough to give me another chance. so i’m grateful for our blended family. 

J: as for my parents, well. mi padre--i mean my dad, our relationship was not exactly a good one. it’s more of like a professional relationship. he was only el jefe to us. nothing more.

J: my mamá, however, was the best of us. but my dad didn’t really treat her well so she ended up leaving.

B: Oh gods, I’m so sorry.

J: don’t be. my dad should be the one apologizing. 

B: This is probably the reason why they put us together here. We both have issues with our real parents.

J: jajajaja looks like it.

2. Who is your best friend? Tell us about them!

B: My best friend is my husband, and his name is Gladio. He looks absolutely mean and threatening because he’s 6′6″ but he’s just about the kindest and sweetest fella I’ve ever met. 

B: How about you, Javi?

J: not to put a damper on things but i don’t have one. a best friend, that is. 

B: You can’t be serious? But you seem so amiable. 

J: you are far too kind to me, briony. :)

B: Surely you had one before?

J: well... 

J: my ex-wife. i guess she was my best friend. we’re still friends now but our relationship is not like the one we had before. 

B: Oh. I see. 

B: Okay then, I won’t probe further. And I apologize for even broaching the subject. 

J: it’s alright, don’t worry about it. 

3. What is your favorite childhood memory?

J: so my mamá is a costume designer and she often took my brother and i to the local theatre to watch musicals and shakespearean plays. we would hang out backstage and we’d help out with everyone’s costumes. i love those days.

B: Your mother sounds like a lovely woman. 💖 

B: Which reminds me, when I was a kid, Mom would also take me to theatres and we’d watch all these plays, and we were always so fascinated with the music. Especially the costumes! The masks, the props, the entire production. And whenever we get home, she’d sit at the edge of my bed and we’d talk about it all night.

B: Thinking about it all makes me miss my childhood so much.

4. What is your least favorite childhood memory?

B: Now this is the question that makes me not miss my childhood at all LMAO

J: my sentiments exactly.

J: ladies first? jajaja

B: Fine. 

B: When I was ten, my hometown was invaded by the Empire. I watched as one of their generals killed our queen in front of her children, my childhood friends. I was separated from my Mom for a long time because of it. That’s when Cor found me and took me in.

B: I think that changed me.

B: Sorry, no—it really did change me. Made me really angry at the Empire. For a time, all I wanted was to hunt down every single Imperial soldier who killed my friends, who destroyed my home.

B: But at this point… I’m not so sure anymore. And I’m just tired of being angry, of being so lost.

J: it’s strange. your experience somehow reminds me of my own.

B: Really? How so?

J: my father runs a cartel for a living. one day a rival cartel broke into our house and beat the living daylights out of us. my mother included. i was 8, my brother was 5.

J: my father changed after that. i wasn’t surprised that he would want revenge; he has always been prideful, self-assured. but that incident… something about it made him ruthless. the way he treated my mother changed. he also changed how he treated my brother and i, most of all. he wanted us to be stronger, demanded us to do better. he even punished us for being weak.

J: about what you said about being angry for a time, he was angry for the rest of his life. he certainly made good of his promise that he would make the rival cartel pay, and pay they did with their life. i remember him bringing my brother and i to their hideout and showed us the bodies. everything was drenched in blood. when my brother started crying, my father forced him to look and said, “this is what i am willing to do for our family. i want you to stare at it. i don’t ever want you to cower in fear over this kind of violence, do you understand?”

J: so i guess long story short: my brother and i, we somehow inherited that anger. and we’re still paying the price.

J: and i know i’m the last person you’d want to hear this from, briony, considering i’m but a stranger to you… but i hope you don’t let your anger consume you. as someone who has ruined a lot of good things in my life: anger is poison. nothing good ever comes out of it.

5. What is your favorite thing to do in your free time?

J: ay dios mío, finally an easier question to answer.

B: LMAOOO IKR

B: I’ll let you go first!

J: my most favourite thing to do in my free time is to cook, make wine, and to also spend time with scout and bonita.

J: how about you?

B: I love reading books and watching movies with my daughter. She’s also been very keen recently in making costumes ever since we started going to our community theatre so I reckon she and your mom would definitely get along.

J: oh for sure. :) scout enjoys hanging out in old bookstores and i can see you and him getting along, too.

B: I would certainly love to meet him! 💖 I have a good friend who tends to a humble little book shop in my city. He’d probably have a swell time there.

6. What’s the hardest thing you’ve ever had to do?

B: Why are these questions like a rollercoaster ride????? LMAO

B: The hardest thing I’ve ever had to do is to answer all of these. And we’re not even halfway there yet!

J: likewise jajaja

J: but kidding aside though, what is the hardest thing you’ve ever had to do?

B: Hmmmmm. I’d say having to raise Ellie on my own in my early twenties. I didn’t know better at the time, and even though I’m thankful that I managed to get the support I need from Cor and my friends, it was still tough having a kid during a very tough time.

J: once again, you remind me of someone i know.

B: Really? Please do elaborate, if you don’t mind.

J: not at all. darcy had scout and bonita when she was in her twenties, too. i saw firsthand how difficult it had been for her—physically, emotionally, mentally. it took a toll on her once. bonita was at the peak of her tantrums and darcy screamed at her, too, telling her, “you think your life’s hard? you’re just a bloody baby! you don’t have the right to cry!”

B: Okay, I know how stressful that situation is because I have to admit, I had a similar experience with Ellie when she was a baby. I was so stressed at work and so I cried with her when she started throwing a tantrum.

B: Being a mother is hard work. My heart goes out to Darcy, truly.

B: But honestly whenever I think about that time now, I just find it hilarious. There I was, unable to afford therapy, so I was having a breakdown with my baby LMAO

B: I do hope Darcy finds that time as something she could laugh about now.

J: oh she does. she’s very transparent to the twins and she’s shared with them her lowest moments as their mum often as a light-hearted anecdote.

J: but i have to say—despite that, all darcy’s self-deprecating jokes aside, scout and bonita are very much understanding of their mum’s circumstances, which only goes to show how she has beautifully raised the twins. bonita is especially well aware that she can be a pain in the ass and that she’s glad her mum just cried with her even when she was a baby if it meant having to get a proper scolding without her understanding a single word.

B: So… would you count that as the hardest thing you ever had to do? Raising the kids together?

J: not really, no. i mean raising the twins was hard but it’s the kind of hard that feels so easy? i hope that makes sense.

B: Yup, it does. I get it. I felt the same way with Ellie.

J: so yeah. i suppose having to leave them that is the hardest.

B: How so?

J: because i ended up hurting them.

B: Can I ask you something?

J: sure, go ahead.

B: You still love her, don’t you?

J: yes. i suppose you can say that the other hardest thing i had to do is how to stop loving her.

J: clearly i’m not very good as it.

7. Who do you look up to?

B: My Mom and Cor, for sure.

J: i’m not sure…

B: Do you mind if I take a wild guess?

J: sure, go shoot your shot.

B: You look up to Darcy. What you’re not sure about is whether to share that information or not.

J: i’m starting to hate how astute you are, Your Majesty.

B: HAHAHAHA

B: Why thank you very much. 🥰

8. What do you think had the biggest impact on you growing up?

B: Javi and I both agree that our answer here is the same as the one we gave in #4 LMAO

9. Are you a spiritual person?  If yes, what do you practice?

J: i was raised a catholic but now i really don’t practice anything.

B: As for me, I was certainly raised to practice not giving a fuck about the gods.

10. Where were you born?  Where did you grow up?  Where do you live now?

B: Born and raised partly in Tenebrae and currently living here once more. The rest of my childhood was spent between Leide and Insomnia.

J: born and spent most of my childhood in la paz, bolivia until my family and i were moving between one south american city after another in my teens. now i live in kent.

11. What is your favorite type of media (TV, movie, books, etc)?  Name some specific favorites (which shows, movies, books, etc do you like)!

B: Books all the way. And Pablo Neruda has a special place in my heart.

J: it would be movies for me. i am particularly fond of historical drama and war films and my current favourite would be the one scout recommended that i watch, which was the pianist.

12. If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? (on vacation or permanently!)

B: I’m actually interested to go and see where you live, Javi.

J: i could say the same with you.

B: I guess we could exchange cities for a while for a vacation, no?

J: a wonderful idea. you can run my winery and i would…?

B: attend meetings with my advisors, hold court for tenebraeans needing counsel, and help my husband train my queensguard.

J: great. i think i’ll just stick to my winery then.

B: LMAO

13. You’re given an unlimited budget to build anything you want!  What do you build and where do you build it?

B: Rebuild the cities destroyed by the Empire, restore Tenebrae’s historical sights, improve the transport system, create more creative spaces for young people, among many other things.

J: i don’t think i could follow from that excellent response but all i could think of is the same thing but i’ll do it in la paz. fix everything that the cartels have destroyed.

14. What are your favorite music genres?

B: Indie rock and pop and classical.

J: Jazz. And classical, too.

15. Do you play any instruments?  Which ones?  How long have you been playing?

B: Unfortunately I can’t play shit for the life of me LMAO

B: Javi?

J: i’m strangely proud to admit that i do know how to play the guitar. my mother taught me when i was very young and it’s how we spent most of our time together: me playing her favourite songs while she sings along.

16. Describe your perfect day.

B: Breakfast with Gladio and Ellie, a quiet time in the library, a nice swim down at Zoldara Lake, and a day without me having to go about any royal duties. All four would in one day would be absolutely perfect.

J: A good cup of coffee, a walk down the vineyard, drive around town, getting some time with the twins.

17. What makes you laugh?

B: Ellie’s actually pretty funny and witty so she’s the one who makes me laugh the most.

J: bonita made me watch these silly videos of cats from this social media platform and i hate to even admit this but those are funny.

B: I didn’t peg you as someone who would enjoy cat videos. Color me surprised.

18. What’s the best way to cheer you up?

B: A good glass of wine should do the trick.

J: funny you should mention that because wine also cheers me up and i happen to have a winery.

B: Yes that’s me saying I would appreciate a bottle every now and then. As a treat.

19. What makes you sad?

J: can we skip this one?

B: Absolutely not.

J: okay then i guess what makes me sad is thinking about the things i’ve done in the past.

J: your turn

B: I’d say… thinking about the time I lost Ellie’s dad.

20. Describe your biggest pet peeve.

B: Idiots.

J: same.

B: Also people who are just deliberately unkind and those who refuse to change.

J: as bonita would say… big samesies

21. Describe your ideal partner.

B: I am very fortunate to have married my ideal partner and best friend.

J: then i guess i’m very much unfortunate that my ideal partner and i have already divorced.

B: Javi, I shit you not, after this interview I will hook you up with someone.

22. What’s the easiest way to flirt with you?

B: Here’s the thing… sometimes I can be completely oblivious with how flirting works. Which drives my husband mad at times because he’ll be doing this extraordinarily sweet thing and it just registers to me as him being awfully nice because there’s a special occasion LMAO

J: now that’s a relief to hear

B: LOL why!!

J: i just realized that i’m not as awkward as i think i am jajaja

B: HAHAHAH

J: to be perfectly honest, i can quickly get on with it through text or anything in the written form, which is probably the easiest way that anyone could flirt with me. but if it’s done in person, i do have the awful tendency to be oblivious. i have a number of people who have pointed this out, my brother most especially.

B: Now I’m curious to know: how did you and Darcy even started dating when you’re this awkward little duck? Like how did you even flirt with her?

J: texting was still not a thing at that time so i wrote her letters and poems.

B: Are you serious?? you say you’re awkward at flirting when you WROTE HER POEMS? Get the fuck outta here!!

23. Have you ever had a crush on someone?  Do you have a crush now?

B: Um, yes. And not to be an absolute sap but my crush now is my husband?

J: don’t worry, that is completely valid.

24. What would you consider your main love language?

B: I can’t say I only have one main love language; I’m actually inclined on both quality time and acts of service, for sure. I love doing things for the ones I love and whenever I get to spend time with them, and I very much appreciate it when they do the same.

J: i’m a quality time kind of guy, and also physical touch. it is certainly nice to hold someone you love and to be held by them.

B: Goddamn the poet jumped out, good sir! 🤭

N*sfw under the cut.

Ship meme n*sfw edition

Sam and Darcy

How often do they have sex?

Everyday Well, on a weekly basis, more or less three to four times a week. Though this would be different if they’re actively trying to get pregnant. Sam would faithfully follow Darcy’s cycle, and she even blocks evenings on his calendar during her ovulation period to remind him that he has someone to do, and that someone is her. 

(Once, in the middle of a night out with Nathan and Sully, Sam had to excuse himself when the alarm on his phone off, and it is almost hilarious that Darcy changed his alarm tone to Careless Whisper, and Nathan’s like, “What the fuck is that?” to which Sam casually replies, “Gentlemen, I believe that is my cue to go home and make love to my wife.”)

Who is louder/noisier?

Surprisingly, Sam is louder lmao. Darcy is really not much of a screamer but a whimperer, so his groans and grunts are louder than the noises she makes. And she likes it, the way he sounds so hungry for her, the way she makes him feel good. The weight of him. The danger.

...Okay, maybe the only exception is when Sam makes Darcy come hard. One would think someone just got murdered in their bedroom.

Who is more sensitive?

Darcy. She has a lot of ticklish spots, and boy oh boy does Sam enjoy teasing the living shit out of her.

What’s foreplay often like?

An intense, sensual mess. Their mouths are made to worship. This is how they sing hallelujah. Sam is a giver, so what choice does he have but to give her all he has? And so he makes every kiss count, every touch, every moan as if it were his last. As if it all weighs fifteen years of him being apart from her. He explores the space of her skin like a man starved and colonizes it. Finds home in the warmth between her thighs until she is screaming his name. Finds no rest until she is coming on his face. And she lets him exhaust her like this. She always, always lets him.

But Darcy is a giver, too, and she refuses to let Sam do all the work. She returns the kisses with her own, leaves one for every scar that marks his skin. She may not be a woman of faith, but this is how she likes getting on her knees. Wraps her pretty pink mouth all over him. Her tongue is soft and warm, and he is harder than ever. She swallows when he comes. And he lets her savour him like this. He always, always lets her.

And god, the sight of her taking him in, the bob of her head, the sweet delicious pop is enough for Sam to lose his fucking mind.

Favorite place to have sex?

Kitchen. Sam likes going down on Darcy as he pushes her to sit on the countertop, her legs over his shoulders, her hands all over his hair. Fucking her with his mouth is his favourite way to start his day. Heck, fucking in the kitchen in general is and will always be their favourite way to start their day. Then they get to have pancakes afterwards. I mean, mornings done right tbh.

Do they have sexual nicknames or titles?

Nothing in particular, actually. Although, Sam realizes that Darcy gets to call him “Sam��� only when in bed and he kinda digs that.

How long can they go?

Depends? Normally, 2-3 rounds, tops. They’re not getting any younger, so. 😂

What are their safewords?

Cheese and/or pasta. 

Shared kinks/fetishes?

Roleplay! (Their ideas are almost hilarious like... hot priest Sam inspired from Fleabag? Darcy’s idea. Darcy as a sexy wartime nurse, and he an injured soldier? Definitely Sam’s.) Also, bondage to some extent! (I’ve mentioned it here before but Sam isn’t really a fan of roleplaying any form of physical violence with Darcy.) And also watching each other masturbate? Is something they find impossibly hot?? Bonus if Darcy does this in her lingerie????? God help their thirsty ass souls???

Nyx and Briony

How often do they have sex?

Depends if they are not deployed in the battlefield, but under normal circumstances, they do it.... twice a day lmao.

Who is louder/noisier?

Briony. She’s a screamer and Nyx enjoys the shit out of it especially when she calls out for his name. Gods. He likes to let the rest of their neighbours to know that someone is getting the best fuck of their lives and it is happening in their goddamn room.

Who is more sensitive?

Still Briony. That’s why she’s always a weeping, heaving mess because Nyx definitely makes the most out of this.

What’s foreplay often like?

A disastrous mess. Kisses, all teeth and tongue. Her fingers scraping his scalp, the curve of his back. Nyx is a generous man, and so he lovingly returns the favour by giving her the pleasure she deserves with his hands and mouth. All for her, all for her, all for her. He likes the way she writhes when he fucks her with his deft fingers. He likes the needy way she moans his name. And he likes it best when he gets to devour her like a man starved until she is begging for her to fuck her senseless. 

Favorite place to have sex?

Kingsglaive HQ shower room when no one’s around. Briony’s sofa. The library.

Do they have sexual nicknames or titles?

Nyx calls Briony his “little vixen.” Briony often calls him “my hero” in bed, and it’s actually the only time Nyx doesn’t mind being called that.

How long can they go?

Five! Nyx has the stamina of a mighty stallion, much to Briony’s dismay, but she tries to keep up, pee in between rounds, hydrate, go back to bed, and return to the fucking of her life.

What are their safewords?

Whiskey (Briony’s suggestion, because then they’d automatically think of their feline Messenger lmao)

Shared kinks/fetishes?

Nyx actually likes being tied up and being dominated by Briony, so... there’s that and a lot of that.

[hanalwayssolo]

emoji moodboard meme for anon: briony + ❤️ a romantic relationship of my muse (feat. nyx ulric)

[hanalwayssolo]

26. “Broken, as you clutch the sleeve of my jacket and beg me not to leave“ with Nyx x Briony please! Expect some FFXV related asks from me in the coming weeks as I continue LoM now that my schedule is opening up. (I’m also writing some FFXV, along with Uncharted. You’re writing has inspired me once again.) LoM Anon. ❤️

Ahhh I’m so happy you’re writing for both FFXV and Uncharted, LoM anon!! And ugh gosh I really can’t wrap my head around the idea that my writing has inspired you. 🥺 Anyway, here’s some Nyx x Briony for ya, my friend! 💕✨ (also tagging @valkyrieofardyn because the song you sent me is A VIBE)

26. Broken, as you clutch the sleeve of my jacket and beg me not to leave

Briony is watching Nyx put on his clothes when she thinks how this might be the last time she’ll ever see him again.

It is a strange and frightening thought to entertain, not when she still ached from the sweet sore of how they made love only moments ago to welcome the breaking dawn. But the thought of it arrives nonetheless, steals the joy of her reprieve like a thief in the night, a ruthless phantom in the dark. It grips her like an armored hand around her throat. She could never imagine now what her life would be like without Nyx. All she knows is that the mere idea of losing him paralyzes her with a pain that she can almost taste.

The distress must have been too obvious on her face when Nyx sits on the edge of the bed and asks: “Why are you looking at me like that, Brie Cheese? Something on my face?” He smiles, pinches her chin between warm, calloused fingers.

Briony shakes her head and says nothing. She pulls the sheets closer to her chest.

“Something is bothering you, Mrs. Ulric,” Nyx says in a tone that is somehow both playful and certain. “Talk to me, my future wife—“

“Stay,” says Briony. “Don’t go now. Let’s stay in bed for a while.”

Nyx exhales a breathy laugh. “Brie,” he says, brushing her cheek, “I’m only going to the HQ. I’ll be back before you know it. And we’ll be seeing each other tonight, alright?”

Briony nods. She is quiet again.

Just as Nyx is about to leave, Briony catches the sleeve of his jacket.

“I love you,” she says, as if her I love you is a plea and prayer all at once, as if it is a muffled scream against the silence that rallies, Don’t go, stay, don’t leave me, promise me you’ll come back.

Nyx smiles back at her, presses a kiss on the crown of her head, her face, her neck, her mouth. “I love you, too,” he says. “I will always love you.”

Briony watches Nyx shut the door behind him. The soft click is a distinct and cruel sound that she will remember in the years to come.

the way you said “I love you.”

[hanalwayssolo]

ღ for gladio & briony 😌

So I’m assuming here that I really have to fill everything out lol so here ya go!

(Tagging @valkyrieofardyn because OF REASONS)

Who is the first one to wake up in the morning: Gladio. He’s an early riser compared to Briony, who always prefers to remain in bed even at 9AM.

Who’s the one to make breakfast: Both. If Briony’s still asleep, it’s usually Gladio. But, when Gladio goes for an early morning run, Briony makes breakfast for the both of them.

Who’s the one to serve the other breakfast in bed: Gladio, for sure. Because, well, he already knows if he can’t drag Briony out of bed for breakfast, might as well take it to her.

Who would suggest a quickie in the morning before work: This actually depends? Most of the time, it’s Gladio. But if Briony is up for a busy day, she won’t hesitate to push Gladio back into the bed or pull him into the shower with her. Gladio never complains. He even makes sure that she ends up wanting more.

Who suggests they both ditch work to lay around all day: Briony, all the fucking time.

Who chooses the movies: Briony, because Gladio trusts her tastes better than he trusts his own.

Who initiates the kissing during the movie, thus distracting the other from the movie altogether: Gladio. Always works.

Who orders lunch: Briony. On lazy days, she does this often when she doesn’t want Gladio to even bother cooking for them both.

Who steals food from the other’s plate without asking: Gladio. But it’s more like stealing the untouched food on Briony’s plate, like he knows she’s not going to eat those mushrooms or carrots.

Who curls up next to the other and falls asleep due to a full tummy: Briony. She often does this when she already spots Gladio reading on the couch. He lets her sleep on his lap.

Who distracts the other from trying to work at home: Gladio. His methods of distraction are often… sexual in nature lmao

Who asks to get ice cream like a five year old: Briony. This often happens at the peak of her period and she gets all moody with cravings. Gladio is already attuned to this like a pro, and has their fridge nicely stocked.

Who takes pictures of their partner eating ice cream: Both! Gladio acknowledges that Briony is the better photographer, but he likes taking photos of her on his phone because his shots are always funny and unflattering on purpose just to piss her off. Especially when she eats ice cream.

Who makes a sexual joke about the dripping ice cream on their partner’s face: Also both! At this point, Briony can parry Gladio’s innuendos pretty well that y’all can bet after they finish their ice cream, they are both going to take this to bed.

Who cooks dinner: This time, it’s Briony.

Who cleans up afterwards: Gladio!

Who stays up until 2 reading: Briony. Ever since having Ellie, she really can’t fix her body clock back to normal, lol.
