[calypso-rt]

lodge retreat!

with the insufferable Rafe Cameron

-> Pt. 1: roadtrip!

-> Rafe x F!reader

-> read part 1 for context por favor i promise it's good

The second you step out of Rafe’s car, the crisp mountain air hits you: fresh pine, damp earth, the lingering chill of early morning. It would be breathtaking if you weren’t immediately tackled by a blur of white linen and wild curls.

“Oh my God,” Kiara shrieks, squeezing the life out of you. “I thought you died.”

You grunt, winded. “Good to see you too, Kie.”

JJ appears right behind her, grinning. “We were taking bets on how you’d show up. My money was on a dramatic helicopter entrance.”

You snort. “Yeah, well, my other option was walking, so.”

Kiara finally pulls back, eyes darting behind you, and when she sees who drove you here, her jaw drops.

“No.”

Rafe, ever the picture of smug confidence, leans against the car like he owns the entire lodge. “Yes,” he says smoothly.

Kiara turns to you in pure betrayal. “Him?”

You rub your temples. “It was him or missing your wedding.”

JJ claps Rafe on the back, laughing. “Damn, man. Never thought I’d see the day.”

“What day?” Rafe asks, feigning innocence. “The day she begged me for a favor?”

Your nostrils flare. “It was not begging.”

Kiara gapes at the two of you, looking suspiciously between you and Rafe like she’s trying to solve an actual crime scene. “What the hell happened on that drive?”

“Nothing,” you say quickly.

“Everything,” Rafe says at the exact same time.

Kiara narrows her eyes. “Okay. We’ll circle back to that.”

Before you can protest, the wedding party descends, groomsmen, bridesmaids, old friends, enveloping you in greetings and chatter. And of course, Rafe slides into the mix way too easily, laughing with JJ, charming the bridal party like he belongs here.

Then, the worst thing imaginable happens.

One of the groomsmen nudges JJ and nods toward you and Rafe. “Damn. How long have they been a thing?”

You nearly choke. “We are not—”

“Oh, since forever,” Rafe says smoothly, throwing an arm over your shoulders.

JJ grins. “Right? About time they admitted it.”

Kiara looks ready to combust with questions. You? You’re mentally calculating the fastest way to throw yourself off the nearest mountain.

This weekend just got way more complicated.

...

“This has to be a joke,” you say flatly.

The front desk attendant offers you a sheepish smile. “I’m afraid not. Since you arrived late, the only room we have left is our Honeymoon Suite.”

You blink. Then blink again. “Our what?”

Next to you, Rafe lets out a low whistle, his amusement practically radiating off him. “Damn, sweetheart. Didn’t know we were taking the next step so soon.”

You elbow him in the ribs. Hard.

The attendant clears her throat. “It’s a king-sized bed, private balcony, en-suite jacuzzi…” She hesitates. “It’s also… heart themed.”

You pinch the bridge of your nose. “Of course it is.”

Rafe, ever the menace, grins. “Sounds perfect.”

“It is not perfect,” you snap. “It’s a disaster.”

“C’mon,” he leans in, voice teasing. “What’s the worst that could happen? You fall madly in love with me?”

You glare. “I’d rather sleep in the car.”

The attendant winces. “Actually, overnight parking isn’t allowed on the premises.”

You curse under your breath.

“Guess that settles it,” Rafe hums, reaching for the key. “Honeymoon Suite it is.”

You stare at the room key in his hand, then at the front desk worker who clearly wants no part in this mess. Finally, with a deep sigh, you snatch your bag off the counter.

“This weekend just keeps getting better and better,” you mutter.

Rafe chuckles, slinging an arm around your shoulder as you stomp toward the suite. “Don’t worry, baby. I’ll be a perfect gentleman.”

You roll your eyes, but there’s no denying the warmth creeping up your neck.

...

The second you step into the suite, you stop dead in your tracks.

“Oh. My. God.”

Rafe lets out a low whistle behind you. “This is… something.”

It’s worse than you imagined. Scratch that, it’s a nightmare.

The entire room is decked out in nauseatingly over-the-top romance décor. The bed is massive, covered in silky red sheets with actual rose petals scattered on top. There’s a heart-shaped jacuzzi in the corner, an abundance of dim mood lighting, and, just to really drive the point home, two fluffy white robes embroidered with Mr. and Mrs. hanging by the bathroom door.

“I’m gonna be sick,” you mutter.

Rafe chuckles, strolling inside like he belongs there. “Gotta say, I’m kinda touched by the matching towels, wife.”

You glare. “I’m assuming divorce is included with the stay.”

He smirks, tossing his bag onto the bed. “Careful, sweetheart. Talk like that and people might think you actually like me.”

You throw your bag at him.

He catches it easily, laughing as he plops down onto the bed. “Gotta admit, this is kinda nice.” He bounces slightly. “Bed’s comfy.”

“You mean the bed,” you deadpan. “Singular. One.”

Just as you start looking for anywhere else to sleep, Rafe props himself up on his elbows. “You know,” he muses, “we could set some ground rules.”

You narrow your eyes. “Like what?”

He holds up a finger. “Rule one: no kicking me in your sleep.”

“Fine. Rule two: no hogging the covers.”

Rafe snorts. “Baby, I am the covers.”

You throw a pillow at him.

He laughs, catching it with ease, but then his expression softens. “Seriously, though,” he says, sitting up. “If it makes you uncomfortable, I can take the couch.”

Your stomach flips. It’s the first time he’s dropped the teasing act, and for some reason, that throws you more than the heart-shaped bed.

You cross your arms, avoiding his gaze. “It’s fine. We’re adults. We can survive one night.”

Rafe watches you for a beat, then nods. “Alright, sweetheart. Just don’t go falling in love with me in your sleep.”

You roll your eyes, but for the first time since stepping into the room… you don’t completely hate the idea.

...

The fire crackles, sending embers drifting into the cool mountain air. Laughter and music fill the night as people gather around, drinks in hand, wrapped in the golden glow of the flames.

You pull your sweater tighter around you, balancing a cup of something warm in your hands as you take in the scene. JJ and Kiara are at the center of it all: her curled up against his side, his arm slung over her shoulders, both of them grinning like they already know tomorrow will be the best day of their lives.

“Didn’t think they’d actually make it here, did you?”

Rafe’s voice is low, teasing, as he steps up beside you.

You smirk. “Oh, not a chance. I had a whole bet going on whether they’d call it off or elope somewhere at the last minute.”

He chuckles, nudging your shoulder. “And what was your money on?”

You take a sip of your drink. “Elope. With JJ’s track record? I figured he’d panic and drag Kie to Vegas.”

Rafe hums in agreement, watching as JJ dramatically dips Kiara in front of the fire, making her burst into laughter.

“They’re disgustingly cute,” you say, scrunching your nose.

“Painful to watch,” Rafe agrees.

A comfortable silence settles between you. The night is crisp, the fire warm, the stars impossibly bright against the inky sky. You steal a glance at Rafe. His profile sharp in the firelight, the usual smugness softened into something… calmer. Almost thoughtful.

He catches you looking. “What?”

You shake your head. “Nothing.”

Before he can press, JJ’s voice booms across the clearing.

“Alright, listen up!” He stumbles a little as he climbs onto a log, lifting his beer like a toast. “Tomorrow’s a big day. Huge, actually. Probably the biggest day of my life—”

“Probably?” Kiara cuts in, arching a brow.

JJ grins. “Definitely the biggest day of my life.” He throws an arm around her, pressing a dramatic kiss to her temple before turning back to the group. “And I just wanna say… I love all you guys.”

A chorus of cheers erupts around the fire. Pope hollers, Sarah claps, and someone (probably John B) yells, “Simp!”

JJ flips them off. “Yeah, yeah, laugh it up. But for real… wouldn’t wanna do this without you guys.” His gaze sweeps over the group, landing on you. “Even you,” he adds with a smirk.

You roll your eyes. “Wow, I’m honored.”

He winks, then shifts his attention to Rafe. “And you? Didn’t think I’d catch you dead at my wedding.”

Rafe smirks, tipping his beer in JJ’s direction. “What can I say? Your bride’s best friend begged me to be here.”

You elbow him, but JJ just cackles. “Now that I believe.”

The night stretches on. More drinks, more laughter, more warmth. At some point, you find yourself sitting next to Rafe on a log, legs stretched out toward the fire.

It’s easy, being here like this. The banter, the teasing, it’s all still there, but something’s different. Softer. Less sharp edges, more… something else.

You glance at Rafe again, and this time, he’s already looking at you.

Neither of you say anything. It doesn’t feel like you need to.

...

Rafe looks good in a suit. Too good. And it’s annoying.

You tell yourself it doesn’t matter. That it shouldn’t matter. But as you glance across the ceremony space: rows of chairs lined up against the stunning mountain backdrop, JJ standing at the altar, fidgeting slightly as he waits for Kiara, you can’t help but notice the way Rafe carries himself.

The dark navy suit, perfectly tailored. The way his hair is effortlessly styled, like he barely tried but still somehow managed to look infuriatingly good.

You drag your gaze away, focusing on the moment. Kiara appears, breathtaking in her dress, and JJ’s jaw literally drops.

The ceremony is beautiful, full of soft vows and inside jokes and that overwhelming kind of love that makes your chest ache. You should be focused on them.

But every time you glance up, Rafe is already looking at you.

He doesn’t smirk like usual. Doesn’t tease. Just holds your gaze for a beat too long, like he’s reading every thought you don’t want to have right now.

You swallow hard and turn away.

Afterwards, the reception is in full swing. The string lights cast a golden glow over the outdoor dance floor, laughter and music filling the air. People are already tipsy, the speeches are done, and JJ is dramatically twirling Kiara around.

You’re nursing a drink, enjoying the moment, when someone slides up next to you.

“Didn’t think I’d see you here.”

You glance up at the guy, Nate something, a friend of the Pogues, someone you’ve talked to once or twice at parties. He’s charming enough, leaning in slightly, a slow smile on his face.

You smile back, making casual conversation. It’s harmless. Just friendly.

Until you feel a presence at your side.

You don’t see Rafe approach, but suddenly, he’s there. Close. The warmth of him practically pressing into your space as he casually—too casually—rests a hand on the small of your back.

“Nate,” Rafe says, voice smooth but cool. “Didn’t know you were still hanging around.”

Nate chuckles, clearly oblivious. “Could say the same about you, man.”

Rafe’s fingers press just slightly against your back, the touch light but unmistakable. “Yeah, well. Some things are worth sticking around for.”

You blink, glancing up at him. What the hell does that mean?

Nate hesitates, eyes flicking between the two of you. “Right. Well…” He offers you a quick smile. “I’ll see you around.”

As soon as he’s gone, you turn to Rafe. “Okay, what was that?”

He doesn’t move his hand. If anything, he steps in closer, voice low in your ear.

“We were supposed to dance first.”

Your breath catches.

It’s not the words that get you, it’s the way he says them. The quiet intensity. The way his fingers linger, the way he looks at you like he’s just now realizing something himself.

You should pull away. Should roll your eyes and brush it off like you always do.

But for some reason, you don’t.

Then, the music shifts, something slower, something golden-hued and dreamlike, and Rafe takes it as a sign.

His fingers slide from the small of your back to your hand, and before you can process what’s happening, he’s leading you onto the dance floor. Your heart stutters as his palm finds your waist, the other curling around your fingers, holding you close but not too close.

“You’re serious about this?” you murmur, trying to sound unaffected, but your voice is softer than you mean for it to be.

Rafe smirks, tilting his head. “What, afraid I’ll step on your toes?”

You scoff, but the breathless feeling in your chest betrays you. He moves easily, naturally, guiding you in slow circles beneath the string lights. The world narrows to the warmth of his hand, the quiet push and pull between you.

“I thought you’d be terrible at this,” you admit.

He hums. “I’m full of surprises.”

The glow of the reception wraps around you both, the background noise fading into something distant, unimportant. His thumb brushes against the side of your hand absentmindedly, like he doesn’t even realize he’s doing it.

Your gaze flickers up, catching the way he’s watching you, like you’re something worth memorizing.

“Some things are worth sticking around for,” he says again, softer this time.

And suddenly, you realize.

He wasn’t just talking about the party.

…

You wake up warm.

Which is strange, because you remember falling asleep on the farthest possible side of the bed, a clear, respectable distance from Rafe.

And yet, there’s an arm draped over your waist. A steady rise and fall against your back. The slow, even rhythm of his breathing, inches from your ear.

Oh.

You blink, still half-asleep, brain sluggish as it tries to process the situation. You should move. Should untangle yourself before he wakes up and starts smirking about it. But it’s early. So early the sun is barely creeping through the gauzy hotel curtains. And the bed is warm, and comfortable, and…

Rafe shifts behind you, murmuring something incoherent, his grip unconsciously tightening, pulling you closer.

You freeze.

Okay. Okay. This is fine.

Maybe if you just—

“Stop thinking so loud,” Rafe mumbles, voice still thick with sleep.

Your breath catches. “I—”

His arm flexes slightly, like he’s debating letting go. But he doesn’t.

“You were hogging the covers,” he says, voice scratchy. “Had to do something.”

“You are the covers,” you murmur back before you can stop yourself.

A slow chuckle rumbles from his chest. “Told you.”

You should shove him away. You should, because this is ridiculous. But you don’t.

Instead, you let yourself relax, just for a second. Let yourself exist in this quiet moment, where neither of you are arguing, where his warmth seeps into your skin, where it’s easy to pretend that this—whatever this is—is normal.

A beat of silence.

Then—

“You drool in your sleep,” Rafe says, lips twitching.

You shove him. Hard.

He laughs, rolling onto his back as you sit up, yanking the covers away from him. “I do not.”

“Oh, you definitely do.” He stretches, arms over his head, looking far too smug for someone who was just cuddling you in his sleep. “Like, full-on, pillow soaking, completely unattractive—”

You grab one of the decorative heart-shaped pillows and smack him with it.

He grins, dodging easily, sitting up as you swing at him again. “Whoa, whoa… violence already? And here I thought we were having a moment.”

You glare, but your pulse is betraying you, thrumming a little too fast. “We were not having a moment.”

Rafe raises a brow, tilting his head. “No?”

“No,” you insist, scrambling off the bed. “It was the sleep deprivation. I wasn’t thinking straight.”

He hums, clearly unconvinced. “Right. That explains why you didn’t let go.”

You throw another pillow at him.

He just laughs, shaking his head as he watches you storm into the bathroom. “Whatever you say, sweetheart.”

And the worst part?

You can still feel the ghost of his arm around you.

[shoukiko]

idk if your requests are still open (sorry if they aren't!! m(_ _)m) but if they are, could i get some headcanons for the ghosts boys? thank yoouuu (* ^ ω ^)

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES ANYTHING!!!!!!!! BARKBARKRBRAKBRAKBRAKRAKBRA

(I didn't know if I should write about Ajax and Elias or not;;;;)

Call of Duty: Ghosts Headcanons!!!

Keegan

He's good as his job, always getting shit done.

but oh my god is he a bad influence on you

"Want a shot?" "I'm not 21 yet, Keegan." "I asked if you wanted a shot, not how old you were."

On roadtrips he's never allowed to drive, but he will backseat drive. "You should take this highway instead" "I know a faster way" "If you go down this road you could probably reach it easier"

Snores when he's asleep, I feel like he may have sleep apnea or something like that.

HE'S REALLY LOUD TOOOO

Mumbling in his sleep if he's asleep in a chair

That's another thing, he can fall asleep literally anywhere. Chair? Yes. Under the bed? Yes. Under a table? Yes.

He has sharp canines, I don't make the rules. He uses them to open things

He LOVES your scent, he likes having just one thing of yours just to hold and have near.

I don't think he would call you Kid if he was interested in you, I think he'd stick with your name or "Hun". Unless you're older than him, then he uses generic shit like "Babe"

A man of a few words, he gives short answers, pretty blunt, but in text he will ramble on and on~

He likes writing, he finds that it's easier for him to process his words and gives him time to think.

Logan

Good boy, very good and well behaved boy.

Grown man, but good boy

He's actually really mischievous, they took a trip (The team) to Italy while on leave and when visiting the Tower of Pisa he offered to take Keegans photo.

Gesturing for him to lean, pose, scooch back, just so he can get the perfect photo.

Only for him to take it, snickering to himself because he made Keegan pose extremely far from the tower so the photo just looks silly.

Keegan had a good laugh about it, only after he put Logan into a headlock

He does the same to Hesh, always asking for some water, then being like "I didn't ask for this" so Hesh takes it back and when he comes back empty handed Logan is like "Water?"

He's very quiet, way more than Keegan.

He only gives nods or gestures, speaks when he needs to though, like in call outs and such.

He'd call you Love

Whispering sweet nothings into your ear

Can you imagine Cody Callahan doing that? Kill me plz

Hesh

HE HAS A THING FOR HANDS I JUST KNOW IT, I JUST KNOW IT YOU CAN'T TELL ME OTHERWISE!!!!!

HE LOVES HOLDING YOUR HAND AND JUST RUBBING YOUR FINGERS

YOU CAN FEEL HOW ROUGH HIS CALLUSES ARE

HE TILTS HIS HEAD WHEN HE LOOKS AT YOU BECAUSE HE IS JUST SO ENAMOURED WITH YOU

CAN YOU TELL I LOVE HESH, CAN YOU????

He's a gamer boy, console only. Xbox..... Don't argue with me (You can have your own I was /j)

Before shaving his head, he had a hairstyle similar to DJ Pauly D. Let's keep it shaved.

He refuses to have a mustache, just straight up refuses. He will shave the minute he sees it coming in.

Beard or Goatees are pushing it, but he shaves anyways (except the sideburns of course)

That man loves veggies, he's the type to just steam a bunch of em and that's his dinner. Literally just that.

He likes stealing food from you, picking from your plate. If you don't like something, you best believe he's there eating it for you

"David, I'm full" "Give it here, babe."

Merrick

His memory is impeccable

He will always rememebr your favorite things

He's not big on gift giving, but when he does give gifts they're incredibly thoughtful.

Drives a really beat down pickup truck

Calls it his baby girl

Don't judge him >:(

Resting bitch face, eyebrows always furrowed

But then he sees you and his expression softens because he just loves seeing you.

Has the heartiest laugh imaginable, slaps his knee when laughing too

Asks for help putting on his face paint :((((

He just wants a reason to be touched by you

Kick

Earbuds in 24/7 when not on a mission.

He needs music to function!!!

He's the type to put on some hardcore music and pretend he's fighting someone, like the people that imagine their own animation edit when listening to a song they like

He sneaks food to Riley sometimes, when they're all eating, he's the one throwing stuff on the floor for him

Unironically uses "COWABUNGA"

He's just a lil.... ya know... right? Just a little (He's gay)

Kinda short, like 5'6-5'8

Has ADHD

Wears insoles (hims feet hort)

I know he doesn't have a name, but his name is now Hunter Cameron and his last name is Miller

Has freckles and a chipped front tooth

That's all I got :3

for now :3

[according2thelore]

I'm rusty on my supernatural lore,

But what would you imagine Dean [and Sam's] life would have been if Dean stayed and grew up ay Sonnys?

anon!!!! ANON!!!!

WHAT THE FUCKKK!!! this has sent me into an absolute spiral. oh god. let's discuss!!!!!!!

i don't see john winchester leaving dean there permanently, even though he was angry enough to leave him there for a few months, so i'm sure some kind of law enforcement had to be involved, or CPS once they find the repeated knife marks on dean's forearm from shifter tests.

i also can't see dean leaving sam with john by himself, especially since sam is younger. i think if dean was raised by sonny, he'd try to run away a few times, until it's made clear to him that if CPS finds out john has another--even younger--kid with him, sammy'll end up in the system.

dean's life changes pretty drastically. about six months in, he starts getting antsy. he's made efforts to make friends/get prom dates/form a group at this school, but when they stay in his life beyond a certain time, he doesn't really know what to do with himself. he doesn't know how to maintain long-term friendships or relationships outside of sam, and with sam it was effortless. he's not good at purposefully socializing, and breaks a lot of friendships due to unintentional cruelty. it takes him a while to get used to having people that know him, and i imagine the first time his friends celebrate his birthday, dean kind of freaks out, bc his job is to be unknown, a face in the crowd that disappears in a month.

i think dean would be pretty popular in school, even if it's in an infamous way. he doesn't have any qualms about breaking into classrooms after school hours, he fixes a car in shop by hot wiring it, and when michael f.'s ankle gets broken in gym, dean's splinted it before the teacher can run back to the room and call the office.

sonny notices dean getting antsy and jittery, and recommends he join the football team, or the basketball team, or the baseball team. dean is like "woah, no, i'm not built for team activities." but he probably ends up enrolling for a season just to get sonny to shut up. he loves it. he loves the automatic surface-level friendships built in, he loves getting to miss class, and he loves the inherent status that comes with it.

dean's not used to being able to have and afford things, and sonny gets called into the high school because dean's been skipping gym for a week. when sonny's like "hey kid, wtf?" dean shrugs and is a little shit about it, but it turns out his sneakers have completely fallen apart. he tried a mixture of gluing/sewing them back together, and it worked for a month, but now they're irreparable. sonny starts asking dean once a month if he needs anything. he's not wealthy, mind you, but when dean shyly asks for new jeans, he and sonny are in goodwill THAT DAY getting dean jeans he doesn't have to hold up with a belt.

dean does well in english, does well in foreign language (he takes spanish), does REALLY well in shop, but has to get after-school tutoring in math.

dean misses sam more than the air in his lungs. he has nightmares nightly about sam dying, and dean is too far away to help. when he's seventeen, one of the younger kids introduces dean as his older brother to one of his school friends, and dean has a panic attack in the bathroom. he's real sweet on the younger kids, and the only time he gets in trouble for fighting at school is when the smallest one gets his head shoved in a toilet.

dean treats sonny like a coworker instead of an authority figure, which is pretty typical for kids like this. younger kids come to him with problems, and the only reason dean actually goes to after school math tutoring is so he can help the younger ones with their math homework when they ask.

when dean turns eighteen, sonny offers him the chance to stay. dean knows he's gotta find sammy. but while he takes weekend roadtrips to hunt down john and sam, he funds these trips with working at a car wash and takes mechanic trade school classes during the week.

now sammy...his life changes. a lot. john didn't take him on many hunts before, since he had dean to come with him, but now sam is going on almost every hunt, at age twelve.

his childhood was long-since over, but sam gets thrust into full hunting before his voice drops. he tries to run away from john to get to dean monthly. john starts disassembling the door handles at each motel they stay at, until sam learns how to put them back together. sam wants them both to be raised by sonny, because he's catastrophically lonely now.

john doesn't tell him the truth. in S9E7 when we get introduced to sonny, sam has no idea that dean was in a boys' home. i think john tries to lie as long as possible, saying dean's lost on a hunt, then that dean's at bobby's, then finally admitting that dean got in some hot water with the state and is at a boys' home. he never tells sam about the full truth though, with the money and the stealing, and by the time john ended his "punishment" and went to pick him up, the state was involved.

john blames himself for dean being taken away, and even though he knows dean is safer away from them, he's heartbroken he doesn't get to watch his son become an adult.

for the hunts that are too dangerous for sam to accompany john on, sam sits shivering under a motel blanket, terrified out of his mind. if john's dead, sam's completely alone in the world. he has no idea how to drive the car to get to dean. hitch-hiking would get him kidnapped or killed or worse. he doesn't know how to run the credit card scams. every time john comes back alive and mostly in one piece, sam stifles tears into his pillow, relief too big to name.

when john doesn't take him on hunts, sam is up all night researching. he's the primary researcher now, and he needs two cups of coffee to wake up in the morning by the time he's thirteen.

he and john fight. constantly. there's not a mediator anymore, and with puberty making sam a concentrated ball of rage, john has no idea how to handle him. dean was obedient. sam is furious. when they fight, john ends up storming out, sometimes for days on end, because there's not someone to calm him down or tell him sam didn't mean it.

sam writes letters to dean, but doesn't know their address ahead of time enough to let dean write back. when john finds out, he's furious. not only does it risk sam also getting taken, he knows it stresses dean out and risks dean getting surrendered to the state instead of sonny's if he runs away when he hears about the hunts sam gets taken on. he cuts off their communication. that time, sam runs away for two and a half weeks. john finds him in a bus stop in indiana, curled asleep against the wall with a hand-written sign that says rides to new york.

sam's only refuge is at school, and even though he loves his dad, has very little guilt about attending college fairs at sixteen.

when john and sam finally show up to sonny's a few months after dean's eighteenth birthday, sam gets out of the car before it even stops moving and slams with both fists on the front door like he's trying to escape instead of enter the door. sonny opens it, and sam's practically frothing at the mouth to get dean back. some of the younger kids that are out of school for the day are like "what do u want with our brother?? 🤨" and sam loses his SHIT. because what the fuck do you MEAN?

dean comes home from the garage when sonny calls him, and dean shows up breathless and sweaty and streaked in grease because he ran because waiting for the bus would take too long.

sam is only an inch shorter than him now at fourteen, as he hurls himself out of the house and takes dean to the ground. they both cry but pretend they don't. the hug lasts so long, dean petting through sam's hair, and sam's eyes closed tightly, nose buried in dean's sweaty collarbone that everyone looks around awkwardly. i'm talking minutes.

THIS PROMPT MAKES ME CRAZY!!!! ANON!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SENDING IT IN!!!! your mind is so big...so huge...i had SO much fun thinking about it!!!! thank you sm!!! mwah mwah mwah!

-lizzy

[sugar-omi]

heey, I'd have a wholesome request. The prompt is that it's playing in step 2 so they're stupid teenagers who have a crush on each other, and gn!reader is waiting on the beach for Cove to spent the day with him. Cove is taking a bit, so reader is decides to pass the time by doodling into the sand. They already have a couple sand-doodles down, when they have the impulsive idea to write Cove's name and draw a heart around it. They planned on doing it quick and scribble it away before Cove arrives.

but to their bad timing, he arrives behind them exactly the moment, reader is drawing the heart around his name.

I'd like to see you write this scenario down and how Cove reacts. It's meant to be a sweet, wholesome and slightly awkward "caught red handed" moment. I hope this prompt seems fun :D

omg that's so CUTE- I just know he'd be so flustered but I also imagine this happens after the "roadtrip" and/or the "growing" moment where he calls u cute <333 bc I think that's the only way he'd be confident enough to react this way hehehe

tags : fluff, step 2, ok for fem/masc/nb readers, yall are LOVESICK

synopsis : cove catches you doodling his name...

cove is... stunned to say the least.

he knew he was taking awhile to come meet you at the beach, having got caught up with helping his dad move some boxes to his car, but he didn't... cove didn't expect to come see you drawing a heart around his name...

he wants to cry. scream. run, but he also wants to collapse n bury himself under the sand because his crush is drawing a heart around his name!

"um.. uh..." oh god maybe he will try to run away to nevada again.

you freeze, your hand that was covering your flushed blissed out face now covers your embarrassment.

deciding that this can't get any worse, you play it off. "h-hi cove.. I was waiting for you." fuck your voice cracked.

cove doesn't respond. he can't, his head is spinning, and all his blood has rushed to his face.

taking a deep breath, snapping out of his thoughts as you call out his name again and tug on his shorts.

"cove? are you uh, are you okay?" you smile awkwardly, "still breathing, right?"

he nods, and before you can say anything else cove crouches next to you.

your breath hitches. he's so close...

while you're busy admiring the way the breeze makes his hair flutter around his face and how the sun shows every shade of blue in coves eyes...

"t-there..." cove looks away, hiding his own face this time but it's fruitless since you've already noticed.

you look back at your doodle, and next to it is your name in a lopsided heart, one of the edges over lapping the heart you drew and the point that connects both sides of the heart leaves a lot to be desired.

but it's overwhelmingly cove, and it has your heart pounding all the same...

"you.." you run a hand down your face, covering your mouth with your fingers. "you're so cute..."

cue internal screaming.

cove feels some of the blood returning to other areas of his body, and with a bit of clarity, he reaches for your hand with trembling fingers.

looking at you with a wobbly smile, he intertwines your fingers with his. "so uh... wanna surf? I brought my other board..."

[see-arcane]

Ok here goes

The Red Book 📕

Unknown and Terrible 🌑⚰️

Long Night Drive 🚙 (if I ever travel again to the USA I am doing so again why are night roadtrips so eerie there what happened)

The Harker Records 🖤 🖋️

Death's Dogs 🐕☠️

The M.A.D Gods 😤

Bloody Anniversary 💒

Lady Luna Blue 🔵

The Red Book 📕: A collection of some more explicitly saucy supernatural works. I tend to kind of tiptoe around any direct sexual/erotic aspects in things I write, so this would be more like a writing exercise than anything else, just to see how I can rework (disdainful literati voice) ~smut~ into something meatier ha ha than just a one-and-done indulgence shot. I don't see this one being put together anytime soon, as, again, I'm still prone to side-stepping outright raunchiness versus innuendo. But we'll see what happens.

Unknown and Terrible 🌑⚰️: Short version? Jonathan Harker winds up as the new Dracula following a very bloody climax in Transylvania. He uses Scholomance magic to pull Francis' reincarnation bullshit out through his nose, brings Mina back as a new soul, and tries to get her back. It is very much about me being a petty prick and proving Jonathan and Mina = The Better Romance and the Better Tragic Vampire Lovers. Choke on it, Francis.

Long Night Drive 🚙: This one fittingly only seems to haunt me when I'm driving after dark on empty roads. The premise being a sort of liminal What If? What if someone started a long drive at night and neither the road or the night ever ended? What if the last wrong turn turned them off of Earth's road map and onto Someplace Else's? Ideally this would only hit the driver on a night of Importance. One of those 'things are crossing over' nights--and they crossed over in the wrong direction. Uh oh.

The Harker Records 🖤 🖋️: Oh, but this one gives me brain itches. It's hazy at the edges, but it'd be a sort of fusion between anthology and purposeful/linked Big Narrative. Basically, the Harkers and their friends start becoming unofficial monster hunters/recorders/aides. I always love when paranormal stories have it work out so that if you're stamped once by the uncanny, the uncanny continues to gravitate toward you. I'd like to see them interact with myriad eerie happenings across public domain horrors together. Peak couple's activity <3

Death's Dogs 🐕☠️: An examination of how Death has an abundance of dogs with various tasks bred into them. And how Dracula maybe crossed the paths of more than one spectral hound during his English holiday.

The M.A.D Gods 😤: Augh, it's gathered so much dust, BUT I STILL LOVE IT AND MY WEIRD NUCLEAR NEON YELLOW PANTHEON SO MUCH. The gist is that 1) The Universe was made by one entity basically ejecting the bulk of Its body mass away so Matter could happen and flourish 2) That shit's tiring 3) The Atomic God (named because It is responsible for every atom in the universe) closes Earth around it like shell/blanket for an eons-long nap 4) It creates two guard-gods, Maker and Breaker, to keep any cosmic horror jerks out of the neighborhood--It ditched them to make the known universe so It could have some peace, finally. 5) Hijinks ensue as Maker and Breaker dutifully chokeslam any Lovecraftian interlopers out of the galaxy and spend their free time watching humanity fuck shit up

Bloody Anniversary 💒: An unexpected meetup of various couples in various states of actually being in love, each celebrating their anniversary. One of these couples is older than they seem. And maybe not celebrating the anniversary anyone would expect.

Lady Luna Blue 🔵: Started out as alternative what-if for who the Pretty Girl in Piccadilly might be. She could still go that route, but I think my imagination has long since run off with her into more original territory. Lady Luna Blue is her professional name; at least as Victorian era mediums and mystics go. In-between card readings and seances, she catches the attention of something with much more supernatural weight than she's prepared for. And it happily takes advantage when she invites any 'wandering spirits' in.

[found-wings]

fit would have the Worst time traveling with resident Sillies incorporated (codebreakers) because its physically impossible for the two of them to adventure without the 15 stops they make along the way like omg. rewatching The codebreakers vod (july 13th one) and oh my god it takes them like triple the amount of time to get to the location on the map because of how often they find random structures to explore. (bonus is phil stopping to look at a tree tallulah likes and etoiles making fun of him for being hyped at wood before realizing the wood was pretty and taking some LMAO) and the only reason they skipped some structures- was bc phil needed to go to sleep soon 😭😭

with how fit (literally in canon too) is Very used to reeling phil back in when he gets distracted, I can't imagine this man having to deal with TWO OF EM with adventuring with codebreakers and etoiles who will see any structure that isn't garbage and stop the boat to go there with everyone since he doesn't explore with others often 😭) and with how they adventure for hours at a time ???? (not even including phils 2 hour sunbird chase from the recent streams. . .)

like quite literally in lore, 100% the only way for fit to quit the adventure which clearly isn't going anywhere without just straight up leaving (or praying someone messages him and gives him an excuse from these mfs who can't stay on topic for shit) would be to hope that they get a boring massive ocean and phil falls asleep on the ride which gives them an excuse to head back home, or for a code to sweep by at spawn and get messages in the chat which means etoiles would have to warp there 🙏🙏 other then that, he'll def be stuck with the sidequest lovers over here with no hope of seeing their destination before sundown (especially with how fit leaves earlier then everyone else on streams) - 💿

GOD I LOVE THESE THREE AND THEIR DYNAMIC SO MUCH RAAAH

Thank you Fit for who would somehow probably ( barely ) have so much patience with these two sillies that are both equally as all over the place sometimes 🙏🙏

Etoiles 100% makes Phils wandering off even worse, they are just. all over the place if they notice anything barely interesting - Phil seeing something shiny and Etoiles tagging along for the hopes of a good dungeon maybe, disappearing from Fits sight within seconds AJAJAJ

Also the thought of Phil falling asleep while traveling through a giant, albeit boring ocean is <333 unless it‘s Phil driving the boat. then I‘d be hella concerned WHEEZE

I do adore the thought though of Phil dozing off as he listens to Etoiles and Fit, or the rushing of wind & splashes of waves as his eyes slowly close, staring off at god knows what. This usually ends up in a 50 50 chance at either Phil falling asleep or instantly waking up again if anything of interest flashes through his vision

( this has probably resulted in Phil suddenly jumping up out of his half slumber, pointing aggressively at whatever he saw and going either 'STOP THE BOAT, LOOK!! :D' or just straight up launching himself out of the boat before either of the other two can react. he needs the shiny )

Conclusion : Never go on a roadtrip with the silly Codebreakers, because you‘ll either have to constantly drag them along or quit the trip not even halfway there JAHJA

[scary-monsters]

Heyo, Kat! How are you? Hang in there for the tough work week, sending you all my healing energy!! ❤️💖❤

The Diejoni brainworms have been really worming these days because in my Modern Day au, Johnny is an asshole who gets cut from the Joestar inheritence and now has to find a roommate he can split the rent with so can you imagine if he gets Diego for a roommate?! 😭

He'd be so upset but at the same time Diego would be annoyed with Johnny too because as a former rich boy, he would be so bad with money. And can you imagine the fights they would have if Johnny has a pet rat and Diego has a pet lizard? Johnny's going to accuse the lizard for trying to eat his rat and Diego would blame the rat for nibbling on the furniture. 💀

But they'd have their good days too, especially if Johnny brings home a stray. Then they'd set aside their differences to care for it and once the animosity has died down, Diego would tell Johnny all about dinosaurs! 🥺

Thats all I have, Kat! What do you think? 😄

HELLO PENNY it's always so nice to hear from you 😭 i'm surviving, the holidays are never good for me but that's okay, i persevere anyways 💪🏻 HOW ARE YOU, i hope you're being kind to yourself and doing things you enjoy, would love to hear about any projects you're working on atm 👁️

YAY DIEJONI.. i fell so in love with diejoni this year and you're partly to blame LOL i'm obsessed with the idea of them as roommates bc i just know it'd be such a mess sometimes... they WOULD have arguments about their pets, oh my god, bc both of them would be like "my perfect angel would NEVER do such a thing".. imagine diego accidently scratches up the furniture bc of his unruly nails and he blames the poor rat for it... he's so messy 💀 meanwhile johnny knows that's bullshit bc he makes sure to regularly trim his rat's nails. what do you think they'd name their pets?

UGHHH the thought of them bonding over a stray is SO sweet... that's so real bc i feel like one of the few times diego will set aside his ego is when there's an animal involved.. what if their tiny apartment becomes a mini zoo, they keep taking in these animals and bonding with them LOL. the landlord has to do an inspection and diego takes the entire zoo for a roadtrip while johnny stays home and deals with any suspicions the landlord has 😭💀 SO CUTE but so chaotic.. god i love these two idiots so much 🧡 thank you sm for sharing some thoughts, sorry it took me a bit to answer!! hope the week is good to you!

Fun question: Pick five random champions and take them on a road trip. Do they make it to their destination?

im back from the dead

OKAY This is funny and in order to make it completely random i'll let this league randomizer pick the champions.

So we got: Akali (Oh no) / Gragas / Leona (Mother of the team so far) / Shyvana / Caitlyn.

Okay this is an interesting group and there's more girls i have imagined.

Alright, so, roadtrip. On car. I assume we are talking in a very funny scenario of champions being their clunky selves but with a nowdays car wich is already amusing.

Leona drives clearly, she's responsible, she's a bit of a mom. She has the playful snarkyness and the responsability.

Gragas and Caitlyn argued about getting the copilot seat but Leona ended up picking Gragas.

Gragas IS a passanger princess. He would listen to the gossip, talk gossip about freljordian comrades. He would point to take the left path and then get it wrong so they have to pull back. He eats the snackies and then fall asleep for the 80% of the trip. A true king in my eyes.

Akali is of course the child of married couple in this situation. The 'are we there yet?' 'Im hungry'. Shyvana would try to be modest, not participating much in conversation and trying not to be a bother. Caitlyn is the polite towards the rest of them but Akali rubs her the wrong way wich might make her increase her voice tone. Basically sisters coded. Shyvana being the old sister coded, Caitlyn the middle sister coded and Akali the younger sister coded.

Akali and Caitlyn would fight cause they both want the window seats but Shyvana asked for one of them, eventually she politely agrees to sit on the middle of Akali and Caitlyn.

Here's a small conversation im thinking about:

Akali: God, how long until we get there? We've been here for ages. Leona: I know, i know, but we are almost there. Caitlyn: Leona please slow down, the signs stated a velocity and we are above it. Leona: Oh, right, sorry! Akali: Do not listen to her! There's literally no one on the road we can speed up, it wont do harm! Caitlyn: God you're not only absolutely annoying but you also dont respect authority.

Akali: Fuck your authority you dont even respect it how am i supossed to take you seriously? Caitlyn: Me?! Akali: Because your thing with Vi was surely super legal... Caitlyn, visibly flustered: That's not-!

Gragas, quickly turning his head back to the backseats: Wait what's between you and Vi? I think i fell asleep during the explaination of that.

Leona: Akali, please be respectful, authority and legality are a bit flimsy in Runeterra and there's nothing bad with wanting to endorse it...

Akali: Well, you could say that, assuming your thing with Diana was also not forbidden and that you were'nt breaking any type of rule...? Gragas, quickly turning to Leona: Diana and you what? Im so lost.

Leona, gritting her teeth: How about we all stop talking for a bit and i put some music on the radio... Akali, turning to Shyvana: Arent YOU going to say anything?

Shyvana, on a low voice: Well... I guess what matters is that we arrive safely, i dont mind lowering the speed... Caitlyn: See! She's in my side! Your argumentation is weak!

Akali: Of course i asked damn Jarvan IV girlfriend...

Shyvana, flustered: Prince Jarvan and I's relationship is entirely professional...

Akali: Professional my ass! Gragas: HOLD UP. Please summarize every single ship is happening here cause im not understanding.

Caitlyn: ...whats a ship?

Gragas: Oh like... when two people have like... romantic tension and you think they're a couple...?

Shyvana: Gragas? Could you pass me some chips?

Gragas, handing Shyv a bag of chips.

Shyvana: Oh these are good, what flavour are they?

Gragas, looking at the back of the package: Mustard. Braum recomended me these he said they tasted great.

Shyvana: ...

Caitlyn: What?

Shyvana: Im allergic. Allergic to mustard.

Leona, quickly stopping the car and putting her shield up: COVER UP, QUICK!

Shyvana transforms into a dragon, breaking the car from the inside as she becomes bigger in size.

So... To answer the question: Would they make it to their destination?

Yes. Most likely. Not by car anymore though.

[zukkaoru]

WALKS IN

hi!!! for the ask game uuhm nathaniel, nikolai, shibusawa, and uuuh fuck it. kajii too

whooo okay here we go!!

nathaniel

first impression:

oh i just know everyone hates this guy because everyone hates the scarlet letter. they don't know about the house of the seven gables :(

impression now:

favorite moment:

probably the scene with him and margaret on the zelda, right before kajii comes in

idea for a story:

i so badly want to write a nikonathan soulmate au someday. i don't even know what the specifics would be but can you imagine them discovering the other is their soulmate?? nathaniel would Hate It and nikolai would immediately become the most obnoxious version of himself

unpopular opinion:

every opinion on nathaniel is an unpopular one sdfghjhk but i kind of wish they'd approached his character differently? bc like.. idk there's so much more to the irl hawthorne than "that guy who wrote that one book about adultery that everyone had to read in high school and hated" but perhaps i am just biased bc i liked thotsg so much and would have rather his character be inspired by that book even though no one knows about that one

favorite relationship:

nikonathan is fun. fyothaniel compels me. and i like the dynamic between him and margaret platonically

favorite headcanon:

king james version is his go-to bible translation. he is forever and always a kjv girlie🙏 also he has a younger sister named phoebe

nikolai

first impression:

who is this clown and why do we ship him with fyodor

impression now:

ohh there is so much more to you than you will ever let anyone see

favorite moment:

when dazai gives him fyodor's arm and for the first time since we were introduced to him, he hesitates

idea for a story:

i think fyolai roadtrip au is the only one i have that would be more centered around nikolai, which i'm pretty sure i already told you about fdgfhgjhkj but basically no-powers au where nikolai drags fyodor on a roadtrip with the intention to kill him and then slowly spirals when he realizes he can't bring himself to do it

unpopular opinion:

i think he's kinder than a lot of people think he is, but like.. he chooses not to be. i think his instincts are kinder than his actions. does that make any sense? like i don't think he's a Good person by any means but i do think there is a part of him that is instinctually kind, which he works to smother because caring about people is not freeing

favorite relationship:

once again, nikonathan is fun. and i do love fyolai too. his dynamic with sigma is also really interesting but i wouldn't necessarily say i Ship them

favorite headcanon:

he has a very complicated relationship with his culture/hometown/etc. because he feels like it ties him down somewhere, thus trapping him. but he also can't just. let go of it completely. some part of him will always miss the place where he grew up even if he tells himself he doesn't care. and he hates it so much but no matter how hard he tries, he cannot free himself.

-

shibusawa

first impression:

who is this

impression now:

what if they let him be a dragon living in a castle forever. and he just promised really hard to be chill. and they let him be. and there was just a dragon in yokohama. would that be sick or what

favorite moment:

dragon

idea for a story:

i don't actually think i have any ideas with him even in it sfdgfhgjh uhhh best i got is the one universe in snowfall where he's the god of death and gin tries to bargain with him to bring aku back and he's like :/ sorry. no can do. the laws of reality forbid it. that would be kinda cool to expand upon

unpopular opinion:

what if they just let him be a dragon livinbnbgf

favorite relationship:

idk whatever was going on with him and fyodor in dead apple was like doomed toxic yuri to me so let's go with that

favorite headcanon:

um. he likes it when people braid his hair

-

kajii

first impression:

this guy is insane (concerned)

impression now:

this guy is insane (affectionate)

favorite moment:

THE LEMON RUNWAY actually wait no it's when he says he's only part of the port mafia bc mori provides financial support for his science experiments. he's got his priorities straight

idea for a story:

he and ranpo hook up at some point pre-canon, after dazai joins the ada. this is because ranpo comes to the (correct) conclusion that eventually, most of the ada is going to end up sleeping with someone from the port mafia and he doesn't want to be left out. important to note here that both kajii and ranpo are aro(spec) and not particularly interested in an actual relationship. ranpo is dealing with fomo and kajii loves science experiments and they have a great time. and then two years later when this comes to light, yosano is like. ranpo full offense but what the HELL is your taste in men do you only like people who want to skin you alive just to see how you bleed???? and ranpo is like. tbh? yeah

unpopular opinion:

i feel like a lot of people hate him but i think he's such a fun character!! like. his ability is being immune to lemon-shaped explosives?? he shows up every once in a while to throw around lemon bombs. he's a mad scientist. what more could you want

favorite relationship:

i do really think kajii-ranpo hookup would be funny. ultralemon 4ever <3 also corey and i decided kajii and tecchou exchange terrible food combo ideas and make jouno's mental health Worse simply by being friends

favorite headcanon:

he eats lemons like apples. yes. he bites directly into them, peel and all. also alloaro kajii is a vibe

Road Trip Masterlist

dream makes the sounds (that carry me so far away) (ao3) - kaleidoscopeminds luke/calum M, 36k

Summary: Luke's just got to California, on a trip to get away from his life for a while. Calum might be there for the same reason. When a chance meeting pushes them together, Luke might get more out of the four-week road trip than he ever imagined.

Energy Drinks, A Black Cat& Other Signs of Vampirism (ao3) - Headgehog_Louis007 michael/calum, luke/ashton T, 80k

Summary: "What? it's just garlic bread."

"Aren't vampires like.. I mean.. don't they not like garlic?"

A fic in which Michael is a vampire and every trope about vampires is wrong.

fell in love with you in my passenger seat (ao3) - bellawritess michael/luke T, 1k

Summary: “You should have woken me,” Michael grumbles. “What is wrong with you? Do you want us to die?”

“Hey,” Luke says, hurt. “I was being a nice boyfriend. You were clearly tired.”

interlude (ao3) - galacticsugar michael/luke T, 36k

Summary: As Michael positions his camera to capture a photo of the venue marquee, it suddenly hits him that Luke isn’t just a name on the sign. His show is tonight. He’s probably here, right now, somewhere in the venue, or at least nearby, maybe hitting up one of the trendy downtown coffee shops or jogging around the lake.

“Michael?”

…or right behind him. His voice sounds the same.

in the in between (ao3) - galacticsugar luke/calum M, 32k

Summary: “What the fuck is this?”

It’s pretty much Luke’s first full spoken-in-person-sentence to Calum in months.

It’s his first sentence to Calum in months, and he’s yelling it in the middle of his driveway at seven in the morning, while a dog yelps back at him from down the street. It’s perfect.

“I thought you said you wanted iced coffee,” Calum replies defensively, consciously diverting his eyes away from Luke’s face because it’s the only way he can be sure he’s not staring. He needs to act normal, but he can’t remember exactly what acting normal around Luke actually entails. Probably not constantly shifting his eyes around like he’s possessed. He forces his eyes back to Luke’s face before Luke goes off in search of a priest skilled in exorcisms.

in your ocean, i'm sinking (ao3) - toddamyanderson luke/calum T, 11k

Summary: “Okay so, not to sound like a total dick or anything, but what exactly does this have to do with me?” Calum squints a little quizzically as he takes another sip of his latte, then leans forward to match try and Luke’s energy. It’s not as easy as it looks. He moves around a lot.

“I’m asking you along on a road trip. To New York. With me.”

Calum blinks. He doesn’t even have time to process and formulate a response before Luke starts rambling.

it's an emotional kaleidoscope when I face you (ao3) - FayeHunter, lifewasradical michael/luke, calum/ashton T, 33k

Summary: With one last sweep over his apartment, Michael is sure he’s ready to go, or at least as ready as he’s ever going to be. Nothing would ever prepare him for multiple days of nothing but Luke Hemmings.

Or, Michael and Luke broke up a few months ago, but a nonrefundable road trip has them back together for a wonderful ride from New York City to Orlando, Florida.

kissing at the stop signs darling (ao3) - fffearless ot4, luke/ashton T, 7k

Summary: "I think, guys," Ashton says finally, and everyone is all ears. "We need to get away." He gives Luke's knee a quick squeeze. "Let me just get us some more milkshakes."

(Or where the boys hate how boring everything is and take a self-realisation road trip to help sort it all out)

Love me like you did (ao3) - screamtobeheard michael/luke E, 9k

Summary: “You idiot! Where did you go?” Calum shouts immediately. “You know the way you always suspect the worst of me? This time you’re right,” he says. “Oh my god. You’re taking him to warped tour? What did he do?” “He agreed actually,”

After Luke and Michael break up, Michael is miserable. He decides a roadtrip to warped tour could fix things.

No Chance (ao3) - iCheeseYou (EHkook) michael/luke, calum/ashton T, 72k

Summary: So Ashton's going on a road trip with his friend, Calum, and he invited me to tag along. Being the adventurous shit I am, I said yes, but I wouldn't have if I knew that Luke Hemmings was going as well. God, I hate that guy, and the feeling's mutual. Why does that annoying brat have to come along? And Ashton and Calum expect us to be friends? Yeah, right. There's no chance that Luke Hemmings and I, Michael Clifford, are ever going to get along.

Summary: After Luke has the worst summer ever, his boyfriend suggests that they get out of town together and make the best of the summer they have left.

staring at the sunshine (ao3) - toddamyanderson luke/calum T, 19k

Summary: And the way those blue eyes are looking at him now. There’s flashes of that heat from before building in them, which is kind of intense. Calum doesn’t usually get this look from Luke. Only sometimes, when they’re a little drunk or a little high and the rules become fuzzy and looks aren’t meant to matter as much.

Summary: As they’re waiting for their burgers, Calum disappears into one of the souvenir shops and comes out with a penis mug, which he presents to Luke. “’Cause, you know. Sometimes you’re a dick.”

Michael gasps and runs to get one of his own, but comes out with the weird glasses made out of straws instead, then proceeds to bite Ashton when he tries to take them from him.

or, the one where they were all meant to meet each other.

We Are Strange, In Our Worlds (ao3) - fourdrunksluts michael/luke N/R, 84k

Summary: “That’s what I want,” Michael tells him, resting his head on Luke's shoulder as he looks fondly up at the stage. “That’s where I want to be. Everything I’m doing, everything I’ve been through — I just wanna be on a stage, with a loving crowd singing my songs back to me.”

Luke smiles, kissing his forehead and speaking with his lips against Michael's skin. “It’s going to happen. I know it is.”

Summary: 4 strangers, same destination. One road trip, 14 hours max. — “This is going to sound really weird, but do you wanna road trip with me?”

The men stared at Luke weirdly. He shrugged before continuing.

[woahjo]

tbh i'm also really curious about what all your answers might be to all those questions in the ask game if that's okay with you 😆 you have a very interesting and nice perspective (as i also see in your writing) that i am curious and want to know about your thoughts through those asks if that's fine :) (you don't have to if you think it's too much!)

this is SO SWEET!! i don't mind answering them at all!!! i'll try and do most of them, but im gonna pick my fav questions from the list <33 and ill put them below the cut. im so flattered actually that u wanna hear my answers to them what if i blushed...

What did you dream about last night?

OH FUCK i forgot i had this dream until i got halfway through the questions but last night i had a dream that i was at work but i was falling asleep during it. like could not keep my eyes open,.. and my manager messaged me on teams and she was like "we can see you doing nothing" but for some reason i just could not wake myself up. and then when i DID wake myself up in the dream i was like "bro something is wrong why does it feel like im still asleep. wake up!" and then i woke up and realized i was just dreaming. it scared me 😭

What is your favorite color?

i like yellow and orange!!!! but lately i have been on a bit of a light blue kick since this summer!!

Do you feel more connected to the moon or the sun?

this one is cute!! i think i feel more connected to the sun. i'm more comfortable during the day and tend to be in a better mood. plus i really like the way it feels on my skin <3

Have you ever wished on a shooting star?

a few times!!! i've seen some on the rare occasion i went camping, but i never really remember my wish long enough to know if it came true or not lol

What do you enjoy daydreaming about most?

god this is going to sound so corny but lately my fav daydream has been imagining that im winning my first emmy for an animated tv show. idk i just imagine the way it would feel to have my work and dreams recognized, getting to thank my parents and team and shit. corny corny i know but i love imagining it.

Do you believe in guardian angels?

i do, but in a nonreligious way! i won't go too deep into it, but i've had many dreams / experiences that preceded major life events that i can't explain otherwise. even without it, it's nice to think that there is something out there looking out for us. kinda like the universe has us in mind.

What is something (or someone) you’re in love with?

this one is hard!! i haven't been in romantic love with a person ever i don't think (mutually at least), but i am in love with my friends. i really truly believe i met them for a reason and i think i'm the luckiest person because they're in my life. i have so much love for them that i genuinely don't know what to do with it. my other love... and i say it so frequently... is writing and storytelling. it's the greatest love of my life, i know it.

What’s your ideal summer aesthetic?

linen clothes and dresses and flowy shorts and humidity and laying on the floor outside. unheated swimming pools, music from a speaker or the tv, friends laying out on towels. exploring cities and sweating and driving to the beach on a whim and sitting on the porch eating lunch. roadtrips along the coast with the windows down. yeah <3

Talk about something exciting or good that happened to you this year.

maybe not this year, but this summer, i spent a month traveling japan with one of my best friends.

Where do you feel most at home?

with my friends!!! always always always with my friends

What is something you own that is important to you? What makes it so important?

writing and creating things and making art!! i genuinely can't stop myself from doing it. i write and make things with the same urgency and feeling as eating or drinking water. i do it before i sleep and when i wake up and even just in my head constantly. it's corny, but it's a part of me and i genuinely can't live without it.

Do you believe dreams have meanings or are they completely random?

i've had some WILD dreams that absolutely have meaning. some of my dreams are totally random, but i think a lot of them are symbolic of things or feelings i'm experiencing. i had one that was so long and frightening and weirdly poetic that there's no way it couldn't have meant something. haven't quite figured it out yet tho LOL

Do you believe in love at first sight?

nope! i've definitely written about love at first sight, but i think that to really LOVE someone, you have to know them. that's one of the best parts about love.

What’s the sweetest thing someone has done for you?

i've spoken about it before but when my dad had a brain bleed in may and was rushed for emergency surgery, my friends (and housemates at the time) emailed all of my professors for me, packed a lunch, packed my car with blankets and tissues, sat with me while i packed a bag with clothes, and drove me six hours one way so that i could be at home with my family. he ended up going into surgery while i was on the drive back home and the housemate driving me held my hand for hours while i waited for news that he was out. i'd never felt more held and loved than i did then and they are some of the kindest things anyone has ever done for me to this day.

What’s your zodiac sign? Do you think you fit the general characteristics of that sign?

i'm a taurus (with a leo moon and leo rising)!! and i absolutely think i fit the characteristics LOL

Are you more of a hopeless romantic or realist?

mmmm i'm not sure! i'd say hopeless romantic if i had to pick one, but not to the point that i don't know how the real world works. i don't like big gestures though, so im not sure if maybe that disqualifies me LOL. i just like the idea of eventually being known and loved for it.

What’s a song that gives off good vibes anytime you listen to it?

hold in, hold on by kid bloom!!!

Have you ever written a love letter?

nope!!!

Name a book you don’t mind reading over and over.

heaven by mieko kawakami. i could read it 800 times and never be sick of it. the lilith's brood trilogy is a close second, though i've only read it once so we'll have to test it. but i LOVE that series.

What do you do to feel at peace?

i write or draw!!! that's typically my first instinct when i need some quiet or some callie time. i feel very calm when i create.

You are a dream, 2023

Well, I just read online that it’s just 4 days until 2024 and I immediately grabbed a laptop to write this down at 12:39AM. 2023….is a different kind of ride. It’s like something out from a book, something beyond my imagination, it’s like a dream. 

All throughout the year, I thought that I manifested too hard in front of the window in our office looking at the sky and SCTEX road. I just claimed everything that I do this year will be successful because I was born in the year of the Rabbit and it did. This was my winning year. 

My year started with me still selling perfumes, got a Valentines surprise from my boyfriend who always tries his best to give me the best. Then, my friend from Toronto came home and we had a hard catch up of everything we missed even though we almost VC each other. As they said, relationships had it’s ups and downs, I went to La Union with my workmates in March but this is when I related to “I’ve been looking sad in all nicest places.” The sunset is too sad for me because my heart is sad and my inner self is sad cause I can’t swim due to monthly red tide. Good news, we chose to fix it, we chose “US” again. 

Summer came in, my family and I had a roadtrip to Ilocos Norte! It’s a 16hrs long drive. If I will reminisce, this is when everything started to become like a dream. We visited Vigan, I saw the magnificent windmills the first time, swam in a beach with strong tides that it can flip move my mom sitting in the coast. Haha! My sisters and I rode an ATV and all of us, including why niece rode a 4x4 truck in Sand dunes! We are all worried about our lives, but I think “You only live once” kept us screaming and enjoying the ride. Oh, I also glided through a desert. How fearless is that!? Then, one of my bucket list was crossed. We stayed in Vitalis Villas. Back in 2019, I wished to bring our family here and there we are. God is so good! We had an amazing 4 days trip that felt forever and a lot of times made me wanna stop time right there. 

Music festival of course, I was there. Almost went home when I felt suffocated but I glad we stayed. It was magical hearing “Kay Tagal Kitang Hinintay” in live. We also surprised our mom on her 63rd birthday where my dad saved all his money just to give her 63,000 pesos and a gold necklace. Ever since I was young, this was my mom’s dream and now she got it at 63. A love like theirs is really my dream kind of love. My dad was always my ideal man. I will never forget how everyone cried when “Until I found you” played as my dad took my mom’s hands to dance. 

My May was like a great episode in a drama. My friend from Regina went home and we have trips planned ahead, sponsored by him. I probably saved the country in my past life to deserve this. We went to my dream county, Japan together with my eldest sister who helped us navigate everything. We will be completely lost without her. I saw the Harry Potter world, Dotonburi and went to Kyoto where everything felt nostalgic. The OST of Kimi no Nawa kept playing on my head the entire time. Finally, the girl who always talked about anime is in her element. After that, we went to Coron. This place is beautiful from up and down. My bf and I strolled the town using a motor and climbed the mountain. The sunset and the view up there will be forever in my core memory. 

Then June came, my birth month and I bought a car named whom I named “Yuki”. It’s from Snow on the Beach of TS because it’s seems impossible but it’s happening. I never thought I would have a car this year but here it is! Another answered prayer with the help of my family. Back here I thought to myself that it may seem impossible to have everything but for this moment, I sure had everything. A complete family, a new job alignment, loving bf, loyal bff’s, car and a healthy work environment. When my bf’s birthday came, I tried to make one of his dream come true, to have a family picture. This was successful thanks to his family’s effort and love for him. I was so happy to see him emotionally happy. 

Another unimaginable happened again this September, my sister and my niece went to New Zealand. Taking them to the airport was one of the saddest good bye of my life. I still remember crying myself to sleep just imagining that they won’t be around everyday in our house. They are my late night movie bud, cravings bud and the family is just not complete without them. God how I miss them even while typing this. Seeing me and MC’s pics on my gallery feels like a good dream. I tried to make myself busy and not think about them too much, but there are just night like this where I want to fly myself to them and time to go faster so they I will see them again. 

When I said, keeping myself busy, I went out a lot with my friends, learned how to bake, took part time jobs and watched the Era’s tour in the cinema. Then, with the support of my work mate turned mentor, TINTER Bean was born. It came from the idea that my bf is a barista and we are thinking of a small business. From here was like in Timelapse and, we had our soft launch at Nov 1 which is a success! On this day, we already had our events and booked events next year, this is another dream Lord! I realized that we have so many people around us who are genuinely happy for us and gave their support in many ways. I am thankful to have them in my life! My December was so busy that I have to find myself a time to breathe. We had a year end party at work, had a sweet anniversary with bf while juggling events and work in between. 

As we head on to 2024, honestly, I am not that much confident that I will do well next year. Probably because many good things happened this year? I don’t wanna be jinxed. Or maybe there is a big worry for my future because I wasn’t able to go to church often this year. That’s it. So Lord, babawi aka sayo this 2024! You never got tired listening and answering my prayers. You will be my center this year and I will give importance to my health. So Joy, have faith okay. There are still many good things planned out for you and no matter what are the challenges, you have people around you that can help you. You are a hustler and goal digger! You are cool and a very blessed girl. 

2024, I AM READY FOR YOU!

A Momentous Break

Lee Felix drabble <3 The MAXIDENT trailer made me do it. They all looked so beautiful so I just wanted to write a very low key, calm oneshot for the universe I imagined that particular gang to be in. I imagine Felix would remain his soft, kind self, just clad in leather and maybe with some vices that aren't permitted to an idol.

I listened to Sunshine, My Universe, Streetlight, you know, chill vibes, lovely vibes.

”Hey. You look like you could use this.”

The first thing that comes to her view is a lit cigarette. The smoke dances upward delicately before vanishing into the cool city wind.

The hand holding the cancer stick, as Y/N’s father had called it, is slender and pale, the skin contrasted beautifully by the black leather sleeve that clad the following arm.

”Hi Felix.”

”Woah, that bad?”

She can’t help the small chuckle that bubbles out at his words.

”Yeah. Boss is on my ass as if I’m the root of every problem.”

”Is Lee Know being difficult again?”

Y/N swats at the smoke to signal what Felix already knows; she hates the stuff. Well, when she’s sober.

”Nah. He’s cool.”

”So the bother-brother isn't working tonight?”

”Right again,” she smiles, leaning back against the concrete stairs, elbows holding her up.

Felix licks his lips, staring at her. The black t-shirt with the bar logo stretches deliciously, showing off her chest and muscled shoulders, her forehead and slender neck are coated with shimmering sweat.

”Bet he’s at the bodega right now.”

”Probably.”

”So, why aren’t you?”

Y/N fixes her tired eyes up to Felix, and his tall, fit frame paired with the freckles and black hair makes her mouth dry. Nothing new there. Better not smoke, it makes the drought in her mouth even worse.

As he leans on the familiar metal railing, Felix feels her gaze and can’t help but move his own around the alley. He wonders if those dumpsters are ever actually emptied, because they’re always bursting with black plastic bags so the lids don’t even close. The familiar graffiti behind the hideous yellow-black wasteland is almost fluorescent as the neon signs and streetlights shine on them.

There are a few ideas in his head about what to answer. Ways to go about it. He could be honest, he could make it cute, make it funny. Attempting a joke wasn’t an option, maybe if he could ask Jisung. Maybe he should say it’s because he wants to spend time with her. That this seems to be the only time the two can be alone without her brother and the rest of the gang. That this is what he looks forward to whenever she has a shift at the bar. Which in turn is the reason he’s always excited when she has to work. Just in case she’d have noticed it when she’d told them her schedule. He had a hard time hiding it.

He could say it right now.

Instead he shrugs.

”Just thought you might like some company.”

Always the cool guy.

”I don’t mind it,” she answers with a soft smile, eyes traveling to the cloudy, dark sky. She needs something to say, quick, before she admits how much she enjoys having him here.

”So much light pollution, I can’t stand it sometimes. I wanna see some stars!”

The pout is adorable.

”We could go on a roadtrip or something, get out of the city,” Felix speaks quickly, barely registering the fact that this could be perceived as asking her out.

But he doesn’t need to worry about that. Y/N’s brain isn’t wired to detect such things from people she’s interested in herself, because God forbid any crush could ever be reciprocated.

”We should!”

Felix’s heart leaps upward and freezes there. But then Y/N's excitement suddenly deflates.

”But with all of us it's such a fuss, you know? Two cars and all…”

Right.

”Oh yeah, right… big fuss.”

There was always some combo of the nine of them wherever they went; six, four, eight, three. Pairs were a thing. There were of course certain people who hung out more than others, or rather it just happened more naturally.

Bangchan, Jisung and Changbin live together so they were often joined at the hip. Seungmin and Jeongin basically run the bodega now that Seungmin’s grandfather was getting too old to look after everything. Lee Know and Y/N are siblings. Hyunjin and Felix and Lee Know hang out a lot. All nine of them dance together, but it’s not uncommon for at least one of them to miss practice.

Felix and Y/N are almost never alone.

Felix sits down with a sigh, back against one of the vertical metal bars. The leather jacket was a good choice, he briefly thinks as the September winds whisk his hair around.

”Big fuss,” his low voice repeats, the ’s’ sizzling in Y/N’s ears.

They really should spend more time like this.

”Maybe…” she mumbles softly while picking herself up to lean on her knees. The stretchy black fabric feels sticky under her elbows because she’d had to crawl under a few tables to help a customer find their wallet. Not her finest moment. ”Maybe we could just go by ourselves?”

It really is more of a question, seeing as she doesn’t know whether Felix would want that or not. Raising the intonation is also a way to mask the vibe as calm and collected, though his answer to what she was suggesting has the potential to make or break the moment and perhaps her whole outlook on their relationship.

But no pressure or anything.

Felix’s breath hitches. Actually no, he inhales the last puffs from his smoke, which get stuck in his throat, which in turn cause him to start coughing like a dying man.

"Hey, hey, breathe!" 

Y/N's open palm collides with Felix's back firmly. 

"Here."

A water bottle is offered and gladly accepted.

The open palm remains, now absentmindedly drawing rivers on the black leather.

"Didn't mean to shock you."

"You didn't," the man croaks, voice as low as ever. "I'd love that."

Could it really be this easy?

They could just go alone because they both want to? Apparently they both want to. They could swipe Lee Know's car and just drive off together, leaving the city only to return with the memory of having seen stars together. Could it really, truly be this easy? To go on a date with one of your best friends?

"I'm free tomorrow," Y/N smiles, cheeks high, the corners of her eyes crinkle.

Before Felix has a chance to answer, the heavy metal door behind them opens as the bottom scratches the concrete that the steps lead up to. Felix keeps his dark-brown eyes on her and half listens as she's commanded back inside by the shrill voice of her boss. Her soft aura captures him, so much so that he doesn't even register the words leaving those beautiful, mesmerizing lips in front of him after the door is closed once again. She smiles, shoulders rising and falling from the small chuckle. All still inaudible to him. 

"Duty calls."

Suddenly they're on his. The lips. It's quick, easy, so familiar. And yet it's completely new. Like a seal on the date they'd just calmly agreed on. The only woman Felix has thought of romantically in years just gave him a kiss. It's an agreement. 

Okay, we're trying this thing together now. Just the two of us.

It felt easy, just like everything else with her does.

Y/N wonders why she's waited so long.

Felix does too. And regrets not being the one to initiate it.

"Okay," Y/N breathes out and locks eyes with the man she just kissed, irises scanning him to look for signs that what she did was not okay. 

There are none.

Instead, as if to check that what just happened actually happened, Felix leans back in, cold hands flying to cradle her head, and she copies his movements. They deepen the agreement as the kiss turns into a more PG13 version of its predecessor.

The street lights from both ends of the alley colour the scene a deep okra, and passing headlights make Felix's freckles bounce in and out of view. 

Y/N can't wait to see everyone's faces when they walk into the bodega together after her shift.

About time. About fucking time. Their voices ring in her head. Felix can see the grins on all seven of those stupid, beloved faces.

"Wanna come in for a drink?" The question is breathless, excited, hopeful.

"I have to tell your brother later. So yeah, I could really use it."

[rhymingtree]

I was planning on reading this on my birthday so it would be like a lil 10k-ish words present but things got in the way. 🙃 never too late to open it though

Athena gives her wakeup calls, too? Damn, I need an Athena in my life, she'd make it so much easier.

Ghost's travel essentials: grenades, flashbangs, ammo, weapons of death and destruction, portable rifles (for more backpack space!), and different bullets for different occasions, because she's always ready for adventure in Paris! 😁😁😁

Ghost's Outfit of the Day: a really heavy coat for Paris rain. Practicality over fashion, even in the City of Love.

I don't know why I'm writing her travel blog, she's about to fuck shit up and I'm writing her a travel blog. Of all things. I should've done one for Wakanda and Medellin too, dang.

Athena had planned your entire trip out for you almost instantly.

And she made her an itinerary too. First stop is a shoddy safehouse that might have rats. Tomorrow, she meets up with her buddy Ollie to fuck shit up and starts giving away infrastructure damage,

No more waiting. You don’t need any more time—

“Shut up.”

“I didn’t say anything, ma’am.”

This was stupidly funny to me. I can imagine the concern in Athena's voice like, my boss is going insane already? we just got here.

You missed Bucky.

Damn, you missed him.

YEAH *gives darke a side eye* I MISS HIM TOO *starts casting an evil curse at darke* BOUT TIME SOMEONE BRINGS YOU TWO BACK TOGETHER HUH

So take him out of the equation. He’ll kill him if you don’t take care of him. He’ll kill him, them, us. All of us will be dead because of you.

Finish it.

You nodded slowly to yourself, throwing away the blanket and shoving it into the backseat before you threw open the door and stepped into the frigid air of the unit.

I love how Hyde Ghost is her main motivatior to get out of bed.

I need a Hyde Ghost to trash talk me into getting out of bed too.

Oh wait I dont need one I already have my ✨crippling fear of failure✨

“I would recommend eating something before we embark, Captain.” 

Athena said self-care comes first and I love that.

It was the city he almost lost Jack in. It was the city where his nightmares almost became reality. It was the city that led them into this downward spiral.

🎶In NEW YoOoOoRk🎵

I love Duke being so in love with Jack.

If I don't meet someone who sees me the way Duke sees Jack, then what the fuck am I even doing here

“It’s too hot all the time. And too loud. And too bright. And…” 

Me every time I wake up in Filipino summer (bonus if the neighbors decided to day drink and they decide to turn the karaoke machine on)

“Fuck me.”

“Later,” Jack said without missing a beat, “It’ll be fun.”

A laugh leaped from Duke’s throat as Jack scooped the rest of his clothes into a bag and he crossed the room to open the door. He jumped as he caught sight of the person on the other side of the door.

T’Challa.

THE LAUGH I LET OUT

WAS HE THERE THE WHOLE TIME

If he was and he heard them through the door 😭😭

HAHAHAHA

I always love it when your characters interact with T'Challa. He's so well written, and they all bounce off each other so well. Ghost especially. But I've forgotten how much T'Challa was influenced by Duke, and them interacting now after what happened in Berlin is so so good

Now they're swapping proverbs with each other, wow

“It’s always darkest before the dawn,” Duke said, continuing down the hall with the king, “We’re just a little stuck in our morning twilight.”

“When she steps foot in the sun again, tell her to bask in the light.”

tryna out-wise each other

Everyone's on a really fun roadtrip aren't they

Bucky and co + one traitorous asshole named Oliver

“Barnes?” Walsh asked, placing a hand on his shoulder with a frown.

GET YOUR SLIMY HAND OFF OF HIM BEFORE I CUT IT OFF AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR-

BOONIE

God I miss Olympus too

I miss it so much I might start rereading TS&TS just to see it again

nooo she's gonna leave shuri

“Did you just have an idea?”

“Yes, yes I did.”

Shuri smirked, wincing as the elevator opened, letting the warm morning sun shine into the box before they stepped out onto Mount Bashenga, “Was it a good one?”

Boone paused, taking a deep breath and taking in the fresh Wakandan air as she looked over the mountains before she followed the princess toward the jet that was waiting for them, “All my ideas are good ideas.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah.”

me to you whenever you start getting ideas

your ideas scare me and boone's should scare shuri too

Your eyes swept over the people surrounding you and you winced each time you made eye contact with one as Athena chirped before giving you the person’s entire backstory.

Another reason I'd love to have an Athena: she has all the tea about literally everybody. My nosy ass would love that.

The back and forth between Hyde Ghost and Ghost is so funny

That's what my brain sounds like in class sometimes and it is exhausting but I'm letting it play out because it's also entertaining

Fuck Novak being an unkillable cockroach. the real cockroach is Armand fuckin' Russo.

No seriously how did he survive getting shot in the chest like that

WAH WHAT

THERE'S

A SECOND VOICE

WHAT

THE JUMPSCARE THAT WAS THE BOLD FONT

DARKE

A SECOND ONE

THERE'S THREE GHOSTS NOW

FATHER SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT AMEN

I love how Athena clocks that pencil like remember they've got a pencil. it's sharpened. it's one of those artsy ones that are really sharp and fine. that can stab you in the eye.

Yes. In and out. Easy peasy lemon—

Don’t get overconfident—

oh no it's like an angel and a devil sitting on her shoulder except all three of them are spawns of hell

You’re wasting bullets. One shot. One kill.

there's no such thing as wasting bullets if they're going into Nazis.

I love how terrifying she looks while killing people in front of Russo.

If you've ever seen that clip from The Last Of Us when Joel is torturing someone and smirking while doing it. That's her vibe. And I love it.

she's so pretty when she tortures people

“Oh, great Hanuman!” M’Baku exclaimed with a mischievous grin, “The great General of Wakanda is scared of a ghost story.”

M'Baku is the best character to ever exist.

In fact every character from Black Panther is the best character to exist.

yaaay they're going on a boat

cruise triiiip

I was so caught up with Ghost having two voices in her head plus her torturing russo that I forgot ollie was after her

go away ollie let her be hot and interrogate people in peace

OHHHH THEY'RE FIGHTING

It's cool to see perseus in action from the receiving end of ghost's attacks

“Damnit, (F/N),” Bucky growled, wrapping his arm around your waist as the two of you fell on your sides and you tried to cradle his head from hitting the floor, “Ow.”

“Sorry. My bad,” you said quickly, pushing away from him with a frown as you looked him over, “Are you okay? Your head? Good?”

“I’m fine,” he croaked, sucking a breath as you brushed hair out of his face, “I’m okay.”

when i said i wanted them to be reunited...

god

they're just

why the fuck am i crying

He looked like he did when you brought him home the first time. Sunken cheeks, dark circles under his eyes. You frowned, brushing away another stray strand of hair.

“You need to sleep,” you said, gently thumbing his jawline.

“You need to come home.”

how dare you

do i need to pay for a premium subscription for them to stay together permanently

You couldn’t just leave him, could you?

You said you wanted to make waves.

Nobody crosses you three times and gets away with it.

Yeah, you don’t need him anymore.

And the Rookie doesn't need any more allies. Give ‘em hell.

these three terrify me

“Move your head a little to the left.”

FUCK YEAH

OH I LOVE THAT CHAPTER

THIS IS EPIC

Why would she kill a fellow Hydra operative? And who were the people she’d massacred in the building?

babes. you are literally stepping on the puzzle pieces. just. fuckin. PUT THEM TOGETHER ALREADY

How had it all gone so awry? Was this some kind of stunt by Walsh? Or had (F/N) really just tried to blow up an entire Parisian block?

Knowing (F/N), he was leaning toward the latter.

arson is ghost's idea of a fun Parisian vacation

like I said, she was gonna cost the city of Paris a lotof taxpayer money, repairs and such

CHAPTER 89: PREY DRIVE

To all my live reactors,

Please, please, please, hide your reactions under a Read More cut. I don’t want any spoilers floating around. 

&

To all my Anonymous Avengers, 

If you want to react in my asks, feel free. However, I won’t be answering any of them until at least Wednesday if they contain spoilers. 

Thank you,

Darke

“And I’ll kill you if you don’t,” you said with a shrug, “So, pick your poison. Him or me.”
