Febuwhump Day 2: Holding Back Tears

pairings: gen

summary: a story about y/n, Redbull’s new second driver, told in non-sequential order

a/n: I love febuwhump and have participated before for other fandoms but this is a first for me — attempting to compete it via smau only. Hopefully I can write a complete story eventually and I will be posting it on its own masterlist in the correct order to read but it’ll be written based on the febuwhump prompt list! @febuwhump

a/n2: based on the 2024 year; sorry checo but you got replaced earlier!

Jude was ecstatic once he found out you were able to come with him to England. Visiting his family already had him in a fantastic mood, but now that he knew you were accompanying him, he was over the moon. He knew how well you got along with his family, so once he let everyone know on the group chat, he confirmed all the affection his family had for you with every new text popped up on the screen. 

✉️ Mum ❤: Yay! That’s such great news! 

✉️ Mum ❤: Tell her I’m making her favorite 

✉️ Hey! What about my favorite?

✉️ Jobe: Oh, please. She’s the apple of mum’s eyes, don’t act like you didn’t knew

✉️ Dad: Tell her that I bought new tea flavors for us to try

✉️ I’m starting to think I’m not the main attraction of this visit, am I?

✉️ Jobe: No way! Seriously?

✉️ Jobe: She’s also my favorite

✉️ Dad: Jobe, donʼt be hurtful towards your brother 

✉️ Mum ❤: Canʼt wait to see you both 💕

✉️ Jobe: Tell her I miss her 

He couldn’t help but smile at his brother’s text. It was obvious he had a crush on you; Jude found it funny since it was a little bit cliché, the little brother having a crush on the older brother’s stunning girlfriend. Oldest joke in the books. It wasn’t a big deal anyways. 

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆

He didn’t consider himself a jealous person. At least, not the type of person that would go as far as considering his own brother a menace to his relationship. It was stupid to even consider it anything more than something to joke about. There wasn't a real chance of something actually happening, not only because he was his brother but also because he was younger than both of you. You considered him a little brother, for the love of God.

Nonetheless, it was hard to ignore how long the hug between you two lasted. His brother seemed to be in heaven while holding you tightly, his head basically on your neck, refusing to let you go after a couple of minutes. It was almost funny to see if it weren’t for the unnerving feeling he was getting from it. He didn’t want to sound crazy, but... Was he smelling your hair?

“It’s so great to finally see you!” You said once Jobe let you go. He looked down at you with the biggest of smiles. “And you got so tall! How did this happen?” You pinched his cheeks, treating him as you always did, with care. 

However, Jude’s brain started to overthink, and he was feeling nauseous. Why was he jealous of his own brother? He was being ridiculous, and he knew that. But some things were hard to avoid, and his jealousy was one of them. He tried to fight it as you all moved to the living room, where his mom had prepared a big tray of snacks. 

“So, did you had a good flight?” His dad asked once you were all sitting on different points of the large sofa. You nodded with a smile, receiving a tiny bowl full of your favorite snacks from Jobe, who only had eyes for you. 

“Thank you, honey!” You said to Jobe, who nodded with a slight blush on his cheeks before getting a bowl of his own. “It wasn’t as terrible as I thought. I actually really liked the food they gave us; it was a tasty chicken sandwich. Right, babe?” Your voice woke him up from his daydreaming, making him sigh with guilt for the direction that his thoughts were taking. “Are you tired?” You asked once he didn’t answer right away, rubbing his leg. 

“No, no. I was just distracted for a little bit. But yes, it was a surprisingly good sandwich. She had to talk me into eating it at first, though.” 

You smiled at him, and he couldn’t help but hold you closer to his frame, suddenly hungry for your touch. He didn’t let his mind slip to any other ridiculous thought about jealousy and his brother’s stupid crush on you. He gave his full attention to one of his dad’s stories, making sure to always have you close to him while listening. He knew you were giving him weird looks because this wasn’t his usual behavior around his family, but he didn’t care, he needed to have you next to him for a moment. 

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ──

Okay, forget about leaving his jealousy thoughts behind. 

Jobe was stepping over an imaginary line that he didn’t know he had marked down since you all entered the kitchen. He was all over your space, but the worst thing was that you didn’t seem to mind. He hugged you by the shoulders, talking about God knows what while giving you the smile he knew very well since he was the one who taught him the smile trick. Was he openly flirting with you, or was he seeing things? Why would he do that in front of him? Why would he do that in general?

When he decided that enough was enough, and that he was going to do something about the situation, Jobe left your side. He saw how you nodded with a tiny smile at whatever he said, still sipping the cup of blueberry tea his dad gave you not too long ago. He saw it as the perfect opportunity to take you away from his brother’s hands. 

“Hello, pretty.” He said once he was near enough to whisper in your ear. You giggled, as every time he startled you, but you immediately turned around to hug him. “I missed you.” Jude returned the hug, closing his eyes once he felt your warmth around him. 

He didn’t know why, but he was feeling the need to be as close as possible to you. Why was he feeling so clingy all of the sudden? 

“Are you okay, babe? You were acting a bit weird earlier.” You said against his neck while rubbing his back distractedly. 

“Yeah, I’m okay.” He wanted to stop there and just enjoy the hug, but his brain had other plans. “Seems like Jobe missed you a lot.” 

“Right?” You were apparently naive about what he meant by it, since you just smiled. “He’s such a sweetheart, I love him a lot.” 

Okay? Ouch, no need to rub it on his face. 

“But you love me more, right?” He bit his lip, surprised by his own stupidity. Why would he ask something like that? What was wrong with him?

“Are you guys ready for dinner?” His mom interrupted whatever dumb thing he was about to say after what just came out of his mouth. 

“Just a minute, Denise.” You didn’t let him go, hugging his waist a little bit tighter while smiling apologetically at her. He saw the expression on your face, and he knew you noticed what was wrong. 

“That’s alright, I’ll hold your plates for a minute, come when you’re ready.” His mother said, finally leaving you alone. It appears like you weren’t the only one who noticed something strange going on. 

“Baby, are you jealous of Jobe?” You asked it in a serious manner, but your eyes were filled with such amusement that he felt like a little kid that just said something very stupid but very funny as well. 

“No…” You knew him very well, so there was no point in lying, but he did it anyway because admitting something so ridiculous was very embarrassing. 

“You’re so adorable.” You laughed after a moment, taking his face in your hands. “Don’t be silly; why would you be jealous of him? He’s like a little brother to me.” 

“I dunno.” He simply answered, knowing he was being irrational. “He has a crush on you…” 

“He’s your brother, Jude.” You giggled again, kissing his lips shortly. “That’s why you’ve been hugging me all night long?”

“Mmmh.” He felt mortified, so he went for the safest option and hugged you again, trying to avoid your face. You were having too much fun with this new information. “Don’t tell anyone.” 

“Of course I won’t.” You whispered back, silently laughing at his antics. He could actually feel how hard you were trying to hold your laugh. “I really love you a lot, silly jealousy included and everything.” 

“But more than you love Jobe, right?” He asked with hope, still refusing to retrieve his head from your neck. 

“Yes, Jude. More than Jobe.” You laughed loudly, not being able to keep it down anymore. 

“What’s up with me?” Jobe said, entering the kitchen, clueless about the subject of your chat. 

“Nothing!” He quickly said, not letting you give away anything that happened seconds ago. If it was bad that you already knew about the jealousy thing, it would be hell if his brother found out. “Dinner’s ready.” 

“Okay? Well, let’s go eat it then? Stop asphyxiating her with your love, she’s got enough of that already.” He knew Jobe was just messing with him, but he had to bite his tongue and resist the urge to say something along the lines of “Well, she’s my girlfriend, not yours!” but that would be too childish, even for him. 

So he just stayed silent and followed his brother into the living room, still giving him annoyed looks that were received with pure confusion. You just rolled your eyes and whispered to him to keep it down. 

Needless to say, even though he acted normally, refusing to let his childish side win, he still felt like he needed to create some space between you and Jobe. He insisted on sitting between both of you, keeping a hand on your tight at all moments, which resulted on you casually laughing or giving him loving looks that just made sense to him, the rest of the family weirdly looking at each other. He made up an excuse after an hour or so, saying you two were so tired from the flight and you needed to head to the hotel, but in reality, he just wanted to cuddle with you and have you all to himself for the rest of the night. You just let him be, still messing around while giving him head scratches to help him fall asleep. 

He guessed that jealousy just turned him into a clingy mess, but you seemed very okay with it, so what was the matter?

So, hypothetically speaking, if someone had never been interested in Sherlock Holmes before but wanted to get into it because of Fawx & Stallion... Where should they start?

Oh my GOD, anon, so upset we didn't see this until now because what a great question and also, our show inspiring someone to go check out Sherlock Holmes?? Deeply upsetting for our characters but SO exciting for us!

Hopefully since you sent this you've just dived in to the stories--because, honestly, that's how both of our writers got into them as kids, and also because despite what roughly 40 contradicting scholars will try to tell you, the timeline is nonsense and Watson's continuity doesn't make sense (we have made our own peace with this and addressed it in-universe because we didn't want to go on deep-dives to decide what puns we were allowed to use for the place we're at in the timeline it's fine, we're fine).

However, just a quick sidebar before we jump into The Stories--if you would rather start with an adaptation than the original ACD stories themselves, there are two options we'd recommend as starting points that are pretty true to canon while remaining engaging in and of themselves:

The Granada TV series with Jeremy Brett and David Burke/Edward Hardwicke: It rules, and most of it's on YouTube! Highly recommend their Solitary Cyclist, Speckled Band, Scandal in Bohemia, and Blue Carbuncle (we may be biased towards the early, David-Burke-Watson entries). These actors and sets are what we picture when we read Holmes.

For an audio adaptation, the 1989 Bert Coules radio adaptation, which you can get for a single credit on Audible in full and has basically the whole canon! Incredible dramatization work that preserves the stories and really deepens the character work in a way that we're obsessed with. Big fans!

If you're liking the vibe of these, you'll probably like the stories themselves! In which case, there are also awesome online book clubs like Letters from Watson that have great communities here on Tumblr (just peruse the tag, it's super fun!), and also over on Discord.

SO. If you're still here and looking for our direction on the stories:

If you just want to start with what is/will be relevant to Fawx & Stallion, we recommend:

Our goal is that our audience doesn't NEED to have read any Sherlock Holmes to understand anything in F&S. We'll hopefully lay things out or give context clues. However, we do have little jokes for the fans, and in season 2, some subtext may be a bit clearer, or have a bit more weight, if you've read some of the stories.

A Study In Scarlet: I know, I know I know I know, Holmes fans, the Utah Mormon stuff, I get it, BUT. Holmes and Watson meet in this one, and it's incredible. The first few chapters of them meeting, starting to live together, going from roommates with a mutual fascination to, through Watson's unintentional insult of Holmes's writing and a fateful invitation to a crime scene, actual friends, are electric. It's a crime (pun intended) that we have so few dramatizations of this in the canon era (we're trying to fix that), we love it so so much. Sacrilege, but, wikipedia the stuff in the middle, enjoy the fantastic meet cute that bookends the thing.

Hound of the Baskervilles: Happening during the events of Fawx & Stallion season 1. I don't need to tell you this one is a banger, we all know this. Less Holmes content than you expect, but a GREAT setting, mood, and roster of suspects, and a thrilling, well-paced mystery with some great Watson.

The Final Problem: Occurs right before the events of season 2, and though you again don't need to have read it, some stuff might hit better if you have, particularly in the back half of the season. High recommend. On the same note, The Beryl Coronet is also mentioned a few times, which is the case right before this one.

Ok, with that out of the way, we highly recommend:

The "Jump Around To Whatever Short Story or Novel Sounds Cool" Approach

This is the move, in my opinion. As I've said before, the timelines are nonsense, you CAN try to get into the weeds of continuity as we have and there is delightful madness to that, but would I recommend it as an intro? No. They're short stories! They're serialized! Treat it like a TBS rerun series at 1 AM and just pick one that is on/sounds cool!

Now, if you want our PREFERENCE? There are different genres of Holmes mysteries, different types of mysteries for different preferences, but we're going to recommend one particular sub-genre of Holmes mysteries that we find particularly fun/unique: The "It's Not Necessarily A Crime Yet But the Vibes Are There" Mystery.

We love these. They're the best. Not depressing or gruesome off the bat, usually starting with some whimsy at Baker Street, these stories usually begin with a client coming to Holmes and the following interaction happens

CLIENT: Um, hi. Honestly it's pretty silly that i'm even here. It's probably just a Weird Thing, you probably don't-- HOLMES: No no no please tell me I love Weird Things. CLIENT: Ok. Well. My boss/guardian/brother/[insert-person-who-has-power-over-them] has been doing this Thing where he [insert extremely weird thing that again, is not a Crime, but the vibes are there]. It's kinda weird. HOLMES: Yeah, super fucking weird. CLIENT: I know! But it's not a crime, so I don't know, you're probably not interested, I'm just a [not rich not male not high class not privileged identity] so there's really no point in checking that out-- HOLMES: No girl (gn), we are DEFINITELY checking that shit out there's a crime in there somewhere and we're gonna find it!

And we're off! If this sounds interesting to you (and it SHOULD), check out: The Solitary Cyclist, The Red Headed League, The Copper Beeches, The Greek Interpreter, The Speckled Band, The Stockbroker's Clerk, The Musgrave Ritual, The Resident Patient, and honestly probably some others we're missing because it's REALLY common.

Other fun Holmes bangers:

Holmes overworks himself and Watson takes him to the country to rest, only to solve ANOTHER FUCKING MYSTERY: The Reigate Squires

The Christmas One!: The Blue Carbuncle

The Dancing Men: I don't have a fun little thing for this one it's just a banger and the Granada Adaptation rules!

The One Where Sherlock Holmes does NOT fall in love with Irene Adler but does get completely owned because 1) he thinks women don't get up early, and 2) he wanted to have a sleepover with Watson: A Scandal in Bohemia

There are a ton, and hopefully you'll find one that you like and just jump in!

100 fics

Today I posted my 100th fic on Ao3!

My first was Pottery; or Function, Purpose and Heart on Mar 11, 2023. It was a retired Dreamling fic with Destruction (who I call Joe) as the main character.

I moved fairly quickly into my Spy x Family crossover series. Anya is so cute, and throwing her in with Dreamling and the Endless family led to a lot of fun shenanigans! (Generally you don't need to know Spy x Family canon to follow these.)

Next I started on my Sandman x Scooby Doo shenanigans! I really like the Scooby Gang, and there are definitely some mysteries to solve surrounding the Endless! (With awesome art by @sab-draws!)

Gaulcienne caught my eye next. Lucienne, my beloved librarian, and the shape-changing dream-fairy? Oh yes! A Quiet Love with Wings has most of my commissioned art, with pieces by @athymelyreply for Sometimes when You Fall, You Fly, @ibrithir-was-here for Fireflies and a Missing Person, and @designtheendless for The Dragon Rider!

King of Night and Prince of Day, for @nathanwonderwolf's wonderful art, has the second highest kudos of all my fics.

Then I invented an OC who is the preteen personification of the consciousness of humanity, aka Social Media. I thought this was pure crack but people liked it and now it's a series! Dinner and Play was created with @carnelianmeluha's food ideas in mind!

My Dreamling works tend to be short and sweet, often prompted by something on tumblr or discord, and are collected as Dreamling vignettes.

I have recently written (but not yet posted) my first honest to god smut, but early dabbles in the craft were mostly crack, like my Helm Fucking Crack series. I'm unreasonably proud of how cracked it is, and thank everyone who enabled me (notably @sleepsonfutons, @windsweptinred, @tickldpnk8, @zzoomacroom, read their fics!).

My obsession with Fuckboi Dream (mind the tags) is ongoing, and included creating a chapter index with notes so I can find things, a series about Murphy's childhood (somebody please read these, they are so cute), and others, fanart as well!

In The Dragon's Tongue, Lucienne takes on Titania! I commissioned @lostelfwriting to write the bdsm continuation of the scene, and she did a fantastic job!

A Reunion in the Dreaming (picnic recreated here) was the first fic in Walking with the Walkers, my series about Rose, Jed and Unity. It features Rose and Ara (Barbie transformed in Life is but a Dream), Rose and Jed meeting their Endless family members, Jed and Gault having adventures, and Unity throwing family parties in the Dreaming (with art by @ilya-halfelven).

Trials of a Shapeshifter in Love (in which Gault tries to surprise Lucienne with a romantic dinner) was my favourite fic from October 2023 -- Femslash weekend (by @sandmanfemslashfans ) and Monsterfucktober (by @seiya-starsniper and friends) made it a really fun month! I also wrote Chantal and Zelda, Johanna and Death, and zombie Lyta (my most angsty fic, I believe).

Just Get Me Off the Damn Mountain was written for designtheendless' contest and omg, I won! It is my most popular fic, at 185 kudos!

I also wrote an OG story for NaNoWriMo! At 23k, Wander Witch is by far my longest story (the next longest is under 9k).

After a bit of being stuck, I got started again by writing continuations of @gabessquishytum's asks! Thank you to Gabe and to all the anons and contributors who allowed me to post their parts of the story!

Asmi, @weirdly-specific-but-ok, argued that he does not have a fandom, so (with permission) I proved him wrong by writing fanfic where he meets Crowley and the Maggot Fam. I love you, Asmi and the maggots!

Heading on an Adventure, the story of Rose and Orpheus' road trip, led to a series of library adventures for Lucienne (often featuring Meowpheus), starting with The Library Cat and continuing in the Lucienne my Beloved series.

I wanted more Lucienne and Walkers content, so I started a side blog, @lucienne-my-beloved, and am open to prompts there! On ao3, the series is called ficlets for lucienne.

Hob Meets the Doctor June 7, 2389 and The line I will not cross and the line I will (Gaulcienne) are my space fics, and I am unreasonably happy about them!

I'm now writing for @augustwritingchallenge! (They got me over 100 in my wips a week or two ago!) I combined prompts so you'll see a fic every 2-5 days in various series and fandoms, including Good Omens (Aug 30) and Dead Boy Detectives (soon).

And my 100th fic! Why are you whispering? a Jed and Rose fic for the late night call prompts. Woohoo!

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported my fandom journey! I'm the least depressed one in my long covid cohort, due to your support and friendship! I cherish every kudo and comment and bookmark and reblog, and the art and fics you all create as well!

[freaky-fan-official]

the new pokemon presents is SO GOOD

(tagging @dead-in-a-damn-ditch look at my thoughts after you've watched the presents boy)

champions goes so hard omfg. put my lads on mobile?? please please please have the whole dex omg. would be the motivation i need to play competitive woah

okay im talking about za now

OH MY GOD LEGENDS ZA

the graphics??? the ui?? it all looks so smooth and clean in a fantastic way. and i love the quality of life improvements we can see (fainting a pokemon in the overworld doesn't immediately despawn them so you can catch them!! very cool)

also the new battle system? the positioning? the aoe attacks? the reach mechanics?? holy shiiiiiiiiiit

and the CHARACTER DESIGNS???????? can i kiss the rivals. rn. and the people feel so real and different from each other which is great!!

az and floette being there is also super sick! im confused about the time period this takes place in (looks modern day? but i thought the legends games were gonna be further back on the timeline? idk) but im so excited to see them here and alive and well

can we talk about the parkour. the movement in this game is SO COOL!!!!!!!! the roof jumping and hovering and such is super fun. i cant wait to maneuver like that

actually this game seems super movement oriented. the way the battles move, the characters move, and the massive area to move in? they definitely had a focus here and im so excited to see what else that entails.

and the starters... chikorita and totodile are some of my absolute favorite starters. if they can make chikorita viable? if i can use my boy totodile? im soooooo set. plus ik tepig gets a lot of hate and i really hope they can recontextualize it for people. megas would go wild for all of them

anyways im so excited holy shit

Dreamy

A Mr Fantastic / Reed Richards Fan Fic

Day 1 of Pedrotober

Masterlist

Day 1 let’s go, this is gonna be a lot of fun I can feel it in my jellies. Time for Reed to take centre stage. We haven’t had many non pixelated Fantastic 4 pictures yet, but I thought the blue above was the best match to the original suits.

Synopsis:- Reed hears cry’s for help & leaps into action.

Word count:- 700

Warnings above what it says in the original master list:- kissing, false cry’s for help, super hero stuff.

Remember these are mainly all short fics peoples. Thanks for the read I hope you all enjoy & I will see you all tomorrow.

As always tags for @alyssamariag @norththelemon for giving us this list.

Mr fantastic hears the screams as he was leaving the grocery store.

“Help help” echoed above him.

He always had his suit on underneath his coat just incase he was needed to spring into action. A reluctant hero who would much rather be known for his science, but now with his new found fame he knew he could try & get his research out there for the world to see. Being a superhero was a blessed curse.

He listened through the noise of the city to hear where your screams of help were coming from & he quickly outstretched his arms, grabbing onto balcony’s to come to your cries of help. Luckily for him it was in the same block. Minimal effort.

“Help me oh god please someone help me”

“I’m on my way” you hear back assuming it’s just in your head this half hearted response.

“I don’t know what to do”

“Stay calm” he says as he finally pushes himself over the top floor & onto your balcony & fully slides open the door. You look startled. What’s mr Fantastic doing in your apartment? You quickly step back, in a state of shock, knowing a baseball bat is in the cupboard behind you.

“Ahhhh Mr Fantastic!” It’s comes out high pitched. You can tell he’s assessing the situation in front of him. Your apartment shows no sign of a struggle or anyone in pain. You move to the side a little as he inspected the room, still in easy reach of the bat in the cupboard. “What are you doing here?”

“I heard cries for help, so I left my groceries downstairs & flung up the building. It was clearly your voice” He says looking you up & down, to check you didn’t have bruises from a potential fit that you might have just gotten over & had no memory about. He smirks at the fact your skirt stops mid thigh.

“Oooooh im sorry” you say, he looks confused. “I’m rehearsing lines for a play I am in, it’s the opening scene where I discover my best friends body” he drops his shoulders & sighs.

“Seriously?”

“Yea seriously” he tuts. “We preview next week so I thought I’d get some more lines perfected”

“Well clearly you’re very convincing as this calls for help made me climb up here to save you” he says.

“Well I’m sorry I wasted your time, but it’s good to know there’s a super hero near by should I ever need one”

He nods & goes to take his leave, noticing the script & a few props on the table, but you then stop him.

“Mr fantastic, as I was someone in distress, you did technically come up here to rescue me… does that mean I get a kiss from the hero?”

He chuckles.

“We’re not all stereotypes” he says but he knows you’ve clocked him looking you up & down.

“Even if it’s just a peck,”but suddenly his hands wrap around your arms. Mr fantastic with his stretchy talents & he pulls you into him & does a Hollywood kiss on you, the one you always see in classic movies. Your foot pops & everything as his tongue invades your mouth. Your cheeks turning redder. Your own hand moving into his hair which fees so soft. Often grey hair feels slightly different to usual hair due to the lack of pigment but this just felt so good.

He spins you back so you are on both your feet & smirks.

“I hope the play goes well” & with that he takes 5 large extended strides back & leaps over the top of your balcony & lowers himself back towards the floor below, his shopping will still be waiting for him. You look down & sigh like your a long lost love who will never see him again.

“Ooooh he was so dreamy” you coo.

This week’s writer spotlight feature is:  TEDewitt! @tedewitt has 43 works posted to AO3 in the Stranger Things fandom and 42 of them are in the Steddie tag!

Our anonymous nominator recommends the following works by @tedewitt:

Let's Search The Skies (For A While)

Orange Cat Wanted

I'd Miss You Even If I'd Never Met You

Ready Or Knot

Wet Ret Rock God

"They are a f**king amazing writer and I need them to know that or else" -- anonymous

They also had this to say about TEDewitt:

"Choosing only five fics was a special kind of torture. TEDewitt is a fantastic writer, perfectly executes incredible ideas, and they deserve the spotlight so much."

Below the cut, TEDewitt answered some questions about their writing process and some of their recommended work!

Why do you write Steddie?

Honestly it was kind of by accident. I am an old fanfiction reader who started with Nsync fanfiction back in the early 2000s (told you I was old). I haven’t written anything in like 20 years and Steddie was so captivating that I was bitten by the bug and can’t stop.

What’s your favorite trope to READ?

I love Modern AUs. Take the Upside Down out of it, take the powers, hell take the 80s out and I’m there. Beyond that, I love fake dating, especially when they make so much sense that everyone’s like, “Oh yeah, this totally works.”

What’s your favorite trope to WRITE?

Omegaverse. I’d never heard of it before this fandom and I’m a little obsessed. I love how you can do whatever you want and it still makes sense. Other than Omegaverse, I’d say Famous AUs. The least we as a fandom can do is let Eddie live his rockstar dream in fandom.

What’s your favorite Steddie fic?

Tuesday’s Gone With The Wind by thisapplepielife I will never forget how I felt the moment I read the last chapter. I have never sobbed like that over a fic. The Gareth themed sequel series got me through the grief of losing my son’s father in a car accident the day after Tuesday’s last chapter was posted. I could never repay thisapplepielife for what their writing has done for me.

Is there a trope you’re excited to explore in a future work but haven’t yet?

Hanahaki is such an intriguing trope, I have an idea for it and just haven’t gotten it written down yet. That and I have a cult themed outsider POV DD fic coming eventually. My problem with writing is that I try to write as many different tropes as I can because I just love them all.

What is your writing process like?

My writing process is a hot mess. I’m so sorry friends, I do not have any tips, tricks or secrets. I’ve had 15k fics that just appear because of a single scene. The closest thing I have to a process is when I’m writing a Movie Or Book AU. With those I will write out the entire plot in bullet points so I can make sure to keep track of the things I want to keep. Then, I start moving things around, deleting, and even flip the plot around entirely. Once I have “the plot” I start building the world and actually write it all out. God help Jordan who has to decipher my notes.

Do you have any writing quirks?

I sneak in pop culture references in every single fic. It could be a line, a street name, a lyric, something. I used to make and sell indie nail polish in my spare time and they were all pop culture themed so now I sneak it in everywhere I can. I honestly need to make a list of all of the references just to see if anyone’s found them all.

Do you prefer posting when you’ve finished writing or on a schedule?

Lately I’ve been doing a lot of fics with deadlines which is honestly so helpful. Having a schedule or a plan that someone else is making me stick to is perfection. If I have to make the plan? Well, I get lost in world building so it’ll be late. Don’t look at my WIPs, I know they aren’t finished and I’m sorry in advance.

Which fic are you most proud of?

This is such a hard question, it’s like picking one of my children. If I have to pick then it’ll have to be Orange Cat Wanted. It started off as a goofy little thing and ended up being a fic all about loss and grief. I have 5.5 chapters written so far and Steve has yet to show up and likely won’t for another chapter or so. Oops.

How did you get the idea for Let's Search The Skies (For A While)?

I heard Anne Hathaway and Nicholas Galitzine were making a movie for The Idea of You. I love both of them so I checked out the book and hated the ending. The same day I made a list of things I wanted to change about the book and thus the fic was brought to life. Jordan was an incredible help during this writing process. If you ever need a cheerleader they are the only choice.

When writing Let's Search The Skies (For A While), what was something you didn’t expect?

I never expected this fic to take over my life. I spent 7 months writing it and now I have art and a physical copy of it in my home. It’s my baby.

What inspired Orange Cat Wanted?

Literally a Facebook post about a woman who wanted to hire an orange cat for her daughter’s birthday party. I still have the link to the article saved which you can read here. It’s wild that one little thing turned into the unfinished fic that it is now.

What was your favorite part to write from I'd Miss You Even If I'd Never Met You?

This fic is an AU of The Wedding Date and I was able to play around in that movie’s world while also writing a Fake Dating trope. The whole thing was so much fun to write. While the movie itself is not very popular, people seem to really resonate with this fic which took me completely by surprise. Honestly, the reaction to the fic was the best part for me. I never saw it coming.

How do/did you feel writing Wet Rat Rock God?

My siblings are notoriously hilarious and because of it, I’ve always been labeled as the not funny one. This fic was my chance to stretch my comedic skills and really try to make people laugh. I had so much fun trying to figure out names and backstories for everyone. It was so hard to keep it to myself as I was writing, because I wanted everyone to enjoy it as much as I did.

What was the most difficult part of writing Ready Or Knot?

You mean besides trying to figure out how to spin the TV show Love is Blind into omegaverse? Honestly keeping everything straight. There were so many moving parts to that fic with the couples swapping back and forth, the multiple dates, and even their scents. I had a little cheat sheet that I used like my bible to keep it all together.

Do you have a favorite scene and/or line from any of your fics?

Hands down it’s a scene in He Drives Me Crazy & I Can’t Help Myself Claudia agrees with him while Wayne comes in with the voice of reason. “Why does the owner of a business need a doctor’s note for a sprained ankle?” “Thank you! I told him that he was being ridiculous. I promise guys I’m fine.” Steve goes to get up and Claudia and Eddie protest. “Guys I’ve gotta pee. Unless you wanna help with that, I think I’ve got it.” “Eddie please don’t.” Dustin calls out as if he’s wounded. “I didn’t do anything!” “You were thinking about it. I know you.” “You’re in luck Dustybun, I’m not a fan of watersports.” “I thought you loved surfing when you were in California.” Claudia chimes in helpfully as Dustin screams and Eddie laughs.

Do you have any upcoming projects or fics you’d like to share/promote?

My Eddie Munson Big Bang fic is coming out in a month and a half called I Wanna Grow Old With You. I’m super pumped for that one. I have the Steve Harrington Big Bang coming up soon too, but mums the words on that one. I’ve got about a million ideas set for this year so keep your eyes out for all the fun stuff. Honestly I’m an open book so if you ask me what’s on the horizon I’ll tell you unless I can’t for BB secrecy reasons.

Outside of these questions, Is there anything YOU would like to add?

Finding the Steddie fandom has completely changed my life. When I first got back into Stranger Things I was fresh out of an abusive relationship and horrifically depressed. Eventually I made my way to the Steddie fandom (after a quick detour in Hellcheer) and met my favorite people in the entire world. I’m lucky enough to have met Jordan in real life and can call them my IRL bestie and not just my online bestie. I talk to Jordan and Erin every single day and I don’t even talk to my own family that much. If you’re someone who’s lurking around in the fandom, take the plunge, get to know your fellow fanatics. It’s the best decision I’ve made.

WAAAAAA sorry my bad for the late reply to this sweet message—I took a small break from Tumblr but!! Yay what a wonderful surprise to return to! I’m very glad to have brought you some happiness from my long ass ramblings in the tags lol!! I felt like it was my duty to admire the hard work that went into making your illustration, and I still think more people should see it!

And especially thank you for taking time to look at my own blog! You really didn’t need too but I’m appreciative of all the support you’ve returned. Seeing the notifications and occasional comments you’ve left on my artworks has brightened my day as well. I enjoy when artists can collectively help uplift each other using positive affirmations. I hope you have a fantastic weekend ahead!! :D

Vanity encounter with the pies part 2

~we left off where blood was at new realm~

Vanity, why don't you practice your god magic because I don't have another god to practice with? Well, you do now prepare yourself. "Vanity decked blood." Oh, what is your jaw made of? Bones, duh. "Blood spitted out a couple of his teeth," really vanity. I just got my teeth healed up. awww is the little god crying, hahaha? "Vanity laughed, then felt a sharp pain in her chest." w-what..... rule one never lose focus oooo I feel a spine "Vanity screamed in pain, pulsing blood away as Vanity healed herself" healing works wonders huh my lady? "Blood vanished behind her, but Vanity was quick as she swong she tripped blood with her tail curb stomping blood to the ground." Had enough, never im just getting started, Vanity."Blood and Vanity fought for hours nonstop till they couldn't move or get up" had......enough blood?....... never "Vanity and blood got up beraly standing" ugh...... "Vanity groaned in pain," bring it blood "as they both swong, they both passed out"

~a few hours went by Vanity woken up from kids playing~

Where am I? "Vanity looked around room.huh?My office blood did a number on you, but you healed fantastically. Where's blood at getting his 20 kids ready for school he'll be in soon it's fine. I'll find him. "Vanity opened the door surprisingly, seeing blood in front of the door. Oh, hi? Is that all you gonna say, my lady? "Vanity blushed a little punching blood shoulder playfully fuck off blood. So, round two, I see then, hahah. I'll show you a round two punk and then bring it on sugar, but my kids come first they go to school, then round two deal? Deal. Ok, kids' school now, "blood winked at Vanity as he walked downstairs." See you for round two, Vanity, hahaha. "Vanity chuckled, cracking her claws. " I'll be waiting

Mod pie: my apologies blood is a odd one he fucks with anyone who can handle is love even though it's odd love blood loves everything but he doesn't know how to show the right love so he fucks with anyone who can handle it

FIC REC WEEK 50 – ENDGAME

AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: JenTheSweetie

JenTheSweetie is such a fantastic writer, in so many aspects. Their grasp of each and every one of the Marvel characters is impeccable, I swear I can hear every line of dialogue in their voices. And the way they can just write anything – fluff, smut, angst, and all with the same level of perfection – is super impressive to me. I love their fics so much, and aside from the ones I'm recommending today, you should just go and read their entire AO3 catalogue, because everything on there is amazing.

Here's some of their work that I think you should check out:

4 out of 5 dentists recommend

Pairing: Steve/Tony Rating: T Words: 1,994 Tags: Fluff, Miscommunication, Relationship Talks

Summary: Tony noticed the toothbrush on a Wednesday, and that was when everything went to hell.

Reasons why I love it: I love how everyone Tony talks to about the toothbrush is so used to his antics that they have perfected their way of averting a Stark-patented meltdown, it's fantastic. Morgan especially made me smile, she's such a badass. And Steve and Tony's conversation at the end is pure perfection. I love everything about this fic, and I bet you will too!

Another Place

Pairing: Steve/Tony Rating: M Words: 30,475 Tags: Falling in Love, Misunderstandings, Canon Divergence

Summary: Tony’s a smart guy, and he’s pretty sure he knows how the story ends.Tony survives the battle with Thanos, deals with fallout, and might be kinda, sorta dating Steve Rogers.

Reasons why I love it: Everything about this fic just blew my mind with how good it is. I love the how and why of this alternate reality, all of the discussions of the socio-political problems after the reverse-blip and seeing what the whole mess with Quentin Beck looks like when Tony is involved. And of course, both Tony's relationship with Pepper falling to pieces and the start of his life with Steve are equally emotional. I love this fic so much, and if you haven't yet, you are definitely missing out!

special dispensation

Pairing: Steve/Tony Rating: T Words: 673 Tags: Everybody Lives, Time Travel, Birthdays

Summary: On the one hand, they’d all agreed that the quantum time machine was a dangerous technological advancement, only to be used under the most dire of circumstances. But on the other hand, it was Steve’s birthday.

Reasons why I love it: Oh my god, this is so funny, I can't. Tony would absolutely do that, holy shit, what a genius idea. And the reactions of all the other Avengers are fricking hilarious. This fic is amazing, and you should definitely read it!

And Time Can Do So Much

Pairing: Steve/Tony, Steve/Peggy Rating: M Words: 11,155 Tags: Fix-It, Quantum Realm, Failing Marriage

Summary: "I really shouldn’t be talking to a figment of my imagination,” Steve said. “Sam would be reading me the riot act. I can hear him now. Therapy works wonders, you know.” “Sounds like Wilson,” Tony agreed. “And therapy does work wonders. You might want to look into it, once it becomes a thing in a couple of years.” “I’ll keep that in mind,” Steve said. -- A few years after Steve moved permanently back in time, he started having conversations with Tony again.

Reasons why I love it: Holy shit, this concept is brilliant. I love how it approaches the consequences of Steve time traveling back to the past and the strain that his knowledge of the future puts on his relationship with Peggy. And every single dialogue between Steve and Tony is pure gold, I love it so much. Definitely go and check this one out if you haven't, it's an absolute must-read.

dress code

Pairing: Gen Rating: G Words: 1,301 Tags: Captain America Sam, Uniforms, Fluff and Banter

Summary: Bucky, to absolutely no one’s surprise, had Opinions on Sam’s new outfit. “No,” Bucky said, scrolling through the options. “No. Oh my god, no. Hey, quick question. Are you trying to make bad guys afraid of you or are you hoping they’ll laugh themselves into submission?” “You can go fuck yourself,” Sam said, snatching his laptop back, but the thing was that Sam kind of agreed with him.Sam decides to consult the expert.

Reasons why I love it: This is such a sweet moment, and one I wish we could have gotten in the MCU. I really loved Falcon and the Winter Soldier and how it addressed all the struggles Sam has with accepting the Captain America identity, and I've always wondered what it would've been like if Steve had still been alive while it was going on. This fic is wonderful, and you should definitely read it.

[a-lucha-brother]

Oh boy, oh boy, let's talk about AEW showing that All In footage. Daddy's gotta eat!

So firstly, I think the reactions online to this have been quite frankly, and to absolutely nobodies surprise, fucking ridiculous and infested with braindead morons (welcome to wrestling in 2024)

And again, to absolutely nobodies surprise, people have completely missed the point (and how cleverly AEW took advantage of the situation to further its ongoing storylines to produce a brilliant penultimate episode of Dynamite) of why it was even done in the first place.

Because for some bizarre reason, people seem to think CM Punk is beyond criticism and revere him to be some all-knowing all-powerful demi-god of infinite credibility and power, which I personally have never bought into (I've been watching wrestling since 1994 so I've been here before, during and after Punks peak) and quite frankly as far as Punk is concerned, never seen the appeal.

For me, I've always seen this as AEW taking an obvious opportunity being presented before them to fit in what I've been assuming for a long time now, a storylined reason/way to open the door for Jack Perry to come back to AEW as not only a MASSIVE heel, but to join The Elite and become THE heel of AEW (I can fantasy book so much shit from this you need only ask).

My case and point of evidence: the fact they specifically make mention of Jack Perry and his current Scapegoat gimmick on MULTIPLE occasions. He's essentially the focal point on the entire spot. CM Punks face isn't even shown, nor is his name mentioned. AEW needed as mentioned before, a really good throughline for Jack to make a return (interfere at Dynasty to help Nicholas and Matthew win?), to create a nuclear build for the tag match at Dynasty between the Bucks and FTR, to create massive babyface momentum for FTR (again, a perfect opportunity since they're friends with Phil).

And think about it, with the promo FTR cut in the ring after, with the Kaz/Pac/FTR/Bucks clash later in the show and all round how the entire production moves around the moment - EVERYONE was in on this and EVERYONE was in tandem and in agreement with how to proceed with using this.

People want to keep pointing out Tony Schiavones reaction immediately after it. Yes, he's gonna be uncomfortable even if he's in on it all, it was a very uncomfortable situation to relive, but how everyone just moves on from it (exactly like what the whole point of FTRs promo was), he's totally fine and chill about it all.

I thought this entire segment and situation was pretty fucking ingenious and did an absolutely fantastic job of create a rocket-fueled build to the Bucks/FTR tag match at Dynasty.

If you have any issues with this, then sorry to say, bud, that's a YOU problem and you may need to grow up a bit, cause everyone else is totally fine with this and using it to make good business with and are all in total consent with each other about it (I'd even go as far as to say that even Punk is in on this too).

So with that, I'm spent, and I'll bid you adieu.

Writing share tag~

Thank you @topazadine for the tag!

I've realized that I've been sharing some rather sad snippets of "Him and Me - Bound by Fate", so here a happier one.

~~~

I hear the squeaking of the wardrobe and the moving of clothes. But my gaze never wanders away from my sketch until I hear footsteps approaching.

“What are you drawing?” he asks curiously. I point out into the street, to the beautiful blue sky and the sun, which is slowly bringing the world back to life with its radiance.

“May I see?”

My heart pounds loudly as these unexpected words come out of his mouth. He wants to see my pictures?

Has he forgotten the last time he showed someone his pictures?

That's right. Grandma didn't like them and tore them all up. She flushed them down the toilet.

He leans against the wall and looks at me in silence. He's dressed in a black hoody and dark ripped jeans. “May I?” he asks again, softer this time. I press the drawing against my chest. I'm afraid to show him, but, maybe, maybe, he wouldn't react negatively. Maybe he would like it. Oh God, and what if he doesn't?

“It's just sketches. Not a real drawing.” I explain in a shaky voice, without looking at him. If I looked up, he would see the pathetic hope in my eyes. The hope of perhaps being accepted after all.

“Sketches are the skeleton of a drawing. I don't mind seeing it. Of course I won't force you to,” he says with tenderness, as if he means every word.

Don't you dare.

But I want to dare.

With trembling fingers, I hand him the sketch. He takes it with a small “thank you”. I feel the knot in my stomach. My hand cramps and the urge to rip the notebook out of his hand again grows stronger and stronger, but I hold back. The worst thing that could happen is that he tears it. I would be used to that. But the silence becomes suffocating.

I hold out my hand when he suddenly says, “That's beautiful.”

Don't cry. Don't cry. Don't cry.

“Really?” why do I sound so fucking pathetic? “Are you kidding me? I don't know anything about art, but…” He keeps flipping pages. I can really see his eyes widen slightly as he looks at my other drawing. “These are fantastic, Leon.”

A shaky laugh escapes my lips. “Really?” I ask again. Kilian nods. “Really. No wonder you became an art teacher, you were born for it.”

Oh God, I think I'm going to cry.

“Wait, wait. I-I have drawings that are finished, too. Wait!” I trip over my own feet as I rush to the boxes I haven't even unpacked yet. I kneel to the floor and start rummaging while Kilian sits down next to me. My hands shake as I pull out old pictures and carefully spread them out on the floor.

He's acting like a child.

Because I was never allowed to be one.

“Holy shit.” Kilian says with a light laugh as he picks up a one of them. It's a drawing of the view from the window of my old apartment before I moved in with Kilian. I lean towards him and start explaining energetically.

“I drew this on the first morning in my new, now old, apartment. It was early in the morning, as you can see from the colors. I was so excited and shaky that I drew the sunrise to calm myself down.” I don't even look at his reaction and continue to rummage. Like a child, I present him with every single one of my drawings.

~~~

Tagging with no pressure @theink-stainedfolk , @finickyfelix , @frostedlemonwriter , @katenewmanwrites and open tag~

Jin POV

My door to my room slams open as I push Joanne in

Her lips are attached to mine and she goes in willingly.

She starts unbuttoning my shirt as I kick the door closed

I'm so horny and drunk

My erection is pushing against my pants and I need relief

I need to be in her

I pull her skirt down and she steps out of it

Fuck she has no panties on

She gets my shirt off and I push her against the wall.

She's wearing this delicate lace see through crop tank top

I grab the top of the shirt in the middle and rip it down the center

It tears easily in my hand

"Fuck Jin", she moans

"I'll buy you another one and a new bra too", I say as I pull the bra and hear the satisfying snap of the clasps breaking

Her hands undo my belt and she finally gets my pants and boxers down

I pick her up and hold her against the wall

I'm right there by her pussy but still I ask, "Are you sure?"

We're both so drunk but I still want to make sure she wants it.

"Yes Jin, fuck me now", she cries

God she's so hot

I thrust up into her soaking wet pussy and I yell out from the instant pleasure.

"Fuck yes, Jin. More"

I start moving and her moans drive me to go harder and faster

She's so tight, it feels fantastic

I've never had sex with her before and so far it's one of the best I've had

"Jin! Jin!", she screams

I feel her pussy clench my cock as she cums

God, she's fucking beautiful when she orgasms

I groan at the surprising feeling of how good it is

It's because she's so tight that it feels like this

I move her from the wall and throw her on my bed

She lands on her back and immediately spreads her legs open for me

She's fucking amazing

I move closer to her but instead of driving my cock in her, I attach my tongue to her pussy

"Fuck"

I gasp and moan from her taste

She's so good

The best I've ever tasted

I swirl my tongue around and lick her everywhere.

Her hips thrust up into my face, while she screams

I love it

No girl has ever been so into me eating her out

I move my tongue to her clit and play with her

He hand goes in my hair and pulls, while she cries out, "Fuck Jin. Your tongue...iii....is amazing"

I moan from the hair pulling and her words

When I suck on her clit, she yells, "Jin! I'm g...gonna cum"

Good, I want that

I suck harder and she cums

I move my tongue around her pussy tasting her cum

Fuck, she tastes amazing

"Jo, princess, you taste fucking incredible", I groan

She moans and asks, "Don't stop Jin, don't stop"

She's begging me for more and of course I'll give her more.

But I want to tease her a little

"Don't stop?", I question, licking her more

"No"

"Why Jo?"

"Because I want your tongue on me. I love you licking me. I want to fuck your face and cum in your mouth", she cries, completely lost to the pleasure

Fuck she's saying everything I want her to and getting me so much more horny

"If I tongue fuck you, will you cum? I love how you taste and I want more"

"Yes Jin. You can have whatever you want. Just don't stop"

"Ok", I say then rapidly move my tongue on her pussy

Her hips thrust up, pushing her pussy more in my mouth

Fuck, I love it

I didn't think I'd love it as much as I do

I've never enjoyed eating a girl out this much before

Just the feel of her pussy on my tongue, drives me crazy

"Ahhh Jin oh my god, Seokjin!"

Fuck, hearing her scream my full name is such a turn on

I slip my tongue inside her pussy and she screams loudly, tightening on my tongue like she did on my cock

I moan and she orgasms, her cum covering my tongue, tasting so fucking good

After her orgasm, she sits up and pushes me on my back

She climbs on top of me and slams her pussy on my cock

The feel of me pushing through her, makes me cry out

She starts moving up and down rapidly, fucking me hard

I watch in awe at her perfect body riding me

Her breasts are bouncing, sweat slicking her body, hands holding her hair back and mouth biting her lip as she looks right at me

I didn't know how incredibly sexy she is

Or how good she is at sex

The way she moves and how pleasurable she's making everything feel blows my mind

"Touch me Jin", she whispers

My hands move on their own one on her hip and the other on her waist

Her skin is so soft and smooth

And hot and sweaty

"You like it Jinnie?", she teases

I nod my head quickly

Is she kidding?

I love it

"I want you to cum baby"

God I love hearing her call me baby

It makes me happy

"Not yet Jo. I want you to cum again. I love feeling you when you do. I love watching you"

"Or really?", she smirks

"Yeah", I smirk back and continue,

"Watching you shake, hearing you scream my name, feeling you tighten on my cock drives me crazy and turns me on so much. You're fucking beautiful when you cum"

Her eyes cloud over with lust and want as she continues to move

She wants to cum

"You want it Jo?"

She bites her lip and nods

"Then cum princess. I feel you want it."

She nods and moans

"C'mon Jo. I want you to cum on my cock so badly. Please, do it for me" I beg

As soon as I stop speaking, her body shakes as she explodes on me, screaming my name

And it feels phenomenal

I feel myself getting closer but I still don't want to yet

I don't know what's gotten into me, but I just want to make her cum as much as I can.

So while she's orgasming, I grab her hips, and slam her up and down on me

"SEOKJIN, God, SEOKJIN!"

"Again baby. Cum again", I shout

I slam her down a few more times and she screams, coming again

God I can't get enough of feeling her, of watching her, of hearing her.

I want more

So much more

I thrust up into her while I bring her down

I go in even deeper this way and I hit a spot inside that causes her to scream loudly

Holy shit I found it

That thought drives me to slam that spot again and again

"Yes Jin", she cries

"There my princess? You want it there?", I tease

"Yes. Fuck don't stop"

"I won't baby girl"

I thrust into her spot a few more times before she grabs onto my arms tightly and cums hard, screaming the loudest she has so far

"SEOKJIN! SEOKJIN!"

I kept going and within a few seconds she cums again

Oh man, I've never had a girl cum twice in a row

I want to see if I can get her to do it again

I keep going and it works

She cums a third time a few seconds later

"Jin! Jinnie, I can't"

"Yes you can."

"Jin" she cries

"C'mon Jo. I want you to feel amazing. You can do it"

I slam up hard and she explodes again

"See baby girl I told you", I moan

"Jin!"

"One more. For me baby. I want it"

She nods

"I want you to scream as loud as you can Jo. I wanna hear how good I make you feel"

I bring her down again and again as I pound into her

"SEOKJIN!"

I watch her body shake and hear her scream.

I look to where my cock is in her as I keep fucking her and what I see makes me moan loudly

I see her white cum covering my cock, more and more going on me with every thrust

I fucking love it, I love that I made her cum

I love seeing it on me

I wonder if she came like that when I ate her out

The sight drives me over the edge

I slam her down and hold her on my cock, coming deep in her and feeling her pussy pulling me.

"Joanne fuck baby girl, you feel so damn amazing" I shout

We're both out of breath as she lays down next to me

"Fuck Joanne, you're amazing at sex", I breathe

"You too Jin. I never came that many times with anyone"

I smile at her words

"I should go", she says

"No. Don't" I say immediately

She looks at me, "Why?"

I shrug, "Because it's late, we're drunk and I want to fuck you more. All night"

"Oh really?", she raises her eyebrow

"Yea. And you want to stay too because you love the way I fuck you and make you cum over and over. So you're staying. End of story"

"Jesus Jin, I like this side of you", she says, "Ordering me around, it's hot."

God she gets me so horny with just her words

"Ok baby, I'll stay", she agrees

"Good"

I pull her to me and just kiss her

---------------------------

My head is fucking pounding

I'm awake but I don't want to open my eyes

The light from the window is gonna make my headache worse

Still I force my eyes open

My head laying on someone's stomach

And the person is naked

I slowly turn my head to the other side

She's asleep, on her back with one arm around my body while I lay on her tummy

Everything from last night came rushing back.

I fucked my best friend

More than once

All night

Sex then sleep for awhile then one of us would wake the other up and sex again

How did this happen?

I remember us all going out to a bar to have some fun

The guys and I just got back from tour

We wanted to have a good time like normal guys

I missed Joanne, I hadn't talk to her in the three months we were gone

So I called her to come with us

The guys love her too

I've known her since we were kids

She's not Korean, she's Italian but she was born in Gwacheon, like me

She lived next to me

Her parents lived in Korea for years before they had her

We met at school when we were five

Even though I was little I knew she was different and I wanted to be her friend

We became best friends and we stuck with each other through everything

But we never had feelings for each other, other than friendship

At least I never did, I don't know about her but I don't think so

And we definitely never slept together

But we were both drunk last night

I was horny and hadn't had sex in months and she was too

So we slept together

I just didn't think it would be so mind blowing

Or that I'd want more

Because I do

I seriously couldn't get enough of her last night

She is amazing at sex

The way she moves, the way she gets me off drives me crazy

And it's making me want her now

I look at her sleeping

She's gorgeous and her body is to die for

I move closer to her and kiss her lips

Her eyes flutter open and look into mine

She smiles and my heart skips a beat

What is going on?

Why did I feel like that?

"Hi Jinnie. You want more?", she teases

"Of you? Always?", I answer

She pulls me to her by the back of my neck and kisses me

Stars explode behind my closed eyes and my body shivers

What the hell is going on?

Why am I reacting like this?

She's just my friend

That's all

Her tongue goes in my mouth and I moan at how good it feels against mine

She rolls me over on my back

She trails kisses down my neck and I moan from them

She keeps going down my body to my cock

She kisses my head, then puts all of me in her mouth, going all the way down until I'm all in

I feel myself in her throat and it's so tight

She starts moving and fire shoots through my body

She blew me last night too and it was the best blow job I ever had

Like I keep saying, she knows what she's doing

"God, Joanne, your mouth is perfect", I groan

She sucks on my cock hard and fast

I can cum right now if I let myself but I don't want to

Not yet

It takes everything in me to pull her off

"Bend over princess", I say

She moves so she's on all fours and I thrust into her pussy from behind

"Fuck yes Jin!", she cries

She's already so wet and I go in easily

I slam into her mercilessly and she shouts out for more, for me to go harder

I grab her hips and hold her in place while I fuck her harder and harder

"Fuck Jin", she scream as she cums

Jesus, I love making her cum

I want to do it all day, everyday

I keep pounding in her until I get deep enough and hit the spot she loves

"I found it again princess", I tell her

I'm pretty good at finding it after last night

"You want it there Jo?", I tease

"Yes Jin, yes", she cries

"Ok."

I snap my hips and thrust harder into her, slamming her spot over and over

It takes less than a minute for her to cum again

Again, I'm in the right position to watch my cock go in and out of her

And just like last night, I watch her cum coat my cock

Fuck

I need to make her cum again

I want more of her on me

"C'mon baby girl. Again", I moan

Slamming in her again, she screams and explodes

I thrust a few more times and she orgasms a fourth time

More of her cum wets my cock every time she orgasms

"Again Joanne. I want to feel you so I can cum too"

"Yes Jin, whatever you want"

"Good girl", I praise her

When I thrust in one last time, she cries out coming hard and causing me to lose it.

I shout her name when I orgasm and she shouts, "Yes Jin, I love when you cum baby."

God she's hot

I pull out and fall on the bed

She lays down too and doesn't move

I hear her breathing hard

After a while of laying there, she sits up

"I'm gonna take a shower.", she announces and starts to get up looking for her clothes

"Can I come?", I ask

I want her to say yes

For some reason I don't want to be away from her

"Sure Jinnie. If you want"

"Ok"

"But you have to give me some clothes. You completely ripped my shirt in half. And you broke my bra so it has to be something baggy, so no one sees my boobs through the shirt.", she says

I snort, "That's gonna be hard with your enormous tits"

She glared at me, "Well maybe you shouldn't have ripped my bra off. If you don't have anything, I'll just ask Joonie for one of his shirts. Those will be big enough"

"No. You can have my clothes"

I don't know why but I don't want her wearing Namjoon's or anyone else's clothes but mine.

I get up and give her a shirt, which she puts on

I laugh as it falls right before her knees

She's short and small and looks absolutely adorable in the shirt.

"Thanks", she says, then just walks out the door

In just my shirt

What the fuck?

"C'mon Jinnie, hurry up or I'm not going to let you in"

I scramble to pull pants and a shirt on, then follow her

We have to pass the kitchen on the way to the bathroom

And I hear some of the guys in it

I glup as I follow her

"Hey Jo..", Namjoon trails off

When I get there I see him, Hobi, Jimin and Jungkook staring at her

"What...what?", Jimin stutters

"Is that...Jin's shirt?", Hobi asks

Namjoon looks at me and I nod

"Yeah it's Jin's. So what?"

"You were with Jin?", Jimin asks, his voice high pitched

I roll my eyes

Why is it so hard to believe that I have sex?

They act like there's no way a girl would like me or find me hot.

"Seriously? You didn't hear me scream his name over and over last night?", she asks, glaring at Jimin

"Uh no. Usually when we hear those sounds, we put headphones on or turn up the tv or whatever, so that we can't hear anything", Namjoon explains

She shrugs, "Whatever yes, I was with Jin"

"He's fucking lucky", Hobi mumbles

Seriously?

Hobi has a thing for her?

She smirks and I see an evil glint in her eye

She's gonna torture him

Well good for him

That's what he gets for thinking I can't get a girl

"Well maybe if you're really nice to me, I'll fuck you just as good as I fucked Jin."

Hobi pales and stares wide eyed at her

They all do

I laugh to myself

"Does that only apply to Hobi?", Jimin asks

"Oh Jimin, sweetie, you can't handle me.", she says

Jimin's mouth drops open

"Only some guys can handle me. Jin is one of them"

She's so evil

I love it

"And you think Hobi is another one?", Namjoon asks

"Maybe. Maybe you too Joonie. I think Yoongi would definitely be able to handle me."

"But not me?", Jimin asks looking annoyed at being left out

"No sweetie. Not Tae either. And I'd break Kookie."

Jungkook turns bright red

I cover my mouth with my hands to disguise my laughter.

"C'mon Jinnie, lets go.", she holds out her hand to me

I take it

"Where are you going?", Namjoon asks hoarsely

"To shower. You guys better put headphones on. It's gonna be loud"

Their mouths drop open and I smirk at them as I follow her

---------------------------

3 months later

Jin POV

"Jin, I need to talk to you. In person.", She texts me

She sent that two hours ago but we were practicing so I didn't see it

I haven't seen her for a little over three months

The last time was when we had sex in the shower

We just got really busy and our schedule was packed with appearances, performances and award shows

I've talked to her a few times

And I think about her all the time

I want her again, ever since that day

I check with Namjoon and we don't have anything to do after practice today

So I text her back

"We don't have anything to do after practice today. I can go to your apartment or you can come to the dorm"

She answers, "I'll come to the dorm. Text me when you're done."

"Ok"

Maybe I can have her again tonight

I never wanted someone more than I want her

--------------------------

"What?", I yell, "You're what?"

I'm in total disbelief

"I'm pregnant. The baby is yours", she repeats

"I...I...are you sure?"

From her face I know that was the wrong thing to ask

"What the fuck does that mean? I'm not a slut Jin. I only slept with you and no one else before or after that night. I haven't had sex in months, just with you. And we didn't use a condom"

Fuck

Shit

"We..didn't?"

How could I be so stupid?

"No Jin. We were probably too drunk to even think of it"

"But we weren't drunk the next day"

"No we were just stupid then", she answers

I honestly don't know what to say

She sighs

"Look Jin, I know it's a big surprise for you. Me too. But I just want to talk to you ok, so just listen"

I nod

"I'm not asking for anything ok? I'm not asking you to help me or raise the baby. If you want to, then of course you can. If you don't, then that's fine too. I don't want any of your money either. I make enough to take care of the baby."

I'm completely baffled

She doesn't want anything from me?

She doesn't want help?

"I know what a baby can do to your career and to BTS' popularity. I get it. I understand. I know the fans will be upset and I don't want me or the baby in the middle of anything. I don't want crazy fans coming after us. Not if I'm raising the baby alone."

This is just too much information right now

I can't wrap my head around it

Any of it

She's pregnant

With my baby

"I just wanted you to know Jin. I would never keep you from your baby. That's all I wanted to tell you."

I nod, still unable to talk

"I guess I'm gonna go ok? I have to work tomorrow"

"Ok", I say

She nods and gets up

"Bye Jin"

Then she leaves

And I'm left with all these thoughts, all this information

And I don't know what to do

--------------------------

"So what did Jo want last night?", Namjoon asks

The guys and I are sitting around the practice room, taking a break

"She left quickly too.", Hobi comments

"Yeah. Uh she had to tell me something", I mumble

"What was it?", Jimin asks

I don't answer

"C'mon Jin, you've been acting weird since she left last night. What did she tell you?", Namjoon presses

I sigh

They'll find out sooner or later

"She's pregnant. The baby is mine", I mutter

Silence

I can't look at them

I'm the oldest, I'm supposed to be the most responsible one, the one to set an example for them

I shouldn't be getting someone pregnant like I'm a horny teenager

"You didn't use a condom?", Tae asks

I shake my head, "We were drunk and didn't think about it."

"Ok. So what's happening now?", Hobi asks

"I don't know. I didn't really say anything. I just listened to her talk."

"You didn't say anything?", Namjoon asks, shock in his voice

"No. I couldn't believe it. I still can't."

"What did she say?", Jungkook asks

I repeat what she told me last night

"You're gonna let her take care of the baby by herself? You're not going to help?", Yoongi asks incredulously

"I don't know! I didn't decide anything. I've just been in shock. I don't know what to do. We're not together. I'm an idol, I'm busy and gone all the time. How am I going to be of any help to her?"

Yoongi shakes his head

"How do you feel about her?", Namjoon asks

"I mean I love her, she's my best friend but that's it"

I think

I've been feeling differently lately but I don't think I have feelings for her

I can't

I can't have a girlfriend while I'm an idol

I can't have a baby

I can't love my best friend

Not that way

"Ok. You know people who don't have feelings for each other in that way, raise children together all the time right?", Tae responds

"I know. But one of those people isn't an idol like me, doesn't have a fan base that expects them to be single or crazy dangerous fans that can hurt the other person or the baby. They have time to help raise the baby"

"Jin, look, you have to think about what you're gonna do. You can't run away from this. Yeah you made a mistake by not using a condom but you can't change that. I just think that you'd regret not raising your child or being in their life. But that's my opinion", Namjoon says

"I don't think you should let Joanne do everything. You helped make the baby, you should share the responsibilities too. Not put it all on her", Yoongi replies

He's right

I know he's right

I'm just scared

But the more I think about it, the more I want to be in the baby's life

The more I realize how dumb I was for not saying anything last night

Of course I won't let her do everything by herself

She's my best friend, I can't leave her alone to do this huge thing

That I help make

"I need to talk to her", I say suddenly

The guys look at me again

"I need to go now", I say standing up

"But we're practicing", Tae reminds me

"Let him go. This is more important than practice", Namjoon says

I nod at him and leave

---------------------------

I drive to Joanne's job

She's a special effects makeup artist for this horror show on tv that I can't watch because I'm scared of it

I've been here before

I've come to watch her while she does the actors make up a few times

She's really good at it

I see her go inside one of the makeup trailers on the set

I ask a worker if I can go talk to her and they allow it

When I get inside the trailer, I see her at the far end, sitting in one of the chairs, on her phone and eating.

"Jo?", I call

She gets startled and looks over at me

"Jinnie!", she says surprised, "What are you doing here?"

I walk over to her

"I came to talk to you."

"Oh?"

"Yea. Look Jo, I know last night I wasn't very responsive. I was really shocked. I should have been better about it. I'm sorry I wasn't."

"It's ok Jin. I know it was a surprise", she replies

"But still. I'm here to tell you that I want to help you with our baby. And I want to help while you're pregnant too. I want to go to all the appointments, I want to cook for you, I want to be around when the baby kicks or whenever you need me. I'm going to do my best to be around as much as I can ok. I don't want you to think you'll be alone. You won't. I'm here"

She looks at me, surprised

Then she smiles

Fuck

That smile, it makes my heart beat faster

"Thanks Jinnie", she says and holds out her arms for a hug.

I move closer and she hugs me tightly

I don't know why but I love being in her arms

I don't want to pull away but I do

I have to

[dawnfire360]

Twenty minutes later they met a knight, on foot. He was soaking wet, and three brightly dyed feathers that once must have waved jauntily above his head were stuck to the side of his helm like drying plaster. One of the feathers, crimson in color, had bled dye in a pinkish line down onto the knight's shoulders. As their little cavalcade approached, the walking knight removed his helm and stared at them. "Gawain?" "Good morning, Griflet. You've...um...been bathing?"

the two of you have been in chan's studio for a couple hours now. this has unofficially become an integral part of both of your routines – chan would come into the studio in the morning to work on new music, while you'd stroll in some time after depending on your prior schedule (college classes, lazy mornings, you get it) to keep him company. you never really chatted while you were in the studio together; you would both just sit and wordlessly do your own thing while enjoying each other's company, maybe breaking the silence once in a while to ask about dinner plans or when chan needed a second opinion on some new beat he was cooking up.

which was why chan got nervous when you suddenly sat up from your usual spot on the couch to ask, "babe, can i ask you something? can you be honest with me?" oh, god. did he do something wrong? chan removes his headphones and places them back around his neck. he turns his swivel chair around to face you, with a concerned expression on his face. "what's up?"

"would you still love me if i was a worm?"

chan pauses; the only reaction he's able to muster is a couple blinks. did he hear you right? "are you serious?" you maintain eye contact as you nod slowly, with a deadpan expression. he suddenly erupts in laughter, throwing himself back against his chair and gripping his own torso for support. did you just spot the slight glimmer of tears around his eyes? despite having asked that in all earnestness, the violence with which he reacted to your innocuous, hypothetical question had you giggling to yourself a little bit. you couldn't help it, his laugh was contagious. "of course i would, baby. worm you is still you," he says, moving from his seat over to your side on the couch as he engulfed you in the biggest bear hug, peppering your face with little kisses. "you're dangerously cute. you have got to stop it before i squeeze you too hard one day."

ೇ 𑁦꒦꒷ minho

the both of you have been awfully busy lately. neither of you could really help it – minho has been a vital part of some new, huge project at work and it's been causing him to spend a lot more time at the office than he'd really like. meanwhile, you were caught up with your final thesis. by the time the both of you managed to see each other at the end of each day in your shared apartment, you were too tired to do anything other than cuddle, eat and watch movies in silence. maybe the occasional "what were you up to today?" here and there.

your exhaustion today was particularly bad. you were on campus the entire day, toiling on your laptop as you approached the last couple of weeks before your paper was due. you trudged through the front door, greeted by your boyfriend, who is already in his pjs and sitting on the couch with take-out dinner while re-runs of the office play on tv. "hey jagi, long day?"

you nodded, dumping your bags by the door and heading straight to the couch to snuggle up against your boyfriend. his arm instinctively begins to wrap around your waist. you sit there in silence, eyes glued to the television. your brain is just a mush of nonsense at this point. you don't even remember how your brain landed on this question, but you were too tired to filter your thoughts out anyway. "would you still love me even if i was a worm?"

"absolutely not."

you have never sat up this fast in your entire life. you think you might have experienced mini whiplash. "what?"

"no."

"why not? don't you love me?"

"i do, so much, but it's weird to be in a relationship with a worm. i am not about to be the real-life version of the female lead in the bee movie, whatever her name is."

you silently resume your previous position next to him, a playful scowl on your face. "you're impossible. i would love you if you were a worm, you know," you huffed. to be honest, you don't really know what response you expected from minho – this was pretty on brand for him. minho chuckled, pulling you closer and planting a loud, semi-wet kiss on your head for theatrics. "i'm just being realistic, y/n. you know i love you. if you were a cat, however, that would have been a different conversation."

"furry."

"only for you."

it's saturday evening, aka date night for you and changbin. this time, you were walking along the han river at 8pm, illuminated only by the dim streetlights along the sidewalk. despite perceived lavishness of the term "date night", the two of you were always too lazy for extravagant dates every weekend (simpler dates were also better on both of your wallets anyway). so when changbin suggested for you to take a long stroll along the river – "the weather's getting cooler, and it's a clear, nice night out!" – you were quick to agree.

a takeaway cup of hot chocolate in your hand to share between the two of you, you have your fingers intertwined, with changbin swaying both your arms as you walked, pointing out inconsequential little things you both observed on your night out. like how a particular cloud looked like a pig, or how the chihuahuas out along the river today terrified the crap out of changbin.

you catch a brief glimpse of what looked like a worm on the pavement – or was it a centipede? you weren't very good with insects – and suddenly you were overcome by an epiphany. changbin side-eyes you. he's spent enough time with you to recognise when the proverbial bulb has lit up in your head, and the particular expression you have on your face right now indicated to him that it wasn't anything particularly good. "what is it?" he asks with hints of skepticism lacing his tone, as he squeezes your hand.

you turn to him with the most mischievous grin he's seen on you in a while. now he's worried. "changbin, would you still love me even if i was a worm?"

"huh?"

"i said, would you still lo-"

"no, i heard you the first time. i'm just confused. why would you suddenly ask me something like that?"

"nothing. just curious, maybe?"

"you are so weird."

changbin can't hide the smile that's creeping up on his face even if he wanted to. he stopped the both of you in your tracks, and let go of your hands to pinch your cheeks as he pecked your forehead. "i guess i would, i'm sure you'd be the cutest worm ever. although i do have to warn you, i have zero experience in taking care of worms."

"it's just a hypothetical question, bin."

he chuckles, and it's the most glorious sound you've heard all day. "i know, i just wanna play it out. what if you really turn into a worm?"

ೇ 𑁦꒦꒷ hyunjin

one of your favourite ways of spending time with your boyfriend, hyunjin, was to sit and watch as he painted. there's something so therapeutic about witnessing his process firsthand – the way he prepares his little work station, places the canvas onto the easel and works his way around the colours of his oil paints is so mesmerising to you. you consider yourself the luckiest person on earth sometimes for that very reason. hyunjin, on the other hand, doesn't mind you watching him for hours as he works at all, in fact he thoroughly enjoys the company. he even sometimes asks if he could paint you –the countless canvases with your portraits painted on them stashed away in your shared apartment's storage room is evidence enough.

today, though, he decided to paint his mom's garden. she snapped and sent several photos to him just the day before, telling him about the new flowers she planted and the bugs she found amongst the shrubs. perhaps hyunjin chose to use his mom's pictures as references because he missed his family and childhood home a little more than usual today, you wonder.

as he worked and manipulated the paint to form a near facsimile of his mom's snaps, you could get clear views of the kind of bugs she had found in her yard. your eyes landed on a rough sketch of a worm, and you became curious. "jinnie," you whispered. hyunjin's gaze never left his canvas, but he was listening. "hm? yeah, baby?"

you gulped. you hope you don't sound like a complete idiot; you were just curious. "would you still love me if i was a worm? you can be honest, i won't be mad. i was just wondering."

a snort. you hear a snort, mere milliseconds before he spun around in his chair, placed his oils and brush back on the tray by the easel and tackled you in a hug against your chair. he completely terrorised you with a continuous flurry of cheek and jaw kisses as the both of you erupted in a chorus of giggles. "what?" you manage to breathe out between bouts of laughter.

"you are literally the cutest person on earth," hyunjin says, just as he leans down to place another sloppy kiss on your cheek. "you know what, baby? i wish you were a worm, only because it would be easier to carry you in my pocket with me all the time."

"come again?"

jisung was agog, in a state of mild shock after you posed your ridiculous question. "there's no way you just asked me that," he said, chuckling, as he continued to shove handfuls of popcorn into his mouth. the both of you were having a movie night in his apartment, cuddled on the couch with your legs tangled underneath the throw. no, the film didn't have anything to do with worms or insects, you were just bored and suddenly recalled something you saw on social media earlier today.

"c'mon. i saw some other people ask their partners this question on tiktok. i was just curious to see what your response would be!"

he reached for the remote on the coffee table and paused the film, shifting his body to face you. wow, he's actually kind of serious about this, you think to yourself.

"yes, y/n. i would love you if you were a worm," jisung deadpans.

you whistle, a scrunched-up expression of exaggerated awe adorning your face. jisung laughs, leaning towards you to peck your nose. "that's kind of gross, though," you point out playfully, as he holds your hands in his.

"i would love you even if you were a roach."

"damn, that cannot be good."

"one of those with wings."

"now, that's just disgusting."

"found in a dumpster."

you playfully gag, although you were genuinely touched by his sentiment, even if it was really gross. you land a quick peck on his lips, as you feel him chase after you. you give in and lock your lips together, wrapping your arms around his neck as he pinned you down on the couch. "i love you, y/n," he muttered, as though he didn't want anyone else to hear it apart from you. "i love you more."

chan's birthday was coming up, and you and felix were tasked by the rest of the boys to bake the birthday cake. that was why you were both currently in the kitchen, doused in flour and standing over the kitchen counter that was littered with all sorts of ingredients and utensils. if you were being honest, it looked like a tornado just hit your kitchen. felix has always been the better baker between the both of you, but he has assured you countless times that he liked having you help him out in the kitchen ("you are literally so adorable when you get stressed about baking," as he puts it). the pressure was especially on this time – you really wanted to make chan the best cake he has ever had. it's not everyday that you turn 25, after all.

so there you both were: felix violently mixing batches of multi-coloured icing in his own corner of the kitchenette while you were on the other end prepping the cake batter in the pan to be shoved into the oven. the atmosphere was silent yet comfortable, as it always has been with felix. a thought suddenly popped in your head, something you meant to ask your boyfriend a while ago but ended up having to put on the back burner. this was the perfect time to get that out of the way, you decided.

as soon as you place the tray in the oven, you remove your gloves and silently saunter behind felix, who failed to notice your presence because of how engrossed he was in colouring the icing. you gently tapped him on the shoulder. "what's up?" he asked, his back still facing you as he continued to mix.

"you'd still love me even if i was a worm, right?" you wrap your arms around his waist in a back hug, as you press your body against his. you could feel felix relax against your touch, before he turned around and wrapped his own arms around you. you look up at him as he chuckled. "why'd you suddenly ask me that?"

you shrugged. "i don't know. i thought about it a while ago but kept forgetting to ask you about it."

"i guess so, although i don't see how that situation would ever come up," he ponders earnestly, earning a giggle from you. "how would you help me bake next time? how would i be able to kiss you, or ask for hugs?"

"aw, baby," you coo, burying your face in his chest as your heart swelled. "that doesn't matter. thanks for loving me no matter what. i love you so much." you feel his lips linger on the crown of your head as you stayed in that position for a while. "y/n," felix mutters, prompting you to look back up at him again. "what about me? would you love me if i was a worm?"

"we'd be worms in love, then."

"hey, seungmin," you break the silence. the both of you were just lying in bed about to go to sleep, but snuggled up against each other as you scrolled through social media on your own phones. he hums in response, eyes still glued to his screen and arm still wrapped around your figure.

"just curious – would you date me even if i were... i don't know, a worm?"

your boyfriend begins to chortle. you feign offence, dramatically placing your hand against your heart. "what? i'm being serious!" he vehemently denies your alleged seriousness, as he puts his phone down on the sheets. "just be honest with me, i won't get mad, i promise."

"no," he says matter-of-factly, as though he had been waiting for you to ask him this very question just so he can give you this specific response. "end of story. just, no."

when you ask him why he says so, he begins to go on a tangent about the logistics of dating a worm. "worms are slimy and disgusting and terribly small. what if i accidentally step on you and smush you?" you can't argue with that logic, you suppose. "plus, don't worms live for like, four years at most? that would make me...." he shivers at the thought; he couldn't even bring himself to finish his own sentence. you begin to laugh uncontrollably at how deadpan seungmin is about your hypothetical question, which in turn causes him to laugh at you for posing such a ridiculous situation. you flirt with the idea of taking your question to new heights. "but what if i was a pretty, non-slimy, giant worm, with the lifespan of a human?"

"that would be infinitely more terrifying."

"hm, you're right."

"you don't need to ask me these weird questions, you know. i love you as you are now, like this," he gestures towards you.

"even in my pajamas and messy hair?"

"especially in your pajamas and messy hair. you're perfect," he gushes, planting a kiss on your lips. "let's go to sleep."

ೇ 𑁦꒦꒷ jeongin

"i wanna ask you something," you tell your boyfriend, as you both walked to the convenience store just a block away from your apartment at 2am. with the both of you being night owls, this was a pretty normal affair in your household. you sometimes got the cravings for some spicy instant noodles, while he has a personal agenda of trying and reviewing every brand and flavour of ice cream the store has to offer (he also can't take spice as well as you can, but will never admit it. but you know).

"hm? jeongin hums, squeezing your hand as the convenience store slowly came into view. the night was nice and calm – the sky was clear, with stars twinkling in the sky and the sound of cicadas buzzing filling the air. actually, the latter was what inspired the question you had for him. "would you still love me if i was a worm?" you ask sincerely, looking up at him.

"huh?" jeongin dramatically exclaims. "a worm? why a worm? how about something nicer like, a puppy? or a capybara?" right. he has been into capybaras these days.

"is that a no, then?" you tease, as you both enter the mini mart. you grab a basket and immediately head toward the instant noodles aisle, with a ruminating jeongin in tow. you begin taking your favourite flavours off the shelves and tossing them into your basket. "you're so strange, but i love that about you," jeongin simpers. "yeah, i guess i would. you know i'd love you no matter what form you came in. you're still my perfect, lovely, pretty y/n!"

you stop in your tracks and pout, as he continues to giggle while pinching your cheeks. you're so adorable, he thinks to himself. "i'd love you no matter what too, i hope you know that," you gush, before your voice lowers into a whisper. "although, it's so unfair for you to be this sweet with me in public. i'm pretty sure the poor cashier heard us."

you both slowly peek at the cash register from above the shelves, watching the cashier fumble around the register. he was clearly eavesdropping. "it's okay. you're worth the embarrassment."

"you're embarrassing me too, you know."

he swiftly shuffles over to the ice cream freezer, as you hear him yell out: "worth it!"
