Llewyn and Wes with their cat, Half-Pint. Comm by @guruan <3

(close-up and more about my OC Wes and their story under the cut) [ID in Alt]

Wes Tiernan is a bartender at The Auld Triangle, an Irish pub in Greenwich Village. We meet him in February, 1961, shortly after the events of Inside Llewyn Davis, when Llewyn drunkenly wanders into his bar and gets himself kicked out. Later, he returns to the Triangle and meets Wes for the first time. They get to know each other as Llewyn begins to come back more and more (to spend time with Wes, of course).

Wes is a trans man, and is closeted. He's charismatic -- he knows the scripts and the right words to say to his patrons like the back of his hand. He loves hooking up with people, and people love hooking up with him. During these hook-ups, he's incredibly focused on his partner, and his partner alone, not letting them touch him -- in part to hide his being trans.

Wes is also biracial; Irish and African American, but white-passing. He grew up in the rural South with folk, blues, and gospel music as an essential part of his life, and lost touch with it after leaving his hometown to move to NYC. Llewyn helps him get back in touch with music in a way he hasn't been in years.

I've written quite a bit for them, but it's out of order and a little all over the place. I'm trying to write some of the early stuff chronologically now, and if anyone is interested, I might get around to posting some of it on ao3.

Wes is the most fleshed-out and real-feeling OC I've ever written, and writing him and Llewyn is a genuine delight. I've been having the time of my life creating him and their story the past couple months, and I am always down to talk about them, so don't be afraid to send asks! When it comes to writing, I thrive on people enabling me lol.

(Note: Some of the stuff I've written for them is pretty spicy, which is new for me! Eventually they have a pretty active sex life, but it's a lot later in their relationship, so if I end up sharing more, that won't show up for a while. Either way, I'd keep it on ao3 and/or tag it on tumblr appropriately, just so you know!)

Hugh x younger gf (always age appropriate, 30s-55).

Hugh and reader hosting a bbq with friends and reader in super horny as she sees Hugh's sweat glow under the light of the fire

sneak away with me

summary: you sneak away with hugh during a party. pairing: hugh jackman x fem!reader word count: 2.2k warnings: smut (unprotected p in v sex, creampie, manhandling, dirty talk, oral - m receiving, doggy style, light spanking) a/n: ugh, i need this man bad. thank you to this anon for requesting this. i know i have more requests to get to, but i just needed some good hugh smut for my delulu mind (btw - this isn't proofread, so apologies for any typos!!!)

You can’t help but stare at Hugh. He’s talking with Shawn and Ryan at the grill, laughing with a drink in his hand and a spatula in the other. He’s wearing a white t-shirt, his arms flexing with each movement and you have to bite your lower lip at the sight of the fabric stretching around his muscles. 

The heat of the grill radiates off of him, a sheen of sweat trickling down the side of his neck as it disappears into the collar of his white t-shirt. He’s smiling and laughing – nose scrunching with each chuckle. Hugh seems so relaxed, so calm, but you… You can’t take your eyes off of him. You ended up tuning out the people you’re standing next to, eyes solely focused on Hugh. 

You and Hugh had decided to throw a casual barbeque with a handful of close friends, and especially after the success of Deadpool & Wolverine, you knew that Hugh needed this. To just relax and be around a group of people that keep him grounded. 

His eyes move towards you, flashing you a large smile as he brings his martini glass to his lips. Hugh’s eyes never leave you as he gazes at you from afar, from the rim of his glass. He knows that look you have on your face. He can see the way your eyes are ogling him, making it clearly obvious (to him) that you want him. Need him. 

Hugh excuses himself from the conversation and makes his way towards you, never once breaking the gaze. You want to walk towards him, want to just jump into his arms, but instead, you let him come to you. 

The people you were speaking with slowly walk away, giving you and Hugh some much needed personal time once he’s standing next to you. His hand rests on your lower back as he turns his head to give you a kiss at your temple, lingering for a moment to whisper. 

“You’re starin’, y’know that?” he says against your ear. 

“How can I not?” you respond, moving a hand to rest on his chest. “Do you see how good you look? And then to top it off, you’re standing in front of the grill all slick and sweaty and–”

Hugh’s low growl interrupts you mid-sentence. His lips are still near your ear as he subtly dips down to nibble at your earlobe. “This party is gonna go on for a few more hours and–”

“Take me upstairs,” you interrupt him. “They can mingle for a while. Ryan and Shawn can handle the grill.”

“You can’t wait for a few more hours?” Hugh asks, pulling back to look down at you. 

You’re gazing up at him, batting your eyelashes in his direction as you gnaw at your lower lip. “If you don’t take me upstairs, I’m gonna go up there myself and take care of it on my own,” you threaten.

Hugh’s gaze darkens as his hand dips lower to rest just above your backside. “Oh, baby, you and I both know you won’t be able to take care of it yourself.”

Your eyes narrow. “Well, you can stay down here and I’ll excuse myself from the party for a moment.” You turn on your heel, beginning to walk back inside the home you share with Hugh before he reaches for your wrist to pull you to him. You glance around, noticing that your guests aren’t even paying attention to you and Hugh. 

“Get on up there,” Hugh whispers, voice low and husky. “And when I get up there, you better be on your knees.” 

“Or what?” you ask, biting the inside of your cheek. 

“Oh, you’ll find out. Now, get on up there.” Hugh releases his grip on you and watches you walk back inside the house as his eyes drift down to your backside. He feels his manhood stir awake, beginning to press itself against the fabric of his jeans. He gives it a few more minutes before he walks over to Ryan and Shawn, asking them to watch the grill for a moment.

“Oh, we saw the way she was looking at you,” Ryan winks. “Go get her, tiger.”

Hugh rolls his eyes and walks back inside the house, ascending the stairs and skipping a step to get to the second floor quicker. He approaches the bedroom and opens the door, seeing you lying back on the mattress instead of on your knees like he asked you to. 

“What are you doing?” Hugh asks, shutting the door behind him as he reaches for his belt and begins undoing them. “You’re not on your knees and I thought I said–”

“Wanted to lie down,” you interrupt him, leaning up on your elbows as you watch undo the button of his pants and then unzip the zipper. 

“Get on your knees,” Hugh demands, walking towards you.

“Can you say please?” you tease, biting your lower lip. You know you’re playing a dangerous game, but you’re horny and you need him to split you in half. 

Hugh growls and shakes his head as he pushes his jeans and boxers down in one motion. His cock springs at attention, already leaking at the tip. 

“If anyone’s gonna be doing the begging, baby, it’s gonna be you.” Without waiting for you to respond, Hugh straddles your midsection, grabbing your hands and pinning them above your head. His cock brushes against your lips and you’re pinned to the bed, Hugh hovering above you. “Be a good girl for me and open up.”

You feel your walls clench, already wet from earlier. You can’t play this game any longer and part your lips for him. He holds your wrists against the bed with one hand, using his free hand to grasp himself at his base and directs the head of his cock past your lips. 

“Suck,” Hugh demands. He’s careful not to put any weight on you as his knees are at either side of your chest, cock slowly sliding into your warm and wet mouth. When he feels your lips wrap around him tightly, his eyes slowly begin to flutter. He pushes his hips forward, forcing you to take more of him as you stare up at him with an innocent look in your eyes. “There’s my good girl,” he coos, letting out a quiet groan as he feels your tongue swirl around his length. 

His hips slowly begin to move forward, releasing himself to grab a fistful of your hair. He groans, eyes falling shut as his head tilts back as he guides your head along his manhood. 

“Fuck,” he groans, his grip around your wrist tightening. You’ve always loved doing this for him, seeing him completely at your mercy, even though you’re the one pinned to the bed. You hollow your cheeks as you pull back from his length and then lower your head back, feeling him begin to hit the back of your throat. You let out a quiet gag, tears stinging your eyes as Hugh moans. 

He pulls away abruptly, looking down at you as his cock is slick with your saliva. He moves down your body, forcing himself between your legs as he releases your wrists. Hugh leans down and brushes his lips against yours, growling lowly. 

“I’m gonna fuck you now,” he smirks. “And then maybe you’ll be a good girl for the rest of the party.” 

You whimper, rubbing your legs together with anticipation. “And then you’ll fuck me again later?” 

“Oh, baby,” Hugh grins. “The night is only beginning.” 

Then, he climbs off the bed and grips your waist, turning you onto your stomach with ease. He then moves his hands to your hips, forcing you on all our fours as he lifts the ends of your dress to reveal your lower half, growling to himself at the lack of underwear. 

“You’re not wearing any underwear?” Hugh asks, gripping the base of his cock as he runs his head along the length of your sex. 

You moan, gripping the sheets as you try to push back against him, yearning for him to just slide into you. “N– No…”

“Ah, so you had this planned all along, hm?” Hugh says, pressing his tip to your entrance. “You’re lucky I love you,” he continues, hands gripping your hips as he slams into you without warning. He fills you to the brim, leaning over you as his lips hover against your ear. “Even though you are being bad.” 

“Y– You love it,” you say through quiet moans, trying to remain quiet even though everyone’s outside and away from earshot. 

“You’re right,” Hugh chuckles darkly. “I do like it when you’re bad. Gives me reason to punish you.” He pulls back, fingertips digging into the flesh at your hips as he wastes no time in thrusting into you repeatedly. The sound of skin slapping against one another echoes off the walls of the bedroom and you’re still forcing yourself to remain quiet, hands gripping the bed sheets. “Lemme hear you, baby,” Hugh encourages. 

His thrusts doesn’t let up. He fills you so perfectly, pulling out to his tip only to slam himself back into your warm depths. You know you’re going to be sore after this, but you don’t mind. It will only serve as a reminder of sneaking away with Hugh while hosting a barbeque with friends. 

“Oh god,” you moan aloud, eyes shut tight as you feel yourself begin to tremble. You know you’re close, know that you’re about to reach your high and Hugh knows it too. He then grabs your arms and crosses them behind you, gripping your wrists to hold them against your lower back as you move your cheek to rest on the mattress, backside high in the air for him. 

With his free hand, Hugh delivers a light slap to your ass. He groans to himself, the feeling of your walls tight around his length, milking him with each thrust brings him closer and closer to the edge. It excites him, knowing that he can fill you up with his seed. He likes knowing that you’ll end up squirming long afterwards, a clear sign of his spend pooling out of you. 

“Oh, fuck, baby,” Hugh moans, the sound of his skin slapping against yours mixed in with the sounds of your moans and the wet squelching noise coming from how wet you are. It’s almost filthy and it only drives him further. 

“H– Hugh,” you whimper, your walls beginning to clench around him as you feel your body tremble. “Oh fu–” Hugh releases your hands and grips your arms, pulling you upright to be flush against him. He moves an arm around your frame, gripping your breast over the fabric of your dress as his lips are near your ear. 

“God, baby,” Hugh growls against your lips. “Gripping me so tight, fuck,” Hugh’s hips begin to falter, his other hand reaching down to rub your clit. 

Your entire body is already so sensitive, still riding your climax and you try to claw at Hugh’s wrist, trying to push him away as the sensations become too much.

“Hugh–” you moan. “Baby, I can’t, oh god–”

“Gimme one more, love,” he says softly, breathless and panting against your ear. His grip around your breast tightens as he applies pressure to your clit, moving it in circles and at a pace to time with his thrusts. 

You reach behind you, lacing your fingers into his hair and gripping it tightly as your body shakes against him. You let out a loud moan as your walls tighten once more around his length and you feel him loosen his grip around you, moving his hands to your hips. His hips stutter and you feel his warmth shoot inside of you, filling you to the brim. 

He rolls his hips a few more times before he pulls out, watching his spend slowly begin to drip out of you and down your inner thigh. He growls at the sight and then watches as you move to lie on your abdomen, trying to catch your breath. 

Hugh walks to the bathroom to grab a warm and wet towel to clean you up. You shiver against his touch, looking over your shoulder at him with a lazy smile. 

“You better wear some underwear when we go back out there,” Hugh chuckles. “Or else this is gonna go everywhere.”

“Mmm, I like it,” you smile.

“I like it too, baby.” Hugh smiles, leaning down to peck your lips. “Love knowing that you’re filled of me.” 

You bite your lower lip and look up at him, slowly moving to lie on your back as you gaze into his eyes. “I love you, Hugh.”

“I love you too, baby.”

“Do we have to go back out there?” you tease with a quiet laugh.

“Just a few more hours and then it’ll just be me and you,” Hugh promises.

You nod and then stand up once he’s finished cleaning you up, walking to the closet to pull on a pair of panties underneath your dress. When you step out, you see Hugh pull up his pants and boxers, buttoning and zipping it back up as he loops the belt around himself. 

He looks over at you and smiles, walking towards the door and taking your hand with him. 

“Ryan’s definitely going to give you shit,” you laugh, descending the stairs with him and going back out to the backyard to join everyone else.

— MY ‘LIL STAR

Spider punk x rockstar!Black Fem reader

Including: British slang (ill do my best!), slight cursing, flirty hobie, pet names: (pretty, star, doll,dolly), slight suggestiveness

Summary:You were preforming one day, and happened to catch the attention of wandering eyes. Hobies eyes </3

🎸: 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐫𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐭. 𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐃𝐞𝐥 𝐑𝐞𝐲

You’ve hung out with a lot of weird ‘blokes’ as Hobie would say but, he’s one to talk since he’s one of the weirdest (HOTTESTTT ASF) though you think his look on the world is quite interesting, and confusing at the same time. But nevertheless you find yourself feeling as though you could tell him anything, which is how he feels about you. Which surprised himself because for the longest time he tried to find out what is was about you that made him wanna stare at your face talking about different guitars you used to play as a kid for hours on end. Then it clicked, your love and appreciation for music. When you first told him that you were in a band he already knew. He saw a villain lurking around the venue you had apparently rented out and got distracted by your voice that he almost forgot about the building wrecking villain. Who he quickly dealt with since he wanted to hear your angelic voice, ( it was all he could think about during the fight).

He stayed a bit after the show to see how you spoke with your fans, and..no surprise you were an absolute sweetheart. You spotted him in a dark corner and got slightly excited to see the spider at one of your shows, after you said your goodbyes you quickly made your way over to him as to not get spotted by any more fans. “Soo how was I? I’m hoping it was somewhat good since thats atleast 4 minutes that you could’ve been using to save someone.” Your heart fluttered at his chuckle, “It was good, I like your style dolly. ‘Suits you.” You smiled, trying to distract yourself from how weirdly attractive it was to see the spider leaning up against a corner of a wall. “Thanks, and thanks for coming out. Hope I’ll get to see you at my next show, but make sure you don’t get distracted while getting rid of a villain or whatever the hell those things are.” He hums at your comment, his eyes locked on your pretty ones. Hobies spider sense starts to tingle slightly, “Sum blokes looking for you-Widow?” Your heart flutters at the way he says your stage name, “Oh yeah, thats just my preforming name. It’s actually y/n.” You say sweetly, your black acrylics fiddling with the chain on your shorts. “Widow get your ass in here!” You roll your eyes, quickly pulling out a pen that was tucked between your waist and the clothing of your jean shorts. You gestured for his forearm, and wrote your number on it. ‘Pretty n a singer damn.’ Hobie took note of the cute heart you left behind the series of numbers.

This was your fit btw

You capped the pen, looking behind you to see your manger still looking. You groaned, “Fuckin pest.” You muttered beneath your breath, earning a snicker from the spider. You turned back to him, with a sigh but a smile. “Call me okay? Wanna let you know when I have another show.” You stated, giving him a wink and a wave before you left to deal with your annoying manager. After that day, you would try and find the spider around town. Which hardly ever worked, but you were equally busy with practice and vocal training. Though you had to admit you did miss the spiders company and you were hoping to see him to give him backstage passes to your show.

Late one night on the balcony of your penthouse, you laid on your plush couch playing your electric guitar. Bored and thinking of Hobie you started to play a tune absent minded, not sensing that he was behind you listening and watching your pretty fingers work the instrument. “Aren’t you just full of surprises.” You jumped, turning around to see the masked spider. “Jesus dude, your gonna give a bitch a heart attack.” You almost dropped your guitar because of his sudden presence. “Sorry doll, was just swinging by the see how the lil star was.” He explained, walking around and sitting down in the chair in front of you. Leaving his own guitar leaned up against it. You noticed this and looked at him curiously, “You play too?” He hummed in response, before manspreading in the chair. You smiled softly, looking over his figure before seeing a cut stretch across his forearm. “My god are you okay?” You asked, getting up and going around your small glass table to get a better look at his wound. “Don’t worry doc I’m fine.” You gave him a look, “Yeah no, I’m fine my ass. Stay here don’t move I’ll be right back.” You rush inside to get your med kit, not feeling hobies eyes wander down to your ass and hips as you left.

Once you returned, you had a med kit clutched in your hand. You set it down on the glass table, opening the case you pulled out some peroxide and bandages. “This might hurt a little, sorry if it does.” You say softly, looking at the eyes of the mask as if asking if he’s okay. “I’m fine pretty, go ahead do your thing.” That same flutter you felt the first time you met him you felt again, your actions becoming more hesitant and nervous as it felt as though he was watching intently. You tried to ignore it as you doused a big cotton ball with peroxide, slowly dabbing it on his wound. Causing him to hiss, letting out a groan, “Fuck..that some strong stuff you got dolly.” Your heart stopped as you tried to ignore how hot it was to hear him curse, throwing the now used cotton ball in the trash can and wrapping his wound up and sealing it. “That looks a lot better, sorry if it hurt too bad.” He shook his head, “Nah it wasn’t that bad, could use a kiss though.” You rolled your eyes shoved his shoulder. “You would like that wouldn’t you?” You giggled, as you turned around walking away to put the stuff back up. Your hips swaying, which slowly started to make Hobie loose his mind a little. “What you wouldn’t star?” He asked, sounding closer than usual, which made sense as he was right behind you.

“Haven’t thought of kissing me once? Hm?”

Part two?

[voidstarsanimations]

CELL BOUND N AU

LONG PARAGRAPH LMAO BTW ITS GONNA BECOME A COMIC AND WATTPADD STORY SOON

So in this au N and Uzi are at school, and They decide to go sneak off and do stupid illegal stuff lol

The principal of said school secretly found them and called the cops

After that N and Uzi were separated for about a week and when uzi finally got to see N again he had changed. He wore a red uniform in the place they were being held at for what they had done. These are the uniform rankings

Blue : Low offense (this is where Uzi is

Green : high offense - low risk

Yellow - low offense high risk

Red - High offense High risk

Pink - release week

Orange - No home to go back to but release date passed

So N turned out to have killed a cop and was put on high offense, and now was forced to be watched most of the time

N wanted him and Uzi go be able to get out of the facility they were in so he ended up asking uzi to take his life and he takes hers. Uzi declines and starts yelling at N for what he even proposed

(oh btw in this au there's no disassembly drones, so they are all workers lol)

N pulled out a gun he had snatched and ended up shooting Uzi in the head. After that he wound up, taking Uzi's hoodie feeling bad and waited for the guards to get in, he then killed the gaurds.

He sat with Uzi until the police arrived and took him to jail. When he got to the jail they did the usual jail stuff lol(most of this here on is my experience related to jail)

They took his mugshots and fingerprints and sat him in a holding cell, they had a doctor do a checkup on him, when then they asked him. "Why did you kill her, N? And that set him off he started hitting his head as hard as he could, they stopped him and ended up taking him to the psychiatry ward (once again now it's off of experience)

From here there's no more lore as of now but stay tuned for more

[talking-2-the-wall]

This is for an Omori au I have

its literally just an apocalypse au lol

but its called Armageddon and this one sprite took me forty minutes so I doubt they'll all be done by tomorrow but here's kel's

Edit: I just finished Sunny's so now they can kiss (yes this au has suntan in it who cares)

Edit 2: I'm gonna keep editing this with each one as I finish them so stay tuned next is Aubrey

Aubrey's was hell to edit and there's still mistakes like on the right side of her ponytail but oh well. And for context I give her baggy jeans, the white on her arms are bandages, she doesn't wear her contacts, the ribbon is holding her hair in a ponytail, and the white around her waist is a hoodie. Yeah, I tweaked her design a lot lmao I just really liked designing her on paper and went wild.

Next will be Basil

Edit 3: the next day

here's basil

I chose more muted colors and BEANIEEE !!! :DDD

btw he's wearing mismatched high socks because I said so (he did NOT get dressed up for the apocalypse guys)

Edit 4: two days later

Here's Hero :3

This one took forever bc of stuff I was doing and the pixels actually aren't all squares but oh well

All I did was make his shirt yellow, make his pants lighter, and give him blue fingerless gloves

But I'm excited for Mari :DDD

Edit 5: The next day

Finally done, here's Mari!

Yes, the short-haired purple-dyed Mari hair has been done a million times, but I HAD TO

And yes, that's Hero's hoodie UvU

Anyway, they're all done!

My apocalypse AU, Armageddon

[akarisandraws]

What's your big opinion on every Sonic character don't skip any detail

Dude, do you know how many sonic characters are there?

Like a lot. So im gonna keep it on the main ones LOLL

Maybe i'll add to this tho. We'll see.

HERE WE GO!!

Sonic: He's my favourite character of all times! Such a funky fella. I love his way of thinking, (as in everyone deserves second chances and freedom is important) and of acting, with the whole attitude. He gives me a sense of freedom that i haven't felt from any other media at all! Its quite impressive honestly. I could write pages upon pages on how Sonic as a character is like the peak of literature in my eyes, but this post would get way too long. In summary tho, i like almost every aspect of Sonic the Character.

Tails: The baby! I also really love tails! I think his role as a sideckick is very endearing, and is a great balance to sonic in all possible ways. One problem with modern Tails, though. He's portrayed as a coward. And like??? That's not who he is?? Like C'mon sega.

Knuckles: He don't chuckle!! Final part of team Sonic, and Sonic's first rival! I really like the knucklehead. But as is the norm, Sega screwed him up badly on Boom. I despise that they're supposed to be the same Knuckles. Because they're not. I like Boom Knuckles, as his own character, but granted, Boom is an acquired taste.

Amy: Honorary part of team sonic! I love her! Mostly on the IDW Comics. I think they handle her excellently in there. I know that Amy is a hated character by the fanbase because most say that her only purpose is to be the "girl character love interest" and i can agree up to some point in some games, but in IDW she's sooo much better. We stan IDW Sonic.

Shadow: Yet another case of Sega making character assassination. Shadow's like, one of the most complex sonic characters there are, If not THE most complex one. And i love that! Though im very sad that Sega hasn't been able to replicate that SA2 Magic quite as well. Will SonicXShadow (heh) give him justice? Stay tuned.

Rouge: MY GIRL!! Ok so controversial opinion, Rouge's my second favourite sonic character, just because i think its hilarious that she (once) was the leader of team Dark. So She commanded a killing machine and An alien experiment. What a girlboss! 10/10 Character.

Omega: Gotta be honest, not much of an omega fan. But i really like his dynamic w/Rouge and Shadow. It's pretty sweet that they become friens :)

Cream: The other baby! I think she's the sweetest character. Like fr. I really want to see her more often on the games! Though i get why in recent games she hasn't appeared. Suddenly the adventures got way too serious. Still want her back in the games though!

Blaze: Fire princess! I fr am so salty that she isn't as much in the games. Like, what gives? She's such a successful character (With good reason btw) and you arent like, putting her in the stage?? outrageous. But yeah, i really Like Blaze. Her contrast and similarities with sonic are great! They make a great duo too.

Silver: The sweetest most unhinged boi in the sonic canon. I find it very funny that in his first appearance he was all angsty and stuff, but now he's full on optimism and sunshine. I love the juxtaposition on that behalf. Boi is cute but he can mess you up.

The Chaotix: Oh i love the found family trope. Espio's my fave for sure. He's the funny ninja, what else do you want? Though Vector and Charmy are great too. Vector has such a cool ass dad vibe. And Charmy... is Charmy. if yk yk.

AAAAND I think i'll leave it there. Should i include someone else? lmk.

Thanks for the ask!

“I see…”

Vox, completely entranced by you, puts your resume down and extends a hand out to you across the desk, “Well, that’s all I really need! Congratulations! You got the job!”. Winning sound effects could be heard from Vox’s speakers as he congratulates you.

“Oh! I-Is that it..? No questions..?”

“Nope, I’ve seen enough- Actually, what size are you?”

“Uh… Why?”

“For your uniform, of course!”

Hello, I just read your fic born sinner and I loved it, psycho niko is just so crazy. I can't even imagine how much this will affect bran. I bet he will blaming himself and will also have one of the worst breakdown. Wonder how niko will fix this

I can also see lan going crazy creating havoc and ruining everything in order to save his brother. I wonder how landon and mia will survive.

I am so excited to see Levi, Aiden and Johnathan.

Poor remi, he didn't deserve to get stabbed but I am happy that niko took revenge for bran by hurting Creighton. Aiden is definitely gonna lose his mind.

Just a small suggestion ( you can also ignore)

How about divide the fic in two parts, like first part may end with lan finding bran and next part maybe grovelling by niko or maybe some other drama.

Also I hope you will update born sinner fic soon. I am so excited to read what happens next, especially when someone else is also wanting bran. Can't wait to see niko fight with another person to save bran 😁

BTW will we see any updates of your other fics this week? ( I just wanted to know I am not pressuring you)

I hope you will write more nikobran fic

Oh honey the next chapters are gonna be brutal !!!

Bran is gonna be a mess and it's gonna take a while for him to even consider forgiving Niko they are about to be in for a bumpy ride one that is gonna take a while to heal and forgive

His breakdown is gonna be a mess and niko is gonna have a long and rough road a head of him but he's determined he and Bran will make it but it's gonna be a long and difficult journey

Confession time/spoiler Mia and Lan are not gonna survive this they're gonna actually have a huge fight that has no saving or coming back from trust it's gonna be a hot messy mess.

But Landon is out for blood he's gonna kill everyone and anyone in his way he's out for war and trust the Heathens are gonna give it to him.

I'm so excited for you to read their pov Levi is gonna be a mess Aiden is gonna have PTSD from his trauma and Jonathan is gonna be reliving worst nightmares from his past as well the King Family is not prepared for what's to come.

Remi didn't deserve that unfortunately my poor boy got the short end of the stick

TBH the story is gonna be split into arcs ^^ similar to your suggestion {also never be afraid to share any ideas you have I love hearing them}

The first part is obviously the families suffering and trying to heal relationships being broken/healed friends becoming enemies enemies becoming friends this is gonna be a bumpy ride the second arc is going to be the healing Bran and Niko repairing their relationship and the third arc is going home that's my favorite one ^^

More nikobran stories coming your way as well as updates so stay tune ^^

KAGIHIRA CHAPTER 22 !!!!!!!!!!! Rambling under the cut

Honestly kind of love how hirano keeps coming back to how long kagi has liked him its kind of like. If he wants their relationship to stay the same as it has been, depending on how long kagi has liked him then it staying the same would always include kagi’s love for him. “The kagi kun im fond of is the one who’s in love with me” etc etc. ive said it before but hes very scared of their relationship changing but it doesnt have to. Idiot. And also kagi teasing him about it. King.

WILD TASHIRO AND SHIRAHAMA SPOTTED! I could be so much weirder about them. Btw. They’re kind of like sasahira to me. I digress

Kagi’s missing button. Live niibashi reaction is sooo funny. He’s in hell. Would not be surprised if theres a conversation in the future about niibashi telling kagi how that was very un-just-roommates-like behavior from hirano. That was gay as hell. AND THE WAY NIIBASHI WALKS AWAY COVERING HIS EARS…..i love him so much.

And WHY IN GODS NAME did they go to the STAIRWELL? HMM??? Feel like theres other less conspicuous places to do this. Why did you take him to the fucking abandoned stairwell hirano. Anything related to your relationship with sasak[gets shot]

OH reading through a second time for this. Just realized he pointedly places his phone down for the ten seconds—neither of them are actually timing it. Im sure kagi is in his head and hes gonna say something about it probably being a little longer than just 10 seconds. And Hirano in general starting to notice the absence rather than the presence. You know. But also this touch was sooo cute like. Even if it doesnt make hiranos heart race or blush or whatever its so comfortable for him. Kagi’s rolling around and nuzzling his shoulder but its still not bad at all. It’s comfortable and easy and im going to rip my heart out.

Wild Hanzawa spotted. “How about becoming the vice president next year” why does he say this to literally everyone. He’s done it to hirano and kagi and tashiro and miyano apparently. This isn’t about him right now sorry.

Anyways. Getting to like the main meat of this chapter im locking on to so much. The conversation with miyano and surrounding feelings. Hirano also seems to lock on to the fact that his heart is supposed to race if hes in love. And then he conveniently tunes miyano out as he starts talking about how the comfort and family vibe around someone is also love.

And its like. Hirano seem so forlorn that his heart doesn’t race like kagi’s. “I guess i really cant feel that way about kagi kun huh…” what do you mean cant why do you sound so sad about it. Bitch. But also the admission that his heart was pounding when kagi hugged him in the nurses office. Okaaayyyyy. Yeah buddy that was just surprise. Mhm. Anyways. I’ve said it a million times and every chapter i feel more and more right that hirano wants to love kagi. But apparently he feels like he cant. He’s basing everything off of kagi’s feelings which are like very intense and touch based. But he doesnt experience love that way. If he had just LISTENED TO MIYANO[explodes] im fine. Thankfully he does listen to the part about how you think about the person and want to see them. And that subsequently thinking about how kagi being around makes him for focused and comfortable and wanting him around right now is gay as hell. “It’s NOT a date but” buddy if you have say ‘but’ then i hate to break it to you. Hirano what if i kill you for real. Kidding.

Anyways lovely chapter next one can’t come fast enough etc etc peace and love on planet kagihira

Plot Summary: You attend the same university as Clark and you guys fall head over heels with each other

Clark Kellogg ~ Love at First Sight

Clark’s pov

So I’m attending New York University to study film, I’m arriving at Grand Central Terminal, I see this beautiful woman with dark brown (y/h/t) hair, she has these beautiful (y/e/c). I see her getting on the train, I follow behind her. She’s seated towards the exit doors of the train. I sit across from her.

I see her pull out a book, she reads Goosebumps by R.L. Stein. Wonderful author btw. I had the courage to speak up to her.

“You like Goosebumps?”

“Yes. I love Goosebumps. R.L. Stein is a great author. You a fan?”

“Yes I am. Huge fan of him.” I said with a smile.

She smiled back. She looks down at her feet for some reason. I can tell she’s shy.

“So what university you’re attending?”

“Oh, um, NYU.” I proudly admit.

“Really?! Me too!!” She exclaims

“Great. Well that means I’ll be seeing you there then.”

“Hope so.”

I smile while i look at my shoes. I looked up to see that this is my stop. Me and her get up since we both attend the same university.

“My name’s Clark btw.” I extend my hand out to her.

“Y/n” she shakes my hand.

*20 minutes later*

I enter my dorm room after me and y/n split ways. I put my stuff down on my bed when I hear the door open and I turn around to greet my new roommate, to my surprise, it’s y/n!!

“Y/n?! What a surprise! What you doing here?” I asked her with a grin.

“Hey Clark. Um what a coincidence. I’m your new roommate.” She smiled back at me. Outta of nowhere, she gave me the biggest hug I ever received.

“Oh thank you.” I hugged her back.

*𝐒𝐦����𝐭 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐭*

She looked up at me and just stood still. I look back in her eyes. I look back and forth between her eyes and her lips. She does the same thing. I feel myself to lean in, so does she. My lips met hers.

We both start to make out aggressively and passionately. We both stumble a bit until we hit my bed with me on my back.

I start to undress, so does she. She starts to take off her shirt, her pants until she was only in her bra and underwear. She was so beautiful. I couldn’t believe it.

She came down to kiss me and I kiss her back. I roll over where she was the one on her back. I kiss down her chest towards her stomach, down to where her thighs are.

“Are you okay with this?” I ask her to reassure her.

“Yes. I’m okay.” I gave her a soft kiss on her lips.

I resume to what I was doing. I can tell she’s enjoying it, cause she’s moaning her head off (😂). I go between her thighs and I hear her screech out, she’s pulling my hair slightly but ya know what I mean 😏. I’m between her legs for a good 5 minutes.

***** 𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐦𝐮𝐭*****

“Wow! That was amazing!!” She exclaims with a huge smile on her face.

I smiled as well, I looked at her, “ Yea, it was.” I gave her soft kiss.

“I would love do this again. Wanna get coffee tomorrow?”

“I would love that very much.”

We both shared a smile and kissed passionately.

I think I’m gonna like this.

Always Been You (Part 7).

Character(s): no-outbreak!Joel Miller x fem!Reader Summary: Your friendship with Joel has changed since your argument... Can it be mended? Word count: 4,491 Author's Note: The time jump will happen in the middle of this chapter btw! Joel's now in his early-thirties (32-33ish), which makes Sarah about 12-13 and Reader is about 29-30. We're gonna spend the rest of the story in this timeframe, so stay tuned! Warning: None. SERIES MASTERLIST

It had been a few days since your argument with Joel and he hadn’t returned any of your calls or messages. He hadn’t even stopped by your coffee shop for his usual pick-me-up with Tommy. At first, you were sad and upset, but now that you had enough time to think about it, you had become more annoyed. 

You wanted to tell him that the date went well, but that all you could think about was him. You wanted to tell him that all you could ever think about was him, how he occupied most of your thoughts every day, and how you always looked forward to seeing him or talking with him. 

Since meeting him two years ago, you and Joel have talked almost everyday; and now not being in communication with him for a few days made you miss him, more so than ever. 

The sound of your phone ringing brought you out of your thoughts and when you saw Joel’s name displayed on the screen, you felt your heart leap in excitement. You didn’t hesitate before answering, hearing him sigh at the other end of the call.

“Joel,” you answered. 

“I need you to come to Sarah’s school.”

Immediately, you grabbed your bag and left your coffee shop, already raising your arm in the air to grab a cab. “What? Is everything okay? Is Sarah–”

“She’s okay, we just– Something happened and I think it’s best if you come by.” 

“Okay, I’m heading there now. See you soon.” 

Joel didn’t respond like he usually did. Instead, he just hung up the phone and you sighed, climbing into the back of the cab and telling the driver the address to Sarah’s school. 

After about fifteen minutes, you climbed out of the cab and walked into the school building. You were just about to call Joel when you saw Sarah sitting outside on the floor, back against some lockers. When she looked up at you, you noticed tears building in her eyes. 

Quickly, you sat next to her and pulled her into you, feeling her begin to break down against you.

“What happened, sweet girl?”

She shook her head, holding onto you as she cried into the crook of your neck. You held her like that a few minutes before you heard the sound of heavy boots approach you both. You looked up and saw Joel, biting the inside of your cheek. 

“Babygirl,” Joel said, crouching down in front of the both of you with a quiet grunt. “We’re gonna go and talk to your teacher now, okay?” 

Sarah bit her lower lip and pulled away from you to wipe her tears away. “I’m sorry. I didn’t– I shouldn’t have said what I said.”

You furrowed your brows in confusion and gently kissed the crown of her head before you stood up. Joel followed you and motioned towards the classroom nearby. 

“We won’t be long, babygirl.” Joel moved a hand to your lower back and pulled you aside for a moment. 

“Joel, what happened?” 

“She got into an argument with another girl,” Joel sighed. “The girl made some comments about her not having a mom and well,” Joel ran a hand over his face. “Sarah told her that she did have a mom…” 

“Well, she does,” you pointed out. 

“She said that you were here mom,” Joel replied. 

“Oh,” you replied, biting your lower lip. “I don’t–”

“Her teacher thinks it’s best if she talks to the both of us about what happened.”

“Joel,” you sighed. “I don’t want to overstep any boundaries. She’s–”

“This involves you,” Joel interrupted. “I know we’ve got a lot to talk about, but I don’t–” he sighed. “I don’t want to do this alone.” 

Your eyes softened and you reached to rest a hand on his arm, gently giving it a squeeze as if to tell him that you weren’t going anywhere. You just nodded and dropped your hand, which Joel immediately took in his own and led you into the classroom. 

The talk with Sarah’s teacher lasted for about twenty minutes. You didn’t know how to feel, or what to say, but you kept a tight hold on Joel’s hand throughout the entire time. You could tell that it wasn’t often that he had to speak with Sarah’s teachers; she had always been so well-behaved, never getting into trouble, so this was completely new to him. 

Joel finally released your hand once you both stood up to leave the teacher’s classroom. You wanted to say something, anything, but you just didn’t know what you could say to make this situation better. You and Sarah had always been so close from the moment you two met and truthfully, this was inevitable. Sarah never had an important, female figure in her life as constant as you, but you weren’t sure how to feel about Sarah saying that you were her mom. 

“Can you come over?” Joel asked, breaking you from your thoughts.

“Sure. I think that’s a good idea.” 

He nodded and led you down the hallway to see Sarah standing up and slinging her backpack over her shoulders. Joel immediately took her hand and you followed closely behind, watching the two of them walk in front of you as Sarah leaned against him. 

Your feelings for Joel had grown over the years since meeting him, but the more you found yourself falling in love with him, the more you realized that you wanted to be part of his life and Sarah’s. You thought that by keeping your distance and choosing to just be friends that you would have less to lose, less of a risk at putting a rift in your friendship and relationship with him. 

But this… This overstepped so many boundaries that you and Joel had set in place. 

Sarah claimed that you were her mom and while it seemed harmless, you knew that there were deeper and underlying issues that Joel needed to address. 

There were certain things that you and Joel now needed to talk about. 

Once at the truck, Sarah pulled away from Joel and turned to look up at you. You could tell that there were still tears threatening to spill over, but you just leaned down and pulled her into a tight hug. You knew how she felt, having grown up without either a father or mother; it was lonely and filled with so much envy of other kids who had both. 

“It’ll be okay,” you whispered into her ear. “We’re okay, Sarah.” 

“Y– You promise?” she whispered. 

“I promise.” You pulled back and wiped her tears, kissing her forehead. “Come on. I think your dad’s waiting for us.” 

Sarah nodded and turned around to climb into the backseat of the truck. You shut the door and climbed into the passenger side, looking over to see Joel staring at you with a look that you weren’t familiar with. Once he was sure you both were buckled in, he started the truck and pulled out of the parking spot to head back home. 

It took about ten minutes before Joel pulled into the driveway of his house. It wasn’t long before Sarah climbed out of the truck, hurriedly making her way inside before you or Joel could pull her aside; you assumed that she wanted her own space to process what happened before either you or Joel talked to her. 

You were about to climb out before Joel’s large hand reached out to rest on your knee. You looked over at him, seeing his eyes still focused on the steering wheel. You could feel his hand trembling against you and while this would have made the butterflies swirl around in your stomach, it gave you an entirely different sensation. 

“Joel?” 

“These last few days have been fucking miserable,” he said. “I shouldn’t have said what I said to you and I ain’t got no business chiming in on your dating life.” 

You sighed, hesitantly moving a hand down to rest over his. You felt him relax and when he finally looked at you, you took note of the tiredness in his features. 

“You never answered any of my calls or messages…” you whispered. 

“Wasn’t in the right state of mind to answer ‘em,” Joel answered honestly. “And then this happens and I just… Maybe we should set firmer boundaries.” 

You felt your heart breaking. You wanted to tell him so badly that there wouldn’t be a second date with Sam and that there won’t be anyone else you were interested in because your heart belonged to him. 

But you couldn’t. 

You had to remind yourself that this wasn’t as simple as telling someone you were in love with them. Joel had a daughter that you also had to think about. 

So instead, you gave his hand a squeeze and nodded in agreement. “Okay,” was all you responded with. What else could you say that would make this situation better? Telling him that you loved him would make things more complicated. 

“Maybe we should–” Joel sighed, pulling his hand away from you. “Maybe we should give each other some distance for now.”

He was breaking your heart and stomping all over it. Tears threatened to spill over, but you just inhaled a deep breath and nodded. This was what he wanted; he was never interested in you and you were so naive to think that someone like Joel would like you the way you liked him. 

“Okay,” you repeated. 

“But I think that we should both talk to Sarah. Let her know that our relationship is just–”

“Friends,” you finished. 

Joel nodded. “Right.” 

“Okay, Joel. Whatever you want,” you whispered. “I don’t want to overstep and I certainly don’t want to give Sarah any ideas that we’re more than that.” 

“Thank you,” Joel said. “For understanding and you know, everythin’ else.” 

You nodded and climbed out of the truck, waiting for him to do the same. When he did, you watched him walk in front of you at a distance. This was different; your relationship with Joel had shifted in the last few days and you weren’t sure that it would ever go back to what it once was. 

You followed him inside and down towards the hallway where he gently knocked on Sarah’s door. You heard her muffled voice telling him to come in and when he opened the door, you caught sight of the young girl lying in the middle of her bed with an arm draped over her eyes. 

“Can we talk?” Joel whispered, gently tapping her leg. 

She sighed and sat up, looking between the both of you with furrowed brows. “I didn’t mean anything by it,” she began. “I just– Everyone else has a mom that’s there for them and I don’t and it just– It came out.” 

You bit your lower lip, glancing over at Joel before you walked towards the foot of her bed. You sat down next to her and gently tapped her knee, flashing her a small smile. 

“It happens,” you reassured her. “We have been spending a lot of time together in the last two years–”

“But she ain’t your mom,” Joel interrupted, causing a quiet sigh to leave Sarah’s lips. He didn’t even look at you, didn’t even look at Sarah as he said it and part of you had to wonder if this was hurting him as much as it was hurting you. 

“Your dad’s right,” you sighed. “But just because I’m not your mom doesn’t mean that I love you any less. You’re my sweet girl,” you continued, tucking a strand of curly hair behind her ear as you noticed the tears slowly beginning to fall from the corners of her eyes. “And you know what, you’ve got an amazing dad.” 

Sarah nodded, bringing her hands to wipe away her tears as she leaned against you. “I do wish you were my mom,” she whispered quietly, but it was loud enough that you and Joel both heard it. You looked up at him and bit your lower lip, seeing him look away from you as quickly as your eyes met. 

“You know,” you said, your arm around her shoulders. “I spent my entire adolescence wishing I had a mom and dad, but my grandpa– He had so much love for me that I started to realize that he was both. He was both my mom and dad whenever I needed him. And I think your dad does that for you, right?” 

Sarah nodded. “He does.”

“And whenever you need me, I’m always gonna be right here.” 

She gave you a tight hug and buried her face further against you. You held onto her, placing a gentle kiss at the top of her head before you pulled away. 

“Can I have some alone time with you?” Joel asked Sarah.

You bit your lower lip and left her bedroom, closing the door behind you as you made your way to wait on the front porch. You knew that it was going to be different from now on, that you weren’t going to be seeing Sarah or Joel as much as you had been these last couple of years. 

Deciding that you didn’t want Joel driving you back home, you decided to call for a cab to pick you up in about five minutes. After you had gotten off the phone, you heard the front door open and the sound of Joel’s footsteps approaching you from behind. 

“I just wanna thank you,” Joel said. “For what you said back there.” 

“Of course, anything for her. I just wanted her to know that what she said wasn’t a bad thing,” you replied honestly. You stood up and turned around to face Joel, the distance between the both of you seeming like miles and miles apart. “I would do anything for your girl, Joel.” 

“And I appreciate that.” 

“But?” 

“Boundaries,” he said. “We need to have ‘em.” 

You nodded. “Okay.” 

“Let me take you home.”

“Don’t. I already called a cab. You want boundaries, Joel, so that starts now.” 

“Darlin’–”

“What Sarah’s feeling is valid, Joel. It’s valid and it’s understandable. Her teacher shouldn’t have made a big deal about it and if anything, she should have talked about this with that other girl’s parents, not Sarah’s.” 

Joel sighed. “She called you her mom.”

“I’ve been the only woman in her life, Joel. What did you expect?” 

“Not that.”

“Really?” you scoffed. “Are you that naive? It’s just going to get tougher as she gets older, Joel. She needs you to reassure her that it’s okay to have these thoughts, that it’s okay that she doesn’t have a mom. You can’t shield her from the realities of this world and you know that.” 

“But you’re not her mom,” Joel replied, tightening his jaw. 

“No shit,” you replied. “And quite frankly, her mom is missing out on an amazing girl. I mean it when I told Sarah that whenever she needed me, I’m going to be right here. I know you want boundaries, but that girl means the world to me.” 

Joel sighed, running hand over his face. “We ain’t together. You don’t owe her or me anythin’.” 

“Are you that oblivious, Joel?” 

“What?” 

“You and Sarah saved me two years ago. I was stuck for the longest time and then I met you. My life won’t ever be the same and that’s a good thing, but–”

“You goin’ on that date hurt,” Joel interrupted, changing the subject mid-conversation. To him, this wasn’t about Sarah. It never was. He knew that what Sarah was feeling was understandable and the talk he had with her had less to do about what she actually said and more to do with you. 

“Joel…” you sighed. Just as you were about to say something, you heard the sound of horn honking. You turned to look at the cab that you had called and you bit your lower lip, looking up at Joel who didn’t want to meet your eyes. 

He had put a guard up around himself again and you weren’t sure if you could lower them again. 

“I’ll see you around,” Joel said. 

“Joel,” you repeated. “I–”

“Boundaries,” he interrupted. Joel then turned on his heel to walk back into his home, not bothering to wait until you left. That was different. Joel would always make sure that you got into the cab safe or that you got into your coffee shop safely before leaving. 

You felt tears stinging your eyes before you turned around to walk towards the cab. 

“If you love her, why don’t you tell her?” Sarah asked, sitting on the couch with Joel. 

“Because,” Joel sighed. “It’s just complicated.”

“How?” 

“It just is, babygirl.”

“You know she loves you too, right?” 

“No, she doesn’t,” Joel replied. 

Sarah rolled her eyes, bringing her legs up onto the couch as she leaned against the side of Joel’s body. After what happened earlier today, Sarah was tired – mentally and emotionally. She was hoping that you would stay for dinner, but when Joel told her what happened, Sarah had to come to terms that things were just going to be different from now on. 

“Dad,” Sarah sighed. “You deserve to be happy and she– She does too.” 

“So that must mean that we should be together?” Joel shook his head. “She deserves better than me.” 

“Who’s better than you?” Sarah asked, tilting her head. 

“She went on a date, babygirl,” Joel sighed. “She said she’s ready to date and she didn’t pick me. It is what it is. I’m sorry it didn’t work out, but we have to set boundaries from now on.” 

Sarah shook her head, wrapping her arm around Joel’s and looking up at her. “It’s always been me, you, and Uncle Tommy… But these past couple of years, it’s been the four of us and I– I like it. It works. It’s–”

“You know, you’re only nine but you act like you’re an adult.” 

Sarah rolled her eyes. “And that’s a bad thing?” 

“I just miss you being so little,” Joel smiled. 

“Stop changing the subject, dad.” Sarah chuckled. 

Joel sighed. “If we’re meant to be, babygirl, we’ll find our way back to each other.” 

“You really believe that?” 

He shrugged. “I can hope.” 

Three years later…

You looked down at the invitation Joel sent you, biting your lower lip. 

Please join us for Sarah’s 13th birthday! 

It was at their house, a small get together with some of Sarah’s close friends. Joel had put a pool in their backyard, so while it was going to be a barbecue, it was also going to be a pool party per Sarah’s request. You had told him that you were going to make it, but since the talk of boundaries came up three years ago, your friendship with Joel changed. 

You didn’t talk to him as frequently as you did. 

You didn’t see him as regularly as you did. 

He didn’t visit your coffee shop as often. 

And you didn’t see Sarah as much as when you first did when you first met. 

Sure, you still checked in with both Sarah and Joel, but the distance between you and Joel had caused a rift. The boundaries he wanted to set in place had become something that you didn’t want to overstep and something that Joel didn’t want to break either. 

You knew that Joel and Tommy finally started their business, constantly working since they had built rapport with other businesses. You knew that Sarah was definitely reaching her pre-teen years and she still called you whenever Joel wasn’t giving her what she wanted. 

Despite still being present in both their lives, it just felt different. 

And with the space and distance that Joel created, your feelings for him slowly started to disappear (or at least you thought so). You didn’t think about him as much and it helped that you didn’t see him as often as you did. You went on more dates, had more one night stands than you cared to admit, but there was something missing. Joel and Sarah had been the two people who gave you purpose, who made you laugh and smile on a daily basis, but it went away as soon as Joel wanted to set boundaries. 

And now, you were standing in front of Joel’s home dressed in a pastel yellow sundress that stopped just past your knees. Before you could even knock, the door swung open and you smiled at the sight of Tommy. 

“Look at you,” he grinned. “Looking like a summer’s dream.”

“Always the charmer,” you teased, gently nudging his midsection as you stepped inside with a couple of gifts for Sarah. “Where’s the birthday girl?” 

Just as you finished asking, you heard a loud screech followed by a splash of water. You and Tommy both chuckled. 

“I’m guessing the pool.” 

Tommy smiled. “Sounds right. Joel’s in the back doing some grilling. I just had to come out here for a smoke, away from the children.” 

You nodded. “Okay, well, I’ll see you back there.” 

Tommy nodded, giving you a gentle hug and placing a soft kiss at your temple. “We miss you, you know?” 

“I miss you guys too.” 

“Whatever that old man tells you, don’t listen to him. He misses your coffee and he misses you.” 

You rolled your eyes, biting the inside of your cheek as you pulled away from him to walk towards the backyard. You heard the sounds of laughter overpowering the sound of music that was bumping through the speakers. Once you stepped out, you bit your lower lip at the sight of Joel dressed in shorts and a dark t-shirt that clung to every muscle. 

But as you were ogling him from afar, you noticed an older woman come by to stand next to him, resting her hand on his bicep and leaning up to whisper something into his ear. You saw them share a laugh and he pulled back to look down at her, eyes obviously taking in her frame. 

Then, you saw him lean in to give her a soft kiss on her lips. 

Your heart broke all over again. You didn’t know what you were doing here. He never mentioned anything about seeing someone and Sarah didn’t say anything either, but it was naive of you to think that Joel would remain single. After all, he was a good dad, a good looking man, and a good person overall. 

Before you could look away, you heard Sarah scream your name, which Joel turned to look over at you. His eyes slightly widened and he pulled away from the woman he had just kissed, acting like he had just gotten caught red-handed. 

You gave him a small smile and turned to face Sarah instead, forcing yourself to look happy when deep inside, you wanted to scream, wanted to cry, wanted to just leave his house. 

“Happy birthday, sweet girl,” you smiled, seeing her wrap herself in a towel before she hugged you.

“I’m sorry, I’m gonna get you all wet.” 

“That’s okay, get in here.” You said, feeling her wrap her arms around you in a tight embrace. 

“I’m glad you came,” she said, pulling back to look up at you. “I wasn’t sure you would.”

“I would never miss your birthday.” 

Sarah smiled. “Are those for me?” She asked, pointing to your gifts. 

“It sure is, should I set them down anywhere?” 

Sarah nodded. “I think dad wants them inside, away from the water.” 

“Ah, that’s a good point. I’ll be back and then we can catch up, tell me all about this boy you have a crush on.”

She widened her eyes, cheeks blushing almost instantly. “You can’t tell dad.”

You smiled. “You have my word.” You gave her one more hug before walking back inside the house, biting the inside of your cheek as you set the gifts down onto the table where the other gifts were. You brought a hand to wipe at your face, catching the fallen tears in your fingertips. Now you understood what Joel must have felt when you told him that you were going on a date. 

As you turned around, you felt Joel’s hands reach out to rest on your hips, bumping into his chest. 

“Still clumsy, I see,” he mumbled.

You cleared your throat, not wanting to look up at him as you took a step back. “Guess so.” 

“I’m glad you made it.”

“Wouldn’t miss it,” you replied.

“Listen–”

“You don’t have to explain yourself to me,” you said, finally having the courage to look up at him. “If you’re happy, I’m happy.” 

Joel nodded, his eyes looking at you from top to bottom. He thought keeping his distance would lessen the feelings he had for you; and it worked, for a while, but now that you were standing in front of him looking just as beautiful and stunning as you did when you first met, Joel felt all those feelings come rushing back. 

“It’s new,” Joel murmured. 

“Good for you, Joel.” you smiled sadly, looking over his shoulder and back towards the backyard. “You have anything to drink?” 

“Water? Soda?”

“Anything stronger?” 

Joel nodded, bringing you to the kitchen and grabbing a beer from the fridge. He opened it for you and reached out to hand it to you. You smiled your thanks and took it from his hand, your fingers brushing against his and almost instantly, you both felt the same surge of electricity rush through your veins at the touch. 

“Thank you,” you whispered. 

“I should get back to the grill before those burgers burn.” 

“Of course. I have some catching up to do with your daughter.” 

Joel bit his lower lip. Before the hesitation and thoughts came to mind, he instantly pulled you into a tight hug. Joel’s arms snaked around your waist, feeling your arms move to wrap around his shoulders – just like old times. 

“Thank you for coming,” Joel whispered. 

“Thank you for inviting me…” 

Both of you pulled away to look up at each other, inches separating the both of you. You felt his eyes move to your lips and you moved your eyes to his, but before anything could happen, you heard a quiet clearing of the throat and you both pulled away instantly. 

You turned around to look at Tommy, leaning against the dining table with a knowing smirk. 

“Who’s watching the food?” Tommy smirked. 

“I was just about to check on it,” Joel replied, tightening his jaw. 

“And I was just about to go and talk to Sarah.” You grabbed your beer and walked past Tommy and towards the backyard, finding Sarah almost instantly.

Tommy looked over his shoulder at you before he turned his attention on Joel. 

“What are you thinkin’?” Tommy asked.

“I’m thinkin’ that I’m still in love with her.” Joel answered.

Okay, so let me ramble abt making the last comic, cause that was an absolute behemoth to work on, and I have a lot of thoughts in my head. Man, I don't know how those webtoon artists do it every week. They scare me now.

This is super long btw, so get cozy if you want to read :]

Starting off, I actually got this idea from my lil 'ol diary I keep by my tableside :] I like writing down what I feel so I can see it in a more concrete(?) manner, helps me cope i think. One time, I really did cry for someone because I guess I just really liked them a lot. Having crushes is fun, but catching feelings isn't.

I always get this giddy feeling of being head over heels for someone. Every interaction is so exciting. Intoxicating even. And I couldn't get enough of it, but after that few seconds of bliss I immediately think to myself that all these scenarios in my head will never happen, not in a million fucking years. I just preemptively reject myself without ever telling the person what I feel. I know what the outcome will be anyway, and I'm afraid of what will happen if I did say anything. It's just too risky.

The second half is completely made up tho, I will never ever kidnap someone... unless? (For legal reasons, I will have to clarify that this is a joke, Thank you.)

Now onto the comic itself!

The composition is probably the easiest and the most fun part. I love, love, love, how versatile you can be in the webtoon format. Figuring out how to transition the panels is super fun, and it sucks that most of the webcomics I see on tapas or webtoon, etc. are just sticking to those boring box formulas over and over again when it has so much potential, although there are exceptions like, for example, Lore Olympus. While it has it's fair share of flaws when in comes to other aspects, you can't deny the artist's talent esp when it comes to knowing how to place the character in an illustration, (again) the compositioning etc etc. (ep. 8 is p good. They stick to the box stuff during dialogue but gets more experimental in some parts. I haven't been keeping up with it, so idk any other good eps)

One of my only big regrets is that I wish I had made the space between the '...but I love it." and "And soon..." parts longer. I think it changed scenarios way too fast and your eye immediately moves onto the next piece of text,, but eh, it is what it is, and I can't be bothered to edit it so ig I gotta learn to live with it.

It's still messy in,, a lot of parts actually, and I still can't do lineart to save my life, but i kinda tried just cleaning up the sketches instead???? I mean, it kinda works, but it isn't really smooth so,, And there are small mistakes here and there that I could've fixed or colored stuff in properly or whatever. But at that point, I'm just done with it. No more. Am tired and want to draw other shit now. Maybe boobs n dicks n pussy-

Oh actually i have another comic in my wip folder that I started before the sad Kylar crying one. Here's some of the thumbnails for it:

the fucking lisa simpson looking ass face just cracks me up every time I see it LMAOQJSJQJ I just wanted to show it to u but stay tuned for that ig

I eventually want to make little comics like this for other characters as well! Like Sydney, who is also one of my favorites cause of the whole religion aspect to them, and I would like to tackle that topic with yet another super personal experience of mine that for some reason I'm comfortable with sharing with a bunch of ppl lmao

I also really want to make a full on nsfw one, like gut rearranging, carnal fucking, hardcore banging,, ok ill stop. But I do need to do more,, uh, "research" on that,, i swear it's research, i have no clue how im gonna draw it. Hell, I already struggle with drawing people fucking and imagine adding cool transitions to that. Guess even my masochistic tendencies extend to this shit too.

And I think that's pretty much it? I'll probably just stick to b and w or monotone with a few accent colors because i just know that it would break me if i did a fully colored one.

Okay, thank you for reading this ramble, I'll go ahead and answer some asks now,, Here's your prize though!

Jack's Master TV Show Rec List Pt 1:

Detective Shows🔍

Hey guys! So I'm gonna start a little rec list of detective (and detective adjacent...i.e. I consider federal agents and cops to be included) shows that I give my highest regards. Basically, I'll be adding one show per day/possibly every other day/possibly every week depending on how it's going lol to a master list of recs part 1 (later I'll be doing lists for fantasy shows, scifi, etc). Note that some shows may cross genres/be included on several lists. Each time I add a show, I'll be giving my 2 cents on what makes it special and list-worthy. So stay tuned! Feel free to reblog with a list-worthy show that fits the category if you'd like! The goal here is to recommend as many awesome shows as possible to keep the characters (and ourselves tbh) alive!!

And so...without further ado...give it up for the very first rec on the list...

Case Closed!

This is a CLASSIC...and if you have not seen it by any chance at all...then I recommend booking it to your nearest device to start on S1. To let you know just how classic it is...I've seen this show referenced in at least three of my favorite Asian dramas...and I am 100% sure there are more!! To give a comparison, Case Closed is popular in Asia like Scooby Doo is in America. Everyone knows this show (or should). And for good reason! Here's a bit about the show for beginners:

It's about a teenage Sherlock Holmes-esk detective who gets poisoned and instead of dying turns into a kid again...while keeping his teenage sleuthy mind intact...whaaaaat??! Ik...that in itself should make you wanna watch haha!

It's an anime...but even non-anime stans will like it. Case and point: me. Not a huge anime fan...but the style to me is beautiful. It's kinda more on the cartoon side of anime...I guess?? Basically it's not too over the top with fan service and sparkly graphics/or gore. That stuff is present...but it's not nearly as intense as other animes. It's tasteful. And more than that, the music and theme songs are so gorgeous that they're tear-inducing. I still blast them in my car on long road trips lol.

All of the characters (side and main) are amazing. From the Junior Detective League (oh and I watch Case Closed dubbed btw...both subbed and dubbed are great for this show...but I grew up with dubbed, so that's the one I prefer) to Rachel and Richard and Harley Hartwell...I could literally list every character here, but I will not. There's too many!! They all have their own complex characters and motivations. Seriously...I'm floored with how deep even the seemingly nobody characters get. It's AMAZING!!

Finally, cause this is getting sooooo lengthy...Case Closed has one of the best romance plot lines I have ever seen. The relationship between Jimmy (Conan) and Rachel is one for the history books...if it's not already in them. I don't read too many of those lol. They're like Romeo and Juliet...but throw out Romeo and Juliet cause they kinda suck honestly...and add a soccer star, teenage super sleuth stuck in a little kid's body and a kick butt karate-wielding teenager who's honestly the most relatable female anime character I've ever seen. They are great and so freaking adorable that just thinking about them makes me wanna hejkjxnxjxklslsl

Anyways, give a round of applause for our first detective show rec...Case Closed!! A 5/5 Star 🌟rating for this one for sure!!

Voiceplay Visuals: If I Were A Rich Man/Girl

This video was released on the 24th of July, 2021, and is the first guest feature of the amazingly-talented miss Ashley Diane, as well as Cesar's first video as an actual Voiceplay member! I'm not entirely sure how much I'll actually have to say about this video, but there was no doubt in my mind about me making a post for it, so let's dive right in!

A few things right off the bat:

1. It's cool how the screen "opens up" at the start of the video; I believe Voiceplay did the same thing or something similar with In The Air Tonight iirc (and both videos end with the screen "closing back up" as well)

2. Definitely a bit more of a creative video format for Voiceplay, with the completely-white setting and the cuts between different shots of the vocalists - it's not got choreography or any overly-complex direction (probably), sure, but it's not exactly a "everyone stays standing or sitting in one spot" video either. Shoutout to Layne, who was in charge of this video as well as the arrangement!)

3. Oh my god Geoff is wearing a shirt that isn't just black, white, or blue! 😂 (listen, I make fun of him because I love him, but also you know I kinda sorta have a point!)

(Bonus note: Layne and Tony are credited with costuming in the description, so clearly there was in fact some deliberate thought put into everyone's outfits)

Okay but for real, everybody is styling in this video! (Also one could argue that technically Geoff has the most "simplistic" outfit overall in this video (which wouldn't be for the first time), but I shan't hold it against him)

Also, related to the first image and not the one above, but I'm pretty sure Eli is wearing the same hat he wore in Bang!

Oh yeah and Geoff has a lot of lovely smiles in this video, so, y'know, I'm a fan 😁

(Also peep the bit of grey coming through on one side of his fringe/bangs <3 )

"Please" (SIR-!)

This is a very random thing to care about but whose hand is this? I thought it might be Ashley's, but no, she's got yellow manicured fingernails in this one (very cute btw) (oh and also her top is long-sleeved). It's not Cesar's hand, obviously, and I'm 95% sure it's not Geoff's hand (especially since there's nothing on the wrist. it could be Layne's hand, but does he still have that wrist tattoo on his right hand? So basically, either it's Eli's hand, or one of their behind-the-scenes helpers (Kathy maybe?)

Queen. Love her

(Also shoutout to both Eli and Layne for the lighting design on this one!)

I'm assuming these are all fake dollar bills? (Also how do you do shots like this? It looks very cool. A fan/blower? Someone dropping/throwing them down from above?)

Cesar: *Looking all cool and suave with the dollar bills*

Geoff: Ooooo money! :0 :D (turn your brightness all the way up!)

(I love him)

Go off, Eli! (I like his outfit too!)

Get it, Cesar 💅

🤔

Crazy how lighting colouration can alter the perceived colours of things. Ashley's top doesn't look yellow at all here!

"what?" (girl you know dang well what!)

(I knew this moment would be worth at least a couple of screencaps and it did not disappoint! 😁)

Honestly between Ashley and Geoff in this video, serving Looks (different kinds, though both as powerful), and vocals, well, if I wasn't bi already...

And that's the video! Certainly not a standard Voiceplay video, but frankly does VP even have a "standard" these days? Their music videos can be literally anything, near impossible to predict. Also, this is a killer arrangement from Layne, and one so dang complex that even though I've by and large mastered the lyrics, this is one of the few where I've been trying to memorise the arrangement, but there are bits I forget or can't replicate the right way (not that I can go as high as Ashley can (that freaking riff! girl!) and definitely not as low as Geoff, but y'know). Stay tuned for my next Voiceplay Visuals post! It's probably gonna be a big one!
