#ok also i was gonna talk about the cut off dates for the songs and how i wanted it to be 1978 because that's when randall's death happened

[stonedsoul]

YOU LITERALLY MADE THIS POST A YEAR AGO ABOUT GILES X ETHAN SET TO TWIN SIZED MATTRESS but i thought i was alone in thinking this.

“It's no big surprise you turned out this way/When they close their eyes and prayed you would change/And they cut your hair, and sent you away/You stopped by my house the night you escaped/With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay/You said, "Hey man, I love you, but no fucking way!"

LIKEEEEE…that’s literally about giles returning to the council after Randalls death. Im chewing fiberglass. Sorry .

AHHH SORRY I TOOK AGES TO RESPOND TO THIS ANON BUT YOU'RE SO RIGHT!!!! literally them it makes me feel insane. sooo glad you get it too 'i wanna contribute to the chaos' um. do i even need to explain why that's literally ethan hello.

my main ethan/giles playlist is on my old spotify account and going through some reshuffling atm so while i may share it at some point i can't now... HOWEVER i did recently start a playlist of more. time accurate songs that i could see them acc listening to, so if anyone is interested in that here it is 👀and will keep being updated hopefully 👍

but like. anon literally just listen to sway by the rolling stones. literally ethan's song i promise you

[silentstyx]

okay saw that you also write for ethan morgan and could you. write a siren!reader thats like SUPER into him and he finds it unnerving (hes not used to girls Actually liking him) and he agrees to go on a date w her?? you can choose where!

"Bright like blue" ~ Ethan Morgan x Siren! Reader

tw! siren

erm idk which episode had the siren i cant find it 😖 i was gonna rewatch it but nvm ig, anyways ik what sirens are so i'll js thug it out. Also this guy is such a geek that he fs does dates at his house and gets his family to leave the house. he's also broke. i hate this.

(backstory: friends w sarah/erica they knew you were a siren, told the group thats how everyone knows)

Ethan kept his distance from her, to the best of his abilities at least. The thought of her luring someone out and killing them just by using her voice was.... frightening to say the least.

Yet, every time she flashed him the smile he remembered the kind of person she was. That she wouldn't make random men fall in love with her and then lure them out to sea and drown them! Right?

He knew you liked him, Sarah told him awhile ago. He didn't know what to do though, a girl hasn't ever liked him before. He's never even been on a date. I mean he's never really been too interested in dating until last year! Except he would be lying if he said you weren't attractive, I mean you're one of the prettiest people he's seen. Like ever.

"Hey, Ethan wait up" You called for him.

You were going to the same class together, he already knew that. It scared him, but he knew. Why was he so terrified of you? He knew you wouldn't actually kill him, but every once in a while he'll catch a glimpse of a scale or gill thats usually well hidden and it freaks him out.

"you wanna walk to class with-" He cut you off before you could finish your sentence.

"Do you wanna go on a date?" He asks looking at you, "wi-with me! i mean... do you want to go on a date with me..."

The last part of that was less of a question and more of anxiety and muttering. Yet, you could only smile at him and his dorky self.

"yeah sure" you respond, contently.

He was confused, why was he more anxious about this than you? You're the one that likes him! He doesn't even know if he likes you! Ok, he does like you a little bit... but why aren't you freaking out? Jesus just answer her!

"okay, uhm uh do you wanna just meet me at my house then..?" He was trying to play cool but there was clear anxiety in his voice. His stutter with every other word.

"yeah, sounds cool. So... do you wanna walk to class together or what?" You say, almost teasingly. With that same smile you always give him. God, you're pretty.

He just nods his head and you guys walk and talk with each other to class. You were doing the majority of talking, but you were so funny and so interesting. He hadn't ever talked to you for this long before. Once you reached the class your shared giggles died down.

After sitting through the hour long class he was thinking about what to wear, he had a good idea of what it would be. In the halls you went with Sarah and Erica while he went with Benny and Rory. You both just happened to be talking about the same thing though.

You came over an hour after school ended, there were no cars in the drive way. It looked as if no one was home, except the lights were on. You knocked on the door.

He answered wearing his and blue collar shirt with his formal pants. He looked at your somewhat formal (dress/suit/etc) attire.

"You look great" he says with a nervous smile.

"Thanks," you say with a genuine voice, "you look... geeky"

You both chuckle and he invites you in, offering his hand to you. You grab his hand and he gets a vision of water and a dock and a song.

You being a siren this freaks him out and he lets go of you instantly. While you just look at him confused, why did he drop your hand so fast? He had finally just stopped acting weird around you, kind of. Is he going to start again?

He leads you to the dining room where he set up candles and music, with food that looks surprisingly edible.

The room looked nice but, you had to poke fun.

"Everything looks great, but." Your voice trailed off at the end, teasing him.

He looked at you nervously, "but?"

"Take off the sweater vest. It's killing the mood." You say, playfully making fun of him. Lightly laughing.

He just rolled his eyes, taking off the vest and throwing it somewhere behind the two of you.

You two were talking and laughing the whole night, besides eating the enormous amounts of food that the two of you happened to finish somehow?

"Hey, I wanna show you something c'mon!" You say excitedly, standing up while wiping your face.

He looked at you confused, was this the thing in his vision? What were you showing him? He got up slowly, following you out.

You finally both arrived, hand-in-hand, walking to a somewhat abandoned dock. It didn't look old and dangerous but there were no boats or any signs of recent human life. You leave him and go to the edge of the dock, sticking your feet over. Humming some olden siren tune.

Same song as in his vision, thus making him panic. He stays off the deck completely, scared of what you might do. You turn around, suggesting him to come over as you scoot over. Making room for him. Kicking your feet in the water. He walks over, slowly, to sit with you. He takes off his shoes and socks and puts his feet in the water. Kicking with your feet in the water.

Maybe some visions aren't bad.

anything like this u can decide i love whatever you write !<3

Hey beautiful, thank you for requesting, your lovely comment made my day! ( I was having a difficult day) so with lots of love, I will do this for you!

Song recommendation: Popular by the weekend

Popular

Paring:hyunjin!x!reader!

Warning: fluff

Your POV

Mr. popular passes through the corridors, his scent leaving traces behind him, leaning against my locker my eyes follow him and walk all the way outside, his smile flashing to his friend talking about something only them will know.

"Hello? Are you listening to me?" my best friend catches my attention from him "Mhm? Yeah I am" My eyes draw to her now

"so are you gonna go?" she asked seriously "Where?" I asked confused

"I JUST TOLD YOU" Her frustration lands on me "Sorry I didn't pay attention" I truthfully say "To my house" She sighs "My stupid brother is going to bring Ashley over to the house and you know she annoys my ass like I can't stand watching her being so stupid with my brother like she is all over him and-" I cut her off before she explodes

"Hey, calm down girl it's ok, I will be there for you" I calm her down "Thanks, but you know... it's not because I'm jealous of my brother is just that she is such a pick me and every fucking girl is gushing over him and it's just so annoying" I understand her, I wouldn't like seeing my brother with some other girl in my house about every day

"do you know if they are dating?" my curious heart asks feeling a ting of jealousy "I don't know, I hope not"

We get to class and sit down, I look over at Hyunjin who is sitting in front of me, oh my poor little heart, when will you stop loving him?

4:40 pm

Yeji and I get ready to head to her house, we walk outside the school's door and feel the nice weather hitting our faces "Ain't it lovely Yeji" I smile loving this weather and wishing it would be like this everyday

"the weather is nice" she smiles and closes her sweater, "how about we watch the new movie that just came out 2 weeks ago?" she asks me "What movie?" I ask curiously "Well the tale of the nine-tailed fox" She answered my question "Oh, the one where Lee Dong-wook appears?" she nods as we get excited about thirsting over a 40-year-old man.

We get to her house open the door and leave my stuff in a chair "Let me get the popcorn ready" I say heading to the kitchen "ok girl ima put your stuff in my room and get everything ready" she shouts from the door already hearing her steps as she walks through the stairs

"hey y/n" Hyunjin smiles at me while making something to eat for himself "Hey Hyunjin" my heart drops as I didn't see him at first

It's normal for me to be at their house so he is accustomed to seeing me around here, we have known each other since I was 5 and he was 6, Yeji and I knew each other from kindergarten and we always used to play with her brother in my house or her house, so we become friends a long time ago, but I feel like it all changed since we entered high school since I was 15 we don't talk as much as before, just small talks, no more movie nights or baking time with him like we sorta got uncomfortable with each other, he also became Mr, popular at school so I believe he feels better than us now. Now I'm 17 and he is 18 and yeah we are in the same grade because his dumbass failed chemistry in 10th grade, obviously, he was so busy fucking his ex-girlfriend and doing her work for her than concentrating on himself that he was swept away 1 whole year because of it.

"How are you doing?" he asked me smiling at me and looking back down at his sandwich "I'm doing good and you?" I ask looking the popcorn to put it in the microwave. "I've been good, what are you guys doing today?" he asked me to make another of our famous small talks "We are going to watch a movie and maybe I'm staying over" I smiled and continued doing my work. "nice, lucky you, I have to do a project for history fro next week" "ah yeah the ones about the empires?" I ask "Yeah, I got put in with Ashley" he whispers and rolls his eyes at me showing his annoyance, and I laugh silently "It would've been better if I got chosen to be with you, you are pretty smart and organized, and we known each other for most of our life" he continues to finish his sandwich. "yeah right? I got chosen with Lia, so it was not bad at all, just her brother is a bit creepy" I say making a weird face remembering her brother and how immature he acts.

"oh yeah Daniel is awful" I nodded and put the popcorn in the microwave not forgetting what he said about me my tummy filled with butterflies, but again I reminded myself I couldn't let these feelings get the best of me, he barely talks to me and yeji would be so mad at me if I ever get to date him.

"But if you ever need me to him in his place please tell me and I will do it with pleasure" he smiles grabs his plate and rubs my head while passing by to the living room.

my cheeks got all red by his touch, I placed my hands over them to soothe them down the popcorn finishes and I get out of the kitchen

"oh Hyuinjin you so funny" I hear a girl exaggerating her laugh, ofc she is here, I feel a bit down and go to Yeji's room.

"everything is ready" I get to her bed and put the bowl in the middle of both of us she starts the movie and we are already melting by seeing Dong Wooks face.

something in me doesn't let me concentrate on the movie and a tinge of jealousy gets to me, it should've been me who was with Hyun-jin right now, not Ashley.

7:24pm

"May I join" Someone opens the door and looks at Yeji with pleading eyes "No go fuck yourself" She stretches and lays down in another position, so I move aside and pat the side of my bed to let Hyunjin join us "See she's nice, unlike you?" he says getting on the bed sticking his tongue out at her "no y/n why did you let him in!" she groans while saying it getting annoyed and moving to the side of the bed to give me more space, he lays on his stomach and hugs a small pillow and gets near me, his head touching my arm of how close he is to me.

Butterflies run through my stomach as I try to control my breathing so I do not blush.

15min later

"He's not that even good looking," He remarks making both of our heads look at him "Shut up you dickhead, he is the most handsome guy to ever exist" She throws a pillow at him, but he throws it back, sitting up and getting comfortable back in the sheets, now sitting like I've been doing this whole time, but our arms connect he looks down on me and smiles, I smile back and quickly look back at the movie, now I do feel my cheeks blush

"did you see how hot Lee Yeon's brother is?" yeji asked me "Yes Rang has that type of bad boy vibe right? but he is so gentle on the inside like he is so cute" I say as we comment on the series. But I feel Hyuinjins head on my shoulder hugging my arm trying to get comfortable on the bed, Yeji gives her back to me and I see her sleepy eyes trying to fight the urge to fall asleep, I pat her head gently making sure she gets some rest but I feel Hyun-jin caressing my arm with his thumb up and down. I feel his breath get more relaxed but I tense up feeling nervous about him.

I try to ignore it and continue watching the movie "Yeji look at the puppy" I pout looking at how cute he is "yeji?" I called her again but I heard no response from her "Did she fall asleep already?" he asked me

"mhm, I think she did" I try to shake her but she does not react, hating that she left me alone with her brother again.

"mmh ok, I'm going for something to eat wanna come?" I nod and get out of bed with him turning the TV and lights off for yeji to sleep as we walk out to the kitchen.

"what are you craving?" he asks me "What about some ramyeon?"

"Sure that sounds good" he started to boil the water while I took the packets out

"so... how did the project go? I asked curiously about the 2 of them

"it was... ok I guess, I kinda ended up doing it all by myself and she was very annoying btw," he said a bit disappointed.

"well I'm sorry to hear that," I said relieved to hear that it didn't go well between them, he got next to me to grab the cups of noodles, and our hands brushed each other, our eyes met and our bodies froze

He pecked my lips and stared into my eyes waiting for my reaction, my eyes widened and my mouth gaped looking at him in shock, but I didn't say anything staying in the same position.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't done that without asking you, I-I thought t-that maybe you wanted i-it"he stutters nervously looking everywhere but my eyes.

"W-why did you kiss me?" I asked in shock, his face in fear "I'm sorry y/n I couldn't stop myself I don't know what came over me, I-Ii just really like y-you and-"

"You WHAT?!"

"I like you y/n, I have since we were young" I stare at him in pure shock

"wait so wait what? so you like me? And you tell me until now?"

"what do you mean until now? I was scared you were going to reject me"

"I would never reject you Hyunjin, I've liked you since I was like 8," I said a bit angry that this didn't happen before

"YOU LIKE ME?!?!" he raises his voice in shock and joy

"yeah I do" I get a bit shy saying it out loud

he cups my cheeks and kisses me delicately his lips feeling soft, tasting him on my lips is kind of my new obsession.

when we separate ourselves in our eyes we see our future we just started.

and that is how I started to date Mr popular.

[raguonmynieceandnephew]

EPIC THE MUSICAL ACT ONE SONGS RANKED BY ME

The first act is out and recency bias towards saga 5 has passed. let's go lesbians

20 - POLYPHEMUS

I would like to express that just because she is last she isn't bad, ok? The worst Epic song is better than your fave's entire discography, let's not get it twisted. That being said, Polyphemus is by far the weakest for me. It's just too slow, and like, of course it is, it's the build up for the plot defining moment of the show. It has to be slow to contrast with the explosion that will come right after. But it's soooo much and so not the vibe for me. Still love her tho

19 - LUCK RUNS OUT

Not gonna lie, this song is only this low because they changed the "We could be caught of guard" verse. It was SOOOOOOO much better than the melodic version, like, that was a giga downgrade it really upset me and my homegirls ngl

18 - WARRIOR OF THE MIND

Again, a queen, a trendsetter, a trailblazer, we love athena, but her songs in the beginning of the musical are kinda not my thing. Warrior of the mind sounds so weird to me in its saga, i struggle making it fit in my head.

17 - STORM

Wait, wait hear me out, hear me out! Don't shoot! It lacks flavor. It lacks a spice, it lacks something it. I really wasn't feeling it much in the tiktok teaser days of this one, and while the full release is good (again, there is no such thing as a bad epic song) storm left me wanting more, not in a too good of a way. It felt like there was something that needed to be there, a je ne sais quoi, idk

16 - SURVIVE

I think i might get doxxed for this list, but it is my truth. TBH we reached a point in which i have no qualms with the songs. Survive is definitely not bad but like, it gets outshone by literally everyone else in the list so it goes here.

15 - THERE ARE OTHER WAYS

Ooooooh boy. I hate that she is so low. I do, I really do. The second verse just doesn't do it for me as much as the first, and it sucks because the intro and the duet are a fucking masterclass.

14 - PUPPETEER

The numbers are treatcherous because, yes 14 is in the lower spectrum but like, we are already in No Skip territory. I didn't think I would like Puppeteer but the intro with Ody and Eurylochus is simply perfection. The feels, the almost love confession that was cut off, the wordplay is just INSANE, love her

13 - THE UNDERWORLD

What do I need to say about Underworld that wasn't already said in every corner of this website? Putting your IRL mom to play Anticlea is VILE, 10/10 fuck you jorge

12 - KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE

She was gagging me since tiktok. Perfection. Bonus points for being Penelope and Telemachus first appearances in the show (SHOW ME THE TWINK, JORGE). Also, "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODYSSEUS OF ITHACAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

11 - MY GOODBYE

I talked shit about athena's sons in warrior of the mind and I was about to put this in 16th place wtf, it didn't feel right so i did a re-listen and holy shit this song is phenomenal, omg THE JUST A MAN LINE? CINEMA

10 - OPEN ARMS

Steven Dookie, the man that you are. This song is so fucking good, holy shit. It's cute, and fun, It's everything. It encapsulates why the first quarter of a musical is always my favorite, because of all the setups, the motifs, the weapons it creates to shred our hearts

09 - REMEMBER THEM

She is perfection, she is serving pauleira, she is giving me everything I want. By far the best outro in the show, argue with your mothers.

08 - FULL SPEED AHEAD

The harmonies, the character intros, the simplicity, the naïveté, the HARMONIES, YES, AGAIN THE HARMONIES. Troy saga best saga, and if you disagree you can eat my ass

07 - DONE FOR

This song is what truly hooked into epic so Just a Man could reel me in. The drama, the irony, the implicit horniness, the fact that i found out they were dating IRL around the time this was announced, truly divine (ha)

06 - NO LONGER YOU

Wig? Snatched. This was my favorite song for a while, I even auditioned for it lmao. Deffo my favorite one to sing, still. Mason DEVOURED this track, and the prophecy? Odysseus's scream? Setting up Monster, AKA one of the best things in this show? Gagged me, your honor.

05 - THE HORSE AND THE INFANT

We are reaching greatness here you guys. The duet with Zeus gives me chills every time. I just know this + Just a Man as INTROS (REALLY LIKE, THIS IS THE INTRO) are gonna make pussies throb and ppl cry in the theater

04 - WOULDN'T YOU LIKE

Hermes is my favorite character in the show, and this (and Dangerous) are my most anticipated songs EVER. The tiktok snippets really did it for me.

03 - MONSTER

I mean, come on. Do I even have to say anything? When he quoted Poseidon. The venting about all he lost, THE CONFIRMATION THAT HE DID, IN FACT, KILLED THE BABY. HE BECOMING THE MAN TIRESIAS SAW IN HIS PROPHECY. I MEAN, COME ON

02 - RUTHLESSNESS

Chills. Literal chills. When this song dropped I was INSUFFERABLE. Ask anyone close to me. She was on repeat for WEEKS. Steven Rodriguez's voice is so fucking insane, so fucking SEXY (I ain't afraid to say it bitch, that man can get it). But like, Poseidon as a character, Odysseus being an idiot, "Ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves" like HOLY SHIT. And now, all i can think about is how Get in The Water will sound in his voice. Just thinking about it gives me chills. I just know he is going to devour it.

01 - JUST A MAN

Remarkable, showstopping, absolutely the best song ever made. The lyricism, the production, the poetry, vocal performance, I really don't have much to say because it's not needed. All of my favorite moments in this soundtrack, unreleased songs included, are moments in which this song is referenced.

The "Monster" chants in The Underworld and in Monster, "after all you're just a man" in My Goodbye, the entire song of "Monster" is he becoming the Monster he is asking about in this song, like, DO YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS SONG? My life's dream is to go to broadway once to see this fucking song live, and i know it will be life changing. Just a Man is the most beautiful thing ever.

[dootiexcupcake]

I was wondering if you would be willing to write a Taki x Reader but the reader is K’s little sibling. I feel like K would be so protective of both of them 😂

Hiii !! Tysm for the ask I appreciate it 🖤srry for the late response btw!

But omg I absolutely love this concept of Kei’s little sibling crushing on Taki it’s so cute 😭

hope u enjoy 🖤🖤

I see Kei giving the most AUDACIOUS side eye when you start gushing over Taki because as you go on and on and on about how sweet Taki is, how funny he is, and how adorable he is, all K can think about is all the embarrassing and dumb stuff Taki has done.

And that’s only counting the things Taki has done in his presence…

Kei has no idea why his lovely little sibling has massive heart eyes for Taki but no matter how much K tries to get you to broaden your horizons (as he would put it), he can’t get you to shake this crush off.

After some time of you and Taki talking back and forth to one another he asked you to go roller skating with him! After you finished bouncing off the walls about It, you asked Kei to drop you off at the roller rink and to say K was shocked would be an understatement

“So he asked you to go out with him????”

“And you said yes??¡!?”

“And you meant it¿¿??”

Needless to say, it took a LOT of convincing on your end for Kei to let you guys to go out together. BUT on one condition….

Kei has to go with you as a chaperone and stay close by you two the whole time 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾.

“Moms orders, of course <3”

Although it was painfully obvious who’s order that really was, nothing was gonna stop you from going on this date/not date/hangout.

^ yeah, Kei is adamant about this being anything BUT a friendly gathering so there were some rules he put in place:

- no hand holding unless you are about to fall (But it’s only ok if you are gonna fall. Taki is on his own)

- no hugging

- no gazing longingly at one another

- when love songs play you both need to be OUT the rink

The rule list got cut short when K noticed the death stare you gave him so he made the very wise decision for you all to head inside!

Once you guys got in there (and Kei paid for your skates because he’s such a good big bro~) you and Taki could not WAIT to head to the rink and start skating.

Though you somehow forgot the fact that, ahem, you can’t skate. So guess what happens when you mix wheels strapped to your feet + a very clumsy, and let’s be honest, DISTRACTED you?

“Whoops!”

You yelped as you felt yourself slipping and tumbling backwards.

Luckily for you, Taki is quite used to roller skating and he came in just the knick of time to catch you as you fall! You looked up at him and laughed a bit to yourself and also out of bashfulness because, ‘oh my gosh Taki is H oL DING me right now don’t panic don’t panic don-‘.

“You alright?” Taki asks when you finally manage to stand upright, thanks to Taki offering his shoulders as support for your hands. You nod your head and thank him for what he did, but you did not notice the second death glare of the night from Kei…

“What was that!?” He says out loud to himself..like a normal person. K is so upset that you two broke literally ALL of the rules in a single moment, the audacity! He gets ready to roll over there and separate you both but he stops when he hears your cheery laugh and your eyes crest from a happy smile.

Kei loves seeing you like that.

He thinks for a moment and realizes that Taki really makes you happy. And it’s not like Kei doesn’t trust Taki, he’s known the kid for so long, and that might just be why he doesn’t want you with him. Funny enough he views Taki like another younger sibling that he can joke around and bicker with. But when it comes to stuff like this he’s lost and just immediately goes into over protective mode. He knows the both of you are young and he doesn’t want either of you to get hurt.

“But it’s not about me, now is it?” He says to himself (quietly this time) as he stares at you and Taki for a while and sighs. His kids are growin’ up, and he knows that the only way for them to grow and flourish is if they do it on their own. Not with a strong overbearing hand.

Kei turns around and rolls back to his original place behind the side lines and watches on with a small smile. When you guys are done he pull you and Taki in for a tight hug, much to both of your confusion.

But that confusion quickly fades away when K makes an offer neither of you can refuse.

“You guys deserve some lunch, I’m buyin!”

I would love to know more about Ice Princess and Eddie, so I have a couple.of questions if that's ok:

1. What inspired you to write this fic?

2. What's your favourite scene you have written about the?

3. What's her ex deal? He broke up with her and yet he act like such an asshole

Oh, I love this, thank you for asking!! It's gonna be a long one, so I'll keep my answers all under the cut!

I would love love LOVE to answer any more questions about this fic, so if others want to discuss it, PLEASE let's talk about these two for hours <3

There were so many little sources of inspiration for this fic, I fear I could go on and on about them all day! I thought a lot about the movies Can't Buy Me Love and 10 Things I Hate About You once I settled on the popular reader/fake dating idea; they're two of my fav romcoms, so they informed a lot of the tone for this fic. I'm also obsessed with having music to pair with my writing, so I used songs to inspire certain moods - Dio's Mystery is a particular big one for me. To a less extent, I also used my own teenage experience as inspiration - in my senior year, I felt really stuck and dissatisfied, so I tried to make drastic changes (some good, some bad) just to find who I wanted to be. Also, being 18 the entirety of my senior year made me act out more because I was ~sO gRoWn Up~ and I gave that trait to Ice Princess as well. If you're interested, I did create a more in-depth inspo list way back in May that's probably due for an update!

I'm so torn between a few scenes as my favs, I'm terrible at narrowing it down 😭 Their kiss at the Halloween party was actually one of the earliest things I ever wrote for this fic, so I'm particularly fond of it. But I'm also OBSESSED with their kiss in the cafeteria, their fight under the bleachers and when they make up after, the day at the arcade... Also, the epilogue, which I'll post soon, I'm simply holding off to torture all of us I guess lol

Okay, so hopefully I can explain this because it makes sense in my head but idk if it'll make sense written down? Basically, what it boils down to is that Duncan can't stand the idea that Ice Princess is actually happy and better off without him. I imagine he had high expectations for their relationship, but it turned out to be pretty bland and she was probably mean to him constantly, so of course he'd want to break up. But then to see her bounce back from it with Eddie Munson of all people? Oh, Duncan can't stand that she starts to look happier, that she seems to be acting sweet with the freak, that she doesn't even seem to be bothered by their break up. It's that petty jealousy that stirs in some people when they see their exes happier now than they were in the past. Also, I just wanted that extra bit of drama because teenage boys are stupid like that <3

Red Flags (Corinthian x gn! Reader)

A/n: ok, so I recently got obsessed with this song and decided to write story inspired by it. Also, reader has no morals so don't complain.

The date started off so well Begin my night not expecting the fright of my life She was perfect from what I could tell How could I not see the dangers right in front of me

When you met for the first time, Corinthian seemed to be perfect and your next dates only confirmed that your impression was correct. He was charming and handsome - sometimes you felt that he was out of your league and wondered why out of all people, he decided to date you. But he didn't let you doubt for long; Corinthian was a very caring partner and you could see he was captivated by you. He always listened what you were telling him, whether it was about your day or your passions. You spent a lot of time together, sometimes going to a date to a concert or club, or just relaxing in home, watching movies and eating junk food. Altough Corinthian was often leaving for a few days (he claimed it was connected with his work; you believed him even if sometimes you worried that he has other lover), he called you everyday and he brought little gifts for you from his trips. One day, you were laying together on the couch and you were talking about true crime. That was another thing you loved about Corinthian - he didn't judge you and he didn't call your interests weird like many other people. Well, somebody likes comedies and hiking, you liked horror and histories about serial killers. People should respect each other hobbies.

Human Centipede, Human Centipede I think that I'm gonna get murdered tonight * Human Centipede, please God save me I think that's a red flag, I don't want to get stabbed

"...anyway, Chikatilo cut out eyes of his victims but it was for practical reasons, if you can call them that. There was a superstition that the image of the last thing a dying person saw stayed on their eyes. He just didn't want to leave an evidence. But I have no idea why that killer they recently talk about so much, takes victim's eyes. Is it a kind of a trophy?" Corinthian changed position and sat on the couch. He was hesitating. You were close and he wanted to tell you the truth about himself for some time but he was afraid that you would get scared and try to run away. And he would have to kill you. But at the other hand - you liked to listen about murders so maybe you would take it well. "I think I can answer your question. I have to tell you something" "What, that you are this famous killer?" You chuckled but then Corinthian took off his glasses and you looked into his eyes. Or where the eyes were supposed to be. Instead of them, he had two little mouths, full of teeth. "I'm a Nightmare. I escaped from the land of Dreaming a long time ago. And answering your question... yes, I am a serial killer. Or collector, if you prefer" "What do you do with the eyes?" "I eat them" "Oh" something clicked in your mind and you asked "That's why you were leaving the town for a few days?" He nodded. You had an inner turmoil. Sure, you liked to read about true crime but dating an eyes eating serial killer was completely different thing. You felt terrified. Was he going to kill you? Maybe not, after all, you knew each other for months and if he wanted to, he could do it earlier. But if you break up with him or try to run away, he will definitely catch you and cut out your eyes. You will become character of new episode of your favourite podcast. You wondered if there's any chance to sneak out and hide from him, but Corinthian would certainly guess what you're trying to do. Maybe if you screamed loud enough, neighbours would come in time...

Stop hiding behind your silly made up red flag To not take a chance on the best relationship you never had Maybe you're right and I'm looking for excuses My heart's got bruises but I'm ready to choose this love

You looked at your boyfriend. He was observing you carefully with his eye-mouths, waiting for your reaction. It reminded you about all the good moments you had together. Your dates, falling asleep on his chest, that one time  you took him to a family dinner... Honestly, nobody treated you as good as Corinthian. He didn't think you were weird, he respected your boundaries, he protected you when some assholes tried to attack you when you were coming home. This was the best relationship you could dream about. Why his murders were supposed to change that? You were happy together and that was all that matter. Hell, it could be quite interesting to date a serial killer. You had so many questions. "Well" you smiled "I guess I shouldn't have talk so much about your competitors. You weren't jealous?" Corinthian relaxed a bit. You took it pretty well, though for a few moments you looked as if you were planning an escape. "I know they are no competition for me" he leaned to you "And I trust you" You kissed him. Your hand was caressing back of his neck while Corinthian pulled you closer to himself. Without breaking the kiss, you shifted so you were sitting on his lap. He slided his hand under your shirt and you shivered under his touch. "Cori?" You broke a kiss when a sudden thought came to you. "Yes?" "If you want... you can eat my eyes" "What?" Even though he witnessed a lot of weird things both in the Dreaming and during his life in the Waking World, Corinthian was surprised. That wasn't a combination of words he ever expected to hear. You shrugged, not sure how to explain your proposition. "Well, if you like them, and I suppose you do, you can take them" "Why would you offer me your own eyes?" "I can live without them and I want to give you pleasure. You're so good for me " Corinthian caressed the skin under your eye with his thumb. Sure, he mentioned that he loved your eyes. They were one of the prettiest he had ever seen and he loved that spark in them when you got excited. To be honest, at the beginning of your relationship he considered eating them. He wanted to see everything you saw, to learn your thoughts and memories. But he eventually decided that it's much better to see them everyday when you look at him. "I appreciate your proposition but I once said that I would never hurt you. I will keep my word" "Okay. Hmmm, I have one more question " you added before Corinthian managed to kiss you again. "Go on" "Can I join you on your trip? Please, just once" "You wanna see the murder?" "Yes. Is it a problem?" "No" Corinthian smiled "Y/n, you're completely unhinged " "Is it a bad thing?" You looked at him. Was a serial killer going to moralize you? "No. To be honest, I think I'm gonna love it"

hey, if you enjoy my work, maybe you would like to support me on ko-fi? Only if you can afford this. It would mean a lot to me<3 link is in the pinned post

olivia rodrigo GUTS review

i didnt write this yesterday bcuz my house power went out cuz of hurricane

______

all american bitch - oh okay so this is a ROCK album. comparing this to traitor is funnnyyy, and this is coming from someone who's fav sour song is traitor. this is abt just like patriotism in a teenage girl gen Z type shit way, like a loyalty to the basic bitch culture lmfao

bad idea right - damn i love this song, the lyrics make me like be like ughhh girl r u fr right now. it's abt her going back to her ex because she's irrationally attached to him, but the way she tells the story is so funny. she's so sassy and it's so extra

vampire - ah yes the taylor swift song. this is very sour olivia but she sounds older, it's abt dating an older guy. the vampire metaphor isn't perfect but i love the "girls your age know better." i don't really take it as alt pop type beat despite the dark metaphors. vocals are absolutely amazing but like i havent listened to the rest of the album so ...

lacy - where is rock... i can imagine this being a skip because it's a very quiet song in a very loud album. this is about being lacy in like the sex appeal way of lace but also fragile and sensitive. i don't really like the melody it's kinda dull but the lyrics are particularly intuitive. OR it's about a person??? news articles r confusing me but lacy the word makes more sense to me

ballad of a homeschooled girl - the song that's everyone talking abt, the ex disney prodigy life. Very rock again and i also take this as a possible gifted kid anthem. yes olivia is a theater kid but no hate theater kids don't listen to olivia rodrigo or any type of mainstream music. sorry i got off topic but yes prodigy toxicity

making the bed - wow okay back to pop. song abt being objectified and used as a housewife, and the irrational behaviors that come with that. working too hard in a relationship, but she's also very quiet and sort of unsure about speaking up.

logical - someone not making sense but it's a super dramatic loud song. similar tones to vampire in terms of intensity and super strong on the men Bad and Stupid annoying bitches. "love is not logical" basically the entire song not super deep

get him back! - yo this album kinda's exhausting. can girl catch a break. this is literally about teenage delusion... i guess it's also about that "sweet revenge" but the entire thing to me reads like absolute teenage girl delusion. her narrative is that he sucks so she's gonna get him back and then break his heart even further. ok sure

love is embarassing - kinda self explanatory. cute song and she sounds like she's trying to cope by lifting herself up. it's like that feeling you get when you deal with drama and you're complaining to your friend but at the end of the day you still have to go out and live your lives so you're just like "yeah it's whatever i guess... but kinda stupid"

the grudge - this is about after a breakup, hearing your ex's voice in your head telling you you're not good enough. but at the same time you hold a grudge against them they are also negatively affecting your life in Your head. "cuts are never equal"

pretty isn't pretty - beauty is pain and yeah i agree with this one heavily. this is abt teenage girl bullshit insecurity, and how all the pretty girls are built from inherent insecurity and not feeling good enough.

teenage dream - song about not being good enough, and getting the teeange dream but not being able to sustain the life. and thinking it's all your fault. i'm also pretty sure this is about her blowing up at 17 and thinking that she'll never achieve the same popularity and success she did with her debut album.

______

conclusion- i hope olivia gets a good man in her life. the most positive song relationship song in this is "bad idea right" and that's well... certainly a stretch. olivia is compared to taylor swift a lot but it's probably much more accurate to compare her to paramore. comparing this album to fearless is crazy, taylor's albums are generally much more positive (regardless of the authenticity of that) while olivia talks a lot about the corruption behind most of gen z's personas, and the issues teens struggle with. but like... girl u deserve better <3

Gutentag! Todays post is a little late, because I’ve been busy, but it was also cut short because of an intense thunderstorm. Also, I accidentally skipped episode 6 and listened to episode 7 so tomorrows post will be episode 6.

Todays Comedy Death Ray is hosted by Scott, and features Jason & Randy Sklar, Paul Rust, and call ins from Paul F Tompkins and Doug Benson. Each episode feels more and more like modern CBB. They add more improv character interviews, but they do still answer Twitter questions and play songs between segments (as always see below) This marks the first appearance of Paul F Tompkins AND Paul Rust! (Two of the best Paul’s in CBB history!)

The episode starts off with Scott bantering with co-hosts Randy and Jason, they talk about sports, and Randy’s new baby. Randy tells a story about how since his brain turned to mush after becoming a dad, he once mistook Diablo Cody for Dakota Fanning and angrily called her a whore.

Next, they get a visit from observational comedian Cal Shipsby (Paul Rust) who does a few of his famous bits about everyday life, including going on a date and receiving blood soup with chicken tendons, and how the government is using memory stealing micro fibers to print money.

After that they talk to Paul F Tompkins over the phone about Best Week Ever which everyone finds out is the last time it’s airing since the show was out on hiatus. After that they take some Twitter questions about children and sports.

Once the twittering is over, Scott is joined by the original writer of “Look who’s talking” Jerry Jimson (Paul Rust) who says he came up with the idea when he looked at his infant son and though “WHAT’RE YOU THINKING!?!”

For the end of the show they take a call from Doug Benson for Doug Loves Movies! He talks about the concept of his 8words or less movie reviews and does one for The Taking of Pelham 123. Doug says is more like “The Counting of Sheep, 1 2 snore” and after Doug is done, Scott, Randy, and Jason discuss the new movie “I Love You, Beth Cooper” with the star of the movie Paul Rust.

My walk was ok, as I said early it was interrupted by an intense lightning storm. When I left for the walk, there were some pretty dark clouds, but I did t really think much of it. After my first lap though, a super loud thunder clap happened and then the whole sky lit up, so I decided to go home early. I was only able to walk about 1 1/2 miles, but I did so in less time than I usually do so that’s good.

Overall while the episode was super funny the score takes a nasty hit since I ended early. 2 out of 5.

Songs featured in todays episode:

Spinal Tap - “Big Bottom”

The Lonely Island - “Who Says We’re Wack”

The Shins - “I’m Never Gonna Wipe My Butt”

Tenacious D - “The Metal”

Weird Al - “Whatever You Like”

Billy Crystal - “You Look Marvelous”

The Glass Beef - “Hawaii”

[tsunreleased]

ok so basically i’m gonna analyze this line by line. i’m insane.

there are two main things i wanna talk about here. 1. the death themes, and 2. the folklore/evermore/atwtmv references.

i’ll start with the death theme because it’s the biggest part of this theory and ties a lot of it together. it’s pretty straightforward and less of a theory, more just an analysis though. also it’s kind of obvious.

the song features her heartbeat throughout the entire thing, save for the very end. “we’re losing [the paitient]” is a pretty common phrase that would be said by doctors right when a patient is about to die, and taylor’s saying it here but about herself. joe wasn’t even observant enough to realize she was dying right in front of him, she had to call her own death just like she was the one to call off the relationship. “now i just sit in the dark and wonder if it’s time [to call it].” this is just the very base of the death themes, they continue through the whole song but they bleed into the next part of my theory so i’ll move on for now.

the next part of my theory is that a lot more of folklore/evermore was about her real life then she let on. also specific lyrics in all too well tmv but those ones are more of a stretch. it’s been said in a lot of the articles that their relationship began to fall apart during covid, which is when folklore and evermore were written and also when red tv vault lyrics were being polished. here’s where i’m gonna start my analysis.

“i’m getting tired even as a phoenix, always rising from the ashes”

she’s done this before, “died” a million times, which almost calls back to death by a thousand cuts. however, it reminds me more of illicit affairs. we all know taylor cheated with joe at the beginning of the relationship. she’s written about it in gorgeous and high infidelity, we know this. illicit affairs is a “fictional” song about someone cheating and finding out that the relationship isn’t all they thought it would be. specifically the line “it dies and it dies and it dies a million little times.” like a phoenix trapped in a death and rebirth cycle. idk.

“how can you say that you love someone you can’t tell is dying.” “my face was gray but you wouldn't admit that we were sick” “til we were too far gone to bring back to life.”

these three lines sound eerily similar to the part in atwtmv, “til we were dead and gone and buried, check the pulse and come back swearing it’s the same, after three months in the grave.” they also remind me of a lot of the lines in my tears ricochet about death and funerals and all that.

we also have the soldier references, “all i did was bleed as i tried to be the bravest soldier, fighting in only your army, frontlines, don’t you ignore me.” this combined with the imagery in the entirety of the great war kind of makes me feel like the “im a soldier who’s returning half her weight” from atw is connected somehow.

another point, she talks about how he didn’t notice her the whole time she was dying, and she says “i sent you signals.” which feels very exile. “you never gave a warning sign/i gave so many signs.” plus “now you’re running down the hallway” from you’re losing me and “holding all this love out here in the hall” from exile.

then we have the marriage thing which takes a little detour but does circle back around to evermore. the lover album is full of marriage references. she gives off the impression that she loves this man so much and wants to marry him and be with him for the rest of their lives. marriage is referenced in lover (the song) paper rings and inthaf (and others i can’t remember rn.) she’s fully on board with the idea of marriage. she even follows it up in peace where she literally says she wants to give him a child. then suddenly in lavender haze she talks about not having to be married to be in love, and how content she is with just dating. seems like a huge change. then you remember that she wrote champagne problems, (co-wrote WITH JOE according to her. which is insane to me.) a song about not being ready for marriage idk. also a song she cries at frequently on tour. then in youre losing me, she says “i wouldn’t marry me either,” implying that she wanted marriage and joe said no way, and convinced her she didn’t want it. a lot to think about here.

the last references i wanted to bring up were in the people pleaser line. “a pathological people pleaser, who only wanted you to see her.” shes a people pleaser, constantly needing people to like her (which she talks all about in mirrorball,) but she “only wanted [him] to SEE her.” implying she was so desperate for him to show some kind of emotion towards her that she didn’t care if it was like or dislike or anything, she just wanted him to acknowledge her. this calls back to the archer, (another favorite song of mine to analyze lol), where she talks about feeling like people see through her (which is a double meaning i’m well aware), and now even her own boyfriend sees through her. insane. joe alwyn when i catch you you’re done for. anyway, this majorly relates to the whole theme in tolerate it where he just sits there apathetic and uncaring. not “say[ing] something” or “do[ing] something.” (“say SOMETHING, babe, do SOMETHING.”)

lastly, “now i just sit in the dark and wonder if it’s time” is very similar to it’s time to go, the very last song on evermore.

anyway lmao its the middle of the night and i just spent forever writing this in a deranged state of mind, no way i’m proofreading anything so thanks for reading if you actually made it through the whole thing. sorry for clogging up my account i won’t do it again i promise. this song is just insanely fun to analyze for me and i have a million more thoughts but i’m not typing anymore rn oh my god. 💀

ik i don’t talk about songs here unless they’re unreleased but i have an insane mad scientist level delusional theory about you’re losing me if anyone wants to hear it 😭

a/n: as the usual: this is fictional and does not have any compromise with real life

also, this is inspired by the jonas brothers song, hope you enjoy

prompt: charles has met someone new and during the Hungarian GP she is there to watch the race and he is super nervous about it because he really likes her, and carlos came to talk to him

this is just fluff, seriously, no warnings at all, just charles and his girl being the most cute and adorable couple i have ever written, im so in love with the way this turned

Who's in my head | Charles Leclerc imagine

The Hungaroring was tumultuous, as normal for a race week, there was plenty of fans around and a lot of red jerseys spread through the place, including y/n, it was her first time watching a GP, she was nervous, obviously, but she was also excited, especially because Charles himself invented her to be there, and since she was during summer break in college, she went.

Charles, on the other hand, was freaking out before the race, he was more nervous than the usual, he really wanted to do well this race, he doesn't have to, but he wanted to impress the girl who was somewhere in the red crowd. He offered her a paddock pass, which she denied, it was her first time watching a race and she wanted the full experience off that, and also because they were not public yet, it only had been a couple of months and they were enjoying the little bubble of privacy the early stage of a relationship could offer.

"Mate, why are you freaking out?" Carlos noticed something was wrong with his teammates instantly, but just now he could talk to Charles

"Nothing, really, just nervous" Charles tried to let it go, but the look Carlos gave to him was saying he wasn't buying that

"C'mon, I know there's something, vamos, dime" c'mon tell me the spaniard locked his arms and waited

"There's a girl..." Charles started to say

"There's always a girl, mate, you gonna have to be more specific"

"We are seeing each other for a while now... we're dating, sort of, and she is here..." Carlos cut his teammate

"Here where? Who is she? Is the blond one?" Carlos was looking all around pointing at the first woman he saw, Charles rolled his eyes and pulled his friend by the shoulder, pointing him to the right direction

"She is not here here, she is there" and pointed to a young woman with braided blond and pink hair and a ferrari jersey

"Wait... why she is watching the race from there and not from here?" Carlos was genuinely surprised "You didn't offer her a pass? Cabrón, you need manners, your mom taught you better, wait, you did this with your mom in Monza too..."

"I did! I offered her the pass and she said no, to my face, she said she wasn't with me because of the pass and she wanted the full normal experience to watch the race with everyone" Charles explained, "And I really like her, she is incredible, she is sweet, and polite, and intelligent, she is in some smart course in Bologna, and she traveled all the way to watch the race..." he continued

"Cabrón, you are in love... why are you so nervous?"

"I want to impress her, I want her to be proud" Charles said in a lower voice

"She's here, isn't she? I think she's already impressed with the formula one driver thing"

"That's not the point, we meet in Italy and she nearly ran over me with her pink bike, do you know what she said? She said "Im sorry about the race, but you know what, a p6 is better than hitting the wall, so congrats" and I was so frustrated that day and she made me laugh after that shitty show, she doesn't care if I am a driver or not" Carlos was lost about what to say

"Ok... and what am I supposed to say? Im confused"

"I don't know, but it would be great if we win, she couldn't make to Silverstone or Austria, and she is in fact a Ferrari girl, she is Italian after all, so it would be nice a 1-2..."

"Then let's work on that" Carlos gave Charles a 'man hug' and they joined their respective cars.

The green flag was already passed, the lights went off and it was time. Charles was only thinking about the race, and the car, there was nothing else inside his mind, with the exception of the pink hair, but that was faded, yet he was smiling.

When Charles overtaked Russell he was feeling so good, and the car was feeling really nice, that moment he felt like he could win. After last week, he was feeling a good thing. But the results weren't what he or Carlos, the fans or the team expect. A p5 and p6 was not the worst thing in life, but it was a pretty shitty result.

Charles didn't put much of high expectations on that race, he felt like he could win but the defeat this time wasn't awful, he was in piece with himself knowing he was doing great and the car was doing great. He just wanted to finish he's duties and pick up his girl so they could enjoy the break.

He tried to found her in between the crowd but it was pretty difficult, the orange fog was making even harder, so he went to his media duties, Charles doesn't even tried to argue with the team about the tires choice, and he didn't have to. When he walked into the garage she was there, gesticulating and speaking a north italian so fast and with so much intensity that everyone was chocked, they were all looking at her and see, the scene was pretty comical, she was pointing to the tires and to the principal team and again to the tires and "come può una squadra essere così squilibrata?" how can a team be thins unbalanced? and after long minutes, Charles couldn't hold his laugh anymore.

"That's ok, ma belle, I think they all understand" he said and hugged her by her back, she looked at him and gave him the most beautiful smile in the world

"Oh, hello cuore mio, you did great, I'm proud of you" and turned back to the team, who was still speechless, "you didn't"

Charles asked her to wait for him while he changed and in the meantime, he went to Carlos to ask how she ended up there.

"I asked Isa to take her in, you thought we both were fire, but your girl is fire fire, Isa liked her, and me too, even though she didn't let me introduce myself, because she knew me" Charles laughed, after a awful race he was laughing

"Yeah, she knew me too and look where we are. Anyway, see you in three weeks, enjoy your summer" Charles went again to find y/n, she was sitting talking with a mechanic, her foot didn't reach the floor, but she was with pink cheeks and her braids were messy, but she was smiling, she was always smiling, she had that aura around her, people gravitate toward her, it was magnetic, if you asked Charles, it was the thing that make him fell in love with her, she was good with people, with everyone.

"Ma belle, can we go?" Charles asked, feeling sorry for taking her away from the conversation, but she found his gaze and nodded, she said goodbye to everyone in the garage, just as he did, and considering the paddock was pretty much empty, they locked hands.

"You did amazing today, that overtake was insane, bae, I was so proud, I even recorded to send to my parents, they didn't understand what was going on, but they love it" she started to say, y/n was a talking machine, she loved to talk, and Charles loved to listen to her, they spent the whole way until the airport talking about the race and what could go better in the next one, she was so supportive that at some point Charles joked about her mom and brothers being paying her to say nice things to him and about him

"No one needs to pay, I do it for free" she winked at him

"Why when you wink is this cute and sexy at the same time?" he pulled her closer

The flight to Monaco was pretty good, they landed 2 hours after and the nex day they would be in south Italy, enjoying the sun and the ocean and everything is was on the bargain.

Y/n started to talk about how south italian was different, and the food they could eat, and how they could stay in shape because Charles had a pretty strict diet, she was thinking about him even when she wasn't, she cared so much about him being happy that when they entered Charles apartment he held her by her cheeks and kissed her, he was deeply and madly in love with her.

"What was that for?"

"Because I can't take you out of my head, and because I love you" he was keeping the words, he wanted to wait, to do things in their time, but he loved her, and everything about her, her cranky mood during mornings, the way she was always with a fruit portion for him, how she remembered to reapply sunscreen, how she talk with her hands, her scent, her accent, her unknowing geography knowledge, her pink hair and matching bike and how she was the most terrible driver he ever met "You don't need to say back, but i wanted you to know"

On second day of summer break, they were in his yacht somewhere in the Sardinia sea, she was reading her favourite book, her sunglasses on and a cute smile on her face.

"Charles?" he looked at her, she raised her glasses and only a piece of the book, allowing him to see her eyes

"Yes, ma belle?"

"Anch'io ti amo, cuore mio" I love you too, my heart and she went back to her reading time, leaving Charles with the most stupid smile on his face

"Oh, do you?" he was teasing her, and this time she put the book down

"Yeah, I do, I love you, and your beautiful green eyes, the way you always reach me, and how you keep me steady, and how you hold me when I need and I don't even have to ask, I love how you treat my parents and how you treat your family, ti amo il mio campione, tutti voi" i love you my champ, all of you

They spent the rest of the day enjoying each others company, and the sun, and the ocean, Charles could say he's never been that happy, not even in Monza, not even when he drove the f-75 for the first time, in those past few weeks he was feeling like a constant raining cloud was above him, but when y/n was with him, she was his miss sunshine, she made him happy, and he didn't have to put effort to impress her, he just need to be him, because she loves all of him.

General and dating Paul tlb head cannons

Ok if I'm being honest Paul is one of my favorite boys. He's just such a baby girl and I love him so much holy shit. I'm probably gonna do this for David too. Also requests and match ups are back open and I'm writing for the candy man now.

Warnings: None I can think of

General head cannons

He was turned in the 60's at or shortly after woodstock. He was a total hippie. He was super high the entire time and got mad bitches. Probably met Marko and made out with him after like five minutes of knowing each other.

His hair was long at the time and he just kept growing it out. He obviously had it cut from time to time but he always kept it long.

Knows how to play the harmonica and can play a few songs on the guitar too.

He washes his hair once a week and keeps it down like that once a week too but for the rest of the week he teases it and sprays an ungodly amount of hairspray into his hair. If you squeezed it, it would sound like someone bit a pretzel.

Also a fan of girly music (Again women artists or artists popular with girls) and one time got into and intense fight with David about how the Beatles are a boy band. The fight go so bad the two went a month without talking to each other.

His little nest area has a ton of posters in it that he probably stole from someone or a booth at the boardwalk.

He annoys the other boys a lot. Like a lot. He makes really dumb jokes all the time and doesn't know when to shut up and doesn't know when he's actually annoying the other boys so he keep going (totally not a self insert. I totally don't do this all the time with family)

Second big brother to Laddie. If Dwayne is busy or Laddie's just mad at him he goes to Paul. Paul definetly calls Laddie "Little man". He also calls Marko "Little man" because he's short.

Is the biggest pussy when Marko brings around animals he's not used to. Birds, cats and 'reasonably sized' dogs are fine. But when Marko brought in a great dane one time and a raccoon the other time Paul refused to leave his nest until they left. I laugh about thinking about Marko bringing in a horse and Paul just groaning as he leaves. (But honestly I'm a little scared of being around horses too ngl)

Relationship head cannons

Main love language is gift giving so he'll be winning you a lot of prizes from games and stealing buying you a ton of stuff you want.

Sucks at flirting. Like he just sucks so bad at it. Like he'd mix up all his pick up lines together, "If I had a nickle for every time I saw someone as beautiful as you I'd give you a dollar. Wait shit no let me start over."

But this doesn't stop him from getting you interested. He acts like it was on purpose the entire time.

Loves listening to music with you. Like explaining music to you and telling you about how he saw this band live and how he met so and so once and stuff like that. If you have good music taste he's even more in love with you.

He will not admit it but he would love if you washed out his hair for him and brushed it out. He washes his hair seperately from himself because of all the hairspray. Like if you help him wash it out and brush it and take care of it, he's gonna be so down bad man. He would adore that.

Will try to impress you by showing off. He'll like do something really dumb then will beam when you compliment him on it.

Will also make you songs and sing to you. He'll deacate a song to you and buy it on cassette and vinyl. He'll listen to it every day and always think of you while he does.

Would also love cuddling with you while listening to music. Will mouth the words or straight up sing them while holding onto you.

Would love to go on a concert date if you could ever swing that for him.

luka couffaine woahh (season 4 spoilers) (based on the crocoduel episode) (srry if this is ooc i suck at writing)

You clapped and cheered as Kitty Section threw their masks up into the air. Alya and Zoe standing up, you following in suit.

You smile as Rose and Juleka hug, focusing on Luka as he looked around.

"Marinette hasn't around here for a while. Is she ok?" He asks making Alya panic.

You knew Marinette, she probably was hiding in her room convincing herself that Luka not seeing 'the girl that broke his heart' was better than seeing her.

"Oh yeah! Yeah! She's fine. It's just that she.. she... she's got a lot of stuff going on." Alya tried to make up a story for Marinette's absence, but Luka knew better than that.

"You can be honest with me, you know? She's stopped showing up because she knows I'm in love with her, right?" Luka spoke out leaving Alya speechless, luckily Rose interrupting.

You stared at Luka with a small frown on your face as Rose went on some rant about a 'Aqua Pony' class. You knew he felt like he was at fault for Marinette's absence.

You had liked Luka for a bit, knowing he was in love with Marinette hurt and hearing that they were dating hurt even more.

But the relationship didn't last long, Marinette always leaving for some reason. You knew Luka's heart broke every time and how it was broken in half when they broke up. But you were there for him! A shoulder to lean on, someone to talk too... As his best friend.

"I get it, Rose. Thanks." Luka pats her shoulder before walking away. You watching his retreating form before he disappears, leaving you to look out at the river.

"So, Y/n, when are you gonna tell Luka?" Alya focuses her attention on you after creating a plan to help Marinette tell Luka.

Everyone else looks at you too, making your cheeks heat up. "Tell him what?" You mumble out making Alya scoff.

"That you like him." She emphasizes on the 'like' part, also wiggling her eyebrows at you causing everyone to start talking about it.

"It could help him get out of his sad mood!" Alix defends making you shrink in further on yourself. That was the exact opposite of what you wanted.

You didn't want to be his rebound, or the person to pick it all up and then for him to leave you. You were too deep in love for that to happen.

"I think- I think I'm gonna go check up on Luka." You mumble out before quickly leaving to his room, wanting to leave the talk about your feelings.

"Hi" Luka smiles solemnly as you walk in. "Hi" You return his smile and sit next to him on the bed, gently moving his guitar out of the way.

Luka plays a slow sad jazz tune, leading you to sigh and lay on his bed as the song continued. He slowly came to a stop, putting his guitar down and looking at you.

"What's got you so down?" Luka asks and lays down on his back next to you. You turn on your side and stare into his baby blue eyes that sparkled in the light of the open window

"Someone." You speak lightly before continuing "A boy, actually." Luka looks surprised when you finish talking. He never knew you to have interests in anyone. You always seemed too 'by yourself' to know anyone other than him.

"Is he nice?" You smile at the boy infront of me "So nice.." You respond making him slowly nod. "That's good..." He mumbles while staring right back into your eyes, entranced by them.

You both slowly lean in closer, barely any space between you two. "Luka.. I-.." You mumble out before being cut off by the sound on footsteps coming down the stairs.

Luka sits back up before clearing his throat and grabbing his guitar. He starts playing the same slow sad jazz song as before.

You sit up and stare at the back of his head. You guys almost kissed. You just almost kissed your best friend who you've been in love with for months.

But you guys didn't. You guys didn't kiss because Luka would never love you. He'd always see you as his best friend and never as someone he would live. At least, not while he was still in love with Marinette.

You stood up, smiling at Luka before passing Juleka who walked into the room. You met Juleka's eyes for a split second, her eyes wide to the tears brimming yours.

You quickly run upstairs and off of the boat as Juleka understood what happened. You finally understood why her brother was never a good choice for you.

Because, he yearned for someone else.

Late Nights (The Outer Banks: Rafe Cameron)

This song just gives giant Rafe Cameron enemies to lovers vibes! Also, Holy shit, this is my longest work ever! I hope you guys enjoy reading it as much I enjoyed writing it!

This takes place season 1, before Rafe kills Peterkin. Let’s just pretend he’s not a psychopath. He’s still the resident bad boy of Figure 8, but not a killer…

summary: female reader (she/her) x Rafe Cameron When Y/N finds herself abandoned by her friends at a house party thrown by no other than Kook King, Topper Thornton, she finds odd company in the form of her classmates and neighbors that she has taken very little liking to. She is surprised to learn that her disinterest in all things “kook-related” has sparked the interest of a particular kook. tw: mention of alcohol/drug consumption, slight smut (18+) word count: 4.1k

Y/N might’ve been a kook, but if it wasn’t for her consistent attendance to Figure Eight events you wouldn’t have known. She hated all the superficial bullshit and quickly found herself befriending a certain group of pogues who she would often run into while working on the Cut. Everything in her life had been so easy for her, and although she was grateful, she couldn’t help but feel guilty about the privilege she received while her friends had spent their life fighting for a chance. Being able to find an ally in Kie was all that Y/N had to look forward to as she continued to find a place for herself among the fight between class divisions in her small hometown.

Summer was coming to an end, and with a few weeks left you couldn’t help but just enjoy the moments with your friends. Sitting on the small boat as the sun slowly set, passing the blunt around while you all tried to keep a serious conversation going before blurting out laughing at some stupid shit JJ had said. You had even found an unlikely friend in the form of kook princess, Sarah Cameron. You had known Sarah Cameron for as long as you could remember, always greeting each other’s families at events and having at least one class together every year. But this was different, you had known Sarah but never gave her a chance to hang out. When John B mentioned her a few weeks ago and started to bring her around you and the other pogues were stunned to say the least. You knew that she was dating Topper Thornton, I mean everyone knew that, but what she had with John B was different, at least from what you had seen. “This was great guys, but I promised Topper I would meet him at his party. Keep up appearances, you know?” Sarah said unsurely. Everyone looked around, nodding in understandment, except John B. “I don’t like him,” JJ spoke up, standing up for John B who continued sulking in silence. “Yeah, him and Rafe are always doing some shit,” Pope also spoke up. “You guys have no idea,” Kiara replied while rolling her eyes at the thought of the kook boys she had known so well. You also nodded in response. “Yeah, well I would invite you guys, but I can’t imagine that going over well.” Once again everyone nodded in agreement, except John B. “What if Y/N goes with you,” he suggested. “Thanks for throwing me under the bus!” you exclaimed back at him. Sarah turned to you with a shy smile, “It’s not such a bad idea. I mean you would know almost everyone.” “Yeah, so does Kie, you don’t see her being volunteered to go,” you exclaimed again. “That’s because they actually like you,” Kie replied, smirking when you rolled your eyes at her statement, she was right. “C’mon Y/N it’ll be fun. You’ll have me to hang out with and if you absolutely hate it, we’ll make up an excuse and leave. Besides, it’d be nice to have someone there that I don’t need to be fake with.” You thought for a moment before slowly nodding your head, cursing under your breath as your friends cheered around you. “There’s our little kookie,” JJ stated, jumping away in defense as you attempted to punch his arm.

The bass of the music pounded in your ears as you walked up the driveway. If even possible it got louder once you finally entered the front door, you swore your eardrums were about to rupture. Finding the kitchen, you reached out for two truly’s, your disappointment in the night continuing as feeling they were just room temperature. They weren’t your first choice of alcohol to get through a night like this and seeing as though they weren’t even cold made it worse. You instantly cracked it open, downing as much as you could on the first sip. You handed the other one to Sarah, bumping your open can to her’s in an attempt to say cheers. She laughed at you, “I’m gonna go find Topper. You’ll be okay if I leave you alone for a few minutes?” You took another sip before responding, “Figured this would happen at some point, yeah I’ll be good.” Watching her leave your eyes scanned the kitchen, deciding you needed to loosen up some more you pushed off the counter, “I need something stronger,” you whispered under your breath.

Making your way through the house you scanned the room for unattended bottles you could mooch off. To your surprise you were pulled by the arm, “Omg Y/N, what are you doing here?” a girly high-pitched voice screeched. You turned around, already ready to use your preppy voice, “Hey Claire,” you responded in a mock happy voice matching hers. Claire was sweet, n just not your cup of tea. The two of you had always been civil, sharing a few classes here and there. “Mind if I?” you asked, gesturing to the bottle of Tito’s vodka in her hand. “Oh sure, just be careful. I’ve gotten fucked up with this shit more times than I could remember,” she laughed while handing you the bottle. You lift the bottle up to your lips, the taste on the rim barely making an impact on your tastebuds. But as you thew your head back and lifted the bottle you took one big swig. The alcohol ran down your throat, a warmth following the path it took as it settled in your stomach. “Ugh, Claire, that shit is just straight rubbing alcohol. How the fuck do you drink that?” you exclaimed, handing her the bottle as you wiped the back of your mouth with your hand. She laughed at your reaction, “Believe me, in a little while you won’t even care how it tastes. Just know that you’ll feel it.” You nodded your head while once again scanning your eyes across the room. A few feet away was a coffee table surrounded by teens. Claire noticed your interest and dragged you over. Looking up from the table was Rafe Cameron, Sarah’s brother, who on more than one account you had gotten into a heated argument about your choice of friends. The two of you made eye contact as he wiped the leftover residue from the line of cocaine he had just done. Classy as ever Cameron, you thought as you broke eye contact and examined all the other teens waiting their turn. Rafe greeted Claire with a smirk and half-nod before returning his attention to you. “Awww Y/L/N, get tired of hanging around those boring old pogues, and decided to have some real fun?” he mocked while gesturing to the lines set up in front of him. You scoffed at his suggestion, “Keep dreaming,” you responded. Living in your teenage years and drinking was one thing, but if your parents caught you doing drugs there was a good chance you wouldn’t have much of a life to live. Making eye contact with you he slowly lowered himself closer to the table, quickly doing another line before looking up at you again. Is this kid trying to kill himself? you thought to yourself. You reached out for Claire’s bottle, taking another swig before motioning it up to Rafe. “Always a pleasure Cameron,” you stated before handing Claire her bottle.

Leaving the room, you realized that you hadn’t seen Sarah for a while. Wandering around the house in attempt to find her you bumped into Topper. “Hey Top, seen Sarah anywhere?” you asked. “Uhm a little while ago, she said she went to go find you,” he said quizzingly. “Yeah, right. Just kidding, she went to the bathroom. I’ll go find her,” you quickly spitted out. Nearly running you got away from Topper as fast as you could before finding an empty spot on the wall. Leaning back against the wall, you pulled your phone from your pocket and found a few texts from Sarah and one from John B. “Hey Y/N, John B showed up.” “We just left, please distract Topper.” “I owe you one.” You responded back, “ughh ok, I’m on it.” Clicking on John B’s name you read his message, “sorry kookie, had to steal her. thanks!” You rolled your eyes at the dumb nickname him and the others decided for you, their attempt to always tease you about your kook lifestyle. You sent him the middle finger emoji and a yellow heart before turning your phone off and looking around for Topper. Spotting him talking to Kelce you kept your place on the wall. As long as you could see him and he couldn’t see you, there was no reason to suspect anything about Sarah. Besides, after about half an hour you could probably make a break for the exit, and no one would notice.

As you continued to scroll on your phone you were slightly startled by the presence of another human standing near you. Your eyes looked up to a boy standing in front of you. He was tall, but you couldn’t ignore how young and immature he looked. “Don’t even think about it freshman,” you said before he had the chance. He laughed while nodding his head. “Hey, I had to try. Should’ve known a girl as smart as you wouldn’t give me a chance,” he responded. You gave him a quizzical look as you quickly glanced him up and down. He wasn’t too dumb if he knew to compliment your intelligence over any physical feature. He reached his hand out to shake yours, “I’m Nathan.” You glanced at his hand for a second before reluctantly shaking it “I’m Y/N,” you replied. “I know,” he said a little too quickly making the both of you chuckle. “Mrs. Nichol said you were the captain of the mock trial team. She talked to you the other day about me joining,” he rambled on. You laughed at his apparent nervousness. “Oh yeah, well I guess it’s nice to meet you, Nathan. Not exactly the type of place to bring up extracurriculars,” you laughed while motioning to the number of teens, drugs, and alcohol around you. As you did you could feel the stare from a certain kook, no doubt watching your exchange with the boy in front of you. “Probably not, but it did get you talking to me,” he quirked back. Nodding your head in amusement at his reply you responded, “Touché.” As the volume of the music had apparently increased within the last few seconds of your exchange, Nathan leaned forward slightly so he could hear you better. “Can I get you something to drink?” He asked while leaning down. “I can take it from here,” you heard Rafe speak from behind you as he slid his hand around to the small of your back. Confused by the situation unraveling in front of you, you were quick to speak. “Uhm, actually Cameron, Nathan and I were having a lovely conversation about something you couldn’t possibly be interested in,” you stated attempting to distance yourself away from Rafe and closer to Nathan. “Yeah, I—” Nathan attempted to speak before being interrupted, “Seriously, Miller, beat it or practice on Monday will be hell.” You confusingly looked at Nathan and Rafe before finally understanding. Just like you would be Nathan’s captain, so was Rafe. “Water polo?” you questioned. “Yeah, you’ll catch a game?” he asked in return. “Yeah!” you said sweetly before a mocking scoff turned your attention to Rafe, to which your surprise still had his hand on the small of your back, it almost felt natural that you hadn’t noticed it was still there. Looking at him expectantly he pulled his hands away holding them up in an ‘ok I get it’ way. “Can I help you?” you asked expectantly. “Care to go for a swim?” he asked. You looked at him confused, you weren’t sure if it was your light buzz from your shots of vodka talking but he seemed just as surprised as you were as you answered, “yes!”

As he grabbed your hand, you quietly followed as he led you through the house. “I’m gonna need more alcohol before we do this,” you exclaimed as loud as you could, hoping he would hear you over the volume of the music. He turned to look at you for a moment before turning back and nodding, showing that he had in fact heard your request. Walking through the kitchen he left you at the counter while reaching into one of the cabinets, pulling down a full bottle of Tito’s. He motioned you from your spot and you continued to follow. “My parents got this as a gift for the Thornton’s but it’s not really their style.” You nodded understandingly, Topper’s parents didn’t really seem like the type to be chugging back vodka shots, they were more sophisticated. Following him through the house you were confused as you walked past the sliding glass door that led to the pool and the dozens of other teens who had the same idea you two had, or so you thought. “Where are we going?” you asked. Rafe stayed silent as you continued following him. Opening another set of glass doors, he let you exit first before quickly following. On the side of the house was a hot tub that apparently no one knew about, seeing as though you and Rafe were the only ones out here. “What the hell is this, Cameron?” you asked. He looked at you, confusion evident on his face. “You said we were going swimming. We can’t do that in a hot tub.” He laughed before handing you the now open bottle of Tito’s, watching you take a sip he replied, “What, did you plan on working on your breaststroke or something?” He said jokingly. “No, I actually planned on playing mermaids. Maybe it’s you who needs to work on breaststroke,” you responded wittily. He feigned shock and hurt, taking the bottle from your hand. “My breaststroke is amazing, just ask your friend Claire,” he winked as you scoffed in amusement and disgust. After taking another sip he handed the bottle back to you, removing his clothes he stripped down until he was in his boxers. That left little to the imagination as you could see the outline of his dick printed. Feeling your eyes, he gave you a smirk to which you sheepishly took another sip of vodka, shaking as you felt the liquid burn down your throat. Entering the hot tub, he sat with arms spread out to both his sides, resting on the edge. “Aren’t you going to join me?” he asked. You nodded, feeling your breath catch in your throat. You handed him the bottle, starting to undress as you felt his eyes drawn to your exposed skin where you had begun to lift your shirt. “Hey! Turn around Cameron,” you exclaimed. He put his hands up in defense, turning his head so his attention was drawn to the bubbles and pressure coming from the jets. Folding your shirt and jeans on to the table nearby you turned back around to Rafe examining your exposed body adorning a basic black sports bra and lace thong. You immediately turned red, not knowing how to react under his intense stare. As you entered the hot tub you slipped when placing your foot on the bench to step in, landing you a little closer to Rafe then you planned. He held your arm as you attempted to steady yourself. “You alright?” he asked. You were able to manage out a “mhmm” as you reached for another sip from the bottle. He gladly handed you the bottle, a lazy smile on his face.

You weren’t sure how you always ended up like this but something about being drunk and outside led to you staring at the moon and stars. “What’s going on in that pretty little head of yours?” Rafe asked, breaking the silence. You tried to remain calm with his choice of words, not wanting him to know the effect he was having on you. “Just thinking,” you responded quietly. “About what,” you scanned his face for a second, genuine interest radiating off him. “As niche as it sounds, life…I mean doesn’t this all seem so pathetic,” you stated as you continued to stare off into the sky. “Life?” he asked, laughing to mask his confusion. You chuckled along with him, “No, this…pogues vs. kooks. It’s all so fucking dumb. There are so many more problems out there, so many people who need help and we can’t even come together to help people in our own community.” He just hummed as you continued to ramble on, listening to what you had to say. “I can’t help but just feel guilty. I mean what did I do to deserve this type of life. I mean my parents work hard but they’ve had so many opportunities because of their parents and their parents, and it just keeps going. This sort of generational wealth and success…” you quietly trailed off as you realized who you were talking to. “But I mean you probably don’t care,” you said while looking at him. He shook his head with a smirk. “Now I know why Sarah never shuts up about how smart you are.” You looked at him more intently, “what?” you exclaimed. He nodded his head, before turning his attention to the sky like you had before. “I mean, I guess I just never thought of it that way. Kind of blind to the privilege that I have.” “Must be all the coke,” you mumbled to yourself under your breath. He shot you a warning look before chuckling, “might be the coke,” he responded. You laughed along with him before a serious tone washed over him. “I mean it Y/N, you’re just so attuned to the needs of others,” He exclaimed. “Well, you can be like that too,” you reassured him. “Yeah right, there’s not a lot of hope left for me,” he replied sarcastically. “That’s not true. I mean sure you have your flaws, but from what I’ve seen you’re a good friend, loyal and family is important to you. Those are good qualities, and I mean of course you’re not half bad looking.” He laughed at the last part. “Well, Y/L/N, you’re extremely caring, intelligent, and hot as fuck! So, you have that going for you.” It was your turn to laugh and turn red at his comment.  You weren’t sure if it was the alcohol dulling your senses, but as you looked into Rafe’s eyes you felt yourself being drawn closer. You both leaned in, lips barely brushing each other as your breaths slowed. “Can I kiss you,” he asked. You could barely hear him over the sound of your own heart beating in your chest. “Please,” you nearly whined. Your tone making Rafe swoon as he gently pushed his lips onto yours.

As happy as you were with his gentleness, the alcohol you had consumed throughout the night had made you far hornier than you liked to admit. Leaning deeper into the kiss you gently placed your hands onto his chest before lightly pushing him back to so you could straddle his lap. As you did so, Rafe took a large sip from the bottle, as you looked at him expectantly. He gave you a smirk before bringing the bottle close to your lips, tilting your head back, you let him pour some of the alcohol down your throat. Before you could process the liquid once again burning the back your throat you pressed a heated kiss on to his lips. As your hands moved up from their place on his chest to the back of his neck, playing with the ends of his hair, his hands move from where he was setting the bottle down to trailing around your waist and landing on your ass, holding you in place. As your tongues continued to fight for dominance, he pulled away slightly. Kissing down your jaw and starting to suck on your neck you slightly grinded down on to him while continuing to play with the hairs at the nape of his neck. His hands left your waist, guiding your hips back and forth as you continued to grind on him. As he continued to work on your neck you moaned as he found your sweet spot, “Fuck Rafe,” you exclaimed. You could feel him smirk as he continued. Giving him a break, you leaned forward slightly, changing the angle to which you were grinding down on him and leaving marks over his neck and chest. “Fuck babe,” he stated. “Being so good to me,” he continued as he leaned in for another kiss. “Yes, sir,” you said, testing the waters. You could clearly tell that you were starting to drive Rafe crazy as he moaned into your mouth at your response. Roughly grabbing your hip, he speeded the pace of your grinding. As you continued to litter marks along his chest, he reached a hand up to pull your sports bra down far enough so that your boobs were spilling over the top. The pressure of the band along with the added sensation of Rafe’s mouth on your nipple was almost too much. Along with this you could feel how hard he had gotten under you. I mean, you knew he was big, but this was godly. Your makeout session was quickly abrupted as you both snapped your heads to the sound of the glass doors sliding open. Quickly removing yourself from Rafe’s lap and adjusting your bra, you sat silently, reaching for the bottle again. “What’s up Top?” Rafe asked nonchalantly. Topper looked at you both slyly, clearly knowing what he half-witnessed between the two of you. “Not much, I can’t find Sarah anywhere Y/N. And she’s not answering her fucking calls.” “Yeah, she wasn’t feeling well. Said she headed home; her phone probably died. Don’t worry Top,” you said as convincingly as the alcohol would let you. Topper seemed to accept your answer and reentered the house. Rafe looked at you unconvincingly. “She just left you?” he asks. Avoiding his gaze, you let your hands play with the water. Slowly nodding your head, you responded, “guess so…” “That doesn’t sound like Sarah,” he continued. “Well that’s what happened,” you snapped. Thinking about the conversation you would have to have with Sarah about how you failed to keep Topper distracted and the alcohol finally making its presence in your system known was too much to handle. “Ughh back to reality, I guess,” you groaned out. Rafe pulled you into his side so that his arm was around your shoulder and your head resting on his. “What are you up to now?” he asked. “Figuring how to make it home alive,” you chuckled dryly. He hummed in thought next to you. After a second, he spoke, surprising you in the process, “Stay with me.” “Rafe…” you dragged out unsurely. “Seriously Y/N, that way you don’t have to worry about going home right now.” You looked at him for a second before slowly nodding. Getting out of the hot tub he disappeared for a second before returning with a set of towels. As you both dried yourselves off and gathered your clothes you headed to Topper’s guestroom.

Stumbling around in your drunken state, Rafe grabbed the clothes from your hand. Setting them on a nearby table he turned so that you were facing each other. Reaching down slightly he grabbed your legs from under your thighs so that he was now carrying you. Feeling the warmth of his chest you pressed closer, wrapping your legs around his hips in the process. With each step you slightly bounced against him. The sexual tension from earlier quickly returning. Finally reaching the room Rafe laid down so that you were now on your back while he hovered over you. With your legs around his waist and arms around his neck you gently pulled him in, pecking a sweet kiss on your lips. “I need to shower,” you said shyly. He nodded his head, pulling away slightly so he was standing, and you stayed sprawled out on the bed. “I’ll go get us some water,” he stated as he slowly walked out the room. Leaving the door cracked enough so he wouldn’t bother anyone with the sound of it opening and closing you sat up, finally taking in your surroundings. Getting up and heading to the bathroom you folded your towel, pulling off your bra and underwear as you let the water run until it was hot enough. As you let the water run over your body you stood for a minute, just thinking about everything that had happened that night, you rub your hands down your face, muttering “fuck.” You weren’t sure what was happening, but it was a problem future you would just have to deal with later.

OK I hope this ramble makes sense. If it doesn't just delete it lol. But do you think there is any deeper meaning into the fact we haven't seen Buck shirtless since S2 but we have seen Eddie multiple times. But the reason I noticed more is because to me it seemed like Eddie and Ana and Buck and Taylor were portrayed in 2 different lights.

Like Eddie and Anna were very chaste and boring. Every time we recently saw Eddie shirtless it was never even around Ana. Definitely no getting caught like Shannon and he did. Even though there was dysfunction there you could tell he was sexually attracted to her.

But Buck and Taylor were very sexy. The way they had him pick her up in the bathroom. We even saw them in bed but he was dressed the whole time. And Oliver loves him a thirst trap so we know he's not against it.

Maybe I just want to see Buck shirtless again and I am pouting. But I also feel like yes the writers and producers always knew these relationships had an expiration date and choose to portray them a certain way and are they waiting to give me a Buck shirtless shot to make it a moment.

I'm like you I don't dabble in reaching far because it's disappointing. But I would send cookies to the writers if they made it Eddie having his oohh moment because he looks over and sees Buck pulling his shirt off and we all get to experience it together. Bring shirtless Buck back for science!

Hi Nonnie! Rest assured, I never delete anything. I may not get a certain ask, or it might take me a moment to reply to it, but if I got an ask, I will respond! *hugs*

Hmmm. I might be wrong, but I think the show tried to imply both couples had (at least on the surface) good sex. The flirty moments Ana and Eddie had in both 408 and 501 implies that to me. Mind you, just because that's what's implied, doesn't mean it was so. I feel like it's been implied that both men just went through the motions in order to maintain their r/s, and for both it seemingly was a good sex life (the women didn't appear to have any complaints), though really, they were both miserable with their partners. But they think they need to deliver to keep the r/s going.

Regarding shirtless!Buck, I think we mostly saw him in s1 in relation to his initial promiscuous ways. Then, we also had one scene which required it, because Buck and Abby were about to have phone sex, and since they were regularly speaking on the phone in any case, the shirtlessness was necessary to establish that this was gonna be some sexy times talk. The last scene where we saw Buck shirtless (correct me if I'm forgetting something) was to imply he thought Abby was back in 201, but she wasn't. I do think since then, there was a need to differentiate him from promiscuous!Buck, as well as the fact that the only r/s he's been in since was the one with Taylor. Which yeah, they chose to show us from the get go, in 501, that it wasn't working quite how it should have. It is similar to Eddie, we've seen him shirtless more than once in s5, but never in a sexy context.

Another thing to consider is that while Oliver isn't shy about posting a thirst trap on social media, he might have become nervous over time about being filmed shirtless. It's much easier to take one pic, make sure you like how you look in it, post it, and know you can also delete it immediately, it's a different thing to be walking around for a while scene, and if Ryan is around and isn't shy, it might also be that they're cutting Oliver some slack.

No lie, I would sell a kidney not just to get shirtless Oliver back, but to specifically have a mirror scene for the intro one in 201, where Eddie was stripping down to the soundtrack of "Whatta Man". Can you imagine if that scene were reversed and Eddie would be the one visibly thirsting on screen while the background song spelled it out in no uncertain terms? I WOULD SELL MY KIDNEY I TELL YOU.

Thank you for this ask, and I hope you're having a fantastic day! And yes, that we somehow get shirtless Buck soon... ;) xoxox
