Victors past (part 2 finally)

By the time he had returned home it was the thick of night. No people were bustling in the streets and every shop was closed. All that remained were a few oil lamps outside houses and some police men on guard duty. Victor made his way back towards his house, this time careful not to make a sound as he entered, despite his excitement ready to explode out of his chest.

His father was waiting for him, back to the front door and reading a news paper. "You're back already?" He asked in a condescending tone. Victor came up to him without a word, and dropped the 10 pound sack of coins in his lap, causing his father to jolt. He was about to scold him until he realized what exactly was just thrown on him. He opened it up in a hurry and saw it was filled with gold coins. He looked to Victor with what seemed like fear in his eyes, "Where did you get this? How did you get this?"

"I got a job, they paid me in advance. The only catch is that I have to travel rather far, that's why they gave me so much so early." He lied.

His father put the sack down gently on the floor and then stood up and hugged his son, "I'm proud of you, you did good."

Victor was a bit happy to get some validation from his father, "See what happens when you have faith in me?"

His father laughed, "Don't push this now you got lucky. But... most people do so, just don't take advantage of it"

Victor nodded, "Advice taken sir."

He went upstairs and kissed his mother on the forehead, then gathered up a few things from his room for the trip. His father gave him some food, and canteens of water. Before he left his father stopped him once more.

“If at any point you get into trouble you turn back around. You’re more important than whatever the job pays. And there’s still a chance of work with me in case. Got it?” It was the first time in a while his father sounded sincere, or worried for that matter.

Victor nodded, “Will do dad.” They shared a smile, then Victor left.

He went around back and grabbed his horse, named Pearl, the name fitting with her white and ashy coat. He petted her softly to sooth her, then leapt on her back and headed into the woods. If he had any chance of completing the list he needed to be fast and not waist any time. Even if the time given was marked by some candle, and who knows how long that will stay burning. Best not to think about it, he thought.

He looked over the list quickly, first up was a water lily. The closest pond was on the outskirts of the woods where a river pools lazily into swallow ground. With Pearl’s help he made it there before the moon was at midnight. The moonlight reflected like silver over the black pond water, and made the few stray lilies glow brightly with white light. Using a long branch he was able to guide a lily pad over towards the shore.

He smiled at the frail flower, the last time he’d been here was when he was much younger, with an old lady friend whom many wished for him to marry. They would spend hours getting away from the town and just be kids. Once they grew up the town snatched them back, and he’s rarely seen her since. But the memories still held sweetness. He pocketed the flower into the saddle bag and hopped back on his horse.

Next was to get cedar wood, to which he’d need to travel far out to a local town where they did traded. The wood was commonly used to make coffins, beautiful to say the least when finely crafted. This town offered the best supply of it. But that doesn’t excuse the fact that it took the rest of the night just to get there. He made the trade and pocketed the small samples of wood before looking over the list again.

There were still about four other things he needed, although he wasn’t sure how. Sticky burning ambers, a piece of love, cold, and a lost mind. Half of these were concepts let along an object. He looked to see the sun rising, thinking to himself to at least try to get these before sunset. He fed Pearl and then headed back towards the woods, making it back by noon.

Once there he stopped to let her rest, leaning against an old tree. He laughed breathlessly, “This lady’s got me doing her shopping doesn’t she?”

Pearl huffed in response as if understanding fully.

He turned to her, “Where do I even find these things?” He scoffed, “I’ll tell you what by the time I’ve figured it out I’ll have the lost mind.”

Pearl nudged him, forcing Victor to stumble.

He readjusted his hat, “What you think that’s what she means? I have to find loopholes is that it?” He looks over the list again, “You know that’s not that bad of an idea.”

He pulled away from the tree and noticed some sap getting stuck on his hand, he tried wiping it off at first then stopped. He smiled, “Sticky burning ambers... son of a gun.” He grabbed a scrap piece of paper from the saddle bag and collected a bit of sap.

He turned to pearl as he pocketed it, “That counts right?”

He sat down in the grass, and soon Pearl laid down next to him like a dog. He looked up and watched the clouds through the tree leaves.

“I wonder why so many people fear her, she seems nice. Aside from possibly wanting to, kill me.”

Pearl gave him a side glance.

“I said possibly!” Victor defended. He relaxed again, “Think about it though. She’s alone in the woods. Seems to me she has her life figured out, has a house and no one is barking orders at her.”

He petted Pearl softly, “Then again, she’s not making deals with a suspicious hermit in the woods in order to gain a father’s approval.”

He sighed, “Wish he would trust me. What’s so bad about trying to do my own business anyways!”

Pearl pushed into him, and he smiled, “Sorry girl. I know I’m getting distracted.” He watched a few leaves fall around him from the trees above. He picked up a large red maple leaf, “Cold.” He said softly before pocketing it.

He felt himself doze off beneath the warmth of his friend, and the cool breeze weaving between the fall colored trees. Realizing for the first time since he left, just how tired he was. He woke up to Pearl nudging him relentlessly till he acknowledged her.

He gave her a carrot and she calmed down while he got up and brushed himself off. It was nightfall, and growing deeper into it.

He held Pearl by the reigns and guided her towards the Mistress’s Home. He figured in the least he can give her these things, and see how far the candle had burned. He tied Pearl to a branch at the bottom of the tree, pet her softly, and made his way up into the tree house.

The lights within were still a glowing dim orange light. He made his way to his feet, and noticed the candle close to its end. Overcome with a sense of dread, and looked around for her, “Mistress Fortune?” He said as if scared to speak.

She appeared from behind the flame, “What do you want.”

Victor jumped and clutched the saddle bag tighter, “I came to give you some of the things from the list.”

“Some?” She pointed out.

“Yes, my apologies, I still haven’t found a piece of heart and a lost mind.” He said.

She took the saddle bag and laid out what items he brought, “These are clever.” She says smiling, “I’m impressed.”

“Thank you miss.” He said returning the smile.

She crossed her arms, “You know Victor, I’m feeling generous. So I’m willing to help with those last two items.”

“Really?” He said surprised.

She nodded, “Your own head will do for the lost mind. I mean that as a compliment by the way.”

He laughed, “Funny I didn’t think it would count.”

She smiled, then wet her fingers and extinguished the flame before moving over towards him. He took a step back, “What are you doing?”

She came up inches to him, “Retrieving the last item on the list.” She held up her hand between them, revealing a red dust which she blew in his face.

He flinched, coughing as it entered his system. “The hell is that bloody stuff?” He said doubling over.

Soon he couldn’t think beyond a wave of emotions. Every doubt or bit of sadness, even love, was suddenly amplified. He felt caught in a swirl of it all, so much that he nearly forgot where he was. Until he felt the mistress touch either side of his face.

“Breath Victor. Look at me.” She said in a sing song tone.

He rubbed his eyes, realizing he was crying, “What... did you do?”

She walked away with a vile which she used to collect some tears, “I collected the last item, I piece of the heart. You’re welcome.” She said placing it beside the other items.

He coughed once more and stood up, “Thanks... I think.”

“It’ll wear off shortly.” She said plainly.

He walked over to the table, “So, what now?”

“Now we fulfill your wish.” She turned to him, “For your family to be wealthy throughout all generations to come, yes?”

He nodded without hesitation.

She smiled, “Good!”

She sat him down at the table and began to get to work. She used the wood as kindling for a fire beneath a small cauldron. She placed the tears and sap in first, stirring thoroughly. And finally the lily, crushing it in her hands and letting it fall into the mixture. As it cooked she fingered through some labeled bottles on a shelf, until finding the one she was looking for and poured in a drop or two. A puff of green smoke billowed out once she did, and she extinguished the fire beneath.

“Alright, just one thing left.” She said.

“And that would be?” Victor asked.

The Mistress dipped her fingers into the mixture, and flicked it onto the candle, causing it to reignite with a green flame. Victor stared in awe a moment before looking back at her. She beckoned him to stand beside her, and he did. She dipped her hands into the pot, the liquid seeming to coat her skin like a glove, and travel down her arms like veins. She pushed some of the liquid onto her lips as if it were lipgloss. It all changed the room’s lighting into a bright and brilliant green as she smiled.

Victor couldn’t seem to speak, just stare in awe. She held his hands, the liquid seeming to move into him ever so slightly as she moved closer.

“Wait.” He said flinching away.

She moved back a bit, “What’s wrong?”

“Are you ok with this?” He asked.

She seemed confused, “I have to kiss you for this to work Victor.”

“Yeah but are you ok with it?” He asked again.

She sighed, “You’re ruining it Victor. I’m ok with it. Just let me grant your desires.” She said moving in again.

This time he didn’t stop her. He felt her lips press against his softly. Feeling like fire yet cold as ice. As she held him in the kiss, the potion crept from her body onto his, seeping into his arms and body. From her lips to his like a deadly poison. Into his mind and heart.

Once it was done she backed away, as if it were nothing.

“There.” She said as the light returned to a dim orange glow, “Your wish is granted.”

He rubbed his head, then looked at his hands a moment, noticing that he could see his bones through his skin for but a brief moment, then he was back to normal.

He turned to her, “So my family is wealthy now?”

“Yes.” She said starting to clean up.

“And future generations too?” He asked.

“Them too.” She said blowing out the candle.

He smiled, then bowed, “Thank you so much Mistress Fortune. I am forever grateful.”

Masterlist

Part 2  Part 3  Part 4

=====

The sound of your heels echoed throughout the dimly lit room as you make your way through the exhibit. The walls take you back in time, reading how Captain America came to be and all his past accomplishments. They even updated from the last time you were here, documenting the events on the Blip.

You didn’t even know where you were going, absently letting your emotions and feet lead to where it felt you needed to be.

“For a former spy, you’re not really good at sneaking up on someone.” Rhodes’ voice greets you once you open up the curtain to a different area. A small smile sneaks its way across your face seeing the two men in front of you.

“Bit out of practice.” You spit back, walking towards them. “It’s nice to see you again, Rhodie.” You open your arms out to him and he gladly takes the hug. “Hopefully life’s been treatin’ you well.”

“For the most part,” He chuckles out while pulling away from the embrace. You move on to the other man, him happily wrapping his arms around your waist as you wrap yours around his shoulders.

Sam lets out a breath into the crook of your neck before pulling back. “You doing okay?” You ask, looking at his face for any sign of emotion. He nods but there was something in his eye that told otherwise.

You open your mouth to push him for the real answer but Rhodes cuts you off, “Well, I have to get going. It was good seeing you, (Y/L/N), hopefully, we work together soon. Remember what I said, Sam.” With that, he leaves the room to leave you and Sam alone.

The room fills with silence as the two of you turn to the iconic suit and shield in front of you. You try to watch Sam from the corner of your eye but he just stands with his back straight and his eyes forward.

“You know, I’m sure Steve would understand.” You decide to say, clasping your hands in front of you. “I didn’t become as close as you did, but from my time with him during the Blip, he tried his best to help everyone. He had a lot of responsibilities and issues of his own along with having a whole country looking up to him... 

“It was a lot… he opened to me about it one night before… you know.” You admit which makes him finally look at you. “He told me what he was going to do and all I could do is support him… I asked him what he was going to do with the mantle and he said give it to you.” Turning your head, you make eye contact with him. “I asked him if he was sure.”

He lets out a snort at that, shaking his head at you. “Really gotta do me like that?” He wipes his hand across his face then stuffs his hand in his pockets as he turns to face you. “I thought we were having a nice bonding moment and then you had to drop me like that?”

You can’t help the giggle that escapes your lips at his whining. “I’m being serious, Sam, stop.” You hit him on the shoulder. “He said there was no doubt in his mind that you do what needed to be done with the shield. He trusted you and your judgment, Falcon.” You emphasize his hero name which he just rolls his eyes at you.

“Yea, I’m sure he did.” He smiles and then changes the subject, “How’s parole treatin’ ya, still got the collar on?” He gestures to your ankle causing you to lift your dress pant leg, flashing the electric bracelet around your ankle. He lets out a hearty chuckle at it. “Still can’t believe that they have you on a leash.”

“Price you gotta pay for freedom.” You shrug and drop the cloth. There’s a beat of silence between the two of you, both of you taking a glance back at the exhibit and the shield.

“Have you talked with Bucky recently?”

“No, I was going to ask you.” Your heart sinks at the realization. “We’ve been texting a bit but I haven’t seen him since I spent the weekend with him a couple of weeks ago.” You shyly admit and look down at your feet.

“Weekend, huh?”

“Shut it, Sam.” You knock your foot against his. “We didn’t do anything, he doesn’t like me like that. Plus, he wouldn’t even let me spend the night. I had to go to a hotel, he sleeps on the floor, Sam! I’m worried about him.” It took weeks for you to convince him to let you come over and you finally knew why when you step into his apartment. It made your heart sink, it looked like if a Hydra cell got a remodel. “He has two chairs and a tv.”

“Living modestly I see.” He snorts out, covering up whatever he was actually thinking. It’s now your turn to roll your eyes at him, frustrated that he isn’t willing to talk about this. “Hey, he’s still figuring stuff out, okay? He just got all his memories back and he’s still working on living with his past. You should know better than I do to give him time.” His tone is soft as he lightly scolds you. You hang your head at his words, knowing he’s right.

It took some time for you to come to terms with your past when you turned yourself in after Hydra and SHIELD fell. You took accountability for your actions during your years at Hydra and spent a few years in jail before Steve took action to help you get on parole. That didn’t mean you weren’t fully recovered.

“When are you joining me on the field, anyway?” Sam changes the topic noticing how you went silent and your eyes looked past him. “I could use you on some of my recon missions.” 

A large smile forms on your face at the mention of your parole. “A couple more check-ins and I’m good, I think.” You excitedly inform, “They actually want to talk to me about something, and then it’s the last three months. Saving the world made my good behavior skyrocket.”

“I’m sure it did.” He smiles, “Well, let me know what happens. I’m heading down to Louisiana soon and my sisters want to meet you. She heard about your work with the soup kitchens in New York and she wanted some insight.”

“Really? Give her my number, you know I’d be happy to talk with her. I’ve been thinking about trying to get my officer to convince the big guys to expand my tracking radar so I reach out more.” You start to ramble about the ideas you’ve been having for more community service actions. During the blip, Steve got you into volunteer work and it sparked something inside of you. He said it might give you a new purpose and he couldn’t have been more right.

The two of you spend the rest of the day together, catching up on everything that’s been going on. You didn’t realize how much you missed his snarky comments and banter until he smothered you in it, “making up for lost time”, he said. He continues the bullying by texting back and forth for the next few days.

It was nice to have a friend after everything that happened over the last few years. Steve and Nat were gone so the friendships you built up during the blip were just a memory now. Yea, Bucky and you were friends but it was a bit more complicated than that.

It’s a few weeks after that and they’ve already named some prick the new Captain America. You were frustrated at Sam but you realized that he couldn’t have known that this was going to happen. Especially since when you reached out to him and he was more furious than you were. Bucky was a whole other story. When the press conference aired, he immediately called you and went off about Sam. You couldn’t offer answers so you just told him to talk to him about it. This didn’t involve you.

Now, you were sat at some random government office in DC. You were beyond nervous, leg bouncing and fingers tapping. Kevin, your sweet parole officer, had called you in for an emergency meeting. He didn’t mention anything about the content of it but he assured you not to worry. It didn’t help, though, your mind was scrambling trying to think of anything you could’ve done to break your parole or anywhere you could’ve gone that went outside your tracking radar.

“(Y/L/N)?” The familiar voice echoes through the lobby makes your head snap up. Kevin, your knight in a cashmere sweater, stands there with his hands in his pants pockets. He nods his head, gesturing for you to follow him.

He leads you down a long hallway, stopping at the end of it and holding the door open for you. You send him a grateful smile before entering the office. It was very different from his usual office. The tall windows lined the wall from floor to ceiling, making the already large room feel even more spacious. It was a bit unsettling compared to his close-knit office space located in an old house on the outskirts of DC.

Kevin moves you two to the large conference table on the other side of the room, having you sit before he does. He takes the chair at the head of the table, sighing as he opens the folder and takes a few papers out.

“Sign these.” He slides them over to you but you furrow your eyebrows in response.

“What’s going on?”

“You’re being released.” He announces, leaning back in his chair with a tight-lipped smile on his face. Your jaw drops and your heart picks up but you can’t help but question it. You quickly compose yourself and look down at the papers.

“Isn’t it a bit too early?” You ask while briefly scanning the papers. “I still have two months left, not that I’m not grateful but where is this coming from?” This was happening too suddenly, Kevin was good with warning you about the activities that go on behind the scenes of your parole and he didn’t even mention the thought of an early release.

The brunette man lets out a sigh, running his hair through his long hair. He then leans his elbows on the table with his head propped up on his palms, he opens his mouth to answer but is cut off by the office door opening.

The new Captain America and his sidekick come waltzing in, a few of his goons following as well. He didn’t need the uniform or shield for you to recognize him since his face has been plastered on every channel since they came forward with him. He’s all everyone could talk about.

“He released you.” You barely hear Kevin as your mind goes into spirals. What the hell did this guy want? Why is he even here? What the hell did he want with you?

Plot: Leo returns to the hospital after resting for what he thought would have been long enough, after all he’s a doctor and the hospital is where he should be, so why is he still so afraid of an empty room?

Note: sorry I had to repost, I noticed a mistake and for some reason I couldn’t edit it, thanks a lot tumblr! ok I’ve never actually written a fanfic before so there is a good chance this might suck, so if it does please feel free to offer constructive criticism! I know I really need to improve, but I tried my best and what more can you do? P.S. It’s so hard to write two guys cause I say “he” or “his” way too much and I end up using names far more than I should

Tags: @aokamitahafu

Leo’s steps faltered as he exited the elevator, his eyes darted a few feet to his right and stopped on a patient room, the very same room that not too long ago he had been poisoned in, the same room he had broken down and kicked a bed when he thought he was going to die, the same room where he had cried and held onto Ethan, praying that it wouldn’t be the last human contact he would get.

He took in a faltering breath and almost turned around to flee right back into the elevator, but after a second he clenched his jaw, held his patient chart tightly against his chest and turned to walk down the hall, hoping to just get past the room as soon as possible.

A part of him understood why his chest was feeling tight and his hands were subtly shaking at his sides, but another bigger part was screaming at him that he was being stupid, that it had been weeks since he was confined in that room, shrouded with plastic and weighted down by fear.

His steps faltered right in front of the door and he peered into the room, ‘go inside’ his mind whispered, ‘you shouldn’t be so scared, it’s just a room and after all you survived, you lived, Danny and Bobby didn’t get that luxury���

He took a small step forward, his hand coming up to brush against the doorframe, that gentle touch was what did it, such a simple thing seemed to break him.

All at once he was stumbling back and hyperventilating, he couldn’t focus with the panic suddenly running through his head, screaming at him to move, because that room wasn’t safe, it wasn’t clean, it was filled with gas and oh God he couldn’t breath, that was where he had laid and cried, accepting death because it had already claimed Danny and Bobby, why wouldn’t he be next?

He didn’t even register the clattering of the chart he dropped, he didn’t fight his instincts and just turned and bolted down the hallway, racing towards the closest closet and barging inside, slamming the door behind him and immediately collapsing to the floor.

He let out a barely restrained sob, the sound tearing from his throat and filling the small room, he reached up and clapped a hand against his mouth, hoping to muffle the noise that was trying to escape.

His eyes burned as tears filled them and spilled over his cheeks, dripping down his hand and down towards the floor.

He rushed removing his hand for only a moment, to forcefully tear off his coat, the fabric suddenly feeling suffocating and the texture causing his skin to itch.

A fresh wave of panic washed over him when he realized that he was indeed itchy, that had been one of the symptoms hadn’t it? He vaguely remembered being unbearably itchy as he sat on the hospital bed, consumed by fear.

He whimpered and sat up straight, his hand coming down to scratch roughly at his neck, it was back, the itch was back and he couldn’t stop scratching.

He no longer even attempted to quiet the loud cries that were coming from his mouth, all he could focus on was the itch and the tight feeling in his lungs.

He leaned heavily against the wall and tried to breath, but all that came out was heavy wheezing and although the itch in his neck was fading he couldn’t stop scratching, his hands becoming wet from the years that still flowed down his face and now neck.

His nails dug harshly into his own skin as he cried, each breath he took seemed to burn his lungs and throat, a pain that had become so familiar.

His panic only increased when the door slid open a crack, light spilling across the floor “Leo is that you?” A slightly fearful voice asked.

It immediately clicked in Leo’s mind who was coming in, it was Ethan, but Leo knew he couldn’t, he couldn’t let Ethan come in, not if he was somehow infected again, not if he was a danger to people.

So he did what he knew was needed and reached over to slam the door back closed “don’t come in!” He tried to tell, but the hoarse feeling in his throat caused it to me more of a pathetic croak.

“What? Why? Leo what’s going on?” Ethan’s words were becoming panicked, the door handle rattling as he tried to enter the closet despite Leo’s warning.

Leo let out another broken sob and leaned heavily against the door, bracing himself against the floor to keep it closed, keeping Ethan away so he wasn’t in danger.

Because he couldn’t put Ethan at risk, he couldn’t let him be exposed to this, not when he knew what it was like, not when he was sure he was going to die.

“It’s happening again” he whimpered, “I’m sick again, I went in the room and I couldn’t breath, I have to be sick again” his voice cracked and he vaguely registered that his nails were once again scratching along the now sensitive skin of his neck ���I won’t get you sick, I already got Danny and Bobby killed, I won’t let you die!” he sobbed.

Ethan’s voice left behind his frantic tone and lowered to softer concern “Leo, you’re not sick” he said, a sudden sadness leaking into his words “you're not sick, you’re just scared”

Leo shook his head and curled into himself “I am, I can’t stop itching, I can’t breath, Ethan I can’t breath!” He cried out, “those were the symptoms, I was itchy and I couldn’t breath when it happened!” He knew his voice was rising to a level that was inappropriate for a hospital, but he couldn’t seem to stop, he was scared and Ethan wasn’t leaving, he wasn’t getting help.

A moment of silence followed and for a moment Leo thought Ethan had left, gone to get help, to find someone who could quarantine Leo, he could once again wrap him in plastic and prod him with needles, but then Ethan’s voice floated through the door again and it was softer than Leo had ever heard it.

“Leo I promise that you aren’t sick, do you think I would ever lie to you about that? you’re just scared and I need you to let me in there” he said, in a gentle tone that Leo had only ever heard when they shared stolen moments alone.

Leo opened his mouth to protest, to say it wasn’t safe, that he must be sick, because if he wasn’t sick then he was just being stupid, he was just crying and hiding in a closet because he couldn’t handle walking past a room, but his words died when Ethan interrupted “if I wear a hazmat suit will you let me in?” He asked.

He paused for a moment before answering with a weak “yes” as he curled up into himself, trying to fight back even more tears, because he didn’t want Ethan to see him like this again, he didn’t want to be seen at all, but at the same time he didn’t want to be alone.

A few minutes passed before there was a gentle knock on the door “come in” he muttered weakly, scooting himself away from the door so it would open fully.

The light was briefly blocked out as Ethan entered the closet, the crinkling of plastic filling the small space, he had put on a hazmat suit and the bulky suit made more noise than Leo remembered.

Leo swallowed thickly and looked up at Ethan, his eyes burning again as more tears welled in his eyes, he quickly lifted his hand to scrub at them, hoping that Ethan wouldn’t say anything and instead would just sit with him.

His hope however was lost when Ethan felt along the wall and flicked on the closet light, something Leo had failed to do in his panicked state.

The light flared to life and Leo hissed, screwing his eyes shut and looking down, the bright light burning his eyes, which had already grown used to the dark closet.

“Leo what did you do?” Ethan’s shocked question was enough to get Leo to lift his head and stare up at him, wondering what Ethan could be referring to, was it the scattered bags that held syringes that Leo must have knocked carelessly from a shelf without noticing, was it the coat that lay a few feet away, tangled around the leg of a shelf.

But Ethan’s eyes didn’t even glance at those things, his gaze was fixed on Leo with a mild horror “let me see” he whispered, dropping to the ground beside Leo and reaching out.

Leo scotched back and shook his head “you shouldn’t touch me” he whispered, glad that he no longer needed to raise his voice to be heard “I might be sick again”

Ethan clenched his fists and suddenly reached up to yank the top from his suit, he ignored Leo’s cry of protested and just dropped the helmet to the floor “you’re not sick and even if you were I would be exposed now” he said before gesturing towards Leo’s neck “I need to clean those” he added.

Leo momentarily forgot his panic at Ethan removing his suit and blinked in confusion “what?” He asked, his hand coming up to brush over his neck, he pulled his fingers back when he felt a sudden sharp pain, he looked down and froze when he saw his hand was stained a coppery red, coated with a thin layer of his own blood.

He had been so caught up in his own panicked thoughts that he hadn’t realized when his nails had broken skin, when they had drawn blood and mixed with his tears.

A soft “oh” was all he managed to get out before the tears returned and he was curling in on himself again, silent sobs racking through his tired body.

Leo startles when a gentle touch brushed against his arm and he was being pulled against a strong chest, he felt Ethan’s fingers running something softly along his neck, whatever was being put on the scratches caused a slight burning sensation, but Leo found himself reveling in the feeling, because it wasn’t the itching from before.

He blinked as a few more tears fell from his eyes, the drops soaking into Ethan’s shirt, but he didn’t move away, he just continued to care for the injuries adorning Leo’s neck.

Leo swallowed thickly and slowly brought his arms up to wrap around Ethan’s body, holding onto him so tightly it must have been uncomfortable and yet still Ethan didn’t move or protest, he let Leo cling to him and cry against his chest even after he finished cleaning the cuts that Leo had caused himself.

They remained like that for a few minutes, neither of them speaking, Ethan with his hand resting on Leo’s back and Leo’s face resting against Ethan’s chest, his hands tangled in the back of Ethan’s short, fisting the fabric repeatedly.

After a few more moments of silence Leo opened his mouth to speak “I’m sorry” he whispered, still refusing to move his head from where it rested on Ethan’s body “I freaked out, it was so stupid and I’m sorry” he choked out.

A feeling of shame was curling around him as he spoke, his head was pounding like it always did after he cried and his neck ached, but he had to say this, he had to apologize, because he was sorry, he was sorry for crying and hiding in a closet, he was sorry that he couldn’t even walk into a room without panicking and thinking he was dying, he was sorry for so many things and he needed Ethan to know that.

But his apology was cut short when Ethan’s arms tightened around him and he was being pulled impossibly closer “Don’t apologize, please don’t apologize” he said, his lips suddenly pressed against Leo’s hair “Leo it’s ok, what you went through was traumatic, you almost-“

Ethan stopped mid sentence and shifted around in an attempt to situate Leo more comfortably “you almost died” he finished, choking out the word like it physically pained him to say.

“You’re not stupid for being scared, when you were still in the hospital recovering I got scared every time I went to check on you, scared that I would go in you’re room and you would be sick again and scared that you would die” Ethan was talking slowly, the confession coming out like he was ashamed of it.

“If I reacted that way when I went in the room, then I can’t imagine how you feel even being back in the hospital, let alone the room where it happened” he continued, all while brushing his hand softly along Leo’s back, hoping to bring some semblance of comfort to his terrified colleague.

Leo drew in a shaky breath and felt his lip tremble from another wave of oncoming tears, this time his cries were silent, muffled against Ethan’s body and quieted by Leo’s own guilt of crying.

He thought Ethan was finished talking, having offered all the comfort he could manage, but he was proven wrong when Ethan’s voice filled the small room once again “earlier when you were crying you said that you already got Danny and Bobby killed and that you wouldn’t let me die as well” he whispered, “did you mean that?”

Leo swallowed thickly and slowly nodded his head “It’s my fault, I should have figured it out sooner, if I had just realized what Travis was doing sooner, I could have stopped it”

Ethan sighed and shook his head and rocked Leo back and forth “that’s not true, if it was then I would be just as much at fault as you, I was treating the senator as well and I didn’t connect the dots to what Travis was doing” he murmured.

Leo furrowed his eyebrows and struggled to sit up straight, locking eyes with Ethan “but even after I did figure it out I was stupid-“

“No, no Leo stop, you are not to blame for anything that happened, you are a victim, nothing you could have done would have stopped Travis from doing what he did” Ethan’s words were frantic as he tried to reassure Leo.

Once again Leo felt the uncomfortable tightening in his chest and he took a long, deep breath to try and keep himself from descending into another spiral of panic “I think logically I know that, but a bigger part of me feels so responsible for what happened that I can’t stop thinking about it, I can’t get this guilt out of my head”

Ethan’s grip tightened around Leo and he leaned his head back “I hate that man for what he put you through, for what he did, I don’t know if I’ve ever hated someone as much as I despise Travis” he admitted, his fingers tangling into Leo’s soft black hair, “When I went to see him, to ask what was in the canister, I was standing over him and he was in so much pain, he begged me for more pain medication and I gave it to him, but for a moment, for a single moment I seriously considered walking away and letting him suffer”

Leo’s eyes widened a comical amount at the confession and he struggled to sit up, his face mere inches from Ethan’s “are you serious?” He asked, a look of shock painting his tear stained face.

Ethan closed his eyes so he wouldn’t have to look at Leo’s disappointed expression “I know it was unethical to even consider it, but Leo all I could think about was you and how scared you looked, how terrified you must have been just sitting in that room and wondering when you were going to die”

Leo lifted a shaky hand and placed it against Ethan’s cheek, his thumb brushing along the soft skin under Ethan’s eye “I hate him too you know, but we’re doctors Ethan, we can’t go around letting people suffer just because we don’t like them”

Ethan chuckled quietly and opened his eyes, turning his head to press a chaste kiss against Leo’s hand “I know that, but I was so angry at him that for a minute I forgot and I just wanted him to hurt”

Leo leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to Ethan’s lips, savoring in the feeling of having Ethan close to him, of being held like this.

Ethan let out a quiet hum and smiled into the kiss “do you feel well enough to come out of the closet? I can drive you home” he suggested, a gentle smile adoring his face that he reserved for Leo’s eyes only.

Leo pushed himself away from Ethan and reached across the floor to grab his discarded coat “I’ll come out, but I’m not going home, it’s my first day back and I can’t just leave”

His protests were met with a thoroughly unimpressed look for Ethan “do you think I’m going to let you work after what just happened?” He asked, “no, not happening, I’m taking you home”

Leo opened his mouth to continue his futile protests, but was cut off with a sudden kiss “if you don’t want to be home alone then you can come to my place, but you are not staying here”

After a quiet moment of contemplation Leo just nodded and held out his hand for Ethan to help him up “ok, but I’m coming in tomorrow and I promise I won’t freak out”

Ethan stood up and took Leo’s hand in his own, helping the young doctor to his feet and pulling him closer to him “if you insist upon coming in tomorrow then I won’t stop you, but Leo no one will judge you if you decide to extend your break”

Leo smiled and rubbed his tired eyes “I know, but I need to get back to work soon, I can’t live in fear of the hospital my whole life”

Ethan nodded in understanding and reached out to open the still shut door of the closet “well whenever you’re ready is when you should come back, not a moment before” he told him gently.

They stood there for a moment longer before Ethan leaned down and gave Leo a last kiss, opening the door right after and ushering him out “come on let’s get going, so you want your place or mine?” He asked.

Leo smiled brightly and reached over to squeeze Ethan’s hand “your place please, your bed is bigger”

Ethan rolled his eyes, but nodded nonetheless “your wish is my command Rookie” he grinned, their steps leading them past the room that caused all this panic in the first place and into the elevator.

Leo looked at Ethan in surprise before letting out a bright laugh “you haven’t called me Rookie in months, I missed it” he said with a soft smile adoring his lips.

Ethan smiled along with him and looked down at Leo with the gentlest expression that had ever adorned his face “well I’ll have to bring it back into rotation if it makes you smile like that”

Once again Leo laughed as the doors of the elevator closed and their decent through the hospital began.

Note: alright for a first ever attempt at a fanfic I don’t think I did too bad, but like I said at the beginning feel free to offer criticism! 🥺

A Story’s Analyzation Chapter 4: A New Someone, and the Judgement on Pride

Summary: A new person seems to have entered.... And some Lucifer Hurt/Angst(?) (I am sorry, it gets good in the next chapter.)

I am not very proud about this chapter tbh. (Because of mistakes and stuff)

‘….

Ah, Reader it has been what? Five days?

*sigh* I’ve been a little busy you see….

“Narukou” makes me work a lot without break! *pouts*

Hm? Why do I call her “Narukou”? When you and I know that she is “her”?

Hmm…

Well, what about you? Why do you call her “Narukou” too when she wants you to call her “Lilith”? *Smiles at you and laughs*

Your face is very cute when you pout like that, you know?

Don’t worry I’ll tell you, since I have broken one of the “rules” of this universe.

Its because the story hasn’t progressed to “that” point of the story. The point, where you, the Mc gets to know about “Lilith”.

Hey now, don’t look at me like that! Its not my fault that the guys who created this decided to reveal about her so late in the story!

*sigh* Look I am not the one who created the story it is “Her” and those other guys who did.

…

Pfft-

HAHAHAHAAHAHA

S-sorry, you just looked so angry it was just too funny! Hehe!

………..

Reader, do you ever feel like, you’re a little different? Sometimes? And that you would rather wish to be like everyone else? Because, it feels like that no one will love you if you are “different”? That you will die alone if you continue being “different”?

…!!!!

Ah, there isn’t a reason- I-I just was asking out of curiosity…. But still can you give your answer at least, in the notes? I mean, this is tumblr... right?

….

Did- Did I broke damn wall?!

…..

Gaaaahhh!  *Hides face in embarrassment, is blushing hard*

*Tries to calm down*

Ahem, I’m sorry, for doing that….

???

You don’t mind? *Is still blushing* Ah, um, alright…

Hm? You want to know my name?

….

*sigh* Sorry, Reader, but I can’t…..

…

It’s because “She” and I are…….. a same person…….

Yes, one of the creators….

She is the “RE-Tuner of Destiny”.

I’m…….  Let’s just say a “self-insert” of “Her”.

To be honest, “She” is the one who is close to Lilith, not me……

Lilith…. Sorry, “Narukou”, was sent here to me under her orders….

I used to be a part of “Her” until, “She” decided to “retune” the whole story.

The funny thing is that, even “She” was a part of another person.

You know- *“Narukou” arrives bringing tea, after pouring in the cups she says something*

Ah, we were talking about the story. About how funny it was in last scene, hehe.

*“Narukou” nods and goes somewhere else*

*sigh* *Leans in*

*In a hushed voice* Keep this conversation a secret, please? It will our little secret, ok?

*smiles* Thanks!

Anyways, you should return back, I’m sure you want to know what happens next right? Especially after that funny “cliffhanger” right? Hehe.

Hey, Reader, wherever you are reading this, just know that I’m here to support you to even if I can’t help you from here. Even if I am Useless.....

Eh? Why am I saying this?

*smiles* Its because I know that Life is sometimes difficult……

So…. I want to help in any way I can!

You can come here anytime you want, the doors are always open for you!

Well, I won’t stall your time anymore so, we’ll meet next time alright?’

Mc continues to pet Cerberus lovingly, while Cerberus purrs happily, while, Lucifer…… Well, is again stuck. “Uh, Lucifer?” Mc asks finally noticing Lucifer. Lucifer face looks between confused, horrified and just pure shock. “Hey, you ok there, buddy?”

Lucifer after what felt like eternity, finally snaps his attention to them, “Mc, how could you subdue, Cerberus? Especially after meeting for the first time?”

“Ah….. um….. Cause’ he is a good boy?” Mc says uncertainly while looking at Lucifer. While, said good boy woofs with excitement after hearing this. Mc looks at Cerberus with love, but then directs their attention back to him. He has a thoughtful expression on his face. It’s silent like this until they decide to break the ice, “Um, Lucifer lets go back…. I’m a little tired and sleepy, ok?”

“….” He seems unsure.

“Please, I’m know, even you had a long day, right?”

“…Yes.”

“Then, let’s go!” they say as they head towards the tomb’s door. Lucifer looks at them and follows them after looking back at Cerberus.

Both of them go their respective rooms. Lucifer sits down on his huge bed and rethinks about the events that transpired that day. A smile grows on his face as he thinks, ‘Just who are you?’

 ************

Mc sighs as they open their door to their room. “!!! What are you doing here?”

“Hey now, I’m not here to steal your stuff or anything!” Mammon speaks as he looks at them with an annoyed expression.

“What do you want, Mammon?”

He grumbles and mumbles something to himself and then says, “What did you do? I mean to those demons who attacked ya.”

“Oh, I just taught them a lesson.”

“……What were ya doing in Lucifer’s room?”

“Talking.”

“Talking about what?”

“What is this, an interrogation?”

“Yes, ya are my responsibility so I should know about it.”

“Responsibility? Don’t make me laugh! You ditched me! Not to mention you weren’t even interested in me before all of this!” They speak angrily.

“……Look I- Tch. I know I messed up. I’m sorry.”

“…. I don’t know.”

He looks at them with shock and then anger. “Fine, then die for all I care.” He gets up to leave and opens the door.

…..

“OI! This is part where you beg me not to leave!” he looks at them.

“Oh?” they smirk at him, “But didn’t you just told me die?”

“I-I that-! GAAAh! Look I am sorry!” he looks at the other side, “so much for looking cool and serious….”

“Pffft- hahahahahaahahhhahahaha!”

“OI, don’t laugh at me!”

“But you are so- hahaha!”

“Oi, knock it off! Or I won’t give ya, yer gift!”

They stop to look at him, “You got me a gift?” they smirk.

“Well, I was gonna! But now I won’t!” he looks at them with big grin on his face.

“I- what?”

“What happen’ regretting it now?”

They sigh, looking at him and then it hits to them, “So you were worried about me!”

“Wha- NO”

“You came here to check on me if was alright!”

“Wait- no-”

“You truly are cute, Mammon!”

“I am NOT cute!”

“Yes, you are!”

“NO!”

“Yes!”

“NOO!”

“Yes!”

“NOO-”

“Pfft-” surprisingly the both of them started to laugh together. Mammon looked at them with a small blush on his face.

“MAMMON Shut UP!” a new voice comes from the outside of their room.

Oh no, it was Asmodeus. Asmodeus looks at Mammon as if saying ‘get out now’. While Mammon’s face says ‘No you’.

“Uh, hey….” They try to greet him. Asmodeus looks at Mc with a smirk and goes over to you.

“Hey there, cutie!” he tries to take Mc’s hand and is successful much their dismay, “I heard about your brave story today! Tell me how did you do that? Are humans capable of doing this? Anyways, I here to give you skincare!”

“What-why?”

“Because I want to! After all, fighting is not good for your skin, Darling! Plus, I want to bond with you!”

“Oh, um… Thanks, I guess…”

“Great so let’s start now!” he says happily.

“Oi, get out now Asmodeus!”

“Why should I?”

“Because I am the second eldest.”

“Then my dear second eldest brother, kindly get out.”

“OI, respect your brother!”

“I did say it respectfully, you know?”

“Ahh, get out now I still want to talk to them.”

“Then do that later, scumbag.”

“Oi.” Mammon looks like he is ready to fight, “Tch. Back at ya, horndog!”

“Mammon? What did you say?” Asmodeus now looks like he is ready to fight too. ‘Oh no.’ Mc thinks to themselves.

“Ya heard me right. Now, get out!”

“No, you should get out!”

“Hah? Why would I? I mean what would happen if yer horny ass was tryin’ to get into Mc’s pants again?! Yer far more dangerous to them!”

“Guys, lets stop-” Mc was trying to stop to no avail.

“Says the one who ditched them!”

‘Mc control your anger…’ they think again.

“Shut up, horny!”

“Shut up, scum!”

‘That’s it.’

“BOTH OF YOU OUT OF MY ROOM NOW!” their roar at the two of them in the dead of the night.

 *************

Lucifer looks around the dinning table ‘today is quiet’ he thinks. He sees as Asmodeus and Mammon refuse to look at each other and everyone else is just normal. He looks at Mammon who is looking serious and is sitting on the chair beside Mc’s, who hasn’t still come down yet. ‘How on the Devildom, this brother of mine is silent today?’ he thinks puzzled, ‘is this a miracle?’

Well, the miracle didn’t last after Mc finally enters the dinning room.

“G’Mornin’ Mc!” Mammon says loudly. “Ah, good morning Mammon, as energetic as ever I see.” They smile at him. Mammon wears a big grin and continues to talk to them only to be interrupted by Asmodeus, “Good morning, Darling! Hey, how about we do the skincare session today after RAD?”

“Yeah, sure. But I will kick you out if do something indecent.” They say as they bring the plate filled with food.

“Oi, Mc will be hanging out with me after RAD.” Mammon says with big victory smile as Lucifer chokes on his coffee.

“They are?” Lucifer asks unsure.

“I will?” Mc asks looking Mammon with a question mark on their face.

“Yeah, you will!” he says. Lucifer looks at the scene with a little anger. But this was not the normal one it was as if……. He was jealous……

‘Wait…. I’m jealous? But…. Why?!’ He thinks looking at his coffee with confusion and anger, it is Mc’s voice that bring him out of his thoughts, “Actually, I was thinking about going to the Library with Satan, if you don’t mind.” They say looking at Satan.

Satan looks at Lucifer, and smirks as if he knows what is Lucifer thinking about, and then looks at Mc and finally says, “of course it will be my pleasure, Mc.” He practically purrs at them which goes unnoticed by them but not by Lucifer.

Lucifer bangs the table and gets up, “Diavolo said I need to come at RAD early, as today a very important meeting is being held. Excuse me.” After this, he then leaves the Dinning room with an unreadable expression, leaving his confused brothers (except Satan) and a little worried Mc.

‘Interesting…..’ Satan thinks to himself as a mischievous smile blooms on his face.

***********

After that day, Satan hangs out with Mc for many days. Asmodeus sometimes teases Satan saying he has a crush on them, all while Mammon screams at the top of his lungs saying that he is in charge of them and that they are his human. Mc always laughs with amusement during such scenes….. It has been weeks Lucifer doesn’t say anything about his feelings until, one day his repressed jealousy turned into boiling anger. He enters into Mammon’s room.

“MAAAAAMOOOON.” He said as he stood behind said demon.

“Eek- Ah, uh, Lucifer, yes? Big bro, wha-wha-wha-what happened?”

“What is the meaning of this?!” he says as he literally throws piles of unpaid bills at his brother.

“……”

“How many times? Huh? Tell me, how many times I told you to control your greedy habits?!”

“……”

“Tch, sometimes I hate you, Mammon.”

“!!!” Mammon looks at him tears threatening to fall any minute. Mammon looks away from his brother ashamed.

“You truly are useless scum, Mammon.” He says with an ugly scowl. ‘Stop it’ his mind tells him but ‘say it. Say it more. Show him his place’ his pride sneers.

“If Mammon is a scum, you are not any wiser, Lucifer.” A mocking voice come from behind.

“…Mc”

“Lucifer.” they say, “What is this?”

“Its none of your damn business, human.”

“It is, if my friend is in trouble.”

Jealousy eats him even more, hearing the word ‘friend’. ‘They became close, huh’ but he continues, “And what do you mean by, I’m not wiser? At least I’m not a scumbag who spends his money like whatever! Tell me Mc am I wrong to call him that?”

“…..Yes, yes you are.”

“….” Lucifer goes into his demon form. He has a threatening purple aura around him. “Oh? I am? How amusing! Tell me how I am wrong!” he is at this point, yelling.

“Mc, run now!” Mammon calls out to them, scared.

“…..First of all, you are literally the Avatar of Pride. You always let your pride talk instead of your true self…… Lucifer, you are being hypocrite, if you are blaming Mammon to indulge in his sin. True, his habits are not good, true, he should control them, but what about you? You, who refuses to create a boundary for your pride to control YOUR life. You behave as if you bow to no one, but you do to your pride. Lucifer, self-dignity and being a control freak of an asshole is different. You are doing the latter. If you think Mammon is weak for giving into his sin, then you Lucifer, are the weakest since all other brothers actually try to control their sins if the situation requires them to do so! Even Asmo controls himself around me now! So, stop being Mr. Perfect because you are NOT! You are weak, weak to the sin you embody. Let me tell you if don’t change your ways, if you learn to control your sin mark my words you will lose everything even before you realize it!” Mc huffs and looks at Lucifer only to meet with a deadly look on his face.

“YOU DARE TO INSULT ME?! TO HUMILIATE ME?! WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOURSELF? SOMEONE GREATER THAN ME? YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A WEAK, PATHETIC LEECH OF A HUMAN! I WILL TEAR YOU APART LIMB BY LIMB AND HANG YOUR REMAINS FOR EVERYONE TO SEE, SO THEY WOULD NOT DARE TO SPEAK SO ARROGANTLY WITH ME!”

“…..” Mc looks at Mammon with a reassuring smile. “M-Mc, Run away now, why are you smiling?!”

“Mammon, bring your brothers and Lord Diavolo for me, will you?” they say still wear a smile.

“I’m not leaving ya here!”

But Mc smirks at him, saying something no rather…… chanting a spell?!

“Wha-”

“Please do as I requested, Mammon.”

“MC NO-” Mammon screams as he is teleported to a different location due to the spell.

“……” they turn to look at Lucifer. He looks actually very horrifyingly scary. Lucifer looks at Mc like a crazed lunatic.

“See? I told you, you are weak. So much that you even lost control of your anger…..”

Lucifer only loudly growls at them.

“….Let’s you help out of this, hm? I wanted to talk to you, and I’m not leaving until we do. After all, I haven’t chatted with for weeks, you know?”

Lucifer attacks them.

“I must say, it’s a shame that we have to go through this……”

Enjoy!

His head was pounding. Blinding white light filled his vision, and the heat produced burned through Jason’s senses. His nerves were on fire, and standing was an unimaginably painful ordeal, akin to only one previous experience. The acidic burn of the Lazarus effects ran rivers through his veins, as if reminding him of that horrid experience. It seemed almost fuelled by something.

 Standing, Jason was surrounded by dark woods in every direction, his vision framed by twisted oaks and pines with outstretched, groping branches. Lifting his eyes to the sky, he could see a shine of moonlight, but the pearl was hidden by thick blankets of cloud. This whole place… it didn’t make any sense.

He had last been in Gotham, leaping from rooftop to gargoyle, grapple hook and gun in hand. He had been hot on the trail of some drug traffickers; some new group that thought they were hot shit. He knew the Bat would be on it, but he wasn’t about to leave these guys unpunished. He still had the photographs of those teenagers; young and callous, all just wanting to experiment. The gang made quick work of them when they didn’t pay up.

 There was a crack of a twig underfoot, and Jason was on edge. He turned, realising his helmet’s in-built monitoring systems were fried. They sparked around his head, and the feeling burned. He smacked his metal hood, but it did little to fix the picture.

 He moved forward, on edge and prepared for anything. Take it slow, be methodical. He couldn’t afford to be injured now or caught off guard, especially since he must have been before when someone had abducted him and dumped him out here. His breath heaved deep within his throat, far too loud for Jason’s liking. Perhaps he had suffered from an injury he was unfamiliar with. Apart from the Lazarus’ acidic heat and the pain behind his eyes, he didn’t feel much different.

 He had reached the path where he had heard movement. He found the stick, broken in half, and half a footprint in the dirt. The sole of some sneaker or boots. It was a light form, that much he could tell, and rather small. He followed it closely, and from here, he scanned the surrounding area. The mainframe sparked.

 He could just barely make out a hand, resting lightly against the wood of a tree, bloodied and bruised knuckles on display. Pale skin and a frail arm from what he could determine. He approached, and that hand hurriedly removed itself from the tree trunk. He could just make out the shape of a body behind the tree standing from a crouched position.

 A head of straw, blonde hair had turned the tree, but Jason only got a good look at their grey-green eyes, pink around the edges as if they had been crying. Those eyes had widened at his notice, and suddenly, the girl was running in the opposite direction.

 ‘Wait!’ He called out. He could barely understand himself through the damaged helm. His voice was warped; a mess of a human cry and a deep reverb from the whirring of the helmet’s struggling functions. She didn’t wait. If anything, she picked up the pace.

 He didn’t wish to cause her further alarm, but she could probably tell him where he was. He didn’t much care for children, but he didn’t want to scare her. He was on her tail in a moment, coming up on her quickly. They were coming upon some damaged, brick ruins when she passed through a gap. His hand was out, reaching for her. If he could just stop her, he could talk to her and explain himself.

 There was the sudden pain of something striking him across the head. Splinters of wood and nail flew in an arc above his shoulders, as a haphazardly crafted pallet of sorts came down upon him. Okay. He was getting a bit pissed now. He raised his right leg high in a strong arc, bringing it down and destroying the pallet in a single kick.

 He looked about the ruins, wondering for a moment as to where she could disappear to. A red locker stood to his right, but he couldn’t hear any breathing or creaking wood. She wasn’t there. He stepped forward, until he came to an open window space. He reached down suddenly, gripping a head of blonde hair in his gloved hand and pulling the child up into view.

 Confusion struck him immediately upon realising that this was a teenager or young adult. She was holding her head, trying to relieve the pain his grip had on her scalp. She was panicked, chest rising fervently. He let her go, climbing through the window carefully after her. She stepped back, nursing her temples, eyes wide and watching his every move.

 ‘Who are you?’ Again, his voice was a confused mess of sound, the volume apparently louder than she would have like. Her hands were to her ears, and she was stepping back away from him.

 ‘D-Don’t come any closer!’

 ‘I don’t want to hurt you.’

 It seemed that she thought differently. She was turned away and running at full tilt in the opposite direction. He just didn’t understand it. How had he grown, and how on Earth was his helmet this damaged? He felt sweat building under his gloves, and gave himself a moment of reprieve. However, Jason was astounded by the sight of what lay underneath.

 His hands were their pale white, but his veins were alight, bright green and seemingly shifting underneath his skin. What the fuck was this?!

 A scream cut his thoughts off. Then the sound of a chainsaw.

  ~X~

  It was a new one. Another one! She had to inform the others. She didn’t understand why it didn’t give chase, but that thing watched her leave. The sparking of that red, metallic mask and the pulse of green veins on the neck made her sick. Cheryl had no idea what that thing was, but like Hell was she going to wait for an explanation.

 She was running blindly through the woods, she had almost completely forgotten what she had been hiding from in the first place. That was, until she stumbled upon that freak’s handiwork. She tripped over an obstruction in the dirt, peering down to the sight of Jane’s top half. She was missing part of her midsection, where a chainsaw’s blade had rattled through and split her down the middle.

 The red seeped over Cheryl’s legs, dying them that awful colour. She was on her feet, struggling to hold in her stomach’s contents. She held her hands tight to her lips, trying to prevent sick or a scream from passing them. She felt a hand on her shoulder. She screamed.

 ‘Shshshsh-Shush!’ It was Dwight, in her face and holding a finger to his lips. His glasses were broken, but it was the pool of scarlet in his shoulder that concerned her. ‘W-We need to go!’ His voice was hushed; frantic. Cheryl nodded.

 ‘T-There’s another-’

 ‘Don’t worry about that one! Worry abou-’ There was the telltale rattle of a chainsaw’s engine. They ducked down behind a few bushes, looking up in time to see that face with taut skin pulled across svelte muscle. The sunken, dark eyes stared at them, and there was that growl deep within its throat. The chainsaw swung high above their heads, just grazing Cheryl’s shoulder. She cried out.

 ‘Run!’ Dwight didn’t have to tell her twice. She was back on her feet and racing to the nearest bricked gym. It wasn’t much, but it was better than nothing. She vaulted through a gap in the wall, cringing at the sound of metal shredding through brick. Red dust swirled into the air and sparks flew high at the collision.

 He climbed through the wall after her, and though she was ahead, the revving chainsaw grew louder in her ear, until he was upon her. She felt it imbed itself into her back, and was removed just as quickly. It always astounded her how the hillbilly managed to remove it before permanent damage was done. It was almost a sick and twisted form of art.

 She raised her head, looking around for Dwight. Where was he?! Her voice was weak. She cried out when those unwanted arms reached down and around her. Through the pain, she only just realised that piece of shrapnel Laurie had given her earlier fell from her pocket. There was no getting out of this.

 ‘H-Hel-!’ Her voice cracked. She could barely think through the pain. That arm pulled tight over her back, and no matter how weakly her fists pounded against flesh, he wasn’t letting go.

 ‘Help!’ She tried again. A little louder.

 Suddenly, there was a roar from her captor, and she was on the ground. She whipped her head around, in time to see that freakish monster from before standing between her and the hillbilly. Knife raised, she could see those acidic green veins pulsing on his hands. She didn’t understand.

 There was a bellowing reverb from behind that mask, and suddenly they were clashing. The hillbilly’s arms swung a wide arc with the chainsaw, and the red hooded creature leapt back. He leapt forward, striking with the blade until the hilt dug deep into the right shoulder. Cheryl noted a gun on its right hip; it was removed from its holster and hastily, three shots were fired.

 There was another roar from the hillbilly, as a bullet shredded through its cheek, a bullet digging deep into its eye and the hand that gripped the chainsaw. He dropped it. Cheryl scrambled back and away from the two giants as they did battle. She had never seen this before. It was… unprecedented.

 The hillbilly pulled up his hammer, dropping the chainsaw and starting on wide swings of his weapon. One collided into the ribs of the second monster, and there was a warped cry through the scratch of metal. The hillbilly’s taut skin pulled back around his mouth, as if laughing. Suddenly, that laugh was cut short by a crack of a gunshot.

 The hillbilly dropped, a single, explosive bullet hole leaving behind an opening the size of Cheryl’s fist in the monster’s forehead. Skull fragments and brain matter had spread about in all directions. This time, Cheryl did throw up.

 She felt her body wretch and force up the few things she had eaten in the last day, and through it all, one of those large hands rested gently upon her back. Once she was finished spewing, she raised her gaze up at the red hooded creature, and felt those strong arms gather her up, cradling her.

 There was a bellow of sound, and she rose her hands to her ears, desperate to shut out the reverb and shrieking metal. It stopped as suddenly as it started. Through the damaged helm, she could see one, burning green eye. Unlike all the other killers, masked or otherwise, she could see those eyes held something she had never seen before. At least, nothing she had seen in a killer’s gaze.

 ‘Cheryl!’ Dwight’s voice echoed out from his position, and he exited from a locker. He was panicked, watching her with wide eyes. He kept his distance, but she could see how he was trying to get the creature’s attention.

 ‘Stop! Dwight, please!’ She looked up at the creature. Those eyes that had shifted to the injured Dwight had returned to her. They were patient.

 ‘A-Are you going to hurt me?’ It shook its head.

 ‘Cheryl, you know we can’t t-trust it!’

 ‘Shut up!’ She barked back. She soothed her temper with a deep breath, looking past his broad shoulders and down at the collapsed body of the hillbilly. She knew he would be back. They always were. But for now… The monster was gone.

 ‘Are you g-going to help-p us?’

 He nodded again, and started walking forward towards Dwight. When Dwight skirted away, Cheryl threw the cowering man a threatening look. The man held his position, though it seemed like he was about to piss himself. She turned her eyes back up to the creature.

 ‘O-Our hideout is t-t-that way.’ She said, gesturing past Dwight and deep into the trees. The creature didn’t pay Dwight much mind as he passed him, and headed deep into the woods. He did slow down so the man could catch up, but he kept Cheryl tight in his arms. He didn’t let her down for a moment.

 And yet, Cheryl never felt safer.

DR3 boys react to an S/O being accused of murder in the killing game

For some reason Tumblr won’t let me respond to this one directly so I’m making a completely separate post so I hope whoever requested it sees it! Anyway this is super angsty and I hope y’all like it! sorry it took so long for me to get out bit this past weekend was pretty busy and this was a bit of a long one.

-mod korekiyo 

Shuichi Saihara

He’s confused

How could everyone be so blind

You are so sweet and kind, you could never kill someone!

You were terrified

You were pale and sweating

You gripped tightly to you podium

Everyone was yelling back and forth about how it had to be you

You had such a solid alibi but no one would believe you

You looked to Shuichi for help

He had been rather calm during the whole trial but the helpless look on your face broke him

“Alright listen up! S/o can’t be the murder! And I have solid evidence to proof it!”

Everyone went silent

No one had ever seen Shuichi so angry

“Listen, S/O was with me when ryoma was killed, and even monokuma can back up that fact, but that’s not all!”

You let out a sigh of relief

“Even if they would have snuck out and killed him, then himiko would have definitely seen them, which she said she didn’t”

Himiko nodded in agreement

You gave Shuichi a smile and thanked him

After the trial you were shaken up as always, everyone was

You hugged him tightly and buried you head in his neck

He rubbed your back mumbled small “I love you’s” into your ear

He was so scared that he would lose you

He was scared that he would lose everyone

Gonta Gokuhara

This boy was TERRIFIED

He can lose his S/O!

“S/O WOULD NEVER KILL!”

Everyone looked at him with pity

The poor man was a wreck

He tried making arguments but they all came out as incoherent sobs

You took a deep breath and tried to defend yourself

Normally no one would believe you, but they wanted to give Gonta some hope

That’s when the realized that the case didn’t actually make any sense if you were the killer

Gonta was so relieved

After the trial he picked you up of the ground and held you tightly

“S/O GONTA WAS SO SCARED!”

It took a lot of cuddles to calm him down

Ryoma hoshi

When your name was mentioned, he smiled

This is his sick punishment wasn’t it

He let himself become close to someone as pure as you and you became just like him

He blamed himself

He looked at you with tears in his eyes

“I’m sorry S/O, this is my fault”

“What?! No I didn’t do it!”

He wanted to believe you so badly

But part of him was still convinced that you had killed someone and now you were going to die and it was all his fault

“ S/O! Isn’t funny how things turn out so awfuly in the end?!”

He was laughing and crying

You’ve never seen him like this

He was hysterical

It scared you too see your nomaly rather stoic boyfriend like this

“Ryoma please calm down! I didn’t do it!”

He didn’t

You looked around in a panic

Your eyes filled with tears

You were hyperventilating, the room felt like it was spinning

“Please, I-I’m not the murder, ple-please believe me”

Everyone stopped to look at you

Shuichi noted how distressed you were and decided to look things over some more leading to the discover that miu was the killer the whole time

After the trial you and ryoma didn’t speak much until he pulled you into his room

He broke down

“I’m sorry, I’m so sorry”

You fell to your knees and began sobbing into your hands

Neither of you were really ok after that

You can’t stop thinking about how he thought he had pushed you to murder

Did he really think that he was that bad

You two sat against the wall holding each other for a while, neither one wanting to let go

Kiibo

At first he believed them

When you were first accused he was shocked

All he could think was why

You were so nice, you were the only one who fully looked past the fact he was a robot and saw him only as himself

He was heartbroken

“S/O?.......”

“Kiibo it’s not true!”

“S/O why did you kill Angie!....”

You had been trying to stay calm and collected but now you broke down

Kiibo was trying to wrap his head around what was going on

He couldn’t figure out why you would do it

He didn’t think you would have any reason to do so

So why would you do it, it didn’t make any sense

“Wait!”

Everyone stopped and looked at him

“Why would S/O do it, they don’t have a motive, but korekiyo would!”

Soon after , everything fell into place

You both were extremely relieved

After the trial he started to avoid you

“Thank you so much for helping me out back there”

He didn’t respond

You tried to hug him but he backed away

“Kiibo, are you ok?”

“I’m a horrible boyfriend”

“What?! Where is this coming from?”

“I- i thought you killed someone!”

“ Ok i'll admit that it hurt when you accused me, but i don’t blame you for anything Kiibo!”

At this point you two were both sobbing

You hugged each other tightly, sobbing into each other shoulders

He just whispered “I’m sorry” and “love you” over and over again

You gladly accept his apology

Kaito Momota

He is MAD

How dare anyone think HIS S/O could ever kill anyone!

You were shocked

He watched you try to defend yourself but everyone just kept shutting your points down

It broke his heart to see this

He tried to defend you but his mind was too clouded by anger for him to make an actual argument

Eventually Shuichi realized that you couldn’t have been the killer

Kiato calmed down a bit but he was still snappy towards everyone but you during the trial

After the trial he was still on edge

You tried to calm him down but it seemed to just get more angry

“They could have killed everyone! Including you! And that killer would have just walked away from this place!”

He started to cry

You pulled him into a tight hug

He almost fell over but as soon as he regained his balance he hugged you tighter

“He kiato, please just calm down. I’m fine now, everything is fine”

He never really got over that trial but he’s just happy you’re ok

Rantaro Amami

Like Kiibo, he actually thought you were a murder

He was so distraught

He was going to lose you

He blamed no one but this killing game

He just looked down to the ground and let tears roll down his cheeks

“Wait? Rantaro you don’t actually think I killed someone right?”

he gave you a sad yet guilty look 

while the rest of the group discussed your motives, Rantoro stayed  looking at the ground

he couldn't look anyone in the eye

especially that god forsaken bear

he was just mad that this game had broken someone as sweet as you

you were struggling to defend yourself in the trail

no one really wanted to listen to what you had to say

“rantaro?!‘

“S/O?”

“rantaro i didn't do it please”

“I know, i'm sorry i don't want you to go but please just be honest! for me?”

“RANTARO SNAP OUT OF IT I'M NOT THE KILLER!”

he had never seen you snap like that

it scared him more than anything

but he knew you were serious and gave a second look at the case

luckily they were able to find the real killer and the trial ended

after the trial rantaro ran to you and hugged you from behind

he was still crying

he mumbled apologies into your shoulder in between sobs.

you accepted his apology and turned around to give him a proper hug

Korekiyo Shinguji

He upheld is calm nature the whole trial

Well almost the whole trial

When your name was brought up he was startled but he seemed ok

You tried to defend yourself

No one wanted to hear what you had to say

You looked at him to see if he could back you up

He gave a reassuring nod

He then simply tried to tell the group why you couldn’t be the killer

Emphasis on “tried”

He voice was shaky and quiet

no one believed him

Shuichi announced that he thinks it time to vote

Korekiyo PANICKED

“Wait!”

Everyone stopped and turned to him

“I-I’m the killer”

Everyone just stared at him confused

Well if you get out of here Alive you might beat up your boyfriend for pulling something like this

Although he did cause the group to take a second look at the case, saving everyone’s life

After the trial you grabbed his arm and pulled him aside

“Why would you do something like that we all could have died!”

To your surprise his eyes filled with tears

“I’m sorry S/O, I just couldn’t bare the thought of your death and I panicked!”

His voice was shaky and horse

It broke your heart to see him like this

You pulled your lanky boyfriend into a hug

He held tightly onto you, petting your hair with his bandaged hand

Kokichi ouma

You were argueing with everyone defending yourself

But no one would listen to a word you would say

Kokichi tried to defend you too but no one wanted to listen to him either

He looked defeated

You looked over to kokichi

He expression suddenly changed

He looked up and gave you a sly smile and winked

What on earth is your boyfriend up to

He instantly faked up some tears and sobs

“I guys you guys must be right”

He sobbed a bit before looked up at you

“How could you S/O!? I thought we were going to get out of here together?!”

You turned to him giving a “what on earth are you doing” look

You quickly turned around and stared blankly at everyone else hoping your boyfriend knew what he was doing

“I knew it was you from the very start S/O!”

What is he doing!?

“You and I were in your room with kiato and you left to go to the bathroom, that’s when you snuck off to kill Rantaro right?!”

Kiato nodded

“And then you came back at around 6:05 which is proven by this picture we took afterwards in which shows a clock reading 6:10, which would have given you enough time to commit the murder which was documented to have happened at 6:08!”

Kiato shot up with a relization

“Wait that doesn’t dosnt make sense!!”

Kokichi smirked

“Exactly, it took all that for you guys to actually listen!”

So that’s what he was doing

After the trial you gave him a big hug and thanked him

Although he won’t admit it, he was pretty terrified

2WAYMIRROR: Broken Girls

Ok so haven't posted in a while but I started Listening to Gabbie Hanna’s 2WAYMIRROR album and I just had to do a fic for each song cause I was struck by inspiration. Here is the first one, note they might all be one-shots so I think, I’m not sure yet. We will have to see. All the songs will be Adrinette angst because I just feel that way. Oh, by the way, I have not seen the episodes beyond Chameleon only bits and pieces from Tumblr so this will be Chamelon salt in a way but not fully. I know, later on, he does basically trade his soul to the devil for Marinette and that's sweet of him but remember I haven't seen the episodes so be gentle with me being misinformed beyond that of the first episode of Season 3 Episode 1. 

Adrien will be OOC and so will Marinette. 

Oh, personal opinion this fic will be crap but eh. Bring in the criticism. I will also post the other songs later cause after I finish doing the songs on the  2WAYMIRROR album I will be doing other songs so you might look forward to that.

Broken girls Butterflies Perfect day

Goodbye Medicate Pillowcase

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Broken Girls by Gabbie Hanna

Don't really care about your sweet talk

At the time, I really was keeping quiet since Adrien promised me we would be in this together. That it was gonna be him and me against the reign of Lila. It made me happy that he promised this. That he was going to be there for me.

I only wanna hear your dark thoughts baby

But then I started seeing the real him. On the occasion that I did try to out Liela Rossi and got grief for it, he just stood back and said nothing. He ignored the situation completely. And it wasn’t the only time either. Whenever the others would start calling her names, ruining her sketches, or just plain on bullying me, he did nothing and said nothing.

You really like the way I'm fucked up

And all you wanna do is come and save me

Adrien would always check on me afterward. After the class was done with me. The first time I thought it was sweet that he would make sure I was ok. But then, after a while, I wanted nothing more than for him to leave me alone. To continue ignoring me as he has been doing. He only wanted to be my knight in shining armor after the conflict. If he really was my knight he would have intervened during the conflicts.

But when I ask the same questions

You always gotta go and change the subject

With all these one-way conversations

You got me wondering about the things left unsaid

Each and every single time I ask him why he doesn’t help me he changes the subject. Each and every single time he also blames me for starting it. He always defines the bully and never the victim. He did it with Chloe, so of course, he did it with Lila, because that’s exactly who he is. Thinking people will change if you give them time, though that may be true, it doesn’t apply to everybody. I keep on wondering, every time I speak to him what he really thinks of me. Was he really my friend, were we really in this together?

You love 'em sick, dig up all the ugly shit

Then you offer up your remedy

I’m not the only victim in his line of fire apparently. Because there is also Kagami; beautiful, strong, skilled, Kagami. Turns out Adrien is more than he seems because apparently, he was using her to try and get over his other crush. Of course, Kagami didn’t realize this at first since, like him, she has been sheltered away from social interaction so she really didn’t notice until she and I became friends. We found ourselves becoming friends after crying out apologies and understanding that it was foolish to fight over a guy.

Your tightened lips never let your secrets slip

Your repressed memories aren't impressing me

I get that Adrien was sheltered, that he lost his mom, that his father ignores him, that his father controls him and his schedule, but that does NOT excuse his behavior. His actions are his own just like his thoughts are his own. He can’t use his past to defy his action beyond that of what is reasonable. I should have seen the red flags before letting it get this far.

You like broken girls

Because they make you feel put together

Broken girls, rip it open then you'll kiss it better

He always did like to be the hero, especially when the situations involved me. Now I know why, after all, I am his princess and him my knight.

Won't open up to me

Of course, he’s Chat Noir.

Want you to talk to me

Of course, I find out when he’s venting yet again about how Ladybug should stop pretending she doesn’t love him. And then I vent about Lila and the class.

I want to get to know you

Don't just listen to me baby

Of course, I had to fight back in my honor when he tells me to listen to Adrien. And of course, he doesn’t listen, and he accidentally said something all too familiar. “Hey as long as you and he know, it should be alright, and hey you have me now to so you should do what your friend said and leave it”

Broken girls, because they make you feel put together

I really wanted to scream. The guy I used to like was this mangy cat. Was this person I put my trust in. I really wanted to scream.

No, I'm not in the mood for small talk

I only wanna know your deepest secrets

Oh, come on, let me be your detox

I'll be your diary, I won't repeat it

So I was like, you know what fine, tell me everything, don’t hold back, vent, rant, and speak to me about your “mentally checked out” father, your “in denial of being in love with you” Ladybug, and your “being difficult” Marinette. I’ll listen but don’t think I’m going to sit this one out. I didn’t even tell him I knew who he was because it might make this situation more difficult than it should be.

You love 'em sick, dig up all the ugly shit

Then you offer up your remedy

Your tightened lips never let your secrets slip

Your repressed memories aren't impressing me

A small part of me does feel bad about his past, a very small part of me wants to care for him like she used to but honestly that ship is sailing ad won’t be coming back anytime soon. Then the next Akuma appears and Chat is being difficult again after I rejected him again.

You like broken girls

I’m tired of this. I warned him something bad would happen if he continued this way. He didn’t listen.

Because they make you feel put together

I am so, so, so tired of his tantrums, his harassment, and his “love” for me. I was so tired of Leila and my classmates. I was so tired of Adrien even after I found out his identity.

Broken girls, rip it open then you'll kiss it better

No more, because dearest kitty, you should know better than publicly denying to help since the last two times no one else saw. But this time they saw.

Won't open up to me

I didn’t find out about it from him

Want you to talk to me

I should have though, with how much he complaints to my civilian self. He visited me the night before after all but the tweet didn’t pick up till the next day.

I want to get to know you

Instead, I find out through twitter. Someone from the Culpa enterprises recorded him not wanting to fight until Ladybug confessed to loving him. Ladybug basically begging for his help. 

Paris wasn’t happy. 

Don't just listen to me baby

I warned him.

Broken girls, because they make you feel put together

He didn’t listen to this Broken girl.

You like them broken

You like them broken

You like them broken

You like them broken

He wanted Ladybug to do damage control by confessing he was in his right. He was not happy when I said no because he was in the wrong. He barely shows up for fights now.

You like broken girls

I became even more broken

Because they make you feel put together

He was happy to see me struggle with a smug face saying “I told you so”

Broken girls, rip it open then you'll kiss it better

When he did show up he again would “sacrifice” himself even if he didn’t need to. Just to end up struggling and fighting him again.

Won't open up to me

Want you to talk to me

I want to get to know you

Don't just listen to me baby

Broken girls, because they make you feel put together

Paris had my back though.

You love 'em sick, dig up all the ugly shit

Master Fu had my back.

Broken girls

I may have been broken 

You love 'em sick, dig up all the ugly shit

But I would not go down without a fight

Broken girls

So when a new Chat Noir showed up

You love 'em sick, dig up all the ugly shit

I became a little less broken

Broken girls

A little less stressed 

You like broken girls

I welcomed this new Chat Noir

Because they make you feel put together

“Hi I’m Ladybug”

“Hi, I guess I’m the new Chat noir”

“What will your name be?”

“Chat de Nuit” 

“Nice to meet you Chat de Nuit”

“I know I just met you but are you ok?”

“yes, why wouldn’t I be?”

“Well, your eyes seem sad”

“You don’t have to worry about that”

I’m just a broken girl

Small Salvation (Fanfic)

Oh boy, what haven’t I done in a long while? Let’s check the list...oh! Haven’t posted a Tumblr one-shot fanfic in ages! Let’s go do that, then!

Anyway, I didn’t quite have the time to gather all of my notes, recover from flight, and write up a strong, worthwhile chapter, so I scrounged this up between last night and today. A brand new Pokémon fanfic tie-in!

It’s a cute one-shot story for the first time that Blastoise and Carracosta met! Which is actually nothing that I thought about on vacation, but hit me with a blitz of inspiration this weekend.

So, here we are! Meet cute! Enjoy.

...

Under the cloudy morning sky, a blue turtle wandered into a ravaged town along the riverside. He frowned at the damages, as he observed the broken buildings. A statue of the penguin emperor was shattered, ice sculptures were smashed into shards, archways were caved in, and rubble lined the roads.

 Drumming on the trowels and brushes lined on his belt, the turtle made his way to the settlement’s office, but paused as he glanced at a home not far from it. He turned back and made his way into the office.

 An hour passed as he explored, spotting dust covered books and artifacts left in tact from the damage. He plucked them out and stored them in bags, rubbing his head as he went.

 “Maybe I’m going to need a wagon or something…”

 “Hey! Who’s there?!”

 Jolting, the turtle flailed and fumbled around, bumping a desk missing a leg. He wobbled, managing to regain his balance, and twisted around to the window. Or, where the window should have been, from the bashed open hole in the wall.

 Another turtle hurried over to the opening, though he seemed to wear a mask, or his face was covered oddly. This turtle wore armor, and held a spear in his flipper as he glared in on the other, who grumbled and glowered right back.

 “What are you doing here? Who are you?”

 “My name is Blastoise,” snapped the first, “and I’m here to research the desecration of Overton.”

 “On whose orders?”

 “The chain goes a bit, but I have allowance from his Imperial Highness.”

 “Absurd.” The second turtle scoffed. “I would’ve been informed of it.”

 Snatching a paper from his satchel, Blastoise stormed over to the turtle in the window, and unraveled it, shoving it in his intruder’s face. Backing a bit as he took the paper, the masked turtle scanned it over, tilting his head as lowered his eyes.

 “That’s from the Emperor’s palace,” he confirmed. “But why didn’t they tell me of it?”

 “You must not be very high on the pecking order,” mocked Blastoise, taking back his ordinance. “It’s ok, we all come back to earth at some point.”

 “Bah.”

 “Look, you’re a town guard, right?” Blastoise folded his arms. “I think I should be the one asking you what you’re doing here.” He lowered his eyes, peeking back out at the ruins. “You’re definitely not from here…”

 “They sent me over to keep the settlement from falling into further disarray,” explained the turtle guard. “I’m on rotation with a few others from the neighboring towns.”

 “Ah, well then you’re going to make everything difficult,” complained Blastoise. “I need to search this village for important documents and objects, in order to preserve them.”

 “Huh?”

 “Archaeology.”

 “Oh.” The other turtle rubbed behind his head. “Don’t they usually wait a few years for that kind of, uh, research?”

 “Given how destroyed this place is, I don’t think they’re inclined to wait.” Blastoise glanced behind him at a broken cabinet. “They’re likely looking to salvage as much as possible.”

 “Guess you’re delicate enough going through it all.”

 “Delicate?” Blastoise gestured to himself, “Does any part of this look delicate to you?”

 “Uh…not…quite?”

 “Excuse me?”

 “Ah, not at all!”

 “…You don’t get out much, do you?”

 “Not enough,” admitted the guard. “Parents sheltered me a lot growing up.”

 “And yet you became a guard?”

 “Hey, not everything lines up like you expect,” grumbled the turtle. “Didn’t your work ever teach you that?”

 “Sometimes.” Blastoise folded his arms. “Anyway, are you satisfied? I’ve got work to do.”

 “Hold on!” The turtle tapped his lance on the wall. “This place could be dangerous, and I need to make sure nothing happens.”

 “…Is that you telling me that you’re protecting me?”

 “What?!” The masked turtle blushed. “No! I mean, yes! But that…”

 “Wow.” Blastoise smirked. “From sour to sweet.”

 “Quit it! I’m also making sure you don’t cause more trouble!” He scowled. “Even if the Emperor requested your help, I’m stationed here. So, I’ll be monitoring you.”

 “Sounds like you’re excusing being a creep,” teased Blastoise.

 “I am not!”

 “Relax, just come in here already.” Blastoise picked a brush out. “I need to get back to work. Today’s my only day here.”

 “Well, you’d better get to it.”

 “Beg pardon?”

 “Ah…I, uh, I’ll be in there, just a moment.”

 He hurried around from the window while Blastoise shook his head, and ambled to the nearest broken shelf. As he gazed down to the floor, he spotted another couple of books, and bent over to store them in bags.

 Lifting his head and checking behind him, he glowered at the turtle guard, who winced and clung to his spear.

 “Um, sorry, I, uh, I didn’t…mean to stare…”

 Standing up from the floor, Blastoise blinked and focused down on the turtle guard. Noticing it as well, the guard straightened up.

 “…Huh.” Blastoise smirked. “You’re shorter than I realized.”

 “Excuse you, I am not short!”

 “Definitely are.”

 “Am not!”

 “Ok, if you insist, short stack.”

 “Grr!”

 “You know,” suggested Blastoise, “you could easily get around that by giving me your name.”

 “Wha…?” The turtle blinked. “But I did…?”

 “Not.” Blastoise lowered his eyes and tapped his foot. “You did not.”

 “Well, that’s rude of me. Sorry.” He slouched and rubbed his head, and then perked back up. “Anyway, name’s Carracosta!”

 “Such a pleasure to meet you,” mocked Blastoise. He gathered his findings and pushed a broken chair aside. “Now how about you help me move things along?” Blastoise strode across the room, lifting an eyebrow at Carracosta. “Unless you’d rather just rub your spear while watching.”

 “No, I can help.” Carracosta took two steps after Blastoise, but then paused. “Wait a minute.” He blushed and stiffened. “Hey!”

 “Took you long enough.” Blastoise smirked. “Come on.”

 “Maybe I should just watch you,” argued Carracosta. “After all, if you bend—”

 “Oh, fine, I’m sorry.” He rolled his eyes. “I may as well be the bigger turtle…”

 “That’s ok, you’re forgive…” Carracosta blinked, and then fumed. “Quit it with the potshots!”

 “You make it too fun.” Blastoise swept at the desk before him. “On second thought, just stay there. I can laugh while I work.”

 “Absolutely not!” He stormed over and crouched down with Blastoise. “Tell me what’s next.”

 Chuckling, Blastoise handed Carracosta some tools, as they picked at the desk. They cleared debris around the room, tugging out a few different findings. And after they finished with the town office, they wandered to the next building, starting on the research there, excavating in the dirt below a crushed cathedral, and sorting jewels from a shop.

 “Geez, I can see why the Emperor put you on this,” piped up Carracosta, setting down a sapphire for Blastoise’s collection. “It’s still not even nightfall, and you’ve covered plenty of spots.”

 “Honestly, that’s because you’ve helped,” admitted Blastoise.

 “Yeah, but you directed me.” Carracosta smiled. “You’re really talented!”

 “Thanks, but…” Blastoise sighed. “The other reason is that I used to live here, a long time ago.”

 “Wait, really?”

 “Yes.” He spun back and looked at the village. “So much has changed here though, so it’s…harder to navigate than I remembered…”

 “Still sounds like you’ve got impressive skills,” complimented Carracosta.

 “Ha, maybe.” Blastoise shrugged. “I feel like there’s other things that I want to do with my life, though.”

 “Like what?” He snorted. “Settle down and have kids?”

 “Sounds nice.” Smirking, Blastoise poked at Carracosta’s arm. “Why? You did that already? Or are you offering?”

 “Nope, I haven’t, don’t really…wait, what?” Carracosta blinked. “Are you asking—?”

 “Hey, come on,” urged Blastoise, turning away to hide his red cheeks. “This home back by the town office caught my eye. Let’s go check it out.”

 “But…”

 Hesitating as he watched the tortoise double back, Carracosta grumbled and chased after him. They entered the home, as the door hinges snapped from the slightest push. Carracosta rubbed his head, while Blastoise studied the doorway and hall arches.

 “That thing nearly broke right off.” He turned to Blastoise. “What is it?”

 “It’s kind of roomy here…” Blastoise scratched his ear. “I’ve had to squeeze in to other homes. But, this one seems like it accommodates my size.”

 “Ha, so you’re too big, huh?” Carracosta grinned as Blastoise scowled at him, and then bopped his shell. “Ouch! What? You can’t take what you dish out?”

 “Oh, I can.” Blastoise folded his arms, checking the caved in kitchen. “You’re just having too much fun.”

 “Then that’s your fault.” Carracosta smirked again. “Quit treating to me to a good time.”

 “Why, so you can laugh and…?” He blinked and turned back to the guard. “Wait, you’re enjoying all of this?”

 “Kind of, yeah.” Carracosta shrugged. “It’s a different experience, at least, and that makes it interesting.”

 “Maybe I did bump you too hard…”

 “This is your work!” He tilted his head. “Don’t you enjoy it?”

 “Of course, but um…” Blastoise scratched his head. “No one else usually does.”

 “Co-workers?”

 “No, I don’t usually work with groups.” He picked at his shell. “I meant friends, or rather, other folks that have joined me previously.” Blastoise tugged at his arm, staring away at a heavy pot smashed into the cabinet on the wall. “Not that it happens all that often or anything…”

 “Really?” Carracosta held his hips. “But you’re good at it. And you’re fun to be around.”

 “You don’t need to pity me,” mumbled Blastoise.

 “It’s not pity, as you’re pretty entertaining,” insisted Carracosta. “Bit of a tease, but if you take away some of the mocking, I’m happy to have spent the day with you.”

 “Only some?” Blastoise smirked at Carracosta, but then leaned back. “Wait, did you call me a tease?”

 “Oh look, stairs! Let’s go wander upstairs before this whole place crumbles!”

 “The beams should support—”

 “Up we go!”

 Both blushed as they made their way through the shredded family room, and climbed the staircase. The railing was ripped apart in several spots, as they used the wall to guide themselves up.

 Blastoise wandered behind Carracosta, touching at the openings, still puzzled about their size. He bumped into the guard and stumbled back.

 “Everything ok?” Blastoise tapped at Carracosta’s shoulder. “Unless that’s how you get a—”

 “Hold on.” Carracosta paled, and pulled his spear back out. “Don’t move.”

 “Why?” Blastoise raised an eyebrow. “Are you ok, did I…?”

 His mouth hung open, as Blastoise gazed past Carracosta, spotting blood that stained the bedroom before them. Lifting his spear, Carracosta stepped in, poking at the blankets on the bed.

 Nothing budged, and he lifted them, only to find the mattress beneath. He scanned the room, noting its tarnished state with the broken dressers and mirror, but dropped his shoulders, as he looked closer.

 “It’s all dried out,” confirmed Carracosta. “It’s like that third house we went to.”

 “Why does this one have so much more though?”

 “Don’t know.” He spun back to Blastoise. “Did they mention what exactly happened here?”

 “All I was told was that the village had an incident,” murmured Blastoise. “This is supposed to be a quiet town. What could have possibly happened…?”

 “Hm.” Carracosta lifted his spear and shuffled back to Blastoise in the hall. “We only saw two houses with blood, so…maybe an affair gone terribly wrong?”

 “Seriously?”

 “It’s possible!”

 “What about the rest of the town?”

 “Uh…” Carracosta rubbed his arm. “Ok, maybe I’m thinking too small.”

 “Actually, that didn’t even cross my mind, but thinking of just the two houses with that scope, you never know,” determined Blastoise. “Unlikely based on everywhere else, but it wasn’t half bad of a guess based on the two homes.”

 “Aw, did it hurt for you to compliment me like that?”

 “Not at all.” Blastoise smiled. “And, ah, thank you, for protecting me.”

 “Oh! You’re welcome.” Carracosta glanced at a dropped painting as he blushed. “Just part of my job, nothing special.”

 “Here I thought you were starting to like me.”

 “But I already do?”

 “Wow, really?” Blastoise’s ears twitched and he straightened up. “Hang on, what was that?”

 “What was what?”

 “Something cracked.”

 “…Besides the whole house?”

 “No, in this next room.” He tugged Carracosta’s free arm. “Come on, right over here.”

 “Wait, wait! Get behind me!”

 Together, they pushed on the door stuck in the arch, failing to get it to budge. Nodding to one another, they pulled back and tackled forward, knocking the door away and dropping in.

 Pushing up from the ground, Carracosta helped Blastoise up, and they gazed inside of the room. A crib waited inside, its front buried under the broken door. A cracking egg sat inside of the crib, snapping open as the turtles gawked at it.

 “Is that an Egg?” Carracosta shook his head and blinked. “A baby was here this whole time?!”

 “Good gods, they’re coming out now.”

 Blue arms pushed from the egg’s shell, and a tiny turtle forced his way out of it, falling out and onto the mattress. He whimpered as he looked around his crib, shuddering as he searched the room.

 “Oh no…he…”

 “Hush!”

 Hearing them, the baby turned to the turtle pair with him. Blinking, he smiled and flailed around, as the pair stared at the newborn.

 “Oh my gods…” Blastoise fixated on the child. “He’s…alive. He looks fine, and he’s—”

 “Adorable!” Carracosta gently clapped and scooted closer. “Oh, look at him, Blastoise! He’s such a cutie!” He grinned and turned back to his partner. “And he’s like you!”

 “He’s alone,” uttered Blastoise.

 Carracosta’s broad beam faded, and he turned back to the smiling child. He slumped down as the baby tossed and turned, reaching out as he waved.

 “…What do we do…?”

 “…I’ll take him.”

 “What?” Carracosta spiraled back. “How?”

 “There’s…other work that I can do, doesn’t need to be field work.”

 “But—”

 “It can’t be you,” decided Blastoise. “You’ve got enough to juggle as a guard, and even more so if you get promoted to the Emperor’s knights.” He smirked as Carracosta’s mouth opened. “Town guards tend to get promoted to help fill in the ranks for the Empire, right?”

 “Well, yes, but…”

 “I can’t leave him, Carracosta.” Blastoise ambled over and leaned over the baby. “Not after seeing all of this, not knowing…” He shook his head. “This was my home, ages ago. It should fall to me to keep this place alive.”

 “Nonsense, don’t be a martyr over it!”

 “Even if I’m not, I won’t leave him,” reiterated Blastoise. “I can’t.”

 The baby reached up as Blastoise scooped him up. He smiled at the tiny turtle, gently cradling him as he made his way from the room. Carracosta pushed back up, and fixated on Blastoise and the baby as they stopped by the doorway. He turned back to the turtle guard, and tilted his head.

 “What?”

 “Nothing, I…” Carracosta smiled. “That’s noble and…really sweet of you.”

 “Ha, well…” Blastoise blushed and brought the baby closer. “Ah, I’m about to be very not-sweet, and ask you to help gather everything we found to leave with.”

 “Uh…that’s a lot,” realized Carracosta.

 “If you need—”

 “No, no, you leave it to me!” He pounded his chest and grinned. “I’ll get you all set to go, quick and easy!”

 “Are you sure?”

 “Absolutely!”

 Exiting the shambled home, Carracosta hurried around to gather his and Blastoise’s findings. He gathered everything together and tied it all up, and followed Blastoise from the lost settlement of Overton.

 They approached the nearby river and a boat made its way down. Blastoise rocked the baby as he reached for his supplies, but Carracosta batted him away, and lifted it back up himself. He placed it onboard, as Blastoise climbed on.

 “Thank you for all of your help.” Blastoise smiled to Carracosta. “It was a pleasure meeting you.”

 “Likewise! And you take care of that kiddo, huh?”

 Approaching the baby, Carracosta waved his flipper as the tiny turtle giggled and grabbed for him, barely able to reach up. The older turtles laughed at the child, and the guard stepped back, smiling as the boat began to push away from its dock.

 “Good luck, I hope you reach knighthood,” called Blastoise, and he waved along with the baby. “I think you’ll do great.”

 “Ha, I sure hope so. And I wish you two well too!”

 “Thank you, Carracosta!”

 They waved until they were out of each other’s sights. Carracosta sighed and gazed at the sunset, his smile fading.

 “…Ah crap.” He slouched. “Didn’t even ask him where he’s from…”

 Groaning, the turtle guard hung his head and arms, wandering away from the riverside. He exhaled and dragged himself along, taking three minutes before he perked back up, and made his way back to the neighboring town he was stationed at.

 A couple of months later, Carracosta grumbled as he marched through the imperial city, wearing new armor and the colors of the Empire. He sulked as he glanced up at the palace in the distance, and went back to wandering through the city square.

 “Figures I’d end up knighted for the empire that struggles to keep any of them safe,” he muttered. “Should’ve taken up another job…”

 He fumbled back as a small mouse and duck hurried past him, laughing as the children played together. A swan bumped past him and knocked him over, as he flopped back onto his shell.

 Grumbling, Carracosta wobbled and spun himself around, glaring at the children and their guardian as they raced off. His expression softened as their laughter rang out from the city streets, and he lowered his head as he pushed back up from the ground.

 “Should’ve gotten that damned address,” he muttered, as he had four days ago, and two before that. “Gods, I could’ve at least been able to mail him…”

 He wandered back through his post of the city, and passed by a market stall. He glanced at the fruits gathered from the southern kingdom, and glumly picked up a bright apple from the basket.

 “Excuse me!” Carracosta jolted up at the voice, and spun back, spotting a blue tortoise, cradling a tiny turtle and shifting back to the vendor. “Sorry, could I just get one more apple? My son seems like he loves these.” The chinchilla smiled and placed her coins past her scarf, giving the extra apple away. “No charge? Are you sure?” She nodded and the turtle beamed. “Thank you very much!”

 “No way…”

 Blastoise spun away, giving Squirtle the apple to hold. Carracosta tossed his back and chased after the pair, hurrying up as Blastoise’s ears twitched.

 “Look, I offered…” Blastoise blinked as Carracosta gawked at him. “…Carracosta?”

 “Blastoise! It is you!”

 “Of course.” He smirked. “Should’ve known I’d run into you here eventually.” He smirked at him. “You’re the only knight that would scramble after me like that.”

 “Hey!” Carracosta straightened up and folded his arms. “That’s not a great greeting after it’s been so long!”

 “It’s been a few months.”

 “I didn’t think it’d be ever!” Carracosta dropped his arms. “Meant to ask you for your address or something to mail you, but that completely slipped my mind!”

 “Ha, so it did.” Blastoise smirked as he shifted his baby around. “Should’ve figured that one out too; you didn’t even remember your name with your introduction.”

 “Come off it,” groaned Carracosta. “What brings you here?”

 “Brings me?” Blastoise chuckled. “I live here now. This is where they’ve got me after I requested to stop field excavations.”

 “Wait.” Carracosta blinked and jerked back. “You…you live here now, in the city? We live in the same place?!”

 “Not quite, unless they’ve kicked the knights out of the palace.”

 “Where do you live?!” Carracosta bounced up. “Is it near here? Would I be able to visit? I’m sure I can clear time at some point to see you!” He blushed and rubbed his arm over his face. “You as in both of you. You and the baby, that is. Um…yeah!”

 “Well, well.” Blastoise blushed and grinned. “I don’t think anyone’s ever missed me that much.” He bumped the baby up a little more. “You must really want to see my kid, huh?”

 “Definitely, and his papa’s the extra perk!”

 “You’re not even being subtle,” teased Blastoise. He blushed as he gazed around the city square’s citizens. “I think at least five of them are staring.”

 “So let them stare!”

 Carracosta reached over and played with the baby, who giggled and reached up at him. Blastoise smiled as he held tiny turtle out to Carracosta, and they laughed as they batted at one another.

 “What’s his name?”

 “Squirtle, of course.”

 “He’s gotten even cuter! Ha!”

 The little one yawned and Blastoise brought him back in, while Carracosta sighed and stared back up to him.

 “So? Would you show me where you live?”

 “Don’t you have a patrol to keep up with?” Blastoise winked. “No slacking off, not for his sake.”

 “How about yours?”

 “Especially not for mine.” Blastoise looked up the street. “Which way are you going?”

 “Eastern bound today.”

 “Huh.” Blastoise rubbed his chin. “Well, that’s…convenient.”

 “Do you live that way?!”

 “Surprisingly for you, yes.” Blastoise smirked. “So, I guess you can escort my son and I home.” He lowered his eyes. “Just keep a sharp eye out. Our people need you too.”

 “Please. I’d defend this city with my life!” Carracosta puffed his chest out. “That’s my duty, after all.”

 “Right, right, we’re a big shot knight now, huh?” Blastoise stuck his tongue out. “You’re always going to be my short stack, though.”

 “Oh, not that again…” Carracosta slouched but popped back up, cheeks red. “Wait, your short stack?”

 “Anyway, your route is this way, right? Come on, you’ve been dawdling,” teased Blastoise, hiding his face as he hurried along.

 “But you just—”

 “Don’t make me tell the Emperor you’re shirking on your work!”

 With a broad beam, Carracosta chased after Blastoise and the baby Squirtle, as they made their way through the city streets.

And wasn’t that just precious? It’s so nice that they won’t go through any kinds of emotional trauma years later or anything!

But yeah, I had written up some small ideas for my ongoing works while away, still have to transfer them to my main computer, and yet this is what ended up getting stuck in my head after all that. I don’t get it, but I liked it.

It was really fun, because Blastoise and Carracosta are one of my oldest couples for my ongoing Pokemon fanfic, so it’s nice to visit their origins, and Squirtle’s too! It’s funny, because they’re more recent going chronologically, but they were one of the first that I came up with conceptually.

Didn’t really take the time to research archaeology, so it’s probably more of an “artistic interpretation” for it. But it works out for Blastoise, and gives a passable excuse for him and Carracosta to meet up.

They weren’t quite supposed to jump right into romance, but I decided to have them flirt a bit in this little story, since...I’m a trash shipper. Come on, you guys know this about me by now.

Anyway, not much else to go over, just some cute fluff to help get me back into the swing of things. I’ve got a lot of irl crap to get back to, but this was a nice way to relax before diving back in.

Hope you enjoyed this little bit! It’ll eventually find its way to the Scattered Petals collection on FFN, and I still need to transfer that to AO3 next. Projects for another day, though.

Thank you for reading!

Pacifist Herny AU Fanfic (prequel to Aftermatch AU)

I made this awhile back on Quotev as a prequel to my Pacifist Henry Aftermatch AU (I know, I'm lazy with names) Sometime after chapter 5 came out and since Tumblr been on a "mercy route of batim" spree lately I decided to post it on some of my other social medias. Hope you like it. Warning, there may be some Grammer errors cause my phone was a jerk when I frist wrote this and I'm tried my best to fix them.

This is the Backstory to the au of my my @asktheinkandsteinfamily blog. Please check it out.

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

Fearing for his life, sweat on his face and hair blinding part of his eyes, Henry place "The End" tape into the projector player on the throne. He turned back to see the ink demon reaching it's giant claw to garb him, only to turn and growl and scream at "The End" playing on the screen. Soon it was evaporating as a bright golden light of what Herny wish was the sun filled the room. And before he knew it, he was back in the entrance of the studio again, as if none of that had ever happened, or in this case,  has yet to happen.

He used the looking glass to see the, to his now broken mind, uncountable number of tallies he knew were left by him. He tried going back out the door, that lead to his reality. Nothing. He garbed one of the nearby small glowing flouting balls of what he could only ever amuse was white-ish yellowish ink and made another tally in the wall, and looking at it all triggered a memory.

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

Herny, if he was being honest with himself, wasn't fully pleased when he got the letter form Joey. He hated recalling how Joey made him and others do all the work and claim it all as his own.  But,  knowing how times can change, and people can,  he decided to go.  Maybe Joey wanted to ask Herny for forgiveness of his mistakes. So he told his wife and daughter goodbye and that he be home that night, and if something happens that delays him,  he'll send a letter to let them know he was OK. 

When he had walked into the apartment, the first thing that caught his eye was the post bored flooding with what seemed like overdue bills notice on it, along with two letters form employees Herny remember working with, one of them seemingly married to another worker. One look at the electric bill for the house and Herny couldn't belive how high it was. "Joey must have Someone cross their lines with his so he have to pay for all the power their wasting" Herny thought. He then heard whistling and the sound of someone washing dishes form the next room. After a deep breath, he walked in, and was immediately met by the sight of a now much older Joey, wheelchair to the side of the little Table, as soon as he looked at him Joey spoke up.

"Herny?" Joey ask, back still turn to the person he was speaking too.  "So soon? I didn't expect you for another hour yet, now you're just trying to impress me "

For some reason,  the fact that Joey's voice was so different then he remembered shocked Herny, as his own voice hasn't changed that much form when he worked at the studio.  But he shook it off, staying silent to an old friend you haven't seen in 30 years would be very rude.

"Hey Joey" Henry said with a smile,  even due Joey's back was still turned. "It's good to see you after all these years. Due I do have to a-" 

"I know, I know" Joey cut him off, placing another dish on the clean dish pile. "You have questions.You always do." He turned to the side slightly. "The only important question is... Who are we Henry? "

"Huh? " Herny said as he moved closer to the table, his head tilting to the side. "What do you mean by that Joey?"  he asked. Joey then looked straight out the window on front of the stink.

"Well.... I thought I  knew who I was, but.... The succes starved me..." Joey claimed, earning a sad look form Herny. "Nothing left but lines on a page..."

Herny looked to the side. He heard that Joey Drew Studios had to shut down due to financial problems and because of "The next Big Thing ". It was a shame,  since he remember sending Joey a picture of the Bendy Cartoon's main characters with a sighed congratulations note when they were one of the most popular shows of the time.

Due he can't say he couldn't seen it happening at some point. Karma was gonna come some time.  He not only took credit for other peoples work and claimed it has his own, but he stole Bendy form Herny. He was his original creator, but by the time Herny realize Joey stole him,  since he had to stay home because of illness at the time, it was to late to do anything or prove it was his creation. That's why he keeped the first ever picture of Bendy ever on his desk for the rest of the time working at the studio, along with Joey's "rejection" note to remind him it was to late to do anything about it. He sighed and looked back at Joey, as said man raise his arms slightly up as he began to speak. 

"In the end, we followed two different roads of our own making. You... A lovely family " he said, which spook Herny slightly, not being well known excluding form family and friends, not understanding how Joey knew of his small family. "Me...... A crooked Empire, and my road burned...I let our creations...become my life."

Herny didn't exactly know what he meant by "Crooked Empire". Sure what Joey did while he worked at the studio and may have continue doing after he left was bad,  but he wouldn't exactly call it a "Crooked Empire". He Shrugged it off however, understanding it might just be how Joey felt about what he did looking back on the past. "I'm... .Sorry to here that Joey." he said.  Joey was silent for a moment.

"The truth is,  you're always so good at pushing, old friend" Joey said,  finely turning to face Herny, coming to the Table. "Pushing me to do the right thing." Then his tone change form clam, but saddest tone, to a bit of a more.... Slightly Sinister sounding tone. "You should have  pushed a little harder...." 

That sent chills down Herny's spine, due he didn't show it.  He let his blue eyes looked to the side slightly, slight shame shown in them as Joey land down slightly onto the table. "Maybe he's right...maybe I should have push harder or stay a bit longer to get him on the right path...." Herny thought as he looked back at Joey.

"Herny." Joey said,  breaking the silence. "Come visit the old workshop......there's something I need to show you" He then estures towards the door that seem to be leading to a wall, as Henry thought form the look of the building outside that would be where the building end.  

Herny opened the door and stepped back in shock, eyes widened. On the other side of the door was the entrance way to what appeared to be the studio, but it looked slightly more cartoonish then reality.  He also noticed some kind of slightly glitching, very transparent and almost paper thin, wall in the middle of the door, that seem to be separating both reality's from fuseing together. "Joey, what the-"

"I'll tell Linda and Luna that you never made it, but I'm sure you would have done everything in your power to get back to them."

"Joey what are you sayi-!?" Was all that he had time to say. And then he was pushed in and the door closed and locked itself, traping him.

Herny Panicked and try banging on the door, screaming for Joey to let him out. He wish this was some kind if sick dream or nightmare, but the pain starting to appear in his hands was proving him otherwise. After 3 minutes he garbed a rusty axe he found hidden nearby and tried to break through the door using it. It only got a small hole made before the end broke off,  falling and smashing into smaller pieces on the ground. To Henry's horror, the damage that would have went all the way through only made it half way through the wood, stoping at that froce fild form earlier. Then Henry noticed something written on the wood to the side if the door. It was really small and he had to get as close as he could to it and slightly squint his eyes to make it out.

"When All are not scarred, No Inky Blood marks a "Final Death", and truth of the true Creator is revealed, all by the Perfect Bendy in human skin. Only then can the one with "no soul" break everyone free form the ink of repeating time and again see the sun,  even due ink might forever filled their body's and souls." it read.

Herny was just more confused. What did that mean.  He rolled his eyes and looked around.  He realized Joey may just be trying to scare him and has the door lock, waiting for night to fall or he completes a small task before he let's him out, as some kind of sick joke.  Herny sighed. "Well Alright then Joey......Since I'm here..... Let's see if we can find what you wanted me to see."

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

Herny collapsed to the ground, tears in his eyes as he lead against the wall. How could he have fallen for Joey's trick!? What did Joey even want?! He just wanted to be free!  He just wanted to see Linda and Luna again! He missed them so much.....he just.... Wished he could have gone back to when he first got the letter, or first walked into his apartment, or anytime before he walked into that kitchen and just go home! 

After a couple minutes he allowed himself to clam down. He had to remember that he wasn't the only one trapped in here. Everyone he used to work with and even some who he didn't were trapped in here too. But.... His situation was different. They couldn't remember any of the past loops. He could, at times. Sometimes he had the seeing tool with him with the reset,  other times it disappears and he has to get it form Allison near the end of that loop. Sometimes he remembers bits and pieces of past loops, other times he completely forgot. This time was something that only happen very few times before.  He knew and remember everything that happened in the last loop, and even some memories of him writing some messages to himself in the "future". He just,  wanted to go home. He wonder what he did wrong? What he must always be doing wrong? He recalled all he could about the past loops, trying to figure out what he must always be doing wrong. 

Then something hit him. In every loop, he always attacked those he knew by now were once human like him. Yikes, one time he just went full crazy and attack everyone as soon as he saw them, not of fear, but just of pure Annoying and anger due to these endless loops. Yeah, things didn't end to well for him. He still could swear his vision was slightly tainted with his own blood when he popped "The end" into the film player. That's when an Idea came too Henry's mind. "What if I don't hurt anyone at all this time... "

He chuckled softly. It was a pretty stupid idea. Not only would that just be asking for death, but that would mean not letting anyone else get hurt by anyone else. Yeah,  like he be able to stop Tom form taking an axe to Sammy's head. Then again,  It might just be wroth a shot. He like too have Brois a little longer in a loop. He sighed, meantly asking himself why he continued to call him Brois when he knew by now that it was really a memory lost, now near silent Wally.

That question in his mind decided it.  He was, just for a change,  going to try it. He didn't want to treat these poor lost souls like Monsters or just people he pretend he didn't knew any longer. He was going to try and set everyone free, and hopefully get them to remember themselves more while at it.

He got up and went to complete what he learn to call "Chapter 1" Of this endless loop in time. But hopefully now, it wouldn't be endless for long. After 15 minutes, he felled through the floor after he turned on the ink machine and ran form bendy. After he had his 3 or 4 flashbacks he lead against the wall as he was knocked out, ready to start "Chapter 2".

When he woke up, he garbed his axe, chopped down the wooded broads, and went on forward. Soon he was walking through the ink when he saw Sammy walking by with a cutout of Bendy. He quickly recalled Sammy's "Final death" and how he knew he may be helpless too stop it.  Agein the Question went through his mind. "Will I really be Able to Save them all? Or am I just living on false hope?"

Soon he got to where the first people he fought were.  This was it, The moment that would prove if their was the slightest chance this could work. After he turned on the light and and turn back into the room of the music department, the searchers appeard. He could already see them coming to him,  he had to act fast. He quickly drop the axe behind him,  silently praying it didn't fall down the stairs into the ink. This caused the Searchers too stop, the closest one to him tilting it's head to the side slightly.

"H-Hey guys,  I dunno if some of you worked with me When I worked here or not, but it's Me,  Henry. H-Henry Stein? " 

They just seemed to look at him,  confused. Probably didn't understand a word he said, or just didn't know who the man was . Or maybe they were just confused on what he was,  if they didn't have any memories of being human at all. However, they did seem to manage to understand that Henry meant them no harm due. But Henry couldn't be sure. He sighed and looked behind him to grab the axe, but then he faces the searchers.

"How about I make all you a small deal? I won't hurt, or let anyone hurt any of you while I'm around" he said,  picking the axe back up.  "If you don't try to hurt or kill me. Deal?"

The front searcher looked back at the others for a few seconds, then faced Henry and...... Nodded.....then they disappeared. Herny just stood in disbelief for a moment.  Did that really just happened? Was it always that easy? He felt the Guilt climbed up and dig into his back. Did he really hurt them again and again for no reason? He knew the first few times, and all the times he completely forgot the loop and didn't have the looking glass, it was just fight or flight. But..... He shook off the feeling. Feel guilty later,  get going now.

He continued on. After exiting Sammy's sanctuary he saw the man,  well... Former man,  himself starting down at him. Herny looked up with a slight smile. "Hey Sammy, I know your most likely not going to listen to me, I tried reasoning with you for a whole hour once before and at the end you still try to...you know. " Henry said,  not fully sure how to explain it. "I just want to let you know now that, unless you come to reason before you call for bendy to take your "Sheep", you and me are going to meet again where some of the lost ones and searchers live. And what happens if you try to cut off my head.... The Brois with a robot arm puts in axe in yours first. Just some food for thought.  So maybe when we both meet up there inst-woah!" He had lost track of his steps and now the searchers jumpscared him, causing him to fall backwards, just nearly missing his axe.

Gaining an idea as he saw the searchers coming closer, He quickly chuckled, getting up. "Good one guys, you really got me there, but give me a bit of a warning next time." Then he grabbed his axe and speed-walk out of the room, leaving some slightly confused searchers and hopefully a second thinking Sammy Behind.

Soon he got to where Jack's fate would have ended if he did want he did in past loops. But on the bright side, he should be easier to convince, or get him to leave him be. He neverd attacked Herny, he just had the vale Herny needed to move on, and would hide in the ink whenever Herny got closed. This always forced Henry to crush him under a box. But Henry wasn't even going to raise the box this time. He walked up to Jack slowly, not even to try and hide his presence, knowing it would just do him no good. He stopped at least two feet before Jack would go back into the ink. 

"Hey Jack,  sorry for bugging you, but I really need that vale." Herny said.  Jack just looked at him like the other searchers, and slightly tighted his hold on the vale. "It's me, Henry,  remember? We used to work together." Still that confused look.

Herny sighed, trying to think of what he could do to help Jack either remember him or at least trust him enough to let him have the vale. He thought about the audio recording form earlier and meantly facepalm himself for not grabing it while he could. Then he remembered what Jack had said about Sammy's song and why he often came down here before he was turned into a searcher. Then Herny saw Sammy's "Sing with me" Message on the wall in ink behind Jack.  That gave Henry an idea. He looked back down at Jack with a slightly sad smile.

"Sammy still Coming down into your turf and bugging you with?" He ask, bending down a little bit, feeling the ink go slightly higher up his pants and legs. That seem to struck something to the Searcher, as he seemed to back his body up for a second, like how characters sometimes do in cartoons. "Yeah, I remember when sometimes  I would walk into the music department to check on things for Joey, Sometimes it would get so loud form an argument between one of the workers and him that you have to litterly dorp anything you had and Lea just to get some peace" he started giggling a bit at the memory's, trying not to let any tears fall from missing those good old days. "But I Guess even turning into an ink creature you still can't manage to escape Sammy's rants afterwards."

That's when Jack seemed looked a bit shocked, in the memory recalling way,  for a second. He then proceeded to seemly attempt to say something in the moaning-like noises Searchers made, in a slightly questioning manner. After about a minute it hit Henry that Jack was trying to say a Name. Henry's name. 

He smiled again. "Yeah buddy. It's me, Henry." Jack looked down at the ground for a few minutes as it felled silent,  except for the raindrop sounds of the nearby ink. It quickly seemed clear too Henry that Jack was recalling all he could about when he was human. This was only for confirm more when what seemed to be an inky tear fell down Jack's face,  follow by another and another.  Herny bent down and place his hand on Jack's "shoulder" as he looked up at him, tears still slowly yet surely going down his face. "Don't cry buddy. It's going to be OK." he said with a soft smile, even due deep down he knew that might not be the case.

Jack proceeded to nod as Henry try to wipe some of the tears away. After a minute Jack proceeded to give him the vale.  Henry took it, and then Jack dissaperd into the ink. "Alright, see you later then Jack." Henry said with a smile as he left the room.  He was glad, still guilt-full, but glad. His hope of this working was increased.

He put the vale in and continue with the rest of the "chapter". As, sadly, excepted, Sammy stilled tried to sacrifice Henry to Bendy. But as always, Sammy got hurt but not killed and Henry had to outrun the monster version of his creation. He allowed himself to clam down a bit once he blocked off the door so Bendy couldn't get to him. He stepped forward and sure enough the can of bacon soup rolled out of the corner. He smiled and walked around,  to see Brois........to see Wally hiding. He looked a bit shocked and step back, a bit worried. Henry smiled slightly . "Hey Wally, Guess you never got outta here." The mute toon then processed to tilt his head to the side, seemly confused, before Trusting Henry and taking him to his safe house. 

Since nothing too exciting happen between when he ended "chapter 2" and when he started "Chapter 3", he decided to use the days between them to try and get Wally to remember himself. But before he did that, he found a book on sigh language in the safe house and made him and Wally learn and memorize their and others names, Wally still at this point not understanding why he referred to him as "Wally" Instead of "Brois", and other terms to make it easier for them to communicate, since they won't always have a piece of paper and something to more easily write with on them. He hope that if they do get out he be able to somehow find a way to talk. Then Henry started talking to Wally about his memories of when they worked together at the studio before he left and things went crazy. Wally did seem to slightly recall some memories, and when he lost when him and Henry played cards, he started pouting and seemed to mount the words "I'm outta here". But besides that, none of what Henry said of the past made any since to the toon, or it didn't stick with him for long. 

In most loops, The bacon soup started running low and Wally would go to look for more real quick. Lucky for Henry, this was one of those loops. When Wally wasn't looking,  Henry rush out and manage to garb two of Wally's recordings and head back. Later, When the two sat down while they waited for the soup to finish cooking, Henry played the recordings too him. The first one he did acted like he heard, or even remember, those words before, but not really too much change memory wise. It was the second tape that give him the shock look of realization and recalling the past. It may have also helped that half way through Henry remembered he still had Wally's keys and placed them on the table. About 25 seconds after that tape ended Wally surprise hugged tackle Henry. After he proceeded to "talk" at super speed, seemingly forgetting that he was now mute. Henry smiled slightly with a chuckle. "Good to have you back Wally.".

And then came the day.... The day "Chapter 3" started . Henry sighed as he got out of bed. He had two days earlier told Wally about them being in a time loop, just because he needed to talk to someone about it. He didn't go to into detail, not wanting to scare the former Janitor of his fate. But Wally did seem to understand and assured Henry that it will be OK and he has a feeling this may be the last loop, and even if it isn't he has already unlock more secrets to getting them out if their in future loops. Henry kinda didn't want to go, but he knew he had to go. Now that Wally knows of the loop, it's only a matter of time before he forced Henry to get going anyway. Better on time then later, he guessed.

When he walked into the main room, he saw Wally with two blows of bacon soup ready to eat. Henry smiled and sat down, then proceeded to eat his soup. After which he told Wally that it's time to get going. Wally nods and give him the switch to the door. Henry put the switch in, warning Wally that things were going to get messy while he still could.  Then they proceeded to leave the room and so they started the "Chapter". Henry made sure to keep Wally close. He wasn't going to lose him again.  At least, he hope he so. 

When it got to the part where Wally had to go in the vents to turn on the door, he sighed Henry to wait for him. He placed a small Huck of metal nearby in between the top and bottom if the vent and went in. When the vent's door came down it stop at the metal, and Wally manuage to get back to Henry Before it broke it and slam shut. They continue on,  Henry being extra careful of Wally. He had to hide him behind his back when Susie showed, and make sure he didn't stick into the ink when the went through the Demon path. Henry just felt safer on that path, for whatever reason. He could have sworn he was a human like figure watching them due...

When they got to where Wally in past loops prank Henry with the Bendy cutout, the town picked up a pipe and handed it to Henry. "Just in case we have no other option" He sighed to him, it almost sounding like he said normally in Henry's mind. Then Henry met up with Charlie, who he believed to be the toymaker Shawn, him bursting through the poster near the pipe and falling to the ground.  Acting quickly Henry dropped the pipe and softly grabbed ahold of the cartoon's arm, noticing a crack he never saw before in it.  It was only a small crack, so Henry teared off a small piece of his shirt, added a slightly layer of ink in the side that would face the arm, and wrapped it around the crack. "There you go, Shawn" he said with a smile. 

Shawn looked up with slight confusetion and shocked. Then he proceeded to go through the poster he came out of. Henry pulled the lever and headed back to Wally. Then he and Wally walked into the room where all the dead Brois clones were..... Wally showed more emotion then usual. He looked at Henry and while he didn't sigh anything, the look in his pie cut eyes said it all, "Is that going to happen to me?". 

"No Wally, I'm not going to let that happen to you." Henry said, placing a hand on Wally's shoulder, due he couldn't help but feel like he was lieing to him. Of course when the door open he tried to rush to Safe the other Charlie, but as he walked into the room,  he noticed that it was already long dead,  and the jerk movements he saw were just the electric still going through the body.  He really hope if being a Pacifist was the key to getting free, that the butcher gang member in front of him and Wally didn't count. Then he saw that one didn't have part of a shirt around his arm, meaning this was in fact a different Charlie. Then he also noticed something strange, Susie didn't seem to notice Wally, or was just plan ignoring his presence.  Guess she's trying to trick then before....Henry forced the thought out of his mind. Not this loop.  Not ever again. 

While waiting for Susie to finish her speak, Henry decided to lighten him and Wally's mode by using the seeing tool to show him the "Blah Blah Blah Blah" message on the ground Henry wrote once. If Wally wasn't now mute, you could have heard him laughing like a hyena. He did make a slight giggling sound due, due he had to keep it down so Susie didn't here him.  After,  Henry started his "Jobs" for Susie,  not wanting to get on her Bad side. Lucky it was easier for him. When he got to where he could have to fight a Charlie for a gear, It being the same Charlie who he helped, Shawn ran up and willingly gave the gears to Henry. And when he was froce too get ink form the creatures and the searcher and Barley...that Murry guy possibly... went to attack, the same Charlie came and stopped them,  amusingly telling them how he fix his arm and meant no threat. Henry was able to pick up a bit of a accent in his voice, confirming his thoughts. After which the two and some others allowed Henry to careful take some of their ink.

Then he saw Poor Norman though the glass.  Probably the most effectied memory lost wise of all. Henry knew it may be next "chapter" before he be able to save him, as that where his "Final death" took place. But he already had something in mind. When he went to destroy the bendy cutouts,  he sighed, it just felt worng destorying something that looked like his beloved character. When Shawn went up to him, Henry explain what he had to do and why he didn't want to do it. Next thing he knew the Butcher gang was destorying all the cutouts for him so he didn't have to in around 3 minutes and pushed him back in the elevator before Bendy could appear. When he got down to Norman's level he garbed his audio recording and went in,  staying out of his sight. Then.... A few minutes later...as he feared... He elevator dropped. 

When they crashed, Henry was struggling to stay conscience, going in and out of it. Wally was trying to wake him up...susie was on her way to take and turned him into that monster.  Henry tried to tell Wally to run....it was no use.  She was about to walked into the room when for a few seconds the world shooked. A large box or something,  His vision was too blurry to tell at the time, Collapsed to the ground in the entrance way, making it impossible for Susie to get Wally. Shocked,  Henry looked up slightly, to see the Butcher Gang by a lever he never saw before. They saved Wally.....Wally was going to be OK after all.  Henry cried of Joy slightly before blacking out,  finally gaining the happy ending to "Chapter 3". His last thoughts before going fully out were "This idea was the ture may all long, thank God I finally found it."

"You doing well, The deal maker Keanrots wouldn't be pleased, but they'll have to learn to live with it" he herad a voice in his head slightly whlie out. He was confused. Who was it? Why hadn't he herad it before. What was A Keanrot? Why did he felt it had something to do with Joey....

Those thoughts were cut off when he woke up in "Chapter 4" Wally was beside him asleep peacefully.  Henry saw a message written ink near another lever he hadn't seen before. "If you must continue on,  flip this to left the box - The butcher gang" it read. Henry smiled and pulled up the looking glass. He garbed the flouting ink bell and went over and written "Pacifism is the true key" beside it. He knew there was a still sad possibly of him having to fight and end someone, messing Everything up, and the loop will reset agein, so it was best to leave a reminder. Then he looked at the now awake Wally. He then told Wally about what normally happen when the "Chapter 3 and 4" ended. Wally was, of course, horrorifed, but was glad knowing that he should be safe.  After a few minutes of consideration, they pulled the lever and went on,  slightly excited to see wear this new "Chapter 4" will take him. 

For one, Susie didn't mention "Brois " at a the few times she spoke over the loud speakers. But Henry didn't let his guard down. He wasn't going to let Susie take Wally. Speaking of Wally, he helped Henry with the games he had to play in order to continue. Of course the butcher gang was as nice as ever when Henry went to where he normally have to distract them by throwing a can of bacon soup. The two small groups even took a few minutes to have some bacon soup together. It was long enough for him to confirm his thoughts that Balrey and Edger were Murry and Grant, even if they didn't say it drictitly. When they were done he took a small bowl into the room that had the cage where a lost one that he was sure was Lacie. She always seemed so sad and so worried. He manage to get it in through a hole that was a little bit bigger then the others, as some form of comfort.  He had Wally write in Normal ink "We'll be back for you in time." on the nearby wall where she could see it. 

He also had him do it in the room filled with lost ones when they were there. Reason being that even if they do manage to get everyone free,  they might still be trapped in their inky forms.  And whlie he did live on the country side of his town, and have lots of land to the back of his house, he'll need to find some way to buy it so he could get everyone free. While he did have some random guest rooms in his house, surely he wouldn't be able to fit everyone inside the house,  even if most of them are made of ink. Suddenly he felt something cold on his shoulder.  He looked and saw Wally placed an still slightly covered in ink hand on Henry's shoulder, snaping him out of the trace he was in for a few minutes. 

Then they got to where they needed to fight Bertrum, it Henry felt this was where it might get messed up. Of course they had some trouble,  not fully understanding how they can win the Pacifist way. Soon Henry was badly hurt and was starting to bleed. Wally quickly garbed and axe and got him and Henry into a corner, waiting for the next attack.  Henry felt all he could remember of his life flash before his eyes as he started crying.

"Please, just let us pull the lever and leave! I just want to get us all out of this prison! I need to see Linda and Luna agein. How long has it been since I've been trapped here. Maybe a year now? " He shouted-cry unconsciously. There was only so long he could keep all his emotions locked up in these type of situations.

That seem to make Bertram stop mid attack. He shooked his head inside the machine slightly before looking back at Henry in slight shock and slight embarrassment. He started apologizing, claiming that he had the habit of amusing whoever walked into the room was Joey and attacking them before realizing it wasn't. And Henry Brown hair and blue eyes (Joey's we're a bit of a darkish green) and just being a human in general made him think he had him for sure. After a few minutes Henry and Wally left to continue the chapter, letting Bertram know they'll come back for him when they can.

Then they got to where they have to save Norman. Henry told the plan too Wally. He knew it was going to be risky, but it may be thier only shot at saveing him. And he had to get it right, otherwise all they worked for will become hopeless. This had to work. They sat quitely in the miracle station. They saw Norman start to reach his inky hand to the door. That's when Henry and Wally made thier risky move, opening the door and pulled Norman in. Henry thought being cramped in thier with Wally was like being in a can of sardines or other fish. He was worng.

Before Norman could do anything in retaliation, they all fell silent as the ink demon apperd in frount of them. He knew they were in thier, but by whatever froce or logic, he couldn't just open the door and get to them. Soon he left. Once they were sure it was safe, they got out. Norman just looked at the man and wolf toon confused. Then Henry pulled out the recording and played it. Norman seemed to started recalling his own memories the longer the tape played. By the time it ended, Norman was poniting at it and back to him. Then he manage to dim his light so he could look at them in the eyes without hurting them as much. Then he seemed to try talking to them, but it only manuage to came out in staic-like sounds. Whlie they weren't sure whqt he was saying, one thing was for sure when tehy went to complete the "Chapter". Norman wasn't leaving thier side, staying beside them the whloe way too the huanted house, and the 3 got into the cart and went for a ride.

Since Wally was alright, Heny wasn't sure what would wait for them at the end of the ride. When they got to where "Brute 'Brois' "  would jumpscare him, the cart was flipback by the track itself. They heard Susie laugh like a demon (ironic) as Fire and weponds and spikes quicky filled the room. Norman pushed all he could back away form them whlie Wally made sure Heney wasn't getting hurt. He noticed a symbol on some of them. He wasn't sure where he saw it before, but it looked like the shape of a head of someone. It was like they were in the middle of a battle field, only without training and the battle being something out of a horror movie. Only God knows how they surived in the end.

Susie quickly came rushing out. Wally ran and hid behind Norman and Norman brighten his light and got into a fighting pose. Henry garbed Susie arm and pulled her Behind him right before Allison could stab her through the chest. Doing so nearly getting his nose cut in half but Allison stoped in time. Susie looked at where she could have died in shock. She looked at Henry. "H-How did you know she was there? And why save me?"

Henry looked at her and suruged. "When you been stuck in a time loop for you don't even know how long, you kinda know the exact mommet everything happens. And I worked too hard on this "Pacifist round" to give up now."

After some looks of confusion, Allison and Tom too the safe house and locked in the cell room. Frist Henry explain to them about time loop there stuck in. Susie and Norman, being saved before thier second of death, belived it. Tom didn't by it at all. Allison they seem to be unsure of wither she should believe it or not. Henry also did try to remind them of when they were human. They did seem to start remebering. Tom did seem to try and ingore the memories, still not trusting Henry and his little group, even if one of them was also a Brois clone. Allison did talk about her Memories with them when Tom wasn't around. But she herself was unsure if they were memories or vision. And before they all knew it, the Begining to the final "Chapter" came.

Henry woke up to Allison trying to get Tom to help her get the out of there before Bendy came in. And Susie yelling at them wasn't helping. He walked over to the window in the cell and gently place his hand on Allison's shoulder. "You two go on" he said with a slight smile. "We'll catch up" 

Allison was hesitant, then with the look of guilt in her eyes, left with Tom. "Are you crazy!? You just ruin our only chance of getting out of this cell!" Susie yelled at him. He just stared at her as he pulled the spond, got the hidden pipe, and smacked the broods down. "Oh right...endless loop in time..." Susie said, resulting in a face plam from Norman. Then they went to break the loop. Henry did have to keep reminding them that they couodn't hurt anyone. There was just 2 more main people they needed to save now.

After they manage to eascpe the ink river monster thing (he found out the hard way that it wasn't actually anyone, just a true creation of the ink), Henry quicky warn the lost one fishing of what would happen if they didn't mange to save Sammy, and that they mean no harm. Then Sammy came out, ready to attack. Norman and Wally both had to hold Susie back form attacking him with rage.  Henry tried talking to Sammy, but it wasn't working. After a whlie the pipe sliped out of Henry hands, Smaking the mask off of Sammy's face.

"No! Don't look at me! Stay away..." Sammy said as he coverd his face and ran to his usely spot. Henry approached him form behind and placed a hand on Sammy's shoulder, unaware that Allison and Tom were watching.

" Hey Sammy...it's ok...Your face doesn't look bad....what's the need to act all shy about it" Henry said, being carefully not to get to where Sammy could garb him. Sammy didn't seem to respond. "Come on, where's the Sammy the used to be a bit Gurmpy, yet still manage to bring a smile to our faces all the time?" 

Sammy looked at the man, the Same recalling look it his black-gray eyes. "Henry?" He ask. Henry noded slightly. "Oh god....I was just trying too...."

"Hey, it's ok! The ink just messed with your head and memories. Happen to these guys too." He said, estureing too the other Ink creatures. Then Susie picked up the mask and walked over too Sammy, handing it too him.

"Your face doesn't look that bad, but if you pefer to wear this, be my guest." She said. Sammy looked at her before smiling slightly, then putting the mask back on.

"Glad to see you finelly realize it wasn't Sammy's flaut you were replace. I supose it's kinda my flaut due" Allison said form behind them all, seemingly regainimg her Memories too. Susie gave her a look that said "Yeah, it is". Then when the serachers and lost ones didn't apperd, they contuied on.

When Henry felled, Sammy, Norman, and Tom fell down with him, leaving Wally and Susie with Allison. When they got to Tom's adiuo recording form when he was human and played it, Tom's eyes widened slightly when he herad his voice and how he was involved with the Ink Machine and Bendy. He collaspe to the ground, hands over his head like Wally did when he got scared. Only Tom was also crying. Henry could make out the words "It's all my fluat" form what Tom mounthed.

The there others covinve him that Joey tricked him and that it wasn't his flaut, and that things will be ok. After getting the stubborn guilty toon to agree, at least partly, they went on. When they got to where Henry would have to avoid the butcher gang, then just smile and wave at each other if they past by. When the two groups met up agein, Tom hugged Allison, trying to apolgize for getting them into these mess.

Then they got to the lair of Bendy. Still no way for the ink creatures to cross. Allison looked at Henry "I'm not sure how, but we'll find some way to catch up"

"Till then, go tell that false Lord who's boss." Sammy said, slightly makeing a fist.

"If you surive being an errand boy to me, the ink demon should be no problem." Susie said.

The 3 mutes noded, Wally sighing Henry "Go get us outta here."

Henry nodded as he walked through the ink river and into the machine. As he walked through the corrador to the throne room, he thought about all he regain. He just might finalely be able to break this loop once and for all. Suddenly, he recalled the Poem. This turely was the way all along, and he just have to get Bendy to set them all free. He could almost see something smile softly had him in the reflections of glass as he walked past them.

When he walked into the throne room he played the tape. However, he could only re-lestion to Joey's voice giving him flase hope, before he had to throw and smash it agesint the wall.

"Well well well, someone seems mad" Henry herad Bendy say. It wasn't as much of a suprise, he had herad Bendy talk a few times in past loops. He turned around to face the ink creature. "So.....your going to try and end me, Henry, was it?" Bendy seenerd.

"And have the time loop agein?" Henry asked.

Bendy tilt his head to the side, his grin fading to a frown. "What do you mean by that?"

Henry sighed as he looked to the ground. "We done this many times before. Froce to do the Same thing over and over agein, all becuase of Joey."

Bendy walked over to the side of the trone, but still keeping a bit of a distance. "I had have "vistions" before, so I guess we are. Not to surpiseing knowing my creator, why i outta-"

"He's not your creator"

"-What?" Bendy said surpirse. "I mean I always thought he looked differnt then my vision I had of my creation, even whlie the face was blurred." He paused and looked up at one of the screens, a slight sad smile forming.

"Oh Those good old days. Just me, Brois, Alice, the butcher gang, the REAL them. Even if I always knew we were just a show in the back of my mind, it was perfect for me....until I was froced here....to the body of a monster" he said, sounding like he was trying not to cry. Henry felt more sadness and guilt wash over him. This was the little devil darling he created, the real bendy, Joey was just to blind to notice it, only careing about looks. To be honest it seem Everyone else, including him, were blind to that too.

Bendy looked back at Henry, the same look as before. "But Joey was the owner of the studio, and I was it's star creation. And no one else clam to be my true creator, so who else could it possibley be?" Bendy ask, tilting his head to the side.

Henry looked to the side, not sure how to break the news to his creation. Then he looked Bendy in the eyes-er...where he amused his eyes. "Joey stole you form him. He pretended to reject you, but then when your creator got sick and had to stay home, Joey stole you form him And by the time he realize this, it was too late to do anything about it. He left the studio sometime before all this happen."

Bendy just stared at Henry, not sure of weather he could belive him or not. "You seem to know a lot of my creator, how do you? And if you knew I wasn't Joey's creation, why didn't you try to stop him?" Bendy ask, slight distrust hidden in his voice.

"Becuase I'm your true creator."

Silent filld the room as Henry could only amuse Beney's eyes widien. "Y-Your jokeing, trying to play a trick on me.." Bendy said as Henry walked over. Then Henry grabed Bendy's shoulders and pulled him down so they were face to face.

"You said you recalled seeing a blur verison of your creator's face. Whlie I am older now, you still should be able to recognize it. " He said, closeing his eyes and bringing thier faces closer togeter, just barely touching. "And if had known what Joey had done.......I would have come to get you sooner, promise. I would have love you the way you are, I wouldn't have cared how you look. You were mine and you always had a spot in my heart like my wife and child does, you know that, right?" he said, trying not to tear up.

After a small gasp, Bendy, as gently as he could, quickly hugged Henry, remembering him. Then the others, seemingly found a way across, came in the see the Creator-Creation mommet. When the two parted, there seem to be the sound of a finger snap in the background, they all had a vistion simmler to Henry's form "Chapter four". It showed chains all over the walls and trasparent ones around all thier neaks. But then the chains on the walls dissaperd and the ones around thier necks broke.

When it ended they all saw an evalor that waen't there before. The inside had a message written in white sparkling ink.

"Inky forms you may forever be trapped in. But now the outside with the sun is waiting. Go on, creation of the Perfect Bendy in human skin. Set everyone free once agein." It read.

When they head in, they saw a botton coverd in that ink. The pressed it and it lead to the begining of "Chapter 1". Henry saw the sercent poem was now also filled with that ink. Bendy walked over to the door and reached his claw out, ready to break through. Henry could already see him hugging Luna tight in his arms.

Bendy claw went through the whole door, not frocefiled to stop it. While the door muffled the sound, they could all hear the voice of the man that got them in this mess slight screams. That proved it. They we're finely going to be free.

Where You Belong (Part 3)

Word Count: 10,773

Warnings: language, cheating, brief mentions of black mirror’s black museum episode (spoiler ig if you haven't seen it?), a cliffhanger, and angst but you knew that

[ tumblrs a jack*ss and links are broken, pls check my blog to catch up on the first three parts ]

Your body betrays you by waking you up agonizingly early, before your alarm has rung and before the sun has even had a chance to rise. The glaring numbers on your phone reveal that it’s barely 5 AM. You groan into the cushions beneath you, frustrated because you have to be at work in three hours and you were just robbed of a potentially meaningful last hour of sleep.

Opening a single eye to look back at the device’s bright screen, you can’t ignore the top notifications which continue to blink and beg for your attention. 15 missed calls and a somewhat impressive 28 unread texts all from Jungkook. It’s more than he sent in the month alone.

Your first thought is to ignore them, you want to ignore him, it’s too early to even think about processing what he has to say or replaying last night’s events. A sharp pain spreads through your chest, stretching until it meets your rib cage where there lies an almost forgotten void. There’s always those few seconds the morning after something terrible has happened, a moment of ignorant bliss, until your mind and heart remember and everything hurts again. The ache reminds you why last night went the way it did.

You don’t know that you can handle whatever he has to say, though you are curious...

Curious if someone who’s still in love and terrified of losing their girlfriend sends 28 texts and calls 15 times. Is that what it meant? Was he scared, desperate, remorseful? Or did he only offer a pathetic apology in twenty-something streams of the word sorry?

Driven by curiosity, you press a thumb to unlock your phone and open all the unread messages from last night.

From: jungkook♥ [9:36 PM]

I love you y/n. Whenever you see this, you don’t have to call me back jus let me know that you’re somewhere safe alright?

  “You love me? Right.” After a click of your tongue you chuck the phone back onto the table. Out of sight, out of mind, you think with a throw of the blanket over your head.

His messages didn’t offer any relief, all they’ve done is overwhelm and mildly irritate you because he acts as if you at least owe him the status of your location and quite frankly- you don’t owe him shit.

How dare he act worried about you and have the nerve to type out that disingenuous four-letter word like- I know you just found out my coworker sucked my dick but goodnight, love you. The audacity! Why should you have to tell him where you ran off to when he cheated on you and hid it for a week? Oh so well, as one may add, because there hadn’t been a sliver of suspicion. Had Taehyung not even been a factor, would he have ever told you? It’s unlikely and no one will ever know. It’s possible that he may have after much much time had passed, so maybe you’ll possibly tell him that you are in the safe confines of someone-who-actually-loves-you’s home… after much much time, of course.

All of this quickly reminds you that you don’t have any of your things. Your hygiene products, clean work clothes, fresh underwear, makeup, etc. You didn’t even have your purse after abruptly leaving your apartment.

A frustrated groan escapes you because now you must figure out how you’ll properly get ready for work the way you normally do. The last thing you wanted was to go back and run into Jungkook. Some days he left bright and early at 5:30 AM and you can take your chances and hope it’s one of those mornings, but it could just as likely be a day he’s decided to sleep in until 8. His app is finished so he shouldn’t have any standing reason to go in early, if not for the fact that he missed nearly a week of work, so he may. The odds were 50/50, it’s better to not risk it.

There’s also the option to call out of work, to stay in and sulk until an hour that he absolutely couldn’t be home, pack all your things and run away to a small town where nobody knows you until things get better. While tempting, you’re realistic and know that you cannot just uproot your life because you’re sad. The mere thought of having to go out and put on a brave face in front of the world today while you felt broken inside was tiring in itself, but sulking seemed exhausting. It wouldn’t make you feel any better, so you might as well go on like it’s any other work day. You could just shower here, pull your hair in a bun, stop at a Target for clothes and other necessities on the way and everything would be fine. At least you’d be able to busy your mind with something other than the fact the love of your life shit on a three year relationship for another woman no less.

-----

Around 9 AM, your work phone rings loudly against the desk. It sends your heart racing into a frenzy because the only person who ever called was your boss, and she only called for impromptu staff meetings or more specifically- to fire someone.

“Y/N~” To your surprise, the lobby receptionist’s voice sings at your pickup.

“Hyerin, good morning!” You smile, thankful that you aren’t losing your job too.

“You have a guest down here waiting for you.”

“What..?”

Your poor heart doesn’t get a chance to relax, there was only person who came to visit you at work. A person who shouldn't be visiting you right now.

“Mhmm! He brought you coffee~!”

“He?” Your jaw clenches, there could be no way. Jungkook could not be ridiculous enough to show up to your job first thing in the morning. He specifically said he understood if it was too soon for you! Why is he doing this?  “I-- tell him I’m not in today!”

“He would know I’m lying!” Her hushed voice scratches against the receiver, tickling your eardrums uncomfortably.

“Then tell him I’m busy.”

“But he’s being so patient,” She says, her once melodious voice becoming sympathetic. “Shall I have him wait a few minutes?”

“Just tell him I don’t wanna see him, okay?”

“Oh but Y/N! I said he brought you coffee! Don’t be impolite and just come down, okay?”

Her end briefly goes silent before the endless dial tone beeps to indicate she’s hung up before you could utter another excuse. You mentally curse her because her greatest quality is that she’s the kindest person on earth, but her worst quality is that she’s the kindest person on earth and can’t tell unwanted guests to go away. In her defense, she doesn’t know that your boyfriend has been unloyal and you have a very valid reason for not wanting to see him.

On the way downstairs you are fully prepared to pour coffee over Jungkook’s head and curse him out for showing up to your place of work uninvited under the current circumstances. It’s disrespectful and he’s crossing a line by being here, you couldn’t wait to send him on his way. He couldn’t force you to talk if you didn’t want to. Though, that reaction would surely cause a scene. You will instead kindly let him know he’s being unprofessional and ask him to leave.

You practice the words again and again, it’s a must in order to not break the moment you face him. After all, the last time you saw him you were a bawling mess with mascara smearing on your fingertips and telling him you hated him while feeling like you might pass out. You couldn’t be the weak one this time.

Walking down the hall from the elevator your heart is still racing but you feel a sense of confidence even if it’s mild and fake, you’re just ready to get it over with. He’s leaning up against the front desk, distracted in a conversation with Hyerin as you approach. Heart thumping, the back of his head becomes clearer, strands of ash brown hair…

Your feet freeze against the marble flooring, “Taehyung?”

He swiftly turns at the sound of your voice, shoulders visibly relaxing when his eyes land on you. “Hey!” He pauses to turn, grabbing two concealed drinks off the edge of the reception desk, and closing the gap as he walks to you. “You left without saying anything.”

You should feel relieved but your mind and body hadn’t aligned, heart still shaken up over thinking he would be someone else. “Y-yea… I’m sorry. I left you a note, it was really early.”

“Oh! My fault, I didn’t see it. I came to make sure you’re okay.” He quirks a brow, letting you know his statement is indeed a question.

Not well given everything that’s happened, but that’s obvious. It wasn’t lunch time yet so it was possible in a few hours you’d be ready to slam your head into a wall but you’ve survived so far.

“I’m fine, Tae.”

His lips fall to an exaggerated frown, he is unconvinced and unimpressed by your attempt to not even sound dry. “How are you really, Y/N?”

You sigh, he would not be Taehyung if he didn’t at least try to get more from you. “Well… I’ve already cried once at my cubicle, I’m wearing $3 concealer that does nothing for the bags under my eyes, I have a minor headache and I just nearly had a heart attack because I thought you were Jungkook but other than that I’m okay, really.”

“You cried?”

You open your mouth to speak but get caught on an answer. Maybe you shouldn’t have slipped that part out not only because it’s embarrassing but now he’d just worry more than you knew he was. But it’s too late and the confession was made.

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Doesn’t matter.”

A month or so after Jungkook you’d also gotten a job, specifically the one you had now. Like Jungkook it wasn’t at all what you wanted to do. The first few weeks after graduating were hard, all of the places you really wanted to work just weren’t calling back or would immediately send the dreaded thanks but no thanks email. Your mom had forced you to stop being so nit picky and apply wherever you could, passively sending you links to job openings she would spot online herself. Eventually you scored a job in the corporate world- lucky enough to make a decent amount of money, get home early, and not work weekends. Not so fortunately, you were stuck in some boring entry-level position in a finance department. It was the last thing on earth you wanted to be doing but you’d felt obligated to take it because up until that point your parents were helping with rent and other money related responsibilities.

The only person who really knew how you felt back then was Jungkook. At first you claimed it was different, like you’d said to him then, at least he was doing something related to his dream career. But no, really, he got it. He understood the fear you had of not being able to move away from this, the weight of life’s responsibilities, the overwhelming desire to just do what the hell you were passionate about, he knew it all too well.

On your first day of work he printed one of the hundred-something selfies you two had taken on graduation day and bought a frame for you to prop on your desk. He’d told you not to peak and to assemble it once you got to work, obviously you didn’t and couldn’t resist temptation, and the surprise was a short note he wrote on the back.

Baby, Congrats !!!

I know you’re not excited but I will be excited for you because I’m really proud of you still. You always remind me that bad days are temporary when I complain about work, ha ha, I want to remind you that too. I know nothing is perfect right now, a lot of things suck, but you still have me. I look forward to the future because I still have you. We may not have our dream jobs but we have each other so hopefully we can live our dream life soon. Just hang in there!

I love you more than anything  - Jungkook

You couldn’t stop grinning the first time you’d read it. It was hard to find the words to say to him, hard to express your gratitude and how thankful you were you had him, you could only text him and say I love you so very much and that was enough for him.

Seeing that photo of your younger selves first thing in the morning was aggravating to say the least. You’d immediately slammed the frame down, picking at the back to take the pieces apart, intentions to tear the picture in half. But when you yanked it free from the slot and blue ink came to vision, you paused and read what he’d written less than a year ago. Tears were brimming before you realized. You didn’t have the guts to rip up the picture then, instead you shoved it in one of your drawers to be forgotten until you stumble upon it another day.

Taehyung looks at you worriedly, and it’s the same look he gave you yesterday before he turned your world upside down. A look you can now identify as the I-have-bad-news look.

“I saw Jungkook on my way here.”

“Okay?”

“He asked me if I’d heard from you.”

“Oh God... Taehyung please don’t tell me you told him I spent the night at your place.”

“I told him.”

“Why!? Why would you do that!?”

Hyerin’s only a few feet behind him, so as her head turns and her prying gaze briefly catches your eyes you glance around the two of you quickly, checking that no one else heard your brief outburst.

“I- I didn’t realize- I don’t know? I’m sorry?”

Taking a deep breath in you close your eyes to calm yourself. You don’t mean to yell at him, he hasn’t done anything wrong or gone against verbalized wishes. You know this. You’re just on edge, emotional, and you didn’t want Jungkook to know where you were.

“Is it because it’s me? You didn’t want him to know you were with me?” He asks.

“What? Taehyung, oh my God, no! It’s not about you.” You try not to raise your voice anymore, though you were sure you were probably scowling at him, annoyed with his assumptions.

“Forget I asked.” He’s good at keeping his voice level, manages to not react after you, but you can tell he’s just as annoyed with you when a muscle tenses in his jaw. “Which one do you want?”

He raises the two drinks in his hands, one’s holding a clear plastic cup with dark liquid chilled over ice, and in the other he has a large paper cup, presumably the same dark liquid but hot. It’s a harsh reminder that you’re being snappy with the wrong person. No matter how irritable you were, he didn’t deserve the back end of it. All he did was give to you, even now when you keep being rude to him.

“Tae, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to-”

“It’s okay.”

“No, I’m sorry. I just got upset because… I’m not ready to talk to Jungkook and I don’t want him knowing where I am.”

“If you’re worried he’s gonna pop up on you, I don’t think it’s like that. He seemed really worried and I think he wanted to know you’re safe.”

Yeah, you think, that’s exactly what he said.

You finally take the hot coffee from his hand, finding a way to divert the conversation away from Jungkook.

“Thank you for this.”

“Of course. I have to leave soon. I’m shooting this guy for his acting portfolio. Then my friend is working a fashion shoot afterwards and invited me to help so I’m not sure when I’ll be done. I wanted to give you this.” With his free hand he reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a shiny gold key. “Just got it copied.”

He smiles widely, giggling as you hesitantly take the key into your own hand. You don’t know why he’s gushing about this but it has butterflies floating in your stomach.

“Is this to your apartment?”

“Where else? I mean- this isn’t me asking you to be my roommate but... I wanted you to have somewhere to go even if I’m not home.”

“Tae! You didn’t need to go copy a whole key I- I don’t know what to say.”

“You don’t have to say anything.”

-----

Taehyung’s apartment is empty when you get there after work, and while it’s not surprising because he did say he had work you still feel disappointed. Leaving work you were eager to get some alone time, but not like this.

All your coworkers actually showed up today, and being that it was the day after New Year’s, everyone wanted to talk about how great their New Year went. The universe was making a mock out of you, you were sure of it. A few of the girls priorly knew about your plans with Jungkook and had hopeful heart eyes as they asked about the cruise, and while the actual night was fine, yesterday was not something you even wanted to think about.

You’d always find a way out, excusing yourself to go make copies or apologizing because “I really need to finish writing this report.” Your sweet coworkers, they understood. Saying, “Right, I need to respond to a few emails” before running back to their own cubicles and leaving you alone. That is until a new question popped in their mind that’d have them strolling back over.

You were the only woman in your office with a standing long-term relationship, they all loved to live vicariously through you while struggling with their own love lives. You knew you’d break their hearts when you’d finally have to tell them the truth. At least for today, you omitted that bit of the story. Not only for their sake, but also for yours. It’s embarrassing to say the least.

You’re not sure yet what it says about you to be someone who got cheated on. Will people wonder what you did to push him that far? Will they pity you? Will they figure you must be a bad girlfriend and did something wrong?

Did you do something wrong?

Making your way to the kitchen you decide to scavenge Taehyung’s fridge for something to eat. Your stomach started grumbling a few hours ago after you made the silly choice of skipping lunch. Looking back, you’re not sure why you did because the persistent headache you’ve had since morning is likely due to the fact that you haven’t ate anything. Unfortunately for you and your pain his fridge is empty of anything edible, only stocked with a carton of milk, a pack of bottled water and a single bottle of wine.

“How do men survive like this?” You mutter, deciding to at least continue to hydrate your organs if you couldn’t feed them. You slump onto a chair at his small dining table thinking, Jungkook’s fridge would also look like that if it weren’t for me.

Across from you, his shiny macbook seems to wave hello, and beyond that you notice his camera bag is on the chair. If his camera is here then he can’t be at a photo shoot right now. Unless his friend told him not to bring it, then again why would you tell a photographer not to bring their camera? It’s possible he’s already been home, but you haven’t a clue where he’d be now.

The laptop shimmers in the light, begging for your attention once more, quietly reminding you about the interesting contents it holds.

“I know.” You grumble aloud. More to yourself because you are aware it’s an inanimate object that can’t actually communicate and it’s your own conscious taunting you. Yes, the pictures, I know.

The tempting voice asks if you’re even a little bit curious, if there’s a small part of you that wants to know what Taehyung saw in Jungkook that night? How he knew it before you, how he knows when he doesn’t even really know. It’s in the pictures like he’d said, and you could easily pass your fingertips over the smooth surface, you could open the lid, you could see for yourself.

But wouldn’t that be an invasion of privacy? Snooping through his laptop while he’s not even here just to see the way Jungkook interacts with some girl feels selfish and wrong. He probably has a lock on there anyway.

Oh but dear, the laptop says, he wanted you to see them after all! You could look through his camera, they might still be there. Taehyung wouldn’t mind at all! You should check!

It’s tempting, you think back, but I don’t know…

Don’t you wanna see the face of the woman who he found room in his heart for?

The words are way too personal, a blatant throw back of Jungkook’s confession. Another reminder that you definitely aren’t talking to a laptop and this is just conflicting dialogue in your own head.

Maybe there is a part of you that wants to know. It’ll probably hurt but you won’t stop wondering if you never look. Even just once.

You move from one seat to the other, placing his bag onto the table carefully. You’re gentle as you pull the Canon from it’s compartment, the weight of it shifting into both palms reminds you that if you do anything wrong your friend just might kill you because this baby costs (literal) thousands.

Thankfully, as the camera comes to life his, presumably, last photo taken appears on the small square screen which means you don’t have to press a million buttons just to find what you’re looking for. You scroll through the first photos, dozens of group shots of people wearing different hot pink garments, wondering briefly what the photo shoot was for. Eventually you land on close up photos of a younger guy, the head shots for Taehyung’s friend, you’re close. Until finally, there’s a photo of an older man and woman holding two thumbs up, the festive backdrop giving away they’re at a holiday party.

This is it.

You take a moment before continuing to scroll, preparing yourself mentally because you aren’t sure when you will finally land on a picture of the two in search, but you will reach them and when you do, you must contain your emotions.

It’s fine, it’ll be fine.

Moving on, you’re slower this time, carefully scanning each passing photo to be sure not to miss Jungkook. The first few ones, or rather last several, are group shots with the same old man as before, until they become more candid.

The first time you spot him, he’s in the background giving some guy a hug.

There’s another photo of him at a table, not alone, but not speaking to anyone. He’s completely unaware that he’s being captured in the background which makes his oblivious doe-like daze a little adorable. He’s so cute, you think. Also oblivious to the smile that’s perked on your lips.

That is until you skip to the next photo and noticeably feel it drop when you finally see her. Somehow, you just know. There’s a second woman in the photo who seems to be talking with her hands, Lia’s smiling and making eye contact, but Jungkook’s eyes are on Lia.

You pass it, moving onto something else. There’s another. This time, they’re the focus of the photo, sitting at a table with another you haven’t met, all engaged in laughter.

You skip a few more, until the next one with them is again in the background. He’s smirking but you can’t see her face because she’s sat at an angle and her hair’s in the way.

The next photo is captured from behind, but you know it’s them because of her red dress and the fact you can recognize Jungkook from any angle by now. One arm around his shoulder and her head leaning into him, what warranted her to come this close?

You pass many, many more photos until you see them again. A posed picture, with the same guy from the laughing one, and like this you can really get a good look at her. You’re not too prideful to admit that she is beautiful and she holds an enticing look in her eyes. Maybe that’s her special feature, but other than that what’s special about her? Past the pretty face and perfect smile, what separates her from you? What was there under her surface? How’d she win over Jungkook?

The next pictures you go through are mostly boring, just photos of everyone at the party eating and conversing. But there’s one common factor in all of them with Lia and Jungkook, he was always looking at her. Most of the time smiling while he did so. And most of that time, she was looking at him too.

There’s something obvious there, that maybe Taehyung also saw, they have a connection. That, even if you hadn’t known him, you would think they had something going on too with all the ridiculous googly eyes. But with that, because you know him, there’s something else you see- That he is absolutely fascinated by her, drawn to her, intrigued. Whatever special thing she possessed, he’s latched onto it and it’s pulled him away from you.

Tears begin to well and you have to set the camera down to wipe them away harshly. It’s annoying, this marks the third time today, and if you let yourself cry now it’ll only worsen your headache into a migraine. You don’t want to cry over him, he doesn’t deserve it. Crying means you care and well, obviously you care. You love him, but he doesn’t deserve that either. Why should you still love him after what he’s done to you?

It’s useless to keep rubbing your eyes, your knuckles pointlessly tug the skin just for them to become wet again. You didn’t want to cry but your body was intent on releasing it’s frustration.

It’s not fair that after so much time together this other person just gets to come in and move his heart- quite literally, like he said, making room inside of it. It’s not fair that just two months ago he said to you he couldn’t see himself with anybody else just to fall for another girl who knows how long after. Maybe it’d happened before he even said it. The fact that he was willing to explore how he felt about her should’ve been a dead giveaway that he was in denial at the time. Maybe you were too.

Could it be that she’s the reason your relationship spiraled in the first place? After he started work that’s when the distance between you two started to extend. There were a lot of other things you thought it could be. You thought he was depressed over the new job, closed off from you because he was closed off to the world. And at the time, you tried your best to be the optimistic one.  You tried to lift his spirits and be encouraging but maybe it wasn’t enough. Where did you go wrong? Where did you fail at making him happy?

Why weren’t you enough?

You desperately want to know what it is about her- what is it that Lia has and you don’t?

Is it all because he felt you weren’t reciprocating his efforts to fix things? Maybe you didn’t try hard enough. You should’ve done more- you should’ve been more affectionate and caring. You should’ve loved him better.

You flinch at the soft thud of the door closing, jumping out of your seat because it’s startled you. It’s just Taehyung, standing there silently with a harsh expression of worry.

“You were crying.” He says plainly, a hint of guilt in his tone.

“No.” You lie, wiping your face once more and forcing a laugh.

He shakes his head as he makes his way to you, setting a white to-go box on the table before standing in front of you.

“You think I’m stupid? Your eyes are red.” His voice is unnecessarily gentle as he cups your face in both hands, thumbs wiping away left over traces of tears. The sound of his voice alone makes your entire chest warm- you hate it. “Also, I saw you.”

“I’m fine.” You push his hands away because his affections are way too much for your weakened heart to handle. He seems displeased. “What’d you get?”

He glances at the table and then back to you. The pierce of his brown eyes makes your lungs constrict, even his gaze is difficult to hold.

“Fried chicken. You saw the pictures?”

“O- y-yea…” You force yourself to look away- if you breathe properly maybe you can talk without sounding like a moron. “I’m really sorry for going through your things I just got curious and I shouldn’t have but that’s-”

“It’s okay, Y/n.” He assures you, “Are you okay?”

Your mouth forms to say yes and he already knows the lie to come, fixing his question before you can.

“I mean you’re not okay. I’m asking if you wanna talk about it.”

“It’s okay.” There were too many layers to uncover, between your emotions and the pictures and your anniversary and what really happened at that party, “It’s a lot.”

He shrugs at your words like they don’t matter, “I’ve got some time. And I’ve got food.”

“Tae-”

“Tell me what’s on your mind.”

“I’m just confused. But I don’t want to ramble and get upset.”

“Why are you confused?”

“I just… I don’t understand Jungkook. I don’t understand why he likes that girl. I don’t understand why I wasn’t good enough.  I don’t understand why he was so good to me if there was someone else, even after what happened, all the way until I found that he fucking let her-” You stop there, unsure what words to use to explain what happened other than the disgusting frank description that was there in your mind. Your stomach was already churning, you couldn’t say it.

“He let her…?”

“They… you know…” You vaguely wave your hands between your bodies, back and forth from the direction of your mouth to his crotch, hoping he caught on to the innuendo and wouldn’t force you to be explicit. He’d already successfully tricked in you into saying more than you originally wanted to.

“Ahh, wow um…” Surprised, he understands, but uncertain with himself if that’s really what you meant. If only he knew just how bad it gets.

“Yes, and I don’t want to talk about it.”

“Alright, alright.” He holds his hands up defensively, letting the topic go at once.

At some point over the last few months he’d stopped being passive and tried harder to pry information out of you when you were being closed off. Not too forcefully, but it was silently appreciated. You’d become grateful for his willingness to listen to whatever was weighing on your mind no matter the topic, it was always followed with thoughtful responses and advice. Now though, it’s a bit more frustrating. Something about this was different. This was not something that was easy to open up about and you wished he would say OK and let it be.

You know there’s an elephant in the room and at some point the healthy thing to do will be talking about it and having that conversation with him, your closest friend, but today wasn’t it.

He makes his way to the farthest side of the table, “Well, I’ll have to eat dinner with you quickly because I have to go check on a tenant downstairs. Their heater isn’t working and as you can imagine in the middle of winter they aren’t happy about it.”

“If you have business to take care of it’s fine. I need to go back to my apartment anyway to grab some things before Jungkook gets home and then find a hotel somewhere.”

“You’re being ridiculous, you don’t need a hotel. And you should at least eat first.”

“It’s okay, I’m not hungry.” Your prolonged headache would beg to differ but you didn’t have much of an appetite anymore. You’re not sure how to respond to his first remark because it’s obvious you don’t have anywhere else to stay. You’d stay here, but only if he offered. You weren’t going to ask since you had no plan and it’d be quite the favor to ask someone to crash at their place for an indefinite period of time. “Ah, also, I don’t have my key… would you mind helping me get in?”

“Not at all.” A moment of silence drags on for a minute too long as he stares at you sadly, worrying his bottom lip, until he speaks up again. “You sure you don’t want to eat something?”

“I’m sure.”

With that, he heads over to the cabinet below the kitchen sink and pulls out of a bulky rectangular safe. Upon unlocking it there’s nearly a hundred keys organized on rows of hooks- a key to every room in the entire complex. He plucks yours straight from the center and then begins to count towards the bottom before he pulls another one.

After locking everything back up and putting it in it’s discreet place he places the keys in your hands silently. One reads 503, the other 705.

“What is this?”

“There’s a furnished room on the top floor. It’s clean, it’s got running water and it’s all yours.”

“Huh?”

“We only use it for tours because it has extra square footage compared to the other one bedrooms- don’t tell anybody that. Also, please do not lose these because if Mr.Lee finds out I’m doing this-”

“I understand!” You sputter, gripping the cold metal tightly. “Thank you, Taehyung.”

He beams at you, “It’s no problem. You still have a key here so don’t feel like you’re not welcome to visit.”

To visit, right, not to stay.

You weren’t going to ask him, no, but you do feel disappointed that he hadn’t offered. And maybe that’s selfish of you to think considering he’s risking his job just to offer you a private place of comfort and here you are wondering why you can’t stay with him.

You can’t help but feel this is his subtle way of getting rid of you, which is fair, your moodiness is probably annoying. Still, he’s being nothing but kind and going out of his way for you, and yet for some reason it’s all making you sad.

-----

It’s been exactly 10 days since you’ve seen Jungkook, which is impressive considering you both return home to the same complex every day and have yet to cross paths. For the first time ever you were thankful for the difference in your schedules, by now assuming that he was likely back to his usual 10 AM to 6 PM shift and that’s why you two hadn’t. But, you’d be a liar if you said you didn’t wish to see him every day.

There were countless times you had to stop yourself from calling him, thinking I just want to see how he’s doing. In the morning, on the way to work, in the evening, on the train, at night- especially at night, especially when you had to lay in bed alone. Other times you instinctively pressed for 5 on the elevator, only remembering you were on the wrong level when the doors opened to familiarity, you would consider for a moment getting off and just going back home, but deep down you knew better than to make that mistake. Your self control was also impressive.

In your own defense, your moments of weakness were absolutely valid, you two had been inseparable since that first day of sophomore year over three years ago, you never went more than two days without seeing each other. Well, that’s not entirely true. There was the winter break before you started dating, and his family’s week long vacation two summers ago, but you still talked every day so it’s not the same.

This last year in particular your lives were built around each other- you freaking moved in together. Every day for a year you woke up and he was there, you went to sleep and he was there, right next to you. Even your body knew that something was missing as it tossed and turned at night, falling asleep had become difficult. Unless you cried, but you tried to minimize that to every other day.

The spacious apartment did not help your loneliness either, you tried to find comfort and treat it like a get away, but really it was unfamiliar and lacked personal touch. You didn’t even feel like a guest in someone else’s home, the space felt outside of reality, outside of your norm.

The only time things didn’t feel so odd were when you were with Taehyung. In his space he provided the consistent comfort you craved. The only problem was that the past week just so happened to be a week he was packed with gig after gig after gig. He’d been very busy with his photography and while he did his best to call you throughout the days and make sure you were simply surviving, the physical time you spent together had dwindled down significantly. Another hard pill to swallow since you’d gotten used to seeing him every day too.

Your loneliness was becoming suffocating.

Thankfully tonight some of the girls from your job made dinner plans that you were included in, which turned into an impromptu trip to a nearby karaoke bar afterwards. It was a nice break away from your usual routine to go out and spend time with friends rather than sitting inside alone on a Friday night. It was also the most you’d laughed all week.

Your plan for when you got back to the apartment complex was to go straight inside, change out of your work clothes, quickly go through your bedtime routine before your mind had a chance to start wandering through every reason you had to be sad, and go to sleep. That all becomes impossible the second you step into 705 and are welcomed by it’s freezing cold draft, it feels like you’ve just stepped back outside into the winter night.

The thermostat claims the heat is on, set to 70 degrees, but the current indoor temperature reads as 42 degrees fahrenheit.

“Jesus Christ, not me.” You groan at the ceiling, letting your bag thump to the ground before bending over to fish for your cell phone.

To: Tae [9:42 PM]

Please tell me you’re home :(

You hold the phone in your hand for a few minutes, waiting for his message to pop up on the screen but his reply is not immediate. You begin to worry because he’s typically a quick responder as long as he’s not working, and though it’s late maybe he was still at a shoot, or he also decided to go out tonight. Either way, you’d have to figure out what to do because there was no way you could sleep in this place tonight.

From: Tae [9:47 PM]

I’m here

Sorry about that I was making tea

what’s up angel?

A-Angel?

You’re not sure that he’s ever called you that before and don’t know where it’s come from and your face may be heating up at the pet name but there’s more important matters at hand.

To: Tae [9:48 PM]

Uhh hate to bother you but… I think the heaters broken

 From: Tae [9:48 PM]

Nooo You’re the third person this week :(

From: Tae [9:49 PM]

I’m sorry, do you wanna sleep here?

Do you even have to ask?

---

When you arrive downstairs moments later he welcomes you in with a tight hug, as if it’s been months since he’s seen you but it’s only been three days. Regardless, the affection is much needed as you’ve been deprived of all physical forms, you feel yourself wanting to reach back out as he pulls away.

“I still have hot water, do you want me to make you some tea?”

“Hm, I’m okay, but thank you.” You were still fairly stuffed from dinner and the several virgin margaritas you enjoyed during karaoke.

Leaving your bags in the living room, you follow his path into the kitchen. Sure enough, there’s a kettle on the counter next to a small box and mug, he moves quickly to clean up the small mess and put things back into their place.

“Well since you’re here, do you want to watch a movie or anything? I think there’s a new episode of that weird sci-fi show you like.”

“First of all if you’re talking about Black Mirror, it’s not weird, but yes there’s a new interactive movie.”

He glances back to roll his eyes at you before dusting scraps into the trash bin. “You made me watch an episode where they trapped someone’s consciousness into a teddy bear… it’s a little weird.”

“There was so much to take away from that episode and that’s still all you talk about!”

When season four had first come out, you and Jungkook nearly finished it within a week, but life got in the way and you never got a chance to finish. One day you decided to just complete the season without him and enjoy the finale with Taehyung who’d never seen the show. You thought it’d be fun, thinking he’d provide insightful commentary, instead, he couldn’t get passed how cruel it was a character couldn’t express sadness beyond “Monkey needs a hug.”

“Would you rather talk about the guy who literally got off on murdering someone?”

“He-- no, please.”

He’s smiling as he walks back over to you and you can’t help but giggle because okay it is kind of weird and maybe you should’ve chosen a different episode to introduce him to but it was still really good!

“I’ll let you show me another episode, preferably one less dark.”

For whatever reason, he pulls your head against his chest to rest his own atop yours and wraps you back into his warmth. This time your heart immediately starts to race, nervous about the random affection, though your arms don’t hesitate to wrap around him either.

“It’s okay, I actually just wanna go to sleep.”

“Oh… okay...” He holds you tighter, sounding a bit disappointed.

You squeeze him back, a way of silently apologizing. You expect him to pull away then, but he doesn't, and neither do you because even with a jumping heart being like this was too comfortable. He was always so warm, and so cuddly, and his clothes always smelled like lavender. Which would confuse your brain at first when you’d get a whiff of him, the light fragrance so contrasting to that of your favorite- a warm blend of citrus notes and amber on Jungkook- but you also adored whatever floral fabric softener Taehyung used because you found it calming. In fact, you could stand here forever because the combination of all he had to offer was that relaxing. So relaxing that you can’t help but ask-

“Tae…” You release your hold so that you can step back and look at him but he doesn’t let you go, only slides his hands to the lower part of your back providing enough space for eye contact, responding with a yes? “Can I… sleep in your bed tonight?”

“I guess so? I don’t mind taking the couch.”

“No, I mean, with you.”

“Uh-” You catch the way his eyebrows almost raise with widening eyes before he can stop the reaction. You worry about the implications of your words.

“Unless it’s weird. Is that weird? I’m sorry.”

“No!” His hands abruptly fall away, swiping at the back of high thighs as he creates room between you two. “Not at all, I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be. I’m- it’s just hard sleeping alone, you know?”

“Y-yeah, it’s alright.”

Not long afterwards, after you both had changed and freshened up, you found yourself sitting up in Taehyung’s bed with your back against the wall. It seems silly to you now that you’ve never slept together let alone even stepped foot in his bedroom. But before all this, things were different, and even though you’re only friends it definitely would’ve been inappropriate taking all things into consideration- Taehyung’s feelings, your relationship, maybe even your fleeting non-platonic thoughts about him.

Now, you don’t question it too much, it’s not inappropriate or weird. You’re the only one making it a little weird because you keep thinking about the fact that Taehyung still likes you, or at least you assume so, and that he could use this opportunity to make a move on you. Deep down you know he would never, he’s too respectable for that. Maybe you’d let him- ONLY because you’re vulnerable! He knows that. Which is why he shouldn’t, he’d be taking advantage of that. He won’t, but you still wonder if he will. Even as he rambles on about the earl grey tea his mom bought from Europe, a small yet very expensive Christmas present. There’s a reason why this French tea company is so special, but you wouldn’t know because see, you’re being weird.

How Jungkook would feel about all of this? What’s he up to anyway?

“Y/N? Are you listening to me?”

You’re startled by the sound of your name, but you nod furiously. “Of course, Tae. You were saying your mom and… amazing French company, great story!”

He shakes his head disapprovingly, “That’s how I know you weren’t paying attention. My mom bought the tea in France but it’s a Singaporean company!”

“Oh, see! I was close! I just missed that one little tidbit.”

He squints his eyes at you, knowing you’re telling a tale. Letting out an exaggerated sigh he rotates on his side to face you and props his elbow to rest his head in his palm. “Alright, what’s wrong? Spill the tea. No pun intended.”

“I know you’ll think I’m an idiot but I’m gonna say it. I miss Jungkook.���

“No I won’t!” He sits up fully in bed, seeing that the thoughts that plague you are deeper than he anticipated. He mirrors your image, crossing his legs before reaching to hold both your hands. “First of all you’re not an idiot and I would never think so little of you. It’s okay if you miss Jungkook, it’s expected. You don’t just forget about someone you love overnight or even within a week.”

Was that true, though?

“Why not? He did.”

Whether in the blink of an eye or months before you realized, he’d forgotten about you, forgotten what you meant to him, forgotten what you two had. Or is it that he didn’t love you anymore and that’s what made you so easy to forget?

“Didn’t I already tell you he’s a dumbass?” He grins, but you can’t find it in you to laugh, the insult doesn’t even make you feel the slightest bit better.

He sighs, rubbing his thumbs over the back of your hands. “Can I ask you something?”

You nod.

“Do you want to save your relationship?”

Your hands pull away, not because of him, but almost as if to brace yourself for the weight of reality as you press them into the bed on either side of you. You hadn’t really thought about that, your thought process never got that far. Would Jungkook even want that?

“I don’t know that it's possible. Jungkook told me he likes Lia, and if that’s true, then it’s serious. He isn’t easily swayed by pretty faces.”

Taehyung snorts, “Who said anything about her being pretty?”

Your arch a brow at him, unsure if he’s trying to insinuate something. “Well I saw her, she is pretty but… that’s just it, that's not the point. He actually needs to get to know someone if he’s gonna pursue them. I told you before how in college there were so many girls interested in him and he didn't like any of them. Not even me. Not until he knew me.”

“And now he likes her…”

“Exactly.”

“But that’s not what I asked. Put him aside for a moment and stop thinking about what he feels. What is it that you want?” He asks, pressing a finger into your knee.

What I want? That is still a lot to consider. A lot that you haven’t gone over. You’ve only focused on the current distance between the two of you, and keeping it that way until you felt strong enough to face him. You’ve only gone through past memories, you hadn’t thought of what the future held nor what you wanted it to.

“I don’t know, Tae. It sounds ridiculous but I can’t envision my life without him. The idea of going back to him feels daunting because I don’t know how to forgive him for what he did or how to trust him after this. Or even, how I could allow myself to love him. I don’t have answers but it’s like if I don’t then what? Where do I go and who do I become?”

“You don’t become anyone, if not just a better version of yourself. You don’t need him to have a complete identity.”

“That’s easy for you to say-”

“I know it’s easy for me to say,” His rebuttal is sharp, almost defensive. “No I didn’t just spend the last three years of my life with someone just for them to shit all over our history, but I’m right. You were somebody long before you even met him and you will still be somebody without him, if you choose to let him go.”

“I know that, but it’s not just easy for me to say, okay, bye Jungkook, and go on and be content with being alone.”

“You think you’d be alone?”

“Well, yes?”

It all circles back to what you first said, you can’t envision life without him. Even if you try, there’s nothing there, you, but nothing more. Maybe that should be enough, but that blank image in your mind feels empty, life would be lackluster and dull, something would always be missing.

“That’s not true.” He looks down for a moment, finding a loose string on his comforter to tug on. “You have me.”

At that, and as his eyes finds yours, the air in the room starts to thicken. The statement feels too direct. You know he means that as a reminder of his loyal friendship, you know it’s his way of saying hey I’m here, but it feels like something more.

“As long as I’m alive, you’ll always have me.”

“Hm, like forever.” Your own gaze slips away this time, unable to stop yourself from chuckling at the boundless promise of his words. An older version of you may have believed him, a version of you that believes love is timeless, the version of you with a committed boyfriend. You want to believe him because Taehyung is honest, he wouldn’t say it if he didn’t mean it. But words like this have been spoken truthfully to you before and look where it’s brought you.

“Jungkook and I are not the same.” It’s almost embarrassing how well Taehyung knows you, how spot on he is about what you’re thinking. “There was a point in time Jungkook couldn’t even see you, he didn’t see you then and he doesn’t see you now. Me?” He stops himself, you can tell by his tone that he knows he’s crossing a line again, about to walk past usual boundaries, about to say something he couldn’t have said before today, but he says it anyway. “The way I’ve felt about you has never changed. Every day I still feel what I felt the day I first met you… Even when you’ve confused me, even when you’ve cursed me, even when you’ve pushed me away, even when you defined the line in the sand and made it clear we could never be more than friends, even when you don’t see me… I feel it. So yes, like forever.”

You’re too afraid to look at him because you think you might crack the way you once had months ago, when a flood of emotion for him overtook you, when you considered giving into him.

“And I’m not asking you to- I’m not saying anything other than I’ve come with you this far and… whatever you do, nothing's gonna change.”

You have no words for him, nothing coherent, at least for now. You nearly throw yourself at him, sprouting up from your position on the left side of the bed to wrap your arms around his neck. He reacts quickly, thankfully, because as he falls sideways onto the mattress with a huff you realize you could’ve sent him tumbling backwards to the floor which would’ve been bad for the both of you.

You feel the soft laughter rumble beneath his chest as he tightens his hold around you, “Thank you?”

You’re overwhelmed with both gratitude and frustration, so much so that you think you could cry. How did you get so damn lucky to have this man in your life? It wasn’t fair. Logically, and karmically, it was not fair. Even as he said and listed reasons he’s had to pull back, to change his mind, to drop you, he hasn’t. He genuinely loves and supports you unconditionally and you don’t know how the hell that happened or why but there’s one thing you are certain of.

You are more than lucky, you are blessed to have Taehyung. And you hope that this friendship is eternal because you can’t imagine having to lose him too.

“Do you remember the first time we ate here?”

“Of course I do.”

You’d spent the first half of your Saturday lounging in bed, or rather Taehyung’s bed, all by yourself because he’d had an early morning shoot for… something you don’t remember because you were half asleep when he’d said. You’d stayed that way for a while, grumpily, because you were starving and too lazy to go out and eat and too stubborn to order delivery. By lunch time when your hunger hit peak aggravation you sent him a very aggressive text message in all caps to PLEASE BUY SOME FUCKING GROCERIES YOU DON’T EVEN HAVE BREAD. He promptly responded with a slew of laughing emojis, then letting you know he was already ten minutes away and to meet him downstairs.

He’d taken you the short walk to the taco truck around the corner, the very first place you hung out, a very telling choice after what he said last night.

“You never did thank me for showing you the best taco place in town.” He flicks at his bangs dramatically, turning a shoulder to you in faux offense.

“That’s because it’s not. I mean, it’s good but my favorite is this restaurant up north.”

“Why have you never taken me then?”

“They closed down last summer.”

“Must not have been too good.” He looks at you pointedly, flicking at his silky strands once more. You raise a fist, pretending like you might hit him, though you’re laughing at his obnoxiousness.

“I promise, you would’ve loved it.”

Just then, a lady pokes her head out from the wide window, calling your name for your order. Taehyung is first to run over and grab the small bag, though you take it back from him, offering to carry it on the walk back.

“Can I ask you something?”

“Sure.”

“What was your first impression of me?”

“Oh…” His question comes as a surprise, but you don’t think much of it, reflecting back to the day last spring. The very first time you met. “I thought you were very polite.”

“What about the first time we ate back there?”

“Well,” That question takes a little bit more digging. You have to remember the things you talked about that night, how you felt, how he seemed. “You seemed so… so… normal. Like, before that, I guess I kind of put you on a pedestal, I don’t know. You just seemed so composed and confident and like you had everything together but then we talked and you opened up to me and it was like ah, we’re not so different. It was refreshing.”

You look over to him and smile, he smiles, but he keeps his gaze towards to concrete as you continue up the block.

“Why do you ask? What was your first impression of me?”

“That you were the most beautiful girl I’d ever seen.”

You instantly stop in your tracks, it takes him a second to register but when he does the balls of his feet scratch against the gravel as he turns around.

“Stop it.” You say, squinting your eyes suspiciously at him because why is he trying to flirt and joke around right now it’s making me blush! “Tell me.”

“That’s it?” Even his eyes frown at you, confused why you won’t accept his answer.

You roll your eyes and push past him, taking a right at the corner as you continued ahead. His legs are long so it doesn’t take anything of him to catch up, and he asks why you don’t believe him.

“I thought you were attractive but I gave you a better answer than that.”

“Wait-” He takes a few skips to jump in front of you, forcing you to come to another stop as he blocks the way. “You thought I was attractive?”

“What? I said you were handsome.”

“No, you said attractive.” He says, wiggling his eyebrows.

Oh my God, did I?

“I- it doesn’t matter, it’s basically the same thing.”

You step right, he steps left, you step left, he steps right, refusing to let you go around while he dons a ridiculous smirk that you try really hard not to look at.

“What!”

“Don’t you wanna know my first impression?”

“...yes.”

“Don’t judge me.” He points a finger at you, waiting on your nod before he continues, tucking his hand back into his coat pocket. “When we were standing in the elevator together, my heart was beating so fast because I was so nervous, but I thought you were mean! You kept giving me short answers and you glared at me when I was just trying to be helpful!”

“Come on, you asked me where I lived, give me a break.”

He giggles, “I was just nervous and talking out of order. But then you relaxed after I told you who I was, and you even laughed at something I said and…”

“And…?”

“I felt really warm. My heart, my insides,” One hand moves from the left side of his chest then down to his abdomen. You can see that he hesitates, biting on the corner of his lip nervously, but he looks back to you and sees the harsh expression on your face. “It’s stupid.” He forces a laugh and continues to walk home. You’re only about 10 yards away, the front entrance is visible not far beyond him.

He’s misread your reaction, misunderstood your furrowed expression. You weren’t frowning at him because of judgement or because you thought it was stupid, you were frowning out of pure confusion because he’d described the same feeling he’s given to you.

And it was so simple, such a simple feeling, a simple word. But, warm, yes, you understood. You felt it too that very first day, you felt it the first time you hung out. You feel it when he looks at you, when he talks, when he hugs you, just being next to him in itself was like sitting by a fire. You were never sure what it was or what it meant, you never looked too much into it, but if the sentiment was mutual shouldn’t you tell him you feel it too?

You run ahead to catch up, he’s still standing outside the door, presumably waiting for you to go inside.

Taehyung had said before that you always know what to say, but you disagree. Maybe when it comes to uplifting others kind words come naturally, but you aren’t good with words themself, at least not when it comes to sharing and expressing your emotions.

That is precisely why you cup his face into your hands as he turns to you, unbothered by the tacos that get smushed somewhere between your arm and his chest, raising onto the balls of your feet and pulling him down the distance you couldn’t close to press your lips into his.

You’re not entirely sure why you’re kissing Taehyung, or rather you can’t explain why. It’s impulsive but it feels right as that familiar feeling overtakes your entire chest, replacing the vacant ache you’d grown accustomed to over the last week and a half and overwhelming you with so much desire for more. And at first, he gives in to you. His gentle hands find your hips, head turning as his mouth opens in sync with yours to deepen the kiss.

In that moment you place words on the purpose. Kissing him said way more than your grateful hugs ever could, and that was all you’d done before. But this wasn’t even about saying thank you, this was about admitting that maybe you felt the exact same way. This was easier than facing the fact that there really was no reason to keep suppressing your emotions. But then he abruptly pulls away, eyes wide as he sounds frightened when he says your name.

Your heart sinks because he’s looking at you like you’ve just done something you should not have done. Heat creeps up over your ears, this time because you’re actually uncomfortable, completely embarrassed because maybe you just made a mistake.

Your open your mouth to say something but nothing comes out, stuck on shock, you don’t know how to even begin saying sorry.

“Jungkook is inside.”

Wait… what?

If you couldn’t speak before, you definitely couldn’t now as all the air escapes your lungs, frozen and unable to breathe. You want to believe that you heard him wrong, or that he didn’t even say Jungkook’s name. But you’re too terrified to even look and confirm. You still aren’t ready, you don’t know what feelings will come up just by seeing him. Worst of all, you don’t know if Jungkook just watched you kiss Taehyung and you cringe at the thought.

You look right, and sure enough, on the other side of the clear glass Jungkook stands there just feet away looking right at you. The way your heart picks up speed is almost painful, you can tell by the disgruntled look on his face he’s seen everything.

[tbbt-faves]

So it’s 5 AM and I can’t sleep so let’s just go ahead an write this damn thing.

Sheldon Cooper: A prime example of character development.

NOTE: I’m so sorry if it takes forever to load all the gifs accompanying this gigantic text post but they’re necessary to illustrate my point perfectly and remove any possible ambiguity that might get me in trouble with anon h8ers (and also, the gifs make it more interesting). If necessary just let this page load for a few minutes in the background. Anyway, let’s begin:

So, I love this character. As most people do. I remember in.. 2007/8 when this show first came out and all people talked about at my school was Sheldon. Maybe a little bit about Howard but mostly Sheldon. He was, and in many ways, still is, such an unlikely likable character. For real, like, imagine reading this character, before seeing Jim playing him. He’s a dick. But somehow, and I don’t think we’ll ever know why, we all love him. We feel this strange sympathy for him.

I attribute a lot of that to Jim Parsons’ adorableness.

I mean look at HIM. But we’re not here to talk about that.

We’re here to talk about how he went from being this guy, who hated relationships and had no interest in other human beings

to becoming this guy.

Because I remember very well how everyone was so apprehensive about the idea of Sheldon having a love interest back in season 3.

Almost as much apprehension as we feel about the Sheldon spin off right now, am I rite? *high fives u* Ok, sorry. I’m gonna try to explain, or describe how I think the writers pulled this off. And you’re entitled to disagree with me, ok? This is just my opinion.

I think the writers of this show are geniuses, a little bit. Not because they write science jokes, because it’s barely about that anymore. But because they found a way to develop a character who seemed 1000000% the most unlikely to ever change in any way.

Let’s look at Season 1/2/3 Sheldon for a second.

He’s a germaphobe.

He doesn’t even like human company.

He disagrees with everyone.

He’s (as far as we know) asexual.

Best part, he’s 100% clueless.

100%!!!

Even when a girl shows interest in him, he doesn’t realize it

Or a guy.

It was funny, yes, but then the news came out that Sheldon was going to have a love interest

And we all wondered how the hell that was going to work. This is how they made it work: They brought in a character that was exactly like Sheldon. Despised physical contact.

Only went out with him to please his mother

Was just as smart as him.

Had the same interests as him.

But the best part about Amy was.. She did not seem as much into Sheldon as Sheldon was into her.

I loved that. Because it seemed so unlikely. I think most of us have forgotten this. Because the way they played it in every other season after season 4, it was the other way around, but not at first.

Amy seemed mostly unfazed by Sheldon.

At least from a relationship point of view.

It would’ve been so much easier for these writers to have this girl be into Sheldon and Sheldon not into her at all but then Sheldon could’ve never fallen for anyone like that, because we remember how that Ramona business turned out, right?

So of course, he liked her more.

He got a bunch of cats after a fight that ended their “relationship” (their words, not mine).

He asked her out and she turned him down

He got jealous of Leonard

He liked her kisses.

But the part that remained very true to the character we all knew and loved was that he denied all of it. That was what still made him very Sheldon. The Sheldon we all loved.

He denied jealousy

He let go of her hand after grabbing it.

He denied being hurt

He denied her being more than a friend.

Meanwhile Amy was just there… a bit of a mystery. Both to us, and Sheldon. Until we got to know her a little bit She became her own character and she.. had desires.

The roles reversed but Sheldon could not let go of her at this point. He was already so into her.

She kissed him and he pretended like it never happened. But it did.

And this is something we’ve come to see from this couple over and over again, and I suspect its the reason why we’re all oddly ok with Sheldon being the way he is today, compared to what he was then. They dragged things out as long as possible. It got to the point where we were all screaming at our TV screens, GOD, JUST ASK HER TO BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND ALREADY!!!!!1 It got to the point where Sheldon just couldn’t deny his own feelings anymore.

He had to ask her out.

He had to apologize when he was wrong.

He had to allow himself to love her.

And boy, that took a while.

But Amy always found ways, because she’s THE BEST.

So patient, so loving, so understanding.

Because she was Sheldon at some point, right?

She knew what he was going through.

And yet another great example of the writers dragging things out like crazy. Even “Sheldon initiated kiss” (SIK) was a thing on tumblr. I remember the 1000 fanfics written about how a SIK could happen. It was our #1 dream

And let’s all face it, season 6 was a major disappointment. Not only did we not get our SIK, but Sheldon was just… a dick this season.

But we got a cute hug

And Sheldon kinda admitted how much Amy meant to him 

So we decided to forget about it and hope the season 7 was the year of the SIK AND BOY IT WAS.

But before we get into that, let’s look at how much they dragged things out, shall we? 1

2

3

4

That last one was honestly just brutal.

I think all of us shamy shippers would’ve been ok if they just kissed whenever. We would’ve been fine with anything as long as he kissed her on the lips, but the writers probably struggled with the “everyday, normal, general, casual viewer” who doesn’t write huge essays like this one.

And it was so perfect man, I remember watching that scene, I almost had a heart attack.

I remember so very clearly when this scene came out and some Shamy haters (yes they exist, omg) were like “EVERYONES TALKING ABOUT HOW PERFECT IT WAS BUT ANY SCENE WOULD’VE PLEASED U GUYS” and I was like, yeah, thats true but. This kiss was on EVERY NEWS NETWORK IN THE WORLD

THIS STUPID MEME HAD LIKE A MILLION NOTES

EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT BECAUSE

it. was. so. perfect.

Let me tell you why, this episode begins with this scene: Sheldon, once again, suppressing his feelings. He counts down until he no longer feels the need to hug her.

And he’s so betrayed when he finds out Amy was hoping for some romance, cause he does NOT enjoy romance. He tries to make a point.

But now his own body betrays him.

It’s also perfect because this isn’t like every other time where Sheldon’s actions are completely misaligned with what he says. He’s not denying something, he’s just doing it. And he doesn’t ever try to deny it.

Let’s look at Sheldon with the cats once again.

He’s clearly struggling, while saying he’s not pining over anyone.

But kissing, he’s never talked about kissing. He’s never been in a position where he really wanted to kiss her and did it but then denied it.

This, somehow, has never occurred before. 3 years in and this has never happened

And now it does, and he so clearly loves it, and he never, ever. Not even the day after, tries to deny how much it meant to him.

This, ladies gentlemen, is when Sheldon realizes he’s in love.

And he sooo wants to kiss her again, but he doesn’t do it.

Instead he adds it to the relationship agreement, of course. And he’s so willing man, it’s beautiful.

Of course he doesn’t admit he’s in love ’til a year later, but that’s how much we have to drag it out right?

And now that he’s said it, he doesn’t have to hide it anymore.

This guy is just so in love

It’s beautiful. We’re all so happy

and Amy too, and she starts to think that maybe that means Sheldon’s ready for a little bit more.

But he’s not, and that hits her like a damn truck.

She has to break up, patience’s run out, she needs some time off.

And Sheldon knew what had happened. Amy was disappointed because he wasn’t thinking about sex, so he thinks it’s the coitus part that made Amy want to break up.

I’ve said this 10 thousand times already but I love that look (JIM YOU DESERVE EVERY EMMY). It’s such a small, 2 second shot but it shows exactly his thoughts this whole time.

He thinks Amy broke up with him because of the lack of coitus, but it wasn’t that. It was so much more than that.

This whole episode was so clearly a set up to them getting back together.

They’re back to season 4 Shamy. They’re playing games, admiring each other.

Once again, we’re all going JUST KISS HER DAMMIT GET BACK TOGETHER PLEASE

And the end hit US (and Amy) like a damn truck now.

Sheldon was so hurt, he didn’t want to go through all that pain again. He decides he’d rather have Amy as a friend, now that he sees it as a possibility, rather than risk getting his heart broken again.

But then, he comes to a great realization. Amy’s only made him better since they met.

He realizes he is, once again, denying his own feelings.

To hell with that, they’re back together, and this time, for real.

Yes, that means coitus, too. And once again we all went.. “how the hell is that gonna work”. This is probably the first time, since Amy’s arrival, when something happened when we were not expecting it.

They didn’t really drag this out, I mean, in a way, they did cause it’s already been 5 years since Amy’s introduction but also.. not so much. They’d just gotten back together, and we’d all probably thought that 2 kisses were supposed to hold us for a while.

And coitus happened. Something I mysteriously haven’t talked about yet, is why this couple is so appealing to so many people. In part it’s beautiful because of Sheldon’s development, yes, but also because Sheldon and Amy are each other’s 1st love. It seems so unlikely that two people would find love for the first time in their 30s, but that’s exactly what this relationship is.

This is the first time for both of them, and I’m not talking about virginity, no. I’m talking about first time falling for someone. Watching that is so beautiful. It’s one of the best parts about this couple. It brings out a familiar feeling for all of us.

Same with them losing their virginity, it wasn’t about “oooh, Sheldon’s a stud in bed!!”, it’s about, being nervous, anxious...

But ultimately knowing it’s the right time because you love this person and know them and trust them.

It’s again, so unlikely that Amy would be the one having doubts and being nervous right before it happens, and Sheldon’s so calm and sure that this is right.

But that made it all the more beautiful for us, didn’t it?

And yes he’s a genius in bed, too. Period.

Now there’s nothing really holding them back. Coitus only once a year, sure, but that’s it.

Sheldon makes mistakes, and denies his own feelings sometimes but he’s matured enough to realize it and apologize for it, but more than that, he makes adjustments for Amy.

He moves in with her,

adjusts his lifestyle for her

he makes a real effort

Something Amy’s been doing for years now, he’s finally doing it for her.

And, as I’ve said 10 thousand times already, it’s BEAUTIFUL.

And finally, to end this extremely long text post, my favorite headcanon about this couple has always been how Amy is the ONLY person that could’ve made this happen for Sheldon.

She’s the only woman he’d ever want to date, be intimate with, kiss, etc. She’s the only one he could fall for. And I’ll be honest, I was never really sure that that was really canon on the show. Until season 10, episode 24 happened.

And it sucked seeing Sheldon enjoying somebody else’s company so much, even though he obviously did not enjoy it as more than a friendship, but

when Ramona kisses him, he realizes Amy’s the only person he ever wants to be with. It’s canon now, bitches!

Amy’s the only one.

Car insurance questions!?!!? HELP! accident!?

Hey, three weeks ago, I got into a car accident and rear ended someone in the front with suv. I had a honda, and the insurance company declared it totaled and they are going to pay around 9k for the car. Since it was rear-end accident, insurance company held me for 100% at fault. The suv had broken/dented bumper and lower part of trunk lid dented (No broken lights or anything). I would say around few thousand dollars worth of damage. There were 3 people in the car and at the time they said they are all ok, and drove off. No police report was filed. When I called at night to get one of the guy's birthday, he said all three went to emergency, and had whiplash pain in neck area (which is understandable from rear-end accident). I had full coverage so I know my insurance comp. would pay their bills. The thing I am scared about is what if they sue me? I am from low-class family and a full time student on loans so I have no money or even a job. If they do, how much can they sue me for?""

Do auto insurance companies have to look at your driving record?

I have never had a vilolation. My husband has. He had one in 2006 for running a red light and one in 2008 for driving too fast for conditions. Well naturally this has given me higher payments. I was with Liberty Mutual and for liability only (my car isn't worth full coverage) I was paying $124 a month. My husbands pay was cut drastically at work so I was shopping around for cheaper insurance. I called Geico and they offered me liability for $55 a month. She came on and asked if I knew he had two tickets and at the time I didn't because I didn't know my husband in 2006. The lady told me my payments were going to be $144 with them and when I told her no she put me on hold. When she returned she offered me the $55. She read back to me everything I am getting which is a lot more than what I was getting from Liberty Mutual for a lot less price. Is it possible they just dissmissed the report to gain us as customers? I was cooking dinner at the time and my kids started playing loud so all I really heard was cha ching lol.

FR-44 INSURANCE PLEAAASSEE HELPPP CONFUSINGGGGG?

Ok so I need an FR-44 non owners insurance but I think its impossible to find a non owners policy here in Tampa, Fl. They keep telling me I need prior coverage/ownership of a vehicle. I do have a car but its not under my name(under my dads name) and I do have insurance but its under my dads name also (I put it under his name b/c it was going to be tooooo expensive for me to get it under my name b/c I was a teenager then). So now my question is: if i do not have luck with finding the non-owners fr-44, and I tranfer the car title to my name, can my dad add me to his current policy so that way I would be able to get the fr-44??? Also, if I do that(my dad adds me to his policy as a secondary driver,once the car is under my name) do I have to have the fr-44 from the same insurance company my dad has or can I get it elsewhere??? Thanks, I know its kind of confusing, and I probably didnt do a very good job at explaining myself. I hope someone out there understand.I would appreciate any help. Thanks and God bless.""

New Brunswick Motorcycle Insurance is based on...?

I will be moving to NB this summer (from BC), and was wondering how the insurance rates out there are determined. Here in BC there are a number of insurance brackets (based on displacement) which determine the base rate. All bikes in any one bracket pay the same, so a 600cc sportbike is cheaper than a 883 Sportster (these are only for liability, theft and collision are based more on $$ value). In general, is it the same in NB? Would I save money by going to a smaller bike (I currently ride a 1127cc Suzuki GSX1100G), assuming the actual $$ value of the bike was about the same? Does the type of bike matter? I'd ask an insurance agent, but they are usually pretty reticent to explain how their rates are determined. Hope you can help.""

False County Court Claim Against Me on My Car Insurance?

Someone has put a claim in against me for damages, for an accident I know nothing about. It is from early 2010 and has been going on since then. I have been contesting it on the grounds I have not been involved in an incident, however the third party solicitors have issued County Court proceedings against me. My insurance company are saying they are putting in a defence and have provided a barrister. I am really annoyed with this as I know I haven't been in an accident. I could understand if maybe they were claiming I clipped them and I had done it without realising but they are claiming for an accident which I have no knowledge of! I have attended the Magistrate's Court hearing and although I pleaded not guilty I have been found guilty on the grounds that for the time and date of the accident I have no alibi, witness or other evidence to support my whereabouts. The other party has an independent witness who works for the same company and alleges she could recognise my car but not me as a driver. Mag court fined me and gave me 6 points on my licence. I am not working (and not in receipt of any benefits) and this CC claim amounts to 5k! How would I pay a sum like this??? Or would my insurance company pay out if I was found to be at fault ???

I heard that if you have a driver license at 16 years old but you DON'T buy a car, which means you don't buy a car or drive a car or anything like that for 3 or 4 years, your car insurance will be deducted. So I have a couple of questions: 1. Is the statement above correct for California? 2. If #1 is wrong, then if I buy a car but don't drive it, will the money still be deducted after 3 or 4 years? 2. Is there any other ways to lower money spending on car insurance? 3. I also heard that you can combine your driver license with one of family members, but the money will be raised up a little bit. Is this true? And how can I combine my license to other family member?""

Can an Insurance company still be held liable for the after affects of a car wreck?

Any advice is greatly appreciated. My problem is this, In July 2007 A man in a huge truck with a trailer hinge back up out from a parking space, it I saw him and the only thing I could at the time is speed up so he would not hit the middle of my car. He ended up hitting the side bumper and ripped it off. I have A 1999 Cryshler Sebring. It truely was a hard hit. Well the man's insurance did pay to fix the bumper, but now everything keeps going wrong. I did mention it to the person at the shop where we had arranged for the repair. I asked to please give me an estimated how much it would cost to fix it. When the time came, She did not do so and when I asked the lady she gave me a look like there is really something wrong with my car. I give two guys a ride to the bus so they do not have to walk the mile or so and they can attest that my car was running smooth. So many things one after another have gone wrong. I have put over 700.00 and still more problems. So my question is what do you think my chances are If I take it to the manufactor and they will rule in my favor. The Insurance Co-ordinator says if they say it was from the accident then they will pay for it. Straight from the start right after the accident my car kept dyeing out, so I had to drive it like a standard car with my feet on the gas and brake at the same time. So in the end , last I have heard there is a short somewhere so I took it to Spitfire and place that specializes in electrical problems and he told me my computer is bad. First of all the things my battery kept dyeing out, my car would not start up in the mornings,I took it to Auto zone and my battery was fat, swollen no good. Bought a new one, then I took it to a man at midas , he said I needed a valve cover gasket and he showed me my spark plugs we filled with oil, fixed that. Now Midas ran a scan and said I had either a bad map sensor or a short. Changed the map sensor the car is still barely running, so then another place said it was a short but had it for two weeks and could not find the short . I would like to know , if the guys Insurance is still on the hook for all the problems I have had with the car since the accident. Now I give these two guys a ride from work each day and they knew there was nothing wrong with my car before the accident. What is the best thing I can do. Many thanks , Sylvia""

Rear Ended - Can I demand insurance?

I was in an accident last month in my brand new Volvo (not even a month old!). I was rear-ended, while I was at a stop sign. Damage is to the rear bumper, pretty bad, looks horrible...especially for a new car! No one was hurt, just shaken! We did not immediately file a police report. We exchanged information, and the the person who hit me told me that they would pay for my repairs out of pocket, and that they didn't want to get the police or insurance involved. We conversed on the phone for a few days, and they seemed like everything was going great, and I was supposed to meet them at their friends auto body shop for the repairs...long story short...they never showed. Bad part now is, I never got their insurance information, just license plate, DL, addresses(basically everything BUT insurance). That same day, I went to the police station and filed a delayed police report. Later that week, I went and got 3 different estimates, and the damage averages out to about $900. I contacted a friend of mine, who is a police officer, and they stated that I can issue a summons to the person who hit me for careless driving, and I will have to go to court. This is basically to show them that I'm not messing around. All I want is my BRAND NEW car fixed!!! I'm NOT going through my insurance because my deductible is $1,000, and the damage is less...not only that...it wasn't my fault! My insurance company advised me to have person who hit me's insurance take care of everything, at no cost to me. Here's what I need to find out...Can I send the person a demand letter, basically stating that I want them to have their insurance take care of everything? I have tried to call them, and they send me to voice mail, so reasoning is not an option any more. I don't really know how to go about this?! I want to try this on my own, and not get an attorney involved. I just want to tell them that if they fix my car, I will drop summons and further proceedings (like small-claims court, which I WILL sue for additional $$ for dealing with all this). But, what if they don't have the money? I have no idea what to do. I live in NJ, hope someone can help!""

Question with progressive insurance?

Ok heres the deal. Last September we were backing out of our driveway and bumped into our neighbors drivers door on his late 80's mazda mx3. It caused a little dent in his car and just a tiny scratch on our car. We agreed that we will just handle it outside of insurance once spring came. Now that the snow finally melted here, he left a note on our door saying he wants payment in full in 7 days or he will report to our insurance. My question is, progressive told us they put it under property damage so there is no deductible but what will this do to our rates if anything? Thank You""

Why don't health insurance companies compete on price like car insurance companies?

I was watching TV (something I rarely do) this weekend, and I noticed a fair number of car insurance commercials from various companies. They were touting their high level of service and low prices, and urging consumers to investigate and switch to their company. How come this doesn't appear to happen with health insurance? Is it because employers, rather than the actual people insured, shop for insurance in many cases? Is it because auto insurers are allowed to compete more freely across state borders? Are the basic expectations different when it comes to health insurance? Or, does competition already exist in the health insurance industry but the product is so much more expensive no matter what? Serious answers appreciated. Thanks.""

Is GEICO auto insurance tougher (more expensive) than Progressive if you have an at fault accident?

I have one at fault accident on my record. It was a rear-end collision and it is a 2 pt. accident in California. I was shopping for new insurance. I made this statement about the at fault accident when filling out the forms for a quote online. At first GEICO the GEICO rates were looking way better than Progressive or other insurance companies so I thought I'd go with them. But when I went to go pay online, they did one last DMV record check, and came back with a higher rate. Even though I had stated the accident in the form previously. They waited to verify this at the very end and not earlier which I found annoying--they had my driver's licence earlier in the application process, so why wait till the very end! When filling out the Progressive quote forms, I also stated the info about my accident where asked. At the end, the form still considered me a Good Driver and the quote was much cheaper than Progressive. I went to pay and it did not recalculate my quote after a DMV check like GEICO did. I paid and am wondering if I am going to hear back from them saying I need to pay more. But I gave them all the info and I do now have a policy. So it appears that GEICO is tougher when it comes to having an accident, and Progressive doesn't let one at fault accident ruin a good driver discount? Does anyone have experience with this?""

He says when the person you have insurance on dies you get a lot of money. I was just wondering if anyone on here knows how this works? Do I need the persons permission or what information do I need from them? I was thinking of getting insurance on old people that live in a retirement home a block from where I live and get rich out of it. I know some of you will think I am sick but I wouldn't mind if someone had insurance on me when I am older. So how can I go about doing this and what information do I need on the person?

USAA auto-insurance discounts?

What cars are best to have for the lowest insurance?

I am 21, and I am rather sick of catching the bus everywhere lol, especially this past winter. I know my insurance is going to be high, It's also pretty hard to keep a job since many buses stop running around 9pm. My friend told me any time after May is a good time to buy a car because most people already got their refunds. I am willing to take out a loan if a new/newer car is the best to go with since I have pretty decent credit (724 Experian). If I have a car I could work and go to school more easily. What year, make, model, etc. I also want to save on gas. For the new cars, I would like the Chevy Volt, the Ford Fiesta, Honda Civic (hybrid if possible), or the toyota prius (hybrid maybe). For used, I am not sure since I don't know what year to look in, but I was looking at the Honda civic, toyota prius, and the mazda mazda6. I also don't know if foreign cars would raise the premium. I read that if you are getting a car around 10 years old, only buy honda or toyota cars. Also should I look into mechanical breakdown insurance and/or should I get a warranty for the car along with the auto insurance? How much do they cost? Thanks.""

Question about pregnancy insurance?

My husband and I plan on trying for our 3rd child sometime around August/September. For our first child, we were eligible for Medicaid and for our second we were on Tricare since my husband was deployed. However, right now I'm the only one who is uninsured. My husband can go to the VA Hospital anytime he needs to and my kids are on State insurance. We really don't want to get some type of family insurance since everyone besides me is all taken care of. So my question is: Is there some type of insurance that covers pregnancy that I could just sign up for? I decided to come here before really starting my research on the off-chance someone here is on one/knows of one. Since a lot of insurances would say a pregnancy was a pre-existing condition and not cover me, I want to be on it before we even start trying. Anyway, thanks!""

Should I get a full coverage insurance on a rental car?

I have to rent a car for 2 weeks for business. Supposely, the cost should be reimbursed to me by a company after the assingment is done. Not sure if I can truly trust that.

Is it possible to upgrade car insurance with an ongoing claim?

Hello, I am a 19 year old male living in England. I had an accident around 2 months ago in my car of which I am the main driver and owner (no dispute here). I have been ensured by a solicitor friend that the crash was not my fault as the other party pulled out in front of me. However, the other party is still disputing liability and I have been told by my insurance that the case could take upwards of 10 weeks. I have a job opportunity starting in 1 week exactly as a delivery driver. I will technically be self-employed, so will have to provide my own business insurance. My question is: is it at all possible to upgrade my insurance to business cover while the claim is still ongoing? If this is possible, would it be allowed on the basis that I would be considered liable for this accident (at least in the short run) and thus be charged a an extortionate amount? Thanks in advance.""

I work freelance and I am looking into getting a health care plan. I haven't had medical insurance since elementary school but now that I'm approaching mid 20s, I wanted to prepare for the emergency, the 'just-in-case' situation. My problem is that I have a very negative impression on the insurance business and health care itself. I've gone to health clinic from a floating rib and I paid $300 to be told that I need to get tylenol LOL My relatives and friend went through some misdiagnose, multiple exams and charges. Some friends go through such a bull5hit time - one friend was charged $500 to borrow a blanket in the waiting room at a health care clinic and all she had to do was make a call and complain to cancel the full amount. We were baffled So.. they get paid $500 for lending a blanket? They take the $500 away if we complain? It's like complaining at a restaurant LOL!!! I maybe ignorant, but it makes me so upset to see people without insurance having such a hard time affording health care. Health care and insurance makes me feel like I'm giving into a manipulative scam - like buying a $120 clothing that only costs $5 to make.

Got a ticket for 30 over and have American Fam. Ins. 1st speeding ticket. Any insight on rate increase?

Aim a 23 year old male & this is my first ticket for speeding technically (I got a ticket 6 years ago for speeding but it was dismissed in court). I also totaled a car 7 years ago but that seems to be irrelevant now (I would think). I was sighted for going 75 MPH in a 45 MPH on interstate 670 in Columbus, Ohio (45 due to construction not in progress so fine was not doubled). The office stated to me that the traffic flow was moving well above the posted speed limit however I was moving a bit faster than the flow. My first question is should I take this to court and fight it (also hope the officer does not show) If the traffic flow was moving considerably over the posted limit then why wasnt any of the people ahead of my pulled over? Does anyone think this will stand in court or do you think the fact that I was going 30 over pretty much kill my defense? Also (since I believe I will have to pay) how much do you think my insurance rates will increase? Like I said I am a 23 year old male with 1 prior speeding ticket that was dismissed in court 6 years ago, totaled a car 7 years ago and received a ticket almost 3 years ago for peeling and squealing (which was BS). Any insight is helpful and thank you all for taking time to read my post and respond it means a lot.""
