“Representing Indian women has been such a joy. Ninety-nine per cent of the people who recognise me and come up to me are women of colour, and that’s the best feeling because they’re so excited for me.”

🖤A s t e r o i d ⁕ P a n t h e r a ⁕4 1 9 8🖤(through the signs and degrees) ~~~~~~~~~~~ Y o u r ⁕ p r e d a t o r y ⁕ e n e r g y ~~~~~~~~~~~

A warrior, a schemer, a predator. Smooth and calculated movements, planning how to kill you in complete silence. The black panther doesn't show off their plan, they only show you their claws.

🖤🐾

The panther is part of the leopard family but it's easily identified because of its black mantle. Usually outcasted due to this difference, they face more difficulties in their habitat as they can't hide so well like others leopards (a black spot is easily identified by potential preys). They take the harder route, panthers also love to jump from tree to tree to assess the situation from a higher perspective. Because of those challenges, they know how to get a better understanding of their environments and know how to use it to their advantage

🖤 M y ⁕ i n t e r p r e t a t i o n :

In my opinion, Asteroid Panthera (4198) in a birth chart shows you:

⁕ How you scheme to catch your target ⁕ How you fight to gain respect ⁕ Your fighting temperament

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

The special-0 degrees : They are THE panther🖤. Surrounded by a mysterious but fiery aura. They have qualities that resembles the ones of these felines. Could love to climb or run as a sport. Enjoy risky activities cause they crave that adrenaline rush 🔥. They could even have physical traits resembling those of a panther, like a feline type of appeal (especially if you have this asteroid in 1st house and 0°). Dominant personalities. Get easily involved in fights lol. They have a big ego and have a need to show their potential to everyone, cause they really crave recognition. Possessive but very caring. Put others needs first, cause this way they feel they're the provider and hold the power.

Celebs examples of Panthera at 0°: Simone Ashley, Jennifer Lawrence, the Weeknd, Beyoncé, Jamie Campbell Bower, Johnny Depp

Aries / 1-13-25 degrees : Straight to the point, leaving their mark boldly 💥. Quick, harsh movements. Impulsive if triggered. Experts of both mental and physical aggression because of their experience. They never hold back to new scary trials, cause they're fearless. Incredible strategy skills, you make It looks like you come from the army lol (maybe you do!). But even if they create different plans they usually stick to one plan until the end, yes, even if it means dying on the battelfield (sometimes being fearless can make you blind to danger). Kings/queens of the territory. Insatiable warriors. Strike first, strike hard, no mercy.

Celebs examples: Amita Suman, Angelina Jolie, Charlize Theron, Emilia Clarke, Uma Thurman, Meryl Streep

Taurus / 2-14-26 degrees : Waiting in the lair for the food to come lol🍗. Not an obvious striker. Slow but steady, plan to trap their prey with their sensuality. Da 'lazy' panther: they don't even bother to plan or think about catching their prey, they get It like this 👏. Sometimes they may appear superficial or dumb, but well, it's part of their stategy 😉. Everyone wants them because they look at them as the perfect throphy and these natives know this very well as they have a high sense of self-worth. They're silent most of the times cause they're relaxing knowing they got ya... "why you feeling ✨ jittery✨darling, i'm here with you...oh sweetie by the way, did you buy that tiara of diamonds i told you i really liked?" 👀. So pretty It hurts...yeah, hitting your self-esteem to make you fall at their feet 😏

Celebs examples: Marylin Monroe, Monica Bellucci, Elizabeth Taylor, Keanu Reeves, Naomi Campbell, Grace Jones

Gemini / 3-15-27 degrees : Too fast you can't keep up 🌪️. You won't see them coming in any way. They are like a rap song, you're vibing until you realize the words they're speaking 😶. Funny queens/kings that kill you with their sense of humour. Rolling eyes at you, putting into discussion your crafting level as their strategy to make you feel worthless. They have beautiful nails/claws (ngl they really do). These mfk are so freaking versatile and well-rounded, they can do anything... No one knows as many things as they do. The real street smart. They make you think you dodged them but they have already 1827829292 other plans on how they could catch you, you have no escape sorrynotsorry 👋

Celebs examples: Rihanna, Beyoncé, Jamie Dornan

Cancer / 4-16-28 degrees : Baby panthers everyones wanna protect 🥺, until you realize you should have protected yourself from them lol. So frail they could break and cut you with one of their heart's sharp broken pieces. Jumping on you by jumping on your emotions. Changing moods 24/7 to confuse you even further. Shiny deeply emotional eyes on all the time. They rarely leave their lair but when they do, you know it's trouble (cause they reached an extreme). Like the moon, they catch your attention by making themselves appear all alone, until you realize they were always in their comfortable spot and only waiting for you to get trapped by the immense darkness around. 🌚

Celebs examples: Lily Rose Depp, Chadwick Boseman

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Leo / 5-17-29 degrees : Grumpy cats that want it all *cute umpf sound*😾. Get out of their ways to catch their prey. Hella talented. Work so freaking hard to improve their skills you'll see them making a whole choreography while hunting. They catch so many people's attentions. Now they use that crowd as a fortress with no exits for their prey to escape 😘. But hurt their ego and they can take a looot of time to get back to hunting with some pride. They're the best at taking care of their people, they share the food (keep the best part for themselves tho lmaoo) and they're protective towards their loved ones. Truly fighters with a biig heart and of course they have a *dramatic showy hunting style* 💃

Celebs examples: Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong'o, Helena Bonham Carter

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Virgo / 6-18 degrees : Peekaboo from da green bush 😶‍🌫️. Panthers with a green thumb for growing detailed organized plans. Perfectionist predators. Calculate every millimeters, every possible outcome, to the point of overthinking It all and not even starting the plan lol. Intelligent and adaptable, quick learners. Can make you think they're weak with their bodily constitution and shy because they don't speak much. Truth is, they're studying you and their surroundings. Make the best advisors, cause they can see what's missing from the bigger picture and they usually don't initiate the hunt. Stay physically behind others' backs but are mentally ages ahead. Outsmart everyone in the end (if in good form and with their doubtful part of the brain shut lol)

Celebs examples: Halle Berry, Winona Ryder

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Libra / 7-19 degrees : Graceful panthers, so poised they resemble perfect statues. And they make you believe they are that harmless...but careful not to fall for it 👀. These people don't aim directly to their prey, they get to it through others (the type to not dirty their hands lol). The glue that keeps the pack intact. They're loved by everyone, gentle smiles, kind gestures, they make sure they are pleasant to be around . Keep their outward persona all in check, constantly clean and polish their shiny fur 💅. Balanced, not too risky in their moves, they always test the waters first and adapt to the responses they get. Choose their words carefully to hit the weakest spot. Kill their prey with kindness and charisma, then offer them dessert to not feel guilty 🙃🍰

Celebs examples: Jamie Campbell Bower, Vincent Cassel, Zoe Kravitz

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Scorpio / 8-20 degrees : The arm reacher distance. No, they don't have the COVID, they have the INTIMIDATION. No one wants to mess up with them. They have the blackest and thickest and shiniest fur of them all. But they rarely show their powerful moves, all they got are rumors spreading from people that SAW. If some other naive panther try to provoke these natives out of fun, they got to be prepared to suffer from Scorpio panther's psychotic fun .This is how they get the people to respect them out of fear. Sneaky and untreceable, they're the best at erasing their fingerprints. Get into their prey's mind. Predicting every little action and elaborating a plan on it. They don't like to strike right away, but prefers to take their time with it cause they enjoy playing and see their prey's reactions to their little scary games 😈. Very private and jealous, won't share their prey with anyone.

Celebs examples: Darkota Johnson, Carrie-Anne Moss

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Sagittarius / 9-21 degrees : Can't stay still a sec. Always get in the way of other's people lol. Two panthers are fighting for the throne? Lemme jump in real quick and make a showstopper mooove 🤸‍♀️ (by risking their lives..yeah 🤦‍♀️). *everybody gets mad (but still laugh)*. "weee everybody sorry, i thought it was match break! I am the lady holding the round sign ya know thisss". Makes mistakes but knows how to crack a joke on them. They don't usually attack intentionally, as they don't really stand cruel actions. But they could kill by mistake cause they take up so much space and are very energetic, you get in their way, you dead😂. Their big presence ,easygoing nature and funny/entertaining behaviour win people's hearts (and their prey's too 👀)

Celebs examples: Michelle Yeoh, Taylor Swift, Scarlett Johannson, Lena Headey, Al Pacino, Simone Ashley

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Capricorn / 10-22 degrees : Why so serious? 🤡 These people have gone through hell and back, no surprise they become the Devil. They tried them all, the bad, neutral and good strategies, they got a baggage of experience that could have either made or broken them. Always disappointed with others. Wise with a mind of a genius, but if this trait of them is neglected by people, the lack of respect could trigger them to suppress their emotions and use this detachment to manipulate others' feelings pretty well. Calm and premedited actions. They take time to kill their prey, they wanna consume them till they can't get it anymore and wanna hear them begging to give them that feeling of respect they didn't get before. Natives that people can consider too strict/inflexible (almost like tirants) if they get to rule as King/Queens panthers. (but they're just good people to whom bad things happened 🥺, lemme give you a hug 🤗)

Celebs examples: Heath Ledger, Zhang Zi-Yi, Grace Kelly, Alan Rickman, Jennifer Lawrence, Maggie Q, The Weeknd, Audrey Hepburn, Alexa Demie, Bruce Lee, Kristen Stewart

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Aquarius / 11-23 degrees : Loner panthers that don't give a heck of getting to the Queen/King's panther's throne cause they're already building one of their own 😎. Making their own rules, getting their own land, initiating a whole new way of living. And then people see how cool and innovative their way is, and how strong they are to have built all of their empire alone, so they get easily influenced, and individually choose to become their plebs. And this is how they sterminate all their preys at once lmaoo. Unpredictable actions, have unique ways to hunt that may seem weird to people, but they're not afraid to show them by being themselves. This silent confidence can only gives more appreciation and genuine respect to the natives. Can get quite a lot of controversial stares too from close-minded people, but again, they just don't care 😇

Celebs examples: Zendaya, Joaquin Phoenix, Lana Del Rey, Keira Knightley, Anya-Taylor Joy

⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕⁓⁕

Pisces / 12-24 degrees : The forgetful predator and utopian leader. Create some fantastic plan than only can exist in an imaginary world cause gravity cannot bend to these native's thoughts unfortunately lol...or maybe it does cause they're manifestation king/queens hehe✨ . But everyone is obsessed with them even if they make a lot of mistakes. People are very very confused by these natives and Pisces panthers take this to their advantage. Manifesting their prey like this 👏...but then they don't feel like attacking them lmao... or coff coff... they were sleeping and missed it 😆. Chill around, but cannot not getting involved in the drama cause they're curious by nature. And then the drama (and so the prey too) hunts them, trying to switch the roles, giving them even more opportunities to catch what they want. Not the best at striking to the front, but will hunt you in your dreams.

Celebs examples: Kim Kardashian, Jenna Ortega, Michelle Pfeiffer, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Michael Jackson, Eva Green, Johnny Depp, Maisie Williams

MADISON

The city's cacophony beneath the hotel window and Madison's chants of David's name filled her ears. The nailed oak of the five-star hotel bed frame didn't bang against the wall in time to his hips, but Madison's nails alternated between his back and the Frette sheets like she'd ascend somewhere astral if she let go. She squeezed her eyes shut, losing the deep mocha brown of his gaze in favor of the guttural moan she released. The tradeoff was worthy of either a categorical offense or verbal praise to whomever occupied the room next door. David swallowed her voice in a wet kiss. 

As he sank deeper, his weight spread her thighs wide and she gasped at the stretch. The grunts he left on her lips matched the rhythm of her heartbeat as the couple ground together in desperate sex. 

When David groaned loudly into the side of Madison's neck, fists clutching the pillows on either side of her head, she knew he was close. She locked her legs around his back and urged his undoing with whispered encouragement. Seconds after, she was dragging her nails down his back until the trembling in her thighs ceased.

David collapsed on top of her, and she welcomed the closeness. They'd needed it. Madison had hardly caught her breath before she was cupping his face in her hands and kissing him with so much intensity she debated another round. She moaned as he slowly sucked on her bottom lip, treasuring the seconds that were going by far too quickly. She caught a glimpse of the time on the digital clock, and pouted as she pulled away from David’s tempting warmth.

"We have to get going," she whispered as his mouth traveled down her chin.

"We still got time," he replied as he interlocked their hands, his lips’ descension threatening to endure the goosebumps on her skin. Madison willed herself to float back down to reality. 

"Not if we hit traffic." 

It was Sunday; the church-n-brunch rush would be excruciating. Madison knew getting back to their townhome would take an extra hour if they weren't careful. David sighed against her skin, and she could tell he was considering the inconvenience. "Fine," he relented and rolled off of her.

Madison kissed his cheek and then stiffly made her way out of the tangled sheets, and he chuckled at her careful steps toward the bathroom. "You good?" he asked. 

Madison rolled her eyes and chuckled. A month without Yin yoga had her body tighter than usual. "Yeah, I'm good. I'm gonna take a shower." 

"Cool."

She heard the T.V. click on and he called over a sports' broadcast rerun, "You know we don't have to check out till twelve, right? Wanna order some room service? They have those chocolate croissants you like."

"I don't think I should keep my folks waiting," Madison said as she stood in the mirror, wrapping dark twists into a bun atop her head. "We were supposed to get the kids last night."

"They said they didn't mind watching them for an extra day," David reminded, but she shook her head.

"I know, but if we don’t get there early, my mom will want us to stay for dinner, and I have to get some prep work done for clients tomorrow,” Madison said as she rummaged through her green sleepaway bag in search of another pair of panties. Coming up empty, she sighed, “Dammit.” Her and David’s impromptu romp after an early dinner at Steel Pier had cost her an extra shower and pair of Fenty. Those undergarments were flung somewhere in the room after they left the casino three hundred dollars richer and sensuous celebration was inevitable once the door closed.

Madison could just hear her wanderlusting younger cousin, Javina, reminding her, You can never pack too many panties. Usually Madison would regard the comment with a flippant hand, certain she was always prepared, but she was right this time. 

David asked what was wrong, and Madison hung her head outside the doorframe and smirked at her husband. “I’m gonna have to go commando after our trysts all over the city. Thanks a lot.” 

“Those first two were on you. It’s gonna be another one if you don’t stop looking at me like that.”

“I was just following doctor’s orders,” Madison shrugged and giggled. Quite literally, their therapist, Dr. Gina, recommended that they take a trip for a weekend. 

“No kids, just you two. All work and no play is what lands you back in this situation. You two still deserve time to bond with each other,” she advised them.

Madison could admit that she and David were borderline workaholics. Becoming parents at twenty-two kicked their structural upbringings into high-gear. She soothed her mother’s disappointment by putting her Bachelor’s degree in finance to good use when Zoey turned six months. David made it his mission to prove he could still maintain his path toward government work while balancing new fatherhood. 

Their early work ethic had created twenty-nine-year-olds who made tornado winds with how fast they moved about jobs, home, and jobs again. Dr. Gina made them realize their inability to commit to alone time outside of the house was taking a toll on the marriage. They finally buckled down and planned an eventful trip that included great food, cute photo booth pictures Madison couldn’t wait to frame, and enough fucking to make up for the next two months. 

“Uh-huh,” David chuckled. “I’m not complaining. She was right. Shit, how much we were going, we might mess around and bring home a third Daniels.” 

Madison’s grin wavered awkwardly, and she sighed. "Well, thank God we only have our two right now.”

"Thank God?" 

Madison watched David’s face morph into confusion. She couldn't ignore the heat at the tips of her ears as she shifted her weight on her feet and remained silent. He wasn't letting her off the hook, though. "What's that supposed to mean?"

She ignored the urge to pause the conversation until she finished showering, because she knew once something hit David’s ear just right, his tendency to complete their talk would outweigh her need for space and brief avoidance. 

“Dr. Gina said we shouldn't be talking about that on this trip."

"That was only a suggestion," David grumbled from the bed. "We can talk about anything we want to talk about."

Madison exhaled. Yes, future family planning had been a topic of discussion in and out of Dr. Gina’s office, but part of their homework this time was to avoid topics of stress, and use the trip to get reacquainted with fun. Talking about having another baby made her blood pressure spike. 

Madison looked at her husband, whose expression was far from the ecstasy she'd seen on it only minutes before. She probably didn't look much different. She replied, "Well...I told you I didn't want to talk about that this weekend."

"Why not?" David swung his legs over the side of the bed. Leaning his weight onto his knees, he stared at her. "I can't get you to talk about it at home either, so when are we gonna talk about it?"

Madison crossed her arms. "I'm not saying we aren't ever going to. But, I mean, damn, can Xavier get through Kindergarten first?"

"Last year, you said let's wait until he's in preschool. He graduated two weeks ago!"

"So? What's so wrong with waiting?"

"Nothing would be wrong if you didn't keep changing the damn goalpost, Madison."

"David-!" Madison closed her eyes and inhaled. This wasn’t supposed to be how the trip ended. They weren't supposed to be fighting. They looked even crazier doing it naked. They'd just spent three days at a sky-high hotel eating some of Jersey's finest cuisines. They went to a comedy show and even took a boat ride around the harbor, sipping champagne at sunset. It had been a perfect getaway, and then David had to sully it by mentioning the expansion of their family. 

"I'm gonna go take a shower," she quietly repeated and retreated into the bathroom, silently brushing her teeth and taking a ten-minute shower.

Wiping the condensation from the mirror, she studied her reflection. As a wife, mother of two, a financial advisor at one of the largest national banking companies, with clear skin and an affinity for freshly done braids every four months, Madison wondered what was wrong with what they had now. Wasn't it enough? Maybe David didn't think she was enough. Maybe she was being crazy. Her friends and family always told her she worried too much.

Digging around her toiletry bag, she found her birth control case beneath a bottle of Aleve and facial wipes. After popping one into her mouth and guzzling it down with water from the faucet, Madison exited the bathroom, naked, sore, and ticked.

David was still propped up against the headboard. The frustrated line between his eyebrows were but a light indention, so Madison could tell he was no longer pissed, but his frown remained as he flipped through channels. She sat on the edge of the bed and moisturized without even opening her mouth to breathe. When she heard David sigh behind her and the volume on the T.V. decrease, she looked over her shoulder and regarded his solemn expression with patience. 

"Hey, look. My bad. We don't have to end on this note,” he apologized and gestured for her to come to his arms. Madison smiled softly and climbed over to him. He pulled her to his chest. “You’re right, we can talk about it later. I want to go back to Dr. Gina with a good report. I need to tell her we had time to try out that new position. By the way, we’re doing that again whenever we get the chance.”

Madison laughed and lightly slapped his chest at the mention of position number nine on Allure’s latest issue.  

“You’re laughing, but I’m serious,” he replied though he chuckled as well. “You’re a bomb ass woman and you puttin’ it down like that? You can’t expect me not to want to have a whole basketball team of babies with you.”

Madison cupped his cheek and rubbed the soft, shaved skin with her thumb. “I understand what you’re saying, and I know we need to talk about it. I just need a little more time, okay?”

David nodded and they kissed as a truce. He’d get his conversation and she’d get her time, but the tiny voice in the back of her mind wondered just how much more he was willing to sit for before he broke. 

JAVINA

Javina studied herself in the front camera of her phone. Looking picturesque in Santorini-darkened skin, butterfly locs, and Valentino sunglasses, she pressed the Instagram LIVE button. She pretended to bother with her hair and checked her lipstick. Then, she popped back and gasped.

"Oh, my gosh, I didn't even realize I was recording!" she giggled. "Hey, my flight knights! As you can see, I'm at the airport." She flipped the screen to uphold a spacious airport decked out in the usual terminals and eateries. She put the camera back on herself. "I'm just getting back from Santorini, Greece and y'all? It was amazing! The ocean was crystal blue, and the food was so good! I’mma show y’all everywhere I went, but later 'cause I am tired, okay? This jet lag life is real. Y'all can see I still have my travel pillow on! I'm gonna head home and get some rest. Till then, bites and flights!"

Javina put on one more wide smile before shutting the LIVE off. Rolling her neck, she let it crack before shimmying her shoulders to let the release go throughout her entire body. She hadn't been lying about being tired. A fourteen-hour flight was so much on the body–she would need a spa day just to recover. She went to baggage claim and waited to see her cyan blue vintage suitcase. It was one of her most prized possessions and was featured in many of her Instagram reels and TikToks. As her stand-in travel buddy, she never felt too lonely on solo trips when she had that bag.

Her phone buzzed in her hand. It was a call from Lionel, her landlord, and she rolled her eyes. That man was constantly messaging about something; she needed to file a harassment claim. Javina ignored the notification and went to her Uber app to request a ride back to her Orlando apartment.

She'd only been gone for a week, but she was sure the first thing she'd be met with was the drooping and dramatic bodies of her Monstera plants. They were so needy and clearly too bougie to be watered by a DIY glass bottle method. She'd used a Sauvignon blanc bottle and everything! Javina would fuss as she tenderly took to their leaves and re-fed them. They'd listen to her sing an off-key Mariah Carey tune as she unpacked, and by morning, they'd be good as new.

When she saw her suitcase on the carousel, she snatched it before she could miss it-which had happened more times before than she was willing to count. Once, during one of her early traveling days, she'd shut out the sound of snickers as she scurried her bag for about half the carousel. Literally, not a single person came to her aid. All that after a bad trip in Canada made her want to run through a wall. But she'd learned her lesson; go for the bag before it passes you. Those two seconds after were a crucial line between expertise and embarrassment.

With her metaphorical security blanket in her clutch and an Uber ride on the way, she opened her group chat with her older sisters, Robyn and Madison.

Javina:

Made it back from Santorini! Y'all have to come with me next time 😍

Maddikins:

glad you made it back safe!

Javina:

How are my niece and nephew?

Maddikins:

Great and can't wait to see what gift you brought back for them lol

Javina:

I got them nothing! 😤 They should love me for me!

Maddikins:

LOL maybe when they're passed ten. Right now u r the rich auntie who flies to all the best places and brings back the coolest things

Javina:

FINE I'll keep that title

Rob-Rob:

Hey, happy you had a good time. Get to your place safe. You know those ride services are full of creeps

Javina:

I'll be fine

Neglectful glances upward as she preoccupied her attention with her phone led to a hard collision with something too soft to be a wall.

"I'm so sorry—,” Her eyes traveled up the forest green jacket sleeve and feathers of an angel wing tattoo peeking out the collar. Familiar chestnut-brown eyes looked back at her beneath a snapback brim. "Oh...shit–Asaad?"

"Hey..." He lowered a phone from his ear, his eyes widening like she was the last person he expected to see. "Hey, Veen."

"Hey."

His eyes swept over her and he gestured toward her. "Long time no see-,"

Javina scoffed and affably shook her head. "Oh, cut the crap, Asaad. We slept together two months ago." 

He told the person on the other line he would call them back and tucked the phone in his pocket. "I know, but you made it clear that would be the last time, and we haven't spoken since then, so..." he shrugged. "What did you expect?"

"Not for you to look at me like a deer caught in headlights! Come here." She opened her arms, and he crossed the space to envelop her in his arms. After she'd hugged him long enough to get a whiff of his Tom Ford cologne, she gave him some distance back. "You heading in or heading out?

"Heading in. I have a couple of Miami clients."

Javina lifted a brow knowingly. "Didn't want to make the drive?"

"Hell nah."

They chuckled. Asaad never did like long car rides, even though a fourteen-hour road trip down the eastern coast wasn't long to Javina. She'd been on much longer drives before. She tapped his elbow with her French-tipped nails and said, "Well, I don't wanna hold you. It was nice seeing you."

"Yeah, you, too."

When he didn't stop looking at her, she awkwardly broke their gaze and said, "Yeah, well, uh...bye."

"Hey." His fingers touched her elbow this time. "If you're gonna be in the city for a bit...you wanna grab a bite of food or something? I have a car."

Javina expected to hear an answer as soon as her lips parted, but nothing came immediately. She rubbed them together and sighed. "I don't think that's a good idea."

She caught the crestfallen look on his face before it sharpened into casualness. "That's cool. Nice bumping into you—literally."

Javina snickered and let him walk off first in the opposite direction before she started moving again. Her stomach rumbled and tightened with nausea. Her heart cracked a little, too. She pulled the small water bottle they offered her on the plane and swallowed the remnants as her pace quickened. Her Uber driver wouldn't be there for another ten minutes, but she had to get outside for some fresh air.

She would not hyperventilate; for what? The chance encounter had gone as best as it could under the circumstances. All Asaad was, was a boy toy, someone to have a little fun with. She unsnapped the buckles of her olive green denim overalls and let the straps hang at her waist. There, she could move her shoulders, which meant she could expand her lungs, and then she could breathe better.

You're not trapped, you're okay. You just got off a fourteen hour plane ride! Don't let that ruffle you. Breathe. She followed her own orders and felt the brisk rhythm of her heart begin slowing.

Javina had her earphones on the entire ride back to her apartment, playing mindful meditation music to re-center. She was never this rude to drivers, not saying a word. She'd usually be the one sparking up a conversation, curious to what drew them to jobs in transportation or of their favorite places in the city. Nevertheless, the man behind the wheel couldn’t look more disinterested. She was grateful for that today. She traveled to get away from anxiety, not to crash-land into it as soon as she returned home.

When she saw the red brick of her apartment building getting closer, she sighed with relief. Finally, she could mind her plants, shower, and dive into her bed, the safety of her pillows like a siren song. The driver got her bag from the trunk and didn't smile when she thanked him. Instead, he grunted in response, "Have a good one," and was on his way.

Javina waited impatiently for the elevator to come down to the lobby and groaned loudly at the even longer journey up to the seventh floor. Her room was down the hall and to the immediate left. She liked being on the corner; guests hardly ever missed her room. There'd been a couple of too-much-fun-with-friends nights where she'd praised God the door was so close. Breaking the seal before you got home was always bad.

The reprieve on her face as she neared her safe space transformed into horror once she reached the door. A pale yellow piece of paper was taped at eye level.

An eviction notice.

ROBYN

Robyn checked the burgundy acrylic of her fingernail when she tapped the last computer key of the day. When no cracks were visible, she reminded herself not to vent her frustrations onto her devices. She checked the time on screen: six forty-five already. Late evenings weren't uncommon during the beginning of the school year, but her therapist advised that if she didn't start taking more time for herself, her body would shut down before her computer did.

But hell, Dr. Thea didn't know how much responsibility a magnet school required–or how expensive rent had gotten in Baltimore. Robyn's two-bedroom apartment wouldn't stand a chance with the average eight-hour shift as a program coordinator, so her therapist would have to understand that the extra pocket money she earned working past her four-thirty stop time would have to be an exception.

Robyn packed up her work bag and stretched so far back in her chair that it creaked. She'd have to request a new one soon–having back problems at thirty-three sounded like another expense she didn't have the funds to cover. She rifled through her desk drawer for a Tylenol and popped it into her mouth. Finally, switching off her lamp, she welcomed the chemical smell of freshly mopped hallways as she exited her office.

Passing by the Vice Principal's office, she was surprised to see Darius still at his desk. Usually, he'd be the one knocking on Robyn's door and telling her to go home. But, instead, he looked hard at work on something, the wrinkles on his forehead a telltale sign that the was there much longer than he would've liked. Robyn rapped her knuckles on the door.

"Hey, Darius, you're still here? I thought you would've left before me."

Without looking up from his computer, he responded, "Hey, Rob. Yeah, I know. I got this file on a kid with behavioral issues. His parents insist he'll do better at a magnet school. Not too sure about it."

Robyn walked inside and to his side, peering down at a manila folder and several documents. "What type of behavioral problems?"

Leaning his chin on an open palm, Darius said through his hand, "Oh, the usual types we don't accept–fighting, cursing, talking back to teachers. But the parents think he just needs a creative outlet. Says he loves to write poetry."

Robyn's eyebrows ticked. She firmly believed all children needed were hugs and space for creativity to thrive. However, Darius didn't look convinced by that principle. He scratched at the graying coils near his hairline and Robyn urged him to speak. "But...?"

"Rob, he's been suspended twice. It's too much trouble."

She frowned at her work friend. "You and I both know what the alternative is." Juvenile detention centers only made children worse, and they’d had too many lunches discussing the potential benefits of proper care for troubled children to throw him to the wolves. 

"He threw a brick at a teacher during recess! We can't have that here...no..." Darius looked genuinely frustrated about the situation, so Robyn wouldn't have to get on him for not thinking it through. But still.

"Well, if you already have your vote about him being here, why are you working on his file at—" she glanced at her watch, "—almost seven at night?"

Darius looked at her for a second and shook his head. "Needed something to do, I guess. I'm closing out now, though. You wanna grab a quick drink?"

"Sorry, can't tonight. It's Wednesday, so–,”

"Oh, that's right. Salsa today?"

"Zumba. I'm actually running late so I have to go. Promise you'll leave before seven; Tim will kick your ass if you miss his jambalaya night—again." 

Darius' husband was known for his twice-a-month dinners, and Robyn had visited their home several times to attend. A news producer for a regional media publication, Tim was able to conjure deals from journalists and directors with his famous jambalaya or seared salmon. Darius secretly hated the ones Tim hosted during the week and would purposely work late to avoid them when he didn't feel like fake smiling at strangers for three hours.

"Eh, it's just some of his family coming by this time," Darius reasoned. "You know how that can be."

"Don't I," Robyn muttered.

"But are you sure about that drink?" Darius asked, one eyebrow pushing up his forehead in concern. "I know today is—"

"I'm good, Darius. Thanks." Robyn touched his shoulder to reassure him and told him goodnight. 

The ignition on her 2011 Honda Civic roared to life alongside the bright orange engine warning symbol. Robyn made a mental note to get her car checked the following weekend and pulled out of the school's parking lot.

She switched her music to the jazz station, a momentary escape from the non-stop train ride she called a mind. The smooth wail of a saxophone accompanied her thoughts as she drove through the city, spotting the homeless people stationed near the new CVS. She passed a cop car and knew the front step of the convenience store wouldn't be crowded for long. She'd lived in Baltimore for nearly seven years and was glad to see the progress in upkeep by the city council. If only they had the power to lessen the rent and gas prices.

Robyn paused her car at a red light, the intersection leading either to the gym or her apartment. She gnawed at her bottom lip. Her gym and dance buddy, Melissa, would be expecting her, but Robyn had had a very long day.

Principal Stewart was on her ass about prepping for the December standardized testing despite it only being October and one of the younger students got sick right in front of her on their way to recess.

She had to prepare for a teacher training being held the following week, and was responsible for the wellness of the sixth-grade teaching staff. She did her due diligence by taking department training outside of school to ensure she knew everything they were supposed to know. Tuesday wasn't even here yet.

Ugh, I earned a break. "Siri, text Melissa: Sorry, I can’t make it tonight." The message sent at the same time the light flashed green and Robyn made a scratchy left toward her home in the Meadows, a dazzling suburban community that was the perfect amount of quiet. The noisiness of school was always forgotten the moment she entered her condo.

While in the shower so long that the steaming water had cooled, Robyn's phone dinged, interrupting the R&B playlist she had going. She saw the screen light up through the glass shower door–a text message.

Damn, do people know what time it is? Text messages at nine at night were a no-no, and she often made it clear to anyone in her circle that her texting schedule began at seven a.m. and ended promptly by eight p.m.

Nevertheless, she was interested to see who'd broken her rule. She switched off the shower and stood naked in front of the mirror as she swiped the condensation from her phone screen. It was her sister, Madison, who certainly was aware she hated responding to late-night messages.

Madison

I know it's late sis, but could you give me a quick call if you're not busy?

Robyn bit her lip and sighed. Madison didn't usually request late night calls, seemingly the only person who actually respected her “I don’t feel like talking now” rule, so Robyn would let her off the hook this time.

Robyn

Call you in a sec, just hopping out the shower.

Pulling on a fresh tank top and one-day-worn pajama bottoms, Robyn microwaved some frozen lasagna and poured herself a glass of wine. She sighed as she tucked one leg beneath her bottom and settled on the couch. Her Empire re-binge would have to wait, but she could spare a few minutes. Maybe Madison would have some amusing tale of the day about one of her fifty-leven children that would make her laugh.

Fighting the urge to bite into the still too-hot meal, she pressed Madison's contact to talk to her while it cooled. Her younger sister picked up on the fifth ring, sounding like she just ran a mile. "Hey sis!"

"Hey. What did you do, just run down the stairs?"

Madison laughed. "Actually, yeah. Xavier was being fussy and didn't want to go to sleep right until you called."

"Where's David? He couldn't help put him down tonight?"

"He's reading Zoey a bedtime story, and before you say anything, yes, we know nine-fifteen is late for a six-year-old."

"Hey now, I didn't judge you this time." Robyn's stomach growled, and the aroma of her dish was too enticing to ignore anymore. She picked it up and sliced a forkful. "So, what's up? You know my cut-off time is eight."

"Yeah, I know. Sorry." Madison's voice sounded far away, like she almost forgot why she was calling. "I...I also was talking to Javina earlier and...never mind. Anyway, I didn't have a chance to call earlier. I actually wanted to talk about David."

Oh, Madison calling about her problems again. Typical, but as the eldest, Robyn was used to it. Forever designated to having all the answers and invisibility. Since Madison hadn't coughed up any information on Javina, Robyn didn't push the subject. She didn't really care to either. Drama tended to follow Javina everywhere she went, even when she wasn't looking for it. Robyn's day had been too long to entertain their cousin's inevitable mishaps. Deadpanned, she asked between bites, "What happened?"

"Nothing happened, per se... it's just...he keeps bringing up the kid thing."

Robyn frowned. "So?"

"Well, we got into it a little bit this morning–,”

"Wait, weren't you guys on a trip this weekend?"

"Yeah..." Madison admitted.

"So you picked a fight on a trip?"

Madison groaned on the other end. "Robyn, listen. I just need some advice; I don't know what to do. He wants more kids now and I'm still not ready."

"Well, if you know that, why are you telling me and not him?" Robyn took another bite. "Sounds to me like y'all just need to have another conversation."

"I don't know if I can change his mind about this. Both of our families are waiting for a new addition because that's what we told them we wanted."

"Then stop lying to yourself."

"I'm not lying to myself!" Madison paused on the other line, and when she returned, her voice was quieter. "This is just hard to navigate, okay?"

Robyn asked, "Have you talked to Mom about it again? She'll have better advice than me."

Madison scoffed. "Hell no. You know she's on David's side. When we checked in on the kids she literally said, and I quote, I can't wait for another little one to look after, and then gave me that face. You know the one she does when she's trying to make a point on the sly."

Robyn did know that face. She tittered despite herself. "Well, you know how much they love to see their only grandchildren. They'd have ten more if it was up to them." She couldn't help but emphasize 'only' like their mother had done so many times before. Retta Moore-Jensen was like a broken record, repeating the same things over and over until you physically removed the disc from the player, i.e. created distance.

"I know...but...shouldn't they just be happy with the ones they have?" Madison wondered.

Robyn chuckled and went for her wine. "I won't speak for our parents, but you need to make a decision. You've been talking about this for almost two years now." Didn't Madison know everyone didn't always like talking about babies? Shit, Robyn would take her rambling about some new autobiography she read over hearing about her and David's children issues.

"I know, I know. You always give me this spiel," Madison said.

"And have a conversation with Mom and Dad, too. You're almost thirty, Mads—they don't control your life."

Madison groaned on the other end. "You don't even talk to them that much...I don't know why you're always begging me, too."

"I do not beg you to talk to them."

"Yeah, you do," Madison said matter-of-factly and Robyn rolled her eyes.

"Whatever. All I'm saying is, you're making this out to be worse than what it is. Talk to David—he can't force you to do anything you don't wanna do and he knows that. And tell Mom to get off your back. I did, and the woman is still standing tall."

Madison scoffed. "I can't tell her that. I'm not mean like you."

The wine glass in Robyn's hand halted before it touched her lips. "Standing up for myself does not make me 'mean,' Madison. You'd know that if you ever tried."

There was a pause on the other end, some ruffling, and then Madison's exasperated exhale.

"Goodnight, Rob. Thanks for the talk," she said and hung up the phone. Robyn stared at the screen before sighing and setting the device on the coffee table.

She didn't always get her sister. Madison had been a worrisome little thing ever since they were children, concerned over anything that didn't fit or make sense. She'd been with David since she graduated college, and Robyn thought it was weird that she didn't always seem to trust him. To Robyn's knowledge and from her sister's mouth, he was a step below incredible, the tiny fraction of space left for typical human flaws.

Robyn exhaled and turned on the TV. She finished her meal with Lucious and Cookie filling in the silence of her apartment. 

Her divorce from Kent had been one year ago from today, but Madison didn't hear her making a fuss about it.

*✧*

Thanks for reading :) 

(A/N: My Wattpad is updated to six chapters, however I’m doing rewrites for each one and posting them here. Jump ahead over there if you wish!)

[twopoppies]

https://www.tumblr.com/twopoppies/758176219387887616/oh-my-gosh-gina-theres-this-het-harrie-on

I have to jump in but have those harries seen Jonathan Bailey in Bridgerton lol? He’s doing exactly the same thing (eating p*ssy) and other very very convincing intimacy with women (even kissing Simone Ashley using tongue) and…oh, he’s gay, out and proud ❤️

Exactly!! Jonathan Bailey is so convincing as a straight man in that show. Hello? It’s called being an actor. 🙄

[phoebehalliwell]

have you ever wondered which actresses could portray the charmed ones if the story was set nowadays? (it may seem weird but i like to make fancasts about the books/shows i like and i was curious if you also thought about it...) i love your blog btw!

hiiiii i actually have never thought of this but i did some thinking over a lunch break or two and i came up with five different options ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Option One

The Tried And True Brunettes!!

basically a one-to-one of the original except set in 2024 so adding a couple more modern slants i imagine prue would maybe work in tech or an app or a start up instead of the auction house, phoebe would def have some plotline with dating apps something or other tying into her column, chappell roan is def performing at p3

Claudia Jessie as Prue Halliwell // i’ve only seen her on bridgerton but the sharpness and the softness she displays with eloise i think would really help encapsulate prue

Victoria Pedritti as Piper Halliwell // ive seen her in a couple things but specifically the characters in the haunting of hill house and the haunting of bly manor i think could really lend itself to her earlier seasons versus her agro kind of insane variant as love in you could def show itself in the later seasons

Danielle Rose Russell as Phoebe Halliwell // if anyone’s seen legacies whenever drr is playing lizzie… i know she’s got the sauce

Mikey Madison as Paige Matthews // i only know her from the scream reboot but i totally see the vision

Option Two

It’s San Francisco!!

for a show that so frequently reminds us it is set in san francisco and the surrounding bay area, it features so few asian characters it is honestly confusing, given that the city itself is roughly one third asian. the show initially seemed like in wanted to lean into that in the very first season given episodes like dead man dating, but it really petered out. this recasting offers a new perspective of the city as well as different facets of life for the charmed ones to explore (i would love to see a lunar new year episode / zodiac episode to overwrite the existing one in canon which is just so :///). for this specific casting, i would have them be a vietnamese family, with paige being half asian and half white raised by adopted white parents, so when she comes into the fold, it's not just her learning about her magical heritage but also her getting to learn and connect with her asian heritage as well

Kelly Marie Tran as Prue Halliwell // i've only seen her in star wars admittedly i don't even know which one i'm not a star wars girlie But i think she carries with her both the bravery of prue and that kind of strong dignity/forceful aura that would really help shape the role

Lana Condor as Piper Halliwell // i know her as lara jean from to all the boys i've loved before and honestly from that alone i think she'd kill as piper

Leah Lewis as Phoebe Halliwell // okay. so while i haven't actually watched nancy drew, my mutuals love it, and from the gifsets i've seen + the promos they would show before riverdale, i do think we've found our phoebe

Piper Curda as Paige Matthews // not the first and not the last pick from Legacies, piper was introduced in the 4th season i'm p sure and i really like her laid back / obviously gay aura and i think she would make a really interesting obviously gay paige

Option Three

Asian Doesn’t Inherently Mean East Asian!!

i wanna see desi witches i feel like i never see desi witches!! plus the bay area / northern california as a whole has a very vibrant indian community so i would love to see that tapped into

Simone Ashley as Prue Halliwell // while she is in sex education we all know the example i'm going to give you here is kate sharma from bridgerton who is basically just regency prue halliwell

Amita Suman as Piper Halliwell // i know her as inej from shadow and bone which admittedly as a series, i did not like. however, i think amita is a talented actress and could pull off an excellent piper

Avantika Vandanapu as Phoebe Halliwell // best known for playing karen in the new mean girls movie. definitely would kill it as phoebe

Maitreyi Ramakrishnan as Paige Matthews // best known as devi in never have i ever, a show that i actually did not watch but my mom did so i've seen roughly 1/3 of all episodes. i think she's a very skilled actress and could play the willful, stubborn, and creative paige excellently

option four

Black Girl Magic!!

i'm going to be perfectly honest with you -- this was absolutely motivated by having an ayo piper. think on it. like. gas.

Omono Okojie as Prue Halliwell // yet another legacies pick but what can i say i love the cast. i think she would bring an appropriate gravitas and like cool stubborness to prue

Ayo Edibiri as Piper Halliwell // hold up sydney adamu from the bear. hold up piper halliwell. they're the same picture.

Jadah Marie as Phoebe Halliwell // i know her from descendants 3 where she was playing dr facilier's daughter celia and that was really all the evidence i needed. she's totally phoebe

Madison Reyes as Paige Matthews // she's julie from julie and the phantoms which if you haven't seen you should esp if you love dcoms bc it's another kenny ortega classic. i think madison brings the right spirit to paige. additionally, being the half sister, she is actually not just black but afro latina, and could introduce new perspectives from her specific puerto rican descent esp in regards to brujeria (a la josefina in season 2 or maybe 3 of the charmed reboot)

Option Five

Everyone Knows The Charmed Ones Are Blonde!!

We're standing in the home of the Charmed Ones, we've got their powers, we got their book, and we got blonde multi-tonal hair!!! on a very real level, could not resist making the blonde variants. largely motivated by sabrina carpenter as phoebe

Meghann Fahy as Prue Halliwell // known for the bold type and the white lotus i think meghann could really the convey the whole i'm lonely but i'm good/i'm bitter but i swear i'm fine vibe prue has going for her

Elle Fanning as Piper Halliwell // we see piper's soft side when elle plays aurora in maleficent and her agro side when she plays catherine in the great

Sabrina Carpenter as Phoebe Halliwell // do i really need to explain this? i'm right. you know i'm right.

Renee Rapp as Paige Matthews // come back to television the kids miss you. i know she usually plays the more prue coded characters like with leighton in the sex lives of college girls and arguably even regina george in mean girls but i've seen her in those interviews. "There is this man who owns a bus touring company. His name is buddy, and he is such an asshole, and he was so disrespectful to my friends, Priscilla and Bella, who I work with, and to my mother. If you're watching this, I can't stand you, and I hope your business burns. You are so disrespectful and so misogynistic. I. Hate. You." that's my paige matthews

castings for other characters under the cut ❤️

Leo Wyatt

Dev Patel // like. logically. could we book dev patel? no. but does that make me want him any less? also no.

Kedar Williams Stirling // best known as jackson in sex education where he just exudes such good vibes you know what i'm saying? that just like nice aura. that's what i want for leo. when leo's around i want the feeling like things are going to be okay bc he's just so good

Alex Roe // if any of you watched siren on freeform i highly recommend the first two seasons i did give up on the third season but the first two were really good. he plays the male lead ben who i feel like honestly would translate over really well to leo. knowledgeable and constantly dealing with the women he loves as shit keeps getting weirder

Vanessa Morgan // she does that "gazes lovingly at a person you are basically cosmically tied to" so well in riverdale i know she could kill as leah wyatt

Cole Turner

Manny Jacinto // i'm not watching the acolyte but i am watching those fancams and i'm gonna need more sexy villian manny jacinto asap

Nathan Parsons // one of those cw actors that gets passed around like the blunt so it only makes sense to have him here. i know him best as max from roswell new mexico but it's specifically when he plays jones, for all intents and purposes max's evil twin that he really starts cole cooking imo. i think he would offer a really fun take on cole.

Havana Rose Liu // who wouldn't go against both heaven and hell to be with her? i mainly know her from bottoms where she might not feel super cole coded but i see the vision

Chris O'Shea // i only know him as percival pickens in season six of riverdale but he served down and i know he'd make a great cole. watch s6 of riverdale. you don't have to watch any of the earlier seasons or any of the seasons after it to understand what's going on i promise. it's the season where they all get magic powers.

Darryl Morris

Quentin Plair // another pick from roswell new mexico he plays dallas the sexy preacher among other things and i think he has a really good um. it's like. that running out of patience type vibe you know what i'm saying? i really like the way he can get the terse like i am being nice right now but i need you to know that is a choice i am making type vibe that i really like when darryl gets (like when darryl first meets cole and there's that tension its such a good darryl moment)

John David Washington // could we book him? idk i don't know if he's really been in any tv shows i know his mainly blackKklansman and tenet and i feel like he def has the chops to give us an excellent darryl

Charles Michael Davis // another cw actor best known to me personally as marcel on the originals and as we can see in the photo looks great in a suit i think he would make a really good darryl esp in the softer moments connecting with the sisters/leo

William Jackson Harper // okay thru googling him right now he's 44?? that's insane to me he does not look 44. most know him as chidi from the good place which i think offers the perfect "this might as well be happening" type energy darryl so often has

Okay but now I need you to tell the best breakfast, lunch and dinner guy books you have read

Well, I should say that wildly enough enough soon after I made that comment about Leo Hathaway he literally told Catherine he must have her for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, sooooo

(He also proposed to her twice on the ride home lmao I forgot how many times he popped the question and she went "NO" or begged off lol.)

Ummmm otherwise:

Historicals:

Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas. While I think Leo edges him out, we do need to acknowledge that Sebastian is real into it. The scene where Evie literally wakes up to him heading down is so good, and of course there's the wall scene.

Suddenly You by Lisa Kleypas. Jack Devil literally adds strawberries to the menu. Which is very controversial among Kleypas readers, and people need to, ah, get over it. Grow up. Be an adult!!!

Scandalous Desires by Elizabeth Hoyt. Another wall "hold your skirts for me" scene that we don't discuss ENOUGH. Charming Mickey, dude! Thief of Shadows also has Winter learn about it for the first time as he is Untouched and be like "I SHALL CONQUER THIS" (he does).

Charlotte and The Seductive Spymaster by Grace Callaway. Grace heroes.... go for allllll of it. And I would say this hero ESPECIALLY. I mean, he's literally eating butter sauce off this woman. Glory and The Master of Shadows also has the amazing scene where Wei literally can't wait for it and does it while Glory's parents are within earshot.

Heartbreaker by Sarah MacLean. Clayborn is abooout iiiiit. He does a "good girl" during, he hops her on top of him, it's a good time.

When the Duke Was Wicked by Lorraine Heath. Rum on lips. Enough said.

The Duke Gets Even by Joanna Shupe. Lockwood.... may be outstandingly about it lol. At one point he's literally like "if I died doing this to her, I would die SO happy".

Something Fabulous by Alexis Hall. Feel this should be mentioned though it's m/m, because Valentine is OBSESSED after he sees someone else doing it to Bonnie (chill people, it's well before they get together) and he's OBSESSED with the idea of doing it after. It's like. The first thing he ever does ever and he compares Bonnie to a flower, which. Hysterical. Something Spectacular also has a great scene where Orfeo tells Peggy right before "now you're going to find out why I'm renowned throughout Europe". HOT.

Hotel of Secrets by Diana Biller has another virginal hero who learns this and like, is obsessed. I love him, he's so strict.

Lady Isabella's Scandalous Marriage by Jennifer Ashley. Mac literally does this to Isabella DURING breakfast.

When a Girl Loves an Earl by Elisa Braden. Has a variation you don't see enough of in historicals, so we're gonna include it.

The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes by Cat Sebastian. Marian isn't into p in v because of trauma. This... is not a problem for Rob.

Contemporary(ish):

Alll of the Kings of Italy heroes by Mila Finelli (including Alessio and Giulio in the m/m book) are super about it. SUPER. MAJORLY. Never forget Enzo D'Agostino being like "oh my god I hate her she's so annoying" while also loudly saying during "I LOVE IT" to her. He's crazy.

The Player by Kresley Cole. I should mention that not only is this hero one of the most obsessive heroes I've ever read... He literally did STUDIES to learn how to be as good at making her happy as he possibly could.

New Camelot by Sierra Simone. Ash and Embry are both into it, but Embry is REEEEEEALLY into it. Like, goes in after he's done into it. (And is juuuust as into doing it to Ash.) Which is so special.

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, should mention because even though there's only one love scene it's long and good and he does the "returning to the scene of the crime" thing, which you never see in contemporary trad romance lol.

Managed by Kristen Callihan. Scottie is very scent-focused. That's all.

Run Posy Run by Cate C. Wells I feel I should mention because he's NOT originally, but after he comes to super value her pleasure he REEEEALLY is.

The Princess Trap by Talia Hibbert. Hero literally has an oral fixation. May be the best example of this lol.

Preferential Treatment by Heather Guerre. Hero is super subby and as such, this is naturally a BIG DEAL to him. There's one scene... dude.

Fantasy:

Bound to the Battle God by Ruby Dixon. DUDE. DUDE. YOU WON'T EVEN BELIEEEVE. Carved into my brain, omg.

Consort of Fire by Kit Rocha. Ash has to keep not one but two women happy. He does this with enthusiasm.

Paranormal:

Should mention that all of the werewolves in Immortals After Dark consider this to basically be a sacred rite that is like, the BIGGEST deal in their culture, basically lol. They worship matehood and it's every little werewolf boy's dream to find his mate and do this to her (or them in general, Kresley's mating bonds are not only het).

Ummm there's a thing in Dark Desires After Dusk where Cade and Holly stop every however many miles on an important road trip so that he can do it to her on the hood of the car.

Lothaire is ABOUT IT. And there is a very famous scene involving it lol.

Thronos in Dark Skye is a controversial hero but he does, again, return to the scene of the crime.

Sci-fi:

Should be mentioned that all of Ruby Dixon's Ice Planet Barbarians are like, never happier than when they're getting this done.
