Long post ahead.
Yesterday, we moved my grandmother into assisted living. I’ve been up here in Pocahontas for most of the week helping my mom pack and spending time with my precious MiMi, who had multiple strokes at the end of last year and cannot take care of herself anymore.
And she’s been looking forward to moving into her new place. It’s back in her hometown of Jonesboro, where some of our family still lives. She has multiple friends and old neighbors that are in this exact facility, and she makes new friends as effortlessly as breathing. My mom is staying with her there for a few days, and said that she’s doing well so far.
I know this is the right decision, and that she’ll be happier and safer. But the change has been surprisingly emotional for me. It’s not a shock that she moved, because she was talking about wanting to do this even before her strokes. She is 92 years old, and has experienced the worst moments of her life while living here. I completely understand her wanting to leave.
I stayed here by myself last night, which felt strange and hollow. For most of my life, my grandparents lived in Jonesboro. I was far more attached to those two houses than I am to this one, which they moved into back in 2010. Being here alone feels shockingly lonely…and I’ve lived by myself (with a dog) for several years. But this place—MiMi and PaPa’s house—is supposed to be filled with family.
I should be able to hear my hard-of-hearing PaPa’s booming bass explaining this year’s crop yield, my Uncle Bobby’s wall-shaking laughter, my Aunt Becky’s always-reserved, quiet alto as she cooks the best meal you’ve ever had. But they’re all gone now.
In less than a two-year timeframe, the three of them passed away. My uncle first, dying of an undiagnosed heart condition in his sleep at his home near Seattle. After being informed of his death, my mom and I joined my aunt up here in Pocahontas to break the devastating news to my grandparents. Witnessing the worst moment of their lives is one of the most heartbreaking memories of mine. Just two months later, that same aunt died of cancer, which was diagnosed about a year beforehand. My MiMi was adamant that she was going to be with Aunt Becky as she passed, as she wished she could’ve been with Uncle Bobby. She held my aunt’s hand as she drifted away while in hospice care.
This was January-March of 2020. My grandfather had developed dementia before this point, and my family could no longer take care of him ourselves…especially after the two aforementioned huge losses. We begrudgingly put him into a nursing home down the road from the Pocahontas house, and my MiMi visited him every day. COVID protocols soon hit, and she was only able to talk to him on the phone and see him through a glass window. The guilt of putting him there overwhelmed my MiMi and my mom, but it was unfortunately necessary. I think my mom still regrets it.
I moved to Texas in January 2021. I had to move to a large city for my then-job, and I loved Austin, so that’s where I chose to go. I hated leaving my family during such a difficult time, but they encouraged me to go live my dream. My PaPa even joked that he would drive down to Austin and see me.
His health deteriorated as the months went by. At the end of November that year, he passed away with my MiMi by his side. He was 93 years old, and held out as long as he could. He was easily the strongest man I have ever known.
I came home for his funeral, wishing that I could’ve been there with him as he passed on, or with my mom when she heard the news. During this time, I learned that due to the skyrocketing housing costs in Austin, my rent was going to go up an extra $600 per month. There was no way I could afford that, and my job agreed that I could work from Little Rock instead. A part of me hated moving back, because I loved my little apartment. My precious dog, Marley, had passed away months earlier from pneumonia while we were out there, and it somehow felt like I was abandoning him as well as my dream home in my dream city.
Being back near my family for the last two years has been the right decision, but it’s also been tough. One of my nieces has been in and out of the hospital with anorexia for nearly these entire two years. She’s been completely inpatient since last August.
Dealing with all of the aforementioned losses, plus my niece’s health, plus my lunatic brother’s violent threats, plus my MiMi’s strokes and deteriorating mental health, I don’t know how my mom even functions. My cousins and I help her with everything, of course, but she’s so fucking tough that she usually wants to do things herself, her way. I’m looking forward to her being able to finally relax knowing that my MiMi will be safe and happier than she has been in years.
So at this moment, I’m here alone in this half-furnished house, reminiscing. My cousins and I will take turns staying up here and fixing things until we sell it. I’m not mourning the loss of the house itself (as I did with my grandparents other two homes) but the fact that the concept of “MiMi and Papa’s house” now ceases to exist.
I’m lucky to have had my PaPa for 37 years of my life. I’m lucky be nearly 40 and still have my MiMi. She’ll be 93 in August, and though she stays positive, she has mentioned that she’ll be glad to be with my aunt, uncle, and grandfather again, as well as her other friends and family members who have passed. She’s not ready to pass on or give up, but she has no fear of death. I selfishly want her around as long as possible, and her chance of a happier, longer life is now much more likely with her move to this new facility.
These past four years have been fucking awful for my family and myself, but hopefully, a positive new chapter is now (finally) beginning.

――――――――――― ⌽ ―――――――――――
Marley had always been a caring person, especially as a child when she saw how much her aunt struggled to raise her and her cousin as a single mother. It was better than the life she could have had were her biological mother to have kept her, but Marley didn't think about that woman anymore. She had been abandoned in the rain by someone who had never cared for her and that was enough knowledge for Marley to move on. As far as she was concerned, her true mother was her aunt and she always would be. It was her aunt's caring nature though that Marley had learned from the woman, a deep seeded trait that came out in sometimes tough but loving words she would rattle off to Goran when she was just riddled with worry and concern. Mars cared about him and what happened to him, sometimes she thought she was the only one when it came to his family, she didn't really see how they supported him. Perhaps she was too judging because she saw him in the aftermath of fights in a different way than anyone else.
Her hands were gentle and moved with proficiency and expertise afforded to a person who had studied and practiced medical care for several years. She wasn't anything close to a doctor, not yet anyway, but Marley was good at what she did know and this was not the first time she'd cleaned and stitched a wound back together. Green eyes were trained on where her fingers worked to clean the gash on Goran's brow, her own furrowed slightly with focus as she worked. After the wound was cleaned to her liking Marley searched the first aid pack for some sort of numbing cream, anything that might dull the pain while she stitched the wound shut. Not finding any she huffed with annoyance and glanced back at Goran as he spoke.
Marley's expression softened, her head tilting just slightly to one side as she instinctively reached out to brush her fingers over Goran's uninjured cheek in an empathetic and sweet action. "You don't have to do this anymore, Goran, you can do whatever you want," she replied, tongue flicking out to wet her lips as she sighed, holding back all the shit she wanted to say about his brother and the lack of support he actually got from his family. He had the right to dream and do what he wanted with his life and he didn't not deserve any backlash or hurt he might get from his family. Marley couldn't imagine having a family that didn't support her, so she decided long ago that she would be whatever support system the kickboxer might need. Whether that was giving him after care for injuries and the emotional strain after losing fights, or helping him find the confidence and strength to stand up to his brother, to his parents, and whoever he might need to in order to stop this horrible cycle he found himself in. "-- you can be anything, go anywhere, no one's holding you back from living however you want, not even your brother."
@someotherdog
marley cared about him; her lectures were coming from a place of concern, and he knew that. on a basic level, goran understood that she was just worried about him and the toll his sport was taking on his body. she didn’t understand him, though. when she wanted him to quit or tell his brother to fuck off, he couldn’t. dejan was his brother. ever since they were young children, he always followed in dejan’s footsteps, and they didn’t have their parents to rely on anymore. the two brothers sacrificed their parents’ respect in order to get into kickboxing. they didn’t approve of their foray into combat sports, expecting them to take over the family restaurant once his parents retired, and barely tolerated goran’s fighting because they thought he’d give it up eventually and come back to run the restaurant some day. goran wouldn’t give it up until dejan told him to.
the tenderness of her touch on his face nearly brought him to tears. he felt so weak then. nearly crying in the locker room after a horrific loss, he certainly didn’t feel like a kickboxer. goran tried to keep it all at bay, blinking his eyes rapidly so the tears wouldn’t form. if it wasn’t her gentle touch, then her soothing words about his family name. even still, he wasn’t convinced that he didn’t. he embarrassed the šimunovićes every time he lost. he embarrassed them just by competing. his brother pulled him one way, his parents pulled him the other. goran had no clue what he actually wanted. all he wanted right then was for marley to continue touching his face.
watching as she prepared the cold compress, he pressed it to his lip when she instructed him to. there was a slight, dull sting to it, but goran had no visible reaction to it. that sort of pain didn’t register above his migraine and split-open eyebrow. he knew he needed to rest. after seven years of constant fighting, he had rarely taken a break for more than a few days since he started. there was always some match to get ready for, some exhibition to make a little extra cash. he wanted to heal, but he just couldn’t. not with dejan as his manager. silent for a moment, goran looked sidelong to the floor as he waited for marley to start the sutures. suddenly, his gaze snapped up to her face, and the tears he had willed away came back full force, beginning to freely fall down his cheeks. “i don’t know if i want to do this anymore.” but what would he do if he didn’t fight? who would he be if he didn’t have kickboxing? / @twistedthings

❝Family secrets come to light when you move into your Great Aunt’s home in Shiganshina. That’s when you learn never to go searching again❞
Every summer since the tender age of five, you’d visit your great aunt.
She lived on an island called Paradis, it was just off the coast of Marley, a day's ride by ferry and so secluded that most outside of the coastal town you lived in were completely unaware of its existence. You were grateful that you were, Shiganshina the town she resided in became your solace, the one place in the whole entire world where you felt home. The Tudor house that had been in your family for five generations; the stuff of dreams for a young girl whose head lived amongst the clouds. The moss-covered walls, faded wallpaper, and old brick fireplace you’re favourite things despite their wear and tear.
As a child, you would have given anything to live there but as the summer months faded away and the Autumn chill settled into the air, you had no choice but to pack your things and say goodbye to your little slice of heaven until summer break rolled around again.
Though as you age your time on Paradis grows shorter and shorter. Festivals, concerts, plans with friends, and summer readings cut into your time and so spending your summer vacation anywhere but home seemed silly. Your love for summers spent in Shiganshina never dwindled, just slipped your mind as you were distracted by the shiny new and exciting prospects your teenage years had to offer. Now as an adult, you longed for the simplicity of your youth, days spent under the balmy sun amongst the trees and foliage as you explored every inch of your beloved island. Pounding the pavement in search of work was not at all a part of the glamorous life you’d envisioned for yourself, and it was after the restless days when you’d fall into bed with a pit in your stomach, your eyes teary as you wallowed in self-pity.
That was until you got the call.
Your great aunt had passed away. It was sudden but not unexpected for a woman well into her eighties. She lived a long and fruitful life, for her to pass in her sleep was all that you and your family could have wanted. There was just the one lingering regret of not making an effort to visit her one last time, the trip wasn’t too long and yet she spent her last few days completely alone in the house she spent her entire life in.
What no one could have anticipated was that the family home was left to you.
Her children resented you for packing your bags without a second thought, leaving your shoebox of a studio apartment just days after the funeral. Everything that remained in the estate at the time of her death was yours for the taking as stipulated in her last will and testament. You were expected to give the house to someone else, someone who needed it more than you, told you must go through her things and give all your aunt’s gold, china, and other treasures away to her children. Go against her last wishes because you were so young, you had so many years to inherit family heirlooms but for now, it was selfish of you to dare think of keeping any of what was given to you.
But you did it anyway.
You needed the fresh start, to get away from the bustling streets of Liberio and take respite in the quiet village. It had nothing to do with the sweet boy who lived three houses down with his grandfather; Armin Arlert. That’s what you’d tell yourself when the guilt began to creep in late at night when you were left alone with your thoughts. Selfish is what you were. You had caught wind that he was working on his thesis back home and thought maybe there’d be something there. Sparks of a lost first love, the cure-all for a wandering soul who felt they’d run straight onto the edge of a cliff. One wrong move and you’d go toppling over, straight to your demise. It might not have been completely innocent and maybe you were selfish for fueling childish desires but you could not remain in the life you were living.
Change was needed.
You wouldn’t allow yourself to be consumed by the ever-raging sea threatening that you’d been struggling to keep your head above for so long. So you’d chased after the man with the spun from the finest of gold and attempt to recapture the freedom you hadn’t felt since the blithe days of your tender youth. And hope that one day you could build yourself the life you’ve always wanted. That was the one hope you clung to, it kept you going day in and day out. Something good would come out of your move, you were sure of it.
It had to.
ʚ♡ɞ
“How has the cleaning been going?” Armin asks you over a cup of coffee, the sky behind him grey and miserable with a drizzle of rain. Fabric softener clings to the soft blue sweater he dons, the white collar of his shirt messily poking out from all the times he adjusted it. “My grandfather says you were in and out, hauling all sorts of boxes until the late hours of the night.”
You hardly hear his soft-spoken words over the bustling streets which surround you, the quaint coffee shop sat squarely in the middle of Shiganshina’s only market, just inches away from the harbour. Venders hollered and beckoned their neighbours to spare one moment of their time, children laughed as they rushed through the cobblestoned streets, brightening up the dull atmosphere. You lean forward, the weight of your elbows on the table making it wobble.
“Sorry,” you mutter, holding the tabletop steady. Armin waves you off with a smile, the wind ruffling his hair. It makes him look younger, that and the rosy flush laying across his freckled cheeks like a warm bright blanket. Offering him an awkward smile back you huff, “The cleaning is going alright, just a bit tedious,” you sigh, your finger circling the lid of your cup, “There are mountains upon mountains of memories, entire lifetimes sprinkled across every inch of that house.”
Your steely eyes catch his soft ones. The faraway look you were so used to gazing upon was gone. All that was left was Armin and his pretty blue eyes, staring back at you as he listened intently, craning his neck ever so slightly so as to not miss what comes next.
“It’s difficult to decide what to let go of.”
His fingers twitch, slowly inching towards yours, recoiling for a moment only to quickly wrap around yours before any doubt or insecurities could creep up. It starts at the tips of your ears, the flush that burns so hot it might just spark a flame. Travelling down your neck and dancing across your wind-bitten cheeks. It fills you up, a much better remedy for a rainy day than the tepid drink in front of you. Ducking his head down, Armin bit his lip silently searching for the perfect words. There isn’t much he could say to you that would be comforting but the small gesture was enough to send your heart reeling.
“If you need help, you know where to find me.”
Armin grins, chuckling to himself.
“I’ll even get some friends too but be warned, I think Sasha and Connie believe your house is haunted.”
“Haunted?” you echo, blinking blankly back at him, “Why would they think that?”
He shrugs his shoulders, “Because of the vibe?” he says, using his hands to make quotation marks, “That’s what they said when I told them you were moving back home.”
The loss of his touch stings, your mind racing as the wet cold seeps back into your fingers. You crave the feeling of his skin on yours but he tucks his hands in his lap, his spine stuck straight when it hits him. The proximity, how he was close enough to feel your breath on his cheeks. He’s suddenly too aware, picking up on a million little things he hadn’t thought to notice until now. You smell nice, beyond the fragrant detergent smell that clings to your sweater is something delicate and he finds himself wanting to lean back in to become better acquainted with it until he could pick it out in a crowded room. And your lips, they’re shiny and tinted from the chapstick you spent five minutes searching for in your bag. He wonders what they taste like; if the flavour of your drink will linger on your tongue.
But you look like a deer caught in a pair of blinding headlights, shoulders tense and rigid. He keeps his hands to himself too caught up in his own sea of misery to notice how you deflate, a longing look filling your irises.
“Don’t listen to them, they once agreed a ceramic lion they saw at a thrift store was sentient,” he shakes his head, nearly rolling his eyes at the memory, “I think Connie dropped it five minutes after they bought it,” you chuckle, the image of the two of them crystal clear, “So don’t worry about any inane theories the two cook up, they’re glad you’re home but I suppose they just need a little something more to spice up the good news.”
There it was again, that word; home.
“I know I am.”
Home.
Shiganshina could become your home, you could build yourself a life. You hadn’t dared to plan ahead, obsessing over the future had done you wrong time and time again. But you could stay here, settle in the mundane way of living this tiny island was known for, maybe open up a shop or spend your days up in Ragako tending to a garden only passing through the vibrant city of Trost when you wanted to set up a stall at the local farmers market. Some may have seen a life like that as a waste of a degree but you’d be content.
You could be content.
“I’m glad too,” biting your lip you clap your hands together before popping out of your seat. Extending your hand to his you thread your fingers with his the moment he accepts, “And I’m really glad we to catch up,” his elbows awkwardly knock against yours but that doesn’t stop him from pressing his body against yours, the warmth radiating off him seeping through to your chilled core, “An old friend makes uprooting your entire life a lot easier.”
Something flashed behind his eyes, you can see the cogs churning in his mind just before he decides to plant a quick kiss on your cheek, a boyish smile threatening to overtake the neutral expression he dons. And it does, your heart swelling twice its size the larger his smile grows. Resting his head on your shoulder, Armin sighs softly, taking a quick swig of his drink.
“There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.”
It knocks the wind straight out of you, the admission, and you wonder if you’re hearing things. If you fell asleep waiting for him to arrive and this was all some sort of dream. But you feel the wind on your face, can taste your drink, and you can smell the murky canal water that sloshes over the harbour. It was real, not a figment of your imagination running amuck in a daydream gone too far.
“Does that mean you’ll clear out my creepy attic for me?”
You joke, attempting the quell the uncomfortable twinge of excitement coursing through you.
“I said anything,” he remarks, his brows rising slightly, “That would fall under anything, wouldn’t it?”
Nodding your head you purse your lips, “I suppose so,” it’s difficult, to pluck up the courage for the words dying to come out, “Next Saturday, it’s a date then?” you swallow thickly, squeezing your cup so tightly the lid threatens to pop off, “If they’re free and you’re free we can uhm invite your friends over too.”
They eat away at you, the nerves.
No amount of courage would allow you to stand firm in your decision because you’ve stepped too far. The affection he’s shown you is platonic, that’s what you tell yourself when it feels like you’re barreling straight ahead, a hundred and ten kilometres over the limit and your brakes don’t work. There’s no reason to get yourself all worked up.
“Maybe find a place that does takeout?”
“It’s a date,” he says, firmly with a nod. His Adam’s apple bobs when he swallows back the nervous laughter, “Just let me know what time you want us to come over,” glancing at his watch, Armin sends you a forlorn smile, “Ah, gotta go now if I wanna catch the train to class, the campus is all the way in Stohess.”
His nose smushes against your cheekbone when he quickly leans in to plant another kiss on your face. It’s right by the corner of your mouth if he moved just an inch closer he’d have kissed you. Giving your hand one last squeeze he parts from you, the sunshiney warmth that swaths you going with him. Casting a glance over his shoulder he waves at you, his eyes all over you until the very last second when he has no choice but to turn his head and carry on, pushing through the throngs of people until he disappears from your line of vision. Pressing your hand against your chest you sigh, your heart pounding so roughly against your rib cage you can hear the rush of your blood in your eardrums. You find yourself planted, your feet like two lead weights stuck in the cobbled stone ground, watching the world pass by, just for a moment. That was until other busybodies rushing past you began to bump into you. Quick and empty apologies were sent your way but they were unneeded. You were the lovestruck idiot standing smack-dab in the street, mooning over the feel of a man’s soft lips so closely pressed to yours.
So you picked yourself up, mindlessly walking through the streets until you found yourself back home.
The sun poked through the dewy grey clouds, warming up your frigid digits until your skin grew pleasantly balmy. Light filters through the large rounded window at the top of your house, through the stained glass you can see through it, into the attic. It’s been untouched as far as you could tell, boxes piled so high you could practically see the thick layer of dust gathering on them.
You wondered just what was in them, how important such things could be if they lasted generations upon generations.
That was your first mistake; wondering. It let you up into the attic that day, curiosity swirling amongst your idle mind. There wasn’t much for you to do today, there was no reason you couldn’t get started on rifling through your family’s things it’d make for less work tomorrow. So you stumbled through the front door, entranced by the idea of all the trinkets and goodies you’d find. Maybe there’d be boxfuls of memories, polaroids untouched by time that captured the youthful glow of childhood, or relics of someone else’s past that would tell you all their deepest desires.
You found none of that.
Beyond the half-rotted wooden stairs and uneven floorboards laid a pair of piercing emerald eyes, they cut through the darkness with an eerie glow, unwavering even as you ventured forward; that was your second mistake. Carefully toeing further into the attic, sure that whatever you were seeing was a mirage, a simple figment of your imagination, or perhaps the bright sunlight bouncing through the window. But the window was nearly overshadowed with crumbling boxes that would fall apart at the touch.
“Is someone there?”
That was your third mistake.
Doe-eyed and innocent, the perfect first victim in a horror movie— foolishly calling out into the abyss as though that would bring you peace of mind.
“Pretty,” a voice rasped, scutting forward. Chains rattling following the moment of the creature swathed in darkness, “You’re pretty, oh my, come closer would you?”
The floorboard creaked beneath your weight as you veered backwards, shocked that a person responded. It had to have been something like fatal attraction, pulling you closer and closer until you came face to face with the thing speaking to you. With those two emerald eyes came a face, tanned and covered in freckles. He was scraggly looking, dishevelled hair, and odd red streaks running down the tops of his cheeks. They laid atop of his otherwise unblemished skin, tainting it just as the two protruding horns resting on the crown of his head tainted the rest of his delicate, boyish features.
You would have thought him to be pretty, had it not been for those unsettling peculiarities.
The moisture in your mouth seemed to be sucked out in an instant, leaving your mouth dry, and you for a loss for words. You laughed, from shock and from disbelief. You pressed your eyes shut, squeezing them until it hurt. When you opened them, he was still there, blinking up at you. A hungry, lust-filled expression marring his face. The floorboards beneath him were covered in scratches, reeking of desperation, and a fight not yet given up.
“Just step into the light for me?”
He begs, his eyes growing round and watery as he claws at the collar clasped around his neck. The leather is worn and frail, merely inches away from snapping yet so tightly wound against the taunt neck of his skin. It kept him trapped, just behind a pile of rubbish and attached to the wall at the far end of the attic.
“Please?”
His voice breaks and you swear tears of desperation fill his lashline.
You can’t help but step forward, the golden rays of sunlight filtering through the window hitting you. It had to have been the pitiful lilt in his voice, ebbing the creeping questions away from the forefront of your mind. Curiosity flowing through your veins, an overwhelming sense of wonder.
Why?
The creature surges forward, clawing at your feet as it glances up at you. A purr-like sound floats up to his throat, but it’s scratchy and clogged like the sound is foreign and startling to him just as it is to you. His lips crack open into a smile, revealing a set of dangerously sharp teeth, as gangly and unsightly as he is. When you don’t recoil he presses closer, uncomfortably hot hands creeping underneath your pant legs. They’re calloused, rough around the edges and hot, not sticky but still unpleasant against your supple skin.
“Pretty,” he all but moans, pressing his face against your shins, “So pretty, oh how lucky am I.” Nuzzling against your legs, he tightens his hold on you.
You nearly topple over, his frail image a farce as his strength all but crushes you. “Are you alright?” You muster up the courage to ask, your hands floundering by your sides, “Why are you … What are you doing here?” Your heart grows heavy as you utter those words, horrible thoughts filling your head, “Did my aunt…”
Your words trail off, your lips pressing together with a shake of your head. She just passed away, it’d be terribly cruel to even suggest such a thing; keeping a man captive in her home. But he wasn’t a man, was he? He couldn’t have been, not with all the strange oddities covering his body. As a child, you’d often fall prey to the stories shared in the dead of the night, blasted across a blindingly white computer screen, unavoidable because humans were creatures of habit. And they always loved to terrify one another wrapped under the thoughtful guise of a cautionary tale.
Misshapen humanoid figures who ached to gobble up innocent bystanders until they were forced to spill their guts up haunting your dreams.
The thing before you was nothing like the creatures roaming amongst your nightmares but you weren’t so naive as to think this was all some sort of prank, that beneath the ragged clothing, gnarly teeth and horns was just a man. Perhaps a neighbour looking for a thrill or even one of Armin’s friends who thought he could take advantage of such a ripe opportunity. But there was no makeup smudged as he rubbed his face against the leg of your pants, the horns didn’t wobble, and his teeth didn’t dare slip out of his mouth.
You heard the rumours.
Of your Aunt, of the practices and beliefs she held; of her penchant for all things mystical.
This must have been a repercussion of sorts. An experiment gone wrong or something similar. Or this was all just a hallucination from a gas leak or even mould, the house was awfully old, a sloppy job of brick and mortar could cause all sorts of issues.
He nods his head, perking up at the mention of your aunt, “My master,” he says, the daring curl of his lips hidden from your sight, “Oh she was cruel, chaining me up and leaving me here to die,” he whimpers, holding you closer, “After draining me of all my powers, won’t you help me, pretty one?”
Your knees buckle, bringing you to the ground with him. A fine layer of dust billows into the air as a cardboard box topples over, the floorboards groaning as it lands with a thud. His face is uncomfortably close, his arms caging you against his firm chest.
“I’m sorry she did that,” you whisper, swallowing thickly, “But she’s gone, you’re free now…”
You trail off, waiting for him to grant you his name.
“Eren.”
He grins at you, resting his chin on your chest. He looks like a cat licking its chops, preparing to devour its next meal. Only rather than a plate of food splayed before, it was you. Offering him a crooked smile you give him your name your head growing groggy the longer you gaze into his jewel-toned eyes.
“And I’m not free,” he mutters, his bottom lip wobbling, “Not yet at least …”
Eren spoke to himself, his thick brown brows stitching together in annoyance. Turning his focus back to you, he cocks his head to the side, shyly batting his lashes at you. “Would you help set me free?”
You want to peel yourself away from him, the heat he emits clinging to your body. Sweat drips down your temple, your clothing growing damp and uncomfortable. But you nod your head, your chest swirling with sorrow for the poor creature. And you don’t think twice to question just what exactly he was and how your Aunt managed to do the things he claimed. It was all too bizarre for rational thought.
“Of course I’ll help you,” cupping his cheek you give him a sympathetic smile, “Just tell me what you need me to do,” you’re earnest and kind, just the person Eren needed, “No one should live out their days in a musty old place like this.”
The two of you share a laugh. Your heart calms, falling into a slow but steady rhythm in your chest. But it wouldn’t have had you caught the look of malice flashing across Eren’s face. Leaning into your touch, strands of his hair slip over his shoulder. The expression he wears is akin to that of a lovesick man, longingly observing his lover. It was strange for someone to look at you in such a manner, no one had ever looked at you like that.
Not even Armin.
“What do I have to do?” You ask, hoping to break the trance of adoration Eren seemed to be in.
For a moment he silently pondered his options before grinning wolfishly at you. You could practically see the lightbulb going off inside his head, “You have to give yourself to me,” he states, his breath growing heavy, “That’s the price of my freedom.”
The leather around his neck snaps, allowing Eren to break free from his confines but he doesn’t run. Instead, he pushes you onto your back, pinning you to the floor, his taut body flush against you, his long black tail curling around your arm. It’s smooth, oddly unfitting amongst his rough edges and jaded exterior. The smile he wears is wicked, his breath growing heavy as he surveys your body.
“Won’t you help a poor man out?”
Licking your lips you let out a nervous chuckle, “You can’t-” you shudder, shaking your head, “Would you explain, I … I don’t understand, why?”
“I’m an incubus!”
He says it as though it were the most obvious thing in the world, chirping with a saccharine smile.
Incubus.
That was a sex demon, that was all you could recall; the stars of countless otome games and featuring in horribly obnoxious hentai films. Wracking your brain for anything beyond surface-level knowledge proved fruitless. They were the stuff of fantasy and sometimes the stuff of nightmares but for you, they left a hole in the middle of your mind. Less a mystery and more of a haze that left your skin covered in bumps. You didn’t like this limbo of unknown or the helplessness that grew from ignorance. But what you despised was that part deep inside of you where all the good things lived, it screamed at you to just say yes, to grant the pitiful demon before you freedom, and be the good samaritan you were raised to be. Help him, chalk this night up to a lust-fueled fever dream, and forget it ever happened.
If only it were that easy.
“And that’s it?”
He nods, lovingly nuzzling his face into your cheek, “Simple as that!” The musk which clings to his skin invades your nostrils, he smells of sweat and a vaguely floral scent similar to the one your Aunt wore, and something you couldn’t quite place. It was pleasant, you couldn’t help but grow intoxicated by it- by him, “So will you do it?”
“Yes.”
Your fingers press into the floorboards, a flash of heat blossoming across your chest, seeping deep into your belly.
“No, no!” he cries, “You have to say it, you have to say you’ll give yourself to me!” Eren grows tense, “I can’t … not if you don’t!”
Licking your lips you cast him a look, “I give myself to you,” it feels forced coming from your lips but Eren’s expression grows more and more excited as he silently goads you on, “Mind, body, and soul it’s all yours, Eren,” you say, the words flying out of your mouth. You don’t consider the weight of your words, oddly compelled to promise everything under the sun to him, to devote yourself to giving him all that your earthly power could muster up, “I’m yours.”
His plump lips are on your neck in an instant, his body curling around yours with insatiable desperation filling him to the brim. It sloshed over onto you, creating a pit within you that could only be filled by him. They’re smooth, his lips, and balmy, his teeth and tongue darting out to lick and nip the supple skin of your neck. Your skin grows tender with each bite, the shape of his teeth marring your skin, bruises left in their wake. Pinpricks of pleasure and need zip up your spine, you want more. You need more, it’s not enough, nor is the feel of his hands smoothing up your sides, groping at the slivers of exposed flesh he can find. His hips press into yours, his cock hardening against your thigh. It’s discreet, almost timid, the way he ruts his dick against the fat of your thigh, soft sighs muddled between the sloppy kisses.
Your name leaves his lips over and over again, his cold and nimble fingers tugging your jumper up to give him more access to your body. His tail unravels from your arm, slithering down your body to probe at the waistband of your pants, the pointed tip slipping beneath it. It smooths over your underwear, rubbing at your slit through the material. Your hips jerk up to grind into it, your breath growing heavy when it circles over your clit, pressing deeper to rouse a moan from you.
“Please,” you pant, your teeth clamping down on your bottom lip, “Eren, will you give me more?”
You can feel him smile into your neck, greedily soaking in the need dripping off of your voice. Your body growing oddly sluggish, head foggy and stuffed with cotton. Pushing your jumper further up, he tugs it off your body, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets as he ogles your chest. Eren lets out an unabashed moan, his claws slicing through the wool. There’s unbridled lust, flickering across his eyes as he scopes out your skin, a certain urge to mark up your chest and belly.
To claim you as his.
The white-hot flame of desire danced across your skin, burning you from the inside out.
It wasn’t enough, the feather-light touch of his tail, sloppy and uncoordinated. Only serving to leave you desperate and wet. Pushing your bottoms off with a huff you cast your gaze to Eren, the horns and dangerously sharp teeth all the more intimidating when they were inches away from your face. His tail slithers up your body, damp against your skin, flickering between the two of you before it flies between Eren’s soft pink lips. A look of pure ecstasy crosses his face, his knuckles growing white as he tightly balls his hands into a fist to contain himself.
The taste of you.
Oh, how it delighted it him, igniting the flames of a beast long gone quiet. It’s voice blasted against his eardrums, roaring and rumbling around in his chest. A certain vitality, previously lost amongst the years flooding through his veins as he savoured the taste of you.
More. He could give you more.
“Take them off,” he coos, laying back against the floor, “And come have a seat, I’ll give you more.”
It thrums through the two of you like livewire— anticipation.
Your legs feel too close to jello for your comfort, heavy and wobbled as you hoist yourself off the ground, tugging down your underwear without as much as a second thought. The throbbing need between your legs operates your body, turning your brain off so you could run on pure primal instinct. You didn’t think of the semantics, that maybe you should have come up for air, grabbed a condom, and probed him further.
What did this even entail?
But you didn’t, too focused on how Eren looked between your plush thighs. His emerald eyes are starry and bright as he comes face to face with your glistening cunt. His tongue darts out to lick his lips, calloused hands smoothing over your thighs, his gangly nails pressing into them as he lowers you onto his mouth. It’s warm and surprisingly wet against your dripping folds, his pointed nose bumping against your hardened clit. You steady yourself by way of his horns, your fingers wrapping around the jagged appendages, the pointed tips painful in the palms of your hands but the feeling is lost amongst the bliss you feel. It’s depraved, the way he slurps up every last bit of your essence, only to tongue fuck your clenching hole until it dribbled even more into his waiting mouth. The toes of your boot-clad feet drag against the floor, your muscles tensing for a moment as that familiar feeling grew near.
“You’re so good at this,” you say, it’s mindless chatter. He knows he’s good, it’s written within his DNA, it’s what he was born to do. But you say it anyway because you feel sluggish, your hips moving on their own accord, erratically grinding against his face, and the words just spill out. “Oh fuck me, why are you so-”
A hiccupy breath cuts into your speech, forcing you to swallow back desperate gulps of air.
Using his thumbs to spread your labia apart, Eren sets his sight on your clit, in his own mind palace as he relishes the taste of you. His lips, pink and glossy wrap around the bud, suckling on it. You fall apart so quickly on his tongue, your body jolting with each zap of pleasure that dances up the tender slope of your spine.
Ardent and pliant all for him.
It fills Eren up; rejuvenating him. He can feel the strength thrumming through his veins, growing larger and larger with each sweet sound you graciously gift him. Something is mumbled against you but you don’t catch it. Eren’s hair catches beneath your knees as you hunch forward, but he pays no mind, his focus solely pouring into carrying you through your orgasm. Your throat is strained by the moans ravaging it and the dust permeating the air. But what drives you up the wall is how swirls his tongue around your clit, the sensitivity unbearable. You have no choice but to fall forward, ridding yourself of the devilishly intoxicating rapture.
Crumpling forward, your chest grows heavy as you sneeze, your eyes rimmed red from the dingy attic air.
“God,” you whisper, your nose crinkling in disgust as your eye catches a large water stain seeping in the wood, “I haven’t … Not like that, never in my life.”
Giving your calf a squeeze he chuckles, “Not quite my sweet,” looming over your figure, he preens, “Just a creature at your service.”
You giggle, breathless against the cold wood. Goosebumps raise along your skin but you’re too weak to move.
“Was that enough?”
You ask, lashes batting against the tops of your cheekbones.
“Are you free? The spell, is it broken?”
“No,” Eren frowns, reaching down to pet your cheek, “Don’t you remember? You offered up your entire being to me,” he states, a sympathetic look adorning his face, “That’s the price of freedom.”
He speaks as though he’s convincing himself, but the moment passes and he wears a cheery look once more. So ready to pounce on you, to claim you as his. You can’t even begin to fathom what thoughts may be lurking in the dark corners of his mind but behind the smile, you tell he’s hungry for more. And that’s when you notice it, his cock, red and weeping between his legs, nestled beneath a curl patch of dark brown hair. You swallow thickly, your mouth feeling strangely dry as you wait for him to make his move. Your eyes sweeping across his figure, that’s when you notice it; right below his navel is a tattoo, swirling dark purple ink intricately crafted but the meaning is lost to you.
And though, the more he utters that word, “freedom”, the more it ceases to hold the meaning it once did. You wish he’d stop prattling on about it and you wish you could let go of it too. But it’s easier to play games than admit the truth, succumb to the hidden desires because then it’d mean accepting the implications of this evening.
So you nodded your head, laying flat on your back and timidly spread your legs wide for him. Not willing to give yourself a moment to think. If you did, you may have felt guilt. Guilt for allowing your naive sense of morality that led you here. Guilt for chasing Armin for so long yet unwilling to allow yourself to admit the feelings you held for him. Guilt because this felt like some sort of betrayal the longer the two of you lay in wait.
“For your freedom,” you whisper, your breath catching, “I’ll dedicate my heart.”
You want to laugh but your prowess is the final straw. The damn breaks and Eren is upon you, his thumbs pressing into your hips as he slots himself between your legs. His cock heavy on your pelvis, he can’t stop himself from pressing his face into your hair and inhaling, “Oh you’re so sweet,” he moans, the leaky tip slipping between your folds, “You’re so kind, oh how blessed am I?” His shoulders tremble and his teeth bite into his lips as he presses his cock into you, “How fated it is we met like this— if only you could be my new master.”
You’re forever ruined by the feel of his cock.
The way it splits you apart, filling you to the brim so deliciously you think you must be dreaming. His cocks bulbous head pressed snuggly against that spot deep inside of you. But that wasn’t the thing that made you swim in and out of mind, it’s this heat that wafts off of him, and it hits you that he smells good. He didn’t smell good, he couldn’t possibly smell good, he smelt terrible but your senses are filled with something so sweet, floral. And it leaves your head heavy and something feels wrong but the pleasure is mind-numbing. You can ignore it, so you do.
“You like the sound of that?” he hums, his jaw falling slack as he moans, “I do, oh I so do!” Eren chuckles, pressing his nails into the wood, they sink into it with ease, “Let me be your pet huh, we could have so much fun, just like now!”
Eren snarls, the feel of your walls clenching around him driving him up a wall. It had been too long.
Your fingers slip between his lips as you try to smack your hand over his mouth, “Just shut up,” you whimper, eyes squeezing shut. You couldn’t think, not like this, not that you’d want to but he prattles on, begging for you to just say yes, “Eren, for god’s sake please shut the hell up!”
He preens so prettily, but you cannot take it.
Your hand slips down to his neck, you don’t realize you’re doing it until your thumb presses down on the column of his neck.
“Stop talking … please!”
And he does, choking on air with tears in his eyes.
They’re fake but you don’t know that, too busy with the wave of ecstasy washing over you. It’s euphoric, your brow furrowed and sweaty. As the quiet settles and your mind clears you’re hit with a thought, it’s fleeting, and just passes your consciousness for a moment but you catch it. Incubi live off sex, they feed off it, they drink their partner dry and then move on to the next. A literal man-eater.
You laid right between his claws.
He’s still hard, rutting into your cunt with reckless abandon. But he doesn’t bat a lash, nuzzling his face into yours as he mewls, “Every night can be spent just like this.”
Eren’s eyes glow a dangerous sort of green and it makes you feel sick, but there is nowhere for you to run. You had chosen this path, you agreed to be his meal ticket.
“Mine,” he mutters, kissing your cheek, “All mine, we’ll be so good together.”
You let out a tearful moan, the ability to speak lost to you.
“And we’ll have so much fun!”
Your cunt squelches obscenely loud, the swell of your ass wet with your slick. His tale snakes up your torso, wrapping around your waist in a snug hold. Keeping you pliant in his hold, humming to himself, enjoying how you creamed around him. The sounds you made the most beautiful music he’d ever heard.
“Just you wait and see, my love.”

(day 13) a cliche christmas story , jeff skinner
note, this fic is part of my 14 days of christmas. check out this masterlist if you're interested. none of these fics in this series are connected, they are all standalone. another note, this fic really doesn't have anything to do with christmas. it just gave me a reason to write a sweet fic for jeff skinner. pair, jeff skinner x reader summary, y/n gets dumped right before christmas, so to drown her sorrows she goes to a bar where she meets jeff. warnings, alcohol consumption (all legal) word count, 2013 words
(gif not mine)
The bar was packed, but you had never felt so lonely. You stared at the glass in front of you as you tried to hold back tears, "He's a jerk." Your best friend Marley told you.
"I know." You nodded.
"Do your parents know?"
"Nope." You shook your head, "It's been almost a month and I still haven't told them."
"Well, drinks are on me tonight." She smiled.
"You don't have to do that." You shook your head.
"It's on the house, and in return, you let me spend time with my favorite niece."
"Stop referring to my cat as your niece." You sighed.
"Why? I'm her aunt?"
"Marley..." You sighed, shaking your head with a smile, "Come over whenever you want. Mango misses you."
"See? Just admit it, Mango is my niece."
You shook your head, "Whatever. Think whatever you want. And get back to work while your at it. There's a guy down there to get your attention." You noded to the other end of the bar.
"She's my niece." She insisted, before making her way down to the other end of the bar. You went back to staring at your drink before Marley placed another drink in front of you.
"I mean, I know you said you would cover my drinks, but I thought I would at least get to order my own drinks." You joked.
"I know, this one isn't from me. This one's from the guy down there." Marley told you, pointing down to the guy you had just pointed out to her.
"What? Why?" You asked.
"Said he didn't like seeing a pretty girl looking so sad." Marley smiled.
You nodded, looking at the new drink placed in front of you, "Tell him I said thank you."
"Well, you can tell him yourself cause he's making his way over here," Marley announced.
"What?" Your head popped upright as the guy walked over and next to you, "Hi."
"Hi." He smiled, "I'm Jeff." He held out his hands.
"Y/N." You smiled, shaking his hand. Marley stood there awkwardly as you and Jeff jumped into a conversation, so before things got deeper, she decided to interrupt.
"You know what? There are other customers who look like they need some drinks. Give me a holler if you need anything else." Marley told you before practically running away.
"So, tell me about yourself, Jeff." You leaned your head in your hands as you took another sip of your drink.
"Well, my name is Jeff Skinner, I'm originally from Canada..."
"Canada? Your far away from home, Dorthy." You joked, bringing a smile to his face.
"Yeah, I play hockey." He answered, looking down at his hands, almost nervously.
"Hockey? Like professionally?"
"Yeah, professionally." He nodded.
"That's so cool. Like for the Sabres?" You asked.
"You a hockey fan?" He asked.
"Yeah, originally from Philly, and hockey is sort of big." You explained.
"The Flyers." He nodded, "So, what's got you looking so sad and upset? I mean, there's Christmas music playing." He pointed out.
You laughed, "I uh, got dumped a few weeks ago, and he was supposed to come home with me for the holidays, but that's not happening anymore."
Jeff nodded, "He's an idiot."
"So I've been told." You nodded.
Before you knew it, an hour had passed, "Well, from sitting here with you for the past hour, I think you're a great girl," Jeff told you.
"Has it already been an hour?" You checked your phone and saw that indeed an hour had gone, "Wow, didn't realize that much time had gone by." You chuckled.
"If it's okay, and not too forward, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to maybe get some coffee or something?" He offered.
"Oh..." You started.
"Oh." He quickly got the message, "Too soon."
"Yeah." You nodded.
"How about this, I have a ticket for a game in a few weeks, it's yours if you want to go. I can even get your friend a ticket too."
"Really? You'd do that?" You asked.
"I mean, yeah." He nodded, "I think you're a pretty amazing girl, and I think it's a shame that you're here alone."
"Thank you, Jeff. I'd really like to go to your hockey game." You smiled.
"And it's just your luck. We're playing against the Flyers." He chuckled.
"I hope you're not expecting me to cheer for you." You laughed.
"I didn't expect anything less." You grabbed a napkin and quickly wrote down your number.
"I guess I'll be seeing you again in a few weeks." You smiled, handing him the napkin.
"I guess so." He nodded.
-
Even though the game was a few weeks away, you and Jeff talked practically every day. He would tell you about his day and you would talk about yours. It was very mundane, but it felt very... comfortable.
On Thursday, you and Marley were sitting in the front row at Jeff's game. Marley suggested you bring a sign, but you quickly turned it down, "What? It's a good idea." She told you, to which you told her "no"
You took a sip of your beer as the guys skated out. You watched amazed as your team skated out onto the ice. Jeff made sure you got a seat behind the Flyers bench, which you knew was intentional, and you made a mental note to thank him profusely.
You enjoyed the game. Marley wasn't a big hockey fan, so you had to explain all the rules to her, but you enjoyed your time and even got a picture of the back of the Flyer's benches heads.
After the game, it felt awkward to meet him down by the locker room, so he promised he would come over to your apartment and you would just chill out together.
You dropped Marley off at home, and before she even stepped out of the car, she made you promise that you would tell her everything and all the details.
You drove home and mentally prepared yourself for what was going to happen, "It's gonna be fine. It's not like you've never talked before." You hyped yourself up. Mango walked around your feet, confused as to why you were freaking out so much.
You picked her up and looked at her in the eyes, "I need to calm down, don't I?" She let out a meow as if she was agreeing with you, "I'm gonna take a deep breath." You told her, then proceeded to take a deep breath.
Right as you breathed out, a buzzing sounded throughout your apartment. You let out a panicked breath then walked over, and let him in. A few minutes later there was a knock on your door, and you took another deep breath.
"This is it, Mango." You whispered, picking her up and opening the door, "Hi." You smiled.
"Hi." He smiled, then his eyes went down to Mango, "Who's this?" He ran a hand over Mango's head.
"This is Mango. Don't know how old she is, but she's been with me since I moved to Buffalo." You explained, pressing a kiss to the top of her head before setting her down and letting her investigate Jeff.
Once she was done with her investigation and she realized he was in the clear, she walked back into your apartment, "So, you wanna come in?" You stepped out of the way, and let him walk in.
He immediately started looking around and, much like Mango, started investigating everything little thing. He looked around at all your photos, all your little trinkets, and all the memorabilia you had accumulated.
"Can I get you something to drink? Beer? Water? Soda? I have mango juice." You offered.
He chuckled, "I'm okay." He shook his head, "It feels very... homey." He stated.
"Yeah, just a few odds and ins I've collected over the years." You nodded, putting a kettle on for tea.
"My apartment does not feel homey. Everything came fully furnished when I moved in." He explained.
"Well, I'm sure everything in your apartment is very nice." You offered a smile and a shrug.
"It's is nice." He nodded, looking around at all the pictures and photos on your fridge.
"Well, thank you for the tickets. I had a really good time, although I'm sorry you guys lost."
"Eh, it's cool. I'm glad you had fun." He smiled.
You hummed and waited for your kettle. You leaned against your island, Jeff following in your footsteps and leaning against the island.
"So, have you always played in Buffalo?" You asked.
"Uh, no. I started in Carolina." He answered.
"Fun." You nodded, "Do you wanna, like, watch a movie or something?" You asked.
"Sure." He nodded.
"All right, you can head to the living room and I'll meet you there." You told him, waiting for your water.
Somewhere in between the movie, you and Jeff fell asleep on each other. Well, your head was on his shoulder and he fell asleep on your head.
The next morning, Marley, who had keys to your apartment and vice-versa, let herself into your apartment and was greeted with quite the sight. You and Jeff asleep on each other.
She chuckled and snapped a photo before shaking you awake, "Wake up, babe." She whispered.
You jolted awake. When you picked your head up, Jeff picked up his too, "Huh?" You asked.
"What time is it?" Jeff asked, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.
"It's 9 in the morning," Marley answered with a knowing smirk.
"Oh, stop smirking." You glared.
"I'm gonna go wait in the kitchen." She didn't stop smirking as she made her way into the kitchen.
"I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to fall asleep." Jeff slipped his shoes and jacket on.
"It's fine. We both did." You smiled.
"I should get going. I have an errand I gotta run." He smiled back.
"It's fine. We'll talk later." You reassured.
"Yeah." He nodded and opened your front door. He stopped himself and turned around. He quickly pressed a kiss to your cheek and left. You smiled to yourself, placing your hand on the same cheek he had kissed.
You walked into the kitchen, almost in a daze, "So...?" Marley began, "What's the deal with you and Jeff?"
"There is no deal. We're just friends." You shrugged, warming up water.
"That seemed a little more like friends. Your blushing and all he did was kiss your cheek." Marley pointed out.
"Do you think it's too soon? To move on?" You asked nervously.
"No, I don't. There's no timeline on when you have to move on. You move on whenever you want to." Marley told you.
"Okay." You nodded, thinking about it, "I think I'm ready." You nodded. Marley flashed you an encouraging smile.
-
You found yourself in the same place you had when everything started. Staring at a glass of alcohol, only this time, you didn't feel the urge to cry.
"Why're you here alone?" Marley asked.
"Just waiting." You answered, bringing your head up and off your hands. The door opened, and you felt the breeze of the cold Buffalo air hit your arms.
You heard the barstool next to you being pulled out and felt the presence sit down, "What can I get you, sir?" Marley asked, flashing the man a smile.
"Let's get the lady a drink," Jeff smirked.
"Alrighty." Marley nodded and whipped up a drink for you.
"Was wondering when you'd make it." You smiled, leaning in and pressing a kiss to his lips.
"Ran into a bit traffic." He answered.
"Here you are." Marley placed the drink in front of you, before walking off to serve someone else.
"Did you think we'd get here? Last year we were just getting to know each other, and now, you're coming home with me for Christmas."
"I did." Jeff nodded, "Somewhere in my head, I knew we would get here."
"Well, I'm glad you bought me a drink that night. If you hadn't, we probably wouldn't be here today." You smiled.
"Thank God I did." Jeff smiled back.

@espressoth and I have been talking for quite a while about how to resolve The Quinn Issue within the, like, pocket universe that is Moonlit Museum Babes, and I finally decided to illustrate it.
Quinn switches up his game a little by taking a prisoner, stealing and turning Ines, then to twist the knife, setting her on Sam and Marley when they come to retrieve her. The combination of Quinn being somewhat weak from a recent turning and Marley being Severely Pissed (2+ of her people having been hurt by him) ends with Quinn dead and Ines snapping back to herself, horrified, before passing out.
Sometime later, she wakes in her own bed, partners nearby with tea and blood bags and so much affection. At least one of them is with her around the clock, offering comfort and insight. She has a hard time at first, terrified to be around anyone but them, but eventually settles well into the vampire life. Spending forever minding her museum and guiding strays (that’s another story) doesn’t sound too bad.

iii. Angel, The Princess and the Pogue Series
And even though we live inside a dangerously empty life. You always seem to bring the light, you always seem to bring the light.
Series Masterlist
Pairing: JJ Maybank x fem!reader
Warnings: 18+ ONLY, mentions of alcohol, mentions of drug use, mentions of suicide, mentions of alcoholism and addiction, swearing, if there are any others please let me know.
Summary: JJ spends a late night with y/n and finds out they’ve got a lot more in common than it seems.
Words: 2863
As soon as the last school bell chimed Thursday afternoon, the gang jumped from their seats and headed straight for John B’s van. JJ lingered in the hallway, leaning against a set of lockers outside of y/n’s class as he waited for her. He had spent any chance he had during the school day around her. It was like she was a beacon of light, a beacon of hope, after so many things in his life had gone wrong. Of course, he wasn’t sure if she even found him remotely attractive in that way, but he sure as shit thought she was.
Y/N’s class had finally dismissed for the day and she stepped out into the hall, smiling as she saw JJ who was standing there with a big goofy grin on his face. “You didn’t have to wait for me, I could’ve walked out to the van on my own.” She commented.
JJ pushed off the lockers, falling in step beside her, an arm draping loosely over her shoulders. Her heartbeat quicker in her chest, though she tried to play it off, letting her expression remain calm. “A princess should never walk alone.” He teased, pushing the front door of the school open with his opposite hand.
“Not sure I’m a princess.” She retorted, rolling her eyes dramatically which caused him to laugh.
“Well, that’s your new nickname, sorry princess.” He let go of her shoulder and jogged forward to the van, meeting Kiara for their secret handshake before sending a salute in John B’s direction.
“You ready to fish, y/n?” Kiara asked, hopping in after her into the van and shutting the door behind them. Again, she was sandwiched between Kiara and JJ, which of course she didn’t mind at all.
“Yeah, I think I’ve only fished once in my life, with a cousin in Montana. But I didn’t catch shit and refused to go after that.” She picked at her cuticles, watching as the van started cruising down the street, John B’s free hand moving to grab Sarah’s who sat in her usual spot in the passenger seat.
“Well, we’re kinda experts at this, so if you don’t at least catch one fish you’ve got some bad juju on you.” Pope responded, earning a smack to the chest from Kiara. “Damn Kie, it’s just a joke!” The gang laughed, John B continuing to drive until he pulled over at a dingey corner store, JJ hopping out of the back seat and going inside. Sarah started belting out the lyrics to a Bob Marley tune as they waited, JJ emerging minutes later carrying two cold packs of Natural Light.
“Can’t fish without beer, that’s a Pogue sin!” He claimed, shutting the door as he nestled back into his spot beside y/n. Five minutes later they pulled into the docks, John B parking his van in an empty spot before everyone hopped out one-by-one. The boat John B had was not the prettiest, but it just showed its resilience. He hopped in first before helping Sarah get in, JJ passing up the beer for John B to set down in the boat.
Y/N, Pope, and Kiara got in after, JJ waiting on the dock for John B’s signal to push off. He gave it a swift push after a nod from the other man, jumping in as John B turned the keys in the ignition, driving the boat off into the deeper portion of the water.
“It’s beer o’clock!” JJ commented, opening one end of the first case and passing out beers to everyone, including y/n. She opened the can and took a long swig, admiring the water as they trolled in the deep.
“We’re gonna want to go to the far side, that’s where the fish are feeding right now.” John B noted, the speed of the boat increasing as he headed in that direction. Sarah turned on the radio, the music wafting as they sped farther away from shore towards the sweet spot where they’d anchor down at.
Y/N’s hair whipped in the wind, taking in the view as they cruised along the water. The Outer Banks truly was paradise on earth, as the sign had stated when she first arrived. She wasn’t sure how she would feel, being in a new town for her final year of high school, but she just felt meant to be there, like it was fate.
Soon enough the boat slowed, Pope grabbing the anchor and tossing it in when John B instructed him to, finally turning off the ignition and sitting back in his seat, taking a heavy swig of his beer.
“Alright, let's get the poles set up.” John B took the poles that were slid tight against the side of the boat, handing one to each person aboard before opening the container of worms. JJ pulled a knife from his pocket, cutting a few longer worms in half, everyone grabbing a piece.
“Can you put it on yourself, princess?” JJ questioned, wrapping his worm tight on his hook before inspecting y/n’s in her hand. She scoffed, following what JJ had just done, wrapping the worm around the hook, stabbing it through until it was stuck tight.
“How’s this?” She tilted her head to the side, sticking her tongue out at him. JJ displayed his middle finger playfully at her, finishing the last little bit of his beer before he moved to the bow of the boat, standing up and casting his rod.
Y/N moved to stand next to Sarah and Pope, casting out as they did and making sure not to cross lines, as Pope had told instructed her not to do. It wasn’t long before the Pogues were reeling in fish, taking them off and inspecting them before tossing them back in the cool water. They seemed to make a competition of it, seeing whose fish was bigger and how many fish they could catch.
Ten minutes had gone by, everyone but y/n catching a fish. “Maybe you were right Pope, I’ve clearly got some bad juju following me.” She huffed, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear.
“Nah, you’re just not doing it right.” JJ motioned her over to him where he stood at the bow, having y/n watch him cast. “See, I cast it out and I let it sink a bit before I start slowly reeling in. You gotta jiggle it a bit now and then too. Now you try.” He reeled in completely, his eyes on her as she took her turn. She listened to his notes, casting out far and waiting briefly before she started to reel, stopping after a few turns of the handle to jiggle her line. Sure enough, after a few turns of the handle she felt a bite, tugging sharply to ensure it was on the hook. Her line started moving from left to right as the fish tried to swim away.
“Fuck, I got one!” She cried out, reeling it in bit by bit, listening to JJ as he coached her through it. Soon enough the fish was above the water, y/n jumping up and down happily. The Pogues clapped behind her, cheering her on as she put her finger in the fish's mouth just as she had seen Sarah do, carefully freeing the hook from where it had been caught.
“We need to document this!” Kiara stated, opening the camera on her phone. “Say...fish food!” Y/N smiled at the camera, allowing the woman to snap a few pictures before she looked up at JJ proudly.
“Great job, and now a kiss.” JJ instructed, taking a swig from his second beer.
“For you or the fish?” The boat became dead silent at y/n’s words, JJ’s cheeks flashing crimson as he choked on the swig of beer. “I’m kidding.” That was a lie, she would’ve kissed him. She pecked the fish near its eyes before tossing it back into the water with a smile.
They continued to fish until the sun started to lower in the sky, y/n finally catching five and Kiara catching the most with eleven. The Pogues settled back into the boat, the music softly playing, the fishing poles now stashed away as they continued to sip on their beers.
“So, y/n, you said it’s just you and your sister?” Sarah chirped, leaning back into John B’s embrace.
“Uh yeah, she’s great. She’s actually working a double shift tonight at the hospital, but she told me to tell you guys hello and she can’t wait to meet you all sometime.” Pope trolled the boat on the route back towards the docks, taking another swig from his can.
“What about your parents?” He blurted out, receiving a hard smack from Kiara.
“You don’t have to answer that y/n.” She retorted, a death glare meeting Pope’s confused expression.
“N-No, it’s alright.” She swallowed, looking down at her hands as she continued. She’d eventually have to share; it might as well be now. And she’d had three beers, the liquid courage all she needed. “Well, my parents, my sister, and I lived here until I was three. My mom moved us after...well, after my dad shot himself. He battled with depression his whole life and the depression finally won.” John B turned the music off as she spoke, everyone going silent, even JJ.
“My mom couldn’t enjoy living here after my dad’s death, so she packed us up and we moved to Montana. My Aunt and Uncle live out there, so she wanted to be closer to family. My mom became a shell of a person, she couldn’t get over losing my dad and so she coped with alcohol. She was good at hiding it at first, sipping from a water bottle at my sister’s high school graduation, or adding a splash to her morning cup of coffee. Eventually it just got worse and she developed cirrhosis of the liver. She died a year ago from it.” Y/N cleared her throat with a sip of beer. “Enough of my sad, shitty life, the sunsets sure are beautiful here.”
JJ knew how she felt, all too well. Though his mother left him, and his piece of shit father was alive, he knew the struggles of having a parent with an addiction. He put a hand on her thigh, startling her briefly before her body untensed, enjoying the comforting gesture.
“Yeah, it really is.” Kiara agreed, eager to move the conversation away from y/n’s family, as it was clear she was done talking about it. “Ya’ll down for a dip?” Before anyone can protest Kiara is shimmying out of her shorts and top, her body clad in a navy-blue bikini as she hopped off the boat into the water.
“Hell yeah!” Pope added, pulling off his shirt as he dove in next to her. Sarah and John B joined them, jumping hand-in-hand off the boat.
“Shit, I forgot to put my bottoms on.” Y/N noted, Kiara leaning up on the edge of the boat beside the woman.
“It’s fine, just go in your underwear. It’s basically the same thing.” She let go of the boat, floating on her back in the water.
JJ stood up beside y/n, tossing his shirt off, giving y/n a view of his bare chest. His chest was tanned from the sun and chiseled; his arm muscles taut as he stretched them over his head. He met her gaze, a smirk playing on his lips as he noticed her eyes on him.
“C’mon, princess.” He joked before he dove off the boat and under the water, emerging seconds later, shaking out his blonde locks.
“Alright, I’m coming.” Y/N pulled her shirt up and set it on the seat, JJ’s eyes instinctively taking in her breasts clothed in a tiny orange bikini top. She pushed down her shorts, her black lace cheeky panties catching JJ’s attention, his breath hitching in his throat. Her body was gorgeous. She moved to the edge of the boat, John B and Sarah egging her on as she jumped in.
The water was cool, enveloping her body and refreshing her skin. She stayed under for a moment before resurfacing, whipping her hair off her face. They all waded around in the water, John B and Pope starting a war over who could splash the other the hardest.
JJ floated over to y/n, taking in the sight of her again beside him. Breathtaking, as always. “Sorry about your parents.” He mumbled, running a hand through his wet, shaggy hair.
“It’s alright, I’ve been through tons of therapy by now to know ‘it’s not my fault’, ‘addiction is a disease’, ‘depression can develop in the happiest people’. Blah, blah, blah.” She mocked herself, her lip quivering slightly at her words.
“My dad’s an alcoholic and a drug addict.” JJ admitted. “Used to beat the shit outta me. Luckily that bastard is far gone, haven’t seen him since he left over a year ago. So, we’ve got that in common. The parent with an addition, I mean. And you know, I’m here for you. Or whatever.” He mumbled, trying to seem nonchalant about the offer.
“Thanks, JJ. You’re a good guy.” It had been awhile since he heard that, but it made his heart soar knowing she felt that way.
They swam until the sun had disappeared in the sky, heading into shore and docking the boat once again. They had air-dried by that point and pulled their clothes back on, everyone hopping out of the boat and heading for the van.
“Alright, John B do you mind dropping me off at The Wreck? I promised to help my parents clean up tonight.” Kiara asked, leaning back against the seat of the van.
“Yeah, sure Kie. We’ll drop you off first.” They drove towards The Wreck, everyone exhausted from the day of school followed by their boating adventure. As the gang talked amongst themselves, y/n’s eyes started to drift shut, her body lulling until she leaned her head against JJ’s shoulder, startling him at first. He took one look at her sleeping, a smile creeping onto his face, and he let her sleep, his fingers tracing lightly against the skin of her thigh as they drove.
They dropped Kiara off first, then Pope, dropping Sarah off at her place after, but not before she gave John B a soft goodnight kiss.
“Alright, let’s head to y/n’s place.” John B looked back at JJ, noticing y/n still asleep on his shoulder.
“Let her sleep, JB. We can just bring her back to your place for the night.” JJ announced, his hand still tracing her thigh.
“Dude, you’ve got it so bad for her.” John B replied, backing out of Sarah’s driveway and heading towards the Château.
“Shut up.” He retorted, shooting up his middle finger for John B to see in his rearview mirror.
“Is it so bad if you did? I’m with Sarah, and I couldn’t imagine my life without her.” John B turned down the road towards his place, glancing at JJ from his mirror every so often.
“M’not good at this stuff, JB.” JJ had never really held down a steady relationship. He got girls, for sure, but all were just one-night stands, nothing more. If he was being totally honest, he didn’t know if he deserved to be loved by someone like John B and Sarah. He didn’t know if someone could actually love all his broken pieces, and he didn’t want to feel like a burden on anyone.
The van pulled to a stop, John B hopping out and heading inside. JJ wrapped one arm behind y/n’s back, scooting her until his other arm scooped under her legs, pulling her up and out of the back seat. He carried her in his arms, y/n’s eyes fluttering open, blinking in the night sky.
“What are you doing?” She mumbled, her head lulling to look up at JJ as they entered the shack.
“I didn’t want to wake you, you just looked...peaceful. We can take you home if you’d like.” Y/N shook her head, letting him carry her until he kicked open his bedroom door, setting her down gently onto his comforter.
“I’ll stay, if that’s okay. I don’t really enjoy being home alone when Bailey’s gone all night.” She fell back against his bed, taking in the sight of his room. It was messy, but she expected that from a guy like him, although the comforter was soft and his mattress plush underneath her back.
“Yeah, of course you can stay. You can stay here anytime.” He glanced at her as she pushed her body under his covers, nuzzling her face into his pillow. “M’gonna sleep on the couch. If you need me, you can come get me…” Before he could finish his sentence y/n’s eyes closed, her breathing heavier as she drifted to unconsciousness again.
“Goodnight, y/n.” JJ whispered, creeping out of his room and shutting the door. He walked into the living room and plopped down on the couch, a huge smile on his face. She had him wrapped around her finger, an angel in his hell, and she had know idea.

Chosen Twins Ch 2 : The Escape
Author’s note: Try and guess Marley’s hogwarts house, I put a few clues in this chapter and the first one. Happy guessing! :D
Marley looks out the window while serving tea and coffee to Petunia and Vernon. A light screeching sound coming from outside. Pushing the curtain back, she sees owls of all sizes and colors sitting on cars, light posts, and electrical lines.
“You know what I love about Sundays.” Vernon says wistfully.
“No post.” Harry answers.
Marley half smiles at the memory of what had happened for the past week and a half. Letters were finding themselves mailed to the two of them, some even addressed to the cupboard itself. All of them were intercepted, taken, torn, and burned. She half thought Vernon might buy a shredder just to get rid of them faster, but for every letter destroyed more kept showing up. Before now Marley never had something mailed to her. The bright red wax seal with a large H stamped into it. She’s seen on Petunia’s soap operas use wax seals on letters and dramatically gasp when opening them.
“Exactly no..” Vernon trails off as a letter shoots through the chimney.
Suddenly more and more letters begin coming through, swirling in the air around the five of them. Dudley jumps up and into his mother’s arms. Harry swings his arms up and around to catch one of the flying letters. Marley looks towards Petunia who is busy tending to Dudley, Vernon is busy panicking and dodging letters. Marley knocks over a vase of flowers from the table as she goes to pick up the flowers. She grabs a letter from the floor and hides it in her bra. Whatever this letter was for, it was to her and she was going to do whatever it takes to keep it.
Harry grabs his letter and runs to the cupboard. Vernon chases him and grabs him before he can unlock the cupboard door, sending both of them sprawling on the floor, wrestling over a letter.
“Those are Harry’s letters! Let go!” Marley yells trying to get Vernon off of him.
“That’s it!” Vernon pushes Marley off of him.” We are going away, Pack your things!”
Petunia grabs Harry and Marley, shoving them into a cupboard.
Marley has a smile plastered on her face and can’t help laughing.
“Where do you think we’re going?” Harry asks.
“I don’t know but I got a letter.” Marley takes it out of her bra. “ And it’s all mine.”
She rubs her thumb over the wax seal. A dried bit of the wax flakes off.
“Aren’t you going to open it?” Harry asks.
“It’s not safe yet.” Marley stuffs the letter back as she hears the door knob rattle. “Grab your stuff.”
Marley throws her few clothes into the shared trash bag. She puts in her best pair of running shoes.
“Pack yours too, Harry.” She holds the bag out to him.
“You can’t be serious, where would we go?” Harry puts his shoes in.
“Anywhere is better than here. I have paper and pencils. I’ll be an art busker. You handle the money, we can keep it in this hat.” Marley puts a baseball cap in the bag.
“Where would we live?” Harry adds more clothes into the bag.
“On the street, bring some good socks.” Marley tosses in a pocket knife that Harry recognizes.
“You stole that from Dudley’s room.”
“He doesn’t use it. We might need it on the street.” She grabs a few more socks.
“For what?”
“Protection, or pencil sharpening.” Marley ties up the bag.
Aunt Petunia swings open the door and grabs the two by the shoulders. “Come along children.”
“Where are we going?” Marley asks. The cogs turning in her head, if she knows where they're going maybe they could run off. Petunia and Vernon wouldn’t bother looking for them.
“Does it matter?Get in the car.” Petunia snaps.
Marley picks at the loose threads of the seat’s interior to pass the time. Her head begins to ache.Her ears pound, all she can hear is thumping. It feels as though her brain is being squeezed. Suddenly Marley’s eyes turn glassy and images start flashing and blurring together in her mind. A large bearded man, an umbrella, Dudley screaming, Vernon and Petunia angry, a cake. She’s still in the jostling and bumpy car ride.
Harry looks over at his sister and sees her hands are shaking.
“What’s wrong?” He whispers.
“I saw something.” She answers.
“I thought it only happened at night?”
“Me too.” She looks out the window to the rocky shore, and sees a small shack on its own island.
“What did you see?” Harry asks.
“A big bearded man, with an umbrella, and cake. Vernon and Petunia get really angry with him. I think he might hurt Dudley, but we can use that as our distraction and run off with him.” Marley explains.
“How do you know the bearded man is safe?”
“I have a feeling, and you never bet against me, right.” She confirms then adds. “Besides if he’s not, I still have a knife.”
“Enough chatting, back there!” Vernon yells parking the car.
Once out of the car, the only thing Marley can smell is seaweed, and the salty winds of the ocean. She huddles with Harry as a big gust of wind blows over the two of them. A rowboat and oars sits on the shore. The five get in the boat as Marley and Harry row, she wonders if she can swim. She’s never been in a pool but it must be pretty easy. If you’re thrown in water you can learn pretty fast. If worse comes to worst she and Harry can just float but the bags might weigh them down. If she and Harry steal the row boat one day leaving the Dursley’s trapped, that might buy them time. The boat bumps into the rocky shore, Marley grabs Harry to avoid being thrown into Aunt Petunia.
Later than night a storm rolls in. Marley and Harry sleep on the floor near the fire. Harry put Marley closest to the fire since she’s smaller and gets colder easily. Every flash of lightning and crack of thunder woke Marley up. She pulls herself up and lays beside her brother.
Marley looks down at the drawing of a birthday cake and up at her brother.
“Happy Birthday, Harry.”
“Happy Birthday, Marley.” He says throwing an arm around her.
“Should we make a wish?”
“Yeah, on the count of three, one two three.” They blow on the cake drawing in dirt.
The door to the shack began to be banged on, once twice thrice. Dudley runs to one part of the room, with Harry grabbing Marley and running behind a part of the wall that sticks out. Vernon and Petunia run into the room. Vernon carrying a shotgun. The door opens to reveal a large bearded man.
“That’s him, Harry.” Marley whispers.
“Sh.” Harry hushes peeking out.
“Sorry, about that.” The man picks up the door and puts his umbrella away.
“I demand that you leave at once!” Vernon yells aiming the shotgun.
“Dry up Dursley you great prune.” The large man bends the barrel of the gun upwards, it going off in the process.
“Harry, we can run now, and take the boat.” Marley suggests taking a few steps away from him.
The large man mistakes Dudley for Harry. Harry grabs Marley’s hand and steps out from their hiding place.
“I’m Harry, and this is Marley.” He says.
“I’ve got something for the both of you’s.” The large man takes out a box,” ‘friad I might have sat on it but I imagine it tastes fine just the same.”
Harry opens the box and Marley swallows loudly. It’s the cake, just as she had seen in her episode in the car.
“Thank you.”
“Not everyday, you turn eleven.” The large man’s attention turns to Marley, “ And you, still a wee thing. The both of you’s have some cake.”
The large man sits on the couch, takes out his umbrella, and makes the fire grow larger.
“Excuse me, who are you?” Harry asks. Marley nods in agreement putting the cake down.
“Rubeus Hagrid, keeper of keys and grounds of Hogwarts.” The large man answers tending to the fire.
“Like my letter.” Marley whispers.
“Of course, the two of you probably know all about hogwarts.” Hagrid says.
“Sorry, no.” Harry answers.
“Blimey, didn’t the two of you’s ever wonder where your parent’s leaned it all from.”
“Learned what?” Marley asks clearly.
“You’re wizards.” Hagrid states.
“No, we’re just Harry and Marley. We’re just twins.”
“Have you ever made anything happen?” Hagrid asks. “ When you’re angry or scared?”
Marley looks at Harry, “ The zoo, when we were pushed.”
Hagrid hands Harry a letter and then looks at Marley. “You’re a clever girl to hide your letter.”
Marley nods with a small smile,taking her letter out of hiding and begins to read it as Harry reads his.
“They will not be going there!” Vernon snaps. “We swore when we took them in we’d stop this rubbish.”
“You knew?” The twins say.
“Of course we knew. My perfect sister, a witch. I was the only one to see her for what she really was, a freak.” Petunia says. “Then she met that Potter, got herself blown up and we were stuck with you two.”
“What about the car crash?” Marley asks.
“Car crash!” Hargid starts,” It’s an outrage! A scandal! These two have had their names known since they were born!”
“Why?” Marley asks looking up Hagrid, a little unsure, she always hated angry people.
“They will be going to Hogwarts, one of the finest wizarding schools, under one of the finest headmasters that Hogwarts has ever seen, Albus Dumbledore.”
As the adults argue, Marley sees Dudley eat the birthday cake.
“I will not pay to have some crackpot old fool to teach them magic tricks.” Vernon snaps.
Hagrid points his umbrella, “ Never insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me.”
Hagrid’s eyes look off to Dudley eating the birthday cake. He swishes the umbrella towards Dudley and a pigs tail sprouts.
Marley can’t help but laugh at the tail. Dudley, Vernon and Petunia running off to separate room to try and fix it.
“I’d appreciate it if you two didn’t tell anyone at Hogwarts about that, strictly speaking I’m not allowed to do magic.” Hagrid explains to the two.
“Okay. “Harry agrees.
“I’m good with secrets.” Marley nods.
“Running a bit behind, we best be off, unless you’d rather stay of course.” Hagrid asks.
“We packed a go bag just in case we ever needed to run away.” Marley grabs her things and tosses Harry his bag.
Hagrid gives her nod with a sad smile,” You’re very prepared.”
Walking down the London street Harry reads off the list to Hagrid. Marley is just happy to be away from the Dursleys and walks behind them.
“Can you really find all this in London?” Harry asks.
“If you know where to look.” Hagrid answers taking the children into a pub.
Marley looks at all the people in the dimly lit pub. The bartender speaks to Hagrid but he brushes him off now that he’s on official business. The headache begins again, and she grabs onto Harry’s shoulder to steady herself. Her head is swimming.
“Marley!” Harry yells, steadying her.
Hagrid stops and gets the two to sit down. Her eyes go glassy again, and she closes her eyes once the images begin. A purple man, and a snarling gnawing beast.
“Are you alright, Marley?” Hagrid asks.
“Yeah it happens.” Marley answers holding her head.
The three have captured the attention of the patrons of the pub.
“Sure you don’t want your, usual, Hagrid?” The barkeep asks putting down some water for Marley.
“I’m sure, just helping the Potter twins buy their school supplies.” Hagrid says keeping a hand on Marley, poor thing looks like she’d jump out of her skin at the drop of a hat.
“Bless my soul, it’s Harry Potter.” The barkeep says. The chattering in the pub stops and all eyes are on the three.
“Welcome back, Mr. and Ms. Potter.” A wizard says.
Others chime in to get a glimpse of the prophesied twins. A man with a nervous disposition and a dark purple turban approaches the two.
“Potter, what a pleasure to meet you.” The man says.
Marley looks up and sees the purple turban, her eyes widen.
“Hello professor, “ Hagrid says,” This is Professor Quirrel, he’ll be your Defense against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts.”
“Nice to meet you.” Harry says puting his hand out.
Marley glares at him and nudges Harry with her foot under the table.
“Fa-fascinating subject, not that you’ll need it Ay’ Potter.” Quirrel sputters out.
Once Marley is calm enough to continue, the three walk out to the back of the pub to a dead end with a brick wall.
“Why does everyone know about us?” Harry asks.
“I don’t think I’m the person to tell you why.” Hagrid says.
He taps on the bricks with his umbrella.
“I don’t believe I like that professor.” Marley says.
“Bit of an odd fellow, but Dumbledore hired him.” Hagrid admits.
The brick wall opens. Harry and Marley stand and stare in amazement.
“Harry, Marley, welcome to Diagon Alley.” Hagrid and the two walk through.
The streets are full of people getting their shopping done. The smell of roast chestnuts wafts outward towards the stores. The apothecary shop smells of dried herbs. The three pass a pet store with owls out front, some screeching, others pruning themselves. Several children crowd around a broom display.
“How are we to pay for the supplies?” Harry asks.
“We haven’t got any money, I’m afraid.” Marley adds.
“Your money is in there. Gringotts bank.” Hagrid says opening the door.
The bank is larger than any normal bank Marley has ever seen. She’s also never seen people quite like the ones in charge of the bank.
“Uh Hagrid, what exactly are these things?” Harry asks.
Marley pinches Harry and whispers “ Don’t be rude.”
“They’re goblins.” Hagrid says overhearing the twin’s whispers. He leads the two to the large desk with a goblin behind a book.
“The Potters would like to make a withdrawal.” Hagrid says.
The goblin looks down at the children. Marley gives a little wave.
Hagrid goes searching in his pockets to find the key. “ here’s the little devil, and there’s something else. It’s about you know what in vault you know which.” He hands over an envelope.
“Very well.” The goblin says.
The three of them are taken to a deeper part of the bank that looks almost like a mine complete with a track and large carriage looking carts. The goblin drives the carriage to the vault and announces “ Vault 687.”
Hagrid hands the goblin the lantern and key. Harry and Marley climb out of the carriage looking around.
“Woah.” Marley says softly.
“Yeah..brillant.” Harry adds.
The goblin opens the vault door, piles upon piles of gold coins lay there.
“Didn’t think your parents would leave you two with nothing, did you?” Hagrid looks towards the twins.
“It’s like Ducktales.” Marley says looking at the gold. Enough for the both of their supplies and a little more is taken out.
The goblin takes them to another vault to retrieve the you know what.
“Psst, Harry.” Marley whispers. “What do you think is in there?”
“I don’t know.” He whispers then asks Hagrid,” What’s in there?”
“Can’t tell you Harry, hogwarts business.” Hagrid answers, “Very secret.”
Hagrid picks up the small bag. “Best not to mention this to anyone.”
Harry and Marley pick out their books for the year, and small supplies first. Walking down the streets Harry looks down at the list of the supplies. Marley had snuck a pen and was crossing things off her list as they shopped.
“We still need wands.” Harry says.
“Yup that’s the last thing.” Marley confirms.
“Wands, well there’s Olivanders no place better.” Hagrid points in front of them a little ways.” You two go get your wands, and I’ll run my one thing I got to do. I won’t be long.”
Harry and Marley quickly walked to the wand shop.
“Can you believe this? We’re wizards, we can do magic.” Marley says coming to terms with what all has happened in one day. “I wonder what we learn first.”
“First we should buy the wands then worry about that.” Harry says opening the door to the shop. The bell above them rings but no one is behind the desk.
“That’s odd.” Harry turns to Marley.
“All of this is odd.” Marley retorts looking at the boxes along the walls.
“Hello.” Harry calls.
An older gentleman with white shaggy looking hair slides to the side from a bookshelf ladder.
“I wondered when I’d be seeing you two. Mr. Potter, Ms.Potter.” The man smiles.
He climbs down from the ladder. “One at a time then, you first Harry.”
His fingers flicker between wand boxes as he searches for the right one.
“Seems like only yesterday, your mother and father were in here buying their first wands.” He says handing Harry a wand.
Harry stares at him waiting for something to happen.
“Well give it a wave.” The older man says.
Harry waves the wand and wand boxes fall off the shelves. He set the wand back down carefully.
“Apparently not.”Ollivander says and looks above him for another wand.
“I’m sure there’s a wand for you.” Marley gestures towards the ones on the walls.
“Perhaps this.” Ollivander takes one and hands it to Harry. He grabs another and sets it off to the side.
Harry whirls the wand at a vase of flowers. The vase shatters.
“No. No. Definitely not that one.” Ollivander goes near the back of his store. “I wonder…”
He comes back with a new wand and curiously looks at Harry before handing him the wand.
Harry grips the wand as he has all of them, he barely moves it before winds fill the shop. Dust from all wand boxes flies into the air.
“Curious.” Ollivander says.
“What’s curious.” Harry asks.
“I remember every wand I’ve ever sold, and this one has a phoenix feather in it. The phoenix gave one other feather, but your wands brother is the same wand that gave you that scar.” Ollivander explains.
Marley is in a trance by a lightly colored wand with a braid handle of gold. She reaches her hand out to grab the wand from the box. She bumps the box and it goes crashing to the floor.
Ollivander spins around and sees Marley pick up the wand to hand it back to him “I um sorry, it’s very beautiful.”
“Interesting...Give it a wave, then.” Ollivander crosses his arms in thought, the wand she had picked up was an authentic silver lime wand with a dragon heartstring. Not too rigid, not too flexible.
Marley gives it a wave and the vase that Harry broke fixes itself and the flowers begin to bloom and release the most intoxicating scent of jasmine and sakura blossoms.
“Remember you two, the wand chooses the wizard, it’s not always clear why. But I think it is clear that we can expect great things from you two.” Olivander says to the twins.
“Harry. Marley.” Hagrid taps on the glass of the store windows. “ Happy Birthday.” He holds two owls in cages.
“They're so cute.” Marley coos over the owls.
Hagrid hands one cage to Harry and the other to Marley.
“I’m naming him Tea Spoon and no one is stopping me.” Marley says petting the grey owl with her finger through the bars of the cage.
“He’s all your’s.” Hagrid says.

I'd love to see your interpretation of Sam and/or Camelopardalis, and I would probably cry if you drew Marley lol They're my favorite of my Redacted OCs and I have a lot of art and picrews of them on both my main blog and the art one (catella-ars) under the tag "pack aunt marley." Thank you <3
Here’s Sam and Camelpardalis! I’ll do Marley soon but I’ll just post this so I can get to my other requests :)
(because I couldn’t do your OC tonight I made them semi colored)
- Sam always had really long and pretty eyelashes that get in the way (as someone with glasses, constantly wearing a mask and hella long eyelashes I feel you man. They touch everything)
- I’ve also added a bunch of scars because he got into a car accident and wanted to properly show that
- he’d like exclusively wear plaid and his pilot jacket all the time, even when it’s hot(might be his entire wardrobe)
- I haven’t listened to cam’s storyline in a while, but I do remember them being violently blue and bug-like as I imagined them
- fun fact, the little things on their eyelashes, ears and horns are bioluminescent!
- also yes, teef. Pointy teef :-)
That’ll be all for tonight, and also you can still request things until Sunday so don’t be afraid to ask!
#i love these characters#also yes long eyelashes gang#constantly touching my glasses and constantly my mask I live in hell#they’d be nice if I wasn’t constantly getting eyelashes in my eyes. im already blind stop thisss#also yes Sam has major dilf energy#redacted asmr#freggzartz#redacted asmr sam#redacted asks camelopardalis#redacted asmr fanart
