another thing about twilight. why is it that bella never ever seems to care that the cullens — imo carlisle especially — only care about her literally because they love edward? like of course that is majority of in-law situations in life, like i know that. but bella is like “this is my family! this is where i belong and who i belong with!” and then they all just up and leave her the moment edward tells them to. carlisle especially only seems to care about her imo (beyond the fact that he cares for all human lives) because he cares about edward. idk i would feel some kind of way about the cullens if they literally took me in and then dropped me like a hot potato based off whatever edward felt on any given day.
in a way alice is better and in a way she’s worse on this front. like okay, she and bella are best friends, that much is true. one of the things i will give stephenie meyers (because she’s nowhere near as bad as people claim. stephen king has no business criticizing her when his stories are some of the worst i’ve ever encountered) is she does create and develop actual believable friendships and relationships. bella and alice are very close and lovey dovey. but that makes it worse imo when alice abandons her alongside edward. because her friendship with bella is literally contingent on edward.
but at the same time she does have an actual relationship with bella and you get that she wanted what edward thought was best for bella’s life and she loves her and her heart is in the right place and all that good stuff. but idk. for me, if i were in that situation, i wouldn’t have taken the cullens in as warmly again in eclipse. like bella is all like “my family! we’re all together again!” when in reality i, and i think anyone with enough self-esteem, would be much colder to them. more distant and less open. because even if she’s taken edward back — because really his side of the leaving fiasco is actually more understandable than the entire family’s ditching her and then wanting to act like nothing ever happened seven months later — his family still proved that she’s merely an extension of edward to them. they’re a family, they’ve been a family for around 75-100 years. they’ve been together, functioning as a family unit town to town since before her grandparents were born. like she’s just a modern teenage girl who the one unmarried brother fell in love with and brought along for the ride. like they all abandoned her and had the whole thing with edward/alice/cliff diving/volturi not occurred then the entire family would have just never contacted her again in her life. idk. i get the impression more so from carlisle than any of the others but bella’s whole open heart, open arms thing is sadly pathetic. because she’s clinging to a family that could take or leave her at a moment’s notice.
and honestly some lots may disagree but i do highkey appreciate the fact that stephenie meyers tried to rectify a lot of people’s criticisms with bella, in midnight sun. like she tried to retroactively make it seem like a lot of the “bella is a parentified child and she’s so mature because she doesn’t mind it at all” “bella takes care of her parents because she’s old for her age” was just a first person character blindness on bella’s part and it was actually really messed up in edward’s eyes the way her parents treated her and how it shaped her personality. but personally i wish SM would have included edward realizing bella has a really low self-esteem and that’s why she takes whatever kind of love people offer her without complaint and resentment even after they’ve done her dirty, not because “the cullens are so amazing” and “i’m so lucky to belong with them!”

A Glimpse of the Future part 5
A/N: Ok, I swear to god, this is the finale of this story. I promise this time. This is broken up into three snapshots of time, so it jumps around. Also, I made myself cry, cause I want Papa!Sonny so fucking bad omg.
Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 4.5
Tags: some derogatory language about reader
Words: 1715
Taglist: @the-baby-bookworm @beccabarba @thatesqcrush @itsjustmyfantasyroom @stardust-fray @permanentlydizzy @infiniteoddball @ben-c-group-therapy @glowingmess @whimsicallymad @averyhotchner @mrsrafaelbarba @detective-giggles @reading--mermaid
You struggled not to pace in front of the mirror, your eyes locked to your swelling belly, covered by white lace. It’s not that you felt ugly or anything—in fact, you felt beautiful, glowing, even, every single day; Sonny made sure of that—but you knew what his family was thinking…or whispering in hush tones, just loud enough for you to hear as you walked by.
“Can you believe she’s pregnant?”
“I bet she stopped taking her birth control, planning on getting knocked up!”
“Poor Dominick…he needs to find a good, Catholic woman, and dump this cheap whore.”
You tried not to let the words get to you; Sonny warned you about his more…conservative family members. But you still felt like, well, shit. This was supposed to be the happiest moment of your life, and yet, you felt like you were tearing Sonny away from his family. Hell, even his father had been pissed—though Sonny assured you his Ma could put the fear of God into anyone.
A tear escaped your eye before you could stop it, and you watched it roll down your cheek in your reflection. Your eyes trailed down your body, taking in your wedding dress, stopping on your baby bump once more. There was no chance of a wedding early in your pregnancy—you were 22 weeks pregnant, and even this felt rushed. But it was a must to be married before you gave birth…at least that had to be right.
“Hey, don’t look so sad! It’s your wedding day!” Bella Carisi said, smiling, coming to stand next to you. She was less…involved in the church—she still went to Christmas and Easter mass with her family, but that was about it—and had gotten married while pregnant. She was completely on yours and Sonny’s side, and was incredibly supportive, as well as excited, for a cousin for her little girl to play with.
“Your family hates me,” you whispered, more tears threatening to fall.
Bella wrapped her arms around you, locking eyes with you in the mirror. “The important ones don’t hate you, and the rest fucking suck. Even Sonny can’t stand them, and Sonny loves everyone.” The tiniest smile appeared on your face and she grinned triumphantly. “There’s a smile! Come on, you’re marrying my only brother—be happy! Don’t worry about what those crazy church nuts are saying!”
“…but they’re going to be apart of my family, too,” you whispered.
Bella placed both her hands on your shoulders, turning you towards her. “Close your eyes—just do it. Now, picture Sonny, smiling that big goofy grin of his. Can you see it? Now picture him holding your baby in his arms.” You smiled as you pictured it, unable to stop yourself. “There. Now just keep that picture in your mind…at least until you see him at the altar, cause I’m positive that will be enough to make you smile.”
You opened your eyes, wiping the tears that had appeared. “Thanks, Bella.”
“Anytime…sister.” She gave you another hug before heading off to do whatever. You took a deep breath, moving towards the room that had drinks in it. You needed a water desperately. Which is when you ran into Sonny’s cousin and his wife, Deangelo and Denise Carisi; possibly the most conservative of his family members.
“Ah, I see Dominick’s whore is dressed in a façade of a bride,” Deangelo smirked sardonically. “You do realize the white dress means you’re pure, right?” He glanced at your pregnant belly. Denise laughed, her shrill voice driving a nail into your head.
You sighed, trying to shove your emotions back. “Why are you here then, if you don’t approve of this wedding?”
“Why, I’m here to support my mad cousin’s descent into Hell, of course,” he grinned, waving a hand as if it were obvious.
You were about to respond when a deep voice from behind you said, “I should’ve known it was you two making such a ruckus.” You turned your head to see Dominick Carisi Sr., glaring at Deangelo and Denise. “If you’re only here to give my son or his fiancée grief, then you are not welcome.”
“B-but sir, this—this harlot seduced Dom—”
“Get out, before I force you out,” he growled. Deangelo gave you one last scathing look before he took his wife’s hand and left. “You okay, delizia?” Dom Sr. asked softly, his big hand encompassing your entire shoulder.
You couldn’t stop the tears the formed. “Y-yeah, I just…thank you,” you mumbled, shocked that he came to your rescue.
“Of course. You’re my daughter, and you make Junior happy.” He looked into your eyes and you could’ve sworn he gave you the smallest smile. “Did you need something? A water?” And like that, the moment passed, and you took the glass of water, moving back to the bridal room.
*******************
You were sleeping in bed alone—Sonny got caught with a double shift. You tried staying awake for your husband, but you were too exhausted, and he had convinced you over the phone to go to bed. You awoke when you felt the bed dip, Sonny’s body moving under the covers next to you, an arm wrapping around your torso, a whispered “I love you,” and a soft kiss placed on your forehead. Then, your eyes flew open as you felt wetness coat your thighs.
“Sonny…baby,” you shook him, but sleep was pulling at him and he grumbled something unintelligible. “Dominick, I think my water just broke,” you said in a hushed tone.
“Mmm, that’s nice darlin’…WHAT?!” He jolted upright, flinging the sheets off him. He helped you sit up, rushing to grab you your overcoat and your slippers, pulling the coat onto your shoulders.
“Ooohh, time to go,” you moaned, cramps already starting. Sonny gently pulled you to your feet, shoving shoes on, grabbing wallet, keys, phone, and his jacket from the hook by the door as you shuffled past him, out into the cool night air. You knew if he could, he’d lift you, carry you to his truck, but there was no chance as you left your apartment behind.
******************
18 hours. You were in labor, screaming and pushing, for 18 hours. Sonny didn’t leave your side for a moment, gripping your hand, whispering encouraging words, even when you cursed him for this pain you were going through. He brushed your hair out of your face, stroked your cheek lovingly, pressed cold, damp washcloths to your face. Finally, finally, your child was born, a little baby girl. Once cleaned and rooms switched, you held your swaddled child, crying from exhaustion and such a profound happiness. Sonny was crying, too, watching you hold her.
“Would you like to hold your daughter, Dom?” you asked.
He was nodding, unable to saw anything, a soft sob bubbling up his throat. You passed her to him, and Sonny looked like he was struggling not to completely breakdown. He swallowed, taking a shaky breath. “Hey, little Rosa…” he whispered, rocking her gently. You smiled, watching him bounce her, your heart straining.
“You should sleep, Dom. You just worked a double before all this—” you started before he cut you off.
“Absolutely not. You just gave birth. You rest, baby.” Sonny looked back to the bundle in his arms, enthralled. “Besides, I don’t think I’m going to be tired for quite a while. I want to spend some time with Rosa.”
“You know that the nurses will watch her, right? And we can both sleep…at least until I feed her,” you grinned at him.
He looked longingly at Rosa. “I…don’t think I could….”
A nurse came in, then, and gently took Rosa from Sonny. At first, you didn’t think he was going to give her up, but finally, he released her, letting the nurse take her. And despite Sonny’s words, he passed out as soon as he sat down in the chair by your bed, his soft snores carrying you off into sleep.
********************
“Come on, Rosa, come to Momma,” you crooned, squatting in front of your one-year-old. Sonny was behind her, holding her up, but he let go of her as you called out to her. She remained standing, taking one step, then two. You gasped and then she fell back onto her butt, giggling, and you dropped your head in mock defeat.
“Let me try,” Sonny said, coming over to you. You switched places with him, taking Rosa’s little hands and pulling her to her feet. Sonny held his hands out to her, his smile bright. “My little Rosy, come here, baby, come to Papa.” Slowly, Rosa stumbled a few steps. She threw her arms out to reach for Sonny, but it threw her off balance, and she fell forward, Sonny catching her before she hit the ground. He stood up with her, lifting her as high as his arms would reach, and she laughed hysterically. “Wheeeee!” Sonny yelled, moving her throughout the air, and her laughter only got louder. You watched, your heart full, as he played with your daughter in your newly purchased living room, in your newly purchased house.
He brought her back down, placing her on the floor and letting her take off—all she did was crawl around the floor, grabbing her toys and chucking them across the room, only to crawl after them. “She’s so close to walking,” Sonny smiled, watching Rosa grab a small ball and roll it across the floor.
“And once she starts, she’ll never stop,” you replied. Sonny wrapped his arm around your shoulders, bringing you close to him and kissing the top of your head.
“No, no she won’t…” he agreed. You both stood in silence for a moment, just basking in the family moment. “What do you say we start trying for a sibling for her tonight?” Sonny asked, wiggling his eyebrow at you.
You giggled, shoving his side playfully. “Only if we can finally dress up as Cinderella and Prince Charming…I haven’t forgotten about that.”
Sonny barked out a laugh, moving to sit with Rosa, rolling her ball back to her. “I mean, I still have my tuxedo from our wedding….”
You couldn’t imagine your life being any better; a loving husband, a happy and healthy daughter, and a very bright looking future.

Currently Reading...
Life and Death - Stephenie Meyer
Day 1: Pages 1-15
Ok so before I start, some background. This is a gender-swapped rewrite of Twilight, released for the 10 year anniversary. The only thing I know about this book before reading it is that Edward is now called Edythe, and Bella is now called Beau.
Personally, I think the names were a mistake.
Edward is an old fashioned name that is still incredibly popular. Edythe is an obscure spelling of an old fashioned name that never came back into style. He should have been called Elinor. Especially since it would work with Bella’s Austen fixation, as Edward did.
Bella, short for Isabella, becomes Beau, short for Beaufort. I get the concept behind this one - Bella and Beau both mean beautiful. But Beaufort is a stupid name. I have never even heard of anyone being called Beaufort. She should have been Bram, short for Abraham. It has a similar feel to it as the original name, and there’s a cliché vampiric shout-out in there too.
Now, I’m also assuming that the ending has to be different too. Obviously it’s not possible for Beaufort to get pregnant with a demon baby in book four, so the smart thing to do would be to end this book with no room for a sequel. The two options I can think of are either they let James’ bite turn him; or Edythe accidentally loses control while trying to save him and kills him instead.
I like the ending where Beau dies. It’s poetic, it’s tragic, it’s Wuthering Heights. But Stephenie Meyer is a coward, so I think she's probably gone for the safe option of Beau becoming a vampire.
Now, to the book...
Ok, I’ve only just started and I am so done already. It’s like she’s literally taken each sentence, one by one, and made an effort to rewrite it slightly differently, like a teenager copying her friends homework, changing the answers just enough to look like she’s done it herself. For someone who knows Twilight as intimately as I do, it’s equally painful and laughable. How has the literal author managed to produce what is essentially a poor fanfic re-write?
Smeyer wrote this, apparently, to prove that this slushy love story isn’t about Bella being a girl who needs a man. She claims that she wanted to show that the story would be exactly the same if the roles were reversed. Immediately she fails.
Her sexism is obvious at every step, she’s so entrenched in gender roles, that she changes even small details about characters to fit her idea of how men and women should behave. It’s not “Billy Black”, it’s ��Bonnie Black and her husband”. And he hasn’t “done a lot of work on the engine”, she's “had a lot of work done”.
And there’s this weird bit she’s added right at the beginning, when Beau arrived at the airport in Port Angeles, he bumps into a pair of scary bad people and they get unrealistically aggressive until Charlie shows up. The only reason I can think of this being added is if these are the people who will then attack Beau in Port Angeles? Which I have a lot of issues with if that’s what happens.
Beau doesn’t cry when Bella does, because boys, evidently, don’t cry. Beau is unusually tall, because apparently, good looking boys are tall, never mind that Bella was 5’4’’.
On page 14 we get the name of the book dropped in, as well as a new line, “it’s not like anyone was going to bite me”. Hilarious.
This is torture.
Day 2: Did Not Finish
Ok, yeah, I can't do this. I'm not finishing this book.
She literally changed "I'd always been a bad liar" to "I'd never been a good liar", like come on, either change it or don't.
I did skip ahead to a couple of places to see if my predictions were correct.
I was right about the scary bad people at the airport... we could tell they were bad because they had tattoos and dyed hair. I knew she was going to have to come up with some other reason for Beau to get attacked, because her odd Mormon mind wouldn't accept the fact that boys also get raped. Literally, that situation could have gone exactly the same, she did not need to change it to fit gender norms. But SMeyer added in a fun little twist - the reason they decided to attack him was because he was with Charlie at the airport, and they hate cops, of course! So..... it's sexist AND pro-cop? Good fucking job, Stephenie.
I also skipped to the end - and I was right, it ended with the bite turning him. Apparently their only options were to let the venom work, or kill him. I guess girls aren't strong enough to stop themselves feasting or whatever. Ok Stephenie. Ok.
So basically, this book is terrible. It could have been a masterpiece. It could have been a fragile, clumsy little human boy falling for a towering, statuesque vampire goddess.
I might just write a better version. Watch this space, I guess.

Soulmates Part 10
Masterlist!
Kelsey was so pleased it was Friday she was swamped with paperwork. Her desk phone rang, pulling her away from her laptop screen. "Special Victims Unit, Detective Hardy", Kelsey greeted ", on it, text me the address, Mulhern" Kelsey saved her progress on her laptop. She looked around the building for her partner, but he was nowhere to be found. Kelsey called Elliot and ask him to meet her at Mercy Hospital.
They took the victims statement and collected the rape kit from the hospital. "Elliot, please let me find sonny before you tell the captain he is AWOL. His whole world came crashing down on him yesterday. His sister is married to a monster, and Sonny must feel responsible. He puts monsters in jail for a living, and he didn't see the beast under his nose." Eliott looked at the girl and nodded, "yeah, the poor bastard has got a lot going on right now. He doesn't need desk duty or a write-up." Kelsey smiled. "But if I'm covering for Carisi, your driving back to the station." Kelsey groaned, knowing it was the morning rush time traffic.
Carisi was sat in a bar in Harlem where nobody would recognize him, his empty beer bottle on the table. He had every intention to go to work this morning, but he felt as if the squad would judge him. It was his fault that he didn't see Tommy for what he was. He couldn't handle the looks. He was already in the firing line from his family; he didn't need it at work as well.
" Was the answer at the bottom of the bottle, or are you going to have another one," Sonny grunted to acknowledge the girl.
"What do you want, Hardy. Doesn't Barba need you for something." kelsey rolled her eyes and sat down as a bartender came over to take the order.
"Can I get two scrambled eggs on toast, one latte and one black coffee, please?" The Bartender wrote the order down, nodded and went to the kitchen to put the order in.
"What do you want, Hardy? I don't need the lecture." kelsey looked at the detective. He looked a mess.
"your family didn't take it well then?"
"What do you think?" Kelsey nodded
"Well, what I think is that you put yourself under too much pressure, Carisi. How many perps have lead double lives? Have children, wives and perfect lives. You see it day in and day out. They manipulate their way in and have everyone to their disposal. You or your family isn't to blame here; Tommy is, and now he sits in a jail cell where he belongs, and even when the monster gets out, he will be on the register for the rest of his life. There is nowhere he can hide from this." The Bartender returned with their coffee's and breakfast and left the two detectives alone.
"Ah, detective Hardy and Carisi, your back from your breakfast date. How did it go? Is Carisi giving Barba a run for his money? Or are you straight up just trying to screw them both?" Amanda seethed at Kelsey. Carisi jumped in before anyone could get a word in. "Well, Amanda, even if we were on a date which we weren't, but if we were, it would have nothing to do with you. You made it very clear to me where I stood when I asked you out. You said yes but invited your ex round to your apartment. you told me you were engaged the next day after I asked you out, Amanda, let me go, please." Amanda stormed out of the building away from Kelsey.
"what about my family, What about Bella, for christ sakes" Sonny huffed out.
"Well, you make sure that Tommy didn't touch your teenage niece, and when that is out of the way, your family will heal. It will take time. Sonny, they are hurt, confused and pissed. Your family don't know where to direct their anger, and you are just the easiest target for this. It will pass." He sighed
"What about Bella?"
"Well, Bella is a little different. She has just found out her newlywedded husband is a child molester and her brother helped get him arrested and convicted. Sonny get her to talk to someone, even if it's you or another family member or, better yet, a therapist. Sonny, Bella needs to know she has her support system behind her while she goes through this. for the first time in the meeting, Sonny smiled.
"Thank you, Doll. I feel a lot better now. She has already contacted a lawyer to start the proceedings for an annulment of her marriage." Kelsey nodded blankly at the detective.
"Sonny, we better go. Cragen won't be happy. I have already asked Stabler to cover for you. I don't want you getting into more trouble. Two detectives in the same week getting a write up when partnered with me, that's not looking good for my stats." Sonny laughed and paid the bill. Just as they left the bar, Sonny called shotgun, meaning Kelsey had to drive to the station.
Kelsey hailed a cab from the street. She gave an address to the cab driver and headed towards her location. When she arrived at her destination, and paid the $11 cab fare. Kelsey walked up to an apartment complex just as kelsey was going to push the buzzer. Someone came out of the building, letting the detective in. Kelsey knocked on door 34. Bella Carisi opened the door to the detective. Her eyes were bloodshot from crying. She was still in her PJs, and her was in a messy bun.
*5 pm*
Kelsey turned her laptop off at her desk and put her files in her bag. She doesn't usually wear her glasses, but she could feel a tension headache building. Kelsey sighed and fixed the thick opal shaped glasses on her face. She slung her jacket on and headed out the door.
Kelsey walked out to the building and on to the street. She leaned against a wall, closed her eyes and let out a long breath. She ordered an Uber back to hogan place. All she wanted was her soulmate. Kelsey got into her uber she rested her head against the cold window. Her head was exploding in pain. She has never had a headache like that before. When she arrived at Hogan Place, she made her way through the building to Rafael's office. When she reached the office, Carmen was packing up for the weekend. "Hey Kelsey, He is in but beware, he has a mega migraine." Kelsey nodded "thanks, Carmen." kelsey walked up to the door and knocked softly "nice glasses, detective, have a good weekend." kelsey smiled and entered the office. "Hey baby, We haven't seen or spoke since 4 am. I missed you." kelsey walked straight up to the lawyer and cuddle into his chest. Suddenly her headache was gone. Kelsey looked up to Rafael "how's your headache, Rafe?" Rafael looked shocked "suddenly gone." whatever was happening, the couple needed to see a specialist fast.
"Hey, I know a member of NYPD at your apartment is that last thing you want, but we need to talk." Bella sighed and closed her eyes.
"Come in, detective, make yourself at home." Kelsey walked into the Bellas apartment and sat down on a chair.
"How are you holding up?"
"What do you want, detective? you trying to cover my brothers mistake?"
"Your brothers mistake? Bella Sonny isn't at fault here. I know your hurt, angry, confused and disgusted, but this is no one fault except Tommy's. Bella, Tommy decided to betray and hurt a disabled girl, he decided to commit rape, he decided to rip your whole family. Not sonny, Not you and not your family's. The only person who is at fault is Tommy." A silence fell on the room as Bella grabbed the vodka bottle that was sat on the coffee table and took a swig out of it.
They sat in silence for a few minutes until Bella spoke up
"I know where you are coming from, detective. I appreciate it, but please see yourself out I want to be alone." Kelsey nodded
"Ok, but I'm cutting off your alcohol. The last thing Sonny needs is his sister needing her stomach pumped." Kelsey grabbed the vodka bottle and cleared the kitchen of all alcohol, and left the apartment.

Happy birthday Lila
I’ve noticed that when Adrien and Marinette celebrated their birthdays, it was never during school.
Chloe would never celebrate her birthday with the commoners. She just invites Adrien and Sabrina for a special spa vacation. (As a model, Adrien needs to have a flawless face and even a manicure)
But what happens when Lila’s birthday comes around?
Marinette for sure wouldn’t attend. The whole class knows she doesn’t like the girl.
As a result, it is peaceably agreed that Marinette can skip the surprise party planning the rest of the class is partaking in.
Alya suggests they inform Mrs Rossi as well.
Rose was the one who proposed they hold the party on Juleka’s family boat after Lila talked about how fun Prince Ali’s yacht party was.
Adrien asked where Marinette was, and was informed she would be skipping the party so as to avoid any unnecessary discomfort.
Feeling bad for Marinette and not wanting to spend time with Lila any more than necessary, Adrien volunteers to spend time with Marinette so she won’t be lonely. The girls gleefully support this. Nino shrugs it off. Lila wouldn’t be too crushed, she told him herself she doesn’t like Adrien that way.
On Lila’s birthday, the class wishes her a happy birthday. Lila had earlier informed them that her Mother has planned a big surprise for her, apparently she is going to La Jules Verne.
The class had internally hid their winces. Sheesh Mrs Rossi, you didn’t have to raise Lila’s expectations. Their planned party food would be good, but not that good.
Lila was indeed told she would be spending the day with her mum, but assumes it will be just a normal fancy dinner.
Adrien wishes her a happy birthday. He had helped to plan her birthday but he hid the fact that he would be spending his own day with Marinette, deciding not to trust Lila with any information like he had done in telling her about Kagami.
Mrs Rossi blindfolds her Daughter and leads her to the boat.
Lila feigns glee but is internally panicking. Why oh why did they plan her a surprise party. She hates surprises, they leave her so unprepared.
Lila asks if her Mother will be staying and Mrs Rossi confirms that she cleared out her whole evening for her baby girl.
Rose excitedly adds, “And she can tell us all about your trip to Achu.”
Before Mrs Rossi could voice her confusion, Lila pounced on the nearest distraction she could find: a very cute guitarist with blue hair. “Oh, you must be Juleka’s Brother! Your Sister has told me how talented you are at reading music.”
Luka gave a small polite smile. He did not like this girl. Her melody was a discordant mess! But a party was a party.
Her own Mother was scanning the crowd. “And where is young Adrien? I would love to meet my daughter’s Boyfriend.”
Nino coughed out soda.
The girls gaped at either Rossi.
Luka knew he wouldn’t like the following conversation.
Alya was the one who finally spoke up, eyeing Lila warily. “Adrien is seeing the latest Jumanji movie with Marinette.... I didn’t know you 2 were dating.”
And I clearly don’t believe it, was what she didn’t need to add, but was heavily implied.
Lila laughed nervously. “I may have exaggerated my glamourous school life to my Mother. I don’t always have a good time at every school I’m enrolled in.”
Mrs Rossi nods, and rubs Lila’s cheek. “Oh, Ma Bella, you didn’t have to lie to me. I always want to know how you are. You don’t have to pretend to be strong.”
Rose fidgets nervously then hurried to change the subject because the air was getting awkward. “I know, how about Mrs Rossi tells us about your trip to Achu.”
Lila quickly demurred. “No, I want to hear your band play. I haven’t had the chance to see you perform live!”
Rose squealed and hurried the wary band to the stage. Nobody missed Mrs Rossi’s confusion.
As Lila hurried her Mother to the stage, she cast a silent pleading look to her to play along, out of sight of the others.
Guessing that Lila tried to make herself look good, Mrs Rossi sighed and nodded.
Kitty Section did play well. But Lila couldn’t really enjoy the party. She could sense her class’ unease, her Mother’s disappointment, and she was irked that Adrien chose to skip her party to go on a date with Marinette! But she can stew on that later. Right now she had her reputation to save.
The main problem was her mother’s lack of information of Achu. She may be a diplomat but even she can’t remember all worldwide country customs and dignitaries!
As the band played, only innocent Rose believed in Lila. Alya was really tempted to check the internet but refrained out of politeness to the band.
Nino personally felt betrayed. Lila lied to him, didn’t she?
When the band finished, and it was time to light the cake, Lila made a wish that she would survive this party. (She really should have been more specific. Of course no one would murder her at her own party).
While they ate the cake, Rose persisted that Mrs Rossi tell them about their time planning fundraisers with Prince Ali.
Lila silently blessed Rose for giving enough information.
Mrs Rossi gave a delicate cough. “Well, planning royal fundraisers is actually harder than your average fundraiser. The bigger an event, the more there is to plan. But I must say that Prince Ali is the most caring and responsible man I have ever met.”
And here Mrs Rossi made her first unwitting mistake. She assumed that the fundraising Prince was grown up, not a boy who should be in school.
Rose looked confused by her phrasing before assuming Mrs Rossi saw Ali as a boy older than his years, and thus a man.
The class was more skeptical.
“Oh, but I’m sure Lila was amazing at it. To think that she could juggle fundraising, sightseeing, catching up with our lessons and homework!”
At the second sentence, it was Mrs Rossi’s turn to choke. She could excuse Lila’s lie about working with her, but that bit about school work began to raise suspicions in her mind.
If Lila lied about her school life, could she have lied about the akuma attacks too?
But why? Was she so nervous at school? That can’t be it. Her class seemed so friendly when they called her to plan the party.
Mrs Rossi has not been blind to their suspicion, and now gave her own Daughter a stink eye.
Lila tried for the innocent look. At this point, Lila only prayed she could still salvage her truancy.
Thankfully, it was still her birthday. They would be polite for her sake. Once the party was over however, all bets were off.
It was the most awkward party Lila had ever been to. None of her classmates except Rose would talk to her. Even her own Mother couldn’t face her.
Goodbyes were curt and tense.
Lila couldn’t hope to attract an akuma with only her dread, let alone with her Mother keeping a close eye on her now.
Alya began to work on Lila’s claims, starting with why Marinette believed Lila was lying. Marinette was currently with Adrien and he gave the OK. Marinette admits she saw Lila throw a book aside and Ladybug confronting her. (She phrases it as if it was by chance. Adrien thanks her for saving him from homeschooling and is furious with Lila)
Juleka asks Rose to question Ali about Lila. Rose naively agreed, thinking Juleka meant to remind Ali it was Lila’s birthday. Oh poor Rose. What a shock she received.
Kim was asked by Alya to look up Lila’s ailments.
The next day at school, the class were seething with rage or just plain hurt. Even Marinette wasn’t smiling because of the negative atmosphere. On the bright side, her date with Adrien had been perfect!
Adrien had finished explaining his reasoning for not calling out on Lila to the class - that she attracted an akuma when he calmly chided her - until Marinette pointed out the akuma was originally meant for her when she felt left out by her class for seating arrangement and Lila’s threat (which is a whole lot more believable than Lila getting Akuma angry from a simple request to be honest)
Adrien is excused and is now out for Lila’s blood.
It is a twist. For once, Marinette was early. Alya dragged her out of bed for an emergency class meeting about Lila. The latter arrived as late as she could to delay the confrontation.
After convincing her Mother that she just felt pressured to make a good impression on her class, that she wanted to assure her Mother she had made friends, and that the Achu lie had taken place years ago, Mrs Rossi agreed to forgive Lila but forced her to attend school and to apologize to her class for lying to them. Yeah right!
Lila spent all night preparing an excuse. She could excuse her mother’s expressions and choking as unprepared for such interest in her job. But the main root of their suspicion came from her lie about Adrien. She knew the girls were fiercely defensive and supportive of Adrienette (gag her already). She could say that her Mother had been worrying about her finding a stable boyfriend, and Lila had mentioned Adrien before knowing about Marinette’s crush on him.
Lila crossed her fingers to find confusion and mild suspicion. She found anger and betrayal instead. Alya and Adrien looked especially hateful at her.
Oh crap.
Lila decided to take the lead before the class could. “I know why you’re all upset, but I can explain!”
She gave her excuses.
The class did not look appeased.
Rose finally burst into tears. “You’re lying. You’re lying! I spoke to Ali last night. He never heard of you before!”
Lila had to stop herself from retreating. “He’s a busy prince. He can’t remember every one of his associates.”
“You aren’t even friends with Ladybug. Adrien told us about it!” Ok, so now Alya was lying. But she didn’t want Lila to target Marinette anymore.
Nino blurted out, “You stole my man Adrien’s book and threw it in the trash!” Ok, how did he even know that? Did Ladybug catch her in the act before confronting her. Ugh, Alya must have gotten an interview beforehand.
Adrien’s cheeks were flushed and he glowered at her. “And you threatened Marinette.”
Lila glared at said girl. Marinette only looked at Lila in pity. How dare she? Then she quickly changed to a scared face and began tearing up. “Me? She’s the one who threw a napkin at me!”
“Yes,” Alix said sarcastically, “a soft napkin that can apparently blind a boy with glasses.”
Max pushed those glasses up. “We will avoid mentioning that moment please.” It will forever be a source of embarrassment to him. How could he have been so gullible?
Kim crossed his arms. “Speaking of that napkin incident, how do we know your ear and wrist were ever injured?”
Lila gasped. “Of course I was. Why would I lie about that?”
Mylene wasn’t impressed with Lila’s show. “Gee, maybe it was so we would buy and carry your lunch?”
“Or so you could sit next to Adrien?” Nathaniel muttered.
“You can’t prove I was faking,” Lila pointed out. “My wrist sprain has healed and my tinnitus was cured long ago.”
Chloe scoffed. “Like it’s that hard to check on your medical records and doctors’ notes.” Well... not hard for her.
Alya straightened. “And we actually have witnesses this time.”
Adrien nodded. “I was actually there when Ladybug came over, remember Lila?”
Of course she remembered. That was the most humiliating moment of her life.
“And if I recall correctly, your wrist was fine when you admitted you lied to me.” Marinette was so relieved the truth was out.
Sensing her “I was honest” route wasn’t working out, Lila switched tactics.
“Alright,” she wailed. “I admit I’m a big liar.”
The class waited, not sure whether to believe her this time.
“I only wanted to make friends. I had heard so much about your accomplishments and was afraid you all would look down on me.”
Adrien wasn’t falling for it. “If you wanted to make friends so badly, why threaten Marinette.”
“I was scared she would take you all away from me. I didn’t mean it!”
Adrien’s face didn’t soften. He remembered Lila’s grudge against Ladybug. “Stealing my book?”
“It was a mistake! Anyone can make mistakes right?”
Marinette admitted this was true. She stole phones, but at least she returned them! She felt herself softening just a tiny bit.
Ivan growled; “serving you lunch?!”
“I forgot my lunch money.”
Juleka mused, “that still doesn’t explain why you were absent.”
“Can you blame me? I had been akumatized. I was embarrassed.”
Sabrina levelled a look at the liar. “It’s still truancy, Lila.”
“Yes, it is,” came a new voice. The class turned to see their frowning teacher finally cross the threshold.
Late as Lila had been, Caline had come to the class soon after but had decided to stay in the shadows to eavesdrop. No one knew how much she had heard.
“Young lady,” she said sternly to Lila, “go to the Principal’s office. I think it’s time we called your Mother to discuss your absence at school, bullying and how long you’ve had your ailments.”
As Lila meekly followed her teacher, Ms Bustier added to Marinette, “Oh, Marinette, you’re in charge. The rest of you can revise pages 65 to 79. I have a feeling I may take a while.
I’ll let you imagine what the class did when the pair left.
When Ms Bustier returned, Lila was absent. Ms Bustier refused to divulge what had happened.
Like that was going to stop Chloe. She asked the principal what had happened to Lila, and told Sabrina and Adrien, who told Alya who told everybody else.
Mrs Rossi came down from work and was astonished and hurt that her baby girl was so wicked and deceitful.
Lila was currently suspended, would not return to the class since she wouldn’t be welcome, and would repeat the grade. She should have been expelled but apparently the principal bought her sob story about how her threat to Marinette wasn’t real and that she just wanted to make friends. Mrs Rossi was skeptical but didn’t want her Daughter expelled. However she had her own punishment, Lila was grounded. She would have no allowance.
It was official. Lila had the worst birthday ever.
On the bright side, she got presents on the boat, even Adrien had given her one.
Lila stifled a yell when she saw Adrien post an Instagram photo of himself and Marinette at Disneyland. He wanted to thank her for returning his book and to comfort her after Lila’s long ago threat.
What surprises is me is that I could actually see the class forgiving Lila with her latest excuses. Except Adrien. He can’t forget her role in Oniichan. But then Caline came along and had to be the responsible adult. She can excuse bullying all she likes, but she can’t excuse truancy, forged documents and an angry model with a large fan base furious about Marinette’s treatment.

the 100 diaries S1 E6
quarantine diaries: may 23 2020
season 1 episode 6 “His Sister’s Keeper”
**i threw in a theory here so obviously if its spoilery don’t answer it but if not please answer my questions or lmk your opinions on my theories cuz im genuinely curious if anyone else share the same thoughts.
oh we’re finally getting some backstory on octavia and bellamy.
wow she really had a baby all by herself no epidural no nothing. girl power
i just love how bellamy goes to clarke to talk about his worries about octavia missing and she listens. she doesn’t just brush him off and she offers to help him find her. ok i feel the slight zutara energy
octavia is fucked dude. that grounder is gonna ground her.
finn gets a hair cut. idk if i like tho but i guess he no longer looks like a wannabe/ soft boi version of warren peace from sky high
finn. finn. finn. you are such a player. raven literally risked her life to come down for you and yet you can’t keep clarke out your head like her pussy is that good? also raven brings up a good point: its literally been 10 days (i thought that the 100 were already out here for weeks) really finn you could have kept your pants on. it wasn’t like you getting any when you were in lockup. weak. i tell you. weak. you can not have your cake and eat it too
*frowny face* to bellamy’s face when he realizes that their message didn’t work and hundreds of people were killed on the ark and that he fucked up big time
ok i know y’all find this cynical but literally why are all these kids still following bellamy. like he don’t have a gun no more. also this kids never formed friendships to octavia before so why are they so loyal to her and willing to go on a suicidal search mission. i don’t want to bash too much octavia but most of her personality is that she was hidden under the floor for most of her life (meaning that she was sheltered even tho she really don’t act like it), that she is a HUGE flirt (her love interest dies and then she’s instantly with another guy) (in this episode especially they show her being socially awkward, so i wonder how she became so self-confident), and that she is rebellious in response to bellamy’s protectiveness. plus, even if she were to befriend these other kids they really only met like 10 days ago. Really it wasn’t like everyone on camp loved her and yet im to believe that that there’s a good number of people that would risk their lives to find her. ok
“my sister, my responsibility” says bellamy and proceeds to walk into a forest with a bunch of hanging skeletons hmmmmm i have an older brother too. we’re close but im 100% sure my brother would never.
questions for y’all: who is bellamy’s father? who is octavia’s father? are they half siblings? cuz like they really don’t look alike and bellamy’s father is blatantly omitted from this episode. i have a theory that that guards person (inspector bruce) that their mom does sexual favors for is the father of octavia but idk. and based on bellamy’s hair style in the flashbacks (being pushed back) plus his general build i think that Kane is is father. do i have any proof? no but look
again im just shooting in the dark and maybe spewing garbage but i mean... look at them. they also clearly take about the children of those in the council (ie thelonius and wells, abby and clarke) but never talk about kane. suspious. not that he seems like the father type tho he does seem like the type to have an illegitimate child that he does not care for (judgy i know but can you blame me)
that backstory between raven and finn. i ship it but honestly the way that finn is still havin feelings for clarke makes me think that raven deserves better
these grounders have them traps. oooo kill’em. these grounders actually be smart tho
i have a bad feelin’ about this masquerade dance... yep she really be caught like that and bellamy just wanted to do a nice thing
another side note: is it just me or does masquerade octavia look like a really poor version of that girl in 50 shades of gray (im not a fan of the series so idk her name but i remember seeing the trailers)
also i haven’t mentioned it early but like the sound track for this show is bringing me back.
this tension between raven and clarke i dont like. FINN IS NOT WORTH IT. sisters are supposed to be supporting sisters but fuck that i guess
what are the odds that the grounder they follow is the same exact one that has octavia. also you’re supposed to make sure your enemy is actually dead but no now finn is stabbed
oh this is a beauty and the beast situation between octavia and the grounder. literally tho why is octavia defending him. yes he did heal her but he also really chained her up after she ran away. do i detect stockholm syndrome? yes i do. in the episode the grounder literally caries octavia just like this:
Kinda reminds me of twilight with Jacob and Bella
this blow-up between octavia and bellamy was a long time coming. bellamy saying “my life ended the day you were born” that was loooow..... you know he was waiting to say that line all his life. also im waiting for octavia to grow on me but its been 6 episodes and i still don’t like her

So, now that my finals are officially over, I am going to proceed to have a drink or two or three and rewatch Eclipse. Here’s (soberly) what I remembered from the film prior to starting this account (since starting this account, posts re:Eclipse have reminded me of things I’m not going to include in this introduction):
1. Bella is basically playing tic-tac-toe with Edward and Jacob and her feelings for them. She can’t make up her mind. When I watched it the first time, my dad was in the living room half paying attention to it and said she was very selfish.
2. Edward tries to control Bella, but it’s “out of genuine concern for her”.
3. Jacob tries to control Bella, but it’s “out of genuine concern for her”.
4. Both fight for her affection and even though she’s engaged to Edward, she won’t let go of Jacob.
5. When the newborn army shows up, Bella cuts her arm with a rock.
6. There’s awkward tension in the tent.
That’s literally all I remember of the movie while sober (aside from what I have relearned from posts about Eclipse on this blog). My drunken thoughts will be below the break:
Okay, so this dude I think his name is Riley is lowkey kinda dumb, no offense. Like he just stood there and screamed “WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?” This is how all horror movies end badly. You don’t talk back. You run or hide or esape.
THE MEADOW IS SO FUCKING PRETTY. IT’S THE PUREST THING WE HAVE IN THIS FANDOM OMG HE’S PLAYING WITH EHR HAIR AND I JUST WANT SOMEOEN TO PLAY WITH MY HAIR. DAMN BELLA, MY FINALS ARE OVER. SUCKS TO SUCK, DOESN’T IT?

THERE’S A GLOWING RED LIGHT OUTSIDE MY WINDOW WTF I THINK IT’S THE REFLECTION OF A CAR LIGHT BUT I FUCKING SWEAR

WHAT THE FUCK EDWARD?? YOU MESSED WITH BELLA’S TRUCK SO SHE COULDN’T SEE HER FRIEND? FUCK. I WOULD’VE DUMPED YOU AND LEFT YOU IN THE WOODS BRO.
Edward sitting with Bella’s friends. We can’t help but stan. He’s still a bitch for the truck thing though.
I love how Alice looks @ Edward and tells him the party will be fun because she knows nothing bad will happen. But then he reads her mind and looks conerned wtf is ognna happen?
Side note: I really like the lighting in this movie. Everyone has a healthly glow. They lokk happy.
The fucking Volturi always gotta ruin everything. Bitch ass hoes. Ol’ crusty asses acting like some outdated monarchy. Why don’t the vamprires start a democratic government?
Charlie really deserved better. Like I know they couldn’t tell him teh truth but they could’ve been slightly less untruthful prbabl.
I WANNA FIND SOMEONE WHERE MY MOM SAYS WE’RE LIKE MAGNETS WITH EACH OTHER. I WANT SOMEONE TO LOOK @ ME LIKE I’M THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE. DAMNIT EDWARD. DAMNIT STEPHENDW.

The Vampire Diaries Thoughts & Opinions (rewatch)
S1 :
OMG I completely forgot how cheap was this show! The dialogues in s1 feels so forced and fake 🤮 Not to blame the actors, but sometimes it feels really unnatural, like you know you’re in a fantasy young adult tv show. It doesn’t feel like real life, like what real people would do/say. It’s too obnoxious and dramatic and... overly intense ?? 😕 Rewatching it, it might be the biggest flaw of the early seasons 🤷♀️
They all look SO YOUNG tough 😳
Mmmm... Stefan acts like a total creep in s1, it’s really giving me Twilight vibes 😅 like if I was Elena/Bella, I would be terrified of Stefan/Edward ! 😰 They’re creepy and stalky and weirdly intense / edgy about ordinary stuff... Their entire personality screams : “I AM A VAMPIRE AND I CANNOT CONTROL MYSELF AROUND YOU” which... #yikes 🤔
Caroline Forbes is my favorite character of the entire show, I love her SO much ❤️ “I’m never the one” is still one of the most powerful lines, for me, and I loved her characterisation throughout the show
Matt has been irrelevant since s1 🙄, honestly he was maybe funny/quirky in the double-date episode and regarding his relationship with Caroline (while not having moved on from Elena)...? But that was like a couple of episodes and apart from that he was just useless. I do not understand why he stayed alive that long
Jeremy.... oh Jeremy 😔 He was... such a cliché! He was what adults see as the “typical” rebellious edgy teenager who does nothing of his life except smoking weed. And no, I don’t like that caricature. His relationship with Vicky... 🤷♀️ I mean, sure, it was sweet that he cared for her that way and that he saw more in her than just the “stoned-ass trashy girl” 💁🏻♀️ that she was supposed to embody. But Jeremy really acted like “The Nice Guy”and it seemed like he was expecting something for being nice with Vicky. He acted like if Vicky owed him something, while she never asked for him to interfere in her problems 🙅♀️ I don’t know, I guess he was just supposed to be a lost teen, damaged by trauma, and I get that.
OK, so if I was Elena, seeing Katherine’s picture would FREAK. ME. OUT 😱 I would run away. So far away. I would tell everyone I love to run away 👀 I would just completely shut down. I would never want to see the guy ever again (who clearly has a fetish and an unhealthy obsession!!). I mean, talk about being clinched to your ex
Damon and Caroline’s relationship was SO TOXIC in s1 !! 💥 And the show never really acknowledged that!! I mean, sure, they did, but I don’t think Damon realised the pain he caused her: he manipulated her, fed on her, hurt her, compelled her, used her to get what he wanted, abused her, put her life in danger, over and over again 🤢🤬😡
LEXIIIIIIIIII 💖💖💖 Finally! I remember I liked her a lot, but she’s just one of the best, purest character! I’m so happy Stefan can AT LEAST count on her 💕
WHAT?! 😱 SHE DIED SO SOON IN THE SHOW??!?? 💔😭 I didn’t remember that at all! I think my mind erased that fact from my mind because it hurt too much!
Ugh, Logan 😑
I hate what they did with Bonnie 😡 In s1 she’s this incredibly judgy character who ruins every single plan by having ridiculously high moral standards (for this fictional universe, at least), ugh. I love her but they used her to create unnecessary conflict in the show and she didn’t deserve that. Also she didn’t deserve all the pain, the deaths & the misery. She’s one of the (many) characters who have suffered SO MUCH throughout the seasons and they really did her dirty and i’m so mad about that !!
The flashbacks from 1864 were quite well done. I always found it interesting to learn more about Katherine’s past and the Salvatore brothers’ tragic origin story.
*sighs* John Gilbert... urrffffgh 🙄
Isobel being Elena’s biological mother AND Alaric’s ex wife was... so weird 🤨
Overall, I don’t have a lot of opinions for that season because I was bored half of the time 🤷♀️ I just really wasn’t interested about the plot and/or the characters because it was all so cliché and cheap. This season was really bad. It’s not working at all, for me at least.
S2 :
Katherine is a GREAT character and you can’t fight me on that 💁🏻♀️👠👑
The addition of the werewolves was quite a good idea, though it was predictable so far. Werewolves and vampires often come together in fantasy 🤷♀️ Tyler’s storyline was interesting though 🤔 The whole idea of a curse that you activate when you become responsible for someone’s death, no matter your intentions, was good.
CAROLINE BECOMING A VAMPIRE WAS ONE OF THE BEST THING HAPPENING TO THIS SHOW : YES ! 👏 She was such a better person as a vampire. She was arguably the best vampire of them all, the one who truly succeeded the most at adapting at her new life 💕
I DO NOT understand WHY Damon would ask for troubles to Mason, a werewolf, whose bite is DEADLY to him 🙄
Elijah was so different in s2 than I remembered. So uptight, and yet so evil ?? I remembered him as the nice brother in the Michaelson family. But the way he relentlessly targets Rose and her family and friends... yikes 😣🥺
Klaus was so HYPED by the show. Even Katherine herself was terrified of him 😱 And when you think about it, he might be one of the most dangerous creature of TVD’s lore... 🧐 But compared to other vilains, he was quite friendly.
Bonnie and Jeremy... mmm.... sure. You know what, it doesn’t scream “soulmate” but it doesn’t have to be. It can be just a messy, complicated, unexplainable crush. It can just be two people liking each other and enjoying each other’s company without trying to look for a deeper thing. Plus the situation is so awkward, with Jeremy being Bonnie’s best friend’s little baby brother, that it was fun to watch! 😄
My heart still feels for Jenna 💔 She had just learnt the truth about vampires and she had JUST figured out why everyone in her life was acting so weird... and then she died. And idk she was a lovely, messy, funny, pure heartface, completely lost gardian... 💕 and I’m gonna miss her. I would have liked to see her react to what happened next on the show (and how she could have supported Elena & Jeremy through all of this, etc.) 🥺
OF COURSE STEFAN WOULD MAKE A DEAL WITH KLAUS TO GET A CURE FOR HIS BROTHER! Is this Supernatural?
So, yeah, same thing here: most of the storylines developed in this season didn’t interest me whatsoever. So I don’t have a lot of things to say about this season, but just bear with me pls 🐻
S3 :
I absolutely adore Stefan as a ripper in s3. Especially regarding his complicated relationship with Klaus... I think his dependency / addiction to blood is really interesting 🤔 Stefan can’t be a regular vampire, drinking blood from humans then erasing their memories / drinking from blood blags. He can’t because he feels so guilty for the lives he takes / the pain he inflicts on other. So he’s like all or nothing 🤷♀️ A human blood-free diet guy. Or a merciless killer.
Regarding of the whole delena / stelena ship war... *sighs* 😔 I honestly don’t know 🤷♀️ Both relationships seem hella toxic (for different reasons, but still). I do believe Elena loved them both (maybe not at the same time, though). So, I don’t know who she should have ended up with... I remember shipping her with Damon on my first watch, but now I realise that was purely for the bad boy vibes (i.e bad boy, who, deep down, isn’t so bad because turns out he can change and blah blah blah... ugh what a cliché i know 🙄). So anyway, I’m not gonna defend Delena, it’s as messed up as Stelena if you ask me. But that’s where my heart went on the first watch and that’s who she canonically ends up with, so I’m not gonna fight it and try to make a case of whether she should have ended up with another person (or alone?). In my head, she’s with Damon 🙃 Just cause’ it’s easier, more convinient, and I’m lazy that way 😅 But I understand people who ship/prefer Stelena over Delena. I’m just not THAT invested in this freaking love triangle anymore ✋
The show really took off when they introduced the original vampires if you ask me 🧛♂️ Their backstory is so tragic, and after that, it makes more sense why Elijah, Rebekah and Klaus are so close, trust each other so much and manage to forgive the worst of each other💖
Rebekah, that poor girl who only ever wanted to have a human normal life and to BOND with people (whether they were family, friends or more than friends...) 💕has been betrayed by EVERYONE 🔪She was daggered more times than I can even count, and I’m surprised she hasn’t killed everyone out of pure revenge yet!
Yeeeeep. Still ships Klaroline. ❤️
My God, what would I give to see Caroline explore this world and enjoy the perks of her vampire life with Klaus...🥰 She wanted that. She secretly dreamed of that. And frankly, she deserved that. She deserved to feel happy and fulfilled and excited about her future! She deserved more than the life she got in Mystic Falls ��� More than Tyler! More than Jessy. More than Damon. And more than Stefan too, even if she did seem happy with him in the end. I think I liked Klaus as a romantic option for the same reasons I liked Damon back then. For the challenge. For the way they always push their girlfriends further, and make them want more of life than what they’ve got. For the way they make them ambitious.
I think the reason this season feels so useless is because they try to find a way to eliminate the Original family... only to find out that if they do that, EVERY VAMPIRE EVER WILL ALSO DIE 👏
I despised the whole evil alter ego trope that they did with Alaric 😪😴 I liked the idea of the ring having real bad consequences. But here, Alaric can’t take responsibility for wanting to cheat on death precisely because he has a second personality that he cannot control. The blame is just put on somebody else, an entire other person that just cohabits in Alaric’s body. I never really liked the whole Dr Jekill & Mr Hide trope 🤷♀️ And I don’t think it was bringing anything to the table, honestly. It’s boring (because SO obvious and predictable) and it takes forever to deal with (ugh) 😑
NOOOOOOOOOO RICK 😭💔 He was one of my favorite character. I really loved his relationship with Elena and Jeremy + his friendship with Damon. I’m gonna miss him really hard. The scene with Damon on his grave was really sweet 🥺
S4:
Elena being a vampire : YES! 👏 We’ve been waiting for this for so long, the show really needed this to go on (realistically the show would have had trouble to move on if Elena would have stayed human for a lot longer). So I’m really glad about that being the premise for s4 ☺️ Plus her transition is well handled, with her memories coming back + her emotions being heightened (the scene where she bursts into laugh and cannot stop was really funny and somehow relatable 😂).
The scene in the car with Stefan, Matt & Elena VS Stefan, Elena & her father was really well done! 👏 I loved the parallel where she wants Stefan to save Matt first, just like her father wanted him to save Elena first. So touching 💕 It’s a tough choice and Stefan will have to live with both consequences for the rest of his life, which will NOT be easy with Damon blaming him for Elena’s death. But, really, Damon kinda has a point : "in what world are you [Matt] the one that gets to live?”. Matt has been saved so many times on the show and it’s legit to ask yourself : WHY? Why him? 🤷♀️He’s so irrelevant and useless. But I get that’s the whole point. Human life is irrelevant and useless (in the great scheme of things). And yet, we fight for it ✊ Because somehow it matters.
S4 helped me remember what I didn’t like about Stefan, regarding his relationship with Elena. He really had a big problem with her being a vampire, and he spent half of his time trying to “control” / ���fix” her 🙄 He’s got such high standards for Elena when she turns into a vampire. It’s like he expects her to not make the same mistakes as he - or any other vampire in the history of vampirism - did. He desperately wants her to be a “good” vampire right away and avoid the “killer without humanity” phase 🤔 Which is understandable. He doesn’t want her to become a bad vampire who doesn’t care about human life, as he was during his ripper phase (or like Damon).
Damon truly accepted her, the new her, vampire! Elena 👐 You can argue that it’s because he’s selfish and he wants people to act as bad and carelessly as him (that’s why he tried to manipulate Stefan into drinking human blood again in s1 : he doesn’t want to be alone and he needs someone else to party with)... But he isn’t selfish when it comes to Elena 🤷♀️ The show proved us that. He wanted her to have a human normal life, to be happy, to grow old and have children. He wanted to give her that, and that’s why he would have saved her over Matt on the bridge. He’s not happy that she is a vampire. That’s not what he wanted. Never. But now that she is, and that there’s nothing they can do about it (that they know of), Damon tries to make the best out of it
Anyway, Caroline is such a better teacher then Damon or Stefan 😅 Drop the Salvatore brothers and get educated on the vampire life with your bff, Elena !
Elena being sired by Damon, OMMGG! 😮😮😮 So much drama, I really loved it. It was smart to use that as a way to postpone Delena for a little bit - playing on the general doubt that Elena might not truly love Damon and she might just be under the influence of the sire bond. Which, let’s be honest, was a legit consideration to have. So, yeah... REALLY GLAD that, in the end, the sire bond didn’t create those feelings out of nowhere, it only heightened and amplified what was already there beforehand. Otherwise, it would have been really problematic, especially regarding consent issues 😕
I love that Damon makes the right choice again with Elena and “sets her free”. He doesn’t want their relationship to be fake. And so he uses the sire bond to send her away, to be herself, to live her life without worrying about what makes him happy. You can say everything you want about Damon, at least he gets it right by her ☝️Just like when he confessed his feelings to her, but compelled her to forget because she’s in love with Stefan and he doesn’t want to mess it up. He was not selfish when it came to her.
It was really heartbreaking to see Jeremy becoming a hunter and having the sudden urges to kill his own sister and basically everybody else in his life 😢
Poor Carol Lockwood! 💔 She didn’t deserve to die. She tried so hard to help for Tyler, even when she learnt he was a werewolf, she cared so much for him...😭
Their inability to communicate with each other is INSANE. At some point in s4, they all know Shane is practicing a magic called “Expression”. Damon and Stefan also know that kind of magic is incredibly dark and dangerous (from their little trip to New Orleans when they tried to find a way to deactivate the sire bond and the witch there told them she wasn’t practicing this kind of magic). But NO ONE has still put two and two together. And so, Bonnie keeps blindly trusting Shane and hanging out with him 🤦♀️
The whole search for the cure was quite interesting and entertaining to watch! Each one of them wanted it for a different reason : destroy it, use it, share it, give it away, save it for later... Which really well portrayed how people can react to the idea of mortality. The fact that there’s only one dose was really genius! That makes it even more interesting to see who’s gonna fight for it (i.e. Rebekah, Stefan), who’s gonna just drop it because turns out they didn’t really want it to begin with (i.e. Damon, Caroline), who’s gonna exchange/bargain it and for what (i.e Katherine, maybe), who’s gonna get it the end and what will they do with it. Will it all be worth it? 🧐
Jeremyyyyy 💔😭 R.I.P 💀
Honestly, even though I still think Matt is irrelevant to the show, let’s remember he also has lost every single person in his life (his dad and his mom are basically gone, Vicky is dead, Tyler left town again, his goddamn history teacher died too) - and now he can add Jeremy, his best friend, to the list 😭 He’s handling it all WAY better than anyone else. I mean you don’t see him burning down the house he grew up in for instance! However, I agree that Elena have lost more people in her family than him (her adoptive parents, Jenna, Alaric, Jeremy, even John... and Isobel is basically gone too). But it’s not like you can compare their lost, anyway. They boty suffered a lot, but I just wanted to say... I liked that the show acknowledged Matt lost someone important for him too 💕
No humanity! Elena, OOMMMGGG!! 🤯 I was so mad when it happened, because Damon could have just used the sire bond to make her deal with her brother’s death, he could have just helped through the grief and tell her it was going to be okay. He didn’t need to make her turn off her humanity 🙄 Real dumb move here!
I kinda liked the friendship between Elena without humanity and Rebecca! Their little trip starting off in NY was fun!
Katherine is, and will always be, the baddest bitch in town! ❤️ I was quite surprised to see her kill Jeremy so heartlessly, but I guess it fits the character. She’ll always be looking out for herself and the opportunity to take the cure and be one step ahead of everyone was obviously too good to leave out. She always had to fight for her own survival, in a world that’s always been dangerous and ruthless against her, so it makes sense she became who she is 🤷♀️
Of all the things that could have triggered Elena’s humanity flip switch, really? Matt Donovan? 🤨😑 I mean, it makes sense since Elena seems to value his life over everything else, including her own. But from what we’ve seen so far, she wasn’t really happy when she was dating Matt 😕 They used to fight a lot, they didn’t want the same thing out of life, they just were really different people. And that’s fine, they didn’t work out as a couple, but they can stay friend... Except you don’t really see them interract THAT much as friends. I mean it’s a lot of "say" and not enough "show", for me 🧐 You don’t feel the bond that two best friends should have... between them. You don’t see inside jokes, common interests, similar hobbies, laughters and tears, serious conversations that last for hours, or small talks over the phone... Anyway, from what we were shown so far, she shouldn’t feel that close to Matt. Not more than, idk, Bonnie, Caroline, Damon or Stefan for instance! So the fact that she cares SO MUCH about him is kinda strange 🤔
“He was your first love, I intend to be your last. However long that takes” LOOK WHO’S BAAAACK 👀 My favorite hybrid! Awww of course he was gonna come back for Caroline ❤️
Btw the ceremony was very cute 💕 It’s the end of high school! The end of an era! And they all graduated 🍾🎊🎉
Awwwwww, when Bonnie dropped the veil and everyone got to see their dead friends and family again! Stefan & Lexi, Damon and Alaric, Elena & Jeremy 💖
BONNIIIIIE, OH NOOOO, WHYYY 😭💔 oh no no no no no no no, she wants to keep her death a secret from everyone, that is such a bad idea!!! 😣
OMG SILAS IS A DOPPELGÄNGER OF STEFAN !!! 🤯 POOR STEFAN IS STUCK IN THE BOTTOM OF THE LAKE AND NO ONE KNOWS, NOOOOOO 💔😭
S5 :
The whole college experience with Caroline and Elena was so fun to rewatch😁 I wish Bonnie could have been there though, even if she kinda was.
It feels good to watch Elena and Damon being happily in love together and enjoying the summer ❤️☀️ But when you think about Stefan drowning over and over in that lake... it feels so bad :(
Katherine as a human is devastatingly entertaining! "I’m the freaking moonstone" 🤣 So iconic that she, of all people, took the cure! I loved that twist.
I loved the complicated and messy love triangle between Quetsiya, Amara and Silas. I want to empathise with Quetsiya and support her, because Silas screwed her over in such a supernatural, mystical way... he cheated on her and tricked her. He manipulated her to get what he wanted. So yeah, I’m all team Quetsiya ✊ but then again, she is sort of over-paranoid and obssesive? 🤷♀️ And being screwed over by a guy doesn’t exactly justify her quest for vengeance. So... I guess the only one who’s okay is Amara?? We don’t see a lot of her but I respect her wish to die after thousands of year in pain, as the anchor of the other side (which, btw, was BRILLIANT! 🤯 Quetsiya’s a genius! o.O)
"You are my life" ❤️ GOD, Damon always finding the right words!
I hate the travelers storyline 🙅♀️ I find it incredibly boring and I’m not that attached to Nadia. The only thing I liked about her was her relationship with her mom, Katherine. But apart from that, I don’t really like them as villains, nor as their storyline with Silas 😑😕
Stefan loosing his memory is okay-ish. It’s such a cliché as a trope, but it sort of works because Paul Wesley does such a great work at portraying different Stefans 👍 and it’s always entertaining to watch. And even though I usually ship Delena, I have to admit Elena recreating some moments with Stefan was very cute! 💕So it works but I’m not a big fan.
What I am a big fan of is the evolving relationship between Damon and Jeremy! 🥰 I mean, you can see that he didn’t really care about him, that he was mostly protecting him as a way to please Elena... But then, something changed 🤔He started caring for him for real, kinda like a big brother would:)
"You’re Katherine Pierce. Suck it up" hell yes 💪 keep fightingt, love !
Awwwwwww Bonnie 💔 Why do you always have to sacrifice yourself and put everyone else’s happiness before your own?? It’s really sad to see her becoming the anchor of the other side, feeling literally every single death of all the supernatural beings out there :’(
The Augustine vampire storyline!! 😮I’ve had completely forgotten about that! I love how they connected Damon with that institution, and how they introduced Enzo as Damon’s old mate. Well done👍
Katherine in Elena’s body: OMG! Love it! She’s such a survivor ❤️ That’s gonna mess things up so bad xD (btw the fact NO ONE notices anything is kinda weird and if I was Elena, I would be offended)
Nooooooo, don’t break up with Damon as Elena !!! 😱😱 Uuuughhh!!! Whyyy 😭
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG CAROLINE SLEPT WITH KLAUS !!! ❤️HELL YAS B**CH!!! SHE FINALLY ADMITTED HER FEELINGS FOR HIM !!! THEY KISSED !!! IT’S OFFICIAL !!! (i know klaus will never come back to TVD ever again buuuut... i’m still so so SO happy about that Klaroline reunion!)
Awwwww my baby Liv ❤️ I’ve missed her, she was so precious in season 5 !
Katherine AGRESSIVELY flirting with Stefan, while pretending to be Elena, was... both fun and hard to watch 😅Katherine was soooo pushy! And the fact that Stefan still doesn’t see she’s not Elena was infuriating! Like there’s just no way Elena would ever act like that!
"You’re never gonna as interesting as the next guy she wants to sleep with” poor Nadia 😭 that’s so true though :/ she didn’t deserve to die, I was really sad for her. She deserved a better life than the one she’s got 💔💔💔
FINALLY! 🙌 Finally they put two and two together and figured out Katherine is inside Elena’s body! Thank God 🙏 Caroline made me laugh so much with her "it’s Elena, we would have noticed something" speech. I was like YES. MY POINT EXACTLY 👏 I loved when they figured out all the little details that have been wrong ever since the beginning of this whole mess, like : Katherine was the reason that Tyler knew Caroline slept with Klaus. And Caroline’s like : oooohhh it all makes sense now. Wow. Congrats for figuring this out just now! 🙄
R.I.P Katherine ❤️ Weirdly, she will be missed. She did deserve better.
Jeremy was kind of a jerk with Bonnie in s5 ? I mean he was okay in the first few episodes i guess but then he completely ignored her... not cool bro, not cool 👎
The whole "Why do people seem to expect more of me?" speech of Caroline felt very relatable 👏 Just because she’s kind, because she’s trying to do good, doesn’t mean it’s easier for her! 😤 Plus, why do people keep slut-shaming her for having sex with Klaus when she’s not the first, nor the last, to have had one night stands with - arguably - bad people! ✋
Damon and Elena breaking up : lol 😆 As if. We know they’re endgame. Please. It’s only a matter of episodes until they find their way back to each other, which is why they are kinda cute as a couple.
Ugh 😑 Markos 🤦♀️ I just can’t ✋
Bonniiiiiiiiiiie !! Stop lying to everybody!! I hated how she was pretending she had a spell to escape the Other Side collapsing! Haven’t you learnt anything by now? Talk to your friend, figure out a plan together and if not, at leat say your goodbyes and enjoy your last moments with them!
Did I already say I hate the travelers storyline? Well, I do. I hate it 🤬
Season 5 finale was PEFRECT, I loved it. Bonnie resurrecting everyone, Liv doing the spell, Silas helping them just to be destroyed in the end (a fitting ending), Damon and Elena driving through the Grill to kill all the travelers, Alaric coming back, Markos dying... BUT. But, but, but, I was so upset about Damon!! It was just a matter of time and if they would have just kept going with the spell for a few seconds (damn you, Luke!), he would have been able to come through! And Lexi, omg 😭 at least she found peace❤️
Btw, that’s exactly what I meant about Bonnie’s character. Throughout the seasons she never stops sacrificing herself for other people (sometimes those people don’t even deserve it). She keeps lying to everyone. She lied when she died the day of graduation. She didn’t say how much it hurt her to be the anchor. She lied when she said they had a way to bring her back from the Other Side when it was collapsing. She kept minimising her (big-ass) problems. She kept putting other people before herself. And she’s one of the characters who suffered the most. Her storyline revolves around pain. The show doesn’t allow her to be fully happy. And btw, no one truly cares about her happiness (except maybe Jeremy and then Enzo), at least not when somebody else’s safety or comfort is at play. She’s never number 1 on the priority list. If somebody needs her to do a spell or whatever, they will use her. No matter how much danger she puts herself in 🤬
"Please don’t leave me” 😭😭😭 I felt that... It crushed my heart 💔
S6 :
I loved the way everybody coped with Bonnie and Damon’s deaths 💕 Elena got addicted to some magical herbs that made her hallucinate Damon again because she couldn’t deal with his death. Jeremy left a tone of angry voicemails to Bonnie’s old phone - which he paid for. Caroline got dragged into work and research in order to find a way to get back in Mystical Falls. Stefan moved on completely and started off a new life. It’s just... a nice way to show grief 😊
Ooohh I smell some Steroline moments!! Poor Caroline. To me, she deserved better than Stefan! He was such a jerk to her, especially in the beginning 😤😡
NOOOOOOOOOOOO 💔 ELENA DON’T ERASE YOUR MEMORIES! WHAT! WILL! YOU! DO! WHEN! DAMON! INEVITABLY! COMES! BACK! Elenaaaaa 😤 You have to learn how to deal with grief for real !
The fact she trusts Rick completely to do that was so beautiful though... They’re family and it was nice to see their bond.
Bonnie and Damon were kinda cute ! Like I don’t ship them, per say. But I get why some people do 🤷♀️ They had chemistry and they worked as an enemies to lovers trope. Anyway, I personally liked their friendship, how they both learnt how to support each other, how to function as a team, how they helped each other through the worst! In the end, Damon truly cared about her, and that’s why he was ready to do anything in order to save her 💪
Kaaaaaaiiiiii 🙈 i’m so conflicted about ya
I totally ship Jalaric ! ❤️ I loved how Elena tried to fix them up together! They’re really cute together. They both have complicated pasts and a messy family. They understand each other :) And Jo is such a confident woman! She knows what she wants, she’s not afraid of speaking her mind, she’s kinda fierce!
The fact that Elena wanted her memories back JUST when Alaric became human again was just... aaarrghh 🤬
"I think I deserve better than that” YES 👏 YOU 👏 DO 👏 CAROLINE! Stefan treated you like shit and you’re right to protect yourself, sweatheart 💕 I really didn’t like how he tried so hard to make amends... without acknowledging how much he hurt her, how he abandoned everyone, how he behaved like a jerk. I liked that Caroline took some distances for her own good 💖 #SelfRespectIsReal
The Gemini coven was really interesting. This idea of such a dysfunctional family, with a psychopath brother who killed half his siblings to merge with his twin sister in order to get leadership for the coven... it was all very compelling! Loved it ❤️
I think I have a thing for storylines about supernatural families in TVD : the Salvatores, the Mikealsons, the Parkers !
Liv and Tyler... mmm... don’t care 🤷♀️
You’re telling me that Damon got out of the prison world, even KAI got out, and BONNIE still gets stuck over there!! 🤬 Wtf ?? Why does this show hate this character so much? Why is she always the one who gets screwed in the end?? I just hate the way they treated her!! 😱
There was literally no good outcome to that whole twin-merging-together mess. If Liv merged with Luke, one of them would die and that’s not an option! If Kai merged with Jo, there was a huge chance he would win, which is simply not acceptable at all. Anyway, what a mess!
Kai literally sucking all the magic from the travelers’ spell, finally breaking it, allowing vampires to come back to Mystic Falls, was just... wOw! o.O
Luke merging with Kai 😭 R.I.P 💔
The ONLY good thing about that merge was watching Kai trying to deal with his feelings like ??? what’s going on??? 🧐🧐Why do i... feel??... stuff ?? 🤨🤨
"So I googled how to process emotional pain", i mean i hear you my boy, let’s not pretend that’s not my usual monday 👩🏻💻 "so i start writing and this water literally started pouring in my eyes ?? does that ever happen to you ??”, again same 😂
Jeremy going to art school... meh, it was okay. Clearly they didn’t know what to do with him anymore, so yeah, why not art school? 🤷♀️ The going-away party was nice :) Damon giving a joint to Jeremy was sort of sweet, Elena smoking it with him was also cool and quite funny!
Ugh 😑 Enzo & Sarah Salvatore... 🙄 this storyline was so boring, i just didn’t care
First Steroline kiss! 😳😮 Okay, that was kinda cute, I have to admit. But still, I don’t like the fondation of this ship, I think that Stefan hurt her too bad and, most importantly, didn’t respect her enough to get to come back and kiss her.
Sheriff Forbes being sick was KILLING me 😭😭😭 She didn’t deserve that at all, she was the sweatest, kindest, purest, most compassionate woman on this show... and she passed it on to Caroline...
The scene with the bike and little Caroline was so touching ❤️❤️😭 RIP Liz’!
OMGOMGOMG!!! Caroline flipped her humanity switch! 😱 "I just need the pain to be gone" 😭 I get why she did it, and I also thought Elena was being a little bit condescending with her. She had the right to turn it all out. Everyone else did. I get why she thought it was unfair :/
BONNIE’S BACK Y’ALL ❤️❤️❤️
I do not understand why people on this show just won’t accept people turning off their humanity switch 🤷♀️ I mean, Stefan, Damon, Elena,... they all did it! And every single time, the others tried really hard to fix that. And I’m like : why? I’m not sure it’s the smartest move here 🧐 Because they usually end up making things worse 😑 Look at Elena : she just wanted to not feel the pain of her brother’s death for a while. She even tried to make a deal with Stefan and Damon : leave me alone, let me do my things and I’ll behave. But of course, they refused 🙄🤦♀️ Because they couldn’t accept the fact that their precious Elena would ever be bad and do bad thing 😒🙄 And then Elena became ruthless! Who would have thought? 🙄 Same for Caroline! The poor girl lost her mother. She just wanted to get waisted, sing some karaoke songs, and live her vampire life without any care in the world. She even erased Liam’s memories when she fed on him. Her first instinct was to buy new clothes to start over and come back to her dorm to keep leaving her old college life! She kinda had it under control 🤷♀️ And then, she suggested a deal, kind of like the one Elena tried to make with Stefan and Damon :☝️ one year without humanity, and she behaves and doesn’t kill anyone. That’s a good deal if you ask me 🤷♀️ Why not let her have that? Why not agree with that deal? Caroline without humanity is still Caroline (sort of) : she’s functional, and to quote Caroline herself : she is not an idiot. She doesn’t want to feel so she’s ready to do anything to not be bothered. I think she would have respected her end of the deal. If you take a good look at it, in both cases, it’s when other people tried to bring them back, when they broke the deal, that Elena/Caroline became killers.
Stefan shutting off his humanity was so dumb 🤦♀️🙄 Elena was going to find Sarah, he still had time! And even if she didn’t, and Liam killed Sarah, it’d be one ☝️ dead body. But by turning off his humanity, Stefan practically ensured that there’d be more dead bodies after that!
Damon’s mom... urf, yeah? sure. I guess I should care? 🤷♀️ Honestly, even when I first watched the show, I found that storyline super boring. She didn’t inspire me anything whatsoever. Anyway, using her as Stefan’s emotional trigger was sort of smart, but kinda reckless. I mean, they had no idea if it was gonna work or not, and still they still risked it, I-... urf 🤦♀️
I liked Stefan’s little revenge 😈😈 He’s like : no, no, no, Caroline, you don’t get to have an elaborate system that protects you from feeling guilt whenever you’ll decide to turn your humanity back on. I’m gonna make your life a living-hell. I’m gonna break you. You don’t get to ruin MY life and keep being the same control-freak, organised, college girl 💁♀️
Alaric&Jo thinking about baby names 🥰
The cure is BACK??? Hell no 😤 I mean, sure, it was interesting the first time, don’t get me wrong. But we’ve already watched that storyline. So 🤷♀️
Btw, I hate how suddenly, everybody’s like "omg poor Elena will NEVER get the life that she truly wants, she’s condamned to an eternity as a vampire, without ever having the possibility of settling down and starting a family" 😱 like i don’t know Elena’s been FINE about her vampirism for like 4 seasons. She seems happy, she seems to have found a way to make the best out of it. But sure, NOW that the cure is back, she feels like her life is unbearable - how convenient🙄
"For the first time, I’m putting ME first" HELL YES, BONNIE ✊🏿 I wish she could do that more often though.
Awwww Caroline getting her humanity back was really sad and emotional 💕💕The LETTER 😭 The fucking letter 😭 "I’m sorry Stefan, I ruined everything" 😭
Are we gonna address Matt, Tyler and Alaric’s alcoholism or are we simply gonna pretend they don’t have a drinking problem and their behaviour is totally socially-acceptable ?? 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
I know it was her choice and it was probably for the best, but I think Elena taking the cure was a big mistake 😕 The show was way more entertaining when she was a vampire, and they basically erased every possibility of a "happy" ending for my favorite characters 💔 Elena will loose everyone she ever cared about, including Stefan and Caroline. She will have to move out of Mystic Falls and isolate herself from all her former friends. Damon is taking the cure with her so he will have to say goodbye to his own brother, the only family he has left. All of that... for a human life ?? A meaningless job?? Bills to pay?? School?? Money issues?? A house to maintain?? Misery and despair?? Children?? In that messed up world?? With that economy??? And the environment crisis we’re living?? Nope, I don’t get it 🤷♀️ I just don’t.
Secretly, I had always dreamed of Elena, Stefan, Damon and Caroline all being vampires and spending eternity together. And double date forever, I guess 😅
NOOOOOOOOO 😭😭😭 R.I.P Jo 💔
LIV !!!! 💔 NO, NO, NO, NO! Whyyyy 😭
AND THAT BASTARD GETS TO LIVE!!! What did do you do Lily? Oh my freaking God, why would you turn Kai into an heretic? He was already such a pain in the ass and now he’s even more powerful! Thanks to you, he has killed his entire family and he gets to live!! 🤬🤬
I ABSOLUTELY HATE WHAT THEY DID WITH BONNIE AND ELENA!! That whole "I linked your life with Elena’s" 😡 Cause it’s like : OF COURSE, we want to pick the main character. Of course we want Elena to come back to life. Of course we would be ready to sacrifice Bonnie if it means that Elena gets to live in the present with her friends and family. BUT BONNIE DOESN’T DESERVE THAT! She deserves to be the one, as Caroline used to say, to be picked upon everybody else. She deserves to live as much as Elena, even more (after everything she has done, everything she has sacrificed for her friends). She deserves to be happy! But now, everyone resents her for being alive, because if she’s alive then that means she is taking "Elena’s place". Now she feels guilty for being alive and breathing. For. Fucking. Being. Alive. Think about that. Again, I’m sorry if I repeat myself but : WHY THE HELL DID THIS SHOW HATE BONNIE’S CHARACTER SO MUCH?? 🤬🤬🤬
I’m just gonna say it once : The show is just not the same without Elena 🤷♀️
Btw, I KNOW Kai specifically said not to try anything to undo the spell he casted - otherwise Elena and Bonnie would BOTH die... But I’m surprised they didn’t even try to search for a loophole 🤔 I mean, let’s be real, when has Damon ever listened to anyone trying to reason with him? When did any of them? 🤷♀️ Bonnie would NEVER stop looking for a magical loophole to save her best friend. Caroline would read an entire library of mystical books to find a clue. Stefan and Damon would travelled the whole world to meet with different witches, trying to find some kind of magic that could undo the spell. No one would ever listen to Kai and just do nothing! I mean, he could be bluffing for all they know 😵 He could be saying that in order to mess with them. Were they really gonna take his word for granted? 🤔 I’m not saying "try the first anti-spell you find and roll the dices", but at least try and look for something!
S7 :
Anyway, AT LEAST, we get to see some good sweet Bamon scenes ! I love how Damon seemed to genuinely care about Bonnie. He didn’t want her to die, even if it meant he would see Elena again 💕
"You’re my best friend" awwwwww ❤️
I... liked the Heretics!😳 They were a fun new, even if they reminded me of Pearl and her vampire friends (in the "we are trying to coexist with humans but some of us don’t want to" trope). And again, I kinda have a thing for supernatural dysfunctional family, so... 🤷♀️ Valerie was very relatable as a depressed immortal being, Beau was so loyal it was really sweet, Malcom was boring but he died pretty quickly so he wasn’t in the show for long, Mary Louise and Nora were... the absolute cutest couple ❤️
How many times can they evacuate Mystic Falls without people realizing something’s wrong? 🤔 How many stories about gaz leak can they come up with?? 🤦♀️ Where are all the humans going? They’re moving away because they’re all compelled, sure, but to go where? like how can that many people find new homes in new cities, especially considering this crappy housing market? It just seems pretty unlikely that these people would just start over so easily, find new jobs, new homes for their families🧐
Stefan & Valerie was basically Steferine all over again 🤷♀️ I don’t have anything against Valerie herself. I think she’s probably the nicest one amongst the heretics. I even liked her chemistry with Stefan but it’s the same storyline recycled all over again, so I don’t really care much. Plus, I liked the idea that Katherine was Stefan’s first love (💕). First of all, Katherine being Stefan’s first love makes their story... EPIC. We, as an audience, care deeply about Katherine (whether we like her or not). She’s a regular and important character. We want her to have a compelling story, one that fits the legend that was Katherine Pierce. Valerie, as nice and interesting as she can be, only appears in the two last season. Plus, if Stefan had already been in love with Valerie and had already had his heart broken BEFORE knowing Katherine, then he should have acted differently when he met her 💡 He should have been way more suspiciously towards her 🧐 he wouldn’t have so easily trusted another woman, coming at his door with a pity story... if he had already been betrayed and abandoned by THE FIRST WOMAN he ever loved, the one who took his "v-card", his first love.
Hello Oscar... Goodbye Oscar 👋
Are you kidding me ? Bonnie is in pain yet again, because of some mystical element AGAIN, and nobody cares AGAIN. People keep using her, lying to her, manipulating her to get what they want and I- 🤬 Btw HOW is she okay with this? How would Bonnie ever agree to help raise people from the dead? What about her values and morals? What about everything she believes in??
These "Three Years from Now" scenes were just TERRIBLE 🤦♀️ Epic failure. I simply don’t care about whatever happens in the "future”. I’ll make my own headcanons, thank you ✋
JULIAN... UGH 🤢🤮 Could you be even more despicable?? Beating up a pregnant woman to the point of loosing her baby?? Poor Valerie, she didn’t feel like she could tell her own mother about that cause’ she knew Lily wouldn’t believe her 😢
Awwwwwww Ric bringing ""Jo"" back from the dead 😭💖 I felt bad for that poor vampire who just woke up in somebody else’s body, after years being trapped in some hell... And It was really heartbreaking to watch him get his hopes up and then realise she wasn’t his wife :’(
OMG CAROLINE’S PREGNANT??? 🤰WITH RIC’S BABIES??? 😱 I... I don’t even know what to think of that. I don’t really know how to react... Good for the twins? I guess? Yay, they’re alive? But... I don’t know, seems kinda rapy to put someone else’s babies inside a woman’s body without her consent ?? 🧐
The fact that Valerie HAD to confess her very traumatic story, to multiple people, MULTIPLE TIMES... because it was convenient to the plot was disgusting! 🤮🤬 She was merely used as a reason to try to kill Julian... Valerie was beaten by Julian to the point she lost her baby! She never said anything because she was afraid no one would believe her/people would judge her/people would hurt her - which is completely understandable considering how traumatic this must have been for her! But then she comes back to MF and Stefan keeps asking her to justify herself like she owes him a goddamn explanation for not having returned earlier as she had promised... um? I get that Stefan had his heart broken back then, but aren’t you mature enough NOW to understand something wrong must have happened?? And that maybe she just doesn’t want to talk about it because it still hurts?? It’s HER life and she is entitled to live it however the hell she wants?? EVEN if she just changed her mind and decided not to come back for an entirely different reason, it’s her choice! Having sex with someone ONCE doesn’t mean you OWE them anything! 🤦♀️🤬 Promises were made, sure, but they were both very young and things can change! ANYWAY... And when they need allies to kill Julian, she is almost forced to tell her story again, just to make people feel pity and sympathy... She’s not a damn tool, for God’s sake, respect the poor girl! 😤
While rewatching the show, I kind of like that they addressed Lily’s romantic patterns and how she had a tendency to chose violent, controlling, abusing husbands (first Giuseppe, and then Julian...) 🧐 It was touching to hear her story, and to understand that she only stayed with Giuseppe back then to protect her sons, Damon & Stefan. She had a plan to run away, she wanted to escape because she knew she was in danger with him, she was well aware he wasn’t treating her right. But sometimes you can’t just go away. Sometimes things are more complicated. 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️ I liked that she realised her own pattern and that she tried to stand up for herself against Julian after that... even though it didn’t end well (which... seriously? 🤦♀️ She killed herself? Is that the message you wanna send to all the people stuck in abusive/violent relationship? 🤮)
Poor Lily 😭😭😭 R.I.P. 💔
Damon burning Elena’s coffin... 🔥🔥 Yeah. Sure. As if 🙄 Honestly, even on my first watch, I wasn’t believing it. The show without Elena is such a catastrophic mess! If she had died in her sleep, it would have been devastating. I don’t think the show would have survived that. I think it would have been cancelled before s8, or something like that.
Stefan was... surprisingly not reacting a lot to Caroline being PREGNANT🤰?? I mean... I don’t know... I was expecting some kind of big talk about it. Like "hey Caroline, how are you feeling about all this? What are your thoughts about having Ric’s babies? Do you even want to pursue the pregnancy (cause you DON’T have to carry someone else’s babies!)? What does this pregnancy mean to you? What will happen once the babies are born? Would you consider having shared custody with Ric? Or if you don’t want to be involved at all, would you like the twins not to know you were the one who carried them? Did you ever or would you ever want to be a mom? Would you want to have children of your own in the future? Do you ever think of that?” 🤷♀️ And those are just EXAMPLES. He didn’t have to ask all of these questions all at once! But you know, I wish they could have at least discussed some of these points together. Instead, he just let her "handle her things", because good old organised Caroline has every figured it out, of course! 🙄🙄 sure, she can take care of everything on her own 🤦♀️
I didn’t like the idea of putting Damon & Stefan in the Phoenix Stone... if it was all JUST to do THAT in the end. They tried to add some PTSD, pain and remorse but failed at making it compelling to the audience. Wooow, Stefan must let go of his toxic relationship with his brother in order to save himself... How obnoxious can you be, TVD? And oooohh, Damon must get rid off his toxic masculinity to face the fact that he loved and misses his mother... how original!! 🙄 I just feel like TVD was trying hard to be deeper than they were, and it didn’t work (for me)
FINALLY JULIAN IS DEAD 🙌🙏🎉
The Huntress was, like, a JOKE, okay? She’s supposed to have killed a thousands of vampires. Even heretics feared her. Stefan & Damon should already have been dead by now! What is she doing? How are we supposed to be afraid of her? She’s not doing anything, she is barely a threat 🤦♀️
Am I the only one who kinda saw great chemistry between Nora and Bonnie?💕
I LOVE how Klaus just IMMEDIATELY understood that Caroline was NEVER gonna let go of these kids 😍 I just love how he ultimately gets her, how he’s able to predict exactly what’s she’s going to do because he just knows her that well. Their phone talk was VERY cute ❤️ I love how he teased her with her own words : how she said she couldn’t possibly allow herself to be with him because she was "in college, building a life for herself” and he just wasn’t in the picture... and then turns out... she had kids! 😅 He sounded surprised but not completely shocked and I love how he was very understanding and sweet with her, she needed that 💕
Btw this season is just desperately LONG!
Awwww... Caroline... 😬 I understand why she wanted to stay in Dallas, and why she asked Stefan to consider moving here... but she should have been honest with him right away, the minute he picked up the phone. She should have told him she wanted to be involved in these kids’ life. I know that she was afraid Stefan wouldn’t want to “settle down" with her and take care of the twins... but she could have asked him. Directly. Clearly. Maybe he wouldn’t have minded living with her and raising the twins in some kind of shared custody 🤷♀️ Family comes in all shapes and sizes (💖), and as long as they told the truth to the twins, it wouldn’t have been a problem. And if Stefan didn’t want that at all, or wasn’t ready, or whatever, then they could have ended their relationship in a healthy way. By acknowledging they both wanted different things and that it just didn’t work out, as it often happens in life. But here, they’re just stuck in the middle... and it’s awkward 😳😐 Clearly, Caroline wants to live near the girls. She wants to be their mom, and clearly Stefan doesn’t seem THAT into it. But no one is saying anything and it’s just weird! 😤
I understand why Damon would make the choice of dessiccating in a coffin until Elena came back 🙂 He didn’t do it just for love. Not just because he missed her. Not because life was unbearable without her. That would have been really lame btw 😒 He did it because he didn’t want to directly or indirectly hurt people around him. And you know what, for once that was kind of the best, most reasonable - and most noble - decision to make. I was proud of him. The letter he gave Alaric was pretty sweet, but I’m glad Bonnie got to catch him before he left 💕
Bonnie saying "I’m not okay with that”😭 I was soooo glad that FOR ONCE she said what she was really thinking ! 👐Damon is her best friend, and I truly believe learning he left in a letter would have been devastating for her 😞 His choice means she will most likely NEVER see him again, ever, in her entire life 💔 I can totally understand her asking sincerly "are we friends?" cause if one my friends dared to do that, I would be pretty upset. I liked that she asked him to be honest. No joke. No deflecting mecanism. No sarcasm. No insults. Just the truth. ❤️
I REALLY REALLY don’t care about what happens "three years from now" 🤷♀️ Ugh I hate this season, things are so slow and boring, the storyline isn’t interesting at all, and frankly... i wanna die💀
NOOOOO MARY-LOUISE AND NORA DIDN’T DESERVE THAT 💔😭😭
Ugh 😑 The whole idea of the vampire souls trapped in the Phoenix’s stone being reunited with the wrong bodies was just lame and boring 😒
I genuinely felt bad for Valerie 😞 you can see she truly loved Stefan and it must have hurt to see he didn’t feel the same, despite having spent basically three years together :/ Again, that’s kind of my general problem with Stefan: he’s so afraid he’s gonna hurt people that he’s never fully honest with anyone! 🙄 Same shit with Caroline. He just abandoned her because he couldn’t deal with this situation. What Stefan fails to realise is that he does hurt people by keeping things from them, by always running away. I’m sorry but women around him deserve better 🤷♀️
Bonenzo... I remember shipping it back then, but now, I just don’t feel it 🤷♀️ i get why people do, sure they both care deeply about each other and you can clearly see that (the guitar scenes were very cute 💕)... but it’s mostly flashbacks and that doesn’t have the same effect on me. Because I wasn’t there to see them developing a special bond over time. I still think they’re cute and I’m happy to see Bonnie finally fall in love with someone who truly loves her back ❤️
OF COURSE BONNIE IS THREATENED BY SOME MAGICAL ELEMENT THAT IS SORT OF CONVENIENT FOR THE STORY. OF COURSE. 🤬😡 I’m so mad, I’m so fucking mad at the show for treating her this way. She’s always the one in danger. She can never be happy for more than two episodes!!
Ooooohhh nooooo Bonnie’s the new Huntress 😭😭😭 She’s gonna want to kill everyone: Damon, Stefan, Caroline, even Enzo!! Nooooo 💔
OH THANK GOD, SHE DIDN’T KILL ENZO 🙏🙏🙏 I was so afraid. For Enzo but most of all for Bonnie! She would have been devastated if she’d killed him!
“You changed my life” awwww I feel bad for Ric, the same way I felt really sad for Valerie... They both hoped the moments of pure happiness they shared with their partner would turn out to be something more. They both dreamed of starting new with their loved one, to have their own perfect little happy life... 💕 even though they knew deep down the other one didn’t love them back. Not the way they wanted to be loved. And that’s sad 😭
Damon & Enzo being manipulated and brainwashed by that thing in that vault, at the end of s7 🙄 seriously? Who would have seen that coming ? 🙋♀️
Ugh, s7 was PAINFUL to watch 😑
S8 :
Yiiiiikes 🤢🥴 whatever that thing is, it’s not friendly! That scene where Damon and Enzo feed it was kinda freaky!
Ric running the armory makes sense actually! I’m quite happy about that :) he’s been wanting real hard to get back to his Indiana-Jones type of life ✊ He would have never been happy with a perfect little family life... even with Jo, I believe 🤷♀️ He truly loved her but at the end of the day, he has just seen too much. He knows too much to just stop fighting at all. That’s what makes him Ric.
A SIREN !!!! Cool ! Now we’re talking 😎
I understand why Damon would submit completely to Sybil : he has always hated himself for all the terrible things he’d done, he has always thought he wasn’t worthy of redemption, and now Sybil provided him a proof of that, a vision of literal Hell, of eternal torture... 👺😈 plus she erased all memories of Elena 😭 he has no reason not to work for Sybil. She’s the only one who can provide a way out of Hell. Who wouldn’t take that deal? If I suddenly found out no matter what you do, you’re damned to an eternity of pain and misery and loneliness, and the only way to escape that is to work for Satan, aka Cade, I would probably do it too 🤷♀️
The way Enzo resisted Sybil’s mind control for Bonnie was really sweet 💕 I felt bad when he had to shut down his humanity to save her life 😭
Honestly, I know I should care about Tyler’s death but he was never my favorite character and he’s been so... in and out of the show that I kinda stopped caring about him at all (since he wasn’t exactly a regular character) 😕 But he surely didn’t deserve to be collateral damage in that mess :( Also, I thought Caroline would react a bit strongly. I mean, Tyler was important for her and she barely said something? Weird 🤷♀️
CAROLINE AND STEFAN ARE GONNA GET MARRIED !! 💍 She said YES! OMG! Tbh I might not ship them (because I think Stefan got away with the pain he caused her a little bit too fast) but I’m happy for Caroline: she finally got to have her June Wedding!! 💛🎉 (though I’d prefer she married Klaus of course!)
I really liked the whole mythology of the sirens 🧜♀️ the story about the village girl and the island girl becoming sisters, having to kill and eat people in order to survive, was heartbreaking! But I was so sure Sybil was the “nice” one 🥺 Poor girl
Noooooo, poor Georgie 😭💔 knowing she is going straight to Hell is horrible, considering she’s seen and experienced it before and she knows what awaits her :(
Sebine played her game very well, no one suspected her to be Sybil’s sister 🤔 she’s really creepy and I’m so so so afraid for the girls 😱 she clearly has an evil plan for them and I’m so anxious 😱
"I’m your brother and I love you. Please come home with me” awww Stefan ❤️
Awwwwww Enzo and Bonnie ❤️ “I’m never leaving you” okay now I remember why I shipped them! They’re adorable! She chose him over her own best friend. She picked Enzo because no one else did. Ever. And she thought he deserved a chance, because deep down he is such a sweet, loving, caring person. He might not look like it, but he’s maybe the one who cares the most and who’s actually ready to do anything for his loved ones. I think Enzo might be the big love of her life. And I’m so happy she got to have that. I’m so happy she got to meet him, to enjoy his company for a little while, to appreciate every happy moments ❤️
AAAAAH SELINE TOOK THE GIRLS!! 😱
Caroline finally doing the healthy thing and prioritising her daughters over everything else 💖💖💖 Take that ring back, Stefan. At least for now. Caroline took the right decision. She cannot make compromises when it comes to the girls. She cannot allow herself to add any more variables to this already messy situation. Yes, it’s selfish but she has to be.
WHAT? I seriously hope you’re kidding Ric! HOW DARE YOU telling Caroline she isn’t the girls’ mother? 🤬😡 She carried them, she agreed to pursue the pregnancy and give birth to kids who weren’t even “her own”, she raised them, she put food on their table, she tucked them in at night, she loved and cared for them more than anyone could have ever askef her, she basically had to let go of her entire life in order to live with them as a family... She IS their mother. She will ALWAYS be ❤️
Damon and Stefan’s deal with Cade to take the twins’ place !! 😱😱🔥 I really hope they find a way to get out of this one, but I don’t see how, right now... And Stefan is heading to a dark place :/ I hope Damon will be able to bring him back!✊
Speaking of Damon, I am SO glad he got to free himself from Sybil’s influence! 🙏 Stefan, on the other hand... meh? 😒 I’m not so sure I’m a fan of the old ripper storyline, I mean we already watched it once and we KNOW it’s not gonna last for long cause they have to wrap it up eventually, and I feel like this is just here as a cheap way to create drama between him and Caroline and idk that was kinda unnecessary 🤷♀️
ENZOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭💔 NONONONONONONONONOOOOOO!!!!! Poor Bonnie 😭 She was finally gonna get the happiness she deserved! RIP Enzo ☠️
OMGGG STEFAN’S HUMAN 🤯🤯🤯 Wow I wonder how he’s gonna take it, I mean on one hand being a vampire brought him a lot of pain, but on the other, it’s all he has known for centuries... rethinking your entire life, the basis of your existence, after all that time... ouch!
Kai is BACK ? Seriously ? Again ? I mean I like him, but let’s just say there are other people I would like to see again (#enzo❤️)
Btw I’m really conflicted about Bonnie trying to bring Enzo back : I want her to do it, of course, I want Enzo back, but I don’t want her to loose herself in the process 😱😭 I’m so scared for her :(
Stefan literally killing the Devil like 😎😎 “oh yeah bitch, bet you weren’t expecting that uh” ☝️ I am so so PROUD of my babyface :) also I’m really glad they got rid off Cade (ugh, I was so done with him)
Ahah, Kai’s in another prison world 🤣
OF 👏 COURSE 👏 KATHERINE 👏 IS 👏 THE 👏 QUEEN 👏 OF 👏 HELL 👏
Aaawwww I really really loved when Damon gave Elena’s necklace to Caroline 💕 their little chat was very cute: he knew she was quite sad because her wedding was being rushed and used as an excuse to drag out Katherine; she was going to walk down the aisle without her mother; Bonnie wasn’t gonna come; Elena wouldn’t be there; Alaric didn’t want to come... the MOST important day of her life was basically ruined 👰 and... idk he was being very sweet and compassionate with her :)
OOOOHH THEY’RE ACTUALLY GETTING MARRIED FOR REAL THOUGH! And Bonnie’s here!! Soooo cute 💖 I love how Damon insisted on the “does anybody want to object against this wedding?” part, like “really? No one?”
NOOOOOOOO THE GIRLS 😱😱🔥🤬
Omg they’re fine, I’m so relieved 🙏
Awww Bonnie saying goodbye to Enzo for real... that was so... bittersweet 😭 But he’s right: she’s gotta live her life. She cannot spend her entire life thinking about the people she could have spent more time with: Enzo, Elena, for instance. She has to focus on herself. On being happy. And I’m really glad for her ❤️
Katherine is literally gonna blow up the WHOLE TOWN !! Seems a bit extreme but I’m really not surprised xD such a Katherin-y thing to do, if you think about it
OMG FINAL EPISODE 😱😱😱
Okay, first I was like “I don’t understand why is everybody so obsessed with the idea of saving Mystic Falls”. 🤷♀️ Sure it’s their home, their childhood town, full of memories and all... but since Matt helped evacuate the entire town, there was no immediate danger for the population of MF. And at the end of the day, it’s JUST a town 🏙 It’s just buildings and roads and objects that can be replaced. It can be rebuilt over time. So Bonnie, Caroline, Damon, Stefan... they could have all just run far way from MF and then everything would have been just FINE 👍
But THEN Katherine captured Elena and trapped her in the high school 😈 NO WAY the Salvatore brothers would have just sacrificed Elena in hellfire 🔥🙅♀️
NOOOOOO I don’t want Damon to die 😭 But I also don’t want Stefan to die! Why do their plans always include one of them dying? Sounds like Supernatural 😅
THANK GOD 🙏 Bonnie’s here to save the day 💖 Damn, what would they ever do without her?? I liked how she fought for herself till the very end :) “it’s not my time” YOU BET YOUR ASS IT’S NOT 👏
OOOOMMMMGGG STEFAN’S DEAD 💀😱🔥 HE CAME BACK!!! HE CAME BACK FOR HIS BROTHER!! HE SAVED DAMON!! HE SACRIFICED HIMSELF!!! HE LEGIT DESTROYED HELL!! AND HE KILLED KATHERINE WITH IT!! 🤯
AND DAMON IS HUMAN!!! 🤯🤯🤯
AWWWWW LEXI IS THERE!! 🥰 I’m so happy to see her! I’ve missed her! Awww he found peace with his best friend 💕 I’m so glad for him! He deserves that!
“I was feeling epic” 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Honestly, it felt kinda cheap and too easy that Bonnie would just suddenly realise she had enough power to do ANYTHING, including breaking the spell that she wasn’t supposed to interfere with in ANY way, because she would be risking Elena’s life (and probably her own). Like, ok, she destroyed hell and that boosted her confidence enough that she decided she would just try it ? 🤷♀️ mmm... seems too easy... like why didn’t she do that earlier then ? Why did this entire season even happen then ? What was the point? What was the point of Bonnie realising she was worth living her life and that she didn’t have to feel guilty about Elena? Why would the show erase that wonderful character growth??? I- 🤷♀️
“We’ll see him again” ❤️ awwww I really love how they decide to develop Damon and Caroline’s relationship in the end... They both really acted like brother / sister in law. And that was genuinely cute. They both lost someone they loved and cared about deeply. I like that they know they can count on each other.
Awwwww Stefan got Caroline’s message, that’s really cute :) I hope it will help her move on, knowing he heard her, and he will love her forever too 💕
BONNIE’S HAPPY!!! SHE’S ALONE BUT SHE IS FINE BECAUSE SHE DOESN’T NEED SOMEBODY ELSE TO BE HAPPY! SHE LOVES HERSELF AND SHE LOVES LIFE AND SHE’S GONNA ENJOY HER LIFE TO THE FULLEST AND TRAVEL THE WORLD!! YAY! 🌈🎊🎉
The Salvatore boarding school : so it’s basically Hogwarts? Okay why not 🤷♀️ It’s not the big ending I was expecting for Caroline and tbh I’m a bit disappointed (but I guess her story doesn’t stop there and it’s more of a To Be Continued kind of ending) but it makes perfect sense for Alaric 🤔 Jo seing her daughters 💖 And Jeremy is a teacher there LMAO 😆
Awwwwww my Klaroline feels ❤️❤️❤️ “however long it takes” I CANNOT BELIEVE THE SHOW GAVE US A “MAYBE” FOR THAT SHIP. Honestly it’s more than I ever wished I would get! I’ll make my own headcanons, it’s perfect!
“I owe it all to Stefan” awww, true :’)
So what I got from Elena’s monologue: she had a great life, she was happy, she became a doctor, she grew old in Mystic Falls, she married Damon (funny how she doesn’t mention having kids? It was one of her biggest dreams, so idk 🤷♀️), then I guess SHE died before Damon did (-> what makes me think that is the scene where she holds his hands and says something along the lines of “I know peace exists and I know he will find it someday even though he doubts it” and then he disappears and she finds herself in the after life), and then she found peace and got reunited with her family in death 🧐 So bittersweet, I liked it! 💕 Even if I think it would have deserved to be a bit longer, a bit more explained, a bit more developed than just a “here’s what happened” 🤷♀️ It did feel rushed :/
“Hello brother” WAS THE LAST LINE OF THE SHOW! HOW. EPIC. IS. THAT.

Ever have a family member that you didn't like? so much so that if they weren't related to you, you would never even consider being their friend? I have one, and that's my little sister. Sad isn't it? It wasn't always this way.
Before I get into why we don't speak, I'm not coming from a place of judgement. I'm nobody to judge, which she doesn't understand. She thinks I judge her, but in all honesty she has made poor Choices and she doesn't take accountability. I decided to set boundaries with her and that makes me "judgy" apparently.
Let's call her Rain. Rain is 5 years younger than me, so that makes her 32. She's the baby of the family and has really taken that title to the next level. This girl has always been the "crazy" one, partying a lot, following bands on tour in Mexico, boy crazy ... always getting her way. That's ok too, as long as she was always being safe. I understood that when she was 18, 19 ... 20. Rain talks a lot of shit for someone who doesn't have their shit together, and I swear it comes back to her each time. Whatever she was talking shit on happens to her.
Anyway, I can go on and on about her crazy childhood and teen years, I could probably write a book about it, time I dont have right now though. I'm just going to jump forward a bit.
2012. She went through a divorce a few years ago from the father of her kids. Very ugly, bitter divorce. Rain has 2 kids, a girl who's 10 and a boy who's 6. Rain got pregnant by a one night stand And they were forced to get married by his parents, they are very religious and felt it was the right thing. I didnt agree with that, but she went ahead and did it. They tried to make the marriage work, they got pregnant again with the boy, hoping it would help them. Rain was fed up though, she hated her life, she wanted to go out and party, be with her friends who were living their lives, but she couldn't. She hated it. She used to live next door to me, we lived in a small apartment in LA and when the neighbors moved we told them to apply for it and they got it. They lived there for about a year until one day Rain decided to leave. She took her kids and they moved in with my mom. Her husband was beside himself, he asked me for advice. I didnt know the ins and outs of the relationship, things are always different behind closed doors right ? She claimed that he beat her, he controlled her, abused her. He claimed she would sneak out to go party and didnt want to care for the kids. A lot of back and forth ... very different stories. So, he stayed in the apartment for about another year before he gave up and filed for divorce. He hoped she would come back, but she was very happy living her new life. She was living rent free and was able to go out, since our mom was home and able to watch the kids. Ok, cool.
Divorce was done and she was free. She started dating, sleeping around ... no judgement, she was single. As long as she was safe. BUT, we found out she moved some guy into my moms condo without my mom knowing. My mom works and travels alot, so it's easy for this to happen. But when my mom found out, she was upset, but didn't do anything about it. I was mad only because she has a little girl and she didn't really know this guy. Ya know? Plus the kids didn't have their own rooms, they slept with her. It was just weird for me. Anyway, couple years later they broke up and he moved out. Then another guy, and another one ... I didn't like the fact that her kids met all these new guys, or that she moved them in. It's like she cant be without a man.
Ex husband fought for 50/50 custody (thank God) and had them on the weekend. Every weekend. Also, ex husband got remarried but Rain doesn't get along with new wife. I wonder why to be honest, I met her and she's nice. I guess it's a territorial thing ? The kids love their stepmom, so that's all that matters.
Ok, now we are in 2018. I'm pregnant with Olivia. We had a falling out for a few months because she stole 2k from our mom. Not cool. They have the same name, so it was easy for her. So I hadn't spoken to her but the day I gave birth she showed up at the hospital. We spoke as if we were never in an argument. It's weird how sisters can do that, right ? I let it go, if mom didn't care why should I. After having Olivia my mom wanted me to stay at her place for 2 weeks so she could help me while I recovered. So, we moved in right after I got out of the hospital. First couple of days were nice, rain was there and was helping with the baby. Her kids were ecstatic to have us there, Bella was having a blast. I had heard of a new boyfriend that she had, but I hadn't yet met. She wanted to take it slow and not introduce him yet. I understand since all the rest were douchbag.
Rain received sad news about an ex boyfriend from high school who had been killed in a hit and run. I remember him, he was the sweetest. They had remained friends over the years so she was devastated. She planned to attend the funeral but didn't want to take her kids. Since I was staying there I offered to watch the kids, I didnt want them to have to go to the funeral.
Side note: I rarely offer to help with her kids because she never shows up the time she says. Also, I used to pick up the kids from school and I had to take them to my place until she got home, usually late and I had to help with homework and dinner. It was hard for us sometimes as we had things to do and we had to take her kids with us. However her kids love us, they say we are the parents they wish they had.
Ok, back to the story. She goes to the funeral.
Day 1: A few hours go by and it's getting later and later. I'm about 5 days post partum, so naturally I'm exhausted. Mom is at work, so we're just at my moms place hanging out. I text her, no response. I text again, no response. I'm starting to worry. I put all the kids to bed and assure the kids they'll see their mom in the morning. Around midnight my phone rings and it's an unknown number. I answered right away since I was worried about rain. It's one of rains old friend from high school who attended the funeral. He says to me that Rain had a lot to drink and was not able to get home. He says to me that she's ok, it was a rough day for all of them and he would bring her home in the morning. I had no choice, so I agreed and we hung up.
(Come to find out later that was her boyfriend on the line, pretending to be a friend from HS, she had left the funeral hours ago)
Day 2: We wake up and we get the kids ready for school. I'm still trying to get used to the new baby while juggling breakfast for the kids. Her kids kept asking about mom, so I told them she was at her best friend's house because it got late. Eli drove all the kids and then left for work. I'm home all day at my moms, had a few visitors wanting to see the baby. No word from Rain yet. No word from Rain all day. Eli picks up all the kids after school and brings them home. We make dinner and play, while attempting to call and text Rain for an answer. Mom is calling Rain leaving voicemails telling her to get her ass home. No call backs and no reply. We all go to bed. Around 2 am I heard my bedroom door open but it was dark and I could not see, I heard keys and the front door close. It took me a minute to get up, post csection, it's hard. Who was here?
Day 3: woke up, its daylight and bright in the house. I go to the kids room, maybe Rain showed up last night, maybe shes asleep. I walk in to see the kids asleep, but no Rain. I walk into her closet and I see stuff has been taken, shoes and clothes. I look for a toothbrush and it's gone. Perfumes, gone. Hmmm did Rain come last night to get her stuff ? I text Rain, now I'm mad. I'm frantically texting her that she better reply and I threaten to call ex husband. Oh? Guess what ? I got a reply. Interesting.
She texted something along the lines of: hey, its Rain. Sorry I haven't texted you. I'm having a rough time with S death. I need some time. I feel so lost. I'm with J at his place (J is her new boyfriend) . Are you ok to watch the kids, I'll be back. I'll text you.
My response: uh, well yea I mean I guess bit what should I tell them ? When are you coming back? Look, I know this is rough so I'll hang on to them until tomorrow, cool ?
I got no response after that, but at least I know she was ok. I updated mom and middle sister and we all felt better but were still shocked about how inconsiderate she was being.
Day 4: no text or phone call at all. We get the kids to school, pick them up, get homework done. Kids shower and go to bed. Her daughter who was maybe 7 or 8 at the time was worried. She was texting her too, I read her messages : mom, please come home. Where are you ?
I was so mad at this point. Her daughter was so worried and slept at the foot of the bed every night waiting for her mom. So Infuriating. I'm still exhausted and in pain.
I get a call from cousin in Florida, at around 10 pm which his time was 1am. He calls me and asks me what's going on? I had not yet told him what was happening so I was wondering what he was referring to. Rain had just called him. She was drunk out of her mind in DTLA in some bar, she was crying and yelling about how she Hates her life, how she Hates being a mom and Hates everything. Cousin told her to calm down and that he would call me to go pick her up in DTLA. We called her back on three way but cousin told me to be quiet. I listened to that mess for 30 minutes before I had to hang up. She was yelling and cussing, she told him NOT to tell me because I'm judgy ass bitch, wanna be perfect mom and I'll talk shit to her.
At this point, I'm over her. How can she do this to her kids? To me ? I'm over here, still freaking bleeding after my delivery, making sure her kids are safe and fed and loved. While she's out partying ? At bars ? I called cousin back and told him that I will not go get her in DTLA.
Day 5: I think this was a Thursday now, we had picked up the kids from school and went to shakeys pizza for dinner. No texts or calls from Rain all day. I was considering calling ex husband since the weekend was getting close. But, I remembered that he lost his weekend privileges for hitting the little boy. I didn't know what to do at this point.
Side note: little boy has behavior issues, he's been held back from kindergarten for his behavior and bad grades. He spit in his step moms face and ex husband hit him with a belt that left a mark. Rain took him to court to get full custody. He didnt lose the kids however, he had to attend parenting and anger management classes, which he did and his case was dismissed.
Day 6: no word yet. I texted her boyfriend and I told him to bring her home. I told him she has worried children. I asked him if he knew she has 2 kids at home. Want to know what his reply was?
Thank you for your concern.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONCERN !!! ??? Really?? A big fat Fuck You. I think at this point my blood pressure rose, I got heated and my neck started to pound. I cried out of frustration and sadness for my niece and nephew. I thought, what if I adopt them ? I thought about bringing them with me to AZ? Ex husband would fight me for them though. I called friends for advice. I asked middle sister for guidance. Everyone told me to report her to child protection services. But I couldn't because of the fear they would take the kids to a foster home. At that time I couldn't take them to my place. It was small and would not meet criteria for 2 extra kids. Nobody could take them if we needed. I prayed about it.
I had my finger in the phone ready to call CPS, but I couldn't do it. My mom begged me not to she begged me to continue to help with the kids until Rain got home. She told me we needed to help her, she was not ok. I didnt call them. I couldn't. I love those kids. I couldn't put them through that.
I texted Rain in one final attempt. I told her she needed to pick up her kids from school and if she did not then I was going to report her. No answer.
Turns out I didnt have to. Daughter spoke to a counselor at school and the school reported it. When Eli went to pick up the kids they did not release them to him, CPS was there. They called me shortly after and asked me what was going on. I explained to them. They called ex husband but since he couldn't take them at the time due to court restrictions they asked his parents to take them. His parents home did not meet criteria and they were taken to a foster care for the night.
I cannot begin to tell you how much I cried that night. I cried so hard. I was so mad. I was infuriated. How can she do this to them ? Did I fail them ? They must have been so scared. I had my new baby in my arms, breastfeeding and crying for those kids when I should have been enjoying every second with Olivia. I went home that night. I couldn't stay at my moms anymore.
Day 7: I wake up in a fog, still upset from the night before. I check my phone and I had a missed call from middle sister. I called her back and she tells me Rain was able to get her kids back last night from CPS and she is at home. How did that happen I ask ? Middle sister said that she thought I called CPS last night and told them it was all a misunderstanding and I was just upset about babysitting for a few hours.
What? I didn't call ...
Someone impersonated me. She had someone call pretending it was me ... that really scared me.
I called my mom and she said yes, Rain has the kids. CPS apparently asked my mom if this was true that Rain had been gone only for a few hours and my mom totally covered for her.
My mom reason behind it was because she doesn't want the kids to go to a foster home.
I didnt speak to my mom for 2 months after that call.
A couple days after that I received a text from Rain and she basically told me off and told me that she can't believe I reported her. I told to her that I did not make the call...but I should have. We completely blocked each other from everything. She told everyone we know, friends and relatives that I reported her. That's fine, I'll take it.
Get this though, this girl can't get it together to save her life. She has now lost custody of the kids to ex husband. After so much drama, her showing up late for drop offs and pick ups, showing up drunk, starting fights with new wife, picking kids up late from school ... ex husband documented everything and he got a video of her drunk at pick up. The kids now live with him in a house and are doing so well. They're so happy. They chose to live with dad. Oh and the things the kids told the judge, so sad. Apparently she doesn't even cook for them. She's allowed visitation every other weekend. She still lives with my mom, has NO job, no goals... she just parties and hangs out with that douch.
My mom was out of town when this court meeting happened and Rain lost the kids, so nobody actually heard why she lost them. Apparently she told mom that it was because of me, that the judge said MY NAME and that I wrote a letter or some bullshit. And my mom question me about it. First of all, so not true, they cant just use my name and say things without me being there, seriously. I wonder about my mom sometimes.
Ex husband allows me to talk to the kids whenever I want. He was the only person who thanked me for keeping his kids safe and loved. And yes he did ask me for help in taking the kids from my sister, but I said no. I decided to stay out of that.
That is something that I will never ever forgive my sister for. What she put me though, my family... and what she put her kids through. I'm not a perfect mom, not at all, but you just dont do that. And although I see her around at gatherings or holidays, we dont speak. She's not there, I completely ignore her. I go about my time with the family. I have a very strong set boundary with her and she knows it.
She knows that I didnt report her but she needs someone to blame. She cant accept her fault, but she knows. We know.

Flowerbeds and Fertile Soil: Chapter 7
Fandom: Good Omens
Rating: Explicit
Relationships: Aziraphale/Crowley (Good Omens, )Anathema Device/Newton Pulsifer
Tags: Kidfic, Mpreg kind of, they can choose to present however so idk, Crowley Has A Vulva (Good Omens), Crowley Has A Penis (Good Omens), Aziraphale Has A Penis (Good Omens), Aziraphale Has A Vulva (Good Omens), OCs Galor, parenting, using your snake form to avoid confrontation, Hurt/Comfort, Angst with a Happy Ending, Pregnancy, if I missed a tag lemme know
Summary: They could do anything, go anywhere, all without the worry of Above or Bellow making a fuss. Even so, they mostly kept to their little patch of Eden, their cottage and garden and the simple life they’d carved out among the locals. Aziraphale opened a book shop in town, where he only occasionally sold any books (and the ones he did sell, were all modern and stocked specifically for that purpose). Crowley focused his attentions on the garden, and if he occasionally helped their elderly neighbour with her disobedient willow tree, then that was a secret no one needed to know. Lately, however, they had both been feeling rather restless, unbeknownst to each other. Aziraphale tried reorganizing his store, changing the way he tied his bowtie and even ate pizza –something he considered to be far too messy for him personally. Crowley had branched out into birdwatching, and then car maintenance (the human way), and even reading. Nothing scratched the itch for either of them.
Ao3 Link
My Ko-Fi
They got the call from Newt a few days later. Baby Boy Device-Pulcifier, named Alfred or Alfie for short, was born healthy and screaming his head off. Crowley, being the more tech-savvy of the two of them, managed to facetime the other couple so Charlotte and Annabella could see the new baby and their parents. Anathema looked tired, but happy, while Newt was buzzing around the background with excitement, probably annoying all the nurses to death. Bella and Lottie had lots of questions, most of which were nearly unanswerable because they kept speaking over each other. After half-an-hour little Alfie began to wake up and fuss so they had to end the call, promising to visit as soon as they were ready to take the baby home.
“M’a big sister?” Bella asked, her excitement obvious. Crowley couldn’t help but smile as Lottie began to pout.
“I’m still the biggest sister,” she declared, stomping her foot. Aziraphale chuckled at her attitude and ruffled her hair.
“That’s true my dear, but do you know what being the biggest sister means?” She turned to him with wide eyes, more than ready for responsibility in that way only children could be. Bella had lost interest and was playing a game on Crowley’s phone, but the demon made sure to listen in. “It means you have to help out two little siblings and be twice the good example for them.”
Charlotte’s face scrunched up in concentration for a moment before she smiled with a determined look. “I can do that, Uncle Aziraphale!”
“Good girl, I know you can.” Crowley cleared his throat and cast a proud look over at the angel.
“Nice one, Aziraphale,” he praised genuinely, though the sentence sounded a little sarcastic. Aziraphale beamed all the same. It was good to see his angel feeling a little more confident in his abilities to interact with the kids. Those types of things rarely came naturally to Aziraphale and Crowley knew he was trying hard. It filled him with so much pure affection it was almost disgusting. Almost.
“Thank you, love. Shall we go out and pick something up for the little lad as a welcome-home gift?” Their god-daughters cheered, mostly because they knew their uncles wouldn’t be able to resist buying them something as well, and ran off to get ready. Crowley was already thinking about all the adorable little outfits they could buy for the new baby boy. Maybe he could spend a miracle to make sure a few of them would grow with him, at least for the first few months. It’d been a shame when the girls grew out of all the clothes they had gifted.
“Are you up to some shopping Crowley? You have a much better eye for these things than I do,” Aziraphale asked. He ran a hand up Crowley’s arm and into his hair, cradling the back of his head softly. Crowley leaned into it like he always did, soaking up the touch like the touch-starved, heat-seeking serpent he was. Even 10 years of constantly being touched and being able to touch hadn’t removed that need completely.
“Of course, do I ever turn down an opportunity to spoil the kids? And someone has to stop you from buying the poor bairn a completely tartan outfit,” he teased. Over the past three days he’d had 4 more episodes of nausea and 3 episodes of dizziness, but none as severe at the first. Now that he knew what they were and how to handle them it wasn’t so terrifying for him and the angel and there hadn’t been any more fainting spells. This morning the sickness had lingered until noon before it tapered off and now he felt fine. A little shopping might actually make him feel better.
“Fantastic. Do you think we might…?” Aziraphale trailed off nervously, but Crowley had a feeling he knew what the angel wanted to ask.
“If you see anything you really like for, uh, ours, I wouldn’t say no to picking up a few things. Not a lot mind, but you never know when you’ll see something perfect,” Crowley rambled. He adjusted his glasses to make sure they were still covering his eyes. It was a nervous tick he didn’t think he was ever going to break. His slight unease was offset by the relieved smile and small kiss on the cheek Aziraphale gave him.
“Thank you, my star. You’ll let me know if you get uncomfortable though, won’t you?” Crowley leaned down to give the angel a kiss of his own, this time on the lips.
“Sure, angel. Just don’t try and buy the entire baby store yeah?” A shrill cry from the room down the hall followed by Charlotte’s voice loudly proclaiming that she hadn’t done anything rang through the house. Both beings sighed and stepped back. Godparenthood called once again. Crowley was beginning to look forward to the girls going home. Not that he didn’t love having them around, but they were really putting a damper on his Aziraphale time. He wasn't sure if it was because of the baby or if he just really, really loved the angel but lately he'd had an almost constant need to be close to him.
Neither of them wanted to make the long drive to London, so they made the short drive down the road to the nearest baby shop instead, a little store called Cheeky Rascals (which made Crowley nearly do his own wiggle of delight each time he heard it). They’d gone here many times since the girls had been born, and were sort of known by the employees. Especially since Aziraphale was the type to gush to anyone about their godchildren.
“So we’ve agreed. Two outfits and only one toy, since they still have things from when Bella was little,” Crowley repeated for the third time since getting in the car. He doubted Aziraphale was listening, too busy imagining adorable little jacket and trouser combinations. In the back of the Bently, strapped into their car seats, Bella and Lottie argued over who would get to see Alfred first. Crowley, of course, drove the exact speed limit with utmost care while they were back there.
“Aziraphale, did you hear me? Only two,” he repeated firmly. He knew once they got there the angel would start to get carried away with the excitement of it all. Crowley didn’t feel like wrangling a flightly angel and two children at the same time, but it looked like that was going to be the case.
“Of course dear,” Aziraphale answered distractedly, like he hadn’t actually heard what Crowley said. The demon sighed and committed himself to a much less relaxing evening than he’d initially expected.
“Just, try to keep it within reason,” he begged as they pulled into the store parking lot. They each took charge of getting one of the kids out of their seatbelts and ferrying them safely through the lot and into the store. Inside was an assault of baby blue and pink, a small section of more neutral yellow, and entirely too many plush toys.
“Ok girls, why don’t we go pick something out for your new brother?” Aziraphale asked leading them down the isles into the clothing section. He waved at the clerk behind the counter, who waved back and cooed at the girls as they passed, remarking on how big they were getting. Crowley was sure she thought they were he and Azirapahle’s kids, and no explaining that they were their godchildren would convince her otherwise.
Crowley decided to leave them to it for a few minutes while he looked around for gift for the newborn hmself. He knew Anathema came from money, and could probably afford anything she and Newt wanted for their new baby, but he prided himself in finding the perfect gift for each child. Quickly striding through the stroller and car seat section he came to the toys.
The selection was overwhelming. There were soft toys, talking toys, glowing toys, and toys that did all three. He’d given Lottie a stuffed puppy that she still refused to leave the house without. For Bella he’d picked out a teddy bear that glowed slightly when you squeezed it that had made her frequent night-time worries much less frequent. Crowley needed to find something similar for the new one, which was going to be a little bit of a challenge since he hadn’t actually met the kid yet. Relying almost entirely on his Demonic Luck (which, if asked, he would deny having and instead have called it skill), he scanned the shelves, waiting for something to jump out at him.
After a few minutes of fruitless browsing, he Felt something as he passed a display filled with a variety of different plush pillows. He began to scan the piles, looking for one that felt right. Carefully, Crowley began to dig deeper into the pile, until his hand touched something. It was a blanket, barely four feet long, knit with a lovely cream base and accented with green felt leaves. Upon closer inspection it wasn’t right for his new godson; something inside his chest told him it was a little bit too dainty. But it still called to him for some reason and he couldn’t seem to get himself to put it down, like static cling had glued it to his hand. So he didn’t try, and instead bundled it up in the crook of his shoulder and kept looking.
In the end he came across a caterpillar-shaped stuffy with extremely soft fluff around the head that felt right for little Alfred. His mission completed, Crowley decided it was about time to check in with Aziraphale and get to work on cutting down the probably dozens of items he and the girls had amassed. Surprisingly when he found them, still in the clothing section, they had less than ten in their cart, with Charlotte and Annabella holding one shirt each for themselves. The shirts both read “proud big sister” which made him smile.
“Found anything you like angel?” he asked, waltzing up behind Aziraphale and resting his head on his shoulder. Aziraphale had two teeny-tiny bowties in his hands, one a blue checkered pattern and the other solid red. “The blue one would look cute with those corduroy overalls you have picked out, as much as I hate to admit it.”
“Oh, Crowley! You startled me!” Aziraphale said, shaking himself a little then holding both bowties up. “Do you really think so? I would have thought you’d prefer the red and that little jean jacket with the matching trousers.”
Crowley cast an eye over the mentioned articles and made a considering noise. “Not for him, I don’t think. It’s more, our style?” And it was. The jacket was that kind of cool-baby-chic that was very in right now, and the trousers had cute little tan patches sewn over the knees that reminded him of Aziraphale’s favourite coat.
“I think you’re right,” Aziraphale sighed, setting the red bowtie aside sadly. Crowley snatched it up and set it at the neck of the outfit. It really did go well.
“We could get it for us,” Crowley murmured, refusing to look away from the little outfit. He could picture a faceless form, a few months old crawling around in those exact garments. Or walking through St. James’ Park pushing a stroller, while the angel walks beside him, leaning down to fuss with the collar of the jean jacket, making sure it’s keeping its owner warm and happy. Embarrassed, he physically shook his head to bring himself back from that daydream. He held out the bowtie like it might burn him. “If you like it so much, I mean.”
“Oh really? I think we should. Something about it just seems very right,” Aziraphale gushed, putting the items in his buggy happily. “Did you find anything for Alfred?”
Crowley offered up the stuffed caterpillar in what he hoped was a casual fashion. It felt right, but Aziraphale’s approval of the toy was inordinately important to him. Luckily the angel smiled and nodded, saying that it was perfect. Bella and Lottie ooh-ed at the toy, each holding their hands out. Crowley didn’t hand it over though; he knew that if he did it’d never make it to its rightful owner.
“Not this time, niblings. This is for your new brother. And besides, your mum and dad would kill me if you brought home and more toys.” They didn’t kick up too much of a fuss, mostly because they already had their “sister shirts”, as they had begun calling them. Crowley breathed a sigh of relief and took a seat on a nearby bench, content to watch Aziraphale coo over baby shoes. This trip was far less traumatic than he’d been bracing for in the parking lot and it felt good to get to enjoy this in a weird, human way. Never, in all 6000 years of his life (and before that, the blurry memories of far, far Before), had he imagined he would be sitting in a baby store, shopping for his human friend's child (nevermind his own).
“Well what do you think Crowley? I’ve narrowed it down to five, and we can pick two from those?” Crowley was once again snapped out of his daydreaming to address his lover. All five outfits were perfect. Maybe he’d been giving Aziraphale too little credit before.
“Let's just get all of them. We can save a few for his first birthday or Christmas and miracle them to fit,” Crowley answered, greatly enjoying the way Aziraphale lit up. Of course he knew they’d go home with more than they intended, but how could he deny his angel anything?
“Really? That sounds like a wonderful plan. We won’t have to make another trip out here for the Holidays.” They would though, Crowley knew. They wouldn’t be able to resist giving the kid some of the outfits whenever they visited, no matter how much they tried.
“Sounds good then. Are you ready to go?” Crowley watched Aziraphale pause and go through his mental checklist. He was just about to assure him that they’d gotten everything they came for when the angel pointed to his side.
“What’s that?” Crowley looked down then felt himself blush. He’d completely forgotten about the blanket nestled in the crook of his elbow. “Is it something else for Alfred?”
“N-no,” Crowley stuttered, feeling more than a little flustered again. He’d kept his cool over the outfit mostly because Aziraphale had picked it out and he was only doing the angel a favour by saying they should buy it. The blanket was his choice and that made it all the more personal and real. “I liked it, s-so I thought maybe… you know?”
“Yes?” Aziraphale had that look on his face that said ‘I know exactly what you mean, but I want to see if I can make you say it’. It was a look that was almost always followed by Crowley making a fool of himself as he tried to muddle through his feelings.
“Bastard,” he huffed under his breath, quiet enough that the kids wouldn’t hear. “It's for--for our one? Alright?”
Of course that earned a slight laugh and a large smile from his angel. “Of course, dear boy. May I see it?” Crowley handed over the blanket with a scowl, refusing to look up from the floor. He could head Lottie whispering to Bella about how his face was nearly the same colour as his har. “It’s lovely Crowley. The leaves--and this wool is so soft! A very good choice, love.”
Aziraphale ran his fingers across the woven wool with delicate care, almost like it was one of his precious ancient scrolls. Slowly he brought it up to his face, pressing the softness to his lips and humming in pleasure. Crowley’s breath hitched, his soul nearly undone by the simple, rapturous look on his angel’s face. “Glad you like it, angel.”
“I’m sure I’d like anything you pick out.” Did Aziraphale know what saying those kinds of things did to him? He must have, he said them so often it had to be on purpose. But usually, when the angel was teasing him he would get that look, so maybe he didn’t. It seemed impossible but maybe Aziraphale really did just… love Crowley like that.
“Can we go now?” Lottie whined while tugging on Crowley’s sleeve. “I’m hungry.”
“Nibbles?” Bella asked, wide-eyed and eager as Aziraphale picked her up and placed her in the buggy seat. Crowley had taught her that one, mostly because he knew it would make Aziraphale laugh.
“Why not? I’m sure we can find somewhere to grab a bite before heading him, right Crowley?” Of course they could. They had the near-limitless power of Heaven and Hell at their disposal, finding a place to eat was extraordinarily simple. Finding somewhere that served something both girls would eat, that would meet up the Aziraphale’s expectations, and had parking enough for the Bently was another matter entirely. But things had been going well so far, and Crowley was feeling quite optimistic for once, so he nodded and led them towards the check-out. Maybe it was possible to have a nice, relaxed afternoon with their little extended family, without any disasters.
Three days later Newt called to say they were ready for the girls to come back home, and if Crowley could drive them over that would be much appreciated. Crowley thought about refusing to make the drive, just to live up to his demonic nature, but in the end couldn’t resist going to give his present to Alfred in person. So he and Aziraphale packed up Bella and Lottie with their gifts and made the few-hours journey to Tadfield. Of course it took much longer than usual, since Crowley had to go the speed limit, but at the very least he was able to miracle to traffic to stay clear.
“Ok now girls, you must try and stay quiet in case your brother is sleeping,” Aziraphale instructed as Crowley parked. “I know you’ve missed your mummy and daddy, and that you’re very excited, but it is very rude to wake a baby from their nap.”
“Yes Uncle Azi,” they both said, practically vibrating with excitement. They were both wearing their new shirts, and Aziraphale had braided their hair in an effort to make things as easy as possible on the new parents. Crowley expected that at least one of them would forget their instructions the second they all got inside, but he was ready to expend a small miracle to make sure Alfred stayed calm and not screaming through their visit.
“OK, let's go, angel,” he said. He saw Anathema waiting at the bay window, waving happily with a small bundle in her arms. Newton was already at the front door kneeling down and opening his arms for when his daughters inevitably rushed him. Crowley watched with a small smile, especially when Lottie began to loudly explain their new outfits and Bella shushed her.
“Isn’t that just lovely,” Aziraphale sighed, setting the seats to rights and offering to take one of the bags Crowley was holding. “I know they love us, but there’s something special about the bond between parent and child, isn’t there?”
“I know lots of people who’d disagree with you there angel,” Crowley remarked, hefting the remaining bag over his shoulder. Aziraphale very nearly began to whine. “Oh hush, I know what you mean.”
Aziraphale harrumphed and gave Crowley a scolding look. That was a common occurrence in their household though, so it barely phased the demon as he walked towards the open door. Newt was braced against the doorframe, making a valiant effort to listen to both girls as they simultaneously chattered at him. He looked ecstatic all the same, and Crowley’s stomach did a mild, swooping dive when realized that in a few years he might be in the same position. The last thing he needed right now was to get all overemotional, so he looked away, instead focusing on sliding through the doorway without getting knocked over himself.
“Hello Crowley, Aziraphale!” Anathema greeted eagerly. She was wearing one of the long flowy dresses she’d favoured during her pregnancy and looked absolutely radiant despite the fact she had literally pushed a living being out of her body not even a week prior. “Thank you again for looking after the girls for us, you have no idea how much we appreciate it.”
“No worries, my dear. The girls have been a delight. Isn’t that right Crowley?” Aziraphale said from over his left shoulder. Crowley was too busy staring at the bundle of blankets in her arms. He’d reacted the same when Lottie, then Bella were born, so Anathema wasn’t surprised.
“Why don’t you come inside for some tea, and meet the little man. You’re very lucky, he’s just woken up from a nap.” She gestured for them to drop the bags in the hallway and follow her inside to the living room, where there was already a pot of tea, steaming and ready, sitting on tea-cozy.
“Witches,” Crowley grumbled quietly, but Anathema just laughed. Behind them, the front door closed and the house was filled with the ruckus of Newt trying to get the kid’s shoes off before they ran into the house and tracked mud all over the carpets. He decided to take up residence in the wingback armchair by the fire that he always sat in when they visited, closest to the couch where Anathema had set down with the baby. The angle made it so he could see the barest wisp of dark hair peeking out of the blankets.
“Alright, here you go,” Anathema said suddenly, shifting over so she could pass him the baby. Crowley’s eyes went with shock, though he still held out his arms and took the boy from his mother with practised ease. "Oh don’t look like that, I know you’re dying to hold him.”
“Thanks,” he breathed, getting a good look at the little blob of pink flesh and linen. Alfred had his dad’s nose and his mom’s eyes, along with a startling shock of thick dark hair. Both Device-Pulcifer girls had been born with little more than peach fuzz, but he knew human babies came in all shapes and sizes. Aziraphale lingered over his shoulder still, making sweet cooing and awing noises.
“He’s perfect, Anathema,” Crowley said in an awed voice. “Shame about him getting Newton’s nose, but I’m sure it won’t do him much harm.”
“Ha-ha,” Newt groaned from the hallway. “Didn’t you say my nose suited Lottie when she was born? I seem to remember something like that at least.”
“I said nothing of the sort.” Aziraphale poked him lightly in the side. “Fine, his nose is… adequate. Lots of hair.”
“Yes, it’s actually quite shocking!” The angel sat on the arm of the chair and petted a hand against the baby’s head. “I’d forgotten how soft newborn hair is.”
“He’s a good sleeper too, only wakes us up every two or so hours,” Anathema said proudly. She procured a bottle from one of the side tables and held it out. “I was going to feed him, would you mind?”
“No problem.” In fact, Crowley was more than happy to spend as much time as possible holding the kid, though if he didn’t give Aziraphale a turn in a few minutes the angel might start complaining. Anathema nodded and passed over the bottle before standing a little stiffly. With a silent snap, Aziraphale took away some of her post-birth pains, though not enough that she would notice and start to put up a fuss. Crowley noticed of course, but he didn’t say anything.
Anathema left them there to go greet her other children. The entire cottage was filled with so much love that even Crowley could feel the very edges of it against his demonic soul. The first time he’d held Charlotte when she’d been born he’d nearly passed out from how much love he felt for her. It had happened a few other times too, when Aziraphale had confessed his feelings a week after Armageddon, and when they’d bought the cottage. Bella’s birth had come as a surprise--she’d been 2 months early--and unfortunately, that time had been filled more with fear and relief than love. But now, holding this little bundle of happiness and innocence, Crowley felt overwhelmingly at peace as he watched Alfred slowly suck down the milk provided.
A small gasp made him lookup. Aziraphale was staring at him and the baby with something akin to wonder and Crowley realized a large amount of the love he was feeling was radiating from his angel. He smiled and even though his sunglasses were still on he knew it was too genuine and too soft for his harsh features. “Do you want to hold him?”
Aziraphale shook his head, resting a hand on Crowley’s cheek and caressing his cheekbone as if he were something precious. “Not yet, my starlight. I’m enjoying watching you with him for the moment.”
“Aziraphale!” Crowley whined, feeling that familiar embarrassed heat creeping up his neck. It was bad enough he couldn’t hide how much of a sap he was for children, did his angel had to go and point it out all the time? He ducked his head back down to focus on holding the bottle at the right angle.
“Shh, don’t get yourself all in a tizzy. I only mean that it’s nice to see you so happy,” Aziraphale said as he planted a kiss against the crown of Crowley’s head. “I think it’s rather beautiful.”
Crowley was saved the indignity of floundering through a response because Bella and Lottie were being led into the living room by Anathema and Newt. Each adult held one little girl in their arms, depositing them down by Crowley’s knees with instructions to be very, very careful. He set the finished bottle aside and tilted forward, just enough so they could see their newest sibling.
“He’s small!” Bella squealed, her little fingers curling the blankets. Alfred wiggled and freed a hand, his itty-bitty fingers curling around hers.
“Why’s he look like that?” Lottie asked. That forced a laugh out of all the adults.
“You looked like that too honey, when you first came out of mommy’s tummy,” Anathema explained. Lottie looked scandalized but quickly recovered when Alfred let out a squawk.
“Is he trying to talk?”
“No, babies can’t talk until they’re older. Remember when Bella was little?” Newt asked and Charlotte nodded, though she’d barely been three at the time. “Well, babies look a little funny for a while when they’re first born. He’ll look different in a week or two, just like what happened to you.”
“I never looked like that,” she insisted, looking very much like her mother. Newt just laughed and gave her a kiss to the head. Crowley rocked Alfred a few times, since he’d begun whimpering more and more, then decided it was time to hand him back to Anathema.
“Little guys getting fussy, you’d better take him,” he said, handing him off to his mum. “I’m sure there will be time for you to hold him later angel.”
“That’s fine dear, wouldn’t want to set him off. Oh! Why don’t we go get his gifts?”
Alfred loved his stuffy, just as Crowley knew he would. The little tyke quieted right down when it was placed next to him in his rocker. Anathema and Newt greatly enjoyed the two outfits they’d brought with them, especially when Crowley assured them they would fit for the foreseeable future. The girls excitedly showed off their shirts, and overall it was a very pleasant afternoon. They were invited to stay for dinner, which Anathema insisted they accept as thanks for babysitting. Aziraphale was delighted to find out that she’d cooked her mother’s paella, though he admonished her for going to all that extra effort just for them.
“Don’t worry about it, I needed something to do when Alfie woke me up this morning and I couldn’t get back to sleep.” They sat around the dinner table and chit-chatted idly. Crowley made a go at some of the rice, eating around the seafood bits, but in the end wasn’t able to manage more than a few spoonfuls before feeling that now-familiar rolling in his stomach. He pushed his share over the Aziraphale, who took it happily, not stopping his conversation with Newt about the human’s new job at the post office. Crowley glanced over to the witch, worried his refusal to eat might be insulting, but she just smiled and shrugged.
“I couldn’t even stand to be in the same room as fish when I was pregnant with Charlotte, don’t worry about it,” she assured him. It was the first time all day anyone had acknowledged Crowley’s… condition and he wasn’t exactly sure how he felt about it. He didn’t want to think about what it would be like when he started showing, and everyone who saw him would know.
“Ngh,” he responded, shrugging himself. It was awkward, being seen like that, but if it had to be anyone, the witch was probably the best option. “How long does this go on for again?”
“Usually just the first trimester, unless you’re really unlucky.” Which meant the was probably going to be doomed for the next however long.
“Great. Bloody, peachy,” he moaned, resting his forehead on the table. Bella giggled and tried to toss a shrimp into his hair, though she was thwarted by Anathema’s stern ‘mom glare’.
“Do you know how far along you are?” she asked, unphased by her daughter’s pouting. Crowley squirmed a little and wished Aziraphale was paying attention so he could field all these questions. But the angel continued to chatter on, oblivious to Crowley’s discomfort. And besides, Crowley thought, it was pathetic how often he was hiding behind his lover anyway. Time to buck up and not be a coward for once.
“We think two months? Maybe a little less? It’s not exactly like this sort of thing has been done before so we’re not exactly sure of… anything,” he explained, tipping his head up so his chin was resting on the table. This was nearing dangerous territory. “For all we know this whole process could take years.”
Anathema winced in sympathy. “I hope not. I have a few things leftover from Alfie, some tea and herbs and stuff that really helped me if you want them.” Human kindness always surprised him. He was struck with the urge to thank her profusely.
“Sure, can’t hurt I suppose,” he said instead, readjusting the arms of his glasses to make sure his eyes were fully covered. He didn’t truly need them here but without at least a few glasses of wine, he felt more comfortable with them on. Hell, he’d worn them for at least the first year when he and Aziraphale moved into their cottage.
“I guess it is all new territory. I could try and do some scrying, if you want, get the general lay of the next few months. I can’t make any promises though, I’m sure you know this stuff is more of an art than a science.”
Of course that caught Aziraphale’s attention. “You could really do that? I’m afraid looking into the future has never been one of my strong suits. Everything gets so awfully muddled, you think you see one thing but it turns out to be entirely something else.”
Crowley, who had been ready to insist that he did not want even more help, raised an eyebrow. “You’ve tried looking into the future? I’m a demon and even I know that’s more trouble than it’s worth.”
“Worked out well with Agnus though, didn’t it?” Newt chimed in, helping himself to seconds. “Rather well, if I remember.”
Anathema grinned smugly at the two occult beings. “Newts right, you know. Seems humans are just better at doing some things.”
“Newts right, you know,” Crowley mocked under his breath. The two humans just laughed while Aziraphale gave Crowley a swift slap to the arm.
“Crowley! Anathema has so kindly offered to look into our baby’s future and you feel the need to act like a complete child?” he seethed with all the polite rage of a true Englishman. Crowley squirmed under the angle’s unrelenting gaze. Aziraphale quickly turned to Anathema with an apologetic look. “Terribly sorry dear. We would much appreciate any help you could give us.”
Crowley glared at the table, successfully chastised. It wasn’t his fault! All these questions about something so personal were making him uncomfortable, and it wasn’t like he could just leave. Well, he could. Might do even, in a minute. Spend some time curled up in the trunk of the Bently as a snake. He always kept a few soft blankets in there, just in case.
“It’s fine,” Newt said, amused. “I remember how moody Anathema got when she was preg--” Right! That was it. A pot he hadn’t known was boiling inside him bubbled over. Crowley stood suddenly, his chair making an awful screeching sound against the wood floor.
“Gotta--gonna go outside--for some air. Y-yeah, air!” he garbled, quickly stalking towards the front hall. Aziraphale made to follow him but Crowley threw up a hand. “Don’t worry, won’t be more than a tick.”
For someone who walked like they were going to fall over at any moment, Crowley could move rather fast when he needed to. It came in handy in situations like this, or when he wanted to practise his dine and dash skills. In less than 30 seconds he was outside and popping open the trunk of the Bently. A quick glance over his shoulder confirmed no one had followed him, and then he transformed into a snake. Smaller than his regular form, but it had to be in order to fit in the boot. He slithered into the dark, warm space and flicked his tongue at the door, which promptly shut itself. There, someplace calm and quiet to cool off (metaphorically speaking, it was warm in the trunk). He’d just stay for a few minutes, not long enough cause too much of a stir. Then he’d go back and finish dinner like nothing was wrong. Because nothing was wrong. He was just overthinking and needed to spend some time not doing that. Only a few minutes, fifteen at the most. Then he'd go back.

If you would like added to the tag list let me know
They pull up to a tall glass building and pull into the parking garage. “Where are we?” Aria questions taking her helmet off. Leo smirks “come on, I’ll show you.” He uses a key card to access a private elevator, they walk in and he pushes the P on the panel. Aria stands straightforward, trying to hold back a smile, but her nervous jitter making her legs shift back and forth gave her away. “Someone’s a little anxious.” He chuckled. The door dinged and opened up to a small entry way he pulled out his keys and opened the door.
Aria gasped at the space in front of her. The room was made up mostly of large windows with an amazing view of the city, what walls there were was covered in cream paint with blue accents. 2 large plush couches sat in the middle of the floor in front of a large flat screen T.v. A fire place in between a dining room, a large kitchen with huge stove. Large glass doors lead out to a beautiful large patio, complete with a hot tub and lounge chairs. Aria took it all in, it was the most beautiful place she had ever seen aside from the palace. There was something about it. It was light and open, the view alone was breathtaking. It felt free, the palace felt cold and stuffy.
she could see herself in a place like this. Ultimately she wanted a house with land, and children running around, but for now this was the kind of place she felt would fit who she was. “Whats that lead to?” She pointed at the spiral stair case, biting on her lower lip. “Go ahead.” He nods his head forward. Aria climbs the stair case to a large bedroom. A California king bed sat in the center of the room against one of the 3 solid walls, the bed faced a row of floor to ceiling windows. “What do you think?” Leo asked, breaking her gaze. “I think this is probably the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen. Where are we?” Aria praised. Leo grinned “This is my home, this is where I have lived the past year. ” “You live here? For a year? How did we not run into each other?” Aria wondered. “Well, I travele most of it on the motor cross circuit. When I was here, I didn’t really go out much.” He sat down on the bed.
She turned towards the window gazing out, a sly smirk spread across her lips. “You know, I always wondered if people could see someone having sex in rooms with windows like this.” She said seductively. Leo arches his eye brow. “Like if I were to take my shirt off, right now, could someone be watching me?” She cooed as she removed her shirt. Damn, there was that black lace bra she made him turn away from. Leo thought to himself “I. I say its a good chance.” Leo stuttered. She starts unbuttoning and unzipping her jeans and pulls them down. “Or if I do this.” And there was the matching thong. Leos growth pushing against his pants. His eyes fixated on her every move. She crooks her finger in a come hither motion. Leo feels like he is being pulled by a string. His lips crash on her as his hands caress her body. She pulls off his shirt and moves her hands down to his belt as she makes short work of his pants. Leo kicks them off Aria yanks down his boxers allowing his hard dick to spring up. She looks up at him, her big brown eyes locked on his piercing blues. “Or if I do this.” She runs her tongue around, down and his shaft, a drop of moisture escapes his head. Her tongue flicks the tip tasting his saltly sweet pre cum. She keeps her eyes lock on his as she takes his length in her moutb bobbing her head up and down.
He grabs her head and guides it. A low gutteral growl bubbles from his chest. “Oh fuck baby, your mouth feels amazing around my cock.” He moans. She takes him close to the edge, his legs start to shake as she releases his dick with a poping sound. Leos eyes fly open. She stands up biting her bottom lip. “Oh, you little tease. You’ve been a bad girl.” Leo pulls her close, in one swift motion his hand pops off her bra and yanks her panties down her legs. He kicks her legs apart as he drops down to the floor, his lip cup her clit as he licked and sucked lightly. “Oh, fuck.” Her leg started to come out from under her. She steadied herself on his toned shoulders. He slid two fingers into her wet sex. Pumping them in and out as his tongue continued teasing her sensitive bud. “Oh god, mmm.” She moaned as she felt her body start to shake. She was close and he knew it too. He pulled his fingers out of her throbbing sex, and pulled his mouth away. She whined at the loss of friction.
“You remember what happens to bad girls right?” Leos voice low and sexy. She bit her bottom lip and nodded her head. He looks at her his gaze hungry and primal. He flips her around pushing her breast up against the window, her body shivered against the cold glass. “You think there’s people watching? Well Lets give them a show then.” He breathes into her ear as he pushes his body against hers kissing the back of her neck. He lines his rock hard cock against her dripping wet sex before thrusting deep into her core. “Oh oh fuck, Leo, oh my god. She was close before, it didn’t take much for her to come undone. He felt her walls tighten around him as she gave into an orgasm.
He turns her around lifting her up against the glass again, he lowered her down onto his cock as he thrust into her slowly. She wraps her arms around his neck as she rotates her hips. His thrust pick up as she matches his rhythm. His length stroking her in just the right spot. The heat was reaching its boiling point, she felt her body tingle "oh, oh fuck, oh fuck Leo oh oh oh, Leo.” She screamed out in pleasure “fuck Aria, cum with me baby. Her walls tightened as her juices squirt out around him, his cock convulses as it coats her walls with ropes of his velvety cum. Her hands continue clinging to his shoulders.
Her walks her over to the bed and lays her down. Kissing her passionately stroking through her convulsions. Once her body relaxed, he pulled out of her slowly. He laid next to her, leaning over to kiss her sweetly on her lips then laying on his back. Aria turns her body to him, propping herself up on her other arm she traces circles on his chest. "Leo.? She whispers softly. "Mmm yes beautiful.” He murmered. “I love you.” He sits straight up on the bed looking into her eyes, looking for any sign of her being drunk and not knowing what she was saying, but there wasn’t. They were full of senserity. He had waited for so long to hear those words. “I heard what you said to Liam, the other night during your flight. Did you mean it?” She hung her head. Leo lifted her chin with his finger. “Every word of it love” he kissed her lips. “I love you, Aria Leigh Hale with all of my heart. I always have and I always will.” She places a soft kiss on his lips as they lay down, wrapped in each others arms they drift off to sleep.
******
It was time for brunch, Liam waited for Leo and Aria to come strolling in, it had become a normal occurrence for them to show up together. Enough that many of the other nobles had started whispering that the former crowned prince and Lady Aria were an item. Liam cringed at the rumors, although he seen it with his own two eyes. He should have never chosen Madeline, threats be damned. "That little floozey is making me look bad Liam, do something about it or I will.” Madeline demanded. “We have checked both Leo and Lady Arias rooms, they are not there.” Bertrand worried. “Sire the security cameras show they never came back to the hotel, they are not at Lady Arias apartment either.” Bastian informed. “No, they wouldn’t be. I know where they are. Bastian.” He motioned to him to follow. Liam got into the car. “Where to your Magesty.” Bastian asked.
Aria woke up and smiled at Leo sleeping next to her. It was so easy with him, she didn’t have to worry about making sure he was gone before morning. No sneaking around so no one would see them. He opened his eyes and yawned. “Good morning beautiful.” She giggled “I think you mean good afternoon. ” she leaned down and kisses him. “I’m starving, I know a good place around here to order food, ill put a call in.” She jumped up to grab her phone Still naked from the night. “Mmm come back to bed love and let me worship that sexy body again.” He reached his hands out for her. She placed the order and hung up. Crawling back into bed. Leo rolls over on top of her. Showering her with kisses. “That’s it, I am never letting you leave this bed. I want to spend every moment laying here with you.” “That sounds wonderful, except we will need to join the real world again at some point.” Aria giggles. Leo kisses her deeply,his hands stroke her sides. She wraps a leg around his waist as he lines his member up with her entrance when the doorbell rings. UGHHH the both moan in annoyance. “That must be the food.” Aria sits up. “Ughhh, really?” He groans. “Its ok, ill go.” She jumps up tossing Leos boxers on and his t-shirt. She grabs her hair tie from the night stand and throws her hair up. She hurries down the steps and opens the door. “Liam?” She freezes.
“We need to talk.” He walks past her into the living room. She closes the door and sits down on the couch. “You missed brunch today. Madeline is having a fit” Liam said with his back turned to her. Yes of course, we can not have poor Madeline upset now cant we.” she snapped “It’s best to keep appearances, especially since were so close to finding Tariq.” He turned around keeping his eyes on the ground. He put on his stoic demeanor he did that to burry his feelings. She knew it had to be eating him alive. He couldn’t look at her, it killed him. Wearing Leos clothes, little red marks on her neck and thighs, signs of the sex they had last night. “Im sorry Liam, I just needed to get away from her. Hana is gone, and I dont know why. ” Aria sighed. “I understand that Aria, but being a member of court means keeping up certain appearances. If you could please just attended the rest of these events while we are here.”
Leo comes down the stairs wearing a pair of pajama bottoms on and no shirt. Her scratch marks on his back and shoulders visible. “Everything ok here.” Leo questioned taking a seat next to Aria. Liam scoffed. “Once Tariq is found, a choice is going to have to be made. Its either going to be him or me, and I will not stop fighting until you tell me to stop.” Liam turned to leave. “I will see you back at the hotel.” He closed the door behind him.
“I should have known it wasn’t food, you need a key card or someone to buzz you up, Liam is the only other person who has a key card.” Leo stretched his legs out. Liams words ran through Arias head you’ll have to make a choice soon. What was she to do? She came for Liam she loved him. She did not expect Leo, and she was in love with him too. If Liam broke off his engagement to Madeline he would need they would need to marry and it would be expected to produce an heir. She wanted to be married and have children. She knew it was something Liam wanted, but did Leo? The delivery man buzzed pulling her from her thoughts. “Ill get it.” Leo jumped u.
He took the food to the kitchen making up plates for each of them. They sat in the living room to eat. “You’re very quiet, everything ok?” Leo questioned. “I guess what Liam said made me think and then about what Ellie said last night. ” “yeah I remember, seemed like it was something you didn’t want to talk about. ” he took a bite of his food. Aria took a deep breath. “No I didn’t, but there is something I need to tell you.”

A Story Worth Telling
Part 7: Stubborn Foolishness
This series takes place after the ending of TCATF in an AU where Kenna and Val are married and rule as queens of Stormholt. Michael is an OC who is a writer. He has written biographies of many of the leaders of the five kingdoms and now wants to write Kenna and Val’s story. But he must first earn their trust by getting to know them and making them feel comfortable. Thank you to @kinkykingliam for creating this awesome mood board for this series.
I’m tagging my MHTA people for this story in case you all are interested in the back story that is being discovered from reading the journal they found at Stormholt. If you’d like to be removed, just let me know. You can catch up on this series here.
Disclaimer: all characters belong to Pixelberry. Except for my OC, I claim him as my own
Taglist: @kennaxval @boneandfur @bobasheebaby @drakewalkerwhipped @femmeshep @hhiggs @lizeboredom @pb-boeboe @klaudiana-beaumontkkreal @tmarie82 @hhiggs @speedyoperarascalparty @darley1101 @blackcatkita @katurrade @lodberg @bella-ca @indiacater @hopefulmoonobject @missevabean @walkerismychoice @eileendannie @museofbooks @jared2612 @h3llostrang3r @ooo-barff-ooo @alesana45 @debramcg1106 @stopforamoment @carabeth
Michael paced back and forth in front of the queens’ chambers. It seemed they had been in there with Madeline for hours, but in reality it had only been about 20 minutes. He stopped and leaned against the wall next to the door, his gaze drifting out the window across the way. Poor Kenna had been sick for days. She could barely keep any food down. And for the past 3 days she had not left her chambers the entire day. Michael and Val had both wanted to summon the royal healer last week, but Kenna wouldn’t hear it. “I’m sure I’ll feel better tomorrow,” she would say weakly. But tomorrow was never any better. In fact, it was always worse. Kenna was turning into a ghost of her former self, her slight frame appeared to be wasting away.
Two days ago, Val had knocked on Michael’s door before dawn. He had been sleeping apart from the queens at Kenna’s insistence, she said she did not want to make them ill. She tried to have Val join him, but she of course wouldn’t have it. “If I fall ill, so be it,” she said softly as she wiped Kenna’s brow with a damp cloth. “I will not leave you alone in your suffering.” Michael opened the door to a sight he hadn’t seen before. Val was distraught, tears streaming down her face, a lost look in her eye. Michael wrapped her in his arms and pulled her into his room, closing the door behind her. He steadied her body as it shook from her sobs, gently stroking the back of her head. “Shhhh, my love,” he said quietly. “It’s going to be all right.”
Val pulled out of his embrace and glared at him. “How can you be so sure? I’ve never seen her like this. She looks so frail. So pale and weak. Like a shell of her former self.” Michael nodded. “You’re right. But what can we do about it? She refuses to see the healer.” Val sighed shakily, a determined look on her face. “I think I know someone who might be able to help her,” she said. “And I believe Kenna would agree to see her. I must dispatch a messenger to the Foundry. Hopefully Whitlock will fly Madeline here on his airship to tend to Kenna.”
“Is that really necessary? Don’t we have healers here at Stormholt?” Val nodded. “Yes of course we do. But they don’t do us any good if Kenna refuses to see them. Madeline is a friend. She helped save Dom from Hex’s clutches and practically ran the infirmary here during the final battle with Azura. Kenna trusts her. She will allow her to examine her, I know it.” Val left and went to the other side of the castle to make arrangements.
Jackson insisted on traveling to the Foundry himself. He rode all day, resting his horse only when necessary. The labyrinth surrounding the Foundry was now simply a unique way to enter the city. Whitlock had decided it was unnecessary and unwise to keep the technocrats isolated from the rest of the world. So Jackson was ushered into the city rather quickly and was standing before Whitlock before the sun went down. He sprung into action immediately, readying the airship and summoning Madeline. “We will take off at first light,” he said. They were back by mid afternoon the following day.
Kenna had actually seemed in better spirits that morning. Michael and Val had enjoyed their breakfast of oatmeal and fruit in bed with her. She actually had a bit of an appetite for the first time in days and ate a little. But it didn’t last long. Soon Kenna’s head was in her wash basin, throwing up her breakfast as Val held back her hair. Michael stood at the foot of the bed, unsure of what to do. He answered the knock at the door. It was Jackson and Madeline. “A pleasure to meet you. You must be Mad-“ Michael extended a hand to Madeline, but she cut him off. She entered the room, pushing him out into the hallway. “There will be plenty of time for pleasantries later. Right now I have work to do.” She slammed the door in his face. Michael turned to Jackson, who shrugged. “She’s good at what she does. Let her work. How is Kenna?” Michael sighed as he rubbed his eyes. “It seemed she was doing better this morning, however she just lost her breakfast.” Jackson frowned. “There has to be some explanation. Kenna is a tough woman. It takes a lot to bring her down.” Michael agreed.
Jackson left to see if Whitlock needed assistance with the airship and Michael began pacing. Several times he pressed his ear to the door to see if he could hear anything. But the room was quiet. What if something was seriously wrong with Queen Kenna? How could he live without one of his queens?
**********************************************
“Madeline, I’m sorry I wasn’t expecting guests,” Kenna said as she shot Val a dirty look. “If I’d known you were coming I would’ve made myself presentable. Madeline sat on the edge of the bed next to Kenna. “Hush you foolish girl,” she said as she pressed the back of her hand to Kenna’s forehead. It was damp with a cool sweat. “No fever, that’s a good sign,” she said as she pulled out her medical kit and spread it on the bed in front of her. Val could see the frustration growing on her wife’s face. “Madeline, while I am delighted to see you, I think you’ll find that this visit was unnecessary,” she said softly. Madeline snapped her head up to meet Kenna’s eyes. “Unnecessary? Have you seen yourself lately? What’s unnecessary is for a woman in your condition to suffer so. There are remedies to ease the sickness.” Kenna’s eyes widened as a confused look crossed over Val’s face. “I don’t understand,” she said, shaking her head. She sat next to Kenna on the bed, grasping her hand. “All this time you’ve known what’s wrong and you’ve said nothing? I’ve been beside myself with worry.”
Kenna sighed and smiled at Val. She stroked her cheek softly. “I am so sorry my love,” she said softly. “I can’t say for certain what’s wrong with me, but I have an idea. And I thought it would pass. But I was wrong.” Val kissed Kenna gently, the happiness that her wife was not seriously ill overcoming her anger. “So if you’re not sick, then what is going on with you? Obviously you’re not normal.” Kenna and Madeline exchanged a look. Madeline smiled brightly. “I think it’s pretty obvious. The Queens of Stormholt are going to have a baby.” Val’s mouth dropped open. She sat in stunned silence as Madeline continued talking to Kenna. “I’m going to leave these herbs here with you,” she said as she set several bottles on the nightstand. “These will help with the nausea immensely, these you should take each morning. They will provide vital nutrients to the baby.” She rambled on as Kenna glanced at Val, who was still shocked.
“My love, are you ok?” Val snapped her head up to meet her wife’s gaze. Her eyes traveled down to Kenna’s midsection, a look of wonder overtaking her face. She placed her hand on her wife’s stomach as she smiled widely. “You’re going to be a mom,” she said softly, almost a whisper. Kenna smiled and covered Val’s hand with hers, pressing both into her stomach. “No Val, we are going to be moms,” she said happily. “And Michael is going to be a dad.” Val jumped up suddenly at the mention of Michael. “Oh I must tell him. He is beside himself with worry,” she said as she hurried to the door.
She stopped and turned to face Kenna. “I’m sorry. I should let you tell him. It’s your big news to share, not mine.” Kenna shook her head. “It’s our news, my love. I think it’s a great idea for you to tell him.” Madeline turned to face Val. “Yes, go tell him. I need to examine Kenna and administer a treatment for her nausea. I will come get you when we are finished.” Val and Kenna smiled at each other. “Are you sure, my love?” Val asked as she walked back to Kenna’s side. She smiled and nodded and Val kissed her gently on the top of her head. “I love you so much,” Val said as she wrapped her arms around Kenna tightly. Madeline cleared her throat and tapped her foot impatiently. Val jumped up and headed for the door. “Sorry. I’ll be right outside if you need me.”
********************************************
Michael snapped out of his thoughts as the door opened and Val walked out with a big smile on her face. Relief swept over him, he could tell by the look on her face that everything was fine. He wrapped her in a hug and they held each other in silence for a few moments. Val backed up to meet his eyes. “Aren’t you going to ask about Kenna?” Michael shook his head. “I can tell by the look on your face that everything is fine. Although I am a bit curious.” Val smiled widely and took both his hands in hers. “It is more than fine. It’s absolutely wonderful.” Michael smiled at her. “Well don’t keep me in suspense, woman! Tell me what’s going on.” Val’s eyes sparkled as they met his and her smile widened. “Kenna is pregnant, Michael. We are going to have a baby!” Michael’s mouth dropped open and his arms fell to his sides. “P-pregnant,” he stammered, looking past Val to the window again. She watched him eagerly as he began to process the news. His lips curled into a slight grin as he murmured, “Pregnant.” He looked at Val expectantly, tears stinging the corners of his eyes. “I’m going to be a dad,” he choked out, overcome with emotion as the tears overflowed.
Val wrapped her arms around him tightly as he sobbed tears of joy. She looked up into his eyes and wiped away the tears from his cheeks. “You will be a wonderful father Michael,” she said softly. He smiled at her. “And you will be a wonderful mother, my dear Val.” They held each other close for a long while, each of them lost in their own thoughts. Until the door opened behind them and Madeline strolled out. She smiled at Michael. “Congratulations, dad,” she said and Michael swept her into a hug. “Thank you so much Madeline. For everything.”
“No thanks is necessary my dear,” she said as she patted him on the cheek. “Kenna will be just fine. I gave her some herbs to help with the nausea, which should pass in time.” She looked back and forth between the two of them. “I have told her she needs to summon a midwife, just to be sure all is well.” Val’s smile faded. “But I thought you said she was fine.” Madeline smiled warmly. “She is fine my dear. However, a midwife has more expertise in these matters and will be able to ensure Kenna and the baby stay strong and healthy.” She took a step forward and waved a finger in each of their faces. “Now you two must put your foot down. Kenna is stubborn. She must see a midwife before the end of the week. Do not allow her to put it off any longer.” Michael shrugged and glanced at Val who nodded. “Of course. I will summon a midwife to the castle myself if necessary.” Madeline smiled at her. “Good. Now get in there,” she said, gesturing to the door of the chambers. “She wants to see both of you.”
Michael practically ran to the door, entering the room with excitement. He stopped short as he caught sight of Kenna, sitting up in bed. She looked much better, the color was back in her face. In fact, she appeared to be glowing. Michael’s mouth hung open as he stared at her, mesmerized by her beauty. Kenna smiled at him when their eyes met and he dropped to his knees beside the bed, taking her hands in his. “My queen, you are absolutely radiant,” he said as he brought her hands to his lips. He stood up and sat on the edge of the bed next to her. He cupped her cheek as his love for her shone bright in his eyes. “You have never looked so beautiful.” He placed a hand gently on her stomach and leaned in to kiss her.
Val walked around and sat on the other side of Kenna. “I am so happy you are ok. I was so afraid you were sick.” Michael gave Kenna a stern look. “Yes. This has been the longest week of my life. Please, don’t do this again my queen. Next time I will ignore your wishes and summon the royal healer.” Kenna gave him a sheepish grin. “You’re right, and I apologize to both of you. I’m so sorry my stubbornness caused so much worry.” She wrapped an arm around each of them, pulling them close, each of their heads resting on a shoulder. Michael locked hands with Val and they rested their joined hands on Kenna’s midsection. She smiled. “We are going to be parents,” she said softly.

Soulmates Part 9
Masterlist!
At 8:15 am, Kelsey and Rafael walked hand in hand into the 16th precinct. The couple were in complete bliss with each other they couldn't wipe their corny smiles off their faces.
When they reached the special victims unit, they pecked each other's lips. "see you later, dulce chica. If you're around later, wanna grab lunch?" "Sounds good handsome." Rafael smirked and pulled Kelsey into a kiss. "go get some work done, detective." Rafael walked into Cragen's office and shut the door behind him. When Kelsey got to her desk, she saw Elliot in her chair looking at his case files. "what are you doing to my desk." Elliot laughed and put his feet on the desk. "Captain has done a complete shuffle; your desk is Amaro's old one." Kelsey made her way over to her new desk and sat down. Elliot turned to kelsey.
"How're things with loverboy" he quizzed "It's really good.....almost too good. Andrew knows about the bonding, Which means it's only a matter of time until my family find out and destroy everything." Eliott jaw clenched up, and he closed his eyes to steady his anger " you know I have girls about your age, and it kills me to see a family destroy one of their own for the sake of their twisted, sick games. Before you started, we googled you as nick recognised you. It turns out you were on the cover for some magazine that his wife reads. We thought bratty rich kid has come to join the squad. On your first day, you came in for that whole hour and then you were bonded and was rushed to hospital. We got on with the day as we thought you would have a line of people trying to help you while you threw money at the problem, and then Declan showed up. He told us you didn't have it good, and when you came to the city, you felt free from your family and expectations, but we thought you had played him and were fabricating the truth".
Kelsey's silent tears were flowing at this point uncontrollably. Elliot moved round to her desk and rubbed her back. "Then Andrew showed and tried to kidnap you, you were crying, and you didn't even know that you were. The look of terror in your eyes that you had I will never forget. You were trying to mould yourself to Barba. Every part of your body was shaking with fear for the man in front trying to kidnap you down the aisle. The whole squad saw how much Murphy left out, how your life hasn't been glitz and glamour at all. We all saw our kids, sisters and nieces in you, Hardy." Kelsey was still silently crying, focusing on Eliott rubbing her back to calm her down. "What I'm trying to say is that this squad might not be a conventional family, but you're one of us and look after and love our own."
"Thank you, Elliot. I appreciate that. Thank you for giving me a chance and helping me. I didn't realise how much I needed to hear that." Elliot smiled and walked back to his desk "oh, and by the way, get some work done; otherwise, dad will be pissed." Kelsey laughed and dug out Katie's file to work on it. Kelsey pulled Katie's picture out of the file and taped it to her laptop screen. Just as she did this, Sonny was at the desk opposite her" Hey doll, Warner wants us about the Junave case." kelsey grabbed her bag and coat ", let us go, I'll drive."
"I ran the DNA on Katie's fetus, and we have a match, Tommy Sullivan fathered Katie's baby". Carisi went pale and snatched the file from the doctor, and walked out of the room. "Is he ok?" the doctor asked. "I'm sorry, Melinda, I'm not sure what happened, but I will find out ." Kelsey rushed out of the room to catch up with her partner. "What the hell was that about? Poor woman has done nothing wrong, and it looked like you were going to lunge at her." Carisi gripped the steering wheel so tight his knuckles were white. "Let us go and update the captain. I wanna nail this bastard."
When Kelsey and Sonny returned to the office, Cragen and Rafael stood waiting for them with the warrant in Cragen's hands for property, computers and financials. Sonny went to grab the warrants out of the captain's hand, and the captain shook his head " Benson, my office." the older woman walked in and shut the office door. "Benson, go with Hardy to carry out the search warrant on Tommy Sullivan, Carisi's brother in law."
*Later that day*
Kelsey and Olivia carried out the search warrant and found overwhelming evidence. They went over to 1 Hogan place and presented it to Rafael. Rafael agreed and got judge Barth to sign an arrest warrant. "Go pick Sullivan up, detectives. I need it all by the book," Rafael commanded. Both women nod and grab their coats, but before they left, Rafael grabbed Kelsey by the waist, pulled her into him and kissed her forehead "by the book, baby."
Olivia and Kelsey were questioning Tommy. He realised he was screwed that everyone knew he raped Katie. He felt anger towards the detectives, They were hanging him out to dry, and he was family. "Why did you do it, Tommy? You have Bella Carisi, a loving wife, an amazing family and friends and a good job. Why go out and rape a disabled girl, huh?" Kelsey asked. Somewhat smugly, Tommy responded, "I want a lawyer" both women left the room.
Rafael called legal aid for Tommy to get a lawyer; an hour later, a lawyer was in the room with Tommy. "Barba Can I see you for a moment" Rafael turned to see the Italian detective standing in the doorway. "Carisi, I know he is your family but think of Katie and her family, Carisi." Sonny scoffed at the lawyer, "that's exactly what I'm doing. If you plead him out, don't give him less than double digits, He raped Katie Junave, destroyed her family and caused her to commit suicide. Please, Barba, play hardball."
Two hours later, Tommy is taken to central booking awaiting his sentence hearing for the rape of Katie Junave. Rafael walked into the bullpen at 9 pm to the whole squad. He sat down next to Kelsey and removed his tie, and sighed. "I pled him out he will serve a 17-year sentence. He is in central booking now and is awaiting his hearing." The lawyer turned to sonny, "go home, Carisi, go be with your sister and family." Rafael turned and rested his forehead against Kelsey's shoulder. "Go get your bag and coat, baby. We are going out for food. The last thing we had to eat was the yoghurt and fruit we had at 7 am this morning.
Kelsey and Rafael walked out of the 16th precinct hand in hand. Kelsey turned to Rafael. "Can we go to your apartment tonight, order off a food app and cuddle. It's been a long and stressful day for both of us, and I want to be with you tonight and not have to worry about other people." Rafael smiled pulled her to him "sounds good, baby."
After their dinner, the couple were cuddled up on the couch with each other. "Baby, I think we need to see a specialist about the bond. We are both unsure of how the bond connects and changes us; we need to know what, and we need to prepare for this to happen." Kelsey nodded. "Rafe, I agree. We need to know what we are dealing with, darling." the couple stayed cuddled up with each other for a while longer until they went to bed.

It’s All Art ~ 82
Dinner conversation turned to what movies to watch. The shear number of choices the kids threw out made the adults’ heads spin. Oscar whistled loudly, which got their attention. “After dinner, you three go pick out what you want to see. We’ll pick out the second movie.”
Bella sneered, “Don’t pick anything boring.”
Oscar sneered back, “You either.”
Toni went wide eyed, “You could pick Ex Machina.”
“No, I couldn’t.” Oscar shook his head at the inappropriate choice.
“We’ve seen it.”
Charlotte rolled her eyes, “Of course you have.”
Nate nodded, “Mom watched so many of your movies that dad was teasing her about having a crush. It all made sense when you got here.”
Toni smiled, “She was doing research.”
Oscar faked a cough, “Stalker.”
The kids went back to trying to decide what movie to pick. When they finished eating they ran off to make their final choice. Oscar and Charlotte cleaned up from dinner and joined the kids on the couch. He picked up the DVD box, “Xanadu?”
Charlotte’s eyes grew wide, “Oh my god, I haven’t seen this in forever!”
Oscar took the box, “Never heard of this.” The girls sat on either side of Oscar and after sliding in the DVD Nate sat on the far side of Charlotte. The movie started with dancers outlined in neon color peeling away from their images on a wall. Oscar laughed, “Doesn’t get more eighties than this.” Only he was very wrong. There was music and dancing and roller skating and music while dancing on roller skates. The best thing was that during the musical number everyone around him would sing along. This was obviously a movie they’d watched numerous times. They all had their parts and pointed to whomever was to sing the next part. As cheesy as the movie was, he couldn’t help love that he’d been invited in to their production.
Charlotte sent the triplets to change into pajamas while she and Oscar made popcorn. In the kitchen she put her arms around him and kissed him, “Sorry, I forgot how dreadful the movie was.”
Oscar laughed, “I’ve never seen anything more 1980s. Made a little more sense when I found out they were daughters of Zeus.” He kissed her, “I love being part of your family. Watching you four was worth the pain.”
She laughed loudly, “I’ll let you pick the next movie.”
Nate was the only one who didn’t make it through the next movie. He was curled on his side tucked under Charlotte’s arm. An arm she could no longer feel, so Oscar carried him to bed. Charlotte shook out her arm and herded the twins to their room. She tucked them in and promised that Oscar would come and kiss them goodnight. They passed each other in the hallway on their way to the other kids’ room.
Charlotte put the popcorn bowl and glasses in the kitchen and headed to the bedroom. She was sitting on the edge of the bed when Oscar came in, “I’m tired.”
“Me too.” He pulled his t-shirt off and handed it to her.
Charlotte took off her shirt and bra before sliding into what smelled like him. She scurried under the sheets with a sigh, “This feels good.”
Oscar didn’t say anything until he’d stripped down to his boxers, joined her under the sheets, and pulled her body tight to his, “This does too.”
“Yes, it does.”
He lifter her chin to bring her mouth the his and enjoyed a slow lazy kiss. He could feel relaxation taking over. They drifted apart and Charlotte laid her head on his shoulder. He stretched out his back to get comfortable and remembered the picture. “Where’s you’re phone?” He spotted it on the nightstand, “Can you hand it to me?”
“Sure.” She watched him scrolling through her Instagram, “What are you looking for?”
He stopped and looked at her, “That picture Mike took of us with my family. I was thinking of that today while we were all out. There it is.” He stopped on the shot of all of them in the kitchen with her holding Mateo. His stomach did a little flip and he smiled. She looked good with a baby. He definitely wanted that. “How do I post a picture?”
“Are you opening your own account?” She already knew the answer and hit the plus sign at the bottom of the app.
“God, no.” He went into her gallery and found the picture of them on the private island. He zoomed in on the one of them looking at the camera while laying in the hammock. “Me and my Greek goddess. #muse #yesitsmepostingonheraccount #perfectday #love”
“Sweet.” She kissed him gently. “They’ll analyze how I’ve changed you.”
“Have you ever.” He laughed. “Starting when I was coming up the elevator with Amy to your studio. I’d had just enough bad dates to decide to focus on work for awhile. I didn’t believe in love at first sight. And was doing a favor for a friend. As soon as I saw you I forgot about the favor, I thought about you every day, and no one’s ever knocked me on my ass the way you did.” He kissed her and made himself pull away, “I never thought that I could love someone as much as I love you or not want to be away from or believed there was someone I was supposed to be with. Forever. So yes, you’ve changed me.” They were silent for long moments. “And I couldn’t imagine someone looking at me the way you are right now. I love you.”
“I love you too.” She moved her hands to his face and kissed him. “That was amazingly romantic.” She unsuccessfully tried to stop a smile, “I was talking about you using social media.”
They started laughing. Oscar tickled her, “You’ll never get me to join anything.”
Through her laughter she mumbled, “Except me.”
Her words stopped him, “Literally and figuratively.”
~*~*~
In the morning they awakened to the smell of coffee. Charlotte wondered which kid was up. She left him to wake up slowly and headed into the kitchen. She was surprised to see her parents. “Wow, you all came back early. I didn’t expect you for hours.”
Her mom kissed her cheek, “We had a lazy breakfast in bed then headed back.”
“Good day?”
“Wonderful.”
Oscar and the triplets joined them on the patio for breakfast. Oscar and Charlotte planned to spend a few hours relaxing at the poor before packing. They’d have an early dinner with the family before heading to airport and back to London. They found lounge chairs where they could see the sea and the pool was only a few steps away. Charlotte pulled her cover-up off and laid down. Oscar pulled his sunglasses down, “The kill me bikini.” She smiled and closed her eyes.
Drinks were delivered before the old one grew warm. When they grew warm they headed to the pool to hang on the infinity edge and watch the waves. They talked, laughed, and held hands between the loungers. Both were ready to go back to London. He had filming and she had an exhibit to get ready for. Still, they knew this would be the last calm for who knew how long. They stayed as long as they dared before dressing and gathering their things.
Heading to the bar to pay their bill they were met by a pair of women. Charlotte would guess them in their early twenties. She’d seen them a few times at the resort. They looked nervous. Charlotte smiled. They were here for Oscar.
He finished signing the bill and turned to where they stood, “Hi, ladies. Beautiful day.”
“Hasn’t been a bad day since we’ve been here. Last night was great.” The brunette stuttered, “I mean, you were great last night.” She glanced at Charlotte and blushed.
Charlotte laughed and Oscar shook his head, “Thank you.” He put his arm around Charlotte and went to take a step.
The other girl spoke up quickly, “Could we get a picture with you before you go? We’re leaving in the morning.”
“Sure.”
Charlotte noticed the girl’s digital camera, “Nice camera.”
The girl held it up, “Thank you. It does a lot more than I know what to do with.”
“You’ll learn.” Then she went on a hunch, “Are you two the ones who’ve been posting pictures to Instagram?” Their wide eyes and dead silence gave them away. Charlotte chuckled, “Are there more?”
The one holding the camera answered, “Umm.”
Her friend took over, “We’re not going to sell them or anything. We both are huge fans. There’s not tons like we’re stalkers or anything.” She looked at Oscar, “We didn’t go looking for you, but if you were there.”
“Can I have them?” The girls and Oscar looked at her. “Let me borrow your memory card. I won’t erase anything. Just run to the villa and copy them. You can talk to him while I’m gone.”
Oscar held up his hands and laughed, “Are you seriously bartering time with me for some pictures of us on vacation?”
Charlotte gasped, “Oh my god! That’s a horrible thing to do.”
“Yes, it is. Not a good precedent.”
She cringed, “I’m sorry. I didn’t think.”
He rolled his eyes, shaking his head, before he looked at the girl with the camera. “Give her the card. I’ll buy you drinks while she’s gone. Promise me you’ll tell no one. Ever.”
Both girls made a cross over their hearts.
Charlotte jumped a little, “I love you.”
“I love you too, crazy person.”
Charlotte was back in under ten minutes. “Thank you. I just downloaded. We’ll look at them on the plane.” She handed the card back and slid her arm around Oscar’s waist. “Say goodbye to your new friends. Packing awaits.”
“Thank you for the conversation, ladies. Enjoy the last of your vacation.”
As soon as they were away from everyone Charlotte squeezed his side, “I’m so so sorry. I didn’t even think that could have other fans taking pictures and offering them up for some time. Such a bad precedent. I won’t do that again.”
Oscar kissed her head, “It’s ok. They were nice. Good ego stroking.”
“We’ve been so relaxed and no fans. I wasn’t thinking about anything other than good pictures of me and my boyfriend.”
“Charlotte, seriously, baby, it’s fine. It is just you and your boyfriend.” He liked being himself and not thinking about celebrity. He was glad she could forget about that too. Inside their villa he pulled her close and kissed her, “Just you and me.”
It didn’t take long to pack. Neither were big on organization when heading back. Shove it in the suitcase and move on. They left their luggage by the door and went up to her parent’s for dinner. Many stories were told and lots of laughter. Her parents had plans to come up for her gallery show, but even so, goodbyes were tearful. The couple promised the triplets they’d come back and that they could come visit.
In the car Oscar wiped away Charlotte’s tears, “You alright?”
She nodded, “I miss mom and dad, but I really miss my brother and sisters. They grow and change so much each time I see them. I wish I got to grow up with them like Matt and I did.” She leaned into him.
He wrapped his arms around her, keeping her safe and warm, wishing he could ease the hurt. “The age difference makes it hard. You and Matt were grown when they were born.” He kissed her head and squeezed her tight, “But instead of you guys fighting like siblings they look up to you so much. If you were sixteen you wouldn’t have time to play with them, too busy being a teenager. Might not be often enough, but they get more of you.”
Looking up, Charlotte smiled, “Thank you.” She stretched up to kiss him, “Do you have any idea how much I love you?”
“I hate to see you hurting.” The ache in his chest was starting to let up now that a smile was replacing the tears.
“Better now.”
By the time they got to the airport he had her laughing at an email Domhnall had sent detailing the crash and burn of what had started out as a good date. It was amazing that so much could go wrong so quickly. They sat at the gate plotting ways tease him. Once seated Charlotte pulled out her laptop to look at the pictures she’d downloaded off the girls’ memory card. There were several good shots of them holding hands and kissing. Thankfully none of them having sex on the beach. She went through the shots she’d taken on Delios and the castle, asking Oscar’s opinion, and considering which she might like to include in the gallery exhibit. When they’d finished looking through the files they found a movie and relaxed for the rest of the flight.
