It's genuinely kind of impressive that they managed to set up their SA2 adaptation in a way that makes it impossible to directly adapt any of the scenes from the source material
#Stuff like Shadow's escape from Prison Island is kind of close but since Eggman isn't there it's ultimately a very different scene#I think the only scenes it would be possible to fully adapt without any large changes (such as removing characters)#Are the scene of Shadow standing on the bridge before Radical Highway and the scenes that happen in the ARK's altar room#But I doubt they'll actually do either of those#Krafter Talks

Drugs, Thugs and Pilot Kelson Hugs: Part 2
Pairing: Pilot Kelson x Reader
Warnings: Drugs, Alcohol, Swearing, Sexual Themes, Violence, Slowish Burn, I think that’s it?
Summary: Your friendship with Pilot grows steadily into something new.
- Part 1 Here -
———————————
Over the next few weeks, you saw Pilot a few times at parties and bars and general get togethers. You quickly became good friends, getting to know each other more and more each time.
You also got to know Mason’s friend, Zack, who began hanging out with your group more frequently. Zack was a good looking guy, and he was charming. He asked you out the second time you met, and you had agreed more out of boredom and curiosity than out of actually liking him, but regardless, your date went well and you started seeing each other more over the next few weeks. You weren’t official but you definitely felt that Zack was about ready to ask you to be his officially. You weren’t sure if you would say yes when he asked, he was cute but you just weren’t crazy about him yet.
One night you were invited to Jack and Cassie’s for a get-together. Carly, Porter, Pilot and Mason would also be there, so you’d assumed Zack was also invited and didn’t bother asking him yourself. Truth be told you didn’t really care whether or not he was there, but you would enjoy his company if he was.
You arrived at Jack and Cassie’s apartment, and made your rounds saying hello to everyone who was already there. Mason and Pilot had yet to arrive so you made yourself comfortable.
A few minutes later Pilot walked through the door followed by Mason, but there was no sign of Zack. You hugged Pilot and he kissed your cheek. You said hello to Mason and went about enjoying your evening, forgetting about poor Zack entirely.
Most of the night passed without incident, and you were lounging on the couch next to Pilot and Carly, talking about everything and nothing when the front door swung open.
Zack stood at the front door, face red with anger as his eyes searched the room. You sat upright and looked at him with confusion.
“You!” He pointed his finger in your direction as he closed the gap between the front door and the couch. “What the fuck are you doing here, huh?” He spat.
“Woah! Woah!” Pilot stood and held his hands up to Zack, trying to slow his barrage.
“What are you talking about Zack?” You asked, incredulously, standing from your seated position.
“I went to your apartment to surprise you, but you weren’t there. I tried to call you, but you’re ignoring me! I called Mason, who was kind enough to inform me that you’d be here, without me. An invitation would have been nice, don’t you think? Or are you trying to avoid me so… so you can snuggle up to this guy?” He yelled, clearly slightly drunk.
“Alright Zack, I think you need to calm down.” You said, walking towards him. You tried to gently push him towards the front door so you could both leave and you could walk him home, but Zack took this as you trying to force him out, and shoved you. You went stumbling backwards and Pilot caught you before you fell. This enraged Pilot, and once he was sure you were secure and standing, he launched himself at Zack, grabbing him by his T-shirt and shoving him to the ground. Pilot held him down as Zack struggled drunkenly.
“Listen here you piece of shit, if you ever lay a finger on (Y/N), or any of us ever again, I will personally shove twenty quaaludes up your ass and strap you behind the wheel of your car with your foot on the gas, got it?” Pilot spat, his hand squeezing Zack’s face, forcing him to look at him.
Zack nodded, clearly embarrassed by the situation and that no one was taking his side.
“Good.” Pilot smiled sarcastically, tapping Zack on the cheek as he got up. “Now get the fuck outta here.”
Zack sauntered off, slamming the apartment door behind him. Mason felt the need to follow Zack and ensure he got home safely, so he left shortly after.
“Are you okay?” Pilot asked, walking back over to where you sat on the arm of the sofa, still not really believing what just happened, and that you found Pilot incredibly sexy in that moment.
You nodded, “Yeah, yeah I’m fine. Thank you, for sticking up for me.” You nodded and smiled weakly. You suddenly weren’t in the mood to party. “I think I’m gonna go. I don’t feel so great all of a sudden.” You excused yourself, waving goodbye to the remaining members.
“I’ll drive you.” Pilot said, grabbing his keys. You were too shaken to argue.
The drive home was quiet, you were now contemplating whether or not to speak to Zack and to apologise for any misunderstanding, but you were aware that his behaviour, regardless of the reason, was unacceptable. You pulled up outside of your apartment block, and Pilot got out to help you out of your side.
“You ok if I walk you to your apartment? Just in case he’s waiting.” Pilot chuckled awkwardly. You smiled at him as you closed the car door.
“Thanks, good idea.” You nodded.
You made small talk as you climbed the seemingly endless flights of stairs to your apartment, eventually coming to stand outside your door.
“Well I guess he really did just go home.” You shrugged, relieved.
“Worth making sure, I guess.” He rubbed the back of his head.
“Thank you again, Pilot. For sticking up for me and for making sure I got home safe.”
“Any time.” You made eye contact for a while, mouths saying nothing but eyes saying everything. “See you around?” He eventually said, walking backwards towards the stairwell, both hands in his pockets.
You nodded, “Hope so.”
Pilot made his way down the stairwell, a smile in his face as he went. He got about halfway down, when he heard you calling him.
“Pilot, wait!” you called from the top, looking down at him. He looked up with a grin.
“I have a work event tomorrow night, I was going to take Zack, but I guess he’s out. Do you want to come as my plus one?” You asked, “as a friend, I mean.”
“Do I have to wear a suit?” He joked.
You rolled your eyes, “Just wear a nice shirt.”
“I guess I can make that happen.” He smiled.
“Ok, meet me here at 7?”
“See you then.” And he was gone.
You stood at the top of the stairwell, smiling to yourself. You were excited to see if he cleaned up well.
———————————————
The next evening came round quickly, you got ready and smoothed out the beautiful deep red dress you’d bought especially for the event that matched your lipstick. Your hair was styled elegantly and you felt… nervous.
The knock on your door alerted you that Pilot had arrived.
You had no idea why you were nervous until you opened the door, realising suddenly that it was him. You had subconsciously been worried he wouldn’t think you looked beautiful. But as soon as you opened the door, Pilot let out a deep breath and whistled lowly, taking you in. His eyes turned dark as he made eye contact with you.
“Wow.” He breathed. “You look incredible.”
You suddenly didn’t feel nervous anymore. You smiled at him. He looked so handsome, his hair was still messy but he had made an effort to smooth it down. He wore a button down white shirt, the top few buttons undone and his sleeves rolled up to his forearms.
“You clean up good yourself.” You said, grabbing your purse and locking the door behind you.
Pilots hand came to rest gently on your mid back, as he guided you down the stairwell. You two were quiet the whole time, Pilot focussing on how the dress moved against your figure. You focussing on how his hand felt on the exposed skin of your back.
He drove you to the hall where your work event was being held, and you ran him through who to speak to and who to avoid.
When you arrived you walked in and went straight to the bar, getting a drink for you and Pilot before you began your rounds.
“(Y/N)! How nice to see you!” Your boss called as he and his wife waltzed over to where you stood.
“Mr and Mrs Jamison, lovely to see you.” You greeted them both with a kiss on the cheek.
“I love your dress darling!” Mrs Jamison exclaimed. She was a beautiful older woman, and she had taste, her dress had to cost more than a month of your salary, but she was kind enough to compliment you. “And who is your… friend?” She asked, unsure of who you’d brought.
“This is Pilot Kelson, ma’am. He’s a good friend of mine.” You introduced him.
“He’s a pilot?” She questioned. You chuckled and explained, “No ma’am, that’s just his name.” You smiled. Pilot shook her and Mr Jamisons hands.
“Nice to meet you.” He said politely.
“And you boy. Interesting name you have!” Mr Jamison exclaimed. “Come, let me introduce you to a few people.”
You and Pilot walked around the room following Mr and Mrs Jamison, being introduced to people you hadn’t yet met, and greeting those you had. After about 15 minutes of doing so, you excused yourself and Pilot to refresh your drinks.
You pulled him to the bar and sighed, “This is exhausting.”
Pilot chuckled, “It suits you, you fit in well with everyone.”
You scrunched up your nose in mock insult, “You saying I look like a snob?”
“You do in that dress.” He joked, poking your ribs, causing you to squeal and jump forward slightly into him involuntarily. Pilot laughed as he steadied you with both hands, suddenly stopping as he realised how close your faces were to one another. He could smell the peaches in your perfume.
You cleared your throat and stepped back when the bartender came to serve you. You both ordered fresh drinks and sat down at an empty table.
“So you spoken to Zack yet?” He asked, taking a long swig of his beer.
You shook your head, playing with the straw in your drink.
“No, I think I’ll give it a few days. But I probably should end it in person at least.”
Pilot nodded. A beat of comfortable silence passed as you both people watched.
Couples of all ages took to the dance floor, slow dancing lovingly with each other. It made sense really, almost everyone had brought their other halves, and there were only a small handful of singletons in your company.
Pilot watched you smiling as you gazed on the happy couples. He got up from his seat and extended his hand out for you to take.
“Oh, no way. We know how bad you are at dancing.” You gave him a stern look as you joked. He grinned at you, taking your hand and pulling you up.
“Come on Mrs Kelson, I think it’s time you gave your husband some attention.” He joked loudly. You flushed bright red and hissed at him to shush. Pilot laughed, and pulled you up against him once you reached the dance floor, one hand on his shoulder, his on your lower back, other hands on one another’s as he swayed you slowly back and forth.
“You’ve gotten better. Been practicing?” You questioned him.
“Yeah Jack and I love to slow dance in the living room. We’re romantic like that.” He joked. You smirked at him and rolled your eyes. You both moved gently to the music, and your eyes settled on one another while you did so.
Other couples flitted effortlessly around you, everyone’s eyes watching the sweet young couple now at the centre of the dance floor, dancing slower than everyone else, but your eyes were just on one another, not taking notice to everyone watching you.
“You look so beautiful, you really do.” He breathed, eyes half lidded and dark.
“You look pretty good yourself. I like this-“ you gestured to his slightly unbuttoned shirt, your fingers moving to gently stroke the uncovered skin without thinking.
Pilot let out a soft moan only you could hear over the music.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have-“ you pulled your fingers away and made to apologise but you were interrupted by Pilot squeezing your waist, as if to say it was ok. You smiled at him, your heart beating so hard you thought he’d be able to see it.
“That feels… nice.” He admitted, you grinned softly, and sheepishly moved your fingers back to his exposed chest, just underneath his collar bone. His skin was soft, and you traced the little bit of chest hair he had. When you looked back up at him, his mouth was slightly parted, his pupils were blown, and he was breathing heavily. His lips looked so soft.
“Pilot I-“ again you were interrupted, this time by the band switching to a lively song, and everyone started cheering. You quickly pulled away from one another and the little bubble you’d formed around yourself had burst.
For the rest of the evening, things felt slightly tense, and you and Pilot didn’t spend much time alone until he drove you back to your apartment at the end of the night, neither of you speaking about what had happened.

I correctly predicted when talking to Hayley that despite how unemotional I've been about Ballum lately, I'd be very emotional when actually watching it. what I didn't predict though was that I'd get emotional enough from seeing gifs of it that I now can't make myself actually watch this week's scenes. how could they make the decision to exit Ben now/like this, esp. when neither his sa or ed storylines have even been properly concluded? the fact that he and Cal never got to be intimate again is just awful, as well as this happening before he's truly well from his ed. everything about this just sucks.

The Man in the Long Black Coat (A 1960's Story of Camaraderie) Pt 2
A/N: The previous part of this short story was from Bob Dylan's point of view. Now, in the second and final part of this piece, we explore Johnny Cash's view on their friendship.
Cash's Perspective:
For as long as I can remember, music has been my savior. When I felt alone and unwanted, it became my guardian angel and allowed me to find the light. When all I could feel was the hurt inside of me, it lifted my spirits and helped me to endure. Now, I’m in the spotlight, and fame isn’t all it’s cut out to be.
At first I was hit with rejection, and this solitary man thought he’d never hear his hymns on the radio. I hung my head and felt like quitting, until an industry man came around and deemed my work good enough to distribute to the masses. Now, in my life, I perform for mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, husbands and wives, all representing the family structure I wish I had. Music continues to be my guide, but I’m still a wanderer, searching for a thing called love.
Then I meet him, a scrawny kid from Minnesota with dreams and a never satisfied mind. He is hungry to learn from those that came before him, but quickly makes it evident that he has so much to teach them as well. He’s a long-legged, guitar pickin’ man who takes inspiration from the poets and creates masterpieces of his own. To say I’m a simple fan is an understatement. If you could read my mind, you’d see just how much I admire his ways.
Like me, the price of fame is beginning to take a toll on him. One piece at a time, I see him crumble under the pressure. However, I’ve been here before and know that we must hold on to the one thing that brought us here: the lyrics and rhythms of the songs that we play. Perhaps he and I are alone in this circus, where everyone expects something of us now. One thing I know for sure is that I’ve been everywhere, and I’ve never seen talent quite like his. He’s become a great friend, so I’ll keep encouraging him to chase the wild fantasies in his mind. As for myself, I may be wandering through the chaos like a rolling stone, but I won’t back down from the fight.

And All the King’s Menace
SLAM.
Keys locked the door shut behind her. A low buzz of electricity hummed from the tube of fluorescent light overhead. Another short buzzing sound sliced through the air—an alert. Doors behind doors opened and footfalls heralded the arrival of men.
Upon a silver chair, bolted to the floor, she sat alone. Her seat was mirrored by another, empty chair, on the other side of a tall pane of glass, which evenly divided the room into two identical halves. The window reached from wall to wall and from floor to ceiling. It allowed her to glimpse her own sad reflection in the glass—the disheveled crop of short red hair, and the crumpled suit on her body.
Another buzzing noise. Keys click-clacked and the door on the opposite side of the glass opened. A guard armed with a shotgun stepped inside, avoiding eye contact with her as he maintained his stony-faced expression, taking up a disciplined position to flank the entrance.
A man in a bright red prison jumpsuit followed him inside. Freddy Fletcher. Chains linked his ankles and wrists together in a small metal web, shortening the serial killer’s every step towards the bolted chair on the other side of the glass.
His eyes went wide upon recognizing his visitor. FBI Agent Parker.
The woman who had put him here.
His hands trembled as they glided along the shiny frame of his chair’s back, guiding him until he blindly took his seat, transfixed on the woman sitting opposite of him in the divided room.
One of the guards nodded at Parker, then pointed to the wall behind her.
“Press that button when you’re done.”
“Understood.”
She nodded, but kept her eyes glued to Freddy’s gaze.
Burning into one another. She read fascination there. Married to a distant sense of dread. With his mouth agape, he broke free from initial wonder, and scanned her face up and down. He scanned her entire frame, and wiped a hand over his chin. Disbelieving.
Starstruck.
His expression confused her.
He wants what you have.
The guards exited the room and the door on Freddy’s side slammed shut. Keys click-clacked, locking him inside with her.
He cannot have what you have.
She ignored the Whispers.
Muffled through the glass pane, his voice travelled through tiny breathing holes in the window.
“Agent… Parker. I did not expect to ever see you again.”
You have me.
She sighed and crossed her legs. Folded her hands on her lap, bit her lip and collected herself. Another deep breath, and the Whispers fell silent again.
“I didn’t expect to see you again, either. Especially not now, with—”
“Yeah,” he interrupted. “I’m scheduled for the chair. But I suspect you knew that already.”
“Only learned of it just now. I hadn’t been following your fate at all since the arrest and the trial.”
“Tactful as ever, I see,” he scoffed, with the faintest semblance of a tired smirk.
She narrowed her eyes as her chin crinkled in disgust.
“It’s not my job to flatter you with tact. You killed people without remorse—you ritually peeled off their skin—and you would have taken far more if I hadn’t managed to stop you. Or your entire cult.”
He shook his head. His mien turned sad, with a distant glimmer of regret swimming to the surface, and his gaze fell to the floor.
The moment he replied, he betrayed his true sentiments. They sent a chill down her spine before he even spoke up again.
“I was at the peak of human perfection, Agent Parker.” Once he locked eyes with her again, she averted her gaze. Unsettled by that electric sense of confidence. “Look at me. Look at what you locked away from the world. I am fit, handsome, well-educated, wealthy—well, I was wealthy—and I was going to change the world. You robbed the world of me. You robbed the world of what I could have accomplished for it.”
She shook her head.
Said nothing.
Do not indulge him.
He continued, “You know it’s true. You know what you took away from the world when you got me locked up. What you took away from me.”
The chains jingled as he leaned forward in his chair, creeping closer towards the glass pane between them, without ever getting up from his seat.
Her skin crawled in his presence, just like the first time she met, masquerading as a sheriff department deputy to catch him red-handed.
He hissed, “That book… Agent. Are you… are you at least making good use of it? Have you found a way to continue my legacy?”
Freddy Fletched studied her with burning intent. His gaze simmered with the madness of murder—not a yearning to end her life, but reflections of all the lives he had snuffed out with his hands and his hunting knife.
A knife he had almost plunged into her neck.
She swallowed the lump of nothingness in her throat. Taking another deep breath, she focused on her training. Her education. And her instincts.
Listen…
Another deep breath to snuff out the Whispers in her head.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
Her own voice in her head—no longer the alien entity, speaking to her from the fringes of her consciousness.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
She nodded. First with a painful slowness, then with more fervor.
“Yes,” she finally said with resolve, clenching her jaw to brace for the rest. “I am, in fact, going to finish what you started. I now understand a bit more about… your work.”
The chains jingled again as Freddy leaned back in his chair, mouth agape again.
Confused over this reply.
The gears were grinding behind his forehead, parsing her reply for any lies.
She seized the initiative again and added, “I need you now. I need to learn more about the jade book. The Thaum of Thritain.”
His eyes went wider with every syllable of that accursed name, dancing off her lips. As if he had never heard anybody else speak it aloud.
“How,” she asked. “How did you learn how to use it? How to wield magick?”
The shock and curiosity wiped itself from his visage and a clipped chuckle escaped him. He stared a hole through her forehead, seeking eye contact which she refused to reciprocate.
Listen to us. Do not listen to him.
Freddy licked his lips. Bit them before they widened into a seductive smile.
“Tell you what, Agent Parker. You find a way to get me off death row, and I will tell you all you need to know. I will teach you. I know you have it in you. I sense a… darkness. A Shadow.”
Leave. Leave him and never return. Leave him to die.
She shuddered and stifled a sharp sigh.
“Please,” he added in another sharp hiss. “You destroyed my life. The least you can do is indulge me. At least make an effort. I won’t have any chance of sharing all I know if I’m dead soon. But in a nice cell? Locked up for life? I’ll have time. I’ll give you… lessons… during visiting hours. Answer every question. Meet your every need.”
Her skin crawled again. Under other circumstances, there might have been some strange charm to his words and presence.
Now, Freddy Fletcher’s speech only felt like the drivel coming out of all the other psychopathic serial killers she had interviewed in the past.
Pleading for his life, pitiful in his delusions of grandeur, and all tied up in a neat little bow, spun from the very fabric of devious manipulation.
Listen… to me. Leave. He is walking disease. A filth of the soul that can infect your mind if you sample it.
Do not let him in.
She clicked her tongue and finally responded to Freddy. “I don’t think so. I don’t think you really knew what you were doing, but I had to ask. I had to do my due diligence and ask. Unless you convince me otherwise, I’m going to assume you have no grasp of the occult. You may have known your fancy three-piece suits, how to make a killing on the stock market, and how to get away with murder, but you were toying with things you didn’t understand.”
This struck a nerve.
Left him speechless.
She continued to twist the verbal knife. “See, I did my homework, Mister Fletcher. I always do my homework. In digging around in your personal life, I found no connection whatsoever to the occult. So I have no reason to believe you have any inkling of what you were doing. Even your associate, Philip Byrne—he too, appeared to be clueless. You… I feel like you’re just… s-stringing me along, hoping to convince me to spare you a gruesome end on the electric chair. But I’m not willing to buy you that time unless I get something concrete. Something real. I’m trying, Mister Fletcher. I’m really trying; I truly am. But I can’t work with fantasies and vague theories.”
Slack jawed, he still offered no response to her words. She had twisted each sentence to cut and drill deeper than the last.
Then softened her tone entirely.
“Please. Work with me. I can walk right back out of here emptyhanded, but I don’t want that. If you’re willing to give me what I need, then I will do all I can to keep you off the chair.”
Chains jingled anew. He leaned forward, but every first word failed him before it could emerge. He rolled his jaw, and any replies jumbled around in his head, percolating until he found it in him to finally spill the truth. His expression switched from grimace to smile and back until it all evened out.
His nostrils flared and he finally nodded.
Finally replied in earnest.
“Okay. I admit it. You’re right, I didn’t know—no, I don’t know the first thing about the occult. I don’t know anything about ancient Mayan blood sacrifices to evoke divine magic, or Voodoo, or Wicca, or any such bunk. As far as I know, it’s all nonsense.”
Ignore him. His words are not just disease, they are venom. They are ruin.
She leaned forward, creeping closer to the glass divider between them. Intent on hearing him out.
Freddy continued, “But that thing… that book. The Thaum, it was real. It held something real. You know it—you’ve seen it with your own two eyes, haven’t you?”
Her spine tingled. Hairs on the back of her neck stood on end.
He asked, “Did you… touch it? Did you hold it in your hands? Did you feel it?”
Feeling dizzy, she breathed, “Yes.”
Do not indulge him.
“Yes, yes, I know you did. I knew it before you said it. I can feel it on you. I can see,” the words died in his throat. He shook his head. His words spilled out more hectically. “Listen, please, listen. The truth is, from the moment I looked at that book, and I studied its pages, and the glyphs, and the alien drawings, I understood things.”
He raised his cuffed hands, then pointed at his own temple.
“It feels like a sharp pain at first. Like a knife in your skull, and the sight of bubbling tar pits, and the sickening sweet smell of rotting fruit.”
The images flashed before her eyes. Images she had never seen before. The words flowed together in a dark pool, where her consciousness coalesced, and a shadowy silhouette with her own shape began to emerge from the viscous depths.
“I… I looked at those designs, those awful designs, and I knew. We all knew, even if we all disagreed on what exactly we saw in them. Different, conflicting theories. It didn’t really matter. We all sensed the same thing; that it was leading us to the same place, and the truth was probably somewhere in the middle of all our theories. No need to study any occult bullshit from bygone eras, no need to gather any occult paraphernalia. I just… knew. I knew I needed their skin. I knew I needed to wear a suit made of their skin, which would shield me from the… from the SUBSTANCE. From the stuff on the other side of the door. I knew it would help me open the door, and walk through it to the other side.”
Parker had sensed no such thing from the Thaum of Thritain.
In its place, in her memory, only a dark void swirled like an ominous vortex. Like an event horizon of her own thoughts.
Hungry. Devouring all imagination.
When she next opened her eyes, she glimpsed Freddy’s eyes to have reddened. With desperation, with yearning. His palm turned white where he pressed it flat against the window between them. Confused, she met it, placing her hand against the glass.
Cold to the touch.
“Please, Agent Parker, I’m begging you,” Freddy said with trembling voice. “Don’t let me die here in this wretched pit. Please, I know you can hear it. Please—whatever you are, behind her—I know you’re there. I know you’re listening, watching. I heard you then. I have dreamt of you ever since—”
Shudders shook her spine again and she jolted back away from the glass.
Ignore him.
Freddy relentlessly begged, “I heard you! Whispers! Shadow! Please, speak to me again! I’ve dreamt of you all this time, I’ve dreamt of hearing you again in my mind! You… you are from the other side. The other side of the door—”
Dread gripped Parker’s heart like a vice. Froze her solid.
Whispers? The Whispers snarled. The Whispers became Growls.
Silence him.
“Someone opened the door. Someone slammed the door shut. I dreamt it. But it was open long enough for you to slip inside. Or was it you, Agent Parker? Please, I’m begging you—either of you—speak to me. Tell me the truth. I’ll do anything you want!”
She jolted back again, shocked up into standing by the metal chair—shocked again as Freddy Fletcher slapped his palm against the window, overlapping with the fingerprints she had left on its polished surface.
Parker fought back the tears before any could well up in the corners of her eyes.
Corners in which the shadows teemed with strange life.
Insignificance made flesh. He will die in obscurity.
Leave this insect behind.
The Growls no longer sounded like they came from inside her mind. No longer even resembling her own voice. They felt like they came from an invisible mouth right behind her. Like a Shadow on the wall, growing, looming, towering over her.
Freddy no longer stared at her. He stared at something above her.
Behind her.
Leave.
She refused to follow the order of the Whispers—the Growling—but every fiber in her being was screaming at her to leave.
Yes, Qip. Leave.
We have work to do, you and I.
Freddy Fletcher had risen to full height. Even with the shackles and chains, rendered vulnerable in his bright red jumpsuit, he stood taller than her on the other side of the glass. Wet sparkles glittered with unmasked madness in his eyes.
He slapped the window again as he begged, “Please.”
She backed another step away from the window.
Leave.
Tremors wracked her voice as she gathered herself. She spoke with flaring nostrils, mustering every ounce of courage to ignore the Growls and talk down Freddy Fletcher.
“I-I don’t know what you envision to happen, Mister Fletcher,” she said, “But everything I do is something I do to protect humanity. I am going to keep that door sealed shut, and I’m keeping that book far away from you. This… this was a mistake.”
“No! Please!”
Parker blindly pawed at the button by the door until her fingertips connected to cold plastic, and a loud buzzing resounded from behind the door.
The Growls dropped back down to Whispers.
Yes, Qip. Now you’re speaking my language. I want the same as you. We’re going to preserve your kind for the future.
“No-no-no-no,” Freddy pleaded. Then his desperate face contorted into something hideous and furious. Something feral and violent. He banged his fist against the dividing glass and it shook with every repeated blow. “Do not leave me here! Do not let me die! I can help you! Both of you! You motherfuckers!”
Parker turned her back on Freddy Fletcher.
The sooner she could put the memory of him behind her again, the better.
Agreed. This was a mistake. And you know what, Qip? It may have been for the better, after all. Something very interesting is about to happen.
She bristled at the Whispers’ choice of words. On it using her old nickname from Quantico. But now she focused on them, using them like a blanket to drape over Freddy Fletcher’s growing shouts and threats, to muffle and suffocate them.
Buzzing, click-clack; doors unlocked.
Her mind not only muffled Fletcher’s words, it also muffled the sounds of guards bludgeoning him to stop his assault on the dividing window. And another guard escorted Parker outside the secure visiting cell.
Maybe this was for the best. Sometimes, we just stumble into the right place, at the right time.
You listen, and we’ll guide you into the light, Qip.
The haze lifted. The minutes had melted away. Her fingers, squeezing a cigarette between them, quaked. She sucked in greedy drags of cancer and the little burning stick in her grip burnt down quickly.
The cold of the brick wall behind her seeped through the meager fabric of her black suit jacket.
Somehow, she had even blotted out the Whispers for the past few minutes. Time had melted into meaninglessness. Fragments of the words she exchanged with the prison personnel only reached her with delay, through a haze like a distant dream, dissipating into oblivion.
Freddy’s despair and panic still sliced through the fog. Visions of his face, twisted with dread as he pleaded. The crack of a baton as a guard struck his leg, and he crumpled onto the floor like a bag of rocks, and they wrestled him outside.
The Whispers cut through the fog the same way. With clarity. With precision.
And a hint of something sinister.
He’s here, Qip. Closer than we could have ever dreamt of. Guess that’s synchronicity for ya, huh?
She screwed her eyes shut and stamped the cigarette out. The fresh air outside the supermax prison cut across her exposed skin where a cool breeze swept by.
Listen.
“You need to come back tomorrow, sir. Inmate number 1048467 is, uh, experiencing an episode. Psychotic break. Once he’s medicated and stable, I’m sure the acting physician will admit him to another visit,” said the guard behind the reception desk.
Look.
A man in a black duster stood by the reception desk. Neatly combed dark hair, slicked back on his head. Imposing stature. She hadn’t even notice him enter the prison lobby.
He nodded in response and massaged his left palm with a thumb. When he spoke up, the words cascaded out of his lips with an eerie and hypnotic calm.
“That’s a shame, but I’ll take what I can get. That story isn’t running away from me.”
Unmistakable. Undoubtable.
It was his voice.
The Whispers growled again.
Listen.
And Parker listened.
“Well, I’ll see you tomorrow, then. Nine o’ clock sharp.”
She recognized his voice.
A man she had never seen in person, and she recognized his voice. Smooth and resolute.
Deceptively calm, hiding something powerful behind his folksy words.
A voice from the Gravedigger’s lips, that angry ghost inhabiting a walking corpse, now dead. That demonic presence channeling his summoner while Parker taped his very voice on her recorder.
She almost wanted to root around in her pocket, to produce the recorder and play it back and confirm the match, but she knew, in her heart of hearts, that she would only hear the exact same voice.
The necromancer.
Michael tapped the counter twice. The crooked smile he flashed the uniformed receptionist bore an attractive glow—and the same seductive energy as the serial killer Parker had just spoken to.
Michael.
Michael, hissed the Growls.
Michael, who had sent the Gravedigger after them.
The Way King’s servant. The Oracle of New York.
Don’t just stand there, Qip. You don’t get opportunities like this every day.
Michael had swiveled and sauntered over to the entrance outside of which she stood—rooted to the ground, paralyzed with indecision and surprise.
Michael’s eyes widened, much like Fletcher’s before. Then his lips curled slowly into a smile. He tilted his head and showed perfect white teeth as his smile widened.
Shaking his head, he said, “My, my, my—now this is a surprise even I hadn’t foreseen. Special Agent Quinn Isabelle Parker, in the flesh.” He performed a fluid mock bow that belonged on a theater stage, never breaking eye contact or ceasing to smile. Then he muttered, “Oh, this is rich. This is so, so rich.”
“Michael?” she asked, croaking his name out like a toad.
“Yes ma’am, and I am honored. This is providence. A blessing. I am thrilled to finally make your acquaintance. I’ve been looking for you for so long, but the stars have aligned in unexpected ways, it would seem.”
Kill him.
The Growls scratched with shadowy claws at primal instincts, loosening a knot in her stomach. They teased something out from the darker bowels of her being.
Killer instincts.
Kill him already. You don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, Qip.
And her instinct was—
To sling out her gun and aim it in his face. Demand his surrender with excessive force.
Maybe even pull the trigger, knowing all he had done. All the people he may have killed. A killer like Freddy Fletcher—maybe even worse. Maybe far, far worse—
And yet, she dithered. Those icy talons wrapped around her heart, turning into barbed wire where they twisted and churned, paralyzing her with bleeding indecision.
“Where’d you leave your friends?”
KILL. HIM. NOW.
The Growls had turned into the Roars. Snarling, violent, and bloodthirsty.
Michael’s smile faded. His eyes glistened, damp with anticipation. He looked like he was about to burst into tears of joy.
“It’s… you’re hearing it, aren’t you? Those Whispers.”
Parker wanted to scream.
DON’T WASTE YOUR BREATH ON THAT. JUST RAM THE GUN INTO HIS TEETH, AND REVEL IN THE SOUND OF THEM CRACKING, AND THE THUNDERCLAP TO MATCH THE THUNDER IN YOUR HEART AS YOU SQUEEZE THE TRIGGER AND FINALLY—
“No,” she lied.
No longer able to hold back the tears, her vision blurred. She wiped at her eyes with her sleeve.
Michael stepped up to her. His breath shuddered, warm where it caressed the skin of her forehead. He extended a hand, bringing it near her face with caution—waiting for her to stop him—
BLOW HIS BRAINS OUT, QIP. YOU’RE GONNA REGRET IT IF YOU DON’T. WE… ARE GONNA REGRET IT.
And she did not stop Michael. Her hand burned to grab her service pistol.
Shivers ran down her spine again as he cupped her cheek with an eerily soft touch. Callused skin grazed her face, like a long lost lover’s timid touch of reunion.
Michael’s lips parted. No longer smiling.
Starstruck.
Close to her, he whispered, “I don’t believe you. I saw it through my vision. I… no, I heard it. I heard those Whispers. What are they? Did they… are they from the other world?”
Parker clenched her jaw, frowning, fighting every instinct, trying to suffocate the Roars in her mind like she had squelched Freddy Fletcher’s desperate pleading, then blinked more tears away.
Then she slung out her gun. Michael flinched from the pain of her jamming its muzzle into his crotch.
After wincing, his only reaction was an arched brow and a nervous smirk, but his palm still gingerly caressed her cheek. Either too careful to make any sudden movements, or eager to stay where they were until she told him to do otherwise.
Her skin still crawled.
And her training kicked back in. Muting everything and everybody. A welcome darkness. A more natural one than the alien voices in her mind.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
She hissed at him through gritted teeth. “Only reason I’m not sticking this in your face is because I don’t want to make a scene, because I don’t want to have to cut my way through a whole ocean of red tape before I get any straight answers out of you. You are going to come with me, and you have a lot to answer for.”
“Yes,” he whispered back. The smirk faded. “I’ll follow your lead. I just… please, whatever you do, don’t… don’t listen to those Whispers.”
The Roars had fallen silent.
A new and unexpected fear now crept up through Parker’s insides.
Her trigger finger itched. Twitched around the trigger. Like something was trying to override her own will. Like she was fighting herself. Like something was fighting her from the inside out.
She felt like throwing up on the spot.
Instead, she swallowed down bitter bile and jutted her chin out in defiance. She tapped Michael’s crotch twice with her gun.
“I assure you, I’m not listening to… it. Whatever it is. If I was listening to it, I would have just blown your brains out, right here and right now, and to hell with any consequences.”
Michael bit his lip and the smirk returned.
He said nothing. He removed his hand from her cheek, raised with splayed fingers to join the other in mirrored gesture, performing the universal sign of his surrender.
You’re on your own, whispered the Growls. I’ll be back, Qip. But for now, you are on your own.
“I’m all yours,” Michael cooed in stark contrast.
Parker no longer knew what she found more menacing.
The Whispers, the Growls, and the Roars, all snarling at her to indulge in murder, then refusing to stick around and help when she refused their violent urgings.
Or the unexpected seductiveness of Michael, which she should have seen coming. That he indulged her deepest instincts to deny those Whispers of what they wanted.
No cult without earnest promises. No flies caught without honey.
The occult cabal of the Way King was making more and more sense to her now.
She tapped her pistol against his crotch again.
“Let’s go.”
He nodded slowly and turned his back on her.
With a nervous glance over her shoulder, Parker holstered the gun in her jacket again. The receptionist sitting behind the counter shot her an uninterested glance and returned to reading a magazine.
“Tell me where to go, and I’ll do as you say,” Michael said. Then he sang the rest playfully as he added, “For now.”
Parker balled her hands into fists until her nails dug into her palms. Tensed up every muscle in her body to match.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
She had been looking for a lead, some way to reach the elusive Way King, and now such a lead was just within reach.
And even if the Whispers had decided to stay away—and she prayed against all odds they would—she was not alone. She kept telling herself she was not alone. Derek and Aria awaited her return. They may have already been on their way from the diner, given how long she had been taking.
And with their help, they’d figure something out.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
Michael cast a sidelong glance over his shoulder. Smirking again.
Parker shoved him.
“Walk,” she said. “That rusty old Buick over there.”
Michael chuckled as he spotted the vehicle she mentioned. “Jericho’s car. Oh, well, only the foolish would speak of coincidence in a world such as ours, wouldn’t they?”
He started walking towards the beaten-up old rust bucket. Parker followed. His question hung in the air, carried on the cold breeze, unanswered.
She shuddered again and rolled her jaw before speaking up, “What do you mean, in a world such as—no, scratch that. Tell me something else. Tell me what you wanted here. From him.”
Michael chuckled again.
“You answered your own question.”
Their footsteps echoed across the desolate parking lot. In the grim shadow of the penitentiary’s castle-like building, most of its spaces stood vacant, only with the scant scattered car parked about, and the old Buick resting at the far end of it.
“Don’t play coy with me,” she said.
“Yes, I came to visit Freddy Fletcher. Because he once held that jade book in his hands. Just like you.”
Either the cold breeze or the words caught her by surprise, a minor shock she should have been inundated to by now. Still, she shuddered.
The unsettling sensation repeated itself when Michael glanced back at her over his shoulder.
He continued, “C’mon, Parker. I know you know where it is, even if you don’t know. I know you must know more about it, even if you don’t realize it, and sense what it does. You must know we’re all after it, all for our own little reasons. You’re holding all the cards, so why… don’t you just… share with the class?”
Parker squinted. Swallowed a glib remark, refraining from answering him with any sass. Something she had schooled herself to stop doing, long ago.
Some part of her expected a reaction from the Whispers to take the place of such instincts, but the Whispers stayed silent.
Breathe. One, two, release. Breathe.
“I might,” she said. “I just might. If I’m properly convinced… if I’m convinced it’s the best course of action to protect every innocent person on Earth, I might.”
“Oh, my heart bleeds for you. I think we’ll get along just nicely. And you’re going to love the Way King.”
The cold breeze turned into a violent gust of wind, enveloping them both with such force that they stumbled and stood still to weather the airy blast. It caught the ends of Parker’s jacket and made the fabric flutter and flap.
Michael cocked his head back, smiling.
Loudly, against the howling winds, he addressed the heavens.
“He sees things just like you. Way King! Way King… I found her. Why not bring us home to your heart?”
The clouds swirled with unnatural shape and direction, forming a spiraling vortex in the sky. The gloomy daylight darkened, and blue horizon shifted in tone until a deep crimson saturated it, seeping upwards like earth bleeding into heavens. Distances melted and the skies of different places clashed like different liquids admixing in a glass.
In shock, Parker had drawn her pistol. She swiveled, helplessly surveying her changing surroundings.
Darkness had swallowed the Kentucky State Penitentiary building behind her. The trees around them had turned into abominable hybrids of firs and cacti.
The winds carried dust and desert heat upon them, yet they smelled like the dying winter’s final snow.
And streetlights from another state flared up, one by one, a chain of light cast down a long, paved path; illuminating first the rusty Buick, then the lonesome road before them.
THE HIGHWAY.

“ROAD GANG EMPLOYEE TO SERVE MONTH FOR SEDITION,” Porcupine Advance (Timmins). November 24, 1932. Page 2.1. ---- Amadeo Bonetti, a Swiss who has been in Canada for ten years, and who was arrested after trouble last May at Moore Lake Camp where he had been working with one of the construction gangs on the Trans-Canada highway, was last week sentenced to one month in jail on a charge of making seditious utterances. The accused pleaded guilty and said he was sorry and that his statements had been made in a temper. The fact that the seditious talk came close to helping along a serious situation was not lost sight of by the court and Mr. Justice Wright who tried the case at Pembroke while agreeing with the crown prosecutor, said that he felt that some punishment should be imposed. The month's term was then imposed, this short sentence being no doubt due to the fact that the man had been in jail for six months awaiting trial. The man seems to have been the victim of the agitation and propaganda carried on by aliens in the country for several years. His case should be a warning to all foolish enough to listen to these alien agitators. At the Moore Lake Camp there was a sort of Soviet uprising with talk of pulling down the Union Jack and stepping on it, throwing off all those in authority and all the other disloyal stuff talked about by the group of alien agitators. Bonetti pleaded guilty, and his counsel asked for leniency, pointing cut that he had already been in jail for six months, that he had been a model prisoner in jail, and that though in Canada for ten years he had never been in trouble before. Peter White, crown porsecutor, said he felt it was not a case requiring exemplary punishment. He believed the utterances had been made in a fit of temper, and he was quite agreeable to a lenient sentence, and did not ask for deportation.

Drugs, Thugs and Pilot Kelson Hugs: Part 3
Pairing: Pilot Kelson x Reader
Warnings: Smut, Sexual Themes, Drugs, Alcohol, Swearing, Violence, Cheating
Summary: Quite a smutty chapter, with also a lil bit of fluff.
- Part 2 Here -
——————————
18+ Only beyond this point
——————————————
The day after the work event, you went to see Zack, and you apologised for the misunderstanding a few nights before, but ultimately made him aware you could no longer see him. In his sober state he took it well and apologised to you for how he acted.
You felt lighter leaving his apartment and the week that passed went well. You got a lot of compliments at work about the cute guy you brought to the event and they asked if you were together. You explained you were just friends, but your colleagues hardly believed you.
That weekend you’d opted to stay at home, the last few weeks having exhausted you. You showered and then threw on an oversized T-shirt over your panties before sitting down on the sofa, finally relaxing while watching your favourite movie.
Your mind kept going back to the work event, your fingers running over Pilots hairy chest, the soft moans he made, his lust filled eyes. You felt yourself struggling to focus on your movie.
About halfway through, there was a loud knock on your door. You weren’t expecting anyone so you got up and looked through the peep hole. Your heart jumped, and you opened the door a crack, hiding your bare legs.
“Pilot? What are you doing here?” You asked, surprised.
“Hey… I felt weird leaving things how they were the other night. Can I come in?” He asked.
“Uhhh… yeah just gimme two minutes?” You asked, he nodded with a smile.
You ran off and threw on a pair of shorts before coming back to unbolt the door.
“Come in.” You smiled, stepping aside.
Pilot walked into your apartment and looked around. Your apartment was neat and bright and smelled nice.
He turned to face you as you closed the door.
“You look pretty.” He said, hands in his pockets. Your hair was down and slightly messy, you were free of makeup and in a big T-shirt. You certainly didn’t feel pretty.
“Thanks.” You said coyly, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. “You don’t need to feel weird about the other night, I had a great time. I think maybe I’m the one that made it weird.” You admitted.
“No you didn’t, I was… I really liked.. being there with you.” He said stepping closer slowly.
“You did?” You smiled, leaning up against the back wall of your hallway.
He nodded. “I actually wanted to tell you something, but I’m kinda nervous about it.” He bit his lip.
“What is it?” Your heart was colliding with your chest, as Pilot stood over you. His hand gently moved to your waist, his fingers sliding gingerly underneath your T-shirt and skimming your bare skin.
You pulled in a sharp breath as you waited for him to continue. Pilot thought for a moment, before his fingers flattened on your lower back and his thumb came round to rest on your stomach.
He took a deep breath as he looked at your lips and then into your eyes.
“I wanted to tell you… that when I touch you, it feels like an electric current running through my veins.” He mumbled lowly, his eyes moving back to your lips. “And when you look at me, my skin burns, but in the most incredible way.” His other hand moved to your hand that dangled freely next to you and tangled his fingers in yours.
“And when you speak, my ears ring so loudly that sometimes I can’t hear what you’re saying.” He chuckled, “but the ringing makes me dizzy… drunk… like I don’t want it to stop. Like I don’t want you to stop.” He leaned closer, his face inches from yours.
“And when I look at you… when I really look at you, I feel like my heart might explode. I don’t think my body can handle it for much longer.” He whispered, his lips skimming yours, and suddenly you couldn’t take it anymore.
You pushed up on your tiptoes and kissed Pilot with such hunger that it surprised him, but he moaned and kissed you back, pushing you gently up against the wall.
The hand on your waist moved up over your ribs slowly. Your hands both came up to tangle in his messy hair, and you whimpered into the kiss when his body pressed firmly against yours.
His hand gently slid up until his thumb caressed your under boob. He groaned as he realised you weren’t wearing a bra.
You kissed him desperately, tugging on his hair gently. You bit his bottom lip and he shivered, his free hand tugging on your shorts. You complied and slid them off, leaving you back in your underwear and T-shirt. His hand ran softly up your thigh before sliding back to grip your ass firmly. You jumped and he lifted you up to wrap your legs around him. You licked his bottom lip, and he opened his mouth allowing you access.
Your tongues explored one another before Pilot broke away and began feverishly kissing your neck, sucking wet marks into your skin.
His pupils were blown and you imagined yours were too as you pulled back for a second to look at one another.
“Take these off.” You said, tugging at his jeans. He complied and quickly removed them, kicking them across the room, followed by his T-shirt. He quickly went back to kissing your neck as he gingerly explored your body with his hands.
Finally, his hand cupped your boob, and you moaned, your back arching into his touch.
“Fuck..” he breathed, absolutely filled with lust and unable to contain himself any longer. He kissed you deeply and then pulled your T-shirt over your head. He admired your body, pinned up against the wall as you panted, desperate for him to continue.
He kissed you again, harder and hungrier this time, one hand on your ass and the other pulling his underwear down before moving yours to the side.
He slowly entered you, inch by inch. You both moaned and bucked into one another at the feeling, your bodies flush as his length stretched you out.
“God, fuck yes..” you cried, throwing your head back, back arching as he thrust into you slowly. Pilot’s mouth hung open as he watched you, unable to get over the sight in front of him. His pace began to quicken as he lost all control, eyes rolling to the back of his head. Your bodies crashed loudly against the hollow wall and the grunting and moaning noises coming from both of you only spurred you on.
You tugged on his hair as you bucked into him, and he dipped his head so he could take your nipple into his mouth. He gently nipped you, moving one of his hands to rub your clit in small circles.
You threw your head back as you felt yourself coming, your breathing irregular and shallow, tightening around Pilot’s big shaft.
“Oh shit!” He cried as he felt you tighten, feeling himself going over the edge. He pumped faster, moving a hand to the back of your neck, he kissed you passionately as he let loose, his load filling you up, leaking out of you as his pumping slowed to a halt.
You both panted heavily against one another, you still pinned up against the wall. You were both slick with sweat and your underwear now soaked.
You both chuckled breathlessly, and Pilot gently pulled out of you and lowered you to the ground.
Pilot kissed you softly this time, his arm wrapping around your waist and pulling you against him.
“I have never… ever… experienced anything like that before.” He breathed.
“Can’t say I have either.” You laughed, caressing his sweaty face. “Shower with me?”
———————————————
Pilot stayed at yours that night, and you spent most of your time on the couch, laying inbetween his legs. You spoke about deep things, like his childhood and your life before Vegas. You spoke about what you wanted from life and how Pilot still wasn’t sure what direction his was going in.
You had sex again, on the couch this time, and you rode him until his eyes rolled into the back of his head. Afterwards you lay on his chest and his hands gently explored your every curve. You kissed so much that your lips became swollen, and your bodies sensitive from the constant touching, yet you couldn’t bring yourselves to stop.
Over the next few days, you and Pilot found every opportunity to see one another. He showed up at your work and you snuck him into the bathroom to make out. He knocked on your door late at night, not leaving until the next morning.
By day 8 of your ‘courtship’, while you showered together, hands exploring one another, Pilot suddenly stopped and stared at you under the warm stream of water.
He cupped your cheek and gazed at you lovingly.
“Are we like… together together or?” He questioned, you laughed.
“I don’t know Pilot, what do you wanna be?” You said, kissing his chest.
“I wanna be together together. I wanna be yours only.” He admitted, so serious it made your insides clench. You nodded and stood on your toes to kiss him.
“Then that’s what we’ll be. I promise to be yours and only yours, as long as you promise me the same thing.”
He smiled, his forehead resting on yours, water running down your faces. “You know I’m all yours, (Y/N), there’s nobody else for me.”
Your relationship grew over the weeks, going from strength to strength. Everyone was sick of the two of you and the constant gooey looks you gave one another from across rooms. If it wasn’t that, you couldn’t keep your hands off of one another. Pilot was always kissing you, holding you or trying to dance with you, it was your cute little thing.
One night however, everything was about to change. Someone had noticed Pilot, and once she had her eyes on him, she wasn’t willing to let go so easily.
You were at the bar with your usual group, and Lucy, Pilots ex girlfriend from 7 years prior, noticed you all standing around the bar. She had come out for her best friends bachelorette party and immediately recognised the familiar, handsome face.
Lucy had grown her hair out and looked good, but was nowhere near on your level. You were the girl of Pilot’s dreams, but what you didn’t have in your favour was Lucy’s newfound determination.
Over the years she had learnt to get exactly what she wanted, and she was fierce about it.
Walking over to where you and Pilot stood, his arm draped over your shoulder as you laughed about something, Lucy cleared her throat.
“Well well well. If it isn’t Pilot Kelson himself.” She smirked, crossing her arms to push out her breasts.
Pilots smile fell from his face as he stood upright.
“Hi Lucy, it’s been a while.” He said awkwardly. You looked between the two of them before sticking out your hand and trying introducing yourself politely.
“Hi! I’m (Y/N).” You said, shaking her hand.
“Ah yeah, sorry baby, this is Lucy, my ex. Lucy this is (Y/N), my girlfriend.” He said, reintroducing you two properly. He looked tense, and the smirk on Lucy’s face made you uncomfortable.
“Nice to meet you Lucy. I need to use the bathroom, why don’t you two catch up and I’ll meet you back here?” You smiled. Pilot tried to stop you but you decided they needed to quash whatever weird tension there was and you wanted to give them the time to do so.
You pulled Carly and Cassie with you to the bathroom to tell them about the weird encounter. Cassie laughed and told you not to worry, she had briefly met Lucy once years ago right before they broke up, and she was nothing to worry about, a nice girl apparently. You felt better as you fixed your makeup in the bathroom mirror. You trusted Pilot, you knew how he felt about you, it was hard not to see it.
Once you were all finished in the bathroom, you made your way back out into the busy bar. Your eyes scanned the room for Pilot but he and Lucy were nowhere to be seen.
You walked around trying to find any sign of them, eventually deciding to try outside. You gestured across the bar at Carly to let her know where you were going and she gave you a thumbs up.
You squeezed past the sweaty, drunken patrons and out into the fresh, cool air, taking a deep breath, which was immediately knocked out of you when you saw what was unfolding in front of you.
“Pilot?” You cried.

for everyone who is wondering why she hasn't been fired, or if she got disciplinary action against her; she didn't and the only chance of it happening is if the police come to press charges.
she owns the coffee shop. she isnt just 'a worker'.
thats her shop. he was harassing her because of prices he knows she established. he was trying to intimidate her into dropping the prices because he knows shes the one who has that authority. he would probably still do it to a worker, but this honestly makes what he did even worse. Because she had even given him a discount; just for him bc he has entitled male syndrome. and even that wasn't enough for him.
“Women are allowed to respond to danger in ways other than crying.”
I love seeing women fight back, she’s such a queen 🥰❤️
#ok but i am SO happy to hear the cops havent arrested her and arent treating her like the aggressor as they so often do#most women who are in prison for assault; battery; DV; theyre in there bc they fought back. bc their abuser had self defense wounds#inflicted on him.#im so glad she not only did it (girlboss) but will likely get away with it with a slap on the wrist (girlqueen)#edit; but also to charge $22 for two medium drinks; one of which is water? highway robbery. i support what she did but i do not support her#prices

ONE-SHOTS
Three's a Crowd (But Four...) — “So, are they like holograms? Or can you really touch them?” “Why? Trynna cop a feel, sweetheart?” In which you and your boyfriend find very unconventional uses for his powers.
Why Can't I Keep My Fingers Off You? [Part 1] [Part 2] — There were two things missing in the scene in front of you: 1. The aphrodisiac chocolate your friends had given as a gag gift last Christmas that had been hidden away in the back of your refrigerator. 2. Your dear fiancé.
Dream A Little Dream — For the strongest, it was a privilege to dream. Especially when his dream is you.
Initiation! — “Just a small initiation, nothing too serious.” Couldn’t be too hard, right? So why are you - the all-new frat sweetheart - being pinned to the bed and stuffed full from all ends by your frat brothers?
One More? Please? — A kiss always solves everything! But when a kiss turns into something more…well, it’s only a desperate attempt to unseal yourselves from this damned prison realm, right? Right?
Everybody Knows That I'm a Good Girl, Officers... — You don’t know what’s faster - how fast you were speeding down the highway, or how fast you’re on your knees for the hot officers that just so happen to pull you over.
Hope They Catch Us — When you’re on-screen, it’s always a rivalry to see who’s best - you just never thought that it would be the same struggle in bed.
Unmistakably Yours — In which the strongest bends space and time - literally - after coming back from deatḣ, to do what he’s always wanted to do - you.
Madam Gojo — Gojo Satoru, the strongest clan leader in all of Japan - and the most dangerous, too. You, rejected by the elders, and totally not his future bride, right? Right?
Can't Touch Me (Like Gojo) — In which intentionally making your fríend-with-benefíts jealous ends up with more benefits than you’d think.
The Heir — No, your clan leader husband won’t stop until he gives you an heir. No, you don’t think you’ll make it out alive.
LONGFICS
The Call — After an explosive fight with your boyfriend, you really should feel sorry about being swept up by the blue-eyed stranger at the club - but it’s so hard when he kisses you like that.
Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy — He knows that you would be one of his favorite stories from his travels. And you know that you want nothing more than to stay by his side. After meeting an alluring cowboy at Ol’ Rustcliffe Saloon, both of you are sure of one thing - this must be fate.
Go For It, Gojo! [Part 1] [Part 2] — You wouldn’t fuck Gojo Satoru even if you were paid…is what you thought exactly five minutes before you were shoved against the wall of this cramped closet, his face stuffed in your soaked panties.
Unhoneymooners!? — The universe was surely playing a joke on you. Here you were, trapped on a luxury getaway with your - dangerously handsome, extremely obnoxious - ex. Either you were going to kill each other or end up pinned beneath him, split apart on his cóck. You just didn’t know what would come first.
AITA For F*cking My Sugar Daddy's Son?! — When your sugar daddy just isn’t paying attention to you, can you really be blamed for fúcking his son? Especially when his son is absolutely obsessed with you.
Bad Boys Bring Roses — You’ve never dealt with the yakuza - not once. So why is the future head of the Gojo clan suddenly coming up to you, demanding that you marry him for 30 days?
The Way You Kiss Me — The four times Satoru tries really hard not to kiss you - his best friend’s pretty younger sister. And the one time he doesn’t.
Isn't That Sweet? (I Guess So) — Oh no! Why do your pantíes keep disappearing? Well, maybe your hot roommate knows the answer…
Haunting You — A bIoody trail of vampire attácks, a political marriage, and four suitors you’re forced to choose from - all haunting you. But none as much as the mysterious stranger that makes everything in you scream that you might just be fated for the very thing your kingdom is trying to escape from.
You'll Taste Me Too! — How do you last three days on a work trip with the man you hate the most in the office? You don’t - you end up pinned underneath him, instead.
We Neva Play! — Turns out, the “r” in rivals stands for “really good séx” when a mission becomes a little too hot to handle.
Something Stupid — Five times the strongest would rather díe than tell you he loves you, and the one time he almost does. Almost.
ONE-SHOTS
Initiation! — “Just a small initiation, nothing too serious.” Couldn’t be too hard, right? So why are you - the all-new frat sweetheart - being pinned to the bed and stuffed full from all ends by your frat brothers?
Like An Animal — Of course Toji doesn’t want any more kids. Of course he’s lying as he stuffs your pretty cúnt full of his cúm for the third time tonight.
Whiskey, Neat, With a Side of You — When your date stands you up, you’re lucky that the hot bartender is more than happy to keep you company!
Everybody Knows That I'm a Good Girl, Officers... — You don’t know what’s faster - how fast you were speeding down the highway, or how fast you’re on your knees for the hot officers that just so happen to pull you over.
F*ck You! (Literally) — Of course, you hated your ex-husband. Of course, you found yourself in bed with him on your wedding anniversary.
LONGFICS
Government Hooker — With the fame and glory of being an international popstar comes the inevitable threat of an overzealous stalker. You just didn’t think that it would also come with a very sexy, buff bodyguard behind your every move.
Madam Zenin — There’s nothing that rouses Toji, the infamous head of the Zenin clan, nothing that will make him lose control - until they take what’s most important to him. You.
ONE-SHOTS
Brooklyn Baby — Everybody wanted to fuck Suguru Geto, lead bassist of Tokyo Special Grades. Said Suguru doesn’t want to fuck anyone else but you. He couldn’t give less of a fuck if anyone walked in right now. In fact, a small part of him wishes someone would.
Initiation! — “Just a small initiation, nothing too serious.” Couldn’t be too hard, right? So why are you - the all-new frat sweetheart - being pinned to the bed and stuffed full from all ends by your frat brothers?
Golden Boy — Falling right back in love with the cult leader you’re supposed to kíll? Happens more often than you’d think.
LONGFICS
ONE-SHOTS
Initiation! — “Just a small initiation, nothing too serious.” Couldn’t be too hard, right? So why are you - the all-new frat sweetheart - being pinned to the bed and stuffed full from all ends by your frat brothers?
A Million Dollar Baby! — Turns out, rent can be paid in much more than one way.
LONGFICS
ONE-SHOTS
Welcome To The Itadori's! — Three times Choso really, really wanted to hold you without his family barging in, and the one time he actually does.
FIVE! — Five hours - it’s all it takes for Choso’s baby fever to take over. After all, you’d look so pretty with his kid - five of them, in fact.
LONGFICS
Great With Kids? (You Can Have Mine) — When your younger brother gets a new babysitter, only two questions linger on your mind: 1. How come your parents didn’t trust you in charge? 2. How dare the sexy babysitter be so perfect - it made you want some attention too.
Freak On The Cam! — Choso always loved watching you - his pretty lil’ camgírl - from behind the screen. Who knew he’d love being on-screen with you even more?
ONE-SHOTS
Can't Touch Me (Like Gojo) — In which intentionally making your fríend-with-benefíts jealous ends up with more benefits than you’d think.
LONGFICS
Exes who...
Love Is Blind
“She My Best Friend, Yeah We Not a Couple.”
Wanna Do Bad Things To You
I Wanna Get Freaky On Camera
Lemme Ride, Baby!
Can I Fill You Up, Baby?
"Pull On It. Harder."
