#shouting into the void cuz I just don’t know if it’s even worth continuing

[athenasnina]

I blame the anon of @demonscantgothere whoever you are, you got me to rewatch fucking medici, a show I did not even like that much, then I was like, whelp might as well go all in and watch Charlie’s one other boring ass movie where AGAIN, he acts like the cutest cinnamon to have ever cinnamon rolled.

Why, Charlie, can you not play as any other sassy smug assholes?

And dammit, now I’m 4 chapters deep into this Halbrand/Galadriel one night stand but she doesn’t even like him prompt at @saurondrielprompts, but being the shit writer I am who can only do sad/fluff, Halbrand is just a smol sad kicked puppy no matter how many times I try to rewrite it! This bitch will not be Halbrand and continues to just be an amalgamation of Guglielmo and Daniel with absolutely no Halbrand in sight. So I’ve given up trying to force it.

AND I NEED TO KNOW IF ANYONE ACTUALLY WANTS THIS ABSOLUTELY OOC HALBRAND with nothing but the Halbrand name slapped onto the foreheads of two other Charlie characters.

Setsuno Toya x reader

1.8 k words, fuffy smut, some angst 

He was uneasy, shifting in his sleep. Past trauma replaying like a movie in his head, his cheating ex and the downward spiral he fell into because of her. "Please...end me.." He whispers crying to himself. His past life before the yakuza was not a happy one, a life that often made him go into a dark mercy less void of all his thoughts. If that hero never showed up it would have been over. 'You couldn't even finish yourself off' 'You're a pathetic shell of a man Setsuno Toya' the faceless voices yell at him. "Please..." He croaked out crying.

"Setsuno." You woke up hearing him cry "Setsuno are you okay?" The moonlight from the window barely lit the room, but it was enough to see his tears. Oh god…

"Please" he begs crying.

"Setsuno it's okay I'm here" moving his hair aside and wiping the tears off his face. These episodes were nothing new, but now you were there to comfort him.

"_I'm sorry i-"

"No don't apologize, you have nothing to be sorry for. It’s okay" 

He continues to cry without saying a word. You reach over hugging him tightly. 

"Shh, it's okay its not your fault" whispering as you brush his hair. 

"Please love me" he blurts out "I want to be whole again" he rambles still in his dark state. 

"Setsuno I already love you"

"Do you promise? I don't want  to be left alone again." 

"Setsuno you know I would never hurt you" resting his head on the crook of your neck, calming down. "Do you want me to hold you?" 

He nods. Poor man was so emotionally strained, but you didn't care because you love him, he was perfect to you. even with all his flaws. You sigh kissing his forehead "I'm right here baby okay?"  He cuddles against your body taking in all the affection.

"Is there anything you need?" He shook his head 

"Just for you to cuddle me" he whispers. You smiled kissing him all over "Don't worry, I'll cuddle you as long as you want me to." He nervously smiles "Now let's gets some rest."

"Mhm" he cuddles against you holding onto you like his life depended on it. You brush your fingers through his hair whispering how much you loved him.

"I love you."

He nods drifting into a deep slumber once again "I love you too"

Hours later you sense movement again, was he experiencing another episode? He was slightly panting breathing against your neck

"_" he moaned out. That's when it hits you, you look down and see him grinding against your thighs. He continues to moan as he thrusts. You blush contemplating if you should wake him up or not. But you couldn't he looked so soft, lost in his mindless lust.

He softly moans into your ear how much he loves you. 

"I love you too" you whisper pulling down your panties.

He continues to thrust, the tip of his clothed cock hitting your entrance. You pull him closer whispering nothing but praises. "You're doing so good, it feels so nice warming your cock baby" he nods unconsciously "Take it all..just for you.." He mumbles. You kiss his forehead "I love you so much setsuno, one day we're going to get married, start a family."

He nods, thrusting into your thighs mumbling your name.

"Make...babies" he held onto you tighter. He wants a family? Okay you'll give him one. You'll make Him happy after all the hell he'd been through

"Don’t worry we're gonna make all the babies you want" you kiss him before straddling him, slowly taking off his boxers. His cock springs out, precum dripping from the tip.

you blush "oh look at you all worked up, even in your sleep you look so soft" you coo positioning yourself.

His length slid in you easily from how wet you were it still nonetheless stretched out your walls.

" Fuck..." you groan adjusting to his size. Setsuno moaned a little "_" you shushed him

"Shh just enjoy the moment baby" riding him was a little hard, not wanting to wake him up, but also wanting to enjoy yourself. You touch him all over, he was so beautiful and was all yours.

"Toya!" you moan nearing your climax, as you caressed his face.

"___?"

you gasp looking down seeing your boyfriend awake "Setsuno I-"

"No, keep going" placing a hand on your hip the trails all the way up to your breasts pinching your nipples. "Did you really mean it? That you wanted to make babies?" he asks tilting his head.

"yes" you nod "I meant it all, I love you setsuno" you continue riding him leaning down to give him a kiss. He blushes and wraps his arms around you. "I don't want this to ever end" he whispered moans into your ear.

"It doesn't have to because we're gonna start a family, I promise" kissing him all over as you run your fingers through his hair. Setsuno looks at you with watery eyes, the emotions were too much for him to handle. For the longest time, he'd given up on ever finding love again after being cheated and betrayed. Yet here you were on top of him showering him with love and praises while talking about starting a family. It was too much for him.

"Are you okay?" you looked at him worried. He nodded letting you kiss away his tears. 

what did he ever do to deserve you?

"Yeah, I'm just emotional, sorry" despite trying to sound fine he didn't. You could tell something was on his mind.

"Baby" you cupped his face in your hand "I love you, nothings ever gonna change that” you kiss his forehead giving him a warm smile, he looks back at you giving you one of his goofy smiles. Why did he have to be so adorable? “And you wanna know something? You’re a wonderful man in my eyes, I love you so much” you passionately kiss him intertwining your fingers with him “You need to stop doubting yourself, you’re just enough for me, I’m not her and I’m not going to leave you like she did. Even if you don’t think that you are, you are worth being loved, you deserve to be loved. She’s the one who didn’t deserve you, not the other way around.

                                                     .

                                                     .

                                                     .

“_” he softly called out your name, barely above a whisper, more tears built up in his eyes “thank you...you’re the nicest person that I’ve ever been in a relationship with.”

You internally sigh, it was sad because you knew it was most likely true, Setsunos past lovers weren’t deserving of him, to say the least. “I don’t know what to say really but thank you, I’m really lucky to have you.” you cup his face smiling down at him, he smiles back resting his hands on your hips, for the first time he almost felt truly happy he didn’t know if any of this would remain in the future, but now he just wanted to be with you. “Now where were we~” you sensually whisper to him, nibbling on the shell of his ear.

“We did say something about starting a family unless biology taught me wrong, you can’t exactly conceive through hugging,” you smirk looking at him with lustful eyes, he gasps covering his blushing face. “Let me show you how much I truly love you~” 

You slowly go down south leaving a trail off kisses and bite marks until you reach the base of his cock keeping eye contact with him as you did, giving his cock a few pumps before kissing the tip. He shudders, he’d been intimate before with past lovers, so sex was nothing new to him, but now that he was with someone who genuinely cared and loved him it felt like he was experiencing his first time all over again. 

You lick alongside his length swirling your tongue against the veins, smirking whenever you heard him moan “Hehe you like that, I bet you do~” after deciding that it was enough teasing and prepping you stick him in your mouth.

“_-__!” he moaned gripping onto the sheets, in shock from how nice your lips felt around him. Setsuno felt as if his body ascended to another plane of existence where all that mattered was this moment, everything outside the four bedroom walls becoming irrelevant and meaningless, just him and you. “Oh god __!” he sits up looking down at you, you looked so beautiful and angelic even when his cock stuffed your mouth.

He lifts a shaky hand unsure whether to grab your hair or to keep gripping onto the sheets until they tore.

“Fuck!” he throws his head back cursing, already feeling a knot build up in his stomach, huffing as he blissfully curled his toes. Setsuno was trying so hard not to cum, yeah he wanted to cum but not yet. He wanted to cum at the same time as you, to feel you become undone with him. 

"_ I'm gonna cum….fuck so close!"

With that you decided it was enough foreplay before he got too tired to actually fuck you. 

Pop your lips detached from the tip of his cock leaving only a string of saliva connecting you two, giving him a final smile before positioning yourself over his cock.

“Mmm you ready, cuz I’m gonna ride you all night long~ ahhh!” you slowly slid down his cock, biting your lip as his cock stretching out your warm moist walls. Setsuno moaned feeling how nicely you wrapped around his cock. You rode him slowly, kissing and whispering sweet nothings, his hands held onto your hips leading you down his shaft.

“Beautiful, you’re so beautiful” he turned his attention towards your breasts lifting his head to suck on your delicate buds. Your back arches as you feel the tip of his cock hit the entrance of your womb. “Fuck! Oh baby, I think I’m gonna cum soon. Guess all that teasing got me riled up too.”  you hold onto him changing up your speed chasing after both of your climaxes.

Setsuno hides his face in the crook of your neck, kissing and panting against your shoulder. “I - I love you!” he shouts before his hot seed fills your womb, you cum soon after him, falling onto the bed “I love you too” you give him one last kiss before dozing off, caressing his face.

It was midnight as Setsuno unlocked the door, he quietly made his way through your apartment as you were more likely sleeping at the hour. So it surprised him to see you awake when you entered the room.

“Ah you’re awake? You didn’t have to wait for me you know” he walked over to you kissing your cheek.

“Oh I know but someone wouldn’t let me rest” you rub your swollen belly smiling at him.

“Aww” he caresses your belly “is someone keeping mommy awake?” he feels a light kick against his hand. Was this the happiness he longed after? Maybe the past was long ago but now he was happy and in the end, he got the family he always dreamed of having.

Bad Ending AU (not canon)

Soooooo @24hourshipping wrote a similar fic and I figured I would write the bad end for my universe as well! It’s exceptionally sad lmao

Please don’t read if you’re prone to depressive episodes as a result of angst, it’s under a cut for those that don’t want the sad~

Elizabeth sobbed, paying no attention to the ache in her ribs or the searing pain in her chest. She had better things to worry about after all. The man of her dreams was dying, and there was nothing she could do. Lancelot refused to hand over the tablet, it seemed he was determined to end his life, as well as the lives of all the exhibits.

“You monster!! Why can’t you just grow a pair and give me the tablet?!”, Eliz shrieked, her voice hoarse from crying, “Why can’t you just leave us alone? They’ve done nothing to you and you’re killing them!!”

“This is not a life worth living, creature!”, Lancelot spat bitterly, “To be nothing but a wax figure, ogled and ridiculed by lesser folk, I shan’t have it! You should thank me, I’m giving all these poor souls the rest they deserve.”

“NO!! YOU’RE A COWARD, AFRAID TO LIVE WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR EXISTENCE IS A LIE!! YOU WERE NEVER REAL, AND YOU CAN’T DEAL WITH THAT!! YOU’RE NO KNIGHT, YOU’RE NOTHING BUT A GOOD FOR NOTHING FAKE!! YOU DON’T DESERVE TO BEAR THE NAME LANCELOT, BECAUSE I’VE MET HIM AND YOU’RE A POOR IMITATION!!”, Eliz’s voice shook the building and Lance’s eyes widened, perhaps in indignation, perhaps in fear, but Elizabeth didn’t care.

All she cared about was Ahk, and he wasn’t doing well at all. It was horrible, more awful than she could have possibly imagined. Ahk was decomposing, slowly transforming back to a mummy, and all Eliz could do was watch. He raised a hand and shakily tried to push her face so that she was facing away from him, but he was so weak he could barely manage even that.

“Please…… look away……. I…… I don’t want you…….to see me…...like this”, he rasped.

Eliz’s eyes shone with tears and she grabbed his hand and kissed it.

“No, I want to look at you, cuz you’re beautiful no matter what, and I want to see you, I want to look at you forever. I love you”.

The pharaoh blinked a tear from his eyes and smiled at her, “Even when I look like this…… you are still so kind to me. My……… goddess.”

Eliz’s eyes widened as his body continued to wither away and his soul began to slip from his body.

“N-no…. No! You can’t leave me!! Please!! Please don’t go!! I can’t…..”, her voice broke, “I don’t know what I’ll do without you!!!”

She turned sharply and watched as Lancelot froze, the tablet slipping from his hands. As if in slow motion, Eliz saw the tablet fall and hit the concrete, and in a single horrible moment…..

It shattered into a million pieces.

The dragoness screamed, watching as all the exhibits returned to their frozen and inanimate forms, and she returned her gaze to Ahk. A ragged sob tore from her chest as she looked at the mummy that only hours ago was her mate. He was near unrecognizable, and even his clothes looked worn and ancient, his crown tarnished as the tablet had been.

Eliz sobbed, her anguished cries echoing throughout the night air. She suddenly stood and limped to the remains of the tablet, shouting a spell though her tears. It had no effect. She screamed it over and over again but nothing happened, and Eliz screamed again.

Her breathing became ragged and she spun to where Lancelot’s wax figure stood, it’s face still wide eyed. Eliz snarled and drew a breath before exhaling sharply, a jet of white-blue fire bursting forth from her open maw and completely decimating the wax figure. Not even ashes remained of Lancelot now.

Eliz turned and with a wave of her hands a few portals opened, closing gently around each exhibit and transporting them back to their home, back to the museum. Larry and Nicky followed through another portal, and when they arrived they stood together silently, watching their friend with sad expressions.

As quiet as a ghost, Eliz placed every exhibit in their rightful place, but she couldn’t change their pained expressions, nor could she fix their poses. It didn’t matter though. Lastly, Eliz picked up Ahk, and her heart ached at how light his body felt. She walked silently to his tomb, sliding open his sarcophagus and placing him gently inside. On the lid were sticky notes with doodles she had drawn for him, and a nightlight shaped like a smiling cat. There was a pillow that he had found, full of microbeads but strangely not enough so that the pillow was always too squishy. He had loved it though, because it was purple, like her.

She tried to take the items that were laid in his sarcophagus, but she couldn’t bring herself too. Something about taking them felt wrong, and she wanted the things he loved to remain there with him. Instead she took the one thing that she knew he would want her to have; his cloak.

She replaced it with a copy, one she had made long ago in case his real one went missing. That seemed like such a faraway time now. Eliz put the cloak over her shoulders, and she looked down one final time. It was then that her legs gave out and she collapsed beside him.

“Why? Why does everyone I love die? Why does everything that makes me happy get taken away from me? Why did you have to take him?! WHY COULDN’T YOU HAVE TAKEN ME INSTEAD?! HE DIDN’T DESERVE THIS!! HE WAS GOOD AND KIND AND I LOVED HIM!!!”, her voice died to a mere whisper, “I loved him so much”.

There was so much she wanted to say to him, the man she had loved so deeply. So many words that were yet to be spoken, and would now never be said. Eliz pulled the lid closed and set the heavy slab of stone on top. She then looked at the wall where the tablet would be, and she wondered what to put in it’s place.

An idea struck her and she held her hand out, a beam of magical energy carving a message into the wall. It was written in runes that couldn’t be read by mortal beings and it could never be removed or covered. And with that, Elizabeth walked out of the tomb and down the stairs and through the doors of the museum for the last time.

Larry and Nicky never saw her again.

That day the city was in an uproar of the theft of the Tablet of Ahkmenrah and the strange message that the thief supposedly left. No one ever figured out what it said.

Only the dragoness who wrote it knew, for the words were seared into her forever;

‘Here lies the man I love,

Taken from me by a cowardly wretch,

I return him here to be amongst his family,

For they were killed as well,

And here I also leave my heart,

For it belongs to him,

And I have no more use for it anyways.’

Signed, The Fallen Goddess

Drega was rarely seen, for she seldom left her home anymore. Her soul had been shattered as surely as the tablet was, and there was nothing that could repair it. And no matter how much she wanted to, the dragoness was cursed to never die, so she would live forever with a broken heart.

But she was far more clever than that.

It is said that she went to the realm between realms, that she went to the void of worlds and closed her eyes to reality. Casting herself and her responsibilities away.

The universe saw her and granted her the rest she desired, but still her soul could not reach his.

It seems that this story has no happy ending.
