"The woman knew Gahndi! And then she made me tea and put milk in it without asking. It was extremely weird. The tea was hot too -- it's in the eighties. Who wants hot tea? Not me."

She suppresses a laugh at Bash's dramatics, leans in to kiss his cheek when his attention returns to the screen. I learned from the best, she thinks, but decides against inflating his ego any further than it already is. Rei does laugh—gentle, loving—at his grumbling. "Darling. If Kali was going to hold a grudge against you, it would've been when we brought the parasites home. Those loud, wriggling facehuggers demanding all of our attention? Even when you did have time to sit down, you usually had one of them in her place on your lap. She got used to them quickly, I might even go so far as to say she loves them. And you never know, she may enjoy having something she can boss around."

he’s lining up the enemy in his crosshairs when rei comes in and stabs him with a knife to the heart. hand to chest he meets her gaze, betrayal flashing behind blue eyes.   ❝   take one out of my book and kill me without warning, why don’t you?   ❞   black controller buzzes in his hand indicating he’s been shot, and bash slowly drags his attention back to the screen to make a selection for when he regenerates. he doesn’t want to think about kali getting older and what that might mean, but… maybe rei has a point. he doesn’t have to be happy about it, though, and grumbles,   ❝   what if she hates it and then hates me for bringing it into her space?   ❞

22: ☀️ :: winter sun means the beach and warm shores. as you sit by the ocean, you hear the sound of soft footsteps in the sand..., for @sniperwithasmoke

She used to do this with her family every year; benefits of growing up where she did, honestly. They’d spent Christmas Day with Maisy’s family, and Rei makes another mental reminder to get Jeanie something Nice for offering to take care of the twins for the next week and a half. It’s not like it was hard to get Bash on board with the idea, not after mentioning sun, sand, and the rather skimpy bikini she’s currently wearing. Winter meant the Southern California beaches were considerably less occupied than usual, but so much warmer than their home in London, and lying on the sand was warmer still.

She’s stretched out on a beach towel, drinking in the sun and propped lazily on her elbows to watch the push and pull of the tide. She’d missed this - the Thames was no comparison to the massive expanse of the Pacific. Even over the roar of the ocean, she hears Bash’s approach, tips her head back to smile at him. “Not so bad, is it?” she teases gently, expression warmer than the sun above them.

She’s not a stupid woman; Charlotte knows better than to touch a box that appears on her desk with no warning. They’ve just returned from their—brief, but wonderful—honeymoon and she’d checked in on her office the night before, just to get some organization started before returning to the work today, and the box hadn’t been there. A glance tells her it hadn’t been posted; someone had hand-delivered it to her desk. She approaches carefully, cautious not to bump it as she examines it. She can’t hear any movement inside, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a bomb. Written across the top, where a post mark should be, is “To the happy couple”. It’s a beautiful script, likely a woman’s, but Charlotte knows damn well what women are capable of. She won’t make the mistake of writing off the fairer sex the way so many of her male contemporaries do.

She pokes her head out the office door, glancing down the hall. “Sebastian? There seems to be a gift waiting for us.”

😏

SHE HUMS  as her screen lights up  tell-tale blue,   a quiet little noise in the roof of her mouth somewhere between  PLEASURE  and disapproval.   he could work a little harder at his eloquence  ––    Miss Esmeralda is,  after all,  a  lady,  and one that likes to be  WOOED.  but there’s nonetheless a pleasure  in having any man  JUMP at the bait ;  his attention is so easily predictable.

           😏

well.  she could feign dignity.   hot then  COLD.  hard to get.  but  two can play at this game,  and it’s far more fun to imagine the  FRUSTRATIONS  she’s inciting in him.

today is for thinking abt the differences between hugo and the other lads !! specifically when it comes to touch, like :

hugo needs touch and to be touched at all times. he’s the casual intimacy, the roving hands, the sticky fingers. pin him down or tie him up and he’ll whine. his hands are used for expression in all forms. touch him, hold him, poke him, lean against him, play with his hair. touch touch touch touch touch.

bash uses touch as a means to an end. if his hands are on you it’s Only leading up to pleasure or pain. that’s not to say he can’t touch for other reasons, but he doesn’t necessarily think of it the way hugo does. he only seeks out touch when he wants to feel things. @sniperwithasmoke

and then max. touch averse, touch starved. he’s very glancing touches, fingers brushing as something is handed off. dancing around each other. he’s not necessarily afraid of receiving touch, but he needs to trust the person before he can trust the purposeful contact. @mirafirstmate

tbh i’m also thinking abt jb since logging into him last night. and how his touch is an act. it’s silky and smooth because it’s rehearsed. everything he does is planned because if he doesn’t have that… honestly, if he allows himself to act without having considered every angle, he’ll be in new territory. he doesn’t like being caught off guard. @contrefacteur

the art of domesticity starters - accepting 

A Grisha hiding amongst the First Army - improbable, but certainly not impossible. It seemed Nikolai was hearing more and more of children who had originally failed testing exhibiting power years later. Though, he never expected to find a Grisha within his own regiment. 

The first time he’d seen it was in the heat of battle. He had been thoroughly distracted by a Fjerdian with thing for battle axes. Though, out of the corner of his eye, he’d seen Moran raise his hands and his opponent... just drop. 

Ever since, he’d kept an eye on him, watching for a repeat show. He could almost swear he’d seen him trying to practice on a particularly annoying soldier in their group, but it seemed Basher was smart enough to be sneaky about it. 

“My apologies,” Nikolai responded, though his words were anything but apologetic. “I was picturing you in a kefta. I can’t decide whether red is your color or not. Or if a kefta would look good at you at all, for that matter.”

welcome to the heist   //   @sniperwithasmoke​ The bar is far more run down than what Palermo can remember before he packed what he could and left. The brick work looks damaged and the window shutters coming off their hinges. Poverty struck this part of Florence a long time before he had even stepped foot into the city, but now, it seems that it’s drenching the last bit it can grab its hands on. The bar was never in great shape to begin with, but now, he feels he would surely miss the place he drank his sorrows in if it were to disappear. 

Not that there might be a chance to do so in future. As grim as the thought may be, the complications that the Professor’s easy and ‘smooth’ Mint Heist ran into, there was a higher possibility that his hit on the Bank of Spain could have higher costs. As Sergio had pointed out more than once, to be sure the Bank of Spain worked, relied far too heavily on outsiders following their demands and NIC following protocol. Less than fifty-percent survival, he had said. Well, Martín’s been staring down death for a long time now. 

With that said, he still wants all his calculations and hard work to go off without a hitch. It’s a promise he made Sergio when he consented to his creation to come to life. It’s a promise to the memory of the fallen that they would not lose anyone else. Not when this was to save a child from inhumane torture. Where the Professor had plans, Palermo had contacts. 

With a drink in hand, he finished his beer, ordering another two when he saw the man he had been waiting for. With a gesture of his right hand, he took a step away from the bar, walking to a small table a rear facing window, away from the few locals that darkened the bars doorstep. Martín took his seat, placing the two bottles down in the centre. “Thank you for coming. How was your flight?”
