Well, it is a sad and joyous day. I've been back and forth with a nice, retired gentleman from nearby who wanted to get some peafowl. He made it out today and took home two pairs; a pair of purple BS from Polaris and then, to my sadness but also happiness, Bismuth and Citrine.
I'm gonna miss those little shits. It will be more peaceful without them, as Bismuth didn't get along with Stella and Citrine didn't get along with Bug, but I still loved them both a great deal and I'm SO relieved that they were able to go to a home together. They absolutely adore each other. I've been promised update photos as they grow and mature, and the guy is in the process of relocating to a few hundred acres down south where they won't have to deal with harsh Michigan winters, which I'm sure they will appreciate.
I will still probably post some photos of them, as I have some from days I took a bunch of photos I didn't end up posting, but send your well-wishes to them in their new home!
#bismuth#citrine#my pets#peafowl#peacocks#peahens#peachicks 2024#I told him I would be interested if he ever bred them together#as that was the plan here#so maybe their genes will make it back someday#I know i'm supposed to be happy but man#I am crying on this one lads

Kinktober Day 3 - Oviposition ft Dan Heng (Honkai Star Rail)
Soooooooo.... this got out of hand WHEEZE as it always does when it involves dragon eggs. I'm-.... I'm just hopeless atp. Buckle up I'm about to ignore canon and pull a lot of made up shit from thin air for the sake of horny, lmaoooo. Lovingly dedicated to @moraxsthrone
This is how Tang Tang was made//HIT
At first, you aren’t sure if you heard correctly.
Dan Heng says nothing but pointedly avoids your gaze with a healthy blush on his cheeks.
“Did you say, uh… maybe I misheard but-” You start.
“Eggs.” Dan Heng repeats. “Dragon eggs, much smaller, of course, but they… could be viable…”
“... Eggs.” You say with a blink.
Dan Heng sighs. “Yes.” And turns around to stare and interact with a few screens. “According to some ancient records it seems, those who have fully realized their potential as draconic Vidhyadara and manifest the dragon-like characteristics and behaviors, could, in theory, be able to pass on genes and reproduce like our reptile counterparts.”
He is still not looking at you. Scrolling mindlessly through windows of text and opening and closing tabs. He’s nervous, you know it.
“Children.” You blurt.
“Yes, I… it’s understandable if you have reservations. There is time to consider, I don’t want you to feel obligated to anything or…”
There’s a bit of hope in his voice, your heart warms up and flutters. Children. It’s been such an accepted impossibility in your relationship. You’ve entertained the idea of adoption someday. Now there could be a chance?
You just never imagined it would involve getting railed and apparently pumped full of-
You inhale, close your eyes, and decide to speak before you think too much about it. “Alright, but you have a lot to explain.”
------------------
And so, he explains. In excruciating detail.
Dan Heng seems to be pondering aloud just as much as he is trying to explain the whole process. All an educated guess, though, as he puts it. You’re working with estimations and are not sure how to feel about that but he’s put an incredible amount of research into it all and that, at least, soothes you.
Over the years you’ve seen Dan Hang in many different ways and dealt with your fair share of… interesting Vidyadhara traits. Mates? Good. Funky dragon anatomy? Very good. Being protective and territorial over you? Yes. But eggs… will definitely be new.
Your back hits the mattress and you shiver nervously, only in your underwear. Dan Heng kisses you softly, his hand cupping your cheek. Like this his eyes have an almost ethereal glow and his long dark hair is unbound falling down his back. Teal horns crown his head, and though they aren’t new you can’t help but be amazed by them every time.
“How do you feel? Are you sure about this?” He asks tenderly.
You’re trying hard not to think too much about your previous discussions, sneaking a glance at his underwear out of the corner of your eye, or more accurately, at the large bulge in it.
You lick your lips nervously and nod “Yeah… yeah, sure.”
He sighs and smooths a hand along your shoulder. “If you have changed your mind-”
“No, no! I haven’t I promise I just… I’m nervous, there’s a lot to consider and…” You stare at him for a moment and remember, he is walking this path with you, just as lost and nervous. “I love you.” You smile reassuringly. “I love you so much. I want this.”
His breath comes out in a woosh and he leans forward again to kiss you.
It’s passionate, demanding, his tongue tangles with yours and explores your mouth and you groan, your body melting under him, hands roaming each other’s bodies. You see his teal dragon tail manifesting, swaying about excitedly before curling around your ankle possessively.
He massages your breast, pinching a nipple between his fingers to bring it to a stiff peak, you whine and arch your back, he takes the chance to make short work of your bra and toss it somewhere along the dark room before your arms curl around his neck once more to pull him down into another kiss.
His hips buck into yours and he moans. Even through the fabric you can already tell this time something is different.
And honestly you can’t wait.
Your fingers hook at the edge of his underwear, teasing, and start to pull down, Dan Heng groans and helps you discard his last piece of clothing, your panties quickly joining after and this is it. You stare.
Not just his gorgeous, thick cock you’ve come to love so much but two. Two.
One is relatively normal, his shape and girth familiar despite the clear draconic hue from his dark uncut tip and soft ridges. The other slightly larger, with a pointier tip, not as strange as Dan Heng had made it out to be. The Vidyadhara had been all shy and hesitant about it, both out of embarrassment and perhaps because he was afraid it might scare you off.
Instead, desire pools between your legs. Oh, how you want.
“A-Alright, so first I should-!!” Any other words are lost in a strangled moan as you reach out and wrap your hand around the unfamiliar length. It’s hot in your palm, thick and firm. Dan Heng hisses as you tentatively jerk it a bit, squeezing around the tip, it’s spade-shaped and neatly tapered, perfect for reaching deep and pressing on just the right spots.
Or so you assume, won’t know until you try.
He bucks into your hand with a grunt and you stare fascinated at the leaking tip, before either of you can process it, you dark forward and lap at it. “Hng!” He tosses his head back and his hand flies to grip at your hair.
It tastes salty, slightly more viscous and you can’t get enough of it, you gingerly kiss at the tip and mouth at it before closing your lips around the crown, it’s thick in your mouth, your hand teasing the rest of it.
You stare up at Dan Heng, his eyes shut tight, brow furrowed and face flushed all the way to the tips of his pointy ears, he’s tense and shivering, clearly holding back from rutting into the wet warmth of your throat.
So, you attempt to take him deeper, moaning for good measure so the vibrations drive him insane, and you’re rewarded with more pleasured noises that make your pussy clench.
“My love… w-wait-” He gasps, you run your tongue along the underside of his length. “Fuck-!” Ohhh he’s losing his composure, his grip on your hair tightening. When your other hand curls around his unattended cock, thumb swirling at the tip, he snaps. “Enough.”
You pull off with a wet pop, licking your lips and catching your breath.
Dan Heng pushes you back with a hand and you follow easily, back hitting the mattress and spreading your legs eagerly for him to slot in. He reaches for a pillow and places it under your hips, raising the slightly, his tail now curls around your thigh.
Your stares cross, love and lust mixing.
“Are you ready?” He asks, his thumb rubbing over your entrance, finding you dripping wet.
“Yes, Aeons, yes…”
He leans down to kiss you again, tender this time, there’s a sense of intimacy that warms you. How you love this man, this dragon. The way he dotes over you, the way he breathes in your scent and kisses you and holds you close, tender.
He sinks two fingers inside you and you whimper into the kiss. He works you open slowly, reverent, pulling in and out, stretching them a bit and adding a third. You’re squirming, desperate and worked up. Nails dragging on his back and shoulders. “Dan Heng please…”
He kisses at your neck, nips the skin there with his fangs. “Be patient, I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t. Please, just put it in. Breed me.”
He stops, you hear a little growl, ragged breath on your collarbone, and suddenly the fingers are gone. You barely have time to miss them when that thick pointy cockhead is pressing against you.
Then it sinks in, the glide slow and gentle with Dan Heng’s careful movements.
And oh, oh- you feel him stretch you. Thick and long and so, so hot. It spears you open in the most delicious way, rubbing at your insides as he pulls out ever so slightly before fucking in deeper with slow rolls of his hips.
You toss your head back and moan. You feel so full, deliciously complete. The draconic cock settling deep inside as Dan Heng bottoms out, his balls flush against your taint and the second cock dribbling precum everywhere on your thigh and navel.
You take a moment or two to settle, both of you, and then he starts moving. Dan Heng pulls back and rolls into you languidly, slow and deep, testing the waters.
“So good for me… so warm and… thigh-!” He murmurs against your skin, pressing kisses anywhere he can reach. You keen, arching off the mattress and meeting his every thrust.
The air is thick and heavy, he presses as close as he can against you, your legs lock behind his back as he gradually speeds up. Your thoughts are fuzzy, blissed-out. The room is a cacophony of moans and whimpers and the sound of skin on skin.
“I need- please- Dan Heng-!!”
The drag of his cock sets you alight, every nerve stimulated, pleasure building and building…
“I’m close” He rasps out. You’re about to tell him to come deep inside as he always does and then you remember.
“Oh.”
Dan Heng’s grip tightens in the sheets, his thrusts slow to a crawl and you suddenly feel a subtle bulge pressing against your hole. “T-that’s-” You say breathlessly.
An egg.
He presses his forehead against yours and rolls his hips a little more insistent, trying to ease it in “Careful now…relax for me.”
You’re trying but the pressure is intense and you’re already so full of thick cock. How can you take more? You whimper.
“I’m-”
“You can do it.”
A dragon egg, a little dragon baby. A tiny piece of you and him joining to create something wonderful. This is why you’re doing this.
“Almost there” His voice is a soothing balm, con contradictory to the way he ruts into you, pushing your limits. But the way his teal eyes almost glow, pupils pulled to slits, flushed and panting but so determined, staring at you with so much love. You bite your lip and cant your hips, muffling your cries as his cock slips deeper with every thrust.
It feels like an eternity when the ovipositor slips back all the way inside, and you cry out.
Dan Heng’s thumb traces your clit and while he can’t really pull out, he fucks into you with a nice deep grind.
“Dan Heng-!” You whisper, nothing more than a debauched breathless mess. “Dan Heng, Dan Heng, Dan Heng…”
The coil in your gut snaps and you come with a scream, tears springing to your eyes and your walls fluttering around his length, easing the egg deep inside you. He fucks a few more thrusts into you and then makes a noise you never heard from him before, a sort of choked growl.
Then, he stills.
You spend a few moments catching your breath and Dan Heng nuzzles into you, kissing away your tears as you lie a full, overstimulated, flushed mess.
“Bear with me just a little longer.” He pants, pulling back a a little to hover over you. You groan, having almost forgotten about this particular step and the promise of his other cock, the one more familiar to you.
He eases the ovipositor out of you slowly. The egg vaguely feeling heavy and round in your womb. You can’t think straight as Dan Heng shifts against you, his other cock resting against your entrance before easily sinking in, smaller than the first, bottoming out immediately.
You sigh.
“I… I won’t last long.” He admits.
“Breed me.” You repeat. “Our egg will take.”
It seems like the right incentive as he starts fucking into you in a frenzied pace, pressing and pulling at your insides. You sob and squirm, uselessly trying to match his rhythm. He growls, groans and tips over surprisingly quickly, filling you up with sticky cum.
Your body sags, spent, aching, full, and so utterly satisfied. He stays lodged in deep and doesn’t move. You both take a moment to come down from the intense high.
Dan Heng slides a hand along your tummy, smoothing the skin there and feeling the very small subtle bulge there. “Mine. All mine… both of you.” He claims.
You place your hand on his and smile weakly.
He finally pulls out, making you groan at the emptiness, and maneuvers you both onto your sides, spooning you. He brushes at your hair and kisses the back of your neck, whispering sweet nothings “You did so well. I love you.” His hand rests on the soft curve of your stomach. The barest signs of a bump that could be easily missed. “Rest.”
You sigh deeply, content. “Love you too…” Comes out slightly slurred. And so, you rest.

give me more than just butterflies. jean x reader
summary: you and Jean have been dating for a few months now and you’re thinking about how good a dad he would be someday. maybe, just maybe… title is from "juno" by sabrina carpenter.
tags: jean x fem!reader, mentions of pregnancy, lots of fluff, oral (m and f receiving), pet names (babe and baby), slight breeding/pregnancy kink, jean and reader are in their late 20s here
minors and ageless DNI! 18+ only, please.
Dating Jean Kirstein made you feel like you'd won the lottery.
Obviously, he was an absolute dreamboat looks-wise. You loved his tall, muscular build, soft ash-brown hair and light brown eyes, not to mention a smile that could rival the sun in wattage. In another life, he could make a killing as an Abercrombie model.
However, it's his personality that really made you fall for him. He's impossibly sweet and kind yet has a strong sarcastic streak you love. He adores you, of course, but also loves his friends (even though Sasha and Connie in particular drive him nuts sometimes) and would do anything for his mama. Of course Jean wasn't perfect; he had his flaws, but when it comes to boyfriends, you couldn't see how you could do any better.
You and Jean had been dating for almost a year now. You'd met him through Hinge; dating apps had always seemed a bit scary to you, but one of your best friends convinced you to put yourself out there. You were charmed by his witty answers to his profile prompts and very attracted to his pictures. It turned out that he was utterly charming even through text, and after one date at a local Italian restaurant Jean adored, you were absolutely smitten (and the feeling was mutual). The two of you have been dating for nine months now, in absolute bliss.
Life was good right now, but your mind couldn't help drifting to thoughts of the future, especially after you and Jean went to see his best friend Marco's new baby boy. Callum was an absolute cutie, with his dad's dark brown hair and nose but his mom's bright blue eyes.
"Hey babe, could you get a pic of me with Cal?" Jean asked. He had Callum perfectly cradled in his arms and you just about melted at the sight. Jean looked so at peace holding the baby, like this was second nature to him. You quickly took your phone out of your pocket and took a candid snap of your boyfriend lovingly gazing at the baby, then another one where he looked directly at the camera, smiling softly.
Jean passed Callum back to Marco's wife Adelaide, then peeked over your shoulder to see the photos you took. "These are perfect," he said, beaming. "Thanks, baby."
Marco and Adelaide hurried over to see the photos and "aww"ed over them, making Jean's cheeks flush with pink. "It's amazing how much the guy who used to shotgun whipped cream in high school looks like a dad here," Marco joked.
You snickered, but after the laughter subsided, you couldn't help but agree with Marco. Jean looked so comfortable with Callum; if anyone didn't know any better, they'd think Jean was posing with his own son.
The image of Jean holding Marco's son stayed in your mind for days after that visit. You'd been on the fence about having kids, not sure if you wanted to go through the whole ordeal of pregnancy or if you'd even make a halfway-decent mother. But seeing Jean cradling a baby had stirred a desire in you. Maybe having a kid wouldn't be so bad...especially if it was with Jean.
You were nowhere near ready to have a kid right now, but the idea of having a baby with Jean somewhere down the line was sounding more and more appealing. Jean was pretty much the hottest person alive, and it would be cool if some baby was lucky enough to get some of his genes. The only issue was actually telling your desired baby daddy. What if he got scared off by you already dreaming of having kids with him? You hadn't even been together for a year yet. You decided to squash that dream of yours for the moment, not wanting to freak him out.
You were in bliss. Jean had come over to watch Howl's Moving Castle ("It's a crime that you haven't seen it!" you insisted), but as soon as the credits started rolling, he'd pulled you onto his lap and pressed soft, slow kisses to your neck. You sighed, happily, grinding yourself against Jean and making him gasp.
"Babe, watch it," he spoke in a strained voice. "If you keep doing that, I'm gonna go crazy, and I don't think I have a condom with me."
You were so horny you couldn't think straight. "I don't care, you can finish inside me," you blurted out.
Jean flushed bright red, saying your name with a gasp. "Um, while I would love to do that, I'm not tryin' to get you pregnant right now. I know you're on the pill, but better safe than sorry, you know?"
Jean's words tugged at your heartstrings. What a man! He could be so anxious when it came to sex at times, but you knew it was because he deeply cared for you and wanted to make sure you were happy and safe. And he was right; this would not be the right time to have a baby.
Your hidden thought popped back into your head. Fuck it, why not just tell him? He'd given you the perfect opening. "I appreciate that, Jean. But one day I do want to have kids with you. I don't know when, but I've been thinking about this for a while, and I want you to make me a mom."
When Jean stayed silent for a few moments, you got nervous. Then his eyes started to well up with tears. "Babe, are - are you sure this is what you want? I mean, I'm so down for this, but I know when we first started dating, you were on the fence about children."
You were so relieved that your irrational fears about Jean's reaction hadn't played out. "Yes, I'm sure. I've been sure ever since that day two weeks ago when we met Marco's baby and I took those pictures of you holding him," you answered, your voice shaking with emotion. "I know we haven't even been together a year yet and maybe this is too soon to be talking about this but - I want it. A house and a family, with you."
Jean wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer to him, and peppered your face with kisses. "Babe, I love you so much. I wouldn't want to start a family with anyone else."
"Well I should certainly hope not," you joked, needing to lighten up the moment a little bit. Jean laughed before burying his face into the side of your neck and nuzzling you.
It was a tender moment, interrupted by a particular something poking you in the side. "Jean. Did you really get hard because I told you I want to have your babies one day?" You couldn't help but giggle.
Jean lifted his head from your neck, looking sheepish. "I'm sorry babe. I just pictured you being pregnant and...I guess I got excited."
You lightly punched your boyfriend in the arm, pretending to be scandalized. "Jean Kirstein, you are a pervert!" You couldn't lie that it was a little bit hot that he would still find your pregnant body desirable, to be honest.
Jean smirked at you. "Can't help it. You're gonna be the hottest mom in the neighborhood, baby."
Zing. Jean's words went straight to your core. You lifted yourself off of his lap and sank down to your knees on the floor, looking for permission before you unbuttoned your boyfriend's pants.
"Babe, what are you doing?" he questioned with a chuckle, though there was a dark glint in his eye.
"Well, I was thinking, if we can't have sex right now, we can still do...other stuff. And I figured I’d help take care of your little problem.” You flashed him a coy smile.
Jean groaned before unbuttoning his pants and letting you take his length into your mouth. He moaned your name, looking like he was trying not to bust a nut right then and there.
"What did I do to deserve someone as amazing as you?" Jean asked, his eyes shut with pleasure as you sucked him off and fondled his balls. You giggled before pulling your mouth off of him and kissed the tip of his dick, causing Jean to let out a guttural growl.
Before you could return to your blowjob, Jean had joined you on the floor, capturing your lips in a deep kiss before smooching his way down your body.
It was your turn to ask, "Babe, what are you doing?" Even though you knew damn well what was about to happen, and your body tingled with an excited energy.
"It's only fair that I return the favor, babe," Jean said, casually pulling your underwear to the side before diving in like a starving man.
Yep, you'd definitely won the lottery with Jean Kirstein. And you had a feeling that things would get even better once the two of you were actually ready to try for a baby.

I have finally gotten Laurance's character sheet to a point where I'm actually okay with the result. I'll probably make some edits later. Character notes and lore undercut also content warning for general shadow knight stuff
Feel free to suggest the next character to get a character sheet!
I was aiming for a swimmers or acrobatic type of build for him so I tried to give him wider shoulders. I'm going to be basing all of the guard characters after some kind of sports athlete so feel free to give suggestions for future guards like Katelyn or Dante
In my rewrite Laurance was nearly torn in half (yikes) in the Nether and Sasha had to stitch him back together. He didn't fully die but his heart stopped for almost a minute before Sasha restarted it. Hence he got turned into a Shadow Knight although a lot more human than most
Laurance is missing part of his leg in my rewrite as well as being partially blind in one eye and this is from Ungrth's rescue mission, which sidenote I'm very tempted to mix wyverns and phoenixes together in my rewrite so that Laurance still loses his friend but is comforted by the fact that he'll be back someday.
His leg prosthetic is actually part of his shadow knight form and as a result he can get quite tired if he's on his feet all day. Dante and Garroth commissioned Kenmur to create a decent prosthetic for Laurance but the group disappears before Kenmur can finish it. Laurance uses a wooden crutch when he gets too tired or has a day off. It's quite well made and carved with a wyvern script spell for steady balance. It used to be Jon's but Hayden gifted it to him when he left Meteli for good. (Also sidenote I'm making Jon and Hayden married in my rewrite just because I think it would be good storytelling)
Laurance has always been clumsy but surprisingly enough his balance only suffered a little when adjusting to his new leg, and he's pretty good at adjusting to the vison loss. He will however sometimes be an idiot while exploring and that's why half the time he ends up in caves or old witches hideouts when he's exploring
Laurance's natural hair color was that nice brown we all know and maybe love and in my rewrite he still dyes it to match Cadenza however becoming a shadow knight kinda mess with his hair and now when it reaches a certain point it kinda sorta just turns orange and while Laurance may be a flirt he doesn't actually care that much about his apparence, as long as he's in good shape health wise he doesn't care, so his hair is left long.
Laurance's shadow knight armor is actually quite different from a lot of other shadow knights as he's technically still living. Shadow knights that are fueled by intense anger like Zenix or were turned when they were still living have a lava like substance glowing in the cracks of their armor. Shadow knights like Sasha, Vylad or Gene on the other hand have "dead" armor that is just rock and maybe a few gemstones. Becoming a full shadow knight takes either your memories or a part of your soul and unless Shad gives an individual that piece back or they are too filled with rage their armor is dead.
His normal guard armor is a mix of nether metals and draconic steel, Aphelia got it from Zoey and gifted it to Laurance when he was sworn in as a knight of Phoenix Drop. It has an extremely high melting point so Laurance can hid his leg if he wants too or he needs to for missions but often times in Phoenix Drop he doesn't bother unless it's cold or raining or Phoenix Drop is on high alert. The leg produces some heat enough to singe fabrics but isn't a fire hazard unless Laurance wants it to be
Laurance used to have a lot of keepsakes and jewelry but they were lost in the Nether. but you can see on the casual outfit that Cadenza has been sending him new rings :)
His hair does glow in Shadow Knight form and yes he has been used as a nightlight/ light source before but on the bright side he got the codename firefly so it's not a total loss. also his teeth are stronger but not sharper as only some shadow knights get fangs and it's seemingly random
I imagine him to be almost 23 and around 6'2 but only because he has a habit of only walking on the tips of his toes as Cadenza made him take the same dance tutor their dads hired for her. In reality he's like 6 ft on a good day.

HEARTLESS 💔 - PART SIXTEEN
Agent Whiskey (Jack Daniels) x f!reader
Summary: what happens when you break the cowboy hat rule? You and Jack finally spend much needed time together
(This is the sixth chapter of my HEARTLESS 💔 series)
• PART ONE TO FIFTEEN ON MY MASTERLIST
Warnings: fluff, romance, mentions of smut, teasing, dirty talk, making out, dry humping, sort of breeding kink, a little bit of lactation kink, thigh riding, smut (oral sex f!receiving, unprotected piv), mom!reader
A/N: I know we didn't have the cowboy last week and that made us all very sad, but personally, I think it was worth the wait, I hope you enjoyed it 🥰
5.9k words
The cowboy's heart beat faster and faster, his hands getting slightly sweaty to hold you tight against him, at the same time your words ran through his mind. You'd said yes, to marry him someday, to be his wife, to build a family with you. He couldn't even believe how happy and lucky he was.
You'd broken the cowboy hat rule on purpose, to symbolize how ready you were to be with him, of course he was excited about the sexual part, but it went further beyond that, it was about you and him and Wyatt and hopefully the kids you would have it in the future, about the chance he got from you. Jack was in a turmoil of feelings, only that this time they were good, positive feelings. The fear, the pain, the sadness were gone, ahead of him was just the happiness of having a family he wished for and craved through his entire life.
He looked down at you, wearing his hat and with a happy smile on your face, effortlessly beautiful, giggling at his touch as well as Wyatt who happily ran all over the place. For one split second Jack was sure he'd died on a mission and was sent to heaven, because that was his heaven: his family. But the kiss you placed on his lips was more than real, no heavenly fantasy would be able to reproduce the real deal. He knew those lips, he loved them, how soft they were, how good they tasted and how bad they could make a grown man cry.
You on the other hand, couldn't be happier about your cowboy and you; perhaps you had just low-key said yes to his proposal, but this time the consideration of marrying him didn't seem to be so scary, you would have to sit down with him and discuss things through, plan at least a couple of things for the future and sort out small details from your lives together, for example if you and Wyatt would permanently move onto the ranch and find a school for your son, for instance. But at that moment everything could wait, because the happiness you both were feeling was just too good, it wasn't like the old times with him - very often you had the habit of comparing situations - but instead, it was a new kind of happiness, the one you shared with your family. Even your son could sense how happy his mommy and daddy were, Wyatt had been having the happiest days of his life, but he was a sensitive boy and could tell when things were wrong, however, not this time, as he saw how his daddy held you tight and you giggled at him. He watched as you took his dad's hat and put it on your own head, how you stroked his cheek and kissed his lips, even if Wyatt thought those kisses were icky, it was cool to have his parents so united, maybe they could even become a big family, where the mommies lived with the daddies and their kids, just like he saw in the cartoons.
"Can I play in the inflatables, mommy?!" Your son suddenly interrupted your kiss, making you break contact with Jack and blush slightly to realize your son had been watching you two, of course he gave you the sweetest and most heartwarming puppy eyes you'd ever seen - courtesy of the Daniels' genes that ran in the family - and there was no way in the world you could say no to that little face. Clearing your throat, you nodded, chuckling at how he simply ran off, so excitedly to play some more. You turned your attention back to your cowboy, staring at him and taking in his handsome face. He'd gotten a little older with time, just like you had, but he was so handsome it made you go weak. Your hand ran through the side of his head, fingers burying into his fluffy hair, and running through it, before going a little south and stroking his cheek. Neither of you said a word, you didn't have to at that moment, because it was just you and him. The cowboy had a tight grip around you, he didn't let go of you for his dear life, you knew how much strength those hands carried and it was both assuring and arousing to know you were trapped in between them. Your body was pressed against his, he was always warm and if you rested your head against his chest, you could hear his heart beating. Perhaps it'd been the experience at the cemetery, or how you'd learned about his self-destructive behavior, but you were taken by a sudden fear of losing him. Your heart shattered just to imagine you could've lost him on different occasions and you looked down, letting out a sob before you could even realize it.
"Hey… what's wrong, sugar?" His voice was a soft purr, just as his touch: his fingers on your chin lifting your head up and making you look into his eyes. Jack Daniels didn't want to see his woman cry, whatever reason it was, he would do everything in his willpower to prevent that from happening. Now that you had said yes to him, that he would make you his wife, he wanted to shield you from anything bad in the world. He was terrified of losing another family in the same way, he would definitely have no reasons to keep going if that ever happened, so it was a scenario he didn't even like to think of.
"I-I'm sorry Jack… I got a little emotional. I just don't want to lose you, at all" you sniffed and dried your tears "I want our family to be complete, and I would like for you to also be careful when you go on your missions…" and you also wanted to tell him not to ever lose hope again, but you couldn't; his supposedly suicide attempts had been confided into you by Helen, you couldn't do that to her, at the same time you also didn't want your cowboy to be ashamed of what happened.
"Don't worry, princess… I'll take good care of myself because there ain't no way in hell I'll leave my family waiting for me back home" he winked at you and leaned in again, kissing your lips with a groan at the feeling of you tugging his hair.
Jack smiled between the kisses, his hand going towards your legs as the other sustained your back and he soon lifted you up, holding you in bridal style as you squealed surprised, wrapping your arms around his neck so you wouldn't lose balance
"What are you doing, Jack?!" You asked, feeling excited but also a little nervous. You had no idea what crossed your cowboy's mind, but you hoped he didn't have any crazy ideas, but he only chuckled and walked towards the inflatables, the two of you could see your son bouncing around, having so much fun but the moment he noticed the two of you, he frowned softly "mommy? What happened daddy?" He seemed puzzled to why his daddy was carrying his mommy, maybe she got hurt? But Wyatt didn't want to see his mommy hurt.
"Awe you huwt mommy?"
"Mommy ain't hurt, kid, but she was a little upset so I'm guessing she should jump a little and have some fun, don't you think?" Whiskey winked at his son, who clapped his little hands excitedly and opened space for Jack to get inside the bounce house, so thrilled to have his parents to play with him.
He finally put you down but Wyatt held your hand tight "jump mommy!!! Play with me!"
Perhaps you were still very emotional, but just the fact you saw your son's happiness all over his gorgeous face, the way his bright innocent eyes lit up with excitement at your presence melted your heart and made you tear up. You nodded at him and pulled him for a tight hug "of course my love, mommy and daddy will play with you my angel" you said taking Jack's hand into yours and the three of you bounced together, slowly at first, but increasing the speed as Wyatt had more and more fun. If someone ever told you one day you'd be playing in a bounce house with your son and his father after you jumped into his arms and told him that yes, you were willing to marry him, you'd have laughed your ass off, thinking they were just crazy to make up the most absurd story but there you were, enjoying every single small detail you could. Your future husband and your son. Butterflies in your stomach swirled inside every time you thought of it: marrying Jack. You wanted it, but you were also scared. The rational side of you wanted to take things slow and wait, but the other part of you, the one driven by your heart, that barely could contain your feelings, just wanted your happy ending as soon as possible.
Tiredly sitting down, Wyatt joined you, getting comfortable on your lap and sighing happily, while Jack joined the two of you and pulled you closer. You three caught your breaths, in a comfortable silence that said a lot about how happy you were at that moment. You felt Whiskey's hand on your hair, tucking a strand of it behind your ear in such affectionate way, he had always been careful with it, he'd always loved it, the way it felt under his touch, always soft and smooth, the smell of it, burying his face into it so he could have a peaceful night of sleep. He moved some of it away from your neck, leaning in and pecking it, sending goosebumps all over your skin at the sudden contact. He eyes his son and smirked at how distracted his little boy was, so he kissed your neck again, more intensely this time, his teeth nibbling it at the same time you bit your bottom lip so you wouldn't moan out loud in a fucking inflatable toy.
"Better catch your breath, sugar, you'll be doing a lot of bouncing tonight…" he whispered against your ear loud enough so only you would hear it. Smirking at you with a dumb smile while picking up his stetson that had fallen while you were all playing and putting it back on. You'd broken the cowboy hat rule and it was about time you rode your cowboy. Yet, his words sent a fire sensation down your core, one that unabled you from thinking and the only thing you could mumbled was your cowboy's name. He chuckled and kissed your neck a third time, his mustache tickling your skin at the same time he placed his warm hand on your thigh, stroking it softly and watching how affected you were by his simplest touch.
"I-I think it's time for us to get inside, daddy will help you open your presents and mommy will make us a yummy dessert, what do you say?" You ran your fingers through your son's hair, getting your shit back together and wanting to get away from that bounce house as soon as possible. Jack's touches were enough to set you on fire and you needed to step away from him for a little while so you could catch your breath and act normal in front of your son, besides, you'd picked a bunch of fresh peaches and you wanted to prepare your cowboy his favorite pie, it would always make him happy when you did so and you just wanted to show him how important he was for you.
There was also the fact you knew your son always behaved and obeyed his dad, which meant that if Jack told him it was enough bouncing for the day, he wouldn't whine or try his dirty trick of giving you the sweetest and saddest puppy eyes seen by the human race. Whiskey could keep Wyatt entertained inside with opening his presents and playing and hopefully he would be tired in a matter of time, being safely tucked into bed and giving his mommy and daddy some much needed alone time. Jack nodded at Wyatt, who pouted at first but agreed on exiting after the promises of opening his presents. As the southern gentleman he was, your cowboy helped your son hop off the toy and then helped you, smirking up and down at your body. You knew that grin, that heavy breathing and how he stood at the entrance, stopping you from getting out, holding you and pressing you down against the bouncing floor, his lips once more teasing your skin, kissing up and down your throat, his mustache leaving soft burns all over you. You bit your lips, looking into his eyes, his brown ones shooting you a burning gaze; you knew him, his hunger for you, it was so intense he could take you right there, but you also knew how patient your cowboy could be when it came to teasing his soft little prey. His heavy breathing against your chest now, as he pulled the fabric of your dress down just enough to expose your cleavage, spreading ghostly kisses all over it, his teeth nibbling you gently at first, at the same time you let out a soft whimper.
"Jack, you're teasing me…" you whined as your cowboy chuckled, his hands going to the hem of your pretty dress, lifting it up, exposing your thighs for his delight.
"You want more, sugar? I bet you missed your cowboy, didn't ya?" He saw as you nodded "you've been so dirty for breaking the cowboy hat rule, how about I fuck you here? You don't even need help to bounce on my cock, would you like that, sweetheart? Being pounded like a little slut in an inflatable toy? Sounds like you're a whore for my cock, are you, baby girl?"
"Mm yes, cowboy" you bit your lips, squealing as his lips went for your stomach, pecking it all his way down the hem of your panties. You instinctively parted your legs for Jack, feeling his hands going under your thighs, going up until your round ass, squeezing and rubbing your cheeks. He loved the pleasure little sounds that came out of your filthy lovely mouth. He knew what you were capable of doing with his cock, but he needed to be patient. If he'd waited until that moment to savory you, he wouldn't rush things up now, so he ran his hands to your sides entwining his fingers on the sides of your panties, pulling them down and not breaking eye contact with you at all.
"What are you doing, Jack?" You asked him, feeling your cunt clenching at nothing, being so turned on at the simplest touch; no man could ever do that to you but your cowboy. He knew you entirely, knowing just how to press your buttons and play you like his toy.
He looked down at your naked pussy and it took him all of his willpower not to touch you right there and then, but he had further plans for you. Taking your panties off he chuckled at you, showing you the wet spot on the thin cloth and smirked "barely touched ya and you're already wet for me, angel… now let's see if you're still as sweet as I remember" the cowboy whispered his words hiding his obscene intentions at the same time he took your panties to his face, licking the puddle of your wetness, groaning at the taste before shoving your delicate piece of lingerie into his back pocket.
"You're still the sweetest cunt I've ever tasted, no wonder you're my sugar" he placed his hands on his waist and watched as you pulled your dress down and looked at him in a mix of embarrassment and desire. You pulled Jack by the shoulders, kissing him as deeply and intensely as you wanted, tasting yourself briefly on his lips, you felt you could stay there forever, if it weren't for Wyatt's voice interrupting you.
"Mommy!!! Daddy!!! We need to open the pwesents!" He shouted excitedly from the front door and you managed to cover yourself even more.
"Coming, cowboy!!!" Jack shouted back and waved at his son, who giggled and ran back inside. Then, he extended his hand towards you, helping you up but snapping your hand away from his back pocket
"They're mine now, sugar, so you better behave as your sweet cunt is now exposed for me" he winked at you and made you blush softly.
•••
"What awe you doing, mommy?" Wyatt tilted his head curiously as he stood next to you, watching your every move attentively, loving the smell of whatever mysterious dessert you were making and warming your heart at the fact your son was definitely just like his daddy: crazy about his peach pie.
"I'm making grandma Daniels recipe, honey: peach pie… your daddy used to love this dessert when he was little like you, his grandma would make it for him almost every week, and when mommy and daddy lived together, I also used to prepare it for him and he loved it!" You explained to your son, loving how surprised and happy he got at that information. While Jack was in the living room, picking up the shredded pieces of colorful paper that once gift-wrapped Wyatt's birthday presents. Since your cowboy took care of your son, you went to the kitchen to prepare his pie, being too agitated to focus on anything or nothing at all, it didn't matter if you wanted to actually distract yourself or not: all you could think of was Jack Daniels.
The way he had barely touched you and yet your whole body was set on fire, or the simple anticipation for the moment you would share in a little while, after all those years apart from each other, couldn't contain the lust you were feeling for that man. There was no denying you couldn't resist to him, he was intoxicating, poisonous even, the kind of touch to linger on you and make your skin burn at the memory, even if you'd freshened up and changed to another cute and tempting summer dress - without panties, respecting your cowboy wishes - you could still feel the warm slick pooling between your folds each time you moved. After going over all the amazing presents your son got, you decided to hide away in the kitchen hoping you'd be able to think of something else, but it was no use: your memory took you back to the bounce house.
Wyatt's presence helped you snap away from your wet daydreams as you explained to him all about the new sweet you were making, he was very curious and his tummy was very happy to know he would be trying that delicious treat soon. You had never eaten peach pie again, not after you and Jack broke up, it was one the small little things that reminded you of him and it made everything even more painful, but now you had no reason to dwell into that puddle of sadness any longer, you and the cowboy were back together, your family was happily united and you were so ready to be railed by your cowboy until sunlight.
Only when your son fell asleep though.
And by the excited way he was chatting and asking questions, it seemed it would still take a while; you chuckled to yourself at the situation, Jack had insisted on having another child and yet you two couldn't even handle one. It was one of those sweet ironies of life and you wouldn't trade that for anything in the world.
"I thought you said you'd climb upstairs and change into your new cow PJs so you would show mommy you're a big boy now?" Whiskey folded his arm and stared at Wyatt with a serious expression only to soften up and open his arms to his son, who giggled and ran to his daddy's embrace. Someone had gifted your son a new pair of cow themed pajamas and he was really excited to put it on, wanting you to see he could do it on his own. Your heart clenched at pride of seeing your son was growing up and becoming an independent little child and also at the fact perhaps he was growing up too fast. However, you lost your track of thoughts the moment he disappeared into the second floor running as fast as his little legs allowed him in order to get changed and the cowboy cornered you.
Feeling his presence on your back, he held your hips and pulled your body against his.
"I like this new dress, sugar… aren't ya all fresh and sweet for your cowboy? You know I've been thinking of this sweet pussy the whole night, right? You've been such a filthy little whore, breaking the cowboy hat rule on purpose, and all for what? Leaving me with a hard on? Getting this tight pretty pussy soaked for me?" His filthy words whispered like a prayer into your ears was more than enough reason for you to press your thighs together. The knot of anxiety, anticipation and lust all mixed up together in your lower belly just made you want to ignore everything around and spread your legs so he could take you right there. You were so slippery all he would need to do would be slide into you into one single motion and have his way with you. Never in your life, you thought you would be aching to be Jack Daniels' cum slut again.
He trailed more kisses down your neck towards your shoulder, at the same time he lifted your dress just enough to reveal your named ass cheeks, satisfied to see you didn't have anything on underneath it, exactly the way he liked you. Pressing his crotch against your ass, you finally felt the damage you'd left on your cowboy's pants. He was rock hard, probably had been for a while, and it was pretty satisfying to realize he was as affected by you, as you were by him.
The two of you were a match and no one could state it otherwise.
"Feel it, sugar… this is what you do to me. There ain't no other like you in the world, no other chick would ever be able to make me this hard, no one would ever be as sweet as you are, I can't wait to feel you all over me"
At his words, you grinded against his crotch. The low groan escaping his lips was enough for you to do it again, your naked ass cheeks grinding against his boner, hands tightening the grip on your hips as his own met yours at the same pace, pressing you harder against it so it would apply more pressure. He threw his head back, loving how it felt to be humping you like that, he was throbbing under his pants, seeking relief and hoping he would last a decent amount of time when he finally fucked you.
"Don't forget your cowgirl boots tonight, sugar… you gotta be dressed for riding" he gave your ass one soft slap as unfortunately, it didn't last long as small steps were heard coming down the stairs, so he lowered your dress carefully and sat at the kitchen table, pretending nothing had happened the minute Wyatt walked into the kitchen.
•••
You couldn't even believe it when your son finally closed his little eyes and went straight to dreamland. It seemed it'd taken forever for it to happen. You'd had enough time to finish baking your pie, letting it cool down and only after a glass of warm milk and two bedtime stories, Wyatt finally fell asleep. You told Jack you'd tuck your son into bed, while the cowboy went to his own, you knew he was probably sorting some things out which again, shot another wave of anticipation down your body. It felt kind of ethereal to know you would be sleeping together in a matter of time, but you were so excited and willing to submit yourself whole to your cowboy, and you could bet he was feeling just the same for you. Kissing your son's forehead goodnight, you left his bedroom as quietly as possible and went to your own, wanting to take a look at yourself and make sure you were looking alright for him. You got your cowboy boots and put them on, checking yourself in the mirror, you decided not to put on any lingerie, just your short light dress and your boots would be enough to ride your cowboy. You just brushed your hair a little and went to Jack's room.
Your heart was hammering on your chest, and you felt quite anxious. On the one hand you were going to come back to the pleasure you knew, loved and craved; on the other hand, it was almost like you were as nervous as when you lost your virginity. You would be officially Jack's and he would be yours, much to your happiness, you were about to become one again. You knocked on his door and bit your lips, looking down at your own boots as he opened the door, and you could see in his eyes he had all the Whiskey in him; your sweet Jack was out of the room and entered the dirtiest man you'd ever met: Agent Whiskey.
His leather jacket was gone, but he stood in his full cowboy glory, with his riding boots, tight jeans and stetson on, enough to make your mouth water and you crash your lips against his, feeling the hunger for that man overwhelming your judgment and your senses. He wrapped his arms around you, pulling you into the room and locking the door behind you. His hands went immediately to your ass, squeezing them and dragging a moan from you. Jack chuckled in between kisses and nibbled your bottom lip
"Remember you asked me for a date? I got one for ya, sugar" he winked and took you by the hand, guiding you to the balcony of his room, where a table was sat with two glasses and some of the finest beverages by Statesman. He pulled the chair for you, making sure to use his manners, and earning a sweet smile. That old broken heart of his wasn't that broken anymore, as it filled with love each time more, each time he spent next to you. He sat down, manspreading on his chair, which made you lick your lips, at the sight of his big bulge. He followed your eyes on him straight to his crotch and licked his own lips, smirking
"Guess you don't wanna go on a date, Suger?" You shook your head and he nodded, patting his thigh so you'd sit on it.
It didn't take you seconds to just jump from your seat to his lap, feeling so hot and bothered at the man's body so close to yours.
"I have broken the cowboy hat rule Jack, you gotta do something about it" you teased him, welcoming his lips for another kiss, at the same time his hands played with the straps from your dress, pulling them down and watched as the cloth ran down your perfect chest, exposing your tits for him.
"Look at that, sugar… how beautiful your tits are. I missed them" his thumb ran over your nipple, loving how it hardened under his touch. You were always so responsive to it, it pleased that cowboy to no end. He kissed your throat, sinking his teeth into your skin, not caring if he would leave a trail of hickeys all over it, getting his mouth onto your nipples, licking them gently, one at a time, before suckling on them, you were still as sensitive as he remembered.
"I want them fuller, sugar… I want to see your tits so damn big full of milk… too bad I missed it with our first cowboy, but I'm definitely putting a baby in you very soon…" he mumbled against your nipple before latching onto it and suckling on it once more. You took the stetson off his head, placing it on the table and burying your fingers into his soft hair, tugging at it gently as he took time with your breasts. You parted your legs shifting your weight and sitting on his thigh, lifting your dress up above your waist, your wet, slippery cunt straight against his rough jeans as you loved your hips slowly at first, closing your eyes and enjoying the pleasurable feeling.
His right hand went for your waist, holding you and helping you grind your needy count against his thigh. His jeans were thick and it made your clit so sensitive at the friction, Jack wouldn't leave your nipples, face buried deep between your breasts.
"How are you putting a baby inside if all you do is tease and not fuck me?" You blurted out, the impatience and the need for his cock making its appearance as you needed him. Jack frowned and stopped everything he was doing, holding you by the hips and swatted your ass hard, making you whimper and kissed you deeply, wanting to show you who was in charge there. The cowboy would take care of your dirty mouth and your tight sweet pussy. He broke the kiss and got his hat, placing it on your head. It was finally time for you to ride your cowboy.
•••
The way he got up, pulling you to him and carrying you to the bed as if you weighed nothing, only added more lust to your hopeless case. You needed that man and you would do anything for him in order to fuck you; it would be too easy for him to lay on the bed and just fuck you there, he needed more, he wanted you to ride him, and he was definitely willing to have every inche of your body. Finally stripping you off your summer dress and having you standing in your naked glory in front of him with the exception of your riding boots and your hat, this cock was about to burst his pants. He was painfully hard, but he knew it was worth the wait. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he pulled you closer, admiring every inch of you, he scanned your naked body meticulously as if it was the last time he would ever spot such beauty.
"Don't be shy, sugar" he cooed and kissed your stomach again, resting his head on it briefly and closing his eyes as if he'd said a prayer in gratitude for having his family back. Then, he quickly got rid of his clothes, kicking them out in a sloppy way here and there, before finally lying onto the mattress and relaxing. He pulled you on top of him, seeing you were ready to take his cock inside, but he wanted more than that, so he pulled you closer, towards his chest "ride your cowboy now, sugar, don't hold back though" giving you the order, even if it was in his soft voice. You understood perfectly what he wanted and you were going to give it to him. Getting even closer to his handsome face, you spread your thighs aiming his head between them, and lowered yourself, throwing your head back and letting out a loud and intense moan the moment you felt his devilish tongue against your slit.
He hadn't tasted sweeter sugar than you and he never would, because you were the only one he ever craved and wanted. His tongue explored your delicious cunt, running up and down your slit, going deep into your pussy hole until it finally settled on your hard needy clit. His hands showing you the pace, which you picked up quickly, of course still a little shy in the beginning, but moving as soon as the pleasure build up inside of you. You rode your cowboy's face, his perfect nose brushing against your clit as his perfectly trimmed mustache was a mess because of your wetness, you knew you were too close. It was only the first out of the many times you and Jack would spend together, for the rest of your lives, you reminded yourself. There was no need to try and make it last, you both couldn't wait. He was your honey, your sweetness and your knot was so tight in your lower belly, the moment he told you to let go, you did it without thinking twice; your pussy clenching and making a mess on your cowboy, your clit throbbing and so sensitive and yet, you just gathered the energy you had within and moved to his lap, knowing he couldn't wait any longer. You massaged his cock, you'd missed it his thick length so much, you missed teasing his leaking tip, caressing his heavy balls and making him cum as hard as he made you do the same, but now you didn't need to worry, because that would become your new routine, and you couldn't wait for it.
You held him by the base and sank your slippery cunt down his length, feeling him stretching you up the way no man ever had. When he got as deep as he could, you placed both hands on his chest to look for balance, before moving your hips the way you knew it drove Whiskey crazy. When you relationship began, shortly after you two had met years ago, he had joked he fell in love with you and the way you moved your hips while riding him, and there was some truth behind that; but it wasn't just that, it was everything else. That cowboy had fallen for you at first sight and there was nothing he wanted more than make you his forever. You fastened your pace, riding him and feeling how his cock throbbed inside of you, loving every second of it
"Come on Jack, give it all to me cowboy, it's your turn" you whispered to him, feeling another orgasm approaching and working on it, wanting to cum more, at the same time he finally let go and shot his load inside of it. You could feel every inch of him inside, his thick hot cum going as deep as it could reach and you only collapsed on top of him, resting your head on his chest while you tried catching your breath. Jack tried doing the same, since he was silent and it was quite difficult for that cowboy to ever shut up, it was the proof he was coming down from his bliss as well. You smiled lazily and pecked his chest, seeing how some of his chest hair was already going gray and felt a wave of affection for him.
Your Jack.
Your cowboy.
"I love you" you whispered against his skin, the confession everyone knew but you hadn't dared to say it out loud, not until that moment, but it was necessary, you wanted him to know, to hear about, to feel it, everything about your love. You loved that cowboy with all your heart and he loved you just the same, and from that moment on you two could finally be the family you were meant to be from the start.
____
A/N: I love this cowboy so much 😍😭🤠

Promise to marry me...
Kankuro x reader through the eyes of Gaara, Gaara as matchmaker extraordinaire
“I don’t think I’ll ever get married.”
Kankuro’s voice was muffled but the door had not been fully closed.
Gaara wasn’t one to eavesdrop, especially not in his own home, but the words made him stop.
“What makes you think that?” Hearing your voice surprised him even more.
He knew that you and Kankuro got along, but that a conversation like this at this time? Guilt pooled in his stomach as he realized that he probably shouldn’t be listening. But the far more powerful curiosity kept him where he was.
“Ah, you know. I’m a mess. You can’t tie me down. I love the freedom.”
“Oh, shush.” You tutted at him. “You’re just using empty phrases to cover how you really feel.” There was a moment of silence and Gaara told himself again that he had to move. This was a private conversation and yet, this felt like a conversation Kankuro should have been able to have with him, too.
“Would you want to marry me?” Kankuro’s voice was different now. It had an undertone to it that was raw and vulnerable.
“I’d marry you in a heartbeat.” You told him, your voice filled with conviction, yet the words sounded soft. “But it’s not about that, is it? It doesn’t matter how many people want to marry you. If it won’t make you happy, it won’t make you happy. You don’t have to be married to be happy, you know.”
“Are you happy?”
“Right now? Very. I have a job I like, great friends and I get to travel places without having to fear getting killed the next day. It’s pretty fantastic if you ask me.”
“Don’t you want children? A husband?”
“Maybe someday. But I don’t have any important genes I need to give to the next generation and I quite enjoy being the cool aunt to Shikadai and everyone else. But who knows, maybe when I’m older…”
“What if…” There was a beat of silence and when he spoke again, Gaara could hear Kankuro as he knew him. Filled with mischief and too many ideas.
“What if we made a pact? When we’re thirty and we want to get married but have no one, we’ll marry each other?”
You laugh. “Sure. I’ll hold you to that, old man.”
At that moment, Gaara pulls himself away. He’s heard too much already.
-
Eight years later, just after Shinki’s third anniversary with them, Gaara decides that he has to take matters into his own hands.
Kankuro hardly speaks about the subject of marriage and if he does, he jokes about it.
But Gaara, knowing what he does, can’t stand by and do nothing, when he can see the way Kankuro looks at Shinki or how he pulls back into himself whenever he notices a couple.
As his younger brother, Gaara has no business snooping around in Kankuro’s business.
As his Kazekage he has no right to do so either.
When he does, he convinces himself he’s doing it as a friend.
-
He’s left Shinki with Shikadai and Temari and has convinced Lee that he’s hanging with Naruto and Naruto that he’s training with Lee.
Kankuro had to stay back in Suna and Gaara’s thankful for that as he knocks on your door.
“What brings you here?” You ask, one of the few people in Konoha who don’t burden themselves with unnecessary politeness. “Tea?”
“I’d like that.” He lets his eyes wander. Your apartment is small, just big enough for one and an army of plants. He knows you’re single but he can spot an array of pictures on the bookshelves. Stepping closer he finds them to be you with different friends, the biggest one having been taken in Suna, eight years ago.
He remembers that day when Temari and Kankuro had dragged both you and him out for the sunset.
“How is he?” You ask as you hand him his cup of tea. “Kankuro, I mean? I heard he couldn’t come.”
“Physically, he is well.” He starts and you perk up immediately, watchful eyes focused on him.
“And emotionally?”
“He would not let me live if he knew that I’m telling you this.” He looks back at the picture and steels his resolve. “But he might be thinking about a certain pact you two made eight years ago.”
Your cup slips from your fingers. If not for his sand it would have shattered on the ground.
“How do you know-?”
“I was just walking to my room that day.” He tells you quietly. “I overheard only a little.”
“I-” You stutter and he nods.
“I am not saying that I know what he’s thinking. But I can tell that he’s lonely. And if you wanted to come back to Suna with us in a week… just for a short holiday, maybe, I’d be happy to arrange everything for you.”
“I have to think about that.” Your voice is raspy when you speak, breathless even.
He nods. “Do that. Don’t rush anything. Just know that you’re always welcome.”
-
Gaara is the only one not surprised when you decide that you’ll take an impromptu vacation to Suna. He does not tell Kankuro about it and has Temari swear on Shikadais life that she will not tell him.
There are moments where he wonders if he oversteps.
Moments where he thinks he will regret this - especially Temari’s moods.
But then the train halts in Suna and they can see Kankuro waiting for them.
Gaara steps out first, offering his hand to Shinki who refuses any help.
With one eye on his son and his other on Kankuro he knows the exact moment when Kankuro notices you.
“I think we’ll get some ice cream.” He tells Shinki softly as he steps to the side. “And let those two have some time together.”
No one protests.
-
Gaara is the only one not surprised when one week of vacation turns into two.
He is not surprised when you travel back to Konoha only to pack your belongings.
On your wedding day he thinks about telling Kankuro. What he heard all those years ago, what he did for his brother.
But he doesn’t. He just pulls sleeping Shinki a bit closer to him and watches the couple dance, thinking that if no one has to be lonely, the world will be a better place.

all of BristlingBassoon's Winnix fics - Queen for a Day inspired my "Lewis has done drag" conviction and When we met, you'd never expect this series is just. divine.
@marycontraire's Contact Tracing. of course.
make it up as we go along - Joe drives his cab, Chuck plays Call of Duty, and Babe just wants to pass Biochem; their apartment is like Grand Central at the best of times and that’s without the two possible fugitives they decided to harbor in the guest room; Luz’s life is turning into a terrible romcom about a coffee shop; Harry’s friends are bad at running a bar but they’re trying their best; somebody got punched in the face; and someday there will be a New York Times Bestseller about all of it.
Or, the interlinked soap opera-worthy drama of a group of millennials in Philadelphia, told day by day.
Lie if God is Sleeping - Gene flipped the puzzle over to read the back. “My name is Edward Heffron,” he read aloud. “I killed a man, and now I’m paying the price. 18,000 pieces. It will take approximately seven days to complete me. For experienced players only.”
What the fuck was a curse this nasty doing in a Philadelphia used bookstore?
rivers always reach the sea - my favorite webgott canon era series fic ever
Situation Normal - Winters and Nixon move to the city, reunite with some old friends and find themselves adopting a new, four-legged one.
By Small and Small - Babe wants to keep talking with Gene, but he doesn’t really know what to say. He feels like, in the past, he never would’ve shut up, but now, since Julian, he’s just got nothing. Maybe that’s grieving; Bill says that’s grieving, anyway, but Bill uses the term like a Band-Aid to put over every aspect of Babe that has changed.
Or: The one where Gene is in med school and Babe's messed up over Julian.

Dick Winters and Lewis Nixon billet together at a farmhouse in Holland for a rare few weeks of peace and privacy, while Dick struggles to process his promotion and his time away from Easy Company. Set during the first minutes of Episode 5, "Crossroads."
Cows. Wildflowers. Feelings. Handjobs.
Black Ink on Some Blue Lines - It’s been sixteen years since the letter was written, but it never found its way to the one it was intended for. The thing about secrets is they eat away at you, not all at once but slowly over the years, and you begin to wonder, to play out the what if scenarios in your mind. Instead, David buried it away and pretended like it never existed. He should have killed it, he thinks to himself, not buried it while it still had breath in its lungs.
In which David remembers his evolving relationship with Joe over the course of the war and decides to deliver a letter.
Baby You Can Drive My Car - Everyone has their thing. Perco takes watches. Nix scrounges for liquor. Welsh continues his never-ending quest for anything that will please Kitty Grogan. Even Eugene robs abandoned apothecaries with only a touch of guilt, making off with as many bandages and sulfa packets as he can carry. And then there’s Speirs, sweeping behind them like a shadow and carrying away anything they leave behind that sparkles or shines.
Babe steals cars. He’s getting pretty good at it.
Come in From the Cold - In which Smokey Gordon's coffee shop 'Bastogne' saves lives by lending cutting instruments and offering a steady supply of caffeine and sugary goodness. The shenanigans are just a by-product.
Call me 'sweetheart', Please? by @mariamegale - A not-relationship in the making. (baberoe)
anthroposcene, interrupted - Three months ago, Ray Person was a Philosophy major at Harvard. Now, he's dodging Runners trying to get from St. Louis to Cambridge without a) starving, b) dying by accident or c) offing himself. However, three's company, and it comes in the form of a dog with no bark and a taciturn Marine Staff Sergeant who's last name is Not-Pitt, which has gotta count for something.

Bob: It’s just we’ve sold so few burgers of the day last month.

Bob: I don’t get it. I spend all this time and energy picking out fun ingredients for the burgers of the day. And last month, we had some really good ones. The Stilton of the Night burger. The… If I Had a Pumper-nickel Burger. The Arugulas of Engagement Burger. I mean, come on.

Gene: That’s not genetic, right? I built a bear that one time.
Linda: Yeah. This might not go in the amazing photo album drawer. Maybe that’s why it was in the sad receipt box. Sorry, Bob. Great receipts.

Gene: Which one of us is going to college? Not it

little character descriptions based off of the lom wonderland au i’m writing!!
.
.
.
.
.
SAM ( SAMUEL ) TYLER: a smart copper who knows what he’s doing.. at least, he thinks he does. his day goes from an utter mess to him being full of complete curiosity when he spots a white rabbit with a pocket watch. soon, sam finds himself in a new place, almost like he’s landed on a different planet full of random creatures, endless tea parties, advice-giving caterpillars and even grinning cats. is it all just in his head or is wonderland really real as the caterpillar says?
THE WHITE RABBIT/GENE HUNT: late, late, late! that’s all gene really worries about. gene is one of those kinds of people when it comes to still having his mind, and his head, intact. sometimes he’ll venture out into the ‘real’ world to do little tasks for the queen, or just things for himself. he might look cute and fuzzy, but he’s more like a brash, loud talker. deep down, though, maybe he’s got more of a softer side to himself.. if anyone can even find it. he’s been noted to change forms at will, going from a small rabbit to something that can only be described as ‘human’, as everyone else ‘upstairs’ likes to call it. it’s strange how no one’s asked why he has rabbit ears and a fluffy tail up there..
THE MAD HATTER/CHRIS SKELTON: just a warning, nothing he says makes any sense. the mad hatter doesn’t go by any other names. other than hatter, hattie, mister hatter.. you get the idea, he likes hats. he enjoys obsessing over tea, which he does a LOT. he sees himself as proper, polite, pleasant. y’know, words that sound nice! he’s also really into musicals, so he’ll probably start singing out of nowhere to give himself a ‘big entrance’ of sorts. to him, up is down and big is small. nothing matters to him except his tea. hatter has never seen what the real world looks like, though others believe he’s at least seen a glimpse of it. some say he used to be one of the ‘normal’ ones before he fell down the hole and decided to stay in wonderland entirely. but— that’s nonsense! he’s been in wonderland his whole life. how could he possibly know what life is like up there? unless, he forgot..
THE CHESHIRE CAT/RAY CARLING: this one is interesting, mysterious even. he was the first one to show up in wonderland. hell, you could even say he made wonderland himself.. if you believe that. unlike the mad hatter, he goes by more than just ‘cheshire’. he allows other people to call him raymond, since he likes longer names. ( shorter ones can be such a bore.. ) he’s as polite as the hatter, but has a nasty bite when you get on his nerves. like gene, ray has two forms. it was difficult for him to choose between the two of them. cat or human? human or cat? one day he decided that he personally prefers things when they’re mixed together, almost in between. he’s been waiting for the day where something different happens in wonderland. it’s been the same, day in and day out. but maybe, due to a certain man in leather, he can help change wonderland entirely. for good.
THE MARCH HARE/ANNIE CARTWRIGHT: other than the cheshire cat, one of the mad hatter’s friends is a hare by name of annie. she’s not exactly as mad as he is, but more like something to keep him from crossing the line between crazy and tame and going overboard towards crazy. she’s soft-spoken and welcoming, especially when sam ends up visiting them during their unbirthday parties. annie prefers her ‘human’ form to her hare form because someday she wishes to see what it’s like in sam’s world. maybe when sam figures it out, he can take her and the rest of them with him. then again, she’s not sure if anyone is ready for ‘crazy’ to bleed in with ‘normal’.
THE CATERPILLAR/NELSON: he’s one of the first wonderland inhabitants sam meets on his way to follow gene. he’s able to help sam grow back to his normal size, and even gives him advice on where to go, who to see, what to do, that sort of stuff. he does play a few pranks on him but nelson means well, he swears! before sam leaves to venture off to who-knows-where, nelson warns him in a much different accent and sam almost feels like he’s talking to someone else. he warns him of a grinning manic, one who’s deemed as dangerous and untrustworthy. maybe the cheshire cat, perhaps?
THE QUEEN OF HEARTS/PHYLLIS DOBBS: the ruler of wonderland might sound nice, but sometimes even she has her breaking points. agressive and sweet, sometimes a mix between the two. sam is pointed in her direction when he gets advice from raymond, but due to the cat’s tricks, sam almost loses his head.. until a trial is called for. she’s human, just as the mad hatter is. she’s also probably never seen the real world, like the rest of them. but sam feels like he’s met someone with her attitude before back home..
#life on mars uk#sammy in wonderland au#ray carling#sam tyler#gene hunt#annie cartwright#chris skelton#phyllis dobbs#nelson ( life on mars )#RAY CALLS HIM SAMUEL FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES#sam being all like ‘but.. my names sam’#and cheshire!ray is like ‘don’t care that’s your name now!!’#the ORIGINAL character concepts if it was set during lom and not a2a

VI. A Week in Mustique i loove this one <3
Thank you for the ask!! I love this one too -- have some Sonny and Uncle Liam bonding!! This next chapter will be Liam POV (I've not finished the chapter, it's going slow, and I've been a bit diverted with Carraville, but hoping to finish this chapter and keep it going) ***
Liam spots the lad he’s looking for, holding tight to a palm tree, stretching his skinny little leg behind his back like he’s Usain Bolt warming up for the Olympics. He doesn’t have the Gallagher look about him at all; not the eyebrows, or his father’s nose, or the sour little mouth that Donovan had inherited. Liam supposes he must look like his mother. But then the kid reaches up to rub at his eye, and his whole face sort of scrunches up disagreeably, and it’s a kick in the chest how like a little Noely G. he is, just for a flash of a second. Liam cups his hands around his mouth and shouts at the top of his lungs: “BUMBACLART!”
Sonny fairly jumps out of his skin, eyes going all cartoon-y and round.
“What the fuck, Uncle Liam?!”
Liam laughs and gives him a thorough scruffle round about the ears. “Alright little potato?! Where’s your brother, ain’t he coming with?”
Sunny pats his hair back into place. “Nah, he’s still sleeping. Lazy cunt. Anais said she wanted to come, but I think her sunburn’s still really sore, so I didn’t try to wake her up.”
“Ah, poor girl. She taking care of herself?”
“Yeah. Molly’s been helping put the aloe on and everything. And Gene won’t stop bringing her bottles of coconut water. He’s being really weird about it, it’s like-- she’s not fucking dying!”
“Ah, always been a softie, our Gene. Good he’s lookin’ after her.”
“Yeah, but it’s her own fucking fault, innit? Like, how stupid can you be?! We were on a boat, in the sun, for like-- five hours! How do you just forget to put sunscreen on?!”
Sonny gives a disapproving shake of the head, hands propped up on his hips.
Liam laughs, and gives his nephew a slap on the back. “Someday you’ll see, Little G. After a drink or two you stop being so smart.”
“I think even after about a hundred beers, I’d remember-- you’re in the middle of the fucking Carribbean! I mean we’re basically right on the fucking equator!”
They take off on a slow jog, and Sonny promises not to leave Liam in the dust. There’s a nice firmer bit of sand nearer the water where their feet don’t sink in so much, so they stick to running along the beach, watching the sun slowly peek up over the ocean. Sonny’s got a little Nike digital watch, so Liam tells him to say summat when they’ve gone a half-hour; and there they stop for a rest and kick sand and throw rocks into the surf, watching the morning sun turn the dark water orange and pink and blue. Sonny keeps up his bright little chatter pretty much the whole hour, like a little wind-up toy that Liam prompts with a question every so often; about school, his guitar playing, football, girls-- Sonny’s got a couple of prospects but ‘nothing serious’, according to him. (Geezer, Liam thinks. He’ll be a right little lady killer, will Sonny G.)
When they finally get back to the villa, Liam can hear a bit of clatter from the kitchen, but the house is still dark and quiet. Sonny gives him a high-five and begs off for a shower and a couple more hours of sleep.
“Oh, I almost forgot,” he turns back around and says in a sheepish voice: “Happy Birthday, Uncle Liam.”
They hug, and Liam has to work hard not to cry. It makes him think about all the birthday parties he’s missed out on, and all the ones he’s going to get to go to from now on. And it’s all very happy and achy inside his chest.
Sonny tromps back to his bunk. Liam watches him go, the sweaty parts of his hair sticking up from where Liam had hugged him too tight and ruffled his hair. He looks like a baby deer still, right at the age before they start to turn into men, when they still laugh at stupid jokes, and they’re not too cool for kid stuff and cartoons. So maybe Liam’s still got a bit of time left to be Sonny’s funny cool uncle.
Anyway. It feels like the start to the best birthday ever.

I’m not much of a writer at all, but I hope this is kinda okay! :)
It was hard to pinpoint an exact time in Uramichi's life when he felt genuinely happy. Maybe back when he was younger, when he still had hopes and dreams and saw the world with an innocence only a child could possess. Of course, that was before gymnastics, training, and hard mats.
It also could have been the moment he had first laid eyes on his little sister, her chubby little hand reaching out to hold his finger in a tight grip. In fact, most of his happiest memories were centered around his sister, even though she annoyed the hell out of him most of the time. Which is why he couldn't help but feel betrayed and bitter when she moved out, taking all that light and happiness and leaving him with nothing but a black hole of nothingness.
But bygones were bygones, and now he had a niece who repaired that tear in their relationship. A niece he would do anything to protect from the woes of life that had torn him down. He wouldn't pressure her into doing what she didn't want to do, instead leaving every available path open for her to take. She was going to shine bright like her mother, facing the world head-on with a smile that never faltered. He would die before she could turn out like him. Depressed and miserable, stuck without an anchor to keep him grounded.
He would be that anchor for her.
As Uramichi held her, he once again marveled at how small she was, how easily she could break. It had taken him weeks to muster up the courage to even hold her while sitting down. He felt rather warm at the feel of the weight nestled against his chest. It was rare for him to feel affection for things nowadays, but he's always had a soft spot for kids. Especially the one currently in his arms.
Said child was busy suckling on her thumb, now looked up him curiously and blinked at him with hazel eyes, a trait she received from her father. But everything else about her was pure Omota genes. Uramichi smoothed down a patch of unruly curls, smiling a little at how much trouble it would her mother to try to tame it. A vague memory of him helping fix his sister's hair flashed across his mind, but was gone as quickly as it came.
He rocked the baby back and forth a little, leaning down to whisper to her, while scanning the room to make sure they were alone. "You're lucky you're so adorable and can get away with anything. When you're a little older I'm going to teach you how to annoy your mommy. We'll have ice cream for dinner, and I'll buy you whatever you want even when your mommy says no. Because she's just a mean old lady and uncle Uramichi is the best." he cooed.
He pinched her cheek gently, face darkening. "Because of you all my money is going down the drain, which I bet is your plan, huh kiddo? To make your poor uncle go bankrupt. Well, it's working.' The baby just gargled in response, bopping his nose with her fist in retaliation to his words. Uramichi blinked in surprise, but chuckled to himself. It felt good to laugh again. He held her closer, feeling the small heartbeat against his. "Kidding, kidding. I'm really grateful for this opportunity."
Sighing, Uramichi closed his eyes in content, and rested his chin gently on top of her head. He was still terrified of tainting such an innocent soul, tearing down her bright future with his darkness, and maybe someday he would have to say goodbye for good to save her from himself. It was in the unforeseen future, he was sure of it, but he pushed those thoughts away for the time being.
Right now, this moment, was all that mattered. "I won't let anything hurt you, okay? Even me. Remember, your uncle Uramichi loves you so very much."
"Now, let's go find your mommy and bother her.'

Three
Were the things that came to Cibo’s mind upon stepping outside of the chamber.
First–
This was a depressing reminder of how the figure taking care of her, for all her human mannerisms and emotions and hurt looks, the figure she’s towering over is nothing less than an inhuman abomination not unlike the many she has struggled against to get to this point. She has not forgotten how she infiltrated the group of almost tribal humans and brought ruin to all of them. She remembers the rows of carefully preserved bodies with brain matter packaged and saved with the hope that somehow, someday, the owners of such bodies could be saved. She doubts it, but it meant a lot to them, The Fishermen, as they were called, so she remembers in her place now that thinking is unmuddled and makes sure to recognize it as such.
She just fought what could be considered an army and lasted for two hours. She died numerous times, but when death can be mended away with a thought, does it really count?
Second–
She is pregnant.
She did not want to be pregnant. But yet, there she is, with that sphere bloating her stomach.
She’ll keep it, of course. For research, mainly. And then, she’ll let Kyrii have it. She’s no parent and while this was their goal, it was his mission. She could not contain the Jealousy towards her own child, so it’s best to keep her away from it as cold as it may seem.
Checking in every ten or so years to see how development while connected to the Netsphere differs while isolated from it. Should be simple-ish.
Third-
Sanakan wanted a child. She would not be indulged. These desires of protection are hard to discern. Is she protecting her, or the carrier of the Net terminal gene? She could be lying when she said she wanted to save her. She could be addressing the incubated life-form.
Sanakan is duplicitous. She knows the actions of the safeguard have led to countless deaths. So with all this considered…
“Why should I save you, Sanakan?”
The answer is: she doesn’t know.
Sanakan knows that maybe she doesn’t deserve to be saved.
There’s not a single thing within her mind that indicates she needs to be saved at this moment. Cibo could deactivate every single synapse within her body, and leave her to rot for eternity. Not dead, but deeply, keenly aware of every moment, unable to move, be backed up. Something worse than a cessation of existence. That’s a power she holds over her now.
From her position on the ground, regeneration halted, legless, limbs bent out of shape and organs missing, with a substance that could most accurately be described as a goop dripping outwards, she bows her head forwards, stiff hair not bouncing or moving with the motion.
“I am at your mercy.”
“Do as you please with me.”
#cibo x sanakan#yes i'm still writing#not done#ugh#wish i was though#reading is so fine#then boom#writing#can't wait until i'm done#forget this exists#read it#then go#WHOA I WROTE THIS??#and immediately write some other trash#blame!#cibo#sanakan#fanfic#romance#of the#enemies to lovers#variety

Finale
Who else loves a good reprise medley finale?
—
Lights up. GENE cleans out his locker. HE walks outside. Troops are there, with tanks and artillery and sewing machines for parachutes. BRINKER walks over.
BRINKER
Hey, Gene. Ready to enlist?
GENE
I guess so.
BRINKER
My dad’s here. He wants to meet you.
MR. HADLEY approaches.
MR. HADLEY
Look at those doughboys! And their artillery—sewing machines!
BRINKER
This war is technical, so they’ve got to use all kinds of machines. Even sewing machines.
MR. HADLEY
Well, I can’t imagine any man in my time settling for duty on a sewing machine. I can’t picture that at all.
(to Gene)
So what are you enlisting in, son? There are so many exciting things to enlist in these days. Frogmen, the Paratroops…I’d give something to be a kid again with all that to choose from.
GENE
Well, I was going to wait, but then I figured…
Why wait to be drafted when we can choose now?
Control our own fate as much as they’ll allow
So I’m joining the Navy. I’ll never see a foxhole, I hope. And Brinker’s all set for the Coast Guard.
MR. HADLEY
The Coast Guard?!
BRINKER
You know, Dad, the Coast Guard does some very rough stuff.
MR. HADLEY shakes his head.
MR. HADLEY
What world am I living in?
Has everyone gone mad?
Get on up and be a man
‘Cause there’s a world war and real work to be had
Disappointed in kids these days
They wouldn’t know honor if it hit them in the face
If I was your age, I wouldn’t be playing it safe
You have to do what’s right
Whatever you feel is right
Just make sure it’s something you’ll be proud of in hindsight
‘Cause this is your moment
This will decide the rest of your lives, it’s true
The stories that you tell of this will define you
And you don’t wanna be the kids left behind
BRINKER rolls his eyes. MR. HADLEY walks away. BRINKER scowls.
BRINKER
Sorry about my dad.
GENE
It’s all right.
BRINKER
It’s all that World War I malarkey that gets me. I’m no hero, and neither are you. And neither is he. He never was. I don’t care what he says he almost did in World War I.
GENE
I think he just feels left out, being too old for the war this time.
BRINKER
Left out! Left out! He and his crowd are responsible for it!
The war, it started, before our time
We committed no crime
But now it’s our duty to go and die
While the ones who caused this just sit idly by
It’s all just a trade
A deal in the works for decades
We’ll take their place to pay for the mess that they’ve made
The old men made this and we’re stuck in the middle
And nobody cares, not even just a little
It almost feels like a prank they’re having
It’s such a joke but I’m not laughing
BRINKER walks away. GENE stands there, contemplating. HE turns to the audience.
GENE
I don’t think I believe him
It’d be safe if it were true
But war supersedes generation
Where there’s ignorance and fear, it follows too
HE looks around at the war reminders around him. HE looks up at the sky.
GENE
Things at Devon are different these days
The atmosphere is sadder lately
No one talks about you ‘cause I can’t talk about you
Not in the past tense, someday maybe
Now that I’ve lost you
Feels like I’ve lost myself
But I think it was long ago
that I really lost myself
In a world of my own
A separate construct of ignorance
And I missed the true separate peace we had found
What I wouldn’t give to go back to it now
The evil in the world couldn’t break you
So the evil in me did it instead
But you took it with you
Now it’s dead
It died with you
And my fears of the war, they all slip away
Like dew in the sunlight, evaporating
‘Cause what’s there to fear, when you’ve already killed
Your enemy, the fear and the hatred within
GENE marches away as PATRIOTIC MUSIC plays. Lights dim slightly.
OLDER GENE approaches and looks at the building. HE looks at the stairs Finny fell down.
ENSEMBLE
Return to Devon
1957
OLDER GENE
Things at Devon look strangely the same
Updated so they haven’t aged a day
Plus c'est la même chose, plus ça change
The more things stay the same, the more they change
Locked myself in a prison/of resentment and fear
I didn’t even realize/but now it’s so clear
But I felt no fear in the war
I felt no fear anymore
‘Cause what’s there to fear, when you’ve already killed
Your enemy, the fear and the hatred within
You took it with you
It died with you
HE goes to stare at the tree. HE places a hand on the trunk.
OLDER GENE
It doesn’t look so big and fearsome anymore
Ain't it funny how nothing endures
Not a tree, not love, not death by violence
And we find and we lose ourselves in the silence
The memory of seventeen still lingers
Our innocence, it slipped right through our fingers
We found ourselves pitted against the world and the war
We reacted with hostility to the horrors
Leper lost his mind when he saw it
Brinker lived in quiet resentment against it
Quackenbush lashed out in attack
I built up unnecessary defenses
Only Finny didn’t
He rose above
With affection and love
The rest built up Maginot lines
Against enemies in their minds
Who never attacked in the way that they thought
If they ever really existed at all
We, as a society, take a great fall
Fighting enemies that never existed at all
HE stands there, still touching the tree. Lights dim.
THE END

okay first of all im not convinced that rudy didn't buy tickets only bcuz louise annoyed him about it and he vaguely recognized the bands name from one of his dads old records FJDMDNSMSMSJ
why doesn't tina get to go to the old man concert w/ gene louise and their friends 😭
love how both concerts that tina mentioned going to were boyz 4 now concerts and that BOTH of them were actual episodes in the show. this is why catching up on bob's burgers lore is so important. these are the things you'd miss!!!!
NOOO NOT THE KING BREAKING HIS PAW this is a code red emergency
EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT QUINCE BURGER BANGER NAME‼️‼️ have the bobs burgers writers seen the hawk and chick bb/eeaao comparison gifsets. do they even know that they made me cry. i want you to know how much i love and support you even if you stop fighting monsters with me someday and do taxes instead. okay sorry i got distracted
rudy!!!!
okay MAYBE i missed them saying that the concert had paid entrance or something but this is a block party?? could they not just go downstairs and watch the band outside. like it might not be premium seats but at least they'd be going to their first concert ?
most normal louise and rudy interaction
LINDA IS GONNA GET LITTLE KING TRASHMOUTH EUTHANIZED GOOD GOD 😭😭😭😭💔💔
why is tina being the voice of reason here LMAO like at least google how to capture an injured raccoon or something
OH ITS NOT THAT HARD. GOOD WHEELS ON THIS THING obsessed w/ teddy in this subplot(??) i missed him
i feel like this episode has the same problem as the st patrick's day episode where despite the episode's title and description trying to make the subplot the main focus of the episode its also Clearly the subplot to a more important storyline. which is fine bcuz they're both entertaining in this episode but its gonna be confusing as hell in the future trying to find this episode 😭
"maybe it would be easier to watch the concert from the street" IM SAYING LIKE?? literally what was louise's plan here. im obsessed with her
girl. all this for like six pieces of candy
THIS HAS NO REASON TO BE SO STRESSFUL im shaking im so worried about little king trashmouth... if anything bad happens to him im killing everyone in this room and then myself. that would literally be bury your gays. to me
not bob having another burger related existential crisis ☹️☹️
bob has failed to realize he could cook literally ANY other food if he really wanted to. but i will admit he likes cooking the burgers. and tbh?? what he described sounded like an autistic dream so maybe he simply does not understand the vision like me and u bob. maybe he just doesn't get it
"is that magic marker?" "what makes you say that??" "my.... eyes?"
actually where the HELL did they get those shirts they're too big to be louise's but wayy too small to gene's this is the actual mystery in the episode. possibly maybe tina's old shirts or something??
today we learned that linda buys her wine from the liquor store on their block which was Probably obvious but cool to see it confirmed
OH HELL NOO BOB IS GETTIN OLDER
also kinda funny to say this when big bob is Literally in next weeks episode and seems happy enough running his diner.... like bob have you considered maybe you LIKE cooking for people and thats okay?? your dad does too. some people are happy to do one thing forever and thats not like a Problem unless you're unhappy
awww they're such cuties dancing together
ROMANTIC RACCOON REUNION 💕💕🏳️🌈
"Well there are moments, you know... when the band locks in, the crowd is with them and everything they ever loved about playing music comes flooding back in a rush of pure heavenly emotion. All that crap."
"But... all these decades later, they still have them? The moments?"
"You tell me."
😭😭 WHY DID THIS PART OF THE EPISODE MAKE ME WANNA CRY I HAVE TO GET A VIDEO OF IT OR SOMETHING. WHAT THE HELL too real for creative people..... omg. this season has a lot of moments like that about the creative process like gene's song etc
YOUNG BOB‼️‼️ OHH HES SUCH A GENTLEMAN bob my beloved
THIS EPISODE WAS VERY CUTE?? very silly subplot w/ linda and the raccoons and then louise and gene and their friends. bob's little crisis in the middle there got to me harder than anticipated (i think they could have easily made that into its own episode but considering they've done similar concepts in the past i dont hate that they didn't flesh that out as much as they could have. we already KINDA know where bob is coming from here) and the ending clip with bob singing was soo silly im gonna need to post that too. fun episode!

Wig Pigs
Welcome, welcome, welcome! I’m glad you decided to stop into Gigi’s place! I know, it can be a big decision for a lot of people to realize that they want to play with their appearance. Some people like to play with it in big ways? And others in small. And, I see what you’ve done already? And I like it. You seem to know what you’re looking for, dear. But, I think that there’s some things that I know? That I can share with you.
Like this!
Here, this is kind of an animal testing facility? But also kind of a petting zoo. Here! Feel this. Nice, isn’t it? This is what I call a Wig Pig! It’s my own invention. Well, my idea. A lot of other people’s fuss and hard work had to go into it. But yeah, it’s an animal that grows wigs for fur, and then you can harvest them safely and have a perfect wig! And then do it all over again! Isn’t that great!
You might want to sit down for this. The chairs are comfy, aren’t they? Only the best for my girls.
Yeah, I said that, didn’t I? Girl. Because I know that’s what you are. Even if other people can’t see it. I’ve been picking up what you’re putting down. And unfortunately, one of the things that you’ve been putting down might just be yourself. Because, like, the world is scary out there? But I want you to know, that here? You’re safe. You’re family. And I want to pick you up.
And, I think you’re ready to learn about how I did this?! Right?
OK, cool.
So, the Wig Pigs started out as ordinary guinea pigs. Do you know why they call test subjects guinea pigs? Specifically? It’s because guinea pigs can’t make Vitamin C, and neither can humans, and so they used to use guinea pigs, and still do, for nutritional studies. Because guinea pigs used to be raised for food, they’re reasonably chill and you can keep a bunch of them, and they breed fast.
So, we have a lot of base materials, the animals, to work from. And what makes them special? Why, so so so much. The main thing is that we’ve altered the genes and regulators that deal with hair growth? And we’ve made them super responsive to environmental factors. Like, all we have to do is change their diet and they start coming out with a new color or texture! If you want to have a rainbow hair mermaid wig, we could totally do that.
But, that’s not the vibe I’m getting from you right now. Someday, though. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. Maybe not ever.
Any questions so far?
OK, yeah, that’s a good question. No, it doesn’t hurt the Wig Pigs to harvest. We also can turn up how easily the hair falls out, or how hard it’s rooted in place. Just a little extra vitamin B-12 and the secret herbs and spices, and we can lift it right off of them! Just like spinning cotton candy! It’s so gentle some of the Wig Pigs even sleep through it, sweet little things.
And yes, they do come in longer sizes. We keep the short ones where the public can pet them and see how the textures are so nice! But the bigger ones can get tangled if we aren’t careful? So they spend most of their time in the back.
Now. I can tell you’re a little overwhelmed. There’s a lot. Lot, lot, lot of options here. So, I’m gonna give you one, and tell you why I think it would be perfect for you. And you can let me know what you think.
Of course, if this is all too much, you can leave and come back whenever, if ever, you want. No Pressure.
Good, I’m glad you want in on this too. It’s a lot of fun!
So, I think you should go short. I love short hair on you. A cute little pixie cut? Makes me think I want one of those themselves. They’re reasonably stealth, so people who think you’re not a pretty girl? They’ll just kind of glance over it. Not even notice. Especially if you, like, wear a hat? I’m not much one for hats myself, but I know a cute hat when I see one.
Now, the color. See, I love colors. I remember coloring so much as a kid and spending just as much time reading the names on the crayons. Seeing how the different colors actually came out on the paper, and whether or not it was the same on all types of paper. Fiber size, level of bleaching, gloss, all that stuff matters. Little details are little, but do they still matter. It’s all Tiny Worlds out there, dear. From the genes in the Wig Pig to the people in your life.
Anyway, colors. Since I spent so much of my life playing with colors, I have associations between colors and concepts! And I think what you need right now, girl, is some Hope. And I think Hope comes in blue.
I love the color blue. My eyes are blue, you know. At least, in the right light. Sometimes they come off as gray. And I can see that in your eyes too. I like that, it’s like we’re sort of twins? We’re connected at least.
Now, what you need is some really good Hope. And one of the things that makes me feel Hope is the night sky. It makes me feel small, in like a good way? And so, I propose, a short little pixie cut wig, grown from a cute little Wig Pig who is a very dark blue. Something like the night sky. Ultramarine is one of the names for that color. Ultramarine? Such a funny name. It sounds like some kind of space army or something!
Now, one last question.
Scent?
Like, I’m kinda big on perfumes. I don’t know much about the specifics, yet. Gigi’s still figuring out some things too. But Gigi likes to smell nice. And Gigi thinks it’s important to feel pretty in all of the senses. And the Wig Pigs can bake that right in!
I was inspired by Ancient Egypt. They would wear these cones of resin on top of their wigs? Because, yeah, a lot of them wore wigs. You could put them on inside when you wanted to feel awesome and pretty, and then take them off outside. Maybe to hide who you were from people who didn’t deserve to know. Maybe just because they lived in a desert. They didn’t write that part down.
But yeah, cones of resin are sticky and kinda gross. But! Wig Pigs make oils! Just like the hair of any other mammals. And by putting some sugar and spice and everything nice in there, we can make the wig smell, like, so good? And like anything you want. I prefer a more spice-forward scent myself? I really like nutmeg. Like, I could eat a potentially dangerous dose of nutmeg and not notice until I got sick. You can get sick off of nutmeg, did you know that?! Because it causes hallucinations, some people try to get high off of it? But it causes a lot more than just that. Bad stuff. People have died, I think. I'd need to look that up. But. Be careful, and stick to small amounts. Of nutmeg, or of a lot of things, really. Stay grounded.
Okay, enough bummer talk. I don't want to be a buzzkill, and today is about You.
Now, if you want to go no scent, and just be neutral with it? Great. The process to change the oils takes a few days. I have a no-perfume, ultramarine Wig Pig ready to go, so you can do no scent now, or make a new appointment later in the week to come back for a scented version. Yeah, I’ve been thinking about this for a couple of weeks now? As soon as you made the call for the initial consultation in fact…
What’d ya think?!
Oh, this is going to be fun!

Name: Nicole Salazar Species: Balam Occupation: Park Ranger Age: 30 Years Old Played By: Mary Face Claim: Adria Arjona
"I was, uh— Nature retreat. Four years. They had— nature and… shit."
TW: Parental & sibling death, drug manipulation
Long before “Pogo”, the tailless jaguar became an overnight sensation in Wicked’s Rest Zoo, before the feline drew crowds with its majestic beauty and fiery personality, before becoming a fan-favorite among zoo-goers and social media alike, there was Nicole, whose personality paled in comparison to the jaguar’s.
Nicole grew up in rural Vermont, and was expected to be extraordinary. Her family encouraged this belief as soon as she could comprehend words; instilling a sense of pride in who and what she was with tales of their ancestors, once regarded by mortals as otherworldly creatures. A magical spirit bound to its descendants even as their lineage thinned, tethering them to a fierce jaguar living within. A mighty beast that she’d one day set free too.
The illusion shattered once she matured. Not everyone grew up hearing such stories. And being ridiculed by peers for sharing them was enough for Nicole to withdraw. Pride turned shame, turned skepticism. She accepted that like all children’s tales, balams were nothing but fantasy. A fun bedtime story. There was no spirit; ghosts didn’t exist. Other family “anomalies” were rationalized as something they inherited from the past, of course. Genes. Not spirits, nor magic.
She relied on what was before her: Salazars lived an unremarkable, lonely life. There were no extraordinary circumstances surrounding them. Yet — Anxiety ticked like a bomb inside her. Or maybe it was always the beast, refusing to be forgotten.
At seventeen, life took a turn. In an instant, warm laughs at the family gathering morphed into frantic shouting. Hunters, her uncle shouted. Nicole stood transfixed in horror as her father snapped her out of the shock, pleading for her to run and hide, making a final promise to find them after. He had never given her a reason to question him. So her instincts kicked in. She fought the monsters chasing her, held onto her siblings, and sprinted toward their escape.
With a blast, everything vanished. Her siblings, the forest, the hunters. Nicole. The jaguar took over, raced toward safety, got lost in the wilderness. It wouldn’t be the last time the animal within was unleashed to save her life.
Two years after that fateful night, hidden deep in a forest, Nicole opened her eyes. Claimed her body back from the beast. Memories trickled down slowly. Fragments of truth. Piece by piece it came together, until tragedy dawned on her: she had lost everything.
The following months were hazy. If asked, she wouldn’t be able to recall most of it. She had to get in touch with her humanity again. Relearn who she was. Only the desperate need to find her family someday kept her going. She got easy jobs here and there. Slept in abandoned vehicles. When she inspired pity in strangers, she had a roof over her head.
A short return to her hometown revealed that no trace of her family remained; her childhood home didn’t exist anymore. From the ruins, another farm had emerged. Neighbors claimed the surviving Salazars went into hiding. Others believed no one made it. And one small tip turned into hope: They had been seen in a town called Wicked’s Rest. Nicole shoved the few things she owned into a bag and took off.
Wicked’s Rest didn’t provide the answers she had been hoping for, but it gave her a small community to rely on when her determination wavered. It gave her a new start. She found comfort and peace in nature, it injected life back into her soul. Working to safeguard her comfort place blossomed into a worthwhile goal, and a few seasonal gigs at the State Park turned into a stable job. Things were looking up.
As she worked on moving past tragedy, another hunter barged into her life. The jaguar, whom Nicole had built a cordial relationship with, broke out again, but this time, it wouldn’t bolt; it sought revenge. No longer afraid of blades and firearms, it fought for the lineage lost. And though its deadly bite triumphed in the end, it came with the cost of its tail.
That’s how other rangers discovered the animal. Bleeding, weak, missing a piece, sedative darts scattered. Following weeks of care, the jaguar landed in the Zoo. The place was painfully small for a beast who enjoyed long strolls, but there were upsides: It didn’t have to worry about catching prey, nor fighting hunters looking to cash in on its pelt. No, the jaguar was pampered. So it eventually accommodated, fell into the routine of the Zoo. Enjoyed the attention its human counterpart never desired. Another four years went by like that.
Until one night, half a year ago, a man entered the enclosure. The jaguar was immediately on edge by the presence. His intentions were irrelevant. He could’ve been trying to snap a picture or he could’ve intended to harm the balam — though the glint of a blade could’ve been a sign— the animal defended itself from the intruder, made a meal out of him and while at it, ran away from its confinement, deciding it was no longer safe for them at the Zoo.
Deja vu hit Nicole as she woke up in the forest once again, more years of her life lost to the jaguar.
The rumors spread about the disastrous escape, it sent Pogo lovers into ill-advised search parties. With no technology to aid her, Nicole relied on the whispers of strangers commenting on the news. Day by day, those subsided. Until lion cubs were born and all the attention pivoted to them. It offered Nicole the chance to get her bearings in order. As long as she stayed human, no one would ever find the tailless jaguar, even if the campaigns to find it continued. Now more than ever, she had to keep the beast under control. Couldn’t let it lock them anywhere, rob her of the life she was desperate to get back to.
Taming a fearless jaguar should be simple enough, no?
Character Facts:
Personality: Empathetic, courageous, intuitive, loyal, humble, anxious, secretive, indecisive, cranky, solitary
She has a small cabin in The Pines where she lives with her dog, Nacho. It’s exactly the kind of environment she was looking for to keep the jaguar out of trouble, but too far from the world she wants to be part of. For now, she’s prioritizing not ending up in the zoo again.
She’s become even more solitary and reluctant to engage in conversations after her second stint as a jaguar. Having lost a good chunk of her young years means she’s not great at social interactions anyway. She missed a lot of “firsts” and common milestones people go through at a young age.
Too afraid of losing control again, she’s very particular about how much she allows the jaguar to shift. Rarely it’s a full shift, but when she does, she makes sure it’s far outside the town, where Pogo doesn’t risk running into a fan.
She found a way to get her park ranger job back after disappearing for four years. She really likes it. Even smiles on the job sometimes. She’s fine with doing tours and providing information for visitors and hikers, but the night patrols are her favorite part. It’s when she gets to look through the eyes of the jaguar. For that reason, she prefers doing it alone. She’s ended up encountering more than a few supernatural incidents as a result.
She has a quiet fascination for ghosts. It’s not a hobby per se, but if she’s stressed or can’t sleep, she’ll visit a cemetery. The world of spirits is wide open now that she’s growing into her abilities. But how far do they extend? Maybe one day she’ll get to speak with one? Can she speak to them? It’s all new.
