Glued to Your Side

CW: Spoilers for everything past season 1, clingy Dazai, little bit of angst, brief mention of Oda, Dazai is so so smart but so so dumb, maybe OOC?, hurt/comfort, bad writing - I can’t write dialogue sorry!

Pairings: Dazai x Reader

Author’s Note: I need to stop writing angst so have a fluff piece!  Or at least what was supposed to be a fluff piece.  It turned more into hurt/comfort tbh.  Also I attempted dialogue for this fic but I am BAD at writing any form of speech so sorry for that.  Not proofread also I was very hungover when I finsihed this lmao.

Also! I have a Masterlist now! It only has like 4 works so far but hopefully that’ll change aha.

Masterlist

Ever since you started working at the ADA, your world had been turned on its head.  There was always some sort of strange job to take, or fight to have with the mafia or some other organisation.  However, there was one fact that remained constant since you had become a detective: Dazai Osamu was a flirt.

You were fine with it, even sometimes enjoying some back and forth banter with the living mummy. It was completely harmless, you knew it wasn't going anywhere so it wouldn't get in the way of your professional career. Plus, you knew you weren't the only one subject to Dazai's affectionate teasing, so you knew there would never be anything romantic between you too, meaning you were free to pursue real romance if you wanted to.

At least that's what you thought.

In the weeks following the batte against the Guild, Dazai had been clingier than usual. He made a point of always keeping some sort physical contact with you, whether it was leaning on you while you were sat on the agency's couch (after he dragged you to sit and do work there instead of your desk), or having you walk shoulder to shoulder when you went on jobs.

You guessed the close eye he had been keeping on you had something to do with meeting Q. You had been the agency member tasked with escorting Haruno and Naomi to safety. While the three of you were on the train, after escaping Lovecraft and Steinbeck, you met the small child named Yumeno. They had seemed like a perfectly normal, sweet little kid. The four of you got along and chatted as you waited to reach your stop. Getting off the train, however, was a different story. When Q bumped into Atsushi and activated his ability, your memories got a little fuzzy. It was like a flip switched in Atsushi as he suddenly became violent, lashing out towards Haruno, Naomi and yourself. You quickly jumped in to protect them, bearing the brunt of the attack and being thrown into the walls of the train station. You'd hit your head pretty badly, so you could not fully register the rest of what happened. You vaguely recalled Dazai rushing in and stopping Q's ability and watching the child wave goodbye as the train carried him off. You passed out shortly afterwards.

According to the others, Atsushi had taken Haruno and Naomi to safety, while Dazai took you straight to Yosano.

After the Guild used Q to attack Yokohama, Dazai had been stuck to you like glue. You hadn't minded, you were used to his antics and affectionate behaviour. But a week passed. Then two weeks and still Dazai was fixed at your side. You had begun to get suspicious. While he was clearly putting effort into appearing as his usual self, it was clear there was something going on. He had started flirting less and less with others, even ceasing his witty back and forths with the waitress at the cafe below the agency offices. He had gradually gotten clingier and clingier too, seeking you out even on days off, to the point where soemtimes you felt as if you were being suffocated.

Everything came to a head when your friends from home were visiting the city. You had planned to meet up with your friends in the shopping district. You had not planned on bumping into Dazai. Wandering through the shopping district, arms linked and laughing at old memories, you didn't even see the bandaged man until you walked straight into him.

“Belladonna! Fancy seeing you here!" Your coworker greeted you, eyes glinting with mischief.

You were sure he was up to something, but you couldn't quite figure it out. One thing you knew though, it was no surprise that he saw you there. You had made it known to the agency how you would be spending the day off.

"Yes, well you did know I was going to be here. I mentioned it yesterday Osamu," you remarked.

Truth be told, you'd been attempting to have a Dazai-free day. He hadn't left your side in a while and you were really in desperate need of some time to collect your thoughts. Due to his attentiveness over the past few weeks, your friendship with Dazai was slowly turning into something more, at least on your end. You were sure it was all in your head though so you needed some time away from him until you could collect yourself and sort your feelings out. His recent actions confused you.

Dazai's smile faltered at the mention of your plans. "Oh, I must have forgotten," he said, his tone uncharacteristically subdued.

You raised an eyebrow at his unusual behavior, but before you could say anything, your friends interrupted.

"Hey, who's your friend?" one of them asked, eyeing Dazai curiously.

"This is my coworker, Dazai Osamu," you introduced him, not noticing the way Dazai's jaw clenched at the mention of "coworker."

Your friends chatted with Dazai for a few minutes before you realised the time and had to rush to your lunch reservations.  Quickly saying goodbye to Dazai, you grabbed your friends and rushed off.

During lunch, your friends regaled you with stories from home, and you laughed and joked with them.  However, your mind was elsewhere, thinking of the strange actions of your fellow detective.  Dazai never forgot anything, you knew that you had mentioned coming out with your friends multiple times too, so what was he doing showing up? It was messing with your head.  At least you’d managed to escape him during lunch.

After saying goodbye to your friends, you decided you needed rest and you went home.  Shutting the door behind you, you dragged yourself over to your coush and toppled onto it, exhausted.  You had barely shut your eyes when you heard a knock at the door.  Opening the door, you came to see a familiar sight.

"Dazai? What are you doing here?" you asked, confused.

"Dropping by to say hello, of course," Dazai replied, strolling past you into the house and settling down on your couch.  “Bella you would not believe the day I’ve had.  First, Kunikida would not stop bugging me about th-”

“Stop.” You cut him off before he could finish his story.  “Osamu, what are you doing here? I mean what are you really doing here?”

His eyes softened at the use of his first name.  “I wanted to see you,” he spoke softly, barely above a whisper, as if he were afraid to let anyone else hear it.

“You see me all the time!” Your frustration started to get to you as you raised your voice.  “You literally saw me just a few hours ago, which, by the way, I know wasn’t a coincidence beacuse I definitely told you I was going out with my friends.”

“Y/N I-” he started, but you quickly shut him down.

“No.  Listen to what I have to say first. I don’t understand Dazai.  What do you want from me? You’ve been glued to my side ever since the battle with the Guild and you’ve been acting weird and I, I don’t know what’s going on but you’re messing with my head.  I was fine before, talking and joking with you, but now you’re just making me so confused and I don’t know what to think anymore.” You ranted and rambled on and on, letting all your thoughts out.  “What’s going on? Please tell me.”

“I’m sorry,” he started, as he watched you fall onto the couch beside him. He knew he had been acting different lately and he knew exactly why.  He couldn’t help himself, after all, he’d come to find he cared for you.  A lot.  Much more than he wanted to for everything that was ever worth wanting was lost the moment he obtained it.  But by God did he want you.  

When Higuchi and Gin lured him away from the station to talk, he had been suspicious.  But as he realised that Q had been unleashed, he felt his stomach drop.  He had never feared for another person so much, not since Oda.  He couldn’t lose you.  But he had been to late to protect you from Q.  So, while he knew he could not have you all to himself, he also decided he would always stay by you to ensure your safety.  You had become his top priority. 

Still, when you confronted him about his change in behaviour, he didn’t know how to respond.  He didn’t want to suffocate you, but he knew he had to protect you.  He couldn’t be with you, but he knew how crushed he would be if you were with someone else and it would no longer be his place to stay by your side.  He did not want to lose you and everything he ever managed to grasp was lost to him.  Hearing your words, he knew you had romantic feelings for him.  And now, as he gazed into your eyes, he was torn between his head and his heart.  

Noticing his silence, you began to speak again.  “This isn’t fair to me you know.  You have to be honset with me.  Just tell me the truth and from there, we’ll figure it out.”  You smiled, gently placing a hand on his shoulder.  He seemed so fragile, so delicate in a way you’d never seen him before.

The reassuring gesture prompted Dazai to once again look to the floor.  He know what you’d probably say, if he was honest with you.  You’d probably tell him it didn’t matter and that you could be together anyway.  Then you would get hurt and he couldn’t have that.  But he didn’t think he could lie to you either, not anymore.  You wouldn’t believe him.  So he chose his words carefully as he turned to you and began explaining.

“I know I've been...clingy, lately. And I'm sorry for that.” He snuck a glance at you, seeing you staring back, listening intently.  “You have to understand that what happened with Q, I just- I just need to make sure you’re safe.”

“I can handle myself.”

“I know, belladonna, I’ve seen you in the field.  But this is something different.  I have to make sure i don’t lose you.  I need to make sure you’re safe because I-” He takes a pause again to collect himself, bracing for what comes next.  “I care about you a lot.  But I can’t be with you.  Everything I ever want, I ever love, is always lost and I can’t have that happen to you.  I tried to stop it, I flirted with others, told myself that it’s no different with you, but it was.  And the thing is, I’ve come to realise, I can’t help the way I feel about you.”

“Dazai-” You spoke, but this time he cut you off.

“Please just let me get this out.” He looked at you once more and you could see the raw emotion in his eyes.  Never had he been so open, so vulnerable. “I can’t help how I feel about you, and I can’t be with you.  Not in the way I want.  But I can protect you.  If I just stay close enough, I can protect you and you won’t have to be hurt.  I know it’s selfish, but it’s the only reason to stay close to you, without ever having to lose you, because you wouldn’t be mine.”

“Osamu-” He noticed you beginning to speak, but continued on, eyes now fixed to the floor.

“I knew what you’d say if I told you this.  I know what you’d probably tell me now if I let you speak.  That it’s not true, right? I can have you and you won’t be lost to me.  Except that it is true.  Everyone I’ve ever held close has been taken from me.  I will not let that happen again.” His tone was filled with conviction as his gaze grew more determined. “I’ve been to lenient, allowing myself to flirt and joke about with you.  It’s selfish of me, to do that to you when we have no future together, but I can never seem to help it when it comes to you.  I’m going to step back now though, let you live your life, find someone who deserves yo-”

“Don’t.” Dazai’s eyes widen as he takes you in.  Your eyes are glazed over, as if tears are about to spill at any moment, lip quivering, but your determination is written all over your face.  “You told me how much you care for me and want to keep me safe, right? Well, I feel the same way about you.” You were in complete disbelief.  How could he be so dumb as to believe you would ever love anyone else?  “You haven’t lost me yet, even though you said you wanted me.  There are some things in this life that we just can’t control, like when it’s time to depart from it.  You may lose some whom you love but that doesn’t mean that everyone else we love will follow the same pattern.” You reached out and grabbed his hands.  “Osamu, have you ever considered that, given that it’s my life, I should be able to decide how to spend it and who I spend it with?”

“Of course I have and you should, but that person can’t-”

“It can be you.  I don’t want to hear anymore of this ‘selfish’ crap about how you want to protect me and love me but can only do it from a safe distance.  I feel safest and happiest when I’m around you.  I feel protected because you’re there.  You’re a fool if you think anyone else is capable of making me feel that way.  Osamu I-” You took a breath, choosing how to word your next sentence carefully.  “Osamu. You are the most intelligent person I know, so I honestly don’t understand why you’re being so stupid right now.”

Dazai let out a shocked laugh at that.  He guessed he deserved the insult.  He guessed he probably deserved a lot worse than a single insult as he remained quiet, head down.

“You’re not being selfish by wanting to be close to me, especially when I want that too.  You are being selfish by keeping me at a distance and I won’t be letting that happen anymore.” At that Dazai lifted his head, turning to you wide eyed. “These feelings go both ways.  The idea of losing you is terrifying to me, just as losing me terrifies you, but we can’t stop loving others just because we’re afraid of loss.  We have to go on.  Maybe one day we might lose each other, but that’s not either of our faults, that is life.  We have to make the best of it by staying together and protecting each other.  The most fulfilling life for me is the one I get to spend with the person I love.” 

Dazai’s hands retracted from yours in one swift motion.  Startled, you jumped back slightly.  Had you said something wrong? Touched a nerve? Had you gone too far when you called him stupid?

“You... love me?” Wait what? Did he hear you right? You loved him? He had assumed you’d had romantic feelings for him, yes, but love?  He hadn’t realised you felt that strongly for him.  He’d assumed you’d easily be able to get over him as long as he distanced himself and he was dead set on keeping that distnce after starting this conversation.  Now, he didn’t think he could.  You loved him.  Him.  After that confession, Dazai lost any resolve he had left. His body moved of its own accord as his hands cupped your face, pulling you towards him.  

His lips met yours in a soft, tender kiss, not at all what you’d imagined your first kiss with him to be like.  It was delicate and gentle, as if he was afraid of breaking you, yet still firm enough that you couldn’t escape his grasp, like he thought you may leave.  You assured him that wasn’t the case by raising your arms to rest around his neck, keeping him close.  As you broke apart for breath, Dazai rested his forehead against yours, keeping you as close as possible.

You stayed like that for while, holding each other, exchanging soft kisses, small reassurances that shared how much you cared for one another.  After that conversation, Dazai could not deny himself of you any longer, he couldn’t push you away, not after feeling your love.  You still had a lot to talk about, but for now, Osamu Dazai was happy to just hold you until you fell asleep in his arms and he could whisper his reply to your confession.

“I love you too.”

writing first drafts

as writers, there's a lot of pressure we put on ourselves: obsessing over getting everything right the first time, trying to make everything we put on a page the most incredible, moving, intriguing piece of literature ever written. and not only is that not realistic, it's also not at all helpful. so i'm going to outline a bit of my outlook and process when it comes to first drafts, in the hopes that it helps someone else out there on the interweb, and lessens some of my own discomfort with writing first drafts.

if you're subscribed to my tog fic fanaticism, you might know where this post is going already.

the point is this: writing is a process.

well, duh, i hear you say. that's obvious. you start with the first word, and then you write all the words that come after.

and to that, I say:

you don't have to start at the beginning. sometimes a story idea starts with an ending. sometimes it starts with a middle. sometimes all you have is a beginning, or a setting, or a character. whatever it is, a story does not pop into being fully-realised and in the perfect narrative (or chronological, even!) order.

sometimes you're writing a scene with a baller line of dialogue at the beginning. and when you get to the end of the scene, you realise that the beginning is a bit wonky because of that line, so you move that line to the end.

but wait! there's more!

writing is messy. there's so much more that happens between an idea and the finished work. the first draft isn't good -- it doesn't even look like literature, in most cases.

now, when I say "first draft," i mean that literally. my first drafts are the first written records i have of a story idea. here's another good way of thinking about first drafts:

here's my (completely unedited) first draft for chapter 33 of the aforementioned fanaticism. be warned: here there be typos!

I have to finsih fanatacism. I onkwo i writie it for myself but ther’es people that read it, and so i feel like i can’t just iugnore them. The nett the hapter im writing is kind of boring; its hard ot get it to say the write things’ ha. Funny typo. Yusuf and nicolo are djisjgighs awkward around each other which is kind of difficult because theyve already havd one lowe confession moment and its hard to have two in a row een though i think it makes sense given their characters and the circumstances. Nivolo fon’y let people in easily, and i ddon’t think hes ready to be open with andromache. Maybe not quynh either, but i think they get along better because she’s less pushy thna andromache.  Why is ysuf holding back??? External validation?? That;’s pronbalby it. He came from a very loving home where they said their love loudly, and know he’s with nicolo, half-feral and bad at showing emotions, andromache, who is keeping herself at a distance in ordre to protect her soft heart, and quynh, who’s denying her own feelings and therefore not able to be poroplery genuine with anyone else. Booker. Yipes.

this isn't always what my first drafts look like. this time, i did a freewrite, meaning i wrote without interruption. basically just vomited words onto the page. (post about freewriting to come!)

now, did i have any actual plot in this first draft? any beautiful prose? nope! instead, i had typos and nonsense and vague ideas and tangents into unrelated topics.

it doesn't matter if the words you're writing are shit. you're allowed to write shit. most of the stuff i write is shit, and people more successful than me would agree. the important thing here is volume: once you churn out enough shit, maybe you'll find something in the shitpile that interests you or makes you think of a cool dialogue exchange, metaphor, or whatever. once the words start flowing, it's so much easier to keep them coming.

let's circle back to my shitpile.

Yusuf and nicolo are djisjgighs awkward around each other which is kind of difficult because theyve already havd one lowe confession moment and its hard to have two in a row een though i think it makes sense given their characters and the circumstances. Nivolo fon’y let people in easily, and i ddon’t think hes ready to be open with andromache. Maybe not quynh either, but i think they get along better because she’s less pushy thna andromache. 

That;’s pronbalby it. He came from a very loving home where they said their love loudly, and know he’s with nicolo, half-feral and bad at showing emotions, andromache, who is keeping herself at a distance in ordre to protect her soft heart, and quynh, who’s denying her own feelings and therefore not able to be poroplery genuine with anyone else.

now, this is interesting. i'm going to clean this idea up so y'all can actually fuckin read it.

Yusuf and Nicolo are awkward around each other. They've already had a moment of intimacy between them, but they haven't acknowledged their feelings since that moment. For Nicolo, this is because he doesn't let people in easily. He's not ready to be open with Yusuf when there's an audience, like Andromache or Quynh. For Yusuf, it's because he's used to affection being shown very openly, so he's not reading any of the cues Nicolo is dropping.

okay. those are character motivations. those are emotions. now we're cooking!

so, next, I thought about every awkward moment i've ever had with another human being, particularly ones that i like(d) or love(d) in significant ways. what are some ways that people show affection for each other?

compliments, borrowing/offering belongings, spending time together, gifts

cool. easy. now, write those scenes.

They will sit beside each other at supper – Yusuf will compliment Nicolo on the stew, if Nicolo cooked, and Nicolo will mumble something dismissive and embarrassed under his breath and that will be the end of it. If Yusuf has cooked, the roles will reverse, and Nicolo will be the one stumbling through thanking Yusuf, who flushes so dark that it almost looks unhealthy.

for those of you keeping track, this is DRAFT FIVE. (four, if you don't count outlining the love languages.) in these later drafts, we can do what you probably think of as actual editing: word choice, grammar, pacing, etc.

writing is a PROCESS. it's not pretty or immediate; it takes time. creative inspiration isn't lightning striking a tree and starting a forest fire, it's starting a campfire with flint and steel: striking two ideas together with determination and patience and resilience.

go write. you've got this!

hello, i was wondering if you have any links to rules for legacy challenges? and if you have any tips for keeping up with them?

Hi! Someone on the fourms made a pretty substantial list here! That includes not only legacy challenges but build/story oriented challenges. Some if not all might be pulled from that list but these are the ones I’ve played: 

100 BC Gorgons and Heros @straussz

Differences in the family tree @samtastic-sims

5 Year legacy challenge @phdsimmeroffscreen

Random Occurances Challenge (the link is too a new version/different version but its the same stuff) 

Family Dynamics 

Random Roller Legacy (linked to the rules but if you google it you can find rollers so you don’t have to do it yourself!) 

Ones I have saved/thought/want to play:

Neck of the Woods Challenge 

Get a Life @plasmavamp

TS2 to TS4 @smart--milk

 LEPacy challenge @anotherplumbob

Game of Life Challenge @butteredsims

This randomizer simillar to random roller but more specific things-updated for Ecoliving 

I personally want to find/make a challenge that involves spares and the like because that is a part of gameplay that I feel like I’m lacking. 

As for tips I would suggest that you just don’t follow a rule you don’t like! I love doing challenges and I have been dying to just try new things in the game/things I haven’t really explored fully. Also sometimes it makes sense to go “in order” of what is listed but I find if I mix them up it makes it easier for me to do. I know I don’t like certain things so I put them in between tasks I know I will like doing. Also sometimes your just not feeling the heir you’ve been dealt, have them be a bad ass and finsih everything quickly or say screw it and they were just the “failed” generation!  I think that’s key just don’t force anything, if you do that you won’t want to keep playing!

'Normal' Meetings

Mono (Classic/Tale)- Will most likely happen when he's checking in on you during the night, or curious as to who he now has to protect in a state different then saving your ass from an animalistic werewolf.

You turned to look out the window, surprised for two reasons.

The first being it was already dark out. Had time really passed that much since you had put all your furniture in and had finally finsihed fully furnishing everything in your new house?

The second being the male peering through with wide, shocked sockets staring back at you, upside down, hanging off the side if the porch.

Then.. He fell..

After the momentary shock of what happened, you rushed outside to see if he was okay, and why he was peering into your house.

Mono now sat in the porch, rubbing his skull from the impact, before he jumped up.

"Are you okay? Are you alri-"

"Don't freak out human! I'm-"

You both cut each other off.

"Y-you go fi-" "No- you-" You both stammered to each other.

You gestured to him after a moment, to which he sighed.

"Human, I am a gargoyle. My name is Mono and I guard this house, its land, and now you." 'Mono' stated in a deep, raspy tone, before kneeling. Depsite his calm exterior, he was freaking out internally.

Humans weren't supposed to know he was alive, especially not on the first night.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, New Master." Mono said, his sudden sweet and polite tone sounding forced and too much effort put in.

The sudden title had you taken aback.

"You don't need to address me! I'm Name. Please, call me such." You responded, trying to ease the tense air as the slight shift in the gargoyle before you.

He raised his head, his sockets narrowed some as if he was studying your features for deciet. He was so uses to human supremacy. This was new..

"Please, just.. Is your head okay?" You asked, offering a smile. "And, thanks for saving me the other night.."

Maybe.. Maybe Mono could trust this human.

Talie (Puff/Tale)- Will more than likely be during a visit to the lake to unclog the water system behind the house and in the woods.

As you walked calmly through the trees, you couldn't help but feel eyes on you. It was.. Probably an animal! Yeah..

Upon reaching the lake, you sighed some, admiring the clear water with the small fish swimming around. Now just to figure how you could get to the water pump without much hassle.

Soon, you were waist deep in the water, wading towards the pipe cover in the muddy grounding when you suddenly noticed the water getting darker from more than just dirt.. Or rather a shadow looming over you in the now dark water.

A yell left your mouth as something wrapped around your waist and yanked you back.

"Human! Human! It's Okay!" A voice called, a pair of hands being placed in your shoulders as you were turned around to take in the sight of whoever now held you.

Your eyes widened as the large creature processed in your mind.

A large skeleton with a soft, sweet face with sharp canines.

Glancing down, you found orange tentacles wrapped around your waist.

Your mouth fell open as the skeleton was quick to start talking about before you screamed.

"Human! It's Okay! I Am Just Trying To Help!" He said quickly, swiftly pulling anither tentacle out of the water to reveal a snapping turtle in his grasp.

"You Were Only A Few Feet From Them And I Didn't Want You Losing A Toe!" He stated quickly, watching your expression go from shocked horror to scared realization.

He quickly put the turtle back into the water for them to swim baxk down stream.

Then, the skeleton released you.

"Human! I Can Finally See You! I'm Talie! The Great Talie!" He introduced, sticking out a hand eagerly for you to shake, as if kraken skeletons were an everyday occurrence to be caught by.

"N-Name.." You said back after a moment, regaining yourself as you shook his hand nervously.

"Well, Name, Do You Need Help?" Talie asked with a bright grin.

Envei (Berry/Swap)- After meeting two skeletons in such a close time, you decides to cool off in another pond, stripping from your outer clothing to a swimming suit.

As you got into the water, you relaxes around, wading and walking through the water for a while as you sughed happily.. Only for something to brush your legs as you jumped back.

A.. Another skeleton slowly emerged from the water, peeking his nasal up from the water as he stared at you with bright blue eyes.

You could see, on the sides of his head, were fins. Oh no.. Another one.. A.. Merman?

Before you could say anything, you found the skeleton sunk down into the pond, before suddenly appearing in front of you with an incredulous expression.

Before you could even breathe, the monster had let out a loud laugh as he placed his webbed hand onto your shoulders and waist, suddenly lifting you with and spinning you around like childhood friends.

You let out a yell which caught his attention, him setting you down with a bright smile.

"S-Sorry Human! I Can't Control Myself! You're The First I've Seen Of Your Species In A While And Now I Can Talk To You In Person! Gosh, You're Much More Attractive Up Close." He stated, getting closer to you, smirking to reveal his sharp teeth.

"Oh! My Manners!" He suddenly whispered to himself, backing up as his smirk turned to a grin.

"I'm Envei!" He introduced, quirking a brow encouragingly to your hesitance.

"...Are.. Are you a mermaid?" You couldn't help yourself. He was.. Intriguing?

"No. If I Was, I'd Be A Merman. I'm A Siren." He corrected, his tail swishing under the water eagerly. At your more concerned face, he quickly switched to reassurance. "But Don't Worry, I Don't Like Human! I Prefer Animals And Plants!" His voice was upbeat, but a but nervous as he fiddled some with his scarf.

"Name." You finally said after a moment, watching as he perked up some curiously. "That's my name, Envei."

This was the start of a long matches of water games and scares.

Taif (Stretch/Swap)- Will mostly occur when you're needing to go into the woods, wanting to gather some berries or something for a snack. However, that note was stuck in your head.

"A....Al?" You called, watching for a long moment, feeling stupid as you peered into the trees ahead as if something would happen.

Sighing some, you let the thought slip from your mind and prepared to take a step.

"Human! No!" A voice called, reaching for you and pulling you back before you could go into the vegetation.

Turning around, you saw another skeleton. This.. Wasn't as much as a shock since you'd figured out probably all of who you met that first night a week ago were skeletons.

"Never go that way! That's to Domni and Vipers caves." The skeleton stated, sockets wide and voice a bit frantic. Then, he processed your shocked expression as he realized he was still holding your shoulders tightly and quickly recoiled back.

"S-sorry.." He apologized, cradling his hands to his chest as he looked away, as if in shame.

After a moment, you regained yourself enough to talk. "Are you.. Al?" You ask softly, the skeleton glancing at you as he lifted his head some, and nodded. Offering him a small smile, you extended your hand.

"Name. It's a pleasure to meet you, Al."

'Al' was hesitant, before shaking your hand as he visibly relaxed.

"So, what're we looking for?" He asked, turning towards a different part of the forest.

Something felt off about him.. Like he wasn't telling the truth, but he held no malicious aura to him..

Domni (Red/Fell)- Oh boy.. There is no subtlety. He openly goes to your house to just straight up talk to you like you've been friends for a lifetime.

You were just chilling at you place, when you heard knocking on the door. That's.. Odd.. No one lives around here, and you hadn't ordered anything..

Maybe it was Mono, or Al? But, why would either of them need you?

Approaching the door, you hesitated a moment, before grabbing a hold of the doorknob. As soon as you started twisting, the door was pushed open and someone pushed into your house.

"Ah, so yer da human that pissed off my brother? Hah! Good one! Haven't seen 'im so mad since Undyne tried to take the guard position again!"

Okay, who was this jackass?

He pushed his way into your house to just start talking as if he hadn't just shoved his giant ass into someone else's house.

As you were about to say something, you froze at seeing his large wings and tail.

How the hell did you get into this situation? You asked yourself, the reality of the situation hitting you. Monsters aren't supposed to be real.. They're supposed to be myths.. Stories.. Tales..

Now you're surrounded by, as far as you could tell, about ten? All of which hadn't seemed to want to you around.. Except Talie and Envei, but even they seemed dangerous at some points.

Maybe it'd be better if you started packing now.. You honestly just wanted to get away from the city and stress, but got thrown into a fantasy world of hiding monster men.

"..an...-Hum... Human!" A voice boomed, you suddenly breaking from your thoughts to see the dragon character in your face, eyes narrowed and mouth pursed. "You alive in that head of yours?"

You blinked a bit, before jumping back as he snorted some from your momentary surprise.

"Yer a weird one." He commented, before chugging a.. Bottle of mustard?

"Hypocrite.." You muttered, to which he stopped drinking the condiment and eyed you as if in offense.

"What ya say?" He asked, words a bit incoherent some from yellow substance in his mouth.

"H-...Hypocrite." You repeated, getting a spurt of courage. "Hypocrite."

He scoffed in mock offense. "An' tell me how?"

Ugh, his voice was so annoying! Even if it was deep, with a rough edge and a brooklyn accent.. No! He was a major dick! "Firstly, you come into my house without permission, then take my stuff, and proceed to insult me. All within five minutes."

This actually seemed to get to him, him opening his mouth slightly as his sockets opened some as he seemed to visibly process his words.

His lips then curled up into a grin as he started laughing as if you'd said the worlds funniest joke. "I like ya human! Names Domni." He stated, grinning wider to shoe off his sharp teeth and golden tooth.

You crossed your arms at him, unimpressed with him as he looked around a bit. "What?" He asked, completely oblivious to your annoyance.

After a moment, you sighed and shook your head. "Name.."

Viper (Edge/Fell)- He.. He was forced to apologize to you genuinely by Domni after his brother had hung around you for while two weeks.

"I DON'T WANT TO! GET YOUR FLITHY HANDS OFF OF ME! SANS YOU ABSOLITE LIZARD!" A loud voice screeched out front from your house.

You were currently behind your house, talking with Talie and Envei at the lake at the back of your house. The boys sighed, parting goodbye with you as you left the water, them seeming to recognize the voice.

You'd been swimming to relax in the hot weather. The perk about living far off in the woods in near solitude? You could walk around in just a swimsuit without a Karen yelling at you or having the fear anyone would be watching.

As you rounded the house, wrapping a towel around your shoulders, you caught sight of Domni flying off. Quirking a brow some, your gaze landed on the half skeleton throwing a hissy fit as he waved his arms up and down angrily.

"YOU GODDAMNED, ABSOLUTE SWINE! I'LL KI..LL...YOu.. sans.." His, rather loud, voice fell to a whisper as his own gaze landed on your form.

His face flushed a nice shade of crimson as his pinprick trailed down your body, watching water slide down your skin.

During this, you took in the sight of his large snake lower half. Ruby red with black scales speckled here and there. Was that.. A pink underbelly?

Unlike him, you hand the decency not to state for too long. After a moment, you rose your hand to cough awkwardly into it as he finally shook himself from his trance.

"HUMAN! I AM THE GREAT AND TERRIBLE VIPER! MY BROTHER HAS BROUGHT ME HERE TO APOLOGIZE FOR TRYING TO ATTACK YOU. HOWEVER, I REFUSE AND HE CANNOT MAKE ME!" He declared, crossing his arms and looking away as his blush started to die down.

Watching him a moment, you outstretched your hand. "Name." You said simply, which made him gaknced at you and then do a double take.

"EXCUSE ME?" He asked, trying, and failing, to mask his tone of confusion.

"Name," You restated. "That's my name, Viper." You shook your hand some, as if to bring his attention back to it as he slowly pulled his own from his pouting and shook yours.

With that, you moved passed him and towards your door.

"HUMAN! WAIT!" He called as you opened the door. "TOMORROW. MIDDAY. JOIN ME FOR SOME TEA." He.. Offered? Ordered? Either way, he was too intimidating to say no.

Centri (Black/SwapFell R)- You ended up meeting him after your tea meeting with Viper, actually.

Walking back from Vipers cave den at the base of the cliffside when something straight up duve bombed you to the ground.

"GOD DAMMIT! IT'S YOU AGAIN! ARE YOU TRYING TO GET YOURSELF KILLED?!" A loud voice yelled at you, making you wince some from the vokume as the weight got off you.

Sitting forward, you were greeted by Feathers, the guy who pushed that very weird skeleton off of you that first night.

"WELL?" He squawked, eyeing you like an upset parent, including crossing his arms as his wings folded behind him.

"I-I.. U-uh-um.." You stammered, looking down. He sighed, pulling you to your feet.

"ARE YOU CURIOUS, COURAGOUS, OR JUST PLAIN STUPUD?" He asked, before continuing without waiting. "NO HUMAN IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD CONSCIOUSLY AND WILLINGLY STAY IN THIS FOREST! I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED HUMANS TO HAVE SOME SENSE, BUT AP-" "Thank you." "-LY YOU- .....WHAT?"

"Thank you." You repeated.

He stared at you a moment, slow to processing this.

"For saving me that night," You elaborated. "I might of died if it weren't for you."

This made a deep blush rise to the surface of his face as his sockets widened and he stammered. Did his wings just puff up?

After he regained himself seeing you laugh a bit, smiling some, he crosses his arms and looked to the side with his sockets closed. "O-OF COURSE! I COULDN'T LET AN I-IDIOT HUMAN LIKE YOURSELF DIE! YOU'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG SO FAR."

Was that a compliment? An insult? Was everyone here confusing?

Monsters were supposed to be evil and bloodthirsty.. Well, Viper did try to kill you..

"IT WAS YOUR FAULT." His voice echoed in your head.

He then dropped his stubbornness in his stroked ego and stuck out a hand. "CENTRI. THE GREAT HARPY CENTRI."

Harpy? Weren't harpies all female? And were their wings attatched to their arms? Why were you questioning? Everything was weird and confusing here.

"Name." You responded.

Centri scoffed. "What?" You asked.

"NO TITLE? *SIGH* YOU HUMANS AREN'T ANY FUN. THE MARVELOUS NAME? THE AMUSING NAME? NOTHING?"

You gave him an odd look. "Those make me sound like a kids show magician." You commented, which made him laugh some.

"THE AMUSING NAME IT IS."

"W-what?"

Relib (Mutt/SwapFell R)- Most likely the only -partially normal- one of the group when it comes to meeting him.

You really needed a chill day..

Talie and Envei were constantly trying to get you to explore the far ends of the forest with them. Taif and Mono.. Were pretty chill. But those reptile brothers were constantly on your ass about doing something, agreeing with one and not the other, deciding who's right and who's wrong, who woukd hang at with you at one day and the other.

They were exhausting, and it was hard for you to say no to them, especially being new neighbors.

So, when you heard a knock on the door, you groaned some, sinking into your chair before the sound of the knock and outside processed. Quiet. Both of them. The knock was shaky, quiet, and the sound from your porch was.. Silent.

Standing, you approached the door and slowly opened it, revealing a.. Tall skeleton monster.

Gee, really narrows that down. But, this one had.. Two tails? And.. Ears? Was that a gypsy outfit?

The monster, upon realizing the door wss open, squeaked some as he straightened his posture. His fave was also flushed a rusty color..

"Hello?" You said after a moment, which made him jolt some before thrusting a thermos your way.

"H-here! Coffee!"

Taking the thermos, since there was seemingly no other option. "Thanks..?" What a strange fellow..

After you two stood there a moment, he finally seemes to break his awkward and tense shell. "I'm Relib!" He stated, pushing his hand to you to shake, which you did.

"Name," You replied, watching as he visibly relaxed.

"S-sorry.. I-its just.. I haven't seen anyone new around here in.. A while.." He managed out through a quiet voice as he fiddled with his hands, looking down at them. Aw.. His ears even folded down..

"It's fine, Relib. Why not come in?" You offered, to which he seemed surprised, before shaking nodding and giving a small smile.

Inten (Crooks/Horror)- Probably the most energetic out of all of them. And the most sudden heart attack you've ever had from shock.

You had just been walking in the forest, exploring, when suddenly you were in the arms of someone with wind rushing passed you.

Disoriented, you ended up looking down.. Only to see forest hundreds of yards below..

Squeaking, you clung onto whiever had you tightly as you finally processed them laughing and cheering.

"I've Caught A Human! Yes! Human!" The male voice cheered down to you, making you look up from clinging to him as he processed your scared look and his excited expression left to concern then sympathy as he.. Dive bombed down towards the ground before opening his large, black wings and flying through the trees.

"Better Human?" He asked, to which you nodded some, body tense from the stranger that just picked you up and took you so far high you felt like death and swooped down and carried you away.

It was then he came to his senses. "Oh! My Apologies, Human! I Could Have Thought Ren Had Killed You The Other Night.. Oh Well, Must Have Been Someone Else." His words.. Did not appease your spinning mind.

"Oh! I'm Inten! The Great Inten!" He introduced, landing on the forest floor as he switched to holding you bridal style instead of by the waust to his body. "So, Human. What Shall We Call You?"

"N-Name.." You manage, still dizzy from the suddeness of what's happened.

"Name.. Hm.. I Like It! Now. Would You Like Some Cookies?"

Ren (Axe/Horror)- It's.. Unconventional..

You honestly just wanted a calm night.. A relaxing weekend.. But every night a large creature was peering through the windows, scratching at doors or even trying to scale walls.

It was terrifying to say the least. And Mono just told you to stay inside and ignore it. It wasn't anything that could break in.

It always seemed like he was lying.. He said before he was to protect the land and the grounds owner, but he seemed to just tell you moments too late or just half hearted advice of safety, like he couldn't care if you died or not.

Then again you were a grown person and that was just anorher unnecessary chore added to his.

Well, after a few night you decides to hang out in the oorch and just admire the stars above from the porch. You never saw them in the city, and it was mesmerizing. Maybe that's why you nearly screamed at the creeping figure slowly climbing over the side of your porches banister and closing in on you.

Instinctively, you bolted for the door, but that snapped the large, large creature from their trance and pouncing on you as a scream tore from your throat.

This was it.. You were a deadman.. A goner..

Well.. Not exactly.

As you bid the world farewell, you felt a face pressed into your neck, giving in because there was no way this amount of strength could be broken from.

Well.. Death wasn't exactly in the near future.

Yes, a face was buried in between your neck and shoulder and a massive weight was on you, but.. No teeth sunk in, or claws drew lines down your body.

Instead, you heard a deep inhale and the weight of whoever was on you lessened as they relaxed.

Your fave flushed as your mouth released a squeak as a tongue licmed at your skin and a fluffy mass swept over your legs, which made a deep.. Purr? Growl? Chuckle..? Escape the beings throat as boney hands grabbed your shoulders as whoever this was sat up and held your -in comparison- tiny figure to their chest.

Looking up, you saw it was the same skeleton that attacked you up on the cliff side the first night, skull opening and all.

At seeing you look up to his face, a small grin broke across his face and his large eyelight softened as he nuzzled his nasal into your head.

Only seconds later did you see Mono, Al, Viper, Domni, and Inten appearing in the clearing with varying looks of concern on their faces that quickly melted to shock at your state.

A small human wrapped in the bulky arms of one of- scratch that! The most dangerous and unstable monster in these forests that seemed to just melt from that normally snarling and absolutely feral werewolf.

When you reached towards your friend group as a silent plea for help, Al stepping forward with immediately made the skeleton holding you snap his hesd up as his single eae folded back and he bared his sharp teeth while tightening his already strong grip around you, threatening anyone that got closer.

Al got the message and tool two steps back, which made the wolf holding you turn away some.

"Brother!" Inten suddenly gasped, as if processing finally what's happened. "What Are You Doing?" He asked, partially exasperated as he approaches the living prison holding your frame without a hostile wanting this time.

When Inten tries to reach for you, his brother only tugged you away and wrapped his large around around you more while hunching over, before lifting his shirt and pushing you into his ribcage and even zipping up the puffy jacket he wore to ensure your stuck.

"Brother! You Can't Just Keep That Human!" Inten scolded lightly, his vocie muffled by the barriers.

It was pretty warm in here.. And oddly comfortable.. But.. A red light illuminated the area. Looking up, a floating heart was above, cracked. Something told you not to touch the heart at all.

"HUMAN! WE'LL GET YOU OUT SOON!" Vipers loud vocie called from afar.

"We'll Have To Wait All Night Now.." Inten huffed.

"Dammit Ren.." Mono's voice came, a harsh, barely mutter.

Well.. Lets say when you woke up, a whining and desperate werewolf was searching for you while Mono secured windows and doors.

Reaching for the Stars

@deals-and-the-chipped-cup

Belle packed mostly books, plus some clothing and toiletries, some things Dawn likely forgot, such as a toothbrush, socks, and underwear, a fully loaded kindle, and, of course, more books. She knew logically she likely wouldn't have much time to read on a whirlwind tour throughout the universe (the whole UNIVERSE!) But she liked having her books along, just in case.

She noticed on her way back to the TARDIS that there were a number of couch cushions missing, and Belle highly suspected Dawn and her wannabe space-pillow-pirate pal to be at work...

But Dawn didn't have many friends. In the Dark Castle they had been entirely isolated from most of the Enchanted Forest, and when the curse broke most people were not overly eager to befriend the Dark One's daughter, or a little girl who had a tendency to catch things on fire whenever she expirienced powerful emotions. So Belle decided to ignore the missing pillows. (Though she would tell Dawn to put them back when she was done).

--

The Doctor smiled and nodded to Nezon. Generally amphibious beings liked to be near the water. She wouldn't mind if he chose to bed down right there in the pool room (Anyway, salarians didn't need much sleep to begin with).

The TARDIS finsihed it's analysis of Rumplestiltskin. The parasite had thoroughly immeshed itsself with his cells, but it was definitely a parasite of some kind with its own intelligence and agenda... But it didn't seem alien! The biomarkers (such as they were) seemed to originate entirely from Earth. Which seemed strange! The Doctor had been all over this planet in all time periods and had never encountered anything like it!

But the question was, could it be extracted without harming the host? And if so, could it be contained?

Belle stepped aboard the TARDIS proper. It wasn't just bigger on the inside, it was... "This has got to be a portal to different realm!" She said.

"Nope. Bigger on th inside" The Doctor explained. "That would be part of the "Relative Dimension" bit."

"The what?"

"Relative Dimension. You know, Time and Relative Dimension in Space"

"I'm sorry?"

"Don't be. No one else gets it either. Anyway, you're husband's on deck 3, I think. Everyone about ready to be off then?"

--

Dawn jumped a little when Kretin tapped her foot, but then she smiled at him and winked conspiratorially and pushed open the TARDIS doors, scurrying to the room she had dubbed the "pillow fort" room, with her arms now also full of a load of pillows from the livingroom.

Voidraven Renovation - Complete!

After a little bit of time languishing, the Voidraven is finally complete!

It was, granted, complete some time ago, but a few problems in its original design caused warping in its wings which needed fixing. I was also never 100% happy with the crew, so I;ve updated both!

The only major difference is the wings, now no longer fully connected by hosting a collection of magents! This allows me to remove them for transport, which was most of the problem with the warping (because they were never flat). I’ve also been able to reinforce the wings with another layer of 0.5mm plasticard which keeps them more solid. Also allowed me to decorat them a bit more.

_________________________________________________

I’ve been working on a few terrain pieces recently (both my own and some club stuff), getting them bigger and better so that some of them actualy block line of sight, and otheer than that have finsihed a pair of new Scourge Solarites and nearly finished painting the Revenant Titan.

Given the “current issues”, my plan is to finish the Revenant before getting my Blackstone Fortress sets out again and finally finishing painting that up. I think I have plenty of time for that now.

Gum

Type:Heavy Smut

Pairing:Nikki×Reader

Y/n=your name

------------------------------------

"Hey, starry eyes" Nikki hollared and squinted his eyes at you and smirked at you from the doorway he was leaned up on with his arms crossed and a leather vest that revealed his abs and pecs with tats all over them. Once again you were starring at Nikki, god was he immaculate and muscular.

"Huh, oh hey Nikki" you shook your head coming back from your dream world

"Heh. I know something now" Nikki chuckled and headed into his room but before closing the door all the way "you really need to work on that ya know cuz its really obvious" Nikki then shut the door.

Tommy came up behind you from coming out of the studio "wow, guess its true huh?" You looked at Tommy confused "what? What's true what are you talking about?" Tommy patted your back and walked to his room shaking his head.

Mick came out of the studio humming "what are you humming?"

Mick stopped "a new song, I call it 'You are Falling for Nikki sixx' "

"What me? Come on really I'm only here to help out we are only friends"

"Eh heh, anyways you honestly should work on it, its obivous like Nikki said" Mick walked away with his hands in his pockets.

You spent the night thinking 'Nikki, really just friends nothing more plus I dont stare at him cuz he's hit its cuz his tattoos, shit I called him got, do I like him?.....' You looked over at your Poster of Nikki and the guys 'Fuck I fell for Nikki Sixx, he is fuckjng hot..shit'.

You now knew you like him, but dose he like you? I mean he is a flirty guy even with you but dose he really like you.

"Nikki?" You slowly open his door.

"Yeah y/n" Nikki was opening a new pack of gum, which once opened the room filled with the minty smell

"What did you mean earlier?"

".....nothing...just a..a joke ya know"

"You sure you didn't mean anything"

"Course not"

Nikki popped a peace of gum in his mouth

"Oh shit I should have told you earlier, your heater in your room doesn't work so you'll be crashing in my room, that cool?"

"Um...yeah do you have a air mattress?"

"Yeah its over there".

You settled down for the night. Nikki was so fucking adorable sleeping you honestly couldnt resist squealing goddddddd.

In the morning you woke up to a shirtless, pantsless Nikki on the bed asleep his hand was touching the air mattress which was touching your hand.

"Shit sorry y/n" Nikki woke up and put on some shorts and a tank top.

"No issue, Nikki" you rubbed your forehead as you woke up.

You followed the guys everywhere this day, to the shops, the meals, the studio.

But of all the things the studio was the last thing until the guys and you head back to the house they all stayed in for the time being, not a sketchy apartment. Which there are two studios the recording studio and the studio in the shated house just to jam in.

Things got juicy during this day. First of all at on of the shops Nikki was looking a dress up and down as he slightly srood back holding the side of it feeling the fabric with his shades down a bit "hey y/n you should wear this sometime, it looks nice"

You kept starring at his mouth as he chewed his gum, it was so attractive the way he chewed his gum, he always had either his sunglasses, his fingers or something in his mouth and with gum you melted at the sight of him in general and he became 10× hotter.

And to be honest about that dress you actually bought it. Then at some restaurant Nikki would spill water on him and you immediately grabbed a napkin and wiped his chest and leather pants down his thigh very close to the inner thigh, you could see the goosebumps on his arm rise as you wiped him down. And as he slouched in his chair slightly he had his four fingers spread across his crotch and inner thigh with hus thumb on his front lower stomach area then he would look over and wink st you.

"Thanks y/n, almost ruined my pants there" Nikki winked as he put the fork in his mouth and chewed his food with a smirk.

Something about his mouth just made you want to fucking die or want to fuck him either way there was something about his mouth that was just so attractive to you.

Finally at the studio for jamming in the shared housr Nikki sat in a rolly chair with his leather pointed shoes and "bad boys hollywood, .ca" tank top and leather pants, had his shoes on the desk area and had his arms crossed with one arm propped up holding a pen to his mouth before he moved it away he popped another peace of him in his mouth.

He chewed loosely in a way slacking his mouth a bit sleazy but with a sort of smirk and not smacking his gum but enough to hear a little bit.

"Sounds great Vince, lets head home now" Nikki got up and hugged you from behind and wrapped his leathet jacket around you "your gonna need this if your riding my motorcycle, unless you like it raw" Nikki had his hands running down your hips.

He walked into the hall looking back for a second. You stood there thinking and took off the jacket.

You walked out in the hall and sae Nikkis room door cracked open, you walked in and sae Nikki on the wall waiting for you.

Nikki grabbed your hips and pinned you to the wall as you wrapped your arms around him kissing him and thrusting your bodies until Nikki picked you up off your feet, still with your back on the wall Nikki had his forhead touching yours "so look is like you like to ride raw then" you pressed your lips on Nikki, he continued to kiss your neck cheekd and lips all while carrying you to the bed.

"I'll leave you shaking, you wont be able to walk for hours after this" he grinned Nikki kisses you.

You stake Nikkis shirt off and throw it to the side while his hands ravish your body heaf to toe, he toys with your breasts and holds your hips, grips your ass and pushes his crotch onto you as you both kiss.

He starts to remove his pants while you despose of your clothes. He lightly bites your ear before leaving a trail of hickies anf kisses down your neck and licking down to your underwear, Nikki hooks the a sides of your underwear with his tgumbs and.slides them down while looking at you submisivly.

Nikki licks your clit making you jolt and quiver as you grab a fist full of his hair and loudly moan. Nikki rotates back and forth right before you feel anything coming soon he switches and insets his tongue without any clue to what he was going to d and not telling you, suprising you every now and then.

Nikki licked and sucked your inner thigh and rubbed your legs as moans slipped from your mouth.

You were so close until Nikki got up and waited a second before he plunged into you without any warning, your lips opened and no sound came out but a small moan and peep.

"Just gonna say this now, get fucking ready"

Nikki was in and out slowly at first through every thrust and.push amping up the speed until your legs shivered and shook from the feeling.

Nikki would edge his tip at the end of every time he came close to pulling out and rubbed your clit mercicly and fast. Your body almost couldnt take all the pleasure your body was receiving.

Nikki was fast and hard you kept getting so close then Nikki would slow down and the pleasure that was building up and about to over-flow would go down and he would mame you wait. You couldnt hold it in so long but he made you and no matter how many times you thought he was gonna let you finish he didn't.

He was waiting for you to fully break. "Nikki Fuck oh god I'm gonna cum".

"Not yet, hold it in" he made you wait to long you were going to break sokn enough. Nikki made the hardest thrust then slowed down so slow and rubbed your clit with the edge of his duck slowly until you released more that have with any other guy.

Nikki had a evil grin on his face and chuckled "what about me? I'm not finsihed" Nikki didnt even let you finsih all the way through your high and plunged right back to it.

"Your gonna cum again no matter what" Nikki whispered into your ear grasling your ass as he fucked you hard.

"Fuck y/n your so fucking hot, fuck im gonna cum" Nikkis warm breath chilled your neck with goosebumps as you felt the pressure almost over boil in your stomach. "I want to hear how I make you feel, I want you to br as loud as you need to be" Nikki was on the verge about to break, ad you were to.

"Ahhh shit y/n fuck im gonna cum, I'm gonna cum, I'm gonna fucking fill you" Nikki moaned and groaned loudly as you felt your body explode with pleasure.

"Want some Gum?" Nikki offered kissing you and giving you a peace.

"Did you like that? Cuz i think you fucking loved it"

"I love you Nikki"

"I guess we think alike" Nikki smiled with his arm underneath your neck draping over your sholder lying doen besides eschother in bed.

You still loved watching Nikki chew his gum lying in bed.

Alcoholic chocolate and accidental confessions

So this was in my drafts for weeks cause i thought i posted it already whoops

This was just a fluffy mess istg its not even that good

So u and 127 are out for the weekend leaving only the dreamies in the dorm

Ofc they go fuckin crazy with just the five of them alone

10/10 nOt Taeyong approved

So one night chensung decides to sneak a peek in one of the hyung’s rooms

They sneek into ten’s room and start digging around

Not a lot of things really piqued their interest but chenle did find a box that he would rather have not found

But then jisung sees a box of chocolate in ten’s drawer

And of course they had to eat it cause, duh, its chocolate.

He and chenle go back to their room to dig in

And chenle ate a piece of chocolate while they were on their way

And he said “Jisung, something about this chocolate tastes weird. Do you think its gone bad??”

And jisung was like “no way its gone bad, it was barely opened when i found it!”

Jisung got a piece to prove chenle wrong but something did seem a little off about the box of chocolates

They were sitting in the middle of their room when it finally hit jisung

tHEY JUST FOUND GOLD

“Hey chenle, i think the chocolate has beer in it”

And chenle picked up the box to see what the ingredients were

And there in big red bold lettering said BEER INFUSED CHOCOLATE!

So of course they had to dig in

And every time they ate a piece of chocolate they just looked at each other with this look in their eyes

Like ‘doyoung aNd taeyong hyung would kick our asses if they saw us… bUT THEY’RE NOT HERE sO wHy NoT’

And after finsihing three out of the four layers of the box of chocolates

They definitely knew there was beer in that chocolate

Jisung looked at chenle who’s whole face looked like a tomato but like

A cute one

But hes never acknowledged those feelings soo

But chenle definitely looked cuter now with some alcoholic chocolate in his system

And jisung’s never felt an urge to kiss chenle as strong as how he did now

While his best friend takes another bite of his chocolate, rambling about something in chinese before giggling

Not really breaking out into the full on dolphin laugh that jisung finds so endearing

But its treading on that line

And then chenle stops and just looks at jisung

Their eyes making eye contact for longer than what should have been considered normal but

who fucking cares when its two in the morning and they could hear jaemin, renjun, and jeno trying to build a fort in the living room with everyone’s comforters.

This is exactly what goes through jisung’s mind before leaning closer to chenle’s face

His breathe a mixture of what jisung guesses is chocolate and beer

And suddenly their lips are pressed together

And he fully accepts that chenle is the most beautiful person in the world

With the softest lips in the world

He puts more pressure on the smaller boy’s lips and he could feel a chenle press back just a bit

It feels like an eternity but what was actually just maybe about five seconds

Before jisung pulls back and chenle was suddenly dashing through the door

And jisung thinks that he fucked up big time

Jisung wakes up with a headache and a heavy feeling in his gut

He looks to the other side of the room only to find that chenle didnt come back that night

And fuck he’ll have a lot of explaining to do

He paces around the room trying to formulate something he could say to make it less awkward

Like “Hey! So i know we kissed last night but dont worry we were both drunk and i dont really like you like that”

He was content with his speech in mind and made his way to the door

But before he could open the door chenle walked in with the biggest smile on his face

And jisung was wEAK

“Hey! Good morning” chenle hugged jisung and kissed his cheek and jisung was so confused

“You’re not mad?”

“About what”

“That we kissed last night”

“Why would i be mad?”

“Well you ran out on me last night and i thought you didnt like me that way”

“I ran out because i didnt want to throw up on your cute ass” Chenle said before breaking out into his dolphin laugh.

Jisung felt like this massive weight was lifted off his shoulders.

Before he could say anything else, chenle pressed a chaste kiss on his lips.

“So does that mean we’re…” chenle asks with a hint of red in his cheeks.

“If you want t-”

“Definitely”

Hello again <3

so i think im gonna write about my mental health today because i dont feel like i have anyone who understands fully apart from myself maybe so i need to Organise my Thoughts. as a kid i had a pretty normal childhood, a mum a dad and a brother - pretty nuclear right. but as a child i felt like my family maybe wasnt quite right, that this wasnt supposed to be what family is? perhaps. - i was scared of my mum a lot because she wasnt very understanding of me - and i was a great kid, never getting into trouble, very good at school, no issues whatsover. the thing that really shows how i thought of my relationship with my mum was when i was like maybe 8 or so having a parents night and at it my teacher had nothing bad to say apart from i was kinda bossy in group settings (im sure i dont need to explain how misogynistic that actually is- i was not bossy i was a natural leader) and when i got home my mum told me off for that and i felt like she was kinda cold to me and not taking all the good things about me into consideration when telling me off for that.

i feel like thats a really defining moment in my life when i realised i cant expect adults to Understand me, realised how people treat young girls, also started my defiant behaviour maybe or was kinda one of the key moments that made me dislike certain authorities in my life, that if people wont understand me regardless of how i explain myself then i wont bother trying to be understood by people who wont matter to me. anyway yes i was scared of my mum-like petrified sometimes- but my dad wasnt great either, he also had his shortcomings. i feel like he never really cared about me like he was kinda apathetic towards raising me like a parent - i feel he would be better suited as an uncle to someone rather than a dad - the funny childish guy that makes kids laugh -not the uncaring dad that cant be bothered to really learn about his kids. and i feel im sitting here complaining about my parents when the fact is that a lot of adults should never be parents, society has conditioned people into thinking the only way to be fulfilled in life is to live vicariously through your kids when life gets to such a boring and monotonous place where you feel the need to create a new life to spice things up lmao. i feel a lot of parents regret having kids but they cannot express that regret because it was their choice and they should deal with that, also saying you regret it would be pretty horrible to the kid.

so while yes i am complaing about my parents i dont think they were Bad in any way just not that great yaknow. also i just notice all these things growing up and i feel its been pretty impactful to understanding myself and my parents. also just some anecdotes from my childhood - i used to watch my dad play video games like the uncharted games i think theyre called, and whenever i got scared i used to hide behind the couch until the scary part was over (usually a lot of guns and high energy fight scenes thats too much adrenaline for a 7 yo) and sometimes when i would take out my dad/brothers game i would get them to fo the hard parts and do other stuff myself - i dont remember many games i played apart from one of the spidermen games where u could just web around the city and not progress apart from sometimes you would come across some strippers and i accidently got into a fight with them (also hot women with umbrellas they use to fight- maybe i went near them on purpose) i would yell to my dad and get him to do it for me. also on new years eve whenever my mum was working and we werent going to any family parties we would make a bunch of food and put it out in the kitchen - wed make like homemade onion rings, chips, have crisps and dips, and a bunch of junk basically and watch like austin powers or some shit and genuinely miss those times they were so simple. but a lot of thats tainted now from what happened. also my brothers always been annoying as shit but when we were kids we couldnt be in the same room without arguing which like whatever thats how kids are esp brothers and sisters for some reason.

i think thats majority of the background needed for the rest. wait this is a little addition but i meant to mention this here so ill put it in- basically sometimes on holidays i would geniunely think my parents hate each other/ were getting a divorce like once when we were in florida in 2012 my dad convinced my mum (as well as me and my brother convinced her since we liked them) we convinced her to go on a water slide thing that u had to walk up the stairs for, it was outdoors, and it was kinda tall and then we got in one of the big donut things and it swooshed from side to side a lot and was generally pretty scary i suppose for someone who doesnt like rides esp since you had to hold on to the handles there were no buckles or anything, and so when we got off the ride my mum was big mad at my dad and like wouldnt talk to him and stuff like that which was pretty uncomfortable to have to be the 8 year old mediator of that but there was also another occasion i think (maybe also at florida) where they were made at each other and i asked my mum if they were getting divorced and all she said was 'ask ur dad' like???? no sort of consolation to this child who thinks their parents hate each other nooo just petty 'ask him' and theres also been other times when they fight/ are mad and they dont feel the need to hide it from us so i felt quite anxious around my parents sometimes.

so ahnyway . yes. when i had just turned 13 my parents split up and it fucked me up in a multitude of ways. also i cant beleive i stopped being a proper kid at 13, like as soon as i turned a teenager life hit me like a fucking truck. so the context as to why they split is still kinda lost to me ngl but they didnt tell me much anyway since i was young but my mum basically said my dad didnt love her anymore and he wanted to separate. its kinda funny because leading up to this my dad had been sleeping in the living room for like a few weeks and there was on and off fighting i could hear and i basically thought they were fighting over me and that i was in trouble and it kinda used to keep me up coz i could hear loud voices when they thought i was asleep- which is probably the cause of why i get veryyyy mad and angry when i hear my mum at like 1 am downstairs when shes drinking and im trying to sleep, probably something ive internalised (is that the word?) and made me respond so strongly to those type of noises.

anywayyyyy yes i thought i was in trouble when they were actually just getting a divorce so ... yeah you can really tell i was young and didnt understand adult issues or really couldnt figure this out myself from all the arguing and him sleeping downstairs lmao. anyway my dad moved out and it was just me my mum and my brother now and at this point my brother wouldve been about to turn 18, so although still kinda shit, not really as affected my it as a 13 yo, just to keep in mind. so i was devastated obviously and my whole world was kinda shattered but i had to hold it together a bit, also i was sometimes my mothers own therapist having to say things like 'everything happens for a reason' 'itll get better' in response to her deteriorating mental health and her questions that would be really hard for me to answer like 'why did he leave' etc (bish im a child be there for me not wallow in ur own pity, u have ur whole life to sort this out youre an adult, im a 13 you and only months away from wanting to kms hun think of ur CHILD please) anyway this left me feeling like a burden if i were to share my mental state because when my mum shared her stuff she was burdening me (AGAIN i was 13 she is an adult) so that made me bottle a lot of things up also the fact that i had no one to share it with because she works as a nurse and now shes a single mother and so she works almost all hours of most days and i dont see her much, my brother was either working at this time or just didnt give enough of a shit about me to make sure i ate.

i went from being catered to for every meal because i didnt know how to cook to suddenly no one being there for me so i had to learn how to do it myself. needless to say that lead to a bunch of unhealthy eating habbits like eating the same things every day - frozen pizza, cheese toasties, i cant think of anything else probs because i didnt make anything else just ate chocolates or didnt eat breakfast coz i woke up at 2pm. just general unhealthyness both in substance and like how healthy that was for my head yk. also this is during the summer btw so it gave me the option to be incredibly depressed - im not saying that as an edgy teen thing to say im being 100% genuine i was very depressed like textbook style - not eating or overeating, not showering/ taking care of myself, extreme lack of energy and hated doing social things coz i had to put on a farce that i was okay meanwhile i couldnt wait to get into my bed and sleep the next day and a half away.

i very vividly remember at the start of the summer holiday my friend asked me if i wanted to go out and do something and i rememeber just crying at that because i had no reason to say no but i just didnt want to and felt like i couldnt do anything and so i lied and said i wasnt feeling well and then put my phone down and curled up in my bed and cried coz i was frustrated and upset and i couldnt really understand what was wrong with me and why i was Like This.

god i didnt take into account how tired i was and how late it is when i started this huh, this isnt even half of it, but i have obligations in the mornign, the last until uni or whatever so ill put this in my drafts and finsih it somethime. alrigtht it is 02:08 btw z_z. also ive just now decided im gonna re organise my tumblr so if this ends up being an actual blog thing i can navigate it easier by adding tags and such. anywau goodnight.

MY LAPTOP SHUT DOWE IN THE MIDDLE OF THSAT SO ITS ALL GONE BASICALLY I WAS DEPRESSED BURTNOUT GIFTERD KID AND IT SUCKED YADDa YADDSZ ANYTWAY

so

23:01- well. yes earlier i wrote a little about the ages 13-16 and how they sucked but whatever it got deleted the more pertinent stuff happened in the last year or so anyway.

um yeah so i started the last year of highschool as a 16 year old with a fucked up brain and never having learned any study techniques or work ethic in the slightest. i took 3 uni-level courses only one i actually wanted to do, most people take 2 at most or even 1/0 but do other classes. honestly it fucking sucked this year for school but i scraped all passes so thank god for that. so i started the year quite optimistic, or as much as i could be and in all fairness the content of this year wasnt actually that bad considering i was doing 3 hard classes but corona really truly fucked everything up and by November i had mentally dropped out of my classes but of course i still had to go to them. i feel like im an oddly independent teen because ive never had a solid parental presence in a while, like i had to do a lot for myself and maybe i should thank myself for getting me through it all because i really did pull through.

my thoughts keep drifting from what im writing coz i wanna talk about different things and im just thinking maybe i shouldve just posted the last one then added a reblog when i could be bothered to write and not force myself because if theres ever a reoccurring theme in my life is that if i force myself to do anything i will hate it with my entire being, so maybe i should just do a short synopsis and write about something else afterwards.

so i took 3 hard classes, slowly lost all motivation because in jan it switches to online classes and i could Not deal with those it was horrible, and i became more of a "troublesome student" in one of my classes *cough* maths *cough* and almost got "kicked out" of taking the class just because the teacher was a control freak but like wanted to control all of our actions and behaviour, also i think i may have adhd and another kid in my class i think he does too and surprise surprise the teacher "dislikes" him too but its only a farce because he doesnt actually dislike him its only so that i cant call him out for singling me out when other students behave "badly" too. but anyways maybe ill come back to this in a while when i can be arsed explaining my complicated relationship with my parents.

the only reason i wanted to write this today was so that i could tag the post with like june 2021 or something and not june/july, but i might make another post later, Anyway happy end of pride month i supose, hope u figure it out me!

Busy Day at the Office

Most days the office will have periods of business, typically after meetings, after lunch, and around 10am, but some days it seems like its a neverending stream of guys dropping loads. At around 11, a usually quiet time, I went into the men’s room and noticed two of the stalls were taken. As I passed the first one, I saw the IT guy, Mitch, on his phone and in the second stall was Jim, from my last story. 

I took the last available stall and had a seat. Jim finished up and someone quickly replaced him. I could tell by the shoes that it was one of the copy room guys. He sat down and immediatley began going. I heard a lot of crackling that sounded loose, but wasn’t complete diarrhea. Mitch wiped up and left, but within a minute, another guy took a seat. 

He pissed and released a lot of gas that just kept coming. I don’t think he shit, but the gas sounded extremely wet and he wiped up before heading out. Copy guy finished and began washing up at the sink. He stopped and dried his hands quick before rentering the stall he had just left. Before his ass fully hit the seat, I heard some diarrhea splash into the bowl. I finsihed up and left as the copy room guy was recovering. When I came in at 3 for a piss, I saw him in the first stall this time. He had the runs bad.

Chapter 2: A Language without Words, Part 4

A Life spared

         The 19th of February 1748 was a Monday. It was still frosty. But no new snow had fallen in the night before. When Fraser set off for his first inspection of the week, it was still slightly foggy. That morning he had planned to visit some farmers in Orndorf, eight miles from estate Balfenberg. The original settlement had grown significantly almost a hundred years ago by the influx of Huguenot refugees, which - through many Huguenot craftsmen - had brought some wealth and prestige to the former peasant village. The place had a small, but very beautiful white Huguenot church. It was also one of the few localities that had a school with several classes. The administration of this school lay in the hands of a teacher. His name was Henry Beauchamp, the descendant of a well-known Huguenot family. Beauchamp's ancestors were one of the first French immigrant families in this region and until that day they had been very influential in Huguenot community. Both buildings, the church and the school, formed the new core of the large village.

(”Altes Land”/heju)

        Fraser arrived at the first peasant’s house shortly before nine. Until eleven o'clock he had visited three other peasants. On his way back to Balfenberg, he rode through the village and then a short distance along the brook that passed by, when he heard the screams of a child. He steered his horse in the direction from which the cries came and realized that a child lay in the water of the river and was carried away by its current. He immediately got off his horse, hung the reins on a branch, jumped into the brook just in time to snatch the child as it was pushed past him. Shortly afterwards, Fraser climbed out of the stream, completely soaked and with the child in his arms. On the bank he was expected by some women who had seen what had happened. They wrapped the child and Fraser in their coats and brought them both as soon as possible to one of the houses nearby. There he and the child were supplied with hot tea, soup, dry towels, and new clothes. Shortly afterwards, a couple appeared, who introduced themselves to Fraser as Mr. and Mrs. Lefèvre. It turned out that they were the parents of little Ernestine Lefèvre, the child he had saved out of the brook. Only after his clothes and his boots were dried, Fraser could ride back to Balfenberg. There they all were already waiting with great anxiety for the return of the Bailiff and feared that a misfortune might have befallen him.

        Fraser briefly reported on what had happened at Orndorf. Then he asked to go to his room and to bed. The next day, he did not appear for breakfast and when Louise looked after him, she found him with a strong fever in his bed. While von Trebitsch sent a servant to Marschen to get the doctor, Louise tried to lower the fever with cold leg compresses. Shortly before lunch the doctor arrived and examined the sick Bailiff and instructed Louise how to take care of the patient. When the doctor came down the stairs, he was already expected by von Trebitsch.

        "Doctor Seltin, how is he? Will he recover? What can we do? Does he need any special medicine?“

        "Mr. von Trebitsch, the patient is young and strong, he will recover.”

        On the Baron’s face the relief was clearly visible.

       "I have advised Mrs. Ribonet, how to care for him. If she follows my advice, of which I’m convinced, then he will be better in two weeks. But I advise that he stays in bed for three weeks for total recovery. I will come back in a week. If something unforeseen happens, send someone, call me and I’ll come right away.“

        Louise continued the treatment with cold leg compresses. She gave him salvia tea to gurgle and fed him chicken soup. When he began to cough, she gave him a juice of honey and onions. It tasted disgusting, but Louise assured Fraser that it would help. And indeed, the pain in his throat soon became less and the cough disappeared quickly. Louise regularly ventilated the room and rubbed Fraser with the tinctures the doctor had left. At night she watched alternately with Grete Jakobi over the patient. Every now and then Pauline came and brought Fraser some hot soup, bread, cookies and fresh hot tea. One day, when she had fluffed up his pillows, she sat down next to his bed and said:

        "I bring you heartily greetings of family Lefèvre. They are very sorry that you are sick. They have asked me to tell you that they pray for your recovery, they and many others from the French community in Orndorf. All are so grateful to you that you saved little Ernestine.”

        Fraser smiled, then he asked:

        "Thank you. Is she well?“

        "She is very well. If you ask me, she’s too well. But they watch her very strictly and she is not allowed to leave the house alone.”

        He smiled and then fell asleep again.

(”Honig”/ Daria-Yakovleva)

       After two weeks, he was better, but as the doctor had advised, he stayed in bed for three weeks to recover fully. He used this time to read the books that Jakobi had left behind. He also ate again with von Trebitsch in the hall. One evening after dinner, Fraser mentioned his reading.

        "I’m happy, that you upgrade your knowledge. Is there anything I can do to support you in this?“

       "I would like to visit Mr. Sturmfels the book dealer when I’m going to Marschen the next time and ask him, whether there are more recent books on agriculture and cattle-raising and if, I would like to buy some, if that is possible.”

        "Sure, remind me, when you go and I’ll give you money. Is there something else?“

        "Hmm, I feel that I have to get to know the Prussian law better.”

        "Yes, that would be good. But when it comes to the law, I have everything here, what you need. Come with me.“

        The Baron led Fraser to the library next to his office.

       "Here, on this shelf, there are only books related to the law. This volume contains the valid Civil and Criminal Code. Take it with you and study it. Do not only read it, study it. Think about it and if you have questions, talk to me.”

        "Thank you, Sir.“

        "Come with me.”

        They went in the Baron’s office, where von Trebitsch took a key out of the drawer of his desk.

        "Here, this is the second key to the library. Take good care of it and whenever you need something, use it.“

        "Thank you. I would like to take the Civil and Criminal Code with me. And if you have some more ink and paper.”

        "Sure.“

       Some minutes later, Fraser dragged the Civil and Criminal Code up the stairs. Shortly thereafter, the Baron handed him a pile of paper and a bottle of ink. That same evening, he began to read the thick book with interest. It contained over 17.000 short articles, and covered areas of civil law, penal law, family law, public law, administrative law, etc.[1]

        While Fraser was sick and then recovered, the Baron himself had taken over the duties of his Bailiff. Louise and Pauline did not mention anything, but they were glad whenever he was out of the house. Since Fraser had become ill, von Trebitsch was obnoxious. In the first days it had been particularly bad. His behavior had only improved after it became clear that Fraser would soon be healthy again. So everyone on estate Balfenberg was more than happy as Fraser came finally back to work after three weeks. He was also warmly welcomed again by the peasants. The Baron had overseen everything well during his absence. He had, however, completely neglected the written administrative work, and it took Fraser nearly a week to get it up to date.

        After a few days, the daily routine returned. At the end of March it was still cold. Nevertheless, everyone at estate Balfenberg was preparing for the necessary work that the spring brought with it. In the morning Fraser rode out regularly to visit the peasants of the surrounding villages to inspect the herds under their shelter. On days when he stayed on Balfenberg, he planned with von Trebitsch and Heinrich Konrad, the head servant, how they wanted to use the farmlands and the willows this year. In their discussions, however, the expansion of the horse stables took a prominent place. Four mares had born foals in January this year, and two others were expecting. Behind the original stables there was still enough free land on which they could build more stables. Then there were some pastures, which were already used as horse-pairs and which could be extended to the west. In the autumn of the previous year, von Trebitsch already had his workers cut down large quantities of wood. Besides, he had had them get a lot of stones. The building material had been stored behind the stables so that the construction of the new stables could be started immediately when the weather warmed.

       Parallel to these plans, Fraser had everything prepared for the sowing. The plows and the harrows were taken out of the storages, freed from rust and sharpened. The crockery of the horses was cleaned and if necessary improved. The horses themselves were shoed. The work went according to plan and progressed well. The seed could be deployed in time and the construction work on the extension of the horse stables was started.

Note: [1] I like to inform my readers, that this part of the story is historically not correct. The compilation of the law mentioned here was ordered by Friedrich II. But that happened in 1780 and the work was not finsihed until 1793. It came into effect in 1794 and bore the title "Allgemeine Landrecht für die Preußischen Staaten" ("General Land Law for the Prussian States"). And yes, it is true: the code had over 17,000 articles, covering fields of civil law, penal law, family law, public law, administrative law etc. If anyone is interested, you find the whole Code here (german only): Part 1: http://www.koeblergerhard.de/Fontes/ALR1fuerdiepreussischenStaaten1794teil1.htm<br /> Part 2: http://www.koeblergerhard.de/Fontes/ALR2fuerdiepreussischenStaaten1794Teil2.htm
