Conversation I had with my friend regarding Wrestling Open (Thursdays 8 pm ET on IWTV):
Me: jfc this Alec Price in Trouble storyline is killing me lmfao. Creepy Cowboy (Steven Stetson) is a really bad top. He hasn't established any boundaries, made his expectations clear, or anything. He's like those 20-something "twue doms".
Them: omg yes
Me:
Stetson: Have I mentioned that I'm a top lately? HAVE I MENTIONED THAT I'M A TOP LATELY?!?!?!
Alec: You're garbage at this.
Please, someone join me in the wonderful, ridiculously entertaining melodrama that is Wrestling Open. I don't make gifs, but I want them.

Tumblr media
Turning a sharp corner your hip grazed against the cold cobblestone walls of the castle. Causing you to suck in a strong gasp of air. Rubbing your hand against the throbbing pain you felt something wet. Twisting your face up in confusion you couldn't tell what it was. There was a storm and the castle was as dark as it's ever been. The candles Cauis ordered to be lit every set of the sun for you weren't lit like they normally are. If one candle blew out, rather you were there or not he would have someone's head not long after.
"You smell delicious." You heard from no other than the exact one you were thinking about. Caius.
Still a little confused, your eyes widened. Blood. You were bleeding and Cauis was chasing you.
Resuming your slow steps turned into a fast pace run. Well as fast as you could. Your eyes burned with tears as you could hear Caius' steps quicken. Why was he doing this, you thought. Doesn't he love you? 
"Are you frightened little human?" Cauis hissed out with so much venom you could taste it. 
"Please stop-" You were cut off with a scream crawling out of your throat as a strong sound of thunder and lightning struck.
"Your fear reeks a phenomenal scent. I can't wait to taste you." He sneered out letting out a chilling chuckle. 
You couldn't stop the tear that ran down your cheek with his statement. All you could feel was your heart pounding in your chest, So much you thought it would run into overdrive and stop. With the halls darken you ran with what little memory you could collect right now.  Your brain was foggy. Your heart was hurt. And your face was stained with tears of fear. You never thought that you would die like this. The more you ran the more you realized that this was a loop. You had been running around in a circle this whole time and Cauis was still chasing you. 
"Help Me! Jane! Alec! Please don't do this Caius! You're scaring me!" You screamed out looking back for the first time since you started running.
 He was right there. 
Pricing red eyes stared back at you menacingly.
The only sound you could get out of your mouth was a gasp. He grabbed you by your arms in a tight unbreakable grip. So tight you thought your bones would snap. You never did take your vitamins as a kid you thought. Before you could say another word he bared his fangs and snapped down on your neck. You let out a strong scream. It was so loud it echoed and bounced off the walls. You could feel your own blood wetting your skin rolling down your once warm body. As much as you struggled you couldn't move. As much as you screamed you could no longer make sound. All you felt was your life being drained from your body. Mustering all of your strength you screamed the loudest you could with little life you had left. 
"Mio caro!? Wake up è solo un sogno!" A voice sounded.
Snapping your eyes open, you saw him. Screaming once against you pushed off of him blinded to your surroundings. You fell down onto a cold marble floor it hurt but you could care less right now. Anything to get away from him.
"Don't touch me! S-stay away from me! J-Jane! Where are you!?" You screamed out tears already rolling down your face. Still crawling away from Caius you kept your eyes on him the best you could with blurred vision. 
"What-" Cauis started but was cut off by your words.
"Don't talk to me, leave me alone! Jane! W-where's Jane!? Jane! Jane!!" You cried screaming at the top of your lungs. 
Everyone's attention snapped to the door as Jane busted through the door. Her piercing red eyes were filled with anger ready to unleash hell on anyone that dared to hurt what is hers. 
"What happened!" She snapped sharp eyes staring down everyone who was in the room. She saw no threat but that didn't mean there wasn't one.
You were in the throne room as you always were half the time. Everyone knew you loved laying upon the throne with Caius. You were often there with him during most trails. It was convenient because most of the time all of your mates were there also. So hearing your screams come from this room of all places put Jane on guard. 
"We don't know she was just resting as she always is, then woke up screaming." Marcus stated.
"She's very frightened and the first one so called out for was you. Go to her, Slowly.” Aro said making sure to speak softly.
She listened, making sure to take slow and soft steps towards you. When she was finally in front of you she kneeled down to your level as you had backed yourself into a corner. 
“Who scared you?” She asked, trying her best to not sound too demanding but failing miserably. 
You reached out and wrapped your arms around her tightly, crying hard.
“Please don’t let him hurt me.” You whispered into her neck. A whisper so low that she had to try to listen. 
“Who is trying to hurt you?” She whispered back wrapping her arms around you. Doing her best to console you as physical touch is still a hard thing for her.
“C-caius he bit me he was trying to kill me.” You said still shaking as the scene replayed in your head over and over again.
“Well I guess we know who won't be turning her.” Felix snickered, earning a shove from dem.
“Silence!” Cauis ordered, making Felix shut up immediately. His loud tone made you jump and brung more tears to your eyes. Jane continued to comfort you, whispering calming and promising words in your ear.
“Go on, tell me what else happened.” She beckoned.
“I was trying to run away from him b-because he was chasing me. I didn’t know why until I realized that I was bleeding and he wasn’t chasing me to help me. He was chasing me to bring more h-harm to me. I was going in circles and I couldn’t find a way out! There wasn’t a way out but I kept trying and trying but he still got me and- He drained me of everything inside of me.. I can still feel his bite. It hurts, why does it hurt?” You whimpered out sniffling every few words. You held onto Jane tighter in fear she would let you go.
It was silent for a while. No one in the room knew quite what to say. Or what you needed to hear. But the one thing they all knew was that no matter how much Cauis would threaten or yell at you he would lay down his life for you. And if he ever laid a harmful hand on you the rest of you mates would deal with him no matter the consequences. One little human held so much power. 
“It was just a nightmare, you're safe. He would never hurt you. And if he did I’d kill him myself.” Jane said firmly. 
Her words brung comfort to you. Jane never lies. Especially to you.  She always says that she has no time for lying. To which you always say she technically has all her life or death to lie. 
“Jane let me see her.” Cauis said leaving no room for arguing.
“Caius.” Marcus said in a warning tone.
“Do you want to face him? I’ll take you away if not.” Jane whispered in your ear. It took a little while for you to answer but eventually you did sadly. You truly weren't ready to face him but you didn’t want Jane to get in trouble for your newfound fear.
“It’s okay..” You said slowly as if you were trying to convince yourself. 
“Are you sure?” She questioned.
“I’m sure.” You said taking a deep breath when Jane parted from you. Though Jane was freezing cold her cold began to feel warm to you. So when she let you go you couldn’t help but feel naked under the eyes of everyone in the room. A shiver ran down your spine when you finally made eye contact with Caius. His red eyes were intimidating but not as threatening as the ones in your nightmares. In fact his eyes looked.. Concerned, confusion and hurt. That one was a kick to the chest. You hated seeing him hurt but you hated seeing you hurt more. 
“Come here.” Caius said watching you as you took very slow steps to you. Realizing your fear was truly real as you'd normally run to him full of joy. But now you shake with each step. You were never even this scared when you first met. 
Once you were standing in front of him he closed the gap between you two holding onto your hands. Your warm soft ones colliding against his cold hard ones.  
“You truly think I’d ever hurt you on purpose if at all? I’m offended by how lowly you think of me amore mio.” He frowned looking down at you. 
“It was- it felt very real.” You whispered looking down but that didn’t last long as he put his hand under your chin and tilted your head back up to face you.
“If you're frightened do not be cowardly in fear I will not accept it. Especially when I am aware of how fearless you are. It was a horrible dream, a nightmare. One that will never come true.” He said watching you with close eyes.
“I-” You were cut off with his next words.
“You should know that I would never hurt you on purpose. But eventually for you to be with us forever you will have to be turned. But it won't be painful for you. We will ensure it. Alec will use his power to make sure of it.” Caius stated as if this would make you feel better.
“You’ve been conspiring about my death behind my back?” You questioned furrowing your eyebrows.
“More like preparing. You're not getting any younger.” Felix said from behind you.
“Are you serious?” You questioned.
“We’d rather have you dead and with us rather than dead and gone bellissima.” Dem voiced softly in hopes you wouldn’t get upset with the rest of them.
“I feel like this is some type of gaslighting or manipulation.” You said, shaking your head.
“Nevermind that, do you feel better?” Alec asked, deterring your thoughts from this topic.
“I kinda do. I’d still like a little space from you though.” You said looking up at Caius. 
“Only a few days after that you're asking for ungiveable things.” He said letting you go but not before kissing you on your forehead making you freeze momentarily.
“Go get some rest.” He dismissed you.
As you walked away after standing there for a while Jane followed you and right when you grabbed the door Caius words made you stop in your tracks.
“ You shouldn’t be scared of me in that sense. You wouldn’t even be filling, you refuse to take your vitamins Carlisle insists you take.” He yelled out so you could hear. 
You couldn’t help the small laugh that came out of your mouth knowing how true that statement was. For the next few days Jane followed you everywhere. Always on your heels. Sleeping with you, feeding next to you, If she knew you were having a bad dream she’d wake you up right away and take you out for a walk. All until you felt comfortable to be alone with Cauis she was right there by your side. 
And when you finally felt comfortable enough you saw how bad Cauis was taking it through his paintings. He was afraid you would see him as a monster. He knew he was but he never wanted to be that in your eyes. You spent the next few nights showing him how fearless you were of him. Wink wink.

Alec I'm so severely unwell over that drabble you wrote, I'm like super emotional about it please-
I wanted to make Nik into catty asshole who is trying to push your buttons and make you jealous maliciously but like...the idea of him just teasing both you and John is better almost.
Like sure part of him is jealous and he can't help but to be little petty but for the most part he is just pushing your buttons for the sake of riling you up. Even better if he sees that you and John are in love with each other but neither you or John see it. And he's little hurt sure, he doesn't exactly see why John would pick some punk ass rookie over him but as long as John is happy...
And he knows John most likely won't make the first move because John is probably all types of upset because he fell for someone he took under his wing to keep safe and take care of so Nik does everything he can to make you jealous (he totally plays into your hot-headed nature) so you'll finally confess.
At some point absolutely everyone is aware it and is just waiting for something to happen because holy fuck can Captain and rookie just fuck already? Why do they keep dreamily staring into each other's eyes while we're trying to have mission briefing?
For extra angst, imagine you finally finally deciding to confess, probably after drinking and getting all hyped up and you come to John's office and you're about to know but... John is there with Nikolai and maybe they're fucking, maybe they're just having sweet moment, maybe it's just misunderstanding on your part. Whatever it is, it doesn't mean anything but to you it does because it just reaffirms that John isn't yours.
I imagine it's not until everyone gets hammered or near death situation that confession finally happens tbh.
-🔮
Okay hear me out
Nikolai wasn’t stupid. He was aware that Price likes you, not because he had told him so, because the Russian is sure that the other man would rather die than answer honestly to that question
But he could see the way price acted around you, the way he talked to you, the way he behaved nothing like when Nik and him were together.
Price and Nik had met in their early teens, Price thought Nik was his first and last love Nik, simple put, didn’t feel the same.
Sure he loved Price, dont get it wrong, but there was so much to the world than being bound to one person for the rest of your life.
So they decided to break up, only ever hooked up for the sake of old times or the surge of adrenaline that came after a mission.
Price was so hung up over Nik, the Russian never though he’d get over him but one day the rookie became all he talked about, most of their hm-meetings got called off because he needed to be with rookie for the night.
Nikolai was sure Price would fess up any time soon but Price didn’t, instead he played stupid every time he got asked about it.
So he tried another approach, targeting you by making you jealous in hopes of that being enough to make you fess up but instead it pushed you further away.
Nik almost pulled his hair out, flying a plane was much easier than getting two people together so he gave up, let universe handle it instead.
In the meantime 141 was up your ass about it, telling you that it’s so clear that the captain reciprocates your feelings.
For one second you had allowed yourself to believe it. With one too many drinks in your system you had stumbled over to Price’s office in an attempt to confess your feelings.
However what you saw had shattered your heart.
Stupid, stupid so stupid you think to yourself tears trickling down your cheeks as you sprint to you room, far away from Price’s office.
Of course Price didn’t return your feelings he was busy getting fucked by the man he was actually in love with.
Yet you had allowed yourself to be persuaded, had let 141 convince you that Price reciprocated your feelings.
However what you don’t see is Price’s attempt to run after you only for Nik to stop him.
“What is he going to think? Fuck!” Price says kicking the trash can laying around in his office, still half naked.
“John cal-“ Nik tries to say but gets interrupted by the older man.
“Don’t Nikolai just please leave, please? I would like to be alone for a moment”
Nik wants to argue but instead he lets out a sigh and picks up his clothes off of the floor, quickly dressing himself before walking out through the door.
“You should tell him you know?” Nik says with a smile on his face. Price doesn’t even get to spit out an impromptus lie about how he doesn’t like you in that way before Nik is walking away.
The opportunity to talk doesn’t come around. His days are filled with missions and his nights are filled with paper work that just seem to be piling up and when the two of you have some sort of interaction Price doesn’t even know what to say because it’s not like the two of you are anything in the first place.
He did nothing wrong by fucking Nik he was just lonely and tired of pining for the man who doesn’t even seem to noice him. But then that very same man walked in at the wrong moment and everything came crashing down on him.
Stupid stupid so stupid, Price thinks to himself as he sulks in silence.
Weeks have passed after that incident, the two of you are distant as ever.Price thinks that maybe it’s meant to be this way, you weren’t even anything in the first place.
But just as the thought pops up in his head there’s blood - your blood splashing across his face and you’re falling to the ground while he rushes towards your bleeding body
You’re muttering i love you’s while he’s carrying you to the emergency room and Price is repeatedly saying that he won’t say it back not yet because this isn’t a goodbye and if you’re going to confess your love for him you have to ask him out on dinner first, you have to be alive and well when you do it, goddammit!
Spitball w/ me?

Magnus + mundane gadgets
Youtube shorts are too addictive and I have been caught in a spiral of those (send help!), BUT, they have unlocked a new headcanon:
Magnus buys the most ridiculous things on the internet (and uses them!), mostly for fun, but also to support creative minds.
things like these:
youtube
He will be like: "This is absolutely ludicrous. … I must have it!"
Alec regularly comes home to lots of boxes stacked up either in front of the door, or in the living room.
Magnus: "Look at all this funky stuff the mundanes have come up with now!" gleefully unboxing and trying things out
Alec: "… Stupid mundanes…" though does smile softly as he watches Magnus have a blast going through all the things he knows Magnus will ultimately gift to friends or donate to charity
There is no rhyme or reason to the kinds of things Magnus buys.
From the highly priced and actually useful, to the completely stupid and unnecessary gadgets, nothing is off the table.
Alec, helping with unboxing: "Magnus? I think you got scammed. There is just a rock with some googly eyes in here."
Magnus: "Oh! The pet rock! I thought that would take longer to ship."
Alec: "I'm sorry, a pet rock?"
Magnus: "Yes. Look at it. Isn't it fun?"
Alec: "You paid someone to ship you … a rock."
Magnus: "Not just 'a rock'. A 'pet rock'!"

Hey! So how do you think Alec would react to his mate being a metal head? 👀 like they listen to shit like Slipknot, Korn, Of Mice and Men, Motionless in White, Deftones, Black Sabbath, Motörhead and they go to concerts n all that. Like do you think him or any of the other members of the Volturi would vibe with it or nah? — 🕷️
So, this was a little hard for me because I'm not a fan of metal. HOWEVER, that doesn't mean that Alec or none of the other members of the Volturi aren't. And while this has some focus in metal, I tried to make it general for other genres too.
Tumblr media
Music Headcanon - Alec
Tumblr media
So, if there's one thing to know about Alec is that he is a huge collector of both books and music.
He even learned to play various instruments.
Although he does favor the piano since it helps both him and Jane relax.
Edward totally copied him.
He likes a wide range of music, alternative being his fav.
He loves collecting vinyls and was rather pissed when they stopped producing records for a while.
But he does enjoy having instant access on his phone now, too.
Now, metal in particular.
He could take it or leave it. It's neither here nor there.
He's more of an alternative person.
Metal was more of a Demetri thing.
Jane and Felix positively hate it.
However, since you've come along he's taken more of an interest.
It's still not his favorite.
BUT it's something his mate loves and enjoys after all.
He loves watching you bop around to your favorite songs.
He steals your phone all the time to search for new music.
He even sneaks a peek to add your favorites to his list.
He'll also send you new songs if he finds something he thinks you haven’t heard.
Which, let's be honest, is rare. You've heard quite a bit.
But you add it to the list you've made just for songs he's sent.
Anywho.
The latest album of your favorite band comes out?
It's in your hands the same day.
Want to go to a concert?
He's got you premium seating and VIP tickets to meet the band.
He'll even invest in the best earplugs he can find so he's right there with you.
The only thing he won't let you do is a mosh pit.
He's too protective if something were to go wrong.
Someone draws blood, even just a knick by accident, they're dead.
Eventually he makes you your own little corner in his music collection.
He'll be on the hunt for rare albums you want.
No price is too high.
All-in-all, if it makes you happy, he will do his best for you.

Could you do a continuation of the prompt where Trueblood Alec got summoned like an angel?
here we go! okay so this is officially tilted 'devotion across worlds' because it's alec fucking trueblood and you know he and is shadows are going to be little shits until he gets home. even if he does have a soft spot for Magnus Bane's in general, he has a very specific one that he wants to crawl home in bed with.
i hope you enjoy <3 lumine
-
“You’re not Magnus.” His angel says and it’s the first thing he says when he wakes up. It’s clear he’s no longer disoriented and he’s looking at Magnus differently now, his eyes filled with dark wariness and Magnus sighs, because this could be going so much better.
“I am Magnus.” He retorts, because not even an angel gets to deny who he is, even one as beautiful and enchanting as this one.
“Not my Magnus—” his angel bites back after a moment, looking even more unsettled at the prospect that Magnus is indeed, some form of his Magnus.
“Terribly sorry to be myself.” Magnus teases and it earns him a flustered scowl and he can see a hint of pink on his angel’s ears.
He’s so utterly charming and Magnus wants dearly to find out how to keep him here, because surely if an angel is so devoted to one version of him, he could learn to care for another.
It’s with that thought in mind that Magnus begins to plan.
“If I get you a glass of water, you won’t eat it, will you?” Magnus checks warily, because he hasn’t forgotten what his angel said, and he’s met with a bewildered, insulted look.
“No? Why would I eat a glass of water?”
“Well excuse me for asking,” Magnus says dryly, summoning and handing him one, “you’re the one who told me you ate a cup.”
His angel jerks, water sloshing over his fingers and Magnus is about to helpfully dry him, when something dark reaches out plucks a napkin off the tray. Wiping his angel’s fingers and wrists like Magnus had wanted to do.
“Fuck—” he mutters and it’s Magnus’ turn to be shocked.
“An angel using mundane swears!”
“Wha— oh, the wings. No, I’m not an angel, Magnus. I’m just a nephilim. My name is Alec Trueblood, I’m the Head and Commander of the New York Institute in my world.” He sounds utterly confused, as if he’s never had to explain this before, which means that it’s something normal where he’s from.
“So nephilim have wings in your world?” Magnus asks curiously, wondering what other differences there are and he turns back just in time to see Alexander choke on his water again.
“No just me, it wasn’t exactly on purpose, and it can’t be replicated.” Alexander mutters and around him the shadows writhe and Magnus wonders if they’re connected to whatever has given this lovely angel his wings.
“And you know me.” Magnus tries, sliding closer and giving a smooth smirk as he reaches out and boldly runs his fingers over Alexander’s arm.
“I know my Magnus.” Alexander says, stepping away. Like he isn’t practically taunting Magnus with the possessives coming off his tongue, “who is going to be very irked that I’m missing our date. This is the second time I’ve canceled this week.”
“Surely he’ll be understanding.” Because Magnus couldn’t imagine being upset at a delay in a date if the date was with Alexander.
“He will be, until he realizes I got summoned somewhere and then he’s going to be in an utter mood.” Alexander looks warily around himself, as if he’s still not exactly sure how to feel about what’s going on. “He doesn’t mind if I miss dates because I’m busy. He hates when I miss a date because someone else interfered.”
“Well, crossing worlds and dimensions is a bit tricky, especially in such a seemingly permanent manner.” Magnus waggles his eyebrows and gets a stern, unimpressed look though he sees a hint of softness in hazel eyes. Clearly, despite his best efforts, Alexander isn’t wholly unaffected by another version of whatever Magnus is to him in the world he’s from. “I’m happy to help you darling, for a price of course.”
“The price being?” Alexander asks him, wary and dry as if he doesn’t trust Magnus.
“Your delightful company as long as you’re in this world, and perhaps a kiss from an angel for a little divine luck?”
“Still not an angel, Magnus.” Alexander mutters but he’s looking at Magnus consideringly and then he sighs, stepping forward and sealing that last bit of space between them.
Magnus is delighted and a little surprised by how easily this is going but then, instead of an amorous, heated and perhaps even angry kiss — he’s being chastely, sweetly kissed at the corner of his eye.
His unglamoured eyes are staring at Alexander in shock as he pulls back and then leans forward to kiss the corner of the other eye.  Then Magnus’ face is being cupped by large, calloused and oh-so gentle hands as his forehead is tenderly kissed as well.
“There, it’s not divine but it is a ritual for good luck kisses.” Alexander looks a bit wary but there’s also the tiniest hint of pink on the shell of his ears, hidden behind his hair. “Ragnor taught me it when I was little and when I met my Magnus, well he’s never disagreed.”
Magnus can’t even unpack everything about that sentence because of course his Magnus never disagreed.
Not when even Magnus himself can recognize such a specific trio of kisses.  It seems some things are truly the same, including the comforting habit Ragnor and Cat both created, when Magnus was at his lowest and hated his eyes the most.
To be touched this gently, this tenderly and sweetly from someone not them and know that even this small bit of affection is sincere, is almost too much for Magnus.
Especially when he knows that Alexander is staring directly into his golden eyes and not flinching or looking away.
Alexander steps away and Magnus has to fight himself to let him, because now he has to rethink everything. If that other Magnus is anything like himself, then he’s not going to want to let Alexander go, and Magnus is going to have to figure out if he’s going to end up fighting himself.
Because Magnus doesn’t have to know what exactly Alexander and his counterpart are to each other.
He wants it.
Whatever it is, whatever he can take and get of it, he craves it desperately.

Effy, Yota Tsuji, & Alec Price vs Kris Wolfe, MJF, & Io Shirai
As Effy makes his way out from the curtain, once again to another big reaction from our MPW fans, Effy one of the most popular superstars in MPW, it does mean that he’s unable to hear the fans in the front row warning him above the cheers, as from behind the curtain immediately come Kris Wolfe and MJF, MJF with a chair in his hands, cracking it over Effy’s back! It seems The Fallen didn’t have much interest in a fair fight tonight, instead just electing to take out one of their greatest adversaries! 
Io Shirai comes strutting out from behind the curtain as well, half side eyeing her tag partners tonight, not too interested in helping beat up Effy tonight, but she suddenly hears footsteps behind her, and as she turns around, Alec Price comes charging, launching himself, and taking out Io Shirai! Kris and Max’s head’s whip around, and out comes Yota Tsuji, carrying a pipe, maybe not expecting to make his MPW debut this way, but he appears as down for the cause as someone who’s been in MPW for years, defending Effy by taking a pipe to the gut of MJF! MJF drops to his knees, clutching his gut, as Kris Wolfe and Tsuji start trading forearms down the ramp, heading to the ring! Our six man tag team competition has turned into an all out fight here! 
Kris and Tsuji continue to brawl up the ramp, before Tsuji catches her with a headbutt, and throws her into the ring. Kris Wolfe rolls into the ring as Alec Price climbs up to the top rope, looking for a Hood Stah Stomp, but as he launches himself, Kris rolls out of the way, forcing a miss! Kris charges and drops Price with a big boot, but as she turns around, she lost track of Yota, who crushes her with a Gene Blaster! Kris Wolfe cut in half! 
MJF seems to take exception to that, and seemed to have retrieved the pipe Yota brought out here with him tonight, and nails Yota Tsuji in the head with it! MJF just brained Tsuji! 
Max marches around the ring, twirling the pipe, watching as Alec Price gets up, before Max drives the pipe into his gut as well! Price gets knocked down by MJF now, absolutely going to town with that pipe! 
Max turns around to see that Effy had gotten back into the ring, and was apparently ready for a fight now! Effy goes to charge Max, but Io Shirai, apparently finally in the mood to join the fight, grabs Effy’s foot! Effy turns around to kick at Io, but catches the pipe to the back from MJF! MJF throws the pipe away and drags Effy into the middle of the ring, locking in the Salt of the Earth, the armbar, trying to rip Effy’s shoulder out of socket practically! Effy’s screaming in agony, Max trying to rip his arm apart!
Suddenly, down the ramp comes former MPW Academy Grad Alice Marcella, rumors swirling the other day that she’d also be involved in the Ace in the Hole Ladder Match, and it looks like she’s coming out here to try and safe Effy! Alice rolls into the ring, and starts hammering away at Max, stopping the hold and getting Max off of Effy! Alice continues to beat down on Max, before she turns to hit the ropes, but suddenly she gets cut in half by a spear from Kris! Kris Wolfe back on her feet now!
Kris helps Max up, and points at the downed Marcella. “Lets teach this brat what happens when she steps in my ring. Get a chair, I’m ending her.” 
Max does as he’s told, grabbing two chairs from outside the ring, sliding one in to Kris, and sliding in with his. Max wraps his chair around Alice’s head, as Kris smirks, raising her chair high above her head, someone needs to stop this before Alice gets seriously hurt!

"What makes you think they’re alone?" - For Alec
Answered from here [X] @sovereigntism
Tumblr media
Alec was honestly surprised by the fact that the men who had him cornered ran off just by the fact that someone else showed up.  But also he knew how low some people were.  He gave a quick glace over the stranger who just helped him.  While they didn’t seem dangerous, one in his position could never be too careful.
“I suppose I owe you thanks.”  The quicker he could get out of this situation the better it would be.  “And I also suppose that you want a reward.  Name your price.  I’ll easily be able to send it to you.”

This is for accidentally attacked
“I put a tiny spell on them.” Alec got scared that Magnus purposefully damaged his bow and quiver somehow. His parents had taught him from a young age to never trust a downworlder. “Don't worry Alexander, the spell I put on them did no harm to them at all. It was a simple accuracy spell. Basically whenever you use your bow and quiver from now on they will be more accurate. It will help you hunt demons a lot better. I am also working on something else but that will be much later.” Alec felt so bad for even thinking that Magnus would damage the weapons in the first place. He tried to suppress the happy feeling he got when Magnus called him Alexander. “Thank you Magnus.” Robert had told Maryse that he was going for a walk and would be back soon. He had no idea how his wife would react if she knew he was going to see Magnus Bane to thank him for saving Alec. Robert hesitantly knocked on the door to the apartment. He knew that Magnus wouldn't be thrilled to see him, given what Robert did to Magnus the last time they met. He didn’t expect the warlock to open the door with a flirtatious smile on his face, clearly expecting someone else. That smile quickly disappeared though when he saw Robert at the door. “You are not the lightwood that I was expecting to see, nor the one I wanted to see either. What do you want, Robert?” Robert thought for a second that it could have been Alec that he was expecting. He shook the false thought away and focused on what he wanted to say. “I came here to say thank you for saving my son's life last night. And to let you know that I am willing to pay whatever price you have for what you did for him.” Robert noticed Magnus shaking which meant that he was low on magic. “What makes you think I would have a price that hasn't already been paid?” Robert was confused, not knowing what Magnus had Alec do as payment and was scared to ask. “Are you saying that my son paid whatever price you had?” Robert was even more confused when Magnus scoffed and rolled his eyes.

Alec had noticed Seth a few times when he'd went down to the kitchen for a mid day snack between clients, but Seth was always too busy cooking to ever approach. The last thing that Alec wanted would be to distract him and fuck up whatever he had going on, but tonight seemed like the PERFECT time to introduce himself (because why the hell not given how gorgeous Seth was). Alec walked over, drink in his hand as he took a sip, "how's it going tonight?" He asked, soon remembering the token system, "we're supposed to be passing these out for favors, so how about a kiss to get the night started?"
Seth blinked as someone came up to him. And he couldn't help but to grin and laugh as he heard the other man's words. "Ah, a hefty price for a kiss huh?" Seth asked with a giggle. "My night's been going good. How about yours?" Seth asked before leaning forward. He let his lips softly press against the other man's, a small blush on his cheeks as he pulled back. "How was that?"

Happy Friday ^-^ I hope you've all made it into the new year okay! or that you will, if you're in a place where the turn of the year hasn't happened yet 🎉
Today's throwback is to a moment that has been fic'ed to the moon and back (but not to death, because you can never have too much good fic) - The moment when Alec asks Magnus to advocate for Izzy during her trial - and what happens after, if Alec had agreed to Magnus' first price.
Have a peek at the first couple paragraphs of One Night (to Change the World):
“So, since as you all say, the law is the law, there’s no stopping me from slipping through this gaping loophole – for the right price.” Magnus is aware he’s playing up his whole ‘flippant and unaffected’ façade, perhaps a little too much even, but it’s hard not to build walls when his heart already feels so fragile.
Looking down at his drink, Magnus misses whatever Alec’s face may have given away about his own thoughts before he says, simply: “Name it.”
Magnus was more or less expecting that – Alec is nothing if not selfless to the point of self-destruction in his protection of his family – and so has an answer ready: “You.” And dramatic pause. “In fact, I’ll do you pro bono.”
Alec takes a second to consider; sighs deeply before completely blind-siding Magnus with his next words: “Me, how?”
The question is fair enough, Magnus supposes, but he really was expecting a blank refusal. This will take a little more consideration. On one hand: Magnus was mostly joking and maybe poking at Alec a little for his whole self-sacrificial, can’t-have-good-things attitude. He doesn’t want Alec to feel like he has to somehow give himself to Magnus to help his sister. On the other hand: Alec is working with him. If this is Alec taking what he wants now that he feels he has a good enough excuse… who is Magnus to deny him? Never mind that it’s what Magnus wants too. And Magnus won’t cash in on this deal until after the trial; he can offer them both an out if Alec seems unwilling then. And Magnus does like provoking people, especially someone as easily flustered as the handsome Shadowhunter in front of him.
“You, in my bed, for one night.”

Smh Alec you can't do that to me and say you're gonna be only Slavic man by Price's side when I exist too 😔 I'm willing to compromise and let you have him most of the time since Simon is my main husband though.
Also since I adore jealousy and possessiveness and whatnot in writing (and I'm in mood for angst) let me expand on what you wrote if I may.
Price and Nik used to date and while it was never too serious for Price, Nik still has feelings for him. And John doesn't really are it because to him Nik is just a good friend, his oldest friend and someone he (platonically) loves and trusts. But you know.
It almost becomes competition of sorts between you and Nik. Sure John loves you far more than he ever loved Nik but Nik knows him better and he isn't afraid to show it.
He knows about this one band John loves that you never even heard of and he buys John their record. He knows about that one niche type of tea John drinks, but only when he has a cold. He knows exactly how to fuck John so well that he blacks out for a few moments. And what hurts the most, he was John's first and he knows John in a way you feel like you will never be able to.
John is devoted to you but first love leaves a mark and by the time you met John, he was already older and mature and he knew exactly who he was as a person. Nik got to experience John in his truest and rawest, John before bitterness of war and while it shouldn't matter and it shouldn't hurt, it does.
And you know John would never cheat on you but sometimes a thought can't help but to creep in...does he miss Nikolai? Does he want him back? ...does he see Nikolai in me?
(Naturally the answer is no, he loves you because you're love of his life and he doesn't want anyone else but you don't know that since you just can't bring yourself to bring up the topic)
-🔮
🔮 anon I’m losing my fucking mind here
Thinking about you being the troublesome soldier that Price has taken under his wing.
However you’re doing everything to resit the help he’s trying to give, telling him that you’re not a charity case when he takes you in his squad, telling him that you’re not a charity case when he wants to patch you up after you got into a fight, telling him you’re not a charity case when he decides to keep you on his squad even when you mess up during a mission.
It’s inevitable to develop feelings, no matter how much you try to prevent yourself from doing it.
However you’re more than sure that he doesn’t feel the same. Who would want a kid who’s been kicked out of every squad he’s been in? Besides Price’s got a man by his side that remembers the tea he likes to drink when he’s sick, the band he likes to listen to and buys their records for him and even knows how to fuck him so good he momentarily forgets about everything that’s plaguing him.
But what you don’t see is that Price reciprocates your feelings. The tea Nik buys for him, Price makes for you when you can’t sleep at night or when you’re down with the flu. The cd Nik buys for him, Price mentions when it’s just the two of you hoping you’ll want to listen to them with him and all of a sudden Price finds himself visiting Nik less and less because all he can think about is you fucking him into the mattress.
Tension are high when you walk into the mess hall and see Nik and Price talking to each other. Price’s eyes immediately fall on you, a small smile tugging at his lips but all you can see is the way Nik’s got an arm around him, the way he’s saying something to Price that has him laughing and before you know it jealously’s brewing in the pit of your stomach
As you walk past them, Price feels the smile drop from his face, quickly noticing the nasty scratch on your face and without even thinking he pulls you towards his table.
“What happened?” He says with a hand on your cheek and you have to awkwardly balance your tray of food so you don’t drop it.
“Nothing” you grunt out, avoiding his gaze but feeling heat creep up your face, all while Nik watches with interest.
“Doesn’t look like nothing” Price snaps back, thumb pressing down onto your cheek and watching the way you wince.
“Why do you care?” You snap at the older man, wincing yourself as you hear the words leave your mouth.
However the older man easily avoids the daggers in the shape of words, already used to them.
“Was is it sergeant phillips again?” Price says “why didn’t you come to me instead”
“You were busy” you say, finally glancing at the Russian next to him.
“Nikolai” the man says, hand stretching out towards you with a smile on his face.
You grunt out something along the lines of your name before you pull your face away from the older man’s hand, muttering some excuse that you have something to do, not wanting to sit here and hear Price gush about the man he’s in love with, while the man in question is here.
“Make sure to get that patched up you hear me?” Price shouts out behind you, “or I’ll see you in my office” his words catching the attention of the other soldiers in the mess hall.
“You’re making it too obvious you know?” Nikolai says while trying to suppress his chuckle
“Shut up Nik” “ Price snaps back feeling heat creep up his face while watching you walk away.
Spitball w/ me?

Some thoughts!
In our modern AU, Rose and Alec won’t be related to the Campbells–Alec is such a close friend of the Campbell family (particularly Uncle Mac and Aunt Jane) that the title of “uncle” is honorary. (Gonna have to give them a different last name then…hmmmm…)
The solution to the cousins problem that I thought up was that it’s actually George (Rose’s father) who isn’t related to the Campbells. Instead, George is Alec’s childhood/adolescent best friend who he had a falling out with when they both fell in love with the same woman (Rose Sr., our Rose’s mother.) Alec and George lose contact after Rose Sr. and George get together, at first because it’s too painful for Alec to see the woman he loves with someone else, but as the years go by, the rift becomes harder and harder to heal and it’s only when George calls on Alec when he’s dying with the request to take care of his beloved daughter that the two make up.
That said, I imagine that Alec would still feel some guilt over the lateness of his forgiveness, and this combined with his love for both of Rose’s parents convinces Alec to take Rose in in spite of her not being related to him. He adopts her, but insists she call him Uncle instead of dad out of respect to George and the position that he still maintains in Rose’s heart even after his death. So, Rose becomes a cousin by adoption. (Incidentally, I think this could also be a solution in a straight adaptation if they were gun shy about first cousin marriage.)
Unsure about Rose—business or social work?
For Rose, I think that there are multiple directions you could go. First of all, Non-Profit Management is a thing you can major in! That definitely seems like it would be perfect for Rose. Human Development & Family Science also seems like it could be a decent fit. 
However, I think there are also other directions you could take her in where her desires to do good for people around her and use her financial resources would also be an asset. For example, perhaps she studies Environmental Science to help save the planet for future generations. She could even go into some branch of medicine like she talks about being interested in doing in the book. I could see Rose doing something specialized that involves a lot of highly individualized care and compassion like becoming a caretaker in a nursing home or a physical therapist. 
Archie graduated a year early and went straight into the workforce (doing what though, I’m not sure)
Archie is 100% an accountant. Look into your heart, you’ll find this to be true. 
Steve would also be starting this year, but honestly I don’t know what to do with him. However much he may desire to emulate Charlie, Aunt Jane would be sure to force him to pick a major…perhaps communication?
Steve’s nickname is Dandy, and one of his defining traits is his love of clothes and dressing well. Now, during the time that Rose in Bloom takes place, it would have been considered beneath him to become a tailor, and fashion design in America was still in its infancy. Now, neither of those things is true. Thus, Steve can be a Fashion & Apparel Design major. 
I feel like Aunt Jane might grumble a bit about his choice, but she would allow it if he had a more "practical" double major or minor like business. (Secretly, she is very proud of her creative son, even if she doesn't understand his designs, she just worries about him becoming a starving artist and doesn't want to see him have to struggle or be disappointed.)
Of course, the business minor is the trial of Steve's soul. However! I think it might be fun if Kitty initially thinks she hates math but discovers in college that what she actually hated was the pointless busywork in her math classes up to that point, and once you attach it to real and tangible things like buying fabric and setting prices that will sell without bankrupting you, she starts to enjoy it.
This leads to her eventually becoming the marketing and finance half of Steve's fashion business. (I just think it would be a fun update to the Steve and Kitty arc of wanting to become better people for the sake of each other from the book if the modern version included their professional interests as well as their character and such.)
Okay, I know I said I’m not planning on doing this modern Eight Cousins/Rose in Bloom AU, and I’m still not, but I have had a bunch of ideas floating around in my brain. Maybe I’ll write a few snippets or something? Anyway, just to get them out of my brain:
In our modern AU, Rose and Alec won't be related to the Campbells--Alec is such a close friend of the Campbell family (particularly Uncle Mac and Aunt Jane) that the title of "uncle" is honorary. (Gonna have to give them a different last name then...hmmmm...)
They all live on the same street/in the same neighborhood to allow for lots of childhood hijinks.
In replacement of their “circus,” the boys drive around a 20-year-old 15-passenger van that used to belong to their church. It is old, but it’s well kept-up—the Campbells, however affluent they may be, don’t believe in letting things go to waste. Also, the thought of Archie driving six boys around in a dilapidated van like a tired soccer mom amuses me.
Perhaps Phebe is being fostered by the family next door? (She ends up adopted by Uncle Alec eventually, of course.)
The Rose in Bloom era will begin as Rose is starting college
Rose just came back from a gap-year program—she could’ve started the same year as Mac, but Uncle Alec wanted to keep her another year. (Phebe went with her, probably?)
The immediate gut instinct is to make Charlie the popular jock, but it’s actually more textually supported to make him the popular, slightly-unhinged theatre kid who always gets all the main roles. His major is, of course, undecided. (Maybe he’s also a year behind?)
Mac is biology pre-med, but he probably just switched from philosophy or physics or something. (Probably tacks on an English or Writing minor somewhere along the way.)
Unsure about Rose—business or social work?
Archie graduated a year early and went straight into the workforce (doing what though, I’m not sure)
Phebe is studying music, but refuses to let Uncle Alec pay for any of it, and is trying to earn her way through by working multiple jobs at the same time.
Steve would also be starting this year, but honestly I don't know what to do with him. However much he may desire to emulate Charlie, Aunt Jane would be sure to force him to pick a major...perhaps communication?
Since they live so close to the university, they all live at home (Phebe couldn't talk Uncle Alec out of that one), with the exception of Charlie--he managed to convince Aunt Clara to let him live on-campus. As I'm sure you can imagine, this only serves to worsen all the trouble he gets up to.
Speaking of the trouble Charlie gets up to, instead of the Major Incident involving him coming home drunk after New Year's, perhaps it involves him getting caught with alcohol on their (dry) campus.
I honestly don't know if I'm going to have him die in this one. I probably should, because it kind of interrupts the integrity of the story if he doesn't die...but part of me wants him to see Rose and Mac together so he can see what a respectful man looks like, lol. But he will probably still end up dying in a car crash, unfortunately.
Actually, perhaps Rose’s three month “experiment” is that she wants to try living on-campus for a bit, which Uncle Alec is hesitant about, and then she decides to move back home the semester after Charlie’s whole incident. I’m mostly doing this because I want Rose and Kitty Van to be roommates, because that would be outrageously funny
Mac carries a flip-phone, which drives Steve insane, and has threatened to go Luddite on more than one occasion--but never actually would, as he's way too into the modern conveniences of downloadable music for that. Carries a little ipod nano around. He does have a laptop for school, though. Knows a lot about recent technological advances and will regale anyone with his knowledge at the slightest provocation, but will also lecture about how detrimental social media is in the same breath. He doesn't even have a Facebook. ("Even Aunt Plen has a Facebook," Steve moans. "Right, didn't you say that Facebook was for, and I quote, 'old people'?" "Well yeah, but at least it would prove you EXIST." "Have you ever heard of this guy named Descartes?")
I also feel like Mac's the type to own a record player and collect vintage vinyls (although he isn't aware that this is currently a popular thing to do).
All of the boys (with the exception of Charlie, because Aunt Clara let him get out of it) have campus jobs. Mac, of course, works in the library, but I'm not sure about Steve.
I’m not really sure what to do about translating the issue with Charlie taking Rose to parties, as the college parties of today certainly do NOT translate to the sorts of social gatherings in the time period of the original book. The time where she asks Mac to go to a party with her could be an actual campus formal event of some kind, but beyond that, I’m not sure. Perhaps it’s a group of friends that Rose feels uncomfortable being around, but doesn’t want to cut off entirely?
The same goes for Archie and Phebe, as class dynamics in marriages are not as a big of a deal as they were back then, or at least, it won’t translate to the same earth-shattering event that it is in the original book. Unsure what direction to take them, honestly, but their love story is so wonderful, I’d want to do it as much justice as I can. (In theory. As I said, I’m not actively planning on writing this.)

If I Killed Someone For You | Sandman imagine
Summary: An angel comes to set the Dream Lord free from his imprisonment, committing the sin of killing, she loses her wings for the one she loves, though her loved one does not know her.
Pairing: Morpheus x Angel! Reader
Requested: Yes
Warnings: Angst, blood & violence
Tumblr media
As angel you were taught to protect all living beings, mostly humans, as they were mostly fragile beings at the mercy of immortals. Angels existed as a source of wisdom, a guidance for humans to be lead into the right path.
You were an angel keeping guard on the Burgess family, but everything seemed to go downhill as Roderick was blindsided by his grief and seek of power.
Many times you tried to set him right, to show him different ways of coping with his loss but he refused your help, he wanted his son back and as a result he had neglected Alex.
Then as the Lord of Dreams was imprisoned you grew more and more frustrated, rules of heaven demanded you to not interfere on their human affairs. Yes, you were supposed to guide them, but you too had the obligation of letting things follow their own course, you could not take the decisions for them.
Yet again, they kept committing atrocities, the next being worse than the last, they were causing Morpheus a great sorrow and they were endangering the world’s equilibrium in keeping him prisoner.
Morpheus’ soul was good, kind, he was made to contain the cosmos, to inspire, to feel the collective and see for their best interest.
It was beyond you how such selfless being, that was literally created to serve humanity was so awfully treated by them. Like a villain to a mistold story.
You saw how he was ripped from his very own identity, from those who he loved, and somewhere along the line you fell for the King of Dreams, even at the distance.
After fifty years you had had enough, you didn’t care if it was against the rules, you couldn’t simply sit an watch this injustice happening any longer.
You would no longer be an accomplice to all this.
So, you went down to the human world and as you stepped into the Burgess mansion an intoxicating anger filled you.
Next thing you knew, you were standing in front of Morpheus prison, the bubble was broken and the Dream Lord looked at you in a mixture of confusion and slight horror.
Your hands were shaking, you looked at your palms covered in blood, looking around even your wings were tinted red, you were mortified trying to understand what had happened here, a disturbing trail of dead bodies and pools of blood right behind you.
What had you done?
This wasn’t you, this wasn’t your nature.
Then a sharp, blinding pain went through your back, more specifically your wings, they were contracting themselves in the most painful way possible.
Unable to contain yourself, blinded by pain you started screaming, the tears felt down your cheeks, as you understood you were being punished for your actions.
Because you hadn’t only fault your oath to protect and serve the Burgess, but you had exterminated them, going against humanity and natural order of things.
For that, you were paying the ultimate sacrifice.
“Stop! You’re hurting her! Stop!” You could hear Morpheus screaming at the top of his lungs, looking right up through the ceiling, advocating for you to the celestial realm.
But it was no use, as finally your wings were ripped from you, and you fell to the floor, feeling weak. The Endless ran to you, picking you up, you were practically limb under him, completely dead weight.
Even then, goosebumps rose along your skin, his touch being softer and kinder than you thought it would be like.
The now free king, analyzing your features, the features of the one who had saved him and payed the price, your eyes were barely open and you were smiling at him weakly.
For the first time since Jessamy’s death, he cried, it was madness seeing as you were a stranger, but this same stranger had selflessly set him free. He wanted to apologize to you, to thank you, he had so many things to say and many more questions to ask you.
“Why would do it? Why did you save me?”
“Love makes all living beings capable of things we never thought before…” you whispered softly, giving into the tiredness.
You loved him?
“I don’t even know your name” you giggled softly
“Y/N”
That was the last thing you said before giving in to the darkness.
The Lord of Dreams felt a presence, when looking up he found his sister Death standing right in front of him, a single tear fell down his cheek as he saw his sister’s sorry expression.
“Death, please don’t take her” he pleaded
“She broke the code, Dream”
“She meant well, angels are not supposed die. Let her have vindication, she can stay in the Dreaming with me”
Death stared at her younger brother deeply, soaking in his words, she had known you for eons, and she believed this to be a true tragedy as well. She didn’t think you deserved such punishment just for doing what in the end was right for humanity.
She sighed, knowing that she couldn’t give you your wings back, nobody could except for the celestial realm, but they rarely ever backed out from decisions like this.
But what she could do now, was giving you second chance, a new life beside the one you loved.
“Take care of her for me, alright Dream?” Morpheus’ eyes shined with hope as he nodded softly
When Death was gone, your eyes opened marking the very beginning of your new life.
