ot6 freaks when they have to come to terms with the fact that riize is and will always be 7… that the members themselves pushed to have seunghan back… they knew the risks that came with that but still wanted to continue as a group with seunghan because thats their friend, their family.
if you love riize, you love all 7 of them. you cant claim to love riize if you dont love the entire group, because riize themselves love the entire group. riize wanted to be 7, so why cant you support that? because they dont fit your little delusional parasocial fantasy? disrespecting a riize member is disrespecting all of riize, under the guise of “protecting” them and “worried about the hate they’ll get” when you’re the exact people spreading the hate ur so worried about. whats the end goal here? how was chanting that riize is 7 harmful and disrespectful to the group but sending funeral wreaths and wishing death on seunghan isnt disrespectful? the boys made their decision… so you support or you unstan. it got to a point where the first mention of seunghan from one of the members was a note to the people sending hate to seunghan to stop and to support riize because thats what riize wants… instead of a first post being praise and celebrating his return.
theres also many groups that have had members join the group post debut and those groups are doing just fine ? sure they had some sort of hate when they came in but in the end, the members are happy and they have a good support system from fans. thats what riize needs right now, thats what seunghan needs right now, because he’s not even a new member, he’s just resuming his activities with his group that he already debuted with !!
even if you became a briize during the time he was on hiatus, i hope you grow to love him the way other briize and riize members love him as well. there’s no reason to send him hate if you truly love riize the way you claim.

NNN with the ACOTAR men
🥀A/n: surprise...! sorry for not writing for a MONTH ive been doing this. whoops.
🥀Cw: smut, nsfw, vague description of genitals, switch!reader. teasing
🥀Character(s): Eris Vanserra, Lucien Vanserra, Cassian, Rhysand, Azriel x reader (seperate)
🥀divider: @chachachannah <3
🥀minors dni
Tumblr media
Eris Vanserra:
Eris is,,,, lukewarm to the idea to say the least. why on earth would he want to not fuck you for a whole month?
probably takes a lot of pleading to get him to agree ngl, but once he does agree..... HE IS MAKING IT
definitely lasts the whole month, no questions asked
there is no way his resolve is breaking im sorry i just dont see it. no matter how hard you tease him, Eris' only response is a noncommittal "hmm," and a devilish smirk.
he's definitely giving you a taste of your own medicine too- be prepared for teasing from HIM
he'd sneak up behind you and grab your waist, whispering filthy words in your ear about what exactly he's planning to do the minute the month is over... only to pull away and "tut" smugly
he's going to be soo mean if you give up, especially if you challenged him. the teasing is fifteen times worse, and on top of that he's STILL abstaining because even if you're not making it... hes seeing this through!
hes a lovable asshole about it.
"aw, can't even go a whole month without me?"
i feel like towards the end of the month, he'd get irritable and pent up. he has a high-stress life after all, and not getting any release on his frustration can take its toll. Eris would never take it out on you, but expect him to be a little more curt and snippy than usual
once the month is done though? be PREPARED. Eris is a lot more rough and intense when he's pent up, and would be adamant about making up on lost time. you're probably not leaving your shared bedroom for AT LEAST three days. even when you both aren't fucking, he's pressing kisses up and down your body and memorizing everything he didn't get to see throughout the month
i also see him being a lot more passionate at the end of the month. he won't admit it, but he missed getting to fuck you
overall, he'd last, but he would not like it and would make it up to you
"missed me, huh?" Eris coos, sinking into your aching hole. his skin is warm, almosst burning against your own as his tip just kisses that sensitive spot inside you, providing a tantalizing sensation of pleasure.
"f'course i did," you murmur, tightening your legs around his waist. your sat in his lap, completely bare, and his hands travel to cup at your chest.
"oh really?" Eris' gaze is calculating as he presses a nipple between two lithe fingers, rolling the sensitive bud and watching you squirm. "then why did you make me wait so long, darling?"
"mnh- 'was just a game..." you whine, nuzzling into the crook of his neck as Eris slowly begins to thrust in and out. you clench around him tightly with every roll of his hips, and his free hand begins to rub your clit/cock.
"just a game? well, why don't we play a game, hm? lets see how many times i can make you cum," Eris purrs, and you nod fervently. his eyed narrow, and he paused in his ministrations.
"use your words."
you arch your back, pleading for his touch again. "please make me cum, Er..." Eris chuckles at your obedience, before returning to stroking you, increasing his pace as he did so. "whatever my darling mate desires~"
Lucien Vanserra:
Lucien would not like the idea- he'd miss you too much, and i also feel like he has a pretty high libido in and of itself
he'd do it to make you happy, but i really don't see him lasting. Lucien would make it halfway through the month MAX. you tease him once and he folds- he's very whipped for u !!!
probably lasts at least 2 weeks, but after that he really doesn't pay much mind to it
sooooo fun to tease, in my mind he's the type to be unabashedly in LOVE with his partner and isn't afraid of acting flustered when you catch him off guard. he loves seeing you in lingerie and it's probably one of the easiest things you can do to get him to give in
i also can see him teasing you too- he's very flirtatious in nature, and if he wants you, he's pulling all the stops to see if he can make you break- ESPECIALLY if he gives up and you continue trying and to last the whole month
if you don't tease him throughout the month or give him reason to give up, i think that Lucien may have a sliiightly higher chance of making it through the month- but its still not guaranteed. like i said, he has a high libido and even if he doesnt fuck you he'll probably still end up masturbating
when it comes to the end of the month be PREPARED- he is absolutely waking you up at 12:01 because he "wants you so bad". its hard to say no to him when he's being all sweet and compliant, but know that it won't last bc he will very soon turn into a MENACE. if you can still walk, then he's not done
"you're simply divine," Lucien murmurs, almost worshipful as his lips trail up your navel. with each rise and fall of your chest, his sinful mouth travels higher and higher, kissing and sucking over marks he had left from previous rounds in a wanton mix of lust and love. his eyes never leave yours, his gaze reverent and his mechanical eye whirring as he takes you in, observing you as though you might disappear.
"perfect," he whispers breathlessly, crawling above your nude form and supporting himself with a strong arm on either side of your head. your lips meet in a sickeningly sweet kiss, and he rolls his hips tantalizingly against yours.
"mngh- jus' came!" you whine, and Lucien chuckles breathlessly against your lips.
"you can give me one more, hm?"
Rhysand:
i think Rhysand is a bit of a wild card, i think he would be into the idea at first, as he loves a good competition, but after realizing what it fully entails, he'd be pouty about not getting to sleep with you for a whole month. like, do you even love him anymore???
he'd probably make it to at least 3 weeks -> the end of the month
in all seriousness though, i think whether or not he makes it depends on how much you want to make it- if you don't tease him or don't try too hard, then i can see him making it with ease, but if you turn him on? ohhh he's not letting you go without making you both lose.
i see Rhys as kind of a hornball, genuinely it doesn't take much to turn him on, but it's whether or not you do it intentionally that really gets him going. like seeing down the front of your chest on accident? sure, he's horny, but he'll get over it. you intentionally bend down in front of him in a loose shirt, or flash him as a joke? ohhh he needs you now.
PETTIEST TEASE !!!!! you think you can get away with teasing him with no repercussions? think again, because he'll make you come running to HIMMM- he's sending you nudes through the mating bond randomly throughout the day, he's flashing you, he'll wear lingerie under his suit and tell you about it inconspicuously, stuff like that
Rhys is also quite touchy, i genuinely see him being like. clingy. especially when he misses you. what he can't have in sexual intimacy throughout the month, he makes up for in physical intimacy as he is practically almost ALWAYS at your side, and demands a lot more of your attention than usual. not in a bad way, he just loves when you focus on him
when the month is over, he's actually turning into a FREAK. instead of waking you up, he invades your dream, filling it with his own dirty desires so that you wake up aaallll hot n bothered. then and only then does he give in to his own lust and fuck you senseless
you awake with a gasp, feeling a sticky heat between your legs. your cheeks flush as memories of your more than pleasant dream fill your mind, clueing you in to the reason behind your own arousal.
"i see someone had a good dream," a sensual voice purrs in your ear, and you whip around to face the violet-eyed speaker.
"this is your fault, Rhys. i know your behind that.. dream." you grumble, and he lets out a velvety laugh.
"oh, but you'll never prove it~" he teases, but your having none of it. you waste no time in pushing him down against the bed, moving to straddle him and grinding down hard.
"s-someones being forward tonight," Rhysand hisses, hips jolting upwards to meet your impatient humping.
"hah- f'course i am, its been a, a month! i swear, if you don't shut up and fuck me Rhysand i will-" your cut off with a yelp as strong arms find purchase on your waist, flipping you over so that your pinned down beneath your lover.
"be careful what you wish for, darling."
Cassian:
loves the idea of NNN in theory... hates it in execution. Cassian is probably more overconfident in his abilities to abstain from sex than he is actually capable of in reality, so he goes into NNN ready to face it head on- only to CRUMBLE by week two because he just needs to cum.
lasts 2.5 weeks TOPS.
Cassian is always packing some sort of heat, his dick is big big, and he swears he's never noticed it until now. literally everything you do gives him a ridiculous hard on- it's almost embarrassing. its a phenomenon, the more he can't have you, the more he wants you!
Cassian could probably withstand torture, but can't withstand your teasing. just a few lustful innuendos and giving him a look and he's down on his knees practically begging you to let him fuck you, just the tip, he promises he won't even cum.... (lies)
can not take teasing, but he's pretty good at teasing you- although not subtly. not subtly at all. comes up behind you and grabs your hips with two big hands, pressing his boner against your ass like,,,, hey. whispers absolute filth into your ear until he's borderline humping you, and is so caught up in the moment that he can't focus on anything (or anyone) other than you if you don't give in then your better than me fr
at the end of the month Cassian is practically in heat, he's nearly drooling with need as he shakes you awake, ready to beg politely ask you to just fuck him already...
rough hands gently cup your face, and scratchy stubble tickles your cheeks as your lover plants kisses all across your face.
"babe," Cassian murmurs, "its december." you hum, shifting slowly into the realm of consciousness and turning to look at him.
"and?" you tease, feigning innocence as Cassian pouts. "oh, fuck you," he grumbles, nuzzling his head into your neck, and you giggle.
"aw, the big strong illyrian warrior can't last a month without me?"
"f'course i can't. it's you, afterall." you feel Cassian's grin against your neck, and hum thoughtfully. one of your hands trails to his wings, rubbing gently over the sensitive membrane. Cassian lets out a strangled moan, rolling his hips desperately as he begins to grind on your thigh.
"fffuck, hun, jus' like that," he slurs, shuddering as you continue stroking is wings. "you're so perfect f'me," he mumbles, increasing his pace.
"cum for me, Cassian," you mumble, pressing a kiss to his temple and feeling his breath shudder against your neck. suddenly, he pauses his motions, gently pulling your hand from his twitching wings.
"hngh- hah, not yet- wanna be inside you first."
Azriel:
i don't think Azriel would care too heavily about NNN, if you were into it he'd do it but he doesn't feel too strongly about it- however, he is quite competitive, and will take it seriously if you challenge him
Azriel is making it through the month no questions asked. i simply can not see him giving in- he loves you dearly, but nothing will stop him from winning
honestly, your probably more at risk of giving in then him- he's teasing you worse than anything you could ever do to him, only to pull away last minute and watch you squirm with arousal. you're also NOT getting away with teasing Azriel because he WILL get you back ten times worse, that is a promise
you "accidentally" brush over his crotch? what a shame, he's "accidentally" grinding on you. you moan in his ear? he's dirty talking to you in front of your entire friend group. you wear something provocative? he will take his shirt off in front of you. he WILL get you back, and it will be worse than anything u give to him
at this point he's just downright Evil with his teasing- like he's coming into YOUR room, kissing you senseless until your all hot n bothered, and then just leaving!!! Evil!!!!!
definitelt tries to piss you off and get you needy just because he thinks it's attractive- the hornier you are the happier he is !
when the month is over, he's merciless. probably edges you and then overstimulates you for LITERAL hours, still teasing you and trying to piss you off solely because he can. however, he does reach his breaking point eventually, and when he does i DOUBT you will be walking for 2-5 business days because he will be ROUGH
the sound of skin slapping against skin fills the room as the scent of sex invaded your senses. your own pleasured moans drown out the sound of Azriel's cock squelching in and out of your aching hole with each thrust, his breath hot and heavy on your neck. large, scarred hands find purchase on your hips, and your thighs tremble as he forces you deeper into a mating press. he holds your gaze as one hand begins to toy with your clit/cock, his calculated motions bringing you to the edge yet again.
"uh-huh, y'like that?" Azriel smirks, watching as you writhe and moan. "y'wanna cum this time baby?"
"p-please! please Az, 'm so close," your voice is cracked and embarrassingly whiny, your hips rolling against his with every thrust.
"patience, baby," he murmurs, pressing feather light kisses to the soft skin of your neck.
"you'll get your turn. i've waited a whole month, you'll let me have my fun, hm?"

collegestudent!sunghoon x fem!reader, collegestudent!jay x fem!reader (feat. wonyoung from ive)
“i feel falling in love with all my heart”
synopsis: you and sunghoon have become distant ever since he started going out with wonyoung, allowing you to be closer with jay.
warning/content: written in third pov. angst. fluff. slight angst ending(?) not proofread. cursing. hoon’s not really in here a lot (sorry). jay ending <3 (this one kinda hurt)
comments, likes, and reposts are appreciated :)
word count: 6.7k
a/n: part one — ₊˚ʚ let you break my heart again ɞ˚₊
fictional characters — dae (jungwon’s boyfriend), min-su (heeseung’s girlfriend), and ji-woo (jake’s girlfriend). the long awaited part two!!
༘˚⋆𐙚。masterlist⋆.✧˚
current song playing: falling in love by cigarettes after sex
↻ ◁ II ▷ ↺
1:11 ───────|──────────── -2:53
months had passed since sunghoon and wonyoung were officially dating.
and from then on, him and y/n haven’t been the same. she’s kept a clear distance in everything, ensuring that girl code was still relevant for his girlfriend.
wonyoung was thankful for it. she didn’t need to worry about the usual girl friend waiting for the perfect moment to seize the guy.
in fact, y/n steered clear of the couple so much that sunghoon and her didn’t even talk on the daily basis anymore.
no more constant texts. no more late night calls. no more stupid inside jokes.
they’d all now been reserved for wonyoung..
and jay.
ever since the girl accidentally bursted into tears in front of him, they’ve gotten slightly closer.
and being the gentleman his parents raised him to be, jay always ensured she was okay before her class started by walking her there every day — even if his classes were across campus.
he was a change from sunghoon.
usually, hoon would tease and make fun of y/n, but with jay, he was sweet and gentle — careful, almost, with how he treated her.
it was definitely something she’d have to adjust to but she didn’t mind. the 5’11 boy was comforting to her in every way.
but even then, she did kind of miss sunghoon. he just always got her, and she always got him. it seemed like he didn’t mind the change either though, as long as he was with wonyoung, he was okay.
because he wasn’t y/n’s. he was never to begin with.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
“hey,” ji-woo snapped her fingers at y/n, who instantly shot her head up.
“hm?”
“girl are you okay? you keep spacing out..,”
y/n groaned out a sigh before planting her head on min-su’s shoulder. “i’m fine.., i’m just really tired from the last minute study session i had with jay yesterday.”
“you guys studied again?” she heard min-su muffle on the side.
“yeah, he asked so i just went along with it.”
the atmosphere became quiet after her words processed to everyone. “what..?” she asked with shifting eyes.
“doesn’t jay usually hate study sessions?” dae mumbled.
“yeah but he really needed help on his assignment, and i just happened to be there.”
the boy shifted his gaze to ji-woo once more, allowing y/n to catch on and glance at min-su with a — ‘the hell are they doing?’ — kind of look, just for her friend to snort out a laugh.
“don’t look at me, i’ve been with hee since last night.” min-su defended.
y/n nodded before looking at the other two. “why do you guys keep looking at each other like that?”
“um well.., don’t you think it’s a little suspicious that jay wanted to do a study session when he hates them?” ji-woo murmured.
“no.. we’re friends with him, he’d ask any one of us for help.”
dae grumbled a sigh of slight irritation before replying, “yeah but he asked you, y/n, when it’s been almost two years since you took that class.”
“mhm.. and didn’t you say you were kind of getting over sunghoon?” jake’s girl interrogated once more.
y/n sighed, shaking her head at her friends. min-su, who quickly caught on, spoke — “alright alright that’s enough, let her get some rest before her class starts.”
the group went on to talk about something else as y/n stayed stuck on ji-woo’s words. it was true that she was getting slightly over her crush, but that was only because she basically never saw him as much as she used to.
he was still in the friend group, but he just never felt present in her eyes anymore. the only thing they’d exchange would be a soft laugh when somebody joked, but other than that, the relationship was gone.
maybe she just missed how it was, or maybe she just missed him and his homely presence.
“y/n?? did you even hear us?” dae snapped with furrowed brows.
she lost her train of thought as she looked over to jungwon’s boyfriend, who continued to wear a worried look. “sorry.. i got distracted, what?” she murmured.
“we’re gonna go out with our men this weekend, just to a farmers market and walk around. wanna come with us? we miss you..,” ji-woo chimed in with hopeful eyes.
“i’m right here…,” the girl attempted to joke, causing light giggles to go around in the circle.
“girl we haven’t properly seen you in weeks. you’re either studying at home or you’re with jay somewhere.” min-su added in.
y/n’s stomach randomly dropped at the statement of being with jay elsewhere. her heartbeats were getting slightly heavier and her fingers were fidgeting with each other. she knew this feeling. she knew it a little too well.
“i’m not always with jay..,” she tried to deflect.
dae giggled at her state. “i swear whenever i see you on campus, jay’s beside you.”
“he’s just a comforting friend..,”
“yeah so bring him when we go out this weekend!” jake’s girlfriend beamed with a plastered grin.
it was obvious that the group was trying to get her mind off of hoon now that he was with wonyoung, but y/n had to admit, it was strange. she used to always have her ears be filled with mumbling words from them of how her and her favorite boy would get together soon.
but it was gone. that moment was gone now, and she didn’t know whether to be glad or ashamed that she was moving on a little too quick.
so instead, the girl just whipped her head to her friend. “what, so him and i could 7th wheel you three?” she shot, head already shaking in disagreement.
“well if you bring him then it won’t be 7th wheeling!” dae attempted to reason.
“is this really your guys’ way of convincing me to go when i won’t have fun?”
“what won’t be fun?” niki’s voice suddenly boomed from min-su’s behind.
y/n groaned as she found a few members taking the empty seats around the table, jay voluntarily sitting next to her. “they’re trying to make me 7th wheel on saturday, i should say no right?”
the maknae snorted out a laugh before placing his elbow onto her shoulder. “they’re really gonna torture you like that?” he mumbled in a snicker.
“right! that’s what i’m saying!”
jay chuckled, dusting niki’s arm off of his friend’s shoulder as he uttered, “why would they do that?”
“we’re trying to make her go out more!” ji-woo panned with an eye roll, causing jake to holler out laughs as he responded, “love, is it really the best way to have her go out with couples after spending weeks to get comfortable around sunghoon and wonyoung?”
“he’s got a point, babe.” jungwon commented, looking directly in dae’s eyes with sparkles. “she’ll still have fun though!” the boy tried to defend, avoiding his favorite boy’s features.
“heeseung’s not even here to make it worst but all this couple stuff with just those two is making me sick. how will i survive it being three couples?” y/n gagged, body shaking in horror.
the handsome male beside her chuckled as he gave a soft ruffle to her hair. “good luck with that, text me if you get bored.” jay suggested.
there it was again. the nervous bubbles fuming in her stomach, the eye pupils dilating after meeting eye contact. it was happening.
“don’t be surprised if your phone gets filled with my text messages.” y/n joked back, hoping that he didn’t see through her.
the male probably would’ve if sunghoon hadn’t just entered in with wonyoung linked beside one of his arms.
“who’s getting spammed?” hoon tried to beam in while taking a seat across from his old friend.
he instantly locked eyes with her but she tore her gaze away, looking at ji-woo instead. “they’re trying to make me go somewhere with them,” y/n said, trying to ignore the obvious awkward tension.
ji-woo wore a half smile as she squeezed her boyfriend’s hands out of instinct. “she should go right?” she asked to sunghoon.
the male only nodded, and y/n wasn’t sure if anyone else caught on but she found him holding back a joke that he’d usually make if they were still close.
ouch.
her head lowered once she felt her heart grip on a little tighter in her chest, each vein tingling in despair.
“you should go, y/n, you never want to go out anywhere,” she heard him say. those words were the first thing he’s ever said to her in months. and again, it was strange.
he’d usually say something along the lines of — “don’t go out, let’s just stay at my place and we’ll study” — but he wasn’t there for her anymore.
immediately, the poor girl was then reminded of the times when it’d just be the two hanging with each other. no one else, but them.
they were introverts, but they were extroverts when they were together. when one wasn’t feeling it, the other would be there just to be a comforting presence.
tears filled her eyes as she bit her lips from holding them in. it felt stupid to tear up about something like this, but she couldn’t help it. they didn’t talk anymore, and sunghoon seemed completely fine with it.
y/n was too, but she just needed time to adjust. after all, he did nothing wrong.
as she remained quiet, she felt jay nudge her with his elbow, causing her to look at him with confused eyes.
the male shifted his attention to her and watched how her beautifully glistened eyes emphasized her thoughts. he only raised his brows though, gesturing that she should respond back.
“i don’t know yet. i’m still debating,” she tried to laugh off.
once again, she avoided eye contact with sunghoon, turning to look at dae and min-su instead.
“hoonie’s right, you should go! it’ll be fun especially after working so hard, y/n!” wonyoung chimed in with a sweet smile.
‘hoonie..,’ y/n thought. ‘his nickname..,’
she looked up to the pretty girl and grinned back. in her peripheral vision, she could see the scattered exchanges from min-su to ji-woo, and then ji-woo to dae, and then dae to jungwon, and so forth.
did it hurt that she heard somebody else call him hoonie? sure, but she wasn’t gonna rampage about it.
he wasn’t hers to be acting like that in the first place.
“you’re right, wonyoung. i should go huh??” the girl immediately beamed back, causing wonyoung to agree in a charming manner. she was so gorgeous.
as the conversation continued out and others began talking as well, y/n constantly found herself looking at how hoon stayed attentive on his girlfriend. he was still that same caring boy, just not to her anymore.
“stop staring, they might catch on.” a small whisper lingered in her ear, evidently being jay’s who only chuckled afterward.
she sent a light smack to his arm. “shut up, i’m not staring that much.”
“you’re staring enough,” he joked back, letting his fingers softly nudge her cheeks.
the girl rolled her eyes as jay continued to brightly smile alongside her. “there’s too many couples here,” she mumbled to him, letting her attention stay on each couple coiled up against each other.
“i agree, wanna get out of here?”
she whipped her head in an instant. “yes please!” she harshly whispered back, causing a satisfied grin to be worn on him. “i just have to go to the restroom first.”
jay dramatically sighed — “it’s always the restroom first.”
“shut up!” y/n yelled back, giving a ruthless hit to the arm.
she swore though, that when she got up from her seat, she saw hoon flicker his gaze to her and jay. it was most likely what she wasn’t thinking, but she still caught onto it.
“actually, we’re gonna go too, wonyoung has class soon and i wanna make sure she gets there on time.” sunghoon suddenly spurted out, allowing the two to stand up as well.
the group nodded as the couple took their departure, while niki and sunoo left to their classes, leaving y/n and her three closest friends to run off to the restroom together.
as they left, jay couldn’t help but watch her disappear in his sight. something about her just eased him.
his gaze softened and he found himself smiling without even realizing it. was it happening to him too?
his heart was beating and his breathing was getting heavy at the mere thought of his friend, y/n.
“you really like her, don’t you?” jungwon immediately chimed in with a wiggle in his brows.
jay jokingly scoffed as he laughed. “i don’t like her,” he murmured. “she’s just a friend.”
“yeah a really GOOD friend,” jake added in as well, patting his friend’s back while chuckling.
as jay was about to give another remark, heeseung intruded in — “who are we talking about?”
“y/n and jay.”
“oh that he likes her?” he teased, catching on right away.
“i don’t like her,” the boy grumbled. “we’ve just gotten closer, that’s it.”
“jay.. just admit it,” one of the boys uttered.
“she’s a friend i’ve been comforting since she’s still trying to get over sunghoon, our other friend.”
jake guffawed out a laugh as he murmured, “dude, you’re so bad at lying. she’s starting to get over him because of you anyway.”
jay’s head shot up. “really?” his heart was rapidly racing now, was he really the reason why she was beginning to move on and no longer hurt?
his lips curled into a small grin as he dumbly smiled to himself.
“you definitely like her,” the oldest of them all teased.
jay shot a glare towards him before sighing in defeat. “i don’t like her but .. she’s nice to be around.” a pink tint began to hit his cheeks as he thought about y/n again.
the three boys snickered to themselves as they patted him on the back. “congrats bro, you’re in love,” jake mumbled.
while the four continued to converse, dae and the girls came back soon afterward.
“you still wanna leave?” jay asked, eyes coming into a sparkling haze.
y/n gulped. he was so handsome, and she could just stare at him all day. “yeah,” she cleared her throat. “let’s go, i have class soon.”
as she gathered her things, she found jungwon raising his brows towards jay, only to earn a downturned smile from him.
“let’s leave these people alone,” he grumbled before pulling her away.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
as the two walked around campus, wasting time, their hands constantly bumped against each others. the lingering jay had just to tangle his fingers with hers was crowding his thoughts. he just wanted to know what it was like, to experience it with her at least once.
“i like her..,” he quietly confirmed to himself. “i do…,”
“what was that, jay?” y/n looked up at him with a half smile.
“ah.. nothing. so you’re going with them on the weekend?”
“i kind of don’t want to.., should i just stay home?” she mumbled.
jay chuckled before wrapping his arm around her shoulder. “you should go, it’ll be fun!”
the change from jay and sunghoon was again, too easy to catch on, but y/n ignored it this time.
“wanna go with me??” she suddenly asked with pleading eyes.
the male’s heart stopped for a second. “you want me to go with you..?” he slowly repeated.
“mhm, go with me! so i won’t be alone.. please, jay!”
he softly chuckled as the two stopped in their tracks. “why don’t you ask niki?”
“jay.. come on, we’re closer, it’ll be more fun!”
his heart thumped, and he harshly gulped down every nerve in his body. “y/n..,”
“jay…,” she scowled back with a teasing smile. “come on!”
“you’re just gonna keep asking, aren’t you?”
“yeah so you should just say yes!”
the boy sighed to himself before finally giving in. “fine.. i’ll go.”
y/n jumped up and down in glee, hitting his arms as she yelled, “yay! i won’t be a 7th wheeler!”
jay watched her make little hops, grinning ear to ear as his pupils dilated from looking at her.
he was completely falling for her and he was okay with it. he knew she most likely still liked sunghoon though, but just for the time being, he was enjoying his personal moments with her.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
the weekend came and y/n found herself dolling up for the day sooner than she thought.
“just a day with jay.. usual stuff,” she attempted to convince herself.
as she finally checked her phone, she found text notifications from the boy.
mr. jjongtsby 🐈‍⬛:
I’m almost there, y/n
Are you reading this? I know you don’t have notifications on
I’m pulling up
y/n <33:
oh shit sorry! i’m coming out now :)
the girl rushed out of the door, giving quick goodbyes to her family members before meeting with jay.
“sorry,” she huffed. “i didn’t see your notifications until now.”
he chuckled while backing the car out. “no worries. i thought you almost forgot about our day for a second there.”
her body tensed up at his words. “our day..?”
“yeah, our day with the others.” jay mumbled, hollering out a laugh to cancel out the nervous bubble in his stomach. “ready to go through couple stuff?”
butterflies erupted in her stomach this time as she tried to play it off. “yeah.. let’s go!”
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
hours had passed since jay picked her up, and they had been completely surrounded by each others presence.
the couples were together of course, always walking side by side with arms linked together — leaving jay and y/n to walk along just as friends. her friends would occasionally try to add her into the conversations, but she knew she wasn’t fit for them, especially if they were couple-related things.
“oh isn’t this cute jakey??” she’d hear her friend sickly say, letting her become disgusted from behind.
“oh it is, love! you want it? i’ll get it for you,” jake would murmur back with a smiley face.
maybe she was just a hater, but she couldn’t stand it. then she’d hear her other friend, dae go — “wonie, let’s take a picture with this!”
and that’d only allow jungwon to squish his favorite boy’s cheeks while placing a soft kiss — “okay babe, get ready for the camera,” he’d cheekily respond.
and if that wasn’t enough, she’d already find min-su simply gathered in heeseung’s arms. the boy couldn’t stop clinging himself around her as he mumbled sweet nothings to her.
it was an appalling mess, and y/n was tired of it.
“you really hate seeing them be happy?” jay chimed, teeth fully on display to show his wide grin.
she softly nudged him as she shook her head. “i don’t hate it, but it’s just a little gross…,” the girl replied.
“you signed yourself up for this, you know?”
“jay..,” y/n scowled, sending him a faint glare.
he only smiled at that before backing off. “fine fine, but you know i’m right.”
she playfully rolled her eyes, pushing his shoulder back as she walked a little slower than her friends.
“alright come on grumpy pants, let’s catch up with them.” he mumbled, dragging her away with a slight grip to the wrist.
the two caught up with everyone else who stopped at a bracelet stand.
“baby, let’s get this one.” min-su uttered to her boyfriend who was already reaching for the same purple band as her. “i already knew what color,” he whispered against her, causing a flush color to form on her cheeks.
jake turned to ji-woo as well, letting his eyes sparkle to display his puppy look before mumbling, “what about this one, love? it’s our color.” his hands held a similar pattern to the other bracelet but in green, causing his girl to excitedly squeal — “it’s so us, jake!”
while the other two couples situated themselves, dae and jungwon were already exchanging each others similarly colored bracelets — which were navy blue of course.
“wonie, this color matches us right? i wanted purple but min-su and hee already got it..,” he softly pouted.
won only grinned, making dents in his cheeks for his dimples as he replied, “of course babe. anything matches you because you’re perfect.”
y/n heard her friend giggle like crazy, and all she could do was send a stank eye that wasn’t caught on by anyone else but jay, earning a quiet chuckle from him.
perhaps if the girl was in a relationship like her friends, she’d get it, but she wasn’t. she was the last single friend left.
so as she watched her friends create core memories with their partners from behind, she scanned through each colored bracelet as well — eyes searching for a color she may find fond.
however, the only color that she could see herself wearing was the black one. it was simple, but it had its unique features sticking out to her in the best way possible.
y/n picked it up, contemplating whether or not she should get it. “no one to match with.. but it’s pretty, so i guess.” she reasoned, going to the owner to pay afterward.
it was set in her mind that no one could possibly care to match with her, but jay was willing to. the girl didn’t catch onto the fact that he was secretly observing her.
he was just being discreet, watching to see which colored bracelet she’d choose so he didn’t get the wrong one.
as soon as she picked up the black one, his hands snatched the other free bracelet, causing him to catch a glimpse of the other owner who only beamed a confused look in why he had to seize it like that.
he apologetically smiled before approaching where his new found crush was at.
“cash or card?” the owner asked.
as y/n was about to speak, jay quickly intruded in. “card, i’ll pay.” he beamed with a dazzling smile towards her.
“what?? you’re gonna pay? you don’t have to-“
“too late, it’s yours now, wear it.” jay assured back, flashing another grin before handing her the bracelet.
y/n’s heart fluttered at his kind gesture. he was just being a friend but even then, it was still doing something to her.
“thanks jay.. that was really sweet.”
the male chuckled as he wrapped his own bracelet around his wrist. “don’t mention it, you deserve to be treated this way,” he mumbled with a nervous laugh.
“i do..,” she said under her breath.
it was changing, everything was changing. the clear picture was starting to change from sunghoon and she wasn’t hating it.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
about an hour had passed and the night was soon ending for the group.
“do we have to go already?” ji-woo pouted.
“yes, love, we’re exhuasted.” jake replied, chuckling as he wrapped his arms behind her.
dae sighed on the side. “well we can always stay out just for a little longer..,”
“you know you’re tired, baby, let’s get some rest hm?” won squeezed his boyfriend’s hands, resting on his shoulder as his eyes were glued shut.
heeseung and min-su didn’t bother to chime in. the two were simply already shutting down from all the walking and constant stops.
“i’m tired too!” y/n added on. “what about you jay?”
“i’m pretty beat, but i should take you home soon.”
“now?”
“mhm, let’s go.” jay quickly confirmed, quietly acknowledging her social battery running out.
the two left with little waves of goodbyes to their friends before they reached his car.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
the car ride was quiet through it all. normally, jay loved to go through a highlighted series of what happened best today, but y/n was quiet — indicating that she’d honestly rather stay silent for the time being.
the girl was an introvert, and he was understanding of that, so he only let slow music softly boom in the car as he drove.
it was a change from his old relationships but he didn’t mind it. he knew she was the kind of girl who just wanted peace and quiet at times, and this was it.
when they finally arrived to her place, jay lowered the music and was about to turn to y/n, only to find her plopping her head against his shoulder.
“y/n..?” he tried to call in a low voice. “are you asleep?”
the male waited for a response but got none back whatsoever, allowing him to conclude that she, indeed, was knocked out.
quiet snores left her mouth as she muzzled her head further onto his shoulder. she was comfortably situated, and he loved that she could always just confide into him for that kind of thing.
“cute,” he murmured to himself, beaming a soft grin that displayed his thumping heart for her.
jay parked the car, allowing her to sleep for a few minutes before she woke up out of fear and confusion.
“we’re already here?” y/n grumbled, eyes peeking around the windshield with a groggy expression.
she heard him give a quiet laugh that immediately erupted a mount of butterflies in her stomah as he replied, “yeah but i wanted you to sleep a little, you were really tired.”
“thanks,” she sighed. “today was really fun with you.”
“back at you, get home safe okay?”
“you too,” the girl bunked her wrist against his, causing her to look down at the jingle her bracelet made with his accessory.
then she found it. the matching black bracelet he bought. her heart dropped to her stomach but in a good way.
she had basically confirmed that he was thinking of her in the way she was second guessing.
“your bracelet..?” she uttered out of instinct.
jay tensed up. the instant thought of how awkward it’d be if she didn’t feel the same quickly stole his attention. he was scared and lost, which only caused him to harshly pull his wrist away from her electrifying touch.
“yeah, i like the color,” he bluntly replied with a clear throat.
she smiled, blood rushing to her cheeks as she said, “hey it’s just like-“
“don’t you have to go home?” he harshly cut her off. regret immediately took form on his face once he realized how rude he sounded.
he hated that he was sounding like this because it wasn’t him. he was gentle and reassuring, not cold hearted.
y/n didn’t know how to react though. one minute he’s sweet, and the next he’s cruelly blunt. ‘but maybe it was just from exhaustion,’ she thought to herself before nodding, trying to seem unfazed as she only reached out for the door.
jay wanted to stop and apologize, but he also felt like a creep with getting a matching bracelet without her consent. it wasn’t creepy-like but he was just overthinking it.
as the girl waved goodbye with an attempted smile to ensure everything was okay, jay only pressed his lips into a firm line out of humiliation. he’d like to leave the scene and get rid of the embarrassing moment, but he had to make sure she got in safely.
so when she did, he instantly drove away with a head shake.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
a few weeks were now hitting the mark of when they’d gone out with the couples, and y/n wasn’t sure if it was just her, but she felt a wavering distance between her and jay.
it was panicking her. she already lost sunghoon and she now might be losing jay.
to be quite honest though, her mind was already off of hoon. she didn’t notice him as much anymore, and it was clear that her mind was beginning to render him out.
it was jay that kept her up at night now, from the late night ‘what if’s’ to the stupid sleeping scenarios. it was him, and no longer sunghoon.
it was him who was always there for her, and she realized it once he kept a distance.
she hated it. normally, she’d be the one who’d avoid but she missed talking to him. she missed how he’d light up her day just by simply being near her. she missed him.
whenever the group would sit at a table, jay never chose to sit next to her anymore. he’d either force himself next to niki or he’d just sit next to one of the couples.
‘did i do something wrong?’ she’d constantly think.
but it wasn’t her fault, not at all. jay was just too embarrassed to face her after the bracelet incident. it wasn’t that big of a deal, but he hated how he acted. so until he could normally talk to her again, he was avoiding every interaction possible.
“hey,” dae called to y/n. “are you leaving to class soon?”
“yeah, i have a few minutes left. why? you want me gone?” she joked back with a brow raise.
the boy rolled his eyes as little giggles left the others mouths. “well no, i was just asking!”
y/n laughed as well before checking her phone. “yeah just like two more minutes and then i’ll start walking.”
“you’re done at 3, right?” sunoo asked.
“yep, i’ll walk back to you guys around that time.” she checked her phone again and grumbled out a sigh. “i guess it’s time to go..,”
the girl stood up from the table and sadly waved her goodbyes.
“go with her dude,” heeseung mumbled to jay.
the younger shot his head up. “what??”
“you always walk her, why aren’t you walking her?” jake chimed in with a harsh whisper.
“it’s just a little awkward after.. you know..,”
“that doesn’t give you a reason to not make sure she’s safe though. you know you’ll still walk her,” sunoo scowled.
the boy defeatedly sighed, knowing that his friend was right before tossing his bag over his shoulder and catching up to y/n.
as she walked, she felt her bag be taken off of her shoulders, causing her to look up at the person.
“oh you’re walking me again?”
“mhm,” he only responded.
y/n pressed her lips into a thin line that highlighted the awkward tension. she didn’t know what to say since he was unresponsive, but she couldn’t have it this way.
“jay?”
“hm?”
the girl softly gripped his wrist to stop him from walking, pulling him to the side where no other students could see them.
“why can’t you look me in the eyes?” her brows were slightly furrowed now and she crossed her arms.
“what? what are you talking about?” jay attempted to deny. “i can look you in the eyes.”
what a liar.
a puff of air left her mouth as she slightly ridiculed him. he was saying that, but he wasn’t even meeting her gaze.
y/n rolled her eyes before closing the gap between them. her hands firmly held his jaw, squishing his cheeks and forcing him to lock eyes. her head tilted as she tried to figure him out. she normally wasn’t this confident in getting a man to look at her, but for jay, she had to know.
on the other hand, the male was flustered. he felt his heart doing somersaults with how abrupt she suddenly was in doing something like this. he knew she wasn’t the ‘go for it’ type of girl, so for her to have confidence like this was melting him on the spot.
“look me in the eyes, jongseong.” she murmured, causing a light laugh to burst out of him.
y/n reflected the smile back before huffing out a sigh again. “i’m serious, look me in the eyes. are you okay? what’s wrong? are you feeling sick or something?” her hands that held his cheeks immediately started feeling his forehead for a possible heat temperature.
it wasn’t doing well for jay though that his favorite girl was putting her hands around his face. his breathing was getting heavier and his sight was blurring with her soft touches.
he closed his eyes, calming himself down before holding her wrist to stop at his cheeks.
the girl cocked her head to the side again, hearing him softly sigh as he murmured, “just keep it there, it’s making me feel better” — leaving a subtle kiss at the palm of her hands.
this time, it was her heart beating like crazy now. her hands were slightly shaking, but his hold was reassuring in every way.
“so you are sick..?” she uttered, causing a gentle laugh to leave his throat.
“something like that..,”
“jay-“
“i’m sorry for avoiding you. i’m sorry, it wasn’t right of me but i was just feeling embarrassed.” he quickly communicated.
y/n’s eyes softened at his apology. “what are you sorry for? you didn’t do anything wrong.”
“it was just embarrassing that i got a matching bracelet with you without even asking,” he clarified, scratching his head with an awkward laugh.
her heart melted at his sweet manner. even when he was trying to avoid her, he couldn’t.
“you know you could’ve just asked, jongseong,” she teased. “i would’ve said yes to matching with you.”
jay beamed an apologetic smile before turning his gaze down to their feet. “i thought you wouldn’t have wanted to.. especially since…,”
“since?”
“since you still like sunghoon..,” his heart blew out a sigh at the possibility of her still liking their friend.
his attention continued to stay lowered at their feet, and y/n only watched him try to hide his soft pout away, fluttering her stomach with butterflies once more.
“jongseong..,” she called, knees bending down so she could find his gaze from below.
the male chuckled at her act before replying, “stop using my government name.”
“why not.. jongseong?” she teased back.
“what were you gonna say?” jay murmured, ignoring her teasings but secretly liking it.
y/n giggled, clearing her throat as she responded, “do you think i still like sunghoon?”
his heart dropped to his stomach again. he hated this queasy feeling but he couldn’t stop her if it was how she felt. “don’t you..?” he murmured back to her.
the girl saw how he subtly pushed himself away from her, causing her to sigh and hold his cheeks.
“i like you, jay.”
“w..what? you what?” he flustered.
y/n grinned ear to ear. “i said i like you.. jongseong.”
she felt his cheeks heat up with a tint of red, allowing him to cheekily smile in embarrassment.
“one more time,” he murmured.
she exasperated a sigh before pulling his face towards her. immediately, a soft kiss was planted onto each others lips. it was only a peck though, the girl wasn’t confident enough yet.
jay’s lips coiled into a smile as she said, “does that show it better?”
“i think we gotta try again.”
the boy crashed his lips against hers, holding her gently with one hand at the jaw and the other at the waist. his heart was melting with every second he stayed glued to her.
y/n found her hands to be in his hair, dangling itself into his silk strands that caused soft shivers down his spine.
jay smiled into the kiss, lips curling from the sweet sensations he was receiving from his girl, allowing her to smile into it as well.
once she felt out of breath, she pulled away, only to be littered with soft pecks on her lips.
“you’re gonna be late for class, you know?” he murmured against her skin.
the girl giggled before sweetly nudging his head away. “that’s okay, we can ditch again.” she uttered in reminisce.
“are we gonna do something better than study?”
“yeah, like a date?” she impulsively spoke.
jay’s ears perked up with a hue of red colored at the tips. “you’re confident right now.. i like this side of you.”
“you make me confident,” y/n replied, blood rushing to her cheeks even more.
and it was then that it hit her. she always knew why sunghoon matched wonyoung — she brought the best out of him, and now the girl had found that. she had found her match with jay.
“will you still be confident during the date?” he challenged with his infamous smirk.
“guess you’ll just have to take me out and we’ll see.”
“let’s go then.. darling.”
oh?
her heart instantly fluttered at the new name call. “darling?” she whispered, breaths getting heavy.
“cat got your tongue now?” jay murmured as he kissed her cheeks.
“shut up.. let’s go, jongseong.” she rolled her eyes, causing a deep chuckle to be heard from him.
usually, she’d call her crush ‘loser’ and even though she wasn’t in love with sunghoon anymore, it still felt unusual for her to call jay something that’d been reserved for him.
but it didn’t matter anymore. hoon was no longer on her mind.
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆
about a month or two had gone by and ever since then, jay and y/n were going strong together.
he still walked her to class and ensured her safety came first like he usually did, but this time, he voluntarily left to the car first so he could minimize her walking.
y/n was left alone, sitting on the cemented seat as she texted her friends.
“this seat taken?” a husk and familiar voice asked from behind.
almost instantly, her heart softly sank. it was sunghoon.
she hadn’t talked to him in months, better yet, seen him in some months. ever since she got with jay, he was just never around anymore.
“hoon?” she murmured. that nickname made both of their hearts thump.
it wasn’t in a way of loving each other, but more so of missing each other. they used to be close friends after all.
sunghoon softly grinned as she shook her head ‘no’ to his question, allowing him to sit beside her.
it was awkward. they used to be friends and now, they can’t even talk to each other.
the two were introverts, but they couldn’t find it in themselves to be extroverts with each other again.
“so you and jay?” hoon suddenly uttered.
“yeah.. we just got close after you and wonyoung started dating.”
“yeah i noticed..,”
his mumble was almost incoherent to her, but she still turned to look at him. “what?”
“nothing..,” he awkwardly chuckled. “i’m happy for you though y/n. he’s a great guy.”
“yeah he is.. but thanks —” she paused for a second, “— loser.”
sunghoon softly laughed at the familiar name call. he hadn’t heard that from her in months and it was comforting in some kind of way.
“i’m happy for you too, sunghoon. let’s try and make our relationships last,” y/n joked, causing the two to cackle out quiet laughs.
as he was about to say more, jay suddenly pulled up to the curb, hinting that it was time for her to go.
she waved hoon goodbye as she got into the car and drove off.
the male kept his gaze down once they were out of his sight. that was the most they’ve talked in months, and it’d honestly probably be the last.
he sighed as he wore a small smile. she left too soon for him to even mention how much he missed her, how much he missed everything — their jokes, their talks, their teasings.
they used to always talk about everything and be each others comfort but things were different now.
he was happy in his relationship with wonyoung, but he just missed y/n as a friend.
sunghoon let out another soft sigh while thinking back to the heartwarming memories. “miss you.. loser.” he mumbled to himself, giving a faint grin at his thoughts.
the male stayed stuck on how they used to be until a notification shifted his attention. it was a text from wonyoung, telling where she’d be and how they should meet for another study date.
he smiled before immediately texting back and leaving the scene.
and there it was.
sunghoon and y/n went their separate ways, falling in love with someone else who wasn’t their mirrored self, someone who brought the best in them.

MLIST
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
Stephen was a clever man, constantly innovating and thinking about ideas for the magazine. His ability to think on his feet was truly remarkable and a valuable asset for a journalist.
Whenever Stephen had writer's block, he transformed into a different person. He secluded himself in the office, emerging only to eat and drink or use the restroom. It felt as though he wasn't even in the apartment with you.
As Stephen's girlfriend, you took it upon yourself to help him as often as you could. However, he has kept himself locked up in his office for almost two whole days and didn't even realize he missed your three-year anniversary.
It was time to bring him out again. You couldn't just tell him what he missed, but to know he ignored the date was also heartbreaking.
You knocked firmly on the door before striding in. Balancing a plate with a peanut butter sandwich and some orange quarter, you were determined to get him to eat and talk to you. It wasn't a full meal, but hopefully he was going to eat it and have a talk with you.
"Steve, I have a snack for you," you said softly, trying to break Stephen's focus on the computer screen. He let out a small sigh, adjusting his glasses before finally turning to recognize you.
"Darling, I'm busy right now. Please just place the plate next to me and leave me. I'm alright, just lost in my thoughts," he responded with a hint of exasperation in his tone. He quickly returned his attention to the computer screen and resumed his reading.
"You’ve been in here for two days." You whispered, worried for him.
“I’m well aware of how long I’ve been in here,” Stephen replied with sarcastic irritation, still gazing at his computer screen. He was searching through different articles and stories for the upcoming pitch. He was never angry usually, mostly insecure. Constantly trying to make everyone love him.
“I have to find something before it’s too late. Stop worrying and go do something else.” Stephen had a habit of ignoring you during these writer’s block moments, which led to many arguments over the years.
"Right, sorry." You muttered as you retraced your steps, letting the door slam shut with more force than expected. All you wanted was to offer your help, but he seemed to throw out your efforts.
As soon as you shut the door, you could hear Stephen sigh in annoyance, pinching the space between his eyebrows with two fingers. He hated when you got all silent and quiet whenever he was like this, but he knew his work was more important in moments like these.
A few hours passed, and the only sound coming from the office was that of the keyboard typing and the mouse clicking. Soon, Stephen started to grumble out of frustration. He leaned back in his chair, pushing up his glasses before looking at the closed door. He was wondering what you had been doing.
It was midnight, and he remained secluded, failing to acknowledge the significance of your special date. You have shared three years of love, yet for the second time in three years, he has forgotten. You were eating the cake you bought, sitting alone in the kitchen. You had taken a slice, but your appetite was long gone.
Sweet and silent tears rolled down your cheeks to your plate. You tried to wipe them away with the sleeves of your hoodie, but you finished by letting them roll down. He didn't even remember, nor have he did anything about it.
Stephen had lost all track of time, only thinking of the pitch that was coming up. His girlfriend was the last thing on his mind at the moment, even if it was your three year anniversary.
He sat in his office for a couple more minutes before slowly sitting up. His back was hurting from being in that position for so long, and he was beginning to feel hungry and dehydrated. He had eaten the sandwich, yet that was a long time ago.
He slowly stood up from his desk, heading to the kitchen. The lights in the apartment were dimmed, but he could still see you sitting by yourself with an empty plate.
He walked into the kitchen, leaning up against the wall as he looked at you. He took in your tired and solemn expression, wondering why you were crying. He knew he was cold during writer's block, but to make you cry? He must have made you mad.
He crossed his arms and tilted his head, looking at you curiously before he spoke. “Why are you crying?” he asked bluntly, not realizing what day it was at all.
"Why am I crying?" you scoffed, rising from your chair. "Why am I crying?!" you repeated, the anguish evident in your voice. You walked away and locked yourself in the bathroom. It was your time to be left alone.
He rolled his eyes as you walked away from him and entered the bathroom. Stephen knew you well enough to know that you were upset about something, but he had no idea what. He stood by the bathroom door, listening to you.
“Come on. Open the door. I can’t help you if you don’t talk to me.” He said, trying to keep himself from getting irritated again.
"Look at the fucking date."
Stephen raised an eyebrow as you yelled from the bathroom. He was confused until your words registered in his mind, and he went silent for a moment. You never cursed around him, he was nervous, to say the least.
He let out a breath and looked at the calendar. It finally dawned on him. It was your anniversary today. He groaned and rested his forehead against the door in slight annoyance, pinching the bridge of his nose.
“Open the door, princess. Please?” Stephen asked you, a bit of a pleading tone in his voice. He felt guilty for being so dismissive of you, letting work and writer’s block get in the way of your anniversary. He knew forgot about it last year too, and it made him feel even worse.
"Leave me alone Steve, you locked yourself all day.".
He sighed from behind the door, banging his head against it in annoyance. He hated it when you got mad around him, but he knew it was his fault.
“You know I’m going through writer’s block. I need to find something new for this critique. It’s my job.” He retorted, trying to make you understand his trouble.
"It’s always the same excuse, you told me you forgot because of your writer's block. It’s always the same, I know your job’s important but I am too!"
He frowned as you retorted and called him out on his previous behaviour. It was true, but he didn’t want to admit to it. He didn’t want to admit that he had prioritized work over you on meaningful days.
“You know how important my job is to me, darling. I can’t control when I get writer’s block. That’s just how it is.” He said, a bit of a snappy tone in his tone.
"I know that! But you don’t have to be so damn cold when you have it." You let out, sitting at edge of the bathtub.
He sighed in despair, leaning his forehead against the door. His back was starting to hurt from hunching over his desk all day.
“I’m not purposely being cold to you. I’m just trying to find an idea. You know how I am when I get like this, I get super focused on writing.”
Stephen gently knocked on the door. “Please, just come out. I know you’re mad at me, I just want to talk to you face to face.”
He took you a lot to stand up and carefully undo the lock restraining the door, soon enough you were back in your sitting position. You could never stay mad at him for so long, that’s just how it was.
He quietly opened the door and took in your expression, feeling even more guilty for making you so upset. He could never handle it when you were like this. He slowly walked over and sat down next to you on the bathtub. He wrapped an arm around your shoulders, holding you gently but making sure you couldn’t pull away.
“Are you mad at me?” Stephen asked in a quiet voice, stating the obvious.
"Of course I am!" You held his gaze for a moment as he acknowledged your eyes gleaming with tears.
He sighed calmly and looked at you with a tired expression. He knew he had messed up, prioritizing work over you. But he was going through writer’s block and needed something for the pitch.
“I know, I’m sorry, I’m sorry I upset you. But I have to find something to write about. It’s my job, baby. You know that.” He said, trying to use that as an explanation once again, in hopes that you’d understand. He gripped your hand, pressing gentle kisses alongside your knuckles.
He squeezed your wrist gently, silently begging for you to understand. He hated seeing you upset, especially since it was almost always his fault. And he hated being reminded he was was im the wrong.
Stephen took a small breath and continued, his tone softer. “I’m sorry, honey. I didn’t mean to forget our anniversary, I just..” he paused, trying to find the right words, “got so caught up with everything.”
He gently pulled you closer as he let go of your hand, resting his forehead against yours. Stephen softly stroked your arm, his mind racing with different ways to apologize to you. “I didn’t mean to push you away. I just get so hyper-focused when I’m trying to find a new idea. I know I’m terrible at dealing with it, but please baby, don't be mad..”
You couldn't find the words to answer and you just gently nodded, whipping your tears away. The slight touch of mascara you applied this morning ran alongside your tears.
He could see the dejection and disappointment on your face and it hurt him. He hated that he had made you feel like this. Stephen shifted positions, turning to face you properly before he spoke.
“You’re upset about more than just me forgetting our anniversary, aren’t you?” He asked softly, still rubbing your arm comfortingly.
He knew you well enough to tell that you had more to say, even if you weren’t saying it aloud. He knew your body language, and how everything worked. He could tell when you were holding back from saying something, and you were holding something back.
He gently squeezed your arm, a silent prompt to speak up and tell him what was on your mind. After a moment of silence, he spoke up again, his voice gentle.
“Come on, sweetheart. Tell me what’s wrong. Please?”
"You always seem to love your work more than me." You knew it wasn't entirely accurate, but it wasn't entirely false either. He frowned as you spoke, biting the inside of his cheek in irritation. He didn’t appreciate that you kept bringing up him ignoring you for his job.
“That’s not true, and you know it.” He let out, slightly troubled.
"But it sure seem like it." You added.
His irritation subsided after a moment and he sighed. He knew you weren’t technically wrong and that made him feel more guilty.
“I.. I understand that, and you’re kinda right.. But you gotta know, my work is all I ever had. I can’t risk loosing my job because I didn’t write in time."
"I know, but you won’t lose your job for that."
He ignored your last statement, since apparently that‘s what he was good at recently.He let go of your arm and gently cupped your face, lifting your head gently so that he could meet your gaze.
“Sometimes I do get hyper-focused on my work and forget about other things, like our anniversary. But that doesn’t mean I don’t love you. I do.” He said, holding your face in his hands, the urge to kiss you.
"I love you too, that’s the problem." You tried to look down, but his grip remained still on your chin.
Stephen moved closer to you, grabbing your hips and tugging you onto his lap. He wrapped his arms around you, holding you close to him. He nuzzled his face into your shoulder, taking in the warmth of your body.
“I know I messed up and I need to make up for forgetting our anniversary. So, I have a proposition for you, my love.” He murmured into your shoulder, holding you tight against him.
"What proposition?" You asked, intrigued.
He hummed against your shoulder before replying. “I’ll promise to set aside my work, all my research and computer work, for the rest of the night. In return, I just want you to help me relax. No more tears, I hate seeing you cry.”
"What do you mean?" You questionnée, even though you knew damn well what he meant.
He leaned back a bit and met your gaze. He smiled gently before replying, one hand moving to your waist.
“I just want you to be with me for the rest of the night. Cuddle with me, make me feel good and loved. I need to feel like I have some sort of. I don’t know, intimacy, again. I need you to help me with that.”
"Tomorrow is Saturday, ditch work tomorrow spend the day with me." You asked taking his hand, hoping you could convince him. After two days of ignoring you, even he missed being near his loved one.
He smiled again as you took his hand in yours, squeezing gently. Stephen nodded in agreement, bringing your hand to his lips and gently kissing your pulse point.
“I promise I’ll spend tomorrow hanging out with you, baby.” He said, holding your hand against his chest.
"You should take a shower before bed." You giggled, finally finding something positive in all that pain.
He gave a small laugh and nodded. Stephen could tell you had slightly calmed down. He liked that he was able to make you not so upset. "I don’t stink!" He let out and sniffed his armpit before making a disgusted expression.
"Yeah, alright. I will.” He said with a small grin as he moved his hands down to your hips. His hands stayed on your hips and he let his thumbs rub small, gentle circles on your skin.
“Come with me into the shower, please? You can wash my hair.” He said, his voice suddenly becoming a bit more needy. He knew how much you loved his hair and playing with his curls and the invitation was too good to refuse.
"I’ll use my strawberry shampoo." You said, slowly unbuttoning his blue shirt. He smiled, tilting his head to nuzzle your neck gently.
“My favorite.” He mumbled against your skin, placing a gentle kiss on the side of your throat.
"Start the shower," you started as you sat up from his lap, "I’ll come in soon." You left the bathroom leaving him hard on the spot. He watched your back as you closed the door behind you, he had no idea where you were going, but he continued taking down his clothes. He placed his glasses on the side of the sink, where he always placed them.
He watched you leave the bathroom and bit the inside of his cheek, feeling a bit excited by your words and the feeling of seeing you walk away. Stephen started the shower and waited, knowing you were up to something. He was hoping it was a pleasant surprise; he was craving your touch now.
He stood in the warm water flowing from the shower head, his mind racing. He wanted you to come in and help him and touch him. He wanted to feel your hands on his dick, running over his stomach. He wanted to feel you under the warm, streaming water. His forehead met with the glass door, as his hand waited for you on his thigh.
He huffed and bit back a small moan, feeling impatient and wanting you to join him. He closed his eyes and placed his left hand against the shower wall, bracing himself. He felt a bit antsy, wondering what was taking so long for you to arrive.
He wanted you to come get in the shower with him and touch him, so he called out from inside the shower. “How long are you going to make me wait, babe?”
Little did he know you were waiting on the other side of the door, oblivious teasing him for the two days he ignored you. "Oh who knows? Maybe two days, just like you did?"
He opened his eyes and groaned, knowing you were getting revenge against him for neglecting you for the past two days. He leaned his forehead against the shower door, sighing.
“That’s not fair, baby..” he whined from behind the door, wanting you to come into the shower.
"Was is fair that you forgot our anniversary?"
He grunted again and hung his head. He knew you had a point. It wasn’t fair that he forgot your anniversary.
“No, it wasn’t fair. I know it wasn’t fair and I don’t deserve it, but please.. I really need you in here with me.” He said, knowing he was begging.
“Please, I need you.. I’ll do anything you want, just come in the shower with me.” He pleaded, hoping you would join.
"God, you’re desperate," you said as you swung open the door, seeing his figure pressed against the glass.
His eyes shot open as the glass door suddenly opened. He was faced with your body, standing in the entrance of the shower room. Stephen let out a shaky breath, wanting you so badly. He held out a hand to you, looking at you with pleading eyes.
“Please. Need you, now.”
You clothes were soon on the ground next to his as he watched with an intense gaze. He watched you undress, his mind going blank as he observed your body. He felt his breath catch in his throat, the sight exciting him. He reached out to you, grabbing your wrist and yanking you into the shower with him.
Feeling you in the shower with him, he quickly turned you around before pinning you against the shower wall. He caged you in, his hands on the wall on either side of your head.
Stephen loomed over you, leaning down to capture your lips in a needy kiss. You right hand found its way to his curls, holding them firmly. Your other one flew down to his stomach and lower.
He immediately let out a whine at the feeling of your hands on his stomach. His body was craving your touch, and the feeling of your hand slowly moving down his body felt incredible.
He broke the kiss, his breathing heavy and he was becoming more desperate. He pressed his body against yours, wanting to feel as much skin on skin contact as possible.
Your hand was quick to reach his dick, stocking it from the tip. He gasped and his eyes shut closed tightly. He leaned forwards, letting his head fall into the crook of your neck and he let out a soft moan.
Stephen couldn’t help it. Just the simple touch of your hand made him so worked up. It was overwhelming him, in the best way possible.
He took a shaky breath and spoke against your neck. “Please..”
Stephen’s voice was soft and needy in your ear. He slowly began to press kisses into your neck, his lips gently brushing over your wet skin. His voice was desperate as he spoke.
“Need more, please. please.”
"Like that?" You asked teasingly as your hand moved in a faster motion around his length. He whimpered and nodded, his body pressing further against yours. His hand clutched onto the shower wall, trying to keep his knees from giving out. The feeling of your hand on him was overwhelming and he wanted so much more.
“Yes, please don’t stop."
His voice was almost a whine at this point and he couldn’t handle the sensations. It was almost too much, but it didn’t take much to push him completely over the edge. The sensation in his lower stomach rose. Under all his mess, you could feel yourself heated up as your pussy clenched over nothing.
Stephen pulled his head back so he could look at you, his eyes were dark and pleading. Soft tears were forming in the bridge of his eyes, hidden by the water of the shower.
“Baby… more, please. I’m begging..”
He couldn’t form proper sentences and that’s when you knew you had to let go. Your hand stopped their motion as you watched him get the orgasm he craved so badly denied.
He whined at the sudden loss of stimulation, his grip on the shower wall tightening as his legs trembled. He whimpered and looked at you with pleading eyes, frustrated, wanting you to continue. His grip changed to hold your waist with both his hands. He was so close, but you just had to tease him.
He was so frustrated and worked up that he couldn’t think straight. It took a moment for him to get coherent sentences out as his chest rose up and down.
“Why’d you stop? I was so close. I was almost there, you know I was..”
You cupped his cheeks with your fingers, gently passing over his lips easily folding his mouth open. "Don’t you rather cum in me than on my hand, sweet boy?"
The words went straight to his brain sending him in heaven, the thought making him moan and shudder.
“I... I do, yes I do..” He mumbled, his knees still feeling weak from the stimulation and the lack of it.
“Please, can I..?” He asked, grabbing your hip and tugging you closer to him.
He let out a shaky breath as you spoke into his ear, his entire body being sent into overdrive. Your words and gentle kisses on his jaw drove him crazy.
"Make it up for our anniversary." You whispered in his ear giving his jawline a few kisses.
At your words, he grabbed your hips and positioned himself between your legs. He wanted to do anything and everything to make up forgetting your anniversary.
Stephen leaned down and pressed his forehead on your shoulder, trying to compose himself enough to speak. He slowly pushed himself into you, letting out a low moan as he did. You could practically feel his tension in the air, he needed you so badly.
He held onto your hips and leaned against you, unable to form words in his blissed out state. The feeling of you around him was intense and overwhelming, and his mind was hazy.
He began to slowly move his dick in you. His body was taking over his brain, his focus entirely on you and the sensations. He was trying to move at a slow pace, but he was so worked up it was hard to keep a rhythm going.
He groaned against you, his breaths coming out in soft pants. He couldn’t never get bored of you clenching around him and he didn’t know how he was going to hold it together any longer.
“Please... I can’t… too good...” he whined in between breaths.
"You’re doing so well Steve." You moved with him, your hips meeting his pace, even faster. Your hands were still in his curls as you pulled his face to yours, kissing him in an angry kiss.
The praise and feeling of your kiss had him moaning against your lips as he tried to maintain any semblance of speed in his movement. Each time he moved was bringing him closer and closer to the edge, orgasm building within him again. He felt like he was going to explode.
As he kissed you back, he moved his hand to the back of your hips and held you against him. He groaned as he spoke, his voice shaky and breathless.
“I’m so close...” He mumbled against your lips, his breaths coming out in short stutters. You could sence it by the way his cock twitched on your walls.
He knew he wasn’t going to last much longer, the feeling was too intense and he was already so worked up before. His body was begging him to let go.
"Just keep it in for me alright? Don’t let go before I tell you." You asked, wanting to tease him to the end and to get your release as well.
He bit his lip in an effort to hold back a whine at your words and the fact that you were still teasing him. He knew you had a plan to get your orgasm, and he was desperate for his own, but he wanted to please you as much as possible. After all it was his fault if you were mad.
“I’ll try.. I’ll try to hold it for you… please"
He was on the edge of being overwhelmed, the need to release and let go nearly drowning him. Feeling you around him and listening to you speak, the knot was very close to cracking.
He needed you to give him some sort of permission, something to let him know he was allowed to finally let go. You felt yourself getting closer as well, but his pace getting sloppier didn’t help so you trusted harder again.
"Not till I tell you." You repeated.
He let out another whine at your words, feeling himself becoming unraveled. Trying to hold back from letting himself go and give him what he wanted so badly was torture.
“I need to.. I’m not… I’m not going to be able to… please…" He managed to get out, his words a jumbled mess. You were right on edge by seeing the state he was getting in, the show he was putting for you. He may have missed your special date, that was a good gift.
"Go on."
As soon as the words were out of your mouth, he lost all control. He came with a guttural moan, his body shaking and he clung onto you, his breaths coming out in short gasps.
Stephen couldn’t think or do anything except hold onto you and try to get his bearings. He pressed his forehead against your shoulder, still trembling from his orgasm.
His arms wrapped around your waist in a tight grip, holding you against him. He was panting and trying to get his breathing back to normal which would probably take a while. It took several moments for him to speak, his mind still swimming.
“That.. that was… holy…”
You let go of his grip, leaving the shower to grab a towel and wrap yourself in it. Before leaving him all alone again, you whispered just loud enough so he would hear it.
"Happy anniversary."

A/n: the long awaited part 4!! Hope y’all aren’t disappointed, trying not to think so hardly on this part bc I scrapped and rewrote this so many times 😅
Tumblr media
You're unsure of when it started during the night, but as you sat at the booth with Violet, Rihannon, and Nadine; something stirred in your chest. You desperately tried to look interested in the conversation, trying to meet the eyes of Rihannon trying to focus on the way she animatedly told a story. Laugh when the women poked fun at Violet for something cheeky she’d bring up. Adding input to Nadine’s questions despite having to ask her to repeat herself without having your eyes dragging themselves to look at the other side of the bar.
Who was she?
She wore a dressed down pale blue healer uniform, her skin flawless free of relics and tattoos, glossy perfect red hair that cascaded down her back in waves. She radiated bubbliness from what you observed as she laughed at whatever Bodhi said or did a little dance when her friend sunk a billiard into a pocket. She always seemed to go right back to chatting with him. You couldn’t bear watching her cling to him, but you couldn’t drag your eyes away.
You were well aware you had no right to be sitting there, stomach churning with a bitterness of cold ire…but here you were doing just that.
Rihannon clicked her teeth, making you snap your attention back to the group. You didn’t even try to offer a coy look—this was the second time one of them caught you. You had tried the last two hours to hide your irritation, but it just kept beckoning to the surface. Slowly ticking away within you as if you were going to burst at the seams.
“Okay, what is going on between you two?” She laid her palms flat on the table.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” You took a sip of your drink, acting as nonchalant as you could.
She gave you an incredulous look. “The fact you shied away from him all first year, then the first night of break whatever that was.” She waved her hand. “The other day during breakfast, when Dain came to grab him for the leadership meeting, and it was clear as day he was practically undressing you with his eyes when we first arrived.” she rattled off.
“It’s like I’m watching a romance novel unfold in real time.” Nadine said dramatically, a hand moving to her forehead feigning fainting.
You cringed, “it’s-it’s definitely not like that.”
“Not like what?” Quinn interrupted walking up to your own group. Bodhi and Imogen still had been at the table.
The mystery girl touching his built bicep. He had discarded his jacket an hour ago, his rebellion mark on display underneath his tight short sleeve t-shirt. “Ohhh,” she followed your gaze to Bodhi. “Immy told me all about this.” She said in delight to your dismay, taking a seat next to Nadine.
You brought your attention over to the curly haired blond girl. “Does everyone know about this ‘something’ except the two people this ‘something’ is about?” You snapped.
Everyone seemed to have an exciting interest in the nonexistent relationship between you and your childhood best friend.
Quinn merely raised her hands defensively, Rihannon and Nadine awkwardly sipping their drinks looking at the table interested in the wood grain.
“We’re all in the same wing, same section, Y/n it’s hard to ignore the hot and cold between the two of you.” Violet had a softened look in her eyes, being the most sympathetic toward you.
You flushed realizing your outburst, not meaning to aim it at your new found friends. The gnawing bitter feeling was just eating at you, and you couldn’t stop it from being all consuming.
“Sorry,” you mumbled, a scowl on your lips, staring into the clear fizzy liquid in your glass. Despite the tension you created, you looked at the bubbly girl across from you. “Quinn, who is that girl?”
She had a hesitant look on her face, her brown eyes swirled with trepidation. “Ariante, a third year healer.” She offered a short response, seeming to know more than she let on.
You only nodded, turning back to the other side of the bar watching the billiards tables. Ariante, the beautiful young woman, was lining up to shoot the shot, and shot Bodhi a wink before shooting. A small snarl left your lip unknowingly at the sight, leaving all the group to cast worried glances your way.
You grimaced at your behavior, not entirely sure why you had visibly been so riled up at the sight. “I’m gonna get some water.” You stood up, and left the group without another word.
Tumblr media
Ariante skimmed her dainty plain manicured hands over Bodhi’s biceps as she giggled over something he told the group he played with. Usually her advances didn’t bother him, last year he had given in to them as a distraction many times when Y/n avoided him like a disease. Tonight though, his chest hammered in annoyance—maybe not just with her in general, but everything tonight seemed to be so overstimulating.
The loud tavern, how he fought a flinch every time the que would knock against a billiard, the musty smell of alcohol and fried food permeating the space, and how fucking unbearably hot he was.
He knew it had nothing due to the summer weather, that the heat that festered deep within him was caused by something wholly different.
Usually he’d use churam to block Cuir out, but the effects of the few drinks he had made it harder to keep that mental shield up and his dragon’s emotions started to take over. Of course Cuir and Cleasaí chose tonight of all nights to fight.
He had spent a year being accustomed to this, but he worried about you.
You still had been clueless to everything, your dragon stubbornly kept you in the dark, which had frustrated both him and Cuir. You didn’t deserve any of that, and he couldn’t help the pang of guilt he felt when he thought about it. He watched how tense you were at the booth, the girl’s giggling at what seemed like your expense; a scowl on your pretty lips at the interaction.
Another wave of heat filled and irritation rippled through him, and he screwed his eyes shut trying to ground himself. He had ripped his jacket off an hour ago, but to no avail aided any relief to his skin. It seemed it only made the pretty third year healer cling to him more. And the only aid that was brought, was to the disdain that rose with the proximity of her.
“Damn it Henrick!” Quinn stomped her foot frustratedly, making him open his eyes again. “I thought I was playing with an amateur?”
Sawyer had a broad grin as he nabbed the gold coins on the corner of the parallel table across from the one him and Imogen played at. “Beginners luck?” He shrugged casually.
The curly haired blond furrowed her eyebrows at the redhead. “Mhm, sure. Beginner’s luck my ass.”
Imogen cackled at her friend. “You’re the one that suggests putting coins down.”
Quinn mimicked Imogen, before a playful glare settled on her features. “Shove it Cardulo, I’m gonna go wallow in pity now if you need me.” She handed the cue to Sawyer before flouncing off to the rest of the group they came with.
Bodhi’s brown eyes not paying any mind to the feisty third year rider as she joined the booth, he instead had been focused on you again. Watching how your tongue darted in between your soft looking lips licking them, the same scowl still lingering on your face.
He had longed to get a feeling of what your lips felt like since he was barely an adult. Doing anything at this point to have a taste of you, knowing he shouldn’t have felt that way. You had always been just barely out of his reach, but he would have risked anything to have that moment as selfish as it sounded.
You were his best friend.
It was more than the idea of blurring the lines of your friendship that stopped him in the past; you were never meant to be anyone else’s, but who was chosen for you. Your parents had made you a lady of the Aretian aristocracy. The intent to secure a cushy life to make sure you would never have to experience war and hardship like they had—even if it wasn’t a love match. You were forced to take the decision they made for you with poise and grace. Exposed to the corrupt society of the aristocracy that lurked behind the violence since a preteen, never supposed to know war and violence like he had. But by the time the peak of the rebellion happened, and Execution Day arrived—it had been too late for the first hand you had been dealt with. Another decision instead handed to you from a choice that hadn’t been yours to ever make.
It was self indulgent thought, but the moment he knew you safely crossed the parapet—there was a hope that ignited in Bodhi’s chest he hadn’t felt in a long while. Despite the blatant act of avoidance on your part, he quietly watched your every move the first year.
Made sure Imogen spent extra time training with you so you’d be ready for your next challenge, telling her what she needed to critique you on from sparring lessons. Insisting Garrick to convince you to eat more than what you usually did so you could bulk muscle to help ease through the gauntlet. Pleading with Xaden to rearrange squads in the flame section so he could keep a better eye on you. Every action in efforts to aid you from the help of your mutual found family was a coercion from him; so he would know you’d have a shot at surviving this hellscape.
For only a measly chance of you to finally acknowledge him.
It had only been a coincidence (or was it? Cleasaí was known to be petty) you had bonded with Cuir’s other half. The mated dragons hadn’t talked since the end of his first year. The first half of being bonded to the notorious green filled with tumultuous arguments that he didn’t know what started from. They had only been recently mated in the last decade from what Cuir told him.
Bodhi swore he did more supply runs for churam than weapons by the end of the year before they went no contact, and just coexisted in the Vale with one another.
He would have preferred that over feeling the wavering aggression through the bond at this very moment.
“Handsome boy,” Ariante cooed, snapping her fingers to get his attention from across the table. Realizing he had zoned out again staring at you, Ridoc clapped him on the back.
“Yeah handsome boy...” he purred mockingly. Bodhi shrugged his hand off quite hastily. He was not in the mood for the second year’s comedic relief…and the overly inebriated physical touch of the counterpart.
Imogen sensed his discomfort by how tense he had looked, his posture usually more lax, or a boyish grin that had been replaced with a grimace. “Gamlyn, go get us some water.” She barked, face set to a hard grimace.
Ridoc with wide eyes in the fear of the short woman, saluted the group before walking off to the bar.
Bodhi reminded himself to thank her later once he was in a better mood. Instead he twisted his face into something that barely showed interest, not like it mattered, the healer was two shits to the wind at this point. Just caring his eyes were on her. Smiling brightly once he turned back to her, even if it was a stoic look he had on.
“I need you to watch as you lose this round.” She giggled, grabbing the cue from her friend’s hand.
The tawny skinned man watched disinterestedly as she made a show of setting her shot up. She swayed her hips to the table, making sure to press her chest down into the polished wood edges so her low cut tank top showed her cleavage as she lined up her shot. She made eye contact with him, offering a seductive wink, before clumsily shooting and completely missing the pocket. If he wasn’t so aggravated, he could have laughed at the scene.
It was Imogen’s turn now, and he subconsciously let his attention wander back to the booth again, noting you were now absent from the table.
It shouldn’t have been a big deal, but his heart skipped a beat in panic. He scanned the tavern looking for a glimpse of where you could have gone. He could spot you out of a crowd anywhere—from the way you wore your hair to the way you carried yourself.
His brown eyes searched the makeshift dance floor in between tables, the line for the bathroom, the exits of the tavern. The sense of relief when he finally found you should have eased his heart, instead it pounded louder and louder as his vision tunneled. Bodhi’s stomach churned with a burning green feeling, watching you sit at an empty side of the bar with Ridoc, smiling at him as the pair of you talked.
Tumblr media
“So yeah, then Imogen told me to grab some water for them, and now I’m here doing that.” Ridoc rambled on about his night. Unbeknownst to him, you had spent the majority of the night meticulously eyeing the group from the booth. But you nodded along, idling swirling your finger along the lip of your cup, letting his word vomit become a white noise in your brain. “Imogen has a scary way of demanding things.”
A smirk had crept onto your face, replacing the frown you wore. Ridoc was always honest, but it was amusing to hear him drunkenly bare his soul at the bar over the silliest details. It had almost been enough to forget the prying animosity that filled your veins.
“Who are you telling? I have known her my whole life.” You reminded him rather distractedly.
Despite talking to him, your attention was still flicking towards the quieter side of the tavern—still invested in the man you’ve been stubbornly hiding your feelings from poorly and the pretty girl that clung to him. The game of billiards was dying down, only her friend and Imogen still playing one another.
Bodhi sat backwards in a chair off to the side, his chest pressed against the back, arms casually draped across the wooden top rail, and head hung low as he sipped from the bottle of ale he had been nursing. Ariante perched in a chair beside him, leaning over into his ear to talk. Her lips mere centimeters from him had your heart thumping so hard that you could hear it in your ears.
“Yeah, but you’re not like her or them in fact.” He shrugged.
That made you turn back to Ridoc, who didn’t realize you were only half heartedly invested in the conversation. Or if he did, he didn’t make it known.
“Like they’re all scary broody motherfuckers, and you're just you. Intimidating sure, but not all broody and aggressive.”
You let out a dry chuckle, “language please, they are my friends.”
He raised his full hands defensively, ignoring the fact he sloshed water all over him. “Sorry. You know what I mean though.”
You leaned your head to the side, a quizzical expression on your features. “Elaborate Gamlyn.”
You might have been aware of what he meant, just for the sake of your entertainment you didn’t mind hearing the inebriated man’s ramble of what he thought. It was the only thing that was keeping the pent up emotions beneath the surface.
“Well, you’re kind of lady-like?” He tested the word then nodding. “Yeah, lady like. Not that they don’t have manners—they have better manners than me, but you’re like a refined woman.” His eyes got big and arms were flailing as he animatedly spoke, water sloshing on him.
“Would you be surprised if I said I had been a lady?” You interrupted his spiel.
“No shit, like tea and biscuits, go for a promenade around the garden kind of lady?” He slurred in disbelief with an attempt of an accent.
The way he had said it made it hard to stifle your laugh. “Dowry to my name and all.” You mocked using a posh accent as well.
He made a strangled noise, as he puffed his cheeks out to prevent laughing. “Shit that was the worst accent I’ve ever heard.”
You tilted your back, laughing loudly as he snorted, unable to contain himself. “Thanks for your honesty, yours was just as awful.” You tried to compose yourself.
“I’m not the one that comes from the Aretian aristocracy though.” He said through a fit of giggles. You scoffed, shoving him slightly, giggling more when you had to grab his arm to keep him from stumbling over.
Once the laughter died down, Ridoc had started to talk your ear off again, but of course your focus went elsewhere. Your breath caught in your throat, the amusement on your face slipping.
Bodhi was shamelessly staring at you when you looked over this time. His eyes dark, and stone faced watching the side you resided on. He tilted his head back, draining the remainder of his drink. You couldn’t help to watch the expanse of his throat as he drank the rest of his drink, watching how his Adam’s Apple bobbed as he did so.
You gulped quietly, suddenly imagining how it would be to nip at the column of his thick neck. If he would squirm under your touch or make any soft noises if you kissed up his jaw…you were just torturing yourself at this point.
He the. swung his leg over his seat, muttering something to the pretty redhead, not waiting for a response as he made his way towards you.
Shit.
You panicked drifting back to the drunk man in front of you.
“So did you have—like—a betrothed before this?” Ridoc asked, rubbing the back of his neck, still oblivious you hadn’t been listening. “Is that why we’ve never seen you hook up with someone?!” He gasped as if he solved the biggest mystery, connecting non existent dots.
You could throttle him, trying not to watch the towering figure approach you.
“No, no, no!” You covered your face in your hands, cheeks flushing. “It never got that far, well there were a few arrangements that never went through.”
“Damn, your parents were slacking.” He scoffed jokingly.
“Ridoc,” you glared at him. Any amusement or relief from Ridoc now gone, hitting a nerve within you. The thought of your late parents always causing an ache in your chest and a knot in your stomach.
“Yeah?”
“Shut up,” Bodhi finished for you, coming up right behind him. He jumped, obviously startled by the new presence, and that it was Bodhi nonetheless. But he quickly recovered, turning to the taller man.
“You always jump right in at the most convenient times, handsome boy?” He questioned in a teasing tone. Handsome boy?
Bodhi glowered, stepping closer to your squad mate. “Call me that again—”
“Bo!” A high pitched shrill voice cut him off. It resembled nails on a chalkboard causing you to wince. Ariante appeared from behind Bodhi, a bright bubbly smile as she stumbled around him, grabbing his arm for support. “You didn’t wait for me.” She pouted playfully.
You had to fight the noise of disgust that wanted to escape your lips, but your facial expression gladly showed what you couldn’t verbally. The rational side of you knew you shouldn’t be reacting this way to a girl you’ve never met. You were past the point of rational though.
She then acknowledged you, her eyes a bright teal that sparkled sticking out her manicured hand. “I’m Ariante.”
You subtly glanced at your hands that were unkempt, nails nearly to the nubs with hangnails.
Gods, she really was everything you weren’t even down to the fingers.
You politely stuck your hand out, limply clasping hers. You hoped she wouldn’t feel your calloused fingers or notice how unladylike your hands were compared to hers as you introduced yourself.
“You know Bo?” She mused. Her hold still on him, despite her being perfectly stable. And the way his nickname came out of her mouth, you think you could regurgitate everything you’ve consumed today.
You offered a strained smile. “We grew up together actually.”
“How sweet!” She practically squealed. “I think it’s great how close knit all of you are!”
The tone deaf statement snipped the final straw of your patience and self control. No, you couldn’t let the feelings lay idly underneath any longer.
“I would say we all are,” you nodded. “I guess that’s what happens when all your parents are murdered in front of you.” You said it as if it was the most casual thing to leave your lips. The smile she wore faltered, and you could see Ridoc shove his hands in his pockets, whistling.
“Y/n…” Bodhi warned.
It could be treason speaking so freely of this, you hadn’t cared at the moment.
“What?” You said innocently, brushing off the warning look you know so well. She had started to sputter an apology, but you cut her off. “But how does such a sweet thing like you know Bodhi?” You asked, a smile growing sinisterly.
In your peripheral vision, you see Bodhi’s face pale.
“We’re acquainted.” He quickly answered, getting out of her grip as he reached over and grabbed the water out of Ridoc hands that were nearly empty from him constantly spilling. He gulped the water like a fish needing water, clearly uncomfortable.
“Very acquainted.” She fluttered her lashes towards him, tone suggestive. Brushing off your awkward interaction.
You made a noise of understanding. Everything you thought was confirmed by two words. Your thoughts lingering and spiraling. The idea of Bodhi intertwined with someone else was nauseating…even infuriating. Everything had drowned out by your heartbeat in your ears, Ridocs words were now inaudible, but assuming he was making a joke. Ariante shrilled giggles didn’t even affect you.
Why were you so mad? You had no right, you’ve been so awful to him the last couple of years—there was never a chance for you. Every interaction you two have had was just rekindling your friendship the past week not meaning anything more. Every poke and prod from your group of friends was something they misinterpreted between the two of you. You knew you shouldn’t have thought too hard on their words and jests, but deep down you only felt crushed of the hope there could have been.
Crack. You looked down at your glass that had been in your hand, the glass in between your knuckles nearly crushed.
The group flitted to you and the cup, even some of the surrounding patrons looked towards you warily.
“Are you alright?” Bodhi was the first to speak up.
“Just absolutely peachy.” You murmured, sliding the object towards the other side of the bar.
“Wow, all you riders are so strong.” Ariante laughed nervously. If this could have been any worse, you weren’t sure if you wanted to punch something or cry now.
“Excuse me,” fighting the lump in your throat. Standing up quickly walking towards the nearest exit without a word.
You walked outside, not quite being able to comprehend what just happened in the matter of seconds. Clenching and unclenching your fists, your chest heaving as everything felt as if it was closing in, pacing on the cobblestone outside the tavern. The smell of incoming rain permeating the humid air that blanketed over the quaint town. Usually a smell that eased your mind, was an overbearing semblance to the internal storm inside you.
“Y/n!” Bodhi called out your name, walking out the door you walked out of moments prior. The bass in his voice stoked the fire that formed in the pit of your stomach, ready to burn you from the inside out. Turning on your heel you faced the 6’3 man, brows already furrowed in glaring daggers towards him, chest still heaving erratically unable to control your breaths.
“You need to breathe.” He didn’t let your behavior deter him. His tone smooth and even, several feet away, not meeting your gaze like if he did he would combust into flames from your glare.
You scoffed, “shouldn’t you be inside with Ariante?” Her name dripped off your tongue with venom.
He opened and closed his full lips, setting his hands on his hips; absolutely dumbfounded. “Y/n…” he said through staggered breath. “I came here with you tonight.” He took a few steps towards you cautiously. “I came up to talk to you at the bar, trying to leave her with her friend.” His focus seemed to be on the wall behind you, and not your own eyes as he still walked towards you. “I followed you out here, leaving her in there.” His words slow, as he stepped right in front of you. “Does it look like I give a fuck about her?” He didn’t let you answer.
“Has everything this past year made it look like I give fuck about anyone else, but you?”
Despite the tug in your heart you felt at his words, pulling you out of your blind rage and jealousy for a split second—it was frustrating how he refused to look you in the eyes.
“You were letting her hang all over you tonight, how can I believe that?!” You held your chest with one arm, the other outstretched to the door.
He gave an aggravated shout, lunging and grabbing your arms. You stiffened at his touch, his hands were just as hot as you felt. He seemed to notice as well, flinching at the realization, but his hold stayed secure on you. He leaned down, his breath warm against the shell of your ear.
“If you watched my every move, you would have noticed I wasn’t interested in her. I was only watching you the whole night.” That Gods forsaken deadly calm tone sent a shiver down your spine despite the heat you felt. “Now lift your arms up.” He ordered, the sentence barely above a whisper.
His usual honeyed brown eyes finally locked with yours, dangerously darkened. A silent gasp leaving your mouth agape, unable to pull away from his dark orbs submitting to his quiet demand, your arms rising up slowly.
His rough calloused skin brushing your arms ignited a solely different fire within you as he slid the sweater off your frame. “Fuck, you’re burning up.” He muttered, throwing the sweater on the cobblestone leaving you in the corseted tank top you had on underneath. Lightning flashed in the skyline, thunder following a moment later, and rain started to pour from the clouds moments later. The droplets are warm from the summertime, but still cooler than both your skin, creating a steam that ghosts around the both of you.
“So are you,” you said breathlessly. “Do you have any idea why?” You two were so close your chests brushed together, every time one of you breathed. You anticipated what he would say next, but Bodhi kept quiet, tugging on his lip, seeming to be fighting a battle with himself. He turned away from you, rubbing a hand over his face, looking up at the rain stricken sky.
“You do know don’t you?” You rasped.
“I just want to preface I wanted to tell you—”
‘Don’t. You. Dare. Tawny. One.’ Cleasaí dangerously seethed through your head.
It had been silent on the other side of the bond all night, you tugged the invisible string to her countless times, but no answer. Now she wanted her presence known? Known to someone that couldn’t hear her nonetheless.
‘She deserves to know what you’ve been hiding.’ Bodhi glowered. You were still watching him, and he hadn’t opened his mouth…and he heard your dragon?
A new deep sophisticated tone entered your mind, ‘Cleasaí the inevitable is going to happen—‘ Cuir?
‘That I’ll find out?’ You stood in that mental art studio you were taught to use as your source for grounding. The door wide open letting in the thoughts and voices that freely flew through your mental guards. That one invisible string that led to the door seemed to have an added two now.
“Shit,” Bodhi hissed.
“How long?” You gritted your teeth, focusing on the man in front of you. He stayed quiet. “How long did you know?” You repeated louder.
He looked at the ground, “since my threshing.”
You tensed, how come he knew, but you had been clueless this whole time?
‘It’s not ideal to have one rider running from the other while their supposed mated dragons aren’t even on speaking terms.’ Cuir explained.
You fought the tears that lined your eyes, ‘he gets to know, while I’m left in the dark?!’
‘That was for Cleasaí to tell you, my rider had no choice to listen to us dragonkind.’ Cuir explained with a steeliness.
‘And I told her I would tell her in due time.’ Cleasaí chuffed in the corners of your mind.
It felt crowded in your brain, two additional voices, on top of your grappling emotions. You inhaled deeply, blinking tears away furiously.
“Y/n,” Bodhi came towards you. “I wanted to tell you.”
“When was I going to be told?” You snapped. “When you graduate?!” A couple tears now silently slip down your cheeks.
You didn’t know where to point the frustration at. Cleasaí should have told you it was her responsibility, but if Bodhi wanted to talk to you so badly that would have been the topic to start with.
“Our luck would be they would stick you in Samara like Xaden!” You shouted.
“When was I supposed to tell you? When you were running the other direction?! Or would you have preferred a note during Battle Brief only for you to go into a volatile meltdown?” He argued.
You laughed harshly, “I would have not—”
“Oh yes you would have.” Bodhi rolled his eyes. “That’s why Xaden warned me not to.”
Your eyes widened, “Xaden knew?”
‘Why wouldn’t the Wingleader know?’ Cleasaí snorted humorlessly.
‘I don’t want to hear it from you.’ You growled shutting the mental shield up from her and hopefully Cuir. You didn’t know how this all worked.
He rubbed the bridge of his nose. “He’s known since before you even crossed the parapet.”
“Does anyone else know?” You crossed your arms.
“Assumedly Violet, but no one else.”
Your eyes narrowed, she seemed to know everything didn’t she?
You grew quiet, mulling over everything as the rain was the only sound that filled the streets. You felt betrayed, not only by the creature that put their faith into you and vice versa, but by the man you had grown to love. Was that why you had felt like your irritation was an out of body experience earlier?
“Why do you think I have a churam dependency?” Bodhi bit the corner of his thumb, looking at you.
“Can you get out of my mind?” You frowned, picking the soggy sweater up off the cobblestone. You sniffled, wiping your face, before proceeding to walk towards Basgiath, wanting to get out of the vicinity of him. To think you could have died without even knowing… what would have happened to the dragons—yet worse—him? You didn’t even want to ponder over the details that entailed that yet.
“Trust me I’m not trying, but your thoughts are so fucking loud.” He muttered, following you.
“Then can you not follow me?” You turned, walking backwards wiping wet hair out of your face. The sting in your eyes is almost blinding from fighting the glaze of tears.
“It’s not safe to walk by yourself this time at night.” He said as if it was obvious.
“I’ll be fine,” you tried to reassure as you slipped the dagger out of your top, you tucked between your breasts when getting ready.
“You’ve been drinking, Y/n. That’s not going to do shit.” He tried to catch up to you, but you were a step ahead, even walking backwards.
“I feel stone cold sober at this moment.” You half lied, quickly turning back around, putting the dagger back where you kept it. You didn’t want him to see how your lip trembled, and you were ready to break. That was the last thing you needed was to have a ‘volatile meltdown’ in front of him. Though that’s what this whole night felt like, a tantrum of a fever dream.
You two came to a fork in the path that led to Basgiath from Chantara. You may have forgotten which path you took earlier in the night. So you hoped as you veered left, you would be going the right way, anything to just get away.
But his hand caught your arm, pulling you around to face him.
“I just got you back, I’m not letting you just be barely out of my reach again.” He seethed, his grip firm, but gentle. His touch was still blistering against your own skin.
“I’m not doing it, Y/n. I’ve already spent years running for you when you just kept running backwards for whatever reason!”
The tears had silently begun to fall again down your cheeks, this time unable to stop. “Do you want the reason, Bodhi?” You could feel yourself start to shake as the words left your mouth. “Because I love you!” You finally admitted, the confession a hushed whisper.
You watched with tears flowing freely as he staggered back a couple steps at what you said. He remained quiet as you continued. “I was never meant to love someone freely. And everyone I loved left—”
Your declaration is cut off by his lips smashing to yours. A primal fiery heat as your lips connected, his hands cupping your jaw, your lips melted with his realizing he was kissing you. The taste of the saltiness from your tears mixed with the essence of alcohol on both your lips was dizzying.
This was everything you could have imagined and more since you were a young woman. Everything you wanted the past five years. You felt his thumbs brush underneath your chin as you relished the feeling as you continued to kiss him with a fervor you never experienced. Your hands sliding up his chest around the back of his neck, gripping on his wet dark curls you’ve always admired. A soft sigh left his lips, and it was a noise you could listen to forever, but of course your thoughts spiraled.
A much more important secret was withheld from you, not only by him, but Cleasaí. A petty love confession that you withheld as a way to protect yourself and what you thought would protect him, when the secret of bonded dragons affected four beings outweighed it all. Whether it was his choice or not.
You pulled away abruptly. “I-I can’t.” You said, feeling your own heart break.
“What do you mean you can’t?” He sputtered, confused.
“Me professing my love doesn’t change any of the circumstances.” You shook your head, letting go of him reluctantly. “If anything it only adds to the risk of this whole situation.”
You needed to think about everything thoroughly, and away from him. If not, you might not think straight. You had to go.
“Y/n,” Bodhi pleaded desperately. He watched you turn and make your way back to the war college. You ignored him, even when your bones itched to turn and run back into his arms. “Do my feelings mean nothing to you?!” He shouted, standing where you left him.
Your steps faltered, and that break you felt in your chest worsened. You turned, with a strained smile on your face through your tears.
“They do, more than you could ever realize.”

Tumblr media
You’re not convinced there’s any way to get used to getting your lights knocked out. 
At this point, your fighting prowess is good enough that you can dodge swings from even heavy handed opponents. Just agile enough to bob and weave. Your reflexes are good too, from years of getting into with cops or otherwise. So getting absolutely dusted in a single, swift motion is not a frequent occurrence. 
That’s why you are sorely caught off guard when it happens to you in the back of an alleyway, tucked into a corner of Osaka—a long ways from home.
You were fucked from the minute you stepped foot off the train; you knew that instinctively. You haven’t been back in years and it’s not like you’re here for leisure. And sure, you took the job knowing there was some possibility you’d run into some old foes but shit. They couldn’t’ve waited till the week was over? 
3 days in and your life as a runaway comes back to bite you in the ass. Worse, they catch in front of the very storefront you were  working up the nerve to visit at the end of the week. If that old man catches you 1. making a ruckus in front of his cherished bakery and 2. fighting like those “worthless punks” that he openly detests, he’s definitely gonna be on your ass.
It’s amidst conflict, you decide to take the beating and wait it out. Hopefully, whatever higher power is looking over you will let you get out without busting your lip. 
But fuck, this last hit is leaving you worse for wear. You blink your eyes open and you’re still surrounded by him and his bunch of goons. What was this dudes name again…? Aka…Aka-something, you think. Without warning, you get another punch, a clean left-hook  - this time to your side. You cough at the sensation. 
Ah, life is so unfair to you. 
He grabs you by the front of your collar, dragging you upwards until you’re nose to nose. This fuckers breath is hot. Something warm slips down your nose, a rivulet of blood over your lips. You grunt. 
“I should’ve beat the shit out of you the first time.” 
You blink slowly as you regain your vision and sense. Despite many transgressions and altercations, your time in Osaka as a fugitive is notable. This bunch of fiends are a somewhat half-assed motorbike gang. It’s an old story. You stole and ruined  not one, not two, but four of their bikes total. In your defense you were a young kid scrounging for change - hotwiring and deconstructing for parts was always  pretty profitable. And stealing flashy bikes was a hell of a lot easier than scratching up your knees in the scrap yard. 
Ah, there was that other thing too. Why you’re pretty sure this guy has held such a grudge against you for god knows how long. Irritable with a bad sense of self-preservation, you give up on behaving well. 
“Yeah? No need to sulk now, right?” You grin, hands practically itching to throw him onto the ground. A familiar sense of adrenaline burns in your stomach. You should just hit him, but you don’t - instead opting to aim where you know it’s gonna piss him off most “How’s your little sister by the way?” 
Red flashes in his eyes, nose puffed like a bull. Despite your self-satisfaction, you close your eyes and pray to god he doesn’t actually kill you. There’s still some ass you have to tap before you die and it’d be a real shame to die only inches away. You cover your face when his fist winds up. Riling him up was probably a bad move.
Before you get your lights punched out forreal, an angel comes to rescue you. 
“Oi, you fuckin’ punks—go take this shit somewhere else or I’m gonna singe every last goddamn hair on your head.”
You smile, almost drunk on the adrenaline. An angel, indeed. A cursing, blonde, abrasive angel. 
“Oh, shit—we gotta get outta here. That dude Dynamight doesn’t fuck around”
Before you know it, said group of miscreants disperses like a swarm of flies. You find yourself stumbling back against a bunch of crates, back hitting them and sliding down, snagging in your work clothes. The leader says something about “not being finished with you yet,” but you don’t catch it with how your ears are ringing in your skull.
You rub your eyes and groan, seeing double. When you open them again, your favorite blonde old man is standing in front of you. Arms crossed over his chest, sporting that signature glare you’re so fond of. 
Your head is throbbing. Fuck it hurts. 
You only manage one sentence before promptly blacking out. 
“Did I die and go to heaven?”
— 
You wake up in a familiar bed. 
A bed you spent a lot of time resting in when you were out at on the streets here, something like four  years ago now. The memories of the time aren’t entirely pleasant - being a homeless runaway was pretty shit. But meeting your life long hero (and getting your rocks off in his bed) are quite fond regardless. You’re surrounded by nice, white linen sheets that you’re pretty sure cost more than you make in a month. He’s not really much of a flashy character despite his career, but he does have an eye for the finer things. 
You haven’t been back here in a while. Since moving to a different prefecture, you haven’t had any good reason to come see him. This week was a good excuse for just that. Didn’t exactly plan on it happening like this, but you can’t really win 'em all. You’d consider being back here a win on your part regardless. 
The fact that you’re here instead of molding in the pouring rain means that he dragged you up there by himself. A fact you try not to put too much stock into, because he’s still a pro even if he’s retired. What makes it hard not to feel giddy about it is the fact you’re all cleaned up. Bandaged wounds and all, he even took off your shoes. Jeez, he’s gonna kill you one of these days acting so cute. 
You turn to lay on your back, reaching your hand to the ceiling and making a fist. Your knuckles are still pretty bruised up but it’s clear he took some time to check over them. You drop your hand down, squeezing a fist over your chest and sighing. You roll over again. 
“Still giving me so many mixed signals.” You say, half in jest, trying not to be too affected by it “Ah, fuck, this is bad. Gonna end up doing something weird just like old times.” 
Before you commit another act of degeneracy in the bed of your long time crush and childhood hero, you sit up with your legs over the edge. He took your pants off too, a pair of boxers hung low on your hips. Your back is fucking killing you. 
You stand to your feet, scratching the back of your neck as you turn to examine yourself in the mirror. You pull your tank up over your side, a bruise the size of a melon developing on you. It goes from just under your chest all the way down to above your waist. You press your finger to it and wince at the sensation of pain, dull but throbbing so deep in your nerves you can’t help but feel it. 
You examine the rest of you, turning to either side. Work tomorrow is gonna fucking blow, but considering you don’t have any broken ribs - you think it’s not the worst it could be. No stitches either, so a win overall. If the rest of the week passed by silently that’d  be perfect. 
You look around the room for your things. They’re in a neat chair in the corner of the room.  Bakugou’s cat is over there too, asleep on your uniform. You can hear something faint from downstairs, the sound of a T.V. playing. You should drop down there since you’re awake  but you’re reluctant. You wonder if he’ll chase you out since you’re up. If he still has as much of a soft spot for you as he used to, it couldn’t hurt to test your luck. 
You open up the bedroom door and shut it quietly before padding down stairs. 
You end up finding him where you’d expect him.  He’s in the kitchen with an apron on, a fitted gray shirt with a piping bag in hand.
 He looks older every time you see him. His hair isn’t all gray yet but the platinum is starting to turn brilliant white. There’s lines in his face that weren’t always there, even with the scars and fine wrinkles in the corners of his eyes. He’s still as jacked as he used to be, but it’s softened up. Mostly it’s his personality, you find, to be mellow. Only someone with patience could take up such a tedious hobby after an entire life out in the field - killing baddies and chasing thugs and whatever other shit hero’s do. 
It’s kind of ridiculous that he’s piping delicate little designs onto some pastries, but unfortunately for you it only adds to his charm. You lean against the wall coming into the kitchen, in the frame. Half-dressed with your lips quirked up in a coy smile. 
“Whatcha makin’ old man?” 
“Don’t break my concentration you noisy brat,” He says straightforwardly “Sit down and shut up.” 
“So cranky,” You muse,  but ultimately comply, sitting at a chair on the kitchen island. Looks like he’s on his last round of whatever he’s making. 
You get by on staring at him. It’s pretty typical for you even now. Sitting here in front of him doesn’t feel as awkward as you expected, which is worth something. When he’s finally finished, he puts the piping bag on the counter and wipes his forehead with the back of his arm. 
“Permission to speak, sarge?” You ask, sarcastically. He frowns at you. 
“Not granted.” 
“Cold as ever huh,” You say, leaning your elbow on the counter - palm on your cheek “Thought distance was supposed to make the heart grow fonder?” 
“That only counts if there’s fondness in the first place.” He says with ease. This time you scoff at him, but he cuts you off before you get a chance to reply “You wake up with any pain?” 
“Worry about yourself, you old bastard,” You say impudently. You see the corners of his lips twitch as he stares at you “‘m fine. Got a nasty bruise on my side but my ribs aren’t broken. Work tomorrow is gonna suck.” 
“That why you’re back here?” 
“For about a week, yeah.” 
“Confidential?” 
You shake your head and lean back. 
“Nah. Bodyguarding some rich dude’s kid. Birthday tomorrow. Spent the first two days being a lousy maid but the pay is good so I can’t complain.” 
“Shit. The party is tomorrow? I have an order for tomorrow.” 
“Guess you’re not senile yet, old man.” 
“Fuck off,” Bakugou says, not bothering to hide to his expression “How old’s the kid?
“A little younger than me I’d guess. 19 or so.” 
“Isn’t this a good opportunity to get laid?” He suggests like he’s purposefully trying to irritate you. He already knows how you feel. Why he insists on pretending is beyond you but it never fucking fails to piss you off. 
You shoot him a glare. 
“Nevermind. You’re definitely senile. Might wanna try some puzzle games to keep your shit in tact before you start peeing in public and buying ten pairs of the same pants.” 
“You’re still just as mouthy as I remember.” 
“Learned from the best.” 
A comfortable silence settles as a weird feeling overtakes you. Fuck, you’re still pining your youth away after all this time. Maybe getting laid would fix some of your issues, but no one is gonna hold a candle to having the real thing. You rub your temple in preemptive apprehension. Bakugou starts working on cleaning up the kitchen, and you resign yourself to thinking about what you’re gonna do. 
It catches you off-guard when he talks to you first. 
“Earlier,” He says, opening up the fridge to rearrange it “Why weren’t you fighting back?” 
You don’t know whether you want to laugh or cry hearing him ask. You don’t feel like softening the blow with your usual shit, so you give it to him straight. 
“It doesn’t suit a tactical genius to play dumb, old man.” 
He stiffens, then sighs. 
“Still hung up on that, huh.” 
Oh now you’re gonna get pissed. 
“Don’t.” You warn, low and indifferent. He sighs, sliding a tray into the fridge and “Don’t piss me off, alright?” 
“Hey. You shitty punk. When are you gonna get it through your thick skull I’m doing this for your fucking sake? Stop—”
“Next time, just leave me in the rain.” You seethe, venom in your voice, making you numb and agitated. He stops, breath hitching “I don’t give a shit if you’re a retired  hero. I’m serious. Leave me out in the alley next time if you’re gonna pull the mentor act again..”
Man this sucks. 
Not like you were expecting some heart warming love story out of a guy like him but still. You didn’t think he wouldn’t budge at all. You can feel yourself getting angry just thinking about it. It might’ve been better not to come. Mentor or not, his whole dismissal never fails to annoy you to your core. You knew that before the week started he might be like this. Maybe if shit went your way - you could’ve had a regular reunion. But now, he just had to see you getting beat up on purpose and he just had to fucking ask about it. 
Seriously, where’s his decorum? Prick. 
“Kid.” 
“Don’t—I needa get outta here. I shouldn’tve—fuck, this blows.”
You stand to your feet before you have a chance to look back. You feel kind of pathetic running away again but it’s still the preferable option to having this fight a second time. It’s something you’re just too sensitive about to deal with head on. Getting rejected twice by the guy you’ve been in love with since you were nineteen is bound to fuck you up abs you don’t have it in you not to drink yourself into a fit. 
So you’re practically running up the stairs, but you can hear him calling behind you. You go into the bedroom to get your things and Bakugou follows you into it predictably, shutting the door.  You turn around to him, annoyed. 
“Get outta my way.” 
“No. Not while you’re all pissy. Gonna get yourself hit by a car.” 
“What’d I just say about cooling it with the mentor act, man?” 
“It’s not a fuckin’—it’s not an act.” He says, with a sigh that almost makes you feel bad, “I haven’t seen you in two years.” 
“Two years is nothing. Old age is making you soft,” You scoff, arms crossed over your chest “But I don’t need your sympathy. My feelings haven’t changed.” 
“Kid.” 
“I’m not a kid anymore, alright? Cleaned my act up, got a job and a license and a place. Haven’t slept in a cell in two years. Been off the streets that whole time just like you told me to do.  The least you could do is take me seriously.” 
“I didn’t want you to do that shit for me. I wanted you to do it for you.” 
“Too bad,” You reply back almost immediately, pinching the bridge of your nose “Save your lecture for the next injured bird you raise up and leave me out of it.” 
“I’m trying to put you on the right path, you ungrateful little jackass. Don’t act like—“
“Spare me the goddamn lecture.” 
There’s a quiet silence befalls the both of you. Shit is going nowhere fast and you both know it, Bakugou as much as you do. Memories of your last argument come back to you almost instantly. 
After you turned eighteen, you were run out of the orphanage you’d spent part of your adolescence at. It’s a pretty regular sob story and you’re quite the sad sap. A dead mom in Mustafu and an absent father. You had a strong quirk, and hell maybe if you grew up different - you could’ve been a hero. 
Shit didn’t  work out that way, so at 11 you were thrown to the wolves. It’s not a fun time to look back on and you figure there’s no use thinking about the past. You did whatever you had to to survive which mostly meant being in and out of orphanages and running away whenever the next worthless schmuck tried to take advantage of you. You always got away by the skin of your teeth, and made money doing whatever you could. If it put food on the table, you’d have probably done it at least once.
It’s something of a cliche, but Dynamight was your idol. You liked that he wasn’t like other heroes. He was crass and hardcore and liked to talk shit. He was cool. You spent a lot of time hanging around T.V. stores watching him through the glass, watching interviews on your first hand-me-down phone. Even though he didn’t really have the tragic backstory, you always thought he was courageous and honest. 
A celebrity crush and idol combined, you stole more of his pin-up magazines than you’re entirely comfortable with. A lot of them you still own, shoved into the back of your closet. 
Once you’d turned 18, your life of petty crime had brought you all the way down to Osaka. It was also the worst year of your life. Social agencies seem to get off on tossing kids into the streets as soon as they can and with a criminal record like yours, there wasn’t a whole lot you could do. 
You spent the first 6 months knee deep in all sorts of shit. That’s when you ran into that biker gang for the first time. You hung around bars and slept with strangers for a place to sleep. A lot of bad shit happened and it wasn’t getting any easier. 
It was a cold, rainy day when you met Dynamight for the first time. The worst day of your life, more accurately. You got mugged and lost your job all in the same few hours and you were pretty sure god himself was spitting at your face. 
But it wasn’t all bad. Cheesy as it sounds, meeting your hero was worth the trouble. 
He was different off camera. That was the first thing you thought when you talked to him. He had a softer way of speaking and he was weirdly perceptive. He didn’t talk much, either - at least not at first. You spent a lot of time in comfortable silence. The first time, you didn’t do much more than share a meal. He asked you about your life. He gave you money for a hotel too. The only thing you could think to do was ask when you could see him again. 
He was 36 at the time. Hadn’t retired yet, either. 
That was the beginning of your long relationship. To this day, you don’t know why he decided to involve himself with you. It’s a mystery you’ve yet to get answers for and maybe you never will. Sure he was a hero, but you’re sure he’s seen a lot worse. Why take pity on you in particular? Whenever you ask him about it, he usually just scoffs. Sometimes he’ll tell you that you reminded him of someone. Who that person could be is lost on you even now.
It was a gradual relationship. You were young and persistent, but he never turned you away either. Sure he’d been a good influence, but stopping a life of crime wasn’t easy. You got arrested for some months after meeting. Bakugou took you in when you were 19 and homeless - let you stay with him. He retired at 37, opening up a bakery in Osaka. The place you’re staying in now is just over it. The same one you spent two years of your life falling in love with the old bastard. 
It was hard not too. You’d admired him for a long time, and he managed to supercede your low expectations. It wasn’t the first time you fell in love but it was definitely the strongest sensation. You tried to ignore it for a while but that didn’t work out for shit either. 
You confessed to him on your 20th birthday. Made a whole big deal with flowers and candles and shit. And again - it’s not like you were expecting romance out of the motherfucker. A flat-out rejection would’ve sufficed. 
But…that wasn’t what you got either. 
The whole reason for your fight wasn’t just because he didn’t have feelings for you. He made it a whole big fucking deal trying to tell you about your feelings. That you needed to get your shit together and grow up and that it was a phase that you’d grow out of. That he “really cares about you, kid” and that he’s just trying to do what was right by you as an adult. 
(“You’ve got no idea what the fuck I’m like either. Been through some tough shit and you latched onto me, alright? So don’t go wastin’ your time.”) 
You don’t really give a fuck about how old he is or about his status. None of it matters to you in the slightest. What was pissing you off all that time was him not taking you seriously after everything you’d been through together. Trying to tell you would fucking grow out of it and that it was a waste. You got into an argument after that, and like you’ve been doing your whole life - you ran away. Back to Shizuoka where you started to get your life together. 
Hit the books and studied your ass off, graduating late from a night school and then picking up a vocational school to fall back on. Some old connections got you a job in security and you bounced from place to place in the meanwhile. You even got your license and bought a beat-up cruiser that you fix-up when you have the chance. 
You grew up so to speak. You came back here trying to prove that. Being dismissed so fucking quickly makes you feel rage beyond reason so you’re trying to step back. Seriously, two fucking years and nothing. Not even a pity “I’m proud of you.” 
“Just admit it,” You sneer, inching closer to him “It’s not about any of that shit, is it?”
He widens his eyes as you stalk towards him.
“The fuck are you—“
“Don’t play stupid. You feel guilty, right? Feel all wound up cause you know it’s not nothing. This isn’t nothing”
This time he goes silent. Fucking bullseye.
“You thought I forgot? How you kissed me all tipsy? Thought I didn’t notice you looking?”
Oh it feels good to let it all out. He shrinks, this time unable to say anything. You both know it’s true. 
“Look—“ He puts hands on your shoulders as you back him into the wall “You’re too fucking young for all this. And about me, you don’t know—”
You lean into him, face inches apart. You already know what he’s gonna tell you, almost word for word. Trying to maintain some innocence you hardly have anything left of. 
“You sure? I heard you through those walls plenty of times. You take dick like a champ.” 
“Shut the hell up. This is for your own good, we can’t do this.”
You can hardly believe he’s still being like this. 
“I used to know you were home. When I brought people over,” You whisper low against his skin. His eyes widen “You heard me too, I’m sure. So, be honest Mr. Dynamight, you think I can’t give you what you want or are you too afraid to find out?”
“You’re such a fucking punk.” He grits out. Still not denying your words. 
“That’s right,” You muse, words heated and heavy “I’m a worthless street punk trying to fuck the old man upstairs ‘cause I don’t know any better.” 
It’s not the first time you’ve kissed Bakugou in your life. The first time was when you came over to his place tipsy. In front of all the other pro-heros you had admired so much. It’s different this time. Not only are you both shockingly sober, there’s an aggression in it that wouldn’t be there before. No matter how begrudging he acts, he’s still kissing you back just as hard as you’d expect him too. His lips are softer than you thought they’d be, arms wrapped around your neck. Fuck he’s still so huge. How much does he work out to still be this jacked?
You can’t even imagine how that’s gonna look when you finally get to fuck him. Shit, just thinking about it sends electricity through your spine. You groan a little into his mouth, your hands tucked on his nape and tugging at the fine hairs. You push your incisors into his lower lip and tug, pulling away just slightly to intake how fucking flushed he is.
 He looks like a pornstar,
You pull away, hand cupping his jaw and forcing his mouth open. You’re gonna lose it if you stare too long. 
“You’re so fucking sexy.” 
“You’re not the first person to tell me that,” He mumbles. You laugh lightly at him. 
“Your cocky attitude is pretty sexy too,” You hum, amused. You kiss him one more time, hands reaching for the thickest part of his waist. He’s built like a trunk, but his reactions are almost girlish. The contrast is making you twitch. 
“Can’t say the same for you.” He spits. Your grin splits your face as you pull away from him, teeth nipping at his jaw. You can feel the scruff of his skin, unshaved as you let your tongue travel over it. 
“Aw, what? You don’t think I’m sexy.” You nudge a knee between his legs feeling the half-hard outline of his cock. You shudder “You sure about that?” 
“What the hell are they feeding brats like you?” 
“Liquor and cigarettes.” 
“Since when do you smoke?” 
“Helps me relax after work,” You whisper against the shell of his ear, teeth tugging at the lobe before “I get pretty stressed out. Sure you know something about that.” 
“Hngh, fuck. Fuck you.” 
“Do you even know how? Not like that thing gets much use, huh?” 
You reach down to cup his cock through his jeans, hard against the palm of your hand. He pushes his hips up slightly, sharpened glare. He pants. 
“You sound, shit, so fucking sure.” 
“I am sure. I’m looking to fuck you, not the other way around. Not sure how that’s gonna work since I don’t got my stuff on me.” 
You’re not sure what you’re expecting him to say. This whole thing is feeling like a fever dream you can’t wake up out of. Maybe he’ll give you a suggestion on what else to do.. But instead of that, a blush crawls onto his face. It leaves you floored. He looks away from you. 
“...Your shits still where you left it.” 
It takes you a second to register what he means. When you do, you can feel your brows hit your fucking hairline. There’s no way he’s saying what you think he is. 
“You’re shitting me.” 
“Shut the fuck up. I thought you’d come to pick it back up but you never did, and I went to go move it into some boxes. I didn’t have any reason to toss it.” 
A thought crosses into your mind. 
“Hey. Old man. Where is it?” 
He stares at you. You grasp onto him firmer, making him gasp. You can feel how heavy his cock is in your hands, rubbing it through the cloth of his sweats. You whisper harsh into his ears. 
“If I open your goddamn drawer right now, tell me, am I gonna find my old strap in it? Clean and getting use? You been fucking yourself with the thing I used to lay dick with?” 
When he doesn’t answer, pure glee ignites in you. He can’t answer, apparently. But his face is a harsh, permanent red now and his cock is painfully hard. You want to rail him into the fucking floor just for that. You wouldn’t make up some shit like that in your wildest dreams, so the fact that he’s not denying it makes your insides feel like they’re melting. You rub yourself against him, feeling how slick and hard your clit is just thinking about it. 
“Go lay down.” 
“Are you telling me what to do?” 
You grab his ass as hard as you can before landing a hit on it that makes him nearly topple over. Even though he’s bigger than you in more ways than one, he reacts like that. His anger only lasts so long before it morphs into want. 
“Of course I am. And you’re gonna listen.” 
“What makes you so sure about that, huh? You think you can satisfy me?” 
“You think you’re gonna intimidate me into backing down? After knowing you fuck your tight little ass to the thought of me? Fat chance.” 
“I didn’t say anything like that.” 
You laugh “You implied it. Now go lay down. Where’s your lube?” 
He frowns at you. 
“In the same drawer.” 
You give him a knowing grin to which he shoves your face away. Ultimately though he listens to you, lying and making himself comfortable in the sheet as you grab whatevers in his little sex drawer. He wasn’t kidding about the strap, the lube seated next to it. You grab both quickly and join him, hovering over him. 
You opt not to talk, slowing your pace to appreciate the view. You think he’s says something. Asks about what you’re doing and why - but you tune the words out as you run your hands over the curves of his body. He’s a wall of fucking muscle, his arms especially with a torso just tight enough for you to grab. The fabric of his shirt doesn’t leave much for imagination, but you’re still overwhelmed as you pull it up over his waist, his chest, his arms. The fabric comes loose and it’s nothing you haven’t seen before. You’ve got plenty of porn mags in your back pocket and even more boudoir shoots from him that you’ve stared at for hours. 
But seeing it in person is completely different. You can see the rise and fall of his chest - the raised skin of a scar and plenty of over scratches and wounds. Fuck, he is so sexy and you are so drunk on lust you almost feel sick. 
“Somethin’ catch your eye?” 
His voice draws you out of the trance you're in, a lazy smirk spread on his face. You laugh. 
“I get why you’re such a show-off,” This time you lean forward to kiss him - a hand wrapped around his throat, spare going to grab his chest. His tits are soft, they look like hard muscle and sinew but the fat is squished in your palms to perfectly for that“Fuck.” 
“You’re acting like a horny teenager.” He says flatly.  
“Been thinking about fucking you that long, so I guess so.” 
“Are you serious?” 
“Why’re you so shocked?” You make work kissing down his neck slowly, down his chest, one tweaking his nipple while your mouth makes work on the other one He swears above you, another wave of heat pulsing in your body “Don’t you hear shit like that all the time?” 
“Shit that feels—I didn’t think you were, hngh—serious.” 
“Obviously not. I still have all your slutty ass photos in my apartment somewhere.” 
He pants. Makes the prettiest fucking sounds for you as you grope and squeeze and touch his body. You bite, hard, into his tits leaving a red mark of teeth that makes him shudder. You need to do it all over again. 
“Haah, fuck. What the fuck?” 
“You’re way sexier in person if that’s worth anything,” You groan, a shudder passing through you “Like way sexier.” 
He looks like he wants to say something to you but the words die in his mouth. You laugh as you peer over him. His reactions are fucking adorable. Face is hot with a flush, watery eyes. Pretty. As much he’s rugged and strong and downright handsome, he is annoyingly fucking pretty. Having him underneath you is making all the power go to your head. Nothing feels more appealing to you right now than the idea of wrecking him completely. 
You kiss down his body until you’re at his waist, taking his pants off unceremoniously. You have half a mind to rip them but you’re sure they’re expensive. He lifts his legs for you anyways, leaving a tight pair of boxers that leave nothing for the imagination at all. 
“What the fuck,” You mumble, getting face to face with it. You pull the boxers off slowly, kissing his hip as you do. His cock pops out slowly as you pull it down. What an asshole. His dick is impossibly big too. A tuft of well trimmed blonde hairs sit neat at the base and the tip is a harsh red. There’s a little drop of pre-cum dribbling down the shaft that makes your brain feel fuzzy. It’s veiny too, tight balls sitting net at the base. 
Another shiver wracks through you, as you reach your hand out to touch it tentatively. He groans sharply. You stick your tongue out, licking up from base to tip. He tastes of salt and skin, but it isn’t bad. You let your tongue lick at the slit, elated looking at him squirm underneath you. 
“Nice dick.” You say back plainly. He snorts. 
“Fuck off.” 
‘’m serious,” You add, letting your eyes lid to look more serious “I don’t blow just anyone.” 
You open your mouth wide, pulling lips over teeth as you ease the tip slowly. It’s hot. Hard as steel and intrusive against your tongue, you can feel it throb. Pulsing relentlessly, you lower yourself onto it slowly - taking as much in as you can. It’s difficult and messy, tongue out to cover as much as you can. You suction your mouth slowly, hollowing your cheeks. There’s something that feels so good about having him in your mouth, something even better about watching the faces of pleasure he makes above you. 
You hum in appreciation and the vibrations prove to be too much as he nearly thrusts his dick into your throat. You brace yourself for it happening again - setting an even pace. He looks good like that, drowned in pleasure and unsure of what to do with himself. You wonder if it’s been a while since he’s acting so fucking cute about it. You assume as much. 
What he said before, you wonder if he was picturing it. If he felt guilty about it. The idea of him jerking off in shame over the thought of his dick in your mouth makes your spine tingle. You cup his balls in your hand, squeezing gently as you get into a steady rhythm. You feel him above you trying to hold it all in, the muscles in his abdomen tightening each time you manage to get down further. It’s hard to breathe, the back of your throat feels narrow. Your skin is on fire. 
“Fuck, fuck—where’d you learn how to—fuck!” 
You feel him getting ready to cum, so you pull off swiftly. A delicious, needy whine comes out of his throat that leaves you mesmerized. 
“What the hell?” He mumbles, heaving. You laugh. 
“Hey,” You hum, lifting his hips until you can see his hole - pink and twitching “Every had someone eat your ass?” 
“Are you offering?” 
“Yeah.” You say back, kissing the insides of his thighs, gripping the muscle “I wanna know if it feels good for you.” 
For whatever reason, this statement in particular makes his skin tinge pink. You hold back a laugh internally. 
“So fucking weird.” 
“Is that a no?” 
“Do whatever you want.” 
You chuckle at that. You sink your teeth into him again, this time working on the build up. His muscles give tension to your incessant biting, hard bone against muscle as you mark up his thick thighs. His ass is nice like you’d expect, tight and muscular. You work your way towards his hole slowly, thumb circling the tight ring of muscle first to gauge his reaction. He shudders, making you hold back a laugh.
“Kinda sensitive,” You say amused. You can feel him glaring without having to look “You can’t cum without it now, right?” 
You’re mostly saying it in jest but the prolonged silence leaves you at a loss for words. Your eyes snap up at him, watching him huff and puff in embarrassment. Heat rolls through your body. 
“It’s not like I fucking can’t ever, alright?” 
“You’re too cute for your own good.” 
“Don’t fucking call me cute you shitty little brat.” 
“But you’re acting kinda adorable, old man,” You say slyly. You stick your tongue out, licking a long stripe against him. He shakes “Blushing up a fucking storm. Been a while?” 
“Not really.” 
“Oh, so it’s just ‘cause it’s me then?” 
He looks like a fucking cherry. You laugh. 
“To think you were so against it. How’d you hide your expressions that long? Did it help you to masturbate to the thought of me fucking you?” 
“Would you shut up?” 
“I don’t feel like it.” 
Before he can scold you any more, you let your tongue slip against the exposed rim. The reaction is tentative at first, slow licks trying to gauge if this is something he’s even into. You do it again and again, burying yourself deep. He makes a noise that you recognize to be a muffled moan. You groan in appreciation, repeating the action - letting yourself dip into the tightness of it. You can feel the muscles of his body go taut as you grip him - hands over the tops of his thighs. The action is more shameless the longer you let yourself indulge.
You’ll have to fuck him open anyways before you actually get on top. You think doing this much will make everything easier. Mostly you’re doing it because you like seeing him embarrassed. The gap in appearance vs expression never gets old. Seeing like this repeatedly proves to be novel and fuck knows if he’s gonna let you do it again any time soon. You’re more than determined to squeeze out every last ounce of his pride. 
You want to see everything. 
And frankly, pleasuring him like this is driving you all kinds of crazy. Not like you’ve ever been a selfish lover. Always aiming to please or whatever. But he’s got such a raw fucking sex appeal looking the way he does it’s making you drip. You’re pretty damn sure you’ve soaked through everything you have on and you’re not sure how much longer you’re gonna make it without touching yourself. 
It’s all material you’re committing to memory, either way. If anyone saw him like this, you’re pretty sure they’d fall head over heels just like you. It’s hard not to give him everything he’s ever wanted Not to want to fuck him within an inch of his life, just to see his big muscular frame curl in on itself. He’d look so good all messed up, all knotted with pleasure. 
You can feel it again this time, another wave of desire that makes his cock twitch. You wrap your finger around the shaft, holding it around his balls so he doesn’t cum without asking you. He lets out a noise of disapproval that you ignore, pulling your mouth away. Pre-cum dribbles out of tip. You use your finger to swipe it up and lick it. 
He looks scandalized. 
“Not bad. You eat clean huh.” 
“You’re going to kill me someday.” 
“You’re too young and too healthy to die.” 
He makes a face of disapproval at you. You toss him the lube before grabbing the strap. 
“Think you can work yourself open for me tough guy? Normally, I’d do it myself. Edge you out nice and slow, get you all soft. But I’m dying to fuck you already and I wanna make you cum on my cock.”
He looks at you exasperated. 
“Where’d you learn to talk like that?” 
“Casual sex and porn mags. You don’t like it?” 
“It makes you sound your age.” 
“Want me a little more suave? Tell you that I’m gonna make love to you?” 
He snorts. You take off your boxers and sit up on your knees as Bakugou opens the lube in his hands. You watch him idly, mostly focusing on wiggling yourself in the harness and making sure it’s comfortable enough to fuck in. 
He takes a deep breath, and you watch him reach between his legs. How it’s difficult since he’s so muscular. You almost want to help him, but instead you get between his legs again. Stood on your knees with a heavy bit of silicone weighing you down. You connect the tip to his, watching him push a finger in slowly. 
“Not if you say it like that.” 
“Having trouble there?” 
“You piece of shit.” 
“A worthless punk or something. C’mon, just say it. Ask me to finger your ass so I can fuck you. Or you want me to say something more delicate?” 
“Fuck, c’mon just, help me already.” 
“What’s the magic word?” 
“....Please, you worthless asshole.” 
You grin, grabbing the lube from the bed and squeezing it into your fingers. You laugh, leaning over him. 
“Got some manners left in you after everything, huh?”
You pull him down towards him by the waist, pulling his legs up. You kiss the inside of his knees, nudging his legs apart as you position your hands, warming the lube between your fingers. He’s surprised by your strength, but you don’t do anything but grin. 
“Keep your legs up for me, yeah?”
He scoffs but doesn’t go against your will. He looks good waiting for you like that, so you don’t take too much time trying to split him open. His hands are thicker than yours, so your first finger slides in like it’s nothing. He’s soft and hot on the inside, and the way he accommodates you lets you know this isn’t the first time he’s done this.
It doesn’t irritate you as much as you think it should. Maybe you’re a little screwed up to think it’s sexy but the idea of him getting fucked at any point is turn on. Once you’re down to the knuckle and you can pump in and out of him easily, you use a second finger to stretch him further. There’s more resistance so you slow, feeling up against his walls for the place you know it’ll feel good. 
You know you find it because his whole body tightens up in front of you. His eyes shoot open and he’s all breathy and fucked out. You relish in it. 
“Right there?” 
He must be feeling good with how little he’s combating you. 
“Y-yeah.” 
You lean forward to plant a kiss on him again but this time it’s tender. He must feel really good because he wraps his arms around your neck to keep you there. You moan in surprise and when you pull back he looks hazed out of his mind.
“Didn’t know you could make a face like that.” You say, amused. He frowns at you. 
“I’m not happy about it either.” 
A laugh falls out of you and you catch the faintest whisper of a smile on his lips that has you kissing the corners of his mouth. He catches himself before he leans into it too easily, but you notice before he can shy away. 
“Looks like I’m making your heart flutter. Forget the ethics for a little and let me.” 
“I should toss you out of a fucking window.” 
“You’re not gonna though.” 
This he doesn’t reply to. You slip a third finger while he’s distracted and he gasps. This time he’s almost stretched completely. You give him a minute to breathe, swallowing up the little sounds he makes with a hearty grin. It’s so fucking good just doing this. Incredible. Way better than you could’ve ever imagined. 
“I’m gonna fuck the shit out of you,” You say, bemused. He’s delirious enough to laugh. 
“The stamina of youths scares the hell outta me.” 
“I don’t wanna hear it from a retired pro.” 
This time he grins. You find yourself pleased with the development. 
He’s stretched now, and restless. You pull your hand away and rub the remaining slick onto the tip of your cock, giving him a look. 
“Do you know how you want me?” 
“It’s your fantasy fuck,” He says, semi-sarcastically “Do whatever you want.” 
You laugh, tapping his ass lightly. 
“Turn over and stick your ass up a little.” 
“Don’t wanna see my face?” 
“Wanna see how you swallow my cock up like it’s nothing, more like.” 
He curses under his breath. You feel accomplished. He turns over just like you’ve asked him too and fuck the sight of him is way too much. You can’t get over it. He’s big and strong and trembling with desire and it’s driving your sex-drive as high as it can possibly go. You move so your knees are on either side of his thighs. Leaning forward, you lick up from the small of his spine all the way up his shoulder, before sinking your teeth in the junction in between. 
He groans underneath you, and your hands make themself present around his hips. Most gorgeous thing you’ve ever seen in your life. The fucking arch and the scars and the ruggedness of all of it. 
“You’re damn gorgeous.” You say, with utter and sincere appreciation “It’s driving me fucking crazy.” 
“Save your smooth talk.” 
“I’m bein’ serious,” You say, pulling his ass apart with your palms “Like. Woah.” 
He snorts “Real poetic.” 
“I barely graduated school, asshat.” 
In the midst of your bantering, you let the tip of your cock slip into him slowly. It steals the words of reply out of his mouth in an instant. You can feel him melt underneath you. At the intrusion, at the feeling. At every single sensation. You feel the phantom of it in your spine. Like there’s fireworks in all your nerve-endings, just watching how his ass looks around it. Just the tip with no movement, no adjusting. 
He’s silent, shuddering - holding onto a pillow. A bead of sweat rolls down his spine. He has little dimples in his back. You groan. 
“Shit. Look at you.” 
The praise seems to make him keen. He’s always been one to like the attention. You roll your hips, fucking another inch into him agonizingly slow. He moans like he’s deflating, breathing ragged and voice raw. You rock back and forth until there’s no longer anything to resist, then push in and in and in. 
Once you bottom out with his ass against your pelvis and your hips on the back of his thighs, you lean forward and press your weight on top of him. You think he’s expecting something else, because he seems surprised. But you let yourself weigh upon him, then with a heavy grunt - cup his jaw and tilt his head to kiss him. 
“You like that?” 
“Shut up.” 
“C’mon. Be honest. You look like you like it. Ears turning so red.” 
He groans. 
“In your fucking dreams.” 
“Still not gonna budge huh?” You say. anchoring yourself at his sides with a deep sigh “So stubborn.” 
When you feel stable enough to move, you don’t hesitate to fuck him with all of the expertise you have. You give it to him in just the right way, measure up to where he needs you but don’t give in quite enough. It’s a strenuous affair but you keep it at. A steady pace that’s hard and deep but not good enough to make him cum. Something to leave him on the edge, you fuck him just like that. The sound of skin hitting skin and short, broken moans echo in the room. 
You focus on taking him like that, making sure each and every thrust is precise and calculated until he gets where you want him to be. You can practically feel when it’s starting to really get to him. When he can no longer hold himself up, so resigns to smushing his face against the pillow and going limp. You lean up, moving so you can pull his hips back with you - hovering off the bed on his knees instead of laying on his stomach. 
This time you reach deeper. His whining gets louder, more in tune with everything. You laugh as you reach around him, hands gripping at the base of his cock. It takes patience to unravel him like this, matching your hands to your movements until everything is in a slow, steady synchronization. Fast but not fast enough. Hard, but not hard enough. Close but not close enough. 
He lets out a heady groan that reverberates in his chest, opening his mouth finally. 
“C-c’mon. Just. C’mon.” 
“Aw what?” You say, rolling your hips up against him, where you know he wants you most “What is it, hm? Did you want something?” 
“Fuck. Just. Fuck me already.” 
“I am fucking you, though?” 
“You know what I mean!” 
“Oh, you want me to fuck you harder? Make you cum? I thought you didn’t like it.” 
He groans, dropping against the pillows again. 
“I didn’t say that. C’mon just. Please.” 
His voice is hoarse when he asks. You laugh against his shoulders, listening to his requests. Giving it to him how he needs it. Harder and a little deeper, you can feel it now. How you knock into the place inside him that leaves him trembling and shaking. You can read his cues now, when he starts getting close. But of course it’s not gonna be that easy. 
You keep the pace stand, putting your hand on the tip of his cock. You rub your thumb over the slit and hold it there. He sucks in a breath, whining a little. 
“Wanna cum so bad?” You offer, mouth twisted in a feral grin “Tell me you love me.” 
This knocks the wind out of him. 
“What?” 
“Say you love me with all your heart and I’ll let you cum.” 
“You’ve got to be fucking with me.” 
You fuck into him hard right where he needs you. He moans. 
“Nah. My fantasy fuck, remember? Right now, we’re playing love birds.’ Like’ works too, I guess. If you’re too scared,” You half-way mock, starting a pace now that borders cruel “Now say it nice and sweet and I’ll let you cum.” 
“You’re such a—agh, fuck,” He shudders against the bedsheets, repeating himself as you pound him. It’s easy to piston your hips. He’s so sensitive to begin with that it doesn’t take much “You’re insane.” 
“C’mon, old man. Confess your feelings to me like we’re sweethearts.” 
“In your dr—oh, shit.” 
“What was’at? Did you wanna say something?” 
You can practically feel him turn it over in his head. You’re mostly doing it to mess with him. Punishment for all of his beating around the bush and bullshitting. Getting to fuck him has been more than enough. 
So you’re not expecting him to stop you. To turn over flat on his back and lay with his legs spread and wrap his arms around your waist and stare at you through hazy, flushed eyes. This time you’re really looking at him. At the lines on his face and the scruff and an expression torn with time and desire and lust. Your heart nearly falls out of your fucking ass when he wraps his arms around your neck, palming your nape and pushing your foreheads together. 
When you’re nose to nose, he looks very serious all of a sudden. You swallow something in your throat, unsure of what else to do. 
“Gonna say this one fucking time, only. So listen up cause I’m not gonna repeat myself.” 
He’s got to be fucking with you. 
“Love you..I love you or whatever.  But that doesn’t mean—” 
Before he can finish his sentence, you put your hands up under his knees and fuck him for all you’ve got. Half-way as revenge for the shitty confession and half-way because if you think too long about what he’s saying you’re pretty sure you’re going to collapse. 
He sounds good under you, as you fist his cock and laugh in absolute fucking delight. You stare at him hard. At his fucked out expression. You’re gonna cuss him out as soon as this shit is over, you swear. What an asshole. 
“O-oh, oh fuck, I’m gonna, g-gonna cum.” 
You goad him cause you aren’t sure what else you should do at this point. 
“Yeah? Gonna cum on my cock? Show it to me. Let me see what you look like.” 
The words are enough to push him over the edge. He gets unraveled right before your eyes, his whole body pulled like a bow before losing all the tension. You can feel his cock twitching hotly in your palms. Thick strings of white covering your fingers as you fuck him through it. He sounds so perfect like that, so fucking good for you. You can feel your whole body ready to give out just watching. 
When Bakugou finally finishes, he releases you from his grip. You pull out only seconds after, staring at his flushed state in wide-eyed disbelief. 
“Were you serious?” You ask, because it’s the only thing you can think to ask. He sighs, tired. 
“Yeah.” 
Where the hell is this dudes class? 
“Fuck.” 
He laughs, laid down before poking his head back up to stare at you. 
“You didn’t cum yet.” It’s more of a statement than a question. You shake your head. 
“Not yet. I can take care of it.” 
He clicks his teeth.
“No way. Come ‘ere.” 
You undo the harness of your strap before crawling over to where he’s laid. You end up standing on your knees. He props himself up on his elbows, and you look down at him absolutely mesmerized. He crinkles his nose at you. 
“That fucking lovesick look on your face is gross.” 
“Been like this for four years.” 
He flushes. 
You stand in front of him, bare on your knees. He reaches forward, brushing the hair over the hood of your clit gently.
“You’re so wet.” He murmurs. You laugh. 
“Yeah, no shit.” You say, too tired to do much arguing “Lemme borrow your mouth,” 
He snorts “Got it.” 
You fist your hands into his hair and tug, bringing his open mouth to your clit with a sigh. Your cunts sort from being pushed into and neglected. Even the barest brush of his mouth is making you shiver. Bakugou must know a little something about this, because he latches onto you without thinking twice. The sudden added pressure has heat building your stomach at the speed of light. You don’t think you’ve ever felt so on edge in such a short period of time. 
Plus looking down at him while you hump against his face is enthralling. 
“You’d make a cute little wife, old man,” You say thoughtfully, dull pleasure aching as you tuf his hair at the root “You can cook, clean, bake and you know how to use your mouth fucking perfectly.” 
He gives you a look of exasperation, but the warmth down his neck tells you he likes it. You laugh, throwing your head back. The visible sight of arousal flowing down his chin and making his face messy is making you more horny than you know what to do with. You don’t have the energy to cum more than once but you’re sure when you wake you you’re gonna be horny all over again. 
You try not to think too hard about it as you feel the knot in your stomach grow tighter before unraveling all at once. Your insides are hotter than lava, the entire lower half convulsing as the strength in your thighs and legs gets lost gradually. Bakugou sucks until you’re nearly overstimulated, and you have to pull him away before it really gets to be too much for you. 
“You taste good.” He says thoughtfully. You laugh. 
“Got plenty more if you want it.” 
“We should clean up.” 
“You’re not kicking me out?” 
“I’m not a villain, damn it.” 
“You feel like one for that loser ass confession, but I’ll let it slide. I need a fucking nap though. Getting my ass kicked and having incredible sex in the same day is exhausting.” 
He laughs as you lay down besides him, sitting up. Even in your half exhausted state, you catch the feeling of his lips on your forehead. 
“Get some rest you brat.” 
__ 
You wake up in a familiar bed. 
If the sore feeling of laying pipe wasn’t in your hips, you’re pretty damn sure you just woke up out of a dream. What the fuck just happened to you? Your back and body is sore, but you’re clean like you’ve been wiped down. You’re stark naked though. 
The idea that he could give you a wipe but not dress you makes you laugh. When you sit up, all of your clothes are sitting still on a chair. There’s some new clothes on top of them though, his clothes. You stand to your feet, your back cracking as loud as possible as you examine the wounds. You have some hickies now (when the hell did he leave those) and when you turn there’s some scratches on your back. You feel self-satisfaction as you get dressed. You should hit the showers when you feel less lethargic. 
When you’ve reconciled with the fact you didn’t just conjure up what happened a few hours ago, you trek back into the living room. You find Bakugou where you expect him, bent over the stove making dinner. You lean on the frame of the door with a grin before walking over to him. 
You don’t hesitate in sliding your hands on his waist under his tank top. Better, he doesn’t react like you’ve shot him dead. A laugh blooms in your chest. 
“Morning grandpa.” 
“You fucking—if you don’t sit down.” 
You snort, but sit yourself down at the counter like you did a few hours ago. 
“Whatcha making for dinner.” 
“Grilled fish and rice. There’s sides.” 
“Sounds healthy.” 
His ears turn red. 
‘“You have work tomorrow but you need to recover.” 
You couldn’t smile more if you fucking tried. 
“We gonna talk about what just happened,” You ask, pouring yourself a glass of water as you sit down. You take a long sip “Or are you gonna pretend to keep washing rice?” 
He sighs, putting down the dry rice and the cup to measure. He almost looks furious, but he’s too cute for it to mean anything to you. You grin. 
“Hey. Fucking. Look. Alright. You’re way too fucking young. I’m old enough to be your father a-and you only just barely got your life together, so yes I told you whatever I told you. But no fucking funny business until you’re at least 25 and your brain is developed more than a peanut.” 
You nod.. 
“Anyone ever tell you you’re kinda a coward old man?” You say thoughtfully. He looks pissed again but it’s too funny for you to care “What’s funny business? Sex? Cause if it is, I’ve got bad news.” 
“We just. We have to be careful.” 
“So I can kiss, hug, fuck you in private but keep it outta the press?” 
He stares at you, scratching his neck. “Yeah. Basically.” 
You give him a thumbs up, grabbing a snack off the tray on his table. Chips, the fancy kind. They’re good. 
“Got it. Can I stay over? I don’t feel like driving down to my hotel this late.” 
“....You’re not pissed?” 
You laugh. 
“Are you kidding? I wasn’t mad the first time cause you rejected me, I was mad cause you were acting all fucking ethical and holier-than-thou. I figured it was gonna be something like that anyway. And I’m not much of a romantic, so dates and shit are whatever to me,” 
“Forreal?” 
“Yeah. Having sex and staying over to hang out for a while is cool. It was your fat head worrying about it, not mine. Did Mr. Deku managed to talk you out of your crisis while I was asleep?” 
He gives you a look. Bullseye again. 
“You two keep in touch?” 
“He’s a good dude and he buys me a meal when I’m short on change. Jealous?” 
He turns away from you before answering. His ears are burning. You feel your heart squeeze. 
What shit taste you’ve got being head over heels for this old bastard, you wonder. 
“Just shut up and eat your chips.” 
“Uh-huh. Whatever you say.”

oooooooobhhhh...... would it be alright if you talked abt ur ocs......... if it's not a bother.......
stands here like some sort of beast . this took me two days. im so sorry. inhales
i can absolutely talk abt my ocs yeah :D never ever a bother!!
Tumblr media
this is rose and wolfe! theyre two of my lobcorp ocs whom i love very dearly :] they (and the rest of their group) have their own lil story going on, but i say that very loosely bc im just having fun honestly ^_^ and they sure do love making decisions that make that Rather Difficult For Me. but alas, anyhow,
this is inevitably going to get Pretty Fucking Long! (post-post edit. ~35 paragraphs.) so if youre prepared for that. 👍 yippy!! anyway hope you like fucked up little lesbians bc here we go
im probably going to be retreading ground here a bit bc im gonna try and take it from the top, but also because i dont remember what ive said and what i havent so ill just say whatever i remember ^_^
the basic gist of th storyline is that its kind of a pseudo-murdermystery but instead of dying u get turned into some sort of beastie ! ^_^ aka 'nobody knows what the distortion phenomenon is yet and are kinda too busy freaking out about it to notice headquarters exploded last week'. dont worry about that.
slaps notes on the table. this is gonna be really messy and maybe kinda incomprehensible but its ok bc this is just how its going to be. hope this helps.
OK LISTEN. they started out as one thing and then slowly kinda turned into something else and theyve been haunting me for months but they make talking about them Literally Impossible because of how much they just. fucking cling to each other, narratively. its impossible. they make everything so fucking difficult.
wolfe is some offshoot of a take on those Edgy Playground Wolf Ocs that you see a lot in middle school-- or well, thats the root of it. she was always going to be played fully seriously, but everyone was kinda written more silly-like towards the beginning anyhow. yknow, one of those 'orphan lab experiment who pretty much had to take care of themself and really hates people, with Cool Mysterious Powers theyre really conflicted about' type characters. and honestly a lot of that still sticks, really.
she presents herself in a kind of over-the-top way to try and get people to take her seriously and leave her alone, but honestly its just kind of . offputting.. in a way, shes kind of a stand-in for what its like to be a teenager (neurodivergence notwithstanding). sometimes the only thing you can do to get people to listen to you is to make a scene and yell really loud! and everyone will always discredit it as just something that happens while growing up, being "disobedient" because you want attention or want to be rebellious and contrary, but everything you feel IS real and it DOES hurt and nobody BELIEVES you so all you can do is yell LOUDER. its all theyll respond to. (and all it does is make people double down on what they think of you.)
wolfe is a character that is honestly kind of genuinely a bit extra, a little bit embarrassing, but very genuine. a lot of her life was spent not being able to decide what happened to her physically; just kinda pulled and prodded around whether she liked it or not; (again, the whole orphan lab experiment thing was never a lie.) and thrashing around is really all she can do about it. be inconvenient, irritating, hard to deal with; any small victory, any little foothold would do. unfortunately, most of what that's ever done is make things harder for herself. (she hates being expected to be something convenient to others, yet in her attempts to cast it away, forms her worldview to the dichotomy they set up around her. curious !)
so you have this fucked up lil thing and drop her into an lcorp facility. great superb fantastic. n then you give her some ego gear and it messes her up Big Time because guess what, her body is all sorts of fucked up and is Not reacting well with this whole thing, causing it to quite literally Stick and all those 'mild' side effects are now 'major' side effects and everyones Fussing over you again because youre an Anomaly and you Dont get any rest and youre still getting used to a body and mind that isnt Quite what it was before and you Cant leave since they need to figure out whats going on here and Oh God Fucking Damn It Its Again.
so its pretty fair that shes being Like That about the whole thing all things considered.
at this point shes just trying to make it through day by day without someone prodding her about something or another, just stop Staring at her already, fuck off. just one foot in front of the other and try not to think about it too hard. thumbsup 👍 more often than not she works alone; not just because of her own decisions, but also did you know cobalt scar gets a boost on low hp for the exchange of activating friendly fire? pretty crazy. shes kinda reckless and bound to get herself hurt anyway, so it doesnt really Change anything to just kinda.. send her out there without backup. not like she works well with others anyway, right? itd be pretty dangerous to pair her up with someone n all. yknow.
it kinda sucks, yknow? at this point shes so fucking tired of The Everything that honestly she just wants to get in and get out as quickly as possible without having to deal with any nonsense. shes still really pissed off about the entire Situation, still trying to keep any small bit of autonomy she gets to have, but like. well. sometimes it really is easier to just Do Your Job And Leave. finish your tasks and not think about it and not bother with anyone and fuck off until you have to do it again. thats how it always wouldve been anyway, right? easy. annoying. so, so annoying. god she fucking hates it here.
so anyway, rose. she sucks. she doesnt, but i have to say it every time i talk about her Or Else. shes the reason i have such a hard time talking about The Everything. and also why i had to rewrite this and take Two Days getting to it. she is just. So Much. shes an idiot. shes too smart for her own good. she would fit right in as a YA novel protagonist. this is all stalling on trying to explain what the hell is wrong with her.
honestly on a surface level shes pretty chill all things considered. mostly stays in her lane, gets along with people pretty easily, just kinda goes here, pretty good at small talk. she loves listening to people. she Loves listening to people. the problem. she isnt lying, per se, about her entire Presentation and general manner of being, but she isnt really honest either. shes disingenuous. kind of.
rose as a character is Very aware of how people act, and why they choose what they do in what situations. as such, she has gotten very good at Acting A Part rather than actually Living It. she loves listening to people because she wants to know who they are. not in a "i want to get to know my coworkers ^_^" type of way but in a "writing down all your character traits and quirks to record your habits" type of way. a weird sort of genre-awareness. she is very Very easily able to track exactly what type of person someone is and adjust the way she acts around them to... any sort of effect she wants to, honestly. mostly its just quelling dumb spats and getting people to stop being stupid like people tend to do, but every so often she isnt exactly averse to just kinda... messing with people. only a little! but she Could, if she Wanted to. which she doesnt. because shes nice.
rose sees interpersonal interaction as a complex 'game'. not by that name, but by that function. everyone always Expects something, in engaging with another, and all it really is at its core is getting what you want without giving too much ground. to figure out who the Other is without them figuring out who You are. its a competition. to understand what another person Is is what gives you the advantage. to know is to win, to be known is to lose. keep your cards as close to your chest as you can, and they cant control you. easy. its something everyone Does, but only a few acknowledge. she was just good enough to learn.
but like, admittedly, shes very chill. shes literally nice? like yeah all that but she is literally nice. shes fine. shes like... fine? shes all right. like Yeah it sounds bad when you put it like that but she is literally nice.
rose plays a lot with the idea of Symbol. shes a fully realized person, yeah, but she was never Expected to be. she exists mostly as a formality, and she knows thats all that was really expected of her. she was there to Fulfill An Ideal and little else; so she reaches for what she can when she can. be Sweet and Simple and Pretty-- that's all. and she isnt, she knows this, but it sure does make things simple when thats all people know of you. (impossible for people to dig for information people dont think exists.)
a flower in a broken vase unsure if its defined by the petals or the holes. shes someone intrinsically frustrated by the rules that define her, but is unable to comprehend a self without it. clinging to it because its the sole point of control she feels she can Have over things, but wishing to cast it aside to self realize and prove that shes worth the time of day to acknowledge. (she doesnt care what her caretakers thought of her, but still she defines her actions based on their idea of her. curious !)
so you have these two in the general vicinity of one another right.
rose initially interacts with wolfe as almost a game. a test, even. just to see if she could get anything out of the weird one that sulks in a corner by themself, refusing to interact with anyone. shes just curious, yknow? and wolfe, obviously, takes this about as well as you think she would. dont you have better things to do?? stop asking about my fucking hobbies. ..rose could always count on her for a reaction.
wolfe was very, Very resistant to playing along much at all. she thought that giving just simple brush-off responses would get her to get the hint that it wasnt worth bothering, but then rose would come back with more questions building off of whatever they'd talked about, just... idly talking at her. a frequent annoyance turning into just. consistent background noise. yeah this might as well be happening. but even still, the amount of things that rose remembered and considered and genuinely seemed to listen to kind of caught her off guard. it was... weird. it was really really weird.
it wasnt really all that hard to read what wolfe was feeling at any given moment. it was kind of funny, honestly, especially with how she tended to present herself. (honestly, how did everyone else just Miss all of this?) but after some time, rose was surprised to find that she started to just... speak to her frankly. it was stark, only every so often, almost as if she didnt realize the shift in her own tone. its around then that rose started piecing things together herself and... oh. ohh. (how did everyone just miss all of this?)
Bad News Motherfuckers! Its Fucking Over For Both Of You! wolfe finds someone who is genuinely willing to listen to her on the sole drive of simply Understanding Her, rather than wanting something in exchange, wanting something From her; and rose. god. she finds a reflection of exactly what she wishes she couldve been, things she couldve done, were she not shaped into what she Is. an understanding of something she'd never acknowledged, never knew was there, but was there with her the entire time. someone with a clear understanding of what they are, willing to fight tooth and nail to keep it, regardless of what anyone or anything else tries to do with them. things that the narrative constantly tries to take from them; things that rose wants so desperately to let wolfe keep.
so yknow, girl things. THIS is where things get really annoying.
rose seemed to enjoy messing with wolfe just for fun, but honestly shes just kinda taken by her honesty. she doesnt ever seem to have any ulterior motives when shes around her, she just… is. and does. because she wants to. rose honestly isnt really sure how to handle someone who isnt just… mildly bluffing at all times, especially about connection. that level of vulnerability is scary to her. so she teases her. she expects her being flustered-- and she is-- but still, she finds herself caught off guard by wolfe's earnestness.
even so, rose catches herself being far more open than she intends to be-- accidentally, at first, against her better judgement, but then tentatively, almost as if to test the waters. just how much could she show of herself and still uphold that trust? how many red flags can she put up before wolfe notices? no, that was unfair. before it becomes unforgivable. before it recontextualizes her. she cares, yes, genuinely and deeply so. (but what does that mean, coming from her?) she wants wolfe to be safe. (im asking you to leave.)
wolfe and rose both trust each other to a degree that they dont trust many others. its the passive understanding that theyre very much alike, and the even more silent knowledge that they want better for each other; in a roundabout way of knowing that they themselves deserved better, no matter how much they insist otherwise.
theyre very genuine with each other in a way that kind of surprises themselves. neither of them quite know what theyre doing, nor do they want to put a name to something so fleeting, but… its there.
wolfe desperately wants to be closer to rose, but hates that she desires that vulnerability. (it was always rather dangerous, showing your hand like that.) its an annoying fondness, constantly prickling at the back of her head any time rose is even remotely relevant. even when she isnt. shes kind of haunted. shes very defensive of her in a way she honestly doesnt realize until someone points it out. it just comes naturally to her. (whats the difference between a guard dog and an attack dog again..? (is she really ready to deal with the implications of this? is this not just having another will enacted on you? how does she really feel about that?))
rose, meanwhile, is… actually also conflicted. she likes wolfe. this is obvious. it wasnt intended, and she can roll with it, but it's… complicated. she handles it a lot more analytically. she notices when wolfe takes a step forward, and matches it in turn. equivalent exchange, and all. show that youve noticed, that you care, that youre paying attention. (i think she may be afraid. despite her presentation, she's afraid.)
she acknowledges the feeling of desire in this bond-- she wants wolfe to be able to live outside of others' influence. desperately. (if she cant, then…) she refuses to acknowledge what this says of Herself, though. but most importantly, she knows how easy it would be to simply take the role of someone who controls her. (isnt that just what she's always done to others?) she hates the idea of becoming that. (it would be so easy.) goes out of her way to avoid influencing her in that way-- but somehow, this just makes her more distant. hesitant to touch.
and with that fear, she tends to react, again, logically. tries to solve it like a puzzle, like she always has. finds the shortest distance to a perceived goal. this makes her rather distant, disconnected-- shes trying to control her own feelings by controlling what is around it.
what this means, most importantly, is that she is unable to trust wolfe the way She trusts her. she isnt strong enough to push back against what she sees of herself, or that which she uses to protect herself. giving in to those well-walked patterns instead of being able to brave uncertainty in something that new. she hides herself because she isnt sure what will become of her-- and is too afraid to risk what may come of losing the person she suddenly deeply cares about. setting herself up to crash harder should the worst happen. because she would simply blame herself. proving herself right.
meanwhile wolfe is dealing with Actually Trusting Someone for the first time in longer than she can remember, whether she likes it or not. maybe she was being stupid. maybe this was just a foolish foray into trusting people like she’d always told herself not to do. but… but. rose just brought this sense of comfort wherever she went, this feeling of certainty.
it was never good to let your guard down, but… but just this once, she so badly wanted to. once you let these things go, it becomes harder to get them back. she knew this. and yet, all the parts of her that protested were overruled by a deep desire to simply lie down and fall asleep in that comforting feeling. how frustrating. how annoying. how dangerous. now she had someone she could not argue against. and yet, she held this advantage as if she did not know it was one she wielded, a dangerous thing held without intent. was this trust? …did she want it to be?
and so, foolishly perhaps, she decided to trust. it was a tenuous thing, unbeknownst to anyone but herself. …probably. rose did have a way of seeing right through people. but even through all that, through the Everything… it felt nice to have someone to look out for. someone to worry about, someone on your mind when there used to be nobody else but you. she’d spent so long worrying about the repercussions of leaving your back to someone, yet she’d never known the comfort of having someone do the same to you. she’d never realized how hard it was to do much of anything with fangs bared the entire way. the ache of worry was dull compared to the weight of silence. (she would give her Everything to her. all or nothing, with her. maybe this was simply part of the inevitable problem.)
hey remember the whole turning-into-creatures thing? yeah thats still happening. crazy right? anyway. The Problem.
so you have people turning into things not quite unlike abnormalities, expressions of deep fears and desires running away with what used to be a human. and youve got some fucked up little guy with a Lot of barely repressed issues thats deceptively easy to mess with and actively averse to anybody really reaching out to them whatsoever.
and then rose is trying her best to figure out whats causing all this bullshit going on, but also her . coworker. is suddenly acting Really snappy and distant and its kinda starting to make her worried and she doesnt want to push her but shes looking really rough lately and fuck. wait. god. wait. shit.
long inhale. so you have two stupid motherfuckers 100% willing to drop everything and kill everyone in this facility and then themselves if anything so much as happens to the other (but theyre super normal about it, its fine, the other doesnt have to know.) theyre so good at this interpersonal interaction thing guys they swear (dont look too close though ok haha.) theyre sooo unknowable guys theyre really pulling a fast one on everyone here. they Definitely know what to do to fix the problem forever its fine they totally get it. dont stop them.
anyway heres a bunch of images for no reason

~First Glance~
-Chapter 1-
Neytiri x !Navi OC
⚠️Warnings- None
•~Summary- Läek (name pronounced lah-eek), Läek Te Eukxu, Is a 19 year old Navi male who was born a Navi mixed half human, And was raised by Grace Augustine his whole life in a camp up in the Hallelujah mountains accompanied by Norm. His first language is Navi thanks to Grace so he has that sexy ass heavy accent like Neytiri. He’s never met the Navi people yet being that Grace wanted him to wait until he was grown and fully taught the Navi language. Although he’s half Navi he does not act as the traditional Navi. He looks Navi but acts human, only wearing the Navi clothing. Today is his big day to make his way to Home Tree and meet the people of Navi and most importantly Neytiri~• >>• !picture of Läek below⬇️! •<<
Tumblr media
“I do not want to leave home” Läek states sternly towards Grace as she continues to gather their stuff to begin there long journey to the astounding place known as Home Tree. “There is no choice knuckle head, you’re whole life has been leading up to this point, you’re ready now” she states looking up from her backpack to take a quick glance at Läek. Läek proceeds to roll his eyes an sigh in frustration as he leans his back against the cold metal wall of the small high tech trailer. “Läek, you have to stop doing that, the Navi are gonna think there is something wrong with you” Grace says standing up. “Stop what?” He ask. “Rolling you’re damn eyes, you’re Navi, now act like it” Grace scoffs giving him a irritating look. “Yes mother, I am Navi but I am also you” Läek says walking towards Grace with his arm out in a pointing motion. “This is my home, not the Navi tree, I belong here” he continues with a sad haze over his eyes. Grace takes a deep breath to think about what she’s gonna say as she hates this just as much as him, but she can’t show that in fear of deterring him from his fate. “Läek” she pauses to take another deep breath, “I can’t keep holding you back anymore, being with the Navi, you’re people. And living an growing even more in the environment that’s made for you” Grace says placing her hands on his shoulders with a sad expression on her face. “You will fit in just fine, you will learn fast and well, I know you will. Besides, iv taught you well and you’re a smart kid” Läek gives grace a faint smile before breathing deeply and nodding his head. Grace finishes getting there belongings together for the long walk and head out the door, right before leaving Läek turns around and soaks in his last look at his childhood home before leaving it behind for new beginnings~… As they continue to push on already half way through there 6 hour walk Grace is stopped in her tracks as she hears a sharp and fast *fftt* followed by a thud causing her to turn around to be greeted by Läek holding his head an bent over in pain. “My forehead was hit by this branch” he says irritated. Grace lightly chuckles to herself before saying “oh man I’m sorry Läek, I thought you were holding the branch that’s why I let it go” she laughs a little harder making him frown at her. “You do not pay attention women” he says rubbing his forehead and proceeding forward past Grace. Some time has now passed and Grace can tell they are getting much closer to HomeTree as she can smell the scent of cooked meets and faint laughs and voices of the Navi talking an going about there day. She can also tell that Läek is becoming more nervous as he’s showing signs of sweating and constantly checking his surroundings as he’s uncomfortable and out of his familiar area. She places her hand on his shoulder an gives it a light rub as the come up to the entrance to HomeTree trying to reassure him that he’s okay. Graces eyes widen followed by a huge smile as she takes in the beautiful view of a place she once knew all too well, the horns then sound alerting the Navi of the arrival of the two…
OKAY SOOO, I kinda wanna make this a chapter series, so if this is something you guys like please interact with this post! It really helps me make content that I know you all will like! EVERY INTERACTION IS SO SO SO APPRECIATED!! It really means so much to me knowing that someone out there is taking the time to read something I worked hard on and enjoying it!❤️❤️

Tumblr media
You walk down the road you drove up last night, finding a little side road after a while, and taking it. It’s plowed but you can’t see any footprints in the newly fallen snow, and the words of Frost come to you: I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference. You scoff to yourself, not in the mood for philosophical musings about your life choices.
The snowflakes are falling down less densely now, and the sky is darkening. Accustomed to the city lights as you are, the darkness seems so compact – yet you’re not afraid. It’s comforting in a way. The idea that you can be completely swallowed up by darkness and cease existing feels good.
The trees grow dense and you can only imagine the green canopy their crowns would form above your head in the summertime. Now only black, naked branches stretch against the black-grey sky, snowflakes slipping through the finger-like limbs.
You stop when the silence is broken by a sound. Is that a dog? Yes, it seems to be a dog barking. A small one, from the sound of it. You look around, expecting someone from the house, but you can’t see anyone. The sound comes from in front of you, so you walk on. The road bends, the trees spread out, and you find yourself looking over a small lake. A thin veil of ice covers the dark water, but it doesn’t seem like it would hold even a mouse.
Or a small dog. You look around in search of the animal, without seeing anything. The barking has stopped, and you feel a shiver run through you.
“You’re the woman in the cottage.”
The voice startles you so much that you give an audible gasp. Turning around, you see the old woman standing right behind you. She’s properly clothed this time, and looking up at you with sharp eyes.
“Yes,” you manage, your heart beating wildly. “I am. We met the other day.”
“I remember,” Olga replies, seemingly irritated at being reminded. Calming down now from the fright, you look the old woman over. She is wearing a long overcoat, sturdy boots, a hat, scarf, and gloves, like any senior citizen going out for a walk in the winter.
“How are you today?” you ask politely. “Can you imagine all this snow?”
“Haven’t had this much snow at Christmas since the seventies,” she replies, looking around. She seems uninterested in you; something else is preoccupying her brain. Is she still looking for that dog of hers? Even now, is she not aware of the dog being long gone?
“Can I help you with anything?” you ask tentatively. “Or help you home?”
“You think I can’t find my own way?” the old woman barks, and you apologize, turning your attention towards the lake instead. The dark, quiet water shines through the thin veil of ice, and you imagine that you can hear the lapping of waves. Olga comes to stand next to you, her gaze roaming the scene in front of the two of you. 
“He’ll come tonight,” she says, sounding concerned, like she’s thinking of a thousand chores yet undone.
“Oh, you mean Santa?” you smile.
“Santa!” Olga scoffs disdainfully, her watery gray eyes piercing into your very soul. “Santa doesn’t exist, foolish girl!”
You haven’t been called a girl in many years, but you can’t take the compliment because if it’s not Santa Olga means, then who? There is nothing about the old woman that suggests that she isn't in full possession of her faculties right now, so who is she expecting?
“Who is coming?” A shiver runs through you as you breathe out the question, and Olga turns towards you.
“Stop mumbling and speak up.”
“Who is coming?” This time you nearly yell it, the suspense making it hard for you to control your voice. Your bladder suddenly feels too small and you’re shivering.
“Ezra, of course.” Olga looks at you as if you were stupid. “Ezra is coming tonight.”
You have too many questions to focus on only one, and you're starting to wish that you had never come here. Not to the lake, not to Oakgrove House. You should have just stayed in your empty apartment and cried Christmas down the drain along with soapy shower water. Buried yourself under a pile of blankets in your lonesome bed.
You meet Olga’s gaze and just as quickly as intelligence lit up her milky grey eyes, the lights are put out and no one is home. She seems to shrink in front of you, hunching her shoulders and hiding her face.
“He said I was his little bird, and that he would come back just in time for Christmas, and we would be married. Mama and papa would not give their blessing but we would run away, live our own lives, just Ezra and his little Blackbird…”
Another shiver makes it difficult for you to find your tongue and will it into forming words, but you force yourself to put your hand on Olga’s shoulder.
“Let’s go home,” you mumble, and the old woman doesn’t protest when you gently turn both of you around and start your slow walk back to the house. Olga is quiet and you can't tell what decade her mind dwells in, but she willingly lets you lead her away from the lake.
The high, piercing barks of a small dog chase you but Olga doesn't seem to hear anything. You wonder if they're real or imagined. Since Olga isn't paying them any attention, you decide it's better to just ignore them and focus on getting the old woman home.
When you're nearing the house and can see the windows light up like glowing eyes through the snow, Olga slides her arm from yours and straightens her back.
"I can walk by myself," she scoffs, like it she wasn't just leaning heavily on you. You draw your arm to yourself, almost ashamed.
"Of course," you mumble, suddenly feeling tired. You haven't done much today but still feel like the day has been long and filled with chores and obligations. The evening, lonely and desperate, is still stretching out before you and for a moment you wish that you were included in the togetherness that you have discerned on the other side of the great lawn. Even now, you hear children laughing and through the snowflakes, you see Olga's grandchildren chase each other on the lawn. It would be nice to belong, to be surrounded by people who love you, to have someone special to cuddle up to...
You swallow hard and tell the rat to stay away from your ribcage, at least until you've relinquished Olga to her family. Only when you're back in the cottage, away from prying eyes, can you break down.
"It gets easier," Olga suddenly says. You flinch and turn your head to her, finding her staring at you with piercing eyes.
"What?"
"It feels like your world is ending," she states matter-of-factly, like she was listing states and their capitals. "But it will get better. One day you realize that you are no longer hurting. That you have forgiven myself."
"What do I have to forgive myself for?" you ask, stunned by her words. You never told anyone here about your ex, did you? The reason for your being here?
Olga stops and searches your face. Snowflakes twirl slowly around the two of you but the brim of her hat keep her face dry. Your lashes are wet with melting snow - or maybe tears, you don't know.
"For not holding on harder," she tells you, the warm hint of compassion thawing the cool practicality of her voice a little. "For not fighting harder to keep him."
You stare dumbly at Olga as your brain scrambles to make sense and words of the conflicting emotions stirred up by her statement. Before you succeed, however, Denise's voice calling for Olga cuts through the snow and makes you look over Olga's shoulder and see her daughter hurry up to you.
"Mom, are you okay?"
"Of course," Olga replies with some irritation, turning to her daughter who stops in front of the two of you. "I can't take a walk by myself anymore?"
"I'm just worried about you going out in this weather," Denise tries to smooth things over. You can see from how her eyes are moving that she's inspecting Olga's attire. Finding it adequate, her shoulders sink visibly. Olga gives you a short nod before marching right past Denise, aiming for the house.
"I hope dinner is ready, I'm hungry."
Denise shakes her head and sighs before turning her attention to you.
"Thanks again for looking out for her. Where did you find her?"
You blink, not really sure how to handle this.
"By the lake," you confess. "But she was... not confused. At all. She was out for a walk. It was really she who held me company on the way back, not the other way around."
"She has good days," Denise nods, grief pulling the corners of her mouth down momentarily. "But I don't like it when she goes on her walks alone."
"I can understand that," you acknowledge uneasily. "It must be hard."
"Thank you," Denise replies simply, then looks over her shoulder at Olga, who is gathering the children and heading towards the house. "Well, dinner's waiting. Do you want to join us?"
"Oh, no, thank you so much, but I've got my own plans," you hurry to assure her. "You have a good evening."
"And you. And sorry for this. Looks like you got more than you bargained for when you rented the cottage."
"I don't mind. Happy to help."
You take your good-byes and return to the cottage, but stop halfway up the pathway. Slowly, you turn around and look at the snowman on the other side of the road.
It stands there, silent and stoic, in the yellow light of the single streetlamp. Through the veil of falling snow, you think you see it winking at you. Of course you are mistaken. It is an inanimate object, nothing more.
And still, you speak to it.
"Don't try anything, Ezra," you say, loud and clear, before retiring to the warmth of the cottage.
Later, when you pour yourself a second glass of wine to chase down the rest of the your simple dinner, you happen to glance out the window.
The snowman is no longer on the other side of the road. It is standing in the garden of the cottage.

Chapter 6: Fist Fights & Broken Hearts
CW: Fighting, Homophobia, Underage drinking, Alcohol, Anorexia, Passing out
Savvy and Tom’s new relationship status was the only thing anyone wanted to talk about. Much to Sage’s irritation, why did those two feel the need to make it so public? It’s cringy and so clearly fake. It’s been three days since it happened and those two idiots have been all over each other since. Even now he had a near front row seat to the pair. He rolled his eyes, a small glare over taking his features as they kissed and said their goodbyes. Tom jogged to his side, tail wagging behind him. Sage looked over to him. “You two done with each other’s throats?” Tom rolled his eyes and patted him back. “Don’t be like that, you got your own girl to kiss.” Sage rolled a hand along his shoulder. “Yeah well, you don't have to be doing that before practice. I don't make out with Brook before a show.” Tom chucked. “Sure you aren't just jealous she’s a lead role?” Sage scoffed. “No, last time I was a lead it was hell. I pity her.” 
The boys ushered inside the locker room to change and begin practice. Sage got nudged by Nathan (a mutual friend of him and Tom) as he was leaving. “So you finally decided to show up as opposed to being all taken up by your girl or brooding?” Sage huffed, muttering. “I'm not brooding.” The other canine raised an eyebrow. “Dude. You look like a queer emo, I didn't know any better I'd think you’d have a crush on Tom.” Sage pursed his lips together. “I'm not and I don't.” Nathan laughed. “Then stop acting like it and get your head in the game.”
Practice is ruthless and his boy aches as he pushes himself. His body bent past its limits as he tackled and got tackled to the ground. Now, facing off against Tom it added such a strange add on. He was huge compared to Sage, a wall of pure muscle. He could feel it each time he crashed into the man. Tom spoke with a grin. “So how’s theater? Savvy’s been telling me…” Savvy, Savvy this, Savvy that, Savvy, Savvy, Savvy. He cursed the damned pet who made that word a thing. Damned that her name was ever spoken at this school. Damned that he ever heard it. “Will you stop talking about her?” He spat out, pure venom leaving his tongue. Tom paused for a moment and let out a stranded lighthearted chuckle. “Oh, sorry man. It’s just nice to be in a relationship after so long.” Sage growled quietly and rolled his shoulders. “It’s rude to be using the poor girl, you know.” Tom cocked his head to the side. “What do you mean?” Sage gestured to him. “As a cover up. You know to hide that you’re gay.” Tom laughed a little and glanced around them, his ears pulled back. “I'm not…” Sage rolled his eyes. “Don't lie to me. Ive caught you looking at my ass, it’s fucking creepy.” Tom crossed his arms over his chest. “Sage what are you-” Sage snapped and continued loudly. “I mean the least you could do is look apologetic for openly being such-” Tom growled lowly. “Don't say it, Sage.” Sage gleaned at him definitely. “So then you know you're a homo.” Tom took in a deep breath and stared back. “Im bisexual.” Sage scoffed. “Then pick a damn side and stop using a poor girl to prove yourself.” 
Tom squeezed his eyes shut and began to walk away from the younger man. “Talk to me when you aren't being such an asshole.” Sage’s face scrunched up into a snarl. Nathen put a hand on his shoulder. “Dude, what's wrong with you today?” He smacked the other man’s hand away and stormed off. God how he wanted a fight. Something to let off this boiling energy in his chest. So he followed Tom into the locker room, fists clenched at his sides. Tom was shirtless, fur glinting with sweat. He turned to look at Sage and was met with a firm fist to his snout. He shouted and grabbed his nose, his eyebrows knit together as he was met with a kick to the side.
Tom grabbed Sage during his second attempt at an assault and shoved him against the lockers. Tom stared at him. “Sage, I don't want to fight you.” Sage spat in his face and was promptly thrown to the ground while Tom whipped his face off. Sage knew he didn't stand a chance and the second he made an attempt at a move he was grabbed and pinned back against the lockers, this time facing them. Tom breathed heavily, his ears pulled back. “Talk to me, asshole.” Tom spoke lowly, holding Sage’s arm in pace behind his back. Sage’s body withed and attempted to kick him as the smaller man growled. “Shut up and act like a fucking man.” Tom toom in a breath. “I am. You’re acting like a boy.” Sage grunted and squeezed his eyes shut. “I hate you.” Tom huffed a ghost of a laugh. “It’s the opposite, isn't it? That’s why you’re acting like this?” Sage growled loudly and with all his might pulled himself away from Tom. Tom watched with his arms crossed, his voice slow. “You’re projecting.” Sage tried to muster a comeback but all he could think died on his tongue so he only replied by swinging his arms and marching to his locker to change. 
Tom clasped a hand around Sage’s shoulder, his eye gentle. “Talk to me, please?” Sage squeezed his eyes shut, hot tears building in his eye as he pulled his head away. Tom rubbed the smaller man’s shoulder with his thumb and let out a sigh. “If you won't talk, then I'm leaving. You hurt me today Sage.” Sage shoved him away with a weak. “Just go away.” To his credit he did so and left Sage to slump into his locker, pain that refused to leave filling his body.
Brook got the call from Sage at maybe 3am. “Hey, I'm outside.” Brook rubbed her eyes with a groan and made her way downstairs. She opened the door to a disheveled, soken, and very drunk, Sage. Brook raised an eyebrow. “You look like shit.” Sage laughed, his words lisped. “I feel like shit.” Brook pulled him inside and slipped the bottle out of his hand. “Go sit down and warm up. You’re gonna get a cold.” Sage grumbled and did so, leaning on things so he wouldn't fall over. Brook tossed the empty bottle into the trash, began getting glasses of water, and warming up food. She called out. “So why are you looking like a dead racoon?” Sage answered slowly. “Feel like poo.” Brook popped the food out of the microwave and placed it in front of him. He swayed forward as he looked at it, ears lopsided on his head. Brook sat across from him. “Eat. You’ll hate yourself more if you don’t.” He nodded and began to do so, albeit slowly. “Why dont… ‘chu eat too?” Brook looked to the ground, hand drifting to her stomach. “I guess I should.” Sage pulled himself to his feet and handed her half of the sandwich he was nibbling on. “I can leave for a bit if it helps.” Brook laughed a little and took a small bite. “No, you'll get killed if you leave my sight.” Sage laughed and tumbled into his seat. “Yeah.” He continued shortly after. “Your mum home?” Brook shook her head. “No. She’s gone for… until I see her.” Sage hummed and looked at the floor. “We need help, don't we?” Brook stared down at the food in her hand, disgust rolling up her throat as she did. “Yeah.”
And he vomited. Brook groaned and stood to get a mop and a bucket. Thank god it wasn't on the carpet. 
Brook nudged Sage off the couch. “Hey there asshole, time for school.” Sage groaned and looked up at her. “Bitch.” Brook laughed at him and threw a change of clothes in his face. “How's the hangover treating you?” He pulled the fabric off him with an unimpressed grunt. “Awfully. Do I have to go to school?” Brook’s eyebrow shot up. “If you plan to go home. You aren't staying here to look miserable all day.” He sighed overdramatically and stood. “You do it.” Brook rolled her eyes. “I haven't since I joined the drama club and I'm not starting now.” Sage huffed and slowly stood. “Can I get a shower at least?” Brook laughed a little. “Please do, frankly you smell like cheap booze.” He laughed mockingly. “Yes, kick me while I'm already down.” Brook shrugged. “You knew the price when you showed up here and puked on the floor.” Sage relented and made his way to the bathroom. 
Brook spoke gently as she drove. “So what happened?” Sage groaned loudly and laid a hand on his forehead. “I got in a fight with Tom.” Brook hummed. “What kind of fight?” Sage explained what happened to her. Brook listened to him quietly and pulled up to get herself and him a coffee. Brook handed him the drink as he finished, her ears drooped over his face. “You’re in basically the same situation as I am.” Sage laughed a little. “Wow, thanks for the moral booster.” Brook rubbed his arm and pulled back into the road. “We’ll figure it out.” Sage hummed lowly and buried his face into his arms. “I hope so. I don't want to lose him.” 
The hell that is school went by as Brook expected it too. Cultivating insults against Savvy and her group of ‘friends’, dealing with the backlash, and maintaining her reputation. The only unknown variable was rehearsal. She watched from a distance as Savvy was led through everything. She makes an impression, that’s for sure. Her voice is strong, her stance confident, everything Brook thought her love could never be. Her ears pulled back as she watched and lessened. That was until Mrs Miller interrupted her thoughts. “Brook, Savvy, I want you two to rehearse together. You need to have chemistry on that stage.” Brook rolled her shoulders and motioned for the other women to follow her. “Yeah, you’re right. Come on Savvy.”
Savvy stared at the back of Brook’s head before speaking. “I'm surprised you’re fine with being the male role.” Brook responded. “What, just because I dress in pink means I have to be the pinnacle of femininity constantly?” Savvy let out a small chuckle. “I suppose not, but I don't expect to see you on a football field.” Brook scoffed and turned around, her hand closed towards her. “God no. I’ll leave that to your meatlug boyfriend.” Savvy’s lips pulled into a smile. “You’re no better with Sage.” Brook put a finger to the canine’s forehead. “At least mine is pretty.” Savvy rolled her eyes. “Then I have to make up for mine.” Brook’s hand slowly fell to the other woman’s cheek, her thumb cressing her fur. “You do.” Savvy’s skin felt like it was heating up as Brook slowly brought them close together. Her hands clasped around the dachshunds' clothing collar and looked her in the eyes. “You’re too good for him.” Savvy swallowed a lump in her throat. “And I'm just good enough for you then?” Brook let out a breath right against her lips, her ears pulling back. “No, you’re too good for me.” Savvy’s hand moved to lay over top of Brook’s hand as she continued. “You’re too good for anyone here.” Savvy let out a breath of her own. “Brook…?”
The world around the feline felt like it was spinning. Her eye’s refused to focus and her words left without thought. She was looking at Savvy one moment and the next, she was falling forward. She heard the canine shout, and felt herself get caught. Then… nothing.

Ive been in such a mood to cry lately so if you can write a fic about azriel and the reader getting into a fight becuz of elain but by the time they reconcile its too late cuz the reader already found someone else (any acotar character) that would be great
Thank you so much for this request. I was a bit passionate writing this as something very similar has recently happened in my real life, hope you like it as it is a bit different to what you requested.
Azriel x Reader | Alea Iacta Est
type: angst, sad warnings: none word count: 920
quick disclaimer: I actually love Elain. All the negativity towards her in this story stems from the "reader‘s" anger and hurt over Azriel choosing Elain over the reader
*all rights reserved*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your vision was blurry with tears, the back of your throat burning. You could barely make out a word of what was said over the blood pumping in your ears. Azriel spoke, his mouth moved but you couldn’t comprehend what he was saying. It made no sense. It made no sense what he said and that he even was here. All those years ago he had chosen Elain. Had chosen her instead of you. Had chosen her instead of his mate. And you had to accept it. You had to live with it even though it had shredded your heart into pieces. You had taken so long to heal and now Azriel was here to rip open all the healed wounds. 
"You don’t make sense, Azriel," you said, your voice quavering. "It all makes no sense. That you are here. What you are saying. I don't understand.”
Azriel took a step forward, wanting to close the distance between the two of you. But you stepped back, shaking your head at him.
You were so overwhelmed, so hurt, so…angry. Gods, you were burning with anger.
Sucking in a breath, you straightened up and squared your shoulders. You were not going to be weak. You were not going to show him how much his sudden appearance had startled you. How irritated you were. How much his rejection still hurt after all those years. 
The audacity that he thought he could come here after all those years and ask to you to finally be his mate…
"Answer me!" you shouted and wiped at your eyes with your the back of your hand. "Tell me why now? What is different now?"
There were so many questions you would have liked to ask: why her? Was she more beautiful? Was she funnier? Kinder? What made him choose her over his mate?
But you could hardly bring yourself to ask these questions, knowing the answers would break you all over again.
Azriel’s throat worked on a swallow and he lowered his gaze to the ground.
"I deserve an answer, Azriel. For everything. Why you left me all those years ago. Why you rejected the mating bond. Why you rejected me! Why you broke me.” You once again had shouted the last part, but it hurt so badly that he thought just because he was now ready for the bond he could have you. Like you were an easy girl—an object he could choose when he wanted to. You were happy now. You found happiness and you found the love of your life in an Illyrian male called Balthazar. Nesta had introduced the two of you after you had been so heartbroken over Azriel’s rejection of the bond. It took you so very long to grow close to Balthazar, but now he was your everything. Your husband and the love of your life.
Azriel had made his decision for Elain, it had broken you, but he still had chosen her. And now…now that this love was longer he thought he could come crawling to you and ask you to be his mate. It disgusted you. 
"I am sorry that I only realised it now," Azriel breathed.
"Realised what?" you growled, your nostrils flaring. "That your mate had loved you from the very first day she had laid eyes on you. That she would have gone to hell and back for you." 
You locked your gaze with his and stepped closer to him. "I would have given you everything. I would have travelled to the end of the world for you. I would have offered you the moon on a string. And still you chose the flowerpot."
Azriel tried to grab your hands. A weak attempt you to calm you, to make you listen to him.
"I thought we were meant for each other. That the Cauldron had made a mistake. I met her before I met you. I thought it had to be us. Three brothers and three sisters. I thought I loved Elain. I did love her," he said and closed his eyes for a long moment.
"And you don’t any longer?"
Azriel shook his head.
"Well, that is your problem then. I have made a decision snd it is final." You inhaled deeply, your fingers curling towards your palms.
"I will never leave my husband for you. I am in love with him. I love Balthazar more than anything in this world," you said, forcing Azriel to look at you. You wanted him to hurt the exact same way you had back then. Azriel’s chest constricted. It ached and so did his heart. He found it hard to breathe, to think, to fight against the tears. Why had he chosen Elain back then? Because he thought they were meant for each other. Because he had loved her. Because he had thought the Cauldron had made a mistake.
"You don’t love him. He is not your ma—"
Before he could finish his sentence your palm collided with his cheek. You both were shocked at that, but you were the first to get out of your stupor. 
"I do love him so much. And there is nothing in this world that could happen that would make me leave him," you said, trying to keep a steady voice. "He is my everything. I am sorry that I hit you, I shouldn’t have done that. But you are in the wrong. I love Balthazar."
Azriel dipped his chin and lifted his hand to brush it over the red spot on his cheek.
"I am sorry, Y/N. I know all of this is my fault. I wish I could change the past and do things differently but I guess that is how it is now."
"Yes, it is. I would like you to leave now."
A tear rolled down Azriel’s cheek, but he complied. He tucked in his wings and brushed past you to get to the door.
"Be happy, Y/N. You deserve it after how much my actions have hurt you."
The door fell shut behind him.
It was the last time the two of you had spoken. The last time you had seen Azriel—your mate.

Can i request a Matt x reader where the reader doesn't remember Matt or their relationship (memory loss) she falls in love with him all over again just angst with a happy ending 💚
He knew the moment you opened your eyes.
It had been days since you’d been conscious, and he’d been at your side the entire time, only leaving when he’d been physically forced to get some fitful rest. His prayers were going unanswered with each second that you remained unmoving, your body almost lifeless if it weren’t for the gentle rise and fall of your chest, the slow, erratic beating of your heart.
The doctor said you were lucky to be alive.
He also said that there might be some lasting effects if you ever did wake up again.
So, the moment you stirred awake, Matt had been by your side, desperately reaching out. Instead of the reaction he expected, you had pulled away, scared. Your heart beat had picked up, and you managed little more than a weak whimper.
Matt called for the doctors, trying to console you without moving any closer. The nurses ushered him from the room, leaving him with no answers as he paced the waiting room irritably.
Nearly a day later, you were stable and awake.
The world felt different to you, though you couldn’t quite remember how it had been before. Everything was strange and new, and you found yourself staring out the window at the street below when Matt entered.
“(Y/N),” he breathed, so much pain and fear in such a small word.
You blinked, curious, and turned towards him.
The sight of him alone took your breath away.
His hair was messy, likely from running his fingers through it. The button-down he wore was wrinkled, and the tie around his neck was sloppy. Beneath the large, red glasses he wore there seemed to be one hell of a black eye.
Still, the air had been stolen from your lungs as you stared at him, your heart thumping faster in your chest.
“I’m sorry,” you apologized shyly. Idly, you rubbed near the IV in your arm. “Do I know you?”
The noise that fell from his lips was desperate, a plea maybe, or a curse.
“You, uh...” he licked his lips, his jaw visibly clenching. “You don’t remember?”
“I...” you faltered, approaching him cautiously.
He was still, tense. The air around him seemed to grow heavier, and you couldn’t find the strength in yourself to even lift your hand to touch his cheek.
“I don’t know.”
Your voice was shaky, tears gathering in your eyes as you squeezed them shut, willing yourself to remember, but there was nothing.
“I can’t remember anything.”
Matt slowly released his breath, clenching his fist to stop himself from reaching out to you.
If this was before the accident, he would’ve done so. He would’ve pulled you to him and held you close, willing the world away from the both of you for a while. But...
You weren’t his.
Not anymore.
He had never felt more lonely than in this moment, only an arm’s length away from you, but a lifetime of memories between you.
Matt opened his mouth to speak, but found no words could quite make it past his lips. What could he say? That he loved you? That you were his everything?
He felt the first few tears begin their trek down his cheeks as he settled on two simple words instead.
“I’m Matt.”
If you noticed his hesitation and the longing etched deep into his soul, you didn’t comment. Instead, you slipped your hand into his, exactly where it belonged.
Except, it wasn’t to hold him, to be close to him- no, it was just to shake his hand.
An introduction.
His heart ached painfully in his chest, and he fought the bile that threatened to rise up his throat.
Matt resolved himself to making you fall in love with him all over again that day, and as with the passage of time, he got to witness it all over again.
The days turned to weeks, the smiles to laughs. Handshakes turned to hugs, chance meetings turned to dates.
And, after months had gone by, Matt found himself holding you in his arms once more, listening to the strong beating of your heart.
“Matt,” you interrupted the quiet softly, your fingers running gently through his hair, soothing his mind.
He hummed, not bothering to lift his head from where it rested on your chest.
A beat passed, the silence warm and inviting.
And then:
“I don’t think I’ll ever remember the time we spent together and the life we had,” you admitted gently, smiling softly. “But, I think I will always fall in love with you.”
In that moment, Matt felt at peace once more, surrounded by your love.

LITG - Spoiler Episode 25 - Season 5
The last of the leaks ive been able to get 😫😫. If anyone gets the files but doesnt feel like editing I can do it..just inbox me! 
-
Living for the drama of these last few episodes, Living for the casa cliffhangers and can’t wait for more. One note: I understand we are SWIMMING in the drama this season, and I am here for it, but Arlo wanted to scream at me in the middle of a bedroom for just LOOKING at Suresh but when I told the girls I was picking him she was just like “Guess you need to tell him then” the math aint mathing! I dont need her to kick off at every little thing but I just wish their personalities were more consistent. She’s been irritated at MC at every turn and now she’s just Ok with MC literally taking Suresh off her hands?? 
An example of more well rounded character was s2 Hope: If you ever told Hope you liked Noah she would be annoyed with you and sometimes angry but when you were coupled with him during Casa she was uncomfortable with it but not mad. 
I just feel like we’re getting half characters, Arlo could be such a better fleshed out character since she’s multi faceted, (potential LI, ex’ LI) 
oh and 💀💀💀 that casa is like day 7 for them 
NARRATOR: So, Kat caught MC and Suresh in a compromising position, who were quickly upstaged when Finn snogged Arlo in front of Kat during Truth or Dare.
NARRATOR: Kat held the moral high ground… for 0.7 seconds before she outed MC’s secret and retaliated by cracking on with Alfie!
NARRATOR: MC caught them at it, and now there’s more beef than a Texas cattle ranch!"
NARRATOR: And with villa alliances now at breaking point, we better get back to the action!"
You stumble into the bedroom slamming the terrace door behind you. Your head spins from what you’ve just seen!
FINN: Woah, you look like you’ve seen a ghost, MC."
MC: I’ve just seen Kat and Alfie.
FINN: Cool, they’re on the terrace?
MC: Snogging each other’s faces off!
FINN: Yeah, right. You can’t kid a kidder, kid. Nice try though.
MC: I’m being serious, Finn.
FINN: Like Alf or Kat would do that to me. Especially after my grand gesture last night.
The terrace door bursts open and Alfie rushes after you, guilt all over his face.
ALFIE: It’s not what it looks like, MC!
MC: It’s exactly what it looked like!,
ALFIE: It just happened. I’m really sorry.
FINN: Aha you’re in on this prank too, Alf. Nice work, but I know a set up when I see one.
Alfie stares at you and Finn, guilt stricken.
ALFIE: I’m really sorry. To you both.
FINN: Wow, you two are really committing to this eh? I thought I was the villa prank king!
ALFIE: This ain’t a wind up, geezer.
MC: You and Kat? Really? After everything!
Alfie doesn’t know what to say.
FINN: Alf, you even put some of Kat’s lipstick on to look extra convincing. Tip of the hat to you, sir.
MC: This isn’t a prank, Finn! Do I look like I’m joking???
MC: Does Alfie look like he’s joking??
Alfie sheepishly wipes Kat’s lipstick from his lips, cringing as he looks at you both.
FINN: You’re trying to tell me this isn’t a prank?
ALFIE: I wish it was, mate. It all happened so fast. We were talking one minute and the next…
MC: You were snogging Kat!
FINN: No way?
ALFIE: I’m really sorry.
FINN: Wow…,
FINN: I don’t know what to say. Didn’t see this happening in a million years!
FINN: MC, did you see this coming?
** CHOICE **
MC: They’ve always had a spark
MC: I didn’t predict this,
MC: I always knew there was something between them. They had that kiss on the first night.
ALFIE: That didn’t mean anything.
FINN: Well, this kiss did!
MC: Maybe I should’ve seen this coming.
MC: This is the last thing I expected to happen.
FINN: Join the club.
MC: Has everything we’ve been through meant nothing to you, Alfie?"
ALFIE: Course it hasn’t. You mean more to me than anyone else here.
FINN: Except Kat?
ALFIE: Let me explain myself.
FINN: Go on then.
ALFIE: MC, I was hurt after finding out about you and Suresh."
MC: You don’t even know what happened–
ALFIE: Please, just let me try to explain.
ALFIE: I felt betrayed. We’d started taking things further. We had that unforgettable night under the stars together.
ALFIE: And then I find out about you and him. In front of everyone!
ALFIE: You must know how that felt after what happened with my ex?
MC: If anyone understands that, it’s me.
ALFIE: Yeah, well you know that my head was all over the place. Kat’s too after what you did, Finn."
FINN: Kissing Arlo? That was a dare!
ALFIE: You snogged her ‘cos you wanted to! Same with how you’ve been flirting with her.
FINN: That was just shooting the breeze. I wouldn’t have taken it further.
ALFIE: You did take it further! In front of everyone.,
FINN: That was in a game. It doesn’t count!
ALFIE: It counted to Kat! We both felt betrayed. That’s why we were up there talking in the first place.,
ALFIE: MC, you know I haven't caught proper feelings for anyone since my ex.
ALFIE: And now when I have, and we’ve started getting more serious, you do this."
MC: I didn’t do anything! I turned Suresh down.
ALFIE: That’s not what Kat said.,
MC: So you trust Kat over me?
ALFIE: Right now I do, yeah
MC: So someone tells you I did something, so you immediately crack on with Kat?
ALFIE: She cracked on with me, but whatever.
FINN: Kat initiated the kiss?
ALFIE: Yeah.
KAT: Err don’t think so, babe! You kissed me.
Kat shoots Alfie a levelling glance from the terrace doorway.
ALFIE: Are you serious?
KAT: Deadly.
MC: What is going on?
FINN: So who initiated it then?
KAT: He did.
ALFIE: She did.
FINN: MC, you saw it. Who initiated it?
Arlo walks into the bedroom to see the action.
MC: I didn’t see the start. Just caught them at it. Neither was exactly holding back.
FINN: You didn’t have to kiss him back did you, Kat?
KAT: You didn’t have to kiss Arlo, did you?
ARLO: I’m staying out of this.,
KAT: Bit late for that, babe.
** CHOICE**
ALFIE: MC, tell me you believe I didn’t initiate it?"
I think Kat kissed you,
I think you kissed Kat,
I don’t know what to believe
MC: I believe you that it was Kat who initiated the kiss.
ALFIE: Thank you.
KAT: Really?
FINN: Did you actually, Kat?
KAT: As if you’ve actually got the cheek to ask me that.
MC: I actually think you kissed Kat.
ALFIE: Really?
KAT: Yes, really.
FINN: Did you actually kiss her first, Alfie?
ALFIE: Course I didn’t! As if you actually have to ask me that!
FINN: I’m having to choose between my best boy and my best girl.
ARLO: I’m not making you choose anything, Finn.
KAT: Stay out of it!
ARLO: Just trying to lighten the mood. Where’s Dana when you need her?
MC: How am I supposed to know who to believe right now?
KAT: Me. I’m not a liar.
ARLO: Think she meant that rhetorically, Kat hun."
KAT: You can explain what that means later. Maybe stay out of it for now, though?",
ARLO: Just trying to lighten the mood. Where’s Dana when you need her?
MC: You kissed each other. That’s what matters.
ALFIE: What matters is you cracking on with that cheating ex of yours!
MC: Here’s what happened–
ALFIE: Save me the details.
MC: You told your side, I can’t tell mine?
ALFIE: Just can’t stomach hearing about it now.
ALFIE: And I can’t be around you right now, MC.
Alfie storms out of the bedroom, Arlo follows him out.
KAT: So you believe Alfie over me then, Finn?
FINN: I don’t know what to believe right now. But like MC says, either way you snogged my best mate.
KAT: I wouldn’t listen to MC, she’s to blame for all this!
MC: How do you work that out?
KAT: If you hadn’t dared Finn he wouldn’t have kissed Arlo. I wouldn’t have revealed your Suresh flirt sesh.
KAT: Alfie wouldn’t have got upset. I wouldn’t have consoled him, and we wouldn’t have ended up necking.
MC: So Finn’s not to blame, then?
KAT: He’s very much to blame and I ain’t done grilling him yet.
FINN: Well, I’m not done grilling you either.",
KAT: Just, technically, MC you started all this.
** CHOICE **
Take the blame
Blame Kat,
Blame Finn
Blame Alfie
MC: I suppose I did start all of this, in a way.
FINN: No, we’re all to blame for this.
KAT: Some more than others though.
MC: You started all this in Truth or Dare, Kat. You said you’d keep it between us
KAT: I didn’t mean to blab. My usual discretion levels got rage trumped when he necked Arlo.
FINN: Usual discretion levels?,
MC: Finn started this all by snogging Arlo.
FINN: Maybe. But all this didn’t need to happen ‘cause of a kiss in a game.
KAT: Wasn’t just the game though was it, babe? That was the final straw.
MC: Alfie started this by storming off and not hearing me out.
KAT: Think you need to own your own part in all this, MC.
FINN: And you don’t, Kat?
FINN: You cheated on me with my best mate!,
KAT: You cheated on me first, babe.
FINN: It was a dare! It wasn’t some clandestine snog like yours.
KAT: Clandy-what-now?,
FINN: I’m done talking to you for now, Kat.
Finn storms out into the bedroom.
KAT: I’m done talking to you too! Wait, Finn.
Kat storms after Finn.
You’re left alone, noticing the sudden silence as you try to work out where this all leaves you.
You sit alone on the terrace trying to compose your thoughts, but the image of the kiss keeps returning.
"The door opens and Suresh joins you on the terrace, his expression unreadable.
SURESH: Wow, sounded like that escalated quick. Are you ok?
SURESH: Stupid question, I know you can’t be okay right now.
MC: That was a lot! Don’t know where to start with it all!
SURESH: Assuming it brought back some stuff between us too.
MC: It probably stings even more because of what happened with us. History repeating itself.
SURESH: I am sorry what I did is still affecting you.
SURESH: You know that was the main reason I came to the villa?
MC: What was?
SURESH: I knew you must still be struggling to move on from what we had together.
MC: How did you know that?
SURESH: Because that’s how I felt. I tried and failed to move on from you, but I needed closure.
SURESH: And knowing you like I do, I was sure you’d feel the same. I came here to give you that closure.
SURESH: I planned to apologise, answer any questions you had and try to make it right.
SURESH: Then I was gonna go home and leave you to move on.
MC: But what happened?
SURESH: I looked into your eyes again. And I knew straight away I couldn’t give up on you.
SURESH: I had to stay and take a shot at winning you back.
MC: And why are you only telling me all this now?
SURESH: I don’t know. Feels like now’s the time to put all my cards on the table.
MC: Because now things are shaky with me and Alfie?,
SURESH: Not gonna lie, that’s part of it. And I can’t really talk after what I did.
SURESH: But things were really good for a long time before we went off track.
SURESH: You’ve been coupled up with Alfie for a couple of days.
SURESH: You shouldn’t be having these problems
MC: None of this would’ve happened if you weren’t cracking on with me.
MC: Guess they had a right to be angry after what happened between us earlier.
SURESH: Maybe. But if they were right for you they wouldn’t have even believed Kat.
SURESH: They’d have heard you out instead of cracking on with someone else.
SURESH: Do you really want to be with someone who slips up at the first sign of trouble?
MC: Isn’t that what you did with me?
SURESH: We were together for a lot longer. And we went through a lot more than you have with anyone in here!
MC: That might be true.
SURESH: Do you think you’ll be able to get past Alfie kissing Kat?,
I can forgive a kiss
I can’t forgive this,
I don’t know yet
It wasn’t as bad as your cheating
MC: I think I can move past a stupid kiss.
SURESH: Really?,
MC: They only did it because of what they thought happened between me and you.
MC: I can’t forgive being cheated on.
MC: Even if they only did it because of what they’d been told about us.
SURESH: I think that’s the right call.
MC: But you want me to make a different call with you?,
SURESH: What we have is different.,
MC: I don’t know how I feel yet. It’s all too raw and all happened so quickly.,
SURESH: Yeah I get that. Your head must be all over the place.
SURESH: That’s why I came up to check on you.
MC: It’s nothing like when you cheated on me.
MC: That stung on another level.
SURESH: That’s because what we had was deeper.
Suresh leans back and looks at the Islanders unpacking the drama in hushed tones in the garden below.
SURESH: You know that none of this drama would be happening if we just got back together.
MC: Is that so?
SURESH: I think so. And I’m not sure if you’re ready, but I am.
MC: Ready for what?
SURESH: To move past everything. My mistakes. Your mistakes. Our past.
SURESH: I’ve lived with you and without you. And being without you doesn’t even compare.
SURESH: I want the wild, fun life that we used to have together. I know now that you’re the only girl for me.
MC: What about Arlo?
SURESH: Arlo’s great, but she isn’t you. And we don’t have what me and you have.
SURESH: That was obvious on our double date last night. I could only think about you.
SURESH: And I can promise you that I wouldn’t make the same mistake again.
SURESH: I don’t think anyone else here can make that promise.,
MC: Why’s that?
SURESH: Because they haven’t learnt the lesson I’ve learnt from losing you.
SURESH: I’m not asking for an answer now, your head’s scrambled.
SURESH: But I need an answer tonight.
MC: You’re giving me a deadline?
,SURESH: It affects more than just us now and we need to sort this asap.,
SURESH: I know where my head’s at. It’s over to you now.
Suresh flashes you a confident grin and goes back inside. Your head swims from this sudden deadline and you wonder where your decision will leave the villa tonight.
You head into the garden and Finn urgently motions you to join him on the day beds.
FINN: MC, I was waiting for you to come down. We really need to talk.
MC: About what?
FINN: What do you think? Kat and Alfie! I still don’t know who to believe.
FINN: I need to talk it through and right now you’re the only one who gets what I’m going through.
FINN: Drama’s flying in all directions, and it’s about to get even more dramatic.
MC: How so?
FINN: Well, I’ve got a massive decision to make. My biggest in the villa!
MC: About Kat?,
FINN: About you, MC!
MC: What do you mean?
FINN: Join me for a chat and I’ll tell you.
** There wasn’t the normal Diamond markers but I think this is a Diamond Route based on the come, don’t come chat **
I can’t say no to that
I’ve had enough drama already
MC: Sounds like we need to talk right now!,
Finn takes a conspiratorial look around the garden, checking no one is in ear shot."
FINN: Come join me, MC.
You sit next to Finn on the day beds and notice this is the most serious you’ve seen him.
MC: So, what do you want to talk to me about, Finn?"
"FINN: Well, my head’s spinning like one of them fairground waltzer thingies!"
FINN: I can’t get the image of Kat and Alfie out of my head. Still not sure I believe it really happened.
** If you pass **
MC: I’m still going to have to pass on this.
FINN: That’s a real shame, MC. I’ll have to find someone else to fill in then.
Finn leaves you alone and walks away deep in thought.
MC: I can confirm it definitely did happen.
FINN: I guess I always had some little doubts about Kat.. but Alfie?
FINN: I thought there was more chance of me becoming a brain surgeon than him making moves on Kat.
MC: You think he initiated it then?
FINN: I dunno. They were both upset. Either one could’ve acted out.
FINN: But I thought Kat was all in with me. Maybe I didn’t know her as well as I thought.
FINN: It’s got my little Finn brain all confused about what I want.
MC: Confused if you want Kat or Arlo?
FINN: I came to a different conclusion.
FINN: But first, I need to know if you still want to be with Alfie?
FINN: Obviously, my girl Kat’s not my biggest fan since Truth and Dare.
FINN: Thanks for that dare by the way, MC! Dropped me right in
MC: You dropped yourself in it. And it looked like you enjoyed it too.
FINN: A little too much. And I do get why Kat’s fuming, but kissing Arlo has me asking myself all sorts of questions.
MC: Like if you want to be with Arlo instead of Kat?
FINN: My weird little brain came to a different conclusion.
I still want to make it work
I don’t want to make it work
I haven’t got the foggiest
MC: I still do want to make it work, despite what they did.
MC: Does that make me a total melt?,
FINN: Yep!
FINN: Just kidding, I get it. Your feelings aren’t gonna switch off like a tap."
MC: Right now I can’t see a future together.
FINN: I don’t blame you after what they just did.
FINN: But I’m very happy to hear where your head’s at.
MC: I don’t have a clue where my head’s at with them right now.
MC: So much drama tonight!
FINN: Wait till you hear where my head’s at.
MC: So, where’s your head at then, Finn?
FINN: I keep thinking about how different this would all be if I’d coupled up with you when I had the chance.
MC: Really?
FINN: I guess me and you going through the same thing together has me questioning things.
FINN: I guess watching things get complicated with you and Alfie got me questioning things.
FINN: I should be thinking about Kat right now, but I keep thinking about you, MC.
FINN: And all the little moments we’ve had together so far.
MC: Like what?
FINN: Like when we nearly kissed in our first proper chat on day one.
FINN: How you were my first choice for the date, and how our chat flowed like the river Liffey.
FINN: How I’ve felt like I was being sucked into your sublime MC eyes every time we’ve talked.
FINN: That electric first kiss we had and how outrageously soft your lips felt.
FINN: That connection that’s always drawn me to you.
MC: But you were drawn to Kat more?
FINN: I felt more sexual chemistry with Kat, and maybe I was thinking with my little chap downstairs."
MC: You call your… equipment the ""little chap downstairs""?
FINN: Well I sometimes call him Finn Minor or Fini Me… or Bryan when he’s been naughty.
MC: I thought you were being serious for a minute there.
FINN: Sorry, I was. Let me get this back on track.
FINN: I’ve always been able to say things to you that I haven’t with Kat. Maybe that’s ‘cause we’ve a deeper connection.
FINN: I know I’m always joking and flirting around, but I am here to find something serious."
FINN: Someone who can have the craic with my boys but also hit it off with my ma and da. And all my brothers.
MC: All your brothers? How many have you got?,
FINN: You wouldn’t believe me if I told you.
MC: Try me.
FINN: Believe it or not, but I’ve got five older brothers. They’re all just as daft and reckless as me!
MC: Wow, your parents must’ve had a hard time keeping you all in line.
FINN: They gave up on that years ago.
FINN: But my fam does mean the world to me.,
FINN: And when I’ve got a big decision to make I always get advice from my ma and da.
MC: Not your brothers?,
FINN: Not since they talked me into going to my grad ceremony in just my cap and gown! True story.
MC: Bet that was quite a sight!
FINN: My ma and da gave me the talking to of all talking tos after that!
MC: Well, what would they say to you now?
FINN: They’d tell me off about my flirty hi-jinx in Truth or Dare.
FINN: Then my ma would make me promise to stop showing off and being so cocky.,
FINN: And then they’d both tell me I should try to give things a go with you.
MC: And do you usually take your parents’ advice?
FINN: I think it might be time I started to. You’re the Rose of Tralee after all.
Finn looks at you with big puppy dog eyes and a tender smile.
FINN: I know my timing’s dreadful but I feel like I need to make a quick decision on all this.
He looks into your eyes like he wants to kiss you, but hesitates.
FINN: I know you said you wanted to make a go of it with your current squeeze. But…,
FINN: But I’d love you to give me a shot.
You hear raised voices across the garden where the girls have an animated discussion. Arlo rushes over to you.
ARLO: MC, we need you over here right now!
FINN: We’re having a serious chat here.
ARLO: Well, not as serious as ours, trust me.
MC, come on let’s go.
Dana waves you over to join them across the pool.,
Kat waves you over to join them across the pool.
FINN: Looks like you’re needed over there, MC. Let’s finish this off later.
Finn walks away towards the villa, casting you an enigmatic glance back. Arlo leads you towards Dana and Kat who watch you approach intensely.
You and Arlo join Dana and Kat by the pool, and all stand awkwardly silently.
DANA: MC, thanks for joining the most awkward social scenario I’ve ever been in.
DANA: And considering my outrageous social awkwardness, that’s saying something.
MC: Yeah, this is all tense isn’t it?
ARLO: And we need to squash this beef! I didn’t come to the villa to not have a laugh.
KAT: Should’ve thought about that before cracking on with my fella.
ARLO: Come on, hun, he kissed me. Can’t blame me for kissing him back.
KAT: Can and will, babe.
DANA: We’ve all kissed each other in challenges.
KAT: And it wouldn’t be major if they hadn’t been flirting like teenagers for the last few days!,
ARLO: I’ve only been here a few days. I’m gonna get my flirt on and see who I click with.
KAT: Thought you did that already and clicked with Suresh?,
ARLO: Yeah, and he’s been my number one. But I wasn’t ready to rule out other options yet.
ARLO: And I’m glad I didn’t since MC and Suresh were secretly cracking on.
MC: You didn’t even see what happened, Arlo.
KAT: I saw it all though.
DANA: No offence, Kat, but you’re the least reliable witness ever!"
KAT: And why’s that?
DANA: Come on, Kat, you know I love you. You’re, like, my most unlikely friend ever.
KAT: Err, thanks?
DANA: But you love the drama! And you sometimes get a tad carried away when you sniff some goss.
KAT: Babe, I could’ve sniffed this goss from Basildon!
KAT: Suresh and MC were all over each other.
MC: You really think you’re in a position to stoke the fire, Kat?
ARLO: Forget Kat for a second, MC. I wanna know the truth here.
ARLO: What actually happened between you and Suresh?
**CHOICE**
Tell the truth // This Response will depend on what you chose previously.
Sassily imply that more happened than did
Refuse to answer,
TRUTH
** If you pied Suresh off**
MC: Suresh tried to kiss me but I turned him down
ARLO: Really?,
MC: Yes. That’s what you walked in on, Kat. And like Dana says, maybe you got carried away?"
ARLO: Or she lied about it?
KAT: I ain’t no liar.
,ARLO: Or maybe MC is lying about it?
DANA: MC isn’t a liar.
ARLO: Well, something’s not adding up here.",
** if you kissed Suresh**
MC: Suresh was being super flirty and we kissed
KAT: Told ya
ARLO: Are you for real, MC?
MC: He was talking about this hot moment in our past and it kind of turned us both on.
DANA: Not sure if Arlo wanted the specifics.
ARLO: Interesting you’re saying Suresh initiated it. But even if that’s true, kissing him is proper shady!
** 2nd Choice – Sassily imply that more happened**
MC: What didn’t happen between me and Suresh? He was being super flirty and I wasn’t exactly complaining.
MC: We were basically cracking on with each other. Our hands were all over each other.
KAT: Oh my days.,
ARLO: Are you for real right now?!,
MC: It was getting pretty real between us. We were all over each other and we were seconds away from–
DANA: What are you doing, MC? Like we don’t have enough drama already.
KAT: And you say I’m dramatic?
ARLO: MC’s just trying to wind me up. Suresh is a flirt but he wouldn’t do that.,
KAT: You sure about that, babe?
ARLO: Certain! And MC, pretty shady you’re trying to milk even more drama.
** 3rd option – Refuse to answer**
MC: That’s no one’s business but mine.,
ARLO: Since I’m coupled up with Suresh, I’d say it’s definitely my business too.
KAT: Come on, MC, time to get it all out there.
MC: Like I said, I’m keeping that to myself.
ARLO: You’re being proper shady right now, MC.
ARLO: Guess I’ll be having a chat with Suresh about where his head’s at.
ARLO: Should have one with Finn too, while I’m at it.
KAT: You remember Finn’s coupled up with me, yeah?
ARLO: You remember snogging his best mate, yeah?
KAT: He snogged me, but whatevs.
Kat pouts and turns to you slightly awkwardly.
DANA: Girls, let’s bring this down a notch.
ARLO: Fine!
KAT: Fine!
Everyone calms slightly. Kat looks at you a little awkwardly.
KAT: Guessing you’ve got some questions for me, MC.
**CHOICE**
Why did you kiss Alfie?
Do you still want Finn?,
Did Alfie say anything about me?
,I don’t want to talk to you
**1st Choice**
MC: Time you told me exactly why you kissed Alfie isn’t it?
DANA: Yeah, you were never even that into him when you were coupled up with him.
ARLO: Was it just a revenge kiss for Finn kissing me?
KAT: Well, I’ve always thought Alfie was cute, but he’s no Finn. Total plank that Finn is!
MC: You haven’t answered the question.,
KAT: I felt royally pied off. Alfie even more! He opened up about loads of stuff to me.
KAT: What can I say? I’m a sucker for a sob story.
** 2nd Choice**
MC: Do you even still want to be with Finn right now?
KAT: Course I wanna be with Finn! He’s a total plank, but he’s my plank.
KAT: I’ve got something with Finn that I haven’t had before. And that’s why I get a bit protective.
KAT: MC’s the only one who’s had the inside scoop on what me and Finn have got up to.
KAT: I guess I’m a lot more into him than even I realised. And I don’t wanna lose him.
,KAT: Despite him being a complete tool.
,DANA: You were made for each other Kat.
KAT: Thanks, babe."
ARLO: Didn’t get Dana’s joke then, Kat?
,KAT: What joke?
**3rd choice**
MC: Did Alfie tell you anything about where his head’s at with me?
KAT: He told me a lot about his past. And why you and Suresh are such an issue for him.,
ARLO: What about his past?
KAT: That’s for Alfie to share if he wants to. But he went in on how much he was falling for you, MC.
KAT: How happy he was with you before all this drama.
MC: Did he say if he still wants to be with me?
KAT: I think you’re the only girl he might give a second chance to. But you’ll need to work for it.
KAT: That is if you still want to after he kissed me.,
** 4th choice**
,MC: I really don’t want to talk to you about any of this!,
KAT: Well, we kinda have to, don’t we?"

Two Years Ago 
——◐——
Centuries ago the moon goddess stumbled across her human soulmate while he was sleeping. Struck by his beauty, but reluctant to reveal her identity, the goddess began to visit him in his dreams where she could hide her true form and appear before him as a mortal woman. 
In the world of dreams their love flourished and from that blessed union the packs were born…
The wolf nations celebrated this sacred romance every ten years during the Festival of the Lover’s Moon…
The day of the festival was spent eating and drinking and dancing at large parties, but when the sun went down… well—
That’s when things got really interesting. 
On the night of Lover’s Moon the young unmated wolves of the pack were permitted to commemorate this legendary love story in a decidedly scandalous manner. 
The unmated men assumed the role of the goddess’s sleeping lover—they were blindfolded (to represent slumber) and led into a large sectioned off area of the dark forest to ‘wait and dream.’
Unmated she-wolves over the age of maturity (eighteen) took herbal scent suppressors and ventured out into that very same forest in order to anonymously ‘visit’ the young men ‘in their dreams’...
The rules for what exactly that meant were pretty fast and loose which was why Min Yoongi was thanking the goddess and every other deity he could think of that Yunli was still seventeen. 
“But I will be eighteen in two days! Please can’t I just—“
“No. Absolutely not under any circumstances ever.”
“But Yoonji is going!”
“Ji-ah is nearly nineteen and has never been interested in any of the snotty little man-pups of our pack.” He snorted. “She’s probably going out just so she can shove a bunch of them in the lake.”
“I wouldn’t count on it,” Yunli mumbled irritably. 
Tumblr media
Kim Taehyung yawned idly and snuggled into the cozy little pallet he prepared at the base of his favorite tree. The blindfold he and all the other unmated ‘lovers’  wore was made from witchcloth and could not be removed while the sun was down—so he had snuck into the forest earlier to set everything up. 
Now all he had to do was wait until—
“H-Hi Taehyung.”
Oh sh—
“Uh. Hello...Miss.”
Taehyung didn’t recognize the owner of that voice, but he knew for sure who it wasn’t. 
“I was hoping to find you tonight.”
This is not good. 
“Well I’m—I’m flattered… naturally but—”
She touched his hand and he squeaked. 
“I was thinking you and I might get to know each other a little bet—eep!”
The sharp point of a custom blade pressed directly into the unfortunate young beta girl’s pulse point. 
“Are you lost, puppy?”
A heavy cloak obscured the newcomer’s features, but there was no mistaking her meaning. 
Taehyung bit his lip to keep from snorting as the poor she-wolf scrambled away. 
“Ji-ah,” he tsked with feigned disapproval, “that wasn’t very nice.”
Min Yoonji grinned as she sheathed her wicked looking dagger and slid languidly into his arms. 
“You don’t like nice girls, Kim Taehyung.”
“I like you,” he whispered breathlessly against her lips. “Nice or not—it doesn't matter to me…” His hands slid greedily over her soft curves—pulling her closer till he felt the beat of her heart against his own. “I’ll like anything as long as it’s you.” 
Tumblr media
This was the stupidest idea in the history of stupid ideas. 
Jimin huffed as he struggled to find a comfortable position against the giant boulder he’d chosen as his perch.
Why did I let Taehyung talk me into this?
He could be at home—in bed—comfortably sleeping off the all-day feast he’d indulged in. 
Instead he was out in the middle of the forest sitting blindfolded on a rock in the off chance that one of the she-wolves was out looking for him. 
Not bloody likely. 
Not when prime targets like Namjoon, Hoseok, Jungkook—and countless others—were scattered throughout the woods. 
“Park Jimin?”
Every hair on Jimin’s body stood on end. 
It was a soft whisper—the speaker clearly didn’t want her voice to be recognized, yet something about the sound sent a curious frisson of interest down his spine. 
He gulped. 
“Yes… that’s me. But if you’re looking for Hoseok he’s just a little deeper in. You probably caught his scent downwind so—”
“I’m not looking for Hoseok.”
Jimin licked his lips and the sight of it sparked a odd curl of heat in the pit of your belly. 
“I don’t know where anyone else is…”
“That’s quite alright.” A muted shuffle of movement reached his ears as you settled down beside him. “I was looking for you.” 
“Oh…” He rubbed the back of his neck idly. “Are you sure?”
Laughter like fairy bells whispered through the air and Jimin felt his heart clench.
Don’t get your hopes up. 
“Who are you?”
You were silent for a long time and then—
“I am someone who owes you a debt. One I have never been able to repay.”
Jimin’s head tilted curiously as he considered your words. 
“I’m sorry, miss… you must be mistaken. There isn’t—“
“You don’t remember.” 
It was a statement—not a question. Your voice was nearer now. He could feel the warmth of your body close to his—though not quite touching. “It was your wolf that saved me. But you had not gone through the Change yet.”
Familiar shame spiked sharply in his chest.
“I’m seven years past the Change...Why have you never mentioned this before?”
“Circumstances prevented me from doing so.” 
There was a cold finality to your pronouncement—which of course did nothing but further inflame his curiosity. 
“Then why come to me now?”
“I’ve come to repay you.”
Jimin’s mouth dropped open. 
Were you trying to—?!
“Oh—no please that-that’s not necessary—I could never take advantage of—”
You giggled again.  
“I am not offering my body, Park Jimin.”
Jimin breathed a heavy sigh of relief then shook his head with a wry chuckle. 
“Well considering the circumstances I can hardly be blamed for assuming you might be. And honestly most men would jump at the chance to—”
“You...are not most men.” 
Jimin’s eyes narrowed beneath his blindfold. 
“Little she-wolf—I may not be wrestling bears for fun or bare knuckle boxing in the town square, but I am still an alpha.”
The weight of his command poured over your body as he spoke the last word. There was no order or intent—he had simply given you a taste of his power. 
Aside from your direct blood relatives, no alpha had ever dared unleash their compel in your presence—therefore you were utterly unprepared for the effect it had on you—
Utterly unprepared for the strange surge of want so potent and profound that it stole the breath from your body. 
It was primal—invigorating—
Sensual.
You and your wolf may not have been entirely connected yet, but she was suddenly quite vocal about her desire to fully bask in Park Jimin’s attention.
A wicked grin played over his lips as he leaned in closer and you could almost feel the soft brush of his lips against your cheek. 
“Did you think I would not desire the touch of a beautiful woman in the moonlight?” he whispered. 
Please touch me, Alpha. 
Your eyes widened. 
Dear goddess. Your inner wolf was turning out to be a shameless hussy. 
“You might desire it, but you are far too  honorable to accept it as payment for a debt.”
Jimin drew back warily. 
You were correct of course. After all he had refused you when he believed that was your intent but—
“How could you know that?”
Evade. Evade now. 
“Well... how could you know I was beautiful? You’re blindfolded.”
He shrugged and your wolf took careful note of the way it made all the pretty muscles in his back and shoulders ripple. 
He will give us such strong—
Oh boy. 
He will do no such thing. Please calm down. 
“Not everything must be seen with your eyes.”
Is that how you found me? All those years ago...
Questions churned chaotically beneath your consciousness but you dared not give voice to them. 
Focus.
“I must repay this debt. Ask for what you want and—if it is in my power—I swear it will be yours.”
Jimin smiled again, but this time it was somehow softer. For a moment he looked almost…
Sad. 
“I’m afraid that the only thing I have ever wanted is not within your power to give...and I dare not ask you or anyone else for it.”
For her. 
He sighed and drew even farther away from you—in fact it seemed like he was preparing to leave. 
No. 
Your hand reached out almost of it's its own accord and wrapped tightly around his wrist. The contact sent a shock of searing heat through his veins and he froze. 
“Please alpha. It is not acceptable for someone like me—” a leader, a Luna, “—to owe another my life and offer nothing in return. You must let me pay my debt.”
Omega, his wolf growled, sweet perfect omega. 
Suppressors may have hidden your scent, but the siren song of an omega pleading prettily in his ear was unmistakable—irresistible…
“What if all I want is your name?”
You sighed deeply. 
“I cannot give you that. My name is… not mine to offer.”
Jimin laughed. 
“A woman I cannot remember with a name I cannot know and whose face I cannot see.” He shook his head. “Perhaps you are just a figment of my imagination.”
It was hard to explain what happened next...For whatever reason his words cut you deeply and you were overcome with the desire—no need—to refute them somehow. 
“I’m real enough,” you whispered, bringing his hand to your cheek. 
Jimin was genuinely beginning to wonder if you were a witch as well as a she-wolf. Being close to you was intoxicating and the urge to draw you in was steadily overpowering every other thought.
“Could I ask you for a kiss, then?”
“You—...You saved my life and all you want... is a kiss?”
The air grew heavier as the strange magnetic pull between you swelled to a silent inescapable crescendo. 
“In Seoul I often searched for someone who could ease my loneliness, yet each time I walked away emptier than before.” His thumb brushed gently over your lips and your eyes fluttered shut. “I have never had a kiss that meant anything to me.”
But yours might. 
It was unclear who moved first, whether he pulled you to him or you surged forward but when your bodies aligned and your lips met his for the first time it was as if you had never been separate from one another. 
As if you had always been deeply—intimately —together. 
The indescribable feel of him lit over your senses like a struck match. It was an ignition in the purest sense of the word— a fiery visceral awakening fueled by a consuming flood of desire. 
Yes, Alpha. 
He might never see your face or hear your name, but Jimin knew he would remember the taste of you for the rest of his life. It was hot and bright like liquid sunshine— a pure relentless light flowing through him where there was once only darkness. 
A soft needy moan rose up from your chest and he growled in primal satisfaction as you melted against him. 
Your fingers curled into the fabric of his shirt of their own accord, desperately trying to bring him closer until he wrapped his arms around you in a heated embrace. 
“Please,” he begged breathlessly against your mouth. “Please tell me who you are.”
The words crashed over you like a bucket of ice —dousing the hazy pleasure of his kiss with a cold bite of reality. Suddenly you were wrenching yourself away from him and your wolf whimpered in misery at the loss of his touch. 
“I can’t,” you whispered. 
And then you were gone. 
Tumblr media
“Did someone hurt you?”
You looked up to find Jin taking in your tears with cold fury. 
Twin knives were already gleaming dangerously in his hands and he appeared ready to filet whichever bastard was foolish enough to make you cry. 
“No,” you sniffed—well aware of how pitiful you were at the moment—crying in the corner of your cousin’s kitchen. “I got myself into this mess without any help—as usual.”
Jin sighed and slid down next to you. 
“Tell me.”
“Something happened that I…I didn’t intend.”
“Oh I knew that already. The Luna isn’t supposed to be running around on the night of Lover’s Moon in a forest full of blind horny wolves—“
You snorted and shook your head. 
“You’re absolutely right. I should have stayed away.”
Jin’s eyes narrowed and he wondered if perhaps you had caught Kim Namjoon with another omega. Nothing would be official until after the Change of course, but your bond with him was basically a foregone conclusion at this point. 
“You went looking for someone...didn’t you.”
You nodded miserably—all but confirming his fears. He made a mental note to push Namjoon in the swamp at the next available opportunity. 
“You know... the stories say that a Luna is powerfully drawn to her mate under the Lover’s Moon—that her wolf can sense him even before the Change.”  He reached over and gently began to brush the tears from your eyes. “So it’s not surprising that you sought him out, but it’s not really fair to hold whatever it is you saw against him. There is no relationship between you yet and…” he chuckled, “kisses beneath festival moonlight don’t really mean anything anyways.”
It was clear that Jin had somehow gotten the entirely wrong impression, but perhaps that was for the best. 
No one knew of your connection to Jimin and no one had seen what passed between you. 
Still…
Something about his assessment stung you. 
“You really believe that? ...That a kiss exchanged tonight means nothing?”
“I do.” Jin spoke with conviction. “There’s ancient magic at play in those woods. You can’t always trust what you see—or what you feel.”
“Oh I...I didn’t know…”
After a moment you laid your head against his shoulder and let the last of your tears run silently down your cheek. 
“Jin-ah have you ever wanted something you knew you couldn’t have?”
“Yes.” He sighed heavily and pulled you in to snuggle a bit closer. “When I was younger I dreamed of having a mate just like everyone else…”
The words were so softly spoken—almost wistful. Your heart splintered just hearing them. 
“But… she could be out there—your mate.”
Jin shook his head. 
“When is the last time you heard of a female alpha?”
Fresh tears welled up in your eyes. 
“Jin…”
“Hey,” he whispered, “don’t waste your crying on me. I’ve long since come to terms with who and what I am.”
“You’re not sad anymore?”
“Well… maybe sometimes I am… but I had to accept that people like us are not like everyone else. Our destinies were written long before we were born.”
“And you believe you’re destined to be alone?”
“Wolves in a pack are never really alone.”
“Yes...but they can be lonely,” you whispered thinking back to Jimin’s words. 
For a moment Jin’s eyes were the saddest you had ever seen them. 
“Well...I suppose they can.”  Then he chuckled and gave your nose an affectionate little tap. “But you don’t need to worry about that. When the time comes Namjoon will take his place at your side and the two of you will build a wonderful life together... Isn’t that what you want?”
Isn’t it?
Your treacherous thoughts drifted back to the boy in the moonlight—to the way your body sang when he touched you and the strange insatiable desire to know him and be known by him in return.
“Please...Tell me who you are.”
A heavy ache settled in your heart. 
You were the Luna of the mountain nations. A true born moon princess. 
You could never be the woman who kissed Park Jimin underneath the stars. 
You were not like everybody else. 
“...Yes. That is what I want.”
Tumblr media
——◐——
Now 
——◐——
Jimin’s heart pounded as he tore through the dark paths of the wood with Taehyung, Yoongi, and Jungkook close behind. 
He had never led an attack—had never been trained to command wolves in battle. 
It was his first true test of leadership and he hadn’t even been a leader for twenty-four hours. 
Yet the fears and anxieties that might have normally clouded his mind were notably absent. 
There was only you.
Ironically Jimin owed Namjoon yet another debt—this time for explaining what exactly someone like him was capable of. 
The alpha Jin captured had given up their plan and position after being exposed to Jimin’s unique gifting, so he had a concrete target in his mind… He suspected however, that your captors had taken precautions after leaving some of their men behind. They had shifted their camp. 
But it wouldn’t be enough to save them. 
Jimin didn’t need your location to find you. 
He spent years refusing to look at you, and even then he always knew exactly where you were. He could sense you in any crowd—hear your voice in a thousand.
Once it had tormented him cruelly to be so aware of you. 
Now it was the only thing keeping him sane. 
He followed the connection between his heart and yours like a lifeline and it guided him as surely as the stars. 
The alphas followed him without question. 
If any of them harbored lingering doubts before, they were firmly laid to rest after what they saw at the cottage. No ordinary wolf could do what he had done. 
The Alpha would bring back their Luna and retribution would be swift indeed. 
Tumblr media
The drugs in your system kept swinging you in and out of lucidity like a nightmarish pendulum. You tried to shift after the initial nausea faded, but whatever they gave you kept your wolf caged beneath your skin. 
Jimin
The longing you felt for your mate was the only thing tethering you to reality. You could almost hear him echoing in the far corners of your mind—  
I’m coming Omega—hold on. 
I’ll find you. 
Part of you recognized that his voice was likely nothing more than the wistful creation of your drug-addled mind, still you clung to it like the last shred of hope while the minutes (or hours) flew past.
Chaos clouded your thoughts even in clearer moments as many unavoidable concerns forced their way through the haze. 
Jin was at the house with you when they broke in. You had no way of knowing if he survived. 
The men who took you were crass and irreverent. Their eyes followed your form with too much interest and too little respect. 
It was starting to get cold and (due to you nearly dismembering a high council member and needing to be compelled unconscious) you were still wearing a thin white ceremonial dress which offered very little protection from the elements. 
You wondered idly if your idiot captors would let you freeze to death before they accomplished whatever it was they took you for. They clearly needed you for something or you would have been long dead by now. 
None of them struck you as particularly brilliant planners so the mastermind must be somewhere else... 
Frankly the entire situation was as puzzling as it was troubling. Iron Claw had always gotten along well with your pack. 
Technically they were (almost) what the human governments called a vassal state. The presence of a Luna determined the dominant pack in a region and the Luna of the mountain nations had been born into Silver Fang—your pack—for the last thousand years or so. 
Why would they challenge us now? 
The birth of a Luna indicated that the goddess had chosen that pack to lead. Their willingness—not only to kidnap you—but to go against the dominant pack by doing so was alarming to say the least. 
A sudden explosion of movement and sound interrupted your contemplation. Motion erupted all around you—boots pounding on the ground, men falling into their wolf forms, knives being drawn… 
You lifted your head—straining forward to see the source of the commotion—and nearly collapsed in relief when you finally did. 
Alpha
Your mate stood at the edge of the camp flanked by two enormous black wolves. 
A deadly looking jingum sword gleamed dangerously in his right hand. You recognized it immediately as your great-grandfather’s combat blade—the thousand year-old weapon of the Silver Fang Alphas. 
Relief flooded your chest all over again at the sight of it. Only Jin could have given him that sword—which meant he was still alive. 
The black wolves—Yoongi and Jungkook—snarled viciously but made no move to attack. 
Your captors were still scrambling into some sort of combat formation when Jimin finally spoke. 
“You have violated our sacred laws, trespassed in sovereign pack lands, kidnapped a Luna under the protection of our goddess, abducted the mate of the Silver Fang Alpha, and risked open war between our peoples.” He took a single step forward. “Surrender now and I will be merciful.”
The biggest of your captors—a man you recognized as the de facto leader—spat viciously on the ground. 
“You are not my Alpha,” he growled.
A cold—almost cruel—smile twisted over Jimin’s lips.
“Very well.”
Then he dropped to one knee and a massive grey wolf—Taehyung—leapt over his head and tore out the defiant leader’s throat before he even hit the ground. 
Your mouth dropped open. 
Bangtan formation.
Yoongi and Jungkook lunged forward in opposite directions, tackling their targets to the forest floor in a bloody clash of teeth and claws. 
One of the larger Iron Claw alphas half-shifted and charged Jimin but his arm shot out lightning fast, catching his attacker by the throat to send him flying through the air into a tree. 
The next several minutes could only be described as terrifyingly beautiful.
It was immediately clear that Jimin had been holding back when he fought Namjoon. 
He dispatched his opponents with such elegant savagery it was almost art.
You were so mesmerized watching Jimin sensually sword dance his way through a dozen alphas nearly twice his size that you almost missed Taehyung’s wolf rushing over with a dagger clenched between his teeth. 
Luna are you okay? 
You grinned and held up your rope-bound wrists. 
“I’ll be better once you pass me that knife.”
Taehyung nodded once and dropped the blade at your feet before tackling another wolf that was tearing towards the two of you. 
You sawed through the ties around your ankle first then twisted your arms to try and slice through the restraints on your wrist. 
The Iron Claw wolves were clearly no match for Jimin and his alphas. 
Jungkook and Yoongi chased after the few who were trying to run while Taehyung half-shifted to subdue the handful of wolves left alive as prisoners. Only Jimin continued to fight as the last three of your captors still standing took turns being slammed into the dirt by his strikes. 
He was clearly capable of dispatching them, but you were fairly convinced that you would die if you had to stay away from him for another second. The ropes, however, were surprisingly thick and the angle you were cutting them at wasn’t the best. If only—
You were almost free when you saw it. 
One of your captors had pulled a hunting javelin from their supply wagon. He must have hid himself at the onset of the fight, but now he was comfortably concealed by the shadows—and taking aim at Jimin. 
Your heart dropped into your stomach. 
The attacker appeared to handle the weapon with familiarity. He was too far back—too well hidden—Jimin would never see him in time—
The last cord around your wrist snapped and you were on your feet, pushing through the combined haze of fury and sedatives to charge the wolf who dared attack your mate. 
By the time he saw you it was far too late. 
Under the effects of the drug your aim was a little skewed but you weren’t Kim Seokjin’s cousin for nothing. 
One clean flick of your wrist and the dagger shot through the air, burying itself between the brute’s shoulder blades—all the way to the hilt. 
His body fell to the ground just as Jimin sent the last of your captors careening into a pile of previously defeated foes. 
For a moment all was quiet. 
Then your eyes locked across the distance and everything around you sharpened to a single whispered word. 
“Jimin.”
He had run non-stop for miles and torn apart a dozen wolves to get to your side—no amount of space between you now was tolerable. 
The sword clattered to the forest floor as he moved toward you—desperate to feel you—to wrap himself around you and know that you were safe. 
What happened next was as natural as breathing.
You opened to him and he lifted you into his arms, taking your lips in a hot unrepentant kiss. 
Fire exploded across your senses, burning away everything but the touch and taste of him. Every part of you was at once fiercely and gloriously alive. Desperate moans passed between you as he licked into your mouth—a dark primal promise of the pleasure he would take between your thighs. 
“Alpha,” you whimpered, too delirious with want to manage anything else. 
Suddenly Jimin’s eyes shot open. His hands flew to cup your face, searching it with a mixture of realization and disbelief.
“You… It was you.”

hand in hand || bakugo x fem!reader
summary: all the top 3 students from the sports festival are required to open the socialization night for the school festival
warning: mild cursing
word count: 3392
chapters: i , ii , iii , iv , v , vii
vi
The dormitory smelled great, you noted once you got close. All the lights in the building were still turned on and you could hear music. It was so loud that you wonder how they managed to do that without getting reprimanded by Mr. Aizawa.
"Tch, the extras are making too much noise." Bakugo noticed as well, it was hard not to since the practices end late and everything around you was already so quiet.
Your classmates, who were in practice as well, met you. They take the long and well-lit path back to the dormitories because of Dark Shadow while you and Bakugo usually took the shorter path.
"I hope there is no emergency," Iida commented, making his way to the dorm.
You jogged up to him, "What's happening, class representative?"
Momo smiled at you, "We're having a simple dinner party. It will only be a few days before the festival and to celebrate our performance, we let Mina and Kaminari organize a small party." Your face brightened considerably at that.
"Will there be soba?" Todoroki asked as you walked together.
"Of course! We made sure to ask Sato to cook food for everyone." Momo answered, "We asked Mr. Aizawa for permission and he's letting us have fun until nine." She assured everyone.
"This will be fun! We'll all be having dinner together!" Ochako's excitement rubbed off on you and Hagakure. "I can't wait to see what Sato prepared!"
"Too bad though, L/N." Hagakure spoke and you looked over in her direction. "You won't be able to eat Bakugo's food tonight."
You laughed softly and shrugged, "That's fine. Bakugo needs to rest."
"Damn right. You kept on stepping on my damn foot. It has been almost four weeks, woman! Did you not learn anything?" Bakugo scolded you. To be fair, you were only stepping on his toes because you were getting the steps mixed up.
"Yeah, I learned how bad of a teacher you are!" You looked at him over your shoulder.
He had the meanest look on his face and you were not fazed. At all. "Bad teacher? You're just a trash student!" He retorted back, you can see the veins on his neck pop out.
"Not this again." Tokoyami sighed. The introverted bird boy has already had too much socialization for today, you two always made it tedious.
"What was that, bird face?"
You splashed Bakugo on the face with your quirk and he stopped. The blond boy realized that it was your doing so he transferred the irritated energy to you - not that it has been off you.
He raised his palm and you can see his energy building, "What the fu-"
"This is not the time for a fight! We have organized a party for everyone!" Iida quickly got between you and Bakugo. He could feel the impending fight between you and Bakugo from where he was walking. "Bakugo! L/N!"
"Sorry, Iida."
"Tch."
Iida nodded and went back to the front of the group. He held the door open for you all and entered last. "I hope there were no problems, Midoriya?"
"None, Iida! We even set up karaoke!" Midoriya put the mic down and smiled brightly at everyone who just arrived.
The entire room was bright and warm. Thanks to Sato's cooking, it smelled delicious too. Sero was still putting up streamers using his quirk and Aoyama made small streaks of light using his.
Mina was setting up the last of the plates and waved at the group, "Hey guys! Ready for dinner? We were just waiting for you!"
"Yes. Is it okay if we freshen up a bit?" Momo walked around, admiring your classmates' work. "This is beautiful. Everyone did a great job." She praised them.
Sato stepped out, just as a few of your classmates went back to their rooms to change. He was carrying a pretty white cake with strawberries. "I need help putting food out!"
"I can help out while they're preparing." You volunteered, walking to the kitchen and getting the plates. Todoroki stayed too, apparently, and he helped you out as well. "Can you get that big bowl of soba, Todoroki?"
"Yes. I can." He answered briefly.
You put out the plates and spotted Bakugo rearranging the plugs in the karaoke machine, "You damn nerd, can't you set this up properly?" He yelled at the green-haired boy.
Of course, Bakugo would stay. Although he was seen as very antagonistic and self-centered, the class knew how helpful he was. It was just that...he had a unique way of showing it.
"Thanks, Kacchan." Midoriya rubbed his nape.
After putting the last plates on the tables, you walk over to the two. They were testing out the karaoke, playing different songs and tinkering the volume. You slide over to the sofa, watching them in front of the tv.
"Wow Kacchan, you really know everything." You smiled wide.
"Damn Deku-" Maybe it was instinct to yell at Midoriya even when he's saying such nice things about Bakugo but he really didn't expect to turn his head and see that it came from you. "Tch, of course. I am the best." He turned his eyes back to the tv.
"Let's put on a good song!" Kirishima sat beside you on the couch. He looked fresh out of the shower and you can't help but sniff him. "L/N, stop smelling me." He chuckled, making Bakugo turn his head at you two.
Without any word, Bakugo sat in the small space between you and Kirishima. You moved back, frowning at him. "Hey! I was smelling Kiri! He smells like soap!"
Bakugo rolled his eyes and Kirishima simply laughed again.
"Wow, Kacchan is just so in love." Kaminari appeared out of nowhere, grinning teasingly at the other blond.
"In love? With who? Her? The fish brat?" Bakugo crossed his arms and leaned back on the sofa. Not even moving even when you tried to yell at him.
You rolled your eyes, "Wow, that's really creative. Did you have to use your last two brain cells for that one, blasty?"
"Just so you know, Kaminari, this is your fault." Kirishima massaged his temples. Just when the class found peace, he had to light the spark between you and Bakugo. Everyone knows it just needs a bit of nudging and you will both create a forest fire.
"That was not a no though." Jiro came downstairs with the others. This made you and Bakugo turn silent and both red in the cheeks. "That does it. Can we start eating now?"
With Iida's cue, everyone occupied the seats in the dining area. Mina pushed and pulled you down to a seat beside Bakugo, who was surprisingly still here even though it must be way past his bedtime.
Momo stood up, beaming at everybody. "Thank you for everyone's hard work. We are so happy and we are all so hopeful that our efforts made such a beautiful presentation." Her eyes moved from face to face, "Thank you so much, everyone! Enjoy the feast!"
"You are the best, Sato!" You heard Ochako say from their table. "This is amazing!"
"That's not a problem! I'm glad you like it!" Sato has always been the best cook and whenever he has time, he makes everyone's food. His fluffy pancakes are your favorite.
"Here, extra."
You were about to put down the plate of the most amazing beef stroganoff back on the table when Bakugo offered you the rice. "Oh. Hang on." You took it from him and put some on his plate. "Is this enough?"
"I can fucking do that myself!"
"...yes, but is that enough?"
He looked away, "Yeah."
Kaminari was gulping his food down and Kirishima had to nudge him with an elbow to slow down.
"You just want to pick a song first and perform." Sero laughed, taking his glass of iced tea. "Just so you know, if Mr. Aizawa stops this because you are bothering the other dormitories, we are kicking you out."
"We're gonna disinherit you, Kaminari." You teased.
"Oh ha-ha, as if you can! Who's gonna keep your secret that you like Bakugo after that huh?" You almost wanted to melt on the spot when Kaminari's tongue slipped. Everyone paused with whatever they were doing, eyes wide at what you were about to do.
Sero raised his elbow, ready to wrap his tape around Kaminari's mouth but apparently, he was not done.
"Fuck! Sorry! At least I didn't say that Bakugo like her ba-"
Kaminari's entire face got wrapped by Sero's elbow and the black-haired boy had to drag a struggling Kaminari up the stairs for spilling every single secret that was alive in the dorm.
It was quiet and you couldn't turn your eyes towards Bakugo. Everyone was avoiding eye contact too.
Bakugo liked you? Since when?
"The soba tastes great, Sato. Thank you."
Bakugo finished dinner quickly. You could hear him muttering under his breath, something about killing Kaminari.
It was only then that you were able to relax in your seat.
After Todoroki's attempt to break the ice, Midoriya started talking loudly about the fact that he was thinking about more ideas to use for the performance during the school festival. The others joined in and eventually, the awkwardness died down.
For them, at least.
Sero and Kaminari joined the table after a few minutes.
"Man, not cool." Kirishima frowned at the blond.
"Sorry!" The boy raised his hands in surrender, "I already got away from Bakugo! I don't want to fear for my life again!"
You let out a sigh, "That wasn't your secret to tell."
Kaminari nodded, looking very apologetic, "Sorry L/N. I panicked. This is why nobody should let me keep their secrets."
"Yeah, you are quite the gossip." Sero continued with the dinner he left earlier. "We were surprised Bakugo didn't kill him when we met him upstairs. We were expecting Kaminari's final moments when we saw him approaching."
Mina propped her elbow on the table and rested her chin on her hand, "Quiet Bakugo scares me more."
It scared you too.
He was still up. It wasn't because of the party because it already finished a few hours ago. It was more because of what that blabbermouth Pikachu announced during the very same dinner. As much as he wanted to kill the other blond for spilling the secret that he ordered him, Kirishima, and Sero to keep from everyone, he heard about your feelings for him too.
So...you liked me, huh?
Bakugo rose from his bed, annoyed at the incessant knocking, "I will blow your damn face off, Kirishi-" He expected the redhead to greet him with a large grin on his stupid face, wanting to talk things out, but he did not expect you, dressed in his hoodie and pajama bottoms.
"What the fuck do you want?" He crossed his arms and leaned on his doorframe.
"Can we talk?" You asked. You actually couldn't sleep and you knew that you had to settle the entire thing that happened earlier. Bakugo shook his head, offering no more words. "Oh well, do you think we should just... maybe we can practice?"
You watched as a smirk grew on Bakugo's smug face, you almost regret coming over and blurting out the worst excuse just so you can stay with him.
"Oh don't give me that, blasty. You and I know how much you want to do this better." You spat out facts, knowing him as the perfectionist. "Well, do you want to or not?" You crossed your arms in front of you, tapping your foot impatiently.
Bakugo rolled his eyes, "Fine. I don't want to embarrass myself in front of the entire school anyway." He lifted his form from the doorframe and walked back into his room. You paused, was he suggesting that you practice...here? He took his cell from his study table and glanced at you, "What? I thought you wanna practice?"
Breaking out of the sudden nervousness bubbling in your chest, you entered his room and closed the door for privacy. You thought that he really wouldn't appreciate if anyone saw you guys practicing the waltz.
You sat on his bed and looked around, taking in the details without the noise of your friends. Unlike the other rooms in the dorm, Bakugo didn't do anything special to his own space. It was a normal one, not even a personalized anything in sight. He kept his space tidy, which is why whenever you guys decide to do late-night study sessions, you choose his room. Everyone else's space was too messy for his liking.
That was one surprising thing about Katsuki Bakugo, he was tidy. It contrasted so much with his brash personality but you figured it made so much sense. He was no-nonsense, he kept his grades up, and his records clean. You saw the overachiever behind his irritating exterior and like everyone else, he just wants to be a great hero.
You hear the familiar tune wafting through the air before the boy restarted the song. He put his phone back on the table before turning to you, raising one of those annoying eyebrows prompting you to stand and face him.
As usual, Bakugo took your form in his hands. He was the type to always lead everything so from the positioning of the hands and the proximity of your bodies to the actual dance, he took charge.
That was when you started being conscious about the boy before you, leading you to the hypnotically slow waltz. You can't forget the words you heard from Kaminari earlier, making you even more nervous. He didn't tear his gaze away from you, those red irises wondering what is happening in your head as you both drowned in silence. His hands were warm and rough, unlike yours which were clammy and smooth (your quirk affects your temperature, you were almost like cold-blooded Tsuyu) and they curved on your body.
His touch was gentle which contrasted so heavily with when he would drag you by the collar or by the wrist. You've always argued with him that you were easy to bruise but he often chuckles at your attempts and tells you that you are barely even hurt by his actions which were true in a way but you wanted to tease. But right now, his touch was surprisingly soft against your unsure hand.
You followed his calculated steps. Since you two were dancing in a smaller space, you had to adjust. Bakugo was quick to lead you until you two were simply swaying, off the tune but in sync with each other. You could feel your chest rise and fall faster than normal and noted that his breathing seemed to have followed yours.
"Let's stop." You whispered, eyes flickering to his underneath your lashes.
He merely grunted but didn't let you go. Your bodies didn't stop moving, swaying on the spot. "Why?" He asked, softer than you could ever imagine his voice to get.
"... I'm getting dizzy." Was your only answer but you weren't. He knows that you weren't but he stops anyway. He let your hand go before you noticed his eyes go from meeting yours to gliding down to your lips. You didn't know why it made you nervous.
Why was facing a tamer, gentler Katsuki Balugo making you cower? You faced him in his more explosive moods, battled him head-on with his death glare piercing your head, but this soft-eyed Bakugo scared you...
No no, he didn't scare you.
He made you nervous.
"You should go, dumbass." He crossed his arms over his chest again, leaning back on the door of his veranda. His face was guarded now and you knew he already had his walls up. "It's fucking late and we have that damn quiz with Cementoss tomorrow."
You nodded, a bit offended that he was kicking you out. Although you did appreciate it all the same since you were so awkward that you didn't know what you were capable of doing.
"Yeah. See you tomorrow Bakugo." You left his room without a word.
Bakugo then took this as the cue to let out a breath, clutching his chest. He was completely unsure why he had the sudden urge to kiss you or why there was a painful tug in his heart when he let you go.
He wasn't the type to catch feelings. Although he absolutely had no experience in the love and relationship department, he was absolutely sure he wasn't the type to develop feelings for anyone. Bakugo Katsuki had one goal and one main goal only - to be the number one hero.
So you better believe he hated the way he was feeling about you.
The next morning was awkward for you and him. As per usual, Bakugo was early and was already in his seat. He was busy watching clouds, his eyebrows furrowed and his frown etched deep on his face. You quietly pull your chair back, trying to not alert him of your presence.
But after months of being seatmates, he was aware of your footsteps and how you moved. Bakugo didn't have to turn to you to see that you have indeed arrived. He chose to ignore you though even if his heart was scolding him, he has the desire to look at you and indulge in the mini pleasures of having a teasing battle with you but he held himself back.
His self-discipline is truly one of the things he took great pride in.
"Morning."
You jump from your seat when you heard Bakugo's gruff voice. Was he talking to you? You look around, seeing your other classmates mind their own businesses. So he must be talking to you.
"Uh, morning, Bakugo." You managed to say.
You hated this.
You hated the silence, the painful awkwardness between you and the explosive blond boy. He ignored you for most of the day, although he would reply to your short questions about the school. With other people, he was himself. He shot threats at those who irritated him, even came to an argument with Todoroki whom he never really saw eye to eye with.
The class noticed it, of course. Your playful and often loud banter was a normal part of everybody's day and it became a part of yours too, why was he suddenly so... nonchalant with you?
There was no dance practice for that afternoon and you found yourself helping out with the t-shirts and costumes for your class presentation. Todoroki did offer to buy the costumes with his father's credit card but you and the others didn't want him to do that. Instead, you guys made them yourselves.
Hakagure helped with the sewing and she even taught the boys how to put the outfits together.
This became quite a relaxing job for you until you had to bring over the finished t-shirts to the band to check if the sizes were right. You grumbled and went to the common area in your dorm where Jiro led the practice.
"Hey guys, can you give me a quick minute? We want to check if the shirts fit." You greeted them, the bundle of shirts on your arm. The song they were playing stopped as they went over to check the shirts out.
Jiro flatly refused to have the band wear the same costumes as the dancers so they opted for a simple orange shirt with a print. She brightened up, "This is exactly what we want. Thanks, L/N."
"We all pitched in." You actually did the manual shirt printing after watching a tutorial from YouTube. "Check and see if they fit."
Kaminari pulled the shirt above his own and smiled wide at you, "This fits great. Hey Kacchan, try yours out!" He beckoned the other blond, who was still unmoving by the drum set. Bakugo ignored you and Kaminari and left for the kitchen.
"He's really testy today." Kaminari shrugged.
"When is he not, really?" Jiro raised an eyebrow before looking at you, "Although we think it is mostly about you. Why don't you go and hand him that shirt?"
You huffed, "He is the one who has a problem with me. Why should I go?"
Momo sent you a knowing smile, "Because you're the bigger person." She gestured for you to follow Bakugo to the kitchen and you rolled your eyes.

tell me everything about your interpretations of real life locomotives
i just think they're neat
hello I am so sorry for making you wait months for an answer on this, I hope this is good!!
So I do have some locomotives from real life as part of my headcanons for TTTE characters (for example, Onslaught, Glory, and Greyhound are part of my D10 lore- and in my headcanon Diesel 10 is warship D810 “Cockade”)
But there are a few that don’t exactly relate to TTTE. I’ll be talking specifically about how I characterize them, with some links to past artwork I’ve done and any other informative links
Santa Fe 2926 (or “Santi”)
(2926 is the only one I’ve given a name that’s different from its running number so far, since shes the only one ive officially made into an OC)
Santi had a very short working life when she was still in service, and spent decades as a static display in a park. Oddly enough, shes not so grouchy as most display engines tend to become. I like to think she was in limbo for the most part while on display, kind of like Duke being buried in the shed. (Or like Captain America getting frozen for 75 years) When she woke up during the beginning of her restoration in the early 2000s, she was unaware of how much time had passed- which was very disorienting. Fortunately she’s had the restoration team catch her up on the last 60 years of human history.
Santi as of writing this post hasn’t been on any excursions yet as far as I know, and is still cooped up in the yard. I think she keeps an audio log of how she’s slowly going crazy in there.
Tumblr media
“Day 325 - the restoration team fixed my whistle! Its a shame I have no one of my own kind to scream at with it!”
I think Santi and R&N 2102 are pen pals. preserved 4-8-4 besties for life ❤️🚂
they narrate what they want written out loud to their engineers, they both sign off with 0000-00000000-0000, their shared wheel arrangement in text.

Denver and Rio Grande K36s
Tumblr media
(I want to give them names, and they’d probably all start with the same letter)
9 out of 10 of the K36s are preserved, the 5th one got scrapped. In reality, the group is split across the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad and the Durango & Silverton, but for the sake of this interpretation they’re all together
I found out about the K36s through a video by History in the Dark, he has a series of videos of “10 of the best trains ever”. I cant find the exact episode :(
Imagine the Dieseasel but there’s NINE of bill and ben instead of two. Though they aren’t as mischievous, they’re definitely just as irritating. They’re sort of a strange hive mind of little engines, akin to Ariel’s sisters in the Little Mermaid. Any time something spectacular happens on their railway, they find some way to spiritually communicate the happening to dear #485, their sibling who fell in a turntable and had to be scrapped- her damage was too severe. Though 485 was very much like the rest of them, she sort of becomes their saint- who they leave offerings of coal and water for in her old shed berth like its a medieval icon. Any time one of them misbehaves, one of their siblings is sure to tell them that 485 would be ashamed and she is not smiling on them right now.
Although this strays from their real life history quite a bit (and their gauge, which is 3ft), I think it would be hilarious if Thomas met them in a RWS-ified BWBA. He comes to their little railway and they all go front over wheels about their strange visitor. I also think the dynamic between them would be interesting, since the K36s are 9 out of their original 10, and Thomas is 1 out of the original 10 E2s. However, It’d probably take a while to get to that point in conversation with how supremely creeped out Thomas is by the K36s slightly cultish practices
Also, they’d probably chase him out of their little railway with pitchforks and acetylene torches if he brought up anything about turntables. They’re a bit of a touchy subject .

NKP 765
Tumblr media
the 765 isn’t hard to find videos of XD Since shes the pride of the Nickel Plate Road and not converted to burn oil like lots of other large preserved engines, she takes pride in her unique status. I like to think she has the attitude of a great aunt or grandma with a gritty sense of humor and a laugh that could shake the walls. She does get puffed up in the smokebox, though, and has a hard time admitting she’s wrong. She has a bit of a parental relationship with the diesels on her railway, some of whom call her “granny”, and other endearments relating to her age.

New Zealand V Class
Tumblr media
in a very different vein than everyone else, the V class all met the absolutely horrifying fate of being BURIED IN MUD
in my interpretation of them, The V Class have all become eldritch horror abominations, and local engines have kept their ghost stories alive and well. (usually taking the form of wayward vengeful spectres that like to make themselves known in uncomfortable places)
I had an idea where the V class emerges as one giant metal monster festooned with river sediment and garbage and terrorizes the locals but I don’t know enough about New Zealand or its railways to make an effective story.
