#still has its tension and deffo has its moments

[sophieseals]

To me Kripe maybe intentionally or unintentionally running the boys in a similar way he ran S1-S5 of supernatural.

Stay with me but I said something to my friend about halfway through season 4 of the boys when people were feeling lukewarm about this season and, my theory was that this season is simply a two parter. As in season 4 is the part 1 and season 5 is the part 2. I think the majority agree where season 4 is still top quality and has its shining moments everything just felt tighter and shinier plot wise in season 3 and it reminded me of supernatural.

Now what happened with spn S3 was a mistake like a happy accident one of the best seasons came out from an awful set of circumstances which resulted in the writers strike and had the episodes be strictly reduced. Therefore Deans demon deal literally felt like a ticking time bomb because it literally was and him getting sent to hell early worked out very well with the set of episodes cut. The boys S3 hasn’t worked out obviously exactly like that but was also as strong and even stronger than Spn S3. But S4 of Spn is from my opinion not as strong as S3. Still good but it’s more of a season of set ups for the final conflict in S5. Obviously still has its own original plot lines that end but a lot continue. And that’s what I expected halfway from S4 of the boys.

I saw a lot of people complaining that it wasn’t as tighter plot wise season 3 and things came out of the blue, how were they going to wrap this all up and the answer is they can’t. But they’re not meant to. Like season 4 of Spn this is a two parter and the season 4 finale of the boys especially during the last five minutes solidified that. So if that means anything and we have Spn season 5 to look at as a very rough precursor for the season 5 of the Boys, this could become one of the best finales of a show yet.

HOLY SHIT I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO SEE THE NEW SPIDERVERSE MOVIE TODAY AND GAH DAMN

Here's a penny for my thoughts:

The animation team continues to impress me with the animation and in this movie more so than the first cause of how they made each universe feel

THAT OPENING (love me ambiguous openings where you slowly piece it as it continues)

Spot = traumatized silly guy turned into very dangerous traumatized guy

We all thought pavitr would be ✨TRAUMATIZED✨ but I'm so glad miles was able to help him save both (maybe he is traumatized if his universe is destroyed but let's hope not since he's so blorbo)

Love his silliness with his whole introduction introduction the romantic tension comments and "Oh he doesn't know about hobie" like a whole romantic drama is about to play out

I thought I was gonna hate hobie with how much police he was talking but I grew to be amused and fond of him (the true mvp)

Idk if this is controversial or not but even though miguel o'hara is traumatized I still don't like him (if it's not clear I hate it when people try to be "the system". Looking at you light yagami)

THE COLOR THEORY ON THIS 👏✨🙌

Like the color shifts in gwen's universe and the inverted colors on the scenes of earth 42 and gwen's universe is another on point moment

There is so much more that I can't possibly mention of the top of my head at the moment but all the visual symbolism (not just in color) is *muah*

PARALLELS (that's all I have to say)

MAYDAY 💞 is. so. ADORABLE AND CHAOTIC.

I love peter b. parker having a child cause he liked the idea of raising his child to be like miles... cause he's a good person

Also peter b. parker is SUCH a father figure towards miles

Speaking of miles THEY REALLY CANT LEAVE THE POOR BOY ALONE WTF (give him a break man)

The humour in this movie. PEAK. (Idgaf what you say)

I love all the cameos and references of the many spiders and will deffo pick apart every scene once I can get my hands on the full length movie on my pc

They make every spiderperson's attack feel unique and get creative with techniques and styles

I love the 2d-3d look it has as always

I love miles' parents and its nice to see gwen reconcile with her dad

GOOD OLD PARKER TRAUMA

EARTH 42. ITS ALL CONNECTED. THAT REVEAL WOAA.

I'm glad they brought back the old spiders that miles first met into the squad

GOD DAMN THE CLIFFHANGER

i LOVE all the details in this movie

I also love the theme and characterization

[greenorangevioletgrass]

thots as i listen (perfectly timed as my bf left for a family thing this weekend and i can freely relive my past doomed relationship hahah):

fortnight: ahhh yes. the span of my 5-year relationship fizzling out on two different islands. bliss. what about your quiet treason??? sdkjfhksjdhf

ttpd: "you're not dylan thomas, im not patti smith / this ain't the chelsea hotel, we're modern idiots" is so real bc i WAS obsessed with patti smith and we did take ourselves (and our art, bleargh) too seriously)

my boy only breaks his favorite toys: ehehehe the "long story short" melodic parallel in the chorus. the way she plays it off like he's a fucking child, but "once i fix me, he's gonna miss me"??? FUCK OFF STOP READING MY LIFE STORY TAYLOR?? i started crying here bye

down bad: no bc the matty parralel with Z is INSANE. like how did i feel emptier than i thought i did? HOW DARE YOU THINK IT'S ROMANTIC LEAVING ME SAFE AND STRANDED? is a mood and a half.

so long london: THAT INTRO! AAAAHHH! can't say no to some good vocal layers. this is giving very early days lana del rey? trust in aaron dessner for tracks like these. and that bridge?? fuck me.

but daddy i love him: country vibes! the chorus feels like a mouthful, though? bahahahahah "i'm having his baby / no i'm not but you should've seen your faces" again, the bridge is bridging!

fresh out the slammer: oop i hear a hint of "long live"? the friends seeing the red flags way before she did 🤡 whoa, the OUTRO??? we're winding down! BUT ITS GONNA BE ALRIGHT, I DID MY TIME 🥺

florida!!!: the three exclamation marks is called for, that's for sure!!! oh my god, this is probably my favorite track so far.

guilty as sin?: im loving the use of intros and outros here in this album. this is beautiful, but i also feel like throwing up thinking the long, stretched-out tension z and i had before we finally hooked up? "am i allowed to cry" for this song is sooo perfect.

who's afraid of little old me: this is very much giving lana del rey's early stuff?? i love this. i was a MESS here considering all the shitstorm i went through in that island and coming back from it. "you caged me and then you called me crazy" ha!

i can fix him: pls more bluegrassy, americana shit like this 🙏🙏 also stopppp bc this is exactly the kind of music D plays and i was convinced i can fix him lmaoooo

loml: "still alive, killing time at the cemetery / never quite buried" AND THE REAL KICKER IS I SPENT THAT WHOLE FIRST WEEK IN A BURIAL GROUND AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH 😭😭

i can do it with a broken heart: THE MASTERMIND LOOP PARALLEL!!!!! what in the jack antonoff??? deffo an addition to the tour setlist im willing to bet my left NUT

the smallest man who ever lived: i just know it's aaron dessner producing right away lol. bruh she went for the THROAT here. (also it's a running joke now that D is short af lmao) THE THIRD VERSE??? it feels like going off on a tangent, but maybe that's the point?

the alchemy: fuck yeaaah! it's giving slow-motion, big moment ending of a movie scene. maybe a hint of "suburban legends"? god i can't wait to see this song performed live!

clara bow: the childlike optimism here... i'm bawling my eyes out.

the black dog: ...no words. im just crying. i remember this all to well hah.

imgonnagetyouback: heh "gold rush" parallel. this one makes me smile. reminds me of long aimless drives and tumbling into our hotel bed, not knowing what we are.

the albatross: im humming "ivy" as i listen lol. holy fuck dude, side B is slowly segueing into my current relationship--or the start of it 😬 mom pick me up im scared

chloe or sam or sophia or marcus: nope we're back to D hahahah. MAROON REFERENCE!!

how did it end: this is the face i made throughout this song 🙂🙂🙂 this is fine i'm fine

so high school: i'm surprised aaron took this on, but then again i shouldn't presume? OH WAIT yeah i get it. another happy song! ahhh! GET MY CAR DOOR SDKJFHSKDJHF i never touched a single car door when im with my bf this past year and a half lmao. it's giving "long live" and im mad cheesin!

i hate it here: ohhh it's giving laura marling! I CAN RELATE!!!

thanK you aIMee: holy shit, it just dawned on me... did i have a reputation era late 2022?? but anyway. i like this! this one is for the girlies healing ✌

i look in people's windows: guys im so INSPIRED right now i need to pick up my pen and paper after this. it's giving "death by a thousand cuts" ish??

the prophecy: toit chorus??? love. im generally loving the B-side tracks more now that i think about it...

cassandra: this is too fucking close imma throw up bye

peter: 3/4 time is always soooo dreamy ✨ and so heartbreaking! it's giving a mellowed out, more contemplative "i bet you think about me".

the bolter: again, very lana!! off to the races! good vibes.

robin: this felt like a hug 🥺���� im crying but what's new.

the manuscript: i am sobbing. this is the perfect closing track. "now and then i reread the manuscript / but the story isn't mine anymore" taylor you genius and i thank you for this.

regardless of who ttpd is about, im gonna listen to it for the first time as a girl who was in a delulu-ridden relationship for nearly 5 years and then had an epic breakup at a big step of my career, then fucked around with a questionable rebound guy, before finally finding myself a kind and beautiful man who i love and loves me and treats me the way i deserve to be treated 🫶

NSFW Alphabet with Erron Black.

Going to warn you guys, this isn’t going to be the best! I’ve tried to capture Erron and hope I have done! Hope you enjoy. This is probably mid-tier trash.  Warnings; Smut, NSFW, mentions of potential blood. 18+ 18+ under the cut.  GIF does not belong to me. 

A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex) This will depend on what stage you’ve unlocked with him. If you’re just fuck buddies, then chances are he can come across pretty cold and distant. He’ll still make sure you’re okay and do basic aftercare, his mama raised him to be a gentlemen, so he’s not going to be a major dick afterwards. But don’t expect him to hang around and/or be cuddly. That ain’t his jam, he has places to be and coin to earn. If you’re dating, he’ll be a lot softer, slightly cuddlier and a bit more of a gentlemen. He will try not to race off and leave, but it will all depend on his schedule. Busy man with a busy schedule at times. But, he will make excuses and turn down jobs to spend more time with you. B = Body part (Their favourite body part of theirs and also their partner’s) He’s deffo a chest kind of guy. Doesn’t matter about the size or anything like that. He’s a sucker for your chest, loves to leave marks and bites on them. Leading on from liking your chest, he’ll be a sucker for your collarbones too. He loves marking them up and has no shame in others knowing you’ve fucked.   His favourite body part on himself would be his hands and fingers. What that trigger finger do? Lots of use makes them a bit rough, but no complaints, because he 110% knows what he’s doing with them. Kind of brags about how good he is with them. Both in a Kombat sense and a sexual one. C = Cum (Anything to do with cum basically… I’m a disgusting person) Loves to make a mess. The messier the better. Gentlemen in the streets, animal in the sheets. I can’t believe I typed that. He has a thing for cumming on your chest and face though. Your chest is for the above reason, because he’s a sucker for it. But as for your face, he loves to watch it drip down your chin and onto your chest. He is pure filth, but you love it. D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs) He has two. First one; He kind of likes being dominated by you. He’s a sucker for a woman who isn’t afraid of taking charge. Like tie him to the bed, ride him and pretend to use him. He’s totally down for that. He won’t admit it because it’s not a very masculine thing to want. That, and if Kano or Kabal found out, he would not hear the end of it. You know that Throne that Kotal sits on? Would not mind having you suck him off whilst he’s sat in it. He doesn’t want to rule fuck all, he just wants to have you give him head whilst he’s sprawled on it. It’s potential as an insane fuck location is being squandered, by being used to house the royal arse and used for professional business only.   E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?) Yeah, he’s experienced. I mean, he’s been in outworld for like over 150 years, not to be gross. But he’s probably had more than his fair share of experience during those years and beforehand. Plus, he was in the Black Dragon for a period of that time. So, it’s pretty self-explanatory. He knows what he’s doing however. He could have you a screaming, moaning and begging mess within minutes.  Always with a smug smile on his face. F = Favourite Position (This goes without saying. Will probably include a visual) Depends on if he’s in more of a sub or dom mood. If he’s in a Sub he’ll love you on top, fucking him hard and fast, your hands clawing at his chest whilst you’re trying to hold on. If he’s in a dom mood, he’d be a sucker for your, laid on your back with your legs spread wide for him. It’d give him good access to you, as well as being able to look at your face, looking at how much pleasure you’re experiencing. G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc) He has his serious moments and his less-serious moments. If you’re casually hooking up, he’ll more likely be goofier, more laid back and less intimate. He won’t make proper jokes and go out of his way to make you laugh however. He’ll just say some stuff, or maybe laugh a little with some the teasing talk you say. More of a breathless laugh than a taking the piss laugh. H = Hair (How well-groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.) Surprisingly is groomed. He thinks himself a bit of a lady’s man, so he knows what most women like/care about. He knows no-one is going to give him head, if its just a mess down there. It ain’t cute or pretty. So, he takes your opinion into account. Don’t get me wrong, its not like manscaped, because he doesn’t do that, but fairly groomed. I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect…)  He's not intimate if you’re just fuck buddies. It’s strictly buissness almost. You guys are just getting rid of some sexual tension. It’s nothing intimate and romantic, purely just some sinful fucking and nothing more. If you’re dating he can be more romantic, he can sweet talk you if you want and be all gentle and soft if it’s what you want. He’ll reserve being extremely romantic for maybe something like Valentines Day (He is a bit of a softy for that sort of shit) anniversaries etc. No matter the situation, he’ll make you feel fucking divine and perfect. J = Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon) No shame in him admitting he does it. Sometimes there’s just a need for it. Even if you’re having regular sex, you can’t be with him all the time, for example when he’s on jobs away. He’ll always admit that you’re the thing he thinks about the most. K = Kink (One or more of their kinks) I have two Headcanons for this. The first is he is a big ol’ switch. Doesn’t mind domming and doesn’t mind subbing. He’s easy going and will go with your preferences. When he’s more dominates, he’d be a sucker for collaring you. When he’s a sub, he wouldn’t mind being tied up, gagged and potentially degraded. Squick warning for this one, it stems from the reveal that he had a thing with both Nitara and Skarlet. He’d maybe have a small blood kink. Mainly you biting him so hard it draws blood kind of thing. This is just my opinion stemming from his intros in 11. If you aren’t into it, you aren’t into it. He isn’t going to pressure you into any of his kinks. L = Location (Favourite places to do the do) Is not fussy where you fuck. He’s not just limited to the bedroom and gets off on the adrenaline of being caught. Type of person to fuck you in the Palace Gardens, in the dining hall when nobody is around. Hell, he’d even fuck you on Kotal’s throne. He has a thing for outdoor sex, like fucking the dust and sand. Reminds him of home a little, very sentimental. M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going) You being powerful gets him going. Just being strong-willed and not afraid to talk back and stand up for yourself. He sees it as a challenge almost. He also would get off on teasing, maybe you flashing a smile, running a hand up his thigh, all during meetings/talks. Dirty talk as well. He’ll love it if you have a filthy mouth. He has a way with words too, and he has the skill to back it up. Would get slightly turned on if you called him ‘Daddy’ He’s such a fucking sucker for it. If you ever decided to strip for him too, that would be something that would turn him on something fierce. He’s a sucker for someone who doesn’t mind being a bit filthy and open. Once got turned on seeing you in his hat and nothing but his hat. He once got hard and had to fuck you on the spot, when he taught you to shoot. Something about you handling his gun so carefully and listening to him. N = NO (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs) Please don’t try and speak like him. It really does not do anything for him. Makes him cringe a little on the inside. Also, doesn’t like bratiness or anything of that sort. Do not compare him to others to make him jealous. Or don’t make him feel jealous in anyway. He’d be down for a threesome if you were fuck buddies, but if you’re dating, he wouldn’t want to share. Even if you were fuck buddies, he’d still feel a little jealous. But no. Don’t be degrading him and comparing him to some other man. He isn’t into being cucked. O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc) The man is experienced and skilled in both giving and receiving. He does prefer to give though, which all stems back to him being a switch. Nothing better than having you clawing at the sheets, head thrown back and moaning his name loudly. He’ll fucking tease as well. You want him to finish you off? You’re going to have to be good and do as he says. When he’s in a more submissive mood, he’d love it if you just sat on his face, he’s such a sucker for it. Feeling your legs around his face, watching as you moan and writhe. God it gets him off. So, him preferring to give rather than receive works for him. However, he does love receiving don’t get me wrong. ‘You gonna suck daddy’s cock sugar?’ Is a phrase he uses often when he’s receiving. P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.) Whilst he’s not against slow and sensual when you’re dating. He does prefer fast and rough. It just works out for him. Doesn’t matter if he’s rough with you or if you’re rough with him. It’s just his preference. His life is always fast lived and pretty fast, so it’s just how he prefers sex. Who knows when he’ll have to leave? Best to make the most of it. He can be soft and sensual; however, this is a side you’d see if you’re dating him and its serious. He’ll sometimes love to take his time with working you up, having you beg for him and leaving you a panting mess. It’s rare he’ll get to spend a lot of time with you, so this is a rare occurrence. However, he does love it and wishes he could do it more often. Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.) Leading on from the above, he’s more into quickies than proper sex, because it’s all he can manage most of the time. If you’re fuck buddies, then quick and dirty sex is always on the cards. Is nothing serious, so its just you two venting emotions and just getting a release. So, there’s no need for proper, intimate sex. If you’re dating, the quickies are still happening, because it’s all he can manage at times because schedule. He’ll make it more intimate and try and take it slower, trying to savour every moment of your body against his. Does like proper sex but he’s so used to quickies now they have become his preference. R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.) He’s always game to experiment and take risks. The thought of getting caught fucking you would get him going. He’s down to try new positions, new locations and even new kinks. If you’re down to explore he’ll be right there with you. He’s lived a long life full of exploration, he knows what works for him and wants to explore yours with you. What a gentlemen. S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last…) He can last a fair bit. If he had his way he’d spend a whole day fucking you in bed, trying to see how many rounds you could get in. This has yet to happen, because he’s kept busy these days. So, he manages one quick round, not because of his stamina but more his schedule. T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?) He doesn’t own any, but he would be down for them to be used. Both on you and himself. All you gotta do is ask and he’ll oblige. Anything for you. Sees them as pleasure enhancing rather than a replacement. U = Unfair (how much they like to tease) Ultimate tease. He loves to tease you, whether it be him flirting constantly with you, or him pinning you against a surface, whispering filth in your ear and then leaving you hanging. Legs like jelly and your mind dwelling on his words. He fucking lives for it. You have a job to do? He’s going to wrap his arms around you, whisper about how amazing you look and how hard he is for you; before getting up and leaving you hanging all day. Absence makes the heart grow fonder and you grow hornier. V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make) He’s got more of a hushed tone rather than a loud one. It’s more sinful, breathless words, rather than just one loud resounding groan. He’ll be breathlessly panting his pet-name for you, hands tangled in your hair, or roaming down your back. He moans a little and has the occasional grunt. But it’s all well-controlled. W = Wild Card (Get a random headcanon for the character of your choice) SFW; He has so many pet-names for you. Sugar, Sweetheart, Doll, Darlin, Babe. You are amazed at the names he has for you. He does prefer sugar though, and its his go to one. His voice can be so soothing and soft when he wants. At night he’ll stroke your hair, call you your pet-name and kiss your forehead. He’ll like to talk about settling down with you, this is obviously after you’ve been dating a while. He can see a future with you, which is something he never thought was on the table for him. NSFW; Has had threesomes before and would be down for having one (Male or female partner, doesn’t matter) if you were fuckbuddies only. If you’re dating, he can and will get Jealous and isn’t the type of guy to share what he loves. Whether it be his guns, money or you. Hell no he ain’t doing that. You’re his, he knows he’s better than the other person, but he ain’t a fan of sharing. He trusts you, he just doesn’t want to give the other poor sap hope that their worthy of you. Because they aren’t. X = X-Ray (Let’s see what’s going on in those pants, picture or words) On the larger side of things, probably pushing 6’3. Knows exactly what he’s doing with it and can have you a moaning mess with ease. Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?) Its higher than he’d like to admit. He would love to fuck at least once every day, but his schedule permitting means that need is not meant. Leading to some sinful solo masturbation. Wishing it was you instead. Z = ZZZ (… how quickly they fall asleep afterwards) He falls asleep very easily, he’s knackered and loves his shut eye. He’ll make sure everything is fine and dandy. You’re comfortable, clean up is done and everything is right before falling asleep. He loves to spoon you though. Prepare to have an arm either draped over you or him full on spooning you. Just don’t go blabbing about it, he’s got a reputation to maintain.

Top 5 karamel moments, gooo

OH MY GOOOOD OKAY 

Couch Scene -- OHHHH GOD the couch scene ugh UG H yes it was so perfect, ok, when he tells her he wants to help her keep the world spinning and it was so perfect in terms of the dose of romance, it was just there, like a suggestion, and you can FEEL the tension and its literally the slice of life i needed 

the monopoly scene -- like that was just so sweet, it had the innocence of kara not quite knowing yet but suspecting, and it was just so -- so harmless, i loved it

sad!couch scene, as in when mon el comes in and kara’s crying and they just... they just cuddle. That means so much more to me. You can tell their relationship isn’t a physical “wow we have this tension between us” but they sOOO genuinely care for each other. my dead fucking heart actually pounded when she nuzzled her face into his neck ok, like its SO intimate and there’s so much more... trust? there? to me? like its deffo the ace talking but physicality is one thing, but to trust him to see her at her lowest, to be that close, to acknowledge the comfort that’s his arms... ugh. u gh 

COMETS. LITERALLY FUCK ME UP OK he was all ur eyes like comets and melissa is STUNNING and everything about it was so beautiful, owning up to his somewhat problematic reason to being a superhero but then being like “it ok lets still be partners” and im like heckie yes thankz

ok this one is so hard bc i love them all but honestly, h o n e s t l y, I think it has to be the last scene of 2x07 when mon el is just sitting there and sees her, just sees her, is a dork and asks about mating and latching, but he just... looks at her. and she looks at him. and she smiles, in this super natural way that doesn’t seem scripted like the same way you’d make eyecontact with anyone across the room and he just... he just can’t help but to smile. both of them. and it’s such a GENUINE moment and I was like wow yet again my dead heart stirs 

[babygirlbites]

MH (JW) - The Ice-Man and the Lion Girl 2/?

Part one

I honestly don't know how many parts of this there will be but deffo at least 3?? keep giving me ideas in my asks (for anything, not just this)

I also want to say a HUGE thank you for all the support part one got; thats insane to me you're all crazy and thank you too all the new followers too! Much love guys

“Mycroft; its been two weeks!” Mycroft shuffled his feet uncomfortably, scuffing the shiny, laminated floor of his office as he cowered just inside the doorway.

“Thats only a fortnight-”

“Don't you smart talk me young man! fourteen days you made me and your father worry over you for, not a second thought thrown our way!”

Mrs Holmes was on a role, her condescending tone giving Mycroft major war flashbacks to his youth. In truth; of course he knew stunts like this were unkind to his loved ones, his family. This was his brothers department, not his own, Mycroft himself had always managed to stay in touch with his parents some way or enough whether it was between interviews (or roastings) with world leaders or spin class - Mycroft was known for being reachable and his family had been no exception to this. 

“You're sulking aren't you?!” 

“Mummy, im not sulking”

Mrs holmes turns to Mr holmes and mummers, as if they aren't in the same room, “ He's sulking, darling”

Truth be told, Mycroft was sulking, but not because of his parents. The man was fast approaching middle age, he had a career that thrived and more money than you could shake a hat at, but he knew this wasn't enough for him parents (or himself). Mrs Holmes had never kept it a secret that she wanted grandchildren and Mycroft had even heard his father rejoice at the idea of tutoring a young boy in the arts of football. 

Mycrofts memory was scarred by the event he interrupted one year ago; walking in on his parents cooing over One Born Every Minute.

And although child labour wasn't exactly Mycrofts scene; even as a child he had always just assumed he would marry and settle down. After all, that was the natural order of things - grow old, marry, have a few children and raise them. In action, life was much more complex than that, much scarier and much more exciting, but he still hadn't given up on that idea of a white picket fence. 

“My, Is it okay if i clock off ear- Hello”

The rooms tension shifts as the Holmes’ heads all snap round to the door, Where Y/N stands, hair slightly ruffled and cheeks rosy. 

“Y/L/N, whatever’s the matter” Mycroft studies back to the door, grabbing ahold of your shoulder, attempting to steadying you, but your attention is already on the two guests in the room. 

“Mycroft, introduce us too your friend” Mycroft holds back his scowl at his mothers implying tone - clearly her years of trying to set him up with a ‘lady friend’ had tampered with her vision enough for her to not notice the fact that you were clearly working for him. 

“Y/N, Y/N Y/L/N” Mycroft watches you make a swift movement to shake her hand, but Mrs Holmes has already grabbed you into a less-motherly-more-bear-like embrace, winking at him over your shoulder. 

“Oh its really wonderful too meet you, Y/N, Mycroft never does tell us anything of his associates!” Mr Holmes is also up, giving your bewildered self a firm handshake. 

Silence takes over the room, and his mother shoots him an expecting glare.

“Y/N, meet my parents” Mycroft huffs, half heartedly. 

“lovely to meet you Mr and Mrs Holmes”

“Oh please darling, call us-”

Mycroft sees this as his time to interject; squeezing your shoulder, he turns fully towards you,

“Y/N, whats the issue?”

You struggle to regain your wits, not an easy ask as the warmth from under his hand is very apparent to your brain at this moment. 

“Its Stevie, his teacher was just on the phone, he was in a fight again-”

“And you need to go and collect him” Mycroft gathers, causing you to sheepishly nod.

Your brothers challenging antics were not exactly new, but had become more frequent in the past few weeks. 

“Go” Mycroft gestures to the way our, nudging you slightly before removing his hand from your shoulder. 

After a smile of appreciation you whirl around, breaking into a swift jog as you pass through the corridor. 

��And don't you dare run in those heels!” Mycroft scolds after you, before closing the door and  returns to his parents, to find his mother and father exchanging a rather large knowing grin. His dismisses them, sitting at his desk and throwing open a folder of some classified information or another. 

“Id like it if you left now” He comments. To his surprise , his parents oblige, but not before his mother gets in the last word, 

“We are having a get together next Friday, we expect to see you and your girlfriend sat at our dinner table”, before he can correct her, they have left.
