In which you’re sam’s sister and bucky definitely has a crush on you.

this is my first piece for bucky, so i’m super excited and hope you like it!!! smut and fluff :D feedback is welcome as always. enjoy! <3

You loved being home.

After the blip happened and it felt like nothing was right anymore, you and sarah became closer than ever. You, sam and sarah have always been close. You’re those sort of siblings. You and sarah would sneak out together, top and tail on the boat and most importantly take absolute shit about your brother sam. But he did it right back.

Your parents raised you well.

The blip happened and sarah felt all alone. Actually, she was all alone except for her two boys. You got the first plane back home and immediately became like the boys’ second mom. You’re the cool aunt. The good cop. The boys absolutely adore you, the same way they adore sam. They just don’t see him as much as you and sarah would like. It’s not his fault, he’s off being a superhero or whatever.

You’re still not completely sure what he does. Flying? Fighting? Putting away bad guys? Who knows. And honestly, now, you’re past the point of caring.

Sam came home, said he’d take care do stuff and then he upped and left again. But it’s superhero stuff, sarah said. To cut him some slack. So that’s exactly what you’re trying to do now as you watch sam absolutely destroy the boat. You’re over with a clipboard, helping sarah tick things off, double checking everywhere is where they’re supposed to be. Sam is meant to be fixing up the boat, so you can sell it.

Not that you want to.

But he’s definitely making it worse.

A tall, brunette man comes over to your brother, helping and teaching how to mend that specific part of the boat. You bit your lip looking at the way the brunettes muscles bulged and the way his veins popped.

Veins? Seriously? You’re really finding vein attractive right now. You can tell that sam and the mysterious man are somewhat friendly, but you can almost feel the tension and you’re a good bit away from them.

“Y/N?” Sarah called again, getting fed up. You were too distracted looking at the hunk fixing the boat. Sarah followed your eyeline and then understood why you were distracted. She hummed and put down the cup in her hand, dragging you along the pier to the boat. You didn’t even register what was happened until halfway there.

“Sarah, what are you doing?” You asked shaking her hand, sarah just giggled shaking her head. You deserved this. Sarah wasn’t going to let you talk yourself out of this one, not for her or the boys. You always did this and although sarah appreciated you not bringing random people back home, she wouldn’t mind you going out and finding some new friends. Sarah always feared that she was holding you back, especially after the blip.

“I’m helping you out” She whispered as you both came into view of the boys. Sam saw the look on sarah’s face first. Oh shit, he thought. Sarah didn’t know when to stop meddling or when was the right time to do shit like this. Sam was not going to let either of his sister go out with bucky barnes.

Not happening.

Bucky hadn’t seen a woman more beautiful then you before. Your hair is natural, curly but you suited it. It went right around your round face ending at your shoulders. Your eyes are blue and bright, nothing like Sams. But Bucky can tell your all siblings from your cheeks, they’re like apples.

Sam looked at Bucky and saw him looking you up and down, Sarah was trying to be discreet so were you and maybe sam would’ve fell for it, if you and Bucky weren’t eye fucking each other.

“I’m sarah” Sarah said, giving bucky a welcoming smile. Bucky smiled back nodding his head, and then looked to you. You placed one hand on your hip and the other hand was still holding onto the clipboard.

“Y/N” You said smiling at him, more flirtatious. Bucky bit his lip and leaned against the boat machinery.

“Bucky” He replied quickly, sam looked over at sarah and then the two. He couldn’t help but roll his eyes. You tutted at sam, before sarah pulled you away from the two boys. You both giggled all the way back to your ‘station’.

Sam looked at bucky, as bucky watched you walk away. The sway in your hips even made him hard.

“Do not flirt with my sister” Sam said and bucky rolled his eyes.

“Of course”

Bucky walked off, leaving sam to stand there and try to piece together what just happened. You and bucky? His sister and the winter soldier?

Not fucking happening.

You and sarah arrived home, the boys came home about an hour later. The neighbourhood always helps out with schools runs and just looking after the boys, you and sarah always make sure to do the same. Some of these people helped raise you and your siblings. It’s the least you guys could do.

“You have any homework?” You asked, placing a hand on your nephews head. He shook his head and continued to eat.

You loved those boys to death. You’d do anything for them.

After helping with dinner and helping the boys get ready for bed, you decide that maybe heading to bed early would be nice. You haven’t been getting much sleep lately, not with sam out with those dangerous flag smashers. Something about them doesn’t sit right with you. But you understand that sam has a job to do, you’ll just have to get over it.

“I’m heading to bed” Sam said, poking his head inside your room. You were laying on top of your bed, comfy clothes on. You smiled and got up, going to hug your brother.

“I missed you” You said and sam sighed holding you tighter. “You know i always miss you more” Sam teased kissing your forehead.

“My friend, from the boat, bucky is staying over just for tonight. If you go down, make him feel welcome. not too welcome though” Sam warned, pulling back from the hug and pointing his index finger at you. You shrugged and leaned against the wall.

“Can’t promise anything, Sammy” You said and Sam rolled his eyes, before walking off to his room mumbling some gibberish. Probably annoyed at the comment you made. His friend is hot, and you can just tell from looking at him that he has a big dick.

Bucky barnes has bde. Big dick energy. There’s no denying that.

You walk over to your bed and curse yourself when you see there’s no water on your bedside table. It takes you even longer to sleep without a nice glass of cold water, you don’t know why but it’s been like that since you were a child.

That means you have to go down and see bucky.

You have no idea why you’re so nervous. Well, you do, he’s hot. But he’s sam friend. But he’s hot.

You contemplate for a good five minutes, before deciding that you’ll get your drink. This is your house and you’re both adults. You can do this, say hi, get your drink and then go to bed. It’s easy enough.

You open your door and make your way down to the kitchen, to get to the kitchen you have to walk through the living room. Where bucky is.

He probably doesn’t even remember your name, relax you told yourself. You opened the living room door and was met with a wide awake bucky. He was still clothed (thank god), laying on his back watching tv. He looked up immediately when he saw you.

“Did i wake you, i’m sorry” He apologised sitting up trying to find the remote.

“No, no i was just coming down to get a drink” You said, cursing yourself at how shaking your voice was. Bucky definitely heard the tumble in your words, he smirked to himself.

You grew a little more confident with that. As you walked into the kitchen, you swayed yours hips a bit more and bent down to get a glass. You made sure bucky could see. You heard him groan under his breath. Fuck, he sounds so good.

“Can i sit?” You asked and bucky nodded quickly, moving over on the couch. He was watching some stupid drama show, you could tell he really didn’t understand it. It was endearing to say the least.

“I-“

“So-“

You both laughed, you looked down at your water.

“So, are you and sam close?” Bucky asked and you nodded. “Yeah, all of us are. We were definitely those siblings” You said and bucky nodded.

“Were?” He asked and you shrugged, looking down at your water again. “Sams a superhero. He’s got more important things to do. Sarah and i stayed close, but sam just drifted. But we’re getting better again” You said, and bucky nodded kind of understanding. It was the same with him and steve when they met again. They drifted, but they put in the work.

But then steve left.

“How are things with you?” You asked and bucky sighed.

You knew you weren’t going to get an honest answer, so you didn’t push when he didn’t answer.

A few minutes passed, no one talked. And then, bucky looked over at you. You were looking at the tv, laughing softly. Your eyes lit up and your smile was huge.

“You’re beautiful” Bucky whispered and you looked over at him, eyes widened. “So are you” You whispered moving closer to him. Bucky took the water out of your hand and placed it on the floor, before looking back up at you.

“Can i kiss you?” He asked and you whimpered nodding your head. “Please” You said and bucky, crashed his lips into yours. You moaned quietly, trying not to attract any unwanted attention. His lips are soft, warm and inviting. You never want to stop kissing him.

He pecks your lip, moving so he could take your shirt off. You were bare, your tits out and bucky couldn’t keep his eyes off of them.

“Sit back” You ordered, taking his shirt off, then sitting on his lap. You had your knees on either side of bucky, your hands on his shoulders. His eye were wide and he was dying to kiss you. Fuck, he was already so infatuated by you. He wished he knew you before. Before everything. Before the winter solider, before all the wars even before steve.

“I’m going to ride you” You said and bucky nodded, pecking your lips three times. You bit your lips trailing your kisses down his neck, he moaned and you shushed him.

“Don’t want anyone hearing us, ok?”

You sit up to remove your shorts and bucky chuckled, “No underwear?” He asked and you shrugged. “Had a feeling i was going to get fucked tonight” You said and buckys eyes almost rolled to the back of his, he could cum his from your dirty words.

You moaned as bucky pressed his thigh against your core. Buckys hands were on your hips, guiding you on which to go with your hips. His jeans were hitting just the right place. You rock your hips down against his thigh, opening up your eyes to see bucky already looking at you and biting back a moan.

“Now are you going to fuck me or not?”

Bucky wasted no time in take his pants off. You nearly toppled off the couch and that made you giggle loudly, bucky put his hand over your mouth to stop you. God, you liked that way more than you probably should of.

Buckys tip teased your bundle of nerves, slowly inching himself in. You moaned and through your head back in pleasure. He was huge, and you were going to be really fucking sore, but it is so worth it. You begin to move, bucking your hips up, that makes bucky groan and then it’s your turn to put your hand over buckys mouth.

Oddly, he likes it too.

Bucky guides you down on his cock again, a little more rough this time kneading your ass cheeks. You whimpered bouncing up and down. He slapped your ass and you moaned, bringing your down to his shoulder to bite it. Fuck, so much pleasure all at once.

It’s euphoric.

Bucky took this as his opportunity to pound up into you. He’s never felt this close with someone before.

“I’m gonna cum” You said and bucky nodded.

“Gonna cum together” Bucky said sternly.

You both hit your climax at the same time, your shaking and buckys mind is in another dimension leaning against the back of the couch.

“Fuck” You said getting off of buckys lap.

He smirked and pecked your lips.

“Yeah, fuck”

A/N: I wrote this originally for @spnaubingo but I ended up including so many others. Major credit to @padalelli and @that-one-gay-girl for helping me out with beta’ing. The idea was actually from a dream I had last week and it just...worked. Although it was Frenchie instead of Dean.

Credit: Gif under Gif; @firefly-graphics for the divider.

You woke up here a week ago, in this unknown place with no memory of how you got here. The last thing you remembered was walking back to your car after leaving Target. You were usually overly aware of your surroundings, so you really didn’t know how you ended up in this endless gray-blue expanse of a building. Sure, there were fun things to do outside; there was a pool with a waterslide, some swings, playground equipment. You may have been an adult, or thought you were at 22, but you enjoyed a good slide and swing from time to time.

When you woke, there had been a blonde sitting at the foot of your bed. She introduced herself as Meg and told you that she was a floor down “if you ever need any kind of supplies.” She wouldn’t answer your questions as to where you were or how you got there. Your cell phone was taken, your purse was gone. You had access to a huge kitchen and a large wardrobe, as well as books, video games, and gym equipment. This would have been paradise to a lot of people in your situation. But you? You just wanted to go home.

You tried to get out one day. Someone caused a commotion on another floor and you took advantage of the guard’s distraction to try to go for the front door. You were caught quickly; a guard grabbed you just before you stepped out of the doors. He took you to a set of elevators you’d never noticed, selected a floor that required biometric identification, and held on to your upper arm the whole time. As if you could go anywhere.

You were marched to an office at the end of the hallway; if you didn’t watch the floor number being entered, you wouldn’t have been able to discern this floor from any of the others you’d visited. Your escort knocked on the door and opened it, not waiting for an answer from the occupant.

You were surprised to be sat in front of a desk opposite a beautiful, brunette woman whose presence dominated the large space. If there was a female equivalent of BDE, she was it. She was writing intently and held up one finger in a “just a second” gesture. When she set down her pen and looked up, you swore you saw rings of fire disappear from her eyes.

“Ma’am,” your guard spoke, explaining your presence in front of her, “I caught this one attempting to leave via the front door during the commotion on Floor 13.”

“Thank you, Aldo,” the woman said, nodding at the guard, “I’ll take it from here.”

Aldo nodded once and disappeared, literally, from beside you. The woman smirked as she took in your stunned expression at seeing the empty space next to you. She settled back in her chair, waiting for you to turn back towards her.

“Hello, Y/N,” she started, “I’m Eve. I run this show. Now,” she sat up towards her desk before continuing, “are your quarters unsatisfactory or are the guards giving you trouble? People usually don’t try to run off after a week.”

You were stunned into silence. There were so many things implied in that simple statement and you just didn’t know where to start. “Um,” you tried, “well, no. My quarters are fine and there hasn’t been any trouble.” You decided to be honest with her. She was a powerful woman, obviously, but she seemed kind enough. “I just don’t know where I am or why I’m here. I’ve spent the last 3 years of my life with a strict routine that included work and now,” you paused, taking a breath before continuing, “I’m lost.”

Eve nodded. “That was difficult for you to say. I appreciate your honesty much more now.” She stood and began walking down a hallway you hadn’t noticed, gesturing for you to walk beside her. “This is Alpha Corp. I built this from the ground up by myself,” she divulged proudly. “We take humans who have the DNA capability for superpowers and we bring those powers out. All it takes is nurturing and some DNA analysis. That analysis was started when you arrived here. You are here because my scouts were impressed by you. They brought you to my attention and, well,” she stopped, turning to look at you, “I am just as impressed. If you would like to work and have a routine, I could use another assistant for the floors.”

You cocked your head to the side, confused as to what she meant. You had only met one person who could even be described as an assistant, Meg, and you still weren’t sure what she did.

Eve seemed to sense your hesitation. “You don’t have to decide today. I’ll have someone walk you back to your room.” She gestured for a man to come forward. “This is Edgar. He’ll take you downstairs and if ever you’d like to come talk to me again,” she put her hand on your shoulder and looked into your eyes, “just call for Edgar.” With that she turned around and left you more confused than you were upon entering her office.

“This way, ma’am,” Edgar said gently, gesturing for you to precede him up the hallway. It led to another elevator bay; you assumed it was Eve’s private area as you didn’t have to wait for it. You rode down in silence, lost in your thoughts, and headed back to your quarters. Too lost in your own thoughts, you didn’t notice that Edgar also vanished out of the elevator when it hit your floor. You were fairly sure you were going to take Eve up on her offer; it at least gave you something to do.

After telling Eve you’d like to be a part of her enterprise, you were paired up with two people for training, Meg and Dean. You’d already met Meg. She was kind, in her own way, but also very brash and sarcastic. She paired well with Dean. He was a similar personality, but his kindness was hidden behind the walls he had built. Regardless, the three of you worked well together and kept the guests happy.

At the end of your first week, Meg had gone out to replenish some supplies and that stuck you with Dean for the whole day. With three of you working on the requests, they got finished much faster than before and you had an empty afternoon. Dean suggested a walk around the grounds and you accepted.

“So, what do you think about Alpha Corp?” he asked when you were a good distance from the building.

“I’m still not sure,” you answered, unsure how much to let him in. “I guess I just need some more time to adjust. I mean, I still don’t know how I got here.”

“Wait,” he stopped walking and put his hand in front of you. “What do you mean you don’t know how you got here? Weren’t you hired on?”

“No! I had a job and an apartment and friends. The last thing I remember was leaving Target weeks ago and then I woke up here!” you shouted, finally able to express your fear and confusion to someone. “No one is telling me what my superpower is supposed to be and I hate it! I just want to go home,” you exclaimed, your voice breaking on the last word. You started sobbing, releasing the pent up emotions you’d been feeling for the last few weeks.

You didn’t expect Dean to wrap his arms around you. You also didn’t expect him to rub your back gently. You continued sobbing into Dean’s chest, his compassion spurring you to let out everything.

“I’m going to fix this,” Dean whispered. “I’m going to get you home.”

You didn’t get a chance to ask Dean what he meant. Meg had returned to the complex and you two had to go help her unpack the supplies. Over the next couple of weeks, you didn’t have any alone time with Dean. Eve had tasked the three of you with planning a pool party for Fourth of July. Every detail was planned out, several shopping trips were made with Meg and Dean, and the rest of the guests had been incredibly excited.

The day of the party dawned and you woke up to a perfect, cloudless, sunny sky with a nice breeze. Eve called you to her office before the party started. You were surprised to find Dean waiting in there as well. He, however, was not surprised to see you. He looked relieved, in fact.

“Y/N, welcome! It’s great to see you again,” Eve called out from behind her desk as you entered. “Have a seat. I have some great news for you.” She waited until you sat down before continuing.

“I have promoted Dean to Director of Housing and Hospitality. He has asked for you to be his Assistant Director,” Eve cheerily announced, “You two have worked well together this last month and I think it’s a great idea. If you accept,” she continued, “you’ll be working directly under Dean and reporting straight to him. However, that does mean that you’ll have to move your quarters up a couple of floors.” Eve looked a little sympathetic towards you at that; likely knowing what a pain it was to move your things, even if they easily fit into two boxes.

You glanced at Dean who had a stoic expression on his face. He caught you glancing and shot you a wink of encouragement. You took a deep breath and plastered a smile on your face. “I accept. I think it would be a great use of my skills and a way to develop my...talents.”

“Great!” exclaimed Eve, beaming at the two of you like you’d just announced a marriage. “I’ll have Aldo pick up your things from your quarters in an hour. Dean, I trust you’ll show Y/N to the new offices and quarters?”

“Yes ma’am,” Dean replied, standing up and offering you his arm. “Shall we?” he asked you before leading you out of Eve’s office to the main elevator bank. Instead of calling the elevator, though, he led you to the stairwell. When you gave him a questioning look, he just said “Trust me.”

You followed him into the stairwell, heading down three flights before he stopped and glanced up and down, looking for something almost.

“You do trust me, right?” Dean asked, his eyes concerned and his voice low.

“I do,” you answered honestly, “though I honestly can’t say why. I barely know you.”

Dean breathed a sigh of relief and reached into his back pocket. “I told you I’d get you home,” he told you, handing you a small, thin, leather wallet. “This is how.” You opened the wallet and saw a government identification inside.

“Dean Winchester, Department of Homeland Security?” You stared at him, confused. “You’re a DHS agent? Why are you here?”

“I’m part of a special unit of people with superpowers that have been hired by the government to infiltrate formerly untouchable organizations. Alpha Corp is suspected of being a human trafficking ring. They kidnap people who they think may have the genetics for superpowers and try to get those powers to manifest. When they do, they’re hired on and kept. If the suspected powers don’t manifest, they’re sold. I’ve been here 10 months; telekinesis. Meg closer to 14; superstrength,” Dean divulged, looking around to make sure there was no one coming up or down the stairs. “And Charlie, the security girl, you haven’t met her yet, she’s been in place for 2 years. She’s incredible. ESP, clairvoyance, superintelligence.”

“TWO YEARS?!” you shouted quietly, “How does she handle this?! I mean. Two. Years.” You were baffled at the idea that someone would be this deep undercover for that long. Being here two months and not being undercover was nerve wracking enough.

“Okay,” Dean calmed you, taking his ID back, “now that you know, PLEASE keep it under wraps. I promise,” he took your hands and looked you in the eye, “I PROMISE we will get you out of here. But it won’t be fast.”

You nodded, relieved that the rest of your life would not be spent in captivity like a poor animal in a zoo. You’d do anything you needed to just to be able to get home.

The party went exactly as planned. The kids were having fun, the adults were enjoying themselves, even Eve was dancing and singing with some of the children. Everyone was showing off their talents and powers; an array of lights burst across the pool, people were flying through the air, selected items were being torched and rebuilt.

But you couldn’t delight in any of it. Not now, not since you knew these people were stolen and manipulated. You were so lost in your thoughts that you didn’t see Meg approaching you. You didn’t know she was there until she spoke.

“So, Y/N,” she coaxed, “Dean told me he told you? And that you’re onboard?” She looked at you with a raised eyebrow, sipping her drink while waiting for your response.

“How much do you know?” you whispered. “Everything?” You looked at her, seeing her nod slightly. You couldn’t explain the resurgence of anxiety you felt at her knowing everything. You trusted Dean with everything you had, and you still didn’t know why, but Meg? Not so much.

“Come on,” she said, “Let’s take a walk.” You set your drink down on the table and followed her reluctantly, looking around for Dean, hoping he’d notice you and come save you, but you didn’t see him.

You walked with Meg in silence for several minutes towards the back of the property. You followed her into a copse of trees for another minute, ensuring you wouldn’t be seen by anyone. Your heart was pounding; this woman scared you and you weren’t entirely sure why. She led you into a clearing and you nearly cried.

Dean was pacing the clearing, talking quietly on the phone. He smiled when he saw you, his hand lifting slightly in a wave. You heard him tell whoever was on the other end of the phone “They just got here. Would you like to speak with her?” He nodded then walked over to you, handing you the phone. “This is my boss, Bobby. He’d like to say hello.”

You took the phone and put it up to your ear. “Hello?”

“Y/N, Robert Singer. Dean tells me that you’re one of the victims?” the man on the other side of the phone demanded gruffly.

“Yes, sir,” you responded, “My full name is Y/F/N Y/L/N. The last thing I remember was leaving the Target near my home and then I woke up here.”

You heard a grunt of response before he told you, softer than before, “We are going to get you home. And sooner than you expect. But,” he paused, sighing, “You may have to testify against Eve. I know you don’t know much,” he added quickly, “but what you do know may be useful. Can you do that for us?”

“Absolutely,” you confirmed, “I just want to go home.”

The next month was spent working with Dean on both the case and the housing and hospitality position at Alpha. These positions afforded you first hand intel of the incoming and outgoing guests at the complex as well as descriptions to pass along to Bobby.

You and Dean became closer. Your quarters were on the same floor, two of four designated areas. The other two were empty, you soon learned, so you and Dean spent most evenings together in one of your quarters, although apartments was a better title for what they were.

You’d make weekly supply runs and be gone for the whole day. Outside of the complex, it was almost like you were normal people. Several older couples would approach you each time and tell you that they remember when they were first starting out; they’d talk about how he’d look at her just like Dean would look at you. Or that she’d always have the same soft smile on her face that you did.

You hated to admit to the strangers that you weren’t actually a couple, so you didn’t. But you couldn’t deny that there was something there. You were starting to feel something for Dean and that was starting to scare you a little. He was a DHS agent. A special DHS agent. This was an undercover mission. It was going to stay like this; it was his job, his career. He’d always be on something else. You just kept your feelings to yourself and tried to convince yourself that they weren’t there.

Dean called you over one day. He sounded nervous on the phone and you weren’t sure what was going on. You walked over to his apartment and found him pacing. He stopped when he saw you come in, walking over to you and kissing your forehead.

“Let’s take a walk,” he suggested, putting a hand on your lower back to guide you towards his door. He didn’t speak another word until you were outside in the clearing.

“It’s tomorrow,” he sighed. He looked nervous, and also sad. “Bobby has everything set up. You and I are going to take as many as we can and we’re going to run.” He swallowed and put his hands in his pockets. He seemed unsure about the plan, but didn’t seem to have anything else.

“Okay, I can do that,” you assured him. “I’ll grab as many as I can and we’ll go. Where are we going, Dean?”

Your unwavering trust and faith in him gave him the confidence he needed to continue. “We’ll get as many people as we can to the safe house down the road. I have the directions and the address.” He stopped again, averting his eyes and making you worry.

“Dean, what is it?” you questioned, stepping closer and placing your hand on his arm. The touch pulled his gaze up to your eyes; you saw the pain and conflict in them. “Dean. You can talk to me.”

Dean pulled his hands out of his pockets and pulled you into a tight hug. He pulled back seconds later, put his hands on your face, and pulled you in for a searing kiss. You were stunned, but immediately reciprocated. The world around you fell away; one of Dean’s hands left your cheek and wrapped around your waist, pulling you closer to him. Dean pulled away from you, just a couple of centimeters, but you missed the feeling of his lips on yours already.

“Y/N,” he whispered breathlessly, “I told Bobby that this was my last field op. And,” he paused, licking his lips, “I did it because I think I’m in love with you. And, if you’ll have me, I’ll spend every day making you believe it.” His thumb stroked your cheek while he searched your eyes for any sign of your response.

“Dean,” you sighed, “I’m in love with you, too. I know it’s not ideal, but-” You didn’t get to finish your statement as Dean’s lips were on yours again, kissing you roughly and backing you up until you hit a wide tree trunk. His hands slid down your sides and unbuttoned your jeans, slipping under the waistband of your panties and to your clit.

You moaned into his mouth, grateful that he was there to muffle the sounds that you were making. He slid his fingers into your wet heat, groaning when your walls tightened around him. Two thrusts later, you were crying out his name as you rode out your first orgasm.

Your hands made their way from his shoulders down to his belt buckle and began taking off his pants. He followed your lead, pulling his digits out and yanking your pants to your ankles where you kicked them and your shoes off.

Dean’s hands found their way to your ass and pulled you against him. You took the opportunity to lift your leg and wrap it around his waist. His hand made its way to support your weight on your thigh and his other hand guided your other leg up. He adjusted your height against the tree so that he was lined up with your entrance.

“Please, Dean,” you begged, “please fuck me.”

“As long as you’re sure, sweetheart,” he agreed, slowly inching his way inside of you until he was fully sheathed and his head was pushing against your cervix. He gave you a moment to adjust before pulling out and slamming his hips back into you at a grueling pace, making you moan and slam backwards against the tree. The combination of pain and pleasure had you crying out with another release while Dean was still railing you. A new orgasm built quickly, or maybe it was just a second wave of the previous orgasm, you weren’t sure. As your pussy started clenching, Dean’s hips started stuttering; he cried out your name as he painted your walls with his seed, your fluttering walls milking him for all he had.

You both stayed there panting, his softening cock still inside you, not moving for several moments. Dean’s hands loosened their grip on your thighs, allowing you to set your feet back on the ground. The moment your feet touched the grass, however, you and Dean were back in your apartment.

You look at Dean at the same time he looks at you, both completely confused. “Did you,” you start at the same time he said “Your powers -”

“Wait, that wasn’t you?” you questioned Dean.

“No, sweetheart,” he said, shaking his head, “I have never teleported, even after sex. That was all you. And you took me with you. That takes a good bit of power. I don’t think I could have done that after all that energy I used.”

“Alright, then,” you told him with a smile. “I can teleport. Now I just have to get it under control.”

“I’ll gladly help you out there,” he teased with a wink. “Since I helped unlock them to begin with.”

You playfully slapped his chest and pulled him back into your bedroom. He promised to help you learn to control him and you were going to take advantage of every second of it.

The next day, Eve had you running around doing tasks that kept you away from Dean. It did, however, give you the opportunity to practice your teleportation. To keep from startling people, you just popped up in the hall outside their doors. You never knew what kind of things they’d be in the middle of and it’s better you didn’t see some of that.

You’d become much better in the last 24 hours. You figured out that you had to envision the place you wanted to be and concentrate on putting yourself into the vision. It, unfortunately, didn’t work with people. You couldn’t just teleport to Dean. You tried.

You were glad for the work. It kept you distracted enough to not freak out over what was going to happen that night. But when you clocked out and teleported back to your floor, you went to your apartment and started making a list of room numbers. The ones you had to save.

Dean came to your apartment around 10 PM. He knocked softly before letting himself in. “It’s almost time,” he whispered, “Are you ready?”

You just nodded; you didn’t trust your voice at this point. Your nerves were in overdrive and your mind was racing a mile a minute. Everything became clear, though, when you heard shouting coming from outside.

“Time to go. Remember where I showed you?” Dean said, grabbing onto your arms.

You closed your eyes and took the two of you to the yard of a house about three blocks away. You opened them and kissed Dean on the cheek before disappearing back to the complex to start evacuating the victims.

While you were getting the victims to your designated spot, Dean was coordinating things from the outside perimeter. Until one of the last few guests found him and let him know you’d been hit getting them out.

He ran back towards the fenced-in yard of the complex, mentally moving things out of his way as he went. When he got inside, he saw you leaning against a wall with a group of three children next to you, your arm bleeding heavily. He sighed in relief, having found you upright.

Dean rushed to your side and picked up one of the smaller children, yelling “Let’s go!” You grabbed the hands of the other two children and ran out the way he came.

You got to the safe location to find that all of the other victims had been loaded up into a bus for transportation back to the DHS facility; they hoped to reunite all of the people stolen with any family or friends they had. You loaded up the last three children and waved goodbye to them before Dean dragged you over to the medical tent for treatment.

The medic took one look at your arm and dismissed you. You walked back to where Dean was talking with Meg and an older gentleman you presumed to be Bobby. All three did a double-take when you approached, Dean having told the other two you had just gotten to medical.

“Apparently I have healing powers,” you shrugged, lifting your sleeve to show them a partially healed gunshot wound.

“Good news,” Bobby said gruffly, “We got everyone. Eve, Edgar, Aldo. Everyone.”

You released a breath you didn’t know you’d been holding and leaned against Dean who promptly put his arm around you, earning an eyebrow raise from Bobby. Before he could say anything, a small redhead approached.

“Meg! Dean! Oh, and Bobby. Boss man,” she greeted, faking a salute to Bobby who rolled his eyes and suppressed a smile.

“Y/N, this is Charlie Bradbury. Charlie, Y/N,” Dean introduced you, arm never leaving your waist.

“Great to meet you, Y/N,” she yawned. “It’s been a long couple of weeks. I’m glad this is over.”

“Yeah, me too,” agreed Dean. “But, you guys deserve to hear this from me.” Dean cleared his throat and continued, “This was my last op. I’m out.”

“What!” exclaimed Meg. “You cannot leave me in the field alone. And what about Y/N? She going with you or something?”

“Actually, yes,” Dean told her. “I have a house not too far from here. Bobby has set us up with ID and papers. We’ll go be normal. Ish.”

Meg was stunned into silence. Bobby shook Dean’s hand, patted you on the shoulder, and left the girls there to go talk to some other agents.

Charlie was looking at you like she was trying to figure something out. She smiled and said, “You’ll be fine, Dean. Trust me.” She gave Dean a hug and pulled Meg away, leaving you and Dean alone.

“Ready for the next adventure, sweetheart?” Dean questioned, guiding you towards a classic Chevrolet parked in the garage of the safe house.

“Always,” you responded, truly ready for the next adventure.

I’m celebrating that my posts are appearing once again so i decided to watch back to back Supergirl and Legends of Tomorrow so, first things first i’m gonna jump right into Supergirl 6x18, i can’t believe we’re reaching the end, i’m gonna be so emotional even tho CW did us wrong for the majority of time but whatever. AS usual spoiler alert:

1. Lena planning on the bachelorette party seems like a good deal + Andrea what on earth did you do? + this romance honestly is tiring + bruh Andrea speaking spanish *swoons* + Andrea is so getting William killed + oh so we’re making this about William (i know he dies so surprises there) + Brainy my baby😍 + wives™️ + oh boy that escalated so quickly + what’s wrong with Brainy? :( + Nxyly should just shoot him😂 + Esme is the cutest child ever + Dansen moms are so cute + noo Brainy :( my baby + Jesse’s acting is brilliant + Nia is his wallpaper😍

2. I don’t care about their romance geez + i’m surprised they haven’t made Kara going through all the totem’s tests + oh please don’t make them fight + i mean they both have valid points i guess + oh no Nia figured it out + nooo my Brainia babies :( i kinda knew this was going to happen but still + again why are we dedicating time to this + yet we don’t have supercorp i swear to god… + ex lovers running advice with each other + papa space know what’s up + maybe if you have a kid with your wifeeee that wouldn’t be a problem + Esme is such a lovely child + wives™️ againnn + BDE with that suit + Lena come get your wife! + finally Supergirl appears as she’s an actual superhero + welp that was messy + wait was Lena with them?

3. So they are kidnapping Esme and killing William + Danvers sisters😍 + mama Alex is the best😍 + i’m gonna miss them so much + i’m tired of thisssssss this was literally pulled out of thin air + *gags* + oh my god is Kara drunk? + Lenaaaaa what are you thinking!?!? + Kara is two drinks away from sinning, girl i see you + Lena looks so giddy when Kara is dancing, they are so in love it hurts + i’m gonna miss him :( my babiesss + i swear they are going to make my cryyyyy + i knew this would happen but man i’m scared for Esme + i’m freaking out + poor Esme she doesn’t know what’s coming onto her + Andrea is gonna regret that her entire life tho + oh i had no idea they would find them in this episode + Kara and her family can’t stand another trauma i swear

It wasn’t a terrible episode by any means but my god the amount of Lex & Nxyly on this episode it’s a bummer. I’m not happy William died, i wasn’t interested in him becoming a love interest to Kara but we passed that luckily, the way they wrote him in this second half of the season was more acceptable so there’s that, i hate how Kara is the main character yet the show doesn’t make it about her as much as it should but you know there’s nothing to do about that at this point. I’m guessing William’s funeral and Dansen wedding to finish the show + the defeat of Lex (once again) and Nxyly so, let’s wait for the next episode!

#cw supergirl #supergirl #kara danvers #alex danvers #lena luthor #kelly olsen #j’onn j’onzz #nia nal #brainiac 5 #william dey #andrea rojas #lex luthor #ale watches supergirl #supergirl spoilers

New Fiction 2021 - September

The Curse of Monkey Island dev. LucasArts (1997)

I’ll never have fun beating my head against adventure game puzzles, and this game even offers an easier mode which I declined to my own detriment. But the jokes land, the animation is astounding for a game of this vintage, and I had a lot of fun exploring all the pirate and gothic elements that have carried this series since the start.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - Dominion Wars dev. Gizmo Games (2001)

I’ve enjoyed playing all of the Deep Space Nine video games this year, but this is kind of a down note compared to its more character-focused and bombastic predecessors. It’s just “faceless” as Eurogamer noted in their review, lacking the character moments that make this show special. The saving grace for me is the alternative history presented by its second campaign. It’s both horrifying and engaging as it strays from the path to present a “what if?” scenario akin to supposing that Germany won World War II.

"Old Buck" dir. David James Armsby (2021)

Oof, I feel you bud. It comes for all of us.

Candyman dir. Nia DaCosta (2021)

It steps confidently and knows what it wants to be, what it wants to say. I had to watch it twice when the ending didn’t land for me initially, mostly because the ending of the first movie flares out spectacularly. But this movie isn’t trying to be that, and deserves its own look independent of how it got here.

Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings dir. Destin Daniel Cretton (2021)

This follows the same early (and uninteresting) beats as those pre-Taika Waititi Thor movies, all that high court family drama stuff, but it brings it home with some cool boss fights and proper martial arts action scenes. I think I’ll always be weighed down by a desire for more interpersonal scenes when MCU just wants to throw cool superhero shit at me.

Malignant dir. James Wan (2021)

You think you know where it’s going, then you know where it’s going, but it arrives there in such garish and stylish duds that you’re still stunned when it sashays into the room.

Copshop dir. Joe Carnahan (2021)

Don't sleep on Copshop. It's mostly a throwback to hyperviolent tough bro shootout movies but the chamber drama aspect and non-bro protagonist (who still channels BDE) mixes it up in an interesting way. Just well-performed all around. Also Toby Huss's performance :chefkiss:.

The Card Counter dir. Paul Schrader (2021)

I should have known Paul Schrader going in, but I didn’t realize the prolific catalog of his until Googling afterward. This new movie hits on moments and looks that are great, but feels off in the end, like budgets were cut or (quite possibly) adjustments were made for a pandemic. I felt like it needed an extra couple of scenes, maybe ten minutes or so. Something to connect the kid to Isaac’s character more effectively.

Carrie dir. Brian De Palma (1976)

It starts out like a made-for-TV special about troubled teens, but then there are those scenes in Carrie’s house and any time she has to deal with bullies, and you know something’s not right. The way they build tension during a montage of senior prom scenes is perfect. It’s obvious what’s going to happen and yet your heart is pounding waiting for the drop, then it continues well beyond where it felt it was going to end. A renowned work for a reason built on stellar music and Spacek’s performance.

20/20 Albums of the Year

Circles by Mac Miller | Hip-Hop, Soul, Funk Released: January 17, 2020

Best Album For... Pouring One Out for Mac

I wrote a few different drafts of this album summary, and none of them felt like they really fit the impossibly large bill of accurately describing the posthumous importance or brilliance of this album. If you are a fan of hip-hop or soul music of any kind, try to give this piece of work a chance. I for one, used to judge Mac based on his early frat rap days in the late 2000s. But a decade later he came to leave the world with one of the most surprising and frankly impressive artistic evolutions that I’ve been able to witness in real time. RIP Mac.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Circles” or “Everybody”

Marigold by Pinegrove | Alternative Country and Folk Rock Released: January 17, 2020

Best Album For… Passing Through a Small Town on a Cloudy Winter Day

Pinegrove was one of the last great concerts I got to experience before the pandemic. And it was my favorite performance of theirs from the last 6 years of seeing them play live. Is this my favorite album of theirs? Honestly, it’s not. But I still find it extremely enjoyable, and the memory of seeing these songs performed live, along with some of their classics, was enough for me to include it on this list. This is an album that marks Pinegrove’s exit from their pop punk roots. It’s still sentimental, but much more country and folk rock focused vs. anything trying to be associated with emo or punk.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora Start With: “The Alarmist” or “No Drugs”

Watch This Liquid Pour Itself by Okay Kaya | Synth Pop, Art Rock, Folk Released: January 24, 2020

Best Album For… Crywanking at 3am, Bathed in The Dull Light of Your Overheating Laptop

What if Feist and Father John Misty had a secret love child? They might sound something like Okay Kaya. Self proclaimed “Singer ~ Crywanker,” Okay Kaya brings serious BDE to weirdo art pop that she seems like she could be a plant from the mind of Nathan Fielder. Kaya delivers with such deadpan precision as she rolls out line after line of sarcastic joy, staring blankly at our dystopian reality. “Here I am, the whole world is my daddy,” “Netflix and yeast infection,” “Sex with me is mediocre,” “I just want us to do well like Jon Bon Jovi’s Rosê,” and, “My parasite and I are blushing / In the zero interaction ramen bar,” are just a few examples of some of her memorable and biting lyrics. The entire album is both a critique and nihilistic fondness for the absurdity of our lonely technological society, not quite sure how to deal with taboos like repressed female sexuality, depression, and codependency.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Baby Little Tween” or “Asexual Wellbeing”

UNLOCKED by Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats | Hip-Hop Released: February 7, 2020

Best Album For... Nodding Your Damn Head To, Feeling Cooler Than You Actually Are

I had to double check that this was an album. Clocking in under 20 minutes, this collection of songs feels more like an EP, especially with the track titles that purposefully look like file names and placeholders. But for a short album, Denzel wastes no time, furiously zigging and zagging effortlessly over Kenny Beats’ 90s New York-indebted production (ad libs and all). Kenny pulls out samples of an array of pop culture references made by Denzel (like quotes from movies and weapon sound effects like a lightsaber) — as he rotates his flow between admirable impressions of DMX, Nas, and Joey Bada$$.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “So.Incredible.pkg” or “DIET_”

Cardboard City by Zack Villere | Pop, Electronic, R&B Released: February 14, 2020

Best Album For… Pal-ing Around With Your Friends From High School, Maybe Quoting Superbad At The Same Time

The first time I watched a music video from Zack Villere, I noticed the top comment said: “how did frank ocean get trapped in mark zuckerberg.” And while that definitely gets at the heart of how Zack Villere presents himself, he is not a phenomenal singer like Frank Ocean is, nor does he come off as an asshole like Mark Zuckerberg does. I would say that he is just a slightly awkward nerdy white guy who loves hip-hop production and R&B melodies. So the better question is really, “how did drake get trapped in michael cera?” This premise should not work at all, but somehow it does. This is only Villere’s second album, but he shows some serious production and songwriting chops, plus a commitment to his delivery that comes across as genuine, charming, and unique.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Grateful” or “Superhero Strength”

The Slow Rush by Tame Impala | Psych Rock, Synth Pop, Disco Released: February 14, 2020

Best Album For... Throwing a Silent Disco For One

Tame Impala continues on their now 10 year streak of psych rock dominance. Along the way we’ve seen Kevin Parker master and stretch the boundaries of psychedelic production. This has resulted in his music coming as close to sounding like the best aspects of The Beatles, while also expanding into hip hop drums, R&B hooks, plus more and more electronic elements. This is an album that I was not super impressed with when it initially came out, but as we entered the pandemic and were tasked with finding small joys in staying at home all the time, I found myself going back to this album and appreciating the themes of solitude and self reflection that Parker has drawn from throughout his career.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Posthumous Forgiveness” or “One More Hour”

1988 by Knxwledge | Hip-Hop Released: March 27, 2020

Best Album For... Pumping Your Brakes and Driving Slow, Uh *Homie* Although this album is named after a year in the 80s, the sound here is a perfect portal back to 90s golden era hip-hop, with all the gospel, soul samples, and the kind of deep bass you want to feel in your chest. This is the rare, largely instrumental hip-hop album that I find myself going back to, other than works from the legendary J Dilla and MF Doom. Knxwledge is good friends and a frequent collaborator with Anderson .Paak (in the form of NxWorries). Here we get Anderson to grace us with his presence on the track “itkanbe[sonice]”, and of course it sounds just like an authentic vintage soul sample. When I hear this collection of songs it makes me wish I still had a car, so I could inevitably damage my speakers listening to this.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “dont be afraid” or “thats allwekando.”

Future Nostalgia by Dua Lipa | Pop, R&B, Funk, Disco Released: March 27, 2020 Best Album For... Alarming Your Pet With Your Enthusiastic Lip Syncing

This album is a pure sugar rush. Like Bruno Mars with the help of Mark Ronson, or Calvin Harris a few years ago, Dua has harnessed a nostalgia (it’s even in the title, wink) for disco, funk and R&B, and is instantly a sexy, catchy, not-so-guilty pleasure. It’s sad that the majority of these songs are all bonafide club hits that didn’t have a proper home this year … except for my living room. And hopefully yours.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Pretty Please” or “Future Nostalgia”

Hold Space For Me by Orion Sun | Alternative R&B and Hip-Hop Released: March 27, 2020

Best Album For... Wishing Frank Ocean Was Your Dad

“Alternative R&B” is a contentious term, but what else would you call one of a few R&B singers cool enough to make it onto (NYC indie darlings) Mom+Pop Records?? On one hand, she brings the vulnerable and introverted lyrics of an indie singer songwriter like Tracey Chapman, crossed with the raw presence and sweet melodic delivery of a true R&B star like Aaliyah. I’d even go far enough to refer to her as the musical stepchild of Frank Ocean and SZA.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Ne Me Quitte Pass (Don’t Leave Me)” or “Lightning”

You and Your Friends by Peach Pit | Indie Rock and Dream Pop Released: April 3, 2020

Best Album For... Going Back To Your College Town To Crash A Party

Peach Pit seem like they would be cool dudes to hang out with. You have no problem picturing them as the band playing a house show in an indie movie about college kids. And that’s because there’s a familiarity to the scenes that their songs portray, of stumbling through your 20s, either being too dumb or having too much fun to notice. It’s funny to refer to this as “Indie” rock since this is Peach Pit’s major label debut with Columbia Records. But It has all the trappings of Indie; sticky melodies, gentle reverb, an “I’m not trying that hard” vibe, and lyrics that are oddly specific enough to be interesting, but still vague enough to be relatable.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Feelin’ Low (Fuckboy Blues)” or “Shampoo Bottles”

Heaven To a Tortured Mind by Yves Tumor | Psych Rock, Indie Pop, Post-Punk, Alternative R&B, Experimental Electronic Released: April 3, 2020

Best Album For... Tearing Up The Fucking Dance Floor With Your Hot Robot Girlfriend

If Tyler the Creator, Alex G, King Krule, and Blood Orange all got into the studio together and dropped a shit ton of acid on Halloween, their recording session might sound something like Heaven To a Tortured Mind… And even then, you still might have trouble putting your finger on exactly what you’re hearing. “Dream Palette” is a good reference track for Tumor’s most wild and mesmerizing qualities. The biggest styles of the past half century of music have been loaded into this gleefully effective genre blender, with blades of dissonance slicing everything up, creating a surrealist sonic smoothie.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Super Stars” or “Dream Palette”

The New Abnormal by The Strokes | Indie Rock, Dirtbag Disco, Synth Pop Released: April 10, 2020

Best Album For... Mixing Yourself Another Drink This Saturday Night

Back from the dead, The Strokes return with their first album in 7 years to turn some heads and settle back into some old habits. The charming messy haired garage rock of the early 2000s still pops up here and there, but this is really a record where the group is mature enough to show you that they actually are trying, and are unafraid to take joyous swings for the fences. Julian Casablancas pushes his scratchy alley cat yelp of a voice into something more vulnerable, sunny, and sweet, like he asked for a piña colada (you know, with one of those little umbrellas) instead of a double shot of scotch before hopping up on stage… Or maybe he did both. But these days, everyone is looking for some sort of break from our groundhog day lives any way that we can. Sometimes that sounds like selling out, or depending on how you look at it, stepping up. This album is the result of a group of old friends who got together to make music they simply want to make for themselves. Now far removed from the 2000s New York scene where their younger selves were acting too cool and disaffected to care about having fun.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Eternal Summer” or “The Adults Are Talking”

The Loves of Your Life by Hamilton Leithauser | Indie Rock and Alternative Country Released: April 10, 2020

Best Album For... Drinking Down At The Docks, Watching The Sun Set

While I am a fan of The Walkmen, I have no idea what their frontman Hamilton Leithauser looks like or how he dresses. But hearing these songs off of his latest solo, I imagine the following: a member of Mumford and Sons if they were edgy and cooler, giving off a “cowboy rocker meets depression-era dock worker” aesthetic. That’s exactly how his music comes off to me. It’s a convincing blend of blues rock, Americana, and old timey country music. All expertly narrated by dusty country guitars and standup bass, tarnished horns and flutes, and what I imagine to be a restored saloon piano. The Loves of Your Life originally started as a collection of short stories, each about characters based on both people he knew and strangers. Leithauser then wrote the music separately, and finally came to mix and match their parts together in a surprisingly convincing fashion to create the album.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Wack Jack” or “Cross-Sound Ferry (Walk-On Ticket)”

What Kinda Music by Tom Misch and Yussef Dayes | Neo-Soul, Electronic, Hip-Hop

Released: April 24, 2020

Best Album For... Cooking For Someone You’re In Love With

Exactly what kind of music do Tom Misch and Yussef Dayes make? It’s orchestral, it’s jazz-infused, it’s hip-hop beats joined with gentle soul. It’s a little sexy, it’s a little mysterious, and you’re going to want to listen to it a whole lot. That’s it. That’s what kind of music it is! Send tweet.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “What Kinda Music” or “Storm Before The Calm”

Petals For Armor by Hayley Williams | Electronic Pop and Art Rock Released: May 8, 2020

Best Album For... Browsing Depop for Your Next 80s Normcore ‘Fit

Hayley, Hayley, Hayley. You are too good for this wretched world!! After exploring more adventurous sounds and genre hopping over the last few Paramore records, Hayley decided to go out on her own. This really frees herself from the expectations that come along with being the face and heart of a wildly popular band for the last 15+ years. Thom Yorke fans rejoice, because Hayley Williams has a clear admiration for Radiohead’s haunting indie electronic vibe, while emoting some pain and darkness atop her love for 80s pop and art rock (think Genesis, Devo, The Talking Heads). This is a promising new avenue for Hayley to explore herself and process her pain and desire completely on her own. I see this new project of hers only blooming further from here.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Simmer” or “Sudden Desire”

Set My Heart On Fire Immediately by Perfume Genius | Indie Pop and Art Rock Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Daydreaming That You Were Somewhere Else

For his 5th studio album, Perfume Genius enlists production wizard and guitar god Blake Mills, along with Grammy Award-winning arranger and multi-instrumentalist Rob Moose to create a beautiful swirling mosaic of 80s pastel pop that also packs serious classic rock grandeur. Bass guitar dances between satin smooth lines on one song to churning distorted currents on the next. Sparkling string arrangements and organs bleed together to expose a fading sunset that you’ll want to try and hold in your hands to keep it in sight. Perfume Genius is unafraid to challenge traditional masculinity, packing a 21st century queer machismo into both the quiet moments and jubilant explosions.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Without You” or “Describe”

græ by Moses Sumney | Indie Pop, Art Rock, Neo-Soul, Psychic Folk Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Astral Projection 101

I mean this in the best way possible, but I think that Moses Sumney is a witch. Or maybe a wizard? There’s no other reasonable explanation for the level of creativity and wonder that he summons. This album feels like a private concert by a waterfall (similar to one on the cover), with ethereal pleas, and heavy ideas—like meditating on what lies beyond the constraints of the physical self and reconsidering how well we can actually trust memory and the mind. Sumney layers his voice to create the effect of a ghostly choir, accented by a stark intimidating falsetto that reverberates through the ruins of an abandoned temple where Sumney is the only one in attendance.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Cut Me” or “Polly”

WILL THIS MAKE ME GOOD by Nick Hakim | Psychedelic Neo-Soul Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Playing Pool in a Hazy Dive Bar

Nick Hakim is a silky smooth smokey crooner who paints with warbly piano loops, dreamy reverb-heavy guitar, boom bap beats—not to mention a falsetto that would make Smokey Robinson jealous. Clearly a fan of Motown and 60s jazz, Hakim could be considered a peer of Thunder Cat and Anderson .Paak’s to a degree. I remember seeing him perform at Music Hall of Williamsburg a few years ago. The performance ended with him falling down on stage (presumably from being under the influence of multiple substances). But while the song continued he popped back up and belted an impressive high note like it was nothing, drink in hand. And it’s that kind of messy beauty that also makes this album so engrossing. Like watching the eye of the storm get closer and closer, but unable to look away from the sheer magnetism that nature can wield.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora Start With: “All THESE CHANGES” or “ALL THESE INSTRUMENTS”

RTJ4 by Run The Jewels | Hip-Hop Released: June 3, 2020

Best Album For... Making Your Next Protest Sign

Run The Jewels’ fourth outing might be the most unapologetically angry rap album in the “fuck this” year of 2020. And it reminded me that I should absolutely still be furious about everything that happened during this groundbreaking yet terrifyingly familiar year: country wide protests over the continued murder of innocent black people at the hands of the police, government drone strikes and detaining kids in cages, the state of our environment worsening—and that’s not even addressing the pandemic or election. Killer Mike and El-P are here to scream from the rooftops that our current system of cutthroat capitalism and white supremacy is killing the planet and its inhabitants, and I’m glad that they’re using their platform to continue to sound the alarm.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “out of sight” or “ooh la la”

Your Hero Is Not Dead by Westerman | New Wave Revival and Indie Pop Released: June 5, 2020 Best Album For... Wanting Your Old School MTV

The cover of Westerman’s first proper album is mostly black and white, except for the title, which is scrawled out in lettering which spans the Crayola color spectrum. It’s an album that on the surface is cold and buttoned up, but when these choruses open up, the maximalist 80s power pop bursts like the bulbs of a neon sign. There’s a level of even-keeled cool and confidence in small moments on display here that makes this relatively new artist seem well beyond his years. Having seen him play at Rough Trade a few years ago (opening up for the stellar Puma Blue), the songwriting growth on display on this record is impressive. I’m only sad that there wasn’t an opportunity to have seen him play these new songs live.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Easy Money” or “Confirmation (SSBD)”

Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers | Indie Rock and Alternative Country Released: June 18, 2020

Best Album For... Burning Incense and Breaking Out a Ouija Board to Talk to The Ghost of Your Former Self

This is without a doubt, a career defining release for Phoebe. Taking everything she’s learned from writing, performing, and touring with the likes of Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker (in boygenius), and Conor Oberst (in Better Oblivion Community Center), Bridgers levels up to become the truly prolific singer-songwriter she’s been telling us she would always be. Bridgers has explained her personal definition of “a punisher” as a well meaning person who’s, “just talking to you and they don’t realize that your eyes are glazed over and you’re trying to escape.” Vital to understanding this album and its central message is that Phoebe finds herself caught between the contradiction of falling victim to this phenomenon while also doing it herself, especially if she ever met her musical idol, Elliott Smith. Punisher serves as a warning to her audience that if you focus too much on trying to find yourself through other people (via escaping through fandom, drugs, toxic relationships), you’ll always feel lost and dissatisfied, without the proper self awareness to ever quite know why.

Spotify Apple Music YouTube Pandora

Start With: “Garden Song” or “ICU”

Women In Music Pt. III by HAIM | Rock, Pop, Folk, R&B Released: June 26, 2020

Best Album For... Preparing For A Better 2021, lol

With this album, HAIM skyrocketed to the #1 position of family bands that start with an “H.” Sorry, Hanson! But seriously, HAIM has outdone themselves on this one. If there was one album from this list that I would dub my personal AOTY, this would be it. You might wince at any tracklist longer than 10-12 songs these days (I know I usually do), but almost every song proves itself worthy, pulling at a different thread of my heart until there’s nothing left. Sunshine State Beach Pop? Check. Blues Tinged Dad Rock? Yup! Dive Bar Country? Mmhmm! No, wait, what’s that you say, Glitched-Out R&B? Yes, yes, and yes. You can have it all, sister! ‘Cause when you’re Haim, you’re family! ;) And these three “women in music” continue to prove that they are just about the best Assorted Pop Rocks(™) act in the world right now.

Lianne La Havas by Lianne La Havas | Neo-Soul and Indie Pop Released: July 17, 2020

Best Album For... Sipping Coffee and Journaling on a Weekend Morning

This album exudes a warm vulnerability, like a comforting hug we all needed this year. On her third album, Lianne La Havas makes the risky decision to self title it, a move that artists make when they believe that it is the piece of work that they most want most directly associated with their name. It’s one thing to name your first album after yourself if you can’t think of anything else at the time, but to make a self titled album in the middle of your career, it means that you are sure about having captured who you really are and who you want people to remember you as. “If I love myself, I know I can't be no one else,” La Havas admits on the standout track, “Paper Thin.” She knows that she will meet her destiny and reach self actualization, but only through self love. And finally, I cannot overstate how breathtaking La Havas’s voice comes across on this album. The strength and control on display in her vocal tone and vibrato is quite a spectacle.

Limbo by Aminé | Hip-Hop and R&B Released: August 7, 2020

Best Album For... Trying and Get Over Kanye With

On Limbo, Aminé establishes himself as one of the torchbearers of soul-sampling, lyrics-driven hip-hop that still cares about storytelling, skits, and presenting vocals clearly. Kanye West, Drake, and J. Cole all paved the way for someone from the next generation like Amin�� to keep the dream alive and avoid succumbing to the “feel good, don’t think” form of passive listening that mumble rap has made the standard for mainstream hip-hop.

Shore by Fleet Foxes | Folk and Indie Rock Released: September 22, 2020

Best Album For... Running Along The Beach With Your Arms Stretched Out

It was really kind of Robin Pecknold and co. to have released an album this triumphant, calming, and awe-inspiring during the year of our Lorde 2020. On behalf of myself and anyone else who suffers from Seasonal Affective Disorder, the SAD people of the world really needed this, man. And to anyone who is quick to judge these beard-o’s of being boring, you’re simply not using your ears properly. Yeah, you know those two things on either side of your head? Get the gunk out of them! That way you’ll hear the choir of angels with acoustic guitars who are here to guide us through quarantine and beyond.

rate the group/pairs costumes!

Greasers: BLAH, look I wouldn’t hate this if they like at least performed Greased Lightning or committed to the HAIRSPRAY bit, like, give me some volume!! I love boys in leather, but Halloween is a time to go all out, not play it safe. 1/10

Mei and Lock’s Antony and Cleopatra: Honestly, barely redeemed from last place by Mei’s wig. Still, it’s truly so straightforward and boring, especially compared to these other options. The heterosexuality, additionally, repulses me. You both deserve the tragic end foretold. 2/10

The Justice League ft. bros + Rose: Lol. This is basic AF, completely uninteresting to me, and borderline racist in Swynlake terms (Tom is the one playing with that line there-- though it’s all up for debate, I’m just acknowledging the debate exists). I do LOVE they included their dog though, and I guess it does tech pass the Bechdel test (unlike most superhero movies) b/c of that so... that’s the only reason I’m putting you above Mei and Lock. 3/10

The Flynn-Fletcher Brothers as Mario/Luigi: Look, this is also pretty boring to me. I give points for it obvs be homemade, and I mean, they both ARE cute which... is maybe saving this more than it should. But I love cuties in overalls! I guess there’s something to be said for a classic? IDK ask me again tomorrow and I might hate it. 3/10

Minnie and Marzel as Zorro and Elena: It’s sexy! I love mining a lesser known Hollywood classic, and I love a mask, and I LOVE a sword. It’s just altogether very sexy in a classic way, and so it’s a solid, albeit safe costume. One day I too hope to wear a beautiful white gown and have my own Zorro sweep me off my feet so! I don’t hate it! 4/10

Jake Long + Deb’s Alien/Astronaut: Slightly more original! Now we’re thinking! I’m in love with Deb’s hair here, and I think the costume does strike a good balance between sexy/quirky. She also sidesteps the whole magick debate by going alien!! I missed Jake Long’s face though. RIP. 5/10

Mocha, Jane, and Barbie’s Pirates: This is also very basic and classic, but It’s ranking higher than others for the following reasons: Barbie. Mocha. Also, Jane’s HILARIOUS peg leg. That’s playing to your strengths! So um yes, please, someone, plunder my booty anyday ;-; 5/10

John Darling + Ting-Ting’s Celebrity Chefs: Honestly, if your costume isn’t at least a little bit funny, even if it’s in an uncomfortable way, what are you even doing? This feels both funny and uncomfortable and made me do a double-take on my feed. Honestly, the more I look at it, the more I love Ting-Ting’s Guy Fieri. She might, actually, be the coolest Qin after all??? Who knew! 7/10

Nemo/Finn/Tae’s Powerpuff Girls: Look, I admit that I don’t know if this falls in the same is this racist? club as the Justice League, but I’m willing to ignore it because 1. GENDERBENDDDDDD and 2. COMPLETELY homemade and designed from the ground up (ugh ugh ugh) and 3. More inventive than the Justice League. Also I LIKE Powerpuff more, and I do want to steal Finn’s boots, thank you for asking-- and Nemo and Finn even dyed their hair! I respect, I respect. 8/10

Simber’s Danny/Sandy: It’s the Queering a Classic for me, and also the Six-inch Heels for me, and the Leather Jumpsuit for me, and also Berlioz’s entire forehead, so smooth and bright that you could land a PLANE on that thing. I think Simber knows exactly what Halloween is and this costume, like their others, are the perfect balance of hilarious and sexy and scary all at once! Do I want to hit on Simba or run away screaming? I simply can’t decide! 9/10

Alana/Jake’s Genderbent Playboy + Bunny: It’s the Queering a Classic for me. Again, I reward couples who make a little bit of a joke of themselves, and so this made me respect Jake more (though I think we all knew he was the sub in the relationship anyway). This one is slightly edging out Simber because I think the Playboy/bunny combo is less done than Danny/Sandy. It’s really a toss-up though. 9/10

Seamus MacTuggen + dog as Indiana Jones + t-rex: YES this counts as a COUPLE we respect dog lovers on this blog. Um, it’s actually hilarious. I think what I love most about it is how low-effort it is but to great effect. Like, Seamus probably had all these clothes in his closet already! He is a sexy billionaire who used his cheapest flannel and bought a dog costume online for like 10 quid! I like that BDE energy and it also gives me a special thrill to give this award to the person who tried the least. It’s simply infuriating, I know. I’m a monster. Happy Halloween. :) 10/10

Fun Young Justice Fact!!

I straight up c r i e d during the S1 episode Coldhearted but not for the reason yall think. I've seen MANY discussions and reactions but not ONCE have I seen any love or recognition given to my boi in Coldhearted

THIS IMPORTANT DOCTOR MAN RIGHT HERE. U SEE HIM?? Y'ALL REMEMBER HIM? UR GONNA GET A LESSON ABOUT THIS LOVELY, BEAUTIFUL, INTELLIGENT DOCTOR RIGHT N O W

This doctor (he's the good one, not the goon) isn't named during the show iirc BUT his name is in the credits.

Pieter Cross.

P I E T E R C R O S S

Y'all, Pieter Cross is another dc superhero - one of my favs.

This lovely accented doctor, Pieter Anton Cross, is none other than Doctor Mid-Nite (the second). here's some pics (the first is w his bffl/platonic life partner Michael Holt aka Mister Terrific)

Pieter graduated from Harvard Medical at 19. He's essentially the Hero Community's go-to doctor for everything.

"Doctor Mid-Nite is the world's most prominent superhero doctor. He is often called upon when an autopsy is needed, or when a hero needs major surgery."

Ye, he's had to autopsy his dead friends :( he also does casual checkups. Powergirl goes to him for her check ups and to keep an eye on her powers. He's done a bunch of life-saving surgeries on not only the heroes but ALSO their loved ones! He performed surgery on Lois Lane after she got shot. When Hush removed Catwoman's heart from her body, Doctor Mid-nite and Mister Terrific were able to successfully put it back in and save her.

You not only want him in ur corner when ur hurt, u need him. There's none better! Imagine the sheer amount of crazy powerful allies he has bcus he saves all sorts of heroes and their loved ones! U don't attack the healer unless u wanna get fucked up by the rest of the squad, right? U also don't piss the healer off unless u wanna suffer, right? Same energy, fam. It helps that he can perform surgery flawlessly in the fuckin pitch dark.

He's disabled! In fact, Doctor Mid-Nite is credited as the first disabled superhero in comics! They're talking about Charles McNider, his predecessor, but Pieter Cross is also disabled. He's blind. I won't go into his whole origin but suffice to say he was unwillingly drugged and it caused him to go totally blind except for in the absolute dark.

He can only see in the dark and/or with his specialized lenses iirc. He carries smoke grenades that cause absolute blackness (think vanta black bombs) bcus he can see just fine in it and others can't. Any attack that involves having to see the attack (think Medusa's gaze) doesn't work on him cus he's conventionally blind. HOWEVER when he can see, it's fuckin crazy. Eagles got nothing on how sharp his eyes are in the right setting. Like we're talking super vision.

Those funky lenses on his cowl? They're to let him see in the light. It's kinda like infrared goggles and can let him see ultrasonic as well. Without his tools, he can't see. He got his sight back once and hated it bcus he could no longer work the way he used to.

OTHER FUN FACTS ABOUT THE GREAT DOCTOR

Doctor Mid-Nite has his own website where he provides free medical advice to registered users.

He's Norwegian-born. (That's his accent in that YJ ep)

Him and Mister Terrific are the bestest of friends (I felt the need to reiterate bcus they're Besties for Life. Read 1 comic with them in it and you'll see what I mean)

HE HAS A PET OWL NAMED CHARLIE!! He named him Charlie after the first Doctor Mid-Nite, Charles McNider!! He's trained to aid Pieter in combat! Attack owl!!! Batman has his Robins, Mid-Nite has owl sidekicks!

Highly Skilled Escapologist

He briefly dated Black Canary

His general medical license has been revoked, not that it stops him from practicing and helping ppl. He gives zero fucks. He's here to help, not politick around when ppl are dying.

He never stopped being a doctor, even after becoming a superhero. HE'S A LOVELY, KIND, COMPASSIONATE MAN WHO JUST WANTS TO HELP PPL

He's vegetarian AND he does yoga (imma cry yall, he's so fuckin great)

S1 of Young Justice appears to take place before he gets his powers and becomes Doctor Mid-nite cus he's not wearing any type of glasses. Wally interacted w (imo) one of the greatest heroes and doesn't know it!

Mid-nite is the one everyone says Tim Drake copied with his one Red Robin uniform (it's true too. I wouldn't be surprised if Tim was a Mid-nite fan, they seem like they'd get along)

T H I C C T H I G H S!!! I know everyone talks about Jason's thighs but Pieter's thighs are next level!! I ain't playing! Look at these hams!!

When his mom was pregnant with him, she got attacked. The OG Doctor Mid-nite saved her. Then, when she went into labor, he delivered lil bby Pieter. What are the odds lmaoo

BDE through the roof, fight me. Massive Meat Energy and I won't apologize for saying it

Survived 'seeing' Johnny Sorrow's face even tho it kills legit anyone who looks bcus he's blind. Used the recording his goggles took of JS' face and played it back to Johnny and beat him lmaoo

As someone summarized nicely: 'Prior to him getting blind, Dr. Pieter was a very caring man.. He would take a walk in the evening every day and helps out poor people who live in the streets, especially to those who are addicted to drugs.. He would help out missionaries in donation to help the poor and the hungry.. A Poor People Savior you might say."

"Doctor Cross uses his medical expertise as a hand-to-hand weapon. Once, when challenged to arm wrestle, he won by triggering the proper nerves in his opponent's arm." Savage Nerd Alert. Can, has, and will continue to use his Galaxy Brain (and BDE) to beat ppl, dirty technique or not.

Geoff Johns on Doctor Mid-Nite: "Doctor Mid-Nite is a visionary, figuratively and literally. Blinded by an accident, he’s able to see on all spectrums through the filters on his goggles."

Here's some of him being the Super Doctor:

Helped Alan Scott to determine if he was composed of the Green flame of Starheart

Helped Power Girl to check and test her powers

Saved Hourman's life by performing an emergency surgery

Saved Oracle by removing the Brainiac virus which possessed her body

Saved Lois Lane's Life by removing a sniper bullet after she was shot

Helped Raven to drive the demonic possession that attacked her by using Hologram Tech

I love him and would die for more content about him

Srsly I'll cry if even one(1) person acknowledges him in a YJ fic (or any fic tbh)

APPRECIATE DOCTOR PIETER ANTON 'MID-NITE' CROSS OR P E R I S H

Also if ur writing a YJ fic and have need for a doctor, pls add him. He didn't graduate med school to be ignored, yall. Or add him in just bcus he's rad af. At least do it for Charlie the owl!!

#young justice #Pieter cross #doctor mid-nite #I LOVE HIM YALL #A LOT #AND NOBODY GIVES HIM ANY ATTENTION #LOVE HIM WITH ME #am i gonna have to steer AND populate this 'Loving Doctor Mid-nite' boat myself??
