CHAPTER 6

summary: in which it is the end. oh, what a ride this has been. WC: 6.0k

°｡⋆˚🕷˚⋆｡⋆｡

Later doesn’t come until after you’ve been discharged from the hospital the next evening. 

Since your ‘mugging’ resulted in loss of consciousness, you had to spend the night and morning under observation before discharge papers made their way into your hands. Well, more like into Peter’s hands. After he watched you struggle to hold the clipboard and pen to sign your name, he took over without a word. 

You had to change back into your dress which was less than pleasant. Red tinged the back of the collar from the blow to your head and dirt streaked the front but you don’t really care, not when you’re too busy being wheeled down the hall, out the door, and under the dreary skies to wait for a cab.

Peter is there every step of the way. 

He’s always there, hovering, whether it be sitting beside your bed, helping you into the cab, or opening all of the doors to your apartment, he’s there. His presence isn’t overwhelming considering neither of you are feeling particularly chatty. While you half consciously watch TV, he’s napping with his head in his arms beside you in that shitty hospital chair. When you start to get restless and struggle to find a comfortable position propped against the crappy pillows, he wordlessly adjusts them for you.

The ride back to your apartment is filled with a similar quiet, neither of you knowing what the two of you are. Before today, you hadn’t even been friends. Just two people maneuvering around an awkwardness, one as tangible as the furniture in your entryway as he guides you inside. 

Katies missing presence is apparent the moment you step in the door. Darkness holds the room captive, the only light coming from the windows, even that all gloomy from the weather. A part of you is relieved you might blurt out Peter’s secret to the first person you see, the knowledge settling in your stomach like you swallowed a firecracker. 

Plus, she texted that she’d be home late. Something about having dinner plans and needing you to check her in for a lobotomy in the morning... whatever that meant… 

“All I’m saying is that a 24 hour sushi spot… game changer,” you murmur, earning a sound of amusement from Peter as he shuts the door. Your keys find themselves in their home in the catchall on the table, clattering against the glass a familiar sound of home and you finally feel like you can relax. 

“You’re saying you eat enough sushi at two in the morning to justify that?” 

Your limbs still feel heavy that you don’t protest as he works your coat off your good arm, the other side hangs off your shoulder. 

You just shrug, returning another timid smile as he hangs up your jacket. “I’m just saying that I crave enough sushi at that hour that I could keep them in business.” 

“Okay. No more sushi at three in the morning,” he snorts. Something about the sound almost feeling like a laugh makes you feel a little lighter. 

“Do you want something to eat?” he asks. The way you scrunch up your nose is enough of an answer. After the events of last night, nothing sounds particularly appetizing. You’d eaten at the hospital since you were under watchful eyes, but you were more focused on the prospect of crawling into your own bed. 

You struggle to unlace your shoes with one hand, leaning back against the wall for support. It’s harder than you thought, the laces of your high tops being a struggle only reminds you that, for the next 6-8 weeks, everything is about to be a struggle. 

Without a word, he’s crouching in front of you so he can take over. You let him, head falling back and watching him, pretending you’re not making note of his mouth, how it pinches to the side when he concentrates. His freckles had become less prominent over time, once dusting his cheeks which now were likely in a constant state of bruised. His fingers are gentle as they work out the knot before pulling off your shoe, dropping it to the floor. . 

You tell yourself it's the drugs; that’s why you suddenly wish you had a microscope, magnifying every detail of his face so you could scrutinize each detail about him. That the remnants of drugs from your time in the hospital- who were you kidding? A part of your discharge requirements was that they were wearing off and your pain was managed by over the counter medications. 

Fine, then maybe it's simply because you are still trying to comprehend that Peter is Spider-Man. That you’ll eventually see something that makes it all click into place, making that somehow seem less like a dream. If he said it was all a dream, you might have believed him. 

Your shoes land with a thud beside the door, his hands finding your hips to steady you and himself as he stands. The contact is brief and you feel disappointed in how hard it is not to reach for him. It’s almost embarrassing, how strong of an impulse it is that you barely manage to keep your hands to yourself. 

So you focus on the things you can completely control. 

Change clothes, brush teeth- hell, maybe your hair too- and then right to bed. A shower can wait for morning and you will happily rewash all of your sheets in the afternoon if it means you can crawl under the sheets. 

“I’m okay, you know.” His brows furrow at the unprompted statement, like he can’t believe you would try and convince him of that. Peeking up at him from your lashes, the corner of your mouth turns up in what you hope is a reassuring smile. “I’m just going to head to bed… so… I doubt you got any sleep last night sitting up right in a plastic chair.”

Truthfully, you don’t think he had even tried to rest. You managed to sleep pretty well considering you were partially conscious and partially hopped off the steady stream of whatever drugs were floating around your IV. Each time you stirred throughout the night, you managed to get a glimpse of Peter, his leg bouncing anxiously, either half asleep or fully awake. 

“That would be really great if I believed you.” You frown at him, unsure if he’s talking about you actually saying you’re okay or if you’re going to go to bed when he leaves. 

His shoulders dip in a shrug. “I don’t want to leave.” His tentative smile drops for a moment. “You’re hurt…I feel responsible for it. You should never have been in the place to…,” he adds before lifting his head to look down at you. The words are bitter in his mouth, coated in something that tastes like guilt and shame.

But you also wonder if he hates the idea of being alone as much as you do. 

Except, when you actually think about it, if anyone else were here, you wouldn’t want them hanging around. You realize that it’s less about being alone and more about the crave of his company. 

Specifically, the crave of his presence. 

“You can borrow something of Flash’s,” you say over your shoulder. Peter lifts his head, taking a moment to raise his eyebrows before quickly catching up as you lead him down the hall. Drugs make your steps a little fumbled, Peter's hand hovering behind your lower back like a shadow. 

His mouth twitches into a little frown, “Flash?”

Katie and Flash, the two people had somehow wedged themselves into the spot that had once been his- No, no no. That wasn’t true. They’d trickled into his place when Peter had left it vacant. Through four years of high school and another four  years of undergrad, they stuck around. Katie’s room was just down the hall and Flash crashed enough on your couch to warrant him having a drawer here. 

They stayed with you. They didn’t leave. 

And Peter did. 

They were always there. 

And Peter wasn’t.

Before either of you really think about it, Peter’s moving with a muscle memory he didn’t realize was still ingrained in his limbs. He finds your bedside lamp, flipping it on to bathe the room in the dim light that sends the shadows stretching around your furniture. Then he’s flipping off the overhead light since you’ve always found it to be ugly and harsh. 

As you dig through said drawer of Flash’s, searching one handed for a T-shirt and sweats that will fit him, he opts to hover near the wall. 

“Here, just let me help,” he adds, his voice as his touch as he reaches for you, steadying you by the crook of your arm and your waist. “You. Sit. I’ll be your hands.”

You’re too tired to argue. Instead, you just nod and let him guide you to sit at the edge of your bed. Your pajamas are sitting on your desk chair, a habit you’d had since you were a kid. Peter collects them and sets them in your lap. 

“You can change in the bathroom and I’ll change in here?” 

The two of you go your separate ways so you can strip off your damp clothes in an attempt to escape the vague sterile smell lingering on the fabric.  By the time he’s returned, dark hair messy and arms easily filling out the borrowed T-Shirt so nicely, you’ve managed to get your shorts on.

That's it. 

“I can’t get it off one handed,” you grumble from where you have flopped backward on the mattress, “I can’t actually get the sleeve over my cast with one hand but I can’t use my other hands because it is clearly the problem here.”

That was where you had given up. Your legs dangle off the edge, eyes staring up at the ceiling as you frown. The frustration of  trying to do such a simple task with such a great difficulty had been enough to almost bring you to tears. 

Give yourself a break, you’d had a pretty rough day. 

The corners of Peter’s lips twitch as he slowly shuts your bedroom door. Even though your eyes are still staring flatly at the ceiling, he does his best to hide any sign of amusement on the chance that will send you over the edge and into tears.

“Come here,” Peter says, his voice soft and gentle as he uses one knee to kneel beside you. He pulls you up so you’re sitting upright and you let him, even if you can’t help but sigh dramatically. This was going to be a long six to eight weeks until the hairline fracture in your arm healed entirely. 

You watch him from under your lashes as he bends down. His fingers are delicate and deliberate as he starts to work on shimmying your sleeve around the cast. Your eyes can’t help themselves from flicking at his mouth; his bottom lip rolling under his teeth in concentration, trying to avoid his knuckles accidentally brushing along the skin of your stomach or back

“There,” he says, gently brushing your hair back behind your ear. “There...all set.”

You would mumble more than just a thanks if your brain didn’t feel like it was short circuiting. The sleeves dangle at your sides, arms free from your dress while it is still on in some capacity and you’re not sitting entirely exposed either. 

“You can uh… just… turn around.” There's a long pause and your skin feels so hot you want to die. 

“Instead of leaving the room- if you’re comfortable with that…”

“Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely.” Peter doesn’t hesitate as the words practically spill from his mouth before he is spinning around. “Yeah, I can just- I can’t see anything but, here I can cover my eyes.”

“Pete, you don’t need to cover your eyes-”

“Too late. Already covered.”

You shake your head fondly, feeling like the entire room has taken a breath. 

It might as well have been a lungful of carbon monoxide when you quickly realize that you’ll be changing just a few feet away.

You’re an adult; grow up. 

Clearing your throat, you move gently when you pull off the dress, feeling exposed even if he clearly isn’t looking and he’s humming to pass the time. Peter is humming, facing the opposite direction and rocking back and forth on his feet. At first you think he’s only doing it because he’s trying to make it as apparent as he possibly can that he is not looking. Then you start to wonder if it’s because he’s uncomfortable at the prospect of you changing behind him, just a few feet away. 

Now you feel uncomfortable at the idea that you have now made him uncomfortable. But why would he be uncomfortable over that after last week when you’d slept over? When his mouth was hot and feverish on your neck, distracted in the quest of tasting every inch of skin- you yank the NYU sweatshirt over your head to shut your mind up. 

“You need anything?” he asks after a moment has passed. 

You shake your head before realizing that he can’t see you. “No, but thank you. I’m good, by the way. You can… uh… look now.”

The first thing he does is take your dirty clothes and toss them into your hamper with ease; just so you don’t have to get up. Then, he’s lowering himself behind you and making quick work at freeing your hair from the collar of your sweatshirt as you try to yourself. 

You inhale sharply when he brushes against the back of your neck. 

Fidgeting with the plaster of your cast is a good way to hide part of your face and avoid his eye. Peter’s head is tilted to try and see you anyway before he seems to hesitate, reaching out before pulling his hand back. He must decide to go for it then, inhaling quietly and letting his fingers dance with your own. 

“You’ll have to sign it,” you hum, knocking his knee with your knee to lighten the mood. “Make it look less ugly right?”

It works, a little smile appearing on his mouth before he tries to press his lips together to stifle it. This time when you look up, Peter’s not looking at you. While it looks as though he’s studying your intertwined hands, you know him enough to know he’s staring at the cast and letting his mind runamuck with guilt. 

“It was like when we were ten. When you tried to teach me how to skateboard.” You look down too, but more so that you can remember the memory. 

“God, that was a nightmare,” Peter chuckles quietly, shaking his head. “You’re first and last time on a skateboard.”

“Nuh uh, I got on it after that.”

He snorts quietly, lost in thought, “Yeah, only when I held both of your hands.”

The two of you settle into a quiet that makes the splatter of rain against the glass echo. Gray clouds hide the sun, making it feel later than it truly is. Everything seems quieted by a thick blanket of solitude. 

As kids, the two of you had a knack for trouble and injuries. Usually it was Peter that needed some degree of medical attention with scraped knees from the pavement or a sprained wrist when he didn’t notice a particularly troublesome crack in the sidewalk. Your injuries were usually in conjunction with his when he tripped you on his way down or a spout of shenanigans sent both of you falling down a few steps. 

Teaching you how to skateboard had been difficult that Saturday afternoon when you were both nine. Red and orange leaves covered the driveway, half raked into piles the two of you had made to jump into before he found a slug and you decided you’d had enough. 

So when you agreed to let him teach you to skateboard, gripping each other's arms as he slowly pulled you forward, he’d been ecstatic. He was even more ecstatic when you felt confident enough to let go and roll a slow few feet to a stop. Until you stepped back, lost your balance and the skateboard flew right out from under you. 

Peter really did try to catch you when you fell. His fingertips brushing the sleeve of your sweater and instead, you went down hard, a hairline fracture in your wrist that was donned in a red cast for most of November. The guilt was so consuming that he climbed in your window every night for a week because he couldn’t seem to rest.

It had been nothing like tonight. Tonight, neither of you had been reckless and stupid children. A Mickey Mouse band aid or a popsicle didn’t dry watery eyes until the pain was dissipated by the distraction of cartoons. 

Nothing could make this better. Peter had been so worried for you. So, so worried that he’d nearly broken his own phone. When he’d thought of Fisk deciding to do something drastic to make a point, he didn’t care about finding his backpack he’d stuck to a dumpster to change. He didn’t care about showing up in his suit, his secret identity not mattering if you were…

His fingertips press against the pads of your own before tracing down each digit and brushing your knuckles. It’s strangely nice; calming you even deeper towards the bone deep exhaustion that has settled in all of your muscles. 

“It’s because you’re Spiderman right?” you breathe out, more like a statement than a question. “That's why you stole those files. That’s why you wouldn’t tell me how you got them.”

There’s a pause before he manages to nod slowly. 

“Yeah,” Peter says in a low voice. “That’s why. It was… a complicated thing, you know.”

Another pause, but this time, you nod slowly. What are you supposed to say to that? 

Everything seems more complicated than possible. You still can’t quite grasp the fact that he’s Spider-Man, no matter how hard you try to envision him crawling in his window, yanking off the mask to reveal his staticy looking hair or flushed face, you just can’t see it. 

The entirety of Midtown High had noticed when he stopped getting his ass kicked without throwing a punch back, how he filled out and seemed a little bit brighter. You’d noticed more than anyone, making sure it seemed like you noticed less than everyone else. 

Katie had been the first one to make an offhand comment about it while you two were stretching for cheer practice senior year. Both of you had been co-captains, roles you’d been destined to fill since freshman year that you worked your asses off to obtain. She said it as she was tying her dark hair into a pony, voice hushed and teasing. 

‘Know how Parker always bolts out of class randomly? Like all the time? Ever wonder if he’s the friendly neighborhood hero? Hey, you guys used to be close, you think that Parker has a body like that- ow!’

You’d promptly shut her up with a playful smack on the arm. 

The idea that Katie had been the one to put it together first, sporadically mentioning that she still believed that dorky Peter Parker could be the one swinging around Manhattan, despite you and Flash writing it off. At least you didn’t have to go through the tremendous I-told-you-so that she would have since you could never tell her. 

He shifts and starts again,“I’m sorry you had to…” Play hostage by a crime boss, spend the past day in the hospital and now two months in a cast.

He can feel his throat burning when he admits that, feel the burn of shame in his chest as he looks at you. Who he was now was based around a secret. One that he didn’t want you to ever know to keep you out of danger. 

Turns out, secret or not, you had been in danger anyway. 

You know that there is a jumbled mess of an apology tangled on his tongue, his mouth parting again and again like he can’t quite find where to start. It’s why his silence doesn’t make you angry that he’s not more vocally apologetic. You know he’s practically beating the life out of himself inside of his own head. 

Just because he was apologetic didn’t mean that you were thrilled at him either. 

“Do you know how scared I was?” You think you’ve asked him that before- no, you know that you have asked him that before. The question either an irritated grumble as you put a bandaid on his elbow or a yell, like when he wiped out on the MET steps because he was spontaneously attempting to grind along the railing without a helmet on.

“I know,” Peter mutters softly, nearly wincing at the thought. The nervous fidgeting of his fingers still, wrapping around yours and squeezing to give you some sort of reassurance. “I know. I know how scared you must have been.” 

He turns to face you more.

“But I promise you - I’m going to do everything in my power to never let anything like this ever happen again to you. I mean it, okay? I am never going to let Fisk anywhere near you.”

Your frown deepens which is not the reaction he had anticipated. 

“No. Not for me,” you clarify. “For you, Pete. When Fisk told me to call you… I just.” The thought of it makes you wince. “I thought he was going to kill you. It’s why I hung up the phone. I just couldn’t…”

Couldn’t be the reason something happened to him.

You'd hung up the phone because it was the only way you thought would protect him. It would almost be funny; the prospect of you protecting him now when he clearly did not need it

Peter says your name but you do nothing. He says it again, sitting up straighter and speaking with a little more desperation, “Look at me.” He takes your cheek in his palm and moves your head so you’re staring directly into his eyes. He wants to make sure you can see the intensity of what he has to say.

You let him, chewing on your cheek. 

“You don’t need to worry about me. I am not weak. I can take care of myself.” Peter’s voice is steady, confident. Confident in himself, at least, less so spilling his heart out to you again like he had the night of graduation. “Come on,” he smiles somberly, thumb tapping your cheek in the hopes that you would understand that he wasn’t the same uncoordinated kid that used to get his face punched in. 

Okay, so maybe he got his face punched in or worse on the daily, but that was different. 

You tilt your head to the side, both to raise an eyebrow at him and press your cheek further into his palm. His eyebrow raises in challenge since it's clear you don’t quite believe him. 

“I’ve been worried about you since I watched you fall off your skateboard the day I moved in across the street,” you breath out with a watery smile. “I’ve never stopped.”

Peter’s entire chest aches when you reach up to touch his face, knuckle grazing his bottom lip. Not even he could deny the way his body lights up whenever your hands are on him. 

He’s still in love - deeply and thoroughly and undeniably. 

Peter knows he’s in for it if he lets this go on much longer. He doesn’t know if he could resist the urge to kiss you all over again. 

“Well, stop worrying about me,” Peter says before leaning down towards you, your faces only inches away from one another to emphasize his point. “Because I’m not going anywhere.”

“Promise?”

Some days, you thought that not having him in your life the past eight years could’ve killed you. You didn’t think you’d survive it again. But god… you’d let him kiss you even if he left you again.

The words and your soft, gentle expression makes Peter want to kiss the breath out of you.

“I promise.”

You believe him. Relief floods your body and makes your head hang so it’s resting against his. Peter leans forward too, both of your eyes falling closed and sinking into the touch. 

Deep in thought, Peter considers his options while you focus on the feel. He’s always been a bit impulsive and it’s clear that there’s something he’s dying to say. Peter taps his forehead against yours a few times while he debates speaking. 

“I have something to say.”

When you open your eyes, he’s already looking at you. Something about it makes the both of you break into shy smiles, foreheads pressed together and fingers all tangled. 

“Okay.” Your mouth barely moves but he’s so close that the faint sound easily carries. Your previous need for sleep is gone and you can’t imagine wanting to move. 

“I've always loved you,” Peter says without hesitation. It's a simple truth; one he's never been confused by.

Love, in him, has always been inevitable.

It’s easier to put out there since he’d come to terms with it so long ago, it felt as much of a part of him as sticking to the ceiling was. 

You don’t quite expect it and lean back only enough to see his face, blinking in surprise. It’s the abruptness of it that catches you off guard. A part of you isn’t entirely shocked at the admission- you might’ve even known deep down after he kissed you four years ago. 

He goes still too but doesn’t let go of your hands. They tighten faintly like you might slip away now that he’s said it out loud. 

"I don’t remember exactly when. I think I first thought about it when we were twelve and the wood of your trellis snapped when I was sneaking back out and you-”

“Pulled splinters out of your arm for an hour so May wouldn’t know,” you finish for him, swallowing down the urge to cry. “Yeah. I remember.”

Peter nods, slow at first then quickly shaking his head with a determined look. 

“No- well yes, but not only that.” The bed dips under his weight as he shifts closer to look at you better. “It was so dark outside and it knocked the wind out of me. I thought I was dead. I literally thought I had fallen to my death. One second, I totally thought I’d died until you practically jumped out of the window after me. You didn’t even… you didn’t even hesitate.”

The memory makes your frown deepened since you had never been particularly fond of it. It still made you recoil at the thought, even all of these years later. Not for yourself, but for him. 

When you don’t say anything again, he scoots even closer, knees pressing further into your own but you don’t dare move away. His hand cups your face, his thumb feeling for every inch of skin it can reach. 

“And then- yeah, fine. Then you did pull splinters out of my arm for two hours but that wasn’t when I knew. It was when you nearly jumped out your window after me.”

Something about that makes your smile watery, which in turn, makes him choke out a laugh. If you speak, well you’re not entirely sure what words or sounds would come out of your mouth. 

“But I think it was really the summer before freshman year when I realized it.  When that kid two years older than us shoved me on the subway and broke my science fair project. Remember?” He continues hopefully. You can easily nod that you do remember. Peter slips his fingers from your hold to card through your hair, forcing you to fidget with the seam of his sweats from where your hands rest in his lap. 

“And right before the doors closed, you yanked off his hat and yanked me off the train- god, when the doors closed and he realized what you did- that was when I knew. I knew it. You looked like you felt bad about it but you did it anyway and you did it for me and right then I knew that I was in love with you.”

What happened next suddenly clicks.

“And then high school started,” you sigh disappointedly. Peter almost wonders if he said the wrong thing when you look away to stare out the window. 

High school started and you joined cheerleading and you had less time and he felt left behind. More and more and more seemed to wedge itself between you two. That resentment he carried, how his usual go-with-the-flow attitude he normally had with everything else seemed to sour when you needed to reschedule. How he’d get all quiet when a guy approached you at your locker. He’d even been on better terms with Flash at the end of high school and he’d seemed to warm up to him more than he had to you. 

Each second of silence piles up on his chest to suffocate him. His fingers twitch like he’s going to pull away but you place your own hand on his, turning your face back into his palm. His eyes study the little furrow in your brows, knitted and giving away to the depth of your thoughts. 

It's your turn to beat yourself senseless inside your own mind.

“Thought you hated me.” The words are barely out of your mouth before he’s shaking his head, so vehemently that your head moves with him, like it will prove his point. 

“Never,” he assures. “Never once. Not a single second.”

You’re so flooded by emotions that you have to just sit there to keep yourself from crying. That admittance is harder than believing he did. Hatred was a much easier emotion to stomach than heartbreak. It's just as hard to stomach his presence, how easily he has slipped back into your life, making you aware that nothing you’d ever done had actually filled that hole. 

But he’s here now; your hatred for Wilson Fisk maybe only goes so deep.

“Mine was this past Thanksgiving when you were in Gwen’s car in front of our mailboxes and I couldn’t convince myself to walk outside to return a package.”

Peter feels all the air being knocked out of him when you blurt that out, but his only reaction is his eyebrows rising closer to his hairline. 

If you couldn’t face him before, it’s worse now so you rush to fill the silence. 

“You guys were just sitting there talking, laughing about whatever it was you guys talked about and I didn’t want to walk out there. So I tried waiting for you to go back inside because if I didn’t mail those ugly pants that day, I wouldn’t get a refund. I was already running late to get to Katie’s but I just couldn’t get out the door. Then I realized that if I waited, I’d have to know what you guys were doing and I didn’t want to know that.”

His brows pinch together as he tries to think back to the memory. He remembers being in Gwen’s car, rain blurring the outside world as they caught up while she was in town for the holiday. 

“I just…” you start again, a little slower and less rushed, “I didn’t want to know that she went inside or that you two left together or… I just didn’t want to know. So I went to Katies and couldn’t figure out why it bothered me so much.”

You’re not sure that it even makes sense, making you groan silently in frustration. At least Peter seems to be somewhat following but you’re more thankful for his patience in the quiet of your bedroom. You aren’t sure what else to say, so you come right out with it.

“But I didn’t know until that it was… probably love… last week when I woke up in your bed. It was why I ran. Running seemed easier.”

He’s quiet for only a few seconds, “Was it easier?”

You think about that question for a long moment when you realize you don’t exactly know the answer. Was running easier? Sure. Maybe. 

Trouble seemed to follow Peter like a shadow, falling into his hands like it was an old friend. But you were an old friend. So maybe you, Peter, and trouble went hand in hand. 

You shrug, “Probably not.” The answer seems to disappoint you more than it disappoints him. His shoulders don't sag as he continues to hold and touch your face, head cocked to the side to watch you intently. 

“That answer sucked,” Peter snorts. 

Whipping your head to look at him, your mouth drops open so you can scowl, his dumbass ruining the moment. 

“You suck.”

Peter throws his head back and groans with the same dramatics that he harbored as a kid. 

“Oh my god, shut up.” Peter can’t help it - he leans down, his hands slipping into your hair and his mouth claiming your lips as if he would die if he didn’t act on that impulse.

This is the fifth time you’ve kissed Peter Parker. 

It’s the first time you know it won't be the last. 

Your eyes flutter shut at the feel of his lips but it takes you to catch up to the moment. It’s slow and deep; the way your mouth slides over his in happy reciprocation of the kiss. 

Finding a place to put your casted hand is tricky until you manage to rest it against his chest, fingers twisting into the collar of his shirt as an invitation for him to lean further into you. Nothing about the way he holds you, cupping your face and settling on your side, feels fleeting. 

You kiss him until you’re nearly dizzy, knowing you could keep going until you were sick. What a nice thought, being able to kiss him so much that it somehow lost its novelty and became ubiquitous. 

More time passes but you can’t seem to keep track of it, the only tell being the slowing velocity of your mouths. Peter reluctantly pulls away first when he manages to remember that you need rest from how much you're leaning on him. 

“You’re in my head…” Peter mutters to you after taking a second to catch his breath. “You have been ever since we were kids.”

Your quiet laugh hums against his mouth as you drop your forehead against his, telling yourself it’s not because you’re too tired to hold your head up. 

 “And now I’m in your hands,” you hum, finding peace in the giddy exhaustion making you buzz and droop. 

This time you both laugh, giggling softly like little kids and then laughing even harder at a crack of lighting that makes you both jump. 

“Let me just… let me.”

With his super strength, you practically weigh nothing in his arms as he picks you up, kneeling on the bed to pull back your covers. He helps you crawl in, always there, always touching you; a hand on your back, gently shifting you by the waist. 

You practically melt into the pillows, body aching and sore as it welcomes the comfort. There are so many things that still need to be sorted out and talked about before anything can become permanent. 

But all of that seems like something for later. 

“Sleep; you need it,” he says softly from where he’s sitting beside you, brushing a few strands of hair off your face and behind your ear.  

“Stay; I need that too.” Peter twists his mouth up in that little way he always does when he’s trying really, really hard not to smile as he climbs in next to you.

Lol, the last restaurant they were spotted on that island serves sushi. But MFASR isn't about them, probably related to his Tokyo trip. I guess Little Freak missed being on Fine Line (Tokyo trip too). Lol, both are a bit of a control freak when it comes to their careers.

I think of their last trip when I hear the New Romantics line.

Please take my hand and Please take me dancing, and Please leave me stranded It's so romantic (it's so romantic) (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)

But NR also reminds me of their vinyl competition & part of Style:

Then switch sides like a record changer The rumors are terrible and cruel But honey, most of them are true

Speaking of trips, Bowness-on-Windermere was one of the places HS & TS visited around her 23rd birthday in 2012. I wonder if that was one of the first times she visited the Lakes District- known for poets such as Wordsworth. He's known for the poem "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" (also commonly known as "Daffodils")- interesting bts*- he revised it- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Wandered_Lonely_as_a_Cloud. They also got some Beatrix Potter gifts for family in that area. They also went on a ski trip that month also- made me think of the DWOHT line "So, baby, can we dance? Oh, through an avalanche?" 

Sidetrack: Coney is slang for: a gullible person; dupe. Also, Coney was also a word for rabbit.

*Coincidentally, "in Gucci's Spring/Summer 2019 Collection, multiple ready-to-wear pieces featured embroidery of the last lines of the poem." gucci.com/us/en/pr/men/mens-ready-to-wear/sweatshirts-hoodies/mens-hoodies/embroidered-sweatshirt-p-569828XJA471082 (snakes & skull?) (Not sure if HS was with them yet). But HS also had Daffodils in the BH&G pic and HsH album teaser.

Sorry, kinda rambled... lol, went down the rabbit hole.

In regards to Little Freak, it’s always so interesting to learn more about the timing of certain songs being written, and their choice of which records they go on—or if they make the cut at all.

The “leave me stranded,” line in New Romantics definitely reminds me of the Virgin Gorda trip as well.

I was wondering if they’d been to Windermere! I always think of him as the beloved muse she refers to in The Lakes.

Rabbit hole with me anytime!

Top five foods?

Oh help! That’s so hard! Ok - top five in no particular order because if I have to rank them my brain might melt XD

Campfire lasagne! This was my first year camping with a cast iron dutch oven and it was a game changer. I think this may have been one of the best meals of my life - lasagne (a veggie one!) made over a campfire. By the time food was ready it was dark and raining, we ate it under the shelter of a pine tree but close enough to the fire that there was steam coming off our clothes.

Sushi! One of my beloved memories of living in London was being able to go to my regular sushi place and the server say “Sit down, we’ll bring you tea and the usual!” Tragically that place closed when their rent went up; I still love tobiko, it reminds me of good times.

Pancakes! This list wouldn’t be complete without my namesake ✨🥞 I love pancakes, I love making pancakes, some of my happiest memories include pancakes. I’ve even made them for the dog 😂

Cheese board! I love cheese. I love cheese so much. If I can combine cheese and D&D together- even better! This photo was from our old games place (which covid killed 😭) where I ran a D&D game. Also pictured is a hot toddy because on this session my throat was killing me and I had 4 hours of orc voices ahead of me 😂 For any Critical Role fans reading; the two D20 closes to the food are my prize possessions that Taliesin Jaffe rolled for me at a con!

Soup and fresh bread! Pictured is one of my MANY attempts to recreate a soup from the cafe near my university. I’m starting to realise that the answer is to add more thyme than could ever possibly be considered reasonable.

Thanks for the ask! This was fun :)

Meet the Admin/Artist!

Hello! I am Isabella but you guys can call me Tuna, Sushi, Onion, Well anything actually I am a 14 year old Australian artist and SynthV producer

some personal stuff

I was born in Cairns but moved to Brisbane after moving from Western Australia in 2021, this year I am almost half way through highschool in 8 grade! I draw as a hobby but sometimes will make headcanons or post synthv songs or covers! I am genderfluid but often like to be referred by It/Its. I am also bisexual! I also want to try and animate but can't really find any free animating software's (Pls recommend some that can work on windows laptop :'))

My main interests!

~*...............................................................................................................*~

GANGSTA

I've watched this anime early March or April this year and it is really good! The storyline is very interesting for an anime that was released in 2015 with only 1 season with 12 episodes. It also has diversity! Showing rather accurate looking dark skinned characters! And also showing mixed races!

My most favorite character from the anime is Nicolas Brown. He's a very interesting character and the representation of him being deaf is really realistic, it also surprised me when Worick mentioned he was half asian in episode 5 but it was also so cool to me, his and Worick's backstories were really sad but also interesting to watch, I also loved how the JP va of Tristan from 7DS: Grudge of Edinburgh voiced the young version of Worick. I was also very surprised when I found out Nicolas was also voiced by the JP VA of Nanami (Kenjiro Tsuda) from Jujustu Kaisen!

Another character I like is Cody Balfour, he's so cute and shy I wanna place him into my pocket, he doesn't show up much in the show nor manga but he is very cute I love him, Cody my son :')

Another Character I like is Emilio, he is a rather interesting character since he has black and Chinese heritage, but I feel bad for him since he just wants to have the destroyers help him find Alex who is his older sister but is watching twilights get killed left and right. And its sad how in chapter 38-39 he thinks his sister is dead since the bastard was attacked, my poor child needs a therapist :(

Nanatsu no taizai

I loved this show from when I was about 10 years old which was 3 years ago! My twin brother got me into the anime and I'm very grateful he got me into it. It is such an interesting show and I always and I mean always would talk positively about the show.

I love Estarossa and Mael, their both interesting characters and thats what I love about them! The way Estarossa was first shown in the anime and manga was just a big game changer for me, I just fell in love with him, I also got spoiled from manga images on google when I searched them up to look at Estarossa panels on my tablet which sounds weird but ay, you gotta do what you gotta do, I also already knew that Estarossa was Mael from manga panels but I found it so cool and always admired both of them, my little brain filled with stuff about them and I wouldn't stop thinking about them. I love them both equally!

I also like Dubs and Daliah from Cursed By Light, when they got introduced I thought it was very interesting as we never got to see another giant that was human sized like Diane and never got to see a fairy with an athletic build, but they both were such interesting and I always rewatched the movie, also for some reason I thought they died because I would randomly stop watching the movie and when I realised they were alive in Meliodas and Elizabeth's wedding scene, I just was like "I'm a dumbass lol"

VOCALOID

this was one of the big parts of my childhood and what got me into making SynthV covers and songs, I remember playing Project Diva Future Tone on my PS4 always playing Weekender Girl and Out of the Gravity, but their not gonna count as the first songs I listened to, the first vocaloid song I listened to was either Rolling Girl from Wowaka(Rest in peace, you will be missed Wowaka) or Common World Domination by Pinocchio-p who is currently my favourite Vocaloid producer, fun fact I always pronounced Pinocchio-p's name wrong and pronounced it as Pino-cho-p :')

My fav VOCALOID songs

The Exponential Moving Average + EURJPY: The Hidden Power Play Traders Overlook There’s something oddly romantic about the EURJPY pair. Like an old-school spy thriller set in Tokyo with a twist of Parisian drama, this currency pair delivers volatility, mystery, and plot twists that would make any James Bond fan weak in the knees. But let’s be real: most traders treat it like that suspicious sushi roll in a gas station fridge—they’d rather not risk it. Here’s the twist: when paired with the exponential moving average (EMA), EURJPY turns from suspicious side dish to five-star entrée. Why Most Traders Sleep on EURJPY (And Why That’s a Gift to You) EURJPY doesn’t get the hype of EURUSD or the drama of USDJPY. But that’s exactly why it’s a hidden gem. Think of it like that introvert at a party quietly beating everyone at chess in the corner. This pair has consistent range expansions and cleaner technical reactions, especially when viewed through the lens of EMAs. Why? Because EURJPY reflects two major economies with distinct monetary policies, making it ideal for trend traders and breakout hunters. Stat Shot: According to the 2022 BIS Triennial Report, EURJPY ranks among the top 10 most traded currency pairs by volume—yet it remains underrated in retail circles. The Forgotten Formula: Why the Exponential Moving Average Is a Trader's Best Friend The EMA isn’t just some smoothed line on your chart. It’s a calculated beast with ninja-level reflexes. Unlike the simple moving average (SMA), which treats all candles like your grandma treats her grandkids (equally), the EMA favors the most recent data—giving you speed and precision. Translation? - Faster signals. - Better reaction to trend shifts. - Less lag. More swag. When applied to EURJPY, it acts like a lie detector test for fakeouts. Common Mistake: Using the 200 EMA on the 5-minute chart and expecting a spiritual awakening. Stop it. That’s like using a telescope to read the menu. The EMA Triple Threat Setup (My Go-To Ninja Tactic for EURJPY) Here’s the step-by-step setup: - Load the 21 EMA, 50 EMA, and 100 EMA on the 1-hour timeframe. - Look for alignment: 21 above 50, 50 above 100 (bullish); inverse for bearish. - Wait for price to retrace into the 21 or 50 EMA with a wick rejection. - Entry Trigger: Confirm with RSI divergence or a pin bar at EMA touch. - Set tight SL below the 100 EMA (or structure). - TP: 2R or trail with 21 EMA. This setup thrives in EURJPY’s naturally clean trends and sharp retracements. Real-World Example: In February 2024, EURJPY formed a classic 3-wave pullback into the 50 EMA around 158.70 before skyrocketing to 162.30 within 48 hours. Confirmation? RSI divergence + EMA cluster support. That’s what we call a sushi-grade signal. The Hidden Bias: Tokyo Session Momentum + EMA = Game Changer Here’s a dirty little secret: most traders sleep through Tokyo. But EURJPY wakes up during Tokyo. It’s the EURUSD night shift and USDJPY’s big brother. Here’s the move: - Plot 50 EMA on the 15-minute chart. - Focus on the Tokyo session (00:00 to 03:00 GMT). - Identify EMA bounces or breaks as early signs of momentum. Why it works: JPY news often drops in early Asian hours, while EUR reacts later. That creates pockets of imbalance ripe for scalping. Bonus Tip: Add the StarseedFX Smart Trading Tool to automate lot sizing and monitor Tokyo session volatility: Smart Trading Tool. Why the 200 EMA Might Be Lying to You Yes, it’s on every chart. No, it’s not always telling the truth. The 200 EMA on EURJPY acts more like a mood ring than a trendline. It reflects long-term pressure but lags in fast-moving environments—especially during central bank events. Case Study: After the BoJ surprise in late 2023, EURJPY blew past the 200 EMA like it owed it money. Traders who waited for a bounce there? Toast. Insider Adjustment: Use the 34 EMA on the 4-hour for trend confirmation. It adapts quicker and reflects the pair’s current volatility profile. The Myth of "EMA Cross = Instant Profit" (And What to Do Instead) EMA crossovers are like celebrity marriages: sounds good in theory, messy in practice. Most beginner traders think that when the 9 EMA crosses above the 21 EMA, it means “Buy Lamborghini.” What it usually means is “Buy drawdown.” The Fix? Use EMA crossovers as context, not signals. - Wait for price action confirmation at dynamic support. - Only trade pullbacks, not the cross itself. Advanced Twist: Use volume confirmation (e.g., OBV or volume spikes) at EMA retests. EURJPY often fakes out before the real move. The 5-Minute Scalper's Secret Weapon: EMA Compression Zones EMA Compression = Opportunity. When the 8, 13, and 21 EMAs compress on a lower timeframe like the 5M, EURJPY is coiling like a spring. Most traders wait for breakouts; you prepare for the explosion. Ninja Setup: - Wait for EMAs to tighten. - Identify inside bar candle or low-volume pause. - Enter breakout on next engulfing candle. Warning: This works best during London-Tokyo overlap (07:00 to 09:00 GMT). Pro Tip: Set alerts using the StarseedFX community tool: Join the Community Final Thoughts: The EURJPY + EMA Combo Is Your Ticket to the Underground If you’ve been sleeping on EURJPY, it’s time to wake up and smell the EMAs. This pair, when paired with the right exponential moving average strategy, offers cleaner trends, more precise entries, and tighter risk control. Let the masses chase EURUSD. The elite master EURJPY. Recap: Here’s What You Just Learned - EURJPY is a highly liquid, underutilized goldmine for EMA-based strategies. - The EMA Triple Threat (21, 50, 100) setup delivers surgical entries on 1H. - Tokyo session EMA bounces provide sneak-peek moves before major action. - The 200 EMA can mislead—opt for the 34 EMA on 4H for more agility. - EMA compression on 5M is a launchpad for explosive scalps.

The Finger Vibrator: How This Tiny Gadget Turned My Awkward Date Into a Legendary Night

Let me set the scene: It was a humid summer night, and I was on a third date with someone I’ll call “Jake.” We’d grabbed ice cream, laughed about our mutual hatred of kale, and were now sprawled on his couch watching Jurassic Park. Things were going well… until his cat, a judgmental tabby named Mr. Whiskers, leaped onto my lap and fixed me with a stare that screamed, “You’re boring.” Panicking, I remembered The Finger Vibrator tucked in my jeans pocket—a tiny, ring-like gadget my roommate had sworn would “spice up my sad dating life.” What happened next? Let’s just say Mr. Whiskers got a front-row seat to the most hilariously unplanned night of my life.

Wait… a Vibrator That Fits on Your Finger?

Imagine a chunky ring that moonlights as a pleasure gadget. That’s a finger vibrator—a discreet, wearable device designed to slip onto your finger like jewelry, with a small vibrating nub at the tip. Unlike bulkier toys that belong in a bedside drawer, this one’s all about subtlety and precision. Think of it as the Swiss Army knife of intimacy: compact, versatile, and ready for action anywhere.

Why It’s a Game-Changer:

Stealth Mode: Looks like fashion-forward jewelry. Your nosy aunt will ask where you bought it.

Sniper-Level Precision: Target your clit, nipples, or that one spot behind the knee with laser focus.

Partner Play Power-Up: Turn half-hearted foreplay into something worthy of a slow-motion movie montage.

Pocket-Sized Fun: Fits in the smallest clutch. Perfect for nights when you want to feel like a secret agent.

“But What’s It Made Of?!” – A No-BS Materials Breakdown

When I first unboxed mine, I expected flimsy plastic that’d disintegrate faster than my patience in traffic. Surprise—it felt sturdy. Here’s the scoop:

Body-Safe Silicone: The part that touches your skin is velvety soft, hypoallergenic, and easy to clean. No weird chemical smells—just a faint, inoffensive “new gadget” scent.

Durable Core: The body’s made of lightweight but tough material that survived being tossed into my gym bag (and a tragic encounter with a salsa dip).

Waterproof Design: Shower-proof, bath-friendly, and resilient enough to handle enthusiastic… accidents.

Red Flags: If it smells like a gas station air freshener or feels sticky, toss it. Your body deserves better.

How to Use This Thing Without Looking Like a Walking TikTok Fail

Back to Jake’s couch. Mr. Whiskers was still judging me. Heart racing, I fumbled for the vibrator in my pocket. Here’s how it went down—and how you can avoid my mistakes:

Charge It Like It’s Your Lifeline: Most last 1-2 hours. A dead vibe mid-session is a tragedy worse than forgetting your Netflix password.

Lube Is Your Co-Conspirator: A dab of water-based lube makes everything slicker. Skip silicone—it’ll turn your toy into a melted crayon.

Slip It On: Wear it like a ring, nub facing inward. Channel your inner spy. “Mission: O(rgasm). Accepted.”

Start Slow: Use the lowest setting. Think “romantic novel,” not “action movie.”

Get Creative:

Solo Mission: Tease your clit with the precision of a sushi chef.

Partner Play: Trace their inner thigh during dinner, “accidentally” brush their neck while reaching for the salt, or turn a lazy cuddle into a full-blown escapade.

Public Shenanigans: Wear it under gloves at a concert and see how long you can keep a straight face.

Cleanup Duty: Rinse with water and mild soap. Air-dry or risk lint sticking to it like a bad Tinder match.

When & Where to Unleash It (No Shame Zone)

This isn’t just for solo nights. Here’s how real people are getting creative:

Date Night Hijinks: Like my Jurassic Park disaster. Mid-movie, I “stretched,” let my hand “slip” onto Jake’s thigh, and activated the vibe. His reaction? “Uh… is your hand buzzing?” Cue nervous laughter… then the best make-out session of 2023.

Traffic Jam Therapy: Stuck in gridlock? Pop in a podcast, zone out, and multitask. Just don’t forget to turn it off before you hit the drive-thru.

Girls’ Night Secret: Pass it around (with disinfectant wipes!) during truth or dare. Laughter guaranteed.

Post-Work Zen: Rough day at the office? 10 minutes with this thing beats meditation apps.

Don’t Be a Dumbass: Safety Tips

Clean It Like You’re Prepping for Surgery: Bacteria love nooks and crannies. Don’t invite them to the party.

Skip Numbing Products: You need to feel what’s happening. Save the novocaine for dental visits.

Check the Fine Print: “Splash-proof” doesn’t mean “submerge in a hot tub.” Read. The. Instructions.

Listen to Your Body: If it feels uncomfortable, stop. This isn’t a CrossFit class—no pain, no gain is a myth here.

Real People, Real Stories: Buyer Confessions

We asked anonymous users to spill their wildest experiences. Here’s the unfiltered tea:

The Good:

“Used it during a road trip. Let’s just say… rest stops have new meaning.” – Sam, 28

“My partner thought I’d ‘leveled up’ my skills. Joke’s on them—it was the toy.” – Taylor, 31

“Wore it to a family BBQ. No one noticed… until I couldn’t stop grinning during corn hole.” – Jamie, 29

The Bad:

“Battery died mid-everything. Now I keep a backup in my car.” – Alex, 34

“Took three tries to position it right. Fumbling killed the mood.” – Riley, 26

“Wish the vibrations were stronger. I need ‘apocalypse mode.’” – Casey, 27

“I Tested It for 2 Weeks” – A Diary of Chaos & Glory

Day 1-3: Skeptical. Wore it grocery shopping. Felt like a spy. No orgasms, just awkward giggles in the cereal aisle. Day 5: Tested it during a Stranger Things marathon. Oh. That’s the spot. Day 10: Partner caught me mid-experiment. Their reaction: “Is that… a vibrating ring?” Cue awkward laughter… then the best foreplay of the year. Day 14: Accidentally left it on during a Zoom call. Realized mid-presentation. Cue internal screaming.

Final Verdict: Should You Try It?

If you’re into discreet, versatile play—absolutely. It won’t replace your favorite toys, but it’s perfect for adventures, quick stress relief, or turning mundane moments into something memorable. Experiment, laugh at the awkwardness, and remember: pleasure doesn’t need to be loud, expensive, or complicated to be transformative.

Why You Should Have Quirky Socks in Your Wardrobe

In the world of fashion, accessories play a key role in defining personal style. While shoes, bags, and jewellery often steal the spotlight, there’s one unsung hero that has been making waves in recent years—quirky socks. From vibrant patterns to humorous prints, quirky socks have evolved from a simple necessity to a fun and bold fashion statement. Whether you prefer short socks peeking out of your sneakers or full-length socks making a dramatic impact, there’s a quirky pair out there for everyone.

The Charm of Quirky Socks

Quirky socks bring an element of surprise to any outfit. They are an easy way to express personality, mood, and even a sense of humour. Unlike traditional socks, which are often plain and functional, quirky socks come in a variety of playful designs, from avocados and astronauts to witty quotes and abstract patterns.

One of the reasons quirky socks have gained popularity is their ability to add a touch of individuality to even the most formal outfits. Imagine wearing a classic black suit and suddenly revealing a pair of socks featuring colourful tacos or adorable cats—instantly, your ensemble becomes more engaging and light-hearted.

Choosing Between Short Socks and Full-Length Socks

When it comes to quirky socks, the choice between short socks and full-length socks depends on personal preference and the occasion.

Short Socks: Subtle Yet Playful

Short socks are perfect for those who want a hint of quirkiness without going overboard. They work well with sneakers, loafers, or casual shoes, offering a subtle peek of colour or pattern. These socks are ideal for those who prefer a minimalistic approach but still want to add a touch of fun to their look.

For example, imagine wearing a pair of white sneakers with denim shorts and socks that have tiny flamingos or sushi rolls printed on them. The small glimpse of quirkiness makes the outfit feel fresh and playful without being too overwhelming.

Full-Length Socks: Bold and Eye-Catching

For those who love to make a statement, full-length socks offer endless possibilities. Whether worn with formal trousers or under a skirt, these socks allow for greater creativity. Bright colours, bold graphics, and unique textures can turn an ordinary look into something extraordinary.

Full-length socks also provide warmth and comfort, making them perfect for colder months. A pair of knee-high socks with funky polka dots or galaxy prints can be a game-changer when styled with boots or a dress.

Why Quirky Socks Are a Must-Have

Quirky socks are more than just a fashion trend—they are a form of self-expression. Here are some reasons why you should embrace them:

Break the Monotony: If your wardrobe consists of mostly neutral colours, adding a pair of funky socks can instantly inject some fun into your look.

Perfect Conversation Starters: Whether at work or a social gathering, an interesting pair of socks can be a great icebreaker.

Great Gift Idea: With their fun and personalized designs, quirky socks make for perfect gifts for friends, family, or colleagues.

Affordable Fashion Upgrade: Unlike expensive accessories, quirky socks offer a budget-friendly way to experiment with style.

How to Style Quirky Socks

Wearing quirky socks doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style. Here are some tips to help you pull off the look with different outfits and shoe types effortlessly:

Sneakers: Pair short socks with sneakers and rolled-up jeans for a casual, trendy vibe.

Loafers: A sleek pair of loafers with subtly quirky socks adds personality to office wear without looking unprofessional.

Boots: Full-length socks with unique designs can peek out from boots, adding an extra layer of interest.

Dresses and Skirts: Knee-high quirky socks can be paired with skirts or dresses to create a fun, preppy look.

Final Thoughts

Quirky socks are a simple yet effective way to add personality to your wardrobe. Whether you opt for short socks with subtle designs or full-length socks that make a statement, there’s no denying the charm of these playful accessories.

A Guide to Enjoying Premium Tuna

Why Quality Matters When Choosing Tuna Fillets

When it comes to seafood, selecting the right tuna fillets makes all the difference in taste, texture, and nutritional value. High-quality tuna is firm, rich in flavor, and packed with essential nutrients. Whether you're preparing a light salad or a gourmet dish, choosing premium tuna ensures a superior culinary experience.

Exploring the Different Ways to Enjoy Tuna

A versatile ingredient, tuna can be incorporated into various meals, from fresh sushi rolls to hearty pasta dishes. It pairs well with citrus flavors, Mediterranean herbs, and even spicy marinades. Whether grilled, seared, or enjoyed raw, the right preparation enhances the natural umami of this delicious seafood.

What Sets a Premium Tuna Fillet Apart?

For seafood lovers, the difference between an average cut and a high-quality tuna fillet is evident in both texture and taste. A premium fillet is smooth, cleanly cut, and rich in natural oils that provide its signature melt-in-your-mouth experience. These fillets are often sourced from the best fishing locations to ensure peak freshness and flavor.

Why Gourmet Tuna Is a Game Changer in the Kitchen

For those who appreciate fine dining, incorporating gourmet tuna into everyday meals elevates the overall experience. This high-quality seafood offers a delicate yet bold taste, making it ideal for crafting refined dishes. Whether mixed into salads, served with artisan bread, or plated as a main course, gourmet options provide an unmatched culinary delight.

The Benefits of Choosing Wild Caught Tuna

Sustainability and quality go hand in hand when selecting wild caught tuna. This method of fishing ensures that the fish is sourced responsibly, preserving marine ecosystems while delivering a cleaner, more natural taste. Wild-caught varieties are often richer in omega-3 fatty acids, making them a healthier choice for those looking to maintain a balanced diet.

Convenience Meets Quality with Wild Caught Canned Tuna

For busy individuals seeking a quick yet nutritious option, wild caught canned tuna is an excellent pantry staple. Retaining the same great taste and nutritional benefits as fresh tuna, canned options provide a convenient way to incorporate seafood into daily meals. Whether used in sandwiches, salads, or pasta dishes, canned tuna remains a go-to choice for health-conscious eaters.

By selecting high-quality tuna products, you can enhance both your meals and your overall well-being. From fresh fillets to convenient canned options, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy this nutrient-rich seafood.
