mi vida - my life || dios mio - my god || mi bella esposa - my beautiful wife || cariño - honey

“You want me to do what now?”

Miguel sighed exasperatedly as he facepalmed, embarrassed. “Don’t make me repeat mys—”

“No no no, I heard you loud and clear.” Which doesn’t mean you understand why all of a sudden. “But why?”

“Should I have any reason why I want you to sit on my face?”

In a gazillion universe, you’d never thought you’d hear those words come out of his lips. Sitting on his lap, you stared at the man incredulously to which he scowled at.

Usually, oral between you both are usually done with you underneath him as he pinned your thighs open and wide for him since he likes the control. To hear him ask you to sit on his face mid-foreplay shocked you.

You pinched your thigh, unconvinced by his sudden change of mind and Miguel sighed once more.

“Is it that hard to believe? Dios mio, if you don’t want to do it, just say it—”

“No no no, lay back down, I’m just processing.”

Excitement thrummed madly in your veins as you pushed the man back into the mattress. Excitement got you removing your underwear in a second before sitting back on his chest. It’s not fast enough apparently, when his strong arms hook under your legs and pull you directly on top of his lips.

Your breath got stuck into your throat. The mere feeling of his hot breath on your skin caused ripples of heat from your abdomen to your fingertips. You’ve always had orals before, it was something he’d never forget, yet there was something about sitting on top of his face that got you aroused more than ever.

“Go any slower and I would’ve thought you’d want to back out.”

“Not my fault. You’re so impatient.”

“A pretty girl sat on top of me, naked and wet, begging to be devoured. Do you think I’d ignore you, mi bella esposa?”

His dark voice, along with his fogged red eyes staring at you through his eyelash sent shivers down your spine, cheeks flushing beet red. You almost slapped the growing smirk off of his face at your flustered state.

“You’re so annoying.”

“And you smell absolutely delicious.”

His arms locked around your thighs and you immediately knew you were done.

His tongue felt like silk gliding through your folds before rolling your clit in figures of eight. You sighed, throwing your head back as pleasure slithered down your spine at his every exhale fanning your skin. 

There was something about the stings his stubbles brings as it scratches your skin along with the stimulation of his tongue that drive you crazy. 

You swear you’re not a masochist by any means, yet when it comes to Miguel, every joy, sadness, pain and pleasure felt like a reward from the high heavens that you couldn’t help but accept with gratitude.

Your hand found stability in his dark locks, pulling and tugging his head closer to your heat, causing him to groan, the vibration seeping into your bones.

His hands roamed your body as if desperate to find a treasure in the unknown, nails dragging the skin from your back and down to the globes of your ass. The sting they left in their wake stirs your nerves awake, the pain mixing in with pleasure. You sighed, falling to lean on the piles of pillows as you dragged your clit with the point of his tongue.

Miguel wandered lower, tongue rolling around the rim of your entrance, sending electric jolts down your legs. You shivered as the sensation of his fangs rubbing against your folds, always so close yet so far away.

You gasped when the appendage plunged into your entrance, his large nose pushing into your clit as he pulled you closer to his face.

“Fuck…!”

“You taste divine.” He groaned. “Give me more.”

Bringing his hand down hard onto your ass, you whined. The stinging pain it left had your body singing for more and you knew Miguel was aware of the effect it has on you with how hard you clench on his silky appendage.

“Move.”

“Huh?”

Another sharp slap echoed in the living room, harder than the one earlier and you cried, hips stuttering forward on his flattened tongue.

“Ride me, cariño. Like you’ve always wanted.”

And you swear you’ve never heard anything more romantic than that.

With a smidge of hesitance, fearing you’d suffocate him, you rolled yourself on his tongue, eyes locked onto his darkened ones that dripped with desire. Still unsatisfied, his hand lands another hit on your skin and you move more desperately against him.

You cry as he starts to pick up the pace of his tongue, putting pressure onto your bead and shaking his head aggressively underneath you. He swats you once more when your hips stutter from the stimulation before clawing your flesh and grounding you further into his mouth.

“Harder.”

“I’m trying—Ah!”

Sneaking a hand below, he immediately inserts two digits inside of you. He spared no time hastening the speed of his thrusts while licking enthusiastically onto your clit making your eyes roll back.

Chasing the pleasure his fingers and mouth offered you, your hips rolled uncontrollably against his face. The obscene squelch echoing in the room would have embarrassed you, yet you couldn’t find it in you to flush.

The tight knot in your abdomen tightens as heat explodes from your chest and reaches down the tips of your limbs. You couldn’t do anything but cry as you tether closer to nirvana.

“I-I’m close.”

“Come for me, mi vida. Give it to me. I want it all.”

With his grounding arm reaching up to rake through your back along with his fingers and tongue, the knot unfurls and you come with a cry. 

Suddenly, he had both arms wrapped around your waist, preventing you from fluttering away from his ministrations. You gasped and pushed at his head but he paid no heed to them, rolling and shaking his tongue onto your clit as if trying to coax another climax from you.

“Miguel…!”

His nails digging into your flesh was the only answer you received and maybe the tug on his lips at your trembling thighs as well. It didn’t take long before pain started to blur with pleasure and your hips rocked against his tongue despite the protest of your heat with one hand tugging on his hair and the other holding on for dear life onto the headboard.

You didn’t have the mind to worry about his nose being blocked by your mon pubis, focused solely on your orgasm. With how he ground your hips onto his lips, you knew he didn’t mind.

And with a weak shout, you unravel, flesh and bones, on top of him. There’s a sound of something breaking in the haze, but paid no heed to it as you fall bonelessly onto the mattress. Miguel pulls away, gasping for air just as you turn to face the ceiling.

Your arousal drenching his face evoked something feral within you, the simmering desire in your stomach stirring awake once more. His eyes turned to the headboard and chuckled, reaching over to run his fingers over the dent with amusement dancing in his eyes.

“I guess a Spider-Man will always be a Spider-Man.”

“Oh shut up.” You groaned, chucking a pillow on his face.

⛇₊˚ʚ₊˚✧ AND I CHOSE YOU, ‘CAUSE YOU’RE ALL I NEED ft. dazai, chuuya, fyodor, nikolai

some winter prompts/scenarios with the bsd men…and other romantic things they spoil you with.

info. fem!reader. fluff fluff !! domestic moments. profanities from chuuya. established relationships. kissing. mentions of a fake! machete from nikolai lmao.

DAZAI says: it’s too cold to get out of bed! can’t we just stay in and cuddle?

As soon as your eyes fluttered open, you were greeted with the realization that it was far too late to wake up at this time on a weekday. You could see the sun outside your window, overlooking the blanket of snow that had fallen the night before. Panicking, you tried to turn towards your nightstand to catch a glimpse of your clock to confirm your thoughts, but a leg wrapping around your waist stopped you.

“Osamu?”

“Morning, beautiful,” Dazai’s sleepy voice replied, continuing to trap you in an embrace with his arms.

“What time is it?” you asked.

“Don’t worry about it,” he replied, but that only made you feel even more uneasy. You forcefully shifted out of his grasp to look at your clock—woah, you were both supposed to be at work an hour ago.

You sat up on the bed, startling Dazai. “Osamu! We’re supposed to be at work! Why didn’t the alarm go off…I haven’t played with it lately…”

Another realization. You sharply eyed Dazai with a frown, who, in contrast, had his signature mischievous smirk on his face, even through tired eyes.

“Did you turn it off?!”

“Huh?” He yawned. “Now, why would you accuse me of such a thing? I don’t see why the alarm should be turned off.”

“Exactly!” you replied. “But who else could’ve done it? A ghost?”

“Hmm.” He tapped his index finger on his chin in thought. “Oh, I know!

“How about fate?” His hand moved to cup your cheek as he answered you in a flirtatious voice. You tried not to cringe at how corny he sounded. “What if fate wanted us to miss work today so we can stay in and spend time together inste-”

“Now this is where you gave yourself away!” you cut him off, moving towards the end of the bed to stand up. “Who said we’re missing work? It’s better to be late than not show up at al-”

Dazai grabbed your arm, pulling you back in.

“Osamu!”

“Yeah, unless you’re sick! Wouldn’t want to infect everyone else with a cold, right?”

“But none of us are sick?”

“Too bad,” he whispered, pulling you back under the covers. “I already called the Agency. I told them that…” he made dramatic coughing sounds, “...you were sick, and of course, you got me sick too!”

“What?!” you were in disbelief. “You liar! You could’ve at least not put the blame on me!”

“Oh, don’t be mistaken! I said it was my fault—you just looked so adorable while sick, I just had to cuddle up with you the whole night! So naturally, I got sick too. Isn’t that believable? I’d do the same if it actually happened.”

You facepalmed. “You’re not making it past Ranpo.”

“Don’t worry about him. I’ve taken care of that too,” Dazai smiled. There was no getting around Ranpo, but it would only be a problem if he exposed the lie. So, Dazai had bought him a stockpile of snacks to keep his mouth shut.

You sighed before snuggling up against him. It looks like you weren’t going anywhere today. Not that you were complaining anymore—if your lover handled everything anyway.

“So why did you want to stay in?” you asked.

“Because I knew I’d feel cold if I got out of bed.” The brunette’s fingers started stroking through your hair as you rested your head on his chest, relaxed by both his hand and the faint thump of his heartbeat.

“That’s it?” you laughed. “You didn’t want to be cold?”

“That, and because I want to spend time with my belladonna, duuh.” Dazai turned you around so he could see your face.

“You look pretty. Just like an angel, more bonny than any other snow angel.” He tucked a strand of hair behind your ear as his eyes studied you in admiration, flustering you. You were in awe that he could call you that when you had just woken up—you probably looked like a mess. He was the one who looked lovely—amber eyes peeking through his untidy hair and pretty eyelashes, the faint pink that surged through his cheeks when you kissed his knuckles, his bandaged chest that was revealed under his slightly unbuttoned pajamas…Dazai looked as dreamy as hearing his morning voice. And man, was it attractive, too.

He gave innocent pecks from one corner of your mouth to the other, and you reciprocated. You gently peppered each other’s faces with sleepy kisses until you rested on his torso again.

“That’s right, bella,” he cooed, rubbing your back. “We can relax today.” You wrapped your arms around him, enjoying the warmth he provided. “And if you’re hungry, we can order something from wherever you want later, yeah?”

You nodded with a smile. “Sounds perfect.”

CHUUYA says: let’s go ice skating, darling!

“C’mon, doll, it’s okay. Promise I’ll catch you if you slip!”

A local lake had frozen over, and you’d always wanted to learn how to ice skate, so Chuuya saw it as the perfect opportunity to teach you. Yet now, you stood at the edge with your skates, intimidated by the sapphire water that rested below the thin layer of ice and having nowhere to hold onto for support. Thankfully, it was just the two of you there; you would’ve felt even more nerve-wracked if others were watching.

“You’re so rude, Chu! You left me!” you whined, your voice traveling across the serene scenery. Chuuya simply laughed—he had skated a few feet off into the lake, waiting for you to follow. Yet, to you, it seemed so much farther than that.

“I’m right here!” he replied. He motioned for you in a way that reminded you of how a parent encourages a baby to take their first step. “Here, baby!” He cooed, holding his arms out. “You can do it.”

“Are you mocking me?! You’re talking to me like a little girl!”

“You are my girl though, sweetheart,” the ginger responded.

You sighed, your breath visible as it fanned out into the cold. “There has to be some sort of compensation, though, if I do fall!”

“I’ll massage whatever hurts if anything does,” he promised.

“Fair.” Chuuya’s massages were priceless.

You slowly stepped onto the ice, trying to keep balance on the blades attached to your feet. You looked up at Chuuya, panicking.

“Bend your knees.” You immediately followed, which helped you stabilize yourself.

“Now push off from one knee to the other,” Chuuya continued. Slowly, you started moving towards him, skating into his arms when you reached him.

“Wasn’t so hard, was it?” he smirked through the embrace. “Good job. Now c’mon.”

Chuuya started leading you across the ice, helping you get used to the rhythm and being in sync with each other. Once he saw you get the hang of it, he suggested something.

“We can go really fast, yknow,” Chuuya proposed. “If you want…I think it’ll be exciting.”

“Exactly how fast?” you asked.

“I’d use my ability to enhance it,” he smiled. You knew that would speed you up tons.

“Okay,” you said after contemplating for a few seconds. “I trust you.”

Chuuya moved in front of you to hold your hands in his. “Hold on tight, baby!”

You gripped onto the executive as he activated his ability. And with one push, after making sure you knew it was coming, you two zoomed across the lake, wind breezing past you. You screamed—in surprise, fear, and exhilaration, as Chuuya steered you both, even more talented doing it backwards.

“Damn, you’re flying, doll!” he exclaimed and loosened his grip on one of your arms. Chuuya spun you around on the ice as he slowed the both of you down, bringing you to a complete stop with a kiss.

“Already like a pro,” he praised. “You learned so fast. And what’d I say? I promised I wouldn’t let you fall.”

You chuckled, feeling warmth heat up your frost-nipped cheeks as Chuuya cupped your face with his fingers. “I still want a massage, though. Pleeease?”

He smirked. “Fuck, I could never refuse since you asked so nicely. And I guess you deserve something for doing so well on skates. Of course.”

“Yay!” You cheered as you skated in a circle around Chuuya before connecting his lips with yours once again.

“This was incredibly fun, Chu.”

FYODOR asks: is the fireplace not enough? you need me to warm you up, too?

“It’s cold.”

You and Fyodor were in a cabin high up in the mountains, the epicenter of planning his next mission. Fyodor often traveled, and you always accompanied him, despite his warnings of how boring those journeys would be because his attention would be mainly focused on his paperwork and mapping out the areas by the temporary headquarters.

You always reassured him you were completely fine with it. You understood his job and were used to him not having his attention on you all the time. You were content reading through his collection of novels with his cursive annotations scribbled throughout the pages to pass the time while he sat devising schemes.

Though right now, you were starting to shiver, even below the three layers of your sweater. The heat radiating from the candle on the desk you sat reading at wasn’t enough—you were still cold.

“Put your coat on,” Fyodor replied from another table. He had let you have the true desk by the bookshelf with the comfy chair to lounge in while he took the dining table.

“It’s too bulky. It’ll be uncomfortable,” you said, gliding your hand over a page.

You heard a sigh. “Must you always choose comfort over practicality?”

“Of course, when I have the privilege,” you chuckled. “Can I light the fireplace?”

Fyodor looked up from his work. “Yes, I’ll help you.”

“Are you sure? You seem busy. I can do it myself.”

“No worries, as long as you don’t distract me with anything else.”

You gave him a knowing smirk. “I’m not sure if I can guarantee that,” you replied as you headed for the wooden logs in the back. Fyodor followed you, helping you carry a few over to the fireplace.

You ensured all the air vents were open as he threw the wood in, starting the fire with a lighter. Fyodor sat in the single armchair right in front of it, checking to see if it was stable from afar.

“How’s this?” he asked, watching you on the floor, getting close to feel the flames. “Warming up?”

“Yes,” you responded, turning towards him.

“Good. You can sit here while I return to-“ he was both cut off in speech and from getting up when you lowered yourself onto his lap. “Milaya…“

“I warned you I couldn’t guarantee it,” you whispered, straddling him. You weren’t forceful—each move was as graceful as a ballerina’s glide, and it was probably because, despite his words, Fyodor differed to fight back.

“Stay for a little, please,” you softly pleaded, trapping the ravenette even more by wrapping your arms around his neck. “Can you take a short break?”

“You’re asking me as if you’re giving me a choice,” Fyodor chuckled, still seeing you give him no room to leave. “Fine. I’ll indulge in your wants this once.”

“It’s more of indulging in my needs,” you corrected him, looking into violet eyes. You then picked up the book you had been reading earlier to continue.

“Enjoying it so far?” he asked, moving the hair out of your face and tucking it behind your ears.

“Yeah. But I’m not going to lie, I think I like your annotations more than the actual book.”

“How flattering.” Fyodor smiled. “I enjoyed reading it a lot, too, though. That’s why I wrote so much.” You flipped open to the page you left off on when you suddenly had an idea.

“What if you read to me?” you asked with a giggle.

His face showed rare, genuine surprise for a moment. “Hm? It’s not like this is some bedtime story…

“I’m not against it, though.”

And so, he started reading to you. You sang in victory in your head because though you would never admit it to him—Fyodor had too much ego for you to heighten it even more—you loved his voice. His accent laced the words of the plot that resumed as he spoke from page to page.

You couldn’t think of anything more perfect. Hearing the satisfying tone of his tongue accompanied by the ambiance of the fireplace and the flipping of pages…you could stay nuzzled up against him like this forever.

“I thought you said you were enjoying it,” Fyodor paused after some time, noticing your eyelids drooping and head limp against his shoulder. “Yet you’re falling asleep.”

“I am,” you said, your words slurring. “I’m just really comfy like this. It feels cozy…makes me sleepy…”

You tucked your face into his neck. Fyodor gently closed the book before wrapping his arms around your waist.

“Well, it can’t be helped…” he whispered. “Sweet dreams, dorogaya.”

NIKOLAI says: let’s build a snowman!

“Why are you putting the carrots for eyes?” You shook your head in disappointment as you watched Nikolai create his ‘snowman.’ It hardly looked like one, honestly. The only thing normal about it was the base—which you had helped him with. Three spheres of snow stacked upon each other to make the snowman’s body. The rest…was very Nikolai.

He had put the carrots as the eyes. And the snowman had three orange, pointy eyes. As for the mouth, he sculpted a smile out of clay, which was fine, but of course, he made it in a way that looked very ominous. Then, the jester had decorated it with a bunch of colorful pom-poms. The whole thing was very random, but you knew something like this was coming.

“And finally!” Nikolai pulled out a fake plastic machete.

“Kolya, what the heck?! Now, we really can’t leave this here! What if some kid stumbles upon it and takes the knife?”

“It’s fake, baby, don’t worry!” He replied, running his finger along the sharp end.

“Well, yeah, but still! I don’t think anyone’s parents would appreciate that!”

Nikolai sighed before a portal appeared, swallowing his entire snowman and the machete inside.

“You play too safe sometimes, love.”

“Where did you transport that to?!”

“The Sky Casino,” he giggled. “I’m sure Sigma will find the new decoration lovely!” You immediately felt pity towards the poor man—you imagined him having to clean up a puddle of melted snow and other objects in the casino.

You just stood for a moment before Nikolai spoke again.

“Okay, I’ll actually make something you like,” he said. “Could you help me with the base?”

You didn’t know what he was going to do next, but you helped him anyway after making him promise he wasn’t going to pull out anymore weapons, real or fake. You stacked the snow on top of each other and waited to see what he was going to do next.

Nikolai transported two buttons that reminded you of your eye color to place on the snowman’s face as its eyes. He then used two sticks to create a cute smile. Then, he pulled out a hat and scarf that looked like the exact ones you were wearing…

“Wait, huh?” You glanced down at your attire and then at the articles, you saw Nikolai dressing the snowman in. “Where did you even get that?”

“The place where you got yours, duh!” he responded. You tried to push away the thought in your head that he most likely stole it. But now, you understood what he was doing. So, while he finished replicating you, you started a snowman right next to his.

“Kolya, can you please let me borrow your top hat? And a green and a gray button?”

His face grew elated. “Sweet dove! You’re doing what I’m doing!” He summoned what you had asked for. “Here you go!”

In the end, Nikolai had created a snowman of you, and you had built a snowman of him. It made your heart warm at how sweet it was.

“Yours looks so cute!” you exclaimed, looking at the one of yourself. You then teased him. “Honestly, I’m surprised you were capable of this.”

“No snowman will ever be as cute as you,” he responded with a wink. “And what can I say? I’m full of surprises.” He then threw himself onto you.

“And you made me! My heart could burst right now…look at us together!” You felt everything happen at once after that—one moment, Nikolai was spinning you in the air, absolutely thrilled, and the next, his lips sealed yours in a passionate kiss.

“Quiz time,” Nikolai whispered on your mouth.

“What must’ve I done to deserve the best girl in the world?”

rbs are cherished; they are your christmas gift to me <3

God au critters 3/4

Fun facts under the cut!

CraftyCorn

Crafty is the goddess of the arts. Theater, dance, crafts, painting, weaving, you name it.

Crafty’s fighting style is like a ballerina, let’s just say. She moves so gracefully, as if she’s dancing, before she suddenly makes a strike. I just love her so much she’s such a girl boss ahhh-

Huge introvert. Barely socializes unless she has to (or Bobby or DogDay or Picky make her)

She is EXTREMELY flexible. You’ll walk into her quarters and find her doing some ungodly yoga pose in the corner of her room. CatNap was the same way, and before everything happened, sometimes they’d be yoga buddies lmao

Speaking of CatNap, her and him were extremely close. Both had similar personalities and sheltered upbringings. They spent a lot of time together before everything. To Crafty, he was a shoulder to cry on.

She’s ace here. She wants to feel romantic attraction, but always feels like she’s physically having to force herself to have those feelings. So she just decided to not get involved in all that.

She’s very observant of her surroundings and can often easily tell when something is wrong. The others occasionally will come to her for advice.

She does have a small ability to be able to grow flowers. However, her flowers never look as though they were naturally created, always having some supernatural element to them. She doesn’t use that ability often though, as it’s hard for her to control.

Bobby Bearhug

Ah, the goddess of love. All different types of love, in fact. Familial, platonic, romantic, she knows it all.

She has a bow and quiver that had been passed down for centuries by different love gods in her line. There are different types of arrows. Arrows that can make you fall in different types of love, and arrows that can make you feel hatred. And then she just has normal arrows lmao.

You must be wondering if she returns Hoppy’s feelings for her? If so, yup, she does. However, despite being the literal goddess of romance, she has no clue that Hoppy returns her feelings. In all honesty, she thinks that Hoppy is too good for her, and way out of her league. Even though Hoppy literally blushes at every single word she says, this girl does not have a clue. And she then precedes to laugh about how Bubba is completely clueless about Kickin’s feelings towards him. It causes everybody in the room to facepalm.

Bobby has the power to charm anybody into doing her bidding. Flutter her eyelashes just a little bit and the mortals will be all over her. It even works on her fellow gods, although not even nearly as strong. She so takes advantage of this.

Bobby is the therapist friend. She’s extremely close with DogDay, as she’s the only one that he feels safe enough around to vent his frustrations. Well, and CatNap of course. All of the gods tend to come to Bobby for advice and love when they need it. Sometimes though, Bobby gets frustrated that she doesn’t get that kind of out in return. She thinks that she’s selfish for that though, so she tends to bury her feelings.

DogDay and CatNap are next!

[machatheo]

enhypen on them asking you out

genre: fluff ofc !!

a/n: + bit of backstory on how you both met too! p.s. bullet points get progressively longer by member lmao

heeseung

unlike heeseung’s presence whereas he looks pretty confident of himself, he’s actually extremely scared when he asks you out after one of his basketball games

awkwardly shifts on both of his feet while he waits for you to answer him, and when you say yes, he’s like ‘yeah good’ in the most normal voice he could muster (it ends up coming out as a stutter anyways)

on the first date, he brings you a flower bouquet with your favorite flowers (what a gentleman)

the place heeseung reserved to have dinner suddenly canceled so you both go on a late night walk instead

and then it starts to rain

heeseung is so so frustrated with himself because everything is going wrong and not how he expected

so he already feels like he messed up everything with you and you’ll never want to go on another date or even see him again

like he really really wants to impress you

but it just doesn’t according to plan

on the other hand, you can see right through him and secretly find him very cute with how hard he tries

and that’s honestly enough to make you fall harder

you do, in fact, assure that everything was amazing by giving heeseung a kiss on the cheek when you part

heeseung leaves all giddy and happy and red to his cheeks

jay

you meet him in one of your cooking classes after realizing that burning an omelette definitely meant there was something wrong with you

the twist, jay is the chef

and you keep messing up in his class so bad that jay can’t help but take pity on you

so he promises himself to take more of his time to help you but also because he finds you very pretty

so one day he’s like ‘oh there’s one free spot on this day so you should come’

and you are more than glad to agree because your cooking skills are pretty much non existent and you need them if you will need to survive alone

so you go and to your surprise, it’s literally just you and him

jay is not even in his work clothes so you get suspicious

“let’s call this a date”

if you could, you’d probably evaporate because hello!! you got yourself a free cooking class and a hot chef??

jay waits patiently for your answer because he’s not really sure if you’re actually into him like the way he’s into you

but you break his overthinking by yelling a “hell yeah!” and then internally facepalming because you probably just embarrassed yourself even more

jay only chuckles and then ‘in the most romantic way ever’ teaches you how to cook a proper omelette

jake

jake being your neighbor meant that you’d see him practically every day

he lives across your street but you never really talked with him that much other than small chitchat there and there

lately you’ve been extremely down and your only way to calm yourself is tending to your small garden (in your defense, it’s therapeutic)

sometimes you sit there for hours just to do anything than to think about all the problems

lately you’ve been finding flowers that you’re sure you do not grow in your garden

but you being you and romanticizing every single thing in your life, do not throw them out and rather collect them by putting them in a vase with water to keep them alive

soon those flowers come with little notes attached to them (‘you’re pretty :)’ ‘don’t be sad, you’re doing great’ and such)

you think it’s cute whoever’s doing that but then also now you really want to find out who is doing this

later when you do your usual ‘going around the neighborhood and asking if anyone has any dead plants they want to bring back to life’ (your neighbors are actually very glad you do this lol)

you come to jake’s and then notice he has those exact flowers growing on his porch

and you’re like well how did i not notice this

so when he opens the door, you don’t ask the usual but inquire him about the flowers instead

“took you long enough to figure this out”

for some reason you blush because jake is not reacting the way you thought he would be: embarrassed that he got caught

then he’s like “oh! i would’ve brought you this flower next” and then promptly disappears to come back with a new flower and a note

and it says ‘i really like you’

you’re actually very glad to see that because long story short, you’ve had your eyes on jake for quite some time now

sunghoon

it’s your birthday so your friends bring you to an ice rink to fulfill your ‘never will try this because you’re scared’ activities

you’re not that excited because, obviously, you hate not being able to properly balance yourself and now doing that on ice? no, thank you

but you’re still there and moments later you’re holding yourself up for dear life on one of the fences

you moved like two inches while all your friends seemingly forgot about your existence and are fleeting around the rink without care

and then, your knight in shining armor, or more like this very tall guy, comes to your side and holds out his hands

“need a hand?”

you’re like yes pls because your legs shake and slide across the ice with every single move

later you find out his name is sunghoon and he works at the ice rink by helping people while also being some serious ice skater himself

he gives you one of those penguin things children use to learn how to skate and then you tell him he kinda looks like one

he laughs and says because it’s your birthday, he’ll take that as a compliment

basically because of sunghoon, you keep coming back to the ice rink

and then one day there’s no penguin, no people, just you and sunghoon

you’re confused until he says it’s because he wants there to be no distractions

so you skate with him and you do get better time by time

“sorry i lied, i just wanted to spend more time with you alone”

and you’re like holy moly, this guy likes you back

so it truly was an unofficial date but you consider it as one because you think that’s where it all started

sunoo

you and sunoo have been besties for as long as you can remember

you share the same humor, the same judging people look and just in general, have a lot of similarities

you really think the universe couldn’t have assigned a better friend than sunoo

but you also hate the universe for giving you sunoo as a friend because you also kinda like him

but alas, he’ll never know because you’ll never tell him

then comes days when sunoo starts acting weird, cue ignoring your text messages, hanging out with you less

in sunoo’s perspective, he doesn’t do it on purpose, he’s just freaking out because of his new found feelings towards you so he goes to other people to get some insight on how to deal with this

you’re actually quite hurt because you don’t know what’s happening and keep thinking it’s because sunoo just lost interest in you

but then you also don’t want to back down, so you corner sunoo and don’t let him leave until he tells you what’s wrong

it takes him a bit to open up

and when he starts with “i don’t want this to ruin our friendship…” you get the worst feeling in your chest ever

because it really can go two ways: one, he’s so done with you, or two, he’s so in love with you

nevertheless, both of those options seem unlikely to you

but then he’s like, “so the thing is i realized that i like you”

and you’re absolutely taken back

and you hug him in an instant and sunoo’s very confused but he hugs you back

when you tell him your own feelings, both of you don’t really know how to start being in a relationship

because you’ve been friends for so long

but it does come naturally and doesn’t feel weird when you lean in to kiss your best friend

jungwon

jungwon is your self-proclaimed college enemy!!

or more like your competitor in every single academic activity

there’s a quiz going on? best believe you’ll ace it and leave jungwon in the crumbs

but it’s hard because jungwon is also very competitive and as soon as he realizes you’re trying to pass him, he bites back

so you always bicker whenever there’s a debate going on, or just in general

your teachers don’t see the ongoing dilemma but rather are so proud of both of your achievements

and that annoys you because in your book, you’re better than jungwon

so when the annual debate of two different colleges happens, you’re put together with jungwon as your partner to defend your case

and it’s crazy because you simply can’t stand being alone with jungwon, especially having to come up with the same objectives for the debate

lo and behold, you decide to put your differences aside and actually get some work done

which comes as a surprise because bickering aside, you can actually talk with jungwon as a normal human being

and it’s not that… bad anymore

you even catch yourself laughing and giggling at his stupid jokes

after the debate is over and you both absolutely destroy the other team with your planned out tactics, you and jungwon exit the building with a new kind of view of each other

one which has jungwon turning to you and asking you out on a date

and you don’t even have any thoughts of laughing in his face or making fun of him because you immediately say yes

niki

niki always comes around to your house to hang out with your older brother, jake

and your brother, being absolutely protective of you, doesn’t let anyone near you

including niki, even though he’s his friend

but you are infatuated by niki so you always try and get a peak whenever they’re playing games in the living room

because you think he’s very cute and you know he’s nice and would treat you good and you might like him now

so your only job now is to persuade jake to let you talk with niki

and it’s hard bc jake is glued to his hip like they’re related, and not you and him

on the other hand, niki also has got his eyes on you and one day when jake goes to the bathroom, niki puts up his best flirting game to get a reaction out of you

you, of course, immediately get swooned

and flirt back

both of you are in your own little world when jake comes back, sees you two together, then pulls you away and locks himself and niki in his room

you’re a bit disappointed because now you know you both like each other but jake is being an ass about it

and you’re pretty sure he knows it too

so while you throw a tantrum in your head, niki appears next to you

“jake gave me the green light”

you stare at him and he stares at you, and you both just stare at each other

but then there’s a big smile on your face as you realize the wall of jake has been lifted

it feels nice when your fingers finally intertwine with niki’s

𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐲 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐳𝐚, 𝐂𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐨𝐲 𝐁𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐩 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

note: Alejandro Thee Stallion's fine ass is gonna carry all that weight. Or something like that. But you and Rudy are there to help lessen the load. Somewhat. lmao. Anywho, hope y'all enjoy it!

So, uh... yeah, you're in a relationship. With two men. Two very handsome men at that. One of them is a phenomenal leader through and through. The other is damn good at having said leader's back and keeping things going when shit goes down. And making his leader facepalm or groan inwardly more often than not.

Okay, you can admit you play a role in that, what with you encouraging and laughing at Rudy's corny ass jokes. But that kind of humor suits Rudy, though, and Alejandro does get a chuckle or two out at the absurdity of his jokes.

Contrast that with your... naughtier sense of humor. Naughty enough that Alejandro and Rudy cannot and will not acknowledge the glint in your eye every time you hear something because they KNOW you'll turn into a double entendre or something similar.

To date, Alejandro has fallen victim to this to the point that he's lost count and you get him every. single. fucking. time. (e.x. - "My men are inside!" "...of me." "....") Rudy usually clears his throat to keep from laughing but just know he wants to guffaw so goddamn bad. Alejandro shooting you two a glare doesn't help, either.

Speaking of humor, you and Rudy also have inside jokes. Which may or may not be inspired by Alejandro. And Valeria. Or some of the other members of Los Vaqueros. Sometimes. Okay, fine, fuck it, a normal amount of times.

Let's talk about the fact that you and Rudy love to watch telenovelas (they are fucking amazing and I stand ten toes down on this) and other dramas in order to de-stress from the day. Alejandro doesn't watch so much as he uses it (and you two) as white noise. He's the one who's reclining on the couch with a sleep mask on just relaxing. No, he isn't sleeping. He's listening to everything. It helps him to be in the present.

Rudy is the one who usually cooks. Because of reasons. And because his food is fucking delicious.

When he's really tired, Alejandro will practically bury himself under the cover. And will not move for the rest of the night. His bed hair is also everything and you managed to snap a picture of it once. He was not impressed.

Doesn't matter what time of the year it is, Rudy almost always gets hot in the middle of the night and so he'll sleep under the sheets with the covers pulled back (because y'all just had to insist on having a thick-ass comforter).

You tend to sometimes sleep with your hand on top of Rudy's head because... you don't know. Your only explanation is that it's comfortable up there. Or something like that.

Their names on your phone are Rue and Lee. Because he refused to accept Allie. Or Lee Lee ("Heh. I think the name's fine." "No."). He'll take handsome, though (because he's handsome). Rudy let Lee Lee slip out one time, you were crying of laughter, and Alejandro gave y'all the silent treatment for the rest of the day. Unless he was giving orders, that is. Other than that, he'd glare at you or Rudy every time you called out to him.

Mafia! Ateez Reaction: They take you shopping for your wedding, but the other members crash your session

Summary: Since the day the boys planned the wedding, everything was going just perfect! Well, that is until they agreed to let the others help, by giving them small tasks, but this is Ateez :”) there is no way they will not be part of the main event. (I also watch too much “say yes to the dress” if you can’t tell, lmao).

CW: none really, just general crack, weddings, and fluff, men in dresses lmfao, mafia themes, gifs not mine, enjoy!

Hongjoong:

Now he had warned the members, Woosan specifically, that today was about you, and that no shenanigans would be tolerated. He allowed them to ride in the car, and warned them to stay there or they would be “severely punished. But in the middle of your cake testing, the two mischievous boys had snuck into the shop, sneaking in tastes of frosting here and there, and posing as a couple in need of a cake as they trailed not far behind you. You were the first to notice, and tried not to blow their cover as you held back a laugh, but all that was shattered when Wooyoung knocked over a vase, catching the attention of everyone in the shop. Hongjoong facepalmed as San dragged Wooyoung out of the shop.

“How about chocolate-”

CRASH!! 

“WOOYOUNG YOU IDIOT!”

Seonghwa:

Seonghwa is the wedding planner of all wedding planners. He kept everything and everyone on schedule, and everyone was in line. Well, almost everyone. Mingi and Hongjoong wanted to come to the bridal boutique so that Seonghwa “wouldn’t have you looking like an old woman,” which got them a resounding no. “Stick to the flowers.” Seonghwa was “quite capable of making an appropriate selection,” but since this would be your day, it would be your choice. What Seonghwa didn’t anticipate was the fact that the boutique was owned by none other than Mingi’s sister. They wound up shooing Seonghwa away as they helped you find a perfect dress (as expected of the two fashionistas).

“I was thinking something more tradition- what the hell are you two doing here?!”

“This shop does say “Song’s Bridal” on the sign bud”

“I hate you so much”

Yunho:

Your day with Yunho was going great! You were not only wedding dress shopping, but having a self care day since the stress of mafia life could be quite draining. Yunho was enjoying himself as much, if not more, than you. That is, until it was time for you to try on the second dress you picked out. Ever the jokester, Yunho had decided that he too would put on a dress “fit for a queen,” and surprise you when you came back out. But he came out a little later than you, finding his bride to be laughing along with Yeosang and Jongho, who were snapping pictures. 

“Damn, I didn’t know there were two brides”

“KANG YEOSANG YOU BETTER NOT POST THOSE ANYWHERE”

Yeosang:

Members crashing his cake tasting? Nope, it wasn’t happening. He had asked San to help keep the boys away from the appointment, and San was determined to be the best helper... except for when it came to Seonghwa and Yunho. They gave him puppy eyes (and $5) and that's all it took for them to weasel their way into the wedding decisions. You noticed them, taking heed of the cake flavors they silently pointed out to you, surprising Yeosang as he knew they weren’t flavors you usually picked. He knew something was amiss the minute you chose to taste a mint chocolate flavor. He glanced up to see Yunho and Seonghwa dying of laughter in the kitchen window. You could practically see the steam coming off his ears as he charged towards them.

“I SWEAR I’M GONNA KILL YOU TWO!”

“You’ve got to catch us first, chicken boy!” (Seonghwa)

San:

San had banned all members from your bridal appointment, wanting you to have a stress free day. He sat in the parlor, reading a magazine as he waited for you to pick the perfect gown. However, he didn’t expect to see such a tall bridesmaid come striding out of the back room and onto the runway in front of him- was that Mingi?! San whipped his head around in confusion, as Yunho also came striding out in a bridesmaid dress, much to the amusement of the consultant. San let out an indignant cry. “Where is my bride?” San fake cried as the consultant went to retrieve you. You’d sent out the boys as a distraction, giggling when the consultant brought you out. 

“Aww look Yunho, San melted!”

“Song Mingi, I’m going to eat your leftover food out of the fridge.”

Mingi:

Decoration and cake flavor shopping? He could do that. He didn’t even tell anyone he planned to go. He just got up, got dressed, and followed you out of the door. But Jongho and Wooyoung were right on your tails. Mingi knew they were following along, but he didn’t address them until it was time to go cake tasting. “What are you idiots doing?” He’d scowl at them for interrupting his personal time with you, as he didn’t get much of it these days. “We just wanted to be a part of it. It’s the most important event of your lives.” You feel bad for them, and ask Mingi to let them tag along. The four of you tasted cake together, and all was well, until you went for decorations. The youngest members decided they’d redecorate the store... needless to say, you all wound up kicked out, but all of you had pretty flower crowns, so it didn’t bother you too much.

“And this is why you two stay at home.”

“No Mingi, this is why you have no taste for interior design.”

Wooyoung:

Hongjoong and San were hot on your tails through the bridal shop, and you giggled as Wooyoung pulled you through the shop, past countless dressing rooms and fittings, your own bridal appointment momentarily forgotten. They were desperate to put you in a dress they saw in the window that Wooyoung thought was hideous. They chased you until Wooyoung pulled you both into a room filled with dresses, lace and ruffles everywhere. You held onto your robe tightly as Wooyoung spun to face you. “I think we’re in the clear babe. I think this is the alterations room” “You got that right mister!” He jumped in fright as two older ladies, who looked like they ran the place addressed him. They were sitting at their desks, watching the whole thing unfold before them. You explained the situation, and they laughed, agreeing to help. 

“You youngsters running in the hallway of my store! Yes you! If you’re gonna carry around my dresses, I’ve work for you to do in here!”

Jongho:

Jongho sighed, looking at the sight before him. The entire squad was begging to go with you to your first dress fitting, having been banned from most of Jongho’s wedding plans due to their usual shenanigans. He’d been very good at avoiding them up until this point, but you were six months pregnant with twins now, which meant your movements were significantly slower, and your heart was considerably bigger. You felt pity for them, pouting at Jongho to let them go if they promised to behave. He’d agreed, but now he was watching an all out brawl in the bridal shop, because the boys heard someone say you looked like a whale, which had hurt your feelings. Jongho was holding you close while  the rest of the boys defended their nieces/nephews. 

“You’re not so cute yourself sweetheart! Try looking in a mirror without breaking it, then you’ll have a more honest opinion about yourself.” Jongho sighed again. They were going to get kicked out, but at least your dress had fit well.

matty would def tease her abt that crush after they got together

matty picks you up from your cousin's baby shower because you're staying at his that night, and you leave her house carrying an actual shoebox worth of pictures of you and her as kids that your uncle found while he was looking for baby pics of her lmao. of course, as soon as you get to matty's, he's like "let me see them! i wanna see how cute you were!", so you make a cuppa and get settled in his arms on the couch to look through everything. he gets proper emo at the pics of you as a toddler and on your first day at school (yes, his mind definitely starts wandering into daydreams of the two of you having a little girl that's your spitting image lol), he giggles at the cringe pre-teen pics of you, and smiles at your early teenage emo phase pics (he's like "i kinda fuck with the black lipstick actually. bring it back?", and you're like "absolutely not, darling" lol). and then, you come across some pics of your cousin coming to see you before your high school leavers do/prom - as much as you're like "oh god lol" at the photos of you drinking apple sourz straight from the bottle before you left, because you were seventeen and you couldn't drink at the event, you smile quite wistfully and say "i felt really pretty that day. it was nice". matty kisses your shoulder and says "how old were you?", and when you tell him he's like "ohhhhhhh, so THAT'S what you looked like when you developed a crush on me. cool"; you turn to look at him in total panic like "my brothers did NOT fucking tell you that", and when matty only responds with a sheepish grin you facepalm like "how long have you known? fucksake". and matty's like "😬 since the day i met them at your birthday", and you wail "oh my GOD that was before we were a THING jesus CHRIST that's so embarrassing" - matty can't help but laugh quietly as he pulls you into a hug like "no, baby, it's sweet! i quite like hearing that i was your little teenage dream, honestly", and you pull back like "shut up it's cringe. and it's not the reason i applied for my job!!". matty strokes your face like "i know that, sweetheart, i know you're smart enough to not do anything for a man lmao", and then he kisses your cheeks to make you laugh before he pulls back and looks at you a bit flirtily like "and if it's any consolation, seventeen-year-old me would have fucking crawled over broken glass if i thought seventeen-year-old you would've even LOOKED at me. really. and i'd do it right now if you asked me to, honestly. i have a massive crush on you, in case you hadn't noticed. and i had it before i knew you fancied me back then!" - you grab his face like "you're an idiot, healy. but thank you", and matty's like "and i'm YOUR idiot. and proud of it" lmao <3

ooc | Finn & Fiona

Finn spends a lot of time complaining about his siblings, and I feel like he probably complains the most about Fiona (because he loves her best). To the point, honestly, when no one (probably least of all Fiona) takes him seriously when he does lmao

Some of Finn's favorite sayings:

No, I don't want to do that (does it)

I will absolutely not agree to that! (agrees to it)

Remember how much of a headache it was last time we did that? (he does ... agrees to it a second time, anyway)

Finn's main reason for being stubborn when it comes to following Fiona anyway is that, tbh, he's kinda lazy?? Finn's perfect schedule would allow for him to sleep in until at least noon and then laze about until four or five, afterwhich he would finally get dressed, eat something, and then head out to a tavern where he could drink and flirt and gamble and stay up until all hours of the night, returning home just after sunrise, when he could do it all again.

I feel like Fiona's perfect day is probably much more active (and productive) and Finn doesn't want to get pulled from his bed to go down to the beach or putting in all the time and effort in pulling some elaborate prank on Cormac. And yeah, FInn is just ~exhausted~ by Fiona half the time (who I feel like always has lots of energy??!)

BUT as much as Finn complains about her and just wants her to leave him alone, she's also his favorite person in the world/literally his other half and when he DOES get a day's peace away from her, he misses her terribly and is half depressed about it and mopes about but has a list of reasons that do NOT involve Fiona as to why he's having a bad day.

You won't hear him say it, but Fiona literally is everything to him and he wouldn't trade their shenanigans for anything!! (Don't let him fool you, he might complain a LOT about how Fiona got him ~roped into being in the resistance~ but he also is lowkey proud of that, too!!)

Also, I feel like I read somewhere that you said that Fiona is pretty good w/ a sword and has gotten her brother out of some scrapes before??? Which I feel is COMPLETELY true!! Finn is a pretty good gambler and he is smart about it, but there is still a lot of luck involved and he's been on the wrong end of bets gone wrong and ngl he's also tried to hustle people one just ... should nOT try to hustle and he's gotten himself into some really bad scrapes before and has literally needed his younger sister to help him fight his way out #facepalm (he does not acknowledge this btw). I also think that FIona is probably a better swordsmen than he is hahaha (something else he doesn't acknowledge)

[wetcatspellcaster]

Congratulations on finishing Pieces! This was an amazing journey, and I can't wait to go on another one with your writing, and continue those that are already going!

It's incredible how much work you had put in it, it still blows my mind how nicely everything resolved, how satisfactory, because for the life of me I could never imagine Rose being with Ascended on her own violation. And this way, there is still so much angst, but now with promise they are alright anyway, and they are working on their traumas together. It's so reassuring.

And, as to fill the void, I reread An Honest Lie, and notices just how spontaneous Rose is with Astarion there. Just like in the final chapter of Pieces 😭 Just how much they inspire each other, how they make each other better, supporting and caring, not without hiccups of course, because everyone needs something to grow, and just. Oof. Love them.

I adore how happy they are together, still awkward and still gentle, still learning to be together ❤️❤️❤️

Also. Rose's parents. Love them. How sweet and open they are, I can just imagine how they will spoil Astarion now, and how much blush there will be and facepalms from Rose, and teasing from Astarion.

I wish those two the very best, and thank you again and again for braving this fic and taking risks. It was an unbelievably fulfilling read. Thank you so much, dear author! ❤️❤️❤️

hey beloved, thank you so much for messaging, dear reader!! :D I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

Your comment about 'how nicely everything resolved' is very interesting to me :) I think this is the very funny thing about having an outline. It was also the very strange thing of having a story get popular while in progress, during a period of active fandom (before, I was more used to the standard 'people only really start reading once it's a complete work so that they can binge'). I think I could let Pieces as 'dark' as it did, in places (I mean, other works actually go there, I just hint heavily like a pussy lmao), bc I knew my destination. I knew about Imelda Frostsong lmfao. So when people were like "I see no possible happy ending" I was like "I literally have it written down in my gdocs babygirl don't worry!!!!". I don't mean this in a bad way! more just a wonderful difference between writing, reading a complete story, and reading a serially updating version of the story.

All this to say, I'm so glad other people can now have the same experience I did, and read all of the angsty bits knowing what will eventually come :)

I'm hoping to update An Honest Lie sometime this week, I'm really happy to hear you enjoy it. It's nice to move back to a default dynamic in away - I love AUs for the thought experiment of it all, but making new slightly altered versions of a character means that the OG ones feel like coming home! It was nice to get the Pieces timeline closer to that original dynamic in the final chapter, and it's nice to return to it generally for a bit to play around with :D

[theintrovertbean]

Hello there! I've never done a request in my life so this is a first

Your writing is great and I've decided trust you with a quest most frivolous, quill-master 🫡

Could you do a "Nadia with a female reader who is very - and I mean very - extraverted, bold, outspoken (but not in a dumb way 💀), kind of comedy master who just can't be intimidated even by the gods themselves?" LMAO I think I'm kinda bad at this but you feel what I'm trying to say right? You know like that one player in D&D who has maxed out charisma 🤓

And perhaps, if you feel like it, how that would work out in their bedroom dynamics?

ANYWAYS, thanks for being one of the last people on this app who make outstanding Nadia content AND THANKS FOR THE ATTENTION TOO OKAY BYE

This is kinda long I'm so sorry 💀

Hello Beatriz 👀 If I may call you that.

It always warms my heart when someone trusts me with their first request, so thank you, I hope I did alright 😭❤

This ended up being longer than I expected. Like, idk how? I wrote a sentence and panicked for like two hours because I had no idea what else to write, and then boom, it was there? I guess that means it's a very good ask 😎

I included a bit of spice, btw. Enjoy!

Ohh and I don't mind the long ask. On the contrary 👀

Nadia x Extroverted Fem!Reader

It is no secret that the Countess is quite an introverted woman, so your extroverted nature was a bit foreign to her at first. She felt insecure because what if you think she's not fun enough? Of course, no one would ever think that, but it took a few hugs and kisses to make Nadia feel alright again.

You tend to be bolder when it comes to flirting, which makes Nadia react in the cutest way possible. First, she stares at you for a second, gears turning in her head, but no words come out for a moment, and then she replies with something even bolder. What happens after that? You two keep flirting until one of you dies from blushing too hard.

Late-night talks with you two are to die for. Nadia is normally more reserved, but once you retire to her bedroom and start talking about anything and everything? That's like the best thing ever. And Nadia also loves listening to you talk. She admires you with so much love in her eyes whenever you open your mouth.

And the jokes. Oh my gayness, the jokes! Somehow, you find a way to make Nadia laugh all the time. You find out very early that the Countess snorts.

Imagine a meeting in the palace. The Court being the Court, they bring up an issue that makes no sense, and they have a whole argument about it. Nadia sits there, mentally facepalming herself, when you lean close and whisper something into her ear. The Countess ends up running out of the meeting room because of how hard she is laughing. That happens at least once a week.

You have never had any issues with socializing, so you have a lot of friends (or at least more than Nadia does). Nadia, however, spent most of her life alone, and when you introduced her to your friends, she felt very excited but also nervous. When everyone went home, Nadia almost cried in happiness because of how much fun she had with your friend group.

Every single time someone new shows up at the palace to meet the Countess, you yeet yourself to them because you just can't wait to meet them no matter who they are. By the time the person gets to meet Nadia, you have become besties with them, and they also invite you to the next family gathering to meet their sixty-nine relatives. Needless to say, Nadia is impressed.

Nadia admires that you can get along with anyone. And also that you fear no one, but it scares Nadi a bit sometimes.

She loves that you're not intimidated by her, tho. Most people are, so it's very refreshing for her.

There are a few cases when you are being a little too bold. For example, with a person who vastly outranks you and isn't very interested in a friendly chat. Nadia stands behind you, and puts her hands on your shoulders, giving them a gentle squeeze. "Y/N, my darling, how about you let me handle this one?" And everything about Nadia is just so comforting that you are immediately like, "Yes, my love, anything you want."

You might get in trouble sometimes, but Nadia always saves your ass.

Speaking of your ass. You're getting spanked as punishment whenever you're being too bold. You might be doing it on purpose, and I can't blame you.

You are flirting with each other all the damn time, which leads to either one of these outcomes: 1. You have quickies whenever and wherever you can, even if it means hiding somewhere in public. As long as Nadia doesn't make you moan too loud, it's all good. 2. You tease each other all day, and then as soon as you retire to Nadia's bedroom, your clothes are suddenly gone, and you two have passionate sex until you're both completely exhausted.

Nadia is a dom, and even an extroverted partner can't change that. However, your boldness is appreciated. Whisper something lewd into Nadia's ear, and you're going to find yourself tied to her bed in no time. The way you frustrate her with your words and inappropriate touching drives her wild.

And fuck. The dirty talk. It's unholy, it's hot as fuck, and you're both loving it. You make her even more vocal than she already is.

Nadia honestly finds it adorable if you're a very submissive person despite how bold you tend to be. She teases you about it, and it makes you squirm and whimper whenever she mentions it during sex.

hello! can i request hinata opening his locker on valentines day and being surprised by reader's gift? (something like a huge teddy bear, takes up the whole locker lmao) thank you!

❅ A/N: Thank you for the request! I'm sorry if it's short and looks rushed I just finished my exam and I've got another tomorrow 😭😭😭 I hope you still enjoyed it though! I love this adorable little tangerine so much! I added a little more something into it hope you don't mind

Sunshine on Valentines Day

❅Genre : Fluff, Crack ❅Pairings:  Hinata x Reader ❅Warnings: none

It was the day before the long awaited Valentines day. The team was currently taking a break from their volleyball practice.

“Watcha getting Y/N for valentines day tomorrow?” Nishinoya asked curiously his face laced with a smug smile

“Huh get Y/N what?” Hinata replied full of confusion

“For Valentines Day! It’s tomorrow!” Nishinoya returned the look of confusion back

“WHAT IT’S VALENTINE’S DAY TOMORROW?” Hinata gasped in surprise earning a sassy “Idiot” from Tsukishima

“How do you not know that you’re their boyfriend” Kageyama gave the tangerine a disappointed look

“Because there’s only air, volleyball and stupidity inside that pea brain” Tsukishima snickered pissing off the usually happy go lucky middle blocker

“Calm down” Daichi sighed as Hinata grumpily sits down “You can think of a gift later after we’re finished with practice” Daichi continued as Hinata nodded

After practice the team decided to help the poor orange gremlin with the pursuit of finding the best gift for Valentines Day by taking him to the mall.

“What should I get Y/N for valentines day?” Hinata pondered as they walked throughout the mall

“Chocolates and flowers those are essentials so if you want a special one you’ve got to think bigger” Suga advised

“Yeah! Give her those but those shouldn’t be your only gifts!” Nishinoya guided excitedly

“You’ve probably already listed everything he was gonna give them” Tsukishima sneered as Hinata glares at him

“That wasn’t my only ideas!” Hinata pouted angrily

“Well what other things did you think of giving her” Yamaguchi asked everything goes silent as everyone looks at the tangerine

“You didn’t think of anything else did you” Daichi sighed

“No!” Hinata said as Daichi raised an eyebrow “Yeah that’s all i got” Hinata looked down as everyone facepalmed

“We’re gonna be here all day” Suga sighed

“Yeah especially since a lotta people are gonna give chocolates to Y/N like last year” Asahi chuckled nervously

“HUH? WHAT!?” Hinata yelled in astonishment

“Well you’re not the only one who gives them gifts, so you gotta make yours stand out from the rest” Kiyoko explained making the boy think long and hard before yelling in excitement

“I GOT IT!” Hinata yelled excitedly

“What?” They all asked

“No need to think about you can all go home” Hinata said quickly as he ran off

“Wait you didn’t- and he’s off and away” Suga sighed

“He’s never at a time with no energy huh?” Asahi chuckled

“Yeah he got it from me!” Nishinoya said prouldy

“Isn’t Y/N gonna surprise him too?” Yamaguchi asked

“Yeah I guess it’s a double surprise then” Yachi chuckled

The next day is the long awaited Valentines Day. Hinata decided to prepare immedietly going to surprise you before going to class. As he opened the locker he greeted with party poppers and a giant teddy bear which squashes him.

“WHAT THE HECK IS THIS!” Hinata yelled in surprise though the noise was suppressed from the bears weight and size

“SURPRISE! HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!” you smiled brightly

“WHAT? WHERE DID YOU COME FROM?” He yelled unable to hear you

“Oh! Let me help you up!” you giggled pushing the bear aside

“What did you say earlier?” Hinata asked as you helped him get up 

“Surprise Happy Valentine’s Day!” You smiled

“Thanks! This bear is huge!” he said excitedly

“Well I thought it be ironic to get you something so big since you’re pretty small” you teased making him pout

“I’m not small!” He argued making you laugh

“Sorry but you love it don’t you?” You said suggestively as he gives you a look of defeat

“Yeah…” Hinata said with defeat

“Why are you dressed up like that?” you looked at him with astonishment

“OH RIGHT! Wait here!” Hinata instructed 

“Okay?” You said as he ran off somewhere

“YOU FORGOT THE- and he’s gone” you sighed looking at the giant bear the size of you

A few minute of waiting and you get a phone call from Shoyo.

“Come to my locker!” He instructed once more as you followed dragging the teddy bear with you

Once you went to your locker you felt like you already knew what was gonna happen but you still opened the door

“HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!” Hinata yelled as you opened the locker making you scream in surprise

“Sorry did I scare you” Hinata chuckled as he helped you up

“I didn’t expect you to be in my locker I thought you’d be next to me” you chuckled still in a daze

“Well I wanted to give you a special gift for valentines day and what’s more special than me looking like a present!” Hinata explained excitedly as you scanned his clothes

His clothes were all in the theme of a gift as there was a hat on his head which looked exactly like the top of a present. Though you also saw some valentine theme on his clothes

“Oh that’s why you looked like that when you were at my locker” you chuckled

“I got you chocolates and your favorite flowers!” He smiled brightly

“Aww Thanks Shoyo! I love your gift!” you said tightly embracing the boy making his smile grow bigger

“You’re welcome!” He hugged back

“Wait I usually get chocolates and other stuff in my locker how’d you fit in all that?” You asked as the hallway goes silent

“I ate them all…” Hinata chuckled nervously making you giggle

“Well I guess theres no other gift to compete then” you teased

“Well those aren’t as good as my chocolates!” Hinata pouted making you giggle

“You left your teddy bear by the way” you said as you pushed the teddy bear towards him

“Thank you! Sorry for making you bring this huge thing all the way here” Hinata chuckled scratching your head “How am I gonna carry this home though?” Hinata questioned as you lifted your shoulders

“I dunno ask Tsukki he seems like he could carry it” you shrugged

“Don’t drag me into your lovey dovey shit” Tsukishima glared as he walked in the classroom making you laugh

“Well Happy Valentines Day! I gotta get to class” Hinata waved goodbye as you did the same

[kpopsickies]

I have absolutely 0 idea how many hours its been but how about a svt Jun fic where he's maybe allergic to smth and keeps sneezing from it and Minghao gets concerned? I'm a sucker for junhao lmao

sickie: Jun

caretaker: Minghao

This was fun to write

Hao p.o.v

I was bored, very bored. It felt like it had been the longest day ever. I sighed loudly and went in search of something to do. It wasn't long before I found Jun, he looked equally as bored as me. Sitting on the couch scrolling on his phone, but eyes unfocused and empty with boredom. "Jun?" I said, he flinched slightly, snapping back to focus. "what's up?"

"I'm bored. Let's go get food" He smiled and slid his phone into his pocket. "Sounds good. I was about to go insane" he said with a laugh. The two of us got ready and left. "I swear I was 2 seconds from insane" I said with a laugh. "same here. It's never that quiet in the dorm. But with the whole vocal and hiphop unit out it gets quiet." Jun said, he cleared his throat after. "So what do you want to eat?" he asked, clearing his throat a second time. "Honestly anything. I was more interested just getting out of the house" I said, "I know there's a really good korean bbq nearby, how does-" he paused, I glanced over at him, as I did he turned away, and brought his hands up to his face, "heKKtcha- ehh-kTcha- KKtcHa"

"Bless you"

"thanks-" he cleared his throat, "what was I saying?"

"Korean Bbq. Sounds good to me"

"Perfect" He sniffled and cleared his throat. "why do you keep doing that?" I asked, "doing what?" he asked, and cleared his throat. " THAT!" he still looked confused, "you keep clearing your throat."

"Oh, that" He laughed, "My throat itches"

"are you okay?"

"yeah, I'm not exactly sure why" He sniffled, he turned away from me again. "kKtcha- ehKt-CHA- hktchA"

"jeez dude, you okay?"

"yeah, nose is itchy, throat is itchy. Actually kinda everything is. I'm not sure what's wrong"

"Hope you're not getting sick" I said, I placed a hand on his forehead. "You don't feel warm. "Don't feel sick. Just itchy"

"Is it allergies?"

"I don't have any allergies, except for cats. And I haven't been around any" He said, he brought a fist up to his face and rubbed his nose. "That's strange" I looked around, just in case, but I also noticed his sweatshirt looked strange. "Who's jacket is that?" He looked a bit confused, "Isn't it yours?" he said giving me a strange look, "no, I've never seen it before."

"It was in your bag from yesterday"

"It's not mine" I said, "can I see it?" He took it off, I looked at it, "where did you say you found it?"

"Your bag"

"I must have grabbed someone else's at Inkigayo yesterday" I said turning the hoodie over my fingers. I handed it back to him. "Lets see if we can find out whose it is" I took my phone out, "it's definitely a guy's. It looks a bit small on you"

"That's because it is" he said, he took the hoodie back from me and put it on, "but it's warm and I'm cold" he sniffled and turned away from me and sneezed openly on the ground, "ktchA- hhktChaa"

"bless" he sniffled and mumbled a thanks. "so, from what I gathered, the boy groups there yesterday were txt, stray kids, nct DoJaeJung, and then Taeyang."

"Must be one of theirs. But I'm pretty sure it's not any of the TXT members. It's too small."

"could be Taeyang, it's hhKtchA- EktcHAa- the right size" He pulled out his phone, "And honestly any of the DoJaeJung members are the right height" He sniffled, I glanced over at him, I couldn't figure out why he was sneezing so much. I looked at the hoodie, and suddenly noticed a few white hairs. I facepalmed, "Jun take the jacket off" he looked confused, "why?"

"because, I just found something that will help narrow our options down" I explained as he pulled the jacket off and handed it to me. I plucked a single white hair off of the sleeve. "Cats"

"That's why I'm so sneezy!" He said, looking a bit annoyed but also amused. "Who of those people have cats?" I said, we both paused to think. "I know Lee Know from stray kids has cats. Multiple of them"

"Let's try there first then. And besides we're near the JYP building." He said, he rubbed his nose. "I'm glad we at least figured out what was making me sneeze" He said, he cleared his throat. "still itchy though" He said a bit exasperated. "Once we return the hoodie we can go back to the dorm and you can shower. Then we can get food."

"Sounds good, this is much more exciting than sitting around all day" he said with a laugh. I laughed too. "It would be a bit better if you weren't sneezing your head off with it"

"true, can't argue with you on that one" he said with an itchy sounding sniffle. "Do you by any chance have any tissues?" He asked, I shook my head. "sorry. Do you need to stop at a drug store and pick some up"

"Might be a good idea" he said, he rubbed his nose. "Alright, we'll stop on the way." I pulled out my phone and checked to make sure I was going in the right direction. We started off towards the JYP building. On the way we found a small corner store where we stopped to picked up a pack of tissues, "do you also need to get allergy medicine?"

"I have some at home. I think I'll be okay. Just don't get the jacket too close to me."

"Don't worry Jun, I'll protect you from the scary jacket" He rolled his eyes, I laughed. We left the store with the tissues. As soon as we were outside he took a few out and blew his nose. "Ugh"

"you okay?"

"yeah. Just itchy"

"Don't worry we're only about 10 minutes from the JYP building"

"okay, thanks"

"no problem" We walked to the building. Once we got there we stood awkwardly by the door, "How do we get inside?"

"I... don't know" I said, "Don't you have Yugyeom's phone number? He could let us in" He suggested, "He's not under JYP anymore though"

"oh yeah... he still might be able to help though"

"Maybe. We can try" I said, I took my phone out and clicked on Yugyeom's name, on the 3rd ring it picked up. "What's up Hao?"

"Can you help us get into the JYP building" The line was quiet for a second, "Hao, respectfully, what the fuck"

"Okay so basically yesterday on Inkigayo I accidentally grabbed someone's hoodie. And we're 90% sure it belongs to one of the Stray Kids members. So we're trying to get inside."

"got it" I heard him laugh a bit, "Let me call Chan, he'll be more help than me"

"thanks Yugs"

"No problem" I heard him laugh as he hung up,

Chan p.o.v

I was with my members practicing for our performance tomorrow evening, we were thankfully on break, when my phone rang. I was confused to see Yugyeom was calling me. "Hey hyung what's up?"

"This is a strange question, but can you let a friend of mine inside. They have to get inside, but I don't have access anymore."

"uh, okay" I said, "thanks" he hung up, but i heard his laughing as he did. I was confused, but saw no issue with it. I told my members that I would be right back and went downstairs to the front entry.

Surprised, was an understatement for what I saw. "Hello sunbaenim" I said bowing, "Hello Chan-ssi" Minghao said, "also, hyung is fine" Jun said. I noticed he looked a little worse for wear. "What brings you guys here?"

"uh, actually I think I accidentally picked up someone's hoodie at inkigayo yesterday" Minghao hyung said, he showed me the hoodie. I recognized it right away, "That's Minho's" I said, "come on, I'll show you where he is so you can give it to him" I led them through the halls to the practice room. "hey guys, I'm back. And I brought guests." The others all stopped what they were doing and politely greeted the seventeen members. "What are you guys doing here?" Jeongin asked, "um actually I accidentally stole your hoodie" Minghao said, as he pointed to Minho. Mingaho extended the folded sweatshirt to him, "Oh my God, thank you, I've been looking everywhere for it"

"Glad we could get it back to you" Jun said with a bright smile. "how did you guys figure out it was mine?" Minho asked, "We just looked up who the male idols that were at Inkigayo yesterday. There weren't a ton. Which helped. But then-"

"EhktcHA- KKtcHa hh-ehhktchA- eh-hktcHA"

"Bless you" We all said, Jun thanked us, "Thankfully we could use this-" Mingaho waved a hand over to Jun, "To conclude the owner of the hoodie also had cats"

"I KNEW IT" Hyunjin said, he turned to the seventeen members, "I was having a debate, because yesterday I was sneezing before out performance, and Minho hyung said there was no way it was just from the cat hair on his hoodie. This proves my point" Minho rolled his eyes, "Sorry for causing you to have an allergic reaction" Minho said to Jun, ignoring Hyunjin. "It's fine. Glad it helped us find who the hoodie belongs to." Jun said with a light laugh. "would you guys like to stick around for a little while?"

"thanks for the offer, but we've got to get going. It was nice talking to you guys" Minghao hyung said, "Hey, while you're here, why don't I get your numbers. Just in case something happens. Or if you guys ever want to do a dance collab definitely hit us up" Jun said, he set his phone down on a table, and each member took turns putting their number in. "Share them with me" Mingao hyung said, nudging his member. "I will" The two of them said goodbye and left the company.

Jun p.o.v

"I am so ready to get home, I'm so itchy I feel like I ate, drank, and bathed in poison ivy" I said, rubbing my eyes. "You can make it. It's only about 15 minutes. I know it's not ideal" Hao said, he squeezed my shoulder. We walked back to the dorm, and right away I went to take a shower, feeling relieved and better already.

The hot water loosened the congestion and brought itchiness with it. After showering I went off in search of Minghao. I found him in the living room, "I know we were planning on going out to eat, but I'm tired, and assumed you-"

"EHktCHa- kktcHHa"

"Bless you. I assumed you would be pretty worn out from your allergies, so I ordered food."

"sounds good. I am super worn out"

"should be here soon. In the meantime," he handed me the bottle of allergy pills. "thank you" I went to the kitchen and took them, and blew my nose. "That was fun. Despite my allergies acting up, it was fun to spend the day with you. And going on a little adventure"

"I had fun too" He said, "we should go on wild goose chases more often" he said, I laughed. "Agreed"

[crinkled-emotions]

Day 17: "Hey! Don't skip Taylor Swift, asshole!"

Ship: Hangman x OC (Savannah/Sav)

These will be posted eventually on AO3 I'm just taking my time lmao.

I really like posting these as a side story- I'm not planning to focus on Jake and Sav in the main deester storyline but I do like sharing what I'm thinking for the various characters and the difficulties they may face.

-

Savannah had seen chaos. She’d witnessed Jake’s family go through all the emotions in about thirty seconds, she’d watched Jake himself on base doing his usual duties but with the confidence and cocky attitude that drew her to him initially. She’d watched him drive the three and a half hours to Santa Barbara to drop off the twins only to have them climb back into his truck before he could make the trek back home which meant he’d had to organise with his ex a new custody agreement for the next couple of weeks.

This... this was chaos.

-

“Hey! Watch it!”

“Dad!”

Jake put down the suitcase he’d been taking out to the car, poking his head into the backseat. Of course, Austin had decided to put his little brother in a headlock and Ronan had squealed for his dad considering the twins had a good couple of years on him. Dallas was pressed to the other side of the car in her seat, her eyes on her book and not her brothers trying to kill each other.

“Austin, get off your brother.”

“But he-“

“-now.”

Savannah rounded the corner at the perfect time, poking her head into the car through Dallas’ open window.

“What’s wrong, boys?”

“I want the window seat! How come Austin always gets it?” Ronan complained loudly. Jake and Sav exchanged looks.

“You’re the smallest, Ronan, you’re the only one who can sit comfortably on the middle seat,” Savannah explained to her son. He crossed his arms.

“That’s not fair!”

“Ronan-“

“-alright, how about we make a deal?”

Both boys looked to their father, very interested in said deal. It was his best method of fixing arguments.

“Austin, you can have the window seat on the way; Ronan, the way back. Deal?”

“That’s bullshit,” Austin said very confidently for a ten year old. Jake blinked and Savannah had to turn away to stifle her laughter.

“Alright, I get it, you’ve been hanging out with your Uncle Javy too much. Mind the language, buddy. What do you think would be fair, Austin?”

“I want the window seat the whole way- why can’t Dallas swap with Ronan?”

“Leave your sister out of this,” Jake said patiently, “and work with me here. Ronan wants the window seat too, why don’t you want to share with him?”

“The middle seat’s too small!” Austin bellowed, scaring Dallas. Savannah sucked in a breath, opening the car door.

“New plan; Dallas, honey, could you hop out for me?”

She did as asked. Savannah rounded the corner to the back of the car and pulled the suitcases out, folding down the seventh seat then gesturing for Dallas to take the sixth in the very back.

“Do you want to sit in the back? Give you some space from the boys.”

“I want the back seat!” Ronan yelled, arms crossing over his chest. Jake facepalmed.

“Kid, sometimes you just have to take the loss. Now you all get window seats.”

“But dad-“

“-ah! We are not starting the roadtrip with tantrums. You either take the window seat or you can go stay with uncle Roos and aunt Dee.”

Ronan stomped his foot, about to have the world’s best tantrum for a five year old, and Jake promptly scooped him out of the car to talk to him. Savannah brushed a hand over Dallas’ hair.

“Okay, Dal?”

“Okay,” she muttered, “just want to go. Does he have to have a meltdown about everything?”

“I know it’s annoying, Dallas,” Sav reassured, “but he’s five and everything is a lot when you’re five.”

Dallas crossed her arms over her chest but didn’t push it further, climbing into the seat offered to her and putting her earbuds in. When Ronan came back around with Jake he happily hopped into the other seat with window views and Jake winked at Savannah.

-

For some reason neither adult could explain, they’d decided to drive back to Texas rather than fly with all three kids to go and see Jake’s youngest sister graduate from college. Bailey was a force of nature and she’d managed to graduate with great marks for what she’d been through in the last three years. Now, she was applying to grad schools and her family had cut her off as they had Jake fifteen years ago. There was no discussion of going to see them whilst in Texas; they hadn’t called or visited since Ronan was two and that was the way it was going to stay. Bailey often stayed with her brother on her semester breaks, working in coffee shops in San Diego or babysitting for the Daggers. She often looked to Jake for advice faster than any of her other siblings and it showed in their bond.

The first full day of driving they reached the other side of Tucson, Arizona and called it quits; the simple reason being Ronan and Austin hadn’t stopped their squabbling and it was making both parents twitch. Poor Dallas had put her earbuds in and wasn’t speaking to either of her brothers for the time being. She looked to her stepmother helplessly when they got particularly loud, overwhelmed, and Sav had sent her a sympathetic look in response before reaching over to touch Jake’s arm.

“Wanna stop for tonight? It’s warm enough; the kids could go swimming in the hotel pool.”

Jake had agreed and they’d pulled into the first chain hotel they could find, making sure there were enough beds so that the kids wouldn’t have to share or Ronan wouldn’t be stuck between his parents. The kids immediately got changed and Sav stretched out on a lounger to watch Jake chase them around the pool, hopefully tiring the boys out whilst Dallas sat on the edge and kicked her feet. Savannah called her over at one point, patting the sun lounger beside her.

“Come tell me what you’ve been reading lately; did you finish the Narnia series?”

“I found it hard, but I thought it was really interesting.”

“What are you reading at the moment?”

Dallas held up her book.

“It’s called Artemis Fowl; it’s all about a kid who...”

Savannah sat up and listened to her explain the book series, a tale of fairies, a criminal mastermind of a child (which said a lot, she’d heard about Jake’s antics) and joining forces with said fairies. She stopped abruptly and went to apologise for rambling but Savannah touched her arm.

“No, it sounds really interesting! Have you got all of the books?”

“I have three but there’s eight in the series.”

“That sounds like you’re going to be busy! Maybe we could go and look for them in a bookshop when we get to Texas, huh?”

Dallas lit up.

“Really?”

“Of course, honey. I can see you really enjoy them and I think your dad would say the same thing.”

Dallas’ eyes drifted to the pool, where Jake had Ronan on his shoulders and was pretending to dodge Austin’s playful attacks. She frowned.

“He doesn’t care; he only likes the boys.”

“That’s not true, Dal.”

Almost on cue, Jake turned his head and called for his daughter, taking Ronan off his shoulders to extend his hands out to her. Dallas put her book down and got into the pool, swimming over to him. Savannah smiled at them, shoulders relaxing as she watched Dallas ease back into being with her father.

-

“Is Dallas okay?”

Sav propped herself up on her elbow in the hotel room bed, frowning at Jake.

“She was feeling ignored, baby. Sometimes I think the boys demand more of your attention and she can’t get what she needs from you.”

“Fuck.”

Jake winced. He sat up, running a hand through his hair.

“I don’t want any of my kids to ever feel like that. Sometimes it’s hard, y’know, the boys can be a lot, and Dallas just... she doesn’t fight like they do for my attention.”

“She shouldn’t have to. Don’t make it her fault, it’s not her fault.”

Jake hummed.

“I know that... what do I do?”

“Show, don’t tell.”

As they’d finished relatively early on their first day of driving, the following morning Jake got the kids up relatively early and let Sav sleep in as long as she could whilst he wrestled them into breakfast and getting into the car. Dallas quite happily climbed into her seat beside the luggage and closed her eyes. Austin and Ronan immediately started squabbling but Jake was quick to shut it down.

“You two have been nothing but stubborn and rude since we left San Diego. Either you work it out or you say nothing to each other the rest of this trip. Dallas and your mom don’t need this, clear?”

The boys exchanged a look, then promptly buckled their seatbelts and shut up. Jake passed them their iPads and reached into the back to make sure Dallas was comfortable before going to wake his wife up. She was halfway out the door when he found her and they shared a quick kiss, Jake brushing his hand down her arm.

“The boys are now on silent until they can be nice,” he said to her. Sav rolled her eyes, patting his cheek.

“Sure they are. C’mon, we should get going if we’re going to make today the big day.”

-

They got into Austin late that night, having pulled a twelve hour day to cover the rest of the distance and give themselves a day to recover before Bailey’s graduation ceremony. All three kids were asleep and Sav pulled Ronan out of his carseat to carry him inside. Jake woke Austin and sent him to follow her into their hotel room then folded down the middle row to pull Dallas out. She was asleep, exhausted from the stress of travelling, and Jake took the opportunity to press a kiss to her hair.

“Hey, Dal,” he whispered, “we’re here. Want to hop out for me?”

She shook her head but gathered her books, eventually climbing out of the car to stretch her legs. Jake took a moment to realise how much both twins had grown recently, Austin almost to his shoulder and Dallas not far behind. He took a breath and caught Dallas’ arm, pulling her into a hug.

“Dad?”

She sounded confused. That hurt even more.

“I’m sorry it seems like sometimes I get caught up with your brothers, Dallas.”

She frowned into his shoulder.

“Okay...?”

“And I want you to know that you are just as important to me as them, alright?”

She glanced up at him, green eyes meeting green, and sent him a smile that reminded him of her mother.

“I know.”

“Okay.”

Silence. Finally, Dallas yawned into his shoulder.

“Good talk, dad.”

She grabbed her bag and went to head into the hotel. About halfway there she whipped around and ran back to hug him again, then disappeared into the room. Jake smiled to himself as he grabbed the suitcases.

-

“You’re late, asshat.”

“You try wrangling two preteens and a five year old.”

Bailey’s faux-irritation dissipated as her older brother came up the steps and she stepped into the hug offered. When they separated she opened her arms and the twins ran to her first, shortly followed by Ronan.

“Hi guys, look at you! Goddamn, when did you get so tall?”

She poked her tongue out at Jake.

“And when did you get so old?”

“Bless you,” Jake replied flatly but he was battling the shit eating grin everyone knew so well. Bailey opened her arms to Savannah as well.

“I’m so glad to see you! Thanks for coming.”

“We weren’t gonna miss it! Graduating college is a big deal.”

Bailey’s eyes softened and Jake swallowed when he realised she was feeling the way he did when he graduated from flight school. Phoenix, Rooster, Dee and Coyote had clapped and cheered for him the loudest considering his family hadn’t even bothered to show up. Jake cleared his throat.

“You want dinner? My shout.”

Bailey smiled.

“As long as it’s your shout.”

-

On the way to the restaurant Bailey sat in the last row of seats beside Dallas and they had an animated conversation all the way through traffic. Jake glanced at them when they pulled up and Dallas had the biggest smile on her face that he’d seen since they left San Diego. They got out and the boys immediately began squabbling but Savannah took them by a hand each and guided them into the restaurant without a word. They got the gist and shut their mouths, following her into the restaurant. Jake smiled when she watched Bailey take Dallas under her arm, sending him a wink.

“Sorry dad, you’re just not cool,” she said in passing. He blinked.

“Bailey- hey, Aunt Bailey, you’re not cool either!”

“Cooler than you!”

-

The next morning Jake took Dallas with him over to Bailey’s to help with graduation prep, meeting her boyfriend at the door. The kid’s eyes widened at the sight of him but Bailey shoved Jake to the side to let her boyfriend in with an eyeroll at Dallas. They went into the kitchen and Bailey cleared her throat, hiding something behind her back.

“Hey, J?”

Jake turned from where he’d been glaring down her boyfriend, an eyebrow raised. He couldn’t remember the last time Bailey had used that nickname.

“Yeah?”

She passed over the envelope and Jake took one look at the front then smiled.

“S’this what I think it is?”

“I was too scared to open it,” she confessed. Jake frowned.

“I thought you were staying here for grad school?”

“Jake.”

He flicked open the envelope and pulled out the piece of paper, skimming over it. Eventually, his eyes lifted to his little sister.

“Full ride to San Diego? Bailey... I’m so proud of you.”

Her eyes widened.

“Full ride?”

“That’s what it says.”

“Oh my...”

“I had no idea you’d applied to San Diego. Bailey, that’s incredible. Congratulations.”

Bailey’s eyes fell to the counter and she took a deep breath. When she met his gaze neither admitted to the happy tears.

“You’re gonna help me pack right?”

“That’s real cute,” Jake snorted, but he pulled Bailey into a hug.

“That’s the result of your hard work. Just enjoy it a little while.”

“Dad! Taylor Swift is on!”

Jake turned his head toward the living area where Dallas had lifted her head from the couch, eyes excited. Jake pretended to huff, ruffling her hair.

“Well, it’s about time for football, so I guess we should change the channel-“

He felt something hit the back of his head.

“Hey! Don’t skip Taylor Swift, asshole!”

When he whipped around Bailey was smirking at him and the towel on the floor told him exactly what had happened. Dallas’ eyes widened but she burst into giggles at the interaction between her dad and aunt. Jake turned to his daughter, raising an eyebrow.

“What do you think, Dal? Would it be okay to see Aunt Bailey more often?”

“Can we?” She asked excitedly. Bailey shrugged.

“I think it’s a possibility- oof!”

Bailey caught Dallas mid-air when she excitedly leapt from the couch to hug her, glancing up at Jake in surprise.

“I can’t wait,” Bailey whispered into her hair. Jake cleared his throat, turning around to go back into the kitchen and text his wife (cry).

[aenslem]

aslkjdlasjf THIS GD SHOW, argh. i just finished season one, which i thought was a good idea, you know, finish the season before taking a break. *facepalms* i have those annoying things to do again (stupid household chores, every gd day you gotta do things), so it'll be a few hours before i can watch more, but i should be able to watch at least one or two more episodes today, so HOPEFULLY things will be a bit more resolved by tonight x'D

you were so right, there is so much happening, and i think EVERYONE on that gd ship needs a few years vacation after all this x'D

"married divorced remarried and divorced again and still having feelings for each other" asljdalksjda that is so correct, they are just that x'D

it's so fun, they're like "i don't trust him" pretty much all the time, and then Rush is like "so i had a dream" and Young is like "ok, i'll call General O'Neill" and they keep relying on each other so much right now, it's great, and Young risking the whole gd ship to save Rush, after having tried to kill him, what, twice already? amazing ❤

ah, yes, fanfiction ❤ it's so good at casting light on things from different angles, i love that, seeing characters and their motivations from all kinds of different point of views. though, you gif makers do that too and i love it, it's so great to look at different gif makers in the same fandoms and see how you focus different things.

right now i'm pretty exclusively reading McShep fics, but we'll see how that looks once i'm done with sgu x'D if you have any recs, please feel free to share!

btw, i've been trying to remember why i followed you from the start, and i'm pretty sure it's Star Trek, and specifically Spones, which, ALL MY LOVE! but i also want to mention how much i love following someone who gifs a lot of women, i love having more women on my dash! i never finished OUaT back in the days, but all your Regina and Swan Queen gifs are making me want to, and your Michelle Gomez gifs, waah, i do not want to watch CAoS! 😭 but you are kicking me in the butt about finishing Doctor Who too with your gifs of her (i sadly miss most of them though since i have it blacklisted for spoilers), i had no idea she was in it but man did that make me want to watch it when i found out!

okay, sorry that this got so long, even when i'm trying to keep things brief i end up being very wordy. so many things to say!

anyway, i'm gonna go do the things now, the sooner i get them done the sooner i can watch more sgu =D oh, wait, no, you posted something from 1x18 last night! i didn't look at it since i hadn't watched it yet, so i'm gonna go do that first! =D ❤

Oh don't be sorry , you can get wordy in my inbox whenever you like :3

You're fast! but why am I surprised, I finished 7 seasons of OUaT in a month lmao.

Well, imagine how it was for those who were watching sgu when it was actually airing, they did not have a chance to go and watch s2 right after s1, and you can :D so other things are not as bad as break between seasons of the show, but yeah, there's always things to do, sucks

askjhdaksjhd 'i just had a very interesting dream' scene is so good, and it so much better when you take it out of context lmao

well, they have to work together, they don't have a choice. you know how things were when he left rush on that planet, eli is smart, and eli was also right

but eli is still not good enough to do all the work, so no matter how much they don't trust each other, they have to work things out and work together and then finally going towards trust and comradery

well, at least they will try lmao

SPONES!!!!!!! SPOOOONEES! they are everything to me!!!!!

well, if you finish ouat and start caos... I am so sorry in advance lmao

I am not sure I can even explain what mess of the shows are those two, I have similar feelings towards both shows, I love the cast, I love some characters, I love women there, I hate the writers :D

Michelle is stunning in caos, there's also Miranda Otto, and they are like my moms, I love them, this show is worth watching just to look at them, but there's also... the rest of the show and plot asjkhdakjdh

same goes for ouat tbh, some characters are great and actors are doing such a good job and then there's whatever was happening in the show, but it;s still fun if you don't take it all seriously.

you will facepalm a lot and you will have an urge to rip your hair out sometimes, but if you try caos, I will give you two good reasons for it

that's it, think about it

okay, but you definitely need to watch doctor who, WATCH DOCTOR WHO!
