Twin!reader who’s scared of the dark but won’t admit it: I’m not scared, I’m not scared. I’m a hero…I can do this..
(Reader stares down in the deep and dark hallway after watching a horror movie. Swearing they heard a sound.)
Twin!reader who is now scared: DAMIANNNNN!!!
(Damian is immediately running through the darkness with determination as his sibling senses are tingling)
Damian pulling out his katana even in his sleepwear: WHATS WRONG?! IS SOMEONE AFTER YOU?? WHO DO I NEED TO END??!
Twin!reader: I don’t mean to bother you..but I’m scared to get a glass of water by myself…and I don’t want to bother Alfred.
(Damian immediately puts his twin on his back as he marches straight ahead through the dark hallway)
Damian: Don’t fret, I’m here to protect you. Monsters, ghosts, those aren’t real my dear sibling—
Twin!reader: THEN WHAT IS THAT?!
(Twin!reader points to a ghostly face that’s approaching the two as Damian then started to shake in his boots. The ghostly face moans in pain as it inches closer.)
Twin!reader who is now crying : DAMI GOO!!
(Damian book ups upstairs holding twin!reader on his back still as the tan boy runs into his room and locks it)
The lights turn on in the hallway to reveal the ghostly face was actually Tim who had not get enough sleep.
Tim: Those damned demon spawns….

Get over it Juice 🙄 we love women who can stand for themselves in this house

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐬' 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐞
⤷ female, ambiguous race, and any size reader. Requests are open, thank you for reading!  
Warnings: swears, mention of blood and bruising, also creeps
ᴹᵃˢᵗᵉʳˡᶤˢᵗ | ᴹᵃˢᵗᵉʳˡᶤˢᵗ ᴵᴵ
𝐉𝐀𝐗
・Not surprised, but a tad shocked. He was used to this behaviour from his mother.
・But when he laid his eyes on you, all he could feel was pride.
"How'd the other guy look?"
"Way fuckin' worse, sweetheart," you said with a smirk.
"That's my girl."
・His arm wrapped around you as you left the station, Unser already pulling strings to get you out. Plus, the guy wasn't going to press charges.
・While getting on the back of Jax's bike you said, "You know what, it felt pretty good."
"I know it does babe, but please don't make it a regular thing," he replied and lightly slapped you on your thigh.
"I'll do my best..."
𝐎𝐏𝐈𝐄
・"The hell did that come from?" He asked as you walked through the front door, nursing a very swollen black eye. Apparently punching first doesn't mean you've won the fight.
・"Ugh, would you believe me if I said I ran into a pole?"
"You hate running."
"Fuck, you're right."
・Out of all the guys, he's the most surprised. It took him a while to process it, the story, the lump on your forehead.
・But to him, it meant you accepted this life.
・From his first marriage, Opie was used to having a s/o who was against the club, but with you - you took it in your stride.
・Completely intergrating with it.
・He pulled you onto his lap, cupping your face.
"That's a fucking big one," Opie said, tracing the outline of the bruise.
"I know. But I was the only one left standing."
𝐂𝐇𝐈𝐁𝐒
・Taken aback, mostly upset because you were arrested.
"You're saying my Old Lady, Y/n Telford, was arrested?"
"Yes," Unser said on the other side of the call. He watched you from the door.
Your head was leaning against the cold brick wall. Eyes shut, nose bleeding, but that was the extent of your injuries.
"And may I ask why, she got arrested," Chibs growled.
"She assaulted someone," with Unser's reply, a smile grew on your face.
"She fuckin' what-" then the line went fuzzy and all Unser heard was "I'm coming," before Chibs hung up.
・You weren't worried. Not about being arrested. Because you knew Chibs wouldn't let you stay in here.
・And you were right, because that very afternoon you were released and Chibs grabbed ahold of your face, checking for injuries.
"What were you thinking lass?"
"Oh honey, I wasn't-"
𝐓𝐈𝐆
・Surprised and kinda turned on by it
・It had been pure luck that you weren't arrested. The Sheriffs had been occupied with actual crime ... not a woman punching a creep square in the face.
・However, once Tig came home and saw the swollen, bruised hand of yours, he instantly knew what had happened.
"Look, all I'm gonna say is ... I'm proud of you baby. You put those creeps in their places. But next time, I want a few rounds too."
・You smiled up at him, and went to push yourself up from the couch but grimaced as you used your hand.
"Yeah, it's gonna be a bit tender for a while. Just relax. I'll do whatever you need me to."
・And then he came over and kissed your hand, examining the darkness that was still developing, the splits in the skin.
"Sheesh, you did a good job," Tig mumbled and went to go get your first aid kit.
𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐘
・The PROUDEST.
・The next day he told everyone in the meeting what happened and all the Sons clapped him on the back.
"Happens to all of us," Jax said with a wink.
・Not only was happy, Happy, he was ecstatic. Because it meant you weren't averse to violence...
・Not that he would readily bring it into the home now, it just meant that you didn't find him or his work disgusting.
・He's always worried about that. That one day, you'll just up and leave because this life isn't for you.
・But you know how he feels, and it was part of the reason why you gave that guy a shiner.
・He would've been only a few years older than you, but he wouldn't stop hitting on you. Not even when you told him you weren't single.
・So you thought, "fuck it, my family is a fucking bikie club," and you went for it.
・Explaining that to Happy made him ... kind of emotional.
𝐉𝐔𝐈𝐂𝐄
・Completely shocked.
・Not in a million years did he think you would be in a fight. Or at least a punch up.
・You were quite fiesty, and that's part of the reason why he loved you
・But he never thought that side of you would become physical.
"Babe, why?" Juice asked over his bowl. He had made dinner that night, wanting to do something.
"The fucker kept on staring at me. Even after I told him to knock it off, twice."
"Oh, he had it coming then."
・A part of him was upset that you had to defend yourself. He always wants to be the one to do that.

When it comes to Omegaverse HoTD I don't think a lot of people realize the full potential of it.
Picture this:
Lucerys Velaryon is the first Omega born into the Targaryen line since the doom of Ol Valyria. He gets spoiled.
Rhaenyra has only the finest clothes made for him. Daemon will do anything his sweet Omegan son asks of him, even let the little Omega crawl into bed between the two Alpha's because he had a nightmare. Jace is overprotective. Joffrey is Daemons mini in regard to Luke. Rhaena and Baela love their precious little brother so much they would kill for him. Rhaenys would give into his demands, he doesn't even have to demand because the moment Luke wants something she'll give it to him. Corlys will bring him back only the finest pearls and jewels from his travels, the pearls get braded into his hair or sewed into his clothes, the same with the jewels.
So Lucerys gets what he wants, when he wants and if he's denied he has an army of people ready to demand he have it or else.
The whole Vaemond story still happens. Only difference is, Lucerys had asked Daemon and his grandsire not to kill him and instead send him to Grandsire Corlys so that he could deal with his little brother.
The Greens seethe at the fact that Luke doesn't even have to beg.
That night after the whole feast mishap Aemond corners Luke in his chambers and threatens to take his eye.
Lucerys goads his uncle because he was raised by Daemon 'Fuck around and Find out" Targaryen and in the end Aemond kisses him.
No love or passion. Just pure unadulterated rage.
Hate sex ensues, bc it's Lucemond what would you expect.
Aemond regrets it the next day. His repressed ass lashes out and says some very unsavory things, as one does.
Luke and his family leave Kings landing after that and the next time he and Aemond meet again is at Storms end.
Luke is there to deliver a message.
"I am not a dog your mother can just order around. At least King Aegon brings me a marriage pact. So, tell me boy. Which of my daughters will you marry?" Borros asked.
Lucerys looked at the girls. Three Betas and one Omega.
He looks at Aemond and feels his heartbeat quicken and then it stops at the reminder of that day.
'You are a whore just like your mother!'
'Wanton bastard!'
'You bewitched me! That is the only explanation for as to why I ended up in your bed between you whorish thighs!'
Such cruel words and he would swallow the now.
Lucerys looks at Lord Borros.
"Sadly, my Lord none of your daughters would be a suitable match for me as they are either Beta's or Omega. However, there are two Alpha's within this hall. Both of whom have a chance at my hand but only one is not betrothed at nor wed, my Lord," Lucerys said with a kind smile.
Lord Borros had his tongue paralyzed for but a moment before he asked, "What do you meen?"
Lucerys smiled as he could feel Aemonds anger radiating off him in waves.
"What I am saying is that even though I cannot marry your daughters I can still marry you. Think of it my Lord. Lord Borros Baratheon, Lord of the Stormlands and Lucerys Velaryon, Lord of the Tides and Heir to Driftmark. We'd make a handsome pair, wouldn't we?" He asked with a shy smile.
Hook. Line. Sinker.
Lord Borros agrees and two moons later Aegon II Targaryen bends the knee to his sister and Lord Borros marries Lucerys.
Even on his deathbed Borros never questions why his sons, Rhaegar, Rhaegor, Aenys, and Darke, and his daughters, Rhaella, Aemma, Lucera, Deanys, Daela, and Valeria have silver hair and purple eyes.
Nor does he question the closeness of his Omega bride Lucerys and his sworn shield Aemond.

Jax spots the guy leaning in too close to you, spouting off some pathetic attempt at a pickup line while tossing in a jab about “wannabe biker boys.” His lips twitch into a deadly smirk as he struts over, confidence oozing with every step.
“Hey, babe,” he says smoothly, wrapping an arm around your waist, his icy blue eyes locking on the clueless idiot. “This clown bothering you?”
When the guy stammers, Jax leans in, his voice dropping low. “Y’know, I’d think twice before badmouthing my club. Especially when I’m the President. But since you didn’t know…” He gives a sharp, humourless laugh. “You’ve got about three seconds to walk away before this gets messy.”
The guy practically trips over himself as he scurries off, and Jax turns back to you, flashing that charming grin. “You alright, darlin’? Let’s get outta here.”

Chibs doesn’t even bother hiding the cold steel in his gaze as he hears the man flirt with you, his Scottish accent turning sharp as glass when he interrupts.
“Yer sure talkin’ a big game for someone who doesn’t know whose girl he’s chattin’ up,” Chibs drawls, stepping between you and the idiot.
The guy scoffs, mentioning something about “bikers and daddy issues,” and that’s all it takes for Chibs’ deadly smirk to surface. “Aye, that’s cute. Now, I’ve got a wee bit of advice for ye: you leave now, or I’ll give ya somethin’ to cry about.”
The guy falters at the glint in Chibs’ eyes, backing off immediately. Once he’s gone, Chibs tilts his head toward you, his voice softening. “You good, love? Let’s grab a drink.”

Tig hears the guy’s comment about how “guys in leather are overcompensating” and loses it. He storms over, practically buzzing with energy, his wild eyes daring the guy to say another word.
“Excuse me? You got somethin’ to say about me, buddy?” Tig growls, his tone loud enough to make everyone turn and stare.
The guy freezes, trying to laugh it off, but Tig’s already in his face, pointing at you. “You see her? She’s with me. Me. So if you’re gonna keep running your mouth, you’d better hope you’re faster than I am. Spoiler alert: you’re not.”
The guy stammers out an apology and bolts, leaving Tig to turn back to you with a grin. “See that? Chased him off. No one messes with my girl.”

Opie hears the guy call SAMCRO a “bunch of thugs” while shamelessly flirting with you. He clenches his fists, his jaw ticking as he approaches. He towers over the guy, his deep voice calm but dangerous.
“Got a problem with my club?” Opie asks, his sheer size and quiet intensity enough to make the guy gulp.
When the man stutters, Opie steps closer, his eyes like granite. “And you think hitting on my girl is a good idea? You’re either real stupid or looking for trouble.”
The guy quickly backpedals, muttering apologies as he slinks away. Opie watches him go, then turns to you with a small smile. “You alright? Let’s head out before I change my mind about letting him walk away.”

Happy doesn’t need to say much. The second he hears the guy say something about “bikers being all talk,” he strides over silently, his expression as unreadable as ever.
He steps between you and the guy, looking him up and down with cold, assessing eyes. “You like your teeth where they are?” Happy asks, his voice low and gravelly.
The guy blinks, confused, but the pure menace radiating off Happy is enough to make him reconsider whatever dumb thing he was about to say. “N-no problem, man. I was just leaving.”
Happy watches him go, then turns to you with a rare smirk. “You good? Let’s go.”

Juice hears the guy call SAMCRO a “bunch of wannabes” while trying to charm you, and he immediately stiffens. He’s not the most intimidating at first glance, but the second he speaks, his tone is sharp.
“You might wanna rethink what you’re saying,” Juice says, stepping up beside you, his eyes narrowing. “That ‘wannabe’ club? That’s my family.”
The guy laughs nervously, trying to brush it off, but Juice isn’t backing down. “And her?” He points at you. “She’s my girl. So why don’t you take your crappy lines somewhere else before I make you regret opening your mouth?”
The guy stumbles over an apology before fleeing, and Juice exhales, turning back to you. “You okay? Let’s get out of here before I really lose it.”

Damian who magically appeared in your bedroom with his robin gear on: Why haven’t you answered my calls?
You jumped scared before relaxing at the boy you had befriended. You awkwardly stand there holding your teddy bear.
You: I haven’t answered your calls?
Damian nodding as he got off the bed and pointed to your charging phone: I suppose I can make a guess as to say your phone was dead? Am I correct?
You nodded as you checked to see 2 missed calls and 7 text messages from him.
You: oh! I’m sorry dames..I didn’t see them.
Damian: it’s okay now that I know that you’re safe. Perhaps during our next so called “play date” we can watch Ninjago?
You: sure! My mom can make us cookies like last time if you want that as well.
Damian who is now smiling as he hugs you goodbye: That sounds…good. Goodbye Y/N.
He then grapple hook his way out of your window.
You: Bye Damian!

"I can't believe Szeth got married and has a wife in the 6 years post Wind and Truth" yeah I get it Masha's a surprise to everyone but also consider
you're a historian living in a time of upheaval. You're specifically a scholar on the Recreance. 18* years earlier there was a civil war in your country and the past 2 years the next desolation you've all been aware of has begun again. The Honorbearers are kind of being weird currently and you're pretty sure it's the end of the world. You move back into your parents farm in an isolated area near the Bondsmith's monastery. You hear stories of other farms being attacked and are worried but are trying to help your older parents, continue your studies (hey the past isn't going to reveal an unbiased truth by itself), and not worry about how current events parallel past ones and times of political strife and all.
You decide to sleep in one morning. When you go get breakfast, your parents mention that your cart and two horses were borrowed by some nice young men early in the morning. You make conversation- hoping that your mom won't mention that one was just your age (seriously mom?) and seemed nice- and somewhere in the conversation it's brought up that the "nice young men" were the Assassin in White, now on a pilgrimage, and the former high-marshal of the Windrunners, and that Nin-son-God was also with them, but he was sitting with a blanket around his shoulders looking sad and you're trying to get your parents to back up hang on they lent your cart and horses to the guy who started that civil war 16 years ago, one of the first radiants of the current generation, and a herald??
And then a few hours later you hear a knock at your front door, and it's the assassin in white the guy who started a civil war in your country at 19* and he's now missing an arm and wow that scarring does not look good and he asks if someone could help him bury his friend and glories above you have written at least two papers on this guy and he looks like he is about to cry on your doorstep and you have several questions you want to ask about the accuracy of reports from the civil war that happened and if the radiants have better records of the infighting that happened before the Recreance than most scholars do and also all the various murders but that would be a bad thing to ask now, right?
The current leadership in your country are apparently all dead, and have been for a while it seems. Szeth's decided, once he's recovered from almost dying, that he'll do what he can to help in Shinovar, along with living for himself and being his own law. And you're a historian, who has just entered into a new era of history. You start to help and slowly get to know him. To hear about the quest for Wind and Truth.
*I might be getting the year wrong. I think it's 16 or 18. Szeth was 19 or 21, I think.

Why is Hera so hostile to Leto in a manner that she isn't with the other lovers of Zeus? I can't think of any other woman who was targeted so much by Hera. One could say she didn't want Leto to give birth because her children would be a competition to Hera's children, but why bother her even after she had already given birth? Is it because Leto herself is also a threat to Hera?
Sort of I guess?
I don't think Leto would ever be a threat to Hera's role as the queen of the gods but Hera might see her as a competitor for Zeus' affection, even though I think Zeus would not marry someone else and replace Hera.
The twins are definitely a big reason why Hera begrudged Leto - it is outright stated in the Callimachus Hymn to Delos that the reason Hera especially targeted Leto was because she was told that Apollo would be dearer to Zeus than Ares is. Zeus is very proud of Artemis as well. As he himself puts it, he doesn't mind facing Hera's wrath for children like her.
But the continued hatred even after the birth of the twins (like sending Tityus to rape Leto) could have been for different reasons. This wasn't like one of those affairs Zeus would have with mortal women where he'd leave them behind once the child is conceived. Neither could Hera, despite her many attempts, get rid of Leto like she did with the other lovers. Not only did Leto give Zeus children that he loves dearly, she also stayed on Olympus despite Hera's hatred towards her (which isn't directed to any of Zeus' other divine mistresses, btw). It might have also been because Leto herself is dear to Zeus, if the way she's treated on Olympus is any proof. In the Homeric hymn to Apollo, Leto stands next to Zeus - in the Olympian assembly - to welcome their son. Hera is completely absent from the scene, as if Leto had taken her place even if temporarily. Now you could say this is because Apollo himself is such a powerful and glorious son in a way that no other son of Zeus is, so of course Leto would get such an honor (the hymn itself presents it this way).
But here's another instance - in the Iliad, when Hera goes to seduce Zeus, he is obviously very smitten but before getting into the action, he lists some of his lovers (I believe these were his favorite lovers, as a lot of others are not mentioned):
"for never has such desire for goddess or mortal woman so gripped and overwhelmed my heart, not even when I was seized by love for Ixion’s wife, who gave birth to Peirithous the gods’ rival in wisdom; or for Acrisius’ daughter, slim-ankled Danaë, who bore Perseus, greatest of warriors; or for the far-famed daughter of Phoenix, who gave me Minos and godlike Rhadamanthus; or for Semele mother of Dionysus, who brings men joy; or for Alcmene at Thebes, whose son was lion-hearted Heracles; or for Demeter of the lovely tresses; or for glorious Leto; or even for you yourself, as this love and sweet desire for you grips me now.’ (Book 14, trans. A. T. Murray)
Notice how when talking about most of them, he also mentions the children they bore to him but when Demeter and Leto are mentioned, he doesn't bring up their children at all despite them being some of the most accomplished kids of his. What's more, he takes Leto's name just before Hera's. I mean, this is an interpretation but it looks like not only did Zeus love Leto the most out of all his mistresses - giving her a place second to that of his wife, but also his love for her wasn't necessarily only because she gave him two amazing children.
Nonnus does something similar in the Dionysiaca (but this time Zeus is enamored with Persephone instead of Hera) but more notably, when Typhoeus attacks Olympus and Zeus is discouraged, Nike takes the form of Leto to encourage him and it's pretty telling of what Leto meant to Zeus.
One interesting similarity between Hera and Leto is that they both had a giant try to rape them. Porphyrion tried to violate Hera (Zeus inspired him to do this) and Tityus tried to violate Leto (upon Hera's order). Though both of them were killed, only Tityus got an eternal punishment in Tartarus of having his liver/heart eaten out by vultures so Zeus seems to have taken a greater offense at Tityus trying to assault Leto.
Again, I don't think Zeus would ever take anyone other than Hera as his permanent wife - she is irreplaceable to him. There's an entire myth about Hera leaving him and Zeus winning her back. Their relationship is obviously complex and involves all kinds of emotions including love and hate. But Leto is continually dear to him as well and that's something Hera can't do much about.
#Zeus#Hera#Leto#if you think about it Leto is like the opposite of Hera#she is a great mother#she bore children that Zeus is actually proud of#she never rebels and even begs for forgiveness when her son rebels against Zeus#she's generally mild natured and never lashes out#also if you look into this obscure myth of how Hera established an altar in the name of Leto#because Leto's name was used to cover up the secret relationship between Zeus and Hera#(which kinda sorta implies that Zeus was *maybe* courting or even married to Leto at that time)#it all gets even more complicated for both Hera and Leto#ALSO in the texts that record the syncretism bw Greek and Egyptian gods#Some authors make Hera the mother of Apollo#and Leto was Apollo's nurse#Those texts also mention that this Apollo defeated Typhoeus and became the king of Egypt#So he was like the ideal son of Zeus and Hera#And it's so interesting to me#how this Apollo - the perfect son of Hera - transitioned into a sort of rival figure to Hera in the greek myths#and Typhoeus who was defeated by Hera's son became the son of Hera in the Greek myths#on a different note#to this day I can't understand why Zeus would inspire Porphyrion to do such a thing#was it to get back at Hera for the Tityus incindent?#I shall headcanon it that way (even though I prefer to ignore this version)#well of course not that Zeus would have ever let Porphyrion actually have his way with Hera regardless of the reason#but yeah that was such move and it's wild that the mythographer didn't tell us that reason behind Zeus' action#I've also seen people hc that it was because Zeus wanted Heracles to save Hera so that she's accept him finally#which is also an interesting explanation#especially if you consider that Heracles was also given Hera's breast milk (without her consent)#anyway that's enough rambling ig
