PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE (LANDO NORRIS X Reader)

I did a poll yesterday and I had asked which driver I should write an smau with Sabrina Carpenter's Please please please. Lando won, so here is the smau. I hope you guys enjoy it more than I enjoyed making it!! (I used Sabrina Carpenter mostly, except a few places where I got the pictures from pinterest)

Y/N.Y/L/N

Tagged Y/BFF/user and McLaren

Liked by McLaren, landonorris, oscarpiastri and 4,657,982 others Y/N.Y/L/N So Y/BFF/user loves watching cars go fast, I on the contrary had my heart stop when I found out the speed they drove at. Thank you to McLaren for having us. It was the nicest experience, let's do this again some time. The drivers were so much fun, especially oscarpiastri, same sense of humour as Y/BFF/N.

user 1 I knew loving y/n was a queen move, she's so pretty. user 2 the crossover I didn't know I needed😭😭 user 3 I was at the race and when I said I was a fan she gave me and the others an autograph and we even took pictures!! the sweetest!!❤️❤️ user 4 I was also at the race and I saw her and Lando literally throwing themselves at each other and laughing at god knows what. user 5 user4 me too, I saw them whispering to each other and I think I saw them exchange numbers👀 user 6 both of them follow each other now, idk what that means?? are we getting a new dad?!🤔

Y/N was greeted by McLaren staff at the entrance and given paddock passes to enter. Y/BFF/N was looking around with big round eyes and almost screamed when she saw Lando and Oscar. They shook hands and went along with the engineers on a tour of the paddock. Y/N didn't understand most of it but she was happy for Y/BFF/N. Lando seemed to have noticed that Y/N was zoned out, so he tapped her shoulder, "You don't have to listen if you don't want to." Y/N apologised and tried to pay attention, alas Lando had other plans and decided to end her misery. He took her along to the drivers room, let her sit down and even got her an iced americano, her favourite!! Y/N thanked him with the conversation flowing like butter with the sprinkling of some flirting here and there. As Lando finished P3, he made sure to get Y/N number before she left for the night; a triumphant look on Lando's face.

Liked by 34,765 others f1updates Y/N Y/L/N was in attendance at today’s race at McLaren. P (Max's girlfriend's daughter) was seen taking picture with her. She wasn't the only one happy it seems because a certain driver couldn't get done with press and debrief without blushing every time he looked at her. He even ran back after the race to her in what every is describing as a race to get her number before she leaves. We hope to see more of Y/N now that she might become a wag.

user 7 can celebrities who don't care about the sport not come. 😒😒 user 8 this page is supposed to update about the race not the racers lives🙄🙄 user 9 I think they look cute together, I haven't seen Lando blush like this ever🥰🥰

Liked by 15,798 others. y/nupdates Y/N was seen a few days back with a mystery man on the streets of London. Both of them looked very comfortable holding hands or kissing each other any chance they got. Is there romance in the air or is this another one of y/n flings? only time will tell.

popnews

liked by Y/BFF/user and others popnews Y/N Y/L/N, singer and Lando Norris, McLaren's F1 driver were seen walking around the streets of Paris. This seems to be the third city the pair has been spotted being in love. Speculations say that they started dating after Y/N went to the race in March. Only time will tell what is going on between the two since they've kept their personal lives private since neither have been seen attending a race or a concert. We've tried contacting both their PR team but have gotten no response.

Lando couldn't help but gloat to his friends and fellow drivers. How many people can say that their girlfriend wrote a song about them. The song made him soft and mushy so when Y/N walked through the door he tackled her into a hug. "you wrote a song about me" Lando whispered in her ear. "I did" y/n replied, "all my songs are about you darling" Lando's neck felt hot and his cheeks started to hurt from smiling to hard. Y/N looked at his face and smirked, "aww!! is little norris blushing??" Lando quickly moved away and turn his head towards the window. Y/N couldn't help but tease him and call him a sap in love. Honestly the biggest sap was Y/N since she was the one writing songs about her boyfriend.

After hitting the post button on their respective accounts, Y/N found herself in Lando's arms with her head against his chest and his on top of hers. She wrapped her arms around his torso and took a deep breathe; "I love you so much, you know that, right?" Lando chuckled, “You don't let me forget it, with being your muse and all” She let out a sign of content and mumbled, "Just like the driver's championship you are P3 in my heart" Lando's face dropped, unwrapping his arms and pulling her to eye level, "what do you mean?" Y/N just laughed and said, "my parents and Y/BFF/N are P1 and P2 but am sure you'll become P2 if I write any more songs about you." Lando leaned in and kissed her, she pulled him closer as she deepend the kiss. Both of them happy where they were in each other's arms.

I hope you guys liked it!!

[lukolabrainrot]

Calm theory anon here again!! Lord knows I'm exhausted of this little girl but I wanted to touch on what all we have seen since Italy Birthday trip and Lukes recent like. 1. It was reported by someone who took a photo with Luke at the airport that he was alone. Meaning he flew back by himself. Rumor that he left two days before 2. We got radio silence from the group for a while. 3. Rory unfollowed sienna then it was reported on by the fan pages and then he followed her back. 4. Sienna unfollowed Jack Vine (this is the guy that Luke stays with when he didn't have a house) then it was reported on by the fan pages and she followed him back. The last couple days she's unfollowed him again. 5. Charmaine reposted on TikTok about NDA👀 6. Rory takes a trip with his mom. 7. Sienna likes a post of Hannah Dodd and Nicola from fashion week. 8. Sienna hasn't liked any type of photos of A since early August nor did she like that last Luke post. Now with all this information I'm sure we all can come up with some conclusions. I do think that Luke set up some type of NDA which in my opinion was necessary. We have to remember that Luke's management team is actually a very well-known and establish team this was told to me by people in the PR field. He doesn't have newbies. Now I'm sure that pissed a lot of his friends off. It made them keep quiet about things that they might not have wanted to be quiet about. We clearly see something going on. Now Luke liking A stuff. it was 10 1/2 hours after she posted on her grid with a story posted after four hours of the photos being live. Now the posting to her stories of the grid picture is a new thing. That didn't start till after Italy. What does that tell me? She knows that his notifications for her has been probably turned off. So in order for him to see her photos, she would have to post it in her story which he most likely watches those. This particular photo wasn't liked until after Nicola posted at the concert. I don't believe in coincidences. He got a notification that Nicole posted. Then he went online afterwards watching Nicola story. Now who to say it's not part of his NDA that he has with her that. But as I was thinking about all of this today, one of the interviews that Nic and Luke came to mind. When they were discussing red flags. And one of the questions was keeping up with an ex. Nic said something like I feel that how you speak of your ex says a lot about you or something like that. Remember, Luke listens to every single thing that Nikola has said. She's the one person in this world that he remembers how they met down to the chairs they had sat on. So he would remember stuff like this. So it could be an NDA thing or it could be him trying to be civil with his ex. Regardless of the like which does not tell you anything. The only thing that tells me is she is desperate for that like. She has to put it in her story so that he will see it, she wants that like so bad that she's doing something she never had to do before. Why does she want the like so bad? Because she can control the fandom. Every time Luke likes this girls picture people spiral. it's like on a photo. He's not commenting on it. He's not giving her heart eyes. He's not sharing it to his stories. He liked the picture. We don't know the reason why and we will never know. All I'm saying there is a lot going on BTS that's clearly evident by how they're all moving. We just gotta wait for Nicola to speak more. Remember, her voice should always outshine this girl's voice. Nicola has given us all hints that something more is happening. Let's trust her please

As always, love your thoughts and theories!

Here are some additional theories/thoughts I have about the SM events from today. Disclaimer: These are just my thoughts and interpretations based on all the publicly available information I have seen recently. So please do not take this as 100% fact!

N didn't post her Chappell Roan story until almost midnight her time

L THEN preceded to like A's post approximately 30 minutes after N's CR story- which at that point was technically the day AFTER A made her post

So my little delulu theory is that N went home to L after the concert with her besties, they cuddled up and caught up, N posted her story, this made L log on to IG and prompted him to do his obligatory like of miss A's post after seeing A's story

Some additional notes/thoughts:

Even if N DIDN'T go home to L, all of the available information Calm Theory Anon and I have laid out here tells me this. L DOES NOT HAVE NOTIFICATIONS ON FOR A AND IS NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT SHE IS POSTING. L IS DOING THIS WITH N THOUGH.

He also liked A's post within a really short time of N's CR story. Now, the only thing this definitively says is that L/N were on their IG accounts around the same period of time. But this was around 12:30 AM their time. It was pretty late at night, and like it's just an interestingggg coincidence if L/N were separate and just both getting on SM around the same time at that time at night. We also know N tends to go on SM when she is getting ready for bed (N has said this). And she posted the CR story around the time she most likely was getting home from the concert. I think there are just a lot of signs/clues pointing that L/N were together around midnight their time. And L was NOT at the CR concert, so that means she would have met up with L AFTER the concert. And if she was meeting L after the concert at that time at night, they were probably with each other the rest of the night. So this is what leads me to believe that N went home to L OR L got the notification for N's story and got on SM and saw A's story. The timing of it all is just very interestingggg to me 🤔

Lastly, A had to essentially BEG L for this like. Why does L still have to like her posts? I have no definitive answer. My thoughts are it's some sort of contractual agreement. Regardless, these likes have no direct indication of L/A's relationship BTS. If I look at the full picture of EVERYTHING, all the signs indicate that L/N are spending more time together (or just since August decided to start publicly hinting to the fandom that they are spending a lot of time together). And all the signs point to L/A not being on good terms, and that there was some sort of rupture in L's friend group around the Italy bday trip.

These are just my thoughts though. What does everyone else think?

✦ Lost in Limbo Devlog #8 | 02.06.24

AHA! It's February (has been for a few days, but I've been a bit busy as per usual) so that means another Lost in Limbo devlog! We have been recovering from our wrap-up, working left and right, and oooh boy aren't things getting interesting. Let's jump into it, shall we?

First of all...

🎉🎊🎊THE DEMO CGS ARE DONE!🎉🎉🎊

Raquel has worked SO HARD to achieve this, and the results are simply amazing. We could never ask for a better artist, and we can't wait for you all to see and experience every CG for yourselves. Sadly, we made a promise of only showing Gael and Amon's, so you'll have to wait a bit more for the others! ; v ;

And next! You thought we were finished with the characters?! NOT BY A LONG SHOT! As you may remember, our demo script went through a few changes, but this secondary character remains! We don't want to talk about them too much, but we also wanted you to have a taste of them, as they'll be the first character you'll meet... 👀💜

Our plan is to finish this sprite and then move on to the character's expressions. We have to figure out the most efficient way to work on them, though!

The dreaded section—but THIS MONTH we come with a wonderful announcement...

✨🎆Airyn has joined the team!✨🎆

And you'll ask, who's Airyn?! Well, she's an amazing person we met during our master degree; we have been developing a friendship for a while now, and as we needed an extra hand with our backgrounds, Airyn offered us her help! She's an incredibly talented concept artist who loves working on backgrounds, and we are so so thankful for her help! We literally couldn't ask for a better professional to join us during our demo journey :')!

You can see some of Airyn's work on her ArtStation, here!

She has already started to work on our unfinished backgrounds, and so far we can offer you this fantastic WIP of one of the places you'll visit in the demo! 💜

But Astro is not far behind! He's getting our last background ready, and so far he's doing an impeccable job! We hope these mysterious places are piquing your curiosity, because we definitely can't wait for you to visit them!

I'm reaching page 100 of our script, having left behind a few things to correct! Only 40~ pages left, which means soon we'll make a second round of editing and correcting. Allie is almost done with their first editing process and that's very exciting! We can't honestly thank her enough for her incredible job 💜(I think I say this a bit too much, but we gotta be thankful on this team!)

The CG's have been programmed and they work so far! Now each character has a CG to be unlocked and seen in full HD, and each in their own gallery, hehe. Next I'll have to play around with the credits because I was having trouble with something last time I tried to get them done—but as always, I'll get it done one way or another!

This month we have worked hard! January has been a good start of the year I think. I hope we can speed things up a bit now that we have Airyn to help us with the backgrounds, and hopefully she'll be a permanent addition to the team if everything goes well! I don't want to jinx it, but I feel I can see the end of the tunnel little by little. Planning stuff, looking up different things, getting busier and busier...Let's see if February, even if short, proves to be a productive month!

Also, we hope you all have been taking care and the start of the year has been nice to you. There's so many amazing things happening in the indie otome community, so make sure to enjoy it all! 💜

Hey, Senstea Souls!

A Nostalgic Hit! + One Line Guidance For 2024

Pile 1

Tarot Cards- King of Wands, The Wheel of Fortune, 10 of Pentacles, Page of Wands, The World, 5 of Pentacles

Animal Spirit- Beaver

Well, pile 1 I see that this year has taught you to come out of the cyclical nature of your mind. This year taught you to be more focused and detail-oriented. It showed you intricate details especially when you were struggling. At the beginning of the year, you were okay with being in a box, in your own tiny space. But the scope for your growth became stagnant. You may have had anger outbursts. The dream you had somehow shattered because a new dream was emerging. You were coming out of your cocoon. Achieving goals became impossible to imagine. But you were divinely pushed to have hope and keep believing in the impossible even though it seemed delusional. And as the year started to approach its end you started to see some clarity. Without knowing you become the master at what you do. Something didn't work out the way you wanted it to but it worked out completely different from your imagination. Some of you may also have felt stuck in family dynamics and now I see healing in that area. You fought so many battles within a year. You broke more than one cycle this year. Wow! You were being prepared for the ultimate abundance that you deserve. Something in your DNA needed to be changed. Something significant happened during April, May, and August. No matter what you did you found yourself coming out of one circle to entering into another one. But now this cyclical process is over! You did it! You learned the importance of planning and understanding life as a whole. You learned the true value of actions and what's the best way to make long-term plans work. Some of you were looking for financial stability which impacted you emotionally. But now I see you are almost out of the lack phase and are entering into the phase of abundance.

Pile 2

Tarot Cards- Temperance, The Hierophant, 7 of Cups, 6 of Pentacles, 8 of Cups, The World

Animal Spirit- Owl

Hello, my dear pile 2. I see that 2023 taught the true meaning of give and take. It taught you how to balance. It taught you that you too deserve to receive love and effort. It taught you to walk away from anything that is not helping you grow or relationships that are keeping you stagnant. You learned the truth of selfless service. You can discern better when it comes to your emotional mind. Now you know what being at peace truly means. Something major might have happened around August. Perhaps, you found the courage to let go. You've freed yourself from always being in your head. You have learned so much that now you are capable of guiding others. You are finally gaining the light that shines within you. For some of you, I feel as though you have understood relationship and friendship dynamics pretty well there's still something lingering around that you need to deal with. There's something you still can't let go of or stop wishing for. There's a wish that you are attached to and you need to let go of the attachment. As soon as you become happy without the idea of having it you'll see it coming. This year brought you closer to spirituality but you still have a long way to go. I hear, “August slipped away like a bottle of wine 'cause you were never mine.” For some of you, I see that somewhere you still hope for someone to change. Perhaps, somewhere deep down you are pretending that you are over someone but you truly aren't. This year taught you a lot in terms of relationships and I hope you carry forward the lessons into the next year as well.

Pile 3

Tarot Cards- Queen of Pentacles, 8 of Swords, 6 of Swords, 5 of Cups, The World, King of Pentacles

Animal Spirit- Hyena

So my dear pile 3 I sense some conflict between your divine counterparts (Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine). Some of you may be questioning your identity. You thought you were over something but then suddenly this year made you realize that there's more to this world and there's more to you. It was uncomfortable for you to accept yourself. For you, there was no way out of this misery. The problem is that you let the situations define you, and others' opinions define you. You didn't move based on your choice but you moved or made a decision based on what others perceive of you so that you still can be loved. You were or still are trying to prove something to the world. I hear, “You make me glow but I cover up won't let it show.” I am sorry to say but I see that there's a huge lack of self-love here. And you are still making peace with yourself. You are still learning to accept yourself. But the good news is that this tough cycle is about to end as the Capricorn season ends in January. Slowly but steadily you'll be out of this mess. You will find the courage to take the action. You need to. And you must. This year taught you what it looks like to see and feel the truth. It might have been uncomfortable but was necessary for your growth. You've suffered on the soul level and it's time that you take the right action and not what the world deems right.

Til The End Of Eternity || Chapter sixteen: Welcome home (16/?)

Masterlist

Y/n laid across Douxie’s couch, her naked feet dangling over the back. She quickly switched the page of her book, her eyes swiftly moving over the words. She had gone to Douxie’s apartment for their lunch date but he wasn’t there, neither was Archie. She had sat at the couch with her book to pass the time almost eight hours ago and there was still no signs of her boyfriend.

For some reason, the quietness of Douxie's apartment had created the perfect atmosphere to concentrate and read the book Douxie had borrowed her. The book was perfect. All the different tales, the characters, the way the author had written the story, all of it spoke to her in a way she thought was impossible. Every single word would bring a comfort to her soul she hadn’t felt in a lifetime.

“I told you: you should never turn your back to a shadow mephit” a man said behind the front door.

Y/n sat down, closing her book and turned towards the door. Was it Douxie? Was he bringing a friend?

“I’m sorry? You wanted the blood goblins to eat you?” Douxie asked. He was out of air, he didn’t sound good.

‘Blood goblins?’ Y/n squeezed the book ‘It can’t be’

The door opened revealing a Douxie covered in blood holding his left side alongside an unharmed Archie.

“Douxie? What…What happened?” Y/n tossed the book to the side and ran to Douxie’s side.

“Y/n?! What are…” he hissed when Y/n tried to see the wound on his side.

“I’m sorry” she pulled her hands back.

“What are you doing here?!” His right eye opened in surprise, his left eye was so swollen he couldn’t see from it.

“We were supposed to have lunch” She answered, more focused on trying to get him to the couch.

“Oh. Oh” he sat down “I totally forgot. I’m sorry. I…”

“Douxie” Y/n crouched down in front of him, her brows furrowed with worry “I need to know what happened”

‘I need to know what you know. If you know’ she thought.

“Ehm…” He looked to the side, to Archie who sat on the other side of the couch and back to her “Y/n…I was…”

“Don’t…Don’t lie to me. Please” she gently squeezed his knee.

The silence was deafening. The two of them were looking at each other, scared of breaking the silence, of being the one saying the words that may change everything.

“Archie! Are you here?” Al voice sounded out of Douxie’s room.

Y/n turned to the room’s door. She felt her heart falling to her stomach.

“Arch! Do you know why there are blood goblins running around Arcadia?” Al emerged from the room “Ugh! Douxie, you look bad. Oh! Hello Y/n” he scratched his ear.

“Alfred” Y/n whispered.

“What?” He whispered back “Oh! Everything is finally back to normal? Great!” He ran to Archie and sat next to him “I’m glad you could remember, Y/n. Good for you, Doux. If I had to keep hearing you crying because you miss her I would” he stopped laughing “Why is no…”

“She didn’t remember, idiot” Archie hit the brown cat with his paw.

“Hey! that was claws out” Al cried.

Y/n felt the water raising. She looked back to Douxie, to his eyes. Suddenly everything made sense. The blue light, the boy, the warmth in her chest, how she always ended up coming back to him. She closed her eyes and she saw him across time, across the years, it was always him. Back as children when she twisted her ankle, he carried her home; back as teens when some absences were heavier than before, he was always there; when the war took everything from her, he was there, holding her hand. She opened her eyes again and saw him, his beaten up face full of worry.

She stretched her hand out and caressed his cheek. He gave into the touch. A soft red glow healed his wounds.

“Douxie” she whispered, tears falling down her face “My Douxie, how could I forget you?”

A sob escaped Douxie’s lips, making him fall from the couch to the floor in front of her.

“I’m sorry, Doux. I’m so sorry” She grabbed his cheeks and her thumbs cleaned the tears that fell unapologetically.

Douxie shook his head “You’re here now”

They smiled.

“And I’m not leaving again” she kissed his nose.

“Please” he plead and kissed her, full force. His hands pushing her waist against his, trying to get her as close to him as he could.

Y/n’s hands went to play his hair, innocently tugging:

“In moments like this I don’t miss the man bun at all” She joked between short kisses.

“Don’t remind me” Douxie groaned in a mixture of pleasure and embarrassment.

“I’m really sorry” she apologized again as Douxie kissed down her jaw to her neck “You've been alone all these years…”

“Don’t” He pressed their forehead together “We can talk later” he kissed her cheek “But, right now, let me hold you, please” he kissed her other cheek.

Y/n nodded with a smile on her face.

Douxie lifted her from the floor and took her to his room. Both of them lay there, only illuminated by Arcadia’s night lights, holding each other tight, making sure that this time, nothing would separate them.

—

Y/n opened her eyes. The soft morning light illuminated Douxie’s face staring back at her.

“Morning, darling” he smiled.

“Good morning, Doux” she smiled back.

His face in this light reminded her of her teenage years. The two of them hiding away in a room built of stones when the world was harsher and they were much softer.

“What are you thinking about?” He stroked her eyebrow.

“About how handsome you are” she kissed his nose.

He chuckled, trying to ignore the blood rushing to his cheeks.

“I was thinking about us back home, about…Camelot” she said.

‘Camelot’ the name felt so strange in her lips but it didn’t make it any less true. She was born on Camelot, she fell in love with Hisirdoux Casperan the XIV on Camelot, that she remembered but not much more.

“Camelot?” Douxie raised his brows “How much do you remember?” He lifted himself up.

“Not much” Y/n chuckled and sat up “It’s all so blurry still”

“How about…about that night?” He looked down.

Y/n sighed and gave him a half smile. Of course she remembers that night, the night she lost him. She remembered the slam door, the rain, the pain.

“I…I remember leaving. Slamming the door and running into the rain” she chuckled and turned to him, Douxie’s eyes were full of worry, focused on her story “then I don’t know what happened…It’s all bright and then…dark and then, I’m in Jim’s father’s car and I’m a child again”

Douxie got closer, if that was possible, and put his arm around her.

“I swear, I didn’t leave you” Y/n put her hand on his cheekbone, her eyes full of tears “I love you too much to lea…”

“I know. I know. I love you too” Douxie grabbed her hand from his cheek and kissed it “At first, I was scared you did leave me…and, then” he smiled “ Al, who never stopped looking for you, came back saying you were cursed and I’m still not a master wizard…” he looked down to his hands.

Y/n chuckled. He turned to her hands.

“What good is being a master wizard” she lifted her right wrist where her staff rested “if I couldn’t break the spell all those years ago?”

Douxie sighed and rested his head on top of Y/n’s.

“I’ll fix this, Doux” she played with her bracelet.

“We’ll fix this” Douxie put his hand on to of her’s.

A/n: I almost fell asleep without uploading 🤪 anyways after this chapter I’ll be uploading the hc as a thank you for no killing me for no updating last week 💖

[thescrapwitch]

Hello! I keep wanting to message you so I’m gonna use your fic game ask post as an excuse, lol! XD

If you’d care to indulge me, I’d love to see the Flip Flop version of Feanor and Nerdanel’s first reunion in “From Ruins We Grow.” (Love this fic so much. 🥰) I’d love to see what all she was thinking and feeling going to meet him again after so long. 👀

Thank you!

Thank you! You can message me anytime, I love talking about my fics 😊

Fun fact: I had no idea Nerdanel was going to show up so early in the fic, but she kind of burst onto the page, making me just as surprised as Fëanor was. I thought she would stay back until chapter 7 or 8, but nope! She was determined to be a bigger part of this fic and face him.

Here’s a little bit of their first scene together but from her POV:

“Fëanor.” The name came out of Nerdanel’s mouth like a curse, burning her tongue as she spoke it.

He looked - damn him, he looked like he had years and years ago. Dark hair a mess, eyes catching her heart with how they dazzled in the light. But gone was his grin: determined, self-assured, full of promises. In its place was a hesitancy, a vulnerability that made him look ready to crumble if she stepped too close.

A part of her wanted to step closer. To hit him, to hold him, to shake him hard until answers fell out. Why did you damn our lives, why did you drag my babies away, why did you lead them to death and ruin? Why was our life not enough for you?

Why did you have to come back?

Why couldn’t you have stayed?

“I have brought your pots,” she said instead, her hands balled into fists.

“Thank you.” He spoke softly. That was new as well. No demands, no yelling. The fire that always shone in his speech had been dimmed. His eyes never once left her face, as though trying to memorize every tiny detail. “Is your father well?”

“Yes,” said Nerdanel, surprised that he would care enough to ask. “I told him I wanted to see you. Alone.”

Fëanor’s eyes became bright, his lips turning into a smile. “I have wanted to see you as well.”

Of all the things to say! The nerve of him to throw that at her, after everything! “You left,” she said, daring him to argue back, to start a fight.

He did not take the bait. “Yes.”

“You took our sons.”

“Yes.”

“They are dead.” The grief of it tore at her, the thought of all her babies lying dead and broken, or burnt to ashes, or drowned alone in cold, faraway waters. “All of them are dead, and so were you.”

“I am sorry,” he said, and even in her anger she knew that he meant it. “I did not want to come back without them.”

“Are they - ” Nerdanel turned away, suddenly unable to look at him. Do not break, not now, not when your pride is all you have left. “Are they well, in Mandos? Or did you damn our children to eternal darkness?”

“They are in the Halls,” he said. “They are no longer in any danger or pain.”

Nerdanel nodded, her mouth pressed into a thin, hard line. She could feel the tears welling up in her eyes, a pain so deep in her heart that it nearly knocked her to her knees. My three middle ones slain at Doriath, my youngest two cut down in Sirion, my beautiful eldest jumped into fire, my sweet little singer lost to the sea - and my husband - my damn husband nothing but ashes -

Fëanor reached for her hand. “Nerdanel - ”

She jerked away. It was his fault, after all, that her babies were dead. “Your pots are this way,” she said, and led him to the cart.

Uh oh😳

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò better sleep with BOTH eyes open after he links Hillary to Pizzagate... - Revolver News

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò better sleep with BOTH eyes open after he links Hillary to Pizzagate…

January 10, 2024 

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past 8 or so years and don’t know what Pizzagate is, here’s a brief explanation according to the left-wing site Wikipedia:

“Pizzagate” is a conspiracy theory that went viral during the 2016 United States presidential election cycle, falsely claiming that the New York City Police Department had discovered a pedophilia ring linked to members of the Democratic Party while searching through Anthony Weiner’s emails.

The issue with the media and the left’s swift dismissal of the theory as a “conspiracy” is that there does seem to be a grain or two of truth to it. Without getting into too much “pizza,” the truth of the matter is that an alarming number of elites are being apprehended for child pornography and trafficking. Jeffrey Epstein was operating a full-scale pedophile ring, and according to court records, Bill Clinton was allegedly knee-deep in it and preferred his girls “young.”

Now, this doesn’t prove Pizzagate by any means. However, it certainly lends credibility to certain aspects of the theory that suggest elites are involved in depraved activities concerning children.

The Independent:

Billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein once told one of his victims that Bill Clinton “likes them young”, according to dramatic testimony revealed in court documents unsealed for the very first time.

Dozens of Epstein associates were unmasked on Wednesday after a judge ordered the unsealing of court documents in a now-settled lawsuit brought by abuse victim Virginia Giuffre against Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.

Among the hundreds of pages of filings, another victim Johanna Sjoberg spoke about what she knew about Mr Clinton’s ties to Epstein as part of a 2016 deposition that also made allegations against Prince Andrew.

Under sworn testimony, she said that Epstein had told her the former president liked girls “young”.

“[Epstein] said one time that Clinton likes them young, referring to girls,” she testified.

When asked if she knew Mr Clinton was a friend of Epstein, she said: “I knew he had dealings with Bill Clinton. I did not know they were friends until I read the Vanity Fair article about them going to Africa together.”

The Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell case has brought the “Pizzagate” narrative back into the spotlight, and now, with the release of the Epstein files, it has gained even more momentum.

That’s why it comes as no surprise that a video clip has been circulating online featuring Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, who openly discusses Pizzagate and doesn’t shy away from naming people like Hillary Clinton and John Podesta.

Now, we always approach this type of thing with a healthy amount of skepticism, but we like to share it with you so you can draw your own conclusions.

The truth is, when it comes to Hillary and her husband, she has earned a notorious reputation for treating Bill’s accusers like second-class citizens and attempting to silence their voices. This is precisely what Juanita Broaddrick, one of Clinton’s rape accusers, says happened to her.

Needless to say, Hillary doesn’t have the most glowing “pro-woman” reputation. So, Archbishop Viganò held nothing back in his “revelations” about Pizzagate and his direct references to Hillary Clinton. Again, there’s no proof of this, but many people have very strong opinions.

And truth be told, it has us a bit worried. Perhaps the archbishop should sleep with both of his eyes open?

We may never fully uncover the truth about Pizzagate, or even the depths of the Epstein case and similar incidents, but it’s essential to encourage people to remain engaged in the conversation and seek out information for themselves. After all, that’s the American way.

They can't outrun hell.

crush talk below the cut heheh

okay so… my CRUSH let’s call him eggsy he’s one of my english class and in one of my educational science classes. the educational science class is a block seminar tho, so we had the intro session at the beginning of the semester and then we just have three full days of the class. so i’ve seen him in the english class first and then the intro session of the educational science class was on zoom and his camera was on so i recognized him (also bc he’s mad hot)

ty azia and @roguelioness for this prompt ;--; it kinda uhh.....hurts lmao

prompt: 8. “Put the homework away and go to bed.  You look exhausted.”

word count: 1.3k

when does this take place? dw about it, it's fine <3 (to say otherwise is spoilers)

--

Candles flicker on the table, wax dripping past the holders—the flames large and flickering, sending soot trailing up to the ceiling. The wicks long past due for a trim. A task ordinarily handled on set schedules, but forgotten for more pressing endeavors. Scholars books borrowed from the Noumenon remain stacked upon chairs and the table along with half a dozen tea cups, little rings of sugar and milk left in the bottom from days long past. Broken quills and empty ink bottles neatly set aside next to crumpled and smoothed out pieces of paper, notes scribbled and ink accidentally smeared in the rush.

The window left cracked open, letting in the cool night air; the trees outside rustle in the breeze, the only sound now--the orchestration left unwound--paper tapes left to fold up upon themselves. 

A fresh bottle of ink uncorks and the smell draws Eyrie’s eyes open. They breathe deep, staring half lidded at the ceiling above painted with warm shadows. They turn their head, silk cool to the touch against the side of their head still warm with scabs and bruises, still kept wrapped in bandages.

G’raha works at the table, his quill nib scratching across paper. Leg bouncing beneath the table as his tail flicks and twitches in thought. Removing a few books from a pile and Eyrie catches most of his face. Backlit by candles, there’s already pain building behind their eyes from the light but they don’t want to look away.

G’raha readjusts his legs, still engrossed in work—blissfully aware of their waking. Good.

His brow scrunches and eyes narrow, mouthing unspoken thoughts as he fusses with his quill; twisting it betwixt fingers before pausing to look close at it. Must be broken again and he sets it aside, sorting once more through the mess in front of him for another. He carefully handles each of the books—perhaps from one too many scolding about how to properly hold a books—in contrast to the ink blotches and stains across his hands. Does he know about the ink across the side of his left hand as he licks his thumb to turn a page? The edge of his sleep shirt sleeve stained from dragging it across notes?

They doubt he knows, too preoccupied by pressing issues. They’ve only been awake for a few minutes, but nausea already tinges their stomach in a familiar aether sick way. Hands trembling, not yet feverish but it will hit soon.

“You promised me you would be coming to bed before long…”

G’raha’s tail twitches and ears shoot up in surprise, a faint curse spilling from his lips. Righting the bottle of ink neatly tipped over in setting his book aside, he turns to look at them. They fight a teasing smile, committed to having a decent pout aimed at him.

“My apologies...” His ears droop, fingers anxiously tapping against the table. “I had intended to look only a little bit longer before retiring. I’m sorry for waking you—“ He looks up at them again.

“Ah, Eyrie, your blindfold…” He shifts his leg out from under him to stand. They shake their head to stop him, a smile turning their lips.

“Hush, it’s alright. I just woke up and don’t need it. Besides—I wished to look at you without it on.”

They catch the flush as he dips his head and quietly laughs; affectionate heat blooms in their chest. A naught uncommon feeling when it comes to catching G’raha off guard with their blatant expressions of their affections. Stuck in bed and they’ve become a slave to sentiment.

“Again my apologies for waking you; how have you slept? Do you require anything?”

“You are better for it—waking me.” They ignore his baited question, looking down at the sheets. Tucked in once again. “Who else would tell you to come to bed yet again?”

“Yes, well,” he looks away, back to the books scattered about—laid atop each other. “While the business of your condition remains a mystery, tis best we keep exploring our options. Especially if aetherspurn is our best guess, then—I was only going to be a little bit longer--“

Eyrie’s brow furrows.

“G’raha…”

A quiet slip of his name from their lips and they watch him deflate. It’s all he can do to help, they know this; ever the mind set to wander and think—the brain of a scholar beset with a problem he hasn’t puzzled out; hasn’t *yet* puzzled out. Eyrie’s seen the motions enough times, the loop G’raha chases in his mind. Wondering if there is any hope—chastising his own negativity and redoubling his efforts. There is a solution buried deep down somewhere. Nothing is impossible--the exploits of the scions damning proof of such--but research texts, old tomes and hand written journal accounts are finite. Even in the largest library in the known world there is only so much knowledge.

Aetherspurn has no known cure—only palliative care until the affliction runs its course.

Eyrie sighs, looking down at their hand and they pat the sheets to try and beckon him.

“Options best explored in the light of the day. It will avail you naught to keep this up until dawn. You will scarcely remember any tome you devour now, and be back at square one yet again come morning.”

Moments like these, they regret inspiring further and further heights of tenacity. They would be scolded for voicing such thoughts; already they hear Alisaie telling them what for—that they give so much, it’s only natural they be given so much in return. They’re the eye of the storm now, watching the rest all rush past; they only wish they didn’t feel as if they were falling behind somehow. Trapped in a bed, waiting for bad news or even worse news. 

The lingering shadow at the edge of their thoughts of scions being the ones to deliver such news--the time their dearest friend has left is limited. They’ve dreamed of that moment before—it never sits well, even imagined.

G’raha sighs, picking the stained shirt sleeve and they know he knows. The long nights are proof enough.

“Ask me once more?”

G’raha speaks softly, looking up at Eyrie. They smile through the sting in their lip and the pull of the bandages across their jaw.

“Please,” they whisper, “Come to bed, Raha. You look exhausted.”

Looking longer still at them in bed; lines in his face, an expression they’re not sure if he knows he’s making. One they aren’t used to seeing on his face--one not seen since a night many long years ago. A far different place than here.

Memorizing their face in the orange candle glow; perhaps it makes them look better—a better memory to hold onto. One of the few. Before they can speak his name again, he gets up. Gently extinguishes the candles until there’s only the soft blue moonlight through the window; a full moon with naught but a cloud in the sky.

“The candles need changed tomorrow…” They mumble. In this light it’s almost too much to speak louder.

The sheets move and bed dips, Eyrie watching G’raha sit beside them. How he reaches out--touches the side of their face; tender, like a whisper to match their voice.

“I’ll change the candles tomorrow.” He murmurs absentmindedly, the light catching on red irises. Pupils darting in the dark. “Gods, how they bandage your head each day is beyond me in terms of comfort.”

“Tis quite a dashing with the blindfold, or I’m so told by the nurses. I believe tis to soothe my wounded ego.” They roll their eyes, reaching up to brush their hand over G’raha’s. Guide his hand to their lips in a soft kiss—lips barely puckered. A sigh of breath across skin so warm.

G’raha’s laugh hiccups in his chest, brushing his thumb near the corner of their lips. “I was not aware you had an ego to bruise.”

He shifts carefully, always mindful of where it hurts for them; eyrie pulls him in nonetheless, guiding him close; tucking their chin against the top of G’raha’s head, brushing their fingers through his hair to rest at the back of his head.

“I do not...”

“How unheroic of you.”

Eyrie grins, pressing a kiss to the top of his head.

“Tis disastrous, I know. Better to sleep than think about heroics, I say.” They close their eyes, sinking back into the pillow once more. G’raha shifts and they open their eyes, surprised by the intensity of his look.

“Eyrie, I--”

“I know...” They whisper, brushing their hand back along to cradle his cheek. “I know. I’ve always known.”

“Now sleep...I will be here in the morning, as I have every morning since.”

A sigh and G’raha settles back in, resting his hand on their chest. Fresh scars under the loose fabric, but still they breathe; rattling breaths as they breathe from their stomach, but breathing nonetheless. Heartbeat beneath it all, still going. Still alive.

[ssreeder]

NOOOOOOOO!!! Reeds! 😭😭😭WHY! Welp, now I have two aliases :/ (I guess I'm Pennywise :D Reeds no, it's a joke, not another alias)

Cool! :D (I'm going to have fun with this lol)

Also, damn 2,809 pages! It's okay, I'm reading a novel with 8 volumes (still waiting for 2 of them to release). If anyone knows what novel I'm talking about, then you know. ��� All I'm saying is that keep up the excellent work Reeds! :) Don't feel bad about how much you write, we love reading all of it! :D 💖💖💖 And sometimes beg for more, as in wanting to know what happens next and theorizing.

Speaking of writing. Ahhhhh! 😭 Yeah I see what you mean by fluff/angst. It was amazing! :D Ara, poor poor Ara. Wonder what role she'll play after the inevitable happens? 👀 (maybe...). Jet, he's alive... bearly, but alive! I don't have much to say for him. If he lives, he lives; if he dies, he dies, the story will go on. HEHEHE... having the characters that divide us to either love or hate them are still with us, it is going to be sooooo fun! :D

FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN. Did someone say fun! Oh yes, it was fun reading how the poor couple wanted to spend time together only to be reminded of such horrible things every so often. How misery follows them everywhere. Ohhhh... what was that comment? K**_** what an interesting conclusion. Maybe the toxins did do an effect? There's no need to think you're wrong, it just may be that! The poor boy has suffered so much before; maybe this one could be a blessing in disguise? Ara! My dear girl, how you had your own evils. Were you always like this? Or did someone do this to you? No matter, what is done is done. But how will you accept what happens next? Where will you go? Who will you go to? Maybe accept those who you want to know you now? OR... you could always betray them You could go meet the one who truly careds soon? Will you go insane? What will your journey be? Jet! Have you changed now? Or are you still battling against yourself? After all, you did sell everyone out. What will you want to do when you recover? If you recover. A missing limb is devasting, but will you let that hold you back? Or maybe dead is truly your only path now? How fun it is to see some struggle. Don't worry yet though! The fun has just begun! The sky is not red just yet!

-Red Anon

(HOW? How do I write like that sometimes? I'm surprised. Have I always been able to do that??? I'm scared ;-; )

Idk which novel you’re talking about! But it sounds like I should haha… I’m reading the poppy wars series and it’s really good so far.

Aras pov is probably the closest we will ever get to a Zuko POV. Her mind is dark and toxic and full of mental illness that makes someone feel bad for her (& some don’t) but unlike Zuko,,, Ara did HORRIBLE things to someone on purpose and Zuko was just forced to be a victim over and over again.

Zukos bending (or lack of) will continue to be a hurdle for him… I’m not saying he is a permanent nonbender but he won’t be back to full strength anytime soon. (Ha and azulas coming)

Ara & Jet are two wild cards right now because both have a BIG shock coming to them (one lost an arm & the other lost the only person left she trusted)

WE WILL SEE PAIN ANON!

Anime North 2023 - Haul

Total cost: $335 (all prices are in CAD)

Figures:

Total cost: $185 + 150

Love Live! Sunshine!! - Mari Ohara - Super Premium Figure - The First of Aquors (SPM) - $30

I think that she's so cute! I was having a difficult time deciding between a few Mari prize figures, but I definitely like this one a lot. :)

Fate stay/night - Saber - Nendoroid (#250) 10th Anniversary Edition (Good Smile) - $60

I bought her at the Nominoichi! I've never owned a full-size Nendoroid so I'm really happy to own her, especially at this price. :) She hasn't been unboxed in over 10 years... The seller was originally selling her for $70, but I was really happy to see the price drop near the end of the night, and that's what ended up cementing my decision. I love Saber so much and I'm really happy about this one. :D

Hatsune Miku - BiCute Bunnies - ~White Bunny Baby Pink~ (FuRyu) - $50

She's so cute.... and also now the largest figure I own. The stockings are made of real material (which is a cool touch), but the fabric pills a lot in the back. I don't think the stockings were executed well at all. Regardless, I think she's adorable and I absolutely love her. >_<

Hatsune Miku - Noodle Stopper Figure - Sporty Maid Ver. (FuRyu) - $45

I absolutely love the noodle stopper figures that have released recently. I love maid outfits, so I'm so overjoyed to have this one. >_< She's so cute.... it makes me want to buy cup noodles on purpose so I can take a picture of her with it. For now, she sits quite nicely on the edge of a shelf. I think I actually prefer this style a lot over figures with stands.

Manga:

Total cost: $20

From top to bottom:

Persona 3 - volumes 8 and 9

Persona 4 - volumes 7 - 10

Steins;Gate 0 - volumes 2 and 3

The Beguiling's stand at Anime North has select volumes of manga for 4/$10 every year, and I always look forward to it! I already own volumes 1-6 of both the Persona 3 and Persona 4 manga from their stand in 2019 (the last time that I attended the convention), so I'm up to 10 on P4 and I'm missing 7 on the P3 one! I don't own volume one of the Steins;Gate 0 manga, so I'll end up pirating it online. Overall, I'm always really happy to get them so cheap, especially since most of the manga I've accumulated over the years is actually from them at this price.

Artist Goods:

Separate page for full artist links is located here: ♡

Total cost: $120

From left to right:

NIJISANJI - Millie Parfait - acrylic charm (moecinna) - $15

NIJISANJI - Yugo Asuma + Millie Parfait - acrylic charms (NIKOORIN) - $25

I love these charms a lot! I was so excited to see one for Yugo. :O There were a lot of artists selling Nijisanji merch, but OP was the only one with him. >_< I have moecinna's charm on my keys and NIKOORIN's charms attached to the backpack that I take to work! They're all so cute! I put moecinna's charm on the lanyard with my badge, and I got some compliments on it while waiting in line for a panel, too. :)

Project SEKAI COLORFUL STAGE! - Nightcord at 25:00 - print (Nemururin) - $20

Her art was so pretty! I really wanted the Luxiem print, but it was sold out by the time I decided on the purchase. :( Spent my last $20 here! I was debating on whether or not I'd get her Wonderland x Showtime print or her Nightcord at 25:00 print, and Nightcord won out. If I ever see the Luxiem print up for sale again... 👀

Ichigo Magazine Tee - shirt (Ocean In Space) - $50

I absolutely love her art! I saw a post online a week before the event saying that she'd be there and I was so excited, except I couldn't find her in the artist alley. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize that her booth was in the dealer's room. >_< The shirt itself is really comfy, and the fact that it's mostly polyester is a godsend to me! (I have a lot of texture issues with cotton and don't wear it unless I'm leaving the house.) I normally wear a medium, so I bought that, and it definitely does come really oversized! I think that makes it even more comfortable, honestly. It was an intense debate on which shirt to buy, but I'm really happy with this one and I think it's so cute. ^^

Sanrio - Cinnamoroll - phone grip (uukipi) - $10

(Phone case not included, LMAO.) A ton of artists were selling phone grips this year, which was super cool! I've never used a popsocket-type phone grip, but it's actually pretty nice. :O All of the phone grips from uukipi were super cute, too, which makes me really happy. :)

Miscellaneous:

Total cost: $30

Love Live! μ’s x SNOW MIKU 2016 (Bellplans) - clear file - $3

I wasn't aware that this collab even existed! I really like Love Live! and I really like Vocaloid, this is like a collab made in heaven. The file's still in it's original packaging (which I haven't removed), so it was a bit difficult to get a good picture of it! I'm surprised that I got it so cheap at the Nominoichi, but I'm really glad that I did. :)

From top to bottom/left to right:

Code:Realize - Cardia Beckford - rubber strap - $2

Diabolik Lovers: More,Blood - Ayato Sakamaki - deka keyholder

Love Live! Sunshine!! - Yoshiko Tsushima - acrylic keychain

Love Live! Sunshine!! - Kanan Matsuura - acrylic keychain - all keychains for $5

I can't even explain how much joy I had when I found Code:Realize merch! :O I love the keychains so much, too... The girl running the table was really nice, and a lot of things were discounted right before the end of the Nominoichi, and the keychains on the bottom were 3/$5!

From left to right:

Pokémon Scarlet/Violet - lanyard - given to me by @form-sweet-form! Thank you so much!

Café Delish 2023 - Zelda heart pin, rubber bracelet, maid café ticket - $20 (for admission to the maid café)

This year, I attended the con with someone that I'd met in a DMMd server! She was super nice and it was so fun hanging out with her. :D Her cosplay of Aoba Seragaki was so good, too... She gave me this lanyard when we met up with each other! I had to wait in line for an hour and a half to get tickets for Café Delish for the both of us... it was so worth it though, it was so fun! ^^ I should've shown up even earlier, we couldn't get tickets at the same table by the time I made it... As souvenirs, I have a pin, a rubber bracelet, and a Polaroid with the maid at my table (which I will not be posting on Tumblr, as I'm not exactly eager to post my face here). I definitely wish to buy tickets for Café Delish again, and I hope to see her in the future as well!

Bandori! - 8th live - mini file map

Everything here and below were free goods given at the Nominoichi for whoever wanted them!

From the same Nominoichi seller that sold me the keychains: a whole bunch of goods given for free (originally $2 each) at the end of the night! I took a lot of them, so I ended up handing her some money (separate from the keychains LMAO) as thanks. I didn't realize until I'd gotten home that I accidentally took two of one of the envelopes. >_< If anyone happens to want the spare, I don't mind mailing it as long as you can pay shipping. Interestingly enough, the back of them has the 7-Eleven logo? These envelopes are made of plastic (clear file material) and super cute. :)

From left to right/top to bottom:

Tsukipro - Yaegashi Kensuke - Alive & Growth fan club card collection

Uma Musume Pretty Derby - Mejiro McQueen - tin

Senran Kagura - Yumi - acrylic keychain ver. A

Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai - Kobato Hasegawa - mirror

Ocean in Space - sticker

Pins:

Fire Emblem Awakening - Tharja, Gaius, Henry, Chrom

Fire Emblem Fates - Xander

Dream Daddy - Damien Bloodmarch

DRAMAtical Murder - Clear, Virus, Trip

(Pin artist - unknown. If anyone can find out who drew any of these, please let me know!)

Everything from the top (except the sticker, that one came free with the shirt purchase) is from the keychain seller! All of the pins are from another seller that had a box of pins they were giving away for free. I actually don't know much about the shows and games that they're from... I think that I want to look into Tsukipro especially! I do think that all of the goods are super cute, though. :) I was especially surprised when I peeled off the backing of the Kobato metal and found out that it was a mirror, I didn't expect that at all. :O They had other DRAMAtical Murder pins, too! I gave the Aoba and Koujaku to Raphaela (from form-sweet-form), since those were the only ones that she wanted. :) The other DMMd pins are over here, in her Anime North post! Especially happy about the Clear, Virus, Henry, and Damien pins, since I love those characters especially. :)

From left to right:

Akuyaku Reijou wa Ringoku no Outaishi ni Dekiai Sareru - postcard

5-Toubun no Hanayome ∬ - postcard

(I have no idea what the third one is from. If anyone knows, please let me know!)

Postcards! I think that they're super cute, so I picked these up from the keychain seller as well. I've never heard of any of the medias that they're from, though. The maid one is especially adorable.... I'm such a huge fan...

Overall, I had so much fun attending Anime North, and I'm really happy about the merchandise that I picked up from the convention! I've never had the money to own larger figures (over the many cons I've been to, I have two prize figures, one of which was a gift), so I'm so happy that I can actually collect them now! There are so many Miku figures that I want... Going to a convention as an adult with a job is such a freeing experience. I hope to go again next year, check out more panels, buy a lot, and hopefully go with a friend or two again!

[shinigamimailjeevas]

For the WIP tag game, all your WIPs look amazing but 1, 5, 8 and 16 have me intrigued 👀

1: A Million On My Soul– so I first started noting this April 2022 and it has 27 pages of notes/half written scenes. But it keeps getting put on the back-burner for other projects.

Eyes parted into slivers, unblinking, unmoving—lifeless. “Liam?” he tries to scrape the blood and wolfsbane from Liam's face, only managing to streak purple dust down his cheek and across his lips instead. “Liam?” He listens for the heart that had become as familiar a tune as the one that rested in his own chest; one that he had fallen asleep to for many nights only to hear silence.

“Liam!” Shaking the beta sharply, his lips curl into a facsimile of a snarl, all teeth and trembling lips. Tears form and fall as he pulls Liam into his arms, Theo hiding his face in the ruin of that stupid Beacon Hills hoodie. The one with a hole in the sleeve that constantly caught on any edge encountered and had more bleach spots than maroon color anymore. Deaton finds him minutes, perhaps even hours later. He'd heard the former emissaries footsteps long before he spoke.

“You know it is not safe to still be here.” The chimera lifts his head to look at the haggard man, face sticky with more than tears. The war had touched them all in different yet equally draining way.

“Nowhere is safe anymore.” The unspoken 'I will not leave him' hangs between them. The last light disappears with the sun as it dips below the horizon bringing shadows forth to cover part of Deaton's face. He sighs. “I really did not want to do this.”

Theo feels the jab before even noticing Deaton's hand move. As his eyes slip closed and he falls forward, the last thing he sees is the apologetic expression.

5: Learning Your Worth (Argent sells Theo) – so this oneeeeee. The basic premise is that Argent agrees to hand Theo over to another pack in exchange for information on Monroe, including hideout locations, her supporters etc. The notes are split between three documents but I have not sat down to write it out yet. It's also meant to be Thiam (with a twist pairing in the tiny sequel, entirely my beta MelMat's fault.

Alvarez—as Theo has been calling him since he refuses to call him Alpha, or any name that gives him power—paces the length of the room, hand resting on his left hip, gait throwing to the same side as the weight of his single arm messes with his balance. "I am so tired of you special bloodline folk. Or the ones who are handed abilities on a silver platter. You know nothing of what true struggle is." His red eyed gaze snaps between his beta—a rust colored shifter who Theo has never seen outside of her wolf form, who is always at Alphas heel—and Theo, who despite the continuous need to heal, is bright eyed and as smart mouthed as ever.

"I've heard of you 'chimeras'. Spliced together genetically, held together by means most have no hope of understanding." Alvarez stops, suddenly, his entire being locking up, still. So very still. Theo grinds his teeth against the spike in his instincts, the one that pleads he flee from the threat. Alvarez turns toward him, slow with movements jerking like a broken marionette; his lips are pulled back into a monstrous grin, wide, feral. "I am not most," he motions to the stump of his missing arm, flesh a gnarled white with groovespetering the end—claw marks, Theo realizes when he focuses on it, "your secrets will be uncovered. With it. The return of what is mine."

8: Asher/Liam- :) yeah. I really couldn't help myself here. Started off as a smutty oneshot idea and then kinda kept growing. A lot of the notes are not typed up yet though. But here is the opener:

Liam meets Asher at a club. At first he confuses him with the missing Chimera, but after taking an open mouthed breath—while stalking over, trying to conceal glowing eyes and lengthening teeth—he notices the lack of the soap Theo uses. This person's scent is all wrong. The look-alike smells sweeter. Like ripe pears and summer sun, whereas Theo is earthy, like really good potting soil and pine. The guy arches a brow, smiling easy and confident as Liam stops short, realizing his error but still confused because, hello, he looks almost exactly like Theo.

“Can I help you?”

Liam shakes his head.

“Sorry, You just really look like someone I know.” He smiles awkwardly back and wishes he were still across the room so he could observe not-Theo a little longer.

“Is this ‘someone’ you like to have fun with?” Not-Theo asks and Liam can smell his curiosity…and arousal as he eye-checks him. It makes him blush, but he manages not to stutter as he usually does in these situations. “Ah, no. Not like that.”

Not-Theo’s expression falls the tiniest bit in disappointment. Liam licks his lips nervously. He shifts his weight foot-to-foot and his heart starts to beat fast. He is curious. Feels kind of bold too, for once. “But maybe you could be that kind of fun.”

And not-Theo’s expression turns into a wide smile, carefree and interested. Charming, in a different way than Theo, and sincere. “Well then, shall we get the hell out of here?”

16: Beast Flesh (Scott ruins Liam) – This is pretty much smut. With an amusing ending.

"Don't give me that look," he glares down at the alpha, knowing that if Scott really tried he could overpower him unless it was a Supermoon. "You are always telling me to control myself. To keep my emotions in check. Keep the wolf in check." Clawed hands press harder against Scott's shoulders but do not dig in. "Your problem is you never let go so you can't actually help me." Liam leans in with eyes blazing gold. "Let go. For tonight, let go." Scott freezes. He doesn't even breathe.

"You don't know what you're asking." His body remains stiff under Liam, as if moving means he will give in. Liam realizes he wants that more than anything. "I want you, Scott." lips a breath from touching, Liam whispers his next words. "To. Let. Go." He kisses him and for a terrifying moment he fears he's majorly messed up, until Scott's eyes bleed a deep satisfying red. Liam has no time for a reply as his arms are pushed to the side and a clawed grip holds them tight as he is swung underneath the alpha. Scott grinds their hips together, nosing at his neck, scenting him as Liam lets out a shuddering gasp. Parting his legs, Scott falls into the welcoming space, "Liam".

His name, said like that, tightens something in the betas chest. He needs more.

Your energy is kinda vague but you probably like it that way when it comes to family. There have been disappointing or sad situations in your family, possibly with a grandparent recently, that had you down for awhile. You’re getting over that though, time has passed and you’ve healed…enough. More than healing, I’m just seeing a release of the things you can’t control, what you don’t know, what you can’t change, and what just confuses you or puts you in an ick state of mind. Holding back from anything you’re not sure of, and not really committing to something unless you are. Gemini, being air, is always partially detached from most relationships - at least in how you can separate yourself from the emotions of it all in order to logically think your way through situations. Even heavy stuff can seem to roll right off of your back, because you just get tired of it. Release! Next 😌 When you can’t though…8, 9, 10 Swords, you’re the overthinking royalty 👑 . That’s why you try to remain detached & breezy. Some of you may have recently quit some kind of substance, I’m seeing vaping or a kind of smoking in this 7 Cups. Your healing may be literal, physical. You may have or may be inspired to do so by a family member - or what they’re going through.

Oracle: Manipulation 👀 - Jupiter Scorpio

42 Courage

Have the courage to see the lessons in all situations and face them constructively.

A few possibilities here. Mom may have been your biggest challenge with your family. Her character is one of rigidity, she could be very religious and conservative, there is a certain code of conduct she expects from you (and anyone) and may be seen as a leader of some kind from others - especially at church & that crowd. Her people. She likely has a tribe that doesn’t really include you, because you don’t vibe with what she’s involved with, you don’t subscribe to her teachings. If you’re her student, you rejected the lesson 😆 But to her, there is one way - the right way - and this will never change. Or maybe that’s her own story and she left behind parents like this.

It’s also possible Mom never married, maybe she expected that at some point - either with Dad or someone else idk. There was a hope, an expectation, maybe even an engagement and it didn’t pan out like she’d planned. I get her being a very moral and wise kind of person, surrounded by manipulators and people that work against her - for many of you. She holds onto this dream of Hierophant and 10 Cups, the perfect family that all make good decisions, they’re educated, they go to church, and it’s just…not that. Anywhere. If she manipulates anyone, it’s probably herself 😕 unless she’s the hardass that isn’t very domestic or nurturing at all, but likes the “perfect picture” that doesn’t exist. Could be either side of that equation.

Allow the first thing that comes into your mind without self-censorship to bestow a vision upon you.

For many I don’t think your parents are together, but if they are, I’m not seeing any passion in this union. No sex. No spark, no playful energy, it’s duty and business period. He does love her, it’s not the deepest love that could be out here, I’m not seeing soulmates. But yes, love, and he does loving things for her. If he were tempted, he would think about straying but not have the confidence to actually do so, and Mom could change that in a heartbeat but hasn’t and probably won’t. He’s given up on that ever changing and mostly stays to himself, doing his own thing. It’s also possible that someone physically can’t.

Otherwise, Papa was a rolling stone and will always be, not the committed type but probably has left a string of broken hearts behind him - because he’s sweet as Georgia pie 🥧 Southern US? Cowboy 🤠 vibe? That’s what I’m getting for someone, take or leave that. You’re probably most like him, just being Gemini, your airy nature tends to be a bit of a rolling stone too. I don’t get him being “committed” to anything, not a job, not a person, not a house or a place. He does invest, he does get into connections, and he takes them as far as they’ll go until they don’t go anymore. Then it’s like he brushes off his hands and walks out the door, onto the next thing. A jack of all trades vibe, he could be the person in the neighborhood everyone calls to fix something. Well-known and well-liked, but never tied down. He likes it that way. I’m seeing that used to cause storms inside of you, probably as a child, but maybe not so much anymore. Both of your parents *won’t* change, that’s clear.

Trust your imagination to help you journey through your inner landscape to find what you seek.

I see one sibling (or that’s the one they’re focusing on), and they’re very fortunate although they might not recognize that per se. Could be a Leo or have that somewhere, fortune & good luck has always tended to shine ☀️ on this person, so they may *seem* ungrateful, but in their mind their feelings are genuine. This could be a person that’s always been successful, always been the center of attention, they’ve always been highly praised and had limitless opportunity. They may have seen success very young, right out of school, and they just kept on building it up - more success, more money, more more more. They’ve got a great energy.

At this point in time though, they’re feeling unfulfilled; they’ve plateaued at their *peak*; nothing is progressing or changing. They crave change while also recognizing that they’re lucky to have what they have, if that makes sense. Like they don’t want to destroy what they’ve built, but they have the endless feeling for moooore, and there is no more. They don’t think. I don’t see what this is regarding, they could have a spouse, a house, five cars, a business, a bidet and a movie theater in their house, what else is there? Some may not even want to do what they’ve been doing for the past x-years anymore, it’s old. They’re probably going through some big changes inside that they don’t talk about, because they’d feel ashamed if they did. Or they could simply sit on a chair of gold and judge you as if you are the Stuck one. Had a bad way of it, the stacks were always against you - if so, I don’t get judgy, they get it, but it could come off that way to you.

Grandparents: 3 Swords & 6 Wands

Oracle: Practicality 🪷 - Moon Capricorn

25 Cooperation

Your goal can benefit from you surrounding yourself with like-minded people.

Spirit is being vague with the grandparents, which shows several different stories, but overall they went through it and overcame their challenges - for the most part. In the smoking story, they’re the ones that inspired you to quit, probably having seen what they’ve gone through, or maybe you lost one of them in this way. If that’s the case, they know and they’re rooting for you 🥳 Alive or passed, either.

Their story of heartbreak may be INTENSE, I’m seeing immigrants, some of the worst case scenarios one could think of, heavy loss, single parents, walking 10 miles for a loaf of bread type of genuine struggle. Moon Capricorn would take that as a challenge though, and whatever this was, they probably busted their bums every single day and got through these difficult times. Practical thinking, they’re definitely the type to apply tangible effort to a situation they’re not satisfied with, rather than sitting around complaining or being sad about it. This can be an emotionally cold placement for some, but I’m not getting that from them. It’s more like they did it, you can too. Or if they could do *this*, you can do anything. They’re rooting for you 👏

Spiritual Ancestors/Guides: 10 Cups & 2 Wands

Oracle: Risk 🐻 - Saturn Aries

79 Success

Enjoying your life and the unfolding of your creative abilities as much as possible is real success.

Spirit is making it clear that you have the family you have for a reason. Gemini is skilled at “people”, you understand them, and know how to talk to them - so what sense would it make to put you in a family where everyone is exactly the same? You’d probably run for the hills 🏃‍♂️ But that’s not what this is, you have a whole family of people who are totally different from each other, and in typical Gemini fashion you’re probably the common ground everybody else has in order to connect with each other too. I heard the word “conduit” and had to look it up…idk why, they’re always right. You’re the conduit. Middle child? A lot of Gemini placements are, not all ofc, but Gemini tends to be comfortable in the middle. Ignored enough to get away with things and not take it personally, but funny and charming enough to never *really* be ignored. My own middle daughter has a Gemini rising 🥰

The conversation doesn’t flow without you, the holidays aren’t as fun, no one knows how to truly reach the other person unless you’re there directing and redirecting the flow away from tension and towards the worthwhile stuff. Having totally different family members also means freedom to do whatever the hell YOU want too, and with Saturn Aries you’re being encouraged to focus on you - solely you - and what you want to do. Whatever leaves you feeling unfulfilled, whatever you don’t want, get rid of it and move towards what you do. Easier said than done but it wouldn’t be here as your message if it wasn’t possible. Your grandparents know it too, they may be the ancestors giving you the message. Some of you may feel like you’re in a hole 🕳️ and the message is “you gotta start somewhere.” Jupiter Gemini is the best luck you can get and it’s happening right now, Spirit is poking you with a big stick like “it’s time to do the things.” 💙
