Vampireâs Lullaby
Warnings ahead for a child getting injured and threatened with more bodily harm and death, blood and gore, though not overly descriptive. Please take care of yourselves.
This is part one of a dark vampire story folks. I hope I could do it at least some justice. If you are concerned about the contents, drop me a message and Iâll answer you.
***
'Never look them in the eye, child,' the priests always cautioned. 'You'll only find the loss of your mind and virtue there, if they don't take your life immediately.'
There was no love left in the creatures of the night, in those ever hungry for blood and flesh, in the terrors of the dark. The sunlit hours were spent scurrying about, getting work done before the sun set and the monsters crawled out of wherever they hid.
Annabelle had been taught early on to ignore the luring calls and songs of some of the night creature, to keep the curtains drawn and to stay inside, no matter how frightening or pleading something sounded outside. She and all others could flinch and cry all they liked, so long as they remained in their homes.
Those who could afford it kept their homes safe, buying all that was necessary to ward off any and all night creature, while professional hunters prowled along the property. Those less rich could still often enough convince a less reputable hunter to guard their home, by offering them food and lodging and a bit of a salary.
Young, inexperienced hunters or older ones with lasting injuries usually took those less well-paid guarding jobs. Those families who could bear to have a set of working hands missing sent one of their children to get a basic education in hunting, hoping it was enough to protect their home.
Annabelle knew people less fortunate considered her one of the reasonably lucky ones. She had three older brothers and her parents had reliable merchants buying their wares. Her mother sold iron tools she made in the smithy, while her father sold his weaving. Her two oldest brothers had learned the craft of their parents, while her third brother, the youngest of the three, had gone and become a hunter.Â
Dion was the one keeping their home safe and she hated it. She hated the howls and screams and snarls of the monsters that hunted. She loathed the crooning singing that wanted to lure her towards the barred windows, cruel in its sweetness. The shadows she could sometimes see creep past during a full moon frightened her, before Dion chased them off.Â
She hated that he was out there, fighting, coming home injured and bleeding. She knew, deep down, there would be a day when he wouldn't return. None of them were lucky enough to avoid that misfortune forever. Not when it had killed her grandfather and later her uncle, while guarding the house.
Sometimes, when she came back from work, she saw her brother standing outside, hand shaking as he held his weapons. But every time he hesitated, he would look at the house, through the windows where she knew her parents and older brothers sat, still either at work or taking care of the house.Â
Then he'd look at her, walking briskly towards him in the setting sun. He'd nod at her and remain where he was, unflinching and with a straight back. In front of the house, guarding it.
The thick wooden door would close behind her when she stepped inside, lined with iron and dusted with silver shavings, expensive protective measures that had cost her grandmother and grandfather all their savings when they settled down in the city.
Dion would lock it with a hard noise before his steps faded. Annabelle hated those noises, hated how final and grim they sounded. Hated that she didn't know if he'd come back at dawn to unlock the door again.
They weren't truly locked in, she knew where the spare key was after all, they all did, but her parents wanted him to be the one to unlock it every morning. They wanted to give him every reason to come back alive.
She wished she could tell Dion to just stay inside with them. To sit in front of the fire and cover his ears when some beast howled, like he had done as a little boy. Annabelle was barely a year younger than him and she remembered helping him, clapping her hands on top of his to muffle the sounds extra hard.
No matter how much the noise had scared her as well, she had put on a brave face. When her parents had decided he should go and apprentice with a hunter, she had fought with them, for the first time in her life actually shouting and screaming while her parents grew just as loud.Â
They had been just as desperate and scared and helpless in their arguments as she had been, but that hadn't gentled her fearful fury one bit.
When she had offered to go in Dion's stead, they had waved her off with scoffs. She wasn't big and sturdy enough, they had said. She wasn't strong enough, not fast enough, no hunter would teach her. She'd be dead within her first night outside.
She couldn't bring herself to say it to Dion's face, but she thought he shouldn't have become a hunter. Then again, none of her brothers were suited for the task. Rudi, the eldest, was currently courting a young woman, hoping to marry her and have a family of his own. He always got up at dawn along with Annabelle, peering out the windows to check if Dion was alright.
Gerard, her second-oldest brother, kept on weaving late into the night, the sound of the loom by now a welcome background noise as they all settled down. She knew the reason he stayed up late was so he could listen for his little brother, to try and hear if anything happened to him. Even if he couldn't help, he still stayed up.
Since the two oldest were meant to inherit the business, continuing the craft of their parents, the horrid task of protecting the house fell on Dion's shoulders.Â
Annabelle had gotten an apprenticeship with their neighbor Mr. Bell, an older scholar and bookbinder, who had taught her everything and then hired her at his printing and book selling store.
Mr. Bell had recently started talking about letting her take over when he retired, since he was most pleased with her work. He wouldn't hand the business to her entirely right away, but he spoke about working less over the next year or two and letting her handle things more in his stead.
It filled her with fierce hope, that once he let her take over, she could earn enough money to hire a hunter. So Dion could stop reaching for cold steel and second-hand armor made of leather and rusty iron. So he could allow his hands to do something soft and gentle.
She once or twice heard him have nightmares through the wall during her free day and he barely smiled anymore and his humor had grown dark. Sometimes he managed to make her laugh, startled and a little horrified all at once, when he joked about death with other hunters in the evening, while she stopped by them to wish them a good night.
Not every night was bad, thankfully, there were even a week or two where it was utterly quiet, but it always got rough around the new and full moon.
Her brother got injured at times, coming home with a limp or a bleeding arm that got tended to swiftly so he could return outside the next night. How her mother scrubbed blood from their worn floorboards with tears in her eyes.
One day, she had promised herself therefore, he could rest. Which was why she was working from sunrise til sunset and why she stayed sweet and polite, no matter how rude a client was. Why she made sure Mr. Bell wanted her to take over his business one day and not someone else.
Her family worried about her, since she often barely made it back home in time, the sun almost gone when she arrived. Dion always looked relieved whenever he saw her hurrying down the street, his hunter garb making him look dark and foreboding.
She left early every day ever since she had figured out at what minute the sun crested the city wall enough to shine a weak, pale light along the main road. The path of the sun was always unobstructed, for across from them, on the other side of the road, was nothing but a drop down to the lowest level of the city.
That part of the city was built at the bottom of the hill that bordered on being a mountain, made up of homesteads and farmland. Scholars still argued that the hill should be classified a mountain, while others said it only looked that big because of the ostentatious, large castle built at the very top.
The fancy castle was surrounded by high walls and equally fancy manors and smoothly cobbled streets that wound down steadily. Their part of the city was always lit and very, very well protected
Annabelle usually didn't pay the upper crust much mind, she was far too busy for that, but sometimes as she walked to work, she wondered what it must be like to live without fear. To know the night creatures could not touch her.
By the time she reached the big crossroads where Mr. Bell had his business, the sunlight touched the shop and she'd unlock the door. Slipping inside, she would set everything up for the day in peaceful, soft quiet. She got the books they were selling ready in the shop and got started on their orders, mixing inks and selecting the requested paper.
Mr. Bell certainly was delighted about that, arriving with a spring in his step and all he had to do was sit down and get started.
Of course, leaving this early meant there were still some night creatures around at this hour. The last stragglers who wanted to pick off early risers who either thought they could slip by unnoticed or who had to risk their life for their income.Â
The hunters were counting on that, however. They said the monsters still out and about when the sun rose were the really stupid or inexperienced ones and usually made for easy pickings.Â
Sometimes Annabelle heard the gurgling cries as something died in an alley and she made sure not to look when she passed by. Since the night creatures avoided the sun like the plague, Annabelle was safe enough so long as she stayed on the main road.Â
Besides, she wasn't the only one with early working hours, the baker down the street got to work even earlier, risking her life every day to earn just enough coin to pay an older, banged up hunter to guard her and her children.
Dion unlocked the door for her after the fifth bell of the clock tower struck and today she saw that his eyes were dark and there was tension all throughout his frame. It must've been a rough night, for he barely said anything to her. Even the other hunters she passed by were quiet and grim, curtly nodding at her in greeting.
She wrapped her shawl tighter around herself to ward off the chill of the morning hour, warily glancing around. It was quiet enough and she only realized she had walked too fast, that the sun hadn't risen far enough yet, until she turned around the corner, one street away from the crossroads and found it lying in dark shadows.Â
The surrounding houses stood empty as of last month, which usually meant there were no hunters immediately nearby. Only, the street lying in shadow wasn't empty, like she had expected.Â
A howling snarl was cut short into a high-pitched yowl by the echoing shot of a blunderbuss. She barely got a glimpse of something big and furred crumpling to the ground, before she was nearly bowled over by a hunter running past her.
The man dragged a screaming, crying child into the sun, where it hissed and tried to cringe back, only to get gripped tighter. The hunter held the kid by their curly hair and Annabelle was about to shout at him in alarm, when she saw movement in the lingering dark.
She saw a second hunter further down the shadowed street barely dodge a beast that leapt down from above. Leathery wings nearly knocked him over as the massively oversized bat scooped up what could only be a bleeding, panting werewolf.Â
Only the bat didn't quite look like a bat either, it was far uglier for one and had arms along with wings and a body that tended a bit more towards the humanoid, leaving it looking like it had jumped straight out of a nightmare.
The werewolf reached a clawed hand for the crying child with a pained groan, while the bat skittered up the side of the building, too fast for anyone to catch up, until it was safely out of range of the blunderbuss. Then both night creatures suddenly fell still, staring past Annabelle.
Annabelle turned around, only to become still and unmoving herself. The first hunter held a silver dagger to the child's throat, a thin trickle of red blood dripping down, while black veins started to slowly appear along its skin, caused by the blade's touch.Â
The child was whimpering softly, a horrible, helpless sound that cut straight through her heart. Tears fell out of big, dark eyes and the boy was breathing fast and shallow in panic and he looked frozen in place, not daring to move even the tiniest bit.
For a long, heavy second, all Annabelle saw was Dion as a little boy, curly haired and terrified as he hid beneath the table, hands clasped over his ears as he sniffled. How she had crawled under the table to join him, pressing her own hands over his and how he had curled into himself with relief.
The kid didn't look too much like him when she blinked the memory away, the hair was the wrong shade, the eyes far too dark. But it was similar enough, along with the small button nose and chubby cheeks, to remind her of her brother when he had been little. It left her reeling for a moment.
"Move on," the hunter growled at her. "This doesn't concern you."
It didn't. It really didn't concern her. Annabelle held no love for night creatures, not when Dion carried scars from their claws and teeth. Not when she had nightmares about them and her parents had cried themselves to sleep for weeks after sending her brother out to guard them. But she couldn't bring herself to move, feet feeling frozen to the floor.
The child's gaze met hers and it was painfully clear the he wasn't human. He had fangs and claws and pointy ears, but in that moment he just looked like a helpless kid. The boy, six years at most, looked terrified, trembling all over and trying his hardest to reign in his panicked little gasps to keep the blade from digging in deeper.
The werewolf keened, a desperate, pleading call and the massive bat, the vampire, hissed, low and threatening.
"What are you doing?" Annabelle's voice sounded strange to her own ears. "That's a child."
"It's a monster," the hunter snapped back, keeping his eyes on the two night creatures high up on the wall that stared back at him. His friend was pacing down below, clearly trying to figure out how to kill them while they were distracted. Considering his sharp, loud cussing, he wasn't successful.
"Stab it or something," the pacing hunter shouted. "Lure them down, I don't want them to run or the sun to take my kill!"
The hunter pulled the dagger away in a fast, smooth motion, flipping it and Annabelle was moving before she was fully aware of it â because this was a child, no matter the pointy teeth and tiny claws. This was a child looking scared for its life, crying and trembling and she felt sick down to her core.
Pain burned bright and intensely sharp as the dagger sliced past the back of her hand, stretched in front of the kid protectively. The fingers of her other hand gripped the boy's collar tight, wrenching him away from the hunter's grasp.
The hunter's eyes were wide in startled, baffled surprise as she pushed the boy behind her, her own eyes wide and her breathing harsh and fast. She had half a second to watch fury take over, before the sound of crunching, crushing stone broke through the air like a miniature thunderstorm.
The hunter whirled around and Annabelle felt a scream getting caught in her throat as a large chunk of wall came flying, too fast to dodge, slamming into him and leaving a smear of blood and broken bones behind.
Everything became a little fuzzy and blurry around the edges, as she turned to see the vampire rip out another chunk of wall, tossing it after the now fleeing hunter below it, crushing the man into a pulp of red, wet flesh, broken pieces of bone poking out.
She heaved in a breath to avoid throwing up, gaze darting back to land on the vampire and the still injured werewolf it carried beneath one arm, braced against its gray, fuzzy shoulder.Â
The boy's heaving, suddenly loud wail made her flinch, jolting back into her body. She took a step back until she could see him without losing sight of the monsters up on the wall.
"You're alright," she found herself whispering with a trembling voice. Hesitantly she reached out, fingers shaking as badly as the kid did and nausea was still roiling through her gut.
The moment she lightly touched his shoulder, he tipped forward, knees buckling. Annabelle just barely managed to catch him, awkwardly holding him for a second, before she took a deep breath and picked him up. He weighed as much as a regular kid did, largely looked like one too, if one discarded the obvious signs where he was not.
And yet, as she watched, the longer the sun shone on him, the more those signs faded. His ears became round and the fingers that curled into her shawl were now normal, his nails short and blunt.
The scrape of claws on stone made her flinch and when she looked up, the vampire was right there, standing where the dark ended and light began. It clearly couldn't cross over and Annabelle felt her breath caught in her lungs as she stared up.
For the first time in her life, she felt tiny and flimsy and utterly mortal. The werewolf was reaching out towards the boy, breathing labored and it clearly couldn't stand on its own two legs. The vampire's arm still around its middle was the only thing holding it up.
The boy lifted his head and sobbed, reaching back towards the werewolf. The cut on his throat wasn't bleeding anymore, but there were still black veins, even if they were slowly growing fainter. Silver poisoning, Annabelle thought faintly, remembering the books Dion had been given while training and that she had peeked at.
Annabelle carefully set the boy on his feet without looking away from the big vampire, its large ears flicking as it listened. The boy stumbled forward the moment she let him go and the second he crossed into the dark, the vampire swept him up too and after a last glance at her, took flight.
It clearly wasn't dumb enough to wing up into the sky, not with the rising sun, but it was still startling to see something so big move so swiftly and quietly down the street, maneuvering smoothly around the corner and then it was gone.
Annabelle stared after them, unmoving. She didn't dare look towards the crushed hunters, her heart racing painfully fast in her chest and her stomach still roiling. Her hand was bleeding, pulsing with pain and she reached up to numbly wrap the end of her shawl around it.
Two minutes later, the sun had risen far enough for her to walk on, stumbling away from the bodies. No one had been around to see her or what had happened, not that she had noticed at least. No one had come to check either, not when the houses along this part of the street were empty.
By the time she stood in front of the shop, she was still shaking and it took her two tries to get the door open. As soon as the door fell closed behind her with a click and the familiar scent of her workplace surrounded her, she broke down into tears.
Mr. Bell, when he arrived, made her sit down, cleaned and bandaged her hand properly and handed her a sip of brandy that burned going down.
"You will take it easy," he said in a voice that allowed no arguments and he muttered under his breath, "I should've known leaving home that early was too dangerous."
She didn't correct him, because then she didn't have to explain how she had gotten injured. Instead, she was quiet and worked as much as he let her, while trying to ignore any remarks their clients made regarding her subdued spirits.Â
She was sorely tempted to throw something, however, when a particularly arrogant man told her to smile, for it made her look prettier than her current, glum expression.
When the evening bell rang, the one warning everyone to get home now or it would be too late, she felt a fierce jolt of fear race down her spine.
She was suddenly terrified to go out there, to see the night creatures again or to run into someone who had known the dead hunters. Who asked around if anyone had seen anything. Or even someone who might have seen her after all, but had been too far away and preoccupied to do anything.
But she couldn't hide here, the crossroads were filled sorely with businesses and hunters didn't protect areas where people didn't live, at least they didn't if the owners weren't rich enough.Â
The rich and powerful were about the only ones who had stopped fearing the night. They had the coin to pay for all the protection they could ask for and sometimes, during particularly quiet, calm nights, Annabelle could faintly hear the music of their parties.
She knew she couldn't stay here unless she wanted to die. So she grabbed her things, wound the shawl around her neck and locked up the shop. Mr. Bell had left an hour ago after making sure she would be alright, making her promise that she would go straight home.Â
The spreading shadows looked darker and more frightening than ever before and her steps grew faster and faster until she was nearly running.
No one stopped her, no one even looked at her more than usual and no monsters appeared. Not yet.Â
Dion was chatting with another hunter, the woman's gear looking as banged up as his did, when Annabelle arrived at home. He glanced at her, only to pause and frown.
"Did something happen?" he asked and Annabelle plastered a smile on her face, hoping it looked convincing.
"Just a little accident at work," she answered, waving her bandaged hand around and tucking it against her side before he could get a proper look at it. "Nothing serious, but I'm tired."
His frown smoothed over a bit, even if he still looked worried. "I'll unlock the door."
He accompanied her to the front step and as she stepped inside, she couldn't help but turn around. "Please be careful."
"I always am," he answered, but she must've looked scared, as scared as she felt, because his face softened a bit. "I promise."
He never promised to come back in the morning, because they both knew there was a chance that he wouldn't. Annabelle suddenly felt fiercely angry and tired and there was a sting of self-loathing.
She had gotten two hunters killed and monsters had gotten away alive. What if those night creatures were the ones to murder her brother? What if that little boy grew up to become someone else's nightmare?Â
She couldn't bring herself to regret saving him, not when she remembered that gut-wrenching fear on his face. But she couldn't help wishing the hunters had remained unharmed, no matter how nonsensical it was. Someone had to die when night creatures and hunters clashed.
She never again wanted a hand in deciding whose fate it was to be killed.
Dion locked the door and Annabelle managed to wave off the concern of her parents and older brothers and retreated to her room. She wasn't hungry and when she sat down on her bed, she could see the sinking sun.
Her room felt stuffy, so she opened the window, knowing she still had a few minutes to air out the room. Iron bars protected her window and she could still see Dion from here, waving at a hunter further down the street.
The memories of this morning resurfaced once again and would not let go. Annabelle started to tug at the bandage on her hand until a sharp pain made her wince. Glancing down she saw a bit of blood bleeding through and she took a couple of deep breaths.
What was done, was done, she reminded herself. Short of walking to the city guard and getting arrested and executed for mingling with the night creatures, there was nothing she could do.
Glancing up, she noticed that the sun had disappeared behind the city walls and while the sky wasn't entirely dark yet, she saw something big fly past. Flinching back, her heart suddenly hammering, she fumbled to slam the window closed.
She yanked the curtains shut as well, almost ripping them off, her fingers trembling as she clung to the thick fabric. It wasn't the same massive vampire bat, she told herself, there were many night creatures after all. Surely it was something else.
But Dion was out there and if he died because she hadn't been able to harden her stupid, soft heart against the face of a crying, terrified child, she'd never forgive herself.
It took a few deep breaths for her to calm herself and after long minutes of standing there while nothing happened, she got ready for bed. Tonight seemed to be a quiet night tonight and she laid in bed, listening carefully for anything horrible. When she heard Dion's rough, muffled laughter drifting up, she finally let herself relax.
Her eyes started to slip closed when a scratching sound on stone made her jolt upright so fast she briefly got dizzy. Heart racing once again she felt froze in place as a large shadow covered her window. She couldn't see anything through the curtains, but this size let her know what exactly was outside.
She didn't dare make a noise. She heard a muffled clack a moment later and then the shadow vanished with another quiet scratch of claws.
Annabelle sat in the silent darkness of her room, her breathing a little funny and when, at last, she managed to make herself move, her heart finally calmed down a little.
Pulling the curtains apart just enough to peek through, she blinked in surprise when she saw a folded page of thick paper on her windowsill, weighed down with a rock. She stared at it for a moment, then let go of the curtains again.
Annabelle wasn't dumb enough to go and open the window right now. So she backed up and sat down and stared. She didn't think herself capable of falling asleep again that night, but between one blink and the next, the sun was rising and she was lying crookedly on her bed.
Getting up and groaning at the crick in her neck, she approached the window once again. The sun was just peeking over the wall when she opened it and plucked the paper from beneath the rock. It was slightly damp from being outside and the move sent the rock tumbling down to the ground.
Unfolding the page, she blinked in surprise when the clumsy handwriting of a child greeted her first. The letters were clearly written with great care and as she read, it felt like a big hand was squeezing her heart.Â
The kid was thanking her for saving his life and that of his mother and auntie. He said that he had been so scared, that he thought all humans were cruel and evil, but she clearly wasn't. He had added a sketch of her, childish and simple and cheerful.
Below that, in a neat and elegant hand, one of the night creatures had written that they owed her and she could ask for one favor. All she had to do was leave a note outside her window and if possible, it would be fulfilled.
Sitting down on the chair in front of her desk, Annabelle found herself reading the letter again. Then she slowly folded it and didn't know what to think or feel or do. In the end she hid the letter and got ready for work, mind still spinning in circles.
Dion looked tired but unharmed and he even smiled at her when he let her out of the house, going so far as to twirl the key around his finger. "Have fun," he called after her when she left with a little wave.
Nothing happened on her way to work and Mr. Bell looked happy to see that she was doing better today. He left halfway through the day, citing that he needed to take care of something, though Annabelle got the sneaking suspicion that he was looking for excuses to leave the shop in her hands for a while. To get her used to running it in his absence.
It was all going well and fine, until she heard the tinkle of the front door and when she stepped out of the backroom, she stilled mid-step. A curly haired kid with dark eyes was peeking over the counter, clearly on his very tip-toes.
A smile broke out over his face. "Hello," he said with a small lisp, as if it was entirely normal that a night creature was out and about in the middle of the day. Looking utterly human.
Oh. A cold realization washed over her. Of course night creatures looked human during the day. The hunters would have found a way to eradicate them all otherwise. There were only so many places they could hide before being found.
Then she frowned. Did that mean they could walk out into the sun too? Or only some of them?
"Did you get my letter?" the boy asked. "Mama said I shouldn't come here, but I wanted to make sure."
"Yes," she managed to answer. "I got it."
His face lit up. "Good." Then his face fell and he sank down a bit, eyes barely peeking over the counter. "Thank you. That was...that was really scary."
"I bet it was." In all honesty, his situation had probably been far scarier than having a large monster show up in front of her window for a second. She couldn't stop herself from adding, "You need to be more careful."
The kid shuffled a bit in place, looking chastised. "I wasn't supposed to go outside," he told her, fingertips tapping against the edge of the counter he clung to. "But Mama was gone longer than usual and I got worried."
"I bet she's worried now," Annabelle said and suddenly she couldn't get rid of the thought that another night creature was going to show up. A grown, dangerous one. "Unless you told her where you are?"
The kid looked caught. "Um..."
She couldn't help but huff and made a shooing motion. "Go home before she worries."
The kid was about to push away, when he suddenly looked worried. "You won't tell anyone, right?"
Annabelle knew the moment she gave a description of the kid to the hunters, they'd comb the surrounding area for him and his mother. It was forbidden to get tangled with the night creatures, always had been.
Though, now that she looked at the kid, she couldn't help but think that the hunters were just as ruthless. And they could be just as cruel as the monsters.
"I won't," she said at last. "Now off you go."
The kid stepped away with a relieved smile and hurried towards the door, only to pause. "If we can help you, we will," he said. "Mama says we owe you one."
With those words he slipped out, the bell tinkling merrily. Annabelle exhaled in a rush and leaned against the counter, watching the kid through the shop window as he left with quick steps. Rubbing a hand over her face, she shook her head and returned to work.
She didn't have time to think about the difference between monsters and hunters, not when it left her mind in a messy state. There was too much work to do.
Mr. Bell came back later than he had said, whistling when he saw how much she had gotten done. It helped keep her distracted and by the time she wrapped up the last order of the day and got a head start on the next one, the final bell was ringing.
To her misfortune, she found her usual way back home blocked by a tipped over carriage. Horses were panicking and people were shouting and crowding around, trying to fix the situation as quickly as possible.Â
There was no way to get past and a nervous glance at the sky told her she couldn't wait until the situation got resolved, even if taking any other path meant a detour. Already the frazzled travelers were shouting how late it was and that they needed to get going now.
Tugging her shawl more firmly around herself, she turned to eye the nearby alley. It laid in shadow, but there was nothing else she could do. Even if she now knew that night creatures could look like ordinary humans, she was willing to risk the alley rather than stay on the main road until the sun had disappeared entirely.
Still, her heart was racing a bit and she was nervously glancing around. It got quiet as she left the hectic road behind and soon the only sounds were her shoes on rough cobblestone and occasionally voices drifting out of still open windows.
Some of the houses back here stood empty, broken windows and destroyed doors showing where night creatures had gotten through. Claw marks were visible where the monsters had crawled in and she saw bloody drag marks in front of one door, where someone or something had been hauled away.
It was dark by the time she emerged from the alley and the sight of the sun beyond the city wall made her breath catch. Home wasn't too far, however, surely she'd be fine.
She was about to rush ahead, when she heard the sound of claws on stone. For a moment she was about to just blindly start running, heart pounding, before she made herself look up. There it was, the nightmarish bat, crouched at the corner of the roof, wings folded primly.
They stared at each other for a long moment, until one of the vampire's ears flicked and it slowly moved one arm to point down the street. Towards her home. When she didn't move right away, it made a shooing motion, wings twitching.
Slowly taking a step and then another while not looking away, Annabelle started walking. The vampire followed her slowly, not even needing to leap across the alley onto the next roof. It just needed to stretch in order to reach.
Forcing herself to look away when she stumbled and nearly fell, Annabelle found herself walking faster and faster. When Dion came into view, waiting outside, visibly tense and worried, she looked up again.
The vampire was nowhere to be seen, but she heard the faint scratch of claws and realized that the night creature wanted her to hear it. She hadn't heard a damn thing until it had crouched above her, after all. It allowed her to track it.
"You're late," Dion said in greeting, checking her over for injuries while ushering her towards the house. "Get in, now."
She was pushed through the door before she could say anything and the lock clicked into place. Annabelle found herself swarmed by her family, all worried and scolding.
She ate dinner while barely tasting anything and retreated to her room as quickly as possible. The curtains were still open and when she reached for them, she saw the vampire, a few roofs away, out of view of the hunters down below.
She saw its dark eyes glint in the moonlight when it turned its head towards her, large ears perked. She found herself staring for a long moment, before she startled, remembering the warnings about getting thralled and lured outside.
But she felt fine, she realized as she was about to yank the curtains closed. Her mind was still her own. Surely she'd notice if it wasn't? She didn't feel compelled to go towards it â quite the opposite in fact. If anything, she wanted to stay right where she was, thank you very much.
Then the vampire's ears flicked and it was gone between one moment and the next, moving far, far too fast for a creature that size. Annabelle closed the curtains and took a deep breath.
She really needed to get some rest and hope that tomorrow made more sense again.
.*.*.*.
Over the next couple of days things made no more sense than previously and Annabelle resolved to just not think about it anymore. She had ended up saving a night creature child, they were grateful, no one had killed her in the process and now she'd continue living as she always did.
Sometimes she spotted the vampire, flying by or peering across the roofs towards her window. At first it frightened her worse, until she realized that it must be checking for any notes she might leave. In case she wanted to cash in that favor she was now apparently owed.
This, too, she resolved to not think about. There was nothing a night creature could give her, after all.
Right up until she waited at the door in the morning and Dion didn't open it. Her worry grew and she fidgeted, exchanging a glance with Rudi, who was peering outside the windows anxiously.
"I don't see him," her oldest brother murmured, shifting restlessly in place. After another moment he decided, "I'll go get the key."
He left and returned just as swiftly and the moment she had the door unlocked, Annabelle rushed outside. "Dion?" she called out.
"Over here," the voice of one of the other hunters answered and she ran, Rudi right behind her. Skidding to a stop at the small alley three houses down, she sucked in a sharp gasp.
Dion was lying in a pool of blood, breathing shallowly and two hunters were kneeling grimly at his side, doing their best to staunch the bleeding.Â
"Get a doctor, now," one of the hunters snapped out and Annabelle was moving again, running past a worried Mr. Bell, who poked his head out of the window, looking sleep-ruffled.
Everyone knew where the nearest doctor was and how long it took to get to their clinic. Thankfully, the doctors all got up early, knowing the first thing they usually did was stitch up an injured hunter.
Dr. Under was a seasoned, experienced woman with incredibly steady hands and a cool composure and she was the doctor everyone on the street and the next ones went to. With her guidance they got Dion into her clinic and then all they could do was wait. Annabelle stared down at the blood on her hands and sleeves from where she had held Dion's legs beneath the knees.
Rudi had left reluctantly, promising to tell Mr. Bell that she wouldn't be in and to inform the rest of their family. Soon they all sat in the waiting room, silent and scared. Annabelle had to bite down on the accusations that crawled over her tongue like brambles. Her parents looked horrified and guilty enough as it was.
"He'll make it," Dr. Under said the moment she stepped out of the treatment room. "He's going to be out of commission for a couple of weeks, however. I'd recommend letting him rest and recover for a couple of months even, but he could work again sooner."
Meaning she knew their family didn't have the money to pay a hunter to replace him. Before Dion had protected them, her uncle had, who had died a few weeks before her brother had taken over.
They wouldn't be entirely unprotected, the other hunters looked out for the surrounding buildings since not everyone had a protector. Five hunters, Dion included, regularly protected the entirety of their street.
But if they had to choose between protecting their own home or Annabelle's, the hunters would choose their own families or employees. It was risky, not paying for or having someone guard the house.Â
Her parents did not have the funds to pay for help, they all knew it. They would have to risk having no one and then Dion would have to go out the moment he was well enough, instead of healing up fully.
As she found herself ushered outside, Dr. Under promising that Dion would remain safe here until he could go home, she stared at her cold hands, finger knotted into her bunched up shawl.
She returned home with her family, swallowing down anger and fear with nearly every step. She hated all of this. Hated that night creatures wanted them dead, hated that her brother had to suffer, hated that they were never, ever safe when it was dark.
She had heard that the countryside was less dangerous, that night creatures preferred to flock to cities. They liked the amount of humans that lived there. She had heard rumors that someone had angered night creatures so much once upon a time, that they still sought retribution to this day.Â
She just wanted it all to be over.
As soon as she was back in her room, blood cleaned off, she pulled out the letter the little boy had sent her. She hesitated for a long moment, then she pulled out a piece of paper and dipped her quill into her inkpot.
It took her a few tries to get it right, crossing out words and staring out the window to the spot where the vampire usually sat shortly before it left again. She wrangled with her thoughts, her distrust and fear.
Night creatures were dangerous, everyone knew that. They held no love for humans and most of the time not even for each other. It was foolish to trust one, to put her hopes in one.
And yet, as the sun set, she left a folded piece of paper on her windowsill, weighed down with the same rock the night creature had used previously. It had still lain where it had gotten dropped a couple of days ago.
She stared at it for a long while, then she took a deep breath and kept the window open, the curtains pulled back. If she was going to do this, she had to look the vampire in the eye. If she gave a night creature the information that their house would be unguarded, ready for reaping, she had to try to spot any possible deception before it got them all killed.
She saw the vampire appear a few minutes after sundown and how it paused, obviously spotting her and her note. It tipped its head a bit to the side and it remained still for a long moment. Then it moved.Â
It arrived far too fast, nearly making her flinch back, hanging upside down from her roof. Hands the size of her head braced themselves left and right of her window and Annabelle had to force herself to not look away.
She had made precautions of course in case the vampire tried to thrall her. Her room was locked and the key dropped behind her big, heavy dresser, which would make a racket if she tried to move it. The bars in front of the window held shavings of silver and even if the vampire hypnotized her, it wouldn't get to kill anyone but her.
If that was the grim price for foolishly hoping she could trust a night creature, she'd pay it. But the vampire didn't do anything. At last it shifted its weight and pulled the note free with its clawed fingertips, thumbing it open to read it.
"Can you do it?" Annabelle found herself whispering, voice cracking and throat dry.
The vampire pulled itself up out of view and she saw its shadow on the roof across from her window, the house not built as high. She saw it change, turning from hulking and winged to something that looked human, crouching above her. She saw long hair move in the strong night breeze.
"I accept," the voice of a woman answered. "Consider it done."
Her breath escaped her in a big exhale and she had to grip the windowsill, knees suddenly trembling. "Thank you." Her voice shook a little.
The vampire hummed, then it asked, "Why did you not tell your city guards about my godson when he visited you?"
Annabelle knew what her family would have done, what Mr. Bell would have done. What the entire city would have done. But she hadn't been able to and she didn't know if that was a good or a bad thing.
"He's just a kid," she found herself answering honestly, watching the vampire's shadow. "It didn't seem...fair. To hurt him just because he's not human. Or to rob him of his family."
Nothing about this was fair. Not little boys nearly getting their throats slit open or her brother, brave and bloody, lying on dirty cobblestone. After what she had seen the hunters do to the boy, she couldn't even say anymore that only the night creatures were cruel.
"I see. You're a brave one, you know," the vampire said. "I've yet to meet a human who dared to look me in the eye when they knew what I was, not even your hunters do it."
Annabelle pressed her lips together, then she lifted her chin. She was sick and tired of being scared. She was sick and tired of fearing for her life and begging a god who might or might not be listening for her brother's safety. If a monster could do the job instead, she'd gratefully accept the help.
"You're not all that scary," she made herself say with more confidence than she felt. "You actually look kind of fluffy as a bat." And very frightening.
The vampire laughed, sounding surprised and darkly amused. "I think I like you," she said, a grin audible in her voice. "Brave, smart and sweet, you are quite something, I believe."Â
The shadow shifted and it looked as though the vampire had sat down on the roof and Annabelle had no idea what to say.
"Sleep," the vampire told her, voice gentler than before. "I will not let anything happen to you and yours."
Annabelle walked away from the window on slightly unsteady legs, leaving it open. She wanted to hear it, if something happened. Even if she knew, rationally, that she couldn't do anything, she still wanted to know if the vampire would abuse her trust.
She dropped onto her bed, watching the bit of the vampire's shadow she could still see. Slowly, her pounding heart calmed down and she slipped beneath the covers, watching her curtains shift gently in the breeze.
That breeze actually felt pretty nice, even if every stray sound made her jerk upright. She only realized the vampire had started to sing softly when her eyes fell closed, lulled to sleep by a monster's soft voice.

check yes to go on a date w a dead guy ch 4 progress
next chapter here
(masterpost with this story here)
It took a minute for Jason to recover from that realization. He kept the anger he felt off his face. Danny didnât seem upset about dying young, but that didnât mean much. It wasnât an appropriate topic to prod about on a first meeting. Heâd get there eventually.
Jason stilled. Ah, shit, he still didnât have a plan. Just eating together was too short and too boring. He needed to have something better than that.
Fuck, what were they going to do next?Â
Jason strained for ideas. What was a good date? Normally, he'd know more about a person before they hung out romantically.Â
Well. Actually, normally he hung out platonically with someone a lot before he started to feel interest in them. This was all kinds of backwards: but he didn't want it to end yet.Â
âSo, uh, what do you like to do?â Jason asked. Masterful. So smooth.
Danny scrunched up his nose. âLately my afterlife sucks,â he groused. âI am drowning in paperwork and busy stuff.â He slumped over. âI miss being in high school,â Danny sighed. He drew his knees in and rested his elbows on them, then squished his cheeks with his palms. âI guess I used to just hang out, you know?â He shrugged. âPlayed a lot of video games. I miss that.âÂ
âOf course,â Jason said, despite never having hung out and played video games in high school. He'd been an overscheduled nerd in junior high school and then been too dead for high school. âThat sounds fun. Wanna go back to mine and play something later?â
Danny lit up, blue eyes sparkling in the fading light. âYes! That would be great.â He straightened his legs and kicked his heels against the side of the building. âWait, can we do the whole grungy high school hangout thing with pop and chips and dip and pizza and stuff?â
He almost said âwe literally just ateâ, but what the hell. âWe'll hit the store next,â Jason said. He couldn't say no to that face. Look at âem. He was so excited.
'Ugh, god. Danny died in high school,ââ Jason realized. He'd already known Danny died young but it still stuck in his stomach like a rock. 'No wonder he misses what he did then. He's interacting with the physical world now but if he died, he probably went to like, dead land immediately.â
But, uh. Video games. He could do that. He kept up a conversation as his mind churned, asking Danny what kind of games he liked.
The thing was, Jason didn't really play video games. He had a console at his place and if he was hanging out with Roy or Dick there, they'd bring a game over. He owned like, two games.Â
He considered popping by the store and just buying something. But that would be weird and intense. He'd probably freak Danny out if he went and dropped money on a game just to play with him.Â
Ok. Well. He'd get someone to drop off games before he and Danny could get back to the apartment. Jason sneakily got out his phone and strategized.Â
Steph? No. Terrible. He couldn't let that girl know he had a date until the poor bastard really liked him for sure. She'd either chase Danny off or somehow orchestrate the two of them getting engaged.Â
Tim? God, no. He'd definitely own a lot of games but they'd all be for the PC, and he'd hang around and smirk about Jason meeting up with Danny.
Dick? Too far away, and way too smug. He'd take it as an opportunity to tease.
Oh, wait. He had it. Jason opened up a message to Duke and sent out a quick âI want to bribe you. Homemade pizza? Artichoke dip? Fried oysters???âÂ
âDid you take a life?????â Duke shot back. Then, âpizza! What do you need?âÂ
âGet to my place with a bunch of video games that'll work on my tv in less than an hour and I'll make whatever you want.âÂ
The three dots indicating typing popped up. They stayed there for a weirdly long time. Then, Duke said, âCan I stay and hang out? đ„șâ
Adorable little bastard. Jason typed out NO and then hesitated, feeling kinda bad.
âWho's that?â Danny prompted.Â
Ah, shit, he was being rude. Jason flushed. âAsking a little brother to bring over a game,â he admitted. âHe wants to stay.âÂ
Danny laughed. âThat's adorable,â he announced. âIt's fine by me. Lots of games are better with more people, anyway.âÂ
Well. If that was the case, Jason was fine with it. He sent Duke an OK and then put his phone away before the inevitable âI AM THE FAVORITE SIBLINGâ fireworks started.Â

It's nice to have a friend
Percy Jackson x mortal fem!reader
Warnings: use of Y/n, mentions of almost dying, Percy's stupid at some points, friends to lovers
Summary: Percy can't let your hands freeze to death, only because he had to make you lose yours in the first place.
Masterlist
Looking out the window Y/n saw the frozen water falling down from above. Their heritage, the clouds, were a dark color of white, however the snow didnât make the scene dark, it made it comfortable. It gave her a type of warm hug, a feeling she couldnât forget. A feeling she wanted to save for the warm summer days, the same as she saves the sun for rainy days, and the rain for when the flowers bloom.
The bell rang, signaling that the lesson, and the school day therefor, was over. Y/n sighned, she did want to walk through the streets covered in snow, but her hands would freeze to death in the meantime, since she lost her gloves a year before.
With her hands in the pockets of her coat and her gaze on the floor, watching the snow squish under her boots, while new one fell onto them, she concentrated on the music in her ears. Only looking up when she heard childâs laughter. On the other side of the sidewalk, 4 kids were having a snowball fight, laughing together when one gets hit by the snow. Y/n stopped, admiring the fun in their eyes.
âYou wanna join them?â A voice beside her asked.Turning around, she saw her best friend, Percy.
She would still concider him her best friend, even when he started to ditch her every summer for some summer camp he couldn't tell her too much about. She liked the boy, she really did. But something about his behavior when she asked him about it didn't sit right with her. It was like he didnât want her to know. Before this, Percy would've told her everything. No matter what, she used to always be the first to know. Whether it be about a new school he was sent to or someone that bullied him on that day. It was always her. Now it were his new friends.
She tried to tell herself that it was because Percy wanted to leave some of his old life behind whenever he went to summer camp. Like it were two seperate worlds. But she knew that Grover, another friend of Percy's, was also there.
"I canât," she answered. "I lost my gloves last year, after you had to take me to one of those." She pointed to the kids, smilling at the memory of back then.
âOh, yeah.â He remembered, laughing at the memory as well.
Both of them were prepared to make the other go down and suffer in the snow that day a year ago. It was a simple and nice idea, until Percy decided he had to help a duck on the lake. At that time he hadnât had snow gloves himself, so he borrowed Y/nâs.
Long story short, the duck ended up almost drowning, together with Percy, but could rescue itself, while the gloves were sliding from Percyâs hands and fell into the freezing water. He hadnât bought her new oneâs, he insisted on doing so, but she refused to accept them when he got them for her. She didnât want him to spent his money on her, so she said she would buy new oneâs herself. Since it was technically her own fault for giving them to him, when she knew they wouldnât end up on her own pair of hands anyway. However, she forgot until it was too late.
"You almost died that day, how can you laugh about it?" She asked the pale boy. With the white snow surrounding him he fit right into it.
"t was a fun day, you canât deny it, can you?" He asked her, searching for the comformation he always craved from her. He wanted her to agree with him in everything, so that he knew that they were still balancing on the same thin line like before all the sudden changes in his life.
Spending time with her always kind of made him feel more at ease. She was his home. She was who he was so used to, he could tell her everything. Besides about camp and his now second life. It was too dangerous. So, he keot it to himself. Rather have her angry than dead, right?
"It was a fun day," she agreed, stuffing her hands further into her pockets from the cold temperatures.
"Have mine," Percy said, holding his gloves into her direction, after seeing her shaking body.
"No, thanks,â she said, continuing walking home. "Iâm not even that cold."
But the chattering of her teeth betrayed her and Percy looked at her with a dumbfounded expression.
"Then have one at least," he tried to compromise, looking into her eyes with that certain look. Raising his eyebrows, Percy moved the glove more to her body, until she couldnât refuse to take it anymore. Rolling her eyes in annoyance, she put the black glove over her freezing hand. Feeling the warm of his hand from before, made an slight blush creep up on her face. Which she played off from the cold.
"What is with the other, genuis?" she asked. She didnât want a second glove but a conversation.
He only took her hand into his, beginning to walk again, not looking at her once. Her face grew even hotter and her body was filling with warmth as their bare freezing skin touched and exchanged body heat. Both were burning from the desire of this being more than a friendly encounter.

lie to me: part two
lie to me << the first part
lovesick! eddie x fem reader
1k
tw: 18+ mentions of sex, angst, fuck girl reader caught in her feels
summary: the story of how you fell for the guy you were fucking casually, and how it tore you apart to pretend you didnât.
Three months. You told yourself that it was just sex. But that was another lie.Â
In his van, your car, your apartment, the dock on Loverâs Lake, Rickâs house when Eddie house sat for him, his trailerâ even in the baseball dugouts back at Hawkins High: you were inseparable.Â
Friends with benefits, only you werenât really friends to begin with. but ohhh babyâŠthe benefits with Eddie were good.Â
You werenât looking for love and neither was he. It was straightforward. A deal made on shook hands and sealed with a first kiss. One neither of you forgot.Â
Three months was all it took for you to fall for him. For you to get butterflies when he called you sweetheart, baby, angel. For you to claim he hung the stars that you were destined to meet.Â
Ninety days.Â
You remember the exact moment. The way your heart skipped, palpitating out of rhythm. It felt like the wind was punched out of your guts, laid across a train track to be squished.Â
It was an ordinary night, middle of the week. He called but you were huddled into a ball on your bed, cramped and sad explaining you couldnât, the pain you were in was too damn much.Â
He understood. Never pouted, never begged. Thirty minutes passed and a knock sounded at the door. It was him.Â
Carrying two bags. Candies, chocolates, a bottle of vanilla lotion in the otherâSteel Magnolias, Overboard, St. Elmoâs Fire.Â
He wore a lopsided grin, casual, nonchalant like it was normal to show up at your door like this. Fuck he looked good in blue.Â
He cried when Shelby died. Laughed when Goldie Hawn said she was âa short, fat, slut.â And told you how much he hated Emilio Estevez but that heâd watch it for you.Â
He held you in his arms with you in front of him, whispering in your ear apologizing if he fell asleep, work had been busy this past weekâ but he could go home whenever you wanted him to leave.Â
Eddie did fall asleep. His dark unruly hair cascaded across the soft cotton pattern on your pillows. His shirt rode up from his position of snuggling into your bed.Â
And you knew.Â
Knew you felt more for him than you originally intended. That he was too sweet, and he deserved better than you. You cried into your pillow. Silent tears carving a path down your cheeks. Tears for the boy you had to let go.Â
Your calls became scarce. Finding your way beneath unfamiliar sheets, kissing lips that werenât his. Hands held your body that you couldnât even pretend belonged to him.Â
Steve was nice, smelled like expensive department stores and fresh wads of cash. But he wasnât Eddie. Jonathan was eager, certain to follow you around, but tooâ wasnât Eddie.Â
Eddie. Eddie. Eddie.Â
Your heart jumped when you saw him, eyes eased into a crinkled little smile. The distance you drove between you both hurt him just as much as it was killing you. But you didnât have a choice.Â
Drive homes from Steveâs were spent wiping tears away, hating yourself for what you were doing to Eddie. He knew there was others, but he never said anything, and you silently hoped he would so you could explain, profess your love for him⊠but he beat you to it, and you were stunned.Â
-
He woke to a strange noise: a soft whimper. Your under eyes wet, as if you had been crying, but you were sound asleep. Eddie never wanted to let you go, but he knew you did this for him, because he had begged you too.Â
Before you could wake and look at him as if he were the worst person alive, he left. Whispering a goodbye at your door frame, tears clinging to his lashes.
âIâll love you, always.âÂ
-
Days turned to weeks, weeks faded to months. He went on a few dates with some really nice girls, but he somehow managed to screw it upâ calling them by your name by accident. Talking about you to them, and even driving past your apartment once before dropping them off.Â
He was sleeping now, not drowning himself in whiskey or making drunken phone calls to Jeff blubbering about how he missed you.Â
Spring brought forth beauty he wasnât sure heâd see again after crawling out of the dark hole he was in. Pink flowers blossomed on trees, lavender dipped lilacs perfumed the parking lot behind the shop where he was taking his lunch break.Â
He decides against a cigarette, opting to chew a piece of gum instead, laying on his back on the rotted picnic table, taking in the gentle breeze.Â
The bell above the door jingles loud enough for it to reach the back through the quiet of the slow day. He sighs, jumping up and jogging across the gravel. Â
Reaching the front counter he doesnât look up, knowing Todd was coming in to pick up his Chevy.Â
âLet me get the keys and Iâll write out your invoice.âÂ
The voice that answered him didnât belong to Todd or a man at all. It was angelic, one he hadnât heard in a while.Â
âBirdie told me you were workinâ today.âÂ
Stomach lurching, sweet crawls on the back of his neck, cheeks warm to the touch.Â
Nobody ever in the history of time had given Wayne Munson a nickname that he allowed to be called by. Expect you.Â
He spins slowly. Boot squeaking on the tiled floor. And there you are. Standing by the glass door.Â
The sun is at your back, catching your curves in a golden halo-esque type of glow. A smile dipped with sugar was printed on your lips. Same as every time beforeâ like no time had passed. Looking at him like he put the stars in orbit, and named them after you.Â
Time may have passed but the dormant butterflies in his belly emerged from a bear-like hibernationâ fluttering wildly for you.Â
When he finally speaks your name itâs with a trained calm, the locked box on his heart rattles with hope, the key held in the palm of your hand.

What about Phantom and Mountian kissing as encouragement đ
They say pacing is a good way to clear your head, at least Phantom was pretty sure he heard someone say it once. That someone was starting to feel like a real big fucking liar though. He had been pacing the length of the dressing room for an hour, maybe two, and his head was still horribly loud. Bees swarming in his skull, stinging his brain, he was this close to giving himself a little zap of quintessence to enter into a short coma to escape it.
Sound check had been nothing short of nightmarish on his end. Too many notes played sharp and riffs fumbled to be excused. Papa had even shot him a look - not exactly what you'd call a dirty look but one that still knotted up his stomach. Rain had even fixed him with something akin to a scowl, or maybe the sun was in his eyes.
Phantom just couldn't get off that stage fast enough, and the dread of being forced back onto it in a matter of hours nearly made him sick.
In an effort to maintain his grip on sanity, he'd started pacing and pacing got him nowhere. Phantom wanted to curl in on himself instead. The old leather couch in the corner was the perfect place in his opinion. The well loved cushion was easy to sink into, some sort of embrace to mend his frayed nerves. It almost barely helped.
Knees drawn up to his chest, arms folded, face hidden in them, he felt small. Fragile. Dead weight.
"Bug?"
Phantom's fingers dug into his biceps and he sniffled, blinking away tears he did not care to admit to. The best response he could manage was a weak hum, tuneless and a little unsteadier than he'd like.
"You're not dressed yet," Mountain was frowning. His voice always got a little softer when he frowned. "Whats going on?"
He shrugged. Lying, he knew exactly what the issue was and so did Mountain.
The couch dipped beside him and a large hand settled on his back. Slow circular motions between his shoulder blades that had Phantom unraveling. It shouldn't have been so easy but Mountain made everything seem so simple.
"Rough day, huh sprout?"
"Yeah..." he croaked sadly and lifted his head enough to rest his chin on his arms. "Do I have to do this?"
"Well, technically no but we're gonna sound like shit without you."
"Probably have a better chance without me tripping around up there."
Mountain shifted in his peripheral before slipping an arm around him, pulling the little ghoul against his chest without a fight. Phantom wanted to be there anyhow. Closest thing to safety he had in that little room. He wrapped both arms around his middle and clutched at Mountain's vest. Hiding against him tamed the swarm in his head, quieted the worst of the turmoil.
"You need to be more patient with yourself."
"Easier said than done."
"I know, I know. Despite what the gray hairs might lead you to believe I was new to this too once." Phantom snorted and let out a shuddered breath that wracked his delicate frame. "Could tell you a thousand stories about my bad days on tour, and you're gonna collect quite a few of your own but they'll get easier to shrug off."
Phantom held tighter and Mountain embraced him the same. Squished him like it might just squeeze the doubt out of the little quint. It didn't, of course, but it did get a laugh out of him. Weak but genuine.
"Lemme see that pretty face, I wanna make it better."
There was a moment of hesitation to unlatch from the earth ghoul but he did inevitably, rewarded by those familiar warm eyes. Mountain's mouth quirked upwards at the edges and he cupped his face in both hands. All he wanted to do was melt into them, trusting him to keep him upright.
Mountain leaned in and caught his lips before they could quiver with the threat of another little cry again. One little peck, followed by another, and another. Cautiously paced with every kiss, deepening slowly until Phantom was boneless between his hands. This always seemed to go to his head, could damn near restart his brain just by kissing him - and that was the point.
And Mountain gave him one more before breaking away before all he had was a puddle of a ghoul left. Squishing his flushed cheeks, he gave an exaggerated mwah just as he sat back to admire his work. Phantom's eyes were half lidded, fluttering delicately as he registered the absence of Mountainâs mouth against his.
"Give yourself a little grace, you've more than earned it. Some days are just gonna be bad...But I promise to always try to kiss the blues away."
"...Think I'm still feeling a little blue, can you try again?" Phantom asked quietly, tugging at his vest hopefully.
"Only after you get dressed. I'll ward off aaaaaall those sad feelings till we're called to places once you do. Deal?"
"Deal."

Will you stay?
word count: ~1.8k
warnings: angst, hurt/comfort
summary: Old wounds are torn open, but Bae has someone by his side, always.
a/n: I am not back yet, I won't pretend I am. But I can offer this short fic, if anything.
Please let me know if I left a warning or anything out, I will add it in! Reblogs, likes and feedback are greatly appreciated!

Bae didnât know what to feel.
In one moment he was just having a relatively good time, joking around with the others and watching as Minho was once again chasing around Hyunjin for whatever the weasel had said. It wasnât anything out of the ordinary for them, the group loud and energetic even when they werenât in front of the cameras. And he truly enjoyed that, even if he was the black sheep amongst them, with how quiet he usually was.
But then the next thing he knew, his sight grew slightly blurry, the softest of tremors running through his hands. He was holding his phone, feeling it vibrate in his pocket. So naturally, he fished it out of there, not wanting to miss out on anything possibly important.
The first row of the message in itself was enough to make his breath stop, even though it was only a few words that popped up in the notification.
Glancing around, he saw that everyone else was busy, nobody paying him any mind, thankfully. Bae was also glad that heâd decided to sit alone this time, not squished between two of his bandmates on the sofa. He loved them, he truly did, but because of their closely-knit friendship he knew that they would immediately notice if anything was off with him.
Thus, he unlocked his phone and opened the message with a simple flick of his thumb, eyes quickly reading over the several, long rows of words. With each sentence a weight was added onto Baeâs shoulders, his chest constricting painfully.
Why would he get this? And why now?
It had been long months since he had heard from the person who had sent him this message, someone who Bae had called a good friend of his in the past. The two had hit it off back when they had been trainees, finding solace in sharing their hardships and helping the other grow their skills. Friendly chatter had flowed easily between them whenever theyâd met, so much so that Chan and the others constantly teased them of being long lost soulmates, even if only platonically.
And Bae would have agreed back then.
But suddenly, that connection started suffering, becoming strained between the two. It was inevitable to a certain extent, since his friend had failed to stay by Baeâs side, leaving the company and chasing after another dream. Still, they kept in touch, telling stories to each other over text or at a rare cafĂ© visit. And while there had been a slight rift forming between the two friends, it was still easy to jump over, something Bae had tried to fix.
It was all useless, in the end.
That rift had merely grown in size, so much so that fixing it felt like throwing down buckets of water into the endless stomach of the abyss. It was greedy, swallowing up everything, no matter what heâd tried. Every text had only gotten a dry response, the conversations dying out quicker and quicker with each attempt.
And after a while, Bae had stopped.
It felt useless, chasing after somebody who didnât even slow down so he could catch up. But Bae came to peace with it. It hurt, yes, seeing those ghost conversations still sit in his phone, but people come and go. Such was the way the world worked. Besides, he had 8 boys now to always have by his side, becoming his second family.
So why?
Why was a goodbye letter blinking up at him from his screen, completely unprompted and talking as if he was the one whoâd left his friend?
Why?
The air felt heavy in his lungs, each intake a little harder to perform. His hand had automatically shut the device off it held, knowing that if he hadnât placed it down, he would look even more obvious to the others. It was hard as it is to hide the tremors running through his body, memories heâd buried long ago resurfacing and tearing open old wounds. Those things happened long ago, each and every single one something he had tried his best to forget and never relive. It had already taken him so much effort to reach where he was these days, to not question every little thing, to believe in others and their words.
Yet everything felt like it was crumbling down, years worth of effort just turning into dust, mocking him to rebuild it all again.
He wasnât sure he had it in himself to do so.
By the time heâd snapped back to reality, Felix was by his side, concern clearly written on the young boyâs face. Bae didnât hesitate to plaster on a smile, hoping he would buy the fakeness of it.
âIâm fine Felix, donât worry. Guess âm just a little tired from todayâs practice.â - he muttered out, flashing a smile at the boyâs direction before standing up, excusing himself.
He couldnât bear to be there anymore.
Not when those loathed voices were coming back, making him question if they would eventually leave him too, just like everyone else had done so in the past. Would they find him boring after a while, once his cold facade broke away, his loving yet scared self finally revealed to them?
He didnât want to think about it.
The door closed with a soft click behind him, the lock shifting in place to ensure his solitude. A deep sigh left his chest as he leaned against the door, too exhausted to try and keep those loathsome thoughts at bay anymore. He didnât have the energy for it, not when his limbs ached and joints screamed, not when his mind was already filled with worries about their next project and comeback.
This one thing was the last drop to break him, his body shaking as tears rolled down his cheeks, staining his clothes and skin. He was usually strong, always there to provide comfort for the others, but tonight, it felt impossible. As if a weight was crushing his whole existence, not allowing him to continue on his path, binding him in place like a chain secured to the depths of the ocean.
All he could do now was to sit there, face buried in his knees, hands tightly wrapped around his shaking form. A hiccup escaped through his lips, loud in the silence of his room. He tried his best to not let any sound escape him, to ride these emotions out alone, not wishing to disturb anyone, but it was useless. He could only pray that no one had heard him, that none of the boys chased after him.
His prayers were left unheard as a soft knock echoed through the space, the vibrations running down Baeâs back. He stilled, unable to even breathe from the shock, only hearing the shifting of clothes besides the loud drumming of his heart.
A few beats of silence passed before a sigh could be heard, yet there was no frustration behind it.
âDal, baby, I know youâre in there. I can hear you. Please let me in, it hurts to know youâre hurting.â - pleaded Chan, voice so soft Bae couldnât believe the man was talking to him.
No reply could be heard as Baeâs silent tears continued, shocking him when a loud thump could be felt from behind, the door gently rattling in place once.
âYou donât need to tell me what happened, or whatâs wrong, just⊠know that Iâm here, yeah? Iâm always here if you need me, always have been. Or so Iâd like to believe.â - Chan chuckled, his voice turning into a hushed whisper near the end.
Bae slowly wiped at his eyes, a soft sniffle letting Chan know the boy was still awake and listening.
âYou know, Iâve always admired you. Even when we were just young trainees, hardly knowing each other. If someone had a hard day you tried your best to put your differences aside and lended them a shoulder. Even me, no matter how hard I was on you in our training.â - a soft sigh could be heard, one filled with mirth and memories.
Bae remembered those days clearly, being one of the first ones to join the group. He was standoffish and cold, often getting into arguments thanks to that. But at the end of the day, Chan always stuck to him, adamantly chipping away at the walls he had built up.
âI know you might not believe me, especially with how stubborn you are, but we care about you. We all do, me included. Your pain is our pain. And knowing that youâre on the other side of this door, suffering, it pains me. Please, Moonlight, let me in. I canât bear to hear you cry any longerâŠâ - the elderâs voice cracked at the end, filled to the brim with emotion and hurt.
Clothes shifted and the lock clicked, their leader not hesitating to tear the door open and scoop Bae into his arms. The younger clung to him desperately, hands looped around Chanâs neck, face buried in his chest. The waterworks never really stopped, silently flowing even while the older had been speaking.
The door slowly clicked shut, the two now laid on the soft sea of blankets and pillows.
For a while, Bae just laid there in Chanâs embrace, hiding away from the entire world in his hyungâs steady hold and gentle touches that nearly lulled him to sleep with each stroke over his hair and skin. But he couldnât sleep, not yet, not when doubts continued plaquing his mind constantly, feeding his fears until they grew impossibly large.
A question left his lips, so quiet that not even Chan could make sense of it.
âWhat was it, baby? Could you repeat that for me?â - he asked, gently drawing Baeâs face away from his neck to look at him.
âYou⊠you wonât leave me, right?â
Nothing could have prepared Chan for that question, his eyes widening in pure shock and disbelief.
It only took a second longer for his own eyes to water, those warm nebulas looking at Bae with such emotion that it nearly broke the boy.
âOf course not. Iâm here to stay, now and forever.â
The two fell asleep in each othersâ hold, Chan curled up around Bae as if he was trying to shield the boy from the entire world itself. And for once, Bae let himself be held, desperately clinging onto the other, as if he would disappear in the blink of an eye without any prior notice.

Part of My World
Pairing: Gojo Satoru X MAB!Reader
Word Count: 2,704
Warnings, Ropes, public play, gags, arranged marriage, bottom!gojo, public vehicle sex?? (Is it vehicle sex or carriage sex??)
A/N: I received this request from @princeasimdiya12 for a Gojo x MAB!Reader. I had so much fun thinking of ideas of what to do, and the story just took off on its own! Please enjoy!
The scorching sun burned your skin as you went through the palace. Your parents had informed you that your future husband was waiting for you near the fountain in the gardens. To say you were not excited at all was an understatement. Gojo Satoru was notorious for being annoying.
He always made a commotion at every event he attended. Teasing other princes and princesses, insulting the elders (regardless if they deserved it), and relishing that he was the most eligible prince. Little did you both know he wasn't as eligible as he thought. Just last month, the Gojo and Y/L/N families officially announced that you were to be married.
Gojo, of course, threw a fuss the last time you had seen him. Arguing that he didn't want to move to your desert kingdom, that he would much rather you stay in his coastal kingdom. The tantrum was so terrible both your parents agreed it would be best for the two of you to tour each other's kingdoms.
Of course, he wanted to start with yours.
You could see where he was coming from. Your kingdom was hot, surrounded by sand, and there wasn't much to do. But your people made the desert kingdom an oasis. The streets were always bustling with vendors and life. It, indeed, was a magical place to live.
âFinally!â A vein twitches in your forehead as you turn to spot your future husband sitting on the edge of the large fountain in the center of the courtyard. âDo you know how long I've been waiting? It's hot out here.â
A breath caught in your throat as Gojo stood up. He was wearing the robes of your people. Tunic sleeves are short and light blue. His pants were slightly baggy, hanging on his hips. Fuck why did he look so hot? The image of him had your cock throbbing inside your pants as you quickly turned away.
âGo down, go down.â You commanded your cock. âFuckinâ.â
âHey!â Bright blue eyes popped into your view, causing you to jump. âWhat's your problem?â
âN-Nothing! Nothing!â Clearing your throat, you tried to look anywhere but his body. âWhere did you get the clothes?â
Gojo smirked, stepping around you like a shark would circle their prey. âOh, please, since our engagement was announced, Iâve done my research. I know everything about you, Prince Y/N, and your kingdom.â You seriously doubted that, but as he spoke, he lifted the top of his robes, causing you to suck in a breath.
The robes that Gojo wore were those a bride or groom would wear. Underneath that, his body was tied with silk ropes, squishing his pectoral muscles together and twisting around his torso in intricate designs of hearts. Your Y/E/C eyes trailed further down his body, admiring how the dark blue silk stood out against his ivory skin and how tiny his waist looked. Fuck, how had you never noticed Gojoâs figure before?
Your eyes lingered on his v-line; a well-trimmed happy trail led further. This was unbelievable; what was he doing? What was he thinking?! Wearing robes and ropes like these was something to do on the wedding night. Not your first day showing him around the kingdom. You were about to turn your head to look the other way when Gojoâs hand moved. You followed it, watching with wide eyes as he tugged his pants down, just a bit revealing the base of his semi-hard cock, which was also wrapped in the intricate ropes.
âW-What are youâ?â
âY/N, I donât like beating around the bush. If we're going to be together, I want to make sure my needs will be satisfied, along with yours.â He gently tugged at the two strings hanging off the side of his hip. When he did, the ropes around his body tightened, causing both of you to moan. âDonât take this the wrong way, but Iâm not about to buy a carriage without a test drive.â Oh yeah, no, this was fucking crazy. âWhat, cat got your tongue?â Satoru sneered, tugging the string again, making an almost pathetic whine resonate in his throat.
If you donât do something soon, you will lose your mind. It was hard enough seeing his body like this, but hearing him talk, those dirty words and the teasing tone. You wouldnât be able to take him on the stupid tour of the kingdom if he kept up this act. If anything, it would end with you dragging him to your chambers. There was always time for that later. Right now, it would help if you did something about his mouth.
âAwe, I left you speechless.â
Your arm snapped out, grabbing the strings from Satoru and giving them a hard tug. âSpeechless, no.â Whimpers slipped from Satoruâs mouth as you tugged the strings harder. âI was just thinking you talk too much.â Your other hand squeezes his face, his lips turning into a pout under your fingers and thumb. âPlus, you forgot one essential part, your veil.â
(~)(~)(~)(~)(~)
The tour of the kingdom was going smoothly. You had begun at the palace, showing your future husband around the many rooms, the gardens, and the courtyard before you both made your way into town by carriage. The ride was enjoyable, but it was even more fun the second you stepped out. You and Satoru walked around, bowing at the villagers as you passed, making small talk with vendors, just enjoying another warm and sunny day amongst your people with your future husband by your side.
Gojo kept his eyes focused forward, not paying attention to much of what was going on. No one was wise enough to pick up on what was going on. But the two of you, you knew what he was hiding underneath the pretty robes. A secret that was making you harder and harder with every passing second. From the muffled whimpers and twitches from Gojo, you had a distinct feeling that he was enjoying himself just as much.
âOh, Prince Y/N, Prince Gojo, it is truly a pleasure!â A young vendor boasted as you looked over the wines in their booth. âIs there anything you were looking to purchase?â
âHmm, Iâm not sure; what do you think, darling?â Gojo shot an annoyed glance in your direction.
âYes, Prince Gojo, is there anything you want to partake of? Please, anything is on the house for you, our future king!â
Blue eyes glanced around, roaming over the inventory. As they did, you tugged on the strings near his hip, causing the ropes to tighten. Gojoâs eyes went wide as a muffled moan sounded from his throat. Your future husband hunched over slightly in an attempt to conceal the growing tent in his robes. Ever since the veil had been put on his face, the same veil that hides the silk cloth gag in his mouth, you had made it your life's sole purpose to tease him.
The young vendor gave him a puzzled look as you loosened your grip on the strings. âMy prince, are you alright?â Satoru had just straightened, gaining some form of self-restraint, and before he could nod or gesture in any way, you tugged the strings again, harder this time. The sudden action had Gojo nearly falling over. âPrince Gojo?!â The vendor's worried tone drew the attention of a few bystanders.
âOh no, are you alright?â To anyone else, you were the concerned fiance. To Gojo, you were the main culprit behind his throbbing erection. âI think the desert heat is getting to my precious flower.â Your tone was full of faux concern. âI should get him home, but I will have my guards pack whatever you recommend. I will also pay you double for the goods.â
âOh, you're so generous! Thank you!!â
You grinned, waving to the people and vendors as you helped Gojo back into the carriage. The moment the door shut, you snickered into your palm. Winning a glare from your betrothed. He was not in the slightest amused with your enjoyment of this.
âYwâll pwy fh ehwy.â His barely inaudible muffled whines slipped through the gag. âAthwle!â
Either he told you that you would pay for this, or it was some form of gibberish you couldn't understand. âOh, I'm sorry, I don't know what you're saying.â More muffled whines and moans filled the carriage.
He was most likely getting annoyed with the torturous teasing you were putting him through. In all actuality, he brought this on himself. Gojo was the one to show up in those robes. He was the one who revealed the intricate ropes decorating his beautiful body. You did what any other person would do. Claim what was yours.
âPwhse.â
âHuh?â You heard that request this time. His hands toyed with the strings dangling from his hip. âPlease?â Gojo responded with a wine and a nod, white hair in his eyes. âPlease, what?â
He scooted closer to you, dropping the strings into the palm of your hand. He was putting so much trust in you. Someone he barely knew. Yet he was still willing to give you the power to not only please him but to please yourself as well. As your fingers curled around the ropes, you realized that this match might not be as bad as you both thought it would be.
âFine, since you said please so nicely.â you tugged the strings as hard as possible. The sharp, stinging sensation resonated from almost every inch of Gojo's skin, a pained pleasure. That had him rocking his head back as the carriage began moving. His hips were thrusting against nothing as he whined. âMy gods, you're not so against my kingdom now, are you?â
Slowly, you pulled the veil off, revealing the drooling, messy mouth of your betrothed. âPwse! Pwsease!â The weeping noises had you smirking as you tugged the string harder.
âYou're so fucking beautiful like this.â You slid your hand into his pants, stroking his cock slowly. âDressed in the robes of my people, only to be dressed for your husband underneath them.â his cock throbbed at your words, the tip dribbling precum out of the head. âYou like that, like hiding your dirty secret under these clothes, a secret only I get to revel in.â
âFwk mw!â Satoru cried out, making you cease your strokes over his cock. You couldn't be sure if he said what you believed he said. Noticing the confusion in your eyes, Satoru huffed a loud scoff, drawing your attention to his gagged mouth. âFwk mw,â he repeated, emphasizing the words as best as he could while gagging.
âFuck you?â
You needed to clarify that this was what he wanted. When he nodded, you felt like your heart was about to explode. He wanted to be with you, and gods be damned, toy wanted it too. But there were steps you needed to do, prep, that required you to be with each other. Seeing the hesitation on your face, Satoru sighed before shimming his way out of his pants and briefs.
You sat back, swallowing hard at your dry throat as he turned, revealing his hole, stretched and lubricated, ready for you. It seems as though your fiance truly had done his research. Without hesitation, you all but tackled Satoru to the floor of the carriage, kissing his neck and running the tip of your tongue over the ropes and his skin. Fuck he tasted so sweet; you needed him.
He pulled your robes down, your cock bouncing âSatoru.â You groaned out before spitting into your hand, lubing up your cock. âFuck I want you.â In response, he wrapped his arms around your neck, pulling you down on top of him as his legs snaked around your waist. âI-Iâll take that as a yes!â
âYws!â He sounded but nodded to make sure his consent was concise.
Holy shit, this was happening, all of the teasing, the bickering, the attitude. It had led to this. You never assumed that your betrothal to Gojo would lead to such an erotic moment in your life. This was definitely how you imagined your first day with your fiancé turning out. Yet here you were, on top of your future husband, your cock pressing against his tight hole.
You were so lost in your thoughts that Gojo huffed out a whine before pushing you inside. You winced as the head of your cock slipped inside of him. The tight warm heat nearly hard you cumming as he clenched down on you. He felt so good; gods, you needed more; you required all of his body, mind, and soul!
âAre you alright?â Your lips hovered over the gag. Satoru took a second, white brows pinched together as he adjusted to your size. A moment passed before he hummed, nodding his head again. âGood~ now be quiet. We don't want the guards to hear us.â
You slowly began thrusting in and out of Gojo with whimpers and whines. Gripping his hips as you set a pace. It was slow and steady, the carriage gently rocking in time with your movements. Thank fuck. Gojo was still wearing a gag because he was loud with it in. You couldn't imagine how he would sound if he werenât wearing the gag.
His whines were like your own personal drug. The more he whined and whimpered against the ropes, the harder you found yourself thrusting into him. Desperation ruled your mind and your cock. You wanted to make him cry, wanted to see his eyes roll back into his head. Gojo Satoru was your fiance, your husband, and you were his in every shape and form.
Pushing his cock in as deep as you could, you hit that particular spot inside of him. One you had read about in books or heard people talking about in passing. Gojo whimpered, eyes wide as he arched his back, his legs tightened around you, urging you to stay where you were, to have you keep hitting that special spot. Taking his not-so-subtle hint, you pulled out just a bit before slamming your hips into that special spot, rocking into it over and over until tears began to well in those big, beautiful blue eyes.
âMwphh!â Satoru cried out, those big tears rolling over flushed cheeks.
More? He wanted even more? He must be close. âAnything for you.â Your large hand wrapped around his shaft, jerking him off in time with your bullying thrusts that kept hitting that spot deep inside of him.
âNgggh! MMM!â Satoruâs body stiffened, back arching as he clamped down on you so hard you felt your balls clench. Satoruâs cock throbbed in your hard as he came, spurts of white cum hitting his chest, your hand, hell, it even hit his chin. The pure glazed-over look in his eyes had you thrusting several more times before his clenching became too much.
âFuck,â you whispered, yanking the gag out of his mouth, âIâm cumming, fuck, fuck fuck.â You pressed your lips against his drool-covered mouth, silencing your moans as your cock throbbed inside him. You filled him with your cum, pushing it deep inside of him until you both laid them, twitching in overstimulation. âSatoru.â
âMhmm.â He hummed happily, pulling you down so you were lying flush against his cum coated chest. âThat settles it.â
Pulling back just an inch, you watched him. âSettles what?â A chuckle rumbled deep in your chest as you shook your head. âDid I somehow fuck the brains out of you?â
âYou sure did, Prince Y/N,â His long fingers slowly ran through your Y/H/C hair. Finger twisting around the strands. âI gave you a test ride.â A bark of a laugh escaped you as you helped Gojo sit up. âI want to sign my agreement to be yours and yours alone.â
âOnly if you let me do the same.â You shared a kiss with the man you were arranged to marry. An arrangement that you had come to love.

IN a week - what Iâve never seen in a Steve 80âs pop star AU!!! his hair? joes actual voice? THE FACE? Heâs always giving pop star to me
Yessss thanks sm for requesting honey!
join the party
popstar!Steve x fem!reader ⥠705 words
âOh wow.â You swipe a magazine from the rack by the checkout. âThe sexual exploits of heartthrob Steve Harringon? Inside source tells all?â You raise an eyebrow at your boyfriend. âStevie, is there anything youâd like to tell me? Has Robin sold you out?âÂ
âShe would,â Steve allows, not even looking at the magazine as he sets your groceries on the conveyor belt. Nancy has told him a million times to not risk being out in public like this, but he says he misses the mundanity of it. I just want to go to the mall and shit like that with my girlfriend, that shouldnât be a big ask. So theyâd compromised; Steve sacrifices the volume of his hair every time he goes out by squishing it under a baseball cap, and Nancy gets the peace of mind knowing that thereâs no chance of her most big-time client being recognized while his hair (practically trademarked, at this point) is covered. âBut she has even more fun with feeding them ridiculous stories. She says my real life is too boring.â He wraps his arm around you, drawing you away from the magazine rack. âMonogamy, you know?â
âSuch a drag,â you agree, gratified when he presses a kiss to the top of your head. âWanna see what she told them?â
Steve makes a noncommittal humming sound, but he leans over to watch as you leaf through to find his page. âOoh, this is a good picture of you, babe.â Steve winks at you from the page, skin glossy and laminate. âOkay, so you slept with every single girl at Hawkins High while you were there, youâŠapparently had a very passionate fling with an heiress on vacation in Bora Bora, and you were found in a closet, completely naked with two girls at a partyâŠin uptown?â You gawp at him, feigning betrayal. âStevie, was that the party last week? When did you slip away?â
He jostles you by the shoulder. âShut up.âÂ
âYouâre so sweet to me. Hey, lookââ you pick up another magazine, reading off the cover, âThe seven-step regiment Steve âThe Hairâ Harrington doesnât want you to know.âÂ
âYouâre joking.â He scrambles to see over your shoulder, and you laugh, showing it to him.
âI am,â you confess, and Steve actually sighs in relief. âIt says five steps.âÂ
âSuckers,â he scoffs. âDonât fuck with me like that, babe, thatâs my income youâre joking about.âÂ
You laugh again, reaching up to take his hand where itâs slung over your shoulder. âDonât sell yourself short,â you say, intertwining your fingers. âItâs only like, ninety percent of your income. Youâve got some talent.âÂ
Steve looks at you, eyebrows rising nearly to the brim of his hat. âOh yeah? Changing our tune from the car this morning, are we?â
You scoff, but he only wrestles you closer, pulling you tight against his side. âI didnât say you were a bad singer, I said you couldnât hit the same notes as Madonna.âÂ
âBut I did,â he says smugly, taking out his wallet as you approach the checkout.Â
âWell, you tried.âÂ
Steve hums disappointedly. âMâgonna have to rethink all these free, private concerts if my audience doesnât appreciate them,â he says.Â
You smother a laugh, pressing a hand to your chest in a show of dismay. âWhat? No, please, Mr. Harrington, you canât do that. Iâm your biggest fan!â
âHarrington?â The cashier, a man not much older than you or Steve, looks up from the groceries. âLike, Steve Harrington?â
Steve tenses, and you feel instantly guilty for your dramatics. âYup,â you say quickly. âIâm a big fan of his.âÂ
The man nods. âMe too. Heard heâs back in town for a bit.âÂ
âYou donât say.âÂ
âYeah, but I mean, we probably wonât be seeing him around much,â he says matter-of-factly, shrugging his shoulders. Steve looks down as subtly as he can, hiding his face under the brim of his cap. âWhen you get that famous, you canât just be going out in public like the rest of us. Poor dude would probably get mobbed.âÂ
âProbably,â you agree, smiling as you squeeze Steveâs hand in your grip. He sneaks his other hand to your waist where the cashier canât see, pinching scoldingly at your side. âWouldnât want that.â

happiest of birthdays to my baby N!! they (and everyone else) have been going through a lot in the main story so i thought i'd write a sweet little short for the occasion. you'll be able to see them in the game again very soon !
â
"you think they're asleep?"
Blane peers over the couch, glancing at the three bodies splayed out on the floor and the fourth on the loveseat. "seems like it. [K] is a light sleeper though, so they might wake up if we talk too loud."
"but i don't want to move," [N] groans.
"we don't have to talk then."
[N] sighs, leaning back against the wall. "they can't be too mad when it's my birthday, can they?"
"well, technically it's not your birthday anymore," Blane points out. they flash one of their rare smiles, eyes crinkling at the edges. "did you have fun?"
[N] thinks about it. the celebration at work, the party that continued when they got back to their apartment to find K and Rylan there. the decorations that they'll keep up for at least a month. the party hat on Radar's head. the cake that [K] said was 'easy' to make, only to get exposed by Rylan saying they made three testers before they deemed it perfect. the text Blane sent at exactly midnight.
friday the 13th is usually an auspicious day, but not today. today is [N]'s birthday. and they're surrounded by their favourite people in the world. they'd nearly forgotten birthdays come with gifts they were so excited. [A] squished their cheeks and called them cute because of it. they're sure Rylan would've followed if [K] had not smacked them on the back of the head.
"more than fun," [N] says.
"good." a pause. thenâ "you know this isn't a one-time thing, right? we're not going to throw you a party once and then never again. i'll always be here for you and i know everyone else will be too."
[N] smiles. "yeah, i know. i'm jusâ"
"can you two continue this conversation somewhere else? i know it's your birthday, Alves, but this is getting a little too sappy," K drawls.
Blane throws a pillow in their direction. "shut up. you're the sappiest of all of us."
"i think [A] takes that." K yawns, getting up. "can i take your guest bedroom, [N]? i'm too tired to drive back. i can help clean up in the morning."
[N] waves a hand. "go ahead. i don't mind."
"alright." K shuffles down through the living room, stopping at the entrance to the hall. "happy birthday again. i'm glad you liked the cake. i didn't mind baking so many, just so you know."
"sap," Blane taunts.
K rolls their eyes and disappears from view. [N] thinks Blane says something but they don't catch it, too busy thinking about their night. best birthday ever.

Promise Me
Giyu x Reader
Warning: this story contains angst
A/N: I said I was writing a Giyu angstâŠso here it is. I put the idea aside to finish my Kishibe fic and well⊠I wrote this in under an hour, Iâm very tired and it isnât proof read lol so if itâs shit⊠donât tell me <3
Word Count: 2k
Sat on top of a grassy hill, light just barely filtering through to the ground, warm air cradling you in its embrace. You felt normal, for once in your life, you could finally rest without worry. âStrange⊠isn't it?â It was a quiet comment, as if your voice would shatter the illusionâŠeven though it wasnât an illusion to begin with. âVery much.â His voice was just as warm as the air surrounding you, so different than the one you were used to.
There was no reason for him to hide his emotions behind a sheet of thick ice, ice not even the toughest of picks had been able to break through. Mostly because they were never meant to, that ice was the kind only the sun itself could melt away. That was exactly what it did, removing every inch of the barrier he had built up over the first twenty one years of his life. âIt almost feels like Iâm dreaming.â
You watched the field below you, long grass swaying in the breeze. It looked inviting, like you could run through it for miles and never get tired. âYeah⊠almost as if itâs too good to be true.â Giyu smiled softly, head tilting back to admire the brilliant hues of the setting sun. Painting the sky in an array of pinks and golds. Night was slowly creeping up on the two of you, yet it held no dread.
You no longer feared the setting sun, you welcomed the moonâs gentle embrace. There was nothing lurking within the shadows any longer, youâd forever be free from their grasp. âMe too, if this is a dream I hope it never ends.â You laughed softly, head tilting to admire the man beside you. Battered and bruised with so much left behind, so much that would never come back, you both emerged from the other side victorious.
âThis just may be the longest dream Iâve ever experienced.â Your heart skipped, ever so slightly, as a smile crept up his face again. You werenât used to it, you werenât used to the warmth it radiated nor the brilliance it held when he smiled without restraint. The way his nose would scrunch softly, the way the corner of his eyes would crinkle. It only took an hour before you found yourself addicted to the look of it. âI rather like it here.â His gaze moved to meet yours.
For a moment, it felt as if time had stopped, as if the world stopped spinning on its axis for just that brief second. You couldnât quite get over the man beside you, the man you now called your own. âMe too.â A gentle whisper, just as gentle as the breeze that carried it away from you. Everything about your life within the last two months was nothing short of new. A new beginning of sorts.
With that new beginning came new experiences. Youâd never known a love like the one you shared now. It was delicate and young, you both had quite a lot to bear, to figure out. But this? It came naturally, no longer any barriers to keep you apart. There was no longer a reason to deny what was clearly there. Every day was a new opportunity, a new day to discover more about the other. Now, you couldnât imagine your life without him.
You broke your gaze from his, a smile still present on your lips as you scooted closer to him, head coming to rest on his shoulder. âWe should travel more, find every beautiful place we can.â Your fingers tangled in his, squeezing gently. âIâd like that. There is a whole world out there waiting for us. Now that we have the time to actually explore it.â His cheek pressed to the top of your head, eyes locked on the way your fingers intertwined with his.
âWe could go anywhere we want. Take a boat across the ocean and discover what lies beyond it. Then, when weâre satisfied, once weâve seen everything we could ever imagine, we return here.â You smiled, cheek squished to his shoulder. âWeâd always have a home, so long as weâre together.â He teased softly, yet there was a weight to his words. âTell me, GiyuâŠâ you started softly, not wanting to pull away from him.
Yet you ached to see his face when you asked this question. âYes? What is it?â His grip on your fingers tightened slightly, as if one gust of wind would pull you from him. âAre we going to spend the rest of our lives together? Just me and you?â You expected some sort of hesitation, some sort of silence that told you he was thinking about his answer. Instead, he replied without a second of hesitation. âIf youâll let me, I donât ever intend on leaving your side.â
You pulled away, head lifting from his shoulder to look at him. âIâd never ask you to leave.â It was raw, maybe more serious than you intended for it to come out. Perhaps you only realized that because of the look in his eyes, blue eyes that held such surprise, such love. For a moment you found it hard to keep that gaze, as if the weight of his adoration would suffocate you if you tried to bear it all at once. âGood. Because youâd have a hell of a time keeping me away.â
A smile broke onto your face, one as brilliant as the setting sun behind you. One that made him pause for a moment, engraving each and every centimeter of your face into his memory. He never wanted to stop seeing the smile, he wanted to continue to be the reason you smiled in such a way. It was more intimate than any act of physical love in his book. A smile that was meant for him and him alone.
âI love you.â Slipped past his lips before he could pull it back, three words having a mind of their own as they tumbled helplessly out for you to hear. But maybe it was the words you uttered back that held more gravity, six words that pulled his heart in a million directions before snapping back into a whole. The kind of response he could only dream of getting, the response he didnât quite feel he was deserving of. But that was something to be worked on.
âI know⊠I love you, too.â
Youâd been aching to say it, quickly losing track of the amount of times where you nearly did. These were things that couldnât be rushed. Now, you had all the time in the world to feel things out, cherish each moment and do things when the time felt right and not because the chance could get pulled out from under you. Now, though, saying âI love youâ now has never felt more right.
You shared a kiss, not your first, but one to remember. Youâd engraved every bit of it to your memory. The way his lips felt against your own, soft and warm. The way he tasted, sweet like the honey from the pastry you had shared. The warmth between your bodies, the comfort of the other's presence. The sun fading to your backs, the sky lighting up with one last display of its brilliance before entering its slumber. Every moment of it was something to remember, hold on to and cherish.
Four years have passed since that day. Now, you sat on that very hill again. This time, you were alone. There was no longer a warmth cradling you in its embrace. The grass had long since died, the sky no longer held the brilliance it once did. It was cold, colder than sitting in the snow in the middle of winter with no layers.
Loneliness had never felt so crushing. As if the weight of it would drag you straight through the dirt below you and swallow you whole. Part of you wished it would. âYou said Iâd have one hell of a time keeping you away.â You laughed without any humor behind it, drawing your knees to your chest, the bark of the tree digging into your back. âYouâre such a liar.â
You looked down, the stone was etched beautifully in perfect writing. His name front and center along with his dates. For some reason, it sent bubbling anger straight to your gut. Not anger at him, no you could never hold anything against him. It was physically impossible for you to ever feel badly towards him. No, this anger was directed at everything out of your control.
Just before his twenty-fifth birthday, heâd fallen ill. The kind of ill that you knew deep down you couldnât come back from, the kind of sickness that pulled life out of you day by dayâŠhour by hour. The kind of sickness that you could do nothing to treat, only try your hardest to make it comfortable. You had spent each and every day by his side, every waking moment holding his hand.
Remembering your travels, laughing about the adventures the two of you had shared. Youâd meant every word that you said that day, youâd wanted to see the world. And Giyu did everything in his power to give that to you. Youâd traveled to every beautiful place imaginable, even sailed across the ocean to discover the very lands youâd only ever dreamed of. Heâd given you the entire world.
âI love you.â Just as gently as you had that day. Just as gently as you had whispered while he took his final breath. Just as gently as you spoke it every day you sat beside him on this hill. Your hand ached for the weight of his, fingers crying for the warmth of his tangled in your own. Crying to forget the coldness they had felt once he was gone, the warmth youâd never get back.
Thinking back on that day, you wish you had stared at him just a little longer, memorized the shade of blue that filled his irises. You wished youâd memorized the tone of his voice, the way his hair felt against your fingers, the soft blush of his skin. Even if you were granted all the time the world had to offer you, it would never be enough. There was no amount of time that would allow you to memorize him.
It was almost laughable, that three months without him felt longer than the four years youâd spent with him. Eventually youâd come to face the reality of your anger, that it wasnât anger at all. The feelings you harbored were love, love in its purest form. In the end, thatâs what grief really was. Love that youâd never be able to put forth, the kind that would forever hang on your shoulders and weigh you down. Always reminding you that it had nowhere to go.
âYouâll wait for me, wonât you? I promise I wonât be much longer.â Your eyes closed, inhaling the cool air through your nose. âItâs only a matter of time, itâll catch up to me. My twenty-fifth is only a few months away. Youâll wait for me, right?â Your chest felt empty with each breath you took, nothing but an ache reminded you that you were still alive. It was infuriating to you, yet you couldnât decipher why. Your mind is far too jumbled but unbearably silent at the same time.
âWe can travel the world again. Iâm not sure what lies beyond this, but Iâm sure itâs far prettier than anything we ever saw. Maybe we can get married this time, when weâll really have all the time in the world. We can enjoy each other with no time limit, for real this time. Giyu, promise me youâll wait.â You knew no one was listening but that would never stop you from talking. When your death caught up to you, youâd die alone. But that didnât scare you.
Not in the slightest. Because you knew heâd be there waiting, just as patiently as you had pleaded with him each time you sat beside his grave. Just as you had asked him, just as he promised you before his eyes shut, never to open again. Death was a warm hug, just as warm as the breeze had been that day. Just as warm as his hand had been intertwined with your own.

Traitor | J.M.
Pairing: no outbreak!Joel Miller x reader!
Summary: This was a request I had received by @livingdeadmaria awhile ago and I finally got out of my funk to write! Itâs based on the song Traitor by Olivia Rodrigo.
Word count: 1.3K || Warnings: angst. Angst and drinking and more angst. || notif blog for updates ||
You cleared your voice and took a deep breath, preparing for whatever was about to fall out of your mouth while the phone rang on the other end. Two rings and it went to voicemail but that didnât surprise you. âHeyâŠI um⊠I know itâs late but I had to get some stuff off my chest. You always said I could call..if I needed you.â You sat in silence for a few seconds before you fiddled with your finger against your leg, questioning if you should even say anything. âD-do you remember how you used to read me sections of your book so Iâd fall asleep faster because you said something about how sleep is important and I need it for my brain to stay sharp? Not sleeping so great these days to be honest with you..I remember youâd call me sweet pea and tell me to get comfy, itâs a long chapter. So Iâd tuck myself next to you and youâd read for hours, even after I was asleep.â Your voice faded on the last bit of the sentence, your hand that was tucked into your coat pocket twirling a loose thread.
âI tried one of those audio books of some story to help me sleep but it didnât work, she didnât give the story enough of a monotone like you did. So then I tried music to help me fall asleep. I found out I love piano covers of songs. Thereâs one song though that could never be covered and that would be the one you showed me-â your voice cracked a little, the sting hitting your throat. âAnd I Love You So by Perry Como. Thatâs a good one to sleep toâŠhas a lot of memories tied to it.â
The wind nipped at the tip of your nose and you sighed lightly, the puff of air disappearing in front of you. He showed you that song on the old radio he had tucked away in a shelf in his living room after you looked over his music collection he built over the years. He grabbed your hands and begged you to dance with him just until the song was over. As the short memory faded back into your mind and you were in the present, you stood up from the bench and finally walked inside your home. Taking off your coat and boots while your phone still squished against your cheek, you sniffled slightly.
âI heard that song today for the first time in a few weeks and it made me think of you. Took it as a sign to reach out. But thenâŠI uh-â Hesitation overcame your voice before you continued.
âI saw you downtown earlier. Finally went to that winter festival thing they put on every year, the one I used to beg you to go with me to. Man, that was like pulling teeth with you, Joel.â It was. He said the lights and all the cheerful faces and overpriced hot chocolate wasnât his thing. Of course you wanted to go anyway and you did go, alone.
âI was going to come up and tell you hi, see how you wereâŠbut then I noticed you with someone. Funny enough she looked like the one person you said youâd never date.â Your breath hitched and you made your way to the fridge to grab that bottle of wine you bought earlier to pour yourself a glass. You chugged down the first one and poured a second one before continuing the one sided conversation. The anger started to build up inside of you once more, completely taking over the good memories you had with him.
âI begged for you to tell me you had feelings for her, Joel. You always swore to me you didnât, that I was paranoid for caring so much. Were you lying to me all those times I asked you anything about her? You didnât even want to hold my hand in front of her towards the end of our relationshipâŠwhy is that? I never said a word about what I actually thought was going on, just so youâd stay. I thought maybe, just maybe, if I played stupid you'd be happy with that and still stick with me. I loved you through everything, including your worst. Remember when you were terrified of me seeing you at your worst and you thought Iâd leave? Never once did I do that, Joel. I stayed through all the bullshit you put me through, tried to help you be the best version of yourself that you could be. I showed you what love was again. You were the one who told me you couldnât fall for someone after Sarahâs mom left and yet I stuck around. For you and for Sarah. You left me during my worst. Was I that shitty of a person to you that you didn't care about my feelings at all and thought the best thing to do would be to leave in the middle of the night after a fight?"
âBaby cmon I told you nothinâ is going on. Sheâs just a friend from years ago, I never had those feelings for her.â Joel followed you into your bedroom as you started to pack your stuff in a duffle bag, cleaning out the drawer he gave you in his dresser. âBaby, stopâŠjust listen to me.â His hands grabbed your wrists and shook the clothes from your clutch, pulling you into his chest. Warm tears fell against his shirt and you broke down finally. All the pent up anger and sadness you had spilled onto the fabric against your cheek while Joelâs hand smoothed over your hair. âYouâre my girl, okay? What can I do to make you trust me that sheâs just a friend?â âTell me youâll never date her if we ever break up. I need to hear you say it.â The idea flopped out of your mouth before thinking it over but it was already out and in his ears. Joel just nodded and gave you a soft smile. âYou have my word, I wonât date her if we break up. Which we wonât.â He kissed the top of your head and hugged you once more, his words still feeling a little empty.
That was a month before he broke up with you.
You downed the rest of the glass of wine and sighed, wiping the tears away from your cheeks. âI wish you wouldâve thought this through before letting me fall in love with you, Joel. I really do. You betrayed me. You told me-â You choked out a sob and swallowed hard, âyou told me you wouldnât date her and you lied to me. How could you do this to me? Joel..we were together for two years and you left me when the going got toughâŠyou ran right to her. Did anything we did matter to you?â With the tears clouding your vision, you squeezed your eyes shut and shook your head. âI hope you feel good about yourself, I really do. While sheâs sleeping in the bed we made, I hope you replay this voicemail in your head and remember everything I said. I wish youâd call me after this to try to apologize for hurting me even more but I know you wonât. Youâll never be sorry for hurting me this bad and I think thatâs what kills me so much. I know how kind you can be but it seems Iâm not lucky enough to get that anymore. Thank you so much for making this heartbreak so much easier to get over. Just know that I always loved you and I wouldâve never hurt you like this, you fucking traitor.â â Joelâs POV
He sighed and looked at the phone screen, the voicemail ending and the screen dimming out. His girlfriend woke up behind him in bed, rolled over and hooked her arm into his, âWhatâre you doing baby?â She asked tiredly but didnât sit up to see his phone. Joel coughed and took a deep sigh before deleting the voicemail from his phone.
âNothinâ sweet pea. Go back to sleep.â

i eat up ur recs with a spoon and have almost gotten to the end of the list!!! do u have any other self insert recs? thank u! u have great taste
MWAH MWAH ILY !! THANK YOU and yes ofc I have more recs (not as many as last time, but it should still be a decent list to sink your teeth into <3)
Take care when reading, and always be sure to check the tags!
Same notation as last time, with STATUS of each fic labelled as such: Finished, Ongoing/Unfinished, Discontinued. (Unless the author specified that the fic is Discontinued or on Indefinite Hiatus, I will mark it as Ongoing/Unfinished. Oneshots are also marked as such.)
Spicy (Explicit) and/or Dark fics have also been labelled if relevant. (I wonât mark ones with just suggestive themes/moments, since I cant guarantee Iâll catch all of them. Similarly, unless there is consistent graphic death or gore I [probably] wonât mark it as dark.)
MULTICHAPTERS
As always, tread carefully while reading and take care of yourselves <3
Edit: Fixed a missing link or two!
These Masks We Wear - Underfell!Papyrus/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
TIME LOOPS BABEY!!!! This reader is a delight from the get go because they have been stuck in a time loop and are... rather impulsive because of it, which lands them in a bit of a mess, because these strange, dangerous monsters have just emerged from the mountain. (I'm screaming and yelling at this fic very intensely)
Resisting the Current - Various/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
If you haven't read this yet please do yourself a favour and read it. The premise was enough to get me irrevocably hooked (anti-harem but the gf is ALSO into you. ALSO SHE'S YOUR EX) and the writing is just FANTASTIC. I'm obsessed with the dialogue and description at every turn. Also, I would very much like to kiss Quinn please and thank you. The plot is beginning to set in now, and it's so good??? I have to cut this short or else I'll talk forever <3
ALSO the same author recently posted the first chapter of Wishbone which has me in a vice grip!!! AHH
Comic Classifieds - Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
*kicks in the door* DID I HEAR... FAKE DATING? Very sweet VERY funny, with an extremely extraordinarily awkward reader. (Who is also "cute in an awkward, baby giraffe kind of way.") It's sooo good please please check it out.
Stolen with Friendship, Captured by Love - Papyrus/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
2016... I still love this fic deeply <3 It's so SWEET and it reminds me of the good days of fic... Papyrus is. a Lot to deal with, but the reader takes it all in stride. He is SO full of energy and I want to sqUISH HIM.
Tough Choices, Tougher Consequences - Underfell!Papyrus/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
I loooooove stories where soldiers get thrust into awful political matters. After you are forcefully removed from the battlefield, the Emperor gifts you his finest gladiator- Papyrus. He intends for the monster to be a toy to you as much as you are a toy to him, but you can't accept that and quickly broker a deal with Papyrus for his freedom.
Already There - Underfell!Sans/Reader - Finished
[Warning: INCREDIBLY SAD AND GOOD]
BURSTS INTO TEARS. Like for real though I adore this fic, it will break you into a hundred million pieces. My beloved son!!!!!!! I can't believe I didn't add this one to my last list it's such an influential piece of my existence like genuinely
There is also a sequel! Which hasn't updated since 2018 BUT STILL IS REALLY GOOD. If you want a slightly less heartbreaking story, the author also has another Sans/Reader; A Tale of Dog and Monster which makes me want to cry but in a happy emotional way instead.
Here's to You, Doll - Mafia!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Ah... this one is very fun. You're a scientist who gets accidentally isekai'd into a Mafiatale universe and becomes stranded there. Unfortunately for you, Don Gaster and his brothers think you are a spy, so you're kinda stuck with them. Also Sans is kinda a little freak in this one at times (/appreciative)
Soul Collector - Various/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
The reader (the Soul Collector) gets transported into another universe and has to stay with their alternate, who is the skeleton's terrible neighbour. You look just like her, of course, resulting in a lot of VERY confusing interactions. I wasn't expecting to, but I actually really like Meyer.
Consequences - Papyrus(?)/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Anti harem, but the reader gets mcfreaking MURDERED (and so does classic Papyrus?!) so now they are both Ghosts. Focus is currently more on platonic relationships and REVENGE but I'm enjoying the twist on the typical anti-harem structure!!
My Soulmate is a Pastel Goth (And Other Concerns) - Underfell!Papyrus/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Edge is very cute in this and I also feel really bad for him, he's trying so hard but the MC will not give him the time of day ;w;!! I looove me a good tumultuous soulmate fic. (Note: this fic also features Fem!Frisk as Sansâ soulmate in the bg, so if youâre not a fan, thatâs something to note ^^! Fr//ans isnât quite my thing, but tbh Iâm really interested in seeing how things turn out here!)
ERROR: Not Found - Error!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Error, gets obsessed with the reader and kidnaps them! It's slice of life, so don't expect TOO much hard hitting angst here, it's more about being woo'd by the strange stalkerish entity who knows everything about you <3
When Death isn't an Option - Horror!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
[Warning: Contains Dark/Heavy Themes]
I'm a sucker for immortal readers, especially ones that get stuck in HORRORTALE of all places. This fic is very fun and plays in the Horrortale sandbox in a fun way- I'm enjoying it a ton so far :]!!!
Additionally... if you liked that or if you're like me and love immortal readers forced to make decisions of extremely dubious morality and sense because of their immortal nature, you should also check out Cadarverous and đđt. which are both very dark and very compelling.
Babysitting with Extra Morbid Steps - Various/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
[Warning: Contains Dark/Heavy Themes]
So the first thing you need to know is: Papyrus is dead.
... WAIT WAIT WAIT HEAR ME OUT- this is a really brilliantly written fic about like. SO much fucked up shit happening. The reader is Sans' friend, who he has hired/tasked with guarding the various alternates he has. just straight up imprisoned(?!?!). I avoided this for a while because of the aforementioned Papyrus Being Dead thing, but HOT DAMN I'm glad I read it in the end. Delightfully horrifying, but it gets sweet I swear!!! I would say read the tags but those are Spoilery ;)!
Additional note; the comments section often has Really Interesting dissections of characters and their motivations, which if you're into that (like me) then you should read those too!
All You Knead is Loaf - Sans/Reader - Finished
[Warning: Contains Explicit Content.]
Super sweet, VERY punny fic that updated over the course of a month iirc. It's a cute food-centric Sans/Reader!
Like a moth to flameâŠor a lamp - Mothman Horror!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
BIG MOTHMAN HORROR!!! He's so sweet and sad this poor man. He has mistaken the reader for his mate and is trying to woo them again...
Those Times I Met His Brother - Sans/Reader - Finished
Essentially you befriend Papyrus and keep getting left with Sans, during which you grow closer. Love Papyrus' not-so-subtle attempts to get them together afjkdfjsf,,
Just Try and Help (Lil Old Hopeless Me) - Various/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Skeleton reader! Very angy skeleton reader. They do not Want to be here (understandably, considering they were essentially kidnapped) but their former caretaker is gone, and they have nowhere to go.
Lovely House of Bones - Various/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Six monsters get stranded in a snowstorm, and you help them not freeze to death by inviting them into the house you inherited. I'm really excited to see where this one goes :D!
Maybe In Time, You'll Want To Be Mine - Underfell!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
More!! Soulmate stuff!!!! SOULMARKS BABEY!! Love it when there are misunderstandings! Love it when there are cuuuuute background character kiddos!! AUGH it's cute! And angsty! But cute!!
No Good Deed - Underfell!Papyrus/Reader - Finished
You volunteer at a local homeless shelter where you meet a strange, less-than-friendly volunteer. Short and sweet!
Nothing but Skin and Bone - Horror!Skelebros/Reader - Finished
[Warning: Contains Dark/Heavy Themes]
MORE Horrortale content! This one only finished last month or so- it goes from angsty to sweet/cute and it's real good!!
If you read that and want EVEN MORE sadness and gore, the author's other work Vivid Blood, Pale Scars (DARK) is very tragic and very fucked up because you get saddled the Horrorfell boys this time. MUCH Hurt and No Comfort!! All the endings hurt me in different ways and none of them are happy. LUCKILY(?) the spinoff/AU where the skelebros and reader from VBPS get pulled into a multiversal skeleton house; Blurred Lines, Opened Wounds has just started!! Surely nothing can go wrong. Surely.
The Princes' Bride - Skelebros/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
What if you got kidnapped by the king to marry his sons. "Why" is a good question. And an even MORE pressing question is: how do you get OUTTA here. (Papyrus is a sweetie, Sans is distrusting, and King Gaster is a mysterious weirdo who is a good dad and bad everything else.)
MorTificaTion - Bad Sanses/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Reader from Outertale gets yanked into Horrortale! They then have to masquerade as Sans' wife and Aliza's mother, all the while trying to just stay alive. Not to mention the other Sanses running around... really fun premise and I'm excited to see where it all goes >:0!! Also extra kudos to the name of the fic because YAY Murder Time Trio (MTT) mention!
So here's the plan... - Underfell!Papyrus/Reader/Underswap!Papyrus- Finished
[Warning: Contains Explicit Content.]
VERY CUTE!! Love them. Fake dating except there's a third conspirator involved. Each of them was also trying to set the other two up in a couple uwu. Chapter 1 is cute, and chapter 2 is spicy ;)!
Just a Cat - Swapfell!Skelebros/Reader - Finished
The reader is in fact, not just a cat. (He is a shapeshifter, and pretends to be a cat.) Shenanigans ensue.
An Apple a Day Keeps the Asshole Away - Swapfell!Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
Unhinged. When I say unhinged I mean it in the best possible way but it IS unhinged. They're all a bunch of little FREAKS. Please read it, if only to experience the absolute TERROR of Miss Bluebell and also Steve. What the hell (appreciative)
Honey Lemon Tea - ...?/Reader - Discontinued
RAGHHH I'm so sad this was discontinued :(( I loved the set up and the mystery so much... the author did leave an end note with how the plot would have played out though!
Shifting Morals - Sans/Reader - Ongoing/Unfinished
You go stargazing and have an encounter with a mysterious stranger :0c?! (It's Sans. He's a cool beasty guy, and he is very very sadly Entirely alone.)
Additionally, this fic was suddenly revived 5 years after posting the first chapter which I have immense respect for.
The Key To Freedom - Yandere Buttontale!Papyrus/Reader - Finished
Yandere Papyrus! Not a common sight, but this fic does it particularly well. He mostly wants to eat your soul at first, but then he starts getting... attached. The bittersweet ending!!! AUGH.

What if you could summon bitty versions of your soulmates!! And oh stars why are there so many- WHAT DO YOU MEAN MORE KEEP APPEARING??? The reader has a handful of skeletons and more to deal with!
The House on Lane 66 - Various/Reader - Finished
[Warning: Contains Explicit Content.]
I feel like legally I have to include this (/lh /j). I finally finished it recently and went "WOAH..."
I stopped reading for a while (because of the length...) BUT I returned to it because I really really enjoy the world building (like holy SHIT!!!) but oh my god that sure is. a Million words now. It is TECHNICALLY finished, but that's only because the next part is in the works(?!?!?!)

Not a reader insert, but it's like. An AU of a reader insert so I'm including it here!!! Rubble and Ramparts is of course, inspired by R&R (Rabble & Rampallians), which was on my previous list but is getting linked here again for ease of navigation

Cute and sad! Platonic reader insert. The reader is a troubled teen who befriends Frisk, and gets to meet a bunch of skeletal guardians. The skeletons have a familial/friend's cool cousin vibe with the reader, which is really sweet! The fic is currently going through a Halloween Special which I'm enjoying quite a bit (Haunted dolls! Ghosts! Blood!! Still very sad :[...)
Something Good - Fellswap Gold!Papyrus/Reader(?) || /OC(s) - Ongoing/Unfinished

so, have you flirted with everyone in this bar yet?
9-1-1 | eddie diaz x evan buckley
content warnings: hurt no comfort, anger issues
collection: buddie week 2021 (reposted sept. '24)
read on archive of our own
Buck nods, then takes a long sip of his drink. Itâs ice cold and soothes the burn in his stomach, but doesnât stop the icy rage that is still flowing through his bones. He wants to sock Eddie in the face- he wouldnât, ever, in a million years- but he wants to see if Eddie is capable of feeling anything, anymore. Maybe he would hit Buck back, and then again, and again, and again, until all his anger is gone and they can be something other than this ever again. No fists fly. Buck nods, unconvincingly. âThanks.â âIâve got your back,â Eddie mutters. Is it sour in his mouth? Buck feels it in the back of his throat even though he hasnât said those words in as long as he can think. âDonât-,â Buck exclaims. âDonât you dare.â
Itâs the same bar the 118 always goes to when the adults want a night out. Hen and Karen drew the short straw, and are hosting Christopher and Harry for a sleepover with Denny while Eddie, Buck, Ravi, Bobby and Athena throw the worldâs smallest, saddest goodbye party for Eddie.
Buck is starting to think that Hen did not actually draw the short straw, but rather picked it on purpose, because there is no place in the world that Buck would rather be less than at this stupid bar.
Everyone is holding on by a thread. Ravi is practically handing round after round to the lot of them, trying to drive out the awkwardness with tipsiness. Bobby and Athena are pretending to argue good-naturedly over something, attempting to draw Buck and Eddie into their debate with little success.
Eddie is sat in the corner of their booth thatâs in the corner of the bar. His back is to two walls and his eyes are on the door, and still, he holds the tension in his shoulders like itâs welded to his spine.
Heâs had the least to drink out of all of them, still lapping at the same IPA as he ordered when they got here an hour and a half ago.
Buck is sat as far away from Eddie as he can get, squished with Bobby and Athena opposite Eddie. Heâs got one leg hanging off the booth and Athenaâs animated gestures keep jostling him, but itâs better than feeling the heat of Eddieâs thigh against his for what heâs sure would be the last time. As it is, he doesnât remember the last time they sat shoulder-to-shoulder like partners, and he prefers it that way because itâs one less moment he can agonize over to wonder where he went wrong.
Buckâs drinking more than he has in a while, enough that heâs lost count and heâs feeling a little woozy. The throbbing headache he gets every time he drinks any more than two beers (at Eddieâs, his brain helpfully supplies) is making him want to leave even more than he already did. Every time his eyes betray him and glance at Eddie, glance at the shielded, steeled expression resting on his face that Buck used to know so well, the ice bullet in his head ricochets around before melting and flooding his body with ice-cold anger.
Eddie catches his eyes and gives him the thinnest, tightest-lipped smile heâs ever shared, and Buck canât handle it. Buck gets up in the middle of Athenaâs latest story and leaves, his cup unattended on the very edge of the table.
He could leave, he could walk out, but it could be the last time he sees Eddie and he isnât strong enough to do that.
Instead, he braces his forearms on the bar and waits for the bartender to notice him. What happens first is a stranger hops onto the stool beside Buck and leans onto his elbow, so close Buck canât ignore him in his peripheral vision.
âHey,â the man says. Buck looks over.
Heâs tall, and muscular, and looks like heâs seen his share of bar fights. Despite that, he doesnât seem threatening, just mildly intrigued. There are a few scars on his face, some stretching near his hazel eyes and head of dark hair that subtly reminds Buck of Eddie. In another time, in another life, Buck might go for him.
Not tonight. Not with a woman he wants to love at home and the man he wants to not love at a booth in the corner.
The bartender finally walks over, and Buck orders an IPA without even thinking about it. Heâd been drinking something harder before, but the man leaning over next to him has his brain a bit fried.
The bartender turns to the man in question and takes his order, and then says, âSo, have you flirted with everyone in this bar yet?â
Thereâs an edge of warning to his tone, and Buck stiffens. The manâs eyes flick to the bartender with a touch of irritation, and then he flashes a grin to Buck that is ten times less genuine than whatever Eddie grimaced at him a moment ago.Â
âCome on, man,â he says, âJust trying to find the one, you know?â
Buck canât wait for his IPA to be given to him. Then, the bartender looks at him expectedly, and he realizes that since Raviâs been buying all his drinks, his wallet is still on the table at the booth. He pats his pockets to confirm, and then groans in exasperation when he realizes.
âItâs on me,â the man insists, before telling the bartender, âPut it on my tab.â
âWith the rest of them?â the bartender chuckles, and then raises his eyebrows at Buck like, I warned you. Then, heâs gone, and itâs just the two of them.
The man is radiating body heat, itâs leaking into Buckâs personal space along with the aroma of his cologne. Itâs familiar, and cheap- one Buck mightâve used himself in his old days.
A hand on his thigh makes him jump, and he flinches away from the touch. âHey, man.â
âDonât panic, itâs 2021,â he laughs. âItâs alright.â
âNot that. Not that- at all-,â Buck stutters, his eyes unconsciously flicking to his table. Eddie is watching. âIâve got a girlfriend.â
âYou love her?â he asks. Isnât that the question of the year, now?
âEnough to not want to cheat on her,â Buck snaps, and then he takes his IPA and goes to leave.
A hand on his shoulder stops him. He hears Eddie say something, far off.
âI bought your drink, least you can do is hear me out,â the man is saying, but then a familiar figure is behind him and clearing his throat.
âHe said heâs not interested.â
Of course itâs Eddie. Itâs always Eddie. Part of Buck wants to pull the stranger close and kiss the life out of him just to see if it would make any expression other than apathy show up on Eddieâs stupid face.
âThis your girlfriend?â The man coughs out another laugh, like Buck is nothing more than a joke, a trivial little toy that keeps surprising him. âWow.â
Then, heâs gone, and Eddie is standing where he was.
âYou good?â Eddie asks, low.
Buck nods, then takes a long sip of his drink. Itâs ice cold and soothes the burn in his stomach, but doesnât stop the icy rage that is still flowing through his bones. He wants to sock Eddie in the face- he wouldnât, ever, in a million years- but he wants to see if Eddie is capable of feeling anything, anymore. Maybe he would hit Buck back, and then again, and again, and again, until all his anger is gone and they can be something other than this ever again.
No fists fly. Buck nods, unconvincingly. âThanks.â
âIâve got your back,â Eddie mutters. Is it sour in his mouth? Buck feels it in the back of his throat even though he hasnât said those words in as long as he can think.
âDonât-,â Buck exclaims. âDonât you dare.â
âBuck-?â
âDonât you dare take the only words that are still sacrosanct to me and twist them into- into this! Into whatever this is, into whatever we are now,â Buck growls, fighting to keep his tone low, his teeth gritting. âDonât talk to me, you never wanted to before, so donât.â
âBuck, stop,â Eddie placates, hand out. He leans against the bar, leans close to Buck. âWe donât have to do this.â
âWe? Youâve just decided this for us?â Buck spits, whirling to face him fully. âLike you decide everything else?â
Idly, Buck realizes the background chatter has stalled as people tune in to listen.
âWhat are you talking about?â
âThe will! You, leaving. Thatâs okay, though, because itâs all for the good of Christopher!â Buck yells. âRight? Or, are you using him to hide your feelings, like you have been since you got back from the war!â
Eddieâs jaw is so tight it clicks while Buck watches. He canât do this. Eddie steps forward and wraps Buck in a hug, shoving his chin into his shoulder as his fingers tighten in the fabric of his jacket. Buck isnât pushing away, but he isnât hugging him back, either. Eddie holds on for one more, aching moment, and then steps back.
He reaches out, holds Buckâs jaw in his shaking hands, looks into his eyes. Sees the anger, the ice reflected back at him.
Then, Eddie turns away and walks out of the bar. Buck chokes on a sob and turns to put his head down on the bar, shoulders shaking as Eddie walks out on him, as he leaves, again.

Open up your loving arms - Chapter 2: Ridding stagnation
Astarion asks Gale about cleaning out the unused spaces of their tower house to give Tav and Shadowheart some personal space. The wizard agrees and the vampire spawn sets to work. Shenanigans occur and plans are made.
(Trigger warning (18+): character study, the feels, author's self-indulgent domestic fluff, graphic description of sex, smut, anilingus, anal sex, body worship, coitus a tergo, dirty talking (sort of), fingering, gentle sex, hand job, missionary, smidge of praise kink, vaginal sex)
Notes:
This is self-indulgent domestic fluff. I want this little bunch of weirdos to be happy. They deserve it. This fic mostly drives my post-canon headcanon forwards regarding character study/development.
Two other fics (The sight of spring & Of demons and monsters) are mentioned.
To avoid confusion: In one of my other fanfics, Halsin and Tav had named the owlbear cup NaĂŻlo, which means 'night breeze' in the Elven language.)
My OC Monty first appeared in Gale's origin fanfic.
Also, long story short; Tavâs married to Astarion, Gale and Shadowheart. Astarion and Gale are married. Halsinâs Tavâs and Shadowheartâs additional lover. Theyâre in a closed polyamorous relationship, except for Halsin who apparently sleeps his way through all of FaerĂ»n.
"Darling, why is that insufferable, utterly annoying man in our living room again?" asked Astarion when he'd caught Tav in the kitchen as she was brewing more tea.
"Because we're colleagues," the bard replied. "And he helps me."
The vampire spawn made a face.
"How can someone who's much less talented than you be of help?"
His wife shot him an amused look.
"First of all, thank you for the compliment, love. Secondly, I might be more talented than Volo, but he's the one who's famous and is in contact with publishers and printing companies."
"Oh, you sly dog," Astarion grinned and Tav snickered. "I just fell a little harder for you."
He kissed her passionately, turned on by her competence and cunning.
"Now, let me entertain our guest a bit more," she whispered teasingly, and with one last kiss, she vanished into the living room where Volo kept bragging about his newest work about owlbears.
Astarion didn't listen very long, too annoyed about all the incorrect statements. Tav, on the other hand, was far too kind-hearted, as always, and tried to gently correct and educate the insufferable artist. Meanwhile, Astarion went back to decluttering the upper floors.
Tav moaned blissfully as she made love with Gale. The wizard leisurely rolled his hips into her while kissing her and holding her hand. The bard had her legs wrapped around his waist and now, she placed a foot under her husband's buttcheek to push him closer. Gale panted against her shoulder, thrusting harder to comply to her wishes, and snaked a hand between them to get her off.
"Mmh, yes!" mewled Tav, arching up into him.
Gale spilled into her with a low moan, his fingers continued to rub circles over her clitoris. The bard whined and came with a sob. Panting, they kissed lazily and the bard stroke the wizard's chest-length hair.
"You're so beautiful," she told him sincerely. "I love you."
"I love you too," smiled Gale, still floating in post-orgasmic bliss. He rested on top of her, knowing that Tav didn't mind it and didn't get squished under his weight. Her strength and width were rather impressive.
Gale knew that Astarion liked being manhandled and held up by her, and he wondered if he'd like it too. Most probably, the wizard concluded. He liked everything his wife did. He adored her, nay, worshipped her.
Gale lifted his head to look at Tav and ran his hand through her very short hair. At least, she didn't sport the ugliest haircut in all of FaerĂ»n anymore since Shadowheart helped her cut it evenly. But even before, when they'd met after the nautiloid crash, the bard had been beautiful. â Well, at least in his eyes. It was no secret that Tav had a type of unconventional beauty that wasn't desired by the masses, but she wasn't meant to be adored by the masses anyway.
Smiling, Gale leaned down to kiss her broad, freckled shoulder and she hummed approvingly. They finally moved apart and the wizard lay down on his stomach with his head on his arms to let the bard work her other kind of magic. Tav was a rather talented masseuse. Gale groaned in appreciation when his wife started to work on an especially stubborn knot on his shoulder. Her hands were always so clever, no matter if with instruments, pickpocketing, or otherwise.
"You're way too tense, love," she told him. "You work too much."
Gale hummed non-committally.
"I know you love teaching, but you tend to spread yourself too thin. We admire that you can achieve anything when you put your mind to it, but your weakness is to be too ambitious. You don't have to prove that you're worthy all the time, we know you are."
Tav moved further down, rubbing circles into the skin on both sides of Gale's spine. The latter hissed at the pain.
"You're so stressed that you've stopped eating again, and don't deny it, love, I'm not dense."
The wizard grunted, but kept silent otherwise.
"You're working on too many projects at once," Tav continued. "You have a full-time job at the academy, at the same time, we're finishing the book about our travels, and you're writing your own research papers on the side. You must slow down or otherwise you'll burn out."
"But there's so much I want to do," Gale defended his actions. "It feels like I'm running out of time."
At that, the bard barked a laugh.
"You're a wizard, love. I'm sure you'll find plenty of ways to prolong your lifespan. You'll definitely live longer than me."
Gale wanted to protest, but Tav scooted further down to press her thumbs into his buttcheeks, and he yelped. He turned his head to glare at his wife, but she nonchalantly shrugged, explaining: "You're terribly tense. That's what you get from sitting and standing around all day."
The wizard sighed deeply and pillowed his forehead onto his arms again. It was fruitless to argue with her. Tav moved on to his legs, relentlessly massaging his muscles.
"How's the knee?" she asked caringly.
"It's fine," answered Gale.
Back when they'd fought in the goblin camp, one of the little creatures had snuck up on him when he'd been distracted by casting a spell, and had shattered his kneecap with the iron handle of a broken axe. After the battle, Shadowheart and Halsin had done their best to heal the damage. With the help of his mother's potent salve recipe, Gale had nursed his knee further. Nonetheless, it still troubled him sometimes, especially after kneeling for a while.
"Maybe, you need a change," Tav told him now. "You talk about becoming a private tutor often enough and I think it'll do you good. That way, you'd have more free time for all your other projects."
Gale pondered about it silently.
It was true that he complained about his students on a weekly basis. Especially dear old Tara had to listen to his rants.
"Maybe, you're right," he muttered.
"Of course I'm right, I'm your wife," snickered Tav.
She took his foot into her hands and pressed her thumbs into the sole, making Gale groan. He appreciated her pampering.
At the beginning of their relationship, he'd always felt bad for being taken care of. Mystra had taught him to always serve instead of take, and for a long time, Gale had felt guilty when he'd received affection without doing anything in return. But he'd gotten better about it over the past six years. It helped that Tav loved to shower her lovers with affection and that she happily pleased them without expecting a quid pro quo.
Finally, the bard seemed to be satisfied with her work and let go of her husband's foot. She placed a gentle kiss on each of his buttcheeks.
"At least, promise me to eat regularly. You've gotten awfully skinny again and it just doesn't suit you."
"I promise," Gale answered with a sigh.
"Good," she smiled.
A shiver ran down the wizard's spine at the praise and he blushed slightly. Tav noticed it with a grin and kissed his spine.
"You're so good for me, Gale," she whispered and goosebumps spread over the addressed's skin.
Tav licked a stripe up his crack, making him gasp.
"Get on your knees for me, love."
A bit anxiously, Gale looked over his shoulder. He knew she wouldn't be mad if he'd say no. But, as it was so often the case, curiosity and academic studiousness got the better of him. Thus, the wizard brought his knees under him with his head and shoulders still on the mattress, ass in the air. Gale felt embarrassed and turned his face into the pillow. Tav spread his cheeks apart and started to eat him out enthusiastically, pushing her talented tongue into him. Gale couldn't hold back a guttural moan. The bard kissed his rim before carefully sliding two well-oiled fingers into him and stroking his prostate. Her husband mewled, eyes rolling back in his head.
"That's it love. Let loose, enjoy it. You're doing so well," praised Tav and went back to licking into him between her fingers.
Trembling, Gale wrapped a hand around himself and started to stroke. He came with a high-pitched moan, vision whitening due to the intensity, and spilling over his hand and abdomen. The wizard collapsed onto the mattress, panting elaborately. The bard placed one last kiss on his buttcheek before kissing Gale's shoulder.
"You're wonderful," she murmured, lay down next to him, and pulled him into her arms.
Gale sighed happily, placing his head on her broad shoulder, and linked their fingers together. She had surprisingly small hands for such a strong frame, but since she was shorter than him, it probably made sense.
"Did you enjoy it?" Tav wanted to know.
"Yes," muttered Gale, hiding his face in the crook of her neck, and she smiled amused.
"Good. I wasn't sure if you would. Astarion told me about your little... hm... 'discord'. But he was also the one to encourage me to try it. He said you might prefer it if I eat you out instead of him. He's still a bit scared, you see. He thinks he'll lose control again as soon as he buries his tongue in you."
Gale blushed even harder and wanted to hide somewhere. Why must his spouses always be so blunt when it came to bedroom activities? He doubted that he'd ever get used to it.
"I trust Astarion's judgement," the wizard replied then. "He's come a long way."
Tav nodded.
"He's such a sweetheart, isn't he? Even though he often hides his true self behind his mask of sass and sarcasm. But he'd opened up around us and I'm very proud of him."
"Mhm, me too," muttered Gale smiling.
Now, the bard turned a bit to look at him.
"I'm proud of you too, Gale. You also went through so much and you do well."
The addressed blushed again.
"Thank you. You can't imagine how much your words mean to me."
"I do," said his wife and attempted to kiss him.
But Gale held her back to mutter a spell first, cleaning her mouth, before leaning over. Happily, Gale sighed into the kiss and deepened it while caressing Tav's cheek. Somehow, it was so easy to be with her, she was always understanding, caring, and a ride or die. He loved her for it. Gale wrapped a hand around the bard's shoulder to pull her closer.
On Friday afternoon, Gale was visited by his childhood friend Monty who'd been (and still sometimes was) Elminster's assistant. Together, they'd gotten into loads of shenanigans in Shadowdale during the time Gale had been tutored by Elminster as a teenager.
Now, they were both in their thirties, and sitting in the cozy living room of Gale's tower house, a purring Tara on their lap, a snoring Scratch and NaĂŻlo at their feet, a cup of tea in hand and a piece of vanilla cake balanced on their knees. They chatted about all kinds of topics, talked shop, and reminisced about the past.
"I'm relieved that everything turned out alright," said Monty with a sigh. "So many unfortunate things happened to you; Mystra, the Orb, the Mind Flayer parasite... I'm glad you found happiness and people you love. Your spouses and Shadowheart are lovely. I was so excited to finally meet them at the wedding. You've told me so much about them and I couldn't wait to meet the saviours of Baldur's Gate and all of Faerûn. You're basically famous, legendary almost."
Chuckling, Gale replied: "Now, you're exaggerating. We saved the world, sure, but most of our deeds are already forgotten. There are always new horrors waiting on the horizon one has to worry about. And to be completely honest with you, I'm relieved people don't treat us like heroes. It would be incredibly awkward."
At that, the tiefling laughed.
"You're probably right. If you'd be famous, we couldn't meet up on a random Friday, but must schedule it at least three months beforehand."
Gale joined in his laughter.
"You should visit me and Linard in Shadowdale," Monty told him now. "We built a house with an attached smithy and a laboratory. I'm trying out some new distilled fruit brandy at the moment and Linard's working on some handy daggers."
"I'll swing by," Gale promised, smiling. "Your partner made a lovely first impression at the wedding and the kitchen knives were a very thoughtful gift."
Monty chuckled.
"Linard prefers to make knives and daggers instead of swords and other weapons. That's why some people say he's a useless smith, but I disagree. Knives and tableware as well as shovels and axes are way more important on a daily basis than weapons."
Gale nodded agreeingly with a hum.
Monty stayed for dinner and he thoroughly enjoyed the passionate discussions with Gale and his family. It warmed his heart that his old friend had finally found a place where he belonged, with people who loved him and cared about him.
Around midnight, they said their goodbyes and Monty opened a portal to Shadowdale. As soon as he stepped through, the tiefling was surrounded by the sound of the nightly woods, his hometown quiet and asleep. Monty unlocked the front door of his home as quietly as possible, shutting the heavy oak wood behind him, and toeing of his boots. The smell of metal, fire, and herbal concoctions hung in the air. They complimented each other perfectly, the alchemist-wizard and the smith. The only light source was the low-burning fireplace.
"Ah, you're back."
Linard's deep, husky voice came from the rocking chair in the corner as the tall, broad, blond human stood up and made himself known. Monty smiled.
"Hello, love."
He sighed happily when his partner kissed him. The latter stroke the tiefling's cheek.
"It seems like you had a lot of fun with Gale," Linard remarked, smiling softly. "You must tell me all about it tomorrow. I'd love to hear the newest gossip regarding the saviours of Baldur's Gate and your first crush."
With a heated face, Monty snorted a laugh, grateful that his red skin prevented him from blushing.
"You're an idiot."
"You love me."
"Never said I don't."
They kissed again and things got heated quickly. They hurried upstairs, leaving a trail of clothes behind them. Linard pressed Monty up against the windowsill, kissing him breathless.
"I missed you, sweetling," said the smith. "Now, turn around and let me greet you properly. "
Grinning widely, the addressed complied, leaned forward, and put his hands up against the windowsill. Linard grabbed the oil and started to open his partner up with his thick fingers. Monty squirmed and moaned, widening his stand. He gazed out the window while Linard started to rim him and the tiefling cried out into the silent night in pleasure. When Linard finally deemed him ready and stood up, the tiefling asked teasingly: "Are you jealous for some reason?"
The human snorted a laugh.
"No."
He pressed himself closer to his partner, rubbing his erection against his buttcheeks.
"There's no need for jealousy," replied Linard, grinning, "because I know I'm the one who wakes up next to you every day, makes love to you, and knows exactly what you like."
And with the last sentence, the smith grabbed the base of Monty's tail and tucked it upwards. The tiefling moaned, eyes rolling back in his head, cock drooling precum onto the wooden floor. He arched his back more and tightened his hold on the windowsill.
"Gods, Lin, fuck me already!"
"Today's youth has no patience," tut-tutted the smith teasingly, but he finally pushed in and bottomed out.
Monty threw his head back with a cry, loving the way he was stuffed full by his partner. Linard set a fast pace, almost pulling all the way out before slamming back into the tiefling and hitting his prostate with every thrust. The smith revelled in his lover's cries of pleasure. He ran a hand down Monty's front, caressing the ridges along his sides. Finally, he wrapped his hand around the tiefling's dick and rubbed his fingers along the ridges at the base of it.
"I'm not jealous because we fucked so many times that I know your body better than anyone else."
He flicked a finger against his partner's straining erection, making him moan gutturally.
"I'm not jealous because I know you love me and you are mine."
Linard sheathed himself deep in his lover and came, filling him, while he kept stroking him. With a loud moan, Monty climax too, spilling all over himself, the hand around him, and the floor. His ass flexed, trying to milk his lover dry. Linard leaned over him and placed a tender kiss on Monty's shoulder.
"You're right," panted the latter. "I love you and I'm yours."
At that, the smith hummed pleased and kissed his neck.
"Let's clean up and go to bed, hm?"
"Yeah," said Monty and chuckled.

varré fluff? he's a bastard man but I want to cuddle him......
Ugh OF COURSE (same, cause we like the weird ones here)
So, I'm not sure if you meant headcanons or not so I wrote this little short story instead (because yes) Anyway! I hope you enjoy this fluffy Varre/Tarnished fic <3
wc: 648 tw: mention of gore (i think? does weird lumps count?), blood mention (duh, it's Varre), do bloody fingers need a tw?
Blood Rose
You were exhausted, having just fought your way through Stormveil. Liurnia, so far, had proven to be no less forgiving. There wasn't a single place where some part of you didn't feel at least somewhat vulnerable. So, when the familiar sight of a church was in your line of sight, relief washed over you like a waterfall. You quickly approached the church and were met with a familiar face.
Varre stood at the entrance to the church, which was covered in weird... globs of flesh, it seemed. As Varre spotted you approaching, his posture shifted ever so slightly. Despite his hunched position, he pulled himself up ever so slightly. It was hardly noticeable but he did it regardless. "Varre? What are you doing here?" The man was smiling under his mask, you could tell by the way his voice fluctuated into a tone, almost elated to see you. He began his rambling over the man he served under and gave you 5 festering bloody fingers. He urged you to try them out, claiming that you would quite enjoy them. For a moment you stared, and then pushed the fingers into your travel pack. "I really do urge you, I believe you will like them very much, lambkin" Varre sounded quite confident in himself and it drew a smile out of you. Sure, he was weird, but he was one of the only people in this place who hadn't tried to kill you upon setting his sights on you. In fact, he had been more than helpful since you came to the lands between. After a moment of pause, your eyes met the space where you guessed his eyes would be under his mask.
"I'll try them later, Varre. I just need rest right now... mind if I join you?"
The church was weird, but perhaps the feeling of familiarity had brought some form of comfort to your tired soul. You hadn't felt a sense of relief since you set foot here in Liurnia, so the feeling was more than welcome.
Varre was silent for a moment. He seemed to be contemplating your request like it was the oddest thing he had ever heard anyone say to his face. After the silence drew out much too long for his liking, he forced his head into a slow nod. "I suppose, for but a moment."
At his response, you immediately lean against the wall next to him and slide down into a sitting position. Sure, it wasn't the best place to catch some shut-eye, but might as well while you had the chance. Varre stood there silently and watched as your breathing slowed. At first, he was a little disgruntled at the idea of having to save your ass in this state. However, after a little more staring, he sighed and slid down the wall just as you had, sitting next to you with his legs crossed. He wasn't sure how long the two of you remained like this but it must have been a while because the sun had finally begun to rise.
As the sunlight danced over your eyelids, you squished your eyes tighter briefly before they slowly began to flutter open. You had not expected that when you turned to look next to you, Varre would be sitting there... staring... had he stared at you all night? Did he never sleep? You forced your thoughts down and instead, you offered him a smile.
"Thank you for watching over me, Varre"
The man grunted in response and turned his gaze away. Before he could get up, you carefully threw your arms over him in a half-awake hug. Varre froze up. Any asshole comment that he could think of, died on his tongue. Just as soon as you had hugged him, you had left, wishing him well in your absence... Oh, how very strange you were indeed...

âź â HANA IS A PERVERT! hana âd.vaâ song
â âyou keep lurking in my dreams.â
description.            ever since hana had arrived to the overwatch base she has been watching you close, dreaming of you, wanting you, have visions of you while relieving herself
content warnings.              MDNI, nsfw content, female-bodied reader, mention of angela, masturbation, wet dreams, infatuation authorâs notes.            continuing the âIS A PERVERT!â line, next up is hana !!! enjoy the filth smut lovers
it wasnât unusual for hana to be out this late around the base, being the new addition to the overwatch family, getting used to the time zone differences and to her new bed without her friend just a step away. but she had to do what must have been done and she did so without question or doubt, following most if not all words of her commanders.
the other side of her story of being up, one that she would be embarrassed admitting out loud, is that your shift usually started late at night for whatever reason. hana wanted to ask if it was because you choose the night life or were the higher ups forcing you. but she never did, she always just watched as you did your rounds, restocked first aid kits around the corridors, assess inventories, and manage paper files. the night at the infirmary was relatively slow that much hana noticed, only a few agents came around and needed assessment rather than the rush in the morning.
the more time she spent watching you, the more she couldnât stop the dreams from accompanying her when she turned back to her bed. she saw you, everything she wanted to see she saw in her imagination as she tossed and turned, trying to shush her thoughts when in reality she didnât really want to. she just couldnât stop, every vision she had you during her lewd dreams just drawn her to you even more, so much so she became obsessed with the thought of at least once feeling what it felt like to be with you. but she never really made up the courage, rather ran when you took an innocent glance at her direction- you werenât even looking at her- but she thought you were, she was sure you were, and she couldnât let go of that anymore.
it was much later that she started to sneak into the camera room, getting all the screens to be different angles of the infirmary to be so she could see you from your ever side. it riled her up, had her squish her thighs together as she watched your every step, over sexualizing every little move you made because she was that obsessed with you now. she scared herself with how much she needed to see you, but the other part of her that approved of her actions were much more persuasive than the half that was trying to tell her she was walking down the wrong path.
hana grew more and more brave, but not in a sense anyone would expect. first it was just when she went to shower, holding herself up by leaning on her hands against the white tiles on the wall, just thinking about your teasing words as you finger roamed across her slim frame then it progressed to her touching herself as the hot water ran down her back. she whispered your name multiple times, begging for the fragment of you in her imagination for to go faster and let her cum. she imagined you called her a good girl, a good bunny, your good bunny as she came on her fingers, shaking, and shivering.
the peak of hanaâs stalking was when she completely disregarded the possibility of someone else being up other than the two of you, watching from the end of the hall, from behind a doorframe. she had the same pjâs on that she always did, those soft pink shorts with a deeper pink shirt that was too big on her. the rubber bands in the shorts were loose, hana always needed to tie the laces so it wouldnât slip so low on her body but tonight at this moment, they werenât tied.
you wore one of those tighter outfits you had, everyone let it slip because the white coat covered it up, leaving nothing for the eyes or the imagination. her mind went into override waiting for that moment for you to discard the coat, complain of the hot of the office under your breath before sitting back into your chair. the deeper tone that your cheeks picked up when you did so, the slight glint of your skin under the led lights, and the sighs you let out in frustration did all the things hana waited for. she slipped her hand in the loose shorts, shamelessly leaning against the wall as she watched you struggle with the heat.
oh how she wanted you to be the one taking advantage of her, pushing her from behind up against the wall and use her. there was no concern in her for her dignity, she had an inkling that whoever would walk in on her fingering herself wouldnât say a word- but in this moment she didnât care, she just wanted you, you, only you.
ây/nâŠâ she sighs as she pushes her fingers in deeper, two is enough, tho it is a tight fit. but you probably wouldnât mind the challenge to stretch her, help her fit a little more inside so she can feel even better. all she needed was you, one word from you and she would do anything, no matter what it was.
hanaâs head fell against the wall, huffing as she worked inside of herself. âplease, I n-need it.â she cries as low as she can, her teary eyes trying to focus on you but itâs so hard to keep her eyes open now or keep herself up. she didnât need too much to tip over the edge now, she never did, all she could think about through out the day was this exact moment when she could watch you and fuck herself thinking it was you. nothing made her day better, nothing else made losing a mission better than having your pretty face on display, the frustration written all over it as she clawed her insides thinking she was helping you relieve all that was bothering you.
âthatâs it bunny let go,â hana utters the words, but she hears them in your tone, now really lost in her fantasy as she draws her fingers against her walls and with the remaining strength she has before creaming on her fingers, she bites down on the neck of her shirt, trying to stuff as much into her mouth as she can. hana wanted you to hear it, hear as she cries your name out and collapse because of all the lewd thoughts you caused her.
she couldnât let you, not yet, that strange stomach-turning feeling was still bothering her whenever she tried to walk into your office. just a look from you would get her flustered, get her to forget what she wanted and embarrass herself. she will eventually do it, tell you how much she likes you and that she wants you to show her everything you know, never show it to anyone else just her, only her.
