This Life is Sweeter Than Fiction: Debut
The start of an age! I'm so excited to get to share this new verse with you! I've been working on this pop star Tony AU for almost a year, and with the Latin American leg of the tour starting today, I thought it was finally time to share it with you 💚💚💚 (updates weekly)
Beautiful Eyes
They already think he’s crazy for moving out all this way with just his guitar and demo CD, told him that everyone moves out to Nashville thinking they’re gonna get discovered, just wait and see, so who is he to think he’s better than the rest of them? There are four other people just in his grade who are trying to get picked up by a label. Tony’s dreams aren’t special. And he gets that, really he does, but he is special. How many of those kids are writing their own songs? How many of them can play four instruments? How many of them have gigs every single week? He’s special, he’s different, and he’s good. It’s not crazy to think that someone will notice that about him, is it?
A Place in This World
Tony sits down at the table, uncaps the pen, and takes a look at the contract. The places where he’s supposed to sign are tabulated, so he can easily find them throughout the contract, but he’s read it so many times over the last few weeks that he can recite the entire thing practically by heart. He finds the first spot where he’s supposed to put his signature, takes a deep breath—no backing out now, he’s actually going to do this—and signs.
The Outside
“Tony, come and meet your band!” Stane calls jovially from where he’s standing by the steps to one of the Sakura Street World Tour buses. Holy shit, Tony’s tour bus. Or, well, not just his, he still has to share it with some of his band, but it’s a whole lot more than he thought he’d ever get just six months ago. Stane is standing with a group of people, all adults, and Tony has the sudden realization that that’s his band. If he’s lucky, he’ll be working with these people for a longtime (if he’s really lucky, it might even be the rest of his life).
Stay Beautiful
“Ru, look, you are really someone, just ask anyone. You’re beautiful, every little piece of you, just absolutely incredible. And you’re so talented and charismatic. I love that you take pictures at every one of your stops and put them up above you bunk, I love that you know everything about your band members, I love that you scheduled a stop on this tour just so that your drummer could have that destination wedding she wanted. And you know, my mom used to tell me this thing back when I was younger and wondering if I was ever going to find everything I was looking for.” “What?” Rumiko asks, wiping her nose on the napkin again. “Stay beautiful,” Tony says.
Should've Said No
Dating Rumiko is like dating no one else that Tony has ever been with. When she first talks about him in an interview she’s giving to Vanity Fair, telling the interviewer what a lovely person he is and how grateful she is to have gotten to know him, it sets him to blushing deep enough that Jarvis comments his hair will turn red if he stays like that. That night, when he sneaks into Rumiko’s hotel room, he’s almost—not quite, but almost—tempted to let her take things further, but something stops him. Looking back on it years later, he’ll think it’s a good thing that that something had stopped him.
Picture to Burn
“Obie won’t approve it" Tony says. "It’s in my contract. I’m not supposed to perform any of my own songs on this tour other than what he’s approved. Besides, don’t you think people will get upset that I’m calling them out? I don’t want to get labeled as some hysterical omega bitch.” Natasha looks at him and says, “Let them call you a hysterical omega bitch. They did shitty things, and they’ll keep doing them if someone doesn’t stop them. Don’t you think they should get called out for it?”

Make It Work (request)
Chris evans x teen!reader, Chris evans x daughter!reader, Chris evans x costar!reader
Request description: hey <3 would you be able to write maybe a Chris evans x teen!reader where Chris is like a father figure to them. Maybe in an interview he calls them his daughter and he’s kinda nervous when he realises what he said and after they’re talking and they’re both okay with it and ends with cuddles? Thank you:)
Requested by: @idontlikeagoldrush
Warnings: parental issues, slight insecurity?
(A/n) ok so this is my second fic and I feel like my writing is already going downhill 😭😭 idk I just didn’t like this one as much as the last one. Thank u for all the notes on the last one tho omg i didn’t expect that much!!!!! Love u all :) plz keep sending!!! And lmk what u think of this, plus if u wanna be added to my taglist :D
You met Chris a year and a half ago, when the two of you were cast in a movie together. You were scared to meet him at first, because of what a big and incredible actor he was. But upon meeting him, you’d automatically figured out that he was just a massive ball of love and kindness, and you had nothing to be afraid of.
You started to look forward to arriving on set everyday, and you suddenly started to long for Monday mornings when you’d finally see Chris after the weekend, so you could update him on all the new little things you haven’t gotten the chance to, Instead of how much you dreaded Monday’s before, simply because of work.
But acting doesn’t feel like much work anymore. You played Chris’s daughter in the movie the two of you were in, and it wasn’t far off your actual relationship. A lot of the scenes the fans loved so much were actually just real, improvised conversations between the two of you. You were really close.
And since you had grown up without a father, you’d started to seek that role from him. One day when the two of you were gonna sneak off set for ice cream in between takes, you went running back to your trailer to change quickly, then you had realized it. “Hold on, dad!” You’d yelled behind your shoulder, to Chris. You stopped dead in your tracks, shook your head, and turned around quickly. Chris was standing there with a massive, goofy smile on his face. You rolled your eyes as you felt your stomach drop, before turning to run back to your trailer. This was the first of many incidents.
“Stop, dad!” You laughed, as Chris was tickling you, trying to get you to drop his phone that you’d stolen from his pocket. But even though he hadn’t stopped tickling you, your smile fell. “Shit, I didn’t mean to-“ you tried to revert your words, but Chris didn’t care. “Y/n, it’s fine! Just surrender my phone and I’ll forget about it. Otherwise I’m gonna leave your trailer and tell all the crew you just accidentally called me ‘dad!” He said.
It put a strain on your relationship, in your eyes. You had to be more careful. Everytime you found a father figure, they’d end up disappointing you. Your old teachers who you’d try to confide in, and your moms friends, your friends dads, they’d never fulfilled you the way you needed to be. So you knew you had to end your relationship with Chris, because it would only hurt more in the end.
It’d been a while since you finished filming, and the movie was released a few months earlier. Now the two of you are on a press tour. Your interviews were finished for the day about an hour ago, so you’d gone back to your hotel to get ready to just chill in bed.
Once you’d showered and changed into pajamas, you’d go to lay in bed. You answered texts, spent an average amount of time checking your social media, reposting things on Instagram, and liking things on tiktok. Then you checked Twitter and saw a video you were tagged in.
Once you clicked on it, you saw that it was from an interview that Chris did at the premier of the movie. You weren’t anywhere in sight, you’d probably slipped off to the restroom or something. “How was it working with a co-star that was so young?” The woman who was interviewing Chris asked. He took a couple of seconds to think before answering, pretty quickly. “Oh well, it was incredible! I mean, y/n is such a talented kid who’s gonna go so far, I mean, so far! And, you know I’m just so proud of her. Y’know? She’s like my daughter! She’s amazing!” Chris says, but you've known him long enough to notice the look of regret in his eyes after he says the last part.
You have to pause the video to take in what he said. You already feel emotional and you put your hand over your mouth to cover your smile, even though you’re alone. But then you go over what he said in your head and think about what his reaction was when he called you his daughter.
You look back to your phone and replay it five times. Everytime you see the way his face drops, like he’s never made a bigger mistake. You sigh, feeling hurt.
You feel like an absolute idiot. All the times you’d slipped up and ratted yourself out for the fact that you’d thought of him as a father, he’d assured you it was alright. But he was an actor, after all. And he was probably weirded out every time. And now he just slipped up like you always had, but this time, he didn’t mean it subconsciously.
You shut your phone off, and rub your eyes, as if preparing them for the tears that inevitably come pouring out right after. You’re so hurt. You can't tell if you’re being dramatic, because you sometimes can be. But he looked like he didn’t mean it whatsoever. And you know Chris pretty well.
Your phone screen lights up. “Wanna go roller skating?” Chris texts you. “No” you simply answered, as you didn’t have the energy to say anything else. But he knew you too well to just let that go. From his hotel room, his smile dropped. He was immediately worried for you, and so he walked to your hotel room, and used the key-card that you had decided to give to him a while ago, since you had two.
He saw you on your bed with your legs tucked to your chest. His stomach immediately fell and he knew something was wrong. “Y/n, what’s wrong, honey?” He asked, as he ran to sit down next to you.
Once you’d heard him speak, you immediately started wiping the tears off of your face, and untucking your face from their place in between your knees. “Chris, please leave.” You said with a shaky voice.
He looked confused. “Why, did I do something?” He asked with genuine worry on his face. This only hurts you more. “No, Chris you-you did nothing. It’s just too much to explain. Please just go.”
Chris wouldn’t give up that easily. “Tell me what happened, y/n. I can't leave knowing there’s something up with you. You tell me everything, so what happened?” He pries. You keep crying.
“That’s the problem, Chris. We finish the press tour in two weeks. And then what? Then I go back to having no one. I have to end this routine now, or else it’s gonna hurt worse later.” You stand up from the bed and cry.
You cover your face in embarrassment and anger, as you sob. Chris feels terrible, remembering what he said last week on the red carpet that he tried to block out of his memory. Chris puts a hand on your shoulder, “Y/n, you mean too much to me to just give up on our relationship. You’re important to me. You’re like…” Chris starts, but trails off, looking away from you.
“Your daughter?” You look at him, with tears running down your face. He smiles sadly, but genuinely. “Well, yeah. And we can make it work after the press tour is over. We can still see each other.” He assured you.
You sighed, and wiped your tears away, sitting back on your hotel bed, and Chris sat closer to the foot of the bed. “Did you mean to call me your daughter in that interview last week?” You ask, playing with your hands. Chris sighs, “not really, if I’m being honest. It just came out, and I was too embarrassed to talk about it. Now I understand how it felt all those times you accidentally called me your dad.” Chris laughs.
You try to hide your frown, and look up at Chris. “So then, you don’t really feel that way?” You whisper. Chris shakes his head, “I do! I honestly do, y/n. Just because I didn’t mean to say it doesn’t mean I don’t feel it. You’re very important to me, and I’ve never gotten to have any kids, so I consider you my own,” He says, “If you’ll have me, of course.”
You smile and sniffle. “Yeah.” You say, leaning into Chris’s arms. He hugs you tightly and you hug him back. You don’t end up going roller skating like he’d wanted to, but the two of you sit in your hotel room and watch movies on your laptop. You and Chris sit next to each other, and eventually you fall asleep with your head on his shoulder.
He decides to shut your laptop down, and turn your lights off. He pulls your blanket up over you, and kisses you on the forehead. You shift slightly while being half asleep. “Goodnight, y/n.” Chris says, as he starts to walk towards the door to leave. “Goodnight, dad.” You say groggily, before immediately falling back asleep. Chris turns around and smiles, but you’re asleep and can’t regret what you just said.
And the two of you do make it work.
…

Doyoung On His Pride In NCT, Group’s Upcoming Dome Tour, His Long-Term Goal As A Musician, And More
NCT’s Doyoung is on the cover of W Korea’s upcoming issue!
In the interview accompanying his pictorial, Doyoung gave an update on what he’s been up to. “I recently wrapped up filming for the TVING original drama ‘To X Who Doesn’t Love Me‘ (literal translation),” he shared. “You can watch it in June. Also, I can’t talk about it in detail, but I’m currently preparing really fun things. I’m also recording.”
As the star excitedly talked about his recent ventures in acting, Doyoung was asked what his favorite movies and dramas were. He chose dramas like “The Lady in Dignity,” “When the Camellia Blooms,” as well as “Melo Is My Nature,” which stars his older brother Gong Myung. He then added, “Oh, also ‘Crash Landing On You’! I have so much to say about this drama. Do I look too excited right now?”
Doyoung happily continued, “I only watched this drama recently. So I watched while knowing that the actors in the drama are together in real life. What was memorable was the line Hyun Bin said while drinking, ‘I want to watch you grow old by your side, and I want to watch you raise children.’ While watching that emotional scene, I was going crazy thinking, ‘Wait, those two are getting married next month!’ I was in so deep.”
When asked if he had ever met “Crash Landing On You” stars Hyun Bin or Son Ye Jin, Doyoung answered with a laugh, “Never. We are not acquainted at all. But I still wanted to upload a congratulatory message on my [Instagram] story! I just barely held back, in case I looked like I had taken it too far. I want to take this opportunity to say, ‘I sincerely congratulate your love!'”
Right after Doyoung became an SM Entertainment trainee, he quit school and told his friends that he was moving overseas. Doyoung explained why he did this, saying, “There’s a behind story. I went with my mom to tell my homeroom teacher that I had become a trainee and likely had to drop out. Since it was a sudden change for me and I was cautious about it, I wanted it to be a secret for the time being.”
He continued, “However, I guess there was a past student who was in a similar situation as me. My teacher told me that story and asked my thoughts on just saying that I was immigrating or going to study abroad. I did wonder whether that would be okay…but after that was what my classmates were told, I couldn’t say it wasn’t true and that’s how it continued.”
Next month, NCT 127 is kicking off their first-ever dome tour across Japan, which is a huge milestone for musicians. Doyoung commented, “I’ve also only heard from others that it’s incredibly meaningful and important to be able to perform at Tokyo Dome. Honestly, I still can’t believe it. There hasn’t really been any reason to stand on a big stage or listen to long cheers for the past two years [due to the pandemic].”
Doyoung added, “When I was a trainee, I once went to watch TVXQ‘s performance at Tokyo Dome and I had goosebumps before they even appeared on stage. My memory is still so clear of the massive audience, the light sticks moving in concert, and the passionate cheers. To see that view from the stage instead of the audience must be amazing, right?”
The NCT member was asked what thought occurs to him most when thinking about the group and he answered, “Now, I often think that I feel proud. I think we’re quite cool. I feel that way when I think about the colors and diversity that the team exudes, as well as when I think about my members. We make diverse music without being afraid of new things, and while doing so, we also maintain our team’s unique color. That’s not easy, but I think we’re pulling that off.”
Doyoung continued, “While I was listening to music by Mark, who recently released a solo single, I felt so proud. For example, I think the emotion I felt then is exactly that pride [I mentioned earlier]. I feel that way about all my members, not just Mark. Each and every one of my members are my pride.”
As it’s been six years since NCT’s debut, Doyoung’s answer took the interviewer by surprise. Doyoung elaborated, “I had pride from the start. However, in the past, I don’t think I was able to recognize that well. Honestly, when I first debuted, I really felt the difficulties of NCT’s system. Lee Soo Man once said, “While [the public] may need some time to adjust, once they adjust and start to like you, you will be more charming than any other team.’ I feel like I’ve only now understood the meaning of those words.”
Lastly, Doyoung talked about his long-term career goals. He shared, “We’ve gotten the opportunity to stand on a big stage like Tokyo Dome. As a team, I don’t think we can look beyond that right now, so I’ll just speak for myself. I want to become a musician who can hold concerts alone. Even if I can’t actually do a concert in real life. I want to grow into a singer who has that much capability.”
NCT 127 will kick off their Japan Dome Tour in Nagoya on May 22 and Doyoung’s upcoming romance drama will premiere this June.

OTH 2X21 REWATCH REVIEW
1. IIIIIIIIIII DON’T WANNA BE ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT I’VE BEEN TRYNA BE LATELYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
2. OK it feels like I already reviewed this episode and yet I can’t find it, sooooooo I guess I’m doing it twice.
3. No no I definitely reviewed this.
4. But it’s not in my drafts. Maybe I started and it got deleted.
5. BRO THE VELCRO MESSENGER BAGS. I USED TO HAVE ONE. It was THE thing in the 2000s, fuck a knapsack!
6. FOR. LEYTON?
7. “We could have a car wash.” “Nathan and cars, not a good combo.” He wouldn’t be driving the cars, Lucas.
8. Y’all I swear I did this review.
9. Brooke seriously had some of the best lines
10. COME ON IT WILL BE FUN TO RAISE MONEY AT A FUNDRAISING EVENT WHERE EVERYONE KNOWS HOW BROKE YOU ARE.
11. I like how Brooke is freaking out over basic tank tops.
12. I like how there aren’t any other avenues for Haley’s music, it HAS to be this tour and this duet with Chris. If she’s so talented she should have other interest.
13. So, the first time I watched this episode, when Nathan tells Brooke that he dreamed about them showering together (which they actually didn’t do, she just showed up naked when he was in the shower), my mom was pretending not to watch the show when it was on and she was like WHY WOULD YOU TELL HER THAT?
14. I am still so mad that they wanted Peyton not to look like complete trash so they had Brooke and Nathan sleep together.
15. Honestly, it would’ve been cool if they developed Peyton and Nathan’s friendship more.
16. If this was FNL, the boosters would’ve taken care of Nathan considering he’s the star player. Gotta get right before the season starts up again.
17. I don’t think I’ve ever had Cracker Jack.
18. To be honest, I’m not even sure I know what it is. Is it caramel popcorn?
19.
FOR. LEYTON?????
20. Haley, your husband was in a car accident. You’re not even calling anyone for updates.
21. This Dan/Nathan scene is supposed to be high tension and emotional and I’m just getting flashbacks to watching my grandfather’s stories.
22. Wrote you this, I hope you got it safe, it’s been so long, I don’t know what to say... OTH and Grey’s had a lot of the same music.
23.
“it was only about Jenny and her trying to create a family because of her daddy issues!” shut up.
24. Brooke finding Peyton’s stuff is always like damn
even though i do NOT ship Chair it gives me Chair vibes when I felt so bad for Blair when Chuck said he didn’t love her
25. THE. ANGST.

-Uriah-
You pushed off of him to an upright position, not sure you’d heard him right. “Say what!?”
Chris sat up as well and leaned on the headboard.
“Yeah. Abel, the detective, found that the video was doctored. It was spliced together using so many different audio clips dating back to when Knives Out was announced. She had someone doctor it to make it seem like it was me, or recent and current me.”
You were ready to claw her eyes out. “That bitch!”
Chris sighed. “That’s not it,” he began. He reached for your hand and brought you closer. You swung your leg over his lap and sat on his thighs, giving him your undivided attention.
“Remember the picture of her in the sweater?”
Clenching your jaw, you nodded. “The one from your room?”
He nodded. “You’re right—it was from my room.”
You gaped at him, ready to lunge at him, but you stopped yourself.
“She snuck in, stripped down, and posted it. Abel was able to get security footage from the hotel. She bribed one of the housekeeping staff. They let her in, and it was at the same time I was on call for press. The timestamp shows it. I’m thinking she knew it would set you off and create problems between us.”
You couldn’t believe what he was saying. This was insane. Why would someone go to these lengths?
“Wow.” You rubbed your forehead, trying to wrap your head around everything. Not only were you still grappling with everything that happened since the accident, including things with Christiano, but the babies and Chris’s downward spiral, but now this. “Oh my god.”
“The investigator uncovered a video from the hotel—and so much more.” Chris released a heavy breath then took your hand. “It all points to her, Riah.”
His fingers traced imaginary patterns on my hand and along the length of my fingers.
“And the text messages?” You couldn’t help yourself. Chris looked up from your hand and to your waiting eyes. The look on his face was an inquisitive one. “The ones between you and her about us,” you finished.
There was no look of shock; he just looked resolved, as if he somehow knew that you knew.
“How do you know about that?”
“I did something crazy,” you began before pausing to find the right way to explain.
It only took a few moments to forego any strategic plan and lay it out. So that is what you did. You explained your mission impossible operation with Kizzy and Zora a few weeks ago at Chris’s press junket. You explained being in the elevator to witness Ana’s blatant flirting. You explained, taking her purse and going through her phone to find out how devious she was. By the time you finished, the silence in the room was deafening. Chris hadn’t moved or spoken since you began. The look on his face was so masked and neutral that you couldn’t tell if he was on the brink of an angry outburst or a disappointed one.
Suddenly Chris snorted loudly then laughed obnoxiously, clapping his free hand across his chest. The laugh went on so long to the same caliber that you couldn’t help but join in. So the two of you sat there laughing together for several long minutes. Once both of you were laughed out, you just stared at each other.
“I can’t say that I’m surprised,” Chris started first, continuing to rub your hand. “I knew who I married.”
He sighed and shook his head. That was when you saw the remorse in his eyes. “I’m sorry. I should have told you about it all, but I didn’t want to hurt you or have you doubt me.”
Chris clenched his jaw then crinkled his brow. “In hindsight, I know it looked really suspicious. There are so many things I see now that I didn’t then. I shouldn’t have even had those text exchanges. It’s not her place to know anything small or not about our marriage. Jesus.” Chris took his hand away then raked it through his hair before locking his hands behind his neck—one of his frustrated ticks. His eyes were dropped to your thighs, and that’s where they remained.
“I’m sorry, Riah.”
His voice sounded clouded, and that was the only indication you needed to know his emotions were getting the better of him.
“I’ve been so stupid. So stupid,” he choked out.
“Baby.” You slid closer to him, grabbing his elbows to pull them down to rest on top of your thighs. “Look at me.”
You raised his chin so he was looking into your eyes. His tears stained his cheeks and welled his eyes. You’d wanted him to see the error of his ways so many times. You’d wished he could see it your way and understand, and now that he did, you should have felt vindicated, but you didn’t. There really were no winners when the family feuds.
Dropping your face into the crook of his neck, you inhaled his scent.
“I’m sorry, dragonfly,” Chris whispered, wrapping his arms around you holding you close. “So sorry.”
“Baby—look at me.”
He pulled back enough for you to peer into his eyes. As you caressed his cheek, you spoke.
“It’s okay. I—you--,” you sighed, then traced your thumb across his bottom lip. “I understand. There has been so much—pain, so much sorries and--.” Again you stopped for a few seconds.
“No more,” you finished.
Chris slowly nodded his head, grasping your meaning. He then kissed your thumb and nuzzled his bearded jaw into your palm. Though you wanted to move on, there was one more burning question, one more thing you had to know. Nibbling your bottom lip, you found your courage.
“Were—were you tempted?”
You couldn't look at him, so you kept your head down.
“What? Tempted? To do what?”
Meeting his eyes, you swallowed, then continued.
“Cheat,” you whispered.
Chris sat up straight, and he cupped your face within his large hands. His eyebrows were crooked with the intense, take me serious look he always got when he was about to say something important.
“Look at me. Never.”
You tried to look away, but he wouldn’t let you.
“Listen and hear me, Uriah, never, ever. I would never. I told you I married you for a reason. I had a plan. Forever and a day, Uriah. You promised me forever and a day, and I won’t stand for anything less. I’m collecting all of it. Forever and a day.”
Fighting the tears, you scoffed. “You were a jackass. When I tell you a woman wants you, don’t doubt me.”
Chris smiled and nodded. “I was. Never again. We don’t be here again. I’m going to be Pence from now on. You must be present at all times, or I’m not alone with any women.”
You busted out laughing, and for the first time, you didn’t feel the heaviness of the last few weeks. It felt almost normal, like the two of you were on your way. Chris kissed you once, then twice before resting his forehead to yours.
“We have to nail her ass to the wall,” you declared, staring into his eyes.
“Oh, definitely. What did you have in mind, Mrs. Evans?”
“You didn’t file the papers?”
Chris scoffed, then rolled his eyes.
“I don’t know who you think I am, but you’re gonna have to try harder than divorce papers to get rid of me, Dragonfly.”
Again you smiled. “So whatever I want, you won’t be the voice of sympathy?”
“Whatever you want, kitten,” Chris replied, kissing the tip of your nose, making your belly flutter in the process.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’m so happy that you’re okay, sweetheart,” your mother said as she pulled you into a group hug with your father.
“I’ll be okay, mom.”
Your father cupped your cheek, taking the time to inspect your face. You knew he wasn’t looking for physical harm. He was realizing how close he’d come to losing you, how he’d failed you. You could tell. When Chris had called them to update them, they instantly wanted to hear your voice. When they did, they broke, and that breaking turned to shattered when everything came out.
You’d spent two hours on the phone with them, listening to them apologize and blame themselves for putting so much trust in Christiano. They felt horrible for never suspecting that he would stoop so low. They begged you not to hate them, begged you to forgive them. It was easy to promise them you weren't angry because you understood. You didn’t blame them or hold a grudge for them not doing more. They had no idea who Christiano really was—you didn’t either. The only one who ever saw him for who he was, was Chris.
“I’m so sorry, Uriah. As your father, I should have done more to keep you away from him.”
“Daddy, don’t. There is nothing you could have done. You did the best with what the information you had—you all did,” you assured, looking around at the faces of everyone you loved, both your family and Chris’s.
Lisa approached and pulled you into another hug. You could feel her tears.
“I’m okay, I promise.”
“I am so happy that you are.” Her hand dropped to your bump, and she smiled. “That you all are.”
Just like that, the waterworks started again, and everyone huddled around you, everyone but Chris, who was standing back most likely watching with a cheesy smile on his face. When they released you, your guess was correct. Chris smiled, then winked at you.
“So how are we getting those sons of bitches?”
All eyes snapped to Zora, who looked as if she was ready to rip out a heart and eat it.
“Down girl—Chris has already laid the groundwork,” you said.
“And it was easy, just play into that colossal ego of his,” Chris finished, kissing my temple.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Chris-
MSG Love Of My Life: Remember, don’t let him goad you. He’s going to try.
He scoffed; it was an understatement.
MSG: I’m good. He can’t get me to because I have what he doesn’t, and I know something he doesn’t.
MSG Love Of My Life: You do have me. Forever and a day, my love. <Kiss emoji, heart emoji>
MSG: You should have let me go with you. I don’t like you’re alone.
MSG Love Of My Life: I’m not alone. I have my parents, Kizzy, Zora, your sisters, your mom, our lawyers. I am far from alone.
MSG: You know what I mean.
MSG Love Of My Life: I don’t think I could relive it all with you next to me anyway. It’s better this way. I’ll see you soon. Remember what I said. <Kiss>
He sighed and tried to push aside the guilt he felt. He wanted to be with you, holding your hand. You’d gone through too much alone, and all he wanted to do now was protect you.
MSG Scott: Need me to come up?
MSG: Nah, I can handle this.
MSG Scott: Okay.
He slipped his phone back into his pocket and stared out over the canyons and LA down below. It was a beautiful sight, one he liked a lot but not better than the changing leaves of Autumn in Massachusetts. He would never choose LA over them. It was, however, a good change of pace, but it staled quickly. Standing here, it was easy to forget the chaos of the last few months. Easy to forget that merely days ago, he’d thought his life was over, and it would never be the same.
“I can’t believe you suggested this. What, you’re a glutton for punishment? That’s cool; I don’t mind helping you with that.”
The sound of his voice was enough to make him want to turn around swinging, then drag him to the edge and kick him off Sparta style. He didn’t deserve to live, not after what he’d done to you. He clenched his jaw and tightened his fist, and slowly released a breath. Once he was sure he had some sort of control over his reflexes, he turned. Christiano looked as smug as ever. He’d never wanted to take a life, but right now, right here, he thought of at least ten ways in under one minute. They all involved pain.
“So, what air is there to clear?”
He clenched his jaw before he spoke.
“She’s still my wife.”
“Ah, ah, ah, according to those divorce papers she sent over, even that is limited time. Face it man; you’ve lost. I’ve won. I always win. I always get what I want, no matter what. It’s hilarious to me that you thought swooping into her life like that and marrying her on a whim would have changed things. Uriah has always been mine. She was always meant to be mine.”
His hatred for the man in front of him was already at toxic levels. He had no idea how it was possible for it to increase. Staring at him and hearing the venom he just spewed did the trick.
“So, this is just a game to you? This is her life—this is our life. All of this is for what?”
“To win what’s rightfully mine. I’m Christiano White. I get what I want when I want it, and that includes women. No one takes what’s mine. No one, and she’s mine!”
The smugness on his face was the most upsetting thing. He didn’t care hearing him profess fake ownership. He didn’t even care that Christiano thought he had so much privilege that he would get away with his insane plane. Even the thought that him being Christiano White meant jack shit. What really got to him was the fact he’d done this to prove some stupid, sick point. He’d played with his life, your life, and the life of his children for the sake of winning. He stepped to Christiano, ready to push his ass off the cliff, but before he touched him, the thought of you and those innocent babies flashed into his mind. There was no way he’d do this to you guys, he thought.
Gathering some calm, he stepped back. Christiano chuckled.
“Thay’s right. Recognize when you’ve lost, and oh, have you lost. Let me tell you how bad you’ve lost. She was in my bed, letting me touch her, kiss her, please her. She shouted my name, over and over. Not yours.”
He scoffed. “You sure? My name’s Chris. Did she say, Christiano?”
The smirk on Christiano’s face slipped, and rage replaced it. It was a small piece of satisfaction, but it was worth it, especially since he knew for a fact you’d called his name—Chris and not the latter. Though your brain didn’t remember him, your subconscious did, your heart did, your soul did. There was no room for anyone else. He nearly laughed in Christiano’s face because it had taken him this long to grasp that fully. There had only ever been you and him.
“You only have yourself to blame. Who would dare cheat on Uriah? Who would think to replace a diamond with a pebble? You’re an idiot,” Christiano jabbed before he laughed out. “Don’t worry, once we’re married, things will be better for her.”
“How do you plan on getting married if we’re still legally married?”
For the second time, the smile Christiano wore slipped. He looked around as if he expected someone to come out.
“For now,” Christiano scoffed, rolling his eyes.
He couldn’t help but smile when he saw you walking up behind Christiano. Catching on, he spun around.
“Babe, what’re—what’re you doing here? I thought we were meeting tonight.”
Christiano approached you with his arms out, but you walked past him to his waiting arms instead. Once he wrapped his arm around your waist, you kissed his lips, then turned to Christiano, who looked confused, angry, and a few other emotions he most likely hadn’t put together yet.
“For always,” you said.
“What the fuck!”
“Surprise,” he said, slipping his hand down to your hip. Christiano’s eyes dropped to his hand before he clenched his jaw. The annoyance from minutes ago was worth it.
“What was the plan, Christiano? It’s bigamy to be married to two people at once. Our marriage would have been null in void. What was the goal!?”
Christiano took a step to you, making him grip your hip tighter, ready to get in between you.
“I’m better than him. I’m richer, I look better, and I’m better in bed. Admit it, Riah. I don’t lose to men like him. I wasn’t done with you,” Christiano confessed with bitterness in his voice.
You pulled from him, taking a step to Christiano. “So you decided to turn me into a pawn! You decided to lie to me, manipulate me and—rape me?!”
“Shut up, I didn’t--,” he began before you cut him off.
“Yes, you did! I was not of sound mind. I didn’t know what I was doing. I didn’t even know who I was. You knew. You fucking knew, and you used that and stole from me. Admit it!”
Sensing things were about to go south, he stepped between the two of you, pulling back to a safe distance.
“That’s right, fuck it! Yes, I did all of that. I’ll admit it. Yes, I manipulated you to get what I wanted. I couldn’t lose to this dick. I couldn’t let you go. I wouldn’t. I did what was necessary. I took what was mine, and I don’t regret it. I’d do it again.”
That was all he could stomach before he turned and decked him with all the force he possessed. Christiano dropped to the dirt and writhed for a few moments before he slowly stood laughing like a lunatic with the blood dripping from his nose.
“You’re insane. You tried to kill my children because I ended things and found better?”
“There is no better than me!”
He spread his arms out, not caring where the blood that spewed from him went. “Uriah, you know you love me. You loved the feel of a real man between your legs. Just tell him.”
Glancing at you, he realized you were crying now.
“I can’t believe you’d do this to me. I can’t believe you’d hurt me this way.”
He wrapped his arms around you, hoping to comfort you in some way. Looking back at Christiano, he was in time to see him charging toward him. He quickly moved you out of the way and threw a punch that connected with Christiano’s jaw. Instead of going down, Christiano lunged at him, gripping him around his waist, trying to bring him down to the ground. He almost laughed. Sending his knee into his gut, he spun and put Christiano in a chokehold keeping him there.
It was then a group of police officers came running toward them.
“Look at that. You lost, not just once, but twice and now—a third.”
He wanted to snap his neck, and thinking of everything he’d put them through, he almost did. Two officers ran up to him, both of them taking Christiano by his arms.
“We’ve got it from here.”
Reluctantly he let Christiano go and allowed the law to take the wheel. Going to you, he cupped your cheeks and wiped your tears.
“I’m here.”
You hugged him, and he just held you. There was no need for words.
-That Night-
“I love you.”
Those words were like music to his ears. There was a time he didn’t think he’d ever hear them again. Gently pulling your head back, he peered into your eyes while caressing your cheek. He loved seeing you like this with your hair free, hovered over him, with the moon as your backdrop.
“I love you more,” he whispered.
“Forever and a day?”
He smiled, remembering your promises, and pressed his forehead to yours. “Forever and a day, dragonfly.”
You kissed him softly, taking the time to tease his lips, nibbling his bottom one before burying your face in the crook of his neck as you rocked against him, sending him higher and higher until he felt as if his soul left his body.
“Uriah!”
It felt like he was no longer in his body but instead hovering overhead like a fly watching your bodies entangled together. There was no other sight he loved as much. You rolled off of him and found your place beside him, resting your head on his chest, right over his heart. You both sighed.
“After this is done, let’s go back to Massachusetts full time,” you quietly said after a few minutes.
“What?” he turned to look at you, needing to see if you meant it.
“Do you mean that?”
“Yeah. I never wanted to raise kids in LA, and you know I love Massachusetts. Let’s have these babies in the house you built for us,” you added.
He couldn’t believe his ears. It wasn’t that you’d ever expressed not wanting to live in Massachusetts full time; it was that he knew how much of your career was still in LA. With him, he was spending less and less time here, but you, it seemed it was more and more.
“How is that going to work with your career?”
You rolled slightly onto your side, then trailed your hand across his chest down his stomach to rest nonchalantly atop his manhood. Groaning, he wrapped one of his arms under his head.
“I’m taking a few years off.”
The shock had his junk jumping in your hand, making a wide smile spread across your face. “Wow, talk about talent,” you teased.
He rolled you onto your back and climbed on top of you, nestling himself between your spread thighs.
“Don’t play with me, Mrs. Evans.”
You smiled widely as you fondled him with one hand. Not being strong enough to have this conversation while you did that, he grabbed your hand and pressed it over your head, gripping you at your wrist.
“No fair,” you pouted.
“Say that again.”
You smiled, clearly loving that fact he was hanging by a flimsy piece of thread.
“I said I’m taking a few years off.”
He couldn’t stop his grin. “Really?”
“Yeah. What do you think? Would you want that?”
“You’re kidding. Of course, yes! It would be just the two of us day in, day out. No movie sets, no studio time, no photoshoots.”
“Eh-em, excuse you. You mean just the five of us,” you corrected.
It didn’t take him long to get it. You, him, babies, and Dodger.
“I love you, Mrs. Evans.”
“I love you, Mr. Evans.”
You kissed him once, then twice before your hands roamed down his back to grip his ass, making him moan and chuckle at the same time. He’d missed this and you.
“Hang on, baby; I gotta--,” he began.
“Ah, that after nut pee calls, huh. Fine. Go ahead. I'll just be here, pregnant and horny.”
He snorted and rolled off of you before hurrying to the bathroom.
“Oh, I’m coming back, cause—that sounds like a very pressing situation that needs my undivided attention.”
You giggled as he dipped into the bathroom. He hurried to the toilet and tried his best to aim properly but an erection and peeing straight made for a tricky situation. Once he’d gotten the hang of it and the common sense to curve his body a little, he was good and groaned long and loud as he relieved himself. The silence in the bathroom gave him the time to fully react to the prospect of moving back to Massachusetts full time for the next few years. He couldn’t wait. Life was about to change for the better.
Once finished, he flushed and washed his hands before stepping back into the room. He expected you to be lying on the bed, waiting for him, but the bed was empty. Thinking you might have found your way to the kitchen for a snack, he pulled his pajama pants off the floor and pulled them on before he walked out of the bedroom. He’d recently discovered that after sex, you craved something from the fridge. He walked down the hall leading to the staircase, but before he got there, a chill ran down his spine. It was this chill and almost like a psychic feeling that had him stop.
When he turned, there you stood in your pale pink kimono robe with Christiano behind you. His hand was around your neck, clasping it.
“What the--.” He made a move toward them, but Christiano pulled out a gun and pointed it to your stomach.
“I wouldn’t,” he began before he cocked the weapon. “Or I will pull this trigger, and there goes Evan Jr.”
Terror as he’d never felt before gripped his heart. “You wouldn’t risk her life.”
Christiano shoved the barrel of the gun more forcefully into your stomach, making you whimper loudly.
“Wouldn’t I? what’s the point of keeping her safe now? For her to end up with you? I think the fuck not!” Again he shoved the gun into you.
“Okay, hey, hey, stop. Don’t do this. Please.”
“Please?” Christiano snorted and pulled you more firmly against him. “Are you begging me finally? You’ve always been underneath me. I couldn’t understand why she would choose you over me. I’m better in every category.”
He nodded, with his hands raised.
“You’re right. You’re the better man, the better choice,” he agreed, deciding to play along and say whatever he wanted if it meant Uriah had a chance of getting away from him. He quickly tried to formulate a plan while he used his words to buy himself as much time as possible.
“I know! So why him, Uriah!?”
You remained quiet, tears streaming down your cheeks.
“Answer me! You better answer me with the truth, or I swear I’ll pull this trigger.”
“Answer hi, Dragonfly. It’s okay. Forever and a day.”
You scrunched your face and watched fresh heartbreak wash over you. “I—I fell in love with him, Tino. My soul recognized his as my home. It could only ever be him,” you replied. He signaled to you using his eyes and slight movements of his head, and he hoped you understood them.
He watched Christiano squeeze your neck tighter and press the gun more persistently into you, and he said a silent prayer.
“Fine,” Christiano began. He saw the moment when it all changed for him, and his threats no longer were empty words. “If I can’t have you. No one can.”
“Now, Riah!”
You threw your head back, colliding yours with his in a vicious headbutt that sent Christiano staggering backward a few steps and you stumbling before falling to the floor. In the chaos, Christiano dropped the gun allowing him to leap forward for the gun. In seconds Christiano was on him, fighting him for it. He tried to pull it from his clutches while turning it away from him or Uriah, but there was no fury like a man who’d lost everything.
Christiano managed to wrangle the gun from his grasp and pointed it to Uriah. In the blink of an eye, he knew what had to be done—the only thing he could do. Locking eyes with you, he said the only thing that mattered.
“I love you.”
He then dove for Christiano tracking him into the banister railing with enough force that broke it, sending both of them over the edge and down two and a half stories to the hard marble floor beneath. He could hear your piercing scream right before they collided with the floor, but once they made impact, the gun went off, and again Uriah screamed.
“Chris!”
~~~~~~~~~
-Uriah-
It all had happened in such a way that it was in slow motion but sped up. You couldn’t register anything until it was all said and done. You scurried to the banister and looked down. Neither of them moved, and your heart stopped. Gasping, you tried to remind your brain to send the signal for you to breathe. After a few seconds, you coughed while trying to hurry down the stairs. The tears in your eyes made it difficult to see what was in front of you, so you stumbled down the stairs. If it weren’t for your gripping the railing as you descended, you were sure you would have tumbled.
Once down to them, you dropped to your knees beside them and pulled at Chris’s body. He wasn’t moving.
“Oh god, Chris!”
He didn’t respond, and his body felt like dead weight. Your tears flowed more freely as you managed to roll him off. Once you had, you were able to see that it was Christiano who was shot and not Chris. Relief filled you, and you shook him more forcefully.
“Chris! Wake up, please. Please don’t leave me. Chris!”
Suddenly he erupted into a fit of choughs before they died down.
“Why are you always shouting at me, woman!?”
You gasped again. “Oh my god! You scared the shit out of me.”
“I’m okay. I think,” he informed while trying to sit up. He then began examining you.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes.”
He then gripped his head as he groaned out, but it wasn’t long before he was moving toward you to pull you into his arms, not caring that he was covered in blood.
“Is he—is he dead?”
Chris leaned back to check Christiano’s pulse, then lowered his head. “Very dead.”
You clasped your hands over your mouth. “Oh my god. He—he tried--.”
Chris pulled you into him and hugged you tightly. “Come here. It’s okay.”
Somehow he managed to slide both of you from the body on the floor toward the wall. He held you tightly, then spoke.
“I don’t think I’ll call you crazy again after this.”
It was probably inappropriate, but you snorted then laughed, a laugh he joined in on. As suddenly as the laughter began, it ended.
“They’re crazy.”
“Bat shit,” Chris replied.
Any humor to be found in the situation was gone, and it turned into you crying in his shoulder, going through all the emotions from the entire night. There had been so much pain, so much destruction. You’d come close to losing everything more than once, and the culprit was lying dead on the floor before you. It was overwhelming, but somehow, you felt steeled to the fact that you’d just watched someone die.
You glanced over to Chris at the same moment he looked at you. He wiped the tears from your cheeks then spoke.
“I’d do it again in a heartbeat.” He then lowered his lips to your forehead and held you close.
Ten minutes later, the sirens of the police, ambulance, and fire trucks could be heard as they surrounded your property. The officers instantly took yours and Chris’s statements and any evidence lying around to prove what the two of you were professing, including the security footage. The EMS workers quickly covered Christiano’s body with a sheet as they rolled him into a body bag then pushed the gurney out of the house. You barely registered anything. Chris did most of the talking, not leaving one thing out. When they asked you about the events of the night, you stuttered and quickly became frazzled as everything finally caught up to you. That was when the detective Chris hired suggested meeting at the police station to continue, which would allow him to reveal his findings in his investigation.
After a quick change, you were sitting in the passenger side of Chris’s car as he drove you to the precinct. Your mind raced a mile a minute, but your lips remained zipped. The feel of Chris’s hand on your thigh was your tangible evidence that this was reality and not some soap opera plot. When you arrived at the precinct, the detective in charge of the case questioned you from the very beginning to the night's events. You did your best to remain calm and emotionless and were surprised that you didn’t feel the shame you’d felt about the entire situation prior to this night.
When the detective revealed new information divulged to him, from the detective Chris hired, about Christiano and what he’d truly been up to and how deep his plans really went, you could hardly stomach it. He’d secured another property in Russia and planned to bring you there. The way the information was revealed, it seemed like he planned on keeping you captive there. Hearing that, you almost passed out. Chris, on the other hand, looked like he was ready to kill Christiano again.
The questioning took a full hour, and at the end of it, you were exhausted and ready to put this entire thing behind you after dealing with Ana. With Chris’s arm around your waist, you walked out of the detective’s office onto the precinct's open floor. A loud scream brought your attention to several officers pulling Ana through with her hands cuffed behind her back.
“I demand you let me go. Do you know who I am!? I swear to god, I will have your badge, and you’ll never be a fucking cop again!”
“Wow, the mouth on her,” one of the officers teased.
“To think we found her hot in that Bond movie,” another piped up.
“Fuck you!”
You and Chris approached, curious as to what was going on. You hadn’t expected to see her until tomorrow when you and Chris executed the second part of your plan of confronting her while recording it to release it to the world, showing everyone who and what she really was. It would have been a one-two hit that she wouldn’t recover from. Her career would have been over.
“It’s been a big night,” the detective who’d just interviewed you said, standing beside you.
“I don’t understand. What’s going on? Why’s she here?”
“Your detective gave us plenty of information. By the way, impressive man, you should think about keeping him on your payroll. Anyway, we followed his leads, and it led right to her and her assistant, specifically her assistant’s car. This one took her assistant’s car and was the one behind the wheel when she ran into you. The traffic cams show it was an intentional hit.”
You saw red.
“What!”
“She tried to kill you,” Abel, the private detective, added, coming up beside Chris.
“What’s more, there were messages between her and Christiano White.”
Both yours and Chris’s heads spun to him to the police detective this time to find him nodding with a look on his face that said even he hadn’t encountered anything this bizarre before.
“They concocted this whole scheme together, beginning with the pictures of her in that eat shit sweater. This was set up with them. there is even evidence Christiano was poisoning you, Mrs. Evans.”
“Jesus,” Chris hissed.
You remained utterly silent and still letting Abel’s words fully process. It was a lot of information, but it was also vindication that you were in no shape or form crazy.
“Wh—what does all this mean?”
“It means she’s going to face a judge on a slew of charges that are quite serious. I can assure you both; there is no easy way of her getting out of any of this. No amount of money or connections will fix it. Her career is over,” the detective finished.
You both were speechless, and looking at Chris, he was too. You and Chris were led to somewhere you could sit for a few minutes to receive the paperwork for the night’s incident and the new information. While sitting, you used the time to catch your breath and wrap your head around everything. Neither of you could believe all you’d gone through. The more you thought about it, the more your confusion increased. One burning questioned remained. Why?
About ten minutes later, you and Chris were led toward the exit, but you caught sight of Ana to your right. You would have walked on, but the way she glared at you had you changing your mind in seconds. You let go of Chris’s hand and walked over to her.
“I have to know. Why? What was the point!?”
Ana bolted to her feet as if she planned to do something, but the officer behind her grabbed her arm, holding her to ensure she didn’t try anything. You weren’t worried.
“You don’t deserve anything you have. The fame, the popularity, and opportunities you don’t deserve any of it, especially Chris. He was supposed to be mine. That baby was supposed to be mine!”
You could hear the poison in her voice and see the sheer hatred for you shining brightly in her eyes. She truly meant this though she didn’t know one thing about you.
“You’re crazy as fuck. I hope it was worth it.” You reached back for Chris’s hand, knowing he was behind you. Lacing your fingers with his, you showed her all that her efforts had produced, then turned and began walking away.
“You low-grade black bitch!
In your head, you heard blaring sirens. The sound became so loud in a matter of seconds it had somewhat of a mind-altering effect. Chris released your hand as if he knew what was going to happen. You turned back to her and saw red.
“Oh I’ll show you how low grade this black bitch is!”
You ran to her, then tackled her to the floor. Once on top of her, you swung punch after punch, each slamming into her face. You didn’t care where they landed, didn’t care how hard you were hitting her either. There was a lesson she needed to learn, and the only way to learn it was getting her ass beat the right way—the black way. You felt hands trying to pull you off of her, but you were not having it. You held on to her hair, so when they tried to move you, they really helped you bald the bitch.
“See, I never learned to share when I was young! I’m—an—only—child!” With each enunciated word, you emphasized it with a punch. Ana’s screams were loud, but they weren’t louder than those alarms still sounding off in your head. Though she tried to fight back, it was futile, though.
“Learn this bitch! Don’t,” you dropped a punch to her nose. “Touch,” you slapped her with your open hand. “What,” you slapped her again, this time with the back of your hand. “is mine!”
From then, no one else tried to pull you off of her. You suspected it was Chris warning them. You managed to get off a few more punches when you were finally pulled off.
“Let me go!”
“Okay, calm down, Adonis Creed, that’s enough,” Chris shouted, trying to break through to you. You still struggled trying to get back to her, but Chris refused to let you go until you calmed down. You looked at Ana on the floor. She was barely moving, and her face was a bloody mess with several patches of her dark hair sprinkled around her. Satisfaction filled you. Raising your hand, you assured Chris you were good. Slowly he let you go, and you stooped down to her.
“Look at me.”
You waited for her writhing to stop and for her bloody, swollen eyes to land on you.
“Remember my name for the rest of your pathetic life. Remember that I’m that bitch!”
You grabbed her hair and held her head. “Try this shit again; you gonna lose your life.”
With that, you punched her one more time, knocking her clear out. Everyone around the precinct shouted out a collective “ooh.” You stood and walked away as they all cleared your path, most likely thinking you were crazy. Chris came beside you, took your hand, and walked back to the car with you. Once inside, you both sat there, silently processing everything. Five minutes passed in silence until you spoke.
“She did all this over dick, Chris. Dick,” you said in disbelief as you shook your head.
“I mean—my dick is A1.”
Your head spun to him. “Christopher!”
He laughed out loud while holding his hands up in defeat.
“Hey, don’t beat my ass too, I don’t want none,” Chris joked, making you laugh a little.
“Wow, remind me not to piss you off again. I don’t want any of what she got.”
You fake lunged at him with your still bloodied fists. “Don’t start none, won’t be none.”
Both of you erupted with laughter before you embraced, relishing in the feeling of togetherness and your love. It was finally over; you thought as Chris pressed a soft kiss to your neck.
“Let’s get the fuck out of this town,” Chris suggested. You snorted and nodded.
“Let’s go home.”
Knowing where you meant, Chris smiled and kissed you once, then twice.
“Let’s,” he whispered.

Random Characters with Singer S/O HC (...cause I can...):
Characters: Dick Grayson (YJ Robin), Tim Drake, Damian Wayne, Bart Allen, Garfield Logan (YJ), Kon Kent (90’s), Random One (Batsib)
Dick Grayson (YJ Robin):
· You were John Constantine’s apprentice and daughter
· Since it’s cannon that he was in a band, imma say it, you can probably sing
· You grew up searching the world for your father since you were raised some by your mother until you fled her (demon mom) and ended up searching the world and practicing your magic with people that knew who you were based on your parents
· You gained skills playing all sorts of things
· The first time that John heard you was in your bedroom listening to music
· Well he thought you were listening to music
· You were actually playing guitar and singing
· He was shocked and eventually you got to show him all of the songs you were actually playing guitar in
· He took you to a recording studio one day for the hell of it and BOOM
· You were off
· Now about the team, you wore a mask just because of who you were
· It was technically a magic mask and just kind of like a mind blur thing where if people already knew both sides of you, they’d know who you are but if it was someone new, they would just know you by your hero name
· Pretty practical
· So, when you had gotten big, you made sure not to sing or do anything that would give it off
· But one day when you thought that the cave was empty, you had an idea for a song and just sang it into your phone
· Then you started singing one of your own songs while making lunch cause you were bored
· Robin heard
· “Wait... WAIT”
· You had that look that John does when he wants to roll his eyes and throw his head back in exasperation but if he did he’d die
· “bullocks.” That was all that came out of your mouth
· You told him, he knew, it was kind of just a thing
· Now once you guys were dating, and even before, he’d go to every. single. concert (that you played near Gotham or where he was at least)
· Loudest in the crowd
· Got VIP seating
· He’d be the one that knew ALL of the lyrics
· Definitely not because he was a big fan before he knew .... oh no... “totally not”
· He’s your date to every single event
· Interviews together
· When he takes you to galas, you’re both outshining everyone
· You let him listen to every single song that you put on albums first since it’s important
· John got jealous over that
· Dick knows that some of the pyro that you have at shows is actually magic and that’s why it’s so cool
· If there’s anything that’s like a hologram that flies over the crowd, he knows that that’s you
· I think as a given, everyone in this wears your merch even if it’s a bit
· If I say anything about it it’s cause they wear it a lot
Tim Drake:
· You two met at one of your own concerts
· You were on tour and he got a VIP meet and greet pass
· He was so nervous but really excited at the same time cause he didn’t want to screw up and look like an idiot
· You two talked longer than you were supposed to actually
· In the end, the two of you managed to exchange numbers
· He almost died
· When he got home he was smiling so wide Dick had to know what happened
· Even Bruce commented on it
· Dick squealed when he found out
· BIGGGG time
· You and Tim immediately started texting back and forth
· First of all, you texted first since Tim was too nervous he’d bother you
· You didn’t really know where to start so you guys just talked
· That night you just knew this was going to be something good
· You kept the relationship under wraps for a few months
· Not until the two of you were comfortable with everything
· Eventually, you went out for a gala and the media was blowing up
· It was like an explosion
· Tim was hesitant to take you to meet his family but you all got along very well
· Even you and Damian
· He complimented your skill
· Everyone almost fell over dead
· He loves to listen to your music
· You are both up at inhuman hours working
· Tim likes to have you by humming or quietly singing to something in your earbuds
· Sometimes you’ll just interrupt the silence and ask if a line sounds good
· He almost always says yes and if he doesn’t, he gives a suggestion on a change
· He’ll come and watch videos be filmed which is always cool to him
· Comes to every show
· You guys hate being far away from each other for too long anyways
· Eventually, you’ll get a penthouse in Gotham and move in together
· Has the best security just in-case
· It also has a recording studio built in
· It isn’t uncommon for one of his brothers to drop in
· He is always a blushing mess when a song is about him
· It’s pretty funny to you
· Likes to listen to you play an acoustic version
· Those are his favorite no matter how much he likes the original
· He will also help you pick out singles
· Sometimes if you’re playing one he’ll just stop and say single and you know what he means
· One time you were at the studio and doing a soundtrack song for a movie with another singer and the two of you killed it
· The high notes were your best and Tim was floored
· You laughed a ton at his reaction
· “I didn’t know you could do that.”
“Surprise Timmy.”
· You have sweatpants in your merch just because you know he’ll always wear them
· You also have coffee mugs and tumblers because you know he’ll use them
Damian Wayne:
· You both grew up in the LoA
· You were his second hand from the start and also a top general
· Got to leave to go on tons of missions
· Before you’d leave, his only demand or request (after some time) was that you came back with a song that played from the outside
· You always did
· At night, you’d softly sing them on the rooftops looking out at the stars at night
· He wouldn’t admit it but those were his favorite nights
· After a mission, that was when the compound was attacked
· You and Damian were swept off your feet
· Into this new place with Bruce
· You had learned to play piano very well so once you found that there was one, you were attached to it if it wasn’t training
· Coping mechanism for you
· Damian would hear it sometimes
· Eventually you made your first record and skyrocketed
· You were lo-key kind of terrified from the attention thinking it would get you killed somehow
· Spoiler alert
· It didn’t
· Some of the songs you wrote were so sad and dark that in interviews when you’d be asked about it, you’d have to just straight up lie
· You can’t just talk about being an assassin for your entire life and the repercussions of that
· You’d say it was inspired by the moral compass of characters you read about
· Damian knows what all of the songs are about since he grew up with you
· In school, you got tons of attention and hated it
· That was because you knew that none of those people were real
· Not at all
· When you and Damian went public a good percentage of the population at Gotham Academy was mad since they wanted to date you
· Not for any reason but money a lot of the times of course
· The press thought you two were really cute
· You both also intimidated the hell out of everyone
· No one really knew why it was just your demeanor
· Late at night on the rooftops of the manor or even just the fields outside of Gotham is where you sing new songs to him
· He loves it and admits it
· You guys have the best conversations there
· It’s something you look forward to every day
· At shows, he sings along to the songs
· When you wave to or wink at him he blushes and tries to hold in a smile but fails terribly
· There’s always a video of it somewhere
· If you get even a tiny bit of emotional on stage, he gets that way too
· He understands all too well
· Loves to go to the studio with you if you invite him
· He says he likes every single song but you can tell which ones he likes best by his reactions
· Those are a dead giveaway
· If he gets that sad look, you know you’ve written a good song
· If he gets a gleam in his eyes, you know you’ve written a good single or peppy song and it goes like that for everything
Bart Allen:
· You met right before the Outsiders phase
· Just joining the team, you were a seriously famous singer and a metahuman
· Everyone knew since you were open about it
· Bart thinks you’re really cool
· Listens to your music all the time but will never admit it and if he’s caught especially by you, he’ll be an embarrassed mess
· When you were dating it was pretty public
· He loves going out with you and showing off
· It’s just kind of his thing to do that
· You always think it’s funny or you roll your eyes jokingly
· Either way he will do it without fail
· Goes to all of your shows
· You know that one person at big concerts that are lit up in lights screaming the lyrics?
· That’s Bart
· You cannot change my mind otherwise
· Will actively try and make you laugh onstage but not mess up
· Oh no
· He would never
· Now he just openly jams out to your music which at first was kind of awkward walking into but you got used to it
· He likes it when you just randomly start singing
· When you two leave the base, you end up getting your own place pretty close to it
· Just not too close
· Team listening parties to new songs
· Some are just really sad and no one has dry eyes since they might be about missions or the aftermath of them
· Watching the number of buys just sky rocket on an album’s release day is the most fun
· Once you hit every thousand or so it gets really fun
· It’s like a race in the sense that everyone is just pumped and wants it to surpass the last number of buys and streams from your last album
· If Lex or someone criticizes the Outsiders for whatever reason, your fans are on it like crazy
· You started an organization and another safe house for meta teens
· Helped give funds to add another wing to the Star Labs base for the kids
· Everything got updated with that as well
· Benefit concerts for them
· Once the meta teens get a grip on their powers, they get free passes to the concerts and VIP passes
· You also drop by often to hang out with them
Garfield Logan (YJ):
· You had both known each other before Outsiders
· You got along really well and were best friends
· M shipped you guys along with everyone else and when that ship sailed, she was over the moon
· Okay so when you got big, it was a bit before his acting career kicked off
· The two of you paved the way for meta teens coming out as metas
· It was a MASSIVE deal to have someone like you in the music industry and then Gar in the film world
· Both go to award shows together
· It’s pretty fun
· When he decided that he wanted to cut back from acting more and more, you were supporting him through and through
· He thinks that it’s cool that there are songs about it
· They’re not too unobvious either
· You have interviews together but have both decided that Grant is annoying and she is pretty obnoxious sometimes
· Same with a lot of the other interviewers
· They just want to know about EVERYTHING
· No stone left unturned
· You got to do music for one of the movies he was in which was really cool
· You were both at the premier walking the carpet
· Met galas anyone?
· The public’s favorite couple of all time
· There’s no doubt about it
· You wear each other’s merch
Kon Kent (90’s):
· You probably did more indie and alternative which he thought was really cool
· You were one of the only newer artists that he really liked
· One day you just run into each other
· He doesn’t know what to do for a second cause internally, he’s freaking out
· Eventually, you pull him into a different building to avoid the mob of people
· Of course, people see but it didn’t headline the next day which was amazing
· “Sorry about that. I just figure the mob of people and pap aren’t worth standing outside for.” You said looking outside from behind a shelf of the store.
“N-no, it’s fine.” He replied running a hand through his hair.
“Oh, you’re Superboy, I’m Y/N.”
“You can just call me Kon.”
· While he was at it, he got your number too
· You guys actually spent a decent amount of time talking in the store before leaving separately
· He texted first telling you he liked the album that you had dropped
· From there, after a few days he asked you out which you were totally down for
· Then when everything went public, there was no breathing room if you left your place or any other private property
· He would go to all of your shows and be hit on by the locals
· Not your fans though
· Ohhhhhhhhh no
· You’d tease him about it sometimes but if you could tell he was just dying in the crowd because of girls or boys, you jokingly call it out from stage
· Think Harry Styles kind of calling it out
· It’s those vibes and attitude
· SOMETIMES he might loudly call a thank you or something funny that makes everyone laugh
· Then the show goes on as normal
· He sits in your dressing room during meet and greets most of the time
· You’ve got his favorite snacks in there because of this
· When you go to events like the Grammys or Teen Choice, you take over the red carpet
· Everyone goes wild
· It’s kind of nerve wracking but easier when he’s having to go through the same deal lol
· The couple that wears disguises sometimes
· It’s nothing too big, it is enough however
· He teases you if you wear a wig or something
· Vacations with no press or anything are amazing
· They also keep you sane
· Wears your merch
Random One (Batsib):
· Your entire family is on board with this
· They support you throughout the entire thing
· You have a hit debut album and tour for the next one
· Eventually, Bruce will let you homeschool which is amazing for you since the people at Gotham Academy know no limits to weird
· Someone literally tried to ghost write a song for you and then stuffed it into your locker before you were there
· You knew immediately
· It’s not that hard
· During interviews they’re in the background as moral support
· Extra attention from press at galas
· Thankfully not really the old rich people though

· They and your oldest brother are publicly your biggest fans
· Bruce is secretly your number 1 fan though
· Plays the songs at the watchtower when he’s working sometimes
· You know this
· Everyone does
· It just happens and you’re not complaining
· Especially when Billy Batson found out about you
· Part of Batman’s group AND a superstar
· You do still typically do the vigilante thing but not as much on tour
· It’s hard since you actively are trying NOT to die even harder since you kind of are a world -wide sensation
· On tours, your family is the LOUDEST group in the crowd
· No doubt
· They try and make you laugh on stage
· When you do, you’ll call them for it sometimes
· *Brothers yelling something at the stage when you respond trying to roast you*
· “That’s pretty rich coming from batarang ass lookin hairline over there.”
· Or it might be something like, “Wait, what did you say? Sorry I can’t hear you over the 15,000 other people that are here watching my show.”
· Those are the best moments
· Hands down
· If anyone goes after you on Twitter or something, they’re goners
· They’re going to have a million other Batfam members and even leaguers coming for them
· It’s pretty hilarious to see Clark Kent write an editorial on why a person was wrong and why your album was superior to all
· Wonder Woman saying she listened to your music
· *passes out*
· Not that you didn’t already, know, you were just in awe of her lol

tw : things like shitty controlling parents , injury , & pregnancy are mentioned
born & raised in nashville , tennessee , madison is the daughter of two country music icons ( basically blake shelton & miranda lambert ) & has only ever known a life in the spotlight . her parents were a widely adored it couple who shared their lives with millions of viewers across the world with their reality tv show . at 7pm cst you could tune in to watch robbie & dixie raise their two daughters - having some good ol’ wholesome family fun while juggling responsibilities that come with being famous artists . to any outsider looking in , they seemed like the perfect family . a loving father , a supportive mother , two prim & proper daughters that collected accolade after accolade in every pageant & talent competition they ever entered . but you shouldn’t believe everything you see on tv , even if it’s deceptively labeled as “reality” .
when the cameras weren’t rolling , the darling sisters were left under their mother’s restrictive control . dixie darling treated her daughters more like dolls than living beings , madison & delaney were basically pretty little accessories . while robbie never dared to mistreat his daughters , he was around a lot less than the show made it seem - often touring the world rather than spending quality time with his girls . plus , dixie & robbie seemed to endlessly fight with one another - nearly every childhood memory madison has of her parents involves them yelling . if she wanted to see them looking happy & in love , she’d have to tune in to the fabricated reality on their own show to get a taste of what a happy , loving family looks like .
you can’t be a child of dixie darling without being exploited in some way . while delaney was pushed into the music scene , madison was shoved into the world of dance . she took every class that was offered & practiced for hours upon hours to perfect her craft . her sister had taken after their folks with the singing voice of an angel & the looks to rival that of miss universe , meanwhile maddie was good for two things : dance & doing whatever her mother said . so when dixie said to twirl , she twirled , when she said do a grand jeté, maddie asked how high & then over performed like the good little girl she was trained to be .
it wasn’t until her parents got divorced & maddie moved to miami to be with her sister , her father , & her father’s new girlfriend that she sort of came out ( or more accruately described as dragged out ) of her timid , non - confrontational , subservient shell . with a longer leash , she had more freedom to roam far & wide . no one tried to tell her what to do or who to talk to & considering she was just a privileged teenager with endless funds & the status to get away with just about anything , you can imagine how badly that went . every mistake she made was broadcasted onto people’s televisions or headlined in tabloids . it was stressful , growing up & messing up all under the watchful gaze of millions of people who felt entitled to berate her for her poor life decisions . just because they watched her grow up on tv didn’t mean they actually knew anything about her . & yet so many people shared their unsolicited opinions on her & her life . it drove her insame .
maddie wasn’t handling the stress of being well known very well . she wanted a break from it all , to just go somewhere far away where no one knew her name & just live by herself . it was a silly dream . nothing she’d ever actively pursue . but the universe has a funny way of giving us a taste of what we think we want just to teach us a lesson .
so over a year ago , maddie found out that she was pregnant . it was a shock to say the least . she kept it a close guarded secret from everyone but her sister for awhile . not only was it a life changing development , but it was one thing that she was determined not to share with the rest of the world . with the idea of running away in continuous loop in the back of her mind , she came up with a plan to buy herself some time . she faked a really bad injury during a performance & let the media run with saying she might not be able to walk , let alone dance ever again . pushing the cover story even further , she claimed to be in need of intense physical therapy & sought after it in a luxurious private lodge in new zealand . that’s where she stayed during her year away , letting no outsiders come visit while she figured out how she was going to move forward with this baby growing inside of her .
so maddie finally got the break she was looking for even if it wasn’t under the circumstances that she would’ve liked . but she adapted to the situation . in her time away , she went through the entire pregnancy but it was basically decided for her by her parents that it was best to give the baby up for adoption . the little girl would be in good care by a couple that was a family friend of the darlings . better to bless someone who wanted a baby but couldn’t have one than for maddie to keep her daughter when she wasn’t in a place to take care of her . it broke her heart , honestly . she had grown quite attached to the baby & even entertained the idea of being a single mom even though she knew her own mom would never let that happen - it would go against the strict narrative that they try to put out there about the darling family .
after a year away , maddie is back in miami without anyone knowing what really happened . she keeps using the “injury” as the excuse for her absence from the spotlight . anyone really close to her might be able to tell that something’s off , but she’s trying so hard to act like everything is fine & nothing has changed at all . she might even be able to get away with her lies - if it wasn’t for that damn 786 website threatening to spill the tea & make her life hell .
━━ ˊ * 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 & 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬 . .
a wannabe good girl gone bad but harbors a deep rooted fear of being a disappointment & a failure due to her mom’s strict parenting style . so like she wants to be rebellious & come across as carefree but internally she’s panic screaming always ( honestly relatable like same , girl )
well - mannered in a sweet southern belle kind of way with her please’s & thank you’s & calling everyone ma’am & sir out of respect & what not
biiiig mom friend energy . she just wants to make sure that everyone is taken care of . she can get very protective & a little helicopter parent-y with her friends . it probably has something to do with control issues that she doesn’t realize she has but we don’t have time to unpack that rn akjsdbk
before her year away i want to say that she was a lot more people please-y / overly eager to please ?? like rarely said no to people that asked for favors , always agreed to any plans people invited her to out of courtesy , & what have you . but now i see her as being a little less patient than before & a little bit more unhinged & quick to shut down or snap
guillable ! naive ! dumb as hell ! believes that everyone was raised with the same values as her & has a big of a heart like she does so she’s easily subjectable to getting her feelings hurt & i say let it happen !!
wants to be mysterious so bad but there is very little known about her & her life that isn’t public knowledge . she could get shit on by a bird & it’ll probably become a twitter highlight idk she just wants to believe she’s imperceptible & acts all evasive in order to keep her private life private but that rarely ever has the desired effect
one of those annoying rich & famous people that’s like “i wasn’t meant to be famous . i was meant to have a normal life & be a normal person” but like !! she is actually so out of touch with reality & probably couldn’t tell you how much milk is at the grocery store because she has people to do mundane day to day things for her . spoiled little privileged rich girl , let’s be real . her dad tried to keep her humble , idk what happened
dance style / career is pretty much inspired by maddie ziegler but also not really bc i am very picky & choosey about which aspects of her career i’m pulling from
boring on social media because she hardly ever posts & is very short with her captions & tweets when she does make an appearance online every blue moon
dodges questions about what she’s been up to while she was gone like she’s in the matrix or something . all that pr training her mom put her through when she was younger is coming in handy because she has not given a single honest , straight answer in the months she’s been back . would rather talk about anything else than herself right now so don’t be surprised if she pulls some random subject changes out of her ass if people get nosy . i’m sure the common conspiracy is that maddie was so embarrassed by the fall on stage that she went into hiding
delaney is the kim kardashian & britney spears of the family while madison is the kourtney & the jamie lynn xoxo

Summary: an important trip to deliver the last few barrels of hydrazine to becca’s island is met with some unexpected challenges.
a/n: the taglist for this series is open! I hope you enjoy, please let me know what you think!!!
previous chapter // season masterlist // series masterlist
March 20th, 2150; Arkadia (what’s left of it)
It’s late, or early, depending on how you look at it, when Kane pulls you, Bellamy, Clarke, and Monty into the Chancellor’s office for a quick update. “Most of the fire is out, and we’ve salvaged what we can. Monty, I need you to run diagnostics and do a damage check on all of Alpha Station, report back to me in the morning.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Griffin girls and Bellamy, I need the three of you to get some rest, because when daylight breaks, I'm sending the three of you out.”
“To do what?”
“Abby radioed. They discovered that Becca went to space to make Nightblood, because the lack of gravity helps everything to bind properly. Becca has a rocket in the lab, and they need all of the hydrazine we have to get that rocket into the air and back down again with the Nightblood solution. I need the three of you to deliver that hydrazine.”
All three of you nod in agreement, and he gives a single resolute nod. “Good. Now get some rest, I’ll see you in a few hours.”
“See you then.”
The three of you leave the office in a quiet group, silently walking back towards your rooms. Luckily, your room and Clarke’s are among the ones spared by the fire, though others weren’t so lucky. You feel guilt at the thought of walking back to your room and sleeping in your bed while others can't, but the soreness in your legs and feet prevents you from thinking about it much further. When you reach the junction in the hall that takes you your separate ways, Clarke pulls you into a hug and whispers, “I’m glad you’re okay.”
“Me too.”
She smiles at you both before turning and heading down the hall towards her room, and Bellamy reaches out for your hand and intertwines your fingers before leading you back to your shared quarters. The smell of smoke lingers in the air, despite sustaining no damage, reminding you of the blow you all received. You trudge into the room, exhausted, and as soon as Bellamy closes the door behind you, the weight of the world comes crashing down on you. Your near death experience, the realization that you’re a killer, the loss of Alpha Station's safety from the death wave, it all weighs down on you, and you drop to your knees.
The tears are falling from your face before your knees even make contact with the ground, and Bellamy is at your side in a flash. He doesn't say anything as a sob breaks free from your chest, he just pulls you into his arms and rubs comforting circles onto your back as he hums Clair de lune.
You stay like that for a long time, wrapped in each other’s arms on the floor of your home, crying for everything that happened today, yesterday, the week before, while on the ground, up in space. You cry until you’re utterly exhausted, slumped over in Bellamy’s grip, ready to fall asleep right then and there. But Bellamy, ever caring, doesn't allow that. He carries you over to the bed and sits you on the edge, before kneeling down in front of you to rid you of your boots. He tosses them to the side, before walking to your storage area and grabbing one of his spare shirts. He comes back to you and pulls off your jacket and then your shirt, before tugging his shirt down and over your head, wrapping you in his comforting scent. Then he gently eases you backwards and shimmies your pants down your legs, leaving you in peak comfort.
He quickly undresses down to his underwear before sliding into the bed beside you, tucking both of you under the blanket until you’re wrapped inside a cocoon of comfort. He turns until he’s facing you, his mouth lifting at the corners as he takes you in. Despite your swollen eyes and tear stained face, despite the quiet sniffles that slip from you, he whispers, “You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. That’s probably the first thing I ever noticed about you.”
Your nose scrunches, disbelieving, “Really?”
“Really. That and your strength. When I saw you in the hallway with Shumway that day, I could tell you were scared, but you didn't let that stop you. You took your fear and turned it into strength, and used it as a weapon against him.”
You feel yourself melt a little, and he reaches up and pushes back the hair around your face. “I’ll always be in awe of the anger you possess. I don't know how so much anger can exist in one person, but even when it was directed at me, I was always in awe of the electric energy that seems to reside within you. And despite having all that anger, you’re one of the kindest people I have ever known. It would be so easy for you to let your anger rule you until you are nothing but sharp edges and harsh words, but you don’t. You manage to see the good in everyone, even when they're trying to kill you.”
You shake your head. “Not with Pike.”
“That’s because he threatened your family, and that's an entirely different story. You’re loyal and fiercely protective over the ones you love. I pity anyone who threatens your family, because I know their outcome isn't favorable. Your kindness sometimes allows you to forgive others more than they may deserve, but that ends when it comes to your family.”
“You’re my family.”
He softens at the words, something unfamiliar to him in the last few years, as his family was torn apart. “And you’re mine.”
You smile at him, and he leans forward slightly, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead before pulling away to look at you again. “My blainen natshana, my protective spitfire, my love, my forever.”
“I love you, Bellamy Blake.”
“I love you more than the stars, in this lifetime, and in the next.”
“Forever.”
Both of you smile at each other, everything okay for a little while. Because for now, you can ignore the impending doom and the desolation of your home, everything blocked out by the strength of Bellamy’s love. You fall asleep smiling at each other, basking in that warmth, at peace and full of love.
-
Clarke looks at you, a mischievous look on her face, “Put it on.”
You eye the long sleeve top and gray overall dress, the same clothes she wears to school everyday. The clothes you've never been allowed to wear, because you’re not supposed to exist. You stare at your twin, at the missing tooth in the front of her smile, identical to the missing tooth in your own grin. The second Clarke saw the gap in your grin, she messed with her tooth everyday until it was loose enough to pull out, refusing to look any less identical than you do right now. Neither of you know it yet, but as you grow older, you’ll become less and less identical. Enough similarities remain that some people know, right off the bat, and some people only guess because they’ve heard the stories. But right now, in your youth, in the time before anything seems serious, you look like copies of each other. Any differences you have right now are so subtle, no one could tell the difference.
Which is exactly why Clarke is holding her school clothes out to you. “Just one day, la lune! You’ll get to see the Ark and meet Wells. It’s field trip day today, and we’re going on a tour of the ship, so no one will be paying any attention to you.”
“But then you’ll miss out on the field trip.”
“I’ve seen everything already, but you haven’t. You deserve to see the Ark.”
You eye the clothes again, before taking them from her grip. She gives you a triumphant smile as you dress quickly, and she changes into your clothes as soon as you’re out of them. Then she helps you braid your hair before turning you around to look at the small mirror you share. “I look just like you.”
Clarke laughs, loud and bright, her joy always so infectious. “Of course you do, we’re twins.”
You give her an annoyed look. “I know, but mom and dad can still tell us apart. Maybe this will actually fool them.”
“Stop worrying, this is foolproof.”
You start to counter her argument, but your mom bursts into the room, waving her hand towards you frantically. “Clarke, why aren't you out here, honey? We’re going to be late.”
“Sorry mom.”
You walk towards her, waiting for her to notice that you’re not Clarke, but she never does. She takes your hand when you reach her, and leads you straight through the living room and to the front door. Once you’re out in the hall, her hand doesn't drop yours, and you relish in this small moment with your mother. Something so common for Clarke, because this is a walk they take together everyday, but so rare for you. You turn and look at every surrounding as you walk by, but you stop when your mom tugs on your hand and asks, “What’s wrong with you today?”
You don't get to answer, because a man turns the corner and starts walking down the hall, and your mom stiffens at the sight of him. She freezes in place when he stops in front of her. “Abby.”
“Marcus. Heading to the meeting?”
“Yes. Are you?”
She motions towards you. “I have to drop Clarke off first, and then I’ll be right there. If I’m a little late, start without me.”
“I’ll pass the message along.” The man, Marcus, turns his attention to you. “Clarke, I heard there’s a field trip today, a tour of the Ark and its jobs?”
“Yes, sir.”
“I’m sure you’re looking forward to seeing the Medical Facility, since Abby here says you want to be a doctor.”
“I don’t want to be a doctor.” You pull a face and add, “Besides, I want to see the library.”
Marcus gives you a weird look, and you feel your mother turn towards you sharply, and only then do you realize your mistake. Clarke does want to be a doctor like your mom, and right now, you’re supposed to be Clarke. Your mother gives Marcus a polite smile. “I’ll see you at the meeting.”
She pulls you around him, practically dragging you down the hall, until she reaches an abandoned corridor. And then she drops to her knees in front of you, reaching out and tugging the chain from under your shirt, exposing the small moon charm that hangs there. She whispers your name in disbelief, and she is livid as she looks at you. “What are you doing?”
“Clarke said I should get to see the Ark. I just wanted to explore, that’s all.”
Someone walks down the hall, past you and your mother, and your mom eyes them warily before standing and leading you straight back home. As soon as the door is closed behind her, she storms to the bedroom and grabs your twin, pulling up the sleeve on her wrist and exposing her star bracelet. Clarke’s face falls, knowing that you’re both caught, further confirming your mother’s suspicions. She leads you both to the couch and points at it angrily, before whisper yelling, “What were the two of you thinking? Do you know how dangerous it is for the two of you to switch places? We have talked about this before, if anyone finds out that you’re twins, our family will be punished. They will kill me, they will kill your dad, and they lock the two of you up, separating you.”
Your lip starts to quiver, upset that your mother is yelling at you, but horrified at the thought that you would be separated from your twin. Clarke experiences the same horror, because she tugs you into her arms, and starts to cry. “No, no, no, they can't take her from me!”
Your mom looks at Clarke in surprise, as she rarely has emotional outbursts, and she starts to soften, realizing she may have been too hard on the two of you. As you cling onto Clarke and she clings to you, your mother drops down in front of you, and puts a hand on each of your cheeks. “I know that it’s difficult that one of you gets to leave and the other can't. Me and your father try to keep things as even as we can with you two, but one of you will always be the twin that gets to go outside and meet people, and one of you will always be the invisible twin.”
She turns to look at Clarke. “Clarke, I know that you always want to fix things, and make your sister’s life better, but there are some things she won't get to experience, and there are some things you can't fix.”
She turns her gaze towards you. “I’m so sorry that you don't get to experience the world the same way that Clarke does. Maybe your father can figure something out and take you on a tour of the ship. Until then, the two of you need to be there for each other. Share your hardships, and give each other strength when you’re having a hard time, because you’re stronger together.”
“I’m sorry, mommy.”
“Yeah, I’m sorry too.”
“I know you are. Now, go switch clothes. Clarke, I want you at that door in two minutes. Don't make me come get you this time.”
-
It’s still early when you wake, the light of the morning barely kissing the horizon, and Bellamy is already awake when you pull your eyes open to the hungry world. You both get ready in quiet contentment, tossing things into your packs and dressing in an easy silence, your words from last night still hanging in the air. When both of you are ready and standing by the door, Bellamy turns to look at you. “If you’re not up for today, I can take the hydrazine by myself.”
You shake your head and press a quick kiss to his lips. “No need, I’m okay.”
He nods before leading you out the door and straight to the Chancellor’s office. You and Bellamy get there before Roan does, but Monty and Kane are already there and waiting when you arrive. As soon as you step in the door, Kane motions the two of you over, his voice dropping to a whisper. “The hydrazine is being loaded now, but before you leave, you need to hear this. Roan sent most of his army back to Polis to keep the peace now that the secret of Praimfaya is out, but on the way there, many have deserted the army and taken to burning Trikru villages to the ground. Your journey today will take you right through some of those territories, and it’ll likely be dangerous.”
You and Bellamy exchange a worried look, but the conversation is stopped from going any further when Roan steps into the room. You nod at each other in greeting, and everyone gathers around the table covered in maps, notes, and schematics, and Kane nods at Monty to begin. “Clarke said to get started without her since I already passed along this update. Sectors, 3, 4, and 5 sustained the worst damage. We lost the server room, all of our processors and life support systems, and half of our living quarters. Now, backup power will keep the lights on at night in the rooms that survived, but we'll have no heat or running water. And no way to restore it or reseal the ship before the radiation gets here.”
You shake your head, the extent of the destruction hitting you hard, despite the things you've had to endure on the Ark, both when it was in the sky and on the ground. You stare at the map of Alpha Station, and the big blocks of red that now cover most of the map, signaling their damage. “Is there any good news?”
Kane sighs, looking up from the same map you’re staring at. “Well, no one died.”
Clarke walks into the room just then, smiling at you in greeting before stopping beside Kane. “Forget the Ark, it was never gonna save us all anyway. We need to focus our resources on the Nightblood solution. Is the fuel loaded?”
Bellamy gives her a serious look. “It's in process, but, Clarke, it isn't gonna be an easy ride.”
“What don't I know?”
You all turn to Roan, knowing that the danger stems from Ice Nation, and he sighs, “With the secret of Praimfaya out, I sent Echo and my army back to Polis to keep the peace.”
“That's good. We need peace to distribute the cure.”
“More than half of them deserted on the way. With the end coming, they want to be home. I don't blame them.”
Bellamy quips, “Do you blame them for burning Trikru villages as they go?”
Roan gives him a sarcastic smile. “That's funny, coming from you.”
“Enough.” Kane looks between the two men, letting them know this is not the time. “We know the woods are a war zone. And after the attack on Ilian this morning, I can't spare many of the guards to protect you.”
Roan shrugs, “My security detail can protect us.”
“Thank you, that's very generous.”
“We are all in this together now.” Roan looks you all over once, before he turns to leave, signaling the end of the meeting. Kane glances between you and Clarke, and asks, “Can I talk to you two?”
You both nod, and you turn your gaze to Bellamy, who smiles and presses a kiss to your forehead. “I'm gonna check on Octavia before we go. I’ll meet you at the truck.”
You nod, and as soon as he clears the room, with Monty right behind him, Kane turns to look between you. “I'm going with you.”
You and Clarke are already disagreeing before he even gets all the words out, both of you shaking your heads to let him know this isn't the right idea. “You can’t.”
“I'm the Chancellor.”
“That's why you can't.” You push the map of Alpha Station, mostly covered in red now, towards him, reminding him. “After everything that happened this morning, our people need you here, now more than ever. I know you're worried about our mother.”
“She's going into space...in a 100 year old rocket. Do you have any idea how many things could go wrong?”
Clarke takes over, more knowledgeable about the discussions from Becca’s Island. “Raven says the rocket's intact. She'd like a little more fuel, but as long as we get her what we've got, she said she'll get them both back down safely. Look, we have to try.”
You reach out and squeeze his arm. “I'll send her your love.”
He smiles at you, nodding in thanks. “Yes, please do that. And I'll make sure there's something left to save...when all of you get home.”
He reaches out and hugs Clarke, who seems surprised by the gesture at first, but eventually hugs him back, finding comfort in him. You watch them with a smile, and he reaches out for you once he pulls away from her. You hug him back just as fiercely as he hugs you, your connection to Kane much deeper than Clarke’s, considering the few near death experiences you’ve both shared. He pulls back and looks at both of you in admiration. “I know your father would be so proud of you both.”
You both smile at him, the mention of your dad making you a little teary eyed. He smiles back, before remembering the time sensitive journey ahead of you, and he motions towards the door. “Go. Radio when you make it.”
“Will do.”
You follow Clarke out the door as she leads you to the mini caravan set up for your journey. She glances at you as you walk that way, before turning to look back in the direction of the Chancellor’s office. “Do you think Kane is good for her? Mom, I mean.”
“I think so.” You think of all the comfort he offered her in the chaos of Pike’s Arkadia. “He’s come a long way since landing down here a few months ago. He’s definitely not the man he was on the Ark.”
“I can definitely agree with that.” She nods to someone in the distance, and you follow her gaze to the Ice Nation King. You still feel a little anger at him for taking you hostage, but it’s overshadowed by the importance of your trip today. Clarke nods towards the vehicles. “We’re going to lead the way in the Rover. You and your men will ride in back with the fuel.”
One of Roan’s men, who is lingering nearby, overhears this and immediately protests. “The King of Azgeda follows no one.”
Roan turns to the man, pacifying him. “It's all right, Seiku. Best we stay out of sight for now.”
He heeds the king’s words and steps away slightly, but his gaze is locked on you and Clarke, eyes hard and angry. You get the distinct feeling that you wouldn't want to cross him in a fight. Before he turns his gaze away from you, he growls, “Wanheda and Wanlida.”
You turn and look at him in confusion, the second time you’ve heard that name, and it takes you a second to realize that it’s a nickname, and it’s been given to you. Based on the tone he said it in, you don't think it's a compliment. You turn to Roan, brows lifting, asking him to translate, but the moment is ended by Bellamy's approach. “It’s time to go.”
You look at him, the tension in his jaw and shoulders, the hurt expression on his face, and you gather his goodbye to Octavia didn't go well. He doesn’t give you time to question him because he continues his stormy walk to the rover, and he is quickly replaced by Monty, who is now jumping out of the truck loaded with the fuel, and headed your way.
“All set?”
He nods, “Locked and loaded. I do, however, feel the need to reiterate: you're about to drive the last 10 barrels of hydrazine known to man, a cargo which Raven needs every last drop of, through hostile territory, packed with warring clans, over uneven roads, where one serious bump could cause an explosion that would not only kill all of you, but would wipe out mankind's only remaining chance for survival.”
You glare at him. “Comforting.”
Roan muses, “What could possibly go wrong?”
You and Clarke exchange quick goodbyes with Monty before helping to load Roan and his men into the back of the truck with the hydrazine. Before you turn away, Roan grabs your arm and mutters, “Wait.”
You look at him, and he reaches into his jacket, pulling out a knife, situated inside a thigh holster. You smile at it, forgetting that it was in Echo’s possession last, and Roan hands it to you. “Echo said this belongs to you.”
“It does, thank you.”
He nods at you and then releases his hold on your arm before stepping away from you, deeper into the truck. You nod at Clarke and the two of you head to the rover, where she jumps into the back and you jump into the passenger seat. Bellamy turns to you, expression expectant. “Ready?”
“Good to go.”
He starts the rover and directs it towards the camp’s exit, pulling away from your home and leading you towards possible salvation. As he maneuvers through the woods, you watch him closely, not missing the way his hands keep fidgeting on the wheel. Your voice drops low, trying to keep the conversation as private as possible. “Is it Octavia?”
“Keep your eyes on the trees.”
You ignore the attitude in his voice, knowing it’s not meant for you. “She hasn't forgiven you, has she?”
His jaw clenches, answering the question for you, and you glance back at Clarke, remembering the tense relationship you had with your twin when you landed on the ground. “Relationships don't fix themselves overnight. It’ll take time.”
“We don't have much of that left now, do we?” You shrug, knowing he’s right, but also knowing he can't force Octavia’s forgiveness. You open your mouth to share that with him, but the thought dies out as the rover turns the corner, revealing a group of Trikru members standing in the middle of the path. Bellamy lifts the radio to contact the truck of fuel behind you. “We got a situation, looks like a Trikru checkpoint. Stay alert, show no weapons. Keep your passengers on ice.”
“Copy.”
Clarke leans forward, between you and Bellamy, peering out the windshield at the group. “Wait, it's not a checkpoint. They have wounded.”
And before either of you can say anything to her, she turns and jumps out of the back of the truck, leaving you and Bellamy staring after her, dumbfounded. You turn and meet each other’s eyes, and he gives you an exasperated look. You nod in return, waving him off. “I know, I know. I’ll go get her.”
You hop out of the rover after her, while Bellamy updates the other vehicle, and you jog to catch up with your twin. As the two of you approach, a man turns and looks your way, running over to the two of you, looking pleased to see you both. “Wanheda. Wanlida.”
Same nickname. Said with a lot less hatred though. Clarke nods to the group. “What happened here?”
“Azgeda burned our village to the ground. My father caught an ax with his leg, and we can't stop the bleeding.”
The man motions towards the bleeding man on the ground, and as you and Clarke walk that way, you hear the door of the rover close, indicating that Bellamy is out of the vehicle and heading your way. Clarke bends down and inspects the wound, and you feel a hand at the small of your back, Bellamy, letting you know he's right behind you. It only takes a second for Clarke to realize that the femoral artery has been cut, and there’s nothing she can do to save him. She turns to look at you, expression grave, but then you see her eyes widen slightly at something behind you.
You turn and follow her gaze to a young Trikru boy, standing beside the fuel truck, looking up at the drivers. Clarke abruptly turns and looks at the man who greeted you. “I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do.”
Bellamy motions towards the Trikru men still spread out along the road, blocking your exit. “Think maybe you can clear the road?”
“Everyone, move!” The man follows you as you all hurry back to the rover, eager to get away from them before they realize their enemy is in the back of your second truck. “If you're headed to Polis, we could use a ride.”
Clarke scrambles into the back, shutting the door behind her, and you slide into the passenger seat quickly. Bellamy, however, is reaching for the door handle when he replies, “We're not headed to Polis.”
“Broadleaf and Plains Riders are moving against Azgeda, we want in.”
Bellamy ignores him, yelling to the kid who has now inched dangerously close to the back of the fuel truck. “Hey, kid, get away from there!”
The boy puts his hands up in surrender, taking a step backwards as he does, his eyes now falling on Roan and his men in the back of the truck. He immediately takes off running, screaming as he does, “Azgeda! Azgeda!”
“No!” Bellamy yanks the door open and scrambles inside, yelling, “Damn it!”
He puts the car in drive and takes off without a second thought, pushing his way through the people who have tried to gather in the road again. Arrows whiz past your vehicle as you make a hasty getaway, and there's nothing any of you can do but hope that the hydrazine is safe as you barrel through the woods as fast as you can.
Bellamy pushes the rover as fast as he can, trying to put as much distance that he can between you and the Trikru warriors. All of you sit in tense silence, the stress of the situation failing to dissipate, even as you reach the edge of the woods. The trees abruptly end and open up into a small, sandy shoreline, a quick moving river flowing in front of you. You and Bellamy exchange a look, knowing it shouldn't be there, before Bellamy radios, “Looks like we got another problem.”
Bellamy stops the vehicle before you all hop out, standing on the river's edge and watching the water move downstream. Clarke shakes her head. “Murphy didn't say anything about a river.”
“What else could go wrong?”
The sound of approaching footsteps in the sand alert you to Roan's presence before his voice does. “Ice melt. I'll find us a place to cross upstream.”
He starts to walk away, but Clarke calls out to him. “Wait, take the Rover. You'll cover more ground, and it'll be safer.”
Bellamy looks over at Roan, and then to Clarke, in disbelief. “With him?”
“We have to get across the river. The rest of us will stay here and guard the fuel.”
Bellamy’s eyes fall to you, and you give him a sassy smile. “You guys could use the bonding time. I’ll stay here, keep everyone out of trouble.”
He looks hesitant, and makes no move towards the rover. You step forward and kiss him, before pushing him away, towards the vehicle. “I”ll be fine. There’s a radio in the truck, I’ll call if we need help.”
He nods, but still seems unconvinced that he should leave you behind. Despite that, he gets inside, and calls out to you through the open window, “We won't be long. Eyes sharp.”
You and Clarke step away from the rover, moving to its other slide to be closer to the fuel truck. From this side, you’re able to see Roan as he moves towards the passenger seat, and when he reaches for the door handle, Seiku calls out to him. “Ai haihefa, osir beda goch yu op.”
My king, we should go with you. Roan shakes his head, turning his full attention to the man. “Non bilaik mou meija kom disha shimon, teik em klir. Emo sentaim.”
Nothing is more important than this cargo, keep it safe. Them too. He says the last words with his eyes locked on you and Clarke, and Seiku nods, accepting the order. And then Roan pulls open the door and slides into the seat beside Bellamy, yanking the door closed again just as the rover starts to drive off. You watch the vehicle until it disappears from your sight, hoping that the two men find a place to cross and they find it fast.
The two guards Kane sent with you spread out, weapons drawn, facing the trees and keeping an eye out for any sign of the Trikru warriors. Clarke walks over to the truck, keeping close to the cargo, while two of Roan’s guards linger nearby, whispering back and forth in Trigedasleng. You linger a few steps away from the truck, closer to the water, watching the river as it rushes nearby, and Roan’s third guard, Seiku, hovers nearby. You can feel his eyes on you, watching you, and feeling brave, you turn to face him. “Wanlida; what does it mean?”
A look flashes across his face, but it happens so fast you're unable to pinpoint what it means. He eyes you for a long time, and you start to turn away, thinking he’s not going to answer, when he replies, “Wanlida, the Bringer of Death.”
“That’s what people call me?”
“Yes. Wanheda commands death, giving the final blow. But you, you bring her to us, to the villages, to the mountain. You lead death straight to us, and she does the rest.”
Azrael and Azazel, twins of death and destruction. Cursed, bringing death wherever you follow. Because wherever you are, Clarke is never far behind. The nickname conflicts you, as you're sure it conflicts others. Some say Wanheda with awe in their voices, some fear, some anger. You imagine that the same conflict remains when they talk about you. The thought of being a killer, a monster, comes back to you again, reminding you of who you’ve become since landing on the ground. Wanlida, the bringer of death. Your thoughts are suddenly interrupted by the sounds of conflict that reach your ears from nearby. Seiku’s too, because both of you turn to face the noise, just in time to watch the two Azgeda guards kill the two Skaikru guards.
Seiku grabs you without warning, and you think he is about to kill you and add your body to the growing pile. Instead, he drags you over to the truck, pushing you down by its side, beside Clarke, who is looking at both of you in alarm. “What’s going on?”
“Quiet. I’ll handle this. When I tell you to run, run.”
You and Clarke both nod, acknowledging his command, watching as he faces the two men and yells, “Chit yu dula? Haihefa biyo na shil shimon.”
What are you doing? The king said to protect the cargo. You can't see which of the men is responding, but he answers in English, making sure you all get the message. “We are. That's why we’re taking the cargo. If nothing is more important than this, then our people deserve it.”
“No, the king wants us to protect it, so he can save everyone.”
“The king has been blinded by his loyalties to Skaikru, despite the lies they tell. Now stand aside Seiku, and give us the girls.”
“No.” He pulls out his sword, and stands at the ready. “If you want them, you’ll have to kill me.”
You hear a short laugh, and then the sound of all three men coming together, clashing in a chaos of sound. As soon as Seiku starts to fight them, he turns and yells, “Run, now!”
You stand and start to take off, but Clarke lingers, eyeing the fuel. You turn and wave her towards you, “Clarke, come on!”
“But the fuel!”
“The fuel won't matter if we’re dead and unable to deliver it! Let's go!”
You grab her wrist and pull her after you, and she relents and allows you to lead her towards the river. Your plan is to cross the water and duck into the trees that start along the other side, keeping you and Clarke hidden until you have back up or a better plan. You’re closing the distance between you and the river’s edge when you hear the sound of footsteps behind you. When you turn, you see one of the men running after you, trying to catch up. Seiku knocks the man he is still fighting away from him, and turns to pursue the man after you. Unfortunately, the man in pursuit reaches you first and tackles Clarke to the ground. You fall with her, your hands still connected, but you roll over and recover quickly when you realize that he’s pulling out a knife to stab Clarke.
You jump up and knock the weapon out of his hand, sending it flying, and he turns and hits you hard, knocking you away from the two of them. You scramble back to your feet and run at the man, tackling him to the ground, forcing him away from Clarke. As you do, Seiku reaches the three of you, and pulls the man off of you before he can harm you, knocking him out quickly. Seiku pulls you to your feet, and you nod in thanks, before he motions to Clarke. “You should check on her.”
Clarke is sprawled out on the ground, panting hard, trying to catch her breath after being choked. As you start to move towards her, she screams, “Look out!”
You turn, watching as the other guard looses an arrow, now heading straight towards you, and for some reason, you freeze in place. You hear Clarke scream your name in a panic, and your brain tries telling your feet to move, but instead, your feet stay resolutely in place, determined to let your body catch this arrow. Except, the arrow never reaches you. Seiku sees all of this happening, and he runs towards you, wrapping his arms around you just as the arrow lands in his back. He grunts, and starts to sway on his feet, and you stumble, trying to keep him upright. But amongst all the commotion, you don’t realize that the guard Seiku knocked out wasn't knocked out at all. He rises from his place, closes the space between you, and pulls Seiku’s head back, slitting his throat while Seiku’s arms are still around you, trying to protect you. You scream as blood spills from his neck, some of it hitting you, and he becomes dead weight on your arms, causing you to fall backwards and crash onto the sand below. He dies seconds later, the blood leaving his body at a rapid pace, and you feel emotion rise in your chest for this man that tried to save you and keep you safe, despite the curse around you. Bringer of Death. And here he is, now dead in your arms.
Your mourning for the loyal Azgeda guard is short lived though, because you hear Clarke let out a cry of pain, before she hits the ground beside you. You scream her name in horror and pull yourself from beneath Seiku, scrambling over to her and checking her pulse as fear practically chokes you. You let out a sound of relief when you feel the strong thud of her heart beneath your fingertips, and once you get the confirmation that she’s still alive, you look up and around for the two guards. They’re close, weapons trained on Clarke, and you have only a few seconds to decide your plan before you execute it.
You pull your knife from your holster and stand, holding the weapon to your throat. “That vehicle will not move unless one of us drives it. Clarke’s gonna be out for at least a few hours, thanks to you, and I suspect Roan and Bellamy will be back here before she even wakes. Any chance you have to get the fuel away from here, rides on me. But if you kill Clarke, I will slit my own throat, leaving both of you without a driver, and with an angry king to deal with.”
The two men share a look, both of them eyeing the knife gripped tight in your hand, sure that you'll do it if they threaten Clarke. Because you will. “Fine. Wanheda gets tied up, but she goes with us. First, we wrap up Seiku.”
You nod in agreement, following one of the men to the truck while the other watches over Clarke. You get one of the tarps out of the vehicle, Mount Weather’s finest, and hand it to the guard that lingers close to you. He motions for you to follow him back towards the body and you do, helping him wrap Seiku in the tarp while the other guard binds and gags your twin. The guard starts to drag him closer to the water, placing him just on the water’s edge, slightly hidden behind a large fallen tree. When he turns his back to head towards the truck, you stab your knife into the ground beside Seiku’s head, a message for Bellamy that you’re still alive, before whispering, “Yu gonplei ste odon.”
Then you turn and head back towards the truck, sliding into the driver’s seat as one of the men climbs into the back with the fuel, and the other lifts Clarke into the passenger seat before squeezing himself into the middle. He pulls the cords from the radio, ceasing any potential communication with Bellamy, as you start the truck and pull away from the river, following the directions that he grunts out periodically. You drive for a little while, hoping that Bellamy and Roan will find you soon, since you haven’t gone too far from your original location. As you’re driving in an open field, surrounded by trees on either side, you suddenly catch a glimpse of something moving closer to you in the side view mirror. As you do a double take and look again, you realize that it’s the rover, and Bellamy has finally caught up. You hold back your sigh of relief and the smile that threatens to break free, not wanting to give him away. Instead, you slowly ease your foot off of the gas and let the vehicle start to slow down, so Bellamy can catch up. The guard in between you notices the slowing vehicle, and he looks out the back and sees the approaching rover, before yelling to the other guard, “Stop them!”
Then he spins around, pulls out a knife, and holds it to Clarke’s throat, slamming his foot down on top of yours and yelling, “Keep going!”
There’s nothing you can do but drive, and watch the rover get closer and closer to your vehicle. As Bellamy pulls up beside you, you glance at him, and his eyes are locked on you, looking worried. His eyes fall to the blood all over you, and you don't have enough time to tell him it’s not yours, because the guard at your side moves the knife from Clarke over to you, pressing it against our neck as he glares at your boyfriend. Bellamy yells, “Give me a clean shot!”
He doesn't wait for your answer, he just pushes the rover to its highest speed, quickly moving past your vehicle and pulling away from you. He puts as much space as he can in between you, before he abruptly yanks the wheel of the rover and stops the vehicle in your path, his driver’s side door now facing you. He flings the door open and you can see the flash of his gun in the light of the sun as he aims right towards you. The guard beside you grabs the wheel, trying to yank it from your hands and maneuver the vehicle out of Bellamy’s path, and you struggle against him, not giving up. But the space between your vehicle and Bellamy’s is rapidly closing, and you know that if you hit him, he’ll be dead on impact, before the crash knocks out the hydrazine and wipes out the rest of you.
You swing your elbow towards the man, knocking him away from you, giving Bellamy the space to shoot him without hitting you. A second later, the glass on the windshield breaks, and the guard lets out a cry of pain before slumping over. You look at his dead body in shock, before turning back to the front, watching as you’re about to slam into the rover. You slam both of your feet onto the brakes, hoping it’s enough, and Bellamy pulls himself back into the rover as you come sliding towards him. Somehow, the vehicle stops just short of crashing, saving all of you, and you lock eyes with Bellamy through the glass, both of you smiling at each other in shocked relief.
-
Despite a few hours of the journey still ahead of you, you all wait around until Clarke wakes up, and you know she’s okay. She's a little banged up, a little bruised, but she passes all of the concussion tests that you give her, and repeatedly insists that she’s fine. Bellamy anxiously scans your body, looking for injuries, despite your insistence that the blood on your clothing does not belong to you. You pass along to Roan that Seiku was loyal until the end, defending the cargo, and you and Clarke, just like he asked. Roan thanks you for the message, and you catch the first glimpse of emotion from the king when he turns away, looking sad, but he quickly tucks it away when he catches you watching.
Clarke insists on driving the fuel, and Bellamy insists that you ride in the rover, not wanting you out of his sight again, so Roan agrees to ride with Clarke, splitting the party evenly into two vehicles. When you slide inside the rover, Bellamy hands you your knife, now back to its rightful owner for the second time in less than 24 hours, and you give him a grateful smile. The rest of the ride passes quickly, which you’re thankful for, and a few hours before sunset, Bellamy guides the rover from the trees, out onto a beach. “We’re here.”
In the distance, you can the approaching boat, your ride to Becca’s Island, this terrible trip nearly finished. Bellamy parks the rover and you both hop out, stepping onto the shoreline and watching the boat as it slowly moves closer. Bellamy reaches out for your hand, and then takes a deep breath, seemingly coming to a decision. “I'm gonna take the Rover back to camp.”
You turn to look at him, at this deviation from the plan, and though you don't want to be separated from him, you know exactly why he wants to do this. “Octavia?”
“It's pathetic, right? She hates me but I keep coming back for more.”
You squeeze his hand, offering him comfort. “She's your sister, she's blood. She'll come around and see how special you are.”
He nods, and you turn and look at him, both of you locking eyes. “But that’s exactly why I have to stay with Clarke. I’m worried about the hit to her head that I was too slow to stop, and admittedly, I’m worried about my mom going to space in a century old rocket to create Nightblood. I need to be there for them. Both of them.”
“I understand.”
You start to say your goodbyes to each other, but you’re interrupted by Clarke yelling, “We've got a problem.”
You both run over to the truck, meeting Clarke and Roan there, and the king is in the back, beside one of the barrels of hydrazine. He slides it to the end, turning it around, revealing an arrow sticking out of the bottom. “Trikru arrow.”
Roan kicks the barrel off the back, and you all watch in horror as it tumbles to the ground, bouncing twice, knocking the lid off. Not a single drop of liquid spills, indicating that it has long been drained, and there's nothing any of you can do except stare at the empty barrel in disappointment.
Clarke is the first to break the silence, muttering, “I’ll go radio the others.”
You, Roan, and Bellamy work in silence to unload the barrels, checking the rest of them one by one, making sure they’re intact. Jackson and Miller arrive on the boat a few minutes later, and after you relay the news to them, you load the rest of the hydrazine on board, before Clarke and Roan board the ship behind them. You and Bellamy linger on shore, not wanting to say goodbye, yet knowing that you have to. He pulls you in for a passionate kiss, long and slow, dripping with love and adoration, saying everything you need to say.
“I love you, blainen natshana.”
“I love you more than the stars.” He gives you a sad look, and you lift a hand to his cheek, resting it there. “I’ll see you in a few days. We’ll figure this out, get Nightblood made, and we’ll be home before you know it.”
He nods, tears shining in his eyes, bringing tears to your own eyes. He repeats his words from the night before back to you, bringing a watery smile to your face. “In this lifetime, and in the next.”
You whisper back, “Forever.”
He kisses you one last time, and hugs you tight, before pulling away and helping you onto the boat. You stand at the back, eyes locked on him the entire time, watching him as the boat pulls away. Your eyes never leave each other, both of you waving and watching, only stopping long after he’s disappeared from your sight. You remain at the back of the boat, watching the sun sink lower in the sky, until it kisses the horizon, the sky erupting in a beautiful painting of colors. And as the moon eventually takes her place, rising into the sky as a guiding light, you watch it, drawing comfort from the crescent shaped beauty. And somewhere, sitting along a sandy shoreline, Bellamy Blake sits, watching the same moon in the sky as the love of his life.

Complete Butterfly Outline
Howdy friends. The following is the complete chapter by chapter outline for Butterfly. Now that the fic is finished and some people want to see it, I figured there was no harm in sharing. Maybe this will help some of you better your own outline process. Note that not everything that appears here made it into the fic, and some things that did don’t appear in this outline. Some events are also in different order due to me changing my mind during the actual writing. Feel free to ask me questions about those discrepancies or anything else. Please enjoy!
Butterfly
The first over-night trip off campus since the training camp is supposed to be a break from anxiety. But between concerns of history repeating itself, a major research project, and a bleak introduction to chaos theory, Izuku has too much on his mind to properly enjoy the fresh air.

I want to add to this real quick because I just dug up my original notes I wrote at 2 am last summer when I first thought of this fic and it reminded me of some stuff. The world of My Hero Academia is set up in such a way that whatever bullshit power you can think of will probably fit. A lot of superhero universes have that, but something about MHA makes it so much more pronounced. Combine that with the idea of All for One, a quirk that lets the user wield an unknown number of powers, and there is some serious potential to absolutely abuse the setting. The idea was to create a lone villain that could perfectly counter everything thrown at it, to the point where it feels like a supernatural monster. Security? Quirk that prevents cameras and sensors from recording its image. Evidence? Quirk that rewinds time on displaced objects. Witnesses? Quirk that prevents people who are already asleep from waking up.

Maybe it was always. -it’s mine. It’s me. -whoever i am, I’m alive -no matter what i do, whoever i am, I’m me. I’m me.

Starting Over Chapter 24
When I said we missed breakfast, I meant that we took our time in the hotel room. I’d told Bucky that I was his, and I meant it and he took the offer seriously. From that first morning kiss, starting slow and sweet, but building to a fever pitch that had his right hand sliding up my leg to my knee - helping me wrap my leg around his back so he could slide right back inside of me at an angle that had me making the noise that I, in the harsh light of morning, could suddenly hear.
Was that ME making that almost guttural moan as Bucky slid fully into me, my body arching to meet his so we were pelvis to pelvis? It couldn’t be me making that noise that was almost feral as our bodies met one another - movement for movement, kiss for kiss, bite for bite. And it definitely couldn’t be ME that was crying out, pleading without words for more, for him, for something that I couldn’t articulate -
Bucky’s gray eyes were locked on mine as I tried to catch my breath again. My God, what was he doing to me? And could he do it again?
Once my heart was no longer in danger of leaving my body and my breathing couldn’t be heard at the front desk, his lips were teasing at a hint of a smirk. “Say it,” I muttered, my fingers sliding through his sweaty hair.
“Told you so,” he chuckled, but he lightened the mockery with a kiss on my shoulder. “You’re a hellcat in bed, Brooke.” His teeth grazed where his lips were ghosting a second earlier. “I like it.”
I managed a hoarse chuckle of my own. “If you don’t hydrate me soon, I’ll be a cactus in bed, Bucky. I think one prick is enough, don’t you?” That had his face pressed in my neck as his laughter vibrated through me, but it got him moving soon after. A bottle of water pressed against my lips moments after that, and then --
“Water conservation is very important,” I was nodding as I pulled him along behind me to the bathroom.
Bucky’s smirk, the ONLY thing he was wearing grew. “I’m sure that’s the ONLY reason you’re insisting we share the shower.” His vibranium fingertips took a slow tour up my spine and I stopped and bit my lip. “Brooke?” I hummed, my eyes closed at the coolness of the feeling. “I thought we were showering.”
Shaking my head, I reached out to turn on the water as I opened my eyes. “You’re the one who distracted me, mister.” He hadn’t stopped, now that he knew he could do it with the mere hint of a touch, he was wreaking havoc on my attention span by ghosting my skin while I tried to get the temperature right. “If you keep that up, one of us is going to end up either frozen or scalded. In some very sensitive places.” Forewarned, right? Except Bucky was calling my bluff, instead of giving up on his new game, he moved closer, pressing his naked body into my back and causing a fluctuation in my entire brain functions.
One part of me really wished that the Smithsonian would update that exhibit on the Howling Commandos and let the entire fucking world know just how fucking magnificiant James Buchanan Barnes really is from the tip of his head to the bottom of his toes, but then again - with the full, and I do mean FULL, length of him pressed against me - I think I like everyone else being in the dark. Just imagine it and feel jealous, people. Or hell, just don’t.
“Is it ready?” He was nuzzling the soft skin just under my ear and I was confused about what was supposed to be ready. “Brooke?”
“Hmm?’ I’d moved my hands to cover his where they’d wrapped around my waist to hold me tight against him.
“Is our shower ready?” I blinked. Shower? Oh fuck. I looked up to see the water pounding out of the shower head and sighed. Duh. Reaching out a hand I felt the water and readjusted the cold tap again.
“It is now.” His chuckle told me that I didn’t fool him one little bit, that he knew he’d managed to once again completely undo my mental faculties and I honestly didn’t care. Bucky Barnes could own that little nugget of power over me. He helped me into the tub/shower combo, clearly doubting my abilities after short circuiting my brain AGAIN. “Come here, Bucky, let me get you all nice and clean for your day with Sam.”
That reminder earned me a groan and eye roll, but then my hands - soaped up with the hotel offerings - met his skin and Bucky forgot about what lay outside the hotel or the bathroom. For a while, I had the same power to keep him as focused on me as he had to completely remove everything out of my brain. And I took full advantage of it.
I bathed him, because I wasn’t sure if anyone had taken that type of care of Bucky for a long time. He’d been a weapon for his keepers, and he’d been Steve’s best friend, but I wasn’t sure anyone had just taken care of Bucky - at least not since he’d been a child. And so I tried to without making it weird. Washing away the day before, his work on the boat, his frisbee play with Sam, and our late night activities, once I deemed him clean - I turned our bodies so the water could wash away the bubbles. Before he could return the favor though, I retraced where my hands had washed, his chest, his stomach, until I found the part of Bucky that I wanted to become more intimately familiar with - and as he braced himself with both arms arched over like a canopy over me, on my knees before him I showed him how ready I was to convert to worship at his altar.
If I’d made all those noises that shocked me over the course of the night and as he helped me wake up, then the noises I coaxed from him during our shower more than made up for it. A moment came, close to when I was about to earn my gold star when I worried about the tile wall of the shower, but then Bucky’s hands were pulling me up his body and then it was my turn.
He washed my hair with enough care and sweetness that I wondered if he had experience, which I answered before I could ask - “My mom asked me to help with my sisters’,” his lips brushed my shoulder, careful of the suds. “I told you, being one of a bunch of kids wasn’t all it was cracked up to be.” I shook my head, turning when he told me so I could tilt my head back as he worked the shampoo bubbles out of the long strands. Using a cloth and his hands, he cleaned me as thoroughly as I had him, and then, not to be outdone - he pushed me against the same tile wall that he’d braced his own hands on, and showed me that if I was willing to worship him, then he was more than willing to become a member of my church too.
It wasn’t quite noon by the time we were dried and dressed, but it was growing close. We hadn’t heard our phones because they were in the car - along with my camera equipment. All we grabbed in our mad dash for the room was my purse and the room key. I’d dropped off my suitcase before I went to find Bucky at Sam’s sister’s house, so I had clean clothes, but Bucky was wearing the same outfit he came up in, at least until he went down to grab his bag and our phones.
“I could go,” I offered, getting a look that made me laugh. “You do know what year it is, right?”
“I know what year it is, I don’t know what difference that makes,” he shot back. Coming closer, he wrapped his arms around me and nuzzled against my neck. “I’ll run down and grab our phones, my clothes so Sam doesn’t -” he groaned, but I could tell he was so happy that we were together that even Sam’s bullshit couldn’t really put a damper on his mood. “Then we’ll grab something to eat so we don’t starve.”
“Ah, remembered that not only do I need to be hydrated, but I should be fed too, did you?” I was grinning up at him when he pulled back. “Don’t take too long, ok?”
He was smirking, but his eyes were almost shining. “The parking lot is barely two minutes away, Brooke.”
“Ugh, too far.” I shook my head. “And my phone and yours are together, so I can’t even get my pineapples.” He was chuckling as he pulled free. “HURRY!”
“You’re insane, but you’re cute,” he was laughing as he left the room and I thought I was in a shit ton of trouble.
Could I be in love with Bucky Barnes already?

Sera with the Members
a/n: mark is in this because dream is now a fixed unit and he’s part of the lineup!!!!!!
WATERMELON ADDICT
was the person who made Sera comfortable since he reminded her of home
always asks if canadian bacon is better than american bacon
‘i dONt kNoW, sERa! mEAT iS mEaT!’
she didnt actually cry on stage when he was leaving but she cried when it was just the two of them and he recorded for the last time
it was her idea for hyuck to buy him a big bottle of ketchup
CANNOT believe that mark was a churchboy and ends up acting up in music videos
the duality SCARES her
calls her finny since her name is serafina
sera has her own room but she has an extra bed so he sleeps in there when he spends the night
learned this watermelon shake to help mark’s hangover
english all the time
ever since they met, mark has always placed his elbow on her head due to her short height
sera learned this fried rice recipe from her mom and he goes over to their dorm for breakfast
‘mark bls dont touch anything. get out of the kitchen and go watch tv or something’
always brings up his messed up eggs
‘gordon spitting facts tho’
whenever he feels too overworked or too pressured, sera has always made it a point to come over to their dorm and have a movie night with just the 2 of them with his favorite snacks and drinks
LONJIN
omg these two
sera is typically not mean but when renjun starts, she becomes ruthless
always calling out his fake personality
‘everyone, don’t believe him! he’s 2 faced!’
‘what are you even saying! you act like you’re so quirky and giggly but you yeeted jisung into the wall last night!’
‘YAH!’
so yea, they fight a lot
but its very playful and they know where that line is drawn and not cross it
he talks to her about space and aliens and she listens to every word bc renjun sounds so confident and happy whenever he talks about that stuff
they’re actually 10 days apart but sera acts like she’s 10 years older than him
‘IS THAT HOW YOU TALK TO SOMEONE OLDER?!’
‘okay, granny’
always in awe whenever renjun draws and paints and she really likes seeing him in his element
unbeknowst to her, he actually draws her a lot
wants to frame all of his work
they go out to the roof and stargaze
he steals her airpods just to watch her go crazy
once hid her phone in the fridge
lives for his vocals
cannot believe how much he’s grown from chewing gum era to now
her heart strings were tugged when he cried in dnyl
renjun always says that he wishes sera was born as his little sister bc they act like they’re siblings
EYESMILE PRINCE
hmm
so their is kinda complicated
sera’s closest to him than all the members bc 1, he was her first friend and 2, he has cats
before, when they still went to school, her and jeno always went together
yes, jaemin and jeno and her went together in the beginning
but jaemin was in the hospital and recovering so it just became them 2
also, she goes to visit his parents so she can see his cats
this results to his parents and older sister adoring her
‘bongsik, nal, and seol are my kids’ - lee sera, 00 line vlive
she always craves for attention and when it isnt given bc he’s too busy playing, she just walks into his room and sits on his lap while he plays
tries to get his attention by saying stuff but he teases her by acting like she aint there
‘fine, i’ll go to jaemin’
jeno wasnt supposed to be blonde for the comeback but they were just messing around and next thing they knew, jeno’s tips were bleach blonde
when shes on that,,,, time,,,,, hes the only one in the dorm she listens to
not even johnny, who’s practically her father
collabs with her mukbang show and jsmr
he mentions her like at least once whenever he has lives that she’s not in
steals his glasses all the time just to watch him wander around with this confused adorable face
hugs are so cute w these two and czennies see them hugging in videos and she can barely reach his shoulder
forehead kisses and sweater paws for daysss
NANA
drop dead gorgeous boy
shes not safe from jaemin’s affections
*cue jeno glaring at him for stealing her*
we all know how much he loves the members and whenever sera breathes, he busts his uwus
takes so many pictures of her
sera buys him lots of lip balms and carmex but he always forgets to put them on
sera hates peaches but she buys him peach flavored sweets whenever she sees them
‘NANA!!’
sera is also an attention whore so she always runs to him and wraps her arms around him and he squeals by how cute she is
bought him an expensive camera for his birthday
has a polaroid picture of him in her clear phone case
actually, her phone background is an old picture of predebut sera, jeno, and jaemin
one of the rare moments where she cried was when she found out that jaemin wouldnt be in a few comebacks bc he was sick
kept visiting him and jaemin cannot repay her enough
the dorm is full of ryan and winnie plushies from the sofa, a tiny winnie plush on the corner of the island counter, and their bedrooms
sera is the one who always throws away the his satanic drink even though it’s still full
‘yah, you need to think about your health and if it your body is tired, dont fight it by trying to drink these to keep your energy’
sleepovers with them are often and sometimes found sleeping on the spare bed in her room
FULL SUN
our big babie
oh boi when he got hurt
sera called him twice a day, one in the morning and one at night, just to check if it’s still hurting and making sure he’s resting
forever remembers when he dressed up as a girl
‘you see, i’m not the only girl member. dongsuk is just on hiatus right now’
his name on her phone is ‘man-child’
when he went on tour with 127, she really missed him
like she missed him so much that she kept posting on instagram for him to hurry back home
still mad that he moved dorms to be with the older members
when sera got sick, she made him sing ‘no longer’ to her like a lullaby
when he asks sera to do something for him, usually she says no because he asks her to do ridiculous things but his aegyo always convinces her
thinks his color amblyopia is so fascinating and adds more into the unique traits he has
another attention giver and she loves hugging him because he gives really warm hugs
one time, jeno and sera had a fight and it got so bad that hyuck had to be called and he was the only one who got to talk some sense in sera to talk to jeno
but the legendary markhyuck summer fight was resolved because sera yelled at them and cried since they are best friends and they shouldnt be like that to each other
they made up since ‘wow sera cried’ and ‘the members are ready to beat us up if we continue this’
and by members, like all members, including the older ones
sera knows how much being the moodmaker title burdens him so she tries to ease that burden by talking to him just the two of them
DOLPHIN CHILD
look how adorable he is UWU
he is 1/2 of sera’s sons
like she’s whipped for him and jisung and he knows it too
‘noona~’
‘yes, i will give you the world, the stars, and the moon’
thinks his laugh is endearing and is sad that it isnt that high-pitched anymore since his voice got a little deeper
cannot believe how much he’s grown too
when he speaks in chinese, sera thinks its the cutest thing
‘can we give his scalp some rest? its not healthy for the boy’
trust fund babies
you know how chenle has 3 airpods?
sera went through 4 phones since she keeps losing or breaking it
dont ask how bc shes as clumsy as namjoon
had this phase where he wouldn’t stop back-hugging his noona and she just left it alone
always buys him snacks and cooks him a lot of food bc she thinks he’s too skinny and wants him to be healthy and gain some fat on those cheeks again
on their break, she went to china with jisung and her lock screen is a picture of her and chenle holding his nephew
triggered her baby fever
czennies ship them but he makes it clear she’s the older sister he’s never had
nct dream took a vacation to her hometown and she bought them basketball tickets so chenle could see his idol
his mom practically adopted her since she goes over to his apartment all the time whenever the others are getting too much for her
she misses him so much its not even funny
JISUNG PWARK
our maknae is growing up :(
sera had the whole family sit and watch the first episode of dancing high
so proud of her boy
she called him during the show and it was shown and heard about her telling him to take care of himself and to not be too hard on his body and that she’s waiting for him at home
as the youngest member overall, sera babies him the most
he obvs takes advantage of it and she used to cuddle him to sleep when he was younger bc he had a hard time sleeping
again, cooks for him a lot since he’s a growing boy and making sure he takes vitamins and drinks water and limit sugary things
she calls his mom to give him updates about her son
remember his phone that he used until it actually died?
sera actually bought him a new one before that happened and just casually gave it to him
‘i know this was going to happen so i just took care of it. i have to take care of you, jisung-ah’
hypes him up whenever he dances bc wow this boy is actually talented
doesnt really like skinship but he tolerates it when she holds his hands bc theyre so much bigger than hers
one day just woke up and she got so confused when jisung grew up
‘did you grow in your sleep?’
‘n-no?’
loves his awkward nature and she keeps saying how adorable he is and cute he is whenever he acts cool
god, she’s just so whipped for him
but tbh, who isn’t?
aaaahhhhhh i cannot believe our wish came true and they became a fixed unit and we really getting a comeback and an mv in the 29th!!!

WIP Title Game
rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder, regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. send me an ask with the title that most intrigues you and i’ll post a little snippet of it or tell you something about it!
tagged by @northern-serpent
tagging @deargrilledcheesusyouredelicious & @halcooper (I apologize if either of you have done this already.)
I don’t think I have too, too many WIP’s but we shall see.
In order of most recently modified:
Illicit Affairs- AU mini fic, in which FP and Alice have never met before and he starts working at the same law firm as her. She hates him at first but soon realizes, maybe he’s not all that bad.
Two Pink Lines- the current fic im working on, only two chapters left in it. Set in season 3 but, (for the most-part), not canon compliant, Alice and FP have started up an secret relationship, and Alice accidentally gets pregnant. FP winds up in jail because he was framed for a crime he didn’t commit... or did he?
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days- based off the movie, I was on a major roll with it but I just need to rewatch the movie to remember all the sabotages they do and I just don’t want to right now lol.
Chaperones- a oneshot taking place in my Northside Diaries series where Alice and FP are chaperones on Betty and Jughead’s school trip, all the while they’re secretly having an affair.
Don’t have a title for this one yet- I think it’s going to be a non-fanfiction story (shocking, I know), but I also could make it Falice? I don’t know I kinda wanna explore doing some original work, because I used to love doing that. Anyway, premise is, single mom, two young kids (I’m thinking daughters?), her daughters call the fire department because they got their kite stuck in a tree. And some sparks fly (ha, get it?) when the mom and the firefighter who answered the call, meet. But is she ready to date again?
How To Save a Life- I have absolutely nothing written for this, but it’s going to be based off the Denny & Izzy storyline from season 2 of Greys Anatomy.
Safe Haven- based off the movie. I had this idea of doing a series called “Falice Film Festival”, where I took famous movies and popped Falice into the starring roles, which is why there are so many movie inspired fics on this list.
Speaking of fics inspired by movies, I also had a “The Vow” esque Oneshot, and a “Dirty Dancing” au. The latter of which has nothing but the first one has a quote.
You and Me- All the times FP and Alice hooked up through the years. (It’s softer than it sounds lol.)
Rivermom’s Sex and The City- I don’t know what I have planned for this and I don’t know if I’ll write it but it just came to me when bringing SATC, and I thought it would be fun to see the Riverdale mom’s in that show. (And by the way here’s how I see them: Alice- Samantha, Mary- Miranda, Hermione- Carrie, Sierra- Charlotte.)
Here You Come Again (Again)- this isn’t what it will be called, I just don’t have another idea for a title yet. But it’s a sequel to my oneshot Here You Come Again, which accounts the events leading up to season 1 in my own personal canon. This one would focus on the events of season 1 (and possibly 2), and what happened in the scenes we didn’t see, like Alice dealing with the news of FP getting arrested, the Chic situation, and ya da ya da.
Baby Blue- Oh I have such a soft spot for this one I’m just completely stumped with it and haven’t touched it since March. It focuses on Alice’s life up until season 1 (y’all seeing a theme here?), and shows all the things that have lead up to her being the cold, closed off woman we met in season 1.
Parentdale- a script I’m writing because I want a Parentdale spin-off.
Curtain Call- famous Falice au fic! FP is a famous singer and runs into Alice at a cafe. She’s a songwriter and an up-and-coming musician, and the two of them embark on tour together.
Just Friends- Teen Falice fic that I think will be posted after I finish Illicit Affairs (mentioned above). Honestly just wanted another excuse to write a Fred and Alice friendship and I got a fun little idea for a fic, so stay tuned for that!
Who’s The Boss- based off the tv show Who’s The Boss, because I just thought it would be kinda fun. Might be a fic, might just be a long Oneshot, haven’t decided. I wrote the idea down last October though lol.
Jurassic Park 3 Inspired- I completely forgot I wrote this down and I genuinely do not think I will write it haha. It would of taken the general plot from Jurassic Park 3 (separated couple’s son goes missing, said couple goes to find him, fall back in love along the way), just minus the dinosaurs.
Bury The Evidence- I also forgot I wrote this idea down, but it’s a fun one. Falice have never met before, FP has just joined the Serpents and heads to the Wyrm to pick up his Serpent jacket. He runs into Alice, the girlfriend of the gang’s leader and hears strange noises coming from the office she was just in. When he walks in, he finds her standing over the gang leader’s body. And well... they’ve gotta bury the evidence.
Home- this one is one I’m just not sure about posting? FP moves to Riverdale after being discharged from the military. He instantly falls for his pretty blonde neighbour, but he suffers from PTSD and doesn’t want to let her into his life in fear of hurting her. Heavily inspired by the Owen and Cristina storyline in Greys Anatomy, but you know, not as toxic.
How It Began- A teen Parentdale fic I started years ago and have left untouched. I’ve gotten lots of comments wanting me to update but I just don’t like where I’ve taken the story so I think updating would entail a rewrite of the last chunk of chapters. Maybe some day though.
Ok so I definitely had more than I thought. Someone kick my butt and tell me to finish these because I forgot about most of them.
