A Lil' Bit Special
The upcoming holiday has you feeling brave, so you decide to take a change.
Fontaine x black reader
warnings: long-fic, bad attempts at seduction and flirting, cursing, smoking, rambling and my horrid attempts at writing humor lol
::::
It was one of those days in autumn where it was just pleasant enough to hang outside. The sun was strong through the few clouds that grazed the sky, the breeze more cool than crisp.
Stacy decided that you needed to "get out more" so it somehow led to her low-key kidnapping you. Apparently there was a kickback happening with "a few friends already coming".
"It'll get you all ready to play hostess later on, trust me." Stacy offered as an excuse to your rolling eyes.
Wasn't long before you were parked, you two leaving the car to meet up with the rest of your girls.
It definitely became worth it when you saw a familiar Gran Prix not too far away.
You were playing the long game, but this was a beautiful opportunity.
To the knowing smiles and grins from your friends, you pardoned yourself to begin walking over to Fontaine's car.
You faltered when you were close enough to see him speaking with someone bent through the passenger window.
You weren't brave enough to have an audience. Another time then.
'Another time, then.' You thought, turning to retreat to retreat when you heard the soft bop of a horn.
Fontaine crooked his finger for you to come over and you huffed to hide the smile creeping on your face as you did.
"Huh, so you're honking at me like I'm some sort of peasant?"
"My bad, Lil'Bit, my bad. It looked like you wanted to talk to me about somethin'."
Your face warmed at his nickname for you, "I do, actually! Real quick, I know you're busy an' all that. I didn't want to interrupt."
Fontaine smacked his lips and gestured to the passenger seat.
"C'mon in here and talk to me, don' be standing out there."
Your heart squealed but you played it cool, "Can't do that--I'm hangin' with the ladies right now, but I do need you to say 'yes' to something."
He huffed a laugh, "And what's that?"
You leaned into the car a bit through the driver side window, propped onto your elbows and wore your best smile.
"I'm here to invite you to my Friendsgiving soiree later this week."
Fontaine paused, eyes going a bit narrow, "Friendsgiving?"
The butterflies returned under his scrutiny but you busied yourself, reaching out to run your index finger along the ridges of his steering wheel's grip. As far as your finger could reach before going back tracking on the opposite side.
"I don't have any family here, so I host one for all my people that can come through. ."
When you looked up, you saw he was watching your fidgeting with rapt attention.
"I would like to see you there. Big Moss too, if you can bring 'em. Anyone really--there's going to be enough to feed an army."
This was a bit of a risk for you. After all, he could consider you more of a familiar customer if anything.
You could have the vibes all wrong. Misread the looks, the small but thoughtful gestures. The few but pleasurable conversations they've had thus far...
You watched his eyes slide from your fingers and up to meet yours, the most expressive pair of eyes you've seen, your favorite part of that man.
"Yes."
You couldn't help but to smile. You were down bad but if there was a chance that Fontaine would like to join you, fuck it. You wanted to burrow in that.
"Wonderful! Bring anything you like, but it's not mandatory or nothing." You spotted a dude walking up through the passenger side window and straightened.
"I'll see you later, 'Taine, yeah?"
He nodded and when you turned to make your way to your friends, you could feel them warming your back.
::::
You spent the rest of the week getting ready to host. You did all of the prep and cooking of the essential sides, just in case plans changed. You would rather have too much food to end up giving away rather than too little to share.
When thanksgiving finally rolled around, you allowed yourself to get swept up in the festivities.
There was a lot of food. Friends who couldn't make it sent forward a dish to be shared the next day. Coworkers who came through to get something on their stomachs before going to the company's booze-only party.
Neighbors who lingered and played a few hands of Spades, bringing fruits and plants as gifts. There were drinks and smoke flowing with the easy togetherness that you were grateful for.
You were in a bit of a difficult standing with your family at the moment. A lot of silences, hesitant texts. It just needed some work, when you were ready to do it. Until then, you still reached out to the fam to let them know you were still thinking of them.
The evening came and your core crew began dispersing. You felt floating and full yourself, tipsy from the good time you've been having since the afternoon. Your apron was filled with messes and you long ago slipped on your slippers.
While farewells happened in the front room, you went into the kitchen to make a few to-go plates and map out exactly how all the left over were going to fit in your fridge.
"You wasn't fuckin' around, Lil'Bit."
Startling, you looked over your shoulder and saw Fontaine standing there with a few bags in hand. You felt your face flame, knowing how much of a mess you looked.
"You're here already?" You checked the time on your phone, "Of course you are, you'd said you'd be a little later. Sit, sit. I'll make you a plate."
"I ain't trippin', I can make it--"
You turned, walking right up to Fontaine and for some reason found yourself grabbing the zipper of his jacket.
"I'm glad you're here, Fontaine. Show me what you brought while I make your plate."
Silently, Fontaine put the bags on the island. Putting the assorted fruit platter and wine bottle onto the kitchen counter.
Bless his heart, he brought paper plates and plastic silverware too. You cooed, grabbing the big count of assorted utensils and immediately tearing into them.
Before long, Fontaine was leaning against your fridge with a hefty plate as you returned to the to-go plates.
"Is 'Moss with you?" You just remembered with a jolt.
Fontaine hummed a positive, "Out there talkin' to Stacy."
You laughed a bit, making an extra plate. With the finished plates, you went to the front room to pass them out. You greeted Big Moss and wished safe travels to your departing friends.
There was only Big Moss, Stacy, yourself, Fontaine. You should have stayed in the front to get Stacey to put away her pretty little eyes, less she get involved in the whirlwind of Big Moss and his baby mama--but...
You switched on your radio and lowered it, asking them if they needed anything.
"Girl, sit yo' tail down." Stacy admonished, shuffling a deck of cards while Moss poured something for them both, "You've been standing all day. Eat something too, while you're at it!"
"Eek, alright, you can't fuss at me in my house!"
Stacy made a show of narrowing her eyes and you hightailed it out of there. You took one of the stools with you, plopping it next to the one already pulled to the island.
Fontaine was rolling a blunt next to his plate. When you finally took a seat, you took a deep sigh. The kitchen would have to wait until morning, you would put all the food away the best you can.
'A happy trouble.' you told yourself as you took in the spread on the island.
A bunt being set in front of you brought you out of your head. Fontaine rounded the island to take a seat on the stool before you. Taking out the lighter in your apron, you fired up in one flame.
"My bad for comin' so late. Big Moss' Mama roped us into cleaning up after her and her gang."
"Her...gang?"
You passed the blunt to him as he nodded, "Somethin' about a knitting circle potluck. I ain't even sure, but she was laughing...so..."
He shrugged but you understood. So long as Mama Moss was having a good time, it didn't matter what she needed.
"Not the Mama Moss Gang." You giggled at the image of Fontaine and Big Moss chaperoning knitters going wild.
He grinned, chuckling a bit. You both fell into easy conversation, comfortable and familiar as you passed the blunt back and forth.
In the background you heard Stacy and Big Moss talking shit and a Lauryn Hill song played. Fontaine glowed in the low light of single kitchen light.
"You want somethin' sweet?" You asked him, your appetite perking up. Fontaine made a low noise, considering?
He tamped out the blunt, "Whatchu got sweet, Lil'Bit?"
"Ugh, I demand a new nickname." You leaned over to grab the top of the cake container settled in the middle of the chaos, "How'd you feel about pound cake? I made the frosting too."
You didn't wait for his response. You cut two generous slices and put them on the same paper plate.
Fontaine passed you a plastic fork, "Can't do pound cake, I ain't lettin' no one else call you that shit."
You stared at him blankly for a moment before you scoffed, soon trying to smother your laugh into your hand. You stood to pour two glasses of milk,
"Well, I don't like Lil'Bit. It makes me feel like you don't take me seriously."
"I take you serious, 'Bit. Trust an' believe. I'm tryin' not to take you too serious."
"What's that mean, Fontaine?"
He tilted his head and gave you one of those faraway looks that meant he was choosing his next words very carefully. You sliced your cake into little squares and waited.
He reached out and took one of your hands it began to fidget, "That came out crazy. I dig you. I think you're somthin' special. I don't...want to run you off. 'Cause you ain't seen it all yet."
Turning your hand so you'd meet his palm to palm, your stared into his eyes.
"What is it that you think I need to see to make me not want you?"
That was a bit heavy handed, but you couldn't make yourself feel regretful if you tried. Especially when you saw his eyes train onto where you still held hands, not able to say anything.
"I don't mean to force you," You said softly, "I just wanted to let you know how I feel. That I like what you've let me see so far and...I would like to show you more of me too."
His brows rose and you sighed, "Alright, I'm a few double-shots down---Okay? I can't dismantle every innuendo."
You were glad to see his face soften, the hand around yours holding a bit tighter.
"It's all good. I'm looking forward to what we'll show each other next."
He lifted your hand, paused a bit, then pressed a kiss to your knuckles.
He promised to think of a name that would 'better suit you'.
Your heart sang at the nearly bashful look he shot you and suddenly you couldn't wait to see how many nights you could get this man to kiss you over dessert.
You kept yourself present, though. Fontaine seemingly done with words as he turned back to his cake. He was content to hold your hand, rubbing his thumb along your knuckles.
There was still more words to be had, but there was always tomorrow.
This, right now though, was one exciting start.
-----------
notes: PHEW! this one was a longer one. thank you for reading all of this, i just really wanted to write something holiday themed for Fontaine. Any feed back is welcomed!

Love, Dhes
Parker,
It's unfair how time with you feels so short. How the last 10 years have felt like no time at all. I like to think there are other versions of us out there, somewhere. Maybe in another timeline, another universe. I like to think we find each other no matter where we are or what we're doing. That we're together and happy and I get to love you in a dozen different lifetimes. That's what I hope, anyway. And I hope when this lifetime ends, we get to start over and do it all again. Because once just isn't enough. Not for me. Not with you.
I hope the next 10 years pass slower.
Love, Dhes

the idkhow concert was really good! dallon weekes has great stage presence and enjoys showing off that he can hit high notes live (and good for him honestly). most of the songs I didn't love from the new album were skipped anyway, although they did do the spoken word song and weekes revealed that it was inspired by a real letter he got from a toxic ex so now I feel bad about shitting on it 😭
I have also concluded once and for all that I hate filming during concerts. never again! I recorded the first verse and chorus of new invention on my phone and it just totally took me out of the experience, I felt disconnected and focused on all the wrong things. I couldn't even jam out because I didn't want my camera to shake :/ so I allowed myself to enjoy the rest of the song and didn't bother trying to record anything again. if I want something to remember a concert by I'd rather buy an overpriced t-shirt than miss out on experiencing my favorite songs the way I want to experience them.
#chatter#i'm very proud of myself for making it all the way through the concert lmao#they took a really long time to set up so i was just standing in a huge crowd dealing with all sorts of sensory issues for like 40 minutes#i was starting to feel physically unwell so i was really considering bailing. but i'm glad i didn't!#i honestly knew i would feel better once the concert actually started. i've been through this shit before lol

* I know I’m technically a focus on art but I also want to chat as writer—what’s one of your favorite troupes that you rarely write whether it’s because you feel you can’t do it justice or just because you don’t? Me personally I am an AVID fan of mind bending/un-reality fics, but I can never write them to a satisfactory level. They’re so fun to read especially when they’re multi-chapter and you’ve gotta theorize on wtf is going on!!! It’s quirky and fun!!!! No one knows what’s going on and I ADORE that type of confusion. Learning to write is fun but I’m not at that level yet and I’m excited for when I can GGHRAAAHHH!!!!
OH BOY. oh boy. hello there thank you so much for the ask i absolutely love it. this took me a while to respond to because i had to get my thoughts in order 😅 i like a good never-say-never attitude, but there are many many things i write that are not as good as the blurry versions of themselves rotating around the inside of my head! the potential, u know? i can never do the potential justice. somehow i don't think that will ever change.
one thing i definitely struggle with is long-term character development - whether it's romantic, like a slow burn, or platonic or just in terms of narrative structure, whatever. i can't seem to get it happening to my satisfaction. i am so comfortable collecting snapshots of specific points of a character's journey, but when i try to slowly allow them to grow and change, it always feels cheap idk 😬😭 i'm also not so good at writing stories which span a longer period of time and/or have timeskips. it's mostly due to lack of practice with longer stories, and i'm working on improving!
in terms of more specific tropes or genres, though.... mysteries. i can never figure out how heavy or subtle the foreshadowing should be. comedy is also hard, although i've been practicing that one and i think i'm slowly getting the hang of a few different styles that are more humourous. and sometimes i read, like, Feist and Wurts' Empire trilogy, or Rothfuss' The Name of the Wind, and realise all over again i have a looooong way yet to go when it comes to introducing worldbuilding into a story naturally and intuitively. also, this might be silly, because the LU fic i'm most known for is literally about this, but reveals? i'm not so confident i can live up to the hype or satisfactorily fulfill the tension i've built. i hope my cursebreaker readers are not going to be disappointed by the payoff/reveal i have planned 🤞🤞😁
that being said, though, i keep writing all of those tropes and genres anyway, and it's really an honour to have the space and encouragement to be giving it a shot. i'm so grateful that all my recurring readers have put their trust in me and my ability to deliver a good story. throughout my childhood writing has always been a very solitary endeavour for me and i cannot express how much fun i've been having on ao3 over the last year, and tumblr the last few months. i've never had a fandom community like this before 💕 and i like to think that while i'm still growing my skills, i also have the potential inside me for anything, if i give it a good shot and keep at it. i think we all do.
i'm very sorry for all of this word vomit 😁 i guess, to chat as a writer, all i can say is i also LOVE reality bending stories, and they're SO FUN and you're SO RIGHT, and i don't have so much one problem writing as i do a lot of smaller more general ones, because i like to throw myself into my problems head-first, and i believe that you too have a million potentials inside you if you keep at it, and i for one am very, very excited to see where you go. i guess this whole answer was a gesture of enouragement, in the end. 🤩🥰
#thank you for the very interesting ask and i am SO VERY SORRY#at both how long it is and how long it took to write#it perplexed me for a long time#i still think my answer doesn't really make that much sense so i'm sorry about that too. i guess all i was trying to say is#i love writing#and i'm excited to talk about writing with you#and please don't set limits on yourself. shoot for the stars#if you do it many times unsatisfactorily eventually you'll find what you like and what you don't like abt it#and where the problems are. and you'll get more specific with what you're doing#and maybe you still won't be satisfied but you'll be having fun. and you'll be improving#i think writing is sort of like that forever though. satisfaction is impossible#so the only thing for it is to be proud of what you can make#social tag#🐝#cursebreaker mention LOL

all fluttering and dancing in the breeze
🍃written for @nobamaki-bigbang🍃
“Great! Okay, so I’m assuming we all know how to play baseball, right?” Maki asked.
Everyone was nodding, and Nobara was about to scoff and say duh, was about to proudly announce that she was actually a fantastic baseball player. But…
But then she glanced at Maki—sweet, gorgeous, Maki with a determined fire blazing in her eyes—and she had an idea. A terrible, devious, but quite possibly genius idea.
“Um, actually,” she spoke up, much louder than necessary, “actually, I, uh… I don’t know how to play baseball.” She fluttered her eyelids and smiled shyly, grabbing a strand of her hair and twirling it around her fingers as if she were the epitome of innocence.
[or: nobara pretends that she doesn't know how to play baseball so she can spend time/flirt with maki]

What do you think are the biggest influences on your writing? -Mimikyu
i like this question! it really got me thinking. thanks @andromeda-nova-writing <3
dreamology by lucy keating was probably the first ever book i read twice and i pulled an all-nighter to read it a second time immediately after i finished it. i wouldn't say the book's writing is amazing, nor would i praise the romance, but i was hooked. the problem presented in the story was unrealistic, but as an avid dreamer myself, i was curious to know where this problem led the protagonists, because, in a sense, reading about the protagonists’ journey resulted in some sort of… catharsis.
it has been years since i read that book (i never touched it after returning it to the library) and the plot is fuzzy, but i won't forget the feeling it spurred. i guess that was the seed that grew the philosophy in me that stories had more impact than pure wish-fulfilment and fantasizing. that has been my core for… most of the stories i tell on this blog, and i hope the vibes reach across to my readers!
as for writing style, or how i write, i'm not quite sure. there was no writer whose style particularly stood out to me. (although writing style is probably not something i focus on hence my indifference…) since writing has grown to be very personal to me, the way i write is just… influenced by many things. by what i read on tumblr, the news, my homework, etc… i take it all in and spit them out in garbled paragraphs.
i feel like… the biggest thing that impacts my style is the rules i have when writing. like head hopping for example. it's something i try to avoid. or the rule to minimise repeating words (unless absolutely necessary or to prove a point or it is a noun). these rules come from books i read about writing.
#.a#andromeda nova writing#i heard donna tart was good & i have the goldfinch for free since like. june. but i hvnt started reading it#took 3 months to read a book (which i skipped some parts btw) so like i don't read a lot right now#i use my free time to read & write fanfiction idk if i should be proud of that LOL#i feel im not picky when it comes to writing style#except once a (published) author head hops i'm out of there LOL. and also if there is too much purple prose#i'm too dumb to understand purple prose so it just confuses then frustrates me HAHAHA#long post#i fear my close friends irl can recognise me from this post alone bc i could not shut up abt the book HAHAH

look. i don't care what anyone says, if you're someone who wants a partner, you deserve one that doesn't yell at you. you deserve a partner that doesn't make you walk on eggshells. you deserve a partner who you can have civil discussions with when disagreements come up. you deserve a partner who doesn't try to intimidate you in any way when they're mad. you deserve a partner who doesn't "keep score".
#on the one hand the bar feels like it's on the goddamn floor#but on the other hand#cis-het culture more or less actively encourages bad partnership#the amount of married people who just act like long drawn out screaming matches are just...okay#that arguments like that are 'just a part of being married'#no#i'm sorry but it's just fucking not okay and i'm so sick of society saying it is#look i'm a staunch atheist but that one verse is something i agree with#(minus the 'it is not proud' part but i'll chalk that up to i'm probably missing context of what proud specifically means in context)#(had to look it up lol Corinthians 13:4-7)#love is patient love is kind#that whole passage#and fuck it you deserve all of this in friendship too!!#you deserve platonic love that is patient and kind all the same#you deserve familial love that is patient and kind#as lonely as being single can be i can at least say it's so much better than being with a bad partner#did that shit once and when i say it took years off my life....i'm honestly not being dramatic#the emotional soul sucking-#horrible#i'll take being single any day#talking tag
