Low Energy/Effort Witchcraft
Are you perpetually busy? Never have any spoons? This might be the post for you. Note that not everything here may be considered low energy or low effort to everyone, and that's okay :)
Carry a crystal around based on what you need. I have a black tourmaline bracelet that absorbs negative vibes throughout the day. I stick it on a selenite slab when I get home to cleanse overnight, then rinse and repeat in the morning.
Put a bay leaf in your wallet to attract money. If you have time, draw a sigil or a $/£/€ on it.
Dedicate anything you drink to your deities if you have any. I dedicate water and black tea to everyone and my favourite raspberry tea to Hathor. Coffee is for Caim.
Enchant your pill case so you remember to take them on time. Enchant your pills to work efficiently. ("Anxiety begone. Ye be banished" on all of my anxiety pills ✌️)
Draw a sigil on your body wash bottle to remove bad vibes or carve a sigil in a bar of soap.
Enchant your moisturizer to repel the evil eye. I fucking love this one.
Incorporate colour magic into the socks you wear (Goths who wear hot pink socks, I'm looking at you).
Enchant your charger so it doesn't break and so you don't lose it. Enchant your phone too while you're at it.
Sorry, I love enchantments--
Uhhhhh
Match those big ol jar candles to different intentions. Burn a cedar candle to cleanse/banish. Burn a cinnamon candle to draw in prosperity. Burn a citrus candle to uplift mood. This one is fantastic for broom closet witches.
Got a humidifier? Fill it up with moon water. You're welcome ;D
Politely ask the spirits of your plants to ward your space. Feed two birds with one scone this way.
Witchy social media. Scrolling on Tumblr and learning something new about witchcraft counts as witchcraft imo. Saving tarot spreads from Instagram for later counts too. Making Pinterest boards for literally anything also counts.
Keep a digital grimoire if doing it on paper costs too many spoons. I have used Google docs & drive in the past but I currently use Notion (You can copy and paste this way!)
If you still want a physical grimoire, print your stuff out and stick it in a binder or glue it in your journal. Boom. Physical grimoire
Listen to witchcraft related videos in the background while you do other tasks or chores in your home
Preparing a meal? Toss in spices that correspond with good health and drawing in positivity, or any other intention you have
Enchant your glasses to help you focus and "read between the lines" or see what wants to remain hidden (this one is a lifesaver at my job)

@hxney-lemcn said more cater fics and I am here 2 deliver ✌️✌️
Tumblr media
*ੈ✩‧₊˚ friends kiss, too
type of post: short fic characters: cater additional info: romantic, reader is gender neutral, reader is yuu, friends 2 lovers ON TOP! a little making out
Tumblr media
Every time Cater drags you through one of these things, you ask yourself why you let him, and every time, the answer is the same: he's your best friend, and you love him.
It's the very same reason you let him spam you with texts and annoy you with surprise selfies. It's the reason you rarely hang out with anyone else, because you know it makes him jealous, though he'd never admit that.
It's the reason you're here, now, awake in your room well past curfew.
Despite the threat of a Housewarden who would flay you alive if he caught you and Cater sneaking around in the dead hours of the night, your bestie was absolutely insistent on this all-nighter.
It's a trend on Magicam, he said, and he had, of course, pouted and whined like a sad puppy until you agreed to "support him" by keeping him awake.
By two in the morning, you were more bored than tired.
"Pass. Pass," Cater says, swiping through dating profiles on his phone. "Hm... no, pass."
You sigh and slump against the headboard of your bed. "You've said that word so many times, it doesn't sound real anymore,"
"Ughhhh. Is Sage's Island where hotties go to die? I just want a cute holiday romance!" he exclaims. "Think of the pics!"
You roll your eyes. You'd heard that exact string of words probably ten times in the past few days.
"You can't date someone just for couple photo ops,"
Cater pouts. "Oh, yes I can. I specify "nothing serious" on my profile! It's not like I'm lying!"
Another eye-roll. He's technically right, as always, which just makes you even more annoyed.
But you don't want to get into an argument about the morality of flings right now.
"And it's cold out. Who am I gonna hold when it gets even colder? It's cuffing season, hon,"
Something about the way he says that bothers you. You try not to think about it so much.
"Well, you'll always have me," you tease.
Cater giggles, and sets his phone down on the bed, a subtle way of showing you that you have his full attention now. "Oh? What's this? Sounds like you're offering,"
"Not what I meant," you counter. "I'm your bestie, not your bae."
"Boooo. What are you, a nun? Friends cuddle all the time,"
Again, he's right. He likes being right, and you can see that on him now, too. He has that competitive glow on his face.
You smile. "Sure, sure, but we all know that cuddling isn't what you're looking for,"
Cater gasps, feigning offense with a hand placed delicately over his heart. "I am not that easy! I'm starting to think you really do want me all to yourself,"
If anything, it's the other way around. Since befriending him at the start of the school year, you'd always had the feeling that he took up all your time on purpose. But you don't say that.
"Besides," he goes on. "There are a lot of things that besties can do that are perfectly friend-like. The segregation of romantic and platonic is a totally oppressive amatonormative structure, anyway."
You roll your eyes. "You have got to stop reading those infographics. Do you even know what any of those words mean?"
"Not the point! I'm saying that there's lots of cute stuff we can do while remaining besties,"
He's very enthusiastic about this. You can't tell if it's his penchant for being right, or something more.
"Pfft. Okay. So, what, friends can kiss?"
"Obviously," Cater crosses his arms over his chest, giving you that smug look of his. "Friends kiss, too."
"Then prove it,"
The words that had you had been holding in the back of your mouth for the past few minutes escape before your brain can stop them.
Even Cater, who's never surprised, pales a little.
Your mouth opens, then closes, then opens, again without your thoughts offering any support.
"I didn't mean-"
"Okay,"
You blink. Something hot and cold at the same time runs through your body- adrenaline, anxiety, maybe it's just your own blood heating up at the way Cater leans closer, cupping your face in his hand, his fingers curled under your jaw and thumb gently brushing against your cheek.
His hands are kinda sweaty. You don't really mind, and even if you did, it wouldn't have mattered, because his lips are now sweetly pressing against yours.
You fit together quite nicely. As if he was just meant to kiss you.
It's hard not to think about everything all at once; his warm hand moving to cup your chin and hold you close to him, his hair brushing against your face, the way his lips still linger with spice from whatever he'd eaten earlier...
It's not perfect. But it's him, which is close enough.
Cater pulls away, his breath dancing across your lips, but he gives you no time to recover before he's closer, kissing you again with a sort of heat that matched the taste of his mouth.
He holds your face in both hands, shamelessly pinning you against the headboard and sitting in your lap as if he belonged there, always.
Minutes go by. Maybe hours. You wouldn't have noticed, or cared, either way. When you finally part from one another, it's felt like years.
You feel like an entirely different person. As if the world had ended and begun again in the six minutes you had been kissing him.
Cater sits atop your thighs, panting, his face redder than his Housewarden's hair, that of which would have flayed you both if he were to catch you like this.
Luckily, it's just the two of you.
"See?" Cater finally mumbles, dismounting you and scooting back to where he left his phone. "Platonic."
You're too breathless to argue.
You suppose you'll let him be right again.

JJK MEN: Plays and Kinks (female reader)
Tumblr media
Hi long time no see…. This is my first multiple JJK men in one writing…. Hope you all enjoy it ✌️💕
Synopsis: Here lie the kinks and the plays of JJK men….
Warnings ⚠️: ass play, daddy,sir,mommy play, food, virginity, etc… lol I forgot
Paring: Gojo x fem!reader, Geto x fem!reader, Nanami x fem!reader, Toji x fem!reader, Choso x fem!reader individual pairing
Ok that is enjoy ☺️
(PS I also added some mood boards)
No minors from this point 🔞🔞🔞🔞
@shadyteacup I did my best how you like it. ❤️💕
Tumblr media
Gojo Satoru
Tumblr media
Food play ( lot of liquid syrups, whipped cream, melted chocolate, teasing you while you cook…be a good wife for him)
Satoru loves food , especially sweets and cooking various sweets. It was accidentally that he discovered his little food play kink. You both were eating ice cream and some of it fell on your cleavage and thighs. Before you could lick the ice cream of you Satoru leaned in forward to lick the ice cream of you.
When he was done he looked up to see you all red. He got up and kneeled down in front of you slowly and torturously licking off the remaining ice cream from your thighs until he reached your wet pussy. “ he licked a strip of your pussy over your panties. The cloth was obstructing him. He got up quickly and put you over his shoulder. Taking the bowl of ice cream in his other hand
“Let’s have dessert in bed tonight princess”
That’s when it all started. When he didn’t order dessert in a restaurant or didn’t buy any mochi on the way home means you are the “mochi” tonight.
“I can’t wait to eat you out and lick and suck this delicious honey from that sweet pussy of yours. I love the taste when the honey and your arousal are mixed up, your folds coated over and over with golden honey, all glossy, sweet and wet, just for me.”
Geto Suguru
Tumblr media
Daddy play ( lot of name callling- princess baby girl doll, you love his voice and he loves your moans)
Geto loves to talk to you. You are probably the only non sorcerer he enjoys and loves to death. He talks to you about everything-what is going on in the business, his success, his worries and insecurities and his thoughts, Gojo being an ass and you love to listen to him. He always wants to resolve every thought of the day before you two are going to bed… so why not talk everything out in the sexual way too? He would love to tease you with his words. Hearing you moan is like music to his ears.
In this context of his kink he has an extremely soft and hot spot for Daddy or Sir. And to give his words sometimes a little more spice until unbearable effect he would love it when you wear a little remote controlled Bullet in yourself and have his fun with it when you’re out or meeting one of those monkeys.
“Oh now now, Babygirl. Don’t move so much! You don’t want those dam monkeys become suspicious, right? Sit still and don’t make any noises that could betray your filthy secret of your pussy. At first, why you’re doing such lewd things in public and secondly that you’re willing to let yourself get caught! To let them all know how needy you are to be filled with a big cock, that you’re such a shameless dirty girl.They’d question my upbringing in your behaviour and Daddy wouldn’t accept it at all. Or will you make Daddy spank your round ass when we get home?” He would whisper absolute filth in your ear making it hard for you stay still.
Nanami Kento
Tumblr media
Bondage play (Sadism, teasing, overstimulation, edging, orgasm-denial)
Nanami was a seen and professional man. He was such a gentleman when you two started a relationship together. He is such a sweet and caring man always treating you like a princess making you happy. He gave you hugs on the way days you were sad, held the door for you walked along with your hands linked with each other , a perfect example of chivalry. But somehow his behaviour turn a 180 while sex. He switches to the most sassiest tease and absolute dom. He is a lowkey sadist. He loves to tease you, deny orgasms, overstimulate you and using the pretty little toys he brought you. You whines and moans drive him crazy like he is feral. He is literally married to using that damn massager that he bought a long time ago. Tying you wrists and ankles with ropes, tape or handcuffs (the ones that bite)
Hours and hours go by before he gives you an orgasm and when you beg for him with glassy eyes he gives you five in a row.
“Please Ken, oh God please! I-I c-can’t handle it anymore! Please let me cum! I’ll do whatever you want without complaining b-but just please let me cum!”
“You’re so needy and impatient, Sweetheart. I said stay patient and after some time I’ll give you my permission to cum. But my little Girl is so indecent and just don’t want to learn how she should behave!”
“Y-You said after some t-time! A half hour went by! Kento, please!”
“God, Darling. Why you are so bratty today? But okay, if it’s your wish to come so I’ll let that greedy pussy of yours come. But then you have to take all these orgasm I’m gonna give you without one single murmur. Is it clear?”
“Wait, Ken no! No-I am s-sor”
“What did I say? Shut your little mouth. And why not? I’m sure, I’m gonna make you squirt all over again~”
Fushiguro Toji
Tumblr media
Kitten play (innocence kink, virginity kink, defiling you, teaching you sex)
Toji’s ego inflates to the roof when you confess to him that you never had sex. He loves your inexperienced body and big doe eyes. He adores how you stutter nervously and how red your cheeks get when he makes a dirty joke or a flirty comment. You decided to surprise him with white lingerie and matching cat ears. He had to admit the minute he saw you he wanted to rip those apart and take you as he wished. Just the thought of marking you making you his is enough to make him go insane. He wants to be the first and only man to touch that pretty body of yours…
“My Baby looks so cute and pure in her angelic white lingerie, but in reality she’s a dirty Kitten and she loves to be ruined by me, right? You enjoy my fingers way too much in your tight little pussy. Rubbing your clit the way you love. God, I love to defile your Innocence with these lewd things! You look so pure, but deep inside of you you’re a shameless filthy Kitten, begging for Toys and my Cock!”
Kamo Choso
Tumblr media
Mommy/Ma’am play (enjoys being the sub, ass play, buttplugs, loves a strap-on)
Choso didn’t have a hard time admitting that he would like to be in the submissive role when it comes to sex. You have been his best friend for years and you guys talk about everything. He knows your Cup-Size and helps you pick your lingerie sometimes, telling you if your chosen set is sexy or not. And he also knows that your first and thankfully now ex-boyfriend was a complete asshole and that he wasn’t even able to satisfy you properly in bed. Choso is glad that you finally left him, not just because he treated you really badly… But also because he has feelings for you. Maybe that’s the reason why he didn’t tell you about his secret fantasies until now, even though you’re best friends. He wants to be desirable for you, the strong man you need to feel attractive again. So he has to cope with his fantasies alone. The thought of being tied up to the headboard, having a buttplug in his tight ass and following your command not to cum until you are satisfied while you ride him drives him completely insane.
Will it only remain his dream…. ? I don’t think so…
I think I will never gonna find a man who would like to try this.”
“What? To try what?”
“I’ll never find a man who would like a woman that is in charge and follow her commands and this stuff. You know. I don’t know if I already told you, but I think I’m more of a Dom in Bed. But it seems like every man I’ve met can’t even imagine giving up some power and let me take the lead for the Night.”
“…W-Wait… you are a Dom?”
“Yeah… I like the thought of powerplay and taking control from time to time. I don’t think I’m a complete Femdom, but it really turns me on when my partner would beg for permission to let him cum. And you know I have a soft spot for toys, I would love to use some of them on a man too.”
“What kind of toys?”
“You are pretty curious, Cho! Don’t tell me you are interested in this?”
“Fuck, Darling. You don’t know what you’re doing to me, you just said my secret wishes out loud. I’d love to follow your commands, beg for your permission to cum and let you stuff my ass with a buttplug if you would like that…”
“…holy shit. Fuck… you are making me so wet with these words.”
“Please… give me the permission to make you feel good, Baby…”
“You may call me Miss Y/N from now on….”

So if anyone wanted definitive proof that Tara Callie never existed, or at the very least, never went to jail — look no further!
So we all know Tara has a tumblr blog still accessible to this day, and we all know that one of her posts has her confirming she was in-fact the writer of A Mother’s Love, A Daughter’s Passion — an MLP fanfiction posted under the Alchorative username.
Tumblr media
Notice the date, that’ll be important shortly.
People have already discovered a TV Tropes user account who also operated under the Alchorative username and mainly edited for Lily Orchard associated TV Tropes pages. Until now, it was speculated that this was also Tara Callie’s account. Which would be damning, because the account remained active until 2016, two whole years after Tars Callie’s supposed arrest.
So how can we be sure that the Alchorative TV Tropes account is also Tara’s, and not just the username being repurposed by a fan?
Tumblr media
Because the Alchorative account’s first edit was made in April of 2013, three whole months before Tara ever established her connection to the fanfiction account under the same name.
No fan would be aware of her pseudonym before she told it. Which means this has to be Tara Callie’s TV Tropes account. Which means Tara Callie was active and online in 2016. Which means she was never arrested. Which means Lily Orchard is lying once more.
Tumblr media
(Source, and before anyone says the user could have changed their username after Tara’s post. They can’t. TV Tropes does not allow users to change their usernames afterwards. Alchorative was the account’s username from creation.)
Tumblr media
So yeah. Explain that away Lily. ✌️

Rendezvous
Tumblr media
Pairing: Rugby Boyfriend! Jay X Cheerleader Fem! Reader
Genre: Smut🔞 (Minors DNI), secret relationship✌️
Warnings: unprotected sex (wrap it up before you tap it), Dom Jay, creampie, voyeurism (watching each other masturbate), so much mention of alcohol drinking, fingering, dirty talking, making out, riding, praising, mention of other sexual act done by them. Hopefully I didn’t miss out anything else.
Summary: Your secret relationship with Jay is torturous to say the least, no thanks to the strained relationship between the cheerleading and rugby teams. Now with tournament season coming up and Jay being busy with training, you and he meet up for a secret rendezvous at a frat party after not seeing each other for two weeks, taking advantage of the situation where you both don’t have to worry about the peering eyes of your teammates. 
Main masterlist
Word count: 4,188 words
a/n: I don’t know how I ended up finishing this Jay fic first out of all the wips I have, and I still need to complete the nsfw links for him as well 🙃🙃 I guess rejoice to Jay stans, this one is for you 🫶🫶
Tumblr media
You weren’t going to lie; the whole cheerleading thing was getting on your nerves, mainly because you could list all the drawbacks at the top of your head. 
Firstly, you bet you could find longer skirts that covered your ass better than whatever you wore they called uniforms. Secondly, no matter how bad the weather was, you had to stay on the field as long as the players were still playing, even if your pom poms were soaking wet from the rain. Thirdly, the amount of spare time you had to sacrifice to train between classes and assignments made you contemplate whether everything was worth the time and energy. 
How did you get into this position you may ask? Well, your friend Gaeul thought it was really funny to sign your name in the recruitment paper, dragging you along into her crusade of becoming the queen bee of the campus, even though she could very much have achieved that without you.
But the last drawback was the final nail to the coffin; it was embedded into the heads of all the new first-year students by the cheerleading captain that relationships with the rugby players were forbidden. Be sure to cooperate with that one rule and avoid getting kicked out of the team immediately.
Honestly, you weren’t sure how the feud between the rugby and cheerleading teams even happened in the first place. Your captain said that it goes way back, passing through alums, but you weren’t interested in history to remember the rest.
This drawback wouldn’t have affected you if only it weren't for Park Jongseong coming into the picture.
The secretive romance between you and him has been carefully built up behind the scenes, mostly because the amount of mutual friends you’ve shared with him ensues the moment you wake up naked in bed beside you after a very drunk party. 
Dealing with overly chatty teammates every day did have its perks, and based on what you can recall, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary for the rugby players and cheerleaders to hook up with one another in silent compliance; whatever happens in bed, remains in bed. The players were informed of the same rule by their own captain about the rule which only further confirms the weird rivalry between the two teams. 
Having that little reassurance, you were sure the one-night stand was a one-off thing, but it seemed Jay wasn’t ready to let go of you yet. 
Months of his flirtatious advances led to the classified yet cliche friends-with-benefits relationship you had established with him. And sex with Park Jongseong was inhumanely insane, like out of this world fucking good that it hurts to even think of how his hips move in and out of you.
You could list all the places you’ve had sex with him; in a frat party, in an empty lecture hall— hell, you’ve even gone as far as fucking in the shower stall with him in the male’s locker room, only because you had waited for him when the players had an extended practice from the coach.
The cocky, rough sex in his car after his team won a match? That was just the cherry on top. 
All because you two couldn’t find a meeting place without everyone else's peering eyes, making it harder to hook up. 
At first, you were sure you had only entertained him because of the banging part but my god, the number of butterflies in your stomach every time he winked in your direction in the field, or when you were sick, he had discreetly visited your dorm through your window in the middle of the night to see if you were okay. 
Falling in love wasn't on your agenda, and as much as you hate the cheerleading club, you weren’t looking for trouble, yet he was exactly one. 
When the feelings were growing more than just sexual intimacy, the emotions took over. He kissed you passionately on the lips that it wasn't humanly possible for someone to show love through action alone, but this was Jay we’re talking about; he was able to make the impossible possible. 
With that remark, you found yourself making love with him that night, and the boyfriend-girlfriend relationship between you two was kept under public scrutiny, even with your teammates and friends. 
Or so you thought. 
“I think I kinda know who Jay's mysterious girlfriend is.” 
A chorus of hard coughing emitted from your throat when you choked on your drink, causing Gauel to look at you worryingly. The loud bass of the frat party almost swallowed her voice down. 
“You okay, Y/N?” 
You wave her off, closing your mouth to control the fits. “I’m— I’m fine. Who is it? I mean, who’s Jay’s girlfriend?” You nonchalantly ask, but the panic clawing in your chest starts to hurt. 
She gave you a once-over before replying. “Yeonjin from the drama club. Apparently, she used to pin him for months now. The other cheerleaders kinda conspiracies that it might be her.” 
Okay, you always hear gossip between your teammates, but why is this the first time you’ve heard it? 
Yes, you both agreed it was a good charade to tell people— talking about your significant other like separate entities as if you weren’t dating each other. A reasonable excuse for many advances and open invitations that includes your friend’s antics. 
However, you were starting to regret doing it because you have a feeling that your teammates aren’t the only people with a blabbermouth. If not, there wouldn’t be a hunt for Jay Park’s alleged girlfriend among the student body. 
You sighed, moving deeper into the foyer to give way to the drunk students walking down the stairs. “We should stop snooping around like this. There’s a reason why he wants to keep his girlfriend a secret in the first place.” 
You gave her a pointed look before continuing. “Such as from people like you.” 
“Come on, Y/N!” Gaeul exasperated, leaning in to give you a lethal combo of puppy eyes and pouty lips that you know so well. “Aren’t you at least a teensy weensy curious about who she is?” 
“No.” You deadpanned, using your index finger to poke at her forehead, successfully pushing her away from your personal space. “What I’m interested in is getting more alcohol so I won’t hear whatever nonsense you’re spouting next.” 
Gauel frowned. “You suck.” 
You snort, raising your red cup at her mockingly as you head towards the kitchen. It was a much less crowded area. You could spot slightly more sober students chatting away while mixing a concoction of mocktails to dare each other to chug. After pouring yourself a cup of soda to clear your head, you lean against the cabinet, deep in thought. 
The sound of music and revelry blast through the kitchen when the door opens, followed by its absence when the person steps into the room. 
You kept glancing at the new presence through your lashes. A sharp tanned jawline, slick back raven hair and clothes fitting him deliciously well that got you biting on your lower lip. When he looks around and catches your figure, his eyes glint in pleasure with a small smirk. 
“Hey.” He greeted flirtatiously once he was close. 
“I have a boyfriend.” You impassively respond against the cup's rim without sparing him a glance. 
His chuckle was deep, almost tugging at your heartstrings. “Must be a stupid boyfriend for leaving his beautiful girlfriend alone.” He leaned against the cabinet adjacent to you, placing his red cup on the marbled surface. 
“You have no idea,” You roll your eyes, crossing your arms around your chest. “He hasn’t taken me out on dates for weeks. Too preoccupied with the other love of his life.”
You baited back, accentuating the last few words to insinuate one particular sport he played. The grip on your cup tightens when he pushes himself off, moving close to tower over your height. 
“Then what does he have to do to make it up to you?” He whispered curiously, peering down and boring his dark eyes with yours until you couldn’t break the trance he had on you. 
When he places both hands on the surface behind you, caging you in only his addicting scent and his face so close that it becomes hard to breathe, you become overly conscious that the students in the room would notice the both of you.  
The proximity of the sight would paint the whole picture perfectly.
“D-Don’t…..” You warned meekly, but your mouth went numb when he leaned so close that if he moved even an inch more, your lips would collide and erupt into flames from the dormant amber. The alcohol in your veins told you to kiss him, but your head was actively fighting to prevent that. 
He raised an eyebrow. “Does he have to be on his knees?” Your eyes followed how he sensually wet his lower lip with his tongue. Your heart was beating against your ribcage at the sight, biting the inside of your cheeks.
He tilted his head to the side, his breath fanning the high points of your cheeks. “Looking up at you while his mouth works between those trembling legs?” 
Shit, shit, shit— 
“Jay, not here." You place a palm against his chest to retaliate, finding the strength to lower your face to the ground. "Please.” You added with a shaky voice, swallowing down the lump of saliva with your eyes closed. 
There was a slight stillness and tension in the air before you heard the creaking noise of the cabinet above you.
“Relax, Y/N.” He reassures you softly. The weight of his proximity dissipates, and you finally breathe a breath of relief. He moves away to stand in front of you with a bottle of alcohol. 
“Just getting something above you.” He winks and breaks into a grin when you give him an annoyed frown.
Of course, he’ll use every opportunity to tease the shit out of you, but the beating of your heart never ceases, even after his little farce riles you up. You were glad that the dimmed lights hid the flush on your cheeks. 
“Asshole.” You muttered spitefully behind a hand.
He poured the liquid into his cup before filling up yours as well. He chose to ignore you cursing at him with a little smile. 
“If you ever find yourself getting bored while waiting for your boyfriend tonight,” He says, slowly backing away while still facing you. “You’ll know where to find me.” He gave you a quick once over before trudging away into the party. 
With him no longer here, you feel the emptiness you felt for the last two weeks without him sinking in. 
You turned to the left and saw the group of students still preoccupied with their recreational stuff, the amount of alcohol making them more delirious and loud. Good, you thought before grabbing the drink to go and search for your friend— waiting for the time to pass until the whole party was intoxicated. 
When the humidity of the place starts to smell like liquor and the students begin to lose themselves in the music in the dead of night, you carefully make your way up to the second floor. You’ve sneaked here many times before, knowing where each door leads. 
You’ve made sure to control how much you drank but can’t help feeling tipsy with Gaeul constantly dragging you for shots of vodka. Opening the door to a familiar bedroom makes you feel more agitated and nervous. 
Jay’s taste in decoration was the definition of suave; the room was polished and slick, much like its owner. You remember the first time he tangled you in his bed sheets or when you spent hours making out on his black leather sofa— the one he was sitting on right now.
“I take it that your boyfriend ditched you?” Jay calls out. 
He sat casually spread on the seat with his jacket thrown over the channel back. The loose t-shirt he wore hung over his board body, and the same red cup in the kitchen was placed on the coffee table. Classic Jay— he was waiting for you to come to him. 
“You should really stop with the act.” You replied, climbing to sit on his lap and straddling your legs on either side. 
Jay’s face twists into content, welcoming you to him by circling his hands around your waist. “Makes me feel like I’m really cheating on you right now.” You pouted, letting your fingers trace his exposed neck to his visible collarbone.
His hands cup your face, bringing you down until your forehead touches. He smelled compulsively musky with a hint of pungent booze at the end. 
“Sorry, love.” He whispered sweetly, but his eyes were filled with dark flickers. “I can’t help it when you look so damn cute when you’re flustered.” You wrap your hands around his neck. 
“Fucking tease.” You whispered back. He smiled effortlessly. 
“A tease only for you.” 
You could feel the serotonin kicking the moment he captured your lips. He felt slightly warm, tilting your head to the side to deepen the kiss. Your mouth dances with him in unison; the initial passion turns into obsession when the both of you realize how much you missed the taste of each other’s lips. 
His hand creeps up past your shirt, groping the sensitive skin of your sides. It made you moan softly in his mouth, allowing him to slip his tongue into you. You dug deeper into his lap, fingers gripping the raven locks of his hair, feeling absolutely drunk in his arms. 
The wet sound of saliva echoed throughout the room— two mouths continued to bite, suck, nibble and pant against one another. Your hips moved on their own, slowly rocking your clothed core on his bulge. The tight confinement of your bra came loose, falling to the floor before feeling his fingers pinching your hardened nipples.  
It was getting hot, and you were breathless when he broke the wet kiss. He was staring at you with hooded eyes as he continued to grope your breast underneath your shirt. 
“I fucking miss you so much.” He confessed, moving to attack your neck with wonton kisses. You hold him tighter by the hair, pulling your head back to give him more space. “You’re always on my mind. Your smile, your voice, your body. You’re driving me crazy every second, my love.” 
You whimpered, feeling him growing harder as he professed his undying agony for the past two weeks. He moves down to place his hands on your ass, encouraging you to keep humping on his hard-on while he licks your lower jawline. 
“Miss you too, baby.” You press your lips close to his ears, purposely moaning lewdly for only him to hear. “I’m always thinking about you, while I’m eating, while I’m in class, while I’m in my—“ 
You paused. “—while I’m in my bed at night.” 
The sentence came out more sensually than you meant, causing Jay to pull away to look at you. He saw the bashfulness in your expression before he morphed into realization at the innuendo of your words. 
“Did you touch yourself?”
When you didn’t answer him, he took that as confirmation. He inhales a sharp breath, and you can feel his fingers digging into your bare ass underneath your skirt, causing you to gasp and look at him. His jaw was slack, and his eyes were swimming with desire yet curious at the new revelation. 
“Show me.”
It wasn’t a request but a demand— a demand you couldn't refuse when he looked at you like a starved man. So you move out of his lap, sitting on the coffee table while facing him, removing your shirt to let your boobs bounce out. 
Fondling your breasts, you let out a whiny moan when you roll your puffy nipples with your thumb, the way you always do while you masturbate to the thought of him. It didn’t help that your mounds were already sore to the touch at his ministrations a second ago. 
Jay was really enjoying the sight, removing his shirt while keeping his eyes on you. 
His body was carved like a Greek god— beautiful taunt muscles at every region with a sun-kissed glow; watching his biceps flex as he loosened his belt and pulled his pants down. 
“I know you touch yourself more than that.” He urged from his seat, palming himself through his briefs. “Show me how you play with that pretty pussy for me.” 
His voice was like a spell— coaxing you to remove your skirt and peel your soaked panties off. Placing your feet on the table’s surface, you spread your legs to expose every inch of your pussy for only his eyes to feast. You can’t help but whimper at how he was eye fucking your entirety. 
Pushing two fingers into your mouth, you coat your fingers with saliva before slipping them between your thighs. You were drenched— every slip of your fingers between your folds spilled more juices that puddled on the crack of your ass. 
“That’s it, fuckin’ beautiful.” His muttered praises only made you moan louder, peeking through heavy eyelids as you watched him jerk his big cock to the rhythm of your fingers while the other rested at the back of his head. 
You open your legs wider, pushing two fingers into your entrance, absolutely enamoured by the feeling of him watching you finger yourself that’s making your body burn into a pile of ashes. It was not easy on him either— watching you pleasure yourself got him lightheaded and head oozing with precum. 
“Is that how you fuck that pretty pussy with your fingers, hmm? Stretching that perfect hole wide like how I would with my cock?”
“Jongseong.” You crooned desperately, falling to rest your back on the table. Your thumb found its place on your clit, rubbing circles against the bundle of nerves until your hips were bucking the air, inwardly screaming at the blinding pleasure. 
“Fuck.” He cooed, wincing as he thumbed his sensitive head. “Look at you playing with your clit. So fucking sexy. That’s how you always feel, baby, so soft and sensitive on my fingers.” 
Jay’s filthy words spurred you on, plunging your fingers until they reached the spongy spot deep within, your back arching at the pleasure of the simple movement. But it wasn’t enough; the knot in your stomach would not come undone— the only thing that could quell your thirst was him. 
You craved his cock, needing it to split you open until you forgot your name.
“Jay, it's not enough.” You begged, sitting up with every strength you had. “I need you inside of me, please.” 
He sensed your hunger, your anguish— your desperation, and didn’t spare a second to open his arms to you. 
“Come here.”  
You immediately jump to straddle his lap, trembling hands holding onto his shoulders for leverage as you grip the base of his cock to align it with your entrance. Jay hissed at your touch, hands found purchase on your sides to support your weight. 
“Hey, hey, hey.” Jay gently whispered, noticing how you impatiently tried to nudge the tip of his cock into your hole with frustration. “Slow down, love. I’m not going anywhere.” He cradles your cheek with both hands to pull you closer to his face, smiling softly once you look back at him. 
“Relax and don’t hurt yourself, okay? I can wait for you forever like this.” He pushed back your hair to mouth kisses just under your ear, causing your muscle to ease up at his touch, dissipating some of the eagerness that clouded your sanity. 
Taking a deep breath, you probe his tip to your hole and slowly sink his length with your eyes closed. 
“That’s it, that’s my good girl.”
The way he purred, those words caused you to claw at his shoulders, his girth burning your walls so deliciously that you can’t help but clench around it. He massage your ass, letting you bottom down until you sit on his lap. 
“Ah god, Jongseong, you feel so amazing.” You gritted out, moaning rapturously at how full you felt with his cock, feeling the size and length of it moulding your womb. 
“My good girl, taking my cock so perfectly.” He thrusts up, burying his face in the crook of your neck. Your fingers curled into his messy locks to steady yourself, bouncing back to the movement of his hips.
Fuck, the way his cock dragged against your velvet walls, pressing on the deepest spot that brought you solace repeatedly— you were practically melting in his arms. 
Jay’s groans vibrate against your neck, feeling you clench and unclench around his length erratically. You were throbbing endlessly until all he could fathom was your scent and your sweet moans that consumed him with the desire to fuck you senseless.  
“You’re mine.” He breathed out, lunging a hard thrust that got you screaming. He slaps your ass, digging his teeth at the base of your neck, loving how you clung to him like he was your deity. He rutted into you, cock never slipping out, not even an inch.
The sound of skin slapping overthrew the music coming from the party downstairs. 
He growled. “All fucking mine.”
“A-ah, I’m all yours.” You swallowed, pressing your lips against his ear, lapping at the outer shell with want. “My mind, my body, my pussy— I belong only to you.” 
You have awakened the carnal urge he had suppressed for so long, making him stir into a frenzy, bringing you up and slamming you down on his cock so that all you could do was succumb to your orgasm. 
You could feel the knot in your tummy come undone, bathing you in the familiar warmth you longed for. Jay kissed your lips deeply, grinding a few more times before he too came with a heavy grunt, filling you up raw with ropes of hot cum.
You were blinded with pleasure, your vision slowly giving out, and all you could feel was the force of each other’s release. 
At that moment, you prayed to whoever above to promise you that heaven would feel as good as this.  
Once the air starts to clear up and Jay finished riding you out of your orgasm, he pulls his cock out of your spent pussy, his release dripping down your inner thigh while you lay limp in his arm. You could hear the heavy panting from both sides; exhaustion finally computed in your mind. 
He started to make motions to move you into a more comfortable position to clean you up. Your heart swelled with butterflies, reminding yourself why you had fallen for him in the first place. 
You wrap your arms around his neck, resting your forehead against his. “Later,” You persuade softly, inevitably stopping him from moving. “I want you to hold me closely.” 
“Okay.” He sighed, staring deep into your eyes.
It was lethal to your heart— how you could see the entire galaxy shining in the specks of his gaze. He smooths your back with the palms of his hands, lovingly pecking at the corner of your mouth. 
Your bodies fit into the compact confinements of the sofa, legs stretched out to tangle with each other. The side of your face rested on his arms, hugging him close until your bare skin touched. His other arm was draped around your waist, softly tracing the skin at the bottom of your spine. 
You're not sure how long you were staring at each other before he opened his mouth to mutter something in the embrace.
“You’re beautiful.” 
You giggled, shaking your head. “You’re more beautiful.” 
He burst into a laugh, eyes forming breathtaking crescent shapes, the afterglow of sex making him glimmer like the sun. The laughter soon quiets down, the soft sound of the bass downstairs filling the room. 
He looks at you once more, but the frown on his face catches you off guard. 
“I’m sorry I can’t spend more time with you.” He said. You recognize the guilt in his voice, pulling him closer to your body. “Just that the pressure from the coach and with all the other members being on edge with the final tournament…..”
You kiss his chest, feeling him sigh with relish at your lips on his skin. “It’s fine Jay, the last thing I want you to worry about is me. Focus on playing your best, and I’ll be there cheering once you win.”
He pushes back a strand of hair behind your ear, chuckling at your words of confidence.
“I promised to make it up to you.” His ardent oath caused you to snuggle into his chest, feeling him reciprocate your hug by placing his chin on the crown of your head. 
You mumbled close to his beating heart.
“Don't worry, I can wait for you forever like this.”

i feel like i don’t see enough louis one shots and it’s criminal😭
could you possibly do a one shot where the relationship between louis and reader is forbidden like reader is one of the boy’s sister and forbids anyone dating her etc. and they sneak around and almost get caught?
love reading your work!!🩵
Tumblr media
@tommomylove91
you know what ? it IS fkn criminal !! these requests were mixed together .. they both just seemed to flow together too nicely ! hope you both enjoy ✌️
TW : alcohol consumption, smutty-esque
Word Count : 2k
Tumblr media
“fuck do you think you’re doing ? someone’s gonna see,” louis exclaims, pushing your hand away.
you were out celebrating niall, your brother’s, birthday. you were excited when he had asked you to join him and his friends, always having had such a crush on louis. and you knew he’d obviously be there.
ever since the day you’d met him, so many years ago now, when the band was formed, there was an intense attraction between the two of you. and well, tonight, with the amount of alcohol coursing through your bloodstream, and the unquestionable amount of luck you’d gotten with the seating arrangement, your drunken mind decided to have a little fun.
what you didn’t know is that, as much as louis wanted nothing more than to bend you over the table, and fuck to hell anyone who sees, niall had forbade any of his bandmates from even coming close to hitting on his sister. now, that may have been a promise that louis made well over 10 years ago now, but it does still remain. and he can’t say he totally blames niall. couldn’t imagine any of those lads trying their luck with any of his sisters. knows what those guys are like, and he would not second guess sending his fist into their jaw if they did anything to his siblings.
but with a buzz induced fog, damn all those rum and coke’s, you don’t really care about louis’ warning, your hand softly trailing from his knee, following the inseam of his pants, slowly gliding up his inner thigh, occasionally squeezing into his clothed flesh.
and well, louis was only human, his resolve slowly fading with the continuous sips of his vodka and sprite. he can feel the interest springing in his cock, his heartbeat starting to accelerate. he wants you. wants you more than he’ll ever admit to you. or to anyone, really. but niall’s right across the table, and your arm’s suspicious stretch over to louis’ lap isn’t quite as subtle as you probably think.
“c’mon love,” he groans, hastily moving your hand away as it’s gotten fairly close to touching a certain hardening appendage that’s tenting louis’ pants. “the others will see. seriously what’s gotten into you ?” he murmurs quietly against your ear, in an effort to keep the conversation to a low volume.
a shiver runs down your spine, louis’ warm breath hitting your neck and ear, the heat shooting straight down to your pussy, getting wetter and wetter by the moment. you bite your lip, your shoulders relaxing into an almost slump, as you look over at him, need evident, no, screaming, at him through your gaze. “i can’t resist you anymore,” you whisper embarrassingly, your cheeks warming at your confession, as your hand darts out to touch his leg again, fingers gripping into the meat of his thigh.
“louis !” niall shouts at him, “you’re not even fuckin listening mate,” he shakes his head. “fuck are you two on about over there anyway ?”
louis’ head snaps quickly to face niall, a nervous chuckle leaving his lips, shaking out his hair, as his brain gets snapped back into the reality at hand, “sorry mate, sorry. you know how annoying your little sister can get,” he chuckles, no malicious intent evident in his tone, clearly needing an excuse. and honestly, it wasn’t all that far from the truth, with the amount of times your hand ends up on him. “what was it you were saying ?”
you huff, leaning back in your chair, arms crossing over your chest for a moment, before reaching out for your drink again, taking a few sips, throwing your leg over your knee, your foot now rubbing up and down louis’ calf. 
it was more subtle, which louis was thankful for, especially as he attempted to keep his cool and have a full blown debate with niall and deo. but as your heel gets slid off, and your toes make contact with the end of his pant leg, he can feel you sliding up his calf, skin to skin. you were so warm, leaving a trail of fire as you work your way higher up, close to reaching his knee, and for a moment, he was cursing himself for having worn sweatpants instead of jeans.
“stop,” he groans with more vigour against your ear, as niall and deo delve deeper into the debate, knowing that his request will surely be falling on deaf ears, apparently doing as you please, without much regard for anyone else tonight.
you turn yourself more towards louis, your back practically facing the table, murmuring against his ear, “and what if i dont ?” quickly taking his earlobe between your teeth, and tugging.
louis’ swift to bite his lip, holding down the moan that’s threatening to escape, his hand shooting out, nails digging into your hip, from under the table, as a form of warning. he cannot get caught. especially not on niall’s birthday. it would ruin it for him, and louis’ not about to let that happen.
“fuckin christ, y/n, leave louis alone,” niall snaps at you, shaking his head, adding playfully, “don’t make me separate you two.”
you turn back to face the table, rolling your eyes at your brother, “m’not doing anything you wanker.”
niall flips you off, a smirk pulling at his lips, knowing that you wont take him seriously for a second, before getting up and taking everyone’s drink orders, heading off to the bar for another round.
louis turns to you, the others at the table not paying so much attention, “fuckin hell, love,” he groans, “you’re going to get us both in trouble. niall’s not that stupid, he’s surely reading right through this.”
“have you met him when he drinks,” you giggle, “s’not gonna remember anything. but if it’s more privacy you want, meet me in the bathroom in a few minutes.” and with that, you stand, not waiting for any form of confirmation, heading off to the washroom.
you head down the hallway, going into the bathroom, leaving a small crack in the door, hoping to see louis coming by, in search for you, very soon. your resolve was waning, and if he wasn’t going to come back here in the next few minutes, you’d shimmy your underwear off and take matters into your own hands.
your patience was thankfully not tested tonight, as a moment later, you notice louis, making you pop your head out of the door, and beckoning him over. he checks his surroundings quickly, making sure no one’s paying attention, before slipping into the washroom, clicking the door locked behind him.
instantly, your hands grip into his shirt, right over his chest, pulling him closer to you. but louis’ quick to grip into your wrists, stopping you dead in your tracks, tutting at you, “m’not here to hook up with you. you’re drunk aren’t you ? there’s no way you’d be doing this if you were sober.”
you look up at him, sadness mixed with need mixed with years of pent up arousal and want, biting your lip as you hum, “i wouldn’t be doing this sober,” you admit. “but it’s not because i dont want to, it’s because i wouldn’t have the courage to.”
“love,” louis sighs, feeling your hands slide from their perch in his chest, down to his hips, pulling him closer, in a silent plea. “i can’t do that to niall. he’s like a brother to me, he’d fuckin kill me.”
“well, he’ll have to go through me first,” you huff, pressing him against you, feeling his stiffy. “what is it you want ?”
you can see louis’ determination diminishing, his hand gently cupping your jaw, thumb rubbing against your cheek, trailing over the plushness of your bottom lip, “wanna do this,” he hums, leaning in, and pressing his lips to yours, because, really, fuck it all. he’s a saint for having resisted you so long anyway.
a groan instantly works its way up from your chest, hands instinctively gripping into his soft hair, holding him as close to you as you can.
you moan breathily, your mouths fighting for dominance, a decade of pent up attraction finally finding its way to the surface. with louis’ one hand against your jaw, the other gripped tightly into your hip, he begins to walk you backwards, your back hitting into the wall, his hips rolling against yours, a moan leaving his lips at the friction his cock has been desperately craving since your hand first made contact with his thigh.
“you’ve no idea how long i’ve wanted this,” louis whispers against your mouth, his teeth biting into the flesh of your bottom lip, as he grips your thigh, throwing it over his hip, giving himself much better access to grant you some pleasure as well.
the newfound angle makes you whimper, your breath picking up, losing yourself into louis. your fingers scratch at his scalp, foot digging into his bum to hold him close, closer. 
your cunt was an absolute mess, clenching around nothing, your panties completely soaked through, clit throbbing for attention, fumbling your way to try and discard his pants.
“christ, not here, darling,” louis groans, hips bucking instinctively into your touch, his lips working their way over your neck, finally getting a taste of your skin, something he’s begrudgingly withheld himself from for so long. “make it so hard to resist you,” he moans, nipping at your sensitive skin, where your neck meets your jaw. “you’re so fuckin gorgeous, and you know it don’t you ? always teasing me, fuckin gagging to get into my pants, christ, look at you.”
you whimper louder, tugging on him, needing him, craving absolutely any form of touch at this point.
you’re both quickly startled, frightened as you’re both caught off guard, a loud knock rasping against the door, “louis, you in there ? have ya seen my sister ?”
“fuck,” he whispers too quietly for niall to hear, adding louder, “yeah, m’here. haven’t seen her though mate.”
you both wait, holding your breath, hearing niall mutter a curse under his breath, the faint thumping of his footsteps retreating.
“fuckin hell,” louis groans exasperated, his heart about to burst out of his chest.
your eyes were closed, forehead pressed against louis’ chest, shaking your head, “that was way too close.”
“we can’t do this here,” louis murmurs sadly, catching sheer disappointment plastered across your features, as you roll your head back against the wall, needing a breather, knowing full well that your chance has flown out the window.
and for a moment, louis feels his heart squeeze. he can’t leave you high and dry, and quite honestly, doesn’t want to hold back from you anymore. he’s pretty sure he could take niall anyway, if the day ever comes. “think you can hold it together ? just a little longer,” he murmurs softly, lips pressing a soft, comforting kiss into your chin. “we can sneak off together later, smuggle you into my uber,” he chuckles breathily, “do this alone. no brother to get in the way.”
and if the way your face lights up was anything to go by, louis can bet that he’ll be having the best night he’s had in a long while.

Luke Alvez x Reader: An Accident
Request: “i cannot stop thinking about luke (could just leave it at that! but i will continue) being almost obnoxiously overbearing if his S/O got hurt in the field. ESPECIALLY if he saw the incident go down. i’m talking not leaving their hospital room for DAYS, or not letting them off the couch to get a glass of water. i’m such a sucker for angst with fluffy undertones (😔✌️) so id owe u my first born if u could write something like this!!! also 100% get it if u aren’t interested! ty SO much either way”
Word count: 2.4k 
Warnings: car accident, injury tw
A/N: repost
Tumblr media
When Luke finally has a chance to check his phone, his heart sinks as soon as he sees the eleven missed calls. Eight are from his own mother, accompanied by a couple of voicemails. Two are from your mother and one is from a number Luke doesn’t even have saved in his contacts. 
An instant feeling of dread settles within the depths of his stomach. His finger lingers over the play button of the voicemail his mom had left him, but he hesitates. Luke’s family knows he often couldn’t answer his phone when he’s away on a case. For them to call this many times meant something was wrong– horribly wrong.  
He turns the corner, slipping into an empty room in the police precinct. As soon as he closes the door behind him, he’s pressing his phone to his ear. 
Luke’s heart sinks even further when he hears his mother’s panicked voice over the phone. But it completely stops when he hears her say that there’s been a car accident.
Luke hangs up before the voicemail ends, rushing out of the room towards where he heard the voices of the rest of his team. 
He barges into the conference room, clinging onto the door frame as he speaks hurriedly.  
“Emily–” he stammers “I ha-have- I have to go–”
The rest of the team turns in their chairs to face Luke, but his desperate gaze is focused only on Emily and the permission he needs from her to leave the case.
“Luke,” she’s trying to remain calm for him. “What’s wrong?”
He runs his fingers through his tight curls frantically. “Y/N was in a car accident.” He doesn’t even recognize the sound of his own voice.
“What?” 
“Oh my god!”
“Is she okay?”
JJ, Spencer, and Emily’s voices all overlap as they react to the news.  
“My mom just said she’s in the hospital. She hadn’t heard anything yet.” Luke feels like he’s on autopilot while he speaks. He doesn’t even really know what he’s saying- he just knows he needs to go. Fast. 
Of course Emily excuses him. She even insists that he takes the jet with promises that he’ll keep the team updated. 
On the plane ride back home, Luke can’t stop thinking about that morning. Normally, Luke always kisses you goodbye and tells you he loves you. He’d almost call it a routine if he didn’t mean it so much. But that morning he’d been in a rush. All he could think about was where his stupid phone charger was. He remembers how frantically he had to search, barely acknowledging your attempts to say your affectionate goodbye. And he’d hurried out of the house without so much as a wave. 
What if that was the last time he saw you? What if the last thing he ever did was disappoint you?
He remembers the sad look in your eyes as he left you alone in the kitchen, messy hair and tank top strap sliding slightly off your shoulder, he can’t get it out of his head.
And now it’s going to haunt him forever.
None of this was supposed to happen. He’s supposed to protect you– that’s his job. He’s supposed to protect you better than anyone else. He’s supposed to be able to keep you safe, always. 
But he didn’t.
He feels sick.
It’s chaos when Luke finally arrives at the hospital and finds both his and your family in the waiting room on the floor he barely remembers his mom telling him to go to. He vaguely registers the presence of your parents in the hallway. He doesn’t even say hello.
Instead he asks, “Where is she? What’s going on?”
“We haven’t heard anything yet,” your mom says. 
“What the hell happened?” 
“Someone t-boned her at an intersection, right on the driver’s side. She’s in surgery now, doctor’s haven’t been able to update us much.” Your dad pulls your mother into his embrace, kissing the top of her head. 
Luke shakes his head, like he couldn’t quite process what was happening. 
You must have been so scared and he wasn’t there.
All he can picture is you, amidst the rubble of a car accident. How much pain you must have been in. The fear and panic you must have experienced.
And he wasn’t there.
He needs to see you.
Luke marches over to the nurses station without uttering another word to your parents or his mother. He puts his hands on the counter before speaking. “I need an update on a patient.” He tells the nurse your name. 
“I’m sorry sir, she’s still in surgery. The doctor will come out and give you an update on her condition as soon as possible.” 
Luke bites his lip. He wants to scream and yell and pound his fists. But instead he nods and uses what little energy he had left to let go of his anger. “Thanks,” he sighs in defeat. 
He’s unaware of how much time passes, he’s too engulfed in his own thoughts, too preoccupied with punishing himself for not paying more attention to you this morning to keep track. The waiting room was eerily empty and quiet enough so that Luke could hear the faint humming coming from the fluorescent lights above. He chews on his nail roughly, trying not to focus on the silence. 
When a woman in a pair of dark blue scrubs walks down the hallway peeling off a pair of latex gloves, Luke instantly snaps out of his trance and stands up. 
The doctor holds her hand out to shake and introduces herself to Luke and your parents. 
“I’m so sorry to keep you waiting,” she says. She turns to face Luke. “I want you to know that your wife, Y/N, is alive. She’s alive.”
There’s a moment where everyone lets out a sigh of relief before continuing to listen to what the doctor has to say.
“Y/N came into the ER bleeding and with a broken collar bone, a fractured arm, and a couple of broken ribs. But my biggest concern was the swelling in her brain.”
Luke is barely processing what the doctor is saying. Imagining you in such a state is almost unbearable, but he keeps quiet and continues listening. 
“We were able to relieve some of the swelling in her skull, which should take the pressure off of her brain. It was touch and go for a while there- the damage was,” she pauses for a moment before finishing her thought, “extensive.”
“Is she going to be alright?” Your mom asks the question everyone is wondering. 
“We’ll need to monitor her levels overnight. But I would say the worst part is behind us. She’s a fighter.”
“Can we see her?” Luke asks. 
The doctor nods.   
It takes a minute to realize that it’s even you lying in that bed. You’re hooked up to all these machines that are beeping so loudly, and there’s IV’s and cords hanging over you. A wave of nausea hits Luke again, the realization of how hurt you are. His girl. His beautiful, perfect, broken girl. 
He sinks into the chair at your bedside, hands shaking when he sees the bandage wrapped around your head. You look so pale and so weak.
He can’t stop staring at your face, willing you to open your eyes and just look at him.
He should have protected his girl.
He scoots the chair forward, reaching out a trembling hand to clasp yours. His fingertips graze your knuckle. Skin that was once smooth is now littered with cuts and bruises.  
Gently cradling your fingers in his, it’s only when the tears hit his arm that he even realizes he’s crying. He kisses your knuckles softly, resting his forehead against your hand.
The thought of you needing him made his insides ache with guilt. You needed him and he wasn’t there. He clutches your hand tightly and prays to whatever God might be out there. Let her wake up, he pleads. Please, let her wake up and I promise I’ll never not be there again.  
It’s been less than a week since you were released from the hospital and you’re ready to murder Luke. 
At first all his doting attention was kind of sweet. You loved that he had taken some time off to care for you. He was being a loving, attentive husband, taking care of his poor, injured wife. 
You know that deep down it’s because he feels guilty. You had already assured Luke over and over again that you in no way blamed him for what happened. How the hell was he supposed to protect you from a car accident when he was eight hundred miles away?
But that did little to amuse Luke.  
You really are doing much better. Sure it was a long road of recovery in the hospital. You’d seen physical therapists and occupational therapists and nurses and doctors and everything in between every day for weeks. And yes, your arm is still in a cast, and it still hurts your ribs when you laugh. But every day you’re gaining more and more independence. Or at least you’re trying to. But Luke won’t let you. 
You try to be patient with him, but the patience is wearing thin. No matter how many times you tell him nicely; he just doesn’t seem to get it. 
This morning he had waited on the lid of the toilet seat while you showered, asking if you needed help or if you were okay approximately one thousand times. 
When you were done, he handed you your towel. By the time you’d wiped your body dry, you noticed that your hair dryer and products were all laid out on top of the counter, as opposed to its usual spot underneath the sink. 
“Let me get that for you,” he says at breakfast, and with a quick reach, the box of cereal you had been reaching for is pulled down by Luke. He hands it over to you with a smile.
Muttering a soft, “Thanks,” you turn to reach for your empty bowl, which has been supplied by, drumroll and you guessed it… Luke. 
After pouring in the dry cereal, you turn to go to the fridge, only to be met by his smiling face again. Only this time, he’s holding the milk.
Wordlessly taking the milk, you make your way back to the cereal, pouring a little in. You don’t fail to notice his arm shoot out and grab the milk to put it away. Maybe once you have your breakfast, you can try and talk to him about hovering. You’re always a little crankier when you’re hungry. And the last thing you want to do is start a fight, Luke is just trying to help after all. Closing your eyes, you take a steadying breath.
Clink. A cup of coffee hits the countertop next to you.
Thud. The creamer is placed directly beside it. 
Clatter. And there’s the spoon.
Damn it, you think. 
“Luke, I can’t take this!!” you cry out, turning to face him, he freezes in the middle of opening the creamer for you. “I can’t breathe with you hovering over me like this. You do everything for me! You get my clothes and my shoes, you fetch the remote, you make my food. How the hell am I ever supposed to get better if you just make me feel so helpless? I just can’t do it Luke. I can’t.”
You exhale a sharp breath.
Luke’s lack of a response makes you even more angry, so you keep going. “I know I may appear like this helpless damsel in distress. But despite what you may believe, I can actually take care of myself! I can survive without you hovering over me!”
“But you almost didn’t,” Luke whispers. He hangs his head, his gaze fixating on the floor. 
All the anger you felt immediately exits your body. In fact, you wonder why the hell you were even mad in the first place. You take a cautious step towards him, and sigh. 
“Luke,” you whisper. 
He refuses to look at you. It makes your heart ache. You hadn’t realized how much he was hurting over this. You just thought he was being overprotective and overbearing. But of course the guilt has still been consuming him. 
“I need you to hear this, okay? I need you to look at me when I say this to you,” you take his hand in yours. 
“Luke, look at me,” you urge. 
He turns, his eyes glistening with tears. “I’m here. I’m right here.”
Luke isn’t the one who breaks. He is usually the one comforting you. And yet here you are– roles reversed for the first time.. His hand squeezes yours gently while he takes a deep breath. 
It takes him a moment, but he nods.
“Baby,” you mumble, “I’m okay. I’m here and I’m okay,”
“You don’t understand,” he says, shaking his head. “You didn’t see– you weren’t there– you didn’t see what I saw. Fuck, Y/N. I’ve never been so scared in my life. I thought- I mean- you were hooked up to all those machines- and you had all these cuts and bruises. You were all bandaged up. Christ, they had to drill a hole into your head! It’s my job to protect you, to take care of you, and I didn’t. I wasn’t there-.”
You launch yourself into him then, your good arm wrapping around his torso and clinging to him tightly. He’s quick to hug you back, anchoring you to him. 
“I thought I’d lost you,” he says, his head resting on top of yours. 
“You didn’t,” you reassure him, shaking your head against his chest. 
“I know,” he finally whispers. “And I am so, so thankful for that.”
You pull back from your hug, holding Luke out in front of you. “Baby, I love you.” You tell him.  “I love you so much and I am so grateful that you’ve been so supportive and helpful during all of this.  But if you don’t stop, I might have to kill you,” your face breaks out into a grin. 
Luke laughs at that. “I don’t like it, but… okay,” he nods in affirmation. 
“Okay?” you ask skeptically. “That means no more having every single meal, snack, and drink waiting for me. No more sitting outside when I’m in the shower. And no more hands on my back when I go down the stairs.” 
Luke huffs. 
“Oh, and no more having my clothes picked out for me either.”
Luke raises an eyebrow. “No more feet or backrubs?” he asks cheekily.
Your eyes widen and you instantly begin to regret your little tantrum. “Baby steps, Alvez. I’m not completely healed yet.”

Lawlight coffee shop au thought that wont leave my brain. Since L knows Light's schedule [its probably the same all of the time because of university] what if Light didn't come in one day. L is outside per usual waiting for Light to show up, and by the time he's supposed to be there, he isn't. Maybe he's late [he isn't late. In all of this time he's never been late.], its not a huge deal. Eventually L realizes that Light is Not Coming and calls him [somehow L got him to exchange phone numbers. Light probably did it out of politeness. L's contact name is probably 'freak from work' or something] because texting has a delayed response and he's curious to hear what made Mr. Perfect and Professional late. A very sick, tired and confused Light picks up the phone without reading the contact because as previously said he is sick, tired, and confused, and as soon as he hears L's voice he recognizes it [because of course he does. This guy comes into his job every day].
L says something about Light not being in work. Light tells him that he's sick and has a fever. L asks if he's taken medicine. Light thinks its a stupid question because obviously he did. why wouldnt he. Its common sense [he just says yes]. L asks what his temperature is because he feels like being nosy about this and Light just says "its not that bad" [it is that bad] which is Suspicious because if it really wasnt that bad he wouldve just said a number. He doesn't press on it much because Light can just hang up on him if he annoys him too hard and that would suck.
Anyway it becomes very clear that the only things Light has done are take his temp, take medicine, and call in sick to work. So L decides hes going to go over there to check on Light [dont ask how he has his address, i dont know] because he sounds like shit and who else is he supposed to bother at the coffee shop. Light objects to this and says that hes fine but L is still going [obviously].
Anyway they hang out and stuff [L has hand sanitizer on him and makes a point of using it way too much he is NOT getting sick] and Light is pissed off about the whole thing [naturally] but at least he isnt being accused of being a wanted criminal so thats a plus[?]. L leaves after a little while and after this i imagine that Light is like "wait. Does he care. Why does this not bother me." And realizes that hes starting to see L as an actual friend and is so disgusted/confused and decides that the sickness is getting to him [its not that] and agressively doesnt think about it or the fact that the feeling doesnt go away after hes healthy. L's already had this realization but it was more like "huh. I guess we are friends." And thats it. Anyway they dont talk about it after this but it bothers Light soooo bad. [If this is innacurate its because its late and im tired but this had to leave my brain. Also i had to retype this because i accidentally closed tumblr after getting really excited about getting a card in proseka so ✌️jeez this is way longer than i thought lol]
THE WAY I WAS ACTUALLY THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING??? like a few days ago, i had this half-baked idea where light doesn't come to work for whatever reason (sickness wasn't my only idea for why he was off like maybe it's sayu's birthday and that's why he needs to go home or something but THIS IDEA. he js off because of sickness yes). so light wakes up with a cold and fever one weekend and he is like fuckkkk and he just calls up the cafe and calls kn sick and asks if mikami can take his shift today as well as do his own. kind of on topic but also not i figured out matsuda + mikami + light's schedule. light takes evening shifts three days on the weekdays and mikami takes the remaining two days along with working with light together for one day. matsuda works the morning and afternoon shifts in the weekdays because he's not a student like light and mikami is. on the weekends, light works the morning shift that kind of falls onto noon (like 9 am to 1 pm) and mikami works from 1 pm to 5 pm. MOVING ON FROM THAT.
so L pulls up to the cafe in his usual morning time in aaturday, expecting to find light there but he is surprised to find that there's another barista, mikami. he js deeply confused like light-kun is the most punctual man he has ever met, he works at the cafe in all of his shifts without fail. and a part of him is. disappointed that he is not catching sight of light. he needs to find out what's going on with him. he enters the cafe, not joining the ordering queue though because the only person he is ever getting service from is light. he kinda just hangs around and he is about to call light to learn why he wasn't here but then, mikami spots him and he recognizes L. mikami's shifts coincide with light's shifts sometimes so he'll sometimes see L, talking to light and getting his order from light. also light complains about him sometimes since mikami and matsuda are most probably the only people he actually talks to and can call 'friends', other than L of course.
so mikami is intrigued, calls L over, says hello, tells him that light talks about him sometimes. he informs L that oh, light is off sick so he is taking over his shift. L is like oh?? he leaves the cafe and goes to give light a call. LIGHT HAS HIM SAVED FREAK FROM WORK, THAT IS SO SO SO CANONNNN. post learning his name, i think the first thing light does is so so smugly, take out his phone, go to his contacts and saves his number as "L". it's such a small move but he is filled with so much pride and so smug about it.
BUT ANYWAYS, calls him up and light answers without much regard. even his voice sounds sore and L pesters him with questions. light is so annoyed and tired about it and L can tell from his tone that though light is Very sick, he isn't doing shit for it. so L doesn't know his address just yet but still, he is going to show up and make sure he actually does something. L is like, "light. give me your address. i am coming to you and light is like ??? no???? why do you need my address???? (he is polite about it though) but L is ADAMANT, he is GOING to come to light's house and they are going back and forth about it but light is completely out of breath and so sore and too tired to even argue about it more so he gives up and is like, "fine. i'll text you my address."
so L pulls up, even though he had been trying so hard to convince light to come to his house to check up on him, he would still be such a bitch about it. he pulls up in a face mask, gloves, hand sanitizer and light rolls his eyes but nevertheless, L does try his best to kind of take care of light. L takes his temperature, fusses over it when he finds that it's so high. makes him hot tea and soup. it's actually kind of soft and tender. L doesn't leave light's side until it's night, when he makes sure that light goes to sleep and only after that, does he leave. light feels this strange feeling of warmth inside him and when L was taking care of him, he was so red and flushed. he doesn't think deeply about this. he blames it on the sickness.
one little, tiny detail. you mentioned in an ask that light has a cat in his apartment and i had this sudden mental image where the cat is kind of rude and antisocial, doesn't like people at all. it took so long for the cat to even warm up to light but as soon as L came into the apartment, the cat was all over him. following him around, rubbing against his leg. all of that.
THIS WAS A LONG POST BUT I HOPE YOU GET MY VISION YES. KEEP SENDING ME MORE ASKS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

Penile/ Phalloplasty Erectile Devices
There are two main types of penile implants:
Inflatable Devices
Semi-Rigid Rods Device
We will go over inflatable devices first. There are two mainly used types of inflatable penile implants used in phalloplasty, as well as cis men with health issues.
What are they?
Inflatable devices are the most common type of penile implant used, especially on phalloplasty procedures.
The two types are:
Three- Piece Penile Implant
Tumblr media
Source
Three-piece inflatable implants use a fluid-filled reservoir implanted under the abdominal wall, a pump [in your main hand side] and a release valve placed inside the scrotum [and slightly located above the pumping mechanism], and two inflatable cylinders located on each side of the penis.
To achieve an erection, you pump the fluid, which is salt water (saline fluid), from the reservoir into the cylinders. Afterward, you release the valve inside the scrotum to drain the fluid back into the reservoir. Usually, this is done by holding a small button on the release valve.
In both devices, the reservoir is filled with salt water (saline water) the day of surgery and remains in the device.
This particular system [three-piece] is how I get an erection/ deflate my erection.
Two - Piece Penile Implant
Tumblr media
Source
The two-piece model works similar to the three- piece, but the fluid reservoir is part of the pump implanted in the scrotum. This device is not the most effective at maintaining total flaccidity (it may sometimes look slightly erect). This device has more limitations on types and styles of penetration/sex. Be sure to ask if there are limitations with the device and its particular model that was implanted.
In both devices, the reservoir is filled with salt water (saline water) the day of surgery and remains in the device.
The last commonly used erectile device is called:
Semi-Rigid Rod Penile Implant
Tumblr media
Source
Semirigid rod devices styles are always firm. The penis can be bent away from the body for sexual activity and toward the body for concealment. There is no inflating or deflating.
A "positionable penile implant" is a semirigid device with a central series of segments that are held together with a spring on each end. It can maintain upward and downward positions better than other semirigid rods can.
What is best for you? Comparison Images:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Source
Most clinics have their own style of procedure that involves a certain type of erectile device. You may or may not have a choice with certain clinics, so make sure you research clinics and make sure they fit with your chosen device and procedure.
This article was written about just implantation of these devices in general, the different devices, and their functions. If you are interested in sexual intercourse, especially penetration, consider where you want to penetrate.
For example, some men are not able to perform anal sex with the two-piece option, while some men are able. Always ask your doctor before leaving the clinic about the sexual acts you can/ cannot perform. You can seriously injure yourself if you try something your device is not capable of.
I hope you enjoyed the article and know a little bit more about the selection of erectile devices for phalloplasty. I hope this helps you make an informed decision.
Stay Golden Everyone ✌️ 💙 💜

WIP Wednesday
Listen. Listen. Listen (can you hear the soft chime of excuses approaching?), I DID NOT mean to start another WIP. But lately every time someone leaves me a comment on Down By The Water it makes me DESPERATE to get back to that universe. I love it so, so much, but I didn't have any actual story ideas to go with that feeling. Then suddenly an idea presented itself and here we are.
It's a follow-up, set between chap 12 and the epilogue (though I'm hoping to also include a flashback to the early days of their relationship, all the way back to that first holiday). All soft, domestic feels, no angst. It may even remain a T, that's how soft this is.
The house is quiet when Alex walks in, which is completely unexpected. This has not been the case even once over the weeks since he went back to work. He drops his work bag on the table by the front door, and the two heavy shopping bags on top of the kitchen table, then goes out in search of his family. He finds them in the bedroom: Henry, lying on his side on top of the duvet, still wearing the same pyjamas he had on when Alex left the apartment that morning; his index finger clutched loosely in baby Tom’s unbelievably tiny hand. The baby is cosy is in his white sleeping bag with the beagle print, also lying on his side, facing Henry. They’re both fast asleep, breathing softly, and there’s a pillow barrier behind Tom to make sure he doesn’t roll off the bed, even though he’s far, far away from the edge of the bed, even though at all of four weeks old rolling over is a skill he has yet to acquire. They look so peaceful, Alex wants to cry, his chest tight with an amount of love he hadn't known was possible. He pulls his phone out and flicks it to silent to make sure it doesn’t wake them up when he takes a picture, then walks out of the bedroom, shutting the door behind himself, and makes his way back to the kitchen.
I fucking love them as dads.
Thanks for tagging me today @celaestis1 @kiwiana-writes @cha-melodius and I know I missed a few from Sunday and last week's WIP Weds, timezones, etc sorry about that. Tagging @inexplicablymine @happiness-of-the-pursuit @suseagull04 @tintagel-or-cockleshells @dumbpeachjuice @affectionatelyrs @14carrotghoul @cultofsappho @stereopticons @daisymae-12 (again, sorry about time ✌️) and anyone who might want to join in! ❤️
Now back to trying to reach my NaNo word target 😫

i had no idea there were more than two parts for red sky…
could you tell us what you had planned for it if you won’t write it anymore?
rip I guess you're an ao3 reader? I gotta upload the remaining chapters like actually 😭
yes I can try to give an outline based on what I can remember!! there were actually supposed to be three parts to this series:
red sky at morning was meant to keep following the series until the beginning of S3 (so when they just get to the prison)
a oneshot sequel called goodbye days was supposed to cover that one arc in S3 where daryl nearly leaves with merle
then a longer sequel called dark side of the moon was supposed to cover everything from the fall to the prison to alexandria, with terminus being the narrative focal point (😬)
the major events for the remaining chapters of red sky are as follows:
(warnings: pregnancy, sa, abortion, domestic abuse discussions)
lori reveals to you that she is pregnant with shane's child; she also reveals to you that shane assaulted her in the cdc and you become severely distrustful of him
you try to help lori with safely getting an abortion (rather than letting her attempt the self-induced one in canon); this would involve trying to get to a clinic in atlanta, which daryl strongly doesn't want you to do because it's too dangerous
rick discovers these abortion plans and blows up at you (just like how he blew up at lori in canon); this, in turn, provokes daryl into fighting with rick and lori (who he is none too happy with as he gets the impression that she has just been using you)
eventually this escalates into an argument between you and daryl (because you need him to calm down but you always just seem to accidentally piss him off 😔✌️), where he blows up severely at you and makes both you and sophia jump
daryl notices how much he's scared you both and essentially leaves the farm for the next 24ish hours to cool off
this is a crucial turning point for the both of you. for daryl, he has to confront his anger management problems for the first time, processing the fact that he has traits of the men who abused him (his father and his brother), and he comes to realise that he is afraid of hurting you in the way he has been hurt
on your end, sophia (herself a victim of abuse from her father) is voicing a fear that you desperately want to reject: is daryl an abusive man? can you trust him? if you are in love with him (this is when you realise you have feelings for him btw lol), will the two of you end up being as broken as her parents?
the answer is no! after a few days, daryl returns and apologizes very clearly to you for yelling at you, and vows that "he won't be that kind of man" to you [as in, the kind of man who neglects and disappoints his loved ones/family], and that instead he'll treat you right
this isn't a romantic confession, but it is supposed to ~feel~ romantic. it also kind of cements your relationship as a very intimate and soul-baring one, where daryl wants to be better for you... because he loves you... but he doesn't know that yet lol
further cementing this emotional intimacy: later on, daryl finally allows you to look at his arrow wound, which leads to you seeing his back - which is covered in scars from his father's abuse. he reveals to you that he was beaten as a child, and this is when you get a more complete understanding of him as a person
anyway. back to all the drama with rick and lori and shane! as I said before, you fucking HATE shane. bro cannot be trusted in your eyes. on the other hand, rick and lori now trust you a lot because you clearly demonstrated that you had their best interests at heart. (also now that lori is pregnant and actually intends on giving birth, they literally need you for prenatal care purposes, so 👍)
consequently, when shane tries the whole setup at the end of S2 where he pretends that randall(?) ran into the woods and they all need to go track him down... you call bullshit. you tell rick that shane should stay at the farm with the rest of you and that rick can take glenn and daryl instead, and rick actually listens to you.
at this point, it is abundantly clear to shane that you have it out for him so the two of you get INTO IT. the girls are fightingggg. t-dog intervenes and an altercation occurs where a gun is somehow accidentally fired. eventually the two of you manage to handcuff shane and lock him into the barn (lol).
the gunshot has the same effect as the original finale of S2 - the walkers nearby hear it and all converge on the farm. everyone needs to evacuate and gets split up during the process. you take the time to free shane from his cuffs, but he runs off after that. shane survives but his whereabouts are unknown at the end of S2.
at some point between this point and the prison, you and daryl get together. truthfully I never actually figured when/how. I know you definitely made the first move because his undersocialized ass could never 👍
in addition to shane surviving, lori ALSO does not die during S3 because you actually give her a proper c-section! sorry to the lori haters but miss doctor has a hippocratic oath to maintain 😔 but also note that the reader has been haunted the whole time by her inability to save the babies in the NICU at the outset of the apocalypse, but now you are able to bring baby judith safely into the world and keep her momma alive. it is a good ending, lori haters. I promise!
goodbye days
(no major warnings)
this was basically my way of covering the prison arc without fully covering the prison arc, which I couldn't do specifically because they got a fucking swine flu outbreak in the show that was extremely significant to the plot. miss doctor would not have let it happen though ahhldjdkfjajdsk she knows not to keep sick pigs and humans in such close proximity together 👍
anyway this does actually cover off on some significant plot points. the story reveals that shane is now at woodbury with merle and the governor; he is basically one of the governor's henchmen. incidentally, while lori survived her c-section in this timeline, she dies because of some kind of an attack from the governor, which shane is implied to have been involved in. merle implies that he ran off afterward, and now his whereabouts are unknown.
however, the main crux of the story is not shane LMAO. the actual focus is that one episode where daryl left the prison to stay with merle (who glenn did not allow into the prison). needless to say, you are gutted by it because it means you have to break up with the love of your life. daryl finds that he cannot simply abandon his brother on the spot and gives you a time/meeting place two days from now - you can meet him there either to join him or to say goodbye.
this is a terrible time 💔 for you 💔 and also the rest of the prison 💔 because they have to listen to you cry and wail over your impending breakup 💔 and it is especially sad for sophia because lowkey you and daryl are her godparents. this man is giving her hella abandonment issues atm
anyway you do come to a realization eventually that daryl has only left with merle because merle is family - but equally, you are his family. not just you, but the entire prison. so when you meet him at the 48 hour time point, you give him a bunch of supplies and food, but you don't go with him, and you don't say goodbye - you tell him instead that you'll wait for him at home.
daryl is very surprised by this. he does eventually go back to the prison (as per canon) and he asks, then, how you figured he'd come back. you tell that it's because "I know you're not the type of man who'd run out on your family or hurt us like that" and it's a big narrative deal okay I am doing those season 1 callbacks . DARYL SAID HE WOULDN'T BE THAT KIND OF MAN TO YOU AND HE ISN'T!!!!!!
okay onto terminus. this is where shit starts getting kinda unhinged.
dark side of the moon
(MAJOR trigger warnings for rape, pregnancy, miscarriage, and shane walsh lol. also cannibalism because... terminus)
so the governor blows up the prison and everyone scatters. daryl and beth get paired off together like in canon; you and sophia are once again together as well! unfortunately, your S4 time together is much worse than your S2 time.
possibly the most agonizing thing about this time around is that you are pregnant with daryl's child (like month 2, so you aren't showing yet), which ordinarily would be a GOOD thing!!!!! but not when the baby daddy and the rest of the group is literally missing and your home has been exploded rip. daryl also does not know that you're pregnant btw my apologies this is already so messy
I can't remember the details anymore but I think there were a bunch of biker jackasses in S4 who tried to assault carl and I think daryl rode with them at one point? I don't remember. anyway, they unfortunately come across the reader and sophia at one point. like every twd fic in the fandom's heyday, there is an attempted sexual assault on the reader.
unlike every twd fic, as well as the actual show itself, they actually do rape her. I hate this "attempted rape" as a plot device kind of trope that was literally everywhere in both the show AND the fandom lol and thus I decided to go all in for my own story... apologies for making you suffer due to my creative whims.
anyway. what ultimately saves the reader is actually shane, who has been living in the area and I suppose just kind of following the movements of you and sophia ever since the prison scattered? he intervenes, stops the rape, and helps sophia kill the assailant.
this puts you into a very weird conundrum. you do not want shane around because you remember that he is a psycho who tried to kill his best friend and also attempted to rape his best friend's wife. on the other hand, shane just saved you from a rapist, and you are not in a position to be rejecting his help.
ultimately, it is sophia who convinces you to let shane stay with the two of you. she has no visibility into all the drama with lori and rick in S2, so she has no reason to dislike shane. what she DOES remember of shane is that when she was a little girl in that quarry, he was the police officer who was always trying to look out for her and her mom because he knew something wasn't right with her dad. she has an exceedingly good impression of him and weirdly enough? he wants to live up to her perception of him as a good person.
you really could care less what shane wants like you still want this man to choke lmao but sophia feels better with him around and you're additionally having. a mental breakdown from the various traumatic things you're going through so you're like "sure he can stay 👍"
so the three of you make your way to terminus, and the whole fic becomes "how the fuck do I as a pregnant person stay healthy during a zombie apocalypse!" and it is very, very sad because it makes you think of lori, and it makes shane think of lori, and he gets acutely emotional over her, which intensely disgusts you at first but eventually you come to realise that shane regrets his actions when it comes to her.
he also develops this strange fixation on you. I don't want to call it feelings per se, but I think he thinks they're feelings lol and it makes him very obsessive over keeping you safe/alive. it is literally because he is projecting all his regrets over lori on you, which is intensely uncomfortable, but you tolerate it because you are not in a position to reject his help.
unfortunately, right before you get to terminus, you start to miscarry. shane manages to get you there, and they provide medical aid, but at great moral cost: while you are incapacitated, he agrees on your behalf that the three of you will join the terminus community. later on, the two of you show your commitment to terminus' ideals by sharing a meal with its leaders and eating human flesh.
anyway it isn't all that bad 😎 because when rick & co are captured at terminus it means that you and shane (and sophia) can actually help them escape. so shane sort of gets into the group's good graces.
rick does NOT want shane around tho godbless. he wants to kill him legit. but sophia vouches for him, and unfortunately you now have to vouch for him too. so shane rejoins the group (on thin ice) and shockingly doesn't cause problems. (I will also say right now that negan kills him instead of glenn later 👍 yes that is my long game reason for keeping shane around. TAKE HIM, NOT GLENN!!)
you, however, are causing problems in your relationship </3 it is not your fault but you have a lot of very severe intimacy problems with daryl. you have a lot of difficulty telling him that you were pregnant, and that you were assaulted, and also that you had to fucking eat human flesh. though he does figure out the last part pretty quickly by himself and literally does not care (lol). he also easily figures out that you were assaulted, but he understands that he needs to let you talk about that at your own pace.
I don't think you are able to properly open up to daryl about everything until you're settled in alexandria - when you actually feel like you've actually made a home together with him. this is partly because you've otherwise been too focused on survival, but also because you've been afraid that he will see you differently after having learned of all these things that you were forced to go through, and that he may not want you anymore. you are a very different person from who you were at the outset of red sky at morning; the apocalypse has changed you in a way that scares you.
but - after hearing daryl refer to your shared house as a home, and hearing him say repeatedly that you are his family, his wife, his own, and also being repeatedly counselled by sophia and carol that things will be okay - you do remember that daryl promised that he wouldn't be the type of man who would leave you or hurt you. so very, very quietly - under a red sky at night - you start to tell him about the daughter you would have had, and how she kicked every time you whispered daryl's name to her, and how sophia named her rose after the cherokee roses that daryl used to give her mother hope.
(yes. we are obsessed with narrative in this household. and with keeping glenn alive)

Sorry, Wrong Comms! : Hunter x Medic!Reader [Chapter 11]
Tumblr media
Warnings and Information: Intended audience is 13+ (18 if you squint). Should know the drill on my use of Mando'a, italics and my headcanons by now if you've been following along with the AU series this far. Star Wars and real-world swearing. Can you call it a road trip if there's no cars in Star Wars? Who knows, who cares. Batch and Medic!Reader go on a road trip back to that mining planet so the brothers can have a nice little day to use their skill sets in peace and quiet away from the Empire. More domestic(-ish) moments. Only days into dating Hunter and basically like one of the family, lucky lucky you. If you don't try to embarrass your siblings in front of their significant others, are you really even siblings? Someone figured out where to make a "nap nest" in the Marauder to escape the heat? Sure why not, we don't know the exact layout of the attack shuttle so fuck it we vibe. ❤️✌️ Couple of suggestive lines but overall this is just me finding excuses for fluff/soft content. Batchers need a break and so do you. 
Word-count: 5,479
Tumblr media
Trp-trp-trp-trp!
Scraping wet food out of the can, [____] glances down at the light-furred critter winding eagerly around her feet, the sound of the Tooka's curved nails tip-tipping against the floor as she prances and paces in tight circles. "I'm going as fast as I can without making a mess, silly!"
Rorw! M'oww!
She sets the plate down along with the ceramic bowl with water just as there's a knock at the door. The hour, exactly on the dot, Hunter said he'd be by to walk her to the shipyards. "Spoon, you be good for me, okay girl? I'll be home before dinner. Sounds like that's him." Straightening out the hem of an older, comfortable shirt she won't mind getting dirty, she plucks the emergency medkit off the counter as she walks past it. "Be right there!"
Hunter doesn't hide the visual head-to-toe sweep when she opens the door to him, the dark ink that makes up his tattoo of the half-skull making it very easy to notice when he starts to smile at the sight of her. "Hey… Good morning." He looks bright-eyed in a way beyond possibly being awake for an hour or two longer than the medic. She'd slept in pretty late - compared to the days she was working at least - since she'd gone home late after dinner. It was difficult to say no to Omega's suggestion to watch a holofilm once the leftovers were tucked away in the cold-unit and dishes were washed up.
Besides, more excuses to remain close to one another and enjoy the company, the chance to hold one another close while she laid out her thoughts for how to spend tomorrow? (Distract themselves from the collective thoughts of the Imperial at her health practice.) Would they really have passed that up?
She smiles back, threading her arm in the offered space to walk arm in arm once she's locked the door. "G'morning, Hunter." She realizes he's clean-shaven when he moves in close to peck her cheek with a sweet little sound. "Sleep well, mesh'la?"
"Mhm. You?" she asks.
"Probably better than Wrecker and Crosshair…" Hunter chuckles, sighing just slightly. "They were pretty excited, y'know. They have a chance to show off, so there's a chance they'll get a bit competitive like the old days." he warns her; not that [____] needed the reminder that his brothers' habit of competition had survived the war.
"Still a little confused how exactly they competed with such different skill sets at times." [____] admits and laughs softly under her breath as they pass one of the management-personnel of the shipyards, the top fin of the Marauder easy to spot, "But siblings always find a way, don't they? So I suppose that's enough of an explanation."
Ducking under the wing of another ship just before they get to the Omicron-class ship, the two of them are greeted by the sight of his brothers waiting for them, and Omega breaks away from helping Tech with last-minute supply checks to greet her friend. "[____]!" Ordinarily someone would be warning her for forgetting (once again) that shipyards were no place to be running around, but she doesn't go too far before the medic catches her with a laugh and hoists her up in her arms.
"Good morning to you too, sweetie! Looks like someone's excited for today!"
"Yeah, we get to spend it with you!" Omega giggles, lacing her arms around the grown woman's neck and shoulders. Tech was pointedly looking away to conceal a grimace of annoyance, likely having lost track of what he was counting within a very full crate. Oh dear. Lowering the youngster, [____] kindly reminds the girl she was in the middle of helping one of her brothers with a wink and loving ruffle of her hair.
"And as much as I love a good hug from the galaxy's cutest little heat-seeking missile, you were helping your brother count something important from the look of things before you ran off." The crate was marked "SNACKS" in bold, sloppy Aurebesh, but something told her the contents inside were most definitely not bursting with flavor.
Omega's hands wring and twist the hem of her shirt. "Ri-right, sorry Tech! I just got excited."
"It's fine Omega, I understand..." Tech smiles softly, finally nodding in greeting in [____]'s direction to be polite, "I just lost track of how many I've already count-"
"Twenty-four!" Omega declares confidently, swinging off [____]'s wrist with a slight laugh.
"Oh, excellent, I was only one off. Twenty-five, six… twenty-eight. Perfect. Full crate." Lid latched tightly, the container is pawned off to Wrecker, excitedly prancing in place, so he can haul it up the ramp into the shuttle. "Awh right! Can't wait!"
[____] gives Hunter a questioning and amused look. Did Wrecker really have twenty-eight explosives in that crate? "Don't worry, those snacks aren't any spicier than the way Cross likes his fruit and spice-dough pastries." he assures her, nudging Tech and Omega to get into the ship and get things running now that Echo's called from the cockpit that the shipyard crew has given them the go-ahead to lift-off with the rest of the morning rush. They ought to hurry before the skyway was choked with ships.
Crosshair scoffed lazily, collecting his case for the 773 Firepuncher with a lifted brow and a gentle shoulder slugging. "Big words for the guy who didn't make the cut for galaxy's number one cutest heat-seeking missile."
"I'm okay with that." Hunter retorts in a gruffer voice, returning the slug with a touch more effort. He's the last up the ramp after the medic, so he hits the proper button on the panel to draw in the ramp. "I'll gladly settle for being number two." he adds with a smug, confident expression. Oh Maker, her face feels warm, suddenly. Something about Hunter's moments of confidence in himself could be so attractive.
Tech calls a final warning from the cockpit as the engines rumble and burst to life. "Ready for lift-off! Strap in, this will not be very smooth, I'm afraid!"
Finding a crash seat for herself, [____] gets her medkit secured and carefully straps in. Hunter joins her shortly after, having helped Omega get settled in in the cockpit's seats. (Until she was a little more acclimated to a bumpier than average take-off, she could get airsick being further back in the ship.) Crosshair takes a seat directly across from his brother, a devious smirk washing over every feature.
Oh boy, here comes trouble. Hunter senses it too, preliminarily rolling his eyes after securing the shoulder harness. "What is it, Cross?" He's certain he's going to wish he hadn't asked, so he chooses a non-Basic language to get this over with and spare [____] the potential for embarrassment. "Out with it."
Adopting the same language, Cross purrs delicately around the toothpick with a mirthful smile. "Shame you can't act out that bunkroom fantasy you had as a cadet, Hunter." He only groans regretfully, ignoring the provocative grins from the sniper and the strongman once he's gotten seated. "And I shouldn't have asked…"
She looks sideways at him and across the ship at his brothers, and her later reply only makes Wrecker laugh harder. Hunter's mortified because forgot she understands this language thanks to the time she was employed at her first of two health centers. That smirk tells Hunter he should have worried about himself being embarrassed.
Kark…
"Now, now, Crosshair. We both know he'd want a door he can lock before anything else." [____] croons in a salacious voice.
Hunter sinks further into the seat in a way that has nothing to do with the spacecraft picking up speed once hitting clear skies.
Kark!
Tumblr media
"That looks like a mining town." Omega marvels, pointing to something she sees out of the viewport.
"That's because it is," Echo replies, reaching overhead to hit some control as part of the landing sequence, "that's the mountain [____] fell down, actually. Thank the Force she wasn't badly hurt at least." Omega shudders, shrinking back against her seat until the landing struts have made contact with the surface of the desert planet. "I know that she said it was more of an uncontrolled slide than a fall after she slipped on loose shale, but still… That must've been scary…"
[____] and Hunter briefly glanced at one another by chance as they gathered their things. The twisting expression of torment in his face when his eyes found that fading evidence of her partially unsuccessful exploit left no doubt in [____]'s mind that Hunter had some really strong what if? thoughts surging right now. Maybe the very same ones she'd had that day when making her way home.
What if she'd hit her head and ended up severely concussed? If she'd been badly hurt, would the wildlife here pose a threat to her? (What wildlife was out here, actually? She didn't know; hopefully no big carnivores.) How quickly would help have come to her if she'd given Echo the SOS; that unfortunately yes, their "favorite medic" had gotten herself hurt?
Was Echo serious about that… is she really their favorite medic?
"Wow. Hardly a cloud in the sky…" Wrecker rumbles with wonder as he's the first to step off the Havoc Marauder. "Good thing we brought so much water and stuff for shade! But first, needa put on all the sun-stuff before someone ends up lookin' like a roasted porg again; c'mere you!" He plucks his sister off her feet with frightening ease as she tries to skip past him after Tech, who'd wandered off ahead to inspect the desert vegetation. She giggles and struggles in mild protest, swearing she can put the protective lotion on herself without any help. "Nuh-uh, we're not repeatin' last time, Omega. Fried the back of your poor neck 'cause you forgot."
"But what about Te-!" she tries asking, gasping when Wrecker accidentally tickles her by moving her hair off the back of her neck to apply the sun protectant. He apologizes, large fingers making quick work of the application process before she's thoroughly covered and she can take it from there. "Awh, someone'll drag him back eventually if he's not coming back on his own. Y'know how Techie is."
"Don't be stingy on the lotion, sweetie," [____] encourages her, "I brought plenty."
Echo laughs, taking one of the many bottles from the crate she and Hunter had collected from her clinic last night as part of the preparation for today with a grateful smile. "Benefits of knowing a damn good medic." He tosses his head in a nodding motion at Cross, "Mind helping me out? Goes a lot faster with two hands." Both chuckle when Echo whirrs the scomplink attachment once for good measure to emphasize his point.
"Sure thing."
"Hey… uh-uh." [____] chides Hunter softly for quickly smearing the sun cream across his face before reaching behind his head to apply it to his neck, "Come here. I want to make sure that nice tattoo of yours is properly covered so it stays nicer longer." Her fingertips carefully paint a thin layer of the lotion over the dark ink of the half-skull on the left side of his face, glazing it in a coat of white before tenderly massaging it into his face so it absorbs into the skin. The whole ordeal, Hunter's keen eyes are trained on her, watching her with rapt attention. She'd become the galaxy's most interesting spectacle to Hunter since freeing himself from refraining from expressing how he realized he felt about her. Becoming braver, bolder, to watch her with adoration, without much shame if she caught him staring.
Her kindness, her compassion, her soothing, nurturing nature that served as the groundwork for her inner and outer beauty had him so enamored shortly from the start, perhaps.
And she… she's wearing the Nabooian pendant.
How in the stars did he miss that? It looked so beautiful in the sunlight. She looked so beautiful in the sunlight. "Something on my face, or…?" she asks softly, teasingly as she takes the container again and carefully applies some to her own face. "Am I missing something?"
"Mm-m." he confirms shortly and leans in to pepper her in sweet little kisses, feeling bold, daring, in this moment.
"Ew," Omega giggles brightly behind them when Hunter grimaces reflexively after hitting a patch of lotion, "I bet that didn't taste very good."
"No… Definitely went a lot better in my head…" he murmurs in answer, pulling on the collar of his civvies to clean the opaque residue from his lips. "Sorry."
She chuckles sympathetically, watching as Wrecker tramped up the gangplank and said he was gonna start getting the charges ready once he had them out of the ship, "Someone better ask Techie if there's a safe place to set these bad boys off! Don't want any serious debris comin' our way!" She agrees to go ask, taking the lotion with her to gently interrupt Tech's deep analysis if she can. He's hunched over in a squat, studying the roots of the shrub-tree now, muttering scientific names from the sound of things.
Recognizing her by the shadow she casts, Tech greets her with an enthusiastic question. "Aren't these fascinating, [____]?"
"Gotta know what I'm looking at, Tech," she laughs lightly, trading his datapad for the bottle of lotion, "and after you put this on, Wrecker wants your input on where he can safely plant the explosives to get the day kicked off with a bang." He takes the lotion with a sheepish smile. He’d gotten so ahead of himself he forgot to explain what he was looking at first. "Ah, of course-'' Tech murmurs apologetically, "These are ucca brevifolia - common name “shu'ah tree”. They have thick, waxy leaves that are capable of retaining critical moisture through prolonged drought that are protected against herbivores with a mild, serrated, outer edge. It serves as a deterrent to grazers.”
“Oh yeah? Is that an adaptation to grazing wildlife or something they’ve always had?” [____] asks with genuine interest as she walks with him back to the ship. Tech grinned appreciatively, a little relieved, as always, when someone wanted to know what was currently of-interest to him without brushing him off. (When he’d given Hunter’s letter a final read-through to catch any errors Hunter worried there being, he was surprised by some of the additional observations his brother had made about [____]’s friendship with him.) “I haven’t gotten that far in the reading I was doing, but I can determine such a thing once I’ve assisted Wrecker.” he admits with an offering, carefully lifting his goggles so someone can help him apply everything without squinting in the sunlight.
Wrecker looks from Tech to [____] with a curious smile, settling the crate at his feet to wait while she helps his brother carefully distribute the protective coverage around his eyes as Hunter helps out by holding Tech’s goggles for the time being. “Whatcha talking about?”
“Oh, Techie was telling me those trees out there,” she pointed over Tech’s shoulder with a free hand to indicate to everyone what their brother had wandered off to inspect, “the ones that have the shaggy-looking trunks and those red-tipped, blade-like leaves. I think they’re kinda pretty, in a way.”
Adding with a nod, Tech turns his face to the left to speak with Wrecker, “Which, once I’ve helped you, Wrecker, I can return to researching to answer her question once we’ve gotten the day ‘kicked off with a bang’. Ack, that tickles…” Wrecker chortles alongside Hunter, stitching his arms across his chest with a warm smile.
This was gonna be a fun day for everyone.
Tumblr media
“HAHAHA! That last one could bring down the whole mountain!” Wrecker whooped, caught up in the excitement of planting the last of his charges at the foothills of the mountain the mining town is perched on as he gleefully jogs back to the safety zone.
Tech shakes his head as he ducks back into the ship. “Seems like a gross exaggeration for the amount of-”
“Hah! Dumb ol’ mining town deserves it!” Wrecker declares decidedly, tossing his head at Hunter knowingly, which only makes him chuckle and shake his head with a sigh, “Wrecker… Are you going to try to teach a whole mountain a lesson for hurting [____] when she slipped?”
“Nah,” Wrecker laughs, idly tossing and catching the primer, “not unless you want to.”
[____] and Omega exchange glances and shake their heads softly for more or less the same reason. "Boys…" they agree with a knowing sigh. The explosive charge wasn't going to be enough to bring down a boomtown mountain even if it was riddled with hollowed-out passageways and tunnels, but it wouldn't stop the brothers from arguing - playfully - if it would or not. The idea of showing an inanimate object who's boss after her mistake of not minding her footing was at least a little endearing and nothing she was stranger to either. The first time the medic had been invited to the Batcher's housing, she'd knocked on the door in the middle of Wrecker's tirade against a chair Omega had tripped over.
"Think you can get away with hurtin' MY sister, HUH?! You think you're tough?!"
"Hi... Did I come at a bad time, Hunter?"
"Er, no, it's just- You're fine. H-he's yelling at a chair Omega tripped over to try to cheer her up; make her laugh.”
“Aw, that’s nice of him. Is she hurt?”
Hunter shook his head, perhaps for the fifth time at Wrecker’s insistent offering. “No, really, I- I’m good, Wreck. Kind of you to offer, but it’s not really my thing. You can ask someone else.” He was more interested in just watching his brothers have fun, relax, and do their own things. More interested in listening to Tech rattle off a parts list inside the ship as he worked on repairing something, expressing terse disinterest to Wrecker. More interested in hearing the languid sweep of a cleaning cloth over a trusty 773 Firepuncher as Crosshair made sure sand didn’t settle into the grooves and crevices in the weaponry. Comforted by the aroma of sun-warmed cotton and skin from a pace away where Echo sat, happily soaking in the sun for some much-desired phototherapy. Amused by Wrecker’s delight in this opportunity to blow something up that was coming to a close as soon as he found someone to take him up on his offer. Entertained by Omega and [____] trailing their fingers in the sand of the desert planet, an endless, completely reusable canvas for their creativity together.
Stolen, precious memories the Empire could never take from him no matter how hard they tried. Acts of resistance in their own right. A refusal to be stifled, to be silenced, to comply blindly.
Man, someone in the Empire would hate knowing a stolen crate of their precious bombs were being used to blow craters in the desert sand for the hell of it. That Wrecker had scoffed over the fancy, intimidating exteriors and pulled them apart to scrutinize some sap’s work.
“Hah, that’s pathetic. I’ve made better bombs with half as many wires that I secured so much better than that under pressure! Tech, look!”
“... pathetic. Their wiring is so sloppy.”
“Tha’s what I said!!”
Omega lifts her head from her current work of art in the sand, brows lifted in question when [____] waves down the offer. “Can I set off the last charges?” Initially, Hunter wasn’t sure he liked that idea. Omega understood perfectly well that the vode didn’t mess with bombs of any sort that Wrecker or Tech cobbled together, and her first experience trying to disable a smoke bomb nearly a year ago with Wrecker’s tutelage had ended in, well, a smokeshow on Bracca.
“You let the kid try to disarm a bomb…? That has to be one of your dumbest-”
“C’mon, I’m not an idiot, Crosshair… I’m not gonna let her train with a live explosive. And would you stop calling her ‘the kid’ already? Omega has a name, just like you.”
“Whatever.”
“No, not whatever-”
“Hunter, don’t! Enough fighting, you two! We all just got our chips out for kriff sake!”
Omega looks to Hunter for permission when Wrecker hesitates. Deferring to the leader. But he wasn’t just their leader anymore, he was their brother. He was trying to be their brother more than a low-ranking commanding officer. They didn’t need his permission for every little thing, but it was so habitual. For all of them.
Good soldiers…
“Hunter, can I?” Omega asks softly.
“I’ll leave that up to Wrecker to decide.” he gives Wrecker a slow nod. I trust you, it says.
… follow orders.
“I’d feel better if we did it together, Omega. Jus’ to be safe, y’know. C’mere.” Omega took Wrecker’s outstretched hand and walked forward to get in-range of the charge with the primer, listening to his instructions intently as they walked a few paces closer to the old mountain mining town. Crosshair called over his shoulder into the Marauder that Tech might wanna watch this one, carefully laying aside his rifle. Echo sat up and climbed out of his low seat to move back towards their ship out of an abundance of caution. Hunter and [____] scooched closer together on the old blanket now that Omega had gotten up, leaning comfortably against one another. Hands finding the other’s, clasped comfortably.
“This oughta be good.” she murmurs fondly, head against his shoulder.    
“THREE!” Wrecker called; the signal for all spectators to brace themselves for the noise to come. Three seconds to detonation and total, momentary chaos.
Cross calls them rib-rattlers. She can understand why. A thick plume of dust, debris and spent powder smoke shoots high into the blue expanse of the sky above the seven of them. They can feel the shockwave through the ground below their feet and booming into their chest cavities. Omega shrieks with delighted laughter alongside Wrecker, both of them whooping on their way back to the ship to watch as the dust cloud begins to disperse and dissipate with the gentle breeze that’s picked up across the arid plain.
“Not bad,” Cross approves, nodding to Wrecker and Omega as they get closer to the ship, approvingly before glancing around at his datapad for the time, “think I’ll go sneak a quick break from the heat. Then I hope you’re up for a- Hunter?”
Hunter’s suddenly on his feet in a flash, instinctually and visibly bristling at the sight of a second plume building and rising into the sky from the side of the mountain. The blast in the foothills has one last trick to play; one of the buildings nestled in the winding, serpentine road that had been worked into the stony surface of the natural formation has been knocked from its crumbling foundation and has become mobile. The entire structure is slowly sliding down the slope. It looks like a tiny, very old-fashioned and simple prison house; probably would have held no more than four cells for the roughest and rowdiest in a boomtown.
“Hunter, it’s okay.” [____] says soothingly as she too sees the little building coming down the mountain. “It’s coming to a stop on the next level of the switch-back. We’re not in any danger so far away.” she reminds him, putting a comforting hand on his back, his shoulder. “It’s okay. We’re okay. We’re safe. Right?”
It’s about a moment before he’s satisfied that the little structure sliding down the mountainside is in fact not going to move again before he settles himself down, softening his stance, feeling the fine hairs on the back of his neck lay flat once more the longer [____] keeps her hands on him, the longer her heartbeat remains so steady. “R-right…”
Crosshair cautiously utters under his breath to avoid breaking this newly established sense of calm for his brother that he’s going to find a snap-activated cold pack and hide out from the heat for roughly twenty minutes, and they’d front row seats to another impressive spectacle.
Twenty minutes of calm would do them all some good.
Well, calm as “calm” could be with his brothers. But, Crosshair supposed he wouldn’t have it any other way.
Tumblr media
It was just a simple snap-pack and he couldn’t find the blasted thing, Hunter could hear Crosshair tramping through the whole of the Marauder, opening the odd cabinet here and there in his search. Just like he couldn’t find the spare blankets or pillows. Or the misplaced tool when the box tipped over as he helped Tech shift everything outside.
"Hunterrrr… I can't find it!"
He sighs heavily, finally and reluctantly pushing himself off the edge of the old blanket for the third time to assist his brother. "Do I seriously have to find everything around here?" He just wants to spend a little time in the sun, dammit. Some time to settle his head after that last detonation, and the ear-splitting clatter of tools after Tech had tripped over his own toolbox after moving everything so people could escape the heat in peace. (“Apologies! Don’t worry: I’m not hurt!”)
Tech was now working on his project in the shadow cast by the bulk of the Marauder's body, a long cable snaking out of the cockpit plugged into some radio-like device so he could continue listening along to an educational program about the insectoid Yalbec species. (No, she didn't want to know what happened on Yalbec Prime apparently.)
Echo just chuckles softly as his younger brother begrudgingly trudges past him to the ship for the fifth time in as many minutes. "Hey, I'd ask for help finding something from an expert tracker too." Poor guy just sighs, trotting up the steps to the side-ramp a little faster now after asking Tech to turn down the radio a notch. "Shut up…"
"You're a good brother, Hunter!" the ARC calls after him. Sometimes, try as he might, it was harder than other days to turn off that part of his conditioning to lead and look out for his brothers all the time. While letting go of leadership and rank was getting better with practice, it was that gnawing, almost screaming urge to constantly be on high alert and let his brothers mind themselves that was harder to wrangle.
What was it Crosshair had teased Hunter for once? Something about being paternal?
She wasn't quite sure what that remark was off the top of her head while she was more concerned with making sure she had a proper eye on Wrecker while he was moving heavy stones out in the dry heat of the desert. Thank the stars they brought so much water, no one would run the risk of being dehydrated at least, she thought as she watched Wrecker take another pull from his hydro pack. (Her bigger concern was heatstroke or overexertion.) Looked like he was crafting a makeshift bench for the targets and novelty props Cross had brought with them so he could show off his sharpshooting skills; the whole reason [____] had hinted to Hunter she could think of a good excuse to stay away from her clinic today last night over dinner.
(She thought of that letter often, and had read it last night before going to sleep as a way of warding away any dreams of the Imperial forces at her clinic.)
Wrecker sat down under the shade of a low shrub-tree after she flashed him a flat palm that morphed into a cupping motion with a turn of the wrist.
Rest.
"I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't laugh," [____] chuckles softly behind that same raised hand to stifle her laughter, "but is Crosshair getting whiny?" She's no stranger to the often high and nasally whines of a tired tot or a fussy baby thanks to her professional experience, and the hint of impatience in Cross's voice is enough to remind her of the little ones she's treated over the years since completing medical training.
Echo just chuckles before adjusting his sun shades. Omega glances at the medic's time device on her wrist. "It's around the time Crosshair naps at home some days. He sleeps in bursts." Her voice drops into that timid, nervous whisper when she’s afraid someone will hear one of her inner observations that might not be taken so well if said out loud. “He can get… a little cranky in the heat, too…”
“Ahh…” she replies, understanding now, “I see. But hey, he’s got the right idea to escape the heat. Wouldn’t be a bad idea at all to do the same thing. Oh kriff, that’s right; should I tell ‘em they’re not gonna find any snap-packs in there, or do you wanna do it?” [____] had told them while they were traveling and hadn’t quite reached the planet that she was going to add the packs she found in their tiny infirmary aboard the attack shuttle to her medbag so they’d be in easy reach. (She couldn’t blame them for forgetting she did that when she’d done it herself until Echo diligently touched up his UV coverage with more lotion just a moment ago.)
“You better,” Omega tells the medic with a smile, “I’m gonna go get Wrecker. He looks tired.”
[____] nods. “Good idea.” Climbing up the ramp a step at a time, she’s got two snap-activated packs in her opposite hand that are a very welcome sight for the sniper.
“Oh, Maker, forgot they wouldn’t be on the ship. Thanks, doc.”
“I forgot too, sorry boys.” [____] offers an apologetic smile, peering around the marksman and tracker at a mess on the floor between all the sleeping racks near the back of the ship and gunner’s mount. “What’s all that?” It looked like a rumpled nest of blankets and pillows on the cool durasteel floor.
“Omega calls them ‘nap nests’,” Crosshair offers, biting down a yawn (Hunter less successfully) and thanking her for the rapidly chilling pack, “or, somethin’ like that… And how come you’re suddenly tired, vod?” Hunter shrugs. He’d truly slept fine last night, but he felt pretty tired being in the ship, suddenly. Admitted to feeling a little lightheaded, too. Neither [____] or Cross liked the sound of that. “That doesn’t sound good, vod.”
“Have you been drinking enough water?” [____] asks, patting down her pockets. Blast, she’d finished off the last of her hydro pack. “Shiiiit.” the medic hissed, mentally rattling off symptoms. “Are you also feeling like it’s difficult to concentrate?”
Omega and Wrecker poked their heads into the ship before climbing in, a hydro pack, unopened, in her hands. “Hunter accidentally let himself get dehydrated didn’t he? I-I found this where he was sitting.”
“I’ve had at least one pack,” Hunter tried thinking back, feeling that wave of guilt washing over him when his siblings, his… could he call her that, yet? “Girlfriend”? (Would she prefer something else?) “I think I just got distracted and forgot to open the next one. I’m sor-”
“Some water is better than none, could be worse.” [____] conceded with a tender smile, allowing Omega to take a seat next to her in the middle of the “nap nest” when Crosshair suggested Hunter better lay down and he’d climb into a sleeping rack instead, popping in a pair of ear-jammers so he could sleep while sister and friend teamed up to take care of his brother. “Here, bandana comes off, and we’ll give you the second cold pack while you slowly nurse this…” The scarlet bandana was pawned to Omega, and once it was carefully laid aside in a neat fold, she watched with interest (and confusion) as her little brother’s eyes fluttered reflexively at the first pass of [____]’s hand through his hair once his head was propped up with one of the pillows from the nap nest in the back of the ship, but not her’s. That was strange. How’d she do that? What did Omega do differently than the medic?
“Here, try it like this.” the grown woman offered kindly, noticing the girl’s cute pout of confusion. She tried encouraging Omega to give it another shot when it didn’t work as expected. “You’ll get it, sweetie. Just try again. He’s not going anywhere until I feel he’s properly hydrated again.” [____] laughed lightly at Hunter’s mumbled apology for making her play medic when she was supposed to have the day off, again, just to take care of him when he wasn’t being proactive about his safety and health.
Before bending forward to kiss Hunter, [____] playfully rolled her eyes in his line of vision before closing the distance. “Oh, hush, handsome. Like I told Captain Rex, you guys just keep my job interesting for me. And I don’t mind a bit.”

Note from Frost: The "shu'ah" trees Tech described for you are space!Joshua trees (I just tried to creatively modify the name and description a bit). The mining town is heavily inspired by Jerome, Arizona, which is what inspired the beginning and opening location of this fic even though it wasn't described in detail until now. Threw in a vague reference to Sliding Jail for funsies. As a born-and-raised desert dweller, this chapter felt like writing about home for me as much as it's about your more domestic/everyday-flavored moments with Hunter and his siblings. Start thinking now if you wanna be added to the all-encompassing SW fic taglist (sans OC stories, most likely) while I get the last chapter all nice and purdy!  🩷

He Who Stepped Up chap 4 (AO3 link)
Summary: A reunion and a loss for all
Notes: Guess who's back with a fourth chapter!
It's me woohoo 🎉
I've been watching all these tiktoks and reels about Epic the musical and Apollo and Hyacinthus and got me in the mood for this story again and here we are ~~~
Hope you enjoy it 😘✌️
Hyacinthus didn't know how much longer he could hold on. (How long had it been? Days? Hours? It can't have been years.)
He felt the gaze of the monsters pass, skipping over him and Michael without a thought. Even so he still made sure to focus more energy into hiding them, you could never be more safe.
Apollo should be on his way now, Hyacinthus hopped. Daphne should have told him by now and he was coming to save his son (he would understand if she hadn't, her story was one of warning, of what it meant to be loved by a God. Not that it stopped him.)
He felt the strongest and most present he had ever felt in his three thousand years of flowery existence. Hyacinthus knew that if Apollo found them now, he would be able to see both his son and a physical impression of Hyacinthus atop his flowers with his arms wrapped around Michael.
He also felt the weakest. The amount of energy he pulled to be this far down (by Gods were they so far and deep, oh so close to The Prison), petition Daphne and protect Michael for this long, he isn't sure he'd be able to recover. But it was worth it.
By Gods it was worth it.
This child deserved to live, to walk freely under his father's light. And Hyacinthus would to what he could to make that happen.
Time passed and the monsters made their rounds again and again, hunting for Michael.
Hyacinthus began to feel his energy dropping. He could not hold for much longer and he knew he'd have to wake Michael from his healing trance soon, but just a little longer he begged to whatever Gods that could hear him (he pleaded to them, to Apollo, to his mother) just let him have a little longer.
(He wasn't heard).
When Hyacinthus knew with certainty that he only had one day left before he'd be exhausted completely, he began to wake Michael up. Slowly releasing his hold on Michael, the left over energy retreated back to him, allowing him another hour, two at most before he'd leave Michael to hell once more. (Before he'd leave everyone, forever.)
Michael groaned on the ground and slowly sat up, rubbing his eyes. He turned to Hyacinthus who noticed for the first time that Michael had Apollo's mortal brilliant blue eyes. "Thank you, Hyacinthus," he rasped, voice so disused, "how long have you given me?"
"You've slept for days" Hyacinthus replied, "how many I could not tell you, but now I can only give you one more."
Michael nodded, "thank you Hyacinthus, that's more than I than I hopped for." He then looked over the flowers surrounding him and Hyacinthus' ghostly form, and bent his head to his drawn up knees. "Is this going to kill you?" He asked.
"You needn't worry about that."
A furious face turned to him. "I think I get to know if my dad's dead boyfriend is dying once a-fucking-gain, this time for me."
Hyacinthus pursed his lips (how odd to do that again), "yes," he replied, "there is a very good chance I will die from this."
"Then why the fuck are you still here!" Michael then knelt and leaned on his hands in front of him, blue eyes blazing, "Use your remaining energy and leave! Don't kill yourself for me."
"Michael," Hyacinthus reached a hand out to the dark hair short hair in front him, surprised when it actually met soft strands, "this is my choice, let me give you one more day."
Michael's eyes teared up and he leaned back, Hyacinthus let his now empty hand fall down. Michael then aggressively wiped his eyes and lowered his hands to his mouth and screamed into them. "It's not fucking fair," he whispered after screaming, "it's just not fucking fair."
"No," Hyacinthus said, "it's not. But, tell me, what do you hope to see again, what do you hope to do when you finally get out of here?"
"What the fuck?" Michael said, looking at Hyacinthus the exact same confused expression Apollo made.
Hyacinthus shrugged, "it's my last day, your father may or may not be on his way so I may or may not get to see him once more before I truely fade away. I want to know of good things."
Michael's eyebrows drew together, "dad might be coming?"
Hyacinthus hummed, "I begged Daphne to help him find us, but gods knows if she actually has. I hope she did."
"My good chance of survival lies in the hope the nymph my dad harassed to her death tells him where we are?"
"Yes."
Michael layed down on the flowers with his hands on his face, "well shit."
"I would like it known that I was panicked, I wanted to save you."
Michael took a deep breath, "thank you then, Hyacinthus."
Hyacinthus smiled, "you're welcome Michael. Now, please tell me of good things."
"Alright," said Michael, and he spoke of what he wanted to do when he finally escaped, how he wished to see his mother, his siblings. To learn to drive, to go to college and to travel.
He spoke of all the good things Hyacinthus wanted to hear and so enthralled was Hyacinthus in listening that he didn't even notice a presence getting closer and closer.
A presence he had known so intimately that he would feel it instantly as a flower. A presence that brought warmth, safety and love. So, so much love.
"Michael?" A beautiful, musical voice that brought back so many memories spoke, "you're alive?"
Hyacinthus and Michael's head turned fast at the voice and Hyacinthus gazed for the first time in over three thousands of years on the perfect, wonderful form of his lover.
Apollo stood in front of them with glowing golden hair perfectly draped around his face, smooth unblemished tanned skin pulled tight around muscular arms Hyacinthus knew could hold him up without needing support in their most intimate moments. Arms that were holding a potted plant?
"Dad," Michael whispered next to him, shocking Hyacinthus out of thoughts that he shouldn't be having near his lover's son, "dad!"
Michael got up and ran over to his father who quickly placed the potted plant on the ground. Michael's hands bunched in Apollo's shirt (thank you Michael for explaining new clothing to him) and he began to sob.
"I called for you!" He cried, "I prayed to you, I screamed to you! But you didn't fucking come, you left me!" He banged his fists on Apollo's chest, "you fucking left me."
Apollo looked heartbroken at his son's words and wrapped his arms tight around him even as Michael beat him. "I'm so sorry Michael," he said sounding close to tears as he leaned his head down to rest it on his son's head, "I didn't hear you, I swear on the River Styx I didn't hear you. "
Hyacinthus watched with warmth in his non existent heart as father and son cried in each others arms. Looking down at the potted plant, he realised it was a Laurel sprig.
Thank you, Daphne, he thought, for leading him here. He felt a soft tingle in his mind, no child deserves such a death, Daphne replied, no matter their parentage. And neither do you Hyacinthus, I'm glad we found you in time, and with her parting words he watched as the sprig decayed and crumpled away, it's use no longer needed.
Just as the last of the sprig disappeared, Hyacinthus was alerted to the movement of the group of monsters that had been hunted Michael, they were coming back again.
"Apollo," he called out, his lover's attention instantly on him with brilliant blue eyes spiked with gold full of renewed heartbreak (he remembered the last time Apollo looked at him like that, a memory tinted red as blood flowed down into his eyes), "the monsters hunting Michael are returning, I have just enough energy to hide Michael and I but I cannot hide you."
Apollo's heartbroken face instantly turned to fury and his hold on his son tighten further making Michael utter a small "ow".
"They dare," Apollo spoke and the walls of the labyrinth began to shake in his anger, "they dare hunt for my son as if he were common prey? As if he were nothing?"
In the face of Apollo's anger, Hyacinthus remembered the stories of the dangers of Apollo's wrathful nature, "Apollo," he called in warning, "you still hold your son, you will regret it if you brought him harm so soon after finding him."
His words seemed to get through to the angered God as he lightened his hold on his son, who gave a breath of relief.
"I will kill them," Apollo said, "I will destroy their essence utterly so they will never reform within The Prison."
And, as soon as the group of monsters came into the hallway once more, Apollo did just that. With a bright flash of light that Hyacinthus did not need to cover his eyes for (nothing of him was real, he was only an impression after all), the monsters were gone with a screech.
"Michael, we are going to the surface," Apollo said resolutely.
"The fuck you mean we're going to the surface now, dad?" Michael asked in confusion and stepped back from Apollo to wave a hand in Hyacinthus' direction, "your boyfriend is dying again for saving me and we're just leaving him here?"
"You are not staying down here another minute, Michael," Apollo said severely, "and I am a God, I can be in multiple places at once."
Apollo then seperated himself into two and before Michael could say a thing, he was transported by one of the Apollo's in a bright flash with said Apollo disappearing with him.
Once the light faded the remaining Apollo called out to him. "Hyacinthus," he said, his beautiful face once again full of heartbreak, "you saved him."
"Of course I did 'pollo," he replied with a gentle smile, "he's yours."
Apollo walked to him and knelt amidst his flowers. "How I've hoped to see you again," he told him, "how I've begged for one more moment, just one more chance. But not like this," a tear fell from his now golden eyes and he made no move to brush it away, "not when seeing you could mean truely loosing you forever."
Hyacinthus continued to smile gently at him and brought a hand up to wipe away his lover's tears. His hand met Apollo's face and though he expected the contact, he still froze. It had been more than three thousand years since they had touched after all.
Apollo gasped at the light touch and brought up his own hand to hold on to Hyacinthus' that cupped his face and cried more.
"I would have chosen mortality for you," Apollo said brokenly, "I would have taken all the pains it would have brought and welcomed them without regret."
"I know," Hyacinthus said as his own tears started to fall, "what a life we could have shared."
The two gazed into each others eyes as they cried, thinking of what could be's. Then, Hyacinthus flickered and curled into himself with a groan, he was running out of energy quicker than he lead Michael to believe.
"No!" Apollo shouted with terror, "not now!"
"I saved him," Hyacinthus said as he scrunched his eyes and concentrated on staying manifested, "I hid him for as long as I could."
"Hyac-"
"I even put him in a healing trance," he continued, speaking over his lover, "so he's not as hurt as he could have been."
"And I thank you for it," Apollo whispered and his voice broke on the last word.
Hyacinthus opened his eyes and looked at the teary eyed face of his lover, "if only we had more time."
"Energy!" Apollo declared with desperation, "I can give you energy, I've done it before to give you a slight boost for protecting my children, surely I can give you some to ensure you won't fade away."
"Apollo, what would it even boost? There's already so little of me left." Hyacinthus said tiredly.
"That little bit should be enough," Apollo said with renewed confidence, "it will help you recover, but you may not have the same awareness as you did before for a while."
"If that's what you believe."
"I do."
Hyacinthus grabbed Apollo's face with one last bit of strength and pulled him closer, "then do it," he said and kissed him with as much passion as he could.
Apollo responded instantly, grabbing him on the waist and dug his fingers in just like he used to.
Hyacinthus then felt a heat building up in his chest that grew and grew and grew. Breaking the kiss, he leaned back with his face to the ceiling and light shone out from his mouth and eyes. His form disappeared.
Apollo's hands dropped to the ground they no longer had anything in their grasp. The hyacinth flowers around him began to crumble and fade away.
He cried.
"Work, please work," he whispered as his tears fell on top of the remaining crumbling, fading flowers, "please."
Outside of the Labyrinth, every single wilted Hyacinth flower in the world began to perk up much to everyone's shock and surprise.
Hyacinthus slept on unaware.
Apollo, now outside, trailed a hand through a patch of renewed hyacinths and felt a sharp pain in his heart when no presence reached back out to him. He let himself join back with his self who had Michael, at least one good thing had come from this.

I just saw your decade-old Ganondorf and Nabooru comic on my dash and am feeling pretty emotional about it too. I remember seeing it on my dash back when nobody liked OoT Ganondorf and thinking “thank GOODNESS someone is still feeding us starving OoT Gdork fans”. Thank you for being so in love with him and the OoT Gerudo all this time ;A; . I hate saying “some of us have loved him forever”, because that’s not the point at all. The point is that he really did have the tiniest fan club back then so every single work stuck out and remains so memorable and meaningful to me (and I’m sure to others), so I really wanted to give you this much-deserved shout out and thank you. You were posting quality OoT content since the dark ages — so thankful for you getting me through my early 20s in the LoZ and Ganondorf fandom, essentially. 😭
I don’t think people realize how important artists are especially for fans who couldn’t invest the time to produce fan content themselves. Unfortunately it means we don’t get to see exactly what we want to, which is totally fair and is the sacrifice one makes for having to focus attention elsewhere, but it just makes those artists who DO produce the content we’re dying to see that much more dear. I hope you never lose your passion for this fandom, because we really love your work and really appreciate your dedication to it 😭.
P.S. Thank you for drawing his long-ass OoT nose since the beginning too. Other designs are lovely too, but that’s really one of the defining traits of OoT Gdork to me lol. I love the way you draw him. It hits so right.
I don't even know how to respond to this, oh my god, this is SUCH a kind message. I didn't realize anyone was really left who followed my work back then, and it's so wild and endearing to hear that you did!
God it WAS a dry well back in the day, huh?? I feel like it was just like me, crazyfreak, and like two other artists posting what we could back then. It's so cool to see how popular Gan is now. ;v; They tried so hard to overwrite him in 2011 and he said "I lived, bitch ✌️ Nobody can do it like Me" (Remember how it was customary to put the latest 'Ganon' design in Super Smash but in 2017 despite Ganondorf not appearing in any game for over a decade they went back to OoT Gan instead of using Demise? The most validating moment of my life tbh.)
I've lost my steam many times, for many reasons, but Gan and this fandom have a permanent place in my heart, even when I don't have the time and focus to make stuff for it. This is so kind and you are so sweet and I really can't express how much it means to me to hear this and to know that my little fixation back then meant so much.
Thank you. <3
