yourusername: All my life, I've wanted to be a mother. It was my biggest dream. When I married Fernando 10 years ago, the first thing I wanted to do was look for a baby Nandito, but unfortunately, I had cancer. I needed to give up my dream of having a baby on my own to live. All these years, I was so sad because I'd never become a mother, but now I am. Meet Matías Fernando Alonso y/ln, the new addition to our family! He's 4 years old (soon to be 5) and loves cars and animals! We're so happy about this incredible opportunity. Our dreams came true with his arrival! We are deeply in love with him and looking forward to the future! ❣️

[sukinapan]

honestly would be pretty interested in hearing about all of them, if thats alright

it's no problem o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o i like talking about this

for context, apart from making personal art i'm also an artist and character designer at Smarto Club, so I don't know if these count as OCs but i have posted art of them here: Haco from >Bubblegum Galaxy and Teacup from >Teacup.

you can check the steam pages on those games for more info if u like. i love all my characters but i don't usually make personal art of these two since i already do it as my job.

my newest Smarto Club character is a bit different since she's more in the style of what i'm doing personally so i want to make more art of her soon. her name is Abigail:

she's a kid who likes reading about bugs and catching them but she never hurts them : ) this is a short game in early development but it's about catching creatures called angels. it's got horrorish vibes but i don't think the end result will be full-out horror, since it's also kinda silly...

then there's Peklo, it's a game for which i created the whole concept and story but the plan is to develop it as a studio at Smarto Club. i wrote more context for it on this post, but for the characters, they're my favorites to make art about at the moment. the main ones are Kiku (the cat) and Mi (the bunny):

i recently created these human forms of them for fun but i'm not sure whether i'll establish them as canon or not... they're trapped in limbo/hell so there's space for them to have a past human form. they don't remember their lives but Kiku feels a deep sense of regret about things unkown to her and wants to break out of Peklo. Mi feels trapped in an eternal sadness, she longs to see the ocean, she can always hear it but has never been able to reach it.

the antagonist in Peklo is a frog entity called Guppy but i haven't really shown him outside of his froggy logo

i also have OCs from my smaller games. there's Hlina that i created specifically for >this game that was commissioned to me for a zine. i don't have any plans to use her again for now but i might make more art of her in the future for fun. she's part of a strange dream realm and is hostile to the player:

there's iro from the >game with the same name who's my oldest game OC. i created that bitsy game for her story but she existed previously in my art degree final project, it was a version of the same story but just a section of it. it's a dream of mine to create a full-fledged 3D game for her some day.

she's a bit of a defective space exploration robot, sent to explore planetoid Iridium-3 in search of human contact. it's set in a future where humanity has dispersed among the whole galaxy so lots of groups have lost contact with each other.

my latest game OC is Michtat, a wizard cat that i created just for this silly zine.

lasty, there’s the characters from my comic that I’m working on, called The most distant planet. the main characters are Victor and Mitya, two 9 year olds whose families end up living together.

i'd say these are the dearest characters to me of all. i don't post as much of them because they're mostly in the shape of comic pages and it doesn't spark as much interest as my games. i love drawing them though.

they’re both little weirdos who isolate themselves and don’t fit in much with other children, so the friendship they develop is very special to them. they have almost opposite personalities where Victor (darker hair) is very shy and dorky but also very sweet to everyone, while Mitya mostly gives 0 fucks about what anyone thinks or says, he blurts out whatever he’s thinking and just wants to run around wild.

the story is mostly slice of life-ish but there’s also a science fiction element ^-^ Victor is obsessed with things like ghosts, aliens, etc but Mitya thinks it’s all just dumb tales.

another important character is Alyosha, Mitya’s 17-18yo brother. he doesn’t know how to talk or relate to his little brother and is kinda weirded out by him. they where very close when they were younger, but when Mitya was 2 he had an accident that Alyosha feels guilty about, and has been somehow different ever since.

he still worries about his little brother and how isolated he is, though. at the beginning of the story the two of them live alone with their grandma who does love them but has kind of a cold and distant personality. 

Alyosha was the type of kid to be considered “gifted” but now feels completely burnt out and had to repeat a grade at school. he felt so humiliated by this he eventually stopped going entirely, so he now works part time and just studies at home. he cut contact with his old classmates but he still has 2 best friends from the last few months he spent at school in the grade below, Manon and Min Na. they’re the kind of friends who just show up unannounced at his house and job, and are very involved with his family’s life.

i’ve also included Min Jie in some art, she’s Min Na’s younger cousin and comes into the story later:

i should have like character sheets and stuff for all of these OCs but i’m the kind to just jump head first into drawing/modeling lol, that's why i included all these finished illustrations.

i really wanna publish this comic, i’ve been working on it for a long time and i’m currently waiting for the results of a public funding application here in my country to decide what i'll do next.

hope this could be of interest (^人^) thanks for the ask!

Catching up with #weird & wonderful

lo & princess + sugar - hope their activities don't complicate things. she says it's closure, but does she mean it? sugar really called her on it. princess claims they're grown, but she's not acting like she's learned any lessons.

I've been wanting to ask how "tlalli" is pronounced. is it like the "tl" at the end of axolotl and quetzalcoatl which kind of sounds like there's a "u" between them or like the "tl" in the middle of tenochtitlán which sounds more like the "t" and "l" are fused together? I was thinking it was the latter pronunciation because it's also followed by a vowel sound, but I figured it be better to ask to be certain.

ortega - I thought this before but they seemed so bitter about something and it couldn't have just been that myra refused their help or called them out on their fraternizing. but come to find out! okaaaaaay? I can't see anything but things getting messy. also, that last shot, was that just a shot or was someone watching…? I guess we'll see…

tito & lydia - I still think they fell into it too quickly, but I have to respect tito for recognizing an opportunity to advance his position when it comes and I have to respect lydia for having the will to move on with life even when she still feels shackled. since her not having a whole lot of me-time between sauce and tito is still a concern for me, it makes me happy to see that tito is helping her focus on what she wants and giving her opportunities to voice those things. also, "yes, my love" and "yes, mi esposa/my wife" AHHHHH!

isamar - "he prefers to breed children. all over the worlds." she's so real for that! I was approaching a coughing fit!

carmen - I love the way he just laid it out. I don't think it called for any kind of delicacy, like, being plain-spoken about it is part of the positive outlook.

es & lupe - Yay! love their reunion. I feel like you can tell lupe comes from a family that's open about what's going on with them, but that it was something they had to work on across generations and now that deliberate effort is bearing fruit across those generations as well. es and lupe's communication is very straightforward, but not in a been their done that kind of way. it's more like they don't want to waste time hemming and hawing knowing fully well how quickly things in life can change.

judith + arlo - really delivering on that long-time friend vibe

it was such a treat to get caught up. there are so many threads in the story, but your pacing is such that I can see the fabric being woven carefully and I don't think there's a stray thread to be found. it's always disappointing when I come across a story with a good premise and engaging cast, but it's hard to follow or make the connections. pleased to be able to say I don't have that issue here.

You're on a roll today, friend! Let's get into it!

lo & princess + sugar - Princess likes to act like she doesn't have feelings; that's why she asked Sugar to hold her accountable. Problem is, Lo likes to play that game too, which is precisely why they shouldn't be together. I think Princess is in over her head.

Tlalli: You second guess was right - the "tl" sounds more like the "t" and "l" are fused together? (So glad you asked - I'd considered writing in phonetically, but I wasn't sure 😊)

As for Det. Ortega? You'll be learning a bit more about her and Myra soon, but I will say this - the detective needs to slow her roll. She knows all about Fernanda and has known for a long time. But she's confusing sex that came out of loneliness and Myra's misguided attempt to keep someone she thought was innocent safe.

Tito & Lydia - I remember you thinking they fell into things too quickly, but I'm still conflicted. They loved each other for years, so I suppose to them it's more of a continuation than jumping into a relationship too fast. For them, they're just coming home. 😭😭But I do agree - it's always best to take time to yourself to heal before you start something else. I think they both feel like they've already lost so much time...

Also, "yes, my love" and "yes, mi esposa/my wife" AHHHHH! 🖤💖🖤

Isamar - "he prefers to breed children. all over the worlds." she's so real for that! I was approaching a coughing fit! 😂(I feel her pain)

Carmen - Carmen will always keep it real, that's for sure lmao

Es & Lupe - Interestingly enough, Lupe learned the most about communication from her tia Conne; as her mother Fernanda is incredibly closed off.

Happily, Es and Lupe's are intensely open with each other - I think it's part of their love language; feeling that sharing their thoughts and feelings bring them closer together.

This part: " it's more like they don't want to waste time hemming and hawing knowing fully well how quickly things in life can change." Very well put!

Judith + Arlo - I'm sooo glad they have each other 🖤

Again, thank you so much for taking the time to read my stories - as a writer, it's hard to know how your stuff will be received. I like to fan out and explore how events affect all my characters - and how I don't lose anyone in the process. So it makes me to happy to see someone enjoying the journey! 🖤🤘🏾

When you get a commission back of your OCs and now you can properly picture them & how they'd look in their verse.

Screaming crying throwing up PUNCH ME IN THE FACE

The artist doesn't have a Tumblr as far as I know, but their Twitter can be found right here. [ thank u Myka ur a blessing ]

More about these girls under the cut.

The one on the left is Suma, the youngest Fujihara child. She's 21 before the timeskip; was formerly a member of the Sapphire Serpents [ her older sister, Kiyomi's, crew + the skeletal remains of their parent's crew ] before she left one year before the story starts. She spent that year bartering her way across the East Blue on merchant ships by offering her services as a Sharpshooter.

Suma ends up joining the Strawhats after she tries to pickpocket Sanji in Alabasta before everything went Wrong. She tags along ( not of her own will, thanks Zoro for grabbing and running ), before she does join them officially. She maybe has a lil flirty thing going on with Ace.

She and Zoro also have late night conversations while taking the night shift; she navigates while he keeps watch. He knows the most about her ( majorly fucked up ) childhood & teen years.

Mizuki [ on the right ] is Suma's older sister, the fourth child in the Fujihara family. She is the literal problem child of the family. She was kidnapped when she was six by members who mutinied against her parents and was kept for almost three weeks in a shack on a small island before she was rescued. Her love for her family died when she was thirteen & had her tongue forcibly split ( all 5 children had the procedure done; only Kiyomi & Kiyoko [ oldest children ] agreed to it. ) She essentially broke when, at 18, her parents branded them all with a 'P' so they could never become Marines ( that failed with child #3, Junpei ).

Mizuki snapped; she killed their parents while they slept, jumped ship a month later, and for the past decade has been making it on her under the alias of the Deadman's Daughter. She ate the Hebi Hebi no Mi Model: Viper fruit, giving her a ridiculously quick strike as well as some funky effects.

She joined Buggy's crew shortly before the Orange Town event as a contortionist and spy. It's handy to have someone around who can fit into small places for a long amount of time. She wears this green themed clown paint that is heavily modeled after the 1920s makeup trends.

May or may not have the hots for her captain.

[enobariasdistrict2]

Just curious but do u have a least fave care ship? (Aside from d*roline because that’s the obvious choice)

yeah lol when i saw this in my inbox i was JUST about to start screaming daroline XD but there are some other contenders like

after watching TO and klaus's superior anti hero/villain protagonist characterization and development I was obviously super excited for klaroline especially because of a.... overzealous fandom lol and klayley and klamille were such great successes despite their tragic ends since those dynamics worked SO well, where klaus was actually being held accountable and learning and growing and changing. even those had their problematic elements but klaus ships were the only enemies to lovers villain x protagonist pairing i'd ever actually liked (and the reason i began to like darklina) since IMO klaus was never mis characterized as a tragic good person without genuine change like the salvabros were, but then tvd kinda dropped the ball on what made TO klaus s1 such a great antagonist character that made it so easy to like him and the general woobie narrative abuse got old pretty quick after s4. s3 was in imo just the right amount of fucked up for klaus to be and then s4 went like wayyyy too far. so in a way even though obviously I'm quite a fan of fanon klaroline canon kc isn't a good friend of mine especially because their development came in super random bursts especially at the expense of an already established relationship and a character that had benefitted from that relationship (forwoood + tyler). klaroline is mostly just sad lost potential to me nowadays since klaus's relationship dynamics were always so fascinating to me and he and care have always been somewhat fascinating together.

there's also maroline even though Matt had his genuinely sweet moments. what makes the toxicity of this relationship much better than that of daroline and lbr even kc is that it's just them both being immature, not bringing out a good side in each other, miscommunication, insecurities, and jealousy.... So like more regular teen relationship issues that are natural and kinda a part of growing up as we learn from the mistakes we make as children as opposed to non-con or threats or coercion like d*roline was built on. and clearly CARING about caroline wasn't the problem here since matt was basically an endearing and sweet puppy before the writers just fucked up his arc and life completely, and he genuinely wanted her happiness... but it vexed me so much how he insulted her and belittled her insecurities and even talked about his ex IN FRONT OF HER. he openly preferred elena to caroline which would hurt anyone especially since caroline is super competition driven and the societal misogyny of the 2009 environment was a major part of her thinking process (which is clear in how she was always comparing herself viciously to other female characters). and yet she wasn't entirely innocent either, because her jealousy over amy who he expressed NO romantic interest in (which is different from care being annoyed by him and his feelings toward an ex) was pretty irrational tbh and perpetuating distrust on her part. everyone probably has to has a relationship like maroline at some point as a learning experience for what kind of partner is imperfect and inaccessible to them imo, so it makes sense from the perspective of her general arc, but it got to the point where I was not a fan lol.

anyways forgive me for that long ramble I'm on mobile and can't use a read more oops.

Scorpio (To, Na, Ni, Nu, Ne, No, Ya, Yi, Yu)

Today, participating in sports and outdoor activities will help you regain lost energy.

Your spouse’s negligence may increase the distance between you two, so spend quality time together to revive sweet memories. Romantic plans might be sidetracked by your partner’s health issues. Your focus on work may be diminished due to a family issue, and business owners should keep an eye on their partners, as they may cause financial losses.

Creative work will bring you peace today. You may find yourself spending money on several things, so it’s essential to create a good budget plan. A distant relative may contact you today.

Aquarius (Gu, Ge, Go, Sa, Si, Su, Se, So, Da)

Today, focus on physical well-being, especially gaining mental strength through meditation and yoga. Before leaving the house, seek blessings from elders, as this may lead to financial gains. It’s a good time to take your parents into confidence regarding your new projects. Your partner’s love for you is deep and real, and today will reaffirm that. It’s a great day for outstanding performance and important tasks.

Pisces (Di, Du, Tha, Jha, Jna, De, Do, Cha, Chi)

Outdoor activities and sports should be part of today’s entertainment. Some people may have to spend money on real estate-related matters. Most of your time will be spent with friends and family. If you want to make your lover your life partner, today might be a good time to have that conversation. However, make sure you understand their feelings first. A day filled with stress may lead to disagreements with close ones. Indulging in good food, fragrance, and joy will make the day special with your spouse.

Head canons of Bruno with a S/O who suffers from chronic illness.

{A/N: ✨⌛️Here I am, suffering at work yet again dreaming about Bruno being here at my side once more. I adore this man so much and I think about the non stop comfort and compassion he’d show his significant other. Of course I’m self projecting my misery into my work again, but what else is new here el oh el ✨⌛️}

{Word count: unknown I never keep track on head canons lol}

{Warnings 🚨: talk of chronic illness}

I want to start this off by saying, he knows his sister cannot fix chronic problems like the ones you suffer from, and he feels incredibly guilty about it.

It’s not like it’s something he can control, just like your sickness isn’t something you can control, but the idea of living with a healer who can’t help eats away at him.

He’d still ask Julieta to cook you something to alleviate your symptoms and pains. While her food can’t permanently rid your body of it’s suffering, her meals are like a little bandaid for the problem.

He’d be patient and tender towards your emotions when you feel so uncomfortable and irritable. Anything you need he’s so attentive and eager to help with.

Every time you’d whimper and groan, complaining reflexively, he’d just push your hair back from your face and kiss your forehead.

Bruno: “I know mi vida, I know. Try and get some rest, okay? We don’t have to leave the bed today if you’re feeling so miserable, we can just lay here all day. Oh! I could put on a performance for the latest chapter of Todos Mis Hijos Rata! It’ll be great, just what you need to feel better! See Erika just found out that her prima Vanessa has been sleeping with the father of her children, Juanito! Just stay right there get comfy, I’ll go get the rats!”

Every little bit of effort the man goes through to make you feel better, sends your heart flying. Plus his telenovelas are a great way to distract your brain from the pain.

I cannot stress this enough, but he is SO good at validating your feelings and pain. Even if it’s not something physical he can see, he always makes sure it’s clear that he knows you’re suffering.

You don’t have to overthink things around him. If you say that you feel sick, he’ll accept that answer and immediately work towards aiding your discomfort. He never once questions how you feel. It’s a relief not to have to over explain that you feel sick because you have a silent illness that doesn’t show.

On your bad days where you suffer from intense flair ups, he doesn’t leave your side. He’d do anything and everything humanly possible to make you feel better. He makes sure you stay hydrated and brings you food from Julieta every few hours. Even if you feel like you can’t eat he makes sure your body is holding the nutrients it needs.

Bruno: “here mi vida, Julieta made this for you. Try a bite, it may make you feel better….I know you feel sick to your stomach but hey, a little food may make you feel better. It’s just a bland arepa no queso. The dough should uh um…should absorb some of the extra acid in your stomach and uh make you feel a little better…that’s what my sister said at least, and I-I trust her. Eat up my vida.”

You can’t help the way your lips fight their way into a smile. While you most likely won’t eat a thing, you appreciate the efforts. For his sake you’d at least nibble the arepa throughout the day.

If you're suffering through a flair up and you've got important plans you cant cancel, he'll make sure to stay close in case you need him.

He's constantly covering for you to help ease any embarrassment you may feel about disappearing for long periods of time to alleviate yourself.

If somebody notices your gone, without hesitation he’d come up with an excuse, even if he is a terrible liar.

Antonio: “where’s Tia? We were just gonna start playing fetch with Pearce.”

Bruno: “O-oh, Tia had to u-uh take care of something really quick. How about I step in for a bit until she comes back? Sound good, kiddo?”

You feel so safe venting and sharing your problems with the man. He’s an amazing listener. He never interrupts and will let you ramble on for as long as you need.

He always says the sappiest cutest things at the end. Guaranteed to make you smile like an idiot.

Y/N *tearing up a bit*: “I feel bad whenever I have to bail out on your family, mi amor. What if they hate me for it? I just- I feel guilty. I wish I didn’t have to disappear all the time and I wish I could be there more. God it’s so embarrassing when I just have to get up and leave in the middle of a conversation because I’m in agony.”

Bruno: “Don’t feel guilty mi vida. I know you can’t control these things, it’s okay. Nobody’s perfect ya know? A-And at least you only disappear for like 10 minutes tops, I disappeared for 10 years and they still welcomed me back like nothing ever happened aha….I’m just saying mi vida, my familia is pretty understanding and if they aren’t? Well, I’ve learned that getting my family’s approval is something I can live without. If they don’t like you for something you can’t control, forget them. I-I don’t care what they have to say about you, and neither should you Y/N. Illness or not I think you’re perfect.”

Why is he just the perfect man!!

You could literally climb into his lap and cover his face FULL of kisses.

You do. Without hesitation. Flustering the man silly.

You’re absolutely blessed to have a partner so understanding and loving.

[esperosisdoeswriting]

Part four of prompt 156?? It was soo good

I sure can! also @aithlynfreyeaesthetic and @itsleighlove  mentioned wanting more in the notes of the previous one, I hope you guys don’t mind the @, just thought I’d @ u guys cause u expressed intrest.

Coming to a (mis)Understanding Part #4  Original  Previous  Next

[Villain] and [Hero] stared at each other as they stood across the rooftop, neither intending on being the one to blink first. They both felt the tension, the unasked questions, the righteous indignation hanging in the air, but they stood silently, refusing to be the one to initiate.

"Oh, alright, fine!" [Villain] yelled in frustration after their brief ten-minute stare down, "I guess I'll speak first! [Hero] What the hell is wrong with you!"

"Wrong with me?!" [Hero] shouted back indignantly, "What the hell is wrong with you?!"

"Besides the usual or have I done something in particular lately to annoy you," [Villain] snarled.

"Just in general," [Hero] seemed to deflate slightly from their indignance, "Still what right do you have to question me?!"

"I have all the right in the world to question you when you tell the other parents we're dating!" [Villain] shouted back, spurning [Hero] back into their indignation.

"I did no such thing! They just made it up and rolled with it!" [Hero] shouted back, "I tried to tell them it wasn't true, but they refused to believe me talking about..." [Hero] gagged exaggeratedly, "...marriage."

[Villain] shuddered at the thought of the two getting married but quickly snapped back, "You expect me to believe that?"

"Why would I tell them we're dating?!" [Hero] practically screamed at them, "What benefit do I get out of that?"

"Embarssaing me!"

"Unlike you, I will not drag myself through the mud to ensure you're dragged down with me!"

[Villain] scowled at them, "Even if you didn't tell them, we still need to talk about you avoiding me. What happened to being civil?"

"That was before they implied we were doing... things..." [Hero] shouted, their face visibly red from even across the rooftop. [Villain] put their head in their hands before calling back out to [Hero],

"Look. I think we need to change our approach."

"Ya think?!"

"Listen!" [Villain] shouted at [Hero], who immediately shut up. "We need to learn to tolerate each other a bit better if this is ever going to work for our kids," they explained. "If you fly off the handle and avoid me for weeks on end because someone implied we'd look cute together, how will that affect the children?" [Villain] tried to reason.

"I don't want to be anywhere near you more than I have to." [Hero] glowered.

"Me neither, but it's for the kids, ok?" [Villain] pleaded. [Hero] looked sourly at the floor for a few moments before nodding bitterly.

"Good," [Villain] sighed, "Now. I heard of this hero/villain therapist that might be able to-"

"Aren't those for working out problems between couples?" [Hero] cuts them off, mortified.

"They're for working out interpersonal issues, which we have! It doesn't have to be couples stuff, just... working out how to deal with each other and other people's comments."

"For the kids."

"Yes, for the kids." [Villain] sighed.

"Fine... Tell me more."

Fic: So Close Yet So Far Away

Fandom: Triple Frontier

Ship: Frankie Morales x Jay 'Lady' Ray

Warnings: Language, talk of sex, throwback to sex, Pope is a crude asshole. Yearnnniinnngggg.

Summary: Lady and Pope get into an argument and Frankie sorts her out. Cue some elite level yearning.

A/N: HAHAHA I wasn't even meant to write this today but I woke up with this on my mind and I just had to because they're my BABIES. This is an instalment in the Frankie x Lady series and takes place back when Lady was in Frankie's squad, before they were an item.

Jay should have known better than to ask about everyone’s weekend. She just wanted to make small talk while they got prepped for a field exercise. She wasn’t ready to hear about their night out on Saturday, how Santi, Frankie, and Benny all scored some willing chicks, Will only missing out because he had a girlfriend, not because he didn’t pull.

All the while Jay was stuck with her family, listening to her mother go on about how she was too good for the army, she should leave while she was still alive, get a normal job, marry, have kids… She could have been out with the guys, maybe get lucky herself and if not, at least have a fun night. Get drunk instead of sad.

And now she finds herself listening to Santi talk about his one night stand, not giving Benny a chance to talk about his, while Frankie, quite characteristically, clammed up about personal stuff.

“Nutted her so fucking hard and all she did was beg for more,” Santi brags, “best fuck I had in ages…”

Jay’s been in the military since she was 18. She knows how soldiers talk, she’s heard it all, she’s participated in the crude joking, she’s not put off by it. But on this Monday morning, while the squad is assembling their equipment, she doesn’t want to hear it.

“Jesus fucking Christ, Pope, do you fucking have to talk like that?” she barks, unable to hear one more word about his sexual conquests. The rest of them cease their activities in wait for Pope’s reply. Working so closely together, sometimes spending weeks cramped up on assignments builds close bonds but also breeds discord. It’s normal to be at each other’s throats from time to time but it’s rarely Jay who flies off the handle.

“Oh, I’m so sorry, My Lady,” Santi replies with a smirk, his voice at its most velvety. “I meant I made passionate love to her all night – “

“You are so fucking disgusting, you know that?” Jay hisses. “Just shut the fuck up about the whole thing, nobody wants to hear about it.”

“Clearly not you,” Pope drawls, quick to anger. In the corner of her eye, Jay notices Will shake his head at him. Don’t engage, bro, just drop it. But Santiago Garcia is someone who doesn’t let things slide when he’s in gear.

“When was the last time you got laid, Ray? You need to get those pipes cleared out. Get some d.”

When was the last time? Too long ago. She does have an itch but last time she scratched it, it just didn’t feel right. She had the same feeling of detachment as she experienced just now when she heard about last Saturday night, particularly the fact that Frankie got laid.

It’s not that she’s jealous. She’s just more comfortable with the idea that Frankie doesn’t sleep around with anyone.

“A dick isn’t going to solve my problems, Santi, unless it’s a big one up your sorry ass,” she snaps, a rude laugh from Benny telling her she scored a point. Staring hard at Pope, whose ridiculously handsome features show an obnoxious amount of amusement, she knows that he won’t budge until he’s drawn metaphorical blood.

“Just name the time and the place, Ray, I’ll be there. Will you?”

“Okay, knock it off.” It’s Frankie, of course. The voice of reason. “Redfly’s gonna be here any minute and I don’t want to do extra laps just because you two can’t play nice.”

Frankie always has that calming effect on her, even now when she’s inexplicably mad at him for having fooled around with some random girl he picked up at their usual dive. Is there a possibility of her being there again in the future? Jay doesn’t want to think about it. Right now, she focuses on the sense that Frankie’s words make. It’s not worth it. Santi’s not worth it.

“Just stay away from me, asshole,” she warns Santi before going back to her kit. The tension in the room eases and Benny, who’s closest to Jay, gives her a brief pat on the back and a nod that says Good call. She hears Frankie murmur something to Santi behind her back, then Santi’s mutter: “She on the rag or something?”

That does it. Jay throws down her backpack and spins around.

“You say that to my face, you piece of shit,” she growls, taking a step forward. Her body is quivering with pent up rage in need of an outlet and knocking Pope on his ass would serve as an adequate one.

“Jay, he’s not worth it,” Benny tries to placate her but she barely hears him. Her whole focus is directed at Pope and his shit-eating grin. He says one more thing…

“Got your panties in a twist?”

She lunges forward but doesn’t make it to Pope as several hands grab her and hold her back.

“Hey, hey, hey!”

“Calm the fuck down, Ray!”

“Crazy bitch – “

“You’re on really thin ice, too, Pope! Shut that motherfucking mouth of yours!”

Benny is physically restraining her as she practically vibrates with desire to beat the crap out of Santi, who’s held back by Frankie.

“Ray, he’s not worth it,” Benny tells her. “Take a walk. Smoke. Calm down. He’s an asshole.”

He’s right and Jay knows it. Mustering up all of her willpower, Jay rolls back onto her heels, straightens her back, and squares her shoulders. Without looking at anyone, she turns around and stomps out.

Frankie finds her by the vehicles, in the backseat of a Humvee. Her fore and middle fingers are rubbing against her thumb: she’s quit smoking but is clearly wishing she had a cigarette right now. Frankie climbs into the backseat from the other side and pulls up a pack from his pocket, offering it to her without words. Jay hesitates but eventually takes one and leans closer to him when he flicks open his lighter. Frankie can smell the anger on her, a sweaty tightness that radiates from her muscles. She sits back, inhaling deeply before exhaling in a frustrated puff of smoke.

“Fuck,” she mutters, “I don’t wanna die because of these.”

“I thought you quit?”

“I did.” She throws him a glance and a grimace before flicking the cigarette out through the open door. “I thought you quit as well?”

“I keep them around for emergencies like this,” he shrugs. Jay looks pointedly at him.

“Then you haven’t truly quit, have you?”

He loves it how she puts him on the spot like this, provokes him, forces him to reconsider, change his way of thinking. She always does it with such ease, sometimes with a teasing glint in her eye. She just makes him want to be a better person.

“I guess not.” He throws her a small smile that goes unreciprocated. She stares into the back of the seat in front of her, lips tight. Frankie would love to just sit here in silence and let her lead, let her open up in due time, but he knows that if they don’t join the others soon, Tom is going to make a scene.

“Pope’s an asshole,” he states. Jay scoffs but says nothing. “But what’s up with you? You usually don’t let shit like that get to you.”

Her nostrils flare and he sees the muscles of her throat flex. Eventually, she parts her lips to speak, her voice strained.

“I spent the weekend with my dear mother, my brother, and his family. And you know what mom’s like.”

Frankie nods. Yes, he’s heard about Jay’s mother and the dislike the woman has for her daughter’s career choice. The older brother is married with one kid and another on the way and he, of course, is a saint, a pinnacle of human achievement, his children the very essence of what makes a successful life, his wife the perfect picture of Woman.

Jay suddenly twitches, then kicks at the seat in front of her.

“Fuck!I hate this fucking shit!”

Frankie refrains from putting a hand on her shoulder, no matter how much he would like to. He might end up with a broken nose.

“I cut her off,” Jay says tonelessly. “Completely.”

“About fucking time, Jay.” He’s been waiting for this to happen and he wants to tell her that he’s proud of her but it’s not his prerogative, no matter how much he would like it to be.

“Yeah,” she agrees, still not looking at him. “I kept hoping that she’d get her shit together but…” Her voice trails off and she swallows hard. “Fuck. I miss my dad.”

“He’d be proud of you,” Frankie assures her, biting off the endearment that threatened to escape him. Mi amor. Querida. He wants to be able to call her that, wants to be the one she’d come to with her sadness. Wants to be the one to call her mother and tell her to go suck an egg.

“You should’ve called,” he tells her but she only shakes her head. Stubborn as a mule.

“You were out. I didn’t want to ruin your night.”

It had been ruined the moment Santi laid eyes on the company of three young women by the bar. He had zoned in on the curvy brunette and Benny had picked the fiery redhead, leaving Frankie with the blonde. He didn’t want her, didn’t want any of the others, but he had fallen for the peer pressure and for every drink, he figured it could be a good idea to get laid. The girl was pretty, funny, nice. She had a hot body and was clearly willing. They had gone to her place and he had treated her like he would treat every woman he slept with: he ate her out, giving her several orgasms with his tongue before even thinking about putting his dick in her.

She had insisted on riding him. Frankie didn’t mind but as she bounced on his cock, her round, heavy tits jiggling in front of him, he didn’t see her face anymore. No, it was Jay all along, Jay’s long, lean body on top of him, Jay sinking down on him, her slick, hot pussy swallowing his cock while he swallowed her moan. The fantasy had become so real that he had to wrangle the woman off of him and take her from behind instead.

He left in silence once she was asleep, crept out like an asshole, a coward. He usually asked a woman if she wanted him to stay, he had once upon a time enjoyed having breakfast the next morning, sharing kisses when he finally left. But now, it all felt like cheating.

“You wouldn’t have ruined the night,” he tells her quietly. “It wasn’t that good.”

“The night or the sex?”

“The latter.” His ears are burning and he refuses to look at her.

“Too much to drink?” There it is: that sweet, amiable little taunt she saves for him only – or at least he hopes she does. He’s never heard her speak like that to any of the other guys.

“Wrong girl.”

Jay turns her head and looks at him. The distance between them in the backseat seems to shrink and grow at the same time when he returns her gaze. The hairs at the nape of his neck rise when he loses himself in the fathomless ocean-blue of her eyes.

He has to kiss her. He mustn’t kiss her.

“Are you two done with your fucking therapy session?”

Both of them startle when Tom shows up by the open door on Frankie’s side.

“I have an exercise op to run and I don’t have time to wait for you to feel quite ready, Ray,” he adds before slapping his hand to the roof of the Humvee. “Get your asses in gear.”

He leaves without having noticed anything. Frankie wonders how it’s even possible. Didn’t Tom feel the air crackle with electricity? Didn’t he hear how hard his heart was beating?

Jay gets out of the vehicle and slams the door shut, and Frankie follows suit. As they walk back, keeping a distance of two feet between them, Jay murmurs a Thank you, Morales to him.

“Sure,” he replies easily, forcing himself to sound neutral. “I got you, Ray.”

Fluffy A-Z Headcanons

pairing: marcus moreno x reader

summary: title gives it away :)

a/n: here’s my pedro masterlist 

Affection - What are those little things they do to show you that they love you?

Marcus’ love language is definitely acts of service. He thrives off of making your life easier/better in any way possible. It’s the little things like having your cup of coffee ready in the morning to making sure to buy your favorite snacks at the grocery store. You never feel unloved in your relationship.

Birthday - What do they do to celebrate your birthday? What is the thing you need to do to make them happy on their birthday? Are they good at giving gifts?

Him and Missy have a little tradition of breakfast in bed so that is still in place once you become apart of the family. You’re woken up to him placing a tray of your favorite food on your lap with Missy holding a happy birthday balloon and a small bouquet of flowers.

His ideal birthday would be spending the day with his two favorite girls. You three head to his favorite breakfast spot then back home to open gifts. The day is spent doing whatever he chooses as he is the birthday boy.

Marcus is surprisingly good at gift giving. He’s a very good listener, even more so getting closer to your birthday. He’s all ears when you talk about what things you’ve been wanting.

Cuddles - Do they like to cuddle? Big spoon or little spoon?

He tends to get cuddlier at night right before bed and when he’s extremely tired. That’s not to say he won’t cuddle on the couch during movie night, he just won’t initiate it like in bed.

He’s usually the big spoon, he loves having you wrapped in his arms. There are nights though where he just needs to be held and you’re more than happy to oblige.

Dating - What are they like on the first date? And those after that?

Marcus was nervous as hell on your first date. It was just a simple dinner date at a nicer restaurant downtown. Missy likes to joke that he changed his tie about four times before leaving the house that night. He stuttered and apologized the whole first half before you laid your hand on his and told him to relax.

After your second date was when he finally let his true personality come out. The witty and charming Marcus Moreno was all you got from then on.

Evolution - How fast does your relationship evolve? Weeks, months, years?

It was slower than most of your relationships and you knew a big part of that was because he had Missy. He didn’t want to rush into it and something go wrong. It was at the three month mark when you finally met her and you didn’t officially move in with them till almost two years into your relationship.

Flirting - Do they flirt a lot?

Yes and no. When you first got together he was a bit awkward with the flirting, not wanting to cross a line and come off too aggressive. You were the one to make the first move, but once he knew you were into him, he wouldn’t stop. Touching and kissing constantly, giving you compliments every chance he could.

Generosity - When they’re with you, is it about you or them?

About you, definitely. He couldn’t care less about himself if you’re in his sight.

Honey - Do they use pet names? What’s their favorite for you and for themselves?

Pet names come so natural to him, he didn’t even realize he began calling you something other than your name.

He’s particularly fond of calling you ‘mi cariño’ (my love). You stick to the simple ‘baby’ as he blushed madly when you first called him that. He still does btw.

Isolation - How do they react when they’re away from you?

Marcus doesn’t like to think of himself as a needy type of partner, but he is. He can usually keep himself busy with Heroic stuff and Missy when you’re away, but once that’s all done he just mopes. He’ll send you a few ‘i miss you’ texts and begins asking when you’re coming home. You went on a work trip for 4 days and you had Missy texting and begging for you to go home by the second afternoon.

Jealousy - Are they the jealous type? How do they react if you’re jealous?

At the beginning of your relationship, yes. You’d gone to meet his fellow Heroics and when Miracle Guy wouldn’t stop complimenting you, Marcus had to take more than a few deep breaths to calm himself.

He’s confused at first, why are you glaring at the waitress? It’s not till said waitress lays a hand on his shoulder when passing your table that he understands your mood change. He simply reaches over and grabs your hand in his and gives you a look that relaxes you. “How unprofessional of her right?”

Kisses - Lots of them? What about the first kiss?

Yes. He’s always kissing your cheek or forehead in passing, just a little reminder of his love. He always kisses your forehead when he gets up in the morning, you’re still deep in sleep as he sets the coffee pot and starts his day.

Your first kiss was after your second date. You had to make the first move as he was still too shy at that point. There wasn’t a doubt in your mind that he wanted to kiss you, you just knew he wouldn’t yet. You two stood outside your apartment, talking about how good the movie was. Marcus had said goodnight and turned around, but you were quick to grab his arm and turn him back to you. Once your lips met, he was hooked.

Light up - What do they do to make you feel better after a rough day? How can you lighten their mood?

Dinner is usually your job as Marcus can’t crack an egg without getting shells in the mix, but when he notices the way your shoulders slump and how tired your eyes look; he’s able to whip something together. He’ll run a bath for you too, pulling out your essential oils and bubble baths, everything he knows that’ll help you lighten up.

Marcus is always stressed, whether he shows it or not. If it’s not Heroic problems, it’s something of his own mind that has him troubled. You knew when it’s gotten too much for him when he can hardly focus, you’ll have called his name three times and he’s barely glanced your way. You’ll take some time to pull him away from whatever’s got him busy and just sit down and talk. Once you get him started, he won’t stop. Sometimes he just needs to vent and get everything out.

Mommy - How do they react to parenthood?

Well he has Missy and from what you can tell, he’s done an amazing job with her. He’s brought up having more children with you and you can’t wait.

Nurse - How do they take care of you when you’re sick? How do they behave when they’re sick?

He’s had a lot of practice taking care of the sick, with Missy and all so he’s pretty good. He’s very strict though, writing down what time your meds need to be taken and making sure you don’t miss any dosages. If you’re squirmy with medication he’ll make it his mission to make it as painless and quick as possible.

He’s so stubborn. Refusing to even admit that he’s sick. He’ll be coughing, sneezing and sniffling and even running a fever and he’ll swat away your helping hands. It takes you and Missy lovingly bullying him into resting for at least a day and taking medication.

Orange - What color reminds them of their other half?

The color yellow reminds him of you. Sunshine and sunflowers; everything bright reminds him of your smile and personality.

Brown is his color to you. You say it’s because of his deep brown eyes that hold so much sincerity and warmth. He always makes you feel safe and cared for.

Partners - Are they looking for flings, one night stands, partners to be with until their last breath? What makes them fall for you?

Neither of you were looking for anything serious when you started going out. Of course you wanted more and thankfully so did he. The way you care so deeply about everything and everyone and how you’re so patient and sweet with Missy is what made him fall head over heels.

Quarrels - How is it to have a fight with them? What do they do to make you forgive them? What do you do to make them forgive you?

Fights with Marcus are far and few between, there isn’t much that you two disagree on. If it does get to that point though, the arguments are never loud or with nasty words. They're hushed, usually in the kitchen late at night or in his office. He sighs a lot and you mumble under your breath.

Marcus straight up apologizes, he hates seeing the tears in your eyes and how you keep your distance from him. You’re not so good with words so your actions speak for you. If he’s working late, you’ll keep his cup full of hot coffee and make him his favorite snack. You’ll even come up behind him and rub his shoulders, leaving kisses on his neck and cheek. The night always ends with an ‘i love you’, no matter what.

Rainy day - What do they like to do on a rainy day?

Absolutely nothing. Marcus will try to work in his home office while you clean up the house and Missy locks herself away in her room, but the soft patter of the rain and the gloomy overcast makes him lose concentration.

He’ll pull you away from whatever you’re doing and make you sit outside on the porch swing with him, just watching the rain fall. He finds it very relaxing and therapeutic.

Secrets - Do they keep secrets from you and how do they react when they learn you’ve been keeping secrets from them?

No, not really. For being as shy as he was in the beginning, Marcus is kind of an open book. He talks a lot once he’s comfortable so he just spills everything to you. The man can’t keep secrets to save his life.

He’ll be hurt at first, wondering why you just didn’t tell him what you’d been keeping. He’d rack his brain, questioning if you really trust him or not. In the end, you explain why you kept the secret and he forgives you without question.

Tease - Do they like to tease you? How much humor is there in your relationship?

Absolutely. He teases you in every way he can, honestly. He is very much a kid at heart so he loves teasing you in the most innocent ways. Also, loves you teasing you in not so innocent ways.

U-turns - What can transform your relationship in a good or bad way? (What scares them off?)

Missy not liking you. That was the one thing that made or broke your relationship. She’s the most important thing in his life and you completely understood that.

Voicing - How hard is it for them to talk about their feelings? How do they tell you that they love you for the first time?

It’s a little hard. Marcus is open about a lot of things, his own emotions and feelings though, are a different story. It was obvious he was into you, there was no doubt about that. He just found it hard to move onto another woman after losing his wife. He didn’t think he was ever going to find that kind of love again and then he did with you. It’s right before he asks you to move in with him that he says the three little words.

You two are at your place for a movie night and just as you sit down next to him with a bowl of popcorn on your lap, he blurts it out. You’re a little in shock due to his poor timing, but immediately say it back once you see the panicked expression on his face.

Waking up - What's it like to wake up by their side?

Marcus is a difficult sleeper. Moving around constantly, stealing blankets, snoring, the works. It takes him a while to actually fall asleep cause his mind is always nonstop. He always wakes up before you though.

He’ll stare at you for a few, just admiring how peaceful you look before waking you up with soft kisses. You’ll feel yourself being pulled towards him and his lips on your forehead, cheek, then just next to your mouth. He is a tease after all. Waking up in your husbands arms is always amazing.

Xylophone - What's your song?

Say you won’t let go - James Arthur

“I knew i loved you then, but you’d never know cause i played it cool when i was scared of letting go. I know i needed you, but i never showed, i wanna stay with you till we’re grey and old.”

Yielding - What do you have to do to convince them to do what you want?

Just look at him. One look from you and he’s putty in your hands. It doesn’t take much honestly, Marcus can never say no to you.

Zoo - Could they have a pet with you? If so, what kind?

Yeah, probably. He never had time for a pet with being a Heroic and bustling Missy to school and extracurriculars, but now that he’s slowed down and has his little family in order it’s possible. A cat would suit your home, they’re low maintenance yet just the right type of needy.

If Cloud didn't fall in love with Aerith (in the past), then why do I think he sounds so guilty about going to her church in CoT & defensive when he first suggested that Aerith led Denzel to him? I'm glad he smiled though when Tifa says no, Aerith brought him to their family. Also, which date do u think is canon in Golden Saucer? At first, I thought it was Aerith's, but then "interrupted by fireworks" plays, which leads me to believe it's Tifa because only her confession was interrupted. Thanks!

Well, lets start by asking a better question. If Cloud and Tifa weren't dating, then why would Cloud have anything to be guilty or defensive about? Just because something isn't romantic, doesn't mean it's not a bad look. There are a lot of reasons for Cloud to be apprehensive about telling Tifa he's been "hiding in the church". Not the very least the actual problems he's going through. If you are going through bouts of depression because someone lost their life, then sneaking off without telling your partner to go wallow in the place that reminds you of them is not something that is likely to be well received. Most importantly, the bit of dialogue concerning Denzel gives us the context that we need to understand Clouds mindset at that moment.

"So the problem was resolved?" "What problem?" "Your problem." "Yeah..." Cloud thought about it. "It's OK if you don't want to tell me." "I can't really explain it well..." Cloud warned before starting to talk. "The problem isn't resolved. Well, I don't think it will be resolved for a long time to come. You can't retrieve lives that have been lost." Tifa nodded silently. "But maybe we can still save those lives that are endangered just now. Maybe even I can do it." "You mean Denzel?" "Yeah."

They're talking about "the problem", what problem? Well, obviously the problem that's causing Clouds detached, depressed state, the problem that's the core of advent children. So what's the problem? Well, like Cloud says, the problem can't really be resolved, since you can't bring back lives that have been lost (plural btw, although I have no idea if the same thing applies in Japanese). Now if you were to ask a Clerith, they'd tell you that this is all you need to know, the problem is that Aerith is dead. But that doesn't explain the function of the second half of the conversation. Cloud contrasts the bad thing that happened in the past, that cannot be undone, with saving Denzel in the future. Now if Clouds problem was that he couldn't be with the girl he loved, then that contrast makes no sense. "I can't be with the girl I love, but I can save this kid from dying". The second part of that sentence doesn't follow logically from the first when it comes to "how would that address the problem?".

However, if the problem is simply a matter of "not being able to save lives", then the sentence becomes "I might not be able to save lives that are already lost, but I might be able to save this life in the future". It now becomes obvious how doing so might address "the problem", because it serves as a way of atonement. This has of course been stated explicitly numerous times to be what the problem is, but it's important to note that in this specific scene we can directly see that at that moment in time, that's LITERALLY what is going through Clouds head. That's where his mind is at, not at "romantic feelings".

The "maybe EVEN I can do it" is even more telling. That "even" there tells us all we need to know about Clouds mindset. He's in a state of mind where he's a failure, he's not thinking "maybe I can do it", he's thinking "maybe EVEN I can do it.". Indicating that he sees himself as being particularly incapable of saving people, he's bringing himself down. That sentence was targeted towards himself as much as Tifa. This is not a man plotting to give up, or leave. This is a man looking for a way to address the problem, and nowhere in his half muttered speech about addressing the issue is there anything about missing Aerith, or needing to just be happy with his second choice, or anything specifically relationship related in anyway. Both the problem, and the solution to the problem, are isolated entirely to the realm of "the ability to save people". When Tifa then tells Cloud Aerith brought Denzel to them, he rightly smiles. I don't think that smile was a lie. We know that Tifa understands Cloud, it's been stated again and again. This is where the story ends, specifically to leave the reason for Clouds disappearance as a sort of cliffhanger. But from AC and other material, we know why Cloud left.

in the midst of this he contracts Geostigma himself, and rather than being able to protect the people dear to him, he instead was forced to face his own death, and so ran away.”-Nojima in AC prologue.

In case of Tifa, Cloud lays on the table what his plan of attack is for addressing "the problem". This is Cloud fighting. Cloud ends Case of Tifa smiling because at that point he thinks it might be alright. Cloud there is in a state of giving it one more shot, hoping that he can be someone who is able to protect the ones he loves. But this is followed, mere days later, by his disappearance, which has been stated to follow from him developing geostigma. And this should feel understandable. The moment you decide you're going to give it one last try you're extremely vulnerable to getting dejected by the universe seeming intent on proving you wrong. Cloud thinks "maybe even I can protect people", and almost as if to make a mockery of his hopes, he gets geostigma. This would serve as a final nail in the coffin, a confirmation that the voice in the back of Clouds head, the one he was trying to ignore, the one telling him that he wasn't good enough, that he didn't deserve happiness, and that he should just die for his sins, was right after all. So he leaves. But the important part to remember is that this is the context of Clouds thoughts during case of Tifa, this is what you need to keep in mind while judging Clouds actions. This is what he's going through, this is what's on his mind, and people who are going through something like this, especially men trying to carry the weight of the world on their own shoulders,well, this is often how they handle those feelings. Not wanting their loved ones to worry, being defensive, etc. sadly, Clouds behavior is completely expected, he's someone whose reserved by nature, who wants to protect his loved ones from any harm, including making sure they don't worry about "his problems", its an all too common behavior that causes more pain than it prevents, and is altogether negative, but it comes from a good place. Edit: Just realized I skipped half your question. Concerning the date, I think in the OG the developers probably never decided which one was canon. The date is never referred to again, nor did they expect to make more FFVII games and movies. This is one of the rare moments where I think saying "it's up to interpretation" might be valid. Then when Advent children and Crisis Core rolled around nothing in it depended on which date canonically happened, so it's still not sure if they ever really cemented it in their own minds. The thing is though, the reason there probably isn't a 100% certain canonical answer to this...is because it honestly doesn't matter. People obsess over the date, but really, the date is pretty trivial. Nothing important happens during the date. Tifa and Aerith reveal some of their inner thoughts, yes, but those inner thoughts are there whether the date happens or not. It's the thoughts themselves that matter, and the feelings that go with them, not that they said them to an emotionally absent Cloud who has no idea what they're talking about. And those thoughts, for both girls, are likely to be canon. Cloud doesn't engage either girl in intimacy, and Cloud is not the one to choose which girl to go on a date with. So it doesn't matter. If you feel the need to really argue the matter, I'd say that Tifa has the better evidence for her date being the canon one, that having been said, the evidence is mostly circumstantial, and I am highly doubtful that that evidence will really do much good in predicting who will go on the date in Remake. If you want to know who will go on the date in remake, it's better to look at what makes more sense from a narrative perspective, which scene allows the developers to do more with the story, and I think Aerith probably wins that, honestly, it's what I would do. The date is the last moment of true levity before tragedy strikes, it makes sense having Cloud spend that moment to build up some more emotional involvement with the person who is about to die, and will barely have any screentime for the second half of the game. Honestly, if Tifa gets the date, I would seriously start to worry that they might actually kill her off.

Not only that, but because Aerith is going to die, this is the last moment that the game can use to tie up the plot-arc of Aerith coming to terms with Zacks death through her time with Cloud. That needs to be addressed, and it is addressed during the date. Meanwhile, Tifas plot regarding her feelings for Cloud neither starts, nor ends, at the date. What the date does is give us more insight about them. However, it's arguable that Tifas uncertainty regarding everything surrounding Cloud, as well as her feelings towards him, could be better expressed through her wanting to go on a date with him, but discovering she's too late. This low point would make the eventual reveal that it was Tifa all along feel more satisfying. So that's my prediction, it's possible that Tifa and Cloud have the date, to make up for them never having gone out on the town, and it's possible that both girls get some sort of resolution scene again, in which case I think they'll probably do it similar to part one and make them all canon. But considering what I've said, and the difficulties in making a bunch of different complicated scenes, I think my initial guess is the most likely. Thanks for the question.

Thanks for the memories....

It was another good day in Chaldea's cafeteria. Rex and Quetz were enjoying a delightful meal like always. Until.... something set Quetz's memories off.

Boudica: hello all! How're all of you?!

Quetz: oh Boudica! We're great!

Rex: si! The food's been delicious!

Boudica: well that's great to hear! Well Da Vinci was telling me about this tradition drink that would've been enjoyed by Quetz's people back in the day, and thought you'd enjoy it.

Boudica said this as she set down cups with a white drink inside.

Quetz: oh, what would that be?

Boudica: she said it was called... Pulque?

When Quetz heard this, she froze. It looked like that name... set something off in her.

Quetz: .....

Rex: ....Mi Corazon? Are you ok?

Boudica: Quetzalcoatl? Do you.... not like it?

Quetz: u-uh.... I'm suddenly not feeling hungry....

Rex: m-mi diosa, is everything ok?

Boudica: i-if you want, I can take them back!?

Quetz: n-no.... it's fine, I'm just.... I'd like to just go back to our r-room is all

Rex: w-want me to go with you?

Quetz: .....s-si, gracias mi amor....

Rex: of course, mi corazon. Anything for you....

The two departed, hand in hand. Rex seeming to take the lead, as the goddess seemed down. Meanwhile, Da Vinci walked in next to Boudica.

Da Vinci: what was that about?

Boudica: I'd love to know myself....

In the couples' room, Rex sat Quetzalcoatl down in their bed, as she still seemed down.

Rex: is everything ok, Mi corazon? Do you need anything?

Quetz: I'm ok..... pero.... it's just that that drink.... brings back, not so good memories.....

Rex: really? W-would you mind telling me....?

Quetz: ....I don't know if that's a good idea....

Rex: hey.... Mi Diosa, if you're hurting I want to help you. No matter what, maybe telling me will help you feel better?

Quetz: .....n-no matter what?

Rex: si! No matter what!

Quetz: well.... you remember how I said.... I've never been with anyone before you... right?

Already Rex was worried. Did she lie? Was there someone else? Or is he jumping to conclusions? But he reassured himself that it didn't matter. Even if he wasn't her first, she still loved him. Nothing could take that away.

Rex: s-s-si.....?

Quetz: w-well.... that's still true pero..... there was almost.... someone before you....

Rex: almost?

Quetz: l-let me explain.

Back in the day, there was a goddess known as Mayahuel. She had many children that she had with many other gods, but she seemed to have been specifically infatuated with Quetzalcoatl. Quetzalcoatl wasn't interested for various reasons.

Mayahuel: p-please.....! Quetzalcoatl, why will you not reciprocate these feelings?!

Quetz: Mayahuel.... you know I'd rather be someone's one and only.... and I prefer men too.....

Mayahuel: but you're still open to women right?

Quetz: e-even still, I want children.... you can't give me that....

Mayahuel: but I do have children! 400!

Quetz: those wouldn't be my children! I want my own.... I do not want to raise someone else's.....

Mayahuel: pero.... you've been wanting a relationship for so long.... and I've been in love with you for so long! Logically wouldn't that mean we should get together?!

Quetz had thought that she.... kind of had a point. Maybe Quetz's standards have been.... too unrealistic.... and it had been a very long time..... perhaps she should.... consider it.....

Quetz: I-I'll think about it.....

Mayahuel: are you serious?!

Quetz: si.... that's not a "yes" tho, ok?! Understand?!

Mayahuel: o-of course I do!

Despite those words, the other goddess seemed to act as if Quetz had already said yes. The other goddess ran off, in some excitement.

Quetz: ay......

Quetz had decided to see, Xochiquetzal about this. Since, as a goddess of love, she should be able to help.

Xochi: so.... what did you want to see me about, Quetzalcoatl?

Quetz: well.... you remember Mayahuel?

Xochi: si?

Quetz: well.... I've been thinking..... maybe I should.... be with her?

Xochi: ....what do you mean?

Quetz: you know!!! I've.... been wanting a relationship for so long.... and.... she's been in love with me.... for so long. And e-even tho she wouldn't be.... my first choice.... maybe I should..... y'know, consider it.

Xochi: NO!

Quetz: Eh?! What do you mean?!

Xochi: Quetzalcoatl! That goddess CANNOT make you happy!

Quetz: eh?! A-are you sure?!

Xochi: You've already pointed out the various problems with her. First off, you prefer Men, second off, she cannot give you your own children! Only her 400 lil brats she had with others. Third off! You've always wanted to be someone's "one and only" she cannot and will not do that for you. Maybe you'd be her number one, but not her only one!

Quetz: B-but.... maybe I've been unrealistic....

Xochi: it is not unrealistic to want to be happy! You're a goddess of the highest regard, YOU out of all of us deserve to be happy! She won't be able to make you happy. Even if they're not here right now, I am certain you will find the god that WILL be able to do that.

Quetz: a-are you certain?! I will be able to find him....?

Xochi: of course I am sure! You will be able to find someone who will treat you how you want to be treated, you'll be his one and only, and he'll be your's and you'll make BEAUTIFUL children together! I know it!

Quetz: alright.... I'll tell Mayahuel.... that I refuse... to be with her....

Xochi: do you want me to come with you? We do not know how she'll take it....

???: TOO LATE!

The two look over, to see that Mayahuel had been listening the whole time. Now she stood there, with tears down her eyes.

Mayahuel: D-Damn you Xochiquetzal! How dare you say I cannot make her happy!

Xochi: BECAUSE I KNOW YOU! YOU'D NEVER CHANGE, NOT EVEN FOR HER!

Mayahuel: you don't know that!

Quetz: I'm sorry Mayahuel..... but she's right.... I want a loyal husband... with our own children..... y-you... can't be what I want....

Mayahuel: *sniffle* I-I.... I hope you NEVER FIND WHAT YOU WANT! AFTER BREAKING MY HEART LIKE THIS!!!

Quetz: Mayahuel please stop this!

Then Mayahuel ran off, to who knows where.

Quetz: Wait!!!

Xochi: let her go..... she needs time to realize we're right....

Quetz: I understand... but I still feel guilty.....

Meanwhile, Mayahuel was running through the jungle.... still heartbroken....

Mayahuel: Damn That Xochiquetzal! She doesn't know what she's saying! Of course I can make Quetzalcoatl happy! But now, thanks to her I'll never get the chance!

But then..... Mayahuel ran into.... someone else

*bump!*

Mayahuel: oof! Hey! Watch where you're going......

Before her, stood Itzpapalotl, a monstrous goddess. She looked at Mayahuel with eyes burning with rage.

Itzpa: YOU!

Mayahuel: oh no.... not now.....

Itzpa: I've been looking for you...

Mayahuel: s-sister.... I-I am s-sorry for what the ch-children did but.... you don't need to t-take it out on m-me....

Itzpa: TOO LITTLE TOO LATE! "SiStEr"! You're little BRATS have gone too far this time!

Mayahuel: p-please....

Itzpa: and you're going to pay the price....

Mayahuel: n-no.....

Itzpa: IN BLOOD!

AAAAAAHHH!

Back with Quetz and Xochi.

Quetz: did you hear that!?

Xochi: it sounded like Mayahuel!

The two then ran towards the source of the sound. After some time... all they saw was Itzpapalotl, standing over the dismembered body parts of Mayahuel.... littering the jungle floor, blood all over.

Quetz: Itzpa! What did you do!?

Xochi: what is wrong with you!?

Itzpa: it needed to be done.... after what her brats did.....

Xochi: w-where is Coyolxauhqui?! She should've been watching Itzpa!

Quetz: I don't know!

But the damage was done.... Mayahuel was gone.....

Quetz: i-is.... is this my fault....? If... I hadn't denied her.... she wouldn't have....

Xochi: No! Do not blame yourself Quetzalcoatl! It's just.... horrid circumstances..... you're not to blame.....

Quetz: but even so..... I will still do something...... to honor her loss....

Xochi: what would that be?

Quetz stood over the torn flesh of the deceased goddess and all of a sudden a bright light sparkled above the pieces. Then after all that was left was a Maguey plant.

Xochi: what's that?

Quetz: a new plant..... Maguey. And from it.... the people will be able to produce a precious new drink.... we'll call it Pulque....

After that, we return to present day.

Rex: ah.... so that's why that drink brings such.... sad memories....

Quetz: *sigh* si.... even tho I couldn't love her..... I still feel guilty over that....

Rex: it's ok, mi corazon..... don't be sad....

Rex said this as he hugged his beloved.

Quetz: gracias mi amor.... and thank you for listening.... I wasn't sure how'd you handle it.....

Rex: of course I'd listen for you.... like I said ANYTHING Para mi corazon!

Quetz: I'm so happy to have met you.....!

Rex: and I am happy to have met you!

After some time, Quetzalcoatl felt better. And so the two decided to try out some summoning for the day. Just a few rolls.

Rex: think we'll get someone new?

Quetz: maybe....? It's possible....

The summoning chamber starts up, and an Alter Ego symbol is displayed.

Rex: oh!

Quetz: hmmmm!

Then the servant appears.

???: Alter Ego class, I am many deities in one, but as my main personality is Mayah- oh....

Quetz: Que?!

Rex: What?!

Mayahuel?: aye........

A/N: hope you all enjoyed my reinterpretation of an Aztec myth. Along with some.... more RexCoatl lore....

I hope you all had a good day whether you celebrated or not ❤️. Here’s a little Daddy Angel for you all! Thank you for reading and like always I hope you enjoy! 🥰

*gif not mine*

Warnings: A little Angst and Fluff

On the edge of your king size bed you sat in Angel’s lap rapping your fingers anxiously across your thighs. Angel massaged your shoulders soothingly, running his rough hands down your smooth skin and resting them on top of your hands as he held on to them, ceasing your anxious tick. He nuzzled into the crook of your neck placing sweet kisses to your exposed flesh as he murmured to you. “This is the one, amor. I can feel it.”

You listened to his words trying to believe them in your heart as you repeated to yourself in your mind over and over again that this was the one. This would finally be the one and all the disappointments of the past year would be worth it.

This was the one and you would finally be pregnant again.

You closed your eyes taking a deep breath trying but failing to settle the fluttering nerves from within. “How much longer?” You whined. This was always the worst part, the waiting.

Angel glanced at his phone lying face up on the bed beside you, the digital timer counting down across the screen. “About four and a half more minutes.” He said as you groaned at his response. He wrapped his arms around you pulling you closer, bringing you some comfort. Neither one of you could have imagined it would be this difficult to conceive again with your two other children being conceived without even trying. They were your happy little accident miracles.

After the longest four minutes of silence in your life the tiny alarm on the phone beeped rapidly signaling the wait was finally over. Reaching over Angel canceled the alarm setting his phone back down as you remained seated. “Time’s up, babe.” He said looking over at you.

"I can't." You said looking back at him, eyes pleading.

Angel nodded, slipping you off his lap and onto the bed beside him. Standing up he gave you a smile. "This is the one." He repeated trying to keep positive thoughts. Leaving you there waiting he walked into the large master bathroom connected to your bedroom. Across the room sat the tiny stick on the marble countertop. He stood in the doorway a moment trying to get up the nerve to go look, his hands trembling.

The two of you were so excited when you first decided to try for another. It was a lazy day as you sat outside on your porch swing watching your daughter Penelope splash and play with her younger brother Mateo. She was so good after he was born taking on the role of big sister effortlessly. The two of you were incredibly proud of her. And little Mateo was the sweetest little boy, a Mama's boy through and through. He was always watching Angel though, wanting to be just like his daddy.

"We made some pretty fantastic kids, didn't we?" You said smiling as you snuggled in close resting your head against Angel's shoulder.

Angel pulled you closer as he watched his children. "We should have another." He said looking down at you.

You looked up at him getting lost in his eyes. Your heart rate sped up as the excitement set in at what he was saying. "We should." You agreed.

You began trying that night. It started off as fun and exciting. The sex was great and the two of you were so ecstatic at the prospect of expanding your family some more. But with every negative test, all the high hopes that just kept getting crushed, it became more of a chore than an act of love, a means to an end.

Gathering his courage Angel took a deep breath and trudged further into the bathroom stopping just before the counter. He wasn’t ready but his eyes betrayed him looking dead on the little screen. He lifted it off the counter, eyes filling with tears as his heart sank. The dreaded single line stared back at him. Another negative test and he didn’t know how to break it to you. He didn’t want to watch as your eyes lit up in anticipation as he entered your bedroom only for him to witness that light, the sparkle dull away to nothing like it did everytime he had to break your heart.

Running his hand over his eyes he wiped his tears away as he took a couple of deep breaths shaking his head in hopes of pushing back his own emotions. Turning back around he walked out of the bathroom stopping at the doorway. You had been fiddling with your hands in your lap as you waited. As soon as you heard him in the doorway you picked your head up the rush of adrenaline rushing through you in anticipation until you saw his face, that's when your own heart sank. You could tell he was trying to put on a brave face but you knew him so well you could see right through him. He didn't have to say anything, you knew.

Standing up you padded over to him wrapping your arms around his torso and laying your head against his chest. He wrapped his arms tightly around you holding you close as you listened to his heartbeat. Angel leaned down kissing the top of your head. "Next time." He murmured although he didn't believe it in his heart. It felt like the two of you were just not destined to have another no matter how badly you wanted.

You brought your face back looking up at him. "That's what we said last time, and the time before, and the time before that." You whispered afraid of what your voice might sound like. "I'm so tired," you said defeatedly, "I don't think I can do this anymore, Angel."

He understood, he wasn't sure he himself could either. There was only so much heartbreak he could stand himself let alone having to witness yours. "That's okay," he said running the back of his fingertips down the side of your face. "Maybe we should take a step back, just stop trying for now. It's not worth all this pain and stress, mi dulce. As much as I'd love to have a thousand children with you,"

You giggled lightly at his words, "Now I think that's a little excessive," you teased earning a light chuckle from him as well.

"The two we have will do just fine. Our family is beautiful and special. I wouldn't ask to have it any other way. I love you, and I love them, you're all I need." Leaning down he titled your chin up bringing his lips to yours.

"I love us too," you murmured into his kiss.

Summer was here now and you were just finishing dressing Mateo after your children’s nightly bath.

"When's Daddy going to be home?" Penelope asked you. She was sitting in the middle of your large bed trying to rub the sleep from her eyes. The three of you could manage fine when Angel was out late or on runs but it didn't mean it wasn't hard.

Picking Mateo up you walked over to the bed and set him down beside his sister. "Dada?" He asked wondering the same thing as his sister.

You sighed, pulling them close for a hug. "Daddy will be home later tonight.” You said holding them close. “How about just for tonight we can watch a movie on Mommy and Daddy's big TV." You offered widening your eyes in excitement.

Your two children perked up at the idea, the offer being a good distraction.

"I'm going to go get ready for bed and pick up some. How about you two get the movie started and I will be right in." You handed P the remote kissing her forehead once and running your hand down the side of your son's face before heading back into the bathroom.

You washed your face quickly dabbing some moisturizer on your skin and then brushed your teeth. Slipping into one of Angel's shirts you threw your clothes into the hamper, picking up the discarded ones of your children from the floor and tossing them in as well. You then scooped the toys out of the bottom of the tub and setting them into the little basket you stored them in. You yawned after another exhausting day chasing after your children. It was summer finally so both kids were home full time and you were really starting to feel it. Angel was always good about helping out but the club had been busier recently so he had not been home as often. Still you didn't think you should be this tired, you used to be able to keep up with no problem but then again you were getting older. To top things off the heat had been terribly high already only adding to your discomfort, causing you to feel overheated and nauseous most days.

You stood up stretching your back out from being hunched over the tub. Turning around you opened the cupboard door under the sink setting the basket of toys inside and pulling out the one next to it full of hair supplies. Slipping it out there was a small thud and rush of movement from the corner of your eye catching your attention. You set the basket on the counter and bent back over to pick the thing up stopping just as your hand reached it. It was a box of pregnancy tests you had left over from when you and Angel were trying for another baby. Your heart clenched a little as you pulled the box out and looked at it. You stared at the box a while before tearing the cardboard box and taking one of the tests out of its packaging.

You don't know why you were doing it, maybe boredom or curiosity and the fact you had to pee anyways. Without overthinking too much about it or second guessing yourself you made your way to the toilet taking the test quickly before sticking the cap back on and setting it down while you washed your hands.

"Mamma you're gonna miss it!" You heard your daughter call out from the bedroom.

Drying off your hands you smiled to yourself grabbing the comb, detangler spray and hair ties from the basked. You made your way back to the room situating yourself behind your daughter as Mateo cuddled up close laying his head on your thigh. You began combing out Penelope's hair. "What are we watching this time?"

"Moana," Penelope said, wiggling a little in excitement before you stilled her gently and got to work on detangling her hair.

You mostly just listened to the movie as it played your children’s attentions intently on the screen. Humming along to the song you now knew by heart you tied off Penelope’s braid patting her back gently letting her know you were done. You gently removed Mateo’s head from your leg slipping out and off the bed from behind your two kids. Mateo snuggled into his sister instead now the two of them holding each other as they continued watching the movie. You would never get over little moments like this.

Bringing the comb and detangler to your bathroom you set them back in the basket, the test catching your attention again. You mentally scolded yourself for even taking the damn thing, picking it up and taking it to the trash bin. You tossed it into the bin, your eyes comprehending the results on the screen just as it landed in the bottom of the empty bin. Your heart stopped as you stared down your eyes filling instantly with tears. You brought your hand up to your mouth stifling the joyful sob that escaped your lips.

There on the screen were the two most beautiful lines you had ever seen, the lines you so desperately wanted all those times before.

You almost couldn’t contain your excitement. Your initial reaction was to call Angel right away and share the glorious news but then you decided to wait. You wanted the moment you told him to be special, and in person.

You bent down picking the test up and stared at it a little longer wiping the tears from your eyes. You tucked the test in the back of a drawer and exited your bathroom once more shutting the light off on your way out.

Mateo and Penelope were now tucked under the covers and you slipped into bed with them Mateo instantly snuggling into you. Penelope snuggled her brother and you wrapped your arm around the two of them silently watching the rest of the movie. As the credits rolled you couldn’t keep it in any longer. You looked over at your two wide awake children beside you.

“Mama has a surprise,” you said smiling. Penelope sat up anticipating your next words eagerly with Mateo copying his sister. “How would you guys feel about having a baby brother or sister?”

Penelope’s eyes lit up as she gasped with the biggest smile. She loved being a big sissy more than anything. Mateo again copied his sister even though he didn’t really fully understand what you were talking about. He could just feel the excitement joining in with the two of yours. “I want a baby sister more than anything!” Penelope squealed.

You giggled running your hand down the side of her face. “Well you might just get that but we won’t know for a little while longer.” You said placing your hand gently on your stomach. “We have to keep this a secret though. Can you do that for me?”

Penelope nodded rapidly. “Of course Mama! I’m great at secrets!” She boasted.

“Good.” You smiled over at her. “We’re gonna surprise Daddy tomorrow, okay?”

She nodded some more before jumping into your arms giving you a big hug. Mateo piled on top of her filing your heart with love from your children.

“Mama’s going to have a baby!” Penelope told Mateo trying to explain to her baby brother.

“Baby?” He asked, smiling.

“That’s right Baby,” you ran your hand across his hair. “Mama has a baby in her belly.” You tried to explain pointing to your stomach.

“Baby,” he repeated patting your belly. Then he pointed to his own repeating, “baby.” He giggled.

You and your daughter laughed at the cute response from your son. “No silly,” Penelope said, pulling him closer to her, “You don’t have a baby, Mama does!” She tried to explain but the little boy just kept pointing to his own belly repeating the word baby over and over.

“Alright,” you chuckled. “Now it’s getting late and way past your bedtime. It’s time to sleep, my little loves.”

“Can we watch Moana just once more? Please.” Penelope begged.

You gave in starting the movie over again knowing it wouldn’t be long until the two tuckered out and fell asleep beside you. You were right and soon Mateo was sleeping first, his head snuggled on your chest and his legs sprawled out to his sister with Penelope sleeping all sprawled out across Angel’s side of the bed. You didn’t make it halfway through yourself before you dozed off along with them.

It was past midnight when Angel got home. He was exhausted after a long day. The only thing he wanted was just to be able to be with his family. He kicked his boots off and hung his cut up by the door like he always did. The front hall light was left on for him like you always did and he made his way to the kitchen smiling as he saw the cookie left out for him with a little drawing from his children. He ate the cookie washing it down with some milk and then followed the faint sound and light of the tv down the hall and to the bedroom. He stopped in the doorway smiling as he looked on at his family snuggled up together and fast asleep with just the light of the tv illuminating their features.

You didn’t have trouble sleeping often but were a much lighter sleeper when Angel was not home. It was as if you could feel his comforting presence as you opened your eyes and looked over to where he was standing in the entrance to your bedroom.

“Hey,” he said softly smiling when he saw you looking at him.

“Hey,” you smiled, one hand resting lovingly on your stomach under the covers and the other wrapped around Mateo. “Happy Father’s Day.” You said softly as well.

Stepping over to your side of the bed he leaned down kissing you slowly. “Thank you, mi vida.”

You smiled getting lost in his eyes. You itched to tell him the good news but it wouldn’t be long until you did, so you willed yourself to be patient.

He leaned over you giving his son a kiss to the forehead. The little guy wiggled and smiled in his sleep as he snuggled closer. Then he walked over to his side of the bed and undressed, slipping on some shorts before crawling in beside Penelope. He lifted her arm and pushed her left over as he situated himself into the bed with his family. She snuggled against his chest and he wrapped his arm around her, settling it on her back. With his other arm he reached out running his hand through Mateo’s soft curls before finding yours hand and entwining his finger with yours.

You looked at one another, your children safe between you until you both drifted off into a deep sleep you could only get with the comfort of the other being near.

Morning came quickly and you were all rushing to get ready and head to Felipe’s for the day. You were helping Penelope get dressed as Angel was working on getting Mateo ready.

“Baby,” Mateo said grinning down at his belly as he pointed to it.

“No you’re a big boy now.” Angel said as he snapped his son's matching plaid shirt up. “Not a baby anymore little man. And soon you’re gonna be using the big boy potty too.” The two of you had been working on potty training the you f boy which was going slowly but Angel was certain he’d get the hang of it soon.

“Baby.” Mateo repeated and Angel just shook his head picking the boy up and into his arms.

“Alright little man, let’s go check on our girls.”

After many times back and forth from the house to the car with forgetting the gifts and then Penelope deciding she did in fact have to use the bathroom after you asked her twice resulting in you almost having a meltdown you were finally at Felipe’s to celebrate Father’s Day with your family.

You swore it was like herding cats. You could forget about ever being early to anything ever again since you had children but you could live with that.

“Happy Father’s Day.” You sang pulling Felipe in for a hug followed by your children.

“Happy Father’s Day!” Penelope shouted squeezing her abuelo tightly.

“Thank you Penelope." Felipe chuckled holding her tight before taking Mateo into his arms from Angel.

"Happy Father's Day, Pops." Angel said, giving him a quick hug with Felipe saying the same and set Mateo down to go play with his sister before he went to find a seat.

EZ entered the backyard bringing with him some beers for the occasion. Grinning he pulled his brother into a tight hug smacking his back a few times with his free hand. "Happy Father's Day old man." He said, still grinning. "Getting gray and everything," he teased his older brother.

"Blow me." Angel grinned, shoving his brother lightly.

“Wouldn’t you rather have your wife do that?” EZ smirked, pushing his brother's buttons some more.

“Ezekiel Reyes!” You scolded walking by and smacking him upside the back of the head playfully, “There are children here!”

Angel wrapped his arm around your waist pulling you close. “I mean he’s not wrong and it is Father’s Day,” Angel smirked down at you wiggling his eyebrows. “I’m sure no one will miss us if we’re gone for a few. EZ will watch the kids.”

“Yeah?” You smirked up at him and bit your bottom lip. He leaned down closer to you for a kiss and you took the opportunity to smack him across the back of the head too.

“Ow,” he whined, rubbing the back of his head, EZ laughing beside you.

“That’s what you get for saying such vulgar things at a family gathering.” You teased.

Angel licked his lips as he looked at you thinking of the many vulgar things the two of you had snuck away from gatherings of all sorts of natures to do. “Alright, I guess I can wait until we’re home and then you can give me your special surprise.”

You rolled your eyes, shoving him lightly. “Have a beer and cool down before you bust your pants or some shit. I’m gonna go get the gifts from the car.” Your stomach began filling with nerves again as you walked away from the two and back towards the house. You glanced back once blushing as you caught Angel watching you.

Angel and EZ made their way over to their Pops handing him a beer and sitting beside him, cracking them open. Mateo ran over practically jumping into Felipe’s lap.

“Hey little man?” EZ asked looking over at the small boy who was almost an exact copy of Angel. He was a chunky little thing just like Angel had been. “Where’s your sister?”

“Mama!” Mateo squealed excitedly.

“She’s with Mama getting the gifts?” Angel asked, looking at his boy.

He nodded happily wiggling in Felipe’s lap. “Mama,” he giggled snuggling in close to his abuelo and then started pointing to his belly again, “baby!”

EZ looked at Angel’s questioningly. “What’s that about?” He chuckled.

“Like I would know?” Angel replied shaking his head snickering as he took a swig of his beer, “I guess it’s his new thing.” He turned his attention back to Mateo who was looking back at him with those big brown eyes of his. “Maybe we’re pushing the potty training too hard.”

“He’ll get there,” Felipe spoke up drinking his own beer. “You have a beautiful family, Angel.” He said looking at his eldest. He knew he didn’t say it enough but he was proud of the man Angel had become and the life he had made for himself with his family. “I’m proud of you, son.”

Angel’s heart clenched at those words. He cleared his throat holding his beer up. “Thanks Pops.” The men heard the giggles of Penelope coming around the house and their attention turned to the two of you walking their way. “Couldn’t have done it without her.” He said as he made eye contact with you, his heart rate picking up everytime he saw you even after all these years.

Penelope ran ahead of you jumping into EZ’s lap nearly knocking him down, her giggles never ending. “How are you so energetic without even having cake yet?” EZ asked her.

“It’s a secret.” She sang wrapping her arms around his large arm.

“What?” EZ mocked hurt, “You never keep secrets from me P!”

“Hey, secrets aren’t allowed young lady.” Angel spoke up looking at his daughter who giggled more burying her face in EZ’s chest.

You finally caught up and handed the men their gifts. Taking a seat in front of them you smiled at Mateo as he crawled off Felipe’s lap and onto yours. Felipe opened his gift first smiling as he unfolded the apron that Angel helped the kids decorate. He smiled thanking you all for the wonderful gift.

Next it was Angel’s turn. He held the box in his hand getting ready to open it without a clue as to what wonderful news it held inside. Penelope sat up straight in her tio’s lap giggling harder now as she shook in excitement. Angel looked at you and then his daughter suspiciously. “I swear to God if something pops out at me,” Angel said.

“Don’t you trust me, baby?” You asked, smiling at him.

Angel looked at you melting under your gaze, “Of course I trust you, amor. It’s our mischievous little girl and her trouble causing tio I don’t trust.” He added, looking between his brother and daughter. His younger brother had recently been teaching her the art of pranking and where it was fun at first, recently Angel had become her sole victim.

“Don’t look at me,” EZ said, holding his free hand up in defense. “Whatever it is I had no part in.”

“Just open it Daddy!” She encouraged him. She was about ready to burst with all the excitement and couldn’t wait for him to find out.

“Alright,” Angel gave in. He untied the bow carefully glancing up at you once more looking so beautiful across from him holding Mateo on his lap. Returning his attention back to the box he smiled removing the ribbon completely and opening the lid. Setting the lid aside he took in the note written in your best handwriting.

'Guess who is finally outnumbered? We did it! Happy Father's Day!'

He read it once and then again processing the message in his mind. His heart beat faster as he looked up at you, the tears already threatening to spill from his eyes. You met his gaze, your own eyes filling and you smiled softly. “Is this for real?” He asked in disbelief. “You’re not fucking with me?”

“I would never,” you replied, voice breaking slightly.

Angel looked back down pulling the note out and finding the test beneath it. Those two little lines were the best thing he had ever seen. He handed the box over to his brother standing up quickly and making his way to you. Leaning over he cupped your face in his kissing you before resting his forehead against yours, your son between you. He blinked a few times, the tears falling to your face as he looked into your eyes. “I’ve never been happier.” He mumbled, “This is the best fucking Father’s Day ever.”

“Baby!” Mateo shouted between you and now Angel got it.

Angel scooped Mateo into his arms holding him tight. “That’s right little man. You’re gonna be a big brother.”

Penelope was ecstatic for the news to finally be shared and jumped out of EZ’s lap who was looking at the note and test with a grin on his face now. She ran to Angel wrapping her arms around his leg and he caressed her head.

You stood up joining your family. Wrapping your arm around Angel you leaned your head against his shoulder. “Happy Father’s Day Daddy.” You cooed.

Angel smiled at you and then his two beautiful children. It was going to be a ride being outnumbered but wasn’t anything he couldn’t handle with you by his side. “Best fucking Father’s Day ever.” He repeated. Angel was very thankful to be surrounded by family who loved him and who he loved more than anything.
