bnd fav positions???

oh hi there 🤩 istg I thought I made this already but I checked (im dumb so maybe i did and missed it) and didn’t see anything in regards to this so let’s get to it !!

————————————————————————

pairing: bnd legal line x reader.

warnings: +18, smut.

summary: bnd legal line favorite positions.

——————————————————————————

sungho; call me crazy but sungho is such a reverse missionary man (idk if that’s the name or if that’s a thing but see the picture attached at the end for reference of what im talking about) because omg, he needs you close, he needs to feel your body, your warmth and the way your ass has that small friction with his pelvis drives him crazy. he would intertwine your fingers and kiss his way from your shoulder, neck, jawline and finally your lips, making you squirm and shake due to the pressure his own body has on yours. ugh, he’s such a good and loving fucker, I-

riwoo; sooooo cowgirl but he’s sitting up and y’all are staring into each other eyes and kissing. i do not make the rules, i just follow them. he is sooooo into you (quite literally), kissing your lips and softly moaning against them while you bounce on his cock, his hands traveling from your ass to your thighs, back up to your waist and finally hugging you to bury his face on your neck and start thrusting up when he can’t take anymore and feels your cunt tightening around his dick. makes u come every time, and every time you come back.

jaehyun; reverse cowgirl, yes. he is laying back on the bed, his head slightly raised against the pillow and he can only see the way your pussy takes his dick, your ass giving him the view he needs to shiver and let small cries out. the way you can handle him is insane, choosing the pace and rotating your hips when you felt his dick twitch inside of your pussy. this position had you in control but it also gave him the chance to thrust up and hold your hips from the back every once in a while to make YOU tremble and scream his name before you creamed his cock.

taesan; would y’all believe me if I said missionary? cause he definitely goes for this one every single time. he loves to see your face, he loves to be in top of you, feel your heart race against his chest, see how you blush and how your face contours when you moan his name softly, letting him know how good he was fucking you. and he especially loved the control he had on the pace, thrusting deep but not too rough until it was necessary to make you cry out loud because of how good he felt, his dick would love your insides, slowly dragging himself inside of your wet pussy and kissing your lips as the cherry on top when you came, smiling at you when the tight grip your hands and arms had on his back loosened and you just gave in to his chest while you kissed each other.

leehan; okay but like wtf. i feel like leehan would be one of a kind, multipurpose, fucking you on every position available. but if i had to pick one for him… maybe cowgirl? like the regular one, you facing him but he’s laying down in bed. i feel like he would let you take the lead, allowing you to adjust to him but he would also want to look at you, asserting his dominance with just a stare and a little smirk, holding your hips just for support and nodding at you while licking/ biting his lips and moaning a little bit for you when you started moving. that alone would make you clench your cunt and he knows the effect he overall has in you.

—————-

I forgot to add the picture of sungho’s position :’) but here it is. This is kinda what I meant

Xolo Maridueña x Macchio!Reader

Ralph Macchio x Daughter!Reader

SMAU

I wanted to do a fic with dad Ralph Macchio, but I figured that alone wouldn't be interesting so I added Xolo as a romantic interest. Lowkey starts kinda crappy but gets better as the story evolves

I also kept his real kids out of this because I didn't feel comfortable including them

JUST FLUFF/COMFORT SCENARIOS WITH YOUR BNHA BOYS

characters: Bakugou, Midorya, Iida, Shoto

genre: fluff, confort

warnings: none, endgame Todoroki personally ig(??)

relationship: up to your personal interpretation

-he's one with physical touch or being a listener, not very good at words

- listening>>>>>

-he would be startled at first and don't know how to act but at the end he'll be "kind" (HIS type of kind)

-not the best at conventional comforting but he's amazing at his own way of confort

"The hell you're doing in my door at this time?" the blond complained at the sight of you in front of his door at 1am, he's normally not up at this hour but some assignments kept him up

You had a shit day and couldn't sleep, the only person you thought could ease things up without asking too much questions was Bakugou since well.. he was not one who cares to ask much anyway

"Can i just come in for a bit?" you voice was off and Bakugou definitely noticed that, now looking better your everything was different,.you didn't even look him in the eye, like your confidence washed away and this was the biggest challenge you ever faced

He rubbed his temple "Ugh, sure just don't bother me too much, it's already late" opening his door a bit more so you could enter, you went straight up sitting on the floor but the blonde contested "What are you doing?" you looked confused "You said not to bother so i thought —"

"Look, you can sit on the bed or something, just don't take much space" he was annoyed from how small your figure felt, figuratively speaking, you usually get on his nerver but not like this

You followed him sitting on the bed and stayed in comfortable silence for some minutes "What's up with you anyway?" glancing his way you saw his face a bit softer but firm as always, it was his way of showing he is listening, so you rambled for hours on end with his total attention

"You had it rough, just... you don't have to go back if you don't want to" you glanced at him wondering what he meant "Look... sleep here if you feel like it, i don't care" he bumped your side a bit "But if you hog all of the blankets im kicking your ass out, got it?" his playful rough tone didn't match the sympathetic smile on his face

keep it a secret but he didn't mind you clinging to him a bit at night (if it was too much he def pushed you away)

-He's def good a comforting, maybe gets nervous of what to do at first but he'll manage

- words of affirmation kinda guy

-good at comforting but not with advice

- won't mind physical touch but normally doesn't initiate it

It was dawn after a day at UA, Midorya finally finished his workout and headed to the dorms, on his way someone sitting on the roof caught his eye

It was you, that decided after a bad training to stay in your "safe spot" for some time to clear your head up "What are you doing here Y/n?" a concerned voice spoke, looking behind you saw Midorya with his soft eyes filled with worry "Oh, it's you. I'm just resting for a bit, nothing much don't worry"

The boy sat by your side "Anyone would worry about someone being alone at the edge of a rooftop" he gave a bitter laugh and hesitatingly touched your shoulder in an attempt of comfort "You can trust me to vent, I'm here for you"

That was when you lost it, looking down you started to cry your eyes out from all the stress and opened up about everything that was bothering you, Midorya looked nervous for a bit, like he was the one to make you cry, retracting his hand to himself on instinct

Almost instantly you rested your head on his shoulder, after saying everything his shirt was soaking wet from all the tears but he didn't mind "Thank you, you're the best, Midorya" the boy, unnoticed by you, blushed bashfully "Anytime, you're important to me after all" it was his turn to put his head against yours, hugging you for extra comfort

-What can i say? This man it's probably terrible at comforting, good with advice but definitely not comforting

-Def gives you some stiff hugs if, and only if, you ask

-acts of service>>>>

- Tries to stay more with you after the situation to help with anything (quality time and acts of service)

You didn't come to class for the day and as the class president it was Iida's duty to give you notes, the only thing is that you didn't answer the door or texted anyone, even your friends so everyone was worried

He was at your door "Hey, Y/n can you please open up? We're all concerned with your well-being and i need to hand you today's notes" softly knocking, again and again, but to no avail

He was getting frustrated "Look, im going to keep knocking until you open up. I need to give you these notes, it's my duty as a president to deliver them to you!" the door opened and your miserable self was right behind it, the boy was concerned right away about your well being

"What's going on with you? Are you sick? Do tou need me to talk to—" you cut him off "Look, Iida, i appreciate the notes, I'm not so good but I'll handle this with mr.Aizawa" you were about to close the door when the boy's foot got in the way

"You're not going to lock yourself in your room alone! You need assistance!" you denied his advances but he continued "Let me in, please... i want to help you" his tender voice made you feel safe so you let him in, physically and emotionally

Your dorm was a mess and you felt embarrassed to let someone tidy as Iida in at this state "Sorry, I didn't want anyone to see this mess, i cleaned up my desk today but I don't have any energy left to —"

"You sure look tired, get some rest while i clean this" Iida wasn't expecting to see this, he never even imagined you would let this happen, that's why he wanted to help, he knew you weren't in the right state of mind and that's okay, you contested but he insisted, and like that tou rested while he cleaned you room, you made sure to thank him later

The day after you went to him and thanked him, you even got a hug back huh

-I don't really think he even knows how to comfort someone

-Maybe he'll do something for you??

-It would be kinda awkward ngl

-He would try his best fr

-Says the most on point shit without thinking it means much

It's been a week that your quirk hasn't been useful for the type of training you're doing in class and that's been upsetting you deeply, either way, you couldn't dare to tell anyone, they seemed to go so smoothly that was embarrassing you were struggling

Today was another day like those and you were so tired of not being a "real hero", when you saw your score being the last one you couldn't help to excuse yourself to the change room the fake attitude of not carrying wouldn't last longer than this, but it was enough so that nobody noticed something was wrong

Except that Todoroki did notice, how could he not? You were strange all week but at the same time didn't look like it to the untrained eye at least, he could see past that facade easily, so he went after you

You were miserable sitting on the corner of the changing room, not crying or panicking, jsut wondering was this hero life really for you? "Why did you leave the training grounds like that?" looking to the side you saw Shoto, this unsettled you, nobody could know "Training was just intense, you know? Just tired" getting up you smiled at him

"I'm not one to pry but you know that holding everything in doesn't help, right?" those words hit you like a truck, how could he be so on point without knowing anything? "What?... Ha, there's nothing—" you looked at him as he stared blankly at your trembling figure "Seriously! I—" the stuttering didn't got you anywhere, it just confirmed what the boy needed to know

Realizing there's no turn backs form this you just let yourself be and opened up to him, Todoroki heard every bit and tried his best at comforting you, reassuring your quirk was good like any other, by the end of it he was glad he picked up on the hints, he knew how bottling up emotions affected someone, imagine from how long you would've kept this if nobody noticed

You whipped a tear or two that escaped "Thank you for listening, Todoroki, i appreciate it" now everything felt lighter but there was one feeling... "Hey, just don't see me as weak after all of this, kay?... " the boy looked at you softly

"Never thought of it, besides, opening up is a sign of strength", now completely relieved you and Todoroki walked out of the room right in time for the next class, it was nice having someone that knew you struggled and was there for you after all

Things Ethan Landry would text- (Fem Friend Reader) PART 3

Warnings- mentions of smut, knifeplay, sexting, fearplay, confessions to murder.

If you guys like this, I’ll make an extended version, where I write a story in Y/n’s pov that happens after this texting story:)

The Ballad Of Terror

Y/n: hey loser

Ethan: Loser? that’s new.

Y/n: but true

Ethan: no good night text, bunny?

Y/n: ugh stop calling me that. I promise I don’t jump that weird.

Ethan: in PE class you look like a rodent

Y/n: shut up

Y/n: I want something else first before you get your good night text

Ethan: let me guess. You need homework answers?

Y/n: I don’t get anything in science. I don’t even know what a molecule is.

Ethan: luckily I’m smart.

Y/n: luckily.

Ethan: click to view

Y/n: thank u <3

Ethan: np.

Ethan: hey, how are you and David doing together?

Y/n: why?

Ethan: I’m just curious

Y/n: maybe being curious isn’t always the right thing to be

Ethan: I’m your friend who wants you to be happy.

Y/n: I am happy

Ethan: with David?

Y/n: why are you asking that like david can’t make me happy?

Ethan: because I don’t think he could

Y/n: he does.

Ethan: oh, yeah?

Y/n: yes.

Ethan: as in, present tense?

Y/n omg yes

Y/n: why do you care so much?

Ethan: you broke up with him last night.

Y/n: how did you know that?

Y/n: Ethan??

Y/n: who told you

Ethan: no one told me.

Y/n: then why the fuck do you know?

Ethan: I watched you get that text. You cried over your bedside table.

Ethan: don’t leave me on read

Ethan: cmon

Y/n: how do you know

Ethan: I watched you through the window.

Y/n: you’re my friend

Y/n: this is scaring me

Ethan: Don’t be scared. Remember when you told me that you loved the real me?

Y/n: yes.

Ethan: this is the real me.

Y/n: a stalker?

Ethan: For you,

Ethan: Yes.

Y/n: if you were watching me, what was I wearing?

Ethan: That Ivy League shirt I bought for you in 2018.

Y/n: what pants, then ??

Ethan: oh, that’s the best part.

Y/n: please

Ethan: you weren’t wearing any

Ethan: you hiked your thighs to your chest

Ethan: you were wearing black panties

Y/n: you’re a fucking creep

Ethan: don’t be like that.

Y/n: how long has this been going on?

Ethan: How long have I been in love with you?

Ethan: or watching you sleep

Ethan: ?

Y/n: i should call the police. do you stalk other girls?

Ethan: you’re the only one for me

Ethan: nobody makes me feel the way you make me feel

Ethan: All those girls meant nothing to me. They couldn’t replace you.

Y/n: what girls?

Y/n: you’re a manwhore now?

Ethan: don’t be stupid. I didn’t fuck anyone

Ethan: I killed them

Y/n: im calling the police

Ethan: I disconnected the system from your number

Ethan: you can’t call anyone for help

Y/n: what do you want from me?

Ethan: Don’t you want to know?

Ethan: Why I did it?

Y/n: no

Ethan: I want to hurt you. Is that bad?

Ethan: it just turns me on so much

Ethan: to imagine you begging for me

Ethan: begging me not to slice you open

Ethan: fuck your brains out until your screaming my name

Ethan: i want to use you

Ethan: and you and I both know you would enjoy it

Y/n: you’re ghostface

Ethan: oh

Ethan: what gave it away ?

Y/n: you piece of shit.

Ethan: I don’t think you should insult me right now

Y/n: why? you gonna kill me??

Ethan: don’t tempt me.

Y/n: but apparently I already am. I’m basically asking for a knife to my throat, aren’t I?

Y/n: to watch your cock enter me as you choke me

Y/n: god, it would turn me on so much!!!

Ethan: I don’t take sarcasm too well

Ethan: if your asking for it, I’ll give it to you.

Y/n: im blocking you

Ethan: you can’t hide

Y/n: I’ll lock my doors. Get my parents to call the cops when they come back.

Ethan: your parents aren’t home?

Ethan: That changes things.

Y/n: I locked everything

Y/n: leave me alone

Ethan: why did you assume I was outside your house?

Y/n: please leave me alone

Ethan: let’s play a game of hide and seek, y/n.

Ethan: you run

Ethan: you hide

Ethan: and we’ll see if I can catch you.

Ethan: and if I do…

Ethan: god, I love making you my victim.

Y/n: Ethan please

Ethan: 3

Ethan: 2

Ethan: 1

Ethan: time to run, bunny.

[topwrite025]

The main reason I dislike aeon so much is particularly because capcom has this strange thing that they do where they don't really show us how in love they are, they TELL us. If your characters were genuinely as in love and enthralled with each other as you say they are, we wouldn't need every character they interact with to TELL us they're in love.

i.e: "sounds like you know her well" from RE4R, "you have feelings for her dont you?" from RE6, "I can't believe i actually miss her" from RE2R, etc

You do not need to constantly vocalize how in love they are if they're truly in love and the games do it so much that it becomes repetitive. Someone's always asking Leon about Ada and TELLING him his feelings for her instead of us being shown that hes longing for and pining for her.

And this doesnt work specifically because of Leon's dry, cynical attitude toward Ada even in the original games. Their chemistry doesn't actually start working (in a sense) until RE6 but in 6 its basically forced down the players' throats.

Not to mention (especially in the 4 remake) Ada has a very odd boredness around Leon that people claim she uses as a way to hide her feelings for him. But I bring you this as a counter: her attitude toward Luis in the Separate Ways DLC.

Ada shows more genuine joy and emotion around Luis than she does toward Leon (even in the other games (maybe beside 6)). At one point she even giggles and smiles at him (which she has NEVER done to Leon):

She is constantly angry and exasperated with Luis the same way she is with Leon but the difference is that it doesn't feel as mocking toward Luis as it does Leon. She softens a lot easier around Luis even in their very limited screen time and interactions.

She has only ever ALLOWED Luis to touch her. With Leon, SHE is the one dictating the interaction and how its going to work. With Luis, she is less harsh about it and actually allows him to support her and help her in a way Leon has not.

(NOTE THE CLOSENESS ADA IS ALLOWING FROM LUIS,)

(1 video per post limit ugh)

(VS HOW IMMEDIATELY SHE BRUSHED LEON OFF.)

She is very adamant about keeping Leon very far at arm's length and that COULD be because she has repressed feelings for him but it NEVER comes off that way. She is much more vibrant and emotional around Luis which we NEVER get to see around Leon. She's somewhat flirty and joking around Leon but not in the same way she is with Luis.

Aeon (imo) feels forced. Like capcom is TELLING us "hey, theyre meant for each other" when its not VISIBLE and not FELT like Leon/Ada's interactions are with other characters. Leon has more chemistry with Chris in Vendetta ALONE than he has with Ada. They feel meant for other characters but theyre being forced together in a way that feels clunky and badly written.

AND ANOTHER THING:

Capcom CANNOT just allow Ada to be a character without attaching her to Leon. Leon has his own arcs and development but she feels (ESPECIALLY IN THE OLD GAMES) like an accessory to him in the way her story and arc almost always completely revolve around him.

The Separate Ways DLC was changed SO much and it seems like they were trying to remedy it but even STILL she was constantly being stuck back to Leon and unallowed to have her own growth. She is the same old Ada because she can't become a different Ada if she's still attached to Leon's hip in the way capcom DESPERATELY needs her to be. The only biohazard movie she shows up in is Damnation and she's STILL Leon's little "femme fatale shadow of his past" character that i HATE. She disappears at the end of the movie and thats the LAST that we see of her.

I'm not saying that shipping aeon is like devil sent or the worst thing ever or anything, im just saying that (in my personal opinion) it doesnt work the way that most people think it does. Their relationship feels very surface level and forced. My biggest example of this is the kiss in RE2R. I've always had a problem with this scene particularly because aeon crusaders use it as a "GOTCHA!" moment to prove that theyre in love.

HOWEVER.

Ada seems disingenuous and Leon doesnt look overcome with love. Ada does this--not as impulse--but as a calculated move to catch Leon off guard and manipulate him into doing what she NEEDS him to do. It is her act of duty because she is immobile, injured, and a liability. She needs to act fast. So she does.

Leon does not react with wonder. He reacts with confusion. He does not look in love. He moves on from it very quickly. He appears to be questioning her and himself immediately after it is over. He does not react.

That is abject confusion.

I cannot say the same for the og re2 cause the graphics are pixels and the VA work is so bad that its hard to tell any emotion from it. But I can say in confidence that the kiss scene here does not seem to represent love at first sight.

The love at first sight trope is extremely difficult to pull off correctly and capcom had a good foundation for it... but not for Ada and Leon.

For Leon and CLAIRE.

They're much more involved together in RC in the original RE2 and the Darkside Chronicles and MUCH less present in the remake but STILL. The remake manages to capture a tenderness and genuine affection between them that Ada/Leon don't have in this game (or the others for that matter). The way they set up the Ada/Leon "romance" here is very strange. Like theyre trying to reassure us that theyre interested in each other without actually doing the emotional groundwork to prove it.

What particularly drives me crazy is that Aeon is in retrospect a very toxic ship that doesnt work between either of them. Ada treats Leon like a constant: "i dont have to work on this because he'll always be here waiting for me." And Leon always comes out of the otherside of their interactions worse off than he entered (think about the transition in his appearance and mental state from RE6 to Vendetta: the loss of weight, sarcastically dark hair, HEAVY alcohol use, increased suicidality) and of course this is affected by outside trauma as well, but it also has to do with Ada and her lingering influence on him that capcom must have in every game she appears in. It drags him down, makes him worse, and he never gets closure.

Ada also never gets closure because she pulls away before she can to avoid it for as long as possible. Which then just boils their dynamic down to "this is mysterious because we never communicate or accept each other into our lives" which in addition to the awful emotional layout capcom has done, just makes the ship extremely frustrating. And not in a slow burn "JUST KISS ALREADY" way. In a "can this please just be over already" kind of way.

I could go on about this all day but I'll shut up now lest the aeon shippers hear me from afar and come to rip my throat out

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Yes this is just my opinion. No i dont care if you ship aeon. No im not expecting to convert people or change your mind.

Strong heart, strong body

Welcome to my first time ever writing something on Tumblr.

In this universe Jean is alive because if she dies it would ruin the story that i already made up in my head lol so suck it up and have some imagination.

Here part 2

English is not my first language and oh god i am trying so hard to choose words that aren´t simple or cringey because of my poor fucking english. Any how, please enjoy.

╭──╯ . . . . .╭──╯ . . . . .╭──╯ . . . . .╭──╯ . . . . .╭──╯ . . . . .

You really did loved him. No. More than that, you were obsessed with all of him, admired him, your heart was beating only for him.

At first it was pure admiration, he was strong and even though sometimes he was too grumpy and stuborn, he cared, he cared for Rouge, Strom, Charles even Scott (he probably will never admit it) and he cared the most for Jean. Oh boy how much he cared for her, the first time he saw her was like love at first sight for him, he didn´t give a shit that she was with Eric, he didn´t care about trying to flirt with her in front of her boyfriend, he was so submerged in all of Jean´s existance.

But as some time went by, you and Logan started getting along, at first you were only teammates, working together at training your students, but you grew fond of each other, spending time together alone, having really private conversations and emotional talks every night.

Damn he sometimes would even put his arm around you, kiss the top of your head and even gave you compliments, ( they were kind of suggestive too your liking but a compliment at the end of the day) he was just so touchy with you, you wanted to just melt in his hands and live as a melted being so he could take care of you.

¨Aye¨ his voice made you react, you were out in the balcony watching the sky, it was already kind of late and windy but it felt so fresh that you stayed maybe too long out.

¨You scared me¨ he walked next to you, he had the grey hoodie he took the first time he met the Professor. ¨Sorry kid¨ He still referring to you as kid, yeah you were younger than him but you were a grown woman and a teacher, so that nickname gives you a weird feeling since you were a bit too old to be called kid. ¨Just because you are more tha a hundred yeard older than me doesn´t mean im still a kid¨ He chuckled a bit ¨Well, can´t help it, i have a right to call everyone kid¨ You raised one eyebrow ¨Even the Professor?¨ He paused for like two seconds and look at the sky ¨Maybe not him¨

You stared at his profile, the wind hitting his hair and he just looked so ugh so beautiful and hot, he had his hoodie a little bit unzipped so you could see a bit of his chest. His musuclar chest.

¨You are going to drill a hole if you stare that intense¨You swear you were discreet enough, you felt a little embarrassed but there was no point in denying it. ¨You look like a whore, can´t help it¨

He raised his eyebrow and contained a smile ¨Look who is talking¨ you placed your hand in your heart faking an offended tone ¨Excuse you? i dress properly in every situation while most of the time you have your chest naked for everyone to see¨ He stared at you ¨I only see you looking¨

You were looking at each other eyes, too much for your liking and you start to feel your face hot, was he always this close? you felt this he was standing really close to you, too close to your embarrassed and stupid in love face.

¨I guess i just don´t know how to hide it¨ You were talking about the looks you give him, but you know it also meant you could´t hide your feelings very well.

He wrapped his arm around your shoulder and pulled you close to him to his side. You rested your head on his shoulder, enjoying the breeze on your face and his hand caressing your arm.

Oh god his hands, big and strong, masculine and long. His hand caressed your shoulder and then travel to your arm, the tip of his fingers made you had goosebumps, you breathe staring to change a bit in rhythm. His finger travel to the side of your neck to caress it. You felt your heart about to explore, this felt to erotic and personal, it was kinda funny ( or pathetic) how just the touch of his fingers could make you feel.

His placed his hand in your chin to make you look at him but before he could you moved your head to avoid it. Having him touch you is one thing but looking at him was different, you didn´t want him to see your ready-to-explode face, what if he notices? If he founds out how you actually think about him?

Getting rejected was NOT going to happen, you preferred a bullet, one in your heart and another one through your brain.

¨Look at me¨ No.

You didn´t know what to do, what to say. Fuck! your face was still burning up and your stomcah felt like throwing up a million of dead butterflies.

You decided to look at him, if he questions something about your face or your actions you would just lie or throw yourself through the balcony in hopes to die.

Your eyes met and you felt you whole body, even your hands and legs burning up, he was so close to your face, his eyes so intensely watching you, looking at your lips and eyes.

¨Do you hate this¨ You didn´t exactly understand what he meant ¨Hate what?¨ His hand travel to you lower back to pull you closer to him, both chest pressed to each other ¨This¨

You were 100% going to throw up any second in that man´s beautiful face.

¨No, not at all¨

His other hand cup your cheek and you let yourself enjoy his touch, his hands were big and strong, you could feel it.

His thumb touching your lower lip, guiding you to open your mouth a litte bit. He got closer, just milimiters from your face, he stuck out his tongue to lick your lower lip. Fuck.

¨You know that if you want me to stop, just say it and i will¨ You nodded but that was never going to happen.

You cupped your hands to his face and pulled him closes to finally kiss. He pressed you closer to him, his hands on your back with a strong hold on you so you can´t separate from him. So you don´t go away.

You could feel how desperate the kiss was, his tongue licking your lips and then entering your mouth again and again. You were getting so weak, so consumed by lust, your brain was off, not a single thought, just the feeling of Logan´s hands on your waist, your neck, on your ass, breast, back, he was feeling all of you. His vocie would grunt from time to time, his deep voice just giving you hints showing how much he was enjoying having you. Feeling you.

How much time has passed? For how long have you been kissing? 5 minutes? 10? Just pure kissing and touching each other frantically was enough to make all your sensitive spots hurt, palpitate for some kind of relief. For him.

Finally your brain turned on, where you going to have sex? Was this going to escalate more? Would he like it?

You started getting nervous, scared by the idea that what would happen if he doesn´t like it, if he stops kisssing you and to each their own just going to your respective rooms.

What if this was the last time this was going to happen? He maybe just wanted some relief. Oh god, maybe just because he couldn´t have Jean he went for someone who would give in.

Logan pulled away, a tiny string of saliva connected both of your mouths for a second.

¨Let´s go¨

Fuck it. You didn´t care if he was using you, either if it was because he just needed some kind of relief or because Jean wasn´t available, you really desired this, you needed this and you would have it, it this was the last time you could have him then you would make a hell of a time out of this.

It was dark and already late, so both of you stayed silently walking to his room holding hands to prevent any students waking up.

Edit: i am still editing some grammar mistakes lol

[nadvs]

even from afar was heartbreakingly BEAUTIFUL !!!! do you think that she would ever like seek comfort from again? like she’s clearly going through so much alone and, i definitely can see how much love Rafe honestly has for her, do you think he would be there for even if it meant no reconciliation — but plot twist 😛— it makes reader see a side to him she didn’t really see before? like maybe she can tell he was being honest?

also is there any way to forget the things that were said in that conversation ? i know rafe never said it directly, so I feel like it’s not that badddd ugh sorry im such a happy ending type of person

thank you, angel!! 🥹 utc because my response got long hehe. i’m so with you on being a happy ending type of person!!

based on this blurb!

he’d keep checking in on her and continuing to financially support her, doing whatever he can so she can live comfortably and focus on school without having to take on any work. she’d have a hard time with it at first, but he tells her over and over that he just wants to help. eventually, she can believe that he’s doing it without expecting anything from her.

throughout their entire relationship, she saw the end in sight, sure he was only in it for sex and sure he’d leave once he got tired of her. below the surface she always had a bit of an inferiority complex, so painfully aware of the divide between his life and hers, and the nature of their relationship just solidified for her that he saw her as somebody to have his fun with. that’s why hearing that he bragged about how submissive she was to him and hearing that he laughed when his friend called her a slut hurt her so deeply (even though he later beat his friend up for saying it). in her eyes, it proved to her that she was always just a toy to him.

but he never saw her like that. she was never below him. in fact, he thinks she’s a better person than he is and he wants to prove to her and himself that he’s worth enough to be with her. he’d never been in love before, never connected sex to emotions, but even when the affection is gone, he still would do anything to make her happy. even if it means never trying anything romantic with her ever again and only being there for her financially.

i can see her seeking comfort from him again in a moment of distress. she struggles on her own to make ends meet so his money helps, but i can see her needing him when something goes wrong, like her apartment gets broken into and she loses her sense of safety.

she calls him in tears because at this point she knows he’d do anything to help her. he comes to get her and he books a hotel for her and offers to help her find a new place to live in a better part of town. that’s when she’d see it, the light in his eyes, how pure and honest and good his love is for her.

it’d catch him off guard when she asks him to stay the night in the hotel room. she has to initiate everything because he’s terrified of making her feel uncomfortable, of her kicking him out. and they do nothing but cuddle. he doesn’t try to make a single move on her, not once.

slowly, as they lie together in the dark, she bares her soul and explains why what he said and did cut her so deeply and why he couldn’t, as a man, and a rich one at that, possibly understand feeling so dehumanized. he tries not to cry, but he does when he hears her voice crack as she tells him how humiliating their falling out was to her.

he tells her that he’s sorry that he can’t understand it, not entirely, but if given the chance, he’d make her feel like she deserves the world because she does, that he’d never let her feel like she’s below him or anybody, because she isn’t. to him, she’s better than him. she always was.

at one point, she asks him how she could possibly forget what he said about her. the question gives him a shred of hope that maybe there’s a future between them.

and he’s at a loss, saying if she can’t forget it, he accepts that, but that idiotic conversation with his friends was far from the truth. he’s the one who’d do anything for her. she owns him completely, not the other way around.

she’s afraid of letting him in, of her heart being broken by him again. so she just lets him hold her that night, feeling his heartbeat against her back, imagining what being with him for real would be like.

the next morning, she wakes up to him coming into the hotel room with breakfast he picked up from her favorite spot. it’s jarring, watching him set a table for her at the desk, when all she did was serve him, at work and in bed, for so long.

she asks him if that’s the first time he’s set a table in his life, a hint of humor in her voice, and seeing the beautiful smile he hasn’t seen on her face in ages makes his stomach flip.

he sits at the end of the bed, asking if there’s anything else she wants. if he should go. she tells him to stay. the weight and meaning behind her words isn’t lost on him.

“you’re serious?” he whispers, his eyes softening.

“i’m serious,” she says. and finally, he feels like his heart is whole again.

okay okay im finally finished with both eps and here's my genuine opinion

the cast is 10/10, every single one of these kids knows exactly what they're doing and WHO they are, i can't imagine anyone playing each character better than them

the slight change in Sally and gabe's dynamic gave me a bit of whiplash at first, but the second time watching it, i kinda really dig it better than the books

the way they're portraying percy's feelings of inadequacy and the whole "i know I'm broken, i don't need you to make up stories for me"? fucking devastating, but it fits so fucking well (i can't remember if this is shown as deeply as it's shown here)

sally jackson is the most badass mfer and i fucking love her she is the godly parent fuck poseidon

it's been said before but sally calling percy perseus when she wants him to listen >>>

LOVED how they gave us the impression of percy having riptide while facing the minotaur, only for them to take it away (not really but percy didn't know that) and having percy face the minotaur book style rather than movie style

ANNABETH SAYING PERCY MUST BE THE ONE I SCREAMED

i am fucking loving the way they're doing percy's rage, like maybe it's bc i don't remember it as clearly in the books, but it's so raw, and walker does an amazing job portraying it, but the whole part where he offers food (a thing meant to be for gods) to SALLY, king behavior fr, and that monolog about making his father see them?? actual goosebumps

leah does such an amazing job portraying annabeth's indifference and apparent arrogance, i can't explain how much i love her, like she does it so subtly, it's just little gestures, but she IS annabeth chase (this felt especially cooler after seeing her in interviews, where she's actually really shy irl)

im not going to lie here, and like im sure it was done on purpose anyway, but i am feeling it kinda rushed, and I get it really! they won't waste time in the many chapters spent during camp introducing the world to us, when they've got few episodes, and the whole quest to showcase instead, but like, i would have loved to see percy training with luke (and besting him) and annabeth showing percy around camp (second time we've missed that) and idk just some fun little details, but like i said, i understand why they HAD to rush the intro, so I'm not upset about it or disappointed, just smth to notice

having said that, i really did love the bit of luke guiding percy through several activities trying to figure out his "calling", the callback to percy's horrible archery skills is 10/10

annabeth's yankees cap is fr a yankees cap and im crying

i nearly forgot, but im loving the nightmare sequences, i love how they're keeping the "voice" so faceless and shapeless, but just a light in the darkness of a nightmare, and really it's a great figure, bc a light in a nightmare is usually a good thing, it's the thing you run towards, and it's usually smth that helps you, but here, the light in the darkness is anything but good (quite literally) and he literally taunts percy, and fuels his fear and bitterness, and ugh I love it

the whole capture the flag sequence is 10/10 as well, i can't explain how much this healed me, just like annabeth leaving percy to be bored to death on his own, when she was right there, the transition between luke's "percy's got this" and percy doing the fucking floss dance? cinematic masterpiece, and like the fight sequence was really well done and crafted much much better than many others that rely on slow mo or weird angles, like the fight with clarisse and her spear was gold

dior's scream as percy breaks clarisse's spear alone deserves an emmy

leah portrays annabeth so effortlessly and naturally, I've said it before but i love her

i got like 10 seconds of annabeth interacting with percy and i can already see them together forever ahdjdj

overall 10/10 will rewatch again and again and again bc I'm in fucking love even if it does feel a bit rushed at times and there was the same lack of the hellhound as the movie

A little bit of Jealousy [Kim Hongjoong x reader]

A/n: should I make a smut pt 2 of this??

Warnings: jealous reader, not proofread <3

Copying or translating my writing is not allowed. If you see my work on another site it is stolen. Reblogs are appreciated and encouraged.

Dating someone as famous as Kim Hongjoong had its obstacles. Nothing that the two of you couldn't handle, of course. But one thing you were never prepared for was following him on tour. You’ve been dating Hongjoong for almost five years, you had become amazing friends with all of the members in that time. Even though you had been together for so long, you'd never had thought about following him around the world on tour.

But here you were; mask and hat on hiding your identity, pretending to be staff (Don’t question it???) You made sure to keep your distance from Hongjoong, staying a few paces away from the commotion.

You kept a careful eye on your beautiful boyfriend. He's been on work-mode all day, you couldn't wait to have boyfriend-mode Hongjoong back. You watched as he signed things and took selfies. You loved watching his fan interactions, but seeing them in real life felt different. You had no problem watching tons of fans call your man handsome online, but in real life...

Jealousy slowly seeped into every fiber of your being. You knew it was ridiculous to be feeling this way but you honestly couldn’t help it. You decided to just bite your tongue and try to keep cool.

•

The two of you finally were alone in the blacked out van. Sitting basically on top of him, your nerves finally began to settle.

"Are you hungry?" You look over at Hongjoong.

He hums gently, "a little." He looks up to his manager that driving the car to the hotel. “When our manager goes to sleep wanna sneak out and get some food?” He whispers in your ear. His warm breath making your skin break out in goosebumps.

"Okay but i we get caught, im blaming you.”

Hongjoong laughs gently and tightens his grip on you.

•

The two of you slip into a private booth at a restaraunt nearly your hotel.

"Oh my god! Is this a date?" You joke, leaning into him.

"Of course, why wouldn't it be! " He reaches across the table to hold your hand.

"We haven't beenon a date like this in so long!" You cheer, tightening your grip on Hang joongs hand.

“I know, this is nice... I’ve missed you.” His voice a sincere tone.

Oh how this night was perfect...

That was until your waitress scampered up to your table. The sentual sway of her hips and the swing of her ponytail was enough to have you on edge. You had to watch other people flirt with your man all day, and now you have a waitress to worry about.

The girl batted her eyelashes seductively as she introduced herself to only your boyfriend. Unluckily for you, your lovely Hongjoong was ever the gentleman. That meant he already knew your order. You knew that he wasn't flirting with her. He just happened to be oozing with charm and charisma. The waitress was eating it up regardless and by the time she walked away steam was blowing out of your ears.

“What's wrong my love?"

You clench your jaw, "nothing, why?"

"Cmon, baby, don't be like that."

You sigh, "she was flirting with you." you mumble, rage quickly being replaced by embarrassment.

You watch Hongjoongs face turn from worry to something more mischievous, “you’re jealous?”

“What! Ugh! No-” You defend, "I'm just pointing it out, that's all...”

Your boyfriend doesn’t believe your half assed lies. Not does he have time to calm your worries, because the waitress was back with your drinks, great. You and Hongjoong usualy ordered cokes with your food, simple. But unlike your soda Hongjoong’s drink had a tiny decoration on top of it. You scoff, staring daggers at the bold waitress. You continue to star as she walks away.

"Are you kidding mie right now??” You shift your gure to meet Hongjoong’s”

He just shrugs, "maybe she's just a fan!”

"Just a fan my ass. She hasn't even looked in my direction the whole time we've been here!" You complain to your boyfriend. "She's totally into you. WOW that little-"

“Baby! Please,” he stops your outburst. “I’m here for you. Only you, no random waitress is going to change that’s.”

There’s not a single part of you that thought Hongjoong was unfaithful. But you still didn’t like watching randoms flirt with what was yours. You sigh, deciding not to let something so small ruin your night with your boyfriend.

By the time the two of you got back into your hotel room there was only one thing un your minds.

Bed time.

"What time do we have to wake up tomorrow, Joong? " You ask, taking out your pjs from your suitcase.

"Not until later," he pauses, "Why?"

You shrug," I was just gonna hop in the shower real quick." Hongjoong quirks up, "wanna join me?”

“Please tell me that you didn’t text him,” My coworker asks with an edge of dread and disgust in her voice. For the last two hours of our shift, Lilly has been on me about the guy who left me his number yesterday.

It had been a slow day with only regulars really coming in so a decent looking young guy walking in felt like Christmas. Lils was on it and immediately put on her best flirt, fluttering her big eyes and matching lashes at him when he ordered. I wanted to laugh at the scene but that died when he flashed a smile my way and handed me his number. It was quickly followed by some passing comment about how he hates it when girls throw themselves at him. I had half a mind to throw his coffee on him but I knew my boss would have my head. I settled for plastering a fake smile on my face and saying “Vai pro caralho.” Of course the ignorant asshole thought I was being nice and winked at me. It took all of my strength to not shutter in disgust.

“You should know me better than that,” I throw back at her, “from that 2 minute interaction alone, I can already tell that he would talk about himself the entire date before saying something borderline foul like how Latinas girls are his favorite and he can’t stand white girls .”

Lils snorts as she takes a sip of her coffee, nearly choking and sending the hot liquid flying over the freshly cleaned counter. I arch a dark brow at her which makes her laugh even harder.

“What? Am I wrong? You can’t tell me that he wouldn’t have pulled out that high school Spanish to impress me.”

“No, no,” she stutters, wiping the coffee up, “it just caught me off guard is all. Wait, didn’t you say something to him in Spanish before he left? What did you say?”

I narrow my eyes at her, “Vai pro caralho? Babes you should know better.”

She looks at me in horror, “oh my god it was Portuguese, wasn’t it?”

I nod as she profusely apologizes, “I am so sorry, Y/N. Oh my god I’m not better than that asshat. Ugh, what does that mean though?”

The front door opens before I have the chance to speak and the little bells above alerts us to the one regular that never fails to put a smile on my face. Sam had been coming in since before I started working at Brewed Awakenings but after that first interaction, he came pretty much daily. He even got Sarah his sister to start coming in and within a matter of a few weeks, I was invited over for Sunday dinner.

“It means Go fuck yourself,” I tell Lils as I round the counter with a bright smile and wide arms. Sam matches me and wraps me into a tight hug.

“Good morn, Anjo. How are you?” He asks as he squeezes me into this chest.

I pull back and give him my best angry mãe look we I demand to know where he’s been for the last few weeks.

He holds his hands up in defense as he says, “put those eyes away, Anjo. Im sorry okay? I was on official business and I didn’t have time to swing by to let you know but I’m back.”

I don’t let up my expression at first and lecture him some more, “You better be. You were gone for like…”

I pause for dramatic effect to pretend to count the time while walking back around the counter, “6 weeks. I was about to send out a search and rescue team to find you. Ridiculous.”

Sam chuckles while shaking his head at me. He steps to the side to reveal a man that’s been standing behind him and one that I hadn’t noticed before.

A damn attractive man.

Albeit a bit judgmental given the looks he’s throwing at the both of us.

“I wasn’t gone that long,” Sam tries but stops when I shot him another mãe look. He quickly changes the subject, clapping his hand on his companion’s shoulder and introducing him, “well this is Bucky. He’s the reason I was gone so if you’re going to be mad at anyone, be mad at him.”

Bucky.

He looks familiar but I can’t quite figure out why. The massive resting bitch face forced me I stop the search before offering him a bright smile as I repeat his name.

This seems to…irritate him? I honestly can’t tell with the stone wall of moodiness and brooding that lives on his drop dead gorgeous face.

“Well welcome in Bucky, I’m Lilly but everyone calls me Lils and this is y/n,” Lils jumps in with an equally wide smile. His dark eyes flicker between us but hover half a second longer on me. He utters a low “thank you” and looks up to the menu.

Sam rolls his eyes at his short answer but his ever present smile never fades as he orders his usual, a large hot mocha with soy milk. I’ve tried to get him to switch to coconut or even hemp milk but he refuses. He always gives me the whole speech about how “soy is the closest to real milk and if I’m going to drink alternative milk, it has to be close to the real thing.”

“And for you?” I turn my attention to Bucky while Lils starts on Sam’s order. He looks me with slightly wide eyes, a little startled it seems that I’m still talking to and looking at him.

He freezes for a moment, “uh…um a large house coffee.”

“Of course,” Lils jumps in once again and slides a cup across the counter to him. The loud volume of her voice causes him to flinch and Sam instinctively steps in front of him. He takes the cup without another word and fills it while Sam pays and throws a shamelessly flirty smile to Lils. She mocks faintly in a fit of giggles and winks at him.

Sam turns his attention to him and subtlety jerks his chin towards the door, wordlessly asking me if I’ll walk them out. Lils caught it too and rolls her eyes before shooing us out the door.

“She means no harm. She’s just…cheery,” I tell Bucky when the door closes behind us and we step onto the side walk, “I can tell her to tone it back for when you come in next.”

Sam chuckles under his breath and tries to hide a smile behind his cup but fails miserably. Bucky shots him another one of those bored looks and rolls his beautiful eyes at him.

“You don’t have to do that,” he finally says to me and actually makes eye contact with me, “Y/N.”

I offer him another wide smile and stick my hand for him to shake. He glances down at my watch and rings before taking my hand.

“It’s nice to meet you, Bucky. Don’t let Sam fill your head with too many tales and I hope to see you soon.”

The man in question basically squawks in protests as I hug him goodbye and disappear back into the coffee shop.

About an hour after I get home, I get a text from Sam saying something along the lines of “Robo cop liked you and asked for your number.”

Moments later a D.C. number sends me a text and I quickly save it under “Bucky (aka Robo Cop according to Sam)”

That’s when it clicks who he is; Bucky Barnes, the former Winter Solider and the most attractive man I’ve ever met.

i am scared. fearful. full of fear. nothing but fear lives within me. let's get it.

When they both got into UConn, and Amber told Azzi she was going to go with her, Azzi thought it was a sign—proof that they were meant to keep building their lives together.

ho. let's maybe give long distance a try!

“It’s just basketball. A literal game. You’re already starting anyway, just come help me study.”

That’s when Paige came into the picture.

YUP. IK MY GIRLS FIND EACH OTHER IN EVERY UNIVERSE

She noticed things, little things, like how Azzi’s shooting percentages dipped slightly during stressful weeks or how her shoulders would slump after a particularly bad day.

wtf im gonna cry

Paige would stay behind, helping Azzi find her rhythm again when her mechanics felt off.

im crying she always falls first

Paige: Mush isn’t good. Should I start bringing you flashcards?

oh my god she's so incredibly down bad

Freshie: Do you ever feel like you’re failing at everything outside of basketball? Paige: Lol every day.

oh.

Whenever Paige flirted it was always subtle, just enough to make Azzi’s heart pick up, but not so much that she couldn’t dismiss them as harmless jokes.

paige and these damn virtual rizz hands

Paige opened the door in sweats and a hoodie, her hair still wet from the shower she just took.

licked my screen

Paige didn’t press much. Just handed Azzi a bottle of water and laid beside her, their shoulders almost touching.

shut the fuck up ill cry

heavy with something Azzi couldn’t name but felt deep in her chest as she laid there with Paige.

break up with you girlfriend🎤

There was a lightness to being with Paige that Azzi hadn’t felt in a long time. Amber always seemed to expect something from her—more time, more effort, more of herself. But Paige just… let her be.

and ur telling me this is gonna turn into angst? shut up ill sob

Paige lay awake, staring at the ceiling and grappling with the truth: she was in love with Azzi.

it's okay ur DEFINITELY not alone in that regard

But she was still with Amber.

fuck that bitch

The First Slip Up

oh?

“You should’ve brought a jacket.”

ur wearing TWO not one but TWO sweaters

Paige didn’t argue. She just pulled off her jacket—a soft, worn-in zip up that smelled like her soap and shampoo—and handed it to Azzi.

didn't even give it a second thought. amber watch and learn

The hug was casual enough on the surface—just a friend warming up another friend—but it felt like more. Paige’s hands rubbed slow circles on Azzi’s back and Azzi felt herself relax against her

when I tell you I've been in this EXACT situation TWO SEPARATE times.

You’re clingy when you’re drunk.”

but it's azzi fudd?

"Stay,” Paige said, glancing at her. The word wasn’t a command, but it held weight, a quiet reassurance that Paige didn’t want her to go anywhere.

tears.

“Of course I noticed

stfu im sobbing

Paige arched a brow, a playful smile tugging at her lips. “Me? Sweet? Who would’ve guessed.”

UGH SHE'S THE MOST PERFECT HUMAN

“You look good in my jacket,” Paige said, the compliment coming out smoothly.

im scared. I feel like only bad things are coming. ts cute tho

the way Paige was looking at her, like she was undressing her with her eyes. “You’re bold tonight,”

Paige please the girl is taken

you’re not going to let me cheat tonight,” Azzi murmured, a little unsure why the words slipped out.

I don't think anyone was thinking that...

This was probably when Azzi should’ve ended things with Amber.

she doesn't break up with her after THAT?

“What the hell was that?” Amber’s voice was low but heated, frustration clear in every word.

someone better than you

The Second Slip Up

I feel like Azzi's gotta be the one initiating cuz no way p would let her cheat or at least be the one to start it

Her usually bright blue eyes were darker than usual, her gaze intense as she sipped her drink, not blinking, as if she were daring Azzi to look away first. And for a moment, Azzi forgot how to breathe.

please break up with the crystal girl I beg

er body grinding against Paige's as she ran her acrylics slowly down Paige's jaw, tracing the curve of her face and lips.

imagine being that girl and watching fine shyt have a different fine shyt than u

"Who are you looking at like that?"

who do u think

“Call me when you’re done being so fucking self-centered,”

call me when ur a good person

Azzi’s eyes flicked to Paige’s lips, and Paige caught the movement, making her instinctually lick them.

I don't condone cheating but... KISS!

Without warning, Azzi crossed the line between hovering and touching.

oh god

“Meet me in the bathroom.”

oh god

The silence was broken when Azzi took two quick steps forward, closing the distance between them in an instant. Without warning, her hands gripped the front of Paige’s shirt, pushing her back until Paige’s shoulders hit the cool wall with a thud.

im scared. but like yay!

The thought of Paige leaving marks on her skin—of something so visible, so undeniably real—triggered a sudden flicker of realization.

ding ding ding! correct! you are in fact cheating!

Paige stilled immediately, her hands falling away from Azzi’s hips, her hazy eyes snapping up to meet Azzi’s.

immediately stopped. perfect.

“We can’t,” Azzi said softly

ur the one who started it...

“Paige! Oh my god, Fuck Paige.” A girl’s voice, excited and a little too loud for the quiet of the dorms.

lmao sorry what.

Azzi could feel a wave of nausea rise in her throat. Her pulse quickened, and her breath caught in her chest.

me too girl. literally gagged.

The feeling of walking into Paige’s room and finding that girl with her—that girl whose name she didn’t even know but who had already made Azzi feel small—was too much.

just think of the positives! at least you know she's good in bed!

Before she had a chance to second-guess it, she stood from her spot and pulled Azzi gently but firmly onto her lap on the couch, wrapping her arms around her waist.

oh?

“Just relax,” Paige whispered

suddenly im relaxed

Paige’s voice was soft against Azzi’s ear as she whispered, "You know you're much prettier than whoever she's talking to."

ill cry

Paige’s voice dipped lower. “I would never do you like that.”

ill sob

Azzi stayed still for a moment, leaning comfortably against Paige’s chest, but her words came out without hesitation. “You did.”

oh.

"I was drunk," Paige said quietly, though her tone betrayed a hint of guilt.

ok girl

Paige’s lips brushed against Azzi’s ear as she spoke, lowering her voice even more, making Azzi shiver. “Your name slipped out.”

LMAO PAIGE PLEASE

Paige, however, seemed to enjoy the spectacle once she noticed. Her smirk widening as she notices Amber staring at them.

this hoe messy ASF

"You want me to let go?"

no

Paige kissed Azzi’s neck a few more times, each press of her lips making Azzi’s pulse quicken.

in front of miss crystal ho?! love that for pazzi honestly

Amber yanked Azzi off of Paige, the movement more forceful than necessary.

oh ok domestic violence i see!

“Don’t fucking touch her like that,” Paige’s voice was low but still controlled enough.

YOU FUCKING TELL HER

“I can touch her however the fuck I want to,”

you definitely cannot. that's illegal I fear!

Evina appeared out of nowhere, throwing her arm around Paige’s shoulders casually..

thank you evina. always saving these mofos

“I’m just gonna stay with Paige tonight.”

YES. YES.

“Almost three years of my life down the fucking drain.”

and down the drain it will stay!

After that, it was like the universe conspired to give Azzi small, quiet signs the rest of the night, reassuring her that she’d made the right decision.

adorable. thanks uni

Azzi didn’t know anyone else, besides sweet and gentle Paige, who would hold the girl they were in love with while she cried over her ex.

no one else is as sweet istg

The effects of a bad dream pulled her out of sleep, and she woke with a slight panic. But Paige was there.

I am crying. crying.

It’s just a dream, Az.” Her voice was a little raspy from sleep, barely above a murmur, but it anchored Azz

HUNGER GAMES REFERENCE. STFU HUNGER GAMES REFERENCE.

“you tend to have nightmares when you’ve had a lot of sugar that day.

the way az probably didn't even notice that

“What do you need? I can make you some tea or something.”

oh my god she's an angel sent from heaven

guided Paige’s hand lower, resting over her waistband, silently telling her what she wanted.

and away I go

("How do you like it, pretty girl?" .... "I don’t know... I haven’t done a lot," moment for this tho bc this managed to be so sweet and careful and perfect I love them)

and im back

“Your heart’s beating fast.” Paige let out a soft chuckle, the vibrations against Azzi’s cheek. “Of course it is,”

ARGH THEY'RE ADORABLE

Paige chuckled again, her tone more playful this time. “Yeah… I don’t know what the hell you’re going to do when I start doing everything else.”

IM DYING LAUGHING LMAO

And for once, she didn’t feel the need to push it away as she kissed Paige’s neck softly before drifting in her arms.

adorable. perfect.

thought I was getting really bad angst so I was very scared at the beginning but its safe to say this was adorable and I loved it

author you impress me every time.

love you!

-🍉

wtf im gonna cry

licked my screen

hmmm 🤨

when I tell you l've been in this EXACT situation TWO SEPARATE times.

I don't condone cheating but... KISS!

HUNGER GAMES REFERENCE. STFU

omgg i am so sorry 😭 i didn’t even realize until you pointed it out

seee it wasn’t that bad!! i really didn’t know how to write the angst everybody wanted without making them terrible people lmao

[pines4thetwin]

Aaaahhhhh as someone who has had soul eater brainrot since childhood and is not recently getting into stancest- i need ur recent post injected straight into my bloodstream!!! Ugh if i may ramble a bit in ur inbox- the last bit being twin weapons and the betrayal that ford never transformed for him is so Tasty but also the angst of possible drifter stan era transforming for strangers for ~unsavory~ jobs meisters would rather not use their actual weapon for to make quick cash and stan hating every moment someone else's hands use him. But he's a charmer! A conman! He can resonate lightly with just about anyone but its always shallow and it never feels right for him always matching someone else's wavelength AND Then finding ford with Another weapon?? that he made a death scythe?? Ooohhh the angst

feel free to ramble in my inbox whenever

ahhh dont make me sobbbb. this one gets just a bit angsty

just gonna take this and say: liz and patty but if liz was alone (cause i think she definitely relied on patty as her rock and her light and stan would be a bit more like her imo) and didnt have patty to switch of with between wielding each other.

the ides of him selling himself as a weapon for hire basically to help with shitty and unsavory jobs??? *sobs on the floor* like yeah hes used to bending to the will of others so matching someone elses wavelength, even if its just enough to get the job done??? But he can do it even if he hates every second of it. i just know that left a mark on his soul!!!

i feel like even after he goes back to being partnered with Ford that theres always that moment after transforming, where his soul would recoil from the feeling of anothers just from those years of being a drifter. like he'd have to remind himself whose hands he's in because he used to let himself pass through so many (im sorryyyy) and itd take awhile for him to even get comfortable speaking to ford in his weapon form because with anyone else he would always just stay silent ahhhhhhh

also i think they'd have trouble with resonating. Ford would try to have them on the wavelenth that they had before but stan has changed so much since then (they both have) and that with the interference of blood (infected from fidds) i just think itd be a tough thing for them to settle back into.

i also think itd be cool to imagine them overcome with insanity (like that one scene with maka and crona fighting.)

i think maybe when they first gained the ability to transform fully that maybe stan and ford would switch off but at some point (with stans need to be useful and his devotion to ford) things change and stans always the one transforming. that isnt to say ford isnt devoted to stan also but thats a whole other conversation.

stan definitely lays up at night thinking about the fact that ford made someone other then him into a death scyth and once they reconcile he definitely throws that around when they argue (playfully >.<)

ooh imagine the first time stan feels ford matching his wavelength and letting stan lead instead of stan having to adjust himself to match ford like usual. i just know that would be one of the best feelings for him.

am i going off topic? i just have so many thoughts about this au!!!!

thanks for the askkk

(i meant to post this yesterday idk how i forgot)

[br0-k3n-sch00lb01]

aubrey fanfic im writing with cedaaaaa <3 (im doing the writing, she helps with ideas and plot)

tw; Abuse, drinking, swearing.

this is an au (slightly.) the only thing that really changes is how aubrey meets Basil.

also the photobomb is mostly IMPLIED until later because this is the time where shes just meeting basil and still has a crush on Sunny. if i were writing from basil’s POV (theres gonna be a pert where i do) you’ll see his VERY obvious crush (that everyone but hero and mari fail to notice) on Aubrey, kel, AND sunny (he cant decide)

Aubrey sat on the swings. She really needed to get out of that house, away from her mom…

What a selfish woman. Drinks herself to rage. And subsequently takes that rage out on her own daughter.

Aubrey didn’t like to be alone, she much preferred to be with her friends, but she didn’t want to risk their parents telling her mom where she was…

“Aubrey?” A voice called. “Oh, it is you!! AUBREYY!!”

“Kel? Hero?” She replied.

“Yeah!! Whatcha doin’ all alone? You could have asked to hangout y’know.” Kel said, after coming to a stop in front of her.

“Ummm, I was just, not sure if you guys were free today.”

“Whaaa? Sure we’re free! It’s summer!!”

“Um.” Aubrey didn’t know what to say. That had been her only excuse.

“Don’t tell me it was your mom again? You know we won’t say anything.” Kel said, softly.

“Uh, I just thought maybe your parents would want to respect her wishes-”

“No, our parents think your mom is a dumba-”

Hero covered Kel’s mouth. “Umm, what he meant to say is our parents think your mom is, well, not a very smart or responsible parent.” He said.

“Ohh, uh, okay.” Aubrey mumbled.

“Do you want to spend the night? My parents won’t object, I’m sure.” Hero offered.

“That… would be nice… please.”

“Alright, we’ll head back to ask, then. Do you want to stop by Mari and Sunny’s to see if Mari can lend you some pajamas-”

“I have a bag.” 

“Ah. Uh, alright, then let’s go to Kel and I’s. You hungry or anything?”

“Mhm. Can you make… ummm, onigiri?”

“Of course, Aubrey. Anything you want.”

***

“Where have you been, young lady?”

Aubrey flinched at the tone of her mother’s voice. “I stayed at a friend’s.”

“Oh, fuck, whatever. Make yourself useful for once and go get some groceries.”

Her mom handed her a shopping list and fifty dollars.

“Won’t all this cost more than f-”

“You will only need fifty fucking dollars, brat, if you can’t afford something then steal it.”

Aubrey closed her mouth. Better not to argue.

“..okay, Mom. I’ll be back soon.”

She turned and headed out the door, items in hand. She wasn’t gonna steal… that’s just not right. If she couldn’t afford something she’d put it back and tell her mother they didn’t have any.

***

She was two dollars short. She was about to say she needed to put something back on the shelf, she hadn’t meant to grab it-

“I just need to, um-”

A hand tapped her shoulder.

She turned to see a boy with blonde hair. She blinked. He held out two dollars to her. “Here ya go.”

“Uhh.”

She hesitantly accepted.

“Thank you…?”

“No problem!!”

She handed the cashier the money and gathered her bags. She was going to thank the boy one more time, but he was already gone.

How odd.

***

“Ugh, finally, you’re back. Put that shit away, will you?” Aubrey’s mom said when she got home.

“...okay.” Aubrey said, quietly.

She knew tonight would end just as badly as any other night, which wasn’t exactly promising, so as soon as she finished putting away the groceries she went to her room, grabbed her overnight bag (she alway had one), and slid out the window.

Kel and Hero’s house was noisy. Not that she didn’t adore Hero’s cooking in the mornings, just, she really didn’t want to spend two nights in the same room as Kel and his snoring. 

…Sunny and Mari’s house it is, then.

***

Aubrey knocked on the front door.

Mari opened it. “Oh, Aubrey!! What a surprise!! What are you doing here so late?” She asked.

“Can I stay the night?”

“Oh… I don’t know, but why don’t you come in while I ask my dad? Sunny’s just upstairs if you want to see him.”

“Thank you, Mari.”

There were not many questions asked about why exactly she wanted to stay the night on such short notice. There wasn’t usually, anymore. 

She followed her inside, and while Mari went off to the kitchen, Aubrey went up the stairs to Sunny’s room. The door was open so she just walked in.

Sunny was lying on his back on his bed, reading the latest edition of Captain Spaceboy. She would have laughed, ordinarily, but tonight she couldn’t find it in her to do so. 

“Hi, Sunny.” She said.

Sunny glanced up. “Hi.”

“Do you… I mean, uh, what..” She couldn’t come up with any small talk.

He set his comic down and sat up, tilting his head at her.

“I’m probably staying the night.”

“Oh, cool.”

Silence.

Aubrey could just faintly hear Mari’s voice downstairs, hushed and pleading, and a single word from her father-

No. 

Aubrey’s heart sank.

Mari was coming up the staircase. Aubrey heard her come up behind her.

“Aubrey…” Mari started.

“I know. Sorry for bothering you. I’ll… go home.” Aubrey mumbled.

“It’s alright. I’m not mad. My dad wants Sunny and I to work on our duet, since the recital is… very important for our family image… we can’t screw up.”

“Yeah. Bye, Mari. Goodnight, Sunny.”

Aubrey turned and walked past Mari, hurrying down the stairs and out into the cold.

…It was raining. Great. How much better could poor Aubrey’s luck get? It’s almost like some fanfiction writer is casting misery on her. (Hint Hint, Nudge Nudge)

She sighed and walked down the sidewalk. Turned at the intersection.

As she was passing by a house with a green roof, she spotted the same boy who’d helped her at Othermart earlier, soaking wet, bringing some potted plants inside.

She tried to pay him no mind.

As she got past him, however, he called out, “Oh, hi!! It’s you again!!”

Aubrey, reluctantly, turned around.

His eyes were a blazing blue color that seemed to glow in the dark. How odd. Kinda creepy.

“Um. Hi.” She replied.

“What are you doing out in the rain so late?”

“I could ask you the same question.”

“Well, I’m just taking my plants inside. Don’t want them to get too much water- this rain doesn’t seem like it’ll let up anytime soon. Gotta be careful.”

“...right.”

They stared at each other for a second. He had an unnaturally bright smile- probably forced. He seemed shy. Aubrey was upset but she kept her expression neutral.

“Uhm. Do you… maybe… want to come inside? My grandma’s making tea.” The boy offered.

Seriously? I haven’t even spoken to you for 5 minutes and you’re asking me to come to your house?

Creep.

But… I don’t really wanna go home. It’s as good a choice as any.

“...Sure.” Aubrey replied.

“Cool!! Do you mind helping me with these last few flowers? You don’t have to, I can do it on my own-”

“No, I’ll help.”

Aubrey picked up a pot with a pretty pink-and-white flower, kinda like a sword.

“These are pretty!!” She said. “What are they called?” 

“Those are called gladiolus. Or, the swordflower. They’re resilient little plants, though they might look delicate. That’s why I like them- despite their dainty looks, they’re strong-willed and true to themselves!!” He smiled. “Uhm, sorry, I might sound a bit like a nerd. I just… really like flowers, haha..”

They went through the doorway. His house was warm and generally inviting. It was a cozy one-story, set up almost the same as Aubrey’s, though clearly different.

There was a shelf with quite a lot of other flowers on it. “Just… find somewhere here to put that, just be careful.” The boy said, setting his pot- a white tulip, Aubrey knew that at least- on the bottom shelf.

Aubrey just put the sword flower next to it.

“Can you tell me about your flowers? You’ve got so many.” She said.

“Oh, sure. You see- the ones with the pink or white bulbs hanging from the stems- kinda like candy canes- are called lilies of the valley. It's said that they're able to ward off evil spirits and help people see a brighter future… I guess they always remind me to stay positive.”

He paused. “And you know roses. Roses come in many different colors and have their own unique meanings. Pink roses symbolize admiration… orange roses symbolize passion… yellow roses symbolize friendship... and the list goes on. Roses are versatile and universally loved.” He sat criss cross applesauce spoons in the bowl on the carpet. “Though they aren’t really flowers, I have some cacti too. Cacti are very sturdy and resilient plants by nature. They don't need much care and can survive even in seemingly impossible conditions. I guess what I'm saying… is that anyone can take care of a cactus. And these…” He pointed to the white tulip he had earlier. “These are white tulips. Tulips aren't very flashy plants. They're not too big or small, not too elaborate or flamboyant. If I could put it in another way… I guess I would say that… they're comfortable. Simple, modest, and perfect.” 

Aubrey listened to his rant.

“Oh, I forgot. Those are sunflowers. They always face towards the sun. That’s how I want to be like- someone who always sees the bright side of things.” The boy added.

Aubrey nodded. “That’s so cool.”

“Dear, have you brought a friend?” An elderly woman came behind them.

His eyes lit up. “Kind of, grandma. Could she have some tea-”

“Of course!! And she’s soaking wet too, she’s going to catch a cold if she doesn’t change-”

“I, um, have some clothes in my bag, can I use the bathroom?” Aubrey cut in.

Her friend gave her a worried look.

“Oh, of course, darling.” His grandma said.

Aubrey got up and went through the doorway- if this house was laid out like hers, then the bathroom should be-

Ack. No. Her friend’s bedroom was where her house’s bathroom was.

She closed the door. Looking too long would have been an invasion of privacy. The privacy of someone she hardly knows.

The next room over was, in fact, the bathroom. 

Good. If it had been anything else I probably would shoot myself right here and now.

She closed the door behind her and hurriedly got changed into her pajamas. Since that’s the only change of clothes she’d brought.

She got out quickly and went back to the main room. The boy was sitting on the couch- the TV was off. oOf course. This was a gardener and his grandma. 

He looked up. “Oh!! There you are. Hey, I never caught a hint of your name, did I?”

Aubrey blinked. “Umm, it’s Aubrey. And you?”

“I’m Basil!! Aaaah, sorry!! How impolite of me to not introduce myself before inviting you into my home…” Basil frantically began to apologize.

“It’s fine.” Aubrey interrupted. “..We… probably won’t see each other again. This is… a one time thing.” 

I hope it is. This guy freaks me out. Who ever heard of glow in the dark eyes? Weirdo. And then inviting me, a FEMALE, into his house AT NIGHT? What kind of pervert is he?

I… appreciate the kindness, though. I guess.

Whatever.

“What do you mean?” Basil asked. He seemed almost hurt by her words, though his smile strained across his lips anyway.

“Uh… I mean… not to be rude or anything… but I already have friends.” Aubrey explained. A bit awkwardly.

Basil’s smile fell. He looked scared.

But then it was back, more unnerving than ever. 

“That’s fine!! Not like I expected you to be my friend. Hahaha! Silly me, why would I think that? I can make friends.”

This guy really freaks me out. What a creepy laugh.

“Hey… Basil. Sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings. But while I’m here, do you think I can stay the night?” Aubrey said.

“...Uh… sure. Let me ask my grandma.” Basil said, back to normal.

What is UP with this guy?

“Grandma? Can Aubrey stay the night?” Basil asked.

Basil’s grandma called back. “Hmm? Yes, dear, sure. As long as you two aren’t in the same room, we can’t have any nonsense in this house-”

“GRANDMA!!” Basil cried. His face went red. “Don’t say that!! We’ve only just met!!” 

His grandma just laughed. “Alright, alright… tea’s ready.”

Aubrey suddenly remembered she hated tea.

Oh boy. How do I explain that? Shouldn’t I have said that sooner????

“Uh, Basil? I don’t really like tea…” She said.

Basil blinked. “Uh, that’s fine. You can have hot chocolate or something, We have croissants-”

“No.”

“Why?”

“Those are French.”

“And…?”

“My dad and mom are both from Britain. I don’t like French stuff. Tradition.”

“...okay, then. Just hot chocolate, then?”

“Yes please. Thank you.”

Basil went over to his grandma and whispered in her ear, probably asking for her to make Aubrey a hot chocolate.

He went to sit at the table.

“C’mon over here, we’re not allowed to drink on the couch.” He said.

“Okay.”

Aubrey went over to the table and sat beside him.

“Sooo. I don’t think I’ve seen you around before today actually.” She said, curiously.

“Oh… yeah, I just moved here a few days ago.” Basil replied.

“Oh! Where are you from?” 

“Umm, I was born in France but we moved away very soon so I don’t know much about what it’s like there. Technically I’m from Georgia.”

“That’s pretty far away. Why’d you move?”

“Well, my parents are always switching jobs- to get higher salaries, y’know- and are constantly going on work trips, so they thought it would be better if I came to Faraway to live with my grandma and find some friends that stick. Live out the rest of my life without moving every few months or years.”

Aubrey was quiet for a moment. “Oh.”

That was a bit sad. Now she felt really bad for hurting his feelings by saying she already has friends. She had implied that she wanted nothing to do with him.

[tadpolesonalgae]

im bak!!! cbmthy#15 summoned me from hades me, reading self-inserts/reader x fics: 😊😊😊 me when the reader is just as stupid as me: unacceptable!!!!

anyway, Tabby, Tabs, Tabherine.... you better not go George R.R. Martin on me and kill off the main characters. That ending really threw me for a loop. I wonder if Rhys and Feyre will figure out the arrow was actually meant for her, or just throw her in the dungeons for attempted murder? Because that's what it looks like from the outside. Man, what a mess she's in. First, the Eris thing-- I never thought about the implications with Mor and their friendship (or whatever it was), even though I was a little annoyed at how quickly Azriel threw that in Reader's face. Like, sure, Mor seemed to somewhat care about her feelings but also not really? Not enough I suppose?

I don't see Mor not doing something she wants to do just because Reader would feel some type of way about it. Maybe it's just me. The IC's neglect still stings. That splinter is still under my nail and I hope it comes out as the story develops, but man that feels so far away.

Second-- I'm dying (haha) to see how her powers would affect the situation? I mean, obviously their surroundings were affected, but what will the blast do to Azriel?? Any crumbs of answers I can get about her powers i will be taking, tbh. I know you *just* finished writing part 15 but I literally cannot wait for the next, ugh. I don't know what it is about CBMTHY but it has me hooked (you know it). talk soon - 🥐

Hi hello!!!

‘anyway, Tabby, Tabs, Tabherine.... ‘

I honestly felt a twinge of fear in my blood when you started going through the names like you were going to somehow know my actual government name 😭

‘That ending really threw me for a loop.’

🤩🤩🤩 thank you!

‘I wonder if Rhys and Feyre will figure out the arrow was actually meant for her, or just throw her in the dungeons for attempted murder? Because that's what it looks like from the outside.’

Yeah, it would be pretty awful if there was a whole misunderstanding between them where Rhys finds the letter that Eris and reader had been using and then reader gets thrown in the dungeons and Feyre’s too distraught to do anything and Az can’t tell them it’s not true because he’s passed out and recovering from a near-death experience or actually dead? Wouldn’t that be awful? 😬

‘First, the Eris thing-- I never thought about the implications with Mor and their friendship (or whatever it was), even though I was a little annoyed at how quickly Azriel threw that in Reader's face. Like, sure, Mor seemed to somewhat care about her feelings but also not really? Not enough I suppose?’

I feel like the whole Eris thing is going to cause some ripples in reader’s relationships? Either things could blow up quite suddenly or she’ll be extremely isolated from everyone being disappointed with her which won’t improve her state of mind either 🤭

I think it was more along the lines of getting reader to acknowledge what she’s done because to be honest while she needed an out and a place to go, it will still have consequences on the people around her, and reader had enjoyed her time with Mor so knowing that’s she might have ruined that would be a good(?) way for her to understand her actions? Or they could just leave her alone and get over their centuries-old animosity I suppose🤷

‘The IC's neglect still stings. That splinter is still under my nail and I hope it comes out as the story develops, but man that feels so far away.’

I know what you mean? I started to write chapter 16 and it automatically went bad I think because of being so accustomed to writing reader having a bad time? I had to delete a couple of paragraphs multiple times because it felt weird to not write something that would cause a fallout of some kind, so it’s genuinely going to be an effort to get things back on track and brighten the story line 😭 it’ll probably take a while, but reader’s story will get better

‘I mean, obviously their surroundings were affected, but what will the blast do to Azriel??’

👀

‘I know you *just* finished writing part 15 but I literally cannot wait for the next, ugh.’

Hey! I’m hoping to have it done soon!! Maybe! Hopefully! I think it’s going okay at the moment!! 🧡💛

‘I don't know what it is about CBMTHY but it has me hooked (you know it).’

Ahhhh I’m so happy you’re still enjoying it!! I’ve definitely said this before, but after the gap between chapter 14 and chapter 15 I’m so relieved you’re still keeping up with and enjoying it 😭🫂🧡💛 thank you so much, it means so much to me ☹️🫂
