“Look up for me?” Steve looked up, following the medic’s finger. “Do you remember what you ate for breakfast?”
Looking back down, he half nodded. “Uhhh… a burrito, two bowls of cereal, an orange and a protein shake?
The medic’s eyebrows shot up. “Oh. Okay. Well, you don’t seem to have a concussion. Take this paper back to the locker room.”
They both stood, Steve a bit unsteadily but he’d felt worse after a hard workout. It was probably nothing.
He got to the door and peered down the grey hallway where both ways looked identical. Someone had walked him here, he hadn’t paid any attention and he didn’t know where the locker room was.
“Um, how do I…?”
The medic was already typing fast into his computer and barely looked up.
“Go left, two hallways down make a right, fourth door on the right,” he rattled off. Steve blinked and took a few steps into the hall. “Your other left.”
Steve huffed and turned, trying to remember his instructions. After he’d turned down another very similar hallway, he knew he was lost.
“Make a right, he said... then fourth door…” he mumbled to himself. He wished there had been anyone to ask.
More confidently than he should’ve been, he threw open the door to his right and walked in.
In front of him, a man with long dark hair was naked, pulling his tight leather pants from a leg.
“Oh! Shit, I’m sorry!”
He continued to stand in the doorway, staring. He couldn't make himself move. The man didn’t seem bothered, looking him up and down and smirking at him.
“Well hi there, pretty. Could you close the door? Don’t need anyone else seeing the goods.”
Shocked, he complied and pushed the door shut behind him. “S-sorry, I’m- I think I’m just lost.” He rubbed at his face, shaking his head. This had not been his day.
“Well, I don’t remember ordering a basketball player, but I think you found exactly where you’re supposed to be.”
He huffed a laugh, shaking his head. “Yeah, this looks like the locker room. Sorry, I’ll just get out of your hair,” he averted his eyes when he realized they’d been tracking downward, following the man’s tattoos. He turned back towards the door but the man was suddenly close to him, a hand on his arm.
“Now now, we both know that’s not where you want to go.”
The man snatched the paper out of his hand. Steve had already forgotten about it.
“You got knocked down?” The man peered at him suspiciously, looking him up and down once more.
Steve knew he was big, tall and broad shouldered, and he bristled. “I got fouled, the guy tripped me and I hit my head.” He tried to take the paper back but the man evaded him, moving to the side. Still naked, reading his paper.
He frowned, trying to follow him as he paced quickly as he looked over his paper. The man was about the same height as Steve, and lightly muscled like he got his muscles from something other than hours in a gym.
Eddie looked over at him and raised his eyebrows at his probably confused expression. He scoffed, “No signs of concussion? Who is this guy? You’re gunna come with me and I’ll have our people look you over.”
“Your people?”
“Oh. Hi, I’m Eddie Munson,” he held his hand out to shake Steve’s, and held onto it for a long moment.
“Uh. Steve. Harrington.”
Neither of them had the reaction they expected at their names, apparently. Steve started to look around now at the room to try to gain some knowledge of this person. So far all he knew was the man, Eddie, had a tattoo over his hip and onto his ass. And he wore leather pants.
And had zero issues being naked in front of a stranger.
“My band is next door, they don’t usually want to share a dressing room with me,” he then looked down and grinned. “But since I have a visitor, I guess I should put on some pants.”
Steve opened his mouth to say it was his room and he didn’t mind, but quickly closed it. He didn’t know who this guy was, or who he’d share that information with.
“It’s okay, sweetheart,” Eddie smirked again. “I saw you checking out the package already. You’re safe with me. I’m gunna take good care of you.”
Steve laughed, but something in his chest unclenched, a warmth rolling in his belly. He tried to ignore it.
Eddie had put on a pair of joggers and a tshirt that was mostly holes before escorting him into a different room.
After he was introduced to everyone, Gareth gave him a wide knowing smile as he looked him up and down. “Where’d you find this one, Ed?”
“Oh,” he grinned from his sprawl on the couch next to him. “He found me. Walked right into my room and saw my naked ass.”
Drew snickered from behind his fist.
Jeff choked on his sip of water. “For real? Why can’t you just keep your clothes on, dude?”
Steve tried to keep up with what was clearly an old and ongoing argument, but Eddie handed him a bottle of water and stared at him until he drank it. Then he just settled in.
It was strangely comfortable, even though he had been thrown into this situation. The easy comradery between these guys was just like being with his teammates.
He felt his eyes slipping shut and jerked his head back up when a hand settled on his arm.
“Hey pretty, I don’t think it’s a great idea for you to be sleeping. Let’s go find Argyle and get him to check you out and then we’ll go to the hotel, okay?”
Eddie’s soft voice somehow booked no argument and he found himself nodding, getting to his feet with a tiny bit of Eddie’s help. He still felt strange, off kilter in a way he couldn’t explain.
“Yo Argyle, this is Steve,” he called once they’d reached a more open area, like a big backstage set up from what Steve could figure.
“Hi Steve!” Argyle’s wide smile and friendly eyes made him relax immediately. He’d love to run his hands through his long silky looking hair, it had to be down past his waist. Argyle did the same look over that Gareth had, and turned his knowing look back at Eddie. “Snatched him up after the game, huh? Typical.”
Eddie huffed and rolled his eyes. “I’ll have you know, he actually stumbled upon me! You guys don’t have to throw this in my face every time, you know. But hey! Steve needs your help!”
“My help?” Argyle looked him over again, more scrutinizing this time. “With?”
“He got ‘cleared’ by their medical for a concussion but I’d like to make sure. He seems disoriented, and he almost just fell asleep. So,” Eddie waved his hand between them like he was doing a magic trick and Steve laughed.
Argyle smirked, looking between them. “So you wanna know if it’s safe for, like, any extracurricular activities tonight.”
“Uhh, well, I-“ Steve stammered, looking between the two of them. Eddie simply grinned at him as he felt his ears and cheeks flush.
“Come sit, Steve,” Argyle sighed.
He flicked a pen light over his eyes and asked about his head and past injuries, Steve answering to the best of his knowledge. It was hard to concentrate, especially with Eddie hovering over them and the promise in his eyes.
“If anything, a very low grade concussion. But it could be just dehydration and fatigue from the game and getting a bump to the head.” Argyle looked over his paper and handed it back to him. Then he turned to smirk at Eddie. “You gunna look after him tonight?”
“Sure am,” he grinned back.
Argyle snorted. “Well you have my number, if he starts feeling worse- nauseous, his pupils look weird or he gets a bad headache- just call me. Nothing too strenuous, Ed,” he pointed a finger at him.
Eddie held his hands up in front of him, putting on an innocent face. “Of course not!” But he winked at Steve when Argyle turned his back.
Steve felt drawn to him, in a strange way that he’d never felt before. He’d messed around with guys before, of course, but this felt different. He already felt like he’d known Eddie for years.
“Oh! Hey Argyle, can you find someone to tell that I’m stealing Harrington? He never made it back to Basketball Land after his checkup.” Eddie held his hand out for Steve and he took it, allowing the surprisingly strong arm to pull him to his feet. With his shoes on now, they stood eye to eye and Steve felt that warmth in his belly again.
Steve let himself really look at him now, noticing the big dark brown eyes and his long eyelashes, the defined Cupid’s bow above his plush lips. Eddie was stunning. He let his gaze get trapped in the dark curls that dropped down his chest.
“Okay space cadet, you’re coming with me,” Eddie huffed.
It wasn’t until he got in the car with Eddie that he realized he didn’t have any of his stuff. His clothes, his phone, nothing.
“Ed- um, this is very nice of you, but I need my stuff from the locker room.” Steve fidgeted with his hands, awkward somehow now that he was being taken back to Eddie’s hotel room. He wasn’t used to not calling the shots.
“It’s being sent over, honey. I got it all taken care of. Just relax. Usually I’m at the venue a lot longer than this, miss all the traffic. It might take us a while to get moving.”
Eddie slid his arm over Steve’s shoulders and he found himself leaning in, letting his eyes close.
“Stevie, we’re here.”
Opening his eyes at the voice, he quickly let them fall closed again and couldn’t hold back the smile at Eddie running his hand through his hair. His dried sweat hair.
“Ugh, good. I desperately need a shower,” he groaned.
Eddie chuckled, unfortunately his hands leaving him to open the car door. “That sounds like a great plan.” He winked at him as he helped him out of the car.
They took a small elevator up from the deserted lobby, Steve not paying attention to the buttons until the door opened. Directly into a large penthouse suite.
“Wha- Holy shit. This-“ He cleared his throat and shook his head. “This is all yours?”
“Yeah,” Eddie grinned. He typed something quickly into his phone and tossed it down onto a front table. “What, they don’t put you guys up in fancy places?”
“No, I was rooming with fucking Aaron ‘The Mouthbreather,’” he shook his head again, rushing over to the floor to ceiling windows looking over the city. He turned back towards Eddie. “Okay, wait. Who are you?”
Eddie looked sheepish for the first time all evening, and it settled something in him. At least the guy was human.
“I sort of liked it better when you didn’t know. But you’ll find out soon enough. You, uh, ever hear of Corroded Coffin?”
Frowning, he tried to place where he had heard that name before. “Maybe?”
“So, Gareth, Drew, Jeff and I… we’re Corroded Coffin. We hit it big last year, been sailing on some radio hits recently. Our big tour starts tomorrow, we were doing some set up and finalizing everything today.”
“Wow,” he breathed, looking around at the huge space.
“The record company had to really sell us on it, to be honest. We’re pretty much small town boys at heart… so I think this is overkill, but it is fun.” Eddie looked around with him for a moment, a goofy smile on his face.
He had a million more questions.
The door opened behind Eddie and a man stepped out with a bag. Steve’s duffle bag. He started walking over to take it but the man handed it to Eddie, quickly receiving some bills from him.
“Will you be needing anything else, Mr. Munson?” He asked politely.
“I don’t think so, thank you. Have a good night.”
“Thank you sir, you as well.”
Eddie grinned. “I plan on it.”
The man actually bowed before turning and getting back into the elevator.
“This is nuts,” Steve whispered. He’d only seen things like that in movies.
Eddie turned back to him, handing him his bag. “Everything accounted for?”
“Oh. Um.” He unzipped his duffle and located his phone and charger, hairspray, protein bars and clothes that had been in his locker. “Yeah. I didn’t have much. Mostly needed my phone.”
He unlocked his phone and quickly sent a text:
Rob, not going to be able to call tonight. Everything’s fine, I’ll talk to you tomorrow. Love you
“Boyfriend?”
Steve turned to see that of course Eddie had read the text over his shoulder. He huffed a laugh. “No, girl best friend, actually. She’d be blowing me up if I didn’t check in.”
Eddie gave him a small smile, “That’s cute. Really none of my business, sorry. I just don’t need any entanglements showing up here to shoot me or anything.” He shrugged but Steve could tell he was more pleased than he was letting on.
“All good, no entanglements who would care if I, uh, entangled with anyone else,” he chuckled.
“Good,” Eddie laughed. “Well, for me at least.”
Steve was hit with the deep and sudden need to kiss him, and he felt himself leaning into him, but then the elevator opened again.
A different guy in a uniform wheeled in a low cart with bottles of water and plates covered in cloches. Steve raised an eyebrow at Eddie.
“Ordered us some stuff,” he shrugged. Again he handed some folded up bills to the man and exchanged pleasantries and Steve was well on his way to falling for him. Pay attention to how a man treats his inferiors or something. Steve was the same way, getting to know their bus drivers and the most lowly handlers they interacted with.
“Food or shower first? Then we can trade off.”
“Oh.” His stomach dropped. “I thought-“ he shook his head. Nothing to get upset about. It would be weird to want to shower with someone you literally just met. “Never mind.”
“Don’t do that.” Eddie came closer, catching his eye. “What’s the matter, sweetheart?”
Holding the eye contact, taking in Eddie’s accepting face, he shook his head again. It was fine. “It’s nothing. Just- I thought… maybe you wanted to shower with me.” He mumbled the last part and looked away, feeling like a teenager again.
Eddie moved closer still, stopping with a few inches between them. He cupped his jaw and tilted his head up to look into his eyes. “Is that what you want? Me to shower with you? We don’t have to do anything you’re not comfortable with.” Eddie stared deeply into his eyes, probably trying to decide if Steve was taking this in. “I’m not that guy. I’m thrilled with whatever you want to do. Okay Stevie?”
He nodded and couldn’t hold back the small smile. He could tell Eddie meant it, and his genuine affection was winning him over quickly. “Okay, Eds.”
They could still blame his little stumble as he got into the shower on the light head injury, but he saw the smirk on Eddie’s face when he caught him with a hand around his waist.
“If you wanted me to touch you, pretty boy, you could’ve just asked. Don’t have to go all damsel in distress on me.”
“Already saved me, didn’t you?” Steve teased back. At Eddie’s cocked eyebrow, he continued. “Would’ve been wandering around grey hallways all night.”
“Hmmm,” Eddie hummed, nodding. “True, someone else could’ve gotten their claws into the little lost basketball player.” He brought his free hand to trace his fingers through Steve’s wet chest hair. “Good thing I scooped him up instead,” he said, low and rumbly.
His voice was doing things to him, and the way he was touching him was going straight to his dick. All the attitude he had evaporated and he was suddenly desperate.
Leaning in, trying to catch Eddie’s eye to get him on the same page, he almost whined when instead Eddie pulled back and reached for soap on the shelf.
“Oh no,” Eddie cooed. “What’s that face for? You look like someone stole your toy, baby.” He chuckled and Steve huffed a small laugh, immensely happy when he came back into his personal space again. “Hi there. Are you always this needy or is it just for me?”
Steve actually whined this time, unsure if he’d ever made such an embarrassing noise in his life. “Fuck, I think it’s just you.” He was already uncomfortably hard, his cock straining upwards between them.
“Uh uh, say it properly.” Eddie’s eyes darkened and Steve thought his knees were going to give out.
He floundered, trying to figure out what that meant. “Wha- I-“ he shook his head but couldn't take his eyes off of Eddie in front of him.
“Say you’re so needy for me,” Eddie directed. His tone and low voice zinged down his spine and his dick twitched between them. Unable to place this feeling, he chose not to question it and just followed directions.
“Holy shit,” he hissed. Then, catching Eddie’s eye, he went for broke. “I’m so needy for you, Eds. Please.”
Eddie made a low satisfied sound in his throat that made the warmth in his belly expand. He’d never felt this turned on before in his life. And they weren’t even doing anything.
“Please what, baby?” Eddie moved closer to him, a sly smile creeping across his face. “Wash your hair?” He reached up and pushed his wet hair back from his forehead. His eyes settled on his lips. “Kiss you?” Steve opened his mouth to agree, but Eddie’s gaze traveled lower. “Play with your pretty cock?”
“Yes,” Steve sighed, not sure which one he was asking for but it didn’t matter as lips crashed into his and he was pulled into Eddie’s arms.
Steve groaned and his bottom lip was sucked into Eddie’s mouth, receiving a quick bite and a soothing swipe of his tongue. If Steve hadn’t been desperately clinging to him he might have hit the floor.
Eddie pushed him against the wall of the shower, maybe knowing he was done for, or knowing he needed the stability. Calloused hands traced down his sides before wrapping around his hard length.
“Open your eyes, sweetheart.” Eddie purred at him after breaking their kiss.
Steve complied and gasped at the image in front of him, Eddie’s wet hair even darker and slicked back, sticking to his shoulders. Eddie’s eyes were deep and dark, his mouth reddened and opened slightly.
“Good boy. You doin’ okay? I don’t want to get in trouble with Argyle.” He smirked at him, somehow managing to look devious yet completely innocent as he slowly fisted his cock between them.
Steve nodded and when he didn’t get a response other than a pointed look, he thought hard about answering his question. He felt okay, other than desperately needing to come and very out of his league when it came to Eddie. But he didn’t feel any of the symptoms Argyle had told them to look out for. “I’m okay. Please don’t stop. C-can I touch you?” He ducked his head down but then was staring at Eddie’s complex tattoos and his neglected hard cock.
“Of course, gorgeous. C’mere.” Eddie arranged their limbs for him, thankfully, getting them aligned so they each had a hand on each other, before crashing their lips back together and sliding his free hand around the back of Steve’s head. He got a fistful of hair and used it to keep him right where he wanted him.
Steve tried to focus on getting Eddie off, but his body felt like it was trying to shatter apart from the slippery hand wrapped around his own dick and Eddie taking him apart with his mouth.
His hips rocked forward and their lengths slid together causing them both to groan into the kiss.
“So fuckin’ hot, Stevie,” Eddie panted into his ear before sucking and biting down his neck.
He couldn’t be sure who moved first, but their hips shifted allowing their hands to come together encircling both of their cocks. They chased their release, both shoving into their combined fingers.
Steve got a handful of curly hair and pulled their mouths back together, quickly allowing Eddie to take over the ravenous kiss.
He pulled back quickly as he realized he was- “Gunna come, ah ah!“
Eddie stared at him, tilting their foreheads together as both of their hips stuttered and they came between their bodies.
“Oh fuck,” Eddie breathed, working their lengths through their aftershocks and looking down to see the combined mess. “So glad we did this in the shower,” he snickered.
“Jesus Christ,” Steve laughed, ducking his head as he could feel the blush rise on his cheeks.
“Now he’s gunna try to be shy, huh? After he seduced me into the shower and mnph-“ Steve captured his lips again and they smiled against each other.
Somehow they managed to get washed up, dried off and tumbled into bed.
Steve was warm and comfortable, but something was nudging his subconscious awake while he tried to sink back into sleep.
Becoming slowly more aware of his immediate surroundings, the soft sheets and someone cuddling behind him, he still wasn’t sure what it was. Then something hard pushed between his cheeks and across his entrance.
He must have startled or tensed up because they quickly moved away, mumbling, “Sorry.”
Finally memories of the whirlwind of the previous day floated across his mind, and Steve pulled him closer, arching his back. “No. Please, Eds. Need you.”
He felt the groan behind him and their hips both stuttered.
“God, Stevie,” he panted into his shoulder. A hand came up to ghost across his nipple, rubbing more firmly at his gasp.
They moved together for a few moments, precome allowing Eddie to glide between his cheeks but it wasn’t enough for him.
Steve finally pushed back hard, gasping, “Fuck me, Eddie. I need it. Need more.”
The hand on his chest cupped his pec roughly before coming up to his mouth. He opened automatically and sucked two fingers into his mouth, reveling in the moan it caused behind him.
“Get those wet for me, honey.” Eddie’s rough morning voice made him moan as he licked across the calloused fingers.
Eddie pulled his fingers out and he missed them for a moment before his leg was moved, widening for-
“Oh fuck,” he breathed as the wet fingers rubbed over his entrance.
The small amount of spit wasn’t going to be enough but Steve rocked back into the fingers and hoped Eddie had lube close by. Or that he’d just push himself inside of him. He groaned and a shiver went through him.
“I know, baby. Wait one second, okay?”
Eddie’s warmth disappeared from behind him and he swore under his breath from across the room.
He heard him come closer to the bed and the familiar plastic crinkle of a condom wrapper as he moved around behind him. Without any further preamble he felt a cold slippery finger slide into him and he gasped, but rocked back into it immediately.
“Please,” he panted. Eddie shushed him and pushed another finger in, scissoring them around slowly. Adding more lube and another finger, Steve finally cried out as he rubbed across his prostate.
Eddie lined himself up behind him and rubbed the head of his cock across his hole a few times to tease him before slowly, slowly pushing in. He set a languid pace, tracing patterns on Steve’s hips and up his chest, holding him close.
He had never felt this close to someone before, his previous hookups usually meaningless and hurried. This felt like they were becoming one person, pressed close and breathing the same air. Moving together without the delirious necessity of release, just wanting to feel.
A hot mouth found his neck and he couldn’t hold back the whimper that left him.
“So sweet for me,” Eddie purred, lips never leaving his skin. Kissing down his shoulder, he twisted his hips causing his dick to drag across Steve’s prostate. He hummed into his skin and picked the pace up only slightly as Steve panted.
Unable to hold back anymore, he wrapped a hand around his own dripping cock and Eddie added his hand too, intentionally slowing down his movements.
“Eds, oh, so good. Oh my god,” he rambled, too gone to coherently express all the feelings swirling in his chest.
“Gunna come, gorgeous. Come with me.”
Steve rocked back against the thrusts, gasping as the hot mouth returned to his neck and hands tightened around his length. He was so close.
“Ah, holy shit, ah-“ he bit into his lip as he came hard over their fingers and felt Eddie’s hips stutter against him.
He felt like he’d melted into a puddle. They stayed stuck together, their breaths slowing in time. He whined as Eddie pulled out of him and got out of bed, but he couldn’t move. A wet cloth was wiped over him and he hummed an appreciative sound.
Eddie got back in behind him and snuggled into his neck, yanked the blanket over them before wrapping his arms around him. Right before he sunk into unconsciousness a hand laced their fingers together over his chest.
“Good morning, sunshine.” Eddie kissed his forehead and he smiled. “Well, afternoon, but we gotta get to the arena.”
“That’s a new one,” Steve mused.
“New what?”
“Nickname. Sunshine.”
“Yeah? It suits you.” Kissed down his jaw to his neck. “Could light up a room without even trying.” He scraped his teeth across his collarbone and Steve yelped. “Hmmm or puppy, since you’re so eager and always making these cute little noises.”
Steve should be offended but he felt the blood color his cheeks.
Eddie sat back with a grin. “You like that one, huh? C’mon then sleeping beauty, let’s get some food in you and we’ll get out of here.”
Steve whined and pulled him down for a long kiss first, soaking in this undivided attention for as long as he could. It was so honest and endearing, and somehow the names made him feel like this could be more than just a hookup. He’d never been the one taken care of or doted on before. He took care of everyone. It was a new feeling that he already felt himself getting used to.
He let the warm feeling wash over him as they quietly ate everything on last night’s snack cart and today’s brunch tray. He could really get used to this treatment.
“Eds, I don’t really have anything to wear for a concert,” he called out from the bedroom, looking down at his meager pile of clean clothes.
“There’s not really a dress code, babe,” he heard Eddie laugh from the next room. “Just put something on and we’ll find something for you.”
It wasn’t until he was dressed and shoving his dirty clothes from the night before into his duffle that he found his phone and groaned. It was dead and they needed to leave.
“It’s okay, sweetheart, you can charge it when we get there. The car is already downstairs.”
Steve simply nodded but internally knew he was in big trouble. He hadn’t checked in with anyone in more than twenty four hours and they wouldn’t have even been able to see his location on the app if his phone was dead. Sighing, he grabbed all his stuff and went down the elevator with Eddie.
Once they got back to the arena and Eddie dropped him off in the same room they’d met, he plugged his phone in and sat on the floor by the outlet watching the little red battery blink at him until it powered on.
He watched as all the missed calls and texts from Robin, Dustin and Max rolled in. Instead of reading anything he just dialed Robin. She picked up on the second ring.
“What the fuck, dingus? You better have a really good reason for falling off the face of the earth. And why was your location off?”
He groaned. “I’m sorry, Robs. My phone died.”
“What happened? You’ve never let your phone die after a game before. Dustin said you got fouled last night and never came back out from the locker room.”
He winced and rubbed his hand over his face. “Well, I never made it to the locker room, actually.”
“What does that mean?” He could imagine the speculative face he was sure she was making.
“Listen, this is weird and I need you to not freak out because it’s turned out to be the best thing ever. So. Give me forty five seconds before you start yelling, deal?”
“Maybe.”
He sighed. “That douchebag fouled me and I hit my head. They brought me to medical where they told me I didn’t have a concussion but I was still kind of out of it. The idiot medic didn’t want to bring me back to the locker room I guess, so I got lost. And I ran into,” he chuckled. Then stopped when Robin huffed at him. “Sorry. I ended up meeting someone, and I spent the night with him. But he’s amazing, Robs…” He wasn’t sure what else he could say, or how much time he had left before she was released. “He’s, um, in a band, we were all in the same place because they’re playing tonight.
There was a long pause before- “Steven Bartholomew Harrington!” He winced again and pulled the phone away from his ear. “You had us all going crazy worried about you and you were getting laid by a dickhead in a band?”
“I know. I’m sorry. He’s not a dickhead though. He saw that I was disoriented and he got me checked out by his own staff and then… took care of me last night.”
“Oh I’m sure he did,” she grumbled.
“Stop, Robin,” he huffed. “I really like him and even though it definitely started as a quick hookup I feel like it could be more. Like he’s amazing. I promise.”
“Uh huh. Let me speak to him.”
“No, Robs-“
“Yes, Steve. Or I’m sending in Max. This asshole had you forgetting you had a phone for twenty four hours? What kind of platonic soulmate would I be if I didn’t look out for you?”
“He’s not here, Robin, he’s doing-“ he didn’t actually know what he was doing.
“That’s fine. You have three minutes.”
Steve scrambled to his feet and the phone fell to the ground when he tried to walk with it still attached to the charger.
“Sorry. Dropped you. I’m going, I’m going.”
Rounding a corner in the direction he sort of remembered going the night before, he followed the sounds of echoing voices until he found the doorway to the open backstage area.
He saw Gareth first and headed to him at a jog. “Hey-“
“Hey basketball, how’s it going?” Gareth grinned at him.
“I’m okay, but I need to find Eddie, quickly.”
Steve watched as he cupped his hands over his mouth and yelled, “EDDIE! EDDIIIIEEEEEEE YOUR BOY TOY NEEDS YOU!”
Steve blinked at him and he continued grinning back.
“Stevie? You okay?” Eddie popped out of nowhere from across the room, heading over quickly. Gareth walked away like this was completely ordinary.
“Uh, yeah, sorry about that. I, um, this is really weird but I need you to talk to my friend Robin? Just real quick. She’s, uh, not happy that I let my phone die and didn’t check in with anyone today… Please?” He held the phone up between them.
“Sure, honey.” Eddie frowned at him, taking the phone from his hand. “Hello? Hiya Robin, my name is Eddie Munson.” His eyebrows went up and Steve winced. He mouthed I’m so sorry at him and Eddie stared at him with an unreadable look. “Okay, hear you loud and clear, Robin. Hope to see you in person eventually. Uh huh, have a good one.” He handed the phone back to Steve with a blank expression before grabbing his hand and pulling him out of the room.
“Wha-“ Steve got out before he was shoved against the wall in the hallway and kissed within an inch of his life. He sank into it and kissed back after a few seconds. Maybe Robin hadn’t ruined this for him after all.
Eddie broke the kiss and hummed at him, looking at him from under his eyelashes. “So, anything you wanna tell me, sweetheart?”
“Uh. That my platonic soulmate doesn’t know the word boundaries?”
Eddie laughed, but shook his head. “Well who really does, but no, that’s not what I’m talking about. She had to tell me if I hurt you they would hunt me down and hit me over the head with a shovel and no one would ever find my body.”
“I’m sor-“
“No, baby. She said because you ‘really like me’ she needed me to know that you had people looking out for you.” Eddie kissed him again quickly. “I really like you too.”
Steve stared at him a bit dumbfounded for a moment. “Th-that’s what you took from that?”
“Well yeah, your friend is terrifying, sweets, but that doesn’t really bother me because I don’t plan on hurting you. I think it’s great that you’ve found people who would threaten my life. It’s somehow endearing,” he chuckled.
“Well do I have some stories for you, then,” Steve laughed.
“Sure puppy,” he grinned at him when color flooded his cheeks. “C’mon, I could use your help, actually.” He squeezed his bicep and Steve groaned good naturedly. He was feeling much better today and could definitely carry heavy things for them.
Hours later, Steve was feeling pleasantly sore and almost giddy after soaking in all the casual touches and lingering looks from Eddie.
Now after they’d cleaned up, only getting distracted a few times in long kisses, Eddie pulled a faded shirt out of somewhere and threw it at him with a leer.
Steve figured it’d be tight, but he held eye contact with him as he pulled it down his broad chest.
“Fuck, baby. Should’ve had you in my clothes all day.” He reached forward to pull the hem straight. “Maybe not though, we wouldn’t’ve left this room.” His eyes didn’t leave his chest.
There was a loud knock on the door and Eddie sighed. “Come in!”
Jeff opened the door a crack to peek through before finally walking in and Steve laughed.
Jeff shook his head with a grimace. “Apparently sometimes he ‘forgets’ he’s naked and still says come in,” he grumbled. “Not all of us want to see your dick, you know. Anyways! We’re all set up and they need everyone to start sound checks.”
Jeff quickly left the room and Eddie pulled him into a hungry kiss. Steve gasped as a tongue swiped over his lip before teasing across his own. He clenched his hands in Eddie’s shirt but he broke the kiss before he could do anything else.
“Stay here, sunshine. One of the venue guys will come bring you to your spot, okay? Then I’ll meet you back here after.” Steve grinned and nodded and he got a forehead kiss before another quick peck on his lips.
Steve hung out in the dressing room until someone with an earpiece came to get him. But instead of being escorted down where he assumed he’d be, they went up an elevator and shown into a private box, where a lower part had a few rows of auditorium seats.
He turned to the man to ask if he was sure this was right, but he was already gone. There was a sheet of paper in the slot in the door that read ‘Guest of E.M.’ He took a selfie with it and sent it to Robin.
An opening band started a few minutes later and he clapped and cheered in support. He hadn’t really been to many concerts and never in a private box. He entertained himself by poking around the snacks and mini bar, deciding to help himself to a beer.
When the band onstage said their thanks and left the stage, he went down into the seats to wait for Corroded Coffin. He was inexplicably nervous but excited. He munched on some pretzels and a candy bar to keep his hands busy.
Then the lights came back up and he gasped loudly as he caught sight of Eddie bouncing on his toes at the front of the stage, in ripped jeans and a tight mesh shirt, hair wild and huge grin on his face. He was looking directly up at him in his box and sent him a theatric wink when he caught his eye. Steve grinned and waved.
Their music was different than he expected somehow, heavier metal and pounding bass, but it worked so well for them and their energy and the energy from the crowd was infectious. He found himself standing at the edge of his row of seats, jumping and bouncing around. Eddie would often come towards his side of the stage to blow a kiss or just stare up at him as he sang and he felt his heart and his pants tighten. He whooped and laughed and jumped up and down as Eddie thrashed around on stage. He was blown away by the band and the music, even if he hadn’t known Eddie and the guys beforehand.
When he realized the band was wrapping up their set he was momentarily disappointed but then remembered he got to go see Eddie. He groaned and tried to reposition his throbbing dick in his pants.
After making his way back down to Eddie’s dressing room after their encore, he paced around before throwing himself onto the couch. He really hoped Eddie didn’t want to wait to do anything until they were back at the hotel.
The door finally opened and Eddie rushed through it, making eye contact as he pushed it closed behind him and turned the lock.
He went to stand but Eddie shook his head and came over to straddle his lap. Steve rubbed his hands up and down his thighs and stared up at him.
“Hi puppy,” he teased, tracing his fingers down his cheeks and to his neck as he felt them redden. “Got me alI worked up watching me play, Stevie.” He kissed across his jaw and down to his shirt collar. Eddie’s shirt collar. “Watching you jump around in my Metallica shirt was something else.”
He captured his mouth in a filthy kiss and Steve could only hold on for dear life. Eddie pulled away with a nip to his lip and a dark look.
“You were so hot, Eds. It was-“ he shook his head, unable to find words to describe it.
Humming at him as he pushed himself down onto his lap to make him whine, Eddie leered at him. “Can I ride your pretty cock, baby?”
Steve nodded dumbly, mouth hanging open, and could only watch as Eddie went to rifle through his backpack across the room.
“Holy shit,” he mumbled as Eddie came back towards him with a couple small packets of lube and a condom. How had he gotten this lucky?
“Gunna be so good for me, aren’t you sunshine?” He pulled his shirt off and wiggled his pants down as he stood in front of him, hard dick already dripping. Steve automatically pulled his own shirt off and awkwardly unbuttoned his jeans to push them off his hips. They giggled at each other when they had to stop and help each other out of their shoes to get their pants off.
Eddie positioned himself back over his lap, staying up on his knees this time as he ripped open a packet of lube and reached behind himself. They both groaned as Steve watched his face, his hands coming up to grab at a hip and wrap around his hard length.
“Oh fuck, honey. You can’t do that or I’m gunna come too quick. Need to come with your cock inside me.”
Steve whined, nodding again and instead reached beside him to squirt some lube on his hand.
“Let me feel you, Eds,” he breathed and at Eddie’s groan he rubbed his fingers across his entrance, pushing the tip of his finger against the rim.
“God your hands are huge,” Eddie hissed. He rocked back into his finger as it slid further in, Steve watching his face with rapt attention as he squeezed his eyes shut and panted. “Another one. I’m not going to last much longer.”
Steve quickly added a second finger and scissored them around, grinning as he pinpointed his prostate and Eddie cried out beautifully. Eddie pushed his hand away and continued on his own, Steve taking the time to slide the condom down his leaking dick.
“Fuck, gorgeous. Can’t wait to bounce on this cock of yours. Oh, holy fuck-“ Eddie panted and finally arranged himself closer, reaching beneath him to line Steve up to his hole.
They panted against each other as Eddie sunk down his length. Their mouths crashed together and Eddie fucked their tongues against each other as he bottomed out.
“Oh my god,” Steve breathed, not pulling his mouth away. “Please move. I’m dying, babe. God you’re perfect. Please.” He had Eddie’s hips in a death grip and finally helped him raise up and down slowly.
“Jesus Christ.” He watched with a deep satisfaction as Eddie’s eyes rolled back and he planted his feet on the floor to thrust up into him. “Ah! Yes, fuck me, just like that princess.”
The name caught him off guard but made his dick twitch and he cried out, staring up at him with wide eyes.
“Yeah you like that one, huh? I know. Such a spoiled princess already. Gunna make me come so hard on your cock, oh fuck.” His hands slid into the back of his Steve’s hair as he held on for dear life, their thrusts becoming wild as they chased their climaxes.
Eddie clenched around him and came untouched between them, Steve crying out as his hips stuttered up as he came.
“God damn,” he breathed, dropping his face into Eddie’s neck as they came down. “You’re never getting rid of me.”
“Wasn’t planning on it, sweetheart,” he groaned.
The next morning, he blearily clicked on a link Robin texted him. The headline of a news site read, ‘Hot New It Couple? Corroded Coffin frontman Eddie Munson seen leaving concert with Steve Harrington of the Indiana Pacers.’ He showed the little picture of their heads huddled together to Eddie and they shrugged and snuggled back under the covers.

end of the semester absolutely fucking shot my brain cells so uhhh have the opening bit for a pvparkciv crossover thingy i made for my au! this was 100% inspired by this post. i also used @/ashmellow78's version of parkour language (which you can translate using this).
just like the other thing i wrote for this concept, this is second person but it's not a reader insert! pov character is parkciv!evbo. short and easy explanation of the au is pkbo rose quartz-ed himself to make pevbo. this au of the au is just a what-if of pevbo being sent into the past.
i'll stop yapping now hope the masses enjoy o7
Usually when Crown calls for you, he doesn’t say your name. He doesn’t speak in general. You’ve been married so long words aren’t needed. He can just think or feel and you’ll come running.
So when he says “Evbo” in a voice that brook no argument, you immediately arrive at his side.
And you immediately see the problem.
There’s another you sitting on the block in front of you. He’s looking up at you both with wide eyes, curious and wary. There’s a sword strapped to his hip that’s hanging on the edge.
“Uh… hi?”
“Evbo,” Crown says again. You both look at him, but he only has eyes for you. Which would make you happy on a normal day. Clearly, today is not normal.
“Did you have an immaculate conception?”
“What? No! I think I would remember if I was pregnant.”
Crown looks at you funny, but ultimately drops the matter. Still, the thought’s been planted. The seed is sprouting.
Could you have made another you without knowing? It’s possible. Even after all these years, sometimes you do things without realizing it. The Bee Incident still gives several parkour citizens nightmares.
So you reach out. The other you feels familiar, overwhelming familiar. Like meeting someone you forgot existed. There’s a weird layer to his soul, shimmering like water reflecting the sun.
And right beneath it is
{}_ []___ /__/_ []___ L__ |_|_ * {}_ []_ |_|_ []____ {}__ //_/_ * {}_ L__[]_ /__/_ []_ * |_|_ []___ /__/_ []_ L__ * []__ |__|_ []____ ||_|_ []_
Oh. Oh. Maybe you were pregnant and didn’t realize.
In any case, that’s something to dwell on later. As it stands, there’s a stranger on the outskirts of your civilization that needs addressing. So you look at him, and you make sure to put on the air of comfort and safety.
“Are you okay?”
Your (copy’s? imposter’s?) soul reacts immediately. It reaches out, clamoring for… what, exactly? It’s so loud you can hardly make heads or tails of it.
The other you doesn’t seem aware of this, instead perking up at being addressed. “I’m okay,” he answers, and wow. He doesn’t look that much younger than you were when you first started on your parkour journey. Did you really sound that young?
Oh, you’re getting old.
“Some passersby told me they found you passed out,” Crown explains, once again addressing you. “When I got here he was awake. He didn’t recognize me, so I called you.”
“Aw, you were worried about little old me?”
“It’d be incredibly concerning if my god was dead, yes.”
Other you (damn this kid needs a name) gasps at that. “Wait, you’re a god?!” There are stars in his eyes. It’s weird seeing that expression on a face so similar.
“That’s so cool! What are you the god of? Wait, wait.” He cuts you off before you can even think to answer. Other you shakes his hands, looking around.
“Gotta focus on the important stuff, Evbo,” he mutters to himself. “So, um, where am I? And who are you?”
“You’re in Parkour Civilization,” you answer. You see something click in his brain, but it’s not because he recognizes the name. “You might’ve guessed it already, but I’m Evbo. Also the Parkour God.”
You place a hand on Crown’s shoulder, pulling him as close as you can be while standing on different blocks. “And this is my husband Crown.”
“You guys don’t have swords?”
Crown answers this time. “We have them, but they’re purely ornamental. Why?”
“Because they’re your life?” He almost pulls out his sword, hand stopping midway. “That’s how it works in PVP Civilization. Are your lives not tied to parkour?”
You share a look with Crown. Totally not a concerning line of questioning.
“Kind of, but that was a long time ago.” You reach out, offering other you a hand. He takes it, almost stumbling off the block as he stands.
It’s going to suck so bad if he can’t do one-block jumps. No maybe secret asexually produced child of yours is going to suck at parkour. You can almost hear Seawatt laughing at you from beyond the server.
“That’s weird. But I guess it makes sense. Not every place can be PVP Civilization. Pretty sure that’s the only place I’ve been, though, so who knows.”
“Evbo,” Crown starts. “Your name is Evbo, right?”
“Yep!”
“We should get you to a doctor. Regardless of why, you were passed out for who knows how long.”
Other you shrugs. “Like, an hour maybe? I’ve gotten good at counting time while I’m sleeping.” There’s a pause. “Besides, I can’t go to a doctor! I have to get back!”
“Hey, buddy.” Attention successfully redirected. “I’m you, right? Take it from me: you’re gonna feel a lot better if you go. And then we promise to help you find your way back.”
He thinks about it for a good seven seconds before brightening up. “Alright! Lead the way!”

Flower Shop Across the Music Store
(AU: Miles works at a flower shop. Hobie owes his music Store.)
The sound of the machine printing out a long list of receipts had the young man ripped it off to had to the customer. "Here's your receipt. Remember no returns if it's open." The Punker said in a serious tone before going back to reorganizing some CDs.
The customer left with a nod before taking his leave with his skateboard in his other hand. The front door opens with its bell ringing, a group of three teenage boys wearing Y2K outfits; large baggy pants, and oversize shirts. Very old school style of New York, with Jordans, and timberlands.
Hobie glances over, "Manny, did you do your homework?" At a brown teenage boy wearing bright red oversize t-shirt, baggy pants and Jordans. The one called Manny had a buzz cut with one earring in his left ear, he sucked his teeth in with an eye roll.
"Man," Manny frowns at his adopted older brother, "I was."
"Oh yeh? Let me see it?" The owner of the shop asked.
"Come on, bro." Manny grunts.
"Don't give me that. Go to the back and do your homework. Those are the rules." Hobie crosses his arms. "Unless you wanna go back to yer mama?"
Manny groans, "No. But can I just go skate for a bit. I swear I'll be back at five and do my homework!"
"Alright. But I better see you here before those lights turned on." Hobie pointed at the lamp lights on the street. "I'm gonna make jerk chicken and rice and peas! So you better get home by dinner time."
"Ight, bro! I will." Manny walks out with his friends going to the park to skate and hang out.
The punker merely rolled his eyes, he felt more like a dad to this kid than a brother at times. He heard the boys calling all at once, then one of them said, "Aye, look over there! it's a gonna be a Flower shop."
"Nah, mane. Who goes buy flowers?" A friend of Manny said.
"Who knows but it's better than that wack ass junk store."
"Ya that place was cover in dust."
Hobie saw the boys walking away laughing, he peeks over the shop across his store to find a flower shop being set up. Huh, he never noticed that. The Grand Opening show it's today with a free rose.
Two older Latina women went inside the shop to buy some flowers, coming out with their own bouquets. The punker arched his eyebrows being interested in the shop, during his lunch break he decided to go check it out.
Of course, by the looks on the Flower Shop it look a bit to posh for the neighborhood of Brooklyn. So he wore his black leather jacket and went full Punk on his aesthetics to see if the owners would freak out. He's biggest worry if it's a rich white owner trying to take over a black and brown neighborhood.
"Not on my watch!" He thought to himself before going over to the flower shop.
The door bing with an automatic ringer whenever the door open. The flower shop is small, but had many beautiful flowers with decent prices. "Coming." Hearing a male voice.
Hobie checks around seeing a lot of roses, so many in different types from white to pink to yellow to the iconic red ones. Then, he heard footsteps behind him. He turns around as he heard, "Sorry about that. I was setting up the vases behind the counter."
The moment Hobie's eyes saw the young man, it felt like love at first sight. He never seen anyone so beautiful in his life. The young cashier had big hazel eyes with a cute wide nose and dimple wide smile with those plump lips. The young man have dark skin and coily tapered Afro, with earrings on both ears. He wore an apron over his sunny yellow collar shorts and overalls that have Sunflower embroidered and OG Jordans.
"Uhhh..." Hobie felt like he was styling a sun by the way this man's face glows so brightly.
"Hm?" The cashier tilted his head to the side with those big doe eyes.
The punker saw the cashier's name tag, "Miles. Um, are you the owner?"
"Me? Nah, this is my aunty's shop. I'm working here part time." He looked worried, "Oh do you need to speak to her? My aunty and Uncle will be here tomorrow!"
Hobie never thought he would see someone this cute. "No. No-no!" He raised his hand up, "It's all good. I just wanna say I own a music shop across the street."
"OH! I always wanted to go there! You're the owner! Wow, you dress so cool." Miles' big hazel eyes gleams with excitement.
"Heh, I guess so. It's pretty crappy."
"Oh, I don't think so." Miles giggles, "I think it gives a bit of personality."
"Oh yeah?"
"Mmhmm."
"Never thought it that way." Hobie crosses his arms then slowly asked, "So, what you got for sale?"
"We got twelve dollar bouquets roses." Miles pointed out, "They are small but enough to be romantic." He to hold a bequest of Sunflowers, "Sorry, I need to fix this." He wanted to have the Sunflower flowers their own attention.
"Huh, you look like a Sunflower." Hobie's hand reach out to touch Miles' cheek, "Sunflower." There eyes met.
The young man felt his body heated up by this handsome Punker. Seeing him so tall and having Heterochromia eyes made him look so damn cool and attractive. "Oh, no one ever called me that or any flower."
"I think Sunflower fits you perfectly. Anyway, I like to buy that Sunflower." He offer.
"Oh this one?" Miles is holding it with great care.
This is what Hobie wanted to hold Miles and the best way was that Sunflower. He casually chuckles, "I like that one."
'Okay, I'll ring it up for you." The cashier nodded heading to the front desk to charge the flower. The two stay quiet it until Hobie couldn't take it anymore.
"Here, luv. Maybe you need a discount from her." He slid his phone number on a piece .
"Ehh?" Miles felt his cheeks warm when seeing the phone number on a piece of paper. "Don't you think that's old school?" His hazel eyes onto the punker.
"So? I wanna make my point across." The Punker flirted.
"Okay... but I didn't catch your name." The cashier went to wrap the sunflower.
"Hobie. Hobie Brown." He grins at Miles. "Let me take you out for a cup of coffee."
"I do like coffee." Miles flirted with him, having this warm smile. He could stare at Hobie's one silver blue eyes and the other being brown.
"Yeah." Hobie flirted back, "Hopefully, you and I can go further like dinner or a movie."
"Hehehe," The cashier giggles, "I would like that if things go well."
"I think you and I both know, luv, that we're gonna get along super well with each other." He smirks at him.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah."
The two were staring into each other having big smiles on their faces. Miles couldn't help but be attractive to the punker. "What about tonight?"
"Cup of coffee?"
"Maybe or a movie, since you already said we fit goo together." Miles hums having to charge the Sunflower. "That'll be five thirty five."
"Heh, alright." Hobie grins having to pull out his wallet to pay in cash, "How about this? I take you to a nice Dominican restaurant down there, and see where it goes."
"OKay. I do like Dominican food." Miles' eyes on him, they were interested.
"Alright, when you get off?"
"Around five. My uncle comes by to help close the shop." Miles said, "I'll be ready by then."
"Okay, I'll come by. I normally close shop early too." Hobie grins at the cashier. "See you then, Sunflower."
"See you, Hobie." He smiles at him watching him leave the store.
Hobie could only fantasize about Miles and the smell of Sunflowers just reminds the punker of him. His heart race thinking about it, then he remembers about his adopted brother.
He quickly texted him.
Hobie: Yo, I got a date at five. You can hang out with your friends longer.
Manny: Sweet, can I stay over at Luis till ten?
Hobie: Sure. Do your homework!
Manny: Sure thing bro.
Hobie smirks with that. Now he gotta think what to wear for this date. God, he knows this is the one. His soul mate, he could feel it in his bones!

I think I just recalled what my first ever daydream of the DCA was, and it was an AU I thought up in... what, the first week of FNAF:SB being out?
It was a human AU, except I wanted to play with the slice of life vibes human AUs tended to have by just making the dynamics as dysfunctional and grief-filled as possible. Because, um, you know, why have fun ever. So Freddy adopted a toddler Gregory, and there came a point where he needed someone to watch over him, so Freddy went to Sun and Moon's shared apartment to have them babysit. Sun was like, "uhhh! I actually have to go to work, but Moon can babysit!" And Moon, in this massive blue hoody and wretched bedhead hair because I gave his image 0 respect, ended up very awkwardly holding Gregory with a grimace like "do not leave me like this."
I think Sun and Moon were QPPS in it. This was before I saw anyone exploring labels for their dynamic, so I recall just having to stare at the wall for a moment like, "what... are they..." I also immediately decided that they were both trans and had chosen matching names for fun
I feel like I'm describing a dream right now with how detached I feel from that first December

what about umm needletail for bingo?
Thank you to the brave soul who asked for Needletail, you are about to get a manifesto
Tumblr media
Soooo basically ummmm uhhh so like um basically ummm so uhhh like
Needletail, right? (This is gonna run long, surprising no one)
Needletail has been my favorite character since I first started reading AVoS, which was probablyyyyy like 2018. Before her, my favorite character had been Crookedstar for like A DECADE almost, so I didn’t really expect to find another character I like as much as him, let alone more 😭 A combo of her characterization, place in the narrative, and wasted potential are what make me like her so much and yes you’re about to get an essay explaining all three
First and foremost, I am drawn to rebellious female characters, in general as well as in warriors. Needletail specifically is a little shit who clearly needs an attitude adjustment, acting as a foil to shy and insecure Alderheart. She also foils him in her allegiances, being willing to shortsightedly drive out her own clan, while Alderheart worries for the future of SkyClan and wants to bring them to the lake. I think that’s fun.
Bringing it back to: Needletail is mean. She is mean and rude, and yet Alderheart and Violetshine get to know her beyond that rough exterior. I see a lot of ppl talk about how “Needletail was a terrible friend and sister,” but I argue that it’s more nuanced than this. I believe we see her truest self with Alderpaw in The Apprentices’ Quest. She’s still rebellious and nosy and loves to speak out of turn, but she’s also well-meaning most of the time. Once Darktail comes into the picture, we see less of this, and I think we can and should blame Darktail for this.
I want to stress: she named HERSELF Needletail after Darktail. She was apprentice-age when Darktail started manipulating her and the rest of her friend group. She already had a rebellious streak, and the Kin encouraged it and told her she was right to rebel against her “weak” leader. They fostered a lack of empathy toward her clanmates. Even when she did finally start to come to grips with what she’d done, she was too scared to speak or act out against Darktail, who would (and DID, in the end) kill her for contradicting him. I will die on this hill that Needletail’s story arc was a tragedy about manipulation and desperately trying to right the wrongs she helped to enact. She had Darktail in her ear from a young age, and she did terrible things under him. Those things can coexist. For me though, it doesn’t erase the fact that she chose to try to do right by Violetpaw and the RiverClan prisoners in the end.
I’ve already touched on her place in the narrative as a foil to Alderheart, but she’s also a great tragic antihero in her own right. She made bad decisions and then slowly lost just about everything she cared about as a result of events she self-centeredly didn’t think would affect her. She lost Rain, she lost Darktail’s trust, she lost her former friends, she lost her place at the top of this new hierarchy. So, when she was faced with losing Violetpaw too, she made another decision (a rare selfless act) so that Violetpaw could not only escape, but rally the rest of the clans to get rid of Darktail for good. Her death scene is one of the most iconic and emotional scenes for me, and even though I adoreee Needletail, her sacrifice was well-built up to and well-written. I wouldn’t do anything to change it (THAT BEING SAID! It won’t stop me from my self-indulgent Needlebloom au where she gets to live and ACTUALLY atone for her crimes before getting to settle down and live her life. I wouldn’t want to change canon but I can have a lil self-indulgent au. As a treat).
And speaking of aus, I’ll wrap this up with Needletail’s wasted potential. I could go on but this is already really long lmao. I think above all that Needletail probably shouldn’t have gone to StarClan, or at least should have delayed going to StarClan. HEAR ME OUT. What if she had been there guiding Rootpaw/Rootspring in TBC? She could have had the “unfinished business” angle where she died young and felt like she wasn’t finished yet/still owed it to the clans to help them. Ik she got to kill Darktail in the Dark Forest alongside Violetshine (this scene was For Me and I loved it btdubs), but wouldn’t it have been so much more satisfying if she’d been around the whole time? Rootspring could’ve had someone else to confide in, and it would also give him a reason to actually have a full conversation with Violetshine, who SO frustratingly got shoved into the “Warrior Cats Background Mother Figure™” role immediately after she wasn’t a pov anymore. I guess TLDR, for such a big personality, Needletail fell away into the bg really quickly, and I def think she coulda been used more in TBC, given all the ghost shenanigans going on.
If you read this far, you’re a real one and I hope you enjoyed my ramblings on Needletail lmaoooo and ty again to anon for asking me to discuss the elephant in the room. Not sure whether I’ll answer more bingos after this one, but we’ll see!

galex queer bar au please :)
Hi there 🩷I think you just chose the one fic that has been lying on my laptop finished for months now but I just didn't come around to reading over it and actually posting it. I love the queer bar universe with my whole heart and I have some other stories I want to add to the ones I already posted but (as you might have seen) I have lots and lots of ideas and I can't really take on any more fics right now.
Sorry, I'll stop rambling about the series now and actually get to the Galex fic, so here is a snippet from it. I hope you enjoy. (This is not beta read or proof read or anything so please excuse any mistakes)
Just as George was turning to leave, he heard the door opening behind him. A man came walking in heading straight to the room Charles and Pierre were arguing in now. It seemed like he hadn’t even noticed George. “I don’t think you should go in there right now,” said George carefully. “Ah!” The man shrieked and turned around quickly. “My god, you scared me!” “Sorry, um…,” said George. He hadn’t meant to scare this man, but he didn’t want him to walk into an uncomfortable situation either. “Uhhh… Charles and Pierre are in there right now.” “Oh… OH!” said the man, his eyes went big and round, but he tried to hide his growing smile. “I wondered when the first time would be. Thank you for saving me from the view.” “Oh, um, not like that. I think they're arguing,” said George carefully. “Because of me.” “What? Why would they argue because of yo… Oh. You were here on New Years right? You left with Pierre, didn’t you?” “What? Uh… Maybe.” He didn’t want to start on the wrong footing with him.  “What brings you here again?” asked the man now. Apparently, New Years wasn’t that much of a sore topic for him as it was for Charles. George thought there was something else lying in his voice. He couldn’t name it though.  “Pierre said I might be able to work here. As a waiter?” said George hesitantly.  “Oh…cool. What’s your name?” asked the man now.  “Um, George.” “Okay Um-George. Hi, I’m Alex. I work at the bar together with Charles,” said Alex jokingly. “Hi Alex,” said George quietly.  Alex seemed nice, funny, open. Just what George needed in a friend right now. Honestly, Alex seemed perfect. Maybe even too perfect, but before they could start talking again Charles and Pierre came back out of the room.  Pierre’s hair was much messier than it had been before, and Charles lips were shining in a wild red.  They had made out. Or more, George didn’t even want to know.  Now, Pierre was smiling at George though. While Charles’ glare from before had softened, he still didn’t seem so happy that George was here.  “You got the job,” said Pierre happily while he tucked Charles closer.  “Really? Thank you, Charles,” said George. He didn’t walk over to him to shake hands, he stayed put. He didn’t think Charles would be happy about any physical contact. Well, not from George at least. From the bar, George thought he heard Alex say a whispered shit. But he decided that it had only been his imagination and that Alex had earlier been too nice to say something like that at the prospect of George working alongside him.
I actually can't say when this fic might be posted, I'm really sorry, but i do hope I will get it out there at one point 🩷

20 questions!
thanks for the tags @gaeasun @saltsanford @purgetrooperfox <3 love you guys
How many works do you have on AO3?
75
What’s your total AO3 word count?
238,592 (ooh I'mma celebrate when I hit a quarter million)
What fandoms do you write for?
mostly Star Wars! I wrote fic for some other fandoms early on but we don't talk about those
What are your top five fics by kudos?
your heartbeat's a countdown - crack fic in which the Jedi know the clones are a trap and try to avoid them at all costs
Necessary - a whumpy Voltron Klance fic I wrote after the first season (before the show went to hell)
their days are darker - in which Wolffe doesn't know how to drop anything and Fox is having the worst two days of his life
the broken-hearted rang their steeple bells - tropey Witcher kinkmeme fill that for some baffling reason has tons of kudos
exploitation, hesitation - short oneshot in which Fox assumes General Kenobi is just like his natborn superior officers and reacts accordingly
Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I used to reply to every single one (unless it was just emojis) but then I fell off and now I feel bad :( I read them all though! and they are so treasured! one day I will make it through the backlog
What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
ooh see despite writing a lot of angst, I almost always write happy endings, so maybe I'll take no gold, I'll take no silver (please read the tags on that one). maybe spit some blood at the camera is pretty sad too, actually
What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
all of them!! yayyyy! even if it's not spelled out, I usually resolve things because that's the world I want to live in! every fic is a fix-it fic
Do you get hate on fics?
not really, mostly just people asking when I'm going to finish, although I have seen people complaining that my version of Fox/Corries is banal and overdone which like yeah. I agree. but my brain won't let me move on.
Do you write smut? If so what kind?
hell yeah I do! I don't know what "what kind" means - I write characters fucking, never x reader and rarely OCs; and it's usually somewhat kinky because I just can't not
Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
I've written a few fusions/AUs - elysium is as far as to is a Gladiator AU, everyone wants a double feature is a Pacific Rim AU, and more human than human is a Bladerunner AU. but I've never done a straight-up crossover, although there are a few bouncing around in my brain (namely, the GAR joins the Decepticons and another where Boromir meets Rex and falls in love)
Have you ever had a fic stolen?
yeah I've had real problems with people plagiarizing fics, from lifting whole sections of dialogue to copying really specific scenes
Have you ever had a fic translated?
nope, but one got a podfic
Have you ever cowritten a fic before?
yeah I cowrote hold me like a grudge and sometimes a parrot talks (unfinished) with the fabulous @postapocalyptic-cryptic!
What’s your all-time favourite ship?
oh man. I love Quinlan/Fox to death. but I will admit that I was Stucky trash from the very beginning.
What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
ooh there's a lot. Mace/Fox fic, sometimes a parrot talks, deaged Corries, chroma...
What are your writing strengths?
hm. I don't know. I think I'm good at characterization and dialogue?
What are your writing weaknesses?
fukcin plot beyond "there is hurt and then there is comfort". and also explaining more about people's emotions, like, I know what they're feeling but I need to tell other people
Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I just use google translate, I'm sorry
First fandom you wrote for?
oh boy oh fuck. The first fandom I ever wrote for was Phantom of the Opera when I was in eighth grade. go ahead and laugh
Favourite fic you’ve ever written?
uhhh. aaa? um. probably unexplain the unforgivable, but I also really liked how a once and future sun turned out
no pressure tags for @postapocalyptic-cryptic @meerlichtz @milfmisspiggy @catboydogma @jaigeye

you've immediately intruiged me with twewy x atla au 👀
ask game
oh man theres some Stuff to this one so let me give the lowdown
neku is the avatar, duh. i dont remember much about atla lore but who cares im making shit up.
long story short its like, by the time of modern day the avatar is mainly a myth. a big reason why is bc theres been a concentrated effort to basically make firebenders die out (it was the next in the avatar cycle) so the avatar hasnt been seen in like forever (theres other reasons too but uhhh later).
neku is a firebender who's literally living every day being harassed by spirits no one else can see. mostly joshua, who's a spirit that makes it his personal mission lol. but like he is just going about his life being a firebender in a world where ppl really dont like firebenders. not to the point of like, extreme actions, but like one of my notes is that i need neku to experience a microaggression.
theres a lot of stuff going on in the background to why josh is there and also the inciting incident where fucking weird spirit monsters start doing weird spirit monster shit (the Noise make an appearance here). theres so much going on that if i want to ever actually get through writing this i cant say it here or the magic is gone
so uh take neku with his required animal companion
The bird that caused all of this shit now sits on Neku’s knee, looking awfully smug for a bird. 
“She wanted to see you, so I let her in,” Joshua says, not having moved an inch throughout the entire ordeal. 
“She?”
“The bird, Neku.” Joshua rolls his eyes. “You really ought to give her a name, too. It seems she’s claimed you after seeing your fire.”
“Claimed me?” Neku raises an eyebrow at him. He winces as his headache spikes. “What the hell does that even mean?”
“Um, Sakuraba?” Misaki’s face leans into his line of sight. “Who are you talking to?”
Joshua’s smirk grows wide as Neku freezes in place. “Uh,” Neku looks up at her. “The bird.”
“The… bird.” She gives him a pitying look. “Do you need to go to the nurse? You did hit your head pretty hard.”
“What? No—” Neku cuts himself off with a grimace as his headache flares up. 
“Yeah, you definitely need a nurse,” she decides. 
The bird, who hasn’t been getting as much attention as she wanted, chooses the moment to vocalize this. Loudly. 
“She wants you to name her,” Joshua unhelpfully translates. “Why haven’t you already?” 
Neku glances at the bird in question. “Why the hell would I do that? I’m not taking some random bird as a pet.”
Misaki looks back and forth between Neku and the general area Joshua’s in. “Are you sure you’re okay?”
“I’m fine.” He glares. “Stop asking.”

DND Night 1
genre. C, AU warnings. None w.c. 349 synopsis. Just a bunch of college students come together to play dnd for the first time.
Tumblr media
“Ok Steve, your turn. Character name and race with a little backstory,” you asked him from your position at the head of the dinning table. Since the others went before him, you took a moment to gather their spare character sheet for your DM file.
“Um, I’m not sure if I did it right but I tried and therefore you can’t fault me,” Steve stated before picking up his character sheet to read from.
“Alright Daniel Radcliff, spill it,” Nat joked from her spot next to you earning a chuckle from some members of the group, you included.
Steve cleared his throat in an attempt to stall before taking a centering breath. “I chose a human knight. He was a lowly stable boy in the kingdom of Brooksdale. He managed to become a squire with the help of the princess. Then he slowly made his way through the ranks until he became a Knight-Captain. Uhhh, heee, what did he do?” He questioned to himself, eyebrows furrowing as he got lost on the page.
“Oh! He and the princess had gotten close throughout his training that they even considered eloping. But word got to the king and had him banished from the kingdom. Now he’s wondering the land trying to get back to his lost princess.”
Appraisal was heard around the table as everyone enjoyed his character background.
“Good job, Stevie. Forbidden romances are always a nice touch. And you left it open-ended which could be good if we wanted to bring something from you past further along in the campaign. Now all I need is your spare character sheet and his full name.” you say reaching a hand out for the sheet you’ve asked for.
Steve became flustered in his seat as he stared at the name he’d written down.
“Uhh, it’s Knight-Captain A-m-u-r-e-k-a,” he spells out, refusing to meet anyone’s gaze.
Everyone took a moment to try to sound out what their friend had wrote.
“Am..? Amuree…?”
“Americ-”
.
.
.
“Oh my god”
“Jesus Christ”
“Are you serious??”
“Did you just name you goddamn character Knight-Captain America??”

a/n. We back??? ionno BUT I did lose my entire tag list from years ago, so here we are...

UM UM UM OKAY UHHH
tachitanihigugin (or whatever their ship name is) + body
or, if you want platonic, platonic lucy & margaret + ignite
or, gin & chuuya + mollify (okay now i'm just having fun with the vocab words lol)
n e ways ilyyyyyy
tanitachigugin + body, post-doa arc, junichirou joins the pm
Tanizaki cancels out his ability as the body hits the ground with a thump. Tachihara’s heart is still hammering in his chest, and he can still feel the glass shard that was pressed against his throat mere milliseconds prior.
Slowly, he lifts his fingers to his neck. They come away red.
He looks to Tanizaki, expecting— He’s not sure what, exactly. Horror. Regret. Revulsion. He’s spent his first few months in the mafia going out of his way to avoid directly killing anyone. But the only thing showing in his expression is pure, unfiltered, rage.
(Eerily reminiscent of his reaction when Naomi was threatened.)
In the blink of an eye, Gin is standing across from him, placing themself between him and Tanizaki. Concern plagues their expression, but they remain silent as they look him over. They’re joined shortly by Higuchi, who fusses over him and scolds him for not being more careful until Gin calms her down.
Tachihara filters most of it out. He’s still staring at Tanizaki.
“What was that?” he asks.
Tanizaki frowns. He wipes the blood from his knife with the sleeve of his sweater. Gin and Higuchi turn their focus to him as well, but he doesn’t falter as he slips the weapon back into its sheath. “I was just doing my job. Don’t think about it too hard.”
“But you don’t kill people?” Higuchi points out, her voice tilting upwards and turning it into a question.
“I never said that.” Tanizaki turns his back to them. “I was taught to search for other ways to handle my enemies, but if someone I ca— if someone is in danger, I have no qualms doing what needs to be done. Now let’s get out of here before their backup arrives.”
-
lucy & margaret, no abilities college au
“Is this…really a good idea?”
“Yes!” Lucy tosses another crumbled paper into the fire. “I hated this class and I’m going to celebrate the end of the semester by burning everything.”
Margaret frowns. She picks up the one textbook Lucy hasn’t ripped apart yet and flips through it. “What if you end up needing this stuff? And didn’t you rent this one?”
“Oh! That copy is actually Mark’s.” Lucy plucks the book from Margaret’s hands, then rips out several pages and adds them to the fire as well. “I turned mine back in already.”
“…But Mark rented his too?”
Lucy grins. “Sounds like his problem, not mine. Now are you going to make s’mores with me or not?”
-
chuuya & gin (& tachi) post-doa arc
“Woah woah woah!” Chuuya places themself between Gin and Tachihara. With a simple touch to both of them, they’re held back by gravity. “What the hell is going on here?!”
Gin, expectedly, doesn’t answer. They simply glare past Chuuya at Tachihara. If looks could kill…
Chuuya grimaces, then turns and raises an eyebrow at Tachihara.
“Don’t look at me!” he exclaims. “I didn’t do anything!”
Chuuya bites back a sigh. They pinch the bridge of their nose, trying to figure out the best way to deal with this situation. Gin has been…hostile towards Tachihara ever since the revelation that he was working with the Hunting Dogs. Chuuya can hardly blame them, and if it were their choice, they would have had him executed long ago. But Chuuya isn’t going to fight this battle against Mori because they simply don’t care that much.
They have half a mind to just let the two of them go at each other.
But that will result in a lecture from both Mori and Kouyou, and Chuuya doesn’t have time for that.
Maybe they should just drag the two back to the Black Lizard office and make Hirotsu deal with this.
