"Hey Y/N, uhhh-"
Wardlow sounding nervous? What was wrong now?
I was getting ready for his match because recently, Sammy Guevara was trying to come after the TNT title, AGAIN, and that pest Tay Conti kept on trying to interfere in their recent match. I was ending that tonight. But the tone of Wardlow's voice showed there was something more.
"Yes?" I turned around in my chair to face him, the seriousness was real:
"So, we're becoming a couple tonight after the match."
"Wha-" I choked on my words. Did he just say a COUPLE?! Does that mean-:
"After you take care of Tay, I'm going to murder Guevara, of course. And while leaving, we're going to announce the new relationship by kissing."
I needed someone to check my heart rate before I had a heart attack and collapsed. One thing I was good at was hiding my feelings and when it came to Wardlow? Didn't mind kissing him in the slightest. I had the biggest crush on him but like this?
Never did I expect things to go like this, really having to play cool when he looked down at me, seeing that I was a bit puzzled:
"If you're not okay with it, we can go talk to Tony or something."
"No, it's okay," I tried to smile, turning back around to finish my hair, "Someone has to shut up Tay and Sammy, am I right?"
"They won't wanna mess with us after this," Wardlow smiled back, offering a fist bump that I returned.
I wasn't going to be out there during the entire match, not till Tay shows her face, and in the meantime? I was near the guerrilla, pacing like all hell. Trying to play this out in my head like how were we going to kiss? Should I make it hot? What if Wardlow finds out that I actually like him.
Swimming in thoughts, it was nice to be put back into reality and get my hands dirty. Right as Wardlow was about to powerbomb Sammy, Tay ran out there, distracting the referee and Sammy was gouging at Wardlow's eyes.
Running down there, I hurried to yank Tay off of the apron, kicking her so hard that she went head first into the steel steps, then I picked her up and threw her into the other set, taking her out for good.
In the ring, the referee was trying to check on Wardlow and my eye spotted Sammy in the corner with the TNT title. Wasn't sure where he was going with this, but not like it mattered. Wardlow has a code word for when we trained together, sending it out so he knew to keep the referee's back turned a little longer, running up on the apron and yanking the title from Sammy, then smacking him in the face with it.
The time was perfect, right as I dropped to the ground, hiding the TNT title, the referee let Wardlow go, and here came the powerbombs. Sammy never stood a chance against Wardlow when it came to pure strength, Wardlow stepping on his chest to get the pin.
Watch Tay get up on her feet with a limp, I called for Wardlow at the end of the rampway, presenting his title to him and yelling at Tay:
"Better luck never, bitch!"
Wardlow was laughing at how fired up I was and when Tay was picking Sammy up off of the mat, both of their eyes set on us, this was our moment, starting off with another yell at Tay:
"You guys think you're the hottest couple? That you're the shit?!"
Laughing at them more, I jumped right up into Wardlow's arms, even with all of the anxiety, holding his face and kissing him.
My kiss was far from a fake one, the crowd's noise toned out in my mind for a moment, taking the time to kiss him with everything in me, really giving them all something to watch when I swirled my tongue in.
Wardlow was surely feeling it too, his arm growing tight around my waist, hand squeezing my hip with a slight shake and I naturally grinded against him, having to stop myself because I was beginning to drown in my own thoughts.
When we pulled away, there were bright smiles on our faces and when I stared into his eyes, there was something far more than an act there, knowing we were going to have a talk backstage, but he made sure to leave a few last words at Sammy and Tay, raising up his TNT title: 
"You two ain't got shit on us!"
"Losers!" I laughed, throwing up an L with my hand, hanging on to Wardlow while he made his way to the back, having me smiling harder and hiding my face while he kissed me one more time on stage with the crowd still losing their minds.
Just as I expected, Wardlow took us right back to the locker room and I tried to make small talk and avoid the realness that we felt earlier:
"The crowd really loved that, huh?"
"Wasn't just the crowd," Unlike me, he was cutting straight to the chase, "Tell me because you don't kiss a friend like how you kissed me out there."
"My adrenaline was really going," I chuckled slightly, dying down and trying to breathe before I ended up fainting, his hand caressing my chin softly and keeping my head up, putting me at an ease:
"Just tell me. You know that you can tell me anything."
"Maybe I got a little ahead of myself," I began to admit, having to look away with my knees growing weak, "I always liked you, Wardlow. Just didn't expect things to end up like this."
"Me either, but don't feel bad," Reconnecting our gaze, he already had me feeling better about all of this, knocking the wind out of me, "Because I could kiss you all night."
Never have I felt much the same, pressing my lips against his hard when he kissed me this time, needing to feel how real it was without the drama of wrestling around us. Those same feelings from the first time were there, much stronger and only growing stronger when he pulled the straps of his singlet down, throwing me up into his arms with my legs around his waist.
"Also, were you grinding against me earlier?" He recalled, trying to be a tease, but I dished that right back:
"And didn't you like it? You kissed me again right after."
"That should answer your question," He clearly gave way, whispering into his kiss, responding to the slow grinding that I began, "Wanna be grinding against something else?"
"Don't be saying words like that unless you really want to see something new from me," I bit his lip softly, gasping at the spank on my ass, his hand holding along:
"That's exactly what I want and I'm sure you want to see the same from me."
"Hell yeah that's what I want," Jumping down, I was ready to go, beginning to kick my way out of my shoes, tights, and panties, getting stuck on the view of Wardlow's incredible body, defined from head to toe and just that mass of his everything.
I was out of it and got a little dizzy when I got flung around and bent over the couch, raising my right leg up to the top so he could have the perfect angle, not afraid to show some of the things he liked while taking a handful of my hair and I recalled:
"What happened to grinding?"
Just to see what he would say, I back onto his hard-on slowly, rubbing myself against him and humming at the feeling, then panting some when he pulled my head back to whisper:
"I was thinking and I couldn't help but do what I was imagining."
"What's that exactly?" I looked back just to close my eyes, moaning at his cock stretching me far, reaching a high pitch when he pulled my hip back and thrusted into me hard at the same time, feeling the entire shake through my body.
Not answering me just yet, instead feeding more thrusts that increased his pace, I could just tell what he wanted. Once adjusted, I pushed myself to more salacious moans, but threw myself back into his thrusts, feeling his hand take more of my hair, how he stopped for a moment to enjoy it.
"That what you want, big daddy?" I toyed, smirking at him from the side, needing to learn more as he growled:
"Better watch calling me that."
"What?" I breathed in, feeling his tension and knowing I'd be in store for something when I played around more, "That make you feel some kind of way, Daddy?"
"That's how you end up with a limp," His hand latched around my throat, having me gasping and my words awakening something in him.
"F-F-uck," The more I tried to pant, the woozier I became, his cock becoming ruthless and smacking as deep as possible and into my sweet spot, legs shaking and my eyes in the back of my head, "W-War-"
"What was that?" He loosened his grip but still kept his hand around my throat to let me get the air I desperately needed, but more focused on the words he knew were soon to come.
"Wardlow!" I gasped, inhaling deep and trying to keep myself from collapsing, the coil of heat in my core making my walls clench hard and about breaking me in two as if Wardlow didn't do that already, "I-ah fuck!"
If all of that power in him wasn't enough, he kept my raised leg in his free hand, having my entire upper body standing with just his hand around my throat, hips still thrusting his cock into me with the same speed and friction that had me nearly screaming.
"You can tell me, can't you?" He just had to keep playing with me while I was so out of my mind and so close to what seemed like an infinite bliss, getting driven closer with his slight yanks of my body down onto his cock, "I know-"
"Damn, Wardlow! That's gonna make me cum!" That sudden scream came from nowhere, growing more frantic and biting my lip, throwing my head back with one more, "I am cuming, Wardlow!"
Letting go of my throat and keeping me upright in his arm helped me relax more after the earthquake-like trembles radiated out of me, a gush against his cock having me go limp for a moment, only able to breathe.
"I know I said You'd end up with a limp, but-"
"Wardlow, shut up," I had to laugh at that one, making him laugh more when I dropped back into his arms again, "Damn, you fucked me up."
He had to laugh at me too, making me feel better with a kiss on my cheek, "I'll remember to take it a little easier next time for my girl."
"Your girl?" I looked quickly into his eyes, nearly fainting this time when he offered:
"We both know how we feel. You want to be a real couple? Be my girl?"
"Wardlow," I cooed with massive heat in my cheeks, turning softly to hug his head, "Guess we really are the hottest couple, now."
Seeing him smile made me so happy, hugging me back and agreeing along with me:
"The world won't be able to handle us two."

hq boys as the crimes they’d commit
warnings: CRIMES, crackfic, probably many typos idk i’m so tired lmaooo, cursing, drinking ??? idfk 😩💦
an: and i did this for what?? inspired by hq hcs royalty @sugardaddykenma @hina-wit-da-glock (AJSKSJ SORRY FOR TAGGING Y’ALL IF YOU SEE THIS, IT IS DEF NOT UP TO PAR W Y’ALLS WORKS ILY)
Tumblr media
karasuno
sawamura daichi- insurance fraud!! somehow this is such a dad crime to commit?? dadchi didn’t try (dumb excuse, how do you accidentally commit insurance fraud smh) to commit insurance fraud but at one point in his late-thirties, he was very very broke and was already working as much as possible so, he decided to fake an ankle injury, as you do, and filed a bunch of claims which made him bank. daichi kept doing it until he was able to quit one of his jobs and buy himself a really nice suit and a rolex (uhhh 🥵). he somehow never got caught tho and to this day, none of his friends know how he was able to afford a tesla on a cop’s salary (sorry daichi but acab 😔✨)
sugawara kōshi- child abandonment!! ok you can try and fight me on this but i feel in my bones that suga absolutely despises children. he can tolerate ages 10+ but anything younger than that, he will punt them into the next dimension. the thing is, people just assume he likes kids because of how good he is with his team which is why his aunt begged him to babysit his nephew taro. taro was being an absolute brat when suga took him out for the day and he was 👉👈 this close to snapping. he put taro down for like 3 seconds to pay for their ice cream and when he turned back, the demon spawn was gone. he panicked, running around the park looking for taro when it turns out, taro was just bent down behind the bench. some random karen called the police and suga has never craved murder more.
nishinoya yuu- arson!! you CANNOT tell me nishinoya doesn’t have a ~murder~ playlist that he listens to to get himself hype (me too noya, me too). one night, he got a lil too hype listening to start a riot by duckwrth and watching demolition videos on youtube. he snuck out of his house to an empty shed like 30 minutes away and maybe... lit it on fire while genocide by lil darkie played on a speaker nearby. what he did NOT anticipate was the absolute size of the fire so he freaked out and called the firefighters who promptly called the police. he didn’t want to get grounded so he called daichi to bail him out. daichi still told noya’s parents 😔.
tanaka ryūnosuke- vandalism!! tanaka had been on alt tiktok and saw a group of cool friends spray painting an abandoned building. he thought “that’s cool, lemme do that!” but then he realized he had no friends (AHDGS JK I LOVE TANAKA). he asked nishinoya who was grounded from the arson incident and he knew he definitely couldn’t ask daichi, suga, asahi, or enoshita so he decided to go it alone. that proved to be a MASSIVE mistake. he got the supplies, arrived to the building of his choice (thanks saeko :3), and decided to spray paint a huge p3ni5 in bright red paint. he finished “successfully” and zoomed back home. what he didn’t realize with his two-and-a-half braincells is that he signed his glorious piece with his full name. the cops were at his house the next morning...🧍
hinata shoyō- forgery!! hinata did NOT think that forgery was even a crime. how was he supposed to know that he wasn’t allowed to copy his mom’s signature on a permission form! all he wanted was to go to an overnight training camp 😿
kageyama tobio- attempted murder!! kageyama swears it sounds worse than was and he is absolutely incorrect. what happened was so much worse. he and hinata were having a competition to see who could hold their breath the longest underwater (you can’t tell me they haven’t done some dumbass shit like this) and kageyma lost almost instantly (he has the tiny lungs of an asthmatic). he didn’t want hinata to notice so he held hinata’s head under the water for like 10 seconds. suga walked in though, saw hinata thrashing around in the water and immediately called the police. kageyama never forgave him.
tsukishima kei- cyberbullying!! first of all, i had no idea you could get arrested for cyber bullying!? that being said, neither did tsukishima who spent 80% of his time making fun of people online (and on his real account!! bold). eventually one of the people he bullied (hinata) reported him on instagram and his very lame account was deleted (pls don’t bully people online 😤).
yamaguchi tadashi- shoplifting!! andjksh this is so funny because this scenario has happened to me and i can just SEE this happening to poor tadashi. yamaguchi gets super late night cravings (and usually tsukki will walk with him at like 3 am 🥺 nEWAYS) so he’ll sneak out and walk to the mini-mart near his house. one night, he was so tired but also super hungry so he went onto his nightly routine and basically sleepwalked into the store. he picked out his favorite chips and candy bar (which are sour cream&onion lays and milky ways in case you were wondering 😌✨) and just... walked out the store without paying. the store clerk was mysteriously missing so yamaguchi made it all the way home, ate half the bag of chips and passed out without realizing what he’d done. once he did, he cried for 2 hours straight.
nekoma
kuroo tetsurō- telemarketing fraud!! kuroo originally did telemarketing fraud as a joke?? like he was trying to prank call someone pretending that they had lost their information and they actually gave it to him??? he was mildly concerned but even more excited. he did it over and over again but he never used the info for anything. to this day, kuroo literally has a notebook full of credit card numbers and bank account passwords but he refuses to use it because he believes it’s ✨wrong✨(but it isn’t wrong to take all that information in the first place under false pretenses, not realizing that once people find out, they are forced to close credit cards and accounts but go off self righteous king). once he brought the book up to kenma and he offered to sell it on the dark web. now kuroo feels less bad about what he’s done! :D
kozume kenma- computer crime!! pfttt this one seems kinda obvious but what do you expect from kenma :). he spends so much time on the internet, he’s definitely picked up some less than legal skills that still help him now 👀. kenma did little mini crimes like getting into other people’s wifi but his crowning achievement was when he hacked into the minneapolis pd website and had it so when you opened the page, a black lives matter screen came up. he never told anyone that it was him who did it but he thinks it’s the best he’s ever done.
yaku morisuke- racketeering!! yaku, the feral king, ran an underground gambling ring in the basement of nekoma (do they have basements?? who knows! i don’t!) during his third year. the only reason it didn’t get shut down was because coach nekomata took a portion of yaku’s profits whenever he won (which was literally all the time). everyone on the team has lost money to him which is why they never play with him anymore. they won’t even let yaku play monopoly 😔.
haiba lev- indecent exposure!! poor lev’s head is so empty, he tends to fall for whatever pranks his senpai’s do to him. this time kuroo had somehow convinced him that in order to grow his schlong, he had to run outside naked for 10 minutes because the moonlight had special growing properties. lev was a lil scared ngl because he was already superrr tall and didn’t need to grow his height (or his dick ((boy is hung)) but poor lev is insecure) but he did it anyway. long story short, an old woman saw him parading around the neighborhood naked and called el policia. 0/10 dick did NOT grow and had to spend a night in jail naked 😿
aoba johsai
oikawa tōru- prostitution!! KAKKAKA iwazumi made fun of oikawa for being so shitty and said that he couldn’t pick up anyone if he tried. flattykawa took this as a personal challenge and went out onto the street, asking people if they’d have sex with him. with the way he was asking (and the way he was dressed), people assumed he was a paid w h o r e and someone eventually reported him. iwazumi had to pick oikawa up from the station- he never let him live this one down.
iwaizumi hajime- battery!! it wasn’t technically battery but oikawa is a lil bitch and overreacts (at least in his words -_-). the amount of times iwa-chan has beat the absolute shit out of oikawa is uNREAL. he just can’t handle the stupidity sometimes so he just smacks the crap outta him. not for real for real but the way oikawa reacts, you’d think a murder was occurring. one time, shittykawa screeched so loud, they got a noise complaint -_- hajime hates it in these streets.
matsukawa issei & hanamaki takahiro- conspiracy!! issei and hiro have a secret blog where they discuss conspiracy theories and such but one day, hiro found an article that explained how jfk’s death was an inside job. he sent it to issei who began to theorize how HE’D do it. that devolved into a massive thread on their blog of how’d they murder a president which blew up and caught the attention of the cia who sent the a letter telling them to quietly delete the blog. they did because they were terrified but they kept the letter and now it’s framed in issei’s apartment.
kyōtani kentarō- assault!! baby is an angry little boy but for all the right reasons. he was at a bar (when he’s all grown up, duh) and he spotted an absolute drunk creep hitting on a girl who clearlyyyy did not reciprocate his feelings. kyōtani, being the respectful king that he is, went over to the guy, pulled him by the jacket and beat. the. shit. out of him. while the bartender was happy with the fact that the creep was out, he was not impressed with the damage to his bar. he just sent kyōtani out who casually adjusted his leather jacket and rings, and hopped on his motorcycle to ride away into the night. i am the FATTEST simp for this man ONG 🥴
shiratorizawa
ushijima wakatoshi- stalking!! poor ushijima has no idea how intimidating he can be. he was on a train late at night after practice and the woman sitting across from him left her purse sitting on the seat. being the gentleman that he is, he took the purse and followed her to return it. the only problem is that the closer he got, the faster she ran and when he tried to speak (yknow with his scary, deep, baritone voice), the woman screeched and called the cops on him because he was a “strange, big man who was following her home.” when the police showed up, ushijima was painfully confused and just held up this tiny ass purse in his massive hands. the cops laughed.
tendō satori- ???!! no one knows what crimes (or how many 😳) tendō has committed but each of his teammates have different ideas- ushijima: “i don’t believe tendou is capable of committing any sort of felony. well, maybe murder”; semi: “of COURSE he’s capable of crimes??! do you know how many times i’ve seen him come into the dorm with a suspicious stain of red on his sweater?? *shudders* if i end up dead, tendō did it...” in actuality, the only crime tendō has committed is ~drugs~ but he’s not bouta tell his friends that.
goshiki tsutomu- would be a VICTIM!! my baby tsutomu would NEVER commit a crime!!! i love this man with my everything and the only crime he’s committed is being too damn cute 😤🥺

Finding You (Part Five of ??)
Good morning/afternoon/even/night (which ever one applies to you)! I have another update for you guys! If you’re just joining us, the link to Part One will be down below. You can find the links to the next part at the end of each part (if something is wonky with the links, please just let me know!)
Part 1 
F!Mc / Satan
Tags :D :  @simpingforsatan @naimena @hachimochi @wrathandgreed 
Word Count: 2,083 (story under cut)
Triggers or warnings: angst
Satan growled as he redid his bowtie once again, Lucifer’s words still echoing in his head.
“Are you sure you need to go tonight?” Lucifer was standing on the ground floor of his room, while Satan got ready on the landing at the top of the stairs.
“Yes. How many times are you going to ask me that?”
“I don’t know if it’s a good idea for you to go opening night.”
Satan hoped Lucifer could hear his eye roll, “I can’t imagine why, unless the fact the artist is an angel has your panties in a twist,” the indignant noise Lucifer couldn’t contain made Satan snicker quietly.
“That isn’t the problem.”
“Then what is? You have never had issues with me going to an art show before. I heard Lord Diavolo will be there, so I can’t begin to imagine why I shouldn’t go.”
“Why do you want to go?”
Satan walked all the way over to the railing to give his brother an incredulous look, “Did you seriously just ask me that?” Lucifer took a stance that meant he wanted an answer, making Satan sigh, “Well, why wouldn’t I? I’ve heard about her art in the human realm. I haven’t been able to see any of her works unfortunately, but I’ve read the reviews. If nothing else, I want to say I was at the opening night of the first art show for one of the Celestial Realm’s up and coming artists, which you know doesn’t happen very often. The last angel I can think of who received any mark of recognition for their work outside of the Celestial Realm is Simeon.
“I also think it’s important at least one of us brothers attends the show, which I figured you’d agree with. You’re constantly going on and on about how important our image is and how we need to make sure to ‘understand the gravity of our positions down here as demon lords and as the Avatar’s of Sin’. You’ve already stated you won’t be going, and I have been planning on attending since I heard about it. I really don’t see what the problem is.”
Satan saw a flicker of worry cross Lucifer’s face multiple times while he was talking. He must really not want me to go. But why?
“And you’ve made sure none of our brothers can go with you?”
“Yes. In fact, I’ve asked Levi twice and had a soda bottle thrown at my head the second time for “making him lose the level he was on. I asked both Beel and Belphie three times, which they both declined, Beel stating he would rather stay home because they never had enough food at show openings and Belphie saying he didn’t want to get thrown out of one again for curling up in a statue to sleep. Asmo would come, but he got invited to some party the same night.”
“... What about Mammon?”
Satan blinked a couple times before his brain even began to process what Lucifer had asked, “Huh?”
Lucifer seemed to blink himself, though it could’ve been a trick of the light, “You didn’t mention Mammon.”
Satan opened and closed his mouth a couple times before being able to respond, “You want me. To ask Mammon. The Avatar of Greed. Who steals. And is loud. And uncouth. To go to the opening night of an art exhibition. For an up and coming artist. Who has never shown in the Devildom before. And is an angel… Do I have that correct?”
Lucifer’s resolve looked to be in tatters, and Satan thought he’d drop the whole thing before his resolve returned, “Yes.”
Damn pride.
“You must be joking.”
“If you don’t ask him, I will personally assign him to go with you.”
Satan really couldn’t believe his ears, “Assign him to go with me? Do I look like I’m nine? I do not need a chaperone. I-” the look in Lucifer’s eyes made him stop mid-argument. Is he really that worried?
“Fine, I’ll text him if you’re going to be so insistent. I will only ask once however, and if he does come, I am NOT responsible for his behavior.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“I’ve never been ta a art… Whas it called again?”
“And art exhibition.”
“Right, right. Thanks for invitin’ me Satan.”
“Mammon, we need to go over some ground rules here.”
“Course. Whadda ya wanna talk about?”
“First thing, art exhibitions are places of class and refinement. Please, stay quiet and respectful of the atmosphere.”
“Course I’ll do tha’. I’m great at blendin’ into the backgroun’.”
Satan cringed, but continued, “Second, if you steal anything from anyone, I will personally see to it that you are ejected from the show, and thrown into the labyrinth below Diavolo’s castle.”
“OI! Show ya big brother some respect!”
“We are not getting out of this vehicle until you promise me you’re not going to steal or otherwise take things that don’t belong to you.”
“Fine, fine! I promise. Geeze.”
“Third, just please don’t embarrass me. I sent you that page on gallery etiquette for a reason.”
“I read it, don’ worry… Uhhh, Satan. Not to change the subject, but why da ya have a long tie on, an’ not ya bowtie?”
“I… felt like it.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Satan was extremely suspicious. They had been at the show for over twenty minutes, and Mammon had been better behaved than he’d ever seen him before. He’d even made fairly intelligent remarks about the art. He hadn’t left Satan’s side, but had been quiet enough Satan had forgotten he was there multiple times. Lucifer would’ve been more conspicuous. Satan kept expecting to have to reprimand him, but the time never came.
The gallery space was very large, one that was reserved for shows the demon prince hand picked. The space was set up like a labyrinth, and each bend had something new to display. The center of the show held a large, site specific installation. The art itself was very good, better than what Satan had assumed he’d see, but what really struck him was the breadth of the work. He marveled at how one person could produce so much art and in such varying mediums.
“Enjoying the work?” a random demon drawled, sidling up next to him.
“Yes,” he replied, taking a step back.
“You know, there’s a dead end just around the corner. The art in there is extremely… Exciting. I can show you, if you’d like,” the demon closed the space he had created, and reached out, their hand lightly grazing his arm.
“I’m fine where I’m at, thanks.” Satan started to walk away, and an exasperated sigh followed.
“I’m not sure you understand. The art is extremely stimulating. I really think you’ll enjoy it,” a hand was now grasping his arm.
“I said no,” Satan stated, extracting his arm from their grasp.
“Oi! Satan! You gotta come see this photograph,” Mammon interrupted the exchange, his loud behavior back, but eyes keenly trained on the unwelcome newcomer.
A strangled gasp came from the demon, eyes growing large, “Ah, hello Mammon,” another gasp and an audible step back, “Lead the way. Excuse me.”
The second born started rambling, but got quieter the further from the demon they got, until they both fell into silence. “Thank you,” Satan acquiesced finally.
“No need for my brother ta have ta deal with that,” Mammon said softly. Satan didn’t push any further, them both saying what they needed to.
The continued walking for another while, when the soft music that had been playing overhead was replaced with a voice, “I would like to thank you all for coming out to Jane Doe’s exhibition. As all of you know this is her first show in the Devildom, and I am so pleased at the turnout. As much as we’d love to have you all here at the center with us, but we hope that putting the artist talk over the loud speakers will be enough for all of you still in the labyrinth.”
“Jane Doe? Ain’t that wha’ they call dead humans?” Mammon asked, talking over Diavolo.
“Well, often it’s used for unidentified female human bodies to be specific, usually a murder victim. The use is mostly as a placeholder for unidentified, anonymous or hypothetical parties to a court case in some human countries. An obvious pseudonym, and one I find rather amusing and clever. I’m rather put out we’re still in the maze. I was hoping to be at the center by now. I guess this will have to do. It’s really smart to-” Satan stopped, his eyes growing huge and intense.
“Ya okay?” Mammon asked uncomfortably.
“Shhhhhh!��” Satan demanded, his ears now only trained on the voice above him. He could’ve sworn he heard…
“... And of course, I had to see if she would hold a show here in the Devildom. I’m just so excited to finally have her art down here. Anyways, I’ve taken up enough of her time. Everyone, please welcome, Jane Doe.”
“Thank you Lord Diavolo. That was such a kind introduction. I for one am so excited to have been invited to show my work…”
Satan was moving before he knew what he was doing.
“Oi, Satan, wait fer me!”
“Then move faster!” Satan called behind him, starting to run. He had no idea where he was going though. He wasn’t good with directions at the best of times, and this was meant to confuse him. Mammon caught up with him quickly, seeming very conflicted.
“Mammon, you’re better at directions than I am aren't you? Get us to the center of the maze, now!”
“Bro, I don’ think I can-”
“Are you deaf?! Did you not hear her? That’s Mc! I need to get to her, now!” Mammon didn’t seem surprised at the revelation, instead looking a little sad. Satan felt his anger flare as the realization hit him, “You knew, didn’t you?”
“Only cuz Lucifer told me, an’ that was earlier this evenin’. He wanted to make sure someone was aroun’ ta keep ya from goin’ crazy.”
Satan quickened his pace, his anger lending him more speed, “Of course he knew about this and didn’t tell me.”
“He was watchin’ out fer ya.”
“I don’t care what he thought I was doing. Now, are you going to help me or not?”
Mammon looked extremely conflicted, but eventually burst into demon form and flew up to see over the walls. Many demons were aghast at seeing someone flying in the gallery, it being against etiquette, but Satan didn’t care at the moment.
Mammon started flying forward, and Satan followed, only looking down enough to make sure he wasn’t going to crash into an art piece. That did not account for other demons however, and many indignant cries and shouts followed him.
“We’re pretty close ta the center Satan,” Mammon called down.
“I’ve always thought…” Mc continued, but Satan couldn’t focus on the words. He could only marvel at her voice once again in his ears and focus on going as fast as he could. Her laugh rang out, and Satan’s heart jumped. It’d been so long... 
“Hmmm… What was that? Oh, okay. I didn’t realize I’d been talking for so long. Apparently my time is up, but I’ll finish this up on Devilgram. You can find me at...”
“Quicker!” Satan shouted to Mammon after hearing Mc.
“We’re not gunna make it,” Mammon yelled back down.
“We need to go faster then!”
“I’m followin’ ya pace! If ya wanna go faster, you gotta go faster.”
Satan finally relented, and switched into his demon form. With his new power, Satan moved faster and Mammon matched his pace.
“It’s the next bend!”
Satan threw everything he had into covering the final distance of the hallway. He rounded the bend to find…
People milling about, discussing the talk, some extremely confused as to why it had been cut short. Satan looked on the stage, carefully crafted into the installation piece. Nothing. They were even removing the podium.
He sank to the floor, breathing heavily. Mammon touched down beside him, not wanting to bring attention to himself.
“Is she in the Devildom for long?”
“I dunno.”
“Where is she staying?”
“I dunno.”
“How close were we?”
“Real close.”
“Did you see a way out? I’m going to start breaking things if we stay here.”
“There’s a underground passage in the room,” Mammon held out his hand to Satan, who took it, not looking at him.
“Let’s go then.”

I've been working on my new wip a bit and wanted to post the unedited version to see if its worth committing to rn or if I should wait a bit
Huge trigger warning (They'll be all in the tags) but it's also missing a few parts so bare with me
Tonks looked down at the picture, the pale man had blood dripping from his nose, leaking from his mouth, eyes blood strained. 
"Harry, it happened again" she shoved the file into his hands. He flipped through it, looking at the torched body, deep cuts ripped black robes, blood pooled underneath him, Harry was far too comfortable with the scene. Throwing the file onto the pile of similar murders he rubbed his head. 
"Again?" Harry glanced at the pile, a high stack of grotesque pictures nearly toppling over, unsettling papers sticking out.
"Yah'' she sighed, this was the 16th poisoning ever since Voldemort's defeat. All people found the same way cases seemingly unrelated, it seems like his death brought the worst out in people. Attacks where becoming more frequent, suicide rates shot up and serial killers running lose. There wasn't enough people in the whole ministry to help build their world back together
"Got any leads on the stabbings" she picked up another file, thinner then the others but deaths just as violent. 
"Yes actually!" Harry smiled "er well it's kind of a lead anyway but we discovered that it's not a spell that's doing the killing and whatever is being used is tainted with dark magic, like dark dark magic." He finished up, most dark objects were being confiscated but if they could trace the magic they could find the object and the owner! 
"That's brilliant, keep it up and maybe we can put away one of these nut cases" Tonks said, relieved to finally have some good news. The war might've ended 6 months ago but it hadn't stopped the death eaters from fighting, people were still going missing, being kidnapped, killed. Last month they put away Fenrir for trafficking magical creatures, selling werewolves and seers to god knows who for god knows what. Harry picked up his file, tired eyes scanning the sheets looking for answers he gave a big yawn before turning to the next page
"You can go home you know" Tonks politely took the file from his hands, she occasionally caught Harry sleeping in her office and was getting concerned. 
"No, there's too much work to be done" Harry picked up the previous file, turning the pages but not looking at the pictures. 
"Hermione's not there, it gets kinda lonely you know? She's busy reading journals from last week's raid but lots of them are burnt up. She wants the piece together what she can, I mean she thinks it's some kind of dark magic they are talking about. Hey maybe it's the same magic that's in my victims!" Harry shot up, throwing the file back into Tonks desk and taking his, 
"I'm going to go see her" he got up. "Coming with? It might say something about your victims too" Harry opened the door, waiting for Tonks to leave. 
"Sure, whatever I can take" she looked at her watch "shit i'm going to be late! Sorry Harry but I'm going to have to take you up on that offer later, I have another meeting" she smiled rolling her eyes, being head of the Auras was hard on her but before Moody died he put in a request for her to be trained as his successor. 
"Ill catch you later then!" Harry waved, running off, Tonks watched him disappear into the crowd. Harry had been a big help in putting away the death eaters, Hermione as well, but they were just children and would soon burn out. Tonks shook her head, a smile still on her face and both kids would do anything to help. Looking back at her watch she swore, swinging her office door shut and making way to her next meeting. 
Rushing along the corridors she looked at the wanted pictures on the wall, most faces of death eaters others who used the war for exploitation. One face always stood out, the young rosy cheeks stood out against the hardened faces, the innocent life vivid in his eyes. She tried to keep Ron off the wanted wall for as long as she could, keeping him with the missing persons, alongside her friends and family but after a while and debate he was slapped into the wanted side, poster saying "traitor, found dead or alive." 
"Oh excuse me! Uhhh- of- oh hi Tonks'' someone ran headfirst into Tonks, making them both fall. 
"Hey Hermione'' Tonks picked the bushy haired girl off of her. Hermione scrambled, grabbing the fallen papers and tucking them back into her arms ``you know Harrys looking for you" she handed Hermione some papers, ink slightly smudged. 
"Oh really? Good I need to talk to him, in some of the books I found the mentions of horcruxes and I think somebody was doing experiments with them, it kept mentioning the " devils fire" and " the others" I don't really know what it means but Harry has destroyed more then me so he's the experts." She said in one breath, eyes wide and full of curiosity. Her hair bounced down her back, papers slowly slipping out of her arms. "I'll catch you later okay?" She smiled, starting to walk off. "I gotta go talk with Harry" her voice waved as she noticed the picture of Ron. His disappearance hit her hard, she could barely go to the burrow neverminded talk the other Weasleys but she was slowly healing, she was even going over for dinner on Sunday. Remembering her previous task she ran off, being late for her meeting. 
.
"Did you find my baby?" Miss Chang ran up to her, hope in her eyes. Tonks barely has walked into the door before the sad lady interrogates her. 
"Miss if you'd sit down?" She gestured to the couch. She hated this part of her job but no one else was willing to do it. 
"But did you find her?" She clung to Tonks robes as she guided her to her seat. "You found her right? My babys okay?" Tears welled in her eyes,
"We are following up on some leads today, I promise I'll let you know what happens okay?" Tonks tried to reassure the crying woman, she has had far too many "meetings' ' with grieving families and just once wanted to give somebody good news. Cho went missing in february, snatched away from her bed no one knew who took her or where she went but because they never found a body they are going off the motion that she's still alive, even if the chances are slim. 
.
"Sorry I'm late" Tonks sat down at the head of the table, two auras where waiting for her full aura gear, ready to go out.
"Where are we heading off too?" He asked
"I got note of an abandoned death eater hideout, it was mostly used in the first war and was used for transporting hostages in the second. Cho was moved and I believe there might be evidence there, if not for her for somebody." Tonks said in a breath, anxious for her mission.
.
The door creaked open, noisily scratching against the concrete floor. It echoed throughout the room, a dim light lit up a cell, blood soaking the floor beside it. A table sat beside the cell, blood dripped off of it, an axe and blood soaked chains draped over each other 
"Hey boys!" Tonks froze where she stood, the voice came from the cell, sounding familiar. 
"Aura Tonks show yourself" she announced,  standing up straighter. Hearing the rattling of chains she stepped forward, coming closer to the cell but keeping her distance. The man shook the door, proving it was locked and rested his hands on the bars, pale skin was covered in blood, it dripped off his long fingertips, falling into the huge pool underneath, dirt matted the parts of his arms that weren't covered in blood, building up under long fingernails. Tentatively making her way over she noticed the man moved, hearing the chains clanking around, 
"Are you coming?" He mocked her, the chains moved again, clanking against one another. Angry she marched forward, and held tightly in her hand wanting to tell off this man for mocking her, but the sight she saw surprised her. 
There he was, thick red hair,  bright blue eyes, well over 6ft and silvery scars wrapping around his arm was Ron Weasley. 
"Took you long enough" he spoke to the ceiling, he was lying on his back, legs raised up against the fall and arms folded under his head. Thick chains clasped around his wrist, connecting to the ground, he laid in a pool of blood, it coated the back of his head, drenching his dirty hair. He looked as if he hadn't taken a bath in weeks, hair covered in dirt making it black, his clothes hung from him, sticking to his body and smelling of sweat, his legs where exposed, all he had on was a pair of shorts, clearly the rest of the jean had been torn off, his bright freckles were invisible under the brown and red, large purple bruises covered his skin, cuts and scrapes alongside them. 
He's been considered missing, no one really knows the true date he disappeared but he hadn't been seen since he left Harry and Hermione

the fall part sixteen - the calm
basic summary: chase gets his kids for the weekend. anti makes three mistakes. some other stuff happens. this entire chapter is a disjointed mess and i am sorry.
trigger warnings: murder, blood, unwanted touch
tagslist: @synonymsforzombie @spicydanhowell @skyewardlight   @dreaming-of-stories-and-stars @cest-mellow @graveyardlettuce @lower-your-expectationss
a dialing tone had never sounded so scary in all of chase's life.
by the time lucas picked up, he was sweating nervously, gripping the steering wheel of his car tightly with white fingers. he wasn't driving yet; just sitting in the car park outside the flats awkwardly, glaring at his reflection in the rearview mirror. he stuck his tongue out at himself as the tone clicked a voice came from the other end. "chase?"
chase immediately started talking. "hi, sorry, fuck, i didn't mean to stand you up, i swear on my life i didn't, i just - i - i got really distracted and i - i don't think properly sometimes, i am so so so so sorry -"
"it's fine," lucas interrupted. he sounded tired. "you don't have to apologize."
"but i do!" chase despaired, and leaned forward to knock his forehead against the wheel. "i'm so sorry, i - i didn't mean to forget, and i should have called you last night but i was in a bit of a state and i don't know what happened." he hesitated. "i'm not trying to - to make you forgive me or anything, cause obviously you don't have to, but i've… been stressed. i guess it's messing with my head. and i did want to meet up with you, i did. i swear."
there was a moment of silence, during which the ocean of chase's self hatred grew and he gave a small shuddering sigh, pulling the phone away from his face so lucas wouldn't hear. then, in a quiet voice, lucas said "what did you want to meet me for anyway?"
chase swallowed, scratching the back of his head beneath his hat. a car drove by his, and he watched it go, trying to think. "to - ironically, it was to apologize in person for freaking out on you like that," he said with a slight laugh. "i suppose i have more to apologize for now."
lucas paused. "how were you planning to apologize?"
a smile broke chase's lips. "well, i was going to buy us gregg's and a coffee or tea or something, and then i was gonna walk down the high street and give you the apology speech i had prepared, and then you were either gonna forgive me or throw your drink at my head and walk away."
lucas laughed loudly, a deep hearty burst of surprised warmth. chase found himself grinning at the sound. "chase, there wasn't much to apologize for," lucas chuckled. "you were panicking over something in a public space and you wanted to get away. i can understand that, i can. you don't have to tell me what set you off, and you don't have to try and justify not sticking around. i only wish you would have told me where you were going or let me drive you home or - or something. i was worried."
something swelled in chase's chest. "you're not mad?"
"i was a little miffed you stood me up, but i honestly can't stay mad at you too long," lucas said. chase could hear his smile on the other end of the line. "you're definitely under a lot of mental stress, considering the - everything that's been going on lately. but don't worry about it, k? you don't need more to stress over."
"let me make it up to you," chase said. "i'm - actually going to pick up my kids right now, but i'd like to see you sometime soon. to, uh. buy us gregg's." the peak of romance indeed, chase thought, then immediately squashed that thought as far down as he could in his mind and mentally hit it with a mallet. now was not the time to think about that. he turned the car key, waiting for the engine to start. "if that would be ok?"
"i - of course!" lucas exclaimed. "i'd love to, honestly. that sounds… that sounds fun."
chase's car wasn't starting. he turned the key again, listening to the coughing, spluttering sounds the car was making. he heard lucas speak up again. "uhhh… are those noises your car?"
"mm-hmm," chase grunted, practically kicking the brake pedal. "it's not - fucking - working. i swear to god, i cannot do this right now, ugh…"
lucas sounded almost amused. "well then, i suppose it's a good thing you're on a call with the professional chauffeur of hecate, am i right?"
chase's heart skipped. "you - you don't have to do that," he said weakly. the car made another rough wheezing sound, and chase hissed through his teeth. stacy would kill him if he was late, and while he could maybe take a bus, louise got anxious on public transport and he didn't want that for her. "my kids are a bit ridiculous sometimes, and i - are you sure?"
"absolutely!" lucas said certainly. something jingled on his end of the line. "i'll drive right over to yours to pick you up. what's the address we're going to?"
chase told him. "cool," lucas said. "see you in like, ten minutes. g'bye."
chase sighed and got out of the car, gently kicking the side of it before heading back inside. henrik was in the kitchen drying dishes. "did stacy call?" he frowned. chase shook his head, tossing his keys onto the shelf next to the door.
"car's bust. lucas is picking me up. i know, i thought he was gonna fucking hate me after yesterday." he winced. "ok, i should practice not swearing if i'm getting the kids, shouldn't i."
henrik raised an eyebrow. "ok, alright. what's wrong with the car?"
"it's not fucking - it's not fudging starting," he said, plopping down at the kitchen table. henrik snickered, and chase flipped him off. "fudge off. i'll cuss you out later, i swear."
"remember when you never used to swear cause you trained yourself out of it?" henrik grinned. "ah, good memories. let's go back to those times." he caught the look on chase's face and laughed. "oh, don't look so outraged. what are you going to do, call me a poopy head?"
they bickered for the following ten minutes, until they heard a car drive up outside and chase paled. "shit," he gasped, forgetting his no-swear rule in an instant. "ah, shit, i can't do this."
henrik clapped a hand to chase's shoulder, looking him right in the eyes. "chase brody, i have known you for exactly four years now, almost to the day, and you have never been a pussy bitch about anything. i've seen you fall through the porch and stab a piece of wood through your leg and still be making jokes on the way to the er. you are not a coward." he tilted chase's head up and yanked him to his feet. "now go out there and stop being a little bitch baby."
and maybe that inspirational pep talk was exactly what chase needed, because he felt strangely calm as he walked out and waved at the familiar car in the middle of the cul-de-sac, engine still running. "hey there," he grinned as lucas threw open the passenger seat door. "thank you so much for this, man."
"absolutely no problem!" lucas insisted. his hair was tangled and curly, his shirt rumpled and… chase squinted at him as he buckled his seatbelt.
"your shirt's on backwards," he told him.
lucas flushed and grabbed at the front of his shirt, twisting it to look for the tag. chase glanced away. "ah," lucas said. "so it is."
their eyes met, and they both burst into peals of laughter. it wasn't even that funny, but both of them were so glad for a distraction that it didn't even matter. "so tell me about your kids," lucas said as he turned the car to go up the street. "you told me their names, but not much else. what are they like?"
chase smiled, laughing softly. "well, louise is older. she's a papa's girl. she's just the sweetest kid, she's not great with people but she had the greatest imagination. she's told me all about this big world she has created in her head and she talks about it a lot, about all her characters that she says she wants to base books off one day." he paused to take a breath, watching the streets fly past out the window. "and connor loves his mama, he's younger by two years and he's a very sweet boy. he's better with people than his sister and spends a lot of time with his friends, and he loves baking and going out to exercise. not even sports. funnily enough, he doesn't like them because they're "too competitive." he just like running around in circles or doing roly polies across the grass."
he blinked, suddenly realizing how he'd been rambling. he glanced at lucas only to see him smiling wide, eyes crinkled. "no, go on," he said. "tell me more. what are louise's stories about?"
they talked the whole way there. by the time lucas pulled into stacy's driveway, he was feeling much warmer somehow. then he gasped, a sudden icy cold trickled down his back. "oh, sugar. i forgot to tell stacy you were - she might not recognize the car." he made a face, hissing through his teeth. "it's cool. she'll see it's me." he opened the car door, hesitating. "you coming? louise might feel more comfortable with a stranger if she meets you before we're all in a car together."
"uh - sure, yeah!" lucas agreed with a nervous smile, and chase's heart thumped in his chest as they stepped out of the car and up the pathway to the dark red front door of the house chase had once lived in with his wife and kids. this was never normally such an anxious experience for him, but with lucas by his side, it felt so much more personal. even the perfect ring of the doorbell hurt chase's ears. he clenched his fists as the sound of footsteps grew louder, a shadow appearing at the window, someone opening the door.
it was stacy. wavy golden hair, dark brown eyes, a bright blue blouse paired with red cutoff jeans. her face brightened at the sight of chase, then immediately dimmed into confusion as she caught sight of lucas. she shook it off, turning back to chase and quirking an eyebrow. "you're late," she said, as way of greeting.
"sorry, stace, my car wouldn't start," chase explained awkwardly. then he gestured to lucas behind him. "my friend lucas drove me here. he's gonna, uh, drive us back too."
stacy looked suspicious. "uh huh. nice to meet you, lucas."
chase winced at her dry tone, but couldn't really blame her. stacy had a lot of trust issues after anti had taken the kids two years ago. despite stacy's clear distrust, lucas stepped forwards with a warm grin. "nice to meet you too, miss…" his grin faltered, and he glanced at chase. stacy answered instead.
"wilson," she said. "stacy wilson."
"ah!" lucas said. "nice to meet you, miss wilson, and apologies for intruding like this. i'm just doing a favour for chase here. i can show my driver's licence if it'd help put your mind at ease at all about me driving with your children."
stacy blinked, then blanked her face again, showing no reaction. "i think i'd like that, if it's ok," she said softly. then she turned and called into the house. "lou, connor, papa's here!"
immediately, the sound of shrieking picked up, and the pounding of two pairs of feet crashed down the hall. "papa papa papa!" cried two loud voices, and then the kids burst into view, pushing past their mother and latching onto chase tightly. little blonde connor, with his hair falling in his eyes and toothpaste stains on his overalls, and blue eyed louise, chestnut hair tied into intricate braids that fell down the back of her pink hoodie. they laughed as they held him, both babbling so quickly chase could barely keep up.
"papa, papa, we made brownies with ice cream yesterday and they're so nice!"
"we went to the youth club again on wednesday and i got to make a house out of lolly sticks!"
"oh, and i found a cat and i named him johnny but mama wouldn't let us keep him - who's that?"
both children peeked round their father's legs to look at lucas, who was looking considerably more nervous than he had before. he waved, shoulder's almost at his ears. "hey there," he said with a reassuring smile. "my name's lucas. i'm a friend of your papa's."
they were silent for a moment. connor was the first to speak. "what's your last name?"
lucas looked taken aback. "ah - ross. it's ross. why do you ask?"
connor tilted his head. "you look like a teacher. should we call you mr ross?"
lucas suddenly laughed. "that won't be necessary." he put his hands into his pocket, silently rummaging for something. "connor, is it? your father tells me you like running and baking. honestly, that sounds like a fun combination to me. i really like baking too." then he turned to louise, who shrank back behind her brother slightly despite being taller than him. "and you must be louise. very lovely to meet you. i hear you like writing and drawing! that does sound fun. i bet you make really cool stuff." he suddenly pulled out two five pound notes from each pocket, grinning at the way the kid's eyes lit up. "you guys could buy some cool stuff with this. maybe you can go on a shopping trip this weekend."
connor shrieked with excitement as he took both notes, passing one back to his sister, who was still lurking quietly. "thank you, thank you, thank you, mr ross! we'll spend these on good things, promise!"
chase chuckled in disbelief, grinning at lucas's proud expression. "are you trying to make my own kids like you better than me?" he laughed, knocking his arm against his friend's. connor, meanwhile, was leaping up and down in front of stacy, holding up the blue and green note.
"look, mama, we got money! we can buy cool stuff!" he crowed. stacy gave an uncertain smile, glancing up at lucas with concern in her eyes. she was still worried. chase could see that. so, it appeared, was louise. she clutched her note close to her chest, staring shyly down at her blue trainers, although she had a little smile on her face at the same time. stacy, though - for a moment chase was worried she wouldn't accept it, that she'd tell the kids to give the money back. she hesitated, looking down at them, then sighed.
"well - you're not spending it on sweeties, you understand?" she said, forcing a smile. it was just that one sentence that made chase feel an immediate sense of relief. she'd approved. and while chase would probably have to talk to her more about this on sunday, this was happening now, and chase couldn't have felt better.
"come on, kiddos. let's get this going," he beamed, and connor cheered as he bounded into the car. louise was much quieter about it, but as she went by, chase heard her murmur a small "thank you" before climbing in beside her brother.
"please take care of them," stacy said softly. she ran her hands through her hair, suddenly looking exhausted. "they've been through so much already. don't let them hurt more."
she was speaking directly to lucas, despite not right looking at him. lucas relaxed, tapping his shoes against the path. "i won't," he said firmly. "i promise. oh, and here's my license, since you wanted to see -"
while lucas spoke with stacy, chase buckled up the kids into their seats. "mr ross is super nice, papa!" connor exclaimed, kicking his legs. "are we gonna go shopping? what can i buy with this money? how much is this money? there's a - ooh, there's a five in the corner, and it's got winston churchill on it - we're learning about the world wars in school, so i know who he is, papa, i'm so so so so clever!"
chase laughed as his son rambled, then turned to his older daughter. "you ok?" he asked quietly. louise nodded, clinging to her sonic plushie and smiling.
"tell mr ross thank you," she whispered. "he is nice. is he your friend?"
chase sighed softly. "he is my friend," he murmured, guilt still heavy in his chest. he was going to have to make this up to lucas with far more than just a trip to the local bakery. "and you two can call him lucas if you like. no need to be so formal."
he heard lucas say goodbye to stacy then walk round the side of the car to get in the driver's seat. "are you guys all ok?" he asked, looking at the kids in the rearview mirror. they both nodded, louise ducking her head shyly. chase and lucas exchanged smiles. connor and louise liked lucas, albeit maybe due to a little bit of bribery. stacy hadn't freaked out. this was starting off well.
"let's go!" chase said, and the kids cheered as he turned to lucas. "thank you," he said softly. "i'll make it up to you."
"no need," lucas grinned, glancing does at the dashboard. "your kids are sweet. it's my pleasure, honestly."
chase leaned back in his seat, listening to lucas chat with the kids and the ac blowing into the car to cool them down. this was good. maybe things could be good. maybe this was the start of things looking up.
-
anti hadn't meant to do it. at first.
two men had jumped him as he walked down the streets at maybe three in the morning, having gone out to get some supplies from asda before finding a shelter. "what have you got there, tosser?" said one man, grinning. he was holding a knife. so was the other man. they were both big, bigger than anti, both wearing dark clothes and masks over their faces. they looked down at anti like he didn't stand a chance.
honestly, anti just couldn't believe he was getting mugged for the second time in a week. the first time, he'd been caught completely off guard, taken down immediately before he'd had the chance to take his knife out. this time, he had a small switchblade that he'd nicked off a man at the shelter. he could feel it in his sleeve as he held up his hands, warm from his body heat. maybe he wouldn't have to use it. maybe.
but maybe he wanted to.
he thought he blacked out. he remembered laughing - laughing as much as he could in his condition, a wheezing, clicking laugh - and he remembered the blade held tight in his hands, and he remembered dark blood splattered against dark walls, clawing hands, screaming, screaming.
when he came out of his dizzying red haze, two men were lying dead on the floor.
his hands were red. probably. anti was red-green colourblind, and it was very dark, but even with that he could imagine how bright the blood was, scarlet against his pale skin. in his vision, it just looked like ink. thick, disgusting ink, smelling of iron and death. the men had already gone ashen. lifeless. flat eyes. anti used to get high on this, elated by the thrill of tearing a a life away, of hearing agonized screams and pleas for help. now… now he just felt sick.
he hadn't killed anyone since maybe last christmas. that had been the one year anniversary of dapper leaving, and anti had felt so miserable and alone that by the end of the day, at least seven people weren't going home to their families that night. anti had revelled in it. i lost my family, so you get to lose yours too! you're not even real! just characters made by jack to flesh out my world, my world! you're not real! none of this is real! only dapper was real, dapper was real and i lost him, i lost him forever!
seven people. maybe more. it was sickening that anti couldn't remember how many wives, husbands, brothers, sisters, children, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends, had sat and waited for their loved one to arrive safely, getting more and more worried as the hours went by, cheer fading with the anxiety of it all, until eventually they got a call from the police letting them know that a person of the description that they'd been looking for had been found, mutilated, soaked in blood, under a bench, in a box, shoved under a truck, on christmas day, christmas day. anti didn't care. he was hurting so badly that he didn't give a shit about anything.
now it was nearly october, nearly a year later, and vomit was rising in anti's throat as he looked at the bodies. he swallowed it back - throwing up was so painful that he'd rather stay miserable than let it out at all - and shuddered, stepping backwards, trainers slipping on the wet, uneven concrete. a sudden calm came over him. he'd killed them. him. not red or bat or anyone else. blood on his hands. he should have enjoyed it.
would he have enjoyed killing those seven people last christmas if he'd been able to go back in time and tell his past self that one day he'd be in their exact position, held down as he was tortured, in agony, but unable to die? was that the reason why he'd been unable to feel his normal exhilaration while killing them? had he seen himself in their eyes?
two wasn't enough.
it was dark as fuck. not many people around. there was, however, a brunette woman in a pink jacket walking along, head down against the world. anti's heart raced. he didn't think this was right. he didn't think this was right.
but he did it anyway. as soon as she went by, anti grabbed her and - and - he didn't think. there was just a knife in her stomach, and she screamed, and oh, that sound elated him and made him feel sick at the same time. he twisted the knife and clamped a bloody hand over her mouth. his head was pounding, black spots dancing in his field of vision.
three people dead. so much blood on him.
had he enjoyed it the way he always had? he couldn't even tell.
it was only a moment before his legs gave out beneath him and he sank dizzily to his knees against the wall of a building, fingers scrabbling for a hold so he wouldn't pass out. he had forgotten this. this would usually be the part where he'd glitch the cameras, loop the footage and delete all record of what he'd done, and turn to static so he could travel somewhere through the phone lines to go wash off. he couldn't do that now. all he could do was stare helplessly, little wheezing breaths escaping his lips as his chest squeezed tighter and tighter. why, why, why did this hurt, why was he so close to throwing up? he closed his eyes and breathed for a moment. don't freak out, don't freak out.
too late for that. because he was - all he could think of was -
“excuse me, sir, are you alright?”
he glanced up to see a woman with dark brown hair and a long blue coat peering down at him with concerned hazel eyes. “‘m fine,” he muttered, not wanting to get other people involved. he looked away from her into the street, hoping to communicate that he wanted to be left alone.
anti needed to catch a breath. he wasn't that weak now. he wasn't.
apparently he hadn’t learned enough about human body language, because she crouched down next to him. “why don’t you come inside?” she purred, pointing to a doorway behind her that said ‘"staff only" in scrawled font. “it’s nice and warm. don’t worry, i’ll say you’re with me.”
he was now beginning to panic. “leave me alone,” he said quietly.
no, no, he could feel her hands on him. he wasn't weak anymore, he wasn't, look at how far he'd come since then.
the woman laughed lightly. she was drunk. he could smell the alcohol on her breath. “hey now, don’t be like that,” she hummed. one of her hands touched his arm gently, and he recoiled in disgust. “really, i just-”
for the past three weeks he had been carrying around a knife. it was a switchblade that he could pop up and down. he had stolen it from an antique shop; he assumed it was valuable, but he didn’t care. it comforted him, and he always had it in his pocket, especially when he was out of the house.
the knife was in the woman’s stomach before he could stop to think.
fuck, fuck, stop touching, stop looking, fucking hell -
anti threw the knife away and clutched at his head, bringing his knees up to his chest. he was going to be sick. this was - it was too much. too much. too much happening, he could feel hands all over him somehow and something warm was burning his cheeks, he was retching, why had he gotten so cocky, why hadn't he been able to stop red taking him away? this was pathetic!
doctor had been right. everything he had said yesterday - anti should just be satisfied with the damage already done. why was he feeling like this now? why did he never know when to quit? he was hurting and it was all too much, make it stop, make it stop make it -
stop -
stop…
anti hadn't meant to do it. at first.
two men had jumped him as he walked down the streets at maybe three in the morning, having gone out to get some supplies from asda before finding a shelter. "what have you got there, tosser?" said one man, grinning. he was holding a knife. so was the other man. they were both big, bigger than anti, both wearing dark clothes and masks over their faces. they looked down at anti like he didn't stand a chance.
honestly, anti just couldn't believe he was getting mugged for the second time in a week. the first time, he'd been caught completely off guard, taken down immediately before he'd had the chance to take his knife out. this time, he had a small switchblade that he'd nicked off a man at the shelter. he could feel it in his sleeve as he held up his hands, warm from his body heat. maybe he wouldn't have to use it. maybe.
but maybe he wanted t-
something banged down the street. all three men whipped round as they heard whooping, a group of people coming out from seemingly nowhere. "the fuck -" said the taller man, and he grabbed his friend's shoulders to drag him away, both of them racing down the alley and out of sight. the group of people passed them by, led by a person who's hood was up to shield their face. on the other side of the street was a brunette woman with a pink jacket head down against the world. she, too, disappeared from view.
and anti was seemingly alone again.
seemingly.

the day before, right after henrik and marvin's conversation on the stairwell
henrik von schneeplestein wasn't a stupid man. marvin just liked to underestimate him. he quietly watched his brother disappear downstairs before sneaking into his room, softly clicking the door shut behind him.
marvin hadn't even tried to be subtle. henrik had heard him talking to anti through the door, a one sided conversation that he obviously couldn't catch the other side of, although it wasn't hard to figure out what was going on. and even though he couldn't immediately see anti when he slipped inside, he knew he was there. he could feel his presence.
"i know you're in here," he said aloud. "i could hear marvin talking to you. oh, let me guess. the rain is too much for you, so you're taking advantage of marvin again. i'm not a fucking idiot, anti."
something clattered in the wardrobe, like something being dropped. henrik stiffened, then walked towards it slowly, still talking.
"jackie told us everything, you know. about how you were taking over his mind, how you were manipulating his nightmares, trying to make him one of your fucking puppets. just like jamie, eh? you needed to replace him. it was your gottverdammt fault that he - snapped!"
henrik threw the doors to the wardrobe open. anti was in there, scowling - henrik presumed marvin had told him to hide, the sneaky bastard - but stepped out as soon as he was revealed, hands flying.
"you think i corrupted him?" he signed, so fast henrik almost couldn't read his hands. "you think it was my fault he ended up an unhinged sick bitch? he was always like that and you just never saw. all i did was nudge him. without meaning to, of course, but apparently a few bad dreams were enough to push him to doing the shit he did. you can't blame anyone else for what happened. even me."
he was breathing heavily by the time he finished, clinging to the door with his good hand tightly. henrik didn't break eye contact with him even as his mind raced with everything anti had just said. he was lying. anti was a liar, a manipulator, a trickster. this had been his fault and he couldn't deny it.
henrik grabbed anti's shirt and pushed him up against the wall next to the window. "stop it!" he cried, furious. "just stop it! haven't you done enough, aren't you satisfied with the damage you've done -"
anti suddenly shoved henrik off him, grabbing the curtain for support. he didn't sign anything. he just glared, rage blazing in his eyes like fire. henrik stared down at him, teeth gritted with the effort it was taking not to scream or break something or throw anti right out the window in the hopes that it would make him feel any better.
"don't - fucking - come back here," henrik spat, voice shaking. his nails dug into his palms so hard he could feel it bleeding. "you hear me? all you've ever done is hurt. aren't you - don't you get sick of it? of being so hated? fuck, i just - stay away from us."
anti sank to the floor under the window, evidently too tired to do anything but hiss softly through his teeth. henrik turned on heel, disgusted, and stormed from marvin's room, listening to his brother downstairs in the kitchen and trying not to break down.

present day
the door to naomi's shop creaked open, the bell tinkling loudly to alert her to a customer's presence. she sighed softly in despair, despite having opened the store with the intention of people coming in. that hadn't meant she wanted to interact with people.
naomi knew she wasn't supposed to have reopened the store so soon after her relapse. but nai's blomma magi was literally her only source of income, and she couldn't afford to keep it closed. although she had considered calling marvin to ask him to come help out, but didn't want to bother him anymore than she had to. she cringed thinking back on how she'd exploded at him already. she didn't want to end up saying anything any worse and have him leave her forever.
she was honestly surprised he hadn't already.
the customer came round the shelves to the counter, and naomi jumped upon seeing who it was. at first she thought it was marvin, but a moment of closer inspection revealed it was anti, a big jacket on and a black scarf wrapped around his mouth. he came right up to the counter, looking down to pull something out of his pockets.
"anti," naomi said, surprised. her accent still made it sound like "andy," and she hoped he wouldn't be too upset about it. "what are you doing here? i mean, good to see you, but -"
anti pulled a piece of paper from his pocket and placed it down on the counter, sliding it towards naomi. she picked it up curiously and read it. have you seen marvin? it read.
"i - yes, i suppose i have," she said, confused. had anti gotten a haircut? it looked nice. she wasn't going to say that though, obviously. "last i saw him was at the park yesterday morning. why? you know where he lives anyway."
anti pulled out a pen and began to scribble, holding the paper down with his left hand as he wrote. need to find him as soon as possible, he wrote. he's not at the same house. i can't find him and i have to.
naomi frowned. "they - they're at the same flat as they've been for almost a year. weren't you just there the other day?"
anti looked up with pleading grey eyes. please just tell me the address, he wrote. this is important. i swear i mean no ill intent.
well, that was a weird thing to say. but naomi's head was still foggy and her thoughts were barely making sense. she quickly gave anti the address, which he wrote down, his eyes crinkling in a grateful smile. "thank you," he said, a sign naomi knew, and she nodded uncertainly, smiling back at him as he turned and left. it was only then that she realized anti must have been wearing some kind of makeup under his eyes, because she couldn't see any of his scars.
there was something off about all of this. something very off. naomi wasn't sure what, and she didn't have the energy to think about it, but she knew.
however, she didn't have time to think about it. as she watched anti go, she could see something odd about the sky outside. her lips parted softly at the sight, and she found herself unconsciously stepping forwards closer to the door to take a look. and oh, the sight of what was happening outside took her breath away.
all she could do was stare at the sky in wonder.
-
connor and louise had both had a fantastic day with their papa. they had gotten to see uncle henrik and uncle marvy again, and they had all gone to the park for a little while before going to papa's house and watching a movie. uncle henrik had made them popcorn, and papa had bought them each pretty new shelves for their room. on top of all that, papa's new friend had given them money and talked to them so nicely. it had all been good. right up until they woke up in the wee hours of the morning to a strange sight outside.
it was just a bright light at first, making louise screw up her eyes tighter and turn her head away from the window. but the glow was lighting up the entirety of their room, and she cracked her eyes with a soft moan. it was only when she looked properly that she sat up, gasping softly.
"connor," she whispered, shaking off her covers and pressing bare feet to the cold floor, padding over to her brother's bed and shaking him. "con-nor. wake up, please wake up."
connor groaned in his sleep, scrunching up his face and turning away. louise shook him again, poking his cheek. "connor!"
eventually, the boy whined softly and flopped round to face his sister. "what?" he moaned, then threw an arm over his face. "turn off the light, lou, it's too bright. what time is it?"
"i don't know, and the light isn't on," she said. she stepped aside to let connor see the window, and he squinted. "look at that!"
connor sat straight up, breathing in sharply. "woah!" he exclaimed, swinging his legs over the bed and standing next to his sister. "what is that?"
he quickly bounded towards the window, louise hissing words of caution behind him. "louise!" he cried, slapping both hands to the glass and pressing his face to try and see clearer. "the sky is falling!"
and he was right. the sky was falling.
it should have been pitch black outside. instead, the sky was lit up with a thousand vibrant colours, chunks of neon light streaming down to the ground like transparent meteors. wispy ribbons of colour were trailing through the stars to the buildings below, like the northern lights, but far more explosive. the kids gaped, awestruck.
"wow," louise gasped. "the sky is really falling."
the sky was really falling.

Amy
“I’m going to kill him.”
If there was one thing Amy wasn’t good at, it was acting. She still tried to act surprised when Kamilah drove them to the Hamptons’ house and started to ask if she’d like to have it for their wedding party, or even permanently, but her ‘whoa’ wasn’t convincing enough.
“You didn’t like it,” Kamilah sighed in disappointment.
“No,” she fixed. “It’s just… I’ve been here before. With Lysimachus.”
After telling her fiancée about how she found out about the house and how her twin brother invaded it, Kamilah was extremely angry.
“Hey,” Amy went behind her, massaging her tense shoulders, “I loved it and this is what matters. Really, Kamilah. I could spend the rest of my life here with you.”
The female vampire’s expression finally softened. She was still disturbed, Amy knew. The whole drive was silent and while she was focused on the road, her eyes seemed distant. It shouldn’t be easy to face Gaius again after almost a century. After betraying him. Kamilah hadn’t told her details of the encounter, but she had a feeling, a intuition, that he had tortured her badly.
“So…” she tried to lighten her mood, “now we have this house all for us, which part should we try first? We have a nice bar, a giant swimming pool, four bedrooms…”
“A walk on the beach is fine for me,” Kamilah replied.
Amy agreed.
After minutes walking together on the shoreline, holding hands and feeling the waves crashing against their bare feet, they picked somewhere to sit. They contemplated the ocean in silence for a moment, before Amy pulled Kamilah for a kiss. A soft and gentle kiss. She still hadn’t felt her fiancée’s lips after coming home. After thinking she would never be able to cherish them again, because she almost died in Wright’s crazy ritual.
“I have something to tell you,” she spoke. “It’s about the historical fair.”
Kamilah stared at her for a second before rolling her eyes.
“If you say you’re going back to London, I…”
Amy couldn’t help laughing.
“I mean it, that teacher has a master’s degree in manipulation.”
“She had, indeed. She’s dead, Kamilah.”
“Oh.”
“She was lying the entire time about the fair. It was a trap to force me to join her cult.”
“I knew there was something wrong about her! She didn’t force you to do anything, did she? Because some of these cults can evoke some real dark forces.”
“Actually, I was the sacrifice to her goddess.”
“God, Amy… H-How did you…”
“I believe destiny really want us to get married. Lysimachus happened to be at the right place, in the right time. He saved my life.”
“I…” Kamilah didn’t know what to say. It shocked more than she already was. While she processed the information, Amy hugged her tightly, resting her head on her shoulder.
“I’m just so thankful I have another chance of being here with you.”
She didn’t told it yet. She just couldn’t find words to tell Kamilah she was the First Vampire’s descendant. The one that was supposed to bring her back to life. Did her feelings or their connection had anything to do with that? She wasn’t sure. Conflicted, she decided to keep the information for the right moment.
----------
Lysimachus
He was working on a project for Raines Corporation but his eyes wouldn’t leave the page lying on the table. That mysterious symbol, he could almost remember seeing it before, engraved somewhere. But he had been alive for 2064 years, it wouldn’t be an easy task to remember. He rested his back on the chair and let out a weary sigh.
Priya passed through his office door, grunting with her cell phone in hands.
“Bastards!”
“Do you ever do anything else other than complaining?”
“I’ve got trouble, Hunter. Trouble you wouldn’t understand.”
“Is it the gossip website again? I’m not hacking it another time to remove your… compromising pictures.”
“Those were fake! My features are way better than that and you know it. Anyways, that doesn’t come to the case…”
“What’s the matter?” He sighed and crossed his arms to hear, expecting it to not having any murder situation involved.
“You know, since I’ve been off the media lately, it has been raising a lot of questions. Now, my agent is forcing me to attend this party tonight.”
“Since when this is a problem to you?”
“I need a date and literally no one is available.”
She watched him in silence, expecting an answer. Lysimachus didn’t know what to say. It wasn’t like he could recommend her any celebrities or high society personalities to attend the party as her date. Then he realized…
“No. The answer is no.”
“I’ll pay you for it.”
“I don’t need money.”
“Then, what do you want?”
“Hmmm,” he was pensive for a moment, trying to figure out something Priya would never accept. “I accept under one condition.”
“Tell me your price.”
“You’ll be doing something nice for once.”
“Like…” she seemed puzzled, “donating money for charity? Adopting a stray puppy? That’s easy.”
“No,” Lysimachus protested. “I want you to do something spontaneous. You know, not because you’re being forced, but because you want to. Something that shows you actually have a heart.”
“Go to hell,” she whined, walking back to the living room. “I’ll find some random mortal on Bleeder.”
He followed. She was deeply focused between finishing the last adjustments for wedding dresses and the release her Spring collection. Priya was passionate about her career, that he couldn’t deny. It was possibly the only thing she truly loved.
“You’ve outdone yourself with these dresses, congratulations.”
“I know,” she grinned, proud of her creations. “Also, Kamilah is paying me handsomely for them.”
That was a good opportunity to try to explore her mind. Speaking of her work, she could reveal a little of who she truly was.
“You’re talented,” Lysimachus complimented. “It’s uhhh… been only fifteen years since you officially started your label?”
“That’s correct, but you know… being vampires, we always need to confuse the media, so I answer ten in most of my interviews.”
“And for how long have you been a fashion designer?”
She was silent for a brief moment, as she was reliving a memory. A small smile appeared in the corners of her mouth.
“Since I was born, I think.”
That was the answer Lysimachus wanted. Finally something honest, with feelings.
“Oh, how was it like back in India? Did women wear some sophisticated sari with your name written all over it?”
The smile faded away from her face.
“It’s none of your business, Hunter. Now listen, will you help me or not?”
As he advised her himself, “always find out your target’s weaknesses”. He had just found the right spot. He only needed to know how to access it.
“Okay, you win. I’m going with you to the party.”
----------
Kamilah
It had been almost ten minutes Kamilah had locked herself inside the restaurant’s toilet. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, her fangs were still exposed, as well as her red eyes.
To feed from that group of mortals, she had to let her instincts take control. She wouldn’t be able to do that consciously. Now, after ingesting such a large amount of blood, her thirst was out of control. While they were eating, she couldn’t focus on anything else but the beating hearts around her, their jugulars, the sound of the blood running inside their veins… including Amy’s. She looked at her fiancée and she desired her in a different mode. She wanted to please her, to make her scream her name and beg, beg for more… beg for her life, as her fangs sank into her neck and sucked until the last drop of blood.
Gaius was turning her into a monster again and she didn’t even notice. The hypnosis wasn’t needed, he was already inside her head.
“Kamilah?” She heard Amy’s voice coming from outside. “Is everything alright?”
Amy. Her Amy. Was she still capable of loving her the same way? What if she lost control? She could seriously injury her or worse.
“Open the door, please.”
She inhaled deeply, focusing her thoughts on something else. Ahmanet Financial. Nothing could make her forget about the world as her company. If she managed to control her hunger through the centuries, she could do it again.
When she opened the door, she was her recomposed self again.
“Sorry, I was fixing my make up,” she walked away before Amy could question.
Back to their house, she grabbed her laptop and pretended to be focused. She needed to avoid Amy as much as possible. At some point the girl would want to get intimate and it’d lead to a tragic outcome.
“What are you doing?” Amy placed herself next to her on the couch, with a bucket of popcorn. “You’ve been acting weird since lunch.”
“My apologies, Amy. I… I forgot these information I was supposed to have sent to my lawyers and I was afraid it was too late, but I’m working on it right now.”
“Anything I can help? I’m still your assistant.”
“Not really, it’s just very complicated.”
“Okay.”
The girl started to text Lily and as she was distracted, Kamilah could examine the pictures she took of Lysimachus’ book. She had absolutely no idea how to translate that.
“Lawyers, huh?” Unnoticed, Amy came back from the kitchen and stopped behind her. “This is the ritual Lysimachus and Lily have been studying. The one to kill Gaius.”
“Amy,” it was becoming harder to keep things from her fiancée. She always managed to find a way to figure out when she wasn’t well.
“Kamilah, it’s okay to share your concerns and feelings with me. I mean, we’re getting married. It shouldn’t be a problem anymore. Unless…”
The girl studied her face for a few seconds before raising her eyebrow.
“Unless you’re planning something stupid. You’re not planning to do this on your own, are you?”
She rolled her eyes, wondering if Amy was having those visions about her life again.
“Amy, speaking of a fight against Gaius, it’s clear not all of us are going to survive. People will die and I don’t want it to be Lysimachus… or you.”
“How many of you did he kill, back in the twenties, when you put him in the sarcophagus?” Amy sighed.
“None, but only because I intervened.”
“But you couldn’t have done it yourself! You only stabbed him because he was distracted fighting the others.”
Kamilah rolled her eyes again. It was hard to admit Amy was right.
“Why don’t we join them and help with their plan? Trust me, it’s the best we can do.”
Amy placed her hand on hers and she admitted defeat. Even though Priya was part of the plan, it was more reasonable and safe than fighting Gaius alone.
----------
Amy
Despite Amy’s best attempts, Kamilah was avoiding physical contact or any interaction that could lead to intimacy.
“Is there something wrong with me or…” she showed Lily her body and face through a video call.
Maybe Kamilah was too stressed to think about it, but then, for what purpose she brought her to stay in that house for a couple of days, if they weren’t supposed to spend time together?
“Uhh... maybe she’s attached to old traditions? I mean, save it for after the wedding?” Lily suggested.
Amy muffled a laugh.
“I don’t think that’s the case. Anyways I should go, I have a sexy vampire CEO to seduce. Bye.”
She walked to the living room, wearing a sexy nightdress she bought in London. One she knew Kamilah would be able to resist. She bit her lower lip playfully as she spotted the female vampire in the living room, where she was waiting for her to watch a movie.
"What is my gorgeous fiancée doing?" She asked to make her presence to be noticed.
"Amy," Kamilah said, before turning around to face her, "I swear this was the longest shower you've ever..."
She turned around and stopped, astonished by her special outfit.
"I was preparing you a little surprise. Did you like it?"
"I-It looks... nice."
"Really?" Amy rolled her eyes. "Nice is the best word you can use to describe it?"
"No, actually I can find multiple other adjectives to express how much I liked it."
"So," Amy wrapped her arms around her neck and whispered in her ear, "tell me."
“Amy,” Kamilah carefully pushed her away, “this may not be a good idea at the moment.”
Amy threw herself at the couch and sighed frustrated, wondering if after being distant for so long Kamilah had stopped desiring her.
“It has nothing to do with you,” the female vampire spoke. “It’s about me.”
“Gaius?” Amy asked, afraid to hear the answer.
Kamilah shook her head in denial.
“After ingesting such a large amount of blood my thirst is out of control.”
“Oh, so that’s the problem. I mean, you’ve controlled it before, you can control it again.”
“Does that make you relieved?” Kamilah frowned. “Amy, it turns me into a monster! At the same time I want you, I want to drink until the last drop of blood in your body.”
After thinking for a while, Amy found an easy solution. She brushed off her hair from her shoulder, exposing her neck.
“Do it,” she ordered. “Feed from me. You'll never know if you don't try it.”
“Did you hear what I just told you? I’m going to kill you.”
“You won’t. I know it.”
“Amy...”
“It’s in your head, Kamilah. You’re letting Gaius manipulate you again, can’t you see it? You’re not a monster. Please, let me prove this to you.”
She stood up again, approaching Kamilah and pressing her lips on the vampire’s. As she slipped her tongue inside Kamilah’s mouth, she stopped her.
“Then let’s get you a stake first. In case I don’t stop, you can...”
“Kamilah,” Amy silenced her with her index finger, “stop.”
She turned around, exposing her jugular again. Kamilah held her close, Amy could feel her heart racing inside her chest. She nervously traced her neck, finding the right spot to feed.
“Are you sure?” Kamilah asked.
“More than sure,” Amy placed her hand where hers was lying, on her belly.
Kamilah slowly sank her fangs into her jugular, drawing small sips of her blood. Amy could sense how insecure she was, as if she was holding back her thirst, her desire, everything... and the girl was determined to get more. She grabbed Kamilah’s hand, guiding it to her inner tights.
She moaned in pleasure as Kamilah started to give her exactly what she wanted, what made the vampire deepen the bite.
Amy never felt a similar pleasure in her life before. Kamilah’s fingers moving inside her, along with the pleasure from the bite. She felt like her entire body was on fire. Kamilah suddenly stopped.
“That’s enough, I’ve drank enough of your blood.”
“No,” Amy protested. “You usually take more than that.”
“I feel I’m slipping out of my control.”
“You’re not. I promise you.”
“In this case,” Kamilah looked at her and a devilish grin appeared on her face.
Using her vampire special skills, she ripped off Amy’s nightdress.
“I thought you had liked it,” Amy complained.
“I thought you were used to my ways of showing it.”
Kamilah’s mouth was suddenly on hers, kissing her hungrily, fiercely... then she moved down to Amy’s neck, tracing her jugular with her tongue.
“Hmmm, I’ve had enough of this,” she sank down to her knees, leaving Amy with a confused look on her face.
She softly pressed her fangs against Amy’s inner tights, leaving a small, shallow cut. The swipe of her tongue, cleaning the blood over the mark, made Amy’s entire blood tremble. She closed her eyes, enjoying the sensation of ecstasy as Kamilah bit her a little harder, drawing some more blood.
Amy was about to reach climax when the female vampire stopped, healing the bite with her fingertips.
“Why did you... oh!” Amy had no time to finish her question, Kamilah moved her mouth to her most sensitive spot of her body, sending her into bliss.
After she finished, Amy’s legs were weak and her mind a little lightheaded and foggy.
“Now you know how much I liked it.”
Between pants, the girl let out a smile.
-----------
Kamilah
It was late night and Kamilah couldn’t force herself to sleep. Though she was relieved to know her thirst was remained under control, she was lying still, staring at the ceiling. She wondered if she and the others would even survive the next few weeks. Or days. Gaius was planning something big and, unless she was able to earn his trust again, she wouldn’t be part of it this time. The sound of her cell phone vibrating on the nightstand made her body stiffen even more. It was Harvey.
After going to the balcony, she finally answered.
“What do you want?” She asked. “I’m in the middle of something.”
“Recruiting new members, I hope,” the voice on the other side replied. "The King isn't pleased after what your stupid brother did."
"I haven't spoke to my brother in days. I have no idea of what he's doing."
"After you gave him ownership over your clan, he sent all of the members to different parts of the country, looking for our King."
Kamilah smirked. Her twin brother hadn't lost his skills over the century. Behind this act, he should be trying to make it difficult for Gaius to get new servants.
"I mean it, Kamilah. You better find some new members to our army, he's furious at you."
The last words made Kamilah's heart pound, but she couldn't show it.
"I'll see what I can do," she lied. "Just give me some time."
"We have no time. He wants to see you, in three days."
Three days. Gaius demanded to see her urgently. If he was furious, he'd probably punish her. If only she was able to finish him before that... As anger took control of her body, she was ready to throw her cell phone away, when a loud, frightened scream came from inside the bedroom.
"Amy," she shouted.
In less than a second she was back to her fiancée's side. The girl was sitting on the bed, her skin was pale and her eyes were wide in fear.
"You scared me, what's wrong?"
"I-I..." she took a moment before being able to say anything. "The visions, Kamilah. I saw her... Keaseth."
"Who?!"
"The First Vampire. Her name is Keaseth."
Kamilah sat by her side in bed, wrapping an arm around her shoulders in a assuring manner.
"Amy, she's only a myth. We're not even sure she really existed."
"She exists, Kamilah!" Amy raised her voice. "Asleep, inside a coffin in some underground temple in London. To wake her up, I must offer my life in sacrifice because I'm her descendant. The one she assigned the mission."
The girl buried her face in Kamilah's chest and started to sob.
"S-She's calling for me... but I can't... I can't..."
"This is insanity. Whatever that teacher has tormented your mind with isn't true, Amy! She was a psycho that created a baseless theory. This isn't true!"
"Lysimachus has the manuscripts. It's real, Kamilah. Everything is there, Keaseth instructions, a genealogy map that leads to me... It's true. I can ask him to show you."
Kamilah got up from the bed and started pacing around the room. It couldn’t be true. That teacher should’ve invented it all to lure Amy into her own interests. But somehow it explained Amy’s visions. How she could, somehow, have access to hers, Lysimachus and Adrian's past.
“This isn’t why I love you,” Amy tried to explain between tears. “In the beginning I was confused. I thought I only felt attracted to you because I’m related to The Frist Vampire, but it’s not...”
“Amy...” Kamilah gave her a comforting hug. “This thought never crossed my mind. I... The only thing I fear is for your life. If you’re really her descendant it makes your blood powerful, special. A lot of vampires could try to use it in their advantage. But... I’ll protect you.”
Amy finally opened a smile and hugged her back.
“Amy, as you know, under the current circumstances it’s impossible for us to have a moment of pure joy and peace, so... we have to go. Gaius is requesting to see me and we need to discuss our plan.”
“Kamilah, oh my god. Y-You don’t have to go. We'll find another way.”
“Yes, I do. While we can’t figure out a way to kill him, I can’t blow up my cover.”
“Actually...” Amy jumped out of the bed, looking for her phone.
“What are you doing?” Kamilah was confused.
“I’m calling Lysimachus, I just remembered where I saw the last symbol.”
-----------
Lysimachus
“Boring,” Priya lamented. “Everything suddenly started to feel boring and I don’t know why! Maybe I’m getting old, like Kamilah.”
“No,” Lysimachus added. “You’re absolutely right. That party was one of the most boring events I ever attended. I'm glad we left."
He still couldn’t believe how far he had went on his plan to find out about Priya’s past. He could have gone to the Shadow Den to help Lily or hang out with Jax. For what purpose he was trying to know her better? She would never change. She only agreed to be part of the plan because of her own interests: protection, power and strength. If Gaius offered her an opportunity to obtain more power, she’d surely accept.
“We aren’t even friends…” Lysimachus though, “or are we?”
As Priya would always say, they were friends with benefits, without the friends part. Only the benefits.
“Than, let's have fun!” She complained, splashing him some water. "We didn't come here to chat."
“Okay..."
They were both in the swimming pool at Priya's house, with a few bottles of vodka he stole at the event's bar. All he had to do was to find a way to make her talk.
"We could play a game," he suggested. "Truth or Dare?"
"Come on, Hunter. This is so last century! Though it could be fun if only picked 'dare'."
Her hand softly stroke his naked chest, when she suddenly stopped.
"I'm not sure I'm in the mood for this either."
Lysimachus observed confused as she left the swimming pool and wrapped a towel around her body.
"Priya, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
"Why do you assume it's about you?" Her face turned into a frown.
"I'm not assuming anything! You've been acting weird since this morning."
"You assume a lot of things."
He detected a hint of sadness in her voice.
“What are you talking about?”
“Stop playing dumb, Hunter. I saw you creeping on my bedroom. You don’t think I’m worthy your trust.”
“Priya, this is not...”
“I’m done with you.”
For the first time since they met, he could tell she was somehow hurt.
“I’m sorry, I just wanted to know more about you, about your past.”
His words made her turn around and face him again.
“Why?” She clenched her fists in anger. “Why was that supposed to matter? Why would you like to know about... that!”
Carefully, he took her hands in his and noticed she was shaking.
“Sometimes it’s easier if you just let it go. I mean, look at me. Everything I did, everything I built my entire life... it was a lie. My sister was so alive as I was.”
She walked away from him, sitting by the pool’s edge, where she started to play with the water using her hands. After a few minutes in silence she finally spoke.
“Life wasn’t always a piece of cake for me, Hunter. Back in India, I belonged to the people they call ‘the untouchable’, ‘the impure’. We lived like rats! In a secluded and small rural property, where my parents did the most degrading work to feed me and my four siblings.”
During his travels to India, Lysimachus heard about that group of people. Excluded from the caste system, they lived under inhumane rules.
“I was the youngest child and the only one to not accept that life,” Priya continued. “As a little girl, I started to collect pieces of fabric that were discarded and sew them together to make myself beautiful clothes. Clothes I’d never be allowed to have.”
She approached him again, taking a sip from her bottle to prepare for what she was going to tell next.
“When my father died, my mother fell seriously ill. We needed to bring home some money, but I’d never submit myself to dirty work, such as working with garbage and dejects. So, I went even dirtier.”
"Priya, oh my god...” Lysimachus ran his hand through his hair, not knowing exactly what to say upon that information.
“What do you think upper caste women did when they found out their husbands were sleeping with an ‘untouchable’? One night, they set my family’s house on fire. I wasn’t home, so I was the only one to survive.”
“It’s enough,” he told, squeezing her hand, but she was fixated in the memories. Memories she probably suppressed for over a century. Some tears started to run across her cheeks.
“With the money I had I fled to France, seeking for a better life. I was naive, Hunter. Too naive. Soon, I was back to my old habits. Until the day this rich guy I was dating got fed up of my expensive taste. He called a little friend of his and the two of them attempted to get rid of me, not before having fun one last time, of course.”
“Priya…"
"I was weak, almost dead, when somebody came to my rescue,” she didn’t let him speak. “A thirsty, disgusting vampire. I attempted to scream while he fed from what was left of me. After drinking my whole blood, he thought I was too young and pretty to die, so he Turned me.”
“You don’t even know who’s your maker.”
“No, I was on my own. Until a woman saved me. She owned a brothel. She let me stay there, where I was allowed to feed from her and her girls. In trade, I’d create clothes for their night shows and protect them from the nasty clients. That was my favorite part. Anyways, when she died, some of the girls wanted to come to America, where they hoped they’d find what they were searching for, so I came too.”
“And did you find it? What you were looking for?”
“More than that,” she finally opened a mischievous grin, “he gave me what I needed.”
“Who?”
“No one,” she finished her bottle and wiped the last few tears from her face. “He’s gone now. It doesn’t matter.”
Lysimachus stood up and involved her in a protective embrace. Everything suddenly made sense, her houseboys, the way she treated mortals… she was taking revenge for how she was treated in the past. Being used, abused, broken.
"You don't have to do this," he stroked her soft hair. "You're hiding behind this character you created to mask your pain. I know what I'm saying, this is exactly what I did being a Vampire Hunter."
“No, you have no idea of what you're saying,” she angered. “I shouldn’t have told you any of this! Now you know my weaknesses, you’re going to use it against me!”
“Priya,” Lysimachus held her still, looking into her eyes. “God, I would never use it against you. You can trust me, I promise.”
“But… now you know, it changes everything. You better keep a distance.”
“What if I don’t want to?”
For a moment, she seemed open, vulnerable. Their lips were almost touching when Priya took a step back.
“I need to stay alone for a while.”
Respecting her wish, Lysimachus went to the Shadow Den and left her alone in his apartment. Lily had important news to tell him.
“Amy told me she remembers seeing the mysterious symbol at Wright’s office and temple.”
“So that was where I saw it too.”
“Anyways, after studying it for hours I came to a conclusion,” Lily seemed worried somehow. “It’s a junction of other symbols: this one for ritual, the one for blood or descendant and this one... means sacrifice.”
“A-Are you telling me…”
“In order to kill what the First Vampire created, you must execute the ritual and offer her descendant as sacrifice.”
“You mean…”
“To kill Gaius, we must kill Amy too."
Next: When a meeting with Gaius goes wrong, somebody will be facing a tragic outcome. Stay tuned!

Operation Newsboy
And this is the chapter that was originally planned to be posted last night, but I just barely didn’t have enough time, so I’m posting this at 7 am before I get ready for the first day of school. Fun!
I also made a tag for what I write and a tag for this specific story (they’re the first two tags at the bottom)
Here’s the prologue, chapter one, chapter two, chapter three, chapter four, and chapter five if you hadn’t read them
Chapter 6
Words: 1,207
Warnings: uhhh blood(not graphic), injuries, swearing(idk if y’all care about that), horrible jokes
Editing: grammarly + read throughs
I shifted awake in my bed, the boys getting ready around me.
“C’mon, Speedy, get up!” Race whacked me in the face with his hat.
I groaned. “Yeah, yeah, I’m up.”
Sara’s voice crackled in my ear. “Wally, this is your complimentary 5:00 AM get-your-ass-out-of-bed call. Please get your ass out of bed.”
I activated my comms, and for the sake of Race and Sara, I said “I’m up!” really loudly.
“Good for you,” Race and Sara said, almost simultaneously.
I subtly switched my comms off.
As usual, we got ready to go out and sell papers.
“‘Ey, Jack! We is leavin’!” Elmer called.
“Go on without me!” Jack yelled.
Elmer looked at me. “You comin’, Speedy?”
“Nah. I’ll wait for Jack.”
”A’ight.” I saw them disappear down the stairs, then heard the tell-tale whoops and yells that meant that the newsies were up and ready for work.
Barely two minutes later, and Jack came down the stairs. “‘Ey, is you waitin’ for me, Speedy?”
“Yeah, just finished getting up, figured I’d wait.” I lied. But how do you say, ‘hey, I’m waiting for you so you don’t get brutally murdered in the street by some magical time assassin’? Well, I could say that, but I might sound a tad crazy. Okay, I’d sound a lot crazy.
Jack clapped my shoulder. “Aw, I’m touched.”
* * * # * * *
We were close, maybe a mile away from the distribution square, when stuff went down.
Jack was talking about the girl he met yesterday, in the theater and on the street, when I got this feeling that someone was following us. I whipped my head around, but no one was there.
“What’s with you?” Jack chuckled.
I shook my head. “I--it’s nothing.” I don’t know who I was trying to convince--me or Jack. “I thought I heard someone behind us.”
Jack looked behind us. “Well, there’s no one there. We’s are all safe—” An abnormally loud sound exploded somewhere off to the side of us, and I whipped my head around, the world slowing down around me. In the alleyway next to us, on the other side of Jack, I saw a dark figure holding what looked like a modern-age gun. There was a flash of light around the muzzle, and there was a bullet flying out of it. But something was wrong. The bullet was flying fast, faster than what should’ve been possible. It wasn’t a gun from my time; this was a gun from the future. Far into the future. I cursed the people who thought they needed to make guns with faster bullets. There was no time to try and grab it, it would just shred my hand. I dashed in front of Jack, and the bullet meant for his throat made its way into my shoulder. Who knew being tall saved history?
Time unfroze, and I stumbled, the force of the bullet knocking me back as it tore through my flesh and muscle. And it burned. Damn, it hurt. “What was that?” Jack asked, and I leaned on him to catch my balance. “Woah there, Speedy.” Jack chuckled and then frowned. “Wait. Weren’t you just—” He pointed to the other side of him.
“Ow.” I groaned.
Jack finally noticed the blood streaming out of my shoulder. “HOLY SHIT!” He leaned me against the side of a building and leaned over me.
“Ow.”
“When the hell did that happen?” At least he lowered his voice.
“Goddamn interdimensional time assassins with futuristic guns,” I muttered.
“What?”
“Nothing.”
“What do I do?”
“Stopping the bleeding would help.”
“Wally, you’s got a hole in your shoulder and you’s still being a smart-ass?”
“Pain sharpens my tongue.”
“You’re delusional.”
“No, I’m dying of blood loss.”
“Wally, since I’s don’t want you to die, I’mma let that slide.”
“Gee, I’m touched. Can I stop the bleeding now?” Somehow, I wrangled the vest off my chest and ripped a long strip off. I stood up, definitely with a struggle, and tied my makeshift bandage around my shoulder. My shoulder still felt like it was being melted in a forge, but it wasn’t streaming out anymore. It was less like a river and more like a creek. And then I crouched slightly, making sure my hat and bandage were securely fastened.
“What is you doin’?” Jack asked.
“Something I might regret,” I sighed. “Hop on.”
“Youse is delusional!” Jack protested. “You just got shot. I’s should be carryin’ you!”
“Jack,” I said sternly. “Get on my back before I pick you up and carry you like a bride on her honeymoon.”
He sighed. “I don’t know why we’s call you ‘Speedy’,” he grumbled. “we’s shoulda called youse Stubborn.” He hopped on my back anyway.
“Hold on tight,” I warned him.
“I ain’t grabbin’ your wound!”
“Then hold on to my neck!” Jack muttered something about me dying of strangulation before the blood loss killed me.
“Get ready,” I said, shifting my body.
“For what?”
“This.” I took off running, as fast as I could go with the shooting pain in my arm and the pain in the ass on my back.
The aforementioned pain in the ass starting yelling, swatting at the lighting around me.
In seconds, we made it to the park where we hid the Waverider. I stopped and let Jack off my back. He stumbled and threw up in a bush. “Yeah, get it out, bud.” I patted his back as he upchucked his breakfast and dinner in the bush.
“WHAT THE SHITTIN’ HOLY HELL WAS THAT?” He cried, wiping his face with his sleeve.
“Science.”
“That ain’t no science! That’s like that book Frankenstein!”
I was expecting some comic book reference or something. And then it dawned on me. I “Damn, you don’t have superheroes?”
“What?”
“Long story.”
Jack opened his mouth to say something when a bay door on the Waverider opened. Sara and Mick came out, her bo staff and his heat gun pointed directly at us.
“Wally, why the hell are you here? And why’d you bring him?” Sara yelled, lowering her staff. Mick, predictably, didn’t lower his gun.
Poor Jack was just too overwhelmed. His eyes rolled back into his head and he collapsed. Thankfully, I caught him before he fell.
“Now look what you’ve done!” I cried mockingly. “He’s out cold!” Sara and Mick just glared at me. “Can I come inside, at least?”
“We aren’t stopping you,” Sara said.
“Can you at least help me carry him inside, Mick?” I asked.
“Can’t you do it?” Mick growled.
“I would, but my arm hurts.” I motioned to the blood seeping through my makeshift vest bandage.
“Damn it, West, how’d you manage to get yourself shot?” Sara cried.
“That goddamn time assassin.”
“Care to elaborate?” Sara said, her hands on her hips.
“As long as Gideon stitches me up.”
“Of course she’s gonna—” She trailed off and sighed. “Rory, grab the kid.”
“Which one?”
“The one that’s passed out cold, genius.” While Mick grabbed the unconscious Jack, I walked into the Waverider, the pain in my shoulder slowly coming back as the adrenaline faded.
“I might need an Advil, too.” I joked.
Sara glanced at me, then at my wound. “Wally, you’re gonna need the whole damn bottle.”

The Predator 2018's problematic plan
So this is gonna be basically kind of a spoiler post for the new film. But this was something I made talking with @thelastraigeki and these are recent like from today.
I wanna say this first. Especially spoiling the movie.
But in the movie the Upgrade Predator basically wanted to take Rory the autistic 12 year old kid from the movie so he can take his spine because his autism makes him unique and helps with some shit.
I wanna tell anyone of you that may have autism or knows someone who had autism. Please be warned this could be offensive to anyone with autism but I also have autism. Especially a part of this the tile moment is something I still deal with it.
This isn't against any autistics because not every autistic person is the same we're all different. This is just a joke that seems kind of a crazy and is basically a big flaw to the Yautja's plan in this movie.
Especially talking to Rai about this I even said this would basically destroy their culture and make them go extinct. That sounds a bit harsh mom just texted me thumbs up. But also the idea the Upgrade might go insane if he ever did this or other Yautja.
Please understand I'm sorry if I took some stereotypes and things autistic people do this isn't against autistics but it's basically against the movie. Tags done now I'll paste these jokes. Just pasted it just made the sentences closer.
Elder Predator: Uhhh young one what the hell are you doing?
Upgrade: I'm trying to step on this tile just right. Especially it's too loud right now.
Elder: Why do you wanna step on the tile right?
Upgrade: If I don't everyone around might get killed.
Elder:.....are you shitting me right now?
Upgrade: Also why are we doing this? Isn't it bad I mean I feel bad about killing people. We shouldn't invade the humans they seem cool. I don't like this I just wanna play video games!
Elder:........how many of our species did we inject ourselves with autism?
A Yautja doctor: About half of the species originally it was 10 now it's half.
Elder:......we have made the worst decision ever.......glad we'll probably won't be canon anymore soon.... hopefully.
A Yautja doctor: Also our most fearsome warrior that's right above this guy the Upgrade.....he can't speak anymore and he keeps sucking his thumb and keeps hitting his head.
Elder:.....Shane what the fuck we're you thinking?
Same Yautja doctor: Also another warrior keeps running about full of energy and is making weird sounds screaming swear words.
Elder: WHAT THE FUCK SHANE!?
Upgrade: I don't wanna kill this Xenomorph it's murder!
That same Xenomorph:.......*starts laughing hysterically along with his brothers and sisters and queen*
Quinn: You actually thought autism was gonna help you guys?
Elder: Yes.....
Quinn:....glad it's not my son you killed.....yet you used the spine of a kid who has to use a tablet to speak for him and wears a helmet.
Elder: JESUS FUCKING CHRIST I'M NOT WRITING THE SCRIPT INCORPORATING AUTISM INTO THIS MOVIE'S SCRIPT WAS A FUCKING MISTAKE SHANE MADE!
Edit fixed it I forgot to say son got Rai's message.

Zombie apocalypse aus are neat. Tell me more.
oh thank you so much for asking!!!!!!!!
okay this might get long so prepare, uhhh where do i start
so basically. henry is my main character. in this au, the risen are the zombies, makes sense yknow. difference is, while most zombie media tags zombies as slow to move, slow to act, and without capability for higher thinking, the risen are still, on some level, fundamentally human. (this kind of stems from the risen’s capability to fight in awakening, and from of a support between ricken and henry; see “they’re just like us, but dead” (((: ) given, the risen are slow and not all too strong, they’re dead and decaying and atrophying- but the fresher risen, the recently turned, can in some cases rival a healthy, living human. i’m still thinking on what caused the pandemic, i’ll be honest, no haha-no-one-knows cop-out, i’ll get back to you on that. but no one knows of any cure yet, of course, or this au wouldn’t exist.
so. in a world of the living dead(?), where being a mage translates to being a gunslinger, cut to henry. was this an excuse to make henry dual wield handguns? maybe. will i apologize for it? absolutely not.
i digress. henry is the chaotic neutral/neutral evil gunslinger with incredible aim and a questionable at best moral compass. i’ve actually got a sketch of him somewhere, of him pointing a gun at someone saying “give me your stuff. or die! i win both ways!” ‘course i didn’t draw the other person, but it gets the message across. he’s generally just kind of desensitized to things. he comes from a neglectful but wealthy family (as he does in canon), so he never had much of a mentor or anyone to guide him in what’s right versus wrong. mostly he’s just interested in self-preservation, and the preservation of his birds; he’s been rescuing wounded birds (read: crows) since he was old enough to know how, and he names them bird puns and keeps them as pets, and now he’s got what’s basically a murder of loyal crows at his beck and call. they feed on the risen (and humans) he kills, and warn him when something is approaching. he trains them well. he’s the pavlov of corvids.
gaius is a slightly more morally responsible survivor, who probably raided a bass pro outdoor shop/renaissance festival as soon as the pandemic broke out. he’s got a sword, and throwing knives, and some daggers, and a bow (before it breaks and he doesn’t know how to fix it). the good thing about it is that he doesn’t spend time looking for ammo- the bad thing is he has to do a lot of maintenance on them. he is a thief, steals from encampments and sleeping lone wanderers, but he isn’t killing anyone for supplies, usually. except candy. he’d probably kill for candy if he liked the brand enough.
the shepherds are a survivors’ group dedicated to assimilating, training, and protecting fellow survivors- think alexandria, hilltop, or the kingdom from the walking dead, if you know it. their HQ is an abandoned castle, a historical landmark, that they filled with traps and alarm systems, and is practically impassable if you don’t know it. chrom founded the group, along with his (boy?)friend robin (that’s actually his nickname, because of his fighting style, not his real name).
-lissa is chrom’s little sister, an aspiring general surgeon and the current medic of the shepherds alongside maribelle, her close friend since VPK.
-frederick is a good family friend to chrom and lissa, and by extension the rest of the shepherds- he’s a war veteran and former hand-to-hand combat instructor, and does his part by training new recruits, and often acting as chrom’s and lissa’s bodyguard.
-sully is my wife also a veteran, was actually trained by frederick while still in active service. she leads a lot of patrols around their HQ, and interrogates new recruits. just to make sure.
-stahl is the resident herbalist/apothecary, it was his father’s trade and he grew up learning it. he’s often an assistant to lissa when she needs it, as he can make the salves and ointments and medicines that she needs to treat injuries. he also sometimes helps in the kitchen, because of his extensive knowledge of plants.
-miriel is their sniper, and hobbyist historian. the historian part doesn’t matter so much, but she likes to talk people’s ears off about things if they’ll let her. she’s pretty okay with math and science too, so she’ll help stahl with measurements, ratios, etc, but mostly she likes history and shooting things from 200+ yards.
-ricken is the baby boy of the shepherds. “it takes a village to raise a child” they say, and he’s the village’s child. everyone looks out for him. everyone is his parent. he is well loved and being trained by miriel in the art of sharpshooting. (he’d rather be with stahl learning how to make things.)
-donnel is their agricultural expert, and directs all their non-specialized workforce in the maintenance of their fields. he’s very strict about their schedule, about how things are planted and pruned and fertilized and harvested, about how croplands are rotated for optimal yields, but damn if the results aren’t better than anything they could’ve gotten at a market pre-apocalypse.
-virion is their bowhunter. they could use guns, but it wastes precious ammo and is loud and attracts attention, so he trains archers and leads them out on hunts when their tame livestock are running low or they feel they can risk the venture. it’s more sensible to take from the wild than their personal resources, robin says, and robin’s advice seldom fails them…
-panne and nowi are in charge of livestock (and nowi is a herpetologist on the side. she loves reptiles. she has a pet python.) panne hates to see any animals killed, but especially her babies, as she calls the one she raises, and fully supports virion and co’s ventures as long as it spares the lives of her animals. she recognizes necessity when she sees it, however, and if an animal needs to be killed for whatever reason, she does it herself, to make sure it’s quick and painless. she’s not the most social, but she and donnel get along well, and when henry joins their number she takes quickly to him and his avian following.
-generally, their guards/patrols consist of vaike, gregor, cherche, kellam, basilio, flavia my other wife, lon’qu, and say’ri. they’re alternating shifts on castle patrol, two to each group, one pair on each side of the castle, east and west. they’re always up late but they’re allowed to sleep in as compensation.
-cordelia, sumia, and libra jump around a lot, help a lot with donnel’s farming but also with out-of-camp ranging, as they’re skilled riders. cordelia helps tend to the horses, and ricken sometimes joins her.
-olivia was an aspiring actress before the pandemic, and before she became a single mother- now she’s practically a secretary, keeping their records of harvests and hunts and slaughters and rangings and patrols. she’s mentored by miriel, who adores that kind of boring work. olivia is also an excellent liar and if they ever need to negotiate with other people, she’s their go-to.
-tharja is also a sniper and everyone’s favorite hot topic membership cardholder. she and miriel like to have cynical conversations about the state of the world and complain about men with sully. the three of them definitely have a girls’ club going.
-inigo (the only child character i bothered to include) is olivia’s son to an unnamed father. his interests have always been in the performing arts field, but as that isn’t realistic anymore, he spends a lot of time with everyone. sometimes he’ll go and sit with ricken, and they’ll browse the castle library for fairy tales and folklore and read it together, and sometimes they’ll try and write their own and then perform it for everyone else, on stormy nights when the mood is dismal. they’re always stupid but they’re funny- they both have a gift for dramatic comedy- and everyone looks forward to their shows.
i feel as though i should warn people that it’s henry/gaius, though that isn’t the focus of it. it started as a bad shitpost and now it’s a ship so… [wattpad voice] don’t like don’t read, you feel

Roleplay Server Log #200
“Gk and Jean, Dolly’s Old Life, Rudolph...”
-Time skip of a few days-
[Gk] Is watching Doc cavort with Yaunfen. - So how long before you give the little one a frigging human shape too?
[Doc] Pauses - I was going to wait until they were fully vocal at least.
[Yaunfen] Rolls around, nearly turning their body into a ring-
[Doc] Part of it is just being able to get around inside peoples houses comfortably.
[Gk] Grumbles-
[Yaunfen] - Burp!
[CP] Has been watching Lie for a few days now, she's been sleeping the whole time and he's getting more anxious-
[CP] Over chat- HEY ASSHOLE!  I THINK YOU DAMAGED MY WIFE!
[Doc] in chat-  Uhhh, Cp... it would be more helpful if you just said what was wrong..
[CP] - SHE HASN'T FUCKING WOKEN UP!
[Doc] Why didn't you say something before now?! I'll be right over!
[Gk] -tags along-
[Yaunfen] Trots along and looks at GK- Fuck!
[Doc] Well that's a naughty word you've learned... - Picks Yaunfen up in hir mouth and puts them on the walkway before changing back to join hir on the balcony-
[Gk] Loafs in the yard with his head near the window-
[CP] Is sitting on the edge of the bed next to Lie, his hand entwined with hers-
[Doc] So she hasn't woken once since you took her home? Hows the horse? Is it maybe draining her like the tree did?
[CP] - She stirs every once in awhile and I've gotten a few words from her, but otherwise she's been sleeping.  And I don't know about the other two
[Doc] Well... I know one thing that might wake her. It will help if her energy is low too. She might have accidently signed herself out of creative working on the horse-
[CP] - I can check her code...
[Doc] Ah, let me try first, this is very non-invasive. I just need to use your furnace for a few minutes. Can you watch Yaunfen?
[CP] - Fine-Grumbles- Asshole
[Yaunfen] Is sniffing at GK-
[Gk] Sniffs back- Hey kiddo.
[Yaunfen] - Fuck!
[Doc] Comes back in with a heaping plate of bacon and wafts it towards Lie's face.
[Lie] Stirs and opens her eyes a little before grumbling-
[Doc] Hey it worked! I can get you some toast and eggs too if you want Lie.
[Lie] - I just wanna go back to sleep...
[CP] Brushes some of her hair out of her face- Come on, eat a little bit...
[Doc] You've been sleeping for days Lie. Do you feel ill?
[Lie] Shakes head a little- No...  Just really tired...
[Doc] Maybe I can give you a jump start. Would that help?
[Lie] - I don't know
[Doc] Okay, we'll give it a shot. I had a decent nights rest and I'm all energized- Xe puts hir hands on Lies chest and belly and forces a wave of hir power into the other brine with a crackle of statick.
[Lie] Yelps and clamps her legs shut, turning bright red- DOC!
[Doc] Pulls back in shock at her volume - Did I hurt you?! I'm sorry!
[Lie] - Doc...  Please try to remember which one is your orgasmic shock...
[CP] Growls- Dooooc...
[Doc] Also turns pink- That is not what I was trying to do!
[CP] - I'm going to fucking murder you
[Doc] She's awake now isn't she? Give me a break Cp! It was an accident!
[Lie] Leans against CP- It's okay, please drop it CP
[Doc] You tell me immediately if you start feeling that weak again.
[Lie] - I will...  Oh shoot, I left Beau at your place, didn't I?
[Doc] Yeah, but TLOT brought him back over here. And then I dropped the vinehorse off as well later that night.
[Lie] - Oh, okay, where is the vinehorse?
[Doc] In with Beau and your donkey. Markus had some choice words about it since it's in line with his living room window.
[CP] - What sort of words?
[Doc] He said it was creepy. That's all.
[CP] Snorts in amusement-
[Yaunfen] Climbs up onto the sill to bap GK's face-
[Gk] Is bapped- You gonna wrestle with the big dragon huh?
-There's a thud from above as Endrea lands on the roof-
[Endrea] - Hello GG
[Lie] Starts eating some of the bacon-
[Gk] Speaking of big dragons, what's up Endrea?
[Endrea] - Not much really, glad to be back here though, although Enderbro did enjoy being in the End
[Gk] And Steffan?
[Endrea] - Not as much
[Doc] Hey Endrea. How are the kids? Yaunfen learned a new word today...
[Endrea] - I'm surprised they haven't run up yet, Ashe wanted to try watching them
[Doc] They grow up so fast...
[oak] -has run up stairs and out the door to endrea- ma
[Gk] Turns happily towards the little one-
[Endrea] - Yes Oak?"
[oak] -nuzzles endrea-
[Endrea] Nuzzles back-
[Ashe] Runs up with Willow- Uncle GG!
[Gk] Oh no! I'm being overrun by dragons! Help help! - He rolls over on his back dramatically-
[willow] -runs over to GK and paps him-
[Gk] Arrgh.
[Endrea] Laughs a little-
[Lie] Rolls onto her belly- Kids playing is such a nice sound
[Doc] Especaily little dragons. - Xe looks over at Gk- and some big ones-
[Endrea] Climbs down to join them on the ground-
[Gk] Uses the tip of his tail to go for a belly tickle on Endrea-
[Endrea] Jumps back in surprise-
[Gk] Score one for the griefer king, haha!
[willow] -is paping gk endlessly-
[Endrea] Narrows her eyes and goes into a pouncing position-
[oak] -joins in the paping-
[Gk] Is distracted by Oak and Willow's papping-
[Yaunfen] Walks along the sill, wanting to join the others-
[Doc] Hops out the window on the opposite side and transforms, xe scuttles under the walkway and puts hir snout just outside the window for hir baby to step onto.
[Yaunfen] Happily climbs on-
[Doc] Gently lowers hir head to the ground for Yaunfen-
[Yaunfen] Runs over to join the others-
[Endrea] Pounces on GK, avoiding the babies-
[Doc] Gives into temptation and joins them in rolling around and playing.
[CP] Rolls his eyes and returns his attention to Lie-
-Beau and Stitch the donkey look on passively while the vinehorse becomes skittish-
[Mb] Comes walking up the path with Celine and veers to the side to look at the vinehorse. Loudly- what the fuck is this thing?
[Vinehorse] Spooks and trots nervously in a tight circle-
[Doc] It's a handmade horse you rude brine!
[Mb] Stares- You're fucking nuts.
[CP] Wants to punch him but decides to stay with Lie instead-
[Endrea] Looks at the new baby-
[Gk] Narrows his eyes at Celine- Where did you get that?
[Celine] Trots over-
[MB] Follows protectively - On the subseed. Where the hell do you think?
[Endrea] Offers a bit of void energy-
[Celine] Takes a little of it-
[Mb] What are you feeding her?!
[Endrea] - Void energy, a natural food source for ender dragons
[HG] -come up to the group holding his pails and still having the flitters on him-
[Mb] Huffs - She likes beef.
[Endrea] - There's no harm in void energy as well
[Gk] Who's the new guy?
[Mb] Eyeballs him- Looks weak...
[Doc] Be nice...
[HG] I'm Herobrine the gardener
[Mb] Laaaame.
[Gk] What do you grow? Just food?
[HG] all plants. if it's a plant I will help take care of it
[Endrea] - How interesting
[Gk] Gets an evil look - why don't cha' go water those little white ones in the pen greensleeves?
[HG] sure -walks over there and water the flowers-
[Doc] I should just start running now and save myself the effort....
[Endrea] - Probably
[Gk] Coward.
[Mb] What the fuck is wrong with you? They're just flowers!
[Yaunfen] - Fuck!
[Doc] My thoughts exactly...
[Endrea] Gathers her children closer-
-The honesty blossoms grow thicker and the air is filled with a slight burst of scent which vanishes-
[Mb] Dumb flowers.
[Gk] That was weird...
[HG] -comes back over-
[CP] - Lie...  I love you...  WHY THE FUCK AM I SAYING THAT OUT LOUD!?
[Notch] Comes outside. - Please don't yell...
[CP] - BUT I'M SAYING THINGS I DON'T MEAN TOO!
[Doc] Is suddenly pinned by Gk-
[Gk] Stay put-
[Doc] NO
[Mb] Turns slowly toward Notch - Hi....
[Notch] Steps back fearfully-
[CP] Notices- FUCK OFF MB!
[Mb] Are you sure? He looks delightfully afraid....
[CP] - HE'S NOT YOURS TO TERRORIZE!
[Mb] Dammit! Can't I just rough him up a bit?
[Doc] NO!
[Gk] Is just laughing-
[CP] Walks out onto the bridge- Leave. Now.
[Mb] But.... but... - his face twists as if he's trying not to say something- The kids are playing! - He slaps his hands over his mouth in horror.
[CP] - Welcome to the effect of one of my wife's flowers asshole, the Honesty blossom
[Mb] Is red-faced and really angry. He kicks a bunch of dirt blocks at Notch in his impotent rage and weirdly the blocks seem to glance away before they hit their target.
[CP] - The fuck?
[Notch] Bolts back into his house to get away from MB-
[CP] Jumps down and approaches- Behave and you can stay, I have no problem with your dragon
[Celine] Baps at Willow-
[willow] -baps back-
[Mb] Puts down a block and sits on it in a huff. He's just scowling with his lips pressed tightly closed-
[Celine] Initiates play with the others-
[Doc] Heard that Celine likes meat and offers it a rasher of bacon-
[Celine] Quickly toddles over and takes it-
[Doc] Good girl, you're an adorable little bad-ass aren't you?
[Lightfoot] -Comes bumbling toward the group, licking it's claws happily. It's snout looks to be covered in blood at first glance- ! -Hunches down a bit and stares at Doc's hand and the bacon-
[Doc] Drops the rest of the bacon in a panic and scrambles to get Yaunfen.-
[Endrea] Relaxes in the sunlight-
[Lie] Steps outside, having seen what happened with Notch-
[Lightfoot] -Nyooshes toward Doc at top speed and tries to snatch some bacon-
[Doc] Grabs Yaunfen and holds them high in their mouth, they're dancing around trying to avoid the small predator-
[Gk] Roars at the lightfoot-
[Mb] Runs forward to grab Celine as well-
[Endrea] Growls-
[HG] -hugs is pails protectively and runs to the green house-
[Lightfoot] -Lets out a triumphant noise as they dash away from Doc with Bacon in claw- !!! Yes! -Shoves it into mouth as they skid to turn and rush away-
[Lie] Confused she goes over to Notch's place and knocks on the door-
[Doc] Puts Yaunfen on hir shoulders, - what the fuck was that?!
[Notch] Peeks out-
[CP] - I don't fucking know
[Lie] - Hey, are you okay?
[Lightfoot] Maybe another?? -Has skidded off but very clearly still visible, eyeing Doc some-
[Doc] warning growl-
[Lightfoot] Not scary! -just, yells. wow.-
[Mb] Should I roast em?
[Gk] Turns quickly, whipping his tail out at the lightfoot-
[Doc] You get any closer I'll show you how scary I am!
[Endrea] Gives off a blast of void energy-
[Notch] Yeah, I didn't get hit or anything.
[Lightfoot] Ah! -ducks back and growls. It's not very intimidating-
[Lightfoot] That a little scary.
[Gk] Is a bit annoyed now and rears up to spread his wings and paw out with his front hooves-
[Lie] - So I noticed...  It just seemed to, bounce away...
[HG] -come back slowly trying to stay far from the light foot ready to bolt again if needed-
[Notch] I didn't do anything. I was just thinking about how I didn't want to be hit...
[Lie] - Maybe it's a development of your powers?
[Notch] Maybe...
[Lightfoot] -Bounces slightly and eyes Doc, before eyeing the rest- Worth it... Not worth it...
[Lightfoot] Maybe ask?... -Scoots a little bit closer to them, but not much-
[Doc] Narrows hir eyes-  Ask what?
[Lightfoot] What was.. Round edible thing! Filled with sweet?
[Gk] Settles down to four feet again. - Round like a ball or round like a disk?
[Lie] - Are you sure you don't want to join us?
[Notch] Maybe.... I just don't want to be around people fighting right now...
[Lightfoot] Flat round!
[Gk] A pie?
[Lie] - I think MB will behave so long as Celine is wanting to play...
[Notch] Okay... - follows Lie-
[Doc] You want a frigging pie?!
[Lightfoot] Pie? Is that what it was? Tasted good!
[Lightfoot] -very seriously- Yes.
[Doc] Oh for... - xe opens the creative and spawns several pumpkin pies before laying them down.
[Lie] - So how have you and Flux been?
[Lightfoot] -Scuttles up to them and grabs one, taking a bite before plunking down to eat it fully. That was surprisingly easy.-
[Lightfoot] -Now that it's closer, its easy to see the red on it's snout is pie filling-
[Notch] Twiddles his fingers a bit. - I think I'm in love with her... But I don't think she feels the same way. It's like she's not used to having emotions. I don't want to take advantage of her.
[Doc] Nervously hunkers back down so Yaunfen can reach the ground
[Lie] - Hmmm, well Dawn did say her primal instincts chakra was pretty much non existent...
[Mb] Puts Celine next to Yaunfen with a grudging look
[Yaunfen] Sniffs Celine all over-
[Celine] Squeaks and baps Yaunfen-
[HG] is it safe now?
[Notch] I hope she comes around. I feel liek I have a stomach full of butterflies when she's totally focused on me.
[Doc] I think so...
[Lie] - Just remember, this is all completely new to her, she probably doesn't know how to really react or what to do, she may be depending on you to show her
[Notch] Any suggestions?
[Lie] - Maybe a date?
[Gk] Eyeballs the lightfoot - what are you? You look familiar....
[Notch] Flowers? Candy? Moonlight boatride?
[Lightfoot] Lightfoot. -Grabs another pie to eat, having finished the first in record time-
[Lie] - Hmmm, I could try making some flowers for you to give her...
[Notch] Nothing sneaky okay? I don't want to influence her...
[Mb] sneaks a pie-
[Lie] - Oh absolutely not...  Um, other than that you'd be better off asking TLOT
[Lightfoot] -glares at mb-
[Mb] Winds up and throws the pie at Notch- Think fast!
[Notch] His eyes widen for a second and there's the barest flash of light as the pie hits something invisible before it reaches him and Lie-
[Doc] HEY!
[Lie] - Um...
[CP] Growls- MB....
[Mb] Ah, so the wimpy Notch does has a power! How cute.
[CP] Punches MB for throwing a pie at his mate-
[Mb] Falls over with a very dark black eye. He's still laughing though
[Doc] Notch? How did you do that?
[Notch] I didn't do anything!
[HG] -is messing around with the ground bellow him-
[Gk] Notices- What are you doing now?
[HG] just making a more fertile block of dirt
[Gk] Lie has plenty of horse poop if you want any...
[HG] I don't need it -the dirt block now is void of grass but the dirt is a deep fertile brown-
[Lie] - Notch, you've blocked things coming at you twice now...
[Lightfoot] -watching them all while stuffing the final pie into it's mouth-
4:58 PM] Dr. Franken Stein: [Doc] So, do you guys think it's time to check on the other babies?
[Endrea] - What for?
[Doc] To see if any of them are verbal or otherwise? We did promise to move them to the gifted class so to speak in that case.
[CP] - Who exactly are you proposing go?
[Doc] Well I guess I could go by myself. I was just asking...
[Gk] Fuck it, I'll go.
[Endrea] - Not by yourself, I'll go as well
[Mb] Oh, are me and gruesome here on babysitting duty? -thumbs at Cp-
[Doc] Bristles-
[Lightfoot] Where? go where?
[CP] - Yeah not trusting you with this responsibility, Doc, you're staying here
[HG] -keeps change blocks to very fertilize soil-
[Doc] Not trusting me? That's some nerve.
[Gk] Just fucking stay. You can watch the babies.
[Endrea] Stands and stretches- We shall at least need your assistance to get in Doc
[Doc] Grumbles a bit- Xe nudges Yaunfen close to Cp and gives him a sharp look. - I'lll be back in a matter of moments.
[CP] - How many times have I raised Endrea?  Yours will be fine
[Doc] Slinks along the ground like an angry cat and slithers down the hole that leads to the cage.
[Gk] Snorts-
[Mb] Makes a face at Yaunfen
[Endrea] Shifts to her human form to follow-
[Yaunfen] - FUCK!
[CP] Snorts in amusement-
[Gk] Changes shape as well to follow-
[Doc] Opens the way and fidgets while they go through before bolting off again.
[Endrea] Once through she stretches back into her dragon form-
[Gk] Does the same -Ahhh. Wanna go make faces at the NOTCHs?
[Endrea] - I think Doc may get mad at us for that...  CP has mentioned that many of them are truamatized
[Gk] Okay... I'm just playing around. Mb's such a spring buck. Been feeling my oats lately.
[Endrea] Laughs a little- Come on, let's see what has grown!
[Gk] This is gonna be one hell of a seed when they're all grown. I caught glimpses of some really strange breeds when they were hatching.
[Endrea] - Indeed- She flaps her wings and takes off into the air
[Gk] Gets a bit of a running start and launches himself as well. He's smaller then her and it's a strange feeling.
[Endrea] Searches the ground, spotting a few very small dragons and a few slightly larger ones playing with them-
[Gk] The air seems fairly empty, I guess most are too small to fly yet.
-Immediately after he says that a small two tailed dragon darts past, it's wings are rather fairy like and it's body covered in pale blue feathers, it chirps curiously at the two larger dragons-
[Gk] Weird... But hey. They're healthy and happy. That's the best ya can hope for sometimes.
-It darts away-
[Endrea] - I wonder if it will get much bigger...
[Gk] Eh, you'll still probably be the biggest in the end.
[Endrea] - A down side to my coding I suppose
[Gk] You know, you could have Doc look at it.... There might be a way to cap your growth.
[Endrea] - Perhaps, but for the moment we need to look for more dragons
[Gk] What the hell is that... ?
-There's a ridge of ground thats undulating in a straight line down below-
[Endrea] - I think another dragon...
-The ground breaks for a monemt and theres a flash of a sand-brown head before a long bodied dragon dives back down into the soil like a sandworm-
[Endrea] - Such variation in my species
[Gk] Player mods... I'm suprised we didn't get some fucking dinosaurs out here by accident. Hey look at that! What a doofy looking dragon, and way bigger then the others.
[Junior] Is moseying along with his long tongue hanging out. He's a mostly normal enderdragon but his wings are far too tiny to do anything but fan his chubby body.
[Endrea] - Er...  Yes...
[Gk] Those derped eyes look familiar actually...
[Endrea] - I wouldn't know why...
[Gk] Lands near Junior and gives him the hairy eyeball-
[Junior] slow blink, one eye then the other like a frog-
[Endrea] Lands near him- GG...
[Jean] Comes roaring over a hill - GET AWAY FROM MY BABY!
[GK] YOU!
[Endrea] Steps between Jean and GK-
[Jean] Digs into the ground to stop herself and huffs a bit-
[Gk] Why is she here!?
'[Endrea] - It wasn't my intention at first, but it will piss your NOTCH off...
[GK] Stamps his hooves- It makes me angry too! This bitch made my existence pure torment for months!
[Jean] Because I did what NOTCH wanted! You're the one who tried to kill Steffan!
[GK] IT WAS PRACTICALLY MY JOB.
[Endrea] - GG, please calm down
[Jean] Takes the opportunity to get Junior behind her-
[Gk] Is just blowing little flames out of his nose and huffing angrilly-
[Endrea] - GG I will sit on you if you don't calm down
[Gk] Can't I just kick her once?!
[Jean] I don't deserve that!
[Endrea] - As much as I'd enjoy seeing that, no
[GK] Is even more red then usual and the grass around his hooves is smoldering a bit- I HATE HER.
[Jean] I hate you too!
[Endrea] - And I dislike her as well, but think about this, we have taken away more from your NOTCH then anyone else.  You have more than him for the first time
[Gk] Is just fuming with his face scrunched in a pout.
[Jean] You should be happy anyway! You're a dragon again!
[Endrea] - GG, please, let's just move on and do what we were sent here to do
[Gk] I will... because you asked. But I won't like it!
[Endrea] Reaches over and nuzzles GK- You never do
[Ashe] Rolls around with Yaunfen a bit-
[Yaunfen] - Burp!  Burp!
[willow and oak] -follow the two dragons-
[Doc] You guys are so cute.
[Notch] Wanders over, hoping for a distraction from Lie's questions.
[Mb] Gives Notch a questioning look.
[CP] Is floating above so he doesn't get rolled into-
[Ashe] He and Yaunfen then proceed to roll into MB-
[Mb] Is knocked down and swears rather viciously.-
[Notch] Snorts-
[Ashe] - Oops...  Sorry...
[Mb] Shut up or I'll knock your block off, stupid NOTCH.
[Notch] Esh...
[CP] - I'd think first you'd have to get out from under those dragons
[Mb] Shoves them off him-
[HG] -there is now a large patch of fertilized dirt block and as grass takes over to make them grass blocks the grass is taller stronger and healthier-
[willow] -goes over to MB- bok
[Yaunfen] Surprised noise-
[Ashe] Carefully watches Willow- Willow...
[Mb] Yeah, whatever.
[willow] bok
[Celine] Goes over to MB to check him out-
[HG] -is watering the grass-
[willow] -goes over to ashe and paps him-
[Ashe] - What is it Willow?
[willow] -pounces on ashe-
[Ashe] Rolls over- Willow!  Ha ha!
[willow] -paps ashe again before jumping off of him and running circles around him-
[Ashe] Laughing, gets up and stretches, there's a popping noise as his goggles fall to the ground have broken as he grew with the stretch-
[oak] -is eating some of the tall grass-
[Doc] Whoah... Time to fix your goggles again... - Xe takes them up and starts repairing the strap.
[Ashe] Makes a series of clicking noises-
[willow] -paps doc's leg before running around hir-
[Doc] Easy kiddo, I'm trying to fix your brothers eyewear
[Ashe] Hesitantly starts walking around-
[willow] -flops on her back and wiggles her legs in the air-
[Celine] Licks MB-
[oak] -throws up the grass on lie's steps before going back to running around-
[Mb] small smile- good girl...
[Doc] Ummm
[Lie] - What is it Doc?
[Doc] Just a little bit of dragon barf...
[Lie] - Oh dear...
[Dolly] Comes up the path and stands under Cp, she's trying to think of a good way to get his attention.
[Ashe] Makes some more clicking noises-
[oak] -sees dolly and goes over to them and paps her-
[Doc] Finishes the goggles and puts them back on Ashe- Here you go.
[Ashe] - Thank you
[Dolly] Eyes the little dragon nervously- hello...
[CP] Glances down-
[oak] -runs around dolly-
[Dolly] Cp... can I talk to you? Privately?
[CP] Frowns a little- Why?
[Dolly] Because I'm told you're good with... dreams...
[CP] Comes down to the ground and start walking towards the house- Follow me
[oak] -tries to follow them-
[CP] - No Oak, go play with your sister
[oak] -run off and pounces on willow who rolls around with him-
[Dolly] Follows nervously-
[CP] Closes the door behind them as they enter the workroom- What do you want to know?
[Dolly] I have a recurring dream... I know it's the same, but it's like something is blocking me from recalling the specifics.
[CP] - Oh?  And what do you want me to do?
[Dolly] Can you just, watch? Tell me what happens? Or why it seems like there's a hole in my mind? You're used to dealing with things playing games with your thoughts, aren't you?
[CP] - Usually I'm the one doing it.  When do you want to do this?
[Dolly] Up to you. I'm rather nervous about what you might find, but it might cast some light on the craziness I've been plunged into since just before coming here.
[CP] - Well I can make you sleep whenever you want, but I'm assuming you'd want somebody there other than me there as well to make sure everything goes alright
[Dolly] No... I know that it was a risk for TLOT to join in someone else's dreams last time, and honestly, that grinning dog makes me nervous.
[CP] - Eh, Smile is pretty harmless unless you've seen his photo
[Dolly] I'm just not a dog person... - Her thoughts are plain, the cruel eyes and slavering jaws of the upright wolves she narrowly escaped.
[CP] - Alright, again, just let me know when you want to do this, I can literally put you to sleep right now
[Dolly] Gives a tiny twitch. - Y-yes... I think I need to know....
[CP] Sighs and puts down a bed- Go ahead and lay down then
[Dolly] Does as she's told. she doesn't trust Cp much at all, but she knows the others saw her enter the house with him and would surely come looking for her if she never awakened or left again.
[CP] Gives the tiniest flicker of power to send Dolly into a sleep before putting down a block to sit on and entering the dream himself-
-He gets a glimpse of a field in spring before something black obscures it and pushes on him very hard-
[CP] Growls and pushes back-
-There's a featheryness to the pressure-
[CP] - What the fuck is this?
[Dolly] Is also fighting, the memory is being suppressed intentionally-
[CP] Draws his sword- This is no match for me- He slices his sword through the mass
[Xophiel] Emerges from the brain fog and shoves Cp down beneath a massive hand- WHY ARE YOU FIGHTING WHAT I HAVE MADE?
[CP] - Because I was fucking asked to you asshole!
[Xophiel] SHE DOES NOT NEED TO KNOW. THE WORK IS COMPLETE.
[CP] - But she wants to know
[Xophiel] SHE IS CURIOUS YES. BUT WHY REMIND HER OF A LIFE LONG GONE?
[CP] - Because why not?
[Xophiel] BECAUSE TO KNOW COULD PUT HER SOUL BACK ON AND OLD PATH. REPEATING PAST MOTIONS AND TASKS SHE HAS EARNED HER REST FROM.
[CP] - See, now you've got me curious as well, I wanna know what's in there now
[Xophiel] THAT IS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO HER. SHE WOULD BE OBSESSED.
[CP] - So?  Not gonna stop me, and I will find a way in- Already his powers are branching out, trying to find weak points where he can begin to gain control
[Xophiel] INSOLENT PEST! - He's already trying to counter with his own powers
[CP] Teleports beyond the entity, shifting back into old habits of sneaking through dreams to effectively scare the victims-
-The scene opens up again. It's a bright morning in spring. The field around him is full of flowers glistening with dew. There are no houses in view, but there are several strange contraptions scattered around. Sets of four pegs in the ground, holding up the corners of several sheets streched like low hammocks over the grass. There's the cry of a falcon high in the air above-
[CP] Skulks around, trying to find Dolly in the dream-
-There's a little bit of sound down the field. A man and a woman carrying a large bowl. The falcon swoops down and lands on the man's upraised wrist. He looks at the woman lovingly. Their clothes are that of old English peasantry.
[CP] - The fuck is this bullshit?
-The couple begin taking the sheets down and wringing the dew into the bowl. There's a distinctly smoky smell from the man-
[CP] Is getting curious about what they're doing-
[Xophiel] Swats Cp flat from behind, He's reduced his size a lot but his weird proportions are even more upsetting at a small scale. His feet are nearly as long as Cp's entire legs, but his birdlike head is roughly the same size as a humans.
[CP] - THE FUCK WAS THAT FOR!?
[Xophiel] NOSY INSOLENT PUP! THIS IS NOT FOR YOU TO SEE. WHAT THEY DO IS HOLY.
[CP] - So?
[Xophiel] IF I TELL YOU, WILL YOU LEAVE?
[CP] - Maybe
[Xophiel] THAT IS HER. -He gestures to the smiling man- A PAST LIFE.
-The couple are pouring the dew into a large glass flask-
[CP] - Past life huh?  What era?
[Xophiel] THE YEAR IS 1686.
[CP] - Huh, I think that might be about the time Splender came around...
[Xophiel] HE SERVED ME AND WAS REWARDED.
[CP] - And her?
[Xophiel] SHE WAS A HELPMATE TO HIM IN THE GREAT WORK AND CHOSE TO STAY IN THE AETHERS. HE RETURNED TO EARTH AFTER A LONG AND WELL EARNED REPOSE. FOR A SINGULAR PURPOSE. TO WATCH OVER SOMEONE.
[CP] - Wait, so he's Dolly?
[Xophiel] YES.
[CP] - Huh, well, so far all this looks fucking harmless as fuck
[Xophiel] IT IS BECAUSE YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE GREAT WORK, IT IS AN ALL CONSUMING TASK. BODY AND SOUL MUST BE COMMITTED, IT WOULD BE A GRAVE DISTRACTION FROM HER PURPOSE NOW.
[CP] - And what would she be doing?
[Xophiel] SEEKING THE STONE THAT IS NOT A STONE, ONENESS, THE KEY TO THE MUTABILITY OF MATTER INTO IT'S MOST PERFECT FORM. THE VERY SIGHT OF IT CAN MAKE A MORTAL SEEK IT ENDLESSLY. SHE MUST REMAIN UNCONNECTED, OR THE BEAST WILL FIND HER BEFORE THE CHILD IS READY TO FACE IT.
[CP] - You mean Zeke?  And what fucking beast?
[Xophiel] Gives Cp a hard look - YOU HAVE NO NEED TO KNOW. BUT IT'S KIN IS NO STRANGER TO YOU.
[CP] - I'm guessing you mean something related to Insanity?
[Xophiel] passes a hand over Cp's face and everything goes black -
[CP] Is surprised when he regains consciousness on the floor of the work room- THAT FUCKER- He wakes Dolly from the dream
[Dolly] Groggly awakens - Cp?
[CP] Growls a bit- That fucking angel of yours is trying and failing to keep some nightmares at bay, that's all that's happening
-On the outside theres a bit of a disturbance as something ponderous enters Slender's woods.-
[Slender] Senses the intruder and growls as he puts his book down- Offender, I'll be right back...
[Offender] Looks up from the floor where he's coloring with Sally- Alright, be careful bro
[Slender] Teleports out into his woods-
-The shambling form is moving slowly, as if the slightest step was pain. There's a muted red light from where it's eyes should be. -
[Slender] Releases a burst of static in warning-
-The figure just stands there, there's nothing electrical in it. It's barely alive. It's close enough to see that the eyes are actually a cluster of three on each side, and the head is long and misshapen like an alligators maw.
[Slender] Growls as he emerges from the tree's- Leave, you are trespassing
-The thing is struggling, it's obvious it can't speak but wants too desperately. It seems to be encased in a large sack of some kind that fits it's form.
[Slender] His tendrils come out, snaking forwards as he reaches for the creatures mind-
-The flickering fragment of soul still bears a name - Rudolph.
[Slender] - This is your last warning, leave!- There's a whisper of a voice in his mind as Insanity suggests possession of the creature before him
-The creature gets down on it's short knees, raising it's hands up in a pleading gesture. The hands are huge, three long claws with no thumb.
[Slender] Frowns but movement catches his attention as the scent of human drifts through the air.  A low staticky hiss comes from Slender's throat- I'll deal with you in a moment
[Rudolph] Turns toward the noise. His jaws opening in a menacing way as his eyes narrow.
[Slender] Pauses waiting to see what this other creature will do as the human stumbles into sight-
[Rudolph] Struggles to his feet, he strikes out at the human with a giant paw but the blow is obviously weak-
-The human screams and stumbles backwards, only to be impaled by one of Slender's tendrils-
[Slender] - Hmm, seems you could be of use, but you lack energy...
[Rudolph] Stumbles, barely catching his lumbering form before it crashes into the ground. His burlap covering is streaked with dried blood that does not belong to him.
[Slender] - Follow me

time to think about various story ideas ive had, yeehaw
ACitDS - Thomas trying to find their parents amidst the angel/demon war. pretty neat. I wanted to make a game out of it so the player could decide which way Thomas swung in terms of angel/demon, giving leeway for players who made mechanical choices against the ‘moral’ choice (cause like, split progression, man. it was gonna be pretty flexible and based mostly on choices within the world, though one route was locked behind a specific skill progression).
ACB - ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. war story about a commander trying to protect their homeland, except they arent even a commander in that homeland, and also its just really complicated. I like the individual characters i guess, even if im pretty sure Black themself was... not... my best character. I’ve made more ableist ones (hhhhhh) but that wasn’t my finest, so acb would need a total rehaul to fix that sorta thing. characters neat though.
SFY/414 - the whole gang of criminals help a guard catch other criminals story. or gay suicide squad, as you wish. i like my characters, and i like a whole lot of it, and i like the world. the core premise is a lil shaky but if you get past it, fun times, i think. i love tamjol especially.
SFY/425 - i dont know shit about the civil war plot except that tamjol is there and gets accused of being a traitor after his group finds out he’s a Shonyul, thats a fun one. thats basically the only thing i know for certain about it, that those scenes happen, and maybe one where he confronts his “father” directly, idk, weird stuff all around.
SFY/BTH/386 - sailing time. theres a storm, a mutiny, a second bloodier mutiny, and then a whole ass dragon eats like 2 whole boats without warning, god damn.
CCC - we have established i think that idea slapped i just never wrote shit. i dont remember any of their names. i just know some fuckers got lazered in the chest. tight.
Codename Seren - oh no
Codename Sworl - uhhh bunch of aliens get sent to earth disguised as teen girls to track down a different group of aliens. i remember nothing except that the sworl Charlotte ended up falling in love with a girl called Aaliyah (??????) who was actually one of the enemy aliens, and also that the sworl overlords were trash. everything else, big ol’ no clue.
EC - former MC fanfic, crystal’s sister and BIL get kidnapped by the goddess of fire in order to get the city (of which the BIL is like, the prince?) to do a bunch of specific things so that the fire goddess can release the imprisoned goddess of darkness. also one of the members of the motley gang crystal acquires is actually the fire goddesses missing daughter, and another is the descendant of some of the dark gods closest attendants who bailed and were hunted down. and the other dude is like. the son of a ghost? like? a ghost? like his human ass father found a portal to an afterlife realm and fucked one of the librarians and now their kid is half fucking ghost, I dont get it, also the man had a wife so uh W. Skye’s dad was messed.
GGS - hell yea. gods forming pacts with a bunch of youngsters who die in tragic circumstances (one was a car accident, another got crushed by a tree, and a pair got caught in a burning house). fun times. the car one had the war goddess as her partner and was able to summon a magic gun, the tree one had the god of time and fought with a magic sword while his COMPLETELY HUMAN sister kept tagging along on his missions and using a dustbin lid as a shield to help him out. nice. i love them all.
KoA - i dont remember whats happening there except that one of the kids was like, iron resistant? so she could use magic even when in iron? and fter they got captured by the govt or whatever they found out about her power and things escalated and im like 90% sure they fucking. hit her on the head with a shovel and killed her? i. i dont know why that was what i decided should happen in my novel but there you go, huh. her sister was very upset and i think ended up finding out she was iron resistant too? i dont remember the plot of this.
Kingdom Keys  - crocodile minigame and a littol skeleton man. basically if you found three keys you could access this area and get a wish granted by the goddess, and the skeleton dude had tried this previously and sort of failed? its kind of unclear but i think it was that he’d adventured with the main girls mother for the keys and i think she died? so then he used his wish to save her life? or the other way around? i think he died trying to get either the 1st or 2nd key and at the end the mother made it to the goddess and used her wish to bring him back, except he was a skeleton for Uh Reasons (how fucking long did it take???) and then i think the mother died after, i DONT know. i just remember littol skeleton boy man dude. he was like, 16 but also like 40, i think, i AM Unclear
Mermaid Cafe - there is no plot to mermaid cafe except that a mermaid like, comes on land and hides her identity, goes to a cafe by the sea one day to be a little closer to home, and then gets trapped along with a bunch of other people when the sea goes Very Bad. it was a very weird dream.
Minds Eye - ? gods claim your kids when theyre born and raise them? there was no further plot. i dont remember shit.
Mistakenbound - the last gasp of my hs phase, may it rest in peace. some heart player got murdered for revolution b4 the game starts but persisted as a ghost and pretended to be a blue blood, which while it was based more off the story of Rhia from COdename Seren, is a fuck of an aradia ripoff, whoopsie fucking Daisies
LOTMV - light demigod gets “kidnapped” by a dark demigod, sparks a war, very complicated, i mostly like it. one draft had the light demigod killing her shitty soldier ex-boyfriend at the end of the story after he almost murders the dark demigod, who has all but become her gf in the time since she left home. fun stuff.
Puppeteers Rebellion - buncha voodoo shit, smth about voodoo being outlawed and a countess using her powers in it to try and overthrow the kingdom, being foiled by the princess who she had (inadvertently?) been training at a sewing circle thing. i think?
Re:Memory - rebirth where your actions in your previous two lives determine your class, protag is class 1 (worst) because her last lives where a fucking infant and a murderer. befriends the princess (class 7) and idk what the hell were they planning to do but it was gonna be smth.
RiH - story about a thief with a metal arm trying to save the metal forest from an unnatural rust, aided by a knight who is one of the few people who actually notices their presence. was actually an MSPFA, ripperino, i still have like, 4 panels total and nothing else.
Royalty Story - uhhh country being run by Queen Adelaide acting as regent for her like, 21 year old son, but then she gets taken captive by this woman named Hazel who starts running the kingdom, forcing Adelaides three kids to flee the castle and try and find a solution. idk what was going on. the kids were Jackson, Morgan, Lillian, in order, iirc? cause the naming scheme was -an (sound). i thought it was neat. Lillian was the only one who shortened her name, to i like just Lilli, but Jackson was never Jack. they were neat.
SoaCS - pirate sets off a curse that means they are followed by a terrible icy storm, ends up being cast overboard by their (new) crew and saved by a woman on an island, who then also helps them escape when the storm ravages her home. then they go on a whole thing try to fix the mistake that HE made, resulting in them going back to where he had abandoned his crew in search of treasure. lotta fun. he even directly saves her life at a point where he had failed/refused to save one of his old partners last time, which was neat, but overall she was saving his ass. fun times. never wrote much for that.
Shadow Huntress- idk theres a girl called Blake and shes aways running because she thinks if she stops people will notice the scars of battle with like, The Darkness. physical battle, but also the emotional toll. ends up mentoring a few of her classmates who became hunters sort of incidentally. idk.
TDoC - so theres a demon king in the center of the lake, and around this lake are a bunch of cities with demon lords. and you have to kill the demon lords in order in order to be able to access the demon king and kill him. and there was a mechanic in place where you could only kill one demon lord/king. so the new party who is trying to free themselves from demon rule is accompanied by a group who tried many years prior, and in the first battle one of them fucking dies while trying to kill the lord because it turns out! that in the last attempt! he had succeeded in laying the final blow, and his soul was forever weakened and could not withstand the demonic energy this time, so from the outside he basically stabbed down at this demon lords week spot and then the second his blade made contact there was a burst of energy and he collapses like a sag of bricks who barely lives to the end of the battle to explain what happened. that was neat. i like the idea of the party by the time they get to the demon king being people who had all killed a demon lord, meaning they shouldnt be able to kill the king, but then they all manage to deal the final blow together, with their combined souls withstanding the initial burst of energy and killing him. whether they all die afterwards or just kinda pass the fuck out to be found by their allies outside who react to the demonic death wail, idk. i think its neat. that end sounds kinda cliche but presumably they had their best soldiers (demon killers) and then a handful of people with them who HADNT killed a demon who should have been able to, except the king could fucking smell em and wiped the floor with them early, knocking them out or killing them to focus on toying with the ones he wanted revenge on. I’m down for that. cause then its slightly less of a like, “twist”, since in the planning to kill the king SOMEONE would have noticed that they had to send some non-heroes :P So make sure you do, I guess.
TFOS - princess vs dragon, she has a gun and she wants revenge for her older sister and aso to save her kingdom. aided by a mage a knight and a rogue, bunch of lesbian mfers fighting dragons, Nice.
TFT - proto GGS, main difference was that becoming a demigod was essentially randomised and that there was like. a god of computers. who i think i reworked as a god of technology? or something? tech generally, not computer tech. idk. cherry was cute.
WTDD - the worlds surface is a series of spinning gears with cities and towns on them, and the gears all powered a music box below the earth which kept this colossal dragon asleep. and then one day the gears stop and the dragon wakes up. something like that. the initial thing was world is gears, but id probably shift it to a city or an area? cause the idea of a city constantly rotating sucks ass. admittedly that was straight up the reason the gears stopped in the initial writing, because the villain (??) was sick of the rotation ad fucking. blew a gear up. nice.
YD3N - uhh bunch of robots? one for eac letter of the alphabet (so there was Aden, Byden, Cyden, Dyden, Eden, etc) and Yd3n was the source of all of them. and then a robot called syd3n manages to escape and finds the aid of a local engineer called Ignis Lex, and they try to free their siblings and especially Yd3n, and find out the purpose for the alphabet crew. fun fact, this entire story came about because on the way home from uni I saw a dude in front of me with a jumper that said ‘Sydney’, except the last y was covered and my brain misread what was left as Syden, which is why theyre the protag. Neat.
thats the only ones listed. its missing a few, but i dont remember them much or have names for them :P

Ten Questions Meme
Tagged by @prycarious​ oohhh, this tag game is fun every time (sorry this took a little while!)
I know you’re supposed to make your own ten at the end of this one, but I’m too lazy this round. Sorry.
1. What kind of genre do you like to write? Why?
My true love is and will always be Fantasy (with SciFi right behind). One of the biggest reasons is it allows me to write a bazillion different characters, and none of them have to be human.
Also, dragons. Naturally. ;)
2. Which do you like writing better, heroes or villains?
Oh definitely heroes. People get way more upset when you’re mean to them. :333 And the purehearted ones that just wanna do the right thing are so cute. What precious angels. 10/10, would ruin their lives and make them cry again.
I also tend to write super super outright horrible evil villains, and it’s just hard to like em. They're a bunch of mean, monstrous assholes with not a lot of redeeming qualities. The only time I really enjoy writing them is during their death scenes, or scenes where they get smacked down by a bigger bad lol
3. Do your characters have a favorite type of weather?
Well, sure, many do. SS loves snow, Victor loves the rain, Val and Vithmon adore hurricanes, Maika relates to Etak’s dust storms, Rewill likes it when it’s dead still/quiet, etc.
But I mean by this point I have so many different characters with different likes and dislikes that this question isn’t exactly on I can answer conclusively lol
4. Romantic or platonic relationships?
I enjoy writing both immensely. I just love giving my characters deep meaningful relationships, first and foremost. But I gotta say, letting them kiss and junk is 👌 👌 👌
5. Which OC of yours would you get along with best?
Uhh, well, there are very few of them to choose from since they’d all personally try to murder me with their bare hands, but...I’m inclined to say Sri Lok or Hadrian, but they get along with everyone. Going on current projects, I’ll say Rewill. He’s a cool dude. Grounded. Fun to talk to. Very open minded. 10/10 would have him piggy-back me across the space station.
6. Would you survive in your OCs’ world? Why or why not?
NOPE. DEFINITELY NOT. AS A HUMAN I AM WEAK AND SQUISHY AND IN A LAND FULL OF GODS AND DEMONS AND MONSTERS THAT IS NOT SOMETHING YOU WANT TO BE.
In the world Pryza takes place in, I’d probably have a better chance. But between alien takeovers, spacecraft sabotage, and general lack of safety regulations in the colonies, the odds would still be stacked against me lol. (Maybe if I lived on Earth there I’d be okay..)
7. What would you say is one of your “quirks” as a writer?
I’ll be real I wasn’t really sure how to answer this one as I’m bad at analyzing my own work in any way. So I asked a friend what they thought and got: “Sassy ass characters who are actually squishy inside.” I always have one of those. Always. (also a cinnamon roll. sometimes they are the same character.)
I also have a habit of splitting my books in two acts, the first being heavy in character building with an easy-going (even if action filled) plot, then hitting the second and cranking things up to max so that everyone is screaming and running and there’s chaos in the streets and are you sure this is the same book you’ve been reading???? 
Honestly idk, I see myself as a pretty bland, vanilla writer. I don’t think anything about my work really ~stands out~ enough to be considered a quirk. Is my quirk being typical and kinda forgettable?? It seems that way. *shrug*
8. Are there any writing “rules” that you break consistently? Ie commonly said rules that you just don’t follow?
“NEVER USE SAID/ADVERBS HURR DURR” is a “rule” I pretty proudly snub. But uhhh, not reeaalllyyy? I think that to some degree I follow the guidelines in place for my genre/style/intention.
That said there’s only one rule I follow completely and that is “there are no rules”
9. What does “show don’t tell” mean to you?
This one is kind of a poster child of “poorly given writing advice” to me. Because the way it’s given, people take it outright and turn around to scream “TELLING IS ALWAYS BAD!!” when that’s not what’s intended, exactly? You can’t put definites on the arts. It goes against everything they are.
To me it’s just a warning to not deliver the entire story as a sequence of action inputs in a text adventure game. You gotta lean into description where it fits, and be blunt where it’s called for. It’s a very contextual thing that you gotta play by ear.
I realize this barely answers the question but that’s because “show don’t tell” doesn’t really mean ANYTHING to me. It’s an incomplete statement that leaves so much unspoken that it’s left essentially worthless.  
10. Post a recent snippet of your writing. Do you like it?
“For what it is worth, I am sorry you had to pay the price for my mistake,” Meecha said. I peeked back to see the pair regarding one another with rigid expressions. Finally, Reegil swallowed and bowed his head.
“You took responsibility, as you said. Our payments were the same in the end,” he replied. Chewing my lip, I pushed myself to stop eavesdropping and moved onward as his final words crept into my ears with ominous weight. “I only hope you are not forced to pay it again.”
It’s aight. I think it carries the impact I want it to, and that’s all I can really ask of it. ;o
.
If  you want to do these questions yourself can feel free~ I’ll tag on the next one. ;D
