My headcanon that always comes up is that Ace and Sabo are both protective of Luffy, just in a different way. Sabo will threaten to kill anyone who dates his brothers, while Ace is more calm but trust me he is much worse.

Someone : So what would you do if someone asked for permission to marry your brother?

Sabo : I will look up their entire history, make sure Luffy wasn't forced, make them swear loyalty to Luffy, and plan their funerals. Oh yeah and then bla bla bla bla

Ace : I will see their intentions and see how it all turns out

Someone : What do you think about people who date Luffy?

Sabo : They are the most disgusting creatures in this world, and they should burn in hell fire above the world

Ace : Idk, depends if they are cool or not

Someone : What if someone breaks Luffy's heart?

Sabo : They better pray to God that their lives end before I get to them. I will make death the greatest mercy for them and make sure no one will dare to do it again

Ace : Literally or metaphorically?

Someone : Would you kill innocent people for Luffy?

Sabo : I uuhmm.. I- I don't, that's like a bit too , but no that's not what I meant I meant that uhm...

Ace : Yes

A Baker's Dozen - Eleven**

A collection of fun and fluffy one shots set in the same bakery. Twelve Pedro boys, twelve stories, twelve recipes.

Hello!

The second to last visitor to the bakery is here and I can hardly believe it! Eleven weeks of Pedro boys have flown past and I've had so much fun with them!

So before we get started with number eleven, this series was meant to be all fluff, but then this Pedro boy arrived and just really got out of hand and I had nothing to do with it, he just took over!

So I had to ask my friend @morallyinept if I could use her very handy Scoville Smut Rating to issue some warnings. Thank you, Jett!

🌶 - "Don't hurt me, cadejo." 

Scoville Level 15,000. The Donis Cadejo Hot Sauce. (Buy the sauce here) The story contains mildly spicy smut. Tingles left on your tongue.

The week’s been slower than usual, as it always is in February, post-holiday blues setting in, everyone trying to be extra healthy and save some money. No time to be indulging in sweet things. Your shop does fine though, planning and prepping for Valentine’s Day and the upcoming wedding season. 

But the slower hours in the shop makes you take note of the black car that’s been parked across the street all day. Nothing odd about that, but there’s also been someone sitting in the car all day. You’ve been glancing over as you go about your business, studying the man behind the wheel as he makes notes and phone calls, focused on something further down the street, out of your view. From the way he’s dressed, a crisp, well ironed, pale blue shirt, you’re guessing he’s an agent for some agency, or maybe a very well dressed private eye. He’s not doing a very good job though, he sticks out like a sore thumb on this street of small businesses. When he glances over at you just before noon, you give him a quick smile, to hide the fact that you’ve been staring at the way he’s been rubbing his large hand over his chin for the past five minutes. He locks eyes with you, surprise flitting across his face, before he gives you a crooked smile in return. 

This is the beginning of a dance; you glance over to find him looking at you rather than the street in front of him, you raise your eyebrows in challenge and he seems to chuckle, looking away. You study his strong nose, the dark curls brushing over his forehead as he makes more notes, and he catches you staring when he looks over, one eyebrow arching in a questioning look and you shrug with a smile, going back to the cake you’re decorating. 

It’s late in the afternoon when you notice movement in the street, a second car parking behind the first and a man getting out and walking over to the first car. Quick words are exchanged, you steal glances from the corner of your eye as you finish up an order for tomorrow. Bending down to put the order away, you hear the bell on your front door chime. 

“Hi, I thought I’d stop by and say hello properly,” the man from the car is standing in front of the counter with a small smile as you straighten up. 

“Hi,” you say, returning his smile as you take the chance to get a better look at him for the first time. He’s taller than you expected, and broad, so much broader than the side view you’ve had all day indicated. The light blue dress shirt is stretching over his shoulders and arms and you immediately decide that he must be an agent, no private eye is ever this fit, not that you have much experience, but still. 

“I just wanted to introduce myself and explain what I’m doing,” the man says, nodding over at his car on the other side of the street, “And I hope I can count on your discretion too.”

“Uuhmm, sure,” you say, looking at him as he pulls a badge from the pocket of his suit trousers, “I was kinda assuming that you’re on some sort of stake out.” 

“That obvious, huh?” the man chuckles, showing you his ID.

“Yeah, your sleek car and nice shirt gave it away a little,” you smile, “and the way you sat out there all day, I’m pretty sure every business owner on the street has spotted you.” 

“I’ll need to fix that for tomorrow then,” he smiles, “I’m special agent Dave York, I’m with the CIA, and we’ve got surveillance on an apartment further down the street. I can’t tell you what it’s about but you don’t have to worry, it’s nothing dangerous for the neighborhood.” 

“That’s good to know,” you reply, “And you’re welcome in for coffee or something to snack on whenever you want,” you thumb at the coffee machine behind you, “I’d offer delivery service but that might be a little bit too obvious.” 

He chuckles at that and you notice the dimple on his clean shaven cheek, a slight five o’clock shadow indicating that it’s been a while since he got up and shaved this morning. 

“I’d love a coffee right now, if you don’t mind,” he says and you point at the menu. 

“What’ll it be? 

“The dark roast, black, please,” he says, “You’ve got a good selection.”

“Thanks, people mainly buy bread and cakes, the coffee machine is mainly for me and a handful of regulars who like good coffee, we like trying different beans and roasts,” you throw him a smile over your shoulder as you prepare his coffee to go. 

“I’ll have to become a regular then, keep your coffee business going,” he taps his card on the machine as you hand him the cup. 

“I just realized I know who you are,” you say, the penny finally dropping, “One of my regulars, Mrs Levinson, knows your mom. Mrs Levinson bought a Lemon Meringue Pie for her a while back.” 

“Oh yeah, those two are as thick as thieves, always trying to set me up on blind dates,” he chuckles, taking a sip of the coffee, “I’ve been blaming my workload to avoid them." He raises the cup to you with a smile, “Great coffee, I’ll definitely come back."

“If I don’t spot you, I’ll know you’ve done a better job of hiding,” you tell him and he laughs, giving you a cheesy thumbs up as he leaves.

You watch him take long strides across the street to his car, the coffee still in his hand, and just as he gets in the car, he turns and looks back at you, a smile cracking across his face as he raises his hand in a wave. 

You do spot him the next day, but you are keeping an eye out for him, glancing out to see if he’s arrived. He parks a different car across the street this time, a beat up, rusty looking banger, and he’s in a ratty looking t-shirt and a beanie pulled low over his forehead. Much less ‘agent on a stakeout’ this time, but you still glance over at him from time to time, far too often in fact. And you bite back a smile when you catch him glancing over at you too, catching your eye on a few occasions as he winks. 

Half way through the day he’s relieved, and he steps out of his car, coming over to the bakery again. 

“Hi,�� he says, giving you a dimpled smile as he pulls off his beanie, “Did I blend in better today?” 

“Yeah, better,” you smile back at him as he comes up to the counter, “The distressed t-shirt was a good choice.” 

“I had to dig it out from the bottom of some box left over from when I moved,” he holds up the front of it and studies the suspicious looking stain on the front, “I swear this is not my usual casual look.” 

Holding up the front has resulted in the hem of the t-shirt lifting up over the edge of his pants and you can’t help but glance down as he flashes a few inches of skin, his sweat pants sitting low on his hips. The trail of dark hair disappearing beneath the waistband has you momentarily distracted as you follow it down to- 

“I’ll take your word for it,” you say, snapping your eyes back up to his, but not before he notices, giving you a small smirk, “NIce sweatpants.” 

“Thanks,” he chuckles, “not as old as the t-shirt, but still not my best look, I promise.”

“I don’t mind that much,” you smirk back and he flashes a crooked grin, his eyebrow cocked, before he looks up at the coffee menu behind you and tilts his head to the side.

“What do you recommend today? I’m feeling adventurous,” he says, looking down at you again with a smile, “blame the sweatpants.” 

“A single espresso shot vanilla hazelnut latte with salted caramel and whipped cream on top? I usually add some cookie crumbles too,” you say and Dave’s face falls, his eyebrows pulling together in a concerned look. 

“Ah…uhh…” he stutters, rubbing his hand over his jaw, clearly looking for a polite way to decline your suggestion and you bite the inside of your cheek to stop yourself from laughing at his panic, but he catches the mirth in your eyes. 

“Holy shit, you’re kidding,” he gasps out, wiping imaginary sweat from his brow as you start giggling. 

“Sorry, I had to check if you’re serious about your coffee,” you wink at him as he shakes his head and puffs a relieved breath. 

“Had me worried,” he says, “I thought I’d have to drink one of those to be allowed to stay a regular.” 

“No, I think I’d have to kick you out if you did order one of those,” you smile, picking up the bag of new beans that just arrived, “Here, smell these, I just got them so I haven’t even tried them yet.” 

Dave takes a deep breath and nods with a satisfied look, “That’s nice, can I try that?” 

“Sure, I’ll make us one each. Single or double?” 

“Double, please, this stake out thing is kicking my ass,” he says, leaning against the counter as you start the process of grinding the beans. 

“Do you want some cake or something else too?” you ask, nodding at your selection. 

“No, I’m good,” he says, “It all looks really good, but not today.” He does let his eyes drift over the cakes on display though and you smile to yourself, you know the type, sooner or later he’ll cave and get something as a treat no matter how strong his resolve it. 

“Here you go,” you say, passing him his espresso, in a cup this time, “let me know what you think, if it’s good I might give it a permanent spot on the menu.” 

You both take a few sips of the coffee in silence, humming at the flavors. 

“It’s good,” Dave finally says, “Really good, I wouldn’t complain if it was a regular on the menu.” 

“I agree, I’m going to order more,” you reply, draining the cup as he pulls his wallet out of his pants. 

“Let me pay for both coffees,” he says, holding out his card, “as a thank you, for letting me come in and disturb you.” 

“You’re not disturbing, Dave,” you smile, “you can come in whenever you want.” 

“Even if I’m not on a stake out?” he asks, a small smile playing around his mouth and you feel your cheeks heat up. 

“Especially when you’re not on a stake out,” you smile back and his dimple makes an appearance as his smile widens. 

“I’ll remember that,” he says, tapping his card to pay for both coffees, “I’ll see you tomorrow though, more stake out.” 

“See you tomorrow,” you say, returning the wave he gives you as he leaves. 

He’s back the next morning, already sitting in the car as you come out into the shop to open up for the day. He looks tired, yawning big and rubbing his hand over his eyes as he leans his head against the headrest. You glance over at him while you work and serve the small morning crowd, but he doesn’t look back at you. Saying goodbye to the last customer you look over at the car again, Dave’s head is flopped to the side, mouth hanging open and eyes closed, sound asleep. The sight is adorable, the big CIA agent clearly exhausted if he’s passed out on the job. You grab your travel mug, the one you keep filled with coffee through the morning, and give it a quick clean. Filling it up with a triple espresso shot from the beans you’d had with him yesterday, you screw on the top and exit the shop. He stirs as your shoes scuff over the asphalt, jerking up as you lightly tap the window. 

“Hey, want some coffee?” you ask, holding up the travel mug and he gives you such a look of relief and gratitude that it melts your heart. 

“Thanks,” he says once he’s cranked down the window in the old car, “I’m dead here, can’t keep my eyes open.” 

“Doesn’t do you much good on a stake out,” you say, “drop off the mug when you leave, and just wave at me if you want more coffee, I’ll come over with a refill.” 

“Thanks, you’re a lifesaver,” he smiles, and you smile back, giving him a wave as you cross the street to the bakery. 

Dave stays a bit more alert through the rest of the day, and gets relieved earlier than usual. You smile when he comes into the shop. 

“Any luck with whatever you’re waiting for?” you ask as he hands you the travel mug. 

“No, and we’re running out of time, this might be a waste of resources,” he says, shaking his head and yawning widely, “I’m sorry, I was up late last night, working on this and then I couldn’t fall asleep, too much stuff on my mind.” 

“Go home, Dave,” you say, shooing him out of your shop with a smile, “You’re no good to anyone when you’re like this.” 

“Yeah, you’re probably right,” he says, “But I like our chats, makes this stake out more enjoyable than any other I’ve been on,” he suddenly looks a little bit shy as he’s half turned towards the door, a small smile as he looks back at you. 

“I like our chats too,” you say, butterflies erupting in the pit of your belly, and for a few seconds you’re just ogling each other like a couple of fools, both too shy to say anything else. Dave clears his throat, a small chuckling sound, and looks at his shoes before he glances up. 

“I’ll see you tomorrow then.” 

“See you tomorrow, Dave,” you give him a wave and a small smile, biting your lip to hold back the bigger one that’s being pushed up by the butterflies as he returns your smile and leaves. 

But the next morning you don’t see his car, or any other car that might be a covert CIA operation and you wonder if the stake out got canceled. The day passes slowly, the usual February slump slower than usual without Dave outside your window. Realizing you don’t have his number, you can only hope he’ll come back even though he’s not on a stake out. And when you finally see him the next afternoon, crossing the street at a slight jog to avoid a car, you feel yourself smiling before he’s even spotted you. When he pushes open the door he gives you a wide grin. 

“Hey, how’s it going?” he asks, coming up to the counter as you put away your phone. 

“Hi,” you smile at him, thanking your past self for changing the stained t-shirt and apron into something cuter, “I’m good, but things are slow today so I’m glad you’re here, it’s been kinda boring without the stake out to distract me.” 

He chuckles at that, looking out onto the spot where his car had been for the past three days. 

“Yeah, orders came yesterday to can it, another team has picked up a hotter lead so we’ve been working on that. But that place doesn't have any nice bakeries nearby, so it's a complete loss,” he says with a smile that makes your insides liquid. 

“So you’re actually here when not on a stake out?” you tease him and he laughs. 

“Told you I’d be back,” he says, pushing the sleeves of the sweatshirt he’s wearing up over his thick forearms and crossing his arms, scanning the coffee menu. “Should I go for another one of those nice beans, or should I be adventurous?” he asks. 

You give him a crooked smile, tilting your head like you’re assessing him and he raises an eyebrow in question at you. 

“What do you have in mind? That look is making me nervous.” 

“I’m thinking….” you begin, “the regular coffee, but…you get a snack too, one of the cakes.” 

Dave gives you a grin in response and begins to scan the cakes, “The carrot cake,” he says, pointing to one of the smallest slices covered in white cream cheese frosting.

“Good choice,” you smile, “it’s a best seller and I made it this morning.” You plate the slice and start making the coffee for him.

“It’s kinda healthy, right?” he asks, eyeing the carrot cake with suspicion, “It’s got carrots and all?” 

“I mean, it’s still got sugar and fat in it,” you chuckle, “but it’s made with vegetable oil and not butter, so there is that.” 

You bring the coffee to the counter and start making a coffee for yourself as Dave picks up the plate. 

“You’ve got to be kidding me!” you sputter out as you watch him scrape the frosting off the cake with the spoon, “That’s the best part!” 

“It’s just fat and sugar,” he says, putting the dollop of frosting on the side of the plate, “I’m trying to stay healthy.” 

“I don’t know what to tell you, Dave,” you smirk, “if you don’t eat that frosting on the cake like the baker intended, I don’t think this friendship is going to last.” You point to yourself and raise your eyebrows in a challenge. 

 “You know, I usually don’t eat sweet stuff, it’s the job,” he says, “I need to stay fit for it.” He’s toying with the cake, the intonation heavy on the 'eat'. He's not looking at you, but there’s a smirk playing around the corners of his mouth. 

“So indulge a little, it’ll be worth it,” you smile and he looks up at you, his smirk suddenly changing into something more challenging as he seems to evaluate you in silence for several long seconds.

“Only if you’re on the menu,” he says, his dark eyes pinning you in place while he runs his tongue over his bottom lip, “Are you on the menu?” 

The question is direct as he slowly raises his eyebrows, the intention clear.

You feel your brain grind to a halt, Dave’s dark brown eyes are boring into you as you slowly inhale, you feel like he’s flicked a switch and turned on his professional side, but he’s not using it to interrogate you. Instead he’s using it to put pressure on you, to get you to tell him what you want. 

What he wants. 

Glancing down at the plate still in his hand, he swipes his finger through the frosting and slowly rounds the counter, coming up to where you’re still standing frozen by the coffee machine. 

“Are you?” he says, repeating his question and slowly bringing his finger to his mouth, sucking the frosting off with a pop. 

The tip of your tongue comes out to lick across your top lip and Dave glances down at your mouth, following the movement. Taking a step closer, he’s almost touching you now, you can feel the scent of his cologne wash over you as his eyes come back up to yours. 

“I’d really like it, if you were on the menu,” he says, his voice low and dark, “but if you’re not, tell me, and I’ll leave.” 

You swallow, still transfixed by his dark eyes on you, the way he’s looking at you, like he’s trying to read you and succeeding. You slowly nod your head yes. 

Dave inhales softly, putting down the plate, “Use your words. Tell me I can kiss you,” he says, the frustration clearly thrumming just below the surface of his low tones as his breath skates across your cheek, his hands hovering just inches from your body, ready to grab as soon as you give him permission, “You’ve been driving me fucking crazy all week but I couldn’t do anything.” 

A shiver runs through your body, your hand shaking as you put your coffee cup down, slowly putting both your hands on the front of his gray t-shirt, feeling the bunched up muscles flex under your palms as you slide them up to his shoulders. Dave is watching you intently, a small crease between his eyebrows, his fingers twitching by your waist. 

“Not here,” you say, dropping your hands to your sides, and side stepping him. He turns as you slip out past him, quickly walking the front door and locking it, flipping the ‘Back in five minutes’ sign. When you turn back, he’s still standing by the coffee machine and you pass him. 

“Less nosy neighbors in here,” you say, holding out your hand to him. 

He reacts in a heartbeat, taking your hand and crowding you as he pushes you further into the kitchen, out of sight. He lets go of your hand and grabs your waist, the other landing on your neck, his large hand easily spanning across it and up, cupping your cheek as he walks you backwards. The cool metal of the walk-in fridge hits your back and Dave’s towering over you, bending his face down so that his strong nose brushes against yours, his eyes almost black under his eyebrows, pulled together tight, and the hand at your waist bunching up your shirt. 

“Now?” he husks and you nod. 

“Yes, now.” 

His mouth is hot when it reaches yours in a flash, he’s pushing you further up against the fridge as he angles his head to have more. There’s an edge of desperation to the way he holds you. The hand on your cheek keeps you where he needs you as he licks the seam of your lips. When you part them, his tongue is eager and needy, a groan escaping from somewhere deep inside of him and you pant into his mouth as his sounds fire up your brain. Heat shoots through your body like rocket fuel ignited, the cool metal behind you a sharp contrast to the solid warmth of Dave’s body in front when he pulls you closer with his hand on your waist, tugging you into him. 

It’s messy, tongues and teeth fighting for control, your hands in his hair, his thick fingers grabbing your neck, his thigh between your legs. There’s no hiding the arousal coursing through you both as you moan at the way he rubs over your core, his low groans mixed in when he rolls his hard length into your hip. 

He tangles his fingers into your hair, pulling back your head and trailing wet kisses across your throat, sucking a mark into where shoulder meets neck, moving up again, his teeth gently tugging on your earlobe before you gasp when he nips at the soft skin just underneath. 

“I’ve been fucking dreaming about how you’d sound when I did this,” he growls when you moan loudly into the silent kitchen, “sound so pretty, so fucking sweet.” His hand on your waist tightens, he’s pulling you down onto his leg, rocking into you as you clamor for a grip, tugging at his hair, loud, satisfied groan coming from Dave. 

“I wanna hear what you sound like when you come,” he mutters, moving his mouth up to yours again, biting your bottom lip, sucking it into his mouth, tongue coming out to caress it, taste it, before he lets go.

Pulling back a little, he looks down at you. You meet his dark eyes, lust clouding them as you gasp at the way his thick thigh creates just enough friction to make you convulse under his firm grip. 

“So fucking sweet,” he mumbles, a tone to his voice like he’s been craving this, “always looking at me from the bakery, always smelling so good, so tempting. Been wanting to do this since the first day, just get you in here and make you come all over my leg, hear you say my name.” 

You try to unscramble your brain, it’s hazy with arousal, the coil that he’s wound so tightly about to snap. But all you can feel is the tell tale tingling that’s started in your core and you close your eyes, the feeling radiating out from where his thigh rubs against you. 

“No, keep them open for me, baby,” Dave growls, “keep your eyes on me,” his voice forcing you to look up at him as it hits. 

“Dave…” you gasp, “Pl-please, Dave…” 

It shoots through your system like electricity, your legs closing around his, your skin burning as he kisses you, swallowing down your cries of his name as he keeps moving his leg, working you through the high until your muscles finally relax. 

He holds you up, his arm around your waist now, as his kisses soften. Soft movements across your lips, his tongue gently teasing yours until he pulls back a little, pressing his lips against yours, foreheads touching as you take a deep breath and you can feel him smile against you.

He moves his leg back, bending down and grabbing hold of your thighs, picking you up like you weigh nothing. With your arms around his neck, you hold on until he sets you down on the workbench, his hard erection is pressed tight between you but he seems to ignore it. 

“You ok?” he asks quietly, bending down and pressing a small kiss to the side of your neck, “seemed like you needed that.” His chuckle is low and amused as you sigh deeply. 

“That’s how you indulge?” you ask, caressing the back of his head, raking your fingers through his thick hair. 

“Better for your body than that carrot cake,” he smirks, pulling back a bit so that he can look at you while he cups your jaw and strokes his thumb over cheek. 

“I told you, this friendship won’t last if you don’t eat the frosting,” you give him a small smile, your body still humming. 

Dave gives you a smug look, “I don’t want your friendship, I want your frosting,” he says with a grin, tugging gently at your chin so that he can press his lips to yours and slip his tongue inside before your addled brain can come up with a comeback. 

The kiss is languid and slow, Dave takes his time, holding you back as you try to pull him closer, your hands still in his hair. After several long minutes he reaches up and untangles your fingers and pulls them down to your sides. 

“I’m leaving now,” he says against your mouth, his lips brushing over yours, “And I want you to be good. I have to go take care of something on that case. Close the shop when you’re done, go home, I’ll come by later.” There’s a promise in his low tone, in the way he nips at your bottom lip one last time and his fingers dig into your hips as he moves around your neck.

“Listen,” he whispers, his mouth close to your ear, “I’m not done with you yet.”

Ok, so that got spicier then intended right? I don't know what to say, Dave just stepped in and took over.... blame him or thank him!

For the cake, this recipe uses pecans but I prefer walnuts but you can also leave them out if you want too. But it really is a very good cake...

“You wanna know if my hair's hot? It can get that way when I'm mad, but not usually… ...Wanna touch it? Scratch that. Forget I asked.”

Idia Shroud, Dorm Uniform Card

“Wait.. I do want to touch your hair” You mumbled quietly. His hair was so interesting to you. It was practically flames, but they weren't hot? You smiled as you noticed the tips of his hair turn pink.

‘What does that mean?’ You asked as you took the initiative to touch his hair. You took the tips of his hair and ran your fingers through it. You watched him tremble slightly as you took control of the situation. He looked flustered, which was a sight you liked to see. You’d developed a liking towards him after you noticed how passionate he was about his video games. And how cute he was when he was shy, which was most of the time when you two were alone. You knew that the feeling was mutual, but he’d never confess to you. 

“I-it means.. uuhmm..” You heard him take a breath; a long one at that. You gave him your smile and tilted your head. Your fingers were still running through his hair. 

“...that I'm flustered or.. uh embarrassed.” You heard him whisper underneath his breath. You blinked as he admitted the true meaning. You couldn’t help but smile after that. Of course it meant that. An idiot could figure that out. You just wanted to listen to him talk. You liked it when you listened to him ramble about video games to the people he didn’t like in school (which was practically anyone who’s extroverted). 

You couldn’t help but notice how intimate your position was. You were holding eye contact with him at this point. You were inches away from him as you caressed his hair. He was looking at you as you played with his hair. Maybe it was the right time to confess, right now, in the middle of his room. Ortho was out on a stroll, probably talking to anyone he saw in the halls. Yeah, maybe it is.

“Idia,” You muttered, going over your words in your head. You watched him nod and you let out a soft sigh. “I like you, a lot." 

You knew it was going to end in the words you wanted to hear after you saw half his hair turn pink and his stuttering. You giggled as you saw the mess of the boy you like.

Maybe too Little, Probably too Late

part 2 of

The day YN sent Jacob away was pure torture. She’d cried for the rest of the night in that one spot on the floor. Only her kitten Bilbo seemed to care, nudging at YN to be held. But when YN moved from that spot, early the next morning, something shifted.

Her eyes were swollen and her whole body ached, but she was different. She had to start over, completely over. After a quick shower YN left her sad apartment and went straight to the nearest barbershop.

“I want it all gone!” she says determined.

“Uuhmm, are you sure this is quite a bit of hair—“

“Yep, all of it please.”

YN walks out with the shortest haircut she’d ever had in her life, and a weight off her shoulders. Jacob loved her hair, there’d been many nights where Jacob would softly massage her scalp, putting YN to sleep. Now she wanted all memories of Jacob gone.

After a quick breakfast and her new haircut, YN decided to redo her apartment. She threw away everything that had to do with her now ex best friend; his old uni sweatshirt, his favorite “I ♥️ London” mug, his spare toothbrush, and every last thing that remotely reminded him.

Pulling another garbage bag to the front of her apartment YN stops because she realizes that in her 600sqft apartment Jacob filled up 3 large bags, and now her whole apartment seems empty.

She truly doesn’t know what to do when they come to pick up her garbage the next morning. Every moment for the next 3 months is like this, her being stung by the depravity of Jacob’s absence and its hell. All she can do is cuddle up to Bilbo, the only thing she has left that reminds her of Jacob, that she wouldn’t dare to part with.

Their shared friends eventually caught on about their split around month 4; when YN snapped at Gracie’s hendo weekend because the girls refused to stop asking about her “movie stay bestie”. By month 5 she was finally starting to feel free from him, YN was finally feeling like she was her own person.

But during month 6, YN had traveled home for the christmas holiday. This holiday would probably be the hardest because not only would she miss her and Jacob’s Christmas traditions, but she might run into him.

Their mums had been best friends since they were in primary school, but YN’s mom moved to another country for university and they’d lost touch. But once YN’s family moved back to London, nothing stopped the pair from rekindling their friendship and no “childish riff” (as her mom called it) between their children would stop their friendship either.

So YN stayed holed up in her old bedroom for almost her entire holiday. Until christmas eve when her mom came banging on her door, telling her she needed to come down and speak to the guests of their annual Christmas eve party. YN knew this was coming, her mom was practically the Martha Stewart of Christmas and would not let her only child spoil a perfectly good Christmas.

Luckily, it seemed that the Scipio’s decided not to show tonight, much to her mother’s dismay, so YN dropped her wallflower act and paraded around as the hostess her mother taught her to be. When she turns from the kitchen after offering to refill a few drinks, she stops dead in her tracks because she sees him, well she sees the back of him.

Jacob is already being clapped on the shoulder and rugged into hugs as she watches for a second, and she wants to join so badly. To run to him and say how michel she’s missed him and to see how he’s doing ,

how he’s been. Those thoughts keep winding until she realizes that their answers won’t include each other, his certainly won’t. Jacob’s will be filled with daring adventures and a beautiful fiancé.

6 months without him and she has nothing to show for it. YN turns back around putting the drinks on the counter, ignoring her hosting responsibilities, and quietly slips out to the back garden. The evening snow chills her even with the thick sweater. Her deep breaths are filling her lungs with frost, and she’s almost calmed down, until she hears the back door slide open.

YN stills completely, as if it will hide her, when the sound of feet crunching against snow moves closer to her.

“It’s right cold out here my love.” Her mom says pulling her jacket closer around her body. YN looks back at her mom, realizing the breath she was holding.

Looking at her daughter, YN’s mom's heart cracks just a little. The older woman knew something had happened between the two, but she allowed YN to spare her any details. As she gets closer to her daughter she can see the tears that YN is trying to blink away.

“I’m sorry, I’ll be back in a second.” YN says wiping the tears back.

“No my love I think party time might be over for you. It’s okay if you want to rest for a bit, it’s been quite the day.”

Nodding her head, YN moves to go back inside, but just as she reaches the door she hears her mother clear her throat.

“I’m not all too sure what’s happened, but I hope you two can figure it out. You two were made to be in each other’s lives, one way or another.”

With a sigh YN heads back upstairs to her room, to curl back under the covers. This time she doesn’t cry, but she still feels that ache in her chest, as if her heart calls for the man downstairs.

Month 7 kicks off the new year and YN is committed to her “New Year, New Me” mantra. To the point where she is letting her friends finally set her up on dates. She didn’t care to participate too often before, as she hoped Jacob would finally see her as a potential girlfriend and after 2 months of these blind dates YN decides she prefers unrequited love.

“Oh c’mon YN just one more date!” Gracie says again, sipping on her third mimosa.

“I don’t know Gracie, I just don’t think I'll ever find a forever kind of guy. 8 dates in 8 weeks and they were all awful.” YN grimaces remembering the serial farter from date number 5.

“Look, just one more time, for me? He’s such a great guy and he’s been asking me to set him up for months at this point. I think you two would be a perfect pair!” Gracie says with a slight slur.

YN tries hard not to think about how she ended up here, getting drunk and being slightly guilted into another horrid date. “Fine, but this is the last one. You can't vicariously be single through me anymore after this!”

With a boisterous laugh Gracie gets on her phone to set up YN’s next date.

—

YN looks absolutely hot, as she did for every last one of her dates. But after date number three, the thrill of being a hot date certainly wore off. Matt didn’t seem like a bad guy at all through text, and certainly wasn’t bad looking from his pictures, though the same could be said about the others.

So she really wasn’t too thrilled when he was 15 minutes late. Now, had she known that Matt was 10x hotter than his picture she might’ve excused him, but without giving him a second glance she tells him that she doesn’t think this is going to work and gets up to leave their date.

It takes him a second to realize what happened but when he does Matt is out of his seat and jogging after her. “Hey, you’re right," he says, still keeping a good pace behind her.” I shouldn’t have been late, but I was rescuing a cat from a tree for an older lady in my building; I couldn’t leave without at least trying.”

YN pauses just as she places her hand on her cat door, she quickly whips her head around giving him a once over. “Did you really rescue a cat?” she says looking over her shoulder at him.

“Not at all, but you look like you have a soft spot for cats, and I'm late because I burned a hole through my shirt. Which is why I'm wearing a jacket when it’s 96 degrees and I smell slightly like smoke.”

YN turns all the way around, staring at Matt as if he’d grown another head, but a split second later she is doubled over in laughter. A real belly laugh, one she hadn’t felt in a long while, and that’s when she knew she would be alright again.

Well at least this is the story she tells Jacob when he angrily asks how she could possibly be engaged during the dinner of his premiere party.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Rhys IS very much a central character and we HAVE experienced the story through his eyes through a POV, heavy diologue scenes, and uuhmm him literally being in a relationship with the main character so idk what the fuck you're on about

He's a central character, he isn't a main character. He had a POV in a novella, that doesn't make him a main character. He's in a relationship with the main character, as you said, yes but that doesn't make him a main character it makes him the love interest of the main chatacter. But since you seem to have the literacy skills of a penguin I'm guessing you still won't get it

And what in the fuck do heavy dialogue scenes have to do with literally anything? Just pulling shit out of your ass at this point 💀 by that logic then Tamlin is the main character too and Amarantha and Helion and Jurian and countless others. Oh wait, no they're not. Again just because you want him to pick you doesn't make him a main character

[itsyouch]

I wish I was illiterate.

I'm going to hit my head with a pan so hard that I get a concussion and forget the English language. And I'm going to make sure I learn a language that this book isn't translated in and never read this book again. Istg

I'VE BEEN SOBBING FOR 5 HOURS. GOD DAMN SOMEONE HELP ME. MY CHEEKS HAS BEEN ERODED FROM TEARS. IT BURRNSS MY EYES BURRN.

I CAN'T DO THIS! HES DEAD. DRAKE IS DEAD OHH OHWWWW HELP ME. MY HEART IS ABOUTA BLOW UP. OOOOOOOWWW

MY JOY. MY JOY IS GONE!! DRAKE, MY SWEET NOOOO!! HE DIED IN A MEANINGFUL WAY OOOH. MY NUMBER 1 WEAKNESS AAAAAAAHH!!!

every single one of his words hit so hard.

EVERYONE in a hundred mile radius was in danger when I read this. HIS LITTLE HOUSE IN THE VALLEY. THE NECKLACE. THOSE WHERE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WHOLESOME SCENES WITH DRAKE EVER. AND THEY GOT TURNED EVEN SADDER IN HIS DEATH.

"Give Rachle the necklace. Tell her.... tell her I'm sorry. Tell her..... I wanted to show her... my little valley. Tell her I tried."

that has me so bad.... oh haha, woopsies I'm abouta start balling again..... uuhmm.... I don't wanna finish Beyonders... oomf said if only gets worse, and that if I'm reacting like this over Drake's death.... then I'm cook so bad......

THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND ME THO. EVEN IF IT GETS WORSE. DRAKE'S DEATH IS ALWAYS GONNA BE NUMBER 1. HE WAS MY ONLY CHARACTER IM HYPERFIXATING ON. AND ALL I HAVE THAT SLIGHTLY CLOSE TO DRAKE, IF FERRIN. HE'S NOT HELPING THO. NOTHING CAN REPLACE DRAKE. AND AND OOOH SHOOT

RACHEL!!! SHE'S GONNA FIND OUT ABOUT DRAKE'S DEATH.

All the bonding between them, Drake teaching Rachel Edomic, Drake promising Rachel to take her to his old house in the valley, the necklace. THEY... ok lemme calm down.... they never got to say goodbye properly, Rachel literally voiced her concern that she might not see Drake again after they split up. She made Drake promise that he would come back, that they would make it out

Oh there I go, balling for the 11th time today....

IM NEVER GONNA GET TO READ DRAKE AND RACHEL TALK EVER AGAIN, NEVER INTERACT, BANTER PLAYFULLY, DRAKE IS NEVER GONNA RUSTLE HER HAIR. HER ADOPTED FATHER IS DEAD. SHES GONNA HAVE TO FIND OUT.

"I've done this before.... I'm past the reach of medicine" BECAUSE HE'S DIED BEFORE. HE KNOWS THE FEELING, HE KNOWS ITS OVER.

Him telling Farfalee he loved her too is so sad, they've been doing nothing but sibling bantering and.

GOD DAMNT IT IM SONBBING AGAIN. I CAN'T SEE. EVERYTHING IS BLURY!! IM SO FRUSTRATED BECAUSE I HAVE SO MANY THINGS IN MY MIND BUT MY STUPID DUMB SELF DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO SAY IT.

I'll come back to this when my head is a bit clearer....

Uuhmm uhmm i know i'm going to hell flr this request but uhmm May i request an nsfw headcanon for Jack asking Devil y/n to ride his member and her being afraid of hurting him ?

Yes you can-

Warning: NSFW, Switch JTR, Creampie.

-

• Well, the time had finally come where you two would actually engage in sexual interaction-

• You tended to be rather… nervous about it. However, Jack had guided you through it like a champ, comforting you with gentle kisses and his soft touch.

• However, when the time had came where you wanted to top, he had allowed you to, allowing for you to straddle him.

• Jack could only blink as you grew concerned for hurting him. He then softly chuckled.

- “My Love, it won’t hurt for me. It may hurt slightly for you, since we’ve never done this before. However, if you go rough enough, perhaps it may ache enough for me.”

• There was a small glint of hope for if you had went that rough in his eyes. And, he was right. You allowed for his dick to sink into you, only to wince and whimper of how it had stung in you.

• Jack of course comforted you, keeping your attention from the stinging sensation with speaking of stories of the past. Though, soon enough, you were good enough to move.

• With that pain slowly melting into pleasure, you seemed to grow comfortable with it as well, going your own pace to satisfy you and Jack.

• This man’s sounds were wonderful-

• Your pace had soon went to something faster and harder, satisfying you two much more. Having Jack with his hands on your hips, slightly controlling how he wanted the pace to be was the only thing he could do.

• He had his head thrown back, softly slurring and groaning. You had a slight concern for if he was hurting or not. However, judging from how blissful he had seemed, you had went harder on him. His grip on your hips had only twitched as he shivered from the change of pace.

• May have went deep enough to crush his balls. He softly winced from both pain and pleasure, enjoying the mere sensation of you going that deep.

• Catching onto his wince, you were about to pull away until he shoved you down, panting softly.

- “I enjoy it, My Love… Please… keep going…”

• Through slight hesitation, you do, making Jack’s heart warm. You really do care for him, even in something like sexual intercourse.

• He’d love to repay you with something… And yet, the only thing he can think of is a creampie…

• Yet, it seems to suffice with how close you’re clinging, bringing both him and you to a close release.

• He controls your pace much more, eager to spill his semen into the deepest places of your womb.

• It even gets to a certain point of where he had smashed into your cervix, with you having nothing other than a dizzy feeling of pleasure.

• Jack had continued to hammer in, wincing at how tight you had become. You really were a perfect person for him…

• Before he knew it, he had thrusted his deepest, his tip shooting every thick ribbon of cum he had in you.

• … How much to beg that you overrode his cum-?

• He probably passed out after you did-

• Well, more of a chance to ensure you were pregnant then-

[sugardecreme]

ok. hi i am very bored & want things to doodleee,, so uuhmm. feel free to give me stuff to draw plss ?? 🥺🥺🥺 idk how high effort it'll be or how soon i'll actually get to all of them, it depends on my mood, but,.sdjfdsjkshf yeah! !!!!!! i just. feel like drawing stuff

[vypridae]

gifting you akutagawa and vox‼️‼️

[i feel it should be noted vox autocorrected to box three times]

IM GONNA ASSUME THIS IS FOR THE CHARACTER ASK THING AND IF ITS NOT THEN I APOLOGIZE SO MUCH ACTUALLY (also dw ive typed box thousands of times trying to type vox)

(this got long so under the cut it goes!!)

akutagawa

my first impression

hello when akutagawa showed up i think i actually was like "OH...?" i loved him actually so much (still do)

my impression now

LOVE AKUTAGAWA ... i dont obsess over him like i used to (thats reserved for fyosiglai) BUT I STILL LOVE HIM SO MUCH

favorite thing about that character

oh my god uuhmm im ngl probably his ability lIKE ITS JUST SO FUCKING COOL

least favorite thing

his bangs because theyre IMPOSSIBLE to draw

favorite line/scene

"CALL ME 💥‼️🤬😈DIABLO😈🤬‼️💥"

favorite interaction that character has done with another

probably the uuhh "DONT YOU EVEN DARE... COMPARE ME... TO THIS GUY!!" just cuz im sskk trash

a character that i wish that character would interact with more

CHUUYA !!!! 100% CHUUYA CHUUYA CHUUYA !!!!! HAVE THEY HAD ANY INTERACTIONS AT ALL???

another character from another fandom that reminds me of that character

oooh uuuuhh i really dont have a lot ... uuh fuck hmm. i dont actually think ive ever seen a character thats reminded me of akutagawa for any reason?? or that akutagawa's reminded me of, at least

a headcanon about that character

GRAYSEXUAL DEMIROMANTIC AKUTAGAWA . also he has a soft spot for animals but refuses to ever tell anyone ever

a song that reminds of that character

DOES IT COUNT IF ITS A SHIP SONG ??? i can't fix you (yes the fnaf song) atsushi singing about akutagawa . this is partially because i was searching for sskk ship playlists a few years back and that song just was int he playlist and igot fucking JUMPSCARED

an unpopular opinion about that character

hello i dont think i have one BHABHASH im really bad at having opinions that arent what everyone else thinks i go with the crowd

favorite picture

he just looks so ethereal here give me a break ...

vox

my first impression

when vox had like 0.2 seconds of screentime in the pilot i remember being like "ooh neat dude. why does he have a tv for a face"

my impression now

OH MY GOD. POOKIE PIE BOYFAILURE I LOVE HIM SO MUCH ES AWFUL AND I LOVE HIM

favorite thing about that character

dont make me cHOOSE ... im ngl probably the fact that hes like, "you cant go around doing drastic things over angel dust because what about our image as the vees" and then proceeds to do exactly drastic things as soon as he hears alastor is back BAHAJASKGHAJK

least favorite thing

DO I HAVE ONE ?!??? I ... CANNOT THINK wait i thought . the way the fandom characterizes him as so much better than val . NO HE IS NOT !!!!!! val has been shown doing awful things but vox is almost if not equally as bad as he is, just in different ways . fucker told pentious to khs of COURSE hes not good uwu boy PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS *shaking the fandom aggressively by the shoulders* PLEASE

favorite line/scene

I HAVE SEVERAL IM LISTING SEVERAL

+ after alastor absolutely kicks his ass in stayed gone and he goes "FUUHUUHUUUUUUCK!!!!"

+ "NO!!! FUCKYOUFUCK YOU FUCK YOOOUU!! PUSSY!!" from ep 8

+ "THIS IS BETTER THAN SEX!!!" and the look val gives him in ep 8

+ "I AM SO ! HARD ! RIGHT ! NOW !" while alastor is dying in ep 8

ALL OF HIS SCENES ARE AMAZING THO I LOVE HIM LITERALLY SO MUCH

favorite interaction that character has done with another

MAKING OUT WITH VAL. I REST MY CASE.

a character that i wish that character would interact with more

again, i have a few, those being velvette (which im sure we'll see in s2), alastor (because its funny) and shockingly angel dust (im curious to see if theres jealousy there because he has a lot of val's attention a lot of the time)

another character from another fandom that reminds me of that character

in my head vox is just a waay fucked up version of sigma and i dont really know why

a headcanon about that character

i like to imagine that vox's hat has his tv antenna so its like al's mircophone that lets him have more range, if he takes his hat off he buffers and glitches like CRA Z Y so he never takes it off because antenna !

a song that reminds of that character

ive never listened to it myself but thanks to a friend assigning voxval i like u by niki i am forever going to associate that song with them (im gonna go listen to it . at some point)

an unpopular opinion about that character

HES NOT BETTER THAN VAL !!!! its not really an unpopular opinion at this point BUT LIKE . HES AWFUL LIKE VAL IS i know i talked abotu this earlier BUT LIKE ITS JUST RBRHBRHRRHR WHEN PEOPLE SAY "NOO VAL IS AWFUL VOX DESERVES BETTER" NO HE DOESNT!!!!! VOX AND VAL ARE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER BECAUSE THEY ARE BOTH ABSOLUTE SHITHEADS TO EVERYONE ELSE (minus velvette)

favorite picture

DONT. MAKE ME CHOOSE

this one holds a particular place in my brain tho cuz he looks like hes like "WHO CARES WHERE ALASTOR WENT !!!!! RIGHT GUYS!!?!?? RIGht!????!?!??" hes so desperate i love him so fucking much ALSO THEIR FACES AHASKJGFAHSJKFG "NOT THIS SHIT AGAIN"

[hoghtastic]

"She has used and abused social media for her own personal gain"

You slipped in the "abused" to make it sound like some evil plans? If you didn't put that in it would literally just be regular self promotion that she is supposed to be doing if you consider her jobs

Let’s remember the time she posted a very staged table and abused and used Instagram to made it look like she’s something she’s not😂 when in fact she flat out copied a real artist. Let’s remember how she lieeeeed about the reeal artist!!! Wasn’t the wording: coincidence???

And let’s remember her reaction: delete the evidence and act like nothing happened 😂😂😂

Let’s all remember her IG games and how she loved the attention from Alex‘s fans. So she kept posting more and more hints. Played post & delete a few times.

Uuhmm let’s all remember how often she pretended to be sponsored, tagged a brand sooo much until they reacted. ✨✨✨Fake it until you make it ✨✨✨. I remember one brand only reacted after Alex posted her 😅 and they then just followed Alex.

And dude she did spam her IG with that hideous wannabe🤡 self finding hiking trip. It was just IG content. We followed her back then, she was relentless. Spam spam spam spam. She posted more videos from it on New Year’s 2022 aaaand then again and again, instead of showing everyone the nature, she had to put her face in almost every video mehh, just insanely self-centered and lame. Pretentious 🥱.

You say we over analyze things but do you even hear yourself and how you over analyze things? You talk about alleged business accounts, Alex‘s liking a post while scouting, keeping her hair like that and auditions and and and… as if she’s your bestie, did she tell you all of that privately or how did you know all of this??? You sound like you’re desperately trying to make sense of her self-centered behavior. You’re lying for her.

„So no it didn’t always include her “real name and birthday” it was only ever her name and birthday for the last account update after it was found by you all“

hahaha 😆 what?? Everyone saw one account pop up in Alex’s and all of his friends follow list and that’s why the blogs „found“ the account. Wasn’t too hard to figure out who it belonged to since it had her face, name, birthday all over it. And she wanted that. 😂😂😂!!!!

Anon to anon, in response to this ask. 😊 Thank you for your input!
