MASTERLIST - F1
As you settled into the car, Lando glanced over at you, a hint of concern in his eyes. "Are you really sure you want to join me today?" he asked, his fingers gently intertwining with yours.
He pressed a soft kiss to your knuckles, a gesture that both comforted and excited you.
The thought of watching him interact with the animals at Battersea was thrilling, yet the idea of being around dogs made your heart race with anxiety.
You had promised him you would be there, and despite your fears, you were determined to support him.
"I know I said I would come, but you have to understand, Lando," you replied, your voice tinged with uncertainty. "Dogs make me really nervous. What if one jumps on me or barks? I just don’t know how I’ll handle it."
You could see the warmth in his eyes as he listened, his expression a mix of understanding and encouragement. "I’ll be right by your side the whole time," he reassured you, his smile infectious.
"And I promise, I’ll make sure you’re comfortable. Just think of all the cute puppies we might see!"
With a deep breath, you nodded, trying to quell the flutter of anxiety in your stomach. "Okay, I’ll give it a shot," you said, determination creeping into your voice.
"That’s a good girl," Lando murmured softly, his breath brushing against your knuckles as he kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead.
The warmth of his words wrapped around you like a comforting blanket, easing some of the tension that had built up inside. As the car sped along the winding road, you could feel the adrenaline coursing through your veins.
"You really think I can do this?" you asked, glancing at him with a mix of hope and uncertainty.
Lando shot you a reassuring smile, his confidence in you shining through. "Absolutely. Just remember, it’s all about believing in yourself. I’ll be right here with you every step of the way."
As you pulled into Battersea, the sight of a bustling crowd of staff waiting eagerly for Lando caught your attention.
The moment he parked the car, he hopped out with a bright smile, rushing around to open the door for you.
"After you," he said, his eyes sparkling with enthusiasm. You stepped out, feeling a mix of excitement and nerves as the staff greeted you both warmly.
"Welcome! We're so glad you're here!" one of them exclaimed, leading the way inside.
Once inside, a friendly veterinarian approached you, clipboard in hand. "Thank you both for coming today. We’re thrilled to have you support our charity," she said, her voice filled with warmth. "The video will feature Lando holding some of our adorable animals to help raise awareness."
Lando's face lit up at the mention of the animals. "I can’t wait to meet them! They’re going to steal the show!" he replied, his enthusiasm infectious.
You, however, felt a flutter of anxiety in your stomach. "What if I mess up and scare them?" you whispered to Lando, glancing around at the bustling staff.
Sensing your unease, Lando gently squeezed your hand, offering reassurance. "You’ll be amazing, trust me. Just think of all the good we’re doing here," he said, his voice steady and calming.
"And besides, it’s just us and some cute animals. What could go wrong?" You took a deep breath, trying to absorb his confidence.
"Okay, you’re right. Let’s do this," you replied, feeling a little more at ease.
Lando settled onto a stool, his excitement palpable as he prepared for the video shoot.
Behind the cameraman, you offered him a reassuring thumbs up, a gesture that made him beam with enthusiasm. "Thanks for the support!" he called out, his voice filled with warmth.
The anticipation in the room was electric, and Lando couldn't wait to share his passion for Battersea, where he would soon meet some adorable furry companions.
As the camera began rolling, Lando's face lit up with a genuine smile. "Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to be here today to talk about Battersea," he began, his tone inviting and friendly.
"This amazing charity does incredible work for animals in need, and I can't wait to meet some of the little ones looking for a forever home."
Just then, a staff member entered the frame, cradling a fluffy cat in their arms.
With a gentle motion, they placed the feline on Lando's lap, and he instantly wrapped his arms around it, his heart melting at the sight.
"Look at this little guy!" Lando exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with joy. The cat purred contentedly, and Lando leaned in closer, speaking softly to it.
"Aren't you just the cutest? I bet you have a lot of love to give." He turned back to the camera, still cradling the cat.
"If you're thinking about adopting, I encourage you to visit Battersea. There are so many wonderful animals just waiting for someone to take them home."
His passion was infectious, and it was clear that this moment was just the beginning of a beautiful connection between Lando, the cat, and the cause he so deeply cared about.
Lando was having the time of his life at the animal sanctuary, surrounded by a delightful mix of creatures both big and small.
"Look at all these animals!" he exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with excitement as he spotted a fluffy dog wagging its tail and a curious cat peeking from behind a door.
However, not everyone was as enthusiastic. You were sitting on the ground, feeling a bit overwhelmed as some of the animals approached you.
"Oh no, please don’t come too close!" you squeaked, making a noise that startled them away.
Watching them retreat made you feel a little sad, as you wished you could enjoy their company without the fear.
As Lando continued to explore, he stumbled upon a trio of playful puppies who were clearly the best of friends. "Hey, look at these little guys!" he called out, plopping down on the floor to get a better view.
The three puppies bounded over, their tiny paws pattering against the ground as they curiously sniffed at Lando's watch and playfully tugged at his necklace.
"Aren't they just the cutest?" Lando laughed, his heart melting at their antics.
You couldn’t help but smile at the sight, feeling a warmth spread through you as you watched the joyful scene unfold.
Suddenly, one of the puppies broke away from the group and trotted over to you, its little tail wagging furiously. "What are you doing down there?" it seemed to ask with its big, innocent eyes.
Despite your noise of fright, the puppy was undeterred and continued to inch closer until it finally climbed into your lap.
"Oh, hey there, little one!" you said softly, your heart racing with a mix of fear and delight.
You gently scooped the puppy into your arms, feeling its soft fur against your skin.
"You’re not scary at all," you whispered, beginning to pet it slowly.
The puppy leaned into your touch, and in that moment, all your worries melted away, replaced by the pure joy of connection.
"Aren't you a brave little one?" you said, your voice softening as you reached out to stroke its head.
Lando watched the scene unfold with a teasing grin. "See? I told you they weren't all bad," he remarked, his tone light and playful.
You glanced up at him, a smile spreading across your face as you continued to pet the puppy, feeling its warmth and energy.
"I guess you were right," you replied, your heart melting at the sight of the puppy snuggling into you.
The room filled with laughter and joy as the other two puppies joined in, creating a delightful whirlwind of fur and fun around you both.
As the video played on, the two other puppies scampered off, leaving the first one nestled comfortably on your lap, its tiny body warm and still.
You found yourself mesmerised by the scene unfolding on the screen, your fingers gently stroking the soft fur of the puppy.
Lando was busy at work, his focus unwavering as he played with more furry friends but your attention was split between the adorable creature in your lap and the captivating content of the video.
When the video finally came to an end, Lando stood up and made his way over to you, a playful grin lighting up his face. He knelt down beside you, reaching out to give the puppy some affection as well.
"We should definitely take this little guy home," he said, his voice filled with excitement as the puppy eagerly licked his fingers, its tail wagging furiously.
You couldn’t help but smile at the sight, but a sense of reality quickly washed over you.
"Lando, we can't do that," you replied softly, trying to avoid the puppy's pleading gaze. "You know we have enough on our plate already, with your job and my work."
You felt a pang of guilt as the puppy looked up at you with those big, innocent eyes, but you knew that bringing a new pet into your lives would only complicate things further.
Lando sighed, his enthusiasm dimming slightly, but he wasn’t ready to give up just yet. "Come on, just think about it! This little one needs a home, and we could give it a great life," he countered, his eyes sparkling with hope.
You could see the determination in his expression, and for a moment, you found yourself wavering.
It turned out that the puppy you had fallen in love with was not meant to be yours.
As you showered the little furball with affection, the staff gently pried it away from your arms, the puppy's mournful howls echoing in the air as it was taken back.
"I’m really going to miss you, little one," you whispered, your heart aching as you watched the staff carry the puppy away.
The warmth of its tiny body lingered on your skin, and you couldn’t shake the feeling of loss as you left the shelter.
On the drive home, Lando glanced over at you, noticing the distant look in your eyes. "You okay? You seem a bit out of it," he asked, concern etched on his face.
"I just can’t stop thinking about that puppy," you admitted, your voice barely above a whisper. "It was so sweet, and I felt such a connection. I wish I could have taken it home."
Lando nodded, understanding your sentiment.
"I get it. That place is full of amazing dogs. But hey, we can always go back and visit," he suggested, trying to lift your spirits.
Dinner was a quiet affair, with Lando chatting about the other dogs he had seen at Battersea. You nodded along, but your mind was elsewhere, drifting back to the puppy's big, soulful eyes.
"You know, I can’t help but imagine what it would be like to have that little guy running around the house," you mused, a smile creeping onto your face despite the sadness.
Lando chuckled, "Well, if you keep daydreaming about it, we might just have to make a trip back to the shelter. Who knows, maybe it’s meant to be!"
His playful tone brought a glimmer of hope, and for a moment, you allowed yourself to dream again.
It was the day of the British Grand Prix, and Lando was buzzing with excitement to race on home soil. He was deep in conversation with his team, going over the strategies that could make or break his performance on the track.
Meanwhile, you found yourself in the Ferrari garage, catching up with Alex, Charles' girlfriend.
The atmosphere was electric, filled with the sounds of engines revving and the chatter of team members preparing for the race.
"Hey Y/N! It's so good to see you!" Alexandra exclaimed, her face lighting up as she rushed over to give you a warm hug.
You smiled, feeling the warmth of her enthusiasm. "I'm great, thanks! And you look absolutely stunning today," you complimented, taking a moment to admire her vibrant outfit that perfectly matched the Ferrari colors.
"Thank you! I wanted to wear something special for the race," she said, twirling playfully. "Are you excited to see Lando in action? I know you can’t wait to cheer him on!"
"Absolutely! He’s been working so hard, and I know he’s going to give it his all out there," you replied, glancing towards the pit lane where Lando was deep in discussion with his engineers.
Alexandra nodded, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. "I just hope Charles can keep up with him! It’s going to be a fierce competition today."
You both shared a laugh, knowing how competitive the atmosphere could get. "I think it’s going to be a thrilling race. The energy here is incredible!" you said, gesturing to the bustling garage filled with mechanics and team members.
As the minutes ticked down to the start of the race, you and Alexandra decided to grab a quick snack from the hospitality area. "Let’s go grab some food before it gets too hectic," she suggested, leading the way.
While walking, you chatted about everything from the latest team updates to your favorite moments from previous races. "Remember that time Lando almost won in Silverstone last year? The crowd went wild!" you reminisced, laughing at the memory.
"Yes! I was on the edge of my seat! I can only imagine how he feels racing here today," Alexandra replied, her excitement palpable.
Once you reached the hospitality area, you both grabbed some sandwiches and drinks, trying to soak in the atmosphere.
Alex took a sip of her drink, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Is there something on your mind that you wanted to discuss?"
You feigned surprise, raising an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"
"Come on," Alexandra replied, leaning in closer. "You always have these little heart-to-hearts before a race if something's bothering you. Is it about Lando?"
"Absolutely not!" you exclaimed, a bit too quickly.
With a resigned sigh, you shifted the conversation. "Okay, let me ask you this: when did you realize that Leo was the perfect dog for you?"
Alex's expression softened, and she set her drink down, clearly intrigued. "Oh, that’s a story! It was a chilly afternoon at the shelter. I was just browsing, not really planning to adopt anyone. But then I saw him—this scruffy little mutt with big, soulful eyes. He was just sitting there, looking up at me like he knew I needed him."
You leaned in, captivated. "What happened next?"
"Well, I walked over, and he wagged his tail like crazy. I knelt down, and he licked my face as if to say, 'Pick me!' I was smitten right then and there. But I hesitated. I thought about my busy schedule, the races, the travel. Could I really take care of a dog?"
"That’s a tough decision," you said, nodding. "What made you go for it?"
Alex chuckled, her eyes lighting up with the memory. "I took him for a quick walk around the block. He was so full of energy, darting around and sniffing everything. I felt this connection, like he was meant to be part of my life. By the time we got back, I knew I couldn’t leave without him."
"That’s amazing! So, you just went for it?" you asked, genuinely impressed.
"Pretty much! I filled out the paperwork, and before I knew it, I was walking out of there with Leo by my side. It felt right. He’s been my little sidekick ever since, always there to cheer me up after a tough or long day."
"Why did you ask though, last time I checked you were scared of animals," Alex asked curiously.
"Me and Lando went to Battersea yesterday and there was this dog who really bonded with me, he was literally begging me not to leave him," you explained.
"Aww Y/N, you already had all the signs you needed but are you sure you're ready for a dog, it can be hard work,"
You gave a small smile, "I'm sure, I'm already missing him,"
As you stepped into Battersea, a wave of excitement washed over you. The atmosphere buzzed with the sounds of barking and playful yips.
You approached the receptionist, your heart racing with anticipation.
"Excuse me, could you please direct me to the three dogs?" you inquired, your voice filled with eagerness. The staff member smiled warmly and gestured for you to follow.
Soon, you found yourself in a cozy room where three adorable puppies were tumbling over each other, their tails wagging furiously.
The sight brought an instant smile to your face, a moment of pure joy.
Just then, one of the puppies, a half-brown bundle of energy, caught sight of you.
Without a moment's hesitation, he broke away from his siblings and dashed toward you, his little legs moving so fast that he nearly stumbled.
You couldn't help but laugh at his clumsy enthusiasm.
As he reached you, you bent down and scooped him up into your arms, feeling the warmth of his tiny body against you.
"Hey there, little guy! Remember me?" you cooed, your heart swelling with affection.
The puppy looked up at you with big, hopeful eyes, and in that instant, you knew there was a connection.
"Can I adopt him?" you blurted out, your voice filled with urgency and hope.
The staff member, who had been observing the interaction, nodded with a knowing smile. "Absolutely! He’s a real sweetheart. We call him Chase," she replied, her eyes twinkling with delight.
You could hardly contain your excitement as you cradled Max in your arms, envisioning all the adventures you would share together.
"I can’t wait to take you home, buddy," you whispered, feeling as if you had just found a missing piece of your heart. . . .
He had just achieved a remarkable milestone by winning a home race for the very first time! As soon as he parked his car, an overwhelming rush of excitement surged through him.
He leaped out and was immediately enveloped by his team members, who caught him in a jubilant embrace, their faces beaming with pride and happiness for his victory.
The atmosphere was electric, filled with cheers and laughter as they celebrated this significant moment together.
After a few moments of revelry, Lando removed his helmet, taking a deep breath as he scanned the crowd for a familiar face.
"Where is Y/N?" he inquired, his voice laced with curiosity as he approached one of the staff members.
The staff member looked around, momentarily puzzled, before exclaiming, "I haven't seen her—oh, there she is!" They pointed excitedly behind him.
When he pivoted on his heels, he was completely unprepared for the sight that greeted him.
There you stood, radiating beauty in a vibrant papaya-colored dress that hugged your figure perfectly, the fabric shimmering in the sunlight.
The dress, adorned with delicate floral patterns, swayed gently with the breeze, accentuating your every movement.
In your arms, you cradled a half-brown dog, its fur a delightful mix of rich chocolate and warm caramel, with big, expressive eyes that seemed to sparkle with mischief.
Without a moment's hesitation, Lando dashed over to you, a wide grin spreading across his face.
"I'm sorry I was late," you said, a hint of guilt in your voice as you looked up at him.
He shook his head, dismissing your concern with a soft smile. "You're just in time, baby," he murmured, leaning in to plant a gentle kiss on your lips.
The world around them faded away as they shared that intimate moment, the joy of his victory mingling with the warmth of your presence, making it a day he would never forget.
You were the first to pull away, your heart racing as you playfully slapped his chest. "You can't just kiss me like that in front of everyone!" you exclaimed, half-laughing, half-serious.
He shrugged, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I don’t care," he replied with a smirk, clearly enjoying the moment.
"This dress looks amazing on you. And who’s this little guy?" He leaned closer, his curiosity piqued by the playful pup that wagged its tail enthusiastically, as if it could sense the warmth of the moment.
You felt a rush of warmth flood your cheeks as you smiled back at him. "This is Chase, our new dog," you replied, your heart swelling with pride.
Lando's expression shifted to one of surprise, his eyes widening in disbelief. "Our dog?" he echoed, clearly taken aback by the sudden addition to your little family.
You nodded enthusiastically, eager to share the news. "Yeah, I filled out the paperwork yesterday and even picked up some toys for him before I came over."
Before you could finish your thought, Lando leaned in and kissed you softly, leaving you momentarily speechless.
"Oh hi buddy! I'm your dada now! Come here!" he exclaimed, his voice rising in pitch as he scooped Chase into his arms.
The puppy squirmed happily, licking Lando's face as if to welcome him into the family.
You watched the scene unfold, your heart brimming with happiness, knowing that this was just the beginning of many joyful moments together. . . .
The presenter beamed at Lando Norris, excitement radiating from his voice. "Lando Norris! You've finally clinched victory at your home race. What’s going through your mind right now?"
Lando, balancing the microphone in one hand while cradling his dog, Chase, in the other, took a moment to gather his thoughts.
He gently shushed Chase, who was squirming with enthusiasm, and the dog settled down, resting comfortably in his arm.
With a broad smile, Lando replied, "Honestly, it feels incredible to win here! There have been so many unexpected twists and turns throughout the race, much like my little buddy here."
He gestured toward Chase, who seemed to understand the moment and wagged his tail in agreement.
The crowd erupted in cheers, their energy palpable as they celebrated the local hero's triumph.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let’s give a warm welcome to Chase Norris!" Lando announced, holding the microphone closer to the dog.
Chase responded with an enthusiastic bark, which only fueled the crowd's excitement further.
Lando laughed, feeling the joy of the moment wash over him.
"This victory is for all of you, and for my family—both human and furry!"
The audience roared with approval, happy to see another furry friend on the paddock.
Lando chuckled, leaning closer to the mic again. "You know, this little guy was a gift from Mrs. Norris," he quipped, casting a sidelong glance at you.
The moment he said it, he could see your eyes widen in disbelief, your expression a mix of shock and amusement.
It was a classic Lando move, and he reveled in the reaction he had sparked.
"Mrs. Norris?" The presenter repeated, their eyebrow raised as they also looked at you.
"Well it will happened soon so might as well get used to the name now," Lando said, grinning. "And guess who's going to be the ring bearer in my wedding, yeah you Chase! You're the ring bearer!"
You had to forcefully take Chase away for Lando to finally concentrate in his interview.
As you looked at Chase, you know this little doggie was going to be the mini version of his dad but you weren't complaining.
Our little Chase Norris. . . .

Hi! I've read your writing about the supermodel! I'm obsessed with it! Can you do something similar but make the MC/reader an idol?
Idol
Xavier; Zayne; Rafayel; Sylus; Caleb; Jeremiah; Greyson; Thomas; Luke & Kieran x female!reader
Genre: fluff
Warnings: may come out a little suggestive if you squint (Xavier; Sylus; Greyson), alcohol (Thomas), hinted at bisexual reader in Luke & Kieran's part
Note: OMG HELL YES, I was really confused if the idea was supposed to be about just idol, or a k-pop kind of idol so I went with the idea of the reader being a soloist whether k-pop or not - doesn't matter
for masterlist and request info head to the navigation →
Music is what feelings sound like...
Xavier

How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
~ „Rewrite The Stars” Zac Efron, Zendaya
★ falls asleep listening to your music, makes it his ringtone, all of his chores are done while humming to it, he's obsessed in the cutest way
★ oh if you'd ever write a song inspired by him; expect him to not leave you alone for at least two weeks straight, he will be tailing you like a puppy wherever you go (if you're already on this stage in a relationship then bathroom included, you can lock the door but this dude can teleport sooo...)
★ would get any merch you release and would (will) make you sign it (please add a little heart or a star to your autograph every now and then, he will cherish those pieces the most)
★ after your concerts, late at night in your shared home, you would have a private concert between just the two of you and occasionally you would also invite animals that came to visit you
"Xavier my voice is dead, you have to sing solo." you laughed while taking a sip of water from your bottle.
"But without my other half this song isn't as special as it's supposed to be, it's our song." he complained, while looking too cute with a little frown on his face.
"Then pick another song, and this one we'll sing together tomorrow, deal?" you came closer to him, your arms curling around his neck, hugging him.
You swore that the brightest stars of tonight's sky were hidden in his eyes, looking at you as if reflecting your shine, as if your joy was what made him truly the happiest.
With a quiet sight he complied, agreeing to continue your little concert another day, letting your vocal cords rest after hours of singing.
You felt his hands tightening its hold at your waist before casting you up, making you cling to him even more, while your legs wrapped around his waist. You threw him a questioning look, but he simply smiled while proceeding to carry you towards your shared bathroom.
"Xavier? May I ask what exactly are you doing?" you giggled a bit while he sat you down at the edge of the tub.
"Planning to spoil you and get you ready for bed." he said casually while already starting to prepare a bath.
"So the first point of your little plan is running me a bath?" he nodded, not looking at you, too focused on getting the right temperature of water "Will you join me?" now you got his attention. Seeing your smiley face he wouldn't even dream of refusing, deciding to simply chuckle to himself and nod his head once more.
Zayne

Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally
There is no fear now
Let go and just be free
~ „Unconditionally” Katy Perry
★ makes sure that you don't overwork yourself, which sometimes may be hard while your new album is about to drop or a tour is approaching
★ sometimes, especially in the evening when it's just the two of you in the quietness of your home, you like to sit in his office and write songs while he works, some lyrics would never leave your notes, too personal to share them with the world
★ would attend award ceremonies with you, however he won't walk the red carpet by your side, when asked about it he simply says that it's only your moment to shine, but you know that it's just because he's not fully comfortable with that kind of attention on him
★ if you play instruments in a different room while he's working he would purposely leave the door to his office open, same with singing, once he'll finished with all of the documents he would go to find you and listen to you in person, sometimes hiding behind the wall as 'not to distract you'
He heard another faint note coming from the piano in the living area of your home, soon accompanied by your voice, so quiet and soft that Zayne almost couldn't catch it.
Looking at the clock in the corner of the monitor of his work laptop and noticing the late hour he decided to call it a night. The rest of his work can wait until tomorrow, now he wanted to spend the remaining hours of the day with his love, and nothing could stop him.
He left his office and made his way through the dark corridor, his steps quiet, not wanting to alert you of his presence, planning to stay unnoticed for a while and enjoy your little concert.
And just like any other time: he succeeded.
He leaned against the wall on the other side of the room while watching your back, slightly lit garden making as your background behind the huge window.
If recorded - this moment could fit perfectly in one of your future music videos, but instead it was just his to savor.
A perfectly played melody synchronized with your voice sounded like an angel singing lullaby accompanied by the gentle noises of its wings swaying in the air.
Unnoticed by him the song finally came to an end, last note leaving the instrument before your finger left the key.
Seconds later the sound of a quiet applause from behind your back stirred you, quickly you turned around on your seat, catching eye contact with your lover.
"Will there finally come a time when you'll stop sneaking up on me when I play?" you teased with not even a hint of irritation in your voice.
"I simply do not wish to disturb your focus, once you're fully into the song you tend to lose yourself in it. I wouldn't dream of breaking that state." his smirk made you let out a quiet giggle.
"Come and join me."
Rafayel

Ain't no prayer, ain't no God that could save us from our love
Ain't no rainfall, ain't no flood that could drown all our sorrow
~ „Lovers In The Dark” Sophie Morelli
★ in a pack with a boyfriend you got yourself a free stylist, well not exactly free, but your payment now are kissed and complements
★ poor Thomas would never hear the end of Raf's ramblings about you... "Rafayel I know that your girlfriend is really really important to you BUT I NEED YOUR ASS TO GET BACK TO PAINTING, WE HAVE CUSTOMERS!" while Rafayel stays in his seat, unbothered, ordering thousands of new designer clothes for you - yeah it's hard to be a manager of such a diva
★ would put his artistic soul to use when you need a new album cover, either would paint something inspired by your song or play your photographer for a bit
★ concerts backstage can get really chaotic sometimes, all sets of hands put to work, making sure that everything will go smoothly - and Rafayel making sure that you look your absolute best (girl fire your stylist at this point)
"Babe who hurt you?" he looked at you looking genuinely terrified.
"Rafayel. It's just an outfit, I'll be fine." your gaze returned to a mirror, trying to believe in your own words.
"JUST AN OUTFIT?! Baby there's absolutely no way I'm letting you on stage in this... Horrible, horrible, piece of fabric." his eyes never left your clothes, his brows drew together in a grimace, half an hour was left before you'll need to wrap everything up and walk out to face the cameras and your fans, he needs to fix the mess your 'stylist' made.
"Can you fix it in twenty minutes?" you asked, the confidence disappearing from your expression, looking at him with a plead. Instantly he moved towards your wardrobe, pulling you after him.
"Give me ten." he signaled for you to take off this outfit while busying himself in the countless clothes, working his art.
He'll be damned if he'll let you leave this room in anything less than gorgeous and fabulous.
He had a mission to fulfill, and your image to protect.
Hours later he waited in your changing room for the people to stop running around you, logging onto his social media to see any new posts about you.
WHO'S THAT DIVA???
DOES SHE LIKE WOMEN TOO? Asking for a friend.
I don't think so, she took her bf on the red carpet last time 😔
WHYYYY, WHO DOES HE THINK HE IS TO STEAL HER FROM US
seeing people just now discovering that she dates Rafayel is wild
WAIT. I JUST GOT TO KNOW THAT SHE'S TAKEN AND NOW YOU'RE TELLING ME SHE DATES THE RAFAYEL??? 😭😭😭
Idk who I am more jealous about...
⬆️⬆️⬆️ literally me
BISEXUAL PANIC 🫡
He chuckled to himself, yeah he won the world the moment you agreed to date him.
Sylus

They say all good boys go to Heaven
But bad boys bring Heaven to you
It's automatic
It's just what they do
~ „Heaven” Julia Michaels
★ mysterious boyfriend pt. 2 - the one and only time when your fans 'saw' him was in one of your mv's, but only his back was visible while you were clinging to his side, at first they thought that it was some random actor but then they saw the same white hair on one of your social media stories and rumors started to fly
★ would give twins the tickets to your concert under the excuse of watching you in case someone came there to hurt you, but in reality it's just because he knows they enjoy your concerts and wants them to have some fun
★ he'll ensure your safety on any kinds of events, not trusting your company to take care of it properly
★ in one interview you mentioned that your partner is absolutely tone-deaf, laughing about it, saying how opposites attract, in another one you said how your partner loves your singing and how they are your biggest supporter and inspiration
You just stepped out of your morning shower, putting on underwear you went to sit down on a stool before the mirror, about to dry your hair and do your morning beauty routine.
With the loud humming of the hair dryer drowning out other noises you began to sing, loudly, thinking that no one will hear it.
Well, you were wrong.
About a minute in you noticed a silhouette standing by the door.
Damn you should really learn to lock it.
"Sylus?" you asked, turning the hair dryer off, watching him through the mirror's reflection.
"Don't mind me sweetheart. I'm just enjoying the show." you turned around to face him with your face expression screaming 'really?', but he remained unbothered, reaching to close the door and right after taking a couple steps your way finding himself right behind you "Allow me."
The hair dryer was gently taken away from your hand, your eyes met his in the mirror, smile threatened to show on your lips, but you still tried to keep up the facade of annoyance.
Yet completely unbothered Sylus began drying your hair, humming a tune in the meantime, a sound that you almost didn't catch.
Seeing his eyes focused on your hair, you closed your own in a relaxed manner, your voice synchronizing with his when you started to hum the well-known melody of the song you wrote for him a long time ago.
A quiet domesticated moment before your long day began was something that you didn't even know you needed today, but were absolutely grateful that it happened. Grateful that you had someone to share this morning with.
Caleb

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now, wish right now, wish right now
~ „Airplanes” B.o.B, Hayley Williams
★ imagine being highschool sweethearts with Caleb, every girl being jealous of you, sending you hateful glances every time they saw you leaning on his arm during a break between the classes, and every guy either congratulating him on dating you or plotting to steal you away from him
★ and in the middle of it all: both of you just didn't care - too busy with admiring the other to notice the jealous looks you received at every corner, every gift given to you by someone else than your lover being either rejected or thrown away
★ everyone knew that you'll go far in life, with his plans about becoming a pilot and your dreams of existing in the music industry, supporting each other in your goals
★ and with another concert bringing a huge echo on the news questions started floating around you; did you have a partner? Well that was a secret no one knew the truth about, with you dodging any question regaining your private life like a pro
The screams and cheering felt like home, you standing with a microphone before thousands of people, feeling like you made it.
Another song starting to play, the show going on, you and your dancers flowlessly navigating through the stage, during one of the quiet moments between the verses, your eyes began scanning the front row, eager to meet one pair of eyes watching you.
And sure enough: among the sea of flashes, phones and signs one immediately caught your eye.
[ Your Wish Is Here 🍎⭐]
A giggle slipped out from your mouth, your mic catching the sound before you moved your face away, cheers erupted from everywhere around you, your eyes met his.
The next words before you came back to singing got an even louder reaction from the crowd.
"All of my wishes came true already." and the lyrics of your song began floating out of your mouth, all the while holding the eye contact with those beautiful violet eyes.
You made it.
Jeremiah

Lilacs for all of the lies
Daisies for days that I cried
I love to watch 'em as they die
Orchids when I want a kiss
All that I need is your tulips on mine
~ „Don't Send Me Flowers” Sorana
★ to say that you were an unexpected match would be an understanding. A humble florist with a worldwide music star? Yeah, maybe in a dreams.
★ your fans knew that you had someone, the smile on your face every time you were asked about your partner was telling them enough, even if your mouth didn't.
★ in reality this match was as if made in Heaven: your radiating kindness together with his calm but sweet demeanor, never before have you had a partner that was so understanding and patient with you
★ the truth as to why you never spoke his name was a mystery, you talked about him so much, they saw you with him every now and then, so why was his name such a high guarded secret?
"So... Are you coming with me for the next tour?" you asked in a hopeful tone, it was a week before the whole thing shall begin, and you had yet to hear an answer from his lips.
Today he texted you that he finally decided, you weren't particularly stressed, if he'll agree then you'll be happy, if he'll refuse then you'll be... well, less happy but still understanding and just slightly sadden by the fact.
The look on his face didn't tell you anything, perfectly calm and composed.
"Well I had a lot of thinking to do, and some work with the documents." his identity creates complications every now and then "And I've decided..." he made a dramatic pause, the hopeful look on your face made his heart throb.
"Well? Tell me! You kept me in the dark for too long Mister!" your expression turned into a fake annoyance, unable to help himself he chuckled.
"I'll come with you." instantly you jumped onto him, almost making you both fall in the process but he managed to steady you in time, damn he's actually kinda strong...
The smile didn't leave either of your faces for the rest of the day, your happiness caused by his agreement and his caused by your joy.
Yeah, a perfect harmony.
Greyson

And every time we touch, boy, you make me feel weak
I can tell you're shy, and I think you're so sweet
Spendin' every night under covers and
Still I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me?
~ „Woman Like Me” Little Mix, Nicki Minaj
★ imagine him being your fan previously to your meeting and relationship, nothing too intense, but he knew you and your music well enough to recognize you
★ now imagine his shock when he randomly saw you sitting at the quiet cafe he often visited after leaving his work, enjoying your favorite drink while occupied by a book lying open before you
★ he tried not to stare, you probably came there to relax and wouldn't wish to be bothered by a fan asking for a photo or autograph, so he tried to go about his day, trying to act like he totally didn't recognize his celebrity crush
★ now imagine his shock when you spoke to him when he was passing by your table, saying that his glasses suit him, a nice compliment turned into an hour spent talking to each other, with him leaving the cafe with an autograph in his notebook, a photo with you hugging him, and your number to top that
"Darling do you know where my Saint Laurent heels are?" he heard your voice coming from the bathroom, probably finishing up your make-up.
Turning off the stove he went to the bedroom, knowing where to look for your (expensive) shoes.
And sure enough: they were there, lying carelessly in the corner of your room, the memories of how they ended up there bringing a blush to his face.
He picked them up, much more carefully than you when you dropped them to the floor, and headed back to give them to you.
Just as he left the bedroom he saw you, standing before the body length mirror put right next to the entrance door, fixing your jewelry.
He took a second to admire you, the way your body looked in your carefully picked outfit, the way your hair looked absolutely perfect and your make-up imitating a professional work.
How did he even got to date you?
Oh, right, he didn't, you picked him, grabbed him by a collar like you would a kitten saying 'This one's mine.' and he just accepted it (gladly).
"Darling? My shoes?" your voice brought him back from a daydream, he met your eyes through the mirror's reflection, a knowing smile formed on your lips.
He rushed towards you, showing you the items in his hands.
"Thank you darling." you kissed his cheek, unknowingly to him leaving a lipstick mark.
You bent to put on the shoes, with him moving away to pick up your purse, handing it to you once you stood up straight.
You took your possession from him and moved your palm to caress his cheek for a second, gracing him with one more smile of yours before turning around and leaving the walls of your shared apartment.
Thomas

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
~ „Enchanted” Taylor Swift
★ you met him during one of the after parties after a gala that he attended with (instead of) Rafayel, he was sipping nonalcoholic drink, rethinking all of his life choices after another one of artist's runaways from the cameras
★ imagine your drunk ass laughing from something that your friends were saying, unnoticed by you coming too close to a tables put on the higher platform and falling in a way that had you landing right on Thomas's lap
★ it was a start to your love story, you spend an evening together, talking about the industries and random life fun-facts, the night ending in him driving you home and exchanging numbers
★ you were one of the rising stars back then, overworked and underappreciated, you felt like you didn't have a say in your career, everyone deciding for you, even your social media were carefully monitored and you needed an approval from the management before posting anything, that was until Thomas put a stop to it
"You don't understand how much your career costs the company! Your music is better as it is, so leave your little notes in the trash and get back to the studio to work with the professionals." your manager, an old guy whose wife left taking the kids with her, screamed at you on the corridor, right after another long, boring meeting regarding your status in the industry.
"If only they would take a peek at my lyrics maybe it would work for the be-" you tried to argue, but the look he sent you made you quiet down instantly.
"I don't care about your little scribbles." harshly he yanked the papers from your hands, crumpling the paper with his grip "This is trash. Everything you do - is trash. So if you want us not to drop you and your little music career then just stay quiet and do what you're told." you felt the numbness creeping up on you, this isn't what you wanted your life to look like. You saw the old man opening up his mouth to probably let out more insults about you and your work, but another voice interrupted your conversation before he got the chance to continue.
"I'm pretty sure that insulting your artists is against the company's policy." you looked at Thomas, he told you that he'll be at a meeting in your work place today, he probably just finished up with that.
Before your manager could mutter out an excuse Thomas clicked something on his phone, a voice recording started playing, a proof of what happened a moment earlier.
You couldn't help the smile that threatened to show, he had lots of recordings like those actually.
You saw how the colors left your manager's face and knew that you caught him.
You shared a knowing look with Thomas, silently thanking him.
It will all be alright.
Luke & Kieran

Yeah, you fell in love
But you fell deeper in this pit
While death rains from above
So count your blessings 'cause this is it
You're not letting it go
So what if I misbehave? It's what everybody craves
~ „Addict” Michael Kovach, Chi-Chi
★ I hope you're ready for the chaos, because girl you're in for a ride. The amount of support you would get from every single man above but make it double.
★ imagine being a loud, confident, outspoken woman in the industry, rising up high just as a teen, everyone knew who you are, either loving or hating you (you were probably a wake up call for young teens gayness)
★ none of the men could ever handle you, so who could blame you when you got yourself two super sweet and silly boyfriends, breaking a standard once again?
★ your partners were a mystery, people knew about them, sure, but they knew them without ever seeing their faces or knowing their names, the most of the info they got was when a video from the backside of your concert got leaked, showing a cute moment between you and two men, dressed in black comfy clothes covering them whole with a hood dropped over their heads and a masks
"You'll drop me!" your high pinched scream could be heard together with your laugh, and a loud chuckle from one of the two men.
One of them had you dropped over his shoulders, attempting to do a squat with you as his additional weight.
"OMG STOP!" you continued screaming while laughing, clearly having fun.
"Aaaaand..." the other guy followed you two down, cheering up on the man holding you "WE GOT IT!" he screamed when the other man came back to stand after his successful squat without dropping you,
"I'LL KILL YOU TWO!" you playfully tugged on their hair to which they both let out a couple of dramatic 'auw!'s.
The video ended with the camera dropping down and the sound of the three of you laughing,
Safe to say that it made a storm in the media.
I AM SORRFY WHSO ARE THEYD?
THATS WHAT ALL OF US WANT TO KNOW SIS
Well that was not on my 2048 bingo card...
my crush got herself 2 boyfriends and I'm fine with it. *sob*
I have a couple of not really appropriate questions.
*hides a notebook* a couple of whaaaaaat
Okay, so the bisexual Queen got a man. Two men. Chat how are we coping?
*cries into a pillow*
It's a hard day for us girlies out here.
We fight, she's held hostage🤺🤺🤺
OMG I JUST WOKE UP???!!! 🥹😭

analyzing the TIT preshow playlist
I don't remember when, but in a preshow dan said something about how he carefully curated the terrible influence playlist to reflect the exact themes of the show, and that like, you could listen to every song and analyze how it connects to the content of the tour. so I decided to do exactly that! yapping under the cut
also here's a link to the playlist if you haven't seen it!
now i'll be honest, at first i didn't entirely believe dan because he has a tendency to exaggerate things like that lmao. and i saw some of the selections on this playlist and was like "wdym that's about something completely different how is that connected to tit." but then i listened to it with phannie goggles on and like.. he was not kidding! a few of them are a stretch, but all of these songs could be read in a way that is thematically connected to the show.
we know that the tour's main theme is dan and phil healing their relationship with their audience. this is a parasocial relationship that has at times been incredibly toxic for both parties involved (that's what their own song was about). it got to be too much and they had to step away for a bit, but now they are SO BACK and better than ever in a new era where they're older and gayer and everyone's just having fun.
Idolize - Dorian Electra
parasocial moment! yeah this is 100% what’s going on. “i don’t play nice, I scratch, I bite / and I just might have to idolize your life” this is like, the whole problem, isn’t it? great choice for the first song
2. JOYRIDE - Kesha
this one’s so fun. as part of this playlist it’s kind of saying “get ready, this show is about to change your life.” there’s also the line “don’t even try to g-give me shit, i’ve earned the right to be-be like this” which kind of makes sense for this new era.
3. New Woman - LISA, ROSALÍA
i mean this song is about rebirth/ rediscovering yourself and gaining confidence so it definitely applies to this new era of dan and phil. i like the line “pain has come and gone again"
4. Otaku Hot Girl - Megan Thee Stallion
this is dnp recognizing the anime nerds in the audience lol. this song is funny, it’s also very confident which is becoming a theme
5. Drama - aespa
“i bring all the drama” i mean yeah that’s us. that’s this show
6. Talk To Me - Two Shell, FKA twigs
oooh this one’s good. “called you just to check you never wanna see me again / i fly high with the hope that you’ll look up / with one chance, i just wanna be the one that you love” this is like, during the hiatus. we just wanted to talk to them! and i think that goes for both sides!
7. Busy Girl - Tove Lo
another confidence song! this one specifically being more about hustling and being good at your job. dan and phil ARE busy girls. and they are the center of our world
8. Death and Romance - Magdalena Bay
i love this song! and it’s definitely about a toxic/ slightly codependent relationship. “my hands, your hands, I’ll hold forever / no way I’ll break hold, no, not ever / yeah i give and you give til it’s all that we have / you know nothing is fair in death and romance” and interestingly, at the end it changes to “you give and you give til it’s all that you have” which kind of signifies burnout on one side. dude!!
9. Starburned and Unkissed - Caroline Polachek
i had trouble with this one at first since the lyrics are so abstract, but the chorus starts with “come home,” and like. yeah. it’s about missing someone/ something. we’re literally coming home guys
10. So Long London - Taylor Swift
haha funny because they’re leaving london to go on tour. except wait a minute. “how much sad did you think I had / did you think I had in me? how much tragedy? just how low did you think I’d go before I’d self-implode / before I’d have to go be free?” ughh it’s hiatus!! we got a happy reunion eventually but this is the sad “breakup” before that. oof
11. Please Please Please - Sabrina Carpenter
ok the phannie interpretation of this is really funny. the song is about being ashamed of a partner who may not be the best person and how it reflects back on you. “I beg you, don’t embarrass me motherfucker” could definitely apply to both sides here. they’re saying “you guys are crazy but we love you anyway”
12. Lithonia - Childish Gambino
they’re in their era of not giving a fuck! wait this is crazy. “Cody LaRae / he had a break / he’s finding out that nobody gives a fuck” dan and phil had a break and then came back and found out their fans are chill and awesome!!
13. Heartbreak Feels So Good - Fall Out Boy
i haven’t listened to FOB in a long time but this song is really good. it’s kind of about going through a lot but having fun and dancing anyway. like it’s a very emotional song and we don’t even know what those emotions are anymore it’s just A Lot. “we could dance our tears away, emancipate ourselves” yeah!!
14. DiE4u - Bring Me The Horizon
another toxic relationship song! i like the bridge. “this isn’t love, this is a car crash / this isn’t love, this is a bloodbath / this isn’t love, this is a sentence” guys we’re stuck with each other.
15. This Is Why - Paramore
“this is why I don’t leave the house” i mean….. yeah lmao
16. LUNCH - Billie Eilish
this is kind of just a song about being lesbian. i mean it’s queer joy! that’s relevant! i think it’s here for the girl kissers in the audience and also because this album was the best of the year argue with the wall
17. Rush - Troye Sivan
and this one’s for the gays! this is a really obvious choice i mean it’s troye sivan. dnp sing this all the time too
18. Von dutch - Charli xcx
this one is SO good. the confidence song to end them all. “cult classic but i still pop” they’re literally number one you bitches could NEVER. dnp don’t really have haters or people pretending not to like them the way charli is singing about, but the song still fits so well and is just such a banger. fantastic choice
19. HOT TO GO - Chappell Roan
this is also just queer joy! it’s on here so that everyone can sing along and do the dance in the audience which was a 10/10 experience let’s go lesbians
20. Toxic - Britney Spears
the perfect one to end it on. the adrenaline that came with hearing this song start right before the show was insane, and like, the whole time i’ve been saying this is the story of a toxic relationship! so what better song to illustrate that, not to mention dnp’s history with it like it’s just beautiful.
ok that's the end hope you enjoyed reading my barely coherent rambling! lmao i figured at least a few of you give a shit about stuff like this so there you go. have a lovely day
#i feel like dan wanted people to do this so i'm just doing my part lol#like yeah man your genius is unmatched and your music taste is fire. whatever#dan and phil#dnp#phan#daniel howell#phil lester#terrible influence tour

TOMORROW NEVER CAME- P.B PARKER
pairing: dilf! cowboy! peter parker x innocent! fem! reader
word count: 1.2k
summary: a relaxing day with peter around the farm- inspired by tomorrow never came by lana del rey:)
warnings: dry humping, mentions/indications of smut, praise kink, size kink, manhandling, pet names, daddy kink, light spanking, swearing, age gap ofc (reader is of course, of age) mainly just fluff:)
authors note: a cowboy peter fic in 2025? hell yeah! this can be read as a standalone, its not persay a "part three" but its just a drabble of a typical summers day between the two of em<3 mood board below but it is simply vibes- not what reader looks like!
"roses are in your country house/ we played guitar in your barn/ and everyday felt like sunday, and i-/ i wish we had stayed home/ and i could put on the radio/ to our favourite song"- tomorrow never came, lana del rey
-------------------------------------------------------------
The sky was clear today.
It had been cloudy the last few days, and you had been cooped up, letting the rain pass over the crops, letting Mother Nature cry her tears to heal the cracked earth. Peter had been good to you, though.
He had insisted he needed you to help around the farm, despite the rain- simply to get you out of your fathers house.
He had listened to you, late at night when the sun slithered down to hide behind the trees about your issues with him. Peter could never look at him the same, the way he treated you- the way he made you feel.
Couldn't stand to let you go back there most nights.
So when you got the courage to open up to him, he’d sit you in his lap, letting you curl up as he rocked in the rocking chair on the porchfront. Stroking your hair, holding you just a little tighter when there was a chill in the air.
He made you feel so validated, so safe and cared for in his loving arms. Like the things you were talking about were in a different lifetime- or a fairytale.
You were just with him, his glass of scotch, and faint coo of the owls in the trees.
The two of you made the most out of the rainy days you had been having for the past few days- when you were able to convince your father that yes, Peter actually did help around the farm- despite the downpour.
The help was all to a minimum, as the second he picked you up and you were out of the driveway, his truck was pulled to the side of the dirt road and his lips were on yours.
You’re givinn’ me all the help I need sweetheart. Jus’ like that, atta girl. Let daddy make you feel good- yeah? You just help and show me that pretty pussy. He’d coo from where he kneeled between your spread legs on the couch- a low fire crackling in the room adding onto the heat that pooled between your thighs.
But today, you were as free as a bird, as you snuck out of Peters bed before he even rose, leaving a little note with a jam tart you had baked when he had fallen asleep in the armchair last night- cowboy hat slumped over his eyes.
The birds chirped as you rode one of his horses- Dallia out in rolling the meadows, the sunshine bathing you by the time you got back to the stables. Peter was out- probably off with the cattle, but you knew he’d be back soon.
You wasted no time popping a tart in your mouth for yourself as you skipped through the kitchen- letting the sweet sugary taste melt on your tongue as you hummed a little song.
It was a lazy day- you knew Peter didn't need any actual “help” (by help he meant you handing him one or two things, keeping him company, tending the garden and the animals) today, so an afternoon shower was in order.
You were never not amazed how pretty his house was- considering he was always busy with the farm and was an older man who lived alone. The antique picture frames that lead up the stairs were never dusty, the flowers always fresh in their vases (thanks to you) and there were always fresh towels by the opened bathroom window.
It looked over the horses grazing field, surrounded by thick trees, their leaves rustling in the warm summer breeze. One of the things that you loved about country life was the privacy. The windows were always open, the lace curtains ticking your legs as they fluttered.
You smiled, stepping into the shower while you hummed a little tune. It was so beautiful today. It was beautiful everyday when you were here- with Peter, even in the rain.
So you had found yourself outside, yet again- in a little gingam dress that was your favourite to wear in July. It matched the colour of the apples in the orchard, and the picnic blanket that was laid out under you.
You ran your fingers though Peter's salt and peppering hair, as he lay his head on your warm thighs, sprawled out on the blanket. It was tiring, working with his aching bones and sore back- but it made moments like this even more special and important to him.
He loved to take care of you more than anything- but it was nice when you could baby him- just a little.
You bit into a fresh apple you picked from the surrounding trees, letting the juice trickle down your chin. You bent down, planting a gentle kiss to the top of Peter's head, letting your fingers slide down from his hair to his shoulders, massaging the tense, hard working muscles.
He groaned in appreciation at the sensation.
“That feel good, old man?” you teased and he nodded. “S’good. You have magic hands sweet girl.”
“So I’ve heard.” you smiled, the sexual innuendo slipping off your tongue as sweet as honey. He had told you so many times when your smaller hands were wrapped around his thick cock that they were “magic”.
You made him feel like a teenage boy again, trying to not bust in his jeans at simple touches.
“You’re so strong, and you work so hard Peter. You’re so good to me.” you praised, making him smile, his dark eyes fluttering open to stare into yours with a look of such admiration it made your heart skip a beat.
“You always take care of me.” you went on, making him blush. “And you always make me feel so good. All warm and fuzzy.” you giggled, watching as he slid his head from your lap so he could reach over, swinging you like you weighed nothing, so you straddled his lap.
“Hey that tickles!” you shrieked as he tickled your sides, making you giggle and scrunch up your nose- something he found so adorable and sexy he could hardly stand it.
“You’re such a sweet girl. Always such sweet words drippin outta that mouth, you know that?” he murmured, hands sliding under the skirt of your dress to grip your ass, giving it a good smack.
You squeaked out at the sensation, butterflies pooling down to your core as he grabbed the flesh, giving it a few more quick smacks.
“Pete-r” you felt your body heat, unconsciously grinding on the roughness of the fly of his jeans, and the bulge that was underneath them.
“Yea atta girl, wet my jeans baby. Make a little mess- fuck. Such a pretty lil thing, makin daddy feel so loved and cared for.” he hummed, his words cut off as you leaned down to kiss him, tasting of sweet Gala and lipgloss.
You moaned, his hands guiding your hips as you grinded on him, leaving little stains from your soaked through cotton panties.
“You feel- s-so good-” you whimpered out, making him smirk cockily. You always found a way to boost his ego- whether you meant to do so or not. Reminded him nothing changed with his age.
“Yea? You like that?”
And all you could do was nod as he made you feel like you were basking in heaven on earth as you tangled in the grass, shielded from the rest of the world- with the slivers of sunlight making you glow.
This felt like the true meaning of love.
This was your little place of heaven, and it was all because of the man who was under you that made it possible.

Drown in You (Sanji x Reader)

Art by tsuyomaru
Prologue: It is no secret to the crew that you know soul magic. Robin was the first to understand what you were talking about - it is, after all, a practice from a far off island whose resident have all but vanished. While she would ask you actually engaging questions, almost all the others are just begging you to use it, but you refuse to budge and show them. You tell them about it though, wistfully and reverently. At first, Sanji would beg and wax poetic about it the most of all, but as you grow closer he learns to just listen. With your deepening trust and his lack of pushing, you decide it’s time to give him a taste of the heady bliss of brushing souls.
A/N: Getting this up quick before getting back to asks 👏🏻 This was written for me to practice using my magic stuff instead of just thinking about it lol I use it constantly in daydreams so why not try to actually get it down and see if others like it too 🤷🏼♀️ as far as this fic goes, visualization is used to control the energy of the soul then have it flow over Sanji then all his happy chemicals go ~W O W~
Word Count: ~3.8 k
Warnings: gn reader, just so much non-sexual intimacy, ✨magic✨, flirting, pet names (all gn), Sanji being down bad, reader finding it cute, it’s more opla down bad not anime down bad in this one, besides that I think he could be read as either
Hope you enjoy guiding Sanji through feeling a soul the first time 🤍🤍🤍
Suggested Music:
~ ~ ~ ••• ✦✦✦ ••• ~ ~ ~
“If you relax it will help,” you instructed.
Sanji was trying his best to relax but how could he? He had seen how dreamily you talked of your experiences with this, of how comforting and relaxing and intimate it felt. After somehow convincing his way into receiving the touch from you, he was ecstatic. Then the reality of it - of how vulnerable it would leave him - started to sink in and anxiety began to taint his excitement.
You laid a hand on top of his, stopping his fingers from tapping at his thigh. You didn’t have to reach far to touch him; both of you were sitting cross-legged on the floor, so close that your knees touched.
“Really, don’t worry,” you soothed. “We’re only brushing so you can get used to the feeling, yeah? It’ll be a lot at first, but nothing entangling or invasive. And we stop if anything’s too much.”
Sanji’s shining blue eyes took their time examining your own before turning to the floor. He hoped that looking at anything else would help him think; whenever your eyes met, his mind went blank. The patterns in the blanket separating you both from the sleeping mat didn’t help him find his words. Neither did the pillows and extra blankets encircling your seats. As you started to pull away, he felt your soft skin trail against the back of his hand and suddenly the words came.
“It’s okay, I’m fine,” Sanji rushed out. It took only a second for him to adjust back to flirtation. “Just got tongue-tied looking at you.”
You giggled at the cheesy line and how flustered he was. His practiced silver tongue didn’t seem to be helping him at the moment, which was probably making him even more nervous. You took mercy on him by not pointing it out.
Instead, you offered him your other hand and he quickly slid his into your upturned palm. He settled it so that your palms nestled into each other, giving you perfect access to run your thumb back and forth over the inside of his wrist. Sanji responds with a gentle squeeze. You pull your other hand away to resituate your hand-holding on that side to mirror the other. Sanji looked between both embraces with a soft affection that had your heart skittering. A deep breath helped steer you back on task.
“Okay. If we sync our breathing it will help the whole process and keep everything moving nice and slow,” you explained. Sanji gave you a short nod and a shaky smile. “Watch me and follow.”
You started by breathing through your nose until you felt the air refresh every corner of your lungs. Sanji held your gaze and followed the action a split second after he heard the soft sound of your inhale start. You held that air for just a moment before gently pursing your lips and slowly blowing the air through them. His eyes shot down to watch your lips and his breath left him in a short quiet sigh. The gentle breeze you blew out brushed the back of his hands. You started your next inhale fast to exaggerate the sound and it snapped him out of his trance. He smiled in apology, squinting those shiny baby blues of his, and got right back to following you.
The feeling of your lungs stretching out your ribs, and the pressure of the exiting air tingling your lips, was soothing your mind and body. The effect grew with the sounds of your own controlled breathing and amplified with Sanji’s mimicry until there was a pleasant murkiness to the edges of your thought. Judging by how hooded Sanji’s eyes had become, he was feeling it too. Time to start.
“Now keep your hands in mine, it may feel destabilizing if you pull away suddenly,” you gently warned, voice quiet in your unwillingness to disrupt the tranquil air.
“Comforting,” Sanji responded, scrunching his nose. He resettled his expression to the flirtatious one you were much more familiar with. “Promise to nurse me back to health if anything goes wrong?”
“How else am I supposed to get my favorite treats if you’re out of commission?” you teased.
“Say that you’re mine and I’ll give you all the treats the world has to offer,” he promised, earning an enabling chuckle out of you.
“Well, we’ll see if you can handle that,” you said, voice affectionate instead of condescending. “Now less talking, more breathing. I’m going to start and I want you to save your words for anything feeling uncomfortable.”
At his nod, you began.
Sanji watched with curiosity as you closed your eyes and stopped all motion except for your breathing. He thought you looked absolutely radiant sitting in the warm afternoon light cast through the porthole, drenched in bottomless peace. Matching your breath became second nature surprisingly quick, making his mind free to absorb every beloved detail of you sharing this with him and to charge with anticipation for your next move.
He felt but he did not see - no matter how hard he stared at the feeling manifesting on his skin, whatever was moving there stayed invisible to him. It started with your hands radiating warmth out, growing so gradually that he didn’t notice until it felt like his hands were shoved in laundry fresh from the dryer. The heat held steady for a moment, turning his grip lax as it melted any tension, before he felt the sensation change and grow up his arms. It felt both liquid and air against his skin; a summer breeze that swirled and toiled like an ocean current. A shiver crept up his spine, making the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. Each place the sensation curled and puffed across was stuck between enlivening with an electric flush and sinking into the heaviness of a body deep in sleep. By the time it was encroaching on his shoulder, bleeding straight through his clothes as if they didn’t exist, his breathing stuttered to something of a gasp.
Your concentration faltered at the sound, offering Sanji a light reprieve as the energy lost its ability to ignore his clothing. You opened your eyes to check in on your companion and gasp too. His eyes were hazy and staring at you like you had given him his first sip of water in days. His blue irises stood out even more above the light blush on his face, even with his love-blown pupils. You flushed at the look, but brushed it off; the first feeling is usually overwhelming and confusing and sets off many happy chemicals to douse the whole brain and body. You thought you hadn’t pushed out too much of your energy on him and it was all soothing and content, but his eyes told you that you had bombarded him with permeating affection. Too bad you couldn’t connect your energy to his to figure out precisely what he was feeling.
“Sanji, honey, talk to me,” you asked quietly, encouragingly. “What are you feeling?”
“I feel…” he started, but he trailed off and simply kept taking you in with his soft eyes. You squeezed his hands and bumped his knee with yours to jostle him a little closer to coherence.
“Sanji, is it bad?” He certainly didn’t look like it felt bad, but too much good can quickly lead that way.
“It’s… strange?” he offered. His brows scrunched from the difficulty he was having conjuring the right words. “Good strange. Breezy. Warm. It’s a lot though.”
“Too much?” you probed, already starting to lighten up the energy.
“No,” Sanji insisted, leaning towards you in his urgency. He caught the surprise in your eyes and forced himself back again. He cleared his throat. “Please.” He exhaled heavily. “Keep going, love.”
“As long as you're sure.” You took a deep breath yourself, needing to settle your own worry back into calm concentration. You gifted yourself a moment to caress his wrist with your thumb again, enjoying how soft the skin felt in comparison to his calloused fingertips. You gave one more warning: “It will peak before you adjust and it settles out.”
You did not wait for a response to continue. Shutting your eyes so sight wouldn’t battle you on your way back to your visualizations, you were back to your task. The way you’ve gotten success in controlling your own soul’s energy was with water imagery. In your mind’s eye, a lake behind your head leaked to the space between your eyes, where it poured down in a roaring waterfall. The majority of the torrent flooded down through your neck, into your ribcage, and along to the cradle of your pelvis. On the way, it bounced and flung off a boulder built of your heart and splashed to make trickles on your ribs, spine, and hips. There was, however, some water that took a different path. The highest rocks it crashed upon rested in your shoulders, making the water spray and rush its way down your arms. Its journey from rapids to stream took place along your forearms to control the flow by the time it reached your hands. There, the water became a gently swirling pool in each palm. By the time this vision had become immaculately clear to you again, Sanji’s grip had firmed back up on you.
Sanji’s nerves had worsened instead of smoothed out, but he'd be damned if he was going to back down from this. He needed to know that feeling you had tried to describe to him and the rest of the crew. And like he had said - it wasn’t bad, but it was.. startling? Unnerving? He knew the feeling was coming from his skin but it almost didn’t feel like it was his own skin; it felt like it was coming from a whole new body. It felt at once thrumming and alive as well as heavy and enveloping. He shut his eyes against the overwhelm.
With your own eyes closed, you had to use the strength and tremble of Sanji’s grip to guide you on when to pause and when to push forward. As you anticipated, the greatest reactions came when the mental water flowing from the pools in your palms up his arms snaked to wrap around his chest and then it inched further down still to dance around his waist and stomach. Through the process, he had shifted himself ever so slightly closer to you, seeking grounding and comfort in the flourish of feeling that threatened to puff his mind into smoke. Noticing his cute nudging closer, your heart burned with fierce affection for him. You had to hold yourself from releasing his hands to pull him into and embrace. That would be too much; he’s too unused to the process and you’re too unpracticed to keep the flow stable through that action.
Finally, you imagine the long journey of the water making its way over his hips and down his thighs to cover the remaining pieces of his body. All except the head. Saving it for last was generally the best idea for someone’s first time feeling the presence of a soul; the heart is where many emotions are held but the brain has the most ties to the soul. It was much better to prep it before the plunge.
“Sanji, are you doing okay? Ready for the last bit?” you checked.
“Anything you’re willing to give, love, I’ll take,” Sanji mumbled. He sounded pleasantly dazed like a drunk existing half in the waking world and half in dreams. You wished you could open your eyes to see him.
“It’s going to rise up over your head and then it should smooth out,” you explained. A lethargic hum resonating from the depths of his chest was his only response.
The conflicting reactions his body was giving to the river of air around him had begun to center slightly by the time you had spoken. All that progress went out the window when he felt little licks of wind flicking at his neck. He trembled under the electricity they buzzed along his spine, but found himself happy to be at their mercy. He felt so very alive and that in itself was stumping him. Had he been alive? Can you live before knowing a touch that feels so implicit after only a small taste? One of the few pieces of his mind that remembered the Before and that there’s an After to this experience was repeating the daunting fact that this is only the beginning of connecting to a soul. How beautifully terrifying.
More brushes of liquid air played off the skin of his neck and he found himself tilting his head back for more of it. The rise was steady, moving past the stubble of his chin, the ears peeking out from his hair, the ends of his bangs, his curled brows, and he was submerged.
For a split second, the impulse to jump to his feet and run until he was unable to move almost overtook him. He was a lit fuze and needed to burst or surely there would be agony. But agony never came. What came was the comfort of a morning bed on a taskless day. He was surrounded by perfectly radiating body heat in a dark cocoon. The unfamiliar aspect was how he felt like he was sitting underwater, weightless and gently rocking at the whims of a constantly swaying current. He distantly thought that if he’d open his eyes he’d find the dark pits of the ocean yawning around him and all he could find in himself to think of such a haunting notion was ‘how nice’.
Meanwhile, you were much more sure of agreeing to go through this whole thing because of how languid Sanji had become. His hands lay mostly limp in yours, except for the occasional movement of a finger to enjoy the feel of your skin. The little affections burst joy in your heart and made that path of water that your mind held flow richer and with more ease. Knowing he’d need at least several long minutes in this stage, you let yourself relax fully into your own meditation built on your rushing blue visions and his delicately moving fingertips. Just as he had learned to mirror your breaths earlier, your hands took to mimicking his own.
Time was a muddy thing from the moment he fell fully under until the moment his body was coming back to the world. It trickled in gradually, starting with the feeling of the blanket and mattress pad he sat on and ending with the brush of his clothes on his skin when he finally shifted. The great abyss around him shrunk back to the initial feeling of twirling winds over his skin. Unlike the initial feeling, this didn’t send his body and mind reeling; it left him warm and relaxed like a decadent hot oil massage. There was still a sense of being enveloped, though. It had him thinking back to the last time he had fallen asleep wrapped in the arms of another. Despite the easy comparison, there was no unsatiated hunger plaguing him from the closeness. He was at ease.
Sanji’s eyes began to blink open once they were ready, and he was glad they did. In front of him you sat as peaceful as he had ever seen you. Once he was able to move his gaze away from the little shadows your lashes cast onto your cheeks or the enchanting curves of your resting lips, he began fully taking you in. Slowly trailing his eyes over every detail, his heart swelled with love until it pressed a placid smile on his lips. The pieces he most wanted to store away in his mind forever were the content look making your face even more beautiful to him and the sight of his hands held so caringly in your own. He let out a happy sigh as he watched your thumbs trace him once more.
“Sanji?” you called softly.
“Yes, dear?”
“How are you feeling?” He almost laughed at your question.
“I feel wonderful,” he breathed out. You could hear the smile shaping his words and were struck with the bare emotion in his statement. He sounded just like he said.
“Perfect. You’ve done beautifully, sweetheart,” you spoke through your own smile. Even with your eyes closed, you could tell he was preening at your praise.
You lightened up your conscious control of your energy flowing around Sanji. It continued on its path with ease, enough that you were able to let the feeling of its circulation sustain itself instead of needing your imagery. The repetition of it over the long time spent meditating helped you to focus in on what your energy feels like. Usually, that was something too abstract for you to be able to call on straight away. It would take hours and hours more in that sensation before your brain could own and control it with ease. For now, you were good enough to latch onto it once it was there long enough so you fully release the envisioned control by blinking your eyes open.
Sanji was already looking at you. He was no longer flushed and fidgety; every roused edge of him had polished out to a serene shine. The smile stuck on his face was delicate, only pulling his lips to curl enough to press into his cheeks and threaten to crinkle his eyes. Those eyes were half-lidded but still glimmering as they looked back at you. You darted your eyes back to his smile, which now exposed a hint of his teeth between his gently parted lips.
“What now, love?” Sanji asked. He was loath to interrupt the moment, but truly needed to know what he was supposed to do now that he had reached the goal of this whole endeavor. Would you just suck the feeling out right away? Would you pull your hands from his? Would you leave him to process this whole thing alone? Leave him to starve for a taste he’d never get again?
You took one last moment to check him over before deciding to be a little self indulgent. Sure, this would help him ease back out to no soul contact more than just sitting there, but it also wasn’t absolutely necessary. You didn’t think he would mind though.
“I think we could both use a lay down and maybe a nap,” you offered, nodding your head to the side to gesture to the head of the sleeping mat. Now his smile split wide enough to scrunch his eyes.
“You’re going to spoil me rotten, love,” he jokingly admonished, already leaning himself in the direction you’d motioned towards. He wasn’t going anywhere fast though; his body felt as heavy and slow and syrupy as his mind did.
Deciding to expose more of your soft spot for him than usual, you respond, “Good. You do enough spoiling to deserve some in return.”
The fondness in your voice let him know that it was true care offered instead of easy flirting. Hearing you send that tone his way had his supporting arm collapse under him, sending him down to his elbow. Were it any other time, he would’ve tried to hide the slip or recover quickly, but it wasn’t any other time and he simply went with it to finish crawling the short distance to the head of the mat. The movement to get to his side was more flopping than laying, but the shift to his back was at least smoother. Those lovely blue eyes fluttered closed and refused to open.
You kept close to him the whole way, smiling and snorting at his lack of grace under the influence of the new and potent headspace brought on by your own energy. Yes, you wanted to be close anyway, but it was functionally to make it easy to keep him within the swirl of your soul. Once he had surrendered to the position his body ended up in, you began adjusting him to make sure he was as comfortable as possible. An arm was saved from its strange angle, his head was raised and placed on a plush pillow, the most luxurious of your blankets was grabbed to place on him. The whole time Sanji was mumbling sweet pet names along with his thanks.
Ever since you had mentioned sleep, Sanji felt it pulling at him. It only got worse when he moved and laid down. He was existing so sweetly in a waking dream, stuck half-lucid in a body that was being tended by your very soul. He thanked whatever lucky stars were up there and shot a “thank you” to whatever past life had earned him this; he didn’t think it could get any better than the bone deep contentment that saturated him.
That was until you laid down next to him and started snuggling into his right side.
The feeling of your warm and soft body shifting into him until you molded perfectly against each other had one more flurry of tingles and skipping heartbeats work through him. Your cheek was nestled against the top of his pec and you were happy to find that the fabric of his dress shirt felt soft against your skin. The arm that laid over him was reached out so that your hand could rest on the shoulder opposite your head. The whispering sound of your skin brushing over the fabric of his pants filled the air as you bent your right leg just enough to nestle in between his. You couldn’t help the deep, contented sigh that left you at the pleasant feeling of his thick thighs cradling one of yours. You had nearly forgotten to pull the blanket up over the two of you with how harshly the drain from concentrating and moving your energy had started to hit you. It didn’t help that Sanji was just as enviously comfortable as he looked.
Sanji drank in every touch you offered with satisfaction and serenity. Every single one seemed to solidify the heaven that wrapped his every sense in comfort and peace. His left hand managed to make its way up and hold the hand you had rested on his shoulder. His right was placed down lovingly on your waist. You mumbled something that could’ve been “sweet dreams” and he mumbled back with just as much clarity.
With your last waking action, you gave him a gentle squeeze then fully relaxed your body into his. Sanji stayed conscious for as long as he could, basking in the feeling of being truly held.

Thoughts on the live action one piece
Spoilers 😉
Yes, I binged all 8 episodes, and have work today and can’t see out my eyes but worth it.
I’ll try to keep it short.
Luffys character was immaculate. The way Inaki portrayed him and brought this man to life was so amazing to see. Oda really saw Luffy in him and he did not disappoint. The moves looked great, CGI was on point for a live action, and they really did break the curse.
Zoro’s character was beautiful. I love that he was more serious, and him throwing up the finger in his first scene?! I’m star struck. You can say what you want about the live action, but theres no denying this cast was perfect for these characters and the fight scenes were choreographed to the point where it looked so clean.
Nami 🥳 The emotion! The conflict! I absolutely love the way she had more action scenes and was more open with her care for the crew early on. Nami has always been my favourite character, and Emily did her justice.
I will be listening to her song on repeat.
Ussop! Ussop! Are you serious! Why do I love you in every reality! And Ussop and Kaya! The kiss! The scream I let out! I died😵💫 I wish he had more shooting scenes, but his true potential wasn’t seen until later in the anime so I can’t complain, cause season two Ussop is gonna pop off.
Sanji😳 First off, live action Sanji has a hold on me😮💨 Like what happened to the guy who couldn’t get any girls. Ngl, was keeping an eye out for the blonde at table 8, looking out for my competition👀 His kicks were so smooth and all, and I mean ALL, his fight scenes were perfect. Like how did they do this. You can see the care and effort he put into his character.
Buggy? I love our unhinged clown. His making a circus with trapped towns people. His CGI? Amazing. The little goof we were left with when they trapped his parts in the chest made me cackle!
The pacing of the show was done so well. I was worried that 8 episodes wouldn’t be enough (and I was right where’s season two I want Vivi), but the retelling was more then I hoped for. I will always love the anime more, as most of us know there’s not enough episodes in the series, but the live action did great in that respect. I did miss some of the characters they had to cut to make it flow better though. The ussop pirates live on in our hearts
Don’t get me wrong, there was some scenes I missed from the original show, like Zoro lifting Luffy’s cage, Nami burning her hands on Buggys cannon fuse, Nami stabbing Ussop. BUT, they wouldn’t have fit in this version of the show.
They did give us Zoro lifting the safe like he did Luffys cage which was cool. And Nami holding Ussops hand when Zoro was fighting, Nami showing up for the fight rather then leaving. I love her. Even though Nami didn’t get to show her care through the actions of saving Zoro or stabbing her own hand, she was still able to show those emtions through different actions. The hand holding with Ussop rather then the stabbing of her hand was so good to see. This version of Nami seemed more fragile in a way, so this suited her version well.
It was like watching One Piece for the first time all over again. I didn’t know what would happen. Getting more marines, and Garps relationship to Luffy being revealed so early in the series to cause tension within the crew *chef’s kiss* And Koby? ‘Be a good pirate.��? Like I love you? Not doing what Garp asked? Standing up for his beliefs? You are going to be a good Marine. You’ll be the greatest 💕
The relationships they explored?
First off Ussop and Kaya 😵 I love them so much. Them talking to the straw hats about their relationship was so cute, and Zoro saying it wasn’t his area of expertise 💅🏻✨ Jokes 👀
Nami being besties with Kaya😍 Her telling Kaya not to let someone tell her how to run her life, drawing connections to her own situation, telling Kaya not to be trapped. Her returning the treasure! I loved it so much. Ussop’s and Nami’s friendship has always been the one I cherished in the crew, and for Nami to support Kaya, and Ussop to see how Nami was good to his girl I feel will only strengthen their relationship.
Nami and Zoro besties? Didn’t know I could love them more.
Nami caring so much for Zoro after his fight with Mihawk showed her love for her new friends, and mirrored her care she had in the original series where she saved him from drowning at Arlong park. Even though we didn’t get the original scenes, they were supplemented with new scenes that held the same feelings.
Zosan- I mean Zoro and Sanji. The wings of the pirate king? I love their bickering in any universe it seems. The fish men fight was so good, them being unbothered with the guys trying to kill them as they fought with each other was so them. And Zoro licking his plate clean and saying Sanji’s food was okay? Not bad for a waiter huh?
And the most important pair. Captain and his first mate. I just loved how many times they reiterated that Zoro is Luffys right hand man 🥰 Luffy not stepping in the way of Zoros dream was beautiful, and his care afterwards reminded me of how he cared for Nami when she got sick in the original series. Asking Sanji to cook his favourite? So cute. He couldn’t decide if it was best for Zoro to eat or sleep or drink and him stressing for Zoro. All amazing. I’ve used amazing so many times but its just the word I need to explain it. Zoro waking up, Luffy engulfing him. I could go on and on.
Nami and Luffy? The amount of love I have for them. They were everything I wanted from them. The scene. THE scene. Beautiful.
I could go on and on about this show, but sadly I have work. Please show this version love, and don’t go into expecting the same series. It is different. It’s its own version and deserves its own category.
I love the cast! Thank you for making history with this adaptation! Xx

Tracing Circles



Arthurtv x gender neutral reader / new relationship fluff
Summary: The intimacy of a shared morning, waking up next to Arthurtv
To the: masterlist
Song inspiration: 'Beautiful' by HIM
Weekend mornings are built different. It’s nine-ish, I'm half-awake, the bed is a mess, and there is a shirt hanging off the lampshade. Your light blue sweater is lying on the floor, my shoes are on top. Last night was chaos, but in the best way.
I am waiting for you to climb back into bed after your bathroom break. Right before you got up, I kissed your temple and whispered "morning," still feeling the warmth of the night around us. My lips brushed against you. I was tempted to nibble on you, Mr. Frederick. I know you would have let me.
You slip back into bed and wrap yourself around me, keeping me close. Your legs are twisted up with mine. My chin is resting on your head and I gently brush my fingers through your beard. It’s got that sandpaper feel, but I wouldn’t change it. "I can't picture myself without a beard anymore," you say when you feel my touch.
That sleepy smile of yours and those eyes—they’re enough to make me want to bless your parents. I follow your eyes until you close them. Not gonna lie, Arthur, I’ve fallen so hard for you.
I wish we’d just spill it all and say how we really feel, but we’re not there yet. The way you touch me tells me everything, you love me. From our playful kisses to our intimacy last night, there’s just too much going on inside me to keep quiet about for much longer. Sometimes I feel that we are at that moment, but then we're not.
It’s the quirky stuff about you that totally wins me over. You’ve got a way of slipping animals into our chats. "You're like a butterfly," you told me earlier this week, "because they're animals that only land where they feel safe." I adored that. When I asked why you’re so into animals, you told me it’s just how you’ve always been. They stick in your heart, and you can’t let them go.
No one’s making a documentary about me, but if you wanted to study me like you study animals, I’d be totally fine with it. I know you’d find things to talk about with your friends—bits about me.
I move to your neck and take in your natural scent. I let my mouth rest on your olive skin to softly suck it in. Mmmmmm. I hear you sigh. My heaven. Moving up slowly, tasting you. Teasing you. Your body stretches under my touch. "Don't stop," you beg me. That's when I stop, just to look into your eyes, and I continue.
Sometimes I wonder if things are too good to be true. But then I remind myself how lucky I am. Look at me now: I am warm, I am comfortable, and I've got quiet time to think about us while we are trying to wake up properly.
"Let me go under the cover and kiss your belly," I whisper. My lips right there, taking in your warm skin. I hear you chuckle when I kiss over your belly button. Okay one more time. You hold your hand on the back of my head. I feel safe. "It feels funny," you say and we both chuckle.
You've locked your hand in mine. Our palms touch. I feel how you bring our hands to your lips, and you give me little kisses over my knuckles and then our lips meet. You kiss gentle yet determined and every now and then a little moan escapes. I listen to your breath as you kiss me. The way it quickens. You trace circles on my back.
A couple of months ago, you asked me out and I felt like I was on cloud nine. You’ve been showing up where I work, and honestly, I never thought I'd be interesting enough for you to notice me. But you proved me wrong, and from the time you got my number to our first kiss, I could feel everything change. By now I've have appeared in a video with your friends. They made me feel at ease, even though they're a teasing bunch. Especially George. Now, I love those quiet moments with just the two of us.
The candles from last night are still there on each side of the bed. We put towels over sheets that should be washed. We felt that everything could wait until the next morning as we just wanted to be close. My hand goes to your dark curls, and I stroke you over your forehead to the back of your head. It is so soft. I can mess your hair up and somehow it still looks the same. You're so beautiful, Arthur.
We wrap ourselves in cosy little cocoons that are so hard to leave, just soaking up the warmth. I don't want this moment to change into one where you are not in my arms.
"I think we soon get up, butterfly?" you ask. I shake my head. No.
----------
If you enjoyed reading, let me know. It will encourage me to write more. ❤️

Our Song IIII
M.sturniolo



Summery: when you start to fall asleep on the triplet couch and Matt takes notice
THIS IS MY WORK AND MY IDEA! PLEASE DONT USE THIS AS “INSPIRATION” OR TAKE IT WITHOUT GETTING MY PERMISSION FIRST! thank you :)
MATTS POV
As me and Y/N walk down the stairs to the main floor of the hotel I can't help but feel small butterflies in my stomach. The way she looked around the hotel room that I paid for, made my heart swell as I realized that she truly was just as great of a person in real life as she was online.
“Should’ve just made you take the stairs,” I can hear Y/N huff from beside me. “My legs hurt already,” She says with a small pout as we reach the last flight of stairs.
“We’re almost there,” A small chuckle escapes with my words as we round the last corner in the stairwell.
Once we are on the road and back to my house I feel Y/N taking small glances in my direction, making me flush a little as we turn off of the main road. The drive from the hotel back to our house was short and didn’t take more than fifteen minutes to get from one place to another.
As I pulled into the garage I noticed how tired Y/N looked and the small yawn that escaped her lips as she unbuckled the seatbelt from her body.
Y/N POV
Once we are all in the triplets house we are talking, a soda in Chris’s hands, getting to know each other better. On a more personal level one would say. Matt sat next to you on the couch, while Nick and Chris sat down at the other end.
As the conversation flows through the group, small yawns fall from your lips, the travel getting to you. You can feel your eyes growing heavy, your body feeling like it can’t move. You slowly stop talking, yawn after yawn leaving your lips as your eyes start to shut.
“Y/N, wanna go lay down in my room?” You hear Matt’s voice, it’s soft and warm. “My beds’ more comfortable than the couch.”
You can practically feel your eyes light up at his suggestion, a warm comfy bed after a long day of travel, sign me up. You nod your head tiredly, scooting to the end of the couch. Matt stands from the couch, holding his hand out for you. You take his hand with a small smile and follow him down the hallway and into the first door on the left.
You look around his room finding small items that match his personality. Some stuffed animals, a gravity falls poster hanging on the wall, and the famous Mr.wrinleton sitting perfectly in the middle of his bed. You let out a soft hum before taking a few more steps in behind him.
“Just make yourself at home, I just washed the sheets a few days ago..” Matt speaks softly. Watching as you kick your shoes off and climb into his bed, his side of the bed. A small smile forms on his lips as you sleepily grab a hold of Mr.wrinleton and mumble out a quiet ‘thank you’ before nodding back off to sleep.
MATTS POV
I shut the door quietly after I watch y/n drift to sleep, making my way down the hallway and back into the living room.
When I enter the living room I'm met with a grinning Nick and a giggling Chris. “What?” I ask.
“My beds’ more comfortable…” Nick repeats what I said about five minutes ago. “What, is that your way of flirting with her or something?”
“Yeah, I mean dude you’ve been making ‘fuck me eyes’ at her the whole time she’s been here… I'm surprised you even came back out of your room.” Chris adds on to Nick's question.
I scoff lightly at their interrogations, even though they are completely right. I did just want you to be comfortable, but I wanted you to be sleeping in my bed just a little more.
“How is that flirting? I was just being nice to our guest.” My voice squeaks as I try to lie to my brothers. I let out a sigh, knowing my voice cracking gave me away.
“You are trying to flirt!” Chris says rather loudly. I start to shush him, not only to not give me away, but to not wake you up. Chris lets out a few quiet giggles as he sits back on the couch, leaving me standing in front of him and nick.
“Listen, I don’t wanna make her uncomfortable if she doesn’t like me back.. so please don’t say anything and let me handle it.” I tell them, not wanting them to tell you before I can even get a chance to see if you could potentially feel the same way.
An: so sorry I’ve been MIA recently😬 hopefully getting back into it very soon, im finally in a good place in life and have been working on finding a good schedule and all that good stuff… anyways i hope you enjoyed this short but sweet chapter!!

For Danny Ric! I'm so exited! Fluff 1, Promt 8. I think a debate over the music playing on the car radio would be great. I love Danny's roadtrip vibes.
Road Trip | D. Ricciardo

You're on a road trip with Daniel, cruising down a scenic highway with the windows rolled down, the wind tousling your hair. Daniel's driving, one hand on the wheel and the other resting on your thigh. The sky is a perfect blue, dotted with fluffy white clouds, and the road ahead is open and inviting. The landscape rushes by in a blur of greens and browns as he drives a little over the speed limit, the hum of the wind providing a soothing background noise.
"Okay, music," you declare, reaching for your phone.
Daniel raises an eyebrow, a playful smirk tugging at his lips. "Wait a second, I'm the one driving. Driver gets to choose music right?"
You chuckle, shaking your head. "I know you're used to driving alone, but the unwritten rule of road trips is passenger has the aux control."
"Oh really?" he challenges, glancing at you with mock seriousness. "I think the driver needs the tunes to stay focused."
"Yeah, well, the passenger needs to keep the driver entertained," you retort, connecting your phone to the aux.
Daniel lets out a dramatic sigh, rolling his eyes in exaggerated exasperation. "I'm the one doing all the work here, steering us safely to our destination. That means I should choose the songs too."
You cross your arms, feigning stubbornness. "That makes no sense, Danny. I'm the one keeping you company, making sure you don't fall asleep at the wheel."
He scoffs, "with your choice of songs, I will definitely fall asleep at the wheel."
You gasp, holding your phone close to your chest. "I could say the same about your taste. You listen to country music."
"Don't disrespect good ol' tunes, darling. You just want to play that one song on repeat," he stated, glancing at you and flashing a grin.
"It's a great song!" you insist, mirroring his grin.
"Great for making me doze off," he teases, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "Come on, you know my playlist is solid. It's got everything we need for a perfect road trip," he adds, slightly squeezing your thigh.
You become too aware of his hand resting on your thigh, and in the heat of your debate, you move it away, earning a frown from him.
"Sure, if we want to turn this into a country-western saga," you retorted, unable to suppress a smile. "Besides, variety is necessary. We can't be stuck listening to the same kind of songs for hours."
Daniel laughs, his hand finding his way back on your thigh as he gives in. "Fine, fine, let's settle this. Name a song that's a must for any road trip."
You both throw out suggestions, each defending your choices with increasing passion. The debate grows more animated as you argue over the best songs to keep you both entertained and awake. Daniel insists on the classics he loves, especially since it's a countryside road trip, while you disagreed, encouraging other artists. Back and forth you banter, poking fun at the other's taste in music, even though it wasn't a serious issue.
Finally, you realize how absurd the argument is and burst out laughing simultaneously.
"This is ridiculous," you manage to say between giggles. "We're debating over who plays the songs."
"Exactly," Daniel agrees, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye that slipped out while laughing. "We're wasting time when we could've been enjoying some good music."
"Alright, how about we compromise?" you suggest, still chuckling. "We alternate between our songs."
"Deal," he agrees, extending a hand for a shake while steering with the other.
You clasp his hand, nodding formally as you seal the agreement. Daniel takes the first pick, choosing a song he enjoys. As the familiar beats fill the car, you cover your ears playfully, but the smile on your face tells him it's all in jest. You both sing along, creating your own little concert on wheels.
When the song ends, you take your turn, choosing a track that's currently your favourite. Daniel groans, having heard the song too many times to count, but he can't resist singing along with you. The rest of the drive is filled with a perfect mix of your favorite songs. Even though you both complain every time the other picks a song, you still sing along to each one, enjoying every moment.

CHAPTER 1
summary: In which a spilt drink leads to a very awkward reunion and a drunken piece of pizza. WC: 6.3k ゚ ⋆ ゚ ☂︎ ⋆ ゚
The surface of the bar is tacky under your forearms from spilled beer and mixed drinks. You lean up against the surface as others bump into your back, half listening to Aaron's non-stop rambling about the job his uncle set him up at. His company was fine- one of Flash's basketball buddies from high school remembered for being obnoxious in your junior english class. You're barely paying attention and more preoccupied with trying to get the bartender's attention. At least then you would be able to escape the sweaty bodies pressed against your back.
Lazy Dog Saloon, a divey place nestled in Hell's Kitchen, had become Midtown high. Most of the class of 2014 had graduated from their prospective 4 year undergrad programs last week. Some returned to New York for a mini vacation before they began the next chapter in their lives while some had never left at all.
You were part of the second group.
NYU seemed like a safe choice at the time your college applications were due. The program you wanted was there and you knew that it was close enough to Queens that you felt like you'd gotten away, but not far enough that you felt like you were on the other side of the country.
Aaron continues to drone on, the sound of his voice fading with the sound of the eighties song playing over the speakers. Your shoulders sag in relief when the bartender sits down your vodka soda in front of you, sticking a dried out lime on the rim. He takes the $8 in cash you hold out to him and mumble out a thanks but he is already moving to the next person. Not that you care. You had your prize in hand and could finally return to your friends drunkenly lounging in their booth.
That was until Aarons animated hand gestures sent your drink out of your hand down the front of the shirt of the guy beside you.
"Fuck! I am so sorry," you rush out, half turning to reach over Aaron and grab a few flimsy paper napkins. You also shoot Aaron the dirtiest look you can muster at which he grimaces. "I feel horrible- god. I am so-"
Had there not been a steady stream of booze fluttering through your veins, you could play it a lot cooler than you do. Thankfully, Peter Parker isn’t able to play it much cooler either. The second your eyes met his big brown ones, they manage to somehow get bigger, his eyebrows rising towards his hairline before his lips thinned in distaste.
“... sorry…” The word comes out as a breath while his presence seems to be the only thing that you can be aware of. It’s like the sight of him is screaming inside your head.
Peter’s heart throws itself for a loop before dropping down into his stomach. He knows that voice all too well and he hates how much he still yearns to hear it again.
We both seemed to collect ourselves at the same time; he clears his throat while you look down at the spot on his shirt where the gray fabric is dark. With a shake of his head, he waives away your apology with his hand. “Don't- it’s fine, it’s fine.” He tries to mutter the words with a smile that barely classifies as anything more than a wince. “I don’t even like this shirt anyway.”
You can’t seem to get yourself to move. Not even when he gently slips the napkins out of your clenched fists so he can try and clean himself up. That, in turn, just makes you feel worse, but then again, maybe he just doesn’t want you to touch him.
Not after our six years of friendship fizzled out like a burning candle that finally reached the end of its wick.
“Nice one,” Aaron chuckles near your ear, his elbow nudging your arm teasingly. This was not the time for jokes. Not when it felt like I was staring at a ghost. The ghost of someone very much alive. Giving the red head a shove and a scowl, you hiss at him under your breath to shut up before turning back to Peter.
“I am so sorry. Seriously. This was all my fault. I… can I help?” You're clearly apologetic. It’s clear from the concern in your voice and the embarrassed look on your face.
Peter’s eyes find the ceiling so quickly that you can’t tell if the pink on his face is real or just a hallucination from the tequila shot Flash had forced on you earlier. You could’ve sworn you’d forgotten what he sounded like over the past four years. After hearing it again, your memories come flooding back all at once. Except this isn’t a memory. This is real. Peter Parker is standing right there as he wipes at his shirt. Gone is the gangly kid with perpetual untamable hair and skinned elbows from nose diving off his skateboard and in his place is someone he gracefully grew into.
“Seriously. It’s fine. It was an accident.” His hand waves awkwardly again as he drops the napkins into the trash. The smile he gives you is strained and brief but he tries anyway so he can drop the conversation. “No, it’s really alright. I think those did the trick. This shirt has gone through worse.”
You are sure you look as pathetic as you feel. Eyes wide and brow furrowed enough that the crease between them could’ve been a damn canyon. Once upon a time, you knew him better than you knew yourself. Once upon a time, the two of you could have stayed quiet for hours and still known exactly what the other was thinking.
Now? At least you knew that him saying it was fine was a load of garbage.
“Are you sure? I can ask the bartender for a towel? Or-”
He knows that look. It was the same damn look you always used to give him when you felt really bad about something. It would settle on your face when you were going to do any stupid thing you could to try and fix it.
“I’m sure,” he interjects in the hopes that you believe him- or at least pretend to. That you will just let it go, return back to Katie and Flash so you can tell them you dumped your drink on him. The three of you could laugh it up like you did in high school.
“It’s fine. I promise. Just…” he takes a deep breath and glances down at his wet shirt before finally glancing up at your face. He tries to think of something to say. At that moment, the bartender decides to drop the beer he had ordered earlier onto the counter. Peter mutters a thanks, grabbing it in one hand while digging for cash that's shoved in his front pocket to exchange it.
Before you can get another word out, he sighs, “Really. It’s fine. I can deal with it.” Peter's words are short and almost sharp. It was nothing different than how things had been between the two of you for the past eight years.
You open your mouth to protest but he is already slipping through the crowd. Drunk patrons fill the empty space within seconds so they can raise their blood alcohol content. Aaron tries to laugh it off, clapping you on the shoulder while you’re too busy staring at the back of Peter’s head disappearing around the corner.
There are two roads or whatever bullshit.
You blame it on the booze. The white claw you had sipped when you and Katie had gotten ready was the reason that you’d shrugged off Aarons hand. The extremely potent and barely drinkable margarita Flash made you at the pregame was the reason you started to slip through the crowd after him. The reason you burst through the doors of the boys bathroom without a second thought was- okay, so maybe it was also just who you were.
“Please. Let me do something to fix this,” you urge, ignoring the strange look from the man slipping around you to exit the bathroom. You also ignore the shocked look Peter gives your reflection of the dirty mirror in front of him.
“Nuh uh. No.” He practically gasps, spinning around and yanking out paper towels to hurriedly dry his hands. He has to get you out of here before you get yourself thrown out of the freaking bar.
You shoot him a look. You will stay in this bathroom all night if that was what it took… to fix… his shirt.
“Grow up Parker, it’s a boy’s bathroom. There are stalls. I’m not even crawling under one!” Your hands move as you speak while his hands find your shoulders. His touch is gentle but his face is panicked. You don’t stop him from spinning you around, guiding you out the door even when you turn your head back so you can face him.
“Look. I just want to make sure I didn’t ruin your night because I feel like a total asshole. It was an accident and now I feel your night is ruined because you're all damp and smelling like vodka.” Peter focuses on maneuvering you through the crowd. He doesn’t have the heart (or the guts) to admit that his shirt being soaked with vodka is the least of his concerns. It is *how* it got soaked in the first place. That was the real issue.
No. The real issue was you. Your presence. The fact he had to touch you right now as he manages to avoid letting anyone collide with you since you are too focused on rambling.
“Okay, you didn’t ruin my night.” The words are practically a groan of exasperation in the hopes you will just drop this. That you will just return to your cool friends and you could all go and laugh at how uncool he is.
“No?” You ask flatly, your eyebrow rising in skepticism as you try to twist around to look at him better over your shoulder. He is more concerned with keeping any drunk people from slamming into me or vice versa. “Because I feel like I did. I feel like I definitely ruined your night and you’re just telling me that I didn’t, just so I drop it and I don't let it eat away at my brain for the rest of my life.”
Because it will. I will certainly lose sleep over it.
Peter can feel his heart race as he listens to you. He has to bite his tongue to keep himself from screaming that you’d ruined his life, not his night.
”Just-“ he grumbles, rolling his eyes as he guides you around another group of drunks dancing against the wall. Never has he been more thankful for the fabric of your dress to keep his skin from yours. Even with the buffer, he feels like he is burning alive. He wishes he didn’t care that you were upset at the prospect of him being upset.
Afterall, you probably haven’t spared him a second though since high school graduation.
Not in the way he has thought about you.
Even though it’s mid-May, the nights lack the warmth that the days hold. The cool air feels good on your flushed cheeks. The alley is quiet, tucked between the bar and a closed up nail salon seated next door and the space is filled with the muffled hum of liquor filled banter.
You manage to twist around and plant yourself in front of him. He drops his hold on you but meets your wide and earnest eyes.
“Peter, all I’m saying is that I want to make it better. Yeah, I know,” you throw up your hands, letting their movements animate your words. “Yes, I’m aware that vodka sodas are only moderately pungent. And -yes. It wasn’t even that much- but still! I feel bad. Really bad. There has to be something I can do to make it right.”
Peter can feel his heart picking up again, his brain desperately trying to comprehend that after all these years - after *six years*, you were in front of him, telling him that you feel bad?
He can’t help but shake his head before quickly interjecting. “You don’t-” with a huff, he presses his palms against his face, like it will give him a moment to try and think clearly. They move up to his hair, shoving it off his forehead as he finally forces himself to actually look down at you. His voice is low and tired. “You don’t have to do anything about it. I promise. It was an accident, alright? Besides, I don’t even like that shirt that much.”
That’s a lie. It is his favorite shirt.
No one says anything for a long moment. You’re too busy studying his face for what is actually going on inside his head. He is too busy trying to force himself not to look away. Too many things hang in the foot of space between your bodies. You either can’t find, or can’t find the courage to pluck something out of the air and say something of substance.
Something that matters.
So your face softens and you opt for the cowards approach.
“You okay?”
A muscle in his jaw tenses which makes his expression look more grim. “I’m fine,” he grumbles, looking away to stare at a broken bottle, not wanting to hold your gaze anymore. He’d spent the past eight years pretending that the you-sized hole in his life had been filled with things like Spider-Man, The Bugle and his Bio-Physics degree he’d obtained last week. But now that you’re standing right here, it felt like it was somehow bigger.
Just like that, you realize that, even if he had been the one to guide the two of you out here, away from prying eyes and drunk chatter, it was your doing. You might well have been the one to drag him out the door by his hair. Your face falls when you realize he likely did it because he doesn’t think you’d want to be seen talking to him in public.
You frown at the floor and wrap your arms around yourself like you’re just trying to keep out the cool air.
“Sorry,” you murmur. It’s the best thing you can think to say. Peter looks at you, peeking up and taking notice of the little movements and gestures you make to try and smooth over the awkwardness. It reminds him of high school. Back in the middle of freshman year when you started on the edge of the circle of cheerleaders, working up the courage to belong before you eventually found yourself in the center senior year.
“It’s fine,” he says halfheartedly. In reality, it’s not fine, far from it, but… His hands curl and uncurl into fists at his side, trying to suppress the urge to reach for you.
“No, it's not.”
You’re not talking about the spilled drink anymore. You’re not even talking about the dissipation of your friendship at the start of high school. In some way, it all comes down to high school graduation four years ago.
There's a clarity to the loud sounds inside the bar as someone slips out the back door, too preoccupied with trying to light a cigarette as they head towards the street. When the door shuts again, it feels even quieter out here. Peter and you don’t say anything as they pass by and out of sight.
But neither of you return inside either.
“I shouldn’t have done that. That was…” you trail off, eyes finding the sky under pinched brows as you think. “Invasive? Presumptuous? Meddlesome?” A strained laugh falls from your mouth and cuts through the quiet. “Sorry. Vodka seriously inhibits my memory of vocabulary words.”
You don’t expect him to laugh. So when he lets out a snort and shakes his head, you find the courage to actually look at him from the corner of your eye. He’s not smiling but the little quirk of his lip might as well be a shit eating grin with how relieved it makes you feel.
“You’re drunk.” It is neither a question or statement, or both. You can't really tell.
Your nose scrunches up in thought before you settle on, “I would go with tipsy.” The toe of your shoe scuffs against the pavement and he shoves his hands in his front pockets. “I’m not sure how that’s legally determined or if there even is a way to legally determine that but…yeah. Sure. Let's go with tipsy.”
“You’re wasted,” he snorts again, only this time it sounds even more like a laugh than before.
Your mouth drops in mock offense, eyes pulling back towards his own. Something on his face catches in the light and he looks like he could almost glow in the dark but he’s forcing it down.
“Drunk is a strong word. More like… very tipsy.”
“I think we can go with sloshed instead.” Peter raises an eyebrow, his mouth curling upwards with amusement.
The roll of your eyes is dramatic and playful. Before you get the chance to shoot back, a vibrating and painful sound of an alarm from your purse interrupts you. He almost wonders if it’s a phone call, but when you retrieve it, press the screen and check the time, it’s almost relieving. Not that it didn’t interrupt the moment anyway.
“Shit,” you frown before sticking your phone back. “I really gotta get out of here. I told myself I’d be home by 1:30 since I’m meeting my parent’s for brunch.”
You’re leaving? It’s the first thought that crosses his mind and it has him on edge. For the first time in years, the two of you are alone together. Just the two of you, hidden away in an alley and having an actual conversation.
And it’s already over.
“You’re taking the train back now,” he asks with slight concern. His fingers fall from his hair so he can rub at his forehead. You were a New Yorker. Everyone took the subway. You were just a New Yorker that was determined to take the subway alone at 1 am on a Saturday while drunk in a short dress.
A skeptical smile tugs at your mouth. His concern isn’t shocking. He’d always been like that. Cautious and worried about the safety of others. It was why he always got his ass kicked in high school.
It just wasn’t something you experienced in a long time.
“Umm… Yeah?” Shrugging, you retrieve your phone from your purse to shoot off a text to Katie and Flash that you’re heading home. Peter opens his mouth to say something before thinking better of it. It wasn’t that he didn’t think you could handle yourself. The last thing he needed was to piss you off in this one moment of a truce.
“My apartment’s not that far anyway,” you continue as a little thumbs up appears by your text in the group chat. The phone returns to your bag amongst your wallet and lip gloss. He is already looking at you when you lift your head up to look at him.
For a moment, he kind of looks like he is 11 years old again. Like you half expect him to smile and reveal his canine tooth is still growing in. That he’ll give you the same grin through the glass of your bedroom window when the two of you were long supposed to be asleep. How he would invite you to crawl out and to accompany him to the subway because he liked it when you watched him try and skateboard in an empty train. At first, you would always hiss out ‘no’s’ which would only make him whine your name from his spot on the windowsill. Eventually, you’d relent because you always did. Then you would spend breakfast with your parents exhausted and biting down on a smile from sitting on the secret events from the night before.
“Wait, you’re taking the subway alone?” he asks, his eyebrows furrowing even more than they already were before shooting upwards. He steps closer but doesn’t actually invade your space.
Alone, intoxicated, and all the way home… in a short dress…
Your own eyebrows raise in challenge. Even if you try not to look defensive, you can't help the way your arms fold over your chest and you settle back on your hip. You’ve lived in New York as long as he has, which is your entire life.
You could easily take the subway alone. It was something you’d done a million times and you were sure he had done it as much too.
A little bit of alcohol wasn’t enough to stop you and force you to waste money on a cab.
“Yeah…”
“Okay,” he sighs and you relax, both of your shoulders sagging in relief for different reasons. “I’m making sure you get home.” The words slip out and he doesn’t even think to hold them back.
You open your mouth to argue, but he continues speaking, his hands raising in surrender. “I’m sure you do it all the time but, I mean… I just…you’re drunk.”
“Not drunk. Very tipsy,” you mutter under your breath but there's no hint of actually putting up a fight. Considering your options, you look up towards the night sky like you’ll find some sort of argument hidden up amongst the stars. There are no stars. Just heavy looking clouds that hang above Manhattan with the umpteenth threat of rain this week. You don’t find one. Making a face, you know he has a point.
Odds were, you would probably be fine walking the few blocks to the subway and taking it a couple of stops towards your apartment. There was always that chance that you wouldn’t be.
The problem was that your apartment was out of the way. How did you know that? Peter lived with Ned. Ned Leeds, the same Ned Leeds that had been following Katie around from the age of five until now like a love sick puppy that rambled horribly in her presence about every detail of his life. So yes, the fact he and Peter were roommates had come up plenty of times when you and your current roommate bumped into Ned. Just like he had, in excruciating detail, explained exactly where he lived in case Katie ever happened to be in the area.
“You’re just going to tag along all the way to East village… at one in the morning… and then… trek all the way back to your place?” You shake your head. “I can’t ask you to do that.”
“You aren’t asking. I’m offering.”
The prospect of your safety overrides any arguments he could possibly make.
If he stays here and something happens to you, he wouldn’t be able to live with himself.
A guilty expression flashes in his eyes at the thought, that little *what if.* It had been replaying in his head since he got bit by that spider when he was sixteen. How the thought of where you were and what you were doing flashed through his mind anytime there was a large-scale disaster threatening New York. There were a few times it got so bad, he’d had to swing by your apartment- not in a stalker way! Just so he could know you were fine.
Besides, he only knew because your mom told Aunt May, who then mentioned it to him.
When you don’t say anything, he nods towards the mouth of the alley. “Come on.” He’s already walking towards the street, spinning on his heels and walking backwards. “It’s fine. I’ll take a cab home or something quicker than the subway.”
Something quicker than the subway and isn’t a cab? All you can do is snort as you scramble to catch up beside him. Now you just feel worse as you step onto the sidewalk. Not only does he probably resent you for the end of our friendship eight years ago and the… incident four years ago on the night of graduation, now he has to go out of his way so I don’t get murdered walking home.
“Really Pete,” you urge. The nickname falls from your lips like second nature. “It’s okay. I’m good.”
He shakes his head and turns to raise an eyebrow at your statement. You’re not good. Even if you're not stumbling black out drunk, the pink flush on your cheeks and the wide eyes are dead giveaways of your impairment. As much as he wants to hold your hand, to throw an arm over your shoulders like when the both of you were kids, he doesn’t. But he does let his hand hover behind the small of your back as you manage to find the same pace.
“I’d rather not be worried the rest of the weekend. Think of it as satiating my restless mind,” he jokes, giving you a playful look.
It’s much quieter out here and there is space to take a breath. There’s still people mulling around as they make their way home or to the next stop of their Saturday night. No one pays the two of you much attention as your pace slows to a more leisurely one.
“First of all, not drunk. Very tipsy,” you huff. “And second of all…” Peter stretches his arms behind his head while you try to think of a good point aside from the fact that you feel bad.
For a lot of things.
“You’ll be walking alone too at three in the morning!”
“And I can handle that. I’m a big boy, remember?”
There it is. That stupid lopsided grin he’d always shoot you anytime he knew he was wearing you down. When he knew you had already given in but were hoping he would drop it before you caved. You make a face that screams ‘spare me’ and scoff. The dirty look quickly threatens to be a smile and he knows you’re all in now.
“We’ll take the train, I’ll walk you home. We can even grab a slice of pizza. My treat. For old times sake?” With a shake of your head, the sigh you make is answer enough. Your answer is a yes. Just like it always was.
Okay, and maybe it's more than fine and doesn’t feel like that much of a chore.
He takes the opportunity to grab your hand so he can drag you along. The action is like muscle memory and he doesn’t realize he is doing it until you falter. You note that his hands are rougher but that makes sense considering he’s 23 years old and no longer a 14 year old kid. It’s not like you have to admit out loud that you like it. That you’d missed it. So before he can really realize what he’s doing, you commit to it.
“Only if we can take it on the road,” you say pointedly with a look to match. “I meant what I said earlier. I really need to get home so I don’t oversleep and miss brunch. My parent’s will kill me.”
Giving you a tug forward, he snorts, “Then by all means. Let's go.”
The foot traffic around is nothing like a work week morning. No hustling of business men in suits or bustling women in sharp blazers clicking down the sidewalk. The night holds its own excitement now that the weather is survivable without an actual coat and gloves. Summer is approaching and it seems to stir people out of their homes and out later than usual.
Aside from the copious amounts of rain plaguing the past week.
It was nice. Your hands are clasped together so you can keep up and he can make sure he doesn't lose you. At least that’s what the both of you tell yourselves as you settle into the familiar warmth of each other's palms and the sense of comfort they still bring after eight years.
The last time you two had touched was four years ago.
Back when his hands had found themselves tangled in your hair so he could tilt your head back further and-
“How about my treat,” you offer, leaning your head forward to look at the side of his face since he’s a step ahead of you. “Because I’m the one ruining your night.”
Peter just shakes his head and shrugs in hopes to dissolve some of your concern. “Don’t worry about it. My night isn’t ruined. You’re worth it.”
Those words make you stumble, tripping over your own feet like the world was just thrown out of orbit and he doesn’t seem to notice. It’s the last thing you expect him to say. For a moment, you wonder if maybe you were so drunk that you were hallucinating.
But no. He said it.
Your silence makes him squeeze his eyes shut and hold in a curse. It was a stupid thing to say after eight years of distance. Right after grabbing your freaking hand like things were all fine and dandy between you. If he could take it back, he would. Instead, he manages to remain looking unbothered so you wont realize that even just your silence was enough to feel like a punch to the gut.
“As long as you’re sure,” you chuckle lamely, looking down to smooth your dress as you reel in your emotions and stand a little straighter; make your movements as sure as yourself as you can pretend to be. Because the truth is, walking with him, having him tug you along and being in his presence is enough to make you sure of absolutely nothing.
Not when you thought he would still hate you for making more friends at the start of high school. Back when you joined cheerleading on a whim and your classmates started to actually see you. Your classmates actually waved at you when you walked through the halls. They would sit by you in class and turn in their seats so you were included in the conversation. Friday nights were spent at football games before the whispers of an after party in the quarterbacks basement were no longer whispers and became actual invitations.
When you didn’t eat, sleep, and breathe Peter Parker like you had as a child. It wasn’t like you had woken up one day and gotten sick of him. You just slowly realized that maybe you could have more than just one person at your side.
“I am so sure,” he reassures, dropping your hold and slowing to a stop in front of a late night pizza shop. “I’m pretty sure I owe you money for something I broke when we were in elementary school. So yeah, I’m sure.” This time when he smiles bashfully back at you, you mirror him. Somehow that makes some of the tenseness traveling between your connected arms start to resolve.
“I am so sure,” he reassures, dropping your hold and slowing to a stop in front of a late night pizza shop. “I’m pretty sure I owe you money for something I broke when we were in elementary school. So yeah, I’m sure.” This time when he smiles bashfully back at you, you mirror him. Somehow that makes some of the tenseness traveling between your connected arms start to resolve.
Peter has spent the last eight years wondering what he did wrong.
Did you just get bored? Were the stories he was telling you just not enough? Did you grow tired of him dragging you into trouble? Was the feel of being seen by the rest of the world more gratifying than his eyes alone?
So many questions without answers.
For eight years they had plagued his mind, kept him up at night and eating at the back of his brain during the day.
The two of you chat in line which is a solid eight drunk people deep. Drunk conversation and the sound of the workers drowns out how easy it is to fall back into joking around. There are stalls in the conversation where neither of you have an immediate response but the recovery is quick enough that there's no suffocating awkward silence.
And it is then that you realize that being in his presence makes you miss him more than you had during the eight years of radio silence. From the way he rocks back and forth on his feet while making sure you order your slice first, you miss him. When you try to pay, he smoothly snatches your wallet out of your hands, not even missing a beat in his conversation with the teenager at the register as he hands him cash.
Once you both receive pizza slices bigger than your heads, grease seeping through the paper plates as you take the long way to the subway entrance.
You happily take a big bite, speaking around a mouthful of dough, cheese, and tomato. “I mean it. You were always horrible at saving money when we were kids.”
He scoffs and rolls his eyes which just makes it harder to chew around the smile straining your lips. There’s really no rush as you walk side by side without paying attention to where you're going. Eventually an entrance to the subway will appear.
“Oh, I’m sorry, what was that? I couldn’t hear you over the sound of you being so, very wrong.” Once he makes sure that there is not a drop of grease on his free hand, he playfully gives your head a shove. You make a sound of protest that quickly turns to one of amusement while trying to smooth your hair.
“I am not and you know it,” you shoot back and he responds with a dramatic waive of his hand. “You would always want ice cream or a comic book. Then you’d try and give me puppy dog eyes and promise you’d pay me back. I always gave in”
And he always paid you back. Eventually. Sometimes all at once or by leaving a crumpled up five in your backpack or taping a ten dollar bill to your window.
“I did not try puppy dog eyes,” he protests with his mouth full, chewing in a hurry so he can swallow. “Plus, I was the one funding all of the trouble we got into. And I was cute. Cut me some slack.”
Never had he been so glad to bail on a night of patrol so Ned could drag him to some dinghy bar just to watch Ned botch attempt number five million and six to woo Katie into falling in love with him.
Once we are finished, you dust the crumbs and grease from your fingertips and toss the plate into the trash. He’s been done for a while and you don't hesitate to grab his own plate and send it following mine into the dumpster.
“That’s because I was always better at saving money. If I hadn’t been, how was I supposed to treat you to snacks?”
Peter snickers, “You were definitely not better at saving your money than me.”
“Was too-”
“Nuh uh,” he cuts you off with a sarcastically smug expression. “Remember when you blew all your lunch money on those gum ball machines. The ones with the little rubber pencil toppers inside? You skipped lunch for over a week in hopes of getting that crab one.”
When he looks over at you and sees how your lips curl in an amused smile as you stare ahead, he bites down on his grin but it still feels white hot on his face.
Wherever you two have meandered to is much quieter. Cars are not passing down the road and most people still out at this hour are sticking to the well lit streets with more foot traffic.
“Oh my god. My mom was so mad at me when she found out.” You throw your head back to laugh at the memory. It feels good. It feels right to be here right now. “She found out because you told May that my mom was too busy that week to make me lunch so she’d put an extra sandwich in your lunch box for you to give me.”
Peter opens his mouth to speak but cuts himself off with a look of concentration.
Something is off.
His footsteps slow, yours following when a big burly man in a black fitted shirt steps into your path from the entrance of a long closed restaurant. It wasn’t just a passerby. You can tell from the way his attention is fixated on Peter. The guy's narrowed eyes move to size you up.
Not that you were a threat.
Another man steps out behind you, a third crossing the street and approaching. Muggers. That’s your first thought. It wasn’t terribly uncommon in a city like this, especially given the time and day. You quickly figure out this isn’t a chance of opportunity when the man standing a few feet in front of you speaks.
“Peter Parker?” He tilts his head, features dark from the lack of street lamps but there was no mistaking the glint in his eye. That was enough for Peter to step closer to you. He keeps you half behind him, an arm going out to keep his body between yours and theirs. There was more than one threat to worry about. The other two approach and settle in their own spots so they can circle you against the wall. Peter tries to have his head turned enough to keep the other two men in his peripheral vision.
You tell yourself to stay calm, that everything is going to be fine.
That voice in your head has to scream that at you when you see the flash of the gun dangling in the guy's hand.

so today I had the wonderful opportunity of info dumping the entirety of the undertale multiverse to my friends with no knowledge of the base game (and they actually listening and were interested???!!) ...and this made me realize how truly insane of a fandom UTMV has.
Like... everything we base our discussions on...all the work we pour our hearts into...is fanfiction. Fanfiction (bad sanses and star sanses, the whole X-event) based off of fanfiction (AUs) based off of a random indie game made by Toby Fox and Temmie Chang (Undertale).
Nothing is canon, which makes everything canon...and all work of these characters interacting are purely speculation. There are hundreds, if not thousands of random people online contributing to this massive collection of media, building on existing concepts and branching off each other like a huge mutated tree.
It's almost like tiers to an iceberg in the Undertale fandom. On the surface there is Undertale, the base game made by Toby Fox and Temmie Chang, with some type of normalcy where there is a strict (albeit debated) canon. Go deeper, and there are AUs, fanworks making parallel universes. They hold their own 'canons' and are usually created by 1 or more people. Then you go off the deep end and fall into the Undertale Multiverse (UTMV), where the characters (usually Sanses) break out of there AUs and interact with each other, even breaking away from the base game entirely to fit around the concept of a 'multiverse' where there are creations and we are creators. Canonicity is completely abandoned, everything is in the hands of anyone willing to make art through song, animation, writing, etc. And it runs DEEP.
wtf
#undertale#undertale au#utmv#utmv rambles#underverse rambles#undertale rambles#utmv fandom#utmv headcanons#undertale fandom#i'm probably going nowhere#haha insane rambles#there are other fandoms like this too#right???

Prisms of Parallels
An Invincible Multiverse chronicle
A Mark Grayson x Oc storyline

In the vast existence of the Multiverse, there are infinite possibilities, infinite outcomes. For each one there are events or people that change the course of each universe. This is one of them.
[Dimension:Unknown]
[Beachside territory] [location:unknown] [Date:unknown]
The soft caress of ocean waves lap against gold color sand.
Winds create a gentle breeze to the pleasing climate.
Sitting in the sand, a young couple, husband and wife, sit alongside each other.
A new life swaddled in soft cotton, cooing curiously at the world around them, content in their arms.
A song falling from their lips was would only forever be hers.
Hers for life.
~
What is life in the eyes of the expanse that is the universe?
Fragility?
Borrowed moments?
Truth?
A lie?
Such questions should not be on the mind of someone so young.
To be asking such questions at a funeral was both inappropriately appropriate and appropriately inappropriate.
She wished her grandfather lived forever but that would not happen.
At least he left her with one that that would be immortal.
Wrapped up in blessing to her by incantations.
~
Change is not always linear.
It can be daunting or thrilling.
Never easy.
“I want to stay.”
Her parents exchanged a worried glance. She had voiced her displeasure and would not back down without a fight.
Yet it was necessary to have this change.
She refused to look at them, tears of frustration in her eyes.
“I want to stay home.”
“Home, is where we make it, little one.”
“No! Home is here! This is our home!”
She ran to her small room, upset, determined not to stay.
Her father found her hiding under a blanket as he hummed her song.
She peered from her shield of blankets, watching as he held a small floating orb of water, shaping it to any animal she loved.
Once she leaned against him did he say,” Home is where we make it, where you are, where your heart is.”
“But....it makes me sad.”
“It will not be forever. You are my little fighter. My little lobo. I believe in you. Can you believe in yourself?”
“....I can try.”
~
Change is not fun.
Is what she decided.
What she thought for days.
Being in a new place she doesn’t know is not fun.
Not having friends is not fun.
Being teased is not fun.
She glared at the seat in front of her on the school bus. Others were laughing too loudly or being too annoying. All day long they were like that.
She wanted to be apart of it cause it sounded fun.
At lunch, she liked to sit near the trees, listen to the wind, look at the birds and squirrels.
This made her strange to the other children.
A soft broken warble caught her attention; a baby bird had fallen out of its nest, injured. Scrambling to its aid, holding it in her hands; its small frail body covered in scrapes.
She looked around making sure no one was near before taking her water bottle, pouring water over the small hatchling.
The drops stopped falling before they hit the ground, reversed, before curling around the little bird. The liquid glowing until the bird chirped, fully healed.
She pet its head smiling.
~
Her love for animals turned to be the icebreaker between her and her classmates.
It was exciting to share the love of animals with them making them reciprocate their joy of being with her.
She also loved people, abeit to a degree but loved them nonetheless.
Which is why she wanted to help.
Her parents did not share her enthusiasm however.
Definitely not when she asked her mother to craft her a suit that would adapt to her abilities seamlessly.
“Why don’t you support me?”
“Because it is dangerous!
“There are many people with powers helping people everyday!,” she argued.
“They can mean well all they want but will not mean well for you at the end! Not who they really work for!”
She blinked confused as her father held her shoulders:”You want to help, that is noble, you want to protect that is who you are. But they do not see the way you do. Here and in many places they make the choice between being good people or saving people. They have no rules between the two only that you can’t be both.”
“Then I will make my own rules.”
Her father gritted his teeth as her mother sighed, looking for incantation book:”you can make your own but the difficulty is following them.”
~
Sighing, she let the agents drive past once again while hiding in an alley.
They were stubbornly persistent, she would give them that.
Yet, she could evade them however long they pleased until understood she was not interested in the slightest.
She looked around about to shift back when her mind sensed an energy spike manifesting.
She was quicker shifting her hand into sharp diamond aimed at this new presence.
Said presence blinked:”I just purchased this suit.”
His only response to his words was her narrowing her eyes at him. Well what he assumed were her eyes. Her liquid form simply gave her silhouette but no distinguishable features for him to identify her.
In simple terms, her identity was hidden and obscured from him.
He continued:”we’ve been watching you, fighting I mean. You do good work, make sure civilians are safe from harm. You don’t make too much of a mess but that’s usually unavoidable. We assume you mean no harm.”
She didn’t assure him of anything.
Opening his jacket, he pulled out a card:” Cecil Steadmen, I work with the GDA. I’d like to make you an offer.”
Lowering the arm that was diamond before returning it to liquid, she took the card, letting it swish around in the water.
This Cecil raised a brow:” Not a talker, that’s fine. Can I at least have your name?”
He was surprised when she simply disappeared into thin air.
Even despite calling his team to track her movements, how could they track the wind?
In all seriousness, how could they when she became the wind before materializing back into herself a good ways away.
Holding her side she winced, definitely sore, no open wound though as always but the strength training has been helping as of late.
Tapping the concrete wall, flexing her hand over the smooth surface did it open itself, the small compartment hiding her belongings, including her phone.
A lot of missed messages from her cousins.
They were waiting for her to start dinner.
~
It was helpful that most of her family knew of her abilities; each member had at least one themselves just not to the strength nor degree she had hers.
It was both a blessing and a curse as they say.
Luckily they were all past the age of it being their defining attribute as well as a means of envy.
They had other things to worry about.
For instance, today’s priority was lunch.
She was offered by one of the cousins to help pick up some burgers.
As they drove, her older cousin chuckled hearing their phones ping with message nonstop on what to get.
Resisting the urge to roll her eyes, her cousin couldn’t help but snicker:” cheer up. Today is Saturday. And Saturdays at BurgerMart are always fun.”
“Getting hamburgers on a Saturday during lunch rush is fun?”
“It’s fun because every Saturday there’s a cute cashier working. He’s not my type but nice to look at. I think he might be your type.”
Rolling her eyes again, she went inside to order the burgers for everyone. Naturally it was a long line for the lunch rush.
When it was finally her turn, she realized her cousin wasn’t lying that the cashier boy was cute.
Perhaps she was staring too long because he looked up from the register to double take before coughing.
He stuttered:” wel-hmm! Welcome to BurgerMart! May I take your order?”
She tried her best to not smirk as his ears grew pink.
Looking at her phone then back at him, she couldn’t help it.
“Hmmm may you tell me which combo meal includes your phone number?”
It took him a moment to register what she said, his face turning scarlet when he did.
He stuttered for a few moments before squeaking:”I - I take my break in....ten minutes..”
“Then I guess I’m waiting ten minutes.”
He couldn’t function properly while taking the food order.
And once he was on his break, he couldn’t help but rub his neck, face still flushed.
As she put his information in her phone she asked:”Do you prefer Markus or Mark?”
“I actually prefer my middle name Sebastian.”
“Noted.”
“And you?”
She hummed placed a finger on his chest:”For now you can call me Loba. It means wolf in Spanish. It’s a nickname.”
He stuttered again as she walked away, not being able to tear his gaze from her. Once she was gone, he immediately called his best friend.
“Will! You won’t believe what just happened!”
His coworkers gave him a side eye.
“He’s not going to shut up about this for days, let alone today.”
“Kill me now.”
Their manager snapped at them to get back to work making them scramble yet one questioned:”what kind of nickname is wolf?
The other grabbed the mop:”I don’t know. Maybe it means something. Like something deeper.”
“I guess you’re right.”
They began to clean and mop, ignoring the tv playing in the background showing a hero that switched between water and solid diamond. Nameless yet strong.

Description: Hello! The wonderful @fangirlvibez tagged me in this challenge back on September 9th and I saw it when I logged in today so you know I had to do it lovies. Thank you so much @fangirlvibez for tagging me, I am so sorry for the late reply but I hope you like it. And feel free to tag me for any more little challenges or prompts you had because I absolutely loved this one. <3
(Psst..... The song of this imagine is - Carried Me With You)
Enjoy! (pssst, song choice is -Carried Me With You- Listen and read for a top tier experience lovies.)
The Build A Bear employee looks extremely suspicious when Jake brings the empty coat of a bear up to her, a fake smile plastered from ear to ear as he holds it out as if he just ran into the woods to hunt it himself.
Honestly he was sure he looked like a massive freak, from the 20 minutes he spent looking at all the display bears to choose and up to now where he probably looked like he had been one of Jokers goons in Batman. But he couldn’t help it, he was doing his very best not to breakdown and cry in front of this poor teen.
She blinks up at him, back to the bear, and then back to him.
“This is the bear you’ve chosen?” That one question has him debating everything, eyes widening as he pulls it back to himself quickly.
“No. Yes. I have no clue.”
“Okay, cool.” The worker, a young girl decked out in the most goth punk outfit he had ever seen, smiles and moves to grab it from him. Her long black acrylic nails snag the poor pelt from his hands and she pulls it to the stuffing machine. “We have multiple hearts that you can choose from for your little buddy here. We have classic, plaid and then a beating heart. Go ahead and take a look.”
Jake nods, moving to grab one slowly before turning back to her. “You guys have sounds, right?”
“We do indeed.” She smiles, nodding her head to show him the sound station. “Go ahead and pick or make a sound.”
She turns back to fix one of the spikes on her boots as he does so, rushing over to start recording the sound. The little script he wrote that morning on a sticky note was hard to read but he managed it, making sure to use that southern drawl he knew his baby girl loved before coming back to the stuffing station and handing it to her.
“Alright, do we want our little buddy to be firm or plush?”
“I think…. How about firm?”
“Sounds great, and let’s go ahead and bless the heart while I’m doing this. First I’m going to have you rub your head so our buddy is smart. Perfect, now lets rub our belly so our buddy always has a good appetite. Awesome. Don’t forget to rub your knees so your furry friend always kneeds you. Jump up and down to get the heart beating and rub it against your heart so they always know how much you love them. And lastly close your eyes, make a wish and give it a kiss.”
Jake follows her word for word, going with the ceremony even though he knows it’s for kids. And when he closes his eyes he wishes ‘Keep my babies safe and happy’ before kissing the heart and handing it to her. She ties the bear up and hands him off, the teddy looking straight into Jake’s eyes as he walks off to find it a cute little outfit.
By the time he makes it to the register Jake has the bear in a little naval outfit, hat and all, and the worker is grabbing the birth certificate from the printer with narrowed eyes.
As she rings out the clothes he watches her closely, heart beating against his rib cage each step of the way. She was very goth, from the badass makeup to the spiky hair and spiky collar, not to mention the huge boots. It was like wednesday adams went punk and then got a job as Build A Bear as a joke.
Then she turned to expose the backpack holding the pink stuffed animal decked out in rainbow and he couldn’t help but laugh. “What’s her name?”
“Cannibal, but when the kids ask Cami.”
“Cami the Cannibal, I love it.”
She finishes ringing everything up, raising an eyebrow. “Bugs?”
“Oh, yeah. It’s for my darlin’. You see I call her mom ‘Bubs’ and I call her ‘Bugs’.” Jake explains, whipping out his card as she begins dressing the bear.
“This is for your daughter? How old is she turning?”
“Oh, it’s not for her birthday. I’m being deployed so this is my….. Something she has of me while I am gone.”
Her face goes slack and she blinks at him before shaking her head. “How old is your daughter?”
“Four.”
“Then I’m saying this is a birthday bear. You only have to pay how old you’re turning for the bear.”
He thanks her, and before he knows it he is buckling Bugs into the backseat and driving home to see his two girls.
-
Bugs sits at the top of your closet for the next 5 weeks, you both break the news to your daughter four weeks out. She begs him not to leave and you let her sleep in your bed to try and soothe her tears.
She sleeps in your bed every night after that.
2 weeks out Jake’s mother throws a going away party for him, your daughter cries the entire time.
Then the time came.
Jake woke earlier than you, desperate to let you both get a little more sleep as he shuffled into the shared closet and reached up to find the box that held bugs. Dusting the bear off and making sure he looked good before moving to set it in the living room by his deployment bags.
He kisses both your foreheads before jumping in the shower and getting dressed into his uniform. His throat is tight and his eyes burn but he does his best to keep it together, by the time he is dressed and ready to go he finds both of you sitting in the living room crying softly.
You are doing your best to stop the tears, and Jake feels something shatter in his chest at the sight before the blur of the four year old is dashing to him.
“Please don’t go.” She sobs, hands gathering the fabric of his uniform as he swipes the tears from her cheeks.
“Easy now, Bugs. I’ll be back. It’ll be okay.”
“Please don’t go daddy! Tell them you can’t go!” From the corner of his eyes he sees you shuffling closer with the box, and he nods, reaching a hand out for the bear.
“Daddy needs you to do something for me, okay bugs?” The tears are falling freely now as she shoves her forehead into his chest. He has to pull her back a bit so she sees the bear. “This? This is my friend Bugs, and Bugs is very very important to me. You wanna know why?”
“Why?”
“Because Bugs promised to take care of you for me. And he is gonna do a great job of it. But I need you to keep Bugs with you so he can do that. Yeah?”
She shakes her head at first, sobbing loudly as he kisses at her forehead, before her hands reach out to pull the bear to her.
12 minutes later you are holding her in your arms, crying as Jake gives you both one more kiss and heads out to the truck, waving as he pulls the car out even if he feels his heart shattering in his own chest.
-
You keep y/d home for the day, making her mac and cheese for lunch ans trying to play all her favorite movies in an attempt to cheer her up a bit. Nothing seems to work and she sobs all day, not that you were much better.
By the time you are ready to tuck her in your eyes hurt from the amount of crying you had done and you felt drained and dehydrated. But nonetheless you hold your daughters hand as she shuffles into her room where Bugs now sat on the bed.
You dress her in one of Jakes soft shirts for pajamas, tucking her into the blanket softly and rubbing her cheek.
“Daddy always is here to say goodnight too.” She cries and you nod slowly, reaching for the bear.
“You really think he would forget?” You smile softly, pinching the bear's paw.
Jake’s southern voice rings out, a little frazzled out but there nonetheless.
“The sun is setting in the sky.
Let's light the moon and bring it high.
The shimmering stars sparkle and twinkle.
I work out my wiggles as stardust I sprinkle.
The tree stands tall as the owl hoots.
I send all my worries right down through my roots.
A moonlit lake, as I sit on the shore.
Reflects three things that I am grateful for.
With my hands on my heart, love is swirling around me.
So I send it out to my friends and family.
As I lie down I breathe one, two, three.
And feel the love come back to me.
Goodnight Bugs.”
She curls around the bear, sobbing loudly as you kiss her head. Truly not knowing how to fix this.
-
Three months later, you are holding her hand as she leads you through the mall, Bugs wrapped tightly in her other arm.
She had played the sound so much that it sort of stopped working and instead of the entire poem all the bear truly said now was ‘Goodnight Bugs’. But that would have to do for now.
You had done so many emergency surgeries on the bear since she refused to leave him behind. The poor thing had barely survived the kindergarten recess debacle before her teacher had to cut in and take the bear from her and the kid who had been wrestling to steal it.
She had come home that day a blubbering mess until you sewed the arm back on and she kissed it better.
She had taken Bugs to the daddy donut day her school ran, and though she still her her grandpa there that day you were eternally grateful she had that bear.
But Jake’s birthday was coming up, and you knew it would be rough on her no matter how many facetime calls he managed to sneak in. So you had asked what she wanted to do for his birthday.
Which leads you here, staring at all the bear options in front of you as she tries to figure out which one she wants..
There was a goth girl waiting at the stuffing station, and you couldn’t figure out if she was glaring or trying to recognize you.
“How about this one, bugs?” You ask, showing her the stitch before she shakes her head and snatches a brown bear.
“It’s got to look cool mom.” Another milestone that you were positive Jake was devastated about. While he was away it had gone from daddy and mommy to dad and mom. It wasn’t much of a difference but it still made your chest ache every time she called you it.
Before you know it she has snatched a bear and dashed to the sound station, not bothering to see if you would follow.
By the time you make it to the stuffing station you are doing your best not to cry, handing the girl the sound and the bear as she smiles.
“I see we have a bear, is this going to be his buddy?”
“YES!” Your daughter smiles, bouncing on her feet as you move to grab Bugs.
“How about I hold this so you can create him. Yeah?”
She reluctantly lets go, moving to pick a heart as the girl asks about the pressure.
“I want him so soft that you can squeeze all the love!” Y/d giggles and you can’t help but smile at that. The worker smiles to, her black lipstick making it all more of a victory. “I like your bear, what’s her name?”
“Cami.” The worker smiles and y/d shakes her head. “No?”
“No, how about….destroyer?”
“Oh, I like the way you think. Okay now touch the heart to your toes so your furry friend is ‘toe’tally awesome. Great job. Touch the heart to your knees so he always ‘knee’ds you. Good good. Now rub the heart between your hands so he always stays warm, don’t forget to rub your ears so he always hears you. And Now your eyes so he always sees you. Now rub your heart so he always has love and jump up and down three times to get that heart beating.”
Y/d does everything with a huge smile lathered on her face, and the worker has the same excited smile on her own.
“Now I need you to close you eyes and make a wish before you kiss the heart.”
She does as told, squeezing her eyes shut before saying ‘Make sure my dad is happy.”
And then the workers face falls into one of recognition, her eyes casting to the bear now held in your hand and back to the one she had been stuffing.
By the time you have an outfit picked out she already has the certificate in her hands, nodding.
“Bubs. I like it.”
“Thank you. It’s what my dad and mom call each other.” Your daughter smiles, standing on her tiptoes to look up to the worker.
“Let me guess, your bugs.”
“I AM!” And just like that a wide smile is splitting across her cheeks as she slides the bear across the counter to your side.
“It’s your lucky day. This bear is a part of the lonely hearts foundation. Which means so long as he is adopted into a happy and loving home he comes with no charge. Are you happy, bugs?”
“Yes.”
“Are you healthy, bugs?”
“I eat my broccoli, yeah.” You try not to snort, remembering that you had to bribe her with 6 oreos after a 2 hour dinner table stand off.
“Then Bubs has found the perfect home.” You mouth a thank you to the girl as you leave, giving your daughter bugs back so you can carry the box.
-
Jake Seresin was absolutely miserable the day he got his birthday package.
He was sweaty from the jets, irritated by his team. But most importantly he was completely lost without his girls.
It had been four months since he last got to hold them and he was beginning to lose it. Sure, he got to facetime them which was a lot more then some of the other guys but he missed them terribly and he wanted nothing more than to be with them.
He had gotten an extra thirty minutes of call time on his birthday a week ago, to which you had promised him you sent something out before y/d interrupted with a sassy tone “don’t ruin the surprise for dad, mom.”
He tried not to get upset at the dad part, but he couldn’t help it. He left while his bug called him daddy and stil had the chubbiest baby cheeks in town and now his little darlin’ was growing up and he couldn’t actually see it.
But you had told him to expect the package and he did, finally a week later it was mail day and he sat on his bunk surrounded by his squad as they tore through letters. He sliced the tape of the box open, lifting the lid to reveal the cutest bear dressed in a texan jersey with glasses that reminded him of BOB.
A laugh slips from his lips as he reaches to pull the bear to his chest, noting the cotton candy scent before his eyes snag on the letter.
“Dear Bubs,
This bear was sent out with a promise to keep. He promised both me and your daughter that he would keep you happy and healthy and bring you home to us. We made him knowing that only the bravest of bears could do this task and we made sure he was stocked up for the flight over. In the box he took your favorite candies. A stack of photos and a really cool beaded bracelet your daughter made at school. He was given a cotton candy scent to help block off the stuffy scent from the box but most importantly, he carries a top secret message that not even I was allowed to listen to.
We hope Bubs takes care of you until you are allowed back into our arms, until then stay safe and don’t forget we love you.
Love, Your bubs.”:
There is a little monster drawn on the paper in crayon that makes his heart swell as he traces his fingers over the words and drawing before reaching to the bear.
He lays with it as a pillow, pressing his cheek to the chest as he presses the hand to reveal the sound.
His daughter's voice fills his ears, in the cheesiest southern accent he had ever heard. “I breathe one two three and feel the love come back to me. Good night daddy.”
-
The next set of photos you receive in the mail are all photos of Jake and Bubs on journeys, and Y/D’s favorite was the one of the entire squad posing with bubs. Bob and the bear having switched glasses.
You, of course, begin sending adventures back. One of Bugs and your daughter baking, another of the two on a swing set.
Jake sends back a photo of Bubs ‘flying’ a plane.
Over and over you both send the photos back and forth, everything is a little bit better when you carry a piece of each other with them.
Your daughter asks you at dinner one night, between shoving her chicken in her face and avoiding the broccoli, if you had wanted a bug and bubs bear.
All you can do is smile, booping her nose as you mumble. “You were my bear last time he was deployed.”
“What did you send him?”
“A pee stick.” She doesn’t find it as funny as you did, but she makes sure to have bugs kiss your cheek goodnight before dashing to bed.

2024 Fic Round Up
tagged by .... many people. Thank you!
73K of Lonestar 197K of 911 with @cecilyv
Prolific year.
January
To be at home in fragments (911: Lonestar, TK/Carlos) tumblr ficlets
April
The Knave of Clubs .... swears he'll take her part (911: Lonestar, TK, Carlos, Art Thief!AU, aka Knave IV)
There’s a way that panic can make you feel nauseous, and he has to swallow hard before he can get the words out. “Tell me what you need me to do.”
Trudie gives him an approving smile, like a teacher with a student who’s given the right answer. “You’re going to help me steal a statue.”
(I'm in love) but i do not speak the language (911, Buck/Tommy, aka @cecilyv and I start down a rabbit hole from which we have not yet emerged)
What he does tell Maddie (and Chim) is that he’s never going to push Evan; that whatever this turns out to be, it’s between the two of them.
She laughs in his face and Chim chuckles, and Tommy wonders what he really got himself into.
May
Awful quiet here since love fell asleep (911, Buck/Tommy)
A Buck/Tommy break up/make up fic that back in May @cecilyv thought no one was asking for. And then the show said, hold my beer. Our take was better.
Things don’t always work out, the first time around.
Baggage that goes with mine (911, Buck/Tommy, What Binds the Fabric Together I)
Our take on a Tommy Begins episode.
June
I'll cover you (911, Buck/Tommy, What Binds the Fabric Together II)
Gerrard comes back. The 118 tries to adjust and Buck and Tommy accidently acquire a dog.
Leave the past behind (911, Buck/Tommy, What Binds the Fabric Together III)
A funeral and too many text messages. Tommy’s dad dies and everyone...adjusts.
July
Your love is better than ice cream (911, Buck/Tommy)
An alternative meet-cute, where-in Tommy doesn’t know the 118 and decides Buck is worth it anyway. Buck is confused but figures some things out.
I hear there are great restaurants out west (911, Buck/Tommy, What Binds the Fabric Together IV)
Tommy and Buck and an open road. AKA Roadtrip fic.
August
Atlas (bound) (911, Buck/Tommy)
A behind the scenes look at how you speedrun a relationship, and what happens when the pieces of yourself that you try to hide, embarrassed and afraid, come to the surface.
Tags: The Buckley siblings have bad parents
What's with today, today? (911, Buck/Tommy)
The 118 is a library and Buck is the children’s librarian; Tommy’s the man behind on Stuffie Day at the local fire station. No stuffed animals were harmed in the writing of this fic.
September
Inside, You've Got Heaven and Earth (911, Buck/Tommy)
Tommy and Buck’s world changes in an instant. How do they recover and find their way back home?
We all want to break Tommy (at least a little), right? There is a car accident discussed herein. We’d started this months ago, but came back to it after @alchemistc asked, “What kind of patient is Tommy Kinard?” and we realized we still had a lot to say. Recovery is a personal experience and this is not intended to be medically accurate by any stretch of the imagination. So much hand-waving.
Tumblr mini-fics (911, Buck/Tommy)
what it says on the package
October
Star Baker (911, Buck/Tommy)
Tommy’s down bad for every version of Buck.
Absolutely no baked goods are made in the course of this fic.
Just a bit outside (911, Buck/Tommy)
Who wants to see Tommy in baseball pants?
@cecilyv wrote anything about actual baseball, I contributed bad baseball sex puns. This is the usual division of labor.
Napoleon's Battle Plan (911, Buck/Tommy)
First you show up, then you see what happens. Tommy reevaluates his priorities, one interaction at a time. AKA 5+1 Tommy and the 118 kids(fic).
November
In a Yellow Wood (911, Buck/Tommy)
It’s been three years since the break-up when Tommy saves a family and it upends his life. AKA actual kid!fic
Every song has a you (911, Buck/Tommy)
Buck and Tommy talk but do they listen? A fix-it fic that goes AU after 8.06.
Everyone gets to be angry for a while, and then talk it out.
December
A comet's misfortune (911, Buck/Tommy)
One day, Buck and Maddie’s past shows up at her door. Buck should have realized that if they’d been able to hide a kid, they could jettison an entire family, too.
Note: This took us so long to write, and had about three different versions that existed before we got to this one.
The chain I forged (911, Buck/Tommy)
Tommy gets visited by the Ghost of Christmas (or possibly hallucinates as a result of whatever was in those shots Lucy handed him last night). Either way, he’s too old for this shit.
tagging anyone who wants to play.
