Oooh. I def threw all that writing into the queue and meant to shuffle it and just never did (': Oh well I love all those pieces and I adore getting to read them again.
I know reblogtober is over but I think everyone should just keep it going for a full year. It's important!! Sometimes you don't get to bask in your own creativity in the moment of making. Kind of a can't see the forest for the trees moment!!
#ooc#you can tell when im queueing things right before bed because its from mobile#so it has NO tags because xkit can't add tags on mobile because its browser only#at least what i have set up#ANYWAY ANYWAY ANYWAY#i love to read my own writing a few weeks/months later because i am#always so amazed at the skill i miss in the moment#you know what i mean?

#idk how to put this without sounding like an asshole#but#I'm thinking a lot about how I know several people irl who seem to believe that because they have a good camera they take good photos#they will tell me 'my camera takes 10mb photos so they're very good'#all this tells me is that your photos are big#it says nothing about the quality. the composition. the lighting. the *feeling*. the eye for your art.#and I just think a lot of people confuse good equipment with skill#like sure good equipment might help#but if you don't have the skills or the eye for beauty and art your photos will not be good regardless of what you use#idk these people just bug me#(my brother is one of these people#he got an expensive camera and went to an expensive training to learn technical skills#and then got upset because his pictures still didn't turn out great#and like#bro. it's because you don't care about art. you never set foot inside a museum. you never go for walks in nature (or anywhere).#all your screensavers are the standard pictures#you like pictures taken by drones *because* they're taken by drones#not because the subject is cool#and that is why your photos don't look amazing)

#tag talk#you know what never makes sense to me?#a lot of my friends at one time or another have apologized for being mean or rude or whatever and I'm just like wait what?#cause I genuinely don't take things as mean or rude. I just assume people are doing their best and I don't take offense.#anyway. thinking about this cause I saw a name on Instagram of a coworker who I always thought was so cool and amazing and I liked a lot#and a while after I left that job she texted me out of the blue apologizing for always being rude to me and I was like ???#cause I genuinely never thought she was being mean to me#idk maybe I'm super autistic and just don't notice people being mean to me? but I consider myself socially aware (a hard-won skill though)#so idk#I don't even feel like I'm that wildly nice of a person out just seems like common decency to assume the best of people#obviously until proven otherwise. be kind not naive.#but like. I want people to assume the best of me so I extend that same grace to others.#I just don't get why people aren't nice. that's just social pragmatism.#I want you to be nice to me so I will be nice to you.#which tbf. if I don't want someone to be nice to me I do kind of turn around and be pretty mean to them.#I ain't no saint.#but that's typically just to enforce an emotional boundary that I feel has been crossed. it's always a defensive maneuver.#like when a friend crossed a boundary I had set and we didn't talk until she accepted it and apologized.#I was okay with venting and rants but set a line at being immediate crisis support cause I can't handle that emotionally.#so when she crossed that line I did what I could in the moment but then the day after I wrote out my message being like hey I didn't like it#and she flipped out so I was like hey this is my boundary I explained to you and if you can't respect that then we're not talking#and a month later she was like oh shit I finally realize how that crossed your boundary and so now we're friends again.#anyway. ramble is now over bye.

The Honda Odyssey
Logan Howlett x Reader | smut | 6k words Summary: The car fight reimagined and it only needed to be like 10% more erotic than the original.
I got carried away. I just love Wolvie so much. I'm so happy Logan is getting the adoration he deserves. Long live the Wolverine renaissance.
Warning: smut, p in v, ass play, foul language.
If you had to pinpoint a moment when your life became the shit show it had steadily developed into, youâd say it was the moment you auditioned for X-Force.
In your tenure as besties with Wade Wilson, it's fair to say things hadnât gone smoothly. The man was a conduit to all things fucked up, but you adored his loose morals and quick mouth. The idiot in red had weaselled his way into your heart and became something of a brother to you and more recently a roommate.
Now, if youâd have told your younger self youâd be in your late twentyâs sharing an apartment with a burn victim who regularly staples a toupee to his fucking head and a coke-head, blind, old African American woman, youâd have laughed in their fucking face.
So, youâd like to think that as these things go you are pretty damn well adjusted but traversing the multiverse was a bit of a stretch, even for you.
One moment youâre at Wadeâs surprise party, the next your ass has been zapped to the TVA and youâve been given a sacred mission; to accompany Marvel Jesus (Wade) and protect the sacred timeline.
Naturally youâre fucking mind blown, youâre a low-level mutant, fuck, you couldnât even join the X-Men. Â Your particular set of skills were a dime a dozen and your flagrant disregard of rules had made you a âpoor candidateâ.
No, the mutant powers you had been graced with werenât extraordinary by any means. You were basically an off-brand Captain America, just without the gorgeous cheekbones, patriotism and righteous need to do good.
In layman terms, you are strong as shit and have an accelerated healing factor. Not quite the same level as Wadeâs mind you. You have, give or take, an inconvenient five-minute turnaround on the more fatally debilitating wounds.
To say you were unqualified was an understatement and to say you were reluctant was a simple fact. A fact you repeated, loudly to anyone that would listen as you were bathed in rich black leather.
âI think maybe you meant to grab negasonic teenage whatchacallit⌠sheâs great, super powerful!â You continue. âDid you mean to get Domino or Colossus or maybe one of the X-Men? â
âNo Miss Y/L/N. We have not got the wrong person for the job.â The man you later find out is called Paradox, calls out as you re-enter the operation headquarters. âMr Wilson requested your presence; he wanted your assistance on his mission.â
âY/N/N⌠ten out of ten, baby girl, I one hundred percent would bang. Iâm talking raw dog, Barry White on a rug, letâs go all fuckinâ night.â  Wade hollers in his own brand-new suit and even you must admit, you look fucking amazing. âSweet angel, weâve just gottaâ come up with a superhero name for you!â
You are enrobed in rich thick black and teal leather, your first ever hero suit and itâs a fucking good one. It doesnât cling, but instead pulls you in securing your flesh and extenuating curves, ones you hadnât entirely realised you had. The bottom half your face is concealed with a mask, carefully crafted to follow the contours of your nose and cheekbones.
Youâd barely recognised the mysterious figure in the mirror.
âRight?! Tailor was pretty handsy though!â
âOh yeah, ha! - that man is indeed a predator.â Wade says with a chuckle and a fond sigh.
It shames to you to say but thatâs when you stopped fighting this whole thing. You looked the part of a hero; you thought that maybe the TVA knew what they were doing. That they had seen something in you and knew that you had a good heart under all the darkness that lingered on the surface.
Wrong.
You were just a demand Wade had made. He wanted his number one disciple at his side whilst he carried out his sacred mission. You were part of an attempt at appeasing him whilst they destroyed your timeline.
Little more than a pawn to be used whilst they manipulated him into a false sense of security.
Thus, you were thrown into a series of events far beyond your control when Wade being Wade decided you were hunting down a Wolverine to stabilise the timeline, only to be once again fucking zapped into some place they called the void by that little English shitbird named Paradox. Itâs entirely accurate to say that you were a little less sturdy than your compadres.
Unfortunately for you, the fall from such a height into the void was fatal. When you finally awake in the desolate wasteland to the sounds of blades clashing it is disorientating to say the least.
Forcing yourself to your feet you lower your mask and gasp in the sweet strangely stale oxygen as you stretch out your newly healed spine with a groan. It was impossible to tell how long you were out as you take in the scene before you; Wade and the Wolverine are engaged in a heated battle. From the looks of it, Logan is winning this fight despite being the human equivalent of a knife block with Wadeâs katanas protruding from his chest.
For a moment you pause, perhaps its head trauma that hasnât healed (Heâs fucking Deadpool, he can look after himself for two minutes) and appreciate his form, the Wolverine the two of you had kidnapped was gorgeous. Tch, as if there was any other kind.
Sure, you were biased youâd always been somewhat of a fangirl, but the Wolverine was objectively breath-taking.
Youâd indulged in comics whilst growing up but when you found out he was real and looked the way he did, hell, Wolverine was your sexual awakening. He was the first man to make you feel that tingle in your lower stomach. Yes, you may have been thirteen years old, a ball of puppy fat and social anxiety but youâd been waiting for him ever since.Â
Youâre snapped out of your reverie when Wade loses baby knife in Loganâs shoulder blade, finally you spring into action. In good time as well as youâre not sure if even Deadpool can survive decapitation.
In the singularly most stupid act of your life you throw yourself in front of your friendâs body. âWait, Wait! Please!â Â
Wade has paused behind you, you can feel him weighing up the situation, pausing for a moment to see what youâre going to pull out of the bag.
âThe TVA they can fix it, whatever you did, whatever made you the worst Logan, they can fix it! â They have the power to end universes, but they also have the power to fix yours! Help us get back there and we can fix both of our worlds! I promise, they can fix it.â You plead, itâs not quite a lie exactly, more of an Educated Wish than anything.
Okay it is a lie, but youâre sure that the TVA can most likely, probably, maybe fix his world.
Loganâs eyes lock with yours in that moment you can see that he wants to kill you both and be done with it, but that hope wonât let him. You feel a smidgen of guilt for the deceit, but frankly youâve done worse for less. Your world was on the line it wasnât the time to pull your punches.
Fast forward four exhausting hours, two periods of unconsciousness and one flaying to find yourself sat opposite Wade gagging down cold spoonfulâs of Spam in some dusty ass diner.
You were no better than a man as you watched the Wolverine.
Those arms, those thighs, the way he had beheaded Sabretooth without even breaking a fucking sweat. You wanted him to wrap those instruments of death he called hands around your throat and fuck you dirty until the sun came up.
It had been a long exhausting day and you had been soaking wet for most of it.
Shit, could he smell that? Does that count as sexual harassment? Youâd have to ask Wade.
Logan, however, was utterly dismissive of your advances in the face of what was undoubtedly utterly horrific past trauma. Something you were trying to be understanding about, but self-pity in a man, it just turned you on. I said you had some surface layers of darkness.
Unable to help yourself you gaze at him as he opens a bottle of rubbing alcohol. You are utterly entranced, watching the thick chords in his throat bob as he takes a swig.
That tanned skin where his jaw ends and neck begins, slick with sweat and dirt. Youâd love to sink your canines into the strip below his ear. He must feel your stare on him as he looks up and catches your eyes dark with lust already surveying his person.
It should embarrass you, that every time he peers your way, he catches you gaping at him like a lovesick puppy, but thereâs something about Logan you canât quite put your finger on. The man heats your blood like nothing youâve ever experienced before, maybe itâs that torch youâve carried for him since girlhood, maybe itâs the thick thighs youâd kill to ride â who can say for sure?
In what you assume is against his better judgement, he comes to perch on the booth beside you. His broad shoulders cast an imposing figure as he gets close enough that if you were to move your hand a couple of inches to the right, youâd finally be able to touch that yellow fabric that plagued your tween dreams.
Youâre burning up at the thought of him, unable to stop yourself you part your legs slightly to ease some of the pressure. Logans nose twitches, his head swivels your way and his eyes catch your own. Â
Welp - at least you have your answer about him smelling your arousal.
Deciding that you were most likely verging on sexual harassment charges you decided to focus back in on the task at hand, gagging once again at another spoonful of spam.
âBe a good girl and swallow, Y/N/N, you know the rules!â Wade jokes, your chortle was your only response. What could you say? He always hit your funny bone despite the ocean that was raging in your panties.
Logan stares at Wade for a long moment before turning to your way and addressing you for maybe only the fourth time today?
âWhat are you doing with this fucking clown? You his sidekick? Following him round to laugh at his stupid fucking jokes whilst he gets kids killed?â
âWhy I have never.â Wade is faux outraged at his words, clutching his imaginary pearls as the Wolverine throws around accusations that arenât entirely untrue.
The Wolverineâs expression remains stern as his eyes track your face. They seem to be evaluating your character and from the flare in his nose and crease in his brow you can guess he finds you lacking. Youâre embarrassed to admit how much that deflates you, so you do what you do best; you deflect.
 âI could follow you around and laugh at your jokes instead, if you like?â When you speak your voice has a sultry edge to it and thereâs no mistaking your intentions.
Logan seems to think on your proposition for a second or two, before he huffs grabs his rubbing alcohol and unopened can of Spam and heads over to sit at the bar.
âHoly hot ham and cheese on rye, Y/N, you fucking slut.â Wade berates you though his voice is as light as itâs always been as he boots your shin under the table. âTrying to your holes filled by Wolvie during a world saving mission, Marvel H Christ, stay on fucking task!���
You swear you hear Logan mutter a Jesus Christ from the bar.
Though as Wade continues irritating the hero hunched against bar, you canât help the realisation that he didnât say no.
âYouâre uh⌠well regarded in our world.â Wade complements, being real doesnât come easy to him. You appreciate the effort.
âWell, Iâm not shit in mine.â
âI tried to join the X-Men because of you.â You speak up finally joining their conversation. Wolverineâs back goes rigid, but he doesnât respond. Youâre not sure if heâs waiting for you to continue or hoping youâll stop. âYou made a difference to this world, made me think I could do the same. I just never quite make the cut.â
Logan doesnât seem to have a response.
It seems your words have an effect as you catch him watching you more often. When Wade makes his jokes, he looks to you for validation of his withering looks.
Youâre probably more distracted by this revelation than you should be when the three of you come across a real nasty variant of Colossus seeking out Wade for⌠you want to say⌠revenge?
The not-so-gentle-anymore-giant flips the Honda and tosses both Wade and Logan through the treeline as they advance on him as if they were little more than toys his mother had asked him to pick up.
One by one your bullets ricochet from his metal skin as he comes towards you. You arenât built for this fight; you are completely and utterly outmatched.
All youâre doing at this point is buying yourself some time for your backup to pull themselves from the rubble, however during a particularly spirited cartwheel the metal oaf finally gets his hands on you. Colossusâ metal palm is cold on your throat, and you could swear you hear your neck snapping before you feel it. Â
With a gasp you return to life to find a slightly dishevelled Logan standing above you. By the grace of god, his sleeves have been worn away in the fight, his arms, oh sweet lord, his arms are on full display.
âThought you were a goner.â He offers you a hand when you simply stare mutely his way. Locking your fingers around his wrist he pulls you to your feet. You donât release your hold on him and neither does he.
âDonât throw the party just yet, eh?â You joke weakly, for a second you could swear thereâs a slight raise of the corner of his mouth, imperceptible, if you didnât know what you were looking for. In the past few hours you had become an expert on Wolverineâs face. Â
Your mouth is dry as you take in his thick sweat laden biceps.
âWhereâs Wade?â You query whilst rolling your aching neck as you havenât heard his voice in a record thirty seconds, Logan suddenly remembers himself and drops your hand.
ââfraid Metal man took your clown, was pissed with him and canât say I blame the guy.â
âShit.â You sigh rubbing your temples as you kneel to pick up the dismembered arm of your best friend. âWell â fuck. Thatâll take him a few hours at least to grow back â Heâll be so sad about his suit.â
You peel the fabric from the limb and tuck it under the breast plate of your own suit. Wade will want his glove back when it grows back.
âHe say where he was taking him?â
âOh yeah, that along with his plan for world domination...â Logan huffs as if your mere presence annoys him.
âThought you didnât like sarcasm.â
âI like sarcasm just fine, Bub. Itâs you I donât like.â You canât help but smile his way at the comment made at your expense, his brows crease. âYouâre a strange one.â
âCan you do your sniffy thing?â Its impressive, you thought heâd reached the limit with his scathing looks towards Wade, yet he somehow manages to pull a deeper frown out the vault especially for you.
âSniffy thing?â His words are spoken with such derision, it turns you on a little. You realise that perhaps you are in fact a deeply troubled individual.
âOh, sorry.â You pretend to clear a frog in your throat. âPlease, oh, please, beautiful, handsome Wolverine, please can you locate my bestest pal with your heightened sense of smell?â His face doesnât break despite your hands clasped in front of your chin.
âYouâre just as fucking annoying as that moron.â He huffs âGet in the fucking car, weâll follow his trail.â
âYou can smell him from the car?â
âThe blood, Jesus Fucking Christ, thereâs a trail of blood.â
âAh.â Is all you reply as you find your seat in the passenger side and start your own one on one team up with Wolverine. Its not exactly the way you imagined it, but beggars certainly canât be choosers.
After a few moments of sullen silence, you decide that thereâs no time like the present to form a long-lasting bond.
âWhatâs your world like?â
âNone of your fucking business.â
âOkay... Whatâs the first thing youâre gonnaâ do if they can save your world? I bet its something boring as fuck, like team-â
âWhat did you just say?â
âI bet youâre gonna do something boring like-â
âNo before that.â
âWhatâs the first thing youâre gonnaâ do if they save your world?â You question, his sudden interest in your words takes you by surprise as he has been vacant from your conversation.
The breaks suddenly shriek as the car comes to a stop.
âWhat do you mean if?â
âIâŚâ
âYou said they could fix my world. Undo it all, is what you fucking said.â
âI mean I think they can!â
âYou fucking liar.â The edge to The Wolverineâs voice is terrifying. The realisation trickles down your spine, Logan has been nice to you all this time, youâre finally meeting The Wolverine.
âI didnât lie!â For some reason youâre ashamed of your deceit, youâve murdered countless people and still, youâve felt less remorse. Loganâs eyes pin you in your seat as disgust clouds his face. It hurts more than you can fathom. âNot exactly, I think they can fix your world! â I needed your help and if you killed Wade there was no hope for my universe!â
âI donât give a flying fuck about your universe!â He spits your way; his hands are gripping the wheel in what seems like an effort to keep his cool.
âI know, but I do!â You cry back at him. âYou know how to save the world, youâre the fucking Wolverine! I know how to kill people, but this hero shit, this isnât me!â
âHa! No shit.â There is pure hate in the manâs eyes as he stares back at you.
âPlease, youâre Logan. Whether youâre the worst one or not - Youâre still better than me.â
âGet out of the fucking car.â The words come from between clenched teeth and are filled with warning.
âNo â fuck you.â Your rage breaks the banks to meet Loganâs. Perhaps itâs the guilt, maybe itâs the fear for Wade but something within you snaps at his constant bad temper. âIt was an educated guess and a fucking reasonable one at that, get the fuck over yourself you big bird wannabe geriatric fucker! â
He slams his palms on the steering wheel, his nose flares and his teeth clamp together. Â âFuck me? Fuck you â you sad pathetic excuse for a side-kick. No wonder the X-Men wouldnât take you, and theyâll take fuckinâ anyone. You are a ridiculous, immature, moron who spends her days following around a fucking clown to avoid facing the reality that you are no one. I have never met a sadder, more attention starved asshole in my entire life. You were right about one thing, youâre no fucking hero.â
Its shameful the way your stomach drops, and your eyes involuntarily begin to tear. To hear your hero say the words youâve thought about yourself whilst laying awake at night. Itâs a knife to the gut.
âNothing to fucking say, huh, Angel?â The use of Wadeâs nickname for you is like sandpaper on your skin, it rubs you the wrong fucking way.
âI am going to hurt you now.â Your voice is barely a broken whisper.
âYouâre going to hurt â âHis faux chortle is cut short by a swift punch to his face. Youâre worried you may have been overzealous with your swing when his nose begins bleeding. The Wolverine is stunned for only a moment before he grabs the back of your neck and proceeds with smashing your face into the dashboard and those concerns are quickly put to bed.
The old fucker is strong, but you donât think heâll kill you, yet another educated wish.
âNot so tough nowâŚâ He shouts as the radio channels change with your skull. Pulling a knife from your leg strap you embed it in his thigh and pull the lever to recline your seat whilst heâs distracted, luckily, youâre not there when he swings for retribution.
Though one of his fucking steak knives catches your upper arm slicing through the leather. Warm blood trickles down your arm, staining the beige interior of the poor Honda.Â
Your legs are your strongest asset, so when he attempts to restrain you with the seatbelt, you are presented with your window of opportunity. You wrap them around his neck as you pivot your hips slamming the Wolverine headfirst into the metal of the door. Once, twice, three times - on the fourth he lands a fist to your gut, luckily, he has retracted his claws.
If he was willing to kill you, you wouldnât stand a chance.
Youâre winded struggling to catch your breath from the gut punch, but you manage pull the knife from his thigh that is nestled between your legs and thrust it into his neck, you aim for the spot youâd fantasied about kissing before heâd torn your character apart piece by piece, now you just want to bathe in his fucking blood.
It was the pain that instantaneously made his claws extend. Heâs quick to move them, though he slices through the sides of your suit as he buries them in the chair behind you. Your ribs are a bloodied mess though you donât care, in a few hours theyâll be good as new.
Logan has seized the opportunity and has your arms pinned to your sides, his blood has cooled a little more than yours, he doesnât seem to want to murder you over an argument.
Perhaps heâs more well-adjusted than yourself, that thought alone should concern you, except it just enrages you further.
âYou stupid fuckin-âThe Wolverine starts admonishing you, before you swing your head forward and headbutt him.
Yes.
You really do that.
You headbutt the man with the adamantium fucking skeletonâ at full strength. Its sheer dumb luck you donât crack your own skull in the processâ maybe Logan was right, you are fucking dumb.
âFucking fuck!â You cry grabbing your forehead and writhing. Noone wins with a headbutt, except Logan apparently.
âFucking stop that.â Your writhing has pushed your core against his crotch, and he is already packing quite the heat at what feels like half-mast. He grabs your hips to stop your movement, but it only seems to push you closer. âStop fucking moving.â
The constant arousal youâve felt since meeting him returns in double time, Loganâs nostrils flare and his eyes darken. Itâs debased and youâre ashamed that you want him, you havenât stopped wanting him, despite the awful fucking words that left his mouth minutes ago.
âLike ⌠a little pain Wolvie?â
Its relief you feel, you think, when instead of answering or punching you in the face, he closes the gap.
The Wolverineâs claws retract, and he grabs at your chin. Loganâs mouth utterly devours your own, your front tooth clashes with his own as you push yourself upwards, you pull your knife out of his neck, catching his grunt of pain on your tongue as you begin licking your way down his thick throat.
The vein youâd spotted hours ago is throbbing freshly healed, you sink your canines into the flesh and its as good as youâd fucking imagine. His groan is utterly beast-like as he wraps his arms around you, pulling you flush against him.
The Wolverineâs throat tastes like salt and iron. Thick, tangy and warm on your tongue as you soothe the bite. It drives Logan wild, thrusting his hardened member against your warmth. One of his gloved hands rises to lock on the back of your neck to pull you into yet another earth-shattering kiss. Â His sharp hot tongue slides against your own, exploring the expanses of your mouth like its his to claim.
You bite at him again then, your teeth catching his bottom lip sharply. Logan groans into your mouth before you use every ounce of your enhanced strength to throw him backwards against the dashboard.
He is taken utterly by surprise as his head slams into the windscreen cracking the glass with a grunt. When he looks your way Loganâs eyes are blackened with desire, he is utterly wild.
Slowly as if afraid to make any sudden moves, you unzip your combat boots, your eyes never leaving his. One boot and then the next.
You thank the TVAâs tailor for making your suit a two piece as you shuffle backwards into the backseat, pushing the thick leather down your legs all whilst maintaining eye contact with the beast leaning against the dashboard.
âYou sure you want this Darlinâ?â
âDarlinâ?â You question mockingly, your voice lowering to imitate his own, as you wantonly spread your legs, your bare leg resting next to the headrest. Only a pair of black cotton panties separate him from your most intimate parts and his eyes are locked on your clothed core. âa second ago it was âPathetic Moronâ to you.â
Your head tilts in question as his eyes lock back on your own, you think perhaps for a moment something akin to regret passes over his face, but youâve never been entirely comfortable with feelings, so you drop your hand into the waistband of your panties, youâve barely circled your opening with your pointer finger before heâs on you.
âThatâs my job, you fucking Moron.â He plunges two bare thick fingers into your heat. Gasping you throw your head back against the headrest, itâs a tight fit and its been a while but the slight burn eases some of the aching in your core. âYouâre fuckinâ soaking wet, you like it huh, bub? Making me bleed?â
Your grab his jaw, your nails digging into his flesh. âIâd like to bathe in-â He scissors his fingers finding that spot inside you and you let out an embarrassing noise, somewhere between a gasp and a moan. â-Your fucking blood⌠you mean motherfucker.â
Youâre an absolute goner when he starts rubbing your clit, after a day of foreplay your body seizes, and you grab at the nape of his neck trying to find something to anchor you down. But as fast as the build was you come tumbling down just as quickly, when he cruelly withdraws his hands.
âNo! - Wha- what the fuck?!â Youâre almost crying as your torn from the precipice.
Logan flips you over onto your stomach before you can complain any further, your face down on the filthy upholstery as he pulls your panties from your hips. You canât see him from this angle, though you can feel his warm hands tracing the globes of your ass.
You force your knees further apart, pushing your bare soaking pussy against the tight bulge of his yellow suit. If you had enough of your facilities about you, youâd be embarrassed that youâre currently rubbing your cunt against The Wolverine like a bitch in heat after heâd chewed you out only minutes ago.
Loganâs hand dip between your thighs, his fingers swirl along your hole, dragging your wetness along to your aching clit.
âYou think Iâd make it that easy?â He asks as he continues the journey back and forth. On the second pass he dips his finger inside of you for a fraction of a second before resuming its path. âWhat do you want, darlinâ?â
You werenât going to beg, in fact you bit your tongue to stop the traitorous words from forming, this man had already made you abandon most of your self-respect, he wasnât having this.
âLoganâŚâ At your breathy words the man leans forward, pressing his fabric covered cock into your ass as he folds his body over yours. One hand comes down next to your shoulder, the other explore your tits as he rocks himself into your throbbing core. Itâs the perfect storm as he nuzzles into your exposed throat but somehow you manage your words. âFuck me or donât, Iâm not begging, bub.â
He exhales through his nose in what you guess is equal parts amusement and annoyance, but youâre far beyond caring. He places a bite on the spot where your throat meets your shoulder as his body pulls back. Momentarily his hands leave your hips to deal with his own pants. You hear the clank of his belt hitting the car floor moments before you feel the head of his cock, running along your folds.
The head of his cock is thick, and it feels hot to the touch as he runs it along your slick. All of a sudden Logan pushes forward and sheathes himself inside of you with a single thrust.
You try your best to hold in your incoherent moans but to little avail as he pulls back before slamming full force back into you. If you were a human woman, your pelvis wouldâve shattered from the force of his hips against your ass, instead you gather your strength and push back, allowing him deeper. The both of you moan in unison at the depth he reaches.
You grab onto the foam of the seat, ripping through the fabric with your bare hands desperate for an anchor as Logan unforgivingly pounds into you from behind, once again he folds his body over yours, wrapping a palm around your clawed fingers.
â.â He grunts something incoherent into your ear as he picks up the pace, slamming into you repeatedly, slowly picking up his pace. Your core is positively aching as you throb around him, pulling him deeper within you. Â If you were expecting any further explanation, youâre sorely disappointed.
The wolverine pulls back, gripping at your hips keeping you still as he resumes his powerful strokes. Â Loganâs hand dips to your clit, rubbing quick circles sending you barrelling back towards your orgasm. As you begin to clench around him, he pulls your body upwards, his head brushing against the top of the car as he holds you against him his fingers never leaving your clit.
âCome on my cock, Angel.â Unable to stop yourself you clench around him, hearing him talk like that does something primal to you.
You fucking loved Loganâs mouth, you bet he ate pussy like a champion if he played the clit this fucking well.
You stopped fighting it and threw yourself from the cliff, shattering in his thick muscle veined arms as he held you up against him, his cock still viciously plundering your depths.
âYouâre so fucking tight.â He whispers against your neck whispers peppering it with bites.
Logan gives you a few moments to come down from your high before he resumes his punishing pace, you think perhaps youâve reached your limit of pleasure, that the threshold canât possibly be topped until he whispers into your ear in that gruff voice.
âWhat was it Wilson said? Filling all your holes?â The Wolverine asks, his eyes meet yours over your shoulder meaningfully, asking permission as he offers you his thumb. You merely moan your approval and wantonly draw his finger into your mouth, soaking the pad in saliva. Â
Logan yanks your head into a vicious kiss. Itâs a messy one, filled to the brim with need. The hand not currently locked on your neck holding your face to his, travels down your back, through the valley of your bodies. The pad of his pinky runs appreciatively over the globe of your ass, before his hand dips into the crease.
Loganâs thumb runs teasingly against the tight ring of muscle, itâs a foreign experience which makes you startle slightly.
âAnyone ever fucked you here?â He asks as he bites down your neck, delicately pushing you forward until your head rests on the backseat. You shake your head as your eyes close, his cock is buried balls deep within you as he plays with your asshole.
When his thumb finally breaches your tight hole just past the nail, he begins his thrusts once more. His cock fills your pussy from behind and suddenly you feel so fucking full, Its far too much for you.
âFuck⌠Logan.â You gasp almost on the verge of tears as pounds you into the back seat. It seems the ass play has gotten to him more than expected, as his pace has increases.
âWhere?â He asks breathless from the exertion as he pulls his thumbs from your ass and takes a handful of the meat on your hips.
âInsideâŚ. Please ⌠Logan.â You practically beg though youâll never admit it, his rhythm becomes stunted as his hips slam into the back of your thighs.
âGive me something tight to come in, Darlinâ.â Moaning at his words youâre eager to obey as you reach your hand between your own legs and rub mercilessly at your clit. The unforgiving pounding, the grunting and the fingers currently bruising your hips and the burning of your now vacant ass send you sailing over the edge.
You clamp down on him like a vice, groaning unable to hold back your whimpers anymore as he finally bites your neck and pumps his seed deep inside you as far as it can go. Logan grunts like a beast as he pulses deep inside of you.
Logan collapses beside you. Dents in the interior of the van you donât even remember making have appeared from where a stray elbow or knee has hit the metal in the throes of passion.
The Wolverine tucks his cock back in his suit. Ever the gentleman, he uses your black panties to wipe away the cum dripping from your thighs, you havenât got the heart to tell him that when youâre commando redressed in your suit that you can still feel him dripping from you, your pussy uncomfortably slick against the leather.
After dressing, the two of you sit in contemplative silence. Neither one of you has the emotional complexity to discuss what happened and neither one of you will accept fault for your argument that led to it, so, silence reigns.
The tension is sliced in two as Logan leans forward and pushes an errant lock of hair behind your ear in an act so goddamn endearing, you melt. You still wouldnât apologise for lying, because you didnât lie but you can meet him a quarter of the way.
âIâm sorry for calling you geriatric.â You whisper catching his eyes, a small spark of humour leaps into them, youâve seen more emotions from your hero in the past half an hour than you knew he was capable of.
âI shouldnât have-â Loganâs heartfelt apology is cut off by the lead of this goddamn story.
âWell, well, well. Would you look at this, My best friends, Ha! I get fucking kidnapped, an arm ripped off and youâre nowhere to be found? I thought donât worry Wade, they wonât leave you, Y/N/N will come around that corner any second."
Wade has appeared through the passenger side window; he looks a little worse for wear and has a childâs arm growing from his stump, its kind of gross to look at.
"What if Colossus had had his way with me? What then Y/N? I expect this from Wolvie, but not from you! No, no heroic rescue for old Deadpool. I have to save myself because you fuckers are too busy playing hide the adamantium bone! Â Thanks for nothing guys. Now the car has old man sex stank to it, as if this hunk of shit Honda could get any worse!â

"Tilia is a vest-wearing conservation dog that the 444-acre [Mequon] nature preserve relies on for vital conservation and restoration work.
The dogâs responsibilities include sniffing out invasive and endangered species in the prairies, forests, and wetlands of Mequon.
Conservation dogs have become more commonplace in wildlife organizations, tapping into their astonishing scent-detecting abilities.
âDogs in general already have up to 200 million olfactory sensors,â Cory Gritzmacher, the director of operations at the nature preserve, told Wisconsin Life.
Humans, on the other hand, have about 5 million.
â[Dogs are] already set up and designed for scent detection,â Gritzmacher added. âItâs really just finding a dog thatâs motivated, that wants to do it on a regular basis and is excited to do it.â
Tilia was the pup for the job.

One of her main roles is to detect wild parsnip, an invasive species that staff removes once it is found on the property.
Compared to humans, Tilia can find parsnip in its first year, while itâs still close to the ground and camouflaged by other plants. This is vital, since parsnip will start to spread rapidly by the time it reaches its second season in the preserve.Â
Studies show that the estimated damage caused by invasive species has cost the United States around $120 billion annually, as it impacts agriculture, recreational industries, and wildlife management.Â
By catching invasive species that take hold of local flora and fauna early, Tilia achieves something no humans can.
âThe best trained volunteers or staff in the world wonât even be able to find what a canine can,â Gritzmacher said. âThatâs the pretty impressive part of it. And who doesnât want to go to work with a dog?â ...
Tilia began training as a puppy, and now nearly seven years old, sheâs a pro at scent detection â which all started with some treats hidden in cardboard boxes...
âAs she continues to hit on the correct scent, then she gets rewarded. So, sheâs going to get paid again. We do our work, we get paid. She does her work, she gets paid.â
Tilia can also spot Blue-Spotted and Easter Tiger Salamanders, which are endangered in the area. Her other scents include Wood Turtle and Garlic Mustard.

Of course, her workload remains balanced with time off. Her official owner is the director of Mequon Nature Preserve, who is happy to embrace her as the family dog when sheâs not out sniffing.
But Gritzmacher, who trains and works alongside Tilia, adores her, not only for her companionship, but for the miracles she is able to work as an asset to Wisconsinâs conservationists.
âCanines are going to start to play a huge role in the conservation field just because of their amazing detection skills,â Gritzmacher said, âespecially when resources are limited, staff is limited and you have to search potentially thousands of acres or miles.â
In fact, Tilia was joined by a partner in crime a few years ago: Timber, another chocolate lab who is actually the offspring of Tiliaâs sister.
By following in her pawprints, Timberâs âpowerful nose will be a key toolâ in the preserveâs âland restoration efforts,â according to its website.
âFor years, scientists have tried to replicate the power and efficiency of the canine nose,â Mequon Nature Preserve adds on a webpage for Tilia and Timber.
âThe results keep coming back the same: The canine nose is second to none. Coupled with an insatiable desire to work and serve, Tilia and Timber help us find things humans often canât.â"

Baking cookies for F1 drivers after they give you a good wienering(sex)⌠￟



(Thank you tik tok for this idea & @turcott3 for helping)
| OSCAR PIASTRI | honestly heâs confused when you present him with the tray of cookies, thinks theyâre for his win but when you tell them what theyâre actually for he blushes bright red and giggles.
âReally? For giving you good sex?â
But heâs still very appreciative and makes sure you see that.
| LEWIS HAMILTON | Smirky but finds it amusing, pulls you into a sweet kiss and ends up quickly giving you a reason to bake more.
âHoney I think youâll need another bag of flour by the end of the week.â
Your home begins to smell like baked goods all the time and anytime heâs craving your cookies he knows what he has to do.
| CHARLES LECLERC | Heâs slightly confused but honored. He giggles when you tell him what theyâre for and while he does find it slightly silly it warms his heart. Pulls you into a sweet kiss before he eats one and praises you for the amazing taste.
âAlmost as delicious as you mon amor.â
| LANDO NORRIS | He gets cocky but also finds it hilarious, definitely throws out some dirty remarks that have you blushing, he uses this to his advantage though and always asks what he can do to get more.
âSo how many do I get if I get you pregnant??â
| MAX VERSTAPPEN | He is severely confused, he doesnât understand what you mean or why you would make him cookies for giving you what you deserve but he eats them nonetheless and tells you how delicious they are.
âI donât understand Schat, why did you bake me cookies for fucking you good? Thatâs what Iâm supposed to do.â
| LOGAN SARGEANT | Blushes like a school boy, he doesnât know what to say at first but composes himself and thanks you. Gives you a sweet kiss before eating one, he ends up having the plate gone by the end of the day and he makes his way into your shower later that night with one thing on his mind.
âCan you make snickerdoodles next time?â
| DANIEL RICCIARDO | laughs his ass off for a solid 60 seconds before composing himself and pulling you in for a kiss. He thanks you a thousand times before picking one up for you two to share but quickly gets turned on by the way your lips skim his finger as he feeds it to you and next thing you know youâre bent over the counter. An hour later he comes in to find the oven set at 350 and you whipping up more cookies for him.
âWhat flavor you makinâ this time?â
| CARLOS SAINZ | He gets so fucking cocky, the second you tell him what you made them for his smirk overtakes his face. He thanks you properly with a quickie before cleaning you up and getting you cuddled up on the couch as he heats up the cookies and gets you both a glass of milk.
âI could get use to these.â
| LANCE STROLL | Heâs confused for a good 15 seconds before he starts laughing. Heâs very thankful though and honored that you thought the sex was good enough to bake him his favorite cookies. Gives you a sweet âthank you baby.â With a kiss before he splits one between the two of you.
| ALEX ALBON | It amuses him, youâd mentioned doing it to him but he didnât think you actually would until he walks in to find you plating them. He knew what they were for right away and couldnât contain his laughter, soon your both bent over laughing.
Once theyâre cooled down he devours half of the plate and praises your skill.

little miss wingwoman (3) - ln4
You meet the Norris family, Penelope drops by for a surprise visit, and luckily Christmas Eve goes off without a hitch. Thanks to your amazing skills in everything that comes with being a nanny.
warnings/notes: I, once again, am posting christmas after christmas and i don't care <3 happy hanukkah by the way!! also shout out to my brother who inspired the whole 'athena falling asleep' bit here bc he did this w my baby cousin on christmas eve
(prev | next)

Lando is welcoming in his siblings while you're in the process of finishing up a quick little Christmas Eve dinner. They'd requested nothing crazy, so you'd scoured the internet to find a simple chicken dish, and had Lando go out to buy some games to play with the family. His siblings had all been on the same flight, but with a little rain systems coming through Monaco, his parents flight had been delayed a few hours.
Meaning, you got to be eased into meeting your roommate of barely a weeks family, and spending the holidays with them.
As you finally set down some tin foil over the last few sides, sliding them in the oven on a preheat setting to keep everything warm until Lando's parents arrived, Oliver and Flo poke around the corner to look at you.
You don't notice them studying the way you flow through Lando's kitchen, you're too busy counting over the names Lando had told you--Oliver, Flo, and Cisca, his siblings, you think in that order with Lando ahead of Flo. Then, Savannah, Lando's sister-in-law, and his two nieces Mila and Athena. His parents, Cisca and Adam, though you can't imagine calling them anything other than Mr and Mrs. Norris.
"Oh, guys," Lando's tone is full of smiles, proudly waving an arm to you as you turn around and discard your oven mitts onto the counter, "This is my roommate, Yn."
"Ah!" Oliver smiles, Athena in his hands sraring up at you with wonder in her eyes, "This is the roommate I've heard so much about."
"Oh, god, I hope all good things?" You step around Lando to properly greet each sibling, Savannah, and the girls.
"Lando talks about you a lot." Cisca teases softly, looking over at her brother, who flushed and quickly asked what everyone wanted to drink--safely deterring the conversation. Above everyones scurrying heads into the kitchen, you meet Lando's eyes, and find you can't look away as he crinkles up in a smile before turning to find cups for everyone.
A bit later, Lando runs out to go collect his parents from Nice's airport, leaving you with the siblings. Mila and Athena have taken to exploring the living room under their parents watchful eye as you scour for a good Christmas movie for them--settling on the Grinch after a while, just to have it on in the background. You can tell Athena's getting ready for a nap, but with so much excitement and noise, she seems to be struggling to settle down. Savannah seems a bit flustered, so you take a seat with her on the couch while Flo and Cisca sneak some cookies in the kitchen and gossip.
"So," Oliver starts, "We spent so long catching up with Lando, I never had a chance to ask anything about you."
"Oh, Sorry!" Savannah calls, turning to place a hand on your knee, "Don't want you to feel left out!"
"Don't apologize, it's alright! He's your brother and you said, Savannah, the last time you saw him was Goodwood, which was--what, July?" You say, watching as Cisca and Flo come to the living room, sitting down with their nieces and their toys by the big windows. Savannah offering the girls a thankful smile for taking them off her hands for the time being.
"Yeah, it's been a while." Flo hums, "And Cis and I didn't even see him at Goodwood, we saw him at Silverstone."
"He's so busy with racing, I see why but I still worry for him. He's still just the boy he was when we were young and running amuck through the woods in the middle of nowhere. He had no friends back then, and I worry he isolates himself here too, just blames it on being busy." Oliver leans back, running a hand across his head. You can see the worry for a baby brother he's watched grow clear in his eyes, and Savannah soothes a hand across his shoulders in comfort.
You hum softly, "He's got Max. And Oscar, Charles... Carlos, Alex and George, though I guess George is in London now... a lot of the drivers live close--we actually bought them presents for Christmas. He's got all of Quadrant too."
"And you," Flo prompts, looking up from where Athena tries to grab onto her hair.
"Yeah," you breathe out, turning to Oliver, "And me."
"How'd you meet?" Savannah asks and you smile.
"Max Verstappen, his 'bonus daughter' Penelope is the girl I nanny. I've worked for Kelly since Penelope was maybe three or four months, actually. Just an extra set of hands for her, but now I'm sort of like a housekeep? I watch the apartment when they're gone, cook, clean, help them keep track of everything--the two of them are also so busy." You laugh softly, watching as Athena uses the table to toddle her way over to her parents, Savannah picking up the sleepy toddler and laying her on her chest.
"But, with their baby on the way, the room I was living in is turning into a nursery. They didn't want to move, especially with a whole baby coming, so they helped me find a new place to live. Luckily, I knew Lando... kinda... we never really spoke much before but Penelope adores him so I've been out with Penelope at races or even in Monaco, and run into him."
Savannah watches as Athena scoots out of her hold and climbs across the couch, the curious toddler now taking up space in your lap as you wrap up your explanation, and a place a hand on her back, "So, Lando let me move in. I've pretty much transformed his entire apartment in exchange for the rent he's covering for me."
"I was going to say, it looks a lot better than the last time I was here." Oliver chuckles, Savannah countering with, "Yes, it does. A woman's touch was needed for sure."
"Lando kept asking us all about how to live with a girl," Cisca looks over her shoulder, watching as Flo and Mila move to join you on the couch. Little Athena snuggling into the warm of your hold as you move back.
"I told him it was just like living with sisters," Oliver rolls his eyes, "but he was insistent there was a way to do it wrong."
You laugh softly, imaging the way that he had probably begged for some sort of advice over the phone with his siblings, gently rocking a fussy Athena--who has been refusing her nap since she'd gotten into the apartment almost two hours ago now.
You speak softly, to keep the girl from waking up as she nearly is sleeping, "There really isn't, and I've been moving around so much my whole life I don't really have a set way to live. I kinda just adapt."
Before you can say anything else, the front door opens, and Lando announces he's back. Savannah lifts Athena, who whines, clinging to your shirt, and you shake her off, "I can take her, if it's okay."
"Sure, if it's fine. I wouldn't wanna wake her so close to her falling asleep. Athena loves to cuddle, she's a clinger," Savannah laughs softly, brushing her daughters wild curly hair back. You nod, holding her the way Savannah instructs--missing when Penelope used to be this tiny in your arms.
Lando's parents--Adam and Cisca, are happily talking with their children when you round the corner into the kitchen. Everyone turns with your presence, smiling at the sight of Athena curled in your arms, Mrs. Norris audibly aweing at the scene as you smile.
"Hi, it's really lovely to meet you both," You say softly, stepping over so they can give you hugs and greet their granddaughter who refuses to come out of the comfort she'd found nestled in your chest.
"I'll get the food out," Lando says, "I imagine you're all starving,"
"God, please." Flo whines, Oliver going to help his brother. You linger with the Norris parents in the hall, smiling softly as Athena lets out little snores against the warm fabric of your sweater. Savannah long gone after being dragged off by Mila.
Mrs. Norris moves into the kitchen, laughing as she scolds her sons for stealing bits of food while they bring everything out. The stack of bags and gifts flow down the hall now, the jackets and shoes overflowing the racks, and you can't help but smile at the liveliness of the once empty apartment.
"You're a real charmer," Adam says after a second and your attention is drawn to Mr. Norris. He grins, "Haven't seen Lando this organized in years."
You laugh softly, rubbing a soothing hand up and down Athena's back, "It's the least I could do for him, considering he won't let me pay rent. He's been really kind to let me live here."
"That's Lando for ya," Adam looks at his son in the kitchen, helping Mila get seated at the table, "He'd give you the skin off his back if he could."
As if sensing you both looking at him, Lando's head perks up, scowling as he comes over. He takes his father's jacket out of his hands and urges him to go get a plate of the food you'd 'slaved over' making all day in the kitchen. You can't help but giggle as he shoos away his father's knowing smile and wave as he goes to join his wife and kids.
"Thanks for saving this whole holiday," Lando looks over at you, catching the way you're already looking at him. A soft smile gracing your lips as you sway the toddler in your arms.
"Your family is lovely," you reply softly, "I'm glad I could do something for them."
Lando's quiet for a moment, the both of you just watching eachother. Turning back when Flo and Cisca start cracking up over some teasing thing Mrs. Norris is saying as Oliver scowls and rebukes whatever she's saying.
"Do you want a plate?" Lando says, "I can get mine last."
"No no, wouldn't want to wake Athena. I can always heat it up after she wakes." You wave a hand, and Lando nods, stepping closer to wipe a crumb off your cheek and brush a piece of hair back into place before Flo calls him over. You wave him on and he goes, making a spectacle about making his way back to the group.
Slowly, you make your way back into the living room, slowly sinking down on the couch and getting comfortable with Athena still snoring in your arms. And as the Norris' carry on in the kitchen, you can help but lay your head back on the cushions, cuddling in to the comfiest position you can find.
You fall asleep around the point Martha May announces her love for the Grinch, and right before Flo brings out Uno for the group at the table to play.
Lando comes over about twenty minutes later, pausing when he sees you knocked out. The rest of the family peeking around the corner as Lando grabs a blanket from the chair in the corner and walks over to where you are--Athena still snuggling into your hold. He gently drapes the blanket over the two of you, grabbing a pillow to lay under your head so your neck isn't killing you in the morning, and just takes a pause to sit next to you.
His eyes travel down your hair, to your closed eyes, parted lips, the soft breaths that leave you. The way Athena has tucked herself against your chest like she just knows you're safety, that you know how to take care of her. He lifts the blanket a little higher, resists the urge to press a chaste kiss to your forehead, and stands.
No one moves fast enough for him to not catch them staring.
"Looked like you were gonna kiss her for a second," His father chimes. Lando feels heat rise to his cheeks as his siblings laugh and he just waves away their comments as he comes back to play the game with them.
When Athena stumbles in to cuddle her mom about thirty minutes later, he peeks out to see you still asleep on the couch and tilts his head. Oliver leaning on the wall leaning into the living room as Lando steps forward, tucks his arms underneath you and carefully lifts you. It's not graceful by any means, but when your eyes flutter and you settle in as he holds his breath, Oliver bites his lip to keep himself from laughing at Lando.
"I'll get the door." Oliver says, nodding his head to where the spare bedroom is. His whole family pretends not to see him nearly whack your head into the wall when he brings you into your room and lays you on the bed. Mrs. Norris does come to ensure her son has you tucked in properly, with the blinds lowered to block out the setting sun as you curl up in your bed.
"Poor thing, she's absolutely knackered." She hums, waving Oliver out of the room as Lando sheepishly rubs his neck, walking over to her.
"She cooked all day, and we've spent the week decorating everything," his voice is soft as he looks over at your sleeping form in the bed, before his mother pulls him out of the room to shut the door.
"Well, she did a wonderful job." She winks knowingly at him, earning a shy laugh from Lando as she brings him back over to the table to keep playing games.

You do manage to get up and freshen up around nine, after his family has left to sleep off their jetlag. Lando's sitting on the couch with--surprisingly to you, Penelope.
"Max dropped her off, he and Kelly have dinner with their parents and P was supposedly exhausted." Lando pokes the girls cheek, but you can see she's clearly wide awake, sheepishly smiling up at you as you chuckle to yourself.
"I'm sure she was," You chime, sitting down at the counter as Penelope climbs up to sit next to you, leaning on you and looking up at you through her long lashes.
"I just didn't wanna go." Penelope admits softly, "All everyone's been talking about is the baby. I don't care about the stupid baby, I wish it was just me again, and I didn't have to fight this little thing in my Mommy's belly for some attention."
You hum, rubbing a hand up and down Penelope's back. She'd been complaining to you about the baby since you'd gotten back to Monaco, and you'd brought it up to Max and Kelly already. From the time spent in their apartment with them, you knew it wasn't their fault Penelope was feeling this way--after her first complaint. They'd both apologized to her, and explained it to her, and after that Penelope had been fine for a while.
But having every single person in your extended family fawning over the unborn baby in your mothers stomach--buying him tons of gifts and clothes, things Penelope was used to be doted onto her, the shift had to feel weird.
"Max and Kelly still love you," it's Lando who chimes from the couch, groaning as he stands up and stretched out his shoulders, "It's been hard for them with the baby coming, and you know how much the baby needs."
Penelope nods and you pout. Usually, Christmas Eve was reserved for the Verstappen-Piquets to spend the entire night together. But it seemed every one of their traditions had been tossed aside.
"How about this," you say softly, "I have some stuff left over to bake. Why don't you, Lando, and I make some cookies for Santa, hm? We can leave them out at your apartment when I drop you off."
Penelope does light up at that and agrees, so as Lando helps her get supplies, you finish shoveling your dinner into your mouth before standing to help them with baking.
By the end of it, after Penelope's roped you and Lando into a flour fight you know is going to be a disaster to clean up, you and Lando end up carrying up a sleeping Penelope and a plate of cookies. Max laughs softly at the sight of the three of you covered in flour, and Kelly thanks you both for staying up later to watch her.
When you return to Lando's apartment, the two of you elect to finish watching whatever movie is playing on the tv. And the quiet moment, broken by occasionally showing each other something on your phones or asking questions about this absolutely absurd 80s christmas movie, just fills the home with a sense of warmth you aren't expecting to feel.
It almost makes you not want to go to bed, but alas, the Norris' are coming back over in the morning, so you two duck off to bed eventually--hesitating to part due to the invisible magnet that holds you close.

Dilf/Husband!Rafe who could spend hours between your thighs đ
đ (thank you to my babe @rafesthroatbaby for being my muse for this!)
He may have been in his thirties, but he didnât shy away when it came to eating pussy. When he did eat you out, he took his time and didnât want any interruptions. Heâd make sure the kids were gone, leaving the house empty so that you could moan as loud as you wanted while he made you feel good. Heâd spend all day spoiling you, new Chanel still in its box, full set fresh, a beautiful dinner out on the water. He gave you the best because you deserved it. He certainly wasnât easy to put up with and you were such a goddamn good mom, an amazing wife, and he loved to give you everything he possibly could.
Heâd make sure you were comfortable, admiring your curves as you laid naked on the plush mattress. Heâd settle between your thighs, spreading you open as he looked at the gorgeous view of your cunt right in front of him. âSuch a beautiful fucking pussy.â He mumbled, his blue eyes then glancing up at you. It was a look that always sent a shiver down your spine and made your stomach flutter.
As soon as his tongue got his first taste of the night he was devouring you whole or at least thatâs what it felt like. His striking cerulean eyes never left yours as he watched you come undone from his skillful mouth. Your expensive manicure would dig into his soft hair, holding him still as he sucked greedily on your aching clit. His deep groans vibrated against your soaked core, your sweet taste leaking onto his tongue non stop.
âR-rafe baby⌠shitâŚâ You moaned loudly, curling your pretty toes against his muscled back. The way he ate pussy was a gift, and was all for you to have. His nose rubbed perfectly against your clit as he buried his tongue inside you, making you cry out beautifully.
Your lower stomach was on fire, your breath catching in your throat as you felt your orgasm starting to approach quickly. He let out a breathless laugh, tongue coming out to lick at your swollen pearl before sucking it into his mouth again. âCum all over my fucking tongue baby. You know how I love that sweet shit.â He spoke low between taking sweet nips at your clit.
You threw your head back against the fluffy pillows, squeezing your thighs together as you cried out his name through an intense orgasm. He was quick to make you remember who was still in charge here and yanked them back open. âKeep your fuckinâ legs open, you know better when Iâm trying to taste you.â He told you firmly, before the sound of his mouth taking a thirsty gulp made your head spin all over again.

makeup artist!arminâŚthat is all đŤ
đ: black fem hairstylist!reader, friends to lovers, fluff to smut, praise, heâs also bi, alcohol use, switch!armin, choking, finger sucking, oral (a eating) missionary, cumshot, calls reader babe and my love
đď¸: Iâm trying out something a lilâ different and trying to actually make my drabbles short so I hope yâall like it. Also I know like 3 of you might actually see this tonight but posting anyways bc Iâm bored
ââżâââĄÂ°Ëâ§âżâ§Ë°ââââżââââżâââĄÂ°Ëâ§âżâ§Ë°ââââżââ
you never thought youâd see makeup artist!armin ever again..in the flesh at least. Itâd been three years since you, him and twenty other attendees of one of the countryâs most elite cosmetology schools had graduated as licensed beauticians. A majority of you had gone on to do extraordinary things with your newfound certificationsâŚsome working for prestigious salons, others starting their own businesses and continuing ones they were running illegally. But you and Armin? Leagues all on your own! Of course, the same could have been said when you were in school together. Seemingly attached at the hip and matching in both skills and wit. makeup artist!armin was naturally the talk among the class. The only male in a room full of gorgeous girlsâŚchatting and keeping up with the conversations as if he were one of you. Offering advice on boyfriends and husbands, reciting the lyrics to every female rap song that played from the salon floorâs speakers as you all practiced balayage and full sets whilst the instructor watched. makeup artist!armin was a natural..able to analyze a face and turn anyone into the most beautiful version of themselves. Of course, it left much speculation on his orientation but when the question arose, his response was: âI like what I like, thatâs all.â
with his fluffy blonde locks, warm blue eyes, scattered tattoos, including the pieces on his neck and handsâŚfingernails always donned with nail polish and sporting jewelry of some form, he was a dream. But it was him who was enamored with (y/n)..his girl to anyone who asked. Something you always figured to be a lighthearted inside joke, considering the number of empty, flirtatious passes you made at one another. Pretending to kiss, even allowing him to grasp your throat in the process because heâd only follow it up with some effeminate remark before you both broke into a laugh. âArmin moveee, you play too much.â âBabeee, câmere. You didnât have a problem last night. Why are you being mean to me?â But makeup artist!armin wasnât interested in playing games anymore..especially when he saw you all over Instagram, going viral for your amazing work. Laying wigs, coloring, finger waves, silk presses..the works. You were the best of the best and people were dying to get a seat in your chair. Including an influencer with tons of followers and the money to burn, looking to get done up by the cityâs finest for a club appearance. What you didnât expect was the person traipsing behind her to be makeup artist!armin..looking even better than he had before!
âItâs been a while, my love. How are you? I see you look sexy as always.â
Hugging instantly as the excitement over took the both of you. makeup artist!armin couldnât keep his eyes off of you as you styled the influencerâs hair, watching you two laugh and chop it up..joining in on the fun occasionally. Turns out he had been working with some notorious clientele, using his talents to earn quite a pretty penny and make a name for himself in the beauty sector. But the real conversation wasnât done until after hoursâŚwhen heâd finish up with your guest and you were closing up shop. The two of you would down some of the leftover shots you had with the client as part of her pregame whilst he decided to give you a complementary beat for old times sakeâŚ
talking about life and what it had been like since you left the academy. Divulging in juicy gossip about friends and old peers alike, work and what it was like having your entire catalogue on display for social media. Of course, what makeup artist!armin and yourself truly wanted to know was if there was a special someone around..
âMe? Nah, me and my ex been done. I donât have time for dating..the money is my only love nowadays.â
âI feel that. All I do is work and go home.â
but he was hoping to change that last sentiment. Dressed in his black button down and slit jeans with silver bands on his fingers..heâd turn your face towards him as the guise of brushing on your highlight
âYâknow I really missed this, (y/n). Iâve been watching you and Iâm so proud of what youâve done. Youâve worked hard.â âThank you, Armin..youâre always so sweet.â âWell duh, Iâve already told you, youâre my girl..â
makeup artist!armin couldnât hold back any longerâŚbridging the gap of space between you two as the bright lights hung overhead. He'd confess that heâd thought about you everyday and wished that the two of you had kept contact. It was as if all of the sexual tension and feelings that the two of you had been harboring were just seconds from spilling over. Which only in turn led to you moving to the back of your salon, lips crashing together and tongues shoved into each otherâs mouth as he mounted you onto a nearby countertop. Completely forgetting his masterpiece heâd painted on your face.
âArminnn..â
âShhh..itâs okay, babe. I know..you donât have to tell me. I know you better than anyone.â
a statement that rang true when heâd pull you into a kiss yet again and clutch your throat as heâd done in a joking manner many times before. A movement they elicited a smile from you both.
âYou still like that, huh? So nasty..â
âYou said it..you know me better than anyone, baby.â
from your lips to your neck, heâd mark you with pecks, licking and nibbling at your ear as he whispered lecherous things; from how good you looked in the bodycon dress you were wearing to how he needed to hold it up while pounding you from the back..
âMmmm..see, there you go playing witâ me.â
âSpread your legs for me, baby and youâll see how much Iâm joking..â
leaving you with a heavy pat to the ass as he scooped you into his grasp and parted your thick thighs. Obviously much more fit than he was when youâd last saw him. makeup artist!armin tugged down the top of your dress, exposing your breasts as he planted a hand into your tummy..peeling your panties back with his teeth before diving into that dripping center. Wasting no time in lapping on your clit, gliding a finger or two in and sucking on your folds as if it were his first meal in months. He certainly was no stranger to eating pussy..regardless of everyoneâs opinions on his sexuality!
âF-fuckkkk..Arminnn..â Pushing his head and shoulders back whilst still grinding on his mouth.
âIâm sorry, babe. What is it that you want? Because youâre realllly confusing me..do you want me to stop..or should I keep eating this little pussy until you come all over my face?â Laughing as he spat into your entrance and continued lapping. (Y/N)âs legs began to quiver, breath shallow and chest heaving as your eyes rolled back..youâd never felt anything remotely euphoric as this. He knew each of your spots, what made you tick and how to pleasure you. He navigated your body as well as an eyeshadow palette and like always, he wasnât done until he was satisfied..
âAwww, babyyâdonât cry. I know it feels good but youâre gonna ruin your pretty makeup. Here..suck on my fingers.â That soft yet dominant taking over as he shoved two digits in your mouth. What followed was a trail of saliva and his tongue breaching your puckering lower entrance. Which nearly caused you to shoot through the roof.
âLook at that..now Iâm in all your pretty holes, babe..Iâve waited so long to do this. Fuck..you taste amazing.â
youâd whimper and writhe around, grasping at the marble counters as that orgasm neared..heâd push those fingers in and out until splatters of warm juices hit his chin. âSorry, my love..I hate to stop you butââ unbeknownst, he had been stroking himself through his boxers and was ready to let you get the real thing.
âIf you want to come anymore, itâll be on this dick. I really need to fuck you.â His voice was much deeper than before and you didnât hesitate to let him inside. Pinning your legs back to the vanity, makeup artist!armin tapped that head and shaft against your folds before gently gliding in, keeping your eyes fixated on each other with his hand still around your neck. That fat cock splitting open your wet folds.
âShitâŚyour pussyâs so warm, babe. God, whyâd you keep this from me?â But you were too in awe to answer..completely stuck on how big he was and how well he wielded it. Slowly stroking and rubbing your clit with the opposite hand. You were fixated on his gaze and sweet words, listening to him to praise you whilst he resided balls deep inside of you.
âOh my goshâŚ.âs so fucking big. Fucking me so good..â whimpering and barely able to fork coherent sentences. makeup artist!armin would chuckle softly as he watched it slide in and out, the bulge appearing when he sped up. âDamn, babe. I love this look on youâŚbut I love even more how I look inside of you.â Pounding you into the vanity with his lips melded to yours.
âAhhhhâŚyes, baby! Right there..âm gonna come.â
âI told you, if you want to, itâs gotta be on me.â makeup artist!armin would continue thrusting until he drew more splashes out of that cunt, making you squirt all over his torso and the countertop. It wasnât long until he too was reaching his own climatic peak, burrowed over you with his face buried into the crook of your neck as he called out your name..whining about how badly he missed you.
âOh God I missed you..I missed you so bad. Can I come for you, my love? Please? Iâve been so good..I waited all this time just for you..â
and it was no question that youâd welcome it..waiting patiently as he pulled out of you reluctantly. Heâd spray those thick ropes of cum all over your tummy and even catch your face..
makeup artist!armin reveled in his latest and most prized creation yet. Laughing as those fluffy lashes swatted off remnants of his seed..droplets staining the glossy nude lip heâd just finished.
âI need a kiss after that. Câmere..â âYeah, I agree.â
makeup artist!armin had long since dreamed of what heâd say and do once you guys reconnected. He was nervous, afraid that youâd reject his feelings but it was no longer a secret. That mounting love that had been festering inside of you both had exploded into a blaze of passion that couldnât be extinguished any time soon. And now that he was back in your life, youâd never be apart again.

A Growing Circle of Bats (wrong number)
Read the previous posts to know what happend before Masterpost
Danny was sitting cross-legged on his bed, sipping a soda while reading over one of Timâs million texts about ghost technology. Jason had texted earlier to warn him that âTech Boyâs enthusiasm can be dangerous,â and Danny was starting to believe it.
Then his phone buzzed with a message from yet another new number.
Unknown Number: Hey, are you Danny?
Danny groaned, setting his drink down.
Danny: ...Yes? Whoâs asking now?
Unknown Number: Iâm Dick. Jason and Tim wouldnât shut up about you, so I thought Iâd say hi.
Danny blinked.
Danny: Wait, let me guess. Another one of the Bat-family?
Dick: Guilty as charged. Iâm the oldest, so I have to make sure Jason and Tim arenât harassing you too much. Theyâre... persistent.
Danny: Thatâs one way to put it.
Dick: So whatâs your deal? Jason said something about ghosts and a billionaire villain?
Danny: Ugh, yeah. Thatâs the gist of it. My life is basically one long supernatural sitcom, featuring a half-ghost me, an undead billionaire weirdo, and a lot of property damage.
Dick: Sounds wild. Do you ever get a break?
Danny: Not really. Ghosts donât exactly take vacations.
While Danny and Dick were chatting, Tim and Jason were having their own conversation.
âDid you seriously give Dick Dannyâs number?â Jason asked, staring at his phone.
âWhy not?â Tim replied, not looking up from his laptop. âHeâs part of the family. Besides, Danny could use more normal conversations, and Dickâs the most sociable.â
Jason snorted. âDickâs about as ânormalâ as a flying acrobat who fights crime in spandex can get.â
Back on Dannyâs end, the conversation had taken an unexpected turn.
Dick: So, are you into acrobatics? Or martial arts?
Danny: Uh, I mean, Iâve fought a lot of ghosts. Does that count?
Dick: Definitely. Fightingâs a skill. Jason said youâve got powers too?
Danny: Yeah, I can go intangible, invisible, and shoot ectoplasm. Oh, and I can fly.
Dick: Flying? Okay, Iâm officially jealous. Thatâs way cooler than grappling hooks.
Danny: Itâs not all great. Flying makes you a bigger target when youâre fighting people who can fly too. Or when youâre dodging ghost lasers.
Dick: Fair point. But still, flyingâs gotta feel amazing. Have you ever raced anyone?
Danny grinned at the question.
Danny: Not really. But I think Iâd win. Iâm pretty fast.
Dick: Challenge accepted. If we ever meet, Iâm racing you.
Later that evening, Jasonâs phone buzzed with a group chat notification.
Group Chat Name: Danny Phantom Appreciation Club
Members: Jason, Tim, Dick, Danny
Danny: What is this?
Tim: A group chat. Easier than texting us all individually.
Jason: It was Timâs idea. Donât blame me.
Dick: Hi, Danny! Welcome to the club.
Danny: You guys are insane.
Jason: And youâre stuck with us now, Little Ghost.
Danny: Why do I feel like this is the start of something terrifying?
Dick: Because it probably is. But weâre fun terrifying.
Danny: ...Iâm doomed, arenât I?
Tim: Yep. Welcome to the family.
Danny couldnât help but laugh, shaking his head. For all their chaos, the Bat-family was growing on him. Maybe having them around wouldnât be so bad after all.

Remus makes a soft hissing sound. âIs that how you always chop onions?âÂ
You look at him sideways. âWith a knife? Yes.âÂ
âDonât be cheeky,â he says, smiling. âYouâre going to hurt yourself.âÂ
You look down at your cutting board, still chopping but now bemused. âI donât plan on it.âÂ
James, whoâs appeared over your shoulder, makes a similar sound, hissing through his teeth. âNo, sweetheart.â He places his hand over yours on the handle of the knife, silently prompting you to stop. âRemâs right, youâre going to lose the tips of your fingers.âÂ
You feel a tad defensive of your chopping skills. âIâve managed to keep them all âtil now. What am I doing wrong?âÂ
âHere, let me.â James eases the knife from your grip, squishing in alongside you in front of the cutting board and taking your onion. âSee, you want to curl your fingers in a tiny bit so the knife skims off them. Like a claw.âÂ
You lean over, peering at his hand. âIt looks hard to keep a grip like that.âÂ
âIt takes a bit of practice,â he allows. James slices through the onion a few times with smooth, easy motions, then passes the knife back to you. âGive it a try.âÂ
You try to hold the onion the way he had, looking at James for approval. He taps your pinkie finger, getting you to curl that one a bit more, before smiling at you.Â
âThere you go. Thatâs good, now try cutting down your knuckles.âÂ
âThis feels scarier than my way,â you admit, though you do as he says, skimming the knife down your knuckles and slicing through the onion slowly.Â
âNo, youâve got it,â James praises. âThatâs really good, angel. Youâre a natural.âÂ
Your cheeks are starting to warm from all the compliments. âThanks,â you say in a small voice.Â
âDonât go getting shy,â says Sirius, coming in to steal a dry pasta noodle from Remus. He bites down on it with a crack that makes James grimace. âYou were so vocal about how you knew the proper way a minute ago.âÂ
âI still like my way better,â you say, recovering some.Â
âRight, well do it this way for our peace of mind, would you?â Jamesâ hand warms the small of your back as he watches you work. âYou have very pretty fingers, and I donât think Iâm being too presumptuous in saying that we all like them too much to risk it. Plus, youâve picked it up so quickly.âÂ
The heat from your face spreads lower. Itâs all you can do to squeak out a meek âokay.â Youâre grateful when James leaves to return to his own task.Â
A minute later, Remus comes over to check that youâre doing what youâre supposed to. He hums approvingly. âGood girl,â he murmurs, pressing a kiss to your hair. All the air in your lungs dries up. âThank you, darling. That looks great.âÂ
âShe learned from the best,â James quips.Â
Remus hums and kisses his hair too before turning back to his work. Itâs only a handful of seconds before they realize youâve not replied.Â
âDove?â Remus looks at you.Â
âHm?â you hum tightly.Â
âYou alright?â
âMhm.âÂ
James and Sirius have turned to look now, too. You keep your face downturned to the cutting board, but you can feel the weight of three curious stares on the back of your head. Sirius prowls over to you like a cat, taking you by the shoulders and turning you slowly.Â
âHumor me for a moment?â he asks, smirking. âI want to test a theory.âÂ
Youâre wound too tightly by this point to respond, his smug teasing pushing you to the edges of sanity. You barely have the wherewithal to set your knife down carefully behind you.Â
Your boyfriendâs cold hands find your warm face, shit-eating grin only spreading as he takes his time feeling about your cheeks with his knuckles and fingers. Sirius isnât always the most perceptive of your boyfriends, but unfortunately, humiliatingly, heâs the first to unravel this particular mystery.Â
He asks smoothly, âDo you like it when we tell you how good you are, pretty girl?âÂ
Youâre not sure if he can actually feel the flare of heat to your face at the words, but something about your expression must confirm it. Sirius laughs gleefully.Â
âAwe, angel.â James comes over to wrap his arms around you from the side, also laughing. âI didnât know we were winding you up when we talked like that. I was just trying to compliment what a quick learner you are.âÂ
âShe is a quick learner,â Sirius says in a salacious tone. âYou always follow instructions well, donât you, gorgeous?âÂ
âStop,â you plead, covering your face with your hands and forcing Sirius to move his. All three of your boyfriends snicker, James pressing a conciliatory kiss to your burning ear. âItâs not like it happens all the time, youâre just being so much right now. You canât just call someoneâcall themââÂ
âA good girl?â Remus asks you, and you donât think heâs putting on a tone like Sirius is, you really donât, but his regular voice is already so nearly pornographic that the heat in your core spreads anyway.Â
âRight,â you say weakly.Â
Remus chuckles. âI didnât mean anything by it, sweetheart. Sorry if I put you in anâŚuncomfortable position.âÂ
âNo, donât be sorry.â Sirius is giddy, smugness dialed up to eleven. âThis is a revelation. Just think what we could do with this. Youâve given us all a gift, babe.âÂ
âOh, our poor girl,â James laughs when you try to hide your face in his shoulder. âSirius is right, this is good! Itâs always good for us to know what you like, right?âÂ
Youâre too flustered to reply, but Remus agrees for you, humming contemplatively.Â
âYou know,â he says, âif I leave this to simmer for a while, we could make it up to you now, dove. Iâd feel awful if I wound you up without giving you any payoff.âÂ
His tone implies heâs at least partly joking, but Sirius doesnât take it that way. He has you all in the bedroom in thirty seconds flat, your chopping left to wait for your return.Â

Pivotal moments for Caitlyn Kirraman
**Spoilers for all of Arcane**
Much Like Vi I wanted to do a run-down of the moments for Caitlyn's character I see as showing us who she is/having the biggest impact for her character. As always I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read these as well all celebrate these amazing characters and story. I feel Caitlyn's arc was massively under-appreciated in season 2 by the fandom and hope this lends itself to backing that up.
*Side Note- I'm doing these in order in her life not necessarily how we see them in the show*
Helping Jayce:
We are not granted a lot of time with young Caitlyn when compared to say, Vi or Jinx, which makes sense of course given the focus of the story. However, what we are given perfectly demonstrate the bedrock of who we come to know. She is shown as bright and curious and eager, helping him carry supplies to the lab. She is also shown even at a young age standing up for Jayce to her parents, sitting out in the rain to speak with him, and as shown above, identifying herself as a misfit. Now on the surface its easy to say she falls into the "rich kid who doesn't belong" trope. But as we come to know her she is truly so much more than that.
Who Do You Shoot For?:
Building on Caitlyn's compassion and defiance in the face of the system she is born into, we have her shooting competition with Grayson. First of all we just get a glimpse into the tough, skilled marksman she will become. But going deeper, we have her interaction with Grayson at the party. Once again she demonstrates that ever-so-polite defiance, humorously confronting the sheriff of Piltover for letting her win. But its their conversation after that's important. The sheriff tells her being skilled with her rife means protecting people, and Caitlyn must decide who she is shooting for. I would liken this to Vi's lessons with Vander. Because while we see Caitlyn go through so much pain and darkness, ultimately when she finds her way back who is she? A leader will go toe-to-toe with anyone for those she wants to protect. For those she shoots for.
The Airship incident:
This our first real moment with Caitlyn as a character and it tells us several important things about her. Leading up to it, we learn her parents disapprove of her being an enforcer, and manipulated her posting to keep her close by for which she is resentful. This is not surprising, as we come to learn her genuine drive to help and make a difference. She goes to investigate the airship alone. We see her detective's mind at work for the first time, playing out the incident. We then see her interaction with a massive, tattooed undercity criminal who is wounded. She is kind, gentle and respectful despite her role as an enforcer. Furthermore, when Marcus confronts her, he says she's interfering AGAIN. Caitlyn may be naĂŻve and sheltered when we meet her, but she is not PLAYING at being an enforcer. She wants to help, and is actively trying to figure out what's going on in the undercity, apparently long before she even meets Vi.
The Hexgem theft:
This marks Caitlyn's first interaction with Jinx, which could not be more important to her Arc. Her very first impression of the woman she could never have known would impact her life so greatly, is a manic terrorist who lights a building on fire and fakes that a child is trapped inside before setting off bombs that kill multiple of Caitlyn's peers. Also of note, although not unexpected with what we have seen from her so far is that she rushes in to help and is the first one to notice the danger despite being a rookie enforcer.
Meeting Vi:
Meeting and freeing Vi is Caitlyn first step into the wider world around her and has immeasurable impact on her character. Her love story with Vi aside (I love it to, its just I could write pages on them alone and I am trying to cover all of her arc in this post haha) we also see her head strong, determined nature in this moment. Remember, she has already been reprimanded for unauthorized investigations into Silco and the undercity. We have been told she has a history of this. When Jayce goes to see her after the explosion she is still investigating, and now she fakes Jayce's authorization to free a woman she doesn't know in order to chase her lead. SHE. WILL. NOT. QUIT. Sound like she may be a good fit for a certain head strong boxer who lacks patience but is always honest? Anyway, the other thing we see here that is a small moment and not unexpected given what we have seen from her, is her disgust and discomfort over how the prison has treated Vi.
Saving Vi Part 1:
Vi is almost certainly about to be killed when Caitlyn intervenes. She accurately strikes Sevika multiple times with her rifle and is controlled and calm. At a first glance her accuracy and skill are plenty commendable. She hits the same spot with accuracy, lands with clear athleticism to join Vi, is calm, collected, confidant and restrained enough not to Kill Sevika. As soon as the threat is passed she tends to her wounded ally. Now here's the thing. I didn't do a bullet point for it, but consider Caitlyn's behavior following Vi down into the lanes. Part of it is of course that it was unfamiliar and shocking when vi took off, and Caitlyn just wasn't used to that sort of thing. But she was kind of adorably clumsy and unsure. She never really moves with confidence and strength, until of course she pulls our a rifle and starts blasting a woman who just stabbed her new friend with pint point accuracy three times. The moment someone's life is at risk Caitlyn shows us this entirely new side of herself. Perhaps the side of her that will someday lead the front lines in the battle of Piltover?
Saving Vi part two:
n Caitlyn's continuing efforts to save Vi we delve deeper into what we have already seen from her. At the very basic level, she barely knows Vi. Yes of course we are seeing the beginnings of their feelings for each-other. But that aside she is a young woman in her early twenties. She has followed this woman she barely knows into this very dangerous place, saved her from being killed, followed her even deeper while caring for her, and now she follows a shimmer mutated Huck to the "Doctor" to save Vi. I went to Netflix and counted while writing this. It takes no more than ten seconds for her to surrender her prized rifle that is likely custom made for her and she clearly loves, all to save Vi's life. She then hugs the grotesquely mutated Huck out of gratitude after being kind to him, and showing him respect for his help. She does not shy away, is not disgusted. And in fact she lunges for the hug. This ties to her conversation with Vi during this ordeal before she gives up her rifle. In which she is speaking on her belief that Zaunites and Topsiders are all just people. She does not see them as different.
The Firelights:
To me this is a massively important point for Caitlyn for a few reasons.
Caitlyn & Vi: They start off bickering. Blaming each other for what they have played close to the vest. But as soon as Vi is taken away what does Caitlyn do? She is concerned and afraid for her. And when she sees Ekko she demands Vi be released and offers herself instead.
in General: She speaks to her desire to see an end to the killing. Its clear she hasn't known how bad things actually are with the enforcers and the undercity, and is understandably resistant at first. But after only a few moments, she acknowledges Ekko would be within his rights to keep the gemstone but "The Cycle of Violence Will Never Stop" (sound familiar?). She quickly agrees to let Ekko be the one to give the stone to the council, still believing in peace and trying to play a part in making it happen.
**Side note: I didn't do a whole point on it because it's really about Vi and Jinx. But we need to make note that before this Caitlyn has her second interaction with Jinx in which Jinx shows herself to be paranoid, unstable and violent**
The Bridge:
The attack on the bridge is immensely impactful on Caitlyn's character and what I like to think of as the true beginning of Caitlyn's destabilization, leading to her descent into the dark. Thus far, we have watched this extraordinary young woman weather some truly insane events when you consider the life she has lead until now. Even still, she has remained poised, brave, respectful and open. Of course she has heard talk about brutality of her people toward the undercity. She has admitted it was wrong and wants to see things made right. But that is very different than the highest member of her organization shooting her new friend in the chest and getting ready to kill her. Its a sudden and violent in-the-moment thrusting of reality upon her that she has no choice but to believe. Furthermore, we mark her next interaction with Jinx, who has now almost killed her a third time, as well as almost killing Vi and they believe having killed Ekko and who knows how many enforcers.
Testifying To The Council:
So I know I am repeating myself some here. But that is intentional. The show is driving home for us that Caitlyn is truly a good person. Everything she has been through up until now with Vi is intense, scary, and destabilizing. She and Vi have very real feelings for each other and we end this section with very sad moment in which it seems hopeless for them. But its leading up to that I want to discuss. Caitlyn stands before the council of Piltover. The richest and most powerful people in her immediate world. With her mother on the council it feels reasonable to assume she knows these people. They probably have watched her grow up. And yet in her early twenties after earning the knowledge the hard way what does she do? She stands before them and calls them out for their failures. Including herself in that. She takes a stand against the neglect by Piltover that made the people of the undercity vulnerable to dangerous criminals. She commends Vi for putting herself at risk in helping Caitlyn, and never throws Vi under the bus as Jinx's older sister. And when Vi gets upset and leaves Caitlyn tries to get her to stay still insisting their must be a way.
Abduction From Home/Dinner Party:
In her next interaction with Jinx, Caitlyn is taken from the safety of her own home, and held hostage until Jinx initiates her dinner party with Vi. The events of the dinner party set the stage for the next chapter of the story dramatically affecting every character we meet, and Caitlyn is no exception. As this is the end of season 1, a brief refresher of who we have come to know up until this point is in order:
Clever, bright and loyal young girl who will defy convention to stand up for those she loves
Tenacious and dedicated teenage girl who doesn't want to earn her victories and is pondering things like who she is shooting for
Dedicated rookie enforcer who will not be deterred from investigating wrong doing and corruption no matter the cost
Open minded and trusting young woman in her early twenties who saves someone she barely knows life, even at the cost of her prized weapon and her own safety multiple times
Displays her desire to see peace with the undercity multiple times and verbally equates the undercity and topsiders in terms of humanity going against the classist behavior of characters like Marcus for example.
Treats Vi with tenderness, loyalty and trust even before they really get to know each-other.
Now. The reason I ran that down again is because THAT young woman in her early twenties is the person you see in the GIF above you. Jinx has now tried to kill her repeatedly. Killed her fellow enforcers. Tried to kill the woman she is having feelings for, even though that woman is her sister. Has abducted her from her bathroom naked, and now has her here. She looks utterly and completely terrified and I don't blame her. And to top it all off, after hesitating to take a shot at Jinx due to her feelings for Vi, Caitlyn is knocked out violently and THEN HAS TO WATCH JINX KILL HER MOTHER.
RETURN TO PILTOVER:
Caitlyn and Vi return to the upper city in the wake of immense tragedy and we see Caitlyn trying to hold it all together. Her whole world has gone black & White except for Violet(s). She is trying so hard to keep it together but already we can see the cracks forming. Even with all that has happened she maintains her testimony of Jinx being the only issue which is instrumental in preventing more violent Piltover retaliation. But we must also recognize her (totally understandable just jarring) desire to end Jinx's laugh forever, Mel's comments to Jayce regarding Caitlyn hiding it well but being in "So Much Pain", and Caitlyn asking Vi to put on the uniform of an Enforcer, when she knows Vi's history. Caitlyn is suffering and trying to hard to hold things together.
The Memorial Attack:
Caitlyn is drowning in grief. Her relationship with Vi is tenuous. She is expected to rise to meet her mothers role in city. She is holding on for dear life to her ideals and perceptions of reality that have shaped her as a person. Now the attack on the memorial is incredible as a fan for many reasons. But for Caitlyn we need to keep two things in mind as we move forward that at extremely impactful in understanding her:
There is no reason to think she and the others would not assume that Jinx had ordered this attack, or at the very least assisted in some way. The last they saw of Vi's sister she had just struck at the very heart of Piltover's government and its entirely reasonable to assume this attack is an extension of that. So I think its fair to say we can consider this Caitlyn's next interaction with Jinx even if its all mental.
Up until now, Caitlyn has never used any broad-stroke negativity toward the people of the undercity. She has addressed individuals, or perhaps a specific group of people in the undercity such as Silco's goons. But never called them Trenchers, Sump rats or any of that other stuff. Here in her rage, we see her refer to the people who attacked as Animals. Now in the moment, its entirely reasonable when pertaining to the attackers. But it is a noticable shift in her that tells us she is already (quite understandably) being swallowed by what happened.
The Strike Team:
Caitlyn leading the strike team into Zaun and utilizing the grey has been the source of much controversy. Its a clear escalation in her willingness to do violence against the undercity but when you consider everything we have talked about its hardly a shock. However, this show does a good job of letting us know Caitlyn is not totally lost to her pain. All we have to do is think critically:
While the use of the grey is extremely dark and absolutely morally questionable, the fandom's decision to portray it as mustard gas/sarin/pick your lethal poison is nonsense. We have seen multiple characters exposed to it multiple times and live. Its debilitating in the moment and uncomfortable and I'm sure is unhealthy over long exposure. Its tear gas.
Caitlyn's small targeted force is the alternative to full-scale invasion with hex tech armed enforcers. As I have said in various posts, by this point in the story Piltover retaliating is not an if. its a when and how bad. Caitlyns plan is the only reason an army of Enforcers does not march into the undercity at this point.
All that to say this. While she is clearly heading down a dark path, excising the hyperbole of the fan-base determined to demonize her and taking into account the whole of the circumstances surrounding this part of the story we are shown Caitlyn is still in there. But she is losing the fight with her inner-demons.
The Kiss:
We all cheered here. I did. You know you did. But I think we all knew the heartbreaking truth here as well. It was far too late for her to keep her promise to Vi. And in truth, it wasn't a fair thing for Vi to ask (BEFORE YOU COME FOR ME- Vi is my favorite character, and I have written extensively in her defense against the absolutely inane criticisms people have been levelling at her character). It's not Vi's fault, she has lost everyone she loves and is terrified watching the last person she has left be warped by the darkness in their lives. But when you consider the totality of paradigm-shifting suffering Caitlyn has endured since meeting Vi, I don't know how anyone couldn't change.
I have seen people say that Caitlyn was wrong to promise Vi. Wrong to kiss her in this moment. Those people are holding these characters to unreasonable standards in the extreme. We are seeing Caitlyn trying for the woman she loves. She sees the vulnerability and fear in Vi, the woman she loves so much, who she has been through so much with (and who has donned the Enforcer uniform for her) and of course she has a surge of love and a desire to comfort Vi. The love and tenderness is undeniable. But when you take in the context of the situation, It feels like we are waiting for the floor to fall out from under us. AND BOY DOES IT.
The Battle/The Break up/The Rise of the Commander:
I group these together because really its the transition of Caitlyn as we know her into "The Commander". This whole section is in a word, heartbreaking. We see Caitlyn fighting tooth and nail against Sevika, she likely saves Vi's life as it seems like Isha's gun was going to go off (whether the child meant it to or not), and Vi stops Caitlyn from taking the shot. Leading to Caitlyn lashing out in the worst way, telling Vi she is no different than the woman who killed Caitlyn's mother (AKA the version of Vi's sister Caitlyn knows Vi carries immense guilt over) and ending her status as the only enforcer never to abuse Vi, leaving her holding her stomach and crying on the floor while Caitlyn abandons her. We then see Caitlyn chosen as the commander, taking her place by Ambessa's side, becoming someone who would betray everything she used to stand for .
Its easy to look at this, and feel anger at Caitlyn. Especially as someone who has always connected with Vi's character and as someone who really loves their love story it leaves you feeling violated. But that's the thing, it should. We are not watching Caitlyn choose power out of a desire to destroy her enemies or because she thinks she deserves it. We are watching the tragic culmination of this brave, compassionate, brilliant and tenacious young woman being swallowed by the darkness. What's the line from Hamilton? "There are moments when your in so deep, it feels easier to just swim down". She has lost her mother, her sense of safety, her belief in the system of law and order she has lived her whole life by, and now the woman she loves. And in swoops Ambessa, a warlord. A woman renowned for her cleverness and manipulation. She takes this vulnerable, grieving, isolated and angry young woman and tells her she will get her justice. Caitlyn never had a chance.
**A small pause to discuss grief and peoples absolutely insane take on Caitlyn's handling of hers**
I am going to take a second here before we move on because due to the rushed pacing of season 2 Caitlyn doesn't get the detail she should have after this point, and because the discussion of her loss and grief is essential in understanding how this all happened. This is one of those things I have written about before but peoples dogmatic opposition to media literacy continues so here we go! "Ku Klux Kirraman!", "Oh the people of the undercity live in constant pain and death but Caitlyn loses a single family member and starts gassing kids?!"
To put it simply my friends. Grief is not a contest. Yes, of course the people growing up in the undercity have a much better understanding of death and grief than Caitlyn. up until the events of this story, she has lived a life of peace, and privilege, and comfort . And that's not a bad thing. ideally all children would know such a life if we could work our will upon the world right? But what it means for her is that when she does experience that loss, to say nothing of it being at the hands of a woman who has tried to kill her repeatedly, tried to kill the woman she loves, killed her peers, and abducted her naked from her own bathroom, Caitlyn's entire world is shifted. I have mentioned multiple times during this whole thing. She is only in her early twenties. That is so young.. so fucking young to have your world shift SO VIOLENTLY in such a short time. And in the standard incredible fashion of this show, they have addressed this concept already. Remember this?
Vi is angry at Jayce for bowing out due to the under city child's death. And for her, for the way she grew up she is totally justified in feeling that way. She grew up surrounded by death. But its just too much for Jayce.
I sincerely hope all of you reading this never have to cope with the loss of a loved one but we all know that's not reality. So if you are one of the people demonizing Caitlyn for what happens here because Zaunites have it worse I'll ask you this. The last time you lost someone, did you chastise yourself because someone somewhere has it worse? No. Because that's unreasonable, illogical, and would be a cruel standard to hold yourself to. Grief is achingly, agonizingly personal to each of us. And while it does not justify Caitlyn's actions, you are simply blind folding yourself to the humanity of this character by ignoring it
Months as the Commander:
As I said unfortunately we don't get to see a lot of Caitlyn "as the commander" but we do learn some things. There are check-points in Zaun, they are imprisoning people, and under the oppressions she has allowed to flourish the Noxians are able to do things like violently arrest people for having a non-violent rally in the Undercity itself. THINGS ARE NOT GREAT. But there some things of note I want to discuss in understanding Caitlyn's state of mind during this time:
The top GIF is not long enough but watching the scene you can see how distant Caitlyn is, how cold. She is not a "happy-go-lucky" facist gleefully imposing her will. We are actively watching someone in so much pain and so buried by her mistakes she doesn't know how to find her way out.
2. All is not lost however. She discusses her issues with the Noxians behavior, she openly questions Ambessa, she has forbidden the use of the cells where she found the love of her life, and despite her mentor's glee over the opportunity to utilize Singed and his knowledge. Caitlyn knows him for what he is, a monster.
Reunited With Vi:
The pacing just takes off at a dead sprint once Vi and Caitlyn find each other so I will touch briefly on the various points I want to for this section. I will say this, I know we all have feelings on how they handled Vi and Caitlyn's reconciliation. I am of the opinion that it was justified by what they showed us completely, but it was still rushed. Like they got the right answer on the math question but only shared the basics of every step to solving it if that makes sense.
Saving Vander
Vi and Caitlyn have this first interaction after so long and its so clear they have both changed so much. But what matters is this. Even after everything Caitlyn has done, Vi trusts her with the truth (Because Vi refuses to give up on those she loves), and Caitlyn immediately is on board. This happens so quickly and we only see them discuss it a little, but we need to think about what this means. Caitlyn finds out the "Weapon" is Vi's dad, and she is ready to turn on Ambessa, the enforcers with her, and the whole system. All for the woman she loves
2. The Battle of the Commune:
So I couldn't find a good GIF for it but even before this moment while Caitlyn is angry when she sees Jinx she doesn't make a move toward her. Then we hit this moment here. If you flash back to the battle that ended in Caitlyn breaking Vi's heart, Caitlyn wanted to take a shot that very likely could have killed a child if it meant hurting jinx. Now Jinx is running with her back to Caitlyn and ALL she cares about is getting to Vi
3. Taking Accountability:
We find out in this confrontation that although Jinx is in jail, it is because she surrendered. Not because Caitlyn ordered it. We also have a few key examples of Caitlyn owning what she has done:
"I KNOW!"- when confronted by Vi over letting Ambessa poison her heart
"We can't erase our mistakes"- She doesn't say "Jinx" can't take back her mistakes. She says "We" and "Our". She is clearly remorseful.
This rolls directly into her conversation with Jinx in which we see even more that Caitlyn knows what she has done:
"No good deed can erase OUR crimes"- Once again holding herself to the same standard as the woman who killed her mother. Holding herself accountable
"I've hated myself"- This could literally not be more clear
*On Cait and Jinx*: I've touched on this before but the parallels between these two are phenomenal. Broken, vulnerable, isolated grieving young women taken in by older, cleverer mentors with their own agendas but who care about them directing their pain for their own purposes. They then both have to learn to end the cycle, or the killing will never stop. Damn this show is so good.
Freeing Jinx:
Caitlyn made a lot of mistakes. That's not a secret. There were reasons as I and many and others have explained. But in this moment, she has intentionally paved the way for the woman she loves, to free her little sister from Jail. This comes after Cait admitting she doesn't want to hate Jinx any more. The cycle has to end. And Caitlyn admitting she has made mistakes, she has hated herself, she has lost herself to the darkness she now knows she has inside as well. And on top of that, she is here showing Vi that Vi is not alone, that Vi is loved, and that she knows Vi so well she knew what she would do and tried to help. its beautiful, its heartwarming, and after watching who Caitlyn was be shattered into pieces, we are now seeing her re-forged, stronger and more beautiful.
Commander Indeed:
Here we have Caitlyn becoming the commander she should have been. I believe I saw a post that one of the voice actors of the show suggested Caitlyn did nothing during the final battle and got her happy ending. Lets recap shall we:
Leads her troops from the front
Tries to take out Ambessa early and spare bloodshed
We have the bad-ass scene of her fighting with the mask taking out multiple soldiers
Even with a rifle at the back of her head she disables Maddie and tries to take out Ambessa
With a knife in her side and exhausted and scared she challenges A WARLORD OF NOXUS to a fight. "Shut Up and Fight!"
Sacrifices her own eye to take Ambessa out of the fight.
This is all pretty clear cut but I mean god damn. Her character evolution is absolutely staggering.
The End:
Caitlyn ends her story (for now anyway.. looking at your Riot) with the woman she loves. She has surrendered her spot on the Council to Sevika officially granting the undercity a place at the table. And we see her pondering the hex-gate ventilation system, perhaps giving us some hope that Jinx will return as well. I totally understand there are things people wanted to see with Caitlyn that we didn't get to see. But all we can control is what we were given. And when you look at the story of Caitlyn Kiramman, Born in wealth and privilege but with dreams of helping people, to being swallowed by grief, to finding common ground with the woman who took her mother from her, to rising as a leader who doesn't ask her people to fight when she won't and who willingly sacrifices herself for those who look follow her, I'd say she has one hell of an arc. I hope I did her some justice. This actually ended up being longer than i planned but man the more I think about her the more in-depth her story gets. I appreciate all of you.

Just a reminder if you decide to illegally take a wild animal from the wild for yourself, even if you have the best interests at heart, you could be killing it.
If you feed it the wrong diet you can cause it's bones to break or other diseases associated with mineral imbalances. If you feed it too much you could cause issues associated with obesity including excessive fat stores.
If you aren't a trained wildlife rehabilitator you won't understand the importance of preventing imprinting or humanising. So you'll cuddle it, play with it, and let your pets play with it. So it will think it can only get food from humans, and that humans and domestic pets are part of its family.
If you take it while it's still young it won't learn the necessary foraging and social skills from its parents to survive in the wild. You might joke you don't even need a cage for it, but it isn't able to go anywhere because you've made it dependant on you.
If you aren't a wildlife carer or in the animal health industry you might not realise it's injured and needs treatment. This could lead to broken bones setting in ways that the animal can't perform normal functions and suffering from a life of chronic pain. Or it could lead to it suffering a slow and agonising death.
You might also not be aware that wildlife can contain diseases that can make you sick or even kill you. You could put yourself and your loved ones at risk of serious zoonotic diseases by bringing it home.
And, if you are found to be illegally holding a wild animal without the intention of rehabilitating and releasing it, the authorities are stuck. They can't release the animal because it thinks humans and domestic pets are friends. It can't forage for itself. It can't socialise with its own kind. It could have injuries or diet associated diseases that mean it can't perform normal functions, or is suffering from chronic pain. If they released it, it would die.
Is it fair for that animal that your choices have led to it not being able to experience its life in the wild as it should?
If you take something from the wild and intend to keep it, I hope this makes you think twice.
These kinds of stories are all over social media now, but none of them tell this side. They normalise putting a wild animal though an incredibly stressful experience purely for likes and engagement.
If you want to be a hero, get accredited to be a wildlife rehabilitator. Join an amazing network of compassionate humans just like you who understand that wild things should be wild, and do everything they can to get them back there.
If you find a wild animal and you're not sure what to do, call your local veterinary clinic or wildlife rehabilitation group. Trust that we have the knowledge to make the best choices for that animal. And if you want to make those choices, join us.

Main Masterlist | Criminal Minds Masterlist
Jealousy can be very ugly.
It can also be very hot. And on Aaron Hotchner it was sexy as hell. The way his jaw clenched, his eyes darken, and the air around him just got thick with tension you knew about, but the line was never crossed.
You had feelings for Aaron, everyone in the BAU knew it, he knew it, and he still had yet to decide what, and if, he felt for you.
You always tried to push him, loving the way he seemed so close to losing it only to watch him attempt to reel himself in. Once you had danced with a guy at the bar after a long case and your eyes never left Aaron. No matter how many times the guy dipped his head to kiss (more like slobbered with how drunk he was) your neck, you continued to stare at him, surprised that the glass he was holding didnât break with the force of his grip, his knuckles already white.
And when you decided you were done with your dance partner, you attempted to leave only to have him get aggressive. You knew you could fit him off if need be, but it was much more satisfying when Aaron strode over and introduced him to that amazing right hook of his.
It was even better when he took you roughly by the waist and led you out of the bar.
In his car, you tried to push a little more, wanting him to finally admit something to you.
âGod,â You sigh and brush your hand down his arm, admiring the way they flex under your touch, âYou are so hot when you are jealous.â
âIâm not jealous.â
âThere is no need to deny the chemistry between us, Aaron. We arenât on the clock so you arenât my Unit Chief, and I am not your underling, though I would so love to be under you.â You purr, warmth flooding your as his tongue darts out to wet his lower lip, your eyes following the motion longingly.
It would be easier if he would just give in to what was going on between the two of you.
But sadly, that was where the night ended for you.
Aaron took you back to your apartment, walked you up (like the gentleman he was), and left you there all alone.
Over the next few months you tried again and again to prove there was something between you, not only physically, but emotionally as well.
Pulling him out of his office for lunch or bringing it to him, just to make sure he would eat. Putting sticky notes on his monitor or his desk with little encouragements and reminders since you knew he could get too far into his own head and needed some help out.
And it wasnât like he didnât do things for you.
Bringing you coffee, made just to your liking, at the beginning of the shift or when you run low on your own coffee. He always seemed to know when you needed your fix. He also would save you a seat on the plane, the one next to the window because he knows you like to look out at the clouds during long flights.
âWhen we land, Y/n, Reid and I will go to the police station to set up. Morgan, you and Emily check out the crime scene.â
Aaron dished out the rest of the orders as the plane started to descend. Honestly after he told you where you were going to be, which of course was with him because he always seemed to think he needed to keep an eye on you, something you couldnât decide if was out of how similar your skill sets are or because he has a constant need to be near you, you stopped listening.
You were certain that it was both. You knew Aaron wouldnât sacrifice the case or the people involved just for a romantic feeling towards you.
Once you landed and got to the police station, everything seemed to flash by in a whirlwind.
You barely had any time to focus on anything other than catching the asshole that was killing women.
âYou seem to be running into the ground, Agent.â
Officer Danny Grant was such a little cutie and seemed to immediately take a liking to you.
âIâll rest when we catch this guy.â You reach for your cup of awful cop coffee, even though it was the only thing keeping you going at the moment, but frowned when you found the cup empty.
Cursing, you turn away from the board to get more.
âHere.â Grant offered you another cup, his face a little flushed and a smile on his lips. âI noticed you were low. I donât know how you take it so I just made it black. If you need any creamer or sugar I can get it for you.â
âThanks, Grant.â You smiled and took the cup. The warmth of it not only warming your hands, but your heart a little as well. Usually Aaron would bring you coffee, but this case seemed to take a toll on him, which you remind yourself you would have to check on him later. Now that someone else noticed and cared enough to bring you something so small, yet so vital, was sweet.
You take a sip of the black coffee, wishing it was sweeter, but the jolt of bitterness was the wake up you needed.
âI usually like it sweet, but black is fine. Itâs just what I need.â
Grant continued to stick to your side, helping with the case whenever he could and bringing you more coffee (this time with a side of sugar). He was actually very helpful and you enjoyed the company of him, conversation and ideas bouncing easily.
Aaron on the other hand didnât like the attention you were getting from the young, wide eyed officer.
He couldnât stand the fact that he was distracting you from the case at hand (even though he wasnât actually), the way you laughed when he said something you deemed funny, but it wasnât, and the thing he hated the most was the smile you beamed at him when he brought you more coffee.
The smile you usually only gave him. Why were you giving it to this guy? Even when the group went out and you flirted with other men, knowing that it would get a rise out of him (though he would never admit it out loud) you never gave them that kind smile, the one that made your nose scrunch up so adorably.
It would be so easy for Aaron to go over there. He can imagine himself pulling you away from Grant. It wasnât like he didnât know how you felt pressed against his own body. The amount of nights he had to pull himself away from you, unable to cross that line, the line between boss and subordinate. A line that heâs tiptoed since the first time he saw you.
If only it was that simple to give into you.
A few hours later, you could feel your steam running out and your eyes drooping, no matter how much coffee you drank.
âThere hasnât been any new information.â Aaronâs voice woke you just before your head hit the conference table for the second time that night, âLetâs call it a night and look at this in the morning with fresh eyes.â
âNo no,â you whine, failing to lift your eyelids, âI can keep going.â
âAgent Hotchner is right. Come on, let's get you to the hotel.â
Just as Grant reached for you, Aaron was quick to his feet, striding over to you with only a few steps and grabbing your shoulder before Grant could. âI have her.â Aaron lifted you up, one hand resting under both of your legs and the other on your back, smirking at Grant as you wrap your arms around his neck and snuggle into him.
The look of shock on the officerâs face was sickeningly satisfying.
Never would Aaron be this bold, especially in front of others, but he couldnât help himself. He couldn't just let this man touch you. Not after spending all day watching his poor attempts at flirting.
You could, and probably would, be upset with him tomorrow.
Aaron lifted his chin, daring others to say anything as he made his way through the precinct with you tucked in his arms. Once you were outside, you push your face into his neck subconsciously, inhaling his scent and sending a shiver through him, thankful that at least some part of you waited until you were out of sight to get clingy with him.
âYou are,â You yawn, lips brushing against his skin,âso hot when you are jealous.â
âI am not jealous.â
All you did was hum in response as you drift off to sleep in his arms.
For the rest of the case you stuck to Grant every chance you got, barely paying Aaron any attention.
He knew you were doing it on purpose. You knew he knew that you knew you were doing it on purpose.
Thankfully the team was able to wrap up the case and it was only one night left before you left.
No more case. No more reason to stay in California. No more Grant.
Aaron wonders if he should be as happy as he was as he pressed the button for your floor on the elevator. He doesnât have much time to think about it when a minute later the elevator door opens and he sees Grant standing at your door, leaning against the open door with you.
âSo now that the case is over, do you want to get dinner before you leave? Iâm sure hotel food isnât as good as a good burger at this little dive I know down the street.â
You giggle at his forwardness. While you do love and want Aaron, turning down a free meal from a cute man before you never see him again couldnât hurt, right?
âYou know a little dive? Is it a âCalifornia delicacy?ââ
Grant leaned in, brushing a strand of hair behind your ear. âOh absolutely.â
Rage and jealousy flows through Aaron, his jaw and fists clenched. His legs carried him towards you before his brain could catch up.
No more games.
In a flash, Aaron grabbed Grant by the collar of his shirt, yanking him back and away from you.
âA Aaron?!â You squeak as the man pushes you into your hotel room, closing and locking the door behind you.
His hands grab your wrists, tugging and trapping them above your head, the air leaving you completely as his lips crash against yours.
The months and months of tension finally exploded within you, arching your hips to meet him, gasping when he grips your wrists tighter in warning.
âYou really canât resist flirting can you?â Aaronâs voice may have been calm, almost bored, but his eyes betrayed the fire, the anger he held. âYou just love to rile me up.â
âI thought,â you moan when he moves to kiss your neck, âyou werenât jealous.â
His laugh is condescending, one of his hands snaking down to your side while the other held tight. This was the Aaron Hotchner you wanted, the one you knew he could be if you just pushed right, but now that he was here you didnât quite know how to handle him.
Not that you would let him know. Not as your body shivers when he rests his hand on your waist, nails digging through the material of your jeans.
âYou and I both know I am not. Why be jealous when your body is so truthful with me? It tells me everything,â His smirk widens as he cupped your cunt and you whine, subconsciously grinding against his hand, seeking the dull pleasure you could get through the two layers of fabric separating you, âI need to know. It is an open book for me.â
You want to cry when Aaron withdraws from you, only proving his point further. God you want him. More than absolutely anything.
âNow be a good girl and get on the bed. I want you naked and on all fours by the time I get out of the bathroom.â
âT The bathrâŚâ Your words die on your lips when Aaron gives you a pointed stare, one that has you clenching around nothing, before he walks away from you and into the bathroom, leaving the door slightly ajar, almost as if daring you to disobey him.
As much as you wanted to, just to see what he would do to you, you decided that would be for a different time. Quickly shedding your top and jeans, you obey like the good girl you want to be for him.
You wait for what feels like an eternity, but was probably only five minutes before you could hear Aaronâs footsteps coming out of the bathroom. Instinct has you turning your head to look at him, âDonât you fucking move.â but his harsh voice has you snapping it back and a shiver running down your spine.
Or was that his fingers that danced along your back? Honestly you didnât know, but you didn;t have time to ponder it before he splayed his open palm across one of your ass cheeks, drawing back and coming down with a swift smack.
You moan, the sudden motion causing you to fall forward, your arms giving out.
âJust a little taste of what happens when you play with me.â Aaron rubbed the spot where you were sure was going to be slightly red from the force. âBut I wonât give you more since you seemed to follow my orders like such a good girl.â
A whine escapes you at his words. You wanted to hear them over and over. To be praised by him over and over. His fingers ghost from your ass straight to your center, pressing and feeling, but never fully sinking into you.
âOh fuck,â You squirm under his carful attention, âPlease. Please Aaron!â
âPlease what? How will I know what you want without words?â
You cry as the tip of his finger comes dangerously close to your clit only for him to pull it away just as quickly. You knew what he was doing. He was teasing you just like you had teased him, almost like a form of sick payback, and though he did have the upper hand, you felt like you had already won.
You had him in bed.
âPlease touch me, Aaron. I need your hands on me, in me, anything.â
âThere we go.âÂ
The reward for your confession was sweet. His fingers circled your clit, applying the right amount of pressure that had you moaning loudly. Aaron continued to work you, leaving your brain in a haze of pleasure which only intensified when he finally moved to sink one finger into your core.
âFuck..â Aaron curses, his finger setting a steady pace, thrusting in and out of you, admiring the embarrassingly wet noises your cunt makes. âYou are so wet.â
You moan when he slides a second finger in, then a third, the stretch burning oh so deliciously.
Heâs got you at his mercy, hips rocking back to meet his thrusts, drool pooling on the hotel sheets below you. âAaron!â You cry, the coil in your gut pushing and pushing you closer to the edge, threatening to break and toss you into a sweet release.
âLet go.â
With his permission, and his fingers brushing that sweet spot that made you see stars, you do.
You scream as your orgasm crashes into you. If the outside could hear you, you didnât care. All that mattered was Aaron, his name the only thing occupying your mind and the only thing spilling out of your mouth as if it was the only name you knew.
And right now it was.
Aaron continued to thrust his fingers into you, helping you through your orgasm until you tried to pull away from him, but his other hand gripped your waist, pulling you back and onto his fingers.
âAaron!â You squirmed. It was too much, but you didnât want him to stop as his fingers expertly stroked and thrust, bringing you to a second orgasm in record time. Tears prick your eyes, your body shaking, feeling weightless and not here.
You didnât even notice when Aaron carefully turned you on your back, brushing your hair back from your face and kissing your forehead. He treated you like procaline, peppering kisses all over your face until you came back to him. âThereâs my girl.â
His girl. The thought had you smiling like a lovesick fool, which was appropriate because you were. No longer were the steel eyes and lustful gaze, but soft brown eyes filled with an adoration you werenât used to seeing. You swallow and reach for him. Aaron wrapped you in his arms and held you close.
âHey.â
âHi.â
Now what? Was he going to continue? Fuck you? Or, and something you hoped he wouldnât do, leave you.
Aaron, the ever brilliant profiler he was, could see the war going on in your head before you could speak. He leaned down to kiss you, hand gently rubbing shapes on your upper thigh.
âDonât worry. I will be right here for more when you wake.â
You feel a little guilty about not returning the favor, but Aaron quickly shuts that down. He grabs the hotel comfort and pulls it up, covering the two of you, tucking you into his chest. Your eyes feel heavy from the force of cumming twice (and Aaronâs skilled fingers) that you couldnât seem to argue, eyes closing as sleep takes over.
You definitely would make him feel good when you wake up.
