oh great, I fell asleep again. except I had really horrible nightmares. and then got woken up by the doorbell, because a guy was here for the internet cables. i had just woken up and I was told before that they wouldn't need anything from us, so I was really confused. and he was the first rude one of all the people I've had to deal with since we moved in. I have literally nothing at all to do with any of this, I just live here 😭😭😭

bsf(?)enha x f!reader. warning. none, kissing in jake’ + fluff wc.0.9k 🐰 seiu?!: after a century i’m writing hcs again yayy
Tumblr media
— HEESEUNG LEE
let’s you bite him, very weird behavior but he has grown used to it, at first he was all confused as to why you feel the need to bite him like a chew toy but it’s okay your best friend(?) get you now, his biceps nom nom, but due to all this he has bite marks all over him which he is least bothered about but he does get asked if he is dating someone a lot which is confusing because why would people just assume he is dating out of the blue “yn you know i have been asked three times today whether im seeing someone and it’s all because of the bite marks you leave, people would think we are dating”
“do you want that to be a reality” he looks at you with wide eyes “are you hearing yourself” — “i am heeseung”
— JAY PARK
wears your hair tie which very bf coded and i wonder why he hasn’t asked you out yet? like which bestie goes around wearing a girls hair tie when he obviously is in the market? wearing it just makes you thing he is taken “do you love my hair tie that much you can’t even return it to me? YOU CANT RETURN MY OWN HAIR TIE TO ME” shoves a piece of cake in your mouth to shut you up “is it bothering that much, i will buy you more” which is weird because why not just return the one he has on his wrist, at this point he just wants be a wife.
“keeps me away from girls you know” oh so now he is just using you as an escape mechanism “keeps me a step closer to you” your ears turned red “so you wanna date me?” you ask
“that’s very multifaceted question” you hit his shoulders “big meanie” he giggled knowing damn well he is down right bad for you
— JAKE SIM
don’t at him but he has kissed you, like a full blown kiss not just a peck, for training purposes right? yes for training purposes so you both don’t seem like complete losers with no experience when you start dating someone, you can at least put each others name on the resume “do you wanna kiss?”
“no” jake looked at you with puppy eyes “why not” just because this is not WHAT NORMAL FRIENDS DO MR.HOT AND GENIUS BESTIES “your breath smells bad” eyes out like that sad hamster on tiktok with violin bg playing “UGH WHATEVER” you kiss him as he smiles between the kisses, knowing you can’t resist him (damn hot mf) “love ya see you after the match”
— SUNGHOON PARK
takes you on dates, and i get that it’s normal but it’s not normal when he is taking you out alone with him every other week to ‘treat you’, because normal friends totally don’t eat at a fancy restaurant together or go on a late night drive without romantic feelings like girl who are you kidding? “don’t you ever think all this dates we go to without our other friends who you reject because you only want to be with me is the reason why people think we are dating”
“yes” he said cuddling you on his bed “and like this is not normal too you cuddling me, WAIT WHAT YES?” he kissed you forehead “yes but we aren’t just friends either you know” butterflies
— SUNOO KIM
cuddles all the time, whether it is out, in school or hanging out at each others houses, you both are all up each others, which has been pointed out so many times but sunoo really doesn’t care, he would rather feel your soft cheeks next to his than hear people about how this can be a whole scandal and lower the chances of you both getting any partners because people think you both are dating “sunoo can i get some water please i’m dehydrated” you try to wiggle out of the sofa you both were cuddling “nooo i will be cold”
“no you won’t be ugh get off me big baby” you try to push him as he gets up “so now you hate me” obviously he is faking it but you feel bad “im not i’m sorry sunoo what do you want me to do”
“date me”
— JUNGWON YANG
unusually long eye contact, and not the staring contest kinda way, but a loving and soft way, like he is expressing how much he loves you by staring at you, even when you are not looking at him he is always admiring you, asked at multiple occasions why he was staring at you and he just replies with ‘can’t i look at my best friend’ like sure so normal for a bestie to look at his bestie with love doe eyes. so the way he looks at you with undivided attention you might think he is listening to everything you are saying but no you got him wrong.
he humming at you talking about some dog you found cute on tiktok but he isn’t actually really listening and registering anything you are saying, he too busy admiring your plump lips that he would give anything to kiss right now “and then a blue cat said heya bro” he still looking at you “hmm that’s cool”
“YANG JUNGWON YOU ARE NOT LISTENING TO ME” you said shaking him “i guess not, it’s hard to control myself from kissing you and still listen to you, i can’t multitask like that”
— RIKI NISHIMURA
has your face as his alternate face lock id, also lets you use his phone, you want his phone real quick okay have it, you want to see through his photos okay have it, you want to use his insta okay use it, the only thing you are off limits is the boys gc because shady business goes down there, people really think you are dating your bestie and how he is the most honest and trustworthy bf ever? like no he has thousands of feet pics in his camera roll and you haven’t heard any explanation from him yet? how is he honest.
“you are going through my dms?” riki asks as you play around with his phone “yeah and if that bothers you don’t worry im texting this pretty girl who slide in your dms, soon you would have a cute girlfriend all because of my rizz” he snatched his phone from your hands “what the hell i thought i blocked her? yn why are texting her-”
“why? did you get offended? i’m sorry i shouldn’t have, no matter how close we are” he face palms like an old man done with everything “i’m not offended because you texted her, i’m offended at the fact that i have such a dumb friend who can’t see i want her more then just friends” there star struck aren’t you

🧷 ✧ ˚. ᵎᵎ 🎀 8th + 12th House Synastry Astrology Observations:
Tumblr media
I have known this boy since summer of 2021 and our dynamic to this day is still weird and unique. So I want to state specific scenarios that have occurred between us.
(I'll update with more observations as time goes on)
His Moon and Venus are in my 8th house, these planets make many tight aspects to my inner planets and those planets also aspect my 5th and 7th house ruler.
My Moon is in his 12th house and it also tightly squares his Neptune, my Moon also aspects his Lilith, 5th and 8th house ruler.
🌸 Staring at one another is very likely. The more avoidant you are the more uncomfortable you may feel with how reactive/how easy it is to care.
🌸 When things are romantic or there's been consistent flirting (without commitment) you two might share this unsaid loyalty to one another. At outings or parties you may make sure to not speak to other people while they are in the room.
Ex: Once at a party a girl was hugging him, the second I made eye contact with him he pushes the girl away, runs in the opposite direction, then comes up to me 5 minutes later to ask me a random question.
Ex. Once he was dating a girl and as I walked up near them (they were dancing), he pushes her away and waves at me and he's done this in other occasions.
Ex. When things were good with us (meaning zero commitment but felt good because of cute conversation) I made sure to not give other boys attention when he is in the room; it felt like a innate reaction within me to do that?
🌸 When we don't appease one another through the above examples the relationship feels more intense or more emotionally charged. It's like us being severely independent and careless with one another increases the tension and somehow creates more awkwardness. For me it feels like i'm fighting my own deep wishes; my heart vs my ego. (We have a Libra MC/Moon/Venus in our composite chart)
🌸 I don't even have his phone number and it feels like I am his ex.
🌸 I have never hung out with him one and one and we've never had sex yet it feels like we have had an intimate intense relationship.
Story: Throughout the years we would always run into each other and he was always more afraid of commitment, he has had two girlfriends but for some reason he's never pursued me on his own. Instead he stares and gets jealous when his friends talk to me.
🌸 Jealousy is very likely even if you're not a jealous person; if you're attracted to them you will get jealous over them/if their attention is towards another.
🌸 Once at a party I walk up to him to say hi but I had to leave the second I got there and as I hugged him he blurted "You're leaving?!" Just by my hug he knew I was upset to go without me saying anything.
🌸 Once at a different outing he was talking to another girl and I kept staring. As I saw them talk I then abruptly (and in a sad manner) walked away and he unknowingly shouted "Wait!"
🌸 What he feels; I feel. When there's an emotional disconnect I can feel the energy shift.
🌸 Staring is so likely. I can't help it. I just have to look at him. Gun to my head my eyes are locked in.
🌸 There's intense expectations that you hold for one another. You expect a certain energy, action, reaction or behavior from them; when it's not met you will feel a low.
🌸 When you are with them and the expectations are met, the high they can give you feels like a drug. I was once high for three days off a cute interaction we had.
🌸 I always wished he would just pull me in and kiss me, I once verbally told this to my sister; I said "I want him to want me so bad that he just grabs me, pulls me in and kisses me." Weeks later, while he was drunk he word for word restated that exact same sentence to me while holding my face. (He said "the second I saw you all I wanted to do is grab you, pull you in and kiss you, can i kiss you?)
🌸 I sometimes can't tell which my feelings are mine vs his. Its cloudy and I ask myself if what I feel is what he feels all the time.
🌸 You'll feel their thoughts and then talk yourself out of knowing "their mind," you'll brush it off and say how illogical it is to "know" what they are feeling.
🌸 The relationship is a constant tennis match of caring to letting go, sometimes you're so certain with moving on and then something, anything can pull you back in.
🌸 I have posted on my social media certain songs, playlists, quotes that were covert messages for him.
🌸 I carefully curate my snapchat stories in hopes it'll make him think of me or want me.
🌸 Idealizing is very common. He places me on this impossible pedestal, and I have said out loud that he "is everything I could ever wish for" and I don't even know him!
🌸 If there's a miscommunication or mishap there will be this deep need to fix the dynamic between you two.
Once my sister yelled at him because he was avoiding conversation (as he does usually) and 2 weeks later he throws a party. I know it sounds insane that he would have a party just to fix the weird dynamic but when I arrived he and his roommate made eye contact and he looked at his roommate saying "Walk with me so I can say hi to them" and the roommate knew immediately and smirked at me while passing.
🌸 I pull open a soft spot in him, I can just tell when he looks at me. Especially when we were talking more.
🌸 It feels safe when I hug him, once he just laid his head on my shoulder and that behavior came so naturally from him.
🌸 When his ego isn't involved he is more open with his feelings.
🌸 Once I grabbed his hand and he looked into my eyes and leaned down to kiss me; it felt so effortless as if we've done this before (we haven't).
🌸 I am SO emotionally unavailable, I always worry about PDA but in this case I dont care who see's me, I openly and willingly showcase my desire and it's so easy to do so. I just don't feel sick or worried about others seeing me be romantic with him, with others I fear when people perceive me with a boy romantically.
🌸 Not saying hi or not talking to him feels so much worse than if I went out of my way to say hi.
🌸 I always worry about making him feel pressured to say hi, I want him to feel ease with me and not worry or be burdened; he feels the same way towards me. (He's told me he doesn't want to pressure me to say hi)
🌸 In recent events and due to zero contact or communication I overly acted nonchalant and I acted like I didn't care but still that is the furthest of how I truly feel. Outwardly I avoided eye contact to make him feel more comfortable or less burdened but it eats at me. I act like I don't want him (to make the connection seem less intense) but I deeply do. He acted the same way towards me and mirrored my behavior.
🌸 I feel like I have to act carefree even when i'm not receiving his attention to make the connection feel less intense; but my body and facial reactions say otherwise no matter how hard I try.
🌸 One night at a party I impulsively went up to him and kissed him without words. He then looked at me, pulled me in and kissed me again. (Again with no words being said to either of us)
🌸 So many unsaid thoughts, feelings and desires. Never once have we ever verbalized our feelings for one another or about our connection and I have known him for 3 years.
🌸 Other people can see and feel the tension between us two.
🌸 I dream of him almost every single night (I am the planet person in the 12th house synastry).
🌸 My dreams showcase his soft and loving manner even when if in "reality" his actions are cold and dismissive. I receive such soft attention in my dreams and I don't understand why; it doesn't mirror his behavior in my waking life therefore I can't understand if it's my deep wishes or his subconscious wishes.
🌸 I had dream of him telling me "You make me feel more than any other girl I've met" and even in my dream I was confused by that statement.
🌸 The second I don't say hi or vice versa tension rises and it becomes more awkward in some manner. It's like not acknowledging one another causes this weird tense dynamic.
🌸 His ex hated me because she knew how he has liked me first. I found out she still viewed me as a threat to their relationship even when I didn't speak to him for 9 months?
🌸 Once he was blatantly drunk and after not seeing him for almost a year he still confessed how attracted he is towards me. He newly broke up with his ex (who hated me) and weeks after he confessed his attraction.
🌸 I have never dated him, and he gets more jealous with me than anyone else he's romantically officially been with. When his friends talk to me he feels threatened, angry and acts annoyed.
🌸 Once his friend was drunk and was non-stop talking to me saying how cute I was, 2 minutes later he runs up, grabs him by the neck and tells him to stop. The friend then avoided me after.
Story: Since he was jealous (and since we're not dating) he tried acting like he didn't care about that occurrence so you know what he does? I stare at him, he stares at me, then walks my way, stops, and turns at the girl next to me to start a conversation. Right. In. Front. Of. ME. Then I walk up to him after and he AVOIDS me. He hates that he gets jealous so to counteract that feeling he acts overly dismissive to "decrease" the emotional charge with us. It doesn't work.
🌸 We mirror each other's behaviors constantly.
🌸 He views me as this "perfect" person but that stops him from ever choosing me because he feels that he can't live up to the partner I deserve. (How do I know this? I just do)
🌸 The second and I mean very second there's a emotional block between you two the deep seated desire for them becomes less intense.
Ex: If you also share 12th house synastry with them, parts of their actions will feel like subtle hints that are meant for you. In essence, you want to believe that you are more important to them than others and you feel like you are. But once something comes to light or if you were shown that what you thought to be wasn't the case; this realization creates emotional distance and the desire for them (in that moment) shrinks. It feels as if the importance that you thought your presence gave them suddenly means nothing, and that feeling creates a instant "I'm never speaking to them again mentality"
🌸 With 8th and 12th house synastry, there’s a part of you that feels you’ll never compare to anyone else they encounter. Even if you two never dated, there’s a deep sense that the way they feel when they’re with you is unmatched and it's something you intuitively will feel. It's likely that there will be no set actions or verbal affirmations to confirm this knowing.
🌸 The emotional charge you feel when they are in the room with you can be so intense others around you can feel the unspoken desires you two share.
🌸 The intensity of this connection swings between unspoken loyalty and complete avoidance—one extreme driven by the fear of showing disinterest, and the other by the fear of being a burden. If you’re not preoccupied with displaying your loyalty to them in a room full of people, you find yourself avoiding eye contact or minimizing conversation to maintain a facade of “normalcy”—a normalcy that doesn’t truly exist in this connection.
🌸 I’ve noticed that I tend to trigger his jealous tendencies. A few weeks ago, I was at a bar, and at that point, we hadn’t even said hello to each other. I happened to be standing next to a random guy (it was a small table), and he immediately asked his friend who the guy next to me was. The friend, who we both know, turned around, looked at me, and then answered his question.
Another time, we were at a party, and again, we hadn’t really spoken at all. He looked over at a random guy and said something, to which the guy responded, “Ohhh, this girl?” while pointing at me. He just froze and didn’t turn back. It’s like he talks about me to everyone else—just not to me.
🌸 If you are very physically attracted to them, the want or desire for them can arise VERY quickly. You could verbally say "I'm over them" but the second they look visually attractive or if their actions cause emotional closeness, the want for them will reappear again.
🌸 I saw him last night and he was with another girl, when he is drunk he becomes more accustomed to not showing attention to other girls when I'm around. We made eye contact and he backed away from her but it was like he doesn't even realize or understand why he does these things? We've never dated and we haven't talked at allll in basically months. I miss him a lot and wish I had the chance or courage to talk to him more. I can't even remember if I said hi. :(

Synastry/Composite Observations 🌠
Tumblr media
(These are just some of my experiences and I really just wanna share what I learned with yall)💕
Synastry-
💙✨ Saturn square Venus can really just throw off the timing of a relationship. Well its less the timing and more of the fact of that the two people cant ever make their minds up and mature up for one another. And there are for sure alot of barriers that come withing this aspect one of them being that other people can set these two apart. In the couple that i saw this in the guy was Saturn and the woman was Venus. Venus was led on for almost 2 years while Saturn chased a different woman in that time. Until in may 2023 they started talking but their communication was off so Saturn broke it off. Now in december everyone finds out Saturn wants her back but Venus has moved on. So in their case it was a lack of maturity and indecisiveness.
💙✨ Venus conjunct Pluto makes the Venus person SO obsessive ESP if the Venus person has scorpio in their natal chart. Remember the Saturn guy from the first bullet point? He was the guy ive had a crush on for the past 3 years and in my scenario with him, hes the pluto in this case. Sadly it was unrequited but man this guy had me in a chokehold which was weird because I never wouldve thought id be attracted to someone like him. Its like no matter how far I go I cant ever forget about him its so frustrating. My Venus was conjunct his Pluto in Capricorn in my 3rd house so the way we talked to each other was very agressively but strangely we find comfort in it? Talking to him was easy too but lemme tell you when we argued WE ARGUED like it was HEATED. Our friend group always felt so uncomfortable whenever we went back and forth with each other. So yeah i would say really look at what house this conjunction happens in because for me it affected my house of mind, communication, and friends but if it falls in a deeper house like the 8th house the affects would be like 10x more magnified. Alot of people say its a sexual aspect but I really just think it depends on where it lands. I fell hard because im a plutonian person in general i have a Scorpio Moon and Lilith conjunct in the second house and my Venus in the 8th degree.
💙✨ Venus conjunct Moon brings alot of understanding and patience in a friendship/relationship. So ironically the Pluto guy also had his Capricorn Moon conjunct my Venus nd while we did argue alot and made me cry often I always had a soft spot for him. I felt like I understood him and we had many times where we joked around and laughed often. However Venus conjunct Moon can sometimes amplify your emotions to each other if theres other planets in contact with it. In a case like mine BOTH his Pluto and Moon conjuncted my Venus so most of the times our interactions stirred up obesessive and deeper emotions in me. Sometimes he triggered my trauma and i felt judged by him often but as me and him are getting older and are maturing more we stopped attacking each other and started being more honest with how we feel about things. I tell him about my personal struggles and he helps by giving me logical advice. Because of the fact that our aspect was in Capricorn it took us almost 4 years to have proper communication and be able to share our traumas with each other. I trust him alot even though we bicker often and even if he might not like me back hes still such a understanding friend and was there for me when i needed him and that itself is something to appreciate.
💙✨ If one persons Venus doesnt have alot of contact with your planets in your synastry but the other persons Venus has many aspects it may be unrequited. In my instance with the Pluto guy my Venus conjuncted his Moon, Pluto, and Jupiter and trined his Virgo Mars and Saturn while the only aspects his Leo Venus made to my planets was Venus opposition Sun and sextile Vertex. From the guy I really do believe he should have atleast some type of contact with your big six in order for him to feel something.
💙✨ So going back to the Venus and Saturn couple they also had Venus conjunct Lilith in Saggitarius and she was the one who got away. So like i said she was obsessed with him and everybody knew it too. I mean when she found out I also liked him she started hating me even though i never acted on my feelings and tried to supress it. He was the Lilith in this case and you can really see that hes attracted to her but theyre lowkey toxic sometimes. He blew hot and cold to her multiple times and everytime she got a boyfriend he wants her back like what?? She wouldve done anything for him but nah he sold. Theyre never gonna forget about each other and this aspect in my opinion has a very “the one that got away” type feel to it.
💙✨ Even if your planets dont make an aspect you can still feel it sometimes. I have a Gemini Mars and Pluto guy had a Virgo Mars and lemme tell you our arguements were BAD even though they didnt make an aspect. He always knew how to retaliate to whatever i said and always had a slick comment to throw in and my fucked up Gemini Mars self found that interesting which looking back at im hella concerned. I also cant forget that his Mars conjuncted my Saturn and my Mars squared his Saturn so the intensity came from all ends not just the signs.
Tumblr media
Onto Composite!
(Just a Disclaimer all of these observations are made off of me and the Pluto guy)
💙✨ Having a Taurus Sun in composite can mean that both people are stubborn. Im just gonna use my experience to explain this but having Taurus in the position of Sun can be either bad or good. Me and Pluto are young we’re both still in highschool so i know this wont be how we are gonna act forever but our relation to each other was a very slow process. It took YEARS for us to get out of the arguing with each other/ insulting each other phase since the 6th grade but damn sometimes i really feel like he doesnt ever get what im trying to say. We move so SLOW when it comes to our friendship and also communication because our Mercury is Conjunct the Sun in Taurus too. I read on a blog named awda on here that Taurus Sun couples never expect to catch feelings and its so true. To start with I never really liked him when i saw him back in middle school but in 8th grade i caught feelings bad nd since then i havent been able to forget about it. And weirdly alot of people ship us too. Ive read online that this placement means comfort with each other and while yes i have felt it sometimes, i feel that the comfort aspect of Taurus Sun in composite only applies if the chart is filled with trines and sextiles. Our composite is just squares and oppositions everywhere so we feel the stubborness and uncompromising aspect of the Taurus energy more than anything else. Ive done everything I possibly can to try to move on but im honestly stuck with him for a while now. Thats how Taurus Sun feels in my opinion. Its long lasting and not something you can run away from. People will ship you as a couple and yall might be like nooooo i would never but then boom one day you actually catch feelings. And who knows maybe one day he will I mean thats what my our older mutual friend tells me. I have no clue how he ever feels and I know its because of his natal Capricorn Moon but ive always held a soft spot for him deep down. Ive always wanted to look after him and wanted him to put his trust into me but it was never like that i guess. Maybe one day it will progress into something more who knows?
💙✨ Venus square Mars was another aspect that we held in alot of our midpoint charts like the progressed composite, the regular composite, and the davison chart. When i tell you how potent the energy of this aspect was to us even though we had Venus trine Mars in synastry. Ive always asked him why do you like arguing with me? Why do you like bothering me? But hes never really been able to give an answer. And i think thats just how this energy is. You start to find comfort in the disagreements and in a way it kept us stimulated. It was a way for me and him to connect and become friends. Dont get me wrong there were times where we genuinely got on each other nerves but with time we got more mature and learn how to talk things out and respect each others boundries. We still bicker obviously i really feel like thats never gonna go away lmao but its wayyyy more toned down now. Im not even trying to be delusional but i sometimes feel like hes always fixated on me the most in social situations and many people have pointed it out to me. Even if it might not be romantic it can still make the two people infatuated with each other. You know the saying “theres a fine line between love and hate” this is literally that aspect in a nutshell. You just have to figure out how to express your feelings for one another in a healthy way otherwise you can start to find the other person to be annoying and irritating. This aspect had me all over the place man liking someone and hating them at the same time was crazyyy.
💙✨Make sure you check your progressed composite too. Obviously relationships change and i think the progressed version of the chart is more realistic in how things are in the present time. In our regular chart we have Venus in Libra which i was like eh that doesnt really match us that well. But when i saw the progressed chart it showed that we have Venus in Scorpio conjunct Mercury in the 10th degree and it makes muchhhh more sense. The twisted way we talk to each other and the deep conversations feel more fitting to Scorpio than Libra. We recently started to open up to each other more and this progression happened in 2023 compared to in 2019 when we first met Mercury was conjunct the Sun in Taurus. So we went from stubborn arguements to being more comprehensive but snarky nonetheless. Also it explains me not losing feelings too lmao. Im only really speaking from my side ive had no clue how he felt but I know that he was just as clueless as me. In our original composite we had Sun square Mars and Mercury opposition Venus and we were like cats and dogs back then. Now, in 2024 we have Mercury conjunct Venus and Sun sextile moon along with Moon trine Venus and Mercury. The Sun square Mars aspect went away and were on the same wavelength alot more now. Its really interesting to see how it changed you should definitely check it out if you get the chance to.
💙✨Just something that I observed but all the girls he liked they had an aspect of venus trine moon and some type of positive aspect from venus and mars. All of them were weirdly unrequited though and i still dont know how to figure out how people get stuck in the friendzone using composite but i think it depends on the house and peoples natal charts. I dont have their birth time so i couldnt figure the house things out but look to see where the big six fall and what sign the ascendant is in.
I know I dont post on here anymore but I really hope yall enjoyed this!! See yall next time💕

What's One More?
Mike Schmidt x AFAB! Reader
Tumblr media
Summery: The house is all to you and Mike, which is a strange feeling to Mike as he begins to realize how things are changing. But change isn't always a bad thing, is it?
Tags: Porn with plot barely, no use of Y/N, Reader has female pronouns, set after the events of the FNaF movie, pre-established relationship, breeding kink, dirty talk/talking through it, oral sex (fem recieving), face fucking, vaginal fingering, pet names, possessive sex/actions, marking, hair pulling, mentions of drinking, multiple rounds, aftercare, multiple orgasms, teasing, dumbification, overstimulation, this is possibly filthier than Princess imma be fr.
Notes: Yes I'm working on requests. Yes I'm working on part II for 'Easy Money.' Yes I'm working on 50 million different projects + writers block that's preventing me from posting as much as I'd like. But in the meantime, *rattles can* COME GET Y'ALLS DICK.
▪︎◇{¤♧■♧¤}◇▪︎
The front door opened at the same time it does everyday, Mike slipping in quickly to evade the cold, bitter Febuary air that has turned his cheeks red while he called out his usual 'hello' to the house. His easy smile instantly appeared as soon as our eyes met, me standing at the stove giving the large pot of chilli its final stir just in time for his arrival home.
"Hey!" I said cheerfully, looking up from the boiling pot briefly before setting the lid back down, crossing the floor quickly to come collect his coat.
"Hey," he returned, leaning forward to press a soft kiss to my cheek as I undo his buttons, his hands coming to rest on my silk covered hips. "Never seen you in this before," he mumbled, pulling away slightly to get a better look.
"You like?" I ask, pushing the jacket off of his shoulders and folding it over my arms. "I've had this since freshman year. Found it in one of my boxes from the move." The robe is simple, thrifted but It'd been new when I'd gotten it. Emerald green and made from silk, if not silk like material- I'm no expert on fabrics, -reaching down to my ankles and showing off my curves, drawn tight around my waist to accent my figure. Simple floral patterns sewn into the collar decorate the robe, slightly darker than the rest of the fabric. His eyes wandered over my body, taking in the sight as he slowly removed his items from his pockets.
"You look nice," he said, almost sounding as if he was in a trance.
"Just nice?" I tease.
"The word 'motherly' comes to mind," he said. "Not- not in a weird way," he quickly added, blushing slightly. "Just- you cooking, dressed in that. Just kinda...." He's flustered, scratching at the back of his head as he tried to clarify what I already understand.
I smile at him, leaning closer. "Well, it's fitting," I teased.
It had been about a year since I moved in. Mike and I had met during a night out, our friends recognizing each other. Initially I thought the blonde he had been with- Vanessa, I would later learn, -had been a bit more than a friend. But after spending the night round a table, laughing and getting up one by one for drunken karaoke, Mike and I had made eye contact enough times to warrant my request for his number after I confirmed she wasn't.
"Seriously?" He asked when I'd passed him the notepad specifically meant for numbers that I kept in my purse.
"Yeah," I'd laughed, slightly- okay, maybe more than slightly -drunk. "You're hot."
I was three beers and one shot of straight tequila into the night when I'd asked, everyone beginning to debate who would call a taxi and who would ride with who. I felt rather confident.
His eyes narrowed, his cheeks red most likely from alcohol. Although he'd only had the one beer.
"Oh shit," I giggled stupidly. "Did I read things wrong? Because I thought-"
"No! You didn't," he quickly said, cutting me off. He scribbled his number down quickly, scratchy enough that I could barely read it, and he could sense that.
"You want me to write it again?" He asked sheepishly, scratching the back of his head.
"Maybe," I giggled. "Or I can have my friend ask Vanessa if I get it wrong."
I got it wrong. Twice. But that was my fault since I called as soon as I'd gotten home, bleary eyed and claiming to just be checking to see if he got home alright, which wasn't a total lie. Then he asked if I wanted to get Chinese the next day. And how am I supposed to say no to an offer like that?
When he first brought up his sister I think he expected me to run for the hills. God, no. Not a man committed to caring for his baby sister. Please.
When I'd met the girl she was sly, simply saying "Oh, you're who he won't talk about." Mike seemed ready to throttle her, and I was ready to step in and help take care of her however much they needed me to. Who could say no to a kid like that?
Three years in and Mike had been nervous asking for me to move in. We'd both had the idea, but we both were terrified that the other would immediately shoot it down. But it was almost ridiculous to worry about such a thing. Mike had visited me all the time with Abby in tow, I visited Mike. Eventually we were at the point that I was at his house more often than I was at my own apartment. And with Abby getting older and beginning to have a life of her own, one that I could tell Mike was anxious about her having, it was about time a serious talk be had about the future of our relationship.
"You know, married couples have better taxes," I said casually one day while huddled around the kitchen table, papers strewn all over the place and some even on the floor while I punched numbers into a calculator. I think that nearly killed Mike, who shot out air through his nose hard enough all of his coffee covered his face and hair.
Then a week later he'd flipped through channels lazily, commenting on how awful the channels were before landing on the one of the marketers selling jewelry for prices that could make you shit.
"That's a nice ring," he commented. "Don't you think?"
I looked up from my book, narrowing my eyes to focus my vision. "Ooh, it is," I agreed.
"What kind of rings do you like? Like, what's your favorite?" He asked.
"Subtle," I deadpanned, smiling. "I'm coming with you to pick it out."
We picked up a new set of housekeys first.
"Get a room," Abby groaned, wandering in to flop onto the couch.
"Don't flop, you'll hit your head," Mike and I both scolded, smiles growing as we heard the other. Abby simply groaned louder, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, that's punishment enough," I muttered, giggling slightly. I moved to the coat closet, hanging up Mike's jacket. "How was work?" I asked him.
Mike shrugged, leaning against the wall. "It was good. Long. Shop gets cold this time of year," he said.
"Well, dinner will help. It's done, by the way. Timed it just right," I said with a wide smile. Mike returned it, stepping closer to wrap his arms around me once more and say a soft 'thank you' before pressing his lips to mine.
"Seriously, a room," Abby groaned.
"There's one right there with a table that needs set. Go on," I said to her, gesturing towards the adjacent room. She rolled her eyes once more, getting up off the couch and grumbling as she made her way to the cabinets.
"Wow," Mike chuckled. "She's got attitude."
"She's fourteen, we should be lucky she hasn't killed us in her sleep," I said into his ear, laughing.
"Don't you mean ours?"
"No."
The dinner is nice. A scene right out of a book, all of us gathered around the table eating the warm food as we discuss our days, Mike and I shooting each other glances here or there when we think Abby, who's in the middle of some long story neither of us are truly able to give our attention towards, won't notice. Eventually his hand found mine under the table, grasping it gently and squeezing as I hold his gaze, smiling in the same idiotic manner he always brings out of me.
"It's tonight. I know it's short notice but all of my friends are going and her parents will be there," Abby said quickly, inturrupting our mental conversation with her pleading eyes.
"Wait a minute, back up. What's happening?" Mike said, blinking and refocusing.
"The sleepover," Abby said emphatically. "I didn't find out about it until today and my friends invited me. Can I go?"
Mike opened his mouth to respond, his eyes worried and glancing over to me.
"Who is this?" He asked.
"Lisa."
"Lisa?"
"Lisa Browning," I reminded him.
"Oh. And this is at her house?" He asked.
"Yes," Abby moaned in frustration, clearly impatient for her answer.
Mike and I glanced at each other. His eyes are unsure, looking to me for my thoughts.
"She visits them all the time, I don't see why not," I said. I turn to Abby. "Is her mom picking you up?"
"She can," Abby said quickly.
Mike is still unconvinced, I can tell by his grasp on my hand.
"You have that phone we bought you for Christmas?" I asked her. She nodded. Since recieving the cheap, purple Motorola she hadn't let it out of her grasp. "If you go, will you call us when you get there, when you guys are going to sleep? Any location change you'll run by us first?" I asked. Abby nodded again, her eyes shifting to Mike once more, wide with teenage desperation.
It was hard for Mike watching her get older. It would scare any parent, but take a man who'd watched his brother be kidnapped and his parents wilt away leaving him to step up? There were days Mike would wake hyperventilating, terrified something would happen to her if he didn't do something. It took convincing, but over time I had convinced him to relax, told him she was smart. Once I'd told him all the trouble I'd survived, he finally learned to catch his breath before jumping into several questions about how I was still alive with a new panic.
With a squeeze of my hand, he nodded.
"Check in. If you don't, I'll call her mom."
"Unnecessary, I'll call," Abby said, leaping from her seat and already dialing a number.
"Wash your plate!" Mike tried to tell her, but she was already gone.
"I'll get her plate, let her go," I chuckled. Mike sighs beside me, wiping his face with his hand.
"You think she'll be okay?" He asked me.
"I think fourteen year olds spend their days watching scary movies and MTV, nothing she won't do here," I said, taking a spoonful of chilli into my mouth. After I swallow I add, "Besides, it gives us the chance for some alone time."
That solidified the decision in his mind.
Much to Abby's embarrassment, Mike reminded Mrs. Browning to have Abby call us to check in, and with her reassurement he finally relaxed, walking back into the house once they're out of sight.
As I finish drying the dishes, I feel his hands settle on my hips, warm and large as he sinks his head into the crook of my neck.
"Where did the time go?" He mused, moreso to himself than to me.
"Feeling old?" I teased.
"Yes."
"Hot."
"Shut up," he groaned, laughing into my neck.
"'Oh my God, get a room,'" I groan in a fake voice, my laughter joining in.
"Are we gross?" He asked, wrinkling his nose.
"A little," I concede. "I mean, imagine how you're gonna feel when she brings home a boyfriend."
At that his eyes widen and he groans. "I don't wanna deal with teenage boys," he moaned, pulling away to lean against the counter in front of me.
"Oh, they're coming. Just you wait. I was this age when I got my first boyfriend," I warned him.
"Teenage boys are idiots," he said.
"Teenage girls are terrifying," I add. At that he nods, eyebrows raised in agreement. "Oh, she could bring home a girl instead!"
"You know what, I'd prefer that. Less trouble actually," he decided.
"You'll survive," I tell him, shaking my head as I set the dish inside the cabinet with a small clatter. He sighed, smiling to himself in thought.
"I remember when she was a baby. So tiny," he said softly. "You should've seen her. So cute. Smelled good, too."
"You've been smiling at babies a lot, you know," I teased, shutting the cabinet and putting away the dishcloth. "Something on your mind?"
Mike blushed, waving his hand. "Nah." He paused. "...kinda," he admitted. I chuckled. Every time we'd passed a couple our age walking through the store with a baby in tow, Mike was instantly softened. His usual automatic glare giving way to a little smile as he'd wave at the tiny human, maybe even making a face to make them laugh. It'd been entertaining when ones mother once caught him with his cheeks puffed out and eyes crossed, the baby letting out a huge shriek of laughter at the sight. He hid in the soup aisle for awhile after that while I tried not to cry from laughter.
"We still have plenty of Abby's old baby stuff in the garage, you know," I said. It wasn't a new conversation, we had both agreed it was something we wanted when the time came. "Spare room, stable jobs, great sex."
Mike's wide eyes watched me as I slowly trailed closer. "Good genetics," he mumbled.
"I don't see any reason we couldn't put any use to those things," I mused, wrapping my arms around his shoulders and leaning into him.
"I can't tell if you're serious," he said, his eyes narrowing.
"Even Abby would like it. Said we're taking forever as is," I said cooly. He laughed at that.
"No she didn't," he said.
"She did!"
"Abby, the one who can't even see us in the same room without threatening suicide?"
"Listen, babies are different," I laughed, shrugging. He eyed me carefully, looking me up and down before saying anything.
"You'd like that?" He asked finally, wrapping his arm around my waist.
"I'm living in your house, wearing a ring and making dinner for you and your little sister that I've been helping you raise for four years. What is one more commitment?" I asked.
"It's a human being," he pointed out.
"Oh, fuck that then. None of those shits are gonna live in my house," I deadpanned. He laughed, leaning in to catch my lips in a kiss.
"Be our human being," he said softly.
"That means it'll be funny," I said just as soft.
"It could have your eyes."
"Could have your nose."
"Yours is better."
"You're right."
He smacks my ass gently, chuckling as his eyes darken pleasantly. "Should we give it a try?" He asked, his voice low and rough in my ear.
"I'd say it's about time you asked."
Mike hiked me onto his shoulder, carrying me through the house and pushing open the door to our room as I giggled wildly, feeling the bed underneath of me as he flung me down, fingers searching for the ties of my robe.
"You're sure about this?" He asked, eyes watching me carefully. "This isn't just some sex thing?"
I laughed, feeling him struggle with the knot.
"Not a sex thing," I clarify. "Although admittedly hot. Do you need help?"
"The fuck did you do to this thing?" He asked, laughing but brows furrowed in frustration. I reached to pull on the string and give it one simple tug, making it come undone to reveal my simple underwear underneath.
"I like coming home to this," he said, his voice deep and husky. "You look so comfortable here. So perfect. House is so much brighter with you in it. Just so perfect."
His lips wander on my chest, first working on the valley between my breasts, his teeth nipping at the band of my bra. He tugged it upwards, snapping it against my skin harshly. A soft moan escapes me, and I allow my legs to fall open to offer him better access. He takes the opportunity, settling his body perfectly against mine as his lips begin to trail upwards to my throat.
"I love waking up next to you in the morning. I sleep so much easier with you here, feeling your breath against me as soon as I wake up. You've got creative methods to keep me up too when I don't want to be," he teased. His hands find my hips, squeezing them as he thrust our clothed hips together, making us both groan. "Are you already wet?" He asked me, nipping at my throat.
"Gotta have something to think about while I cook," I teased. He chuckled. His lips find purchase and begin sucking on my skin, creating a dark mark on the front of my throat that will only be properly covered by a sweater. I moaned slightly louder, rocking my hips slowly against his. His lips moved slightly higher, creating another, then repeating until a dotted line of dark hickies lay upon my throat, marking me all the way to just under my chin. As he sucked on the edge of my jawline, I let out a high pitched whine, digging my hands into my own hair as I tried to not rush through this.
"You sound so pretty like this," Mike said against my skin, his breath warm. "Only thing prettier is how you look." His warm hand cupped my cheek, his thumb stroking my cheekbone softly.
"Talk to me," he said softly, staying still aside from the gentle stroke of his thumb. His eyes are soft, black in the dim lighting from his blown out pupils. He looks so sweet, so ready to please. If I said the word he'd do anything so long as it made me happy.
I cup his face with my hands, pulling him towards me to capture his lips in a soft kiss. His lips are warm against mine, wet from his own spit from creating the dark marks against me. He moaned softly, his tongue swiping at my lower lip to ask permission for access. I grant it, parting my lips slightly and gasping as his tongue quickly slides in, deep in my mouth and dominating the kiss as his grasp on me tightened. It felt as though he was desperate, like a dying man trying to experience his last contact with another human being ever in his life. I tried to return the kiss with as much frenzy, but his hands on either side of my face, his grasp firm yet careful, his hips pinning me to the mattress made my mind begin to slip into a world of pleasure, not able to focus on anything except how good it felt to not be in control.
I could feel his breathing through his nose, still kissing me and exploring my mouth. It lasted a minute, two, three. When he finally pulled away, several gossamer threads of spit still connected us, disappearing into thin air as he looked down at me, his hand carefully stroking my forehead.
"I'm going to ask one more time," he said carefully. "This is your last chance. After this I'm not checking," he stressed. His breath is hot and heavy against me, and my hips roll against his in an attempt for friction. "Are you one hundred percent positive?" He asked, his eyes wide and eager as he placed carefully kisses along my cheeks. I nod quickly, desperate for more. Mike shook his head, pulling away slightly.
"Say it," he said. "Be clear."
I blushed, suddenly feeling shy for no real reason. "I'm completely sure," I said gently. "I want this."
"This as in sex or a kid?" He asked.
"Both," I answered.
"You're completely sure? Because if you want to back out that's completely-"
"Michael, I swear to fucking God if you don't hurry up and fuck me I'm gonna get you pregnant, see how you like-"
Mike scrambled off the bed, grabbing my ankles and pulling me roughly to the edge. I let out an involuntary yelp, giggling as he spread my legs wide and high, his lips and teeth pressing against my left ankle before quickly trailing downwards, biting and sucking quickly as he moaned wantingly.
"Eager?" I asked him lightly. He shoots me a look, biting down particularly hard on a spot almost under my knee before beginning his work on the inside of my thigh. His hand trailed up and down my right thigh, grazing his nails against my skin to make me shiver while he focused his mouth on the other.
"You taste delicious," he moaned, teeth sinking into my thigh as his nails dug in harshly, raking down until his hand came near my hips before raking back up to my knee. "Whatever soap you're using, keep using it."
I blush, moaning gently. My hips rolled towards his head, making him chuckle.
"Be patient," he chided.
"I am patient," I said defensively.
"Since when?" He asked, biting down on a new spot. I moan again, squirming against him as I felt a surge of warmth shoot from my head straight to my cunt. "Anytime I so much as look at you, you beg me to fuck you."
"That's not true," I said. His hand slaps my thigh, grabbing it roughly as he bit down once more, lower.
"Made me fuck you on the table last night just because you couldn't focus on your book," he tisked. "Now you're making me fuck you because you want a baby."
"You want one too," I reminded him.
"I want anything with you," he moaned against my skin. "Especially anything that makes you mine."
My hands stretch above my head, my fingers woven together. Mike's eyes caught on something, staring at my hand as his mouth drew closer to where I wanted it.
"Your ring looks so pretty," he moaned. "Love seeing you wear it. So glad I bought it. Love seeing people notice it on you."
"Yeah?" I asked. I tried to squeeze his head with my thighs, but his hands keep me open, even spreading my legs wider after my attempt.
"Remember that kid at the bar?" He asked, chuckling. The 'kid' in question had been in college, clearly drunk as he leaned against the bar next to me while I'd waited for Mike, who'd watched the interaction curiously from the window outside, asking if it hurt when I fell from heaven. A simple flash of my ring and the response of having someone catch me before I hit the ground sent him stumbling away to disappear once more into the crowd. "Poor fucker looked so disappointed," Mike said, sucking a dark spot into my thigh, making me squirm and throw my head back in pleasure.
"You like being possessive," I teased him. His hand smacked my thigh once more.
"I'm not the one who came and shoved her tongue down my throat when the bartender got a little too flirty for her taste," he said. His eyes sparkled, fingers massaging the spot tinged red from the abrasion.
"I did not shove my tongue down your throat," I said defensively.
"You pulled my hair like I was a bitch," he laughed. His hot air blew against my clothed cunt, making me gasp from stimulation. He picked up on this, blowing cold air against me before saying "She was just trying to get tipped."
"I know," I moaned. "I'd had a couple."
Mike licked at my covered pussy, flattening his tongue wide against me as he licked a long, hot stripe from bottom to top, sucking at my clit through the wet cotton once he reached it. I moaned into the pillow beside me, muffling my cries. His hand reached up and snatched it from me, throwing it off the bed as he repeatedly licked, gaining speed as his dark eyes watched me.
"Okay, maybe we're both possessive," I conceded, bucking my hips against his face. He hummed happily, his large hands cupping my asscheeks and lifting my hips higher off the bed as he squeezed the cool flesh.
"I like it," he said. "Like that I won't even have to do anything to show you're mine now after this."
I feel my stomach flutter at his words, a blush dusting my cheeks.
"It may take a couple tries," I tell him.
"We've got all night," he said breathily.
"Until Abby calls," I reminded him. He groaned at that. "She's not gonna call, we both know that," I laughed.
"Not my problem right now," he said. His fingers hooked around the band of my underwear, pulling them away from me harshly. "You are."
"A problem?" I said in mock offense. "Well, I guess if that's what I am, I'll take my goods elsewhere." I huffed haughtily, twisting away from him and turning onto my stomach. The motion helped Mike bring my underwear to my ankles as I began to crawl away. He tugged them off fully, then grabbed my ankles once more to return me to the edge of the bed. I yelped once more, grabbing at the sheets and dragging them down with me. Mike spread me open once more and immediately shoved his tongue as deep inside of me as he could, holding my hips up and legs open as he tongue fucked me in earnest. I cried out, grinding my hips against his face. I clutched a pillow to my face, crying and even screaming into it when his lips wrapped around my clit, sucking harshly at just the right spot to make me cum with barely a warning. Mike had been pleased as punch when he figured out just the right angle the very first time. It was his favorite, throwing me into orgasm without any preparation to strike me dumb and overstimulated. There were times he'd focus on my clit for what felt like hours, tugging and licking to figure out what made me cum the fastest, the hardest, sometimes even managing to make me paint his face, and once his hair. He grinned so wide I almost thought his face would split open when he accomplished that.
He pulled away from my cunt for just a moment, his voice deep and commanding. "Let me hear you," he said. He buried himself in my cunt once more. I could feel his jaw moving, his bottom lip moving against my clit as his tongue slipped in and out, creating lewd, nasty noises that filled the air. I moaned into my pillow, hardly able to think. His hand smacked my ass hard before he pulled away once more. "Don't make me ask again, woman."
I raised my head to say something, but the words escaped me as I felt his tongue dive in once more, curling to scoop my slick into his mouth. He moaned at the taste, his hand roughly grabbing at my ass. All that spilled from my mouth were long, broken moans as I fucked his face, gutturally pleading for more. He flipped me onto my back roughly before spreading the lips of my soaked pussy apart, attaching his lips quickly and sucking at that perfect spot. I screamed, shrill and high as though I'd been stabbed while he giggled in excitement against me. The vibrations of his voice against my clit sent me higher, my head digging against the sheets as my back arched high away from the bed. My hands slapped against the bed, my legs trembling as I rode his face. Lost to the world, Mike is the only thing that grounds me, his fingers gently tracing patterns against the insides of my thighs while he watched me come undone with nothing but love and pride in his eyes.
He didn't relent, releasing my clit to lap up my glistening cum eagerly before returning to the bundle of nerves, flicking his tongue against it before sucking it once more, bringing me back to the same edge as I begged for mercy.
"Gonna scream, gonna scream, gonna-" my harsh whispers turned into a scream once more as I cum again, my hands finding his dark curls to force him to stay against me, my hips grinding harshly to fuck my clit into his mouth properly. His eyes relaxed, looking completely lovesick as I muttered rapid praises to him, tugging on his hair hard enough to make his eyes water. He moaned seemingly with no control against me, face red as he obeyed with no complaint.
"So good," I tell him. "Taking me so well. Letting me fuck your face like I own you. Fuck my face."
I felt his fingers find my entrance, slipping two inside of me with no hesitation as cum dribbled out of me. I clenched around his digits, my voice breaking as he massaged my top wall, searching inside of me to help me find a new peak. He moaned against my clit, eyes wide and begging for more as he watched me carefully. When his fingers brushed against that perfect spot, the one that makes me fall silent, he knows he's struck gold. His fingers begin slamming into my g-spot, curling and fucking me until I screamed out one more time, my body going limp as my eyes rolled to the back of my head. It's like I speak in tongues, the only language I'll probably ever be able to speak again after what he's done to me. I shake terribly as he sucks a few more smaller orgasms out of me, milking me for all I'm worth before pulling away, standing tall and chuckling as he slipped his middle and ring finger into his mouth, cleaning them with his tongue. His face and chest are covered with me, the shine of his gold ring dulled from the dried cum. He pulled his soaked shirt off of himself, flinging it into a corner before walking around to the side of the bed, gently sitting down next to my head to stroke my forehead.
"You okay?" He asked gently, smiling proudly. I moan in response.
"Need some water?" He asked, leaning closer to press a kiss to my cheek. I can smell myself on him, thick and heady. I moan again, trying to nod but unable to. "Maybe a snack?"
At that I grab at him, pulling him closer to press his lips against mine. He allowed it, humming happily against me as he gives me a gentle kiss, loving and careful as though I could break easily. I probably could.
I whined when he pulled away, but I'm instantly sated as he scooped me into his arms, pulling me against his chest to rest us properly against the headboard of our bed. He leaned over to open a drawer on his nightstand, pulling out one of the water bottles we kept in there. Carefully he moved me into a better sitting position, then opened the bottle and held it against my lips.
"Drink," he said softly. I accept it, gulping the cold liquid as my senses begin to return to me one by one. "Good girl."
Once I finished he placed it on top of the nightstand, then held me to his chest once more to lay against the bed.
"Good warm-up?" He asked me.
"Not entirely sure that didn't do the trick right there," I said. My voice is rough, threatening to break with each word. Mike laughed loudly, his chest rumbling against my ear.
"That good?" He asked, smiling widely.
"I'm ruined for anyone else," I told him. His fingers grazed my jaw, tilting my face to meet his eyes.
"Good."
His lips are gentle as they guide me back into a kiss. It's me who deepens it, grabbing the hair at the nape of his neck, silently pleading for him to continue. He takes the hint, one hand holding the back of my neck to keep my mouth close, the other trailing down my chest, fingers making quick work of the clasp on the front of my bra. He pushes the item away, cupping my right breast gently as his thumb gently strokes across my nipple, making it harden underneath his calloused touch, making me gasp.
"So sensitive," he remarked, smirking. "Could do anything to these and you'd be my willing bitch. Such a pretty girl."
I moaned eagerly into his mouth, tugging at his hair and pressing my chest against his touch. He adjusts my body, guiding me to straddle his lap properly as he guided the robe off of my shoulders, letting the material fall to my elbows. He pulled away from the kiss, admiring the hickies adorning the column of my throat.
"So pretty," he mused. His finger trailed from under my chin to the valley of my breasts, then back up again. "Do you know how pretty you are?"
"You tell me every day," I laughed softly, blushing. He hummed, his arms moving to support my upper body as he leaned me back.
"Doesn't mean you know," he said. He sucked new dark spots onto my chest, continuing his trail until it ends at the bottom of my ribcage. "Dressed so pretty for me, wearing nothing under your pretty robe. Keeping yourself easily accessible like the pretty girl you are."
It was easily his favorite nickname for me, calling me 'pretty girl' more often than my own name. Sometimes I think he only calls me by my name just to remind me he does know it, although I won't lie that I'm disappointed when he does it. The first time he called me by his favorite name was the first time we had sex. He was balls deep and panting, desperate for air as he pumped in and out of me. I think it had slipped out by mistake, based on the way his eyes widened after he said it. He was so shy in the beginning, his inexperience obvious but not damning. It was cute.
His lips trailed from the bottom of my ribcage until he found the bottom of my left breast, accenting it with little marks wherever his mouth landed.
"You want my cock?" He asked me, breath fanning over my breast. I nodded eagerly. "Use your words," he reminded me.
"Yes please," I said quietly. He laughed against my skin, nipping close to my nipple.
"Aw, she has manners," he said sweetly. I groaned, rolling my eyes. "Don't be a brat." He chided at my response. I smiled at him.
"Or what?" I asked innocently.
"Or I'll find something else to do," he said.
"Like?" I pressed.
"Like fuck myself until there's nothing left for you to take," he said smugly.
"You're no fun."
"I'm very fun, that's why you're going to behave."
"It's more fun if I don't."
At that he latches onto my hard nipple, biting and lavving his tongue over it while moaning greedily, watching me through his dark lashes as I leaned back, pressing my chest against him as much as I could, rocking my hips against his as I lost all other thought.
"There she is," he said, his voice low and gravely. "There's my girl."
He layed me down gently, spreading my legs wide open for him. He undid his jeans, taking out his cock and stroking it while he admired me from above.
"Tempted to just watch you," he said, his hand slowly trailing up and down his throbbing length. "You look so perfect, all red and dazed."
I whined, reaching for him and wrapping my own hand around his cock, stroking him at a slightly faster pace.
"There you go," he crooned. "Get it ready."
I pumped with more vigor, watching his face as I felt him twitch under my grasp. Deciding he was satisfied he gently grabbed my wrist and pinned it above my head, then guided himself to my entrance.
"How do you want me, sweet girl?" He asked softly, smiling above me.
"I don't wanna remember my own name," I said quickly. "If I can walk across this room by the end of it, you need to try again."
He raised his eyebrows, smiling down at me. "Eager?" He teased.
My response is a sudden moan, my cunt clenching around his thick cock as he sinks into me, burying himself to the hilt and making me feel as though he'll split me in two.
"You're tight," he groaned in my ear. "You want it fast?"
"Yes."
He grabbed the back of my knees, pressing them to my shoulders as he pistoned in and out of me rapidly, moaning at the feeling of my cunt swallowing him eagerly, clenching at every vein, every inch, slick and desperate for his seed.
"It'll take better like this," he moaned. His jaw is slack, panting as his balls slap against my ass, heavy and making me clench with each thrust. "Been thinking about this so long.'
I tried to respond, but all that escapes me are the tongues from earlier, moaning gibberish as all I can focus on is him fucking me into stupidity.
"You'd look so pretty with a baby on your hip. My baby," he groaned. His tip finds my g-spot, making me cry out loudly.
"Right there," I chanted quickly, eyes rolling to the back of my head.
"Yeah? That the spot?" He asked. "Can you hold this knee for me, baby?"
My body automatically obeyed, quickly holding one of my knees right against my body as he moved his hand to settle on my lower stomach, pressing down as he fucked me hard enough to make a small bulge whenever he slammed his dick fully into me.
"So cute," he praised. "Such a pretty fuckin' pussy. You know that?" I moan, my vision and thought completely fucked.
"I keep telling you to use." Thrust. "Your." Thrust. "Words." His third pointed thrust tears a scream from my throat, making him smile. "Does this sound like a suggestion? Because I promise you that it's not."
"I have a pretty pussy," I moaned without second thought. My voice is soft and frail as I chant the phrase over and over, not stopping even as he cooed sweet praises in my ear.
"Gonna look so pretty with my baby," he said. The smacking of our skin is loud, echoing through the room with each new thrust. "Maybe I'll give you another." His balls stick to my skin, tacky from my cum that drips out of me onto the newly washed sheets. "Just keep giving you my kids until I can't anymore. God, I hope this fucking takes."
I'm still chanting the phrase, stupid and willing to do anything so long as it means I will be rewarded with his cock. He smiled down at me, his eyes fluttering shut as my pussy swallows him whole again and again.
"Need you to cum baby," he said, his voice strained. "It'll take better if you do."
"I'm close, Mikey," I whined. It was a nickname I only used in times like these, too stupid to say his name properly.
His hand shifts lower on my belly, thumb snaking down to rub tight circles onto my hard, pulsing clit.
"Gonna make you mine. Gonna make you a mother." He is completely lost to the world, eyes shut in bliss as his thrusts grow deep and shallow, making me begin to grow quiet as I focus on my orgasm. "Jesus Christ, I love you."
A loud cry escapes me as my muscles contract around him one final time, hard enough I can tell it almost pushes him out of me completely. At the feeling of such a strong grasp Mike comes undone too, painting the inside of my cunt a pretty, pearlescent white as he unloads right next to my cervix, burying himself as deep as he can before resuming his pace with newfound vigor, moaning with every new thrust.
"Again," he moaned. His chest presses against mine, our bodies intertwined into such a tight mating press it's hard to tell where I end and he begins. "Wanna make sure it takes. Wanna make sure it takes."
I can't help but laugh in pleasure, eyes rolling to the back of my head as I nodded happily, taking as much as he was willing to give me.
"I'm not gonna last long," I said, the overstimulation already turning my face red as I felt the knot in my stomach begin to tighten once more.
"Good," he growled. "I'm not gonna stop until I fucking break you."
His words send me over the edge again, my voice louder this time as I begged him to break me, to fill me, to-
Much to our immediate frustration, it turns out Abby did remember to call, making Mike yell into the bed in frustration before he slipped out of me to race to the living room, making quick work of the conversation before almost slamming the phone down in excitement, rushing down the hall once more to return to the immediate task at hand.
"Where was I?" He asked me, mischief sparkling in his eyes as he quickly climbed back on top of me.
"You were telling me you want like six kids right before damning the one we're already raising," I teased, smiling.
"Well, maybe not six," he admitted. He glanced down to my aching cunt, admiring the sight of our mixed cum leaking out before sliding his dick back inside to plug the hole. "But what's one more?"
¤▪︎{♧}▪︎¤
This was fucking filthy. I have no apologies. Take your problems up with God, he's the one who put me on this earth.

HybridCat!Bachira x Fem!Reader
| All characters are age up!
Sypnosis: Bachira is so clingy and needy asf. He is quite bratty but only does that to get your attention tease you and annoy you. He who loves to be pampered and spoiled to your friendly affection but he sees it romantically. Dw it's smut and fluff :DD practically him being submissive but wild in the bedroom.
♛┈⛧┈┈•༶༶•┈┈⛧┈♛.・゜゜・༶•┈┈⛧┈♛
Warnings!: Minors do not interact! NSFW, ofc it's smut. overstimulation, obsession implies to reader, reader gets dumb fucked, breeding kink, praise kink, dacryphilia, and honestly it's badly written but it's been fueled by my itching brain so yeah. Pronoun for the reader is you.
[word count: 2.3k]
| thank you my dear beta reader for correcting my horrendous grammar and spellings. And no, I am not deeply sorry for making you have seizures >:D
You let him stay at your house since you never had any company other than yourself. The house you own was previously filled with laughter and tears with your family but as time goes by, only what's left was a lone tearing eyes and laughs from you.
The cat introduces himself and his name is Bachira Meguru. He was practically behaving like a good kid in the first two weeks but as the time grows between the two of you, he's starting to get a little more naughty.
First, he made pranks to laugh at you, yeah it was all fun and games that you also enjoy because he's just startling you. Not until he started to get more rabid, scratching at your door when you left him outside of your room at 2 am after you found out that he's sneaking into your bedroom. *Oh darling, he just wants some cuddles with you* Day after day, his pranks and teasing got a little worse. But you paid it no mind. Thinking that it's just his weird ass shenanigans and his cat personality on its own nature. And no, you don't know why he's being like this. *In fact he actually has a big crush on you ever since you picked him up in the cold streets.*
"Hehe~ You're so cute~" You sneered at him before he let out a chuckle as he nuzzled his head on your shoulder. Making you wonder how he could be so touchy whenever you're sitting or even laying down —always making sure to be there and make physical contact with you. Could be snuggling, or sometimes like this —laying his weight against you, or just simply fiddling with your hands. You tried to shake him off from your shoulder but he clings to you, refusing to let go. His head lays on your warm thigh —planning to sleep on your lap. His purrs are loud enough to hear despite the TV's volume. He closed his eyes while his thumb rests on his mouth *like a small baby.* You couldn't help but to melt on his adorable nature which made your hand automatically caress his hair, petting him to sleep.
After a few hours, your legs are feeling sore. You gently shake him awake but instead he grabbed your wrist and cupped it to his cheek, still sleeping like there's no tomorrow. You groaned and tap his cheek. "Silly cat... Wake up! " He opened his eyes, feeling groggy. He then nips your finger. "Ow! What the hell?! " He didn't release his grip on your wrist, instead he intertwined his hand with yours.
"Morning, my little bunny~" You snickered at his sudden name calling *trying to ignore 'my'* but deep down, that actually made you blush. But the fact that he is still on your sore lap, you frustratingly whined. "Get off me! You're heavy... " You fake your pouting while poking his supple cheek with your free hand. He grunts, however, thanks to your luck, he actually got off from your lap. To your surprise, he wrapped his tail on your waist.
"Where are you going...?" Bachira asked as he scratched his eyes. Without a second thought, his arm slipped in to hug yours on his side —not letting you go until you gave him affection.
"I'm not going anywhere– Oh.. Right.. I just remembered something. Do you wanna pay them a visit? You know, our new neighbor who just moved in yesterday?" Bachira grimaced as he coiled his tail on your waist.
"No. I don't care about them. " Your eyebrows furrowed, giving him a strained smile.
"I heard that they also have a cat! Don't you wanna meet them? There’s a chance she could be your mate~" Your finger teasingly poked his cheek but his golden eyes went dark.
There is definitely something weird about him —he was not too happy that you mentioned about the neighbor's cat to be with him. Bachira suddenly pounced on you and pinned you down on the couch which made you yelp unwantedly. Bachira is currently topping you with his slender yet muscular body which is covered with the thick baggy fabric of his hoodie and joggers.
"But baby... You're my mate. "
"..."
You were utterly speechless, shocked, and helplessly bound from his tight grip on your feeble wrists —pinning you down on the couch domineeringly. Bachira is closely inching to your face as he stares at your plushy lips.
"What do you... mean?"
"Mine."
"Wha—" Your words cut off suddenly as he crashes his lips onto yours. He closed the gap between you then trailed his hand to your head while the other caress your cheek. Your brain is too shocked to process what he just said.
"Mmh! Let go!" You tried to push him off but he's hugging you so tightly while deepening the kiss. His tongue caved into your moistened mouth after prying it open, humming and moaning while teasing your tongue with his. The wet noises surround the room, *music to your ears* you can't help but to shut your eyes tight—giving up on resisting—too intoxicated to his sloppy kiss.
Your arms glide to his neck, wrapping him in your embrace. There's no need for words, his gaze is enough to lure you into his lust. A slim strand of saliva connected your mouths together for a second as the both of you broke apart.
"Pretty bunny... Let me fuck you, yeah?"
Without letting you answer, he tore off your clothes leaving you in your underwear. He attacked your neck while ridding himself of his own clothes. "Look so pretty like this~" He murmured as he continued nipping your neck leaving marks.
Every touch of his sends a cold shiver to your loins. He sunk his teeth to your collarbone, marking you as his. A pained moan slipped out from your mouth and your nails dug to his scalp, fueling him to go further.
His skilled digits trailed down your covered core, subtly sliding over it "So cute~ All wet, just for me. " He smugly whispered as you bit your lower lip trying to muffle the mewl threatening to slip out of your lips. A hand cupped your cheek, gazing at you with his lustful golden orbs. He strokes the thin fabric covering your wet mound painstakingly slow, making your hips move heedlessly.
His hands stripped off your underwear, tossed it somewhere on the ground, completely exposing your sloppy drenched slit. You have never been so flustered before, you're completely naked —exposing your flawless body to his greedy eyes. He stared at you for a while, studying your body in every inch, completely mesmerized.
His slender fingers teasing your bud "My bunny... Don't worry, I'll be gentle~" His voice murmured in a husky whisper next to your ear. *biggest lie you'll ever hear* Your muffled moans softly slipped out from your mouth while grasping the utmost top of the back pillow. His lubricated finger from your juices made its way inside your gummy walls, making you mewl and widen your eyes.
This strange unfamiliarity felt so good, pleasuring you as he gently moved his finger back and forth between your walls. You close your eyes at the overwhelming sensation, letting yourself just feel Bachira’s finger inside you as they press and explore the sensitive parts of your body. His eyes never left you, watching you closely and studying your sensitive reactions. His ears twitch whenever you moan and whimper for him —those obscene sounds you make are music to his ears, he would gladly play it on repeat all day just to make his mood better.
You hitched as he kept hitting the same sweet spot of yours—curling and angling his finger as you felt the building knot in your stomach. Another finger slipped easily inside of your tight wet folds. Your mouth gaped and eyes rolled back as his two digits hastingly impaled you. The sound of your wet mound and your lewd moans got him all aroused.
He smirked, knowing that you're near your climax. Your hands snake to his back and dig your nails as you feel your orgasm blow in soon. His pace didn't stop—he giggled as his fingers got sucked tightly inside your folds. After a few quick strokes, your back arched and your toes curled —you reached your overwhelming climax while taking your heavy breaths. He pulled out his fingers then peppered you with his kisses on your cheeks.
".. Baby.. We're not done yet. "
"H-Huh? But.. Ah–! "
You felt his hardened throbbing length reposed on your cunt after spreading your legs wider. He couldn't hide his blush and looked at you with indefinite lust in his honey golden eyes. His hand cupped your knee and his other interlocked with yours. "Please? May I~? " He sounds so needy and probably will never back down no matter what. He wants to fill you in with his member. He wants to be inside of you. And yes, he's desperate.
In the corner of your eyes, you saw how big he was. You wondered if you could actually take it. Maybe it will destroy you, yet you cannot stop the greedy cat in front of you. Leaving you with no other choice, you nodded slowly —still not used to how things turned out this way. Bachira could never be much happier and slid his length inside of your tight wet slit slowly. He moaned and gasped as he entered, filling you in with his fat cock.
"Pull it out! It hurts! " He leaned closer, kissing your tears on your cheeks. "Shh.. It won't take long. I'll have you bouncing on me later~" Bachira completely ignored your whines as he started to move. He pulls and pushes deeply inside of you slowly, making you knit your brows and pained moans skid out from your mouth.
You can feel his hot member throb inside of you. "So fucking tight... God... You're so good.. My bunny~" His whimpers pivot closely next to your ears. His free hand creeped on your tit, teasing your hardened nipple. The sensation made you almost lose your mind, making you feel over the edge. His cock started to pick up the pace, kissing your cervix and hitting your g-spot. Your wet teary eyes blubbers, making lewd moans that you've never even heard before, then the pleasure starts to take over —the rush of dopamine makes you reach your second orgasm— you gasped and accidentally scratched his back with your nails.
"F-Fuck! Ah! S-Stop! "
He didn't pull out just yet, still hitting your abused pussy with a rapturous impale after cumming on his dick. A rim of your juices circles on his length—making him fasten his pace once more. Your chest is torn of your broken moans, which bubble up in whimpers and hiccups up on your throat. Your body isn't cooperating with you anymore, and the only sense you can summon is sufficient to repeat the single thought that is on your mind—Bachira. You moaned his name loudly, and your hips rolled with his. He grunts, letting out a whimper.
"Gonna fill you up with my kittens, yeah?...'M gonna fill you up inside~"
He held you closely to his chiseled chest—thrusting rapidly. Your head falls back, mouth hang open as his hips explode into you with the ferocity of a man possessed. He strikes that spot inside you. You felt his hot thick liquid buried inside of you as your legs trembled against his, your calves digging into his sides. Both of you catching your ragged breaths. He pulled his length out of your filled pussy with his cum—spilling out till it reached the foam.
"... That's bad... My bunny, you should take everything in! " He stammered before picking you up, carrying your tired body into a bridal style. He threw you in your bed, topping you with his hardened cock—rocking it slowly on top of your battered cunt. His sinister eyes didn't subside at all. He plants kisses on your stomach as he giggles—like a kid got to play with their favorite toy.
"My mate looks so pretty like this~" He lifted one of your legs and placed it on his shoulder. He nips at your inner thigh, marking you once more. You couldn't help but to moan after slipping his cock into your cum-filled pussy—sending overstimulating shocks to your body.
"Hngh.. It goddamn hurts… " You whimpered, panting, and composing your breath as he fucks you continuously—not stopping till dawn kiss your skin— molding your mound mercilessly into the shape of his inhumanely size cock. Your eyes rolled back, lips parting slightly as your tongue hangs out of your mouth. Carelessly creating loud flowing moans, frolically thrusting his dick in and out of you.
You voice out his name, babbling muffled whimpers about how good he is. In less than twenty minutes, he broke you entirely, and he's so pleased with himself. You're now topping him after he lifted you, enforcely shifting positions on the bed. His hands tightened around your hips, drawing you in as his hips moved. He continued to thrust at you quickly while continuing to kiss your cervix and stroke your g-spot. Despite your desperate attempts to regain your breath, you whimpered, shivered, and begged for more as you lay on the bed.
Soon afterward, he came to your exhausted pussy once more. His warm, creamy liquid filled you up again. Tears were streaming down your cheeks, and all you could manage was a muffled whimper. As you attempt to form words, your lips twitch. He gave his best effort to comfort your broken body, licking and kissing your salty tears.
"My bunny, you're such a good girl… You're so good, ahh~… Let's have another round, shall we? "
When he was done talking, he grinned. His hands descend to your back and firmly grasp you, allowing his still-rock-hard dick to slide in.

Ruben Dias x Reader - Brotherly Love Part 5/6
Tumblr media
Summary - The sequel to The Houseguest where Ruben and Reader have been dating long distance for a year. The two of them finally plans to spend a holiday together, but to Readers suprise and disappointment, Ruben brings her brother Bernardo with them.
Enjoy!
Ruben was giving you the cold shoulder after your argument the other day. The worst part about that is now Bernardo really had him all to himself. You felt like the silly little sister, having a crush on her brother's best friend. And yes, of course you still had feelings for Ruben. To you he was the love of your life. Perhaps that's what disappointed you the most, the fact that Ruben didn't fight for your love.
"Y/N can I talk to you for a minute?" Thomas asked, urging you to take a walk with him in the backyard.
"What's up?"
Believe it or not, it was the first time Thomas had adressed you by name during your entire stay at the villa. For the most part he had been avoiding eye contact with you and acted quite anxiously whenever you were around you. Which was odd because despite how strange it was that your sister was dating your first love, you had zero problems with it. Their feelings for each seemed real which was a miracle in itself considering how cazy Anita was.
"I wanted to ask you somthing?" Thomas said as the two of you paced in the backyard, away from the villa.
"Ask me what?"
"Well...usually I'm meant to go to your parents for this question but to me your opinion matters too."
"Okay... my opinion of what? Why are you being weird Thomas?"
"I'm not being weird I'm just nervous."
You chuckled. "Nervous about what?"
He took a deep breath.
You frowned, realizing what a train wreck he actually was. "It's okay Thomas, you can tell me." You reassured.
He nodded. "I want to ask your sister to merry me, but I won't ask her unless it's okay with you."
You froze, stupefied by the question. Such a big question.
"Thomas I....I don't think...."
"You don't have to give me an answer right now. I'm not planning on doing it until we get back home. But I want you to at least think about it. And perhaps not tell Bernardo about it."
"Tell Bernardo about what?"
Just then he wandered into the backyard, Bernardo, with grocery bags in his hands. You could see Ruben by the car, unloading more bags.
"Tell me what Thomas?" He said, putting down the groceries. He had overhead your conversation or at least the last part of it.
"I....I was talking to your sister."
"Yeah, I know. But you said my name didn't you?"
"I did but...."
"What we were talking about is none of your business Bernardo." You defended.
It was true,  Bernardo was terrible at keeping secrets. You understood why Thomas wanted to keep his plans to propose to Anita exclusively between the two of you.
"But if he told you he could tell me, no?" Bernardo argued,  like the child he was. Needless to say his behavior often rubbed off on you too.
"What he said has nothing to do with you."
"Great, so why does it matter if he tells me or not?"
"Because."
"Because?"
"Yes, because...it's none of your business period."
"What's going on?"
You drew back a little as Ruben came into the backyard. Thomas noticed this and shot you a blank stare.
"It's Y/N." Bernardo blamed. "She and Thomas are keeping secrets, saying it's none of our business."
"Oh." Ruben's faltered gaze shifted between you and Thomas.
"It's not like that. We were just talking." You said.
"About what?"
You rolled your eyes. "Don't start Bernardo."
"Women." He sighed and left with the groceries towards the house. Ruben lingered a bit longer, appearing to want to say somthing to you. He hesitated though, following Bernardo into the house.
"Are you two good?" Thomas asked.
"No. No we are not."
Your mood was gloomy for the rest of that day. Seeing Thomas and Anita during dinner didn't help. They were laughing and making jokes. Under the table their hands were intertwined and their feet nudging. A couple in love.
"Y/N, pass me the salt honey."
"Y/N?"
"Huh?" Your attention was brought back to the table. Your parents were looking at you expectantly.
"Is everything alright?" Your mom asked.
"Um...yeah, sure." You passed your dad the salt. He took it skeptically.
"You don't seem fine."
A hand was brought to your temple. You groaned. "I'm fine mom. I assure you that I don't have a fever."
"What is it then, you've been quiet all night."
Everyone's attention was brought to you. You glanced up to see Ruben looking at you with furrowed brows.
"I see." Your mother mumbled. "Well your brother and Ruben will be back for the next holiday. In the mean time I'm sure you and Ruben can arrange to see each during the weekends. It's not that far for you to drive down from university to Lisabon, right honey?"
"Right."
You took a bite of your food. Your parents were the only once oblivious to your current relationship status with Ruben. Everyone else seemed to have picked up that there was trouble in paradise.
"When are you leaving son?" Your dad asked Bernardo.
"Tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" You exclaimed, spitting a few food crumbs onto the table. "But that so soon."
"Well we have to get back to training."
"We?" Anita chuckled.
"Okay, Ruben has to get back to training. I have to get back to...you know." He mumbled.
You shot a glance towards Ruben. He kept his eyes on his plate. A part of you thought there would be more time, more time to make things right between you.
"Y/N, wait!"
It was after dinner. You were on your way back to the pool house when Ruben came running.
"Are you okay?"
"No, I'm not okay." You frowned. "Why didn't you tell me that you were leaving?"
"I wanted to tell you, but then our fight happned and..."
You shook your head. It was pathetic, you were already crying. "Will I see you again?"
Ruben stepped up to you. "Of course. You can visit me whenever. My home is your home Y/N." His hands rubbed your arms, shielding you from the nights cold. So much a simply touch could do. You were ready to throw yourself back into his arms. There was only one question.
"Where is Bernardo staying during his suspension from the team?"
"Y/N." Ruben sighed. This practically answered your question. "You know he's staying with me as long as he needs to."
You nodded. "Then I guess there's no room for me."
"Y/N."
You wiggled out of his grip and continued towards the pool house.
"Maybe you should stay with Thomas!" Ruben shouted. "Since the two of you seem so close to each other again."
"What did you say?"
You paused and turned back around.
Ruben stood by what he said, his arms crossed before him.
You approached him with angry steps. "You don't know the first thing about..."
"Enlighten me then."
You snorted.
"Bernardo told me that he overheard the two of you talking. What does Thomas want huh? Does he want you back, is that it?"
You shook your head, a smirk on your face. "I can't believe you're dumb enough to trust anything Bernardo says."
"Oh, so I'm the dumb one? At least I don't go kite surfing when a splash of water makes me seasick."
You slapped him. It was an unexpected reaction from you but your hand left your side and swiped across his face. Ruben took it well though. He might have seen it coming. The silence that followed was one of the most painful moments you've ever experienced.
"Y/N I..."
You shook your head, tears streaming down your face. "Please don't speak."
"Y/N, I'm sorry I..."
"Ruben please." You cried. "Don't ever speak to me again."
You left him standing there whilst you ran back into the house. You ran upstairs not caring who you woke up. You knocked on the bathroom door knowing she'd be in there going through her many nightly routines. The door opened. She looked back at you with a startled expression. Nevertheless, seeing your tears, Anita knew not to ask too many questions. She pulled you into her embrace, letting you cry in her arms. It was one of those rare but universal moments between siblings. When all you needed to do was be there for one another. And right now all you needed was your big sister.

Breaking Point
Summary: No One Knows AU Part 21, Vlad takes Sam and Tucker's suits to upgrade them.
...
“I don’t understand,” Sam says, trying to keep the nerves in her chest out of her voice.  “Why do you want our suits back?”
“They need an upgrade,” Vlad says from his chair, writing something down on the notepad in front of him, which he’s holding close enough to his chest that Sam can’t see it.  “There’s been a recent and extremely troubling development that will require you both to be more prepared.”
Sam glances at Tucker, but just finds him looking right at Vlad.
“You sound irritated,” he says, and Sam can’t read the tone of his voice.
“The upgrades will be difficult to manage, that’s all,” Vlad says.  “That doesn’t mean they aren’t crucial.”
“What happened?” Sam insists.
Vlad pauses in writing things down and looks up at the two of them.  He takes a deep breath.
“Valerie has joined forces with Daniel,” he says.
Sam’s blood runs cold.  “What?  How?  Why would she?  Is she stupid?”
“Well Daniel no doubt manipulated her into it,” Vlad says.  “But if he’s going to have more support from her, your suits need to be upgraded so you can better defend yourselves against both of them.”
“No, no wait,” Sam said, narrowing her eyes and clenching her hands into fists.  “We can still help Valerie.  She can’t know what Danny really is.  He can’t have told her that he’s Danny and Phantom.”
“Unfortunately, my dear, that is exactly what he did,” Vlad says.
Sam shakes her head and grabs for her bracelet, twisting it back and forth.  “He can’t have.”
“He manipulated her… by telling her the truth,” Tucker says slowly.  Sam still can’t read his tone.
“The cruelest manipulation of all, really,” Vlad says, looking back down at his notepad.  Tucker doesn’t say anything.
“I’ll make sure the upgrades don’t take long,” Vlad says, apparently done looking at them.  “Less than a week.”
“A week?” Sam snaps.  “Danny shows up almost every day.  What are we going to do in the meantime?”
“There isn’t any alternative,” Vlad says.  “I’m sorry.  This is needed if you want to be able to face them.  You should keep your heads down for a little.”
Sam grips her bracelet tightly.  It sounds like the worst possible option she can think of.  But Vlad knows what he’s doing.  She trusts him.
So, Sam takes a deep breath and pulls her bracelet off, then hands it over to him.  Vlad takes it, and Sam’s hand goes back to her wrist.  It feels too naked now.
She looks over at Tucker a second later, and finds him looking right back at her.  She still can’t tell what he’s thinking, which is weird.  Tucker’s her best friend, she’s supposed to be good at that.
Finally, Tucker takes off his bracelet and hands it to Vlad too, without saying a word.
“Excellent, thank you,” Vlad says, setting both of the bracelets casually down on the arm of the chair.  “I’ll get started on them right away, and get back to you as fast as I can.”
“Okay,” Sam says, and the slight shake in her voice is not obvious, it is not.  She’s fine.
“I’ll contact you when I have them ready,” Vlad says with a wave of dismissal.
“Right,” Sam says.  She bites her lip hard.
“Hey,” Tucker says quietly.  “Come on, we should get back to school.  Lunch is almost over.”
“Yeah I know, Tucker,” Sam snaps.  Like she needs him to tell her when lunch is.  She turns and storms for the exit, and hears Tucker following her after a couple steps.
Okay.  This could be a lot worse.  Valerie still doesn’t know who they are.  Danny of course still doesn’t know who they are, because Vlad wouldn’t have taken away their weapons if he did, no matter how many upgrades they needed.
“Hey,” Tucker says, as soon as they’re out of the house and on the way back to school— walking, which they really don’t have time for.  “It’s gonna be okay.”
“Obviously, Tucker, I know that,” Sam snaps.  “If you don’t have anything helpful to say, just shut up.”
She ignores the pinch of guilt in her chest after she says that.  Honestly, Tucker should know better though.  She’s fine.  She doesn’t need him reassuring her, he can’t even blast a stuffed animal into the wall without feeling terrible about it.
Just as she suspected, they’re late getting back to school.  She doesn’t have time to worry about getting in trouble about that, though, because the bell rings as soon as they step in the doors, which is something at least.  They’ll blend in during a passing period.
Before she can make it all the way to her locker, though, they pass Danny digging through his, and Sam’s muscles tense up.  What’s going to happen if he turns and spots her, she doesn’t have her weapons now, he could turn into Phantom right here in the hallway and leap for her, slam her head into the lockers over and over until it starts bleeding or fly her up far above the school and drop her or fly Tucker up far above the school and drop him—
Danny turns, and his eyes widen slightly when he notices them.
“Hey,” he says as they walk closer.  “Do you guys have a minute?  I need to talk to you about something.”
“No,” Sam snaps immediately, and grabs Tucker by the arm, pulling him after her and off towards their next class.
“What- Sam!” Tucker calls, but he doesn’t fight as he gets dragged along.  Sam doesn’t loosen her grip on his arm.  The further she can get them away from Danny, the safer they are.
Though without their weapons, they’re still really not safe at all.
Danny tries to talk to them three more times throughout the day.  Sam doesn’t know what the hell has gotten into him all of a sudden.  Is he here to gloat about how he’s finally convinced Valerie that he’s not dangerous, just in time to lure her in and kill her by blasting her in the heart or shooting her head off?
Sam manages to keep Tucker right by her side during school, but when they separate at the end of the day to go home, Sam has to watch him walk off until she can’t see him anymore.
What if he doesn’t come back to school tomorrow?  What if Danny comes for him in the middle of the night?  And Sam can’t do anything about it because she doesn’t have her weapons?
Sam spends the walk home trying to come up with some kind of game plan, some scrap of an idea, something she can do if the worst happens.
She comes up with nothing.  She doesn’t have any weapons.  Fenton weapons aren’t safe, her weapons are gone for the foreseeable future, she’s completely defenseless.  Why didn’t Vlad set up training grounds they could use without their suits?
“Samantha?”
Sam whirls around, teeth already bared in a growl, and her mother takes a step back, holding up her hands.
Sam hadn’t realized she’d made it inside her house.
“Samantha, sweetheart, what happened to your wrist?”
Sam looks down at her wrist and finds it bleeding steadily.  She glances over at her other hand and sees blood under her nails.
“Oh come here, sweetheart,” Mom says.  She takes Sam gently by the arm and leads her upstairs, and Sam’s too busy staring at her nails to fight her.
They end up in the bathroom, and her mother cleans and washes the cut on her wrist, before wrapping it tightly with gauze.  Sam hides her other hand behind her back.  She can do that part herself.
“What on earth happened to it, Samantha?”
“I don’t know,” Sam lies.  “And don’t call me that.”
Her mom checks her wrist over again and sighs.  “Alright, just be careful, Sam,” she says.  “That was a lot of blood for you to not know what happened.”
“Yeah, whatever,” Sam grumbles.  “Can I go do homework now?”
“Sam, wait,” her mom says, and Sam stops at the bathroom door with a groan.
“Hey, don’t take that tone with me young lady.  I’m just worried about you.  You haven’t been yourself lately.”
“And how would you know what myself is like?” Sam snaps, with a glare over her shoulder.  “You don’t even like me.”
Her mother’s eyes widen.  “Samatha,” she says, sounding shocked.  “That isn’t true.  I know we don’t see eye to eye, but you’re my daughter, I love you.  And I can tell when you’re not being your normal abnormal self.”
“Oh whatever,” Sam grumbles, leaving the bathroom and heading for her bedroom.  “I’m fine.  Leave me alone.”
She can hear her mother calling after her, but she ignores it, opting to slam the door to her room shut and lock it.
What does she know anyway?  She can’t possibly understand what Sam’s going through.  Has her best friend ever died and turned into a dangerous ghost who wants to kill her?  Has she ever had to deal with her other best friend not taking the threat seriously to the point she constantly has to watch out for him and keep him out of danger?  Has she ever had to deal with Danny being dead and not even being allowed to take time to miss him, because that could mean she ends up dead too?  Has she ever had to go without her only lifeline for what very well could be an entire week, a week where she has to be around the person who wants to murder her constantly, with no protection but the fact that he doesn’t know she knows he wants to do that?  Has she ever failed to protect someone else, someone who’s now in more danger and who Sam can’t do anything to help, because Valerie won’t listen to her?  Has she ever not been able to stop thinking about everything that could go wrong and the nothing she could do about it, the lives that could be lost if Sam doesn’t find a way to fight a ghost with no weapons?
No.  Her mother doesn’t have the first clue what her life is like.  And if Sam isn’t like how she used to be, well, good.
Who she used to be won’t get the job done.
Sam wakes up the next morning to find her wrist bandages soaked through and her sheets stained with blood from scratching them.  She calls one of their on-call laundry maids and tells them her period started early, and they promise her they’ll take care of it.
Sam opts not to sleep that night.
Or the night after that.
Danny doesn’t stop trying to talk to them, but Sam always manages to find a reason they can’t.  Late for class, they need to talk about a project, Tucker forgot his lunch so Sam’s going through hers to find anything acceptable for him.  It works well enough to get Danny to drop it for the time, but never for good, which makes Sam start to dread what could possibly be this important.
What if he does know something?  What if he’s started to put the pieces together and he’s trying to figure out how much they know?  How much would be enough to be safe?  Would it be safe to just keep pretending they don’t know anything, or would that be confirmation that they’re lying at this point and he would realize and attack them anyway?
Sam doesn’t know, so she sticks with her strategy of aggressive avoidance, even though it seems to be really irritating Danny, which also isn’t good for the keeping out of danger plan.
But it’ll be fine.  They just need to last until they get their weapons back, and then they’ll be at least a little bit safer.  It’ll be fine.
By the end of the week, however, Sam wonders if it’s pretty clear to everyone that she’s not fine.  Her parents both keep trying to ask her what’s going on, and Tucker’s walking on even more eggshells around her than usual, and Danny’s giving her looks like he’s pretending to be worried about her.  She doesn’t have any idea how she’s going to deal with any of it.  It’s usually easy enough to get her parents off her back, but they’re being remarkably insistent this time.  And she can tell Tucker’s trying to psyche himself up to actually talk to her about it.  And Danny— who knows what Danny will do.  She really needs to come up with some kind of alternative game plan.
And then she gets a message from Vlad, slipped under her door somehow in the middle of the night, that the suits are done.  And suddenly she doesn’t need to come up with a plan anymore.
She gets over to the training grounds as early as physically possible, and finds Vlad ready with their two bracelets.
“I’ll take Tucker’s to him,” Sam says, while snatching hers and putting it on.  As soon as it’s on her wrist, she feels such a sense of relief well up in her chest that it’s a little ridiculous.
“Thank you my dear,” Vlad says, sounding a little absent-minded.  He starts back over towards the chairs and picks up the notepad he had last time they talked.
“What upgrades do they have now?” Sam asks, following him.
“Don’t worry about it Samantha, I’m sure they’ll come in handy,” Vlad says.
Sam winces.  “Could you actually not call me that?”
Vlad looks up at her, seeming irritated.  “What?”
Sam looks at him for another second.  “Nothing,” she decides.  “Thanks for the upgrades.”
“Any time, my dear,” Vlad says, turning back to his notepad as a clear signal to leave, one Sam takes.
She finds Tucker waiting for her when she gets to school, and hands him his bracelet without a word.  Tucker looks at it for a long moment without putting it on.
“What did he do to it?” he asks, looking up at Sam.
“He upgraded it?” Sam says, raising an eyebrow.  “Like he said he would?”
“No, I mean, like what specifically,” Tucker says, still not putting the bracelet on.
“Does it matter?  We’ll find out when we use them.”
Tucker looks at the bracelet again, and then, to Sam’s astonishment, slips it into his pocket.
“Tucker,” she starts.
“Hey, Sam, Tucker,” comes Danny’s voice, and Sam’s throat suddenly feels dry.  She puts herself slightly in front of Tucker as she turns to face Danny.
“What?” she says.
“I really need to talk to you guys,” Danny says for about the millionth time this week.
“Sorry,” Sam says, scrambling for an excuse.  “We need to—”
“No,” Danny cuts her off, and Sam’s hand goes to her bracelet.  Thank god she has it back.
“I’m sorry?” she snaps at Danny.
“Sam, I’ve been trying to talk to you guys all week,” Danny snaps right back.  “Let’s go, I know an empty classroom.”
“No,” Sam says, drawing herself up taller to hide her shaking.  “If we’re talking, we’re doing it right here.”
“It’s not a conversation I want to have in the hallway,” Danny says.
“Too bad.”
Danny narrows his eyes at her, and Sam’s breath catches in her throat.  She narrows her eyes further.  “Well?”
“Sam,” Danny says.  “We really need—”
The bell cuts him off, and Sam uses it as an excuse to grab Tucker’s arm and pull them both away again.  “Sorry, it’ll have to be another time.”
“Today,” Danny snaps after her, and Sam’s grip tightens.  “I’m finding you at lunch.”
Sam doesn’t respond, just pulls Tucker behind her for another second, until finally Tucker yanks his grip from hers.
“Sam,” he snaps.  “You need to stop.”
Sam turns to face him.  “What are you talking about?”
Tucker glares at her for a second, then grabs her arm and pulls her into a nearby classroom, an empty one.
“We can’t just ignore Danny every single time he tries to talk to us!”
“Why not?” Sam says, crossing her arms.  “It’s a matter of safety, Tucker.”
“Oh please,” Tucker says, crossing his arms right back.
“What do you mean ‘oh please?’  Tucker, are you still not taking this seriously?”
“Well, you seemed convinced Danny would hurt Valerie, and they just ended up teaming up.”
“To do something worse!  Honestly, Tucker—”
“How do you know?  Sam, you,” Tucker takes a deep breath and folds his hands together.  “You seriously need to stop.  Take a deep breath.  I’m worried about you.”
“Oh please, I’m fine,” Sam says.
“Sam.”
“What?”
“Last week you threw a giant Phantom protest, you look like you haven’t slept in days, and you haven’t had your bracelet for a week.  Don’t think I haven’t noticed the bandages.”
Sam immediately covers her wrist.
“Look, it’s—” Tucker reaches his hand out and puts it over Sam’s.  Sam shakes it away.
“It’s going to be okay,” Tucker says anyway.  “Why don’t you take the day off and go home?  I’ll go talk to Danny and let you know what he says.”
“Alone?” Sam asks, staring at him.  “Are you crazy?  You can’t even bring yourself to shoot him!  You’re still not wearing your bracelet!”
Tucker flinches and looks down at his bare wrist.  “Vlad wouldn’t tell you what he did to them,” he mutters.
“He did tell you!  He upgraded them!  And I’m not going anywhere if you refuse to protect yourself!  I’m fine.”
“Sam,” Tucker insists, forcing his gaze back up to her.  “You’re not.”
“See you in class, Tucker,” Sam says, and she marches over towards the door.
As lunch gets closer, Sam keeps trying to come up with a plan.  Danny wants to talk to them alone.  They have their weapons now, so they’re not helpless, and they have something of an element of surprise, but Danny is clearly going to pick a location, meaning he’ll have the home field advantage.  She needs to find some way to get ahead of it, not that there’s a lot of options in that department.
She can’t overpower Danny without her weapons.  The fights they’ve had have made it clear that he’s far more experienced than her.  So is Valerie, and now Danny’s manipulated her to join him.  The only possible advantage she has is finding some way to take back the element of surprise.
So, just before lunch, Sam sneaks out behind the school, puts her suit on, and flies back out in front of it.
“HEY!” she screams to all the kids eating down on the lawn.  Her voice sounds strange.  She’s never screamed this loud through the suit modulator before.  They all turn to stare at her, and Sam spots Tucker and Danny sitting at their usual outside table.  Tucker’s gaping at her.  Sam ignores him.
“I’M HERE FOR PHANTOM IF HE’S MAN ENOUGH TO FIGHT ME!” Sam screams.
She looks right at Danny, since her eyes are covered by the suit.  He’s staring at her, part pretending to be baffled and part pretending to be concerned.
Tucker stands up next to him and runs off.
Whatever.  At least the coward is safe.
Before too long, Danny slips away too, as everyone else keeps staring.  But before Danny shows up as Phantom, Tucker does, wearing his suit.
“Hey, Sam,” he says as he approaches, quietly enough that no one will hear her name.  “Uh, what in the world are you doing?”
“Bringing the fight to him,” Sam snaps.  “Just get behind me.”
“Okay, or we could not?  Maybe— maybe you should just come sit back down?”
“Shut up,” Sam growls, forgoing Tucker’s name.  She’s not sure she’ll be quiet enough to hide it.
“Sam,” Tucker says quietly, flying closer to her.  “Please.  Please, come sit down.  You— you’re shaking.”
Sam clenches her hands into fists at her side.  “I’m fine.”
Tucker reaches out for her, and Sam smacks his hand away.  Before he can say anything else, however, Sam sees someone flying up behind him.
“Uh, hi there,” Phantom says, holding his hands up in front of him in what’s probably supposed to look like a gesture of peace but in reality makes it much more easy for him to blast the both of them in the chest.  “How are we doing?  You okay, Purple Suit?”
“Don’t you dare ask me that,” Sam snaps, raising her blaster at him.  But her arm is shaking far too much for her aim to be straight, and instead the blast goes nearly a foot above Danny’s head.
“Hey, I don’t know what’s going on right now,” Danny says, keeping his hands up as a mockery of his attempts to be human.  “But you don’t look like you’re doing too hot.  Do you need to talk about something?  I promise, I’m not gonna shoot you.  We don’t have to fight.”
“That’s rich,” Sam snaps, raising her gun again and trying to force her arm to stop shaking.  Before she can get enough of a chance to try, however, Tucker flies in between her and Danny.
“Please go,” he says to Danny.  “I’m sorry, it’s not your fault, but you’re not helping.”
“Get. Out. Of. The. Way,” Sam snaps at Tucker.
“Let’s go home,” Tucker says desperately, looking over his shoulder at her.  “Please, let’s go.”
Sam grits her teeth, steadies her arm, and blasts Tucker in the back.  Not on full power, obviously, just enough to get him out of the way.
He still cries out, however, and Sam’s heart cracks in her chest, and Danny reaches out and catches Tucker.
“Okay,” he says, glaring back up at Sam.  “You are officially my least favorite huntress.  What the hell was that?”
“Get your hands off of him,” Sam snaps, raising her gun and stabilizing it with her other hand so she can hit Danny’s arm and not Tucker again.
Danny, however, easily dodges it, and then lets go of Tucker.  “Are you okay?” he asks him.  Tucker nods shakily, then turns back to Sam.
“Sorry,” Sam snaps at him, though she doesn’t think it’s clear in her voice how much she means it.  “Next time stay out of my way.”
“Okay, okay,” Tucker says, holding up his hands.  “I will, I promise.  Just please, let’s go.”
“Seriously dude?” Danny says, staring at him.  “Don’t let her treat you like that.”
“You shut your mouth!” Sam snaps, raising her gun at Phantom again.
“It’s fine, it’s fine, just stop,” Tucker says, flying in between them both again and putting his hands out on either side of him.
Sam grits her teeth, but she can’t bring herself to shoot him again.  “What happened to staying out of my way?” she snaps instead.
“Please,” Tucker begs, turning to face her.  “You need to stop.  You need to sleep.”
“I’m fine!”
“You’re not!”
“Well, isn’t this a pretty picture?  My deepest apologies for being late.”
A growl builds up in Sam’s throat as she turns and faces Phantom’s lackey.
Phantom flies instantly in between Sam and Plasmius, looking like it’s almost on instinct.  “Seriously, Plasmius, not a good time,” he says.  “Can we schedule this for later?”
“Oh, I’m so sorry, but no,” Plasmius says.  “I just don’t have another time that works for me.”
Sam raises her gun and blasts Danny in the back while he’s distracted.  Danny yelps and turns to face her.  “Seriously?  I’m trying to help you.”
“Likely story,” Sam snaps.
“Oh don’t worry, Daniel, I’m trying to help you too,” Plasmius says, and before anyone can do anything, he flies up slightly higher and fires a shot right at Sam.
Sam’s eyes widen, only to see a second later Phantom reappear right in front of her and take the shot to his face.
It was apparently a nasty one, because when the light from the blast fades, Sam sees him falling to the ground unconscious.
That’s… what?  Why would he do that?  He was just yelling about how little he likes her.  And that’s his lackey.
She sees something else streaking towards the ground, and doesn’t even have time to yell at Tucker for going after Danny like an idiot before she hears the sound of another blast going off, and she looks up just in time to see Plasmius’ shot coming right at her.

I realized earlier this week that Unfriendly and I have only ever moved out of temporary spaces. Packing up to move out of an apartment or dorm for me has always felt rushed. Having to make sure all of your crap is either boxed up or out of the way so that appealing photographs can be taken so someone else can buy it feels weird. It's a different kind of rushing. Like rushing in stages.
I don't know. It's odd. I feel odd. My childhood house was not really a home. I only ever wanted to get out of that place and have no desire to go back to the area. I went no contact with my dad in college, which was 25 ish years ago. We did drive by it one day when he was still alive and we were visiting FL and it was more upsetting than anything else.
I did see its current state online recently and the new owners really improved it. It was bittersweet to see that. My parents didn't put in that effort.
This has been our house since December of 2007. We've lived here almost 17 years. That's crazy. We moved almost every year between 1999 and 2006. It's been our home for almost 70% of the time Unfriendly and I have been living together.
I'm likely not going to miss a lot about GA in general. The traffic has gotten insane around us. The majority of the folks who live in this county and the one above us are conservative. This state felt like home for a while but that has changed.
There is a lot about this house I'm not crazy about that we never got around to upgrading or modifying. My list of things I won't miss is probably long. But, I will miss the way the sunlight hits the leaves in the backyard / woods near sunset. I will miss my garden tub which also has a window view to more trees. I will 100% miss the kitchen we designed.
I'm excited about leaving but I'm also really sad today. It's a big change and I have all of the emotions. A couple of nights ago I couldn't sleep because I was so excited to get out and live somewhere new.
But yeah. It's real. Sign went up yesterday and the photographer just left

hi. I can't sleep so here's a cute lil super vague picture of my mom, and me, from when I was born 💖
Tumblr media
this was taken september 28th, the year i was born, when I was finally able to come home from the hospital, because I was born a whole two months premature. I'm so tiny!! and my mom's smile is so big!!!!!
when I look at pictures of her I can really see. how badly she'd been doing the past few months. I knew she wasn't doing well, but when you see somebody every day, sometimes you still don't always see-see it, you know? anyway this is how I want to remember her. not sick. but cute and precious and with her big smile, and with me. (even if this week I still told her she looked cute. cause she's my mom, of course she's always cute.)
she did pass away today. everybody who's been to the house has been so, so kind to me. the hospice nurse, even, was so surprised that everything happened so quickly. she thought there would be just a little more time. she gave me like three hugs, and when I told her, "I know this is part of your job, but you give great hugs." she dropped her bags and went "OH, you haven't SEEN the kind of hugs I can give." and hugged me AGAIN and said "you think I give out hugs to just anyone?? come on." which, damn. that was a squeeze. and the funeral arrangement guy who was here yesterday came back today, of course, and even he was in tears about my mom. best friend came over and we talked for hours, about my mom, about the usual everything we talk about. I got into contact with one of my high school friends just the other day, and we talked about how much my mom meant to him when we were teenagers. and I'm really happy there are people who got to meet my mom and understand how special she was and got to feel loved by her.
there's lots of people who are gonna help me with the house, and with me, and where I go now. so im trying not to be, uh, too horrified about that. our neighbors, my aunt, we actually JUST ran into someone who used to help my brother when he worked, who's now on a committee for senior and special needs housing -- she's engaged to the guy fixing my grandmother's septic tank??? what are the odds????? so. I keep telling myself that's gonna be okay. I made my brother pasta for dinner, and we ate it with our aunt, and we watched mythbusters. things are gonna be weird and not always. easy. but I'm gonna be okay. because my mom told me she knew I could do anything, so. I can be okay. And I don't always have to be, either. But I can be okay.
ive kept it together like. really well today. bc there's lots of things I have to help my aunt take care of. and while I had already been thinking a lot about like. my mom not being here. and rearranging my brain around that idea. i know it's still gotta really sink in. that she's not here. im gonna wake up tomorrow and she wont be here, waiting for me. she's not gonna be able to hold my hand when I'm upset or hug me or call me food nicknames or hang out with me. but we were really, really happy, the day after she came home from the hospital, when we talked about how much fun we've had doing things together. always together. and how we wouldn't change anything, and how we'd do it all over again. so i felt like we'd said everything we needed to to each other. I know she was so proud of me, always. and that she thought my silly bill crafts were the coolest things ever. and that I could never make her upset. and she could never make me upset either. she was so silly and so loving and so fun, and wanted more than anything to be a mom, and to be loving and caring, and she was so good at it. and I'm so happy she was my mom.

Where We Kept Our Magic (IV)
How We Parted
Hello lovelies! Here is a new part for my Muggle!Reader AU!! I hope you like this new scene, tell me what you think!
****
Pairing: Sirius Black x Muggle!Reader
Warnings: it’s a little sad :(
Summary: You and Sirius meet when you’re still young, and yet you fall head over heels for each other. But everything gets complicated when you learn that Sirius is a Wizard! Now, your whole world has to be reimagined. -This series is made of many independent snippets taken from Sirius and Muggle!Reader’s lovestory –
Word Count : 1792
Tumblr media
The weather isn’t so warm anymore. September is upon you and with it, a cool breeze has settled over London. The trees remain green and lush for now, but you know they will soon colour themselves in warmer tones, before letting their leaves fall.
Sirius is lying in the grass, by the Serpentine. His head on your laps, he lets you run your fingers through his hair, heaves a content sigh at the soothing feeling. It’s a quiet afternoon, or perhaps it’s only getting late, and families are home already. But Sirius has no intention to move. After all, you’re here, with your fingers in his hair, why would he want to leave?
Besides, tomorrow morning, he’ll go King’s Cross station, run through a wall and board the Hogwarts Express. And then he’ll be off, just like that. Just like that…
He doesn’t see how this can work. How can he even write to you? He can’t use an owl… Euphemia and Fleamont have offered to go the post office, but Sirius is reluctant. He doesn’t want to bother them…
Still, he doesn’t want this to end. He likes you. An awful lot. Actually, he’s starting to truly fall for you, all the way down towards love, but he can’t bring himself to say it out loud or to even think of the word. It’s too hard for him. After living with his family, love is too close to hatred for him to look at you and think of that word. After all, there isn’t an ounce of hatred in his heart targeted towards you.
Anyway, this is not the point. The point is that he’s about to leave for Scotland, and you won’t. The point is that he has no clue how to contact your properly. He’s given you a fake address that will lead to the Potters’ house so you can write to him, but again, he doesn’t want to bother them. He bothers them enough already…
“What’s going in this busy head of yours, honey?”
Honey. You’ve started calling him that about three weeks ago, and he adores it. It sounds so sweet, so much like you in your yellow sundress. So unlike him, in his dark t-shirt and heavy boots. So unlike him, with his name tainted with night…
Sirius merely hums in response, closing his eyes again, the leaves of the oak tree you’re leaning against disappearing beyond his eyelids. You don’t let him get away with it so easily though, he’s almost endeared by it. He would have been, any other day, if the wait of separation wasn’t so heavy on his heart today.
“Sirius? You’re alright?”
He shrugs. He knows he’ll give up in a few seconds, your fingers are too gentle as they get lost in his hair, your warmth too soothing.
He looks up at you again. He’s put his leather jacket on your shoulders about half an hour ago, before he lied down, because he noticed you were shivering. You look adorable. You look beautiful. He never wants this to end. He wants to keep his jacket on your shoulders forever…
“Just… a little sad that I’m leaving,” he admits. “Which is weird, cause I’ve always been eager to go to Hogwarts before.”
You nod, a small smile on your lips.
“Is it because of me?”
“Who else could it be? Certainly not because of Jackie, she’s insufferable.”
“You like her. And she likes you too.”
He can’t refrain a smile at that. He’s surprised when one of your hands leaves his hair to reach for his fingers instead.
“I don’t want us to break up,” you admitted, earnest and suddenly vulnerable, perhaps more so than what you intended.
“Me neither.”
“I’ll wait for you. I’ll wait for you to come back. It’s only a few months before Christmas. Besides, I’ll write to you, daily if you miss me too much.”
Your tone is teasing, but Sirius winces, and your heart shudders at the sight, a crack runs through the porcelain of it, ready to break altogether.
“You don’t want me to write to you?”
You see Sirius hesitate, and you hate it. And he knows you hate it. It hurts him too.
“I want you to write to me,” he finally answers, after a rather long pause, choosing his words carefully. “But you can’t write directly to my school, it won’t work. And I don’t want to bother the Potters too much…”
Slowly, you nod.
“I see. I understand. Perhaps… not too often?”
Slowly, he nods. He looks worried now, sad even. And he is.
You run your thumb across his knuckles, the tip of your fingers grazing his silver rings, the metal cold against his warm skin.
“They’ve already taken me in after I ran away last summer… I don’t want to be a burden.”
Slowly, you nod. You don’t ask anything, even if Sirius guesses that questions are burning on the tip of your tongue. But you don’t ask. About his family, about why he ran away… you never do. And he’s grateful for it, but sometimes he wonders why you don’t.
Are you afraid? Or simply kind?
He sits up without warning, and his back is almost to you now. He heaves a sigh, putting even more distance between the two of you, and you hate it.
Still, you don’t ask.
His eyes drift towards the river, towards the dirty, muddy water filled with lost feathers. A group of swans swims away, without taking a single look back.
“Sirius?”
“Hmm?”
“You’re okay?”
“Of course.”
A pregnant pause. An expectation. You take him aback with your statement.
“I don’t want you to leave. I’ll miss you.”
The ghost of a smile grazes his lips, he reaches for your hand, but doesn’t turn to you for now.
“I’ll miss you too.”
His hold is a little too tight, you know he’s holding back. You’ve grown used to it. Gently, you splay a hand across his spine, the fabric of his t-shirt soft under your palm despite the dust and the dry grass that have clung to the material here and there.
“Please, don’t hold back,” you ask so gently, Sirius’s eyes fill with tears. “It’s our last afternoon together before Christmas. Don’t hold back. What’s bothering you?”
He clears his throat, the tears gone, replaced by a tightly set jaw.
“You never ask.”
“What do you mean?”
“You never ask about my family.”
You shrug.
“I know that it’s difficult for you to talk about it. I reckon… that you’ll tell me more about it when you’re ready. I don’t want to push you, if you’re not ready.”
At long last, he turns to look at you again, but he doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t know what to say, anyway…
He hesitates before speaking again. Because it sounds silly. He reckons you won’t understand. And it would hurt a lot more than he can admit. But there’s a weight on his heart, and he wants to lift it, even if it can’t last for long.
“I’m going to see my brother at Hogwarts.”
“Regulus?”
He nods.
“I don’t know how I feel about it,” he confesses. “I miss him. But… I also hate him.”
“Do you hate him? Are you simply angry?”
He considers the question. It’s a little too accurate, and he smiles.
“Yeah… I think I’m angry. I’m angry he chose to stay. I’m angry I can’t protect him anymore. I’m angry he doesn’t have the guts to break free. I’m angry he’s uncertain about my parents beliefs.”
“But you still miss him.”
“Yeah… yeah, I miss him.”
He sets his gaze on the river again, lets go of your hand to wrap his arms around his knees.
“The first time I took the train, my mother was so proud. And I both loved it and hated it. And I think… I’m angry because it didn’t really change. I don’t believe in any of the conservative bullshit my parents are so adamant to defend, and I’ll never forgive them for how much they hurt me and my brother. And yet I… every time I get on that train I see my mother’s face beaming at me and looking at me as if I was the most extraordinary thing in the world, and I long for this feeling again.”
He heaves a sigh.
“I want you to write to me. But the Potters… they didn’t have to take me in, and they did. I don’t want them to regret doing that.”
“I’ll write to you once a month. Would that be alright? That’s not too often.”
Slowly, Sirius nods.
“Okay, I’ll wait for your letter, and I’ll reply.”
“Okay.”
He’s surprised when you wrap your arms around him from behind, when you rest your cheek against his shoulder blade. He loves it though. He feels soothed all over again, his busy mind quietened again. The face of Walburga disappears, and the muddy water is back instead, with its white swans almost disappearing now, in the distance.
“Why do I miss them, when I hate them?”
You tighten your hold on him before you answer.
“They raised you. They loved you, even if it hurt. They taught you how it is to be loved first. You have to rewrite that definition, with better people, better examples. But they’re still your family, even if they hurt you. Your mother still looked at you with pride that day, even if she hurt you only a few hours before. It’s not black and white, like everything else in life. I reckon… it was so familiar a feeling, such a mingling of pain and love, you can’t really tell them apart anymore. Am I wrong?”
Sirius shook his head, stunned.
“I don’t dare asking you questions about your family, because I know it hurts,” you go on, your tone infinitely kind. “But I still care. Do you understand? I care about you, about who you are… I just… don’t want to hurt you. But you can tell me about it whenever you feel ready, okay? I’m… it’s not disinterest, it’s just… caution.”
Slowly, he nods.
“Thank you.”
He holds your hands in his, twisting his neck to press his temple against your hair, closing his eyes.
And his gratefulness tastes like love, but he’s not ready to admit it. You’re right, he needs to redefine the word, before speaking it again, and aim it at you.
When he kisses you, a few minutes later, it tastes like goodbye, but it’s not as sad as you expected it to be. And when he tells you he’ll wait for you, that he’ll wait for Christmas, that you can count on him, it’s easy to believe him…

BESTIE can you tell me more about your lovely lady Jo I like her a lot....
IM SOOOOOO FUCKING GLAD YOU ASKED so she’s like technically an SCP OC tho we’re not suuuper connected to that universe it’s more of a vessel to tell our story but she’s this middle aged lesbian who is PAST her prime. She never had a prime. This is a cringe woman. She’s like on the millennial gen x cusp and it’s like painfully obvious. She is not a cool woman. She hasn’t even really talked to a girl other than her sister since high school. She’s got no friends. She works a minimum wage job and then goes home to her little house she took from her elderly mom after her mom got moved to 24/7 care (Jo doesn’t visit her btw)
And then one day she wakes up with a ton of weird symptoms. They persist for weeks. She goes to a doctor. They have her take a pregnancy test even though she tries to explain to them she can’t Possibly be pregnant. It comes back positive. She takes several more. She is super pregnant. She panics. She assumes the worst. She cannot fathom how this could have happened. More tests are done. She gets an ultrasound done. There’s no baby. Every pregnancy test comes back positive. She experiences every symptom of pregnancy. Her body is reacting as if there is a baby. But there’s just no baby. Her womb is empty.
For a really long time she tries to find an answer. Doctors don’t take her seriously. They assume she has an extreme case of Pseudocyesis. They blame it on her parental problems. She sees therapists. Nothing helps, and she continues to appear more and more pregnant until her body stops at around the 7th month mark.
Eventually she gives up and for Four Years she exists in a body that is 7 months pregnant until eventually her case gets brought to a doctor who has ties to the SCP foundation and they immediately clock her as something anomalous. The foundation gets involved.
The SCP foundation sends in Agent Ainsley ( @ericka-the-worm ‘s character, If you were wondering) to pick her up. He’s a high level agent in the foundation. He’s well trusted to do an easy job like this. Except Ainsely has just come back from forced leave after his spouse, another agent at the foundation, was killed by an SCP. He’s freshly traumatized and his grief has made him angry. The sound of a lamp crashing on the ground when he breaks into her home sends him into a full on PTSD induced panic attack which he believes was not just a sign that he wasn’t ready to come back to work, but instead a mental attack from Jo, who he believes is a far more dangerous SCP than she’s letting on and able to manipulate his mind.
The foundation believes Ainsley and puts Jo in maximum containment. She’s left unattended for days. The isolation drives her crazy. She has been abducted from her home with no explanation and now sits in a silent white room every second of the day. She tries her best to stay sane but it’s near impossible. She deals with constant hallucinations and delusions. That’s when a scientist is assigned to her case. Doctor Zephyr Salem ( @kennydennys )
Dr Salem is driven by only one thing: knowledge. They learn very quickly that Ainsley’s report of Jo wasn’t accurate. And they are very easily attached to Jo for how interesting she is, both as an SCP, and as a human woman who has been driven out of her mind.
Jo IMMEDIATELY attaches to Salem as the only person who she’s in contact with. Finally being able to talk to another person and have a connection to the outside world, she relies on them, and believes them completely when they say they want to help her with her condition and eventually free her from containment.
Jo feels that she’s already been saved by Salem, because she finally has someone to talk to after being in isolation for so long. But the SCP foundation is Salem’s place of work, and Salem has to clock out eventually. They can’t stay with her all the time, and she still spends most of her time completely alone. She continues to get worse. Salem tells Jo that things won’t be like this forever, and she’ll get to leave some day. But in reality Salem has no real intention of ever letting their most interesting case yet leave them.

My Mystery Stories #1
Tumblr media
Chapter 4: The Guilt Party (Part 3): The ΩKB (Omega Kappa Beta)
After hearing the statements of everyone else, after Demetrius - who the red-haired detective noticed had more outbursts than facts of the incident - Luke, who dissected all the statements carefully, already had almost the entire puzzle of the party formed. He just couldn't fit any other suspect questioned as the supposed hooded man, there were still some loose ends that were difficult to tie up, but the testimony of the fraternity boys who threw the party would perhaps help more - he thought. It was during the break between classes that little by little, the fraternity boys came forward to testify… most of them seemed not to have seen much, but some gave important and crucial information and to his joy, Dominic Ward had been identified to testify. The influencer was led to the dean's office apprehensive - Dominic didn't remember much from the night before, just lapses of a fight and a mix of various feelings, and the angry messages from his girlfriend and the comments on his morning photo - which most called him insensitive - only left him more confused.
When he arrived at the rectory, there were some fraternity and sorority mates who had already testified, talking about what could have really happened to August and after seeing Dominic, they fell silent - with the exception of Grace who approached him and said almost inaudibly: 'You disgusting traitor, you're not going to end our friend, we'll end you first!' Without understanding much, he went in. Dominic stared at Luke for a moment and was surprised to see a detective almost his age, swallowing hard he sat down, trying to control his anxiety and began to force his mind to remember everything that had happened at the party and hoped that none of it would harm him.
Tumblr media
“I can't say much about August, just that he was always a full-willed idiot and that everyone should do whatever he wanted whenever he wanted, and the only contact we had at the party was when he asked me convince Don to stay with him more than his own girlfriend, because for some reason, August thought I was his doormat, but I just ignored it and went to talk to Althea. Up until then, everything was going normally, except for Don, who was drinking almost all the hard drinks in the house! He had already been with a bunch of people when Luca arrived. In fact, I was the one who approached Don when he was getting on Luca’s nerves, I went up to him and said: ‘Dude, your girl is already mad at you and you still want to provoke more? You’re already crossing the line’ and then August arrived screaming and making all that fuss that everyone has seen on social media. I tried to get Dominic out of there quietly, but the trouble started to get to him and he froze there. And after all the trouble was over, it seems like he just wanted to drink more or something, he did it to get the courage to ask Luca to bed or… I don't want to accuse anyone, but Don gets a little weird when people tease him like that, I remember the day that weirdo Mayfield bumped into him by accident and didn't apologize, he beat Mayfield up and to this day makes fun of him wherever he goes. I'm studying psychology and I know it's not healthy for Mayfield to live like that, for your information he's the guy who appears several times in Don's stories with funny filters on his face. Anyway, I didn't see much after the August fight, because I was with Althea, and I didn't see anyone wearing a hood, but the ones who like to walk around with a hood are the crazy Blake when he wants to take pictures or gossip or Mayfield himself, according to Don.”
Tumblr media
“Well, I spent the whole party drinking and making out with a bunch of girls. And Don was with me. We also started mixing the famous love serum to get more excited and hook up with as many people as we wanted without getting tired. I can happily say that I made out with more people than Don, but it was also Gus’ fault. He wouldn’t let me go, and if I were Don, I would have dumped him. It’s normal for these KAT boys to be all sentimental and annoying. I can say that I didn't see the fight, but I wanted to, because when the KAT boys or the KKT girls start fighting it's really cool, because they lose all sense and just want to punch or slap each other, but at that time I was in my room with… a KKT girl, only after she realized that the music had stopped, but even so we continued until… until I got sick and ran to vomit, because I think I had already drunk too much or it was the serum, it was Don who came up with the idea of ​​mixing that, he's on the A-List of the creators of the serum, you know? Anyway, when I got back, the girl had already left and left the door open, and then I saw Don walking by with Luca. His room is right next to mine and I heard absolutely everything, but not because I was curious or wanted to, it was just… anyway, after they finished I heard a door opening, and I don't know if it was Don's or another guy's, and I was… embarrassed by what I heard, and I spent the rest of the party in my room throwing up too. Until when I was going to leave, I bumped into Luca and Wosgi making out with each other, I was surprised, because Wosgi has always been a serious and reserved guy, and I've never seen him hooking up with anyone and I was even more surprised by Luca and then I ended up saying: 'Wow, Maglioni, I didn't know you were such a naughty boy, two in one night?' and then he looked at me in a way that made me realize I had said something stupid, and I stood there like an idiot with Wosgi and Maglioni staring at me and possibly thinking I was a real fool! And about the hooded person, the only one who could have left a party like that is Blake, all the ΩKB boys were aware that he could show his face at any moment, and he hated Gus because at the time, he was Luca's confidant and it was Gus who warned Luca that Blake was breaking into his room and stealing underwear, that guy is a pervert that you police should have arrested already! And now he may have killed someone!”
Tumblr media
“I was enjoying our victory like all my frat bros from ΩKB and our colleagues from UBrite, I didn’t intend to hook up with anyone that night so I talked more than I kissed, unlike the other guys who seemed to be in a make-out competition. I saw August when he was drinking at the bar and then my friend, Elvira, asked him to take it easy, he turned her down and then went to yell at Maglioni. I hate trouble, so at that time I went to the bathroom and heard Troyer talking to himself, I knew it was him because he had his back to the urinal and when I passed I saw him, but he didn’t see me. He said: 'You need to stop caring about people who don't deserve it, you should let that idiot die alone even if he asked for your help, because you're a cool friend Troy, and he doesn't deserve to have your friendship', I didn't pay much attention, I just peed and we ended up meeting at the exit, I greeted him, but he just replied: 'I'm not available today and you're not my type!' and I just left. When I came back, the confusion was already over and I continued drinking with Elvira and she told me everything that happened. I felt bad for Maglioni, he's super nice to everyone and I'm also a fan of his, I loved his character in the third season of Plumbob Horror Stories and in the series Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, actually him acting as a wizard is amazing!… Sorry. I was already kind of stoned when Luca came to order a drink and he was so close that I could smell his perfume, and I guess I must have been staring, because he looked at me with those blue eyes and asked me if I was okay and I kind of froze, I'm really a fan of his and it was the first time I saw him in person, because almost no one gets to see him walking around campus, only those who are in his class or his fraternity and even then they say he's really fast! So my friend Elvira started to answer for me, until she nudged me and encouraged me to talk, and then I got the courage and started talking to him and wow, he's so nice and easy to talk to, before I knew it we were together up there… until Daichi showed up, he's a macho and annoying guy, he said some stupid things and then went back to his room, embarrassed. I know he was there the whole time after Regina came down from his room, he must have been afraid that Dominic would find out and end up beating him up like he did to poor Mayfield. And after that, Luca and I went to my room and we didn't hear or see anything different. About Mayfield, we at ΩKB always support each other, but I don't agree with half of what Dominic does, if anyone was capable of killing someone, it's him. By the way, I'm scared myself, because I noticed the angry looks he gave me when we were just talking, imagine if he knew what Luca and I… well, I think he was just really drunk, because he was talking to me normally today and didn't seem to remember much of last night.
Tumblr media
"To be honest, I barely remember anything! Just some feelings that I don't really know where they fit in. But I remember watching the game with everyone, recording my stories… and you can watch them if you want, it's free for everyone… then I went to the party with all the ΩKB bros and when I found out I started drinking, and then my girlfriend… if I can still call her that, started picking on me like she was my mother and so I think I was a bit rude to her and kept drinking, just away from her. Then I remembered something I had and decided to put it in my drink, but Daichi insisted that he wanted to get some and share it with him too… it's not illegal, okay? Celebrities use it, including Luca, because it was his uncle who invented it. And after I drank that serum I started to lose my mind a little, and I only remember certain flashes! Gus, the girl from the debate club… I don't remember her name now… I tried to get with Troy, but he was always difficult… until Luca arrived. I remember more or less what happened from then on, I know I started messing with Luca until my friend, Lars, arrived and said some things that I didn't understand, and then out of nowhere Gus arrived and started saying a lot of things that I don't remember very well… he said that a lot of people recorded it, but no one showed it to me until now… I sincerely hope that none of this affects my image or if not my parents and my grandmother, Judy, will kill me. And I think that was when I started to get angry and… embarrassed… but then Gus left and after drinking and talking more with Luca we went up to my room… I remember I saw Regina coming down the stairs, and when she saw me she frowned, and I asked her why she was up there and she asked me why I was going up with Luca, and I made an excuse and she said something, but we didn't even care because we were crazy about each other… we made out and then I don't really remember what happened next. It's like my mind went blank… but I think we went down to the party and then I went to get another drink and Regina came at me all aggressive and I tried to cheer her up, joking, and she slapped me and when I realized her friends were all kicking me and slapping me and punching me… I just walked away and stayed in my corner. I even thought about calling Luca, but he was talking to Wosgi… he's a tall, strong guy and plays for the team… and I think that was when I started to feel jealous and kind of got up to go and dump Wosgi, because they were going upstairs, but I was already too stoned so I just followed them upstairs, and after I saw them entering the room, I went to mine and collapsed on the bed… after that I didn't hear or see anything, I just dreamed that I was being followed by a sinister guy in a sinister city. And then I woke up in the morning and everyone was blaming me for Gus' death, I liked him, but I didn't do anything at all, I swear! It was definitely that Lionel guy, I saw him penetrating me when the Gus mess started, he's an obsessive fan of Luca, who even filed a restraining order against him. Maybe, as you said you saw, the hooded man was him or that Reece Mayfield, he's also weird, I've seen him leaving Pimenta's Pub in a hurry and heading towards the forest. I really hope none of this has leaked to the media or I'll lose all my sponsorships!

Chapter 36: In Which Twig Is Put Back Together
I told them everything. And I did it crying harder than I thought was mortally possible, Twig scratched onto the pages of a hardcover journal. I blabbed everything and I did it while dribbling all over them both. I think they were more grossed out by the dribbling part than the ‘me indirectly killing an entire bunker of people’ part. I tried the same garbage as always to argue my point that it was my fault, and Celebi looked ready to slap me. I think she honestly might have if Dusknoir didn't grab her midair and walk her away in his hand. It's a good thing he did, because I started crying even harder when Grovyle said something like he's glad I survived the fire and Kip gave me the saddest look ever. He started crying too. I don't think anyone should see two people bawling their eyes out and clinging to each other like we were. It was kind of gross. If Dusknoir and Celebi stayed to watch, I might have died of shame. Grovyle being there was hard enough. 
The Future Trio stayed over for a while longer at Kip's place. There was a lot of talking that happened, and I honestly don't remember a lot of it. I should have written it down as it happened. Basically it was just people talking circles about how they couldn't believe I thought they hated me and how I meant a lot to them. I think I fell asleep mid-sentence at one point because I was so worn out from the crying. I'm never crying again. The one time during the hug was okay— it was fitting. But Celebi gave me an English dictionary before they all packed up and left, and I didn't even realize I was crying until she was grabbing for tissues. That felt pretty ridiculous. It's just a book. But it almost felt like she’d given me a drink of water the night I left my bunker behind. Dunno how to say it in a normal way, but it helped me feel better. 
It's a real one. She found a real Oxford Language Dictionary. It's missing pages and dogeared to heck and back, but Arceus, this thing is like my baby. I keep taking it off the shelf just to hold it in my hands. I'm sure she had to have pulled some strings with Dialga to bring something like this back from the past or future or whatever, but she kept saying it wasn't any problem to get. Judging by the look Grovyle gave her, it was a big problem to get, but I'm glad she went through it to give it to me. There’s even etymology included for a lot of the words in it. Pronunciations and everything. It's gold. 
What else to say… When Dusknoir said to try keeping a journal, I didn't think it would be so hard to decide what to write! As always, his ideas are annoying and weirdly effective. It does feel like I'm not as frazzled now that I'm writing regularly. What else to include, though… 
Kip asked me if I wanted to move back in with him. I tried to, but I actually got homesick for Verdant Village after a while. We decided to just keep a room open for each other at each of our places so that we can crash at either house whenever we want to. He loves the library in Verdant Village whenever he comes over. I'm pretty sure the Swadloon that runs it has a crush on him, but I don't think he knows. I'm eager to see how long it takes for him to realize it. 
I finally took up Gardevoir on her offers to have me over for dinner. Lyra never fails to show off some new toy or trinket to me whenever I come visit. At first I thought that she just wanted to talk to someone new about her things, but it clicked for me the other day that she wanted to talk to me in particular about them. That… um. It was weird. Nice, but really weird. She's a good kid. 
I wonder if Manaphy is old enough to visit Treasure Town by now… I need to figure out how to contact Walrein. It's hard to send letters underwater, I think, but I'll figure something out. 
She set the journal aside and stretched her arms and back, rolling her shoulders as she stood up from the writing desk Kip had begged her to buy. It was more than worth the investment. She was never writing using the floor as a table again. Her entry for the day written, she stepped out into the warm sunlight trickling between the leaves overhead and started her usual routines. She chopped firewood, she brought water in from the spigot at the edge of her property to wash the dishes from last night, she went to the market and got some peppers that seemed like something fun to try cooking with. It was her day off between running her shop and going dungeon delving, so she decided to go for a walk like usual to kill time before she'd need to meet up with Gallade for Lyra's exploration lessons. 
The hiking trails were well-kept in Verdant Village, sometimes to the point of being better maintained than the main roads that people traveled through town with. Twig had discovered a number of real hidden gems since she'd moved back in, and she made use of them as often as possible. 
Oddly enough, apparently Darkrai frequented the trail she was on right then as well. 
She hadn't seen him since the day she bore her soul to everyone she'd been keeping secrets from. He'd vanished somewhere between their argument and the hug that sent her spiraling head first into all the heartbreak she'd been refusing to acknowledge, and he hadn't shown his face in the months after. Celebi kept in touch with him via telepathy and responded to Twig's occasional request for an update on where the heck is this guy and what the heck is he doing by saying that he was doing some traveling and thinking. Twig could believe the thinking bit— Darkrai was calculating and cautious, and Ark was analytical and prone to deliberation— but really? Traveling? It seemed strange to imagine the Legend as being a globetrotter all of a sudden. But then again, he had taken in all the sights on the way to Cresselia’s mountain with such awe and enthusiasm that it was easier to imagine him enjoying that sort of thing than she thought it should be. 
He was supposed to be traveling. He was supposed to be on some sort of quest of soul-searching and pondering. But here he was, several yards off the path, hidden in the foliage and tucked within the shadows. 
“Dude,” Twig eloquently began, “I can see you.”
There was a moment of hesitation before he rose from the shadows, plainly bewildered by her ability to pick him out amongst the dappled shade of the trail. 
She sighed. “You're still you–shaped when you do that. You mess up the rest of the shadows around you. And you're… I dunno how to put it, your shadow is noisy, I guess. If that even makes sense.” 
He hummed a low note. 
“I don't think I ever thanked you for what you did. Um. I appreciate it. Or at least I do now.”
He narrowed his eyes. “What do you have to thank me for?”
“Ark, I'm not stupid. It was pretty obvious looking back on things that you waited until I was in earshot of the gang to start really getting under my skin with what you asked me. If you hadn't, and if they hadn't overheard me chewing you out for it, I probably wouldn't have said anything to anyone about…” She waved a hand. “It's because you did that that I've been doing better, even if it's indirectly.”
“I see.”
“So, uh… How you been?” 
“Well enough,” he answered, and did not elaborate. 
She frowned. “Cool. Have you seen anything neat on your travels?”
“Many things.” 
“Many, huh? Stuff like…?”
“Nothing leaps to mind.”
He's way less chatty now. Weird. “When…” She leaned against a tree opposite to him and fidgeted with her hands, trying to summon the courage to ask him a question that had been eating away at her for months. “When did your memories come back?”
He gave her a wary look. “Why this interest?”
“I've had some other stuff come back for me while you were gone. I wanted to ask so I could get an idea of what's triggering their returns. It seems random at times.” 
Darkrai looked away for a moment, hackles raising. “It was… on the expedition we embarked on. You took a hit intended for myself. I recalled a young human doing the same for a grovyle, and somehow understood that it was you in the memory, though that was only the first to return.”
“The first—? You really only remembered that one snippet?”
“It was in bits and pieces that the entirety of my memory returned; a gradual process. Your rejection of my request to join Team Venture was when everything fell into place and I understood what the scattered recollections meant.”
That gave her pause. “You knew then? And you didn't say anything until I totally healed up from my leg getting broken?”
“It was… difficult to reconcile the perceptions I had of you. On the one hand, you were an adversarial nuisance who foiled my every effort to achieve anything. On the other, you had showed me a care I had not received in living memory and given me a new perspective.”
Huh. Celebi wasn't kidding about me changing his mind. Wonder how I managed that. “I can get that. It took me a bit to get used to the idea of you being so different when Cresselia first met you.”
He gave her a vicious glare, cold and poisonous. 
“Calm down. I'm not going to let anything slip about your past, especially when you haven't blabbed about mine. Thanks for that, by the way. Dunno if I could've handled Dark Crater if you had said anything back then.”
His glare twitched, venomousness flickering as it gave out into something softer, though schooled by an uneasy sternness. “My failure to blab did not come from a place of kindness at that point. It was leverage I didn't intend to give up. Surely you can grasp that.”
“I can. Doesn't change the fact you didn't say anything before I did.”
Silence. Leaves brushed together in quiet whispers as the wind passed through the treetops. The air was heavy around them. Twig could smell rain on its way. 
“I'm sorry,” he finally said, and Twig realized she hadn't been able to pick out the mournful crease of his brow or the barely noticeable desperation in his posture when she first met him in Mount Travail all that time ago. Before, he was practically unreadable to her. Now she was able to see the nervous twitch in his fingers, the hesitancy in his volume. He’d always seemed so closed-off in her mind’s eye, but he had swiftly become an open book, given time. 
She blinked, taken aback by his words. The shame in them, the disgust with himself— it was obvious he wasn't apologizing only for holding her past as leverage, and it was an apology he didn't expect to be accepted. 
“Hey.” She punched him in the arm, earning a startled grunt. “You got somewhere to stay?”
He squinted at her. “No.”
“I've got a bunch of spare rooms if you're down.” 
“If I'm—?” His eyes widened, then narrowed. “You're making fun of me.”
“Not in the slightest.”
“I…” He tilted his head slightly, looking like he was trying to pick out a seed of sarcasm he was convinced lay in her words. “If you're certain it is well with you.”
She nodded as a sense of heaviness lifted from her. Somehow, a weight she'd been carrying was taken away by those words. “I'm gonna finish my hike. Let's walk and talk; Celebi made it sound like you saw every corner of the globe and I want to hear the highlights.”
She started off down the path,  Darkrai falling into her wake as she passed. “Globes don't have corners. Not having corners is the entire purpose of a globe.” He sighed. “I suppose I could enlighten you. There was a number of locations you’d likely have found interesting. One in particular had a population that prided themselves on preserving a number of human words and phrases in their daily language…”
Twig enjoyed going for walks alone. It turned out she like to go for walks with company even more. 
***
Life was surprisingly mundane despite Twig having a Legend for a roommate. Darkrai insisted that Twig fill her house up with a more typical amount of furnishings, and Twig asked him what exactly she should fill the empty rooms with. He was at a loss and didn't answer. She had her suspicions that he hadn't been in many homes before, but didn't push him on the subject. She eventually figured out she'd been living almost exclusively out of her living room and that the numerous guest rooms in the back of the house were actually a study, a bedroom, and a pair of guest rooms, and that she should probably populate them with the proper furniture accordingly. Given time, Gardevoir no longer looked like she was going to have a conniption whenever she visited, and Twig was actually kind of proud of the decor she put together. 
It was during the evening as she looked over a bookcase she'd arranged a few books and keepsakes on, and she thought that she liked how she'd done it, that it occurred to her that this was the first time she could remember feeling proud of herself without any strings attached. She just liked how she'd angled a potted plant next to a stack of books. That was all. There was no baggage of doing it to make up for her being worthless or an awful, burdensome person— she'd simply done it for her own sake, and she liked what she'd done. That felt… weird. It felt weird, and scary in a number of ways. But she didn't run from it. She doubled down on her newfound pleasure in filling her home with pretty things. 
It was dumb to take so much joy in something so stupid. She didn't even have any system she used to decorate— she just stuck things where they looked nice with no rhyme or reason or even color palette to keep the baubles cohesive in their looks. It was dumb. But it was something that made her happy. It wasn't her usual kind of happy, either. This wasn't a flashbang of cheerfulness that faded fast and left her empty— it was quiet and warmed her bones even in the dead of night when she fought herself to get over her anxiety and insomnia and just sleep. 
It was easier to fight her insomnia hearing someone else moving about the house at night. Ark was quiet, but the muffled thud of a cabinet closing or a door creaking open as he went from room to room helped her feel like she could give up on her desperate need to be awake and aware at all times. She hadn't thought that sharing a home with him would ever be reassuring, but here she was— she'd woken up from a nightmare of her mind’s own making, another memory that the lunar feather hanging on her wall couldn't dissuade when it was busy canceling out Darkrai's aura already— gasping for breath and finally catching it when she heard the Legend getting himself a drink from the next room over. 
Her memories hadn't come back to her any more than they already had— it was still just those handfuls of images, of the days leading up to how she left her bunker to burn and now one nighttime vignette of Grovyle soothing her as a kid as well, that haunted her sleeping and waking hours. She wondered why her memories hadn't returned to her completely by now, especially when Darkrai's had despite him having amnesia for so much less time. Sometimes she wondered if maybe they'd never come back. But it was becoming more common these days for her to think that it wouldn’t be surprising if they were just dormant and waiting for a safe time to come back into the light. Given time, she was increasingly sure her past was bound to return to her in full, for better or for worse. 
She looked up from her journal. She wasn't writing a real entry at the moment, just flipping through old ones and adding a date here or there where she'd forgotten to include them. Ark was sat at the dining table, one of the heavier books he'd added to her collection sitting untouched before him as he instead pored over a thin book of fairy tales. It had been strange to get used to Darkrai and Ark being truly the same, but she supposed he had to get used to her being herself as well, so they were fairly even on that front. And besides— he still held a tambour and needle in the same way. 
She guessed not much had changed at all, in the end. He was still himself, whatever that meant, and she was still whoever Twig was. She still struggled to wrap her head around people loving her, but she was starting to see that there were some things about her worth caring about. There was still healing to do. There was so much of it that Twig found herself intimidated by recovery most days. There was so much healing to do ahead, but in the end, things had changed, just a little. She had some hope now. The past was still an enigma, the future was uncertain, but between the two sources of so much grief and anxiety lay something she was finally seeing as precious and lovely. The present was an excellent gift to receive, after all.  
She intended to cherish it.

Is Three Company or a Crowd?
I have had this part written for a bit now, but haven't had time to post. Hope everyone enjoys and thanks again to @storiesforallfandoms for the short story that inspired this story.
Tumblr media
Part 5
            Over the next four weeks you were somehow able to have multiple dates with both Matt and Skeet.  Each date left you more interested in each guy yet more confused on what to do and who to choose.  You did make sure to keep the one rule that Matt asked for, but you had some close calls with both men.  You decided that you needed to have a talk with the guys and figure out what to do together, so you invited both over to your house for dinner.  As you were finishing up the preparations for dinner, there was a knock at your door.  You opened it and both guys were standing there.  “Did you come together?”
            They shook their heads and Skeet replied.  “No.  We just happened to pull up at the same time.”  Skeet gave you a hug and a quick peck on the lips, then walked in followed by Matt doing the same.
            “I don’t think I’ve ever been kissed by two guys at basically the same time before.”  You said as you moved all your hair over your left shoulder.  “It feels kind of weird doing that.”
            Matt reached for your hand and gave it a squeeze.  “We both understand the strangeness of our situation right now and have decided to be cool with things like that.”
            “Yeah.”  Skeet reached out for your other hand.  “Because of you, Matt and I have been spending more time together too, so the conversation always makes it way over to our situation.”
            You slightly nodded.  “Well, dinner is in the oven.  Do we all want to go ahead and sit down and talk or save that until after dinner?”
            “Now’s as good a time as any.”  Matt said.  All three of you went and sat down at your kitchen table.  “Why don’t you go first.”
            You bit your lip and looked down at the table.  “Okay.  So, this last month has been great and I’ve loved getting to know you both better.  The problem is, I’m no closer to having a decision made than I was before this whole thing started.  You are both great guys and treat me so well.  Anything that one of you ‘lacks’ the other one has.  I have talked to friends about this, to my dads and even a campus counselor.  I’ve made pros and cons lists.  I’ve googled every article I could find on this situation and I still can’t choose who I want to progress forward with.  So…I wanted to let you both say your piece and hopefully we can figure this all out this evening.”  You started bouncing your leg and avoided eye contact with either man.
            The guys looked at each other and Matt decided to speak first.  “We know this is a super hard decision for you and we have tried our best to not add to that stress.  Like Skeet said, we’ve been spending a lot of time together too and I feel safe to say both of us are head over heels for you too, which doesn’t help at all.”
            You looked over at Skeet as he ran his hands through his hair.  “I agree with what Matt said.  I wish we could make this easier for you.”  You all sat in silence for a bit, then Skeet quietly said, “I do have an idea, but it’s out of the norm.”
            You looked at Matt, who looked confused, then at Skeet.  “I’m open to hearing any suggestions either of you have.”
            Skeet took a deep breath then started to speak.  “How about you don’t decide between us?  How about you keep dating both of us?  But instead of it being two separate couples, we become a throuple.”
            “A throuple?”  Matt tilted his head to the side.
            “Yeah.  We’ll all three be in a relationship together.  We spend most of our time all together, but we also have dates with you, Katy, and even with each other if we want.”  Skeet looked at Matt then back to you.  “We’d have to come up with rules on how to handle it all and it would mean all living together and probably all sharing a bed but…”
            You tapped your finger on the table.  “Are you just wanting to have threesomes?”
            “No, that’s not what this is about but that is something we could discuss if everyone is open to it.  It is something Matt and I have been apart of before.”  Skeet rubbed his beard as you tried to keep from your jaw hitting the floor at this revelation.  “A throuple was something I ran across when I was doing my research on our situation and sounded like it might work for us.”  You and Matt both sat silently, letting things sink in.  “We don’t have to make a final decision tonight on it.  We could just try it out for a week or two and see how it feels.”
            Matt shook his head.  “How would that even work?  The trying it out.”
            Skeet leaned back in his seat.  “Well, we could talk out some ground rules tonight and officially start tomorrow or the next day.  If Katy is cool with it, we could all stay here so that she isn’t forced to live out of a suitcase.”
            You moved your hair over your right shoulder.  “You want to both move in with me for two weeks and try out this throuple thing?”
            “Yeah.”  Skeet said.  “If it works for all of us, then we decide how we want it to look long term and if it doesn’t work, then we are back to you having to decide who you want to be with.”
            You felt like your head was spinning.  “Matt, what do you think about this idea?”
            Matt took a very slow, deep breath.  “I’ve heard of polyamorous relationships before.  Ace even considered one at one point, but I’ve never thought about it being something I might consider for myself before.”  You all three sat silent for a bit until Matt spoke again.  “But Skeet does have a point.  It lets all of us continue to build our relationships instead of having to make a choice none of us are ready to make.  And a trial run lets us dip our toes in without having to jump all the way in.”
            Skeet included, “At the end of the day, you have all the power.”  He pointed to you.  “You can end it whenever you want and you have the first say in anything that happens or any rule that needs to be made.”
            Matt chuckled.  “Skeet and I would basically be brother husbands.”
            You let out a small giggle and shook your head.  You opened your mouth to speak right as the timer buzzed on your oven.  You got up and removed your Mexican lasagna and started dishing out pieces onto the plates you had sitting on your island.  You brought two plates over and sat them down in front of the guys while Matt opened the bottle of wine you had sitting on the table and poured it into the three glasses set out.  You went and got your plate and set it on the table, took a sip of your wine then said, “Okay…I am open to the idea of the three of us being in one relationship, but I can’t say yes or no until I know the rules.”  You took your phone out of your pocket and opened your notes app.  “So, let’s figure those out and then I’ll decide if I’m willing to give this a trial run.”  The guys nodded in agreement, so while you all ate dinner the three of you came up with the rules for this experiment.  When the meal was over you asked the guys to wait in the living room while you cleaned up the kitchen and thought about everything.  On one hand, it felt like a silly choice young people might pick, not two 50-year-olds and a 40-year-old.  On the other hand, it lets you continue to build your relationships, without the no sex rule hanging over your head.  You put the last of the dishes in the dishwasher then walked into the living room where both guys were sitting on your couch, quietly chatting.  You sat down on the coffee table across from the guys.  You reached out to hold each guy’s hand.  You looked up and made eye contact with Skeet, then Matt, then down at your hands holding theirs.  “Okay.  Let’s give this a try.”  You felt Skeet squeeze your hand.  “Come over tomorrow around 7pm and we will get you both settled in.  I’ll get house keys made for you both tomorrow.”
            “Great!”  Skeet exclaimed.
            Matt reached over and put his other hand on your knee.  “Are you sure you are okay with this and want to try it?  I don’t want you to feel forced into anything you don’t want to do.”
            You gave a small nod.  “The only way to see is to try, but I would be lying if I said I’m 100% down for this entire lifestyle change.”  You got up and sat between the boys on the couch.  Matt wrapped his arm around your shoulder and Skeet placed his hand on your thigh.  You let out a sigh.  “Are you two going to try to build a romantic relationship as well?”
            Skeet squeezed your leg.  “I honestly don’t know.  I love Matt and have for almost 30 years, but I’ve never looked at him in a romantic way.  But like Matt said earlier, he and I have been apart of a few threesomes before and I always loved watching Matt take his turn with the girl, so you never know.”
            Matt looked over at Skeet and gave a few blinks.  “You get off watching me with the girl?”
            Skeet shrugged.  “Yeah.  You are so good with your hands and I sometimes wonder what it would feel like if I was your focus instead of the girl.  Not that I’ve ever thought on acting on that before.  Just wondered.”  Skeet let out a small laugh.  “Plus, your dick is huge.  I wouldn’t know what to do with all that.”
            You interrupted.  “Excuse me…what?”
            Matt blushed and nodded.  “I have been very blessed.  But Skeet’s is a nice size too.”
            “I’m always a bit smaller than you, though, in every way.”  Skeet joked.
            You rose your hand.  “Stop, stop…I can’t handle all that information right now.”  You looked over at Skeet.  “How many threesomes have you two been in?”  Your voice cracked as you asked the question.
            Skeet bit his lip.  “I’d say maybe five times in the past ten years or so, but usually with one of our girlfriends.”
            Matt added.  “One time with a co-star of his and once with a fan after she did a professional photo op with us at a convention where she asked to have the picture pose be the Eiffel Tower sex position.”
            “That was an interesting evening.”  Skeet had a huge smile on his face.  “But again, I don’t want the point of this throuple to be about threesomes.  But, I also won’t turn down a threesome if you both are interested, though.”
            You shook your head.  “I’ve barely made it to third base with either of you yet.  I’m not ready for a fucking home run derby night one…or maybe ever.”
            Skeet picked up your hand and kissed it.  “That’s why we start slow and go at whatever pace you want to set.  How about for tonight we turn on a movie and we all just cuddle up and enjoy?”
            Matt agreed.  “Sounds good to me.”
            You nodded.  “Okay.”  You all picked out a movie and got comfy on the couch.  Matt played with your hair while Skeet held your hand and rubbed his thumb against your hand.  You couldn’t pay attention though as you ran through the rules over and over in your head and tried to figure out how to make this whole situation work and wondering how you were going to keep yourself from falling for one more than the other when just a few hours ago the problem was that you liked them evenly.

What if: what if Lani Akana became the blue ranger with Amelia, in DF episode 1, instead of Ollie? (And what if she was still Ollie’s mom, so Ollie now becomes the side character??)
*quietly manifests something soft*
It would be a shift in the status quo, because it would have to be; to go along with the plotting for CF.
As much as she would probably hate the idea of being away from her son and her work; Lani wants to help the world.
But also she wants to be able to help these kids.
It just happens to be a bonus that she would get to meet Solon very quickly and take the first step into a relationship for the first time since Lani became pregnant with Ollie.
Javi and Amelia would be able to recognize that there was something underneath their friendship, because there would be these knowing glances Lani tossed their way.
Fern would be strung into the Ranger orbit more quickly, because a Blue can always sense an Orange better when they're more in tune with the people around them, not stuck in their own head, with low self-esteem and the need to be right.
Ollie would go to work for Cranston Techs, and much like Grace, Billy would be able to spot a Ranger the first time Lani stepped into the offices even if Ollie wasn't brought into the secret.
It would give Ollie to chance for a father figure, in a quiet, professional kind of setting; but not like with his teacher, because Billy has knowledge of neurodivergence and esteem issues; he would send Ollie to a staff psychologist the first time he got in an explosive argument with a colleague.
There would be a weird kind of tug-of-war inside Lani, noticing when she's home how much more confidence Ollie seemed to have with a decrease in arrogance; happiness for her son growing, a sadness for not being the one to know what he needed.
Lani's existence in the team would be an interesting commodity. Femme Blues are rare, so when Amelia gets the Red from Zayto, there is a kind of peacefulness on the ship, even if they are stuck across the galaxy with a senior Blue in Billy on the ship along with them.
Zayto turns evil because of Zedd; we get our Violet Ranger and we don't get all the Zords wiped out. We get Aiyon becoming more pro-active with Billy being another kind of useful parenting figure.
Lani, Billy, and Solon make AWESOME mentors.
And as such, they get in contact with Earth much earlier in the game, because they think ahead. Billy's boyfriends, Matt and Skull, are asked to get in contact with Ollie through Cranston Tech and Promethea. They send out SOS programs so Heckyl and Tarrick can lend a hand against the enemy.
Aiyon keeps calling back when he feels lonely, or when Javi loses his arm, or when they get into another and another and another fight with Zayto. Which would be an inconvenience if Ollie wasn't staying at the Skullovitch house because Lani insisted he not be alone in case of a catastrophe.
Honestly, I could just see this whole thing playing out more softly with Lani around; not definitive steps taken. Just...niceness.
Relationships: Lani Akana/Solon; Javi Garcia/Amelia Jones; Izzy Garcia/Fern; Aiyon/Ollie Akana; Billy Cranston/Eugene Skullovitch/Matt Cook. Additional Tags: Scalie Lani; Hypercompetent Girlboss Central; Ollie is Gay and Figures it Out Much Sooner; Orange and Blue Ranger Relationship Fun; Aiyon gets so many parents; Lani rips the Warden a New One.
