[in komorebian] Ichiro: I hope I’m not interrupting. Wyatt: No, your timing is suspiciously impeccable. Ichiro: You know she’s married, don’t you? Wyatt: [shrugs] I’m not. Ichiro: A man your age should be. Wyatt: Did you come over for supper, or just to be nosy? Ichiro: Both. Wyatt: Well, at least you’re honest. … [Ichiro, Wyatt’s neighbour, was a lonely widower with two adult sons who never visited him. He was a kind and interesting man whose company Wyatt didn’t particularly mind; but he sure knew how to overstay his welcome, and stick his nose in where it didn’t belong] [Wyatt stared at the television, hoping Ichiro would get the message and change the subject. He didn’t…] Ichiro: You’re wasting your time with a woman like that. Wyatt: It’s just se-… Ichiro: For now. Wyatt: I’m definitely not interested in forming a relationship with her, Ichiro.. it’s really not that deep. Ichiro: Alright, alright. Wyatt: Any other advice? Ichiro: More salt next time. Wyatt: [snorts] Noted-.. now shoo, I’ve got work to do. Ichiro: At this hour? Wyatt: Sure. Ichiro: [laughs] Kaito and his market. You know.. it’s clearly not paying off, not if you’re still here. Wyatt: Maybe I’m just modest. Ichiro: Aha! Of course. Wyatt: Don’t forget your shoes this time. [Ichiro scoffs, humorously muttering something about Kaito’s eagerness to point out his elderly flaws and his general lack of respect]

like a deer — yandere! poly! stuilly x male! prescott! reader
Tumblr media
length: 1.1k
requested by 🌀!!
the plot of this one one got away from me a little bit whoops
major tws: murder (duh), graphic depictions of violence, major character death (it’s not you or our pretty boys though <3), knifeplay? idk they get real fucking horny with it, dubcon!! serious dubcon with the knife stuff, billy also gets kinda slutty with blood too srry, a kind of graphic description of a roadkill deer, some of that nice 90s internalized homophobia, obsessive behavior, possessive behavior, manipulation/coercion? sort of?, these little homosexual freaks are unhinged (you included)
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
The first to go was Casey Becker.
Your next door neighbor.
They’d found her hanging from a tree in her front yard, gutted like a deer.
You, of course, had been the first person questioned by the police. Shaken and disturbed, you’d quickly found solace in your best friends, Billy and Stu.
~~~
The glass of Stu’s bedroom window was cold against your knuckles as you rapped on it. You only had to wait a moment in the freezing cold before the window slid open, a sleepy Billy rubbing his eyes as he let you inside.
“You forgot to put the spare key back under the doormat, you asshole,” you grumble to Stu as you clamber into his massive rich-boy bed. The taller boy giggles, wrapping his arms around you.
The two of them had always been touchy with you. Always with a hand on your hip or your lower back, an arm slung over your shoulders, interlaced fingers…
(You had your own suspicions that Billy and Stu might be…together, but you’d never say it aloud.)
It was totally normal for guys to share a bed at a sleepover, right? Girls do it all the time.
Totally normal.
~~~
Next to go was your girlfriend, Heather.
You didn’t feel sad. You felt…numb. You felt nothing.
I’m just so sad that I can’t even feel anything, you reasoned with yourself, trying not to think too much about Billy’s hand wandering a little closer to your ass than usual as he wrapped you up in a sympathetic hug. That’s it. Of course. Boys always feel relieved when their girlfriends die. That’s totally normal. Everything’s fine.
~~~
One by one, your friend group was shrinking. People were being killed off left and right. You’d gotten the news about Janis right you and Billy left the movie theater. Sadie had been found in the pool by her big brother while you were busy beating Stu ass at Chutes and Ladders. When Wyatt turned up dead, you’d been taking a joyride with Billy in his dad’s Viper. When Teddy died, you’d been getting ice cream with Stu.
All four were found gutted.
Like deer.
Despite how much they’d been hanging out with you as of late, you’d declined Billy and Stu’s invitation to come hunting with them that weekend.
~~~
“You wanna come over after school? My dad’s outta town, so we can watch whatever the hell we want.”
“Can’t. I’ve got, uh, homework,” you lie, refusing to meet Billy’s eyes as you slammed your locker shut and hurried away.
~~~
“You’ve been avoiding us all week,” Billy accuses, stepping in front of the door to block your exit as you try to leave the cafeteria
“Did we do something wrong?” Stu asks anxiously, fluttering around by Billy’s side.
“No! No. Of course not.”
“Then why are you avoiding us?”
You bite your lip, nervous to tell them the truth.
“I’m afraid you two will be next.”
~~~
Absently, you wonder how Stu’s going to get all of that blood out of his nice beige sweater. You’d bought him that sweater last year for Christmas.
Stu kneels in front of you, resting his bloody hands on your hips as he looks up at you imploringly. “Please forgive us?”
How do you get blood out of clothes? Cold water? Or— is it warm water? Sidney would know. You ought to ask her.
“Baby?” Stu begs, his fingers curling in your shirt as he grips you tightly.
Oh. Right. You can’t ask Sidney.
She’s dead.
Billy is skillfully using his body to block your view of the carnage on the floor, doing his best to keep you from freaking out.
His hands are on you, running through your hair, lightly touching your cheek. He’s sticky, with your sister’s blood, your father’s blood, Stu’s blood, his own blood, and fucking corn syrup.
“Sweetheart?” Stu questions, hooking a finger through the belt loop of your jeans and tugging on it lightly. “See? We love you.”
You’re horrified. They murdered thirteen people to show their love.
(You would’ve been fine with just a box of chocolates and some flowers, but y’know. Billy refuses to half-ass things.)
“Do you need us to prove it to you?”
Stu’s got a crazed look in his eye that makes you shrink back. But Billy’s grip on you is tight enough that you can barely move at all, forced to watch as Stu yanks off his ruined sweater, unabashedly moaning like a slut when the fabric catches on his fresh stab wounds, ripping back open the flesh that was so desperately trying to knit itself back together.
Billy hands Stu his buck knife, watching with rapt attention as the man holds it over his chest. Stu doesn’t even flinch, watching in a trance as the tip of the blade sinks into his flesh, droplets of red already welling to the surface. He drags the blade along his skin, carving your initials into his chest, right above his heart.
When he’s finished, he hands the knife back to Billy, who reverently takes it, studying the fresh red sheen on the metal before pressing his tongue flat against the side of the blade and licking off Stu’s blood.
You look away, disgusted and somehow turned on at the same time.
(You can’t help but sneak a look when the two boys share a messy, blood- and spit-soaked kiss. Fuck.)
Billy yanks off his corn syrup-stained white shirt, tossing it carelessly on the floor, where it hits your dead father in the face. He steadies the knife, holding it over his chest and doing the same thing as Stu just did.
You choke out a sob, unable to rectify this image of your boys as psychotic murderers with the image of them just last night, cuddling up with you in bed and leeching off of your warmth and rambling about horror movies.
“Sweetheart?” Billy murmurs, cupping your face in his hand. “Look. Look, see? We love you. We love you.”
They love you. They love you.
You keep mentally repeating that mantra to yourself. Even as you are forced to scrunch your eyes through the pain of the knife carving two sets of initials into your chest. Even as you look at the bodies of your sister and father one last time. Even as Billy scoops you up to carry you to Stu’s van in a way that’s supposed to be playful but just comes across as a final doomed death sentence, the clang! of a prison door slamming shut. You repeat your mantra even as you pass by the bodies of Randy and Dewey; even the mutilated body of that obnoxious bitch from Top Story makes you have to look away.
They love you. They love you.
Stu drives, on the lamb. Billy lays in the back with you, curled up with you on the bed in Stu’s stupid “shaggin’ wagon”.
Your eyes are glued to the smiley-face shaped air freshener dangling from Stu’s rear view mirror. You can’t look at Billy right now.
They love you. They love you.
You can almost trick yourself into believing it, at least for a little while.
But the sight of the dead deer on the side of the road, visible through the front windshield, its chest smashed and broken like a piñata, sends you spiraling.
When you look back at the stupid air freshener hanging from the mirror, its bright yellow face smiling at you only feels mocking and cruel. All you can see is Casey’s body hanging from that damned tree.
They love you. They love you.

jamie and reader looking through baby names :((
[ what’s in a name ] j. drysdale
Tumblr media
paring : Jamie Drysdale x fem!reader
summary : Jamie and his girlfriend try to find the perfect baby name
warning(s) : none really
author’s note : this is very dialogue heavy btw. it’s very conversation based. also kinda short oops
༺═──────────────═༻
Baby Drysdale is due in a month and they still don’t have a name. The nursery in their new house is Voorhees got done before they found a baby name.
There was a time where she knew what she wanted her baby's name to be. She was also ten. Now she’s an adult and is in charge of naming an actual human being.
Today is the day though. She and Jamie are going to sit down and pick out their baby’s name. Baby Drysdale will have a name before coming into the world if it’s the last thing they do.
Jamie sits at the kitchen island with a notebook while she runs around the kitchen to cook dinner. She’s been craving a baked dish so she’s making lasagna for them.
“Do we want a neutral gender name?” Jamie questions. “Since we don’t know if the baby’s a boy or a girl. We can come up with names for both a boy and a girl if you want too.”
She gently stirs the large pasta noodles as she thinks. “I think gender neutral is good,” she replies. “I do have one request though.”
“What?”
“If we have a girl, her middle name is Marie for my mom.”
She looks up to look at her boyfriend and Jamie smiles at her. “Absolutely,” he says. “I won’t say no to that.”
Her mom died about three months before they found out they were expecting Baby Drysdale. It’s like she sent them the little angel growing in her daughter’s belly. That is why Baby Drysdale’s middle name will be Marie if they are a girl.
Jamie scribbles down the idea. “Okay, we have a middle name,” he comments. “If we have a girl. What about if we have a boy?”
She wracks her brain as she tries to think about a middle name if Baby Drysdale is a boy. “What about your brother or dad?” she asks. “Maybe a grandfather that meant a lot to you? Any of their names?”
Her boyfriend sighs behind her. “I mean, my dad’s name is Gary and my brother’s name is Charlie,” he replies. “I wasn’t super close to my grandfathers so I wouldn’t want to name our baby after one of them.”
“I like Charlie as a middle name,” she comments. “Would he mind if we stole his name?”
Jamie laughs. “I don’t think he’ll mind,” he tells her. “He would probably love it.”
“Then Charlie as a middle name if Baby Drysdale is a boy,” she says.
She pours the cooked pasta into a strainer in the sink so she can start layering the dish. “Now we need a first name,” Jamie says. “Especially a name that goes with both middle names we picked out.”
There’s movement behind her and she glances back. He is grabbing is laptop and bringing it back to the island. “What are you doing?” she questions.
“I am going to find a list of names and we are going to go through it until we find one we both like,” he says as he types something. “And the baby’s name isn’t going to be something basic and common either. We’re going all in.”
She laughs and layers the dish. “Alright,” she sighs. “Hit me with some names.”
“We got Avery first on the list,” Jamie tells her.
Avery Marie or Avery Charlie. “I’d like it better as a girl’s name,” she admits. “Avery Marie sounds very pretty.”
Jamie scribbles that done. “I agree,” he replies. “Next we have Taylor.”
She thinks about it as she licks some sauce off her finger. “I like it,” she says. “For both.”
More scribbling as she throws a layer of foil on top of the dish. “Next we have Wyatt,” Jamie says. “I will say that I am not a fan of this name. It doesn’t go well with either middle name.”
“Agreed. Next.”
There’s a moment of silence between them as she puts the dish in the oven and timer. She walks over to Jamie and wraps her arms around him from behind so she can see over his shoulder. “How about Silas if Baby D is a boy?” he asks. “It just popped up at a separate list at the end.”
Silas Charlie. “I love it,” she replies. She watches Jamie write it down.
“So I think we have our names,” Jamie comments. “Avery if Baby D is a girl and Silas if Baby D is a boy.” He looks up at her.
Without realizing it, tears well in her eyes. “We have our names,” she echoes. The tears spill onto her cheeks.
Jamie turns in the high stool and faces her. “Baby, you don’t have to cry,” he coos as he uses his thumbs to dry her tears. “This is supposed to be a happy moment.”
“I know,” she laughs. “I can’t help it. I’m a very emotional person right now.”
He pulls her into a hug and rests a hand on her belly to give the baby a hug. “I love you both,” Jamie says. “Emotions and all.”
She laughs and rests her cheek on her boyfriend’s head as he gently rubs her belly.

Fatherhood: Carmy Berzatto
I did a similar post for Billy Hargrove a while back. Why not do one with our favorite chef? This also may be an intro to a new series.
The Bear Masterlist
Tumblr media
In early 2018, Carmy lived with his cousin Michelle and her long-term boyfriend, Steven. He enjoyed spending time with her before finding a SOU position at some hot shot’s new restaurant. He enjoyed his time there- at least as much as Carmy could.
After moving out of her guest bedroom, he found a decent apartment near The French Laundry. This led him to meet Amanda at a local coffee shop.
Amanda was Carmy’s polar opposite. She was a model/influencer/actress who found Carmy interesting enough during their initial meeting. Finding out he was a ‘celebrity’ chef made her pursue him. 
The two didn’t have a lot in common, but Carmy being the stupid horny 25-year-old he was, didn’t particularly mind. She was something to keep his mind busy when he wasn’t cooking.
The two hadn’t been together long when Amanda sent him a picture of a positive pregnancy test and a Venmo request for half the cost of an abortion. He couldn’t do it. His sweet Nonna’s voice echoed in his head, going on about how life began at conception and how abortion was the ultimate insult to God- he didn’t intentionally try to guilt Amanda or force her into doing anything she didn’t want to do, but listening to his sweet promises of raising a baby together was… convincing. At least at first. 
COVID shutdowns proved difficult for the two. Amanda felt like a shut-in. Carmy was getting on her nerves more and more every day. Although the pregnancy content she was getting out of this arrangement was a bankroll, Carmy turned from her hot celebrity chef boy toy to her ‘controlling’ baby daddy. Every like she got on Instagram, every brand deal, every positive comment, and well-wish almost made it worth it.
Carmy ensured she was eating well and living a relatively low-stress life. He did everything he could to make this pregnancy as smooth as possible.
Michelle was the only person he’d told about Amanda and their baby. She, of course, told Natalie and the other cousins. At first, Natalie didn’t believe her. Carmy hadn’t dated in high school, and truthfully, she wasn’t sure about the escapades he’d gotten himself into when he lived in Europe, but she couldn’t see her baby brother as some international playboy. Of course she Instagram stalked Amanda for weeks, trying to figure out their ‘relationship’ timeline. Natalie decided she hated Amanda- she’d been using her baby brother to up her own status. 
Carmy was nervous when the two found out the baby was a boy. Growing up without his Dad and Mikey as a father figure- he didn’t think he could be a Dad. He devoted hours of his life reading everything he could to prepare for this new role.
Amanda went into labor early. Thirty hours later, Wyatt Arlo Berzatto was born. Carmy was in love with him the moment he saw him.
Parenthood was more challenging than Carmy originally thought. With New York reopening, The French Laundry was determined to get back in the green. Carmy worked 14-18 hours a day, and for the remaining hours of his days, he dedicated himself to being the best Dad he could be. He had a routine for the most part. He’d take care of Wyatt’s first feeding and change him before getting some morning snuggles in. At work, he turned his brain off. He was a machine; every plate was perfect, and every chop was precise. After work, Carmy would go home to a crying baby and a crying pseudo-girlfriend. He took care of Wyatt while Amanda locked herself away in the bedroom. Carmy got used to it; he didn’t realize what was happening until it happened.
The day Amanda abandoned them was a memory burned into Carmy’s head, not because of his feelings toward Amanda but because she’d left his eight-month-old son alone for who knows how long. He walked into the apartment to hear Wyatt’s crying- it didn’t register at first; this was a different cry. It was a high-pitched, intense wailing that Carmy had never heard. He scrambled into the nursery. He wasn’t sure how long Wyatt had been crying. Carmy had scooped him up in his arms and tried his best to soothe him. Wyatt hadn’t eaten or been changed since that morning. Carmy wasn’t sure how long Amanda had left Wyatt alone; all he knew was she was gone. 
With Amanda's limited support, fatherhood had been hard enough, but it was a whole other can of worms without it. He was worried that Wyatt would be traumatized for the rest of his life because of his mother’s actions.
As soon as Carmy had finally gotten into a normal routine again, he got the call. Natalie had been bugging him to come home to visit with Wyatt. Carmy was going to ignore her call that night while he lay in bed with one of Wyatt’s feet in his face, but his gut said to answer. Mikey was gone. Carmy sobbed; he felt like he was going to throw up until he was met with a stubby finger poking his eye. 
Wyatt didn’t know what was happening, in his short life, he’d never seen his dad like this. He poked Carmy’s eye again before pushing his stuffed duck in Carmy’s direction, babbling something before screaming ‘Dada’ at the top of his lungs. Carmy watched his son throw himself against his chest as tears poured from his eyes; he had to be strong for him.

Rhys Darby has ‘not an ounce of scaredness’ about son’s band dreams
NZ actor Rhys Darby and his musician son Finn interview each other. VIDEO CREDIT: David White/Stuff
Rhys Darby is proudly listing career moments - but they’re not his own.
He’s recalling watching his son Finn’s band, Great Big Cow, “absolutely rock” iconic LA venue Troubadour to sold-out crowds.
As a parent, “you worry about a bit of nepotism,” he admits.
“Are we just ‘yay, our boys!’ when really they’re dreadful?”
But, he says, the band’s indie folk rock is “brilliant”, and keeps getting better. And, he insists, people are paying attention.
“We’re shocked as parents a little bit,” he jokes.
The band, Rhys and I are nestled between a Street Fighter arcade game and a pinball machine, in a dark corner of Auckland’s Whammy Bar. The US-based teen band has been sound-checking for their first international show.
Rhys has donned weathered jeans and a plaid jacket - approved by Finn. His son is wearing Dad’s socks for the night. While Rhys talks, Finn pulls faces and shares quiet in-jokes with his band mates. There are plenty of laughs.
Finn, Paolo Pesce, Will Angarola and Wyatt Nash originally played together in a school jazz combo, and went on to form Great Big Cow in 2022.
Tumblr media

Now, Rhys insists, they have a growing fanbase. Some of whom “[do] that thing where you dance really closely … Moshing”. He points to my notebook.
“Put down there that I did know what moshing is.”
Sure, Rhys Darby - one of New Zealand’s most well-known comedy exports - helped the band get bums on seats and lock in bigger venues, but they were also recently featured on LA public radio station KCRW’s Young Creators Project, can be found on Spotify and their mainstay is house parties.
“I think because I'm a bigger deal [in NZ], it might have been a little different. In LA, no-one really gives a shit about who I am,” he laughs, looking over at Finn who’s patiently had his hand raised while Dad spoke.
There are people and groups in LA that have helped the band too, says Finn, and he’s not sure those opportunities would have happened back in NZ.
“I would have got you on bFM for sure,” Rhys quips back.
He looks on at Finn’s creative path with, “not an ounce of scaredness”.
“Obviously as a child I had many different dreams, but at the base of everything was art and performance,” he says, describing his younger self as a “dreamer” who wanted to entertain.
Tumblr media

“When it comes to [my kids], I see different ambitions, but they have the artistic talent - I’m completely open to whatever they want to do. I’ll always be there for them.”
Where New Zealand has a bit of a reputation for tall poppy syndrome and an air of negativity, LA is hugely positive, says Rhys - especially for fostering young talent.
And it was in LA, at a house party, that Finn recalls being caught up in the “electric energy” of playing live.
“The whole audience was moving. And I think two people got lifted up above the crowd and surfed around above the crowd,” he says.
Finn’s not the only Darby putting in some work while in Aotearoa. Following Rhys’s joint 50th celebration with wife Rosie, he’ll be returning to the local stage, performing his Rhys Darby 25 Years stand-up show at Waiheke Island’s Wild Estate on April 3.
It encompasses the best bits from his previous shows, but performing it at Waiheke is “just another excuse to put on a show, really”, and to show his US mates another part of Auckland.
Rhys Darby, following a stint in the army and then university, kicked off his career with stand-up, before becoming a household name with an impressive TV and film CV, including Flight of the Conchords, Yes Man, The Boat that Rocked and Our Flag Means Death.
As for whether he still loves stand-up, “love is a strong word”, he laughs.
“I still enjoy it. But it's it's less of a thrill than it used to be.”
What he’s really loving is throwing himself into acting, and challenging himself with more dramatic roles - different to the very physical, crazy “shenanigans on stage”, requiring more focus for the comedian and “not just being a silly bugger”.
Plus, he’s 50 now.
“It’s much easier to do the stuff where I'm just sitting down,” he laughs.
Still, there’s no denying he’s been part of a movement that threw New Zealand comedy into the wider world, and he speaks proudly about his own work, but also that of other Kiwis such as filmmaker Taika Waititi and actor Rose Matafeo.
It’s a type of comedy, he says, that “has a signature” and can’t be copied.
Tumblr media

“I think it’s that positivity thing, which is ironic coming from a place with tall poppy syndrome. We don’t like each other but you guys love us, eh?”
It’s one of the reasons Darby is still living in LA, “still waving the flag [and] not changing my accent”.
And while Darby’s big break may have been the role of band manager Murray, when it comes to Great Big Cow he and Rosie “don’t want to be helicopter parents too much”.
“We're there when they have a question.”
And while Rhys says he can’t talk about any of his own projects, Finn interrupts with a quiet word about vague plans for a comedy musical theatre show featuring Rhys and the band.
Looking back at his own career, the highlight was breaking into the US market - name-dropping X Files and Our Flag Means Death as highlights.
“What's next? It's all peaks and troughs,” he says - mentioning Hollywood is turning to AI, but “thankfully, there's no one that can do a better robot impression than me”.
Still, the changing industry is worrying.
“People are losing their jobs, and AI is having a lot to do with it,” he says - dropping the quips and gags for a moment.
“After the strikes, I know, it's taken a while to get the industry back on its feet, but I'm hoping that it will get there,” he says.
“But it is worrying. It's really worrying the moment.”

AEW/ NJPW Wrestlers Pregnancy Headcannons
Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Main Masterlist
Wrestlers Mentioned: El Phantasmo, Drilla Moloney, Clark Connors, PAC, Jon Moxley
(Mentions of abortion)
Tumblr media
El Phantasmo
It was no secret Riley had been going through a touch time. He was depressed, he felt alone. All his friends had moved on from New Japan yet he coudn't get himself to leave the place he called home for so many years. When you found out you were pregnant you were shocked. You didn't think it would happen so soon. Sure you and Riley talked about wanting to start a family but now that you were pregnant you started to have second thoughts. When you told Riley you were pregnant he was over the moon. It was like he was relieved. His mood was instanly changed. He was instantly out of his depressive state. RIley was so exited to be a dad, he was contanly buying things for the new baby and woudn't leave your side. He was so supportive and encouraging during your whole pregnancy. There was nothing he woudn't do. The two of you ended up having a son and he and Riley instantly became best friends. It was almost like your son saved Riley.
Drilla Moloney
You were terrified when you found out you were pregnant. You and Dan where nothing more than friends that sometimes slept together. You didn't want to tell him about the pregnancy, in fact you didn't even want to keep the baby. Your friends convinced you to at least tell Dan about the baby before making any decisions. When you told him about the baby he was mortified. He was in no state to have a child. Dan was supportive during the process, he went with you all your appotiments and was understanding when you told him you didn't want to go through with the pregnancy. At the end of the day your relationship grew closer due to all of it.
Clark Connors
When you found out you were pregnant you knew it was more than likley you would have to do it on your own. Clark was terrfied when he found out he was going to be a father. All he did was party and do drugs, simular to what you did. He saw how easy it was for you to get your act together and get clean after finding out you were pregnant but knew he wouldn't be able to follow suit. For the majority of your pregnancy you were alone. It was hard, it was depressing. You didn't know how you would be able to raise a daughter on your own, especially in this economy. You called Clark dozens of times but it was no worth it. Two weeks before you have birth to your daughter Madaline, Clark showed up at your front door in tears. His hands were filled with gifts as he begged for foegiveness. He explained how he checked himself into a rehab and got sober. He admited to being a jerk and was genuinely sorry. He wanted to be apart of you and your daughters life. Clark would end up being a great dad. He spoiled your daughter and would play dress up with her. In fact he was such a good Dad you would end up having 3 more kids together.
PAC
Pac and his son were best friends. It was like you cloned your husband. Your son Wyatt was a absolute menance, he was a little bastard like his father. I just know Pac and his son would get up into trouble. The two of them were in a constant prank war to see who could scare you the most. He would teach Wyatt how to hunt, fish, fight and more than likley some illegal things aswell. When you told Pac you were first pregant the look on his face told you he was planning on knocking you up. You wondered if he replaced your birth control for sugar pills. I feel like Pac would be obsessed with your pregnant body, he loved the way your skin glowed and body changed. He wanted to keep you pregnant all the time.
Jon Moxley
Mox is such a girl Dad (I mean look at him and Nora). He would spoil your daughter to death. From a far he looked scary. He was always that sketchy looking guy at the park that often scared the other parents. But up close he loved your daughter. He would spend hours playing with her. She would play dress up with him, do this makeup and play with dolls together. Mox's soft spot was his daughter. Even though he did lots of "girlie' things with your daughter he made sure to teach her every sport. He would teach her Death Jitsu and how to fend for herself in the scary world. When you told him you were pregnant he was so happy. He coudn't wait to be a dad. He truly is the best father.

The Life of Us We Can't Get Back (byler): December 21, 1990
word count: 2,103
Tumblr media
My father’s attitude was that this was but an inevitable phase of my growing up and he affected to take it lightly. But beneath his jocular, boys-together air, he was at a loss, he was frightened. Perhaps he had supposed that my growing up would bring us closer together— whereas now that he was trying to find out something about me, I was in full flight from him. I did not want him to know me. I did not want anyone to know me. And then, again, I was undergoing with my father what the very young inevitably undergo with their elders: I was beginning to judge him. And the very harshness of this judgment, which broke my heart, revealed, though I could not have said it then, how much I had loved him, how that love, along with my innocence, was dying.
The screams of the tea kettle startled me out of my place in “Giovanni’s Room,” by James Baldwin. I hadn’t gotten very far— I was only on page sixteen— but was already beginning to relate to the tortured yet compelling musings of the protagonist, David. I had already found and ended things with my “Hella,”— multiple Hellas— and my “Giovanni,” was out, working at the local coffee shop. The coffee shop where he still worked with his ex-boyfriend, Matt Winters. According to Will, their most recent breakup was mutual, but they were still friendly with one another, which… if I was being totally honest, bothered me just a little bit. Although, I’d be a total hypocrite if I were to ask Will to distance himself from Matt, because I still considered Wyatt Bowman to be one of my best friends. In fact, he was the first person I called when Will and I got together. I was pretty sure I’d called Wyatt from the foot of the bed, being sure to whisper the news quietly while Will slept.
The tea kettle obviously wasn’t going to stop on its own, so I stuck the dilapidated post-it with Will’s phone number in Joyce’s handwriting on the page I was reading and sat up from my position on the couch. I shuffled over to the stove on the balls of my fuzzy sock-covered feet (I wasn’t actually sure if the fuzzy socks I wore belonged to me or to Will), and removed the pot from the scorching surface. I grabbed a mug and a tea bag from the cupboard that I’d grown to become quite familiar with over the past week, dunking it in a few times in hopes that the tea would steep. I got a spoon from the drawer beside me and pushed the bag against the edge of the mug.
Everything was moving at either turtle or lightning speed these days. I could blame myself for that. I made the decision to drive to Chicago in seconds, Will and I reconciled and proceeded to have sex multiple times within the span of an hour of arriving at his house, and now… I was getting unnecessarily worked up over making my tea steep faster. Why the hell was I so anxious all of a sudden?
I knew damn well where my anxiety had come from; I’d been procrastinating calling my mother for days. I’d promised to let her know about my plans for Christmas, but never gathered enough courage to pick up the phone. For all I knew, she’d been calling my apartment back in Indianapolis the whole time I’d been gone. But I knew calling her would come with a plethora of problems, the first one being having to break the news that I’d failed out of college. The second one took root in the fact that I was currently staying in a different apartment (different from the one my dad had been shelling out money towards), not to mention an entirely different state, and with Will. And the third… well, the third problem was that Will and I were dating now, so I wasn’t sure if Christmas was even on the table.
Of course, Will had been pushing me to call Mom all week, claiming that she would probably understand my multi-layered problems to an extent, but I knew (and told Will so) that our mothers were very different people, and that she wouldn’t understand. Not on the level that Joyce probably would, anyway. I checked the wall clock, reading 6:24pm. Will was due to come home around 6:30, which was when the two of us had planned to start packing our things to return to Hawkins. And that probably meant Will would bug me about calling my mom again, so… time to bite the bullet.
I headed into Will’s– our, I was still getting used to saying it– room, and sat down on the edge of the bed, glancing over at the nightstand. There it was. The Phone™. The phone that Will used when he– no. We were fine now. I was quite literally living with Will at the moment. Everything was great. So why did my heart pang with sadness every time I looked in the direction of Will’s phone? I decided I couldn’t think about this, not right now. I leaned over to pick up the phone, placing it next to me on the bed and dialing my parents’ phone number.
The line picked up within two rings. Classic.
“Wheeler residence, this is Karen!” I heard my mom say in the her usual cheerful tone, and I sucked in a breath.
“Hey, Mom,” I eventually exhaled, my shaky fingertips finding the cord on impulse and fiddling with the spirals.
“Michael? Is that you?” she sounded surprised. Shocked, even.
My heart sank with guilt. “Yeah. Yeah, it’s me.”
“Gosh, honey, I haven’t heard from you in so long!”
“I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be, I know you’re busy. How are you?” How was I? That was a simple question with a very complicated answer. I’d been doing better than I had in the past year and a half, and it was all because Will loved me. But I couldn’t tell her that. Not over the phone.
“Good, I’m good,” I kept it vague, “I just wanted to check in, let you know that I’m still alive and all.” After driving drunk across state lines and having a near-death experience involving a tractor trailer and "Should I Stay or Should I Go," by The Clash.
“Well, that's a relief! I’ve been— we’ve all been worried about you.” Meaning… she was worried about me. I wished she didn’t feel the need to give me hope that my dad might actually care about my well-being. “Are you doing alright in school?”
“That’s something I wanted to talk about over… over Christmas, if you’ll still have me,” I replied, my voice trembling a little too much for my liking. Too emotional.
“Of course!” Mom told me, and I bit my lip to prevent it from quivering. “Michael, you are always welcome back home. I thought you knew that.”
“No, I know,” I shook my head, gripping the phone tighter. “Just… it’s a long story. But I was also wondering if I could bring a guest this year?” There. I said it. Kind of.
“A guest?” I could hear the excitement creep into her voice, and I shut my eyes tightly. “Things must be going really well if you’re coming home with a girlfriend!” Girlfriend. Girlfriend. Girlfriend. Fuck.
“… Haha, yeah, it’s going great,” I suddenly wanted this conversation to be over and done with so I could let the guilt eat me alive in peace. “Uh, so, I’ll see you on…” I trailed off.
“You can come home as early as you want and stay for as long as you need,” she told me. “Believe it or not, we actually miss you around here. It’s… quiet.”
“Thanks, Mom,” I said. “I miss you too. So… is tomorrow okay? Me and…” Fuck, I forgot it was Will I was bringing home with me. Think fast, Wheeler– “We wanted to make the drive a little earlier before the real holiday traffic hits.”
“Whatever works best for you, hon! I’ve gotta head to book club, but please tell Mystery Girl that we can’t wait to meet her!” Right. Mystery Girl. Mystery Will. Jesus Christ, this was going to end horribly, wasn’t it?
“Okay…! See you soon, then. Love you.”
“I love you too, Michael,” Mom said softly, and I knew that she really meant it.
“Bye.”
“Was that who I think it was?” I heard from behind me, and I turned to see Will standing in the doorway with two cups of coffee in his hands. Bless him. I set the phone back on the surface of the nightstand and shifted over a bit, patting the space next to me. Will smiled, taking a few steps to cross the room and set the coffees down next to the phone. He turned to me and held my face in his hands, his thumbs running against my cheekbones. I cast my gaze off to the side as I muttered, “If you mean my mother, then… yeah.”
Will sat next to me then, a lighthearted laugh leaving his gorgeous mouth. I felt a blush rise to my cheeks. His laugh. His fucking laugh. How was I supposed to function when he laughed like that? And how the hell did I go so long without it? “Really?” he teased. “You’re not messing with me? You actually took my suggestion, for once?”
I smirked, reaching up to brush a piece of overgrown hair out of my boyfriend’s eyes. “Don’t let it get to your head, Byers. I called her and told her we’re coming for Christmas.”
Will’s eyes went wide at that. “Wait, you talked about me?”
“Well, no,” I admitted. “I wanted to.” I reached out to hold Will’s hand in a feeble attempt to convince him that I wasn’t being a coward, that I was just… fucking terrified of the idea of coming out to my parents. “Believe me, love, I wanted to. But… I couldn’t. I just told her I was bringing someone home.” I looked down at the ground, unable to bring myself to look at Will.
“I totally understand, it’s a big step!” he exclaimed, bringing a hand up to my jaw and lifting my face up so our eyes met. “C’mere.”
Will wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me close, and I let out a deep sigh as I leaned into his touch, bending my torso at a strange angle in order for my head to meet his shoulder; uncomfortable, but did the job. “It’s going to work out,” he reassured me. “Whatever happens, I’ll be here.”
“To pick up the pieces after everything goes to shit,” I said under my breath, and I felt Will’s hand begin to rub slow circles up and down my back.
“Don’t think like that, baby. You’re gonna be okay. We’re gonna be okay.”
“I don’t deserve you, Will,” I sighed, and I felt the low rumble of Will’s voice in his chest as he disagreed. This had become a common occurrence throughout the past week: I’d tell him that I didn’t deserve him, and he’d remind me–
“Yes, you do.”
“God,” I rubbed my palms across my face in frustration, “What’s gonna happen when they open the door and see us together? What are they gonna think? Or what if I… I don’t know, chicken out and make up some elaborate lie like… trying to bring back our Chrismukkah tradition or some shit?”
“You wouldn’t be wrong. I’ve kinda missed Chrismukkah,” Will chuckled. I silently envied his optimism. I wished it was that easy.
“Me, too.”
Will grabbed my hand then, interlacing our fingers, and it suddenly felt like the world wasn’t going to implode. “We’ll have to make up for lost time.”
I nodded, gulping far too loudly. “Yeah.”
A beat of silence followed, and my eyes trailed up from our joined hands to his lips. His lips that were saying all the right things. The lips that were actively talking me off the ledge. The lips that I wanted to kiss right off his perfect face.
“Hey, Will?”
“Yeah, Mike?”
“Kiss me?”
And he did. He did kiss me. In an instant, all of my worries floated into the recesses of my mind to be dealt with later. I busied myself with the feeling of Will’s lips coaxing my mouth open, falling down onto the mattress, and letting my boyfriend hold me, take me apart, and put me back together, piece by piece.

PLS as a new stars enjoyer i really wanna know whos who in this 🥹🥹 i kill for family dynamics 🤲🤲
https://www.tumblr.com/39oa/744137614807924736/the-stars-are-like-this-is-39-yo-joe-pavelski
hi anon!!! of course i would be MORE than happy to explain and in fact am about to egregiously overexplain so apologies in advance for that >__< welcome 2 starsblr pls enjoy your stay!!! 💚💚💚
"pavs and sons" → this is our top line that consists of jason robertson (21 / "robo"), roope hintz (24 / some call him "roop", his finnish nickname is "hine"), and joe pavelski (16 / "pavs"). pavs spent over a decade in san jose and was the sharks' captain during essentially their twilight years, and he came to dallas intending to retire (which is likely to happen at the end of this year tbh) but instead revitalized a distinct second phase of his career after being placed on a line with 2124 in 2020-21, unexpectedly becoming stalwart producers for a struggling dallas stars offense (2 words: rick bowness) — robo was only in his first year with the stars and roope's career was not that much older, hence the nickname pavs and sons; although pavs is only an alternate captain because the stars already have a very established, homegrown captain, he is basically treated as our second captain thanks to his age and the vast influence he has over both our young players & the locker room as a whole :') one of his nicknames is also captain america from representing team usa on the intl stage LOL.
rest below the cut:
raising johnny -> our team's ACTUAL baby is 2003-born wyatt johnston (53 / "johnny" but sometimes we use "wyjo" lol), who was in the ohl before the 2022-23 season but managed to impress during training camp and basically forced his way onto the roster (without getting too much into it, 18-19 y/o rookies can play 9 games with the big club before burning a year off their elc, so being from the ohl at his age his only options were basically Be In The NHL Permanently or go back to ontario.) because "HE (WAS) ONLY 19!!!" and there was some uncertainty about whether he'd stay up, pavelski invited him to live at his place with his wife and teenaged-son, and now a second year into his career wyatt is STILL with them because he loves it there so much lol. the stars frequently joke about pavs being his dad/landlord, and we've gotten a ton of fun content like these quest for the stanley cup clips and other interview moments like this, this, and this.
fostering stank(s) -> logan stankoven (11 / "stank" though you will also see "stanks") is our other baby and a very recent addition to our nhl roster; he's from the same draft class as johnny, but spent last season in the whl and therefore was eligible to go to the ahl this year, where he's been cooking up a storm for half the szn. it was pretty inevitable that he'd come up at SOME point, but the perfect opportunity arrived after one of our forwards got injured and he was slotted in on short notice. like johnny, he has basically forced his way onto the team permanently by immediately performing to (and well-beyond) standard :') the fun part is that he stayed with johnny at pavs's house when he first came to dallas, though he's since moved out and found his own place... nevertheless, this was still very sweet because logan & wyatt have GENUINE history from knowing each other half their lives & winning gold for u18 team canada in 2021, and have since picked their immediate chemistry right back up on the stars's 3rd line together. (more on this later!!!)
resident glueguy tydel + otter's son -> u know how every team needs its emotional support 4th liner who is at constant threat of being dumped at trade deadline? ty dellandrea (10 / "delly" but we like "tydel" as well) is our 13oa pick who never really panned out as expected, but he's still crucial to the overall health of the locker room and beloved by many. as a small piece of the Cycle Of Mentorship that the stars subscribe to, pavs is known for basically being a deflection master and a menace in front of the net and has passed on this propensity to a lot of younger stars by doing targeted practice sessions with them, including tydel. anyway delly's lore in general is just INSANEEE because he's at the center of the stars' social fabric in a lot of ways. happily third-wheels along with the wags, gets along with the 279195 canadian slagline who mostly exist outside of any family narratives, is Publicly Liked By Roope which is kind of weird because outside of cellys roop practices jane austen levels of finnish repression, imprinted on johnny hard last year (JOINED HIM ON PAVELSKI FAMILY NIGHTS) (from this devastating webweave), has SOOO much ahl history with otter to the point that otter's baby brother sees ty as part of the family — this is also where otter saying that he and his girlfriend saw ty as their son when he stayed at their apartment during training camp comes from. which is genuinely like Absurd Things to say because jake oettinger (29 / "otter") (as a completely random aside, please look at this gifset of harls wearing otter's shirt) is ONLY 2 YEARS OLDER THAN DELLY. LIKE THE FUCK D'YOU MEAN YOUR SON???
i'm normal. okay
jbenn / "daddy" line dads -> so the stars' real captain is jamie benn (14 / multiple nicknames but "chubbs" is a signature), whoooo is a quite the contentious figure amongst stars fans but as a 2007 draftee is very much a homegrown player and still quite important to the organization. i'm ngl, stars rpf is a VERY small space nowadays in hockey fandom, but ~back in the day~ he and tyler seguin were one of The Big Ships before slowly fading as both fandom figures & stars of the team thanks to age and injury and [waves hand vaguely]. anyway while the top line on the stars has remained *mostly* set since robo was called up, the 2nd & 3rd lines still experience a decent amount of reshuffling, so wyatt is kind of jamie's fixed line son atp but they also played with tydel before we 1:1 swapped some russians and evgenii dadonov (63 / the "DADDY" in question) came in and replaced delly. so now we've had multiple "benn and sons" lines (jamie + wyatt/delly, now jamie + wyatt/logan ❗️), plus essentially a "wyatt and dads" line (wyatt + jamie/daddy) lmfao.
wedge raising harls -> robo's emotional support backup goalie is scott wedgewood (41 / "wedge" or "wedgie"), who as far as backup goalies go is like shockingly well-integrated into the stars' locker room. the piece of lore that inspired this WHOLE post is that taylor dropped an article on how wedge claimed to basically be RAISING HARLS WITH HIS (recently-married!) WIFE...??? which is just. thomas harley (55 / "harls") is one of our resident baby d-men and was in and out of the ahl for a while but has been Officially with the stars since last years' playoffs... he's a very like, self-assured but kind of introverted, Beyond-His-Years type who literally has the voice of a 50 y/o, so it's both DEVASTATING and hilarious 2 me that wedge is like "oh, this 22 y/o kid likes to show up to my house every day and me and my wife are teaching him how to cook and he keeps facetiming me to ask random questions about his bills." LIKE OH... OKAY THEN ;___;
& last but not least: the ultimate Mini Family on this team that i didn't mention in my orig post is actually the finnish mafia — see robo constantly joking about them being brothers and loving each other lol. finnmaf currently includes four players (roope, miro, esa, jani... rip kivo 😔), and they kind of help split the stars' locker room into several groups including the finns, the ontario guys, robo's goaliefucker / Nerd_Collector ensemble, and... well honestly the cliques overlap a lot (which is why our locker room is so healthy!!!) but you get the idea.
there is soooo much other lore i could get into that isn't really related to dad/son/brother narratives but i feel like this is enough of an infodump so i'll stop here for now. in general the way the stars are constructed makes it really clear why they all see one another as family and why there is such a strong & positive & sustainable sense of personal leadership that permeates the locker room... benn handles Official captain duties while pavs uses his experience not to usurp him but simply to further support him in understated areas of mentorship/leadership, and our top line consists of 3 Very unassuming & responsible player archetypes which crucially trickles down to all the other lines. so while many teams have their Old Guys (who are often on a noticeable decline) and Kid Lines, the stars are cool because we've been successful at integrating young players with very established veterans and having them feed off of each other without sacrificing their development or "anchoring" any young talent unnecessarily; benn is really not the player he used to be but he's still been great with wyatt over the past 2 years. and pavs IS a total anomaly, so it's kind of insane & surreal that a guy in his late 30s can perform at such a high level while also taking it upon himself to prepare so many of our young guys to be the present & future of our team *__*
tl;dr: also i just remembered that the amazing @starscelly has a preexisting primer from last year so feel free to check that out too :') (the primary differences are basically that we replaced domi for duchene and recently picked up chris tanev haha)

posting my thoughts from the night of the episode
THAT. WAS. A. PREMIERE.
My Overall Idea: The tone felt really appropriate for everything going on within the different storylines.
The tonal shift for different scenes doesn't feel jarring & LS really knows how to lean in, when they should, to things that are just ridiculous (in the best way)! Marjan vs Paul shenanigans are comedic and the music was 1 of the best choices for these montages. Every time Carlos stepped onto the scene was amazing & (again) that Ranger music was the best pick & precursor to his arc.
This felt like a pitch for a Ranger spin-off in a lot of ways and the pacing/development was very good-Don't know what to make of the new partner, but he felt very Texan immediately, so that's fitting for the entire Gabriel storyline they're going for (he's very wishy-washy atm; he's insulting and very quickly complimentary to Carlos AND THEN THERE'S THE FACT THAT HE WORKED WITH GABRIEL!
Mateo/Nancy was perfect-(that little jealous moment about Marjan & Mateo over-clarifying immediately) (other thing(s): Paul/Nancy "The Big Tortoise" "not sure if I like "The Big Tortoise")
Judd feels lost (in a good way)-My biggest concern with Grace being gone was that Judd would be okay (haha); it wouldn't be believable for him to be. He feels completely disconnected from the other characters except Wyatt and it is wonderful. The monologue and long explanation on Grace was nice and I was kind of concerned it would be extremely brushed over. (other thing(s): his look when Owen is talking abt Marjan vs Paul has a hint of dreaming it could be HIM or thinking how he wishes he could just ask to come back (and NOT start at beginner level)
Wyatt felt like he's found his place-The scene was cute when Judd revealed his new home to him. That Carlos-Wyatt scene (and a callback to TK) was a nice touch. The advice to Judd even felt appropriate and he said exactly what I was thinking (Judd, it's your pride and nothing else).
Owen is afraid of even more change and he is in a grey-state-It is very appropriate and he almost feels submissive as a character, very detached from his leadership abilities.
TK...poor bby TK-He is eager to be in this husbands era, but there is a stark difference to him from before; obviously in the last scene, the excitement is offset by the lonliness, but there's an undertone in every scene leading up to it. In LS paralleling fashion, he's departed from his true self (like Owen...), though he's not in that grey-state; he's making active decisions, unlike his dad and he's displayed in the leadership role of refereeing his friends. But there's a passivity in the same breath. (idk if this will make sense but,) from the refereeing without having to bet on either side to excitedly watching the outcome of Carlos' case on tv before making no protest to his work habits, there's a resignation to the main role he's been put in t/o the show, and he's lost his purpose a bit (ahem carlos), while still maintaining key aspects to how we know him in seasons prior. Right now, he's passive and yet is actively taking charge; he's ready for them to be husbands, but is also supportive and is BEING a husband by being the rock for Carlos to ease him into peace while he's grieving.
I did not expect Carlos' storyline to hurt so much-You could feel it in every scene he was in, leading up to the last. It being a year in the future really puts it in perspective (because how long he's been in this state and still having no answers). TK assuring him his dad believed in him felt like a natural response for any point after losing someone, but made me think TK has witnessed A LOT before we got to that last scene.

BIOGRAPHY.
born and raised in kitty hawk, north carolina. jett is the oldest of two, he always loved his younger sister but they were known to fight like rabid raccoons. his father and mother owned a seafood market that they diligently ran together and both kids would help with after school.
he was a hyperactive child that later grew to be a rebel without a cause ( literally without a cause, he had a good life ). a class clown and an adrenaline junkie, with a habit of trouble making. his parents tried many ways to tire him out and keep him occupied so it would deter him from doing stupid stuff, getting into fights, or later in life getting arrested or killed.
there were many trials and errors but eventually jett found his solace in surfing and skateboarding, along with other outdoor activities. he became a professional surfer when he was sixteen and started going around the world for competitions and such. he eventually got his g. e. d. so he didn't have to worry about school anymore. when he wasn't surfing he was doing things with extreme sports and x-games, skateboarding, biking, dirt bike racing, etc. anything for the thrill.
his career started to slow down in his late twenties and he didn't mind because it gave him freedom to travel on his own accord and chase the monster waves, meet new people, etc. it was how he ended up driving his van ( affectionately named petunia ) right into huntsville in 2021.
it's been an adjustment for sure but he's found ways to stay entertained. he still skateboards, works at o'connor's outdoors, and tries to keep himself occupied. most nights he can be found sleeping in petunia outside the commune or in someone else's bed. last year he ended up in a casual relationship that resulted a son several months later. ever since he was born he's been trying to figure out how to grow up, at least a little bit, and be more responsible to not only make her trust jett to be alone with his son but also to be a good dad in general. only time will tell if he gets it right.
QUICK CONNECTIONS.
people who knew him before
friends, drinking/party buddies
mother of his son
little sister
hookups/fwb
co-workers
people he does stupid stuff with
best friend
HEADCANONS.
has a volkswagen van named petunia that has a bed and some amenities in that he is used to living in but still is part of the commune and contributes to that community
has commitment issues mainly due to the fact that he's used to getting dumped for his lifestyle and has grown to just stop trying long before he got to huntsville
more to come

Not Again (Sequel to Getting Her Back)
- Chapter 3
Tumblr media
Middle August, 2018
Drew was on edge with these random unknown numbers texting him threatening his daughter. Quinn was due to start at her new school in two weeks, this person knows where she lives and knows Drew has taken her on the road with him, how will she be safe at school? He kept trying to reassure himself that unless they were on her pickup form, no one could take her from there without permission from him. But who was sending these messages and why? Was it related to what happened 7 months ago? Was it someone who knew he went into the mansion and stole the goods for Barclay? Or was it just someone close to him playing a cruel joke? All of this uncertainty was driving up Drew's anxiety, but he had to focus he had an Intercontinental Championship match against Bray Wyatt this Sunday at Summerslam and he was determined to win, he deserved to win after everything that had happened.
"So if you win that title, does that mean you'll be on the road more?" Quinn asked her dad as he was warming up for his match on the last Raw before Summerslam. "It might yeah, but don't worry I'll still be home at least two days a week. I know that doesn't seem like a lot but I want to get started off on the right foot and show them I'm champion material. I don't want to be released again" Drew said. "Well, if I'm on break for school can I come with you?" Quinn asked, "Of course! Have your nerves calmed any about starting school a couple weeks?" he asked, "A little bit, they have some clubs I'd like to join, mainly the Art Guild" she answered with a smile, "See now that's the spirit" Drew said as he got up from his warm up and came to sit down next to her. "Listen, I know we've been through a lot this year, we've been through a lot of trauma, but getting back to normalcy is one of the best things you can do. I've got wrestling and you've got school and friends to look forward too. It will take some time to work through everything but I believe in you, you're a brave warrior like me" he said, Quinn turned and gave her dad a hug "I know dad, I love you" she said, "I love you sweetheart" as he returned the hug.
Summerslam 2018
Drew still hadn't received any new unknown texts and he was hoping at this point it was all behind him. While Drew was warming up, he heard a knock at his locker room door, "Who is it?" he asked "An old friend, may I come in?" the voice said, Drew instantly recognized the voice and his suspicions were confirmed when Jinder Mahal walked through the door "What's up bro?" Jinder asked as he went over to Drew and gave him a hug "Nothing much man, I heard you were coming back, didn't realize it was this soon!" Drew said happily. "Yeah my debut is in a few weeks, I'm looking forward to being back" Jinder said smiling. About that time, Quinn walked through the door, having been down at catering getting some lunch "Quinn, you remember Jinder don't you?" Drew asked "Yeah I do! Hey Jinder!" Quinn ran over and gave him a hug, "Oh my goodness, this can't be Quinn! She's grown too much!" Jinder said, astonished "It's me! I'm 13 now" she said "No way, that's not possible, you were just 8 years old when I saw you last." Jinder said. "She's growing up so fast bro, time needs to slow down just a little bit" Drew said "Yes it does, how've you two been? You should be starting school soon right?" Jinder asked, pointing to Quinn. "Yep I'm going into the 8th grade, starting at a new school and everything" she said "Yeah we moved to Tennessee earlier this year and found her a smaller school to go, it will be nice" Drew said, "That's awesome, hey Drew did you hear what happened to Heath by chance?" Jinder asked, "No I didn't, what's up?" Drew asked, confused. "Apparently he was released a couple months before you came back, they were making room for our debuts and they weren't using Heath at all so they released him. Not long after his wife left and took their kids because he wouldn't go work in the independents." Jinder explained, "That's a shame, he's a really good friend, I don't know why he hasn't reached out, I could probably help him get out of that funk and give him some good contacts in the independents." Drew said, "Well hopefully he'll come around and start fixing things, he's just got to work his way back up like we did. Well I know you're busy getting ready for your match so I'll see you around, you take care! Jinder said as he gave Drew another hug, "Take care Jinder'' Drew said. "Well that was a nice trip down memory lane, I remember Heath too, that was your 3MB days when you were a Scottish rockstar wannabe" Quinn said laughing, "I don't know what your laughing at because those were some fun times for me" Drew said amused. "You looked like a dork wearing a bandana and bedazzled wrestling pants" Quinn said, still laughing. Drew just looked at her with a sarcastic face. "I've got to get ready for my match, eat your lunch, and stay out of trouble" he said as he left the locker room. Drew's match was about an hour into the show, he ended up winning the IC title off of Bray Wyatt, and then went backstage for his interviews. Once he was done, he retrieved Quinn and his wrestling bags from the locker room and they headed for the hotel, thankfully Raw was in the same city as Summerslam so they wouldn't have to travel that night. Quinn was lying in bed reading a book on her IPad while Drew was browsing his phone on the sofa while watching TV. Drew was checking messages when he saw the dreaded unknown number again, he gulped as his heart rate started climbing fast. He opened it and Drew's heart sunk into his stomach, it was a picture of Quinn in his locker room alone, the caption read "It could have been easy to take her right now with you so close yet so far away".
