VISIT OF A HERO !blue lock
kunigami rensuke x gn! reader
notes // i watched the bllk anime and i‘m still having war flashbacks of the manga, which i read probably a year ago?? i don’t know and i don’t care because this was a good decision. going back to my multifandom blog origins LMAO so don’t be surprised if y‘all be getting blue lock content hehe and ofc kunigami has the honor <33 also, this was not proofread, it's literally a bainrot/word vomit so yeah- also, first work in the new year yay!!
wc // 652
tags // @stellumi , @keqism , @venexus for you my darlings <3
You knew Kunigami was in this… project that was announced days ago. Whole Japan was in turmoil, and there were whispers. About those who had already left- those who had already lost. There was nothing but tears and ashes of them left, their future career destroyed for just one striker. 
Oh how you hoped and prayed that this one striker was him, your hero, soon everyone’s hero. He deserved it, so long he had worked hard, training hard while sweat was running down his face, muscle aches paining him- he deserves it. He deserves being in Blue Lock, in this insane project, after all it meant he was one of the chosen ones, one of those many, many soccer players who were just better. 
You knew Kunigami deserved this, but you still worried. After all, you didn’t know what exactly happened there, if he got enough breaks, enough time to rest. You worried, you worried he would lose himself but the moment your mind started spiraling, you chided yourself, believing in Kunigami, believing in his strength as human and as a striker. 
It was unknown to you, when he would return, and if he ever would. If he would come out at the top, he would travel to train more, he wouldn’t come back to you. You knew this, you knew this the moment Kunigami became your boyfriend. He was a nice guy, of course, but he was also an egoist. How could he not be, as a striker? How often he had to cancel your dates, because the training was timed longer, because he wanted to run more, to shoot more goals, to be better. And everytime it hurt, deep in your chest, a stinging pain but you were also filled with pride. Kunigami has always given his best and he was yours. Yours alone to hug, to kiss, to love- he was yours and you were his. And even if it hurt, being left behind while he went to train, while he went to this insane project, you were so proud of him, you were so proud it hurt. It hurts to love him and maybe this was exactly why you did. 
You knew Kunigami was selfish, after all he wanted to be the best and have you by his side, regardless how he neglected you for his training. You could never be angry at him, not for this reason, not when he was so nice, so loving, so- not when he was yours, even if he gave his heart to soccer long ago. 
You knew Kunigami was an egoist, even if it was hidden, hidden behind his handsome face and a nice character. And so you were surprised, when you opened the door, with him greeting you with a blinding smile on his face. Before you could even ask him what he was doing here, he had your face in his calloused hands, taking you in, with love clear in his eyes. 
“I striked some goals in matches against other teams. They give points you know, gift points. Food, a phone or a day off. And I needed to see you.” Need. He needed to visit you, he wanted to hold you again, to kiss you, to keep you close, even for just one day. He was selfish, egoistic, greedy, always has been. He wanted you and he wanted to be Japan’s striker, he wanted to be the best striker, he wanted to win, always, since he was young. But he will only do so with you by his side. 
You knew Kunigami was a hero, because strikers have always been hero in his eyes. And so he left you, after one of the best days in your life, left to train, to be selfish, to be egoistic again. He left to be a hero, for you and for the whole world. 
And you would wait for him, always.

best friend’s brother ── S. ITOSHI
synopsis: your long time crush who just so happens to be your best friend's brother just came back from college and you're wondering if things should just be better off unsaid genre: fluff with crack, being rin's only proclaimed friend, typical best friend's brother cliche warnings: cursing, sae might be a bit ooc same with rin, blue lock doesn't exist in this. so sae is just a university soccer player or however yall call that wc: 2.3k a/n: random wip with a trope i only use if the said siblings have a brother complex that i obviously got too carried away with. i think i could explore more into this. lmk if u guys want a part two or something. likes, reblogs and comments are always appreciated!
cupid masterlist | next
Tumblr media
rin doesn’t understand your crush on his older brother, sae
in fact, it agitates him. so much that you, his best friend, out of all people, “betrayed him like that” (as what rin likes to claim)
“you need to stop that” rin grumbles, eyes boring holes at the side of your head as you have a stupid grin on your face
“stop what?”
“that stupid face you make when sae is around” 
you let out a small gasp, a look of disbelief all over your face. “i do not make a face!”
rin rolls his eyes, “you just did. it’s annoying”
“only annoying to you because it’s sae” you snicker, nudging your shoulder with his. 
it has always been like this between you and the infamous itoshi brothers. rin being slightly jealous when your attention is at sae's instead of him. 
maybe rin is scared that sae would probably take you away from him, as corny as it is. rin treasures you a lot as you are, if not, his only “close” friend that he considers
almost as if the universe was against rin, his infamous brother walks in the room
"mom wants you to defrost the chicken" sae says, not even bothering to look up from his phone. rin grunts, his way of saying that he got the memo
but of course, much to rin's inner protests that you’d just sit there and keep quiet, you just had to greet sae
"hey sae" you chirp, waving shyly at the older male
to your surprise, sae actually looks up for once from his phone and meets your eye. he's not really surprised that you're at their house.. again... for what seems like the nth time... to sae, you're probably at their house more than he is
"oh, hello" sae nods his head up, a simple gesture but enough to send your heart flying
when sae disappears from your line of sight, you turn to rin who had his signature scowling face looking right back at you
"he said hello to me!!" you gush, smacking rin's arm multiple times. even biting his shoulder to control your excitement. 
"that's because you greeted him, dumbass" rin smacks your face with a nearby throw pillow, sending you back to the couch.
"did you have to hit me?!" you complain, laying still with the pillow still at your face. you barely hear rin murmur, "you deserve it" before smacking him in return
"don't you have a chicken to defrost?!" 
Tumblr media
“thank you for having me over, mrs. itoshi, it’s been a while since i stayed over for dinner” you smile at the woman beside you, “but please, the least i could i do is wash the dishes” 
mrs. itoshi waves you off with a smile, “don’t be ridiculous, dear. you’re the guest here besides i have two boys who can do it for me as well” she motions behind her, pertaining to both sae and rin washing and drying off the dishes behind her. which in all honesty, was a sight to see.
“hurry up, jackass” sae nags rin, who was in charge of washing the dishes
“then switch places with me, bitch” rin barks back, sending daggers through his eyes
mrs. itoshi smiles apologetically at you, “sorry for the boys. you know how they are sometimes” she shakes her head before calmly lecturing the two boys about cursing each other.
the pair finish up the dishes and everything from the kitchen to the dining room is clean, mr. and mrs. itoshi already went up to their room while you and the brothers are currently in the living room, the tv serving its purpose as background noise as everyone was on their phones.
“ah shit, it’s late” you cursed, realizing the clock was almost at 11 o’clock.
“you dumbass, i’ll walk you home” rin says, getting up from the couch. you also started to gather your things so you could finally go home before sae intervenes. 
“i can drive you home” sae stands up, looking between you and his brother.
there was a moment of silence after he said that. rin looking like his eyes were about to pop from his sockets, you looking equally as shocked as rin, and sae who has his usual resting bitch face
“i’m heading over to the convenience store anyway, if you’re that wary of me” sae shrugs, directing the last sentence to rin who now has a dirty look on his face
rin looks at you for your decision. technically, this wasn’t up for their debate. so, do you choose rin, your friend, or sae, your long time crush who just so happens to be rin’s older brother. you know it to your bones that if you choose sae right now, rin might take it negatively and probably ignore you for a while but when will you ever have this kind of opportunity again? 
somehow rin already knew what your answer was. he knew that no matter how hard he protests about you liking his brother, there was nothing he could do. probably to ban you from coming over if sae’s home at least
“why won’t you two drop me off instead?” you suggest, trying to win the best of both worlds. sae could drop you off, rin is also with him and they could eventually bond over this and get themselves something at the convenience store. hitting two birds with one stone right? instead you were met with gagging sounds from the pair
“.. ew” sae makes a disgusted face
“and be alone with him?!” rin almost sounded like he was offended with your suggestion (he was)
you rolled your eyes at how dramatic the two were. 
“fine. i’m going with sae then” you deadpan, poking your tongue out at rin who was beginning to sulk. sae whistles lowly at your answer, grabbing the car keys just by the door and starts the car.
you walk past rin who didn’t even look at you with yes, you guessed it, another scowl on his face. 
“text me when you get home safe at least” he clicks his tongue in annoyance but you know he means well
you laugh, pushing his shoulders lightly. “i owe you for this” you wink, pointing towards the direction where sae was at while wiggling your eyebrows.
rin makes a face and shoos you out of their house.
with that, you rushed towards the black audi rs7 waiting by the driveway. sat at the driver’s seat was no other than sae itoshi. who is leaning next to the window with his free hand tapping random beats at the bottom of the steering wheel.
the sound of the passenger car opening and closing while you got inside broke his trance.
“good to go?” sae merely asks, but it made you jump. you managed to squeak out a small “yes” before he puts the car in reverse. you tried so hard to conceal your squeal when sae unexpectedly had his arm on the back of your headrest as he backs out of their driveway. you steal a glance when he was busy trying not to bump into their other cars.
the way his jaw clenches when he’s concentrating. the way his eyebrows were furrowed as he focuses. the way—
“take a picture, it’d last longer” sae says smugly, not even sparing you a look. you nearly choke on your own spit as that simple sentence sends you into a coughing spree.
“the fuck? you okay?” sae mused, taking a quick look at your slouched figure at the passenger seat as you try to catch your breath. 
“i’m fine” you let out, not daring to make another sound. 
the car falls silent, much to your relief. you take this opportunity to think about about how you managed to snag an opportunity of a lifetime to be alone with sae. your biggest crush. the sae itoshi who is probably, if not the most famous soccer player at your local college
the silence is cut short when sae suddenly connects his phone to the speakers and starts blasting songs from his playlist.
“the weekend? really sae?” you raised a brow, totally not digging his music taste. 
“what about it?”
“nothing. i thought you could do better” you shrug, slumping back to your seat as after hours plays in the background
“get out of the car then” sae threatens but you know he was joking. there was a distinctive tone he uses when he was actually being bitchy or just making a sarcastic remark or as he likes to call em, a “joke”
“okay, pull over”
your response sent sae laughing which was honestly, a rare sight to see. you two shared the same dry humor after all. only you could reply with something witty and not be offended when he starts talking shit.
that’s when you noticed that he was taking another route to your house.
“this isn’t the street to my house..” you say, a bit worried. because one, it was reaching 11:30. second, it was a school night. third, your mom is probably still awake, waiting for your ass to come home from the itoshi’s.
“i know”
you look at him in disbelief, eyes wide and all. sae only gives you his signature half smile.
“i’m just taking a detour to the convenience store, relax” 
“but my mom is gonna kill me that i got home so late” you try to reason but sae doesn’t listen. he shrugs and continues to drive at the nearby 7/11 a few blocks from your place. 
after what feels like an eternity, you two arrive at the convenience store.
“you coming?” sae unbuckles his seatbelt and turns to you. you shake your head no as you were busy to come up with a bullshit excuse to tell your mom on why you’re late
“okay, i’ll be quick” with that, sae closes the door and goes inside to buy his stuff. much like a man of his word, he was in fact quick with his little convenience store run. he came back holding a plastic bag and a lollipop in his mouth
“what’d you get?” you ask, taking a peek at the plastic. inside you notice some canned beers, some junk food and a muffin? 
“why did you buy a muffin at this hour?” you ask, trying not to let a giggle escape. sae eats muffins with beer?
“a little present for you mom” he casually says, his head turning both ways as he makes his way out of the 7/11 parking lot
he got a what for you mom?
“a present? what? why?” you blurt out. sae gives you a side glance before taking out the lollipop that was in his mouth.
“for bringing you home so late” 
sae has always been a man with little to no words. his replies are always so brief and concise that he leaves you no room to question him whatsoever
shocked by his actions, you sit there stunned and confused. your heart was beating faster than ever and you think you may or may not have just fallen for him a little bit harder
Tumblr media
sae parks the car just right in front of your house. it was already 12:03 in the morning and you were probably the most nervous you’ve ever been. sae does the courtesy of ringing your doorbell and waits for your mother to come out and unlock the gate.
you see your mother stomping her way at the front door, causing sae to snicker. even if this was entirely his fault for bringing you home so late.
“you really had the nerve to even come home at this hour you— sae? is that you?” your mom starts to nag but gets cut off when she notices someone familiar standing right next to you.
“hello, mrs. l/n” sae bows in front of your mother. to which the latter comes up and gives him a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
“sae it really is you! it’s been so long my dear! how have you been? when did you come back in town?” your mom starts asking him a bunch of questions all at once. 
did your mom’s anger really just disappear into mid air the moment she saw sae?
“i actually just got back earlier today, that’s why y/n here came home so late ‘cause we were celebrating back at home” sae sheepishly smiles, hands both resting behind his head.
it was actually weird for you to witness sae to be so.. polite? he usually has an attitude and has no problem treating even older people like shit. so it was actually surprising to see him be so chummy with anyone besides his mom of course, let alone your own mother
“oh and i got you this by the way” sae digs through the plastic bag and fishes out the muffin that he got at 7/11.
what a way to win your mom over, huh? 
“oh sae, you didn’t have to” your mom gushes, waving him off but you can see she was really touched by the thoughtfulness behind it. 
sae smiles a little before checking the time on his phone. “i’ll get going now mrs. l/n”
your mom agrees and apologizes for keeping him around longer than intended to which sae just shrugs and laughs it off, telling her that he doesn’t mind and that he actually wanted to personally visit her (which was obviously a blatant lie, but at least now you know how much of a smooth talker sae really is)
sae gets inside his car, ready to drive off but before he does. he rolls down his window
“i’ll see you again, y/n” he winks at you before giving your mom a knowing smile as she looks between the two of you.
you are flabbergasted at what he just did. “mom- it’s not what you think-” 
“drive safe, sae!” your mom waves goodbye as sae honks his horn before driving away to who knows where.
your mom watches as the car slowly disappears from your street before turning her attention back at you. 
“he’s such a sweet boy, no?” she comments as she smiles at the little muffin sae just gifted her. 
you don’t even know how to react with everything that just happened. cause you only had one question in mind.
what the fuck was that about?

pairing: bakugou katsuki x reader
word count: 2.5k
warnings: none
authors note: I wanna say im so sorry for lying to yall about that extra chapter KJDFFF😭😭 ALSO @chibiiichann I APOLOGIZE FOR SPAMMING YOU WHENEVER I REPLIED TO YOU💀 A DIFFERENT ACC WOULD POP UP BUT THE FIRST CHAPTER WAS AN INTRODUCTORY CHAPTER EXPLAINING THE OC'S CONDITION JFJDJD
Tumblr media
"HAHA! I GOTCHU NOW LOSER!" Y/N smashed the buttons on her controller, basically on the edge of her bed. A grunt was heard through her headphones, then a loud bang with laughing in the background. Y/N felt her stomach turn at the sound of this, feeling a little left out, but smiled nonetheless.
"HOW'D YOU EVEN DO THAT?!! YOU’RE DOING SOME HACKING MY GUY!" Denki yelled through the laughing in the background, hands pulling at his hair. He seriously couldn't believe it!
"I'm not! I just wanted to show Sero I'm way better at this game than you are. And turns out I am!" Y/N let out a loud laugh, falling backwards onto her pillow. After finding out that 'Tape Dispenser' went to her cousin’s school by hearing his voice in the back of Denki's room, she got to learn more about this Sero dude. She already knew this after their last game a few nights ago, but he was so chill. It was still insane for her to find out that her cousin and online friend went to the same hero school. The coincidences in this world. Y/N thought as she grinned.
"It's okay Kaminari, you still lasted a long time! But you did get brutally beat by Y/N at the end though..." Sero said, trying to raise Denki's low spirits, but only succeeded in making him more miserable. Rustling was heard through Y/N's headphones, making it obvious that there was movement happening.
"You don't understand Sero! THIS IS THE ONLY GAME I COULD FULLY BEAT THIS GIRL IN!" Denki shook Sero by the shoulders, quickly doing the action. Cackling was heard through the speakers while the girl wiped a tear from her eye. Sero laughed along, as he was pushed to the ground by Denki. His arms were crossed as he looked away, upset that Y/N managed to finally beat him in every game they played.
"It's okay Denki, not everyone can be as good as me!" Y/N exclaimed, getting up from her bed to start taping specific parts of her room. Kaminari continued to complain about his defeat to Sero, who only chuckled in response. As she finished taping the bottom of the walls, Y/N sat back on her bed, sighing in content.
"So, how are you? I'm doing terribly after being utterly destroyed by you, by the way." Said Kaminari, opening his water bottle and taking large gulps from it. Y/N felt her face light up as she remembered to tell Kaminari of her future activity.
"Bro, you won't believe this! So, basically, they're actually letting me paint my room! All by myself! How fricking cool is that?!" The girl laughed out loud, jumping on her bed in excitement. Kaminari's eyes widen, in surprise and slight fear, sitting up and taking in the new information.
"Wait, really? But isn't that like extremely dangerous? Cuz of the chemicals and what not??" He tried his best to keep his voice leveled, not noticing Sero look at him weirdly. That guy had no idea what was happening.
"Well, they said that they were gonna do something to the paint so it won't hurt me or anything, I don't know what, but-" Y/N was cut off by an extremely confused Sero. "Wait wait wait, hold on. I don't understand what's happening. How can paint harm you? Besides like...eating it. And what do you mean by 'finally getting to paint your room?’ Silence was the only answer he got. Sero gulped in embarrassment, thinking he asked a really personal question.
"Um, it's nothing du-" A loud 'shhhhhhh' was heard from Y/N, who let out a shaky breath. She never really told anyone, it's not like she could either way, being confined in the hospital room for a long time. She pushed a loose strand of her away from her face, preparing herself to tell Sero.
"Well, the reason is because I basically live in a hospital. I can't go outside, or have 'unpurified' air, as the doctors like to say, meaning my interactions with people and the outside world are extremely limited. That means anything that's not cleared of dust and germs, I guess, can be extremely harmful for me? As pathetic as it sounds, it could actually kill me, haha." It was quiet as Sero took in the information, a large wave of emotions crashing on him. A person shouldn't have to be locked in a room for the rest of their life. Especially someone who is such a sweet person like Y/N.
"I-I'm so sorry to hear that Y/N. If you don't mind me asking, how...how long have you been in the hospital?" The young girl answered with a quick 'Two years', and that's when Sero felt his stomach twist uncomfortably. Kaminari abruptly got up and headed towards his door.
"I'm gonna get something to eat, you want something dude?" Kaminari's voice was low and trembling. It didn't take a genius to see that the blonde haired boy needed some time alone. "No thanks." Kaminari let out a hum, quickly exiting his room and closing the door shut. Sero heard the loud sniffs that slowly faded away, as he hung his head down.
"Hey, you good Sero? That was probably a lot to take in, sorry." Sero shook his head, letting a sad smile adorn his face. "It's fine, really. I actually feel honored that you're comfortable telling me. Feels like we're getting closer, to be honest." He smiled happily, meaning every word he said. And Y/N knew that. "Ha, we are though!" The air was tense, despite the two teenagers being in different rooms.
Y/N went to clear her throat, but was interrupted when a light knock echoed throughout her room. "Someone there?" Sero asked, noticing her silence and hearing the very faint knocking.
"Yeah, um Sero, I'll call you guys later, my doctor wants to talk." Y/N quickly replied, seeing Receen open the door and walk in with his thin suit on. Sero let out an ok and they hang up. Y/N finally took in how the doctor looked, noticeable eye bags under his blue-grey eyes, from lack of sleep. His dark hair slightly tousled, probably from putting on the protective helmet that came with the suit, and a small smile on his welcoming face. And a large container of paint in his left hand. Her eyes immediately lit up.
"What’s up doc? I see you have something in your hand, can I see it closer?" The small girl asked, getting up and making a grabbing motion with her hands. Receen chuckled, lifting up the paint for Y/N to see. Even if he were to hand her the container, she wouldn't be able to hold. She was just too weak. Said girl let out a high pitch 'OOOO ' in excitement.
"I'm not sure if you wanted more, but we managed to get you your favorite color! This should be enough to paint the room, you can even put a second layer if you want." Receen walked over to where Y/N put all the equipment, opening the container of paint. And with a low grunt from him, the lid was opened. Y/N watched with amazement as the doctor poured the soft looking paint into a tray. She picked up a roller near her, and drowned the roller in paint, the white fluff getting covered in color.
The two began painting, Y/N's hand shaking every now and then. After painting half the room, they sat in silence, resting for a while. Receen seemed to be tense, though Y/N didn't seem to notice since she was too happy to speak. Receen let out a breath, breaking the silence, causing Y/N to look towards him.
"I didn't get to ask you how you were, did I Y/N? How are you?" Said girl let a beaming smile spread on her face, causing Receen to slightly squint his eyes from the intensity of her smile. "Honestly, I haven't felt this happy in a very long time! I actually still can't believe you guys really let me do this! Thank you so much!"
Receen gave her a small smile while rubbing the back of his neck. "It's not a problem, you could’ve asked sooner and gotten this done a long time ago. You've been here for two years, so please don't be afraid of asking for things!" At the mention of her time spent in the hospital, Y/N lowered her head, causing Receen to wince. Well, might as well tell her. The doctor cleared his throat and began to talk.
"Y/N, as you are aware, I, along with many other doctors and scientists, have been working hard for you to be able to go outside again. To see your family, hug them, be a normal kid again." There was a pause and that alone caught Y/N's attention. She looked up at him. "There is a way for you to finally do that, Y/N."
Shock evident on the girl's face, she abruptly stood up and faced the doctor. There was absolutely no way anyone could have found a cure for someone like her. Someone who had an incurable sickness. Someone who was too sick, to even have medicine. He's lying. Y/N narrowed her eyes at the grown man sitting in front of her.
"With all due respect Doctor, I highly doubt that ​​that's possible. Cuz, y'know? I basically have an incurable disease? I mean, like, even if you did manage to find a way for me to leave this place, how do you even know it's gonna work? I don't think you've tried this medicine since no one in recorded hospital documents in the past have had people like that checked in before-"
"How do you even know that?"
"-so how do you truly know it'll work?" Y/N quickly finished, completely ignoring his statement. Receen sighed, scratching his head. "We live in a world where quirks exist. Would you believe me if I told you centuries ago that the human race would evolve to have super powers? It's kind of like that, but not really." Y/N eyed him suspiciously. He's avoiding the question.
Receen looked straight at the girl standing in front of him. He felt slightly intimidated by her piercing gaze. He quickly looked away and got up, towering over Y/N's small frame. Then he smiled. "Y/N, you are a very sweet girl, no doubt about it. I know how much you want to get out of here, and I want to help you. My team has created this almost perfect pill, especially suited for your sickness. I know you're very cautious, just like your mother, but I can only reassure you, that these are your ticket out of here." He pulled out the bottle from his protective suit, shaking it in front of [Y/N].
Her eyes widened as she restrained herself from reaching out and snatching the bottle. Her eyes slightly narrowed as she pulled herself together. Crossing her arms and slightly tilting her upwards, she looked into the doctor's bright eyes. "There's always a catch when it comes to these kinds of things. What's the price if I take these? My lifespan shortens, I only have five hours to go outside, it drugs me or something?"
"I'm hurt you think I would just give you these without setting out the consequences." There was a slight glint in his eyes before it quickly disappeared. Y/N hummed, urging the doctor to continue.
"There are exactly 15 pills in here. And consuming just one of these bad boys right here, would allow you to go outside! Though, time is very important when taking these. You'd have 10 hours before the pills effects wear off. These would dull your hypersensitive senses, but not to a point where you can't feel, smell or do anything. No no, it'd just be like how you were before. You'd feel slightly dizzy and be a little itchy, but besides that, nothing too extreme. It just dulls all your body senses down." Receen gave Y/N a small smile. She looked a little weary, unsure if what he said was true. She looked at the bottle then back to Doctor Receen, fingers twitching every now and then. Breathing in and letting it out slowly, Y/N stared straight into the doctor's eyes.
If I take these, I can finally go out. I can hug mom and dad, I can be around Denki again. I can meet Sero face to face and feel the grass again! I can be... happy again. But if these don't actually work, I'd immediately die on the spot. I'd be able to go outside though. Aah, so much going outside, I can meet new people! I don't wanna spend the rest of my days slowly rotting away in here anyway.
"So Y/N, are you going to take them or let all our time go to waste?"
Tumblr media
Sero looked at his hands solemnly, thinking about what Y/N had told him. He swallowed the lump forming in his throat, then lightly slapped his cheeks to stop the wave of emotions from spilling out.
"Yo, you good dude? It's not everyday I see someone willingly slapping themselves." Kaminari chuckled, walking in and closing the door with his foot as he carried a soda bottle and a bag of chips towards the boy sitting on his bed. Sero grinned, feeling the sadness of everything wash away.
"Yeah, I'm perfectly fine. But what about you though? After we had that conversation, you were, well, umm... kind of out of it." Kaminari froze, letting a dejected smile appear on his face. Dragging a hand down his face, he let out a sorrowful laugh.
"She's my best friend. My first real, true friend. She's basically my sister at this point. So when she collapsed that day, I felt my whole world crashing down. She is the sweetest, the most kindest, person I have ever met. She never let me degrade myself, alway cheered me up when people called me stupid." Kaminari rubbed his eyes, opening the bag of chips and plopping one of them into his mouth.
"It hasn't been the same ever since she left, her parents barely come over anymore, and they're always so sad whenever I see them. My own parents aren't the same either, they treated her like their own daughter. I can't even begin to imagine how Y/N feels about this all. She was the top in our grade, highest scores in our test. No one could compare to her. M-my heart breaks for her. She lost everything." Sero let that information sink in, thinking about how she was before. He smiled as he saw Kaminari's shoulders begin to shake. He cares so much for her.
He put his hand on his shoulder, watching Kaminari slowly lift his face towards him. "Come here you emotional ball of feelings." Being the friendly guy he is, Sero gave the sobbing boy a hug, cuz hugs fix everything.
"No homo though bro." And with that, they both laughed out loud, continuing their bro day.

In The Woods Somewhere (Fae! Akaashi x Fem! Reader) (NSFW)
Hi cuties :’) Do I even need to apologize for being inactive at this point? Lmao. I’ll never return to my peak in 2016/2017, haha. Anyway, this was a request from my friend that I realized I never posted. Oops. I hope u like it I luv yall sm!!!!
______________________________________________________________
The first time she saw him it was May. Dewdrops danced on Silver Dollars and Lamb’s-ear, and Jasmine and Lily of the Valley were braided into her hair. She spent her days in May collecting flowers and herbs for her mother, ever since spring came, her mother had been bedridden, and worrying __ mad. She knew the herbs would help substantially, but she also knew the roses and carnations would heal a different side of her mother. On her way down to the carnation field just beyond the woods that swallowed her quaint little property, she saw him. She knew who he was, rather what he was before she had the opportunity to approach him. If she hadn’t the knowledge very little would have kept her from running to him. Her mother always warned her of his kind, they were dangerous, they would rip out your womb and starve you of food- but the way his gunmetal eyes stared into hers the moment he noticed her walk past him was enough to have her in his trance. He sat inside a faerie ring, several small birds clung to his sides, and a Barn Owl perched on his arm. If it weren’t for her mother on her mind, perhaps she would have been bolder- instead, she just broke a moment of eye contact and walked right past him, choosing to ignore his existence, and he ignored hers. 
The second time she saw him, she wasn’t so timid. Spore prints were her intention that day, or at least that’s what she told her mother, and while toadstools grew at random in the clearing in her backyard, she couldn’t help but be attracted to the faerie ring in which she had seen him the first time. 
Much to her disappointment, the face she had stumbled across weeks ago wasn’t present. It would’ve been easier for her to acknowledge him if he was already there, but she figured she would have to take measures into her own hands. With little to no forethought, she held her breath, closed her eyes, then stepped right into the vacant ring in the clearing. 
Before she even had the opportunity to open her eyes, she felt her body being vaulted backwards. She shrieked, then groaned as her back hit the ground beneath her. Upon opening her eyes, she saw him, the Fae with the beautiful eyes staring down at her. She couldn’t help but smirk at the slightest- lore always said that the Fae folk would do anything to make you miserable, but it almost seemed like this one was looking out for her. Before she could say anything to him, he disappeared just as fast as he came. She picked herself back up, sighed, then returned back home. 
Then she didn’t see him for a while. While she knew it was for the best, a part of her ached for a missed opportunity. There could’ve been so much adventure at hand if only she had acknowledged him, even if it meant giving up her womb. All she could do was fantasize about what could’ve been at night before she went to bed. It was all she ever did. 
Until she woke up to a pile of feathers on her windowsill. They were kept still by a small pebble from her garden, but the array was beautiful. A Blue Jay, a Crow, a Cardinal, and a Goldfinch. Accepting gifts from the Fae was strictly prohibited, yet she grabbed the feathers, and sprinted towards the faerie ring in which she had paid her visits to one too many times. 
She didn’t sit inside the ring, instead, just kneeling on the outside with the feathers cradled gently in her hands. 
“Hello?” She called out. If anyone caught her, she would look terribly foolish talking to herself while holding a handful of feathers. “This gift is beautiful, but my mother would tell me I cannot accept it.” 
She waited a moment, then heard the soft tap of footsteps on the grass behind her. Spinning around, she saw him, in all of his glory. He really was a beautiful thing, and that’s why she reckoned she thought of him so much. There was something about his aura, and those beautiful eyes, she couldn’t help but smile when she saw him. 
“Hello.” 
“Are you a fool?” He replied, towering over her as he stood across her. 
“Maybe.” She replied. “Or maybe I just want to be your friend.” 
“That would make you a fool.” Uncharacteristic for a faerie, he sat down next to her, and handed her another feather- a Great Horned Owl. 
“Thank you.” She smiled, and she immediately watched his stoic expression switch to a frown. 
“You weren’t supposed to say that.” 
“I wasn’t aware that this was a test.” __ shrugged, twisting the Owl feather between her fingers. “So, what do I owe you?” 
The Faerie looked at her, baffled, and cocked an eyebrow. He opened his mouth as if to say something, then shut it, merely shaking his head in response. 
“You wanting to involve yourself with the Fae takes the fun out of all of this, you do know that, correct?” He sighed, and __ merely giggled. 
“Am I making your job difficult?” 
“No, no, just interesting.” 
“Well, you were the one who pushed me from the ring and brought me a gift. From my side, it feels like you’re the one who’s seeking me out.”
“Perhaps I’m looking for companionship.” __ felt her heart skip a beat as her eyes locked with his. Before she thought they were a light shade of bluish gray, but under the canopy of leaves, they looked a deep green. Maybe his eyes were magic, too. 
“My name is __.” __ smiled, taking a feather and reaching it out to brush it gently against the bridge of his nose, causing him to jump back in confusion. “And yes, that is my real name. __ __. Use it at your will.” 
“Are you that bored?” A slight chuckle passed the lips of the Fae as he shook his head. “Or are you that trusting?” 
“Perhaps a little mix of both…” She trailed off, searching for the name of the Fae across from her. He blinked at her slowly, the mechanics of his mind working out whether or not he could trust her with his own name or not. She smiled softly as she watched his thought process, fiddling with the feather in her hands as she did. 
“My name is Akaashi Keiji.” He smiled softly. “You may call me Keiji.” 
“Keiji.” The name felt like honey butter against her lips and she smiled, bidding him farewell using his lovely name, Keiji, and skipping back to her house. 
The friendship that blossomed between the two was unusual, yet __ had somehow managed to keep it a secret from her mother. It wasn’t difficult to sneak around, especially since her poor mother had been bedridden for quite some time. It had gotten to the point where it was worrying, her rendezvous with her companion cut short, and missed as the weeks progressed. Keiji still left small gifts on her windowsill, almost as a beacon for her to visit him, yet she felt overwhelming guilt at the thought of her leaving her poor mother alone in a terrible time. Between praying to every deity for her mother's safety, and attempts to nurse her mother back to health, she found it hard to think about anything else besides her mother, even if the word “Keiji” found itself tumbling off her lips at random times throughout the day. 
Then, as his name fell from her lips once as she brewed her mother a chamomile tea, she realized her situation. Keiji, he was a Faerie, he could heal her mother. The adrenaline of this realization ran through her body like lightning, and as soon as she handed her mother her tea and gave her a chaste kiss on the forehead, she left through the front door and sprinted through the woods. 
Keiji must have felt her energy, because as soon as she stumbled towards the ring, he was already there. She looked like a decent mess, the hem of her skirt and her knees covered in grass stains from tripping over herself. Keiji looked at her in surprise and what he could only describe as his form of excitement. 
“Oh, Keiji, Keiji.” She gasped, attempting to catch her breath. “Can you please help me?” 
“You’re aware everything comes at a cost, correct?” He muttered, offering her a seat next to him on the grass. She sat down quickly, then grabbed his hands in hers, causing him to flinch at the slightest. 
“Keiji, please, my mother…” __ still struggled to catch her breath, a mix between sprinting and her adrenaline. “My mother has been gravely ill for quite awhile and I’m afraid she isn’t going to make it much longer.” 
“And you would like me to…” 
“Please make her better. I will do absolutely anything in return.” 
“Ah, health.” Keiji sighed deeply and cocked his head. “It isn’t impossible for me. When your mother wakes up tomorrow morning, she will be in perfect health. Memories of her illness will be faded and distant and she will be up and active just as she was before she was ill.”  
“Are you serious?” __ responded, almost giddy, a smile cracking on her face. 
“Yes. It’s very possible. However, you are aware that there is a heavy price to pay.” 
“God, Keiji, I gave you my name when we first met, I don’t care about prices.” 
“Well, this one might be different for you.” He blinked slowly, catching __’s gaze. “In return for your mothers health, your mortality belongs to me.” 
“Woah.” __ inhaled sharply, then exhaled deeply. “So, does that mean that I have to die, you own me until I die or-” 
“It means you’ll have to live in limbo between your realm and mine for the rest of my eternity.” 
“Immortality doesn’t seem so bad.” 
“You might eat your words.” 
“Do I still get to see my mother?” 
“Yes, until you gradually outlive her then-” 
“Well I would’ve outlived her eventually.” 
“You’re insatiable, woman.” Keiji sighed, rubbing his temples. “Is there seriously nothing wrong with giving away your precious human life to a Fae?” 
“Not when it’s you, Keiji.” 
__ watched his eyes roll into the back of his head, then watched his chest rise and fall heavily. Soft hands fell onto hers, and her eyes met his. 
“You’re completely and utterly confident in your decision?” Keiji asked once more, almost insecure about their transaction. 
“Yes, Keiji. My mother means everything to me.” __ nodded. 
“Enough to give yourself away to me?” 
“Well-” __ paused, giving his gentle hands a squeeze, “This is just a win win situation for me.” 
She watched as Keiji’s frown twisted into a silhouette of a smile, and his hands crept up her arms, up to her shoulders, and he pushed her gently back against the soft grass beneath them. 
“In all my years I’ve never met somebody quite as insane as you, my dear __ __.” 
“And yet here we are. I’m the one you chose to give my mortality up to you.” 
“Yes I did.” 
Keiji leaned down and ever so gently kissed the tip of her nose, her cupid's bow, then her lips. __ all but eagerly kissed back, the softness of his lips something completely foreign to her. A shiver of excitement ran up her spine as she kissed him back, her hands running up his back to bury themselves in a mess of wavy black hair. 
“You’re so enticing.” Keiji muttered against her lips. “I was waiting for this.” 
“You didn’t have to wait for me to come crying over my mother to have me.” __ giggled. “You’ve had me all along.” 
A guttural groan came from the back of Keiji’s through as he kissed her again, deeper and rougher than the first time. 
“A human has never made me feel this way before.” 
“And I take that as an honor.” 
__ buried her nose in the crook of Keiji’s neck, kissing his collarbone then ever so gently nipping her teeth against his copper flesh. She felt him sigh against her cheek as she kissed his collarbone rougher, then trailing a mix of gentle and bruising kisses up the column of his neck. 
“If I’m going to be yours forever…” __ cradled Keiji’s face in her hands as she kissed him on the lips once again, “You’re going to have to show me how worth it it’ll be.” 
Keiji wasted no time in crashing his lips into hers, kissing her so gently, so feverishly it brought chills up her spine. Her arms snaked around his neck again, kissing him deeper, deeper, feeling every pulse in her body beat for him. Heaven knows she’s wanted this, it was even more enticing now that it was magically bound. She felt his cold hands run under the hem of her dress, and wordlessly she let him slip it off of her body and over her head- she wanted to be exposed for him. It was silly, foolish, throwing herself at a man like this, it was something completely foreign to her, yet lit a spark inside of her core the more she thought about it. The embarrassment and inevitable realization was sure to come later, but in the meantime, as Keiji began to place cold, gentle kisses below her navel, the only thing she could focus on was him. His fingers danced over the sculpt of her hip bones, and eventually, the softness of her inner thighs. 
“Dare I ask for your consent?” He muttered, leaving __ giggling. 
“After I sell my soul to you?” 
“Well, it doesn’t hurt to be respectful.” Keiji  hummed, his hands running up her body again and leaving goosebumps in their wake. __ sat in silence, unaware of what his next move would be. Her heart was in her throat as Keiji got closer and closer in between her legs, and he could tell. When he reached the seam of her bloomers he chuckled deeply, and placed a deep, open mouth kiss against the fabric. She all but jumped, the feeling wasn’t foreign ate her own hand, but being caught engaging in these activities with the boys in her village was taboo, and she was far from being experienced. She wondered if Keiji wordlessly knew, or assumed she knew what she was doing. Nevertheless, Keiji gently slipped her bloomers off  of shaking legs, and wasn’t late to rubbing at her slit. 
“Oh!” She jumped, completely surprised. She hadn’t anticipated him finding her sweet spot so quick, let alone touching her at all. Keiji paused for a minute to unbutton his thin shirt, and she propped herself up on her elbows to watch him. His skin was the most beautiful shade of tan, she noticed, her eyes running up and down his torso and noticing the veins that webbed around his sculpted arms. Next were his trousers, he was expressionless as he did this, and it would’ve been frightening if she hadn’t previously learned that he majored in stoicism. When his member popped out of his boxers, she let out a tiny exhale. It seemed perfect, pretty even, and definitely wasn’t lacking. She moved to throw her bra off of her, she found no shame now in being completely exposed to him. Their bond was eternal from here. And as if it were on instinct, she opened her legs more for him, which was greeted with more rubbing against her clit. 
“Oh god, Keiji.” She threw her head back and whimpered. Her eyes blurred for a moment as she focused on the full moon above her, and all the stars that danced around it. She found it harder and harder to keep herself propped up on her elbows, her high chasing her the more he moved against her. 
Her arms collapsed underneath her, and the moment her back hit the grass, the first heavy wave of her orgasm hit her, a deep and heavy sigh escaping her as it did. His name was all she could moan as she rode out her high, strangled breaths leaving her mouth afterwards. It hit her like a train, the pure and unholy satisfaction of pleasure wasn’t foriegn to her, but in this circumstance, it left her dripping onto the grass below them. This didn’t go unnoticed by him, he ran one finger up her slit, which caused her to jolt from her after high sensitivity. Keiji merely smirked, leaning over her body to catch her lips in a kiss once again. 
“Kei-” She stammered against his lips, trying to prop herself back up on her arms to look up at the gorgeous Fae who she was enamored with. “Keiji.” 
“Yes, my dear?” 
“Oh god, Keiji, fuck me.” 
There was a foreign thrill of being exposed in nature the way her and Keiji were at the moment. She could feel her heartbeat all throughout her body as Keiji positioned himself above her, his lips on her chest as he got a feel for her body. An owl hooted off in the distance, crickets chirped and other gentle sounds of nature were all that she could hear besides Keiji’s gentle breaths. In one slow, fluid movement, he slid himself inside of her to the hilt. She almost felt paralized, nothing else dared cross her mind besides Keiji. Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes as she kissed him. The numb pain was worth it, anything was worth being close to him. 
“You’re doing so well.” His voice was still so monotonous, it spawned butterflies in her stomach. She opened her mouth to speak again, but at that moment Keiji pulled out and slammed into her again, only ammitting a small, gentle squeak from her. Keiji began to rut into her at an even pace, leaving her wordless and tingling on the earth below. She let out another pathetic moan, wishing she could do more for him from her submissive position. 
“You’re so fucking-” She stopped to sigh, then grabbed at the roots of the grass underneath her. “You’re so fucking etheral, Keiji.”
Keiji chuckled in response, his thrusts getting deeper and deeper the more he moved. The feeling of being exposed to him and mother nature sent chills across her bare body. She wished she could do more for him, make him feel better too, but her had her locked in this pathetic position, all she could do was spread her legs further apart and let him fuck her senselessly. 
And he did. The soft pants that came from his parted lips made her feel even more full than before, and the more she thought about the way he stretched her, the wetter she felt herself become. This didn’t go unnoticed by Keiji at all, him making a comment on how she was such a good girl. Her senses were clouded by chills and sex and butterflies in her stomach. 
“You’re doing so good.” Keiji hummed, yet his monotonous voice sounded a little more strangled. “I’m gonna come.” 
“Come inside me.” She muttered, not even thinking. “I’m yours.” 
Moments later, with a gentle groan, his thrusts came to a halt, and spilled himself inside of her. She felt fuller, fuller than before, and warm. She sighed softly, holding him against her with his cock buried deep inside of her still. 
“Am I worth it for forever?” She asked, her fingers running through his hair as she kissed his forehead gently. “Do you really want me forever?” 
“Yes.” Keiji hummed, kissing her back. “And I wish you found me sooner.”

Tumblr media Tumblr media
The skirt of your dress was so heavy, your desperate pulls at it leaving your leg exposed to the cold cobble below you, the adrenaline flowing through your veins stopping you from feeling it. The moment you could, you grabbed your dagger out its holster, and drove it into your opponent’s stomach. But his hold around your neck didn't falter, he simply glanced down at where you'd impaled him, and began laughing maniacally, his grip on you only tightening. Your breath hitched in your throat, not knowing what to do. A door creaked open across the street, your head snapping towards it for help. But instead, you faced Lorenzo's bedroom door, finding yourself in his bed yet again. Just a dream, a nasty dream. You relaxed into his soft bed sheets, as he noticed you were awake. Where was he returning from? Oh, Lucrezia's... of course.
"How are you feeling?" he asked, not bothering to look at you as he turned away, beginning to get dressed.
"Like stealing your bed linen," you groaned, flopping onto your back, your skin soothed by the softness.
A beat passed before he spun around to answer. "They're yours, a starting payment for last night," He had a shit eating grin on his face as he worked on the buttons of his shirt. You failed to mirror his expression. Last night cost a lot more to you then Medici bed sheets. And you imagined it would cost a whole lot more to make it up to Lorenzo.
"I really am sorry, Lorenzo." You pulled yourself away from his bed, moving closer to him. The cool morning air nipping at your bare legs as a reminder you were only wearing one of his shirts. His eyes poured into yours, his gaze unfaltering.
"No need for an apology," he pulled his jacket on before doing it up, making a mess of the buttons as he focused on keeping eye contact with you instead of them, "that's the last time I'm saying that." You still didn't believe he wasn't furious with you.
You closed the space between you two, gently dropping your hands onto his, moving them to do up the buttons for him. He didn't say anything, but his jaw clenched.
"Okay," you wondered how to approach the topic, "no apologies, but we still have to discuss it."
He looked to the ceiling as you continued with the buttons. "And we will. When I'm back."
"Back?" You were quick to remark. He had only just returned from spending the night with Lucrezia, and he was leaving again?
"The Orsini girl is downstairs. I won't be long," He almost seemed scared to say it to you. As he should be. Why was Clarice here? You were certain your little talk had dissuaded her. Honestly you expected better of her.
"I thought you said-" Lorenzo didn't give you the chance to finish your thought.
"The visit was unexpected. I was certain she didn't wish to marry. She still couldn't. But she's been waiting long enough," he continued with his explanation. You couldn't hide your anger. Lorenzo was focusing on such trivial matters when you had ended another person’s existence last night. And going to speak to Clarice when he was still having dalliances with Lucrezia? It wasn't fair... to Clarice.
"Well good luck," you kept your thoughts to yourself for once, and turned for the window as you'd finished dressing Lorenzo.
"Y/n," his hand found yours, "I shan't be long. Please wait here for me. You need some rest and it's just easier." You could tell how sincere he was.
You didn't bother fighting, or speaking at all. A simple nod sufficed.
"Thank you, lock the door after me," Using the hand holding yours, he brought it to his lips to place a kiss onto your knuckles, leaving instantly after. Why did he do that? You held the hand to your chest, confused. After a moment’s thought, you did as he said and locked the door, your eyebrows still furrowed. How peculiar. You weren't some noble woman at a ball, he's probably just stuck in his ways, a force of habit. It didn't mean anything.
A shiver involuntarily slipped through your body. You thought of just climbing back into the warmth of bed but didn't want Lorenzo to return to you that way. You didn't have anything to change into as Lorenzo decided to burn half your closet last night. You went to root in his instead, but surprise, surprise, it was all men's clothes. You knew that wouldn't bode well when you had to walk through the streets of Florence later. Instead, you made your way back to the door, trying your best to listen before unlocking it and pulling it open gently. The coast seemed clear, so you danced across the hall to what you believed to be his sister, Bianca’s, room. The door was already open a crack. You listened carefully, hoping to hear her sound asleep but there was no noise to be heard. Maybe you had slept longer than you imagined. You slipped through the crack, seeing the room to be empty. You began to wonder where she was before you caught yourself, it didn't really matter and you should really be counting your blessings. You quickly stole a dress from her wardrobe, before sneaking your way back into Lorenzo's room to get dressed. You sat on the bed beside his folded shirt, awaiting his return, fidgeting in Bianca's dress, it had been hard to fasten by yourself and didn't seem to quite sit right.
Minutes passed and there was no sign of the Medici. You had picked at your nails long enough, and decided to give into your urge to snoop. Who could blame you? It was basically your job. You made your way around Lorenzo's room, picking up some of his trinkets for further inspection, and, although notably out of character for you, you put them back. It just didn't feel right to steal from him anymore. You hated yourself for feeling that way but you couldn't help it.
Your fingers landed on a small vial in the drawer of his desk, your tube of poisons. You still had most of what you'd purchased at home, but this was your original assortment you'd made he'd taken from you. You shook it slightly as you examined it. You were still fascinated with the practice of mithridatism. After contemplating it for a moment, you took another (tiny) dose. Things couldn't get much worse for you anyways. You'd just be more patient this time.
You soon grew bored, as you weren't making any money from your rummaging, and floated back towards the door. You pressed your ear to it, but you couldn't pick up anything from the thick wood. You went to the window instead, glancing around, watching as light rainfall splashed in the puddles from last night’s downpour. No one was out for walks in the garden because of the weather, so you didn't have to worry too much about staying hidden. Your eyes trailed down to the path by the front doors, to see Clarice being helped into her chariot. So they were finished speaking. You couldn't make out her expression from where you were, but her body language gave you some hints, although you weren't sure whether her hung shoulders and dragged feet meant the marriage was on or off. You turned to face the door, expecting Lorenzo any moment. But your expectations weren't met. Minutes passed and there was still no sign of him. Your eyes wandered back to the window, the raindrops soothing as they trickled down the pane, distracting you from your inner turmoil.
A bright blue blob appeared in the corner of your eyes. You blinked to refocus them, to see Lorenzo leaving in the same blue cloak he'd worn the day you first met. He headed in the same direction as Clarice, towards the town. It was a long walk in rain, you would know. You cursed out loud, 'shan't be long' indeed. You stomped throughout his room, going back to his closet to steal the plainest cloak you could find. You considered leaving the door locked just to irritate him, but decided against it, and exited through the window.
You followed the same route you took as last night, going around the city altogether, rather than taking all the winding paths into it. You kept your head down, and your footsteps light. You still weren't one hundred percent, but you were starting to feel much more yourself now that you'd rested. You didn't feel as weak as last night, and you made a mental promise to yourself to never let yourself be that weak ever again. You weren't sure you were fully in control anymore. It all seemed so fun just a little while ago, getting all this extra coin, for basically the same work. And you couldn't lie and say sneaking around with Lorenzo de ‘Medici behind Pazzi's back wasn't thrilling. But now it was all just stress. You'd gone too far. You couldn't turn back now. And you felt like you only had so much time left on this path. The walls were closing in around you, and there was no way out.
"Is that y/n Bellondini? “A familiar voice brought you out of your spiral.
"Who's asking?" You teased, turning to face Francesco. Your chest tightened as he embraced you, somehow also feeling a sense of relief to see him.
"How are you?" He asked when you eventually pulled away.
"Glad to see you," you reply, not sure how honest you were being. His grin grew at your words. "How have you been keeping?"
"As good as I look," he stood taller as he complimented himself.
"Oh," you frowned, "I'm sorry," you continued your mocking, resting your hand on the side of his shoulder as if to comfort him.
"I haven't missed your mockery, Bellondini," his hand moved to sit atop yours.
"But you've missed me, Pazzi," you used each other's names against each other. You couldn't say you didn't miss this light hearted teasing either, but it wasn't the same anymore.
Francesco didn't say anything more, he just contained a small smirk, while you both continued to look at each other. You smiled back, although you were far from happy. You knew you could never truly be his friend after what you'd done. You could never go back to just being a Pazzi spy. You could never return to a life you didn't even realise you'd been leaving behind.
"We better get out of this rain," you spoke after a second too many had passed. The clouds were falling down with more severity as the minutes ticked by.
"We best. I was just heading home," your hands fell as the moment ended, and Francesco's grin faded.
"I'll walk you," you offered, and you did just that. You spoke of trivial matters for the short walk, halting at the entrance, where you parted your ways. You dared not enter in the way the devil dared not enter a church.
As you turned to head back home, your eyes flickered towards the docks, as if your victim would be swimming along with no worries. You were relieved to see no such thing, and no trace of your crimes left. You would never curse the rain again. Your mind wandered as you walked, would Lorenzo have returned yet? Would he even notice your absence? Maybe he would, and feel relief that he didn't have to deal with you. You recognised that you were quickly becoming a bigger problem to him than you were an asset. You also recognised you had no real leverage with the Pazzi's over him anymore. Where had he even gone? Clarice had left separately. Where else would he go in such a hurry that he couldn't even tell you. If he were truly that busy why not just inform you rather than leave you waiting. You were glad you left when you did, humiliated that you even stayed that long in the first place.
A voice in the back of your mind was whispering her name. It made sense. What was the one place Lorenzo snuck off to? But he had only seen her last night? Unless you'd thought wrong. Maybe he did stay with you all night, and went to explain now. Your curiosity got the best of you and you switched your course, making your way towards Lucrezia's house in the heart of the city. You took shelter under roofs as you ignored your better sense, and continued on your path. Why did you even care if he was with her? Because he'd left you for her. Left you after you'd quite literally killed for him. That's why.
You reached her street, hiding around the corner of a building across from her home. You didn't risk getting any closer, still not feeling in the best shape. You stood there, the rain falling down all around you, questioning yourself every second you did. You kept telling yourself to just go home, warm up and recover from recent events but you just couldn't. You stayed, watching, it wasn't anything you weren't used to. You often had to wait hours on missions, but none that you'd been so invested in. It was difficult to let your mind wander to other things, your focus was unwavering for once.
Eventually, the door opened, and you watched as you had the first time as Lorenzo stepped out. He glanced upwards at the raindrops, quickly pulling his hood up, before making his way down the street, away from you. You don't know what else you were expecting. That first night on the rooftop you'd been waiting hopefully, before bragging your advantage to Lorenzo himself. But now you no longer felt you had the upper hand.

“That’s my granddaughter Bucky....” part 4
This is a long one guys i apologize. i really hope yall like how this turns out. there will be a few more parts. then the series will really begin.
Bucky x reader, Steve x granddaughter!reader
words- 2,111
Almost a month has gone by since everyone came back from the snap. It took a while for everything to go back to normal. Well as close to normal as possible.
I decided to not take up a job at the moment to just stay at home with gramps and help him since he was now 5 years older and looked frail.
I tossed and turned all night. When I looked at the time it was about 5:20 am so I decided to get up and make a pot of coffee.
I poured in into my favorite mug, which of course was a captain America one, and sat out on the back deck.
Gramps lived in a quiet neighborhood in Brooklyn and it had a backyard but was small. When my parents would come home they only had a small apartment and would only be home for a short time. Gramps didn’t want me to grow up in a small place like he did when he was a kid so he took me in. And also because I was an accident baby so my parents pretty much gave me up to him and grandma when I was an infant.
I was watching as the sky turned from the dark blue color as I saw strikes of orange come in showing that the sun was rising.
My thoughts kept going back to Bucky. After I came back from fighting with them, the following weeks I asked about everyone. I had a lot of questions about Bucky. He told me his story and how he pretty much just starting living his life after Wakanda. They helped him get the Winter Soldier out of his head so now he can finally be a normal person.
Gramps always thought the best of people and if they deserved to be saved, then they must have a great heart. I sure hope to see him one day.
My thoughts were pulled from me when I heard Gramps, “I thought I was the only one to wake up this early.”
I looked up at him as he came with a cup of coffee and sat down on the steps next to me.
“I couldn’t sleep.” I looked back out at the sun coming up.
“I can tell by the dark circles under your eyes that you haven’t been able to sleep for a while.” He spoke in between sips. “What’s on your mind Sparky?”
I sighed and finished my coffee and put the mug down, “I’m not actually sure anymore.”
“Want to come for a ride with me today? I have some friends to visit.”
I looked over at him, “Are you only asking me because you want me to drive you?” I smiled up at him.
He smiled back, “Well that to. But I want you to see something. Someone’s going to need you today.”
“Everytime you say that, something bad happens or I have to fight a bunch of aliens.” I laughed.
“No this time it’s good. For you at least.” He grabbed my hand.
8 o clock rolled around and after I made us breakfast I went and changed into a pair of dark jeans and a white t shirt.
We jumped in the car and took off out of the city. He put the GPS on and just told me to follow it.
A few hours later and we arrived at our destination. I didn’t remember the place being this trashed the last time I was here. It was what was left of the fight.
“Remember, they don’t know who you really are. Well, someone might figure it out.” He spoke before he opened the door.
We got out and in the distance I see a few people standing around some platform.
“Im going to sit at the lake. I want you to go by them.” He let go of my hand.
“Are you sure gramps?”
“Yes. Now go. And go with your gut instinct.” he came down and kissed my cheek.
“uh…okay.” He smiled softly and started to walk towards the lake.
I took a deep breath and walked towards the group.
They must have heard me coming because they all stopped and looked towards me. I saw gramps standing next to the hulk wearing a weird white suit of sorts with a briefcase by his feet and some kind of spear.
“I thought we’d never see ya again Sparky!” Sam yelled out.
“How’d you know where we were?” Young gramps spoke up.
I had to come up with something. Gramps voice echoed in my head. Go with your gut instinct.
“I had a feeling you guys were up to no good.” I spoke up.
“We have to return the infinity stones back to where they came from at the exact point in time.” Young gramps answered.
“Ah I see. So you guys figured out time travel huh?” I asked.
“Yes. I’m sorry he haven’t met. I’m Bruce Banner.” I walked over to him as he stuck out his huge hand.
“Sparky. Nice to meet you.” I took his hand and smiled up at him.
“I hope that isn’t your real name.” he said as he laughed.
“No thank god” I laughed back.
Standing so close to younger gramps he got a real close look at me. I see him looking at me with that same confused look he had a few weeks back at the fight. Only this time my face wasn’t so dirty I really hope he doesn’t suspect anything.
“So what are ya doin out here doll?” I heard Bucky speak up and step closer. I could feel my face turn hot from the nickname he just called me.
I looked down at my feet and laughed softly before looking at him. “Just coming to see how you all were holding up is all.”
“We’re holding. Steves about to return the stones so you get to witness time travel in action.” Sam spoke up.
I locked eye’s with gramps. This is it. This is when he goes back in time to stay with my grandma. I’ll never see gramps this young again. But then again he looks so much happier as my real gramps then he does younger. There’s so much hurt and tiredness in his eyes as I look into them right now.
I feel tears coming to my eyes when he speaks up.
“Are you okay Sparky?” he grabs both my arms.
I sniffle and wipe my tears, “Yea. I’ll be better in a few minutes.” I spoke in a low enough voice only for him to hear. “Do they know?”
He smiled softly, “Can you excuse us guys?”
Sam, Bucky, and Bruce nodded and gramps pulled me away from the group.
He turned to me when we were far enough away. “How did you find out?”
I shrugged my shoulders, “Because I know things. Did you tell them?”
He put his hands on his hips and looked down quick before meeting my eyes again, “No. I’m not sure if it’s the right call to make. I’m just so tired and…I eh…missed a dance.”
“With Peggy?” I asked.
“Yea….how do you…are you another niece of hers I didn’t know about?”
I scoffed, “Yea you can say that. What’s the one reason you don’t want to stay?”
“eh I don’t know. The only reason would be because I got Buck back ya know? He’s my best friend and after all these years we are finally back. But…”
“But what?”
“I don’t know why im opening up to you.” He laughed, “maybe I’m just tired. And not thinking straight. I’m going to come back.”
Oh no. if he doesn’t stay in time then I wouldn’t exist. Would I disappear?
“Listen gramps, you can’t stay here just because you feel like you have to ya know? You need to finally do something for yourself. After all these years of fighting don’t you think you deserve a break? Or a life of your own? Bucky’s a grown man. I’m sure he would understand why.”
He looked up at me, “Ya know you really sound like her.”
“Who?” I laughed.
“Peggy.”
“Yea well she told you enough growing up.” I laughed. Not knowing what I just said aloud.
He looked at me confused, “Growing up?” then his eyes went wide.
“Wait your not…don’t tell me…my… daughter?” he asked in a hushed voice.
My eye’s went wide, “No not daughter…I’m your…eh…granddaughter.” I looked down.
Gramps is going to kill me. He told me not to tell him.
“I’m sorry I wasn’t suppose to-“ then I was cut off by young gramps crushing me in a hug.
Then I found myself hugging him back as tight as possible.
“thank you.” He said into my hair. he pulled away and grabbed the side of my face with both of his hands.
“for what?” I asked.
“For making realize that being selfish once in a while is a good thing.”
I chuckled, “And trust me. Those two bozos will be fine without you.” He let go of my face and we both looked over to Bucky and Sam.
They were standing next to each other and it looked like they were laughing and joking about something.
“Yea I sure hope so.” He let out a sigh and looks back at me. “As long as I have you in the future, I think I’ll be fine.”
“You will. Who do you think I take care of right now? My old man.” I elbowed him in his side.
“That’s not nice…” he laughed as he both started to walk back towards the group.
“It gets worse…” we both laughed.
“What’s so funny?” Sam asked as we got closer.
“Nothing but you birdman.” I spoke up.
Bruce started laughing, “Birdman! That’s a good one!”
“God dammit…” Sam mumbled.
Sam and Bucky came over and started to talk to Steve, “Have a safe trip man.” Sam told him.
“I will.” He turned to Bucky and brought him in for a short hug, “Don’t do anything stupid till I get back.”
As they ended the hug Bucky said, “How can I? your takin all the stupid with ya.”
I laughed at their childish bicker.
Gramps grabbed the spear and briefcase and walked up onto the platform.
Bruce yelled, “Initiating time travel in…”
I went over and stood next to Bucky.
“3…” Steve locked eyes with me and nodded. “2…” then his helmet went over his face. I smiled up at him. His eyes then flickered to Buck and he nodded to him. “1!”
Then there was a weird noise and he shrunk down and disappeared.
I locked eye’s with Bucky as we both walked away from the platform.
I heard Sam and Bruce making a commotion in the back ground but knew what was going on. It seemed like Bucky did to.
“You know he was leaving?” Bucky asked me as we both stopped.
“Mhmm. Call it an instinct.”
He turned to look at me, “So you here to join Sam and I?”
“I’m not sure.” I look over to the lake and see MY gramps sitting on a bench. “But I think you guys have a visitor.”
Bucky watched my eyes and follows them to where I’m looking off at. I turned to him and see he has a genuine smile on his mouth. He understands why gramps stayed back.
“Hey Sam….Sam!” Bucky yelled. Sam comes walking over and see’s what we are looking at. He looks at both of us and Bucky nods his head in the direction of gramps. Sam looks at us with his mouth dropped and slowly walks over the gramps. Buck and I stay back.
“I should get going…” I say as I turn to walk away.
He grabbed my arm softly before I can step away. I look back and meet his eyes.
“Am I actually ever going to see you again? And not for such a short time?” he has a hint of sadness in his eyes.
“I honestly hope so.” I smile at him.
Buck lets go of a breath he seems to be holding, “Because I sure hope Steve isn’t the only man who gets to be happy…”
My heart starts to beat a bit faster. Did he get the same feeling I do when we get so close to one another?
My breath gets caught in my throat, “I hope not…we will cross paths again. When the time is right ill find you guys.” And with that he let go of my arm and I patted his arm as I turned and walked back towards the car to wait for gramps.

For the Future of Dragons and Vikings
Soooo... I’ve had this ficlet sitting in my docs for... a while now.  I had meant to have it uploaded on New Years, something hopeful for the fandom going forward... but then I never posted... nor did I post it on Hiccup’s birthday which was a bit of a missed opportunity.  Part of it was because it felt... rough, like it needed polish, but I couldn’t bring myself to get back to it.  However, with today being the tenth anniversary of this wonderful franchise, this wonderful film... well, figured it was about time to get this dumb thing out into the world.  Hope yall like it.
Oh, just a heads up, this is gonna be a bit canon divergent from THW.
-
It had been a few days since Snoggletog, the first Snoggletog the Berkians had since they’ve arrived on their new island home.  Up atop the balcony of his still new home, Hiccup took in the sight of his village before taking a deep breath of air as he tried to get his mind off of the things that bothered him.  New Berk had been coming along nicely, with only a couple places still needing a proper door or some shingles for their roofs.  The Vikings who now called this island home were happy for the most part, some of the older ones still drunk from merriment of the holiday while the younger ones made the most of the considerable snowfall in some rather inventive ways.  However, even as he tried to get lost in what he saw, Hiccup still felt like something was missing-or, rather, someone who he wished was still here.
His mind went back a few months, to when they only just been on what would become New Berk for a few days, most of the buildings he saw now not even existing as a thought on anyone’s mind yet, and the snow that currently covered the land was nowhere to be found, leaving only a sea of green.  It seemed so peaceful in hindsight, Hiccup mused, which made it seem almost impossible that the final battle against Grimmel and the Warlords who had only taken place that same day.  Hiccup and his tribe achieved victory, they managed to save the dragons, but nearly at the cost of his life as well as that of his best friend.  In that moment, it seemed clear that they-no, he could not keep Toothless and the rest of dragonkind with them, that they needed to disappear.  Toothless seemed to agree, and after one last moment together, the Night Fury motioned for the dragons to leave… 
In that moment, something unexpected, something borderline miraculous happened.
While a plenty of the dragons flew off, some towards the hidden world and others towards who knows where, there were just as many that seemed to refuse to go.  Many of them were the dragons that had been with the tribe since the defeat of the Red Death, had been with them through thick and thin.  When Astrid took off Stormfly’s saddle and urged her to follow the rest, the dragon simply nudged her and took it back in her jaws, insisting on staying with her.  Meanwhile, Hookfang simply smacked Snotlout with his jaw when he attempted to remove his own saddle before staying close, not intending on flying off either.  Even Gobber’s dragon, Grump, got up only to lay atop and trap the older viking underneath, while Cloudjumper simply watched the other dragons for a moment before tilting his head back to Valka, the call of the wild paling in comparison to the bond that he shared with her.  As the minutes went on and the number of dragons that were leaving dwindled, Toothless looked on, seeming to almost reconsider before Hiccup took the chance to wrap his arms around and give him one last squeeze.  He meant to comfort his best friend, but it ended up helping him just as much.  When he let go, Toothless gave him one last look back before taking off, slowly disappearing into the sunset, the light seeming to follow as night took hold and the stars started to speckle the sky.
Content as Hiccup was to be lost in his memories, the sound of a dragon landing behind him managed to catch his attention.  Turning around, Hiccup saw a familiar blue and yellow nadder touch down before the dragon’s rider hopped off.  He could see in her movements that she had just finished a dragon race, what with that confident sway in her steps being a bit more noticeable, and a slight shiver as the rush of victory was still coursing through her veins.  This, along with a rather playful smirk on her face as she made eye contact with him, was all telling him what just happened while he was mentally away.  Still, he always made it a point to ask what happened anyway when he had the chance, he just wouldn’t get the opportunity this time.
“There you are!”  Astrid started, a bit more bounce in her step as she got closer still.  “I was wondering what you were up to.  I didn’t see you at the race, what’s up?”
“Oh, well…”  Feeling like he was caught off guard, Hiccup scrambled to say something, a very clear stutter before he found some proper words.  “Sorry I missed it, just was… busy.”
“Busy with what?”  She asked, swinging her arms behind her back before she held them together, getting closer still with only a few feet separating the two at this point.
“I was just thinking… thinking about Toothless.”  He let out a sigh, his thoughts pouring back in.  “It’s weird, doing this without him.  I never imagined doing all… this.”  Hiccup gestured to the village, seeing juvenile dragons and viking kids playing together, while their elders ate and celebrated in their own ways… Hiccup silently thanked Odin that the dragons never developed a taste for mead and ale.  “At least, not on my own, especially not after he became the alpha and I became chief.  I’m still trying to make a better world for both dragons and vikings, but sometimes, it feels too much to bear on my own.  I know I can’t do anything about it, and he’s probably happy out there, but… sometimes I wish he would just come back.”
“Hiccup...”  Astrid took another step, lowering herself a little as his gaze started to drift down and away.  “I know it hurts to go on without him, but… remember what I said, before we rescued the dragons that day?”  She brought a hand under his chin, gently bringing his face up so blue eyes could meet green.  “That he only helped bring out what made you… you?  Made it easier for you to do that?  I wasn’t kidding when I said that, and I know you can make the world a better place.  Besides…”
Hiccup’s eyes stayed locked on her, the whole world seeming to fade out as his focus was solely on her.  “You’re not alone.  You know Stormfly and I got your back, and you know the other riders will help too, even if Snotlout and the twins still like to cause some trouble for you every now and again.”  He couldn’t help but let a smile tug at his lips, especially when he saw a heartwarming grin on her expression.  “We have something amazing with the dragons here, and it’s all thanks to what you and Toothless have done.  In a way, he’s still here with us.”
“I guess he is, isn’t he?”  A soft snort left Hiccup's nose before he looked back to the village.  He felt like Toothless would be happy to see how the dragons were doing now… and part of him could still imagine a black mass bounding between buildings and running off with some fresh caught cod.  Holding Astrid close, he felt better about going forward, feeling as though the future was going to be bright.  “Thank you, I… I really needed that.” “Mmmmm… I know.”  The blonde smiled, content to stay in his arms and wrapping hers around him in return.

The Stagecoach Doesn’t Stop Here Anymore
Anonymous said to arthurs-wife: Hello! I’ve just done the mission where Mary asks Arthur to run away with her and I was going to ask if you could write a story where Arthur goes behind the readers back to run away with Mary and leaves the reader worried about him for weeks aswell as the gang so she’s rides out to look for him and finds him and Mary kissing leaving her heartbroken as well as Arthur as he begins crying/ pleading for her to come back. Could you make it a happy/ fluffy ending? Thank you ✨💕
A/N: this got lonk. i hope it makes some sense, thank you so much for the prompt and your patience!
You stood to the side of Arthur’s tent, around the wagon, and tapped your foot nervously. If you went in there were you too needy? Did you maybe give him some time? It had only been one kiss, maybe just play it off, act natural.
You took a deep breath and swung yourself around the wagon and opened your mouth to… an empty bed. Deflated, you dropped your arms to your side and looked around. Strange, his bed looked neater and the pictures were gone from his bedside table and wagon. Your head whipped around to see if his horse was still hitched, she wasn’t.
“Charles!”
Within seconds he was at your side, strapped in and ready to go.
“What’s going on?”
“It’s Arthur,” you gestured to his empty cabin, “I think he’s gone.”
Charles surveyed the scene and motioned for you to follow him. You mounted your horses and rode off towards Valentine.
A train blundered past you both, blowing its horn and clacking away as you struggled to keep up with Charles. You both skidded into the train station and hitched your horses and barrelled inside.
“When did the last train leave?” you demanded of the ticket man and Charles put his hand on your shoulder.
“Why just a few minutes ago,” the ticket man said, holding his hands up a little at your tone.
“Did you see a man get on,” you asked, “tall-ish, long brown hair and a hat with a rope around it? Would have been wearing a blue shirt probably.”
“Oh! Oh yes,” the man said excitedly, happy he could provide you with at least a little information, “yes he came through with a woman early this morning.”
“What did she look like?” Charles asked because your throat had suddenly become so tight you couldn’t breathe.
“Brown hair, freckle on her right cheek,” he said.
“Where did they go?” you managed to ask.
“I’m sorry miss,” he said, “I didn’t sell them the tickets, just happened to see them get on board.”
There was nothing more to do, so you walked out of the station, barely registering your surroundings. The sun was up proper now and people in Valentine were starting to stir.
“Who is she?” you asked when Charles had appeared beside you.
“That’d be Mary,” he said, taking your hand and walking to your horses, “I’m surprised he actually did it this time.”
“Did what?”
“Start a new life with her.”
The sun was cold.
*** You spent most of your time in the wilderness, scouting out towns and huddled around your campfire, looking for Arthur. Sometimes Charles stayed with you to help look, but you felt more alone when he was there.
Dutch had been enraged when Charles informed him what Arthur had done and locked himself away in his tent. Hosea tried to talk to him but found more yield talking to a wall. The only person who didn’t seem to be affected was Micah, who strode around the camp, thumbs in his suspenders.
“Looks like pretty boy got himself a train out of here as quick as he could, huh?”
Only Charles and Jack had offered to help you look for him, as fruitless an effort it may be.
You all rode from the Mountains of West Elizabeth to Annesburg and there was no trace of the man. One night you and Charles and John sat around a campfire on an unseasonably cold night and drank from your respective flasks. John offered you a cigarette and you took one.
“I don’t know what Dutch is gonna do if we can’t find him,” he said, mumbling as he lit his cigarette, “might just implode. Been going that way for a while.”
“Dutch’ll keep on going,” Charles shook his head, “he’s dealt with this before.”
“Doesn’t mean he was the better for it,” John said.
You laid there listening to them talk and looked up at the stars and wondered why you were even looking for Arthur. You all were going through the motions now, doing your due diligence to make sure that if you did find Arthur, he’d know you all really did care about him.
Not that he cared for you.
*** “Get behind here.”
Charles grabbed your sleeve and pulled you behind a pillar. You had finally made it to Saint Denis, three full weeks after Arthur had left you. It was the industrial side of town and the buildings were crammed together like sardines, you hated it here and could tell Charles did too.
“What is it?” you whispered and Charles nodded to a stagecoach.
You turned to look and it stopped in front of a house. The driver stepped off and opened the door, holding his hand out for-
“That’s her, Mary,” Charles hissed and you felt him restless beside you.
When she was down another man stepped out and if it weren’t for that stupid smile you wouldn’t have recognized him.
Hair trimmed short and faded on one side, his beard almost non-existent, clean suit and not a speck of dirt on his shoes. Arthur stepped out of the carriage and Mary grabbed his hand, pulling him down and kissing him.
And that just made you so god damn mad.
“Arthur you son of a bitch!”
You stomped out of your precarious hiding space and barely heard Charles trying to drag you back. The breath had left your lungs to be replaced with cold fire and brimstone and you pulled back your fist and punched him dead in the jaw.
Like it mattered, your fists were fleas compared to his face but you think you got the point across. Tears filled your eyes and you didn’t even care about Mary at this point, all your rage was focused on this man who was doing just fine without the rest of you.
“Y/n, wait, I-”
“I’m done waiting!” you cried, “I waited three weeks for you to show your face, you coward! We all waited! Do you know what you did to us?”
“I know and I’m sorry-”
“I don’t care how sorry you are!”
Charles had come up behind you quietly and taken your hand and it calmed you down a little. Always a light in such trying times. Arthur turned his gaze to Charles and pleaded with him silently.
“At least we know you’re okay, Arthur,” Charles said and you could hear the venom in his voice, see the way Arthur recoiled from it. Mary walked up to Arthur and looked between the three of you.
“Arthur, who is this?” she asked, looking at you. Somehow you couldn’t be mad at her. She was beautiful and strong enough to tear Arthur away from a life that would kill him. “Mary this is y/n,” he sighed, “and Charles.”
“You two seem to have some kind of relationship,” she said, drawing herself up.
“We don’t,” you spat, “enjoy civilization.”
You turned on your heel and left, despite the fact that both of your horses were in the opposite direction. Anything to get away from them, from the stink of this city.
You felt a hand grab yours and you thought it was Charles but you turned.
“I ain’t got nothin’ to say to you,” you said, ripping your hand out of Arthur’s.
“I made a mistake,” he said.
“You sure seemed to be enjoying that mistake by kissin’ on it.”
“Now it ain’t like that-”
“Then tell me what it’s like!” you cried. You felt so small in front of this man.
“I got scared,” he said finally, “that night with you, made me feel things I hadn’t felt in years. I went to town to clear my head and Mary got to me first, made her case and here I am. Not my proudest moment.”
“Dutch is furious,” you said.
“As he should be.”
“I’m furious.”
“I did you wrong,” he said, taking a step closer to you, “and I’m glad y’all found me.”
“You better,” you said through your gritted teeth, “get your ass back to Valentine before I kick it back there for you.”
In spite of the sour situation he grinned at you. And in even more spite, because that’s what you were made of, you stood on your toes and kissed him, taking his face in your hands and pressing as hard as you could, feeling him wrap his arms around you.
“And grow out your beard for Christ’s sake.”

Bed of Roses (Chapter 11)
Roger Taylor x Reader
BoRhap!Roger Taylor x Reader
Tumblr media
(I never used a BoRhap!Roger Taylor gif before. I felt like this was a good opportunity)
Fic Summary: It's 1971. You just moved to London to study, and you find a band on a local pub after a bad date. The encounter doesn’t go the way you expect it, and neither does what follows this evening as you try to deal with loving Roger Taylor.
Fic Note: So I’ve had this story in my head for the last three weeks and finally decided to write it down. It’s completely planned. It will have 21 chapters and it’s divided in three acts: Dusk, Night and Dawn. It’s will be a bit angsty in the future, and it will most likely have some smut as well. I hope you guys enjoy it! Tell me what you think about it in the asks/comments/messages. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IS NOT THE LAST CHAPTER OF THE STORY. If this is your first time stumbling upon Bed of Roses, thank you for stopping by! The rest of the story is in my masterlist, the link is in my bio - can't put the link here or else the post will disappear from the tags.
Chapter's notes: Honestly, if you've never read a chapter of Bed of Roses before and just wants some nice smut to get you going, this is it. This is a few steps away from being porn without plot. I just wanted a really hot chapter before things went downhill for the characters lol, so yeah. This is easily the best smut I ever wrote, and I'm not sure if I'll ever top this - even though I haven't really wrote a lot of smut in my lifetime, so don't expect all that much lol. I'm just surprised at myself, that's all
Words: 1900ish I guess
Warnings: SMUT. Smutty Mcsmutterson. Hot smut. The smuttiest. Unprotected sex (yall already know you should use condoms. We're not in the 70s anymore)
ACT TWO - NIGHT
“Everything is more intense at night.”
Chapter 11
You were in the barn with Roger, a recording machine set on the side of his Alfa Romeo.
"Now, Y/N", he said, and you pressed the gas pedal with your bare feet. You heard the engine roar, but the car wasn't moving; the brake was pulled. Roger was recording the sound of the engine of his Alfa Romeo for the kinky car song - as you now called it.
He asked for your help because none of the guys were taking his request to have the engine sound on the song seriously, so he took you off from playing catch with the farm dog by the side of the pond.
It was a beautiful, almost warm spring day, and you hoped to swim on the pond later as they recorded - there's only so much time you can spend locked in a small room listening to the four boys argue over minutia you didn't really understand. So you excused yourself and played with the dog.
Roger admired you for a bit before interrupting you. He took in the view - you, barefoot on the grass, your silhouette almost angelic as your flowy yellow dress moved around you to the wind.
But he asked for your help, and even though you were scared to melt the inside of his car's engine, you pressed your foot against the gas pedal. "A bit more, babe", he told you, and so you did. "Okay, that's fine for now, I guess", he said, and you left the car.
He moved inside and adjusted the seat to his height. "Come inside. I'll take you on another tour of rural England", he said, jokingly, but you got inside anyway. Just like you loved to watch him drum, you loved watching him drive. He looked so confident doing it, the wind coming through the windows blowing his hair everywhere, his big hands around the steering wheel.
He drove out of the barn, and you looked at the studio as you moved away from it. "Shouldn't we tell the boys we're leaving?", you asked him, and he nodded. "I guess I should. But I need a break from them and this place for a bit", he turned to see your response, and you just smiled. "Always the rebel", you said, and it was his turn to laugh, putting his hand on your knee.
You turned your head, the fresh wind on your face, and admired the countryside. You always thought of yourself as more of an urban person, but these long drives across green fields took you back to the beginning of your relationship with Roger - the distant shows, you always drowning in papers for school, trying to finish them as he would stop in gas stations. Now school took way less of your time, since you were working part time in a minor museum in London, and you really didn't miss those early school days.
Or maybe perhaps you did. The afternoons Roger would try to get you to explain one of your papers to him, and you did, cramming years of history in a few minutes, and he'd just stare at you in awe. He said you did the same thing when you watched him write a song. You were now more used to each other, which was good in a few ways, but took away some of the mystique of being together.
You sometimes wondered if it was better that Roger had to spend time away, since it kept your relationship a bit more fresh. But even trying to imagine a Roger that wasn't in a band, always touring and doing press and composing was impossible. It wouldn't even be Roger.
"What are you thinking about?" Roger's voice interrupted your mental monologue, his fingers brushing against your thigh, and you gave him a shy smile. You didn't want to admit that you were being a tad pessimistic, so you shrugged and said "Nothing, really. How about you?".
He smirked as he answered "Barbarella. More specifically, you dressed up as her", and you laughed. He had a huge crush on Jane Fonda, especially in her white Barbarella costume, and he wouldn't stop trying to convince you to go as her to Freddie's Halloween party last year.
"C'mon, Y/N. I'll do whatever you want", he'd tell you, and you laughed. "You always do, anyway", and he got on his knees. "I'll let you pick a costume for me to wear", he begged, and that got you thinking. He said he'd just go without a costume to the party, but you had an idea.
"I'll go to the party dressed as Barbarella if-", you were cut by his lips on yours, and he broke the kiss to thank you when you said "Let me finish. I'll dress as Barbarella if you go as Angel". And he opened his mouth. "But Angel only wears fabric wrapped around his pelvis and some angel wings", he said. "Yeah, I know. I watched the movie, too", you told him with a grin.
"I know you want me to go dressed as Jane Fonda to realize some weird sex fantasy of yours after, so it's just fair if I can also realize one of mines", you observed, and he furrowed his brows. "Which fantasy?", he asked. "Well, you always looked angelic to me, with your baby blue eyes, your full lips, your blonde hair. I think it will be especially hot to fuck you if you're wearing the angel wings to complete the look", you confessed, and he smirked. "Now look at you, all kinky", he told you, and you scoffed. "C'mon, Rog, I know that's why you like me", you told him, and he embraced you. "No, Y/N. That's one of the reasons I love you", he whispered, pressing a soft kiss on top of your head.
"Yeah, that was an interesting night. It was hard to keep my hands away from you during the party", you smirked at him, and he laughed. "You know I had the same problem", he answered, grabbing your hand from your lap and kissing it.
"We could barely wait to get home", you remembered. "Yeah. But it was pretty good that we waited until we had a bit more privacy. It was a long night", he completed your line of thought.
"I wish we had some privacy now. I barely see you for weeks and all we can get is quickies, looking at the door to see if someone's about to come in. I feel like a teenager", you complained, and his eyes got bigger. "I have an idea", he said, abruptly turning to wheel to the side, leading the car into a small road in the woods.
"There's a lot of trees, and I doubt anyone's around us", his smirk being met with another one on your lips. "Now that's the first good idea you had today", you tell him, and he's about to complain that you're not supporting his kinky car song enough when you move to his lap.
He runs his hands through the sides of your body, just the thin yellow fabric separating your skin from his, and you lean to kiss his neck. "I'm not", you say, and then interrupt yourself to kiss a spot on his neck, "Wearing", you say, and kiss another spot on his neck, closer to his jaw, "Panties", you say, and stop the kisses to watch his reaction.
His lips were opened in shock, but quickly turned to a smile, a genuine smile that didn't match the situation. "I honestly can't fucking believe you exist, sometimes", he whispered, and you smiled. "Check if I'm saying the truth", you said, and he slid one of his hands down your waist as you put your weight on your knees, giving him better access to you. He then slid one of his fingers into you, and scoffed. "How did you knew we were going to fuck when you got dressed?" he asked, and you answered as you moaned, moving your hips up and down to get more friction against his fingers. "I didn't. I just thought I could get lucky", you said, your breathing heavy.
He took his finger off of you and put it on his mouth, sucking it. "So good", he said, and you put your hands on the back of his neck, pulling him to a kiss. "Also, just in case I didn't get lucky, I was gonna swim naked on the pond", you told him when you broke the kiss to recover your breath. "Always a plan B", he said, pulling you back into the kiss.
You could feel his member get hard under the thin fabric of his pants, but you didn't want to hurry it. You wanted to drag this as long as possible, to compensate for all of the time together that was being taken away from you.
His hands roamed through your body, and stopped at your breasts. He held them, your nipples already hard feeling the friction against the fabric of the dress, and you both moaned against each other's lips. He quickly moved his hands down and pulled your dress up by the hem, separating the kiss so he could completely undress you, and admiring you. "You're so beautiful", he said, leaning into you and pressing his lips against your breasts, and your breathing hitched.
You arched your back to give him a better access to your cleavage, and he took advantage of it by putting his hands on your butt cheeks, squeezing them as he sucked on the sensitive skin of your nipples.
As he earned a loud moan from you, you could feel his smile. He then moved one of his hands to the inside of your thighs, brushing his finger against your skin to tease you before sliding one, then two fingers between your folds.
You moaned even louder as he moved his fingers in sync with his lips on your breasts, holding you in place by his grip on your ass, and it was only necessary a few minutes of this for you to come. You put all of your weight on him as you tried to catch your breath, and as soon as you could control your breath again, you went back to kissing him.
You could feel his member even harder now, and you moved your hands down to unzip his pants. He smiled as you put your weight on your knees so he could move his hands up and pull his pants and underwear down. After he did it, you stroked him for a few seconds, feeling his erection pulsate under your fingers as you kissed him, your lips already hurting, but he held your wrist. "I'm not gonna last long like that", he told you, his breath hitting your face, and you nodded.
You positioned yourself and started to move your hips down on him, adapting to the feeling of him inside you again, and he moaned. You tried kissing him again as you started to ride him, moving faster by the second. You leaned against the wheel, accidentally pressing the horn lightly with your back as you moved, the sound of the horn mimicking your moans.
It didn't take you long to come again, crying out his name, and he followed you soon after. Neither of you dared to move, just tried to stabilize your breathing.
"So, this was long overdue", he told you with a raspy voice, and you laughed, the sound making his heart warm.

Wonwoo crushing on you !! // scenario
Tumblr media
a bullet-point scenario featuring our favorite wonton :D
request scenarios and reactions on my page if you’d like !!
- I’m just gonna put it out there:
- I don’t think Wonwoo is the type to actually fall for someone at first sight
- like, once in awhile, sure !! he would see a girl and think she looks cute or attractive
- but he’s not the type to chase after someone for looks
- he’d probably prefer waiting for the person to come into his life
- I have a feeling that he believes that his soulmate would cross paths with him if it were really meant to be
- but besides that
- he’d really want to know the person before falling head over heels for her
- he just wants to make sure the person he likes is someone he thinks is definitely worth his time and love <3
- bc believe me this boy could be doing a million other things besides falling in love
- like reading books
- or playing video games
- or hanging out with Mingyu
- him doing all of these other things doesn’t make him any less of a romantic though
- you’ll see what I mean later on ;)
- ENOUGH OF MY RAMBLING
- IT’S TIME TO BRING YOU INTO THE PICTURE YAY
- I’m using my default y/n background info (you’re an intern at pledis entertainment, assisting in the management of Seventeen !!)
- the first time you meet Wonwoo is when you’re retrieving files from a filing cabinet in a room that he so happened to be chilling at by himself #lone woo(lf)
- he’s reading a book at a table but he looks up to greet you with a tiny bow, which you gratefully return
- you just started working at the company and the only thing he knows about you is your name
- it’s also your first time opening that filing cabinet except
- it won’t open
- it’s locked?? or jammed? you really don’t know
- so you give it a few more tugs but it’s just not budging
- little did you know that Wonwoo was watching you from afar and had noticed you struggling to open the cabinet
- “hey, do you need help there?”
- you turn around to see Wonwoo looking at you and getting up from his chair to come over
- and you’re nervously laughing like “oh yeah, the cabinet isn’t exactly coOPERATING WITH ME AT THE MOMENT I-”
- “it needs a key,” he says in his low voice. he’s hovering over you as you crouch next to the cabinet drawer
- you kinda just look up and stare at him because you haven’t actually seen this guy up close before bUT TBH WHO WOULDN’T STARE?? THIS GUY IS SO CHARMING??:^&%&^
- and while you’re all caught up in staring, he continues to say “I’ll show you where the filing cabinet keys are. Follow me.”
- so you follow him to the room where the keys are
- you thank him afterwards as you walk back to the room you guys came from
- he’d be nice enough to wait for you to successfully open the drawer before returning to his seat
- and while you’re taking out the files you need from the drawer, you’d think Wonwoo is just reading his book again
- BUT YOU’RE WRONG
- he’s thinking of how you blanked out/stared at him earlier when he came up to you
- thas right, this boy is more observant than you think he is
- he’d be staring at his book and you’d assume he’s reading, but he’s actually replaying the past few moments with you and thinking to himself:
- she’s... kinda cute.
- SUCKS FOR YOU THOUGH BC YOU’D BE TOTALLY OBLIVIOUS TO THESE KINDS OF THOUGHTS
- it wouldn’t be until later that you realize you might mean something to Wonwoo
- bc this boy is so damn good at hiding his feelings at first
- AT FIRST
- a few days later, you’d accidentally leave behind a few of your school books in the same room you first encountered Wonwoo
- one of these books would be a novel you just so happened to pick up from the library the other day
- while the books are left unattended, Wonwoo would walk into the room and spot them
- and after looking around to make sure no one was looking, he’d pick up the novel and read the summary on the back cover
- he knows it belongs to you because one of the other books is labeled with your name
- but guess who walks in while he’s tampering with your book?
- Y O U
- and when he notices you’ve just walked in, he’d drop the book and rub the back of his neck like oH I-I WASN’T JUST READING THAT BOOK PFF WHAT
- and you’d laugh at him
- “I’m s-sorry I... just” he’d stutter
- but being the nice person you are you’d say, “It’s okay, it’s okay! You wanna finish reading whatever it was on the book?”
- and he’d be shy while quietly asking “are you sure?”
- “yeah, go ahead! I’m in no rush.”
- so he’ll pick up the book and read the last of the summary before asking you
- “is the book good?”
- and you’d tell him “I haven’t gotten too far into the book because I just picked it up yesterday, but I’ll definitely tell you what I think of it afterwards.”
- he smiles and thanks you before he hands you back the novel along with your other books
- internally you’re screaming because his smile is the cutest thingggg
- but little did you know that he was smiling because you were smiling too jdsfgaljsdfakjsdfhaj
- it’s these small and subtle moments that slowly get Wonwoo interested in you
- eventually you guys start this whole system in which you pick up books from the library, read them, and if you like the books, you pass them onto Wonwoo to read before you return them.
- you basically have a tiny little book club with Wonwoo s’cute :’)
- he gets to know you better by the books you read and the little discussions you guys have about the books afterwards
- and slowly, but certainly, he falls for you
- and not just for your interest in books
- but the way you smile when you talk about something you guys are both interested just makes his heart flutter all over the place
- your kind nature also makes him feel so secure
- he’d much rather hang out with you than play some video game
- he’d also prefer reading books that the both of you know so he can talk to you about them
- AIGHT AIGHT TIME TO DISCUSS A FEW OF HIS CRUSHING HABITS
- Wonwoo wouldn’t be too into hinting at you about his crush on you on purpose
- but once in a blue moon, you would be discussing something with him and he’d just be staring at you for an extended period of time
- you’ll have to snap him out of his thoughts and he’d be like “oh what? I’m sorry, my bad.” *blushy wonw00*
- and funny thing is, a lot of the members won’t even know his crush on you exists
- except for Mingyu and Soonyoung maybe
- they’d probably catch Wonwoo staring at you and then ask him later on if he has a thing for you
- and since he’s close to these guys, he’d probably shrug and be like “I mean, I guess???”
- *cue the squealing soongyu duo*
- they’ll probably encourage him to go up to you and confess or something
- but tbh Wonwoo would probably respond “I don’t know yet,” because he wants a little bit more time to get to know you so he can confirm his feelings
- and once he’s accepted the fact that he really likes you
- he’ll start becoming a little more nervous around you
- you might be able to sense that something’s off when you guys talk
- like his comments and sentences would be shorter
- and instead of looking at you, he’d start staring elsewhere
- because he knows his heart is going to explode every time he looks at you for too long
- that’s when he’ll start plotting a way to confess to you
- because this boy knows damn well that he won’t be able to get any closure if he keeps it all to himself
- YALL READY FOR THIS?
- so one day, he finishes one of the books you lent him from the library and returns it to you when he sees you
- except he would scamper away after giving it back to you instead of sticking around to chat about the book
- and you’re like “well that’s weird.”
- so you just head on over to the library to give back the book
- you hand it to a librarian, who begins to inspect the book as you’re heading out
- but she calls you back
- “uh, excuse me, miss? I think you left a few bookmarks in here.”
- you don’t remember leaving any bookmarks in the book, so you figure it must be wonwoo’s bookmarks
- you turn around and pace back to the librarian, who hands you the book
- you quickly flip through the pages and notice pink sticky notes in a couple of them
- you read the sticky notes in page order:
- note 1: “Y/N”
- note 2: “If you’re reading this”
- note 3: “I want you to know”
- note 4: “that I think”
- note 5: “you’re beautiful”
- note 6: “and I’m pretty sure”
- note 7: “I’ve fallen hard for you”
- note 8: “- Jeon Wonwoo”
- You immediately blush at the cute sticky notes but realize you’re still in the presence of the librarian, so you snap out of your daze
- “Ah I-I’m sorry for the sticky notes. I’ll just take them out now-”
- the librarian just smiles at you and says
- “he sounds like a keeper.”
- and you get all red before breaking out in a huge smile
- “I think so too,” you reply
- so you head back to the company building to find Wonwoo
- and you look everywhere for him, but you can’t seem find him anywhere
- but just as you’re heading out of the building into the cool night, you bump into none other than
- him
- you blush at each other in awkwardness before you break the silence
- “Uh, I found your sticky notes and-”
- Wonwoo stops you mid-sentence with a really warm hug
- like the kind of hug where he’s rubbing your back and resting his head on your shoulder I’M DECEASED
- He talks right into your ear with his deep voice oh shit
- “I’m sorry if that was a really dumb way to tell you, but I just couldn’t force the words out in person.”
- “And even if you don’t feel the same way, I don’t want this to ruin our friendship, you know.”
- You smile, “Hmm... the librarian did tell me you seem like a keeper...”
- Wonwoo laughs softly into your hair, “she’s the one who found it?”
- “yeah, and I’m glad she did,” you reply as you release Wonwoo to look into his eyes. “You know why?”
- “Tell me why,” he says softly
- “Because if she didn’t find those notes, I wouldn’t have known you feel the same way I do.”
- he pulls you into his chest in relief
- I guess love isn’t just in fiction stories after all, he thinks to himself.

Yeah that's it basically. That was a big part of Adriens character in season 2, showing us that s1 Adrien and s1Chat Noir are INDEED the same person. What people constantly forget to concider about Adrien is his upbringing, like, you all can ignore that however you want, it still happened and explains his whole character.
I remember back in season 1 I read post pointing out how "perfect" and "good" Adrien is for not letting all the bad stuff, his past and family get to him, that he's still so good and pure even tho Chloe was his only friend growing up. But you know what? That's all bullshit and season 2 showed that to us! All of this DID get to him and influenced him!
And honestly? What IS everybody expecting exactly? How can you all expect a damn prince charming? From WHERE is he supposed to get that good influence from???
He is a rich isolated boy who was only ever allowed to have one friend and shes Paris biggest bitch and most hated girl ever. The house staff isn't exactly openly loving either and just the damn fact that Gabriel is his father takes the crown because he's the freaking villain! And don't start with "Uuuhhh Gabriel wasn't that bad before!" he still was a shit father and we know that cannonly! And not only that, do you honestly think Gabriel suddenly pulled a 180 when Emilie dissappeared? He already had his villain tendencies before but simply didn't had the opportunity to life it out, such a sadistic and messed up persona like in "Sandboy" doesn't just come from nowhere out of the blue no matter how much he loves his son. Toxic and abusive love very much exists thank you very much! And Emilie? Oh no, up until Canon shows me otherwise I'm not letting Emilie off the hook! She knew Gabriel and married him and made a child with him. She too locked Adrien up his entire life and didn't gave him better friends for some reason! The way they are presenting Emilies former presents in the Agreste family tells me that shes anything but innocent in Adriens childhood!
And those are all the big influences Adrien ever had. His mother, father, Chloe and some house staff (not even sure if Natalie and the gorilla are actually employed longer than this year, can't remember anything ever telling us that) and all of those aren't exactly great yknow?
Yall can be annoyed by peoples "excuses" for Adrien however you like when they say he had a rough childhood but it's still true! Children learn their Behavior from their parents, friends and the people who surround them, so no shit Adrien has big tendencies for bad and questionable behavior. When you concider his influences, isolation, social status and recent pain of losing his mother who downright seemed to be the best but still questionable influence he ever had, you quickly realize that this boy literally had no damn reason to even be THIS nice. He totally could have been worse then Chloe when Emilie and Gabriel(jep giving him some credit her too) hadn't cared a great deal about Adrien being a proper, polite and respectful lad
Just as u said, Adrien can be just as much of a spoiled brat as Chloe. He can be an asshole, unreasonable, entitled and everything Chloe is (which we are seeing a BIG DEAL in Chat Noir fight me), the only difference is that unlike her he chooses to take an example from his mother's kindness and that's it!
And really that's it!
Adrien has a serious shitty upbringing and therefore some damn behavior issues, it's not like that's unrealistic and out of nowhere and you know what? I'm damn glad he does!
Yeah you get me right I'M GLAD
I'm so damn glad that miraculous isn't going the same route like other shows where a hero is the child of the villain with shitty childhood and upbringing but for some reason never shows any behavior issues or tendencies like their parents
Adrien is the son of Hawkmoth and Emilie I can't imagine Emilie being a perfect angel either.
Let. Adrien. Behave. Like. It!!!
I have Literally never in my life seen a cartoon where the hero child of the villain was actually allowed to be exactly that: the villains child! With all the messed up tendencies and all. It's always either like Zuko from atla where the complex issue are there BUT he belongs to the bad guys til the last season or the child is a good guy with good behavior and after finding out their parent is a villain they don't have that much difficulties separating themselves from them because "I could never join you, you are evil and need to be stopped!" I'm not expecting Adrien to join his father either but at least we are gonna get some serious complex feelings from both sides
So yeah Adrien isn't a damn perfect prince charming at all, he is a child with bad upbringing and issues aplenty, but hes still concidered a good guy despite of all this because he chooses to be nice and tries his best! I'm so incredibly excited for the future of the Agreste family because I know Astruc and the crew are gonna make this complicated, complex and realistic and DAMN am I hear for this!
And this is only going to be amazing because Adrien is allowed to act as the villains son
So LET HIM
Unpopular opinion
Adrien can and has been as much of a spoiled brat as Chloe. He has a better understanding of what he’s not suppose to do, but has on several occasions not gotten his way with Ladybug and thrown and hissy fit.
