rewatching s1 of broadchurch even tho im halfway through my first watch of s3 because i have an obsession with rewatching things and DAMN there are way more hints at who ended up being the killer than i originally thought, and a bunch of moments that are really ironic in hindsight
spoilers under the cut (yes it came out like 10 years ago but im still putting a spoiler warning)
ep1 - joe and ellie talk in the kitchen after hardy makes the statement to the media
joe: do you know what happened? i mean should we be worried for other kids?
on first watch, his tone of voice and body language here just seem like confused and worried parent, but on second, there's definitely a hint of panic in his voice
ep2 - joe, tom and fred in the cafe
joe: this is a terrible, unspeakable thing thats happened. but nothing like it will ever happen again here
tom: you cant know that though can you? you cant be sure
then after this joe's facial expression looks SO guilty like he can't think how to respond
ep3 - hardy questioning tom with joe in the room
hardy: can you think of anyone who would want to hurt danny?
THEN THE CAMERA IMMEDIATELY CUTS TO JOE. ik near the end joe swears he never wanted to hurt him but this is still a rly clever piece of editing, i love when shows do this. also the fact that in every scene where he's questioning tom, joe's in the room and occasionally talks but he's never in the frame of the camera hardys using to record it. he was literally right under their noses the entire time and they never suspected because they were focused on other people too much
ep4 hardy goes to the millers" for dinner
this scene hits so much different on second viewing holy shit. at one point they're talking about marriage and work and how hardy's divorce was partially work-related and:
hardy: this job, it does it to you
ellie: well, not to us
ellie actually makes me sob she loves her life so much then it all just comes crashing down on her
joe: do you think you're gonna solve this case?
hardy: certain.
joe: good :)
joe's reply itself here makes sense but there's a few seconds before he says it where his face is just blank and mildly panicked. he's genuinely worrying about being caught at this point.
now this one isn't a direct hint or anything but just if you think about the dialogue in a different context...yeah it fits
hardy: you bloody liar
joe: ive said nothing
hardy: and yet-
joe said nothing to the police or ellie and yet was lying the WHOLE time.
ep5 - brian asks ellie out
ellie: sorry, im married
brian: and thats an issue is it?
ellie: happily married, brian
brian: oh. okay, fair enough. only lots of people aren't though, are they?
ellie: i am.
THE IRONY OH ELLIE LET ME GIVE YOU A HUG PLEASE
ep6 - jack's wake
ellie spends the whole scene looking around to see if anyone looks worried, at one point she looks into a room (seemingly at nige but joe is stood nearby having a different conversation) and she makes eye contact with joe RIGHT as the camera cuts away
ep 6 - joe takes tom to the skate park and ellie arrives
ellie: i was just looking round that bar at the wake thinking "its someone here, why cant i see it?" the longer this goes on, im starting to suspect everyone
joe: when you say everyone...
ellie: well, nearly everyone
this is probably the most obvious hint that i can't believe i didn't catch on to. of COURSE they're gonna make a point for the killer to be the ONE person ellie LITERALLY SAYS she isn't suspicious of.
ep7 - ellie lets susan leave the police station
ellie (about susan's past with her husband and daughters): in your own house, how could you not know?
just ow. the irony of it all. fucking ow.
#in conclusion ellie miller needs a hug and im more than willing to give her one#this is why i love rewatching things almost immediately after i watch them for the first time#you notice all the subtleties you didn't notice the first time and it lets you rly appreciate the cleverness of the writing and acting#broadchurch#broadchurch s1#ellie miller#joe miller#alec hardy#olivia colman#david tennant#i love rambling about decade-old tv shows as though they've only just come out <333

any hazel headcanons
an: not a ton of them but these are just the ones off the top of my head
pre-relationship
she cannot flirt to save her life - all she knows is 'stare at pretty girl and hope she notices' so that's what she does
the girls from fight club are constantly pushing her to say something but the fear of rejection stops her every time
she'll always volunteer to be your partner (in class and in fight club)
it's not until she needs to clean you up after club that she confesses her feelings - she didn't mean to but seeing you covered in blood from your sparring made her lose all subtlety
established relationship
a certified simp, there's nothing she wouldn't do for you
she loves to hear your infodumps about anything, she'll just smile and nod along, happy to see you so animated about something
she gets jealous so easily but she won't do anything about it - she's not the type to fight someone over it but she will bring it up to you in private where you're more than willing to reassure her yk
holding hands is a must, she needs to be touching you 24/7
she makes you playlists for specific occasions (driving in her car, cooking together, making out - everything has a playlist)
she has a separate notebook that she doesn't let anyone see that has little details that she wants to remember about you - your favourite food, your favourite colour, date ideas she wants to plan, etc
she loves stealing your clothes (even if she doesn't wear them), just so she can smell you - she was really embarrassed when you came over to see your sweatshirt being used as a pillowcase
you asked her about building bombs once and she nearly proposed on the spot
good morning texts everyday without fail
she loves walking you to your locker and seeing the shocked faces of everyone in the hallway
she knows that no one understands how she bagged you but she's not complaining
not that you fight often but when you do she's a huge fan of your tactic to flash your boobs to win the argument
nsfw under the cut
idk what people say this girl is a switch
when you first start having sex, she prefers to let you take control and guide her through it until she gains more confidence
if she's had a tough day, she'll be more dominant
the second she sees your tits it's all over for her no thoughts head empty
the only time she's truly dominant is when she's jealous because she needs to remind you who you belong to (not in a toxic alpha male kind of way but in a i'm the only one that gets to make you feel good kind of way)
whimpers
she loves when you pull her chain to pull her in for a kiss
one of you bought a strap as a joke but she loves seeing you gag on it

Miles Fairchild headcanons
Warnings: yandere Miles, self harm, smoking , reader and Miles are making out(?), mention of kidnapping, negative self talk , manipulation, idk if there is anything else
Summary: how I think Miles would act with a s/o with self destructive tendencies (that's totally NOT self projecting). There are two version. One with a not yandere Miles and one with a yandere one. The first part applies to both
Asks are always open<3
(I know this isn't a miles gif but I couldn't find any good ones. Also not my gif)
If we're being objective, he wouldn't realise until later on , since he views most self destructive behaviors as normal(we all know he is self distractive too)
He would meet you at some shady place like an alley or the back of the school building. You were holding a cigarette between your fingers
Seeing you smoke he asked for one too
You gave him one and lighted up for him , his face close to yours , a smirk forming on his lips
That's when he knew
After that he would look for you in every place he went
He was quick to notice how you were always fiddling with your fingers , pulling the skin from around them
Later on when he saw you eat he realized that you ate too little/ too much
Chewing the inside of your cheek was something that he quickly noticed how often you did
Most kids Miles knew smoked for one reason: to impress their peers. That's how it always started before ending in a habitthat carried people in their adult life
He knew that some people also smoked because they were 'troubled'
But with you it was different.
It seems that you did it from pure hatred towards yourself
He had the impression that you heard somewhere that phrase ' smoking kills' and that's how you picked up the habit
Not-Yandere Miles
When you too got together he tried helping you avoid those habits in the most subtle of ways
Going in for a kiss whenever he notice you biting your lip and holding your hand when you started messing with it
Once his hand somehow stoked the inside of your wrist and he felt something weird
You felt something was wrong and you looked at him
He was staring at your hand and appeared to be having a mental debate
His subtlety was stopped at once that day
' do you cut yourself?'
You tried pulling of his arms . He didn't let you
You couldn't look at him
'no , i-' you tried saying but then glansed up at him catching his gaze.
You shut your mouth
'can I see?'
You hesitantly nodded.
Lifting your sleeve up , he didn't like what he was seeing. Old scars all around , with new ones not taken care of properly
He took you to his bathroom , bandaging you up
That was it for Miles. He now understood how he needed to help you.
' that's it. I have noticed some things that you fo and need to be stopped '
He always told you haw pretty and smart as capable you were , but after that he would be even more adamant about it
Negative self talk? Say goodbye to that shit because now whenever you try to talk bad about yourself he will cut it out immediately
Smoking? I don't think so. He will keep a close eye on you . Of course he can't tell you not to do it , but he can distract you and start making out with you so that you do it less
He holds your hand All. The. Time
Self harm? Nuh in, how about any time you feel like that you go talk to him. He will let you on the drums , trying to teach you . He will take you on a harse ride , running in the estate.
Yandere Miles
When you too got together he slowly and easily manipulated you
You would say something like 'i am so dumb' and instead of him saying you aren't ,
he would kiss your cheek and say ' well you are a bit dumb but that's why you need me'
He didn't like you piching the skin around your nails
'stop doing that, it's stupid!'
He would do like weird half insults
' you are so useless , but at least you're pretty'
' you're lucky I love you or else I wouldn't be able to stand you'
He would either think smoking is cool and encourage it or he would just not allow you to ever smoke again. No in between
Noticing your self-harm though?
Oh that changes everything
Takes everything sharp you own and hides it away.
Regularly checks your wrists to make sure there are no new scars
Threatens you to never do that to your self again
Would even get to the point of kidnapping you to keep you from doing it
'why would you do that! Do you not live me?'

What do you think about tang bo vs tang gunak for cheongmyeong. With either tang bo time travelling/reincarnated to the future or tang gunak time travel to the past?
hello!! i am so so sorry this is super late 🥺 I've been rotating this ask in my head for two months because there's simply so many possibilities with this, I absolutely love love love it!
»—————————–✄
To say that Tang Zhan's twin brother was a bit of a recluse would be an understatement.
Despite being named after one of the most renowned members of the Tang Family, Tang Gunak's son took after the known worst traits of their great ancestor.
Tang Bo was as cold and uncaring as the earlier recounts of his namesake. But unlike their ancestor, his son wasn't interested in improving his martial arts. Rather, he seemed to content himself with staying indoors and building that strange shrine of his that appeared to be dedicated to the Plum Blossom Sword Saint.
Tang Gunak sighs tiredly. He could never get a straight answer from his son whenever he asked about his odd obsession with Mount Hua's hero. Through the years, he's learned to brush it off as another eccentricity of his son.
The one time he ordered Tang Pae and Tang Zhan to remove their brother's shrine, they both ended up needing immediate medical assistance because of how viciously Tang Bo had attacked them for 'desecrating' his altar.
He thinks it's such a shame that Tang Bo refuses to partake in his siblings' training, but despite his adamant refusal, his son's core is still one of the strongest among his siblings.
And one of the purest too, it suddenly comes to Tang Gunak's mind as he watches Chung Myung cheerfully chug down another bottle of alcohol.
It feels almost wrong how easy it was to compare Chung Myung's core with his son's despite them being on vastly different spectrums while having equally well-known namesakes from their respective family and sect.
On one end in the dark, there was Tang Bo who quietly cultivated his core as he whispered quiet mutterings to his altar and refused interactions with people unnecessarily. And on the other was Chung Myung, who was at the forefront of Mount Hua's rise.
It was admirable, truly.
Tang Gunak would say so as much if it weren't for the sudden killing intent he could feel directed at him.
Standing outside right in front of the window with no subtlety whatsoever was his son, Tang Bo. His face was pressed against the window panes and Tang Gunak only realized then how threatening of an aura his son could produce.
Chung Myung wiped the drips of alcohol away from his lips and cast Tang Bo an amused look, "Aren't you going to finally let him in?"
Tang Gunak would have if he didn't know that his son would begin to antagonize him the moment he's let into the room by monopolizing Chung Myung's attention and looking smug about it. It happened during their first meeting in the dining hall so Tang Gunak wouldn't be surprised if it happened all over again.
He would lean overly into Chung Myung's space and call him 'hyung' with an exaggerated tone despite being the older of the two. And much to everyone else's bafflement and discomfort, Chung Myung wordlessly let him.
While Tang Gunak was glad that his son finally deemed it alright to leave the confines of his room, he isn't sure if the change in obsession from the Plum Blossom Sword Saint to Mont Hua's Divine Dragon was a fair exchange.
Tang Gunak watches as Chung Myung makes his way to the window and leans against Tang Bo from the other side.
Tang Bo's face noticeably softens as his gaze shifts toward the younger man and it twists a strange part of Tang Gunak's stomach to watch the same thing happen to Chung Myung's face.
Said man taps against the glass pane, "Stop being so intense. You're freaking your dad out."
His son grumbles while tossing him another stink-eye—Tang Gunak has gotten his fair share of those this past week ever since these two struck up a sudden close friendship. His gaze turns petulant as he returns his attention to Chung Myung.
"What is it about me making friends that you hate so much," Chung Myung rolls his eyes in exasperation.
"My father doesn't want you to be 'just friends'."
Tang Gunak would be more offended by the vitriol in the way Tang Bo called him his father if he weren't distracted by the weird tone his son spoke the last phrase.
Tang Bo takes a look at the mutual confusion on Chung Myung and Tang Gunak's faces and isn't sure if he's thankful or annoyed that he's surrounded by painfully emotionally oblivious people.
Less competition but, at the same time, it's sometimes too embarrassing to watch the way Tang Gunak unconsciously acted around Chung Myung in private.
Tang Bo narrows his eyes. It's been more than a lifetime, surely his feelings will reach Chung Myung faster than his father's does. Right??
#not sure who i want to win between tang bo and tang gunak#actually you know what make it fun and have tang zhan swoop in out of nowhere HAHAHAHA#thank you so much for this prompt! sorry it took me so long ily <3#tangchung#tangcheong#tang gunak x chung myung#rotmhs#rotbb#return of the blossoming blade#return of the mount hua sect#tin writes#my ask hole#anon

Hi idk how full your inbox is but I’d like to ask for Makima with a  Chihuahua like reader (short and agressive and bratty basically) could it also be nsfw also thank you
Woooo! I've been thinking about this one for a bit. Makima is just like the perfect person for a brat, you cannot tell me otherwise. I made this sort of toxic because I honestly believe that any relationship with cannon Makima is gonna be fucked up in some way. If yall want non-toxic just say that in the request.
Makima x Bratty!Reader NSFW
"Do you enjoy you life, little red? Do you enjoy the things I buy you and the way I treat you?"
Makima enjoyed asking rhetorical questions a lot, especially when she was mad. That usually means you had to make her mad first, and despite her calm demeanor: it's fairly easy to anger her. A few snide comments here, a few too rough arm pulls there, maybe you decided to play around with Power or Denji.
In the end, you fucked up in some way, you fucked up so badly that she's completely lost it. Although...you enjoy that dont you? You enjoy when Makima has to grab you by the neck and practically hurl you into another room. You love when her hands find their way up your skirt; it's a warning, it always is.
Makima is by no means a kind woman. In fact she's the complete opposite of kind, she's mean, harsh, rough, and fucking cruel. Makima us a naturally sadistic person -not with everyone, you just fucked up somehow and she knew you were the one.
Now that you think about one of the subtlety not so kind things shes done is give you a nickname. "Little red". To her it's a way of making fun of you. You're easy o annoy(not that she isn't either because of you) and you face gets red when you're mad. The "little" part is solely because of your height, she enjoys reminding you every so often.
"If I pull out the gag will you respond the right way?"
You were essentially being told to watch your fucking mouth, or else. And you, ever the fucking idiot: didn't think twice when the ball gag was taken out.
"I thought you'd be angrier, I guess you really have gone soft, Miss Control Devil."
Oh, now you remember how you got here: you continued to run your mouth after she gave you two strikes.
The first strike was because when Denji told you that Power let him grope her. You very loudly said, "Wow I wonder if she'll let me do it too?!"
Of course you wouldn't, you're not Denji, you value your and Powers too. That was all it took though, you knew Makima was watching, she was always watch you. And when you were called up to her office and told to sit in a corner, and help her do paperwork for an hour you wonder if you made the right choice.
The second strike was not long after, you decided you were thirsty and begged Makima to let you grab a drink from.the vending machine downstairs. After you were pleading for ten minutes: she relented.
You practically ran downstairs, but once you were down there you realised you were alone. You remembered that there was a nice coffee shop not too far from here, she wouldn't mind if you got her something right? You went straight to the coffe shop, you knew by now there was something watch you. Not that it mattered!
"Maki! I got you a drink-please don't be mad!"
Were the first words that left your mouth once you walked in, and as you set the drink down you felt a small warmth in your stomach. That look, she's mad, not pissed but you're sure as hell in trouble...maybe. And of course that look turns you on, she looks so fucking hot when shes mad. When she looks like she wants to eat you alive.
If there was one thing in the relationship between you two that you hated it was your beight difference. Makima isn't all that tall, and yet you're right at chest level. Sometimes it's hot, sometimes it's fun. Other times you remember just how fucking intimidating she can be.
"Hey...so y'know I never noticed how tall-"
"Strike two. Give me the drink and get back to the paperwork."
You put the drinks down and feel a hand on your arm, Makima gently pulls you closer. Until you're in her lap and your head is pressed ever so gently to her neck. You smile when you feel her kiss your neck, at the end of the day you matter most.
"Do you enjoy patronizing me? Or are you mad because of the. . .Denji thing?"
That's what you labeled it, and you refused to refer to what she's doing as anything else.
"Oh no, I mean give him all the attention you want. I was talking to Quanxi though-"
That did it, you were flipped over and slammed into the part of the desks without the drinks on it. You could feel the murderous intent coming off of her.
"Really? Her. Is she the hill you wish the be killed on, little red? I can assure you it will happen if you keep this up."
You tried and failed to turn your head, instead just giggle like a little girl.
"Oooh, is she a threat to you or something? I mean she and her girls are hot but-"
Makima flips you over so you're facing her, if looks could kill you'd be dead thrice over. You smile, this- this is what you needed for days. And finally she's giving it, finally.
You open your eyes, coming back to here and now.
Yeah that got you dragged onto her desk. You feel a hand wrap around her neck roughly; she's doing this to test you limits. Makima presses her body against yours, she looks at you for a few moments. Finally taking time to admire her handiwork, you look so fucking beautiful.
A red-ish orange rope was wrapped beautifully around your skin, the rope held your hands and arms back as well as wrapped around your tits. You weren't naked, but seeing as you were in a nice set of lingerie Makima buys for these occasions, you aren't exactly dresses either.
Within it all you were originally wearing a red ball gag that was now covered in spit. And the best part? A small, ruby red plug was set inside your ass. And of course a small bullet vibrator that Makima had set to one, although now she's regretting not just leaving it on five and walking out.
"Every. Single. Fucking. Time. I think were making progress, and then you go a do this. At this point I feel inclined to ask: do you enjoy being punished?"
You knew the answer just as much as she does: fuck yes. Makima wants to hear it, she wants the words to leave your tear stained face. C'mon say it for her, wont you?
As you begin to answer, Makima turn the vibrator up to three. Oh, she wants you fucked.
"Y-yes!"
Makima looks down with a smile, she's enjoying this past sexual gratification. She enjoys seeing you so dependent on her, so needy. And despite how much you act out: you'll be in her bed each nice. So it doesn't matter anyways.
"Yes what, little red? I need specifics."
Oh this bitch.
"F-fuck you, you can't make me say shit!"
That did it for her. Makima backs away slowly, her hands going to her temples. She looks back and you and then the clock in the room, she has a meeting and an hour. That's plenty of time to handle this. But before that-
"What's your color?"
"Green."
One word, yet it completely determines how this hour will go.
"Good girl, good girl. If only you could respond this swiftly all the time."
Makima takes a few things from her desk: a bigger vibrator, a blindfold, and a strap-on.
"Remember, what happens next is your fault, little red."
I'm sorry it's not great, I just wanted to finish this as soon as possible!

Oil is Thicker Then Blood (Part 66)
“You made it! Good, I was beginning to worry you two wouldn't show.” Khan smiled and let them both through, Lizzy looking up and around at the decorations and grimacing while V rolled her eyes. As they came through the door, Lizzy quickly pulled away from V, as if trying to hide the fact she was doing it at all.
“Oh that option was tempting, but free food is free food.” V replied, eyes drifting first over to Thad and Tera, then to N and Uzi.
“Is this everyone?” She asked, an eyebrow raised as if she was unimpressed, Lizzy leaned on the counter by the food, smirking lightly.
“Probably, the tiny grape doesn't have many friends.”
“Bite me Lizzy.” Uzi immediately replied, though she noticed that she'd used the word grape instead of freak. It was still an insult, but one far less potent or personal.
“What, I'm here aren't I?” Lizzy pointed out, looking over at Uzi, who was looking up at her with the world's most unamused expression, arms crossed and eyes in the formation of the classic Doorman glare.
“Only to make my life miserable.”
“Hm, never insulted your intelligence, Doorman.” Lizzy snapped back sarcastically, causing Uzi to growl and step forward only for N to subtlety grab her hand and squeeze.
“Whatever…” Uzi grumbled, trying to ignore Lizzy and instead focus on what her daughter was doing, which was nibbling on Thads fingers while he talked to Khan, thankfully, it didn't seem to be enough to hurt him, or even have him notice.
“Happy Birthday, purple toaster.” V came up to her, an aluminum chip already in her mouth that she was chewing on, her tone was sarcastic, but somehow genuine at the same time.
“You know my name V. I've heard you say it.” Uzi replied, deadpan. Even so a small smirk began to play on her face, her favorite person to rile up was here…
“You have no proof.” V hummed, clawed hand on her hip and she leaned down to Uzi's level, Uzi's smirk, if anything, grew wider.
“You're the one who carried me aalllll the way home when I was injured. Face it murder girl, you found a nanospark in your cold dead core to care about me~” She teased, making V pull back with a slight dusting of a gold blush of embarrassment.
“Ew, never in a million years.” She grumbled, but it held no malice behind it, V huffed, then her eyes went hollow and she turned towards Uzi again, the smaller worker could hear her olfactory sensors activate several times, before V pulled back.
“You smell weird.”
“Oh well thanks, that's not rude at all.” Uzi replied, feeling slightly insulted but mostly freaked out, could V smell that there was something different about her? That was concerning…
“I didn't say bad, I said weird. You sick or something?” V replied, looking up at N and finding he had a very guilty look on his face that he was trying hard to mask.
“Nope, maybe your nose is broken from smelling yourself all day.” Uzi bit sarcasticly, she wasn't sure why V was suddenly acting so weird, but it was probably best she tried to throw her off.
“Ugh, fine, drop dead from some weird virus for all I care.” V grumbled before sauntering off towards Lizzy and immediately locking her into a conversation.
“Alright, now that everyone's here, I have something to say.” Khan cleared his throat and straighted his posture, standing behind the counter while everyone looked at him.
“Thank you all for being here, I know that my daughter struggles making friends… so it means a lot that you're all here.”
Lizzy and V snickered, Uzi ignored them.
“Today my daughter, my little girl, turns 19. It seems like only yesterday that she was running around the house with my wrench, hitting everything in sight.”
Ugh… Uzi wasn't sure how much she wanted anyone in this room to hear about how she was when she was little, er - littler. She definitely didn't want Lizzy to have any more blackmail material… though at this point she wasn't even confident Lizzy would say anything about it.
“But now I have a lovely granddaughter, and someone that I hope, and anticipate, I can call ‘son’ soon enough.” He side eyed N, who turned a bright golden and looked away, feeling eyes all over him.
“Seriously, just propose already.” Khan smirked, making N cough and stare down at the floor while the rest of the room chuckled at him. Uzi looked up at him with a half-embarassed smile, which he returned.
“Happy Birthday Uzi, and I'm so happy I get to be here… to see this part of your life.” He finished, clapping for her, which only half the room returned, with V only doing it half-heartedly and Lizzy doing nothing but nodding slightly.
“Speaking of… parts of our lives.” N began after everyone settled down, making Uzi's breath immediately catch in the back of her throat, oh, oh robo-god they were doing this now? She wasn't sure if she was ready!
“We have an announcement to make.” Everyone's eyes were on them now, N rested one of his large hands on her shoulder, doing his best to ground her, she took a deep breath, okay, okay, she could do this, it was just saying a few words.
“Uzi?” He looked down at her, smiling gently. She looked out at all her freinds (or y’know, close enough) and family and steeled herself, closing her eyes for a moment.
“I'm-I'm pregnant.” She blurted out, feeling that if she waited any longer then she'd loose her nerve. She looked at Khan first, his jaw was on the floor, his eyelights hollow and his fists balled onto the counter.
V was the first to say something.
“That's why you smell so damn weird! I knew something was off!” She growled, before the actual situation caught up with her, and then she looked a mixture of shocked and pissed; “Do you two ever think things through?!”
Uzi winced, that was a reaction she had expected… but didn't want. And it only added to the pit of uncomfortable emotions swirling in her stomach.
“V! It wasn't a decision, It just… happened!” N was there, backing her up. It was just a rehash of their argument of Tera's adoption, only now V seemed more upset, and N more defensive.
“Oh! Like an unplanned pregnancy is so much better!” V was spitting venom, and Uzi felt the ball of discomfort tighten, this was… not going well.
She looked back at her Dad, who looked back at her with his mouth trying to move but nothing coming out, she hugged herself, this was a nightmare.
“Okay! Everyone stop!” Everyone was surprised when it was Lizzy of all people to break up the chaos in the room, making V shut up instantly and N real back slightly.
Lizzy walked up to Uzi, at first, she thought she was about to get laughed at, or even some insult that would hit a little too hard in her vulnerable state.
Instead, she was wrapped in a tentative hug from the pink worker, shocking her so much that her mouth fell open.
“U-uh.”
Lizzy pulled back, not saying a word. She looked embarrassed mostly, mixed with some sort of irritated and empathetic.
“Look you don't like me, I haven't given you a reason to. And I don't really like you, for like… way shittier reasons. I'm working on it.”
“But no one should be yelling at you or giving you shit.” She turned to V, who looked like she'd just got her tail caught in a door, because she instantly looked away and crossed her arms.
“Thanks… I guess.” Uzi was still wondering if she had passed into an alternate dimension somewhere in the last few minutes.
“Yeah.” The pink worker responded, looking down at the floor for a moment, before smiling ever so slightly. Clearly not meant to be seen.
“Don't get used to it, just don't want a pregnant woman to be yelled at.” She flipped her hair and walked away, leaning back onto the counter where she made eye contact with V, who looked guilty for the first time in her life.
“Congrats Dudes!” Thad immediately cut through the somber reactions with his own extremely positive one, Tera laughing as the drone holding her got excited. Uzi let out a breath, and so did N.
“Thank you, kinda figured your reaction would be positive.” Uzi laughed lightly, still feeling a little down from how nightmarish this had gone, she hadn't even gotten to the weird part yet…
“Well duh! More kids to teach sports too! Right little football?”
He lifted Tera up while she squealed in delight, raising her little arms as if they were wings and she could fly away with them.
Uzi turned back to her Dad, who was slowly closing the distance between them nervously, he gave her a wary smile before opening his arms to invite her in for a hug.
She sighed in relief and accepted it, her dad petting down her head while she felt him take a steadying breath.
“I can't say I'm not surprised. You're 19, that's so young dronelette.” He said quietly as he pulled away, looking at her with worried eyes.
“But… if you're happy with your choices, then so am I. Heh, you're only a year younger then your mom when she got pregnant with you.” He admitted, rubbing the back of his head awkwardly.
Huh… she did not know that.
“So… when can we expect them to be printed? I assume you've known for awhile.” Khan asked, putting a hand on her shoulder, as sweat appeared on Uzi's visor, right… the weird part.
“Yeah… uh, thats the thing, they're already being printed, uh… in here.” She pointed at her midsection, and everyone seemed to look at her like she'd spontaneously grown a second head.
“What?” Everyone said at once, but this they had prepared for, N handed Khan the scanner first, showing what the inside of Uzi's midsection looked like, and the now larger mass within, it looked a bit like a potato, and was about half the size of one too.
“Oh my- how is this possible?” He asked as he handed it off to V, who also looked at it like she was about to pass out.
“We think the solver has something to do with it… I'm very organic now… so…” Uzi replied, not exactly sure how she felt about people looking at a picture of her insides.
“Your mother also had… the solver, you call it? Her pregnancy was normal, we transferred you to a shell after you were done in her core.”
Well… that made her feel even weirder, but N was still pressed up against her back, doing his best to calm her down.
“Well… I'm partly organic too. And I'm pretty sure I'm connected to it too in some way, maybe that's why?” N suggested, gesturing to himself, mainly, his organic core.
“I wouldn't know, is the baby-?”
“Healthy, and still in the core.” Uzi interrupted, feeling anxiety eat at her.
“It says here it's made out of normal drone material, so it's not like it's going to be some… mass of flesh or whatever.” Lizzy interrupted, handing of the scanner to Thad.
“Gnarly” Was all he said. Which Lizzy rolled her eyes and punched his shoulder for.
At that, V seemed to visibly relax, sighing while looking Uzi up and down.
“Are you eating enough?” She asked, startling the both of them it seemed, but Uzi just answered the question without calling her out on it, for once.
“Yeah I am now… there was an incident where I almost ate somebody I was so hungry… but I didn't!”
V snickered, nodding her head almost in pride while Lizzy looked horrified. “Who?!”
“Chloe”
Then Lizzy looked decidedly less horrified. “Almost wish you did, she's a bitch, even compared to me.”
“Yeah…” Thad agreed, and V laughed out loud at the groups mutual agreement.
“Oh damn, now I have to meet her if even Mr. Chill thinks she's bad.”
Uzi felt herself relax, despite not going so well at the start, they were actually taking the weird part exceptionally well.
It looked like things were turning out okay.

tw ~~ smut. size kink if you squint a little. please do not read if these are triggering to you. (also this hasn't been proofread yet, so bare w me!)
eddie would love to put christmas decorations up with you and be so cute and loving while you listen over and over wham!'s last christmas song on your vinyl records.
even though he hates mainstream stuff, he would just love and adore watching you dance around with your cute winter themed pjs. something about you being so happy with so little would make his little heart flutter every time.
it's all fun and games until you're hanging the mistletoe and ask him for your help. poor little thing that can't get anything done by herself he thinks. you just sounded so so sweet asking him for his help, he couldn't resist.
to put it bluntly, sometimes he would be lazy and not get up from the too-comfortable sofa, he might not be the most active human on earth, but anything that would make him stop listening to that same song over and over again, he's in. in reality, he's really loving, he's always trying to make sure you're comfortable in absolutely any environment you both guys are. with his friends? he makes sure you're comfy, grabbing your hand with his plush one and interlocking your fingers, waiting for you tighten his hand back as a response if you're not comfy ...sometimes their jokes can become a little too much. they think it's a little PDA, but he doesn't care, cause he loves you. more than anything in this world, and he needs to protect you at all times. whether you're with his friends, your family, your friends... he always makes sure that you're comfortable. and whenever he notices you're not, he tries to make you feel warm and if it doesn't work, he drags you out and takes you to his trailer to cuddle and kiss you until you feel safe in his arms again.
'eeeds!' you whined. maybe he didn't hear you the first time, so you tried again. but oh he did. 'teddy... please' again. no response. there was something about hearing you beg for his presence that lit something inside him. he's being awfully quiet and that screams there's no good coming from him. but you didn't see that coming, trying to figure the best way to hang up the mistletoe without falling and breaking all of the decorations that were put aside you. you feel a hand on your hip & suddenly all your problems are solved. big boy to the rescue!
'woop- my bad. didn't see you!" you're jumpy at this point, everything so silent but the record on the vinyl starting again, plus, you didn't see his hand coming. 'gotcha, little thing.' he replies, with a smug on his face like he's the most strong boy to walk on earth.
'oh no!' you pout. focused so sharply on the nickname he gave you. little thing, little thing! that you didn't even notice all the christmas decorations had fallen to the floor and now... well they were spraying all around.
'don't worry, pretty girl. don't worry your pretty head about it.' what was he doing! you were so reddened up at this point. all the nicknames had a serious affect on you, and deep down he knew that, he was just playing around & dumb. whenever you're nervous, your mouth acts before your brain can think, so you ask 'eds?' there's a silence. he knows what you're going to ask him.
crickets.
'hm. yes?' his back was now turned. he was squatting trying to clean up all the mess you made. 'uh, don't worry. never mind, teddy. let me help you.' and as you were about to bend to try and help him, he subtlety caressed your thigh, covered with the onesie pjs you were wearing. stopping you and letting you know that he was fine picking up everything, feeling guilty about laying in the sofa while you were so adorable and excited about hanging up the lights.
'oh, o-okay' you stutter. you guys were dating since the summer, although you had known each other since the start of the year. the first time he landed his eyes on you, he saw this coming. he knew you both would get along well, even though it might not look like it. you were so good girl, good grades, sweet thing... and he was just eddie, rocker boy, the drug dealer.
'you sure you dont wanna ask anything, baby?' you nod with your head a no, looking down at your feet. he was trying to make you feel small. he was succeeding.
now, the mistletoe was finally hung and all the mess was cleaned but something was missing. the tradition is that you need to kiss your loved one under it, to last through eternity with them. right at this time, you forgot what was the point of even hanging it, questioning every decision you've made until this very moment. 'so' eddie takes the lead and breaks the silence. while he gets up and looks down at you, asks 'now that we've hung this, are you going to give me a kiss under this or do i need to tell you that you need to give me a kiss under this?' he was being really forward today, not trying to waste anytime as he grabs your chin with his thumb and index finger as he makes you look up at him.
'sorry eds. wanted to kiss you since you've put you hand on me. 'm sorry i didn't do anything.' you made your best effort in putting into words how you were feeling right now, your world falling apart.
'no need to apologise, princess. c'mere.' and believe it he was so fast on putting and dragging his hands all over your body. once your lips crashed into each other, he was making sure his hands felt at least once every inch of your body. 'hm- oh' you whine as his kisses drag down little by little, connecting with that sweet spot on your neck. that sweet noise he thinks. how did he get so lucky.
'what was that, pretty thing?' you freeze. you were so into it you didn't realise that noise actually came out of your mouth.
'n-nothing. sorr-' 'baby, there's no need to apologise. was i making you feel too good, hm?' you eyes were shining, you were looking up at him in awe. 'aw, you can't even speak, can't you?'
'yes' he takes your face with both of his hands and drags them down until they meet your pretty neck. all ready for him to leave his marks over it.
'yes, what?'
you were put in your place, you knew the game was starting and so decided to join. 'yes, master' you looked up at him innocently, batting you eyelashes at him while his cock grew harder and harder inside his pijama pants.
'that's my good girl." and the rest is history! ♡
wanted to post a christmas special quickly! sorry if this feels kinda rushed, it is :( i still have some exams left but i wanted to post! enjoy bbs 💘 take care. love u so much 💞🎀

The last cry of faith
One shot- Optimus Prime Part. 2
The reader is human
Human x Cybertronian
Enjoy! I'm sorry if any translation is wrong. My first language is not english.This fic was originally written in spanish. Please understand (o´・_・)っ
Part 1 is now available:
I was afraid, afraid that I would make a mistake and not find the right words to save my own species, so I took one more deep breath and wiped away my tears before we boarded Bumblebee.
"I only have one chance, don't I?" My heart was beating hard and fast. I didn't know what I was going to face.
It was a huge burden trying to start a conversation with a normal person for me, now here I am trying to take on a responsibility as big as talking to the leader of the Autobots to try to mediate and save both species.
"Let's do this, Bee." I bravely took the wheel and let him drive.
__________________________
What if I make a mistake in my words? What will I say? What abandoned me and made me feel terrible in her absence? That I got depressed believing that he wouldn't remember me anymore?
I thought about my arguments over and over again, rephrasing my words so as not to fall into impulsiveness or anger.
Quintessa would take full control over Cybetron if Unicron perished, they explained to me that if Optimus did not give the direct order, it would be too late to avoid changing the fate of both planets. Lennox tried to mediate with Optimus before but he refused to do so.
When he heard my name he avoided doing any action that he denied to know that he needed me there, that's why they came to look for me.
I was breathing hard because my anxiety was bigger than my own height, Brains moved to the copilot's seat to try to calm me down and Bumblebee played relaxing music to dissipate my nerves as we arrived at the base. The trip didn't last long.
I could see the figure of Lennox and his team around the base and they spread out when Bee parked.
This was the moment where I asked for a little faith and luck for myself.
If there's someone looking out for me on the other side, it's time for you to do your job and back me up a little this time.
I looked at the two little autobots before they got out and I unbuckled my seatbelt and my hands were shaking. Lennox noticed my presence and opened the door for me from the outside.
I looked at him with teary eyes and hugged him. My soul needed human warmth and Lennox was able to give it to me; Even when he followed orders our affection was mutual.
"I thank you for coming." He caressed my back with his hands. —But there is someone who needs to talk to you in there.
—I know.
Our hug ended and he accompanied me to the entrance of the base, I could feel his men's gaze on us as if we were the only solution to this and I entered alone.
This was the moment I had been waiting for all this time and my nerves were on edge. Still I was determined to do it and I walked.
As the soles of my shoes hit the ground with my steps, I heard metallic movements on the other side of the base. Optimus knew he was here.
I didn't have time to fix my image, I was a mess and so was my face after crying so much, I only faced my fate when I saw the silhouette of Optimus between the shadows and the subtlety of the moonlight that was reflected in the windows. and in its metal armor.
He turned to see me.
I tried to smile when his optics met my tired eyes.
He could see the sadness in Optimus's features.
—Is this how all this will end? Is this the end of us, Optimus?
Optimus looked away, I think I was too hasty starting that way. I just wanted to follow my soul and say what I wanted because I wanted to hear what he had to say too.
—You had no reason to come, and you decided to do so. "I didn't ask you to do it," Optimus said.
—I came because I thought you needed us to talk about us, about ours. I didn't come to talk about the decisions you make, you are free to do what you want, but this is necessary for both of us.
—It was I who abandoned you, I could have made things turn out differently and they didn't. I will never forgive myself for it.
I wanted to cry, I wanted to yell at him, I wanted to vent about everything he put me through, but I knew I had to refrain from falling into despair.
—I thought I was protecting you by leaving Earth. My absence only brought you more problems, however the choices that your leaders have made by continuing to go against me...—He leaned forward to try to be at my level—are the ones that caused our alliance to immediately end.
—And what about us? —I'm sure when I saw his optics they were much brighter since the last time I saw him. —Wasn't I good enough for you?
Optimus wasn't used to talking about his feelings. Not in front of others and much less when the end of the world is approaching, but we both knew that this was our only opportunity to confess everything we had pending.
—You were more than I would have wanted. You waited for me and I failed you.” Optimus lowered his head. “I thought you would be better off without my presence.”
—Will you only say that? Are you going to lower your head regretting something you didn't even have the audacity to face? —I sought to provoke him to face the feelings he tried so hard to deny. — I was waiting for you for a long time, suffering from seeing you fight, I suffered your death when Fallen appeared and your sudden disappearance when Cemetery Wind and Lockdown were hunting us.
—I tried to get away from you so that you could have a simple human life outside of the risks that came with being by my side. —He tried to explain himself. —I promised that I would protect you at the expense of my spark.
"And I promised you that I would stay by your side no matter what happened!" I shouted furiously.
—I was afraid of losing you! —She screamed with the same intensity. — I tried to get you to safety when Lockdown shot in your direction that time and I failed in my task, I couldn't stand it because I had thought the worst. — Her voice sounded broken. — I couldn't.
—Were you afraid of losing me? Well, you're going to lose me for the second time if Quintessa manages to fry us after you make the worst decision you've ever made in your long life, Optimus!
The tension in the air worsened when Optimus stood up and turned his back to me.
—If you came with the sole reason of persuading me to change my mind, you are failing in your objective.
—I didn't come to change your opinion, I came to talk to you because you didn't care about me.
She looked at me quickly as if she had offended him and I backed away when she started heading towards me, but I knew she wouldn't hurt me.
—I care more about you than you think, what should I do so you can understand it!?
— Love me with all your strength! Without shame, without denials or objections! Without abandoning me!—I felt my cold tears running down my cheeks when I said that. Inside me I was imploring him to stop being corny but my soul had to say it without stammering.
He was stunned by my request. I think it was too much, but I decided to continue.
—You are the great Optimus Prime! The leader of the free galaxy! Not even so free because he doesn't even have the freedom to be loved!
I felt his gaze on my little existence, a breath of air came out of his mouth and he shook his head.
—I would give anything to love you the way you ask me, but I'm not a human. I am-
—You are Optimus Prime! "The only one I've had the chance to call my own hero in this life because he saved my life!" I interrupted him.
—I am your guardian and I always will be, and no one else will be.
—Then if you want to protect me so much, then do it. Protect me, save me. Save us but don't do it for them...—I was referring to the humans who had hurt us in the past.—Do it for all of us who decided to fight and be by your side. — I paused. —Do it for me, because my faith in you is still intact.
A silence reigned for a few moments.
—We all have something in common in this universe, which unites us. —He continued- But what keeps me alive in this life is you.
Optimus leaned up again and took my chin with his finger as he brought his face closer to mine.
—Do you still have faith in me?
—I never lost her, Optimus! —Something in me made me rush to his face to hug him. My tears fell on the panels of his face. "Never even if my heart stopped beating..." I said sobbing.
He covered me with his hand and pressed my body against his face, as if it were a shield.
It was the first time in a long time that I could feel his embracing and protective warmth.
—I will not let you down or abandon you this time. —He whispered —I promise you...
I felt like the minutes were eternal with his hug.
These had been the best minutes I had spent with him in my entire life, I just prayed that fate would give me the opportunity to have more moments like this.
Only then could I be in front of the Optimus I fell in love with, without fear that he or I would feel judged or regret our union.
"With all my spark," he finished.
_________________________________
I left through the door of that base.
When Lennox saw me I nodded, it was done. Optimus had given the order from his communicator to the autobots to begin the attack plan and save Earth again.
The hatch to the base opened and Optimus emerged in his alt mode waiting for me at the open driver's door.
I closed the door.
—Thank you.— I smiled and he advanced.
Lennox also gave the direct order to follow Optimus' plan and boarded Bumblebee.
After all... There was a small glimpse of light in the darkness and a last cry of faith that changed the destiny of humanity.

Congratulations on 100 followers!!! For the event, could I request Kaeya x reader using this dialogue: "Are you flirting with me?" "You finally noticed?"
The scenario is essentially that reader has been pining for Kaeya for a while, oblivious of the fact that Kaeya reciprocates her feelings and so he's been flirting with her for months, with less and less subtlety until finally she clocks in that, yes, the oh-so-charming and handsome and desirable Kaeya Alberich is seriously flirting with her and trying to court her (feel free to decide how exactly she realizes this). Queue some embarrassment on her part, Kaeya being relieved but also taking the opportunity to tease her a little for her obliviousness, then having mercy on her and giving smooches.
I don't know if I got what you wanted, but I tried.
Pairing: Kaeya x f!Reader
Lightly tapping your fingers on the solid wooden door that led to Cavalry Captain Ordo Favonius's office, you pushed it inward and poked your head through the opening.
Kaeya sat leaning over his desk, filling out a report on his latest expedition for Jean. The midday sun was brightly illuminating the room, casting its warm glow over everything, making the captain's blue hair shimmer softly with a cool blue colour. You pressed your lips together to hold back a smile at the sight, and took a deep breath to pull yourself together and took a few steps into the room, hoping that the blush hadn't spread to your cheeks yet.
"Good morning, our most beloved captain," you said, pushing the trolley of tea and dessert in front of you.
Kaeya lifted his head from his papers and immediately smiled the most charming smile possible, but in your opinion, every smile he gave you was like that.
The guy watched you walk softly, as if you weren't walking, but fluttering in the air, walking to his desk, wiggling your lush thighs, which he had dreamed of touching since your very first meeting.
You lowered your eyes in embarrassment, catching Kaeya's gaze as he stared at you every time he came near. Inwardly, however, you reminded yourself each time that this guy probably looks like that at all the girls around him.
"You don't have to bring me a snack right into the office," the guy said and pulled his hand back and rubbed his neck to somehow hide the excitement of your presence.
"And every time I answer that this is my personal whim," you answered deliberately cheerfully, and laughed nervously stopping at the side of the Captain's table.
"Then at least let me help you."
Kaeya got up from his seat and reached for the saucers on which the tea cups were at the same time as you and it so happened that your fingers touched each other.
The soft light reflected on your hands as your fingers gently came together at a casual touch. For a few seconds, they felt a faint electric charge penetrating through their skin. The touch was short-lived, but it burned a spark between you, making the air in the room seem to crackle with tension. Kaeya met your gaze, and there was a flicker of surprise in his blue eyes, turning into something deeper.
You flinched in surprise, dropping the cup from your hands. Fortunately, Kaeya managed to catch her before she broke, but the firm touch of his fingers on yours left a pleasant warmth, to which you instinctively reached out again.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to…" You murmured, looking into his eyes and noticing how his pupils widened when his gaze slid over your lips. He put the cup down on the table and ran his hand through your hair.
"It's okay, honey," his voice became low and hoarse, making goosebumps run over your skin, "you're so clumsy, but there's a charm to it too."
Your heart was beating so fast that it seemed ready to jump out of your chest. Kaeya has never talked to you that way. There was something different in his eyes when he looked at you.
"You're kind of weird today… The other one," he remarked, his breath fanning your cheek.
"I'm just… I'm glad to see you, as always," you breathed, unable to take your eyes off his handsome face.
Kaeya smiled, and there was an expression on his face that you couldn't describe. It was both tender and predatory, as if he was holding back from eating you right there.
"I'm glad to see you too, as always," said the Captain, with a satisfied smile, as he continued to gaze into your eyes.
"Um, Kaeya, I could be wrong, but… Are you flirting with me?" saying those words, your heart was about to jump out of your chest and you almost regretted it, but the guy across from you answered you in a whisper with a question to a question.
"Did you finally noticed?"
And his lips touched yours in a tender kiss.
He pulled you closer and you were on his lap, his arms wrapped around your waist. The kiss became more passionate, his tongue explored your mouth, demanding your answer. You couldn't control yourself. Your hands went to his hair, and you pulled him into an even deeper kiss. It seemed like time had stopped, and only the two of you existed in the world. Finally, Kaeya broke away from you, his breathing was ragged, and his eyes glittered with desire.
"I need to work," he said hoarsely, "but I don't want to let you go."
"I… I don't want to leave either," you whispered, not wanting to pull away.
"Then stay," he said, "now you don't have to give me tea every day to be around."
You smiled and nodded.
"That's right, Captain".

Im so happy the request box is open again /gen
Could i request a fic where MC has an ed (Eating Disorder)?
Im struggling with eating atm and would love to read about the characters (especially Beel) comforting the MC about it
Thats all, have a good day!
Lots of love, anonymous M /ref
Anon, I'm so sorry that you're struggling. Please do your best to practice harm reduction in regards to your specific eating disorder. I hope that you are able to get the help you require.
I also hope that this fic will be a comfort to you. I tried to keep the specifics of the eating disorder vague since there are so many types and I didn't know which you had. There are some mentions of binging and restricting, so I hope that is okay. The format of this was kind of experimental, so I hope it came out okay.
I love you. Take care (to the best of your ability).
MC with an eating disorder
(SFW) (unspecified eating disorder with mentions of restriction and binging) (could be read as platonic) (all characters) (half fic/half headcanons?)
Word Count: +3,900
You couldn’t hide this forever. They were bound to figure it out eventually. The unfortunate thing about being a person is that no matter how careful you were – how hard you tried – secrecy, subtlety, and perfectionism were not without clumsiness. Even if you wanted to hide this from them forever, you were going to slip up – do something suspicious. Most sicknesses have symptoms, and someone will find them.
Or maybe you had a moment of pure courage and decided to tell them: you needed help. Maybe you understood – even if it felt like a lapse in judgment – that the best outcome for your health and happiness would not be achieved alone. You needed someone – some understanding source of love and support.
The truth leaked out to everyone eventually – and eventually seemed to crash into you like the final domino in an elaborate setup. The most knowledgeable and observant of the bunch couldn’t keep quiet for long. It’s hard to bite your tongue when someone you love is suffering.
You were hardly prepared for the talk they all felt was necessary. Barbatos called for a meeting with you “to discuss a personal matter of utmost importance.” To be fair, they all made the decision not to overwhelm you by not allowing everyone to take part in the meeting.
When you arrived at the castle for the meeting (mostly to prevent nosy eavesdropping), Barbatos escorted you into a room with Simeon, Solomon, Lucifer, and – surprisingly – Mammon. Initially, Lucifer had no intention of allowing Mammon into the meeting, but “being MC’s first” and the fact that he had been the one to alert Lucifer to your struggle held enough sway to expand the meeting size to six.
On your long walk back home, during which you were escorted by Lucifer and Mammon in a miserable, awkward silence that Mammon made multiple attempts to alleviate, you couldn’t stop clinging to their words during that meeting.
You couldn’t remember who spoke first – who had the guts to interrupt such a solemn, all-knowing silence. Lucifer or Barbatos? No. They planned this, so maybe they pushed the softest approach on you – forced a tender heart to confirm that the time had come to talk about your eating (or lack thereof). In that case, it was probably Simeon. Your memory was already so hazy. Maybe you shut down and dissociated. Maybe you would remember if your body wasn’t going through hell. Then again, if it wasn’t, maybe you wouldn’t have had to have that conversation.
– Got bad enough for them to notice, I guess? That was a shitty thought to have. The sooner it gets addressed, the better. No one should have to get “bad enough.” You knew that. –
In truth, they had planned ahead, and Simeon was supposed to ease you into the conversation. Mammon couldn’t let him, though. “Ya know, I don’t care how strong ya get. I still think it’s my job to protect ya. You’re sick right now. All tha signs are there. Ya keep hurtin’ yourself doin’ shit like this. I’m doin’ an awful job keepin’ ya safe, so we’re gonna get ya some help. And we’re gonna be right there with ya the whole time. I’m gonna be there – whatever ya need.”
Simeon was relieved that Mammon spoke first – even if it wasn’t the perfect, delicate approach. Simeon had been something he hadn’t been for a very long time: afraid. They all were to some extent – if not afraid, then nervous. However, with Mammon’s interruption, the structured plan crumbled, and they all spoke in cautious yet clumsy intervals. It seemed suitable, then, that the rest of the meeting only existed in messily cut up pieces that you shoved together. Your brain was the young, sickly protégé of Victor Frankenstein and your recall-creature arose as a bloody, poorly constructed monster. There was no chasing this monster off. It clung to your waist and shadowed your every step. It was a sad, hurtful little creature, but there was love in every bone and mass of flesh.
Lucifer had promised to assist with doctors’ orders, keep an eye on your condition, and accommodate you while ensuring his brothers fell in line. What you remembered was the scent of Demonus that lingered on him when he pulled you against him and told you, “Whatever will ease the burden during the hardest parts of your recovery, you’ll have it.” He had had a drink or two to settle his nerves before you arrived.
Barbatos had promised to get you good human doctors – medical and psychological – who specialized in your particular condition. What you remembered was the unfamiliar look of sorrow on Barbatos’s face as he held your hand and promised, “We will prioritize your comfort – no matter how many doctors you have to go through. You’ll get the treatment you need.”
Solomon had offered his magical skills to assist with your commitment to recovery and to ease any pain or side effects that your eating disorder had and would cause. You remembered him gently holding your face and telling you, “I’d never let anyone hurt my adorable apprentice – and that includes you.”
Simeon had offered you a constant and understanding ear to listen. He was the best alternative when you wouldn’t or couldn’t turn to a professional. Simeon had even promised to help Luke and Raphael navigate your recovery as best as he could. You remembered the grave concern on his face – almost frightening – as he told you, “We love you, and you’re hurting. Please let us help you however we can.”
They hadn’t pressured you to explain everything you were doing or understand all of it on your own. They hadn’t even forced you to respond right away. Everything else they had said – and anything you had said – seeped out your ears until you were left with the sound of your own voice giving them one ashamed and heartfelt “okay.”
The conversation probably hadn’t even happened in that order, but it was a hard one to have, and you couldn’t be faulted for jumbling it up.
“Here, take it.” Mammon interrupted the cacophony in your mind by throwing his jacket over your head and gently petting you through the fabric.
You felt something wet running down your cheek. It must have started to rain while you were thinking. No, wait, am I crying? When did that happen? It wasn’t a lot, but a few stray tears escaped you. You tried to blink them away, but now that you had a way to hide, they flowed easier. “Thanks, Mammon.”
You were scared that you would never like yourself no matter what happened, but they loved you, and that was a start.
When you returned to the House of Lamentation, you hid yourself away in the attic where you could cry alone without the protection of Mammon’s jacket. It was getting hot under there, anyway. Despite their attempts, you still felt overwhelmed by the confrontation, and you just wanted to hide from everyone – well, maybe not everyone.
It was a comfort when you heard a soft knock at the door and saw that fluffy orange hair peeking in. “MC, can I come in?”
He found you, and something about that melted your heart, even though you thought you wanted to be alone. You wiped any stray tears from your eyes and cleared your throat. “Yeah, you can come in, Beel.”
Surprisingly, when he sat down next to you on the bed, his lashes stuck to his skin like he had been crying, too. There was a long silence, during which he just stared at you. Sometimes, you liked it when he looked at you. You’d see all the affection on his face and recognize the love behind it. Other times, it made your skin crawl as insecurity squirmed around through your veins like a parasite. You saw everything you deemed wrong with yourself, and there was no way to hide it. This time, it felt different – some slow-cooked stew of guilt and sorrow. You imagined an inflated, tainted feeling of pity in that look where it was absent. In reality, “pity” from Beel used that word in its purest, sweetest form; there was no negativity or disregard – only sympathy and compassion.
Beel leaned down and bonked his forehead against your shoulder, leaving it there. His breath was slow and even, finding comfort in the physical touch, as he built up the courage to speak.
“Do I make your eating disorder worse? I’m always eating and talking about food.”
“No . . . well yes – but no.” Beel pulled back to look at you, doing everything he could to not look hurt and sorry. You felt the cracks in the dam begin to burst. Either you patch them up now, or you lift the gates and relieve some of the pressure. You chose the latter. “You made it easier to hide it. I could give you my food whenever I was restricting, and you were so happy to be fed that you never worried about me being hungry. Then, I got to watch you eat. It was cathartic – watching you do something I couldn’t do. You made it easy to cover up a binge, too. No matter how out of control I felt, I couldn’t make a dent in the amount of food you ate. That kind of made me feel better, but it enabled me. The extra food I ate, the snack boxes and wrappers, the disappearing food – everyone assumed it was all you most of the time. It saved me a lot of embarrassment, I guess, but it didn’t take away the shame. And to be honest, I’m kind of jealous of you. You’re out of control when you eat sometimes, and then you have all the control in the world to work out. But you look amazing, and you seem happy. I can see my impulses in you, and I think, if it was just a little different – maybe if I was better and more disciplined, I’d be more like you and less like me. I know that isn’t how it works; it’s just how I see things.”
You hadn’t expected all of that to come rushing out. Then again, neither did Beel, but he sat there firm and strong through it all. For a brief moment, a cruel and twisted feeling popped into your mind. What is he doing? Is he one of those idiots who stands in the path of a tropical storm because they think they can take it? He’s going to get hurt. Just move out of the way. You knew better than that train of thought. Beel would make himself an immovable structure through all of this if you’d let him. Hell, he’d make the effort even if you didn’t.
You cast your eyes down to the bedspread and the way Beel laid his hands down on it in front of him, with one cradled in the other while he ran his thumb along the side of his hand. “I’m sorry.”
“No, it’s fine,” Beel interrupted. “It’s a lot to process, but thank you for telling me.”
Beel let out a calm, steady breath before standing up. He offered you his hand with a rueful smile.
“What is it?” you asked with your brow furrowed in confusion.
“Do you want to dance for a bit? I know we don’t have music, but I think better when I move.” Beel was embarrassed by the admission – but more embarrassed by the strangeness of his request. He added, “you don’t have to if you don’t want to.”
“We can dance.” You took his hand and let him make the clumsy attempt to lead. He wasn’t close enough nor graceful, but he was trying.
“I’m not very good at this, but I want you to get better. I hope you don’t mind learning together.” He had never had to help someone recover. You had to learn how to get better, and he had to learn how to support that.
“I don’t mind.”
“Even if I mess it up?” Even if he said the wrong thing or accidentally triggered you? Even if he couldn’t protect you every time? Even if you found a new place to hide and he didn’t come find you right away?
“You don’t have to be perfect.”
“Neither do you.” Beel had sharpened his words for that one, and all you could do was give him an apologetic chuckle. “I’m sorry. I just don’t want to lose you.”
“You won’t –”
“– I could, and that scares me. I love you so much. I will still love you during recovery. I’ll love you through relapses. I’ll love you when – and if – you fully recover. There’s nothing wrong with your willpower or your body. You’re sick and hurt. We’ll be okay.” Beel had added the last part for his own comfort before he pulled you closer. He stopped trying to dance and just held you against him, as if to remind you that he was there.
With the professional help came the personal support.
Lucifer keeps track of you and your meds. He checks in with you and your doctor and ensures you take your medication in a timely manner. He removes scales from the house or keeps them safely hidden from you. He keeps his brothers up to date on your recovery plan (with your permission), so that you don’t have to deal with it. He gently pushes you along when he catches you staring in a mirror unfavorably.
Mammon magically removes all the nutrition information – barring ingredients and allergy information – from groceries and snacks whenever someone does the shopping. He also walks you to all your medical and psychological doctor’s appointments. More importantly, he keeps you distracted when you feel bad – movies, games, dancing in clubs, you name it. However, he won’t take you gambling with him anymore, horrified that you might jump from one maladaptive behavior to another.
Leviathan, whose entire existence is antithetical to normie values, musters up the courage to remind you that he thinks you look amazing and that you don’t have to worry about what normies think. He is almost always there to play games with you or read manga or watch anime – especially when binge urges come. He’s happy to spend time with you, so don’t be ashamed of the reason you need a distraction. He makes and buys cosplay outfits for you and spends half an hour hyping you up so that you feel confident – even if you never end up wearing it outside.
Satan helps monitor your nutrition and plans meals that will help you avoid malnutrition. He works especially hard on this during the first few months of recovery and after relapses when it’s the most critical. He reads up on eating disorder treatments and studies anecdotal success stories so that he can help equip you with more tools to ensure your full recovery. He also offers distractions when you need them. Sometimes, he even reads to you.
Asmo compliments you endlessly – almost daily if you let him. He finds cute clothes for you that fit you in ways that make you feel comfortable and look amazing. He does your makeup and hair if you want it – anything to make you feel better about yourself. He’ll take pictures of you if you let him. Hell, he’ll arrange a full boudoir photoshoot for you if it boosts your confidence. Asmo has always been able to find beauty in anyone, so he tries to lean into body positivity and prove to you that there is beauty in every body because being alive is majestic all on its own. It’s equally important what Asmo doesn’t do, though. He stops body checking and talking about diets around you. He diets less, and when he does, he keeps the details of it away from you. This isn’t exactly supportive, but he will offer to praise you in bed and make you feel so gorgeous and so good that your mind has no room for self-doubt.
Beelzebub eats meals and snacks with you – especially when you are having trouble eating. He’s great to have around when you want to try eating something or multiple things off a menu, but you’re worried about feeling the need to keep eating after you’re full. He’s always happy to eat the leftovers. He constantly tells you how happy he feels when he sees you enjoying food with him. He also exercises with you – taking special care to ensure that you aren’t pushing yourself too far. He just wants you to get the movement that supports your health. He probably also teaches you something like boxing to help you release anger and anxiety during your recovery. Additionally, it’s hard for anyone to make you feel weird or bad about your exercise levels when Beel is around to level them if they so much as look at you the wrong way. Alternatively, he also accommodates you by helping you exercise in private (a home gym or body weight exercises; if your mind is in the gutter, that’s fine too).
Belphie walks you home from all your appointments. Mammon could do it, and it’s a lot of effort for him to walk you home, especially when he wasn’t already out and about, but he wants to show you that you are worth the effort. He threatened to curse and beat up Mammon if he didn’t let him walk you home. He likes the idea of you knowing that after a check-up or a draining therapy session, you can expect to see him waiting outside for you. He’s never late, either. He watches the stars with you and reminds you that you are beautiful to him but in the vastness of the universe, your body, your weight, your sense of control – none of it matters as much as you think it does. He is also an anarchist, and that especially includes diet culture. “Fuck society. I just want you to be alive and to take naps with me.” Also, he thinks your body is incredibly comfortable to nap on, but he tries not to actually say that.
Diavolo employs the best doctors he can find for you – with help from Barbatos. He adores complimenting you, so you can expect him to continue reminding you how amazing you are – both mentally and physically. He doesn’t have as much time to spend supporting you, but if he can provide you with any services, he’ll do it. His favorite thing to do is to take you shopping and buy clothes and accessories for you. If you like it and wearing it makes you feel better, he’ll get it for you. It’s a good distraction, and seeing you smiling in outfits that he got for you warms his heart. When he does have spare time, he’ll try to spend it with you so he can check in and see how you’re doing – but also so he can just be around you.
Barbatos offers to make lunch for you sometimes. Once he gets your permission, he makes adorable and appetizing dishes so that when you see them, you’re actually happy to eat them (usually. Some days will just be bad, and there’s nothing more he can do). He listens to you without judgment. He’ll pour you a cup of tea, offer you something to eat, and let you pour your heart out. He also sews outfits specifically for you, using it as an excuse to both provide personal attention and to tell you how incredible and breathtaking you look.
Luke has a surprisingly good grasp on the situation thanks to Simeon, Solomon, and his own reading. He offers to accompany you to the store when you have to buy groceries. He also does activities with you that don’t involve food – mostly games, puzzles, and going on walks. However, if you’re okay with it, he brings you into the kitchen to cook and bake with him (and sometimes with Barbatos, Simeon, and/or Beel). Maybe it’s because he’s younger, but unlike Simeon or Barbatos, Luke has more courage to invite you into a potentially stressful situation for your eating disorder in an attempt to help you establish a healthy relationship with food and cooking.
Simeon is always there to listen – especially once he figures out how to make a proper video call. He also provides you with plenty of distractions. As the author of the bunch, he’s obligated to encourage you to write or journal to help process your recovery (and just for fun). Consequently, you have a lot of chill writing dates. Sometimes that means relaxing in Simeon’s room with him while you both quietly write your own things. Other times, he invites you out to pretty or interesting locations. When you go out, he does everything he can to ensure your comfort. You’re free to bail whenever you feel the need to.
Solomon, like Satan, does extensive research on eating disorders. He’ll go so far as to interrogate other sorcerers about any magic they might know that will help your chances of a full recovery. If a solution exists, he’ll find it. If it doesn’t, he’ll try whatever options he has to improve your chances of living a long, happy life. However, his studying usually happens behind your back. One of the most important things Solomon does is treat you like normal. It can be a comfort. Unfortunately, on the occasion that Solomon offers you food he’s made, when you refuse, he gets worried about your eating disorder. My guy, it’s not the eating disorder; it’s your atrocious cooking.
Thirteen monitors your candle closely, looking for faster or slower burning rates to gauge your health on her own. If something seems off, she knows it’s time to speak up. She brings you adorable and delicious food and drinks – with your permission – and eats with you so that you can try to enjoy food. If you have concerns about drinks and liquid calories, she will try to help you ease that by offering you sips of her drinks and reminding you that it’s okay. If you like the drink, she’ll happily let you have the rest of it. She will also invite you out to eat and, like Beel, she’ll eat whatever you won’t finish. Outside of food, she distracts you by letting you in on her trap building process and bringing you along to test them out. Your laugh when one of her traps successfully ensnares someone is precious to her. She is another good confidant when you need someone to talk to.
Raphael uses his magic to heal you whenever you’re in pain (if eating hurts your stomach, heartburn, if your body is sore from exercise, etc.). He puts blessings on you – sometimes without your knowledge – to help you feel better mentally, too. Like Barbatos, Raphael sews new outfits for you, but he mostly focuses on trying to tailor your existing clothes to accommodate how your body might change during recovery. Some clothes can be irreplaceable, and he wants you to still be able to wear them no matter how you change.
Mephisto is probably the last person to find out, which annoys him. To compensate for being last, he writes up and prints an entire report, highlighting your positive, admirable traits. It’s practically a love letter. However, this one isn’t for the paper, so don’t worry about being perceived by others. In fact, he’d be embarrassed if anyone else found out about it. He just wants you to have a reminder of how amazing you are whenever you begin to doubt yourself. He’ll be more lenient about you hanging out in the newspaper room whenever you want. Although he won’t admit it, Mephisto asked Satan for a list of safe foods and drinks he can keep around that you’ll eat, and now there’s always safe food in the newspaper room.
A/N: This one was kind of heavy, so I'll try to pick a more lighthearted request next time. Also, just as a reminder, you can still provide input for what to do to celebrate the 1 year anniversary next month. Check the post "Input request" for more info (under the tag #moss update)

could you write a steve x fem!reader fic based on little freak by harry styles? thank you!!!
ty for the req!! <3 i hadn’t listened to little freak since harry’s house came out but this prompt rly grew on me :) hope u like it! (1.6K) 🦢 (cw: drinking, smoking, foul language)
A football team of college pricks had invaded the kitchen. You felt bad. In high school, the kitchen was always a haven at parties for chatting and drinking and planning to leave. What you were witnessing felt like the desecration of God’s land.
You were on the counter, where you’d stationed yourself an hour ago. The rowdy group would rotate between flirting with you and rooting through the cupboards and drawers, or roughhousing (which had broken three household items so far), or yelling.
The guy talking to you now smelled like Windex and had calluses on his hands that kept snagging on your tights.
“—and girls always say they like blue collar guys but really they’re just talking about Bruce Springsteen.”
“Mm-hm,” you mumbled a half-hearted agreement.
You’d exhausted your options, and were considering letting Windex take you home. Half of the other guys wouldn’t even talk to you, only shooting furtive glances your way.
“Have you seen how lanky that guy is? He’s never seen a day of work in his life.”
“Uh-huh.” You scanned the crowd, desperate for another chance, but only found two girls eyeing you from the punch bowl. Caught, they scampered out of the kitchen again giggling, their full cups sloshing red onto the linoleum.
“Hey,” Windex pulled your attention back to him. Your face felt warm, and you chided yourself. The girls never used to make fun of you for being liked.
“Hey,” he said again, taking your chin. You tamped down a cringe. “Wanna get out of here?”
This time when you swept the kitchen, hopeless, there was someone standing on the threshold.
There was a fuzzy familiarity about him—the nose, the big brown eyes.
Windex finally turned to see what was distracting you, and his grip on your leg tightened.
“Oh, Jesus. Here comes royalty.”
The other boys in the kitchen noticed him too, and started heckling him. The chaos of their insults made them indecipherable. You caught the stranger’s eye and smiled demurely, but he averted his gaze, and then lurched forward like someone pushed him. A small dirty blonde traipsed in behind him, speaking a mile a minute.
Windex blocked your view with his body, standing between your thighs.
“C’mon, let’s get outta here. I think the rats are moving in for scraps.” He pulled at your legs to slide you off the counter, but you anchored yourself with your hands.
“I think I’m gonna stay a little longer,” you told him, and because your subtlety is nonexistent, your eyes flicked over to the boy and his friend. Windex caught on quickly, glancing between you two and scoffing dryly.
“Right,” he said. “Have fun with that. Just don’t be surprised if his dick is softer than his hands.”
You straightened. “You can go now.”
He threw his hands up in surrender and backed away.
“You guys can give it up,” he shouted over the music and the jeering. “King Steve is here!”
The guys all groaned, dropping everything and abandoning ship.
One of them threw his cigarette into Steve’s brand new cup of liquor and it flamed. Steve jumped back, tossing the drink away from him. You gasped.
“What the hell?” Steve was giving the guy what for? but everyone else was staring at Windex. Steve’s drink was seeping into his flannel shirt, a blotch of brown over the forest-green. Thankfully the flame didn't last, so he was only soggy and unhappy.
“Real nice, bud,” Windex bit out. “My shirt is fucked.”
Steve’s friend spoke up.
“Tell your idiot friends not to make molotovs out of his damn drink, then, bud.”
“Rob, stop. Let’s just go, they were here first.”
“No, please, your highness. She’s all yours.” Windex shot a look your way, and then him and the rest of them went away.
With the guys gone, the typical kitchen crowd started reappearing. Steve and his friend seemed content to lean against the island and people watch.
You assumed she was his girlfriend after a while, but then a pretty redhead appeared and whisked her away, their fingers nervously interlocked.
Steve made his way over soon after.
“Hey.” There’s an art to charming guys, and you were always naturally talented at it. You’d dip your chin and look up through your lashes, and speak just a smidge too quiet so they’d have to lean in to hear you.
Steve, however, didn’t lean in. His mouth pulled into a strained smile.
“Hi.”
“Everything okay?”
“Yeah, um, fine.” He glanced behind you. “Would you grab me a paper towel?”
Twisting around, you found the roll on its spool under the cabinet and frowned. The section tore off cleanly and you slid it across the counter to him.
“I remember you, now,” you said before he could escape. “From school. You’re the ladykiller.”
He blew a breath out and ran a hand through his hair. You remembered that, too.
“That’s not something I’m really proud of.” He winced. “I’m trying to leave it behind.”
A throaty giggle sprang out of you.
“I don’t know if spilling drinks on people is a step in the right direction.” You were joking, but he frowned.
“Yeah, I’m, uh. I’m sorry about that.”
“Are you?” You squinted.
“No,” he said with retroactive irritation. “He was being a prick. They all were. But I’m sorry for you.”
A scoff rolled out of you, slightly affronted.
“Gee, thanks.” You folded your arms and leaned back into the cabinet. “Is this how you charm all the girls? By feeling sorry for them?”
“I don’t do much charming,” he muttered. You raised a skeptical brow. “Anymore.”
Laughing, you lifted your butt to grab the pack of smokes you had stashed away in your back pocket.
“Clearly. I’m starting to think you’re actually here for the paper towel.” Kicking a leg out, you grazed his hip with your sneaker while you pulled a cigarette out.
Steve watched you light it, something churning behind his eyes.
“I don’t get it,” he mumbled, almost too quiet for you to catch. He was shaking his head.
“Hm?” Blowing your first drag out into the kitchen, you relaxed a little further in your perch.
“Just…in school, guys always talked about you like you were odd. Freaky.” He shrugged. “You just seem like a girl to me.”
Your brows pinched, conflicted. “Oh.”
Steve kept eyeing your smoke. When he realized he wasn’t being subtle enough, he turned to gaze out at the kitchen, arms crossed.
“Yknow, I always wondered what you thought of them.”
You looked out into the kitchen, but there was no identifiable person that he was talking about.
“Who?”
Ruffling the back of his hair a bit, he said, “The guys you’d talk to.”
You hummed. Ashed your cigarette onto his forgotten paper towel.
“You mean why I liked them?”
“No, just—” Steve paused. Intrigued, you scooted to the edge of the counter to listen closer.
“Just what you were thinking.” Steve kicked his sneaker into the floor. “You looked kinda far away most of the time.”
A smile crept over your face.
“Yeah, that sounds about right,” you muttered, swaying your feet. You tried to sum your thoughts up without being long-winded.
“I think…they’re bored.” Steve looked at you and you added, “And sad.” Smiling bitterly, you looked away. “Mostly sad.”
Steve's laugh was hollow as he rubbed his cheek with the flat of his hand.
“Yeah. Sounds about right.”
You shared a look, and then shared a silence as you finished your cigarette. When you were done, you stubbed it briskly and leaned forward onto your hands again.
“Hey, so.” You cleared your throat. “I think I’m gonna go. And if I leave on my own, at least one of those guys is gonna follow me. I know you’re not interested, but, um…”
Smiling at him—a real smile, not a simper or a manipulation—you asked, “Do me a favor and walk me out?” Steve looked unsure, so you added, “You can come right back. If you don’t want people to think…”
Nodding slowly, Steve came and helped you hop down. You tried to concern yourself as little as possible with his big hands, with how automatic his decision to help you was. You failed miserably, especially when he started guiding you out by the small of your back.
Windex was shirtless on the couch, talking at a new girl who wore a thousand-yard-stare that rivaled yours. He stilled when you passed, watching the both of you with contempt, but didn’t stop you.
Outside was chilly, being night and near-October in Hawkins. You rubbed your arms over the thin sleeves of your shirt and sucked in a shaky breath. It came out as steam.
“Thanks,” you said cheerily, giving Steve's forearm a small grateful squeeze. “I’ll see you ‘round.”
You probably wouldn’t.
The gravel driveway loomed before you, and you started your trek with a huff.
“What are you doing?”
You spun around to see Steve looking at you, perplexed.
“I’m walking home.”
Steve's face flickered with emotion before he shook his head insistently.
“Uh-uh. Let’s go.” Shoving his hand into a pocket, he produced his keys and started toward a BMW.
“What? Steve, no, it’s fine. I do it all the time.”
The passenger door was already open.
“Get in the car, crazy.”
Shifting where you stood, you found yourself tempted to do just that. You glanced at the house.
“People will think—“
“That’s fine.”
A beat passed between you, and then a cold gust of wind pushed you into the cushy leather seat, and Steve closed the door behind you.
When he slid into the driver's side you asked, “What about your friend?”
He smiled. “She left a while ago.”
“Oh.” Nodding, you relaxed. Steve put the car in reverse and turned the radio up, and you laughed outright.
Springsteen was on.

thank you for reading! 🌝

I dont know how many characters i can request but if you can could you do a vox,valentino and alastor with a reader who always has some kind of bruises on their legs,arms, anywhere!
like reader has no idea where they get them and just shrugs its off haha
thank you so much if you do 💞
A/N: As a person who randomly gets bruises myself, this was really fun to write!
Pairing: Vox/reader, Valentino/reader, & Alastor/reader
Contents: mention of nsfw, fluff, established relationships
Alastor, Vox, and Val with a reader that is always bruised
Work under the cut🤞🏻
♡Valentino♡
The first time he noticed it, was when you both were cuddling after a shoot he had. He brought you close to his body, causing you to wince in pain. He immediately pulled back, asking if you were okay. When he saw the bruises that practically covered your body, he thought that someone else had hurt you. He started asking a million questions at once. Who dared to touch his lover? He would kill anyone that even looked at you the wrong way. When you assured him that no one had hurt you, and that you didn't even know where they came from, he was relieved. But he started up with the questions once more, confused as to how you got so many. When you once again said you didn't know, he shrugged it off but also made sure to handle you easier as to not hurt you more.
🖥️Vox🖥️
It took him a while to notice. He's so busy, and honestly not very detail oriented. But when he'd pulled off your clothes when you guys were having intimacy, he would see your body, and immediately stop in his tracks, a bit panicked. His mind would be racing with questions. Did he do this? Was he too rough with you? Why didn't you tell him? Without him even having to say anything, just by the look on his face you could tell he saw you. You grabbed his wrist and his mind went blank for a moment, waiting for you to speak. When you told him that they just happend, you didn't know how they appeared. He relaxed a bit, but still wanted to make sure you were okay, handling you with care and trying not to harm you or make you uncomfortable. From then on, he made sure to keep an eye on you so you wouldn't be as clumsy.
📻Alastor📻
He'd found out by seeing your arm while you were both out one day. He'd subtlety brung it up, not wanting to jump to conclusions and asked how they appeared. When you'd said you didn't know, he'd laughed and told you that Rosy used to be the same way. Sharing stories about times he'd found them on her, etc etc. Over all he was very chill about it, but when you guys got back to the hotel he made sure to grab you some pain killers and some ice. When you guys went to bed that night, he made sure to handle you gently, regardless of what you'd said. Similar to Vox, he'd made sure to keep an eye on you and try to not let you get in situations that would end up with you that way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YAYYY FIRST WORK DONE!!! I was so happy to see this request, I had to work on it immediately. Thank you so much🫶🏻
I hope you guys like this as much as I liked writing it. My asks are always open for any other requests you may have :]
If you guys want a tag list, lmk!!

Take Care - Whis/Reader
MASTERLIST
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 2.5k
Warnings: Fluff, A sprinkle of angst, Mentions/depictions of anxiety and depression. Anything else is in the tags <3
SUMMARY:
Sometimes it’s easy to forget when to eat or do basic care, but it becomes an issue when it happens frequently. And Whis has started to notice that something is wrong. When subtlety doesn’t cut it, a confrontation is required, and sometimes hidden feelings are revealed in the process.
------
“Nobody has seen you in days,” and he states it like a fact.
Any excuses that I’ve created disappear from my mind, and I have no ammunition against his claim.
“The others have started to notice. They’re—I’m worried.”
I stare blankly, before bursting into laughter. “You? You’re worried about little old me?” I grin and shrug off his hand. “Thanks, but I’m doing perfectly fine. I was planning to visit today.”
“I can see that you’re troubled,” he says, and I squirm underneath his penetrating gaze.
I avoid his eyes and shrug my shoulders. “This is my normal resting face,” I say with a lazy grin.
Whis holds my hands. “Just know that I’m here to help because I care.” He clears his throat and switches topics. “Now, let's get you something to eat.”
NOTE:
Hello! The last time I posted a finished fic on this site was October of last year (°ー°〃)
I did not experience any life-threatening situations. I didn't survive an accident and upload this from a hospital bed on the verge of death as I struggle to type this all out. My life is not that chaotic, and I appreciate that it's 'mundane'
Life happened and I got a bit burnt out. I have other hobbies that also take up a lot of my time and commissions that are prioritized over stories I write for myself.
That being said, this story was a commission and they graciously allowed me to share the fic publically. I don't often write in first-person, but expect any subsequent Whis fics to be in the same format.
Also, just a fair warning that I know absolutely nothing about Dragon Ball other than what I was able to gather from the Wiki and a few clips.
Happy Reading! ヾ(•ω•`)o
“This is delicious. Try some,” Whis says, offering his plate to me.
The squeak of metal cutlery against porcelain pierces my eardrums as I push my food around. It takes great effort to maintain my smile. “No thank you,” I decline. I can barely stomach what I already have. Accepting his offer would be a waste of his kindness thanks to my absent appetite.
It’s not like I didn’t want to eat, but more that I couldn’t. There was no desire for food. And if there were, it would be forgotten once another task consumed me. My limbs ache for the comfort of my bed, weary after a long day at work.
The chatter around me becomes grating to my ears, and every cell in my body screams to run, hide, and be alone. I glance at my friends, admiring their energy compared to my low social battery. The food is tasteless on my tongue, and I set my fork down, forcing myself to swallow the last mouthful.
“Are you done already?” Whis asks, and he almost looks… surprised?
“People normally stop eating once they’re full,” I say, pushing away my plate—still full of food.
Beerus snatches my plate and dumps the contents into his mouth, shrugging at Whis’s look of disapproval. “What? They said they were done,” he says.
I stand up and wave goodbye to everyone. With no remaining evidence of my recent eating habits, they all respond like usual. Some even suggest I take a break from work to hang out more.
The only one who’s different is Whis.
“At least take some for later,” Whis says, handing me a small bundle. I peek inside and see a variety of snacks.
“Thanks,” I say, hoping the exhaustion doesn’t slip into my smile.
The mask doesn’t come off until I arrive home. I set the snacks down on my desk but decided it would be safer to refrigerate them. The bright white light sears into my retinas, and I blink until my vision clears. There’s no competition for space, and the bundle looks lonely in the fridge.
I shut the door and hope I don’t forget about it.
After staring at the list of chores I promised myself I would complete, I opt to just sleep.
The same routine repeats. Over and over—until Whis appears at my front door one day.
“Beerus sent me on a hunt for delicacies, and I absolutely cannot carry it all. I was walking and remembered you live nearby,” Whis speaks behind a tower of food. It’s honestly impressive how nothing has fallen yet.
“An almighty being such as yourself can’t handle a bit of manual labour?” I snark, biting my lip to contain the laughter.
“Even if I can’t see your face, I can still tell you’re making fun of me,” he says. “Will you help me or not?”
I glance behind at the dust building up on my floor and the cleaning supplies that sit abandoned in the cupboard.
“Why not,” I say with a nonchalant shrug, shutting the door behind me. “I can take time out of my busy schedule to help.”
Lies, but they came out of my mouth with such ease. At least today I won’t lay in bed and realize hours have passed in the blink of an eye.
The journey is silent as I balance a stack of cookies and chocolates. But the lack of conversation makes me sweat. Am I being too awkward? Maybe I should say something, but my mind is blank.
“I haven’t seen you at the dinners lately,” Whis says.
I nearly stumble in my steps. “What?”
“Your absence has left a profound emptiness at the tables.”
His face is still hidden behind boxes and bags.
I purse my lips and say, “Work has kept me busy lately.”
Whis’s thoughtful hum fills the gap in our conversation. “Pace yourself. Nothing good ever comes out of overworking,” he says.
I stare at him, unable to decipher his tone. He sounded—dare I say—concerned for my well-being? There’s no way. This is Whis we’re talking about. To him, I hold the same significance as a bug crawling on the ground.
We continue in silence. Worries that I did something wrong plague my thoughts. But Whis makes no further comment and thanks me when we reach his destination. He offers some of the food as a reward.
A companion for the lone bundle that still sits in my fridge.
Life continues in its monotonous cycle, with each morning harder than the last. Some days I’m lucky to even get out of bed.
Working overtime becomes automatic at this point and my attendance at gatherings is now sporadic. Sitting at home, the sunlight reveals tiny particles floating in the air, and laundry has begun piling up in the hamper. Did I remember to shower today?
Despite all this, I can’t bring myself to do anything about it. But seeing myself slide down that slippery slope of neglect further propels my anxiety, which fuels worries over my inability to just get things done. It’s a vicious cycle. Neverending. It leaves me ragged, too exhausted to haul myself out of the depressive pit I’ve dug myself into.
How long has it been since I’ve seen my friends? I need to visit soon; I don’t want to worry them. Otherwise, they’ll come to visit me, and then they’ll see how pathetic I really am.
A knock on my door sends my heart leaping into my throat. I sit up, my limbs tangling in the sheets.
“Is anyone home?” A voice calls out. It’s muffled by the door, but I recognize it immediately.
Maybe if I keep quiet, he’ll go away?
“I know you’re in there. I can sense your presence,” Whis says. A rap knocks against the wood. “Please open the door before I resort to more… intrusive methods.”
I scramble out of bed and run to the door, flinging it open.
Whis’s eyes widen, and he stares at me without a word. He lets out a low whistle and asks, “What happened?”
“Why do you care?” It comes off more snappy than I intended, but I can only beat myself up for it later.
He ignores my question and steps around me to enter inside. “I knew you weren’t eating well lately, but this is… getting out of hand.”
“And how would you know that?” I scoff and cross my arms. Whis is indifferent; it's a core part of his personality. The destruction of entire planets doesn’t phase him. Now he’s going out of his way because I skipped a few meals here and there?
“My powers of observation are quite astute. I deduced something was wrong due to the discrepancy between the amount of food you and other Saiyans consume,” Whis says, placing a gentle hand on my shoulder.
I flinch but do my best not to recoil from his touch. The uneasiness gives way to a comforting warmth. I want a hug, but I’d rather die than tell him that.
“Like I said, work is hectic, and I haven’t had much time to cook or eat,” I say.
Whis doesn’t look like he believes me.
“Nobody has seen you in days,” and he states it like a fact.
Any excuses that I’ve created disappear from my mind, and I have no ammunition against his claim.
“The others have started to notice. They’re—I’m worried.”
I stare blankly, before bursting into laughter. “You? You’re worried about little old me?” I grin and shrug off his hand. “Thanks, but I’m doing perfectly fine. I was planning to visit today.”
“I can see that you’re troubled,” he says, and I squirm underneath his penetrating gaze.
I avoid his eyes and shrug my shoulders. “This is my normal resting face,” I say with a lazy grin.
Whis holds my hands. “Just know that I’m here to help because I care.” He clears his throat and switches topics. “Now, let's get you something to eat.”
The fridge pops into my mind. “I still have those snacks you gave me.”
Whis wrinkles his nose and says, “Those must taste dreadful by now. I’ll have to dispose of them before you attempt to eat any.”
“I wouldn’t eat cookies that have gone bad!”
“No, but you would leave them in your fridge until an entire bacterial colony grew. Let me take care of you today. Go. I’ll prepare a meal while you cleanse yourself.” He waves me off to the bathroom.
I grab a change of clothes, sighing at the laundry that awaits me. “Whis?” I turn to look back at him.
“Yes, darling?” And I swear my heart nearly flops out of my chest. I fight to keep the fire underneath my skin under control.
“Thanks,” I mumble, hiding my face behind my hair.
“Anything for you. Anything.”
And somehow, I can feel that he means it.
I step out of the shower, and the air is cool against my damp skin. I feel better; my thoughts are clearer and less jumbled. The smell of cream and garlic wafts through the house, and I immediately start salivating.
I speed walk to the kitchen, where Whis adds chicken to a skillet and stirs in some cheese. There’s an ache in my stomach, and I can’t remember the last time I felt this hungry.
He doesn’t say much, only smiles and says that it’ll take a few minutes for the sauce to thicken. I watch as he plates the pasta, trailing after him to the dining table.
“Have a seat,” Whis says, patting his legs.
My eyes feel like they’ll pop out of their sockets. “On your lap?” I ask.
“I must ensure you eat an adequate amount.”
I stare at him, waiting for him to say he’s kidding or that it was a joke. But he waits in silence, smiling wider when I stumble over my answer. “Um, well—ok?” I say, sitting down in a daze.
Strong arms wrap around my waist, and Whis’s breath tickles my ear. “I won’t release you until you consume everything on this plate.” His tone is firm, and he teases me with a squeeze.
I’m glad he can’t see my face well. I clear my throat and pick up a fork, twirling a generous amount of pasta before shoving it into my mouth. The milkiness of the cream and cheese, combined with the garlic, makes for a rich sauce that complements the chicken. I can’t contain the content noises as I continue eating.
“Someone’s happy,” Whis chuckles.
“I’m not.”
He hums and leans back. “That’s not what your tail tells me.”
Only now do I notice my tail is wagging back and forth. I have to make a conscious effort to keep it still, willing it to stay down.
“I don’t even like Chicken Alfredo,” I say.
“Then why is it always the first dish you eat when it’s available?”
He’s close. Too close.
His skin feels like ice against mine, and I struggle to hear anything over the thundering of my heart.
“And how would you know that?” I ask, squirming in his hold.
Whis keeps me locked tight in his arms. “Because it would be disrespectful to not know the favourite food of the one I love.”
“You… love me?” I whisper, feeling an ache in the back of my throat.
“I do, and I want you to love yourself just as much. So please let me help. Please confide in me.” He rests his chin on my shoulder, and his presence envelopes me with comfort and peace.
The last wall in my defence crumbles.
It all spills out of me. Everything I went through in the past few weeks, how hopeless I feel, the anxiety that gnaws at my ribcage like a greedy little rat. He listens to me, nodding and offering words of comfort.
“You’ll be alright,” Whis says, stroking my hair. His cuirass is streaked wet with my tears, something I apologize continuously for, to which he reaffirms that it’s ok. “You won’t feel this way forever, and you don’t have to endure it alone. Asking for help is not shameful. I think it’s brave. To ask for help is to admit your faults and acknowledge that you seek improvement.”
“It is?” I sniffle, not wanting to add snot to the mix.
“You have your friends, and, most importantly, you have me,” Whis says. His expression is tender—shy. Can you imagine? The indifferent immortal shy?
I didn’t know he could hold so much affection in his eyes.
I wipe my face with my sleeves, feeling lighter than I have in days. “Can you make me Chicken Alfredo every day then?” I ask.
Whis gives me an incredulous look. “Every day? Won’t you get sick of it?”
I shake my head, smiling at the thought of seeing him in my kitchen daily. Maybe I could buy him an apron?
“On one condition,” Whis says, and I wait with bated breath. “You allow me to aid you in cleaning your house.”
“Oh, I don’t know…” I trail off, sinking my teeth into my bottom lip.
A tug on my tail surprises me. “You’re so cute when you’re excited,” Whis laughs, holding the animated appendage in his hands. He kisses my burning cheeks and says, “I know you would appreciate my company.”
I take the last bite of my pasta and show him the empty plate. “I’m done eating, can you let go now?”
Whis releases me, raising his hands in surrender. “I’ll take that as a yes then,” he says.
We spend the rest of the day together, cleaning around the house. I tackle my overdue laundry and Whis washes the dishes that have piled up in the sink.
By the end of it all, I was exhausted but happy. The house looks great again; it looks like it did before I stopped cleaning. Seeing how orderly my environment became actually eased some of my anxiety, which is a huge weight off my chest.
“Thank you, Whis,” I say with as much sincerity as I could muster.
He pats my head and says, “It was no trouble at all. Don’t worry, I’ll always be there to catch you if you fall.”
Heat prickles my skin, and the apples of my cheeks tingle.
“Does this change anything between us?” I ask, fidgeting with my fingers.
Whis tilts my chin up to meet his gaze. The corners of his eyes crinkle. “Only if you want it to,” he says.
I stare at the wall behind him. “Only if you do,” I mumble.
Whis claps his hands together. “It’s settled then. Now sleep, I'll make you breakfast in the morning,” he says, pressing a kiss to my forehead.
I nod, following him in a daze as he leads me to the bedroom. Whiz’s laughter echoes through the hallways, and I end up holding my tail to stop it from swishing. No force in the universe can stop my tail once Whis climbs into bed with me.
“I’m making sure you rest well,” is his excuse, but I know better.
Sleep comes easy to me that night, the spot on my forehead still tingling. Whis’s arms keep me warm and I inhale his scent as I’m pressed against his chest. His gentle voice lulls me to sleep and I dream of food, Chicken Alfredo, and Whis and his affectionate gestures.
END NOTE:
This fic might become a series. I'm not sure whether I'll upload it as one (chapters) or individual one-shots. Probably the latter as I don't think they'll directly happen after each other.
I'll see you guys at my next hyperfixation! (。・∀・)ノ

In the Hashira surplus au how do Kanae and Obanai interact?
HELLO!! THANK YOU FOR THE ASK AND SORRY FOR TAKING SO LONG. I had to find answers regarding the timeline (eventually found in this amazing post by @demonslayedher and this detailed reddit post). I got really side tracked by considering how they meet first. As a result, there are some manga spoilers for some backstories (particularly Iguro's).
So! In canon, I don't think Iguro and Kanae ever get to interact. Iguro becomes a hashira after Kanae is killed, so they don't meet as hashira. However, it is possible that they met when Iguro was injured and treated at the hospital. If this happened, it didn't change Iguro's unflattering perception of women. That happened later when he got to know Mitsuri. As a result, if they did meet at the hospital, Iguro probably didn't get a chance to appreciate her swordsmanship or strength, and wasn't comfortable enough to try to get to know her character because of his trauma. It's simpler if they never met, though.
In canon, Obanai meets Mitsuri when she gets lots in the Ubuyashiki mansion. I can't find if either of them were pillars yet, but given the location, I'm guessing this was them on their way to Mitsuri's first biannual pillar meeting. This means that what would otherwise have been a brief encounter gave Iguro the opportunity to really observe Mitsuri, and make a female friend for the first time. This is a huge step for him in overcoming his fear of women.
(Side note - he got awfully far without meeting other strong/nice women. I'm assuming he avoided others and conducted his missions alone, and went to extra lengths to avoid women, so he never really had the chance to have his perception changed. His fears were self-confirming in that way.)
Moving on to the hashira surplus au. Iguro would have met Kanae when he was promoted. This is before he meets Mitsuri, so he has not yet made progress with his fear of women. As a result, there are a couple options:
1) Iguro avoids Kanae as much as possible. They never really interact, so Iguro's fears aren't challenged, and he only changes when he meets Mitsuri, like in canon.
2) Iguro interacts with Kanae somewhat. She is a hashira after all so he can't completely ignore her existence. This makes 1) quite unlikely. It would also be rude, and the other hashira - not to mention Ubushiyaki - would not approve. So they speak when necessary, but Iguro is still noticeably uncomfortable. This disappoints Kanae, but she picks up on it and backs off. She's privately upset since she has no context, but doesn't let it phase her. She speaks to him kindly, as she always does, but doesn't approach him. (Uzui notices this all and is impressed by her, but the other hashira haven't picked up on everything going on.)
Iguro knows logically that not all women are like his family, and he now even has an example, but he is still uncomfortable in their presence. He meets Mitsuri and goes through similar, but not identical, relevations as in canon.
3) Kanae proves to Iguro that his fears of women are wrong. Maybe it starts through contributions at pillar meetings, or how she gracefully handles medical situations. Maybe it's from her approaching him to offer directions in the mansion instead, in a spin on canon.
All outcomes are possible, but in the hashira surplus au, 2 is the case.
Why not 3? Mitsuri challenges Iguro's fears just through how she is: bubbly, genuine, and a bit of a mess. Kanae is inarguably just as kind, but has a more controlled or graceful nature. I think Iguro wouldn't believe her at face value like he does Mitsuri, suspecting hidden inetions. As a result, they never get close until he starts to change, which is when Mitsuri is promoted.
The first time he approaches her unnecessarily, it's to talk about technique. Since flower and snake breathing are both derivatives of water breathing, they have a lot of subtleties they could assess.
At this sudden change in behaviour, Kanae is floored. She quickly picks up her jaw again and is pleasant as always, but she's excited. She doesn't know Iguro at all despite working alongside him for such a long time. And, well, she and Mitsuri are friends. She knows something's going on, and she's curious. Iguro notices this and is slightly intimidated, so their first voluntary conversation is short, but it's a start.
I think over time, they get a much greater appreciation for each other's hard work. Iguro learns about her duties at the butterfly mansion and to her tsuguko & assorted trainees. Kanae learns how he had to work to build his own strength, develop his own style and work around his partial blindness. She doesn't know the details, but she gets the impression his childhood wasn't pleasant and his family was at fault.
Despite getting to know each other, I don't think they become very close, as they're not really each other's type of person. Iguro prefers genuine people (Sanemi, Mitsuri, I reckon Rengoku as well) who either lack the ability or interest in lying/hiding their feelings. Kanae on the other hand is more reserved and thinks before she speaks, as she doesn't wish to hurt others. It's not that Iguro doesn't trust her, but this "filtering" isn't something he appreciates about people in general. On the flip side, Kanae notices how Iguro reflects on things, and particularly disagrees on how he refers to other members of the corps. She's not a fan of his harsh tongue, but she respects him.
So to answer the actual initial question after yapping on about history, I think they're pleasant with each other. They get along. They're not best friends, but they respect each other. They're ideal colleagues, in a sense: cooperative, but unlikely to muck around or goof off. They got along better because Iguro met Mitsuri, but they never become super close, neither before or during the events of canon (following Tanjiro's storyline).
Again, thank you for the ask!! This was really fun to think about :D

I've finally managed to catch up to TMDG! I can’t properly express how everything was perfect from the beginning to the end. You singlehandedly raised the bar so high. Your Fic got me kicking my feet into air and giggling like a high school girl in love. I had to take multiple breaks to let the information in. And JADE, omg jade! the balance between his calculativeness, sly personality, and his romantic softness was on point! You nailed it! This is how i imagine he would be like if he genuinely had feelings for someone. All the details and subtle hints that you added were a nice bonus!
In fact, especially because of the details and subtle hints, I have read the fic twice now to make sure I didn't miss anything the first time I read it! I did notice quite a few things that i didn't notice the first time, and i'm surprised no one asked about this yet. But there was this one scene that made me go ":00". It's not about Jade nor floyd. Nope, it's actually Ace!
This scene in particular: "Giggling, you throw yourself into the booth and wrap your arms around Ace to smother him in friendly affection. He fights it halfheartedly, his cheeks flushed pink." and the fact that Ace was the first to ask if there's something going on with you and Jade?! Am I reading too much into this? But does Ace have a crush on the reader?!
Also, i wondered if you had other endings in mind for TMDG? What if Floyd did, in fact, return the reader's feelings? That would mean all the practising on Jade was worth it in the end, and they'll get their happily ever after, but then would have become of jade? Or what if Jade knocked up the reader in the old Merfolk way with eggs? What will be become of the reader once she realises she's pregnant? or if she knew that Jade was the one in the bedroom with her? Assfgjk@£^&asfhjk@#£^ I'm so invested into this fic! Once again, i absolutely adore TMDG! ♡
-🌸
Hiii, 🌸 anon!!!!! >w< omg thank you so much for the kind compliments!!! I'm happy you enjoyed tmdg as well as Jade's characterization!! I think there's so much romance in subtlety, especially when it comes to Jade. He says so much without speaking sometimes. <3 aaaaa I loved writing him when he's soft and sweet with this underlying calculative edge!!
As for your observations regarding Ace, you're correct!! It's implied he has feelings for Reader. >:D Jade suspects it as well, evidenced by these instances where it looks like he's almost trying to expose Ace's crush to you (or at least make you aware of it):
I'm sorry, Ace. Jade isn't going to let you have Reader. >_< your chances of having anything more than a friendship with her are nonexistent. orz
Oooo alternative endings!!!! I actually did consider going the eggs route. I was going to write Jade with two dicks in his mer form, but I disregarded the idea after some thought. Although a route with eggs would have been fun to write about! I like to imagine in the unofficial sequel Jade will continue to be his charming, sly self and you'll continue to enjoy your fwb relationship. Jade's goal would be to slowly but surely snuff your affections for Floyd so that he can inhabit the empty space in your heart. And if you start to fall for him, perhaps you won't be so upset when you finally learn he's the one responsible for getting you pregnant. By then, he hopes you'll be happy. You won't have to know about that day in the dorm room. After all, what you don't know can't hurt you. :)

Stranger?
Part Five
previous part next part
Author's note: This fanfic is set in the creation of Jenny Han. Conrad Fisher and other characters mentioned in the future do not belong to me. I hope you like this fanfic, depending on how it goes, I'll decide if this fic will have more parts or just this one. This fanfic is recommended for all audiences, there will be no adult content in it, only possible inappropriate language and alcohol consumption.
You wake up feeling something warm next to you, as if you were curled up. When you remember that you and Conrad slept together last night. In your car, in the middle of the night. You notice Conrad is underneath you, sleeping like a baby. But as soon as you wake up you feel how uncomfortable it is to sleep in the back seat of the car, letting out a groan of pain with each attempt to get out from Conrad's arms.
"It's not polite to wake someone up like that, you know?" Conrad still speaks with his eyes closed and you smile slightly as if you had been caught doing something wrong.
"Why aren't you polite? I did my best not to wake you up." You say indignantly.
"Don't leave my arms before I wake up, I might feel abandoned." You laugh, watching him make drama.
"Next time I'll wake you up with slaps, I want to see if you'll like it." You say, standing up and helping Conrad get up too.
"Sleeping in this car was a thousand times better than I ever imagined, you know?" Conrad smiles charmingly, looking into your eyes as he says that. Considering how you both spent last night, you might expect him to complain about a sore back, but it seems like sleeping together was worth it.
"I would have preferred to sleep in a bed, but I can't deny that your company isn't the worst..." You say, teasing Conrad.
"I'd be offended if I didn't know from what we went through yesterday that you loved my company." Conrad says, all proud, and you look at him disapprovingly.
"Changing the subject, where did your brother and Belly go?" You try to shift the topic before it gets awkward.
"They went to sort out their couple issues in Jeremiah's car." Conrad speaks with such subtlety that you wouldn't even think he's one of the issues in that couple.
"Don't you think we should invite them for coffee somewhere nearby?" You say, wrapping your arms around Conrad's shoulders. You even run your fingers through his hair gently, hoping he'll support your idea.
"I think we could go back to the car and drive far away from them..." Conrad's suggestion comes in a joking tone, but you sense that it might be what he's really feeling.
"Unfortunately, Prince Charming, this Cinderella needs to get home before her mom starts worrying." Knowing your mother, she would send half the world after you before the end of the day if you didn't go home soon.
"No problem. I'll take you home after breakfast." Conrad says with a gentle smile. You watch him closely as he hugs you from behind, resting your head on his chest.
"If you're taking me home, let's at least say goodbye to Jeremiah and Belly. What kind of first impression will they have of me if I don't even wave goodbye?" You say, holding Conrad's hands tightly around your body. The truth is that it's a little cold on the beach and Conrad is a great substitute for a blanket.
"First impressions are overrated; let's save the good impression for the second time." Conrad suggests, and you feel like he's hinting that you'll see them again, possibly meaning you'll keep seeing him too.
"Let's say goodbye to your brother and Belly quickly before I leave you alone with them and take off." You say, pretending to threaten. Conrad looks at you as if unsure if you're joking or not but ends up laughing before you both go to bid farewell to Jeremiah and Belly.
As you and Conrad approach Jeremiah's car, you notice that he and Belly are lying together, with Jeremiah tenderly caressing her. You sense that this might bother Conrad, so you glance at him, offering some form of comfort. However, he seems surprisingly okay—almost as if yesterday's argument with Belly never happened. You allow yourself to imagine that he's moving on, perhaps even becoming enchanted by you.
"The lovebirds could do us the favor of coming to say goodbye." Conrad says, tapping on Jeremiah's car window. The couple in front is taken aback, and you scold Conrad, giving his arm a playful smack.
You turn away, attempting to give Belly and Jeremiah some privacy. Conrad gives you a mockingly complaining look about the arm smack. You murmur a "serves you right" as you run your hand over the "injured" arm.
"I thought we were going to have coffee together..." Jeremiah says, adjusting himself while Belly fixes her slightly tousled hair. You smile, realizing that not even you and Conrad managed to do that.
"The princess here needs to go home, and I can't let her go alone." Conrad says, surprising you with how he skillfully turns things in his favor.
"No need for that. You can stay with your brother, and I'll go home just the way I came here—alone." You assert. Jeremiah and Belly seem to be enjoying the spectacle as Conrad reacts to the suggestion that he stays with them.
"As you can see, she needs me. But honestly, I'd like to thank both of you for coming here looking for me." Conrad declares, catching you off guard. Even though you've known Conrad for a short time, you can't help but feel a certain pride in him.
"Whatever you did to him, keep doing it." Jeremiah says, addressing you. "But honestly, no need to thank us. Both Belly and I care about you and just want to see you well." Jeremiah looks at both you and Conrad. It's heartwarming to see how these siblings genuinely care for each other.
"And sorry if the three of us went too far yesterday, making our first time together seem weird. I promise next time we'll try to be better..." Belly apologizes, addressing you.
"Don't worry, I heard first impressions are overrated. I think next time, everything will be better." As you say this, there's a shared understanding among the group, and a sense of relief washes over. Conrad shoots you a grateful look. With smiles exchanged, you and Conrad finally head off, leaving Jeremiah and Belly behind.
"You know you just confirmed that you'll see them again, which means I completely seduced you, and you'll keep seeing me." Conrad speaks using a mischievous tone. You look at him in disbelief.
"I don't remember mentioning you. I think you need to improve your hearing, babe." You say as you stand as the two of you are getting into the car. You and Conrad then decide in the car that you will go after his car and that he will follow you home. You say there's no need but Conrad doesn't seem to want to let you get home unaccompanied. You smile as he says that from what he observed yesterday, my mother wouldn't like him if he wasn't a real gentleman to me. You smile, feeling defeated by the fact that he wants to meet your mother and want to see you again. For a few moments you wish he wasn't there in love with someone else. You then make your way to your house...
