Weekend WIP Around
so. i'm bad at responding to tag games at the best of times. and then i worked 11 days straight and lost all sense of time and space. but! ive had several days off now, my head is screwed on relatively straight again, so here we go. thanks to: @cha-melodius @three-drink-amy @inexplicablymine @affectionatelyrs @dumbpeachjuice @welcometololaland @celaestis1 @indomitable-love @14carrotghoul @rmd-writes @doggernaut @sherryvalli @kiwiana-writes @leaves-of-laurelin and @read-and-write- for the MANY tags over the last two weeks! have some words! 💜🦗
I'm using @welcometololaland's 20 question game for writers and artists (thanks Lola, this is so fun!)
1. WIP List: (from my "Active WIPs" folder otherwise we'd be here 5eva) Game Changer (Noise Boys) Tortall AU [FTH] rwrb assassination attempt AU [FTH] jon/alanna Tortall canon-divergence [FTH] an incomplete list series going platinum sequel jack's off-season wishlist series rwrb kiss-cam omgcp say yes to the dress au
2. Which of your WIPs is currently the longest? Game Changer AU ~2.4k
3. Which WIP do you expect will end up the longest? eventually an incomplete list series since it has the most parts planned, but the going platinum sequel has more than a little potential to explode on me
4. Which WIP is your favourite to write/the most enjoyable to write? Why? I am SUPER enjoying writing the Game Changer AU right now, it's really fun coming up with all the prompts!
5. Which WIP do you find the most intimidating to write? Why? jon/alanna canon-divergence. hands down. it's not a pairing i usually seek out, and i want to write them believably, especially since it's for charity
6. Which WIP do you experience the most self-doubt about. Why? see above.
7. Which of your WIPs will you seek out a beta/sensitivity reader for? Why? probably everything on this list will get a beta pass, actually. kiss cam will depend on how long i end up making it/if it actually gets a whole plot XD
8. Have any of your WIPs been struck by the curse of writer's block? jon/alanna has less of a writer's block and more of a starting block, but i'm hopeful that once i figure out the plot the writing will come fairly easily. kiss-cam au I paused on purpose because i was writing The Mummy AU and Going Platinum at the same time and a third wip was driving me crazy.
9. Which WIP has your favourite OC? Tell us about them? none of them have OC's at this time
10. Which WIP is the sexiest? Going Platinum sequel 🤝 Jack's Off-Season Wishlist
11. Which WIP is the angstiest? rwrb assassination attempt AU, for obvious reasons
12. Which WIP has the best characterisation (in your humble opinion)? well, i hope all of them!
13. Which WIP has the best scene setting (in your humble opinion)? ditto from above
14. Which WIP have you worked the hardest on? as of today, Game Changer Tortall AU
15. Which WIP do you have the highest expectations for? Why? Going Platinum sequel. I cut a lot of ideas from the original fic because they didn't make sense with the hiding identities I had going on, so now that they're together, I'm really excited to figure out how alex's job (and henry's support of it) lets their relationship evolve and grow
16. Do you dream about any of your WIPs? not about any of these, but while I was writing the Mummy AU I watched the movie so frequently that I would regularly dream about that one.
17. Do any of your WIPs have particular complexities that your other fics don't? Going Platinum sequel - choreography complications since they still aren't showing their faces on the streams Game Changer Tortall AU - working within the framework of the show itself, possibly coding the whole thing to look like a script
18. Which WIP is the funniest or has the most humour? Game Changer AU for sure.
19. Do any of your WIPs contain outside POVs or a deep dive on a character other than the main ship? How are you finding that process? not right now!
20. Tell us one thing we don't know about one or more of your WIPs. say yes to the dress au - Bitty as Randy, but it's a Nurseydex endgame fic AND a bonus snippet from the Game Changer Tortall fic to make up for all the 6/7 sentences/wip weds i've missed :D
“Tonight’s guests: coming in fresh from a shower: it’s Merric Hollyrose! Looking around for somewhere to tie his horse: Owen Jesslaw! Tallest, oldest, last – and certainly not happy about it – it’s Neal Queenscove! And your host, me! I’ve been here the whole time.” “Welcome to Gamechanger, the only game show where the game changes every show. I am your host, Kel Mindelan, and I’m joined today by these three lovely contestants. Now, you all understand how the game works?” Merric shakes his head. “Nope.”  “Haven’t the foggiest,” says Owen cheerful as always in the face of the unknown. “You haven’t explained a dratted thing.” Neal pouts and Kel feels the last wisps of nerves melt away in response. Kel knows how to do this – getting Neal to hit peak dramatically grumpy levels is as natural as breathing. She throws Neal a cheeky grin before turning back to the camera. “That’s right! Our players have no idea what game it is that they’re about to play. The only way to learn is by playing, the only way to win is by learning, and the only way to begin is by beginning, so without further ado – let’s begin.”
Consider this an open tag to play along!

Rumors P2
A/N: Hello, hello. Here's part two. I hope y'all enjoy!
Link to Part 1 Link to Part 3
Pairing: Jack Harlow x Actress!OC TW: angst, smut
Tumblr media
As soon as the line picked up, Shae didn’t wait for him to speak, “Jack, I'm so s-“
“I really don't want to hear an apology from you right now,” Jack gruffly interrupted. “My PR team is going to send over a statement to your team for approval and I'll post it this afternoon. You can reshare it or send over a statement for approval.”
Shae winced at how cold he sounded and took a deep breath to try to keep from crying, “Baby, can you please come home so we can talk about this? Or I can come to you?”
“Now you want to talk?” A bitter laugh spilled out of his mouth, “I practically begged you to talk to me and give me a few days to solve this. Or are you forgetting that you haven't answered one phone call or text from me over the past 5 days?”
She sniffled, “I know. I sh-“
His voice cracked as he asserted, “I told you it wasn't me, and you just…”
Shae felt her chest tighten at how hurt he sounded as he trailed off. She waited a few moments to see if he was going to continue and when it became apparent he wasn’t, she finally spoke.
“I know, Jack. I know. You have every right to be angry at me, but I promise I'm going to do everything I can to make it up to you.”
“You honestly think that's possible?”
“I'd like to try,” came her earnest response.
Jack scoffed, “Are you forgetting that you basically told me that you believed I would cheat on you because I've changed and our relationship, apparently, was terrible?”
“That’s not what I said!” Shae exclaimed before taking a moment to even out her tone, “Jackman, there was so much evidence an-“
“Fuck the evidence, Shaela!” he snarled through the phone. “I didn't ask you to blindly believe me. I asked you to give me time before you ended things. After 3 years, you couldn't give me that so what the fuck are we even doing?”
“Jack, I know I screwed up, okay,” she conceded. “And I know you're going to be angry at me for a while and I deserve that. I know I have no right to ask but can you please give me the chance to make this right?”
Jack bit his tongue and kept silent, knowing that everything he wanted to say in response was just going to cut the actress deeply and make things worse.
She let out a weary sigh before she gently broached, “You leave back out on tour in two days. Can you please come home so we can try to salvage them?”
“I think it'd be best if I didn't. I need some space.” His grip on the phone tightened as he admonished, “And before you start, these last 5 days don't count because I spent them going out of my mind trying to figure out how to prove to you that I was innocent.”
As desperately as she wanted him home, she figured it was in her best interest not to argue.
Instead, she asked, “Do you still want me to come out to join you on tour in two weeks?”
He shook his head ruefully even though she couldn’t see him, “You don't even know how much I want to say yes to that.”
She was afraid to ask and barely choked out, “But?”
He sighed, “But I'm not sure. Can I let you know closer to when you're supposed to fly out?”
“Yeah.”
“Okay. I should go. You'll have the statement sent over to you shortly."
“Okay.” She quickly called out before he could hang up, “Wait, Jack.”
Annoyance crept into his voice, “Yeah?”
His tone gave Shae pause but she managed to stammer out, “I...uh...I love you.”
“I'll talk to you later.”
Shae stared down at her phone and let the tears she’d been keeping at bay flow freely.
                           **********************
Urban rose an eyebrow at his best friend, “Damn dude, I only heard your side and that shit sounded painful.”
“What should she have expected? She didn't hesitate to end things between us! I'm not the bad guy,” he reasoned.
2fo chimed in, “Of course, you're not, but that doesn't mean she is either.”
“Please,” Jack leaned back in his chair, “enlighten me as to how she isn’t?”
“Because if the situation were reversed, you wouldn't have believed her either.” Urban crossed his arms, “A fact that you've admitted to at least 4 times over the past few days.”
“You're glossing over the fact that I also said that if she was as adamant as I was that it wasn't her, I would have at least given her time to prove that it wasn't,” he countered.
“Fair enough,” Schloob spoke up. “But you can't act like you two haven't been having issues. You literally told us last time we were on the road and y'all got into it because she had to push back coming out because of reshoots for her movie that every time one of you had to cancel on the other that it made you doubt whether a future and a family was in the cards for you two. So, acting like she's the only one who'd been doubting the relationship isn't fair.”
“How is it that all of you are on her side?”
“We are on your side,” Quiiso interjected. “We all know how much you love her, and we all know you're going to be miserable without her. You're angry and hurt she didn't give you time, which is understandable. All we're saying is that you both had good reason to act and feel the way you did.”
Urban added in, “We just don't want you making permanent decisions you might regret later because you're reacting to the situation instead of doing what's best for you in the long run.”
Jack ran a hand over his face, “Can we change the topic?”
“Sure,” Urban answered, “Would you like to talk about which one of us is going to stop by the house and pack for tour? Or do you plan on going by yourself?”
                           **********************
Shae opened the door, slightly surprised that Jack had chosen to knock instead of just using his key.
She stepped to the side as both Jack and Urban entered the house. She was tempted to crack a joke about it but figured it would only increase the tension that was hanging over all of them like a dark cloud.
Urban pulled her into a hug, "Hey, sis."
She hugged him back tightly, "Hey."
She turned toward Jack, shifting her weight from foot to foot as she gently broached, "If you guys haven't had lunch yet, I could make something while you pack."
"We're good. I don't plan on being here long," Jack answered as he turned to head toward their bedroom.
"He just needs some time, Shae, “Urban tossed an arm over her shoulder and gave it a light squeeze. "He wasn't really angry or upset with you the past few days. He was going stir-crazy trying to figure out how to clear his name so you wouldn't hate him. Once the video dropped, he finally got hit with how it felt for you to not believe him--which no one in our circle blames you for. It looked bad and, to be honest, the only reason we believed him is because we were with him."
She reached up and squeezed his hand, "I know. I'm not mad that he's acting this way. I'm just sad because I don't really know how to fix it."
"All of PG and Neelam and Chris are doing our best to get him in a better headspace. Just keep showing up as much as he'll allow you to, and I think it'll work out."
She nodded and then headed to the bedroom. When she entered, she found Jack sitting on their bed with his head in his hands, suitcase at his feet. She cleared her throat and Jack looked up, eyes shiny from unshed tears. 
“Are you okay?”
He blinked a few times to bring her into focus, “You packed my suitcase?”
“Oh...um...yeah. Just the one, though.” Shae wrung her hands together and started to ramble, “I know I usually do it because you always forget things, but I left the other one empty in case there were things you wanted that I didn't think of. I just packed the necessities and stuff you always lounge around the house in since you weren't here to tell me which clothes you wanted. Was that overstepping? I'm sorry if it was. I was just trying to be helpful. I can undo it.”
Shae walked over to the bed and reached for the suitcase, but Jack reached out to grab her wrist and pulled her into his lap. She immediately wrapped her arms around his neck as he buried his face into hers. She lightly ran her fingers through his hair, and they sat that way for a few minutes, just breathing each other in.
Jack started to kiss her neck and she pulled away slightly, “Jack, what are y-“
He cut her off by softly grabbing her face and pulling her in for a kiss that she hastily returned. Shae felt her heart begin to race as he slipped his tongue into her mouth, exploring every crevice.
Jack turned them so that Shae was on her back and he was in between her legs. He didn’t break the kiss as he movies to pull off the leggings that she was wearing.
Shea wrenched her lips from his and panted, "We can't. Urban is in the living room.”
"Wouldn’t be the first time he overheard us." He flippantly countered with a shrug before reclaiming her lips which she instantly melted into.
This time, when he moved to take off her leggings, she lifted her hips to help him. He hurriedly pulled his pants down just enough to slip his dick out. Jack quickly lined himself up with her entrance and slid into her with one solid stroke.
Shae groaned into his mouth as she tried to adjust to having him inside of her. Jack set a frenzied pace as he reached down to wrap one of her legs around his waist.
"Fuck," he hissed as she scratched at his back. He angled his head to growl in her ear, "You always feel so good. How could I ever want anyone else?"
Shae whimpered when he pulled back slightly and tugged at her braids so she was looking up at him, “When I know how to make you feel this good, how could you think I’d be this way with anyone else?”
She reached up to cup his face but the softness of her touch and the look in her eyes held far too much emotion for Jack. He gently grabbed her wrist and pinned her arm above her head as he recaptured her lips in a searing kiss.
Jack could feel the signs that he was close to finishing and reached in between them to circle her clit with his fingers, still determined to prioritize Shae getting off before he did.
He swallowed her sob as she came. The feeling of her clenching around him was enough to send him over the edge.
He stayed on top of her, head buried in the crook of her neck as she rubbed her hands up and down his back. Her mouth is right beside his ear and Shae can't help but find herself chanting 'I’m sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again.
He finally rolled over onto his back to blankly stare at the ceiling as he tucked his dick back into his sweats.
Shae waited to see what he was going to say and found herself having to blink back tears when he did.
“We shouldn't have done that.”
She turned on her side, resting her head on her arm as she meekly replied, “Maybe not, but I think we both needed it.”
“I just...” Jack scratched his beard, “I just don't want to give you false hope or mixed signals.”
Shae felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, “What is that supposed to mean?”
“It means exactly what you think it means.” He sat up and he let out a ragged breath, "We're not okay right now. And technically, you broke up with me before I left the house, so we aren't even actually together.”
Waves of hurt and anger washed over her, but after the chaos that had surrounded them over the past week, she didn’t feel like she had any real standing to argue.
Shae stood and grabbed her discarded leggings, clumsily pulling them back on as she mumbled, “I'll go wait in the living room with Urban.”
Before she can get too far out of his grasp, he gently grabbed her arm, lightly caressing it with his thumb as he murmured, "I'm not trying to intentionally hurt you, Shae. I swear I'm not.”
“I know.” She leaned down to kiss the top of his head and gave a defeated sigh, “I know.”
Shae quickly walked down the hall and past the living room to grab her keys off the wall. As she pulled a pair of tennis shoes off the shoe rack next to the door and started to put them on, Urban moved to stop her.
“Where are you going?”
Shea wiped away a few tears as she choked out, “I can't be here, Urby. Can you text me and let me know when y'all leave?”
“You don't have to leave, Shae.” He tried to put his arm around her, but she shook him off, “Just come sit on the couch with me.”
She shook her head, “I can’t”
“Shae.”
“No, Urban,” she harshly admonished. “I can't sit with you and let you comfort me because it’s very apparent that the odds are great that Jack isn't going to be able to move past this. So, I'm going to lose him. Sure, maybe PG will keep in touch here and there, but it won’t be the same as it has been. It can’t be. Y’all are his people. I need to start preparing for that so I can't be here with you two. Not right now.”
“Okay, fine,” he conceded. “But you shouldn't be driving. Not with how upset you are. Regardless of what he's feeling right now, he loves you. He'd never forgive himself or me if you stormed out of here and got into an accident. He shouldn't be too much longer. Maybe just go for a walk around the neighborhood?”
“Fine,” she acquiesced.
As soon as she'd shut the door, Urban made a beeline for Jack. He found him sitting on the floor with his back against the foot of the bed, knees were drawn, and his head in his hands.
He didn’t bother to look up as he spoke, “Don't start Urban. I know I just screwed up, okay?”
“I have no comment about what just happened.” Urban sank down to sit beside him and nudged his shoulder, “What I will say is you need to take the next two weeks to really think about what you want the outcome to be. She's obviously just as torn up as you are about this whole thing, but you can only act like this for so long before she has a right to be angry at you for it. Maybe all of this is too much and you two can't come back from it, but you spent 5 whole days on the phone with lawyers and cybersecurity techs trying to prove you were innocent because you didn't want her to end things hating you. Keep this up and that's where it’s going to end up anyway.”
He turned his head to look at his best friend, “I don't know if things will ever be the same.”
Urban nudged his shoulder again, “Bro, why would you want them to?”
“What?”
“You two weren’t in the best place before this and you're an idiot if you don't think that didn't somehow factor into her believing so easily that you would cheat on her.” He crossed his legs as he continued, “You told us she said that the other girls were probably easier to deal with than her. You don't think that statement tells you everything you need to know about where her head was at? Ask yourself, and be honest, if this had happened a year ago when things were still good, do you think she would have had the same reaction? Or do you think she gives you the time you ask for?"
“A year ago?” Jack ruefully shook his head and chuckled, “As soon as I said it wasn't me, she would have been on the phone with her lawyers trying to figure out what my lawyers needed to do.”
“Exactly. Everything about this situation sucks, but maybe this is an opportunity for you two to be even stronger than before.”
“Maybe.”
                           **********************
Shae walked back toward her house after getting the all-clear from Urban. She stopped short at the driveway when she realized that Jack's car was still there. She started to turn around but Urban quickly came out of the house and stopped her. He jogged over to her and started guiding her to the house.
Confusion marred Shae’s face, “You told me you two had left?”
“Only way I could guarantee that you’d come back,” Urban explained with a shrug. “You need to go inside and talk to him.”
She stopped dead in her tracks, “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
“We leave tomorrow morning, Shae.” He looked her directly in the eye, “I know you don't want to hear it, but there's no guarantee you'll be joining us in two weeks, so you need to go talk to him now.”
Shae simply nodded and continued the trek to the front door. She tried to steel her heart as she opened the door and found Jack sitting on the couch in the living room. She toed off her shoes before she joined him in the room. She opted to sit in the lounge chair they had in the corner.
Jack cleared his throat and motioned to the opposite end of the couch, “Can you come sit over here?”
She cautiously took a seat on the couch, and he reached out to grasp her hand, engulfing them in his, “I need to apologize for earlier.”
“No, you don't,” the actress assured him.
“No, Shae, I do,” he asserted. “I agree with you that, to a certain extent, I think we were both desperate for it, but I don't know that it was the best thing for us right now.” He gently squeezed her hand, “I also want you to know that I love you. No matter what else I'm feeling right now, that hasn't changed. I should have said it back to you when you called me about the video.”
“I understand why you didn't.”
“I'm going to be honest with you, okay?”
She swallowed the lump in her throat before she spoke, “Of course.”
“I'm really hurt and really angry but part of that is because I know it only got this bad between us because things were already starting to strain,” Jack explained. “Even erasing this past week, we were already having problems. I think both of us really need to take some time and think about what we both want.”
“I don't need to think about it,” Shae exclaimed defensively. “I want you. I want us.”
“Do you really,” Jack questioned. “Or do you feel guilty because you didn't believe me, and you want to make that better?”
A knot instantaneously formed in Shae’s stomach as she realized that she didn’t actually know the answer to his questions. She was unable to fight back the sob that spilled from her lips and Jack quickly pulled her to his chest. She wrapped her arms around his waist, her wails muffled as she cried into his chest. He faintly kissed the top of her head as he rubbed his hands up and down her back to calm her down. Several minutes passed before Shae felt composed enough to pull away from him.
Jack lightly ghosted a hand along the top of her thigh, “Can I let you know within the week if I want you out on tour?”
“Yeah,” she wiped her face with her sleeve. “Yeah, that's fine.”
“Walk me out?”
“Yeah.”
He stood and then helped Shae get up from the couch. Once they reached the front of the door, he pulled her into a tight hug.
Shae pulled back slightly and bit her lip a bit before asking, “Can I kiss you?”
Jack hated that she sounded so hesitant. They’d always been a couple who tried their best to be safe places for open communication. Her uncertainty just reminded him of how badly the prank had screwed them up.
He gently caressed her face with one hand before he tilted it up toward him and he leaned down to meet her lips.
A small part of Shae was afraid that it was the last time she would ever get to kiss him so she tried to keep it going for as long as she could. When they both, eventually, came up for air, she gave him a few quick pecks in rapid succession across his lips which he gladly accepted.
They rested their foreheads against one another’s as they both tried to get their breathing under control.
Jack was the first one to step back.
“I love you, Shae,” he earnestly states.
Her throat feels like sandpaper as she croaks out, “I love you, too.”
With a slight nod, he opened the door and made his exit.
Shae was able to keep her sobs at bay until the car made it safely out of the driveway.

Fallout OC asks, dealer's choice of character: 1, 2, 9 and 31?
Tumblr media
IM SO SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG TO ANSWER....I got carried away and wanted to talk about all of my fallout OCs.... All of my characters include... Schaefer (Schae) Hartmann and her wife, Toni. Their descendants are my two characters Loretta (Rhett) Locklear and River Hartmann (they're cousins!) Jack and his granddaughter, Mariposa. The other non related characters are Claire, Sherry, and Danny! Answers, below the cut! It's a doozy. :)
1. All of my characters are human! The exception is Danny, a ghoul who's lived all over the wastes since the Great War. 2. Schae (pronounced Shay) is my 76er. She was born inside Vault 76. Rhett is my Courier 6, Jack is my Vault Dweller, his granddaughter Mariposa is my Chosen one, Claire is my Warrior (Fallout Tactics protag) and Sherry is my Lone Wanderer! Yes, I don't have a Sole Survivor! To me, FO4 is a little harder to come up with a character for as they feel a little more boxed in by an identity (ie, parent who is a soldier/lawyer depending if you pick nate or nora.) 9. Schae & Toni: Schae grew up in Vault 76, and on reclamation day set off into the Appalachian wastes. Toni grew up in WV but originally her family came from Nevada, where they decided to move back out to years later. They say Schae had some strange mutations from living in the wastes, and could "jump as high as a jackalope." Rumor has it, she lives ghoulified out in the world, still hunting for Cryptids. Rhett & River: Cousins who grew up on the same Brahmin far, they didn't get along until their adulthood. River left home young to pursue a music and radio host career, as well as to seek a medical transition, while eventually Rhett became a Courier for the Mojave express. River now travels all over the wastes collecting music holotapes and stories. Jack: My Vault 13 Dweller, being forced out into the wastes at 18 to find a new water chip for his Vault. His backstory is pretty straight forward from there, following the events of the game. At some point in his 60s, he suddenly left Arroyo, to never be seen again. Mariposa: A name chosen by her grandfather, naturally Mariposa was destined to become the Chosen One of her tribe. She's bright and spunky, but quick on her feet and witty. With her Highwayman full of companions, she set off to save her tribe. Sherry: Sherry was originally just a bit of a self insert character from my first Fallout 3 play through, but she's evolved since then. (IE, when I started new games, I typically just made the character myself) but she's pretty different now, and is named after the 4 Seasons song, Sherry. Claire: Claire is currently the least fleshed out, because I'm still working through my Tactics playthrough! But she's a BOS Scribe. :) Danny: Fun fact! Danny was my first and oldest fallout OC. She originally started as a Fallout 3 OC, but she's evolved since. She was living in DC when the Great War happened and has since spent her days as a wanderer. 31. River wants to leave a lasting imprint on people through his music and his radio Broadcast, Little Brahmin Blues. Both Mariposa and Sherry want to change and improve the wastes for the better, while Jack has a disdain for his legacy seeing as how it cost him his place in his Vault.

Hi, Hey there!
I've had this blog up for a few weeks so I figured I'd introduce myself. Not gonna reveal my actual name for security reasons but just call me Kosmic.
I currently live in the USA (Unfortunately). I'm genderfluid and really don't care what pronouns I am referred to with as long as they're not it/it's.

Also don't be a sicko, no pedophila or zoophilia.
Some other stuff about me in case you care:
I'm a minor, don't be a creep.
I have ADHD, tend to hyperfixate on weird stuff. Then again a lot of people on this website do. Just saying I'm not one to judge people when I think about my interests.
I'm agnostic but I'm not going to crap on anyone for having a religion, as long as you're not a Jehovah's Witness. Screw those abusive idiots.

bestie! do u have any faceclaims for your ocs from fftd hehehe 🤭 my imagination is so lame and usually i can't really see the faces and my memory is awful so i can't remember if you've described them in earlier and i missed it i def need to read again 😭 but based on vibes i personally think:
katy -> katy perry!!! wow so original hehehe but like she has unhinged california gurls cupcake boobs energy i think! can also see her with dark hair and blue eyes ACTUALLY maybe georgina sparks when she was in her (fleeting) silly goofy not illegal era
hudson -> mid/late-2000s cade owens (jack hotchner from criminal minds he is SO cute)
figueroa -> i think he would look like a scary danny devito (eyebrows and being short??? definitely yes in my imagination)
backman -> from what i remember he was more evil? like the scary voodoo man from the princess and the frog except not a cartoon i def think he would have thin eyebrows tho
jessica -> i have no clue hehehe
would love to hear ur thoughts/ how/if you imagine them in ur head etc etc <3
Ahh omg, thank you for asking and offering me a distraction right now! I have a couple of face claims for a few characters and then others not quite as much, but I certainly enjoyed seeing what you envisioned! Honestly I don't know how much I described everyone long ago, I try to keep Reader's family vague though so people can imagine what they want for this series.
For Katy, I for some reason have always pictured Nora Lum (Awkwafina I think she goes by?) but with shoulder length hair. Even the voice. It's like exact in my head for some reason when I write her. Oddly enough, I think her character in Marvel's Shang-Chi was also named Katy... Interesting you imagine Katy Perry, I could see that, too! Love that you imagine dark hair because I definitely do too!
For Hudson, honestly that's pretty close to what I imagine him looking like in my head! I would say that's probably who I would pick as a face claim. I have kept him physically vague because he's a family member of Reader's, but as I write him I picture him similar to that!
Omg for Figureroa that is so funny you picture Danny DeVito!! I picture someone like Robert De Niro for some reason, but not quite as old as he currently is now. Someone who looks like a stern CEO type that would certainly hire hitmen to kill you...
Very interesting choice for Backman! For some reason I always pictured Ramón Rodríguez who plays Bakuto in Iron Fist and Defenders (one of the Hand members). I just pictured him as a well dressed middle aged man who doesn't seem like someone who would kill you, but he definitely would kill you. Slowly.
For Jessica Manning (who is reappearing again quite soon), I envision something like Megan Fox. Dark hair and bright blue eyes. Someone who can look sweet but could also be a total dick (nothing against the actress, but she could totally pull off a bitch role, you know?). That's probably the closest I can think of to her off the top of my head.
Thank you for asking!! I'm always curious to know what you all envision when you read the series!

Anyway, I’ve talked a lot about Tommy without talking about Him, so let’s do that.
I was expecting Tubbo to be part of his group, but having him be there as just Tomys friend is so funny. It’s also adorable. (And it probably says a thing or two about how stubborn Tomys is, since he probably refused to go without him). Their dynamic very much gives “Your majesty, this is my emotional support best friend”.
Having Jack as a guard is giving me Stars flashbacks. Probably as intended. It’s funny that he is now Tomys guard instead of Wilbur’s. I was not expecting Puffy, but I probably should have. She’s there to make sure Tomys behaves, but she still has a lot of work to do about the etiquette. She also gives me the vibes of someone who deserves a raise.
Side note: did Niki or Quackity come with extra entourage? Like Niki was a baby, but Quackity was similar in age. Or is this unusual? (Also, I love the throne and crown, I’m sure that doesn’t have any ominous relation to certain tags on this fic)
Anyway, Tomys first impression reflects very badly on Sam. As we learn in chapter 3, everyone figures out why Tomys is there. And he’s clearly a bad first choice as a heir. (As in, if Sam were to die right now, Tomys would do terribly compared to Niki or Quackity).
He comes off as just a kid, which he is, but that’s not something you can be in this situation. None of the other kids got to have a normal childhood. On top of that Tomys is kinda a little brat, for a noble child at least, and not in the way those kids are normally brats.
But Sam seems rather fond of him. He’s very patient with him and all his blunders. I think he’s a kind king, but *looks at chapter 3* he’s not the brightest. It becomes very clear, very quickly that Sam did not think this true at all.
Like part of his decision process is wanting to decide something for himself because he’s self aware enough to know Phil is pulling the strings, but not smart enough to actually do it himself. So he brings Tomys and is all secretive, but then he didn’t talk it through with anyone and missed so many implications because he’s just living in his own world. But then he doubles down which is incredibly childish, but he wanted to make a desicion for himself and refuses to acknowledge that it’s backfireing (which is a very worrisome quality to have in a King).
Though I think some of it might just also be actually indecisiveness and wanting to buy himself more time to chose because he clearly doesn’t know who to pick based on how he asked Schlatt. He’s just digging himself a bigger hole and I’m scared he’ll double down further and will pick Tomys in the future just because Phil doesn’t want him to (can you tell I do not like Sam? Very good writing job on that, btw).
(2/?)
-🎄
no literally I was trying to figure out a position for tubbo that wasn't 'personal servant' just bc I didn't feel like doing that for this fic, and when I couldn't come up with anything I was like "...it's clingyduo tubbo would come just as his emotional support bestie" and then I thought back to how in historical movies you always hear about nobles having their ladies in waiting/companions/friends showing up with them everywhere like an entourage and I was like huh that would work
lol yeah after stars I'm a bit of a sucker for writing jack manifold as a guard again. he's just so good in that type of role, although I'd say he's going to have a smaller role here than he had in stars (though who knows I also didn't think stars!jack would play a very big role and look how that turned out). and of course tommy needed an adult chaperone so I thought of puffy. she's so tired of this shit.
yes, niki and quackity both came with entourages of their own although I'm not going to mention them bc I can't think of characters they'd be and I don't like throwing ocs into my fics for more than just a few lines here and there. except since niki was brought to the palace so young she essentially came just with her nanny and some guards, and when she was eventually given ladies in waiting they were provided by the palace not by summerdam. quackity was a little older so he showed up with a tutor, guards, and probably a private servant. still working out details on backstory stuff you know how it goes
yeahhh the thing is tommy's immaturity is pretty prevalent right off the bat, and while he's not overly bratty by noble kid standards, by potential future heir to the kingdom standards he's terrible. and it says something about sam's ideas towards leadership that he only just met the kid and has a bit of a soft spot towards him, because he doesn't know tommy. not at all. but he thinks he does.
i'm glad you don't like sam. he's meant to be a very messy character in rose. someone who so clearly wants to be good at this game he's playing but is just so blatantly not which causes problems for everyone else around him

20 questions For Fic Writers
thank you so much for taggin me, @colettebronte
1. How many works do you have on AO3?
All of six (although some unfinished) fics. However, I have written about fifty all in all, most of them are just up on my old livejournal. I haven't posted them on AO3 because no one would read them anyway.
2. What’s your total AO3 word count?
159 307 words.
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Currently Brigderton. And I have this Stucky WIP that I really do still intend on finishing. Other than that, I have written quite a bit for Doctor Who, Torchwood, SPN RPF and of course, Harry Potter (Remus/Sirius forever).
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
our love is these days' piano (penthony)
R&R (rose/doctor)
(and in between i drink) black coffee (spn rpf)
be kind, unwind (spn rpf)
water out of wine (the aforementioned stucky wip)
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?
I used to reply to every comment, back on LJ and on AO3 as well, but I was not prepared for the amount of comments I got for OLITDP. I couldn't keep up and ran out of new ways to say "thank you so much <3" so I haven't replied to any in a while. But every comment I get on the final chapter will definitely get a response.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
None that are on AO3. Life is stressful enough as it is, I just want my blorbos to be happy. Some of my earlier HP-fics were kind of angsty, mostly because I didn't quite do AU's yet. So there were lots of sad character moments for Remus and Sirius.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
Pretty much all of them? Back when I started writing fics, I wrote a few with sad endings, but now I'll keep it ambiguous at the very least.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
One person commented on the first chapter of OLITDP that I should "be more obvious with self inserting and write OC/Anthony." Does that count?
I found it hilarious because a) I don't see how there's anything wrong with writing OC's and b) I genuinely was not self inserting.
But other than that, no. I haven't nearly gained enough traction to get hate.
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?
I (anonymously!) wrote one smutty fic once and I still feel uncomfortable about it. As far as writing is concerned, it's just not my cup of tea. So much respect to the people who do, though.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?
Alas, no crossovers. If I ever think of a good idea for one, I would love to try my hand at it, though.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Not that I know of. Again, I'm not even close to well known enough to have something like that happen.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
See above.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Yes! I co-wrote a Remus/Sirius-fic with one of my LJ-besties at the time. I also started writing a fic with another LJ-friend that basically was Hogwarts: the Marauders Years. From what I remember, it was quite good, but it never got posted, I think.
14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?
I can't possibly. I can tell you for each fandom, but I could never choose just one. I could perhaps narrow it down to Remus/Sirius and Stucky. And Ten/Rose. And Jack/Ianto. And J2. And Penthony.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
The Stucky WIP, without a doubt. It's possibly some of the best writing I've ever done. I think.
16. What are your writing strengths?
I'm definitely not saying I always hit the mark, but I do feel that whenever I've written something I'm kind of proud of, it's usually to do with explaining someone's feelings without outright stating them.
I like delving into the psychology of emotionally stunted characters and trying to convey exactly how ignorant they are about their (and others') feelings. And I think I'm usually best at that when I write dialogue.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
DESCRIPTIONS. I HATE THEM. THEY ARE THE WORST. If I get stuck on writing a chapter it is always, 100% that which I get stuck on.
Like for OLITDP, 65% of the coming chapters has been written, all through dialogue. Getting from one spoken line to the next, however, is THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
I've written a few school plays, which have been in my native tongue (Dutch) and that's okay. But it would feel weird writing dialogue in a language which is not part of the fandom. Maybe I could squeeze in a few lines of badly written French if the plot really called for it, I guess?
19. First fandom you wrote for?
Harry Potter, which was my main and only fandom for about 10 years.
20. Favorite fic you’ve written?
Maybe my Stucky WIP? There's some bits in there that are quite good.
I'm also quite proud of Be Kind, Unwind (my first J2 AU and first and only finished Big Bang) and Cut Here (a J2 version of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind).
Honourable mention to Midnight, which is a (partial and unposted) rewrite of a Harry Potter-fic I started writing almost 20 years ago. Not necessarily because it's particularly well-written, but I did enjoy taking some of my older work and rewriting it in my current style. It's kind of neat to see how my writing's evolved.
If you made it this far, thank you so much for reading my silly rants on my silly writing.
Tagging @writingwhilecaffeinated, @doom-cookie1, @princessgotham21 and @queen-of-the-wallflowers15 and everyone who feels like doing it!

As much as I can be as an asexual, yes. Here's some I remember being very attached to in a way you can most likely say I was down bad at one point or another.
Moira (Overwatch)
Junkrat (Overwatch)
Symmetra (Overwatch)
Sombra (Overwatch)
SCP-682 (SCP)
SCP-076 (SCP)
SCP-049 (SCP)
SCP-096 (SCP)

Eyeless Jack (Creepypasta)
Eve (No Straight Roads)
Neon J (No Straight Roads)
Celine (No Straight Roads)
Eloni (No Straight Roads)
Purl-Hew (No Straight Roads)
Zimelu (No Straight Roads)
Rekka (Hi Fi Rush)
Mimosa (Hi Fi Rush)
BRUT-1L (Hi Fi Rush)

Mocha Ray Cookie (Cookie Run)
Sea Fair Cookie (Cookie Run)
Bunny (OC)
Timbre (OC)

Ballora (Five Nights at Freddy's)
Antlion (Don't Starve Together)
Bee Queen (Don't Starve Together)
Treeguard (Don't Starve Together)
Level 3 Shadow Knight (Don't Starve Together)
These are all I can really think of at the moment. The level of down baddery for each is definitely a rang. But I've basically made this list under the like assumption that I was either actually down bad, had such a massive crush that I wouldn't have minded being with said character, or I just fucking love the aesthetic so much (because honestly all three of those feelings feel very similar to me).
There's probably more but this is just what I was able to come up with right now.

3 and/or 6 for the ask game!
Thank you so much for the ask!!
3. What is one scene you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all the set-up and context it would need (consider this permission to write and/or share it anyway)?
This is from a planned Dracula/TMA fusion AU (yes, another one) where Jack Seward is the Archivist. The other characters all have their places as well, but the point is that I don’t have to give the context, and I think there’s enough background woven in that it’ll make sense, so let’s just say that this was part of my reaction to loving a particular section of TMA s4 but thinking it would be even better if the person going through it actually had some support. I don’t know if I’ll ever get around to the entire canon rewrite, but either way, I’ll share this now. Here you go!
(The other answer to this question is a proper TMA/Dracula crossover where Jon Sims and Mina Harker are vampires, best friends, and hunting partners. The scene in question is one where they hunt down a victim and feed on them in an extremely polite manner. Juice and pastries are involved.)
6. What character do you have the most fun writing?
Oh, this is a tough one. I love every member of the jailbreak squad SO MUCH, whether they’re the ones I tend to relate to myself (Jon, Mike, Karolina) or the ones who are loosely inspired by or remind me of people I love (Helen, Harriet, Oliver). They all have things that make them incredibly fun to write, but at this moment… I’m gonna have to say Harriet. As a character who does technically exist in canon, but only for about ten seconds in which we learn almost nothing about her, and who I filled in and developed in ways only loosely inspired by canon, she exists in a funny gray area between canon character and OC, and I’m super proud of the way I’ve developed her as a character. She’s endlessly fascinating to me, at least partially because she’s so profoundly unlike me in so many ways—and yet we have enough things in common that I usually very much understand where she’s coming from. I also love writing her because she’s so good at what I can only describe as manipulation (value-neutral)—using her knowledge of people to persuade them to do what she would like them to do. As I mentioned in my ask answer on main, I have exactly zero ability to do this, and honestly I respect and admire the heck out of people who can do it well—especially when, like Harriet, they primarily use it for the benefit of people they care about. (Side note: the Fairchilds sometimes joke that they’re lucky their patron snapped Harriet up before the Web got to her, but the Web probably wouldn’t have been interested for the simple reason that she genuinely has no desire to use that ability to scare anyone.) It’s always a fun challenge to write characters who have skills you very much do not possess. (It’s fun in a different way to write characters who are smart in similar ways to you.) And, of course, she’s just a fun character. Some of her carefree persona is just that, but she genuinely is a cheerful, fun-loving, fairly easygoing person (depending on how you feel about heights, her idea of fun may or may not align with yours, but that’s not her problem 🙂), and a delight to write about.
Thanks again for the ask! Have a great day/night!

Chapter 10: Daniel in Danger
Not every secret can stay hidden...
Leah Nguyen is an OC created by my good friend Shima, who was gracious enough to allow me to include her in the story! Please go give Shima some love <3 Leah is from @elganac and Shima is on twitter @/ShimaVT
The ground gave way under my feet suddenly. Scrambling in a moment of panic, I found myself unable to catch the ledge, tumbling down the side of the cliff. I only managed to survive by the skin of my teeth, my hands finding purchase on a root jutting out from the cliffside. It was steep enough that if I hadn’t caught myself, I would’ve been a goner for sure. “Shit, oh shit,” were all the words I could think to say in that moment, seeing my friends look on in absolute horror as they saw me tumbling to what was almost certainly my death.
“Shit, Daniel,” Jack called out to me as he looked over the edge, “Dude are you okay?”
“Oh, yeah! Just fine,” I shouted back, “In fact, the view’s pretty nice down here, why don’t you come join me?”
“NOW IS NOT THE TIME,” Nico screeched at both of us, full blown panic on her face, “Oh my god oh my god, what do we do? Do we have a rope? No, we don’t, god, I knew we shouldn’t have traveled so far from camp! Now Daniel’s gonna die and we can’t do anything about it!”
“I’m not gonna die Nico, I’ll be fine!”
“Nothing about you says fine right now! Hang on, I’m gonna get the teacher, just wait right here!”
“Trust me, it’s not like I can go anywhere-” Wait. Of course, that’s it! “Hang on Nico, table that teacher thing for now!”
“Excuse me?? Dude, this is not the time to try and show off!”
“No, no, seriously! I have an idea… but, I need you both to trust me. Promise, you will not freak out.”
“Freak out? I’m already freaking out,” Nico’s panic was palpable. Hell, she was almost making me nervous! “What are you just gonna fuckin sprout wings or somethin??”
“JUST PROMISE!”
Nico was about to open her mouth again, but Jack placed a hand in front of it, giving her a look. “We promise.. Do whatever you gotta do..”
Okay.. Easy now Rowe, no need to panic. With where I was at now, the angle should be just right to… yes, okay, good. Just two solid leaps, and I should be back on stable ground. “Just like I practiced,” I whispered to myself.
Get the feeling back in the legs. Feet firm against the wall. Focus… and-
I let go.
Despite Nico’s sudden scream, I maintain that focus. Feel the pressure build under my feet, and-
THOOM.
Suddenly I’m in the air. Everything is dead silent after that thunderous boom of my kickoff, and it’s just me, and the wind. I landed on a nearby cliff, about twenty feet up from where I was, on the opposite end of the ravine. Good.
I crouched down, feeling that pressure build up again. I let loose-
KRACK
The ground cracks underneath my feet as I leap into the air, clearing not only the gap across to my friends, but making it up another thirty or so feet, landing squarely next to them, brushing myself off.
Their mouths are agape, slack-jawed, staring at me as they get their first look at my abilities that I’d tried so hard to hide from everyone, for all these years. That super strength I’d been blessed with at birth, finally coming out in front of anyone.
Jack was the first to speak up, “So.. since when the hell can you do that?”
“Uh… since… I dunno, since forever? I was… born with these powers, Jack.”
“BORN with them? Bro, I’ve known you since we were like, six, and you didn’t think to bring up the fact that you’re a fuckin superhero?”
“I try not to bring attention to it. I don’t wanna be treated differently because of my powers.”
“Hang on,” Nico piped up, “But you play baseball. You could be the top player if you’ve got super strength. You’re not even in the top ten.”
“I hold back. Like I said, I try not to draw attention to them, so.. I hold back. Like, a lot. I mean, I had thought about, maybe senior year, giving it a little extra in baseball, really make this school remember me, y’know? But, for now, I just use plain old normal strength.”
“So.. how strong is super strong to you, exactly?” Nico seemed more curious than Jack. But, I owed them some answers, I suppose.
“Uh… I never really measured the extent of it, but I know I can lift two of those old cars in the junkard with one hand.. My top running speed measures out at about fifty miles an hour… what else… oh, and I can heal super fast. Nasty cuts last a couple hours… broken bones, maybe a day at most. Never been too keen to measure how far that one goes. Getting hurt sucks.”
“So, back in eighth grade when you broke your arm and wore a cast all that time?”
I shrug, “Fake. Had to keep up appearances.”
They looked like they were about to ask about a thousand more questions before we heard a twig snap behind us. My head whipped around to see the source. Shit, who else could have possibly… oh no.
There she was. Leah Nguyen…With her beautiful brown eyes and her- no, wait, focus Rowe! How long has she been there? How much did she see? Her mouth was just as wide open as Jack and Nico’s… don’t tell me she saw-
Nico turned to Jack, “Grab her.”
Jack nodded, walking toward Leah with a weirdly menacing gait.
“Wait, hold on-” Leah tried to protest, but it was too late. Jack had grabbed her, covering her mouth with his hand before Nico and him dragged her away to somewhere more remote.
“Wait, guys!” I called out to them, “Why the hell are you two being so damn ominous?” I followed, making sure they weren’t about to do something really stupid. That was my department.

Modern AU Part 2!
So remember how in part one I mentioned that there is a North and South Hyrule Field and that I have a couple of OC's(original characters) that I am throwing into the Modern AU well I'm going to talk about that and all the others that are in the AU in a bit
But to start Heights Ages and Names first let's do the names, yes names, so like obviously names like Time, Twilight, Legend those are all nicknames do they respond to them yes because their nicknames and everyone that has a nickname responds to a nickname but here is my personal opinion on what everyone's names actually are and this only applies to the chain not the zeldas now moving on
Time: his real name is Tony, yes Tony I actually sit around thinking about it for a while and for some reason it just fits to me, so this makes his actually full name Tony Thymons yes Thymons is his last name....... I think it's funny
Twilight: Travis, this boy was born and grew up in the country even before he was adopted by Time and Malon, and I will not accept him being named anything that is not a name you would typically find in the country
Warriors: Max, idk he just looks like a max to me also he reminds me a little bit of a character named Max from the original Beyblade series
Wild: oh my gosh I spent more time thinking about what this boy's name would be than I did Time's, and honestly it took me quite a bit but after thinking it over I decided Chase was a very good name for him
Sky: Sam, Sam is a simple easy name and I just feel like simple and easy fits Sky so well
Four: this was another one that was tough to decide on but after re-reading Linked Universe all the way up to the latest update my mind decided that Victor suited him so yeah
Wind: for this AU I have a personal little thing where I imagine that his grandpa was a sailor named Jack and that he is named after his grandpa so his name is Jack
Legend: Jason, I just feel like the name Jason fits him so well
Hyrule: Joey, I don't know he just looks like a Joey to me
Okay so now Ages and Heights, for the ages and the Heights I'm actually going to include Fable, Flora and Aryll because why not
Time: 38 to 43, and I'm going to say he's anywhere from 6'5 to 6'7 because this man is tall I mean we've all seen him stand next to the rest of the chain he makes literally all of them look small
Twilight: he's about 22 to 23 and this boy is also tall not as tall as Time but still in the over 6 ft range but he's probably 6'2 or 6'3 because we see that he's at least a good 3 or 4 maybe 5 inches shorter then Time is
Warriors: 21 to 22 this boy is 6 ft even and thank hylia for that because everyone else in the house thinks that there's too many tall people
Sky: 23 to 24 and he is either 5'10 or 5'11 either way he's not that much shorter than Warriors
Wild: 17 he has one more year until graduation and he will not let anyone forget this, he's 5'8
Hyrule: 19 to 20, he's either 5'7 Or 5'9 and that's only because I can't decide if he should be shorter then Wild or taller than him
Legend: 20 to 21, he is 5'5, also his height might be partially me projecting on to him since he's one of my favorites and I am also 5'5
Wind: 13 to 14, 5'2 or 5'3 and still growing
Four: 18 to 19 and he is 5 ft even
Fable: 20 to 21, she is 5'4 and a half like seriously she is barely barely shorter than Legend
Flora: 17 like Wild she also does not let anyone forget she has one more year until she graduates, she's 5'9 yes she is taller than Wild buy one inch but she is still taller than him and whenever he annoys her she annoys him back by reminding him of this
Aryll: 6 to 7, she is 4'1, but she's also really energetic so it makes up for it
Now moving on to more important things
North Hyrule Field High and South Hyrule Field High have a competition going on between the two schools this means competing against each other in everything from basketball to cheerleading and let's not forget the great Romeo Juliet off of 2001 (Malon was Juliet and Time was Romeo for South Hyrule Field High)
Of course this makes for some very interesting things like Twilight actually met Midna because he had to go to a basketball game because Warriors plays basketball and no one can tell me different and Midna was actually drug there by a friend of hers and the two started talking and then found out that they were from two different schools Twilight from South Hyrule High and Midna from North Hyrule High, and yes Midna and Twilight are dating no one knows how it happened but it happened
Also North Hyrule Field University and South Hyrule Field University are just as bad about competing with each other as the high schools are
Sky's girlfriend Sun(his Zelda) attends North Hyrule Field University, while Sky attends South Hyrule Field University he is both okay and not okay with this he picked the university that was closest to his family but at the same time he really wishes he was going to the same University as his girlfriend because he really loves her and wishes they could spend more time together even though they study together and work together and she spends so much time at Lon-Lon Ranch that people are starting to think that Sun lives there
Anyways the ones that I live in and attend either school or university in South Hyrule Field are as follows
(Obviously Time and Malon live in South Hyrule Field since that's where Lon-Lon Ranch is and Time is the sheriff of South Hyrule Field so won't be counting them on this list)
Okay so we're going to start with the chain and the girls or as I like to call them "Time and Malon's cluster of Chaos Gremlins" okay so from oldest to youngest let's go
Sky: despite attending University for a while he doesn't actually have and set major or minor he's like one of those University students that's basically taking classes for a little bit of everything
Twilight: he's majoring in agriculture yep the dude that lives on a ranch and does farm work EVERYDAY is majoring in agriculture, however one of his miners is architecture
Warriors: got into University on basketball scholarships but is studying and majoring in theater/drama/acting
Legend: he's studying music, mythology and weapons yes weapons like weapons throughout history he's studying that I feel like we should all be concerned
Fable: girl is majoring in both history and mythology, and Legend always makes sure to sit on the far side of the room away from her
Hyrule: he is studying to become a doctor and no one can convince me otherwise
Four: he's studying history, philosophy and hylian( you know how we have English class it's like that) but he's only majoring in history and philosophy
Wild: he is still in high school with one more year until he graduates and he is looking forward to that last year
Flora: also in high school and looking forward to graduating since there's only a year left until her and Wild do but she's excited to graduate and go to college Wild just wants out of high school
Wind: middle school but wishes he was in high school despite all of his older siblings telling him it's not as great as he thinks it will be
Aryll: Elementary School she enjoys it she has friends and she is still talking about the trip to the zoo that trip was 3 months ago
Now on to the other people
Sheik(Time's Zelda): has extremely good music knowledge especially when it comes to instruments and singing literally could have been a music teacher but instead is a fighting instructor who owns thier own gym oh and they use she/they pronouns, also they're like one of Time's best friends
Minnie(Four's Zelda): also before anyone says I'm calling her Minnie because of the Minish Cap no your wrong I'm calling her Minnie after Minnie Mouse anyways she's attending South Hyrule University and is majoring in philosophy and hylian alongside Four
Tetra(Wind's Zelda): she has played everything from football to baseball to basketball she likes Sports, her and Wind have been friends since kindergarten and obviously in Middle School
Artemis(Warriors Zelda): she is majoring in science and art but she's also on the University's baseball team and she's possibly in love with Warriors no one can really tell
Mipha: friends with Flora and Wild also in high school and is one year away from graduating she is captain of the swim team also she has a crush on Wild but hasn't confessed to him yet Flora has told her she definitely should though
Okay so now I'm going to talk about the two OC's that I have in this AU and then we will move on to the people that are in North Hyrule Field
Okay so my OC's are Revia and Romi
Revia is Romi's mom and she owns like the best store in town because her store is not just a hardware store and a farm supply store like where you can get feed for your livestock and everything(think like a mixture between Home Depot and Tractor Supply) it is also a clothing store and it always has the most up-to-date fashion as well as some fashion choices from like back in the day, everyone loves to shop there Twilight also works there so does Hyrule, Flora and Legend
Romi is as previously mentioned Revia's daughter she's 21 to 22 about 5'9 or 5'10, and she's attending South Hyrule Field University she's studying the "Fine Arts" like filmography, photography, acting, costume design you name it she's most likely taking a class for it she also works at her mom's store and like Sky's girlfriend Sun, Romi spends so much time at Lon-Lon Ranch hanging out with her friends that people are starting to think that she lives there it doesn't help that she does spend the night sometimes (I might draw pictures of Revia and Romi later but idk)
Now on to North Hyrule Field
Revali: this dude has moved around so much also currently attending North Hyrule Field University before that he was attending South Hyrule Field High, he graduated a year before Wild, he's originally from Rito Town, but move to South Hyrule Field around high school and for some reason took an instant dislike to Wild as soon as they met no one knows why after graduation decide to go to North Hyrule Field University where he is currently living in a dorm Hylia I feel sorry for his roommates
Sun: Sky's girlfriend, going to University for religious studies, also her and Sky have been a thing since like Middle School Sky might not be Time's Kid by Blood but he is following in his dad's footsteps, her and Sky text and call every minute they're apart unless they're in class but if they're not in class and they are not with each other they are to either texting or calling there is no in between
Ravio: Legend's friend that attends North Hyrule Field University, no one knows what he's majoring in but he does hang around the ranch a lot
Other people that live in other places in Hyrule that are in this AU
Llia: Twilight's best friend she was suspicious of Midna the entire time that Midna and Twilight were dating, she actually ended up developing a dislike towards midna because Midna moved away without telling Twilight and broke up with him before that but wouldn't tell him why(although Twilight insists that Midna must have had her reasons for what she did) once she was old enough which started in Middle School every summer she would get a job working at Lon-Lon Ranch this continued through high school and is still going on every summer she gets a job working at the ranch also possibly had a crush on Twilight at one point, she lives in Ordon Town which according to her isn't that very far of a drive from Ordon Town to South Hyrule Field Twilight thinks otherwise and that she should stop trying to make that trip at night
Saria: Time's childhood best friend who lives in Kokiri Town, and is actually ordained, she was the one that officiated Time and Malon's wedding, the cluster of chaos gremlins call her Aunt Saria
Urbosa: mayor of Gerudo town, she's also a licensed therapist she is also the best at getting gifts for people like she always knows what to get someone Flora calls her auntie
Riju: Urbosa's daughter who admires wild way too much like seriously someone please stop this kid from trying to act like him
And now that all that is out of the way on to more random stuff about the AU
Time and Malon own a van that is big enough for all of their kids and Wolfie plus any friends that those kids might want to bring along (*cough* Sun *cough*)
The older kids carpool to University like they all have their own trucks cars Etc but they will stand in front of their bedroom doors in the hallway at night after they get done eating dinner and doing any chores that might need done and discuss whose car are they taking to University tomorrow, also who carpools and who doesn't depends on who has work and who doesn't the ones that have work after University usually take a separate car than the ones that don't
Remember in part 1 when I said that time thought the puppy that was with Twilight was going to be a small dog....... yeah he actually regrets saying the words "oh come on how big could it actually get" because Wolfie is massive Twilight has a full size bed and that dog takes up most of it like you walk into Twilight's room to wake him up of a morning(on the extremely rare occasion when he sleeps in) and you can barely tell he's there because of how big Wolfie is
However Wolfie does not always sleep in Twilight's room or bed if one of the other kids has had a bad day then Wolfie sleeps in their room
Four, Sky and Aryll are the only ones that don't have to share a room with anyone
The ones that do have to share rooms are Warriors and Wind, Legend and Hyrule, Twilight and Wild, and of course Fable and Flora
Sky's the oldest so he does not have to share a room with anyone Four doesn't share room with anyone because he cannot sleep if he's in a room with other people
And because Aryll is the youngest she gets the room closest to Time and Malon also known as the room that no one else wanted to be in
Every single person in the house listens to different kinds of music you can walk up the stairs and every bedroom will be playing different music that's not even counting the fact that Malon in the kitchen is playing different music than what the kids are playing in their rooms (I'll talk more about the music thing in part 3 because oh boy do I have so many thoughts on what everyone listens to)
However on the flip side of that Time doesn't usually play or put on any music he usually just listens to whatever someone else is playing this man will listen to any kind of music really
Legend will only wear pants if it is cold however if you take him to the beach you can talk him into wearing swim trunks
Everyone was taught how to ride a horse on Epona, also everyone has their own horse including Twilight Twilight has a Epona the II
The only ones that actually likes taking care of the cucco's is Sky and Malon, Time will take care of them but he does not like to the others try to avoid it at all costs
Flora has on more than one occasion try to get at least one of her brother's to eat a live frog, none of them would she stopped when she eventually got in trouble, so she started putting them in their beds instead, but only when they annoyed her or made her mad
Fable makes up the best bedtime stories and no one can convince me otherwise
Twilight and Malon are the only ones with country/southern accents a lot of people in the town have trouble understanding them at times but the whole family understands understand what they say without any trouble
All of the kids actually love helping Malon in the kitchen but some are better at cooking and baking than others
All of them including Time can either sing dance or play musical instruments, and Malon loves how Lively the house is when they all decide to do this at the same time
All of the kids have asked Time to sing them to sleep at some point in while growing up, Aryll still asks him to so does Wind but that's a secret so don't tell anyone.
Okay so now it is time to wrap this up because I think this one might actually be longer than the last one I might be wrong but don't worry I am going to be making a part 3, also I'm going to try to get part 3 to be more storytelling or at least formatted in a similar way that part 1 was and I'll probably be making a lot more parts to follow after that one, anyways I hope everyone thinks that this one is okay
Oh and if you have any questions about the Modern AU or anything like that or any suggestions for it feel free to leave your suggestions or ask me questions
(@merriclo here's part 2! 😊 also I'm really glad that you liked part 1 I'm most likely going to make a lot more parts to this, if you want me to keep tagging you let me know I'd be happy to do so I'm just glad someone likes this little AU and thought I had in my head as much as I do)
Modern AU Part 1

Viv - Pierre Gasly x OC part 1
masterlist
word counts: 571 (small one x)
Pairing: Pierre gasla xx fem!reader warnings: minor cursing, age gap?(3/4 years) Characters:
(OC)Viv Elizabeth van Hout (she/her)
Pierre Gasly
Charles Leclerc (mentioned)
This is fiction, nothing here is real, this takes place in 2022, not hate to Ferrari nor their team and everyone who worked there
2 am
I finally reached  my hotel where I stayed for work, my jacked it soaked from the rain. The lady behind the desks looks disgusted at me.
I take the electric up to my room (12th floor). Just before the doors close I see a man running toward it. I put my feet between the doors and they open again.
The man looks at me and I just felt weird. I know him from work, Please don’t make this awkward.
“Hey is everything okay miss?” He asked 
“Yeh I’m okay -“  my sentence is cut off as the elevator stops and the lights turn down. It’s not dark just enough light to see.
Looks like we are going to be here for awhile the man says.
“Ugh I can’t do this today, I have work tomorrow and I have to finish some stuff for tomorrow.” Viv says annoyed.
‘What kind of work if I may ask” the man says. “I have to write about like how the race went etc ‘ yeh I know wo you are Pierre” I say laughing. Try
“Wait c1? you work for Ferrari right?”  Viv looks past him as she answers “well yeh I do but I won’t soon, they fired me after I said that they should have a better strategy. I Just find it shit how they just Ugh, im sorry Pierre I shouldn’t annoy you with this”
He looks at her with a little smile, knowing he could offer her a job and says “well looks like we have a while until they fix the elevator so tell me”
Viv is quiet for a minute, can she trust the Alpha Tauri Driver with Ferrari news? 
“I find it shit how they treat Charles and Carlos, if hey had a better strategy and would just listen to the drivers they could’ve won the championship. And someone overheard me talking about it to my ex and told the HQ. So that same day they called me into the office and just straight up fired me.
Viv’s eyes started to water and Pierre put his arm around her.
“Hey, they don’t know what they’re missing, I talk to Charles all the time and he thinks it’s BS what Ferrari told u. So now, what are you going to do with life?”
“I have been thinking about going to college, since I’m about to turn 21 I can still go. I have still have the money, I didn’t go 2 years ago because I took a gap year and then I got offered this job. So today was my last day in Monaco, My flight back home goes tomorrow. So I have exactly 7 hours left until my flight goes. Viv says
Pierre keeps looking at Viv
 It’s something about her, he read her work multiple times and he loves the way she writes. Not only did he read her reports, he also read her book. But she doesn’t know that and he wants to keep it that way.
“How about we go to my room, don’t take it in a weird way please. But, we go to my room, u freshen up, I order some room service and we’ll watch a movie. When this elevator gets fixed.” He says
doubt it for a seconds but says yes, as she answers the elevator moves again and they both go to the 12th floor and the two went to Pierre his room

Hmmmmm
Spy borrower au!
Besides Techno, who else is on the spy squad? Is it a international or national thing? maybe the cold war setting for some extra james bond style angst of the peace depending on them getting the info, dispite Tinies defs not being as patriotic as humans im guessing.
Also, is training all Techno has ever known? Like the red rooms of the black widow? Or is their some past atleast without training, also how old is he? Don't think the organization cares all that much about their age of maturity 😅
Just throwing out some prompts, i am very bored, and all i got is access to wifi and nothing else😑
But i love sending asks here! Get the creative juices flowing🙃
hellooo !!
mm yes i don't talk abt this au enough,,,
okay for the fbi itself (this au takes place in the us cause the fbi is mainly there and i don't want to do any more research than i have to lmaoo) there are quite a few tiny agents, karl and george come up the most. george is actually the reason behind this whole thing staring. i have a prologue in the works but dream and george met when they were young. like, young young. think 3-5
george came from a colony and wandered off during a borrowing trip with an adult (irresponsible adult mind you) and accidentally let dream discover him because he was being too curious)
anyways
skeppy is on, ant, sam, hannah, jack, eret, callahan is there but sticks to himself most of the time, tubbo but he builds stuff he doesn't go into the field like ever, fundy, ranbooo <3, phil and then connor :) (there's more but those're background ppl like yk ocs or whatever. insignificant as of now)
i'm actually clueless with where to put wil. do i make him a part of the bad guys or have him be a human fbi agent? i want him big but what field do i put him in????
this is an international thing, like pretty much everywhere has at least a local station with 1-2 tinies working for them,,,
this whole thing is pretty recent because i'm scrambling to make sure george is a reasonable age (ps. he's 27 in this & dream is 25)
the government-tiny thing started in 1999-2001 soo there hasn't been too much conflict as of them starting the whole deal,,,
yep techno hasn't really had enough time to enjoy life, his childhood was filled with fake missions and weapons, which is a good partof the reason why he's emotionally unavailable and overall a very boring person (on the outside, he's still a geek on the inside :])
yess i love the red rooms metaphor. also think lila in the umbrella academy,,,
techno is 19 in this so he was born into the fbi place like he has only known government since he grew up. (so i can avoid writing new characters his mother died during childbirth :'D) (this is completely clashing with techno----for consistency lets say techno has some secret plan to annihilate the government)
yeah no they could care less abt how old someone is. they recruited george and started working on him when he was 5, like c'mon---
thank you for all of these, they're so fun to answer!! they take my mind off things which i love. aaand speaking of which i'm 11 minutes late to class from answering this but it was worth it :D

Weekend WIP Game
Rules: List your WIPs below (if you only write one fic at a time, feel free to include future WIPs/ideas!) then answer the following questions. Then, tag as many people as you have WIPs (or more)
Tagging: @sinderellanightwolf, @nextstopwonderland & whoever else wants to play
1. WIP List
- Rock and a Hard Place - Eddie Diaz/Evan Buckley
- Friends Don’t -Eddie Diaz/Evan Buckley
- Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start with B -Eddie Diaz/Evan Buckley
- Goes Like This - Eddie Diaz/Evan Buckley
- In Case You Didn’t Know - Eddie Diaz/Evan Buckley
- Doing Something Stupid - Roman Reigns/Dean Ambrose/Seth Rollins
- Five More Minutes - Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams
- For You - Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams
- The One - Jack Dalton/Angus MacGyver
- Words I Couldn’t Say - Jack Dalton/Angus MacGyver
- Once Upon A Never Again (or at least that’s what I keep telling myself) [Ambrollintyre]
- It Ain’t My Fault - Ryan Wolfe/Eric Delko
- Rumor - Maddie Buckley/Howie “Chimney” Han
- This is what forever feels like - Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams
2. Which of your WIPs is currently the longest?
- Five More Minutes. It’s like 1500 words right now and it’s nowhere close to being finished
3. Which WIP do you expect to end up the longest?
- Either Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start With B, Friends Don’t or Five More Minutes
4. Which WIP is your favorite to write/most enjoyable to write? Why?
- Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start With B. It’s Buck accidentally acquiring a baby and Eddie coming along for the ride. Buck pulls an Eddie Diaz and baby traps Eddie. I mean the idea of Buck babytrapping Eddie is fun to explore plus dad Buck is adorable.
5. Which WIP do you find the most intimidating to write? Why?
- Once Upon A Never Again (or at least that’s what I keep telling myself) because I’ve never written Drew McIntyre before nor have I written a story where it’s 2 separate relationships becoming a single relationship. Dean & Drew are like polar opposites and there’s a lot of arguing about who knows Seth the best.
6. Which WIP do you experience the most self-doubt about? Why?
- For You or This is what forever feels like because there’s a great deal of PTSD and I’m not overly familiar with either in the context of the stories.
7. Which of your WIPs will you seek out a beta/sensitivity reader for? Why?
- probably none of them. Literally because I have no idea who I’d ask
8. Have any of your WIPs been struck by the curse of writer's block?
- yes literally all of them that aren’t related to 9-1-1 🤣🥴
9. Which WIP has your favourite OC? Tell us about them?
- none of them so far have OCs
10. Which WIP is the sexiest?
- Smut? None of them because I suck at writing it. But I have to say that Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start with B is hands down because Evan Buckley with a baby is hot as hell.
11. Which WIP is the angstiest?
- Words I Couldn’t Say because it’s all told from Mac’s POV with Jack leaving for the Kovacs mission
12. Which WIP has the best characterisation (in your humble opinion)?
- Friends Don’t or Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start with B
13. Which WIP has the best scene setting (in your humble opinion)?
- Five More Minutes
14. Which WIP have you worked the hardest on?
- Friends Don’t & Once Upon A Never Again (or at least that’s what I keep telling myself)
15. Which WIP do you have the highest expectations for? Why?
- Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start With B
16. Do you dream about any of your WIPs?
- Yes, Friends Don’t
17. Do any of your WIPs have particular complexities that your other fics don't?
- For You or This is what forever feels like because there’s a great deal of PTSD and I’m not overly familiar with either in the context of the stories. (Yes I’m repeating an answer)
18. Which WIP is the funniest or has the most humour?
- Babies, Boyfriends and Other Things That Start With B
19. Do any of your WIPs contain outside POVs or a deep dive on a character other than the main ship? How are you finding that process?
- Once Upon A Never Again (or at least that’s what I keep telling myself) Roman has a bit of dialogue
20. Tell us one thing we don't know about one or more of your WIPs.
- They are/were all hyperfixations 🤣🙃

Hotshot Part 4 - Waffles
Aaron Hotchner x Fem!Army!OC - Fluff
tags: @rousethemouse @hotchgan​ @hotchnerxo​ @chaoticconnoisseurgiver​
Warnings: None that I can think of
Notes: Basically just meeting Jack, but also other stuff lol. Also a long one. The long awaited part 4, hoping to draft part 5 soon as well, which will more than likely be the last part in this series. Let me know what you think. Gif isn’t mine
Part 1 here - Part 2 here - Part 3 here
Tumblr media
Aaron woke up to weight on his chest and opened his eyes to find Jack sitting there staring down at him. 
“Daddy, your alarm has been going off literally forever.” Literally forever had been his favorite thing to say recently.
“You know you staring at me is very creepy.” Jack grinned, holes where some of his teeth were still missing or growing in. 
“You said we have big plaaaaans,” he said, flopping to the side and starfishing out as Aaron reached to his bedside table to turn off his alarm. He had a text from Willow that had been sent an hour ago. 
“We do, why don’t  you go get dressed in jeans and a shirt and we’ll head out soon.” Jack nodded, bouncing up and down a few times before dashing off. 
“And don’t forget a sweatshirt, it’s cold out!” 
“Okaaaay.” Aaron looked at his phone again, reading the text. 
Willow Cutler: Back from the gym. Ready to go when you are. 
He shot back that they would be ready soon before getting out of bed and starting to get dressed. It had only been a few months now since they had met again, but the engagement ring he had kept for her was sitting on his dresser. He looked at it for a moment before picking up the challenge coin beside it and going to check on Jack. He had jeans on, but was rifling through his drawers for a shirt. 
“C’mon buddy, what color do you want to wear at least?” Aaron helped him pick out a shirt, but when Jack put it on he noticed a grass stain. 
“I can’t wear that one,” he said, hurriedly going back to try to find another.
“Why not? It’s ok if its a little dirty.” Aaron pointed out that he was wearing a t-shirt and a sweatshirt as well. 
“I want your friend to like me.” Aaron couldn’t help but smile. 
“I promise she’s going to like you anyway. But let’s find one you want to wear.” Jack finally settled on an orange and black Star Wars one that was the match to the shirt Aaron was wearing. He put on a hoodie over it from his soccer team before grabbing socks and following Aaron out to the car. Aaron texted Willow that they were on their way before starting the car. It wasn’t a long ride. 
“Where are we going? It’s not too far right? I still have to go to practice later, remember?” Aaron nodded, catching his eye in the review. 
“I know buddy, we’re just going to get breakfast.” 
“Oh YEAH!” Jack yelled, sticking his hand out the window. It was a little chilly out, getting closer to the fall, but the sun was shining and it really was a perfect day for his soccer practice. They arrived at the diner pretty quickly. Jack and him went there often when Aaron had time off and Jack hopped out of the car on his own and raced to the door. Willow was leaning against the front of her car and looking at her phone when the car pulled up, and had watched the boy bolt for the door. 
“Likes breakfast?” She asked, walking up to where Aaron had stopped to make sure the car was locked. 
“Loves it. Waffles though, not pancakes.” She grinned, and Aaron gave a small sigh of defeat. 
“Yes, I know. They’re better because of the-”
“Pockets of goodness!” Willow finished. 
“Jack, bud, this is my friend Willow. We’ve known each other for a long long time.” Jack looked up at her and stuck out his hand. 
“Nice to meet you.” She shook it and smiled. 
“Quite the gentleman. It’s nice to meet you, Jack. Your dad has said a lot about you the last couple weeks.” Aaron went to open the door and just barely caught the boy saying, “Dad has a picture of you on the wall in his room.” Aaron squeezed his eyes shut and pulled the door open, a blush taking over his face. Jack skipped in, going straight to the hostess. Willow gave him a smirk as she stepped by him. 
“A picture of me, huh?” 
“Yes, I do have a picture of you and me.” Aaron’s hand rested on her lower back as they walked, following Jack and the hostess to one of the booths. 
Breakfast was easy, and Jack took to Willow immediately, fascinated by the few stories she told about Aaron when they were younger and the fact that she had been in the Army with Aaron. He asked a million questions a minute until he got his waffles and then things quieted down, Aaron tapping his knee against Willow’s as they ate. 
“Do you want to come to my soccer practice?” Jack asked while he stole bacon off Aaron’s plate. Willow’s eyebrows went up and she looked to Aaron, who gave a small ‘its up to you’ shrug.
“You can practice with me too! We always get there early so dad and I can run around,” Jack continued, then in a poor stage whisper said, “He’s not very good.” Willow grinned. 
“He never was. And sure, I’ll come.” Jack clapped excitedly, and continued to talk about his soccer team and about all the people on the team. She drove her own car over to the apartment complex, and for the first time entered Aaron’s new home. As they walked up the stairs, Aaron could remember the first time he had gone to her house, later than he had hoped after over two years together. 
Aaron hopped out of the blue pickup, checking himself in the side mirror before going up to the door. He could hear barking inside, and he knocked twice before taking a step back. A burly man opened the door, surveying Aaron with careful eyes. 
“Hello, sir. Aaron Hotchner.” The man’s eyes narrowed, but he reached out and shook Aaron’s extended hand. 
“C’mon in.” They stepped into the house and Aaron was immediately accosted by two large German Shepards, which came to sniff every inch of him they could reach. 
“Willow, the boy’s here,” her father called up the stairs as he walked past. 
“A drink?” he asked him. 
“Uh, no sir, I’m not old enough yet.” The man nodded as he made his way into the kitchen that Aaron could see down the hall, leaving Aaron alone with the dogs. 
“Sadie, get off’im,” Willow’s voice came, and Aaron turned to see her coming down the stairs.  Her hair was down in loose waves, and she hopped off the last step into his arms. It was the first time they had been apart for any length of time since they met. Aaron squeezed her tight, face buried in her shoulder. 
“I missed you.” 
“I missed you too,” she said quietly. He set her down, careful of the dogs, and she led the way further back in the house.
Aaron unlocked the door, and Jack raced in, turning a corner and disappearing.
“Welcome to the Hotchner residence.” To Willow’s surprise, in the back corner on a shelf, the first thing that caught her eye, was a number of things from their army days, including a framed photo of their unit. The living room was cluttered with children’s things, but it looked lived in and clean.
“What?” Aaron asked, as she stood looking around the apartment, just inside the doorway. She looked at him, a smirk on her face. 
“What?” he asked again, stepping closer to her so he could press a kiss to her lips. It felt like he had so many more to make up for. 
“You don’t see it?” she asked, taking a step in and peeking into the kitchen as well. 
“No?” 
“So you didn’t intentionally set up your living room exactly like ours was?” Aaron looked around and froze after a moment of thinking back to what their living room had looked like. He didn’t think of himself as sentimental all that much, but apparently his subconscious was. The TV was across the les wide part of the room from the TV and along the back wall there was two bookshelves around the window, with a small bench under it littered with a number of Jack’s things on it. Still, it was exactly the same as their old house. 
“I guess... I d-” Willow cut him off with a kiss, arms wrapped around his neck. Aaron’s hands slipped to her waist, tugging her closer. When he pulled away from her lips, he pressed his face into her shoulder, arms wrapping all the way around her and pulling him flush against her. Willow’s eyes closed, fingers running through the hair at the back of his neck. It was still short like he kept it when he was in the Army. Aaron didn’t want to let go. He could feel the last time he hugged her, the last time he hugged Haley. Those last moments with both of them had destroyed him, but he told himself this time he wouldn’t he holding Willow’s body for the last time. He wouldn’t let her away from him ever again. 
Both of them pulled away with tears in their eyes, and Willow used her thumbs to swipe his off his cheeks, her mascara already running. He kissed her softly, then pressed his forehead to hers. 
“I love you.” 
“I love you too, Aaron.” Once they finally pulled away from each other, Aaron couldn’t take his hand from her side as they walked around the small apartment. 
“Alright, you gotta let go of me so I can use the bathroom and fix my face.” Aaron grabbed her waist, spinning her into his chest. 
“There’s nothing wrong with your face.” He kissed her, and let her go, peeking into Jack’s room to make sure he was almost ready. 
“Can you get me an extra water bottle today, dad? I ran out last time.” Aaron nodded and headed to the kitchen. One cold water bottle was in the fridge already, but Aaron put ice and water in another, tucking them into Jack’s soccer bag and checking that his cleats were in there as well. He went back to the kitchen to grab some snacks and water for him and Willow. 
Willow stepped out of the bathroom, watching Aaron head back into the small kitchen, and then took another step across the hall into Aaron’s bedroom. It wasn’t big. Jack had gotten the better end of the deal, and clearly Aaron had given him the master bedroom of the apartment. They had talked about Jack, about Aaron’s life with Haley, about all of his guilt. He was carrying so much, and doing it all alone. There was a picture of Aaron and herself in the room, one of the photos they’d taken after their engagement. The room itself was just as she expected. The bed was made neatly, with a few clothes tossed on top of the dresser. Aside from a single glass of water on the nightstand, the room was clean. 
“Whatcha doin?” Willow turned to see Jack standing in the door. 
“Just looking. Ready for practice?” The boy nodded. He was wearing what looked like a practice jersey, bright orange with a soccer ball on the front and a number on the back. He was holding a soccer ball, and she gestured for him to toss it to her. 
“Dad says no soccer in the house.” 
“He can’t tell me not to,” Willow said with a grin, taking the ball and dribbling it past Jack into the hall. He came up around her and managed to get the ball from her, and he burst into laughter, running up the hall while moving the ball between his feet. 
“Hey! What did I say about soccer in the house?” Aaron exclaimed, seeing them come up the hall. 
“Sorry, my fault,” Willow said, suppressing a smile. He tried to look angry at her, but he couldn’t manage it, especially not with the huge grin on Jack’s face. 
“Alright, no more though. Come on, we got to get out of here.” 
“I just need to grab a jacket from my car,” Willow said as they got outside. She jogged off while Aaron got Jack and his bag situated in the car. 
“Daddy?” 
“Yeah, what’s up buddy?” 
“Are you going to marry Willow?” Aaron turned to look at his son, spotting Willow running back to them with the jacket in hand. 
“If it’s alright with you Jack, I think I will.”
