[house-of-slayterr]

beloved 🥺

im normally not the one to come knocking, asking for comfort, but i truly had the worst day at work today (plus, it was a late shift). may i ask for a lil comfort with hannibal or halsin? 🥺🌻

if you wanna hug me, you gotta scrape me off the floor first /j slkfjskdfj

thank you so much for just reading this. absolutely no pressure!!

i love you and i hope your day was/will be good!!

Noooo wifey, who hurt you?! I’ll eat them! I’m sorry you had a bad day at work. Sending every hug in the world, I’ll get a nice new shovel to scrape you off the floor.

Of course you can have some Halsin and Hannibal comfort 🥰

Halsin:

You come back to camp after a long stressful day hard at work. Nothing seemed to go right, and the more the day went on you just wanted to curl up into a ball and hide yourself away. The hours ticked on until the sun started to set and it was finally time to rest for the evening. Hang up your aching bones on the shelf and just become a sleepy pile of mush.

At least, that was your plan, until something, or more aptly, someone caught your attention.

“Pretty flower come look” his voice calls as he spots you.

It’s something he’s taken to calling you, your beauty reminding him of the flowers from back home. And the minute he saw that smile on your face, and the blush in your checks the first time he called you it, he knew it would stick. You were his pretty flower, and he was your handsome bear. Something so simply it seemed everyone in the world understood besides the two of you.

You saunter over to him, and he’s yet to notice your sour demeanour.

“My pretty flower, look, I’ve found the most beautiful little duckling. He’s got spots”

Halsin holds out his hand to let you see the small creature, looking even smaller in his arms.

“Very cute” you reply half hearted.

He frowns, setting the duckling on his shoulder and cups your face in his hands.

“My precious petal, what’s wrong?”

“Hard day” you shrug.

Halsins frown deepens and he bends down to kiss your forehead.

“I’m sorry things are hard sometimes, but you’re the strongest person I’ve ever met. If anyone can handle a bad day with grace, it’s you. But would you like to know something else?”

“What’s that?” You look up at him.

“Even the strongest warriors are better together than alone. Consider my evening yours. Whatever makes you happy we shall do.”

“Halsin you don’t have to-“

“Nonsense my dear. You deserve the world on a platter, anything less I simply won’t allow. Let me spoil you rotten, with praise, and affection and a sense of adventure. Allow me to make you feel much better.”

“That’s very kind of you Hal”

You warp your arms around his torso and give him a tight squish. A deep chuckle rumbles in his chest as he hugs you back, before scooping you into his arms.

“Tonight I’ll treat you like a princess, and if you’ll allow me, I’d make you my queen forever.”

He presses a gentle kiss to your lips when he see no protest in your eyes or body language. And he pulls away smiling.

“You are my heart, pretty flower, let me fill yours with love. No more thinking tonight. You just relax while I take care of you.”

Hannibal:

Hannibal heard the sound of the door open before you even had your coat off. He takes off his reading glasses and sets them on his desk, getting up to come greet you.

“Evening my love” he says when he sees you, but his face instantly drops reading your body language. “What happened?”

“Just work stuff, it’s stupid” you try to brush off.

“Now dove” he gently grabs your chin making you look at him, “you know better than to lie to me. Tell me what’s going on in that pretty head of yours darling.”

You give a heavy sigh, it almost impossible to say no to the charming man before you. He takes your hand bringing you to come sit on the couch, his hand comfortingly stoke your thigh as he listens to you rant about your day.

You can see his jaw tense occasionally in distaste about the travesties of your day.

“I think you’re too good for that place” he admits with no shame or guilt.

Why would he, he thinks you’re one of the best people he’s ever met. Never even once has he thought about tasting you in a way other than a gentle kiss, or more passionate endeavours. But you were his sacred lamb, the one who made him better, made him want to be better. If anyone made you sad they were sure to be added to the menu. Not that he’d ever force you to eat it, but he’ll surely enjoy his meal.

“That’s sounds quite unfortunate little lamb. I’m terrible sorry you’ve suffered so today. Let me make it up to you. Dinner and a nice glass of wine, then after a massage and I’ll draw you a warm bath. How does that sound?”

“Amazing” you admit, looking at him softly. “You’re absolutely amazing”

You give him a quick peck on the cheek, earning you a rare laugh from the stoic dr.

“It is you who is amazing my love. You bring joy and meaning to so many lives around you. And if they don’t notice your hard work, I certainly do. The world will see your value as I do someday my darling. But until then I will offer you the praise they so thoughtlessly lack”

He kisses you back gently, a proper kiss this time. One that can show you his feelings. One that leaves you feeling worshiped.

“Let me pamper you my little lamb. Maybe perhaps I’ll even watch one of those shows you enjoy, if you behave for me and don’t lift a finger to help with dinner or the washing up. Deal?”

“Deal.”

He smiles at you, whisking you away to be pampered for the night. Figuring his work can wait until later. He cooks you a magnificent feast of all your favourites. Even if he wouldn’t typically approve of them in his diet. He whispers sweet nothings and small praise to you as he gives the massage, making sure you understand just how important and loved you are.

Him joining you in the bath is up to you, he wouldn’t mind either way, just pleased that you needed him for comfort and happy to take care of your burdens. You end up falling asleep one his chest with your comfort show on as he plays with your hair. Hoping your dreams will drive away any stress left in your body so you’re up to spirits in the morning.

An: ahhh sorry if this is bad beloved, I was making dinner and writing at the same time and just wanted to get it to you quick, so it’s not proof read at all 😅 but I hope you like it, I really tried. Still getting back into writing so I’m not as confident about it right now.

• PART ONE TO FOURTEEN ON MY MASTERLIST

2.5k words

If you had the guess the cause of your death, you would have guessed: Javier Peña

Because that devilish man, was indeed, the death of you.

He chewed you up and spat you out and you didn't even complain about it because he could make you cry and whimper and beg you for more.

And that was exactly what happened. After nearly giving you a heartache, of pretty much breaking up with you, disappearing for several hours at night and making you sure you would be alone, Javier got into his apartment, fell onto his knees, your knees, called himself a dog at your feet and then started eating you out.

You barely reacted other than throwing your back against the wall for balance and whimpered. Loud. And then you moaned and called your name. And a part of you had a petty desire of screaming his name as loud as you could, so you could get in the way of Steve's and Connie's fight because there was no way he could get away with that behavior without being scolded by his wife, and then, in case they had already finished their argument and went to bed, you wanted to wake them up, by showing them unlike what Steve had said, you and Javier were going strong, that you were a real couple, that your relationship was for real, no matter what Steve, or anything thought of it, you loved Javi and he loved you.

"Fuck you Javier" you whimpered as he only raised his brown eyes at you, but didn't stop his mouth from wrapping around your clit, suckling on it and dragging another moan from you.

You gripped his hair, the same forceful grip he had on your hair when you blew his cock, he often fucked your face, so it was only fair you fucked his face.

You looked at him and bit your lips ``listen to me, Javier'' you managed to mumble between moans and pulled his head away from your cunt, watching as he swallowed and ran his tongue over his lips, smearing with your wetness. Javi had the puppiest eyes in the world as his thumb wiped a drop of your honey and he paid close attention to what you had to say "you don't get to do shit like that and then come back here, so if you wanna make it up to me, you gotta do it good, Javier. You got me? You gotta make me scream'' you said, staring daggers at him.

He swallowed again and nodded once more, he would do anything you asked him, commanded him, demanded him if it meant you would stay with him. He was so into you it was pathetic and now he couldn't even hide it anymore, you were a necessity, an obsession, something he craved and begged for every day and night.

You gripped his hair again and pulled it rather painfully "me has dicho que eres como un perro a mis pies, ¿No? Entonces, muéstrame"

You didn't often speak Spanish with him, but when you did it was enough to drive Javier Peña insane, it was like adding the code and pressing the buttons to set off a bomb.

He immediately wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling your center closer to his mouth. Your back was against the wall, at the same time he leaned forwards, his big hands guiding your legs to his shoulders, and his face back deep into your core.

His jeans were tight and his cock throbbed inside of his pants, but at that moment Javier was so hungry for you, he was at your feet, savoring your sweet, juicy cunt and he wanted that forever.

His hands went from the side of your thighs to your lower belly, your skin always felt like butter under his rough touches and he carefully used them to spread your lips open, revealing you entirely for him.

Javi could see your clit hard and sensitive, twitching at the air as he stopped to watch his work of art. He smirked softly and gently kissed it, drawing whimpers from you.

"Don't tease me, perro" you gripped his hair again, feeling a little annoyed and gasped as you felt Javier's teeth scraping softly against your bare clit. He very softly placed a love bite on it, making you squeal and immediately suckled on it, as air escaped your lungs and you moved your hips against his face.

His knees hurt and his shoulders burned but he didn't give one single fuck, he was having his time with you and even if he had to take all the painkillers in the world it would be completely worth it. The way he devoured you was something else, Javier had always been a great pussy eater, but at that moment he wanted to blow your mind and he was achieving his goal as your legs shook and you tried as best as you could to sustain your own weight.

Javi's tongue explored your pussy, sliding it up and down and finding your pouring hole, your sweet juices floating his mouth as he tongue fucked you, going as deep as he could, feeling your internal walls squeezing it at the same time his perfect curved nose brushed against your clit, driving you insane.

You were so caught up in your pleasure, calling his name like a prayer and never wanting it to stop, but the urgent knot on your lower belly sent shivers down your spine and before you could even warn Javi you were cumming.

Hard.

For him, on him.

Javi couldn't sustain your weight any longer and as you came and convulsed in his mouth he pulled you to his lap, the two of you on the floor, tiredly as you stared into his eyes, you leaned in for a kiss, tasting yourself on his lips and wrapping yourself around him, wanting him so close to you, your bodies tangled together, his scent on you. You broke the kiss and cupped his cheek, staring into his eyes, as he helped you get your dress off, revealing your naked form for him.

Javi's lips latched onto your nipples, one at a time, licking them and suckling on it, as your hands ran through his hair, softly now, gentle even.

Javi was still completely silent, he hadn't dared say a word, but one simple command escaped his lips.

"On all fours now, cariño" he whispered against your ear and watched as you got in position for him, which you gladly did, spreading your legs wide for him. Your sex glistening with your cum, all for him again.

Javi gave you one last lick, his tongue running through your slit, flicking your sensitive clit and going to your asshole, circling it gently before he smacked your cheek with one hand.

The other unzipping his jeans and freeing his cock, pre cum glistened on his tip, as he was so ready for you.

He didn't take long to get inside of you, getting his length as deep as he could and moving his hips, fucking you as hard and fast as he wanted, on the floor, like the two animals you were.

When you finally got off the floor, Javi held you by the waist, taking you to bed, throwing his body heavily against the mattress and pulling you for a kiss. Just as he predicted, his entire body ached, but it was worth every second of it. He still hadn't explained or apologized, he didn't know how to start. What was he supposed to say?

That he went nuts when Steve mistreated you? That the guilt he felt from his past actions almost cost him his relationship with you because for a moment he really thought you'd be better off without him and that he should leave you alone to live your life with someone who actually was worth of your love? Or should he start by telling you about how he broke into Judy Moncada's house and the only reason why he wasn't a dead body being dumped in some shallow grave in the middle of woods was because she thought his attitude was actually amusing?

No, he couldn't do that, he couldn't say those things. It would be just a mix of embarrassing and stupid, but you read him like a book and you just knew he was avoiding talking to you.

"Javi… we need to talk" you said but he frowned as he looked at your knees and saw the bruise forming on them from being on the floor while he railed you "shit, princesa, let me take care of it…" he got up and went to the bathroom, returning some moments later with a bottle of lotion you'd left there sometime shortly after you'd started dating and squirted something onto his hand, sitting next to you and applying it to your knees, massaging them gently along with your thighs.

"You do know we need to talk, Javier" you broke the silence though you could feel yourself melting onto the couch at your boyfriend's ministrations on your skin. You had just had a real tiring day, too many emotions all at once, and to finalize things, you had orgasmed hard, more than once, so it was a fair assumption his little massage was making you less and less willing to have a serious talk with him.

You knew it was his intention all along, but at that point, it felt like it didn't even matter. You closed your eyes and relaxed but opened them again as your felt Javi's fingers on your clit, circling it and making your legs twitch

"No amor, please… it's too sensitive now" you bit your lips and stared at him, who nodded and kissed his way up your thighs, getting on your stomach and resting his head on it. Javier's arms wrapped around your figure and snuggled there, falling into a comfortable silence. He let his thoughts run freely and forget all about what happened earlier. He was taken back to the warmth of the weather in Laredo, the green of the fields, the small city and the familiarity of it. He liked picturing you there, always dressed beautiful in summer dresses, not so different from Colombia after all, he liked imagining you running along with him, going to the stables and petting the horses, because Javier was sure you would be the kind of girl who would love to pet the horses, and he was also sure the horses would gladly let you pet them, because you were impossible to resist, and that, he knew for a fact.

He sighed as his dreams were so sweet, he loved daydreaming about that, and when you began playing with his hair, then he felt he had died and gone straight to heaven.

You loved to feel him nuzzling your womb, he looked like a lazy old cat sprawled all over you, and it warmed your heart. It was something so simple, so domestic and once it seemed so out of reach, when you thought you and Javier would never be able to have that, you even thought you would never be able to be more than just a lay for Javier, but there you were. You were with your man, in a sweet moment, late at night, giving him all the affection he needed, he craved but he thought he didn't deserve it.

He was relaxed and kept his eyes closed, but you knew he wasn't asleep, so you thought it was time to bring things up.

"Javi… we need to talk about tonight… I'm so sorry I acted that way, but I wasn't expecting Steve being such a dick, and I know I told you many times I don't hold your past against you, but I can't help being jealous of you, because you are attractive and handsome and even hookers want you" you sighed "but I know you are mine just as I am yours, but it still makes me jealous" you admitted as Javi opened his eyes and looked at you. He gave you a sad look, and you knew what he meant. He couldn't erase his past, and he couldn't undo those things. God knew he would have if he had the chance, but he was already thankful you loved him without judgment.

Javi licked his lips softly and stroked your hand, as you continued

"And I got also very worried about you and what he said about Los Pepes, please Javi, be careful, don't do anything stupid because if something happens to you I am sure I'm gonna die"

He swallowed hard and got even closer, cupping your cheek and looking into your eyes. He leaned forward and rested his forehead against yours, heart heavy in his chest at your words. Javier Peña almost sacrificed himself so many times at work, but it wasn't just because he cared about his job, about the people and the country he was currently living in. But it wasn't just because of that, he was also lost, personally lost, he had nothing to actually live for, nothing that held him back, but he was tired of it. He was tired of screwing things up, of endangering himself like that, he wanted to be safe for once, because now he had something good, he didn't want that life any longer and above all, he didn't want to make you suffer.

"Y/N I'm gonna ask you something and I want you to know that I ain't joking, I need an answer, a real one" he said as he licked his lips once more and rubbed the back of his neck, watching as you nodded, both on curiosity but also anxiety. You had no idea what he wanted.

"Will you marry me?" He asked and you felt your heart was bursting out of ribcage. You couldn't even believe your ears and if he hadn't warned you he wasn't joking or if he wasn't staring at you apprehensively, you would have been sure it was just a joke.

"What?" It was all you could whisper at him, tears slowly flooding your eyes, as the emotions were getting more and more intense.

"Not right now, cariño and it doesn't have to be in Colombia, it can be when we get our beautiful life in the ranch, and I get if you are afraid of answering me, I know you've had your heart broken by someone you loved once and that you were left at the altar and fuck, I also know I am a walking red flag but I need to know if we have a chance, I need to know if I will have something to fight for, something to-"

You interrupted him by placing your lips against his, closing the distance between you two as you cupped his cheek and deepened the kiss. You didn't need him to say anything else, it wasn't even necessary and you didn't want him to fall into another round of self-deprecating thoughts.

You broke the kiss, smiling as you stared into his eyes and nodded, feeling the happiness overflowing you. Absolutely nothing else mattered in the world but you and Javier, who was going to become of soon-to-be husband.

"Of course I'll marry you Javi"

[markantonys]

amol chapter 37 (which is 200 pages, so i am justified in making a whole recap for just 1 chapter!)

lan notes that there are many women fighting even among the southerners and also says “have you ever seen a man OR WOMAN from the two rivers ride?” (capslock mine lmao) when another borderlander says a lot of the newcomers look more like farmers than soldiers. we love to see it!!

“the babes kicked as she [healed birgitte]. did they react to times when she healed someone, or was that her fancy?” 🥺

“elayne’s sturdy boots looked like something a soldier would wear, not a queen, but she didn’t intend to ride into battle wearing slippers.” tuon and min take notes. and nynaeve for that matter. this has always been true of elayne: as much as mat, birgitte, and fandom criticize her for being a spoiled noble, she never hesitates to get her hands dirty when it’s called for and has no problem roughing it, wearing grungy boots, selling her own jewels to fill the city coffers, etc.

“[the guardswomen were] watching the seanchan with distrust. elayne understood the sentiment perfectly.” when elayne gets healing from a damane and sul’dam by offering her foot: “both seemed to take it as an insult. elayne had certainly intended it as one.” elayne tells birgitte to tell them to heal the others: “these seanchan paid very close attention to which people could speak to one another. elayne would not give them the honor of speaking to them directly.” “[the sul’dam] was highborn. light willing, elayne had managed to insult her again.” upon seeing how a scout bows and scrapes to tuon and mat: “she was also sickened. no ruler should demand such of her subjects. a nation’s strength came from the strength of its people; break them, and you were breaking your own back.” GO OFF!!!!!!! and so we have confirmation that elayne is indeed one of the few who does not have the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair where the seanchan are concerned. the last passage is especially refreshing because someone is for once acknowledging that channelers aren’t the only ones who suffer under seanchan rule and disproving the “seanchan make life great for normal people!” fallacy. @ elayne, egwene, and gawyn: fuck everyone else i respect you!!!!!

“she took a moment to properly compose herself. smooth features, emotions in control. she picked at her hair, straightened her dress, then walked into the building. ‘what,’ she bellowed as she stepped in, ‘in the name of a bloody, two-fingered trolloc haystack-grunter do you think you are doing, matrim cauthon?’ unsurprisingly, the curse made the man grin as he looked up from the map table.” THEY’RE MARRIED!!!!

mat is wearing pink ribbon on his hat 🤮

“‘hello, elayne,’ mat said. ‘i figured that i could look forward to seeing you soon.’ he waved to a chair, bearing the red and gold of andor, at the side of the room. it was extra cushioned, with a cup of warm tea steaming on the stand beside it. burn you, matrim cauthon, she thought. when did you grow so clever?” MARRIED!!!!

no actually i’m on the floor over mat preemptively having a THRONE - an extra-cushioned one! - and a cup of warm tea prepared for elayne 😭😭 is that husband behavior or is that husband behavior!! it is the last battle but by god is he going to take the extra time to make sure his pregnant wife is comfortable and cared for! and seated on a throne as she deserves!

“‘i’d guess it has less to do with that medallion of yours and more to do with you having too thick a head for compulsion to penetrate.’ ‘bloody right,’ mat said.” MARRIED!!!!

“i come for the dragon reborn!” oh i bet you do, demandred. “you will send for him. either that, or i will see that your screams bring him.” when your ex has blocked you on all social media platforms and you’ve gotta come up with alternate methods of contacting them. demandred is standing in the street outside rand’s house screaming at him for the whole neighborhood to hear until tam finally sticks his head out the window and informs him rand isn’t even home right now.

rand sent “a small angreal of a man holding a sword” to logain and the asha’man. is this fat little man angreal my beloved?? aww i’m bummed he’s not with rand for the last battle. but excited that he has been sent off for another important purpose! presumably!

“gawyn didn’t like egwene standing there, head and shoulders hanging out over the battlefield. he held his tongue; the gateway was as safe as they could make it. he couldn’t protect her from everything.” king 😌 birgitte take notes

“where are you, lews therin! you were seen at each of the other battlefields in disguise. are you here too? fight me!” i literally cannot take demandred seriously jkjfgh he is soooo desperate

“[demandred was] killing thousands. and here they stood.” “how long would he just stand around and do nothing while men died? you promised, he thought to himself. you said you were willing to stand in her shadow. that didn’t mean he had to stop doing important work, did it?” okay so gawyn’s ~hero complex~ and ~inability to stand in egwene’s shadow~ is actually just survivor’s guilt and the very reasonable anxiety that it is the last goddamn battle and he’s not doing as much to help as he’s capable of. you all are so wrong about him all the time! how is this any different from rand’s pathological need to save everyone?

oooh interesting, gawyn’s exhaustion leaves and strength returns when he puts the bloodknife ring back on, so it’s kinda like a drug i guess, and maybe that’s why bloodknives don’t live long (in addition to the fact that they activate the rings for the purpose of going on suicide missions). and now he puts on ALL the rings! boy oh boy.

perrin was gravely injured after returning from TAR and is now in mayene, where tam predicts he’ll spend the entire last battle. lmao classic perrin, god. why the hell wasn’t he the ef5 to get killed off if he already accomplished his one task and is just gonna spend the rest of the last battle unconscious on the other side of the continent?

“what is that boy up to?” tam wonders upon receiving mat’s new orders. fondly baffled father-in-law ❤️

“dannil could say, and think, what he wanted - but tam doubted he would have liked to endure the things that had forced mat, perrin, and rand to become the people they now were.” 😭

“galad damodred was a man who could have used a few stiff drinks in him.” mat informs us that galad has a pretty face without adding To Women, I’m Sure. “‘you’ll do as you’re told,’ mat said.” oh.........Daddy Mat? 😳 i guess a few stiff drinks are not the only thing galad could use in him, am i right

“together, mat and demandred were composing a grand painting. each responded to the other’s moves with subtle care.” why is this so romantic. they should forget about rand and run off into the sunset with each other

“he noticed, with amusement, that in shifting it about for ‘comfort,’ [elayne] had somehow gotten birgitte to wedge [the throne] up a few inches, so she now sat exactly level with tuon. maybe an inch higher.” djkjfg good for her!! mat doesn’t even mind elayne flexing on his wife, he’s just fond at her for it. because it’s actually ELAYNE who’s his wife! this is the type of childish pettiness that feels made up for sanderson!elayne and ooc for original!elayne, but it’s hilarious and flexes on tuon, so i don’t care.

elayne wants to know mat’s plans, but mat’s reluctant to say anything outright in the command tent because he suspects demandred has a spy in there. and so, fascinatingly, he leads elayne and birgitte ONLY out of the tent to share his suspicions with them, and deliberately avoids tuon’s eyes when she questions him as he leaves. he does not trust her but he trusts elayne!!! so implicitly!!

“i want you away from the command post. i’ll tell you what i’m doing. if something goes wrong, you’ll have to pick another general, all right?” HE TRUSTS HER SO MUCH she is his right-hand woman! his bestie! his person! literally why the fuck is she not the one he married. we’ve now had 2 or 3 scenes this book of mat and elayne general-ing together like a power couple while mat’s actual wife either sits there in complete silence or is not trusted enough to come join the convo. we could’ve had mat and rand as brother-husbands if rj hadn’t been too much of a coward to let women have multiple boyfriends in addition to the reverse! (or better yet mat and rand also dating but that would’ve been even less likely to Actually happen, of course.)

“she folded her arms above her swollen belly. light, it seemed bigger every day.” mat is so soft for elayne and the babies!! 🥺 also, at some point in this chapter it is outright confirmed that elayne is 6 months pregnant. so @tonysstressball​ you are TECHNICALLY correct, but i still don’t buy it jkjfg i recognize that the council has made a decision but given that it’s a stupid ass decision i’ve elected to ignore it.gif

mat has been barking orders at everyone else, and offending min by saying he “could use” her, but to elayne, he says “i’d like you to go help at the ford” he loves and respects his wife 🥺 because she is his co-commander and he acknowledges her as an equal in every way!

elayne leaves, and i fear this may be our last matlayne interaction 😭😭😭 it was a good run!!!!

mat’s note to galad: “p.s. if you see any trollocs with quarterstaffs, i suggest you let golever fight them instead, as i know you have trouble with those types.” DJFKJG get his ass!!

forsaken!nynaeve in the vision of the future the dark one shows to rand.........hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me 😳

egwene thinks “i have not finished with you” about tuon. literally why take the time to set this up as the big faceoff of the fourth age only to kill egwene off??? make it make sense!

siuan to egwene: “when moiraine and i set out to find the boy, i had no idea the pattern would send you to us as well.” egwene and rand co-protagonists!!! egwene is ta’veren!!!

“it is...comforting to know i’ve had a hand in shaping what is to come. and if a woman were to wish for a legacy, she could not dream of greater than one such as you.” 😭😭😭 why the fuck is egwene getting killed off!!!!! it’s not even about personal character preferences or not wanting my favs to die, it is, objectively speaking, narratively unsatisfying to set up so much stuff about how egwene is going to shape the fourth age and then kill her before she gets the chance to!

gawyn is going to fight demandred!!!!! this is definitely how he’s gonna get killed, but by god what a sexy move!!!

“once, perhaps, he would have done this for the pride of the battle and the chance to pit himself against demandred. that was not his heart now. his heart was the need. someone had to fight this creature, someone had to kill him or they would lose this battle.” okay so literally WHY does everybody fuss about gawyn doing stupid shit out of a selfish desire to be the hero???? the narrative OUTRIGHT SAYS that he is doing this NOT for personal glory, but for the world’s need, and you all just go “i can’t read suddenly i don’t know”!!!! i’ve had enough!!! i waited FOURTEEN BOOKS to find out gawyn’s great crime, and it turns out there was no crime, you guys just can’t read!! yes, silviana later blames him for being selfish etc but she hates him and has a biased pov on him that can’t be trusted, any more than we can trust mat’s pov on elayne.

me @ the entire wheel of time fandom except for the 2 other people of culture who like gawyn:

gawyn describes demandred as “handsome and imperious” without adding To Women, I’m Sure. they should also forget about rand and run off into the sunset with each other.

i don’t want to lose my boy but by god am i excited to see this Foil Faceoff!! what a delicious thing to do, sending the character who let go of his obsession with personal vengeance against TDR for the sake of the greater good to fight the character who turned to the shadow because he cannot let go of his obsession with personal vengeance against TDR. delicious!!

demandred keeps calling gawyn “little man” “little swordsman” and refers to elayne as “the little queen” Daddy Demandred 😳

“is that not what your dragon claims he can do?” “why do you keep calling him my dragon?” JKJFGKJHKJH one last rand/gawyn crumb for the road! demandred is so jealous

demandred thinks that the general leading the battle is too good to be anyone but rand, so he thinks that mat is either a) rand disguised with an illusion or b) receiving messages from rand through the one power. cauthor rights?

demandred: i face a true master on the battlefield mat: what up i’m mat i’m 21 and i never fucking learned how to read

i love this whole duel!! all the different swordforms, it’s like they’re dancing, it’s so good!! and can we talk about the fact that gawyn, a non-channeler, is holding his own in a swordfight with a fucking forsaken????? yes he has the advantage of the rings but still, KING SHIT!!!! @tonysstressball you’ve been laughing all this time because i was saying demandred was sexy and you knew he was gonna kill gawyn, haven’t you dkfjg well it’s okay because if gawyn had to die (which i’ve known since i started the series that he did), then getting killed by the sexiest forsaken after putting up an insanely impressive fight and having a delicious Foil Faceoff is just the way i would want him to go!

however! i am still heartbroken!!!

“he wobbled and fell to his knees, looking down at a hole in his gut. demandred had thrust straight through the mail, then pulled his sword free in a single fluid motion. why can’t...why can’t i feel anything?” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“if you do survive this and see lews therin, tell him i am very much looking forward to a match between the two of us, sword against sword.” oh i’ll bet you are, demandred. sword against sword, huh?

“his heart cried out; he needed to return to egwene.” 😭😭😭😭😭

rhuarc falls under graendal’s compulsion, oh no!!!

i’m just saying, rand’s vision of the future includes seanchan living happily whereas in the dark one’s vision the whole seanchan continent had become uninhabitable 🤷 #thedarkonewasright

egwene senses that gawyn is dying 😭😭😭😭

we have a weird pov swap mid-section that made it past editing lmao it’s all silviana pov and then there’s a random paragraph of egwene pov in the middle of the scene. i remember there was something like that in TOM as well.

birgitte goes on a spiel to elayne about how all her memories are gone now. that sucks, but it’s really not the time for this birgitte lmao we’re in the middle of the last battle here

galad to elayne: “i assume that it would be completely futile to inform you how inappropriate it is for a woman in your condition to be on the battlefield.” galad your mom would whoop your ass for saying that. she would whoop your ass while in labor, in fact! oh man the show better make it to the last season so i can make a parallels gifset of tigraine and elayne battling while pregnant! the mother of rand and the mother of rand’s children! oh i am passing away

“if we lose this war, galad, my children will be born into captivity to the dark one, if they are born at all. i think fighting is worth the risk.” an excellent point that Certain Readers who whine about elayne taking risks while pregnant do not seem to understand. “‘so long as you refrain from holding the sword personally.’ ...the words implied that he was giving her permission - permission - to lead her troops.” galad is the worst!! constantly undermining elayne’s authority and talking down to her! elayne is 10000% right to treat him the way she does and i’ll die on that hill. and most of her behavior towards galad that Certain Readers claim is SOOoOOoOOOOoooOO immature really just reads like standard exasperation with an overprotective older brother. she’s never once done or thought anything truly malicious to or about him (unlike HIM joining an organization dedicated to persecuting women like HER............)

“you’re not asking me to guess the mind of matrim cauthon, are you? i’m convinced that mat only acts simple so that people will let him get away with more.” elayne knows her husband!!!!

elayne trying to read mat’s letter to galad: “elayne waited patiently - patiently - to a count of three, then moved her horse up beside galad’s mount and craned her neck to read. honestly, one would think he’d take concern for the comfort of a pregnant woman.” JKJFG i love her your honor!! this line really has a ring of jordan!nynaeve to it, i love it. the other day i was reading a compilation post of some funny early-series nynaeve pov lines like this and realizing how much i really missed that after ACOS. from WH on nynaeve was so sidelined and got so little pov, and even then that pov lacked a lot of the bite and humor it used to have, i feel like. there’s a difference between making her more mature due to character development and sapping away the uniqueness and energy that made her her.

“the handwriting was much neater and the spelling much better in this one than the one he’d sent her weeks ago. apparently, the pressure of battle made matrim cauthon into a better clerk.” not sanderson roasting his own TOM mat letter jkdjfjg this is hilarious

mat is sending galad close to demandred and gave him one of elayne’s medallion copies to protect him from channeling. if FREAKING GALAD ends up killing demandred where gawyn failed, i am going to be SO MAD!!!!! (update: freaking galad does not end up killing demandred, thankfully)

galad is okay with killing women because women are just as capable of being evil as men #feministking and elayne’s like “wow that’s the only thing you’ve ever said that didn’t make me want to strangle you” jkdjfjg the bar for that is on the floor

“demandred knew how to gamble. mat could sense it through the movements of troops. mat was playing against one of the best who had ever lived” they’re falling in love while waging a war i swear “and the stake this time was not wealth. they diced for the lives of men, and the final prize was the world itself. blood and bloody ashes, but that excited him. he did feel guilty about that, but it was exciting.” oh, and gawyn’s the one who’s hungry for personal glory at the expense of other people’s lives? 😤 no but that feels SO ooc for mat. i will chalk it up to all the battle commanders in his head taking the wheel so strongly during this whole thing.

mat thinking logain is insane for being jealous of rand being TDR, truly demandred’s (other) foil!

“what he would give to be done with all of these high heads. mat might be one of them now, but that could be fixed.” by divorcing tuon. “all he had to do was convince tuon to forsake her throne and run off with him.” he does NOT know her at all, does he? another one for the “he loves her but he doesn’t like/know/understand her” file. “compared to the challenge he now faced, tuon seemed to be an easy knot to untie.” yes, all you have to do is draw up divorce papers. i give this marriage 6 months post last battle, tops. very interesting how he says TUON is the knot to be untied, not tuon’s throne or tuon’s noble status or something like that.

min throws herself at tuon to protect her when gray men attack. LITERALLY WHY????? she basically kidnapped you! not to mention you were literally enslaved by her people back in TGH, though that’s had so little an effect on you that i forgot it even happened. and it’s not like tuon’s survival is important for the last battle, she has not contributed SHIT so far and definitely isn’t going to!

mat is fighting fiercely to protect tuon, and then min sees a gray man about to kill her and throws her dagger, killing the gray man. “min breathed out. never in her life had she been so happy to see a knife fly true.” LITERALLY WHY?????? JUST LET HER DIE why the fuck has min gone from being so upset about being kidnapped and made tuon’s truthspeaker to feeling genuine relief upon tuon not being killed? there was NO character or relationship development to bring about such a drastic change in the span of a few scenes! also i guess min is more relieved about saving tuon’s life than the handful of times she managed to get a knife in someone who was attacking rand lmao! i can’t believe min has contributed one (1) thing in the last battle and it is saving tuon’s life. goddammit!!!!!!!!!! classic min.

siuan is dead! rip! i did get spoiled on that, but quite quite recently, only within the last few months i think. i’m not that attached to her tbh, i like her but her death was an “aww bummer” rather than a real emotional reaction (tho i might’ve felt more strongly if i hadn’t known it was coming, of course). i would’ve been more emotional if we saw egwene reacting to her death, but i doubt we will get the chance to since egwene is also not long for this world.

mat is being so protective of tuon and frantic that she’s injured, i’m sick of this lmao why didn’t they just let her fucking die!!!! god!!!!!! siuan died so fucking tuon could live!!!

egwene feels gawyn’s life fading fast. “i’m coming, gawyn, she thought, growing frantic. i’m coming.” 😭😭😭😭😭

i know i know, i’m being excommunicated from the fandom for being more upset about gawyn’s death than siuan’s djkfjg to be fair, siuan’s death happened so fast and with such little fanfare that it was hard to feel that strongly about it, plus the only person who reacted to it was min going “oh no! anyway.” i’m sure it’ll hit WAY harder in the show (if they do kill her off there)

this demandred pov has me in HYSTERICS jkdjfg just you wait and see all the gay shit he says here

“he had thought himself long past caring for a woman again - how could affection thrive beside the burning passion that was his hatred for lews therin?” I’M. okay. this line speaks for itself.

he admits that lews therin was better than him at everything but warfare, including “capturing the hearts of men” YJHFGJ demandred is jealous that lews therin got more dick than him. bicon LTT rights!

demandred continues to fall in love with mat via the dance of battle tactics

“[the female love interest sanderson hastily introduced for demandred because he realized he made demandred too gay] took his hand, and something stirred within him. it was quickly smothered by his hatred.” repressed gay demandred rights

“‘i would cast it all away,’ he said, looking into her eyes. ‘everything for a chance at lews therin.’” things to say to your girlfriend during sex. literally the “i bet he’s thinking about other women” meme.

“her voice seemed to imply that perhaps, once lews therin was dead, demandred would be able to become his own man again.” sorry girl you’re barking up the wrong tree, this man is gay and already in a relationship. “he was not certain. rule only interested him insofar as he could use it against his ancient enemy.” he’ll be so sad when lews therin dies

“but within him, there was something that wished it was not so. that was new. yes, it was.” I Could Fix Him.................

demandred flexing on taim 🥵🥵🥵

“i care only for lews therin” we know, demandred

brief juilin pov! hello king!

“what did you do when the one power failed, the thing you relied upon to raise you above common folk?” galad is literally the worst person mat could’ve chosen to give an anti-channeling medallion to. except for tuon whom mat also plans to give one to. mat stop giving anti-channeling medallions THAT ELAYNE MADE FOR YOUR UNGRATEFUL ASS to people who want to oppress channelers challenge

gawyn reaches galad for his dying breaths 😭😭😭😭

"i failed. i should have...i should have stayed with her. i killed hammar. did you know that? i killed him. light. i should have picked a side...” “this will hurt her. and at the end of it, i failed. to kill him.” all his dying words are about beating himself up for failures 😭😭😭 he deserves better!!!! i’m especially mad that killing hammar keeps getting brought up (within the fandom as well) as a crime of gawyn’s when an earlier book outright stated that hammar attacked gawyn first and gawyn was only defending himself.

“i tried to kill him, but i wasn’t good enough. i’ve never...been quite good...enough...” NOOOOOOOOOO BABY BOY YOU’RE GOOD ENOUGH TO ME!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭

“[galad] had loved his brother, loved him deeply - and gawyn, unlike elayne, had returned the sentiment.” TAKE A FUCKING HIKE GALAD stop hogging gawyn’s death scene with your stupid self-pity about how ~mean~ elayne is to you!!! i hate him!!! he should be the one dying, not gawyn!!! it’s not faaaaaaaaair!!!! and galad is “surprised” to find himself crying lmfao why are you so much of a robot that you’re surprised that you’re crying as your brother bleeds out in your arms?

gawyn tells galad that rand is his brother! and his very final words are: “don’t hate him, galad. i always hated him, but i stopped. i...stopped...” one last rand/gawyn crumb for the road 😭 i can’t believe gawyn’s last words ever are saying that he doesn’t hate rand anymore and telling someone else not to hate him. growth!!!

AND NOW GAWYN IS DEAD, RIP TO A KING, MY BLORBO, WHO DID NOTHING WRONG EVER IN HIS LIFE!!!

and now galad is definitely gearing up to kill demandred UGH it’s so unfair!!! even with the medallion, galad should NOT be more capable of killing demandred than gawyn was with his rings + warder abilities! he was killed by being defeated in swordfighting, not by demandred channeling on him! and galad is about equal to gawyn in swordfighting abilities, but does not have the rings and warder abilities to give him an edge! it should’ve been galad who went against demandred first and failed and then gawyn who went in with more abilities and killed him! (update: galad does not kill demandred, but he does do better in the fight and ultimately survive, so i stand by this bullet point)

also, i wish gawyn’s death scene had been with elayne instead of galad, their relationship had way more importance throughout the series! gawyn and galad barely (if ever) thought about each other after the tower coup, but elayne was right alongside egwene as gawyn’s raison d’etre for so long and they had their wonderful scene in the last book, she should’ve been the one to hold him as he died! SHE would’ve reassured him that he had been good enough! and then elayne could’ve gone apeshit and killed demandred!

speaking of going apeshit, now we see egwene’s reaction 😭😭😭

“something severed within her. it was as if a knife suddenly tore into her and scooped out the piece of gawyn inside, leaving only emptiness. she screamed, falling to her knees. no. no, it couldn’t be. she could feel him, just ahead! she’d been running for him. she could...she could...he was gone. egwene howled, opening herself to the one power and drawing in as much as she could hold. she let it out as a wall of flames toward the sharans who were all around now...she would destroy them! light! it hurt. it hurt so badly.” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

but also:

that’s what it’s all about!!! that’s the good shit!!! she is serving rand after rahvin killed mat and aviendha vibes!!! queen eldrene at the fall of manetheren vibes!!! delicious!!!

tuon and mat have a fake fight to throw off the spy and i wish with all my heart that it was a real fight

“‘peaches!’ rand said, aghast. everyone knew those were poisonous.” why is this so funny jdkfjgh somehow this feels like the spiritual successor to eotw rand spitting out his milk in surprise when he sees the fade. he’s just a baby your honor.

the dark one’s new vision of a future where he wins: “men who think they are oppressed will someday fight. i will remove from them not just their will to resist, but the very suspicion that something is wrong.” soooooo literally exactly what the seanchan empire is like already???

bryne has died. could not care less!

demandred is hunting elayne to get rand’s attention. because he’s decided that elayne is the girlfriend who’s most important to rand 😌

“demandred, you call for the dragon reborn! you demand to fight him! he is not here, but his brother is!” okay that’s a baller line from galad, i will admit

“i grow displeased. lews therin can hate me or rail against me, but he should not ignore me.” demandred are you sure you meant to include the word “against” in that sentence?

so it seems that nynaeve’s one (1) contribution in the last battle is going to be healing alanna, and moiraine’s i guess is going to be nothing. super fun and satisfying!

mat: [yells at bashere] bashere: joke’s on you i’m into that

that’s true of every interaction anyone has with any saldaean, really. bless them. i hope the show can manage to incorporate this element of their culture without making it feel like a breeding ground for abusive relationships lmao because it IS hilarious.

“he also felt a pull from the north, a tugging, as if some threads around his chest were yanking on him. not now, rand, he thought. i’m bloody busy.” exasperated boyfriend. also, note that the tugging now feels like threads yanking on mat’s chest rather than his gut. because it’s not the ta’veren pull, it’s just his heart wanting to go to rand!

mat and teslyn reunion!!! ❤️❤️

“if rand were dead, we’d know it. he’ll have to watch out for himself, without matrim cauthon saving him this time.” exasperated boyfriend part 2. we were robbed of warder!mat part 7,000.

silviana talks shit about gawyn 🔪🔪 but egwene is not gonna stand for that any more than i am! “that fool boy saved my life from seanchan assassins. i would not be here to mourn if he had not done so. i would suggest that you remember that, silviana, when you speak of the dead.” 👏👏👏

silviana also shares her view that warders are a weakness (since the pain of losing them has such a strong effect on the aes sedai), which is the first time we’ve heard ANY reasonable explanation for reds not having warders besides just that they hate men lmao

“egwene al’vere can grieve. egwene al’vere lost a man she loved, and she felt him die through a bond. the amyrlin has sympathy for egwene al’vere, as she would have sympathy for any aes sedai dealing with such loss. and then, in the face of the last battle, the amyrlin would expect that woman to pick herself up and return to the fight.” sobbing and cheering, cheering and sobbing. i disagree vehemently that the romance with gawyn took away from egwene’s character, i always loved seeing her Heart Vs. Duty conflict and struggling to reconcile egwene al’vere and the amyrlin seat (rand parallels, anyone?) and i think it added to her character by making her more complex and giving her conflicting desires and motivations. we see a little of this through her friendships with elayne and especially nynaeve too, but not as strongly.

“she drew a deep breath, pulling in more of the one power. she allowed herself anger. fury at the shadowspawn who threatened the world, anger at them for taking gawyn from her.” mood 😭

and egwene bonds egeanin! so egeanin is indeed the seanchan woman who will help her or whatever the dream was

“egwene strode back onto the killing fields, bringing the fury of the amyrlin with her.” YEAAAHHH SHE’S GONNA FUCK SHIT UP!!!! GO ON THAT APESHIT POWER BLAST!!!!

galad is doing better against demandred in a swordfight than gawyn did, which i am calling absolute bullshit on because even if galad WAS a better swordfighter than gawyn (which he isn’t) gawyn’s rings and warder abilities would’ve given him a huge advantage that galad doesn’t have! demandred isn’t even trying to channel on him that much either, he does a couple times but it’s mostly swordfighting. and this is only a copy medallion, shouldn’t it not work against more powerful weaves?

you know what should’ve happened is that mat should’ve ultimately been the one to defeat demandred because a) he has the one true medallion, which offers stronger protection than the copies, b) they are foils, c) the two of them have been leading the entire battle against each other the whole time, so it would’ve been narratively satisfying to see them come face-to-face. and d) mat is good at hand-to-hand combat too with his ashandarei, maybe even better than galad and gawyn since he defeated them in TDR (tho i forget if maybe they were both using quarterstaffs in that fight, not their preferred weapon, rather than swords)

tho actually demandred DID defeat galad, so that’s okay. but galad is still alive.

“i saw androl. i followed him for a while.” “i don’t care about that one!” mood!!

“a stone slab, where a body had been burned long ago, rested here alone. overgrown with life: vines, grass, flowers...rand’s grave. the place where his body had been burned following the last battle.” 😭😭

RAND CREATES A VISION OF THE FUTURE WHERE HE KILLED THE DARK ONE AND REALIZES IT’S BAD BECAUSE HE TOOK CHOICE AWAY FROM ELAYNE AND AVIENDHA!!!!! JUST LIKE HIS VISION WITH EGWENE IN THE SHOW!!!!!

you all knew all along that that 1x08 vision was a deliberate homage to this scene, of course jkjfg but i’m experiencing them in reverse order and am very leonardo dicaprio pointing at tv.jpg right now!!!!

first of all, we get unexpected randlayne (via a vision dreamworld but still)!!!! i was not ready!!!

“elayne was as beautiful as she’d been when they’d last parted” ❤️❤️❤️

“rand approached her, glancing at the garden wall that he had once fallen over, tumbling down to meet her for the first time. these gardens were far different, but that wall remained. it had weathered the scouring of caemlyn and the coming of a new age.” HOLD ON A SECOND MAN HOLD ON A SECOND 😭😭😭😭 The Wall™ exists in rand’s dream version of the future! and elayne and aviendha have a close relationship even 100 years after the last battle in his dream version of the future!

elayne really does feel like The Main Love Interest in this scene and dare i say in the entirety of AMOL. like, rand going back to the very spot where they first met during a key moment in his confrontation with the dark one, that’s huge!!

“elayne looked at him from her bench. her eyes widened immediately, and her hand went to her mouth. ‘rand?’...elayne smiled. ‘is this a prank? daughter, where are you? have you used the mask of mirrors to trick me again?’” 😭😭❤️❤️

“that wasn’t elayne...was it? the tone seemed off, the mannerisms wrong.” “that simpering tone, that vapid reaction...elayne had never been like that.” “but it was wrong too. he thought aviendha would be a wonderful mother, but to imagine her seeking to spend all day playing with other people’s children...” “she was not herself...because rand had taken from her the ability to be herself.” WHAT ABOUT WHAT SHE WANTS!!!!!! THAT’S NOT THE WOMAN I LOVE!!!!!! SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP!!!!!!!!!!

also, i am absolutely losing my mind that min plays no part WHATSOEVER in this vision! it’s because it’s 100 years in the future and as a non-channeler she wouldn’t still be alive like elayne and aviendha are, but still, sanderson/rand COULD’VE chosen to set this vision only 50 years in the future and include min, but no! elayne and aviendha are the main love interests! they’re the ones who matter most to rand! seeing/hearing about them being so different from themselves (avi is not actually present, elayne just talks about her) is what makes him realize he can’t kill the dark one! i feel god in this chili’s tonight! once again cementing the “min was just a fling at a time when rand needed Literally Anyone to keep him company but elayne and avi are endgame” vibes!

on that note, i’m retroactively laughing at rand always brushing off the idea of marrying min when nynaeve hassled him about it lmao he claims it was because it would hurt her or endanger her, but really he just Wasn���t That Into Her.

i do love the faile and the horn sidequest. she’s such a damn hero!!!

“egwene al’vere strode past them up the slope, glowing with the power of a hundred bonfires.” YEAAAAHHHH egwene’s apeshit power blasts are something that can be so personal

somebody better kill logain in this battle because he is giving off ominous vibes for the fourth age (“the world would know of him and the black tower, and they would tremble before him as they never had for the amyrlin seat.”)

“[during the seanchan attack on the tower] her rage had been fringed by desperation and terror. this time, it was a white-hot thing, like a metal heated beyond the point of being worked by a smith. she, egwene al’vere, had been given stewardship of this land. she, the amyrlin seat, would not be bullied by the shadow any longer. she would not retreat. she would not bow as her resources failed. she would fight.” YEEEAAAAHHHH

interesting pov from ila rethinking the way of the leaf! and thinking about aram 😭

WHY THE FUCK DID NOBODY WARN ME THAT BELA DIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

THE ONE CHARACTER DEATH IN THE WHOLE SERIES I WASN’T SPOILED ABOUT AND ALSO THE ONE I WOULD’VE NEEDED THE MOST ADVANCE WARNING FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i’m dead inside. moving on.

“lord rand had come to him, making apologies. to him! well, hurin would do him proud. the dragon reborn did not need the forgiveness of a little thief-taker, but hurin still felt as if the world had righted itself. lord rand was lord rand again.” 😭😭😭

“the names of those who had died for him, starting with only women, but now expanded to each and every person he should have been able to save - but hadn’t.” THANK you sanderson lmao! the show will for sure take this approach right off the bat.

and now rand witnesses a bunch of deaths, including bashere, his wife, hurin, and enaila 😭😭😭 those are also deaths i hadn’t been spoiled on. but not as traumatic as bela’s death!

“he wept for gawyn.” i keep saying one last rand/gawyn crumb for the road and then there’s one more!

birgitte dies, i was spoiled on this one as well lmao but also very recently and in the context of, you guessed it, reading a reddit comment where someone was shitting on elayne and claiming that she got birgitte killed (which is absolutely not true in the slightest, and i’m pretty sure birgitte’s death is a good thing anyway because it might mean she gets returned to TAR in time for her next rebirth and gets all her memories back)

this scene of min rooting out the spy is pretty cool of her, i will admit! the only cool/significant thing she’s done since book 4. why tf hasn’t she been doing stuff like this with her viewings all along? it’s a perfect example of a non-channeler non-warrior character exhibiting a different skillset and type of strength to contribute something meaningful.

also she owns tuon publicly, which is something i always love to see: “as truthspeaker to the empress fortuona, i speak now the truth. she has abandoned the armies of humankind, and she withholds her strength in a time of need. her pride will cause the destruction of all people, everywhere.”

and we get to egwene’s final scene. despite the abundance of crying emojis in this post, this is the only part of the book (so far) where i actually cried

she invents a weave to reverse balefire’s damage to the pattern, holy shit her power!!!!!! “the opposite of balefire. a fire of her own, a weave of light and rebuilding. the flame of tar valon.” 😭😭😭

“in that moment, egwene felt a peace come upon her. the pain of gawyn’s death faded. he would be reborn. the pattern would continue.” 😭😭😭 “she reached more deeply into saidar, that glowing comfort that had guided her so long.” 😭😭😭

“her body was spent. she offered it up and became a column of light, releasing the flame of tar valon into the ground beneath her and high into the sky. the power left her in a quiet, beautiful explosion, washing across the sharans and sealing the cracks created by her fight with m’hael. egwene’s soul separated from her collapsing body and rested upon that wave, riding it into the light.” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 i got choked up again just typing that up! rip to a legend, an icon, the biggest damn hero of the whole series!!!!!

thoughts on egwene’s death: while i hate that she died seeing as the fourth age needs her so badly to stand against the seanchan and continue reforming the white tower, if she HAD to die, then i’m very satisfied with the way she went out. it was such a powerful scene!! and she didn’t die uselessly (like gawyn..........), she died to heal the pattern itself AND to destroy taim and ALL the sharan channelers. though i do wish she’d gotten demandred too, his killer absolutely should have been either egwene (to avenge gawyn) or mat (since they’re narrative foils).

also, i’ve seen people blame gawyn for egwene’s death, so i presume that’s part of the reason why he’s hated, but if i hadn’t seen people saying that, it wouldn’t have occurred to me that he could be considered at fault. obviously his death pushed egwene over the edge, but once she returns to the fight, it’s only one of many reasons for her anger - the bulk of it is anger at the shadow for destroying the world, not just gawyn-specific feral rage, and i do think she would’ve gotten to this point after fighting a hopeless battle for so long and seeing so many people die even if gawyn hadn’t died (after all, it’s what rand and many other characters are also feeling right now even without having warders die). not to mention that her actual death is a moment of peace, heroism, and healing, not gawyn-specific feral rage. my client is innocent, your honor!

moving on

“egwene died. rand screamed in denial, in rage, in sorrow. ‘not her! NOT HER!’” “rand bent over, squeezing his eyes shut. i will protect you, he thought. whatever else happens, i will see you safe, i swear it. i swear it...” that felt like a callback quote, so i looked it up and it’s what rand thinks about her at the eye of the world in book 1 😭😭😭 god this is going to hit even harder in the show with the deepening of their initial relationship!

galad tells berelain to bring the medallion back to mat, so now i’m second-guessing that it’s a copy, could it be mat’s original??? in which case i would take back my complaint that it shouldn’t have protected against all demandred’s weaves. but i have a hard time believing mat would give his own original medallion away during the last battle, so i’m skeptical. i could go back and reread the passage where he gives it to galad but i don’t feel like it. anyway, at least galad no longer has an anti-channeling medallion, that’s good.

“blood and bloody ashes, mat thought. egwene. not egwene too? it hit him like a punch to the face.” “he didn’t know if he could win...not without egwene, her two rivers stubbornness, her iron backbone.” 😭😭😭

really it’s rand, egwene, and mat who are the main characters in this portion. perrin just be napping.

“he pulled out rand’s banner, the one of the ancient aes sedai. he’d gathered it earlier, thinking perhaps it might have some use. ‘somebody hoist this thing up. we’re fighting in rand’s bloody name. let’s show the shadow we’re proud of it.’” 😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ LOVE!!!! ROMANCE!!!! CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!! HUSBAND BEHAVIOR!!!!

mat hears the (false) news that elayne is dead. “bloody ashes! not elayne! mat felt a lurch inside. rand...i’m sorry.” HE HAD PROMISED TO KEEP HER SAFE FOR RAND HE HAD PROMISED!!!!! we have now gotten to see mat react to elayne’s death without her having to actually die TWICE, we are so lucky!! and both times rand is intrinsically linked to his own feelings!! matrandlayne rights!!! one last matrandlayne crumb for the road!! you guys he felt a LURCH inside!!!

and of the 4 specific people rand lists seeing the struggles of now, 2 are elayne and mat, matrandlayne rights!! (the other 2 are rhuarc and lan) “he saw elayne, captive and alone, a dreadlord preparing to rip their children from her womb...he saw mat, desperate, facing down horrible odds...rand had failed.”

and the killer of demandred is [drumroll] lan! i did not see that coming at all. hmm. it’s fine. in-universe he’s a good bet, as he has the trakands’ blademaster skills + gawyn’s warder abilities advantage + galad’s medallion advantage + another advantage in his true mastery of the void (he IS the sword rather than wielding the sword, which demandred said gawyn did not do). narratively, though, it feels like a random choice and i still think it should’ve been egwene or mat. maybe the show could do taimandred and have egwene kill him with her power blast, although then fanboys would be mad that lan didn’t get his Epic Moment lmao (but lan has a lot of epic moments of charging alone into battles that seem hopeless, so does he really NEED this one?)

also, if you’re going to shit on gawyn for risking his last-battle-crucial aes sedai by impulsively charging off to singlehandedly duel a forsaken, then you HAVE to hold lan to the same standard! they did the exact same thing! it’s not gawyn’s fault that the author(s) decided he had to fail and die and lan had to succeed and live! (i assume lan lives, it’s dicey now but i’m 90% sure i remember reading that he survives the series.) this is the equivalent of people shitting on elayne for cooking up harebrained schemes while praising mat for doing the same thing, just because some of elayne’s schemes fail and mat’s succeed.

and we have FINALLY finished the 200-page chapter, christ on a cracker. i cannot believe that perrin, nynaeve, and moiraine, ostensibly 3 of our most important characters, have been spending the whole last battle doing basically nothing lmao! i like the idea of nynaeve saving the day by using her old wisdom herb skills, but there’s gotta be a way to do that in a way that feels more significant (having her save a major character, for example, like maybe elayne/avi/min was the bondholder whom the shadow injured and nynaeve has to save them). meanwhile perrin is deadass asleep the whole time (sanderson should’ve structured it so that perrin’s TAR stuff was happening DURING this bulk of the last battle rather than beforehand) and moiraine’s just chilling out being a saidar battery and doesn’t even get any pov in these whole 200 pages, i don’t believe, even though we heard from tons and tons of minor characters (although she absolutely might have and i just don’t remember.)

100 pages left! let’s see if perrin does anything in them lmao

#wot #wot book spoilers

[superspoonie24]

Anna: *is neglected and abandoned for majority of her life, starting at like age 5*

Anna: *runs into someone who actually sees Her and notices Her and doesn't act like she's invisible or a burden for the first time in over a decade*

Anna: hey sister I desperately want to notice me and will accept even the tiniest bit of attention from, here is a man I just met that is, *checks notes*, actually talking to me. I'm going to marry him.

Elsa: that's ridiculous! You just met him.

Anna: ~~yeah and in the few hours I've been with him he has talked to me more than you (or anyone else really) have in like 13 ish years~~ Oh haha yeah but like... I Know him and he's a prince!

Elsa: No. I don't approve.

Anna: ~~who the hell are you to approve??? You. Don't. Talk. To. Me.~~ Oh. Uh. Well can we talk about it? (Definitely is not desperate and terrified to lose the tiniest shred of a shred of a relationship she has with her sister) *Reaches out for the attention and affection she is so starved of*

Elsa: *freaks out, reveals giant secret, runs away*

Anna: holy *shit*... I gotta go make sure she's okay!! ~~I gotta make sure I don't lose her.~~

Anna: *goes after Elsa and gets shamed by another stranger for A going after her and B 'falling for a man she just met'*

Elsa: *rejects her more and tells Anna she is better off without her*

Anna: *heartbroken cause the last member of her family, the person she idolizes and so desperately wants love from, Keeps Rejecting Her.*

Anna: *leaves heart broken ~~and heart frozen~~ to go back to the only person this whole night who has shown her undivided 'love', attention, care, affection*

Hans: *is an asshole out of no where????*

Anna: *heartbroken AGAIN because she really can't trust anyone and maybe it's her own fault she's so unlovable.*

Elsa: *Is gonna be killed*

Anna: *is on the brink of literal death and when it comes to going after the stranger who is actually pretty nice and kind and likes her for her and treats her with respect vs the person who she has longed for her entire life even though she keeps pushing her away, she goes after her sister because despite it all she still wants Her love, hell just her Attention above anything else.*

The movie: This is true love 🥰

Me, definitely not projecting my own life onto this at twelve: Hold up this hurts a lot and I relate to these characters wait-

My sister: This movie is mine and only I get to sing and only I get to love it cause it's mine. But if you sing it perfectly and never mess up any of the words or notes I guess I'll let you watch with me.

Me: Really???? 😍🥺🥰🥺😍

...

Okay so this was going to be a critique about how Anna is seen as naive and dumb and it is used against her the entire movie without ever acknowledging *why* she's like that. And how a lot of fans don't see it either. But then it really just turned into me trauma dumping lmao.

But seriously. I feel like most of the neglect and abuse talk ends up being towards Elsa cause she visibly struggles more. And Anna hides it because she has to. Her parents were so worried about elsa that they didnt have time for her pain too. So it's hidden. But it is most definitely there. And it deserves to be mentioned and talked about.

Also this is a very common situation for emotionally neglected people to find themselves in. They cling onto someone showing the slightest bit of decency and believe it's good and amazing cause when you're starved, you'll eat poison if it might help for just a moment. Cause something is better than nothing. And when the something is bad and hurting, the pain of going back to nothing is worse. So you're stuck with a Hans believing it's what you deserve because of years of neglect and abuse.

But yeah. Anna is just dumb and naive. Definitely no trauma on her end.

Bottom line:

Anna deserves better. In canon and from fandom. And ESPECIALLY from Disney.

Agent Kennedy, Part 8

Leon Kennedy x Male!Reader

Takes place during Chris'second chapter in re6

Warnings: Violence, death (Finn... 🥺)

Part 7 > Agent Kennedy, Part 7

This is the last part before a little break and yes, I had to include Finn in the chapter cover because he absolutely did not deserve to die

"I already gave the pilot the coordinates." Chris told Sherry, he had ordered one of Echo team's pilots to take Sherry and the man to safety.

"Thank you so much for your help." Sherry said, she glanced back at the man before the two started to walk away.

"Hey... Hey!" Chris called out, getting the man's attention. "Have we met?"

"You jarheads all look the same to me pal, sorry." The man said as he walked backwards, Sherry glanced between the man and Chris.

"You've gotta be kidding me!" Piers muttered, trying to charge at the man but you stopped him.

"My mistake." Chris called out before he looked at Sherry. "Have a safe flight."

Sherry nodded and turned to catch up to the man. They entered the aircraft and it took off. Piers pushed away from you and looked pissed before he approached Chris.

"Captain, we're crazy for letting him walk away! How many men have we lost to mercenaries like him!" Piers said, he had a point but taking the man in wasn't worth the trouble if he was under government protection.

"He's not our problem. We can't lose sight of the BSAA's mission." Chris replied calmly, you were a little shocked Chris didn't yell at Piers.

Chris walked away, the rest of the soldiers stayed behind a bit, you included. You were waiting for Piers to do or say something and possibly have to put him in his place. He's done it a few times in training, based off what Chris and some other soldiers have told you. This ended up making you the person who controlled his anger.

"To fight bioterrorism, sir." Finn said, trying to bring some light to what had just happened.

"I know what we're here for, rookie." Piers snapped back, glaring at Finn.

Finn's smile dropped as he backed off a bit. That was what made you fess up.

"Nivans. Knock it off. You say another harmful thing towards a teammate and I'll write you up when we get back to the base." You said, stopping Piers from catching up with Chris.

Piers stared at you, his expression was both shock and anger until he just sighed and nodded. You stepped back a bit before jerking your head a little, signaljng everyone to head to the City Hall.

Soldiers went in first before you, Chris, and Piers walked in. The area was quiet, which was a bit alarming.

"Okay, spread out. Search this place top to bottom." Chris ordered but stopped in his tracks when he entered the hall.

The room was filled with human-like shapes but they were all stuck in some tough material. You pulled out a device that was able to pick up any alive thing in the area.

"Are these... people?" Finn asked, he sounded terrified but no one was gonna blame him.

The radar showed you that everyone trapped still had a heartbeat. "Picking up life-form readings. It's like they're in cocoons." You said as you stared at one, expecting it to do something. You moved away when nothing happened.

"Over here! I'm getting a reading on the other side of this door!" Finn called out, he had managed to get to the top of the stairs.

"Piers, (Y/N), Finn - you're with me. Everyone else, keeping searching out here." Chris ordered, running up the stairs.

You followed behind Piers since you struggled a little to put the radar away. A soldier reported something to HQ about temporary splitting up but you weren't paying attention. The room Finn found readings in had a few people in cocoons as well, but one of them got impatient.

"One of them's hatching, sir!" Piers shouted as a cocoon hatched.

What was inside of it was a B.O.W. It wasn't as big as the other ones but it was still big enough to be intimidating.

"Call it in the HQ!" Chris ordered as he, you, and Piers jumped down to fight it.

"Roger!" Finn replied, staying on the balcony and shooting the B.O.W. from there.

After a little bit of fighting the first one, another one hatched. You had the unfortune of getting hit by one. It knocked you down and winded you so you could breathe for a moment. Piers say it and ran to you, pulling you off into a corner and covering you.

"You okay?" Piers asked, glancing back at you.

"Mhm..." You hummed, still catching your breath.

Once the B.O.W.s were killed, you tried looking for your bow. You found it shattered along with some broken arrows. You sighed but just continued on. You told Chris but said you'd be fine with just your knife.

You four came across another room to find a bunch of empty syringes scattered on the floor. Piers knelt down and picked one up.

"Captain." Piers said, showing Chris the syringe.

"'C-Virus.'" A woman's voice said, causing the three men to aim their guns in her direction. The woman walked out of the shadows and held her hands up, she was wearing a blue dress with a red scarf. "That's what the guerrillas were calling it. Nice to see the cavalry's here."

"Who are you?" Piers asked, not lowering his gun and inch.

"I work here. My name's Ada Wong. They held me hostage." Ada informed, something about her tone didn't fit. Normally hostages are scared out of their minds when things like this happen, but not Ada.

"C-Virus. That must be what's creating those J'avo." Chris said, leaning towards you a bit and lowering his gun a bit.

"Yeah, I heard them saying something about that." Ada said, shrugging a bit.

"What else did you hear?" Piers asked, he definitely found Ada suspicious.

"Maybe you could put your guns down first?" Ada asked, lowering her hands and walking forward a bit.

Chris, Piers, and Finn aimed their guns at Ada again, causing her to stop.

"Not until you give us a reason to." Chris responded, Ada sighed and held her hands up again.

"Neo-Umbrella." Ada said, as if you guys were supposed to know what the hell that meant.

"Neo-Umbrella?" Chris asked, he seemed to have an idea what it meant but was still confused.

Sure, there was the Umbrella Corporation in Raccoon City all those years ago, but Umbrella's been silent for over ten years now.

"The organization supporting the guerrillas. Or at least I think that's what they were calling themselves." Ada informed, the information seemed to be a lot from a hostage.

"So the C-Virus came from them." Piers said, lowering his gun a little.

"That's all I know." Ada said, but it sounded like she knew more.

"Thank you. We appreciate your cooperation." Chris said, lowering his gun completely. The other men do the same. "Finn. You're in charge of keeping her safe." Chris ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Finn responded, walk up to Ada and waiting for Chris to order where to go next.

Chris turned to you and Piers before whispering, "Keep an eye on her." It relieved you that you weren't the only one suspicious of Ada.

"Will do." Piers replied as you nodded. You glanced back at Ada, who crossed her arms in front of her stomach.

"We found one of the staff. Returning to the foyer now." Chris reported to HQ, but they didn't respond.

"Come on. I'll show you a quick way back to the entrance." Ada said, leading you guys to a hidden door.

When the door opened, you were met with the sound of gunfire and yelling along with the sight of those B.O.W.s that had hatched.

"Shit! They're everywhere!" Chris said, stepping into the room with you and Piers. Finn stayed behind a little with Ada.

"We'll never get out!" Finn yelled, his fear clear as day now.

"Everyone, get to the second floor! The foyer's too dangerous!" A soldier yelled from the top of the second floor stairs.

Everyone ran, ditching the B.O.W.s with their only focus is to get out alive.

"There's a way out on the second floor. I suggest we take it." Ada said, opening a passage in the middle of the second floor wall.

You glanced at Piers as it opened with a questioning look, he did the same before running through the passage. You ended up on the other side of the broken balcony in the room you first found the B.O.W.s in.

"Your friends are having a hard time." Ada said, a smug expression on her face.

Chris ignored her, you were about to say something before Piers beat you to it. "Ma'am, please, just try to stay out of the way." Piers said, his response was a lot nicer than what yours would've been.

A new type of B.O.W. must've hatched because they were attacking your team now. They looked like giant lizards. They weren't as dangerous as the other ones but they were more annoying since they were faster.

Once they were taken care of, Ada walked on ahead to the only accessable door in the room.

"This door leads to the warehouse next door. We can get outside through there." Ada said, opening the door.

You all followed her, there were a few B.O.W.s but now that the whole team was helping, it was much easier. You all entered a new room and were about to move one when Piers noticed Ada missing.

"The woman - she's gone. Finn!" Piers yelled, glaring at him.

Finn glanced back panicked to see Ada missing. "I don't know what happened. She was here a second ago!"

Just then, a gated fence prepared to fall down above you, Chris, and Piers. You three dodged out of the way. The door to the other side of the soldiers also shut, trapping them. Ada came into the light from the other side with a smirk on her face, making your blood boil.

"Ada!" Chris yelled, clearly angry at her too.

"Thanks for the escort. Here's something to remember me by." Ada said before throwing a metal ball into the room.

The ball opened to reveal a bunch of syringes before they all shot out, hitting every soldier in the next. All of them yelled in pain from the sting but then started yelling from pain of something else. They were infected with the C-Virus.

"No..." Chris muttered, realizing the same thing. "No, goddammit! No!" Chris banged on the fence as he tried to get it to open.

Piers looked away while you put your hand over your mouth. Finn had stumbled up in front of the fence and his body became engulfed with fire, you had to try and help him.

"Finn, hang in there!" You called out, leaning against the fence.

"Not like this!" Chris yelled as Finn tried to stand up and walk towards you.

"Captain!" Finn called out as the fire started to form a cocoon around him.

"No, goddammit!" Chris yelled, banging the fence with his hand again.

"Finn!" You yelled, reaching through the fence to try and grab him before the cocoon closed in around him.

Chris fell to his knees while you just rested your head against the bars and relaxed your arm. You heard a sound and looked up, seeing Finn's cocoon hatch into one of those B.O.W.s. You backed away a little as Piers grabbed Chris' attention.

"Captain, we gotta move!" Piers said, the B.O.W. almost completely out of its cocoon.

Chris looked up and got back on his feet, you stood behind Piers and Chris since you had no weapons. The fence opened as the others hatched, Chris and Piers aimed their guns at the B.O.W. hunting you down.

"Now! We gotta go!" Piers ordered, backing away as the B.O.W. caught up.

Chris hesitated and got grabbed by the monster, Piers didn't fire at it since he didn't want to accidentally hit Chris. The B.O.W. pinned Chris against the wall and hit his chest a number of times before tossing him to the ground, his head hitting the concrete hard.

"Chris!" You and Piers yelled, running to grab him.

"Piers! Cover me!" You yelled, grabbing onto Chris's vest and pulling him away. Piers stood in front of Chris as you picked him up and carried him like you did with the Bravo Team prior. "Don't you die on me, Redfield." You muttered as you turned and ran out an exit, Piers following you.

“It takes great deal of courage to see the world in all its tainted glory, and still learn to love it.”— Oscar Wilde

I need a moment after that fight. Hold on a sec. I swear I'm not crying 😭😭😭

A warlock was using magic – the second most beautiful thing in the world – to hurt David – the first most beautiful thing in the world. Unbelievable for me too honey...

YESS!!! David finally realized!!! He's so smart and sexy for it, now there is only the sliiight problem of Max not believing him....

Max!! Open your eyes!!! She's a phsyco!!

“That’s not what this is about. This isn’t about Mallory.”

“No, it isn’t,” David shook his head. “This is about your inability to be alone.”

Ok, that was a reaaaally shitty thing to say🙂

Miscommunication: 123

Talking and figuring stuff out: 0

I loved his dreadlocks so much😭😭 like, good for him if this is what he wants but I'll still mourn them smh

Camilla speaking facts and Gigi kicking ass😎 god I love women❤️

Sometimes people wanting to help felt better than them actually helping you. I support Lovehollow above all else🥺🥺 if they don't support me and are glad for my accomplishments and want to help me in whatever way they can then I don't want it. Expectations have been set!!

Honesty, the only one who doesn't know now about the wedding it's Anjali, and I'm not even sure about that anymore 😂

He is going to make her a fucking dress😭😭 Lovehollow>>>> anyone else rn

I hope that dress has pockets....

Anjali 🤝 Gigi

Respecting each other and being badass together. Love the way Anjali smiled at her 🥺

Fuck you, Marcus!!!

I just feel the warlock issue is going to get really big really fast and I am not prepared...

Literally my reaction:

I JUST KNOW MARCUS IS INVOLVED IN THIS SHIT!!

Jace be like: I'm a mavid Stan first, shadowhunter second😎

Yeah, Alec! Call him out!!!

The GROWTH of this man!! He went from wanting to take Magnus' inmortality away, to now understanding this will always be a part from him and respecting that there isn't something he can say and just wanting to be there for him or give him space to talk to someone else who gets it🥺🥺

“Because my biggest fear that is that I won’t get to see them grow up,” Alec said in response. “You know shadowhunters live short lives. So, to see them grow up, it’s a blessing.”

AHHH PLEASE💙💙😭

Max needed to be dragged to study math. To attend nephilim events that were ‘too boring’. To go play with children whose name wasn’t David. Right where it hurts my mavid heart🙂

Alec be like: Yeah, you are my kid and I love you, but I can and I will drag your ass up to apologize to my husband bc you made him sad🔪

“You’re assuming we’d still be hanging out in 500 years,” he is an asshole sometimes 😂😂

“But I’m not just a warlock,” Max said with a soft smile. “I’m Magnus Bane’s son.” HE SAID IT!!! HE SAID THE LINE!!!

Not me ignoring all the mavid angst for the sake of Lovehollow and Gabrielina ❤️😎

Sometimes you needed to run away. It was self-care. She's so wise and so right about this

YES THE NY ATTACKS AND THE WARLOCK ISSUES AFE CONNECTED!!! I KNOW IT!!!

“The Clave is made up of hot, respectable people,” Gabriel told her, kissing her finger.

“You’re talking about Rafael and Anjali?”

“Who else?”

Hundreds of languages, and he decided to seal with the truth 😎

“Did it fall?” Selena asked.

“No,” he replied. “I smashed it."

...

“Maybe I should have. I deserve to get hurt for hurting Max.”

Love me some feral David, bit now I'm getting concerned lmaooo

That shit wasn't a mistake!! Something is happening to Selena's powers!! Ahhh😭

Gotta go bc I didn't pay attention to class and now idk wtf to do😂😂

💙.💙.💙.

Pleases have this tiktok of Ruel I found as compensation for the pain caused.

Feral David rights only 😎

#lbaf #also that quote >>>

[adriansboyfriend]

Just some ‘Toru thots ( gets a little lemon-y under the cut) can’t believe I used that term ghjki 18+ Minors DNI

Malewife (no, I won’t take criticism)

He loves cooking for you, but will forget about what he’s making to annoy you for affection

He’s almost set the kitchen on fire several times

Satoru loves to be babied, okay

Especially, if you let him cook

Coming up behind his tall frame, wrapping your arms around his waist

Kissing his back if he’s shirtless or rubbing his stomach with your fingers or dragging them up and down his long arms

That man loves the attention

Definitely an attention whore

You really can’t do that if he’s doing a task

Especially, if he’s helping you clean

It just ends badly

Poor baby just wants to help you and be loved on

If you don’t give him attention, he’s a fucking menace!

Will bother you until you snap at him

This only further eggs him on

You do feel bad, but gods he’s fucking annoying

And he loves that you get upset with him so easily

Gojo thinks it’s hilarious

Sometimes, he’ll go out of his way to piss you off

He’s such a child, but he will apologize eventually

If you’re watching one of Satoru’s terrible movies with him, he’ll usually tuck you into his side

Or he’ll sprawl out on your lap (if he’s not manspreading like the whore that he is lol)

If you’re allowed to just sit beside him, he’ll poke your sides if he allows himself to take his eyes off the screen

You’re not allowed to leave his side until the movie’s over

It’s not up for discussion

If you need to use the bathroom or get something to drink or snack on, he’ll either carry you or follow you

‘Toru doesn’t want you out of his sight

He’s like a puppy in that regard

It becomes endearing after you’ve been with him for awhile

He’ll 100% spoil you

If he's away on a business trip, Satoru will bring you back little trinkets that remind him of you or sweets he thinks you'll like

There’s no point in telling him not to waste his money on you or that he doesn't have to do that

He's rich

There's no use in window shopping either

If you're in a different store, ‘Toru will leave to buy whatever it is you were longingly staring at

Loves to be taken care of so much

It gets exhausting for Gojo always fighting curses and looking out for his students (especially, Itadori)

He’s expected to always uphold his reputation as the strongest Jujutsu sorcerer

Satoru appreciates that he can be vulnerable with you

I know a lot of y’all like to write this man as a fuckboy and that he's never committed once he's with someone

I say otherwise

Once Satoru has been with you for awhile and he’s comfortable, he’s fucked

But in a good way

He loves you so much and he’ll shower you with attention

Please do the same to this man

He deserves the world

It does take ‘Toru some easing into because he’s not used to it

Especially, the praise and affection

He’s so good with his kids 🥺🥺

Protect this man at all costs

Gojo will do anything for them

Makes you soft for him

Sorry, it doesn’t make me wanna have kids with Satoru as much as I love him and he’s super good with them ( just don’t like them)

Although, I’m not gonna go out of my way to be a dick to his students if I’m around them

He so badly wants all of you to get along

Especially, with Megumi

Makes the relationship with him stronger if you do get a long with them

Totally a cat person

That’s fine with you

They’re like your kids anyway

Absolutely spoils them too lmao

100% has a praise kink

He’s pretty much down to try anything once ( he just wants to please you)

You gotta let him know he doesn’t have to do anything he’s uncomfortable with even if it’s something you’d like to try with him/do to him

Satoru is super fucking smug anytime you compliment him

He knows he’s beautiful

If you convince him to try lingerie on for you; it completely goes to his head

Telling him he’s your pretty boy and thanking him for allowing you to see him in a set gets to him but, he knows he’s a “pretty boy”

He’s a switch/service top, but he’s sub leaning

You take care of him and let him know he’s loved

Got a little bit of a pain kink, not really into being degraded

Satoru’s okay with being called a slut etc.

Likes his hair being pulled a little

Likes being marked ( loves having people know he belongs to you)

Kinda into breath play

Into light bondage

Likes being pegged occasionally

Buys you a squirting dildo

Doesn’t have a breeding kink, but likes being filled with “your cum”

He’s okay with calling you ‘daddy’ but, prefers ‘sir’ ( I’m just saying this as a preference for myself as an afab genderfluid person. I don’t like the idea of being called ma’am or mommy 🤢)

If he’s domming, he’s a bit of a tease

That man’s the devil!

Likes you calling him ‘sir’

Not into being called ‘daddy’ or anything ( makes him uncomfortable)

He’s around 5.5-6, kinda thick

Keeps himself trimmed

I know y’all love giving ‘Toru a monster cock, but he’s smaller in my head

I prefer something around that size ( I’ve never had dick, so I can’t give an opinion)

Smaller dicks need more rep, enjoy your E.R. trip

[sungbeam]

WE ARE BIG BRAIN YES !!! i’m glad you’re excited to write it, because like, honestly, i love it so much, i’m so excited to see what you have in store. little note, i became down horrendous for jeno after reading both parts of the au, and i only have u to blame. don’t be surprised if one day i post something about ur twilight au jeno just to feed my own down abysmal mind

i speak the truth!! i’ve read some of your other works and they’re so so good, i’m so glad you write for both nct and skz, bc those are my favs! but really though, you’re genuinely a super good writer, and a cool person bc of how you interact with ppl (basing this off of how u interacted with me ur so cool) so u deserve all the praise!!

highkey a little embarrassed to type this out but one of the first ‘scenes’ that came into my head was like, a ‘pinned to the wall or locker’ scene. like maybe you’re avoiding jaemin bc of what happened in the forest, you’re mad at him for provoking jeno and fighting unnecessarily, so you’re avoiding him completely. to the point where he has to pin you to a locker to try and talk to you, and even then u do ur best to ignore him. and hen comes the obligatory ‘vampires have a neck kink’ and he’s all up in ur neck trying to get u to break and stop ignoring him so he can talk to you and he’s super smug once u do pay attention to him.

anyways what the fuck did i just write i’m sorry im so embarrassed LMFAO — v.

v. THAT. IS. SO. GOOD. IM BANGING MY HAND ON THE TABLE (in my head) AS I TYPE THIS 🤧🤧 it's making my nana brain go haywire dkcbsksj the slow, smug smirk that graces his face as soon as you give into his advances, and he makes you so flustered, yet says some dumb line that makes you laugh to break the tension (SCREAMING)

ok bby i know it's been a while but it is that time again. that's right, reaction time with sunny is back. since it's been a hot minute, instead of spamming you, i'll just make this one really long so this is for parts 26-epilogue of commitment-phobic.

pt 26:

- ok i distinctly remember reading this but ig i didn't leave a reaction bc i can't find it so here it is

- the combo of sannie and jinnie is so powerful, i love it, you're welcome

- that's all i gotta say, chaos brewing is fantastic

pt 27:

- ooh right to the death threats i like it

- lmao ofc she was hiding in the bathroom

- emotional range of a teaspoon 😭

- ofc they plotted murder over dinner

- ooh look at things progressing

pt 28:

- lmao not her clowning him for the image

- man y/n can go from 0 to threatening so fast. i love it

- "why are you being needy, it's gross" mhm sure san you love the attention don't lie

- san is indeed a little gremlin

pt 29:

- notice how jin said a most beloved dongsaeng and not the most beloved dongsaeng (bc it's obviously jungkook)

- jinnie is so violent (and perfect) i love him

- "you know namjoonie's stupid face cracks me up"

- lmao a mildly threatening kookie, i love it

- there's literally too much to comment on i just love jin so much

pt 30:

- oh hey this looks familiar. i will try to recall my original reactions lol

- ofc jin is messing with u jimin. not his fault u fell for it. i mean he's still right but ur still an idiot (a lovable one ofc)

- god they're such awkward little shits

- i've said it before and i'll say it again, i love the comforting home-y way you've described y/n's place

- agh yesssssss gotta love a good confession

epilogue let's gooooo:

- aw meeting san, what a big milestone

- bring jin 😂 san would love the surprise, to be fair

- dw jinnie i'll make sure you and sannie get the credit you deserve (also me for being the mastermind behind the masterminds if uk what i mean)

- ugh i love that ending with the implied chaos

GOOD JOB JOSIE YOU FINISHED IT (a hot minute ago but i've been busy so let's pretend it just happened) YAYYYYY 🎉 I'M SO PROUD

bro I missed you too, welcome back 🥺

you're so right, those two are absolute crackheads. thank you for giving me that idea 😂

you know ya girl isn't emotionally equipped to handle this situation, the bathroom was a very expected hiding spot lol

y/n is a badass and no one can change my mind. also san being a tsundere? more likely thank you think!

you can't blame jin for loving jk the most, he goes along with jin's dumbass schemes without question! jin is indeed my favorite character in this how did you know 👀

I'm glad you liked the description of her place! I wanted it to really feel like he was finally being let into her life, not just her home 🤧

look, y/n's dad isn't in the picture, and san is objectively her favorite person. I wanna be real clear that ALL the credit for the parent trapping portion of this story goes to sunny, your mind is amazing tbh 🥰

thank you for being proud of me! I struggled a lot in the end, but I got there lol. I always love hearing your takes on my stories, and I hope I'll get to hear more of them ❤

#commitment phobic #thank you for asking #reaction time with sunny #sunny 💛

PART 4 WAS SO GOOD AAAAH! I looooove this series so much!! Love that reader didn’t back down and told Pedro some harsh truths! (I probably would’ve cried if I see his puppy dog eyes aw lmao!)

Maybe Pedro went to therapy during their time away from each other? To work on himself and his issues and everything. I think what would be really important is Pedro actually admitting his wrong doings and being like “I did this and it was horrible and it was all me and I’m sorry”

Because reader needs to know that Pedro knows what he did wrong and that some things he did were really messed up and not okay!

And then Pedro actually trying to make it up to reader and being very attentive and paying so much attention to her and just being sweet Pedro that we know 🥺 and of course the grovelling. Like come on Pedro, get on your knees to apologise hahaha!

THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON!!!! I'M SO HAPPY YOU LIKED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta confess my heart clenched when he cried because of her harsh mean words. But yeah he did deserve that, but the thing is: i know he is an asshole, but he is my asshole you know? Lmao

Trust me, Pedro knows why he screwed up and what he did, now he just needs to man up tell reader that, then, what she will do with his apologies is a mystery to all of us 😉

I also really like this idea of Pedro going to therapy, I think it's a nice change to go from absolute asshole to emotionally healthy, so yay, I might use this idea if it's alright with you, anon?

That's really great ❤️ thanks a lot for all the feedback 💗
