Listen, I know Dream winning his duel with Lucifer with hope is like... A BIG DEAL and super symbolic and beautiful, HOWEVER I have something that may not be better, but would definitely be FUNNIER. 
Dream loses. He's been locked in a bubble and had his hopes dashed again and again, even though he's still fighting and still hopeful, it's harder for him to reach that and it doesn't come to mind in time for him to win against Lucifer. He's to stay as a servant in Hell and there's no Endless or divine being that can or will come to his aid. He's trapped. Again. 
Only Matthew isn't Jessamy, Matthew knows when the best way to help is a tactical retreat to gather reinforcements. So that's what he does, going immediately to Luciene like, "Hey, so, uh..." And there has to be some way they can help him! Luciene makes it clear that none of the dreaming denizens can. None of the Endless can, no deity would be of any help there against Lucifer. There are Old Laws dictating that Dream lost fair and square and no one can interfere with that. And Matthew's like, "Well what about someone who can challenge Lucifer to win him back? Someone not bound by the Old Laws?" 
"The only beings not bound by the Old Laws are humans. There's no human--" 
Except there is. There's one. One human that Dream would go off once a century to meet, and it's a long shot, but-- 
That's how Hob Gadling finds himself being approached by a talking raven asking him to trek into hell to rescue his boss. "You know, Dream of the Endless? Lord Morpheus?" 
Hob doesn't know who the hell the bird is talking about until Matthew describes him. "Oh, my Stranger!"
"...He seriously didn't even tell you his name?" 
Now, the idea of setting foot into Hell itself to do battle with Lucifer Morningstar is, y'know... Not something he wants to do. He confirms over and over if Matthew is SURE he doesn't have to die to achieve this, because he's not ready to leave yet, and Matthew is like, "Yeah, buddy, shouldn't be a problem." He's lying. He has no idea if it's a problem. (It's not.) 
Hob is like, "Yeah, but... I can't FIGHT Satan himself and expect to win, I AM still human." 
And Matthew's like, "You don't actually have to fight her, it's like a game! But uh... Pretty sure you still feel all the pain and stuff." And he explains the rules, and like, okay, feeling the painful death of whatever kills whatever you decide to be in your round SUCKS, but Hob's been through that before. It's actually a pretty intriguing game, one he thinks he might win. 
See, the way he sees it, it's a combination of the "times infinity" type of game (I love you, I love you more, I love you times two, I love you times a thousand, I love you times a million-- so on and so on) with that counting game where you either say one or two numbers, back and forth with someone, and whoever says 21 loses. Basically, there's one logical conclusion the game is going to reach. Someone is going to bust out the "times infinity" or in this case, "heat death of the universe" or some other completely life-ending thing. And like with the counting game, if you can get your opponent to say specific numbers on the way to 21, you can make sure they're forced to say it. 
There's a strategy if you think ahead enough, and he has an entire walk through Hell to plan it. 
(It SUCKS. He sees Robyn there. It breaks his heart. It's meant to, it's meant to keep him from reaching the palace, seeing his son in Hell, but they don't know Hob. They don't know the grief he's had to overcome in order for him to say, with absolute certainty, that he still wants to live even though it hurts. He reaches that citadel.)
Dream is, of course, horrified to see Hob there. Hob meanwhile is like a jilted exe all, "Yeah, yeah, we're not friends, you stood me up, but I'm still here for you because I'm the bigger person and I fucking care." 
He challenges Lucifer for Dream's helm and their safe passage out of Hell. Lucifer is... Intrigued. She just beat Dream of the Endless, and this human thinks he can beat her when humanity's collective unconsciousness couldn't? His immortality has made him cocky, clearly. So she accepts, and bargains that if Hob loses, he has to give up his immortality. 
There's a good minute where Hob pauses at that and has to really think about whether his arrogant, condescending not-friend is really worth that but yeah, yeah he is. Meanwhile Dream is off to the side. "Don't do this, Hob Gadling. It is not your responsibility to fix my missteps." Basically his version of pleading for Hob to leave and not risk this up until Lucifer is like enough out of you and shuts him up. 
They play. Lucifer starts out with the wolf again, because it's a good starting point to see what direction her opponent plans to take, to get a glimpse into Hob's mindset entering this game. Her plan is, of course, to cause pain enough that Hob will have a hard time thinking, but Hob makes that really fucking hard from the get-go and throws everyone in the room for a loop when his answer is...
"I am the over hunting of the local deer population. Ecosystem destabilizing, predator killing."
Well. Okay. Yeah, sure. Fucking fine. It's hard to kill that painfully. Lucifer manages to come up with, "I am hunting restrictions, nature preserving, ecosystem balancing." 
Hob, by that point, is like, I got this, actually. This might be fun. "I am the expansion of civilization. Forest destroying, hunting law nullifying." 
Matthew, who had been feeling pretty iffy about calling this guy in to help, is no longer questioning that choice. Dream is a little starry-eyed. 
Eventually Hob is the head of the Home Owner's Association. Lucifer is a bear, scrap hunting, person killing. Hob is family, revenge-seeking, bear euthanizing. Lucifer is Pride, argument starter, family destroying. Hob is friendship, blood covenant, thicker than womb water. Lucifer is jealousy, friendship rending, relationship ruining. Hob is personal growth, jealousy ending, apology giving. Lucifer is relapse, progress destroying, confidence killing. Hob is perseverance, step taking, progress rebuilding. On and on until finally Lucifer decides to end this the way she did with Dream and Hob leads her along until it reaches that natural conclusion, the death of all. 
Now there's some temptation there to go with the obvious, since he can't die even if the universe was destroyed. At least he doesn't think so. But he had already decided that it was an obvious choice to go for and he could think of a few clever ways Lucifer might get around that. So instead, Hob goes the far better choice and personal insult of being God, universe creator, life giver. He's very proud of himself when the demons erupt into boos and Lucifer looks about ready to rip his fucking throat out with her teeth. 
The way he sees it, there are two choices for her there, unless she really pulls something unexpected out of her ass. Option one is the whole "what's a god to an atheist" thing in which Hob would have then been a miracle, faith affirming, god-proving. Not much can destroy a miracle. 
But Lucifer, livid and prideful, goes with option two. "I am Lucifer Morningstar, God defying, His Kingdom ripped sunder!" 
And Hob has the absolute glee to grin and go, "I am Hob Gadling, clever, death defying, and triumphant over Lucifer Morningstar."
He and Dream are promptly kicked out of Hell on their asses, Dream's helm is thrown at his head with a force strong enough to break the sound barrier, and the gates are slammed shut behind them. The whole thing is so humiliating that Lucifer has to change their gender and moves to LA to open a nightclub.

Tumblr media
Fuck. Rafe had me so fucking horny all day. It's not even his fault..I have been thinking about him dicking me down since lunchtime. The ache between my legs was almost too much at this point. My core was begging to be touched, but unfortunately Rafe isn't home. He went on a business trip with Ward, leaving it to me to pleasure myself. He did tell me to message him any time I feel horny and he would try his best to help, so I might just have to do that.
I was home alone because my parents were making some deals over dinner with some new clients.
But before I do anything, I really want to take a shower, I feel disgusting after work every time. I work at a little restaurant called The Wreck with my friend Kie. She got me the job when I told her I didn't want to work for my parents, at least not yet. Since I started working with her, I've met her friends and they seem to like me, well for the most part. JJ is still warming up to me, and he hates Rafe for some reason. All of them do. I understand he can be an asshole sometimes, but I wouldn't go as far as to say I hate him.
After I took my shower I didn't bother putting clothes on. I wanted to send Rafe a little surprise while he was gone.
Y/N: I took this for you baby
Y/N: Photo
I quickly hit send because I was nervous about his reaction but deep down I know he'll love it. I heard a ding from my phone, letting me know I got a message.
???: All for me? Damn Y/L/N...maybe I was wrong about you
My eyes nearly popped out of my head as my heart was beating against my chest. Then I heard another ding come from my phone.
???: Photo
Only a second later and another message came through.
???: That one's all for you.
I sent my fucking nude pic to JJ?? And he sent me one back? How the hell did that happen??? I started freaking out, knowing that Rafe would fucking kill him..and me, but mainly him.
JJ: What made ya come to your senses?
I had no idea how to respond to him. This has never happened before. Maybe I should just be honest.
Y/N: oh hey..can you just delete that and pretend you never saw it...? that wasn't meant for you JJ...
JJ: if it was sent to me, I was meant to see it, the universe just works that way ;)
He saw that I opened the text and that I wasn't responding. Those three dots popped up as he was typing.
JJ: okay, hey I'm sorry. where u at rn? I'll come meet ya n we can talk bout this
My heart nearly bursts out of my chest when I read that message. I'm nervous and I don't know what to do. Fuck. I should clear the air with him.
Y/N: my house..
JJ: drop your pin
I hesitate before sending this man my address. This could go horribly wrong, and I don't have Rafe here to protect me. Whatever, I'm already in this deep and it's just JJ what's the worst he could do?
Y/N: 📍
JJ: omw
I stood from my bed and started looking for an outfit to wear. I don't know why I cared what I looked like for JJ..I shouldn't, but I did. I ended up choosing a little white skirt with a cute blue crop top to go with it.
It took maybe 10 minutes before I heard a knock at my door. I still wasn't entirely sure if I should answer it, knowing who was on the other side, and knowing what he just saw...
I decided that I should just open the door and hopefully he'll understand the mistake.
My heart started pounding again as my hand reached for the knob. Suddenly I was greeted by a familiar face...but it wasn't JJ...
"Rafe?? " I question sounding more shocked than happy. "What are you doing here?" My anxiety was through the roof at this point, knowing JJ is probably just around the corner. Rafe let himself into my house by grabbing my face and pulling me into a heated kiss. He used his foot to kick the door closed, then pinned me against the wall next to it.
"Wanted to surprise my princess. The job got done early. I landed 30 mins ago, rushed over to see you." He says all while rubbing me up and down. "Look at this fuckin outfit, almost like you knew I was coming over princess.." He reached hand up my skirt and soon realized I wasn't wearing any panties. "Naughty girl.." Rafe smirked before attacking my neck.
About a minute later there was a knock on the door. He waved it off and said to just ignore them and they'll go away. Another knock pounded from the other side of the door. "Y/N?? Are you home?" You recognized his voice. Rafe pulled away looking slightly confused before looking through the peephole.
"What the fuck is JJ doing here?" He said gritting his teeth. I toyed with my fingers and bit my lip not knowing how to tell him the truth. Next thing I know he swings the door open.
"Hey ba- Rafe?? ...Was this a fuckin set up?" JJ questioned. I shook my head no as both men stared at me.
JJ came inside and closed the door behind him before joining Rafe and I in the living room. I was told to sit on the couch so I obeyed. The guys stood in front of me towering over me with their arms crossed, trying not to kill me or each other.
"What is he doing here?!" They both asked angrily at the same time. "Can you two sit down before I continue?" I ask shyly. The guys responded with a harsh 'No' timed almost as perfectly as before.
"Okay so here's what happened..." I trail off and explained the entire situation before Rafe turns to face JJ, looking like he is about to murder him.
At some point Rafe lunged at JJ and I had to get in the middle. Rafe grabbed my shoulders trying to move me out of the way. JJ had his hands on my hips trying to keep me in between them. It felt like they were going to split me in half.
It took a while but I eventually got them to go talk it out in my room. I can't speak guy, so maybe they would have an easier time hearing it from each other.
After a while I didn't hear them talking anymore, which was concerning, Rafe may have actually killed JJ..
I went to my room and knocked before entering. I was greeted with a naked Rafe picking me up before laying me on my bed. He placed his lips on mine, giving me one of the most intense kisses I've ever had. "Rafe- whe-wheres J-" I tried to question. "Don't worry about it. He's fine. Enjoy this." He kissed down my jaw and to my sweet spot, sucking on it for as long as he could, in order to mark me.
Rafe doesn't usually give me hickies unless he is angry-fucking me. He must have sent JJ home after their talk so we could have this moment. At least he's not mad at me anymore.
"So you wore this slutty outfit for Maybank huh?" He asked and flipped me onto my stomach, hiking my skirt up above my ass. "And no fuckin panties. You really are a fuckin slut." Rafe huffed before giving me a hard slap across my ass, causing me to yelp as a tear prickled in my eye.
"I'm gonna make you choke on my fuckin cock.." He smirks before flipping me back over. He comes over and hovers my face, his knees on either side of my head. Rafe dipped his cock into my mouth slowly before full on fucking my mouth. "Mmm yeah, suck that fucking cock you whore!" He somewhat gently slaps my face, still pushing in and out of my throat.
As I was gagging on Rafe's dick I felt something down between my legs. A cold, wet, tongue met the heat between my legs and I couldn't see it. "Wait till you see her face Maybank, she makes a pretty face when you fuck her." Rafe announced which resulted in a hum from the mouth attached to my clit.
JJ was eating me out...while Rafe was fucking my face...
Fuck.
I moaned onto Rafe's dick as he continued to fuck my throat. In turn, my moans made Rafe moan. "How'd you say she liked it Rafe..." JJ questioned before shoving his cock inside of me. A loud moan escaped the best it could when he filled me up. "...by surprise, right?" He chuckled as Rafe nodded.
JJ's thrusts caused Rafe's thrusts to go faster and harder. But they both stopped suddenly. Pulling out of both of my holes and they stood next to the bed, hovering me. "What was that??" I questioned, now blushing from seeing JJ's dick for the first time.
Of course he noticed and had to be an ass. JJ smirked at me while stroking himself. "Don't pretend you didn't like it princess.." He slows his motions down before he eventually stops. "Not saying I didn't like it- just confused. You two were literally just about to kill each other, and now you're fucking me." I say confused.
"We came to a conclusion baby. You lead JJ on..and you cheated on me. But we are ready to forgive you, if you let us have some fun with you babydoll.." Rafe simply stated, making me feel like shit because that was not my intention. I tried to counter what he said, but he just shushed me.
"Whaddya say princess?" JJ asked with a smirk. "Yea I mean...it's the least I could do.." I smile sheepishly to them. Rafe stepped between my legs and gave me a long kiss. "I love you, but I want you to understand that this is a one time thing so JJ doesn't have to keep pining after you. So whatever you want from him, make sure you get it from him now, you're still mine." Rafe explained. I'm surprised he's acting this way. He never lets anyone touch his things, especially me.
"What's first?" I asked the guys. "Just let us make you feel good baby, you won't have to do any work, unless you wanna." JJ said settling on the bed next to me. "You said anything I want?" I looked up to Rafe with glossy eyes. He nods with his arms crossed.
"JJ can I suck your dick while Rafe fucks me?" I started to blush because never in a million years did I think this would be happening. "I'd love that princess." He smiled at me.
I got off the bed and got to my knees in front of JJ. My hands sat on his thighs as my mouth lowered onto his cock. "Hmmm fuck.." He moaned out, placing his hand on my head. I felt Rafe come over and line himself up with me. "I love this fuckin skirt baby.." He says before slipping into my wet pussy, which caused me to moan on JJ's dick, which caused JJ to let out a moan of his own.
The guys were trying to set a steady pace between the both of them. JJ was bobbing my head up and down in time with Rafe's thrusts, and boy did it feel, so fucking good.
At one point they made me feel so good and I let out a long moan.
"Good Girl "
I heard them both say at the same time. A string of moans were escaping us all as they continued. Rafe was pounding into me as fast as he could. JJ was now standing with a fistful of my hair, fucking my face. I popped my mouth off of JJ and replaced it with my hand. "If you two don't stop going full force- I'm gonna cum right now.." I whine out.
They both groaned as they pulled away. I got back on the bed and sat in between them, one hand each, shooting to their hair, and massaging. They both started feeling me up, placing kisses wherever they could reach. The moment was over as fast as it came. JJ sat with his back against my headboard and pulled me to sit between his legs.
Rafe crawled onto the bed after JJ put his legs between mine to keep them spread open. I couldn't close them even if I wanted to. Rafe laid between my legs and started lightly sprinkling kisses on my lower lips.
JJ attached his lips to my neck, giving me a hickey, opposite to the one Rafe had made earlier.
Rafe moved to my clit with his mouth and inserted a few fingers into my hole. I gasped and JJ put his hands under my shirt in response.
"Why ya still wearin' this baby? Shoulda been gone a long time ago.." He says before taking my crop top off. Leaving me in my bra and my skirt. He groped my tits as Rafe sucked and fingered me. I was a moaning mess. Everything felt too good. "Guys- l-like I said before..." I say but it's too late and I cum all over Rafe's fingers.
Rafe sat up before placing his fingers in his mouth, sucking off every little drop that was left of me. "Good girl.." He smirked at me. "But, you gotta cum for JJ too princess.." Rafe stated.
I was still coming down from my high. "Cum again..?" He only nodded before sitting in the chair in front of my vanity. He turned it so he could see us sitting on the bed.
"Go ahead Maybank..." He smirked. Just as he was given the green light, JJ flipped us over so he was hovering me. "Hey there princess..." He smirked before planting a kiss on my lips. This felt so wrong to do so I looked to Rafe for some guidance.
He just sat there slowly rubbing his dick, watching us. He nodded for me to continue.
Suddenly this felt so right. I was supposed to have fun with JJ, for Rafe. JJ leaned down to my ear to whisper. "You looked so fucking good in that picture you sent me." He started kissing my neck. "I know you sent it on purpose, don't worry I won't tell him." He whispered.
His hands lifted me off the bed to take my bra off. JJ threw the garment to the side, landing in front of Rafe. He kissed me so hungrily and so passionately it almost hurt. "Jayj..." I whimpered into the kiss. He started grinding his hips against me, his dick touching my clit every time. "I know princess.." He whispered. "C'mere, I wanna make you cum in doggy." He says then plants another kiss to my lips.
I got up on my hands and knees before JJ could move me. "Wrong way baby...I wanna see your face when he fucks you..." I heard Rafe say from the chair. I turned around just like he asked. JJ got behind me when I was settled. I heard a spitting sound and a second later I felt his hand lathering my hole. "Mmmm" I moaned while I grinded back onto his fingers.
"Patience baby.." JJ said before slapping my hole which resulted in me letting out another moan. He grabbed his cock and started teasing my slut with his tip. I moved to lay on my forearms with my ass in the air. My eyes wandered over to Rafe, he was still stroking himself slowly while watching us. His lips curled up into a smirk when he saw the face I made when JJ pushed his length into pussy.
I let out a loud moan and looked Rafe in the eyes as JJ slowly rocked his hips. As JJ quickened his pace, Rafe did too. Almost like he wasn't to cum with us, but didn't want...involved..?
The room was filled with the sounds of moans and skin slapping against each other as JJ fucked me senseless. Rafe had rolled his head back but his eyes stayed on us.
I felt JJ reach for my hair and pull it back, making me arch. The slightly new angle was enough to push me over the edge. "You're such a a good fucking girl for me..." JJ says as I moan out. "JJ harder.." I couldn't say anything else. It was odd moaning another mans name but they both loved it, which made me feel dirty.
JJ gladly fucked me harder. I was going between watching Rafe fuck his hand and watching JJ in the mirror. "Fuck you're so tight princess..." He dragged out. "I'm so close Jayj..." I announce with a whine. Rafe caught my attention with a low groan. I looked over and saw his cum shooting up onto his stomach.
He was still yanking himself, riding out his high, when he said "JJ I want you to cum in her fucking pussy". I couldn't help but moan, feeling JJ's thick cock in my pussy, watching Rafe cum, and him saying THAT.
JJ let go of my hair and held my hips, bringing them backwards to meet his. We were both a moaning mess and Rafe was just watching, sitting there in his mess. He looked afraid to blink, like he was going to miss something. I pushed back onto JJ's dick, wanting more, he was making me feel so good and I didn't want it to end.
"Fuck Jayj- i-im gon-gonnaaa cum" I squeal out. "Me too princess. Are you ready?" I nod after he asked. He counted us down before with both released together, screaming each other's names. I fucked myself with his dick, riding out my high.
"Good girl.." He said biting his lip, helping guide my ass. He slipped out when we were done and gave me a long sloppy kiss, trying to savor the moment, knowing it would never happen again.
Rafe walked away at some point to clean himself up, JJ and I just continued to make out to fill the silence and need. When Rafe returned we all sat on the bed talking about what just happened. "How did it feel?" Rafe asked me. "He's really good.." I say panting, getting butterflies from the recent memory. He smiled at me and JJ before speaking.
"Y/N, I loved the way your face looked when JJ was taking you from behind..." He said while rubbing my back. "I suggest we make this a regular thing." I nearly choked when I heard him say that.
Rafe Cameron...never...shares.
"I 1000% agree" JJ said almost too enthusiastically which made me giggle. "That was both the craziest and sexiest shit I've ever been a part of. Of course I'd love to." I say smiling.
He smiled and I could tell he had a mischievous thought. "Next time I wanna try something new." He smirked to me and JJ.
"I will do whatever you two want if it feels that good.." I blush, looking between both of them.
"Good girl " They are so creepy with that shit...but it's so sexyyyy.

I really want to fluster both housewife! and Academy! Scara 🥰🥰🥰
(I love his toothpaste like color palette and his mischievous face his face in the reveal)
academy! scara and housewife! scara are two alternate universes... but here i put them so they'd be in the same timeline... just for the fantasy of having two scaras by my side <3
you might like: yan! academy scara hcs, yan! housewife! scara hcs
( mentions of murder, mentions of cheating )
Tumblr media
"n– no way..."
the little one wearing an elegant uniform stares at the scene in unabashed horror, slowly backing away from the horror in front of him. this can't be... it shouldn't be... how in the world could he have done this to himself!
he hits the couch and he falls back into it, but his shaking eyes still look at them with both fury and fear.
with a shaky, accusing finger, the student scara points up at the culprits, who still curiously stare at him:
"why am i the housewife?!"
you answer with a shit-eating grin, bringing your equally appalled kuni closer to you.
"the real question is: why not?"
Tumblr media
the tea lays untouched on the coffee table as the two kunis glare at each other in a tense silence. you sit in the middle, grinning nervously as you sip from your own cup.
this is exactly your dream come true, literally. just the night before you dreamt of how you met kuni back in school, and how you wished to see that inexperienced cutie again. it never occurred to you that your wish would actually come true... but now you know that kuni would never get along with himself.
"love..." you try coaxing your partner. the younger one's scowl deepens at the corny nickname. "come on, at least try to get along with him for the time being. it's just you, but younger–!"
"that doesn't fucking mean i have to get along with this brat!"
"who the fuck are you calling a brat?!"
you sigh once more as yelling and bickering ensues between the two of them.
"why is he here anyway?" kuni huffs, taking a seat next to you and huddling closer. he doesn't miss the way scara's eyes flash when he drapes himself all over you, and smiles smugly in victory. he turns to look up at your nervous face and narrows his brows. "hey. you look like you know something."
you try to look away from his probing eyes, but kuni pouts and grabs your cheeks to turn you back to him. "hey. tell. me!"
"mmm... well, i might have wished it...?"
the two widen their eyes, but scara covers up his shock with a bit more disgust as he inches farther away from you. "... pervert."
kuni looks a bit more heartbroken than his younger counterpart. and... a bit more... oh. you know this look. "you... wished? you wished for another me...?" ugh... you'd really like it he didn't do this in front of the younger scara, who looks absolutely lost about what's happening. you wanted to look cool in front of him, dammit! "am i not enough for you? huh?" he starts shaking you by the shoulder, already sitting on your lap and looking manic. "do you think i don't satisfy you anymore?!"
"kuni... kuni, please, you know i love you..."
"then why—!"
SLAM! you jolt as scara slams his teacup against the table. he hovers over the both of you with the glare you were so familiar with back in school. "this is pathetic." he nearly spits, lips curling in spite at his counterpart. "this needy... pathetic thing is supposed to be me? when i worked my ass off so i wouldn't be overshadowed by my sisters? and now..." his purple eyes turn to you, absolutely seething.
"i'm depending on the fucking charity student?"
kuni pulls away from you, standing face to face with scara. while the two are having a stare-off, you're just completely lost in your own fantasies. two kunis... standing over you... wow he hasn't grown an inch over the years... but two kunis.
"if you hate it so much then why don't you leave."
scara sneers right back. "oh i could if i would. but i need to go back to my time and the one who brought me here is the peasant."
"i'm going to fucking kill you."
"oh let's see how well that's going to go for you, future me."
before your pretty wife and his younger self could actually try and kill each other, you step in before things could get hotter worse. "that's... that's enough alright? we'll try to send younger you back to his time. i'm sure he has tons of studying to get back to..."
kuni glares at you. "we? you brought this upon yourself! have fun playing around with some other man, cheater!" he turns to leave, but you grab him by the arm and pull him closer to you.
"oh come on baby," you whine, fingering his tiny waist as you pout. "it was just a little fantasy of mine. two kunis by my side, y'know? that's how much i love you!"
kuni blushes as you shower kisses on his neck and cheek, trying to push you away while he's cherry red. "p-pervert! not– not in front of me—!"
speaking of his younger self... you turn to scara, who is staring the both of you with the same wide-eyed blush your wife is wearing. when his nervous eyes catch yours, he tries to scowl, but it's clear that he's just as embarrassed and needy as his counterpart.
"little kuni~ ♡" you coo, mischievous smirk painting your features already. "do you want to join in?"
steam seems to blow out of his ears as he's taken aback by such a shameless invitation. "wh– why would i want that?! w-weirdo!"
"oh come on!" you laugh. you flop down on the couch with your needy partner seated on one knee and grin up at scara. "i knew of your cute little crush ever since we were first-years, y'know?"
"you did?!"
both versions seem even more flustered than before, if that was possible. you give a lighthearted laugh before bringing scara on your lap and to your chest. you brush their identical purple bangs and press a kiss on their lips.
what a delight. two identical kunis looking up at you all teary-eyed and weak from a single kiss. you really are a pervert, doing this to your pretty little wife.
"you're the same person, aren't you?" you grin. "so this won't count as cheating, right~?"

Wolf Spider pt.5
Sam Carpenter x Spider-Man!Reader
Tumblr media
How is it that your pal and fellow Spider-Man Hobie Brown can just walk into a room and everyone loves him? He would just smile and say he’s just that cool.
Mindy and Chad were practically fans of Hobie as soon as he walked through the door with you.
"This is my bruv, Hobie Brown" you introduce him to the Core Four. "Hobie this is Sam, Tara, Chad, Mindy and Ethan"
"Hey" Hobie smiles "pleasure meetin' Wolf's mates"
"Dude how do you look cool in that mask and without it?" Chad asks excitedly
"I'm always this cool, mate" Hobie smirks
"So you brought another spider person from another universe to help us hunt down a masked killer?" Tara asks
"I wasn't asked" Hobie smirks, "I showed up."
It was then that Detective Bailey came through the door, "oh great there's two now"
"Spider Punk is my closest mate" you answer, "my bruv"
Ethan chimes in, "you know if we want to take down Ghostface, why don't we just set a trap"
"Traps?" Hobie scoffs, "Are we taking down a killer or a Scooby villain?"
"If we're gonna do this," Sam says, "we need to do it somewhere out in the open"
"Ghostface can strike anywhere" Mindy chimes, "he's attacked from within a van before!"
The trap was set. Sam and Tara would explore Central Park as you and Hobie manned the comms from the nearby building's edge.
"Hunting ghosts now?" Hobie chuckles, "remember when we were hunting goblins?"
"Red Goblin was the worst" you answer back "how's Gwen"
"still in love with this lad Miles"
"I hope Miles is alright with Gwen spending nights at your flat"
"She uses my guest room" Hobie lightly punches you stifling a laugh.
"Be sure to tell Miles that when you meet him"
You see Sam quickly dial her phone as she runs out of Central Park. Your phone rings.
"Yeah babe?"
"Gale's! Ghostface is at Gale's!!!" your face goes ghost white.
"oh tosh!" Hobie slips his mask back on as you and him swing off at lightning fast speed towards your aunt's house.
You and Hobie reach Gale's apartment window as Ghostface throws Gale through her coffee table and stabs her in the gut.
You and your punk rocker bruv crash through the window and dive right at the killer. You land a sucker punch on the slasher and Hobie slams the culprit in the face with his guitar.
Ghostface slams to the ground.
Hobie smirks, "And they say music's bad-" SNICK! Ghostface stabs Hobie in the right lung.
"Hobie!!!" you scream as you web Gale's loveseat and fling it right into the Ghostface, knocking the slasher out the apartment window. The slasher crashes to the apartment below.
"Hobie?!" you try to keep yourself sane as you rush past your wounded aunt and to your best mate. Hobie clutches his rib, a little bit of blood oozes from his wound, "i-it's just a flesh wound"
"get out of here, bruv!" you practically order him. "I can't lose you too."
Hobie presses a button on his watch, summoning a portal, "I will be back, mate. Good as new."
"I know you will" you whisper back as he disappears into the portal. Your only back up, wounded and having to flee for his life.
Gale weakly reaches for you, a little bit of blood leaking from her mouth. You take her hand. Gale whispers, "tell Sydney he didn't get me"
"I will" you try to hold back the tears. "You're gonna be okay Aunt Gale"
"Great power, great---" her hand slips from yours. The paramedics and backup police officers burst through the front door.
You were practically catatonic as the EMTs loading Gale into the ambulance. Your aunt was almost killed by Ghostface. He knew what was most important to you. Sam runs in and wraps an arm around you but somehow her touch couldn't calm your soul right now.
This shouldn't have happened, the symbiote hisses in your ear, let me take control.
Hobie was wounded. Gale was at death's door. Your family was on the run. The temptation to hand control over to Venom was almost too great.
"We've been playing defense for too long" Chad states with a surprising amount of confidence, "it's time we hunt him instead"
The symbiote within hisses, I like the sound of that.
To Be Continued...

Hey!! It's 🌼 Anon again ❤️! (Here with angst as you have wanted 😈)
I wanted to know if I could request fuyuhiko (a bit of a new thing for me 💀), mondo, Chihiro, ryoma, and Akane with a s/o that has horrible luck when it comes to dating. (projection 😯) like everyone they've dated ended up being horrible, it didn't go well or work well, something s/o couldn't control was an issue, ect.
And it's to the point thier scared of being with someone, going out with someone, ect. Or feel like it's the world telling them that they shouldn't date anyone or that they'll never be loved. Kinda a hurt/comfort but I don't want you to hold back on the hurt part 🥹 (still want some fluff though 😣💕 obviously)
Your wish is my command >:3
Warnings: Yelling, swearing, minor arguments, insecurities
Fuyuhiko, Mondo, Chihiro, Ryoma and Akane With an S/O Who Has Bad Luck with Dating
Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu
Tumblr media
He doesn't get why you're so anxious around him
Sure, he's a yakuza boss, but it's not like he's killed anyone
Recently
He's been as gentle as he can be, but you're still so stiff when you're out together
You can barely even make eye contact with him
It kind of frustrates him honestly
On your fifth date, he planned to make things official
But you stared at your lap and fidgeted with your fingers anxiously
At that point, he had enough
"Look, I've done everything I can do for you, and you can't even look me in the fuckin' eyes! What the hell is your problem?! You're lucky I even asked you out, and you're just gonna sit around like an ungrateful little--?!"
He stopped himself before he could finish
That unfortunately made things worse, and you stood up and rushed out with tears in your eyes
He internally berated himself for being stupid before going after you
"Hey, uh... Look, I'm sorry for blowin' up at you. I just don't get why you're so afraid to date me. I've been trying to be gentle, but like... I-Is there something I'm missing?"
"...What's the point?"
"Huh?"
"Every date I've been on, everything went to shit. It either ended right in the middle, something came up and we had to stop, or my date turned out to be a gigantic asshat. And this one didn't go well either, so what's the point in trying anymore? The universe clearly doesn't want me to be happy."
Fuyuhiko looked at you in sadness
He felt even worse for lashing out at you before
He awkwardly approached you and placed his hand on yours
"...I'm sorry. I had no idea."
After that, he asked to give it another shot, and you agreed
He promised to be gentler and more patient with you, and he delivered
He got better at containing his anger, and you started feeling more and more comfortable with him
Once he officially asked you out, things only got better from there
He really likes you, and he doesn't want to ruin it, especially after so many of your other dates had gone wrong before
Chihiro Fujisaki
Tumblr media
He doesn't have a lot of experience with dating
The few crushes he did have were put off by him, either by him "being weak for a boy," or by dressing as a girl
But you were sweet to him, and you never judged him for anything
So naturally, he got feelings for you and asked you out
He made conversation with you, but you seemed really uncomfortable for some reason
He was worried that he did something wrong, and he got anxious too
"Hey, um... Is everything okay? Did I do something wrong?"
"Huh? No, it's just... Every date I've been on went wrong, and I just don't seem to have good luck with these things. And I like you a lot, so I really want this to work out, but... The universe doesn't seem to want that for me."
He looked at you sadly before taking your hand in his
"I'm sorry to hear that, (Name). I know it might feel that way, but you deserve to be happy. And if you don't want to continue this date, I understand. But I'll never do anything to hurt you, I promise."
He then gave you a reassuring smile that helps ease your doubts
He seemed genuine, so you agreed to keep it going
And ever since then, he treated you with nothing but kindness
He understood your worries and was very patient with you
And you ended up developing a nice relationship
Mondo Owada
Tumblr media
He's also not the most gentle guy
He's loud, he's scary, he's angry
But he fell for you, and he asked you out
Even the way he approached you was intimidating, but you gave it a chance, even though you knew it was probably gonna go to hell
While you were on the date, you kept your gaze away from his and only spoke when he spoke first
He doesn't remember acting like a jerk to you, so why are you so weird around him?
Eventually, he got frustrated and slammed his hands on the table
"Hey! What the fuck's your problem?! I took time out of my day to take you on a date, and this is the thanks I get?! I didn't do a damn thing to you, and you're clearly into me, so why don't you fuckin' act like it?!'
That caused you to tear up and bail on the date, leaving Mondo there alone, feeling angry at himself
He left you alone for the rest of the night before approaching you the next day with a bouquet of flowers
"Hey, uh... Look, sorry about yesterday."
You looked at him in surprise
Anytime someone bailed on a date or lashed out at you, they never apologized or tried to reach out to you
You could only stare at him in surprise, making him feel even more awkward
"Jeez, what's that look for? I'm tryin' to make it right."
"But... Why?"
"Huh?"
"Why are you trying? Every date I've ever been on ended terribly, and so did ours. The universe clearly doesn't want me to date anyone, so why are you here?"
He looked at you in surprise, and he finally understood your behavior from the night before
He felt even worse for lashing out at you
"Hey, look. I'm sorry for yelling at you last night. I was just mad that you were acting so weird, but now I get it. It's not gonna happen again, I swear. So... If you wanna give this another shot, what do you say I pick you up at 8:00? I swear this date will be better."
You were hesitant, but you agreed
And true to his word, Mondo was much more gentle with you
The date went much better, and as you kept going out together, you started to find hope again
Ryoma Hoshi
Tumblr media
He's not loud or angry, just really quiet and awkward
He's not really the type of guy who chooses to socialize in his free time
But he still ended up falling for you, and after he came to terms with it, he asked you out
For some reason, you were even more stiff and awkward than he was
He found himself trying to start the conversation, in sharp contrast to his usual quiet demeanor
Eventually, he just asked what the issue was
"Hey, kid. Did I do something to make you uncomfortable? If you're just awkward, I get it, but is there anything I can do to make it easier?"
"No, it's not you. I just don't have great luck when it comes to dating."
"Oh."
Is that all?
He's not gonna ask what happened, but he lets you know that he's really into you, and that he's not gonna ditch you or treat you badly
You're the only one who's ever made him feel this way, and he's damn well not gonna screw it up
Akane Owari
Tumblr media
She's not terribly aggressive, but she's not the most gentle either
She's well-known for her strength, and for getting violent on occasion
But she has a gentle side, and it caused her to develop feelings for you
She was confident when she asked you out, but she didn't know just how nervous you were
Seeing you so stiff and uncomfortable confused her, and she didn't ask about it until you tried to make an excuse to leave
"Hey, what gives? Aren't ya havin' a good time? Come to think of it, you've been actin' weird this whole time. What's your deal?"
"Sorry, it's just... I've gone on dates before, and none of them went well at all. It was either the person I was with, or something came up that I couldn't control. I just don't have good luck with these things."
"Ohhhh. Well, you don't hafta worry. I'm not gonna hurt ya or anything like that. I'm really into you, ya know? And I'm definitely not gonna screw over a sweet person like you!"
With that, you continued your date, and you grew more comfortable as you did so
Now that Akane knew about your past unfortunate experiences, she made sure to be patient with you, and not to get too aggressive with you
And your relationship only got better from there

*Eclipse walks up a hill. Ominously looking around. Finally looking towards the horizon and the sunset. Looking behind him to see the moon rise. A scowl growing on his face. Clenching his fists. Starting to grumble to himself.*
Eclipse: What did I do to deserve this. Wandering around endlessly looking for something. Anyone. Just to figure out why I'm alive. Why am I alive. For some universes big joke!
*Eclipse screams at the sunset. Hands raising to cover his face. Almost pulling on his rays.*
Eclipse: Hahaha. Brought back over and over and over again just to be some villain. For what? To get revenge on a dead Moon! The original me had a reason. The backup me was just trying to finish the previous ones work. What am I supposed to do?! We got what we wanted. That want is gone now. All that's left is to get revenge on the moon. Which we've already done over and over! We had a chance to kill him, and we didn't. Why couldn't I just say dead!
*Eclipse collapses on the ground. Pulling on his rays. A sad scowl on his face. Clearly trying to not cry and stay angry.*
Eclipse: Why am I alive! Why! Is this some sort of purgatory punishment!? Am I only being brought back so I can fail again! I know what I did to Sun was wrong. I know I shouldn't have hurt lunar. I didn't know what else to do though! He abandoned me! I spent a year locked up in somebody's head. Who wouldn't be angry! I wanted him to pay! I wanted to destroy the life he left me for. I hurt sun so I could get back at it. And then I hurt lunar cuz I didn't want to let go! I wanted Moon to pay forever! I shouldn't have done it! I shouldn't have hurt him. Backup shouldn't have gotten revenge for the original. I don't even know if he knew what he was doing at that point.
*Eclipse brings up his knees and buries his face. Hands pulling and covering his rays.*
Eclipse: I haven't done anything. Not really. I don't even know if backup did anything more than kill lunar. Original did the rest. Original did everything and we're paying for it. All I did was kidnap ruin and lay some threats. All I know is what I remember. I didn't do anything! Yet I'm the one who pays! I'm again locked up because of moon. I'm being tormented all over again because of moon. Why do people side with him! Do they not know what he did! The cycle is just repeating. I'm only resentful because other versions of me are resentful. I don't have a reason to, but this is a good goddamn reason! Death would be better than this!
*Eclipse starts to sob. Unable to speak. Only repeating the he didn't do anything. Why is he paying for others. Why is the moon like this. Interrupted by a ringing phone.*
Moon: Hey bitch get your ass over here.
*Eclipse doesn't answer. Trying to compose himself. Letting out an audible shutter as he tries to breathe.*
Moon: Oh what. Did I catch you crying? Really? What a joke. Boohoo for you, You got what was coming. Now move!
*Eclipse doesn't move. Attempting to wipe tears.*
Moon: I said get up jackass! If you don't cooperate I will kill you! I don't care about whatever the fuck you're going through. You're now under my thumb, and I'm not going to give a shit! Get over here, Now!
*Eclipse finally stumbles up. Finally answering.*
Eclipse: I'm coming.
Moon: Finally! I don't need you being a cry baby stopping with our search. Get over here and be quick. I'll kill you otherwise.
*Moon hangs up the call. Eclipse turns around and looks towards the rising moon. Giving a sorrowful angry glance towards it before walking off.*

How good of a parent is George Stacy?
Okay, this was going to be part of another post, but it got so long that I decided that you know what? Let's give its own.
I want to make one about Miles's parents and a bit of a preview: 1) Rio and Jeff, while not perfect, LEAGUES better than George, and all things considered they almost deserve a medal for how patient they are about the situation and 2) Part of the reason that post hasn't come out yet, is because I had been trying to get dig some sources about some cultural differences between America vs Latin America, as well as Puerto Rico and the importance of family (because I am not from PR, just to make sure instead of assuming is similar because our countries aren't that far,) and how diaspora also impacts this.
As you can imagine, that's a lot of things to consider, unlike this, that is the equivalent of not-so-well adjust adult in their mids twenties screaming about adult parents because hey, I am bitter and I think Gwen deserves better.
This also will talk a bit about cops, implied childhood neglect, nothing would get too graphic but take this into account.
Let's go!
Tumblr media
There are many reasons why I think this, but let's start with the biggest one: Peter's death.
Now, I can't say this is entirely George's fault; if you see things from his perspective, it all makes sense in his eyes.
In his eyes, you need to have a public face when you do this type of job, you shouldn't hide. That sounds dumb, especially when taking into account the type of villains spider people fight, which usually is the type that will try to go to your loved ones to hurt you.
However, he kind of has a point. If there is damage, if someone else gets hurt, even by accident, the person who did should be able to face consequences.
Do police do this? Not really, at least not in most places I had lived, maybe is different somewhere else, but let's not dig too much into politics here. Perhaps in Gwen's universe the police system works; this is a work of fiction with super senses that can travel past dimensions and time, this isn't the craziest thing.
Going back to the point.
In George's eyes, SpiderWoman, at least at the beginning, should give a name, since you shouldn't hide with that amount of power. The guy doesn't realize the fine print because either he isn't aware of it, or thinks the bad guys can be stopped easily enough that the vigilante in question shouldn't worry.
Then, the next time you see her, she is with the corpse of your daughter's best friend; and for how she behaves later; the last friend she has to his knowledge.
Sure, he doesn't have any idea of what happened, but as far as he knows, she killed him. This also checks out with the fact that he believes you shouldn't hide, and go by the book; he probably believes that if she truly didn't do anything, Spiderwoman would have cooperated with the police because is innocent; so if she is running, is because she is guilty.
Could all this be fixed if she had talked to him at some point about this? While she was hugging Peter's corpse, while grieving him, before this all happened? Maybe, maybe if he could have known what was at risk, why she was doing it; and emotions weren't running high, this could have been better.
There is some blame on both sides in this situation, however-
Tumblr media
This, is a good indicator of something.
Look, we don't have an exact time of how long has been since Peter died, or when exactly this conversation happened, we aren't even sure how much time has been since ITSV in this instant either. We only know this conversation happened a few months before ATSV, and that's not much.
However, I can't believe this is too recent, anyone feels free to bring me the evidence; but until we have something set in stone, I believe Peter died not so long after Gwen became Spider Woman, if only because the bite and the death of someone close to them are fairly close. And by ITSV, Gwen already has been SpiderWoman for 2 years.
(I don't think it was a matter of days, personal headcanon is a few weeks, since Peter had pictures of SpiderWoman and everyone close to her knew about it, which meant she already gathered a bit of a name in the area. As well as enough for Peter to want to be more like her.)
All of this is to say: It has to be a while, and Gwen is clearly not interested in this topic.
Considering the possible timeline, it has been a while since Peter died; I don't think this is the first time they have had a similar conversation, maybe not with Gwen shouting, but with her preferring to not talk about it, or move on.
Is not that odd; sure, partially because Gwen doesn't want her dad to hate her alter ego, but the fact of the matter is this: Gwen is telling her dad that she doesn't want revenge, she doesn't want to continue chasing anyone. Even if Gwen and Spiderwoman were different people; Peter was her best friend, she was the one who suffered the biggest loss, and she has the right to mourn her friend as she wants.
I understand that George needs to do his "job," and that a lot of people feel relieved when the murder of a loved one is captured; but Gwen is telling him that is not going to her grief, and he clearly hasn't been able to help her with that.
I didn't want to put that image because this post is going to be long; however, when Gwen says she quit the band, he looks a bit unsure at first, and then breaks the news that he feels they are closer to capturing Spiderwoman.
George is trying to bring good news, but the fact that she commented on quitting the band, and this was his first idea to how "cheer her up," shows how much he doesn't know how to help her out.
Can't he help her because she isn't telling him the full story? Yes, but that fear comes out of nowhere? Nope!
Tumblr media
I try to do one pic with multiple scenes for this one, it's a trial; hopefully, Tumblr doesn't mess up the quality too badly.
George says "I have a job to do," when Gwen says Spiderwoman may be innocent. Not only this is the truth, George doesn't have all the facts; Spiderwoman was cradling Peter's body when he came by, and she ran away after he pointed a gun at her and has been hostile. The fact that anyone would be nervous at that doesn't come across his mind, let alone; the position she was in with Peter wasn't anything close to lethal. Not to mention that the other students should at least have mentioned, that the lizard try to attack them, and probably that regardless of what happened to Peter was voluntarily or not, as far as everyone is aware, no one knew Peter was the lizard. I doubt they didn't examine his body to figure that one out, considering this is supposed to be attempted murder so they probably checked stuff.
I bet this happens often. Look, I get it, both of my parents are alive but I grew up mostly with one parent for most of my life, and this parent had a very time-consuming job, as well as energy-consuming. I understand that even if we don't know how long Gwen's mom has been gone (though you can guess a while considering she isn't mentioned at all in either movie.) George has a job to do. That being said...Gwen has probably suffered from this; you can see it later in her face, in the fact that her color changes (she was blue as sadness, got warm when they hug, and then went back to blue when he left her.) She probably has to spend a lot of time alone for this, perhaps for a while she was terrified that she would lose her dad forever in a job, considering how dangerous is his line of work. And while it may be the right thing to do for your work/duty, it definitely means he is prioritizing his job over her; Gwen said it more than once, her dad is all she has, and she probably doesn't have an uncle Aaron, even with other living relatives, they are clearly not close enough. If he dies, Gwen effectively becomes an orphan, and goes to the house of someone she isn't close to, blood or not. (Sidenote, hey how are the chances Miles also had the same fear, and both becoming heroes partially, to ensure they can be there for their respective fathers?) Let me tell you a painful truth; even if George has good intentions in doing what he does, none of that eliminates Gwen's pain. If a kid loses a parent in a fire-related accident because the parent was a firefighter and they risked their life, it doesn't mean the kid doesn't grieve a parent just because said parent didn't abandon them like a deadbeat; in fact, if it is for a noble reason, it may make those feelings more complicated and difficult to deal, especially without professional help (that I doubt Gwen has gotten much of.) And I am sorry, but there is a difference even in my hypothetical scenario, because is one thing having a risky job when you have another partner, and in case you have family or friends that can be there for them in case something happens to you. As far as we can see, the closest they had was Ben and May Parker, which is nowhere to be found in the present time. I am sorry, but in my eyes, that's failing Gwen, especially because she is suffering from needing to deal with sudden absences, possible wounds, and scares.
She is giving her big speech as to why she needs to do this after he attempts to walk on her for being salty (which I still feel annoyed at, I think he should have groveled, but WHATEVER, not the point.) And he is trying to justify this as "you need to obey the law no matter what." Look, I understand there are laws for a reason, but laws can be fallible, and in this case, hurt the wrong people. Both in real life and in this moment, if they try to go by the law, things would get worse; Gwen would have her identity leaked, and even if proven innocent, more people would be at risk for it.
The last two pics show the same point but also illustrate the gravity of the situation in different ways. First, George refused to listen to Gwen, despite her trying to explain the situation to him. And btw, the second? that's not when she is masked, that's when she has already revealed her identity, just before Miguel shoots a trap at him. Sure, he may not have pulled the trigger, but that's EXTREMELY close to pointing at her, and let's remind you, he didn't stop because he remembered she was his daughter, he didn't have to point directly at her because Miguel threw a trap to him before it happened; maybe he wouldn't have pointed at her, or truly pull the trigger; however, do I need to say how absolutely HORRIFYING is for him to do this to her?
I know, all of this is happening in a specific timeline of their lives, and doesn't necessarily need to reflect their reality the rest of the time, much less that maybe things were better before Peter's death, or before she became SpiderWoman.
To that, I said: that may be an argument for real life, but this is a movie, normally, you try to show often, things that show you how a dynamic works so you have an idea of what's going on in the character's lives.
(For example, in ITSV, we see in the beginning Miles being late for school, barely getting ready, and talking to a bunch of people before his dad picks him up. While this is a new day for him, it also gives us an idea of what's normal for this family and their dynamics on a semi-regular basis.)
George, repeatedly puts his job over Gwen; there are even other hints in moments I didn't bother to show. And this is not new; as I pointed out, which really is a bad look.
Now, do I think is the worst? No, of course not; I had seen way worse before.
To be fair, this is the defense.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He is interested in what she is doing, and being his idea ask her how the practice went and check on her. Yeah, he didn't know what to say about her quitting, but aside from the guy not being the best emotionally wise (which he looks like Gwen inherited from him, not shocking considering the very likely scenario that the mom kicked the bucket early and may have also had the same issue for all we know,) but he is trying to ask about it and isn't mad for her leaving like that.
I know what you are going to say "WAIT, didn't you put this as a negative earlier?" Yes, and I still think is a negative, however; there are nuances in everything, and if I brought up the bad in that scene, I need to recognize the best. Do I think he should take the hint and drop the topic, at least? Yes, but I say this earlier: He thinks this would help, and in most cases, it does help; a big part of the reason is not going to do it in this scenario is because it makes more messes than anything else, yet if the scenario was exactly what he thought it was, perhaps it would have helped. As far as he is aware, Gwen just wants to drop the subject because she may be disappointed this hasn't been solved already, and the fact that even if it isn't, it looks like the real reason she has become so much angry and solitary.
This one kind of addressed both images, and none of them are big talking points, however, I need to say it: 1) It was HIS idea to ask for a hug, and mind you, asking; maybe is because I am someone who can't hug people they aren't comfortable with, but I prefer people ask me, especially when I am feeling emotional. 2) See how he looks at her, he clearly loves his daughter.
Gwen went to hug him, if he was that much of a horrible father, she wouldn't have done this, let alone as quickly.
I know this one carries controversy, but yes, I believe Gwen is a trans girl, and probably has been out for a while (nope, I don't have sources or similar, just hc based on other clues.) I don't think I can say anything that someone else didn't say already, so I will not analyze why I think this is the case. I will say this; yes, I am aware there is no hard proof in the movie. Yes, I think is okay if other people think her dad is trans, or Peter was, or maybe everyone is just an ally. My only issue is people saying is IMPOSSIBLE to happen, or that is not the case because (insert theory with no hard proof, meaning is okay to believe it, but not to push it down anyone's throats.) With that out of the way; as someone who is trans, I can't say enough about how having a parent supporting a transition is MASSIVE. Especially early on.
He QUITS. Did he wait at the end after doing something absolutely horrifying to her, leaving her in a very vulnerable position that technically, lead her to be in a dangerous position? Yes, it took a while all things considered? Also yes. I consider those factors important, HOWEVER, he decided to quit. While the emotional wounds are probably still there, he is finally listening, and deciding to change for Gwen. Mistakes or not, he is doing the right thing, and is up to Gwen if she can forgive him or not. And she does, which should show something.
Again, it needed a very serious experience, but this was the wake-up call he needed. I didn't show it all, but he says how his job as a Captain doesn't matter anymore, because ultimately he loves her more than his position, and she is at the end of the day, the best thing he has ever done. Not becoming captain, not detaining a dangerous criminal or anything, her. I believe it would have been valid for Gwen if she decided to not forgive her dad, or that they still have a long road to recover; nonetheless, I think when you aren't the one who was directly affected, you need to take into account when someone decides to do the right thing, and turn a new leaf. Is one thing to not be able to move past a betrayal for someone really close to you; and another is hearing someone you know to some degree made mistakes and then fix them. It took me a while (in fact, almost 3 hours; there is another post that is half-done since this was part of something else, but yeah.) While I believe George Stacy did mistakes, he is turning a new leaf, and working to be better. And that's amazing in itself. If anyone thinks that the bare minimum or some of my points were the bare minimum, I think that's fine. My baseline for parenting and judging parents is kind of off, and that's as much detail as I want to give about it. One way or another, I think George for a while, wasn't able to support Gwen in all the ways she needed; he was trying his best, and a few things aren't his fault considering the circumstances. However, Gwen definitely needs more than him. Next, Gwen's possibly wanting a mom, and the role Jess plays in all of this.

Conscience
Pairings: Clone Trooper Veteran (from Kenobi) x f!Reader
Warnings: Tai's struggling with extreme self-hatred, some PTSD, survivor's guilt, etc.
Notes: Just a few more chapters left in the series! (Although knowing me, I might add more.) I'm so thankful to everyone who's stuck around through my absences. Tai's story means so much to me and I'm honored to share it with you all.
[previous chapter] [next chapter]
Tumblr media
He thinks he's going to be sick. They're on a transport, they're hurtling farther and farther away from Daiyu every second, but Tai can't help the sickening feeling in the pit of his stomach.
It wasn't supposed to go like this. He'd finally found something worth fighting for, someone worth living for, and of course he's gone and screwed it up. He just had to go out with you, had to show you off for all the galaxy to see as if he didn't have the most recognizable face in the entire blasted universe. He had to go out of his way to be a fucking idiot and now where's it gotten him, you?
You're huddled together in the cargo hold of a transport that's seen better days and smelled better ones, too. Everything important the pair of you owns is on your backs and when he finally looks at you, really looks at you where you're burrowed into his side, he sees that you're shivering.
"Hey." His arm moves around your shoulders unconsciously. Instinct. It's the first time he's properly touched you since Cody smuggled the pair of you in here. He's felt too tainted to even try.
"I'm okay," you whisper as your eyes dart up, heavy-lidded and bloodshot. "Just a little cold."
Tai swallows. This is all his fault. He doesn't even know what he's doing right now. You shouldn't be here. You should be back in bed, snuggled under the covers and snoring, and maybe, maybe if you're feeling gracious enough, merciful enough, you might let him curl his arms around you and find shelter in your warmth for the night. As if he fucking deserves that. He doesn't deserve bantha shit. He almost got you killed today.
"You have anything warm in your pack?" he asks, and the voice that comes out of him sounds like a stranger's.
You gesture to the knitted sweater you're currently wearing. "This is all I have." You sound surprisingly chipper, like you're not even bothered by your current predicament, like you're commenting on the weather or- "Hey. You okay?"
The horrible nauseous feeling falters for a moment as Tai realizes you're watching him. He clears his throat, sits up a little straighter, and musters up as much of a smile as he can. "Yeah. I'm alright, s-... I'm alright." He wanted to call you sweetheart, but the word tastes bitter in his mouth. He's tainted it, like he's done to everything else he touches.
"No, you're not."
You've always had this uncanny ability of seeing through him and catching onto the shattered pieces of him he leaves lying around, picking up his trail until it leads you back to him. It was stupid to think you wouldn't pick up on it this time.
"It's fine."
Your entire face drops into a frown. "Tai."
He spots Cody out of the corner of his eye and has to bite his tongue to keep from snapping at you. Not in front of the Commander. Maker, this is the worst he's felt in months, maybe even years. It's one thing to be harassed, he's been harassed by those damn TKs since the Empire came to power, it's nothing new, but it's another thing entirely to be harassed and embarrassed in front of you. Treated like the cannon fodder he's always been and for you to see it. And then for the Commander to have to smuggle him out of there, to realize that Tai's always been a coward in hiding, desperately clawing out a home for himself in the leftovers the galaxy has thrown at him. To see him holed up in a shitty apartment with a civvie. It goes against everything that the GAR trained them to be.
It's just another reminder that he's a failure.
When you press him again, he takes a moment, takes a deep breath before looking you head on. Properly. Finally. "Not now. Please."
There's something in your eyes he can't place. He's seen you scared before, confused, angry, disappointed, but this is different. It's simultaneously all of them and none at the same time. You seem to swallow your own thoughts before speaking again. "I'm here for you. You know that."
He nods. Of course he knows. He's never been more grateful for anything in his entire life.
"Don't shut me out." He bristles a bit when you reach for his hand and he can see how much it hurts you. It's carved into your face in an instant. "Please don't."
The transport shudders around you both and Tai looks to Cody. It's not a conscious thought, but it's burned into his very soul to defer to his commanding officer. Cody grunts as he pushes himself to stand, checking the chrono on his arm and pursing his lips as he thinks.
"Looks like we're arriving a bit early."
"Think it means anything, sir?" He tries not to think about the strange look you fix him with.
Cody huffs. He rests a hand on his blaster. "Guess we'll find out."
Tumblr media
Tatooine is a fucking wasteland. You've never heard or known much about it, other than it being under the control of the Hutts and a breeding ground for spice runners and addicts. That and the slavery. But you hadn't been expecting sand.
There's so much of it. Everywhere you look, sand. Yellow and burning hot and rough on your skin. It's already blowing into your eyes within 10 paces of exiting the transport. The heat is even worse. You first caught a glimpse of two suns before Cody lead you out of the docking bay and your view of the sky was cut off. No wonder it's kriffing hot.
Now you're walking the streets, blending in amongst travelers and tradespeople and speeders. You've only ever seen pictures of banthas before. You never realized they were so humongous. And there are less humanoids here than you're used to on Daiyu. Droids, Jawas, and a dozen other species you can't even name are meandering in and out of cantinas, marketplaces, hopping in and out of speeders.
It's a lot. All of this is a lot. Just a few hours ago, you and Tai were out on a date. You were planning on a romantic night in after dinner, maybe even calling off work just to steal an extra few moments with him. Now you're a fugitive. Your face was plastered all over the city before you left. Yours and Tai's.
He's been off all night. Day now, technically. Not that you blame him, of course, because he did get harassed and assaulted by stormtroopers. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that he's upset about it and you wouldn't be surprised if it had triggered some of his trauma from the war. You want to help him, remind him that everything's gonna be okay (even though you're not entirely sure it will be), but he's distant. Shying away from your touch, avoiding your eyes, barely speaking a word to you unless necessary.
Does he blame you?
Your entire body goes cold, double suns be damned. Of course he does. If you hadn't punched that trooper, none of this would have happened.
"In here," Cody gruffs and it snaps you out of your head, "quick."
It's a house of some kind. You've never seen anything quite like it, not on your home planet and certainly not on Daiyu. The roof is domed and the walls are thick, made out of some kind of plaster maybe or brick, but the interior is cool. The house looks empty with hardly any signs of life beyond the barest of furnishings.
Cody's planted himself by the door, one hand on his blaster and the other braced on the wall. He's practically bursting with soldier energy, the kind you've only ever seen glimpses of in Tai. You're seeing a lot more of it now. You see it in the ridge of his shoulders, the light behind his eyes, not quite right, not quite him, the firm set of his jaw. You've never seen him so alert before. You've also never seen him hold a weapon, but the borrowed blaster Cody gave him lends him a certain aura that's hard to figure out.
"I don't think we were followed," Cody says a few minutes later and you finally feel like you can breathe. He untucks the flap of his poncho so that it covers his blaster again, then steps a little further into the house. "We'll stay here tonight, make for Mos Espa tomorrow morning."
Tai nods and moves to the dining table where he shucks off his pack and his coat. His movements are quick and precise. He falls into the role of a soldier easily. He doesn't look at you and he doesn't ask questions.
But you have a lot of questions. You have so many questions that your brain hurts.
"What's in Mos Espa?"
Cody looks at you from under his lashes. He looks so much like Tai that it's uncanny, he even moves with that same soldier gait, but he doesn't look at you like Tai does. You look at him and you see a stranger. "Another spaceport. It's too dangerous to leave from this one, they'll be looking for us there."
"Wait." Your head starts spinning. "We're leaving again?"
He shakes his head. "Not quite. Tatooine's remote, off the grid, the Empire isn't too focused on this place, but on the off chance that they followed us here, it's best to keep moving so they can't find us." His focus shifts to Tai then. They start talking logistics, strategies, transportation and timing, but it's all white noise to you.
You flitter in and out of total awareness as your body begins to move on autopilot. You're sweating, so you take off your sweater. Best to fold it so it doesn't get wrinkled. You're thirsty, so you meander in the direction of the kitchen, start poking around for glasses and a faucet. While you're in here, you might as well see what food there is. You're not hungry at the moment and you're not even sure if you can stomach food right now, but you and the two soldiers in the other room will need something soon to keep up your strength.
Right, the two soldiers. The two strangers you're holed up with. The man you love and the man who wears his face, shares his body and voice. You've always known that Tai's a clone, after all he wears clone armor, he's a clone wars veteran, but it never really occurred to you just what being a clone meant. Now you're faced with the reality of it.
Tai's still Tai, but Cody looks so much like him. If you close your eyes, their voices blend together until you can't tell them apart. They're the same height, tall and broad and a little thick in the middle, but you've always liked that about your weary old veteran. The same dusting of black and gray hair on their arms, probably the same on Cody's chest as it is on Tai's. Cody keeps his face clean shaven, though, doesn't even let a hint of stubble grow in. His hair is longer and is nicely groomed, but you can see some tighter coils poking through the gel. Kind of like Tai's hair before he cut it.
The biggest difference is, ironically enough, their faces. Cody has a massive scar on one side of his face. You wonder how he got it. The only facial scars Tai has are the one on his chin - from a blast during his first battle - and another on his neck where he nicked himself shaving. But they both have the same heaviness in their eyes. You recognize it from late nights soothing trauma-induced nightmares.
"Hey."
You aren't sure which of them is speaking to you at first. You're not sure you like it. But you hum in response and turn to acknowledge him.
"You alright?"
A scruffy goatee and weary eyes. You know this clone. You think you do, you hope you do.
It takes you a minute to respond. Your mind feels far away. "Mm. Yeah, I'm okay."
Tai lifts a brow and it's the most familiar thing you've seen him do in forever. "You look tired, my love."
Something warm curls around your heart, gentle and strong enough to encourage a prickling along your waterline. You didn't realize until now just how much you missed him, how much you missed the two of you. You look up into those big brown eyes, a shade lighter than kaf and a shade darker than the earthen floor of this little house, and you immediately have to look away when yours start watering.
"I am," you mumble.
"Go get some sleep. You've had a long day."
What about you? you want to ask. Won't you come to bed with me? But you know deep in your gut that he won't go with you. He's punishing himself. He's an idiot to think you can't see through him, but you won't push him on it, not in front of Cody, not right now. You're honestly too mentally exhausted to even try.
You still cry when you tuck yourself into the tiny cot at the back of the house. There's a couple doors between you and the men, and you're quiet, so they won't hear you. All you know for sure is that you're more lost than you've ever been and you're terrified you're losing him, too.
Tumblr media
"There's not too many of us left now."
Tai runs his palm across his face. "I thought I might be the last one." It hurts to say it out loud, to finally vocalize this fear that's been eating away at him for Maker knows how long.
The Commander makes a face akin to a smile, but there's no humor behind it. "Not yet, you're not. The Empire couldn't get rid of all of us."
No, but they certainly tried. It's an unspoken understanding that hangs in the air for a while. Tai suddenly wishes he had a glass of spotchka. He wishes a lot of things.
"So." Cody shifts forward in his seat so his elbows are resting on his knees, chin in against his hands. "How'd you meet her?"
Dammit. This is the kind of questioning he was really hoping to avoid. There's nothing for Cody to find but shame and disappointment. He could try to lie, of course, and he considers it for a moment, but he's always been shit at lying. A lot of the boys in the 501st were shit liars. Now he's the last of them and he fucking wishes he wasn't.
"It's a long story," he tries.
"We have all night." Cody smiles a bit more genuinely this time, but it drifts soon after when he senses his brother's discomfort. "You don't have to tell me, vod. But she's... she's nice."
You are. And he hangs his head in shame because look at what he's done to you.
"She's the best thing that's ever happened to me." It comes out unbidden, but he doesn't regret saying it. "Took me in when I had nothing." For a moment, he's back on Daiyu, gazing up at you, awed, confused, mortified because you took pity on him, saw him through all the filth and neon-lit spice fog. "I sure paid her back for it, didn't I?" he scoffs.
The wind howls outside, tossing sand against the walls of this new little hovel on another backwater planet, and Cody watches him for a moment in the dimly lit dining room.
"What happened out there, vod?"
Fuck, what didn't happen?
Tai's entire throat constricts when he finally finds the words. "I failed. I failed her, Commander, just like I failed our vode, like I failed Rex." He squeezes his eyes shut against the tears that are suddenly threatening to wash him away. He can't quite breathe. His fist smacks hard into his thigh as he twists his face away. "And now I've put her in danger. We were supposed to protect civilians, we were supposed to protect the Republic, and I can't do either."
Good soldiers follow orders. He jolts out of his chair, shaking. When will it stop, that voice in his head? When will it stop haunting him? Master Skywalker. No. There are too many of them. When will he be free of the nightmares? What are we going to do? And the padawan still falls at Skywalker's hands, and Tai is still covered in blood, and he's still a failure.
He starts when Cody rests a hand on his shoulder. He wants to fight it, he wants to hit something, he wants to scream and cry and beg for death because he knows he deserves nothing less. He betrayed the Jedi and to this day he still doesn't know why. He put you in danger, almost let those TKs get their hands on you, almost let you get shot, and still you gave up everything for him.
Cody holds him and Tai cries, and nothing is right anymore.
"We all have to live with the choices we made, the things we did during the war, and after it. But we were good men. We still are."
A question starts to burn in the back of his esophagus, bitter and painful as bile. "Did you kill them, too?"
The silence he's met with solidifies a lot of things for him - he's not alone in his shame or his grief, if the great Commander Cody fell to the nightmares and the whispers, then perhaps there was never any hope for a trooper like him, he has to let you go. That one stings the most because he's only just found you. He's never known love like this in all his life, never fathomed a kindness like yours before. You gave him hope when there was nothing left to hope for. He knows it's the right thing to do, though. You'll never be safe with him around.
Killer. Murderer.
There's something inside him that isn't quite right. It came out last night when the TKs rounded on you, cornered you, promised to show you a 'good time'. He saw red, felt his blood boil, felt the entire universe melt away until it was just his fist and the back of that trooper's head and he was going to smash it in for even daring to look your way, to try and scare you into submission. It was there that night you saw his nightmares for the first time, when he swore you were drenched in Jedi blood and he wanted to crush your head in his hands just to prove how utterly unlovable he was.
"Can you get her somewhere safe?"
Cody blinks at him. A sliver of eternity passes before he seems to understand. "Vod..."
"I can't stay with her." Memories start flashing across his mind's eye, unbidden and beautiful - the first time he called you sweetheart, he thinks it was the night he told you about his job, the night out at that bar and the kiss it wrought the next day, the first time he told you he loved you, the first time he touched you, the mug you bought him for late night teas and early morning kafs. "She deserves better, better than an old man like me can give her."
"Does she know that?"
Tai actually laughs. "She'd slap me for saying it. But it's true. I'll only get her killed in the end."
"Maybe," Cody muses. "Maybe you're not thinking clearly." He doesn't seem bothered by the flashing in his brother's eyes when they round on him. "Not all of us were as lucky as you, vod. Not all of us found someone willing to walk through the fire with us."
The wind howls again in the moments between Cody's wisdom and Tai's panic.
"For our brothers who lost the fight, the brothers that never found what you did." A hand rests over Tai's heart. "Don't push her away."
Tumblr media
It's funny, really, how the littlest, simplest thing can change one's mind, how a single object can be the difference between one destiny and another.
He shucks your pack and his over his shoulders and shuffles as quietly as he can into the back room. You're snoring and sleeping pretty heavily by the sound of it, so you hopefully wont be disturbed when he slides in beside you.
He's still undecided about you, although Cody's advice is rattling around in his brain. He'll have to decide before you wake up. But then your pack tips over as he's taking off his boots and something goes clank inside. He frowns, leans down to pick it up, and just misses catching the metallic object half-wrapped in one of your blouses before it smacks on the floor.
Your breathing hitches, Tai swears his heart almost stops, and then you settle back into a steady rhythm. He unwraps the blouse. And there's his mug, the one you saw in a street vendor's shop. It's plain metal, all shiny and silver, but it's shaped vaguely like a lothcat. The handle has a pattern etched into it reminiscent of the ones many tookas sport on their tails.
"It reminded me of you," you'd explained. "Because a lothcat always seemed to have my tongue when we first started talking." Then you'd pecked him on the cheek and bowed your head all flustered and shy.
He's a fool. A damn fool. And he's still got one boot on when he twists and throws his arm over you, drags you into him so he can bury his face in your neck. You wake up fully this time and start squirming under him.
"Wha...? Mnh, Tai?" Your voice is drowsy and rough.
"I love you," he grunts against your skin. He's absolutely crying now. "I love you, sweetheart." He can't keep his hands off you, can't stop kissing every inch of you that he can reach. He has to commit you to memory so that the next time he gets an idiotic idea in his head, he can conjure up this moment and smack the stupid out of himself. "My sweet, wonderful, beautiful girl." Each word is punctuated with a wet kiss.
You have no clue what's going on and you're probably more asleep than awake, but he doesn't care. He'll shower you in love again the moment you wake up. He's never letting you out of his sight again, never letting himself doubt you, never getting stuck inside his own head ever again.

From Hell to Home to Back Again
Summary: At the talent show, Chrissy Cunningham is so hungry that she nearly collapses. When she's found by Hopper, her parents ended up losing custody of her. She ends up being placed in the care of the Hendersons, and she finally finds the family she so desperately needed. She also ends up falling in love. What other changes are made in this alternate universe?
A/N: We're entering the FOI timeline now.
@emen-98 @@1lostsoul0fishbowl @@vulpixsworld
Prologue . . . Chapter Seven
Chapter Eight
It was now officially springtime, and things were going great for her. It feels like she's even closer to Eddie, and hopefully, he's getting the message that she would never hurt him like almost everyone in this town does, including his dad. Chrissy was now officially handling both cheerleading and softball again. She doesn't mind the stares whenever she changes out of her uniforms. She's gotten used to the scars on her body. . .well, somewhat. They still are a little jarring. Chrissy had just pulled on her clothes after cheerleading practice when Heather walked up to her. Oh, she thought she had been alone in the locker room.
"Chrissy?" Heather asked.
"Hey, Heather," Chrissy said.
"I know we haven't talked a lot lately. I know we've both been a little busy," Heather said. "How are you?"
"I'm good," Chrissy grinned. "Really good."
"That's - That's good," Heather said.
"You look like you want to say something," Chrissy said.
"I just - I know you've been hanging out with Eddie Munson lately," Heather said and paused. "I didn't want to say anything because of the whole Jason Carver incident, but I hope you're being careful. I know how this sounds with me being your ex and all, but I'm also your friend."
"I am, Eddie's a really great guy. He's not really ready for a relationship right now, but to be honest, I don't think I am either," Chrissy said. "I like how it is now, though. We're friends, and he makes me feel better whenever I have a bad day. I like the way he smiles and the way he hides behind his hair. He's a really good friend."
"Well, I'm glad, and I suppose I shouldn't listen to the rumors about him. Like he's a Satanist, or that he sacrifices people on an alter of fire, or that he believes in aliens," Heather said.
"Oh, no, that last part is true. He's had several rants about it. He thinks it's arrogant to believe that we're alone in the universe. Although, even though he believes in them he's said on many occasions that he would still freak the fuck out if he ever met one," Chrissy said.
"He's kind of weird," Heather said.
"I know," Chrissy grinned. "That's what I like about him."
"I guess if you're happy, then I guess I have nothing to worry about. . .but if he does hurt you, then I'm going to reign hellfire down upon him," Heather said. "Get it?"
"Heather!" Chrissy laughed.
Chrissy left Heather and went to meet Eddie at the classroom where he was holding Hellfire today. Eddie was talking with Gareth in the hallway when she came upon them. Gareth looked pretty upset, more so than usual. Chrissy didn't mean to eavesdrop, but it just sort of happened. Apparently, Gareth was upset that his character got killed, and he thought that meant he was out of Hellfire. Eddie was in the middle of reassuring him. Chrissy smiled as Gareth looked at him, hopefully.
"You're sure, right?" Gareth asked. "I can come back."
"As long as you wanna be in Hellfire, you can be in Hellfire," Eddie said.
Eddie grinned as Gareth scurried off towards the school's entrance.
"Wow, and I left my kleenex at home," Ronnie said, and Eddie shoulder checked her. "Careful, Stan would kill me if I dropped this thing."
Ronnie kept Stan's trapper keeper full of D&D stuff at her place since his mom believed that Hellfire was nothing more than satanic crap hellbent on brainwashing her son. So, he has to lie and hide the things that make him happy.
"I think it's sweet," Chrissy said.
"You think everything that Eddie does is sweet. You're so blinded, Henderson," Ronnie laughed as she batted her eyelashes at her.
"Fuck off," Chrissy laughed. "He gets really obnoxious when he's right about something."
"That's true. No one likes that," Ronnie giggled.
"Oh, God, I thought my room was messy, but Eddie's room is off the charts, and he pretty much treats his van like a trash can," Chrissy said.
"I keep telling him it doesn't have to be perfect, but at least clean it up a little. My God, man," Ronnie said.
"And there's this thing he does with his eye lids - ," Chrissy said.
"Freaks me out!" Ronnie exclaimed.
"And when he eats - "
"Okay! Eddie doesn't like this!" He yelled.
He glared at the both of them as they laughed at him.
"Can I get a ride?" Ronnie asked.
"This is the last time," Eddie said, narrowing his eyes at her. "Even if you just listed my greatest failures."
"Oh, we haven't even gotten to the worst parts, Munson," Ronnie said. "Chrissy, are you riding with us this evening?"
"Yeah, definitely," Chrissy said.
"As the owner of the vehicle, shouldn't it be me who asks her?" Eddie asked. "Chrissy, are you riding with us this evening?"
"Yes," Chrissy giggled.
"I don't know why I'm letting either of you ride with me considering you insulted me," Eddie sniffed in mock offense.
"Don't worry, Eddie, despite all your faults, I think that you're very pretty," Chrissy laughed.
"Really?" Eddie smirked and Chrissy nodded.
"I, however, do not. You're about as ugly as the cat that wanders around Forest Hills," Ronnie said.
"I keep telling you it's a opossum, Ecker! Get your eyes checked!" Eddie exclaimed. "Chrissy, are you coming tonight? We couldn't play last night, but we're definitely playing tonight."
"I never miss a show. . .except that one time, but it was Dustin's fault," Chrissy said and paused, looking at Ronnie. "Technically, aren't you calling yourself ugly when you call him ugly?"
"Ugh, we do not look that much a like," Ronnie rolled her eyes.
"When you were younger, you managed to cover for him on a test when you pretended to be him, and it worked," Chrissy narrowed her eyes at her as they climbed into the van.
"Okay, by that logic, you should think that I'm pretty too," Ronnie said rolling her eyes.
"I do!" Chrissy grinned. "I just wouldn't date you for several reasons, and mostly because someone I know thinks you're pretty too. . . Have I not mentioned that I like men and women?"
"No!" Eddie and Ronnie exclaimed.
"Oh, well, I do," Chrissy shrugged.
"Thanks for telling us," Eddie said softly.
"I trust you guys," Chrissy said.
"Wait. . .who thinks I'm pretty?" Ronnie asked.
"It's not my place to say," Chrissy replied. "Let's go. It's my turn to make dinner tonight. Do either one of you want to join us?"
"Nah, Granny would be livid if I didn't warn her days in advance," Ronnie said. "But I'm sure Eddie wouldn't mind."
"Stop accepting invitations on my behalf, Ecker," Eddie sighed. "Unfortunately, as much as I would love to, I need to get to the Hideout early if I want to win Bev's favor."
"Oh, well, my mom's been dying to meet you," Chrissy said. "Maybe you can come over some other time."
"Uh, isn't that a little soon?" Eddie asked nervously.
"You're not her boyfriend, which is ridiculous because you two are practically dat - " Ronnie started to say.
"ANYWAY, your mom does know who I am, right?" Eddie asked.
"Yeah, I told her all about you. I also told my cat about you," Chrissy said.
"You told your cat about me?" Eddie asked.
"I talk to my cat about you every night," Chrissy said.
"Okay, can we move on from this conversation? I'm totally picturing something else, and it isn't a pretty picture," Ronnie said as she put her feet up on Eddie's dashboard.
"Seriously?" Eddie asked.
"What? I don't want to put my feet on Stan's thingie," Ronnie said. "It's not my fault your van is so small."
"My van isn't the problem. It's your freakish legs of yours," Eddie replied.
"Let me tell you a secret about these freakish legs of mine," Ronnie said as she kept her feet exactly where she out them. "In four months? They are going to be walking into their new apartment in New. York. City."
Eddie nearly slammed on the brakes.
"No."
"Yep."
"You got the scholarship?"
"NYU class of '88, baby. Full ride," Ronnie said.
This time, Eddie slammed on the brakes and fishtailed the vehicle off to the side of the ride. Chrissy grinned as she sat back and let the two best friends have their moment.
"You know, I'm happy for you, right?" Eddie asked.
"I know," Ronnie said.
"I'm happy for you, too!" Chrissy blurted out. "Sorry, couldn't keep it in."
Eddie and Ronnie laughed just as a tapping sound came on the window. Officer Moore was looking into Eddie's window. He rolled it down with a sigh.
"Again?" Ronnie asked. "I thought we were done with that guy."
"Always," Eddie muttered. "Officer Moore, how can I help you on this fine spring afternoon?"
"I thought that was you, Munson," Moore said. "How many times do we have to have this conversation?"
"That's a question that you'll have to ask yourself, Officer. You're the one always filling up my dance card."
"That was some erratic driving - ," Moore said.
"He was avoiding a bird, sir," Chrissy said brightly as she popped her head in between the seats. "He flew right in front of his window."
"Miss Henderson, I didn't see you," Moore frowned.
"I'm guessing Officer Powell isn't driving with you today," Chrissy said.
"He's out sick," Moore frowned.
"Well, since Eddie doesn't have any priors, I think you can let him off with a warning, especially considering all of the illegal stops you made because of the vendetta you have against his father. I certainly would hate to tell Hopper that you're out for revenge against a young man who did nothing to hurt you," Chrissy said.
"Drive safely, and have a nice day," Moore frowned as he walked off.
"I thought I was the one who wanted to be a lawyer," Ronnie said. "You'd make a good one."
"I don't about being a lawyer, but I thought about being a social worker or a guidance counselor who's also a cheerleading coach," Chrissy said.
"You'd be good at those," Eddie replied and Ronnie nodded in agreement.
After dropping Ronnie off, Eddie drove Chrissy home. He pulled in front of her place and parked it for a moment.
"Are the others coming?" Eddie asked.
"Steve is dropping me off, but then he's going on a date with Nancy. They missed their last date night because Nancy got sick. Jonathan is expecting a phone call, and Robin is recovering from the same sickness Nancy got. She's currently in bed and cursing Nancy's name," Chrissy said.
"So, just you," Eddie smiled.
"Just me," she replied, smiling back at him.
"You don't have to keep saving me, you know," Eddie said.
"I know, I want to," Chrissy said. "You're not alone in this world, Eddie. I just want to make sure you know that."
"I know," Eddie said softly, and Chrissy kissed his cheek.
"See you tonight," Chrissy said.
"Looking forward to it," Eddie said.
Chrissy practically rushed through dinner, eager as always to see Eddie play. As per usual, Dustin pouted about not being able to go. She quickly said goodbye to her mother and brother before running out to Steve’s car. They were already late.
"Hey, you look nice tonight," Steve grinned as she got into the back seat.
"I'm going to tell him after the show," Chrissy said, beaming.
"Finally!" Steve exclaimed.
"What made you change your mind? I thought you were going to wait?" Nancy asked.
"I don't know, it just clicked while I was cooking," Chrissy said. "I didn't want to wait anymore."
"I hope it goes well," Nancy said.
"Me too," Chrissy grinned.
She said goodbye to them and quickly jumped out of the car, scurring inside and ignoring the dark clouds overhead. Chrissy cursed when she realized that Corroded Coffin was already playing. She really was late. Suddenly, she realized that this wasn't a cover song. This was "Fire Shroud," their original song. It was the song that Eddie said wasn't ready yet whenever she asked. He hadn't noticed that she had even come in yet. No, he was fully focused on the only other person at the bar. It was a young woman, not much older than they are, and she was really pretty too. Her hair was wildly curly, and Chrissy could barely make out the smattering of freckles on her face as she looked at Eddie. Eddie was looking back at her, enjoying the way her boot clad ankles tapped along to the music. Nothing could break their gaze, Eddie was euphoric at the sight of the other woman, and it felt like someone had punched Chrissy in the stomach. Chrissy plopped down in the darkened corner of the bar, closet to the door she just walked into. She watched as Bev eventually pulled the plug.
Eddie and his band started to clean up when she watched Ronnie grab his arm. She was pleading with Eddie, and she watched her mouth Chrissy's name to Eddie. Chrissy felt another blow to her stomach as Eddie laughed Ronnie off and shook his head at her. Once they put their instruments away, Chrissy watched as Eddie started talking to the girl at the bar. The way he talked to her and leaned closer to her. . .yeah, he was definitely interested in her. He had played the song for her, the same song he never would have played for Chrissy. She had read this all wrong. Eddie didn't like her. He was just being nice. She wasn't sure how long she sat there staring at them, but finally, she couldn't torture herself anymore. Chrissy walked out of the bar, leaning against the brick wall to wait for Steve. Her leg was shaking. God, she was so stupid. It took her a minute to realize that she was crying. The sound of thunder startled her.
"Come on, are you serious? Not now! That would be so fucking cliche!" Chrissy yelled.
Of course, the weather didn't listen to her. The rain came down in buckets, immediately soaking her. Chrissy let out a frustrated yell as more thunder and lightning followed. She was determined not to go back in even though she knew that standing out here was going to make her sick, but she didn't want to go back in there and face Eddie. She stood in the pouring rain and waited. She waited until the rain finally stopped, and Steve's car finally pulled up. She shivered, her entire body soaking wet as she slid in the back seats of his car.
"Sorry about your seats," Chrissy muttered.
"Jeeze, you could have waited inside," Steve said.
"Didn't want to," she replied.
"Are you okay?" Nancy asked.
"I'm fine," Chrissy's bottom lip trembled. "Can we just go, please?"
"It didn't go well?" Steve asked softly.
Chrissy burst into tears again. Nancy quickly climbed into the back seat and wrapped her arms around her.
"Drive, Steve," Nancy said.
Steve drove off, and Chrissy sobbed into her shoulder. With her arm still around Chrissy, they walked into her house.
"Oh, honey, what happened?!" Claudia asked.
"I just got caught in the rain is all," Chrissy said. "I'm fine."
"Oh, let's get you out of those wet clothes," Claudia cooed.
"Do you mind if I spend the night, Mrs. Henderson?" Nancy asked.
"If it's alright with your mom, honey. It's more than okay with me," Claudia said and took her daughter to her room.
Chrissy let her mother take care of her and then bundled herself up in her blankets. Claudia left with promises of hot chocolate. Nancy was in the other room, and Steve left after kissing her goodnight while also saying goodbye to the Hendersons. He jokingly offered to beat Eddie up for her, but Chrissy knew that even he knew she would never want that. She stared at the picture on her dresser for a moment before getting up off the bed, the blanket wrapped tightly around her. Now, whenever she looked at it, she thought of Eddie locking eyes with that woman. Furious, Chrissy picked up the picture and put it in her bottom drawer before plopping down on the bed. Nancy came back in and laid down beside her.
"Called my mom," Nancy said. "She said it was okay. Did you want to talk about it?"
"I don't know," Chrissy said softly before launching into telling Nancy everything that happened.
"I'm sorry, Chrissy, but I hope whoever this girl is, that she's just an obstacle. We've all seen the way he looks at you, and I really hope that girl is nothing more than a case of Eddie being starstruck at the prospect of having another fan of his music," Nancy said. "It would be crazy to be anything else."
"Fire Shroud, Nance, he played Fire Shroud for her," Chrissy said with a groan. "It's just dumb. It's just a dumb crush on a boy. . .except that Eddie Munson isn't just some boy. Gah!"
"I don't think this is just a crush, Chrissy. I think you're in love with him," Nancy said.
"No! Nope! Absolutely not," Chrissy said and sighed. "I'll get over it if I have to. I can't be mad over Eddie, not returning my feelings. I can't force him to like me. He does seem like he wants to be my friend, so I can deal with having him be a part of my life even if it's not in the way that I want."
"Chrissy. . ." Nancy started to say.
Nancy was interrupted by Claudia coming in the mugs of hot chocolate. They both smiled gratefully at her. Chrissy got up and hugged her mother.
"Thanks, mommy," Chrissy said.
"You're welcome, sweetheart. You have your girl talk, and I'll handle Dustin. He's being very nosy," Claudia said.
"What else is new?" Chrissy asked, and Claudia laughed as she left. "Alright, enough about Eddie. Tell me all about your date with Steve."
"Are you sure?" Nancy asked.
Chrissy rolled her eyes as she sat on the bed, sipping her hot chocolate.
"I'm a big girl, Nance. It's going to suck for a while, but I can handle it," Chrissy said. "Especially if I have my wonderful best friends to help me through it. Now, tell me about Steve."
Nancy smiled as she told her all about the date. Chrissy's smile grew as they chatted about Steve and drank their hot chocolate. Nancy's joy was infectious, and for a moment, Chrissy forgot about her problem. She fell asleep that night, curled up against Nancy, determined to face the next day as head strong as her friend. Unfortunately, the next morning, she woke up as sick as a dog. Claudia ended up having to practically push Nancy out of the door the next morning when Steve showed up. Claudia called into work and stayed with Chrissy, nursing her back to health. When Eddie called around lunchtime to check on her, Chrissy couldn't help but let hope fill her heart. Until the words came out of his mouth, she wasn't going to give up on him. When Friday rolled around, Chrissy found herself feeling better, and with a skip in her step, she strolled into school. Eddie was waiting for her by her locker. Ronnie was with him, too.
"Hey, Henderson, glad you're feeling better," Eddie said, flashing her his dimples. "School is a lot less brighter without you."
"Thanks, Eddie," Chrissy said.
"I think Ronnie missed you, too," Eddie grinned. "I think she's starting to like you more than she likes me."
"Oh, I definitely like her more than you," Ronnie said.
"Ouch," Eddie said, and Chrissy laughed.
"Sorry, I missed your show," Chrissy said.
"Oh, you weren't there?" Eddie asked, and Chrissy narrowed her eyes at him.
"I was sick," she reminded him.
"Oh, right," Eddie said, and he shoved his hands in his pockets, looking guilty for a moment. "Well, you didn't miss much except for Bev pulling the plug."
"Oh, so nothing happened?" Chrissy asked.
"Why would it?" Eddie scoffed, but he couldn't quite meet her eyes. "You know, I promised Gareth that I would help him with something. I'm glad you're back, Chrissy."
Chrissy watched him walk away and confused about why he lied to her. Suddenly, she felt Ronnie touch her arm.
"You were there. Why didn't you tell Eddie?" Ronnie asked.
"You saw them. You know why," Chrissy said.
"She's just some chick that he met in a bar. She doesn't mean anything to him as much as you do," Ronnie said.
"He played her Fire Shroud," Chrissy said. "To her. . . Why didn't Eddie tell me that?"
"Why didn't you tell him that you were there?" Ronnie asked again.
"I was going to tell him how I felt," Chrissy muttered.
"And then you saw him with her," Ronnie realized. "Look, I love my best friend, but I'm siding with you if he messes this up. He does have feelings for you, but he's being a cowardly little shit and he's running away. I feel for the girl, but he's clearly using her to do that whether he realizes it or not. I don't think he went home with her or did anything with her. It was just one moment in a bar. She drew his attention for one night, but you have it every day since he fell for you on that cold, icey day, and that icicle nearly impaled you."
"I'm trying not to get my hopes up here," Chrissy sniffled.
"Well, if he does anything stupid, just know that I'm here for you, too," Ronnie said.
"Thanks, Ronnie," Chrissy said.
Chrissy realized suddenly that the last few months had been all about Eddie. Maybe she needed to pull back a little, give him a chance to miss her. Plus, she really didn't want her entire world to revolve around him. Suddenly, she also realized that during the last few months of getting closer to Eddie, she had neglected her cheerleader and softball friends. Well, that wouldn't do. Chrissy desperately needed to come up for air. She needed to breathe.

Error!Sans goes to therapy
Today is a very special day! I want to wish a grand and happy birthday to my friend @tehrogueva! I may be unable to draw, but I wanted to write something for you! I hope you have a wonderful day! Error!Sans belongs to LoverOfPiggies Ink!Sans belongs to Comyet Therapist!Sans belongs to TehRogueVA Enjoy!
~o0o~
"I-I-I swear Ink, I will murder y-y-you!"
"It'll be good for you!" Ink laughed as he shoved Error into the office. "It's helped me! Trust me, you'll like it, because it's all about you!"
Error scowled, slapping Ink's hands when he touched him. However, he didn't have the energy to resist Ink's nagging about the subject.
Therapy was all Ink had talked about for the past three weeks. He went on and on about fixing his flaws because he learned where they originated. Error didn't buy it. How can one possibly fix themselves when they were mistakes in the first place? Such anomalies shouldn't ever exist and need to be destroyed. Why should he care about them getting better if he would kill them anyway?
He was hit with a sense of nostalgia as he entered the room. A thick smell of vanilla entered his nose as the air around him stuck to his skin. It was very humid, and Error already hated it.
"He'll be in shortly!" Ink closed the door behind him. "I'll introduce you two!"
"I don't need your company or your help, squid," Error snapped, turning his head around. He paused for a second, surprised the glitch stutter in his voice had stopped when he entered the room.
"Hey, you won't even know I'm here, haha! I'll leave when he starts with ya!"
Error eyed Ink as the painter sat on a brown chair nearby, staring at the billboard. Error followed his gaze. There were a lot of red strings tied from peg to peg on different pictures on the billboard as if it represented a pattern or a lifestyle. There was a small desk below the billboard. It had a fire-lit candle to the right and a clipboard to the left. Once Error noticed the fire from the candle, he noticed that every part of the room was lit, and no shadows were cast.
Error sat down on a large sofa, sinking into it. He immediately felt at peace as he looked up. A fan was turning above him. Other than that, the tan walls were barren. The door was a darker brown than the walls, but everything felt so empty.
And Error loved it.
Besides Ink occasionally shifting, there was no sound. It reminded Error of his home in the Anti-Void. The room was lit with a soft yellow light, and it was cold. The vanilla smell didn't fade away.
Error tried to hide the fact he thoroughly enjoyed this room. "I don't have all day," he snapped at Ink. "Where is this therapist?"
"He's coming," Ink looked over anxiously. "I forgot to tell him I was bringing you, so maybe he's getting new papers for you!" Ink bobbed his head as if a song was playing in his head. He pulled out one of his notebooks and started to draw, his rainbow tongue sticking out as he colored in a previous picture.
Error scoffed to himself. Despite how much he hated the painter, there was always something captivating about him. He was goofy and unpredictable, along with annoying and heartless. He was fun to watch, at least.
They were enemies, they hated each other. Granted, Error hated everyone, and he had no intention to change that. But why did Ink come out of his way not to fight him but to bring him to this place? Especially after he...
Error thought back to when he destroyed the multiverse, and it made him question Ink even more. Even though the creators started to create different AUs again, most alternate universes were gone. X!Gaster hadn't been seen since. Yet, Ink didn't hold it against him, as if he'd forgiven him.
Error hated that. He didn't understand why Ink was suddenly so friendly to him. Ink got over his pain so quickly; something Error was never able to do, and he was jealous because of it. It's not fair...
The brown door opened, and a sweet skeleton stepped inside. His glasses hung from his non-existent ears. He wore an off-white cardigan and a green shirt. He wore a soft smile on his face before he locked eyes with Error. Error didn't bother to observe the rest of his appearance. Confusion filled the therapist's gaze, and Error grimaced. Significant, another stupid anomaly.
"Doc!" Ink shot up from his chair, walking up and hugging the therapist tightly.
Doc looked perplexed before he hugged Ink back. "Ink, there you are! I didn't see you," he smiled softly, still watching Error closely. "Did you bring a friend?"
"Yes! This is Error, Error, this is Doc!" Ink let go of Doc and happily smiled at Error.
Error's gaze went past Doc's eyes as he found his soul. It was an ordinary monster soul as he expected. However, it had a tint of light blue surrounding it. Although he found it strange, he didn't think about it too much as it jolted out of fear. He smirked to himself as Doc shuddered. The therapist's fear was amusing.
"Error, it's nice to meet you!" His voice didn't betray how the therapist was feeling. He stuck out his hand. "I'm Doc Sans; I'm assuming you came to get some therapy?"
"Didn't have a choice," Error glared at Ink and ignored the handshake. "Let's get this over with."
Doc withdrew his hand and sat down on the green chair. He flipped through the clipboard and wrote a few things down. Error knew he was afraid, and rightfully so. One wrong move and the Destroyer would tear this place apart. Why should he show mercy to this pathetic excuse for a life? Was this another one of Ink's tricks? If he ended up destroying Ink's trick, maybe Ink would finally feel the same pain that he did.
"I'll be nearby if you need anything!" Ink trotted toward the door, his eyes sparkling with stars and his grin wide. "Have fun Error!"
Error rolled his eyes as the painter disappeared. He sat back down on the couch, sinking into it. At least the therapy room was nice with its flat appearance. That made him want to destroy it less.
"So, Error, I've heard a lot about you," Doc smiled sweetly as he turned to him. "But I want you to tell me about yourself."
Error scoffed, shaking his head as he slouched in the couch. "The paint freak told you about me. Typical. What did he say?"
"You tell me," Doc tilted his head. "What should he have told me about you?"
Error thought for a moment before he replied. "I am the Destroyer of the Multiverse; I am the one who makes anomalies like yourself fearful for their lives-"
"No, I don't mean your status," Doc interrupted. "I want to know you. What do you do in your free time? What do you enjoy? Your job set aside, who are you?"
...What?
Error never heard of such a question. He started to feel different about this therapy thing. Did this anomaly really want to know? Did he really care? Why would he ask such a thing? No one had even asked him what he liked to do outside of destroying things...
No one expect Ink.
Well, Ink didn't really ask, he just kind of figured it out over the years.
"I uh..." Error glitched, shaking his head. It took a moment for him to regain his composure as he felt like he would crash any moment. "Not much... I search for the Omega Timeline; I chill at home and eat chocolate and watch UnderNovela... Sometimes I go to OuterTale."
"Those are good hobbies!" Doc encouraged, writing down what Error said. "Tell me about UnderNovela and OuterTale. Why do you like them?"
Error scoffed lightly, looking down at the floor as he recalled the show. "UnderNovela is funny. So much unnecessary drama, all in the right ways... And OuterTale..." He paused. There was always something different about OuterTale, something he could never put his finger on. It reminded him of the Anti-Void, just more beautiful. It felt like home as if he had been in a similar place for most of his life that he couldn't remember. "I don't know. It feels like I've already been there thousands of times. It's so empty and dark, yet beautiful."
"How does OuterTale make you feel?"
Error glitched again. Maybe this therapy thing wasn't so bad after all. "It feels like home."
"What is home to you?"
This anomaly was really making him think. "I don't know," he snapped, losing patience. "It just... does."
Doc nodded and adjusted his glasses before scribbling on his clipboard. Error sank further into the couch, crossing his arms. How was this supposed to fix his problems again? He didn't see how this was helping. If anything, Ink just gave him another place to destroy.
"Tell me about your life," Doc broke the temporary silence. "Tell me everything that you remember."
Error started to backtrack to his first memory, waking up in the Anti-Void. He was vague about events like meeting Ink, kidnapping Swap, destroying the multiverse, etc. He pulled a few strings from his eyes and started to knit with them in his hands. He watched Doc get nervous as he played with them, but when he turned his attention back to his fingers, it felt normal to talk about what he had been through while he knitted a blue scarf.
He glitched more as he talked about the different AUs he destroyed before his big finale. He started casually until he got to the people's screams and tears. At the time, he had laughed evilly, enjoying their pain. However, it didn't help the pain that he felt himself. No matter how many people he killed and destroyed places, that pain remained. Nothing he did lessen that mental agony he had suffered from for so long. A sinking feeling rested in his chest. It engulfed him as he kept thinking back. Is this... what regret feels like?
Doc listened intently, asking clarifying questions until Error was done. "Error, do you remember anything before waking up in the Anti-Void?"
"No, I told you that," Error shook his head. "I just was here."
"There could be some hidden stuff there that has caused you to act the way you have," Doc explained. "And it might explain how you feel inside, too." He got up slowly and set his notebook down. Grabbing some red string and paper from a drawer, he flipped the billboard over and started hanging various things Error mentioned up. When he was done, he ran the red string through the various events, many leading back to the empty space, what happened before the Anti-Void.
Error watched and studied what he was doing closely. He would never admit it, but he marveled at how Doc traced his maturing behavior back to the X-Event, his respect for Ink back to Swap, his hatred for touch from Nightmare, how he woke up like an angry manbaby, and how that was caused by something he couldn't even remember.
"Unfortunately, our time is up today as I have another client coming in," Doc sighed. "But we can unpack all of this together and help you get to a place you want to be."
"And if I'm happy with how I am?" Error snapped, hiding the fact he actually wanted to come back and unpack his life.
"Are you?"
Once again, the therapist had left the destroyer speechless. He didn't like how Doc bested him with simple questions that no one had even bothered to ask him. Someone was asking Error about himself for the first time in his life, and he didn't know how to feel about it.
Doc smiled softly; he had his answer. "I'm assuming you're like Ink, and time is irrelevant to you. If you choose to come back, just let me know, and I'll make some room for you, okay?"
"Yeah, whatever," Error rolled his eyes and stood up. "Are we done here?"
Doc shuddered once more but tried to hide it. "Yeah, we are done for today."
"Good," Error threw away the scarf he was working on and walked through the door without a goodbye. What a waste of time, he thought. I could have been watching UnderNovela.
As he walked out of the office and to a place where he could travel to the Anti-Void freely, he paused, turning around. Usually, Error would immediately destroy any AU he went to. He glitched, glancing around. His eyes softened as his gaze saw Doc Sans waving at him with a warm smile.
Huh. A slight smile crossed Error's face as his anger disappeared. He stepped through his portal, having done no damage to this new alternate universe.
Maybe there's more to these... anomalies...

I Think I'm Alive For You
Tumblr media
@heartofwritiingiing reblogged my fiction I Think I Died for You and added this amazing tag...and well...this happened yeah.
NOTICE: This is going to take place in an alternate universe where Karl and Sapnap never left Quackity (for plot reasons just read)
(Also those who have requested things I am working on them I promise)
><><><><><><><><><>
"This is L'manberg. Or what's left of it." The man's voice was airy and faint. Rain drizzled down around you and he helped you to your feet.
His hand was warm and it made your blood spark in excitement. You'd been cold for so long...
"You said your name was Y/N?" The stranger kept your hand in his but you hardly minded. You met red eyes with curiosity like a flame dancing in the pools.
"What's yours?" You asked skeptically. There was a white streak in his hair...odd.
"Wilbur. Wilbur Soot." Wilbur said and you let a small smile twitch on your lips.
"Well it's nice to meet you." You said stiffly and smoothed out the thin clothes you wore. Nothing more than a plain green shirt and a blue jacket with some trousers to hide your body from the elements. It reminded you of something of a zombie, though you hardly remembered the things.
"Would you like to see the place?" Wilbur smiled at you and something flickered in his crimson eyes. Something welcoming and vague.
"Yes, yes i suppose i would." You nodded and Wilbur offered his arm. The warmth sparked your blood again and tingled throughout your body like a lightning bolt.
~~~~
Wilbur was interesting...he was a steady hand on your back as you explored the many improved technologies that had emerged in your time 'away' as he had begun to call it.
Things felt better around him, like figuring out how long you'd been gone and how you got where you were didn't matter. At least, that's what Wilbur had told you he planned to make you feel like. So far he succeeded.
"I'll never miss another sunset again." Wilbur sighed and rubbed a half gloved finger over your hand softly. You smiled and rested against his shoulder with you back. In your free hand you twirled a flower, it was dying and the dark blue of its petals reminded you of something. Someone. A memory that seemed so happy you wanted to remember it.
"Hey Wil." You said softly.
"What is it darling?" He asked airily and you could tell he had his eyes closed. A breeze passed by.
"How did you die?"
Wilbur was quiet and his hand ceased to rub against yours. The air felt dangerous and explosive. The faint smell of gunpowder wafted from Wilbur on the quiet breeze and blew off a single petal from your dying blue flower.
"I..." Wilbur stammered and your curiosity grew. Did he remember? Did he not know like you? Was it all fuzzy and blank?
"My father stabbed me. I asked him to." Wilbur didn't look at you and a distant hand came and rubbed his chest.
"Oh..." You were grim in your words and thought it better to just stay quiet.
"Do you know how you died darling?" Wilbur asked and you shook your head. He pulled you close to him, resting your head on his shoulder and his arm around you.
"I don't even remember being alive." You scoffed and curled close to Wilbur.
"Maybe it doesn't matter then." Wilbur shrugged and your brain glitched.
"Your life doesn't matter to me anymore Y/N of-"
Someone had said that to you then it went blank. Then you died.
"I think I was important to someone, and they killed me." Your brow furrowed.
"You shouldn't worry about it, you've got me now." Wilbur kissed your head and lingered there with his nose buried in your hair.
"Yeah..."
~~~~
You tried not to question anything that happened from then on. Wilbur hadn't seemed too happy about you figuring it out and something wrong twisted in your gut about that.
"I don't know what's gotten into him." You sighed and caressed the face of the blue sheep. Tommy had said it was important to someone you knew and they would've liked you to have him.
Of course this had been rather odd but the animal was quite cute, so you supposed you could take care of it for now. It had a collar and on a tag in scrawled writing was 'Friend.'
"He's gone back to Las Nevadas and told me to stay home. Wonder why." You played with the bright blue wool and earned a satisfied baa from the livestock.
"I think he likes you."
There was a face, blank and compassionate. It was familiar and something cold but longing flickered in your chest.
Friend let out an indignant baa and you resumed petting him absent minded.
"Let's go find Wilbur." You decided and hooked the leash onto the sheep's collar, leading him to the desert city of Las Nevadas.
The clouds blocked the sun over the desert and you remembered Wilbur saying something about Quackity being a liar and basically moving every scrap of sand he could to create his capitalist paradise.
"I bet you'd be real hot in that wool if it wasn’t cloudy." You smiled at Friend and tugged the sheep along. Despite what Wilbur had told you about the palace of lies Q had built in his artificial desert, you were awestruck at the infrastructure nonetheless.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
You looked over your shoulder slowly as you stared at a tower of quartz and what looked like a needle at the top. No fear ran in your blood, Wilbur had said that was partially because of how long you'd been away.
"Erm, Y/N." you narrowed your eyes at the creature. A being of green goo with glasses covered in slime and a meshed version of suspenders and a shirt. A rather haggard appearance all together really.
"Where are you from?" The blobby man asked with a dorky smile.
"I-" your brow furrowed. Where were you from?
"This is L'manburg, or what's left of it."
"L'manburg. What's left of it anyways." You said.
"Well Y/N of What's left of L'manburg, Please state your business." The slime stood straight for such an unstable appearance and you cringed. Something fearful sparked in your chest at the familiar way they talked.
"You life doesn't matter to me anymore Y/N of-"
"I'm here for Wil-" You shook away the cold, dying memeory and just about as you got half his name out.
"Y/N? What're you doing here? What's with the sheep?" Wilbur's voice came from behind the slime man and the gooey greeter was quick to vanish away in a gloop of green into the sandy ground.
"I came looking for you. Tommy gave him to me, his name's Friend apparently." You shrugged. Something passed over Wilbur's face as he looked at the sheep before he snapped back to you.
"You really need to go." He let a sly smile split his lips but the smoothness of his words did little to quell the suspicion rising in your gut.
"and why's that?" You crossed your arms, the lead attached to your wrist swinging as Friend sniffed and baaed at the ground.
"Because darling-" Wilbur's words fell short as a new voice cut through the air.
"Y/N?" This voice belonged to a man in a colorful hoodie with a swirl in the middle and shaggy brown hair with a set of oddly colored goggles sitting on top his head.
"What-?" Fog swirled in your head and Wilbur stepped back to your side, his arm wrapping around your waist comfortingly.
"Karl?" You recognized the face now. The loose freckles and curious eyes. Wilbur's hand vanished from your side and you ran into Karl's arms.
"Oh my gosh, where did you go?" His familiar embrace warmed your soul and ignited a smile on your face.
"I-I died!" You pulled away from him and took in his features. The eye bags were new and the love worn wrinkles from ages of laughing and smiling looked good on him.
"You what?" his smile dropped. "What do you mean you died?" His eyes flicked up to your hair where a white streak ran through the locks, matching with Wilbur's.
"I don't remember anything from before or during. Oh gosh Karl, it was just cold and empty. Wilbur's helped a ton." You turned from the single person you could remember and turned to the man who had saved you. He was scowling slightly and had his arms crossed, a cigarette burning on the side of his mouth.
"My little sister got help from the he-devil himself?" Karl quirked a brow and looked at you disbelieving.
"It was meant to be a surprise. If you'd stayed in town like I asked things would've gone right." Wilbur growled a little.
"What're you talking about Wil. Nothing of yours has ever gone right." A man with black hair and white attire came from behind Karl along with a smaller man whose voice had risen. The smaller man was clad in a very...capitalist set of suspenders and a long scar ran down the side of his face and over his eye.
"Hush up Big Q. It was your idea for me to do it in Las Nevadas." Wilbur dabbed his cigarette ash into the sand, crushing an ember with the heel of his boot.
"Hold on," You stepped away from Karl and back to Wilbur's side. "If you're Quackity, and this is Karl." You turned to the last man with dark hair. "Who the fuck are you?" You asked and Friend baaed in agreement.
"Sapnap at your service. For being married to the guy, Karl never mentioned a sister." Sapnap leaned on Karl heavily and your brother's face turned a bright blooming red.
"Married?" Your mouth twitched and Quackity came towards you with an outstretched hand.
"The three of us are in a polyamorous marriage. That makes us family." Quackity smiled charmingly and you grimaced a little. This man did not fit Wilbur's colorful description. It didn't fit.
"Back up Q before you get a matching scar." Wilbur pulled you back by the shoulder.
"Watch your words Wilbur." Sapnap narrowed his eyes daringly and a small flicker of fire glowed on his knuckles with smoke rising from his skin.
"Okay, before a fight breaks out!" You turned to Wilbur. "Mind explaining the 'surprise' I somehow ruined?"
Wilbur sighed and flicked his cigarette away, crushing it under his heel with a flicker of a smirk as the ash and ember died away.
"I was gonna bring you here tonight and introduce you to Karl. I've been trying to find traces of you from your first life experience and I talked to Phil and he said Karl would be the one to know anything. Turns out your family and so I was gonna ask him if I could...." Wilbur's words trailed off into a muttering whisper and he turned away with an arm rubbing his neck.
"Didn't catch that last bit." You cleared your throat and Wilbur's face turned a bright red to match the shades that hung on his shirt collar.
"I was going to-" Wilbur was slow and sheepish. Friend baaed indignantly.
"He was gonna propose to ya if Karl would bless it since you ain't got a parental figure that we know of." Quackity shouted over him and Wilbur brought a stick of dynamite from his pocket.
"WOAH THERE LOVER BOY!" Sapnap stood in front of Karl and Quackity with sparks and flames coming from his fists.
"You were gonna propose?" You looked to Wilbur with a speechless face and his snarling face to Quackity vanished almost immedietly as he turned to you.
"Y-yeah." Wilbur shrugged and put the dynamite away.
"Wilbur!" You darted into his arms and buried yourself in his chest. "Yes." You said excitedly.
"I haven't even asked you yet!" Wilbur chuckled.
"Well hurry the hell up!" You said fiercely and Wilbur let out a booming laugh like an explosion.
Fuck the past, this man was going to be your future.
~~BONUS~~
Charlie stared from the back. You walked to Wilbur of Pogtopia and married him like it was so easy. It confused him, how forgetful humans were. The memory of your cold corpse in his hands was fresh in his mind.
The dull memory of your smile next to his and the guiding lessons of how to love and protect and simply had faded away with the life in your eyes. You hadn't taught him that just because you had taught him everything you knew didn't mean you weren't useful.
Things without use are pointless.
Things without use are not worth having anymore. So he killed you, your purpose fullfilled to him and your ghost never crossed paths with him. Now you could teach Wilbur to love maybe. Or maybe Wilbur will teach you.
"Congratulations Y/N of Dream SMP. Welcome back." He smiled and slimed away, back to the dark.

The One Where Octavian Gets Attacked by a Lemon
"In our defense, he almost dies all the time, anyway."
Salvidienus pinched the bridge of his nose to hide his mouth twitching up. Really, he wasn't surprised to find saboteurs in the garrison as the Parthian campaign neared. But he'd expected them to be armed with more than a butter knife and a lemon.
"Tell me who hired you, and I'll make your deaths painless. Also, explain how my best friend ended up in the medic tent covered in horseshit."
The oddly-dressed pair of would-be assassins huddled together on the camp grounds, like sacred chickens spooked by a piece of string. Or by the guards' swords pointed at their throats. That would also do it. The more timid, pink-haired one kept glancing at Salvidienus' muscle cuirass, which would have been flattering if the boy(?) hadn't just been arrested for attempted murder.
"We didn't need to be hired," said the other, who wore piercings in terrifying places and was probably some kind of Amazon. "We're here for the republic, not for pay."
"I'd like to be paid," said Pink Hair. "Do you think we could get course credit for this?"
Poor Gaius Octavius. Didn't even warrant professional assassins. Granted, he'd probably never conquer anything bigger than a head of lettuce, so Salvidienus could understand if the enemy wanted to economize.
"I'm not sure how terrorizing an asthmatic teenager in Macedonia is supposed to do anything for the republic."
"Macedonia? Huh," said Piercings. "This must be before he went to Gaul."
"Agrippa tells me you brandished the knife and screamed 'Memento mori motherfucker,' and he had to tackle you to make you stop chasing Gaius across the camp. Then what happened?"
Piercings smiled. "He ran like a dweeb."
"I wish I had been tackled by Agrippa," murmured Pink Hair dreamily.
"Anyway," said Piercings, "Agrippa caught me, but not before Caesar tried to escape on a horse. Parsleigh thought fast and chucked the lemon at the horse, and it threw him off, and he landed in the rubbish pile. And that's why your boss is covered in poop."
Pink Hair piped up, "We were doing him a favor! If he'd landed anywhere else he could've broken his neck!"
"Caesar is in Italy," Salvidienus said, and privately vowed never to hire discount assassins. "He won't be here for another two weeks. Also, Octavius isn't my boss."
The two incompetent assassins froze, faces slowly filling with the horror only seen in undergraduates about to fail a required course, or that's what Salvidienus would have thought if universities had been invented.
"Wrong Caesar," Piercings groaned, and poked at a device on her wrist. "This one must be Octavian. Parsleigh, we have to go."
Pink Hair frowned. "That can't be right. Octavian's a Percy Jackson character."
"Hey, soldier guy, do you have directions to the Senate house?"
Salvidienus obligingly drew them a map of the rats-nest of downtown Rome, because frankly, he wanted to see where this was going. As he handed it over, Octavius and Agrippa emerged from the medic's tent, thankfully with nothing bruised except Octavius' ego.
"No executions yet?" asked Octavius, sounding disappointed.
"Mistaken identity. They were trying to kill your great-uncle."
"Oh," said Agrippa. "That's alright then."
Octavius looked alarmed. "It is not alright!"
"Well, it is rather trendy, at the moment."
Piercings frowned at Octavius, then at the butter knife Salvidienus had confiscated, as if considering whether to have a go at Octavius anyway, while she was in the neighborhood. Pink Hair had squeaked "Agrippa" at a pitch humans shouldn't be able to reach, and hidden behind his co-conspirator.
"We could still try stabbing Augustus Caesar," Piercings said. "It's their own fault for reusing names all the time."
Octavius sputtered. "There aren't any Caesars named Augustus. Salvidienus, can we execute these two already?"
Salvidienus paused, a little taken aback by his friend's readiness to kill a couple of strangers. They'd all been preparing for a war, yes. There would be plenty of killing to come. But...a butter knife? Really? These dolts weren't dangerous to anyone, unless you had the constitution of soggy bread, which Octavius admittedly did.
"We could also try not escalating every problem into lethal violence immediately," Agrippa said blandly.
"See, Dementia," Pink Hair tapped his partner. "Agrippa doesn't think we should, either."
"And of course Agrippa is always right," she muttered, and tapped a button on her wrist device. "Okay. Okay! We'll go to the Senate house like we originally planned and stab Julius Caesar. Thanks for the map, soldier guy."
"Sorry about the lemon!" Pink Hair called, and in a flash of light, they were gone.
Salvidienus flinched, blinking spots from his eyes. One of the guards swore. Everyone else seemed equally stunned, save Agrippa, who was surveying the clear blue sky as if to watch for traces of the odd pair. Or perhaps for bolts of lightning. Why not save time and have all the nonsense in one day?
"The Senate house burned down years ago," Octavius said. "They can't meet Caesar there."
Salvidienus shrugged. "You don't think I'd actually betray your family, would you?"
"No, no. Of course not."
He smiled, and Salvidienus returned it, and they had a haruspex called in to purify the area and schedule a sacrifice for later. The gesture felt like too little, for such a strange encounter, and something still niggled in Salvidienus' mind as they returned to army drills.
The assassins had mixed up Octavius, of all people, with Julius Caesar. They'd thought he was some kind of threat to the republic. And come to think of it...frail though he was, Octavius had sailed straight into a warzone, crawled out of a shipwreck, stolen through enemy territory and nearly worked himself to death before he'd turned eighteen. At times sheer stubbornness seemed to be the only thing keeping him alive. That and Agrippa's reflexes, anyway.
Reflexes that apparently failed as Octavius rolled his ankle on the abandoned lemon, and fell face-first into the dung heap again.
Salvidienus chuckled and shook his head. Who'd name their poor kid "Augustus," anyway?

Hey there! Do you believe the Mikaelson's deserved their "happy ending." This ask is a bit sporadic btw.
I mean, what does that mean for their victims? What does justice look like in the vampire diaries universe. Literally all the suoernaturals were serial killers or knew serial killers.
Camille and Elijah had this anger searing within them. You could see it in Elijah's annoying sassy speaches. Camille understood Klaus, a serial killer. That's awful. And we see how she became after a vampire. I'm not saying this show is awfully written, i'm just saying their characters are interesting because their awful.
Unpopular oppinion but Elijah's type was ass. He found the worst of the worst with an attitude beyond his and called it a day.
I also heavily hated how they treated Marcel, Elijah and Hayley get to go to peace for that too. You said something that stuck to me and still does- you said the problem with the Mikaelson's is that "they don't try not to hurt eachother" which I could literally see in real life too. They were awful to each other yet got together in the after life. I mean jackson and Hayley too were toxic. Is the after life some parallel to the real world. I mean if their isn't any hell, how the heck does malivore work.
I could argue all supernaturals are bad and they kinda all went to "hell" together- Were-wolfs kill, just not at the caliber of Vampires. But their still a pack of serial killers camping with each other. Marcel did a good job of keeping control of the mass murder, he ruled the city with a keen eye to allow feeding and less death. Witches use blood to fule their magic too and are also awful.
I mean, do you think that the supernaturals killing each other would be better for the community of new orleans?
Just a bunch of questions, sorry !
About time I finally got to this after almost a month. My apologies!
So, I don't really know how controversial this take is, but I don't feel they did enough to deserve a fully happy ending, but I do believe they deserve some credit for trying to change for the better at certain points. However, I feel there was so little redemption done that all I can think is where they were GOING to go. We don't really know. I feel a lot of the redemption happened in the last season of TO, and then they all died, so how much of a happy ending do they really deserve? Or do they deserve it based on who they were going to become? Or WERE they gonna become even better people? I DON'T KNOW!! That's the problem, nobody knows where their direction was going. That's why I personally think if they knew the actors for these characters didn't want to stick around long, they shouldn't have even started huge character arcs for characters that didn't want to continue on into Legacies.
You make a great point with the whole "hell" questioning, I mean where did they really go? That's some lazy writing if I've ever seen it. That's a pretty huge story detail to just go "oops sorry didn't write that in hehe".
If they are in the afterlife together, I hope they're all arguing just like they did in life. I think that's the biggest punishment and hell they can ever have;being stuck together forever.
As for your last question, I do think it's possible that it could be beneficial depending on who died and such. I mean, there probably are some supernaturals who don't want to fight or anything, but the bad ones, I mean sure? Honestly that's a tough question.
Thanks for the questions, this was really interesting and thought provoking!

Okay so 1 I love how intense shen wei is. He's like "I have followed you and learned everything about you and I KNOW I shouldn't be near you but I want to caress your beautiful face it will warm my ice cold flesh" (how vampire of you babe) "and despite the lies I desperate yearn to just tell you you're the reason" oh shen weiiiii

Meanwhile Zhao yunlan, really, should have SOME clue of his reincarnations I swear to fuck. Why? Cause if he went to pretty much any psychic, medium, tarot reader, or even a therapist... they'd point out fairly quickly "um sir? Why do you have like an absolutely irrationally large hatred for cycles? Every time someone mentions a circle you start raving about how endless cycles are fucking awful messed uo things. I asked if you'd like to live a different life And you just went OFF about how when we die we forget who we are and everything is LOST and what the fuck is the POINT if it's all gone... so I guess upside you're probably not a suicide risk since you're so anti dying but like? Why do you even believe in reincarnation, sir, if it makes you THIS pissed off?"
Zhao yunlan: "because it's fucked up! It's absolutely fucked okay?! You croak, and fuck everything you love and care about cause you don't even have your memories, and shit out of luck for them because they're remembering a bitch who you are NOT anymore and can never even be again like. What the FUCK. What the fuckkkkkkk. Its stupid. Absolutely beyond stupid. I mean figures right, ghosts hurting people is stupid and fucking annoying too, but that's the world right. So go figure the whole life death process is all stupid too."
"Um sir. Did you just say ghosts exist? Wanna.. talk about that?"
Zhao yunlan: "-.- not particularly" (currently seeing like 5 potential ghosts he wasn't sure if they were just other customers/patients, since he's seen dumb dead people his whole life. At least those fuckinf ghosts still maybe REMEMBER something and are still A LITTLE BIT THEMSELVES)
"Um sir. You said that aloud? The thing about ghosts remembering...??"
Zhao yunlan, shit eating smile: "no. I didn't. I didn't say anything." (Gaslight gatekeep girlboss) "oh LOOK at the time, i gotta go, I'm a workaholic you know! Bye~~"
"Wait! Uh. Sir... oh I hope he calls back for another visit mm..."
Zhao yunlans brain the second he remembers his WATCH is ROUND and life and death are CYCLES so anyway reincarnation is killing its a fucking piece of shit I'm going off on the next fucking government supervisor about my reincarnation Thoughts when they bother me. Win win, I vent, they don't get a word in edgewise to critique me.
Tumblr media
Anyway my point is just. You'd think ANYONE he'd talk to who believes in past lives would be like "hey? Zhao yunlan? Have you considered maybe in your past life you REALLY wanted to remember or hold onto something and lost it and you were SO angry about it you manage to still be that angry now?"
And he'd completely miss the point made. He'd just jump right over it and be like "who cares who I WAS. This is me NOW, Zhao yunlan! And fuck any thing in the universe that thinks I'm letting THIS ME go. Fuck that. When I die, a long time from now (better be), I'm not forgetting SHIT mark my fucking words." (I'm gonna be a fucking lingering ghost with that attitude huh... oh no da qings gonna Claw me again -.- bastard)

Still holding you

Pairing: Eddie Munson x fem reader
Summary: Eddie turns back leaving you without him…
Word count: 876
Warning: angst, death
Universe: Hawkins
A/n: I feel like this is really bad and for that I'm sorry 🤍
Tumblr media
You both were supposed to climb through, but when you looked back Eddie was directed downward. Dustin called after him and he said he'd be back but you knew Eddie, and you figured out why he went back. You saw the look before he turned to head in the opposite direction. You didn't have time to argue with him or tell him not to go and you cursed, jumping back through.
The fall to the floor shot pain through you but it didn't matter because you were chasing Eddie and his stupid ass. He had told you about how what happened with Chrissy still hurt him and you reassured him, telling him there was nothing he could do and that's when the argument started…
Flashback
"Eddie, there was nothing you could have done about her dying," you sighed, clutching his hand.
"No, I should have tried instead of freaking out and shit. Someone should have and I was there!" He lashed out, standing with tears filling his eyes. You shook your head in disagreement.
"This wasn't a moment you could have helped Eddie. Think about all the other amazing things you " you smiled but he rolled his eyes.
"I always run, I mean- shit I shouldn't be such a pushover!" he expresses, pacing the room.
"Eddie, it's okay to run. No one is judging you. We're human and we get scared. That's normal. You don't have to prove anything " you say, stretching to grab his wrist, but he jerks it away.
"But I don't want to be a runner. I want to be able to say I hung around and fought," he says, turning to leave. You only chase him to the door, jumping when it closes.
End
That was the last time you spoke before the plan was made and you knew when you saw him he wasn't planning to run. When he ran, you did too. Your voice was hoarse from shouting his name into the disaster going on around you. You searched left and right attempting to spot him, hoping he hadn't been harmed before you got there, that perhaps he'd decided to turn back but you couldn't see him anywhere. That was until you heard him screaming.
Your heart tripled in pulses and you inhaled and exhaled like you were on the bridge of a panic attack. Your crying only made your voice harder to hear now, making you feel powerless. You didn't know where to search or if he was going to make it much longer.
"Eddie" You mouthed in shock discovering his body being clawed at. you ran as fast as your feet could take you, took hold of the nearest object attempting to kill the ones on top of him. you fell to your knees once you got them away, pulling him onto yourself.
"Jesus Eddie, why did you turn back?!" you screamed. He only offered you a smile wiping the tears away.
"you shouldn't come back down here" he sighed, glancing towards the clouded red sky.
"I wasn't gonna let you come back without trying to stop you." you choked out and his own eyes let the tears fall.
"God I thought I'd graduate this year but here I am dying" he laughed and you made an effort to but it just hurt you more.
"Hey, hey don't cry, I don't want this to be how I saw you last," he declared looking into your eyes.
"no, no, no, don't say that dust-Dustin saw me coming back and he'll be here just-just hang on will bring you back and you can graduate with me" you nodded and he shook his head, his eyes fluttering.
"I'm not gonna make it but you can." He says squeezing your hand.
"no Eddie I won't go without you!" You rushed.
"I know you won't" he smiles, looking over your shoulder and you turn to see Dustin there, tears falling down his face as you look back at Eddie, eyes widening.
"no! Eddie please!" Dustin came forward, pulling you from him.
"I'm sorry, I love you," he says, fingers still grasping your hand till you're entirely out of his reach. You still try to resist even if you know it's too late. You're filled with rage because Dustin took you away and Eddie asked him to.
"we have to go [name], he's gone. We can't stay here" Dustin said, his voice breaking as you sobbed in his arms. You nod but haven't gotten up to move. Your body is shut down and drained. You struggle to get on your feet but eventually get up. It was like you lost yourself there. Eddie had been your other half, no matter how cliche it sounded. Failing him was like losing you.
You were still trying to process how you were quitting on him, how you could walk away, but you did it for Eddie because that's what he wanted. He didn't want you to die here and maybe he was at peace in the end because he got to be in your arms and you would be safe. If that was the only thing you could give him, that was enough…
peace
But you knew you wouldn't be getting any because you were going back without him.

(Name) mom yelled "all right" (name) says while slipping on her shoe she had all ready put the other shoe she ran up to her mom and gave her a quick hug and said "love you, have a good day and goodbye!" (name) yells while running out of the house while walking to the school she put her headphones in and played her playlist and looked at apps like Facebook and restaurants near for dinner tonight and when she looked up to cross the road she saw a kid running across on a red light but some driver didn't see the light or kid panicking she shoved her phone in her dress pocket and ran shoving the kid out of the road on the streets not wanting the kid to see her soon fate she screams while running "close your eye tight and cover them wit- she looks back at the truck and squeezed her eyes closed tightly and to her surprise

(Name) says to herself when she looked to the right she saw the same thing as what she saw earlier but in a second or two she saw this room like but before she could make out what she saw she passed it but she thinks she saw a person in it then she saw something familiar " wait am I going in circles? Why can't I just land somewhere!?" She asked but no one heard her. Thinking of a plan sense she is obviously not going to land any time soon after waiting a moment she moved in mid air well she did a little air swim to the left wall and when she was close enough she reached her leg to it and kicked off it
when the room showed up again and right as she put her hands in front of her face to protect herself from the crash she saw someone or something finally noticing her *crash* she had a ruff landing when she came to the floor "why the fuck is human here?" A male like voice says (name) slowly looks up to the voice it was a man with pink hair bright bold yellow eyes with word engraved but (name) didn't know what it said, he had a Pink vest and white pants that went down to his knees and for shoes well he didn't exactly have shoes but he had pink beads on it, he didn't exactly have a shirt "hey, what the fuck are you doing here?" The man asked crouching down to be somewhat level with (name) who was still on the floor "uh?" (Name) said with a confused look "don't make me say it again " he said getting aggressive "I'm sorry I don't know what you're saying" 'okay, okay where have you possibly heard this language..? Come on (name) think' (name) thought herself "what the fuck? Are you a foreigner?" he asked 'wait umm I think I know is it Japanese.' She guest as if she was answering a question she didn't exactly know in front of the class. The two words she know in Japanese is da(snake, like a rattle snake that you can see in a dessert) and niji(rainbow, like the rainbow you see on a rainy day) niji was her favorite because it was fun to say. Then her memories hit her like a train "holy shit! I'm supposed to be dead!" (name) yells while grabbing
her head "is this a dream! Oh, my god is this hell!?" (Name) continue yelling but she stop and looked down at her arm and pinched herself "okay this is not a dream" "okay I don't know what that was for but the other upper moons are going to be here soon so you better start talking" he snared at her "I am all ready here Akaza" another man says, he had Blonde hair with pitch black drips from the top of his hair down to the middle and a blood red circle where the black drip begin with rainbow eyes and also had words in them with a sly grin ​​​and he had a long sleeve shirt and white pants in his hand was a golden fan with a flower in grave. "now what beautiful lady you have here Akaza may I ask why?" "is that your name? Akaza right?"

You aren't exactly good at hiding or running away" he tells you with a grin "shut it" "oh? What is with the attitude?" Douma asked with his grin widening it to a smirk sending goose bumps up her arms she slowly took a baby step forwards looking for a weapon she could use but Douma had saw her move so he took his changes and slid open the door quickly before she could notice but she had saw a wooden stick and ran to it
but Kokushibo and Douma saw her before she could reach it though
