Flash Family
I haven’t been keeping up with Wayne Family Adventures but I really would love a flash family webtoon.
We can have canon things but also headcanons.
Imagine:
- Movie nights that keep getting interrupted by villain attacks and then everyone falls asleep when they finally watch the movie.
- A rogue episode/multiple episodes that look at the rogues in a fun way.
- Crossovers with other families. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ARROW FAMILY!!!!
- You could introduce the idea in universe by bringing in Jess Chambers (Future State Flash) and have them live around the flash family. Would also love to see Andy.
- More discussions about each character and the relationships they have with other characters.
- Happy fun for the flash family, please!

i need Danai and Andy to confirm that there’s gonna be some kind of continuation of TOWL because all I do is spend time thinking of what richonne might be doing now that they’re reunited with their kids and i need a real answer.
my current Richonne obsession: the future richonne baby that is undoubtedly on the way
i can understand why some people want richonne to have time with their kids then choose to have another child. it would be beautiful and intentional which is something that matters when it comes to richonne. however I’ve come to like the idea of michonne being pregnant already. so my solution to this to get the best of both worlds is that michonne doesn’t know that she’s pregnant yet …
most women don’t know that they’re pregnant until about 8 weeks (more or less since it depends). let’s say michonne is early stages like 2-3 weeks by the time that they get back to Alexandria and doesn’t know yet. richonne spends some time with their kids and they go on dates and they get caught up on what they missed. one of these dates they talk about how much they love their family and how it would be nice to experience being parents together from start to finish. and since we know rick is a romantic, who is very madly in love with michonne, i can just see him already have it all planned and pictured in his head. he expresses to michonne that he wants to be there to get her whatever she’s craving, to see the baby on the sonogram and hear the heartbeat, read /talk to her belly, see their baby be born this time, hear their first word, first steps, and just all the things they didn’t get to do together with rj. michonne agrees (of course) and says she’d love for them to experience that too. they both agree though that as much as theyd love to have another baby, they can wait a little on actively trying so they can get more settled in since they’ve only been home for about a month. a couple weeks go by and michonne is realizing it may be time to take a little pregnancy test.
i can’t decide what I’d prefer in terms of the reveal. on one hand, I think it’d be cute for michonne to include rick every step of the way. she tells him she thinks she’s pregnant and he’s there for them to see the results of the test together. on the other hand, I think it’d be cute for michonne to take the test herself and then plan some kind of special way to tell rick. i’ve loved the idea of surprising your partner with the news since I was a kid and saw becky from full house try to tell jesse she was pregnant by making him a dinner that was baby themed (she had baby carrots, baby corn, etc), if i remember correctly becky was nervous to tell jesse cause they hadnt planned it but with richonne that’s obviously not the case. I think it’d be cute for michonne to excitedly plan something intimate for just her and rick so she can tell him they’re having a baby.
or maybe even a secret third option idk lol but either way i think almost any execution of a richonne pregnancy reveal that is trauma-free is what they deserve and what we deserve.
i need amc to throw soooooo much money at Danai, Andy, and Scott and promise them everything they could want to continue this story. alternatively maybe amc can contract the three of them to write romcoms outside the twd that stars Danai and Andy. just saying anything at this point 😭😭 but i just need them back on my screen happy! and i need it real bad. real real bad

This may be an unpopular opinion, but...
As much as I love BarclayPierce, I don't necessarily want them to be canon in the franchise.
Don't get me wrong, I am desperate for them to interact more in the show. Teaming up and becoming friends after they knew about each other for so long and never got to meet but I would rather see them interact as friends and then read into the performances.
This is because after looking back on the entire franchise I have come to a conclusion:
Don Mancini can not write a healthy romantic relationship to save his life.
Think about it:
Chiffany speaks for itself.
Andy's foster parents in CP2 weren't too bad if it wasn't for the fact that Phil was an asshole (at least in my opinion).
Andy and Kristen in CP3 were sweet, but realistically, it was a teenage crush, and we know for a fact didn't last for whatever reason.
Jesse and Jade seemed cute on the surface but then instantly started accusing the other of murder with no evidence.
Barb and Ian's marriage was obviously awful, and by extension, so was Barb and Jill's since Barb was cheating, and they both knew it.
Both Lexy and Junior's parents' relationship was toxic in a way, with Michelle and Logan being narcissists and constantly ignoring or shutting down their sposes opinions.
Lexy and Junior's relationship was pretty similar, too, with Junior even admitting that he was afraid of Lexy.
Jake and Devon started off cute, but as I've said before, with all the conflict in Season 2, it seems that they are more in love with their idea of the other person rather than the person themselves. Even in season 3, we haven't really seen them emotionally connect, it just keeps being overly sexualized scenes (which is a whole other conversation)
Grant and Lexy (if they count) it is basically all manipulation since Lexy apparently can't stand Grant and is only pretending to like him to get to Chucky, with it only hinting that her opinion may have changed on him after he opened up about losing his brother. (Let's not even start about the fact that Jackson was 22 and Alyvia was 15 when they filmed that kiss scene.)
And finally, James and Charlotte Collins, where it has been revealed that James has previously cheated on Charlotte and she is still with him even after finding out.
I'm not even counting Niffany as a relationship since it is purely Tiffany abusing Nica.
So, yeah. Personally, I don't trust Don to not mess BarclayPierce up if he did decide to make them canon so I would rather get excited about their little friendly interactions and see what Alex and Fiona would do with their performances.

Princess
Enemies to lovers with Eddie Munson x fem!reader.
summary: you were a cheerleader and best friends with Jason and his goons, and after realizing that your old dealer quit, you only had one dealer left in Hawkins, and you happened to hate him, but you still had to get weed.
Or... two times you stopped Eddie's flirting and argued with him and the one time you flirted back.
warnings: explicit +18, insults, cursing, drug selling (it doesn't specify that y/n consumes it, so if you're not comfortable with smoking it, you can read it still), making out, suggestive content.
a/n: we need more enemies to lovers fics with eddie munson!!
Tumblr media
"What else do we need for tonight, Jason?" Andy asked after the cheerleading practice was over, some basketball players were there waiting for their girlfriends. Among them were Jason waiting for Chrissy and Andy waiting for his girlfriend Jess.
You weren’t one of the cheerleaders with a boyfriend though.
"We still need the weed and maybe more bottles of vodka" Jason answered.
"We can just invite the dealer to the party and buy there" Jess suggested.
"The problem is that our usual dealer isn't working anymore, said something about wanting a proper job or something" one of the guys said.
"We don't have a dealer now?"
"Well, we have one choice left, but I don't think you're gonna like it"
Everyone stared at Andy waiting for him to finish his sentence.
"Eddie Munson sells"
"No way, we're not inviting that freak to our party" Jason quickly said.
"Then we won't have weed"
"But why can't we just buy it before hand?" Jess interfered.
"I'm not talking to that freak"
"Noup, me neither" They all started fighting over that until Jason stoped it.
"We're gonna make this fair, we all bought and contributed to what we need fo the party, except for Y/n and Jess, so one of them is going to buy more vodka and the other is going to Munson to buy the weed"
"I'll buy the vodka!" Jess responded quickly.
"Wait! no, why do I have to go with the freak?!" you complained.
"It's only fair, Y/n, you took too long"
You were about to complain again but they all started to disperse letting you know that it was decided, you were buying from the freak.
So that's how you ended up here in the woods, trying to find the metalhead you hated so much.
"There you are! I thought you were standing me up, princess" He talked and you turned around finally meeting him.
"Oh God, I got lost because of these stupid woods you wanted me to come" you responded annoyed.
"I always have the meetings here" he said calmed.
"Alright, can we just get this over with?"
"Are you in a rush, princess, or you just don't want to be with me?" he said teasingly.
"Both, and can you stop calling me that?"
"What" he played dumb.
"Princess"
"I thought it suited you, with you being the princess of Hawkins High and everything" he joked.
"Thinking like that, I should be calling you a freak" you teased back.
"Ohh no, it hurts so bad" he put his hands on his chest where his heart is, acting as if he's hurt.
"So funny, Munson, can you just give me the weed?"
"Yeah, here it is, it's gonna be 50"
"That much?"
"Well, it is a lot of weed and you kind of annoyed me a little, so yeah, that much"
"Eddie if I were you- well, I'd change a lot of things about myself if I were you, but I would think this through. Because I don't think you're realizing that I'm friends with all of the jocks that dislike you so much, and would be so happy to have a reason to kick your ass. So give me the real price or I'll go tell them about this" you threatened.
"Oh, is the princess gonna go tell on me? Is the princess gonna make all of her friends beat me up because I didn't treat her like one?" he came closer to you while he talked. "Oh, please, princess I'll be good, I'll treat you so right" he stood on his knees for that last part, acting as if he was asking for mercy right in front of you.
"You're unbearable"
"Alright, I'll tell you what, I'll give it to you for..."he stopped a second to think "30, just because it's fun to see you annoyed"
"So sweet of you"
For your luck, this wasn't the only time you had to meet to buy from him. Since the old dealer quit and your friends actually liked the weed Eddie sold. You were assigned to be the one who bought from him. You convinced yourself that it was better than to be the one who's house was used for the parties, which was John.
"We meet again, sweetheart" he greeted you when you got to your usual meeting spot in the woods.
"Yeah, hi Munson"
"You're incredible, you always find a way to be colder and colder each time we see each other"
"And somehow, you always find a way to be more and more annoying each time"
"I told you why, it's fun to see you annoyed, you get all red and you frown your eyebrows trying to look mean with that adorable face you've got" It just slipped from Eddie, he re-thought the entire sentence since it hadn't had sounded so much like a complement in his head. It definitely wasn't supposed to be.
"Now I'm adorable too? be careful, if you keep calling me all of these names, I'm gonna end up thinking you have a crush on me" you teased.
"I have standards and they're definitely not cheerleaders like you, sorry to disappoint you"
"Yeah right, as if you could even get a cheerleader, and what standards are you talking about? you'd be with anyone who'd give you the time of the day trying to loose you virginity"
"Oh I'm not a virgin anymore, sweetheart. I'd offer to show you but I don't think you could handle it, maybe calling me a freak was correct after all" he joked.
"That's- disgusting" you started "but there was the name calling again, watch it Munson"
"What names?"
"You've called me sweetheart and adorable, all in one day"
"Well, you said you didn't like being called princess"
"So thoughtful of you, but I'd prefer if you didn't call me anything and just gave me my stuff"
"Here you go, sweetie"
"Here’s your 30, goodbye Munson"
"Bye love!" you rolled your eyes, you shouldn't have said anything.
After your delightful encounter with Munson, you went to the lunchroom and to the table with all the cheerleaders, your friends, and started to eat and chat with them.
"Did you get the weed for this weekend, y/n?" Samantha asked you.
"I did, had to put up with Munson though, so you better appreciate my efforts"
"Oh, he's not that bad, the guys make him look worse than he is" Chrissy defended him.
"Are you friends with him?" you asked.
"I wouldn't say friends, acquaintance, maybe. But I chat with him every now and then. I've known him since middle school, oh and I had a crush on him when I was in freshman year" she laughed at the memory.
"Yeah, I kinda get it, I prefer him with longer hair though, he looks way hotter now" Jess added and Chrissy nodded.
"Hot? Eddie Munson? What are you talking about?" you asked, you couldn't believe them.
"Oh, come on Y/n, I'd get it if you were one of the guys, but please, the long hair, the tattoos and the rings? you can't tell me you've never noticed"
The conversation about Eddie eventually stopped, not before all of the other girls in your table agreed that they would like to know what's under the black ripped jeans and the hellfire shirt that Eddie wore almost everyday.
You were taken aback, you've never thought about him like that. Maybe you were paying too much attention to what the basketball players said about the dungeon master, instead of thinking for yourself.
And when you really thought about it, maybe your friends were right, maybe he really was hot. You could even find him cute if you focused on his face, his brown doe eyes and pink lips.
God, stop thinking about Eddie Munson and just go to sleep already!
For your next gathering with him, you were far more nervous than usually. Now that you have admitted that you could find him attractive, you couldn't stop thinking about him, spotting him in every crowd.
And you definitely couldn't stop thinking about the time he told you that he could prove to you that he wasn't a virgin, but that it would be too much for you.
Good God, just stop that brain.
Back to where you were now, in the woods waiting for this boy you couldn't get out of your head.
"Princess! You're early today, couldn't wait to see me?" He appeared with his usual smirk and teasing.
You didn't know how to treat him now. Should you be cold like always? Or maybe more flirty like he was? maybe he would find it weird if you acted nice all of the sudden.
"Sure, Eddie" ugh what even was that?
"I have your stuff right here, so I don't bother you with my presence anymore for this week" he joked and waited for your witty comeback.
"It's fine" you softly said and shook your head.
He frowned.
"Ok, love, you're actually scaring me today"
"Um- I- Uh fine, just give my stuff and I'll leave you alone" you said not looking at him anymore.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing's wrong Eddie! Can't I just be nice?" you started to get a little frustrated.
"You can, you don't usually decide to be with me though"
"I know, I don't even know what I'm trying to do right now, just give me the bag so I can leave, Eddie"
"You keep calling me Eddie"
"What?"
"You never call me Eddie, you always call me Munson or freak"
"Yeah, you already let me know I'm acting weird today"
"I like it, I like how it sounds when you say it"
You stared at him with a little shock, not knowing how to react at that.
"Well... maybe I like when you call me princess too" you whispered, fearing that if you said it too loud it would be too real.
He hear you though and there was that smirk again.
"I knew that" he whispered back "care to explain what made you flirt back with me? not that I'm complaining"
"Thought you had standards, and that they definitely didn't include cheerleaders" you teased.
"You're too hot for standards, I knew you were going to be the exception anyways"
"I'm flirting back because, I guess I just stopped caring about what the jocks say"
"Are you sure you're not just doing this so you can get a discount?" he joked and you both laughed.
"Tell you what, I'd love to prove to you that I'm not messing with you, but I don't think you could handle me" you teased him.
"Oh sweetheart, I'm begging you to prove me wrong"
"Yeah?" he nodded "come here"
He came closer to you, you wrapped your hands around his neck, and he grabbed you by your waist with care, not really believing this was actually happening.
You pulled him even closer to your face, put your lips over his, barely touching them, feeling his hot breath on your mouth and making him feel yours.
Until you finally kissed him.
It started slow and sweet, but when you started playing with his hair, slightly pulling from it, making him moan softly. He wrapped his hands around your waist pressing you against him and you started to kiss more passionately.
Eventually, you pulled away from each other's lips, but still close to him, playing with his hair.
"I realized that I really really like you, that's why I was trying to be nicer" you confessed.
"I really, really, really like you too, if you didn't notice before"
"Kinga figured" you joked.
"Oh yeah? Is that right?" he laughed and kissed your cheek "Want to go out with me this weekend, princess?"
"I'd love that, Eddie"
"And then maybe later we can go to my room and I can show how much of a virgin I am"
"How romantic" you laughed now, only if you knew he wasn't joking about being a real freak.

omg i just finished your emma vs amy takes and the subsequent discourse about it (which was so refreshing to see btw!! love it when adults can be Adults and argue about the topic without insulting the other person) and I might get fried for this but that incident aside, do you have any other scene/episode in mind where sam reacts the same way or does the same thing?
(im sorry if this isn't your cup of tea for asks! your takes have been Enlightening)
You mean another situation where Sam shoots a person with supernatural abilities who hasn't shed blood and has a sympathetic backstory without giving them a chance? Not as overtly—Benny in season 8's "Citizen Fang" certainly comes to mind, but even Benny, Sam at least made a show of giving a chance by assigning Martin to keep tabs on him and make sure he didn't do anything wrong before trying to kill him. (Though whether there was conscious or subconscious sabotage involved when Sam chose Martin specifically—someone he knew to be mentally unstable—is certainly a good question given Sam had already made death threats about Benny before then.)
The fact that Sam's behavior in 7.13 "Slice Girls" is pretty unique is really what I want to point out about this episode in the first place—that Sam's actions in "Slice Girls" are inconsistent with his previous behavior and future behavior as far as "good" monster episodes. We can turn to examples such as:
1.14 where Sam insists they try and talk Max down instead of killing him, because Max's murders are a result of extensive abuse.
Lenore and her nest in SPN's seminal "monsters can be good" episode (2.03)
Sam thinking Andy is responsible for the killings in 2.05 but still waiting for proof before acting.
2.09 where Sam insists they not kill someone they think might be infected with Croatoan virus before he turns and tries to kill them because that doesn't give him a chance.
Two episodes where Sam faces off against Gordon because Gordon wants to kill him before Sam kills someone (2.10, 3.07)
2.17 where Sam and Dean search for a cure for Madison, who is not aware that she has been killing people.
4.04 Metamorphosis where Sam is the one who takes the initiative to research Rugarus, learns that they can survive without giving into their urges, and insist they go and talk to him about how his body is changing (lol) so he has the chance to fight the urge to kill and eat people.
5.06 where Sam and Dean oppose Cas who wants to kill Jesse, who is a child who is not aware that he has powers and is hurting people.
6.02 where Sam, even soulless, recognizes the innocence of a shifter baby.
Then we have Amy and Emma in 7.03 and 7.13 respectively.
8.04 where the brothers let Kate the Werewolf go because she was turned against her will and killed the man who turned her in self-defense.
8.09 Citizen Fang (already discussed)
I'm getting lazy but then we also have Magda and Jack Kline—both children with powers, one severely abused, the other the son of the devil with uncontrolled explosive powers that could end the world, both of whom Sam attempts to help work with their abilities.
Dean has a more structured series of personal "rules"—a litmus test we see from the very beginning—one Sam often follows as well, but I'm not sure Sam ever really fully grasps that Dean thinks this way.
Has this person hurt or killed anyone?
Was it on purpose or was it outside of their awareness?
If it wasn't on purpose, are they capable of learning to control their urges?
We see this code as early as 1.12 "Faith":
SAM Wait, what the hell are you talking about Dean, we can't kill Roy. DEAN Sam the guys playing God, he's deciding who lives and who dies. That's a monster in my book. SAM No. We're not going to kill a human being Dean. We do that we're no better than he is.
Dean applies the same reasoning in 1.14 with Max:
SAM These visions, this whole time -- I wasn't connecting to the Millers, I was connecting to Max! The thing is I don't get why, man. I guess -- because we're so alike? DEAN What are you talking about. The dude's nothing like you. SAM Well. We both have psychic abilities, we both... DEAN Both what? Sam, Max is a monster, he's already killed two people, now he's gunning for a third.
Despite the exact opposite being the typical fandom perception, early on we learn that Sam tends to define a monster by their features/abilities, while Dean defines a monster by their actions. We see the same with Amy—she is "a monster who killed four people" (7.07) . She isn't a monster because of what she is but because of what she did. This again—is also why Dean doesn't even consider killing her son right after her kid swears to kill him one day. We see Dean, in the rare cases where it comes up, is also perfectly fine with taking out human serial killers they stumble across (ex: Thin Man).
Sam will also kill a human serial killer at times (and murderous witches by 3.09), but he reserves the word "monster" to describe individuals with supernatural features/abilities... and I think the fact that Sam's definition of the term differs from Dean's is something neither brother ever fully realizes about the other, leading at several points to arguments where they are talking past each other and do not understand one another. Sam hears "monster" and thinks "Dean is talking about me", when Dean is operating under a completely different definition of the term that is based on the actions of a person.
When Sam is in a headspace where he is thinking of himself as one of those monsters, he shows increased or lessened sympathy in turns. For example, he assumes Andy's guilt in 2.05 because he is panicked about becoming evil himself and is comparing the two of them (but again—still waits for confirmation) but his sympathy for Max in 1.14 comes from the same comparison with himself. Sam completely misrepresents Amy in 7.03 as an addict who relapsed but more generally is "managing", as a way to compare her with himself... when Amy didn't feed on anyone herself and her actions have absolutely nothing to do with addiction or battling "monstrous urges".
I've been bitching and moaning a lot, but I will reemphasize that there is a more sympathetic reason that Sam shoots Emma—Sam and Dean are both crowding up to the diving board at the deep end of the pool in season 7. Dean's grieving and is drinking extremely heavily to cope and Sam is hallucinating. They are both unraveling at the seams. Neither of them is in a place where they trust the other's judgement because they both know themselves and each other to be unstable. So if we imagine a reality where Sam and Dean give Emma a chance, and it doesn't take, Sam assesses himself and Dean to be in no mental state to cope with a potential surprise attack. It's just that Sam also erroneously compares Amy and Emma when they are not the same, and by doing so, frames Dean wanting to spare Emma but killing Amy as hypocrisy (because they are both "monsters") when Dean's actions are perfectly consistent with his personal ethical code and his definition of a "monster"... and Sam's actions aren't.

Dance Marathon Episode (Aka Murder On the Dancefloor)-Part 7
I'm not looking forward to the next episode, Let The Games Begin. I only remember small fragments of it, andI know it's almost Literati Kickoff Time and I'm getting nervous. Stall, stall, stall! Oh hey look who it is.
Tumblr media
Salty, in her best, nasally Adam Brody voice: One sandweech please. Thinking about @frazzledsoul's headcanon where Dave Rygalski and Max Medina cross paths in California and Max mows Dave down with his car. Dave was really living out Jess' dream. You know what else I keep thinking about the entire time I'm watching this episode? What times these events are taking place. Dave Rygalski is just wandering in fresh faced and bushy tailed at 5am on a Sunday morning to see Lane. He's soooo dreamy. You know what else I'm thinking about? How that bucket of egg salad has been sitting out unrefrigerated for 24 hours and Stars Hollow is about to experience a mass food poisoning the likes of which the town has never seen. No need to worry, On top of the IRS, Child Protective Services, and the Connecticut Labor Board, I'd already added the Connecticut Health Department to my speed dial.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Well isn't that cute. But Alas. Lord Amy giveth, and Lord Amy taketh away.
Tumblr media
Dave. Ma'am. Dave: Uh, no, I heard a bunch of people talking about the sandwiches, so I thought I'd come in and try one.
Tumblr media
Getting hit by a car would be much quicker and less painful than suffering a slow and agonozing death from e.coli but who am I to play God, I guess. Mrs Kim loads Dave up with sandwiches to bring home to his parents after they return from nearby "Bible Study" (at 5am). Since this is Stars Hollow and everyone is a naive rube, Mrs Kim doesn't question which church or why she doesn't already know these other churchy people in this small town or how it's possible they're outchurching her by waking up at 4am on a Sunday, and totally falls for it. You gotta give it to Dave, he's slick. I'm gonna start calling him Slick Dave. The final opportunity for Lane to at least fake interest in Jess to piss off her mother has just sailed past. Womp womp.
Tumblr media
6 minutes left in the episode, ya'll. Buckle in. *heavy, resigned sigh* Rory's about to act like such a salty little b that she's going to... force me to defend Dean. A Salty's gotta do, what a Salty's gotta do…
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's what Dean's parents said about him after his birth.
Tumblr media
Shane with the thousand yard stare like her corpse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rory Freaking Gilmore! Enough!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've had it with you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm bored. Okuh. *tonsil hockey* Look, everyone, look at those two kids and how every time you see them they're always sticking their tongues down each other's throats and not talking This is relationship goals, honestly. Rory knows it. This is why she has sand in her panties.
Tumblr media
If you've ever wondered whether this actress, Jessica Kiper, knows what a sweet gig it was to get paid to make out with Milo Ventimiglia and say a few lines...she knows.

I mean, they've tried. So are you offering? Can they go back to your house and do it in your bed? You're certainly not using it for anything other than sleeping.

They've been there, done that, also in a closet, in the backseat of a car, on the school football field, under the bleachers, in a bathroom...

It was not a telephone pole, it was a tree. You were there, Rory. You were there.

So I’ve watched a good chunk of seasons 3 and 4 of Laramie as well as a few from season 1 and I am now gonna make it all yall’s problem and bless you with my commentary and clips from each episode, enjoy I guess 😂
Without further ado, S1.EP1 Stage Stop
Not the outlaw being upset they spelled his name wrong in the newspaper 😂
Jess’s introduction to Laramie was absolutely terrible, poor guy just got shot at. Absolutely love how he just ignored the lawman when he was told to stop though, a very Jess thing to do 🤣
Jess and Slim’s first meeting is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Let’s take a look at it, shall we?
I mean the first shot alone where they show the sign “Sherman Ranch, No Trespassing” and then cut to Jess just lounging around like he owns the place 😂 
And the dialogue:
Slim: What’re you doing here?
Jess: Gettin’ a crick in my back!
Plus this gem:
Jess: I had 3 or 4 swallows out of your private stream. My horse helped himself too, so you just figure out what I owe you, and I’ll be on my way. Oh, and uh, I looked at a bird flying over. Will there be a charge for that?
Look Jess I love you so much but who gave you the right to be so freaking sassy 😂 (we adore him for it though) but Slim had valid concerns, I see both sides of the situation here. I mean Jess, you should’ve read the sign, and I can see why Slim is wary of strangers, but I too would be ticked off if someone just showed up and was holding me at gunpoint
Not Jess just sending Slim flying 😂 boy don’t mess around
Overall I think this first meeting went really well you guys
Andy is so flipping adorable and I would die for him, the way he just gets along so well with Jess right off the bat 😭 10x funnier that he’s Slim’s brother though 🤣
Look at the racoon! And the way Andy washed his food for him 🥺 it's so cute how this little gesture shows how much he knows about animals and how much he cares for them
Tumblr media
When Jess dozed off and Andy came in and startled him and he just whipped around with his gun and when he realized it was Andy and he was so apologetic 😭 but just gets me thinking about Jess being a loner and a drifter and being so used to looking out for himself yet still being so compassionate to this kid he just met. He’s so good with kids and I think it’s just darling seeing him interact with Andy and later on Mike.
Ugh I’m having so many Thoughts on Jess’s childhood, of course they are of the angsty variety, all prompted by these lines of dialogue (putting them in different colors so it's easier to differentiate between them):
Andy: Jess, how old were you when you first went out on your own?
Jess: Can’t hardly remember when I wasn’t on my own, like Jeremiah here and Sam. Only I didn’t find a soft touch like you. Maybe I didn’t want one. 
Andy: Do you like it better alone?
Jess: It just worked out that way.
Andy: Don’t you get lonely sometimes?
Jess: You get used to it.
As if these lines weren't heart breaking enough, Jess's tone of voice and facial expressions just really added to it. Yes there will be fics in the future no I do not need more wips
Jess had a fractured skull you say?? *adds to list of details to keep in mind for later*
Look at them playing cards together <3 yes I totally get that Andy's complete and total willingness to trust anyone who comes along is a bit concerning but it's also so sweet and I just love how he interacts with Jess
Tumblr media
The way Andy was just working up the courage to ask Jess to take him with him and Jess being so gentle and telling him maybe when he’s older their relationship is everything you guys 😭
I know at times Slim seems a little harsh on Andy but he really just wants the best for him and it’s sweet. 
Love how Jonesy just deescalates the situation so smoothly and just calmly drags Slim away 😂
I’ve noticed that Jess gets called saddle tramp an awful lot so I’m starting a running count, we are currently at 1
Jonesy saying Slim is just a kid is just… it’s kinda funny but at the same time - how do I want to explain this? - like Slim is out here saying Andy needs to get things figured out, needs to become a better judge of character, and then Jonesy is just like “you’re figuring things out too pally. you’re responsible for your kid brother now and you still got some things to learn” You can see that Jonesy knows Slim really well and I love their dynamic
Jess was so ready to end Slim right then and there 😂 what can I say, I like my men violent 🤣 seriously tho the fact that Jess and Slim were just constantly beating each other up throughout this entire episode before they decided to try running a ranch together is the funniest thing
Tumblr media
Everything about Bud Carlin irritates me, the way he speaks, the way he moves, his whole demeanor, I just hate it 😂
When Carlin’s asking about how long it takes the stage to get there once it’s in sight and Jonesy’s just out here throwing in a bunch of random circumstances to avoid answering 🤣 and then Carlin gets so irritated that he decides to ask Jess instead lol but Andy just immediately telling him what he wants to know so Jess doesn’t get hurt 😭 bless his little heart AND JONESY REACHING HIS ARM OUT TO GRAB THE GUY WHEN HE WENT TO PUNCH JESS Jonesy's a real one
Tumblr media
When Jess and Andy are out in the barn shoeing the horse and Andy tries to grab a rifle and Jess stops him cuz he didn’t want him to get hurt 😭
Oh when Carlin makes Jess punch Slim in the face… like we know they were about to go at it when he walked in but now Jess is like no way, the friendship is progressing you guys, and poor Slim was just like "do it", somebody get this poor man some ice and an ibuprofen
But as soon as Carlin makes Jess hit Slim that third time he turned on Carlin so fast
Tumblr media
Andy’s voice was almost breaking when he saw Slim laying on the ground and he was trying to wake him up and it almost broke me 😭
The way they all go to check on Slim as soon as the guy leaves the room 🥺
Andy was just begging Jess to go with Slim so that he’d have some help and Jess wouldn’t go and then Andy has tears in his eyes and says “No wonder you travel alone, who’d wanna team up with a saddle tramp like you?” nooooooo 😭 I really act like I’ve never seen this episode before also Jess saddle tramp count is now at 2
They really just threw that guy out of the stagecoach, that wasn’t very nice
JESS CAME BACK yes I already knew this would happen, hush your timing is impeccable pally
Look at these idiots (affectionate) 😂
Tumblr media
Alright I'm gonna write out this scene for you because Reasons (once again in color so it's easier to differentiate):
Pete: I’m hurt bad, Jess. Don’t shoot.
Jess: I was hurt bad too. And it wasn’t just the money Pete.
Pete: I didn’t take it Jess. I swear I didn’t
*Pete proceeds to grab for his gun and Jess shoots him again, sending him flying off the cliff*
So satisfying yall also that dialogue though, I sense another fic in the future
Not the fanning of the guns, ugh I hate when they do that and Jess does it all the time
I love how Jess just puts his gun away and lets Slim deal with Carlin on his own, the way he just saunters over while they’re fist fighting and the way they replay the bit Carlin pulled on them when he made Jess hit Slim, sheer perfection 🤣
Aw Andy was so excited to see Jess and Slim back safely 🥺
Tumblr media
Friendship has been established pallies, that is what we call ✨character development✨
Tumblr media
Also if you haven’t noticed I’m a tad bit obsessed with Jess ok maybe more than a tad so here’s some bonus gifs of him being sassy 😂❤️

Tumblr media
Andy grabs his cup of coffee as he gets out of his car.  He looks at the sign on the door, making sure he was in the right place.  Checking on his phone, and it was in fact the address that Curtis had sent him to.  Andy would have questioned it further until he spots Curtis’ old truck.  
He nods his head at the woman at the desk, and sits down taking a sip, “Do you have an appointment?”
He shakes his head, trying to swallow the bitter brew, “No, I’m waiting on someone.”
“Sir, we don’t allow exes here,” she stands up, backing away, and Andy looks at her even more confused.
“No, Curtis.  Everett.  Is he…I mean, in there?  He’s an old friend, and he’s helping me with something.”
“Oh,” she relaxes, sitting back down at the desk.  Curtis did ask if he could leave his truck here for a few hours.  “I’m sorry.  My apologies,” Andy wants to question further, but with the fact that he was at Curtis’ therapist, he can only imagine why there were no exes allowed.  
Andy takes another sip, cursing himself for always needing to be ridiculously early to things.  He leans his head back, closing his eyes.  He could see Jessie as if it was yesterday.  Going to his front door, and seeing her standing there in the rain, “Hey, Andy.  Do you mind if I come in?”
He opens the door slowly, still not believing she was real.  Her cheeks were sunken in.  Her skin was pallid while her eyes bounced around looking at the windows with the curtains open, “Jess is something wrong?”
“Nothing.  Nothing,” she answers too quickly, closing the curtains.
He walks behind her, and she flinches away at his warmth, “Don’t touch me!”
“Jess?”
“Andy, I’m scared.  I didn’t…the safest I’ve ever felt was with you, and,” she looks at the front door, going to it quickly to lock.  
“Hey,” she wants to melt in his arms, but Brock’s words of her infidelity shout in her head.  “Why don’t you take a shower.  I’ll get you some warm clothes.  You can sleep in the guest room,” she nods her head, and follows him to the bathroom.  “Want me to order a pizza?”
“No!  No deliveries,” her head shakes rapidly, and she covers her eyes with her hand, “No, please don’t,” she whispers before turning away from him.
“It’s okay.  I’ve got some leftover soup I’ll heat up.  Give you something warm, okay?” She gives him a nod before walking into the bathroom.  “I’ll leave your clothes…?”
“You can put them in here,” she struggles to reach her hand out towards him, but is successful.  Touching on his bicep with a smile.  She knows she screwed up with Andy.  Knew she never should have left, and now she’s left to wonder what could have been if she followed through with his plan.  
Andy opens his eyes to check his watch, still having way too much time before Curtis would be finished.  He finishes off his coffee, and leans over onto his knees.  His hands rubbing on each other with worry.  Trying to remember everything that last happened with him and Jessie.
“Andy,” his eyes flutter open at the soft whisper.  Jessie nervously stands in his doorframe.  Her fingers picking at the wood, until she notices him sitting up in the bed, “I couldn’t sleep.”
“Well come here,” he yawns out.  His arms stretch above his head while she smiles and walks over to his side of the bed.  Leaning over him to softly press her lips against his.  And when he returns the kiss, her knees press into the bed, going to straddle him.  “Wait,” he tries to protest, but she continues her motions.  Moving from his neck back up to his mouth.
“Jess, wait.”
“Andy, help me remember what it felt like to be loved.”
“You don’t need that.”
“I need you,” her green eyes beg him to return her kisses.  Grabbing his hand to cup her mound.  “Please.  I love you,” he lays her down, settling over her body.  Crazed kisses turn into the most tender and loving ones.  Pressing open mouth kisses right to that special place behind her ear.  “Andy,” she whimpers out as he travels further south
“Andy,” he lifts up his shirt that was swallowing her whole, “Andy,” his mouth attaching to her tit, “Andy, man, I can’t shout in the waiting room,” Curtis slaps on his back, and Andy sits straight up.  “Why are you falling asleep here?”
“Got here early.  Come on,” he goes to stand, but Curtis sits still, pulling him back down to the chair.  “Curtis.”
“No, we wait,” the receptionist lifts her head up looking at him with a smile.  “Late?” She nods her head, and returns to her work.  Billing out patients.  “You will wait.”
Andy groans, rolling his eyes.  If he had to wait, at least he could have been left alone with his thoughts.  Looking back he knows that Jessie was not in a good place.  Knew that she was searching for easy love, and Andy provided that comfort.  But he wouldn’t change anything about those last few weeks he had with her.
His foot bounces around nervously, because Marshall had a lead with Brock’s little sister Amy, and they needed to check it out.  Curtis places his hand on Andy’s knee, shaking his head, “You need to make an appointment with Doc?”
“What are we waiting on?”
Curtis’ crystal blue eyes look out at the parking lot, and his mouth turns up into a big smile.  Wiggling his arms as he goes to stand up.  The cute little SUV pulls in, the door opens, and the girl leans over gathering all kinds of things from her passenger seat.  Arms loaded with books, pencil bag, coffee, bottle of water, purse, and who knows what else.  Curtis waits until she gets closer, and opens the door for her.
She looks up at Curtis, and then to Andy before she scurries into the door where Curtis had emerged.  He sighs, before walking out without another word.  Andy looks up at the receptionist confused, and she shrugs, “She doesn’t talk to anyone, but Doc.  He waits on her every time.  Opens the door for her.  Sweet girl, she always has to bring all kinds of things,” she offers Andy a smile, and returns to her work.  
He heads outside, and Curtis is already buckled up in the Audi.  Andy smiles before getting into the car, “Don’t say a word.”
“You have a crush.”
“I am being nice to someone that needs help opening the door.”
“All she had to do was push it with her foot.”
“Last time she did that, she spilled her tea.  And she broke out in hives because she couldn’t clean it up fast enough.”
Andy gives him a slow nod as he backs up, and heads to meet Marshall.  Letting him know that he and Curtis were on their way.  His job was to make sure that Amy didn’t leave.  “Shut up,” Curtis almost pouts, leaning back in his seat.
“I didn’t say anything.  She is cute though.  Love the scarf and glasses.”
“I told you not to say anything.”
“She looks a bit like your brother’s age.”
“She’s Doll’s age,” Curtis answers too quickly.
“So you know about her?”
“No,” Andy turns to look at Curtis with disbelief, and the man sits up to turn on the radio.  Andy decides he’s just going to drop it.  Curtis was clearly struggling with putting himself out there.  “She’s not too young.  She is legal.”
“Didn’t say anything.”
“Owns her business.”
“You’re offering information that I’m not asking for.”
“You’re judging me.  People see me, and they think I want this bombshell.  All the curves, dripping in sex appeal, but I like that.  Like…doesn’t realize how beautiful she is.  She’s got shit in her life clearly, but she’s taking care of her shit.  That’s awesome.”
“Are you stalking this girl?”
“No!” He shouts in the small car.  His eyes drift outside to the passing trees, and he closes his eyes.  “Doll when she first moved here, before she met Hayden, she worked at this book store.  Doll worked for her.  My sweet little Doll picked me up after a session, and there this bookish faerie was, and Doll said hey to her, wanted to catch up, but she’s always late.”
“The receptionist knows.  She told you that she was going to be late.”
“That is literally our only interaction.  Sometimes she smiles, but you were in there.  She doesn’t smile at me unless I’m the only one in the office.  Now I have to wait until next week,” Andy chuckles, but Curtis pushes his seat all the way, closing his eyes.  “It’s exhausting.”
“What?”
“Therapy.  I know it’s good.  It’s helping.  But it is exhausting afterwards.  I’m drained.  How far does Amy live?”
“Twenty minutes.  She’s a bit of a flight risk.  She’s still into the same shit.  Marshall’s been outside her house watching and waiting,” Curtis lays his arms over his face, trying to make it as dark as he can.  “Why are you going to therapy?”
“I heard my sister die.  I ran away from my problems.  Went into an MC with illegal activities.  Saw people die in front of me.  Saw women, one in particular get abused.  Took too long to do anything.  I wonder what would have happened if I intervened sooner,” Andy looks over at the man that was trying to hide away from the world. A man that he knew had helped a few people over the years.
“She might not have found Hayden if you intervened sooner.”
“Who said I was talking about her?”
“You didn’t have to.  You’re protective of her.”
“Yeah, I failed Jessie.  I won’t fail her,” the men sit in silence as classic rock music plays in the background.  Curtis tries to think of anything but the things he saw in the MC.  Wishing that was all a dream and that he didn’t participate in any of it.  “You really think there’s a kid out there?”
“Yeah.”
He sits his seat up, and turns to look at Andy, “Why wouldn’t mom and dad be contacted?  Wouldn’t…like Jessie died.  They had to have seen she had a child with her medical records, right?”
“Things like this happened.  Social workers are overworked and underpaid. The baby wasn’t with her.  There was no trace of the baby, and…”
“She was forgotten because she was an abused woman that lived in squalor.  Yeah…I thought about that, but she had a family.  Mom and dad didn’t even know to ask about a grandchild.  I…I just didn’t want to think about it.”
“She never told you?  She told you everything.”
“I think that might be why she kept turning away before I could help her.  She didn’t know how I would take her having a kid.  Like I would care.  I could have taken care of that baby, too.  I don’t even know if it’s a boy or girl,” Andy slows down his car, and pulls into a spot beside Marshall.  “Yeah, this looks like someplace a Rumlow would be.”
It was a mess.  They all knew it was going to be worse inside.  Marshall’s thick frame steps out of his car, and slams the door shut.  Almost strutting to the front door while Andy and Curtis try to keep up.  His fist beats on the door, and Amy slings the door wide, “I ain’t buying shit.”
“And we ain’t selling shit.”
Her eyes drift down to the badge on Marshall’s hip, and she starts to close the door, “I didn’t do anything,” Marshall puts his foot in the door, and holds tight to it.  “You even a real cop?  This is illegal.”
“I’m off duty.  We want to talk,” Andy leans in beside Marshall, his eyes drifting into the room.
“Ain’t she dead, Barber?” She gives him a wicked smile, and Marshall pushes in passed her.  “What the fuck?”
“Uncalled for answer, Amy,” Andy walks through the filthy apartment, looking into every room.  
“What the hell are you looking for?” Curtis steps in slowly, and grimaces, refusing to sit down anywhere.  The place smelled like an ashtray.  A cloud of smoke lingered in the room making it feel like he couldn’t see anything.  “Hey Curtis.  Long time no see.”
“Yeah, what was it?  High school when your slutty ass chased me around?”
“Funny.  Offer still stands.”
“Not interested.  What do you know about my sister’s kid?” Amy laughs, and sits down on the couch.  Grabbing up her pack of cigarettes she lights one, shaking her head. “I think you’ve had enough.”
“Yeah, it’s either this or let me smoke some dope.  Kill one habit, pick up another,” she takes a long drag, and sniffles watching as Andy slams down a picture of a baby.  “Going through my bedroom?”
“You don’t have a kid that lives here, who is that?”
“Look at her fucking eyes you creep.  Who do you think it is?” Andy shakes his head, refusing to look at the picture, but Curtis leans down to pick it up.  The baby looked just like his little sister did when she was a baby, except Andy’s eyes.  “You really did a number on her, Barber.”
“I did.  When she came to me she had fucking bruises all over her where your brother manhandled her.  What the hell did I do?”
“According to Jessie, you turned her out.  Used up goods.  Kept her hidden for a month.  Fucked her real good, and let her go when you saw my brother’s number on her phone,” Andy grits his teeth, starting to pace around.  “You gonna deny it?  Accused her of cheating just like Brock.”
“I didn’t,” he looks over at Curtis shaking his head.  “I never accused her.  I told her if she was going to be with me, that he wasn’t to call her.  I kept her hidden, because she was fucking terrified of him. Couldn’t have deliveries to the house.  Had to keep the curtains closed.  Couldn’t be in my car because the windows weren't tinted.  Your asshole brother did that.  Asking him not to contact her isn’t accusing her of cheating.  I was protecting her,” Amy shrugs, leaning back on the couch.
“Who’s the baby?” Marshall looks at her, but she doesn’t answer.  Her gaze is empty as she stares at nothing.  He pushes the coffee table back, and sits on it, getting right in her face, “Who’s baby is that?”
“Hers.  Okay.  That is Jessie’s baby.”
Curtis chokes back his tears, staring at the picture.  You couldn’t tell what the baby was, “Amaris Mae.  Meet your niece.  Your daughter.”
Andy charges towards her, knocking the couch backwards.  “Where is she?”
“Andy!”  “Andy, stop it!”
“You sure you weren’t abusive, Barber?  If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck.”
“Where is she?”  Marshall reaches over, and pulls Andy off of her, while Curtis sets up the couch.  “Where is the child?”
“How the fuck should I know?  Jessie died.”
“Because your brother killed her!” Curtis shouts at her.  “He murdered her.  He died instantly, while my sister suffered.  Where is Amaris?” He gasps after saying the name out loud.  It felt too real.  Jessie had a baby girl, and she was still out there.
“That crying baby was left with me.  I can’t care for no baby.  I took her to mom’s.”
“You didn’t fucking think to take her to her grandparents, her uncle, or her father?” Marshall asks, shaking his head.  “But you’ll take it to your mom and she didn’t even raise you and Brock?”
“She did the best she could.”
“Sure she did.  Where’s your mom now?”
Amy grabs another cigarette, and takes her precious time in lighting it.  Not speaking until after her first inhale, “Prison.”
“What the fuck!” Andy shouts.  “Where’s my daughter?”
“About ten years old?”
“Not how old you crazy bitch.  Where?”
Amy laughs at the three men.  “You know the system.  Caretaker goes to prison.  Child goes to foster care.  Good luck boys.  Can I have my picture back?” Curtis holds the picture next to his chest, before turning to walk out.  “Give me my fucking picture back!  That’s all I have left of her.”
“Yeah,” Marshall says as Andy walks out as well.  “And they lost years with her.  You held her.  You had the chance to do the right thing.  And your strung out self did the worst thing.  They didn’t even know about the baby, and you took that fucking right from them.  Did Brock ever touch the baby?”
“What kind of question is that?”
“The bruises on Jessie Everett’s body were old, and not caused by a wreck.  They were perfect handprint bruises on her arms and legs.  Did he touch that baby girl?”  She glares at him, but shakes her head no.  “How do you know?”
“Because Jessie and I jumped in front of her.  He never touched her because we wouldn’t let him.”
“You cared enough for him not to touch her, but cared so little to do what was right.  What would Jessie have wanted?  Her daughter with your junkie mother or her parents, her brother, or the baby’s dad?”
“They didn’t even know,” she says through a puff, “Maybe she didn’t want them to know.”
“Did you see their faces?” Her eyes roll up to meet him, “You know they were the best option for that baby.  You stole her life away, and time away from them.  We will find that baby.  And you will be held liable for your actions,” she sits up straighter, and shakes her head scared.  “You know what you did Amy.  If anything happens to that little girl, it’s your fault.  Andy’s a lawyer.  I’m a cop.  You’re not getting out of this.”
“They didn’t even know!”
“Have a good evening, Amy.  Don’t leave fucking town again.”

Cautious Part one
TWO MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT
Andy Barber walked into the hospital room, a defeated look on his face, a manila envelope in his hand. He stopped just inside the doorway, taking in the image of his son. Jacob was still comatose, hooked up to machines to help him breathe and keep his systems going. He sighed, shaking his head in sorrow. He missed Jacob's smile, his humor, his laugh.
Laurie couldn't deal with what she had done. She left after spending a couple of weeks in the hospital. The divorce papers were delivered this morning. Andy couldn't bring himself to open them yet. He moved over to the side of Jacob's bed and leaned over to kiss him on the cheek. "Hi buddy." He sat in his usual chair, talking to his only child, willing him to wake up.
You were Jacob's nurse. You came in every day, checking his vitals, changing the IV bags, making sure that he was comfortable. You walked into Jacob's room, distracted by a page you were getting that you missed his dad sitting with him. "Oh, Mr. Barber, I'm sorry. I'll come back."
"No, YN, its ok. I'm early. Please do what you need to do. How is he doing today?"
You checked Jacob's vitals. "He's holding steady." You looked into Andy's sad blue eyes. "I'm sorry I don't have better news."
"It's ok, YN. Thank you for taking care of him."
"It's my pleasure. I try to visit when I have time. I've been reading him this." You hold up your book.
"The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Interesting."
"My niece recommended it. She knew Jacob from school." You chew your bottom lip, nervous about your admission.
"Oh." He looked down. "Tell her thank you."
"I will." You got another page. "I'll be back. See you later Mr. Barber."
"Andy. Call me Andy."
"Ok. Andy." You smiled at him and he smiled back, the first time you had ever seen him smile. It beautiful. You walk out of the room still smiling.
THREE MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT
You are making your rounds on your patients. You hum along with a song in your head and head into Jacob's room. You look to see if Andy is there but he isn't. Slightly disappointed, you check on Jacob, changing out his IV and making sure that he is stable.  You had become friends with Andy, talking every day, getting to know one another. You got to know the real Andy not the one the media likes to portray.
"I brought you a coffee," a voice behind you says, startling you. "Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."
"Its ok Andy. I was just focused on this IV bag connection. Thank you," you took the coffee from his hand. "How was the case today?"
"Pretty easy. Cops mishandled the evidence and my client walked. Joanna was right, I am kinda good at this." Andy smiled. He had taken a job with Joanna Klein's firm instead of going back to the district attorney's office. He helped those he could, hoping for redemption to bring back his son.
"That's great Andy. I'm proud of you." And you are, really. Andy was a good man dealt a horrible hand.
"How was today?" He asked as he sat next to Jacob.
"The physical therapist was here, moving him around so he doesn't get stiff. I think the doctor wanted to talk to you about some of the test results. He should be here in a few minutes." You update the chart.
"Thanks, YN. Reading anything new?"
"We moved on to Harry Potter. I wanted a comfort read."
"Good choice. You can't go wrong with Harry Potter." He sipped his coffee with a smile. "Do you think he can hear us?"
"I like to think so. I like to keep that positive thought." You smile at Jacob. "He looks like a good kid."
"He is the best. He was always positive. Even during everything." You could see a tear forming in Andy's eye. You grabbed a tissue box and handed it to him. "Thanks."
"You know, it's not just the patients we care for on this floor. We care for the family as well. If you need to talk, just let me know." You patted his hand. He grabbed it and brought it to his lips, kissing your knuckles gently. "You are the sweetest. Thank you."
You blushed and had just moved away when the doctors came in. "Hi Andy. We got some updates."
"I'll just step out," you say, walking quickly out but glancing back at Andy, who smiled.
You make it back to the nurse's station and your friend Renee notices your flushed cheeks. "You ok YN?"
"Yeah, just had moment is all." You grabbed the next chart you needed to work on.
"Nothing to do with the handsome worried father in there would it?" Renee said with a twinkle in her eye. You didn't answer, your blush answered for you.
"I got another patient," and you walked away.
FOUR MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT
"You've never been outside of Massachusetts?"
"I've never had a chance. Went from school to school to become the nurse you see today." You smile at Andy. "I've been a busy girl."
"I see that. But if you could, where would you go?"
"First thought, New York. I really want to see a musical or something. Then London."
"Ah, a romantic. I like it," he says with a chuckle.
"A hidden one but yes. My minor in school was English lit. I love to read, obviously but I always wanted to visit the places my heroes were. But the call to help was greater." You leaned against the door frame, enjoying your time with Andy.
"That's sweet." Andy swallowed, unsure if he could say what he wanted to ask. "YN, you never talk about your home life."
"Oh." The statement took you by surprise. "Well, I live alone with my dog, Punkie."
"Punkie? Like the TV Show?"
You blush, "yeah. It was one of my favorites."
Andy throws his head back laughing, his hand on his chest. You huff slightly, annoyed at his laughter. He sees your face and calms down. "Sorry, sweetheart. Its just, you look a little young to have seen Punkie Brewster."
"I watched the re-runs." You finished updating the chart and started to walk out, your feelings hurt. You felt a hand on your arm.
"I'm sorry YN. I didn't mean to insult you or anything." Andy's eyes pleaded with you not to be mad.
"Its ok Andy. I should go." You left the room. You walked pass the station, needing a moment to yourself. You didn't know why Andy's comment hurt you. Yes, you were younger than he was but that didn't mean you were immature. You wiped your face and took a couple of breaths before walking back to the nurse's station.
Renee never missed a beat. "You alright YN?"
"I'm fine Renee. Reality just hit me hard right now."
"Want to talk about it?"
"Just realizing that maybe having a crush is a bad idea." You look at the next chart. "Especially since it's against hospital policy."
"Oh, honey. Andy, right?"
"God Renee I'm so stupid. He sees me as the young kid nurse. And I just realized that I like to spend time with him, but he doesn't see me as anything more." You sigh. "I'm just setting myself up for heartbreak."
"You never know, sweetie." Renee sympathized. "Sometimes you can't help it when you spend so much time with someone."
"Thanks Renee." You walked away to your next patient. You hadn't seen Andy standing close by, having heard everything you said.
He went back into Jacob's room and sat down. Did he think of you as just the nurse? Maybe at the beginning when he had to deal with the divorce. He hadn't told anyone that Laurie relinquished her parental rights and left everything to Andy. It was a comfort to have you talk to him about anything other than real life. He liked getting to know you. He loved that you cared about Jacob so much. He hadn't meant anything by his comment. Now, he didn't know if everything was going to change.
FIVE MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT
You walked into Jacob's room and found Andy asleep in the chair. He had been throwing himself into work since you started to pull away. You didn't want to have your heart broken over a stupid crush. But the sight of him, legs propped up on the edge of Jacob's bed, arms crossed as he slept tugged at your heart. You grabbed a blanket and carefully covered him, protecting him from the cold air that the air conditioning pushed.
You went to check on Jacob. While you worked, you whispered to Jacob, "I wish I knew you. You seem sweet. But you keep fighting. I'll be here every step of the way."
Andy woke up as you were talking to Jacob. Even if things were off between the two of you, you still cared for his son. He watched as you brushed the hair from Jacob's face, almost motherly. You kissed Jacob's forehead and headed out quietly.
Andy realized that he started to fall for the sweet nurse who loved his son.
SIX MONTHS AFTER THE ACCIDENT
You arrived at the nurse's station for your shift. It was early in the morning, and you yawned as you gathered your charts.
"This is for you."
You turned to see Andy with a cup of coffee.
"Thanks Andy. You didn't have to."
"Yes, I did. Do you think you have a moment to talk?"
"Sure, of course." You headed into Jacob's room for some privacy. "What's up?"
"I don't like what happened to us. We were getting close and then you pulled away. I know I upset you when I laughed but I don't understand why you pulled away."
"Andy, I..."
"Look, I know that its probably against some ethical thing but can I take you to lunch?" His eyes were hopeful.
"Andy, if I could, I would. But why? I'm just your son's nurse."
"YN, you are so much more than that. You care about Jacob. I know you talk to him, not just read. I saw you that day, caring for him. You put the blanket on me."
"I care for my patients and their families." You look down, not wanting to admit the feelings that were still there and growing for Andy.
"YN, sweetheart." He put his finger on your chin and gently lifted you head. "You're not alone. I feel something for you too."
"I can't Andy. I could lose my job." A single tear fell. "I'm sorry." You started to turn away.
"Please don't go. YN, please."
"What am I supposed to do Andy?"
"Just tell me I'm not alone in this. Please?"
You looked into his blue eyes. You could see the hope in them, the longing for the answer he knew was there. "You're not alone," you whispered. You pulled yourself away from him and went back to the nurse's station. You tried to calm yourself but nothing worked. Renee saw your face and pulled you aside.
"Honey? What happened?"
"He likes me too. But I can't. The hospital would fire me."
"Oh, sweetie." She wrapped her arms around you and let you cry. You felt your heart break into a million pieces.

Movie Night Attempts
(Hey! Thanks for all the love for the idea of a flash family web toon! I decided to try and write the ideas. I do not own DC or the characters. Hope you all like it. Sorry if this is bad! Have a great day/night!)
“You know this isn’t going to work, right?” Joan wondered. 
Jay shook his head. “We have to try.”
“You make it sound like we’re fighting a battle.” Max laughed. 
“Maybe because you have never seen Ace and Bart argue about movies before.” Barry said. “It’s awful.” 
“I heard that!” Two voices called from the living room. 
The four of them left the kitchen and went to the living room where the entire “flash” family were waiting for them. 
This should be fun. 
_______
Attempt #1 
Jay put a stop to the arguing by picking a movie. 
He picked a science fiction film on Bart’s list of “movies I have to see from this time!!!!” Science fiction was also Wallace’s favorite type of movie. 
Both became quiet. 
Jay put it in and the beginning music started to play when sirens started sounding. 
The family—that could—rushed into costume and, after a quick goodbye to the civilians of the family, rushed off to see what the problem was. 
Impulse and Kid Flash forgot their feud in the name of making fun of Condiment King before the second Flash rushed him back to Gotham. 
Attempt # 2 
They got to the end of the beginning credits when there was a knock on the door. 
Before anyone could stop her, Irey rushed to the door. 
In her mind, she didn’t really care about the movie, so she’ll answer the door. 
She threw the door open. 
“Iris.” Wally said, coming up to her. “What have we told you about answering the door—“
Wally paused when he saw who was at the door.
A person with silver hair and dark eyes stood awkwardly at the door. 
“Hi? My name’s Jess Chambers. I’m from another earth.” 
Explaining all of that was…new. Jess, who uses they/them pronouns, explained that they fell into a portal. They’re 15 years old and they have super speed. Linda had turned off the movie to give Jess everyone’s attention. 
“Oh! You’re like Princess Andy.”Jai pointed out, making Jess pause. 
Well, pause for a speedster second. 
“What do you mean?” 
“She’s 15, too.”
“Okay?” 
“Welcome to this earth.” Is all Wally could really say. 
Attempt # 10
By this time, Jess really understood what it meant to be in the flash family. 
They had stopped some rogues from robbing a bank, then helped a Green Lantern (who Wally couldn’t stop arguing with) fight a man in yellow, then members of Earth's JSA came and needed advice on the speed force. 
By the time everyone came back, it was nearing eight o’clock at night. 
“It is the weekend. I suppose everyone can stay up a little later. If everyone wants to?” Linda wonders. 
Immediately, two very happy twins rush to the couch at human speed. 
Everyone gets comfortable and Max promises Jess quietly to help them adjust to this Earth as the movie starts. 
They get 30 minutes in before everyone is sleeping. 
Jess’ last thought while being awake was “I could get used to this.”

Sorority, Day 85, Part 4
Tumblr media
Ellie: Hi Bela... yeah, we're both settled in... well, whenever there's a toga, we'll have to invite you.
Tumblr media
Jess: Hey Sadie.
Sadie: Hey yourself!
Tumblr media
Sadie: Hi Gretchen. It's lovely to meet the girl who's stolen my little brother's heart.
Tumblr media
Sadie: How is it, being a Frat boy?
Jess: It's cool. It'd be cooler if Robbie hadn't been there before me...
Sadie: Do you think he's going to go to jail?
Jess: Hopefully. I would say I can't believe he'd be that awful to Harleigh, but I can. He's always had a cruel streak, hasn't he?
Sadie: Yeah... anyway, let's not talk about him anymore.
Tumblr media
Jess: So are you dating Clover? Or Ellie? Or both?
Sadie: Both, but Ellie's my girlfriend.
Jess: How does that work?
Sadie: Ellie and I are in a relationship, but we can also date Clover, but no one else. Clover can date whoever she wants. We had a big heart-to-heart last semester and sorted it all out, and so far, so good.
Tumblr media
Sadie: I'm sorry I've been neglecting you whilst I've had my own shit going on.
Jess: You haven't been negle-
Sadie: I have.
Jess: Well, if you have, I've been neglecting you too. I guess... when we moved in with Andy and Georgia, our world opened up massively, and then even more so when we came to college. We need each other less now. But we're still brother and sister.
Sadie: You've always been the sibling I've been closest to. I never want that to change.
Tumblr media
Jess: I bet a lot of the shit you've had going on is the same shit as me, anyway.
Sadie: You never got locked in the hut all night.
Jess: No... but Robbie locked me in there "for a laugh" when I was about three and stood outside laughing his head off whilst I was screaming blue murder until October came and let me out and punched Robbie in the face...
Sadie: I'd forgotten about that.
Jess: I hadn't. That's part of the reason I can totally believe Robbie lying to Harleigh and scaring her and manipulating her. Our family is pretty fucked up, Sadie.
Sadie: Yeah... I don't want to stay that way, though. Sometimes... sometimes I wonder if anyone would notice if I just disappeared. Ellie's helping me not to feel that way.
Jess: Well I'd notice. Don't disappear on me, Sadie. You're my sister and I love you. I need you.
Sadie decided it was time to stop thinking wistfully about how she and Jess used to be closer, and time to do something about it.

mr.whites daughter Chapter 4- a mistake
your pov
It was 3 when I realized I missed my dads appointment. I forgot to take my phone off silent. I rubbed my face as a voice chimed in.
"Waiting for someone?" He asked, I looked up from my phone which sat on the bar and looked at the man sitting in front of me.
"Just missed my dads appointment where i would've been able to see if his cancer was shrinking or growing." I sighed,"what can I get you?"
"My body just won best bike at sturgus, wanted to get a round of shots and see if you join us for one maybe." He smirked.
"I don't drink on the job, but can gladly get you those shots. How much and what?" I put my phone in my back pocket.
"One shot ain't gonna hurt a women like you." He smiled,"5 shots of Jack, put it on The Lansom tab, I'll go get my guys."
He got up and I watch him leave to the pool table and start talking to three guys, I turned around and grabbed five shot glasses and out them on the bar, they walked over as I grabbed the bottle of Jack.
"Whose the winner?" I asked with a smile.
"That'll me be me." A bigger man said, they all seemed decently young, in their 30s.
"Free shot on the house for you then." I filled a shot glass up and slid it to him, he took it, gave me a cheers and a wink and downed it. He out the glass back and I filled them all Back up again. I put the bottle bavk on the rack and Andy came over to talk.
"The ketter tab is closed." He whispered,"Fuckin assholes."
"What they do?"
"Couple of drunk ass Baffons." He rolled his eyes and walked away. I grabbed the shot glass on the end of the line and we all picked one up.
"To the winner of best bike." I put my glass up.
"For the honor." One said and I giggled.
"To the honor." The youngest said.
"If you can't cum in here!" The one I talked to said.
"Co on her!" The winner boomed and we clinked and shot them back. I gathered all the shots and put them towards the sink.
"Need anything else while you're here?"
"Me and the boys are good for now." He smiled, I walked away and out the five shots on the lansom tab.
"Put two Jack and cokes on the Renalds tab." He said and Pat my shoulder.
"Cool if I take five minutes?" I asked and he nodded. I walked out from Behind the bar and to the back exit, grabbing my cigarette packet as I pushed the door open.
I walked away from the door and I put my cigarette between my lips, shuffling my lighter out of the packet, I lit it, put my lighter back, and put them back in my pocket.i held the cigarette in my fingers as I grabbed my phone out, I turned it off silent and listened to the voicemails.
Mom:
Hey sweetheart, we're all here. Im guessing you couldn't get the time, that's okay. I'll tell you what happens.
Marie:
(y/n) where are you? I haven't seen you in awhile was hoping you'd show up, well we'll um...I'll call and tell you the news.
And then a few other random ones just about where I was, hank sent one, so did junior, and so did dad.
Dad:
Got the report back, it's shrinking! Haha, look we're gonna have a small party at 3:30 if you can come. Everyone Would love to see you.
I flipped my phone back and put it in my pocket, taking a drag from my cigarette. I shook my head, knowing I should go but, I didn't want to. It was more of the fact that I didn't want friends and family to see me like this. I saw Rena walk down the ally to the employee back entrance.
"How bad is it in there?" She asked.
"Bikers taking back road from sturgus, you saw the parking lot." She groaned and reached into her purse.
"Want a line?" She offered as he held up the bag of white power.
"You know it."
Jesses pov-
Jane and I fucked and then we got my new bed set up in the bedroom. She was looking at all of my old drawings.
"Kanga-man?" She asked.
"Ya he's half kangaroo and half man." I chuckled.
"And whose this?" She pointed to Joey.
"That's Joey, his side kick, he sits in that pouch and helps him fight crime." I took a drag.
"So kanga-man is a she?" She looked at me,"only female kangaroos have pouches."
"I was a kid when I made these." I laughed,"it was like 4 years ago."
She flipped through some of the pages and giggled.
"These are all you."
"No they're not."
"Ya, they all look like you." She fixed her position and laid against the wall and me,"I wonder what I shrink would say if saw these."
"Yo you're tellin me you never wanted a super power?"I smiled, sitting up to look at her better. She smiled back at me as someone started knocking at the door. We listened for a few seconds.
"Is that your door, or mine?" She asked and listened for. A few seconds and then jumped out of bed,"that's mine."
She threw her pants on as I got outta bed and put mine on as well.
"Wait!" I walked after her as she went through the back door,"Jane!" She uncooked her door and went in.
I walked down the hall and to the front door and heard her open it and start talking. A few seconds after I opened the door.
"That's your dad?" I asked rubbing the back of my head.
"Dad this is the guy who lives next door." She looked at me,"wanna come inside?"
"Sure." He said.
"Nice seeing you." She walked into the house.
"Nice to meet you." He followed behind her and closed tye door.
"What the fuck was that?" I whispered to myself as I went back into my apartment. I heard my phone ringing in my room so I walked down the hall and back it. I grabbed it off the bed and sat down and answered it, I didn't even check who it was.
"Yo." The other line stayed silent so I checked who it was,"(y/n)? Hey (y/n)!"
"Look guys, it's fine. I was just working the middle day shift." I heard her say and I heard other voices,"I have to go, I've got a family get together." I heard her car door close.
"(y/n)! Yo what's goin on?"
"I fucked up." She said and I heard her car engine start,"I knew shouldn't have and I did and now-now-"
"Yo yo what happened? Where are you going?" I asked.
"I don't know, somewhere far from the bar." She was talking quick,"Pretty sure one of the assholes I was serving out something into the shot I poured and took with them." I heard her car tires screech.
"Don't drive (y/n), aight, yo just park somewhere busy and imma come to get you." I got off my bed.
"I didn't even mean to call you." I heard her voice break,"I was just-just trying to get them to leave me alone but they followed me out the bar, and-and- fuck!"
"Pull over and calm down, where are you?!" I rushed out of my room and grabbed my keys from the counter, she didn't respond,"where are you?"
"The Mobil ya station and car wash by the bar." I knew where she worked and I knew it was a half hour from her house so I didn't want her driving there.
"Aight, look, I'm on my way. Do not leave ur car (y/n), don't Fuckin leave it." I closed and locked my door and ran down the stairs,"I'm on my way, imma send badg to get your car okay?"
"Okay." I could tell she was crying,"okay okay."
"Aight? I'm on my way, I'll be there soon."
I made it there in 20 minutes, I pulled into the gas station and saw her car by the tire fill up station. I pulled over to her and got out quick, she did too. I walked around the back of my car and she ran over to me and hugged me, she was shaking like hell.
"Hey hey it's okay." I held her tightly,"it's okay, aight? I'm right here." Her hands had my shirt balled up into them and I had one hand behind her head. Her face was burried into my neck.
"I'm so Fuckin stupid." She whispered.
"Yo No you're not."
A few minutes later I got her into the car and saw badger and skinny pull up as I pulled out. (y/n) kept her keys in the car, they were gonna bring it to her apartment. I looked over at her, her mascara was smudge under her eyes, her lips were red from cryin. I wasn't gonna leave her alone, I had no clue was she was slipped and I don't even think she did. I could see she was shaking, so my guess was Molly or something.
"Bring me to my apartment." She whispered.
"Hell no." I shook my head as I pulled up to a red light.
"Jesse." I looked over at her,"just bring me to my apartment."
"Like I said, hell no." I pressed on the gas snd started driving as the light turned green,"look whatever they gave you...look I'm not leavin you alone, you're gonna sleep it off at my place."
"I'm supposed to be at my dads cancer free party right now, I missed his appointment to se the results. I full on told them I would be there." I reached over with my right hand and grabbed her hand that sat on her thigh.
"That doesnt matter right now, okay?" I turned left, following the same route I took to get her,"what's important is making sure you're okay."
"Why are you being nice?" I glanced over at her"I've been a Dick to you for the past few days, why are you doing this?"
"Because you can't take what an addict says to heart yo." I shrugged my shoulder,"trust me, I know."
She ended up falling asleep by the time we got to my crib. I got out of the car and went to the passenger side, i unbuckled the seat belt and picked her up making sure to not hit her head on the way out. I carrying her like men do at the end of those movies where they have a wedding so I guess I was carrying her bridal style?
She was lighter then usual, that scared me. I was scared for her. I unlocked the door and pushed it open and closed it with my foot and saw Jane sitting on one of the chairs in the living room.
"Whose that?" She asked standing Ik as I walked last her.
"My best friend." I walked down the hall and to my bedroom.
"What happened to her?" I put (y/n) down on my side of the bed. I unzipped her boots and took them off and threw the blanket her her.
"She got drugged at work." I looked over at her.
"Wow." She answered. And I sat down if the end of the bed,"she gonna be okay?"
"I'm hopin." I rubbed my face,"what was that earlier?"
"What do you mean?" She leaned on the door way.
"The whole I don't know you thing."
"I wasn't gonna be like,'hey dad, this is the stoner guy who lives next door who I'm sleeping with.'" She crossed her arms.
"Is that what you think this is?" I motioned at her and I,"just sleepin together?" I did have feelings for Jane, trust me I did, but (y/n)...she was my Fuckin soul mate.
"Jess." She said stood up off the frame,"I'm not gonna tell him that I'm seeing you, do you know how mad he'd be?"
"So?"
"I'm not trying to ruin or hurt my relationship with him." She shook her head,"what do you think she was slipped?"
"She shaking, Her jaw was trembling like she was cold..."
"So Molly?" I nodded,"she um...this happen before?"
"She's never been drugged, not that I know of." Jane nodded,"she's...she's had a rough few days."
"Seems like it." I held my head in my hands,"you're guilty about something, arent you?"
"She relapsed and I called her a junkie whore." I admitted.
"Wow." She whispered.
"Mmm." I nodded.
"Is she the person you based the healer off of?" I looked up at her,"drawing has the same Hand tattoo she has."
"Ya." I rubbed the back of my neck,"i um...drew that after we broke up, she went to college."
"You use to date her?" She sat down next to me,"was she the one who came to ur door the first night you moved in? I saw someone out there from my window."
"Ya." I nodded.
"Im gonna go get a makeup wipe or two from my place and clean her eyes up, massacre after it's been wet with tears is a bitch to wake up to." She laughed lightly.
"Jane.." she stood up.
"Girls have to support girls, weather or not they dated your boyfriend. Plus, she seems like my type of gal." She winked at me and my brows furrowed and she whispered,"might steal her."
"Just go get the makeup wipe." With that she walked out. I laid down on the bed and looked over at (y/n).
I heard my front door open and it didn't close but I heard Jane's open and close. Within a few minutes, my door closed and I heard her walk back.
"I'm getting her out of the jacket." She stated walking around the bed,"come on, hold her up for me." And so I did, I moved further up on the bed, and held her uo my her waist as Jane took off her jacket and out it next to her. I laid her back down as she opened the the blue packet of makeup wipes.
"Come on, tell me about her." I watched as she gently rubbed the wipe with her index finger under and over her eyes lightly.
"She's um...she smart as fuck. Her dads a chemist, she definitely got his smarts." I rolled onto my stomach,"she went to college for pharmaceutical chemistry."
"That's interesting." She smiled.
"Then she dropped out just last year." She nodded, using a clean part of the wipe to get the black tear stains on her cheek,"she's the oldest child, her brother is...16? I think, her parents had her before they got married."
"Best people come out of wedlock." She joked.
"She's wicked on the guitar." I laughed,"like it's insane, I don't know if she still plays but she use to play for our band in high school with our other guitarist. We were called Twaüghthämmer." She stopped wiping the makeup and moved her shirt a bit, looking at her shoulder.
"How do you think she got that?" There was a large, red and black bruise on her shoulder, obviously new but definitely from something painful,"looks like she was shoved into something."
"We haven't talked in a few days." Her phone rang from her jacket, so I dug into the pocket and looked at the caller.
"Who is it?" She resumed taking off her mascara.
"Her mom." I put it on her jacket as the ringer quieted sending it to voicemail,"she's supposed to be at a family get together, something about her dads cancer."
"Geez." She whispered,"can't blame her for relapsing with news like that."
"Ya." I nodded.
"She hit her temple? Her lip is busted."
"We ran into some not kind dudes a day or two before her relapse." She hummed.
"You have a type Jesse." She pointed out.
"Ya I guess I do."I chuckled.
She finished wiping away the mascara the way she could with (y/n) being asleep and she sat on the edge of the bed.
"You're worried about her,huh?" I nodded,"she know?"
"Yeah, she um...she doesn't care."
"If she didn't care she wouldn't have called you to come get her."
"She only called me because, well I was the first contact she saw. She's been dodging my calls." I rested my head on my arms as she stared at (y/n), my brows furrowed as she leaned down,"what?"
"Does she use herion?" She asked and looked at me,"cause she had track marks on her arm."
"Are you serious?" I sat up, she held her arm to me and I could see 3 small bruises from the needle,"Jesus. She's-shes been hanging out with some guys, ya know random guys, I thought...fuck man."
