heartache, and other aches
parings: melissa schemmenti x fem!reader
summary: working on the furthest side of Abbott meant you avoided the cameras a lot. especially when you would always have everything you need in your classroom. but the inevitable day came when you needed to journey to the teachers lounge.
warnings: language, smut, teasing, praise kink, mommy kink, fingering, cunnilings, aftercare, fluff at the end
a/n: the way i didnt know if there was just gonna be smut or more but the lawd made her path🙏 (once again if you see mispells shhh i did proof but i mightbe missed somethings)
Tumblr media
How could you have been so careless?! You avoided that hall all year. All. Year. Now towards the end you have to find Ava for a student file to write your report.
It was her lunch time you knew that much. Which is why you expexted her to be in her office. Eating her lunch like every other time you’ve crossed her.
Carefully to not be in any camera, you made your way into the teacher’s lounge. Relieved when nobody but a few background teachers were in there.
“Oh hey y/n! Weird seeing you here,” Ava came in with a smile. “Looking for something?”
“Well I hava a report and I needed the folder from your office but couldn’t find you.” You puffed out while taking a seat. “And it’s even weirder that you’re in here without the others?”
And it was like a sixth sense, because you didn’t end your conversation you just left and just missed the camera crew. Listening to the laughter of the few teachers in there.
“One day they’ll catch her.” Jacob,laughed while walking in. “Has she ever really walked in here?”
Ava shrugged and went back to her lunch. Meanwhile Melissa and Barb walked in together.
“I’m serious Barb, even though were on the older side, we should try working out just once! There’s this nice, quiet gym not too far,” the red head was determined. “I read it was really friendly and neighborhood owned.”
“Oh I know that gym!” Ava quipped. Catching both the woman’s attention. “Yeah its really nice, a lot of the teachers around here tend to go to the more known gyms, but that one is friendly.”
“See!” Melissa beamed.
Barb contiplated the thought. Only to shake her head once more. “I’m too old to dry and lift weights,” she sighed.
Melissa scoffed. But before she could say anything Jacob spoke up. “Ya know, if you’re looking for a gym partner you could go ask y/n. She goes there daily.”
“Y/n?” Melissa became puzzled. Who were you?
Ava nodded. “Yeah, she’s really good and fit. Fine as hell too! She’s in room 216.”
“That’s on the other side of the school though?” Barbra furrowed her brows. Not understanding how there’s a teacher she’s never met.
The two shrug and left at the sound of the bell. “216 is where she can be found. No cameras though, or she’ll never let you in.”
The woman looked at each other, lost on the whole conversation. But then Barb smiled. “Seems like you have a gym buddy, which means I dont have to be!” She beamed. Taking her seat before the other teachers come in along with the camera crew.
Meanwhile, on the otherside of the school, Jacob and Ava came barging in. Disrupting your speech before you let your kids off to lunch and ‘study hall’(which was really them in the library in the furthest corner)
“Alright, now I don’t want another email from other teachers of you guys almost starting a fight. You’re the oldest ones in this building, act like it. Now go, be free for an hour. When you get back we’re gonna vote for our last book of the year.” You dismissed. Watching as they all scattered.
“You’re gonna thank us!” Jacob smiled hoping into your bean bag chair. You and Ava followed over.
“I may have found you that gym buddy you always wanted,” Ava filled you in quickly. “And she’s your type.”
Your eyes widened. “Absolutely not! I can work out if I know she’s watching me!” You shook your head. “I appreciate it but when I said I wanted a gym buddy I meant more so someone who already goes to the same gym. Like, I don’t know…”
“You needed a little push! You are never going to act on that crush hidden in this well decorated and cozy and well stocked classroom,” the two agreed. “Just give it a chance, who knows, maybe she won’t even come ask you!”
Just then there was a knock on your door. All three heads snapped to see the red head in question.
You were the first to look away. Wishing to be swallowed into a hole in the moment. “Can you two excuse us?” You whispered to them, ignoring their smiles. They nodded and scrambled away. “What can I do for you Ms. Schemmenti?”
“I’m sorry…I was just looking for Y/n?” She apologized. You only softly laughed. Making her realize, you were the one she was told about. But you look like you could barely hurt a fly. Your braids were almost perfectly done, your body fit your clothes in ways that nobody else’s could, but most of all, you didn’t look like you hit the gym everyday. “Really?”
“I was told I should be expecting you, but I didn’t think I’d get the honor so soon.” You moved to put papers around on the desk. “So, what do I owe the visit?”
“I’ve never once seen you on school grounds before.” She was still trying to process you. “I thought room 216 was Nancy’s class?”
“Mrs. Freeman left last year, Ava knew of me and gave me the spot. Said she’d keep it on the ‘DL’ for me.” You recapped the day she had texted you.
“And how close are you with Ava?”
“Close enough to be constantly invited out with her and never able to say no. She has this thing for trying to set me up with any woman who looks my way,” you could only chuckle at the antics.
Melissa lit up like a christmas tree at the mention. You? Woman? You can’t be real!
You retreated to your desk. Folding you hands and resting your head on them. A silence taking over the room. One you didn’t like. “Why’d you come here?”
She took a hesitant step closer. “I…I wanted to ask you about the gym you go to?” You nodded lightly for her to conintue. “Do you by chance want a work out buddy? Because I know I’m old but it-,”
“You’re not old?” You cut her off. Shaking you head with furrowed brows. “And I’d be more than happy to have you accompany me, but just know I go a bit late. I’ll pick you up later, how does that sound?”
Melissa was at a loss for words, so she shook her head and went on her way. Instantly coming back in to write down her number and address. A deep blush covering her face and chest.
You however, kept your face neutral. Trying to hide the overwhelming excitement that flooded your bones.
Once she was gone you could only kick your feet and silently scream.
~~~~~~~~
It was late. Almost considerably too late. You text Melissa at 7 saying be ready by 8:30. And you however, didn’t know she lived on the further side of the city. So by 9:30 you had arrived. Ringing her doorbell.
The door opened, and she didn’t look pleased with your timing. “You’re an hour late.”
“You failed to mention you lived closer to Mrs. Howard.” You frowned. She let you in, signaling for you to wait in the kitchen.
“And you know where Barbra lives? None of us have even ever seen you, so how would you know?” She raised a brow. Making a water bottle for herself.
You blushed at how you knew. “It may have been a one night stand over here. And one morning before work I saw her leaving. She leaves so early.”
Melissa scoffed. A feeing of jealousy bubbled in her. “You? A one night stand? I highly doubt it!”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” You folded your arms. Suddenly feeing agitated. “You don’t think I have it in me?”
“No! I really don’t. I mean look at you. You look like you could pass as a librarian with how small and cute you are. You hardly look like you drink.” She turned. Resting agaisnt the counter.
She was challenging you and you both knew it. But you wouldn’t back down from this. “Really? Thats what I appear to you? A fragile librarian?”
“Nothing short of one. I’m surprised you even have a gym membership.” She shurgged. “Don’t worry angel, its ok to be a librarian.”
Angel. “We’re on nicknames already?” You quirked a brow. You attempted to ignore the blush that heavily took over your face.
“I guess we are. So it seems you have to give me one. Its only fair.” She beamed. Straightening up once you started to walk forward. You had this look in your eyes that she couldn’t decipher.
Soon enough you had her between yourself and the counter she once rested on. Her breathing picked up slightly. How could you have this effect?
You leaned in close to her ear. Biting on her lobe before humming. “I’ll have to think…what about…mommy?” You smiled pulling away to look in her eyes.
They were darker than before and just as she inched closer to connect your lips, you pulled back. Pushing off her and walking towards the door.
“Gym gets empty in an hour, it’ll be perfect timing.” You acted as if nothing happened. As if you didn’t just flirt heavily with her.
“How far is the gym?” Melissa tried to recollect herself.
You beamed, “only twenty minutes away. But, you picked someone who’s been going to the same gym since freshman year.”
Her green eyes widened. “What’s that supposed to mean?!” She followed you out.
You both got in the car and you just smiled at her. Starting the drive while humming along to the music.
And the night was the start of many. But every single night after, you would go home to take the worlds coldest showers. You were always down for her. Hands always on her, and you said it was just spotting. You never went more than a fether light touch.
But your eyes had a mind of their own. They would stare at her. Her ever curve. The way her workout clothes hugged and did her justice. How her hair was tied up until she would shake it out and then flash you a smile. Throwing a wink in as well.
“Schemmenti, better be careful before I start making moves on you.” You would joke.
“And who says I don’t want you to do that? Wouldnt you like to be mommy’s?” Was always her reply. Knowing that the words made you flush.
But she never knew you would go home to your bed. Hand between your legs while you played out many fantasies with her.
Always imaging it was her fingers knuckle deep. Aways her edging you till tears. Always her praising you. Always a good girl for mommy she would whisper in your ear as she pounded into you.
Or if it was you in the cold shower with her warm body behind you. Her hand tracing tight circles in a fast pattern till you were shaking in her arms. A whisper of you’re ok, mommy’s here. I got you.
Maybe it was the one of you and her at the empty gym. You would catch her staring at you while you took off your sweatshirt. Crimson covering your face as you looked away. Her soft hand would cup your face a smirk on her face. Mommy’s pretty play thing would fall from her mouth.
Or worse. Somehow and someway she would drop by unexpectedly while you moaned her name. You wouldnt even make it to your bed. Youd be sprawled out on the couch in the sweatshirt she once gave you when some guys checked you out. Whimpers and pleads for her to come finish you. She would chuckle mommy’s dirty girl. Couldn’t even make it to your room.
“Y/n? Girl who is taking up that mind of yours?” Ava walked in your class. She had caught you staring looking so stressed out at your papers. “Is it that gym buddy?” She teased. Laughing loudly when your let your head fall and nod.
“Ava, it’s a curse I swear!” You whined. Rolling your head to watch her sit on the rolly chair and come close. “It’s literally every night at this point. I’m in heat or whatever constantly and nothing is soothing it. I even tried a one night stand with some random lady at a bar and it didn’t work! I just…she’s making me feel like there is nothing but her to fix it.”
“Ok, then have sex with her!” Ava chirped. Her smile was different though. You knew that smile. That was the smile of mischief.
You picked you head up when you registered it. “Ava what did you do?”
She snorted as there was a knock at your door. “Gave you the boost you needed.” She wiggled her brows before you looked at the door.
Melissa stood there. Smirking at everything you said. “I’m out before it gets sweaty, this lace ain’t cut out for that!”
She rushed passed mummbling something to Melissa before looking at you. She flipped her hair and walked out.
You couldnt move. The redness on your face began to infect your chest. And it wasn’t any help that you wore a cami with a cradigan today.
Melissa walked in, closing the door behind her, you missed when she locked it. “So…” Her voice was low. “Is it true?”
You couldn’t look at her. You were beyond embarrassed. You opened your mouth but shut it almost instantly.
“Look at me baby,” she hummed. You couldn’t tell if this was real or not. Your breathing was quick. You had to be in a dream. “Angel. I won’t ask again.”
On that you turned you head. Thinking the blush couldnt deepen until you felt fire. She was right there. So close.
Her index finger was under your chin, making you look up at her. “Every night?”
A quiet whimper left your throat. It was so quiet. You thought you would be safe seeing as your heart beat was louder.
“Every night.” She said again with the devil’s grin. “I’ll see you tonight for the gym angel, wear something cute ok?”
You could’ve died right there. You gave her a dazed nod. Lips parting as she walked away.
But as her hand made the lock, you couldn’t contain yourself. You moved quicker than your chair falling to the ground. The sudden noise making Melissa turn to find you already behind her.
You, with no thought behind your eyes, grabbed her face and pulled her into a kiss. It was seering for you. It was what you wanted. What you needed to further everything you’ve ever thought of.
Every dirty thought about her suddenly felt possible. It was now a maybe that you could have this woman. All you wanted was this woman.
It was what you needed to let out that needy whimper for her. The noise wasn’t even close to embarrassing you. You knew you would be a mess for her. And the noises that would come from you were what she needed.
Melissa kissed you back, maybe not as intense, but certainly telling you she wanted it too. But the moment that beautiful noise you let out made its way to her ears, she couldn’t take it. She broke away first.
Her eyes slowly opened before yours. You still were in your own world. Even while your eyes were open. She could see the fuzziness in those blown pupils.
“I’ll see you later angel, be good for me will ya’?” She pecked your cheek before leaving you.
Tears pricked at your eyes. You needed her desperately and didn’t know if you could make it till that late. But you wanted to be her good girl, so even if it made you ache, you would hold off.
That’s exactly what happened though. Your body ached and your lips longed for her. Her soft touch caressing you in ways you couldn’t think were possible. Her green eyes staring down at you as you came undone from just another kiss. How her teeth would shine when she smiles at you again. How her teeth would feel with her nibbling at your heated skin.
You couldn’t pull it together. You knew you couldn’t. You had to see her again. It’s how you found your way to her class room. You never went in though.
What if you come off too needy? What if she gets repulsed by it? How badly you need her though. Her soft touch would make you fall apart almost instantly.
Your thoughts got the better of you and you broke into a sweat. Feeling suddenly too hot to even breathe.
You knew you weren’t gonna make it. You wanted to try. You had only two hours left. How bad could that be?
~~~~~~~~~~~
Terrible. Thats how it was. Not only did you get flirtatious text every ten minutes, but your students had noticed your sudden ansy behavior. Your leg was constantly bouncing, you had hardly taught them anything, barely looked up to see what they were doing. You just couldn’t break your eyes away from the papers.
“Ms. y/l/n?” One student called. Getting a distant hum from you. “Are you ok? You lookin’ mad flushed…”
“Yeah, I’m fine. Um our book for the rest of the year. Do you guys really want to do it?” You glamced around at them all. Everyone was agreeing no. “Right, ok, so what if we didn’t then? What if I told you your last project is a presentation on whatever you want?”
They all seemed to enjoy that idea so much more. “Why the sudden change?” A girl poked.
You shrugged. “You’re not gonna learn anything from a book. So the book presentation will be changed to what you want. Just somehow connect it to what weve learned. You can start now, or the rest of the day is yours!” You had a small smile watching them move around.
That was how your day ended. A loud class and shaky legs.
The first moment they were all gone, was the same one as you locking the door and crumbling onto the ground.
The ache between your legs was excruciating. You needed a relief and you needed it soon or you might actually die.
Your hand gripped at your stomach. It felt tense. Too tense. You were so focused on trying to pull yourself together, you missed the knock on your door. Also the rattling of the door knob.
Tears began to stream down your face. How could one woman not touch you and make you feel so much?
“Y/n! Hun, are you ok?” You could hear the worried voice of Melissa next to you. Her hand delicately falling on your back. The contact made you cry out. Trying to get away from the pain. “Angel, what’s wrong?”
You shook your head. Grabbing on the side of a desk and standing up. “N..Nothing. I’m ok!” You tried. Eyes glancing to Ava who was confused. But once she saw your eyes, she knew exactly what was wrong.
“Just text me if you need anything!” She winked before closing the door and rushing away.
Melissa stared at you as you tried to collect your bags. “Y/n?” You kept in your own world. “Y/n, please talk to me.”
You turned and looked at her. Staring in her eyes with the widest pupil’s she’s ever seen. “I…you’re…” You couldnt get any of it out. So you kissed her. Not like earlier. Not with the heat you had been feeling. No. This was more simple. Careful. Meaningful.
“Oh…” She hummed once you pulled back. “I see…”
You frowned. There was something that told you, you weren’t getting that relief so easily. It pained you again that more tears sprang from your eyes.
“Please,” you whispered out. Choking on a quiet sob. “I..I can’t handle it. I’ll be good but please Mel. It hurts,” you could only whisper these words.
She held you cheek, her thumb wiping away the tears. She kissed the top of your head. “Lets go home then? I’ll cook you dinner, how does that sound?”
You had a glisten in your eye. She said home. As if you already were her’s. You hugged her tightly, burrying you head into her neck.
“I know princess,” She had a smile in her words. “Lets go home.”
You two left hand in hand out the building. Never once letting go (except for putting your bags down).
Melissa opened the door for you, “Make yourself cozy on the couch baby, I’ll bring you over clothes to change into.”
You furrowed your brows. You didn’t leave clothes here? But when Melissa handed you the sweatshirt, and only the sweatshirt, you lit up at her.
Pulling all your clothes off right there and covering yourself in her. Hugging yourself tightly and smelling the fabric.
“Come on baby, come keep me company while I cook yeah?” She held out her hand. Beaming once you took it.
She could sense you felt better. And you were. All her attention was yours. You were glowing in it.
Melissa lifted you up onto the counter. Standing between your legs and placing a soft kiss to your lips.
You watched her cook while sipping on a glass if juice. You weren’t that big of a drinker, which came as no surprise to you fiery red head.
She had assumed so too, and last night when Ava texted her the plan, she had to go buy you apple juice (Ava mentioned it was your favorite).
Once she finished she handed you the plate and stayed between your legs. Both of you ate off of the same plate while talking.
Melissa, however, could only focus on how cute you looked. Sitting here in her sweatshirt, in her home. Most of all, it was the look in your eyes any time you got to put a fork full of pasta in her mouth. Had she fallen deeper than she thought?
“Melly?” You frowned. You had asked a question and she just stared at you. Almost smitten by something.
She leaned forward, kissing you all over your face with care. Placing a final one to your lips. “I’m sorry angel, what’d you say?”
“I asked howd you learned to cook so fast?” You cheesed. The kisses making up for the lack of undivided attention.
“I grew up with it. It’s a family thing I guess.” She answered. Her eyes falling to the plate that was empty. “Let’s get cleaned up?”
You nodded your head and hopped down the counter. Getting ready to wash the plate until you were stopped. “Baby, you’re at home, relax.”
She did it again. The home thing. You couldn’t understand it, but the feeling it was making you feel. Warm and fuzzy.
Melissa tried to push you to the couch, which was her having to lead you the entire way. She tried to leave you alone. Yet you didn’t want to be away from her. You grabbed her hand and pulled her down to you. Kissing her lips hungrily.
She tried to hide her excitement for what would happen, but she wanted to see you wait longer. “Soon pretty girl,” She said into the kiss.
You grew upset at that. “I’ve been good! I can’t wait any longer!” You fussed. “You’re not being fair.”
She laughed at that. Not a soft chuckle, a full laugh. One that actually made you feel a bit embarrassed at this childish behavior. “You are such a needy thing. But I have to clean up dinner before we do anything.” Her hand rested on your chest. Feeling the drumming of your heart.
You grabbed at her wrist. Slowly teasing yourself as you pushed it to run down you body. Letting her cup you heat. Feeling how soaked you were.
A moan leaving you as she took control and added pressure. “Please!” You damn near screamed. Your eyes glossed over. “I need you! I can’t wait!”
She kissed your neck. Once. Twice. Then sunk her teeth into your pulse point. Listening to your body as you bucked into her hand. Trying to get yourself off on it.
“Be careful baby, if I start now I don’t know if we’ll make it to school tomorrow.” She smirked at you. “Or do you want me to wreck this pretty pussy?”
You nodded your head eagerly. “Yes! God! Yes!” You shook. Was it cause you were cold? Or was it you were that in need? The answer was definitely the latter. Your body felt on fire. It was too hot in this sweatshirt but you didn’t want to take it off.
Her lips found yours. Her hand wrapping your legs around her. Where she lifted you up. The gym really did begin to pay off. “Then who am I to deny you?”
She walked you all the way to her bed. Gently setting you on the edge while she knelt at the end. Kissing in your thighs and over your waistband.
Her index fingers hooked between the band and your skin, she dreadfully slow pulled them down. Down your thighs. Down your calfs. Onto the floor.
The fabric was almost instantly replaced with her mouth. She wasn’t going to waste a single second.
“God, angel, you taste so good. And you’re so wet. All this for me?” She licked you up. Wanting ever drop you would give her.
The feeling brought you right to the edge. You’d been longing for so long. “Melly…”
“You’re so sensitive baby, go ahead.” She granted. Feeling how you hand held her close while you rode out your high. She smiled once you let up.
You were panting for her. Shaking already. “What do you want from me angel? What can-,” you pulled her close. Hugging onto her while your hips grinded against her still.
Your lips ghosted over her ear. Your warm breath sending shivers over her. “Want mommy to ruin me.” You hummed.
She never thought you would say that name in this situation. She truly thought you two were joking about the name.
When she looked into your eyes, hers turned to a forest green almost. She had to give you everything. Had to keep you.
“Get comfortable then my princess. Mommy’s gonna make sure you can’t remember anything but the feelings.” She pushed you up further on the bed.
Her jeans brushed over your naked half. Making you realize how much clothing she had on compared to you.
“Melly…” You called for her attention. Immediately getting her eyes on you, making you smile. “Your clothes.”
You pulled at her shirt. Desperate to see her supple skin. “Why don’t you do the honors then?”
No second was given before you were sitting up. Hands at the hem of her shirt. Fingers dancing under as you pushed it up. Revealing the sight you desired. Your eyes snapped up to hers. Not wanting to be disrespectful (even though she had just eaten you out).
“You’re beautiful…” You kissed her. All of the heat and need you felt was gone. This was raw emotions.
This was you.
And Melissa knew that. Its what made her falter from her spot.
How could someone as young as you think that about her? You had so many options and here you were.
She knew she had fallen in love. But she would wait to tell you that.
“Let me make you feel good,” you climbed on top of her lap. Kissing from her lips, to her jaw, and down her neck. Leaving only one bruise on her pulse point.
Her moans and airy gasp fueled you to keep going. She needed this just as much as you did.
Your hands pushed her back. Now she laid and gave you better access to her collar bone. Were you left more hickeys. She would be in sweatshirts for at least a week.
“Baby…” her breathy voice was almost begging.
You lifted up, looking in her eyes. “What do you need mommy?” You smiled that charming smile.
She bucked her hips up at the name, listening to you laugh. “I need you my pretty girl. Touch me in ways you’ve dreamt ok? Can you be my good girl and do that?”
You couldn’t lie, as much as you wanted her to take you, this was better. This was something you didn’t know you wanted.
Your left hand caressed her boob, making her arch into your touch. Giving you the chance to unclasp the bra. Freeing her chest from the restraints.
You pulled it off and connected your mouth to her right boob. Your hand playing with the other. You couldn’t help put graze your teeth over her sensitive bud.
You switched shortly after. Her moans spurring you on in ways you never knew. “Just like that baby. Such a good girl for mommy,” she moaned. Her words pulling a moan from you as well.
You began to drop your kisses lower. Taking time to acknowledge her body. Hands running around, trying to memorize everything.
You kissed along the waistband of her jeans. Your eyes looking up to hers, finding them already looking at you.
You shifted to slot a thigh between hers. Pressing it against her core hard. Watching her arch into it.
She knew you had done this before, but she never expected you to be so good at knowing where to hit.
“Your jeans mommy,” you left sensual kisses behind her ear. “They’re restricting.”
She didn’t answer, no, instead she fumbled with the buttons and zipper. Letting you assist her in getting them off and on the floor. You had her completely at you mercy. This was becoming better and better.
You met her cute pink panties. Smirking at the little bow it had. “Mommy, you’re soaked.” You eyes shined in the dim lighting. “Can I?”
Her hips bucked, “Of course princess, but hurry!”
And hurry you did. You dived right in. Your tongue working wonders on her bundle of nerves. You worked her up quickly with just one muscle. Dipping down to her hole and feeling it clenching around nothing. You teased her like you knew would have you pinned.
“Just like that baby! Mommy’s so close!” Melissa panted. Her hips snapping to meet your movement. “Right there! Fuck! Don’t stop!”
But you did. You did stop. You pulled away and waited for her response. Her head rolled to look at you. Her mouth opening to yell, scream, all because you denied her. Yet it fell open when you slammed three fingers in easily. You felt her walls flutter around you. Smirking at how you had her.
You had the Melissa Schemmenti coming undone on your fingers.
You kissed at her neck. Guiding her through the high and trying to ignore the ache you felt once again.
She sat up and pulled you into a kiss. “Mommy’s good girl.” She whispered. Listening to the whimper that left you. She hummed at the noise. “Is someone all needy again?”
You nodded with a sad face. Grabbing her hand and guiding it to where you wanted it. Gasping once she didn’t even hesitate to slipping three fingers into you. You shuddered and held onto her shoulders.
“Go on, since you wanna be the top so bad. Ride mommy’s fingers. Fuck yourself until you forget about all the woman in the past. The ones that will never fuck you like how I will.” She said against your ear. Feeling you start to bounce in her hands.
“Just like that baby. Look at you!”
“I bet you wont ever whore yourself out to anyone again.”
“You’re so perfect.”
“Mommy’s pretty girl.”
Her words hit you hard. They did things to your mind that connected to your core. “Mommy…I’m-,”
“I know you are angel. Go ahead. Mommy wants to feel you cum.” You started to become sloppy. Shaking when she curled her fingers to hit you right. Making you fall apart in her arms. Gripping onto her shoulders for some form of grounding.
You hide your burning cheeks in her neck. Giving almost non exsisting kisses to her skin.
And after a moment, she slowly pulled out her fingers. Hushing the nosies that left you. “I know, I know baby. But mommy’s not done with you yet.”
Your eyes grew at those words. What else had she planned on.
Carefully, Melissa laid you down and moved to her drawers. “Don’t move or you’ll ruin the surpirse baby.” You couldn’t see her. But you weren’t alone for long. She had you above her again. Hovering over her lap. “How are you feeling y/n?”
She could see the lost mindset you were in. Was she going to far with this? Your eyes were trained between you both.
“It’s big…” you could only swallow. “Will it hurt?”
“Only for a minute baby. We can take it slow, ok? Or we can stop here.” She gave you options.
You were silent. “What if…I don’t want to go slow? What if…I want it to be quick and painful?” You looked at her. She was clearly shocked. “Or! we can, I mean we don’t!”
You got cut of by the loudest moan of your life. She bottomed out in you in one quick movement. You felt the burn. The stretch.
She wasn’t one to let you go shy on her now. Melissa wanted to watch you loose your senses. It’s how you ended on your back as she pounded into you.
The red head showed absolutely no mercy for you. She wanted to overstimulate you.
Her thumb was added to your clit. She was moving fast. Faster than you would’ve ever thought possible. But god did it feel amazing.
Melissa seemed to know your body more than you. She brought you through several orgasms in such a quick manner. Making you loose all verbal responses and just noises.
You didn’t know bow many you were on but you felt wiped. Too sensitive. You quickly came, and as she fucked you through it, you could tell she was gonna push you for another. But you thought couldn’t take another.
You tapped on her hand, hopinf she would let up, but she didn’t. She just laughed. “One more baby. You’re doing so good for me. Such a sweet girl. Letting mommy fuck you like this. You can give me on more right? After that we’ll get you all cleaned up. Be a good girl for me and cum, princess.” She talked you through it. Staring intently as you shook under her. “That’s it pretty girl. You’re ok. Mommy’s here.”
She took the chance while you were blissed out to pull out and discard of the fake appendage. Scooping you into her arms and holding you tightly as you cried in her arms.
They were happy tears. “I know, I’m sorry baby. You did so well. So incredibly well. I can’t even believe the feelings you feel right now. You’re mommy’s good girl. Her sweet girl. Her princess. Imma move is to the bathroom ok? We’ll take a nice warm bubble bath.”
~~~~~~~
That morning you woke up in someone else’s bed. You rolled to look at the side clock. It was well into the day now. You missed work, andnit would’ve made you worried if there wasn’t a certain woman walking in with a bag of food.
“Good morning sunshine,” She was quiet. Last night rushed back to you in a flash. “How do you feel?”
You sat up and could only smile with sleep. “Did you call Ava?” Was your first question.
“She was the one who had the subs covered the moment we left yesterday. I brought you your favorite.” She held up the bag.
You furrowed your brows. “But that’s all the way across thw city?”
“I know, but my special girl deserved it.” She sat down with you and started placing the food on the covers.
“Wait! The sheets are covered in…” You were worried. You weren’t one to let good food be touched like that.
“I changed them last night. You fell asleep in the tub and I took it as a chance. I promise they’re all clean.” She winked at you.
You looked at her with a blank stare. She was about to ask you ‘what’ but you brought her close and kissed her with care.
“Thank you Melly,” you whispered out.
She hummed. “Of course angel, you’re at home, you might as well be treated like a queen.”
“You did it again.”
“What?”
“Home?”
“Yeah?”
“You keep saying this is my home?”
“Cause it is?”
“No, this is yours?”
“Y/n, have you not gotten it yet?”
“Gotten what?”
“I’ll explain it simply for you ok? I, a older woman whose been through divorce, know what I want. Now you, a younger woman who still has so much to learn, have not been through divorce. But, I, the older woman, am going to keep you for as long as you let me. You’re my good girl, and no matter what, you always will have this place to be home.”
Tears pricked you eyes. Nobody has ever done such a thing for you. Even if she was right, you didn’t know what you wanted. But you wanted her. You wanted a future with her.
You kissed her hard with emotion. Soon hugging her and burrying your head into her neck. “Thank you Melly.”
“Of course, angel. Now eat before your food gets cold.” She detangled you from her.
Both if you smiled at each other. You knew you were in love with this woman, it’s just a matter of time.

I love your headcanons! They’re so goofy but character accurate. Anyway I was wondering if you’d maybe do all the greasers + Cherry with a trad goth/alt s/o hcs? Thank you so much!!! 🖤🖤🖤
omg hiiii and your wish is my command‼️🥰
the greasers (+cherry baby) w trad goth / alt s/o!!
ponyboy: - the second you moved into town he was like obsessed - just cause your vibe wasn’t like anyone else’s he’d really met - so he worked up the nerve to talk to you thinking you’d like shun him (bro was fr going thru ALL the possible rejection that could happen😭) - he was like “…hi🖐️😀” and just stood there sweatin up a storm LMAO - and you’re just like “hello?🧍‍♀️” - LOVE CONNECTION INSTANT - yall are the sweetest together and pony’s wardrobe changes a little so it’s more like yours - just cause he loves the way it looks on you sm.
johnny: - your vibe fits his (and dally’s but that’s later🤫) really well - so when he first saw you his exact thoughts were like “man. she’s cool” - so my guy went thru all of ponyboys yearbooks like just trying to find out anything and everything abt you - clubs, sports, music, voted most likely to’s…you name it johnny found it cause he was too scared to approach you at first - pony walked in on him scavenging last years yearbook and was like 😐 this has gotta end my boy - so after some aggressive encouragement from dally, johnny approached you and you guys really hit it off - you guys are like the gangs power couple FOR SURE - everyone loves your style and vibe but johnny especially, duh!
sodapop: - this is definitely an opposites attract sitch - like johnny he saw you and was like “i gotta find out more” cause he had never dated anyone like you before - he probably went up to talk to you and accidentally spilled about how he knew you were in middle school band and played the clarinet but switched to the flute halfway thru seventh grade or smth😭😭🫶 - yall definitely turn heads when you guys are hanging out together - no one can deny the cuteness😔🖐️
darry: -my guy is a little more conservative when it comes to style - we know he be dressing like a divorced dad out here - BUT he noticed you around town and was def intrigued - totally starts listening to the music you like just to have a conversation starter - this boy PLANS - after a while of you guys dating you give him a lil makeover and it’s very sweet (especially cause he needed the wardrobe refresh🫢)
dally: - your vibe and his is super similar, or at least he thinks he’s as effortlessly cool as you🙄 - anyways he was fr like “now this is the kinda person i wanna know” - didn’t need any encouragement to go talk to you *cough* johnny *cough* - either way he tried to start up a convo all “smooth” or whatever and you’re just like “😳uhm anyways…” - kinda gave him the humbling he needs but you thought his unrealized awkwardness was cute - you guys are birds of a feather but he definitely loves showing you off to his friends - just cause he thinks you’re like, actually the coolest - he won’t tell you how he feels but it’s obvious.
two-bit: - this guy is so goofy - sees you from across the room and starts cracking the LOUDEST and DUMBEST jokes just to see you hopefully smile - and he’s funny so you’re like halfway cringing but also halfway dying laughing - you’re probably like “who even is this kid💀” LMAO - anyways after he saw you laugh my dude just talks your ear off - after you get a few words in about your interests and general style bro was so obsessed - he didn’t really think he’d like a girl with your style but he was wronggg - you guys have probably the most fun together out of the group ngl.
steve: - probably heard abt you from soda - LIVES for your outfits like he’s so obsessed he’s like “hmm i wonder what they’re gonna wear today” - just cause he thinks you’re so cool and unique - definitely frequents the places you usually hang out just in the hopes of “casually” running into you LMAO - you guys are super cute though like no one really expected it - which makes it so much better.
cherry: - being a cheerleader she doesn’t usually date people with your style - her exes just are kinda basic - BUT she saw you and was like “oh. so i’m like in love” - HOPELESS ROMANTIC CHERRY🫶😭 - it was like a rom com she like did an actual double take - after you guys start dating you two do everything together - you give her makeovers like all the time - it’s so sweeeeet - plus you kinda revamp her wardrobe - dw she still has THE cherry valance vibe - but she matches your outfits in the little details - matching rings, necklaces, skirts, shoes, anything.
thanks so much to the wonderful person who requested this!! my requests are always open!🧌🥰🫶

listen okay
been thinking about Oscar's characters and what they're like as dads
Spoke very briefly with @writefightandflightclub about this, months ago (can't even find the post it was that long ago - I'll link it later if I do - FOUND IT)
Poe Dameron is a girl dad
Santiago Garcia is a girl dad (see here)
Steven Grant is a girl dad
And Marc Spector and Jake Lockley
(Jake especially)
But Nathan Bateman
Nathan Bateman oozes boy dad
Because, right:
Nathan created Ava and has the mindset that girls are scary
(And Luna pointed out that he'd be wary after that having a girl after 'the incident' and I agree)
Seems like the kind of guy to say 'first time, guaranteed' after sex, when you both agree to start trying
(he was right, it was)
(you still don't know how he did it)
Anyways, you both have a boy
He needed to find out at your anomaly scan because he hasn't been able to control one single thing during this pregnancy and he hates it
So he voted he found out the gender
Makes you put on classical music for "the foetus" (Nathan's words) because he seems like that type of guy
Not that he doubts the kid'll be a genius, but it can't hurt
When your son is here, Nathan would be a mess
It was one thing knowing you were pregnant, seeing the bump and ultrasounds and all
But now there's an actual kid
A kid that is fully reliant on him
Nathan probably wouldn't sleep for weeks
Just sit and works and watches the kid, make sure he's breathing
He'd mellow out eventually, when you'd told him he needed sleep and can't keep doing this to himself
You took over the night shift after that, mostly
He isn't the kind of dad to rough house
But one that you'll catch talking out coding issues to an infant who just stares at Nathan, just because of the sound of his voice
Your son would look nothing like you, and take everything after Nathan (he's super smug about it too - not only can he make literal lifelike robots, but he has 'superior genes' too)
Would want to call the boy something unique like Silas, or Atlas, something along those lines
You had veto'd them very quickly
But Silas grew on you, so I can imagine you agreed to a unique name
Once your son was old enough, he'd definitely teach him how to box
Since Nathan's sleep schedule is fucked (he's working on it), he's always up first with the kid
You'll always find them on the decking at the punching bag
Nathan was always guiding him, praising him when your son eventually punched the bag
You and Nathan both regularly went out on hikes (he enjoyed them more than you did) even before the kid
When the kid was born, it was easy to carry him around in a carrier on your chests
But when he got older and learned to walk, he never wanted to be carried
And the hikes took longer
So now Nathan's planned out new family friendly routes for you all, where you'll all be out for an hour, tops, and not far from the house
Nathan really hates mess, so will probably follow the kid around once he starts walking, just picking up after him
If he's stressed or hungover (he's working on that too) he would probably yell at you to sort it out
He'd apologise later after you chewed him out, even offering to do bath time and get the kid ready for bed
"I'll read him a story or some shit"
(It's probably Stephen Hawking)
He'd arrange someone to decorate the kids bedroom to look like space or something
You had a field day looking around the IKEA website and choosing what you wanted for your son's dream bedroom, but Nathan had just rolled his eyes and got the more expensive, designer, equivalent and it was delivered within a week
You'd told him off for doing it, but he just shrugged at you wordlessly as he set up the bedroom for your son
This is long enough, I'm gonna stop here, but now I want to write a full series of dad!Nathan 😭😭😭

Hi there! If requests are still open, would it be alright if I requested HC’s for D.Va, Mei, Sombra, and Mercy with an S/O who’s a writer?
Thank you!! You rock! Keep up the amazing work!
Writer S/O Headcanons - D.Va, Mercy, Mei & Sombra
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Genre: fluff!
Pairing: D.Va x gn! reader, Mercy x gn! reader, Mei x gn! reader, Sombra x gn! reader
CW: mostly fluff, some canon/implied canon things (we love our doctor/science women), i'm horrible at writing sombra (sorry)
been a while since i did an OW request, haven't touched the game since the beginning of Dec since i don't play for a team rn & hate the direction the game is going :( but i love the characters so its a dilemma lol anyway enjoy!!!
(also!!! i am once again bothering you guys to vote in this poll if you haven't already. your input matters to me vv much & would love to hear about what you want for our valentines event this year!)
Tumblr media
D.Va:
literally your biggest fan
she always supports your writing no matter what & definitely shares it on her stream
will probably just game while you’re writing 
she gets loud sometimes but she tries her best to stay quiet so you can focus
does her best to read your writing but she has such a short attention span she just can’t sometimes
will write little hearts and stars on her favorite passages in your writing 
brings you lots of snacks and drinks!! makes sure you’re always hydrated and that you don’t work too long
honestly probably gets really distracting sometimes
like reading your writing over your shoulder or tapping her nails on the desk really loudly
“Hana…”
“sorry,” she’ll say sheepishly. “you just have me on the edge of my seat.”
Mercy:
your proofreader/beta reader
she LOVES to read so you know she’ll pick up anything you write and devour it
will lay on the couch with you after work while you write and listen to the taps of your laptop 
“hey, Ang, do you know the word? like the one—the word for—ugh”
“luminescent.”
you’re not sure how she does it but she always manages to read your mind & know exactly what word you’re looking for
also super helpful when you have random medical questions
she’ll break down exactly how you treat a stab wound in a dingy motel for you without batting an eyelash
queen of overworking so she won’t judge you too harshly if you work all night 
but will definitely be there to chastise you with a glass of water in one hand and some plain toast in the other 
Mei:
literally the sweetest ever
always tells you how amazing your work is & recommends it to all her friends
working in the science field she’s always reading scientific journals so your work is a breath of fresh air 
she’ll have a glass of rosé and settle down with your book after a long day
NEVER critiques your work because she thinks you’re the best ever 
probably annotates it with her thoughts while reading it and voices her excitement about it 
asks you a million questions about your work and nods along while you give long winded explanations 
cooks you yummy food & brings you 5 spice hot chocolate to keep your energy up 
snuggled up to you on the couch and listens to you think outloud 
Sombra:
absolute best research buddy
you open your mouth to ask her a writing question and she already has it pulled up in four different browsers 
thoroughly explains everything to you too
through her work she knows a lot about violence and other things
so she’s always willing to answer questions—especially spy + stealth related things 
if anyone ever tries to criticize your work online she’ll literally doxx them
probably hasn’t read much of your work but she makes it up for it in undying support 
you could be writing about murdering a public official and she’d support it 
lets you sit at her desk with her while she works and hums soft songs to you
Tumblr media
(if you enjoy content like this, interactions go a long way! comments, likes & rbs are always greatly appreciated ^-^ !!)

Tumblr media
2000
You were solving a crossword puzzle and sitting there, drinking a milkshake. You had no idea what you were going to do with your life, not even if you were going to go to college or what to study.
Especially because you didn't want to draw attention to your little secret and you didn't want to go to the place where Charles Xavier had told you, you almost threw the card in the trash. You were confident that you could live with your powers and without any help; that's how you've been surviving the last few years.
You turned around, and there was that guy again. At first, you thought it was a coincidence, but since that week you were sure he was following you, could it be a student from that school for the "gifted"?
You didn't care; it was time to face him and make him leave you alone once and for all, or you would use your powers if necessary.
“You! “you exclaimed, getting up from your seat. This guy has already exhausted your patience.
"Hello!" Brock didn't even flinch.
“What do you want?" You asked; you weren't going to beat around the bush; you wanted answers, and you wanted them right then.
“I beg your pardon."
“I wasn't born yesterday; I know you've been following me; it's not a coincidence to find you where I'm going."
“S.H.I.E.L.D. is interested in you," he said, without changing his expression.
“S.H.I.E.L.D.? Another weird organization, please if I told that professor that I wasn't interested, much less in this “you turned around to leave; maybe you would have to go to another city, but Brock stopped you; he wouldn't let you go until you listened to him.
Tumblr media
2004
What you had said was spontaneous; at no time had you thought of confessing your feelings to Brock, but that mission had changed everything.
“So... "
“Shut up." You pulled him to you and kissed him.
You had never thought you would find love in S.H.I.E.L.D.
Tumblr media
2011
“What's wrong? “you asked your boyfriend after you had made your way through all the commotion of agents.
“I don't know, but this is not normal," Brock answered, trying to see something that made sense.
“They say they found Captain America," Jack commented when he got to where you were.
“His corpse, I guess," you said. It was more than impossible for it to be otherwise; after so long, you were already beginning to imagine what would happen in the following days when they gave the news.
"Alive!" Jack answered confidently.
“Alive? “ You and Brock repeated it in unison; you couldn't believe it, and you couldn't think of any way it could happen.
Tumblr media
After five joint STRIKE team missions with Steve, you were sure that if they had one more with Rogers, you would throw him overboard or anything to never see him again in your life.
You had kind of lost track of what they were talking about for the next mission; maybe you could get away in a way?
“Maybe Y/N and I can be a team?"
“My team is Brock," you interrupted him. No way were you planning on having a mission alone with him; you were more likely to leave him locked up in one of the safe houses and go off alone to complete the mission. “And maybe I'm sick for that mission," you muttered so softly that Brock barely heard you and smiled.
Tumblr media
2013
Brock and Steve began to argue that the mission had been a fiasco in the end.
You were starting to get a headache; this was going to end very badly. There was no way you could hide what had happened to Fury.
You were trying to analyze step by step what happened to understand what had been the mistake and the reason for the failure, but everything was so confusing and diffuse, but you were sure you could find the exact moment; you just had to make a little effort and with the help of your powers, so they could know how to present the report or make it up.
Brock and Steve kept arguing; maybe a little help wouldn't hurt. You saw one of the buckets that was full of water. You gave it a little push with your powers, but it caused most of the water to fall on Rogers.
Several members of the team had to leave immediately because they couldn't hold their laughter. Even though Brock figured you had caused that "incident," he didn't say anything to you. The look on Steve's face was worth it, but on the other hand, Steve thought it was a freak accident.
Of course, you would never tell him that you were responsible, let alone all the powers you had.
Tumblr media
2014
Confusion.
You were running aimlessly through the Triskelion; the only thing you could think and do was to look for Brock. You needed to know that the man you loved was okay and that he would tell you that everything Rogers had told you was a lie, that he was jealous of him, and that he wanted to separate them.
You were walking up the stairs, in and out of the floors; Brock wasn't answering his cell phone; thousands of thoughts were going through your mind; you saw this Sam running past you to the upper floors; what if...
What if...?
You didn't know how long you had been like this, but finally, on one of the floors, you found him. Although what you saw seemed to confirm what you were fearing, you needed to know the motives. What if he had lied about loving you?
“Brock? “ You called out to him as you stood in front of him.
“Brock had stopped, but he still seemed to be in a hurry.
“No, you lied to me, you..."
Now that you understood all the strange behaviors your husband had had in the last few months, you didn't know what to say. At that moment, you weren't even sure you wanted an explanation; you even hoped it was a bad dream or maybe some hallucination created by some enemy.
“As soon as this is all over, I will explain," he assured you and continued on his way.
You were not sure that you were going to see each other again; maybe it was the last time you would see each other. You had to pick up the pieces of your broken heart and run away at that moment.
You knew what was going to happen; you would be questioned, but even though you were not aware of what Brock had done or what he had planned, you were seeing someone very different from the one you had known; in fact, he now seemed like a complete stranger.
You started running in the opposite direction; you would go far away; you weren't going to give Brock the surprise you had planned either; he would never know he was going to be a father, but you wouldn't let Rogers and company catch you; the only thing that was your priority now was to keep you and your baby safe; you would go to X Mansion to ask for asylum; you knew they would help any mutant in need.
You could no longer say you loved Brock.

Why does Courtney remain on Alejandro’s side in WT, even after her elimination?
Bridgette and Leshawna, the other two who appear as puppets in ‘This Is How We Will End It’ resent Alejandro after the cause of their eliminations. So does everyone else.
Except for Courtney, who even after KNOWING of Alejandro’s schemes, and that he used her, STILL, at her own free will, sides with him.
Now yes Lindsay sides with him too, but 1) She would likely want to be on the non-Heather side anyway 2) She was one of the few people Alejandro has not caused the elimination of, so she doesn’t hold beef against him.
So why does Courtney stay?
It has to do with her desperate need of control.
Courtney has always controlled people of tried to, to benefit herself. In that sense she relates to Alejandro and sees him as just and the good guy. Especially compared to Heather.
In Courtney’s mind, this behavior is right, and she is NEVER to blame for the bad stuff that happens to her.
But ironically it’s this behavior that she pushes away opportunities for relationships.
She even says so in an Action confessional, telling a story about how a classmate walked out on her and yet she won anyway:
“You want something done, you do it yourself.”
The only characters she ever considers friends throughout the WHOLE SHOW are Duncan and Gwen. Even then, even though she cared about them, (emphasis on the past tense in this sentence) she chose the win over them and used them.
When she dated Duncan, her goal was to change him into a male counterpart of her, and she considered the effort to be ‘love.’
I said it before, I do believe she genuinely loved Duncan in her mind, but that doesn’t excuse her actions, it just explains it.
Then even before the love triangle even happened, Courtney’s only concern of Gwen is whether or not she’d be risky competition to take to the finals. She even asks, “How do you think they’ll make us turn on each other?” Or something on the lines of that.
As though that is her only concern.
In that same episode where she asks this, she reveals her plans to change Duncan still, revealing she has learned nothing.
When writing a negative character arc, the character often doesn’t learn a lesson that makes them better.
In fact Courtney and Gwen’s friendship is solely circumstantial. They’re the only non-simps, non-crazy, non-Heather people on their team. So they have to work together and get along. Then in All Stars their friendships is basically: “We share the same awful ex boyfriend. Ha ha.”
But of course, in Courtney’s POV, she becomes the one who was always in the right.
Duncan and Gwen both betray her, PERSONALLY. Of course she’d be out for blood.
The only people she ever became friends with go behind her back and disregard her feelings.
This is another Britney Reed. It’s further proof that Courtney is far better off alone.
Only when she’s in control and the ONLY one in control, will there be peace in the world.
And in the end of her run on the show, it’s the only thing she cares about.
So why let Alejandro use her?
Well… she doesn’t.
If you really look into it, Courtney only helps Alejandro at her OWN WILL.
Unlike Bridgette and Leshawna, who only needed seduction, Courtney was already trying to kill Gwen and sabotage her team BEFORE Alejandro even tried to convince her.
In Episode 16, he tries to convince her only for HER to say she’s trying to do things herself.
She doesn’t need Alejandro to screw her over.
And actually, Alejandro does NOT even plan to ditch Courtney in episode 20. They vote Blaineley. It’s only proof in Courtney’s mind that Alejandro is not only her only ally who will listen to her, but also the definitive example of what a winner looks like.
So even after she loses, she thrusts the conversation of eliminated characters helping the finalists, so she can take matters into her own hands on how the game plays out.
This is HER being the one in control of the victor she deems best suited.
Looking into her character arc more, you learn more the more you think about it.

I vote "I really, really want to kiss you right now" with shigadabi!
Prompt: "I really, really want to kiss you right now."
Rolling with the League of Villains is... strange. Strange because he hasn't really been around other people so consistently for the past few years, strange because they're being bankrolled by the biggest fucking supervillain in Japan's history, strange because all of the League members are a bunch of fucking freaks. The lineup is lizard Stain cosplayer, teenage vampire yandere, man with psyche literally held together by a paper bag, magician, woman with over forty attempted murders on her record, and a man who's held together with fucking staples and revenge. Yeah, he's including himself in the list of freaks. He's not delusional. 
And of course, there's also Shigaraki. 
Way grosser in person. That's what he'd said. Had been the fastest thing he could think of when he'd met eyes the color of blood and had gotten distracted from his revenge for the first time in years. Pretty red eyes. The severed hands were gross though. The way that he fucking listened to whatever All For One and Kurogiri said were pretty gross. Maybe he's projecting a little too much of his own baggage, but he never really likes it when anyone looks at a father-figure as an absolute source of authority. And maybe Shigaraki is gross. He's having a hard time remembering that right now. When they've all been drinking in the bar. Started off as just one, just blowing off steam after working on a job for the past few weeks, but it had gotten a little out of control when one of Twice's contradictions landed him in a drinking contest against Magne. She demolished him. Toga had followed up saying that she bet she could take Spinner and Compress. The older had protested, said she was too young to drink like that, she'd thrown a knife at him and he'd sighed heavily and let the other two go. Spinner had faired about as well as Twice had. 
It had been around then that Twice and Spinner came whining to him to save the guys' dignity. He'd told them to fuck off, wasn't about to try to drink someone that much heartier than him, and someone so much younger, under the table. Especially not when he'd only had a couple and they were already well into their cups. Besides, he didn't need to show them how badly his quirk reacted to excessive alcohol. Didn't need them to see that just a few shots could have him swaying in half an hour and the heightened metabolism would have him hung over in another. That he drinks slowly for a reason and drinks for the taste rather than the effects. There's good reason Kurogiri only shares the good stuff with him, Compress, and Shigaraki. 
Who, of course, had been the next target to try and take down the ladies. But Shigaraki had scoffed, told them that he wasn't about to get drunk over something so stupid, especially not with all of them crammed into the small room together. Especially, especially not when they were crammed in together and nearly everyone else was already swaying. Been living together with him, Toga, and Kurogiri for two months now, has only ever seen him wearing his gloves very early in the morning, right when he gets up. Hasn't ever seen him destroy anything he didn't mean to, but still. He'd been a little pleased that their fearless leader had decided that they were all useful enough that he didn't want to risk killing them in a drunken accident. Not that Shigaraki is drunk. Drinks slower than him. Wonders if his meticulous control is why he does it. Means that he has to watch him for a while out of the corner of his eye if he wants to see him take a drink. Likes to see when he tips the last of his cup back and swallow, neck a long pale line, littered with scars and scratches. Pretty too. Really wants to sink his teeth into it. 
Finishes his drink too because he really needs to stop thinking about Shigaraki like that. Likes having a place to act as a temporary home, likes having allies to help clear his path, likes being alive for the most part as he plots his revenge and if Duster catches wind of his stupid little crush then he's going to live up to his nickname. Kurogiri left them all to their own devices a few hours ago. Spinner and Twice are passed out across the armchair and couch. Compress left to go back to whatever haunt he calls home once they'd gone down. Toga and Magne are bored with them and seem to be planning to go out for the remainder of the night. 
"Don't get caught," Shigaraki tells them mildly, but makes no move to stop them. 
"Kay-kay, Tomu." Dabi snorts, Toga is definitely drunk, but Magne still seems fine, should be able to keep an eye on their youngest just fine. They leave and then it's just him and Shigaraki. 
He reaches for the bottle and pours himself another two fingers before offering the bottle to his boss. Shigaraki takes it, pours the same amount into his glass and then stands. "Come on," 
Dabi blinks, definitely a little foggy himself. Knows it'll fade in twenty minutes if he finishes this drink before then. Could wait it out for a few minutes and let his head clear more, but he's not swaying, not slurring, just feels a little distant. Preferred level of intoxicated really, just enough to make the ever-present ache of his scars feel a little far away. Grabs his glass and follows Duster out of the room. 
They make their way up to the roof. The night air is pleasantly cool against his skin and he lets out a breath. Didn't realize the alcohol had crept his temperature so fucking high. But when he exhales, his breath steams in the air. Absolutely not cold enough for that and Duster catches it. 
"You always go so hot when you drink?" 
No. Definitely a combination of being too relaxed having somewhere safe to be, the alcohol, and being around Shigaraki himself. "Depends on what I'm drinking." He says instead. They move over to the ledge and Shigaraki sits with his legs hanging over the edge. Dabi follows him. Wonders how close he's allowed to sit. Wants to sit with their shoulders pressed together. Figures he really, really shouldn't. Fucking. Didn't know bratty supervillains with mops of pale hair were his type. Thinks his type might actually be 'could kill me in a split second' but he doesn't want to think about that too hard. Sits with a foot of space between them. 
It's nice up here. The sky is clear tonight and while they can't see any stars, Kamino is a big city, sparking with night life all around them. The glow of he city reflects off Shigaraki's pale skin, bleaches his hair white, the slash over his eye and lips are stark against his skin, and make him look like a ghost. A demon, maybe, with those red, red eyes. Something ethereal and dangerous. Takes another sip from his glass and watching his lips part for the drink has him going a little hotter. His skin has a strange texture, hasn't ever gotten to touch him, wants to, like his quirk is slowly shattering him too. Wonders if he would feel broken too if he ever got to put his own ruined mouth against his. 
That's a stupid and dangerous line of thought to entertain and he shifts his attention. "Why're we up here, boss?" Hopes he sounds uninterested as he brings his glass back to his lips, forces himself to stop looking. 
"Been staring at me all night, figured you had something you wanted to say. Figured this would be be more private than staying downstairs where one of the others might wake up." 
Shit. That fucking obvious, huh? Really didn't mean to be. Glad he has a second as he takes a drink to try and figure out something to say. It's a fucking travesty that he doesn't. That instead of saying literally anything else, he ends up mumbling, "I really, really want to kiss you right now." Instead of anything intelligible. 
Silence stretches between them for a few seconds. Yeah. Well. He should probably be moving really fucking quickly. Is definitely well within arm's reach. Doesn't move though, because if Shigaraki doesn't dust him he's probably going to just have to set himself on fire and then jump off the roof to escape this. Absolutely never going to live this down when he's not even drunk. Shigaraki sets his glass to the side before he turns to him. Doesn't know what to do now that he has those ruby red eyes on him. Is really expecting to die though. Really isn't expecting for Shigaraki to say,
"Okay,"
And more silence to stretch between them as Dabi's brain short-circuits. He waits. Waits for the other man to laugh, to mock him, to kill him. But Shigaraki is just watching him. Cool. Considering. Doesn't move another inch. Dabi doesn't move either. Feels like this horrible pause is going to keep going on forever. 
"Well?" 
He sounds a little strangled when he finally finds his voice, "You... want me to?" 
"I'm curious and if it doesn't work out," he sounds completely disinterested as he goes on, "It's late and we can pretend we were drunk in the morning." Shigaraki reaches for his glass and takes it out of his hand. Dabi tries to get with the fucking program. Okay. Not going to die probably if he tries this. Duster's even trying to give him an excuse if this goes fucking terribly. Fine. Feels his contrary side rearing up sharply. Won't let it go terribly then. 
His skin is still a little too warm as he reaches out and curls a hand around the back of Shigaraki's neck. The other man lets him pull him in. Does his best to lower his temperature a bit more before he takes a small breath as he's leaning in. Shigaraki's mouth is still so cool against his. He... doesn't push. Thinks that this is probably too chaste given who they are, but he doesn't try to deepen it. It's just a firm press of their lips against each other. Their lips are dry and he can feel the scar running over Duster's, wonders if he can feel the seam running through his bottom lip as well. Only lasts a few seconds because Dabi is pretty sure that if he doesn't stop now, he's never going to want to. Pulls back a little. Has red eyes on his again, still considering. Had a lot of his firsts pretty late, given the fucking burning to death and subsequent coma, but Dabi wasn't as nervous about any of those firsts as he is about how Duster is going to react to this first kiss. 
A startled breath catches in the back of his throat as a deadly hand wraps around his hip, the other mirroring his around the back of his neck. But he isn't killed. Instead Shigaraki is pressing towards him this time. Is the one sealing their mouths together again and he does it much more firmly than Dabi had. Kisses him hard, nips at his lip until his mouth opens on a tiny gasp. Didn't expect this. Didn't expect Duster's hands to be so sure, for his kiss to be so demanding. Doesn't know if he's going to burn or drown when his tongue slips between the seam of his lips. 
Lets his fingers tangle into that mop of pale hair, thick and soft between them, as he opens, as their tongues meet. They both taste like whiskey, but Dabi knows he also tastes like smoke most of the time too. Duster tastes like... cold. Didn't know cold had a taste, but it's there, hidden on his tongue, behind his teeth, and Dabi comes to the horrible realization that he's going to fucking crave it after this. Gonna make it really hard to do his job and pretend this never happened in the morning. 
Wonders if he's going to have to when Shigaraki is pushing him back until Dabi's flat against the cool roof, knee between his legs, Duster's hands still on him, one finger carefully raised on each. When they're still kissing, barely parting for breath before pulling each other back in again. When they're making out on the roof like a couple of teenagers and not two wanted criminals. Shigaraki nips at his lip and even though it's light, it still sends a needle-point of pain along the seam of his lip. The type of hurt that makes all of his skin feel a little too hot and a little too tight as he lets out a breathy sigh against the other man's mouth. The sound seems to spur Shigaraki on, kisses him harder, keeps nipping and biting at his mouth and Dabi gives as good as he gets, until both of their mouths are going to be flushed and bruised. Wonders if he asked, if Shigaraki would let him put bruises on his long pretty neck too. 
Doesn't get a chance to ask when both of their phones start screeching at them. Dabi is very tempted to ignore them, wants to keep Duster's mouth on his, his weight on top of his body, but Shigaraki restrains him with four fingers pressed against his chest as he starts to sit up, pulling his phone out of his pocket. Dabi doesn't bother to find his. It's fucking late and whoever's calling is fucking up what might be his only chance to mess around with his boss. He's not really feeling charitable enough to answer right now. 
"What?" And at least Shig sounds as annoyed as Dabi is feeling. There's a frantic burst of speech from the other end of the line and Dabi recognizes the overlapping voices of Magne and Toga, though he can't really make out what they're saying. "I told you not to get caught. Text Kurogiri, I'm busy." And he hangs up. 
Dabi doesn't know if he should be amused and maybe a little flattered or disturbed that making out with him is higher on Duster's priority list than potentially two of their own getting arrested. "They gonna be okay?" 
"Kurogiri will retrieve them." Shigaraki says, disinterestedly before he's leaning back in. Dabi is expecting a kiss, not expecting him to lean in and murmur against his ear, "I really, really want to fuck you, baby." Can't hide the way the words make a shiver run down his spine even as his temperature creeps a few degrees hotter. Red, red eyes on his and absolutely smoldering with heat. 
"Okay." 
Thanks for submitting! I'm still accepting prompts from this list!

kinnporsche ep. 10: Collateral
-vegas doesn’t try very hard to convince porsche that they are “running away together” in the usual, romantic sense: his pitch largely hinges on their shared responsibility to protect the theerapanyakul family from tawan’s machinations. his one feeble “no matter how bad i am, i would never hurt someone i love” doesn’t seem to make much of an impression on porsche; vegas barely seems to expect it to.
-costume note: vegas in his porsche cosplay is a delight, if rather obvious: he (temporarily) swaps his trademark slutty silk shirt for a white crew-neck tee and plain gold chain, some version of which is what we see porsche in any time he’s not in his work uniform. this was presumably done in an attempt to come off more approachable and trustworthy. though i honestly doubt the costume change made much of a difference to porsche, maybe it helped vegas get into the right headspace?
-porsche saying “you have to trust me” and running off leaves this gutted look on kinn’s face and i think it’s because kinn just realized that he’s being asked for a level of trust that porsche can’t match-- that is, porsche doesn’t trust kinn to trust him. kinn wants porsche to look at him and just know, but they are so far from being on the same page that all he can do is let porsche go and hope that conveys some measure of his faith in porsche’s loyalty and integrity. and this is after kinn came here already knowing porsche’s innocence & planning to free him anyway. this scene just held a mirror up to kinn’s face and he is not liking what he sees in it.
-i know i gloss over a lot of the kimchay stuff but chay’s “i’ve always thought i was an unlucky person but it turns out i was saving all my luck for you” is like. god. porsche loved and protected and sacrificed everything for his brother all so he could have a shot at this; absorbed so many of the shocks of life so that chay could grow up to be this free and open and fearless with his heart. KIM YOU MUST GUARD THIS BOY’S HAPPINESS WITH YOUR LIFE I’M NOT FUCKING PLAYING (narrator voice: He Will Not)
-i wish chay had been conscious to at least note kim’s intervention. the “person b fights hard for person a but due to circumstances person a never finds out” trope stresses me out too much to actually enjoy any of the drama it generates. 
-pete’s vote of confidence is especially touching (and clear-sighted!) coming right after porsche beat him in hand-to-hand & escaped with a traitorous miasma trailing visibly after him
-pete casts spell of “no one notice me” (aka: dress as a laborer) and what a surprise, it works perfectly-- all the guards at the compound are too concerned with the contents of pete’s suspicious-looking crate to pay any attention to where he goes once they take their eyes off him
-tawan’s “the thumb drive full of evidence is really a virus that will knock out the main family’s systems!” play makes me, just. SO embarrassed for our guys. like my computer is riddled with disease but that’s because i’m watching thai bl mafia dating sims on dodgy websites; arm has NO excuse. WHY DIDn”T ANYONE LISTEN TO SEXY, DISTRUSTFUL BIG WHEN HE TOLD THEM THE “EVIDENCE” WAS A TRAP??? (porsche running around this echoing warehouse shouting and giving away his position also embarrasses me, but at least he has the excuse of He’s New Here and also that’s his baby brother tied up on the floor)
-very interested in vegas’s behavior in this episode but not sure i have the critical thinking skills to parse it all. he’s been manipulating both porsche and tawan this whole time; if his plan had worked, would he have picked one of them to like, keep around? i sense that at different points he’s had some genuine liking for both of them (or at least that he’s such a method actor that he has a tendency to catch feelings for whoever he’s manipulating at the time).
-there was a brief sour look on vegas’s face when porsche demanded they check on chay before making any other moves; later, in the warehouse, vegas gives it a voice by explaining that he quite actively despises his cousin and doesn’t understand why porsche thinks “but family???” counts as a compelling argument. i feel sorry for porsche in this moment, but i don’t blame him for having been manipulated by vegas. he’s willing to look for the good in even the scummiest characters (see: the uncle he supported for years despite a gambling addiction that threatened the entire household; kinn’s whole... everything), and vegas exploited that weakness handily.
-BIG!! NO!!!! (he looks so offended when tawan fatally shoots him. rest in peace my bitchy king) (seriously though: his split second choice to bodyguard porsche as if porsche were a theerapanyakul... not because he cares abt porsche [he Fuckin Doesn’t] but because porsche’s survival benefits the family.........it hurts me so much)
-pete, earlier in the episode: “if i get caught wiretapping vegas, the minor family will torture information out of me and then kill me.” pete now that he’s been caught wiretapping: >:D
there’s a look of like, breathless anticipation on his face as he’s naked & tied up & waiting for vegas to decide what to do with his spark plugs of torture, but i’m not 100% sure it’s. totally a sexual anticpation? i think at this point pete is just in a bit of a daze & waiting to see what’s going to happen to him-- and to learn how much of it he can handle. tbc, the sexual nature of his response to all the torture must be embedded in there somewhere, but i think it’s still far below the surface. all he knows is that he is feeling everything, so much right now, his body filling up with sensations too big for him to process.

For the asks: ❤️💚 and 🖤?
🧡: What is a popular (serious) theory you disagree with?
Apparently you have to like... write words in order to have written something. That just seems far-fetched to me. ((Sorry XDDD I already answered this one and I'm fresh out of hot takes. IDK what theories people even have.))
💚: What does everyone else get wrong about your favorite character?
If you don't like MCU Spider-Man because he's too "uwu baby innocent" then... you're doing it wrong. Yeah, I admit fandom has babyized him, but one of the defining characteristics of Spider-Man, along with power and responsibility and all that is his *anger*. He's either constantly channeling it into something positive, suppressing it, or letting it get out in ways that inevitably destroy his life.
We don't see MCU Peter in that position for most of the movies, that's true- but if you view the trilogy as a long form origin story (as I think it's meant to be), then I think it's reasonable that he doesn't reach his breaking point until May dies in NWH. We see that he's not perfect, not wholly innocent, he's just never been tested in this way- and if he wasn't stopped by a version of himself who had made the mistake of letting his anger take over- he would have done exactly that.
No, MCU Peter didn't kill Norman Osborn. But he wanted to. He *tried* to. He was stopped from doing so, but he still has to live with the reality that it was something he absolutely would have done, and figure out how to make sure he doesn't ever sink to that level, especially when there's another way out.
🖤: Which character is not as morally good as everyone else seems to think?
Alright, here's the thing- there is this guy, and like, I get it. On paper, he seems great. Hometown hero, wants to make the city a safer and better place for people to live. Came from nothing but he worked tirelessly to get where he is, despite a difficult childhood and a lifetime of keeping secrets from others that made it difficult for him to get truly close to anyone- (except maybe that one guy he works with). And everybody - they eat this up! They love it! They think, oh he looks so sad, we should give him a chance, listen to him, he just wants to help. But here's the thing, he's lying to everyone! He is NOT a good guy! He might wear fancy suits and have a fancy vocabulary but he is no stranger to violence and he's not above using it to accomplish his goals! And people overlook this because he's wellspoken and charismatic but you should NOT LET YOURSELVES BE FOOLED. DO NOT VOTE FOR FISK IN THE UPCOMING MAYORAL ELECTION! THE FATE OF THE CITY DEPENDS ON IT!!!

Regarding Hozier - Oak Mountain Amphitheatre 5/5/24
(setlist, journal, commentary)
Allison Russell opened and I need to give her a listen she has a very beautiful, soulful voice. Funky band and very lovely backing harmonies. A powerful, sunny presence, if a little corny, talking about harm reduction and voting and power.
Had a great time, didn't have a religious experience, though I've found this has as much or more to do with my state of mind as it does with the performance. Made me appreciate a lot of Unreal, Unearth more, which has been my least favorite of his albums (I think the theming makes it a little structurally awkward, and there are some songs on it (butchered tongue, eat your young) that I don't like listening to most of the time because of subject matter.) I realize there are many songs on that album I would still like to hear live (All Things End would be amazing, I think) though I was very happy to hear Francesca [I'D TELL THEM PUT ME BACK IN IT] It threatened to rain the whole time but never did more than sprinkle until we were in the car leaving. Distant lightning started on Nina Cried Power. Doors were supposed to be at 6:00 and we were let in about 6:40. There was a guy who works at the amphitheater in line ahead of us, who, from talking to some other employees, said the fire marshall was there and they were patching some things up for inspection (?? !? ???). The facilities are nice, the food sucks. We were seated right behind the VIP boxes.
I typed the setlist on my phone as the concert went on, and while I can sing along to most of Hozier's songs I don't know the titles of all of them, especially on Unreal, Unearth. So here's my raw notes with commentary from my more lucid Monday morning self in brackets
-De Selby [backdrop landscape with timelapse photography style spinning starry sky, very beautiful, very beautiful song]
-? Unreal unearth track with first order guy [Hux, Domhnall Gleeson] in the video [this is De Selby pt. 2]
-Jackie and Wilson 
-Too sweet [With this hitting #1 I thought perhaps I would be at this concert while it was still #1, a bit of serendipity since I bought these tickets months ago - alas, it's sunk down below most of the tracks on The Tortured Poets Department. Thanks, I hate it]
-Oh to be alone with h you (th God that heroin prays to) [Alone With You - I thought I didn't know the title of this one but I did]
-Dinner and Diatribes
-Francesca [I'D TELL THEM PUT ME BACK IN IT]
-It will come back [wasn't confident of the title of this one but I was correct]
-Cherry wine [Hozier solo - he looked up mid song to find that much of the amphitheatre had their phone lights out. He paused and put a hand to his heart and seemed to genuinely have a little moment]
-From Eden
-Wildflower and Barley (with Allison Russell)
-Like Real People Do
-Unknown nth (?) (see how it shines) [actually this was Abstract (Psychopomp)  I told you I did not know the titles of these. Also, now knowing that this is (in part) about an animal hit by a car is well 1) this is obvious and I feel very stupid 2) holy fuck]
- I don't know the title of this one still living roots consumed by the flame oooooooo [this is Would That I - always thought of this one as a sequel to Arsonist's Lullaby]
-Almost (sweet music) (with highlights on the band) [notably, part of the backdrop for this is pictures of records of all the song references/title drops that are in this. In case you did not Get It. Hozier will not be at peace if you do not Get It. To be fair there are a couple of them I would miss]
-Eat your young
-Movement
-Take me to church 
Encore:
nina cried power [with preceding commentary about the history of protest, about the American civil rights movement directly influencing civil rights movement in North Ireland, about boycotting apartheid south Africa, Free Palestine! about movements being seeing the truth as it is and saying that it should be better, etc. (extremely paraphrasing) This went over positively, which is always a nice thing to experience given location (ALABAMA) but the people queueing to buy Hozier tix (the show was sold out and IIRC was sold out in less than 24 hrs after it went on sale) are at least somewhat aware and approving of his politics. May not be gen. pop. but you'll never be alone.]
The being unknown angel to me [THIS is Unknown/nth]
Work song [with Allison Russell, who is notably Not A Coward and did not change the pronouns. I don't know what Allison Russell's sexuality is but she's at least an ally what with the rainbow coalition stuff. Phone flashlights out again.]

Day 6- Another Chance to Fly

Summary: Bilbo and Thorin had a chance to show the world of figure skating how a hobbit and dwarf can be the greatest, when a tragic accident lost them a world title and subsequently their careers. Five years later, Bilbo is ready to make another run at it, but will he be able to convince Thorin to shake off the trauma of the moment to give him another chance to fly?
Warnings: Mentions of blood
Thorin was never one to let nerves get to him. He relished competition, and proving people wrong seemed to be a skill he was especially deft at. However, stretching in their warm-up room as the clock on the wall continued to count down the time until they were on the ice was making him shake. 
“Thorin? Are you listening to me?”
His gaze immediately flew over to where Bilbo Baggins sat, calm and collected as ever. However, rather than be envious of his partner, he found himself completely taken with how fluffy his curls were tonight. And how even under the heavy stage make-up, Bilbo’s fawn eyes still managed to reflect a level of innocent naivety that he knew were not actual traits in his companion, but caught him off-guard all the same.
“It’s just another night. Don’t think about who is in the audience or what’s at stake. Think about me and how vexed I’ll be if you drop me.”
Thorin laughed knowing exactly how Bilbo would be. Down to being more upset that Thorin messed up their routine than the actual injury itself. Not that Thorin would let that happen. 
“You ready to walk through our steps?” Bilbo asked, popping up off the mat.
“Ready as I’ll ever be.”
Thorin rather detested warm-ups that weren’t on the ice. He knew Balin and Gandalf would kill him if he didn’t do it, but there seemed to be a lack of finesse when you were clunkily running around the room versus literally gliding on the ice. However, he and Bilbo went through the whole routine, spending a little bit of extra time on the tricky sections. Every time was perfect. Bilbo was perfect.
Two years ago, Thorin was continuing a family legacy of being one the few dwarven skaters in all of Arda. In a sport dominated primarily by the taller men and elves, dwarves were considered too boorish and clumsy to make good figure skaters. Then Thror took the world by storm, nearly winning a world championship in his first year on tour. Thrain was quick to follow in his footsteps, leaving Thorin to carry the mantle as well. For most of his career, he had only done singles. Elves and men didn’t make good partners, and Thorin had never been able to find a dwarf he was compatible with. Then he had been approached by Gandalf and Bilbo.
Bilbo Baggins had been an enigma. Hobbits did not figure skate. Ever. Their foot hair was so sacred in their culture that covering it was practically sacreligious. Thorin understood this well as it was the same for dwarves and their braids. Yet, Bilbo wore his custom skates proudly, and let Thorin know that his goals were the same as his: to make it to the top and prove everyone else wrong. 
Thorin wished he could say that they clicked immediately, but Thorin spent the first few months of their partnership trying to push Bilbo away. He saw the hobbit as a liability. Something too new in the world of figure skating to ever get him the score he deserved. It was after watching him skate literal circles around Azog that changed Thorin’s mind. They had been partners ever since. Something Thorin wished to extend past their professional lives as the velvet box sat heavy in his gym bag.
“It’s time, lads.” Balin stated poking his head into the room.
“We’ll be right out.” Bilbo promised.
He waited until after the older dwarf had gone before surging onto his feet to press a kiss to Thorin’s lips.
“For luck.” He smirked.
Just like that, all of Thorin’s jittery energy had been completely grounded. One more reason why he loved Bilbo Baggins.
“I don’t think I quite got that.” He teased.
Bilbo didn’t hesitate to surge back up for a longer kiss this time.
“Third time’s the charm.” Thorin remarked.
Only it was Thorin bending down in order to explore Bilbo’s mouth thoroughly. Letting all thoughts that weren’t about the hobbit he loved fall by the wayside.
“Satisfied?” Bilbo asked breathlessly when he finally, reluctantly pulled away.
“Well actually…”
“Two minutes!” Gandalf called as a warning, not bothering to poke his head in.
Thorin groaned as he rested his forehead against Bilbo’s.
“His timing.”
Bilbo pet Thorin’s cheeks with his thumbs as his grin seemed to light up his whole face. It made Thorin want to kiss him again. 
“We need to go. I’ll let you kiss me afterwards. As well as other things.”
“I love you.” Thorin blurted unashamed. 
Bilbo’s grin widened as he gave Thorin one last sweet kiss.
“Come on. We have a gold medal to win.”
Looking back, Thorin always blamed the fourth kiss as a sign of what was to come. He shouldn’t have pushed for more. It was bad luck. Not that he had ever believed in luck. In fact, he had frequently told Bilbo that they make their own luck.
They left the room and followed their coaches down a long hallway that led to the main arena. The closer they got, the colder it got. A welcome change as far as Thorin was concerned. Bilbo gave a small shiver as he did every time. Thranduil and his wife had just finished, and were exiting the ice to await their score. However, the haughty elf clearly made time to find Thorin’s eyes and give him a challenging eyebrow raise.
“Ignore him.” Bilbo immediately whispered.
It was fine. If anything it got Thorin’s blood roaring. It would be his great pleasure to wipe the floor with the prissy platinum blonde twit. Still concerned that Thorin may start something, an apt fear considering it had happened once before, Bilbo led Thorin over to a bench far from Thranduil to put on their skates.
Finally ready to get out on the ice, Thorin popped up and immediately made eye contact with the one person in the arena who could unravel his confidence in seconds. His grandfather’s eyes bore back into him as if daring him to impress him. Memories and fears became entangled in his mind to the point that Thorin wondered if he would ever find his way out again. However, with a quick touch to his cheek, Bilbo reminded Thorin he wasn’t alone once again, and the moment their eyes met it became easier to breathe.
“Just look at me.” Bilbo whispered. “Don’t take your eyes off me.”
Probably the easiest instructions any person could give him. Thorin covered the hand on his cheek giving it a small squeeze. It was the last good moment before everything went terribly, terribly wrong.
It was all just flashes of sights and sounds to Thorin now. Pieces of his memory that refused to go away no matter how hard he tried. The horrified screams from the crowd somehow louder than the track to their dance they didn’t quite realize should be turned off. The cold seeping into his knees as he cradled a small body close. The flashing blues and reds of the ambulance as he clutched tightly to an unresponsive hand pleading with every deity he could think of to let Bilbo Baggins awaken once more. Even as blood pooled from behind the gauze held tight over his eye. 
There were two things and two things only that he remembered with absolute clarity that night. The first was staring at Bilbo’s pale body in that hospital bed. The neck brace swallowing him as Thorin had to listen to the long, awful list of possible symptoms Bilbo could face after this. Paralysis being the one to stick in his brain and not let go. The second was Thranduil’s interview after the accident, and while Thorin had never wanted to punch the elf more, a small part of him told him he deserved it. After what he did to Bilbo, he deserved it and more.
“There’s an affliction in the skating world known as goldsickness where the desire to achieve gold invalidates everything and everyone else. I always suspected Thorin Oakenshield had it, especially considering it was the condition that essentially ended his grandfather’s career, and yet even I was unprepared for such a devastating and heartbreaking scene. My sympathies go out to Mr. Baggins who was dragged down by the dwarf’s madness, and my hopes that he can find solstice in a promising career cut short by greed.”

My Eurovision 2023 Finals Top 10 As Someone Who Has Never Watched Eurovision Before
10. Cyprus
Tumblr media
I don't have strong opinions on this one, it's just a decent song. I almost swapped this one out for Isreal because I appreciate the girlboss energy of that one and I like Noa's performance more but I think this song is just more to my taste.
9. Moldova
Tumblr media
I was kind of baffled the first time I saw this one but it's grown on me, especially since it's my best friend's favourite. I'm 90% sure they're attempting to summon a demon with that performance and I'm digging it. That guy absolutely goes OFF on that flute.
8. Switzerland
Tumblr media
okay look I know everyone hates this one and I get it. It does feel a little cheap and pandering but I just like the vague Arcade vibes. At this point I think I'm just loyal to it because it was the one of the first songs this year that I began to recognise. The irony of the guy from Switzerland singing that he doesn't want to go to war is not lost on me.
7. Slovenia
Tumblr media
I don't think I need to say much about this one, everyone loves Joker Out. Bojan can hmu if he decides he's over Käärijä.
6. Finland
Tumblr media
Speaking of Käärijä, I did NOT like this song at all when I first heard it but I succumbed to Stockholm syndrome and it's now a certified banger in my books. I was drawn in by Käärijä interviews and I can't help but like him now. CHA CHA CHA-CHA-CHA-CHA CHA
5. Australia
Tumblr media
Australia absolutely popped off with this one. Their staging is absolutely fantastic too. Showing up in a fucking car in the best act at the end of semi 2 was such a powermove. My inner Australian patriotism jumps out whenever someone mentions Voyager. I kind of want them to win because the idea of Australia winning Eurovision is so fucking funny to me and they have definitely earned it this year.
4. Sweden
Tumblr media
I feel like everyone either loves or hates this one. I am definitely in the former camp. Loreen is an extremely talented performer, she's absolutely ate every performance so far and Tatoo has some of the most eye-catching staging. That being said, I do think this song is slightly overrated as one of the favourites to win and given that Loreen has already won Eurovision I absolutely do NOT want this one to be the winner.
The top 3 can be completely interchangeable, there's a chance that I could vote for any of these tonight.
3. Czechia
Tumblr media
This song. I absolutely adore the message of female solidarity and sisterhood in this song but the song itself is just fucking epic. It sounds like it should be the theme behind the climactic battle in a movie or something. I don't know how to explain it but the chorus almost moves me to tears every time. I don't think this one is going to win but I would be very happy if it did.
2. Ukraine
Tumblr media
This was the first song from this year that caught my attention. It's probably the closest in style to my actual taste in music and it's been on my playlist for months so I definitely feel some kind of loyalty to it. You can just feel the defiance and resilience in this song and it feels very genuine and raw. I only found out recently that Heart of Steel references a real world event where the Ukrainian army defended the Azovstal Iron and Steel Works against Russian forces. The rehearsal they showed for Heart of Steel has me slightly worried that the Finals performance won't live up to my expectations but I think the message could be enough to get them the public favour.
1. Norway
Tumblr media
I have been listening to Queen of Kings non-stop over this past week. Norway has been on my radar since I started listening to this year's lineup but Alessandra's performance in that first semi-final really blew me away. The raw power and girlboss energy of this song is just so -ugh. I think I might be in love with that girl. I also do think she has a good shot at winning it all and I hope she does.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Hellsite Nostalgia Tour 2023 Day 63
No Rest For the Wicked/The Shakespeare Code
"No Rest For the Wicked"
Would I Survive the First Five Minutes??: It was recap and Sam promising Dean he's not gonna go to hell :/
Dean is making saving him so fucking difficult. I mean, he's not WRONG about the dangers of both of them going after Lilith, but still.
Sam...summoning Ruby was one of the no-no's.
I want to apologize first to everyone who voted "No" to me listening to Carry On Wayward Son over and over on finale days. You guys were right. This will not stop me from listening to only that song on finale days. I meant to watch Doctor Who on my lunch, but ended up scrolling tumblr while that played for a whole hour.
Dean is making saving him so fucking difficult. I mean, he's not WRONG about the dangers of both of them going after Lilith, but still.
Sam...summoning Ruby was one of the no-no's.
I didn't expect a knock down, drag out fight between Dean and Ruby...but god damn. That was pretty fucking brilliant of him, steal the knife and lure her into the devil's trap
Omg, this little girl playing Lilith is both adorable and terrifying. She has all the sweetness of the best behaved child yet the front of her dress and her hands are absolutely drenched in blood. Amazing.
I love how much Bobby loves these boys. He's not gonna let them off easy, but he also won't stop lookin out for them <3
No. Cuz like them singing Bon Jovi in the car shouldn't be so cute. But it's fucking PRECIOUS...til Dean thinks too hard about the lyrics
You know, all this time and it's the very first time they've gotten pulled over
It's really CONVENIENT that Dean can see demon's real faces now...
Of course it's not the little girl anymore...
Oh...oh, listening to them say goodbye without saying goodbye...I hate it. I hate it SO MUCH. Yes, even fully knowing there are TWELVE more seasons...
It's...weird that they're running from the hellhounds like IMMEDIATELY after Dean told Sam that Sam has to let him go...I mean, yeah, death by hellhound sounds and looks terrible, and Hell sure isn't gonna be fun, but, like...I dunno
Maybe you need to stop hesitating to kill demons, Sam. It wouldn't have saved Dean, but you would have at least gotten rid of Lilith.
God. I cannot WAIT for tomorrow!!!!!
"Been On My Mind...": My final contractually obligated entry. Huh. So, Sam does get a kiss from Lilith, I guess...in Ruby's body
"The Shakespeare Code"
Nooooooo, I just remembered this episode has a [fandom redacted] reference in it. I mean...we're talking about, what, 2007? So, it's understandable, but I'm really ugh about it being there
STOP. LILITH IS A CHARACTER IN THIS EPISODE TOO??? WHAT ARE THE FUCKING ODDS. WHAT ARE THE CHANCES. HOW DO I KEEP DOING THIS KIND OF SHIT
I love that the Doctor has the same attitude toward the TARDIS as I have toward him "oh let's just take the fun and the mystery out of everything. martha, you don't want to know. it just goes"
The Doctor got really lucky (alien attack aside...that was gonna happen no matter what) things just kinda worked out bringing Martha back to 1599, but brushing off her very valid concerns suckssss
Narrowing my eyes at the "London never changes" comment from the Doctor after Martha looks for confirmation that the actors playing female roles were "men dressed as women." Especially with the my first comment...it's just close enough. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT, you know? WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?
Martha, I respect the hustle, but...clearly this is your first time traveling in time. You were so worried about the butterfly effect before, what happened, my dear?
Honestly, if one of the greatest and most revered writers of all time looked at me like that, I'd have a grin like Martha's too and...also probably spout off a bunch of nonsense right in a row
So...is it not actually aliens? Is it actually actually witches??
Oh! It's an "only one bed" situation. Poor Martha...she's so underappreciated by him. No...not underappreciated, completely UNappreciated.
Yeah...Didn't actually think it was witches. Wrong show for that.
I love when the acting is so camp, but that's what's being called for so it fucking WORKS. Shakespeare being controlled by the one witch (I'm gonna call them that til they give me a species name...). His face looks so dopey but it still works. And only because this is Doctor Who.
It's always entertaining when they have famous authors as characters and they get inspiration whether plot or turns of phrase from this adventure.
I'm not sure how much thought went into the motivations of these aliens...okay. Okay. They DO want to bring more of their species to rule over Earth. I really thought these were the last three left, and they didn't seem as immortal as the Daleks.
...there's more than one...🤢 again...I get for the time period it was written. It just sucks to hear it.
I can't wait to encounter whatever the Doctor did to upset Queen Elizabeth I.
Episodes Since the Doctor's Last Genocide Attempt: 2?? (Is it genocide if they're not dead but locked away in a crystal ball forever?? I guess there's always the CHANCE of escape, but unlikely)

✨Galaxy Anon ✨ here!
Vivi loved that post of Joseph x reader! Ooh it’s good to have some Joseph love as well!
Pfft literature classes I was good at but at the same time I don’t even know how because I still don’t know what a conjunction is. Have faith in your creations!
Dude that had to be awkward especially also having to avoid people who try to make you go to work again before your break is even up.
Kinda but I know I can barely do much not to mention I need more proof and I doubt it change there attitudes for long. I just have to be smarter now to get them off my back.
Oooh movie night then! Makes sense are you guys sensitive also about that or more just hear it? Makes sense everyone had there limits.
I can understand your viewpoint. I wasn’t raising my sister really since school and my mom wanted to make sure I didn’t have to go through what she had but I was really young as well but I have respect for siblings who do have to play parent because it’s hard. Raising your siblings as well having also a mindset of a child still can really mess it up because your brain isn’t developed all the way yet and not to mention already having school to worry about is just hard. Not to mention hearing “ I hate you.” Is different for a child than a parent especially how they handle it. I would’ve start crying if I had to deal with that since I was struggling with my self esteem at the time as well. It’s understandable, you stepped up but you aren’t perfect so sometimes people do things that they regret but you were there for them and I’m sure they are grateful you gave a shit about them. I see. I see vivi and it was unfair of a situation especially having to worry about things like that. But I’m glad you learned and grown as a person and you admit it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. It sucks that you didn’t have another parental figure as well to help with the family and you have the right to be mad about that. But in the end at least you have more stability now and I’m sure your family is glad for what you have done for them. I’m always hear vivi to listen and I maybe not always understand but I will listen. Because that’s what friends are for. And if you ever want to talk privately just ask so I can give you my account here on tumblr. Though make sure not to post it since I’m not ready to go all public with more nsfw content right now.
On a lighter note vivi what did you expect the public to Vote when you said if you should make more smut or not? Everyone horny and honestly your smut fucking delivers so get ready to hear the filthy simps in your comments! Though I can’t deny I’m excited about what you cook up next with your next work so can’t wait!
Galaxy!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕 I was just thinking about you! How are you?? I hope your doing okay!
I'm glad you liked it! I had a Joesph itch that just needed to be scratched 💕
HONESTLY ME FUCKING EITHER BUT IM PASSING!! ah, thank you! I try to but sometimes I overthink. There is so much deleted work because of it.
Well, we went home for our two weeks so if my supervisor asked me to stay and I said no I just went home and forgot about it. It only got weird when she asked me if I would work extra hours lol.
Ah, I see. I hope it either goes well for you or your situation improves. Work is already hell you shouldn't have coworkers making it worse.
Hell yeah! We could do it on discord! My mom isn't as sensitive as I am due to her working in the medical field. Me on the other a real-life deep cute makes me cringe and shiver, and I have to look away.
Honestly, the school was another thing that suffered. Yes, I graduated on time, but not with the best grades, and only because I poured HOURS into credit recovery. I missed so much school that I'm surprised they didn't call the cops. Not all of it was because I had to stay with my siblings, but looking back I think it was because I never had me time it was always school and then being a parent. So I faked being sick to have that me time I wanted. Thank you, Galaxy that means a lot, and the same goes for you. I will always be happy to hear or help you in any way I can and feel free to private message me for anything 💕💕
Lol I'll tell you a secret. I got the idea during my all night marathon. I was reading this really good dmc fic, and it sparked this idea that I hope everyone will like. On top of that I think my smut writing could use some work. I struggle sometimes.

Listening to conservative commentators “blame” the lack of a red wave this election season on things like mail in ballets and democrats being able to appeal to independent/undecided voters is wild. Tomi Lahren legit on Fox News stating, in laymen terms, that democrats won because people voted.
And they phrase it like it’s a bad thing! Oh people exercised their constitutional right to vote, something not all of us had until recently, and that’s why republicans lost. Because how dare people we don’t want voting actually vote! Like how insane do you have to be to make that your point! And to say it so blatantly. Like voter suppression is unconstitutional, but conservatives don’t care if it gets them their votes.
This line of thinking is ironically why people came out and voted democrat this year. Because the message has been that letting republicans win means the end of our democracy. The way I’ve heard that said so many times this election cycle. And then to pretty much prove that point by unironically saying “we need to get a handle on these election proceedings!”
Most people do not like trump. He lost the popular vote TWICE. Most people do not believe he lost in 2020 unfairly. Most people, especially moderates/independent voters who can go either way with their votes, do not like the culture war shit republicans keep trying to bank on. Wages are stagnant and inflation is drastically raising the cost of living. People don’t care about “big government spending” because that’s not what is making the cost of living go up (talking about Oz’s campaign in PA vs Fetterman’s free healthcare and lobbying for abortion rights which voters are going to care more about as that directly impacts them).
Republican politicians have become so out of touch, leaning into the most radical and zealous of their base instead of actually trying to relate to those moderates who want to see real change and do not like the culture war shit republicans have been running on for the last decade. Ppl are tired. They want to pay their bills, not debate who goes in what bathrooms and who should get married. The average American isn’t looking for a total upheaval of our capitalistic system, they just don’t want to be crushed by it. And at no point do you hear these republicans talking about tax breaks for the working class. They’re not talking about incentives to encourage companies to pay their workers well. They’re not talking about cracking down on predatory loans by banks or free childcare to working moms parents or safety incentives at schools to prevent mass shootings and the such.
Nope, they just want to keep running on building a costly wall that doesn’t impact the vast majority of Americans, bathroom bills when the average American not living in a metropolitan area will likely never meet a trans person, and robbing women of their right to decide not to risk their lives in childbirth. And then cry and blame trump or people ACTUALLY going out to vote on why they can’t win.
Republicans don’t stand for anything anymore. They just try to bank on “hey, at least I’m not that yuppy drinking soy lattes amirite?” But look at Fetterman! He is an Everyman! He gave speeches in jeans and a hoodie! He looks like the grumpy white men who work in my insanely white-male conservative industry and he believes in free universal healthcare! He believed in a living wage as the minimum wage! He believes in a woman’s right to choose! And you expect working class Pennsylvanians to vote for the tv fake doctor yuppy over this guy???? The guy who looks like the dude we call over to fix out dishwashers or would chat up at a car show or see down in jersey fishing for a relaxing weekend????? The guy who looks and lives just like us??????
Republicans are nuts and what they really need to get a grip on is building a case for why we would want to maintain the status quo because the longer we live in it, the less reasonable it seems.
Anyway, republicans get fucked. See you losers in 2024. ✌🏾
