OP to you being clueless to their flirting/feelings I

ೃ⁀➷ TW/CW: Fluff, Nothing much tbh, A little bit of Teasing, Gender Neutral Reader, let me know if I need to add more TW/Tags ♡ Minors please interact with me only by liking or reblogs. ➳ Characters: Ace D. Portgas, Luffy D. Monkey, Sabo, Zoro Roronoa, Sanji Vinsmoke, Izo, Cavendish, Rayleigh, Trafalgar Law

⤠ Part II ⤟ One Piece Masterlist ⤠ Cbat Song⤟

I wrote this when I wasnt that well so if some stuff sounds/seems weird I'm sorry, I tried my best to correct it HAHAHA I need to write more about one piece sob,,,,

Ace and Luffy are the worst for the mere reason that they are straightforward. A lot. Like they both clearly stated that they like you in a more romantic sense when you stated that you two were friends, but if you somehow still didn't get the hint they would be clueless about what to do other than scream their love. Ace would be a lot more flirty and teasing than Luffy, mostly because the latter isn't interested in it lmfao. Also Luffy is oblivious too, he isn't that interested in having a love relationship, while Ace not at all, and would notice things pretty quickly.

Sabo isn't that bad. But I feel like he could be quite oblivious too, making the situation both funny and annoying to everyone else. You both like each other, flirt even, but still convinced that the other is just being friendly koala is screaming into her pillow please. Luckily Sabo braincells would connect and realize what has been happening for a while, also thanks to Koala, so everything is well. Kind of. He has no idea how to make you realize his feelings without screaming like the other two

Zoro is both oblivious and straightforward. He lives in his own world of training, not noticing it your flirting or his own until it's too late. Drives him a little bit insane how oblivious you are even if he thought it made things pretty clear; he likes you and wants to take your relationship further, but maybe his wording wasn't the best and you misunderstood... Somehow.

You just think that Sanji is being, you know, Sanji. So you don't think too much about it. Expect the fact that he is being much worse when it's about you; he knows your favorite food, drink, book and he is always, always thriving for your attention and praise. Not also very shy about it, will remind you time and time again that he likes you. Without batting an eye. Maybe tearing a little bit considering how you constantly reject his feelings by calling him friends, although you didn't mean it

I like to think that Izo is into a more traditional way of courting, so your misunderstanding of his gestures is pretty normal, considering that they both be seen as platonic and romantic. However, he is gonna make stuff pretty clear soon while slightly teasing you, finding your obliviousness simply adorable. He won't mind it that much, using it mostly to tease just a tiny bit. A tiny bit he says, lying.

My sweet boy Cavendish is so confused and perplexed. He honestly thought it was pretty clear, considering how clearly he favors you over anyone else. Not that he minds it, he finds it as a battle to make you understand his feelings, and it's a good excuse to pamper you with gifts and affection. Like the dude would propose to you to be his partner like he's asking your hand in marriage, he is not subtle by any means. Probably took the word out of his dictionary.

Rayleigh is a fucker. He noticed how completely oblivious you are to his flirting right from the start and he is amused by it, loving to tease you and make you question what his action actually means. He doesn't do it with malice and would clarify pretty quickly his feelings, waiting for you to get embaressed over the situation with a smirk.

Poor Trafalgar has no idea how to work in this situation. You can literally hear the gear in his brain trying to work out, because, in all honesty, he thought his feelings were all over the place. He's glad that it isn't the case, but he has no idea how to confess his feelings without secondhand embarrassment. Especially with how many times you have called him a dear friend in his face, ignoring his groan and grunt.

“Cavendish and Dakota are just really good friends!”

Allow me to explain A Christmas peril to you once again

Cavendish and Dakota had a petty argument that stuck with one another for 20+ years.

Overtime, they could’ve gotten over each other by moving on to diffrent careers, or meet different people. Likely getting new partners since they were still involved with time travel for a couple more years.

A few years later, Dakota likely had given up time traveling. Going on to be a pop star/writer, and presumably being gifted a nicer time car as a parting gift. Forgetting all about Cavendish after all those years.

Cavendish’s life seemed to stay the same, just more lonely and still mourning the loss of his friend. Rubbing salt into the wound as he watched Dakota gain popularity in the media. While Cav stayed in the same place 20 years later.

Cavendish likely never married either. Otherwise why would he still be fixated on Dakota for so long? At this point, he should've had a family and moved on, forgetting his friendship with Dakota all those years ago.

If Cavendish and Dakota had different partners for time travel after their split up, they could've found new people or possible spouses. But a majority likely weren't able to last due to them lacking connections with others.

Hence why Cavendish looks so alone in the future. He was never able to marry due to never finding anyone.

And it wasn't just Cavendish, it was Dakota too who also mourned for him years later and also never married. (Or maybe he did, and Cavendiah just never married. It’s still possible)

Dakota could've just completely ignored him. Cavendish didn't treat him well. So, Dakota had every right to be petty and ignore his entire existence. He had likely gotten married and started a family. And he had a choice to leave that point of his life forgotten, only talking his time as a time traveler, but could’ve avoided mentioning Cavendish at all.

Even though their relationship wasn't healthy and ended on a sour note, Dakota still thought about him often. He focused on the good memories they had because he knew Cavendish was still a good man. Even managing to write an entire chapter in his autobiography about him. (Actually, it’s possible he mentioned Cav throughout the book too, not just a single chapter)

There was something about Cavendish that made him so unique to Dakota after many years later. Same goes for Cavendish with Dakota.

Cavendish is a judgmental and negative person, how could Dakota still see anything distinctively good about him?

But the thing is, Dakota isn’t perfect either. He can be careless at times and sometimes selfish too. They have their flaws, but that's why they work so well. And that's why they need each other.

Cavendish is the voice of reason and prevents Dakota from doing things that’ll get him in trouble. But Dakota’s actions bring excitement into Cavs life.

Without Dakota, Cavendish’s life is sad and left without thrill. Without Cavendish, Dakota has nobody to stop him. He’s free to do whatever he wants without consequence or the rush of being told not to do something.

They completed each other, creating the perfect balance in each others lives. Otherwise, Cavendish would’ve stayed boring. But Dakota would've been free without Cav’s constant arguments. But that wouldn't be a very exciting life for Dakota now would it?

Cavendish risked a life of peace and quiet just to be with Dakota again.

Dakota risked giving up fame, fortune, and a better life for himself just to be with Cavendish again.

And if Cavendish and Dakota WERE married. They risked losing their wives/families to make amends with each other. But due to how lonely they looked in the future, it's likely they never did due to lingering onto each other for so long.

But yeah. Friends totally would break multiple time barriers just to grow old and become famous together by writing books and becoming pop idols.

Sir Joseph Lockwood

I always got on particularly well with Joe, I liked him a lot. I think he was a very clever man and found him a very charming bloke with a sense of humour. So it never got heavy with Joe. He always had his young personal-assistant guy with him, very charming. It was unusual for us, who'd not seen the head of a big company like that that at close hand; with a private life, just to the side of it all. You were seeing power in high places.

Paul talking about Sir Joseph Lockwood in Many Years From Now (emphasis mine)

The "young personal-assistant guy" (William Cavendish) has written a book. All the official materials refer to him as a "good friend" of Sir Joe, but it seems very clear that they were life partners. (As Paul hinted).

Anyway I thought that was interesting context for Joe's comments about the cover of Two Virgins:

Well, then, why not show Paul in the nude? He’s so much prettier!

The page in Many Years From Now:

#though as we all know #gay men aren't attracted to paul mccartney #*cough*#h/t to the-paper-apricot who's not online much at the moment but is still bringing interesting things to my attention

open to: female muse: tom cavendish / odd jobs plot/based on: "it is my grandmother’s birthday so please pretend to be my partner again.”

"please, I promise this is the last time I’m asking you to do this.” tom begged his friend over and over again until she finally agreed on pretending to be his girlfriend for a family reunion. it worked last time, so thomas couldn’t quite understand why she was so hesitant this time. yes, he was lying to his whole family, but he really couldn’t care less about that. it’s not like he kept in touch with his parents anymore after he packed his stuff and left the family house when he was 18. the only times he’s ever been back to that place was to celebrate grandma agnes birthday and he couldn’t really say no to his nan –out of all of the members in that family, she was one the few worth it. “you know the food will be good, and family drama, please?”

BIOGRAPHY

tw: alcoholism

Aindreis Kenneth Oliver Blythe sees light for the very first time on December 10th 1989 in Summerside’s General Hospital, the second biggest on Canada’s smallest province, Prince Edward Island. He’s the second of what would become 5 brothers. Daniél, Aindreis, Tomàs, Ethan and Jonathan. Only three of them would be born on PEI. Indeed, as Tomàs, 7 years younger than Aindreis, was approaching his first birthday, their father, Neil, got the opportunity to go back to North Berwick and take over his retiring father’s fishing company. So they did, they left Canada behind for Bonny Scotland. Aindreis was almost 8 when he put down his little suitcase in his brand new room, in an almost new country where the accent was funny to his young ear. He had never been a tall child, and he was lean, and having skipped a grade, he always found himself among bigger kids. It wasn’t easy, and now he was going to be the new kid. He wasn’t looking forward to that.

Turns out that he didn’t have to. Turns out that North Berwick wasn’t as bad as he thought it would be. His cousins were around, and he met a best friend, Ali, the only kid who decided he was interesting enough to sit next to at the camp fire. North Berwick slowly turned into a home, and Andy couldn’t ask for more. His family was complicated and getting crowded, but he wouldn’t change them for anything in the world. Scotland was more welcoming than he thought, and it sometime reminded him of PEI. Came even a surprising moment when his lips unexpectedly met Ali’s. He’d never thought too much about dating before that, but the unasked question had found an answer. An answer that stayed secret, hidden, to Aindreis’s sadness, but it didn’t matter. He was able to hold his hand at lunch behind the bleachers and maybe that could be enough.

But Richard Siken was right when he wrote “Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is no other version of this story.” Ali left first. Andy didn’t understand. Well, he was never given a head’s up or an answer afterwards. His best friend, his boyfriend, just didn’t dare even meet his eyes in school hallways, and Andy was lost. The rest of high school went by with dimmed colours, but the graduated from his A-levels first of his class. Now, he could leave North Berwick and all the memories, good and bad.

Stars. Andy’s passions had always been the stars, the universe, space, you name it. So he was trying to get closer to them. Astronaut was never his calling. Nasa, maybe one day. Right now, he was heading to Cambridge University on a fellowship for a degree in physics, with a minor in astronomy. It was his dream… And he threw it away. Looking back, it was a combination of so many things. Freshers week and student parties, a bit of lying to oneself that what we’re doing is definitely not a problem, Cambridge University’s tendency to ask troubled students to isolate as to not disturb the studies of others, a “predisposition for substance abuse” as the doctor said after diagnosing him with ADHD during the three long months he spent in rehab after being kicked out of university for being drunk in class.

Sobriety didn’t last long once he left. And he did leave. Roaming around Europe then Canada, spending less than a year in each place, taking on every small job he could. He stopped fleeing at the sight of every serious thing, every problem, everyone in Toronto. Toronto where he stayed longer than anywhere else. 2 years. One of which he spent with his new boyfriend. Relationship he threw away as he threw away 10 month of sobriety, imposed by a dilemma. Me or the alcohol. The alcohol, Caleb, you lose. Andy did lose too. Back to square one, he thought as he stepped back into a rehabilitation centre.

You may wonder where he went next. He went back to the green field and colourful boats of North Berwick. It felt like a failure at the time. That's where he found Ali. Or rather Ali found him and made his way back into his life. North Berwick was also where Aindreis got the opportunity of a lifetime: working for the observation centre in town. Finally getting to work with the stars, his dream. Which led to a move with his own partner to Kismet Harbor, where he had been offered to supervise the new observation centre, the Stellar Horizon Observatory. He couldn't say no.

Once again, Richard Silken proves himself right. Someone has to leave first. Ali left first. Again. After months of hardships of different flavours, there had been a last straw that Aindreis had missed and he found himself alone, bottle in hand, having to face the world.

So I listened to the Something About the Beatles (SATB) latest podcast today, titled “Dear Friend” with the topic of conversation John and Paul’s relationship in the 1970s. So I was thinking that this would be great because I feel like the primary things talked about when the John/Paul 1970s dynamic is discussed is Lennon Remembers, How Do You Sleep and the PlayBoy interview, maybe they’ll throw in the Lost Weekend for balance if they’re feeling so inclined... I’m obviously exaggerating here but... Firstly, before I start my rant, SATB is a good podcast, they usually have great guests (Erin Torkelson Weber the MVP of course), cover interesting topics and Robert Rodriguez is a good host who’s good at challenging things in the story that don’t ring true.

However, I feel like throughout the Beatles active years and into the post break-up years there’s a narrative that has been established that so many people are wedded to, to the point that it’s part of the orthodoxy of the band. In my opinion the narrative is that from first meeting up until the moment that John died Paul was always doing everything to be John’s BFF, he was always trying to be closest to John, no matter what John said or did, Paul would always be the one to try and mend fences and throughout the 70s he was doing whatever he could to end up back working with John. I don’t think this narrative is completely wrong but I think it’s uneven mainly because, in all this, Paul’s importance to John is completely glossed over and John’s manoeuvring to ensure that he was the most important person in Paul’s life is completely missed. So, I just want to highlight some of the instances off the top of my head where I feel that John showed how much he needed to be prioritised in Paul’s life and how much he wanted to mend fences post break-up, that I feel don’t get talked about often enough:

1) John’s competition with Jim McCartney: There’s a lot of stock put into the John-Paul-Stu triangle but that obscures a weird triangle that, maybe Paul wasn’t even aware of, but I think definitely existed which is John-Paul-Jim. By all accounts Jim didn’t want John around and was against John and Paul’s friendship. Jim had a lot of influence over Paul and had a lot of sway as his sole parent once Mary died and I think John was resentful of that. We all know about the ultimatum John gave Paul when he took the job (that Jim implored him to get) which jeopardised his commitment to the band. In John’s eyes and own words, Paul choosing to quit his job to commit fully to the band was Paul choosing John over his dad. No one (in books I’ve only seen Joshua Wolf Shenk discuss this) discusses how Jim was effectively John’s Stu, someone that obstructed his closeness and ability to influence Paul to the point that over a decade later, post break up, John saw Paul focusing on the band as a victory over his dad. John had a jealously of Paul’s closeness and prioritisation of his family that would rear its head further down the road but, by and large, I rarely see this discussed.

2) John’s jealousy of Paul’s other close friendships: On this front, we hear ad nauseam, about Paul’s jealousy of Stu, which is fine because, even without Paul acknowledging it, it’s obvious from space that Paul was jealous of Stu’s closeness to John but we never hear about John’s jealousy of Paul’s other close friendships. All the Beatles were close to Mal Evans but I think Paul was especially close to him (he was the first Beatle to befriend Mal, Mal lived with him at Cavendish for some time, Mal helped Paul write some songs etc.) which got to John. In John’s own words when discussing Magical Mystery Tour he was “choked” when he found out that Paul had come up with the idea with Mal and Mal’s widow has said that Yoko told her that John had told her (whew Chinese whispers time) that he was jealous of Mal’s friendship with Paul... Then there’s Tara Browne, it’s interesting that despite Tara apparently being really friendly and outgoing John never took to him. Maybe it was because Tara was upper class. Maybe it was because after pestering him for months, Paul chose to do LSD with Tara instead of with John and the rest of the band. Maybe it was because Paul invited Tara up to Liverpool, right after Christmas, to hang out with his family resulting in the infamous moped crash. If I put my tin foil hat on, in “A Day in the Life” when John’s reaction to the death of a man in a car crash is “to laugh” is that meaningful? The song is thought to reference Tara but does that passage give us a glimpse into how John saw Tara? If he’s laughing about Tara dying then it sounds like he really didn’t like him, possibly due to his close friendship with Paul.

3) John’s resentment of Paul’s romantic partners: So this one is interesting... There are quite a few examples to walk through so here goes. We have the incident in Hamburg where Paul is in bed with a woman and John (in the aftermath of Stu’s death and probably high on prellies) comes charging in attacking the girl, cutting up her clothes and basically scares her out of the room, maybe that was just the prellies but there seems to be too much of a pattern to ignore. Then there’s Jane of course, we don’t know a ton about John’s interactions with Jane over the years but it’s interesting that he makes a terrible first impression with her (asking her to describe how girls masturbate) and it seems that their relationship is cordial at best going forward (note how Jane and Paul never go on holiday alone with John and Cynthia in the same way George and Ringo did with their respective partners). Peggy Lipton also tells the story about how when she came to hang out with Paul in 1965, John was really rude to her out of nowhere and asked “what she was doing there” and she seemed to think that John couldn’t understand why Paul wanted to take her to dinner if all he was going to do was fuck her. Then, there’s Linda... John consistently gives interviews in the early 70s when he talks about how in a few years Paul will wake up and leave Linda, according to Ray Connolly John couldn’t believe that Paul was staying faithful to Linda and then there’s other weird occurrences in that late 60s/early 70s period. There’s the fan who claims seeing John about to hit a pregnant Linda before Paul stepped in, there’s John rushing to get married as soon as Paul does (8 days later I think which is WILD to me), there’s John describing Paul’s wedding as a “funeral” in ‘71... What does all this tell us? That John was too busy replacing Paul with Yoko to care about Paul anymore? In my book, it’s John’s fears being realised that Paul would always prioritise his family over him when push came to shove, in John’s mind he had won when he was competing with Jim for Paul but once Linda came into the picture and gave Paul the family he always wanted, I think in John’s mind, it was game over. Maybe if Paul had divorced Linda in the 70s (like John predicted) they would have worked together more, we’ll never know, but in a similar way to Yoko, Linda was a wedge in John’s relationship to Paul.

4) John’s attempts post break-up to reach out to Paul: We hear a lot about Paul reaching out to John in the 70s and not engaging with the feuding anymore, it’s Paul that decides not to respond in kind to HDYS, it’s Paul that invites John to the Venus and Mars sessions, it’s Paul going to the Dakota to see/try to see John, it’s always Paul seemingly who misses John and wants to reestablish their relationship. However, according to May Pang, John was happy to do Bangladesh if Paul was doing it too. According to Ray Connolly, John gave him a letter to give to Paul, in the hopes that Paul would call him. According to Paul and other people involved in the One to One concert, John asked Paul to appear with him during his performance in ‘72. And in the face of the backlash from HDYS, John’s the one going around calling Paul his best friend ,other than Yoko, and sending him Beatles bootlegs for Christmas.

All this is to say that John and Paul did not have this one sided relationship where only Paul cared and wanted them to repair things or where only Paul was looking to manoeuvre a situation so he was closest to John, John also wanted to be the closest person in Paul’s life, he was jealously protective of their partnership (see his angry reaction to Paul not coming to him and only him to help with Eleanor Rigby) he also seemed to fear losing Paul to his family which may have happened in his mind, who knows. Because John’s most famous post Beatles interviews have him bashing Paul and Paul’s had 40 years to talk about how much he loved John, there’s this view that Paul loved John more than John loved Paul or that John loved Paul until Yoko came in the picture, at which point Paul was no longer relevant. If Paul meant nothing to John anymore, why did he even bother writing HDYS, if he was so tuned out he wouldn’t have been bothered by Ram, none of the critics were so why was John all over that album more than a Paul is Dead truther?! Why did Yoko block Paul’s calls to John, they were happy to hang out with Ringo, what was so threatening about Paul? Why, according to Robert Rosen, were John’s diaries full of his obsessions about Paul?? We’ll never know a lot of the answers to these questions but I would love it if more podcasts even acknowledged that these questions exist and acknowledged that Paul was such a huge part of John’s life till his dying day: “we have our ups and downs but I would do anything for Paul and I think he would do anything for me” John Lennon December 8 1980.

Apologies for the rant it seems listening to Beatles podcasts always seems to set me off! But SATB is a good podcast, just feel that there are so many interesting conversations that get missed in favour of the usual narrative time and time again, so close but no cigar!

Thanks to @onesweetdreampodcast and @anotherkindofmindpod for being the only podcast I’ve heard to date brave enough to discuss these questions, I think doing that will give us a much better understanding of the Beatles and how their story unfolded.

By the way most of what I referenced above can be found in @amoralto incredible blog, have fun!

How They Kiss 3

some more babies I’ve been thinking about

“Red Haired” Shanks

Another casual/lazy kisser; but boy is also a pervert so expect him to get a bit handsy! It’s not his fault his partner in crime is just too cute to resist! Would literally just peck your lips and grab a feel at your assets while at it!

The crew stops asking why every time he comes back after seeing you he has a black eye or a red handprint on his cheek. They don’t want to know that badly-

Always laughs and swats your fists/slaps away and has this smug cheeky grin that just makes you feel weak in the knees (and he knows it too-).

Surprisingly can be serious when he has to say goodbye, holds your face and looks deep into your eyes as he leans in for a kiss; but still somehow ends with his hand on your butt. It’s like his hands are out to get him and he can’t control it! (”I swear I didn’t mean to this time, it’s just instinct!”)

“Red Flag” X-Drake

He’s a stern kisser (is that a thing?). He treats kisses like his work, with this hard look and determined eyes. It can be a bit intimidating, but is also kind of hot knowing he takes it so seriously!

Will blush a bit and cough awkwardly if s/o kisses him out of the blue. He’s still used to the idea of being with someone and the whole relationship life. He also never had much affection growing up so this is just a whole new world for him.

When s/o leaves after kissing him he has this small smile and it makes him feel wanted and appreciated for once!

Won’t ask for kisses, but has this longing look in his eyes as he looks at your lips and you know right away he wants a kiss; baby is just unsure how to ask or if he even can!

Donquixote “Cora-san” Rosinante

An innocent kisser! Just loves kisses! They remind him of his childhood before all the craziness happened; the nights where he would have a nightmare and his mom would kiss his forehead and sing him to sleep.

Gets really excited after kissing and does a little skip (that sometimes ends in him falling- ha he’s falling for you).

You actually can’t help but giggle at his cuteness which leads him to be confused and wondering what’s so funny. You could tell him, he would just blush and look down all shy; or you could say nothing and he will smile sweetly and go about his day.

Physical affection and words of affirmation are this man’s love languages! So it always makes his day when s/o gives him pecks. Wouldn’t know what to do if things got steamy though; you would have to lead the way!

Rob Lucci

A sadistic kisser! He likes seeing how much it takes until his s/o is wanton and needing something else besides just innocent kisses.

The type to shut you up with a kiss if you two are arguing. He doesn’t like to be insulted and wouldn’t want to raise his voice/hand at you; so what better way to keep you quiet then with his lips?

Doesn’t initiate kisses; s/o has to be the one to do that. If he’s in a particular mood he may give in right away, but most times he wants to know how bad you want it and what you will do for it.

Get’s a bit jealous if you give Hattori pecks; excuse you those lips are his. Will send daggers at you for the rest of the day and will deny you any kisses no matter how much you beg.

Penguin

The boy next door kisser! Has totally read love novels/comics and thinks he is a 10/10 kisser because of it. Is actually pretty confident in his kissing abilities and would bet with the others he can make you a blushing mess.

In reality his kisses are good, but not like fireworks; but you can’t help but smile at how happy he looks knowing you like kissing him.

Gets red when you kiss his cheek or the top of his hat. Makes him feel like some shy teenage boy rather than a cool guy. Would have a quiet voice asking for more while looking at his feet.

Totally loves when you dominate the kisses because it makes him feel safe. Boy is a pirate and has had a tough life himself, so it’s nice knowing he has at least one person he can feel safe with!

Shachi

An inexperienced kisser! Definitely not a bad thing and somewhat sweet to see how nervous and shy he gets. Fixes his shades or messes with his hat while he stares at you (and you’re like “boy you gonna ask or what?”)

Cannot kiss in front of the crew; he knows how embarrassed he gets and will not be put on the list of things they make fun of him for. Tells the crew how awesome he is and how he makes you swoon (I see him and Penguin getting competitive and their s/os are like “If people only knew.”).

Might go to Law for advice and Law just stares at him like, da fuck? Then tries to play it off that this is for his friend/nephew, not him.

Will only take his shades off to kiss you. Didn’t plan on it, but you took them off when you two were about to kiss and now does it every time after!

Cavendish

This isn’t a kissing type, rather a troupe. He’s the player who has kissed everyone, but once with s/o gets so flustered and bashful (like “this for me?” meme).

Can see him with someone who didn’t fall head over heels with him and he has been trying to win them over, but ended up falling for them instead. Is that too cliché? Meh, he’s a cliché guy so it’s fine-

Loves seeing s/o’s smile after kissing and it makes his heart just flutter with joy knowing he can make someone this happy. Used to use kissing for his own amusement/pleasure, now he only wants to see your pleasure!

Wants kisses when he comes back from trips because he missed s/o so much and he was very brave/strong so he deserve some reward!

Bartolomeo

A fanboy kisser! Like just screams/fangirls after kissing! How did he get so lucky to have you as his one and only, his star, his moon, his sun- (okay bro chill).

Loves holding your hands when and after kissing you; actually just wants to hold your hand all the time. It makes him feel loved and cared for, even when he gets obsessive; you still are there for him!

Reminds me of Juvia Lockser; so after a mission/battle wants to go on a date and kiss you!

Would also have a plush version of you that he kisses when you are not there. He sleeps with it too and it is his most prized possession. Not sure if you should be weirded out or not-

If you told him to get rid of it would totally hide it and said he did-

Some Dakavendish Headcanons

- Cavendish started dying his hair gray after one(1) time Dakota called him “blondie”.

- Dakota is actually older than Cavendish, he just aged a lot more gracefully.

- Cavendish was accident prone his entire life. He was almost crushed by furniture as a toddler, he had broken enough bones to know what markers worked best on casts by age six, and he was hit by self-driving cars at least twice a year without fail. This bad luck abruptly stopped after partnering with Dakota, but Cavendish didn’t connect the dots until the Island of Lost Dakotas thing.

- Dakota fears the day Cavendish will somehow meet his mother because he knows she’ll spill about his crush in a heartbeat.

- Cavendish has liked Dakota for years, but legitimately thinks that’s just how people feel towards close friends. When Dakota confesses his feelings, Cav’s brain freezes on a loading screen.

- Dakota once got into an argument with his cousin about how to properly pronounce mozzarella. The argument was yelled over the inter-temporal communicator for over two hours, and in that time Cavendish realized three things: 1) Dakota’s family is very Italian, 2) Dakota has a very noticeable Jersey accent when exposed to it from others, and 3) Dakota’s cousin is an absolute nightmare to argue with, which is probably why Dakota is so good at bickering with Cavendish.

- Cavendish didn’t retain a very good relationship with his parents, so when Dakota introduces him to his family, they pretty much adopt him on the spot.

- When Dakota and Cavendish finally start to officially date, Cavendish is actually really romantic and Dakota is not prepared.

- Even after a decade, Dakota randomly remembers Cavendish’s facial hair when he was first trying to grow out a mustache and shudders.

Milo Murphy’s Law Theory

Okay I’m sure somewhere out there someone has had a theory like this. However! I just wanted to put it down in my own words, mostly to get it out of my head.

In a short, my theory is that Balthazar Cavendish and his lovely partner Vinnie Dakota, (If not the entire time traveling agency) are the reason Milos family are cursed with Murphy's law.

Evidence! I hear you cry into the void, yes. Well the best I can offer you is theoretical science. (I hear you complaining in the background well you don’t have to listen...lol.)

Theoretical Science time!

According to the laws of time travel, you might know this one. You go back in time and step on a butterfly and next thing you know all of humanity has never been born. Now the problem with this is that there are many theories saying that if you change time you can erase yourself from existence. However if you did that you then couldn’t have gone back in time and changed things in the first place. Causing a Paradox. Or less commonly known as Circular causation, you can’t change the past if you don’t exist

Now on the other hand, there is a theory that you can change history causing yourself to never having been born but still existing to be the one to go back in time and change that point in history. Basically if you change a point in time you’re not changing your version of time but instead creating an alternate time line that runs parallel to your own. The future you return to you may not have been born but can still exist because you are from a timeline where you were born and are just riding the waves through a new timeline. Basically visiting an alternate earth where the history was change and you never existed.

There's a ton more like this, such as self fulfilling prophecy, you couldn’t change time because what happened. Happened and you were suppose to do what you did anyways.

Basically Time travel’s a messy.

However by changing history, you can cause unknown havoc. Example (though not proven by science) you drop a rock in the ocean in California. The ripples that the rock causes become bigger and more dangerous eventually reaching Japan not as ripples but as tidal waves. Causing havoc.

(For examples look at Futurama, Rick and Morty, or The Flash.)

Now if you are still reading theirs another time travel theory this one actually relating to my idea. This time theory states that if you do change history the time line will try to fix itself to change around it. Something small like stepping on a butterfly that was suppose to pollenate some flowers. It will make another bug or even wind do it instead, no big deal. Yet, if you do something big like prevent the death of a President. The timeline will have them die another time, car ride home heart attack. It will change history but not by much and is a lot harder for the timeline to fix. Sometimes that little rock becomes a tidal wave that hits but doesn’t kill who wasn’t already meant to die.

A lot of time this will effect those closest or those related to the target. Which Theory Time! Loops me back to Cavendish and Dakota. The time travelers who don’t follow the rules of time travel. My theory is the Milos families curse is because the timeline is trying to fix itself.

In the episode ‘The Island of Lost Dakotas’ (Spoilers ahead) we learn that one of our favorite characters Cavendish has ‘died’ many times over. Each time Dakota has gone back in time and changed the outcome. Saving his friend and then his past self goes on a trip to a lost island where versions of himself are making shoes and watching film of his travels with his friend.

Now one or twice the timeline would just change how Cavendish dies, but Dakota keeps changing it. Which means that the timeline can’t fix itself the easy way. Instead the pebble Dakota keeps dropping is rippling back in time.

If we follow this theory this means that either Cavendish or Dakota are related to the Murphy's. Great great ex. grandchild of Milo Murphy. Now based off the show it sounds as if the curse only effects the males of said family and follows the name not the people of the family. Which means that one of Milos kids finally change their last name perhaps in an effort to end the curse only to give birth to the curser or just another Murphy with a different last name.

Well other than them not sharing the Murphy name, one of them could still be a Murphy.

Dakota is a popular choice, the bad things happen around him and though he doesn’t look much like Murphy’s family being a great something descendant he could still be. Especially with Milos love interest looking more like Dakota, and we can expect Milo and Amanda end up together in the end. Also we can see that in Milos experience the Murphy law effects the people around him equally if not more than it does the Murphy's themselves. So if Dakota is a descendant his curse would effect Cavendish as much if not more than it effect himself.

Now the best bet under this thought is that it’s Cavendish whos related to Milo. Between the two Cavendish looks more like Milo having the family hair trait. As well as the same body type as Milos father and Great ex. grandfather the original Murphy. Body types of all the characters at first look fairly similar but things from their noses to face shapes and body types tend to stay accurate within families. This means that through his family ties all the bad things that ‘kill’ him ripple back and instead effect his family.

Cavendish’s deaths over and over again would effect the timeline. It would try fixing itself, effecting every last member of Cavendishs family. The epicenter being Milos ancestor the original Murphy in his own time travel version of the Bermuda triangle. Creating the Murphy law that the timeline needed to exist anyways. Now since the time line can’t kill any of the past Murphy's it also explains why the Murphy’s are so good at escaping deadly situations. The timeline can’t kill them but it sure can mess with them.

Now if neither of them are related to Murphy then it just means that there relationship with Milos family, Dr.D. (Spoiler- Professor Time), and the time agency. All the things they change through out time made a time Bermuda triangle where the OG Murphy lived. These negative probability particles in that triangle could potentially be causing his family to be effected by it until those particles eventually run out if they run out.

Now this theory is lengthy and all over the place. So here’s the long and the short of it.

Cavendish or Dakota or even the time agency itself. Are the reason Milo and his family are cursed with Murphy’s law. By changing time they cause havoc which is centered around the Murphy family, because of their personal if not family related relationships with Time agency.

You don’t have to believe me honestly I just needed to write this down to get it out of my head. I’ve got many more theories about other tv shows, that might or might not be coming your way.

Apologies

AO3 link

“You wiped my memory !”

“To protect you ! Look, can we talk about this later ?”

“You were only thinking about yourself…”

Note : Just something I wanted to write due to how I feel like Cavendish didn’t earn Dakota’s pardon, given how much of a mess Dakota was compared to Cavendish not being seen having any regrets aside from the teddy bear at the end of “Abducting Murphy’s Law” (I’m 100% going to write some kind of essay about Cavendish’s arc in this season). And yes, this is yet another fic about Cavendish going rogue (I think this one is actually the first one I wrote. You can tell because the 'married couple’ part isn’t directly said).

Like for my other fics, the two are an old married couple. Enjoy !

It was about nighttime on earth and Milo’s group was still in space. After saving Octalia, the group had been given a new ship, with five other ships piloted by the Octalians as backup. But so far, things were going smoothly with no major incident, which was a relief for Balthazar. Now aware of his track record of not staying alive, he would rather avoid any unexpected disaster, especially so late at night.

With the late hour and the action from earlier, the group was starting to feel sleep fall upon them. Milo and his two friends were drifting off to sleep, sitting against a wall and each other with Diogee at their foot. Professor Ti- Doofenshmirtz was curled up in a ball on the ground, resembling a sleeping cat, with Perry in his arms. The platypus seemed to have wished to guard the man, only for his future time partner to grab him in his sleep.

And speaking of time partners…

Balthazar looked around, seeing no-one else aside from the kids, the professor and that hybrid of himself with his new baby, sleeping in a corner that Balthazar was trying to avoid looking at. He scanned the ship until he saw what looked like the entrance of another room. Trying not to feel uneasy by the similitude with the other ship, knowing full well what happened last time he tried to explore, Balthazar made sure that the ship was on autopilot and went to the other room.

As he expected, Vinnie was there, sitting against the entrance’s wall, his head resting on his knees while his arms were hugging his legs. While his eyes were closed, Balthazar could tell that he wasn’t sleeping.

“Dakota ?”

The shorter man opened his eyes, slowly giving a lazy smile as he glanced at the other man.

“Hey.”

“Why aren’t you with the others ?”, Balthazar asked.

“I just wanted some space.”, Vinnie shrugged.

Balthazar didn’t respond, not knowing what to say, and started looking around, glancing at his partner every few seconds. He could tell from his posture that something was bothering the shorter man. Vinnie didn’t recoil often, and he seemed tense. Eventually, Balthazar couldn’t take the silence anymore and decided to make small talk.

“So. It seems we’ve saved the world yet again.”

“Yeah. And nobody on earth saw us do it. Again.”

“I…”, the idea never dawned on Balthazar during his time on Octalia, and the realization hit him like a ton of bricks. Unless he could show P.I.G. one of the ships, which was very unlikely with Milo around, he was back to square one. “Sadly, you’re correct.”, he sighed.

“So what are you going to do now ?”, Vinnie continued, his voice sharper. “Go rogue and leave again ?”

Balthazar immediately looked at his partner. The shorter man was looking down with the same upset expression as when they first reunited. Balthazar felt a pang of guilt that his pride tried to repress. Didn’t they make up already ?

“I told you already, I’m sorry.”, he tried not to sound annoyed. Vinnie seemed upset enough. “What I did was foolish.”

“It sure was.”, the shorter man replied like it was a fact.

“Why are we even talking about this ? I thought you forgave me !”, he was starting to actually get annoyed.

“I didn’t forgive you ! I was happy to see you. It was my relief talking.”

Balthazar had a reply that died down before it came out. There was no point in arguing about it, or at least not now when they were both too tired to make sense. So instead, the taller man hmphed and went back to inspect the room. For a good five minutes, the couple fell silent, until Vinnie spoke up again in a softer tone.

“You could’ve died.”

“Excuse me ?”, Balthazar asked, stepping closer to Vinnie to hear him. The shorter man looked much sadder and tired, hugging his knees tightly while looking at the ground.

“There was just so many ways you could’ve died. Murdered, ran by a car, mauled by a bear, crushed by a falling tree, falling deadly ill, abducted by evil aliens, stung to death, struck by lightning, ”

Balthazar froze as Vinnie just kept going on and on, making the list of a hundred different ways one could die. Just how many of those truly happened ?

“Dakot-“

“I thought about it. Every single night I stayed awake, imagining all the things that could kill you. And for the past week I thought you really were dead.”

“…Dakota…”, Balthazar crouched in front of his partner, his hands grabbing the shorter man’s shoulders. “Dakota I’m so sorry. I haven’t thought…I- I haven’t considered this.”

“Of course you didn’t. You were too obsessed with your want to save the world to consider how I was feeling.”, Vinnie was glancing away.

“I…I did. And it was foolish. I’m sorry Dakota, I truly am. Believe me, I never wished to hurt you.”

His partner didn’t reply. Balthazar sighed sadly and went to sit next to him.

“I missed you dearly, you know.”, he tried. “I felt so alone without you…”

It was Vinnie’s turn to sigh. “Look Cavendish. I- I don’t want to be mad at you. I’m not angry at you. I just…you just have no idea how terrible I felt ! It’s like you don’t even care !”

“I…”, the taller man had to stop himself from arguing about that last thought. Of course he cared about Vinnie ! More than anything in the world ! It wasn’t his fault if his partner was so paranoid !

Alright, maybe it was partly his fault. But still ! “Well…maybe you worry too much ?”

“I found you frozen in an ice cube.”, the shorter man deadpanned.

“I…”, Balthazar sighed. “I know…”

They fell silent again, Balthazar guilt growing with every passing second. Tentatively, he put a hand on his partner’s shoulder, rubbing gently. After a few minutes, Vinnie’s hand joined his, their fingers interlocking.

“I thought I’d never see you again.”, Vinnie whispered.

“That was never my intention.”, the taller man tried to reassure. “I didn’t want to leave you, especially for so long. I thought it would only take me a few days. And with how you refused to support me…”, he sighed again. “I should have listened to you.”

“You should’ve.”

“…You know I love you, right ? I never meant to hurt you.”

“Well you sure have a weird way of showing it sometimes.”, despite what he was saying, Vinnie was starting to get his smile back. This made the taller man hopeful.

The couple smiled at each other until Vinnie pulled in closer, a hand on his partner’s back and another on his shoulder. Balthazar returned the gesture, cupping Vinnie’s cheek and slowly lifting his sunglasses, knowing that the light was dimmed enough not to hurt his eyes. He gazed into Vinnie’s peculiar eyes until the shorter man pulled closer and kissed him.

“I love you.”, Vinnie whispered as they pulled away.

“I missed you.”, Balthazar replied with his own whisper. “And I’m sorry.”

“I know.”

They stayed in each other’s arms, enjoying the other’s presence after a month of separation. A part of Balthazar stayed alert in case somebody was to walk in, following the habit he had for eighteen years of hiding his relationship in any time period that wasn’t his present.

They still had a lot to say, still had a few fresh wounds to patch. But for now, being together was all that mattered.

Masked Prince

Hi all! =D

This is the second piece i write, and this one is for @nakunakunomi ‘s 750 followers event, Cliché with Hazel!

The cliché prompt i was given: We met and danced at a masked ball but i don’t know who you are.

Random word to include: thumb.

Warnings: there’s some swearing and foul language. Basically the Vinsmokes, mainly Yonji, being abusive little shits.

I love Sanji, he’s the sweetest, so i hope i made him justice! I really hope anyone who reads this likes it and enjoys it!

You finished your shift at the cafe you worked at and went straight to your best friend’s place, he had sent you a message asking to meet him ASAP. When you entered your best friend's bedroom, you found him surrounded by a huge variety of dresses.

“You’re late! We have so much to do!” he said getting up and running towards you. Cavendish was the heir of a big company and wasn’t used to the fact that other people had to work for a living and had tight schedules.

“What’s all this? Are you dressing up?” you said pointing at the gowns, “You’d look so elegant in the purple one!” you continued, pointing at it but not touching it. You were scared of ruining them because they all looked incredibly expensive.

“They’re for you, silly” he said smiling, “C’mon, start trying them on, we don’t have all day! The ball is tonight!”

“...what ball?” you asked afraid that this might be another one of his rich boy adventures.

Cavendish handed you a very fancy invitation card for a masquerade ball and explained the ball to you. It was for heirs and heiresses of big companies only, ment for them to mix and mingle without the lower classes around. And even seal some deals and arrange marriages.

“The good thing is, everyone has to be disguised, so no one will know it’s you!” Canvendish said excitedly, but seeing your frown, he added “You need to get out once in a while and have fun, no one will know you’re a waitress, not with this beautiful sapphire gown and the invitation card” he finished with a smile, and also handed you an elaborate silver mask.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"A masquerade ball? Why aren't any of you going? You know i’m busy..." Sanji asked his brothers, who didn't even bother to look at him.

"Cos you're the only one who can make a good impression in this stupid things" said Yonji, the only one who at least looked at him, “And the only busy you should get is with some lady, so you could strike a deal and be useful to the family for once” he added mockingly.

"You have no say in this, you're going, so put on your suit" added Ichiji.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You found yourself stepping out of Farul, Cavendish's favourite car, and following a candlelight path surrounded by marble statues. The venue for the ball was one of the most luxurious mansions in your city, and it couldn't have been more fitting for the event. There was a romantic aura surrounding it, and you started to think that maybe Cavendish was right, this could be fun.

When you offered your invitation to one of the doormen you couldn’t help but overhear the other guests' conversations. Economics, finances, you knew nothing about those subjects so you couldn’t help but start to feel out of place. What if someone noticed you weren't anyone important?

You started to avoid conversations and group gatherings all together, and pretended to be injured when someone asked you to dance, because you didn’t know how to ballroom dance either. Luckily for you, the food was amazing, so you tried almost everything and, being a waitress yourself, you started to fraternize with the staff. You even helped a waitress to clean her clothes when a pretentious rich kid threw wine on her.

You decided to catch some fresh air and went to the balcony. It was a beautiful balcony, surrounded by rose bushes, with marble columns and a bench...a bench occupied by one of the guests.

Deeming it inappropriate to go back inside, you politely asked him if you could sit besides him. He nodded and offered you a cigarette, which you declined. He wore a black suit, nothing too flashy like other guests, but very elegant, and a black mask with a few golden details that suited his blond hair.

"You've been quite the talk of the ball already" he said after a long silence and turned to look at you with a tired smile. "What is a beauty like you doing in a place like this?" he asked, a phrase that he had learned from a romance novel he had hidden under his bed. But he didn't expect the effect it had on you.

Suddenly you felt cold, anxious, he found out that you weren’t any heiress and was gonna drag you in front of the others, clearly.

"I--I'm not doing anything and how can you say I'm a beauty when you haven't even seen my face?!?!" you said getting up, but he grabbed your hand, gently, and didn't let you leave.

"I’m sorry, I didn't want to upset you, I just wanted to talk for a while…, and you're right I haven't seen your face but I don't need to see it when your soul is crealy the most beautiful here" he said, getting up, "I've seen you help that waitress, and if you'd like, I'd love to be your partner for a dance" he almost pleaded.

"I--I don't...know...how to dance?" You stuttered, afraid of the effect that such revelation would make. Everyone here was taught the expected protocol, and of course all of them knew how to dance.

He stood, left your hand, and turned to the rose bushes to pick up a rose. When he turned he offered you the warmest smile, took off the thorns and put the rose on your hair.

"Makes sense you're pretending to be injured then," he said while offering you his hands to dance, "just follow my lead, my princess".

With his warm hands in yours, you saw that he cut his thumb, probably with the rose's thorns, you thought, and you retrieved and started searching in a hidden pocket you had.

"Wha-what's wrong?" he asked, clearly confused and...sad? Did he really care and wasn't just playing?

"You cut your thumb! Here, let me!" you said warmly, and put a colorful band aid on it. "Maybe it's a bit too childish for you? It's the only one I have..."

"I love it!" he said, cutting you and seemingly flustered, with blush appearing on his ears, "you're... you’re too kind". And he proceeded to put a hand on your lower back and grab yours with the other.

You started to dance and clumsily follow him. Under the stars and surrounded by roses, to the muted music that came from the inside, you forgot about classes and money. You started talking about everything and started to call him "Mr Prince" in response to him calling you "My Princess", which you both found amusing.

But after a while the music stopped, and you knew it meant the masquerade ball was over, and you had to part ways, probably forever.

He asked for you to meet him again, but your fear of rejection once he found out your real income and class was too big, and you left without saying goodbye, disappearing in the crowd.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Feelings of regret flooded you since you disappeared from the ball last night, never before you had such a connection with someone, but what could you do now? You knew nothing about him, not even his name, because your insecurities and fears took the best of you.

Your shift was almost finished in the cafe you worked at when a guy with green hair came in, followed by a blond guy and a woman with pink hair.

While you were taking the pink hair's orders and scribbling her name in the cup, you couldn't help but overhear the green hair picking on the blond.

"Why are you wearing this stupid band-aid, anyways? It's childish and pathetic as fuck" he said, "At least tell me you scored last night at the ball, you have to keep our reputation, you know?"

"Reputation of disgusting pervs” said the pink haired woman, turning towards her brothers, “Sanji is better than this". Sanji rolled his eyes and came closer to the counter and finished their order.

"Excuse my brother and his manners" he said to you with an apologetic smile, "how much is it?" he said while taking out his wallet. And then you saw it, the band-aid on his thumb. Just like the ones you usually carried around.

Your blood froze and you started to feel dizzy, you started to ponder if it could really be last night’s prince. The comments his brother made and the band-aid he wore in the exact thumb were pointing towards it.

With your heart beating faster than ever, you couldn't help but wonder but in an impulse of bravery you wrote "Mr Prince" in his cup instead of his name, hoping that if it was him, he'd recognize you.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outside the cafe, Sanji couldn't stop thinking of that waitress' weirdly familiar voice, when Yonji gave him his cup.

"Ha! Mr Prince...you didn't score with a nice heiress but you scored with the waitress...you really are a pathetic good-for-nothing!" said Yonji reading Sanji's cup.

Sanji, in shock, looked at his cup. Everything made sense now, of course your voice sounded so familiar! He thought you were of lower income but an heiress anyways, but no, you were a waitress that sneaked their way into the ball! That’s why you were so weirdly secretive last night!

He rushed inside, leaving his siblings confused, excited by the sudden realization.

You were ready to leave the cafe for the day, feeling like the biggest idiot. “Maybe it wasn’t him?” you wondered, “or maybe he didn’t care about you if you were a waitress, afterall you two were from different worlds…” you kept thinking, feeling like a fool for having the slightest hope.

But when you were already heading for the door, he came in.

"Princess!" He called when he saw you, leaving you confused and flustered at hearing him calling you that endearing nickname again.

Sanji came closer to you and grabbed your hands and kissed them, leaving you like a blushing mess, unable to say a word.

"I feel like the dumbest man in the world...could you ever forgive me for not recognizing you right away?"

"How...How could you? We were disguised and i'm...i'm a..." you answered pointing at the counter, but he caressed your cheek, leaving you speechless again.

"You're the beautiful woman that came into my life last night" he said tenderly, "Would you do me the honor of joining me for lunch? I'd love to get to know you properly" he finished with the sweetest smile.

And how could you say no?

The room was dark, but comfortable. Dakota was near his partner, Cavendish, and they were safe. Safe to do whatever they wanted. Safe to talk about whatever they wanted.

“How did you tell your parents you were gay?”

“Ha!” Dakota laughed. “They don’t even know, Balth. I left home before I had the chance to tell them. I was sixteen when I moved out and honestly, I’m glad I did. I dunno how I woulda ended up if I’d actually stayed there and finished high school. Probably wouldn’t have met you.”

Cav blushed and softly put a hand on Vinnie’s thigh. “What made you move out?”

Dakota sighed. “Well, I kinda had a feeling they didn’t like queer folk, and I was also constantly arguing with them about politics and that kind of crap. I was going by different pronouns and a different name when I left, and they probably still think I use ‘em. But, it’s whatever. I don’t owe ‘em anything. It’s been years and they still haven’t tried to talk me, so I think it’s good riddance. For both me and my parents.”

Balth took Vinnie’s hand and squeezed it gently. “You don’t have to have your parents around you, especially if they’re awful. I was lucky, I think.”

“Oh, yeah? Did you end up telling your parents at any point?”

“I was about twenty by the time my friends kind of coaxed it out of me,” Cavendish admitted. “I kind of had no idea I was gay until after I graduated high school. I think my parents knew but they never said anything. I didn’t have a girlfriend at any point through school.”

“Eh, you don’t have to,” Dakota said. “I didn’t have my first kiss until I was like, nineteen. And it was at some random sophomore college party I went to; I didn’t even know who it was.”

“Huh,” Cavendish sighed. “I never got the teenage years I had hoped for. It was a bit of bullying through school and no wild parties like a typical teen would have had.”

“I went to parties,” Dakota explained. “I’d have a few beers, probably smoke something as well, and then I’d be home at 2am. I never hosted though. My apartment was way too small.”

“I feel like I would have hated them if I had actually gone to them,” Cavendish said, getting a chuckle out of Dakota. “Why the laugh?”

“You’ve been tightly wound your whole life, Cav. There’s no way you would have actually had fun at a party, what with all the loud music, breaking stuff, vomiting outside after chugging a whole keg... need I go on?”

Cav chuckled. “No, I think I get it.” He smiled at his partner, just slightly being able to make out his features in the dark room.

Dakota seemed to read his mind. “You want the lamp on?”

“No, it’s fine. I can see you perfectly,” Cavendish said, placing his hand on Dakota’s cheek.

Dakota leaned into his hand, moving closer to Cav. He let out a tired sigh.

“It’s such a pity your parents didn’t want to spend time with you. You are one of the most interesting people I know.”

“You reckon?”

“Of course, Dakota. There is nobody I would rather spend all of my time with than you.” He gently lifted Dakota’s face up to give him a kiss on the forehead, making Dakota smile.

Ao3 here

Diana Cavendish, heir to the Cavendish house, descendant of one of the Nine Old Witches, the best student to have stepped on Luna Nova in nearly a hundreds years, savior of magic and one of the Nine New Witches, had never in her life touched a freakin pan, much less used an oven, the only thing that she knew how to make was tea and that because — in the words of certain American witch — she had an "British and aristocratic addiction" with that drink.

But that was going to change today, or at least that's what the blonde had proposed to herself, because today was an important day, today was her 1 year anniversary of dating a certain noisy little witch, and after a lot of work and effort she decided that the the best gift she could make would be to cook something without magic — of course —, besides, how difficult would it be to bake cookies .......?

Apparently much more than she expected, the heiress was a mess, her hair was ill-fitting in a ponytail, both her apron and face were full of flour, her hands smelled a little bit like eggs, and she had chocolate chips stuck around her neck, and what to say about the kitchen? — which the goblins had lent her very kindly — it had dough everywhere, sugar on the floor, a suspicious cookie on the ceiling and also, the smell of burning abounded.

In the first batch the girl had burned the cookies, in the next one they seemed to be fine until the moment she tried them and realized that she had confused sugar with salt, in the third - somehow — she managed to make them explode , - So that’s how the cookie reached the ceiling! — surprisingly this ones tasted good, but they were not very nice looking, because they were a little burned —and exploited — so she discarded them.

The blonde was running out of time to be able to get to her date with Akko on time, and without cookie dough to make more than one last tray, so this would be the last batch that she would put in the oven, it was all or nothing, if she failed she would have to make them taste at least a little good with magic, which Akko would not like, so with a little fear — how can anyone be afraid of cookies? — she put them in the oven. While this happened the witch began to clean the kitchen

"Doing this was a mistake" the girl spoke alone "Akko would have been happy with a teddy bear" she sighed as she massaged the temples of her eyes because of the approaching headache

"Miss, are you going to vacate the kiiiit...chen?" One of the goblins asked her as he entered the place with a horror face

"Sure, I apologize for the disaster, I will vacate the place in about 10 minutes, if there is no problem?" she responded in the kindest way she could in the middle of her little breakdown — which wasn’t a great way—

"Y-yes, miss, I'll be back in a few minutes" The goblin stuttered a little nervously and left the kitchen

"Yes, a complete mistake" sighed a second time and then continue collecting her disaster

After cleaning the kitchen and taking out the lightly burned cookies, Diana left to her room to take a very much necessary bath and prepare for her date, the clothes she had chosen were really not a big deal, a sky blue baggy top, a skirt of the same color and a pair of white sneakers.

After arriving the meeting place Diana was not surprised at not seeing Akko, a year had already passed and anyway the brunette managed to be late to of all her dates —even when Diana picked her up from her room—

But whatever, Diana took a seat on a bench near her meeting point, which was in front of The Last Wednesday Society, because apparently that was Akko's favorite place in town.

Minutes later Akko had come running, sweating and with a couple of branches in her hair, apologizing for her delay and explaining why — apparently some squirrels attacked her? — after this they both started their long-awaited date, They walked through the small streets of the town, had an ice cream, and Akko danced for a while with a group of street artists, everything was perfect, but anyway Diana could not bear the anxiety of knowing if the damn cookies tasted good, because, how the hell was it possible that the perfect Diana Cavendish failed baking cookies? She spent the entire appointment thinking about that small box full of cookies she had left in her room.

The sun was already down and it was time for both of them to return to the academy, Akko chattered on about how Sucy had used her as a guinea pig a few days ago and how she had to spend all day with a fish tank on her head because apparently she had grown gills, they got to the Line Line and they went back to school.

When they get inside the academy Akko ran to her room in search of the gift that she would give to Diana, while the blonde walked to hers in search of the little box with cookies

'What if she doesn't like them?' The heiress thought on the way to her room 'I couldn't blame her, they probably aren't well done, I should have asked Hannah and Barbara for help, they probably would have known what to do' when she opened the door of her room, she met the two girls she was thinking about, both of them were sitting in the couches of their small living room, Barbara was reading some of the Nightfall shots and Hannah was talking to someone —probably Amanda— with the phone that Constanze had managed to get inside the academy

"How did your date go?" Asked the dark-haired girl looking up from her book

"Fine, thanks for asking, right now I just came to pick up the little present that I am going to give Akko" Diana said with a sigh going to her part of the room behind the bookcase

"That doesn't sound like it went ‘fine’, Akko didn't do anything stupid this time, did she?" Hannah said as she left her cell phone on the small table and approached her blonde partner

"No, I don't think so, everything went perfectly, I'm just a little worried about the gift I'm going to give her" she sighed — for the second time — and ran her hand through her hair as she collected the little pink box

"What's bothering you? You know that whatever you give her she is going to love it, she is completely head over heels for you” Bárbara also get up to go with her teammates

"Well, what did you prepare? I don't think there is anything very difficult for the powerful Diana Cavendish” The girl with the yellow bow said in a cocky tone

"Exactly! Whatever you done has to be perfect! ” Her black-haired companion continued enthusiastically

"..." Diana with a little doubt turned to see her friends and after sighing —for the third time in a row — she said in a whisper "... cookies ..."

"What did you say?" Hannah said doubtfully

"C-cookies" the heiress stammered while avoiding seeing her teammates

"Cookies?" Hannah asked again

"Yes ..." Diana replied with a little fear

"And what are you worried about? Nothing can go wrong with baking cookies…” Barbara said with a bit of confusion until she turned to see Diana's face that was painted with a bit of anxiety “… right? ”

After that conversation Diana told them everything that happened in the kitchen and how she managed to make a cookie stick to the ceiling or how she put salt instead of sugar in her mixture, each time she told more about it the faces of support and understanding began to erase from the faces of Hannah and Barbara to become one of confusion, when she finished recounting her little adventure in the kitchen, both girls turned to see each other and had a silent conversation while Diana was having an other breakdown

"Well, well, well, they couldn't have gone so bad, they are just cookies, let us try one, right Barbara?" Hannah said giving a side glance at Barbara

"Sure...?" Said her friend

"Are you sure? You really don't have to worry, anyways I was already planning to do something else with magic, I know that trying to make cookies was a mistake" Diana told them, because she did not plan to intoxicate her teammates "also, I already I have to go meet Akko before the curfew ”

"Just give us one, Barbara will try it" Hannah replied as she shot an apologetic look at her best friend

"Okay, as you say" Diana put the small box on the table and began to open it very carefully.

Meanwhile Barbara was looking at Hannah desperately because logically she did not want to have to go to the infirmary for a probable food poisoning.

Diana took one of the cookies and gave it to Barbara while she was giving her best friend one last look of terror. Barbara took the cookie to her mouth and gave it a good bite, Diana looked at her with a little hope while Hannah looked at her with fear, the girl finished chewing and swallowed her bite, then turned to see her teammates and say

Hey! They taste better than I thought! Just a little burned and a little hard, but they taste pretty good. ”She took the remaining piece in her hand and brought it to her mouth once again.

"See? I told you everything was going to be fine, now, go get your girl!" Hannah said as she led her to the door of the room “tell us what happened when you come back!” she said goodbye to the blonde

“How bad was it?” she said after closing the door and turning to see Barbara

“I think I'm going to get sick” the black-haired girl said to run to the bathroom and spit out the piece that was still in her mouth

Diana with renewed hopes walked to the Memorial Tree of the Great Witch Jennifer, she walked with her typical pride and her smug smile, when she arrived surprisingly she found Akko already waiting for her with a bouquet of blue lilies and a small box of the same color

"Sorry for the delay, I got distracted by a conversation with Hannah and Barbara" Diana apologized as she approached her girlfriend

"It's okay! Don't worry, I'm always late everywhere! ” Akko said with a little laugh "Well lets stop talking and take this!" the Japanese gave her the bouquet of lilies and the small box “I know it is not much, and you can not use it if you don't want to, also I did it thinking of you, but it's fine if you don't like it! I'm just saying I thought you would ”said the brunette while making many gestures with her hands to explain herself

Diana put the bouquet of flowers on her left forearm and the box of cookies on the right and then she carefully opened her gift, when removing the lid she found a necklace with only a blue sphere hanging from it.

"Every time you touch the sphere you will feel a kiss on your cheek ..." explained the brunette with a small blush on her cheeks "... or at least that's what it’s supposed to do, I did it with the help of Chariot-Sensei, I hope you like it ”continued the Japanese while scratching the back of her neck nervously

Diana watched adoringly as she pulled it completely out of the box

"Can you help me put it on?" she asked the crimson-eyed girl as she parted her hair to reveal her neck.

“O-of course!" stuttered the Asian girl as she put the necklace on her

"Thank you very much, it's beautiful," she said while she kissed her girlfriend on the cheek.

"Now I feel a little bad about my gift" said the heiress with resignation

"What do you mean? Whatever you are going to give me it will be more than perfect! ” Akko replied after coming out of her little shock

"Sorry anyway if it's not what you expected, after all it didn't turn out the way I expected" said the blue-eyed girl handing over the pink box.

As Akko opened her gift —With less care than Diana — the blonde had her third mental breakdown in less than 24 hours —new record! — on the outside, either way, she looked firm as usual. Akko managed to open the box and saw 14 beautiful — and not symmetrical —cookies with a slightly burnt edge

"Cookies!" The Japanese said with emotion as she turned to see an unstable Diana “Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" she continued while making small jumps

"You prepared them?!" she said with stars in her eyes

"Well ... yes ... sorry if they not taste good, it was my first time cooking" The blonde admitted with a bit of regret

"Wow! Really? I didn't know your first time was with me” she said giving her a flirtatious look

"Akko!" The blushing blue-eyed girl exclaimed

"Ya, ya, sorry, I couldn't help it" she laughed "but seriously, thank you very much! I bet they will taste delicious! ” She said to take one and take it to her mouth

"If you don't like them, you don't have to eat them, okay?" Diana answered "I know you were expecting a perfect gift or something well done at least, sorry for not giving it to you, I know that making them was probably a mistake" she continued saying with a small drop of sadness

"Hey! Thish cookiesh tashte ... holdn ohn" the Japanese had begun to speak with her mouth full, knowing that her girlfriend did not understand her due to the obvious face of confusion, the brunette swallowed what was in her mouth and continued" Okey now, these cookies are delicious! And they are more than perfect because you made them, and I don’t say it because you are the perfect 'Diana Cavendish', I say it because you are my imperfect 'Diana' who makes mistakes but solves them, who helps others and works daily to be better, who wants to make this a better world, that's why, for me these are the best cookies in the world, and you are the best girlfriend in the world” the brunette finished, and then gave the blonde a big hug "Besides, they do taste pretty well" the crimson-eye girl reconfirmed...

Diana Cavendish, heir to the Cavendish house, descendant of one of the Nine Old Witches, the best student to have stepped on Luna Nova in nearly a hundreds years, savior of magic and one of the Nine New Witches, had never in her life touched a freakin pan, much less used an oven, the only thing that she knew how to make was tea and that because — in the words of certain American witch — she had an "British and aristocratic addiction" with that drink.

But that changed today, because today, she made the most delicious cookies — According to Akko —in the universe, because although they were a little burned, they were not perfect circles and they were a little salty, they made the most important person in her life smile.

‘After all, this was not such a terrible idea’

Extra:

Akko finished the cookies that same night.

Suspiciously both she and Barbara had to miss an entire week of classes due to a terrible food poisoning, Diana also missed the classes because she had to take care of both of them

I Got Your Back

Well, I’m going to attempt to put a fanfiction on Tumblr and see if it gets any attention. Who knows? I recommend reading this if you:

1. Love Cavendish and Dakota

2. Like to read fanfictions of Cavendish and Dakota

3. Like to read angsty fanfictions of Cavendish and Dakota. :D

Enjoy!

Part 1

Balthazar Tiberius Cavendish Time Traveler – Second Class Bureau of Time Travel

Cavendish had to reread the badge a few times for it to fully settle in. His cheeks hurt from smiling. A few months and several successful missions later, he and his partner were classified and given their official badges. His temporary paper badge read “Time Traveler – Rookie” instead of “Time Traveler – Second Class.” That badge now sat safely in a scrapbook in Cavendish’s flat. At last, he would receive more important missions. He would prove himself as a hero who could save the world. If only Professor Time could see his accomplishments.

There was just one thing Cavendish still needed time for adjustment: Vinnie Dakota, his partner.

After Block introduced the pair, Cavendish and Dakota spent time getting better acquainted. Cavendish’s first impression of the crazy-haired man seemed correct. Dakota was lazy, casual, and food focused. In fact, he insisted on them having lunch together to learn more about each other.

Still, Cavendish reasoned to himself that Dakota did have the makings of a good agent. Agent Morgan Fae, Dakota’s old partner and mentor, spoke so highly of him. “He already completed several missions with me and received a few honors for commendable actions in the field,” she had told Cavendish at a recent retirement party for another agent. Ergo, Cavendish tried to give Dakota the benefit of the doubt. After all, it was Dakota’s field skills and Cavendish’s book knowledge that helped them earn the rank of Second-Class Time Travelers. It would have been nice to get to First Class immediately, but Cavendish took it as a new goal for which to strive.

Cavendish tucked his new badge into a flat wallet and stored that wallet in a pocket on the inside of his jacket. He and Dakota had a new mission. An early morning fog shrouded the streets. Technically, they didn’t have to report to Block for assignment until nine a.m. Cavendish had been awake since five a.m., not entirely on purpose. He needed this walk in the cool morning air, where he could clear his thoughts and prepare for another mission. He and Dakota only had a few exciting missions as rookie agents: saving books from the Library of Alexandria, arresting a time juice smuggler in the black market, and saving Julius Cesar from assassination (a different one than the assassination that was supposed to happen on the Ides of March). Every other mission was rather mundane: study pandemics, interview significant historical figures incognito, check up on so-and-so who is supposed to do something famous and make sure that person actually does it, etc. etc.

This time, Cavendish only knew they were recovering an important relic before it could be destroyed, and they would bring this relic back to the future for preservation in a museum. Cavendish liked these kinds of retrieval missions. It saddened him to think that beautiful pieces of history were destroyed before future generations could learn from them.

Cavendish stopped in a café that recently opened, ordered tea and a muffin to go, and continued his stroll to B.O.T.T. headquarters. He stopped at the park across the street, sat on a bench, and casually flipped through a new book he had started while having his breakfast. Some of his honey blonde bangs fluttered into his line of sight, and he blew a puff of air to get them out of the way. When he finished his tea and pastry, he returned his book to the satchel he carried and pulled out his pocket watch. The polished face told him it was another hour and a half until his meeting. Fondly, Cavendish ran his thumb over the engraving on the back of the watch.

My brother Future Hero Love, Lizzie

“Dear, sweet Elizabeth.” Cavendish sighed as he stowed the watch away.

“It’s Lizzie!” He could practically hear her complain. She always hated how formal her name sounded.

“Well, why don’t you call me by a nickname?” Cavendish breathed, his usual response to her remark.

“Well, I don’t know a good nickname for ‘Balthazar.’” Lizzie would retort.

Cavendish remembered her most recent letter so well, included in a care package sent by his family from England. She never did clarify if “Future Hero” meant “hero of the future” or “hero in the future.” Still, she was his biggest supporter to take that big leap, move to the States, and learn to be a time traveler. He vowed to carry that watch to every mission for good luck.

“Promise me you’ll make some friends over there, Balthazar.” Lizzie had said when she hugged him goodbye at the airport.

Make friends? Who would want to be friends with him? Besides, what did he need friends for when he had books and the wonders of being a time traveler? Even though he had to share those wonders with Vinnie Dakota. Cavendish did consider if he and Dakota would be partners permanently. Was it possible they could become friends if they spent enough time together?

Cavendish snorted to himself. “Hardly.”
