#I think my finals coming close is the reason my brain goes absolutely mad

Hey mate uh what are those qphilza head canons you got that are driving you mad?
Asking for science
for science... yesyes. although some of them may be general hcs and not that well written??? i'm used to them living in my head. and also i'm not particularly all that normal about this bird man. so anything can make me go insane. but anyway... welcome to my word vomit
1. so ive made it known that i like to make minecraft hcs often. like for the game mechanics. and so i describe The End as in like a vacuum. there's hardly any sound, except a sort of static sound, and the sounds of the natives of the End. there's no temperature but end stone had a cold touch to it. it's hard to breathe in the End, unless you're a native there, and also because the End is basically mostly Void. so this is important for the hc that i made
although phil, in canon, is a crow. there's small entertainment within the fandom that he's also an elytrian (which is a type of native to the end... i suppose) either way, he's avian. now avian hearing is less sensitive than humans. but given the fact that phil is a hybrid, he has a mix of both which sort of clash. so i'd say that phil's ears are as sensitive, if not more, than humans. (especially shown with how phil hears literally everything.)
then, before coming to quesadilla island, he came from his season 4 hardcore world. living for YEARS on end by himself. the only company he had were the crows, the livestock, the sounds of nature outside, etc. so he isnt USED to all the sounds and clamor and people talking over each other to get their cents in. so when coming to the island and meeting everyone, the sound is absolutely overwhelming. he gets overwhelmed which leads him to step away for a bit just to hear silence just for a little bit. regain his bearings before stepping back into the crowd.
people would notice, especially close friends, but not really think about it. when tallulah would finally come around and he would then take care of her, he would use her (for himself and for her) to get out of loud situations. because both of their ears are sensitive. so phil understands what she goes through. and such and such.
2. there's this one !!
i love this hc so much, like the whole "friendship emeralds" thing means so much to me.
anyway, phil is a natural hoarder. which includes all sentimental things and materialistic things he needs. plus with crow/bird brain mentality, he likes shiny things. so giving out these emeralds, although so sparingly, means a LOT to him. meaning you mean so much to him and he trusts you. and a lot in that matter.
also, other people he would give it to:
i put it in the tags BUT: etoiles. his friendship emerald would be in the pommel of his axe/scythe (whichever he uses more than the sword). phil would've asked to see it, to maybe borrow it to see what enchantments etoiles has on it. but then changes the pommel to add in the emerald and handing it back to him. like its nothing.
another i put in the tags: cellbit. the emerald phil gave to him was just a regular emerald. i say it was given one day where they were hanging beside forever's bed whilst he was in a coma. cellbit was filling phil in on whatever happened/will happen in the order bc now he is an important member. and phil was like "oh right, i have something for you." and passed over the emerald with a small smile. and cellbit keeps it in safe keeping somewhere, because then he knew it was a token of phils trust and he cherishes it.
all the other kids would have one too, in various different accessories. dapper would have a keychain on his backpack, ramon would have a bracelet of it, same with richas and leo, and pomme would have a necklace!!
3. perching
this post is kind of the reason this is on the list. its not necessarily MY hc but.... i like thinking of this nonetheless.
but also just thinking abt how phil will perch around peoples places and they would take notice to it, and maybe even build something and not say anything. i once saw an art on here where there was phil and cellbit in the order's like... meeting room with all of the sofa's and everything. but instead of phil being on a sofa on cellbit's side, it was a perch instead. and i CANT stop thinking abt it. its so good.
bird man perching. not really a hc, i admit, but i shall make up for it
4. singing
DONT LISTEN TO THE STREAMER!!! i believe that qphil can SING!!!!!! but ofc, out and in character, phil is a self-deprecating man. so he would say "i'm shit at singing" but when he tries it and sings his kids songs, it doesnt sound half bad.
when building, farming, mining, or anything really, you can hear him hum. not any particular tune most times, but it sounds nice and calming nonetheless. and it fits him just right
although when singing jort storm he's being bad on purpose 🙏🏽
but just THINK about the coziness you'd feel in the bunker. the soft natural light of the shroom lights, the natural feeling from the moss and flowers in the room, the soft humming and singing from phil as he tucks his kids into bed. brushing some hair from their faces with a soft smile and helping them put away their things before he sits on the chair and waits until they fall asleep for him to leave. its so cozy and so nice to think abt that i cant even
5. touch/physical affection
now, this hc is one i made in the dsmp era. where phil didnt like to be hugged because all it made him think about what him killing his son. hugging wilbur as life slowly left him. it leaves a man scarred, yknow?? and he'd only ever accept hugs, scarcely, from techno. (bc techno isnt a touchy guy either.) but dsmp isnt canon in qsmp. not that i know of, and frankly, i dont want it to be because its weird to think about.
but even so, i think this hc would even transfer over to qsmp phil. and it definitely has to do something with his wings. the sensitivity of the area and how big they are when they're closed and tucked into his back. the habit he has, with close ones, to wrap his wings around them in an even warmer, bigger, hug. but with his wings so fucked up and the fact that he has to wear a backpack to counteract the lost weight.... i..........
either way, phil would then only accept scarce hugs from close friends. and when he doesnt give hugs, his friends do this: fit would always give a hard and good pat on the shoulder, a side hug perhaps, a good strong handshake. wilbur always gives phil a small lighthearted punch on the arm. missa rests his hand on phils shoulder and gives it a squeeze. forever, a naturally touchy man, would just simply lean into phil's side, give a handshake, or a simple smile. etc etc
but an exception to this were his children. (excluding will and tubbo from this, even though it is slightly canon that they are his sons,... in a way) chayanne and tallulah always get hugs from phil. waking up from a nightmare and phil has them wrapped in his arms, shielding them away from harm. happiness to see him after he comes back from a trip of wandering, his arms are wide open. anything for his kids.
6. wings :3
on my other acc (zmbiicrsh) i sometimes, very rarely, post snippets of writing that i do. and in one of them i explain phils wings briefly.
i think, personally, phil's wings are big. since he is a crow hybrid, he's a human... with crow wings scaled to his size. which are BIG. (and then also the feathers coalescing around his ears/cheek and forearm areas. blah blah blah) they're supposed to be big because of his size and nature. but i also think about the color a lot. from first glance, they're a jet black. black, silky, feathers. with patterns of white stars at the bottom (when they were full.......). but if you look closely in the sunlight. if he angled them just right, you'd be able to see the multicolored shine to it. a rainbow shine that glided along the edge of the feathers.
i think a lot abt his wings......
here are some of them!! ,,,, these arent much. but i cant seem to gather all of my scattered thoughts together to give more hcs i have. but i then compensated for just infodumping and giving context. i hope u enjoyed(?) :D

Be My Favorite, Lets Reflect
Okaaaay I’ve decided this is happening today after all because who knows what the combined power of Only Friends and Laws of Attraction is about to do to my brain.
Full Disclosure: I’m an optimist and I’m easy to please. If I finish a show, that typically means I liked it. This final episode could have been an actual disaster and I probably would have given this show 8/10 and watched it again in the future.
Tagging the people who have been watching along with me, in case you wish to read my final thoughts, getting to be a part of this experience with you has been an absolute delight no matter how late you joined! @shouldiusemyname @thegalwhorants @plantsarepeopletoo @lurkingshan @pandasmagorica @twig-tea @waitmyturtles @benkaaoi @telomeke @dribs-and-drabbles @stuffnonsenseandotherthings @clairificusrex @williamrikers @grapejuicegay @dropthedemiurge @bengiyo
With all that said here goes
Themes that felt unfinished
The whole thing with any and all parents, but especially Piseangs felt somewhat unresolved/glossed over.
I have no idea what the point of the Kwan/Not storyline was??
Themes that felt reasonably resolved but could have been pushed more
Looking back I kind of like that the fighting for rights storyline was most strongly played out through Max. This was consistent all the way through and while I do definitely think this show could have chosen a different direction and taken a stronger stance, I’m not mad about this.
I genuinely think that the fact Kawi tried and then DIDN’T LIKE the rollercoaster after episode 10’s EXTREMELY ON THE NOSE POINTING (apparently this one still invokes strong emotions huh) kind of make’s ace!kawi pretty close to canon, they clearly still have sex which is totally fine in my books but like, my dude is ace.
Where have I landed overall?
Using my unnecessarily lengthy 5 category system of rating and review this show ended up at 92% 21st out of 82 BLs 12th out of Thai BLs, Greater Recommendation  
I want to be clear here, 92% is HIGH and I loved this show A LOT, the ending very much included. Also I normally wait longer to give something a rating so this could waver but likely only by a couple of percent either way
What Was My Takeaway? -It’s about Control
Okay so this is definitely influenced at least in part by my readings of @lurkingshan (here) and @waitmyturtles (here) posts and I loved how the framing of the serenity prayer in Shan’s takeaway (original post by @shortpplfedup here) lined up perfectly with my thoughts so I will put that in here
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,  The courage to change the things I cannot accept,  And the wisdom to know the difference
So much of this show was about Kawi learning that control and change isn’t resolved through force but instead through trust and patience. In the first half of the show, Kawi tries again and again to alter things into perfection, and he fails each time. He learns that only his own actions can be controlled, not even his own feelings are entirely within his grasp. He learns to hold on to the things that matter and let go of what can not be.
He father dies but he gets a chance to see him again, and to convey his feelings sincerely building up the relationship before the end.
He learned that even with a second chance, some things can’t be changed, and no matter how hard he tried his dad still died.
He gains a beautiful found family, so different from the family he was trying to build with Pear before he understood himself.
Tumblr media
I feel like episodes 10 & 12 dragged my right down into my feels about the things control can change. Because to me, everything that happened in the theme park in episode 12, juxtaposed in my head against everything that happened in the theme park in episode 10 highlighted how much change control can wrought.
In episode 12 we have the shifted perspective, Piseang has come back, Piseang is panicked and fearful and Kawi clocks this immediately, and what does he do, he stays completely calm, in this same time, but in the original timeline (ep10), Kawi is lacking all control. Max has pointed out to him that Piseang probably want’s sex and Kawi is NOT SURE how he feels about that. He tries to regain some equilibrium by taking them out but refusing to ride and ends up more and more prickly and uncertain at Piseangs every nudge.
Opposite this we have our episode 12 timeline where our focus is all different, Kawi is pulling Piseang along with him and encouraging him to accept the future even as they enjoy a lost moment of the past. A moment now filled with much greater joy for both of them because with the pressure gone, Kawi is ready to face anything if it makes Piseang happy.
I have seen some interesting thoughts about Kawi being affected by the knowledge of his possible death, and maybe this is it, but to me this change felt different. For some people it’s easier to be strong when someone else is being weak, because we can’t always be strong for ourselves, sometimes we have to be strong for others. Kawi’s focus in this second timeline was outward rather than inward and it fundamentally changed the experience for both of them.
Piseang hadn’t really been weak much in their relationship, even in the most developed future where they aren’t together, he is there, steady and waiting for Kawi to need him.
In this episode Kawi had to be steady and this put them on more equal footing than ever before because Kawi has grown so much. We have seen his change, his arc was immense and, to me at least, immensely satisfying. Getting to see this Kawi in episode 12, the one who is calm and sure in the face of his partners uncertainty highlighted how these two will work and grow together in the future we had already seen.
It made me like episode 10 more
(I have specific thoughts about consciousness and whether or not the latter scenes in ep10 occur with Kawi’s knowledge of future!Piseang laid out at the bottom of this very interesting thread. In short(ish), my takeaway is that the memories of Kawi’s second day at the amusement day are dormant but present in Kawi’s mind, influencing his actions. To me when he reaches out to Piseang at the restaurant towards the end of episode 10, after Piseang has travelled back to the future
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is an extension of the reaching out we see Kawi doing throughout episode 12
Tumblr media
This gif was posted by @wanderlust-in-my-soul as a part of this post which is all the times Kawi and Piseang hold hands in ep 12 (often with Kawi reaching out). Even if Kawi doesn’t consciously know it, he is influenced by the events of episode 12 in the latter parts of epiosde 10, this also makes me feel better about the episode 10/11 sex scene for the record)
It made me like episode 11 more (and I already liked this one!)
It made me glad to have been so wrong about where I thought episode 11 and 12 would go.
Because the finale drew us back in to the core of the show. It let go of the things that could not be finished and brought together the things that could. Making us the audience sit with the very themes Kawi had learned.
@dropthedemiurge actually put it so beautifully that I’ve just stolen (and slightly paraphrased) their words straight out of this post
“the final episode was not here to yell, but instead to speak softly and soothe your worries until you find the courage to live and stay smiling, content with discovering the right way to live”
I was left warm and fuzzy, content and satisfied, I could never be mad at a show for that.

Hello I hope you are doing well. Forgive me if this ask is inappropriate. I am not a writer and I can't beging to comprehend the amount of effort that goes into creating piece of work. This is about #dyldyl. I understand you have written some of chapter 8. Would you consider publishing it even if "unfinished"? Again please do forgive this request if offensive and/or out of place. I absolutely love your writing and that story
Hi!! So not offensive not at all!! I know it’s been almost four years (oof) and I’ve been promising an update for a while but I’m still working away at it.
Dyldyl is a labor of love and while it doesn’t have to be perfect I wouldn’t be able to just post it unfinished. Part of the reason as to why the chapters are so long is bc there’s things that need to be added for each of them to work. The honeymoon HAS to end at a specific point for chapter nine to even start working.
Maybe it’s crazy or maybe I’m just weird like that but the honeymoon has a specific ending that I need to get to bc chapter nine has to begin at a certain point. Otherwise the story won’t flow and it wouldn’t make sense. I joke that each of the chapters are acts in a play, but it’s lowkey true. Chapters 1-3 (Roger’s POV and the aftermath of the accident) all fit together bc that’s their leg of the story. Chapters 4-7 (John’s POV) fit together as they are their own leg of the story. Chapters 8-10 are likewise their own section and their own act that will cover and wrap up the story.
For chapter 5, I think that was the one I cut simply because it was going to be waaaaay over the word count and also bc it just needed to come to an end. I think lo and I debated for daaaays about where to cut it, what needed to be in the first half and what in the second, how to keep it going, etc. I also got about 1/3 written (~10k) before realizing I was taking it in a direction that it couldn’t continue down so I had to completely start over. It ended up clocking in at 52k (give or take) which is lowkey mad.
All this is a long winded way of saying that I couldn’t just post where I’m at now because it would genuinely ruin the story. It’s not finished, but it is close. I think there are maybe 5-10k left, if I follow the story as it’s telling me. That would put us at about 45k for the chapter. 50k+ is considered a novel. In total, I estimate dyldyl when completed will be about 400,000 words (that’s if the final two chapters are both 45k. Most likely they’ll be shorter but I also said dyldyl was a four chapter max story) . For reference, Gone With The Wind, considered to be a beheamouth of a novel and so long that the film had to have an intermission, was 418,053 words. (At its current stand point, dyldyl is 267,931 words long, which make its longer than the order of the phoenix and crime and punishment.)
Basically, I know it’s been a long time coming. I know that I’ve been promising a new chapter since 2021. But at the same time…it’s a lot. It’s a lot of work and a lot of brain capacity and time and dedication. But I’m still working on it!! But it’s hard. And when you consider I’ve literally written more than a Harry Potter novel and STILL have more to go?? Well I hope it make sense as to why it’s taken me so long.
I hope this didn’t come off bitchy or snarky, that’s so not my intent! I hope instead this sheds a little more light on a) why I can’t/won’t post it unfinished and b) why it’s taken so long!
Thanks for reading 💛

For requests. Intoxicated Natasha with insecure fem!reader watching ppl flirt with Natasha but Natasha doesn’t care and she just goes up to reader and kisses her like, “When are we going home?” . If u do this thank you
The Most Beautiful Person
Tumblr media
Requested Intoxicated!Natasha x Insecure!Fem!Reader
Words:1120
Genre: Angst, Fluff
Warning: putting yourself down, flashbacks, cruel mother
Summary: look at the request box above.
Here we are yet again. Tony Stark is throwing another party. Why? Wanda got mad at him and didn’t throw him across the room. According to Stark, that’s more than enough reason. Wanda, who absolutely hates parties, is now in a corner with champagne, wishing she did throw him across the room. The only reason she’s here is that it was a majority vote that since she’s the reason Stark is throwing another party, she has to be here to watch him. So now she’s seething and watching Starks drunk ass from across the room. She moves, only when Tony is about to do something idiotic. Usually, Pepper would be watching him, but she’s out on a business trip. Other than that, the other Avengers are having a great time. Well, most of them.
Y/N and Natasha are at the bar, and Natasha is wasted. Y/N, on the other hand, is watching her, making sure nothing wrong will happen to her. You’d think being an assassin, even wasted Natasha, would still be composed entirely. But, for the most part, that’s completely false.
Right now, Natasha is talking to a man that’s obviously flirting with her. But, in Natasha’s drunken state, she can’t tell. Y/N is a very insecure woman who always has been after her mother would put her down about every little thing she did.
Natasha being drunk, Y/N thinks Natasha might just forget about her and leave the party with him. On the other hand, Natasha finds the interaction with the man to be comedic.
----------------
“You know if we left right now, I could give you the time of your life.” Natasha finds it funny and starts laughing at the guy. Y/N is just closing herself off every second they interact. This was the final straw for Y/N. “I’m going to the bathroom.” The man just smirks and continues to try to get Natasha to leave with him.
When Y/N gets to the sink, she looks in the mirror but can’t see anything with all the tears in her eyes. So she splashes her face with water to clear her sight, but then all the makeup she was wearing smudged. So she started to break down completely. All the times her mother brought her down, just flooding her brain.
‘You will never be good enough.’ ‘You think people would actually want to be around you? Look at yourself. You’re hideous.’
All her thoughts were so loud despite all the noise the party was causing, and being pretty far from the bathroom, Wanda could hear your thoughts. As soon as she makes out where it’s coming from, she’s there in a second. When Wanda enters the bathroom, she finds you on the floor with your legs pressed up to your chest. Your forehead is resting on your knees. As soon as Wanda takes in the scene, she closes and locks the door behind her. Then, she neals right in front of you and puts both her hands on your forearm. “Hey, listen to my voice, not what's going on in your head.” You look back up at her. Wanda takes in your state and gives you a sympathetic smile. “But what if she was right.” You let out a dry laugh, and Wanda grimaces. “Natasha could have anyone in the world, and you expect me to believe she didn’t just choose me to have some fun.”
“Look at me. Natasha loves you so much, I would know. I’ve had to see and hear her constantly think about you. Honestly, it gets so annoying how loud her thoughts are when it comes to you.” Wanda and Y/N both let out a laugh. “I’m not joking. If I had got a penny every time I walked into a room with Natasha and she was thinking about you, I could buy Stark Industries.” Wanda chuckles and gives you a light smile. “Now come on, let's get you back in tip-top shape.”
When you stand back up and look at your face, you laugh. “Oh god, I look terrible.” Your mascara had smudged all over your eyes, as well as eye shadow and eyeliner from when your face was tucked into your legs. Your foundation was coming off, and you lips looked like you had the world's messiest make-out session. “Well, don’t you worry about that.” With the flick of her wrist, all her makeup materialized on the counter.
When Wanda finished your makeup, she said. “Look at that.” She had you look at yourself in the mirror. “Perfect like always.” She looked at the door like she was listening and smiled. “Well, I think it’s time for you to go back out there.” She pointed you in Natasha’s direction when you went back outside, and you made your way over.
When you saw Natasha was with the same guy looking around for something. Natasha saw you, and you just vaguely heard the guy say something you don’t know what. But, when Natasha got to you, she grabbed you by the waist and kissed you. She nibbled on your bottom lip, causing you to let out a moan only Natasha could hear. Then she slipped her tongue into your mouth. Only when you were both running out of air did you both stop. “When are we going home?” Still a little dazed from the kiss, you looked behind Natasha at the man. He looked pissed and as if he wanted to hurt someone, me more specifically, but he didn’t. He just turned around and left. “Um, whenever you want is fine with me.”
She smiled and took you by your arm, and started dragging you to the exit. “Good, I want cuddle time, and the sooner we get home, the sooner we can do that.” When the both of you got outside, Natasha tried to take the keys from the valet, but you took them before she could. On our way home, Natasha was staring at you with the most dreamy eyes. When you saw this, you had an amused smile on your face. “What are you looking at, love?” “You. Your really pretty.” You let out a light laugh. “I’m not, but thank you.” Natasha's smile turned into a pout. “Don’t do that. I don’t like it. You’re the most beautiful person, and I don’t want you ever to doubt that. So promise me you won’t do that” You started blushing a little. “Okay, I promise.”
When you got home, you both took a shower which you had to help Natasha with. After you went to bed, Natasha had you be the little spoon. Natasha was asleep within seconds. You fell asleep soon after.

An Impostor In Love
Sequel to ‘Love For The Faceless’ (’Body Reveal’)
Corpse Husband x Reader (Female)
Warnings: Swearing (maybe)
Genre: Fluff
Summary: Rae can’t stay mad at her best friends forever. Them being absolutely adorable doesn’t help her ‘pissed off’ act either. Y/N’s outing Corpse like she’s a human lie detector. Corpse is gushing about her every second word that comes out of his mouth. And the rest of the lobby are getting one hell of a kick out of the Among Us romantic comedy - An Impostor In Love
Requested but, once again, not in a typical way. I honestly wasn’t expecting all the positive feedback I got for Love For The Faceless (Body Reveal). I was star-struck! You guys are so amazing I have no words to describe just how much I love you all! Thank you for everything! This story is for all of you 🥰🥰🥰
“Mr. and Mrs. ‘Totally not dating’ have entered the call!“ Sean announces when I hop into the Discord call to play Among Us with the usual gang. I hear Corpse’s laugh from down the hall, bringing a smile to my face.
We’ve gotten used to playing in this arrangement, a few rooms away from each other, ever since we moved in together - Corpse is in his recording room and I am in our shared bedroom. When one dies, they go in the other’s room to troll them. I’m usually the one dead, but that’s besides the point.
“Hi everyone!“ I say in my typical cheery tone before kicking it done a few notches, making it an octave deeper just to say: “Hi Rae.”
The whole lobby laughs, they all know what I’m trying to do here. Everyone’s aware this is the first time Rae is in the same call and lobby as Corpse and I after you-know-which incident. Sure, I’ve been poking sticks at her, waving a white flag and admitting I was wrong several times by now. Who knew my sweetheart best friend could act so cold? I know it’s a front. I know she’s fighting to stay mad. There’s a ton of pressure on her to finally forgive us, but she’s been holding up better than I would be if I were in her situation.
I honestly felt, and still feel, slightly guilty. I know best friends are supposed to tell each other everything. They are supposed to be the first ones to know whatever’s going on in each other’s lives. And I know I broke one of the main rules of friendships, but the decision wasn’t only mine to make. I’m sure she understands where I’m coming from, she’s just giving me and Corpse a hard time.
“Hello, Y/N.” She replies, her tone strictly formal.
“Progress, people! Progress!“ I say joyously, the smile turning into a grin 
“Don’t worry, babe. We’ll get her eventually.“ Corpse reassures me as he’s done for the past week or two. He knew I wasn’t as unbothered by Rae’s anger towards me as I tried to appear - a pro and simultaneously a con of living with someone: they pick up on everything about you. You become as familiar to them as the back of their hand.
“I know, I know.“ I giggle, “She’ll cave.“
“Yeah, good luck with that.“ Rae has dropped the formal tone, now sounding like a stubborn child which is something I’m way more familiar with. I’ve dealt with her tantrums and childish outbursts - I don’t know which number it is, but it’s somewhere in the rule book of friendships - and I at least the approximate meaning behind it. 
Ken puts an end to our friendly, stick-poking, sorta one-sided banter, ushering us to start the game. We all oblige, muting our mics and getting our heads in the game as though we’re about to enter an actual warzone with upmost stealth.
To my dismay, the screen flashes ‘Crewmate’. I head out of cafeteria to do my task in Weapons, staying weary of anyone within my proximity. Once I’m done, I head on down to Shields and complete my task there as well. I cringe when I’m done, knowing my last three tasks are in Electrical. Like, the fuck kind of luck do I have?
I make my way through the halls, running into Sykkuno and we circle around each other a few times to show we’re safe before we each continue our own way. I enter Electrical and.....oh Felix is dead. And oh lookie who’s right there...
I report the body before the impostor can and we all unmute our mics.
“Found him in Electrical.“ I say nonchalantly, “Didn’t see anyone in there though.“ 
“Anyone sus?“ Sean asks
We say our ‘no’s and ‘I don’t know’s and skip the vote. I’m smirking to myself as I head back down to Electrical. Walking in, I see the same person as before - Rae. I stop dead in my tracks and we just stare at each other for a few seconds before she comes towards me, circling me twice, bumping visors with me and venting out of the room.
“You’re welcome.“ I mumble, smiling widely.
I finish my tasks and leave Electrical just as Corpse enters our bedroom, giving me this tired-parent look like he’s half disappointed and half amused. “You just threw the game, didn’t you? Don’t lie.” He raises his eyebrows, fully adopting his parent role.
I giggle, shaking my head, sending him the briefest of glances before my eyes fixate on the screen in utter shock - Sean just killed me. Oh, for fuck’s sake...
“I was gonna come clean eventually, but I guess they won’t hear it from me now.“ I shrug, lifting my laptop and setting it aside so Corpse can join me on the bed. I snuggle up to him immediately, drawn to him as though he’s a human magnet.
“Who was it?“ He asks me, running his hands through my hair in a soothing manner.
I frown, pulling away from his chest to look him in the eyes, “Wait, how did you know I threw the game if you don’t know who I threw it for?”
He smirks, shrugging, “I didn’t know. You were smiling downright evilly when I came in so I just assumed.” He boops my nose. “And you ratted yourself out.”
I narrow my eyes at him, blowing some air out my nose - a gesture that has become my only way of showing anger towards him. I literally can’t even voice when I’m upset with him cause the grudge lasts like .5 seconds. I let him get away with more than he should.
Seeing as how I can’t argue to his statement, I lean back into his chest and pull out my phone to pass the time while I pretend to give him the silent treatment. Among my notifications is one for Rae’s stream. I smile and tap it, being taken to her YouTube channel and her live stream.
Just when the stream loads, Rae finds my dead body in Storage.
“Oh, nooooooo! Y/N!“ She wines as she goes over to it, “Sean must’ve killed her.” She reports the body and unmutes herself in game, “The body’s in Storage. I was on my way to call an emergency meeting cause I saw Sean vent in Security.”
“WHAT?!“ Sean exclaims in shock, “I didn’t! Rae’s lying. I swear I didn’t! I wasn’t even in Security!“
“Sean has been following me around this whole time. Just saying.“ Ken joins the discussion, throwing even more suspicion on Sean.
“We gotta vote someone.“ Charlie says, “Might as well be the most sus person at the moment.“
The voting results show all the little astronaut icons on Sean except his which is on Rae. Sean gets launched into space and the game continues. Having muted her mic in-game, Rae speaks up: “Y/N has been avenged. No one kills my best friend.”
I’m staring at my phone screen, eyes wide, eyebrows raised, a huge smile on my face. I take a glance at Corpse out of the corner of my eye and see he’s just as pleasantly surprised as I am.
“For those of you asking if I’m still mad at her and Corpse, the answer’s no. Actually, I think I was never mad. I was just in shock and a little hurt that I wasn’t made aware sooner.“ Rae says as she keeps wandering around the map, “Then I realized not talking to my best friend hurt more than the betrayal, you know. The only reason I still pretend is because it’s really funny to see her trying to soften me up.“ She laughs, “But yeah. I don’t know what I’d do without her or Corpse in my life. I love them both and love them even more together. My best friends are dating, I still can’t wrap my brain around that! They are sooo cute, you guys! I wish they posted more content of them together. I’m literally simping over their relationship! But shh, don’t tell em I said that.”
I laugh, overjoyed by what I just heard. I knew she couldn’t still be mad at us. I know she has every right to be, but she’s too sweet to actually hold a grudge against anyone ever.
I suddenly want nothing more than to give her an enormous hug and hold onto her for as long as she’d let me. I just now realize how lonely it feels to have never hugged your best friend because you haven’t hung out together in person. The only reason Rae now knows what I look like is because I sent her a full body picture of myself as one of my sad attempts to get her to start talking to us again. We have never met in person, and that thought kills me. It makes me impatient for this pandemic to end even more than before. 
“Told you there was nothing to worry about.“ Corpse’s arms tighten their hold on my body, pulling me even closer which I didn’t know was possible. The most fulfilling and endearing feeling - being in the arms of a loved one. Being held so close and so tightly that you feel like you’re untouchable. Like you two can’t be hurt by anything in the world as long as you have each other.
“Yeah, you were right.“ I sigh in content, putting my phone down and covering his hands with mine, our rings clinking quietly when they touch.
“As usual...“ he whispers theatrically with his lips against my hair.
I playfully roll my eyes, catching glimpse of the screen showing Rae’s demise. 
“Oh no, they caught her.“ I say, a bit disappointed she didn’t win and more than a bit responsible for her defeat.
I somehow manage to convince myself to get untangled from Corpse’s embrace and join the new round. I hear him groan as I settle my computer in my lap, unmuting my mic.
“See ya, kitten.“ Corpse kisses my temple, standing up.
“Oh my God, you two are too cute.“ Poki says sweetly, having heard what Corpse said to me.
“SIMP!“ Sean and Felix shout in unison causing the whole lobby to laugh. Corpse is as red as Rae’s avatar as he exists our room, running down the hallway.
“Ok, ok, ok. Hold on. I have to address this. I really hadn’t stepped foot in Security, let alone vented in there. Rae why were you lying?“ Sean’s voice cuts through the teasing directed towards Corpse and I.
“While we’re on that topic...“ Felix speaks up as well, making me break out in a nervous sweat, “Y/N, you literally saw Rae kill me, but you said you didn’t see anyone.“ He laughs, “Not gonna lie, I was a bit pissed.“
The call falls silent for about five seconds until Rae and I speak simultaneously.
“I was avenging Y/N.“
“I was helping Rae.“
Silence follows our statements, not for long though, as our friends break out in amused laughter.
“Fuck’s sake, you two make a good team.“ Sean says through genuine laughter which Rae and I soon join him in.
Felix and Sean and the rest of the lobby forgive us for throwing the game from both the crewmate and impostor’s side and we move onto another round. This time I have only one task in Electrical which I leave for last as always. I don’t feel like dying right from the get-go. I start by doing the card swipe in Admin and then the fuel task in Storage. As I make my way to Upper Engine, Corpse leaves Electrical, falling in step with me. I immediately get nervous, but still make my way to where I’m supposed to go, hoping he’d go his own way eventually. 
I stay wary of my boyfriend as I do my task, praying he won’t take my head off. When the task is finished, I find I’m trapped in the room with the doors shut. And Corpse right there. With every right and opportunity to kill me and vent. No one would know. No one saw us. 
That nervous sweat is back. 
I’m counting my last seconds of being alive.
And it happens...
A body is reported
“Oh than you so so so much! Corpse was gonna kill me in Upper Engine!“ I don’t let the person who reported the body speak, thanking them for my survival. “I was sure I was a goner.“
“Babe, come on now. You know I wouldn’t kill you even if I was an impostor. I love you too much.“ Corpse hurries to defend himself, “I’m following you around to keep you safe.“
I can tell he’s capping, but I have no concrete proof. He knows I’m onto him. His best bet is having me killed by the other impostor. He might have been capping the majority of his defense, but I know he won’t kill me.
“I’ll vote for myself because of that one.“ I mumble
The vote is skipped except the one vote I placed on myself and the round continues. I follow Corpse around the whole time, making sure he’s completing tasks - not that I can be 100% certain he’s actually completing them.
All is well until we walk into Admin and find Felix there, uploading data. Corpse, dead-ass, goes up to him and kills him, reporting the body right afterwards.
“IT’S CORPSE!“ I don’t give him a chance to start his brainwashing of the rest of the players. “Felix, this is my redemption for leaving your death unavenged last round.“
“Yeah, it’s me.“ Corpse laughs, that adorable laugh of his melting me despite the need to stay strong and carry out my argument, “Just vote me out so I can go troll Y/N.“
“Sounds like a plan to me.“ Ken says, the remainder of the crewmates, and the impostor probably, agreeing with him.
The votes are put in, all on Corpse obviously, and he is sent off into space. Not even five seconds later I hear his footsteps approaching. 
I look up when he pops his head in the room and says, “I have come to annoy you to death with my love for you.”
I can’t help but laugh, shaking my head. The things this man does to me are insane. It’s insane that I let him. 
It’s amazing, really. We’re amazing.
And I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I pat the spot on the bed next to me, “I’ll allow it. But only cause I love you too.”

Hi it’s me, crawling through the window. Would it be possible to get a crumb of arranged marriage w/ Hubert? His line w/ Dorothea about being willing to get married for politics sake has fueled my brain rot for him.
Good God I need to secure my windows-
I mean HELLO FRIEND ANON YES IT WOULD BE MY PLEASURE
Lol actually though, I have been thinking about this for Hubie since we all started chatting about that arranged marriage stuff! I think it's a perfect concept for him~
This like... got weird while I was writing it though?? Idk man hahaha it ended up on the less-spicy side of what I usually write, and with some very weird dialogue in places... Idk, I hope y'all like it. Maybe if there's interest, I'll follow this up eventually with a more smut-focused piece?
I've been traveling and working so much lately that I just don't even know what writing is anymore or how it works hahaha
TW: A brief mention of non-con
Hubert (FE3H) x Reader ("wife," neutral pronouns)
Arranged Marriage - semi spicy i guess?
"Frankly, he's a pain," Linhardt must be able to see your surprise and confusion written across your face. He goes on, "He's reliable and capable, of course, but also the most persistent nag you'll ever meet. Actually, no-" he glances upward as though to cross reference his own thoughts, "No, her Majesty is worse. But Hubert is a close second to be sure. Always on and on about sleep schedules and proper nutrition and etiquette..." He sighs and closes the massive tome on his lap, as though to close the conversation with it, "frankly, he's an insufferable mother hen. Does that help?"
"Well, it's... Not what I expected," you admit with a shrug, "but thank you all the same."
~
It's been several weeks since the papers binding you in marriage to Hubert Von Vestra had been signed- and this alone had sufficed. No ceremony, no grand ball, just paperwork and a handshake with your father. A handshake that ensured that, even under the Empire's unification, he would maintain nominal control over his considerable portion of land, and in return, would swear absolute loyalty to her Majesty. It was a beneficial arrangement for all parties, and you were not ignorant to the part you played. You were hardly even a bargaining chip- moreso, a hostage.
Your new husband had made no secret of what manner of harm may befall you if your family were to renege on their deal. Fortunately, you know your father to be a reliable coward, so you have no reason to believe he would be bold enough to step out of line.
Hubert Von Vestra is a terrifying man. A zealously loyal man of storied cruelty and a frigid disposition. His frame looms over you whenever he's near, and though he's hardly placed a finger on you since you'd been given over to him, his mere presence is... arresting. There's a sort of charisma to him that's equal parts frightening and fascinating. Perhaps it's madness brought on by your circumstances, but you can't help wanting to glimpse just the slightest bit into that brilliant, ever churning mind.
Unsurprisingly, he has been resistant to your attempts to understand him. He hardly indulges you in small talk, and if you were the paranoid sort, you'd think he intentionally makes himself busy when you're around. Eventually, perhaps out of sheer stubbornness, you'd settled on a routine of bringing coffee to his study adjoined to your bedroom in the evenings. He'd been visibly surprised the first time. It wasn't until the fourth night that he'd given a curt "thank you." About two weeks in, he'd actually sat back in his chair and laid down his quill pen to receive the cup from your hands. After a month, he'd leveled his narrow gaze at you and said,
"I cannot begin to fathom what satisfaction you glean from playing 'maid' to me."
"Well, I, uhm," you hadn't expected him to address you so directly, but you managed to say, "You... work so hard, I wanted to do something for you, I suppose."
His expression is inscrutable as he replies,
"You are aware that my work was much the same before you arrived."
"I am," you say softly, "But- all the same..." you trail off, and Hubert seems content to let the matter rest. And so you leave him be amidst his reports and correspondence, coffee at his side on the desk. Yet for as unproductive as your exchange might have seemed, it does leave you with an idea. The thought to learn about the man from those who knew him long before your arrival at the capitol.
~
Your investigation into the true character of your husband does not stop with Linhardt. In fact, his testimony only leaves you with further questions. But perhaps the others would say otherwise; perhaps the United Empire's most up and coming crest scholar simply inspires maternal behavior. This has to be the case- you simply can't imagine that the notoriously ruthless heir of the even more notorious Vestra lineage would be so... Doting.
And yet the more you learn of him, the more contradictory he seems.
Caspar's take is much like Linhardt's- a picture of a man far closer to a school marm than any assassin or master of torture. Ferdinand seems both smitten and incensed by him, oscillating wildly between the two. Then eventually, to your shock, Bernadetta takes the initiative to speak to you about Hubert of her own accord.
"I'm, uh, really so-sorry to bother you!" she approaches with arms drawn close to her chest and eyes resolutely avoiding yours, "I- I just heard that you were... asking about Hubert, so, I, uh..."
It takes some time to prompt her further. You assure her again and again- no, this isn't intrusive at all- yes, you'd very much like to hear her perspective- no, you're not mad at her. In truth, you're endlessly intrigued about what a gentle soul like Bernadetta would have to say about a man feared across the continent. Finally, she manages,
"He's... actually really kind!" she blurts out, as though the words would abandon her if she gave them the window of opportunity. Your eyebrows raise slightly.
"You think so..?"
"Yes, completely-!" she stammers, "I know he's super, super scary, and powerful and spooky and cold and, uh, all of that. But still," her voice falters as she continues, "He only scolds people when they do something dangerous. And he only hurts people to protect others. I... I know he's done some te-terrible things. But... he's always been nice to Bernie," finally, she meets your eyes with an imploring look in hers, "So, uh, I'm really grateful to him. And I think it would be really nice for someone to reach out to him. If... if that's not too weird or anything. For you."
You smile warmly and nod,
"Thank you, Bernadetta. I know it can't be easy for you to come to me with all of this, but... I'd like to try, if I can."
The opportunity doesn't come in the way you expect.
At first, it seems the night will proceed like many others before. You bring a cup of coffee to your husband's desk, setting it down quietly so as to not disturb him. He's silent, but this is common enough, so you head back to the bedroom to undress for the evening. All nights prior, he would lay beside you long after you'd settled in, then rise to resume work in the morning before you woke up- all the while never allowing your bodies to interact in any way.
Tonight, just as you're about to close the door to Hubert's study behind you, long fingers catch around your wrist, visibly startling you.
It's the most physical contact you've had to-date, but he only says,
"One moment."
You whip around to face him, a touch of anxiety evident in your eyes. It's clear in his own that he notices, but if anything, he only seems amused. He steps forward, his taller frame menacing you as he speaks,
"I understand that you have been busying yourself with some manner of investigation as of late."
It takes a moment for his meaning to reach you. When it does, your face burns and you can't bring yourself to meet his scrutinizing gaze,
"Oh, uhm..."
"I assure you, my dearest wife," he says with barely concealed venom, "anything that I do not wish for you to know will be kept from you. Aside from which, your efforts thus far have proven amateurish at best."
Something seems off about his tone. You could understand if he felt uncomfortable or hesitant about your efforts to learn about him, but this seems far more grave, more... business-like. He steps towards you once more, and you step back in turn. Yet before long, you feel your legs bump the edge of the bed. A gloved hand trails a fingertip down your jawline to your chin, then urges you to look up at him.
"Whatever you are planning, my dear, I promise it will be fruitless. You had best rethink how you spend your days before your actions bring you to harm."
"No, I-" your brow creases deeply, your face burns, your body burns hotter and you don't want to consider why, "I've just been trying to learn about you as a person, nothing else. We're- we're married, after all, so..."
He gives an abrupt, dry laugh.
"Ah, so I am to believe that you've been interrogating my allies out of some misguided affection, is that it?"
"Hubert, just listen to me!" for a moment, you feel bolstered, defiant, and you straighten your posture, "You won't tell me the first thing about you- the only way to learn so much as your favorite color is to ask someone who's known you for a decade!"
Briefly, he does seem to consider your words. But his eventual reply is as aloof as any prior,
"If you're no spy or politician, then you're worse- a fool." he says, and before you can respond, he's seized both of your wrists and pushed you back onto the bed. For a moment, the room spins and your voice leaves you. A shrewd eye watches you with cruel condescension as he pins you against the sheets.
"I should think that you'd be well aware what I'm capable of," he nearly whispers, "I personally ensured that the rumors spread through your father's territory and further still. Do you think that anyone would even dare lift a finger to help you if I chose to seek retribution for this recent behavior?" He draws nearer, his grip tighter at your wrists, "Perhaps as punishment, I'll simply take my pleasure from you by force."
Your lips tighten, you take a breath. Then, meeting his gaze directly, you reply,
"You won't."
His visible eye narrows.
"And what evidence do you have to prompt such unfounded confidence? Perhaps you have crafted a flattering falsehood of me in your mind," a mocking smirk curls his lips, "Am I a misunderstood sentimental sort to you, then? A sad, lonely man for you to save?"
You scowl, though you suspect it looks more like a pout to him.
"I don't know what I think of you yet- not completely. But I don't pity you like that, and I don't think you're sad or lonely. I know you're not."
For the first time, it seems that you've caught him off guard. That frigid mask falters for just a moment, and you go on before he can replace it,
"You're surrounded by people who care about you. I've seen it for myself. Whatever you've had to do in the service of your ideals- it hasn't kept the people around you from wanting to know and understand you, even if it's despite you."
Hubert is silent for a moment. His gaze bores into you like he thinks he'll discover some hidden layer if he can just keep digging. Then, he sighs,
"How did I ever become bound to such a troublesome spouse..."
When you wrest your arms from his grasp, his hands fall away with little resistance, and you think that perhaps he had never truly intended to keep you in place by force to begin with. He moves to leave the bed, but your fists find the front of his clothing and tug him back down to you.
You press your lips to his without hesitation, and you can feel him inhale sharply, his entire body rigid above you. His lips are surprisingly soft, his scent like coffee and old parchment, and though your heart threatens to burst from your chest, you hold firmly to him by his clothes. Near imperceptibly, he leans down against you, and your fear, along with any remaining doubts, begin to dissolve. Knowing he won't pull away, you let your hands relax against him, running up his chest where you can feel his own pulse pounding. It's so human, so entirely reasonable and normal. Now, at last, Hubert Von Vestra is merely a man of flesh and bone.
Your tongue meets his naturally, your lips parting in time with his as your kiss deepens to a fevered pace. One hand reaches that sharp, handsome jawline, reveling in the erotic sensation of his mouth moving against yours. And yet, all the while, his hands remain staunchly on the bed beside you. He doesn't touch you- doesn't even let his body meet yours.
It's impossible to tell whether passion or madness drives you to bring your teeth to his lower lip, a single insistent bite communicating desire mounting faster than you can contain. And for a moment, you sense something new; a sound catches in Hubert's throat, a reaction he fights to stifle. Then, he pulls away. His pale skin is tinted a rare shade of pink, and his hair is ruffled out of place enough to reveal both narrowed eyes. His cloak has spilled around his frame to surround you both, and somewhere in your frazzled mind, you imagine that you're caught in some beautiful, velvet-lined trap.
"I- must... return to my work." Hubert says stiffly. He pushes up from you and turns away, leaving you still flustered on the bed behind him. You sit upright, holding your arms tight around your body as you watch him straighten his hair and clothes.
"You, uhm..." your face reddens still as you search for the right words, "you could... join me in bed, if you liked."
Hubert turns to the door of his study, speaking without daring to even glance your way,
"Anything that you offer to me now will be born from the impulse to survive. I have been bargained with before." His shoulders slack just slightly, his voice low and sober, "The proudest nobleman will even sell off his own child to a monster if he feels it will spare him its teeth."
You open your mouth to protest, then shut it without a word. You feel that you know your mind and heart, even in this moment, but you lack the words to convince a man like this. In a feeble attempt, you murmur,
"You don't frighten me, Hubert. Not anymore."
He half turns toward you, though his hand remains on the handle of his study door.
"You yourself said that you do not know what you think of me," he says, "As such, I will not lay a hand on you until the day that you do."
You stare down at your hands in your lap, barely registering the sound of the door clicking shut as he leaves you in the bedroom. No matter how you try to sort out your tangled thoughts, the memory of his lips on yours won't leave them. If anything, it eclipses any sense of reason, standing resolutely in the way of your path to clarity. Letting out a groaning sigh, you fall onto your back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as if it could offer you any advice.
What do I think about my own husband? You wonder, the thought nearly enough to make you laugh. Well for one, he's a pain.

A Love That Lasts
a/n: this is a REPOST from my old account @losaslut​ since i’m deleting that blog i’m reposting it here
Pairing: Hank Loza x Reader (non descript reader but if i missed anything please let me know)
Inspo came from this post by @withmyteeth 💕💕
Warnings: none except for tooth rotting fluff and so much love it’ll kill you
Word Count: 2.8k
Moodboard made by me
Tumblr media
It’s nearing two in the afternoon, you’ve been cleaning and re-cleaning for about three hours now to distract you from the fact that Hank got called to go to the clubhouse. “It’s an emergency” is all he told you. Never mind that today is your anniversary, you’re more upset because it’s Saturday, a day both you and Hank agreed that nothing would get in the way of your time together. But, you understand, you’re always understanding. If the club needs him, then he’s there. But as understanding as you are it still doesn’t take away the ache in your chest from not having your boyfriend home with you.
Hence why you’re cleaning. It acts as a good enough distraction but you’re quickly derailed from your tasks by Bishop calling you, and concern is all you feel now. With the ‘emergency’ that’s happening at the clubhouse, your thoughts are spiraling, but the one at the front of your mind is that Hank is hurt, he must be.
You’re quick to answer the phone, fingers shaking and your heart pounding. “Is Hank okay?” You ask, demand really. You’re already shoving your shoes on before Bishop even speaks.
“You should get to the clubhouse, sweetheart.” Bishop’s voice is calm, almost melancholy, and you’re pushed into even more of a worry when the call cuts out.
You can’t help the tears that pool beneath your eyes, nor the shakiness of your hands as you fumble with the keys. Nor can you help the absolute dread in your heart at the thought that Hank could be hurt. He can’t be, your brain tells you, he can’t do this to you, not today. So, you rush out of the house, shoes untied, and make the ten minute drive to the clubhouse. Those ten minutes feel like ten hours, every red light only serving to aggravate you further, but it gives you time to think. Think, really, is not the right word. Worry is more like it. You spend those ten minutes worrying yourself into a panic, preparing for the what if’s.
And when you do finally make it to the clubhouse, you barely have the car parked before you’re tripping over yourself to run up the stairs and slam open the doors, searching frantically for Hank. You don’t find him though, in fact, no one is in the clubhouse. And if you weren’t in such a rush to get to your boyfriend you’d realize that none of the guys’ bikes are out front either. Looking around the room, your confusion triples. Hanging along the walls are fairy lights, meeting in the middle of the roofing to create a canopy that surrounds the lone table in the middle of the room. The lights have been dimmed, a single candle along with two plates of what you assume is Hank’s cooking (you’d recognize the smell anywhere) and an empty vase sit on the table.
You don’t have much time to figure what this could all be about before Hank comes out from the back, stepping into the light and wearing clothes he definitely did not leave the house in. He’s in his nicest pair of jeans (the only ones without grease stains), a simple black button up with the sleeves pushed to his elbows (swoon), and most notably: he’s not wearing his kutte. Now, you’re more amused than anything. It’s clear this must have been a set up, that Hank must have faked the emergency to set all of this up. For what, you’re unsure of. You could be pissed that he lied to you, pissed that he put you through the worry, and you are, sort of. Yes you’re mad that he tricked you, but you’re more in awe over the fact that he put this together for you, like something from a fairytale.
Hank is the first to step towards you, one arm is behind his back while the other reaches out to you. He takes slow and deliberate steps, and you take only one towards him before his hand grasps yours and you’re pulled into his chest, his arm wrapping around you. During this hug you recognize two things. One being that his heart is beating at a rapid pace, it thumps in his chest where your cheek lies. Two being that, with the way your arms are wrapped around his waist, you can feel flower stems. Now, it should be said that you’re not the most intuitive, but you’re starting to suspect this has to do with something bigger than just an anniversary date.
Before you know it, Hank has placed a gentle kiss to the top of your head and pulled back to really look at you. You’re starting to feel underdressed in just shorts and one of Hank’s shirts tucked into it, but with the way your man is looking at you, you can’t help but feel like the most beautiful person in the world. Your arms travel from his back to smooth over his sides and run up his chest, one hand placed behind his neck and the other one fiddling with the top two buttons of his shirt that are undone.
And you smile, you’re smiling so wide it hurts but you don’t care, all you care about is how Hank is staring at you. So much adoration pouring out of him that it makes you want to cry (but you’re using all your willpower to not, you’re going to save your tears for the end of the night). When Hank pulls the flowers from behind his back, four light pink roses (one for every year you’ve been together), you laugh. You’re not sure what else to do honestly, you’re filled with so much happiness and love for your man that it bursts out of you in a laugh that Hank swears is the most beautiful sound in the world.
“Baby-” You’re cut off by Hank kissing you, not too deep, not what some would call passionate, but a soft and slow kiss that lets you know that he’s here, he loves you and he wants you to know it. When he pulls back, your head is spinning for a different reason, spinning with love and thoughts of wanting this to last forever, until the end of time. “What’s all this about?” You breathe out, the wind almost knocked out of you while your brain tries to catch up to the situation.
Hank’s smile widens, and he lets go of you so he can walk over to the table and place the roses in the vase. Turning back to you, he extends his arm again, and once you’re close he lifts your hands up and presses a kiss to your knuckles. And once again, you’re swooning, heart so filled with something you’re sure is greater than love. “You didn’t think I would actually leave you alone on our anniversary, did you?” Hank chuckles softly, kissing your hands again before stepping to the side and pulling out a chair for you to sit in.
“How long did it take you to put this up?” You ask, looking around at the beauty that surrounds you, still in awe of it all.
“Well,” Hank chuckles again, “It was supposed to take an hour at most, but you know how the guys are with getting distracted.” Both of you laugh at this, because it’s true. You wouldn’t doubt that Angel and Coco were probably causing more of a mess than actually helping. Hank sits next to you, and takes your hand in his again. “But I will admit, this has been a few weeks of planning.”
Four years together and Hank still knows how to take your breath away, he still manages to surprise you in everything he does. But you don’t get a chance to speak before he’s pushing your plate closer to you (not his BBQ for once, but an alfredo pasta dish that you’re starting to recognize as the same dish he cooked a few weeks ago, and then again last week (probably preparing and perfecting the recipe)). So, you don’t say anything, you both dig into dinner while throwing glances at each other like teenagers going on their first date, and it’s perfect.
Dessert comes next, Hank goes to the back again and reemerges holding a pie that he definitely made himself (he’ll deny it if you tell anyone, but he does happen to be a pretty solid baker). Through dessert, you’re talking softly about anything and everything. You’re both just happy to be close and together that you don’t bother with any heavy topics. At one point, Hank makes you laugh so hard you throw your head back and snort (something that’s never happened before you met your boyfriend (because that’s how happy he makes you, so unable to control your reactions)).
And when you look up at him, ready to tell him about your adventures yesterday while visiting your mother yesterday, your voice cuts off. Hank is moving towards the bar where, how did you not notice it, a stereo rests. He’s quick to press a few buttons and a soft tune fills the air. It must be something from a symphony, with how melodic and peaceful it is. He returns to your side to pull you from your chair, and you don’t even have time to think when suddenly Hank twirls you around and pulls you into his chest. And the next thing you know, you’re being twirled all around the room, Hank’s hand covering your hand that rests on his chest and his other arm wrapped around your waist.
You’re giggling almost the entire time, both of you gazing into each other’s eyes and smiles so soft that if anyone were to see you, they’d probably be sick with how in love you two are. The songs flow into each other, and you dance for what feels like hours (realistically it’s probably been twenty minutes), no words spoken besides whispering I love you’s periodically. When the songs finally end and you’re both dizzy from the spins and the dips, you both step back from each other and again, the clubhouse is silent. It’s not an eerie kind of silence, but a pleasant one. Being with Hank has taught you that you don’t always need to talk to be able to understand what someone’s feeling. And what you’re feeling right now is an emotion so overwhelming, you do cry. You’re not sobbing, just letting out a few tears from the happiness that flows through your blood.
Hank wipes away your tears, presses a kiss to each cheek, and whisks you away to the back porch where, again, you’re caught off guard by the sheer beauty of it all. More lights are strung up on various boxes and around chairs. The fire pit is lit and the flames dance upwards, filling the space with light and warmth. It’s not until you turn around that you notice blankets and pillows piled together to create a make-shift bed. In front of the set up is the side of the clubhouse, empty. Your thoughts as to what this could be about are answered as Hank steps away from you to turn on a projector that’s sitting on top of a crate, a laptop next to it. You watch as he fiddles with the machines and when you turn back, the projector comes to life, casting light to the otherwise blank wall. When the opening credits of Little Women start playing (because let’s be real, it’s a cinematic masterpiece and the scene with Jo in the attic makes you cry every single time) you don’t bother to wait for your boyfriend while you rush to the pile of blankets (and wow does it feel like you’re on a cloud).
If you could see Hank, you’d see the nervousness plain as day etched into his face, you’d see how his hands shake ever so slightly, you’d see how he gazes at you with a love that even he can’t quite wrap his head around. But soon enough, he joins you in your own little paradise. He wraps you in his arms and lays you against his chest and kisses your head, and you know. You know that this is what heaven feels like. Laying in your man’s arms, feeling his feather-light kisses placed anywhere he can reach, feeling his love radiating off of him and getting absorbed by your mind, body, and soul.
You’re maybe halfway through the movie when Hank shifts and reaches into his pocket (trying so very hard to be stealthy so as to not alert you to what he’s doing (he does, but you don’t say anything)). When you’re both finally settled and the movie continues on, you don’t even realize Hank is fiddling with your fingers, nor do you realize the sudden cool metal that slipped onto your ring finger. It’s not until a whopping eight minutes later (Hank was counting) that he pulls your hand up to his lips and places a delicate kiss onto your knuckles. You turn in his arms, leaning your head back and using the hand that he was holding to rest on his cheek, and pull him down to meet your lips.
The kiss is soft and slow, like you’ve got all the time in the world to just sit here and relish in each other’s love. You move to deepen the kiss and then all of a sudden Hank’s pulling back, grabbing your left hand again, and placing another soft kiss to your knuckles. Only then do you realize why he’d been so focused on your hands, specifically your left one. Because on it rests the most beautiful ring you’ve ever seen. Small diamonds line a gold band, with a slightly larger diamond in the middle. It’s simple, and with the lights all around you it glimmers with every twist of your hand.
You’re too stunned to speak, too in love with Hank to express how your heart is ripping apart and is being replaced by everything him. You’re staring at the ring, mouth open and tears now heavily pouring down your cheeks. And when you finally get your wits about you, you scramble to turn and face Hank, straddling him and placing both hands on his face, eyes searching desperately to find any sense of humor, any sign that he’s joking.
But you don’t find any of that. You find tears gathering in his eyes as he leans you forward to press your forehead against his. His voice is soft, almost afraid to speak too loud and ruin the moment. “Amor,” He stops, taking a deep breath before speaking again, “You’re my everything, my heart and soul, you’re the courage I need to take on anything and everything. You’re…” He pauses again, and a stray tear falls out of his left eye. He pulls you back a fraction so he can stare deep into your eyes, one hand holding your waist and the other takes your hands from his face so he can kiss them once again. “You’re the best thing to ever happen to me. And I hope you keep happening to me for the rest of our lives. I’m pleading, make me the happiest man in the world and say you’ll marry me.”
Hank barely gets out the last word as you smash your lips to his, it’s a little messy, and you do miss his lips at first, but it’s perfect. You’re unable to sustain the kiss for long with how heavy you’re breathing, so instead, you peck his lips once, twice, and then one more time. And then you’re pulling back, and Hank will swear to the end of his days that you’re glowing, shining so bright as you stare at him, and he wants to make you feel like this always. He wants to make you so happy, he wants you to feel the love that he feels, the love that has consumed his entire being.
“Ask me,” You breathe out, lips curved up and shaking from the sob that’s threatening to burst. Hank looks confused at first, so you continue, “You have to ask me first, then I can say yes.”
Hank laughs, he tilts his head back to rest against the pillow behind him and looks up at you with the softest smile to ever grace his beautiful face. “I guess you’re right. So, will you marry me?” And this time, you laugh.
You’re giggling from the sheer happiness of it all, so much that you’re barely able to get out your answer, “Of course I will, handsome.”
The movie’s ended, but you and Hank are still lying wrapped in each other’s arms, content to spend the rest of your lives like this. And you’re hoping with everything in you that this love doesn’t fade, that you’ll be this happy and this in love when you’re both old and gray. But you also know that it won’t. The love you feel could never fade even if you wanted it to (and by the grace of god, you’ll never want to stop loving him).
And while you’re there, in your slice of heaven, you’re already planning the wedding in your head, too excited to become a Loza.

you and heeseung are at the grocery store at your hometown
and you just so happened to run into an old classmate of yours that you used to have a thing for
now, heeseung knows about this person
he’s already asked you about previous partners and romantic interests
so when you and this other person start chatting up a storm
he does start to feel a little jealous
especially when you stand there for 30 minutes talking to this person
you never talk this much to him ◔_◔
when you finally part ways with your old classmate, you can’t tell there’s something wrong at first
heeseung is just following you quietly, not wanting to say or do something that he’ll regret later
and then you finally realize that he’s upset
he will adamantly deny that there’s anything wrong at first
he won’t want to admit that there’s something wrong
because he knows there’s nothing truly wrong
yet he still feels this burning jealousy in the pit of his stomach
finally, after you pester him for 20 minutes straight, he’ll admit that he’s slightly jealous
he’s just so serious and stone-faced
so you give him a hug and lay your head on his shoulder
and give him big puppy dog eyes 🥺
he’s totally a sucker for puppy dog eyes
and when that still doesn’t work, you give him little kisses all over his face
and with that, he literally won’t be able to keep a straight face
he’ll smile and look away for a few seconds
then he’ll realize that the entire thing is so silly and apologize
and you’re now mandated to cuddle with him for the rest of the night to make you both feel better :)

so you and jay are on a fancy restaurant date
both of you are all dressed up, looking cute as all hell
and your waiter just so happened to be one of your brother’s friends
you had seen him around the house a few times since he came over to see your brother
and you had liked a few of your brother’s social media posts with him in them
so you two knew each other fairly well
every time he’d stop by the table, you two would have a little chat
jay took quick notice of this
but you hadn’t told jay that you knew him through your brother
so jay was just kinda like ??? hello we’re on a date and you’re flirting with the waiter right in front of me ???
and he did not hesitate to show his jealousy
whenever the waiter would come back to the table, he’d sigh loudly when you started to talk to him
and he’d try to speak up and interrupt your conversation
he’d tap on the table on on his cup
he’d try to grab your hand on the table and wave to catch your attention
and when all else fails, he’ll whine loudly
he’s so embarrassing to take out in public
after your brother’s friend walked away from the table, you finally realized that he was acting that way because he was jealous
jay would glare at you straight up ask why you were flirting with the waiter
and you’d laugh and tell him that the waiter is your brother’s best friend, so you knew each other
jay’s face would soften lightly and he’d start pouting
“jay did you really think i'd flirt with a waiter right in front of you when we’re on a date???”
“you’re right. you’re at least smart enough to do it behind my back.”
the moment would end in laughter
and you noticed that he got a little more affectionate with you that night, holding your hand all night and giving you little hugs and more pecks on the cheek and forehead
♡ || 𝗷𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗺.
now, jake is not one to get jealous easily
he knows you have guy friends and male co-workers that you have to work closely with
but when you spend more time at the dorm with the other members than him?
that’s what gets to him
you’ll come over to the dorm and instantly just go play games with jungwon and jay
and then afterwards, you’ll let sunoo apply his skincare regiment to you
then after that, you’ll help heeseung cook in the kitchen
and at that point, you’ve been at the dorm already for like three hours and none of that time was spent with jake
and jake is the sole reason you’re even there !!!
he’s your boyfriend after all !!!
at first, jake would stop by every 15 or 20 minutes to ask when you’ll be done and can hang out with him
when you said a few more minutes, he’d smile and respect it
but after three hours of it, he just stopped asking
he’d lay down in his bed
and he’d just watch netflix by himself, not wanting to bother you anymore
he’d get sooo extremely sulky
he just feels so disappointed in himself for not being as interesting as the other members or for not planning out a more interesting day for you two
and he was jealous that the other members got to spend time with you while he couldn’t
it was you that had to go find him
and when you did, he would absolutely refuse to look you in the eye
and he’d get just a tad bit passive aggressive
“wouldn’t you rather spend your time with the kids?”
and you could tell just by the tone of his voice that he’s completely heartbroken
you would have to get into his bed and lay on top of him to get him to look at you
he’d only accept an apology if you gave him puppy dog eyes and a big hug
he can’t resist that
he’d open his blanket up for you and cuddle you up
you’d spend the next few hours watching netflix on his phone
and he would not let you go until you had to leave
♡ || 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗻.
sunghoon doesn’t tend to get jealous easily
but, just like jake, it bothers him when you spend more time with the members than with him
it’s not that he’s worried the other members will take you from him
because c’mon, if you’re with park sunghoon, you’ve already won at life
it’s just that he feels that you’re giving away affection that should be for him
don’t get him wrong, he’s happy that you’re getting along with his 2nd family quite well
but he thinks that he should be your favorite within the group
so like when niki helps you clean up after eating and you pat his head as a thank you
or when sunoo asks you to put makeup on him and you oblige
just those little touches
he feels like they’re meant for people who are together in a romantic relationship
but the main reason you’re always so affectionate with the other members was because you wanted to treat the members like sunghoon’s family and become closer with them
you know how important the members are to him so you wanted to get to know them better
also sunghoon is totally one to bite his tongue at first
but he’ll let it build up so much that he eventually won’t be able to control it
and it will eventually come out
sunghoon will be passive aggressive
claims he’s not jealous and there’s nothing wrong
but he’s sitting there like ಠ╭╮ಠ
so he’s obviously mad
you’ll have to sit down with him and be like
“look, sunghoon, i know you’re not gonna admit it, but i know you’re jealous.”
“i’m not jeal-”
“yes you are! i'm sorry i was hanging out with the other members more than you”
and it’s only then that he’ll take a step back and listen to you
“well i just don’t like it when you’re really affectionate with the kids.”
only took like 4 hours for him to finally admit it
you two talk it through and sunghoon finally comes to an understanding of why you act so affectionate towards the members
and you agree to spend not as much time around them as before
you and sunghoon cool off the night by playing games together while giving each other pecks on the cheeks as a reward for winning
♡ || 𝗸𝗶𝗺 𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗼𝗼.
sunoo doesn’t like it when you spend most of your free time with other people
literally just people in general
he finds insecurity in the thought that you wouldn't want to spend time with him
like obviously if you don’t want to spend time with him but you do with other people, you like those other people more than him
if you’re with sunoo and you’re talking to some other people but you’re not engaging in conversation with sunoo that much
then he’ll pout and try to get your attention
if that doesn’t work, he’ll loop his arms around yours
if that doesn’t work, he’ll hold your hand
and when all else fails, he’ll lay his head on your shoulder
gets really pouty and whiny when jealous
he just wants you to pay attention to him 😭
probably whines so much to the point of annoying you
and now you’re mad at him (◞‸◟;)
ah he didn’t mean for it to end up like this but it just kinda happened
as soon as the two of you are alone, he’s really apologetic
he’ll immediately tell you about his jealousy
and will apologize instantly
sunoo always admits his faults :(
he doesn’t want to make the situation worse by now owning up to his faults and denying that there’s nothing wrong
he’ll say that he only wanted your attention and your time
but he let his jealousy get the better of him
honestly, you’d have to be a monster to not forgive him
it’s this entire fight that causes the two of you to set aside a day a week to make an effort to at least talk to each other or play games or hang out
sunoo just wants your love and affection 🥺
♡ || 𝘆𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗷𝘂𝗻𝗴𝘄𝗼𝗻.
I'm just gonna come right out and say it because i believe this with my entire soul
jungwon gets jealous so easily
he can be very confident with the other members and on stage
but within relationships, because of his inexperience, he lacks that confidence
he gets really insecure around your male friends
he’ll see you talk to them in that same excited manner with that glint in your eye that you do to him
and his brain goes to places it shouldn’t
he knows realistically that it’s probably nothing
like this is totally just your personality
but there’s always that little bundle of doubt
in the moment, he won’t say a word
he’ll just observe the situation
keeping a close eye on you especially
but when you walk away
he’ll instantly go into baby mode
“you still love me right?”
“can you give me a hug?”
“i’m the only person you like like this right?”
“If i was a random stranger on the street, you would still have a crush on me right?”
“can you hold my hand?”
you will have to endlessly reassure him
will walk like -10cm away from you
and will keep you close for the rest of the day
so it’s obvious that jungwon isn’t feeling confident at all
and so you’ll have to have a little talk to him about it
it’s mostly just you reassuring him that he’s the only one you love
he definitely finds security in these little talks
because it helps him recognize that you value him enough to openly communicate with him
and that does spike his confidence!
in following situations when you’re with your male friends, he’ll try to be more in the conversation and not think too much about it
will give you little moments of affection
like rubbing your back
or putting a hand on your knee for a second before taking it back off
that helps boost his confidence as well
but he does actively try to better himself about not getting as jealous as before
♡ || 𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗺𝘂𝗿𝗮 𝗿𝗶𝗸𝗶.
niki’s young so he probably gets jealous left and right
whether that’s when you’re with the other members
or with your friends
or just as school around classmates
his hormones are out of wack and he’s still going through puberty
please don’t blame him :(
niki just doesn’t want to lose you
like jungwon, he’s also not very confident because of his lack of experience in relationships
if you’re talking to the other members or your friends, he gets pouty
watches you very closely
he doesn’t want to insert himself in any way or show that he’s feeling jealous
he’ll get huffy for a little while too
if you question him as to why he’s upset, he’ll outright deny being upset
claim that he’s fine even though he clearly isn’t
will also reject any form of affection
do not touch him or try to talk to him about it
he’ll need a few minutes to sit and think about it
and then after like half an hour of cooling down, he’ll have a better grasp of his feelings
he might not be able to perfectly articulate his feelings into words but you can always hear the emotion in whatever he says
he’s better at displaying his emotions rather than speaking it
he’s a dancer after all
niki would feel so much better through words of reassurance
he just wants to know that he’s doing well
little everyday comments always help make him feel more secure
“niki! you look different today! i think you’ve gotten more handsome?”
lots of i love yous 🥺
“please eat well today!”
“I care about you!!!”
those little comments always make his heart flutter (ノ・ω・)ノ

Okay, so, about a month ago, my brain just conjured up probably the most random au possible: Legally Blonde Adam Banks/banksway au.
Believe me, it's as chaotic as it sounds, but lowkey, I'm kind of in love with it.
Adam never joins the Ducks because there aren't any Ducks to join. Bombay never had to do community service with District Five so there was no one to realise that Adam was on the wrong team all along. He continues to play for the Hawks and, eventually, the Eden Hall Warriors, never getting the chance to become the well-rounded individual we know him as because he's never known anything other than his rich privilege and the "win at all costs" mentality. He ends up going to college on a hockey scholarship and not straight to the NHL or the AHL (shocking, I know). While he's unsure of his major and where his life is heading, he finds solace in the fraternity he joins, which, by some sheer twist of fate, Jesse and Guy have also miraculously joined.
And his life is perfect for a while. He's the star player on yet another school's hockey team, all of his fraternity brothers adore him (though, it took a bit for Jesse to warm up to him), and his secret, not-really-official thing with his former teammate is going swimmingly. (Not to slander my boy, but I was picturing Larson for the role of Warner, purely because the alternative seems to be Rick Riley and that's kind of an unsettling image-- though, maybe that's the point?)
But then his secret boyfriend breaks up with him because, with his high aspirations in life, he needs to be "more serious." And dating Adam Banks, a guy in a stereotypical fraternity who only really knows hockey, in 2001 isn't exactly the white-picket-fence life he's looking for if he's going to be a politician.
And since this non-Duck Adam clearly doesn't have the braincells that canon Adam does, in his devastation, he decides it's a brilliant idea to prove that he is serious by applying to Harvard Law. His parents try to talk him out of it, since they want him to pursue his dreams of hockey, but being a lawyer is a respectable career so they can't exactly argue with him.
He gets accepted thanks to Jesse, Guy, and the rest of his fraternity helping him study for the LSAT and keeping him on track. He's trying his darndest when he gets to Harvard, but (despite his struggle not being as significant as Elle Woods'), not a lot of people take him seriously as an aspiring lawyer, considering him a meathead jock who only got in because of daddy's money.
And that's about the time he meets Linda, who he vaguely remembers from his time at Eden Hall. What he doesn't remember is her being so competitive, because she's deliberately beating him at every turn, just trying (and kind of succeeding) at making him look like a fool. To make matters worse, all of the sudden, she's engaged to his ex-boyfriend, who is very adamant about never telling anyone that he and Adam were more than friends (because, you know, early 2000s homophobia and such).
But things get a little brighter for Adam when he meets Charlie, an undergrad teacher's assistant who gives him all sorts of advice about surviving the school. He introduces him to Professor Bombay, who Charlie claims is the only reason he survived his first year and quickly becomes Adam's favourite teacher, and Charlie's childhood friend Connie, who aspires to be a state senator one day. Charlie's charismatic and even if he's not the most well-liked person at Harvard, Adam feels a weight lifted off his shoulders once he becomes friends with him and Connie. Things become a little easier.
Just before he and Charlie start getting really close, Adam meets Casey at a local diner on a day he's feeling particularly upset and alone, and the two start bonding almost immediately. (He bullshits his way into scaring an ex-husband of hers with legal repercussions he has no idea about and she basically adopts him in return.) It takes him an embarrassing amount of time to realise that it's not just a coincidence that Casey and Charlie share the same last name, which results in poor Adam feeling extremely embarrassed for not connecting the dots sooner while Charlie's having the time of his life teasing him for it. Eventually, when the dust of that settles, Charlie and Adam join forces to set Casey and Bombay up, their schemes borderline ridiculous at times, but they'rere not exactly failing.
And after realising he isn't the Warriors moron she thought he was for going on five years, Linda starts warming up to Adam, which is surprisingly nice? She figures out on her own that there used to be something between him and her fiancé, and is more understanding of Adam than she is mad. Linda actually spills to him the lengths Adam's ex had to go through to actually get into Harvard, aligning more with the rumours about Adam's acceptance being bought than having the aptitude for the law that Linda and Adam share. (This may be me saying Linda and Adam friendship rights, what of it-- /lh)
To make things all the better, Bombay chooses Adam, Linda, Connie, Charlie, and Adam's ex to be on his legal team for a murder case he's responsible for (and while he knows about Adam and Charlie's ploys to hook him up with Charlie's mom, they're his favourites, so he doesn't say anything).
And this is just so much better than anything he had before. After all the initial unpleasantness, Linda and Connie become some of the most genuine friends he's ever had. He misses Guy and Jesse, of course, and he'd never take them for granted, but back when he was with them at the fraternity, a part of him was still being as superficial as he had been in middle and high school. Being authentic for once in his life is liberating.
And Charlie's just about the most considerate person Adam's ever met. Adam doesn't even mind when Charlie teases him over his absurd and juvenile insults because he's just this source of light for Adam, supporting him and always pushing him to be the best version of himself. His ex hardly even exists when Charlie's around because his energy is just so contagious that Adam starts falling for him long before he even realises it. (And when Jesse and Guy come to visit, there's a moment where it all clicks and the four of them realise their history together, however brief. I strongly maintain that they'd be that Starkid meme: "Fucking Hawks? We hated you guys!" "We hated ourselves!" But it does make Adam realise how much better off he would've been if he had Charlie and his team when he was little instead of the Hawks, and it just further makes him understand that people like Larson and Rick Riley just aren't worth it.)
But there's also another revelation Adam goes through. Between helping Casey, his rigorous studies, and his position working with/for Bombay, something just clicks for Adam. He likes being able to help people, fighting for the good guys who may not have the resources they need to be properly defended. Practicing law calls to him in the same way hockey did; it's the feeling of knowing this is what he's meant to do. He still loves hockey, he always will, but it helps him finally grasp that there's a world for him outside of it; when hockey ends for him, there's something equally as rewarding that he can pursue, which was something he never thought he would have.
I haven't a single coherent thought about this au past that point except for these little inklings of an ending--
There's absolutely no SA scene like the movie had; Bombay's just Adam and Charlie's favourite teacher and those are his boys, so he's going to make sure they succeed as if his life depends on it.
With that said, Bombay believes in them both enough to let them finish the case because with their joined determination/stubbornness (and Adam's in with the defendant), Adam and Charlie are a force to be reckoned with and he knows it.
After a handful of comedic failures, they do end up succeeding at their attempts to set Casey and Bombay up, and they start living together sometime during the kids' Junior year :) (All I'm asking is for one (1) story with a Casey/Gordon endgame-- I just think they're neat--)
Linda dumps her fiancé (as she should) and goes on to live her best wlw life as a successful lawyer. (If I'm not mistaken, Linda's actress actually is a lawyer, which is a pretty cool fun fact!!)
Adam and Linda's ex gets the Warner ending because, man, screw that guy /lh (rip to Larson if this is him, I'm sure you'll get a nice endgame in some other universe, king)
Honorary mention for Connie, who was going long distance with Guy this entire time to everyone but Jesse's shock, and they get their Game Changers endgame of State Senator Connie Moreau and stay-at-home dad Guy Germaine with their seven -- sorry, three -- children :)
Adam's an absolute bundle of nerves after graduation, which definitely concerns Charlie. So, when he asks if he's okay, Adam starts nervously monologuing about their time together until he runs out of breath. He ends it by proposing to him, and Charlie smiles so surely at him when he says yes. They both become damn good public defenders and stay engaged until the point they can legally get married, but they're practically husbands long before that happens.
Also, if I did my math right (which I should’ve, it’s my entire basis for my Share Your Address series), the Ducks’ would have the same graduating class year as Elle Woods anyway (2004), which is pretty neat!
Thank you once again for listening to me ramble :)

Lighthouse
Jiang Cheng knows he’s not the easiest boyfriend to have. He’s angry and sharp, never learned to express his emotions properly and on top of that he is a bundle of insecurities. Add to that his insane work schedule and his family and everyone with a functioning brain would know that he’s really not a catch at all.
And yet Nie Mingjue seems to care about exactly none of these things, which Jiang Cheng still finds hard to believe.
But he is yet again reminded that they are in fact a thing when his phone lights up with ‘My soul’. 
Nie Mingjue had put the name in there, once he saw that Jiang Cheng had him saved under his normal name and Nie Mingjue had told him that this was unacceptable, before he promptly changed the name.
The green heart at the end of his new name was Jiang Cheng’s addition and he still blushes when he sees it.
He’s reasonably sure Nie Mingjue doesn’t yet know about it, or else he would have said something about it, Jiang Cheng is sure of it.
Jiang Cheng takes one more moment to stare at the name, basking in the warm feeling it gives him, before he finally picks the call up.
“Mingjue,” Jiang Cheng greets and he immediately relaxes a bit when he hears Nie Mingjue’s answer.
“My heart,” he easily gives back and Jiang Cheng flushes, like he always does when Nie Mingjue calls him that.
“What’s up?” Jiang Cheng asks, hoping to mask his reaction, but Nie Mingjue always knows when he affects him, so it’s a rather futile attempt.
“Listen,” Nie Mingjue says with a smile but just that is enough to make Jiang Cheng’s heart drop to his stomach.
If Nie Mingjue starts the conversation like this then he wants to see Jiang Cheng, wants to do something spontaneous, something he knows Jiang Cheng is not good with, and it brings the tension right back to Jiang Cheng’s shoulders.
“What?” he snaps out and then winces immediately, because Nie Mingjue hasn’t even said anything yet.
“I thought about getting some food for lunch at the place near you. Maybe we could eat together?” Nie Mingjue readily explains and Jiang Cheng closes his eyes at that.
He doesn’t deal well with impromptu meetings like this; instead he likes to have their meetings and dates pre-scheduled, in a way that will let Jiang Cheng prepare for them.
“Mingjue,” Jiang Cheng bites out once he’s sure his voice will hold, but Nie Mingjue doesn’t seem bothered by his tone.
“It’s a question, my heart. You can say no,” he softly tells him and Jiang Cheng takes a deep breath.
He knows that Nie Mingjue doesn’t understand why Jiang Cheng doesn’t do well with spontaneous actions but he’s still very careful to respect Jiang Cheng’s boundaries. 
Nie Mingjue makes it clear that he doesn’t live by the same rules, that he would be delighted if Jiang Cheng initiated something by himself, but he always offers to Jiang Cheng and never completely blindsides him by showing up unannounced.
And Jiang Cheng is beyond grateful for that. 
Jiang Cheng understands that the amount of time people can spend with him before they get bored or annoyed or start to hate him is very limited and he wants to drag his time with Nie Mingjue out for as long as he can.
But that means keeping him at a distance and spacing their meetings out, so that Nie Mingjue doesn’t get fed up with him too quickly.
The dates Jiang Cheng agrees to are always carefully planned, so that there’s enough time in between where Nie Mingjue can forget how annoying and brash Jiang Cheng is.
It’s tiring work, because Jiang Cheng also has to take into consideration that he doesn’t play too hard to get, otherwise Nie Mingjue might tire of him as well, but seeing as they have been together for about six months now it seems to work well for now.
His last partners left him much earlier than this, after all.
“Wanyin?” Nie Mingjue eventually asks when Jiang Cheng takes too long to answer him.
“Oh, sorry,” Jiang Cheng says, scolding himself for getting lost in thought like that.
He tries to remember the last time they saw each other and when they are scheduled to meet next, but Jiang Cheng can’t bring his thoughts into order.
“It’s okay if you don’t want to,” Nie Mingjue says when Jiang Cheng fails to find his words. “You really don’t have to say yes.”
“I don’t—” Jiang Cheng starts but then he cuts himself off. 
He doesn’t want to say no. He wants to see Nie Mingjue and he wants to spend as much time with him as he can, but he is so very afraid that Nie Mingjue will get tired of him, that Jiang Cheng uses whatever goodwill Nie Mingjue has for him up and then he’ll be left alone and without Nie Mingjue.
Jiang Cheng doesn’t want to go back to being without Nie Mingjue.
“I want to see you,” Jiang Cheng finally whispers and just admitting to that feels strange, like he shouldn’t be allowed even that much, but now it’s out there and there’s no way to take it back.
“I can drop off the food at your place, then?” Nie Mingjue asks and Jiang Cheng frowns.
“You don’t want to eat with me?” he asks, hating how unsure he sounds and Nie Mingjue makes a surprised sound.
“Oh, I thought—you said you want to see me, not to eat with me. Dropping off the food seemed like a good compromise?” 
Jiang Cheng’s chest goes all warm at that, because he really doesn’t deserve someone as considerate as Nie Mingjue.
“I want to eat with you, too,” Jiang Cheng decisively says and hopes he doesn’t make a mistake with that.
“I’m glad,” Nie Mingjue whispers. “Send me your order then, and I’ll come over at noon?”
“I will,” Jiang Cheng agrees and when he hangs up on Nie Mingjue he feels all tingly.
He’s not quite sure if it’s nerves or happiness—or a strange combination of the two—and he shakes his hands in an attempt to get rid of the feeling, though he’s not really successful.
Jiang Cheng tries to distract himself with work until it’s time for Nie Mingjue to show up, but of course that doesn’t work too well either.
He can’t stop thinking about how he’s making a big mistake, about how Nie Mingjue is going to resent him so much faster if they meet too often, but on the other hand he really does want to see Nie Mingjue and spend more time with him and the mix of emotions makes him feel vaguely sick.
He just hopes that he can still eat something when Nie Mingjue does finally show up.
Despite Jiang Cheng’s inability to concentrate, time passes much quicker than he thought it would and it feels like between one blink and the next Nie Mingjue is already at his door.
Jiang Cheng takes a deep breath before he lets Nie Mingjue in, but as soon as he sees him all the stress falls off Jiang Cheng.
“Hi,” Jiang Cheng says, rather dumbly, but he isn’t sure how to act—is actually never quite sure how to act around Nie Mingjue—but he must have done something right because Nie Mingjue beams at him.
“Hi,” Nie Mingjue gives back and leans in to brush a kiss over Jiang Cheng’s cheek.
Jiang Cheng immediately goes red in the face, even though this is by far one of the more innocent things they do, but he just can’t help it and Nie Mingjue doesn’t seem to mind much, if the second kiss he bestows upon Jiang Cheng is anything to go by.
“Come in, what are you still doing out there in the hall,” Jiang Cheng grumbles finally and drags Nie Mingjue into his apartment.
“The food’s gonna get cold if you stay out there,” Jiang Cheng mutters when Nie Mingjue just looks at him and that causes Nie Mingjue to smile.
“Doesn’t matter,” he easily says, dropping another kiss to Jiang Cheng’s forehead, but he finally steps into the apartment, making his way to the kitchen.
Despite Jiang Cheng’s half-formed fears, lunch is easy and fun and comfortable and when Nie Mingjue looks at his watch because his break is up, Jiang Cheng finds that he doesn’t want him to leave.
“You have to go back,” Jiang Cheng says, and he’s pretty sure that he can’t quite keep the disappointment out of his voice.
“Sadly,” Nie Mingjue agrees and then reaches out for Jiang Cheng’s hand. “Thank you for letting me come over,” he earnestly says and Jiang Cheng frowns at him.
He knows that this isn’t something to be thanked for, that it should be normal in a relationship, and he hates that Nie Mingjue feels like he has to say that.
“You don’t have to thank me for that,” Jiang Cheng forces out. “You should be mad that you even have to ask in the first place,” he tacks on, and Nie Mingjue squeezes his hand.
“We agreed that we’d go at your pace,” he reminds Jiang Cheng. “And this was a big step, I know that, so of course I should thank you. You’re trying really hard and I know and appreciate that.”
“But this—it shouldn’t even be hard,” Jiang Cheng argues, because sometimes he hates how he holds them back, how insecure he is about all of this.
“But it is for you and that’s okay. Whatever makes you comfortable, I promised you that,” Nie Mingjue tells him and Jiang Cheng deflates with a sigh.
“And what about your comfort?” he quietly asks and Nie Mingjue smiles at him.
“I’m comfortable with whatever makes you comfortable,” he gives back and Jiang Cheng groans because that’s not even a real answer.
Nie Mingjue seems to know that as well, since he pulls Jiang Cheng into his side, slinging an arm around him.
“Sorry,” he mutters and presses a kiss to Jiang Cheng’s head. “But also, seriously. I am just happy when I get to see you. It’s okay that you keep it at a slow pace. I can’t pretend that I understand why you would do that, but if you ever want to tell me, I am here to listen. And I can promise you that I’m not going to pressure you over it.”
Jiang Cheng knows that Nie Mingjue is absolutely sincere about this and it brings tears to his eyes. He’s pretty sure he doesn’t deserve someone as considerate as Nie Mingjue.
Jiang Cheng hides his face in Nie Mingjue’s chest until he feels a little bit more centered. 
“Thank you,” he mutters before he pulls away, because Nie Mingjue really does have to leave now. “You’ll be late.”
“I’m my own boss, who’s going to tell on me,” Nie Mingjue says with a smile but he pulls Jiang Cheng in for a kiss before he finally makes his way back to work.
Jiang Cheng spends some very long moments in the hallway, smiling stupidly at nothing, and he can’t even bring himself to be embarrassed about it.
He knows he got more than lucky with a boyfriend like Nie Mingjue and moments like these always drive that point home.
Jiang Cheng just hopes that he manages to keep Nie Mingjue for a long while yet.
~*~*~
Jiang Cheng is sitting in his lonely, empty apartment and he hates it. It never occurred to him before just how cold and empty it is, was never bothered by it before, but now that he has to spend all his time here because he’s working from home, he realizes just how much he hates it.
It’s his own fault, because he never really bothered decorating it in a way that would make him happy—only ever seeing it as a place to come to to sleep and eat sometimes—but that’s coming back to bite him in the ass now.
It doesn’t feel like his home at all, and Jiang Cheng finds that he doesn’t want to be here.
His work is here, and his mother makes it a habit of dropping by unannounced to check if he’s working like he should—even though there are such things as office hours and Jiang Cheng tries to keep them—and it feels more like a cage than anything else, if Jiang Cheng is being honest.
But just as he knows with certainty that he doesn’t want to be here, there’s only one place Jiang Cheng really wants to be.
And that is with Nie Mingjue.
But it would be an unscheduled date, and he would intrude upon Nie Mingjue’s home, and the danger of Nie Mingjue finding him too demanding is very real.
Jiang Cheng beats himself up over his useless urge to call Nie Mingjue for a while, but in the end it’s too strong for him.
He reaches out for his phone before he can make the conscious decision to do so, but he hesitates before he dials Nie Mingjue’s number.
If he does this now, if he calls him and asks to meet, simply because he cannot stand to be alone for a moment longer, then he owes it to Nie Mingjue to explain to him why he usually keeps him at such a great distance.
Jiang Cheng doesn’t like it, but he tells himself that he at least has to explain. It’s not fair how Jiang Cheng is treating Nie Mingjue after all; not if he keeps it Nie Mingjue at arms-length at all time, but then goes and overthrows his principles like that simply because he feels a bit lonely at home.
But Jiang Cheng feels like he’s a boat adrift at a stormy sea, with no clue where right or left is and Nie Mingjue is his lighthouse, always leading him safely back to shore.
And Jiang Cheng very desperately wants to be with his lighthouse at this moment.
The thought has barely crossed his mind when his fingers already dialled Nie Mingjue’s number.
“My heart,” Nie Mingjue warmly greets him and the words die in Jiang Cheng’s throat as he’s overcome with a feeling of longing that he barely experienced before.
“Wanyin? Are you alright?” Nie Mingjue asks when Jiang Cheng can’t find his voice in time and it jolts him out of his stupor.
“Yes,” he croaks out, but he’s pretty sure that it does nothing to appease Nie Mingjue’s worries.
“What’s wrong?” he asks, just like Jiang Cheng suspected he would and Jiang Cheng presses his eyes closed.
“I’m sorry,” he whispers out, putting a hand over his eyes for good measure, as if he could hide the burning of his eyes even from himself.
“For what?” Nie Mingjue wants to know, but he sounds guarded as if he’s expecting the worst.
“For always keeping you at arms-length,” Jiang Cheng chokes out. “I’m sorry about that.”
“You don’t have to be, I told you that before,” Nie Mingjue tries to reassure him, his voice noticeably softer but Jiang Cheng shakes his head as if Nie Mingjue can see him.
“I do, because I am so adamant about it, but now that I—when I—” he can’t finish his sentence, but it seems like Nie Mingjue understands him anyway.
“You’re not alright, are you?” he carefully asks and Jiang Cheng can’t help but to sob.
“I’m terrified that you’ll get tired of me,” he admits, and there’s nothing he can do to stop the tears. “That I only have a set time-frame with you during which you can endure me and that I’m using it up faster the more often I see you.”
“Oh, my heart, that’s not going to happen. You have all the time in the world with me,” Nie Mingjue lowly tells him.
Jiang Cheng presses his lips together to keep more embarrassing words from spilling out, but it seems like the dam is broken now.
“You don’t know that. Everyone gets tired of me eventually. And I couldn’t stand that with you, I don’t want you to hate me, I love you and I miss you, but you’re going to resent me sooner or later and I want it to be so much later. But that means I can’t see you when I want to, like now, and I’m so sorry.”
There’s a long silence on the other end of the line and Jiang Cheng goes ice-cold with fear. He cannot have possibly reached the end of Nie Mingjue’s good-will just like that, right?
“Come over,” Nie Mingjue suddenly says and Jiang Cheng startles at his voice.
“What?” he croaks out and hates how his voice shakes.
“Come over right now,” Nie Mingjue demands and then simply hangs up on him.
Jiang Cheng stares at his phone for long moments before he gets up on wobbly legs. He doesn’t want to call him or text him that he’s not coming, and so there’s nothing he can do but to obey what Nie Mingjue told him.
Jiang Cheng isn’t quite sure how he makes it to Nie Mingjue’s apartment, doesn’t really notice anything but the mounting panic in his chest the closer he gets to his destination, and all too soon he’s standing in front of Nie Mingjue’s door.
His hand is shaking when he raises it to knock, but his knuckles barely made contact when Nie Mingjue is already yanking the door open.
“I always want to see you,” is what Nie Mingjue greets him with, before he pulls Jiang Cheng into a bone-crushing hug. “There’s not an hour where I don’t think of seeing you or having you at my side,” Nie Mingjue mutters in his hair and it’s enough to dissipate most of Jiang Cheng’s fears.
It’s also enough to make him burst out into tears again.
“I’m so sorry,” Jiang Cheng chokes out, because he’s a mess and Nie Mingjue really doesn’t deserve to have to deal with him and all of his idiotic issues, but Nie Mingjue only tightens his arms around him.
“You’re not a burden and my love for you is not limited,” Nie Mingjue tells him as he pulls him into the apartment.
Jiang Cheng wants to argue against his words, because Nie Mingjue cannot possibly know the last part to be true, but he sound so sure and Jiang Cheng is so tired that he just wants to believe it.
“Are you sure?” he mutters into Nie Mingjue’s chest and Nie Mingjue presses a hard kiss to Jiang Cheng’s head.
“Yes,” he promises him. “There is nothing I am more certain about. And now that I know that this is what has been worrying you, I’ll make sure to tell you however often you need to hear it.”
Jiang Cheng is pretty sure he doesn’t deserve someone like Nie Mingjue in his life, but now that he has him, he’ll try his hardest to never let him go again.
“I love you,” Jiang Cheng mumbles as he pulls away from Nie Mingjue. “And I know you don’t want to hear this, but I am sorry you have to deal with all of my issues,” he whispers and Nie Mingjue cups Jiang Cheng’s cheek in his hand.
“I want to deal with you and all of your issues,” he tells him and Jiang Cheng nuzzles into his hand. “That’s what being in a relationship means, isn’t it? And I wouldn’t want to have it any other way, because it means I get to have you at all.”
“I really don’t deserve you,” Jiang Cheng huffs out with a wet laugh but he also nods. “I want to deal with all of you, too,” he gives back and somehow this feels more serious than simply saying that he loves him.
It has more weight to it, in Jiang Cheng’s mind and it does more to settle his fears than any other words ever could.
“Then let’s deal with us, huh?” Nie Mingjue says with a small smile and pulls Jiang Cheng towards the couch. “How was your day?” he asks as he sits down and tucks Jiang Cheng into his side.
“Horrible,” Jiang Cheng admits and snuggles as close as he can get. “It’s getting better now, though,” he tacks on and goes warm and pliant when Nie Mingjue brushes a kiss over his forehead.
“That’s good to hear,” Nie Mingjue gives back and intertwines their fingers. “Now tell me what was so horrible,” he then prompts and Jiang Cheng surprisingly enough feels comfortable enough to get right into it.
It’s almost easy with Nie Mingjue steady and reliable at his side and Jiang Cheng hopes that he’ll get to keep this for a long while, but he also decides to trust Nie Mingjue in this. Nie Mingjue hasn’t lead him wrong so far, after all.

Perfect Timing
Summary: Taehyung wakes up alone in bed but soon finds you roaming around in the kitchen… almost nude. And a particular remark on your part leads him to uncover a certain kink he wasn’t even aware he had.
Warnings: SMUT! With a hint of fluff, like it’s my usual, but it is 95% smut! Beware of: swearing, erotic body touching, dirty talk, fingering, oral (female receiving), handjobs, marking (just a tiny bit), size kink, breeding kink, unprotected sex (well, duh. But be safe IRL!!!), kitchen sex, doggy style, multiple orgasms (female receiving)
Word Count: 3894
Taehyung woke up slowly, barely opening the lids of his eyes before closing them again to protect from the low light coming in through the small breeches of the blinds. He felt his body hefty and tried to fall back asleep, but his mind was already too much active for that. Rolling over his body, his heavy hands searched around the bed for another figure, your fluffy warm physique that he particularly loved holding in the early mornings. But you were not there, the bed cold without you, even in the warm summer morning.
Frowning, he opens his round sharp eyes just a slit, noticing the moved empty sheets on your side of the bed. Stretching and yawning, Taehyung reaches for his phone and realizes it’s already past ten in the morning. After a few minutes checking his social media and answering a few text messages, he decides to get up.
Getting out of the bedroom, clad in only his boxers and an old red t-shirt, he moves silently down the hallway as he hears rummaging in the kitchen. Peeking his head in the doorway, he smiles and stays slightly hidden from your field of view. The unmistakable scent of freshly made pancakes filled the air and he was sure you had been preparing breakfast. Right now, you were bending down next to a tail-wagging Yeontan, filling his bawl with dry food for him to eat too.
Taehyung licks his lips and his throat grows dry as he notices you are just wearing small cotton panties and a white tank top, probably because you had the tendency to overheat at night during summer. Your fleshy thighs, with dimples of cellulite clinging in the back, and your round ample ass were on full display for him when you bent down and a burning stirring feeling shot straight to his groin.
You smile as you pat the little furry dog’s head, the feeling of being watched making you turn around to notice Taehyung leaning against the kitchen’s doorway. He still looked sleepy, dark hair messy and untamed from turning in the bed, barefoot, eyes with heavy monolids.
“Look who’s awake, Yeontannie! Your daddy is finally up. Do you think it was the food calling him?” You say in a typically high-pitched voice, the one you always used around cute animals.
You go back to the kitchen’s counter, gathering the things necessary to set the table for you both to have breakfast, smiling sweetly at Taehyung before focusing on your task. You didn’t find his silence unusual, sometimes he stayed silent for long moments in the mornings, just taking his time to get fully awake and ready for the day. This time, however, it was for a completely different reason.
You had no idea what you had just ignited in Taehyung. Never before had you referred to him as the ‘Daddy’ of his small dog, and now he had vivid images of young little versions of himself and you running around the house, playing with Yeontan, falling asleep in his arms or cuddled up in yours. Oh, the idea of your stomach rounding and protruding with his children added an uncomfortable stiffness inside his boxers that was beginning to cloud his judgement.
Two arms wrap around your already pillowy middle, long fingers brushing your hair to one side, exposing the back of your neck for hungry lips to attach to the skin there, sending goosebumps down your spine and making your body tense and shudder slightly.
“Sorry I didn’t stay in bed so we could cuddle, babe. I got hungry and didn’t want to wake you up, so I just got up” you explained, thinking Taehyung was just craving your usual morning embraces.
“That’s okay” his even deeper than usual, very coarse from the morning, voice murmurs against your left ear, under which he stamps another kiss.
Large hands start wandering around your body, one sliding up and down the almost naked curve of your hip, the other moving up until it was trapped on the underside of your soft boob, thumb tracing an invisible line at the side over the tank top. Your breathing becomes shallow now, heart flipping inside your chest and muscles paralyzing as you began to wonder if this was more than what you assumed.
“Babe?”
“Love you” that toe-curling masculine tone of his interrupts, mouth kissing down your shoulders now. If you had any doubts, the hand that moved to squeeze your breast and the semi-hard bulge that he was pressing against your ass, fingers clawing at your love handles to keep you in place, made it abundantly clear where this was going. And the fire under your skin that his administrations were gaslighting made you have nothing against it.  
“Me too” you reciprocate in a sigh, giving in to him as you allow your body to fall back into his, one hand covering up the one he still had holding your chest and the other coming up to pull at the hairs behind his neck, moving your head to the side and pulling him in for a kiss.
He takes no reservations deepening the kiss, devouring your willing lips until his mischievous warm tongue of his found its way past your teeth, delving deeper and tasting you to the fullest he wanted to, a highway of sprinting electricity running up your spine and hazing your brain as he swirled around and coaxed your own to respond.
Taking hold of your wide waist, Taehyung turns you around and resumes the heavy smooches, pulling your fluffy body close to his lean one, greedy hands unable to chose a place to settle in, constantly running up and down the expanse of your body he could reach. As the tip of his tongue flicks against yours and roams the sensitive inside of your gums, your body shudders and you moan, the uncomfortable wetness between your legs becoming insufferable.
“Taehyung...” You whisper into his mouth, pulling at his hair and grasping his form close, hinting at your needs by the sway of your hips.
“My dear Y/N…” he mumbles back, eyes still closed before he cradles the side of your head and captures your lips once again. But this time, his wandering hand pulls down the side of the panties that were biting at your flesh and delicious fingers find their way to the shameless damage he had done.
A deep groan escapes him at the same time a soulful moan leaves you when his middle finger goes past your damp folds and slides directly against your sensitive slit. Taehyung keeps his mouth occupied on your skin, leaving your lips vacant so he can hear the beautiful sounds you made. Pulling the collar of your tank top down with his available hand, he finds your breasts covered by a simple bra that he too pulls the cups of it down, exposing your tits for him to play and tease as his other hand rubs between your legs, your own hips starting to move against his digits on their own accord.
When those expert fingers find the little hardening bud at the top of your lower lips, the fingertips press hard circles around it before flicking it mercilessly, enticing your raspy wail and the buckle of your knees, making you almost fall down as you lose your strengths for a moment at the sudden abuse.
“Counter” is all he says when he catches you, pulling you by the waist up.
You just nod and take a few steps until you reach the kitchen’s counter. Taehyung kneels down and you are confused for a moment before he pulls your panties all the way off your bulky legs, starting to kiss up your thighs, hands indulging on the malleable flesh of the back of your legs and moving up to your juicy rump.
“God, Tae!...” you stutter out, letting your head fall back and hands grasping the corner of the counter with iron strength as soon as he lifts one of your legs up to his shoulder and dives in.
The use of both his tongue and fingers leave you absolutely disoriented and unsure of how avoid losing your stand again. He had his eyes closed as he laps on your pussy, lips settling around your clit and ravishing upon it, taste buds flicking the fleshy pearl and then sucking on it for long enough to drive you mad and not enough to send you over the edge. The introduction of his fingers changed that. He first slid the middle finger that had been teasing your entrance, wiggling and curling it inside before withdrawing it unkindly. Then he inserts three at once and you cry out, not from pain but from the absolute pleasure the fullness gave you. His digits drown in your fluids and start rocking back and forth, curling and massaging your inner walls every other time.
It doesn’t take long at all for this overload of stimulations having you pulsating around Taehyung’s fingers, body spasming as an orgasm rips through you suddenly, hoarse cries filling the air. The fact that you had one leg around Tae’s shoulder keeps you from giving out completely, doing your best to pull yourself up as you gripped the counter.
“So beautiful… My magnificent Y/N…” he praises as he brushes your leg off his shoulder and slowly raises back up, all the way kissing your available skin.
Taehyung pauses at your belly, hands pulling the tank top up so he can kiss the soft skin there and knead at the flesh for a moment.
“This round stomach would look so pretty fuller…” he whispers, although now in a more perceptible voice. You raise your eyebrows at that, unsure of what he meant by that.
Further up, he kisses the valley between your tits as his thumbs play with your puckered nipples, only to then lick and suck on both of them in turns, making you arch your back to him.
“These breasts… how much bigger would they get?” It’s a murmur against the sensitive skin of your left tit but you still heard it and the realization sends magnetizing shockwaves to your core.
Your hands claw at the underside of his arms as you try to pull him up, intending to talk about what he meant by all of this, but the look on his face shut you up before you could even formulate the first question in your mind. Eyes hooded and dark with desire, it was both an animalistic gaze as much as it was absolutely vulnerable.
“My cherub Y/N, bearing my seed inside for everyone to see how stunning you are.”
His words are held an inch away from your silenced lips, staring at your confused eyes with purpose, before merging mouths together with a bruising force, ferociously kissing you senseless. The truth is that Taehyung already envisioned you both together until the end of his days, growing up together, getting older together. The proof laid hidden at the bottom of one of his drawers, in a small velvet red box, waiting for the perfect timing.
“Y/N… I want… I need…” he struggles to say, biting at the sides of your neck when the words didn’t come out.
But you already knew perfectly well what he wanted. And you were a bit ashamed of how arousing the idea sounded to you, to partake in what could ultimately tie you and Taehyung together for a lifetime, to have him want to - with you. It was something that had come to you in dreams before, something you never voiced with fear of ruining it. But not now.
Hand brushing down his chest and strong abdominal area, your fingers insert themselves past the hem of his boxers and you take him fully in your hands. It didn’t go unnoticed to you how hard he already was, hot and heavy, how the tip was already staining the palm of your hand with pre-leakage. Your walls throbbed with longing.
“Do it” you determinately whispered back.
The eyes that had closed when you took him in hand shot right open again, finding yours with a cautionary hesitance.
“Are you sure?” He seriously asks, eyes searching yours.
In response, you start stroking his mouthwatering length, hand curled powerfully around his thickness but careful to not scrape the skin, thumb brushing the sensitive red tip every time it reached it. Taehyung almost chokes and his whole-body tenses up as he tries to not give in to the need to thrust his hips into your inviting hand.
“Fuck” he curses, something you tend to only hear from him in such moments.
Suddenly, he takes a strong hold of your hips and spins you around, pinning your front to the cold marble of the counter as he raises your hips up towards him, everything on full display for him. A moment for him to send his boxers to the other side of the room and he teases your hot center with his hard member, rubbing his cock between your folds and coating himself with your overflowing juices. You whimper before biting down on your lips, hands in fists so tight your knuckles turned the palest colour you had ever seen.
“Taehyung…!” you sigh on frustration, looking over your shoulder back at him.
“Want me to fill you up?” he smugly asks, even with the undertone of wistful thinking from himself too. “Flood this pretty pussy with my seed?”
A ravenous spasm goes through your body. He keeps rubbing his dick against your silky middle, the tip brushing against the engorged clitoris with maddening slow strokes.
“Y-Yes. Give me all you got. Put a baby in me, Tae” you talk back.
A growl from the depths of his throat comes up and he bends down to kiss at your shoulder blade before biting into it, surely leaving a purple bruise but you didn’t care. Your body was boiling with need and your senses overwhelmed with him, all of him, only him. You were sure he could even draw blood from your skin and you wouldn’t even feel it.
In an instant so quick that caught you by surprise, Tae stands back up and pulls his hips back from you only to subsequently impale you with his length in a swift thrust. You arch your back, raising your chest off the counter, moaning loud at the sudden but more than welcome intrusion. You never realized how much of a barrier the condom created until now, feeling him bare inside, every inch of his skin, every indentation, every vein pulsating hot against your overly sensitive walls. Taehyung was having similar thoughts, in disbelief of how good you felt around him, how wet and slick you were, how enhanced the pleasure was. He had no idea how he would ever go back.
“Shit, Y/N…! You’re so… fucking… wet.” He stressed the last words with slow but strong thrusts of his hips, the sound of skin slapping skin and the squelching of your bodies together joining your own embarrassing uncoherent pleas.
Taehyung was a big man, which was the reason he preferred to always start with warming you up with his fingers whenever sex was in the cards, usually using more than two fingers to do the job. And still there was always that stretch burn when it was time for the real thing, but always tolerable and more often than not actually welcomed. Any slight hint of pain was more than thumped over by the pleasure of him filling you up, especially when he bottomed out and the tip of his dick reached and perfectly matched the curve of your cervix.
This position in particular was perfect for that effect and he knew it was the quickest way to push you to the edge in record time. When you arched your back, Taehyung reached with his hands around your middle and squeezed your hanging tits, still spilling out of the cups of the bra he had pulled down. Tweaking and pinching your nipples, the lean hips of the man behind you set on a nice rhythm, sliding back until only the tip remained inside before pistoning back in with measured force, making your eyes roll back in your head since the action made him constantly brush the perfect spot at the depth of your tunnel.
“I want you filled with my cum to the bream. I want it to overflow from this tight pussy and see it spill on the ground. And then do it again without wasting a single drop” he said in labored breathes, fingers digging in to your protruding love handles tighter, hips rocking quicker against yours. “Wanna see your stomach swell up with our babies. Play with these tits when they get heavier with milk. Eat you out when you’re pregnant just to know if it’ll taste different.”
You squeal as the dirty talk contributes to your ever-approaching end, this unbearable tight knot in your womb constricting the muscles of your body so severely you feel a vein might pop off. You are sweating profusely, the warm weather not helping for such endeavors, eyesight getting blurred, breathing strenuous and brain shutting down.
“You are taking my cock so well, love” he claims, taking his eyes off your form to witness the way his dick disappears inside you, over and over again, glistening with your juices. Your insides squeeze him at that, making him hiss and close his eyes again. “You like that? You like knowing how good you take care of my bare cock? Do you wanna milk me dry? Want to suck my cum with your pussy, hum?”
“Ta-Taehyung!” you scream out as the first waves of orgasm crash over you, knot unfolding abruptly and a molten pleasure erupts throughout your system, scourging every inch of you, forcing you cry out in delight.
The boy slows down to an almost stop, both to prolong your pleasure but also to restrain himself from following you just yet, when he had other plans. As soon as you come back down from your high, his hips start moving again as he pulls your back flush against his chest, lips attaching to the skin up and down your neck. You are holding yourself up with the palm of your hands pressed against the cooler counter, whimpering once he starts picking up the pace, last orgasm still very much fresh. And yet you can’t help the way your hips move back to meet his, the chase of a new climax claiming your body fast, your head tilting back to rest on Taehyung’s shoulder.
“That’s it, my love. Do it once more for me, yeah?” he whispers almost sweetly into your ear, one hand still fondling your exposed breasts and the other going down to your lush belly, skin sinking to his touch as he rubbed circles there. “Let me knock you up and show off my pregnant wife for everyone to see! We’ll make the most beautiful children.” You never doubted that. With him as their father, how could they turn out anything but perfect.
The hand at your chest drops to dig the bulges of your waist, Taehyung pouncing harder now. You are already more than half-way there and the fact that you can feel the spillage from the tip of his cock when he fastens up, a tell-tale of his own approaching undoing, leaves you at the edge of the precipice.
“Fu… Cum with me, Y/N…! Let’s… let’s cum together” he pleas in your ear.
His digits dart away from your stomach to make way to your mound, where he quickly finds your cluster of nerves and presses harshly and violently against it, at the same time his thrusts hit the spot deep that he reaches so well with debauched speed. The fierce assault of your senses has you mewling in a pitchy voice as the climax spills, so intense and sharp that white noise blacks out your vision and disorienting pleasure claims your turned-to-mush brain.
Taehyung feels with relief your inner walls collapsing on him and he finally allows himself to reach his own end, drilling into you a few more times until he is buried as deep as he can go, spilling his essence into your womb, balls tightening and tingling as warm spurts filled you up, his perspiring body shuddering before stiffening with blissed out relief.
You fall on your elbows forward, barely able to hold yourself on the counter. It takes both of you a good few moments to collect yourselves. When Taehyung pulls out of you, the feeling of fluid stickiness starts to run down your legs and you hear the boy tsk.
“What a waste” he says.
You turn around at that, rearranging your almost nude state and about to question him about something when he pulls you by the waist across the room.
“Wait, Tae, what are you doing?” you wonder, looking confused up at his now fully awake face.
“Taking you to the bedroom. You should have been laid down for this” he explains, seemingly a bit angry with himself as he frowned.
“What are you talking about?”
“The probability of pregnancy is best when the female is laying horizontally. That was not the best position to get you pregnant.”
You halt your step and take him by the hands, forcing him to look at you.
“Hey, Tae, that’s okay. If this didn’t work, we’ll just do it better next time, okay?”
He does seem to perk up at that, eyes enlarging and lighting up like a kid only to revert back to a smug knowing look, accompanied with a cocky grin.  
“So… Already thinking of doing this again, are we?” His arms sneak around your waist and he rocks you both in place, leaning down to level his eyes with you.
“As if you weren’t thinking about it as soon as you pulled out” you rebut, to which he just smiles and shrugs his shoulders. “You… You are really serious about this, Taehyung? About me? Us?” You can’t help but make sure this whole thing wasn’t just a spur of the moment, a very dangerous erotic fantasy that would disappoint him if ever actually coming true in reality.
Taehyung kissed your cheek and pulls you in for one of the tightest hugs you ever got. You smile against his shoulder and hug him back, hands meeting at his back.
“I was never so sure of anything in my life as much as I’m sure of this” he guaranteed.
Later, after a much-needed shower, both fully dressed for the day, siting at the table eating the now cold pancakes for what was now more of a lunch than breakfast, something occurred to you and you tilted your head to the side as you chewed.
“Taehyung?” you call, the man in question not even raising his eyes to you as he devoured the plate in front of him.
“Humm?”
“This morning… did you call me ‘wife’ during sex?”
Taehyung choked until his cheeks turned bright red and it took him several minutes and countless glasses of milk to regain his normal breathing. Maybe there was no such thing as a perfect timing when it came to these things, he realized as he went to get the red box hidden in his drawer.

little bumps in the road (pt. 7)
(now properly capitalized, oh my!)
Previously on LBitR...
Lena’s driving for the first time as they turn south and make their way into Alabama through a maze of country back roads. She had shyly asked if she could take the wheel for a couple of hours after it became increasingly clear that there is absolutely no method to the madness of Kara’s made-up route.
“If not even we know where we’re going, neither can Lex,” is Kara’s reasoning when Lena finally asks, and frankly, she can’t really argue with that logic.
Lena wants to use her time wisely, now that she has ostensibly something useful to do. Driving is a mindless enough activity, allowing her to ground herself--it helps her slow down her brain so she can think more clearly and deliberately, instead of wasting her time freaking out about all the unanswered questions still plaguing her mind.
So maybe she’s compartmentalizing again, but it’s a relief to have all her little imaginary boxes back--it’s not exactly comfortable, but it’s familiar, so Lena will gladly take it.
Kara huffs unhappily at her side, looking at the map Lena had been diligently marking with their stops.
“Disney World is only like, ten hours away, can you believe that?” she says with a pout.
It’s such a Kara Danvers thing to say, Lena can’t help but laugh. “Sadly, I don’t think Orlando is the best place for a fugitive and a dead superhero to lay low.”
Kara nods, but now she’s grinning, waggling her eyebrows. “You know... Disney World is probably the last place they’d ever...”
“We are not going to Disney World, darling, I’m sorry.”
For whatever reason, Kara’s still smiling like an idiot after Lena’s quip. Her sigh is deliberately dramatic this time, and she flops on the passenger seat with a monumental fake-pout to boot.
“Ah, well. It was worth a try.”
Lena doesn’t know what possesses her, but before she can’t stop herself she’s reaching across the console and taking Kara’s hand, giving it a little squeeze.
“One day,” she finds herself saying, “when all of this is over, I’ll take you.”
The assumption--the sheer hope--that such a day would ever come, that any of this would ever be over and done with neatly enough for them to go to Disney World together... absolutely ludicrous.
Lena squashes the hope down immediately, puts it in one of her little boxes under lock and key before it has a chance to grow and turn into something more unmanageable. She moves to take her hand away, and nearly swerves right off the road when Kara grasps it back and squeezes in return.
“I’d like that,” she says, and doesn’t let go.
Lena catches a glimpse of Kara’s expression from the corner of her eye--there’s a hint of happiness in her gaze that has been absent for quite some time, all because of her.
The fact that a fraction of that happiness makes an earnest appearance, right here and now, with Lena? It’s inconceivable, and Lena doesn’t deserve it.
So into a box it goes.
“There’s a small town about fifty miles east from here,” Kara says as she frowns at the map, interrupting Lena’s compartmentalizing. “Maybe we can stop and resupply?”
“Is the town too small for a laundromat?” Lena asks, because the situation has become a little dire on that front. She doesn’t really want to mention it, but their clothes stink.
“Wouldn’t you know it, there’s a small bed-and-breakfast featured--laundry room available, it says.”
Lena ponders for a moment. She’s been thinking about it since Kara mentioned there might still be some Kryptonite in her system, and maybe, now that they seem to be talking again, it’s the right time to ask.
“Is the town big enough for a hotel, maybe? One with Internet, perhaps?”
Kara frowns, putting the map down on her lap. “We can’t risk it, Lena.”
“Hear me out--do you still... do you feel any Kryptonite in your system?”
Kara’s brows furrow even further--the crinkle appears full force--and her confusion is evident. “What does that have to do with a hotel with Internet?” Lena shoots her a look, and thankfully Kara seems to understand that it means I’ll explain, just humour me. She sighs. “Maybe. I’m not sure. Sometimes it feels like... traces of it, I guess? A twinge here, a little burning there. It doesn’t feel like anything I’ve ever dealt with before.”
“Probably something to do with the way it was synthesized,” Lena mutters, mostly to herself. Lena’s sole consolation lies in the fact that she is pretty certain she was not the one to do it--though her memory is still infuriatingly blurry, Lena figures that if she had been the one to synthesize this Kryptonite strain, she’d at least have some answers as to why it is still affecting Kara.
And she has absolutely none.
“We need to analyse your blood, somehow, but we don’t have the facilities to do it.”
“Facilities? Alex will analyse my blood,” Kara retorts, lips settling into an adamant line. “Once she’s able to reach out to us, she’ll help.”
“I’m sure she will, but Kara--it’s been over two weeks with zero contact, and we have no idea when she’ll be able to respond. We don’t know what kind of havoc that thing is still wreaking in your body -- we need to at least take a look.”
Kara’s little huff tells Lena her point has been accepted, albeit reluctantly. “Alright, fine. I still don’t understand what a hotel with Internet brings to the table.”
“Since we don’t have the facilities, I need to research places that do--medical facilities, hell, I’d even take a place with good veterinary equipment. Atlanta is closest, at the moment, but we could go further if we need to.”
Kara’s eyes widen in clear incredulity. “Medical facilities? Lena, what are you going to do--research some place and then what, break in and use their equipment? That’s your plan?”
“Do you have a better one, besides waiting for Alex?” Lena retorts, eyes narrowing. “The sooner we know what’s wrong with you, the sooner we can fix it.”
Kara opens her mouth, closes it again. The crinkle shows no signs of disappearing, and she’s silent for several moments before releasing an almighty huff.
“S’too risky. No way.”
Lena nods, because she expected this--thought about it ever since their little pizza night at that motel in Tennessee. She has to throw in that option as... security, really, because her real plan is quite a bit more complicated--bordering on insane, really, not to mention completely irresponsible.
“There’s another option,” she says evenly, trying to keep her eyes on the road. “Further north--and breaking in would be, uh. Simpler. Still dangerous, but simpler.”
Kara raises a suspicious brow. “And that would be?”
Lena swallows. “LuthorCorp HQ in Metropolis.”

sorry I prematurely sent an ask lol I meant to say prompt 18 for ollie and wicks for the cliche prompt list :) also I love ur writing
hi, sorry that this took so long to answer. it appeared in my inbox a couple of weeks ago, rather than back when you first sent this (which i am still incredibly confused about)
18 - Fake Dating
Ollie winces as he glances down at where his and Pacer's hands are interlocked on the table. This is fine. This is absolutely fine. He ignores the squeeze of his stomach and instead focuses on taking a sip of his coffee.
He completely understands why Pacer asked him to do this. He really does. Who wouldn't agree pretend to date their best friend when said friend's ex walked into the café? Ollie did what any other bro would do, but there's a small traitorous part of his brain that doesn't seem to understand that this isn't real, that Pacer wouldn't be touching him in such a painfully intimate and gentle way, that he wouldn't be casting such a fond look towards Ollie if it weren't for Luke walking into Annie's.
He lets the coffee wash down his throat, somehow not tasting any of it, and squeezes Pacer's hand in a hopefully reassuringly manner. Pacer doesn't look any less like a rabbit in the headlights, so Ollie's not sure how much it actually helped, but it was worth a shot.
Ollie feels more than sees Pacer start to panic, his grip getting tighter and the entire atmosphere of the café feeling far more tense than it did even two seconds ago. He feels a prescence at his back and he suddenly realises that Luke has absolutely come over to the table and is standing right behind him.
Fuck.
Ollie loves Pacer (loves??? He'll have to come back to that later), but he doesn't think he really wants to end up in a fistfight with Pacer's football-playing ex-boyfriend. Like yes, Ollie is a six-foot whatever hockey forward, but he is not the fighting kind, whereas Luke definitely is.
He turns in his chair and his nervous gulp echoes through his head as he stares up at Luke. "Hi." He plasters a smile on his face.
"Hey." Luke frowns down at him for a second or two before his expression breaks into a grin. "I'm glad that you two finally got your shit sorted out."
Their?? Their shit?
Dude, Ollie's the only one pining at this table.
"You know, especially considering that it was one of the reasons me and Pace broke it off in the end. You know, I just couldn't really compete with what you guys had."
Ollie feels his cheeks heat up. This is- this is oddly nice for a shovel talk from your fake boyfriend's ex-boyfriend? Wait, what did he just say about-
Ollie's brain stutters to a grinding halt. They broke up because of his crush on Pacer?
No, that's not-
He casts a glance at Pace's crimson cheeks and they way he's avoiding Ollie's gaze and suddenly the gears in his head start turning again, but this time it's at a million miles per hour.
Ollie's suddenly very aware that it's been at least a minute since anyone last spoke and the atmosphere at their table is very, very, awkward. He clears his throat and keeps his gaze steadied on Pace. "Yeah, I'm pretty glad we got it sorted too. I couldn't imagine my life without him to be honest." A small, genuine smile creeps across his face without his permission and honestly he isn't mad about it.
Luke claps him on the shoulder and suddenly Ollie's broken away from the moment he'd been frozen in with Pacer. "Good talk, bro. Anyway, my boyfriend's waiting for me outside, so I gotta dash, but catch you later, huh?"
"Yeah," Ollie says, Luke already halfway out the door, "good talk." He slowly turns in his chair to look at Pace and a wide grin spreads across his face as much as he tries to stop it. "So, you guys broke up because of us?"
His best friend goes an even brighter shade of red (somehow?) and buries his face in his palms. "Please," he groans and he sounds genuinely pained and it takes everything in Ollie's power not to reach out across the table and touch him, "don't." Pacer looks up from his hands and he looks destroyed. "It was just a silly crush a couple of years ago. Just- just forget about it. Honestly."
Oh.
Oh.
Ollie reaches out and grabs Pacer's hand where it's laying on the table. "What if- what if I don't want to forget?"
Pacer flinches. "Ol, seriously, please don't indulge me. I'll get over it I promise."
Ollie cautiously draws their joined hands up to his mouth and kisses the back of Pacer's hand. He's like 90% sure that he looks like an idiot doing it, but it has the desired effect as Pace's mouth falls into a gentle 'o'-shape. "What part of this is me indulging you?"
"Are you serious? Ol?"
He squeezes Pace's hand. "Of course. It's kind of difficult to prove it to you with a kiss, considering the-" he gestures with his hand to the table between them "-but if we head outside, I could probably give it my best shot?"
Pacer's out of the door before Ollie even closes his mouth.

Headcanon/fic: "Tom with superpowers"
Reader x Tom Hiddleston/Loki
Gender neutral reader
Context: in the same world that happens the whole Avengers situation, Marvel releases the movies. You get a job as health assistant in the franchise, helping the injured actors while they train. There, you met Tom Hiddleston, and... maybe someone else too.
Tumblr media
Loki won his reputation in Midgard the wrong way, since the whole New York incident. You knew him well as the selfish psychopath you thought he was.
But ever since you started working in Marvel, you got a bit into the story and past of him and understood his character better. You thought he was quite charming.
Actually, you thought Tom Hiddleston, his actor, was more than charming.
You met him on a rainy day. Your scrubs were soaking wet, since you've come to work by walking (a terrible idea) and the rain caught you in the middle.
Someone in the entrance told you to get something dry from the lost & found box, and so you did.
A nice and warm hoodie replaced the top of your scrubs and you started drying your hair with a towel as you walked on set.
"Excuse me", said a deep and harmonious voice, touching your shoulder. "I think that belongs to me".
You lifted your gaze at the stranger and as soon as you met his eyes, both were speechless.
Tom Hiddleston in person. God, the man was even more beautiful than through a screen. You smiled nervously as he smirked. He didn't take his eyes off you for a second.
"What?", you finally said.
"You have my hoodie".
"Oh, I'm... I'm really sorry. I was... anyways, I'm giving it back now" you tried to articulate, still choking on your words. He noticed you were nervous and didn't comment on it. What a gentleman, you thought.
"Give it back in dinner, would you?" he said suddenly, yet smoothly. You had to blink twice to realize what he just said. "Meet you at eight in the doorway? I'll take you somewhere nice and quiet".
Your mind was off for the rest of the day, until dinner came along. Your coworkers noticed your brain was somewhere else than in the present, but they didn't say anything; they kind of figured Tom would've asked you out. They saw how he smiled at you on set the whole day.
Dinner was perfect, and so were the other five, six, seven...
You started dating very frequently. Always kept it down, avoiding the press rumors, avoiding paparazzis, keeping private life... well, private.
If there was something you definetly loved about him, was his passion. He was passionate about everything he spoke about. And he was even more passionate about listening to you talking.
And when you spoke your mind off about how Loki was misunderstood, and such a good character, such an interesting person (well, God); he listened.
Sometimes you could catch a glimpse of him being still on character. He'd say or do something and you'd answer "your Loki is showing", and he'd get all nervous and blushed.
You always wondered why. It's normal for actors to slip away something of their characters sometimes. Why did he get so embarrassed about it?
It was even more in interviews. He'd hide pretty well those assets that you'd connect so much to Loki's personality, afraid he might not "look Tom enough".
Already years into the relationship, you have already made it public. You still worked for Marvel and spent a lot of time on set, and sometimes you walked in some interviews.
There was this specific interview where you walked accidentally in the room, and he greeted you, with the camera running, with the most Loki tone of voice possible.
"Hello, baby".
Tom never called you baby. Not even when you called him daddy. He'd call you darling, dear, beloved, my love, my sweet, sweetheart, lover... but baby? Never that.
As soon as he realized those foreign words slipping out of his tongue, his face straightened and went into what you'd call his 'dark mode', a very serious face he made when his inner Loki spilled out of his words.
The 'dark mode' only could be described as the face someone does when making a big, irreparable mistake. Like saying the words he should've never said.
And it only faded away when he realized you didn't notice it. Like he was hiding a big secret from you, and those words would give him away.
But they never did, and he always relaxed his face to see that you were unaware of what he was hiding.
"Baby..." you recalled that same night, wrapped around in the warmth of the blankets. "You went all Loki today. But I like it. It fits you so well".
He stared at you from the doorstep, holding a book he promised to read you before sleeping. He smiled slightly and turned that smirk into a sad look very quickly.
"What's wrong, honey?".
"Nothing, my love. I'm just tired from work, that's all".
"For playing the God of lies, you're a terrible liar" you mocked him. He sat by your side and caressed your cheek with the soft touch of his hand.
"You're the only one who's always been able to read right through my bullshit. That's one of the reasons I love you so much". He said quietly.
"I'd love to know what goes through your mind when the character slips through your words. You play him marvelously, you shouldn't be ashamed to have gotten used to some of his mannerisms", you told him while running your fingers through his hair.
"I'd say I have too many of them".
"Yeah", you chuckled "it's almost like Loki is playing you, instead of you playing Loki".
"Oh, darling. Only if you knew", he said with the deepest and sexiest voice he has ever spoken.
"What's that supposed to mean?" you whispered.
He laughed slightly, and cut the conversation off with a "nothing, I'm just messing with you".
But you knew he wasn't.
Something in his eyes... he couldn't lie to you any longer. Not with you allowing it.
"What is it? I really, really want to know".
You insisted and insisted. He rolled his eyes and said nothing all night.
Next morning he didn't awake by your side. You were waiting for him in the kitchen, with a fresh cup of tea and a teasing smile on your face.
"Good morning, love" he said, hands in your waist while kissing both of your cheeks. "What are you doing up so early?".
"I want to do something crazy".
"Oh no".
"Oh yes".
"What do you want to do?".
"Let's go to Asgard. Let's go to catch a glimpse of the cell Loki is supposedly locked up in. I know it sounds crazy, but I really think it would help you with the character building. You know, since you give such importance to the role and..."
But he didn't let you finish, and closed the conversation with a "no way. Absolutely not".
And there was nothing else to discuss.
"I'm going".
"He's a crazy murderer that wants to slave everybody. There is no way I'm letting you see him".
"I'm going you like it or not", you said, grabbing your keys and going towards the door.
He stood infront of you with the most serious look you've ever seen in his face. "You're not going".
"Just one reason, give me one".
"He's not in his cell, you wouldn't find him there".
"And how do you know that?".
His eyes, that once showed anger and concern, were now fearful and disappointed.
"I can't say".
"This has to do with your 'dark mode', doesn't it? What are you hiding from me, Thomas?".
He sighed. Hugged you tightly as if you were never holding him again after what you'd hear next.
He whispered in your ear "I'm sorry for lying. It's just what I do best".
Tom and the expressions that differentiated him from Loki got bathed in a golden light. His hair became long and dark, his facial hair disappeared, his eyebrows got fixed (exactly how they made his make up for the movies), and his midgardian shirt and trousers transformed into the leather and metal armor that represented Loki so well.
"Oh my FUCKING GOD" you yelled as you hold your body against the wall, trying not to fall. Your legs were shaking.
"Yes".
"YOU'RE--".
"The... fucking God".
"H-how??".
"Long story short, I needed to start over. And I'm a shapeshifter, it's not too hard for me to disguise".
You sat on a chair and he did the same. You looked at him up and down as you steadied yourself. Once you were already taking all the madness in, you were able to speak.
"So, you could've pretended to be ANY midgardian out here".
"I could've".
"And you chose to become an actor that would play you?".
He laughed, with the same laughter Tom had. He's the same man I fell in love with, after all, you thought.
He started saying that he understood if you felt unsafe and lied to with him. That if you wanted to end the relationship his soul would ache eternally, but he would let you go. That he did something unforgivable; he played with your trust.
You got up and cupped your hands around his neck, leaving a small kiss on his lips.
"Shut up".
"Beg you pardon?".
"I love you, I don't care about anything else. To me, now you're Tom with superpowers".
"That's the most stupid yet most lovable thing you've ever told me".
"I'm sure I said stupider things". And you glanced down. "I wonder how much of your God skills you were hiding all this time".
He smiled before lifting you in the air and taking you bride style to the bedroom.
"Oh, baby, you'll see".

NCT Dream reaction : you give them a handmade gift
M.list
Genre : fluff fluff fluff
Word count : 2.5K words
Tumblr media
Mark Lee
*sigh* my overworked baby, SM pls let him rest
he probably forgets to eat from time to time or just doesn’t time to
which breaks your poor little heart :<
so when Mark stays in the recording room until late in the night once again, you don’t go to him empty handed
you go to him with a handful of homemade cookies!!! ヽ(^◇^*)/
when you enter the studio, Mark’s slumped figure immediately straightens up, tired eyes lighting up at the sight of you
he turns in his chair and stretched out his arms to you with a puppy face and your heart :((( just :((((( melts :(((((((((( wow mark no need to kill us all with your babie culture
but who are you to say no to this angel with somewhat less appropriate thoughts but you didn’t hear this from me so you don’t hesitate to walk into his open arms
he lays his head on your stomach, nuzzling into you and cuddling up to you like a clingy koala bear as you run your fingers comfortingly through his hair, lightly massaging his head 
with the serene atmosphere you almost forgot why you came so you pulled away from Mark, your heart clenching at his whine and bring the bag with the cookies out of your backpack and thrust it in his hands
he looks from you to the bag and back with eyes so wide and innocent your brain almost short circuited at the utter cuteness
he digs into it once you prompt him to, a soft ‘woah’ coming out from him once he was hit with the sight of freshly baked cookies
“daaamn these are so good, babe” your eyes shine with pride
as he sticks one in his mouth, munching delighted at it (◠‿◠✿) , he grabs you with an arm, sitting you on his lap like a baby that you are and prodding your lips with another cookie he grabbed out of the bag
“oh no, I made these for you, I don’t-”
he doesn’t let you finish your sentence as he pushes the cookie in your mouth, watching you fondly as you start munching on it and patting your head with a gentle hand
“you’re so much cuter when you’re not nagging”
*GASP*
the Disrespect
Huang Renjun
this baby probably also showers you in his own gifts such as paintings or drawing of you sooo
it’s only proper that you also gist him something made by you (°∀°)
you work your cute ass off to perfect the most adorable Moomin key-chain you can come up with *huff* 
the day you finally deem it good enough to be shown to the top artist Huang Renjun you sweat buckets as you approach him
Renjun is busy on his iPad as you paddle over to him and stick the key-chain in his face with a dumb but proud smile “here”
Renjun turns to you with a blank face “what is this?”
●‿●
when I tell you the blood drained from your face and you died 50 times internally, your soul just left your body and you saw your life flash before your eyes ‘well life was good, time to say goodbye eyy’
you manage a loud and definitely not artificial laugh
“HAHAHA JUST AN UGLY THING I made I MEAN FOUND HAha ʰᵃ!!! Hey doesn’t it look like you in the morning?!” 
that’s when you knew you gotta bolt the scene
but Renjun of course couldn’t let your embarrassment end there the grumpy little gremlin
he snatched the keychain from you and curled his other hand around you, gluing you to his side and you froze as you looked into his sparkly wide eyes ( Renjun’s eyes are galaxies fite me )
“you made this for me?”
“uh yeah” 
warning : you were strangled to death by Renjun who deemed that a simple ‘thank you’ just couldn’t suffice, you had to die asphyxiated by his bear hug
“thank u thank u thank it’s so cute, I love it so much! I love you so much!!!”
“do you love me more than Moomin?”
warning 2 : he threw you away faster than he captured you in his deathly cute hug
“know your place, no. 2″
(¤﹏¤)
Lee Jeno
so Jeno is just a biiiiit upset at you maybe
okay maybe a bit more than just a bit
because you might or might have not broken his favorite cup which, mind you, was also a gift from you, when you were at the dorms
so now this overgrown baby gives you THE stinky eye and makes sarcastic and grumpy remarks with any chance he gets
and honesty as much as you love him, you’re ABSOLUTELY DONE with his pettiness :’)
that’s how you find yourself seated at your desk with a blank cup, acrylic watercolors and brushes spread everywhere as you squeeze every ounce of willpower to finish what you started
so after 2 mental breakdown, painted fingers and a veryyy dirty desk, you finished painting a cute design on Jeno’s new cup
you let it dry and didn’t waste another second to bring it to Jeno who still sulked at the dorms
once you were let inside, you trudged over to Jeno who was sat at the couch, refusing to get up and greet you with kisses as he usually did and slammed the cup on the coffee table in front of him
his frown turned into a confused puppy face so fast his duality amazed you once again, he lifted the cup gently, running the tips of his fingers gently over the paintings you worked so hard to complete for him
“are you still mad, nono?”
his silence was quite unnerving as you started to tire yourself out, your voice weakened by worry, but he lifted his head, looking at you with eyes so soft your heart fluttered wildly in your chest
“mad? you-you did this for me and you think I’m mad?”
he put the cup down much gentler than you and stood up from his seat, engulfing you in his arms, one of his hands squeezing you impossibly close to him and the other one cradling your head to his chest
“I think I just fell in love with you once again”
“if you fall in love just from a painted cup I should be more careful when I leave you alone”
he chuckled at your witty remark, kissing the side of his neck
once you broke apart, he placed his new favorite cup on the highest shelf and turned to you with a shit-eating grin
“i’ll put this here so maybe you won’t break this one too”
“sleep with an eye open tonight, lee” (☉‿☉✿)
Lee Donghyuck
so another overworked baby of mine bless his soul
his schedule is so packed so even though he’d cuddle with you until the end of times you actually didn’t get to do that as often as you’d like
and we all know how whiny lil cutie baby Haechanie can get when he doesn’t get what he wants :’))))
and since unfortunately you can’t be beside him all of the time like he wants you to, you decide the next best thing : you knit him a scarf !! you even stuck a tag made out of a soft material with a drawing of a smiley sun to one end of the scarf
he looks so shocked when you skip into his room and lovingly strangle him with the scarf
and you swear you could see his eyes glisten when you tell him you made it yourself and he remembers the bandaids that seemed to grow in number every day which you always shrugged of when he asked
although the tears may be from the lack of air  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
n e way, he looks so thankful as he wordlessly cradles your hands in his, bringing them up to his lips and taking the time to litter kisses over every single one of your small injuries, whispering a soft ‘i love you’ at the end
you swear your heart runs leaps through your rib cage
he just loves you so so much and would appreciate anything you give him 
you bring his face back up and press a huge *smooch* on his lips and you both giggle in between your kisses
why so cute you lovebirds?!?
he brings the scarf everywhere he goes, to the dorms, to every show, concert, whenever he travels somewhere, no matter the season
it becomes his lucky charm
once, Renjun sends you a picture of your Hyuckie sleeping cuddled up to the scarf, his nose nuzzled into it
“you know I won’t let him forget about this. EVER” you smirk at Renjun’s text, typing back a reply
“pls do” ( ಠ◡ಠ )
Na Jaemin
this sweet boi hold close to his heart anything you give him
so there’s literally no reason to stress over the bracelet you decided to craft for him
but you being you of course you want to rip your hair out every time something doesn’t go your way ah the levels of patience are definitely soaring through the roof
you even swallowed your pride and asked Jeno for help (read as used him as a puppet) so you were sure you’d get the right size
so after doubting the colors, patterns, material, your entire life choices, you asked Jaemin to close his eyes the next time you met up
with extra shaky fingers, you wrapped the bracelet around his wrist and fumbled to tie it properly
“I’m not getting any younger over here, y/n”
“shut up, mommy jaemie”
he managed to slap the back of your head even with his eyes closed (>‘o’)>
so when you finally tied a sturdy knot with your chicken fingers, you let him open his eyes and beach let me tell you the way his entire face broke into a smile at the sight of the pretty bracelet around your wrist
the sun seemed to pale in comparison with his precious smile, jaemin lights up the world no question, there’s no way you can convince me otherwise
“oh my God, my baby spent time making me such a pretty gift, I must have saved a country in my previous life, come here, let me smooch you into next week (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧ “
so that’s how you ended up trapped in Jaemin’s embrace FOREVER
he kept on complimenting you the entire day and made it his mission to boast to every member he could get is hands on about his pretty gift made by his even prettier baby, he’s such a sucker for you no joke whipped culture right here m’am
“Jaemin, the the threads are getting dirty, don’t you think it’s time to take it off-?”
“I’ll die wearing this ʘ‿ʘ“
Zhong Chenle
among all of his ultra expensive things he has, he is dead sure that you’re the most precious in his life
he often told you he’d give up every penny in his bank and all his fame as long as he got to keep you by his side
he regarded you as a ray of warm light when the world left him cold and he swore he’d fight off anything and anyone who dared to hurt you
so this is how he found himself a bit confused and extremely guilty over how he is supposed to fight himself, watch and learn baby
he never meant to upset you, especially over something you poured your blood, sweat and tears into perfecting it just for him
sure, you were aware the Chinese patters you sewed carefully into a pristine white material weren’t perfect, but the way he laughed in you face once you offered it to him toppled your negative emotions over
he wasn’t aware that you sewed it yourself when he made fun of it
“jeez, where did you get this from, Y/N, the clownery fair? even though you should report them for to costumer protection for its ugliness”
“maybe I should report you for being a bitchy prick” ʕ ಡ ﹏ ಡ ʔ
you glare at him and storm away, slamming the door
chenle, the most oblivious and babiest boyfriend : (Θ︹Θ)ს well shit
but of course you couldn’t stay mad at him for long when he sweet talked his way back into your good side basically every minute of the day after finding out from Renjun (this angry angel helped you bless his soul) how hard you worked to sew that
so even though you’re still sulking a lil bit
you accept to come over at his house and as soon as you enter his room you’re shook
where one of his posters once hung above his bed now stood your sewing project proudly
you stared in awe like (’◎’)
“but I though you said it’s ugly”
“that’s before I knew it’s made by you. Anything you did is directly promoted to gorgeous, admirable, incomparable-”
ヾ(@⌒▽⌒@)ノ
3 weeks later while cuddling 
you : *GASP* “I’m so sorry for calling you a bitchy prick, baby”
Park Jisung
he is a giant as much as he is a baby and you agree with me even if you don’t 
babies are fascinated by almost anything, especially colorful things
which means Jisung is also fascinated by colorful things ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ
so when you met and you pulled out a few origami figures of different, lively colors, Jisung : (✪㉨✪)
“woah, how did you do these?”
“they’re like basic origami figurines”
if he wasn’t amazed enough already
when you picked up a purple frog and pressed on its bottom and it jumped, Jisung jumped up with it
“WOAH, how did you do THAT?”
you didn’t have the heart to break his innocent awe and tell him it didn’t take longer than 5 minutes to make that frog
so you just settled for a shrug and a simple
“magic, Jisung, magic”
at that, he straightens up in his seat, his awestruck expression fading into a serious one as he grips your shoulders tightly (´_`)
“you’ve been lying to me, haven’t you?” ~(。☉︵ ಠ@)>
“what do you mean, sungie?”
“you’re a wizard!!!!!!!!!”
*facepalm* *internal sigh* *whale noises because cuteness levels are just too high* 
“uh, yeah sure, baby, whatever floats your boat”
you try to turn away to hide your growing smile, but jisung isn’t having it
“no, you can’t leave me like this!! teach me!!!1!”
he grips your sleeve and looks at you with such wide innocent eyes as if you’re another wonder of the world and you swear you melt on the spot
“well, you know, my services aren’t free” (¬‿¬)
“what do you want?”
“kisses?” ( jisung shutting down )
“k-kisses? kisses??!? i mean *clears throat and buffs up* yeah sure, that’s all? i can do kisses” ( this baby blushed after only mentioning it but okay boss baby go off I guess ) (*~▽~)
he could’t even be disappointed when he found out origami was nowhere near to magic when you spoiled him with kithes all evening *cue a red Jisungie*
