Silent world loud mind
Sully family x Deaf! Omatikaya! reader
When you lose your hearing after a battle and the sully’s help you navigate your new life
Tumblr media
Neteyam, Lo’ak, and you were supposed to have been spotters during the train line attack but Lo’ak being the skxqwng he is went down to the battle saying that they could take this as a chance to get more supplies.
“LO’AK COME BACK HERE YOU SKXWNG!” Neteyam said calling out to his younger brother before flying after him on his Ikran
“NETEYAM WAIT!” you yelled at your best friend but he couldn’t hear you and continued to fly down “dear Eywa why did you make these boys so stupid” you said as you followed the two
Down on the ground you found Neteyam and Lo’ak grabbing guns and ammo, you grab the boys trying to bring them back to the Ikrans before their father found you three
“Come on we have to get back be-“
BOOM
Something explodes right behind you knocking the you and Neteyam to the ground as you were closer and knocking Lo’ak into his butt. The explosion had left the brothers disoriented and you knocked out as Jake finally finds the three of you after having noticed your ikrans on the ground.
“Lo’ak get out of here go on!” He yelled at the younger boy trying to find you and the older boy.
“NETEYAM”
“NETEYAM WHERE ARE YOU”
Finally Jake found him. He picked his son up checking his back for any possible exit hole from a bullet. None were found to his relief
“What the hell were you thinking! Your supposed to spot not be on the ground!” Jake hissed at the boy. Jake picked him up and put his son on his shoulder
Neteyam groaned “I’m sorry sir” before realizing you weren’t there nobody had found you “sir Y/N, she was with us! Neteyam said with urgency you we’re probably hurt worse thank he was
“HOW COULD YOU BRING HER DOWN HERE” Jake yelled before taking a breath and continued looking for you weighed down by Neteyam being on his shoulder. Finally he spotted you a few feet away from where he found Neteyam. He checked for bullet wounds before throwing you on his shoulder, you were still passed out and bleeding from different scratches on your body.
Now at the healers hut Neteyam sits beside you blaming himself for you having gave been down there. You groan softy as you sit up, Neteyam was talking to you trying to ask how you felt. You knew he was taking you could see his mouth moving but you couldn’t hear it.
Everything was silent.
“I can’t hear you Nete” your voice trembles only for him to hear. Tears fall from your eyes you’ll never be able to hear your loved ones voices, never be able to listen to nature, or listen to the clan chanting and singing. Neteyam calls for his grandma as he hugs you
Mo’at examined you, sadly she couldn’t do anything so Jake brought Norm in
“It looks like her eardrums were ruptured due to the blast. Unfortunately hearing aids wouldn’t be affective due to the way a Na’vi ear is constructed. I’m sorry to say it guys but Y/N is permanently deaf” you could see Neteyams eyes widen and Mo’at praying with a sad look on her face. You knew you were probably never gonna get better
Over the next few months Kiri had helped you with lip reading as she was the only one with enough patience to say words over and over again.
“…The ikran flew up in the air, Neteyam almost fell off his first time flying” Kiri said speaking at a moderate pace so you could read her lips without any chance of confusion.
“You said that Neteyam almost fell off his Ikran his first time riding, right?” you said to see if you were right. Kiri nodded and hugged you out of excitement
Lo’ak blames himself for your situation so he try to help you in anyway he can wether it’s helping you with lip reading practice or If he finds anyone teasing you Lo’ak will beat them up.
Neteyam was helping you practice lip reading with Kiri while Lo’ak was outside feeding his Ikran.
“Yeah she’s a freak without hearing” a boy said to his friend gaining Lo’aks attention
“What did you say” Lo’aks voice was dark as he walked over to boy. The boy gets up in his face “ I said that Y/N is a freak” Lo’ak punches him “She is much better person than you are so I would suggest you shut your mouth before you get punched again asshole” the boy and his friends flee. Jake watched the entire situation but kept quiet, he was proud of his son for defending you.
Neteyam was your best friend out of the entire group so he comforted you during these times
Neteyam was the first person to try and talk to you after what happened. You hadn’t left the hut in days. Neteyam couldn’t bear seeing you like this so he sat down next you he had something Norm called a chalkboard. He wrote down what he wanted to say but quickly understood you didn’t want to talk, so Neteyam wrapped his arms around you as you started to cry. He patted your back and hummed, while you couldn’t hear his voice you could feel the vibrations coming from his chest it felt comforting to you like something a mother would do with their child
Tuk was too young understand how you felt but she still tried to cheer you up and make you smile
Tuk grabbed your arm and lead you outside to show you the flowers she had collected while out in the forest
“Y/N do you like the purple or pink flowers better” Tuk said with excitement she looked into your eyes happily “I like the purple flowers Tuk” she smiled and quickly ran all over grabbing every purple flower in sight before making it into a crowd. “Lean your head down Y/N” you smiled and complied as Tuk set the crown on your head before running off to get more flowers
Neytiri helped with keeping you in the loop and with integrating you into social situations. She wasn’t going to let you isolate yourself due to your disability.
Neytiri and Mo’at were working were working on baskets with some of the other women in the tribe they all gossiped and used this time as a way to update their friends on their lives. Neytiri had noticed you being quiet. Neytiri tapped your shoulder grabbing your attention “If you want to leave the basket so can talk it’s ok” she knew you couldn’t concentrate on the basket and read lips at the same time. You smiled and thanked her quietly. You laughed at some of the comments made by the other women.
Jake helped you with the frustration and anger that came with your new hearing impairment. he knew how it felt when something essential to everyday life is gone. He also knew that those first few days were the worst.
Jake sat down next to you, it had been been three days since the attack. You had kept to yourself for most of the time except for when Mo’at changed your bandages. He handed you a piece of paper with writing in Na’vi “you’re angry aren’t you” he wrote, you nod “I blame myself, I knew I should’ve never been down there in the first place” your voice was a quiet whisper. Jake wrapped his arm around you and kissed your head, you were basically another daughter to him.
With time the voices in your head quieted as you learned how to fit in again. You were so grateful for having the sullies in your life right now
Part 2: hearing the unheard
@inutheangel finally finished hope you like it and let me know what you think. I was thinking of making a part two were the reader goes with the sullies to the metkayina clan.

— HOMESICK
ft. isagi yoichi ; itoshi rin ; nagi seishiro ; bachira meguru ; chigiri hyōma ; itoshi sae
summary: them picking you up after a trip
note: i’d like to be everyone’s weekly teeth rotting fluff provider but then i remembered i dont have it in me to serve content every week LMFAO i lack prompts besties
Tumblr media Tumblr media
⚘ ISAGI YOICHI
ㅤㅤhas a relatively normal reaction as he sees you approaching him, but is actually trying his best not to freak out. he smiles at you softly as if he didn’t almost explode from all the excitement. once you’re in the car, he doesn’t let go of your hand the entire trip home. can’t stop staring at you too (a huge simp, good for you) because it’s been a while since he last saw you in person and it’s still kind of surreal to him. hmm, what was that? hands on the wheels, eyes on the road? yoichi, seriously, pay attention oh my god. you better promise you’ve tried everything and that this really is the last resort. “kaiser is in the middle of the street.” oh? oh. oh shit. “i'll run him over.” i mean... you gotta do what you gotta do to snap him out of it, right? (no)
⚘ ITOSHI RIN
ㅤㅤhe’s definitely in a sour mood. seething. most likely scared every single person who passed by him. the fact that he’s rapidly gaining fame doesn’t help at all (prayer circle for that one poor kid who only wanted to ask him for his autograph). he’s leaning against the wall, looking super annoyed. the root of the problem? not the fact that he has to be there of course, more like why the hell haven't you arrived at the gate yet (calm down rin it’s only been like ten minutes lmao). misses you as hell but won’t tell? that rhymes. immediately wraps you in his coat as an excuse to hug you tightly. “t’s not that cold, rin.” refuses to let you go. he’s clinging onto you for dear life as if he’s finally found you after a lifetime. “i know. just a little longer.” his grip only tightens when he notices people looking at you two. gee, they’re just trying to get to the exit gate, stop blocking it smh.
⚘ NAGI SEISHIRO
ㅤㅤit’s almost comical how he suddenly turned into a lighthouse as soon as he spotted you. people are putting on their sunglasses indoors, someone help. mandatory bear hug (but there’s a 50% chance that you’ll both fall to the ground because he can be clumsy like that). “that was so cringe.” “you love it, though.” “i love you.” ugh sappy. if somehow you survived that acrobatic act, he’ll bend his 190cm ass after putting you down so you can kiss the top of his head! if you don’t, well, he's not gonna stand up any time soon because it’s “comfy” and definitely not because getting up is a hassle. gets super chatty all the way home. “did you know shidou decked rin again today?” “barou planted his face on the ground yesterday, king who?” “i told choki to watch the food in the oven btw.” says it in the most casual manner; you can’t tell if he’s joking or not. “mhm. wait WHAT?”
⚘ BACHIRA MEGURU
ㅤㅤa pinball. will not hesitate to break through a crowd, bumping into everyone and everything. should be classified as a hazard to society. no jk. but he did almost tackle a kid when he was running towards you. has his arms wide open and ready to tackle you too embrace you. “you’re back! welcome home!” “i’m home!” “welcome home!” “i’m home!” don’t you have anything else to say besides that lmfao (it really went on for a solid five minutes). falls asleep on your lap in the car since he already spent all his energy on that whole “embodying a golden retriever” thing back there. looks so peaceful and angelic like that. also sleep-talks. “y’re hmm”. you didn’t expect him to remain this quiet but it’s the best nap he’s had in a while so uhh “karaoke night?” karaoke night he said. good luck to your poor neighbors tonight.
⚘ CHIGIRI HYŌMA
ㅤㅤladies and gentlemen, him. a runway model. is he picking someone up or is he going somewhere? with looks like that, no one will ever know. forget the elegant saunter; the moment he saw you, he full on sprinted. the type that brings you flowers and your favorite snacks. seems like someone who knows what he’s doing right? but when you pat his head in response to his warm welcome, he short-circuited because you just stole his line. “i’ve missed you.” immediately softens and melts in your embrace. you think it’s all calm and that until his sister arrives out of nowhere, calling out both of your names and the next thing you know, she’s taking pictures of you as if this is your graduation day. “lookie over here, you two!” you’ve never seen someone speedrunning five stages of grief in record time.
⚘ ITOSHI SAE
ㅤㅤmans turning the airport into a red carpet premiere smh; cameras flashing everywhere, people eager to ask him questions, etc. he’s learning that looking down on his phone isn’t a good enough disguise, and that his bored face isn’t scary enough to fend off his fans. oh finally, he thought as he spotted you amidst the crowd. “over here, sae!” “oh my, it’s itoshi sae!” but he has his gaze fixated on you and only you. don’t worry, of course he’ll notice if you grow uncomfortable with all the attention and will immediately wrap his arm around your figure. !! breaking news: itoshi sae quits the world of football and is now becoming a personal bodyguard. navigates through the crowd while mumbling “fall under my spell.” boy what they’re not shidou (narrator: they did, in fact, fell under his spell). “give me your number!” uhh? “move in with me!” wow it’s not your sae, huh? it’s everyone’s sae.

A/N: I included this as a regular part because it’s important to the storyline, also…y’all might not like how this ends but please just have faith in me I know exactly where this story is going and how it’s gonna end✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“These…are for you.” “Oh Eddie these are so pretty thank you…uh please come in while I put these in a vase.” “You’re so kind…uhm so…how was your day?” “It was good I finally got the box of Halloween stuff down from the attic.” “I told you’d I’d help you get it…all you had to do was wait for me.” “You know I don’t have the patience for that…how was your day?” “It was fine…Henderson’s mom’s minivan is a fucking nightmare to work on but I got it done.” “I swear she just messes with stuff to make it stop running just so she can come and see you.” “You’re so delusional…you ready?” “Yeah…let me grab my purse and we can go.” “Now before you say anything…I talked Rick into letting me borrow his car…figured your first date back on the town deserved something better than my run down van.” “Oh don’t be silly Eddie I love that van…uhm…Did you clean it?” “Oh course I did….as if I’d let you sit on anything that belongs to Rick without bleaching it first.”
“Why are you looking at me like that?” “I haven’t seen you this dressed up since your wedding day…is that a bobby-pin in your hair?” “You’re so annoying…I just wanted to look nice…and yeah they keep my hair from falling out of the bun…” “sorry..you look good Eddie that’s all I’m trying to say.” “Thank you…you look nice too…I always like when you wear that shade of green…it makes your eyes stand out.” “So…what happens now? After the obligatory complements?” “We just talk you weirdo.” “Okay…uhm…oh do you remember when you knocked on my door for the first time when we were like eleven to ask me if I wanted to play?” “Yeah…you practically threw yourself off your steps and into my arms you were so excited.” “I just was so happy to finally have a friend…who would’ve thought we’d still be friends after all these years? It’s crazy right? Friends don’t normally last this long…we haven’t even had a real fight before.” “Uh excuse me? Yes we have.” “Don’t start.” “Don’t start? Why? Because you still know that I’m right and you refuse to admit it?” “You’re not right…you’re extremely wrong and I’ve proven it to you time and time again.” “He wasn’t the first kill because we don’t know if he was dead by the time she actually died.” “Of course he was dead! They gutted him from the back! She was alive way after he died.” “You’re just so wrong because it takes a long time for someone to bleed out like that…he was totally still alive when she was dying.” “I know you want to believe that she was the first death in Scream but she just wasn’t…she watches her boyfriend get killed that’s why she starts to freak the fuck out!” “No she freaks out because a killer is threatening her on the phone and she just watched her boyfriend get stabbed….not die.” “Edward James Munson you know damn well he was dead!” “Shhhh! This is a fancy ass establishment you can’t go shouting about dead people.” “I need another glass of wine…”
“What are we doing here?” “It wouldn’t be an outing for us if we didn’t make a pit stop at some swings…” “will you push me?” “Aren’t you too old to need me to push you?” “I don’t need you to push me Eddie…I just like it when you do.” “fine…so…how’s it going so far? Feel like you could do this again?” “I’d give it an eight out of ten…and yeah I think so…it’s not as scary as I thought it was going to be.” “You thought a date with me was going to be scary?” “I just…I was nervous.” “Why? It’s just me…nothing to be nervous about.” “That’s true…what about you? Could you do this again?” “Oh yeah…I could totally do this again…maybe not the swings though..that’s just an us thing.” “Damn right it is…I better not hear about you taking anyone else to the park besides me or I’ll be upset.” “You’re so dramatic after a few glasses of wine.” “You love it though.” “Yeah…I do.”
“Ah here we are…home sweet home…mind if I come inside?” “That’s so bold of you to ask on a first date Edward.” “I’ll pour you some more wine….” “Okay you can come in then….” “Red or white?” “White please…I had a really good time tonight…thank you.” “You’re welcome..I’m glad you had a good time…I enjoyed it as well…what? Why…why are you looking at me like that?” “Are…uhm…are you…are you in love with me?” “What? Why…why would you…uhm…I..uh-” “oh god-” “No no no don’t…don’t walk away…I just wasn’t…why did you ask me that?” “Just forget it…I’m sorry…it’s the wine…I’m not making sense…I’m so sorry I shouldn’t have-” “yes.” “Yes?…yes what?” “I’m in love with you.” “No you’re not.” “Yes…yes I am.” “No you’re not…you would’ve told me…you…you would’ve said something.” “I’m…saying something now…doesn’t that count?” “I…I don’t know…what to say.” “That’s okay.” “I can’t…I can’t do this Eddie I can’t…I-” “hey it’s okay…please don’t cry….” “I think.. I just uhm…I need some space…I’m gonna go-” “no no I’ll go..you stay here I’ll uhm go stay at Wayne’s…just…I’m sorry okay? I didn’t…I didn’t want to tell you like this….please know that I don’t expect anything in return I just…it’s out there now so…we have to deal with it.” “I can’t deal with it right now…” “and that’s fine…I’ll uh go to Wayne’s and…maybe I’ll come by tomorrow and…we can talk about it?” “I’ll call you.” “Okay…yeah that works too…uhm…goodnight?” “Goodnight…tell…tell Wayne I said…hello.” “Yeah I’ll uhm..I’ll do that.”

Talk to Me
Chapter 4
Tumblr media
Lucifer x Fem Fallen Angel Reader Word Count: 5.1k CW: Angst, trauma, trust building, slow burn, enemies to lovers(ish?), lies, curiosity Guess who is finally gonna talk to each otherrrr?
|Chapter 3|Chapter 4|Chapter 5 (Updated through Chapter 5)
As happy as you were to be back at the nice new hotel, with nice new rooms, and nice new… friends(?), that didn’t mean that there was still a lot that you were trying to get used to. A lot that still felt overwhelming.
You had gone to sleep that night feeling ready to take on getting to know the others in the hotel, even briefly said hi to a couple of them, Angel, Husk, Cherri, and Niffty. But the next morning you woke up in a panicked cold sweat, and the tightened feeling in your chest about being around sinners.
You stayed into your room for a couple days, only sneaking out to get food.
You spent much of that time moving between freaking out and trying to figure out what to do to help other sinners. You just wish you had someone to talk it out with.
As if to a sort of answer to your prayers, Charlie knocked on your door. You slowly opened the door before giving her a panicked hug. She held you close and stroked your hair.
“Charlie, I’m so sorry I have not left my room… I’ve been meaning… trying to… but… I’m still so overwhelmed… I know that no one here will cause me harm… but I can’t help but think…”
Charlie shushed you as she held you, “Hey, it’s ok. I’m not upset, don’t worry. I know that I am wanting to encourage you but also not push you too far… I’ve made that mistake before… what do you feel like you need from me?” You thought, you’d never been asked that before. You think you would usually be the one asking Emily that in the past.
“Well… talking helps…”
Charlie smiled and moved further into the room with you, closing the door, sat on your bed and patted next to her “Tell me what is on your mind.”
You went to go sit by her and sighed, “I… I don’t know… I guess the first thing is… other sinners scare me… I don’t know what to do.”
Charlie thought, “Well… other sinners can be scary, but they can also be nice too. You never know what it is that made someone come to hell. I’ve always had the thought that sinners might not always be bad people.”
You gave Charlie a confused look.
Charlie thought again, “Ok uhh… let’s take Angel Dust for example. He’s a porn star. Why do you think he became a porn star?”
You shrugged, “Because he was a pornstar on Earth?”
Charlie shook her head, “Not the case actually. What would you say if you knew he grew up on Earth in the Mafia, with no way to escape, and spent most of his energy protecting his little sister?”
“That’s… huh…well being in the Mafia is bad… but if he was trapped in it… and he was protecting his sister… then that’s good…”
“He also is protective of others here at the hotel,” Charlie added, “He is almost like an older brother to Niffty.”
You thought for a minute about this, “But… how did he end up here… as a porn star?”
Charlie shrugged, “Lots of people end up here and get pulled into the… errr rough culture of Hell. Somehow he found his way to Valentino, the Overlord of the Porn Industry, and they made a contract.”
“And the cycle continues all over again,” you realize.
“Exactly,” Charlie added.
“And he is back repeating the same mistakes, because that’s what he needed to do to survive on earth,” you perk up more.
“Yes,” Charlie adds with more excitement.
“And… if he is becoming more good at the hotel… or doing more good things… it’s because…”
“Because he has a community to help him learn that there is more outside of that place of survival. That he can have support that isn’t abusive. Support that is kind and helps him find what he wants without being evil.” Charlie added.
You felt like your brain exploded. People weren’t just bad to be bad, some people were bad because of the community around them. Your heart broke.
“Some people on earth…” you start to choke on some tears, looking at Charlie “Some people on earth… had no chance of being good in their lifetime, did they? Not because they didn’t want to, but because they did not know how? Because they were not in a life where they were able to be around good people? They were trying to be the best they could in a bad environment?”
Charlie nodded, “Exactly.”
Tears streamed down your face, his realization made you so sad and so angry. So it was not just that people chose to be good or bad? Was there a gray area in the middle?
Charlie rubbed your back as you cried. She was… surprised by your response. She would hoped it would click, but something about this made you so upset. Questioning things? She was intrigued at the thought that this was not something that was understood by all sinners, but she guessed that everyone was different in their understanding. Everyone on earth experienced such vastly different things, it was hard to consider any sort of “standard” to the human experience.
Your tears soon settled, and you continued to look onto the floor, “I want to understand more… I want to.. to hear people’s experiences more… see more of this in action. But how would I do that?”
Charlie thought, “You could… just offer people a space to talk! Like… just saying you will be there to listen? Maybe talk them through some ideas if they want that?”
You thought and nodded, “Ya… that might work, but how would I get people to want to talk to me?”
Charlie stood up and started to pace around the room as she thought, “Well… I could encourage it as part of the hotel curriculum. Maybe they can get out of other activities occasional if they talk with you. Ultimately, them talking to you would need to be for their benefit though. Not just for you learning… Hmm…” Charlie continued to pace.
“Well… I think I would have to promise not to share anything outside of that conversation with anyone,” you added.
“Right! Hmm… we might want to be careful with that though,” Charlie said, “I don’t want anyone to abuse that. Like say if someone told you about something where they want to harm someone else or the hotel? I think you wouldn’t be able to keep that secret.”
“Oh ya, good point,” that though made you a little nervous, but you had to be prepared for anything, “I would just have to tell people the rules at the beginning.”
“That sounds good.”
“Ok… I can work with that… I think I with want to brainstorm for a little while more before starting anything.”
“Totally!” Charlie perked, “It sounds like an amazing idea that we can run the idea past the others. But for this to work, it would help if you started to come out and interact with them some more, what do you say?” Charlie held out a hand.
You looked at her hand and smiled, you knew she was right. You took her hand and followed her downstairs.
You took the rest of the evening and the next few days getting to know Vaggie, Angel Dust, Husk, Niffty, Cherri, and Alastor more. Though Alastor didn’t share much about himself other than the general vibe that he was powerful and scary. But overall the others did not make you feel bad about needing some time to get used to Hell, many of them had died a long time ago but they all remembered it being hard, even though they all varied in how much they accepted their placement in Hell.
Several days later, Charlie brought up the idea of your “Talk Time” with the other members of the hotel, and they were given time to talk through their worries or concerns.
“How do you know you ain’t gonna move to conversation to what you want? How do you know you ain’t gonna judge us?” Angel asked.
“Hmm… everything in that room is about you and your story. I want to learn more and support you guys. And if you ever do feel that way, you can tell me. I’m not forcing anyone to be there, I’m there if you want to talk some someone,” you responded, “Anything you tell me, I’m gonna do everything I can to meet it with curiously, not judgement. I’m not gonna be perfect, but I wanna try.”
“How do you know you are actually going to keep our secrets? What stops you from just blabbing them to all of Hell?” Husk asked.
You thought about that, and you looked at Charlie and Vaggie. You knew there was a certain type of silence spell that was sometimes used in Heaven, mostly for people on themselves so that they would not accidental spill secrets. It’s a spell that Adam should have used when it came to the exterminations, but his pride got in the way and he didn’t. You were curious if either of them had magic like that.
“Do either of you have magic that can cause a sort of silencing spell? One that could force me to not be able to talk about certain things?”
Charlie and Vaggie looked at each other and thought. Alastor in the corner of the room gripped his cane, thinking of the magic threads that kept his own secrets locked away.
Vaggie thought of the same angelic seal that you had, she found it cruel though, but she understood the reason here. Part of her was curious about how you had thought of that so quickly, but now was not the time to dive into that.
“I do”, she said “It binds you to keeping secrets within specified parameters, like if it were to be like “You are are bound to keep the secrets of Charolette Morningstar, so long as keeping the secret would not cause harm to others.”” Or something.”
You nodded, that sounded right, “Can we try it so everyone can see?”
Vaggie nodded and began the spell, saying it the same thing she had said before, then she prompted Charlie to tell you a small secret. Charlie came up and in your ear whispered “I accidentally used Vaggie’s toothbrush one time before we were officially dating and I’ve never told her and I feel really bad about it.” You wanted to laugh because it was such an innocent secret, but your face remained neutral.
You turned to the group and attempted to say the secret but all that happened was your lips sealed shut and a red X marked over your mouth, silencing you for a moment before disappearing. You tried it again, and the red X appeared. You looked out to the group.
“Any further questions or concerns?” You ask the group.
“Will that happen for anything we tell you?” Niffty added.
Vaggie answered, “I can set it just so it happens involving information said when you are in her room, this will also incentivize you all to only talk to her about heavy stuff during times you meet with her, so that you aren’t just randomly coming up to her. Got it?”
The rest of the group nodded.
“How long will we have to talk to ya for?” Angel asked.
You shrugged, “As long as you like I guess, but I might have to cap it at some point. We will workshop it and see how it goes. I’m gonna start offering it a couple days a week and then I’ll increase time as I feel ready for it.”
That seemed to be the end of the questions for now. There was always room for more questions.
You started your open office hours the next day, your door was open and you were just hanging out in your room. No one came in for most of the day, but closer to the end of the day, Angel came walking in.
“Hey,” Angel said in the doorway.
“Hey! You wanna come chat?” You ask.
“Not really, but yes… but Husk said it might be a good idea, let’s get Vaggie going with that silence spell though,” Angel added. You called for Vaggie, she set the spell, and then you and Angel were alone to talk.
Angel sat in silence for a few minutes, thinking. He sighed, “I talk ‘bout my shit all the time but I don’t know where ta even start ‘ere” he buries his face in his hands.
You thought a moment, “How about today? Is there something that is bothering you today? You said Husk told you to come up here.”
Angel sighed, “Alright, buckle in toots.” Angel started by telling you about his boss, Valentino, being an absolute monster to him. You asked some questions and Angel went back into the details of how he ended up on the end of Val’s chain. How he had arrived to Hell much like you did, scared and alone, although he figured some of his family was down here, but he didn’t want much to do with them. There was no hotel then, and all he knew was finding someone in power to protect him.
He got a job in Val’s company since he knew sex and acting were things he could do, and he quickly gained the favor of Val. But Val didn’t just like him, he was obsessed with him, Angel had to live with him and be on call basically 24/7 for shoots and for Val personally. Protection didn’t matter if it wasn’t protecting him from the biggest threat in his life, which had become Val himself. But he was trapped, he learned about the hotel and got set up over here. The hotel was the only remotely safe place he had now and he was thankful for that. He then went quiet.
“I understan-“ you started to say.
“No! No you don’t! No one does. Don’t hit me with that crap, I get it all the time,” Angel snarked as he crossed his arms.
You wanted to snap at him but you took a breath, remembering this isn’t about you, that’s probably his pain.
“You’re right,” you said. He looked up at you with surprise and confusion, “You’re totally right, I’m sorry, I don’t… I guess I mean… I see your pain, I hear your suffering… I see you Angel. You just wanna be safe.”
He stared at you a moment and nodded “Ya.”
“And you want to have people around you that will want to protect you?”
He nodded again, his arms going more slack, “Ya.”
“And if you took part in the battle with Heaven, I’m gonna guess you have found that here, and you wanna protect them, too. Right?”
He nods, fighting the tears that welled in his eyes, “Heh… I’m glad you got that silence spell, wouldn’t want everyone to know how mushy I am.”
You shrugged “I think many of them would appreciate it, but that is up to you.”
Angel smiled “So uhh… let me know when ya office is open again. Kay? This… didn’t completely suck.”
You smiled, and walked him to the door. Once he left you closed the door and sighed, that was a lot, but it was good. You didn’t have long before there was a knock on your door.
You opened the door to see a short young man with short slicked back blond hair, a sharp smile, and button up and a suit vest, there were red dots on his checks like Charlie, did she have a brother?
“Hiya! Haha, I apologize for the intrusion, I hope I didn’t startle you. I was in the neighbor and came to say hi to Charlie and she said you were taking times for people to come and just chat with you so I thought I would came say hi!”
“Oh! Well wonderful, and… you are?” You asked.
“I’m sorry, weird are my manners, I’m Lucifer!” he said sticking out a hand.
You were suddenly full of fear and took a step back, “Lucifer…” You felt yourself trip and start to fall backwards. You anticipate hitting the floor but you stop just short as Lucifer catches you, a worried look on his face. Time feels like it slows for a second as he holds you up and you look at each other. He quickly sets you down and takes a step back.
“I’m so sorry… I really didn’t mean to scare you… I promise I just wanted to come say hi. Connect the face to the name. (Y/fn), right? Charlie mentioned you. And I wanted to give you this!” He pulls out a simple rubber duck.
You were just looking him up and down, trying to make sense of the image in front of you, and then the rubber duck. This soft and small person was the terrifying Lucifer? Why did he have a rubber duck?
“Yes that’s me. Wait. You are Lucifer?” You asked.
Lucifer nodded, “The one and only!”
You blinked and thought more, “But… you’re not scary? Do you make yourself not look scary?”
Lucifer looked at himself and chuckled “No this is how I normally look, I actually have to try to make myself look scary.”
“So you can be scary?”
Lucifer shrugged, “Yes, but I don’t like to. I’m guessing they still draw me as big and muscular with horns and fire and all of that on Earth?”
You thought back to the few depictions you had seen of Lucifer around Heaven, each one a more terrifying depiction from the last, and you made a face. “You could say that, lots of goat and snake like monsters.”
Lucifer rolled his eyes, “Eh. Of course. I can look like elements of that, but half the time I swear they are just drawing Satan and slapping my name on him. He’s like a big goat man, Sin or Wrath. He runs the Wrath ring downstairs.” He set down the rubber duck on the table next to the door. “Anyways, I just wanted to thank you for joining Charlie’s hotel. We weren’t sure we were going to get more after the extermination news. How did you find us?”
Damn you needed a good excuse, what was the one you had told Charlie the other day? You started to stand back up as you responded. “I uhh… heard something about it from the group of sinners that… beat me up. Not in a positive way but I thought I would check it out. I’m glad I did, Charlie has been so kind to me.”
Lucifer frowned, “I’m sorry to hear about your attack but I’m glad that you have found comfort with my daughter. She has such a gentle heart.” He smiled as he thought about his daughter.
You watched his eyes shine as he talked about her. Seriously, who was this guy? This gentle and kind person was the most hated being in all of creation? This was the man whose name was akin to a cursed word in the heavens. The longer you were here, the less sense things were making, and the more angry it made you.
Lucifer looked at you and noticed the grimace on your face, “Uhh… everything ok?”
You snapped back to the present and realized how twisted in frustration your face was. “Uhh… ya! I just… still have some pain I’m dealing with. Nothing to worry about.”
Lucifer looked at the light wrap on your arm and opposing leg, no longer full casts but a little wrap, “May I take a look?”
You hesitated, and he sensed it. “I wouldn’t hurt you. Some angels just have healing powers, I just want to see if your bones settled the right way.”
You paused, and then offered your arm “No cuts please.”
Lucifer nodded, “No cuts.” He walked forward and took your forearm in both hands and closed his eyes, focusing in on your bones. He could sense that this one was healing correctly, but he let out some power and finished up the healing process.
You were so nervous to be this close to him, but something about his soft touch was so disarming. He was warm and gentle. The light startled you, but then a wave of relief came over your arm. His hands slipped away and you tried moving it. It was good as new! You beamed a smile looking at it.
Lucifer smiled seeing you ease up a little around him. “Want me to do your leg next?” You looked at him and nodded.
You sat on the bed, and he knelt down to take your lower leg in his hands, closing his eyes again. This time you looked more over his features as he turned into your injury, your curiosity over him was just eating at you. And even more so… they did he almost feel familiar?
“Hmm,” he hummed. “Were you walking on this injury?”
“Uhh… ya, why?” You responded. “Why? Is something wrong?”
He looked up at you, “The bones are not healing correctly in line, that is probably what is causing more pain here.”
“That’s not good… is there a way to fix it?”
“There is… but I would have to separate the bones again to be able to heal them back in the right place. You wouldn’t feel pain but it’s not pleasant. It will feel better after that though,” he said looking into your eyes.
You grabbed at your shoulder, remembering the break of your wing. You swallowed hard, could you trust the devil?
You nodded.
He nodded, set his hands in place, and prepared you, his magic beginning to glow again. Before you knew it, there was a quick pop and then a cooling sensation of healing again. You both exhaled and then smiled at each other.
You stood up and tested your leg, you could put your weight on it without pain again! You spun around and smiled.
Lucifer smiled again, warmth filling his heart as we felt like he was actually able to do something nice for you. Filling some sense of an unpaid debt of some kind.
“I’m glad you are feeling better, anything else? I noticed you grabbed your shoulder, I could-“
“No!” You stopped your dance and held your shoulder away. Lucifer pulled back with a look of worry on his face.
“I mean… I’m sorry, it’s nothing. An old injury from… my old life. Nothing something that is actually there. Just something I think of,” you looked over the worry and pain on his face. “Shit… I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to yell…”
“No it’s ok, haha, I get it, old pains from a past life and all…” Lucifer thought off, thinking of the fall.
You looked over his face again, there was something so deep about his pain, it intrigued you. It was funny how little you had known about pain as a concept just a month ago, but now, your hunger for learning about it was unmatched. You couldn’t understand what made people actually good until you realized that also made them bad, and pain and suffering seems to be a big factor. Looking at the harbinger of pain and suffering himself, it made you so curious as to what started it all.
“Hey,” you said, Lucifer looked up at you. “My… my talk times are available for everyone at the hotel, so… that includes you. If you ever want to talk about things that have happened to you… my door is open. Just… maybe not today. My last appointment was uhh… a lot. With-“ you tried to say Angel’s name but your mouth sealed shut and a red X appeared over your mouth.
Lucifer was startled by the angelic red X that he remembers seeing on the elders sometimes in the past. After a moment the X disappeared
“Sorry, silence spell. I forgot I can’t even say the name of who I last talked to. Vaggie helped me set it up,” you rubbed your mouth, that feeling was not pleasant.
“Oh interesting, so you have parameters set to not share what people let you during the talk time?” Lucifer asked. You nodded. He thought and then smiled.
“Alright, I’ll come talk to you. I’ll see you in a few days then.” He gave you a wink and then wished you goodbye before teleporting downstairs to grab his hat and coat, and saying goodbye to the others before teleporting back home.
You sighed and flopped on your bed after Lucifer left. You had met the King of Hell and lived to tell the tale. He was so unlike anything you expected. You were still a little wary of him, but the way you didn’t sense a single bit of malice or trickery about him. Just… kindness and…sadness… lots of sadness… He felt so much like Charlie, but also… not.
You thought again to the look in his eyes, the gentle way he talked about healed you, especially your leg, he could have just snapped it and healed it, but he took the time to talk you through it. You actually thought to keep that in might when talking to people, you could probably approach conversations like that.
But beyond that, he, like his daughter, respected when you said no to him looking at your shoulder. He wasn’t just searching to make you “perfect” he wanted you to have a say in things. That felt so unusual, that was something you had very little of in Heaven.
Then there was the biggest part that bothered you. Why did he feel familiar? Vaggie you could understand, she could have been a face in the crowd of Heaven that you just didn’t pick up on and she slipped your memory in the years since she was kicked from the service of Heaven. But how could Lucifer feel familiar? He fell before you were created. Had you met at another point still?
You remembered the day you came into being, your eyes opening and Sera welcoming you, explaining your role, and being introduced to Emily.
Emily… your heart hurt to think of her, your closest… friend. Tears welled up in your eyes. How you missed her. You wished she was ok. You wondering if she thought of you. If she still suffered. Or if she had just forgotten you at this point and moved on.
You shook your head, no, Emily was not like that, she wouldn’t forget you after almost 10,000 years of friendship.
You sighed and rolled onto your side, your eyes caught sight of the rubber duck Lucifer had left. You smiled. What a curious thing, and what a curious man. You floated the duck over to you and looked at it as you laid there. You realized you never thanked him for the gift. How rude of you. You would have to remedy that next time you talked with him. You smiled at the thought as you drifted to sleep.
—————————————————————-------------------------------
Lucifer returned home and flopped on his bed again, a swirl of emotions mixed up in his stomach. On the one hand he was grateful for another pleasant visit to the hotel, and a chance to meet and interact with you. On the other… there were some things he just couldn’t wrap his head around.
On the more positive end, he was glad the you seemed like a kind sinner, which also confused him, because kind and sinner should not mix, but he also didn’t even know what the threshold was for people ending up here anyway. He knew from getting to know the other sinners at that hotel that some people just had a rough exterior, but you didn’t even seem to have that. Your biggest thing seemed to be that you were very afraid of him.
He had hoped that by the end of your conversation he had put you a little more at ease. He thought that maybe you had grown up in a cult or something, that would explain many of the behaviors. Growing up with an idea of a deity that should be feared above all else or else the “monstrous devil” would steal their soul.
Pfft. As if. He had better things to do than deal in the trading of mortal souls.
Anyways, ya that was probably the case. He was just glad that you were feeling better about your limbs and you offering some of your time to talk with him. He almost found it amusing to think about talking to a mortal about his problems. As if they could even comprehend it. But it would be nice to talk to some things outside of Charlie and his rubber ducks, although the ducks were great listeners.
The things that bothered him about his visit were… interesting. The more simple part was your reaction to him looking at your shoulder. He understood the idea of an old injury but… that reaction didn’t pan out with an old one, but a new one. A traumatizing one. You hadn’t been here for long, so what could have happened to have caused such a reaction? One that you didn’t want touched or healed if it was as fresh as your other injuries? Or was it even fresher? Had a rogue exorcist gotten to you? There was no way of telling. Maybe once he had built up more trust with her, he would have more of a chance to get that question answered.
Then there was the bigger reason for his discomfort, why did you feel familiar to him, and why did you feel off to him? He had only recently started interacting with sinners and you were new to Hell, so that couldn’t be it. Maybe he had seen you in the past when he had taken a trip to Earth before with… ugh, maybe? That also seemed like a stretch. Maybe you just reminded him from someone, that was probably it. Someone from a long time ago maybe?
Curse this depression brain fog, it made trying to remember anything impossible. What was your name again? (Y/fn)? That didn’t ring any bells, so you must have just reminded him of someone, it was gonna drive him crazy.
Oh well, for now that would just have to remain a mystery for another day.

Maybe Jake webber with a poc reader ? i haven’t seen any :) 🫶🏾
Cooking
Tumblr media
*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚
Summary: In which Jake's girlfriend teaches him how to really cook
Pairing: Jake x Latina!reader
Warnings: None!
Word Count: 706
A/N: Thank you for the request! The race wasn't specified here, so I choose Latinx because I'm Hispanic :)
*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚✧*:・゚*:・゚
Jake was very excited for multiple reasons. One, you would be joining him for a cooking stream, and two, he would finally taste the cooking you had bragged about for so long. You two had only been dating for about three months, and he was very excited to taste your food. Jake loved trying all sorts of foods from different places, and since you were Hispanic, you had promised him you would make some of the dishes you had grown up on. 
“Hello!” he boomed, ever the loud talker. “Today I am here with my lovely girlfriend, Y/N,” Jake paused to wrap an arm around your waist and kiss you. “And she’s going to teach us how to make Arroz…con, con…Guandules?” he looked to you for approval, stumbling a bit over the Spanish words.
You giggled and kissed his cheek. “Close enough.”
“Let’s get started!” he exclaimed. 
You and Jake bustled around the kitchen for a while, getting out ingredients and setting the water for the rice to boil. You would occasionally acknowledge the chat when they asked about your relationship with Jake. Even though you were still rather new to Jake and his whole career, you loved his viewers. They were extremely kind to you and so far were so supportive of your relationship. 
“That looks like foreskin.” Jake commented as you dumped a can of kidney beans into a saucepan on the stove. 
“Oh my god, shut up,” You laughed. “We have to eat this, y’know.”
The stream exploded with laughing remarks and comments about how it wouldn’t be a Jake video with a foreskin joke. You brushed your curly hair out of your eyes and laughed again, grabbing a variety of peppers and spices. 
“Woah, babe. I’m a white man.” Jake said as you added sliced jalapenos with the seeds still attached into the beans. 
“This is the way my mom always used to make it.” You hummed fondly, kissing Jake as you stirred the food and added a variety of spices, to include cayenne pepper. 
“You’re probably gonna give me diarrhea.” he retorted, but hugged you from behind nonetheless. 
You quickly combined the rice and beans and made two plates of food, handing Jake his to show to his stream. “Ta da!”
“Well, this looks amazing and Mama Bear is hungry. Should we do a taste test?” he asked the stream. 
The chat was full of confirming remarks, both because they wanted to know how your cooking was, and because they were very eager to see Jake’s reaction after the amount of spice that had been added to the food. Being used to eating such spicy food, you really didn’t understand why everyone was freaking out, but then again, flavors and spice were a big part of Hispanic culture. 
You both shoveled a bite of your food into your mouths, chewing thoughtfully. You swallowed with a huge smile on your face, quite proud of your dish. However, when you looked over at Jake, he did not appear to be having a great time. 
“Holy fuck,” Jake panted after he painstakingly swallowed. “That’s so fucking spicy. What did you put in that?”
“You saw what I put in there.” You laughed, getting a good laugh out of his reaction. 
Jake threw open the refrigerator door and grabbed the gallon of milk, immediately taking a swig from the carton. “Oh my god.”
“It’s not that spicy!” You and the stream were laughing at his predicament. 
Finally, your boyfriend set the milk down, fanning his tongue. “My stomach is burning.”
“Poor baby,” You giggled, kissing his pouty lips. “So, did you like it?”
“It would be amazing…if it didn’t taste like I was eating out of Satan’s asshole.” Jake groaned, relishing in your touch. 
“Chat, should he take another bite?” You asked. 
“NO, he should not,” Jake picked you up and spun you around. “Thank you for the food, baby. I love you.”
The chat went absolutely wild over all your cute moments with Jake, and you knew the clips would be all over social media later, but for now, you just enjoyed the soft moment between you two and the utter love that came from sharing your culture with the man you loved.

Mitsuya was very fun to write, I hope you likey :3
RAAH I LOVE TALKING TO YOU TOO, YOURE GONNA MAKE ME SOB WITH YOUR SWEETNESS💖💖💖
VIRTUALLY TACKLING AND HUGGING YOU
Tumblr media
___________________________________________
Takemitchy x Mitsuya (interpret as you wish)
Lee: Takemitchy
Ler: Mitsuya
Warnings: Tickles!
___________________________________________
It was finally time, Takemitchy could explode from excitement. Today Mitsuya would take his meassurements for his very own Toman uniform!
“Okay, now stay still and stretch your arms out a bit” 
“Hai!!!” Okay maybe he was a bit too excited, but it’s not everyday one becomes an official member of one of the lost well known gangs.
Mitsuya rolled his eyes fondly as he got to work, taking out the tape meassurer and bringing it across Takemitchy’s waist. 
“Eep?!” a squeaked escaped the blondie, his body almost tumbling. 
“Hmm? Something wrong?” Mitsuya asked with his usual eerily calm nature, but this wasn’t the first time he’s gotten such a reaction. Still, he played it cool for now.
“No!! Not at all. Sorry, continue!” with newfound determination, Takemitchy vowed himself to stay as still as a rock. Despite how much it might tickle… maybe he didn’t think it through.
Everytime Mitsuya’s fingers would stray a wee bit too close to one of his sensitive spots, he’d squirm and giggle like a kid. Careless fingers caressing his side, poking under his arm, brushing down his spine. His defense almost faltered when he felt a sharp squeeze at his hip. 
“WAH?! M-Mitsuya!” that one was definitely on purpose, the ‘younger’ boy thought as he cried out to his senior. 
“What? Don’t tell me you're ticklish” the older boy gave a playful smirk, making Takemitchy’s face flush.
“Maybe a bit…” the blonde mumbled, avoiding eye contact.
“Just a bit? Seems pretty bad to me” Mitsuya teased as he quickly scribbled up and down Mitchy’s sides. As an older brother, and just a calm menace in general, he was practically a pro when it came to tickling.
“Huh?! Wait! Wahahait! Nohoho! Mitsuya!!” Takemitchy shrieked, arms trying to desperately protect his sides. Sometimes he’d switch to try batting Mitsuya’s hands away. Either way, it wasn’t that hard for the older teen to maneuver around him. Evil fingers latching onto the blonde’s ribs and vibrating vigorously. 
“EEK! STOAHAHAP!” Takemitchy all but screeched, his brain going haywire with how overwhelmingly flustered he felt.
“Does Mikey know about this? I’m sure he’d be pleased to learn about this weakness of yours~���
The way Takemitchy’s face dropped in pure fear was absolutely golden. It took some willpower on Mitsuya's part to not laugh at him. Oh how fun it always was to mess with the new kid. 
“PLEHEHEASE DON’T TELL HIM- GYAH! MITSUYA, NOT THEHEHERE!” poor Takemitchy’s knees gave out as Mitsuya found the soft spot at his belly. His fingers kneading at the sides, scribbling along his lower belly, even poking at his navel that would never fail to make him squeal each time. 
“Pff- Okay, fine you crybaby” Mitsuya held back a snicker as his tickly fingers stopped, watching in amusement as Takemitchy curled up on the floor like a kitten. Gasping for air as if he went through the most intense workout of his lifetime. 
Once the blonde caught his breath, he looked up at Mitsuya with pleading eyes “For the love of God, please don’t tell Mikey”
Before Mitsuya could respond, they heard the click of a phone, prompting both of them to look for the source of the sound. 
“Too late, CryMitchy~” Mikey was peeking through the door, phone in hand, having recorded the whole ordeal. He stuck his tongue out before running off, Takemitchy’s laughter echoing from his phone.
“Wait! Mikey, come back!” The blonde desperately went after his leader, not like he’d ever catch up to him but hey, one can dream. 
Mitsuya smiled fondly to himself and the silliness of the situation, that was until he realized, he never finished getting his measurements… Oh well, maybe next time. Hopefully with less distractions. Well… he wasn’t making any promises. 
___________________________________________
Been looping Mitsuya's character song while writing this, his voice is very 👌

PAPER RINGS part. 12
THIS IS THE FINALE. Final chapter, no more Daisy. So goodbye, Daisy Pinecone, I loved you a lot. Goodbye, Haymitch Abernathy, I wish you were mine. And Goodbye to you, thanks to the kind comments and likes!
MASTERLIST
Tumblr media
12. I think I’m gonna marry you
SIX MONTHS LATER
You wake up in the best way you know, with sloppy kisses on your neck and a hand between your legs, the other on your breasts. Unfortunately, today of all days you can’t indulge yourself in such fun activities. You have a little appointment today. 
An appointment in white.
«You shouldn’t be here! Effie will be here in a minute.» You scold your partner, since you know what he wants. Oh, you shouldn’t have. You should already be up, preparing yourself for the big day, curling your hair in a complicated braid and all the other things you usually adore to do. 
But his eyes are so blue…
«I just couldn’t sleep without you tonight.» He whispers in your ear and you melt at his hot breath. He is so sexy. When did he become so hot? Is it weird that you feel more attracted to him than ever? One thing is true, you are going to be very lucky if you are always going to feel this way. And his scent, that wood and tobacco even though he doesn’t smoke, like a smell he got attached to him since he was a teenager. 
There was also alcohol in that scent before, but not anymore. He is sober, not always in the easiest way, but he managed to stay sober so far. You are so freaking proud of him, he is the strongest man you know.
«I know, me neither…» You tried. You really tried, but you couldn’t sleep. You felt excited and scared, and you kept thinking you only wanted to be in his arms. That is a little concerning, the small amount of time that was needed to make you feel like the world was exploding without him. 
When you were about to go to your house, your real house and not your mom’s, you saw him sneaking from the window.
This is a signal. A signal that everything is going to be okay, if you and your soon to be husband can’t stay away from each other. 
And also a signal you sometimes really behave like teenagers in love.
«But Effie is going to be here any minute and if he finds you here...» She will scold you two. Effie Trinket being allied to your mother was not in your bingo card for the year, but as soon as they heard the words “planned” and “wedding” they teamed up. Effie became big on district tradition, and part of it is that the night before the wedding the girl has to sleep in her mother’s house. Well, usually just because the girl lived there before and now you are living in sin, but for them it’s a detail, a tradition is a tradition and so you spent your night in your mom’s house, dresses in a white simple long nightgown and covered in lilium candidum, to symbolise innocence.
Haymitch laughed for half an hour when you told him they called you “Innocent”, the irony wasn’t lost on him.
«So you are saying I can’t stay in my bed.» He deadpans, and you shake your head, but you are so happy he is with you.
«This is not your bed, this is my mother’s house and you introduced yourself like a thief.» And it’s very hot, but you are not going to tell him that.
He only smirks, like every time he is going to say something that you wouldn’t approve. «It is only my bed when you are in it. And you are a thief. Only thing I stole was your virginity.»
«Haymitch!» You laugh, because he is very stupid sometimes. He has been a serious, shattered, sad person for twenty years, and now that everything seems calmer he is discovering himself as a funny man when he is in a good mood. The sky still has clouds sometimes. «And my heart.»
His gaze softens, a hand on your cheek again, the other playing with your hair. «Aren’t we sweet this morning?»
«It happens when you have to get married.» You still don’t think this is real. You are going to get married. You. Daisy Pinecone. Daisy Pinecone becomes Daisy Abernathy. You are very happy you are taking his name. You are keeping yours, of course, but it’s good to be an Abernathy now.
«In like six hours, babe, nobody is coming in now…» He starts to pepper kisses on your neck. Babe. You developed a taste for this word from his lips, it is tacky from other lips but when he pronounces those words it’s like music, especially if he traces caresses on your shoulders and neck. «Let me wake you properly.»
«Don’t even think about it, the bride has to go down now!» You try to interrupt him, but his hands are already on your butt again, and you feel so desired. He makes you feel powerful and beautiful.
«But I wanted to go down.» He deadpans, and you chuckle. A kid. He is a kid today, and if he is in this goofy mood now it’s because it’s a happy day for him too. He is happy because he is marrying you. What a crazy thought. 
«Haymitch… you really have to go. It’s crazy enough that we spent the night together!» You stroke his hair and he grins at you, because usually when you begin like this you end with a fist in his hair. 
Not today. You will be stronger.
«I don’t get why, we’ll spend the night together for the rest of our life.»
«But it's tradition.» You pout. «Me in my childhood’s bed, our cat with Katniss and you… going out with the men from the district.»
«Ugh, I’ll pass. I can’t stand those men. They are always complaining about their wives. Why the hell did you get married if you hate your wife?» This is another side of this man that you love. He is not afraid of being himself and if he hates someone he really hates someone. 
He is right about the men in the district, most of them treat their wives like shit. At twelve it’s common for women to take care of the house and men go to work outside when they can handle the money, and it’s not fun. Men don’t think what women do it’s a real job, they tend to harass them whenever they can and they generally think they are better. In adulthood men start to dislike women. They think women are shallow and less intelligent than them, and they don’t have a purpose anymore since they are not beautiful anymore. If they give them children, they are seen as an inconvenience and a burden. 
This is the life your mother didn’t want. She chose to be alone, and she made the right choice because now she is happy.
This is the life you didn’t want. You never dreamed of getting married with someone from Twelve because you had a lot of examples of good guys who became insufferable old men. But this is not the life you are going to live. First, because Haymitch is already an old man. And second, and most important, he is not like this. He cherishes you, he loves you and he proved it a lot of times.
«Maybe in twenty years you will complain about me too.» You joke. 
«In twenty years you will be a ravishing fourty woman and I’ll be a wreck. If I start complaining, finish me off.»
You laugh again, he is in a very good mood today, and you put a hand on his shoulder to get him closer.
«And what are you going to do with me once you have married me, Mr. Abernathy?» This is dangerous business, if you begin to flirt when you can’t make love to him. 
«The things I’ll do to you, Mrs. Abernathy.» The hunger in his eyes makes you blush even now. And you believe him, that man has a great fantasy when it comes to you.
«Miss Pinecone! At least for some hours.» You protest. 
«It’s too much. I want you mine now.» He bites you on your neck and you almost let out a moan. With your mother in the other room, that’s outrageous. But his teeth are lingering on your skin and what a girl gotta do? 
«I am yours. From head to toe. Every inch of my skin…» You whisper in his ear.
«I’ll kiss every bit of skin you have.» You believe him. He has already done it multiple times by now, each of them better than the previous one.
«Is that a promise, my love? We will always be as passionate as we are now?» You ask him, a bit more serious now. You really don’t want to lose that, or the jokeness you have. You know it’s a little shocking for everyone, but he makes you laugh. Really laugh. He is funny, he has a good sense of humour and you can’t help but chuckle when he wants to be hilarious.
Everyone told you that a married life is not easy, you tend to fall into a routine and you end up bored. It is better to be bored than to be constantly in danger, but if you could just avoid it you would be happier.
«Sweetheart, I have to tell myself I cannot eat you and fuck you and kiss you all day… I’m sure that won’t be a concern.» He wants you. He really wants you. He has been wanting you for two years now more or less, and yet you can’t believe it. You remember when you used to daydream about him, a less hot version of him if you have to be honest, because now he is sober, he gained strength thanks to Peeta’s exercises and he washes his hair more. 
«Really? You want to have me all the time?» You try to play it cool, but you fail miserably.
«You can’t even imagine…» The bite he gives you, though… that’s not fair. It reminds you of all the time he used his weapons against you. Or against a wall. 
«I think I can. Are we behaving like teenagers again?» You ask him, but he shakes his head and kisses your lips again.
«Let me be happy for a minute.»
Happy. You can see it in his smile, in his eyes, in his movements during the day. 
«I’m so proud I can make you happy.»
«Feeling mutual. Now, how much do you think we have until our actual teenagers come to our house to find me?» The fact that now you have actual children is scary, because sometimes you feel like a teenager yourself (although you are almost thirty, you have a job and you are about to get married), but in the last few months Katniss got closer to you and you always had a good relationship with Peeta. Lora is the one who got you worried the most, because you clearly remember the moment you thought you lost her, but she is getting better. When you asked her what job she dreamed about, she answered that she doesn’t dream about a job. You are fucking proud of her. Not your mood, because you actually dreamed of multiple jobs in your life, but the fact that she stated it is very good. She is starting to know what she wants.
«Katniss is slower but Peeta will be there any minute and Lora is living with you, but will come to me. But that doesn’t matter because Effie is probably already here, waiting for me to get up.» You kiss his cheek.
«And the fishes?»
«Don’t call them that! Finnick, Annie and Perla will be here in two hours. Perla will bring Cinna, of course.»
«Of course.» His tone is hilarious. He had always been a little jealous of Cinna, because Katniss adores him. He doesn’t understand that the girl loves him like a fun uncle, but she considers him as a father.
«You are still jealous of him and Katniss?» You taunt, but he just snorts, because heaven helps him if he has to name a feeling.
«No, why would I?»
«You jealous, jealous man. She is your daughter, you know?» You are all over him again, he is too cute when he is insecure.
«I have no idea what you are talking about, you crazy wife.»
«You have to go! Don’t even think about it… stop kissing me…» You try to sound convincing, but the moan you let out when he hits that particular spot under the ear exposes you. «Stop… maybe just five minutes.» He smiles like he just conquered the world.
«That’s my girl.» The room soon fills with giggles and kisses.
It’s more than five minutes. You are never sick of each other, but eventually even Haymitch realizes that it’s not ideal for him to be in your mother’s house doing some unholy things. You are sore and still giggling when he goes away, and you stand up from the bed before someone enters through the door. 
You watch yourself in the mirror. Your hair is messy and your eyes are tired, Effie is going to be very mad at you. And you don’t even want to start with the nightgown.
«Mother!» You half-yell, because she appears behind you in the mirror. It’s scary and you shouldn’t scare a victor.
It’s weird how you don’t even feel like you are a victor anymore, some days. You are so different from that Daisy, the Daisy who didn’t win the Hunger Games. And yet, sometimes you are still in the arena.
The therapist is helping a lot. You came back from Dr. Aurelius and now she is helping you to understand how it feels, about your choices and you are learning a lot about yourself. Haymitch is going to a therapist too, and so is Lora. You try to help each other in every way possible.
«Daughter! I’ll pretend I didn’t see Haymitch sneaking through the door.» She reaches out for you and she starts to unwrap your night braids. «So… I’m about to lose my daughter.»
Her voice is a little sad. This is not what she wanted for you, and you know it. She always dreamed about a big career for you, a district-shaped career, but she is a known figure in Twelve and she wanted the same thing for you. A recognizable name. The fact that you chose to use the double surname, Pinecone-Abernathy, wounded her a little. 
You think she is a little better now. She accepted that you love Haymitch and, most importantly, he loves you. He helped you with your new job, spent a lot of time working with you and that lightened him in her eyes. And you are working, you have your own money, that reassures your mom.
«You won’t lose me! I’m just getting married.» You try to say, but now she has tears in her pretty eyes.
Your mother is very pretty. Prettier now, after the war. She is a bit of a celebrity in Twelve now, she helped everyone during the reconstruction and you caught more than one man lurking at her, but she doesn’t want anybody. 
She strokes your hair, and she watches you like you are about to go away.
«But you will be so grown up… and you are starting your shop, and even have an apprentice. You are an adult now.»
You shake your head. You have been an adult for several years now, and you risked your life at least twice.
«I was an adult when I went to the Hunger Games…» You try to resonate, but she is trying not to cry now.
«Yes, but now, now it’s a happy thing.»
«Really? You are happy for me.»
«Yeah well, I didn’t like it so much at first but he is a good man. He loves you. Even I have to admit it. And it’s obvious you love him too.» It’s a great thing for her to admit that Haymitch is a good man.
«I love him so much, mama.»
You hug her. It’s weird, you never hug each other, you are a hugger but not with your mother, and yet you need to hug her now. She squeezes you like she doesn’t want you to leave, but then she takes a step back.
«Promise me you will be happy. There will be problems, in every family there are problems but promise me you will try to be happy.»
«I promise you.»
She smiles and she looks satisfied now.
The dress is beautiful. You designed it after a tale you read, one of those fairy tales your mother used to tell you when you were a little one. The white fabric is thin, maybe a little too thin but you are sure you are so excited you won’t be cold, and there are little flowers and crystals all over it.
Your raven hair is up in a majestic braid, thanks to Effie, and she put crystals and little pearls in it. Apparently she had it back at home, but you have to give it back to her. Your makeup is elegant as you requested, Peeta discovered himself a great painter even on faces. 
You look the best you could. You weren’t as stunning as you are now even in the preparations for the Hunger Games.
«Oh, darling girl. You are beautiful.» Effie opens the door and she already has tears in her eyes. She is beautiful. She is one of the bridesmaids, in a light pink dress that suits her shape. You are so happy for her, she is going to be a bride herself in a few months and you are making her the dress, as Portia made Haymitch’s. 
After the fashion show you came back to District Twelve and you opened a small shop in the town. It wasn’t easy and you were so scared at first, but it’s turning out great. The shop itself is very cute, with plants and a lot of fabric everywhere and a large table where you can work everyday. It’s rather small, but two girls asked you one day if they could come and learn. You said yes, and you are happy you can teach them. It’s almost like being a teacher again. They are adorable, and they really want to learn from you. You try not to bear them with work, they are still in school, but there is a lot you can teach. They are helping a lot. You like this new district life, people tend to help each other, you spent several times in the bakery with Peeta, and Katniss gives you the animals she hunts. Well, she gives Haymitch the animals she hunts, because you can’t stand the sight of a dead animal. You are well aware this makes you a hypocrite, but you really can’t.
«Thanks to you.» You hug Effie again and you try to memorise her scent. You miss her a lot, now she lives in the Capitol and you are in Twelve, you always talk on the phone but it’s not the same thing. And she is about to get married. Everything is changing, and you are happy because it’s changing for the best, but you would want Effie Trinket in your life again everyday. «Thank you, Eff. You gave me a home when I needed one, and you always protected me.»
She blushes, she is not used to compliments anymore. «No, thanks to you. So, are you ready?»
«No.» You find yourself saying. Not of the marriage, but the wedding. You love a spotlight, you try to remember. Well, you love the idea of a spotlight.
«Yes you are!» She squeezes your arms.
«Yes I am. But what if I trip?» 
«Haymitch will catch you.»
«Oh. That’s really sweet.»
«Are we ready?» Finnick comes in, in his dashing suit (you made for him) and he offers you his arm. Thank heaven for Finnick on this day, this is just the face you want to see. «How are you feeling?»
«Scared to trip and fall. But apart from that, you were right. I know this is the right thing, I’m not scared of getting married.»
You hug him too. Somehow he is taller now, and you can tell by his eyes that he is really happy. He is living his best life in Four, with Annie and little Finn, who is growing up joyous and carefree. He will never live the games. Hopefully he will know the games from the school books, when he will be older.
They are trying to have a second child, hoping for a daughter. You are ready to spoil her rotten too.
«Good, because it’s time.»
You start walking, leaning a little to Finnick because of the heels, and you see the people in the aisle. You wanted a little district marriage and not a great Capitol wedding, and you had it but you also managed to gather together the people you love. 
Your mother is splendid in her light blue dress and now she looks even younger, calmer and happier. Next to her there are Cinna, Plutarch and Fulvia, Johanna and Finnick with Annie and little Finn, who is being a very good boy; Effie and Portia are on the other side of the aisle, with Chaff and Beetle. Mags and Tigris are in armchairs, because they are too old to be in chairs.
Ivy and Marjorie are here too. You didn’t want Marjorie at first, and Haymitch didn’t even think about it because he knew your position, but you wanted Ivy. You didn’t want to explain to the little girl why she wasn’t at your wedding. So you knocked at the woman’s door and you talked for hours. You will never be friends, but she explained the situation to you and she promised she would never do something like that again. You agreed to be civil, for baby Ivy. You swore to protect her, after all.  
Effie, Perla and Lora are behind you, the bridesmaid and the maid of honour. You are going to be Effie’s and she is yours. You designed their dresses to suit them, because your friends have to be beautiful.
On the other side, Peeta and Katniss are behind Haymitch.
Oh, Haymitch. He is dashing in his suit, and you didn’t even think he would have worn a suit, but he is and he is smiling about it. When you are next to him he winks at you.
«Do you want to take this woman as your wife, to live together in matrimony, to love her, to honour her, to comfort her, and to keep her in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?» The major asks him.
«Yes.» He takes your hand and you have to resist the urge to smack him, because that’s not the tradition. «I would be crazy not to have her as a wife.»
You blush, and you blow him a kiss. The major represses the urge to roll his eyes, you just know.
«Do you want to take this man as your husband, to live together in matrimony, to love him, to honour him, to comfort him, and to keep him in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, for as long as you both shall live?» Now this is your turn.
You watch him with your doe eyes, and you keep your hands in his.
«Of course I want to!» You answer with joy.
«You may kiss the bride.» The major offers, and he barely ends the sentence before Haymitch takes you in his arms to kiss you with passion.
Twelve might be the poorest District, but you people know how to party. 
Not a Capitol party, a Twelve one. Katniss sings old songs, there is a band and everyone is dancing. Your mother is the heart of the dance, she was a wonderful dancer when she was younger. You watch Finn and Ivy giggling together, your best friends moving with the music and you find yourself happy. Mags and Tigris are sitting down, chatting like the old ladies they are, and Chaff is with them, remembering old days.
Everything is going fine now. Perla and Cinna are in Capitol City, trying to live an adult normal life, they are not talking about a wedding but they would like to have a child. Effie and Portia are on the verge of preparing for their special day, and you think you are going to spend a lot of time in the Capitol to help them, especially Effie.
Lora is living with you and Haymitch. She has good days and worse ones, but she is managing it. She wants to travel, when she will be better, to see other cities, other places, other districts. She sometimes babbles about going over the district, in the land where you don’t know what the hell is there.
You go near Haymitch and you kiss his cheek. He is thinking, alone on the porch, but he doesn’t startle: you can’t surprise him. He smells like wood and cologne today and it’s different, but good different.
Your husband. Now he is your husband. 
«So, we are married.» You state, a smile on your face. But he has his dose of dumb smiles on his face too, so you are not too worried.
«I’m very lucky to have you in my life, Sweetheart.» He circles your hips with his arm and he kisses you again. You’ll never get tired of it.
«And I’m the luckiest woman on earth. Sweetheart.» You mock him, but he just stays there, watching you like he just saw you hanging up the moon. Maybe it’s a bit too much, but you are not going to complain about it. «And apparently my mother likes you now.»
«She knows I love you.» He states, and strokes your hair. You know he loves your raven hair.
«You are not scared to say it.» 
«No, not with you. Not anymore.» He kisses your cheek and you are supposed to be worried about your makeup, but you danced your heart out and sang and you already made the pictures, so he can snuggle as much as he wants to.
«I’m serious when I say I’m so lucky.» You whisper. 
«You are a survivor, Daisy, this is not exactly being lucky.»
«Yeah, but now I have everything I want. My shop, two girls I can teach to, my friends, you.» You explain. «You are mine now, I can’t quite put the finger on it.»
«Totally yours, also because no one else wants me.» He jokes.
«Good! Just mine!» You are completely in his arms again, and you make a coy smile, hoping to be flirtatious. «I made some alterations to the wedding dress, so you can…» You finish the phrase in his ear, and you feel the grip becoming stronger. 
«You are a total minx.» He growls. Exactly the growl you wanted to have from him.
«And I’m yours. Are you happy?» You shameless flirt.
«You know what, yes. I am.» 
«Good. Because I have the intent to make us extremely happy for the rest of our life.» You promise.

The Worst Musical
Steve Rogers x Daughter!reader, Clint Barton x Teen!reader
Clint takes you to a show in New York with his family
Word Count: 1,072
Warnings: Mentions of Steve dying, scenes from Hawkeye ep, 1 (let me know if I miss any)
Tumblr media
You didn’t want to be in New York watching a musical about your dad but Clint and his wife, Laura, forced you to go. They thought it would be good for you to go outside and do something. Ever since your dad ‘died’ you had stayed in your room not talking to anyone and doing nothing. You didn’t want to do anything but it didn’t stop them from trying to get you excited about something. Clint tried to help you freshen up on your hand to hand skills but you didn’t budge. Laura thought you might enjoy cooking or baking but you couldn’t have cared less. Clint’s kids tried to get you interested in music, and video games, and anything teenagers might like but you weren’t interested. The Bartons thought a trip to New York might be the thing to get you back but it wasn’t working.
~~~~~
“This musical sucks,” you said, crossing your arms over your chest.
“It hasn’t even started,” Clint said, looking over at you. He didn’t want to be here either but the kids wanted to see it and didn’t want to say no. He didn’t want to leave you in the hotel alone so he dragged you along as well.
“I don’t need to watch it to tell it’s gonna suck. They’re using a dead man for attention. It’s awful.”
“Well that’s a bit harsh isn’t it?” Clint asked. He knew you were more angry at Steve than upset for leaving. He chose to leave his child rather than stay with her. He understood Steve’s choice though. He wanted to go back to what he had before and Clint knows he wishes it involved you as well. It was tough.
“Was it harsh to leave his kid behind for another woman?” you shot back.
“Fair point,” was all Clint responded with. Since you tended to bottle up your anger, he didn’t want you to explode in public. He’d rather you do it when you were by yourself or with him, or not bottle up your feelings at all but he did the best he could.
Nate and Cooper returned to their seats with popcorn and Lyla came back from the bathroom right as the lights started to dim down. You were sitting on the outside of the group with Clint on your right and the seat next to you empty.
“Just try to enjoy it,” Clint whispered as the music for the first number started playing.
“I’ll try my best,” you said, rolling your eyes.
~~~~~
You managed to keep your anger at bay for most of the show, only making snide remarks here and there until a particular scene where the officers who picked your dad to be Captain America were talking about him.
“He’s a hero,” the guy on the left said.
You scoffed, making the people around you look in your direction, making you scoff again, “It’s true,” you said, a little louder, “Steve Rogers wasn’t a hero. He abandoned me and everyone else to go back for a woman he barely knew,” you were talking in a loud voice, interrupting the show. At first, people didn’t know who was saying it but once they looked, they saw you. Since everyone knew who Captain America was, they knew who you were too. Most people started forming sympathetic faces towards you, which only made you angier. You were about to say something else but you felt someone pull on your sleeve and out of the building.
“Y/n what the hell was that?” Clint asked harshly.
“I’m just telling everyone what their so-called hero really did,” you snapped, “They deserve to know the truth. That’s what the Captain would’ve really wanted.”
Clint sighed, “Look, I understand you’re angry and frustrated, and pissed and all other emotions like that but you can’t pull shit like this.”
“You’re saying I can’t be angry?”
“I just said you can be but you can’t blow up in public like this okay?”
“I didn’t ask for this Clint,” you said, tears starting to form in your eyes, “I didn’t ask to be born in a freaking SHIELD lab, I didn’t ask to be Captain America’s kid and I didn’t ask to be a media puppet for the remaining Avengers.”
“I know but trust me, it could’ve been worse for you,” he said, “You could still be a SHIELD lab rat and not have ever met your dad. How would that have felt?”
You ignored his question and focused on the first part, “What do you mean I could’ve been a lab rat?”
“You were young but for the first two years of your life, I took you in. I treated you like my kid because SHIELD wanted to keep you locked up and trained to be a new and modern Cap,” Clint explained. He had never wanted you to know all of this as it was an awful time for him, the family, and you, “I didn’t want that to happen to an innocent kid so I made sure it didn’t.”
“Well it didn’t work out well did it? Cause here we are,” you said, crossing your arms over your chest, “I still got here.”
“Yeah but you know what life is like right? You knew your dad and loved him. You had the Avengers as a family and made memories.”
“But now I have none of that so it doesn’t even matter.”
“Who says?” Clint asked, “You might not have the people but you still have the memories. And you can make new memories with new people. You can get over the resentment you have for Steve and move on.”
“But I don’t want to forget him,” you said quietly, your mood quickly changing, “I don’t want to lose him a second time,” it was the first time you had said the words out loud. You were so angry with him because you didn’t want to lose him in the first place so you held on to that anger to keep him around.
“Then don’t,” Clint placed his hand on your shoulder, “Stop being angry at him and start remembering him for the good times you two had. Remember all the happy things and he’ll still be with you.”
You nodded and wiped away your tears, “Do we have to go back in and watch?”
Clint laughed, “I think even if you wanted to, they wouldn’t let you back in.”

One of Us
A Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated/Mystery Skulls Crossover
<Prev Next>
Chapter 21
Pay For My Sins
What happened? 
Ah, yes. He was in Shaggy’s body. And that was probably freaking her out just as much as her being alive was freaking him out. 
Where was he even supposed to begin answering that question? Ricky was still working out ‘what happened’ for himself. And he didn’t even know where to start with what he did know. With waking up in Shaggy’s body? No - he needed to tell her about the sitting room. And to tell her about that he needed to tell her about Nova and the Annunaki. But wait - Nova had wound up in a coma after Cassidy left. So he’d need to tell her about the Horrible Herd… and about the fact that he’d nearly helped Pericles destroy Crystal Cove. 
Uggghhhh there was too much… he didn’t want to talk about this. What he really wanted to know was, “How are you alive?” He croaked.
“You first,” Cassidy bumped the floor back to him.
“Well I don’t even know where to begin. You- *sniff* You died, Cassidy. You were dead. Velma told me how it happened. There was no way out of there, and yet you found one. So how?” 
“Well I don’t know either and what I do know is a long story,” Cassidy retorted, once again bouncing the demand for an explanation back at him like a game of ping-pong. 
“Try me,” Ricky dared, bouncing it back a little too aggressively. 
“You- just- please Ricky,” She pleaded, raising their joined fingers to hold his hand with both of hers. “At least tell me why you look… not like yourself.” 
Ricky swallowed down the butterflies dancing in his stomach and sighed. She’d been back from the dead for all of what? Fifteen minutes? And already they were… fuck, he didn’t want to argue with her. And she was right, really. Her being alive was unlikely. His current state was- should be impossible. 
“I’ve been… body-swapped,” Ricky admitted. “With Shaggy and Arthur.” 
Cassidy was so surprised she dropped his hand. “Shaggy… and Arthur?” 
Ricky shook his head incredulously. “Yep,” he half-laughed, popping the p. He’d kind of gotten used to it, but explaining it out loud to someone really put the ridiculousness in perspective all over again. “I’m in Shaggy’s body, Shaggy is in Arthur’s, and Arthur is in mine.” 
“Arthur was with the kids just now,” Cassidy said, thinking out loud. “So you mean to tell me that was-” 
“That was Shaggy, yes.” 
“Ohhh I was wondering what he was doing, and why he was wearing- where did you get this?” Cassidy asked, looking at his yellow and white striped shirt and lightly poking his jacket. 
“Daphne,” Ricky replied, as if that explained everything. 
“Ah,” Cassidy said, because that did explain everything. 
“We kept getting called by the wrong names,” Ricky shrugged. “The shirts-” He cleared his throat, trying to remedy the hoarseness from all the crying. “-The shirts remind everyone who’s who.” 
“Uh-huh… I can uh… see how that would be confusing but just- how did this even happen???” 
“That is… a perfectly reasonable question,” Ricky said perfectly evenly, pointing at her with a shaking finger. “And I’ll tell ya,” he laughed in spite of himself, “I just need you to keep in mind here… that I am completely serious about everything I am about to tell you. And it’s gonna sound insane. I’m gonna sound insane. Just know that I am not fucking with you.” 
“Baby. I survived killer robots and an exploding underwater lab, only to almost immediately meet a kitsune, a ghost, a girl with a magic ice bat, and a kid with a metal arm. Try me.” 
Ricky sighed and nervously rubbed the back of his neck. “I… guess it all started-” But Ricky was cut off mid-sentence by his own stomach growling. 
Fuck. Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuuuck! Not now! But his stomach growled again. Louder. Angrier. Hungrier. It was just like yesterday morning. In all the excitement, Ricky hadn’t realized just how hungry he was. It felt like his stomach was trying to eat itself. Was it like this for Shaggy every morning? Once again, his stomach snarled in ‘how-dare-you-go-this-long-without-food’. And Cassidy looked at his stomach like, ‘oh my God was that you?’ And his blood rushed to his face in ‘why-are-you-like-this?’ and his brain thought to itself: ‘can we just self-destruct on the spot please? Thank youuuu…’
“Uh… Shaggy’s body- comes with its challenges,” Ricky tried to laugh it off. 
But that was when Cassidy’s stomach growled. “I uh… haven’t eaten since the meal they gave us on the plane.” 
Ricky snorted. Cassidy giggled. And then they were laughing together in a way that they hadn’t since they were teenagers. Ricky doubled over, and Cassidy leaned back and clapped her hands. 
“This- haha- this is ridiculous!” Ricky cried between his laughter. 
“We’re ridiculous,” Cassidy agreed. 
That only made Ricky laugh harder until before he knew it, his guffaws gave way into sobs and- 
He was crying again. 
Why the fuck are you crying again?! 
And of course, Cassidy noticed.
“It- It really is you,” Ricky gasped, wiping his eyes. “I’m sorry- I don’t know- *sniff* I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Just- I’m sorry.”
“Ricky… it’s fine.” Cassidy put a hand on his shoulder, but he jerked away. He didn’t deserve it. 
“It’s not fine, Cassidy! Wait- sorry. I- I didn’t mean to snap. That came out wrong. I just meant… that’s not what I meant. Sorry…” Ricky put his head between his knees, his fingers in his hair, and forced himself to take deep breaths. 
You’re being ridiculous. You can’t talk when you’re hysterical like this. It’s stupid that you’re even crying. You’re a grown man, dammmit! Well- okay maybe not at this exact moment but on the inside you are what the fuck is wrong with you get a grip- 
Cassidy was touching him. Her hand was on his back, rubbing circles. 
He didn’t pull away this time. 
༻˚⁺・⚉。○✼༓☾⦾♫෴♡💛♡෴♫⦾☽༓✼○。⚉・⁺˚༺
Another song had begun to play quietly from the dark recesses of the manor, harsh echoing beats of the keyboard like static with clashing crescendoing notes was the perfect accompaniment to the unease twisting her guts into knots.
What happened to you? 
The question stirring in Cassidy’s mind had made its way into her very bones. It was like there was a shaken soda can in her chest, the pressure building, expanding, steadily making its way towards that inevitable explosion. 
But she held it in. She watched. She listened. Because that was the only power she had right now. 
He jerked away at first, but Cassidy could tell - because she knew him, she knew him better than she had ever known anyone besides herself - that there wasn’t any anger behind it anymore. He was hurting, and he was scared, but this time he was trying not to push her away.
“Ba-by, I’ve been tryin’ to make shit right… For eeevry-one I’ve ever lied to…”
His snarky mask was the only way Mr. E knew how to deal with his pain. But Ricky Owens - Ricky used to talk to her. And maybe it was because he was technically seventeen again, but right now… 
Right now he didn’t look much like Mr. E at all. 
“With Mom and Dad, it was all fights…  But in the end it’s family that we are tied to…”
She waited for him to settle a little. Then she put her hand on his back. 
He jumped. But he didn’t pull away this time. 
“Lately I’ve been thinkin’ I’ve been too far gone, uh
“See, I’ve been tryin’ to pay for my sins. But they won’t take my money, baby…”
“Oh, I’ve been tryna pay for my sins!  Mh, but they won’t take my money, baby, oooh~”
Ricky finally sat up and licked his lips, but he didn’t look at her. “What I… what I was trying to say was…” 
“Oh, I’ve been tryna pay for my sins!  Mh, but they won’t take my money, baby, oooh~”
He swallowed and sniffed, then briefly wiped his nose with his sleeve. “What I um- what I said before… I’m sorry for exploding all over you like that. But uh… what I said. I know it didn’t come out right but… I need you to know. I meant every word.” 
Then he looked at her… suddenly she could hardly hear the music at all. Puffy eyed. Flushed. Tear stained. Broken, yet still going. The way he looked at her… she could see his very soul bared to her on that face. Every crack, scar, and open wound. Burdens as heavy as the sky itself. 
Most of them, Cassidy knew. 
Some of them, she carried too. 
But others… others were new. 
She asked herself again: What happened to you? 
“Cassidy I am so sorry,” Ricky said hoarsely, “For all of it. You were right about everything.” And the way he said it- the way he looked at her… as if he’d never meant anything more in his entire life. 
“Just give it a chance. Just give me a chance. Just give me a chance.”
“I was- I was wrong, and I should have listened to you. I- I don’t know what happened. It all went from protecting the kids to fighting Pericles, and then suddenly it became about the treasure. Mystery uh… The Mystery Skulls keep telling me I’m cursed. Or that I- that I was cursed. But… I don’t think that’s an excuse. I was selfish. And stupid. So, so fucking stupid. And because of me, people got hurt. You got hurt. I… Hurt you…” 
He trailed off, but she could see the horror written on his face. 
One of his burdens gained a name.
Ricky shook his head and cleared his throat. “And there’s… there’s only one thing I said earlier that I’ll take back. And that’s when I asked you how you could ever forgive me. Okay? Don’t-... Don’t forgive me… Just don’t. Because I don’t deserve it. And I’m never going to forgive myself.”
Cassidy was so stunned that at first she didn’t say anything. 
He apologized. He apologized! There was a time not so long ago when Cassidy thought she would never see the day. 
‘Don’t forgive me. I don’t deserve it. And I’m never going to forgive myself.’
The latter, she believed. 
But that face- ‘Don’t forgive me.’ His mouth said one thing but his eyes said something else. She could see guilt - but also that selfish wish we all have, for another chance. 
Maybe he didn’t deserve it. And Cassidy was still angry with him. One apology, no matter how sincere, wasn’t enough to change that. So for now at least, she did not forgive him.
But if he kept up whatever this was… then maybe one day she would. 
“Then I won’t.” And the way he deflated when she said it struck her right in the heart. But she wasn’t done yet. Once more, she took his hand in hers. “-But you’ve been one of the most important people in my life for over twenty years. I lost you for long enough - or maybe you lost yourself. Either way, I’m moving forward.” She lightly squeezed his hand. “-And this time I’m taking you with me.”
Ricky let out a choked, strangled noise and looked away, fast blinking before his emotions spilled out again. 
Finally, not meeting her eyes he croaked, “... Why?”
Cassidy took a while to answer that. Finally, she replied. “There was this kid I knew once. But someone hurt him, and he lost… everything. And the person he became as a result was very different from the boy I loved.” 
Ricky gulped. “... And what happened to that boy you knew?” 
“The rest of the world forgot about him, as if the man he became just appeared from thin air one day. But I never forgot about him. And as different as he was… he was still important to me. That’s why I stayed. Even though he was… lost. And made some pretty dumbass decisions. But I had hope that he’d get his shit together. And now that I think he has…” Cassidy trailed off, unblinking, staring pointedly at Ricky. “He doesn’t exactly look the same as I remember right now… but I’d know him anywhere."
“... I think he’s gone Cassidy,” Ricky whispered.
“I don’t think that’s true,” Cassidy disagreed firmly. “You look more like the real Ricky Owens right now than you have in over a decade, Ricky. Twenty years, and you finally get your shit together? I know what you’ve done… But I did not just get you back, only to shove you away.” 
“Maybe you should.” 
“Maybe I know that. And maybe don’t give a fuck.”
Ricky looked away sharply. They didn’t say anything for a few seconds. Then he whispered, “I thought I killed you…” 
Again, Cassidy had to take a minute before she knew what to say to that. 
“... Mystery told me that you had nothing to do with it… Is that true? Did you really not know?” 
Ricky shook his head, and his voice cracked. “No… And I swear I never would’ve let him if I knew. I’d’ve thrown him out… and he knew that.” Ricky’s voice hardened with rage as he gripped the edge of the step upon which he sat hard enough to turn his knuckles white. “He had to have fucking known that, because if he didn’t he wouldn’t have kept it from me!” Ricky started to shout, but he took a deep breath and checked his tone. 
“Cassidy,” he began again, “I swear. On. My. Mother’s. Grave. I didn’t know. About the robots or the fact that he was using them to attack you. Hell - I bet that’s why he used the damn robots. They weren’t Destroido assets, so there wouldn’t’ve been any way for me to find out what he was doing with them until he barged into my company with them!” 
Again, Ricky checked his tone. “-Sorry… the more I think about it, the angrier I get. But still… none of that changes the fact that your death… it would’ve been on me, Cassidy. You almost died. Because of me. And I’m going to have to live with that… for the rest of my days.” 
“Then explain it to me,” Cassidy said. “If you didn’t know, then tell me how it was your fault.” 
“I gave him the tools,” Ricky sighed. “He never would’ve had the resources to do what he did if it weren’t for me. The factory wasn’t mine and he did it behind my back, but he would’ve needed to use my assets to get it up and running again. Money, equipment, a submarine so that he could get down there to begin with… And secondly…” 
His whole body tensed. “-Because he said something needed to be done about you,” And he refused, refused to look at her when he confessed this sin. “... And I agreed with him."
"I don’t know what the wool over my eyes was made of. Was I so hopeful that I had my friend back? Did I just want so badly to think the best of him? Was I delusional? Stupid? Cursed? I don’t know! But I swear Cassidy, I swear on everything I hold dear. Somehow, it never even crossed my mind that- that he’d…” 
Ricky took a shuddering breath and swallowed before he continued. ��I thought we were going to convince you to join us. Maybe threaten you. Convince you to leave town. And I know- I know how awful that sounds. It was awful. I’m awful. But at the time- at the time it seemed like what was best for everyone. But then he never said anything to me about it again, and eventually I noticed that it had been a while since I’d heard from you… then that you’d never gone so long without contacting me. And I- I was terrified, Cassidy. But for some reason I still told myself that you weren’t dead. That you couldn’t be dead. Because you’re… you’re…” 
“... I’m what?” Cassidy demanded coldly. 
Ricky’s face burned red with shame and as livid as she was, Cassidy couldn’t help but be reminded distinctly of how cute he’d once been - the way his whole face blushed when he was young. He looked away when he answered her. 
“... Because you’re the most powerful person I’ve ever known.” 
God. Fucking. Dammit. 
I’m angry. So fucking angry. Be angry with him, dammit! 
But fuck, he was making that difficult. Anything Cassidy had been bracing herself for, it wasn’t this. And he was still adding icing to the damn cake. 
“I took you for granted Cassidy,” he sighed. “When we uh… before we broke up, I was… I was such a jerk to you. And still, when I asked you to, you uprooted the life you’d built and you came back here for me. I never properly thanked you for that. And I never told you… how much respect I really have for you. Because you really are… the most incredible person I’ve ever met. And I’m sorry, because I guess that I sort of had you on a pedestal. So it didn’t occur to me that you were just as human as I was and that you could-” His voice hitched- “That what I was doing could get you killed… and I know ‘sorry’ is just an empty word… but I am so, so sorry for that, Cassidy…” 
STOP MAKING IT SO HARD TO BE MAD AT YOU!
Cassidy was just… stunned. It was such a drastic, drastic change from the man she’d left in the woods months ago. Once again, a question came to mind. And this time, she whispered it aloud. 
“... What happened to you?” 
He processed the question, and his face transformed. The sadness, the regret, the guilt all at once became deep shame and fear. Fear the likes of which she had only seen on his face a handful of times, even with how long she’d known him and all that they’d been through together. She could almost see the words forming on his tongue, but his lips just wouldn’t move. 
He wants to tell me, she realized. But he’s terrified to. 
༻˚⁺・⚉。○✼༓☾⦾♫෴♡💛♡෴♫⦾☽༓✼○。⚉・⁺˚༺
What happened to you? 
Had he really been so changed that his scars were so easily visible to her eyes?
At once, Ricky’s whole body tightened as if he expected mutant venom to start coursing through his veins at any moment. Horrible images flashed before Ricky’s eyes, ghosts of cruel words echoing in his ears. 
“Oh Ricky, Ricky…” “-an idiotic human mascot!” “-Anyone who crosses me gets-” “You are in charge of nothing!” “eliminated.” “-A shoulder for me to perch upon!” “You do. As I say.” 
‘Tell her…’ A putrid, pitiful, desperate part of him begged. ‘Just tell her!... Please…’ 
And he wanted to. God, he wanted to… 
But how could he? 
“Perhaps… after breakfast, yes?” 
Both of them jumped and turned around to see Mystery sitting on the steps above them. 
Suddenly Ricky was back in the here and now. That frightened part of him went back into the box from whence it came and anger welled up instead. 
“Youuuuu…” 
“Good morning Ricky,” the kitsune said pleasantly with a flick of his tails.
“YOU COULD’VE TOLD ME SHE WASN’T DEAD MYSTERY!” Ricky shouted! 
“You’re right. I could have,” Mystery replied calmly. 
“SHE’S BEEN ALIVE THIS WHOLE TIME?! YOU KNEW THAT! AND I- YOU KNOW WHAT I WENT THROUGH! YOU WERE THERE!!!!” 
“I was,” Mystery replied, his pleasant tone unchanging. 
“YOU SHOULD HAVE FUCKING TOLD ME!” 
“You’re right. I should have.” 
“A FUCKING WARNING AT LEAST! What’s the use of having telepathy- WHYDIDN’TYOUWARNME?!”  
“Because I was a coward.” 
It was said with such ease and sincerity that it threw Ricky right out of shouting mode. “YOU- what?”
“I was a coward,” the kitsune shrugged with a sad smile. “And you’re right. I should have told you. In fact that was my intent. But I knew it would hurt you, and I was afraid. So in the end… For all my talk of lessening the shock for you, I let you see it for yourself. I shouldn’t have done that, Ricky. I’m sorry.” 
Ricky blinked at him. Raised an indignant finger. Opened his mouth with a deep inhale as if he wanted to yell… then let it out, defeated. “There were literally dozens of opportunities yesterday for you to have told me, Mystery. For any of you to have told me! So why didn’t you?” 
“Because we were worried about Arthur,” the kitsune answered honestly. “At least at first, that was the answer. We believed disclosing the fact that Cassidy was alive would hinder any efforts to rescue Arthur. But even after it became clear that no ‘rescue’ would be taking place, we knew we needed to come clean about our…” Mystery gave them a look and used a paw to gesture to himself and the very haunted mansion. “And if we told you about all of that and that Cassidy was alive, combined with everything else that happened yesterday, we believed it would have been too much for you. The plan really was to tell you about it this morning over breakfast. Cassidy wasn’t expected to arrive for almost another two hours.” 
“Dog. Do not put that on me. Vivi made it sound like-” But Cassidy glanced at Ricky and nervously cleared her throat. “-She said it was urgent. So I took shortcuts. No breaks… may have taken the speed limit as a suggestion.” 
“I wasn’t, as you say, ‘putting it on you’,” the kitsune sighed. “You’re both right. We should have planned for this. But we did not, and the result was a rather nasty shock. Vivi and Lewis will apologize personally as well, but at the moment they are in the kitchen with the kids, making breakfast. When you’re ready, I’d like very much for you to join us.” 
Ricky was staring at Mystery, dumbfounded. “... What’s the catch?” he asked suspiciously. 
“No catch,” Mystery said pleasantly. “I made a mistake. An apology is the least you deserve.” 
“So… that’s it? You’re just… you were wrong?” 
“I was wrong,” Mystery confirmed. 
“And you’re just going to admit it and apologize just like that?” 
“Just like that,” he nodded. 
Ricky could scarcely believe it. Where was the digging in? The dismissal? The gaslighting? To just… receive a genuine apology like this so easily was… weird. 
Dammit. Mystery had proven himself over and over again, and yet here Ricky was, once again comparing him to Pericles. 
And clearly Mystery realized this, not that he took it to heart. But, he couldn’t resist the opportunity to insert a jab at the parrot. He tilted his head and asked passive-aggressively, “What kind of egotistical, feather-brained cockalorum would do otherwise?”
“Shaddup! I’m not used to this!”
Mystery just laughed, tails wagging. And that’s the moment Ricky’s stomach decided to roar in protest once again. 
Uuuuugh… bury me… Ricky pulled his hood over his head with embarrassment and tugged on the strings to close it. 
“Breakfast?” Mystery chuckled. 
“Yez please…” Ricky grumbled, muffled through his jacket.
The kitsune laughed again and affectionately nuzzled him on the top of the head with his nose. “Come,” he said, stepping over Ricky and Cassidy to lead the way down the stairs. And Cassidy’s eyes followed him in utter amazement, hardly believing the interaction she’d just witnessed. But Mystery’s voice snapped her out of her daze. 
“We’re in for a treat. Lewis is making crepes in honor of your return Cassidy, he began making preparations early this morning. The Peppers run a restaurant as you know, and the crepes are positively delectable. Lewis hasn’t told me what kind he’s making though. The nutella filling with banana is divine, but a bit too much sugar for my taste. Then there’s the more pleasant tang of lemon and blueberry, or the subtle sweetness of vanilla and strawberry. My personal favorite is chicken, spinach, and basil sprinkled with cheese, but then again I am primarily a carnivore by nature so it is sensible that my palette would lean more on the savory side. Then there’s when he substitutes chicken for steak…” 
Smiling, Cassidy made eye contact with Ricky over Mystery’s tails as they followed him, and Ricky snorted when she shook her head and rolled her eyes fondly at the kitsune’s ramblings. 
Crepes really weren’t what was important right now, but Mystery seemed to have a mysterious way of knowing exactly what to say to make his friends feel better. The talk of food was entirely irrelevant to the issues at hand, and if anything it was just making Ricky hungrier. But the kitsune seemed so nonchalant, his rambling so utterly domestic, that as uncertain as what lay ahead was… 
He truly made it seem as if everything was going to be okay.
༻˚⁺・⚉。○✼༓☾⦾♫෴♡💛♡෴♫⦾☽༓✼○。⚉・⁺˚༺
Vivi and Lewis were waiting for them outside the kitchen area, and Cassidy went inside while Ricky stood, arms crossed, and waited for the inevitable apology. 
They didn’t say anything for a couple of moments, the Mystery Skulls at a loss at how to begin, before Ricky grew bored of their squirming, pursed his lips, and said, “So. She’s alive.” 
Both of them gulped. “Yeah. Yeah, she is.” Lewis said. 
Vivi cringed, “We really did want to tell you-” 
“Save it,” Ricky interrupted her. “Mystery already told me why you didn’t tell me. And I…” Ricky groaned, frustrated, and ran his fingers through his hair. “I get why you did it. And it makes- sense. But dammit the more I think about it the more opportunities I think of for you to have told me, and the madder I get at you!” 
“Which is totally valid-” 
“And you’re just- accepting that you messed up, and owning up to it, and it’s weird!” 
Vivi and Lewis gave him a look. “Dude. Do the people around you usually… not?”
Ricky opened and closed his mouth, realizing there was nothing he could say without giving away yet another thing to make the Mystery Skulls feel sorry for him. So he just growled, frustrated, and marched into the kitchen. 
As mad as he was at the Mystery Skulls, his brain compartmentalized his anger the second he walked into the kitchen. 
Wow, am I happy to not be Cassidy right now. 
No one was eating yet, as Lewis still wasn’t quite done with breakfast. But Ricky didn’t think they’d be eating even if the food was ready. Nope. Fred, Daphne, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby were doing the very same thing he’d been doing to Vivi and Lewis a moment ago: wordlessly glaring as both parties silently battled over who would talk first, and what would be said when they did. 
Ricky knew the feeling. He’d been in that very same position this time yesterday, when he’d awoken in Shaggy’s body. And now, it was Cassidy’s turn. 
The difference was that while they’d looked at him with confusion, anger, distrust, and dislike, the kids looked at Angel… hurt. Confused. Needing an explanation before they could move forward. 
And honestly, Ricky felt the same way to an extent. She was alive. It was a miracle, almost too good to be true. But there was an explanation for everything, rational or supernatural. Whatever had happened, to allow her to remain alive on the same Earth as him, he was grateful for it. 
And yet, he still needed to know: how?
As Ricky nervously approached, Cassidy was seated at the head of the table, and he got the impression that the kids had put her there based on the way they were sitting around her. Save one empty seat right beside her, which Daphne pulled out for him when he got close enough. 
Oh dear, they’ve put me right at the heart of it, Ricky realized with a gulp, sitting down in the seat they’d saved for him. Ricky tried to appear small as the tension in the room mounted. He felt his stomach twinge. Please do not growl right now, he begged himself quietly.
Angel started to say, “Babies-” 
“How are you alive?!” Velma demanded loudly.
Ricky jumped and suddenly didn’t feel quite as hungry.
“Yeah. Like, what gives? Like I thought you weren’t gonna lie to us anymore!” Shaggy said, hurt. 
“Hold on guys, give her a chance to explain herself,” Vivi said, sitting at the table next to Mystery, who had turned back into a dog for the sake of fitting at the table.
“You have no room to talk!” Fred snapped. “You knew about this, too! You’ve known since before you came to Crystal Cove! Why should we listen to you when you’ve been lying to us since the beginning?” 
“I don’t know. Maybe because the town is cursed and we’d literally just met you,” Vivi said pointedly. “It wasn't safe yet for Cassidy to come back into the fold. We couldn’t risk telling anyone until we were formally working together and had some trust built between us.” 
“Fine. That I can understand,” Daphne sighed. “But Cassidy… we cried for you. We’d just started trusting you again. You couldn’t have sent us a message? Something to let us know you were okay? How could you do this?” 
“I know, I know. Believe me, I had meant to never lie to you again. But then… you don’t understand-” 
“Then make us understand.” Velma demanded. 
Cassidy sighed, and began to tell her story.
Another short-ish chapter, but Chapter 22 is already well in the works and I've been working on something else as well that I really wanted to have done before I posted 21, but I'm at an art block rn and didn't want to make ya'all wait. I know a lot of you probably wanted to find out how Cassidy survived in this chapter, or for Cassidy to be caught up on a certain thing... but I thought that they needed to clear the air on some other things first. And the heartfelt reunion part 2/apology turned out a bit longer than I expected. So here we are. The next chapter tho, I will tell you, is dedicated entirely to how Cassidy survived and met the Mystery Skulls. It's going to answer a lot of questions, for sure... but will it raise even more? 😈 And uuuugh - again I need to write an entire post about why I picked this song for this chapter, but I just haven't! I haven't for 'God' yet either, but I really need to! Anyway - I hope you loved this chapter as much as I liked writing it!!! 😄
Chapters 1-20 of ‘One of Us’ are presently posted on Archive of Our Own!

Hey, a while ago, I asked about the sonics reaction to dad sonic(boom, modern and x) and said I'd like a follow-up with the Amy's and tails of these sonics too eventually and I'll be honest out of all of the Amy's while boom would be the most calm I'd also think she'd be the first to faint with dad sonic and boom tails freaking out a little about it the others I'm not sure.
I remember that!!
I’m trying to stay away from shipping as much as I can on my page. Not that I don’t ship anyone, or don’t like it, but I want everyone to be able to enjoy my content without being bombarded with a ship they don’t really like.
That being said, from now on, if I do happen to outright mention a ship, or heavily reference one in a post, I will put a warning like the one below in RED writing.
WARNING WARNING ALERT- SONAMY MENTIONS AHEAD ALERT-
Modern
Amy feels pleasantly surprised. The thought of marrying Sonic is a wonderful dream, and she’s stoked but also sad to see another her living that dream. She herself personally, she still very much loves Sonic, but she’s accepted that the chances of anything romantic happening between them is slim. Tails being their son in another universe is what shocks her. She doesn’t see Tails as her son, and she’s was under the impression that Sonic probably doesn’t want kids in his future. Amy doesn’t mind the other universe tho! As long as Tails is happy, safe, and has someone taking care of him, she’s happy.
Tails has some thoughts. First off, he’s shocked that somewhere somehow Amy actually managed to put a ring on Sonic. He’s not even completely sure himself about his Sonic’s romantic feelings for anyone, or if he even has any romantic feelings for anyone, because he never talks about it. He’s happy for them, though! He’s also happy that he can tease his Sonic about it later. Hearing that Sonic and Amy are his parents in that universe doesn’t get any reaction from him other than a “huh.” Amy isn’t really a mother figure to him, he sees her more as a big sister. Sonic being his dad actually makes sense to him! Even if he doesn’t see Sonic as a fatherly figure, Sonic did raise him. In fact, Sonic is Tails’ entire family unit. So this is cool! Ultimately he’s grateful that Sonic and Amy took him in in that universe.
Boom:
Amy’s calm. Collected. Ok, Sonic is her husband, and Tails is her son. Ok. Yea that’s great! Super! Then she goes home and freaks out cause HOLY SHIT SHE AND SONIC ARE MARRIED SOMEWHERE AND HAVE A WHOLE CHILD. Sure she and Sonic go out together sometimes, but MAN. AND THE DAD SONIC HAS MET HER SONIC AND TOLD HIM THAT HE AND HIS AMY ARE SPOUSES AND OOH SHIT OH FUCK- she’s happy. And Tails? Her son? Yknow what, sometimes she does see him like a son. She’s the mom friend, it’s only natural.
Tails laughs. Sonic actually did it. Granted, not his Sonic, but THE FUCKER ACTUALLY DID IT! He’s gonna bother his Sonic about this for sure. Sonic and Amy being his parents is actually something he thinks about quite often. They take care of him, sooooo mama y papa!
X
Amy’s soul has left her body and has ascended beyond this mortal realm. Fucking FINALLY!!! She is so excited she could explode. The others, especially Sonic, are giving Dad!Sonic a look of “what have you done?” Dad!Sonic realizes his fault when Amy practically throws herself on her Sonic, hugging him, kissing him, all while he’s not looking very thrilled about it, and while he isn’t saying anything, he’s still uncomfortable and trying to move away. Amy proposes to him on the spot and he’s like “marriage?? No way!” And now she’s sad. She didn’t even hear the part about Tails being her son, but if she did, she’d think it’s weird.
Tails is concerned. He asks this new Sonic if he’s ok, and is perplexed when he insists he is. Tails isn’t a fan of how Amy treats Sonic here, so the thought of them actually getting married somewhere and having a healthy fulfilling relationship is so foreign and weird to him. Hearing that other him got adopted by Sonic and Amy gets a nervous chuckle out of him. They’re just his friends! Sonic is a brother at most.

Share your favorite piece of dialogue from your WIP
“Wilbur, it is four fifty-eight! I checked the wall clock!” Ghostbur stops for a moment. “Wall clock. That sounds a little bit dramatic. How do-“
“Ghostbur, you need to hide.”
Ghostbur’s eyes widen (thank goodness, he’s finally looked away from the bloody mirror). “You called me Ghostbur!”
“What?”
“You haven’t called me Ghostbur since we met! Even though I’ve called you Wilbur a lot!”
Wilbur stares, dumbstruck, for a few seconds. Then he shakes his head. “Okay, I don’t care! You need to hide!”
“Hide? But I just got here.”
“Listen: Technoblade is coming.”
“Technoblade?”
“Yes, Technoblade. My flatmate.”
“You have flatmates?!” Ghostbur squeaks, holding his hands to his chest and shaking them excitedly. “I didn’t know you had flatmates!”
“Just one, and he doesn’t know about you. So come on, just hide!”
“So we’re surprising him?” 
“Hide!” Wilbur explodes, racing forwards and pushing Ghostbur away from the mirror himself, paying no attention to Ghostbur’s surprised yelp. 
Where to go, where to go, where to put him, where to go, where to-
“Bedroom,” Wilbur announces, steering Ghostbur in that direction. “To the bedroom.”
“The bedroom,” Ghostbur repeats, sounding awestruck. 
Wilbur stops abruptly, grip tightening on Ghostbur’s shoulders in order to stop him as well. Ghostbur doesn’t complain. “No. Crap, we can’t go in there. Techno’s gonna go in there. We can’t… crap.”
“Why would Techno be going into your bedroom, Wilbur?” Ghostbur asks, turning his head around to make eye contact. 
“Because we share.”
“Ohhh.” 
“Crap crap crap crap crap, turn around.” Wilbur, still gripping Ghostbur’s shoulders, spins around, beginning to walk in the opposite direction. “Kitchen. We’re going to the kitchen.”
“The kitchen,” Ghostbur repeats, sounding just as amazed as before. 
“You can get behind the island and stay there untilllll nope, not doing that.” 
“Why aren’t we doing that, Wilbur?” Ghostbur questions, voice hitching just a little bit when Wilbur tugs him to a halt. 
“Because Techno’s gonna go into the kitchen.”
“Why will Techno go into the kitchen?”
“Because he’ll want a glass of water.”
“Ohhh.”
Wilbur stands still, face tightening. “Crap. Umm…” 
Is there anywhere else Ghostbur can go? Wilbur doesn't really think so, because he’s scanning as much of the flat as he can and he can’t see a single good place to-
Wilbur’s eyes widen. “I got it.”
“A place to hide?” Ghostbur prods, sounding freaking excited. 
“This way.” 
Ghostbur lets out a surprised sound as he’s pulled away from the kitchen and down the short hallway, pushed mercilessly along by Wilbur. “Where are we going?”
“Bathroom,” Wilbur replies shortly.
“Oh!” A pause. “Why the bathroom?”
“Because it has a door.” Wilbur walks just a little faster, not bothering to slow down when Ghostbur trips over his own feet. “And you can lock it.”
“Oh!”
~~~
Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?
I don’t know, most of my fic ideas I’ve written :0 At least partially.
That being said, I did come up with one AU during church that I like but haven’t really written yet XD
The premise is…
Modern AU (I have too many of these it is a Problem)
Sally and Wilbur are young—like twenty—and newly married
Sally is also pregnant aksvsksgjs
They have sucky families so as soon as they married they took off in a van and never looked back
They’re basically just traversing the country, no end goal in mind. They are wanderers *nods nods*
At some point they come across three little kids who ran away from home/a foster home/etc etc I’m still figuring things out
They’re all Teeny, like seven or something
Smol bench trio :)
So now Sally and Wilbur have to figure out what to do with these random kids
Sally is all “oh my gosh babies I am their mother now I have adopted them oh my gosh Wilbur we’re parents”
And Wilbur is all “kids ew”
Something something Wilbur starts to grow attached to the little guys something something found family something something
That’s kinda it lol!

Broly movie semi-liveblog because of reasons
I only ever watched the original Broly movie once or twice cus of the suuuper long fight scene ending (and I think it came out, or we borrowed it from Blockbuster, around the time I was losing interest in DBZ)…which is great cus watching it now after the reboot movie has me going in almost totally fresh
Krillin’s puppy song (and how he just pauses then keeps singing after the ship lands X’D so you just hear him wailing in the background during Paragus’ big speech)
Paragus: I’m starting a new planet and I want you to be king Vegeta: :/ Paragus: Uhh…there’s also this big strong bad guy and only YOU can stop him! Vegeta: :/ Trunks: Dad, don’t go with him Vegeta: DON’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! *goes out of spite*
Vegeta gets to the planet, gets his ear talked off by Paragus, sees Paragus’ whole army, doesn’t react to anything, but takes one look at the big buff shirtless dude covered in jewelry and decides “I want to be alone with that guy for a while” (Trunks: “DAD NO” Vegeta: “DON’T KINKSHAME ME”)
Son “cat trying to convince you it didn’t just eat five minutes ago” Goku
“Golly, who could the Legendary Super Saiyan be?” *shows a whole flashback of Broly being the Legendary Super Saiyan and names the movie “Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan”*
Still gets me that the fan-favorite His Power Is Maximum villain’s weakness is that he flips out at the sight of the guy who cried in the crib next to him when they were babies
I’d still fight Master Roshi if I could risk getting within ten feet of him but thanks man for deflating the tension every time it gets serious here. And more importantly, giving my boy Oolong an actual reason to be here (designated driver). Which kinky freak on staff came up with that sequence of the two of them in bed together though?? XD
Realizing I haven’t seen the old DBZ movies since before my dad got his giant TV, and watching this thing in HD on a huge screen with surround sound blasting the doofy 2000s grunge rock songs shoehorned into the soundtrack just feels so wrong X’D
With Paragus’ whole thing being about trapping Vegeta on this planet so a comet can smush him, how much funnier would it have been if Goku had just shown up and immediately IT’d everyone back to Earth
This version of Broly is SO annoying, OMFG. Hulked-out glowing guy cackling about how he was gonna kill a child, “What do you expect from a true freak?! Wahaha~” Like 100% one of those guys who saw The Dark Knight and went “the Joker’s so dark and edgy, I wanna be just like him” Shut up already
Actually Broly’s fixation on hurting Gohan to upset Goku plus the Trunks-Vegeta dynamic could’ve made for an interesting subplot about father-son relationships, but nope I guess. Gohan and Trunks aren’t even in the reboot movie where they really dig into Paragus’ abuse of Broly (just a brief scene of Goten and Trunks calling Bulma for two seconds to tell her plot stuff)
Piccolo dragging Vegeta to the battle by his hair
I also actually love sad scared Vegeta because it makes him so much more interesting. Goku’s an excitable child whose relationship with martial arts is basically like a good work ethic, so he hears about someone stronger than him and gets all excited cus he wants to test his strength by fighting them. Vegeta’s an arrogant jerk generally used to getting his own way, so he hears about someone stronger than him and his first instinct is to go “pff, no way,” then when it’s clear the person IS much stronger he just shuts down. Probably a remnant of being terrorized and probably physically beaten by Frieza or his minions as a kid, cus you KNOW he wasn’t gonna just start taking orders from some guy who isn’t even his king dad
The classic DBZ squeaky foot noise when Broly walks...bless
“I’m the prince of all Saiyans, even you, Broly” “Then please try your best to make me kneel before you” Get a ROOM
“Did he really think I would die just because this planet is about to explode?”
*gives you my power, but in a tsundere way*
I’d been wanting to watch the first bunch of movies for a while since they use clips from em in the Ocean dub opening, but wound up with the 2nd movie set cus I found a good deal and the Broly reboot made me curious to revisit the original…now I’m torn between going on to Return Of Cooler & Super Android 13 my dumb funny beloveds, or going back to the 1st movie set and working my way up to truly Earn them XD

I’m horny
Mermaid Levi x Human Hange smut
Warning: ass play, sex is kinda pushed on to Levi?, that’s all I can think of
It was almost mating season. Levi hasn’t had a mate and never planned on having one. As he just deals with the frustration. He knows people find him weird for it but it can’t be his fault if he doesn’t find any other mermaids and or mermen attractive. Though what he doesn’t know is that there have been humans studying him from afar. Multiple men and women. All studying the mermaids and mermen. Expect for one man who was very fond of Levi and how he acted towards his own kind. Fond on how cleaned himself more often than the others. Though very fond on how long he could keep up without a mate.
POV: Levi
‘I don’t get why these people my own kind want mates so bad?’ I think ‘Furlan has had a mate but Isabel is freaking out that she hasn’t found one yet. Why? What’s so important? It’s only a little frustration. It’s not that hard to just deal with it.’
“LEVI!” Isabel cries swimming into the cave “What do u want now?” I say annoyed “I can’t find a mate! Do they think I’m ugly or icky or or” “Shut up about it” I say even more annoyed “Just try to find one next season if it so important” “Ugh! Levi ur no help!” Isabel says now annoyed “How am I supposed to help exactly?” “I don’t know! Just help!” ‘Annoying as hell” I think. “Well cry about it all u want I’m going to go get food near the shallower parts”. Isabel only got excited hearing that “oooo can I come!?!” “No.” I said swimming out of the cave.
POV: Hange
‘It’s around feeding time for the merman where is he?’ I think. I jump up as soon as a see a ripple in the water. ‘There he is!!” I think getting excited. ‘Gosh he’s so perfect and handsome and everything. I just wanna hold him! Or uh maybe some other things’ I think getting blushy at the thought. ‘I wonder if he would like it? Praise me for making him feel good? Would he get all blushy? Would he moan? Do mermen moan? Is it weird to want something in that way when it’s not human? Well he is half human so it shouldn’t be that wrong’.
I watch as the moonlight hits him perfectly and makes him look like a god as he strategically hunts fish and tears them apart to eat. ‘I wonder if he good with his mouth in other ways…’ I think ‘Is that even possible? Geez I’m just getting myself confused!’ I say rubbing my forehead. I feel myself getting hard ‘oh my god.. really? I shouldn’t be getting these thoughts in the first place.. it’s wrong! I think so at least. I mean can if really be that wrong? At least he’s half human and not a full blown fish! That would be wrong’. I feel myself getting even more frustrated ‘maybe I could get closer and maybe make myself to feel better’ I think walking slowly closer.
I sit down behind a huge rock just enough it hides me and I get a AMAZING view ‘I’m so close to him and so hard I think my dick is gonna explode…’ I think rubbing myself through my pants “gotta get these off” I mumble to myself, unbuckling my belt and unzipping my pants. I rub myself through my underwear and sigh as I slowly take off my underwear. Slap! My hard dick slaps my stomach when the underwear is finally off. I take my dick in my right hand and slowly squeeze the tip. “Oh shhitt” I say a bit to loud and startle the merman. ‘Oh shit’ I think ‘please don’t run away’.
POV: Levi
My ears twitch and I jump when I hear a weird sound. As I turn around to see what it was I see legs behind a rock. ‘Naked legs?’ I think ‘What human is naked around here? At night nonetheless’. Watching my back I go back to ripping apart my fourth fish weary ‘It sounded like a moan..could they be in pain? Hurt? But it didn’t sound like a in pain moan it sounded like a…’ I think trailing off to weird thoughts ‘Gross! I shouldn’t be thinking like that especially to a gross human!’ I think as I feel my face grow hot. ‘But what if they are hurt? What if they are dying right now?’ I shake my head ‘Why the hell should I care! Why? I’ve seen so many mermaids, mermen, humans, and more die! Why should I care about them?’ I turn around and look back ‘I’ll just go check..’ I think swimming over to the land side.
I inspect the legs from the edge of the water. ‘They seem to be moving? But not breathing moving..’ I slowly crawl on the land it hurts my tail but I could care less the pain isn’t enough to hurt me awfully. I finally get close to the person but instead of my jumping out at them they jump out at me! I shriek in surprise as they jump out and pin me down. I move around to try and get back to the water but they’re to strong. I try to flap my tail against them to try and try to free myself it doesn’t work. ‘What the hell!’ I think I look up at them slightly scared they are going eat me. “Shhhhhh” they say “I won’t hurt you! In fact I love you! I love everything about you I want to be friends with you! Best friends” they say with a huge blush on their face.
“What?..” I start to say but I feel something against me something soft but hard at the same time? I look down and realize what that is. ‘They’re naked!?! What the hell…’ I stop thinking when they push my head up by my chin “My names Hange Zoe. What’s urs?” I stammer with my answer ‘Should I tell them? They seem to be a total freak a four eyed freak!’ I get myself together and put a straight face on.
“The names Levi….now let me go will ya?!” I say starting to get really annoyed. “Oh my!” Hange says “Be nicer will you? I just wanna do some things with you..for science of course! Unless you’d want it to be something else?” I think about what the said “What the hell do u mean by that?” Hange starts touching my tail around my slits and I feel my face get heated. I start getting excited I’ve never felt this excited before. I feel like I want everything and everyone. I want this random person to pleasure me. ‘What the hell am I thinking!?! But I also want it so bad…’ I blush and my mind goes blank with pleasure as they start rubbing my slit where my dick is.
POV: Hange
I asks if he wants to do this. He practically screamed yes. So I did what was only right for him and starting fingering his anal slit. He moans like a bitch in heat I note as I somehow get soooo much harder. ‘I need him’ I think “right now”. I take my dick in my hands and put us in a 69 position. He takes my dick in his mouth so easily and starts bobbing his head. I take my fingers out of his ass and start eating him out. ‘I hope his dick will pop out soon…I could cum just thinking about it. Wanna see it sooo bad’ I think bucking my hips.
POV: Levi
‘My dick is starting to come out. It feels so good. Everything feels so good. Their dick tastes amazing’ I think in a haze of pleasure ‘Wanna mate them. Wanna knot them.’
POV: Hange
I feel his dick starting to come out so I suck and lick faster. In hopes it will come out soon. Once it does I’ll cum. Then I’ll make him come harder than he ever thought he could. I moan at the idea.
Pop! His dick comes out of his slit hard as ever! I fling my head back and cum. Hard.
POV: Levi
He cums in my mouth. It tastes divine, a mix of salty and sweet! As he slowly pulls out of my mouth I gasp for air and cough. “Wow” I say. Then I realize how hard I am and look down to see Hange positioning it in front of their ass? ‘What are they doing’ I think then the sink down on my dick. “Holy shhitt!” I moan and buck my hips hard over and I’ve again in their ass. I hear as they start moaning. ‘They also moan like a bitch in heat.’ I think. I feel my knot starting to grow and I moan louder and buck even harder and faster.
Soon I cum lots of it. Hange slowly trys to get off of my dick but can’t because of my knot. I laugh at them for their idiocy. “Don’t laugh at me!” They say blushing of embarrassment. “Cmon work with me back to the water will ya? The least you can do..” I say. “Alright fine!” Hange says as we slowly shift our way down to the water. When we make it I slowly start to fall asleep. “Thanks four eyes” I say as I shut my eyes. “Well your welcome” Hange says with small attitude as we both slowly start to fall asleep in the pool of the water.

Ok I'm here🤭 second read and feedback time 🩷
After a long day at nursery, Thea was out for the count. Snoozing away peacefully on the sofa with her favourite soft pink rabbit and once you knew she was fully out you went searching for Mason. He had to be here somewhere you just didn’t know where. OMG I LOVE THIS LITTLE GIRL🥹
If you were being honest with yourself, you felt a bit weird sneaking around the house like this. You’d only officially moved in with him three weeks ago so whilst this was technically your house now you still felt like you were snooping somehow. THEY ARE FINALLY ALL TOGETHER 😭
‘Please mate, it’s just one night. I promise I’ll make it up to you’ he told whoever it was quietly. ‘Thea hasn’t seen her uncle Lew in a month now and she misses you. You don’t want her to forget what you look like do you?’ AHHAHAHAHAH MASONNN DO YOU WANT TO GET RID OF YOUR BABY?😭😂
The fact of the matter was, he was right. Thea had been so excited about the three of you finally being one big family that she insisted on sleeping with the pair of you in the beginning. You let it slide for for the first two nights as her room was still being redecorated and you loved being all together but now Thea expected it and refused to go to sleep in her own room. GUYS NOT RIGHT CHOICE, SHE IS GOING TO SLEEP THERE FOR A LONG TIME NOW😂
‘Well maybe some other stuff when we get home’ he winked, causing you to giggle as you hid your face in his neck. ‘You know what it’s like at the start of a relationship, I just wanna be on you all the time and it’s difficult’ SILLY BOY🤭
Your first date was perfect, he took you to one of his favourite spots for dinner, his eyes practically hanging out of his head when he got a good look at you and after a night of constant flirting and laughing he walked you home and kissed you on your front doorstep. It felt like a fairy tale but dating your baby’s dad did come with its own set of challenges. OMG THE PERFECT DATE😭
Your sweet angel lighting up whenever he was around but you knew the goodbyes were getting tougher as their bond was growing deeper than ever. MY BABY GIRL😭
‘Before I go, I was just wondering if you were free next week? Thought you could come over and I’ll cook and maybe you could stay over if you want to?’ He asked, eyes full of nerves as he wasn’t sure if you were ready to stay the night and just as he thought, there was only one question falling from your lips. SCREAMING
‘Am I being too much?’ He whispered, your tummy sinking automatically at his tone and you wanted to reassure him straight away that he would never be too much. THIS MAN IS GOING TO BE THE DEATH OF ME
‘It’s okay, I’ve been waiting years for you. I can wait a little longer’ HE IS RIGHT 🤭
‘I mean, I’m no saint exactly. I had a dating app and stuff’ you told him, laughing at the way his jaw slightly dropped and a look of jealousy flashed in his eyes even stronger than before. HE IS JEALOUSSSSS
‘You had a boyfriend?’ He asked curiously, picking up on the way you specified it was only ever one man but you were afraid it had been nowhere near a boyfriend situation. HE IS FREAKING OUT
‘I’m so sorry’ he breathed, cupping your jaw gently but your look of confusion prompted him to carry on. ‘I’ve never really thought about it I guess but I bet there’s loads of stuff you’ve had to give up so I could have things my way’ OH BUT THATS SWEET
‘No it’s not’ he breathed. Kissing your forehead softly. ‘When you’re ready, I’m gonna look after you properly, okay?. WE HAVE NO DOUBTS
‘Hey don’t say that’ he teased. ‘You know how much I love her but if I don’t love you soon I’ll explode’ I GASPED
‘I know, I make sure she’s got the best bedroom out of all of us and she wants to spend every night in our bed. Just typical’ he scoffed, rolling his eyes playfully. ‘I shouldn't moan really. Before all of this started, whenever Thea was with you and I’d have to walk past her room I could never look in properly. Like it hurt knowing she’s not here all the time and this wasn’t her proper room, it was just her room at her dads house. It's so empty when she wasn’t here’ THIS IS MAKING ME TOO EMOTIONAL
‘Hell yeah I do’ he laughed, grabbing you and pulling you further into his lap. ‘Best thing I ever did was asking you guys to move in’ GIGGLING CAUSE HE IS SO HAPPY🥹
‘Bun’ she managed to tell him when he’d finally stopped attacking her but the roll of Mason's eyes let you know he wasn’t happy with her choice. AHHAHAHAH THE MAN WANTED SOMETHING MORE DIFFICULT
‘What do we think, sweet pea? You want it to match yours?’ SWEET PEA🥹
‘Well how about instead of me reading it to you, you show me what happens? I’ve always been more of a visual learner’ he teased, hands dipping under the hem of your shirt so he could touch your waist and you shivered at the feeling knowing he was about to take care of you just how you liked. NAUGHTYYYY
Thea really was Mason's best friend and the pair of them stuck to their promise of getting up and making you breakfast for your first sleepover. SHE IS HIS BESTIE 🥹
‘We go home soon?’ She asked quietly, pulling her bunny up to her chest to hug it tightly. OHH😭🥺 NO BABY GIRL
Mason said he was only popping to the loo so when he still wasn’t back as you finished wiping the surfaces you went in search of him, finding him in the back room with his head propped up on his fists and his bottom lip jutting out and the sight made your heart sunk into your tummy. OH MY BOY IS SAD😭
‘I just… I love you guys and I want us all here together permanently soon but it doesn’t look hopeful if she’s asking when she can leave’ SHE JUST ASKED HER TO MOVE😭😂
‘Thea baby, will you come over here for me?’ You asked, watching her put her toys down and come over. Reaching up so Mason would sit her in his lap and the smile he gave her because she’d picked him made you melt. NOT HER GOING TO HIM EVEN IF Y/N CALLED HER 😭😭😭
‘My toys’ she pouted, her eyes filling with tears immediately and you knew you’d have to break it down for her a little more. In her mind your houses were two separate things and if you were leaving that house then you were leaving everything that came with it there too. OH BABY
‘No more bye bye’ I'M CRYING, NO MORE BYE BYE LOVE😭😭😭
‘Mummy, I like pink’’ OBVIOUSLY SHE LOVES PINK OUR PRINCESS
‘I can make it pink for you sweet pea’ Mason chimed in. Clearly wanting to do anything for Thea to make her more comfortable in his house. ‘Nanny and grandad are here this weekend and I’m sure grandad will help me paint it when I’m back from my game’ HE IS GOING TO PAINT IT😭
‘You know I’d do anything for Thea’ you heard Tony reply and it warmed you to know she had such a supportive network around her. ‘I’m really happy for you, you know that right? I know this is what you’ve always wanted and yes you went about it a different way to most but I’m so proud of you and y/n for figuring it all out. Thea is such a special girl and it’s all down to you two’ TONY🥺
‘You’ll have to sleep with us tonight baby, your room won’t be finished until tomorrow okay?’ You told her but she nodded excitedly. Y/N NOOO😂 SHELL BE THERE EVERY NIGHT
‘We can’t have her in our room forever I’ll go insane’ TRUE🤭😌
‘You're such a good mum’ he whispered. ‘There’s me practically chucking her out on the street just so I can have you. Just shows you what this body does to me’ DEAD😂😂
You were more turned on than you could ever remember being, feeling safe and content in Mason's arms as he loved on you but as soon as his fingers tried to travel up to your chest you felt yourself go stiff. OH SHE IS SCARED
‘Stop talking’ he interrupted, kissing you heavily before pulling back to look you in the eyes. His face serious, causing you to gulp heavily before he started to speak. ‘All that stuff that you think you have, doesn’t matter to me. I’ve loved you this whole time, do you really think I care if you’ve got a tummy now?’ I'LL MELT
‘You carried my baby, do you not know how sexy that is? Do you not realise how horrically turned on I am just by the fact I was the last person to have you and now I get to have you again? You're so bloody beautiful and all I've wanted to do is worship you, you know? Kiss every single inch of you so no I don’t give a fuck if you look different cause you’re still my girl’ he reassured you, the words making your eyes sting but his cheeky smile let you know he wasn’t done making you feel better. ‘I’ve changed too you know’ I'M SCREAMING
🤭🤭🤭🤭 THE TATTOOS MOMENT
‘You know, you’re not the only one who’s got new tattoos’ you smiled bashfully. Watching his eyebrows raise but his eyes darken and you knew he wanted to see it right away so you carefully peeled yourself away from and laid down slightly on your side. Thankfully he followed suit and laid next to you and you watched as his eyes followed your fingers as you pulled the hem of your shirt up to reveal the left side of your ribs. IT'S TIIIIIMMEEEEEEEEE
‘Sweet peas, Thea’s birth flower’ you told him. ‘It’s meant to look like a mother and a daughter, she’s the little one’ GIGGLING AT THIS CAUSE I KNEWWWW
‘For my girls’ he whispered and the lump in your throat kept you from speaking. ‘So Thea’s a sweetpea, yeah?’ SCREAMINGGGG
‘You know, I still remember how you like it’ he whispered, lips on your neck as he squeezed your waist and you could feel your insides quivering as he turned you on even further. His hands reaching round to grip your bum and you gasped before his lips landed on yours again, stealing the breath from your lungs. OMG🫠
‘Hey, it’s alright’ he whispered, reaching to the side to grab your shirt again before sitting you up and helping you put it back on but his lips were on yours before you could say anything back. ‘We don’t have do anything’ OMG HE IS GOING TO KILL ME
THE SMUT? HER DECIDING TO TURN THE LIGHTS ON? AND HER TAKING HER TOP OF CAUSE SHE FINALLY FEELS COMPLETELY SAFE TO BE WITH HIM?
‘Mummy!’ You suddenly heard being shouted from down the hall. Thea’s bounding steps following her shouts and you quickly jumped away from Mason just in time for her to find the pair of you. HI MISSY YOU WOKE UPPP
‘Well, here's one of them’ he smiled, placing the flowers on the side so he could pull you into his body and leave a heavy kiss on your lips. ‘You alright?’ OH I WANT FLOWERS TOO
‘Here you go, baby. Couldn’t leave you out huh? Got you some to match mummy’s’ he told her. Handing her the small but perfect bunch and you could have melted on the spot. Thea’s eyes going wide as she took them from him before she got shy and hid her face in his neck but you could see her smile from a mile away. OMG MY MAN😌
‘Got us our own place for the night. Thought we could make dinner together and chill for a bit like we used to’ he told you. Popping his hand on your thigh so he could give it a gentle squeeze and the coy smirk he sent your way made your insides flutter. HE IS THE PERFECT MAN
‘With how quick we managed to make Thea I’m surprised there's not another one on the way’ Mason joked suddenly, fingers tickling your sides and you had to hide your head in his neck before your mouth seemingly ran away with you. SILLYYY
‘I just wish I was around more, you know? Yeah it’s great getting to do the fun stuff but nothing makes me happier than the normal stuff. Like coming home to you two and seeing how happy Thea is to see me. Bed times and bath times every day like that’s the stuff I wanna do’ OH MY LOVE
‘When Thea had just been born and we were staying with you. Remember that night I just lost it? Like I completely broke down and thought I couldn’t do it?’ OH🥺
‘Hey, what’s going on?’ He asked sympathetically but you were in no state to answer him right now. Letting him pull the pair of you into his chest for some comfort and even though you were embarrassed you felt yourself relax knowing you weren’t on your own anymore. DADA IS HOME
‘Its okay, love. Come on, let's sit down’ he told you, walking you over to the bed and sitting next to you ‘pass her here, yeah?’ He whispered, taking Thea from you and resting her on his chest before tucking you under his other arm. ‘It’s alright, don’t get upset. I’m here to help now. What do you need?’ OMG HE IS SO SWEET
‘Exactly, I’ve been sitting on my arse for hours’ he joked. ‘Just let me take over for a bit and you can have a rest, okay? No arguments’ PERFECT DAD
‘Okay well if you need me at all just come and get me please? You’re not on your own remember’ he told you. Repositioning Thea so she was cradled in his arms before wrapping an arm around your shoulder to pull you into his side. BABY🥺
‘Y/n? Is everything okay?’ HE IS HERE
HE CALLED HER LOVE
‘If you’re worried about me seeing things, you know I’ve seen it all before right? That’s kinda why we’re sitting here with a crying baby’ he joked and you couldn't help but give him a smile but as you attempted to pass Thea over so Mason could feed her, but he stopped you in your tracks. ‘Keep hold of her, just move forward a bit’ I LOVE HIM
OMG THIS NURSING MOMENT WAS THE SWEETEST EVER
‘I’m good enough, Mase’ YOU REALLY ARE
‘I remember waking up next to you in the morning and you were so embarrassed’ Mason teased and and you rolled your eyes at him playfully. DON'T TEASEEE😂
‘Of course I did’ he laughed, but before you could say anything back he was back to being sweet. ‘But I loved you then, and I love you now and I told myself I’d always take care of you. If that’s what you needed back then, my shoulder to cry on, that’s what I was going to be’ OH CUTIE
OMG BESTIE
YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT THEY ARE MY FAVOURITE FAMILY (AT LEAST FOR NOW🤭)
I LOVED HOW YOU PUT FLASHBACKS IN THIS AND HOW YOU GAVE US A BIGGER PICTURE OF THEIR LIFE
I LOVED THE SMUT AND HOW GENTLE AND CARING HE WAS
I LOVED THE MOMENT WHEN THEY TALKED TO THEA ABOUT THE MOVING, BABY GIRL WAS SCARED OF LEAVING DADDY AGAIN🥺
I LOVED THE LAST PART ABOUT THE NURSING OMG IT WAS JUST SO SWEET AND LOVELY
THIS WAS PERFECT, CANT WAIT FOR NEW ADVENTURES WITH THEM🤭
