I finished putting on my final stroke of blush before packing up my makeup container. I had a date with Soda tonight. I walked over to my closet, searching for something nice but classy to wear. I pushed all the other hangers to the side as I settled on a little black dress that i hadn't worn in a while.
I pulled out of my pajamas leaving me in just my underwear and bra. After that, I realized that the dress was tight enough to show my pantyline. I decided to just not wear any, its not like anyone could notice. Once I was dressed, I took my hair down from its ponytail, finishing my look.
I walked downstairs to grab my black flats and made sure to unlock my door for Soda. I make sure to unlock it for him all the time so he can just walk in. He was taking me to a restaurant that we've never been too. He wanted to try something new.
I was putting on my second flat when I heard my door shut and close. "Babe!" he yelled out for me. "Im in here" I replied. I heard running then felt hands around my waist. "You look so good." Soda whispered into my ear. It sent tingles down my spine.
He took me to his car aka Darry's truck that he borrowed. Soda kept his hand on my plump thigh as he drove. I just stared at him, watching him focus on the road and looking at his amazing features. "Anyone ever tell you you're a fine man, Sodapop Curtis." I giggled at my own joke. He smiled and shook his head slightly "Ive heard it couple times I think."
We arrived at the restaurant after 5 minutes of driving. Soda walked up and told them we were ready for our reservation. Fancy. He walked back over to me, grabbing my hand, walking us over to our table. A waiter came to take our drink orders, he was eyeing my figure but I chose to ignore it.
Im guessing Soda noticed because his grip on the table tightened.
I gulped because I knew he was jealous. Soda scooted his chair closer to me and leaned into my ear, "Im gonna rip that pretty dress off you later." he said as he squeezed the fat of my hip. I whimpered quietly, clearly getting worked up from just that. He scooted his chair back to his original spot, continuing on like nothing.
The waiter came back with our drinks, setting them down lightly and walking away. I sipped my lemonade as I tried to get my mind off of Sodas words. My thighs clenched in anticipation for what happening later. "What would you like, ma'am?" the waiter said to me, snapping me out of my trance. "Ill take the fettuccine pasta. T-thank you." I rush out quickly.
Soda told the waiter what he wanted, not even looking at the menu. Once the waiter left, Soda scooted his seat back over to me. "I got you all worked up, didn't I?" he said. "Soda, I want you" I whispered back to him.
He smirked, "And you can have me...after dinner." He knew what he was doing and he knew how i would react. Asshole. "Please, Soda!" I begged again. He pinched my thigh lightly right where the hem of the tight dress started. "After dinner, ok?" he said to me. I whimpered quietly once again before giving a shy nod.
By the time dinner was over, I was desperate and soaked. As we walked into my door, my back was already being pushed against a wall. Soda hot tongue ran against the soft skin of my neck as I moaned out. "Ive been waiting to do this all night, pretty girl" he mumbled between kissing my neck.
I felt his hand trail down to bottom of my dress.
The cold air hit my bare bottom half as he yanked my dress up. Soda brought his hand to my pussy, his fingers pushing through my arousal. "Fuck! Soda, please." His lips found there way to mine in a rush after that. I felt a finger push into me as we continued to makeout. The stimulation made me moan into his mouth, fueling him on even more.
I pulled away from his lips to beg for more, wanting to feel more satisfaction. "More, Soda more!" He smirked at my begging. "You're such a slut for me." I whimpered at his degrading words. Another digit found its way inside me, making me mewl from the feeling. "Shit, Soda keep fucking going!" He curled his two fingers inside, massaging my g-spot. My moans poured out, echoing in the room.
I draped my arms over Sodas shoulders, trying to maintain balance. A thumb found its way to my clit, the light circles on it making me silently scream. "You like that don't you, baby?" I nodded rapidly, "Yes, I love it! Fuck!" My pleas of "Faster" and "Just like that!" were loud. I felt my peak getting closer and closer as Soda rammed his fingers into me. I leaned forward until my head was in the crook of his neck, suddenly feeling shy.
Sodas free hand came to my chin, lifting my head up to look into his blue eyes. "Come on, don't get shy on me now. Come for me!" I cried out at his words, about to topple over the edge. "Fuck, Soda. I'm cumming!" My release gushed over finger, coating them slightly.
Soda brought his arousal coated hand up to my mouth, offering me a taste of myself. I immediately took his offer, running my tongue over the two digits. I began to pull off my dress before being stop. "You look so pretty, keep it on for me and turn around." I followed his directions with a smile.
My hands touched were braced on the cold wall, waiting in anticipation. "I cant believe you had no panties on in that nice place like a slut, sweetheart." his tone was sultry as he spoke. "Please, Soda! Fuck me." I heard a fly zip down and the buckle of his brown leather belt hit the floor.
Next thing I know, I felt the tip of Soda hard cock against my puffy cunt. I recoiled slightly at the sensation before whimpering from sensitivity. Sodas hands came to my hips, gripping them harshly as he pushed into me. We both moaned at the feeling. His thrust started at a unruly pace, making me silently scream once again.  "Soda! I love you so much. Oh!" I moaned out, already feeling breathless.
One of his hands came up to grab my breast from the back, slightly tweaking my nipple. "I love you too, pretty girl. You're so good for me!" Fuck. His other hand came up to my hair, pulling slightly. "Soda please pull harder." He let out a nod before pulling me back by my hair, my back again his bare chest. "Fuck!" he groaned out as I clenched around his cock.
He continued to thrust into me as I mewled and moaned. "F-feels so good" I whimpered out. "Yea? You like that" he responded. Soda hand cracked down on my ass, the sting only adding to the pleasure. "Yesss! I love it, Soda."
His thrusts remained steady as our bodies collided. I brought my hand down to my needy clit, making sure to get steady first. I rubbed tight  and soft circles on my clit, making myself shudder at the pleasure. "Mmmm" I moaned. My orgasm only got closer as we continued.
"Soda! M'gonna cum. I wanna cum. Please!" I felt like I was in heaven with the pleasure he was giving me. His thrusts started to become sloppier, signaling he was close. "Im right there with you sweetheart. Cum all over my cock!" Soda pushed into me a couple times before I finally came. "Oh shit! Cum inside me please. I begged.
He moaned as he released his warm cum into me, making me moan once again. He pulled out of me and turned me around. My back was once again against the wall as Soda pushed his lips onto mine. His cum was leaking down my thighs as we made out. "You're definitely wearing this dress around me 24/7" I smiled at him before giving a final kiss.

Late, late at night on the Human/K'laxi Starbase. Long after most everyone has gone to bed. The shops are shut, even the bars and dance clubs have turned their last tipsy patrons towards home.
The main promenade on the way to the Commons is dark, and quiet.
Linaren the K'laxi stands nervously at one end of the promenade. In his hands are a case holding his paints, brushes and applicators, K'laxi safe solvents and his idea.
Across the Human/K'laxi Sarbase, and in fact in nearly all human Starbases, Art is promoted, encouraged, and loved. Human starships are all decorated, painted in wild colors and patterns. Human pressure suits are decorated, human spaces are decorated. When the humans came to the Starbase, they brought their institution of public art with them.
Anyone can pick an open area on the walls, floors or ceilings of the Starbase that isn't already painted on and isn't used for infrastructure, security or other essential needs to decorate. They can decorate in any way that suits them. Most people paint, but people have yarnbomed, put up textural mixed media pieces and even sound and light installations.
If everyone likes your art, it stays up. If they don't, you get to keep it up for a week and then the next person who applied to use the space gets their turn. In some parts of the Starbase, the art changes weekly, in others, it has never changed. Crowded and popular locations like the promenade, commons and docking bay have a near constant rotation of art with some special and much loved pieces staying in place.
Linaren put in his request to Starbase yesterday and was surprised when it was approved almost immediately. He wasn't asked to provide any drafts or drawings of what he was going to do. Just where he wanted to apply his art. In his approval Starbase pointed out that due to his choice of location, his best chance would be to do it after most everyone went to sleep.
"I want to paint a mural on the floor of the promenade, right at the entrance from the docking bay." was all he wrote in his request.
Now, here he was, paint in hand, nobody around.
He got to work.
He had bee thinking about his idea for weeks, months. He tried out different paints on panels in his room, trying to see how the color of the panel would bleed though and tone the work. He brought the colored panels with him to the promenade and looked how they appeared under the lights and windows at different times of day.
Once he got started, the art flowed from his arms. He was barely a part of it. It was as if it was already there, he was just making it appear.
“Do the humans feel like this when they make art?” He thought as he worked. “Do they have these feelings of exhilaration and anxiety, of fun and worry, all blended together?”
All in all, it took Linaren nearly 5 hours to finish. Except stopping for a sip of water, or to stand up and make sure he was going in the right direction, he painted the entire time.
When he was done, he applied sealant and the accelerator so that it could be walked upon, and before the first shopkeepers came to open their stores he left.
As people streamed in, they stopped and stared at Lin's work. Everyone was amazed to see what showed up, practically instantly.
It was a massive, abstract piece titled “thoughts of home.”
It was a riot of color, high contrast, bright tones, sweeping lines and bold blacks meant to make the viewer think about what Home meant to them.
It was nearly the entire width of the promenade and a third of its length, it was by far the largest piece on Starbase.
Lin’s piece was the talk of the Starbase.
Lin was the talk of the Starbase. He hadn't signed it, but he did apply for permission to paint it, so Starbase knew who did the work, but nobody else did.
"Lin?" Starbase queried later that day. "Lin, everyone loves your work. they want to know more about you and what you did,"
Lin dropped the pad he was holding. "They...what?" he whispered.
"Lin, everyone loves your art. They want to talk to you about it."
"No" he whispered "No, I don't want to. It was just something I did. Something I needed to do. It's not anything special."
"Lin, it is special. You are special. Everyone loves it."
"I'm not an artist!" He said, his ears flat. "I just painted something."
"Lin, that is what an artist does." Starbase said kindly. "It's okay to be overwhelmed by the attention. It's even okay to not want to talk to anyone about it. I won't let anyone know who painted the piece if you don't want me to. But" They went on "I need you to know that you are an artist. You make art. You make art that you enjoy and honestly, that's enough. The fact that you also make art that others enjoy is an amazing bonus."
"People like it?" he said curiously.
"People love it." Starbase replied. "I've gotten no less than seventy five requests for the artist who made it, some for kudos, some for an interview and two from Captains who want to commission you."
"Commission me?"
"Yeah, they want to pay you to do a piece on on in their ships."
Lin stood in his room, looking at the wall. Getting paid to do something he liked doing anyway seemed like a good deal.
"Okay. I'll talk to them. Thanks Starbase. You always seem like you know what to say."
"Hah, thank you Lin, I appreciate that. I've just been around a long time, and have seen lots of strange and wonderful things."

Rottmnt x human sister reader, splinter decides she should go to a human high school so she could be around her own kind and learn more. And the bros are all pretty protective over this and are worried about her being in human school.
I’m trying out a new header style! Tell me if you enjoy it or if I should go back to the color strips!
Summary: Reader goes to school, hell ensues
TW: vomiting, a nasty panic attack in a public space, talk of animals insides
Notes: anyone mentioned in this that isn’t from Rise is an oc of mine! Please don’t use them in any works without explicit permission
Study Sessions
Tumblr media
You stared at your father as he called a family meeting, usually, these go horribly wrong. Especially as of recently, when your father decided that you, the youngest and the only girl (other than your older sister, April) should go to school…and not the school Donnie and (as of recent) Draxum have been teaching. No, human school. A human high school. You sat down at the table and hugged your knees to your chest, Donnie leaning on the wall, Raph and Leo sitting in the chairs and Mikey sitting on the counter. Splinter smiled but before he could speak Red spoke “ Pops- if this is about school I’m sure Donnie could teach her about algebra and..whatever else human kids learn! “ Donnie snarked “ I could teach her rocket science! “ Splinter nodded “ I’m sure you could purple but, she needs to be with other humans, learn to socialize “ you looked away as he slid papers on the table “ April’s parents did me a favor and enrolled her with Casey Jr! “ you felt doom and anxieties cloud your chest, you took the papers and read it, the papers were illegal documents that Donnie made…you read through each line before getting your schedule. How fun. It was seven classes a day with each class being an essential skill…apparently. What I’m the actual fuck is Home Ec.
The next few weeks came quicker than anticipated. Donnie made you and Casey matching bracelets, they were emergency bracelets (ignoring that your ninpō could just…tell them if something was wrong). And of course they were genius tech! He was making an empire after all! You did clothes shopping with April and also learned how to be socially acceptable with not only April's help, but also Sunita…and finally, the dreaded day. You and Casey stood shoulder to shoulder and stared at the high school, it was bustling, a few interesting faces but mostly everyone already knew each other. There was a larger group, of about seven people. You noted how one had a pretty sapphire necklace and a prosthetic arm that was so fluid it rivaled Donnie’s own he made for Leo. You gave Casey a hopeful smile and walked into the high school, you were immediately overstimulated. Going from a rather empty sewer to a high school was anxiety filling. A blonde haired girl bumped into you, when you turned to apologize for being in her way she immediately apologized. She was probably 5 '6 with sea green eyes and blonde hair “ my names Nyssa, you two seem a bit lost- do you need some help? “ Casey immediately nodded, Nyssa smiled and held out her hand “ oh right! They/Them! "Oops. You smiled and spoke your name, Casey following your lead. Nyssa led you two to your first class “ Your schedules are exactly the same, I didn’t know they could do that. You may get separated when testing comes up, you could be boosted into honors or lowered to just skills class “ Nyssa stopped at the first door. How amazing, math at 8 AM.
When the class finished you saw the white haired boy meet up with a brown haired girl with a tiger eye brooch. All the jewelry you’ve been seeing was very similar to Sunitas cloaking device, the brown haired girl seemed to be a senior based on how old she looked and sounded. You smiled and led Casey to your other classroom. Science.. how lovely, you knew you’d get this fine. Casey had a bit less of knowledge than you, they didn’t exactly have a need for schooling in the apocalypse. While you…well your brain has been nurtured by your older brother since the both of your youth. You could speak four different languages fluently, you could do some math that college students learn, you could do most things. Your biggest problem? American history. You learned Japanese history, your father telling you myths and legends that he learned. And you knew a bit of history from China. A sudden electrical feeling ran through you and Casey, it was simply a blue warmth, less like a fire or a sun and more like an electric heat. You were more than happy to welcome it into your ninpō, walking with it through your science class. It was simple biology, you slept through most of it with Casey and answered any questions sent your way. It left soon after second period and left you alone during third.
Then it was time for your language class…you spoke flawlessly, holding a full conversation with the teacher in Spanish before halfway switching to Japanese to see if the teacher could too. He couldn’t. Casey suddenly spoke up next to you and you turned, the two of you happily chattering in Japanese, sometimes clicking at each other before you realized that was weird, so you continued in Japanese. Yes, both you and Casey are fluent in the “ turtle language “ but shhh that doesn’t matter. Language class moved quickly and then off to fourth. You met Nyssa again, they said hello as you sat down next to Casey in biology. It was announced that you’ll be dissecting something. When you questioned what the teacher smiled “ oh! we’ll be dissecting something super exciting tomorrow, a red eared slider! “ you felt queasy. Quickly shooting up your hand to ask for the restroom, you sped off and found yourself emptying your stomach in the school hallway, a trash can in your hold, your ninpō going crazy and altering not only all of your brothers of your panicking but also a feeling…someone who was spewing mystic energy somewhere in this school, and no, it wasn’t Draxum. His mystic powers felt a certain…way. It wasn’t long before Casey found you and rubbed your back. The feeling of Raphs sturdy ninpō wrapping around your panicking one helped calm you down. You breathed and wiped your mouth with a sanitary wipe Donnie was demanding you keep with you. Slowly you and Casey went back to class, you still looked clammy and jumpy as you sat down and looked anywhere but the board that was a display of snapping turtles insides, Casey was holding it together, but barely. Like an overstuffed suitcase. The bell soon rang after that.
You made your way to lunch where you spoke to Draxum a bit and then was swept away by Nyssa. Brought to a table with the same few interesting people you’ve seen that day. When you really got closer to them, most of the jewelry was spewing mystic energy…cloaking devices. The brown haired senior was named Bellezza, there was a tan girl with short curly hair and a seal coat named Öskra, a blonde senior with blue eyes named River, she had a opal gemstone in a choker on her neck. A brown haired girl named Ésme who shared a ruby ring with the white haired boy (whom you learned was named Mason) and was the only one who didn’t buzz with mystic energy. And the last person, a black haired boy with burgundy eyes named Alexander, he had a garnet bracelet on. They all seemed to be able to pick up on your free flowing ninpō, and how it was prickling from previous panic. You were stuck close to Casey as you rested through lunch, your ninpō reaching and searching for two in particular. One that kind of felt like Mc Donald’s sprite and the electrical warmth. They both responded immediately, their ninpōs like two cats curling around a scared kitten. Your ninpō is the metaphorical kitten.
You didn’t eat lunch that day, moving into fifth period, ELA. The teacher gave you a free period and you simply slept. Your lashes attached to your cheek before you woke up with a startled noise, your eyes wide before looking up. There was your purple clad brother, staring at you as you looked at the ceiling tiles. You glared at him, before looking around and getting yourself into the roof quickly “ what are you doing here?! “ you hissed “ I’m just seeing how my dear sister is doing! and if this school is really better than my teachings! '' you sighed “ it’s super easy right now- “ Donnie laughed “ of course it is! He said confidently “ you smiled at your brother and sighed “ How’s everyone holding up at home? '' Donnie hummed “ Nardo has been fighting Raph to not just portal in this school and hunt you down. I didn’t let him come! “ you stared at him dead panned “ and you can? '' Donnie stared and then slowly backed away into the shadows of the dusty air vent. You dropped down quietly after that and slipped back into your seat, knocking dust off yourself. The bell rang again…god you were tired of that damn bell. Time for sixth period.
Next was a world history class. The teacher had turtles as a class pet, you were immediately drawn to them. Casey watched as you quietly chirped and rumbled at them. The turtles craning their heads closer to you as you made noises at them, their quiet voices responding. You quickly scampered to your seat, far away from Casey. Squished between two boys that made your ninpō scream and demand you return to Casey’s side, anxieties pulling your brain into mush. The teacher put on a video about ancient Egyptian mythology. Stuff you already knew. Your eyes grew heavy as you fell asleep, halfway through your rest the sound of a large bang startled you awake.
You whipped back with a noise and fell out of your chair. Backing up a bit, you didn’t see a classroom. You saw the tunnels, kraang infested as they chased you and your brothers. Raph missing. That was your whole mission, to retrieve your oldest brother. Leo and Casey Jr got separated. Mikey and Donnie hid in the tank. Leaving you, to get stolen away. You fumbled and looked around for something, anything to fight the kraang. Someone grabbed your arm and you started hitting it, the arm didn’t relent, it was softly pulling you away from the tunnel. The whole…incident… was traumatic for you. any really, everyone. You, Casey, Raph, and Leo got the nastiest of the flashbacks. The yokai therapist that the family got said they were classified as panic attacks. Even as the soft arms pushed you to the floor you continued hitting and thrashing, pausing when the feeling of something wrapping around your ninpō entered your brain. Your body is basically shocked to real life. Casey was holding you by your arms, you had hot tears running down your face and hurt vocal cords. You stared at him and blinked before letting out a quiet sob and leaning forward, him just holding you throughout the entirety of sixth period.
You guys didn’t go to seventh period. You just sat in the corner of a hallway and breathed, at some point the same blonde senior, River, came and sat down with you two. And after that? Mason, the albino boy, and Bellezza the senior with auburn hair joined her. They were all siblings, Casey theorized that they were wolf yokai based on how they flocked like a pack. Seventh period ended quickly, when April came to get you guys she immediately noticed the tense mood from you two, walking back to the sewers…she could only wonder how the brothers would react. When the three of you walked in, Raph was the first to notice you being back, he looked at your and Casey’s sour faces and lowered his snout so it rested on your head and hugged you, chuffing hard enough your entire body vibrated. You made small similar noises, but they were weak and halfhearted. Raph was so worried about what happened to you at school. Leo and Donnie soon returned to the main area and joined the upwards cuddle session, Casey and April being pulled into it as they all wrapped around Raph to feel his churrs, Mikey soon attaching to Raphs shells and starting to chur as well, you forgot how amazing it felt to be held like this. You took off your cloaking device and the scars that were hidden from the public eye became known. Oh how much they wanted to ask about school, why your ninpō wailed in pain, why your chirps that normally sounded so nice were half hearted and deflated

Self Aware Yandere Malleus x fem reader.
First fic, part 1
Tw: obsessive thoughts, yandere behavior, yandere character, mentions of punishment, mentions of murder/death, mentions of burning someone alive.
Oh, how much he loved watching you doing daily tasks, it was amazing, how breathtaking you were to him.
He would find a way, to drag you through worlds just to bring you there, to be able to touch you, to admire you in person, to keep you to himself. Lock you away only for himself to see.
After all, no one except for himself was deserving enough to be in your presence.
If only these foolish humans hadn't separated you from him, or he will definitely smite these heathens who were stopping him from getting what he wanted.
After all, he will always find a way to get what he wants, no matter the cost.
But that's the least of his worries when he's currently flipping through spellbook after spellbook, to no avail. That is, until he found what he was looking for. Who knew that all his hard work would pay off after spending days, hours searching in multiple libraries across the (world) country.
Y/N's Pov
After I had enough of playing, I logged off much to his dismay , and went downstairs to go get dinner. I looked in the fridge, seeing :
1. A bottle of milk
2. Water
3. Grapes
4. Apples
5. Bananas
6. Ice cream
7. Chocolate bars
And finally, what I was searching for
8. Lasagna
Grabbing the lasagna, I put it in the microwave to heat it up. After I heard a familiar ding! I grabbed it from the microwave, put it in a clean plate, got some cutlery and began eating in silence. After that, I washed the dishes and went back upstairs.
Weirdly though, I couldn't find my phone. Assuming I misplaced it, I shrugged it off and went to bed. It did take me a while to fall asleep, but I managed to doze off after staring at a wall for an hour.
Thud! I awoke to a frightening noise. drenched in cold sweat, I rose up to a sitting position on the edge of my bed. Dangling my feet off the edge, I looked around my bedroom, feeling weirdly cold while getting goosebumps. Whether from fear or from cold, I couldn't tell.
I looked around once again, just to double check, and finally, much to my dismay, realized that I had to get up to check around the house. Speaking of, did I lock the backdoor ?....Yeah...., I should..definitely go check...
I rose to my feet, slipped on some slippers, and off I went, to check the house, but first, I had to check my own room. I checked the closet, I checked under my bed, I looked out the window ; nothing.
I opened the door room and strode into the hallway. (if you don't have one, pretend like you do). I opened every single door, excluding the ones that weren't in the hallway, and checked inside each and every single room, searching every nook and cranny. After all, I wasn't one to take risks, even if it's just a sound.
Once I finished checking there and didn't find anything, I was about to lower my guard, forget about it and go back to my room, until, THUD! Another one, this time way louder, coming from downstairs...
Should I go check ?

Hi been a while since I’ve sent you a request but one was triggered today while catching up on the last few days shorts. One of my fav head cannons is that Reg is a black cat animagi. Would love to see something fluffy with that head cannon, maybe James finding out or Reg sneaking around at Hogwarts? Whatever you write will be amazing, I’m sure!
-A 💕
Hello again! I love this request so much. And this story just made me so excited as it started to form! I hope you enjoy it just the same. with love
Garden Cat (1/1) (jegulus)
Sirius and James were sitting in one of the many garden alcoves of the castle grounds. This one had a secret passage that led right up to Gryffindor tower and they were nearly certain know one knew about it since the entrance to the tower was through their dormitory room's shower.
It was silly and they only found it because James had fallen in the shower and found the latch when his head hit it.
But know it was one of their favourite spots to sneak out to at night when they couldn't sleep.
So here they were, Sirius having lighting a second cigarette and James refusing again. He didn't say anything this time because Sirius had woken up in a sweat from a nightmare and James was deep in his head about Regulus that he had been wide awake.
They were really talking. There truly wasn't much to say. Once you know the nightmare was just a dream, a lingering in your body of a horror once known, it's really all just trying to convince yourself that something that had happened to you wasn't actually real this time.
And for James well, his thoughts were also just a dream. Wishful thinking really - Regulus would never want him.
"Hey, there's that cat again," Sirius nudged James' shoulder and pointed to the slim black slinking around the bushes. It always came when they sat out there, and sometimes it would just pass through, rub against their legs, and then walk on. Other times it would lay sleepily on the wall of the garden. And the first few times it would sit and stare at them pointedly.
They could've sworn it was Minnie, and even tried to call her out the first few times, but it didn't have the right colour pattern, nor did she ever seem to know or scold them for them being out of bed.
James thought he recognizes the grey eyes staring up at him, but never could place them. They reminded him of Regulus most, but he figured he was just so smitten that he could help but see Regulus everywhere. And the cat was so loving and cuddly Remus laughed at him for 5 minutes when James told him this thought.
In the end, they figured the cat was just a cat. It did always make them feel better though. When Sirius was really distraught, it would curl up on his hand. The pressure always calmed Sirius, reminding him of how he and Regulus used to sleep holding hands when they were kids after bad days.
When James was hurting, it would jump on the wall behind him, and lean its head against his shoulder. It reminded him of the one time Regulus hugged him from behind, a moment James thought would be the beginning of something, and maybe it would have been if it hadn't been just before the summer Sirius came to live with him.
Tonight, it slinked through their legs and then hopped up on the bench between them. It's almost as if it could sense both of their upset, both of their need, but couldn't choose between them. Sirius ended up petting its back gently and James scratching its head.
They breathed together for a while, Sirius finally finishing his smoke.
"Ready?" Sirius said looking at James, who replied with the same, "Ready."
They both kissed the head of the cat, and pushed the pattern on the brick wall to get back in before climbing their way back up to bed. The cat watched them go, and then trotted off along the grounds to an entrance to the castle. Through the shadows it snuck down to the dungeons, easily falling through the fake wall, and right back up to the Slytherin dorm, turning back into himself before entering.
"Reg how do you go out every night and not get caught?" Barty asked running his eyes with sleep.
"Light on my feet I guess," Regulus said before quickly changing and falling into bed.

Inspiration: Like Real People Do by Hozier and Begin Again by Taylor Swift.
Summary: Your life was spinning out of control, you knew that. After a string of particularly shattering events, you decided it was time to start anew. With a little help from one of your Grandma's rentals, you found yourself in the small town of Alexandria. The last thing you expected was your neighbor, Rick Grimes.
TWs: none.
[[A/N: We're back babyyyy- get that cliché cooking together scene in here. Carl is significantly younger than he was in the show when Judith was a toddler, sorry. But the vibes were a young class, what can I say? I'd say he's like 7-9, making you like a 3rd grade teacher. Anyway. Enjoy :))]]
Tumblr media
His house was what you expected -homey, and well a bit like a farmhouse. You wondered just how much of this was Rick's, and if any of it was Lori's. Did she live here?
"I built it myself," he remarked offhandedly, almost like a boast but not quite.
"What, the cabinets?" you hummed, pointing to the white, well-crafted cabinetry -you could tell there was substantial work put into them, each detail could be harbored on for-
"The house," he corrected, gathering supplies through his kitchen like he'd done it a million times before. He probably had.
"The house?"
"Yeah," he laughed, looking at you with his blue eyes, playfully, "-why? You surprised?"
"Well," you looked at him -rugged from working on the farm, you guessed, "-no. It just takes a lot to build a house-"
"'Worked on it for years," he hummed, absentmindedly, "-Suppose to be a family home, before..."
"Before the divorce," you finished, softly -carefully looking at him.
He seemed a little somber, but it didn't seem quite as painful as you imagined just after the divorce. It still hurt though, whatever reason it ended still hurt.
"Well," you spoke, playfully, "-she's missing out, I'll tell you that. I mean..."
He laughed, staring down into the bowl -a bright little grin cracking along his face.
"-it's amazing in here, really."
"Thank ya," Rick laughed a bit.
"No," you echoed, "-I'm serious. This place is, god."
Your eyes swam along all the details, imagining his own hands working on it. Each wall, each slab of flooring, the archways, the ceiling-
Rick fell rather silent, a smile slipped across his face but he seemed rather bashful, "Thank you."
"Of course," you echoed, hands fidgeting at your shirt, so you set them along the bar top -not a real one but one built into his kitchen, "-can't have a man like you shit-talking yourself afterall."
"A man like me?"
"A good man," you settled on -contemplative, "-a great man even. If you aren't the cream of the crop, then I certainly feel bad for anyone else."
If you squinted, you could see a little blush rise on his cheeks -it made you feel kind of giddy.
"Thank you," he repeated, with the same sort of serious, but lighthearted, tone. He spoke almost as if it was hitting his soul, like it really meant something to him. Like your opinion mattered then.
You wondered if it did.
Clearing your throat, you approached him in the kitchen -leisurely, "Aren't I supposed to be helping?"
"Sure," Rick grinned, something telling in his eyes, "-but I do think you were doing a great job just sittin' there lookin' pretty."
"Ha, ha," you deadpanned, before scooting into his side -almost close enough to touch, "-Now seriously, how can I help?"
"I'm serious-"
"Rick," you laughed a bit, "-let me help. You want some bacon, eggs? I can do the whole works-"
Rick sighed, a bit defeated -flipping the little bit of his hair that had hung over as he stirred back to look at you with the tilt of his head, "Fine, darlin', you can do the pancakes."
He held his hands up and stepped away from the bowl, but he didn't go far -only a mere step to the right to take the bacon out of its packaging. If you focused hard enough, you feel the heat of his body but only if you focused.
Which you weren't, not on that anyway.
"Did you already put the mix in?"
He laughed, turning to you with hands at his chest -touching raw meat, "Ya never made pancakes from scratch? Did ya also get fed with a silver spoon?"
"Don't-" you started, pointing the spoon at him accusingly, "-my Mom used plastic, first of all, and I know what I'm doing, obviously. But if I didn't, what else would you put in the mix?"
He only laughed even harder.
It took you about ten more minutes and a Google search to finish the pancakes, and the whole time -because he was already finished- he leaned up against the counter and watched you.
"Here you are, loverboy," you sat the stack of pancakes on the table -they were small, but still seemed to be good in quality. They would be eaten, Rick assured you of that.
"You still on 'at?" He hummed, tilting his head slightly.
"Sure," you responded, "-you still on darling?"
"Touché," he chuckled, holding a piece of bacon towards you, which you politely refused, and then decidedly popped it into his mouth, "-let me get the kids up. One minute, just wait 'ere."
"Okay," you hummed.
You let yourself get lost in the house then, fingers tapping along the counter. The kitchen was so well-crafted, you absentmindedly decided one day that you'd ask him to build you a house.
Or you could have this one, your mind chimed, traitorous.
Waving the thought away, you slowly stepped off the tile and back into the entry. Looking down the hallway, where you saw not a soul, you ventured a little further into the house. Just a little peek wouldn't hurt.
Your footsteps echoed along the floor, as you guided yourself into the next room -the dining room. All along the walls were a slew of family photos and drawings, each with sturdy frames -treasured. You smiled for a moment, finger coming up to touch the wooden frame of a drawing -one where it was Rick (obviously by the bright blue dots where his eyes were) and a little boy by his side who was wearing a cowboy hat.
His son, you remembered.
You hadn't actually met him that first day, he'd never come to help -Rick said he was working on a "masterpiece". And seeing his work now, he most certainly could have been.
You weren't even actually sure of his name.
With that passing thought, you flickered through a few family photos -ones with Lori. It said a lot about a man when he put up photos of his ex-wife, a lot of good. Even for whatever reason they divorced, Rick kept her in their lives. That was really important.
You scanned the wall, looking for wedding photos -just to see if he was the kind to hang them. But you were left empty-handed. Huh, you guessed that made sense-
Your eyes settled on a photo, silencing your train of thought -it was Rick. He was turned to the side, in a professional sort of way, and your eyes dipped to the beige uniform and badge. Sheriff.
Well, you hummed, that must be where the hat came from.
He looked totally different -hair cut shorter and completely clean-shaven. Blue eyes still bright as ever, he suited it. That being said, you think he suited his look now better. He was very relaxed, at peace, and seemed to be doing what he wanted in life. In some sort of way, you could tell Rick was built for what he did, including being a Dad.
Your fingers extended, maybe just one little touch-
"If ya wanted a tour, darlin', you coulda just asked."
"Jesus, fu-" you spun on your heel, ears hearing the little mutters of kids so you corrected, "-Christ, Rick you scared me."
He was grinning, leaned against the doorframe with casual ease -how long had he been watching you? The stance indicated much longer than you initially thought.
"You did seem focused," he hummed -standing straight, "-what were ya lookin' at?"
You paused, lips snapping shut -no way you were telling him that. Luckily, you heard some clanging echo out for the kitchen, and settled on deflecting, "Oh, look at that, sounds like your kids are getting into something they shouldn't. You should probably deal with that."
It came out a little nervous, rambly even, but all Rick did was grin -shaking his head in disbelief. Of what, you weren't sure.
"Carl," you heard his voice echo out into the room, "-go sit at the table. Jude, stay with me, I'll put'cha in your chair."
Carl, you thought, you knew that name from somewhere.
You heard a young voice chime back, almost in a sing-songy tone, "Okay, Dad."
Before you could think too hard on where you recognized the name from, the boy walked in. His hair was just touching his shoulders, darker brown than his Dad's, but his eyes on the other hand were an exact match -bluer than blue. It was a little unnerving, actually.
"Hey," he crossed his arms, "-I know you, you're the neighbor Dad keeps talkin' 'bout."
"Uh, yeah," (he talks about you?), "-I'm Y/N, nice to meet you."
"My name's Carl," he smiled big and wide, holding his hand out to shake -cute.
You laughed, accepting the shake, "Very professional, Carl."
He grinned, proud of himself, before standing beside a chair -he seemed to know the exact one to sit at. Maybe it was where he sat every time? Now that you counted, there was exactly enough chairs for one guest (4 to be exact) -for Lori at one point, you realized.
Something in your heart tinged.
"You can sit beside me," Carl offered, even going as far to pull the chair beside him out.
"I'd be honored, Carl," you smiled, before looking back to the kitchen, "-Just let me help your Dad first. Save it for me, okay?"
He nodded -enthusiastically, sitting into his chair and holding the other's arm with a firm grip. Protective. You wanted to laugh at the sight, but bit it back -wandering back toward the kitchen.
Rick was there, organizing the plates of food, and Judith stood by his side, making relentless grabby hands. Something in your chest warmed at such a domestic sight, you let it simmer under your skin for a second.
"You need some help?"
He spun to look at you, letting out a nervous laugh, "Could ya? I can get the pancakes, and the plates-"
"Daddy," Judith pouted, "-up, up."
"Jude, just a second, okay? Daddy's gotta get the food-"
"Rick," you put a hand on his arm, "-I've got it, go sit down."
His eyes flickered to your hand for a moment -something in your fingers tingled, before connecting with your eyes, "I couldn't ask ya to-"
"You're not," you corrected, "-let me do this. Think about it. When was the last time you were served breakfast and not the other way around?"
Rick pursed his lips for a moment, reaching for one of the plates, "'s been a while, but I can help, darlin'."
You silently grabbed his wrist, and he turned his attention back to you, "Think of it as a thank you for the breakfast."
Rick sighed, and you dropped his wrist (fingertips warm and fuzzy) -stepping back from the counter with his hands in mock surrender, "Alright."
"It'll only take me a few trips," you explained, "-plus, I've already got a seat, Carl's saving it for me."
Rick wanted to say something to that, but Judith was persistent -tiny hands pulling at the fabric of his pants. With a long exhale through his nose, he scooped her up.
"Thank you," he hummed, soft and gentle and sincere.
"No problem," you smiled, teasing, "-loverboy."
He laughed a bit, a sort of flicker smoothing across his eyes. You didn't really know what it was, but it was warm, you knew that much. It made your throat run a little dry and your heart beat a little faster -you tried to school your face into something neutral.
Breakfast was... good. Not even just in the physical sense, which it very much was, but in general; it was a homey sort of experience, Carl chattering away, and Judith using a tiny fork to pick up bits and pieces of her food. Every once in awhile she'd play peekaboo with you, and you couldn't find it in yourself to stop smiling.
Carl asked you a lot of questions, but you answered them without a smile of hesitation.
Rick, though, was strangely silent. You didn't hear from him in any of the discussions, and his low gravel was decidedly absent to your ears. Pursing your lips, you chanced a glance at him and instead found him looking straight at you.
Blue eyes concise and focused, he seemed to be watching you, a little in awe. A sort of gaze that rooted you to your chair -a fondness far too much than you thought he would've had for you. Your eyes flicked back to the kids, who were both distracted by each other.
"You're really good with 'em," he spoke, slow and appreciative.
"I try," you quipped, before falling a bit more serious, "-I was really worried... when I started teaching, that I wasn't going to know how to deal with the kids."
Rick watched you for a moment, food forgotten, "It doesn't come naturally to ya? 'Sure seems like it."
"Thank you," you smiled -a little bashful, "-but you didn't see me before."
"There's no doubt in my mind 'at you were perfect, darlin'," he countered, blue eyes in a fuzzy haze -drifting across your face, "-in fact, I don't believe I can quite see a flaw."
"What," you questioned, bringing a bite to your mouth, "-with my teaching?"
"With you," he corrected, eyes still holding the contact as he slipped his coffee.
"Well," you cleared your throat -heart beating a thousand miles a second, "-there are definitely some people who would disagree with you on that."
"None of 'em 'at matter," he offered -so sincere, you almost had to blink away tears.
Your mind drifted to your city job, your... ex-fiance, and the aftermath of it all. You had really loved him. Now, you bet he had little to say about you positively.
"Darlin'?" His voice pulled you out of your head, "-Everythin' okay? Thought I lost ya there."
"I..." you started, but your words didn't come out -instead your tone trailed off into silence.
"You wanna talk about it later?" He offered -eyes flickering to his kids, warm and inviting, but not at all pressuring, "-Don't 'ave to, only if ya think it'll help."
"Would you?"
"Would I what?" He asked, seeking clarification.
"Listen," you hummed, "-it isn't very fun to just... listen. Especially about someone's problems-"
He grabbed your wrist, which sat unmoving on the table -rough fingertips brought you back, "I'd love to listen to ya. Whatever ya wanted to talk about, I'd be happy to."
"Yeah?" You offered, soft, "-You're a busy man, Rick, are you sure you can-"
"I'll make time for ya," he hummed, fingers leaving your arm -warmth in their wake, "-you're more important than that other stuff anyway, darlin'."
Your heart fluttered in your chest, but you merely noted it, "You're a farmer, don't you need to tend to your farm? Isn't that like grueling, time-consuming work?"
"I can adjust, get some stuff done faster," he muttered, "-what? Ya don't think I can do it?"
"No, I just..." your mind dipped back into the city and feeling lonely even though there were people all around you.
Rick must've noticed something flash through your eyes, as his hand hesitatingly threaded into yours on the table, "I'll make time for ya, promise."
And you somehow believed him.

⭐️ STAR TREATMENT (miguel o'hara band au)
summary: you're trying your best to adjust to being a band manager, but miguel's not making it easy... wc: 929 cw: use of y/n, mentions of alcohol/drinking, miguel is still an ass
⋆part 2⋆ masterlist
Tumblr media
after a couple weeks & a couple dozen hours of research, you were finally getting into the groove of being a band manager. the sounds of spider sense's newest song filled the rehearsal studio.
"stop, stop, stop..." dean suddenly said, the music slowly coming to a halt. "miguel, you're like 2 whole seconds ahead of everyone else, we can't play right if you're off."
"maybe you're the one that's off, dumbass, you ever think about that, huh?" miguel snapped back.
"actually..." you spoke up. "you were a little ahead, everyone else was on beat."
"cállate, this isn't your place-"
"but it is my place..." you said. "as your manager, i'm supposed to keep things running smoothly, & you're not exactly helping."
he grunted as he got up from behind his drums, approaching you & making you back up against the wall, his tall figure looming over you. "you wanna say that again?" he growled, looking down at you intensely, his eyes almost glowing bright red.
you stood your ground, staring back up at him with a gaze just as intense as his. it was hard to focus, hearing his heavy breathing, feeling not only his eyes on you, but the rest of the band's, but you refused to look away.
he finally gave in, breaking away & walking towards the door. "i need a sec," he said as he left the studio.
"alright, everyone take 5..." caleb said before walking over to you. "hey, are you okay?"
"yeah, i'm fine."
"dude... how the hell did you do that?"
"do what?"
he scoffed. "'do what?' you stood up to miguel! i'm nowhere near brave enough to do that."
you laughed a bit. "i don't know how i did it, either. it's just... i don't don't know what his problem is."
"me neither... look, [y/n], just ignore him, you're doing an amazing job as our manager & he's only gonna get in the way."
"alright, thank you, caleb," you said as you gave him a hug.
"no worries, everything will be alright..."
⋆ ⋆ ⋆ ⋆ ⋆
the band had another gig tonight, & you were supposed to arrive an hour before. you rushed through the doors that lead backstage. "sorry i'm so late!" you said, but it didn't seem to be too much of a problem, finding the members just hanging out, dean just finishing tuning up. "um, miguel, what do you think you're doing?"
"what?" he asked, taking a sip of his drink.
you walked up to him as he was sprawled out on the couch. "you have a show in 30 minutes... look, i know we're in a bar & everyone else is drinking but that doesn't mean you should be..." you scolded as you crossed your arms.
"so who you gonna call? the martini police?" he said in a sarcastic tone as he took another sip.
"c'mon, man..." dean said as he grabbed the drink away from his hand. miguel scoffed & put his hands up in defense, before starting to leave the room. "you better not be getting another fuckin' drink, mate..."
"i'm not, i'm not..." miguel insisted in an annoyed tone before leaving the room.
thankfully, miguel wasn't too drunk to perform, & they had another successful show. you walked on stage to congratulate them after they finished their set, hugging each of the members, except miguel, obviously, you figured it was best to steer clear of him.
"excuse me," a voice said, you turned around to see a short man in a button up shirt. "i'm rich webb of webb records, i've heard a great deal about your band... are you their manager?" he asked you.
holy shit. "um, yes sir, i'm [y/n] [l/n], nice to meet you..." you said as you shook his hand.
"oh, the pleasure is all mine..." he said with a smile. "all the amazing things i've heard about all of you are true... the way your music sounds so classic yet so unique, a creative blend of so many rock subgenres with genius lyrics, it's unbelievable! they way you use your musical talents to bring out the best in each other's sounds, & the way your personalities are so different yet blend so well together creates such an incredible stage presence, this truly was one of the best shows i've seen in awhile."
"really? you liked it that much?" caleb asked, you could practically see sparkles in his eyes.
"yes... in fact, i liked it so much, i want to offer you a record deal..." all of your mouths fell open. "i'd like to work on recording an album & maybe setting up a tour, i've seen you have quite the fan base across the country for a band who just plays small gigs... but you have serious potential, you guys are going places... so, whaddya say?"
"are you kidding? of course we're accepting!" caleb exclaimed, going up to rich & hugging him for a second before quickly letting go. "sorry, got too excited..."
"it's fine... so we'll be meeting again so to discuss details & work out a contract, we can schedule that soon, here's my card." rich said as he handed you his business card.
"thank you so much, sir, i'll look at my schedule so we can meet as soon as possible..." you said as you shook his hand again.
"perfect, i'll see you soon," he said as he waved back at us before leaving. after he left, we all turned to each other with wide eyes.
"boys, we're goin' on tour!" caleb announced & i smiled, i couldn't be happier.

Tags: Cannon au, fem! reader, Commander reader, Brother Erwin, Major Character death, Depressed Reader, Comfort from both sides, Mentions of Alcohol, Self starvation mentioned
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
Synopsis: After the death of Erwin, reader takes over the position that her twin brother used to hold for 5 long years and trys to finish what her brother couldn't. During that time, she shuts down and her close friends take notice. Even her boyfriend, Levi Ackerman, takes notice.. They both end up talking some things out and it ends up with both reader and Levi comforting eachother as a couple.
A/N: this was all inspired by someone who I consider to be my insperation and the person to push me in the right direction to start my writing carrer. I'd just like to say that they are amazing and you should go follow them! @m-jelly \( ̄︶ ̄*\))
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
I sat down in his chair with a small emerald green charm in my hand, rotating it in my hand and tracing it with my index finger. I saw his face in it every time I stared into the gem. His laugh haunted my dreams and his scent was still on his uniform coats and cloak. I couldn't stand to look at his portrait that hung on the right wall of my bedroom.
I everytime I sat at the commanders table with all the other captains, I wouldn't eat... no I couldn't eat. It made me feel guilty that he wasn't here. Guilty that he couldn't eat the food that he loved, talk to the people he was close with, be there for the advancement of the cause that he commited his life to, and do the things that he loved... I was the embodiment of what he wasn't here for. It hurt to know that he couldn't be here for each advancement that he wanted.
I knew that it would hurt him to see me in this state, but I couldn't help it. I couldn't sleep because every time that I tried, I'd just relive that horrible moment. I cried every waking moment that I wasn't infront of a crowd, friends, and cadets that now look up to me. His dreams would never come true for him just made it worse for me.
"Commander Y/n, are you okay?" I looked up from my cold steak that was on my plate and saw Cadet Arlert standing infront of me. I looked at him with tired eyes and simply nodded at him, his ocean eyes looked over me and nodded swiftly as he left for his seat. Ocen eyes... heh...
I sighed and set my cold food infront of Cadet Braus and left the dining hall. My head was swimming with thoughts of him. Each breath, each step, and each movement of my 3DM gear was spent thinking of strategies and him. His movement and ideas were nothing but there as I progressed.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
"Captain Levi and Section Commander Hange, I think something is wrong with Commander Y/n. She's been skipping meals, staying up late, and has looked out of it." Hange and I looked at eachother as we sighed. Hange looked like she was going to say something, but stopped.
"Thank you Arlert, you are dismissed. please gather the rest and send them off to bed." I spoke as I sipped my black tea. Arlert saluted as he walked off to get his squad mates to bed.
"Levi, what are we going to do about her? We both made a promise to Erwin that we'd make sure she'd be okay... What are we going to do?" Hange asked while sighing. They took a sip of whatever alcohol they has tonight. I shook my head and motioned for them to pass their cup. They gave me the cup and I took a sip, much to their suprise.
"I'm not sure, maybe I can go talk to her later..." I sighed while handing her the cup back. They nodded and started laughing a little bit. "What's so funny shitty glasses?" I questioned.
They laughed a bit more and said, "You could use this to confess, you know they like you, ya short stack!" They cackled some more as I blushed. "Shut the fuck up, just give me another sip of whatever the fuck you're drinking!" I shouted as I grabbed their glass and took another sip of the burning liquid.
I sighed as I got up from our shared table and made my way to her office. She was my concern right now, not the tipsy grunt that I associate with. "Alright, I'm out. Don't get to drunk and remember to clean up your mess..." I yelled out while walking out the door.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
I was laying on the floor of my bedroom, wrapped in his cloak. It hurt but I wanted, no needed a hug from him. I'd like a two arm hug but I'd kill for his one arm hug... I scrunched up into a ball and sobbed into his cloak, each body shaking sob just made me feel worse.
"Come on, sad sap... Get up..." I cried as I heard his words from the past. "Y/n, please get up. You'll be okay... even when creation comes to die, you can find me in the Sky... Upon the last day, you'll be okay." I sobbed louder as I imagined his hand resting in my head.
"No... No Erwin... I won't be okay! I'm working myself half-way to death, it should've been me that got crushed..." I wailed into the fabric of his hood. My head was pounding into the floor as I shook. "You're not here, you'll never get to talk to anyone... I won't get to have that hug you promised me before you left..." I squeazed my eyes shut as I felt foot steps on the floor infront of me.
"Erwin... Please... I'm not in the mood for you to taunt me, please go away..." I whimpered as I turned over on my other side. I felt someone put their hands on my head. "Erwin, please stop! I know you're not here, you're with papa!" My voice quivered as I took a loud shakey breath. "So please... Go be with him and leave me to rot..."
I felt someone pick me up and hold me. "It's not Erwin N/n, please look at me..." I heard them speak softly. I looked up at his steel grey eyes and tried not to cry more. "Levi... I'm sorry you had to see me this way, I-i'm sorry..." I whimpered looking away from his face out of shame.
"Don't be sorry, we get it if you're not okay. You lost your brother for the walls sake, It's okay N/n..." I cried some more as I grabbed fist fulls of his shirt. I felt him grab the back of my head as he comforted me. I felt him start to shake as he held me.
I wrapped my arms around him as we both cried. "We'll be okay... as the stars align I hope you'll take it as a sign, that you'll be okay... Everyday we'll be okay..." I sang quietly from a song that he used to sing to me.
"Levi... We'll be okay..." I whispered as we held each other while crying. I felt him shakely breathe against my neck. "I know we will..." he whispered back

cw: cheating, manga spoilers (dont read if u havent finished the manga yet ty!), ooc mikey??
lowercase intended
-
to say mikey was the love of your life was an understatement. you two had grown up together, from snot nosed toddlers to reckless teenagers, through the thick and thin. to others, you guys were inseparable and it seemed inevitable that you would end up marrying him.
at least, that’s what you thought. it seemed that 18+ years of knowing each other and over 5 years of dating meant nothing to mikey. as you stared down at the instagram post, a wave of nausea washed over you. there he was, the love of your life, in all his glory, staring up at you from your phone. in the picture, he was sitting next to a gorgeous person, hand wrapped possessively around their waist. they seemed to be the exact opposite of you. to make matters worse, mikey seemed happier, too. he was smiling, and the usual dark bags under his eyes were missing. his whole persona was different. he seemed to succumb to the dark impulses around you. but the post showed no sign of dark impulses. was his other partner so amazing that they could keep a check on mikey’s dark impulses? something you couldn’t even do? was this why he had cheated? these questions gnawed at you, and it made you want to cry even more.
your heart felt like it had been split into two. mikey had cheated and by the looks of it, he had absolutely zero remorse. the post had proved it in a way. he had no problem with his other partner posting him on social media. yet, when you wanted to post a picture with it? it was a hard no. he had mumbled excuses along the lines of “not wanting the police to connect him to bonten” or that “everyone knows we’re together, there’s no need.” everything that he rejected appeared to be an exception for them.
you had stuck with mikey, despite him succumbing to the dark impulses after he had lost shinichiro, emma and baji. you had stuck with mikey, despite him trying to push everyone away. so why wasn’t that enough? why were you enough?
when mikey returned to your shared apartment that night, you couldn’t bear to look at him. to look at his handsome face, the face you had loved for the longest time. you sat montionless on the bed, tears staining your cheeks. mikey didn’t seem to notice your pain, walking right past you with a simple, “i’m back love.” the word ‘love’ drove you over the cliff. you let out a loud sob. how could he call you that after cheating on you for god knows how long. more tears began pouring out, clouding your vision. how could he call you love when how could he call you love when his neck bore a deep purple hickey?
you closed your eyes and took a deep breath, preparing yourself.
“let’s break up mikey.”
mikey stopped in his tracks.
“what?” he asked with a confused look on his face. “where is this coming from?”
“i know.” you say simply. “i know you’ve been cheating on me.”
he doesn’t say anything so you continue. “i saw their instagram post mikey.”
the tears begin flowing again. mikey stood there, face impassive. he took a deep breath before saying,
“okay?”
this simple word made you flip your switch. “sorry? is that all you have to say? we’ve been dating for five years and that’s all you have to say? you cheated on me mikey!”
he shrugs. “i know”
“you can’t even saying sorry?” you yell. “sorry doesnt even cut it but that’s better than fucking saying okay”
“what do you want me to do? i wasn’t trying to hide it anyway. you just took too long to find out.”
angry tears make its way down your cheeks. “fuck you mikey, fuck you for cheating on me, fuck you for making me think that we were going to last, fuck you for making me love you. i hate you, i hate you, i hate you.” you collapse against the wall of your shares apartment, curling into a ball.
The End 😊😊
i hate this and dont wanna finish this so i ended it

I'm BACK and I finished watching daily dose of sunshine few weeks ago. I really really loved this k-drama, I'd say its quite heavy in contrast to the title 😦 I'd definitely say it's must watch of 2023 (I'm going to make a list) but if you know you struggle mentally if you watch this show, do take breaks in between especially in the later episodes. I finished under 3 days and it was the biggest mistake of my life honestly. It leaves you feeling empty and after the end you just stare at the wall or just bawl your eyes out there's no in between...
NOW unto opinions:
> I think Park Bo Young's character had more chemistry with the best friend rather than Mr IBPoppingFingers
> From episode 5 it honestly gets so relatable and so I think it's safe to say the writing was amazing 👏
> Park Bo Young's acting. That's it. She's one of those actresses that eats her role every single time...
>I did say in the first place that the ship wasn't my thing but I also feel like romance shouldn't have been a THING anyway but honestly I liked the fact it took a backseat in the k-drama, it took a more natural approach!

Just Acting
Tumblr media
18+ advised for this story | chapters in master list
Chapter Two
"Hi I'm Y/n Y/l/n, and I'm auditioning for Delilah Reign." Nerves chew on your gut as you greet the casting directors. Their stone cold eyes seem to be burning into your soul. Well, actually they seem pretty chill, but the flip-flop in your stomach is making it seem so much worse.
You read a few of the lines, trying to get into character as much as possible given the short script you have. You keep your eyes on the casting people's, only looking down occasionally.
A few of the casting directors take notes as you're finishing up. They give you a few pointers and ask you to read one line again.
"Thank you," the red headed lady in the middle says.
"Thank you," you respond, leaving the room. You're not sure if you should feel proud, because maybe that would jinx it, but you're pretty confident that you did well. But maybe not.
Delilah is a lot like you in some ways, work obsessed, pretty professional, and obviously she looks like you (lol).
The show was pretty open about the type of actress they wanted for this role... not many specifics were given except the fact that the role was female. Which was pretty good for you, because you're tall and kinda chubby... which your girlfriends just call thick. Which usually isn’t the type people go for with casting. People of all different looks auditioned for Delilah.
You sigh, the knock on your trailer door disturbing you from your reading. You open it reluctantly. "I swear to God. At least you learned to knock."
Aisha states at you in shock.
"Sorry I thought you were Gubler... come in."
With a laugh, she sits beside you on the couch, handing you a cup of coffee.
"Thank you."
"Man you really hate Matthew don't you?"
"I don't hate him... “ you say, “I just strongly dislike him to the point where I'd punch his head through a wall given the opportunity."
Aisha laughs at that. "Damn girl." The two of you chat about random things like work, and social lives, and interviews. The two of you don't have very many scenes together, in fact you've only been on screen at the same time twice, but that didn't stop you from becoming friends. Occasionally, you'd hang out on your days or hours off, or just chill together if you were on set the same days.
Every once in a while, the girls would have a girls' night, and you've been invited a couple times. Which felt amazing because you've only been an official cast member for 8 episodes.
"Well I should probably go, I have to be down there in 5."
"Bye, Y/n. Have fun with your scene with Matthew," Aisha says laughing.
"Don't remind me, Aish."
You walk down to the studio door, passing all the random equipment and set pieces and rooms. You and Matthew were filming outside today and then in a little cafe. Yes, you shoot in a real cafe. Sometimes it's nerve wracking filming in public places because people are just staring at you while you have a camera in your face.
Before you make it to the door, you hear footsteps jogging to catch up with yours. You know who it is immediately. "Heyyy."
"Hey, Gubler." You liked to call him by his last name, it seemed less friendly that way.
"You ready to shoot with me?" He asks, wiggling his eyebrows.
"Actually-" you start to say before you’re rudely interrupted.
"Of course you are, you adore me."
"Actually, I can barely stand you, but sure, keep believing your little fantasy."
"Fantasy eh?" Matthew winks at you.
You roll your eyes, fighting the urge to insult him again. Normally you were a nice person, especially to people you work with, but Matthew really knew how to push your buttons.
When you all arrive at the filming location, after an annoying car ride with Matthew, the hair and makeup crew fix your short brown hair that's being blown all over the place by the wind. They touch up yours and Gubler's makeup really quickly, then finally you're ready to shoot.
In the cafe, your characters are talking over coffee.
"I've always been pushed into this by my dad. He wanted me to be a strong woman, mainly because he didn't have a son. I just sometimes think I'm not strong enough for this. I get so overwhelmed and... I don't know."
"I think you're pretty strong, Delilah. You're handling work that isn't yours as well."
She gives him a small smile. "Thanks."
later:
"And cut."
You're finally finished for the day. You've been getting more scenes every episode, and you're not sure how they're going to proceed with your character's plot.
After taking off wardrobe, you get settled in your shorts and oversized t shirt. You slip on your white sneakers and head out of your trailer.
No one is on set except the crew and you and Matthew, because everyone was finished for the day. Actually, the week. You'd just wrapped episode 8, and had the weekend off.
"Heyyyy," Matthew says, again.
"What now?”
"Damn, grumpy. I just wanted to tell you to have a good weekend."
"Oh. Thanks, uh you too.”
"See I can be thoughtful,” he says.
"It's kinda creepy, actually. Normally you're a huge dick."
"Did you just tell me I have a huge dick? That's very inappropriate work place talk, Y/n!” Matthew uses is painfully dramatic voice again.
"Do you have an off button?" You ask, face in a slight scowl.
"Nope. But I have an on button," he winks, another dumb grin on his face.
You roll your eyes at him yet again, and head to your car. You drive to your apartment and heat up a frozen tv dinner.
You hardly cook, because one, you don't really know how, and two, who has time for that?
The microwave beeps, letting you know the chicken alfredo is ready. You sit down with the food and a glass of water.
For some reason, be home alone makes you think too much. You miss your family, but you hate how your dad still doesn't take your acting career seriously.
You miss your baby sister, who isn't a baby anymore. She was born when you were 16, and she was young when you left home. Now, she's 17 and a senior in high school.
You miss when thing were simpler and you didn't have to pay for things on your own. Especially since everything in California is so damn expensive.
You shake yourself out of your mind, pushing away the self doubt and other thoughts that like to sneak attack their way into your mind.
After you clean the plastic tray of its contents, you sit on the couch and turn the tv on to one of your favorite shows. Time passes, and you fall asleep on your couch, which has become a pretty normal thing for you. The sound of bugs outside creeks with the wind as you sleep.
the first few chapters are to set up the story, i’m sorry if they’re not that interesting

Whumptember 2023, Day 5
“What do you want me to do?”
Owed a favor | Whispered conversation | Sneaking around
The Bee’s Whumptember Masterlist
CW: alcohol, mentioned kidnapping, mentioned potential character death, mentioned gun
Continued HERE
-------------
Caretaker’s eyes shifted warily as they scaled the walls of the enemy base, rope burning in their hands and they hauled themself up, one after the other. This would all be for nothing if they got caught. Less than nothing. They wouldn’t be of any use to Youngest if they were captured, and that was on top of the agony they’d have to endure at the hands of Villain and the rest of their team if they were captured. So don’t get caught, Leader had reasoned. As if it were that simple. As if that weren’t the most obvious thing in the world. But Leader believed in them, and Youngest needed them, so here they were, freezing their ass off on the wind- and snow-swept window ledge of their most formidable foe, praying to God that they could plead well enough to the only person who could truly help save Youngest’s life.
They pressed their hand into the glass, using the friction and sticking frost to pull open the suspiciously unlocked window. No time to dwell on that, Caretaker supposed. They dove in through the small gap and landed into a silent forward roll across the hardwood floor, only to immediately be greeted by the sound of a glass shattering as it was dropped by shocked hands, followed by a long string of curses as the dropper of the glass stared at Caretaker with abject horror.
“Caretaker–” Spy hissed. “What in the actual fuck are–”
A soft knock at the door. “Medic? Everything alright?” Villain called.
Spy glared at Caretaker, commanding them to hide with a sharp nod that even Leader themself wouldn’t question. Caretaker looked around frantically, before spotting a lovely little wooden wardrobe. That’d do.
“Yeah, everything’s– great,” Spy yelled back, speech slurred. “Jus’… dropped the whiskey bottle. Just a little. Probably too much to drink– Imma gonna… gonna… jus’ clean this up an’ head to bed…”
The door creaked open. “You need–”
“Don’t come in!” Spy leaped over to the door and slammed it shut with their full body, back pressed into the painted wood. “I’m not decent!”
A pause. Caretaker bit their lip inside the wardrobe, cursing themself for not choosing any better hiding spot. The door couldn’t even close all the way!
“...alright then.” Villain’s voice finally came through the door, taken aback. “You’re a very strange drunk, Medic… I’ll leave you to it, just put on some clothes before you deal with the glass, yes?”
Spy groaned dramatically, as if Villain had just asked them to egg the neighbor kid’s house. “--fffffff-ine…”
“Thanks. No pity if you’re hungover tomorrow, yeah? Drink some water and get to bed.” Villain knocked on the door twice in lieu of a farewell, and footsteps could be heard creaking down on the hardwood floors, slowly getting quieter as Villain walked away.
Spy slammed open the doors of the wardrobe, very clothed and very sober. “You better have an amazing explanation for this, Caretaker,” they whispered with enough venom to knock out an elephant. They yanked Caretaker out and picked up a towel from where they had just been sitting, turning on their heels toward the broken glass. “Amazing, perfect, justifiable, and totally not insane reason for almost blowing my cover and getting the both of us killed.”
“They have Youngest,” Caretaker whispered urgently, grabbing another piece of fabric at random and following closely behind Spy. Spy didn’t even flinch as they threw their own towel widely over the glass and started collecting it all into the thick cloth.
“Okay. And?”
“That’s all you have to say?!” Caretaker hissed, soaking up the spill with what they now realized was an old t-shirt. “No ‘where?,’ no ‘are they alive?,’ no ‘how can I help save my teammate from being tortured to death?’...”
“What do you want me to do?” Spy finished placing all of the glass into the towel, then trudged to the other side of the room and threw the entire thing away. 
“Not sure if you noticed, Caretaker, but they think I work for them. And they need to continue thinking that I work for them until I can finish my directive,” Spy nudged Caretaker out of the way with their foot, kneeling down beside them and finishing the job of drying the spill themself. “And helping one of our captives escape is a wonderful way to make sure all my hard work goes straight down the toilet. Then you’ll have two captives that need saving–” They threw the now alcohol-soaked t-shirt into the hamper across the room. 
“--If they don’t put a bullet in my head right there and then.”
“I’m not asking you to save them, idiot,” Caretaker said through gritted teeth. “Just… keep an eye on them, please? You’re their medic. Maybe say they’ve had enough early if the team is torturing them, or, or keep them in the med bay for as long as possible with an unknown illness, or discredit any information they give, or misdiagnose their power so Villain underestimates them, and don’t shoot them if you have the chance to, and on that note, don't let Villain kill them. Just–...” They waved their hands around in front of them frantically, pleading. 
“Do something. Don’t just stand by and watch, and for the love of God, don’t join in. Please.”
Spy stared at Caretaker for a long time, face excruciatingly unreadable. “I acknowledge your request for me to help Youngest. Now get the fuck out.” Spy grabbed the collar of Caretaker's shirt and shoved them toward the open window. 
“Is that a yes?”
Spy spun Caretaker around to unequivocally ask if they were purposefully trying to kill them, only to find Caretaker's hopelessly worried puppy-dog eyes staring back at them. Always with the puppy-dog eyes. They threw their head back with a groan, fingers pinching the bridge of their nose.
“That’s an ‘I’ll do what I can without compromising my mission.’” Spy stated. “Now leave. I can’t have you getting hurt too.”
Caretaker let out a sigh of relief as they leaped up onto the window ledge. They crouched down to fiddle with the rope. “Thank you, Spy. Seriously, it means a lot." Caretaker stared down into the frozen white dust-filled abyss below them. "See you later. I missed you.”
Spy’s shoulders sagged a little. “I missed you too. Send my regards to the team.”
“Will do.” Caretaker saluted to Spy. They pulled on their repelling rope to make sure it was secure, and they were just about to swing back out, when–
“Oh, and Caretaker?” Spy called out from behind them. 
“Ye–” Caretaker turned around, but before they could react, Spy reached up and yanked their head downward by the back of the neck, desperately shoving their lips onto theirs. Caretaker almost pulled back from the shock and force of it, only before fully closing their eyes and leaning down harder into the kiss. Caretaker's breath shuddered hot on Spy’s face as their hand grasped at the back of Spy’s head, the other pulling them in tighter from the spot it found nestled in the arch of their back, holding Spy ever closer so the moment never had to end. 
Spy finally pulled back and gazed into Caretaker’s eyes, breathless. “Don’t get caught.”
“I could say the same to you,” Caretaker chuckled lowly. “Please.”
Spy scoffed and rolled their eyes, pushing Caretaker's chest lightly. “I won’t.”
Caretaker stood and backed up to the very edge of the ledge, grinning from ear to ear. “See you on the other side, Spy.” They grabbed the remaining slack of their rope and vaulted backward off the edge of the windowsill, pumping their fists and grinning like a 5-year-old at a birthday party. 
“That we will,” Spy muttered. They poured themself another glass of whiskey, a real one this time, as they gazed at the spot where Caretaker disappeared.
“One way or the other…”

BNHA Boys as Normal College Students
Pairings: Bakugou Katsuki x Fem!Reader
Genre: one-shot, bnha imagines, college au, fluff, crack, humor, sfw
Warnings: language, suggestive? idk lol
A/n: hey everyone, I promised I’d try to upload a loooooot right? So here it is! Btw this isn’t from my drafts. This will be a series (ig, lol?) and it will feature some of the BNHA boys that I’m fond of. I just finished creating two episodes of this from scratch—in two hours (idek how I managed to do it, but nonetheless, so proud of myself) In addition, I’ll be gradually updating this short series. (here's to hoping I’ll get to finish them *cries* I’m also thinking of having atleast 4-5 episodes with different characters each) This plot’s chaotic, SO CHAOTIC. So read at your own risk. This contains grammatical errors since it is not proofread. Mwah.
Characters are in college
Tumblr media
Episode 1: Bakugou Katsuki (The Drummer)
“Come on, y/n! It’s Fridaaaaay!” Ochaco whined as Momo tugged your forearm trying to convince you to come to them at a newly opened bar a few blocks away from school.
“I told you guys that I have to pass.” You smiled sheepishly and guiltily knowing you have been extremely busy for the past week and wasn’t able to go out with your best friends that much. “I have a lot of upcoming exams this week.” You added.
“I know you’re busy and all but we’re just gonna look at the place real-quick!” Momo spoked as she continued tugging at your arm.
“Please, please, pleaseeee, come with us, y/n! Promise we’ll leave after 15 minutes!” Ochaco added.
“I heard there’s a new band performing so we gotta go there, y/n!” Momo tugged some more.
“—WE’LL EVEN TAKE YOU HOME OURSELVES!” they both said in unison.
You stared at Ochaco’s futile attempt at a puppy-eyes and to Momo’s hold on your arm.
And after a few seconds of staring at them back-to-back, you gave up and just groaned. “Okay, fiiiiine.”
The girls squealed and gave each other a knowing look.
You knew that these two won’t take no for an answer and the earlier you get there, the earlier you get to go home.
The three of you arrive at the newly built and opened bar and you’re not gonna deny that the place looks amazing. Since it was opening night, the tables were full but the fact that the three of you were able to go in smoothly and has a table reserved made you question if Momo knew the owner.
Ofcourse she does. Momo has a lot of connections.
The three of you were already seated comfortably in the table—which you realized was one of the front tables so you have the nice view of the stage. Momo ordered drinks and you denied her offer saying you don’t wanna get home wasted. You need to be sober when you get home since you still have a lot of topics to review.
You were busy sipping the cold water you ordered, scanning your surroundings and spotting a few familiar faces, enjoying the ambiance of the place, and vibing to the soft background music—when the lights of the bar blacked out and the music shut off. Only the small night lights attached to the walls, illuminated the place.
Some people let out small-amused gasps in the way that the bar was trying to introduce its performers, since that strategy made everyone focus on the stage.
Then, the spotlight moved right in the center of the stage—but no one was there since the stage were closed by the curtains. But the fact that you can hear a small murmur of sounds—gradually increasing—made you turn towards the stage in curiosity as you watch the curtains open, only to reveal a band you’re not familiar with.
They looked like a new band, one was in the piano, one was using the electric guitar, one has the acoustic guitar, and one was standing in the center with the microphone on—whom you assumed is the vocalist. They seemed like a common type of band, but the way their faces were hidden with a full-faced masks on, intrigued the people inside the bar—including you.
There was a small intro of the electric guitar, then the piano followed, and next the acoustic guitar—before you knew it, the vocalist and her band we’re already playing good music. The band has this certain type of vibe that you like and the fact that their lyrics, their rhythm—plus the vocalists’ amazing voice—got you hooked and bobbing your head to what seems like an original song of theirs.
Momo and Ochaco started screaming in glee as they also vibed to the song. And just before the song reached what it seems like its chorus, the dancefloor of the bar was already packing with grinding bodies. It was a good thing that the stage was moveable—you were surprised as well—and it now stood at a higher level compared to the dance floor so you can still get a nice view of the stage as the band members continued to produce amazing music.
“Come on, y/n! Let’s dance!” Ochaco tugged your arm. She didn’t even have to tell you twice since you already followed her to the dance floor since you liked the band’s songs. Momo followed you two and danced with the crowd.
“It looks like that 15 minutes is up, y/n!” Momo shouted through the loud music.
“I think we’ll have to extend for another 45 minutes.” You grinned and Momo grinned back as you three jumped, shouted, and enjoyed the music.
You three were busy enjoying yourselves when all of a sudden, an unfamiliar guy who looks like he goes to the same school as you, approached you. “Wanna dance?” he asked you with a smirk on. And he didn’t even hide the way he scanned you up and down before stopping on to your face.
“Dude, we’re already dancing.” You snorted and the two bursted into a fit of giggles as you urged Momo and Ochaco to move near the front of the dance floor, leaving the guy.
“You didn’t have to be mean, y/n.” Momo laughed.
“We we’re already dancing. What kind of question is ‘wanna dance’?” You cringed, remembering the guy’s futile attempt to flirt. Ochaco just laughed and playfully smacked your shoulder.
The three of you resumed dancing, the music even louder than before since you three were nearer to the stage now. You liked the next song since it was a bit sultry but there was a playful tinge to it so you just let your body do the moves that you felt were natural to you. 
Momo and Ochaco were right for trying to convince you to come. You definitely needed this break after being stuck at your room for days and never even getting the time to rest or party.
You were busy dancing to the beat of the music when a pair of hands snaked their way behind you and surrounded your waist. “Seems like your waist is missin’ something, babe. They need my hands around ‘em.”
You immediately jerked the hands away. “Wtf, get your hands off me, you perv.” You turned and gave the unfamiliar guy a sharp glare—hating the fact that he touched you—only to see him looked amused.
“I like feisty girls, y’know.” He winked and tried to touch you one more time.
“Fuck off.” You cursed. 
Why can’t some guys take no for an answer?
“Aww, don’t be like that sweethea—” The guy’s voice was interrupted by a sudden loud static sound making almost everyone’s ears hurt and stopped dancing. The band’s music stopped almost stopped right after the static sound.
What the?
The people started murmuring, confused what’s wrong. The stage went back down, so it was now on the same level of the dance floor.
“Touch my girl one more time shit-face, and I’ll blast you to pieces.” The voice boomed and echoed all throughout the bar, making everyone to be even more confused. 
Everyone was scanning the crowd looking for the owner of the voice. You were confused as well.
Why did the music stop?
You looked to where the voice was coming from—only to realize that in the back corner of the stage, right behind the vocalist, is where the drum set was.
How come you never noticed that earlier?
And in it sat the drummer who wore his full-mask on—a mic in his hand—and the blonde spiky hair that was sprouting out of his mask, wasn’t hard to miss.
