Happy belated Thanksgiving🦃! I wanted to post this before or on the actual day, but time got the best of me. Hope you guys like it!
Pairing: Chris EvansxBlack Reader
⚠️: None, all fluff☺️!
Following the delicious smell of ham, turkey, dressing, and other Thanksgiving dishes, River’s stomach growls peeking on his tip toes over the table at the various foods spread across it. Ever since the three of you flew in the day before, he couldn’t wait to dig into all his favorite foods and eat until his little belly felt swollen.
“Mommy, can we eat now?,” he asks as you walk by with yet another dish in your hands to put on the table.
“Not yet, but everything’s almost done. I’ll come get you when it’s time okay?”
“Kay.” Sighing, he makes his way to the living room hearing his cousins going back and forth as they shout out random directions leaving him confused.
“What’s that?,” he asks standing beside his two older cousins, Nick and Kira, sat on the leather ottoman.
“Fortnite,” Nick answers not taking his eyes off the screen in front of him. “No! Don’t go that way, meet me by the lake.”
Watching the animated characters jumping and running about as they sporadically built things to hide in, he found himself drawn to the screen and wanting to participate himself since they seemed to be having so much fun laughing and high-fiving as a different character disappeared.
“Can I play?”
“Um maybe later River, we still got a while before this game ends,” Kira answers taking a break to push her glasses higher on her nose before returning to her hurried button mashing as an armed group approaches them.
“When’s that?”
“We don’t know.”
“Why?”
“Because-dang! Quick revive me!”
“I am! River go sit down, we gotta focus. Plus your mom and dad may not even want you playing since you’re too little.”
“Am not,” he pouts crossing his arms across his chest.
“Are too, you’re only four. This game is for big kids like us,” Nick countered making River even more upset.
“I’m big boy too!”
“And I’m tired of y’all going back and forth!,” another one of his older cousins, Mary, interjects from the couch with her feet propped up. “I’m having an important conversation over here.”
“What important conversation? You’re just talking to your boyfriend,” Kira teases making her roll her eyes before placing the phone back up to her ear.
Clearly his cousins wouldn’t be letting him play anytime soon.
So with a huff, he turns around heading back to the kitchen until he hears groans and cheers erupt from the basement, where those who weren’t helping in the kitchen watched the football game.
Carefully stepping down the steps while holding onto the railing, he finds his dad, oldest cousins, uncles, and some aunts all spread out in chairs and on the sectional couch chatting about the last play as they drank from red plastic cups.
“Hey bubs!,” Chris smiles patting his knee for him to join him. “You okay?”
Lifting his arms so he could be picked up, he shrugs his shoulders playing with his father’s bigger hand.
“What’s wrong?”
“I can’t play.”
“Play what?”
“For tight.”
“For tight?,” he asks raising an eyebrow. “What is that?”
“A game daddy. You jump and and hide and go bye.”
Before he could press any further on this very unique sounding game, the loud cheers steal his attention as he looks up to see a 49ner’s player run an intercepted ball in for a touchdown making him groan and River cover his ears from the commotion.
“Chris you might as well give it up man, the Pats not coming back anytime soon,” your younger brother, Carter, smirks sipping from his cup.
“I wouldn’t get too cocky yet. Remember we’re the top team at second half comebacks,” he retorts matching his smirk.
“You mean you were the top team. Now that your precious Brady is gone y’all haven’t had too many comebacks.”
“Okay yea losing Brady was a bit of a hit, but we’re still good! We just gotta get use to the new quarterback.”
“Hm are you really still good though?,” Carter asks cocking his head to the side.
“Like the niners are doing any better! You have the same record as us!”
Rather than sit and listen to his dad and uncle argue over teams, he hops down eventually meeting you halfway up the steps.
“Food ready now?”
“Yes sweetheart everything’s ready and you can eat,” you giggle watching him excitedly bounce up and down. “And everyone else in here, food is done! Come eat!”
“Mommy, I sit with you and daddy?”
“No bubs, you sit at the kids table with your cousins remember? Like last year.”
“I want to be with you and daddy.”
“Sorry love, there’s not enough room at the big table. Daddy and I won’t be far away though.”
Following you up the stairs and to the dining room, he wished the kid table never existed. All of his cousins were older than him by at least six years, so he felt alone as they tapped on their phones and told jokes only they understood. Not that they completely ignored him, it’s just their conversation with him wasn’t as long as the conversations they had with each other. As he watched you, Chris, and the other adults talking and laughing he wasn’t really in the mood for food anymore and wished the three of you were back at the hotel, or home even.
“Ma, we’re going outside to play!,” one of his cousins excitedly announced as they rose from their seats at the kids table barely pushing their chairs in.
“Aht! Did y’all throw away your trash first?,” his aunt Jackie asked making Kira sigh clearly wishing they could be outside already.
“Yes.”
“Alright go ahead, and be careful,” she answers as the older kids rush outside.
“Mommy I play too?,” River asks walking over to squeeze between you and Chris.
“Sure sweetie. After I’m finished we can go play.”
“No mommy, play with them.”
“Oh,” you reply looking outside to see the bigger kids, and a couple of the adults splitting up into teams as a football was casually tossed back and forth. “I don’t know River, they’re playing football and-,”
“I like football!,” he beams making you giggle.
“I know bubs, but you’re smaller than your cousins and I don’t want you getting hurt.” At your words, his smile falls and head hangs slightly. You, his dad, and even his grandparents always told him how he was such a big boy now, so why he couldn’t do these things not only confused him, but made him frustrated.
“But I’m a big boy...”
Turning on his heels, he stomps to the living room throwing himself on the couch hiding his head in one of the furry throw pillows beside him.
“You know mommy is just trying to look out for you right River?,” he hears as Chris approaches his spot on the couch, eventually squatting down beside him.
“Yes,” he sniffles turning to look at his father with red tinted eyes.
“Your cousins play a little rougher than what we play in the yard at home bud. That’s probably not a game a four year old should be in.”
“I wish I was old.” Softly chuckling, he wipes his son’s tears before leaning over to kiss his forehead.
“I know it seems fun, but trust me when I tell you to stay a kid for as long as you can. Honestly, I wish I was little like you again.”
“Really?”
“Yep,” he nods. “Being little comes with a lot more perks than you think. Like you can get all the toys, sleep in as much as you want, and you don’t have to worry about bills.”
“Bills?,” River asks sitting up.
“Yea they suck. Like how you feel about going to the dentist every year.”
“Ohh, yea bills are the worst,” he agrees shaking his head and making Chris laugh. “You can play games though. I can’t.”
There’s momentary silence as River fiddles with his hands and Chris looks at his son, taking his time to think how he could make everything better.
“Come with me,” he smiles holding his arms out so River could wrap his around his neck attaching himself to his dad.
“Hey, everything okay?,” you ask as they enter the dining room.
“Almost, I have an idea though that might help.”
“Chris...?”
“Trust me, it’s nothing crazy,” he chuckles kissing your cheek before heading out the back to meet with those playing in the yard.
———
Now finished helping wash the dishes and putting away the leftover food, you step outside in search of your two boys who surely had to be tired after spending over an hour outside. Plus with it getting late, you wanted to get back to the hotel before dark.
Sticking your head out the door, you see Chris and River running from one tree to the other trying not to be seen by everyone else playing. After whispering in his ear, Chris darts out shooting his Nerf gun at Kira and Nick each trying to reach the flag in the middle of the yard.
“Freeze! I got you!”
“Dangit!”
“That’s it, next round Chris is on my team.”
“Not if I get him first!”
As the two kids argue, River manages to dodge the shots from his other cousins reaching the flag and excitedly jumping up and down as he holds it over his head.
“Look! I got it daddy!,” River smiles as his dad jogs over to pick him up smiling himself.
“I see bubs! Good job!”
“Chris! River! You guys ready?,” you shout turning their attention towards the house.
“Mommy, I got the flag!,” River shouts back waving the bright orange, flimsy plastic in front of him.
“I see, congrats love! You guys ready to go? It’s getting late.”
“Aw do they have to leave already auntie Y/N? What about one more round?,” Nick asks wiping the sweat from his forehead.
“She’s right guys it’s getting late, we can pick it up tomorrow though,” Chris replies as they groan.
“Fine, we’ll play again tomorrow. This was a cool game idea River!,” Kira smiles giving him a high-five.
“Yea! It’s like our own version of Fortnite,” Nick adds making his little cousin shyly smile setting his forehead on his Chris’ shoulder.
Giving hug filled goodbyes to your remaining family members still hanging around, the three of you eventually get in your car ready to return to the hotel so you could get ready for bed. Not even 10 minutes in your ride, the sound of soft snores cause you to turn around finding your son peacefully sleeping with head slumped forward.
“Looks like your idea also tired him out,” you giggle. Peeking in the rear view mirror, Chris softly chuckles before letting out a short yawn himself. “Oh, is it past your bedtime too?”
“Um, did you just call me old?,” he smirks with hand on his chest.
“No of course not. I’d never disrespect my elders like that,” you tease causing him to gasp extending his arm to tickle your side. Covering your mouth to avoid waking River with your laughs, you’re finally able to push his hand away after a couple tries. “Stahp!”
“Don’t call me old.”
“I didn’t, I said elder which you technically are being older than me.”
“Well...then...don’t allude to me being or getting old. That’s not nice,” he pouts as he puts the car in park, turning to look at you with those heart melting blue eyes.
“I sowy. Forgive me?” Watching you bat your lashes trying to seem as innocent as you could, he can’t help but laugh bringing your face closer to his.
“Hmm...I guess,” he smiles pecking your lips.
“And thank you for fixing everything with River.”
“Babe you don’t have to thank me. It’s just part of my job being the world’s best dad,” he shrugs nonchalantly.
“And right now, most annoying,” you joke kissing his lips one more time.

Impending Paternity
Word Count: 3900+ (oneshot) [AO3]
Genre: Humor/Angst/Hurt/Comfort
Pairing: Peter B. Parker/Mary Jane Watson
Characters: Peter B. Parker, Mary Jane Watson, Spider-Man Noir, Peter Porker, Gwen Stacy, Peni Parker, Miles Morales
Summary: The closer the birth of his first child gets, the more Peter’s old fears of fatherhood resurface. Fortunately for him, he now has universes of parenting advice to call on and prepare him.
Written for the @dimension-zine.
~0~
Waking up in a cold sweat wasn’t something at all new to Peter B. Parker. That didn’t make it any less unpleasant.
What was new to him was registering the feeling of MJ’s arms around his waist as they slept, the flat press of her chin by his shoulders. Once again, they shared a bed: small, but more than enough room for them to lay pressed up against each other, legs entwined, skin on skin. It was almost enough for Peter to forget what had caused him to sleep more restlessly than he had in a very, very long time.
Even in the dark of the bedroom, the damn pregnancy test is staring directly at him from the mesh metal wastebasket, with its solid pink eye. He’d stared down monsters, mobsters, and maniacs of all sorts without blinking, and yet this damn near ignites his old “curl up in the shower and hide” instinct. MJ’s stomach doesn’t show any signs of change yet, doesn’t feel any different against his back...But there’s going to be a tiny person in there very soon. A person that he helped create. A person that he’ll have responsibility to.
MJ can’t stop smiling about it — this is what she’s wanted for a long time — and her joy is very nearly infectious. Peter had agreed to this, of course he had. It was time for him to quit hiding away from the fears that he couldn’t dodge or punch away so easily. But still, he isn’t sure if he can say he’s wholeheartedly looking forward to it, and still be telling the truth.
He’s never had younger siblings or cousins. He has long since lost Uncle Ben and Aunt May (knowing that other versions of them exist, even meeting them, doesn’t erase the sting). MJ hasn’t said a word to her own parents in years, and Peter has never had any problem saying flat out how unhelpful he’s sure they’d be anyway. So he has nobody to fall back on if he has questions or confusions or fears — aside from MJ, and while he loves her and trusts her judgment in all things, he can anticipate there may be times when an uninvolved third party will be invaluable. 
All of a sudden, Peter freezes, eyes going wide. He has the sudden impulse to jump out of bed that always used to come with a brilliant idea, which he feels are too few and far between nowadays. Obviously he can’t do that now, at fuck o’clock in the morning with his wife’s arms securely around him. It’ll have to wait until the morning, but oh, he can’t wait to explain to her over breakfast what he’s planning to do when he grabs enough free time over the next few months. She still hasn’t heard everything he’s had to tell about his little dimension-hopping adventure...
~0~
“So!” Spider-Man Noir slams this finished egg cream down on the table just as fiercely as he has the past eight glasses. “You’re finally becoming a daddy!”
“How...are you doing that through your mask?” Peter asks hesitantly, sipping on his one half empty glass of the drink. 
“I remember my childhood fondly,” Noir goes on as if Peter hadn’t spoken, gazing nostalgically out his window. He had wanted to take Peter bar-hopping, initially, but a guy walking around all in color attracted too much attention on the streets, and they had agreed that Noir’s apartment would be best for a private conversation. “Don’t remember my own mother or father, but my Aunt May says that she and my Ma used to trade parenting tips out of pamphlets when I was just a grub.”
Peter perks up slightly. “What kind of tips?”
“Well! First one’s for your future mama...Ah, how’s your place looking?”
Peter blinks. “It’s...fine. Better than living alone, no offense to you, but — ”
“No, no, you don’t get it. Is it all pretty?”
“Huh? Pretty?”
“Somethin’ Ma and Aunt May picked up from my granny,” Noir explains. “If a mama with an unborn baby sees ugly things, that ugly beams itself into her brain and straight down into her womb, and gets right into your baby. So you gotta be sure to keep her around pretty things to look at, you see? You want a nice kid, don’tcha?”
“Uh...Y-Yeah! I sure do!” he says, trying to keep disappointment off his face. Noir talks with absolute conviction in his beliefs, but what Peter had forgotten was that these were the beliefs of 1933. Even earlier, if he’s getting this stuff from older relatives. None of it’s going to do his twenty-first century self any good.
So the first chance he gets, Peter slurps down the last of his egg cream (surprisingly tasty, he’ll have to look up a modern recipe to compare sometime) and leaps up from his chair, sauntering back over towards an opening portal. “Thanks so much, Noir, but I gotta run! No telling when I can catch the next portal, y’know?”
Noir waves, unperturbed, pouring another drink. “Stock up on lard! You got to give baby’s first bath with it, get all that scum off ‘em!”
“Sure! Lard! No problem!” Peter calls over his shoulder, nearly diving into the portal.

Though Ham assures him that the natives find him much stranger and more unsettling than he finds them, Peter never quite gets used to being a real guy in a cartoon world. The lurid colors hurt his eyes, things move too fast and sound is constantly blaring, and for some reason he’s very, very suspicious about the contents of those hot dogs. But the veggie wraps are surprisingly good, and he chows down with one hand while typing at breakneck speed with the other. 
“Hot dog, you’re fast enough to kick some butt at the Daily Beagle!” Ham bounces up and pats his head happily. “Granted, we’re more story-ey than sciencey over there, but you get the point! That file-hunting stuff’s really not giving you any trouble?”
“Nope,” says Peter through a mouthful of tomato and lettuce. MJ’s newly emerging cravings were much less of a pain than either of them had expected: they consisted mostly of something rich stuffed into something bread, and he wished he could bring something from here back for her. “The rules are pretty different from the re -- uh, from my dimension, but surprisingly easy to memorize. I should be able to retrieve what you’re looking for in...maybe two minutes?” 
“Faaaaan-tastic!” 
“Can you keep them busy that much longer?”
“Sure can!” As he speaks, Ham is already whipping a comically large wrench out of his pocket and hurling it at the helmeted boar goons trying to break through the barricaded door. “Take that, you @#$%^&*!”
Peter still isn’t sure how Ham manages to make those sounds instead of swearing, but no matter. As far as he’s concerned, no questions equals smooth sailing. 
Well...of course he does have one. 
“Hey, Ham, this might be a weird thing to ask, but...what would you call ‘good parenting?’”
“Huh, I’m not sure. My parents passed before I was hatched, but Mom made sure her sac was settled in a nice place! My web was in May Porker’s lab for months before I transformed! Good thing, too, I was coming up on the tail end of my lifespan!”
“Oh...Y-Yeah, real good thing,” Peter stammers, fingers momentarily freezing on the keys as he processes that whole spider-turned-pig thing one more time. He’s privately quite glad that he’s never seen what’s under Ham’s mask. 
“I consider myself real lucky, actually!” Ham laughs. There’s a crash, and the metal door starts to squeal off its hinges, the enemy scrabbling to all get through the cracks at once. Ham promptly yanks out a machine gun and lets fly at them. Peter chokes down a laugh at the toy rat-a-tat-a-tat noises it makes. “Aunt May’s the best aunt a Spider-Ham could ask for! Bakes a mean apple pie, talks my ears off about her tech, supports me in all my endeavors. And you know, I can barely even see the bite scar anymore!”
Peter chokes on tomato. “The what?”
“Oh, Aunt May was the radioactive pig that turned me into Spider-Ham in the first place! My memories are slightly muddled around that time, but oh well! Doesn’t matter! Though neither of us had any idea it would do that, soooo...maybe just be extra careful about where your teeth go?”
Peter huffs, right-clicking the elusive file he’s found and downloading it to Ham’s flash drive, which is unsettlingly shaped like a bacon strip. “Yeah. Great advice. Don’t bite my kid. Next you’ll be telling me to keep my window open for the delivery stork to fly in with ‘em.”
“Well, sure, that’s just common courtesy! If ya really want to be nice, you give your stork a nice big tip!”
Peter swallows a groan from the deepest depths of his being, along with the last of the wrap.

“Six months and I still can’t believe you’re going to be a dad!” Gwen shouts, gracefully backflipping over another laser beam. “Like an actual dad!” 
“Almost seven, actually! And yep! Can’t believe it either!” Peter answers somewhat breathlessly, through his own leaping and punching of the armored thugs rushing in through the legs of the gun-toting robots. “Any ideas for names? Because MJ and I are way out!”
He hears Peni’s thoughtful humming through the speakers of her newest prototype: SP//dr, Mark Three. “Hmm...I don’t know much about historical naming conventions, but I also don’t think they’ve changed very much...Chief Stacy, what do you think?”
Safeguarded inside SP//dr’s cockpit from the onslaught targeting him and remaining remarkably calm about it, George Stacy considers it. “Hm. My daughter’s name is Gwendolyn. I’ve always thought that was the nicest name.”
Peter smirks under his mask, and gently elbows Gwen as she passes him. “Whaddaya think, Spider-Woman?”
He physically feels Gwen rolling her eyes. “It’s fine. Why don’t you just name him after you?”
“There’s millions of me! Maybe more! And besides we don’t even know if it’s a him, yet!”
“What about Ben? Or Benjamin?” Peni suggests. “To honor your uncle!”
“Oh, come on! Doesn’t anybody have an original idea!”
Gwen wrenches a robot head off and lobs it straight into a goon’s chest. “You know what, those will probably be a little easier to come by after we finish getting shot at!”
“Agreed, ma’am,” Chief Stacy says. “Excellent throw, by the way. Hey, Man-Spider, machine gunner at three o’clock!”
No matter how short and no matter how many people fight beside him, Peter’s various battles always seem to last forever as they happen, but the memory of them only lasts a blink of an eye. So it’s slightly dizzying when just a couple hours after the attack has been dealt with, Chief Stacy secured, and a plan for Gwen to hunt down whoever had ordered it outlined, the three of them are sitting on the roof of a skyscraper, eating cheeseburgers while the sun rises before them.
“I can’t even imagine eating a burger with pickles on it,” Gwen says. “You’re really telling me that’s the common thing instead of chili peppers where you’re from?”
“Yep,” Peter confirms, washing a large, hot bite down with a quarter of his soda. “I mean, I’ve had jalapeño burgers before, but they’re like a specialty thing.”
“We eat pickles on our burgers, too, but they’re all deep fried,” Peni puts in. “Crunchy.”
Gwen laughs, the breeze blowing her hair back. After hearing the story of how she’d acquired her undercut, Peter always finds it funny that she’d gone ahead and kept it after all. “So weird.”
“I’ll take that as a compliment,” he says. “Entirely unrelated, if you need any more help with your dad, you just let me know.”
“And me!” Peni adds, SP//dr waving a leg in agreement. 
“Thanks, guys.”
“Hey...Speaking of dads...” Peter pauses a moment to think before continuing, “What would you call your dads’ best qualities? Like, as a dad?”
“You’re looking for advice again?”
“A little template would be nice, sure!”
“All right, then...” Peni taps a French fry on the burger box. “I always loved how smart and loving my dad was, and that he had faith in me to continue his work when he was gone. Dad always believing in me helped me to believe in myself, when I might not have otherwise.”
Gwen nods. “I feel pretty similar about my dad. He doesn’t know about me being Spider-Woman, and he doesn’t really get the whole rock band thing. But he makes sure I know that he loves me no matter what, and that he’ll support me in whatever I decide to do. Provided I’m not, like, becoming a supervillain or anything, but I’m doing the opposite of that, so...”
Peter feels the urge to start taking notes. “Sounds good, sounds good, and...don’t take this the wrong way, but is there anything they do, as dads, that makes you not like them sometimes?”
Peni giggles. “Of course there was! I didn’t like when he’d work late and not get home on time, or when he’d make me stop reading comics and go to bed, or something like that. I’d get annoyed with him, but I still loved him.”
“My dad kind of runs the house like he does the police station,” Gwen adds. “He can be super strict, a bit like Miles’ dad. Ironclad rules and curfews for me and my brother, endless lectures when we break them. If I were a normal girl, it’d be pretty stifling, but since I have this life that I have to keep secret from him...it can be really hard sometimes.”
“Yeah, I...I can see that. I don’t really know if I should keep who I am secret from my kid, though. Would it keep them safe, or...just make them resent me? Or both?”
Gwen sighs. “There’s really no right answer, I don’t think.”
“You’re worried about being perfect.” Peni pats his shoulder. “But you don’t need to be. Just use your best judgment.”
Peter looks glumly at the street below. “I wish that was something I trusted.”
~0~
There’s a hollowness inside his chest. 
The only light on the wide, empty street are from the street lamps, ghastly white against the pitch black. He moves as if underwater: swinging, roundhousing, throwing his barely-pulled punches. His heart is pounding, but the rest of him and the world feels numb. Cold sweat soaks the inside of his mask, and heavy dread washes over his skin. 
Peter’s fighting shadows, human-shaped pillars of darkness. His strikes go right through them, when he can reach. But everything they land on him feels like being pummeled by a cannonball, and he’s not sure how long he can endure it. 
The end comes out of nowhere. One spectral arm flashes up, there’s a glint of silver, and a soundless explosion that makes the whole world ripple. It hits his chest like a tidal wave, slams him into the concrete. He can’t get up again. In the world of muted, swimming colors, the gushing of blood from his shot-open heart is sickeningly vivid. 
“DAD!”
Everything in him jolts. He lifts his spinning head to see a kid sprinting towards him, as fast as they can but not fast enough to reach him. He can’t tell how old the kid is, or whether they’re a boy or girl. But he recognizes MJ’s bright red hair and blue eyes, and his own expression of utter, gut-wrenching horror and heartbreak. 
“DA-A-A-D!”
He tries to say he’ll be okay and coughs up blood instead. His rib-punctured lungs won’t let him speak. Panic engulfs him: his death is going to be burned into his kid’s eyes forever and there’s nothing he can do, nothing he can do, nothing, nothing, nothing —
“Peter! Peter, wake up, it’s okay!”
The darkness is blue, striped by the thin gold light through their bedroom blinds. His eyes fly open and he grabs for his bare chest: intact, bloodless. It’s soft and safe around him but he still can’t catch his breath. MJ is awkwardly rolling over in bed to stroke his hair and try to hug him. 
“Peter, you’re okay. You were dreaming. Just dreaming...”
She’s no stranger to dealing with him like this, and the guilt stabs deeper. “I...s-sorry, I...”
“Deep breaths. Slow breaths. I’m here.”
“I won’t be,” he chokes out.
“Peter — ?”
“I-I dreamed that someone shot me, killed me, r-right in front of our kid. It...God, it terrified them, ruined them for life, I could feel it, and it was all my fault!”
He rolls over to look at her face, to anchor him to the real world. He half-expects to see irritation in her eyes at his weakness. Instead there’s love and sympathy. 
“It wasn’t your fault. It was just a dream. That doesn’t mean it will happen.”
“It happened to every parent I ever had. It happened to me. What if I do that to my kid? I can’t — I don’t — ”
Trembling, Peter places his hands on MJ’s belly. Their kid, determined to make sure that their mom sleeps as little as possible, kicks a drumbeat against his palms. They don’t know what fear, pain, or loss is yet. How can he be the one to bring it into their life?
“I’m not running away again,” he assures MJ, as her fingers run through his hair. 
“I know you won’t. Don’t worry.”
“I don’t want to leave you. I don’t want to leave our kid. I never did. I want to be there for you for the rest of my life,” Peter forces out through his tightening throat. “B-But that choice could end up not being mine, after all of this. The things I do, the people I fight, I could die anytime! I’d leave you again. Both of you.”
MJ cups his cheek, leans in to kiss his forehead. “I can’t tell you that nothing bad will happen, Peter. But I can tell you you’re not alone. Like, I worry about the same thing happening to me that happened to my mom. Dying before our baby can even remember me.”
Peter’s heart lurches; he’d forgotten about that. “I’m sorry, I-I didn’t —“
She cuts him off with another kiss. “We’re both afraid, Peter. Your job is probably the most dangerous one out there, but you don’t have to go through this alone. All we can do is what every parent has to do: our best.”
“What if my best isn’t good enough? What if I fail, and they hate me?”
“It’ll be more than enough for the people who love you. Always.” MJ smiles. “And they would never hate you. I never could, no matter what.”
Tears slip down his cheeks. He wants to tell her thank you, but he can’t seem to speak, only hug her as close as he can.
~0~
He has one place left to visit. Something he hasn’t been able to face until month nine.
Aside from this world’s MJ, Miles is the most common visitor to Perfect Peter’s grave. After the first time, he’s never surprised to see Peter B. here too. 
“Hey,” he says as Peter walks up, morning dew soaking his sneakers. “How’s it going? Is MJ doing okay?”
Peter nods. “Her due date’s in two weeks. All smooth sailing so far as the doctors say.”
“Awesome.” Miles half-smiles. “So...you had a question for me?”
“Yeah. I just need...one more hope boost before this thing really gets started. Feel free to tell me to kick rocks back to my own dimension if you don’t want to talk about it, but...” He gestures to the gravestone. “This Peter. Your uncle. What was it like to lose them, because of their line of work? I’ve made my life so damn risky, am I doing something wrong bringing a baby into it with me?”
Miles is silent for a long time. “I don’t have a solid yes or no to that. I...I’ll always wish things were different for them both. That there was something I could have done to save them. If I let myself think about it too hard, or too long, I’ll lose myself in it.”
Peter winces. But then Miles goes on.
“I’ve just got to tell myself, what happened, happened. Can’t change the past. The best thing I can do, for them and for me, is keep moving forward. I miss them like crazy and I wish they were still around, I always will. But more than anything, I remember the lessons that they taught me. That they were good men, that they cared about me. It’s the same with you and your uncle, right?”
“I...I do remember him that way. Yeah. But I was going into college when Uncle Ben died. I wasn’t...just a kid. I chose this life, MJ chose to stay with me, our kid didn’t ask for this kind of life.”
Miles shrugs. “I worry about my dad every day. He’s worked a dangerous job in a dangerous city since before I was born. I don’t hold it against him, because I know why he does it. I’m one of the people he’s trying to protect, after all.”
“Yeah, but — ”
“Peter. Come on.” Miles turns to look at him then, with a knowing smile. “You don’t know all of what you’re doing. No one does. What matters is that you’re a good man, and that’s what’ll be most important to your kids, whatever happens: that their dad loves them and would do anything for them.”
Peter feels the same rush of pride and affection for him that he had back at the reactor, along with a sense of security around his heart. He’s surprised to find himself laughing. “You’re the best, kid, you know that?”
Miles’ grin broadens cheekily. “Oh, I know. I try.”
He wraps an arm around Miles’ shoulders and pulls him in for a hug. “Yeah, just keep trying, future godfather.”
It takes a second for the word to hit Miles, and then he spins around to stare at him with huge eyes. “I — their godfather?! Me?”
Peter laughs. “No one out there’d be better than you. Only the best for my kid.”

After the twenty-seven most stressful hours of their lives, Mira Penelope Watson-Parker emerges into the world with a long, indignant screech. 
Illuminated in the noon sun, in the soft yellow hospital room, both his wife and daughter look like angels in Peter’s eyes. He doesn’t even care that he’s about to cry. “You did amazing, hon.”
MJ grins. “Helps to have a husband whose hands I could squeeze as hard as I needed. C’mere and hold her. I’m sure she wants to meet her dad.”
Peter tries so very hard not to tremble as MJ passes their blanket-wrapped daughter into his arms. He’s never felt anything so delicate in his life. 
“She’s...so tiny,” is all he can manage.
Mira’s hair is her mother’s bright red, just like in his dream. But the dark hazel eyes staring curiously up at him are all his own. 
Peter smiles at her, cradling her close. He really would do anything for her, he knows that already.
“Hey, sweetheart. Hey. Dad’s here.”

Joe: i only need to know one half the equation to know we're not the same Joe: it's a compliment to him if fuck all else Ronnie: give it to him then Ronnie: hell lap it up Joe: i told you it's nice Joe: what you lot got Joe: but i'm not looking to get in on it if that's what you reckon Ronnie: take what you want pussy Joe: that's not your thing? Ronnie: what we cant both do it Joe: potentially Ronnie: dont remember you having any hesitation to share a needle Ronnie: grow a pair when youre not getting shot up Ronnie: maybe the dayll come when i dont have to spoon feed you the gear like a fucking kid Joe: i'd have to work out if i want anything but first Ronnie: yeah Joe: is it all you want Joe: the heroin Ronnie: mind your fucking business Joe: alright Joe: do you want to do my next tattoo or what Ronnie: i said take what you fucking want Joe: [come through with ink you've undoubtedly stole from your flatmate, also being more spacey/twitchy than normal like distract me gal] Ronnie: [love how old school & gross we're kicking this tattoo situation unlike when Ali does it] Joe: [which is absolutely the point, how your arms and legs don't fall off lol] Ronnie: [their other ones probably wouldn't have even healed yet cos lbr it's gonna be no time in between these interactions] Joe: [just loads of lowkey open wounds, like that isn't life anyway] Ronnie: [mhmm they'd be fucked already too cos they are so itchy when they are healing and y'all don't have chill] Joe: [all the reason for constant touch ups/ messing with so it casually never heals #mood] Ronnie: [I didn't think of that but I stan] Joe: [casual metaphor for your everything lads] Ronnie: [you know you can do anything to her tattoowise yourself Joseph she don't care] Joe: [probably doing some weird repitition moment you'd usually do on yourself which will be painful af excuse you] Ronnie: [she do love the pain you're fine] Joe: [good thing too, we're just here fucking each other up like this ain't gonna go anywhere else lolllllll] Ronnie: [way more #into it than I should be considering I don't  even like when people shout lol] Joe: [you babby, they are not, obviously we're getting and taking drugs even if she's too naive to know why they're in such a state, maybe they can make a dealer come to them when they're feeling fancy/have already had loads lol] Ronnie: [take a moment to appreciate how few clothes she is wearing rn and how much that means this poor gal can and would see like we've got track marks and self harm scars for days even before you start on the tattoos lol, you're gonna get clued in before she leaves hen] Joe: [honestly props for not running home screaming tbh babe] Ronnie: [especially when this dealer comes because he ain't Drew like he should be scary af] Joe: [lowkey makes you work for it even when you're paying 'cos hates junkies] Ronnie: [at least she can basically fuck him in full view for Joe's benefit because the vibe is already there haha] Joe: [i truly love thinking about what the hell you're telling the flatmate when she leaves, she's not that stupid, also must fancy you if she doesn't report you immediately lol] Ronnie: [she definitely does that's not just Ronnie's bpd jealousy shining through like did you tell her you were related after the gig or what even Joseph what's the narrative] Joe: [also, entirely unrelated, when you bleaching your hair 'cos it looks so much better lol, anyways, he's probably had to go with a troubled sister narrative 'cos she's the type to be sympathetic and it makes sense why he'd deal from her pov] Ronnie: [that's gonna make the obvious sexual tension awkward but yeah I vote they definitely do it while she's staying because same vibe as the tattoo sesh so] Joe: [ikr, when you're blatantly fucking this will be very confusing, you should deffo only be about 1st year lol] Ronnie: [are you gonna give him another different flatmate in year 2 or like none?] Joe: [maybe for year 2  on you can still have some like a house share moment but he's the one you never see and has nothing to do with you] Ronnie: [that works definitely cos like I was just thinking how could he afford somewhere on his own] Joe: [yeah, even if we're technically employed whilst in uni by the orchestra, it's not gonna be loads, and that's how London be even if you're not a student] Ronnie: [how long do we think she should stay for this time because obvs she's coming back again and again but] Joe: [hmm, like he isn't gonna tell her to go so it's on her for how long she can deal lol] Ronnie: [just cos I'm thinking she should leave because something happens/almost does and it freaks her out because she's meant to hate him and there's only so much you can play off as doing for shock value when you're blatantly into it] Joe: [that makes sense, clearly it ain't gonna take long for that to transpire] Ronnie: [yeah a few days is what I'm imagining, but like enough that she probably thinks nothing will happen because it hasn't so far, if that makes sense] Joe: [i'm with it] Ronnie: [how far do we wanna go is always the question] Ronnie: [okay idea time, hear me out hun, what if it's like an unexpectedly pure/cute moment by their standards that happens in the day to day because the obvious would be to have them go all in when they are fucked up but like think about it] Joe: [that's what I thought too though 'cos it's more impactful 'cos it isn't as if it's gonna start with a kiss when it does for real like it's all extra and them to cover that it's about anything but being fucked up, so that would shake you both] Ronnie: [so glad we're on the same page here, like I can't think of a good example of what I mean/think should happen but] Joe: [we know the vibe, doing something vaguely domestic before realizing what you're doing] Ronnie: [so she gotta run away and nobody is gonna know where she is or what she's doing for a bit soz Charlie & Bronson] Joe: [you wanna skip to that time period now, this hasn't been excessively long or anything[ Ronnie: [we totally can because we can always skip back/add it if we think of anything else we wanna do while she's there etc] Ronnie: [I've had a potential idea how to start this so neither of them technically has to bite the bullet and go first like if you give me a rough idea what kind of thing Charlie would say e.g where are you/are you dead bitch and I'll reply here like she's in the wrong convo lol] Joe: [that's a good idea boo, probably something like you can stop hiding now and an update about whatever the fuck he's up to in his life which you can make up you know the vibe lol] Ronnie: [I was just like realistically if they were both shook by what happened neither of them are gonna be like oh hey] Joe: [yeah like it'd take him a while even if he would 'cos not just gonna let this go that easy, so it's a solid way to do it] Ronnie: a real scouse ma's meant to shout down the street when its time to stop playing about Ronnie: lazy cunt Joe: I'm only half if I'm anything, and you probably won't give me that any rate Ronnie: 🖕 not talking to you Ronnie: got the wrong gaylord Joe: easy mistake Joe: you not got his number saved?

Moving
HAHN
After getting Diego and Treasure to sleep, Lainey laid across the living room sofa and watched television. She wasn't ready to go upstairs yet, not until Eddie and Zion got home. Eddie had to work late in Maxine and Zion was picking Marissa up from the hospital after shift.
Somewhere between Wayans Bros and Living Single, Lainey had fallen asleep. She rarely had dreams but when she did they were either very good or very bad.
"What the hell you doin' down here?"
Lainey shot up from the sofa rubbing her eyes. She look around and realized that she was no longer in her parents' house but hee biological parents' house. Kaine came and stood directly in front of her, snatching her up from the sofa.
"You hard of hearin? What the hell you doin, Alaina?" He yelled once more. "Take your ass back upstairs."
Shaking him off, Lainey walked out the room towards the front door. When she reached for the door knob, Goddess turned around and pulled her from the door.
"Where the hell do you think you're goin? Ya daddy said take ya lil traitor ass upstairs. Get up there."
"You better get up there, LayLay," A voice whispered in her ear.
She jumped turning to see who was behind her. She took steps back until she bumped into Goddess.
"Oooh now we get a reaction outta you. You shocked, baby? That's your big brother, you not glad to see him?" She laughed.
"Bishop is dead," Lainey said staring at him.
"You can't kill him when he's in here," Goddess whispered tapping her daughter's head. "He's apart of you, he will always be with you."
Goddess pulled her daughter to the staircase, Bishop followed closely behind them. Opening one of doors on the second floor, Goddess pushed her daughter in ahead of her and Lainey almost gagged.
"What's wrong, LayLay? Those are your sisters right? Your Mama and your nephews ." Bishop laughed holding her from behind. "Yeeah, they were easy to get to. Sitting ducks in your parents house please Esperanza constantly leaving led us right to them."
"Yeah, she did us a favor so we let her and her daughter go." Goddess grinned.
The trio left that room and went into another. She could hear the muffled fussing before she stepped inside. Her brothers, her father and Mitch were tied to chairs with gags kn their mouths. Lainey could see that they had been beat up pretty bad. Behind them stood Eric amd Jeremiah.
Goddess smiled. "All my babies in one room together. I love it."
Lainey tried to back out of the room but Bishop stopped her, his hands on her waist.
"We got it from here, Ma. We're just gonna get reacquainted with our sister. It's been awhile."
When Zion and Eddie walked in, they heard crying and of course Eddie pulled his gun out. Zion walked in front of him towards the living room where he heard the crying coming from. He rushed over to kneel beside the sofa, shaking his sister gently. Eddie cussed and put his gun away.
"Wake up, baby sis. Its me, its Zi," he whispered rubbing her face.
"What's wrong with her? Why she cryin?" Eddie asked running a hand through his hair.
Zion shrugged as she started to wake up, "Bad dream I'm guessing."
When Lainey opened her eyes, she hugged her brother tight crying on his shoulder. He rubbed her back soothingly.
"You aight, we here, you good, sweetheart. It's us. We got you."
She let him go and looked at both brothers. "We can't stay here right now. We gotta leave."

Just As Bad IV
Masterlist for previous parts and all other fics!
A/N: Shoutout to all who have supported. I know I was gone for a bit but, I’m back and this series will be progressing quite a bit. Stay tuned and please let me know if you want to be tagged cuz I will forget. As always, Reader is Black. Feedback is welcome.
Warnings: Violence, mentions of death, smut, smut and a tinge of fluff, drug use and alcohol use. Cursing. The reader and Erik being their usual selves when they work.
You and Erik sat at the head of the table, looking around the casino. “No signs of them.” He said.
“I don’t have all fucking night.” You growled after sipping your drink.
Erik chuckled, kissing your neck and rubbing the small of your back. “Chill, ma. I’m rubbing off on you too much being all tense and shit. Since our company isn’t arriving anytime soon, let me you loosen up.” Erik’s hand slipped under your skirt as he pulled your right leg over his lap. You looked around to make sure no one was watching as Erik moved your thong to the side and made contact with your clit. You jolted forward as he rubbed circles on you.
“We need to keep our heads on a swivel.” You said, fighting your moans.
“I got you.” He whispered, studying the crowd while keeping his finger busy. You gripped the edge of the table and bit your lip. “Fuck, you’re wet. Me fingerfucking you on a mission turn you on?” Erik inserted a finger inside you. You rolled your head over your shoulders, taking deep breaths. You glanced at other people making sure no one was catching on to what was going on under the tablecloth.
“Shit.” You hissed. You gripped Erik’s wrist as you angled your hips for him. Erik peppered kisses along your neck as he pulled you in.
Erik inserted another finger and used his thumb to tease your clit. “Fuck, right there. Almost.” You sighed. Your gripped the fabric of Erik’s pants as you contracted around him. “I’m about to cum.”
“You better hurry up. Our targets just walked in the door.” Erik said. You let out a low moan, trying to focus on not being too vocal. “Come on, Princess. Let out a quick nut for me.”
“Faster.” You whispered, angling yourself in your chair. “Fuck, Stevens.” You quivered and your toes curled in your heels. Your nails dug into the table as you tightened around his fingers. You choked on your own moans as you came. Your thighs rotated, closing in on Erik’s hand. Erik chuckled, pulling his hand from your vice grip and licking his fingers. You cleared your throat, pulling your skirt back down.
“Now, let’s handle this.” Erik said, pulling his jacket in.
You adjusted yourself in your chair, giving him a smirk. You leaned back, pulling your ponytail forward and crossing your legs. Erik smirked at you as he settled back in his chair. The two men approached your table and sat down with the briefcase.
“Show us the product and we show you the money.” The man said.
Erik reached into the pocket of his denim jacket and pulled out the flash drive. “New plans for military grade weapons and the lists of the manufacturers. You’ll be able to equip your boys in Guatemala with just a phone call.” You said.
“How do we know it’s on there?” the other asked, crossing his arms. “How do we you ain’t a lying bitch?”
You leaned forward but, Erik spoke up for you, putting the flash drive back in his jacket pocket. “You might want to watch your mouth. She’s crazy and I ain’t a fan of assholes talking reckless when they asked us to the dirty work, especially to her. We ought to charge y’all double for what we had to go through. How about you trust us and talk to us nice or we walk outta here with information to win a small war and you just leave empty-handed.”
The table was silent as you stared each other down. This wasn’t going well and you knew this shit was going south. You looked behind you and saw men in suits coming into view. You knew they were armed and this wasn’t about play out cleanly. You sighed, shaking your head. “Stevens, you know what I find funny?”
“What’s that, ma?” Erik said looking at you.
“It’s always the motherfuckers that don’t want to pay up that underestimate us.” You said nodding towards the men coming towards you.
Erik nodded, peeping what was going on. “Well, how about we just make an example outta ‘em?”
“Listen…” one of the men said.
“No, you listen.” Erik said.
“We’re not sure what game you are exactly running but, let us example something to you. We’ve been through this before with people just as dumb as you.” You said.
“Maybe even dumber.” Erik chuckled taking a sip of his drink.
“So, your goons that are creeping up from all these hidden corners, whether you brought them to scare us in numbers or to take us out back and put a bullet in us, it doesn’t mean shit.” You said.
“Because, this ain’t our first rodeo.” Erik said. “You don’t want to pay us, fine. But, what you won’t do is play us like we ain’t shit. Call your guys off, let’s make this exchange or else.”
“Or else what?” One of them said, cocking an eyebrow up.
You rolled your eyes and reached under the table. Your finger gripped the trigger on a tactical shotgun. You felt your head being yanked back. One of the guys had a fist full of your hair and Erik looked back to see a pistol being pointed at you.
“Hands up!” he said
“No, it’s hands off.” Erik jumped up with the champagne bottle in his hand. He broke it over the man’s face that had a gun to you. Erik grabbed him by his collar and took the gun into his hand, using him as a human shield. You stood up, pulling the slide on the shotgun and firing shots at both men. You jumped on top of the table, standing over the briefcase.
“We need an escape!” you yelled.
“Working on it, babe.” Erik said, kicking a chair into someone before they could fire at him. The bullets went up and hit the chain on a chandelier. Erik looked up and watched it shake. The links buckled and Erik knew it was going fall but, it was the position that scared him. Erik looked in your direction and saw that you were preoccupied with the henchmen looking for cover behind a pillar. Erik tackled you before the chandelier could make contact, letting it crash on the table. Erik kicked over another table, as he kept you down and let bullets miss the both of you, but still kept you shielding with his body. Erik reached through the debris of the table and the broken chandelier and pulled out the duffle bag and handed you the bulletproof vest. “Get this on. We move on my count.”
You pulled the vest on over you, nodding. Erik pulled the rifle out the bag and loaded it. You noticed a shadow coming over and turned. You laid on your back, cocking the shotgun and putting around in the man’s chest. “I’m out.” You said. Erik handed you the automatic machine guns. You took the safety off and looked over at Erik.
“You ready?” he asked.
“Always.” You said. Erik leaned in and gave you a kiss. You kissed back then pulled away.
“Let’s go.” Erik said. You both jumped up and covered each other’s backs. You had the room cleared in a matter of minutes and made it out with both briefcase and the information you collected.
You and Erik rested in a hot bubble bath together. Erik had rolled a blunt and you had a bottle of your favorite red wine to drink. Music played in the background with dim lights, setting a relaxing mood. “We’re done taking deals from Central American mobsters.” Erik said before lighting his blunt. You hummed in agreement. You leaned over and grabbed the wine glass from the floor.
“So?” you said after sipping your wine.
“So what?” Erik said, blowing a puff of smoke into the air. You rolled your eyes as you sat back against the tub, the scented bubbles around you, covering your chest.
“Look, it’s been three weeks now. You never told me. What made you change your mind?” you asked. “And you better be honest.”
Erik took another drag off the joint he rolled before speaking. “Pussy was too good to give up.”
“Haha. Okay, Stevens.” You said.
“Nah, but seriously. I can’t ride with nobody else.” Erik said, fishing your feet out of the water and holding them to his chest. “No one else can handle me and I’m not trying to look up and you got a new partner.”
“I guess, I’ll take that as an ‘I have feelings for you’ and be happy.” You said putting your wine glass on the edge of the tube.
“Real shit, Y/N. You’re intelligent, you’re a great shot, you keep me on my toes, you’re the sexiest woman I’ve seen touch a gun, and you the only woman I would let choke me during sex.” Erik said rubbing the top of your feet.
You chuckled. “If that’s all I get I’ll take it.” You said.
Erik smacked his lips. “High maintenance ass.” He said.
“What about we don’t get a happy ending?” you said, sipping more wine.
Erik shrugged his shoulders. “Maybe we do, maybe we don’t”
“Well, maybe I’ll find someone with better dick and actually wants what I want and drop you.” You said.
“Yeah fucking right.” Erik said. “Bring your pretty ass over here.” You got up and straddled Erik. You felt his hard member against you. You leaned in and kissed him, pulling at his lip. Erik reached down and pulled the bottle of silicone lube, putting some on his fingers. You moaned as you felt Erik lather your entrance. He wrapped one arm around the small of your back as he patted your pussy with his tip. You pulled away and wrapped your arms around his neck.
“So, Stevens…we’re going to try this out.” You asked.
“You gotta stop calling me Stevens. It’s either Erik or Daddy.” He said as he palmed your ass.
“How about neither?” you moaned as you sank down on his hard member. Erik started to guide you, up and down on him, making the both of you let out gasps.
“You’ll do it eventually.” He chuckled. “We’ll give it time.” You started a slow bounce on Erik, moaning in his ear. You gripped the tub as you quickened your pace. The water started to splash around you as you twerked on him.
Erik’s hand landed on your ass with a force that made you jump. “Faster.” He huffed. You obliged, adjusting yourself to move your hips faster. Erik let his head fall back as he groaned. He reached and picked up the blunt, offering it to you. Without breaking your rhythm, you took two drags of it and letting the last puff of smoke leave your mouth with a moan. “Damn, you sexy. Keep working them hips, ma.”
You moaned as you tightened around him. You threw your head back moaning as your hips kept meeting Erik’s. He pinched your nipples as he bit at your neck. You pulled Erik off of you as your hand grabbed onto his neck, choking him. Erik let out a throaty moan as you started to grind your hips to him, leaning back for leverage. “Fuck, Y/N. You’re going to make me cum.”
“Say that again. Say I’m going to make you cum, Stevens.” You said breathlessly.
“You’re going to make me cum.” He hissed, eyes shut and brows furrowing. “Fuck!”
Your hips crashed into him one last time with a loud cry as you cry. Erik’s hips pushed you up as he shot into you. You wrapped your arms around his neck, letting your head rest on his shoulder. Without warning, Erik grabbed you by the back of your knees. The water moved violently as he stood up, holding you. You wrapped your legs around him. Erik leaned and grabbed the lighter and the leftover blunt. He took big steps out of the bathtub and walked you both to the bed, still inside you. Erik dropped you on the bed and untied the wrap around your head letting your curls fall. You turned on your stomach, arching your back like Erik always wanted. You looked back at Erik as he watched you biting his lip. You wiggled your ass for him, almost teasingly. Erik brought his hand down on your ass cheek. You hissed at the sting but, laughed it off. You watched Erik put the blunt back to his lips and relight it. He took a long drag as he massaged your ass. “Are you going to fuck me? Or are you just gonna leave me here wet while you smoke?”
“Imma fuck that impatience out of you since you wanna whine so much.” Erik said as he let out a puff of thick smoke.
“You can try.” You scoffed. Erik left the blunt in his lips as he gripped your hips. He pushed himself inside you and immediately started with the strokes. You moaned and grabbed the sheets as you began to throw yourself back into him. Erik took the blunt out of his mouth and blew the smoke out into the air. He leaned down and pulled on your hair, yanking you up. “Fuck! Uh, yes! Stevens!”
“So now I gotta fuck you until you call me daddy?” Erik asked.
“You gon be fucking me for a long time.” You chuckled through your moans.
Erik leaned down, kissing on your neck and your ear. “You know that can be arranged, Y/N.” His hips crashed into you, faster and harder. You propped yourself up on your arms only for Erik to force you back down, gripping the back of your neck. You gasped as you searched for something to grab onto. Erik gripped your waist with one hand as he took drags off the blunt. You quivered around him and your toes curled. You reached under you to rub circles on your clit. “Get your hand away from there.”
You didn’t listen and continued. You screamed as Erik reached and grabbed your hand, yanking your arm in a way it shouldn’t be yanked. The pain only added to your arousal though. Erik took his hand off your neck and took the blunt out of his mouth and put it out on the sheets, tossing the bud. “Where you want it, ma?”
“On my back.” You whined.
Erik pounded into you as your legs shook and tightened around him. You gasped as your orgasm ripped through you. Erik hurriedly pulled out of you and let himself release on the small of your back. He hovered over you catching his breath. Erik went back to the bathroom and got a wet towel. You smiled as he tenderly cleaned you up. Erik looked back at you, leaning down. He kissed you and pulled away.
Erik laid down next to you and pulled you in. You were enjoying the silence until Erik opened his mouth. “So, I think we should get you a grill. My girl gotta have some ice.”
You smacked your lips. “You always gotta ruin the damn moment.”
“I’m serious, baby girl. Once this heat roll over, I’m taking you to my guy and we getting you some custom made ice. So cold you cause a cold front if you take a deep breath.” Erik said putting his hand behind his head, smirking at you.
“Stevens, go to sleep.” You said.
“It’s Daddy, Princess.” Erik teased. You hit him with a pillow making him laugh as he turned over, wrapping his around him.

[SP] The Mis-Adventures of Le'xander Malcolm Part 1
My dear Jenny,
I pray this letter finds you in good spirits.
The Lord's good grace seems to have finally ended five years after those damn Yankees abandoned us. They hoped our spirits would dwindle after they destroyed our guns and choked our supply of gunpowder, but they were wrong, for we Southerners are a resilient bunch who take pride in our fortitude. That could be the reason for our downfall. We arrogantly dismissed the North and worried nothing of our free labor force. We should have worried.
When reports of the Negros not working began to spew about, it should've given us cause for concern, but instead, we ignored them. The missing power of the gun behind the master's hand must've made the whip sting a little less. Even my most loyal and trustworthy Negros began to speak more loosely at the lip, declaring when they would or wouldn't do a task.
Whispers began to pick up in multitude, speaking of the Negroes arming themselves with sword amongst other savage tools. Then talk of attacks spread. One rogue Negro turned into a few that turned into a mob. Soon enough, full revolts were afoot. Men hacked to death in their sleep; plantations painting the sky orange and red as fires engulfed cotton fields.
I write this now barricaded in my bedroom. The Negros have hung the overseers and are banging on the door as I scribe. I'm confident I won't make it through the night. My arrogance has failed us, my love. To think we were justified in–
Charles Sumter 1856
Moonmilk Plantation, Georgia.
Blood trickled from Slash's thick broadsword dying the cotton parchment a tarnished brown. The smooth feather-penned ink was still wet. He stood over the slaver's limp body gazing at it with relish. A pounding heart rocked his chest and surged warmth throughout his body.
"Do we burn it down?" Dante asked Slash and interrupted his moment of triumph. Thick creases of worry burrowed into Dante's light-brown forehead.
"No, let em find it. Let em see what fruit their seeds have brought," Slash swung the massive blade onto his back.
He spent days sweating in front of a sweltering hot forge tucked away in the Chattahoochee Forest, hidden from prying eyes. He'd strike the molten metal until it formed into shape, and with every hit, he envisioned how rich it'd be to watch the man who caused him years of torment finally get what he deserved. The finished product wouldn't have hung on anyone's mantle in an attempt to impress onlookers, but the look never concerned Slash. The only thing of importance was its usefulness–the sword's ability to execute. He knighted it Sweetback's Revenge.
Slash stepped over the slaver with complete disregard and out the door. Dante and the other members of their freedom crusaders followed close behind. The plantation house was unrecognizable. Splintered wood pieces from a hacked door were scattered apart on the floor. Blood-soaked soles tracked footprints throughout the formerly pristine mansion that once hosted dignitaries with fina china for a Sunday's tea. Imported Italian leather couches mourned for sections of itself to be whole again after being cut and sliced about, neglecting its painstaking assembly. The extensive portrait that previously overlooked the opulent fireplace, meant to be the piece people commented on while eating pound cake served by a subservient Negro woman, decorated with gold trimmings, laid face down and ignored.
The only care displayed that fall night was a benevolent, full moon as it cast its silver light down onto their black skin and tinted it a milky-blue as they stepped out the house.
"So, what are we going to do now, Slash?" Dante asked.
Slash pointed across the field towards the stables, "we gone snatch sum hawses up and make fo tha hills."
The grass crunched under their feet as they made their way towards the stables. Five men walked across that field, some armed with clanking swords at their hips, others toting large maces on their backs or small personal hatchets. Slash and his brother in arms were together for three years now, which was rare for field-hands, well all except for Dante, who looked white enough to be in the house. He and Dante went so far back, Slash would often forget when was the first time they met. The occasions Dante snuck food to him, risking his own hide, out of the big house made him forever endeared to Slash's heart. He promised Dante he'd bring him along when the time came. The time was here, but they all knew, this was only the first step. The road ahead of them would be far from easy and about two miles from hell.
They entered the stables and found it barely lit by the moonlight, making the veiled movements of shadowed horses the only thing visible. One of the men struck a lantern for light and counted eight horses. There were only five of them, but the extra horses would come in handy, especially with the immense distance they planned to travel. Bothered horses whined and neighed, surprised at the time they were awakened, but quickly recognized the soft touch of hands who brushed, bathed, and fed them, and instantly calmed.
Dante approached the last stall and squinted, trying to figure out what was tucked away in the crevice. There was a small figure laid in the corner of the booth curled into a ball.
"Slash," Dante called, sure to speak softly for fear he'd startle it.
"What," Slash's voice boomed throughout the stable and woke it, unaware of Dante's efforts to keep quiet.
It was a boy, small and lean clothed in tattered rags. The coal-skinned boy scrambled up into the nook of the enclosure, encasing himself in a dark shadow that hid everything but wide-open pupils of a startled child.
"Lemme see that lantern," Slashed illuminated the stall.
"It's a boy, still wit shackles on his wrists and ankles," Slash spoke once seeing him, "it's okay, we ain't gone hurt cha boi," Slash spoke in a low soft whisper with his hands raised in a surrender hoping to disarm the boy of his fears, but he stayed put.
"I ain't going back to the Johnsons, y'alls gone try and take me back but I's ain't gone go, y'alls gone have to kill me before I go," the boy's voice teetered on the edge of manhood and childhood while it navigated the cliff of uncertainty. He wasn't sure if death would be any better than the Johnsons, but he slowly spaced his leg apart and bent his back into an angle that welcomed a rushing bull.
"Oh, is that right?" Slash chuckled and rose his eyebrows.
"Slash, we ain't got much time for this. The sisters will be returning soon enough," Dante warned, sure to glance over his shoulder, "leave the boy and let's go."
"Nah, they'd torture him for our whereabouts, and I can'ts let that happen. Hand me ya hatchet, will ya?" Slashed reached out his hand, then Dante begrudgingly obliged him.
Slash crept within a hair's touch of the boy and sucked in a gut-deep breath. "Stay still boy, this won't hurt," Slash wielded the small ax high above his head, precisely casting it down onto the chains that trapped the boy and shattered the links between his wrist.
The boy's eyes widened with grateful shock as he shook his arms freely, no longer constrained by the stifling chains. Tear-washed eyes glanced up to Slash's towering figure in awe. Amazement swept the boy's voice from under his feet.
"What's your name boy?" Slash bent on one knee to meet the boy's eye.
"My ma and pa would call me Le'xander Malcolm, but Massa call me–"
"It don't matter what the white devil called ya. Ya name is the one ya daddy, and ya mammy gave ya. But we all gotta callin name, like mine is Slash, so we gotta give you one too. How bout' X?"
Le'xander would've preferred his own name, but Slash's benevolent warm eyes were reassuring arms for Le'xander to fall into, so he gracefully smiled and shook his head in agreement.
Dante continued to argue against bringing the boy, claiming the extra body unable to defend itself was nothing more than a liability. The path they were set to travel was ill-equipped to handle burdens because the mistakes here weren't your average dustups that were fixed with a light pat-down of the trousers. No, an error on this road surely preceded death or worse. Slash fully comprehended the consequences but still swung the boy on the back of his horse, for something occured in his spirit when he broke those shackles. No longer was it merely about enacting his revenge and escaping off into the hills for his own freedom, it was about his people.
Ten years later and Slash orchestrated the freedom of countless Black bodies thanks to The Nation, a paramilitary organization comprised of Black militants. An aged body now littered with wounds stacked on one another arranged in picturesque fashion, hindered him from leading the liberation missions anymore. Instead, he focused on running Bramblebush, a town named after the same shrub Moses seen set ablaze. It was Slash's version of Eden, a place where Black people could be free from the horrors of chattel slavery. The people who presided in the town were free from those fears, but Le'xander couldn't escape his own.
No longer the terrified boy Slash found, Le'xander grew into a man who was granted, as Slash thought, to lead The Nation's missions. The honor of delivering a people who look like him, from racist tyrants resonated with Le'xander like wolves resonate with the moon. But just like the rainbow after a treacherous storm, the feeling wouldn't last forever.
One muggy summer morning, where the humid heat of Georgia stalked you–a type of morning where mosquitoes buzzed and flies flew–Le'xander, now twenty-three, sulked through town. He dragged his anchored feet through the hardened red-clay that was soaked in steady sun rays robbing the dirt of its soft nature. Le'xander's head swooped and swayed in between his shoulders, staring at his feet with the melody of a lazily swinging hammock. A group of boisterous men alerted him to look, but it was nothing more than a group of railroad workers drunk with more than laughter tumbling out of the saloon. They chose to enjoy their day off, drinking away their aches and pains before going back to their homestead. The metal from children-thrown horseshoes amid a Pitch game rang in his ears. Thick-thighed, cornbread-fed women, who shuffled about and carried the town's gossip in their hips, waved hello at Le'xander. He gave a half-hearted smile keeping his hands securely thrust into his pockets and continued on his way. Years of nights where he was robbed of sleep, drenched pillows full of sweat, and daydreams transformed into nightmares occupied his thoughts. Freedom didn't seem so free, after all.

DETROIT DIARY
Tumblr media
Did this with Mankind Divided and thought it could be fun to do again! I’ve gone through this game twice already with friends (Both Pacifist runs) so I’m quite familiar with that part of the story. What I do want to explore now is all the bad choices which I’m an expert in (at least in real life) so let’s see where this adventure will go! Have fun guessing what scenarios I’m playing
NO NONSENSE, SAVE THE FISH
Aquarium must be a Heavy Rain throw back
“My name is Connor, I’m the android send by Cyberlife”
Connor, you know I love you but I’ll throw you off this building for fun, no hard feelings
Weee Todd time, I can’t wait to punch him. Or shoot. Or whatever it is you can
Hmmm this reminds me of something but I can’t put my finger on it
Wow, littering asshole! Pick that one up right now you lazy fuck
Let’s try and avoid that angry mop this time
Wow, getting mad at the Roomba now as well? Poor Roomba, it did nothing wrong 8C
Fuck this shit
Y ARE THERE DRUGS IN THE WASHING POWDER THAT NASTY LEARN TO HIDE STUFF  PROPERLY
Gun and anti-depressants, we all know what a good combo that is
I hope this means what I think it does
STOP! But can we all just take a moment to appreciate how beautiful the soundtrack is for this game?! <3
ANDROID BIRDS ANDROID BIRDS
Speed chess, is that an actual thing??
Okay, but how fun could it be if you could fuck up the painting quick time event and paint like, a blob or a stick figure!?
COOKIECUT
Alright, I like Hank and Connors relationship and it’s gonna be weird to knock it down in hostile territory
Oh, that’s a valid point. Not only are you a good boi, you are an expensive AF boi as well. Good luck paying the bill, Hank
ATMOSPHERE! RAIN! LIGHTNING!
Stormy night! Been looking forward to replay this; what other outcomes are there!?
Gonna move, bitch
As a good American, let’s grab the gun first
GODDAMMIT KARA Y DIDN’T U JUST SHOOT!? U HAD ONE FUCKING JOB
….Well, that was anti-climatic….
Seen both outcomes for this but for the sake fucking up the relationship with Carl  - PUSH!
MOVE, I GOT THE DADDY PANTS ON
STRESS, SHOOTING, DEATH
Would have loved to try the Motel but for the sake of Connor and Ralph, CREEPY HOUSE
Mud intensifies
Jayden did that much better, Markus
OMG HE’S SO CUTE I CAN’T EVEN!
Only thing here is trying to be douchebag towards Gavin?  -Did not go as planned, I am disappointed ;C
Sorry Connor but I am doing this for the lols
Ralph just needs a hug :C
THIS OST IS NICE
Run Kara run, I have much more fun stuff planned for you guys! I think. Actually, I don’t know what to do with you yet.
FUCK THIS PART
Wow, this scene is so much shorter now lol
Hmmm had hoped for some variation in the interactions here :/
Birds birds birds
Do we save or do we not? Let’s do none of it
This is just sad
Always trust a shady dude named Zlatko
is it actually possible to escape the reset? It is but gotta be quick!
Wow, so much shit is stored here - is that a cyborg polar bear???
I just ripped a dude’s heart out :D
Does that make me a murderer? Oh wait already killed Todd! I’m a good mother! Be proud of me Alice 
What do I want? Saving my child from a psychopathic mad man as time is running out! When do I want to do it? Just after I’ve read these magazines and watched TV
I wanna get Alice and Kara killed here, science you know
When you wanna kill your character but you are SAVED BY A GODDAMN POLAR BEAR
I find the doorbell hilarious - my humor is beyond salvation
The slap as well… I need help
Whatever, just kill the guy
Shooting people in the back since 2k38, true hero
No differences really but whatever, that merry-go-round scene is beautiful
This scenery is beautiful as well T_T I live for the snow in this game. And headshots  
Markus, this is Adam calling, he wants his coat and fashion style back
TRUMP
That was sarcasm, Connor. Know where to stick it?
Not much new stuff here really but for the sake of the graveyard, let’s do this
I feel this would have worked much better in the previous run
this is just sad
HELLO POLICEMAN
Hide evidence? Nah fuck it, let’s see what happens!
Oh, I got Luther murdered SORRY ALICE
I’m gonna burn this place to the ground
VIOLENCE
I guess the true way to go is pacifist but damn, violence just suits Markus so much better
Okay this relationship thing is getting painful :C
Hmmmmmm
VIOLENCE! I like this Markus much better!
I think North is pissed
Fuck u North
I’m going South
No, wait Hank D:
OH MY GOD HE ACTUALLY SAID BROMANCE AND THAT FUCKING SMILE
Okay this is so messed up but badass as well  
Oh, well fuck you too!!
….Oh….
Oh, so Lucy is Luther’s stand in! Hmmm liked Luther better here, sounds weird with her
Okay I lowkey hope MB will make a Detroit collection as they did with Deus Ex!  Who am I kidding, I’ll never be able to afford anything… RIP Hengsha-dream still crying for you
Lol, I don’t even have the deviant option
This is like an episode of Game of Thrones
But at least my bromance with Simon is evolving… I think?
Hmmmmm
I’m a horrible human being but my Markus is anger Markus
Bye Carl
Oh
:CCCCCCCCC
T_T T_T T_T
WHY!?
Okay, revolution Markus is sooo much cooler than pacifist Markus!
DO YOU HEAR THE PEOPLE SING?
I don’t remember your name but killing you + your henchmen was awesome!
This is so messed up
PRESS X TO ALICE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I SHOULD FEEL BAD FOR LAUGHING
Oh hi Ralph, fancy meeting you here!
Taking control of ma boi because fuck you guys!
So I know successfully hitting all the buttons will result in headshotting Markus but I accidentally missed some and that was extra fun!!! I got to rip off his arm and break his neck :DDD And of course shoot him in the head for a good measure :DD I’m enjoying this way too much….. halp
Hmmm picking you Ralph because character development!
What a sad sad scenery…. I can’t imagine what it would feel like to be tossed out like garbage
Wow wow something is wrong with your face!! And what’s up with that high collar thing!? This looks weird, please go away you are not my Connor!!
Okay so to sum it up:
I made Markus die hated and cursed by basically everyone including teammates and Jericho. Deliberately killed Carl, Josh, North, Simon and half of Jericho because I’m an angry ball of vengeance. 
Kara tried her best to be a good mum but kinda fucked it up and got Luther killed. Left alone with Alice as the sole survivors in a massgrave knowing she had to let friend die in order to escape.
Connor was cold AF, made Hank commit suicide and killed everything in the name of Cyberlife only to be tossed out like garbage in the end.
All in all, I would say I got a pretty good ending, 10/10 :DDDD
