Make Them Proud
Charles Leclerc x Bianchi!Reader
Summary: Charles canât help but thinking of those he lost after finally claiming victory at his home race
The sheets are tangled around your legs as you trace lazy patterns across Charlesâ bare chest. His breathing is deep and steady, but you can tell from the crinkle between his eyebrows that his mind is racing. A small smile plays across your lips as you watch the moonlight cast shadows along the contours of his face.
âYou want to say something,â you murmur, your fingers tracing the line of his jaw. âI can tell.â
Charles opens his eyes slowly, blinking a few times before focusing on you. A tender expression softens his features as he gazes at you.
âHow did you know?â He asks, his voice low and rumbly from sleep.
You shrug one shoulder. âCall it a girlfriendâs intuition.â
He chuckles softly, reaching up to tuck a stray strand of hair behind your ear. âI should know better than to try and hide anything from you.â
Propping yourself up on one elbow, you raise an inquisitive eyebrow. âWell? Whatâs on your mind, mister race winner?â
A myriad of emotions flicker across Charlesâ face â pride, awe, a hint of melancholy. He worries his lower lip between his teeth for a moment before speaking.
âI was just thinking about Jules. And Papa,â he admits quietly. âWondering if ⊠if I made them proud today.â
The vulnerability in his voice causes a lump to form in your throat. You reach out, cupping his cheek in your palm as his eyes shine with unshed tears.
âCharles ...â you breathe out his name like a prayer. âOf course you made them proud. How could you even doubt that?â
He lets out a shaky exhale, leaning into your touch. âI know, I just ⊠it means so much to me, you know? Racing for them, honoring their memories.â
Nodding slowly, you shift until youâre lying with your head on his chest, the steady thump of his heartbeat grounding you.
âThey know that, mon cĆur,â you soothe. âThey know how much today meant to you, how hard youâve worked, how much youâve sacrificed. Theyâre so incredibly proud of the man youâve become.â
Charles wraps his arms tightly around you, burying his face in your hair. You can feel the tension slowly melting from his body as he draws strength from your embrace.
âYouâre right,â he finally mumbles against your temple. âI know youâre right. Itâs just ⊠sometimes the pressure feels so immense, you know? Like the weight of their legacies is on my shoulders.â
Pulling back, you frame his face with your hands, forcing him to meet your earnest gaze.
âCharles Leclerc, you listen to me,â you state firmly. âJules and HervĂ© loved you so much, their pride in you had nothing to do with racing. They adored you for the incredible man you have always been â your kindness, your passion, your heart.â
You lean in, resting your forehead against his as you choose your next words carefully.
âWhile I know they would be honored that you race for them, carrying on their legacies ⊠I also know theyâd want you to race for yourself. For the pure love of the sport that burns within you.â
Charlesâ breath hitches, his eyes glistening with fresh tears. You smooth the pad of your thumb along his cheekbone, willing him to understand the depth of your conviction.
âYou donât have to prove anything to them, mon amour. Just being your amazing self is enough to make them proud every single day.â
A tremulous smile curves Charlesâ lips as the tears finally spill over, tracking glistening paths down his cheeks. He surges forward, capturing your lips in a searing kiss filled with every ounce of love, gratitude and adoration he feels for you in that moment. You melt into him, tangling your fingers in his hair as you return the kiss with fervent passion.
When you finally break apart, breathless and giddy, Charles gazes at you with an expression of pure wonder.
âHow did I get so lucky?â He murmurs reverently. âTo have someone like you in my life, who understands me so completely?â
You let out a teasing laugh, booping his nose lightly with your fingertip. âYears of practice, Leclerc. Years of practice.â
Chuckling, he pulls you back against his chest, pressing a lingering kiss to the top of your head. You snuggle impossibly closer, relishing in the heat of his embrace.
âThank you,â he whispers, his voice thick with emotion. âFor everything. For being my rock, my voice of reason ⊠my home.â
You press a soft kiss over his wildly beating heart in acknowledgment. No words are needed â you both understand the depths of your connection, the invisible cord that binds your souls together.
As you lay there, tangled in his arms while the first rays of dawn creep through the curtains, you canât help but feel an overwhelming sense of peace and contentment. The roar of the crowds, the scream of the engines, the flashing lights of the cameras â it all fades into blessed silence.
In this moment, cocooned in your own private world, there is only Charles. Your brave, sensitive, extraordinary Charles. And he is yours, just as you are utterly and completely his.
Tomorrow, the whirlwind will begin again. But tonight ⊠tonight is just for the two of you. Two hearts, bound by the most precious and unbreakable of ties â love.

Double the trouble | Yelenaâs day | n romanoff
Double the trouble AU
Summary: itâs finally Yelenaâs turn to babysit the twins⊠a big responsibility for a usually messy Russian.
Age: 4
Warnings: none
wc: 4.3k
note: Double the trouble is back! The twins are back, and so is the cuteness. Sorry for making you wait so long!
-â§-
âMamaâs got to go, Y/n.â
âMama go, Y/n go!â
Why was she even arguing with a four year old at this point? Natasha was crouched by the front door, her work purse resting against her calf as she held onto a whiny four year who was pouting hard.
âAunty Yelena is coming today, youâre going to have so much fun!â Despite how animated her voice was, Y/n was not impressed and she pushed herself further into Natashaâs arms, grabbing the collar of her suit jacket in her little fists. âCome on baby, please.â
âNo!â Great. She was still in the ânoâ phase, much to the momsâ disdain. âNo Lena, only you!â
Natasha sighed and stood back up, absentmindedly smoothing over her daughterâs curls as she looked over to the kitchen. Yelena was going to be there any minute and Wanda was packing the last few snack items into her purse whilst Isla showed her a drawing sheâd done for her favourite aunt. She was a lot more accepting of extended family members and had been babbling about Yelenaâs visit for weeks⊠until Y/n threw a barbie at her head.
With a sigh, Natasha hauled Y/n up to sit on her hip and wandered into the kitchen with a soft smile at her wife who looked so gracious in her red summer dress.
âAny word from Yelena?â She asked, holding Y/n tight. âThis one isnât too happy weâre leaving.â
Wanda approached the pair and kissed her daughterâs head, laughing a little at her scowl. âShould be any minute now, I hope,â she replied. âDo you girls want a snack?â
âFruit roll ups?â Y/n was now suddenly interested, her head lifting from the comfort of Natashaâs shoulder. Ever food orientated, she was.
âI want fruit roll ups too!â Isla chimed in, finally putting her markers down as she added the finishing touches to her drawing. âStrawberry one?â
âIâm sure I can manage that,â Wanda said as she turned around from the cupboard, two snacks in hand. Y/n wriggled out of Natashaâs grip and ran over, but not before Wanda instructed her to sit at the table like normal. Snacks were never eaten standing up in their house, it was the paranoid mothersâ number one rule.
Natasha checked her watch anxiously, watching her time slip away as she waited for her sister. Punctuality wasnât Yelenaâs strong suit, but as the clock struck ten, there was a loud knock at the door and Natasha was pulling it open before the twins could even react.
âWhere are my munchkins?â The loud blonde announced, tossing her bag by the door and completely ignoring Natasha as she stepped inside. But the redhead was used to people bypassing her and Wanda to get to the twins, she knew how gorgeous her daughters were.
âHello to you too⊠again,â Natasha muttered, more to herself than her sister who was too busy trying to call the twins as if they were dogs.
Isla was the first to greet her favourite aunt, her arms and legs flailing as she launched her small body at the blonde Russian, giggling as she was caught and spun around. Y/n was still chewing away at her snack but she watched their interaction from her seat, shaking her head at Wandaâs offer to go and see.
Y/n was bubbly until she was around anyone who wasn't her moms. Then she clammed up, often ducking behind her curls to avoid eye contact or hiding behind Natashaâs legs if she was close by. She didnât trust anywhere near as easily as Isla did and was always the last one to approach.
âY/n? Doesnât Aunty Lena get a hug?â
Y/nâs eyes darted between her Mama and her Aunt, debating hard. With some reluctance, she slid off her chair and wandered over to Yelena, but only for Natashaâs benefit. The last thing she wanted was her Mama getting mad at her over not cooperating⊠again.
âWhat are you eating?â Yelena asked, gesturing to the small piece of food still clutched in the young girlâs hand.
âWe had fruit roll ups!â Isla exclaimed, grinning widely at Yelenaâs animated expression.
âNo way!â Even Y/n was smiling now, waving her snack up at Yelena. âI loved them as a kid!â
Natasha smiled fondly at the scene in front of her. She knew how much Isla loved Yelena, she babbled on enough as it is, and she also knew of Y/nâs hesitancy. But seeing her now, almost completely out of her shell, talking over the top of her sister in an attempt to hold Yelenaâs attention, Natasha felt pride blooming in her chest and she wished to capture this moment forever.
Wanda appeared at her side, her smile mirroring her wifeâs as she took her hand. âReady to go?â
Natasha nodded and squared her shoulders in her fitted suit jacket. âYelena, weâre going to be late. Do you have everything you need? Weâll be back at 6, thereâs lunch in the fridge, all you need to do is heat it up. And donât let Y/n run too much because she has her heart check up next week- oh and Isla canât have raspberries because sheâs allergic so donât-â
âYes yes,â Yelena waved her off, effectively pushing her sister out of the door. âYou worry too much, weâll be fine, wonât we girls?â Isla cheered and Y/n copied, luckily too engrossed with her sister to notice her moms were leaving.
âIf anything happens, I mean anything, call me and weâll be back as soon as we can.â Natasha was a typical worried mother and she hated leaving her girls alone, even if they were in the questionably capable hands of Yelena.
âNat, honey, theyâre going to be okay,â Wanda tried to reassure, rubbing her hand up and down her wifeâs arm. âItâs only a few hours and you need this deal to go through. You deserve it baby.â
Natasha bit her lip, watching the twins who were running around chasing each other in the hallway. She so desperately wanted to stay with them as much as she could before they started kindergarten, but her business in the city was for a deal with a bank that would allow her to open up her very own dance studio, as opposed to the small rented rooms she was currently using. It was her dream and she couldnât give it up now.
âI know, I know,â the redhead muttered, more to convince herself than anyone else. With a final smile from Wanda, the couple disappeared down the driveway and used the twinsâ moment of distraction to make a tear-free getaway.
âRight, rascal 1, rascal 2, who wants to go to the park?â Yelena clapped her hands together as the door shut and the girls halted in their steps.
âMe! I got the wiggles!â They chorused.
âWell we need to get those wiggles out, donât we!â
Yelena inspected their outfits and quickly concluded that their matching dungarees was an appropriate park choice. She would never admit it to Natasha, but sheâd been reading books and online articles ever since Natasha asked her to babysit. Making a good impression was the one thing the blonde wanted so desperately, and she was determined to make sure everything went right.
After tying both pairs of converse to two sets of small feet and retying one of the pigtails in Islaâs hair, Yelena checked her backpack for her supplies and they were ready to go. It was an indescribable feeling to have her nieces clutching her hands as they walked down the street and Yelena finally understood how her sister had such a hard time leaving her daughters.
Isla babbled away for the whole ten minute walk, mainly talking about Fanny and how she wished she was here with them. Y/n listened happily, more than content just fiddling with the rings on her auntâs fingers as they stopped at a crossing. It had been a month since theyâd last spent time with their aunt and almost a year since their first meeting, and Y/n had definitely warmed up to her in that time. Which gave Yelena immense pride and huge bragging rights.
The sun really had chosen the right day to shine and Yelena made sure both girls were lathered in sunscreen before she allowed them to run free, laughing as they both made a beeline for the swing. Isla climbed up on the horse shaped seat just beside the swing set easily, her giggles echoing through the park as it began to move.
Y/n didnât have quite the same luck. She couldnât quite reach the swing she wanted and turned back to Yelena with a pout, her hands grabbing at the plastic.
âHold on malyshka, Iâm coming.â The blonde ran over and scooped up her youngest niece, tickling her stomach a little before slotting her legs in the holes of the swing. Y/nâs pout disappeared as quickly as it appeared and she chanted âhigherâ as Yelena gently pushed her.
Yelena didnât let her go too high, but she watched as Y/n stretched her legs out in front of her and lifted her arms, almost as if she was flying.
âLâIsla look!â She yelled at her sister. âIâm flying! Iâm a birdie!â
Isla looked for a moment but was far too invested in her own activities to care too much, so Y/n just kept shouting for Yelena to push her higher, to which her aunt obeyed.
They were content on the swings for a while until Y/n got distracted by the slide. Yelena was grateful to give her arms a break, even though sheâd have pushed her nieces for hours if theyâd have asked. Taking a seat on the bench beside the slide, she watched as the energetic four year olds ran around and slid down the slide, wriggling the whole way down.
It was adorable the way they played together, often hand in hand as they circled the giant wooden structure. Isla always climbed up first before helping her sister up the last section, taking her âbigâ sister duties very seriously.
âAunty Lena, watch!â Y/n yelled, holding onto the red handle by the little slide as she tapped her feet together. âIâm gonna go fast!â
âIâm watching, little bug, go on.â
Y/n let go and slid down, stopping at the bottom with a grin as Yelena clapped. She raced over, breathing hard, and grabbed her little water bottle to take a sip.
âThat was very impressive,â Yelena said, taking the bottle from Y/n when she was done. âLook, letâs watch Isla now.â She put her arms around Y/nâs stomach and held her in place as they watched Isla slide down before she too came running over, asking for her water.
âHave you both been practising your slides?â Isla nodded between sips.
âMommy takes us to the park after pre-k.â
âAnd she gets us ice cream.â Y/n flashed a cheesy grin, trying to win over Yelena even more than she already had.
âWell, if we see the ice cream truck, then maybe.â A chorus of âyayâs sounded and Yelena felt like the coolest aunt on the planet. It didnât matter that the girls already loved her to pieces, every time they smiled at her it thawed her heart and she was sure that one day she would be charged with kidnapping for stealing them both. If she barely coped with them now, prom night and graduation would hit her like a truck.
âCan we go play again?â Y/n asked, bouncing on her toes like she was eager to run off. Yelena gave them the all clear and she sprinted away with Isla yelling her name as they approached the climbing frame. Y/n scrambled up the smaller side and whizzed down the slide before Isla could stop her.
âY/n!â Isla yelled, running back over to her sister who was sat at the bottom of the slide. âYou canât run!â She tapped her sisterâs chest where her heart was before taking her hand and dragging her back to the steps. âSlowly. Mommy always says slowly.â
âI just want to play,â she huffed, placing her palm on her chest. âIâm fine.â
âIâll tell Mommy!â Isla didnât really understand what she was supposed to tell Wanda, but the threat was enough and Y/n walked away scowling to find the sand pit. It was slightly sludgy from the rain a few days ago so she wandered around the park again before going back to Isla and giving her a hug.
âYou play on the bridge with me?â
âOnly if I get to be the pirate!â
âIâll be mermaid.â
Yelena watched from her spot on the bench, her phone resting in her hand as she filmed the girls playing. The park was relatively empty, only three other children were playing. But they looked older than the twins and so kept to themselves, which the blonde was grateful for. She wasnât all that trusting of other peopleâs kids.
There was something relaxing about watching them play. It took her mind off everything else and every time the girls flashed her a smile she felt herself soften. Her sister really had won the family lottery and she felt so grateful to be an established part of their lives as they grew up. Swearing off having kids forever, this was the only way Yelena would purposefully interact with children and she was totally okay with that. The best thing about her nieces was that she could spoil them as much as she wanted and then let her sister deal with the inevitable sugar rush that followed.
An hour went by before Y/n and Isla trudged over once more, significantly more dishevelled than they were before. Long gone were the pigtails, their curls now wild about their shoulders, the colour almost matching their rosy cheeks.
âDid you have fun?â
âI think I got a rock in my shoe,â Y/n whined, standing on one leg like a flamingo. Isla went to sit on the bench as Yelena sorted out Y/nâs shoe, shaking the pieces of gravel that were stuck to her sock. âIce cream?â
âI donât think the ice cream truck is here, malyshka,â Yelena admitted, her heart breaking at their disappointed faces. âBut we can get some at home, how does that sound?â
âI donât want to go home!â Isla pouted, folding her arms in a little tantrum. Y/n copied her, leaning against Yelena as she stood between her legs. âWant to stay here forever!â
âAre you guys not hungry? All that running around, Iâm sure your bellies are grumbling at you.â To prove her point, she tickled Y/nâs stomach, mainly to hear more of the adorable giggles she loved so much.
After some reluctance and agreement that cookies will be provided with lunch, they made the slow walk home. Y/n was dragging her feet, begging to be carried despite Yelena saying no. She couldnât carry both of them, even if it was evident how tired Y/n was.
To brighten their mood, she started singing an old Russian song, making everyone march in time with her singing as they turned down the final street. The twins had no idea what she was singing about but their spirits were lifted and they marched happily, swinging their arms and nodding their heads as best as they could.
A quick clean up was needed as they got back home to wash away the park germs, but with soap bubbles and a mini water fight, Yelena managed to make even the most mundane activities interesting. She distracted the twins with some colouring pages whilst she located and heated up the pasta dish that Wanda had left in the fridge, instructions written on a bright yellow post it note.
The mothers really had thought of everything, which made the Blondeâs job ten times easier as she sectioned the food onto the twinâs trays. Pink and orange, just the way they preferred it.
With two tired out toddlers seated at the table, hands washed and lunch served, a quietness descended on the house as they tucked in and Yelena allowed herself a moment to breathe. Natasha and Wanda must be superpowered, she thought to herself, because doing this everyday must be exhausting. She couldnât wait for a nap.
But when was Yelenaâs life this idyllic for long? It certainly didnât last and the blonde had just finished her pasta before she heard the sniffles beginning. Isla looked happy enough, but the same couldnât be said for the red-eyed and teary girl beside her.
âY/n whatâs wrong?â Yelena asked, her brows furrowing in confusion. âDo you not like it?â
âI want Mama,â she spluttered, her bottom lip trembling as tears rolled down her cheeks. She brought her fists up to wipe her eyes but it didnât stop them much. âI want Mama!â
âOh malyshka, sheâll be back soon, I promise.â But Yelenaâs words did little to comfort the young girl. âDo you want to eat a little bit more?â Her plate was hardly touched, only a few pieces of cucumber and pasta gone from her portion.
Whilst her sister cried, Isla looked at her own empty plate and back at Y/nâs, the little cogs in her head turning. Having such empathetic mothers had rubbed off on her and she looked at the little chocolate chip cookie sitting on the dessert section of her plate for a second.
âY/n/n, do you want my cookie?â She grabbed it and pushed it towards her sister who stopped sniffling for a second to nod, taking the treat even if she had her own on her plate.
Yelena had to stop herself aweing out loud and she pulled her phone out as quickly as she videoed as much of the interaction as she could for Natasha and Wanda.
âThat was kind of you Isla, well done.â
âSheâs just noisy,â Isla answered back, her lips curling up in disgust that looked quite comical. Clearly she hadnât changed and her sister crying was still just as annoying.
Yelena stifled her laugh and stood up to grab another cookie to replace Islaâs lost one. Her attitude at four years old was a clear indicator that Wanda and Natasha were going to have their work cut out as she grew up, especially combined with her âolder sister complexâ.
Y/n had eaten half of the cookie, the distraction working, before she quickly realised why she was crying in the first place. She locked eyes with Yelena and let the tears fall once more, wanting nothing more than a hug as her active morning caught up with her.
âY/n itâs okay, itâs okay,â she tried to comfort once more, rounding the table to give the young girl a cuddle. âWhy donât we all go and find a movie to watch, hm?
âMermaids?â Y/n asked between sobs, holding on tight to Yelenaâs t shirt as she was lifted into her arms.
âIsla, do you want to watch The Little Mermaid?â The girl nodded, hopping down off her chair and running into the living room.
âCome on, big girl, letâs go get comfy and you can have all the cuddles you need, yeah?â Y/n sobbed into Yelenaâs neck and held on tighter, more like a koala than a child. But Yelena never refused hugs from her nieces, not whilst they were still young and small enough to want to spend hours on her lap.
Isla had dug through the dvd shelf, leaving a mess on the floor, to find the most worn case holding their current favourite film. She passed it to Yelena and jumped onto the couch, sitting beside Y/n who was holding the corner of the soft blanket to her chest with a frown.
âDonât be sad, we can see Sebastian! And Ariel.â Isla suddenly gasped, turning to her aunt crouched by the dvd player. âAunty Lena!â
âYes, lenya?â (Sunshine).
âAriel has hair like me and Y/n/n! Does that mean weâre princesses?â
Yelena smiled to herself and settled on the couch between the two girls, Y/n immediately crawling onto her lap as Isla snuggled into her side.
âOf course youâre both princesses. What does that make me?â
âThe evil queen,â Y/n mumbled, giggling as Yelena gasped dramatically. The opening credits of the Disney movie sounded in the background but no one paid attention as the twins erupted into laughter over Yelenaâs expression.
âThe evil queen? What!â
âYes!â Isla squealed. âEvil queen!â
âYour mama didnât tell me you both are little terrors!â She exclaimed, grabbing Isla by the foot so she couldnât wriggle away. âI canât believe you!â
âI didnât say it!â Isla tried to defend herself, but Yelena was having none of it. âPlease, Aunty Lena please!â
Yelena let go of her foot and turned Y/n around so she was facing her on her knee. âOkay then, what about Mama? Is she a princess?â
âMama always a princess!â
âOkay,â Yelena said, wondering how her sister would take anyone but her daughter calling her a princess. âIs Mommy a princess too?â
Isla nodded frantically. âYeah! We all princesses!â
âBut Aunty Yelena isnât?â She faked an offended expression, sending Y/n into another giggle fit. Which was a lot better than the tears that had dried on her cheeks.
âNo youâre the evil queen!â
âOr Sâbastian!â
Yelena paused, tapping her fingers on her chin in thought. âSo⊠a singing crab, or a witch? Thatâs all I get?â The twins both nodded before Y/n stood on the couch and leaned to Yelenaâs ear.
âSâbastian is my favourite,â she murmured before flopping back onto Yelenaâs lap, her arms leaning on her chest. Yelena felt her heart clench, why were these kids so goddamn cute?
Only thirty minutes into the film, Isla had stretched herself out along the couch so Yelena wrapped both arms around Y/n whose head was flopping to the side as she tried to fight the sleep. But the combination of hearing Disney songs and feeling Yelena stroking her stomach had her falling asleep in a matter of minutes. Isla was watching, but barely. They really had tired themselves out for today, which made Yelenaâs job a lot easier.
The jingle of keys in the door woke Yelena from her accidental nap and her heart shot to her stomach momentarily before she realised both twins were still asleep safe and sound. With Y/nâs dead weight sprawled out across her chest, she could do nothing but wait for Natasha to find her, the overplayed soundtrack of the title page luring the attentive mothers towards the living room.
Natasha had her suit jacket hanging over her arm and her white button up shirt was unbuttoned slightly lower than normal, but she still looked professional in her black slacks. Yelena craned her neck over the back of the couch and pressed a finger to her lips, gesturing to the sleeping redheads surrounding her.
âWhat did you do to them?â Wanda whispered as both women rounded the front of the couch. âTheyâre flat out.â
Natasha crouched down by Isla and studied her face momentarily before looking at Yelena with a small laugh. âIâve never seen them so tired. What happened?â
âI let them run out their wiggles in the park,â she began, careful to not disturb Y/n. âAnd then we had a little meltdown so Isla picked a movie.â
âShe got upset?â Wanda asked, concern lacing her tone. It wasnât like her to get upset at all, which set alarm bells ringing in the mothersâ heads.
But Yelena quickly clarified that Y/n was the one with the tears, to which both mothers looked less concerned about.
âShe just kept asking for her Mama, but thatâs probably down to tiredness, right?â
Natasha narrowed her eyes at her sister, slightly unnerved at the calmness that she radiated. Yelena was not a calm or collected person, so this was a weird sight.
âWho are you and what have you done to my sister?â
The blonde rolled her eyes. âShut up. I just did my research, thatâs all.â
Natasha went to tease her about it but Y/n shifted on Yelenaâs lap, the voices disturbing her sleep. She rubbed her eyes softly before blinking them open and almost launching herself at Wanda with a squeal.
âHome! Youâre home!â She squeezed Wanda tight in a hug, the woman melting into her daughterâs embrace as she held her close. There was something so special about welcome home hugs and Natasha didnât feel left out as Isla woke up only seconds later and attacked her Mama with cuddles.
âOh my big girls, we missed you!â Natasha peppered Islaâs face in kisses, having missed the way she squirmed in her arms. âDid you have a good day?â
âThe best day! I love Aunty Lena!â Isla jumped back onto the couch and hugged Yelena tight, allowing Y/n a moment to shuffle over to Natasha and completely lean against her. Nothing would ever beat her Mamaâs hugs. Ever.
âI missed you, babygirl. Are you okay now?â
âMissed you too Mama.â
Natasha stood up and brought Y/n up with her, holding her tightly on her hip as she stretched her legs. She smiled at the familiar feeling of her daughter fiddling with the necklace that lay on her collarbones - she always gravitated towards jewellery.
âYouâre staying the night, right Lena?â Natasha clarified, watching Islaâs face light up as her aunt said yes.
âMore Aunty Lena time!â
âI think itâs safe to say youâve won them over,â Wanda added, shaking her head with a smile. She didn't mind what it was, as long as her girls were happy, she was too.
And no one was injured after Yelenaâs first babysitting adventure, so there would be many more to follow.

sheâs out of her mind
luke castellan x daughter of hades!reader
anon prompt: Hey babes! I saw your post about wanting prompts and I was wondering you could write Luke Castellan x Daughter of Hades! Reader where it's like sunshine (Luke) x grumpy (Reader) trope?
authors note: hello i am back with a small drabble for the cute prompt above! i got drunk off of applebees dollaritas and wrote this in 15mins so do with that information what you will. hope you enjoy! :)
title is from sheâs out of her mind by blink-182. lyrics are a lil fitting.
warnings: none? i think? itâs just fluff, i think. sort of.
âWake up, sunshine.â
You groaned low and deep, releasing a guttural sound full of pure agony. Rolling over on your (extremely warm, cozy, sleep inducing) bed, you came face to face with your boyfriend, Luke Castellan, who was currently opening up the curtains in your cabin.
Being the only child of Hades at the camp, the entire cabin was sparse and empty, save for the corner you called home. There was a bed with black sheets and blanket, a side table full of the few memorabilia you had to your name, and a dresser beside that which held your extensive collection of black clothing. The walls resembled the inner workings of a cavern; slick rock prodded with small bones and beautiful jewels encapsulated the bedroom areas. Sconces held lit torches burning bright with turquoise Greek fire.
Your favourite part of the cabin, though, was the specially-crafted blackout curtains that were typically drawn tight over the windows. Not even a sliver of light could penetrate the thick, black, velvet drapes. That was, until, your idiot boyfriend took it upon himself to draw them open. The harsh blades of sunlight violated your eyes, illiciting your pained groan. You hated it when people interrupted your sleep.
âLuke,â You whined, shoving your face into your pillow, hoping to evade the blinding light. âLet me sleep, please, for the love of the gods.â
âFuck the gods,â Luke said, and you could hear the smirk in his voice without needing to see his (cute, devilishly handsome) face. âAnyways, itâs 9am! Youâve slept in long enough and I wanna have breakfast with you and your pretty face.â Luke flopped down on the bed beside you and flipped your body back over with ease, in a foolish attempt to force you into the world of the living.
Typical for a child of Death, you kept your eyes squeezed shut and pounded the bedsheet with your fist. âI will literally, genuinely, actually murder you without hesitation if you donât leave me the fuck alone.â
âThatâs no way to talk to your boyfriend.â Luke said, pressed a small kiss to your nose. You swatted him away with anger.
Any other (normal, rational, smart) kid at camp wouldâve soiled their pants and fled in terror from such a threat uttered by the one and only daughter of Hades. You were capable of a simple killing â you were graciously bestowed the gift of sucking out the souls of mortals with a mere flick of the wrist â and so it was only logical to fear such a ghastly claim. Luke, however, had released early on in your Camp days that you were full of shit and would never hurt a fly. He took an opportunity to befriend you and youâd been dating for a few years now. You were (truly, madly, deeply) in love with him and yes, despite your immense hatred for morning sunlight, you would never actually hurt him.
âCome on,â he prodded again, cuddling up beside you and tapping your forehead mischievously. You mustered the courage to crack open one eye (barely) and saw him grinning down at you. âWake up, baby. Letâs get breakfast and then spend the day at the docks. We can swim and sun bathe and have a picnicââ
âGods, your ambitious today,â you grumbled, rolling back over to face the opposite direction of Luke (and, the open windows), allowing him to grab your waist and pull you up against his chest. âI hate being in the sun. You know this.â
âYeah, but I like to try new things with you,â Luke said, peppering a few kisses down your jaw and the side of your neck, squeezing his taut arm around your torso. âAnd Iâm dying to see you in a bikini.â
âPerv,â you mumbled, but deep down you felt butterflies erupt in your stomach, causing a crimson blush to bloom over your chest. âGive me another hour to sleep.â
âNo,â Luke said, and now it was his turn to groan impatiently. âPlease, now, for me? I love you and want to spend time with you.â
âI hate you and want you to leave me alone,â you replied, pulling your fluffy duvet back up over your shoulders. âBed time.â
âBeach time,â Luke decided. He sat up slightly and ripped the blankets entirely off your form, exposing your body to the cold air of the morning.
You shrieked. âLuke, you assholeââ
Luke jumped out of the bed, smiling wide. He gathered up all the blankets up into his arms, much to your dismay, and held them away from you. You only wore shorts and a tank top to sleep last night, and the chill in the room froze you right to your bones. Luke bundled up the bedding into a ball and fired it across the room. âThere, now youâre acclimated.â
âYouâre dumb as hell.â
âYou are a grouchy, sleepy demon who needs breakfast and vitamin D.â
âUgh!â You exploded, finally shoving yourself out of bed in a fit of exasperation. Luke had the audacity to applaud you. âOkay, there, Iâm up!â
âSo proud of you, my sleeping beauty,â Luke remarked. He crossed the room to you and placed a tender kiss to your lips, making sure to nip at your pouty bottom lip.
âSorry for being rude,â You murmured, after having kissed him back. âI love you. I just donât love being woken up.â
âI know,â Luke said with a grin. âI actually think youâre cute when your grumpy, so I do it on purpose to bug you.â
You rolled your eyes, but couldnât stop the small smirk from appearing on your cheeks. âWhatever. You promised breakfast and Iâm starving, so letâs go.â
Luke mimicked your playful eyeroll. He took your hand, leading you out the door and towards the dining pavilion.

space au neighbor au steddie
So I wasn't actually sure what a space AU is meant to entail, so I hope a little vaguely Star Trek-inspired AU is okay?? This was a challenging combination, but it was fun!
Fanfiction Trope Mashup: 22. Space AU + 11. Neighbor AU
cw: vague mentions of injury, mentions of background character death
-
Lieutenant Steven Harrington transfers from the U.S.S. Nora and onto the U.S.S. Forrest about six months into the Forrestâs mission. He works in security. He can usually be found stationed somewhere on the ship, but sometimes heâs called up to go planetside.
(Heâs also too pretty for Eddie to believe heâs one hundred percent human, but thatâs neither here nor there.)
Eddie knows all of this because Harrington gets the previously vacant room right next door to his.
It isnât bad, really; sometimes the sound of someone shuffling around on the other side of a wall that had previously been silent is comforting. Much as Eddie loves the hum of the ship around himâyou canât really work in engineering and not be a little enamored of the sound of the engines purringâsometimes human noise is what he craves.
(Particularly out here in the void of space. Eddie loves his job, loves working in the guts of a starship, but he wishes sometimes it didnât come against the backdrop of an endless dark nothingness.)
Eddie doesnât have reason to see Harrington very often during the day, but they work the same shift rotation, and they catch each other coming back to their rooms now and then at the end of a shift. They mostly exchange nods or waves, brief pleasantries if one of them is in the mood, but thatâs really it.
At least, thatâs really it until a few weeks in, when Eddie gets back to his room and sees Harrington still standing outside his own, mashing the buttons on the keypad and swearing quietly.
âEverything alright?â Eddie asks as he draws up at his own door.
Harrington lets out a long sigh. âUh, yeah, justââ He shakes his head. âApparently if you get your code wrong too many times in a row, the keypad locks you out. And you canât get into your quarters. Which is⊠great.â
âYou forget your code?â Eddie canât help but ask.
âNo,â Harrington snaps, then softens a little, looking sheepish, even a little embarrassed. âNo, I justâ sometimes the numbers get a little jumbled.â
âAh.â
âYeah. Anyway, Iâm gonna have to go find someone from maintenance to reset this and let me in, soâŠâ
âNah, donât bother. Youâve got in-built tech support right here.â Eddie gestures for Harrington to move aside and crouches down in front of the keypad to reset it; doors and security locks arenât technically his remit, but itâs not like theyâre hard. Itâs the work of moments to get the keypad to unlock, and Eddie shuffles back out of the way. âGo ahead and try it now.â
Harrington steps up to the keypad and slowly punches in the six-digit code that should get him into his quarters, and this time, instead of beeping angrily and flashing red, it chirps and gives him the green light. His door slides open and Harrington sighs.
âThank you,â Harrington says, turning a smile so bright on Eddie that he momentarily forgets how to function. âYouâre a lifesaver.â
âNah, tâwerenât nothinâ,â Eddie says for some insane reason, slipping into a ridiculous accent like he does when heâs running tabletop games in the rec room with a couple of other guys from engineering.
If Harrington thinks heâs being weird, he mercifully doesnât mention it. Instead, he sticks a hand out towards Eddie, still smiling. âIâm Steve, by the way. I donât think weâve been properly introduced.â
âEddie,â Eddie says, taking the hand to shake (Steveâs hands are big, and strong, and warm, and Eddie tries not to think about it).
âItâs nice to meet you, Eddie. And not even for the obvious reasons,â Steve says, nodding towards his door.
âYeah, you too,â Eddie says.
He then realizes that heâs still shaking Steveâs hand. He lets go, but Steve is slow to draw back. Theyâre quiet for a moment, both unsure how to end the encounter, before Steve lets out a little huff of a laugh.
âWell⊠have a good night,â he says, backing away towards his door.
âYeah, you too,â Eddie says again, wondering where the hell all his eloquence has gone to.
With one last dorky little wave at Eddie, Steve disappears inside his room, and Eddie does the same.
They talk more, after that. Whenever their schedules coincide, they spend an extra few minutes outside their doors, learning more about each other, bit by bit. Eddie talks about why heâd joined up with a starship even though he really hates space (heâd had to get out of his small-minded hometown), and Steve talks about how heâd ended up really enjoying his work even though heâd only joined to appease his dad (captain of another ship, one Steve prays heâll never, ever be assigned to).
Their conversations edge past five minutes, past ten, past fifteen. Eddie talks about his uncle, who taught him at least half of everything he knows about fixing things, who had encouraged him to reach for the stars. Steve talks about his best friend in the galaxy, who works up in communications and speaks âabout a million languages.â He mentions that theyâd met as ensigns, both stationed on the U.S.S. Butterscotch, but he doesnât say much more than that (and Eddie wonât make him; he knows the story already. The ship might have had a ridiculous name, but the fate that had befallen it had been anything but: it had been taken over by hostiles and eventually gone down in flames. The number of survivors had been abysmal, and fact that Steve is here at all is a small miracle).
Steve learns that Eddie loves music and roleplaying games. Eddie learns that Steve has a knack for avoiding medical staff after altercations planetside and for brushing off minor-to-moderate injuries.
Heâs not as good at avoiding Eddie, however, who makes a point of dragging him down to medical one evening after spotting a still-bleeding gash on Steveâs arm.
âOne of these days, youâre gonna come back with something you canât walk off,â Eddie warns him, âand Iâll be there to say I told you so.â
âWell, as long as youâre going to be there, I guess it wonât be so bad,â Steve replies, and Eddie tries not to be swayed by the flirting.
When Eddie turns out to be right, though, he doesnât even have the heart to say I-told-you-so, which he feels a bit cheated about later.
The evening starts out so promisingly: Steve and Eddie are loitering outside their doors, Steve gravitating further and further into Eddieâs space as they talk, and Eddie is just about to pluck up the nerve to invite Steve inside when Steveâs communicator goes off.
He frowns, pulling it from his pocket to check the message, and his demeanor immediately turns serious. âI have to go,â he says, and apprehension prickles at the base of Eddieâs skull.
âEverything alright?â Eddie asks.
âIâm sure itâll be fine.â Steve offers Eddie a brief smile. âWe can pick up where we left off as soon as this is taken care of.â
Eddie wants to ask just what âthisâ is, but he finds out soon enough. The promising evening turns into a hellish night with too little sleep and too many hits to the machinery for comfort, under attack from some unknown, hostile force. When things finally calm down and reports start rolling in, things arenât as bad as they could be. No casualties, minor damage to the ship, and minimal injuries. It sounds reassuring, until Eddie finds himself standing next to Steveâs bed in the infirmary.
âIâm going to be fine. Stop looking at me like that,â Steve says, even though his eyes are closed and he canât possibly know how Eddie is looking at him.
And the thing is, Eddie knows heâs right â Steve might sound an awful lot like heâs in pain right now, but the medical tech on the ship is top of the line, and the staff is equally good. Steve will be fine, but that doesnât give Eddie any comfort right then, realizing how lost he would feel without his and Steveâs hallway conversations every day.
How lost he would feel without Steve.
It scares himâ for a moment, it scares him enough that he wants to run from it, to put a halt to things before they get too serious, before this really hurts him. But even more than that, thereâs a feeling greater than the fear: one of rightness when heâs with Steve, a feeling thatâs worth the risk, thatâs worth holding onto.
Eddie reaches out and takes Steveâs hand where it rests on the bed.
Steve cracks his eyes open to look at Eddie.
âYou knowâŠâ he says slowly. âThey said I should be fine on my own by tomorrow, good to go back to my own quarters, butâ Iâd feel a lot better if there was someone nearby. Just in case.â
âLike someone right next door?â Eddie asks, a tease of a smile beginning to grow on his face.
âMaybe a little closer than that,â Steve says, squeezing Eddieâs hand in his own.
âI think I can do that,â Eddie says, finding that heâs prepared to do a lot of things, if it means he can keep Steve close.

Robert's Laundry Service | Neighbor!Robert "Bob" Floyd
Summary: A broken washing machine and a clogged bathroom sink lead you and Robert to explore the next part of your secret relationship.
Word Count: 3.3k
Warnings: Bob Floyd x afab!reader, no use of pronouns, no y/n, a little angsty, very smutty, 18+ ONLY as always, unprotected PinV, use of sex toys, language, a lot of cum mentions, neighbor!Bob being perfect as usual
A Note From Mo: Did anyone else miss neighbor!Bob? He needed some love, and that's what he's getting today! Thank you to @roosterforme for inspiring this idea that I took entirely too far. If anyone needs me, I'm going to be hoping that he moves into the empty apartment next to mine đ p.s. this takes place before Stupid White Car
Itâs hard to pay attention to the bad diagnosis heâs giving when your visual is just those threadbare grey sweats. Painted to his strong thighs, poking out from behind the washer like a personal serving of eye candy. Youâre meant to be shining the flash light, but you long abandoned that task in favor of the view.
ââŠyou can borrow mine in the meantime. Iâll call a guy Monday.â
Reluctantly, you draw your eyes from his lower half. Just as his words sink in.
âItâs broken?!â
Robert gives you a kindly amused grin. âSweetheart, did you hear anything Iâve been saying?â
You grace him with a sheepish smile, caught red-handed.
âThe tube disconnected from the wall and needs to be properly - professionally - connected before you use it again. I know itâs not the same, but you can do laundry at mine until someone comes out. I can make you tea and we can watch that undercover dating show you like?â His soft smile is as sweet as his offer.
You narrow your eyes at him playfully. âHey now, you like that show too.â
Those cornflower blues shine, glad youâre not objecting. âI do, but only because itâs funny when you yell at the drama.â
He wraps his arm around your waist and guides you away from the laundry, back to where the two of you had been trying to decide on takeout over a game of checkers. Allowing him to drag you down to the couch, hips colliding into the soft fabric, you resume a lovely afternoon with Robert.Â
Robert, your helpful Mr. Fix It neighbor. And maybe, one day, your boyfriend.
Robert lending you his laundry room for the weekend is so generous. It feels a bit silly carrying your delicates through his back yard (especially when you know a few pairs are crusty from yourâŠsleepovers) but youâll take his selfless offer if it means clean laundry and a lovely afternoon spent with him.Â
As you work your way past the kitchen, youâre caught off-guard once again by how charming his home is. The little bits of personality, the framed photographs and handmade trinkets. While you know he canât get any more perfect, his home makes a compelling argument.
The laundry room is fairly unremarkable - washer, dryer, large farmhouse sink for the unsavory jobs too nasty for the kitchen - but you do like his view of the neighborhood from the window. Youâre almost curious if anyone will walk by and notice you standing in the wrong house, lacy balconette bra in hand.
Already regretting the amount of folded laundry youâre going to have to haul back through the gate after this, you begin prepping a load of lace and satin. Brainstorming ways to expedite the process, you overshoot pouring detergent into the water-filled drum and spill the cobalt goo all over your hand. Shit.
You rush over to the sink, subjecting yourself to freezing water to wash the detergent off your fingers. Once sufficiently clean, you reach for a cloth to dry off. And thatâs when you see it.Â
Oh. Youâve never seen one in real life before, just in porn and the odd naughty ad while scrolling. It almost feels as if youâre being punkâd. Like if you sliced through it, it would actually be cake.
A cock ring, soft silicone and all. Casually sitting on the sideboard, freshly cleaned.
Every muscle in your body freezes as the implications of seeing something so private wash over you. Something meant between lovers that you had never seen in the weeks since that fateful night you let him in for a cup of tea.Â
Itâs been a few days since you had last slept over. A scary sinking feeling fills your gutâŠwas there someone else?Â
You had been so focused on the neighborhood not knowing. Staying in your homes, using the back gate. It wasnât like you had ever verbalized your intentions with him. You couldnât blame him for thinking the two of you as casual, as much as it twisted your insides.
As your thoughts spiral, thereâs motion in the doorway and Robert is suddenly there, big shoulders and a soft smile on his face at seeing you in his space. Exactly where he wants you.
âYou get it going in here? Find the detergent okay?â
Those kind cobalt eyes follow your gaze to the sink, where you canât break your focus on the dark silicone device. The one he meant to put away before you came over. His cheeks flush as he steps into the room to attempt to explain why he has something so private sitting out - in his laundry room of all places.
But as he goes to open his mouth, you cut him off. âYou donât have to explain. I donât need to know everything in yourâŠ.sex life. Youâre obviously welcome to do whatever you like in the privacy of your home.â
His eyebrows raise, unsure why you seem so upset when the only issue is a clogged sink in the ensuite last night.Â
You edge around him, desperate to get out of this space - his space - away from everything that reminds you of him as he figuratively slips through your fingers. âWe never discussed being exclusive, so I get it.â
âWhat are you-?â
Tears threaten to spill over as he follows you toward his back door. âBut if Iâm being honest, Iâm not sure Iâm comfortable with us seeing other people, so-â
Robertâs eyes bug out of his head. Seeing other people? His blood pressure rises as the dots connect behind those pretty eyes, and suddenly heâs racing to cut you off. Youâre faster than you look, but before you can turn the handle of the back door heâs plastered his body against the wood, effectively blocking you from leaving.
The pain behind your eyes begs him to move, to let you run back to the safety of your own home so you can cry and despair over not locking him down sooner. Of course thereâs someone else. Of course youâre not the only one who can see how great Robert Floyd is.
âRobert, I need to leave. I need a moment alone. Please.â
But he holds his ground. The second you walk through that door he knows heâs lost you. His eyes are cautious behind those thick lenses, wanting to obey your wishes but the risk of losing you making every nerve stand on end. Whatever is wrong, he can fix this. He will fix it.
âSweetheart.â His fingers reach into the space between you, hand clenching into a fist when heâs unsure whether heâs allowed to touch you right now. âThere isnât anyone else. I promise, youâreâŠyouâre the only one.â
You eye him hesitantly, wanting to believe his words. But that cock ring has never made an appearance in your sleepovers. Never once brought up when heâs standing between your parted thighs, lips slotted against yours.
âI really want to believe you, I do. But why else would you be cleaning your, erm, toy?â You canât bring yourself to say cock ring without bursting into frustrated tears.
Itâs now that the fight within him drops, and immediately his shoulders release. Embarrassment floods his features and he drops his gaze, no longer able to look you in the eye. This is not how he anticipated bringing this dynamic into your relationship.
âThatâŠitâsâŠI-I use it when Iâm alone. I like to, uh, edge myself.â
His cheeks are flaming and the burning despair inside you dissipates into intrigue. A flame traipses through your abdomen, curious and hungry.
âYou use itâŠalone?â
He desperately nods, tentatively reaching out to grasp your hands, needing to feel you. Those thick, strong fingers rub against your knuckles soothingly. Despite the whiplash of emotions conflicting inside you, his presence immediately soothes and you lean into his touch.
âThe nights you canât come overâŠI prefer to save my orgasms for you. Only you.â
His blush reflects yours as you look into those ocean-deep eyes, the desperation clear across his features. Heâs being honest, laying out every last secret heâs got to keep you here.
âSo, thereâs no one else?â Your voice feels so small, barely a whisper in the kitchen.
He shakes his head definitively, using his grip on your hands to bring you closer as he stares deep into your eyes. âThereâs no one else. And the fact you would even think that means Iâm not doing a good enough job proving how much I care for you. Because I like you so much, sweetheart, so, so much.â
The tension in your body breaks, and you allow yourself to lean into his strong body. His panic dissipates as he holds you to him, one arm flush against your waist as his hand holds your face to his chest. Heâs never letting you go, of that he knows for sure.
He canât believe there would be any doubt in your mind of his intentions. The sleepovers, the dinners in, the way heâs made a home between your thighsâŠthat makes you official, doesnât it? Heâs never been one for the right words, but he was pretty sure his actions proved he was in this for the long haul.Â
Youâre too important to mess up. To allow any seed of doubt to spread.Â
His nose traces along your temple, warm breath kissing the delicate skin. âCan I take you to bed, sweetheart?âÂ
Your face lifts from his chest to take in his honest face. The loose tendril of sun-lightened brunette thatâs escaped his neat hairstyle. The thin lopsided smile you trust in. Eyes behind corrected lenses that are serious and playful in the same breath.Â
In lieu of an answer, you mold your lips to his, drinking in his taste youâve deprived yourself of for days. His kindness and sincerity sink into you, surrounding you the pleasantly overwhelming way his body does as he wraps around you. Holding your hips as he swallows your tongue, shifting himself to feel every dip and curve of your body.
As his lips find your neck, the laundry room comes back into view. A delicious thought swirls in your mind and the words burst from your mouth.
âCan I see?â
He nuzzles against your jaw, grinding his erection against your thigh.Â
âSee what?â Heâs distracted by how good you smell, how soft your skin feels beneath his fingers.
âI want to see you with the cock ring. Show me, please?â
Arousal floods his mind, images of you naked beneath him while his balls throb with cum just for you. No words needed before heâs pushing you in front of him to his bedroom. Heâs ready to show you just how devoted he is to you.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, it feels like the first time with him all over again. Anticipation of the unknown, drowned in heavy lust.Â
His eyes rake over you as he enters the room, lust darkening those soft blue eyes. Youâre exactly how he wants you always - in his bed, eager for his touch. Right now, heâs yours.
Taking the spot between your legs, strong fingers stroking along jean-clad thighs, his broad frame bends toward you to rest his forehead against yours. That button nose knocking into yours.Â
âThereâs been no one else since the day you moved next door. Iâm yours, only yours.â
The build up of emotions behind your eyes threatens to spill over as he presses his lips to yours. Cups the back of your head as he leans into you, applying the softest pressure. Pouring every ounce of his devotion into his kiss.
Your legs wrap around his slim hips, needing to feel his security and care. Heâs the most helpful man to exist, and you know heâll guide you through this dynamic.Â
Kisses turn sweet to frantic to passionate as Robert holds your face. Your lips are chapped when he finally pulls away, strong chest rising and deflating. You know you mirror his disheveled aroused appearance. His hand reaches behind to his back pocket.
He holds the black cock ring between you, freshly washed, gleaming in the afternoon sunlight peeking through the curtains. âAre you sure about this?â
Your apprehensive eyes meet his, although a slight smile plays along your lips. âPlay dirty with me. Please.â
Condensation beads on the lower rims of his glasses as he dips his face to kiss you, his skin flaming hot. The kiss is sinful yet curt, not wanting to lose himself before practicing restraint. You run your tongue along the seam of his lips, savoring his flavor. He hums against your mouth as your hands find his waist, heart picking up speed as your fingers find the button of his jeans.Â
Robert clenches the cock ring in his fist, already struggling to hold his load as the softness of your skin wraps tightly around his hardening cock.Â
His eyes are lidded, thin mouth already agape from the pleasure of your fist stroking firmly up and down his shaft. Can barely keep focus between the way you squeeze his deep pink tip and the spectacular view down your top, his mind running wild at the all the skin he needs to touch. Heâs practically forgotten the reason for his view until you lick your lips sweetly and ask.
âCan I put it on?â
Fingers unfurl and present the silicone ring to you, warm from his clenched fist. You press the ring between your fingers, taking in the smooth design and thick circumference. Glide your thumb along the little button that makes it vibrate.Â
Heâs panting above you, already wrecked at the vision. The only two things he deems worthy of his cock, right in front of him.Â
Bringing the ring up to your lips, he watches as you run your tongue along it, gathering your saliva to glisten along the silicone for a smoother glide. Your fingers effortlessly slipping along the edge before you touch it to the sensitive tip of his cock.Â
His fingers curl around the nape on your neck, holding the hair there, grounding himself. Between your ministrations and the pressure of the ring slipping down his length, heâs dizzy with stimulation. His cock immediately swelling in response. Lip between his teeth to contain the gruff moans youâre desperate to hear.
Your eyes are focused on the firm grip the ring has on the length of him, sliding down until your thumb is brushing his heavy ballsack, pulsing with need.Â
âSweetheart, Iâm not going to last.â Heâs panting against your forehead, trying so hard to be patient, but wanting nothing more than to thrust into your fist and chase his orgasm.Â
You tilt his chin to press a chaste kiss to his lips. A promise to take care of him, because you and you alone are responsible for his pleasure. Always.
Sliding back onto the soft coverlet, you raise your hips to remove your jeans. Skin growing warm at the wanton look of need in Robertâs eyes as you unbutton your top. His voice but a whine when you sit in front of him in nothing but the delicate chain around your neck.Â
âSo beautiful.â
Itâs impossible to tell whose whimpers are more desperate as you run the shiny-slick swollen head of him against your core. Moaning as it catches on your entrance, ready to sink deep into those velvet depths. Voices becoming one as you impale yourself on the thick shaft thatâs all yours.
He canât believe anything could be better. This is Nirvana. Until you reach between to where your bodies meet and hit that tiny little button.
âFuck!â He never swears, and yet that filthy word streaks through the room with a bite. Yelped loudly as he buries his face into your neck. The combination of vibrations and warm, tight pussy sending him into a spiral. Groaning out praises into your neck like itâs his last day alive.
You canât help the grin on your face as you experience him come undone. How had you been denied the pleasure of watching him like this? The salt of his neck, the wayward curl stuck to his forehead? Itâs a toss up if youâre getting off on being stuffed with his engorged cock or by watching the way his chest heaves for breath as he fights off his orgasm.
âAre you going to cum for me?â Youâre drunk on power watching him like this, rutting his hips into you over and over for a pleasure that wonât come until you decide. His nod so desperate it goes right to your clit. His swollen cock stretching you beyond what you thought possible. The frisson of skin on skin, those tiny yet powerful vibrations, and his affection for you is overwhelming.Â
The ring fully still in place, your orgasm wracks your body, convulsing over the sheets. Barely able to notice his soft lips brushing the arch of your breasts as he consumes your satisfaction. Drinking in the sounds of your moans as they mix with his wet thrusts.Â
Your sleepy eyes are all he focuses on as he chases his orgasm, fighting past his usual routine of stopping here when he only has his hand. Right now he gets to have it all - the constricted blood flow, the vibration, and you. Perfect, wonderful you. His hands fist in the bedding, rooting himself, as sinks his hips deeper with precise strokes.Â
He can do this. He will show you youâre the only one for him.
Body quivering, his face is bright red as he thrusts, exertion bringing the vein in his forehead out with a matching bead of sweat. Robert feels his body take on a new consciousness as you ask for his cum once more.
His grunts are filthy - animalistic and deep. The first stream of cum heâs ever experienced with the ring on filling your stretched pussy, claiming you as his. Head fuzzy, he takes a moment to pull himself from your soft embrace and jerk his engorged cock, shot after shot of cum pumping out across your body. A painting only he gets to witness.
His tank now empty, you feel the soft thump of his body fall beside yours. Hear him catch his breath in the quiet afternoon air.
Exhausted, his face knocks into yours - glasses already lost to the coverlet - as he comes to reality once again. Strong arms reaching to pull you to him. Lackadaisical kisses to your cheek before risking a glance down and laughing abashedly.
âT-thereâs so much cum. Itâs everywhere.â Another kiss. âIâm sorry, sweetheart.âÂ
The carefree yet sheepish grin he gives you melts your heart. You kiss him back, not needing to look as you feel his seed dry on your skin in the golden hour light. He very truly marked you as his, just as he is yours.Â
Smoothing your fingers through his hair, memorizing every little detail of his face - what a handsome face - you ease his embarrassment. âItâs not a big deal. Weâll just throw the sheets in the washer and enjoy dinner. Itâs fine, really.âÂ
His washer currently filled with your delicates complicates things, but your big, sweet smile soothes his self-consciousness. He returns the grin back, holding you closer.Â
That night is spent eating Robertâs lasagna and playing cards until every light on the street went out. Itâs far too late when the sheets are finally clean and dried, and even later when theyâre successfully on the bed. But itâs worth it to him when you crawl under the duvet and beckon him closer, needing one last kiss from your boyfriend before sleep.

⥠Genre: fluff

⥠Bang Chan âĄ
It isnât unusual for your boyfriend to be up on his laptop all night, headphones in, chipping away at the next track for his group. Thatâs what youâve assumed has been happening these past few weeks but you couldnât be more wrong. He has been working on a song but itâs for you and only you. Itâs much softer than what heâs usually known for with instrumentals that feel like a warm blanket on a cold night. You can feel his vulnerability in every word he sings. So much that you canât even question if he really means it when he says that your gentle heart makes him fall for you more and more each day. Or that the sweetness of your voice brings calm to the chaos in his brain. He dedicates an entire verse to the brightness of your smile and how your laughterâs his favorite sound. By the end of it youâre trying not to cry which is fine because he is too.
⥠Changbin âĄ
You have no clue how much self control it took for Changbin not to buy out the entire Build-A-Bear store getting those cute little teddy bears that say phrases when you hug them. It wouldâve been easy for him to send someone else to get them for him but he does it himself instead, pretending to be at the gym while he picks out the perfect dozen for you. Once everythingâs perfect he leaves them around the apartment for you to find with notes that say âHug Meâ. When you do you hear your favorite voice telling you that your eyes are so beautiful and brimming with love that he could stare back into them all day. He loves how you see him, really see him, for who he is and he never has to hide behind a mask with you. Youâre his #1 cheerleader, always reminding him heâs good enough when he doubts himself. There isnât a safer place in the world for than with you and he'll spend the rest of his life doing everything in his power to be the same for you.
⥠Hannie âĄ
With your boyfriendâs hectic schedule, itâs important to him that he makes time to have special moments just for the two of you. This includes game nights which he takes very seriously, going all out to make sure the atmosphereâs ultra romantic and you have all of your favorite snacks. When you settle in for your latest game night youâre clueless when he presents you with an already built tower of blocks with hearts on the exterior of each piece. As the game begins you realize that each block you pull out has a reason he loves you handwritten on it. All 54 blocks. His hand cramped up 1,000 times doing it but it was worth it for you to know that spending an eternity cuddled up to your soft body would be the sweetest fate imaginable. That he never dreams better than when youâre there beside him, fingers running through his hair, singing him to sleep. That, even though it hurts sometimes, you make him miss you more than he has anyone else.
⥠Hyunjin âĄ
Hyunjinâs never told you this before but he knew that you were the one since the day you first met. There was simply no way he was going to let someone as special as you get away. In the year since then heâs been drawing pictures of you in his sketchbook during moments when heâs feeling particularly sentimental. Youâre always too respectful of his artistic process to peek at his work unless he asks so you donât know until he shows you that he has such gorgeously vivid drawings of you making breakfast for him in the wee hours of the morning before he has to catch a flight. A few pages in thereâs another of you playing with kids at the park when they needed one more person for a game. The last page is you sitting on the balcony of your hotel room, waiting to comfort him after an appearance heâd been dreading. The way youâre so thoughtful, lovely, and kind live in those moments he never wants to forget.Â
⥠Felix âĄ
âFelix, I think thereâsâŠpaper in this cupcake?â When Felix surprises you with cupcakes at work and sees you bite into the first one it dawns on him that he probably shouldâve considered that maybe cupcakes donât work exactly like fortune cookies do. But his heart was in the right place and you canât bring yourself to care about biting into a little paper when you see what heâs written on them. He watches with the widest smile on that freckled face as you read how much being with you keeps him grounded in a life that can leave his head spinning sometimes. It means everything to him that his fame doesnât make you treat him differently. You dance with him beneath the stars and kiss him in the rain because you love the Felix thatâs just a silly kid from Australia and not the one on the magazine covers. You make him feel fearless because he knows even if he shoots for the stars and misses youâre here to catch him.Â
⥠Lino âĄ
Some people have this picture in their head of your boyfriend as this grumpy black cat who doesnât quite know how to show affection but you know better than anyone that isnât true. In reality you couldnât imagine finding a guy more loving and thoughtful than Minho. What other guy would surprise you with a hike through a picturesque forest, hiding the cutest lock boxes at special landmarks along the way that hold his favorite pictures of the two of you together? A sentiment that particularly tugs at your heartstrings because you know he isnât a picture guy but for you he is and always will be. On the back of each picture he writes something he loved about you at that moment. The warmth of your hand as he held it at the cat cafe in Tokyo or the scent of your perfume as you cuddled up to him on a neverending train ride that exhausted both of you. Itâs the small things like the way you never hesitate to join him in making funny faces in front of the camera that make love you like he does. Â
⥠Innie âĄ
I.N could give you a bouquet of flowers that say âI love youâ and call it a day. He knows youâd still treat it like he gifted you all of the diamonds in the world. But he wants to do more than that. Instead of giving you a bouquet all at once, he gives you a flower for each day of the week and, in place of a real flower, he gives you a glass rose that shimmers marvelously in the sunlight. Engraved on the side of each rose is something he finds special about you. Like the patience that you have with him while he figures out who he is in the world. You never pressure him to become anything or stay the way he was. Whoever he becomes he knows itâll always be enough for you. Your kisses are like magic, cheering him up when nothing else can. And that counts for all kisses. If itâs on the lips, the neck, the forehead, wherever. They spark a joy inside of him that he isnât quite sure any amount of words or roses could do justice to but he hopes this comes close.Â
⥠Seungmin âĄ
No one ever thought the day would come where Kim Seungmin got all mushy over a girl. Yet, here he is, head over heels in love with you, and he dares anyone to say something about it. Not that anyone would, itâs a well known fact now that you mean a lot to him. So much that wherever he is in the world he makes sure to bring you back something that reminds him of you. Itâs left you with a collection of things from more places than youâve actually visited. Thereâs the goddess carved in polished wood, nestled in the arches of a crescent moon with her curves on full display. When he saw it he joked how lucky he was to have one of his own at home, only prettier. Then thereâs the music box that plays a song neither of you have ever heard before. Still, it reminds him of your melodic voice whispering to him between the sheets on rainy Sunday mornings. There was no way he could leave the shop without it. He knows one day youâll run out of room for wind chimes that sway as gracefully your body when you dance, even if you donât think so, but thatâs okay. Heâll just buy you more room.

đč âč Ë.
The house was quiet apart from the TV playing softly and Lily's sweet voice retelling you the whole plot to a movie she and her mother had recently watched. You listen dutifully as you help cut her pancakes, a smile on your face watching as she becomes half breathless with excitement. She was the sweetest girl, much diffrent fron the stereotypical spoilt brat you'd assume of children who grew up in similar situations.
Her mother's back faced the two of you as she re-watched one of her husband's previous matches. You'd be lying if you said if you said you weren't slightly terrified of her the first time you met. You still were, even after half a year of being the Donaldsons' live-in nanny, traveling along to tournaments and becoming somewhat acquainted with the small family.
As much as Tashi scared you, she intrigued you in equal parts. She was obviously a breathtakingly beautiful woman, confidence and elegance oozed from her. She had a powerful and alluring presence and never had to command respect; she received it right off the bat because people knew her. Her reputation preceded with her by decades.
It was terrible, but some days you'd hope to see more of her throughout the house, hoping to have a few more of those menial conversations that didn't just revolve around her daughter or your work conditions. Where she'd ask you about your studies or something you had cooked the day before. It wasn't a crush, just pure admiration â that's what you told yourself to not feel so awfully guilty.
You hadn't even noticed her husband had joined her until he was leaving again, on his way to start his strict exercise regime. He smiled at Lily's rambling, sparing you a short "morning" before he was off. Tashi rose from the couch before coming to sit with you, pulling out the chair across from yours and quietly sitting down.
"Lily, why don't you go and find the drawing you wanted to show?" her mother asked, watching as she sprinted to her room. You felt a little nervous under her gaze, watching as she played with her bracelet.
"We have to be in Australia in a few months," she started, "I wanted to ask of you'd be able to join us because my mom can't come along to look after Lily."
"Of course, yeah. I'd love to," you smiled, watching her sigh with relief. "Thank you," she said, placing her hand over yours. "I really appreciate what you do for us," she said before she had risen from the chair, making her way to Lily's room. Your hand twitched before you continued to cut at Lily's cold pancakes.

He texsts her to come to tbe studio because he wants to make her listen to human connect to human so she goes.
As she listens to the song she realizes it's about them and she starts to tease him leading then to tbe bedroom đ
Human conect to human
PAIRINGS: Bill 2009 x Female reader
CONTENT: Smut
SYNOPSIS: Bill writes a song about you two and you decide to tease him.
WARNINGS: unprotected sex, p in v, kissing
A/N: One of my favorite songs so of course i got carried a bit
Because Bill had a busy routine, he always prioritized as much time as he could spend by your side, which is why he decided to create a studio at home, so he could spend time with you between work breaks and always stay close.
He had been working on a song for a few days now and although he didn't talk much about it, you knew he was excited.
You had gone out to buy some things when you received the message from Bill asking you to go straight to the studio when you get home. And you ran home, curious to know what he had to show you.
As soon as you entered the studio you could tell how excited he was just by the way he looked at you. Bill always seemed like a ball of energy when he was happy and excited.
Without saying anything he handed you the headphones and put the music on. You listened intently as he waited anxiously. Even if you don't understand music in a technical sense, Bill was always very appreciative of your opinion.
You paid attention to the lyrics and noticed many similarities in your relationship with Bill. You had to fight a small smile.
Bill never hid that his life was a source of inspiration for his songs, but he had never been inspired by you or your relationship before.
After a few minutes the song ended and you took off your headphones.
âSo, what did you think?â He asked anxiously.
Deciding to provoke him, you said seriously. âItâs a bit provocative compared to what youâre used to writing, isnât it?â
His gaze quickly changed from excited to surprised, clearly not expecting that answer.
"You didn't like it?" You almost felt bad of how his voice sounded.
âOh, I really liked it.â You said as you slowly approached him. âI wonder what could have inspired you to write something like that.â
You watched his ears turn a shade of red and he was quiet for a moment as if he had been caught.
âNothing in specific.â He whispered as you traced circles on his chest through his shirt, looking at him closely.
âOh, really?â You hummed looking through your eyelashes. He knew you already knew about it, but you liked playing and so did he.
You stood on your tiptoes and whispered in his ear, making him close his eyes. âA kiss, a touch, never enough, so soft, so hard, don't stop, you start. Instinctive skills, like animals.â Bill sighed before opening his eyes again.
âSo itâs not about us?â You asked innocently, lowering one of the straps of your dress drawing his attention to your now exposed skin.
You smile, standing on tiptoe to get closer to his face. One of your hands ran down his chest until it reached the front of his pants. You could feel the hardness under your palm. And you smiled before squeezing gently.
Bill brings his face closer to yours, but before he could kiss you you hook your hand on his belt and pull him out of the studio. The path to your room seems longer than you remember.
As soon as you entered the room you began to undo his belt, Bill seemed almost in a trance, he closed his eyes eager to be touched. You had to take advantage of the opportunity because you weren't always able to overpower him. He waited, but you didn't do anything else.
"I won't touch you until you answer my question." You said in a firm tone making him open his eyes to look at you. Bill bit his bottom lip, watching you mouth so close to his.
"I want you to kiss me." He whispered the first thing that came to mind, forgetting what question you had asked. Seeing you bring your face closer to his, he parted his lips and closed his eyes in expectation, only to then sigh in frustration when he felt you place a wet kiss on his jaw and nothing more.
"That's not what I asked." You said smiling ironically.
He whispered some things in German that you had no idea what meant, but from his tone he sounded frustrated.
"I want to hear you say it." You said, wrapping your arms around his waist tightly and pressing your bodies together. The feeling of his erection against your belly made him moan.
"I-I... I want you to touch me." He whispered, his voice cracking. He could feel his cheeks burning with embarrassment. Bill wasn't the type to let himself be dominated for long, but you loved seeing him like this.
Keeping your body pressed against his, you fixed a strand of hair, taking the opportunity to caress the soft skin of his face.
"But I'm already touching you, my love." Bill knew you were playing with him, teasing him.
âNow tell me what you were thinking while you were writing that beautiful song.â You whispered before stretching your body, standing on your toes. Wrapping your arms around Bill's neck, you moved your hips against his, making him part his lips in surprise.
"Did you think about us fucking?" Running your fingers over his dark shirt. Bill nodded weakly shaking a little more each time you rubbed your hips against his.
"I would close my eyes and think of you in all kinds of positions." He said holding one of your hands that was now on his chest. âThinking about the intoxicating sensation of being inside you.â
You watched as Bill slid your hand down his body, making you feel the subtle muscles on your palm. Reaching the edge of his shirt, you pulled away to help him take it off. Quickly discarding the piece somewhere in the room, you turned your attention to Bill's body. Your eyes roamed his naked torso, following the v-line as if they were the path to paradise.
You walked quickly closing the space and pressed your lips tightly against Bill's, feeling his taste on your tongue. He seemed surprised by your sudden actions, but quickly responded to the kiss with fervor. You wrapped your arms around Bill's neck and pressed your body against his, making sure there was no space between the two of you. After a few seconds he separated your lips from his, his mouth traveling every inch around your lips, kissing everything from the rosy skin of your cheeks to your jaw.
You let out a moan as Bill took control. You knew he would at some point. He kissed your neck, sucking the skin below your left ear making you pull his dark hair between your fingers, you moaned and rubbed your legs against his, feeling an electricity pass through your body.
"Bill..." You whispered in a moan, feeling his hands travel down your body, squeezing and caressing every little part.
The feeling was wonderful, but you needed more than furtive kisses and caresses. When your lips met again, Bill wrapped his arms around you and pushed you against the wall.
He grabbed your hips and lifted one of your legs, holding your thigh firmly. You sighed, unable to contain your excitement as your tongues fought, occasionally moaning against each other's mouths. Gaining dominance again for a moment, your hands traveled down Bill's chest until reaching his pants, skillfully opening the button without breaking the kiss, you grabbed the edges of his pants, pushed them down and smiled when Bill's lips parted. He kicked his shoes, socks and pants away and kissed you again.
You felt Bill's hands travel up the fabric of your dress and into the slit, his hand moving up until he was caressing the skin of your stomach. He was quick, holding your thighs, spreading them open. He slid his hand between your legs and into your panties feeling the soft, wet skin against his fingers.
"Bill." You moaned and threw your head back, giving him opening to kiss and suck on your neck, while his skilled fingers made small circular movements against your clit.
"I love the way you taste." Bill said softly against the soft skin of your throat, before traveling back up to your lips. You could feel Bill's breath against your lips, you didn't need to open your eyes to know that he was watching you moan as you writhed against his fingers.
Bill smiled when you opened your eyes, which were now a darker shade. You kissed him quickly, pulling his bottom lip between your teeth making him moan instantly.
"I want you inside me." You said through moans, pulling him onto the bed.
"I'm all yours, love." Bill whispered following you, his hoarse voice clouded all your senses, you took a deep breath, pushed him sitting on the bed and then pulled the black boxers down his legs, discarding them in some corner of the room with the rest of your other clothes.
Bill watched your every move as if hypnotized. You smiled, moving the straps of your dress aside, letting it slowly slide down your body followed by your underwear. Bill stretched out his arms trying to pull you towards him but you slapped his hands away giving him a warning look.
You removed the clip holding your hair and placed it on the dresser next to the bed, taking your time. You smiled, watching how Bill bit his lower lip, looking at you in a mix of desire and impatience. Walking slowly over to him, you climbed into Bill's lap and slowly sank down on top of him. You tried to suppress the shudder at how good it felt to be in control. Bill groaned and closed his eyes, an expression of pure bliss on his face as you moved your hips.
"God, you're so hot." He whispered as he opened his eyes and smiled.
Bill leaned forward, his eyes on your lips, but you pushed him back, moving faster on him. Struggling to stay in control.
"You won't let me touch you?" He asked laughing, Bill pushed himself forward forcing his hips to slam against yours hard. You bit your lip to hold back a moan, feeling your face flush under his gaze.
"No." You responded hoarsely, excited by the way his smile grew wider in defiance.
"What if I don't obey you?" He asked, smiling mischievously before sliding one of his hands up to your left breast and squeezing it roughly. You bit your lower lip, slapping his hand away.
"You know I can't let you control for long, love." Bill held your hips and forced you down quickly, making you let out a little scream of surprise and pure ecstasy.
"Bill-" You swallowed your words and clung to his shoulders, when with a growl he thrust his hips again and you both simultaneously let out loud moans.
Not being able to escape Bill's dominance any longer, you began to move against him, your hands on the back of his neck for support. Bill's hands on your hips commanded each movement with a rough thrust. Then he leaned forward, buried one of his hands in your hair and pulled you in for a kiss.
You moaned, not realizing how much you wanted your lips against his until that moment. You ran your nails down Bill's shoulders and pulled him closer as the kiss intensified. You felt your movements becoming erratic and your legs starting to shake, unable to keep up with him.
You heard Bill murmur between moans and grunts, but you couldn't understand in the midst of all that euphoria. You screamed and closed your eyes tightly feeling the pleasure taking over your body. You felt a hand grab your throat, forcing you to open your eyes to look at him. Bill smiled widely, licking his lips as he looked at you with mischief and delight.
"I left you in control." He said slowly. "Now it's my turn to command."
You thought about answering him, but he leaned in and kissed you. In an instant, the almost gentle kiss turned into a primal need with tongues and teeth fighting against each other violently. Bill started to push himself into you again. Soon the pressure in your belly became unbearable and you threw your head back, not being able to contain your screams of pleasure.
Bill buried his face in your neck, biting and sucking the skin, you gasped in pain and pleasure. He spread open-mouthed kisses over your neck, smiling when he found a spot with a mole. You scratched Bill's back. Moaning, the name left your lips in hot breath. "Bill..."
The effect it had on him was immediate. His lips were back to your ear, breathlessly growling. âSay my name again.â
âBillâŠâ You complied with his request immediately, repeating his name in a moan over and over again. Bill clung tighter to your body, making you bury your face in the crook of his neck to hide your scream of pleasure.
He let out a loud moan that made your body shake. You held Bill's hair between your fingers, feeling your hands shake as he continued to move his hips.
You moaned loudly when his teeth grazed your neck and you felt another orgasm hit you again. Screaming loudly in his ear, clinging as close as you could. He managed to give one last, hard thrust before releasing himself too, moaning against your hair. He fell back onto the bed, pulling you with him. You just lay there on Bill's chest, wrapped in his arms, recovering from the post-orgasm ecstasy.
"This was amazing." He whispered smiling.

I've been saving this but I can't take it anymore... your art is super cool!! I love the drawing style you have, especially the lines and expressions. Also the dynamic poses and interactions between characters, everything looks so cute but at the same time exciting to keep watching!! I would read a whole manga with your art in it :3
Curious question: what size are your drawings normally? I see that you draw in pencil and many times there is more than one drawing on a single canvas/sheet so I am curious to know approximately the size of your drawings
I hope you donât mind me using your ask to say this, butâŠyou guys have no idea how much your kindness and positivity has affected me since I started posting my CotL stuff.
Iâve had anxiety since I was a kid, and depression for almost a decade now, and most recently been diagnosed with ADHD and OCD. Iâve had the most lows in my life over the past few years, and my consistency and drive to draw has suffered for it; at most, Iâve posted every other week, but mostly once every couple of months, and even longer than that until now. Being on medication has affected my motivation to draw, and Iâve been on short-term disability for over a month now, trying out new medications and feeling mostly miserable from the side effects.
Despite all that, Iâve wanted truly to finally be consistent with art, interact with people, try new things, and itâs helped so much to have so many people loving the things Iâve come up with. I havenât been as consistent this last week, and spotty some weeks before that, but youâve all been so patient despite that, which is part of the reason I want to give you some transparency and vulnerability on my part.
So I apologize if things continue to be a little less than organized or consistent, but Iâm going to keep trying my best everyday, because I want to keep bringing you things you enjoy and want to interact with, soâŠthank you. đ„č
But getting to your question before I really start to tear upâŠthis 9x12 sketchbook by Strathmore (specifically the recycled paper) is what Iâve been using for my sketches for a long while:
And it typically depends on how big or small I think each of the drawings should be, but I do try to keep them on one page if I can just for organizationsâs sake.
Also if I know I need to post it from my phone, I try to make things easier for myself by putting things within proximity of each other with my phoneâs camera in mind (not the whole page because itâll be blurry, up and down since thatâs easier for me to take a shot with, and so on).
If Iâm gonna scan it, that makes things a bit easier, but I do try to condense them enough so I can try and avoid doing two scans of the same page and having to stitch them together (this one below just ended up taking the whole page, and since most scanners - my roommateâs included - usually only scan Letter or A4 size areas, those I end up having to scan on multiple parts and edit them together in Clip Studio Paint).
But of course, it all comes down to what feels right or works with your own method the best (as long as you achieve the outcome you wanted, the tools and method to get there donât necessarily have to be the âbestâ or ârightâ way to do it).
I hope this helps, though, and that you have a brilliant day~âš

Hi!! Heres a drabble prompt if you are still taking them đ
Sirius/James and a lazy weekend morning together â€ïž
Hi!! đ Thank you for the lovely prompt! đ This is a slice of life drabble where they get to be happy and just enjoy life for once. Here's James and Sirius spending a lazy weekend morning together. Nsfw.
Rating: M
__
Husband
The white and grey curtains before the balcony are parted, exposing a blue lake and a mountainous view in the soft hues of the morning light. Everything is quiet, save for the panting that fills the air.
Sirius's hips buckle up as the hot mouth sucking him off beneath the cover brings him to his climax. His back arches, and he clenches the sheets, a million stars exploding in his mind.
Ecstatic, he comes down slowly, still shivering when James's head emerges from beneath the blanket, his hair sticking everywhere even more than usual.
The hazel eyes appear bigger without the glasses, and he licks his lips, wearing a smug grin.
"How's that for a wake-up?"
Sirius huffs a laugh and rubs the sleep away from his eyes. "Very pleasurable."
They look at each other, grinning like idiots.
"Good morning, husband," James says softly, reaching down to kiss Sirius on the lips.
"Mm, morning."
It still sounds incredible. Less than 24 hours ago, they said "I do" in a beautiful ceremony in the Scottish Highlands and celebrated well into the night with their loved ones before taking a portkey to a small village by Lake Garda, Italy to start their honeymoon.
Sirius bites his lower lip as he reaches to stroke James's hair. "I can't believe I got to marry my best friend."
It's all a bit ridiculous how giddy he can be. They've both just entered their 40s. Who knew you could begin a whole new chapter at this stage of life?
A few years ago, they found themselves single at the same time. They brushed shoulders more often, their gazes lingering and mouths curling into secret smiles. They did have some hurdles to work out, but Sirius finally stopped fearing and expecting the worst when James made a shaky and heartfelt confession that he couldnât imagine life without Sirius, and they found the happiness they always had the potential for.
"What would you like to do today?"
"It's Saturday. I want to spend the day in bed with my husband."
"You just love saying 'husband'." Sirius grins as he runs his hand across James's back. Truth be told, he loves that word, too. "But we're in Italy. We should have breakfast and go see some sights."
"Mm. Later." James nuzzles his face in the crook of Sirius's neck, lying on top of him like a heated blanket. "I preordered breakfast from room service last night. It should be here at 9am."
A quick glance at the clock on the wall says it's only 8:30.
"You thought of everything, hm?" Sirius feels James's hard-on pressing against his hips. "Well, in that caseâŠ" He rolls them over quickly, eliciting a surprised laugh from James when his head hits the mattress.
"I think I know how to pass the time in the meanwhile." Sirius stares down at James, his elbows on either side of his head.
James smirks as he curls his hands around Sirius's hips, drawing tiny circles with his thumbs on his skin.
"Would you care to show me?"
"With pleasure." Sirius nips James's neck before smoothing the skin with a lick. "Husband."
It's James's turn to pant and moan, when Sirius kisses his way downwards along his body, leaving no sensitive spot unexplored.
It isnât until late afternoon when they make it out of their room, ready to start the day as a newly married couple.

Welcome back to tumblr! Hope you enjoyed your break
It was very stressful. Ended up failing the marking period for English, but not by as much as I was failing before. Could still pull up the overall grade by the end of the semester.
