The thing about the seeds and soil is that if people in the abbey already had prejudice against sarkaz, could this kind of soil grow seeds of true unity? Would any of these people have accepted a group of sarkaz led by a mercenary if they were not despairing? One of the liberi folks accused, that the sarkaz took no part in their religion and thus remained outsiders, but can religion of Laterano accept them if Laterano itself is built on rejection of Sarkaz? And can it be truly said that they were accepted if they remained apart? So was the abbey doomed from the start?
Yet it fell apart because it could not support itself, but can Laterano support itself? Do we know if it doesn't rely on the rest of the world to feed its happiness? Can we say that the paradize was false just because it fell apart? The 'paradize' of Abbey is not same as 'paradize' of Laterano, the 'paradize' of Laterano exists in its opposition. Which one is true? Do any of them have to be real?
The thing is, I do not think it matters if any of these paradizes are real or fake. I think what matters is that the people sought them and that they did their best to preserve them. I think it matters is that the people of Laterano themselves, without any input from their God, might be willing to burn the world if it means preserving their dream of Laterano, if such choice ever arises. Just the same as that within the heart of Clement there was a decision to burn the Abbey down so that it would never wake up from its dream.

THIGH RIDING. SAL FISHER
☠︎︎ CONTENTS NSFW, riding his thigh near the lake, sal being touchy, clothed clit rubbing ᵎᵎ wc 1.1k
ᵎᵎ check the mlist for kinktober here !
Tumblr media
being in nockfell was often too much to handle, especially now that the cult’s activity was dormant. it all puts too much stress on your little group, especially with college work dropping in like a storm.
that’s exactly why you and your boyfriend, sal, decided it’s better to go on dates to wendigo lake, where you can enjoy the quietness of nature. just you two, a blanket, some snacks, his guitar and the night sky was enough to get you in a good mood and raise your spirits again. however, this night was a little bit different. even though the cute date sal had prepared did put you in a good mood it also made you needy for his touch, wanting to feel him closer.
as the sun went down, your small discussion had turned into a makeout session as you straddled sal, his back pressed against the bark of a tree. his mask was thrown somewhere on the blanket that was under you, even if he had protested against it. even after all these years, he was still self-conscious about not wearing his mask, sometimes even with you.
it’s not that you didn’t understand it. to sal, even if he had accepted his accident and condition, his face still held a grand amount of trauma and he still felt afraid that you might see him one day for the ‘monster’ that he was. your heart always ached as you heard him say that.. how could the sweetest person you’ve ever met think that about himself? it was beyond you.
you did everything in your power to reassure sal about his aspect as the years passed and now you were happy to say it mostly worked. he had grown much more comfortable, often having his mask off when your friend group gathered for movie nights and hangouts at your shared house or the apartments.
“wait…” sal muttered as he pulled away. you could see his scarred cheeks turned a nice shade of pink, giving his pale skin some colour. you had two hair ties on your wrist, ones that you got after taking out sal’s pigtails so you could play with his hair as you kissed him. your hands rested on the sides of his face.
“what is it?” you looked around, thinking he had heard something in the woods surrounding the lake. sal’s fingers dig into your waist and you turn around to face him again.
“what if someone comes by? maybe we should stop…” sal’s blue eyes look into yours as you smile in relief. you twirl a strand of his hair around your index finger, brushing his bangs away from his eyes.
“do you.. want to stop?” you ask as you keep caressing his face. sal’s ears turn a bright red as he exhales sharply, fingers tapping on your lower back.
“no…” he whispers softly, smiling as he hears your chuckle ring in his ears. his eyes soften, lips finding yours again as he pulls you closer, enough so he can press his torso on yours. your hands pull his hair slightly, making sal groan and deepen the kiss.
the calm breeze blew against your faces as the lake’s water glistened in the moonlight. sal starts to grow touchy, hands pulling at your hoodie and caressing your thighs. you feel the heat surge through your whole body, now aware that it has been a long time since sally had touched you. you realise how needy he is acting in return.
to test the waters you decide to slowly grind your hips against his thigh, just in case he asks you to stop. that was proven to be useless, however, when he decides to push his knee upwards into your cunt, eliciting a choked moan from you. you pull away from the kiss with a gasp as your eyes meet his.
“don’t stop.. it’s okay….” sal reassures softly as he pecks the side of your chin, guiding your hips with his hands. you bite into your lip, pressing your cheek to the side of his head as you stabilise yourself by placing your palms on his shoulders. you soon realise the reason sally wanted to stop kissing you was because of the growing boner that was now pressing against your legs.
as thin as his thighs are you can’t help but whine as he flexes them, wet kisses being applied to your neck as you continue to grind your hips faster, harder, pushing yourself down on him “shit.. sally…” you mewl against the shell of his ear as his body shivers, his nails digging into your skin.
“i know… i know, baby..” his comforting voice goes straight to your heated core and you bite the flesh of your lip again. if you keep doing it, you might draw blood. who cares, anyway? it felt way too good to stop and for some reason you were now the shy one, afraid to make any noise. you knew sal loved hearing you, but you also knew he understood, that he didn’t mind. that all he was chasing was getting you off. and hopefully getting himself off too afterwards, since realising how desperate you were for him.
it doesn’t take long for your legs to start shaking as he starts rubbing your clit through your pants, the circling motion and grinding of your hips making your head spin as you hugged his neck. all sal does is hum contently, trying to ignore his own needs as he tries to help you relieve some stress.
“feel good?” he whispers as he kisses the bare space between your shoulder and neck, sucking a love mark into it.
“mhhmm.. yeah” you breathlessly say as you take a handful of his hair, making him smile. sally knew he wasn’t necessarily a catch, especially in bed. but knowing he got you acting like this was enough of an ego boost.
the kissing, soft praises and grinding all start to become too much for you and you end up cumming in your underwear in minutes, shivering against your boyfriend. as a reward, he makes sure to give you plenty of gentle kisses to your face as you pant “you did so well” sal muses as you look around.
“can we go home? i need you” you almost beg as sally smiles, fixing your hair.
“i think todd and neil are out tonight..” you smile at sal’s insinuation, lips ghosting over his before you pull him into a kiss. never before had you hurried so quickly to gather your belongings and leave the peacefulness of the lake to go back home and spend the night in the arms of your loving boyfriend.

poly!marauders getting mad at reader for not letting them study for an upcoming test, and she’s needy and whiny but when they go and help her she’s trying to get herself off so they punish her but after they punish her, they finally give her what she wants
OH this was so much fun!!!
Tumblr media
You knew the rules. Not to touch yourself and not to disturb your daddies while they were busy studying. Sometimes, it was just so hard to follow these rules. Laying splayed out on James’ bed, watching your three boyfriends sitting on the floor, studying. There was a big test coming up, but you already knew you’d ace it – you were awesome at potions and rarely had to study for the tests. Your boys, however, usually had to study a lot – even Remus had a hard time preparing for these tests.
“Daddy,” you whined, not being able to hold it any more, “I need love and attention.” You allowed your head to fall off the side of the bed, making up-side-down eye contact with James, your safest bet, as he usually caved first. “And I need it now.”
Unfortunately, even James was stressing over the test and allowed Remus to chastise you.
“Darling, don’t disturb your daddies,” he said, not even looking up from his book, “we only let you stay here if you promised to behave, don’t make me kick you out.”
Huffing, you closed the curtains around the fourposter, turning your back to them, even though they couldn’t possibly see that.
It was so unfair, they could come to you for sex pretty much whenever they wanted – and there were four of them to satiate. But when you needed to relieve some tension it was suddenly a crime to be horny. You knew how upset they would be if you touched yourself, but you really needed it. To your credit, you held out for all of twenty minutes before you caved, dipping a hand into your panties, pushing a finger in between your wettened folds.
Unbeknownst to you, your daddies did want to help you out, and they had secretly agreed to only make you wait for a little while longer. It was truly unfortunate, as the curtains were pushed open, revealing you toying with your own clit.
“Hah! Knew she couldn’t wait for that long,” Sirius mocked.
Ignoring him, Remus sat down on the side of the bed (also ignoring James’ sniggering that you had chosen his bed to get off in), rubbing your calf comfortably. “Now, now, little one,” do you remember the rules you promised to obey?”
“Yes daddy, I remember them,” you said, confidently, happy that he didn’t seem too angry at you.
“Awe, what a good girl, can you tell them to me?”
Nodding, you happily listed them: “don’t disturb daddies, don’t leave the room, don’t touch myself.”
At your words, Remus’ demeanor changed in an instant, hand slapping your naked thigh. “And what did you do? Huh? What did the little slut do?”
“I’m so sorry daddy, but you said not to interrupt and it was an emergency,” you cry out, shame coloring your cheeks red.
“An emergency?” One of his eyebrows shot up, questioningly.
“Yes, daddy, it really hurted I only had to relieve some tension, it was really uncomfy.”
“What punishment should she get today?” Remus asked, turning his body away from you and facing your other daddies.
You laid perfectly still, waiting with anticipation as they discussed your following punishment in hushed voices. Normally, you’d get punishments you actually really enjoyed, like being spanked, overstimulated or wearing your collar, making you extra bratty sometimes, so you could enjoy some of that kinky stuff. Therefore, you were very excited as they turned back to face you, having decided on a punishment for you.
“Hands up and legs spread apart, love,” said James, before being handed handcuffs from Sirius, who had gone to get the big box of fun.
You obliged, letting James tie your hands up against the headboard, as Sirius tied your legs to either side of the lower end of the bed. Before deeming themselves done, they both tugged lightly at the cuffs, making sure they wouldn’t hurt you.
“Now, little one, you’ve been very bad. First, you tried to interrupt daddies studying, and when that didn’t work you touched yourself,” Remus said, towering before you. “You need to be punished for this, you do understand that, right?”
You nodded, not wanting to break any more rules by speaking out of turn.
“You’re going to stay here, and we’ll put a blindfold on you. Then, we’re going to go down for dinner, and when we get back we’ll each take turns using you, and you may not come during this time.”
The air left your body, disappointment filling you all the way up. Remus made Sirius put the blindfold on you, kissing your head softly before you heard them all leave the dorm, closing the door and leaving you behind.
They usually didn’t take that much time eating dinner, but this day it felt as though they ate every bite in slow motion, chewing all their bites one hundred times and making small talk with everyone in the great hall. You despised them in that moment, hating this new type of mean punishment. It felt as though hours had gone by when the door to their dorm was finally opened. With your senses finely tuned for their return, you made out three sets of footsteps entering the room.
“Have you learned your lesson, little one?” Remus asked you, hand coming down to squeeze your tit.
Not sure if you were allowed to speak, you nodded your head, vigorously. This earned you a slap to the tit.
“Use your words, little slut,” Remus said.
Feeling anger rise back up inside you, you quickly had to swallow it down, not wanting to get into more trouble.
“Yes daddy, I learned my lesson, I will not play with myself without permission again,” you said, obediently.
In return, you received only a hum. They made you wait, laying there, legs spread and arms tied up, all for their pleasure, for a few minutes more, just appreciating your delicious body.
Then, someone joined you on the bed, and by the heat of their body, you figured it was James.
“Hi little baby,” he cooed, kissing your nose and patting your cheek.
“Hi daddy,” you breathed, happy to be touched.
His hand reached down between your legs, spreading the wetness around your pussy, making sure you were ready for the penetration that was undoubtedly about to come. Indeed, a few seconds later, his girthy cock pressed into your little pussy, your walls squeezing tightly around him. He stayed still inside you for a few moments, adjusting to the feeling of your warm cunt hugging his cock. You let out a hiss as his hips started moving, thrusting into you slowly, sensually.
You wished so badly that your arms could wrap around him, holding him close, tugging at the ends of his hair, making him moan into the crook of your neck. The perceived loss made you want to cry, you knew how soft his back was, how lovely it was to run your hands up and down it as his cock continuously pushed against your g-spot. Unable to hold it, you cried out, tears starting to form in your eyes as your body shook through your orgasm.
Thinking the punishment was over, you relaxed your body, letting James chase his own orgasm. They had, however, decided to be extra cruel on this day and so – knowing how much you loved the feeling of them coming inside you, pumping you full of their cum – James pulled out in the last second, cock covering only the outer parts of your glistening pussy in cum.
By now, the tears had saturated the blindfold and started to run down your cheeks, hitting the hair around your face. This didn’t stop them however, as you soon felt Remus join you and James on the bed, lightly pushing James away from you, and taking his place.
“Oh no, our little crybaby can’t even handle some cock, what a shame…” he said, placing his arms on either side of your head, pushing his body up and hovering right above you. “I was going to fuck you, but since you can’t handle it, I’ll just do this instead.” He thrust his hips, cock swiping along your pussy, lubed up from your juices mixed with James’ seed.
Even this was torture for you, it felt amazing to have the head of Remus’ cock push against your clit with every stroke, but you missed the feeling of him inside you. With an arched back and tears streaming down your face, you bucked your hips up to try and make him slide in. This made Remus laugh at you, mockingly and pinch your thigh. “You’re such a little baby,” he mocked, “just a little cockwhore.”
It was like he got off on your tears, hips snapping against yours faster, bringing himself closer to his orgasm. “You love this, don’t you, little crybaby, love taking cock, don’t even care where it goes, as long as you get it, so good f’me, little whore.” You knew he got off on degrading you, knew he loved tearing you down before building you up, but it was hard to remember as he kept throwing insults at you. You almost reached your breaking point as he grabbed a hold of your chin, holding your mouth open and spitting in it. It felt so degrading, but also so hot, you felt overwhelmed as the tip of his cock against your sensitive nub sent you over the edge, both of you coming at the same time, his cum blended with James’ as it ran down your cunt, pooling beneath your bum. Patting your cheek, Remus leant down, kissing your forehead. “Good girl.”
Your body was spent, legs aching, face irritated from the tears, pussy oversensitive from all the fucking. But you knew you had one more daddy to please. Feeling yourself enter another headspace, you braced yourself for Sirius to use you, as the two others had before. “Hi little baby,” he said, softly, wiping the tears from your cheek. “Are you sensitive here?” He pinched your clit, eliciting a very loud noise from the back of your throat. “Hmm, better use this little hole then,” he said, thumb pushing past your lips.
Climbing over your body, he placed his knees on either side of you, fore and middle fingers pushing into your mouth, pressing against the back of your throat, making you drool all over your chin and throat. “Yeah, that’s a good little slut,” he said, as his fingers left your mouth, cock pushing into it instead.
You lost all perception of reality as your head went deep into subspace, mouth falling open, all for your daddies’ pleasure. You trusted them completely, and knew they’d take care of you, so you allowed yourself to let go, filling your head with only daddy Sirius, and, most importantly, his cock, sliding in and out of your open mouth. You had no idea how much time passed until he pulled out, jerked himself a few times, and then spilled over your face, fingers coming down to spread the mess around.
Somewhere in the background, you heard a camera snap, but you couldn’t be sure, as you had lost all touch of reality. You didn’t even notice your hands and legs being untied, didn’t feel the soft, warm hands rubbing the points that had been tied. When the blindfold was pulled off, you weren’t at all prepared for the ache in your eyes as light hit.
“Hi baby,” James said, kissing you all over your face, brushing the teary hair away.
“Sit up love,” said Sirius before pulling one of Remus’ shirts over your head, helping you put your arms through the holes. He then scooted himself behind you, letting your back fall against his chest. James still caressing your face, kissing you and whispering sweet words.
“Here you go, love, open up,” Remus said, pushing a straw into your mouth, helping you drink water. When you had swallowed the water, he lifted a fork up to your face. They had brought you dinner.
Once he had made you eat a few bites, he put the plate away for a little bit, taking your hands in his and rubbing them softly. “Are you with us, darling?”
You giggled, “Yes daddy, I’m right here.” Still lost in subspace, you didn’t understand the silly question.
“That you are, love, my bad,” he said, kissing your hands. “I love you so much, little one, you did so well for us.”
“You really did,” Sirius agreed from behind you, “such a good girl.”
“Thank you daddy,” you said, feeling yourself become shy at their kind words.
“Let’s get some rest,” James said, moving you from Sirius’ lap and pulling you into his body. Your hands instinctively went around his neck, fingers burying themselves in soft locks of messy hair.
“Love you daddies,” you said, contently, before you fell asleep in the arms of your lovers.

Clown Doll Reader with a few different Yans (Lab Monster, Murder Clowns, Crime Boss, Bodyguard and Co-Host)
"Introducing the new Cloudy Acres Talking Clown Doll! Equipped with over a hundred phrases - this extra soft, extra cuddly plush will be all yours for ages of fun, friendship, and when you're in need of a big hug. Cherry scented!"
Lab Monster
The recording pauses. Beady eyes swift to anger center on the doll held in spindly limbs, a medium for the entity's rage found in the stitched smile. Its dripping jowls nuzzle and nip at the soft fabric skin; slinder talons yanking the toy's plastic cord.
"Are you having a good day? Mine's spectacular, cause I'm with you!"
The creature croons, raising its pitch to match the toy's bubbly air. "Youuu." It sinks its face into the doll's plush body, chirping and cooing with glee. Its coarse tongue tears at the doll's mouth stitching at it drags the slippery muscle back up to its lips, screwing into the fabric. The onlookers immediately look away, turning to face each other.
"I still don't see the reason we enable it so much. It's speech recognition has improved greatly, but this attachment to this television host could be a crutch in the future."
"Its hostility levels have greatly decreased since this introduction to the outside world. We only have one caretaker out on medical leave now rather than four in a body bag."
"True, but I still think we should cut these ties eventually."
"We really shouldn't have this discussion on free dress day. I can clearly see the signed shirt you're wearing."
Murder Clowns
The group of technicolor fiends crowd around their leader with their own mini idols in arms as said ringling pulls the string on their doll and holds it in the air.
"Smile!"
Cheers and hollers rivaling crowds twenty times their number break out within the group; the screams of those beside them as infectionous as the little clown's happy jingle and rebounding off each other. One of the clown's holding the truck driver at the back corner of the vehicle lightly smacks the back of his head - tears flowing anew.
"That means you too."
-
Crime Boss
The tired store clerk rubs sleep from their eyes as they look up at the imposing figure. "Please- we haven't unloaded the shipment of those dolls yes. I'm sure you're child can wait until tomorrow morning..."
The boss nods at their on hand lackey. Without hesitation, they pull the gun from their holster and point it at his face. "I'm sure others can wait, but I have a meeting at dawn and I'd like to take what's mine before those greasy brats damage the whole stock so if you would be so kind - hand over the fucking keys."
Bodyguard and Co-Host
"Dont look so down. Lemme kiss everything better! Mwah, mwah."
Your bodyguard pushes the doll out of their face, swallowing the urge to your co-star in their puckered lips no matter how hard it fights to the surface. Mini you's were strapped to them everywhere the eye could see. From their hoodie pockets to their arms and atop their head - your co-star happily showed off their collect and used them to tease your poor guard.
"Look at this one. Limited edition, and they glow in the dark. Not supposed to come out unless next year! Such a cutie aren't they?"
"I don't care. Leave me alone." Your bodyguard pushes past your co-star who juggles the plushies and uses their body as a cushion before they hit the ground. Your guard speed walks away, glancing around every corner with each turn. Alone in your dressing room, they pull a doll from their pocket and tug its wire.
"I love you!"
They flush, smiling from ear to ear.

cregan stark x rhaenyra’s daughter. she flies to winterfell to gather support for rhaneyra but she falls head over heels for cregan as well. could you add that she had a past relationship with aemond ( you don’t have to though)
Like Stormy Seas, Like Rough Clouds
Cregan Stark x Velaryon! (Strong) reader
A/N: The reader is still not completely over Aemond, but she realises he was not what she wanted, or she was not what he wanted. She has the typical Strong brown hair-brown eyes appearance.
Tumblr media
Warnings: Strong language, abusive relationship, mentions of death, some angst.
Word count: 2.7k
The cold wind felt like daggers of dragonglass on your face as you gazed at the rough seas that surrounded your home. Dragonstone was not a cheerful place, the war had made it more glum. Your mother had locked herself up in her chambers the day Daemon came with the news of Lucerys’ death. You didn’t understand her pain, but your own crushed you inside. It broke your soul, took your joy, and rendered you unstable. The pain of losing a brother was great, but the pain of losing him to someone you once loved more than life itself tore at your entire being. You felt like a shell, your memories with him ran through your mind like a play. 
You had your eyes closed as you breathed in the scent of a flower you hadn’t seen in the gardens before, it smelled sweet, but different from the others. “My lady seems to be enjoying herself,” came the smooth voice of your uncle. “Tis’ not every day mother nature visits one with a new treat, uncle,” you said, holding the flower up to his slender face. “Letting your guard down like this for all to see? The stranger may send you one as well,” he said, mocking you but taking the flower from your hands nonetheless. “It’s sweet, isn’t it?” you asked. “I’ve known sweeter things,” he said, his eyes looking down upon you as he relished in the fact you knew what, or rather, who, he meant.
You remembered how you had craved his attention at the keep. You had been friends with Aemond when you were children, and you had felt yourself dangled in a noose between your love for him and your love for your family the day Lucerys butchered him. Aemond refused contact with you after that. You found yourself at the keep again as you turned ten and seven, your mother had wished for you to celebrate you becoming a mature woman with your grandsire. You chased Aemond like a lost pup for your entire month-long stay in the castle. Aemond played along. And his play became a reality as he found himself taking your maidenhead in his chambers one night. He had begun to love you. As much as a damaged man could.
“We cannot do this any longer,” you cried. “Do you not love me?” asked Aemond, his voice cold as his back was turned to you. The whole family had supper that day together. You sat beside Helaena next to the head of the table where Aemond sat. Jace had set his eyes upon you the entire time, sneaking you off to the side to ask you if something had occurred between you and your uncle. It had scared the soul out of you, and you had gone to the one person you admired so much you hoped he'd show you the way. Unfortunately for you, Aemond was set on doing anything but. “If my mother finds out-” “What of it?” he spoke over you. “I have claimed you,” he said. “No Lord would want a whore who’s been bedded by her uncle, no one will love you as I,” he said. Tears streamed down your face as each word he said came as a jab to your heart. “You do not mean that,” you said, wiping your tears as he turned. He opened his arms to you as you reluctantly found yourself in his embrace. “I mean every word I say, you are mine,” he whispered to you. “No one but I will love you,” he held you tight.
A heated discussion had been tearing the rocks of Dragonstone as Daemon wished for nothing but revenge. Who stood for the Queen, and who against? It was not clear. You had begged and begged to have your mother let you fight for her. She had ushered you to your chambers, you speaking for your rights as she refused over and over again. You only stopped asking at the shock of her harsh palm on your cheek. You held your face, looking at her with great confusion. “I will not lose another child, my only daughter to this war,” she had said, leaving you with a burning reminder on your face that you would never be allowed to fight for her. Your stomach churned at being called her only daughter, your mind reminding you of the little Visenya you would have loved, a little girl you would teach womanly things to, braid her hair, tell her she is no less than a man, teach her the histories and philosophies that made your world. Memories of all sorts ran haphazardly through your head, your sweet moments with Aemond, your tears for Lucerys, your step-father's anger towards your mother, and nothing seemed to calm your racing mind. The rough waves flowed on par with your thoughts. The ground rumbled beneath you as you turned around. “Sagon gīda, gēlenka,”  be calm, silver. You had claimed the magnificent Silverwing when you were only ten and three. She had been your everything since then. She was your anger, your wrath, your joy, and your fire. She was your dragon. And you mounted her in the dying light of the Sun taking off for the North. Your mother had said no, but after incessant begging from both you and Daemon, she had reluctantly agreed. 
Tumblr media
You felt your fingers numb despite the layers of clothing you wore as you flew higher up North. You were a dragon, you were fire, and you weren’t made for the cold. Silverwing made her landing near the castle of Winterfell, the Northmen gazing at your dragon in awe as all men did. You wore a black dress, its sleeves up to your wrists and its neckline up to your jaw. Golden embroidery spread across the expanse of your chest. You wore a few layers under it, but it seemed to not save you from the biting winter one bit. Your dark hair was tied halfway up behind you, wild from your flight, gold resting amongst the dark strands. Your palms and fingers were raw and bleeding. You never wore riding gloves, and you suffered the consequences. You’d rather have raw palms than lose the sensorial bond between your dragon and yourself. 
SIlverwing had given your identity away as the guards opened the gates for you, offering you a slight bow. You nodded at them. You were escorted to where the Lord of the North sat. Your presence was announced as you entered the darkly lit hall. Cregan Stark was sitting on a high chair as he watched you walk to the centre of the room. 
“Good morrow, Princess, we are delighted to have you at Winterfell,” he said to you. “Good morrow to you as well, Lord Stark, I thank you for your graciousness,” you said. You knew power when you saw it. You saw it in your mother, the rightful heir to the Iron Throne. You saw it in your stepfather Daemon, the Rogue Prince, and a sliver of it in your past lover, Aemond. And now, you saw it in the wolfish man that sat in front of you. He was a large man, with skin like the snow and hair like onyx, matching stubble on his face. His eyes were grey like the storms you often saw at Dragonstone. 
“What brings you to the North, princess?” he asked. His voice was deep, holding the air of authority that made the young girl hidden under your burdened heart giddy. You cleared your throat, quieting your own thoughts, lifting a scroll in your hand as one of the guards came to collect it from you. 
“Lord Stark, as you are aware, your father, the late Lord Rickon Stark, had pledged fealty to my mother, the Queen. With the unfortunate passing of my Grandsire, my half-uncle has usurped the throne from my mother and claims to be King of the seven kingdoms. I’ve only come here to assure you remember your father’s oath,” you said. Your voice held confidence. Cregan had been watching you intently as you spoke, his eyes flicking to the scroll in his hands only once as he quickly scanned over the words. 
“Of course Princess, I will honour the oath my father pledged to your mother, House Stark is loyal to Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen. We will provide you with what you need at Raven’s ask, be it men or refuge, or be it our undying loyalty,” he said to you, with clarity in his voice like he didn’t need to go over this in his head for even a moment. 
“Thank you, for your support my Lord. I shall report this to my mother immediately,” you said, making a turn, readying yourself mentally for another long flight. “If you do not mind Princess, it is a harsh Night, why don’t you stay here at the Castle, you may fly on the morrow,” said the Lord. You thought it over. He was not wrong, the temperature would only get colder with the night. You did not wish to die from the cold before the war even concluded. “Then I will gladly make my stay here,” you said. 
The guards had led you to a room for the night. You sat near the fire, so close to the flames you believed the hair on your head would be scorched, and you almost thought you saw your fingers darkening with ash. Your head whipped to the door at a harsh knock. “Princess? May I come in?” came a voice. You knew it was Lord Stark. “Yes of course,” you said, smiling sheepishly when the door cracked open and his eyes landed on your crouched figure near the fire.
He chuckled, nodding to a woman behind him. The maid approached you, a blanket of fur lay in her hands. “Tis’ a coat for you, I had assumed the cold must be too trying of you,” he said, entering the chamber. You smiled at the maid, who quickly put the coat around you. “Not that I wish to seem meek, my Lord, you had assumed right. I fear I would’ve ended up falling into the hearth had you not brought me this surprisingly soft coat,” you said, eyes widening at the sheer delicate touch of the blanket of warmth on you. You took your place on a chair in front of him, though still remaining close to the fire. 
“I understand, cold like this does not suit all, especially those who are used to being around fire,” he said, a glint in his eye as he said it. You smiled at him. “I assume you’ve met Silverwing from afar,” you said. “She is a beautiful creature, although I fear I’m not one to see her for much beyond her ability to leave me nothing but a scorched corpse,” he said. “She will not hurt you, my lord, at least not in my presence,” you laughed, taking the glass of wine he poured you. “If you wish, I can arrange for supper here, it is only I in the castle,” he said. “If it isn’t too much trouble,” you requested. “Of course,” he said, calling out to one of the guards.
Moments later, some maids brought trays full of delicious bread and different meats and vegetables. The both of you ate in comfortable silence, occasionally exchanging words. There was something so simple in this moment, a comfort between the both of you that you hadn’t experienced in a while. “If you do not mind, may I ask you something?” he said. “Of course,” you replied, intrigued eyes looking up at him. “I’ve heard dragons have a close bond with their riders, it is said they can feel what their riders do, has anything as such been indicated to you by your own?” he asked. You thought it over for a moment.
Silverwing was very protective of you, but she would get more protective if you were on your bleed, she would get more aggressive when you were agitated, and she would make those purring sounds when you felt comfortable. And she despised Aemond. She hated him near herself, and near you. She never attempted to harm him, but she made her distaste of him quite obvious, same for most of your enemies. “In some ways, I believe it is true, her protectiveness and agitation in some situations do indicate what you say, but I do not believe this holds true for all dragons, only for some,” you said, and he nodded thoughtfully.
You gazed into his grey eyes, they were beautiful, not beautiful like the violet in your silver-haired family members, not prideful like Aemond’s, his eyes told stories of ships lost at stormy seas, of the rough clouds you flew through. His eyes showed curiosity and warmth, you felt like if you were to crawl into his arms, all would be well. You did not wish to sound like a silly girl one would view as nothing but a brood-mare of high status, but you wanted him to hold you and make you feel safe. You wanted him to tell you all would be right in the world, he would make it so. You wished to touch the soft hair on his face, to rest your head on his strong chest, to have him wrap his arms around you, to have him take your hands in his own. You felt so juvenile.
“What does flying feel like, princess?” he asked. “I could not say. It is the sheer terror of falling to death, freedom, and pleasure in solidarity, it makes me feel like a god, watching everything rendered so little from atop the sky. The sky looks so distinct above the clouds. It gets colder, the air lighter, breathing becomes more challenging, but the sky is so captivating, it is unlike anything you’ve seen,” you said. Lord Stark did not reply. He seemed to enjoy questioning you and thinking your answers over. All simple questions, but truly innocent. He did not have an evil sense behind his words. It was simple, like a warm fire licking at your skin in the snow-struck lands. There was no snark to decipher like the words of your stepfather, no mocking like your siblings, and no cunning like the words of the greens, no cunning like the words of Aemond. It was just curiosity, simple as that.
As he stood up to make his exit, you stood up as well. You looked up at him when he said, “You know princess, I would love to show the North to you, it is quite exquisite, though nothing compared to the sky above the clouds as you describe if you are willing to make your stay here longer,” he said. You smiled at him shyly. “I will think it over my lord,” you said.
You watched him leave, realising that since the moment you’d been in his presence, there was a calmness in your head. You did not feel the impending doom of war on you when you were busy staring into his eyes. A few maids came to remove the multiple layers of clothing from you, but you put on the coat again, curling yourself up in the blanket as well before you let sleep take you, and for once in a long time, you found yourself easily drifting to sleep in the comfort of the furs and your empty head. There was a warmth in your heart, and it almost made you want to stay in the North forever and forget about your duties, and your family. Maybe one day, when all of that was over, you could return to the North, to Lord Stark and ask for his hand in marriage. You would love to stay in the North, in a land white as clouds, in the warm arms of the warden of the North as you’d gaze upon his kingdom.
One day, you could learn what love truly meant, not obsession, not sly need, not a cunning need for control, love.

Daddy Duties.
Tumblr media
Severus Snape x Reader
wordcount: 640
warnings: Fluff, Minor errors. (Severus is a good daddy <3)
Credit to the creator of this gif.
C/N- Child’s Name - Y/N- Your Name
Severus stood at the front of his classroom, his wand in one hand and a stack of essays in the other. He had just finished lecturing his fifth-year Slytherins on the finer points of potion-making when he heard a small voice calling out to him.
"Daddy!"
Severus turned to see his three-year-old daughter, C/N, toddling down the aisle between the desks. She was wearing a bright pink dress and her curly hair was tied back into two messy pigtails.
"C/N" Severus said, his voice softening with his eyes glued on her. "What are you doing here?"
"Bumblebee sent me!" C/N said, grinning up at him with her toothy smile. She was referring to Dumbledore.
Severus sighed inwardly. He glanced to see Dumbledore standing in the doorway of his classroom, smiling. He had been so busy with his work that he had forgotten that you had asked him to watch C/N while you were called away to business.
"Well, you can't be here right now," Severus said, setting down his essays. "I'm teaching."
"But I want to stay with you," C/N said as she wined.
Severus hesitated. He couldn't very well send his daughter away, but he couldn't exactly have her in the classroom either. He looked around the room, searching for a solution.
Finally, he had an idea. He conjured up a small, cushioned chair and placed it at the front of the room near his desk.
"You can sit here," he said, lifting her up and placing her in the chair. "But you have to be very quiet and still. Daddy is teaching a class."
C/N nodded solemnly, her big brown eyes fixed on her father. Severus picked up his wand and resumed his lecture, keeping a watchful eye on his daughter out of the corner of his eye.
For a while, C/N was content to watch her father teach. She sat quietly in her chair, her small hands folded in her lap, as Severus droned on about the proper way to brew a healing potion. But then she grew restless.
"Daddy," she whispered, tugging on his sleeve. "I'm bored." Severus could hear the nearby students giggling at the toddlers sudden outburst.
Severus sighed. "You have to be patient, C/N. Daddy will be finished soon." He mentioned, striking a stern smug toward the students to silence them.
Y/N scrunched up her nose. "But I don't like potions," she said, sticking out her bottom lip.
Severus raised an eyebrow. "You don't?”
C/N shook her head. "It's boring."
Severus couldn't help but smile. "Well, what do you like then?"
C/N thought for a moment. "I like unicorns," she said, her face lighting up.
Severus chuckled. "Unicorns?"
C/N nodded vigorously. "Can we talk about unicorns?"
Severus glanced at his class, who were all staring at him with varying degrees of amusement and confusion. He cleared his throat.
"It seems we have a new topic for today's lesson," he said dryly. "Unicorns."
Severus spent the next half hour discussing the mythology and symbolism of unicorns with his daughter, much to the amusement of his students. C/N listened, occasionally interrupting with questions. When the lesson was over, she clapped her hands in delight.
"That was fun, Daddy!" she said, beaming up at him.
Severus smiled, feeling relief wash over him. He had managed to keep his daughter entertained and had even taught his students something new.
As class was shortly dismissed, Severus paced over to C/N holding the toddler in his arms as he held her close.
He placed a gentle kiss on the side of her face. His daughter made him feel vulnerable at times. But he always embraced moments like these.
“Thank you, Daddy.” C/N smiled as she pressed her forehead against his chest.
“You are more than welcome, My sweet,” Severus replied, feeling a smile creep on his lips.
He would do this again without hesitation, just for his daughter.

Baldwin IV x Reader
Imagine you meet the king as a foreign princess, and you two are to be wed? But to your surprise. The king is all for it
(warnings: mention of skin disease, stitches, detailed explanations for violent scenes)
(this fic is in no way tied to the real figure, this is only for the movie interpretation. As I do not write for real figures (dead or alive))
Tumblr media
For the longest time, I never thought I'd find love a man who was not only a man of God, but would too love me. My mother, after all, was nothing more than a concubine. So I didn't quite have a good example from her nor father who couldn't set his eyes on one. But that all changed when Jerusalem called to many kingdoms, many were there to feel the presence of God, and so was I. I were to travel on my own but it seemed as though father had other plans. Every night that got closer to Jerusalem, whether by ship or horse, I could hear him speak with the advisers and other higher ups of a wedding, mine. I did not wish to get upset just yet, for I prayed heavily that the man I meet is someone with a wise, excellent, and beautiful heart, for faces did not matter once one was in heaven. But on the 7th night, something had happened. While we rested round a campfire in order to rest from the morning heat waves, we heard horses of at least 9 or so men rushing are way, father said these may be pilgrims, and that we need not to worry. But as they came closer it seemed they were none other than knights, dressed in pure white and red cross at the center of the chest. Father got up and waved at them, but a horse man swang his sword straight into his hand, cutting a chunk of skin out. I couldn't hold but the scream I let out as the blood hit my dress, I curled up against my horse when I felt a second horseman strike against my leg, only a cut but it no less hurt. They were ready to strike a final blow but I could see a blue clothed horseman arrive, he stood before us and looked at the white clothed horseman.
-------------
"do these look like locals, Guy? Have you any clue the harm you have caused against your king?" said the blue clothed horseman
"I have not a clue of what your talking about Tiberias. These people are in the boarders of our enemies, are they not are enemies?" the white clothed horseman who's name seemed to be Guy seemed all smug, or at least arrogant at best, in his answer. He seemed to not care that I had been cut, nor my father who held to his injury.
"these people, Guy, are the bride to be and her father. Had you have asked, they'd already been at the castle discussing matters beyond your small minded arrogance!" the man in blue, Tiberias, seemed familiar to father, as father tried to reach out to him. Soon the white clothed men who hurt us got us up and carried our things, by dawn we were at the castle. What a shame it was nighttime, for the city, and castle, were beautiful. Some physicians stitched my father's injuries and mine, and I were to meet his highness, my groom to be. In the bright morning I headed to his quarters, I felt at ease once opening the door, For it was just him, and me.
---------
Baldwin moved the headwrap away from his face, seeing that my groom to be was masked. I could only wonder why, had he committed a crime? Was he afraid of being spied on? It was common for the women to hide their face before marriage, but I'd never seen a man do it.
"ah, Y/N. You have arrived, I have hoped in one piece, but you were harmed. For which the man who laid hands upon you will be harmed, no doubt in that" he said as he rose up from his chair and gestured for me to follow, we reached the balcony and I looked over at him, then at the city.
"your highness.. It's unnecessary for you to punish him" I said as I turned my head back to the man I stood with, "he did not purposely harm me". I felt the king shake his head and hold my hand, "no, my dear Y/N. But he would have harmed another's life, innocent or not. As a knight, it is his only duty, as demanded by God, to never lay a finger on a innocent". Listening to him speak, it moved something in my heart I had not felt for anyone I had ever known, Yes, I was his soon to be bride, but I couldn't help but feel something. "Y/N. Just as it is the duty of a king to protect his people, it is my duty as your husband to protect you. I promise, even with my condition" he said, I could see his eyes looking away as though he felt ashamed, but of what?
"what condition your highness?" I held his hand more firmly, to which he did not respond, not even a finger moved on his hand
"i am a lepper king, my dear, that is the matter. My body is weak, yes, but I won't let it stop me" he looked back at me. He noticed I held his hand firmly when he looked down at mine, I saw his eyes smile at the sight
"your highness, you love me so even though we have no knowledge of one another, why?"
"for you see Y/N, a marriage is bond between man and woman, a bond of flesh to flesh, it is God's blessing to the people, and if God has blessed me with such a bride as you, Y/N, then who am I to deny it?" he spoke with such a heartfelt tone, I knew in that moment that this was the man of my prayers. I couldn't help but feel tears run down my face. I knew that his condition could bring his end, but I wanted to love him to the day we depart from the earth. I placed my hand on his mask and wanted to lay a kiss on his lips, but he gently stopped me.
"you need to know the lips you lay your kiss upon, as you are my wife, I want you to be sure" He said as he pulled down the mask. A cut through his lips and right cheek was the first thing I saw, his missing nose, and his small blonde hairs coming down from the headwrap. He held my hand as though he asked of what I thought. "my Baldwin.. Your a beautiful man, why you are afraid I can understand, but I love you not for your looks, but the heart" i said as I leaned to him, I felt his lips touch mine. I closed my eyes and placed my hands upon his cheeks, i knew in that moment that all my days of waiting, my prayers, my journeys, were worth having him. We soon left one another's lips
"I love you till the day we part, Baldwin"
"I love you, for everyday I live in your name, Y/N"

Kinktober Day 4 - Sex Toys
Pairing: Dick Grayson x AFAB!reader
Summary: Could be seen as a follow up to the Fuck up the Friendship series. Dick finally fulfills his promise.
Warning: overstimulation, bondage, if you’re under 18 go tf away!!
Note: we are BACK. the blog is no longer shadowbanned! also I got rearended this week soooo I didn’t write until today haha. Pls enjoy.
Tumblr media
The waiting was the worst part.
Dick stood off to the side of the bed, his blue eyes studying your splayed out form. You tested the slack of the silken ropes holding your arms above your head and huffed out a frustrated breath when you realized that, of course, he had tied it with the efficiency of a vigilante. Really, one day you were going to have to ream Bruce out for his paranoid tendencies and the extreme training he put his kids under. Wait, there was no way in hell you were going to discuss Dick’s rope expertise with his father, that’s just opening you up for teas-
A startled gasp escaped your lungs as the pink toy in your cunt jumped to life. Dick had nestled the pretty pink egg-like object between the folds of your pussy and promised you that he would finally fulfill that promise he had made when you first started dating.
You just didn’t think he would be devious enough to get a fucking remote controlled vibrator.
The toy buzzed to life, surging and falling in various waves as he dragged his thumb across the screen of his phone. Dick chuckled at the sight of your arms and legs pulling at the ropes keeping them tied to the bed. Normally, he would pin you down with his strong, steady hand, but he wanted to free his hands this time.
You tried to close your legs against the continuous vibration, but the ropes stopped you. A whine escaped your lips as he increased the vibrations and it was almost embarrassing how you were almost coming right then and there. Dick held the vibration steady and your cunt clenched around the toy. He watched as you futilely strained against the bonds, a smile curling up at the corner of his lips.
Your body tensed and flexed as your first orgasm washed over you and the vibrations were lowered to something more manageable, like a low hum rather than a raging storm. Dick gave you a moment to catch your breath before he pushed the setting up higher and your hips canted up as if following the sensation.
And then you heard it.
Another buzzing.
You barely had a moment to realize what was happening when the wand vibrator landed on your clit and a startled yelp escaped you. Fuck, there was so many sensations happening at one time that you didn’t know what to focus on. It felt simultaneously like too much and not enough. You wanted it so badly.
“Look at how well you’re taking this,” Dick hummed. “I promised you, didn’t I?”
Yeah, he had. And he was a little bitch. He had promised to make you forget your own name, replacing it with his on your tongue. He was succeeding.
Your clit pulsed at the touch of the wand and you grit your teeth at the overwhelming sensation. Orgasm two barreled towards you like a rushing bull and you couldn’t even pause before it consumed you.
Throwing your head back with a shout, your body seized against the constant assault, but Dick wasn’t letting up. Orgasm three followed on the cusp of two and your brain went completely blank and fuzzy around the edges.
“Dick,” you crooned. “Dickie please.”
“One more, baby, you can give me one more.”
You panted out your protest, but you could already feel orgasm four building. You tilted your head to the side so you could see him, your eyes locking with his through the haze of pleasurable tears and brain fog.
“Please, Nightwing.”
His eyes darkened, pupils fully blown from lust and devouring his iris. He slid his thumb down to keep the vibration in a steady line and pressed the wand a little harder against your clit. You came with a wail, cunt seizing against the constant stimulation, and just like that, the vibrations were gone.
Or maybe you had gone completely blank.
Because the next time you blinked, the toys were gone, your hands and feet were untied, and Dick was stroking the soft fabric of a damp washcloth across your heated, sensitive skin. You let out a hiss as the cloth brushed against your aching cunt and he murmured out an apology before leaning down and pressing a kiss to your navel. One of your hands slid through his hair and you stroked your thumb over the shell of his ear.
“Thanks,” you said, voice hoarse. “I needed that.”
“Anytime, babe.”

Joy Where We Find It
John and Scott send each other photos of cats they find. It's a love language.
There's so much fluff here. This started with a delightful discussion with the wonderful @edutainer2022:
"Oh, now I think sending cat pics is a John and Scott thing. John is pretty much a human shaped ginger cat. Cat pics are his love language Scott gets and appreciates. Scott sees more live cats planetside on IR rescues and Teacy Industries trips - and snaps cats for John. But Scott is pretty much a cheetah himself- a large lithe cat, built for speed. John gets what many don't about big brother. And sends him cats."
---
Scott crouched down, wiggling his fingers and making clicky noises towards the ball of fluff and whiskers he could see peering at him from beneath the bench, heedless of the other people surrounding him on the sidewalk. If the kitty could just come a little closer, he could snap a picture on his phone before reluctantly making the return journey to back the the office. 
He placed his freshly fetched keep cup full of coffee down on the bench, stretching out a hand and reminding himself to wait patiently for the cat to come to him. That was something that had taken him a while to learn until John clued him in. Cats were like John, really, or John was pretty much a human shaped ginger cat: both preferred to be given time to chose to make the approach themselves rather than suddenly having their space invaded, no matter how well meaningly.
Taking the moment was rewarded when the cat curiously peeked out and wandered towards him, tail held up with the tip curled over. It was covered in a delightful mess of ginger, black and white, like a little brother had splodged paint all over it. Scott smothered a laugh. There had been that one time with Virgil and their childhood cat…
Moving slowly, he pulled his phone out of his suit pants pocket and took a photo, flicking it off to John with a smile. 
--
John kicked off the wall of Thunderbird Five’s hub, rippling the holograms beneath his feet. He turned another backwards flip, with a dual purpose of revelling in the sensation of the movement and keeping himself occupied in the lulls between calls.
A new message pinged and he immediately twisted around then dispersed his momentum by delicately colliding with a different wall to read it.
-Scott Tracy: Kitty cat for you Jay!!!!!
The attached image of a calico cat had John grinning. 
Before he had a chance to reply, another message came through of a close of of the cat’s whiskered face with Scott’s hand in the frame rubbing around its ears. John could practically hear the contented purring. 
-John Tracy: Awwwwww a sweetheart!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, that was exactly the number of exclamation marks he needed to express his joy and make sure Scott knew it. 
Overtime, sending pictures of cats back and forth to each other had become one of their things and it delighted them both. It meant they got to share so many moments with each other, even far apart, and it was often the beginning of more conversations, even if they had to happen in five minute bursts between busy moments. It was a way of showing they remembered and cared for and were thinking of the other. A love language all of its own. Plus, cats!
Scott saw more live cats up close because he was planetside on IR rescues and for TI, but when John was down he made up for it with tours of the world’s universities he got to lecture at by their cat populations he befriended. 
His brother could be rather cat-like too, more of a large, lithe cheetah built for speed. Or a house moggy with a propensity for climbing the walls and always finding the highest place possible to perch, no matter how impossible it seemed to get to. John shared in that too, they were both often found on the rooftops, stargazing or sunning themselves, with a large hat and extraordinary amounts of sunscreen especially in John’s case, but he wasn’t going to let Scott get cooked either.
On occasion, Scott did also get the mad, dash around the house, hyperactive zoomies of a cat, where he couldn’t possibly sit still. It was always delightful when Scott let himself mess around and lean into it.
One of John’s favourite memories as a kid was of him and Scott curled up together, practically on top of each other in a nest of blankets with books of all sorts and many toy planes within reach. Mum had come in and snapped a photo of them, laughing fondly, “Like cats in a basket!”
He probably had the photo around here somewhere, he’d downloaded a lot of their childhood photos to Five’s memory banks as well as the data storage on the island. He hadn’t seen it in years. With Eos’ help, he found it in a few minutes. He did have to explain to her why he was blinking away tears as they welled up in his eyes as he’d forgotten how he and Scott had been wearing matching blue pyjamas covered in stars because they’d both been going through a phase of wanting to have the exact same things as the other so as to not be left out.
He sent it off to Scott.
-John Tracy: Cat basket :)
Bubbles signifying typing disappeared and reappeared as Scott on the other side of the world figured out what to say. John gave Scott the same patience he gave to him when John was gathering his words for the exact ones he wanted to say.
-Scott Tracy: Next time we are both home? If you want.
-John Tracy: Of course. When you get back, I’ll take the elevator down for the weekend.
He could cuddle up with Scott and take a moment to just be together. It was well past time they did, it always got to this point which they really needed do something about.
Suddenly the only place John wanted to be was curled into Scott’s side, with a good book and maybe some hot chocolate for them both too, surrounded by as many blankets as they could find.
Scott sent through another burst of photos of the cat from before, including a few selfies of it sitting in his lap, snuggled up to him. He was grinning happily and that was worth the world, no matter the cat hair on navy blue suiting nor the coffee that was doubtless half cold and nearly forgotten.
John loved his brother so much. He kicked off another celebratory flip, joy sparking brightly as a glowing star in the centre of his chest.

Gestational or traditional:
Series link!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jack stumbled out of bed with a tightness in his chest, his stomach had been in knots all night and he had a hard time sleeping. When he finally forced himself out of bed and started to get ready the reality had finally set in.
He checked the time for what felt like the millionth time that morning, he didn’t want to be late. This process wasn’t something he took lightly and he didn’t want it to appear that way either. He had arranged a driver and his lawyer would be coming with him to make sure all of this would remain confidential. He thumbed over Urban's contact in his phone multiple times before biting back his ego and calling him.
“Hey man” Jack wheezed out nervously.
“I’m on my way” Urban hummed before hanging up. He knew Jack would change his mind, he had already gotten up and ready for the day and was waiting by the phone. You’re not friends with someone for as long as they’ve been friends without really knowing one another.
When Urban arrived at Jack's place he noticed how anxious he was. “Are you having second thoughts?” Urban sat down next to him as Jack rubbed his temples.
“No, I’m sure I want to do this. I’m just nervous” Jack admitted.
“That feeling doesn’t go away. I’m nervous every single day” Urban sighed before continuing. “Being a dad is terrifying. It’s all about constantly worrying about them and wishing you could save them from bullies or heartbreaks. It’s also really rewarding and a love that is unexplainable.”
Jack only nodded, his inability to find the words was something common when it came to this subject.
Eventually Jack, Urban, his attorney Saul, and his driver Matthew were on their way to the surrogacy agency. Jack tried to distract himself by scrolling on his phone but didn’t have much luck.
When the three men entered the building together Jack led the way. He signed in at the front desk and was quickly escorted to a private room with Urban and Saul in tow.
Once all the legal paperwork required for surrogacy was taken care of the conversation started to flow.
Jack had already been screened financially and his background check had been run, meaning he had started this process a while ago. It was a shock for Urban to hear when they usually told each other everything.
A surrogacy specialist by the name of Phoebe sat with Jack and discussed his options. Phoebe had a lot of experience with high-profile clients so she wasn’t phased by this process at all.
“Mr. Harlow! It’s so nice to see you. Who do we have with us today?”
“You already know Saul, but this is my best friend Urban Wyatt.” Jack motioned toward Urban who firmly shook Phoebes' hand.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Wyatt.” She smiled before turning back to Jack “Have you taken some time to think about the surrogacy option you’d like to pursue?”
“Traditional” Jack responded confidently, although he was anything but, admittedly still confused by the difference.
“I know we spoke previously about gestational surrogacy, may I ask why the change of heart?”
Urban looked over at Jack confused, wondering what the difference was between the two.
“I just prefer traditional. It seems like it would be less hassle” Jack swallowed. Truthfully, he had originally had someone in mind that he considered asking to donate their egg but he didn’t have the guts to follow through.
“Well, you can still choose gestational surrogacy by picking an egg donor who has no ties to the baby. If you choose traditional the woman carrying the baby is also the biological mother.” Phoebe knew it was a lot of information so she handed Jack some pamphlets.
Urban held on to them for him, watching as Jack's hands shook.
“If we chose gestational surrogacy, would they would have legal ties to the child?” Jack was worried about that, no doubt.
“So I spoke with your attorney previously about this and we do have tons of private donors, meaning they gave us a lot of their medical history and required information. However, do not wish to be identified or contacted throughout this process.”
“So they just donated their eggs, and that’s it?”
“ I was under the impression that’s what you wanted, yes?”
Jack nodded, his biggest fear was starting this process and somebody interfering with it. He wanted to make sure that nobody would come between him and his future child. “Yes! I’d like to look at private donors.”
Phoebe handed Jack a thick binder, “These are private donors and all of their details. How about you take a few days to look through the egg donors and then we can find a surrogate to carry. This process is a lengthy one.”
Urban watched as his best friend held the binder close to his chest as he shook hands with Phoebe and walked out of the room.
Urban did a little jog to catch up to Jack who still hadn’t said a word. “You alright?”
Jack swallowed hard, nodding nervously as the three of them got back into the car. He immediately started to look through the binder at donors.
“Do you want me to go home with you? We can order food and look through that?” Urban was unsure how to help but wanted Jack to know he’d be there if he wanted him to be.
“Yeah, are you sure? Alessandra doesn’t need help with the kids?”
“No, I told her we had some business stuff to take care of” Urban smiled.
“I’ll be ready to tell some people soon. I just want to get this started first” Jack sighed feeling the pressure.
“You do that when you’re ready dude! I’m not pushing you to tell anyone.” Urban shrugged.
“I wanted to tell Clay but he’s going to busy with his own stuff now.”
“You know he’s never too busy for you, you’re his brother.”
Jack sat back in the car and thought for a moment. “I’d rather tell him when I tell my parents.”
“That’s fair” Urban nodded but wondered why Jack hadn’t already told them . He usually didn’t keep secrets this big from his parents, at the very least Maggie. He wondered if he was nervous that his mother wouldn’t approve but didn’t want to push him to answer in this moment.
“Hey Urb?”
“What’s up?”
“Thanks” Jack smiled as he set the binder down beside him, a sense of peace coming over him.

Echoes in Paradise Lost
Part 5/Chapter 5
Adam X reader x Eve
Reader is intersex and goes by they them. (All my fics are 18+ only.)
Tumblr media
Chapter 5 - Smutttt. 18+ only!
And wasn't being utterly selfish the most sweetest tasting reward. 
It was the mingling of lips that festered to join tongues.
Small graces of another's fingertips turning into the clawing of one's flesh.
Nails threatening to rip into one's skin to mark up possessive claims. 
Bodies are ever heating up, and you are between the two infernos that came from your Husband and Wife. 
Each capturing your lips the moment the other leaves them leaving you constantly having webs of saliva dripping down between them and you. Your sharp intake of breath and fluttering noises you let out were the most beautiful calls that ever fell on their ears.
Adam tongue was pushed as far back as it could go between your lips, a shuttering leaving him when you instinctively sucked on it, your tongue moving as messily and inexperienced as he was against his own. Eve lips had moved from yours and found a place moving down your sharp jawline and down your neck finding a place where it shot tingles up your neck. 
Both, Your husband and Wife were just as vocal as you were, and the noises they made loudly near your ears made your head spin as your body shuttered and warmed alongside their blazing ones. 
Eve lips surrounded that sensitive spot on your neck before she sucked on it lightly making you gasp, nearly choking on your Husband's tongue before she scraped her teeth against the blemishing skin caus8ng shivers to move through your shoulders and down your spine. 
Adam had pulled away from your lips as you nearly fell forwards, a loud pitch leaving your lips when your Wife so lovingly sank her teeth into your skin. Tears brimmed around your eyes as you panted, more webbed saliva falling from your and Adams lips 
“Eve.” He Warned, voice low, husky as he eyed your shared Wife pulling her lips and teeth away from your neck, intense gold eyes staring at the bruising that formed in her lips place. His words merely put a hold on Eve's  Ravishing prowl. 
He did not believe that you couldnt take it, No, he did as he knew that you were made perfectly for Eve and him. 
Though seeing your pupils blown wide, your chest heaving with each airy breath intake you made,Your  trembling hands holding the edges of your furrs closer to your chest with a look entirely lost and faded away, made him stop entirely. 
You did not fully understand what was going on. 
 
You were Pure, so truly and utterly Pure. 
They sprung upon you like ravenous wolves to a lamb.
so Eager to devour you, like a little mouse. 
But he would be no snake. 
He moved carefully wrapping his arms around your waist pulling you upon his thighs holding you close feeling how your body tenses before relaxing into his hold, your head finding its resting place between his collarbone and shoulder. 
"We must tarry.” He left no room for discussion, as he held you carefully feeling out you melted against him. Moving his head down, placing a soft kiss against the top of your head as He waited, waited for you to come back to them. Eve seemed to understand as she moved closer, behind you, her knees sliding under your bottom supporting you against sliding from Adams thighs as she softly ran her hands along your back, kneeling and rubbing the furred covered skin there softly.
"At the outset, it overwhelms; with time, it doth ease.” She softly whispers to you, and towards your shared husband as she meets his blazing gaze. 
"I cannot attest, yet 'tis a bond shared with our beloved spouse.” His words were soft and yet there was bitterness in them, as the hand that held your back softly dug into your skin. Betrayal of Eve's infidelity still sharp in his mind, but he was willing to forgive much for your sake than his own, But forgiving takes a toll and He couldn't pretend that everything was perfect between Him and his supposedly ever loving wife. 
Time could only heal such a wound to their shared bond. 
And as his eyes moved to you,watching as your quick breathing started to slow and the lost look on your face became found once again, he wanted you to choose him as much and he would eagerly choose you. 
He would not allow his mistakes to be made thrice. 
“If they shall have me.” He softly whispered as he held his face into your hair, his eyes closing, And he looked content. If this was all of your love he was given to have he would accept it gratefully.
Eve's honey eyes softened sadly as she took it in, She now knows what pain she had inflicted onto Adam, what she had thought was a self freeing act lured by the charms and trickery kindness of those she thought could be trusted of her well-being,had only been one twisted with Lies and pain. An act of wrongs that Adam had not spoken to You of, to spare you of knowledge of such pain, She was grateful.  
But even now as she watches how tenderly he was with you,  not once demanding for more even if she knows how much we want to take more, He doesn't, He doesnt order for control over you not like how the snakes had told her lies off… 
She had been so easily lured to think so little of him, when he was still learning just like you and her were, and She had now felt robbed of experiencing the very firsts with him and you. 
You had shifted softly against him, turning your back ever so slightly for one of you e/c eyes to glance at her before soaring a glance to Adams' opened ones. Your hand softly moved under Adam's chin pushing it away from your face and He followed without complaint. You turned in his grasp reaching your other hand out for the soft graces of your touch to find under her own chin before guiding her face closer and above your own making her sit up more on her knees as she leaned. 
Honey gold meeting scorching gold.
inexperienced lips meeting experienced lips. 
You had conjoined them. 
Adams lips were quite soft against her flushed ones, Eve observed as she stared into his intense eyes that focused on her own. He was hesitant as if second guessing himself. Unsure and at a loss of his usual strong confidence, which he had shown so strongly with you. Eve felt a throb of pain in her heart knowing she had only aided towards the reasoning of why…Dhe had been the one to close their eyes first, tilting her head as she moved her lips against his hesitant unmoving ones, She had prepared to be pushed away and she would accept it as a fair punishment. 
But feeling his lips start to move against her own felt like devine ordainment. 
Tears burned in her unopened eyes as she felt a shift in movements before one of Adams' large hands found a place on the small of her back, pulling her closer towards him. Her knees slightly dragged into the Gardens soil before her legs being split apart for his thigh to slide under her, the warm brush of skin she felt as one of her legs moved against one of yours that was between Adam's thighs as he held you both close to him and upon one thigh each to rest upon. 
Their shared kiss only grew more intently as Adam softly licked the bottom of her lip, politely seeking permission not bothering to push if she wanted to refuse as he did not hold his tongue at her lips nor force her lips apart,with moving her hands to rest upon one side of his chest she parted her lips allowing her husband to do so. She moaned, feeling him push his tongue carefully against hers, slowly entangling against her own before he parted away from her nearly too soon. His scorching eyes met her soft honey and now watering ones once again.
Her tears fell silently as she saw the soft look of affection he had always held for her in his eyes, once again allowing her to see his heart extended, even if she had hurt it. 
His lips found places against both of her cheeks kissing away salty tears before he turned his head to look upon you.  Eve moving her own to see your head moved more further onto his shoulder, e/c eye looking at them both with unbreakable adoration and love, it had caused her to smile. 
"I yearn to behold thee, if thou grantest, if thou permitest our union.” Adam spoke up softly, making your eyes focus on him as he asked for him, for them, your wife and husband to see you.  Eve watched as your fingers had tightened around the furrs that covered you, how you took in a shuddering breath as your eyes closed tightly. Thinking upon your shared husband's words.
"Only if thou art at ease to reveal thyself unto us.” Adam had urgently assured, softly rubbing your furred covered back to provide you comfort and show that you were safe. 
Eve moved a hand to your shoulder wishing to provide you comfort as well, aiding your shared husband's words.
"Thou art not obliged; we shall never press thee into discomfort, dearest.” She promised, as she looked into Adam's swearing eyes that never left focus on your face even as you moved your head away from his shoulder to sit up straighter on his thigh like her. Your eyes flutter open to stare at him. gently and softly nodded your head, your hands moving to unfasten the bear claw she had sewed onto the furrs when she had first made it, allowing the furrs to fall from your shoulders.
“Thou may.” Your voice was soft and yet so strong at the same time as the furred cloak fell behind you, revealing the swell of your breasts, like hers. The narrowing of the waist much like Adams, while not showing the sharpness of defined muscle of his, your body had a softer approach before the slight curves of your hips that dipped back inwards to your thighs which spread apart on one of Adams. 
Both Adam and Eve's eyes ran over your body in heated hungry gazes.
Taking in at the true perfection of their shared spouse. 
"Wouldst thou accept us?” Both heads breathlessly spoke out in a rush as their gazes found way back to your extravagant e/c eyes. You shivered at their shared words as you looked into the soft honey dew golden eyes and the ever melting scorching gold ones. 
The way they looked upon you seemed like no other expression they had possessed before. 
And it seemed to excite you, as your lower half of your body was eager to show your wife and husband the shared feelings their own two  showed as your face heated up at the new feeling of tingling that tightened in your lower abdomen as blood flushed into your face and your two lower places. 
“Yes.” You wheezed your air feeling so tightly trapped in your chest as the swell of your heart seemed almost painful. 
Gentle hands found your shoulders softly leading you backwards, sliding down from Adam's thigh causing a jolt of something wonderful shoot up your spine as your back found softness placed above the garden's grass and soil. Your eyes left the bright golds of your beloved eyes to the hundreds to millions of stars that gleamed brightly in the heavens skies. 
There was the hushed whispers of your wife that was pushed into your husband's ear before you felt his large hands find places under on the underside of your thighs ever so softly spreading them apart and wide exposing the woman part of you open against the chill of the gardens perfect air, open for his scorching eyes to blaze upon. 
You only felt nervousness and embarrassment for only a second before you felt a warm breath of air against the moist lips of your pure cunt and then the warm wet swipe of Adams tongue. Fully wide and pressed flush flat against your folds, gliding from your cunts opening and upwards towards the top, the tip hitting a spot that shot tingles up your spine and inner stomach making you let out a sharp gasp as your toes curled. 
Hands unsurely grabbing at the crumbled up furrs below you as you felt him continue to glide his tongue repeatedly against you, slowly, experimenting with your body and your reactions. 
But by the gods did you forget how fast of a learner Adam could be. 
Within a few gentle swipes and prodding with his tongue he had learned what made you sing the most prettiest sounds of them all, what would have you gasping and what shot waves of pleasure down to his own burning arousal would have you whimpering his name between clenched teeth and curled toes. 
He gripped the underside of your thighs more tightly when he felt them tremble and try closing shut, when he twirled the tip of his tongue at a little bump at the top of your dripping cunt. Focusing on it as you gasped, putting his name making him groan against it, feeling out your body would excitedly try to jump away and how you let out a high pitched shrill. He enclosed his lips around that little bump not knowing what it was, only knowing it brought out the most fantastical noises from you and he softly sucked on it. 
Eve watched in fascination that out far your back could arch, a withering pitched moan leaving your flushed lips as your nipples started to harden from the chill gardens air. At how Adams fingers dug into the fatty flesh of your thighs as he made you make such noises. His eyes shut close and the lower half of his face buried deeply into your cunt. 
She could hear the squelching noises that came from his mouth as he devoured you devotedly. She didn't think he was even breathing as he moved his hands from your thighs to wrap his arms completely around them from the underthigh to the top pulling you even closer to him, trapping you tightly to him. Whatever he was doing had you opening your mouth, not a noise came but your eyes seeming to roll under your closed eyelids and your back arching more than before, her attention moving back to your legs where your once weeping dick was suddenly spraying up against your lower abdomen right as she heard a noise leaving Adam as he moved away from your legs in surprise, your juices running down his face. A dazed drunken look on his face as his blown wide pupils stared at your soaking cunt in awestruck as it dripped onto the crumbled up furrs before your ass. 
She licked her suddenly dry lips before moving to Adam whispering in his ear soft praises before telling him what to do, before she moved to you softly taking on your hands and stroking your hair until you came back. A glance back at Adam proved he had listened, as he moved his hands carefully on your thighs, massaging them and slowly moving your legs one at a time out to stretch them, like tongue licking his lip clean of your juices hazily. 
She moved her attention back on your beautiful and handsome face watching the dazed cloudy expression on it softly come back to alertness. 
"What follows shall inflict but fleeting pain upon thee, ere thou art enveloped in wondrous greatness.” She told you, taking her experience from laying with another to better aid you, prepare you better than she was given. She could only take what she had learned in her infidelity as Knowledge for her to teach Adam and You to be far much better, sweeter and attentive to each other. 
“Pain? I'll bring harm?” Adam's voice captured Eve's attention as she looked back to see how her shared husband had physically recoiled,She could see it before ever needing to question it, His mind brought back from where he had pushed you causing you to get hurt. A distance grew in his eyes before they landed on her before shaking his head.
"I shall not inflict harm upon them... nevermore…” And she knew he swore it. 
Eve felt a smile form on her lips as she reached, placing a hand on his arm.
“'Tis not akin to pain afore, 'tis a unique sensation, a sweet ache that transforms into true wonder. Fear not, dearest husband, I shalt not cause thee harm.” She assured him strongly, watching how relief moved through his eyes even if there was some uncertainty, she moved her head to face you once more, seeing that you were staring at them so trustingly and lovingly.
“"Dost thou comprehend,  Y/n?” She softly asks you, making you look at her with such living eyes that made her heart race. 
“Yes.” You whispered with a slight nod, such a trusting look in your eyes, truly believing her words to be true made her heart melt as she leaned down hovering above you, her hair curtaining around your lovely face before pressing a gentle kiss upon your lips.
“"Thou shalt excel greatly.” she whispers adoringly when she pulls away from the gentle kiss before sitting up to gently instruct Adam, Guiding him between your open thighs where his hands softly hold the undersides of them as he holds you open. She helped him align with you before coating her fingers in your dripping juices and stroking them along Adams weeping dick, a sharp hiss leaving him then a delicious sounding moan from him as he bucked his hips forward to her touches. 
"Gently, my dearest husband.” She gently reminded him before guiding his tip towards your soaking cunts entrance. 
So many thoughts filled her head as she swallowed thickly. 
She wanted to watch him take you. 
Watch you take him so perfectly as she knew you would. 
She wanted to watch your face, how it will contort with emotions. 
Her own cunt throbbing between her burning thighs as her eyes greedily took in your standing erection. 
She should let You and Adam have this moment together 
She could hear how your breath hitched, as well did Adams as he swallowed thickly.
But she was selfish. 
She moved a hand against Adam's chest stopping him from moving, his eyes meeting hers, a brow rising in his confusion, before watching her move to straddle over your hips, a look of understanding filling him as she used his arms to steady herself. 
She wanted to share in taking you.
Once she was settled hovering her weeping cunt above the tip of your own dick she looked up at Adam before nodding. 
Slowly she sank herself onto you, a gasp leaving her before turning into a soft groan feeling her cunt being forced apart and split around your dick. She heard how you made a pitiful noise which made her walls twitch around you as she sunk down, her eyes focusing on your spreaded cunt, watching how you so gorgeous sucked in inch by inch of Adams dick, a groan leaving him as he pushed in. A small cry leaving you had her pushing on Adams arms making him stop moving, allowing you the time to deal with the pain of being split open by your shared husband. 
You were panting, your vision spinning as you closed your eyes, galaxies spotted behind your eyelids as you gasped out for air. 
So much was happening at once and it caused you to shudder harshly.
The squeezing of your wife, Eve's needy cunt around you.
The twitching of your Husbands, Adams aching dick inside you. 
it was too much, and yet it was not enough yet. 
You let out the most embarrassing whine as you shimmed your ass towards your husband, arching your hips into your wife, listening to the guttural whine and moan they let out. 
You couldn't form words to beg them, but you mindly prayed they'd hear your thoughts. 
And may the heavens ever be bless because it seemed they did as you felt Adam move slowly thrusting into you, the slow drag of his dick out to the tip of it causing you to whine like some cat in heat before he plunged it back into your quivering walls making you keen as you desperately rutted your hips upwards into your Wifes sopping wet warm cunt as she sunken down harshly against your  before pushing herself back up with her thighs a shuttering gasp leaving it. 
The first few minutes were slow, sloppy, uninformed and so utterly desperate.  Each one of you moving along way too overwhelmed with the feel of each other to think clearly. 
All disorganized and it was nothing but the start all over again.
Rushed graces of another's fingertips burning into the clawing of one's flesh.
Nails now promising to rip into one's skin intent on leaving behind possessive claims.
Bodies are ever heating up, and you underneath the two infernos that came from your  beloved Husband and dearest wife.
Adam had been the one to take control, As he laid Eve back onto your chest and leaned over her and you he buried himself deeply into your quivering cunt. His Hands left your thighs to dig into Eve's hips as he moved her up and down you as you rolled your hips not only into him but into her. 
One of your hands had found a place right above his on her hip, the other clinging to the soft grasses of the garden. 
Eve's hands went everywhere, from behind her to your neck, to Adam's shoulders and neck, To his arms, and back to you finding places in your hair. 
The area by the forbidden tree was filled with needy moans, guttural groans and high pitched whimpers and wails of pleasure, oversensitivity and bliss. 
You were the first to cum all over again, easily coming undone by the nonstop milking of your wifes greedy cunt and the mind numbing harsh thrusts of Your husbands hips where his dick gilded across something that sparked the fire to set ablaze the kindle of your lower stomach and his pelvis grazing against your throbbing clit. You had first been nothing but a whimpering mess, harshly inhaling and whimpering out, the hand gripping the grass too tightly was soon captured by Adams larger one which had Eves hand entangled below it, allowing her hand to be sandwiched between yours and his as his fingers curled around both of your wifes and yours. 
Your body twitched and bucked wildly as you squirted over Adams dick and shot a broken stream of cum into Eve's cunt. 
It felt so good.
It felt so terrible. 
it stung as it tingled your every sense. 
You sobbed as your vision left you leaving you trembling, being completely wind undone, Your wife came after you, a loud moan leaving her as her back lifted from your lower abdomen and lower chest, her shoulders digging into your ribs as she became a mess between you and Adam. 
Adam had only.lasted a mere second after your shared wife. His hips jerking and a heavy tremble came from.him as he sunk deeply into your own greedy cunt, filling it with his hot sticky cum in a stream. 
The clearance of the forbidden tree was filled with nothing but the pants of three lovers that came undone from being one.
Sweat dripped from your bodies as Adam and Eve moved away and off of you allowing air to fully hit your exhausted lungs. 
It seems tonight you have taken a new role as Eve Collapsed on the left side of you before pulling herself into you, her laying on your chest. And Adam falls to the right side of you, burying his face into your shoulder and chest, an arm settling on your chest. 
the three of your labor breaths slowly melting down as eyes grew far too heavy to keep open, sleep coming for you all, and threatening so.
“I love thou both, my Echo, my sun.” Adam mumbled into your skin, causing your heart to swell even when you were so tired.
“As do I, To you Dearest spouse, Beloved husband.” Eve mumbled back, sleep taking her from you. 
You felt as if you were floating, a sense of endless glee filling you as you felt entirely surrounded by Adam and Eves love for each other and for you. 
Filling so utterly fulfilled. 
“I love you with my final breaths.”  You promised them both devotedly.

L’manberg, Nationalism, and c!Dream
Okay, I know it’s been done to death, but I’ve been reading Benedict Anderson’s Imagined Communities for a class which talks about nationalism as an imagined community, so nationalism has been on my mind. And, of course, my mind’s natural progression was to start thinking about L’manberg and nationalism again. So, without further ado, here’s my post on L’manberg, Nationalism, and how that played a role in c!Dream’s story arc. 
(Also, I haven’t written an essay in ages, and I haven’t done analysis in ages, so please cut me some slack lol)
It’s under the cut because this is a very, very long post (3.2k words long, in fact). (you can also read it on google docs if you'd prefer).
What is Nationalism?
To start this all, we need to take a moment to step away from Minecraft roleplay to actually talk about nationalism itself. Since I know most of you are here to hear about the Minecraft roleplay aspect, I’ll try to keep it as brief as possible, but it is very important for context. I’ll bold (and color) the main points if you just want to read those before skipping down to the L’manberg section, but you’re more than welcome to read all of this. 
To understand nationalism, you need to understand a bit about how it came to be, which requires a bit of knowledge about the transition from pre-modern to modern times. In general, this transition is often thought to have occurred in the mid-18th century during the Age of Enlightenment and during the time when a lot of revolutions were taking place, such as the American Revolution and the French Revolution. But it’s important to note that there isn’t really such a clear cut line of when this transition from pre-modern to modern times happened, and, in many ways, this change is still occurring to this day.
The most important aspect of this change to think about in the context of this post is in terms of religion, though I will also briefly talk about the shift from dynastic rule to democracy. I want to start off by briefly talking about this because, in many ways, nationalism has taken on the role that religion held in pre-modern times. (Side note: this isn’t to say nationalism replaced religion, but the widespread role of religion in people’s lives today is different than it was in, say, the 14th century). 
In pre-modern times, religion gave people a sense of belonging, and this idea of belonging is something I’ll come back to, but, for now, you should know that nationalism gives a similar sense of belonging. I won’t get into too much detail about why Anderson specifically says this is a sense of belonging to an imagined community, but it basically comes down to the fact that you’ll never know everyone in your community (whether that be religious or national), but you still feel a sense of belonging to the collective.
“Okay, Stella, very interesting, but you still haven’t defined nationalism.” Alright, alright, I’ll define nationalism, which requires me to define a nation. In Anderson’s words, from page 6 of Imagined Communities, “it is an imagined political community—and imagined as both inherently limited and sovereign.” I want you to take a note specifically of it being inherently limited and file that away for later. 
I said I was going to briefly discuss the shift from dynastic rule to democracy, so I’ll do that now. So, a couple things about these dynastic rules with centralized power: firstly, it was believed that the monarchs had some sort of divine right to rule from God (see how this ties into religion?), and, secondly, a lot of borders were less defined the further you got from the centralized powers. Obviously, with the shift from pre-modern to modern times, both of these things changed, bringing the idea of giving power to the people, and also bringing more concrete borders.
Anyway, moving on. Nations are imagined as inherently limited because no one imagines one nation as encompassing all of humanity. Yes, in modern times borders are very concrete and defined, but it goes beyond that—in a person’s mind, nations are limited because there are always people who do not belong to the nation. It’s not often thought about, but with a sense of belonging comes exclusion. The entire concept of belonging comes from the idea of being with people who are similar to you, and this implies the existence of people who are so dissimilar that you don’t belong with them, and, thus, they don’t belong with you. It can easily become a double edged sword, I think; there is comfort in belonging to a collective, but it can be all too easy to fall into an “us vs them” mentality, which is going to be an important point moving forward.
So, how does this all relate to a Minecraft Roleplay?
L’manberg and Nationalism
Onto the fun stuff! Minecraft Roleplay! Obviously, L’manberg is a nation, so I’m sure you can already see how nationalism is going to play a role, but let’s get into it. First, though, I’d like to give a minor disclaimer that not everything is going to fit perfectly simply on account of the fact that the DSMP takes place in a very sparsely inhabited world, and, honestly, that alone makes governmental structures of any kind really interesting to look at, but I digress since it’s not the point of this post. (It also means that nationalism as talked about in this post isn’t really an imagined community like Anderson claims it is. From a meta standpoint, you could say this sense of nationalism actually leaked into the audience itself, but in the story it’s not really an imagined community).
The DSMP starts out as a world with no borders and no governmental structures of any kind—it starts with no nations. Rather, the DSMP in itself is a cohesive community to which everyone belongs. It’s not a community like nationalism, nor is it a community like religion, nor is it an imagined community in any way. As previously stated, the DSMP is a sparsely populated world, and, at least at the start, everyone knows each other or knows of each other as an individual. This sense of belonging is more akin to a group of friends than anything else, which I think makes the introduction of nationalism especially interesting. 
c!Wilbur. What a guy, am I right? He shows up to the server, and he brings with him capitalism and the idea of monopolizing resources—there’s an interesting post to be made about that, I’m sure, but not the point of this one—and, most importantly, he brings with him the concept of a nation. He’s putting up borders, putting up walls, and essentially dividing a place that used to be united, citing L’manberg as an independent country, which is does not include everyone in the server (it’s limited), and which is separate from the DSMP and essentially is its “own server” (it’s sovereign). Sound familiar? Yeah, it’s ✨nationalism✨
I’ve seen posts talking about the fact that L’manberg was specifically satirizing nationalism, and though, despite my efforts, I couldn’t find these posts (if anyone has them please send them to me! I’d love to re-read them and link them in this post), I do think it’s true. I think there’s a lot to be said about L’manberg from a narrative and meta standpoint, and I think there’s a lot to be said about the fact that c!Wilbur was always written as a villain in the story (and not just during the Pogtopia arc, despite popular belief), but I can’t get into it all in this post. So, what I do want to do is come back to the concept of belonging and how that always comes with exclusion, and I want to talk about the “us vs them” mentality.
The reason I say L’manberg is satirizing nationalism is because it takes these facets of nationalism to the extreme. It’s not just a place made to give people a sense of belonging which in turn creates exclusion; L’manberg is a xenophobic nation, and I would go as far to say that its founding was based more on exclusion than inclusion. That is to say, the exclusive aspect was not just an unfortunate yet inevitable side effect of creating a nation. From the very start, L’manberg was founded on the exclusion of non-Europeons, and, more specifically, the exclusion of Americans. Sapnap actually originally wanted to join, but he was denied because he’s American. L’manberg wasn’t ever some place accepting of anyone who came to it, and it wasn’t a place to be free from tyranny, but let’s get into the idea of L’manberg going against tyranny. 
The “us vs them” mentality is already extremely dangerous and something to be wary of, and it’s something I think we should constantly be checking ourselves on, but L’manberg takes that to a further extreme. I don’t want you to think this point is completely separate from the point I made before, because they do very much connect to each other and are intertwined. Nations are limited. This means there will always be people who don’t belong to any given nation. Obviously, in this case, members of the greater DSMP do not belong to L’manberg. (I think it’s also helpful to remember that c!Wilbur specifically didn’t allow dual-citizenship; c!Tubbo initially wanted to be a citizen of both the greater DSMP and L’manberg, but that wasn’t allowed, so in the end he became a citizen of only L’manberg).
But, this wasn’t just a case of the greater DSMP being separate from L’manberg. No, they were tyrants that L’manberg was escaping from. c!Dream was a tyrant that L’manberg was fighting against. It’s taking the “us vs them” mentality to an extreme of “we are the righteous good guys fighting against oppression and tyranny, and they are the tyrants trying to oppress us.” It sure sounds like a noble cause—and you can always count on c!Wilbur to spout pretty words that convince people to play on his terms—but is that really the case? In a place that previously had no nations and no real defined hierarchy of power, how could tyranny exist? As I said before, the DSMP previously was more like a group of friends living in a commune than anything else, and tyranny doesn’t really seem applicable in that context, does it? This is c!Wilbur spinning a narrative that is going to continue to affect the SMP all the way to the very end, and it’s also what places c!Dream and c!Tommy on opposite sides from the very beginning, by establishing that extreme “us vs them” mentality.
(Oh, it should also be noted that the “us vs them” mentality very often leads to the dehumanization of the other side, so keep that in mind for when we get to c!Dream). 
(Also there’s something to be said about the L’manberg revolution being heavily based on Hamilton, which is based on the American Revolution, which was a very key part of the transition from pre-modern to modern times and how that relates to nationalism, but this post is already getting long enough).
So, yeah, L’manberg was satirizing nationalism. And, ultimately, L’manberg was never good for the server as a whole.
c!Dream and Nationalism, even in the wake of L’manberg
Ough. c!Dream… :( oh he really did walk the path laid out for him by c!Wilbur to the very end, didn’t he?
Listen, everything c!Dream does on the server is ultimately tied back to the founding of L’manberg, and, in turn, to the introduction of nationalism to the server. One of c!Dream’s primary goals is unity (or, specifically, the unity and simplicity of the server from pre-L’manberg times), and this is antithetical to nationalism, or, at least, to the extreme form of nationalism that L’manberg brought. Because nationalism brought division, and division brought conflict, and conflict brought death (specifically canon deaths). And, well, we all know how much death is a motivator for c!Dream.
(Also, there is something to be said about the start of nationalism and nations on the server not being framed as a good thing in the narrative, how it was satirizing and criticizing the concept of nationalism, and there’s something to be said about how the narrative agrees with the group of anarchists—the Syndicate—who push against the idea of nations. But, well, that’s also a post for another day). 
Now, obviously, unity is not c!Dream’s only motivation—actually, I think we’d all agree that the thing that motivated c!Dream the most was fear. But, a lot of this fear does tie back to L’manberg and the narrative built by c!Wilbur. So, let’s for a moment take a look at how this narrative affected other people’s perceptions of c!Dream.
Remember how I said the “us vs them” mentality often leads to dehumanization? Well, well, well. Listen, this is dreblr. The dehumanization of c!Dream has been talked about to death, but that’s because it’s always relevant to his character!! And I’m here to say that this dehumanization started all the way back during the L’manberg revolution when c!Wilbur labeled c!Dream a tyrant. Obviously the dehumanization of c!Dream is incredibly apparent with the revive book and in Pandora’s Vault, but this is not a post about the box, unfortunately (I’m sorry—I know we all love the box here 💔).
c!Dream’s dehumanization started the moment he was labeled as a tyrant and the moment he was labeled as the “enemy.” He became the “them” in the “us vs them” mentality that was adopted by L’manberg. He’s the oppressor they need to defeat, and he’s the monster that needs to be slain. And this is important because this never went away. Even after L’manberg was gone, the concept of nations and the concept of “us vs them,” never went away! c!Dream was still the enemy that needed to be killed! And, over the course of time when L’manberg was still around, c!Dream lost pretty much everyone. Everyone was turning against him, people were using attachments against him, and people wanted to kill him (New L’manberg was planning to execute him under the false pretense of a peaceful celebration!). And, yes, he did plenty of bad things during this time (namely exile), but I think we should also remember that most people did not know about what happened during exile at this time. They wanted to kill him because he was powerful and dangerous, and he wasn’t with them so he was against them because that’s the narrative L’manberg created—if they’re not with us, they’re against us.
Everyone was against him, and he was spiraling (pushed further by the existence of the revive book) to the point that he commissioned the build of a giant, obsidian, inescapable prison and he locked himself in there with the hope that it would protect him and save his life. (☹️) Obviously that didn’t work like he’d hoped, but… well… 
As I said before: none of this stuff went away even after L’manberg was gone. The concept of nationalism didn’t magically disappear from the server just because L’manberg was destroyed. Nations kept popping up. The server kept splitting itself into more pieces and factions, and it all became so convoluted. I think it’s important to remember the population of the SMP—they don’t really have enough people to make functioning governments, yet they keep trying to make nations, anyway. They’re following L’manberg’s footsteps. They’re chasing this concept of nationalism.
Obviously this affected everyone’s lives, but it really did ruin c!Dream’s life. The introduction of nationalism is what causes c!Dream’s life to essentially start falling apart. I don’t want to rehash stuff that’s already been said a lot in dreblr, so there’s a lot about c!Dream’s motivations and story that I’m not including, but I want to bring our attention to a certain line c!Dream said in the finale streams: “Why can’t things be simple again?”
Because things were simple before all this! It was a group of friends making a home!! They built the community center because the server was meant to be a cohesive community of friends. There was never a need for nations or governments! It was just a group of friends making a home together! And then it all became so convoluted, and there were nations when there didn’t need to be any, and people were being divided into sides and being divided into “us” and “them,” and it was so irrevocably different from what the server started as. And I don’t think c!Dream ever really figured out how to accept that it was irrevocable :( and even he himself was blindsided by the story crafted by L’manberg and by c!Wilbur, to the point that he didn’t even fully understand his own goals! Because he (and everyone else) got so used to nationalism on the server and factions and conflicts and “us” vs “them,” that he didn’t even realize he just wanted things to go back to how they were :( oughhhh c!dreamie :((
Sorry to devolve into emotions at the end of this, but it’s not an academic paper, so I think you should cut me some slack. It’s just :( “I don’t ever want to be alone” because with nationalism comes exclusion and it eventually brought c!Dream to a point where he was so, so alone and :( He makes me so sad </3
Anyway, the reason the DSMP didn’t end with c!Dream dead at c!Tommy’s hands is because that was never the point of the story—that was the narrative L’manberg was trying to spin, but that was never what the story was actually about. It took up until the very end for them to break free from the story of L’manberg.
(And, it’s been mentioned many times before, but there’s a reason this was never able to happen until c!Wilbur was removed from the narrative. c!Dream and c!Wilbur and c!Tommy are absolutely crucial in each other’s character arcs, and you can’t really understand any of the duo relationships without considering the third (says the person guilty of writing c!Dreambur fanworks without always thinking about c!Tommy lmao, but hey at least it’s not analysis, right?) but that’s also a post for another day).
I never really know how to conclude things. I’m kind of worried I’m forgetting stuff, and I apologize if I did forget stuff, but I’ve been working on this for, like, 4 and a half hours and am getting tired lmao. But my main points are that L’manberg was satirizing and criticizing nationalism, that the concept of nationalism stuck with the SMP until the very end, and that the concept of nationalism from the beginning set up c!Dream to be the villain (and, really, this is largely in part because L’manberg from the beginning set up c!Dream to be a villain, and I don’t think you can feasibly separate L’manberg from nationalism). Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk! Feel free to ask questions and discuss further, and I will do my best to respond lol.

Leon’s plans were far from what was currently happening, The poor guy was just trying to go on a tour around San Francisco but instead he was stuck in alcatraz fighting off the undead becoming infected & even uninfected and when he was told to grab the antidote to stop all of this mess he ran into you which was an even bigger pain in his ass.
You see, when you were In the technological area of the prison so was Leon & when you were standing across from him in the room his heart was already preparing to jump out of his chest, You two had multiple encounters on past missions that it even had a small fling between you guys but you couldn’t let him too close as you felt the fear of being heartbroken by the man who was your first love, first fuck & first everything so you cut ties with Leon before things got too ‘serious’ and clearly there was still that little spark between you both as you felt a small twang in your chest making direct eye contact with his blue eyes.
You couldn’t handle the tension or distraction that was stopping you from getting what you needed for Umbrella since they wanted to test this virus on multiple people like experiment subjects, the silence was loud & all the two of you heard were technical wires sparking and faint noises from some freakish monster fighting Jill so you cut the memories short & finally spoke up “You done reminiscing on the past yet” “As done as you are, what the hell are you doing here?” Your eyebrow perked up a bit as he held the gun attached to the belt of his jeans “I think you already know why i’m here Leon so let’s make those easy and start handing me the goddamn antidote” “Not happening doll, You know what happened last time you pulled one of these stunts.” You scoffed before stretching your arms “Fine you want to make this difficult and hurt your fragile ego we can play that game.”
Immediately as you started sprinting towards Leon he picked you up and practically body slammed you onto the floor but that still didn’t stop you from anything, you tugged on his hair and lifted both your legs and quickly wrapping them around his head putting his face in an area he was VERY familiar with & very much so missed but that’s for a later discussion, You flipped him over to where you were not on top and quickly got up but much to your demise he didn’t give up, he stood up and tried slamming you against a wall but you acted fast and held on multiple wires hanging from the ceiling and started swinging back & forth enough that you kicked him in the face “Son of a bitch!” You Snickered at his pain as he landed on a technical board while you jumped onto the ground and grabbed a random pole about to hit him with it but he held up his wrists against the pole causing it to bend “Why do you choose to make my life more- fuck!- more difficult than it already is sweetheart!”
You glared at him as he used one of his pet-names for you as a verbal weapon, he knew exactly what he did with that name and he knew it would hurt you in a place of your heart that you locked up & shoved away, “why do you choose to get in the way of MY job leon?” He smirked as he pushed you back as you attempted to hit him one more time “Because you’re so in love with me beautiful” You hated the way he spoke to you with sarcasm sometimes but you knew it was true, You were unexceptionally in love with him despite your split up & you hated it with your entire soul, “Just give up the act sweetheart you know your not gonna get what you want.” He warned as you kept trying to get swings at him but would fail miserably because of his dodges that he learned from training many years ago
After 30 more minutes of endless fighting you eventually gave up, both of you sat across from each other in two separate corners breathing heavily & sweat running down your guys’ face eventually leon broke the silence with a heavy sigh “Why do you do this to me Angel? You know how much you make my heart hurt when I see you so why do you do it?” You refused to acknowledge what he was saying to you so eventually he got annoyed and crawled his way towards you & almost placed a hand on your knee but you quickly pressed your high heel boot against his forehead & lightly pushed him back to where he sat on his stomach sighing “Sweetheart why did you leave? was it something I did back then I just don’t get it? What did I do?” You became irritated with his nagging for answers so eventually you fessed up. “It wasn’t You Leon. I think you know that by now. I was scared of you breaking my heart at some point so I prevented it from happening by dumping you before you could do it to me.”
Leon looked at you with sympathetic eyes while sitting up and moved your leg out of the way to cup your face into his hands while he hummed softly “You know that I would have never left you right? No matter how fucked up your little mind is I find it extremely fucking attractive to the point where I even bought you an engagement ring doll.” You rolled your eyes trying to move your head out of his grasp but he didn’t budge, “Yeah right, I highly doubt tha-“ “It’s true sweetness, I even have it in my wallet to this day after all of those years.” You watched him move one of his hands off of your face and digging into the pocket of his pants and pulling out a wallet he still somehow had on him & fishing out a ting that was slowly starting to show off how old it was getting & placed it into the palm of your hand “You know I never lie Doll face.”
You felt your breath hitch slightly but you gave the ring back to him and just around that time a guy as buff as leon but with short brown hair busted through the doors “Goddamnit Leon where the fuck have you been! And who the hell are you?!” You glared as Leon stood up & pulled you up along with him “Don’t worry about it Chris, let’s go before that weird fucking monster eats up rebecca.” Rebecca? Who the fuck is Rebecca? You didn’t have time to blurt out this question since Leon was dragging you along, Once your eyes settled on that big creature that was swinging it’s weird large fucking tentacles at what seemed to be Jill & Claire you felt pure fear run through your veins
“Rebecca!” You snapped your head as you heard Leon shout out this woman’s name once again but then you saw her run towards Leon with a box of what seemed to be the antidotes of the virus and even samples of said virus. You watched as she hugged around him in relief while blood ran down her face and it made the blood inside of your own body start boiling that you snatched the box she held & quickly held out your gun at Leon, Chris & Rebecca “we’re going to kill whatever the fuck that thing is back there & we’re all going to go our merry separate ways and i’m going to be taking this” “Who the hell do you think you ar-“ you quickly aimed back at Rebecca with an anger expression plastered on your face in which Cho Leon took note of “Watch it Bill Nye I will easily shoot whatever is in that fucking large cranium of yours.” Chris glared you down but you didn’t care, you put your gun away set the box down and started loading up some sort of large machine gun that could possibly take down whatever creature you saw Jill & Claire fight with, Chris was busy making sure Rebecca wasn’t wounded or infected while Leon practically hovered over you trying to help but you would shove him away “What the hell was that about huh? You’re not taking shit from us got it?”
You kept ignoring him, just as you got to make the machinery work the creature had slammed of its tentacles on the area you & leon were currently located causing you to fall down & hang onto a piece of metal while Leon was slammed against a wall “SOMEBODY FUCKING HELP ME?” You saw Leon quickly spring up and run directly towards you while Chris got ahold of a large rocket launcher & continuously blow up the creature wreaking havoc on everybody, You hear Claire shout something out towards Jill & Rebecca run towards You & Leon to help him grab you as he was slowly sliding off of the platform, Leon quickly grabbed onto your hand dragging you back up causing him & Rebecca To fall backwards while you rolled onto the side as you groaned loudly after just now realizing there was a deep gash in your side & due to you quickly loosing blood you passed out.
Eventually you woke up but it was outside of the prison on the ground patched up in stitches & gauze wrapped around the stitched up gash, You sit up quickly and wince causing Leon to move away from his group & kneel towards you “Good-morning sunshine, Thought I lost you for a second.” He chuckled out lightly while your eyebrows furrowed “Is it dead?? What are we doing out he-“ “it’s more than dead don’t worry.” Jill reassured with a smile on her dirtied face “We haven’t seen you in a while, It’s good to finally see you.” Claire spoke out walking towards you “Thanks..It’s nice seeing you guy’s too..” Leon cleared his throat indicating he wanted to speak with you so Claire & Jill walked off towards chris & Rebecca ass he grabbed ahold of your hands “Sweetheart I think you know we will never be able to avoid each other so that’s why I’m going to ask- not even ask TELL you to Marry me, give us an actual chance & be with me. I’ll handle all of your Umbrella bullshit an-“
You smiled up at him and leaned up as much as you could to grab his face and kiss him “Fine. I’ll marry you.” He grinned and just as he was about to kiss you deeply Rebecca stepped towards you “Y/N right..? I’ve heard a lot about you & I just wanted to address that..Leon & I? Have nothing between us an-“ You smile reassuringly “It’s fine rebecca, Don’t worry about it.” Rebecca smiled in relief & congratulated the both of you & eventually a helicopter came around and picked you all up & brought you all to a facility.
2 years later since then Leon & You got Married & Even had a child recently! A sweet little girl who had the both of you wrapped around her finger. Life was doing great you would say, Until You had gotten a call from a very very old friend of yours Albert Wesker, Alerting you that your work is needed immediately for yet, another outbreak.

Bucky almost collapsed once his feet were on the ground. The compound was destroyed. It was obvious the missile hit the living quarters. There were injured people everywhere on the lawn and parking lot. It was a mess but he intended to go into that building and find you. Or he would if it wasn’t for Steve holding him back. 
“Let me go, I have to go in there. I have to find them.” He fought against his best friend’s hold. 
“Take a breath and look around you.” 
Bucky did just that. He looked around. There were hydra agents in handcuffs. Shield agents armed and standing guard. He then noticed Maria Hill making her way over.
“Buck-“
“Where are they? Were they hurt?” Bucky cuts her off. Impatient and desperate for some news, any news really.
“They aren’t here.”
“Where the hell are they?” 
“Charlotte saw this happen hours before it did. Y/N found me and we made a plan. Hydra was after the kids so she made plans to head to the tower. She said she’d wait for you there.” 
Bucky could breathe again. You were safe and so were the kids. He should have known you would have kept them safe, that his girl, his doll would have seen this coming. 
“You see they’re fine. Let’s go see them.” Steve pats him on the back. 
Tony is already working on the next steps with Bruce. The rest of the team is waiting for news.
“They should be at the tower.” Steve announced and the team relaxed a bit. “We’re going to head there now. Nat back us up, everyone else stay here and help where you can. Keep comms open and both teams will update each other as we go.” 
Everyone nods and start heading their separate ways. Bucky heads to the garage with Steve and Nat following behind. 
Soon three motorcycles roar to life. All three of them weaved through traffic with ease. The closer they got to the tower the easier Bucky could breathe again. But it wouldn’t be enough until he saw you and held you, all three of you in his arms. That need made him go faster and be a bit reckless. He didn’t care though. He was just around the corner and all of his worries would disappear once he could talk to you again. 
Tumblr media
Bucky practically drove the bike into the building. He left it on the sidewalk but he didn’t care. When he walked up to the main doors he ripped them open and almost pulled them off their hinges. An alarm blared as he stepped inside and scanned the room. Security guards scrambled to get the alarm to stop as one of them made their way to the trio. 
“Captain-“
“Is agent Y/L/N here? She should be here with two kids.” 
“Daddy!” Henry yelled from across the lobby. The people that had been caught inside the building when it went into lockdown all parted for him. “Daddy!” 
“Bubs.” Bucky choked out as Henry ran into his arms. 
He fell to the floor as he hugged his son. His kids were safe, because of you. Henry cried into his chest and Bucky soothed him the best he could as his own tears spilled. 
“Dada!” 
“Doll. C’mere.” Lottie soon joined the pile on the floor. 
Bucky didn’t care that others were watching as he kissed and hugged his children. His kids were safe and far away from hydra’s reach. Very little scared him but losing them and you terrified him. Above him Nat stood by, her eyes scanned the crowd looking for anyone that might be out of place and informing the team of what was going on. Steve stepped away with the head security guard to discuss something in a more private area. 
“Buck.” Steve called and nodded in the direction of an office. The same place the kids had come from.
With both kids clinging to him Bucky stood and followed Steve. The moment he stepped into the small office his world crumbled.
“Ed?” Bucky looked at your father. He had red rimmed eyes and a grief stricken look. “What are you doing here? Where’s Y/N?” 
Lottie straightened herself to look up at her dad. “Bad man take mama.” She whispers with a trembling pout. 
Just as quickly as he had gotten hope it was pulled right from under him like a rug. Steve takes Charlotte in his arms, Nat takes Henry. Ed steps closer to Bucky and places a hand on his shoulder. He shakes Bucky to get his attention and pulls him to sit at one of the chairs in the room before telling him everything you did. 
“How long ago was that?” 
“About four or five hours ago. She asked me to bring the kids here and that’s what I did.” 
Bucky gave him a nod but he was only half listening by this point. Lottie is back in his lap and she pulls and twists the straps on his uniform. When he looks around Steve and Nat are gone.
“They went to see if they could find anything.” Ed fills in.
“I’m sorry.” 
“What are you sorry for, boy?”
“She shouldn’t have had to sacrifice herself if I had been there.” Bucky says sadly.
Ed just shakes his head in disapproval. “You know my girl, she’s a fighter. If you’d have been there she would have gone with you just to make sure you were safe.” 
Bucky gives him a sad smile because he knows it’s true. You were the one who held this family together. He would be nowhere without you. 
“Dada?”
“Yeah doll?” He looks down at his girl.
“Want mama.” 
“Me too. We’ll bring her back soon.” Bucky holds her tighter as he makes a promise to himself and to you. He will find you and bring you back. No matter what it takes.
Tumblr media
It’s a nightmare, that’s the only explanation. Except your mother’s voice rings clearly in your head as you were dragged away and placed in a small cell. It wasn’t just small, it was tiny like a closet. So you breathe in through your nose, out through your mouth and your eyes closed to try and keep your composure. That way you can imagine you’re somewhere else. Like in bed with your three favorite people piled on top of you and trying to cuddle. Yes, that’s a nice thought while you pop your shoulder back into place. 
****
You zone in and out of consciousness as you try to sit as best as you can. The cell you’re in isn’t metal so you can’t break out of it. It doesn’t even have nails in it. Had they been ready for you? They must have been. 
Your thoughts go back to the woman you had called mother. If she was hydra, was the rest of your family hydra too? Had you handed your kids to another hydra agent? You shook your head to get rid of that thought. Your father wouldn’t betray you like that. He taught you what it meant to be a good person and to do the right thing. There’s no way he could be hydra. Right? It made you question every person in the family you came in contact with. Sadly knowing your mother was hydra, made perfect sense. What she said kept repeating in your head though. 
“I had lost all hope that I could turn you into what you were meant to be.” 
The door opens letting bright light into the dark space. You lift your hand to shield your eyes from it and rough, calloused, unforgiving hands pull you out. 
Tumblr media
“Anything?” Bucky stood from the couch he had been sitting on. 
Since showing up to the tower Pepper had arranged for the team to be set up in the apartments there. When everyone had finally come in from the compound they were exhausted. Nat was the last person back after having gone to track you down, or at least try. 
“Your SUV was blown up.” There was no need to sugar coat anything. She pulled out her phone to show him the pictures she took. “No sign of her, I’m sorry.”
Bucky hadn’t expected anything different. Charlotte had already told him your fate. He looked over at the kids wrapped up in each other’s arms as they slept. Afraid that if they let go the bad men would take them. Bucky sighed and gave a nod. 
“I’m gonna go put them to bed.” 
With a heavy heart Bucky stood and grabbed both Henry and Charlotte and headed toward the apartment Pepper had offered him. He set the kids in the master bedroom and covered them with their blankets. With a kiss to each of their foreheads he stepped back out to the living room to sit. Bucky wouldn’t be able to sleep knowing that you were somewhere out there. 
Ed places a glass on the table in front of Bucky and then fills it with whiskey. 
“What’s the plan?” 
“We’ll look for her until we find her, I’m not giving up. Not until I bring her home.” 
“And the kids?” Ed asks before finishing the last bit of whiskey in his glass. 
“I- I don’t know.” 
“Well it’s a good thing I’m retired. I also spoke to the twins and Luke and Molly. They’re willing to come in and help while you go out and look for her.”
“They’d do that?” 
“Of course. That’s their sister and those are their niece and nephew. Besides, I think having Olivia here would be a nice distraction for Lottie and Henry. And Tony said that until we get Y/N back and end this it would also be better if they stayed close by.”
Bucky nodded just as a blood curdling scream came from the master bedroom. He rushed in, gun in hand ready to stop whatever was making Charlotte react like that. 
“Daddy, she’s seeing something.” 
Bucky moves to Charlotte’s side of the bed and tries to comfort her the best he can. She babbles but the only word he can make out is ‘mama’ and ‘hurt’. It makes him sick to his stomach to think that not only are you being hurt but that Charlotte has to see it happen. You wouldn’t want that for her. 
“Can you get Wanda?” Bucky asks Ed who nods and disappears. 
He holds Lottie closer to his chest and comforts her as best as he can. When Wanda walks in he’s relieved.
“Can you make her forget? Just for a little while.” 
“Of course I can.” 
Little sparks of red light move from Wanda’s hand to Lottie’s head. It doesn’t take long for his girl to lose the fight with consciousness.
“This is only a temporary fix.”
“I know, but she’s been through so much already, she doesn’t need to see her mother get hurt.” Bucky says as he gently caresses her cheek. “C’mere bubs.” Bucky says as he gets comfortable on the bed and opens his arms for Henry.
Wanda walks out and Ed closes the door to the room. He’ll do his best to look out for the kids but he feels unqualified. You’d know just how to comfort them. But he was drowning in a sea of worry and anguish right alongside them.
Tumblr media
Pain radiated from your wrists where your hands were bound, down to your shoulders as your arms were held up and over your head by some hook. They had you dangling in the air and whenever you didn’t answer their questions or told them to fuck off you’d receive another blow.  
“Get her down.” A man somewhere behind you said. 
You were angry and tired but you would fight them every step of the way. When one of the guards did get close and had started to unhook your hands, you took the small amount of strength you had left and swung yourself onto his shoulders. With your hands free you wrapped the rope your hands had been tied with around his neck and then you tightened it until he crumpled to the ground. 
This was your moment to fight your way out to at least make enough of a disturbance that someone somewhere would think to come looking. More guards made their way into the room, people you knew. They had been part of the Strike team. Knowing them didn’t stop you though, you managed to get four more guards down before someone grabbed you from behind. 
“I see the kitten still has claws.” 
“Rumlow. I thought you were dead.” You grit out as he pulls you down the hallway.
 You fight against his hold and he slams you against a wall. He hovers over you as you lay on the floor. His skin was marred with burn scars. His eyes still held that same anger and resentment toward the world and it was now directed at you. Rumlow wraps his hand around your throat. 
“I’ve wanted to get rid of you since our first mission.” 
You claw at his arms as he tightens his grip. The light hits a chain he has hidden under his shirt and your focus moves to that. You manipulate it and turn it into a spike and you jam it into the space between his shoulder and neck causing him to loosen his grip on you. Then you run. Unsure of where you’re going but that doesn’t stop you. An alarm goes off and there’s shouting behind you. None of it slows you down, not until you have to duck into some room to take cover. 
Fortunately for you it’s an empty lab. You leave the lights off as you move further in. The first thing you did was move the security camera. Then thinking back to all the time you spent with Bruce you look through the room for anything that could be used to set a fire or an explosion. Anything that will be distracting enough to give you the chance to flee. 
****
You found everything you needed and you made a makeshift bomb thanks to some late night talks with Tony. He had rambled about so many things that night and now you were so grateful for it. There are footsteps that stop right outside of the door. With quiet movements you take your place hiding as best you could. When one of the agents walks in you don’t wait and throw one of your bombs in his direction. He screams and you take the opportunity to run. 
There is no way for you to know which way will take you out of the building or deeper into it. The only thing that keeps you going is the thought of Bucky and the kids. You pushed forward through guards and agents. Using the supplies you had acquired carefully. It was the most tragic of outcomes. The exit was just right there, a few feet away but you’re dragged away by your hair back down the hallway. 
Rumlow was waiting for you. His arm twitched as blood ran down it. You must have hit some nerves.
Good.
That bastard deserved more than that. Once his men have thrown you at his feet he takes a knife out.
“You really are a dumb son of a bitch aren’t you.” You spit as the knife flies out of his hand and into the throat of one of the men that dragged you back. 
You manipulate it and swing it towards the other guard. It buries itself into his chest and you twist it until he’s on the ground. 
“That’s enough.” Your mother’s voice rings out from the end of the hall as you move to finish Rumlow. 
She moves quickly to stand over you. You meet her cold hardened gaze. Lorraine’s hand connects to your face. The knife follows the motion and cuts her across the cheek. She grabs it from where it’s moving back in her direction. 
“Take it you idiot and get out of my sight. Send someone else here now.” She says over her shoulder to Rumlow. 
“You continue to be a disappointment, but don’t worry I’ll have you fixed right up.” 
“Fuck you.” 
“My my, do you kiss your children with that mouth?” She chuckles as she looks down at you. “Take her to the exam room.” 
****
All you felt was pain. The leather straps were digging into your skin and the surgical table they had you on was cold. It didn’t help that you were completely naked in a room of strangers, your mother being one of them. They enjoyed the screams they ripped out of you as they began their work. Doing what? You weren’t sure. The drip they had you on kept you conscious enough to feel everything but drowsy enough that you couldn’t fight back. 
After hours of what felt like them pulling you apart and then putting you back together they stop. You cried just from relief until your mother stepped into your line of sight. She pretended to be a mother by wiping away the sweat off your forehead with faux concern on her face. 
“Why?” You asked. Your voice was hoarse from the screaming. 
“You have to be more specific.” 
“Why are you doing this? Why did you join them?” 
“Join them? No,” Lorraine shakes her head. “I didn’t join them, I was born into it. I’m a legacy and so are you or at least you will be when I’m done with you.” 
“Legacy?” Your head hurts just from having to think. 
“Yes, your grandfather was hydra too. Actually he was part of the team that helped create the winter soldier’s kids, including the two you stole.” 
“What?” You looked up at her with horror. “Is that why you had us?”
“It’s a bit complicated.” She moves around the table doing who knows what before she steps back into your line of sight. “I guess I should tell you the truth huh? It’s not like you’re ever getting out.” 
“My team will, they’ll come for me.” 
“If you think so.” She laughs and waves her hand dismissively. You always hated when she did that. “Your brother Luke was a mistake. I was young and dumb and on a small leave from my job here when I met your father. It was only meant to be a weekend fling. Then a few weeks later I found out that I was pregnant. My first thought was to get an abortion but my superiors thought that we could use the baby for some testing. Maybe even create the next super soldier. They gave me a shot and then sent me to find the baby’s father. Unfortunately the shot they gave me didn’t work, Luke didn’t have any abilities, no enhancements. Then my supervisors ordered me to have another child. Gave me so many shots to prepare me better and somehow things stuck and here you are able to manipulate metal.
You should know that I didn’t hate you at the beginning. I was very proud that you would be hydra’s next weapon. But you ended up being stubborn like your father so I had to try and teach you obedience. It obviously never stuck. That won’t matter soon though we’ll make sure you can’t go against us ever again.”
You were reeling from all of the information. 
“The twins?” 
“Hydra wanted more so I gave them more but the injections didn’t work like they did with you. You must’ve had some kind of mutant gene or something but we never got 
A chance to test it. Unfortunately your father was around too often for me to sneak you out of the house for a couple of days.” 
Was everything in your life a lie? A tear escaped you. 
She sighs. “Crying is for the weak. We made you strong, there is no need for tears. You should be proud that you will be the next weapon for hydra. Then we will get those two brats back and reprogram them. The three of you can go out and kill as a family, won’t it be wonderful?” 
Lorraine starts to walk away. The fear of the kids being brought back to something like this grips you and you’re begging for her to come back. She looks bored when she steps beside the table again.
“I’ll do whatever you want, just don’t go after them.”
“Whatever I want?”
“I won’t fight the guards any more. I’ll let you do whatever tests you want on me but you have to promise that you won’t go after the kids. Let them be.” 
She looks like she’s thinking it over and looks up to someone behind you then she smiles. 
“Fine, you’ve got yourself a deal. You let us prepare you and we’ll leave those brats alone.” 
“Ok.” You whisper. Relief washes over you although you know you can’t trust her. If she leaves them alone you’ll go through whatever you have to until the team finds you.
You’re dragged away from the exam room and this time you’re placed in a better cell. This one has a bed, a table and a chair. The guards throw you on the bed and then leave dirty, tattered clothes on the floor for you. You just curl up on the thin mattress and close your eyes. It won’t be long before the team will come for you.
Bucky will save you. You know he will.

Engraved in the Sea (Neteyam x (f) reader
I have a lot of ideas to continue this in several parts but only if y’all are interested :), I’m enjoying getting back into writing
----
The flight had been long and tiring. Neteyam felt his eyes tearing up from the cold wind as they whisked above the ocean. The sounds of waves colliding with the boulders nearby hit his ears.
But even with the loud winds zipping past his ear, he could still hear the audible sigh little Tuk let out.
"Are you alright, Tuk?" He yelled over the wind. His mother pulled the little girl closer to her chest, looking down at the youngest Sully to hear her reply.
"Are we there yet?" Tuk whined.
Lo'ak groaned and rolled his shoulders, "Not yet, Tuk. Can't you see we are lost?"
"Hey," Jake cut in, looking behind him to turn to his son, "We aren't lost. I know where we are going."
"So how much further then, daddy?" Tuk asked.
Silence etched across the group, all waiting for Jake to reply.
Neytiri sighed at her husband, "You are lost."
"No, I'm not. Just trying to find the right reef barrier." He assured them.
"We're lost, Dad," Kiri groaned, slumping over in her seat on the ikran.
"….No, we're fine," Jake said.
The others sighed.
----
The day was gorgeous, tranquil, and with crystal blue waters. Nothing seemed to break the peace.
Until you gagged and spat out the bite, you took from your fruit, "Damn, that's not ripe."
You sighed and leaned forward on your ilu, "Do you want this gorgeous?"
The creature chirped happily and gladly took the remainder of the fruit. You smiled and readjusted yourself in your seat.
"Welp, that was our break, little one. Time to get back to work," you sighed, adjusting your bag strapped over your shoulder.
The ilu chirped once before moving forward, taking a small runup before descending below the surface of the ocean waves. You gripped your hold firmly on your ilu, carefully eyeing the ecosystem around you as you swam by.
'Everything seems in order.' You thought to yourself. You were just near the edge of your protected reef, where the waves we quiet but still present. Even below in the water, you could still feel the pull of the currents.
After a while, your lungs started to feel tight, and you gently tapped your ilu on the side of the head, signaling to go up. Together, you broke through the surface. You were just on the edge of the reef, ready to take another dive before your ilu stiffened.
You frowned, "what's wrong little one?"
The ilu lifted its head ever so slightly; you followed suit, peering your gaze at the sky. Your eyes winded when your caught sight of-
"Ikrans," you whispered before tapping your ilu, "Those are mountain banshees. They have riders."
You peered at the sky once more, eyeing their flight pattern. The one in the front seemed to hover ever so slightly as if second-guessing which way to go.
You eyed the reef barrier before sighing and commanding your ilu to go forward, breaking through the reef barrier.
"Looks like we will have some guests, little one."
---
"Ma Jake, if we are lost, we should rest somewhere first," Neytiri sighed, hugging Tuk closer.
"We're not lost. We need to get a little closer," Jake replied.
Neteyam sighed and looked around the waters, hoping to find somewhere noticeable for them to land.
An eerie noise hit his ears, a quiet but steading whistling. Even in the sky, he could hear it faintly. Looking down below, he could see the light blue figure waving at his family near the outer edge of what looked like the reef barrier his dad had discussed.
"Dad, look down there," He said, pointing to the figure.
"It's a Na'vi," Kiri replied.
Jake flew down closer, and his family wearily followed suit.
The Na'vi down in the water sat on a water creature, a spear held in one hand. She was greener than any Na'vi Neteyam had seen before, far different from his appearance.
"You're a long way from home," The figure yelled up to them, jutting her head, "Na'vi of the Omatikaya clan, far from home, traveling these waters."
Neytiri straightened up in her seat, tightening her grip on Tuk and her bow.
The Na'vi lowered her spear so it dipped in the water, "I can tell from your Ikrans, if you are to pass through these waters, you talk to the Olo'eyktan Tonwera and his Tsahìk Ronal.
"The village is close?" Jake asked.
The girl nodded sideways, "Awa'atlu is just further north, past this reef barrier."
"Lower any weapons when you arrive," the girl added, eyeing the bow in the Neytiri's hand, "If you come in peace, act as such."
With that, the creature she sat upon chirped and dived below the water. With the Na'vi still on it, they glided through the water and towards the village.
Jake looked to his family, taking a deep breath, "Let's go, everyone. We can do this."
Wearily, they followed their father to the village, the kids still eyeing the spot where the girl was a mere second ago.
---
You emerged from the water upon the shores of your home.
The rest of your clan circled near the edge of the decks. You could see your family through the gaps of the circle. Starting with your mother and father, the former of which was hissing at the new arrivals, with their mother responding as such. Even from here, you could see the tense aura and sighed.
"Go play with the others, little one," You whispered to her ilu. Grasping your bag over your shoulder and leaving your spear near the beach, you walked up the shoreline towards your clan and the newcomers.
People caught your eye and moved out of the way as you walked through the crowd, they nodded to you in respect, and you replied before reaching the front, catching the last of your mother talking.
"What reason should we have to welcome such Na'vi into our home?"
"With all due respect, your scout led us here," Jake replied, hugging Tuk closer to his embrace.
Tonwera frowned, "Scout?"
You sighed and stepped forward, gently placing your hands on your sibling's shoulders, Tsireya and Ao'nung, eyeing the forest Na'vi children, one with distrust and Tsierya with curiosity. The two stepped out of the way and let you pass, allowing yourself to stand tall.
"It was me, father. I was collecting medicine from the reefs," You spoke, keeping your tall and firm stance even when all eyes turned to you.
Tonwera nodded his head to me, "My oldest, Y/n."
"You led them here, daughter?" Ronal asks.
You nod before stepping towards their guests. You look to your father, who gives you a subtle nod.
Nodding back, you eyed each of the members of the Omaticaya clan, taking in their darker blue and patterns etched into their skin, lack of tattoos, and lean muscles. Their figures wouldn't make them strong swimmers, nor would their tails. Their hair would be heavy in the water.
You stopped in front of one particular figure. He was the tallest out of the siblings and the eldest. His gaze bore into yours, but it seemed more like a stare. You smirked and glanced at the rest of them. They were doing the same but trying to be more subtle about it—one thing you tend to forget about yourself on occasion is your appearance. While dressed the same as the others in your clan, in seashells and tattoos, hair neatly braided, there was a distinct feature permanently marking your face, which the kids seemed unable to look away from.
From the tip of your browbone to the side of your jaw was a deep pink scar that grazed across your face, specifically your right eye, making it look pale compared to your other eye, which was startling blue.
The scar was noticeable, and Neteyam couldn't help but stare. The oldest daughter brought her hand up to her face and gestured out a greeting. Neteyam blinked out of his frozen state and hastily gestured back. Your pale eye and blue one bore into him before turning back to the rest of his family.
Your gaze stopped upon Tuk, the youngest and the most frighted, which you could tell by the way she tucked into her father's shoulder.
You eyed Jake, "Jake Sully, we know who you are and what dangers follow you, especially regarding the sky people."
'I'm just trying to protect my family. And get away from all of that," He replied, which caused your eyes to flicker to Tuk and Neytiri's anxious eyes again.
You turned back to your parents, looking directly at your mother, "They may not be the strongest in our waters, and it's a risky move on our part, but if our family was in their position, would you pray for our safety in another's sanctuary too?"
Ronal sighed and looked at her husband, our Chief.
Quietly, You walked back to your siblings, and your father began speaking again. You whispered to Ao'nung, 'stop glaring. It's ugly when you do."
"Says you scarface," he replied.
"Always creative with your insults, brother," You said and turned back to face their guests.
It was decided they were to stay. The family card stuck with the Chief and his wife, being parents themselves.
Jake dropped his shoulders in relief and thanked them. Then began the discussions of teaching them the ways of the metkayina, to which you and Roxto chuckled when Chief said they would be like babies.
"My children will teach yours the way of our people."
You eyed Tsierya as she smiled before following her gaze to the younger brother of the Sullys.
She sighed, "Someone caught your eye, aye."
Your younger sister blushed, and you nudged her shoulder.
"Children," Tonowei spoke up, looking at his family. We all straightened up, "They are your responsibility when teaching. Look after them."
Father then walked up to you and placed a hand on your shoulder, "But don't let it get in the way of your responsibilities. You can't afford to fall behind now."
"Of course."
You eyed the Sullys behind your father's shoulder. They looked at each other with reassurance and sought comfort in being near their parents. You looked to Neteyam again, taking in his firm and protective stance over his siblings.
I guess I'm not the only one with such a protective role. This would be interesting indeed.' She thought to herself.
"Don't worry, father, and I'm sure this will be well worth it."
"Let's hope so."
You licked your salty lips, bringing back to bitter taste from earlier.
"Also, the fruit picked this morning is not ripe."
Your father groaned, "Damn, I was looking forward to those."

Fellowship Marriage and Wedding Headcanons
Aragorn + Arwen
As we see in the movies and books their wedding is a very big to-do in Gondor. Arwen has a great eye and has picked out excellent design choices. If Aragorn had his way they would have been married in a small ceremony in Rivendell outside years ago but also Elrond saw to it that didn’t happen
They very much co-lead and have a fairly equal relationship. I say fairly because ultimately Arwen always has the last say
Aragorn genuinely and intensely worships his wife and will not hesitate to bring her or her opinions up at any given time.
They fuck A LOT. Aragorn absolutely knows how to please a woman and enjoys doing so
Sam and Frodo
Yes they’re married, no he didn’t go to the undying lands, no Sam doesn’t marry Rosie what are you talking about?
I think it would be wildly funny is they got married at Bilbo’s birthday party- but realistically I think they got married in Rivendell on their way back from the quest.
When Sam becomes Mayor he appoints Frodo as his deputy so they can work together
They have a very affectionate and loving relationship to the point where other hobbits (Merry and Pippin) get annoyed by their gratuitous displays of PDA
They have sex like once a week but cuddle everyday
They’re very protective of one another
Eowyn and Faramir
I’ve said it before I’ll say it again, Faramir is a trans woman-they are lesbians
Have a very equal relationship although Eowyn appears more dominant (and kinda is)
They share political power very equally though
They both are scared to be parents but also really want kids: spoiler alert they had nothing to worry about they are excellent parents
Eowyn is very open about sex and will discuss it or go at it in semi public spaces, Faramir is more shy so Eowyn respects this but encourages her to be more confident
Pippin and Diamond
They met at the strip club where Diamond is a dancer
They instantly fell in love
They are super devoted to one another
They are ALWAYS going at it and have evidence of their sex life displayed around their living room-this makes guests very uncomfortable
Pippin takes pole dancing classes to impress Diamond. He also takes her to the male strip club so “she can enjoy it”
His parents are a little disappointed but they keep it to themselves because they’re just happy Pippin finally settled down
Merry and Estella
I hate to say this but their marriage is low-key arranged. Merry’s dad wanted him to get married and Estella’s family wanted connections
At first they kinda like eachother and get along but Estella rapidly becomes annoyed with Merry’s constant being high and having Pippin over
She eventually divorces him. He goes to crash on Pippin’s couch for an extended stay
Eventually he goes back to Buckland. Estella gets rich off the divorce
Merry is happy with his bachelor lifestyle and has plenty of various boyfriends and girlfriends over the years. He teases his friends for being “tied down”
Legolas and Gimli
Their wedding is held in Dale in an attempt at neutrality but a fight breaks out between the dwarves and elves at the reception and they sneak away
They love to travel together
They have tried everything. And I mean everything. They never run out of ideas to spice up their sex life
They do sleep in separate rooms though because Legolas kicks and Gimli snores
They do not want kids but like being the weird uncles of everyone else’s kids. They don’t want the responsibility
Credit for the Diamond is a hobbit stripper headcanon goes to @diplomatson thank you my friend for that excellent idea
