Talk About True Love

I keep putting this off until I feel like my thoughts are coherent, but they're never going to be coherent lmao

True's Love Caress and True Love's Embrace are a matching pair of rings you loot in Reithwin. Despite the light-hearted item descriptions, the true story attached to them is far more grim. It both foreshadows Aylin's situation and, in my opinion, encapsulates a central theme of Act 2.

Reading "Bonded By Love - Husband's Diary" reveals the husband in question married Miranda, a Sharran cleric. She proposed to him on the eve of battle, officiated the ceremony on the spot, and blessed the rings the two would wear. The husband was elated. What he did not know, however, was the true purpose of the rings. As long as they wore the rings, any wound she received would be reflected onto her husband instead. Miranda could survive wicked battles without so much as a scratch. Meanwhile in Reithwin, every single wound appeared on her husband's body. He never knew the source. No one would tell or help him. The House of Healing sent him away. Finally, it killed him.

And, that's what Act 2 is all about: compassion, in the most fucked up sense imaginable. I mean the root word of compassion — compati: to suffer with. I was taught that pati isn't merely "suffer"; it is "torture". Compati is then "tortured with". In English, compassion has connotation of not merely feeling pity for someone. That alone would be sympathy. It is feeling that pity so keenly that you are compelled to action, for it is as if you suffer alongside them and to end their agonies is to end your own.

Act 2 is about the darker aspects of that. I'm trying to think how to word this . . . It's about compassion being weaponized and taken advantage of. It's in the way you're able to talk all of the Thorms in Reithwin into self-destructing by putting yourself into their shoes for a moment, understanding what makes them tick, and turning that against them. It's in the way He Who Was takes Madeline's soul into his body so that she may be judged for her crimes and the way the guilt of protecting herself at the expense of her friends torments her more than anything else. It's in the way the tadpole connects every cultist at Moonrise and beyond on the deepest level, allowing them to share every experience directly, and the way you would be among their ranks were it not for a fluke.

It's in the way everyone tried to comfort Ketheric after Isobel's death, but his pain ran so deep that he shouldered his torment alone, believing no one could be tormented with him. But, it was a torment too great for one person, so he spread it like a blight across the world. He sought to force them into compassion, into compatior, into being tortured with. So he took the one person for whom Isobel was also their entire world, and rather than take comfort in their mutual grief, he caged her in the Shadowfell. He bound her with a curse that forced her to suffer every blow that should ever be visited upon him and ensured she would be tortured eternally as he was. He led hundreds of people to Shar to lose everything in her embrace as he had already lost everything. He covered the land in an all-consuming darkness that would make undead husks of them just as he felt lost in darkness in twisted mimicry of life since his daughter's death. Then he sold his soul to Myrkul to get Isobel back and in turn stole hundreds, perhaps thousands, of souls by infecting them with tadpoles.

And, he is yet another Thorm you have the option to talk into self-destruction. You can approach him with compassion for his story, and he can be touched by it, making the subsequent fights easier. But, you cannot avoid those fights. It's not that compassion came to him too late. It's that he accepted it too late. He believed his pain was so deep none could touch it — and so none could. So focused on wanting others to feel his suffering that he failed to feel theirs, only inflicted more.

we cry together is so toxic relationship with dick grayson coded

ESPECIALLY VERSE 2!!!!! (I skipped some lines to fit the story and changed a few words to better fit dick's character </3) also this specific dick is gonna be known as "toxic relationship!dick grayson" (tags)

tw: arguments, toxic relationship, on again off again relationship vibes, allusions to dick cheating on reader with babs

It was inevitable that the two of you would get into another argument - about her. Barbara Gordon. The beautiful, fit, intelligent and witty daughter of the police commissioner James Gordon. Fuck, you were jealous of her. Of what she meant to Dick. You knew that they were a thing before the two of you got together, and yet almost every time he bailed on you it was to see Barbara.

"R/n I swear that there's nothing on between us. It's just work and friendship. I wouldn't do that to you." Dick tries to reason with you, albeit angrily.

"Oh really? Cus I know for a fact that you've cheated on someone with that redheaded hoe!" You hiss, your hands on the island bench as you stare into the guilty eyes of the man before you, your keys resting a few inches from you. He throws his hands up and shakes his head in disbelief. As if he didn't do exactly that to Kori.

"For God's sake, why are you making this so difficult? All we're doing is working. On. A. Case. What don't you understand about that?" Dick annunciate the last part in a slow, firm voice, reminiscent of the voice that one would use to talk to a misbehaving toddler.

"Nah, you're just a lil dick-ass slut that's tryna go big. Tryna make a name for yourself as Gotham's resident whore or what?" with a mirthless chuckle, you use your hands to gesture.

Dick's annoyingly perfect eyebrows furrow, and he smirks, "But you were suckin' this dick though.". This comment throws you off momentarily, but you quickly clap back.

"Well, shit, I shoulda sucked his." who's cock you were referring to? You don't know, and it didn't matter. What mattered right now was pissing Dick off to the point that he'd apologise and to promise to never see Barbara without anyone else present.

This wiped the smirk off of Dick's face immediately, the sudden change was hilarious. If you weren't so infuriated, you would've laughed in his stupid stunned face. "What? Fuckin' repeat what you said."

"I shoulda found a bigger dick." you make sure to punctuate each word with a crisp, satisfying clap, astounding your boyfriend even more. His expression quickly turns sour and bitter.

"What? You mad? Because you can go text that raggedy bitch and tell her you all that she got." You gloat, pointing at the phone in his left hand. With a huff, Dick quickly snatches up your car keys, moving towards the living room to inevitably get away from you. Fuck, you still need to get to work.

"Dick, give me my keys, Imma be late for work." with furrowed eyebrows you follow him, where he stops near the coffee table, arms crossed.

"Fuck your job, today's gonna be the day you walk to that bitch." he scowls, eyes narrowed as he glares at you, giving a quick glance at the clock. 7:58 AM.

You sigh inwardly, pinching your eyebrows, "I need to leave at 8, give me my keys, bro." and the devil that is Dick Grayson lets out a bark of laughter.

"On God, you aren't getting these keys." He raises the keys out of your reach when you make a grab for them, leaving you to accidentally swipe at his upper arm.

"Give me my fucking keys!" You yell, fruitlessly trying to reach for your keys again, to which Dick laughs at again.

"Ah, now you mad at me, I got you hollerin' for nothin'."

"I do the same when we fuckin'."

"Acting like that pussy ain't loose."

"I'd rather act like I'm cummin'."

"I'd rather fuck off that juice."

"I'd rather fuck on your brother."

Dick was about to retort back but he paused. Wait, what? "Bitch, you said you're gonna fuck who?" he hisses, an ugly frown adorning his face and his breath heavy. At this point his arms are folded again, your keys tucked into a large hand.

A bitter smirk on your face, you reply, "You heard me, bitch, it's nothing.". Your heart is racing, was that too far? Definitely, but if it makes him feel even a fraction of how you feel when he's with Babs, then it's worth it.

Dick carelessly chucks your car keys onto the coffee table behind him, stalking backing you into the couch as he stares you down. Fuck, you're in for it now. You're forced to sit, with how in your face he is and you cross your own arms. Two can play that game. You glower up at him, daring him to say or do something.

"That better be nothing. No one knows you better than I do. No one." he scowls, moving a hand to cup your cheek.

❝I watched you change.❞ ❝I could be mean. I could be angry. You know I could be just like you.❞

﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏✪✭✪﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏✪✭✪﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏

Pairing: Dallas Winston x Fem! Reader

Summary:After Dallas criticizing the reader's ways after thinking she was flirting with a Two-Bit, she decided to change.

Trope: Enemies to lovers

Warnings: Cursing, Smoking, Dallas being a cute idiot. <3

Songs: Change - Deftones, Just like you - Three Days Grace

﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏✪✭✪﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏✪✭✪﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏﹏

You walked into the Curtis house, in a really good mood.

"Good morning! What's up?" you said with a bright smile as you shut the door behind you.

Everyone greeted you- well, some more bitter than others.

"Can you just shut up for once? And what the hell are you wearing? That band sucks." He said pointing to your cropped band t-shirt and your ripped baggy jeans in disgust before taking a puff of his cigarette.

"Oh. Sorry, I just woke up in a good mood I guess. Felt like wearing it. And you listen to the same band, Dally." You said, your attitude going from happy to sad real quick.

You were very sensitive and was very sweet to everyone. You didn't understand why he was being so mean to you.

"Dally, what is your problem? She's being nice to you and you're being a major dick." Johnny said.

Johnny never talked to his idol like that.

"She's being annoying, alright? So why don't you just shut up Johnny."

"Alright. I'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye Johnny." You walked out the house and didn't come back for the rest of the day.

"Fine then. Little bitch." He muttered under his breath as he watched you leave, covering up his regret.

"What's up with you, man? Why'd you talk to her like that?" Two-Bit said to his buddy, looking away from his show of Mickey Mouse for the first time. But he couldn't help but listen to the conversation between his two friends.

"Wouldn't you like to know, lover boy. Don't worry about it-"

"No I'm gonna worry about it. Y/N ain't did nothin' wrong since she got here and you're treating her like crap. You need to apologize, Dal."

"Yeah. I ain't gotta do shit."

°.✩┈┈∘*┈˃̶୨୧˂̶┈*∘┈┈✩.°°.✩┈┈∘*┈˃̶୨୧˂̶┈*∘┈┈✩.°

It was the next day. And instead of wearing your favorite band, you just wore a regular plain blue T-shirt and sweatpants.

Dallas walked in the Curtis house to see you smoking with Johnny and Ponyboy, laughing at Pony's joke about some girl at school.

"Oh my lord! She does walk like that-" You cut yourself off at the sight of Dallas' figure walking through the door.

You blew a puff of smoke, looking away from him.

He sat on the couch, looking at you from a distance.

"Got something to say, Dal? Hm?" You sassed, rolling your eyes before looking at Johnny and Ponyboy.

"What's your problem?" He said, seeming he has forgotten everything from yesterday.

"Oh I'm sorry. I guess I'm still being annoying since you still managed to notice me sitting right here." You said with sarcasm in your voice.

He looked at you, realizing.

"Since when did you smoke?" He said, grabbing the cigarette from your mouth.

"Since I was being annoying. I just thought I'd act just like you. Because you seem to love yourself a lot. You just can't get enough of yourself. You are a selfish person who I thought was my friend. I hate you, Dally." You got up, slamming the door behind you.

He stayed there for a minute, a pain in his chest soon spreading to his brain and the rest of his body.

"Dally, Go." Johnny said, pointing to the direction your went.

He though for a minute, walking out the door to see you on the porch.

"Hey, Doll." He sat down beside you on the steps.

"What do you want."

"Okay don't start your moody shit right now. If you're gonna start that, go flirt with Two-Bit some more." He said, looking at you with anger, also a hint of sadness.

"What?! Dal, you can't be serious right now. I don't think of Two like that and you know it."

"Oh yeah? Then why were you talkin' to him all cutesy at the drive in yesterday morning? Huh?"

"Well if you have to know, he was helping me get a gift for you. I was gonna tell you something but you started being a jerk. So I left." You said, handing him a customized lighter.

He held it in his hands, staring at the designs of the flowers and the skulls.

"Doll, I'm so sorry."

Dallas Winston felt terrible. He got it all wrong and made you feel bad for absolutely nothing.

"It's alright. I just hope we're at least friends again." You said with hope lacing your voice as you looked at him.

"Actually, I was hoping for something different.."

"Look, Dal. I didn't mean to be annoying yesterday. I was in a good mo-"

"Doll, it's fine. You're not annoying. I'm just a major asshole. Forgive me?" He smiled, grabbing your hand gently.

You nodded, squeezing his hand slightly, leaning up to kiss his cheek.

He wrapped his arms around you, pulling you into a tight hug.

Oh my lord, I just saw a thing on Pinterest that said: Of course I cum fast- I'm a busy man. I have places to be.

And first of all- hysterical. 10 out of 10. This man will not be shamed.

Second of all, of course- Here are the Horror Men I think would abandon you after cumming themselves VS The ones that would never leave you high and dry like that (Indented):

Warnings: Orgasm denial, selfish fucking/loving

(Most of) These men in this post:

Animal The Cannibal: If Manny calls on him I bet he would go 😅 Sorryyyyy.

Billy Loomis: He likes the feeling of you cumming around him too much for that. Don't get me wrong- he is a pretty selfish lover. It's just that, part of his pleasure happens to come from yours.

Bo Sinclair: Nahhhhh. It's not that he's wanting to be kind to you- he just thinks it's a mark of a sissy if he can't get his lover to cum for him. It's for bragging rights.

Bubba Sawyer: Yeahh... sorry Y/N. If one of his brothers call on him he will ALWAYS go.

Candyman: Look, its not always!, so don't get me wrong- Daniel is a good lover. I'm sure he is. But at times he just... doesn't have the time 😅

Captain Spaulding: Sorry doll, he's got like 3 insane middle aged children running about not cleaning up their messes and he's gotta get on that shit XD

Chop Top Sawyer: If you've got his attention, which you certainly do if you're engaging in sex with him, then he's all yours. He's all for you.

Chucky Lee Ray: He's full of bullshit but he is also quite busy so... take this as you will.

Dr Suave: Ain't nothin' gonna keep him from the face you're gonna make sweet thing... (*Cough* Sweet talker)

Drayton Sawyer: GENUINLEY REAL BUSY!! He'd stay if he could!! Don't sulk though, he'll get pissy at you.

Freddy Krueger: Damn, you're waking up! Well- Goodluck!~ (This asshole)

Harper Alexander: This man is Buckman's bitch- he literally pimps himself out for him 😅 So... yeah... Maybe you could talk to Buckman? Ask him not to call on Harper during the hours of 5-8pm On Friday Nights please??? 😆

Inkubus: Not his style.

Jack Dante: It depends on where his head is. It's hard to keep him in one place for long- if he's got his head in the clouds, his show is on, or he's got 'work to do', he'll literally just take care of himself and then fuck off. (If you manage to hold his attention though he WILL go until you fall asleep and then be there waiting when you wake up again. Stamina for days, I swear).

Jason Voorhees: The chances are, if you've gotten Jason to engage in... the act!!... then its gonna be all about you, anyway. He might not want to cum. It's in his nature to take care of the people he loves, anyway. So it's kinda the other way around, here... but voluntarily.

Jedidiah Sawyer: Too sweet. Plus, without a family shooing him this way and that anymore, he's suddenly got so much more time on his hands! Haha.

Jerry Dandridge: If he's sleeping with you his full attention is on you, and very little will have to power to stop it.

Kieran Wilcox: I love the idea that this too-cool-for-school, bastard guy- has really bad stamina (: So (: Yeah (:

Leslie Vernon: This asshole 😅 He's like sorry sweetie, I have preparations to do, *Forehead kiss*, love you so much, see ya! (He's being genuine, too. This is not a line because he's being lazy or selfish- He gets tunnel vision something fierce).

Lester Sinclair: I swear he hates leaving you unfulfilled, he really really hates it, but sometimes he just needs a little something to keep him happy before going to see his brothers and he doesn't have time to take care of you. He will when he gets back!! He promises.

Max Grief: He just wouldn't wanna leave you displeased. He wants to make you happy (:

Mayor Buckman: This one genuinly makes me laugh XD This man, oh my lord. Someone will knock on the door and he'll be OFF- forgetting in his eagerness to be do Town Duties that he first has duties to you goddamnit!-

Mental Manny: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh what a dick. I'm sorry, but a dick appointment with Manny is just that- an appointment. And like any asshole with an appointment book he will decide once he's got what he wanted out of the transaction that oh, sorry, time is up! He has to go preach to some devotees for an hour. Bye sweetheart!~

Michael Myers: You just know he would. He does not care.

Mickey Altieri: Just not a selfish lover. It's equal with him.

Midnight Man: He might think its a game... 😅

Monty Hewitt: Well fuck, who knows what Hoyt might saw off him if he ignores him this time?? Please believe him when he says he wants to stay though, he really fucking does.

Otis B Driftwood: 'I'll go around back and take control, like I always fucken do'- Otis has clearly got a complex for being the Big Man in Charge, yes. And this is part of the reason he will leave you high and dry... the other part though is him being a DICK.

Patrick Bateman: Like Michael, he doesn't care. You can finish up yourself while he gets his keto dinner started.

Pennywise: I feel like with Penny its marathon sex or it's nothin', so yeah you're gonna cum. Do not fear.

Rocco The Clown: No way in hell will anyone ever tear him away from you. Oh, no. He (And I) would like to see them try.

SHERIFF HOYT: BECAUSE HE'S SHERIFF HOYT. HE IS EXACTLY THAT PINTEREST QUOTE.

Stu Macher: Would also genuinely say that 😅 Will answer every beck and call of Billy's and so thinks he's a very busy man. Call him back though and he probably will listen to you. Sorry Billy.

Stuart Lloyd: Okay- this man has probably not had sex for a LONG time- if ever. So yeah- even the muse gets ignored during that time XDD 😅 He~ is~ desperate (:

DBD The Clown: Sometimes he's too tired, which is understandable I suppose, but the asshole part?? He giggles about it. I mean, after that he coughs because he has not taken care of his body, but first he definetly giggles =_=

DBD The Deathslinger: He ain't as young as he once was- you just gotta give him a moment to breath XD Usually. Sometimes he will just smirk at you and leave, though. Cuz he's an EVIL COWBOY.

The Djinn: Not his style- Part 2.

The Man: He just would =_=

The Taxidermist: Like Stuart he is has been very dry for a very long time and he is NOT about to mess up this chance.

Thomas Hewitt: I would say he's the same as Bubba... but Thomas is a little tougher. Unless Luda Mae tried to call him away... you're good. He'll always finish you off before answering anyone else. (And Luda Mae wants grandbabies too much to pull him away XDD )

Vincent Sinclair: Sex is a whole night with him. He will have planned to have the whole evening and through the night without an interruption, so you don't run into any problems like this ^^

Winslow Foxworth Coltrane: Nahhhhhhh. He's likin' what's going on here too much. Not even Otis on cocaine with a gun will separate him from you.

oh my god it's over… now you can all stop complaining about the length of this chapter. i'm not sorry, and it will happen again. next time don't act so surprised.

let's get our chapter theme

"Break My Stride" by Matthew Wilder

youtube

♫ Ain't nothin' gonna to break my stride, Nobody gonna slow me down, oh no, I got to keep on moving Ain't nothin' gonna break my stride, I'm running and I won't touch ground, Oh no, I got to keep on moving You're on the road and now you pray it lasts, The road behind was rocky, But now you're feeling cocky, You looked at me and you see your past, Is that the reason why you're runnin' so fast?♫

The Owl House, Season 3, Episode 3, "Watching and Dreaming," SERIES FINALE!

youtube

Well folks, the much-anticipated finale to The Owl House has finally dropped. Quite a bit...prematurely, true, but at the very least they had time to wrap things up with some measure of foresight.

So, how was it?

...you even need to ask?

Yeah, I loved it. No, it didn't really break away a whole lot from established norms for these finales. The bad guy gets an eleventh hour powerup and turns into a Kaiju, the misunderstood trickster antagonist is made to see the error of their ways and has a redemption arc, the hero has their big heroic sacrifice only to be resurrected with a Super Saiyan powerup, and we have a big fight. The bad guy is finally defeated, everyone is reunited, people get to work rebuilding, and we have the future epilogue touching base with everyone's happy ending. Nothin' we ain't seen before.

But it was still glorious.

Obviously, a lot of moving parts, so here's some personal highlights.

First, only my usual followers will get this, but I got a huge kick about how things started with basically the Restless arc from RD. I mean, the main characters being confronted with their deepest fears through personal nightmares? Sign me the fuck up! And lol, Luz was willing to accept that everyone hates her, but Amity misquoting their geeky hyper-fixation? Never!

I also like how it was the actual characters instead of dream copies, only controlled by the Collector. That was neat.

Part of me was bummed by how little Camilla and the Hexside gang had to do. Basically, keep everyone in the Archives safe until the reformed Collector came in with the save. I get it, it's the finale, but I really wanted to see Camilla go after Belos with la chancala. But then, things did start with Luz, Eda, and King, so it's fitting that they ended with that trio as well.

Okay, look. I'm a jaded, cynical guy. I've seen it all, and I know my tropes. So I knew there was no way in hell that Luz was actually dead. Still, when they've made me care that much about a character and pull things off that well...I was a little concerned. As if in, I kept telling myself that she wasn't dead, that she would be resurrected in minutes, it's a kid's show, yadda yadda yadda. Still. It did affect me. Well done.

Oh, the Titan! You know, I had forgotten the hints about them being caught in the in-between world, but we finally get to meet King's...dad? Mom? Parent? It wasn't super clear. I'm guessing gender-neutral being who appears rocking the Dad-bod because that's what Luz expected. Voice by Arin Hanson, no less! That was a pleasant surprise.

Also, does this confirm that Hooty is basically the Titan's grave worm? Wow.

ANYWAY, it was nice to finally meet the big guy. And it was cute how they were there watching the Owl House along with us, and Luz ended up being their blorbo. I mean, if your dying act was to reach into your favorite show and empower your favorite character to finally earn a happy ending, wouldn't you take it?

And okay, look. I know this is kind of hypocritical coming from me, given that Hordak is one of my favorite She-Ra characters, but I'm so glad that this show took such a definitive stand against not only redeeming Belos, but also shutting down the idea that just because the hero has done superficially similar things to the villain, it means that they're somehow the same. I always hated that trope.

I also love how it made it clear how some antagonists can be redeemed and others can't. For all the harm that the Collector did, they're still a little kid with no real concept of mortality. It doesn't make what they did okay, but it did give them a path to do better. And I loved how they immediately tried to redeem Belos with the power of friendship, only for the show to be like, "Yeah, that don't work with some people."

And in the end, the hero didn't bother justifying herself to Belos. She just stepped back and let the people that he hurt literally curbstomp him to death. And it was beautiful.

Now, again, much like the Human World montage in Thanks to Them, I would have loved for certain things to have room to breathe, like Camilla meeting Eda, all the reunions, finding out what happened to Odalia, repairing the Boiling Isles, etc. But with what they had to work with, seeing the healing happening, seeing the sort of people everyone would become (of course Eda would go with a giant hook), really felt right. It was a well-earned happy ending.

You know, it's funny. When this show first started, I often complained about how its episodic nature made it difficult to really get invested, and I still stand by that. But man, once the fetters came off, things really kicked into high gear and this show became magical! Yes, it was prematurely ended, and I would have loved for season 3 to have as much space to be as awesome as season 2. But what they gave us was still incredible.

Goodbye, Boiling Isles. I loved the time I spent with you. Here's to the brighter future you helped build.

...you have no idea how hard it was to find this screenshot.

I 100% blame the parents for allowing their daughter to be abused by such a cruel and wicked man

Aaliyah & Her Family Were Silenced By R. Kelly Following Marriage Annulment

Photo: Getty Images

Aaliyah was one of R. Kelly'smost high-profile victims in the '90s. Yet, neither the late singer or her family could speak out about the abuse she suffered due to a non-disclosure agreement Kelly forced her family to sign. In the final installments of Lifetime's Surviving R. Kelly, which aired January 2 and January 3, Aaliyah was revealed as Jane Doe #1 who was mentioned throughout Kelly's federal trial in New York last year. The docuseries followed the trial and centered around the teenage singer's inappropriate relationship with Kelly, who was 27 when he worked on her debut album Age Ain't Nothin But A Number.

According to Variety, Kelly and Aaliyah secretly got married in 1994. The singer was only 15, but their marriage certificate was altered to say she was 18. Her family declined to be interviewed for the show, but Kelly's former security and childhood friend Gem Pratt opened up about his knowledge of the situation. Pratt said that Aaliyah's father did not approve of their relationship and forced them to get the marriage annulled. The only reason statutory rape charges weren't filed against Kelly at the time is because he made a contractual agreement with Aaliyah's family. As part of the deal, Kelly sold the rights to his first three albums to her family. “[Aaliyah's] dad didn’t want her anywhere near him,” Pratt said in the docuseries. Kelly's NDA with Aaliyah and her family was mentioned in his New York trial in 2021. Aaliyah's name was first brought up in the opening statements of the trial when Assistant U.S. Attorney Maria Cruz Melendez re-told the story of how Kelly met the singer when she was 12 years old and began engaging in sexual acts with her, which last several years. Melendez also alleged that it was a pregnancy scare that encouraged Kelly to devise a plan to marry Aaliyah to avoid facing criminal charges. In the docuseries, Pratt said that Kelly couldn't have made that plan or abused other victims without help. “He couldn’t do this by himself," Pratt said. "It’s impossible…It’s clear as day there were enablers." “This was not a one-man operation," he added. "Most people in that camp knew that a lot of these girls were underage. They had to.” R. Kelly is currently serving a 30-year sentence in prison after he was found guilty of all charges.

reader inserts are fun to some people. they should be a under a read more so people who don't like them don't hav to deal with them, that's just respectful, but i wish this site wasn't so hell bent on mocking people for what they enjoy. also a lot of reader inserts are aimed at gay/bi/pan ppl. they're not only het :).

[Intro] May I have your attention, please? May I have your attention, please? Will the real Slim Shady please stand up? I repeat, will the real Slim Shady please stand up? We're gonna have a problem here…

[Verse 1] Y'all act like you never seen a white person before Jaws all on the floor like Pam like Tommy just burst in the door And started whoopin' her ass worse than before They first were divorced, throwin' her over furniture (Agh!) It's the return of the "Oh, wait, no way, you're kidding He didn't just say what I think he did, did he?" And Dr. Dre said… nothing, you idiots! Dr. Dre's dead, he's locked in my basement (Ha ha!) Feminist women love Eminem "Chicka, chicka, chicka, Slim Shady, I'm sick of him Look at him, walkin' around, grabbin' his you-know-what Flippin' the you-know-who," "Yeah, but he's so cute though" Yeah, I probably got a couple of screws up in my head loose But no worse than what's goin' on in your parents' bedrooms Sometimes I wanna get on TV and just let loose But can't, but it's cool for Tom Green to hump a dead moose "My bum is on your lips, my bum is on your lips" And if I'm lucky, you might just give it a little kiss And that's the message that we deliver to little kids And expect them not to know what a woman's clitoris is Of course, they're gonna know what intercourse is By the time they hit fourth grade They've got the Discovery Channel, don't they? We ain't nothin' but mammals—well, some of us, cannibals Who cut other people open like cantaloupes But if we can hump dead animals and antelopes Then there's no reason that a man and another man can't elope But if you feel like I feel, I got the antidote Women, wave your pantyhose, sing the chorus, and it goes—

[Verse 2] Will Smith don't gotta cuss in his raps to sell records (Nope) Well, I do, so fuck him and fuck you too! You think I give a damn about a GRAMMY? Half of you critics can't even stomach me, let alone stand me "But Slim, what if you win, wouldn't it be weird?" Why, so you guys could just lie to get me here? So you can sit me here next to Britney Spears? Shit, Christina Aguilera better switch me chairs So I can sit next to Carson Daly and Fred Durst And hear 'em argue over who she gave head to first Little bitch put me on blast on MTV "Yeah, he's cute, but I think he's married to Kim, hee-hee" I should download her audio on MP3 And show the whole world how you gave Eminem VD (Agh!) I'm sick of you little girl and boy groups All you do is annoy me, so I have been sent here to destroy you And there's a million of us just like me Who cuss like me, who just don't give a fuck like me Who dress like me; walk, talk and act like me And just might be the next best thing, but not quite me

[Chorus] 'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up? 'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up?

[Verse 3] I'm like a head trip to listen to, 'cause I'm only givin' you Things you joke about with your friends inside your livin' room The only difference is I got the balls to say it in front of y'all And I don't gotta be false or sugarcoat it at all I just get on the mic and spit it And whether you like to admit it, I just shit it Better than ninety percent of you rappers out can Then you wonder: "How can kids eat up these albums like Valiums?" It's funny, 'cause at the rate, I'm going, when I'm thirty I'll be the only person in the nursing home flirting Pinching nurse's asses when I'm jacking off with Jergens And I'm jerking, but this whole bag of Viagra isn't working In every single person there’s a Slim Shady lurking He could be working at Burger King, spittin' on your onion rings Or in the parking lot, circling, screaming, "I don't give a fuck!" With his windows down and his system up So will the real Shady please stand up And put one of those fingers on each hand up? And be proud to be outta your mind and outta control And one more time, loud as you can, how does it go?

[Chorus] I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up? 'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up? 'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up? 'Cause I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady All you other Slim Shadys are just imitating So won't the real Slim Shady please stand up Please stand up, please stand up?

[Outro] Ha ha, I guess there's a Slim Shady in all of us Fuck it, let's all stand up!

1, 4, 6 for Raihan and Piers!

1: Aborted Declaration of Love: How long did it take for you to finally confess to your F/O? How did it go? Were there several attempts, or was it just The One?

Raihan: Raihan was just The One, at Hulbury, in a sunset where he and I pulled each other's hearts out and kissed, which rekindled our old romance from college.

Piers: I'll let you in on a little secret: Piers has tried to confess to me several times but bailed out at the last minute because he just saw my smile and his brain went "brrrrrr". The poor man is insecure and has many self-esteem issues, he sometimes thinks he can't ever be loved. That was until Piers was invited by Raihan to a party with the other Gym Leaders and everyone got a bit tipsy, which led to a little game of 7 Minutes In Heaven. Lo and behold, Piers and I get chosen to go in and, well:

Me: *in love with Piers, completely silent, blushing my head off, incapable of making eye-contact* Piers: *blushing, too* So… Can't remember when was the last time I played this… Me: *mumbling* You don't like me, do you…? Piers: Pardon me? Me: *more clearly, saddened* Y-you don't like me… Right? Piers: *confused* What makes ya say that? Me: *sad sigh* It's the way you look at me, the way you act with me, how you're always so cold. It's like you're perpetually annoyed with me. L-look, I don't remember doing anything bad to you but, if I did, then I'm sorry! Piers: Eh… Pardon me, love, but that's just my face. Nothin' personal, I swear.

Me: You're just saying it… Piers: No, I ain't. In fact, I… I admire ya. You're one of the realest trainers I've ever met, girl. Not just trainer, the realest person, too. You're so forward and filterless when ya speak, ya don't mince words, ya always speak what's on your mind without one single shit to what others might think and ya don't think twice before dumpin' an asshole for bad-mouthin' ya. A-and you're a good roaster, there's that, too.

Me: *Am familiar with his brutal honestly, so I know he's telling the truth*

Piers: Look, girl, from what you're tellin' me, I'm the one who hurt ya and… *Blushing* Well, I didn't mean to hurt ya feelin's, I shoulda given that more attention. So, for makin' ya feel like less, I'm sorry. Me: You don't have to apologise for that, b-but there was no way to communicate that. What was I supposed to do? Just go over to you and go "hey, your coldness and stoicism is hurting my feelings!"?! Piers: *laughs heartily* Oh Arceus! *smiling while looking at me* Ahhh, there ya go again with the forwardness, so cute heh heh~ Me: *looks at him blushing, heart skips a beat* Excuse me…? Piers: *smile falls, blushes more* W-wot…?

Me: …You just called me cute

Piers: *stutters, averts eyes* U-uh, shoot, it's pretty damn tight in here, isn't it? I-I think it's gettin' kinda hot- Me: But hey, *cups his cheek with my palm, making him look at me*

Piers: !!!! *blushing RED*

Me: *Baby Doll Eyes activate* Thanks for letting me know of all this, Piers, for being honest with me, for being so forward. It made me feel better about this :3 A-and I think I would like to talk to you more.

Piers: *thinking* Good Arceus, beat still, my heart… *Speaking, desperately trying to hide his fluster* T-talk more, huh? About what?

Me: Whatever you'd like. Uhm, music? You know, since you you're a rocker and all :3

Piers: Sure, uhhhh… What's your opinion on Queen?

Raihan: *opens door* Time's up, you two!

4: Almost Kiss: What was your first kiss with your F/O like?

Raihan: Our first kiss happened in my dorm room in college, before we had sex for the first time as friends with benefits. Raihan was so embarrassed, he even thought he was making things weird/creepy, but then I took the initiative and just went for it! We kissed many many more times that night~

Piers: So, after that 7 Minutes In Heaven incident, I get to attending a concert of Piers' for the first time. Later, he invites me over to his house, where we talk it all over, about how we feel and about Queen. We listen to A Night At The Opera together and I dance a lot, reliving those beautiful memories. I even confess to Piers I used to be hopelessly in love with Freddie Mercury, to which he says he doesn't blame me, that the man was an absolute legend and very attractive. I tell him it's not like that anymore right as Love Of My Life starts playing, that there's a another musician I like. Piers asks me what is he like and I just start describing him, leaning in more and more. Then Piers asks, one of his hands in my face, moving my hair away from my face: "Do you know if he likes anybody? Maybe a cute thicc autistic girl who loves cats, Queen and death metal?". I blush and tell him "I dunno...". He leans in closer and says "He does" and BAM! Big Damn Kiss!

6: Bodyguard Crush: How does your F/O make you feel safe?

Outdoors, Raihan always walks in front of me, holding my hand and calling his Pokemon out if necessary. Will shield/protect me, it's part of his instinct.

Indoors, Raihan will basically drown me in his huge form in a spooning position in bed, whispering sweet nothings to me. I love it so much because he's just so big~

Piers always goes out with me for whatever. If he can't come, he makes his Pokemon accompany me. Obstagoon is such a big cuddle bear and he ADORES me, so he's always pleased to accompany me during me going out for groceries or something.

Indoors, he sings to me and keeps me in his arms, praising and reassuring me when I cry. He says he'll never judge me or belittle my feelings.

- what your muse’s name is in mine’s phone

'Ari.' "Nothin' special I guess pretty much everyone uses 'his nickname for my sister like Pops and Uncle Mikey. I guess Ariel's kind of hard ta make a nickname outta less I start call her El? which I might jus' do mostly ta annoy her cause I think she be generally annoyed if I jus' randomly call her El with explation and act 'ike I didn' do it just cause I can." Summer thinks a moment "Yeah I think I will do that do actually. "But I couldn' say Ariel as a kid so callin' her Ari was the closest for me. So I been callin' her Ari ever since." - what your muse’s picture is in mine’s phone

[image description] Ariel poking out from the water, with Summer looking down from the dock she was sitting on. Acting as look out mostly. So Ariel could swim around more openly with out a worry. Every so often Ariel would pop back up with something she found or somthin' Ariel threw in. It was a game for them. Summer ended up snapping a photo when Ariel popped up because she just likes how happy her sister seems to be just getting to swim with out having to worry about humans well also having fun with Summer.

"Funny 'nough cause of my pop's i'm not the best swimmer. So I tend to jus' hang on the shore or the end of the docks when I go to the beach with Ari. I do love the ocean though, i 'ike that salty smell and splashing my feet in the water. But I know my sister loves it! an' I know if I go wit' her then no one can bug her an' it's not like when an adult gose cause she ain't being watched were jus' hanin' out 'hat different. Sides i'd be willing to bust my bass over some dicks head for tryin' to hurt my sister anyway. Why I 'ike this photo I 'ike 'hat she jus' able to chill and enjoy her so so much."

- what your muse’s ringtone is in mine’s phone

I Believe in What You Are by Nekokat

Running low, you're nickeling and diming Don't you know there's silver in the lining? The same old bars and beat up car, does it get mundane?

"I feel there might be better part of the song ta use but I got a reason here see. I ain't sayin' we got it the same I know i got freedoms she can' have for reasons that are dumb. But, we do got 'hings in common that I feel we both got lives 'hat aren' always gonna be smooth. We do both struggle wit' shit. Sure I know she looked forward to grow up to earn some more freedom too an' I worry she sometimes feels burden by just bein' a mutant. An' well I 'ike this song for her cause I dunno I jus' want Ari to see she ain't some mutant freak. I just want her to believe in herself so yeah I push her at times to do 'hings but cause I already do."

BOTTOM LINE REPRISE

I like that he calls Jack ‘Cowboy’ in this song as a little homage to the original, but (bc I saw Livesies first) I was so confused when I watched it at first.

So ik they only use the newsies to move sets bc they can go fairly unnoticed by the audience when they’re going on and off stage. But just the idea that even if they aren’t actually there with him, them still do everything for Pulitzer is a statement to me

Morris hopp of stairrrrrrs

"Ya just gonna take back lAta"

Gotta be honest, Something to Believe In makes me so irrationally angry. Their whole relationship feels forced and only there for the romance grab :)

I feel like they could've done a lot with Kath's character without making her fall for Jack

Like it makes sense that Jack would feel things for her. She represents this freedom he's never gotten to have. She helped get the newsies a better hand in life. Granted it isn't perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better. Not to mention all the newsies have the emotional range of a speck of dust.

Kath, on the other hand, seems very in tune with her emotions. She knows how she feels about Jack during Watch What Happens, and I personally don't think much changed between them between that and StBI.

I think it would've been far better to have Jack, this emotionally ignorant artist pining after Kath, the 'sure of herself' journalist helping make a better life for his family, despite the repercussions of going against her father, who was originally in it just to further her career but has grown to care for and love all of these kids.

Have I mentioned the projections?

I also haven't mentioned this at all, but I love the newsies that push in Jack's 'penthouse' and just sit at the bottom of the set pieces.

Bump

SHOVE

Also seeing Kath deck Jack right here (bc she doesn't know how to respond to him trying to kiss her) would be so much better than a kiss

Don't ask me why, just trust me

Their hug at the end of it though

IS IT NORMAL TO KNOW WHICH NEWSIE IS GOING UP THE STAIRS BY THEIR SILHOUETTE?

"We could hold a hoedown in here and no one would be the wiser"

"Hey!" "Hm?" "It's good to have you back again"🥰 "Shaddup."

Thanks For The Memories...(2)

Part 1 Here

Part 3 Here Part 4 Here Part 5 Here

"All right, let's shake on it`" the moljul grins holding out his hand to the little vixen.

There's nothing like doing business in a comfortable setting like his own home--

Where he had everything he needed at his disposal ~

Roxenne's been here a few times...but she doesn't remember a whole lot about each time...

That already was red flag.

The tiny paw holding to her pounding head was gripping at her hair...

While the other, the right, was trembling it's way over to those Hypnotic blue sparking fingers...

No....not today.

She let loose a little growl before slapping it away.

"I ain't shakin'on nothin'" she grumbled, "My end ain't been met."

The moljul clicks his tongue and retracts his hand before slapping back on a grin while he leans back in his seat.

Still so stubborn...

"Roxenne...baby, baby BAABYYY~" he coos out with a shrug, "You've been under me for what 70 years now? Roughly? Give or take?" He hums and folds his hands together.

"It's been a few decades I can tell you that...a d you're still holding onto that?" He sighs, "Don't you think it's time we updated the terms? You know what I can do for you now babe...you could get even better benefits now! Anything your pretty little broken heart desires could be yours! And all you have to do...is shake my hand~"

"I signed your piece of paper then, ain't that enough?"

"That's not the same...the handshake thing it's just...more personal ~"

Yeuh...and it makes me all yours, completely binding. I didn't fall yesterday...

She thought to herself with a look of defiance.

"What are you complaining about?" She questions, "You still own my body, Basically your glorified slave to do whatever you please with, may as well be the same."

Yeah...til the conditions are met...

Vox grumbles to himself.

I thought for sure by now I would have had it. Lure'em in with honey,give them a taste in trial...they usually get used to the luxury quickly! Become reliant --

But this one...

"Tch..."

"Isn't it exhausting? Putting in all this effort for something-- someone who probably even doesn't remember you at all anymore...let alone care?" He huffs, "Til Death due you part right, Doll? Well...Death parted you."

Her ears flicked as she loosened a snarl through her bared teeth.

This bastard raided minds...

He's got all the cards -- chances are he probably knows exactly who she'd looking for--

Wish she had known that then-- but she was still new...she didn't know how anything worked yet...

Their deal doesn't obligate him to tell her anything...just that he held responsibility for protecting her and doing what he can to help her be seen--

She thought, if she could be seen, on stage, on TV, on Multimedia...

Then eventually he'd see her too...

She hadn't thought about the after-- she had thought this would work a whole lot sooner--

Damn her naievete then...

Vox was right. At this point it may as well be pointless. She may as well just sell out...

But something... something inside her just won't let her. And as long as she keeps the deal as it stands...

She still had a small sliver of a chance out.

That's why he was pushing it so hard...

She was onto something. She had to be. Or he wouldn't be acting so pushy on changing the terms...true he's done it a few times before but there was usually long gaps of time between then a good few years...up to 10 before he asked again.

This is the most he's ascked at all...multiple times within a few months...

Something was coming undone somewhere...

His eyes narrowed sadly.

"I know what it's like...to love someone like that. Unconditionally, despite all the pain-- Don't torment yourself anymore babe."

Let me do that for you instead!

"...Time to let go. After all... it's not like anything's changed since then...so let's just go over the old one, come up with new terms, sign the new deal and--"

"I'm gettin' close."

Vox stops.

How close!?

"... You're no closer now than you were then... don't fool yourself."

"No I got it this time I just gotta match what I heard with--"

And there it was, the throb of searing pain again--

The glass once held full of offered wine now shattered a d dyed the floor under the glowing eyes of Vox.

"Roxenne!" A feigned concern as he lifted himself to hurriedly "Aide" her--

"My head, it's --"

"Must have had too much Wine..." He chuckled, "that's my bad babe...I didn't think this would be too strong for your tiny body..."

Too much wine?

But I don't remember hardly taking a sip--

But her thoughts had stopped. Once he placed that palm so gently on her head everything faded into static...

"Collapsed in my arms huh?" He chuckled, "That's enough talk today..."

"Time to Rest..."

To be continued (?)

kiki i went to denny’s yesterday and i thought of us and our 2D boyfriends as i drank my shitty coffee <3

ᴏɴ ʙᴏɴᴅ

Jess, I started writing this after you wrote Bail Out and then got stuck and then accidentally published it unfinished and then quickly set it as private so I wouldn't lose it. I had to go digging, but I have finished it in lieu of this ask 🤍

You and Reigen get arrested for fighting in a Denny's parking lot at 4 AM. After your friends graciously bail you both out, you somehow wind up back at fucking Denny's.

Implied f!reader but no pronouns mentioned. I headcanon this gag trope that Reigen talks about his job and Mob and Dimple and such, but every time his s/o comes around, they just so happen to leave or get drawn into some other ordeal. Takes place before the divine tree arc. I guess in some kind of way this could be considered a fluff piece.

"I can't believe they let us back in here," you grumble as you huddle yourself in the corner on the booth, trying to keep as far away from the intolerable blonde man sitting on the same side as you. Your friend/saving grace/one true shining beacon of hope that the world is a good place sits across from you next to her boyfriend, who is barely more tolerable than your own, but at least he hasn't gotten you arrested.

"Honey, we see someone pull a gun out in here at least once a week. Your little lovers quarrel in the parking lot ain't nothin'," the waitress says as she fills the coffee cups around the table, completely numb to the fuckery of overnight diner shifts.

"Did you happen to get this one punching him in the face on camera?" Your friend's boyfriend asks as he gestures towards you, earning him a jab to the ribs.

"Oh please, they're old news on Tokkipon," the waitress says before leaving the table. You cringe at the mention of the infamous account that posts submitted photo and video highlights of your prefecture's notorious trashy behavior. You hope she's right. It was less than 5 hours ago when you were hauled away in the back of a cop car, throwing over-exaggerated looks of disgust at Reigen who was making stupid taunting faces at you through the window of the separate patrol car he was in.

"Already at 300-thousand views!" The tall guy across from you exclaims with his phone in hand. Your friend sheepishly peeks the screen, though she at least tries to act disinterested for your sake.

"Hmmm," Reigen muses and you roll your eyes, knowing exactly how the gears of his mind work. "I could use this exposure to boost my brand."

You slap your hands on the table and groan.

"I have to pee. Move."

Though you don't give him the chance, climbing over him and purposely stomping on his leg as you exit the booth. You don't actually need the bathroom, just need to get away from him. Your friend quickly excuses herself to follow you - the law of women forbidding her from allowing you to travel to the bathroom alone. That, and she's eager to hear what went down. The only thing you had said when you called was, "I'm in jail. There's several wads of cash in my underwear drawer at home if you need it. Plan to bail for two."

"Are you okay?" She asks as soon as the swinging door closes behind you. You do a quick scan to make sure no one else is in the stalls before you rant.

"Well, I have assault and battery on my record now. I'm dogshit tired. I met some of the saddest, roughest women I've ever encountered in my life in the holding cell. And I don't think Reigen and I can recover from this. But, yeah. I think I'm more okay than most people would be," you say, honestly too exhausted to really feel much of anything except acceptance.

"He didn't fight you back? Did he?"

"Nah, there was a cop in the parking lot who saw the whole thing and came running over."

"Then why did Reigen get arrested too?"

"Well the cops were just gonna take me, but he kept saying things to piss me off. He was so irritating and persistent that they decided to take him in as well for interfering with their duties because he kept interrupting," you explain as you make your way over to one of the sinks. You catch your reflection, looking quite disheveled and you make your best attempt to smooth down your hair.

"What even got you two in it in the first place?"

You stay silent with your lips pressed into a tight line.

"Don't tell me-"

"It's the fucking broccoli!" You lament, voice bouncing off the tiled bathroom. At first you thought it was funny, like an inside joke between you and Reigen that he had anything to do with skyscraper vegetable incident. But between that, and the mysterious Mob that always seems to leave right before you come around, as well as some other fishy circumstances that he blames on spirits, you wonder if the jokes are just him playing you for a fool.

"How dumb does he think I am? I get that his job is all about bullshitting, but to think he can try and bullshit me too? Fuck him and all his stupid psychic bullshit and his stupid little imaginary friends. It's all made up! Everything! It just makes me think, what else could he be making up as well? Is he insane, or just an asshole? Or both? And yet he makes me feel like I'm insane and an asshole! Why do I even like him?"

"I mean, do you have any other explanation for the giant broccoli other than a psychic phenomenon?" Your friend tries to reason. Bless her heart.

"It's obviously a government experiment in trying to solve world hunger," you huff, feeling quite confident in your conclusion. You had scoured enough tinfoil forums to be convinced of the theory.

"It's a giant broccoli in the middle of our city! You can't come at it with logic like that! Just like you can't logic your way around being in love with him."

"You take that back!" You gasp, horrified despite the truth to all her points. "I only love you, not that weasel out there."

"Who? My weasel or yours?" She jokes, and you manage a chuckle at the burn to her own lover.

"You two are cute. Wish Reigen and I could be- could've been more like that," you sigh. In another life where you had a better temper and he knew how to be serious for one second, then maybe.

"Aw, don't talk like that! I'm sure you'll be okay after some mediocre pancakes and bacon," she assures you.

"Nothing like a Grand Slam to cover up my abuser status." It's only a half-joke that does little ease the weighty feeling in your chest. If Reigen had been the one who punched you, you certainly would not be sharing coffee and breakfast with him.

"Quit it! You're not a monster! His teeth aren't even loose!"

You accept it for now, too tired to make any argument against her. Your rough reflection seems to stare back at you with condescending pity, and you accept that too with another sigh. You exit the bathroom with your friend in tow, feeling a little weird and anxious about going back to the table and having to sit next to the man who you'll probably be seeing for the last time. However, something else makes you stop in your tracks when you catch sight of your table.

"What's wrong?" You friend asks as she peeks around your shoulder.

"They're," you feel your skin go cold, "getting along."

Your friend laughs and keeps walking, seemingly delighted at the sight of the two men excitedly showing each other their phone screens. You, on the other hand, can't find the joy in the budding friendship between her boyfriend and your....boyfriend, for now. Despite the headache forming behind your eyeballs, you make your way over. Reigen gets up to let you back in to your side of the booth. You can feel his eyes on you as you cast your sight down and to the side, ignoring the tightness in your chest at knowing his stare doesn't hold the harshness you deserve.

Thankfully, the food arrives as soon as you settle back in, distracting you and everyone else with it's bare minimum quality. You imagine it beats whatever they're serving in jail though, and you graciously eat up the overcooked eggs paired with undercooked hash browns. Though mid-chew, you see Reigen's hand come creeping over from the side and onto your plate to pilfer a piece of your bacon. Quickly, you snatch his wrist in your hand and whip your neck to glare at him.

"I swear, if you know what's good for-" You cut yourself off, finding yourself nearly snarling at him and everyone at the table staring at you in anticipation. It's the first time you're able to look him in the eye since you got out. He's looking at you with the same old beady black eyes, amused at your reaction. Something about it makes your face go hot and your heart feel like it's going to tear in two. Not wanting to cause another scene, you huff out your nose in defeat.

"Whatever, take it. They slice it too thin anyway," you grumble and let him go. This is probably the last time you'll be sitting with him like this, the least you can do is let him have some shitty break-up bacon. You can sense his eyes still on you when you go back to your eggs that had gone cold all too quick. He grunts and eats the bacon, though with less enthusiasm than he usually has for food.

The rest of the meal is fairly quiet save for your friend's boyfriend trying to break the mood by messing with her food and making awful puns. They really are cute, you think. As much as you try to suppress it, it makes you envious. You wonder if there was ever a time when you so carefree and relaxed in your feelings for Reigen. It hurts your head too much to think about.

You pay the bill as a small gesture of thanks to the other couple, though you insist you owe them quite a few more treats to some place a little more upscale. Perhaps a giftcard to a steakhouse since this is the first and last double date you'll be on for a while.

The back middle seat keeps you separated from Reigen during the ride to drop you off. You thought he'd feel meters and meters away, but he feels exactly 18 inches from your side, awkwardly distanced yet not far enough. The drive is mostly wordless, everyone in the vehicle quite tired from the wedge in their regular schedules, though Reigen gives directions to drop him off at his office. It's mere minutes away, just a few turns and one red light, and all too soon the car is stopped outside the familiar building.

He gets out, and you hesitate, unsure if you should get out too.

"What are you doing? Go!" The two in the front both encourage you as they squish together to look at you through the rearview mirror.

"I-" You stop whatever excuse you had and sigh as you unbuckle. "Fine. Going."

Before you close car door behind you, you poke your head back in and look at your friend. "If you ever get arrested for punching him," you gesture at the man in the passenger seat, "I won't bail you out because I'll also be in jail for punching him."

"Love you too," she says as her boyfriend gives you a wary smile. "Now go! I want to go back to sleep!"

Your heart thumps when you close the door for good and watch as they drive off. Reigen waits for you at the door to his office, leaning against the wall and lighting up a cigarette between his lips.

"I thought you were quitting," you say, finding the words easier than you thought you would.

"I think I deserve one," he retorts after exhaling the first drag. You hate it, mostly because you hate how good he looks doing it.

You sigh for the hundredth time this morning, closing your eyes and wringing your hands a bit as you prepare to say what you need to.

"I'm sorry."

"I forgive you."

His response is so fast that it feels anticlimactic. You had been dreading a painful, drawn out silence, but instead he just gives his forgiveness like it's nothing. But it's not nothing. Your heart squeezes, and finally the wear and exhaustion of this whole fiasco comes crashing down on you.

"I- I don't want to break up," you choke out in a wobbly voice, with big fat stinging tears welling up in your eyes that don't even need you to blink to spill over.

He drops the cigarette and pushes himself off the wall, rushing to grab you by the shoulders.

"Who said anything about breaking up?!" He asks, sounding a little frantic.

Your shoulders shake as you fight to hold back the sobs, eyes and teeth clenched in a futile attempt to keep you from completely coming apart.

"I hurt you! I-It's not right. I don't- I don't deserve you. You don't d-deserve that," you snivel, barely registering his hands on you. You can't bear to look at him, and hang your head low so the tears can hopefully fall on the ground instead of down your cheeks.

"We can talk about it at least. Besides, you have a ways to go before you can throw an effective Anti-Esper Punch™," he says, and you can't tell if he's teasing or being serious.

"Did you just say the tradem- Nevermind. This doesn't make sense. Nothing is making sense," you lament, taking a step forward and knocking your forehead on his shoulder. "I just wanna go to sleep and pretend nothing happened. But we can't do that. And I don't think I can trust you to be serious with me, and I can't trust myself not to be frustrated with you."

You don't expect him to move his arms around you and pull you into him. You're not the type of couple for such affection, especially here on the open sidewalk where people can see that there's obviously some kind of scene going on. But you're exhausted and you slump against him, squeezing your arms around his middle right back and let your tears soak his white button down that's far more wrinkly than usual. Part of you fears that this will be your last time holding him so close.

However, he speaks and brings you to a place that feels like home.

"I am serious with you. Why else would I get myself arrested?"

You finally look up at him, whipping your chin upwards so you can get a good scan of his face. Despite your eyes swelling, they open wide when you see nothing but earnest in his expression.

"Y-You mean-? On purpose?!" You stutter.

"Well, yeah. Getting arrested sucks. I wasn't gonna make you go through that by yourself," he says simply.

Your heart squeezes. More tears fall from your eyes as you wrap yourself all too tightly around him, crying into his neck, "Stupid! Idiot! I- I can't stand you! Absolute scum of the earth! Why would you- For stupid dumbass me!? You're so-!"

"You're welcome." You feel him laugh at you, one hand brushing at your back affectionately.

At this point, you don't even know if you can say what you really mean without drawing concern. Your throat constricts, but you still manage to croak out a strained, "Thank you."

His other hand comes to rest atop your head, smoothing over your hair. Maybe one day you'll be able to be more open with your feelings, but for now, you say what you can by refusing to let go of him.

"Let's go inside. I'll keep business closed today. Though, if there is a spiritual emergency, I might have to address it," he tells you and pats you on the head.

Slowly, you loosen your hold on him and sigh through your stuffy nose the best you can.

"Still on about spirits even after-?"

You shift your head from his neck, pulling back and opening your eyes. You're so worn that you must be half asleep already. Or maybe you're starting to hallucinate from the lack of sleep. You give your eyes a testing squeeze before popping them back open and blinking a few times to clarify your visions, but-

"Reigen," you say slowly, "there's some ugly green thing hanging around by your head."

"Oh, so now you can actually see me and you call me ugly?!"

Yeah, you're definitely losing it. Or you owe Reigen another apology.
