ᑕᕼᗩᑭTEᖇ ᔕI᙭

It’s Stoner y/n x Felix Goodie Two Shoes. "There was something off about Felix in her mind. No one was that nice, that *good* without some sort of motive. But he's everywhere all at once, and she finds herself drawn to him in ways she didn't want. But she wouldn't fall for the cliché. Fuck clichés, they never work out anyway."

⚠️Minors do NOT interact with this au⚠️

Warnings: Smoking, sex is mentioned.

They all sat around in the clearing, giggling and laughing at things people said. Y/n smiled at her group. She loved them all but her girls were her life.

Mae is the sweet, kind, Imma little crazy type. (She’s a lotta crazy but she don’t talk about that.) She’s the menace of the five. She also thrived off chaos. She is baby.

Kayla was the mom of the group. She became the one everyone went to when something happened. She’s kind but she’s also momma when it comes to her cubs.

Cassi was the dad of the group. She’s super overprotective of her girls. Never one to back down from anything. Her babies come first.

Then there’s Jess. Jess was the goofy one. Also, baby’s baby. Jess thrives off Mae’s madness and they’re two peas in a pod when they’re together.

Y/n met Mae first. Mae was putting frogs in the library with the help of her two best friends, Wooyoung and San. They had maybe fifty in the library by the time Kayla came into play. Kayla pulled out a spray bottle and started spraying the three. Mae simply stuck her tongue out at Kayla and told her to “fuck me”. Exact words too.

Y/n met Kayla after she got the situation figured out. “I’m so sorry about them. They’re a handful and a half. I found them in middle school and have never been about to get away.” Y/n didn’t want to tell her that she thought the idea Mae had was fun. That she would have joined if they had asked.

Next was Cassi. She met most of the others(boys) before she met Cassi. Cassi was in the bathroom, smoking a joint when Mae pulled y/n into the bathroom with her. “Cassi, hey. Share.” Mae made grabby hands and Cassi handed it to Mae. Mae took hit and took a deep breathe. She held out the joint to y/n and she took it and did the same thing. Soon the three were giggling with each other about nonsense.

Jess was the last one y/n met. Y/n had went to Chan, a friend of hers who sells her weed, and she was there hanging out with him. “Y/n, this is Jess. Jess, this is y/n.” Chan smiled brightly and Jess waved at y/n. She held the joint out to y/n and smiled. Of course y/n wasn’t gonna turn that down. They started talking and soon became close friends. Then y/n let Jess meet Mae and the chaos got ten times worse.

Wooyoung had his arm around Mae’s waist as they sat in the ground. Y/n had her head in Mae’s lap, laying down as she looked up at the sky. Jess was on the other side of Mae. Kayla had Mingi and Seonghwa next to her. Cassi and Hongjoong were sitting next to each other. Yeosang sat there next to Mingi and Yunho. “Come on man. Relax. They aren’t gonna bite you.”

“I mean. They might not but she will.” Y/n pointed up to Mae. Mae looked down at her and made the biting motion.

“I bite it, so it’s mine.” Mae smirked down at y/n. Y/n laughed at her.

“I’m yours?” Y/n raised an eyebrow at Mae, who nodded and kissed the fingertip of the finger y/n was holding up.

It’s been a minute since they’ve hung out with this. Just vibing with each other as they all smoked. “How you all gonna come smoke and not invite us?” They looked up and saw Chan. Jisung and Changbin were behind him smiling.

“Stop complaining and sit down.” Jess told the three. She had been friends with them the longest due to her being best friends with Jisung. Jisung sat next to Jess and the other two sat down next to him.

Mae pulled Jess closer to her and kissed her cheek. “Mine.” Mae glared at Jisung. She knew how he was and she knew he slept with anyone who would say yes. Everyone knew what he was. A fuck boy.

“Y/n. Why do you hate Felix so much, bun?” Y/n turned and looked at Jess. She had a sad look in her eye and y/n hated that look.

“I just, I don’t like that always happy front he puts on.” She mumbled lowly. Mae sighed and tan her fingers through her hair.

“Back in Highschool, we had a friend name Kelly. She was sweet as pie and didn’t have a mean bone in her body. Until she started dating San. She was so sweet around us when he was there and then did a complete one-eighty when he wasn’t. We figured it was just a face to get to San. Thankfully he blamed his best friends over the girl. She was vile and mean. We were all super close too and after San broke up with her, the first thing she did was find the guy y/n liked at the time and claim him. Literally.” Mae grumbled the last part.

“She was honestly super sweet. She tried asking me out first but I told her no. So she ran to San and San liked her. The sweet her. I record her being mean to the girls one day and sent it to San. Game over after that. She’s still a bitch to this day.” Wooyoung chimed in.

“I beat the shit out of her. With mommy permission of course.” Cassi smiled brightly, the joint burning in her hand.

“So Mae’s being added to the game, right?” Jess smirked, as she caught Mae’s eyes.

“Game?” Chan asked the girl.

“Yeah. We have a game going on. Whoever catches a couple having sex has to take the one that caught them out to eat.” Y/n chimed in. She was still in Mae’s lap.

“I mean, if you find them “doing the naughty” as Mae says, then yes.” Kayla laughed as she took the joint from Mingi.

“I’ll take you all out of eat any day of the week if it means I can fuck this girl wherever I want.” Wooyoung smirked. Mae pushed his face away from her and she giggled.

“Please don’t. I’m already scarred by those two.” Y/n pointed at Cassi and Hongjoong.

“Awh bun. If you wanna join all you gotta do is ask.” Mae smiled down at her and winked.

“Bunny, leave bun bun alone.” Kayla warned.

“Fine fine. I’m sorry. Offer still stands though.” Mae leaded her head on Wooyoung’s shoulder.

This was what family was. Everyone relaxing and enjoying themselves. This was what y/n loved the most. Being with everyone and smoking with them. Laughing and joking about it. About life. Enjoying the people who know who cares.

STEM Romances: A reading list

Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood

Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project - a literal dream come true - Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward. Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school - archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away. But when her equipment starts to go missing and the staff ignore her, Bee could swear she sees Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas... devouring her with those eyes. The possibilities have all her neurons firing. But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there's only one question that matters: What will Bee Königswasser do?

The Hookup Plan by Farrah Rochon

Successful pediatric surgeon London Kelley just needs to find some balance and de-stress. According to her friends Samiah and Taylor, what London really needs is a casual hookup. A night of fun with no strings. But no one—least of all London—expected it to go down at her high school reunion with Drew Sullivan, millionaire, owner of delicious abs, and oh yes, her archnemesis. Now London is certain the road to hell is paved with good sex. Because she’s found out the real reason Drew’s back in Austin: to decide whether her beloved hospital remains open. Worse, Drew is doing everything he can to show her that he’s a decent guy who actually cares. But London’s not falling for it. Because while sleeping with the enemy is one thing, falling for him is definitely not part of the plan.

My Mechanical Romance by Alexene Farol Follmuth

Bel would rather die than think about the future. College apps? You’re funny. Extracurriculars? Not a chance. But when she accidentally reveals a talent for engineering at school, she’s basically forced into joining the robotics club. Even worse? All the boys ignore Bel—and Neelam, the only other girl on the team, doesn't seem to like her either. Enter Mateo Luna, captain of the club, who recognizes Bel as a potential asset—until they start butting heads. Bel doesn’t care about Nationals, while Teo cares too much. But as the nights of after-school work grow longer and longer, Bel and Teo realize they've made more than just a combat-ready robot for the championship: they’ve made each other and the team better. Because girls do belong in STEM.

Mistakes Were Made by Meryl Wilsner

When Cassie Klein goes to an off-campus bar to escape her school’s Family Weekend, she isn’t looking for a hookup—it just happens. Buying a drink for a stranger turns into what should be an uncomplicated, amazing one-night stand. But then the next morning rolls around and her friend drags her along to meet her mom—the hot, older woman Cassie slept with. Erin Bennett came to Family Weekend to get closer to her daughter, not have a one-night stand with a college senior. In her defense, she hadn’t known Cassie was a student when they'd met. To make things worse, Erin’s daughter brings Cassie to breakfast the next morning.

Okay, I was just thinking about Cassie, and yes, I know her childhood was messed up and probably would have turned out better if her mom was a better person. That being said, I still feel like Lexi had every right to write that play about her.

1. It’s not like Cassie wasn’t warned about her behavior.

Yes, I know she seeks validation from men because her dad abandoned her, but it’s not like she had no one to correct her behavior. Her friends (especially Maddie), her sister, and even her mom straight out told Cassie the road she was going down wasn’t a good one but Cassie straight out refused to listen to them. I would have been more forgiving if maybe her mother enabled this behavior, but her mom even warns her not to get pregnant, something that happens anyways. If Cassie had taken 5 MILLISECONDS to consider what everyone around her was saying and tried to change, Lexi probably would have been more forgiving. Remember, it’s not like Lexi made up any lies about Cassie, she’s tired that her sister, who’s had an abortion and slept with her best friend’s ex, is more popular than her just because she’s “pretty”. No, Lexi was not ENTIRELY in the right, but when you look at her sister, who is CONSTANTLY in the wrong, I’d say she was somewhat justified.

2. Her abortion is barely touched on

If it was explained that Cassie’s abortion was a reason for her self destructive behavior I would be a lot more sympathetic with her. But it’s pretty much glossed over. Gee, it’s almost like the writer and the producer of the show had this weird fetish with teen girls and didn’t want to give Cassie the time of day for any actual character development.

Oh wait-

3. Does this girl have any morals?

From saying her life is way worse than Rue’s to sleeping with her best friend’s ex and justifying it, Cassie has no morals. Brushing off Nate could have been the perfect moment for Cassie to realize that constantly being in relationships is not going to help her and she needs to take time to herself to become a better person. Or at the very least, Cassie could have dumped Nate instead of him dumping her.

4. Cassie fed into her demise more than Lexi did

Yeah, Lexi’s play may have been a bit of a jerk move, but honestly, it’s nothing compared to what the people who inspired her play have done. Firstly, Lexi at least had the decency to change her friends names. Yes, to us, it’s clear who they’re based off of, but to the rest of the school? Some people didn’t even realize it was based on Cassie and the others until Cassie made a scene ON STAGE and got Maddie pissed. Cassie then makes it worse by attacking the girl who was literally doing her effing job on stage, which of course got Maddie involved. If Cassie just sat down and kept her mouth shut until the show was over, people might have talked about the play for the remainder of the school year and maybe over the summer. Sure, Lexi would would have been known as the cool girl who wrote a play, but it wouldn’t have been as bad as her psycho sister leaping at another girl on stage. Cassie constantly does things to dig herself into a deeper hole.

Like I said, Cassie is a deeply flawed character who would have turned out better if she had better parents, or at least a better mother. But you can’t tell me that Cassie 100% did not deserve what happened

Review:

What happens when you have a one night stand with the hottest person you’ve ever met... only to find out that their your friend’s mom over breakfast the next day? Cassie Klein just wants to escape her school’s Family Weekend, so she goes to a bar thats a bit further away and has an amazing one night stand... and the next morning when her friend drags her to meet her mom.... who other is it than the hot older woman Cassie slept with the night before? Erin Bennett just wants to be closer to her daughter, after a messy divorce and focusing on her work she hasn’t really been into dating, so when she meets a cute younger girl at the bar she thinks why not? It’s only for one night... until she meets her the next day. Now what was suppose to be a one night stand between the two of them changes as Cassie finds herself spending the holidays with her friend and Erin. Both Erin and Cassie know that what happened between them can never happen again but the feelings and chemistry between them just keeps growing. Can they keep their feelings in check or are they willing to risk it all for love? This was such a cute and sexy story! I really enjoyed Erin and Cassie falling for each other and how they make their relationship work.

*Thanks Netgalley and St. Martin's Press, St. Martin's Griffin for sending me an arc in exchange for an honest review*

Last Call by Elon Green The Townhouse Bar, midtown, July 1992: The piano player seems to know every song ever written, the crowd belts out the lyrics to their favorites, and a man standing nearby is drinking a Scotch and water. The man strikes the piano player as forgettable. He looks bland and inconspicuous. Not at all what you think a serial killer looks like. But that’s what he is, and tonight, he has his sights set on a gray haired man. He will not be his first victim. Nor will he be his last. The Last Call Killer preyed upon gay men in New York in the ‘80s and ‘90s and had all the hallmarks of the most notorious serial killers. Yet because of the sexuality of his victims, the skyhigh murder rates, and the AIDS epidemic, his murders have been almost entirely forgotten. This gripping true-crime narrative tells the story of the Last Call Killer and the decades-long chase to find him. And at the same time, it paints a portrait of his victims and a vibrant community navigating threat and resilience. (True Crime: MLM, Gay)

What should have been a one-time fling quickly proves impossible to ignore, and soon Cassie and Erin are sneaking around. Worst of all, they start to realize they have something real. But is being honest about the love between them worth the cost? (Contemporary RomCom: WLW, Sapphic)

City of Shattered Light by Claire Winn As heiress to a powerful tech empire, seventeen-year-old Asa Almeida strives to prove she's more than her manipulative father's shadow. But when he uploads her rebellious sister’s mind to an experimental brain, Asa will do anything to save her sister from reprogramming—including fleeing her predetermined future with her sister’s digitized mind in tow. With a bounty on her head and a rogue A.I. hunting her, Asa’s getaway ship crash-lands in the worst possible place: the neon-drenched outlaw paradise, Requiem. Gun-slinging smuggler Riven Hawthorne is determined to claw her way up Requiem’s underworld hierarchy. A runaway rich girl is exactly the bounty Riven needs—until a nasty computer virus spreads in Asa’s wake, causing a citywide blackout and tech quarantine. To get the payout for Asa and save Requiem from the monster in its circuits, Riven must team up with her captive. Riven breaks skulls the way Asa breaks circuits, but their opponent is unlike anything they’ve ever seen. The A.I. exploits the girls’ darkest memories and deepest secrets, threatening to shatter the fragile alliance they’re both depending on. As one of Requiem’s 154-hour nights grows darker, the girls must decide whether to fend for themselves or fight for each other before Riven’s city and Asa’s sister are snuffed out forever. (Science Fiction: WLW, Sapphic, Bisexual)

My best friend and brother died so I’m gonna talk about it a lot, sorry!

The last movie we went to together (Rise of Skywalker) didn’t go great. But we both did what we do when we’re faced with disconnection from each other. I pulled away and he drank. We were both upset about the same thing, we just had different reactions.

We spent our lives feeling connected. Neither one of us knew how to handle it when that changed.

I have a strong capacity for connection. On the upside, it feels amazing, on the downside I’m very open to pain. So I’m overprotective of myself. Atom and I were the same in that way. I was just even more protective because I got to see him get hurt and I learned from it.

It’s crazy to think I’m still here without Atom, but it’s also crazy to think I spent almost 30 years of my life without Susie. Think of all the times I wished she had been there with me, to help her or get help from her, to teach each other that we both deserve better and can be loved and love safely.

It’s weird. It’s just like this chapter of my life is the “Alex and Susie chapter” and it just happened to overlap with the “Alex and Atom chapter.” Lucky me that they got to meet and coexist at the same time briefly. That’s technically amazing.

I feel a strong urge to be distracted today. Just constant distraction is all I want. I’m avoiding something.

I think it’s house shit. It’s the realization that I’ll end up living in that house again and Atom will never see it. He’ll never step foot in that house again. Never be at Thanksgiving. I won’t be able to talk to him about it. He’s the one I shared that house with the most and now it’s gonna be only mine. So weird.

Dad will never see it. Dad will never see me washing dishes in front of that window, just like him all those years ago.

I know I want to make the house mine, but it’s weird to realize it really won’t be that same house anymore. Not the house I grew up in. No more dad or Atom. Only I can carry on the memories I shared with the two of them. So weird.

I’m all for making it new and making it mine. But that means I have to say bye to the old house and I’m not quite ready for that. It’s good, this is what I should do, but I don’t feel ready. I guess I’ll have to manage.

And I’ll have to say bye to this apartment at the same time.

This has been hanging over me. A lot of endings. The end of this apartment. The end of the house being my mom’s house. That’s a horrible feeling that I hate that eats away at me and makes me want to avoid house shit even more.

And be patient. If you were moving into Susie’s grandmother’s house or something, you would be happy and grateful, but it would take some time to make it feel like your home.

I wish I never got rid of that couch. The couch Atom found in the trash, used for years and then gifted to me. I sat on the edge when Atom comforted me after I got upset about Cassie’s dad calling mom and I punched through the glass door. I slept on that couch for 6 months after Cassie and I stopped talking. It’s the couch I was on when I fell asleep on Cassie’s lap after my grandparent’s wake and she let me sleep there all night even though we were broken up. I spilled fake blood on that couch making movies with my friends. It made it all the way to Taber Street. Really wish I had kept it. It was a great couch.

I don’t want my nephews to grow up because they were just these little humans that I got to know with Atom. I think this house shit and camp and things getting more back to normal is really putting Atom on my mind. I’m just thinking of him more.

Being at a party at a house that we almost put an offer in for (the party at Susie’s friend Jess’s house), that definitely had an impact on me today. Stephan talking about having kids and two huskies. Future was on my mind. Just scary is all.

PASSENGER BEHAVIOR Watch out for “passenger behavior.” It’s when you behave as if you aren’t in the driver’s seat of your life but it’s all bullshit that you’re bringing onto yourself.

It’s this thing when I make myself a passenger in order to get the reward of connection, and when the expectations of my time as a passenger change, I get upset. But it’s kinda my fault for agreeing to be a passenger when I didn’t actually want to.

If I really were a passenger, I wouldn’t care what we do, but I obviously do care. I MAKE myself a passenger even though I don’t want to be one.

BODY SHIT Honestly the reason I can never feel okay with how I look is because of my gut and love handles. As long as I can see those, I won’t be satisfied. Remember that every time you wanna eat shit: you’re making yourself more “pear-shaped.” EATING JUNK = LOVE HANDLES!

LOSS I just feel a lot more loss in my future and fewer gains and I don’t have a lot of confidence in my ability to handle all that loss.

Life is loss, and I don’t believe in myself. So I idolize lone wolves, but I always love seeing people gain things and have things because that’s what I really want.

THE SUNSET MOMENTS You spend all this time trying to get to a moment where everything feels perfect and you know it’s the (or a) climax of your life, but that’s not how it works. You probably won’t know when your climax is. It could be a small moment that only seems super significant years later.

I knew walking up to Susie at that holiday party would be meaningful, but I had no idea how meaningful. I knew it meant a lot when Atom told me he still believed Susie and I were perfect for each other, I just didn’t realize how right he was. Time decides your sunset moments so you can’t chase them. In the mean time, chase what makes the most sense to you. Live authentically and if you’re lucky, you’ll be paying attention when some of those sunset moments happen.

So yeah, stop looking for the moment and make the moment instead. Figure out what you want your moments to be and try to make them that way.

AVOIDANCE A lot of my shit is avoidance. Odds are, I’m trying to avoid something. House stuff makes me think of the future and having to let go of the past.

In my mind, I think I always imagined I’d be making comics with Atom or at least working in a studio together like the early Image Comics days. If I ever was successful in movies, I always imagined Atom would be at least my assistant if not my partner. We literally talked about him being my assistant. Makes all that stuff less fun.

I always wanted to play or make something that Atom liked. A band, a song. I can’t do that anymore. These new sad realities are really bringing me down.

Babysitting Duty

Summary: while Scott and Clint are away on a mission, you and Wanda are stuck with babysitting duty

Pairing: Wanda Maximoff x Reader

Warnings: some harsh language

Word Count: 5,117

"Your asses had better not leave the yard, got it?"

"Please don't swear at the kids."

"They're being little shits!" You insisted.

Wanda glared at you from where she was sat on the couch, cradling two-year-old Nathaniel, who had fallen asleep in her arms a few minutes ago. You scowled back at her as you moved to the other seat, closer to the open window, so that you could see and hear Lila and Cassie running around in the backyard. Lila ducked into the shed for a moment, re-emerging with a soccer ball. She kicked it toward Cassie.

Clint and Scott had taken up an offer to go on a mission with Natasha across the country. You didn't pry as to why she needed them specifically. Laura was in Los Angeles visiting some family, meanwhile Maggie and Jim were taking a vacation in the tropics. That had left Scott and Clint in need of a babysitter, and you'd been volunteered for the job. Now, you and Wanda were stuck at Clint's farmhouse for a few days until Laura got back. You were only in charge of Cassie, Lila, and Nathaniel, with Cooper having gone to stay with a friend while his parents were out of town.

"Why don't you go put him down?" You suggested to Wanda, the scowl on your face replaced by a soft smile.

Wanda shook her head. She didn't even bother to stand, instead simply laying him down on the couch they were sitting on. He whined a little as he left her arms, but after she'd stroked his head a couple times, he settled as soundly as he had been. She stood and crossed the room, sitting down next to you. Your arm moved around her waist and she leaned against you, legs curling up to her chest. You kissed the side of her head as you glanced out the window quickly to check up on the girls.

"What do you think about what Tony said?" She asked quietly.

You turned to stare at her. Her light green eyes flickered up to meet your gaze. It put a smile on her face. Her hand reached for yours, taking it and intertwining your fingers. You played with her hand.

"One day."

After getting the babysitting gig, you hadn't exactly been ecstatic. You were an Avenger, not a babysitter. Anytime Clint and Scott weren't around to hear, you'd repeat those words to whoever was close enough to listen. Most of them got that. They thought the same. It's why everyone had tried so hard to avoid the two men for those few days. When you'd gotten stuck with it, Natasha had even gone so far as to laugh at you.

You were good at avoiding. You'd practiced it all your anti-social life. So, it wasn't your fault that you'd be assigned babysitter. It was Wanda's. Clint had managed to corner her one day. Their relationship was a strange one. He'd cared for Pietro, and Pietro had cared enough for Clint to give up his life for him. Now, the surviving Maximoff and the archer had some sort of bond. That bond had made it impossible for her to say no to babysitting the toddler that was named after her brother.

Stuck with two kids anyway, you figured you might as well take care of Cassie at this point. Once you'd been nominated babysitter, though, Tony had taken it upon yourself to never leave you alone. It seemed, for those few days after you'd agreed to take care of the kids, Tony was around every single corner. You wouldn't have been surprised to learn he had been using the security cameras to keep track of you, because no matter how hard you tried to hide from him, he was there.

He was teasing you relentlessly about your having to babysit. Unlike the rest of them, Tony wasn't teasing you because you, an Avenger, were stuck with a 16-year-old high schooler's job. He was teasing you because you were stuck at a nice little home in the country with three kids and your girlfriend. He insisted, every time he saw you, that this was going to be good practice for your future. Wanda had blushed furiously the first time he'd said it. You'd shooed him away.

As much as you hated dealing with the billionaire and his stupid smirk when he'd approach you to tease you about practicing for your own kids, you would deal with it. Wanda would always turn away with a tomato-red blush burning on her cheeks, and so you would always find a way to give her an escape to stick around and take Tony's taunting yourself. Mostly you just ignored him, but he was persistent if nothing else.

Tony had driven you absolutely mad with his stupid suggestive tone and heckling comments. That was undeniable. Sometimes, you even wanted to take him down to the ring just for a reason to drive your fist into his gut. But after a long day of work and having to hear him go on and on, you'd climb into your bed, or sometimes Wanda's, fall asleep for the night, and dream up the pictures that he'd painted into your head.

There were two or three kids. One of them was always a boy. You were just getting home from somewhere, and Wanda was in the backyard of your house, watching the children play. The boy would be with one of the other kids, but when you approached Wanda and slid an arm around her waist, he'd run up to you. You'd ruffle a hand in his hair, and he'd giggle, light green eyes casting up to look at you. He had Wanda's eyes. You'd reach down and pick him up, kissing his cheek as he continued to laugh.

"Hi, Momma," he'd say.

"Hello, Pietro," you would reply every time. "Were you good for your mom today?"

Then he would nod and squirm a little, desperate to get back to his brothers or sisters. You'd set him down on his feet and he'd dash back to the others. You would lean into Wanda, then, kissing her softly. She would kiss you back, just as gently and lovingly as she did in your waking life. No words would be exchanged as you guided her to the bench swing, pulling her close and smiling as you both turned to watch your children laugh and play together.

It was just a dream, and it was entirely Tony's fault, you were sure. He'd put the idea of a family into your head and now you couldn't get it out. You'd always known you wanted kids and, even though you might not have known her all too long, you knew it was Wanda you wanted them with. She was your everything and you wouldn't want anything without her. Your future didn't exist without Wanda Maximoff.

"I've seen those dreams you've been having."

That honestly didn't surprise you too much. She'd seen your dreams on occasion. You'd learned that when you'd woken up absolutely drenched in sweat one night after a particularly inappropriate dream involving a particular witch. She'd watched your eyes open and immediately straddled your waist, promising to make your dream come true. You hadn't gone back to sleep that night, and it was clear as day that she had seen every single detail of that dream.

She was a mind reader. It wasn't hard for her to see just what was going on in your head; conscious or not. So, as you slept, she was able to see those images of you and she with your cozy little house and little Pietro smiling up at the both of you. It didn't surprise you, but it did make you a little nervous to know she'd seen them. You didn't want to seem like you were rushing into things at a pace that she wasn't ready for. You would wait forever for her.

You'd talked about it with her before. It was nothing too serious. It had been a simple conversation, the two of you discussing where you thought you might be five or ten years down the road. When you'd talked about it, the two of you hadn't been dating yet. You'd just been friends, both wanting to be more. It had been a quiet night, and you'd wanted to take her mind off Pietro, who had died only four months earlier.

Wanda pictured her future as a quieter life. She wanted a nice home on a quaint little street where she wanted a family, someone to love and maybe a couple of kids down the road. She'd told you she wasn't sure yet, if she wanted to continue being an Avenger. She hadn't always been fond of the sort of action you guys saw, but she knew she had the power to help people. Her heart was good. She couldn't just ignore that fact.

Your vision had been a little different. You were absolutely sure that you wanted to continue being an Avenger. You were a hero through and through. You couldn't imagine a life where you weren't doing what you did now: keeping people safe. You wanted to stay in New York, but maybe moving out into the suburbs in the outskirts of the city. You, too, wanted to start a family someday. Avenging could be a day job, you'd assured.

Then you'd gotten together. You'd admitted your feelings, you'd gone on some dates, and quickly, you'd fallen deeply in love with her. That dream of a future was still one you had: An Avenger by day and a wife and mother by night. At some point, though, that woman you saw yourself having that family with had become Wanda. Suddenly, you couldn't see it any other way. For a long time, you'd kept that from her. Now, though, she knew, and you were glad she did.

"What do you think of it? The dream," you asked carefully.

Wanda didn't answer right away. Her eyes had cast out the window to watch Cassie and Lila run through the yard, passing the ball between each other before Cassie turned and kicked it into the net. They both cheered loudly, raising their arms in the air, smiling widely, and high fiving. Their excitement made Wanda smile too. Her gaze turned back away from the yard and back to you, searching your face carefully. You let her study every detail of your eyes.

"I think it's beautiful."

Any life with her would have been beautiful. Anything with her was beautiful. You were absolutely sure Wanda Maximoff was the most beautiful thing in the world and there was nothing that could have changed your mind. The Avengers teased you sometimes. Natasha had teased one day, that you looked at your girlfriend as if she were the most exquisite piece in an art museum. You'd only assured her that no piece of art ever held a candle to the Sokovian.

"Would you..." You trailed off and took a breath, trying to figure out just what you were asking. "Would you consider it one day?"

Wanda didn't hesitate a millisecond. "I don't have to consider it. One day, Sweetheart."

That warmed you to your very soul. You put your hands on your cheeks and turned her face toward yours. You pressed your lips together, the feeling never failing to make your eyes flutter shut. You savoured the so familiar taste of her against your lips as you let your hands slide; one moved to the back of her neck to hold her close, and the other came to rest on her thigh. It wasn't a long kiss. It didn't need to be. It only took a few seconds to convey to her something words never could.

"How many?" She asked.

You laughed. "Two or three? What do you think, Baby?"

"Three," she hummed softly.

You couldn't believe that Tony was fucking right. Here you were with the woman you loved so dearly, babysitting your coworkers’ kids, and imagining having ones of your own someday. You had to admit, you did like it. They were a bit of a handful, that much was for sure, but you loved it. You loved watching their smiles, watching them play and laugh, and joining them in their fun and games. You loved seeing how Wanda would sit with them, cradle Nathaniel close, and read the girls bedtime stories. The thought of having this with her made your heart swell.

"Alright, where would we live?" You asked with a soft laugh.

"We'll stay near New York," she assured. "My big strong Avenger."

You laughed when she teasingly squeezed one of your biceps. You flexed a little, pressing the muscles against her hand. At this, the touches to your arm weren't so teasing. Her fingers traced the lines of the defined muscles that lay beneath your skin. You breathed out a quiet laugh, grabbing her hand and gently kissing against her knuckles. Her hand hesitated at your mouth as she ran the pad of her thumb across your bottom lip.

"Port Washington?" You offered. "Maybe a little way outside the city or in northern Jersey? I know you want to raise a family in a small town and New York City isn't exactly that."

She pressed her lips against your neck for a moment. "I love you."

You breathed out. "I love you, too."

She pulled away, moving to touch your knee instead. You put a hand over top of hers, turning to check on Cassie and Lila again. They'd taken to sitting in the grass, leaning against a tree trunk, and talking quietly. You weren't sure what about, but you were just glad that they seemed to still be having a good time. You slid Wanda's hand off your knee so that you could stand up.

"I'm just going to grab a snack for the girls," you kissed her cheek. "When I'm back, you can let me know if you've got any more ideas for this life of ours, huh?"

Wanda nodded.

You moved into the kitchen, opening up the pantry and putting together a couple of PB and Js, cutting them in half and setting them on the counter. You then mixed a few glasses of lemonade, put everything on a tray, and headed briefly back to the living room to hand one glass to Wanda, before heading out the back door. You whistled merrily, catching the girls' attention. They both smiled at your approach, and you settled into the grass beside them.

"For you."

They thanked you repeatedly, taking a plate and a glass each. You took your own glass, sitting back and sipping it as the cool breeze blew through your hair. You crossed your legs, watching their girls bite into their sandwiches. You tried to think back to what you'd been talking about at their age. You'd been in grade school and had often been in the schoolyard with your friends talking about boys. Well... they'd talk about boys and you would hesitate and make something up because you didn't know who the hell you liked.

"So, what are we talking about today, girls?"

"Lila was just telling me about a boy named Sam."

"Cassie!"

"What?" Cassie defended. "She's not gonna tell!"

You nodded. "Cassie is right, kid. I'm the best secret keeper probably ever."

Lila seemed to ponder this for a moment. It was a blatant lie, though. Every secret that was told to you was also told to Wanda, but it didn't go past there. You couldn't keep things from her. It was like she could pull anything from you with just a simple gaze from those light eyes. Even if you didn't tell her, she was a mind reader. Either she'd hear it from your lips, or she'd hear it running through your brain at one point or another.

Lila seemed to be contemplating this. "Okay. Well, there's this boy in my class. His name is Sam. I really like him."

"Oh, yeah?" You asked, sipping your lemonade. "So why don't you tell him that?"

"No! I can't tell him."

"Why not?" You scoffed. "What's the worst that could happen, Li? He either likes you back or he doesn't."

You'd always had trouble with your own advice. If you admitted your feelings to someone and they told you they didn't feel that same way, you felt awkward for months after that. But you were an adult. Lila was eleven. Even if kids these days were growing up way faster than you did, you knew that things were a lot more complex when you were a little more grown up. In a year or two, then she'd start realizing that.

"What about you, Cas? Any boys in your class you've got an eye on?" You winked.

Cassie didn't seem to find this very amusing though. Suddenly, it seemed, her sandwich wasn't very appetizing, and the lemonade had lost its sweetness. Her gaze moved to somewhere no one could meet it, locking to the ground as her fingers began playing absentmindedly with the grass. You tilted your head to the side curiously. You glanced over at Lila, but she didn't seem to know the reason for this either.

"Lila, could you give us a minute?" You asked the older of the girls. "Why don't you go see what Wanda is up to?"

Lila nodded and scampered off. She ran to the house and in the back door, and you watched in the window as she appeared beside Wanda. You saw her explaining something to the Sokovian, likely just trying to express that her friend was upset. You turned your focus to Cassie, who was busying herself by pulling a few blades of grass out of the ground. You didn't try to stop her, the fidgeting obviously calming her anxiety.

"What if..." She took a deep breath as she trailed off. "What if I think I like like a girl?"

Cassie Lang was ten years old. That's around the same age you started wondering what the other girls saw in boys. You hadn't realized as young as she did that you'd liked girls, but you knew something about you was different. At that age, you'd thought maybe something was wrong with you. It had taken you a few years to realize you weren't broken, just different. It had taken you even longer to realize that was okay.

You knew Cassie probably felt more comfortable asking one of her babysitters this question than anyone else. She trusted her parents and her stepdad, and she loved them, that much was clear. With them, though, she watched a man love a woman. With you, she watched you love Wanda the same way Scott loved Hope. She watched you do something she was feeling in herself. It made everything seem a little more normal and a little more okay. You knew that much from experience.

"Cas, look at me, Sweetheart," you said gently. Cassie looked up at you. "You can like whoever you want to like, and you can be whoever you want to be."

"But at school, all the girls like boys and I don't. Why don't I? I just want to be the same."

"Because not everyone is the same, and that's okay. You don't think there's anything wrong with me, do you?"

"No."

"No. And I love a girl. Isn't that okay?"

"Yeah."

Maybe it was a bit of a guilt trip, but it got Cassie to look up. You watched as her eyes travelled from you, to Wanda, and back. There was no longer any trace of nerves or anxiety on the young girl. It had instead been replaced by curiosity. It seemed your little pep talk had actually worked. She seemed more at ease after assurance that she didn't need to be normal. You knew that wasn't it for those nerves, you even got them yourself once in a while, but you were glad to have put her at ease for a while.

"Kiddo, are you going to talk to your mom or dad about this?"

As honoured as you were that you'd felt to be a safe person to come out to, you weren't really the person that she should be going to for support. Her mother and father would give her that. You didn't know Maggie well, but you knew Scott. He would be unconditionally supportive and wouldn't hesitate to reassure her if she ever felt like this again and if there were someone who didn't, he'd make sure to immediately remove that person from their life.

"I think I'm gonna talk to my dad when he gets home. Can you talk to him for me?"

"I can give him a little heads up, but you're going to have to be the one to actually talk to him."

She took a deep breath but nodded. "Okay."

You smiled proudly.

You sat with Cassie for a little while longer in that spot. Following your conversation, she seemed to be feeling better. She was eating and drinking again as she told you a little about this girl she was sweet on. You didn't comment too much, smiling and nodding along as she told you stories about the schoolyard. Soon enough you were once again trading places with Lila. The two girls resumed their gossiping in the grass, and you moved back to sit with your girlfriend once more.

When you sat down next to Wanda, glancing at a still sleeping Nathaniel as you moved, you immediately turned to the window. The two preteens had already regained that same calm expression they had been sporting earlier. Satisfied that they were both alright, now, you turned back to Wanda. She was watching you carefully, eyes flickering down to peek at the smile on your lips. You beckoned her to come back against you like she had been before you left.

"You and Cassie seemed to have quite the heart-to-heart," she hummed quietly as she leaned back against your side and your arm snaked around her.

"She confessed she might have a crush on a girl."

Wanda raised an eyebrow. "Yeah? Well, I see why you were a safe person to confess that to."

You chuckled and kissed the side of her head. "Yeah, I do, too. I gave her a little bit of reassurance before telling her she should really talk to Scott or Maggie."

Wanda nodded in agreement. She reached out to the table to grab the glass of lemonade you'd made for her, sipping it quietly. The cool glass pressed against your arm when she lowered it, sending a shiver throughout your body. She seemed to notice this, as she laughed, moving the cold cup up to your cheek. The condensation that coated it transferred onto your skin and you frowned, pushing her hand away. She laughed a little harder.

"So, what did you come up with?" You asked her. "I seem to remember asking you to come up with some more details."

"You did. So, I wondered what Pietro's siblings' names might be?"

You froze. That was from your dream. You knew she'd been seeing it, but you still got a little curious when she brought up the more minor details. You turned to look at her, curiosity burning in your chest. Pietro was her brother, not yours. You wondered briefly if she even wanted to name any children she might have in the future after the brother she'd lost.

"Pietro," you repeated softly. "Is that okay?"

"Fuck, Honey."

Wanda rarely swore, so when she did, you knew she was feeling something strong. You were assured it was a good feeling, though, when she grabbed you and pulled you toward herself roughly. Your lips connected and you felt the intensity in her kiss. You didn't dare be the one to pull away from this, letting her show you how she was feeling through the intimate touch. When she finally did, her hands were immediately in yours.

"Thank you. He meant the world to me and you mean so, so much to me, too and... thank you, Honey."

"You don't have to thank me, Baby. He deserves it," you assured, a hand on her cheek. "But did you have other ideas too?"

She nodded. "I did. We'll obviously discuss more when the occasion arises, right?"

"Right," you agreed with a laugh. "So?"

"I like the name Tommy. It's cute, don't you think?"

"I do think so," you hummed.

You don't know what it was, but something had you so drawn to her in this moment. You wanted to pull her close and never let her go. Granted, you wanted that most of the time. Right now, though, the thought of releasing her from where you had her flush against your side, her head resting so softly on your shoulder, made your heart feel a little weaker. As if she could feed that absolute need radiating off of you, she kissed your shoulder and put her hand into yours, squeezing tight.

"Any girls' names you like?"

Wanda stopped to ponder. "Violet."

"That's cute too," you smiled at the thought of your family. "You're pretty good at this, my dear," you paused for a moment. "So, Pietro, Tommy, and Violet Maximoff?"

She hesitated at hearing that. Her head moved off your shoulder, and you immediately missed the lack of pressure. You had to suppress a quiet whine as you glanced over at the curious eyes that were peering at you. You cocked your head to the side, in the movement, willing her to tell you what was going on inside her head. You felt as though her eyes could see into your very soul with the way she was watching you.

"Maximoff," she finally said.

"Yeah. I like it," you told her. "And doesn't my name sound so good with your last?"

You didn't even have to say the name aloud. Just hearing it in her own mind had a shiver running through her body- something you felt it against your own. She didn't have to say aloud, either, that she loved the idea. You knew she did. You both did. It was something that made you entirely hers. You were entirely hers. You belonged to Wanda Maximoff and her last name attached to your first would prove that to anyone.

"One day," Wanda said, repeating the words you'd spoken earlier. "One day you'll be my Mrs. Maximoff."

It was your turn to hesitate at those words. You were both talking about this as if it were inevitable. As far as you were concerned, it was. You couldn't even picture a life that didn't have Wanda in it. You didn't want to. You wanted to be her wife and live in a small house in the suburbs and raise children with her. You wanted all of it so bad you could hardly fathom it. You turned to her, making sure to catch her eyes.

"Did we just get engaged?" You teased.

You hadn't, but you had. All engagement was, was a promise to be each other's and to get married. There was no time limit on that. In the last little while, you'd promised that to each other. You had both promised each other this entire life that you could see laid out before you. Neither of you had been discussing it as if it were a possibility, but more as an inevitability. That sure sounded like a promise to you.

"I don't know," Wanda admitted. "We agreed we'd get married one day."

"Yeah," you agreed. "We definitely did."

Then you decided to make it less of a question as to what had or had not happened. You slid away from her and stood up off the couch. You took a knee on the floor, bringing her hand into yours. Your heart was thumping so loud in your chest that you had to wonder whether or not she could hear it from where she sat. Judging by the way her eyes widened, though, you thought that maybe her own heartbeat was drowning it out.

You didn't think this was how you'd do this. Sure, you'd many times thought about how you'd one day propose to Wanda. In none of those scenarios was she sitting on the couch in Clint's living room whilst Nathaniel slept ten feet away with Lila and Cassie's giggles floating in through the window. They were usually a lot more romantic than this. You couldn't find it in yourself to care. This was the moment. You could feel it.

"So let me clear up the confusion," you offered, eyes not leaving hers. "Wanda Maximoff, I cannot picture my life without this little suburban house and these sweet little kids and you, my love. I will walk to the ends of the Earth and back for you. I'd give you my heart and my soul in an instant if you wanted me to. Will you marry me?"

Wanda didn't seem to be able to find her voice. Her expression was one of shock. Her jaw had dropped a little, and her eyes were wide, watering a little. You wanted more than anything to reach out and wipe those tears away and to kiss her cheeks, even if they weren't tears of sorrow. But your knee was glued to the floor until she gave you an answer. She seemed to collect herself, then. Her hands wiped at her eyes, her lips curled into a smile, and then, finally, she nodded.

"Yes. Of course, yes."

She pulled you back onto the couch. It might have been a little far, with your knees on either side of her waist. The two girls could have walked in at any moment. But you were so completely happy that there was absolutely nothing that would have stopped you from resting your arms on her shoulders, linking your hands behind her neck, and kissing her like you needed her more than you needed oxygen in your lungs. You supposed you might have. She finally pushed you away.

"I love you."

"I love you, too, beautiful fiancée of mine," you teased. "I guess Tony was right then, huh? The babysitting gig was good for us."

She laughed and then buried herself in your embrace. You held her there, not a single care in the world, knowing she was yours and you were hers. One day you would have a life a little like this one. You and she together with a family of your own and so much love around you.

It was all thanks to the stupid, stupid babysitting gig.

TRIGGER WARNING!!! SPOILERS AHEAD.

Alright all shit aside that scene with Nate and Cal was fucked up and scary. Some people interpretation of the situation was that Nate was SA by Cal and others interpretation of it was Nate seeing the tapes of Cal at such a young age warped Nate. I'm leaning more towards the second interpretation. Nate becoming the very thing he despises has got to be alot for him. Combine that with Cal and Marsha's fucked up parenting, Nate was bound to grow into a pos. Nate seeing himself as one of Cal's partners/victims was really sick.... I don't know how to put it into words, it makes sense in my head but I get why Nate is the way he is. Not excusing his behavior cause majority of us unfortunately have some kind of trauma and we chose to not to be pieces of shit. We go get therapy or roll up and sort that fuckin shit out. Victimizing people cause you were victimized yourself is not an excuse, if anything you're supposed to know better, but I get that it's not as black and white as it is. His parents failed him. Marsha purposely turning a blind eye was just as bad. She had to know what Cal was doing. What parent doesn't know their kid?!! This would never be a Nate sympathy/apologist blog but I just get it.

Now onto Maddy and Cassie.... I was really trying to empathize with Cass up until she fuckin slept with Nate but Cass is a really bad friend. The fact that Maddy loved, probably still does love Cassie, more than Nate and was more hurt over the fact that Cassie betrayed her was heartbreaking. Maddy confessing by the door that Nate put her through hell and Cassie still went ahead to live with him and was flaunting being with him during school was downright trifilin and disgusting. Maddy called Cassie her soulmate and meant that shit and when she said she would've never did that to Cassie, that hurt bro.

Am I the only one who doesn't trust Samantha.. idk something about her is off.

For all Mama Suze faults you can't say she doesn't love and support her daughters. Just hope she can heal so she could get her happy ending. She was so proud of Lexi, it had me gushing.

I'm glad to see Rue thriving and getting sober. Leslie needed to have that talk with Rue. She honestly would've killed herself trying to save Rue and it would've destroyed Gia in the end. Finally they're acknowledging Gia in this. That baby always gets the shitty end of the stick. This quote, "sometimes you have to let go of stuff or people that destroy us no matter how much you love them" resonates deeply with that conversation. Rue dragging down herself will in turn sink everybody around her whether she wants to or not. Idc how much people love the idea of Jules and Rue but Rue needs to stay away from her. Rue and Jules aren't good for each other. She enables her behavior and then acts innocent. What Rue said about her was facts. Still haven't forgiven her and Elliott and I never will.

Ethan my darling. I love him your honor. Kat looked so pretty this episode. Fezbae and Ash need to be OK. Ashtray spidey senses are tingling and I need him to figure it out before something happens. The only reason why they got caught slipping is cause Ash went to the bathroom. We all know our boy is sharper than that. Faye is upsetting me. Fez was so nice to her bro.. His grandmother did warn him about his heart of gold but he can't help it. Haven't met his mom but that's her child. I just really don't want Fez heart to fuck him over in the end. Fez nervousness when getting ready was really sweet and adorable. You'll always be handsome baby. Lexi and his relationship is really fuckin sweet 😭💜. Also them messing with Lexi and her Halloween costume being Bob Ross was hilarious. I hope Rue and Lexi could get back close.

I'm done ranting now, the producers were some hoes for doing that cliffhanger. Bitch I got anxiety and this is all I'm gonna think about till Sunday.

Thinking about Bob Zanotto again (to the surprise of none).

Like, how did he join the Psychic 7? Out of all of them, there’s no instantly obvious reason for why he’s there.

Ford- Brought them all together. Otto- It’s implied that he and Ford were friends before they even knew the others. Lucrecia- Otto mentioned her in a letter, he’s the one who introduced Lucy to Ford. Compton- We see Ford come talk to him after the unfortunate incident with the animals. Helmut- We see Ford come talk to him after one of his shows/rehearsals. Cassie- She wrote a popular book, they probably heard of her that way. Bob- ???

Like Bob seemed to be this quiet guy. He wouldn’t have done anything that would have gotten anyone’s attention like the others. There’s just this gap in time in his life from what we see in the memory reels, from after losing his mom to when he first meets Helmut. At some point in that chunk of time, he had to meet the others and get invited to the party.

Now here’s where I start rambling and theorizing, and it’s going to roll with the theory that maybe Bob already lived in the area. It’s definitely going to be a bit rambley, so bear with me.

So Bob lived a pretty lonely life. His dad was already gone by the time he was a kid, whatever older sibling he had that would later become Truman’s parent left, and he was left alone with his mom. His mom struggled with her grief presumably over losing her husband (I don’t know if this is canon or just the most popular theory), and started taking less and less care of herself and spending more and more time out in her greenhouse drinking to cope with her grief. Bob cooked, cleaned, and made sure his mom slept. Basically, he took care of her for years, and I think that would have continued even when he was an adult, he’d cared for her for years and knew she didn’t have anyone else, he wouldn’t have left her alone.

But then, when Bob was still young (honestly he looks like he’s in the 17-21 age range in the slides with her funeral), his mom died. And the thing is, because he spent so long caring for her, he never formed any connections with anyone else besides his plants really. So then when she died, he was probably left with a house he didn’t know how to afford, her greenhouse, and all of his plants. She died, and Bob would have realized just how alone he was.

Now what I think happened here is that in order to afford things, maybe Bob started growing fruits and vegetables to sell. Maybe there was a small town nearby, and he sold produce to the local grocery store or someone there to make ends meet. Maybe rumors started flying about how no matter the time of year or the weather, he always had such good produce that would put any other gardener to shame. And maybe, someone in the Psychic 7 caught wind of these rumors, and went to check it out.

The idea of Bob growing stuff and that’s how the others heard of him could work too. If you talk to the version of Otto in Bob’s mind, then you can get the following dialogue line:

Raz: That can’t be the only reason you were friends with Bob. Otto: True. We also needed his vegetables.

So Bob did do stuff like grow plants in order to keep everyone fed, so the idea of him doing that beforehand isn’t too far-fetched.

#Psychonauts #Psychonauts 2 #Bob Zanotto #tw: alcoholism #Psychonauts rambling #Cy rambles #I have just been thinking about this so much #I've rambled about it to my friends so much lol #I wrote a thing involving this idea that I might post eventually #I just want to know more about his backstory you guys
