Omg?! I’m sorry to hear what you’re having to go through right now 😭😭 I hope you’re able to get all of it sorted soon and the person is caught. God that is just freaking terrible, I really hate people sometimes. It’s one of the reasons I’m thankful I work with animals and don’t have to deal with the masses. I’ll show you some of our shelter animals and hope that they make your day a little brighter and better, even if just for a moment. 🧡
This is Parker, a little beagle pupper someone just dumped at the dog park next door and one of our clients saw and brought him to us
Tumblr media
This is Thomas O’Malley (his name was originally Naked because we just wanted to say “hey can you get Naked for me” because we have the humor of 12 year old boys at my job)
Tumblr media
Mr. Stefan, the absolute sweetest boy, I almost took him home but he found a good one so that makes me happy. He was at the shelter for almost a year cause he has chronic issues and everyone just kept passing him up
Tumblr media
Snuggles, she’s so freaking cute. Very sweet and adorable lil baby. Had to have a major surgery right after we got her, but you’d never know that seeing her now
Tumblr media
Princess (I’m pretty sure that’s her name??? I think it is lol) there’s like a whole group of cats in our cat room that came from one house and they all look the same and I can’t ever remember who is who 😭
Tumblr media
And then Miss May Belle, she’s our clinic cat. She doesn’t want you to mess with her unless you are feeding her treats 😌 we head canon she has a Russian accent and interpret what we think she’s saying when she screams at us
Tumblr media
OMG LOOK AT ALL THE BABIES!!!
I also work with animals at a vet clinic, mostly cause I, too, am very introverted and hate people irl. The friends I've made online are better than some of the people I've met in person.
BUT BACK TO THE BABIE!!
Parker is so stinking cute!! How could anyone just dump him and leave him. He's so precious like look at his liddol face!
Thomas "Naked" O'Malley. That it what I am dubbing him and you cannot change my mind. I absolutely adore orange tabbies!! They are my favorite kitties cause of their chaotic natures!! I used to have one growing up named "Pretty." (I was 5. Sue me)
Stefan is such a handsome young man and I'm so happy he got a loving home. Everyone always passes by on the black cats and that always makes me want to take home every black cat I see in a shelter.
Snuggles! I want to give her snuggles She looks so soft and cuddly!! Im so happy that she recovered so well from her surgery. She deserves all the kiss o a her little nose!
Pretty, pretty Princess! She looks like the sweetest kitty ever! She looks so curious and I can practically hear the curious likke "Mmrr" when you took that picture.
Miss May Belle looks like a grumpy old Russian Lady 🤣 Give her plenty of treats for me!
Thank you for showing them to me!

Sorting my dogs into Hogwarts Houses:
(I do not support JK Rowling in any way. Cool? Cool.)
First up: Maggie.
Puggle (Pug + Beagle mix), 11 years old. Resident idiot. Nickname: Sweet Pea
House: Gryffindor. All day, every day.
Evidence:
Very loud. Barks at everything
Tries to fight thunder
Will scratch you if you stop petting her too soon
Does that “I’m not tired I’m just thinking w my eyes closer” thing (except there is not a thought behind those eyes)
When there was a Cottonmouth (venomous snake) in our backyard, she tried to eat it for approximately three seconds before she got scared and ran to get us
Starts fights w our older dog, loses every time
She’s a Gryffindor trust me y’all
Next is: Bella.
Also a Puggle (see above), 13 years old. Resident napper. Nickname: Bella Bella
House: Slytherin. Don’t be fooled by all the pictures of her sleeping.
Evidence:
The mastermind behind literally every escape attempt our dogs have ever staged
Used our male dog’s infatuation w her to her advantage
Sits by me as soon as I sit on the couch, and everyone knows the Slytherins stick together outside their common room
Will beg for food, but subtler than the other two
Wins the fights every time
During aforementioned snake incident, she hung back while the other two “fought” the snake (still got bit tho)
Idk I just get the vibes
Lastly: Shelton
Rat Terrier Mix (we think), would’ve been seven this year (5 when he crossed the rainbow bridge). Resident simp. Nickname: Shelly-ton
House: Hufflepuff
Evidence:
Bella’s best friend, boyfriend, loyal follower (the last two aren’t necessarily Hufflepuff related, I just thought it was relevant lmao)
Cute but psycho
Would sometimes lay down to eat his food
Stayed out of the fights
While Bella masterminded the escape plans, he was the one who followed along w it and did the work of digging under our fence
Again during the snake fiasco, he protected his girl, and killed the snake, getting bit on the snout in the process (he looked miserable w his snout all swollen :( )
Younger brother syndrome (again, not necessarily Hufflepuff but still relevant)
Used his cuteness to his advantage (mostly against my dad lmao) and it worked more often than not
(When he had surgery to remove an abscess from his paw he had a cone to keep him from chewing on the bandage. My dad took it off like 4 hours after getting home because “he just looked so sad”)
My boy 💛
Bonus: my granddad’s dog Chloe
Havanese, I think she’s like 13 or something. Resident napper/scaredy dog. Nickname: Chlo Chlo
House: Ravenclaw
Evidence:
Sits w my grandad while he does his daily Sudoku
Has anxiety
Barks at animals on the tv
(My favorite video of her is her barking at the tv while the GEICO camel commercial was playing)
That’s really it I just wanted to add some Ravenclaw representation
Love y’all smarty pantses 💙

Norfolk: 7 dogs up for adoption at Dogs Trust in Snetterton
New Post has been published on https://petnews2day.com/pet-industry-news/pet-charities/norfolk-7-dogs-up-for-adoption-at-dogs-trust-in-snetterton/
Norfolk: 7 dogs up for adoption at Dogs Trust in Snetterton
Published: 11:26 AM July 16, 2022
A pair of inseparable border collies who were picked up as strays are looking for a new home together in Norfolk.
Bertha and Bobby are among the many dogs which are waiting for their forever homes at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Snetterton. 
Here are seven dogs which are currently up for adoption:

Bobby is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Female and male
Age: Bertha is one, Bobby is three
A Dogs Trust spokesman said: “Bertha would love to find a new home with her best friend Bobby.
“Bertha and Bobby are a pair of border collies who were picked up as strays so we don’t have much background information on them.
“Bertha is the more confident of the two and will often approach for a bit of a fuss and attention from known people.
“Bobby is a little more timid than Bertha so he can be a bit wary of too much handling from unknown people.
“Bertha and Bobby would like an active home and owners who are keen to do a bit of training with them, as well as providing them with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation.”
Chelsea, Greyhound
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chelsea is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Female 
Age: Two to five years old
“This beautiful girl Chelsea has come into us from a racing background.
“She has probably never lived in a home so she may need a little help with settling in.
“She is such a sweet girl who likes being around people and dogs, and like most other Greyhounds she is a gentle giant.
“Being an ex-racer she will most likely chase cats and small animals so she will need to be on a lead when out and about.
“Chelsea could live with children eight years or over and in any location.
“She would ideally like an enclosed garden with 6ft fencing but this is not essential if there are plenty of walks around and opportunities for her to run off the lead in an enclosed area.”
Onya, Beagle
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Onya is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Female 
Age: One to two years
“Onya is as cute as can be, but she is not for first-time dog owners. She has quite a sensitive side to her and she was returned to us due to this.
“She will need to live in a quiet, rural location with owners who have lots of patience and understanding while she settles into a new home.
“It would be beneficial for the adopters to have had experience with rescue dogs so they can read her body language and not overhandle her when she’s showing signs of being uncomfortable.
“Once Onya has built a bond with someone she loves showing off her training as she is such a bright spark.
“She will make a fun dog for someone who is very active.”
Rufus, Hungarian Vizla
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rufus is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Male
Age: One to two years
“Meet bouncy boy Rufus.
“He is a young lad at 14 months old and he absolutely loves to play.
“He is guaranteed to make you smile when he is zooming about and throwing his toys in the air.
“He really enjoys spending time with people and can be very affectionate.
“Rufus does have allergies so a potential adopter would need to consider the costs associated with this.
“He can also be quite worried about having ear and eye treatments so he is looking for a patient home that can take this on.
“Our training team will be able to help with this.”
Sky Blue, Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sky Blue is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Female
Age: Five to seven years old
“Sky Blue is a gentle girl who is currently in a foster home.
“She enjoys her home comforts and is happiest chilling out on the sofa and spending time with her favourite people.
“Sky Blue is friendly to everyone she meets and enjoys going for short walks with calm doggy pals of similar size or bigger.
“She walks nicely on the lead but she can be very strong if she spots something she would like to investigate.
“Sky Blue has previously lived with children and particularly enjoys their company.
“Are you able to offer this lovely girl a comfy sofa in your home?”
Teddy, Greyhound 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chelsea is up for adoption at Dogs Trust rehoming centre in Norfolk – Credit: Dogs Trust
Sex: Male 
Age: Two to five years old
“Meet this handsome boy Teddy.
“Since arriving at the centre, Teddy has been an absolute sweetheart who enjoys spending time with people and playing with toys.
“Teddy is an ex-racer who has the typical Greyhound chase drive so will need to be kept on a lead on walks.
“He has probably never lived in a home so he may need a little help with settling in.
 “He would ideally like an enclosed garden with 6ft fencing but this is not essential if there are plenty of walks around and opportunities for him to run off the lead in an enclosed area.”

Dogs of the Week
Tumblr media
Today we had some special personalities at the kennel today. Clara is an energetic bulldog that always loves to play. She constantly has a friend to play with but she can push them the wrong way because of how strong and overbearing she might be. She has a little part of her upper lip missing, so she constantly has a bottom canine sticking out that makes her look so cute and unique. Right before she left from her boarding we found out it was her birthday! She had just turned 2 years old so we had to give her a birthday bone. 
Next, we have a black mini doodle named Duke. He constantly craves attention from humans which can get very old after a while. He could be laying down, all comfortable, but get up right away once you give another dog attention. Duke won't stop barking and chewing on our sleeves unless you give him love. Duke is a very crazy, fluffy, and smart dog that can get on your nerves but makes up for it with his cuddles and tricks (he can spin). Even with all of that he's a very love able dog who’s a favorite by many. 
Then we have Sheeba who’s a gray toy poodle that is very small. Sometimes I would try to look for her and she would blend in with the background. She was very easy to trip on because she always found a way to be right in front of your feet. Sheeba’s a very anxious, quiet, introverted dog who separates herself from the rest of the group. I often found her in the back corner of the outdoor kennel, sleeping or looking at everyone else. On her last day she actually bloomed and hung out with some of the other dogs. Sadly, that only lasted for a couple minutes before she went back to her favorite spot. 
Now we’ll talk about two very large dogs named Teddy and Bear. They are two Bernese Mountain dogs that never wanted to be separated from each other. Teddy and Bear are constantly wanting love from anyone who will give it. From pets, treats, and being brushed, they love attention. Bear is a female, while Teddy is a male, so Teddy’s size is bigger than Bear’s. That way they are easy to tell apart. It’s good to take a break from the small dogs and have a breath of fresh air with the bigger dogs. Though it's nice not being crushed by a dog that's 5 times bigger than a Pomeranian. 
A great beagle named Barley was here today as well. He is now becoming my new favorite because he’s so cuddly and sweet. He seems to think he’s not as big as he actually is because he loves to jump on your lap. When he first started coming often, we would have to pick him up by his back legs but now he is able to jump. Which is actually impressive because he catches some air. While he's on your lap, he faces you so his breath is constantly in your face. Sometimes it gets too hot and I have to make him get down. He is a very likable, love able, and sweet dog that I enjoy being around.

What Dog the AoT Characters Would Have 💛
Character(s): Armin Arlert, Sasha Braus, Jean Kirstein, Connie Springer, Bertholdt Hoover, & Annie Leonhardt
Genre: Light-hearted, modern!au
Warnings: Mentions of animal neglect/abuse, some dog breeds commonly perceived as scary, cursing
A/n: I usually include Mikasa in my headcanons, but I just forgot until last minute that she existed ;-; so, sorry for not including her. If someone requests it, I’ll add her to the list.
💛 Armin
His parents got him a beagle puppy for one of his birthdays and he got so attached to it. He was so grateful that he had a dog and absolutely treasures him.
Named him Buddy because he’s his little sidekick and is always fun to play with and snuggle up to.
Buddy almost never shuts up though. A bird flies past the window? He starts barking. A truck goes by? Goes bonkers. He sees himself in the mirror? Shooketh.
Whenever Buddy starts going crazy, Armin picks him up, takes him away from whatever’s bothering him and scratches behind his ears. That makes Buddy practically melt into Armin’s arms and it’s so adorable. 💕
Buddy is very protective over Armin, or as protective as a dog his size could be. He always barks at the doorbell and is very wary of strangers.
If you walk into Armin’s house and Buddy has never seen you before, Armin will be sitting in a chair holding a dog who’s glaring into your soul.
You and Armin will try to have a normal conversation while Buddy is snarling and growling at you with Armin just patting his head and making an expression that says he deals with this all the time.
After a couple visits, Buddy is still tense around you but unwinds once you start playing with him.
Whenever Armin’s studying or working, Buddy will jump up into his lap and snuggle with him.
Sometimes when Armin falls asleep at his desk, he’ll have his arms on the table and Buddy in his lap.
When he’s in the car, Buddy tries to bite cars through the window. He just growls and bangs the glass with his teeth before Armin stops him from chipping a tooth.
Just how Buddy is protective of Armin, Armin’s protective of Buddy.
If someone talks shit about his dog, he’ll get sad about it. Buddy doesn’t deserve to be treated like that, he never hurt anyone.
Buddy can’t be taken to the park because he just agitates other dogs. He never gets along with them and never lets his guard down.
Buddy’s also one of those dogs who gets really dramatic. One time he was laying on the couch with his ball and it rolled off so he just started howling.
It’s also really hard to trim his nails without him growling, even though he’d never bite anyone.
Once Buddy has calmed down around someone, he’s fun to just hang around.
Armin likes to sit on the couch reading with Buddy on his lap or beside him. He’s great to study with or have around.
💛 Sasha
Adopts a 5-year-old blue greyhound from her local shelter.
She’d been volunteering there for a while when the greyhound came in and just couldn’t resist.
With greyhounds being bred to hunt and Sasha coming from a family who has a hunting background, it seemed like a match made in heaven.
She bought her and gave her a bright pink collar with a little dog bone tag with her name etched in it.
Since greyhounds’ necks are so long, she gives her a big knitted scarf to wear in the winter to keep her all nice and cozy.
Was torn between naming her Snickerdoodle or Candy because they’re both cute names and are both foods, but ended up naming her Pumpkin because she couldn’t decide and Pumpkin’s a really cute name as well.
Sasha loves playing fetch with her and it’s so fun because Pumpkin can run really fast, really far.
Pumpkin almost never barks unless she’s having fun or there’s someone at the door.
Sasha’s bed is lofted by a couple feet for storage and Pumpkin has no problem getting on and off her bed.
The first time Pumpkin saw Sasha’s bed, she didn’t know what to do so just sat there looking up at Sasha. It took a couple minutes for her to realize Sasha patting the bed meant she could jump onto it.
Sasha allows her dog on any of the furniture so there’s short hairs all over the couch no matter what.
Pumpkin’s really kind and gentle around kids so Sasha can basically take her anywhere. She’s super well behaved but sometimes scares people because she jumps in excitement.
Sasha also shares her food with her dog all the time. Always packs extra whenever she goes somewhere so she can give some to Pumpkin.
If you moved in with Sasha, Pumpkin would take to you right away.
She would literally be so sweet and always make you happy all the time. 😭💕
Plays tug of war and fetch a lot with you.
If you’re working/eating at a desk, she’ll lean her head on your leg until you pet her or give her food, or both.
Overall, Pumpkin is so sweet and adorable. She will always cheer you up when you need it and always has enough energy to play.
💛 Jean
Adopted a pitbull who is now 6, but was brought into a fighting ring when he was 4.
He knew it would be a challenge to help an abused dog but wanted to give him a good home.
When he first saw him, he was covered in scars and missing part of his ear.
He named him Kane. He’s a beautiful deep reddish-brown color with a white belly.
From the first moment they met, there was a connection. Kane warmed up to Jean quite quickly for a dog who’s been through so much.
Jean took him home and slowly introduced him to lifestyle changes, like going for walks or taking baths.
He introduces him to other dogs too. Kane showed a little hostility in the beginning, but once he realized they weren’t threats he was fine being around them.
Jean pays top dollar for him. Any issue he has, he takes him to the vet and gets it fixed up. He also gets the best food for him because that’s what he deserves.
Kane loves going for car rides. Sometimes Jean will get in the car with him, no destination in mind, and just drive.
Jean rolls the window down and Kane pokes his head outside. His mouth opens and because of the wind going into it, he showers the window behind him in slobber.
Kane absolutely loves swimming. He’s quite good at it, but Jean still takes a lot of safety precautions, such as a life jacket or shallow water because pitbulls are known to be somewhat bad swimmers.
Every summer, Jean takes out a kiddie pool and lets Kane splash around in it.
He also really likes to turn on the hose or sprinkler and aim it at Kane. He jumps up to bite the water and they both have a great time.
It can be a problem though because when Jean’s trying to fill the pool up, Kane keeps batting the hose with his paw or trying to eat the water and Jean has to get him to relax.
Other than his little quirks, Kane’s a relatively chill dog. He’s alright with being dressed up in costumes or having to wear a cone.
Every halloween, Jean gets both of them a matching costume and they sit on the porch to give kids candy.
Jean also lets the kids pet Kane because over time, he gets very welcoming of people and other dogs he doesn’t know.
Long story short, Kane’s not the dog you want to protect your house, if someone broke in, he’d just start wagging his tail and not be able to tell what’s going on.
💛 Connie
Saw how cool Jean’s dog is and also wanted a badass and cool breed.
He ended up adopting a doberman pinscher.
Like Jean’s dog, she looks strong and intimidating.
Unlike Jean’s dog, she acts the complete opposite of how she looks.
She’s often quite jittery or seems scared. Whenever someone even remotely raises their voice, her ears go down and she lowers her head.
You and Connie often have to give her tons of pets and appreciation after shouting, whether it’s good or bad shouting.
She’s also a total cuddlebug. She loves to be on Connie’s lap 24/7 and sleeps right next to him, watching over him.
Because of her timid personality, Connie named her Lily. It’s a sweet and innocent sounding name. Even though he sought her out to be a “cool” dog, she’s super sweet and didn’t want to name her something that conflicted with who she really was.
One thing about Lily is she loves running. Connie likes to skateboard alongside her as she pulls him along. It’s not much effort for her because Connie’s lightweight and uses his feet a lot. Plus, the area they live is pretty flat, so they often do.
Lily has a hard time understanding what is and isn’t a toy. One time she nearly chewed off one of the sofa legs. Next time Connie sat on it, it snapped and then he figured out Lily was behind it.
After that, he trained her to know everything he puts in her basket is a toy, but everything else isn’t. Then, she used the basket as a toy.
She goes through toys lightning quick.
Every time you or Connie give her a new stuffed animal, it takes approximately .2 seconds for it to be torn to shreds.
Connie loves to take her to PetSmart and let her pick out toys in-store.
If she chooses a toy that means Connie won’t need to guess what she likes and what she doesn’t.
One time she chose one of those scented rope toys, but once Connie took the packaging off, she started acting weirdly.
Once he gave it to her, she started barking at it and whacking it with her paw.
Connie was super confused so he threw it and she chased after it like normal, but once she got close to it she started acting scared of it and barking.
It’s been like that ever since now so they just don’t play with that toy.
Lily doesn’t bark that often. She usually only barks from excitement or when she meets someone new.
She also doesn’t have the zoomies that much so she’s a really relaxed dog to hang with.
💛 Bertholdt
Bertholdt saw his neighbors packing their stuff in a van one day and leaving but saw they left their samoyed leashed up outside.
He wanted to hold out hope that they were just going out somewhere for a bit so waited the rest of the night but found the dog still chained up the next morning in the rain.
He was never close to his neighbors and didn’t want any confrontation so he went up and knocked on the door, checking if anyone was home.
No surprise, they weren’t so he cautiously made his way over to the dog.
It was so happy to see someone and started licking his hand right away.
He unchained the dog and led it into his house where he gave it a nice warm bath and some food.
While bathing her, he took off her collar, with the neighbor’s number and address engraved in it along with her name, Mavis.
While Mavis was eating he called the number he found on her tag. He explained that the dog looked like it was left there on purpose so he took it in until they got home. They just said they didn’t want her anymore and hung up, which broke Bertholdt’s heart.
So he took her to the vet, got some pet things because he hasn’t owned a pet previously and she became a big part of his life.
She clings to him everywhere and won’t ever leave his side. Almost never barks and is super good on a leash.
Bertholdt takes her to the dog park a lot, Mavis is very social and has made a lot of friends there.
Mavis has quite the habit of rolling around in the mud or dirt though so Bertholdt has to give her a bath quite often.
Bertholdt absolutely cannot contain the dog hair. There is so much of it and it’s everywhere, went through like 3 lint rollers in the first week.
He spoils her rotten. Whenever he goes shopping he gets her new treats and toys because he swore to do right by her when her old owners didn’t.
If you were brought into the equation, Mavis would love you unconditionally. She’ll be there to give you high-fives and cuddle with you.
She is the softest thing on the planet so the cuddles are amazing. If you and Bertholdt sleep together, she’ll plop herself right in between the both of you so she could get attention until you fall asleep.
Whenever she needs something but isn’t up, she licks your face until you give her what she wants.
Even though she can get quite hot in the summer, she always wants to cuddle and loves to do it, whether it’s with you or Bertholdt.
💛 Annie (normally I don’t write for her but I couldn’t get this scenario out of my head)
Hitch gave her a chihuahua for her birthday even though she never remotely hinted at wanting a dog.
She didn’t want to return it though and oddly liked it, even though she never asked for him.
Just calls him “Dog” for a bit since she doesn’t know what to name him.
He’s a tan deer head dog so Annie gives him the name “Biscuit” after a couple weeks.
It’s super generic but she doesn’t think he needs any fancy name and he looks like a biscuit so 🤷🏻‍♀️
She has one of the backpacks with a compartment to fit a dog.
She likes to put Biscuit in there and take him out when she goes out.
When Annie takes him out, Biscuit is usually pretty chill, aside from giving a couple glares to random people.
Sometimes he even falls asleep in her backpack.
Whenever someone pisses Annie off, Biscuit senses it. Annie isn’t usually one to get into a full-blow fight and be loud, so Biscuit is her volume. Whenever she starts going off, he starts growling and barking.
And when she does get loud, both of them are yelling and screaming so that often deters the other person.
When she first got Biscuit, Annie didn’t really pay that much attention to him. She’d be on the couch and whenever he came up to her with a ball or toy, she’d throw it.
Then as she started to get used to him, she started to like him more.
Nowadays, she sometimes chases him around the house with a smile on her face and it’s so adorable, especially because she doesn’t smile all too often.
Biscuit is relatively calm, even for a chihuahua. He can often be seen on the couch on his back with his tongue out laying in the sun.
Speaking of being on the couch, originally Annie wanted to keep him off all furniture but soon realized he simply wouldn’t stay off and she didn’t want to bother to train him not to.
Now, they share almost everything. She sleeps with him next to her, they relax on the couch together, and sometimes she even brings him up on one of the kitchen chairs and they share food together.
Biscuit hates her alarm clock with a passion. If Annie doesn’t wake up from the alarm, she wakes up from the high pitched barks of her dog wanting her to turn it off.
Once the two are close, they are bonded for life and can be seen everywhere together.

for @jonmartinweek day 8! (which I definitely realized was happening and for sure did not forget lmao). The prompt was free day/au, so I picked my own theme of “pets”. The last few fics have been pretty loaded, so please enjoy some pure post canon (literal and figurative) fluff
~*~
“I can’t believe I married a dog person.”
They weren’t even supposed to be in the shelter. They had made no plans to visit a shelter. However, as Jon has been learning over the course of the past couple years, a Martin not under duress and given free time outside will inevitably end up trying to befriend any living nonhuman creature in the immediate vicinity.
“I’m not a dog person.”
“The lapful of beagle puppy would indicate otherwise.”
“Just because I appreciate the company of a very good boy, yes you are, doesn’t mean I’m a dog person. Dog person implies I have a preference. I like cats equally as much as I like dogs. Unlike some of us, my heart is open to all manner of furry friends.”
“I don’t...hate dogs.”
“Uh-huh. Is that why you won’t pet Rufio here?”
“He’s nippy, I don’t trust him. And it’s just that dogs are A Lot. I find most of them a bit overwhelming. And needy.”
“Pff, that’s no excuse. You’ve been best friends with overwhelming, and you married needy.”
Martin lets out a distracted giggle as Rufio finally gets in a lick on his face. Okay, maybe it is a pretty adorable sight, but that’s hardly sufficient enough evidence to actually let such an energetic ball of fluff into their home. Still, it’s enough to convince Jon to sit down next to them, and give Rufio a very tentative scritch behind the ears. “I think we both qualify as the needy one in our relationship.”
“Pretty sure that’s called codependency. What would our therapist say?”
“She’d probably say that’s a bit harsh. And that we still need to work on our separation anxiety.”
“Hey, you know what helps with separation anxiety?”
“No.”
“A dog!”
“No!”
They get a dog. Their flat is decently sized and they both have steady incomes and enough free time between them to take proper care of her. They don’t get Rufio, but instead a 7 year old mutt named Daffodil who is, admittedly, the most gentle and sweet creature Jon’s ever met. They also get a cat, a rambunctious 2 year old tabby named Jack (“We can change the name.” “Jon! How dare you! Jack responds to his name, clearly he likes it!”) who had already decided Daffodil was his mom, and they couldn’t possibly bear not adopting them together.
~*~
“You know, we could get a tarantula.”
“Fuck off.”
“I’m serious! They’re not, like, evil in this universe, and some of them have cutest little pink toesie woesies.”
“You’re not serious, you’re being a bastard, and I hate you.”
Martin wraps his arms around Jon’s waist and presses a kiss to the side of his face, which Jon gives a half-hearted swat at, because, again, the man’s being a bastard. Stubbornly ignoring Jon’s pout, Martin presses his cheek to the top of Jon’s head, cheerfully replying, “I’m fine with that, as long as you promise to hate me for the rest of our lives.”
“Well, I certainly can’t make that promise. I won’t even hate you ten seconds from now. I suppose you’ll have to settle for love instead.”
“Hmm. Deal.”
“We’re still not getting a fucking tarantula.”
They do not get a tarantula. Their home remains admirably spider free.
~*~
Martin’s gasp is loud enough to echo, and Jon can feel him begin to vibrate next to him. The excitement is perplexing at first, they’ve been to this bookstore dozens of times, and it’s never elicited this sort of response. Then Jon looks over to the front counter, where a medium-sized cage and a “For adoption” sign have been put on display. With a wild, jubilant glee, Martin asks, “Sonja! Are those baby. Dumbo. Rats?!”
“Sure are! I’ve got a friend who’s a breeder, I take it you’re interested?”
“Yes, absolutely, 100%, we’re getting two immediately.”
“Well…”
Martin snaps his head over to look at Jon with a look of betrayal the likes of which Jon hasn’t seen since the panopticon. “Jonathan, no!”
“Um.”
“You can not tell me you you don’t like rats! Dumbo rats especially!”
“I…”
Ticking off on his fingers, Martin lists, “They’re adorable, they’re smart, they’re cleanly, they’re extremely empathetic, they’re tickilish, which is stupidly cute, they can be trained to use a litter box and do tricks, they’re snuggly and playful and perfect! They’re all the good parts of dogs combined with the best parts of cats in one tiny portable package! Look at their little ears, that are like that because of a slight difference in skull shape that has no negative health effects! Plus, we can set them up in the project room, since Captain Jack isn’t allowed in there anyway. How can you dislike rats?”
“I don’t know! They just sort of..freak me out. Or not all of them, just their feet. I don’t like their little man hands.”
Martin throws his arms in the air, proclaiming, “Their little man hands are one of their best qualities! Look, Jon, are you genuinely afraid of them, or just slightly discomfited?”
“I would say mediumly discomfited. This isn’t like spiders.”
“Cool. ‘Cause in that case, we’re getting the light tan one and the solid white one, their names shall be Peaches and Cream, and you will love them as much as you love our dog and cat children.”
“That’s a rather bold claim.”
“It’s an accurate one. You’ll see.”
Within a week, Jon is transporting Peaches ‘n’ Cream in the pocket of his hoodie, and he can feel Martin’s smug aura from two rooms away. Damn him.
~*~
“Did you know snakes don’t have an amygdala?”
“Okay? You didn’t have to bring me to a reptile store to tell me that.”
“I didn’t bring you to a reptile store to tell you that. I brought you to a reptile store because I want to hold a cornsnake.”
Jon rolls his eyes, but the fondness in his voice somewhat undercuts it. “Of course you do.”
Martin makes a scaly acquaintance in less than two minutes, and as the snake coils around his fingers, he continues, “Anyway, if they don’t have amygladas, do they feel fear in a way similar to us, or is it only a recognition of threats and instinctual response?”
“Martin, my love, I have no idea. Is this going somewhere? It’s fine if not, I’m just checking in.”
“Yes. Because if they don’t feel fear, I’m getting this snake and naming her Georgie.”
That makes Jon let out a sharp bark of laugh, and, for a moment, he’s able to reminisce without any pain. “You know, I think she’d actually love that? She also had a proclivity for all creatures great and small. And a terrible sense of humor.”
“Wow, you really have a type, huh. Also hey! My sense of humor is fantastic! It always makes my husband laugh, and he has very exacting standards.”
“Liar. Your husband finds joy with you at the slightest provocation, no good sense of humor needed.”
“Hmm. He is a bit of a softie, isn’t he? Which is why he’ll let me get this snake.”
“He most certainly will not.”
“But….look at her….”
“It’s not a matter of how cute she is, dear. It’s a matter of you made us get pet rats less than a month ago, there’s absolutely no way you’re going to be able to feed mice to a snake.”
Martin looks at the cornsnake, looks at Jon, looks back, and his shoulders slump. With a wince, he asks, “Maybe frozen mice won’t be too bad?”
“What if she’s picky?”
“...There are species of snake that only eat bugs.”
“Cornsnakes aren’t one of them.”
Waving over an assistant, Martin puts the cornsnake back with a defeated, “Fine. When you’re right, you’re right.”
Jon doesn’t particularly feel like he’s won an argument. In fact, he’s a bit disappointed himself, he always liked snakes. Big fan of reptiles in general, actually, which is probably what drives him to say, “Lizards don’t usually eat mice.”
That’s how they walk out of the store with three leopard geckos.
~*~
Jon’s helping Martin set up the gecko tank in what can now be affectionately called a zoo when all of the sudden it strikes him. Some of the animals in their home right now have life spans of 10-20 years, and never once had the necessary longevity of care come up as a reason to protest against them. Jon had felt so at ease with the concept of a future that he hadn’t even thought about it, hadn’t been steeling himself for the other shoe to drop. He’s stopped having bated breath every time something good happens, instead taking reassurance in a sense of permanence that he wasn’t sure he’d ever feel again. Martin must hear his breath hitch, because he immediately stops what he’s doing to take Jon’s hand into his own. “Something wrong, love?”
Jon shakes his head. “No, nothing. I suppose I’m realizing that we have time, don’t we?”
Martin must know exactly what he means, the weight behind the words, because he brings Jon’s hand to his lips and says, “Yes. Yes, we really, really do.”

alrighty, let’s recap this bitch!
LAUNCHPAD! I’VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH! PLEASE COME BACK!
I looked up when National S’mores Day is (because I’m a nerd) and it is August 10. So either the photo later was mislabeled or, more likely, Launchpad got the wrong info
Huey with the little baby scouts is TOO CUTE!!
I wonder if Violet’s there. Probably not because she would have been hanging out with Huey if she was. Or this episode was meant to come before Challenge
It’s a baby beagle boy! I wonder if he’s there of his own will or if it is part of some plan
He scared away most of the kids! Now they won’t get to enjoy s’more-y goodness
His s’more sounds DOPE AF, though it probably would give you INSTANT DIABETES
“Aw, not even a modern robot.” MY SWEET SON!
I know it was the bully saying it, but Huey should chill a bit when it comes to doing things EXACTLY and PERFECTLY. It’s just gonna cause stress
 BOYD IS BABY AND I LOVE HIM
“Would you like to be friends?” “Sure. Wow, that was easy.” If only it was always that easy
I don’t know if Huey has the JWG as memorized as he thinks, going by Challenge and Quack Pack
“We’re just kids.” “Definitely!” *uses laser eyes to light fire*
This episode does a good job showing what a trigger word/phrase is like, though I’m not sure if that was the intention
I like that a squirrel with a burnt tail scurries out of one of the trees. It’s the attention to detail that helps elevate this show
Instead of jumping out of the way or hiding Huey jumps straight onto Boyd to try and help him. Huey already sees Boyd as someone worth protecting
The kid that just runs across the screen while his hat is on fire is great
Not sure why they took the time to change before going to Gyro but whatever
BOYD IS ADORABLE AND I LOVE HIM
“I’m more than an intern, I’m a scientist.” I feel like this might be hinting at Fenton’s arc for the season, possibly wanting to be seen more as a scientist than a superhero
I’m gonna pretend that using sunglasses on someone who is shooting lasers out of their eyes is a Cyclops reference. And they look pretty dope too
At least Fenton knows when he is in over his head...this time
Gyro trying to climb up on the table to avoid Boyd was kind of funny. And then him protecting himself with Lil Bulb
“Which one?” Manny is DONE with this shit
“Boyd? What idiot called it that?” Even when he’s not there, Gyro can still burn Mark lol
I figured 2-BO was a reference to something but wasn’t sure what. Apparently it’s a bit of a play on the name of Astro Boy’s in-universe creator’s son. Neat
 Huey stays in between Gyro and Boyd to protect Boyd
Fenton’s face cracks me up. There are NO THOUGHTS in this man’s head lol
“You were an intern like me?” “Nothing like you.” Damn Gyro, why so salty?
I don’t know why Fenton is so surprised that Gyro was an intern. I feel like that’s a pretty standard thing
LOVE IS STORED IN THE BOYD
It make me sad when Gyro mentions how many times Boyd’s core programing was altered. Poor baby doesn’t really get a say in what happens to him
“ROAD TRIP!” Huey, you do these kinds of things ALL THE TIME. I feel like he should be used to this by now
“YOU’RE not going. GIZMODUCK is.” Does Gyro see Fenton and Gizmoduck as separate entities or is this just a no, but yes type of joke?
Huey standing up for Boyd is so sweet. They barely know each other but Huey trusts him
When the episode doesn’t have the theme song you KNOW shit’s ‘bout to go down
I wonder who’s flying the plane. My guess is Launchpad because Della would have been cooing over Huey making a new friend and go into embarrassing mom mode. He probably went of on his own adventure or did tourist things like buying collectables. Or maybe Gyro flew them there. Who knows
As many people have said, the art direction and animation for this episode are BEAUTIFUL. I love the pink tint the lighting has in most of the episode
SAILOR MOON CONFIRMED CANON
I bet Mark Beaks is a Sailor Moon fan
I like that the in-universe Sailor Moon is a bunny because Usagi is Japanese for rabbit
I love that going incognito nowadays means you wear a hat, a hoodie, and sunglasses. Boyd looks good in red (though red is my favorite color so I might be biased)
Gyro-takes one step and the fuzz shows up. NOICE
I like detective lady. She has a cool design
Huey and Fenton are awful at acting casual
“Crimes?” Oh my sweet Hubert. I’m pretty sure most if not all of Scrooge’s employees have had run ins w/ The Law
Gyro is like, move I’m gay
“I’m here on a very important...field trip.” ALL THE KIDS NEED A GYRO FIELD TRIP LIKE HOW THE GAANG GOT ZUKO FIELD TRIPS
Lil Bulb said FUCK THE POLICE
I wonder what it actually says
Fenton just watches as the inspector chases Lil Bulb
Seriously though, Fenton does a bunch of silly stuff in the background and this episode warrants a rewatch SOLELY for him
How did Lil Bulb know where to find them? And how did he shake off the inspector? I want to see his little adventure
FOR SCIENCE!
“Blah!” *arm armor attaches* I want this joke to come back
Fenton and Huey INSTANTLY nerd out. I love them
Fenton being a Gyro fanboy is ADORABLE
“AH, DUST IN MY EYE! The dust of GENIUS!” What a dweeb lol
I like that Fenton keeps the arm on for the whole scene
Poor Boyd, he looks so scared
Huey going into protective big brother mode
Doofus continues to be equal parts hilarious and disturbing
Where are their parents? Like, someone should be looking after these kids! ESPECIALLY DOOFUS!
“Do you need a hug?” I SURE FUCKING DO
Mark is such a prick lol
“NO WAY, A ROBOT BOY! DREAMS DO COME TRUE!” YOU DON’T DESERVE THAT DREAM YOU COCKWAFFLE
SOMEONE HUG THIS CHILD! BECAUSE I CANNOT!
“Seems like the little guy’s had it tough.” MY POOR BABY
Lil Bulb gets SO PISSED he blew a fuse
You really shouldn’t have left them alone, Gyro
Why does Fenton automatically jump to superhero for Boyd? I mean the theme of the episode is letting Boyd choose who he wants to be so of course Fenton would have his own idea of what Boyd should be, but why go straight to superhero? Do you want superbros, Fenton?
Huey already realises this might be a bad idea, because he’s more concerned about Boyd as a person rather than Boyd as a machine
“IN RETROSPECT WE PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE USED THE FIRST HOLE” Fenton, you dumbass genius
Dr. Akita’s setup made me laugh. I DIED when he “enhanced” the image
I recognized the character on the chips though I don’t know their name. I’m more of a western animation fan, so many of the references probably flew pass me
BOOP
I also have a key on my laptop that flies off (it’s the u key)
I LOVE BABY GYRO! It’s so cool they went with his og look (minus the red hair) to show him younger
I LOVE THE OUTLAW COUPLE! SO COOL! SO HOT!
Huey is so DONE with Fenton
I love the stupid G pose he does. PLEASE HAVE HIM DO IT AGAIN. PREFERABLY WHEN DW IS NEARBY
Such a polite boy
“My bones are metal!” This line and Boyd’s catchphrase of “Hi, I’m Boyd/2-BO, a definitely real boy!” reminded me of Olaf. The end of the episode gives Boyd even MORE Olaf parallels
Gizmoduck sliding by those boxes was cool
How did Gizmoduck get himself unstuck from that alley?
I loved the double take the female outlaw does
Huey is TRAUMATIZED
I legit thought Boyd was gonna light the oil on fire the first time I watched and I was like that won’t help
“So, what do we do now?” “I...don’t know.” This is why you don’t leave babies alone to fight criminals
Boyd reminded me of Calculester from Monster Prom when he asked the lady to return the money
STOP LEAVING THE CHILDREN ALONE! THEY ARE BABIES! THEY AREN’T EVEN TEENS!
“Why do we always fight when we’re on vacation?” Because this is Ducktales and there is no such thing as a normal vacation
Lil Bulb just kicking his lil feet
The “lab” safety poster made me chuckle. Then I remembered Akita is also a dog and I laughed more
LITTLE BABY GYRO GRADUATING! My guess is his professor/dean/principal influenced him on a personal level and is partially the reason Boyd is a parrot
Lil Helper blueprints. Nice reference to the og series
Has anyone talked about the poster with the cogs and the dogman in old-timey clothes that says GIZMOS on it? I think it’s a Dr. Who reference
IDEALISTIC GYRO AND BOYD IS TOO CUTE!
How did he NOT notice the second hole in the wall?
That is a surplus of handcuffs. Do you think she uses them for...fun times?
“I’m just a guy! With very bruisable skin!”
Poor misunderstood Gyro inventions
Boyd just politely waves at everyone
Huey is WAY calmer than I would be if I got lost in an unfamiliar city
Boyd says FUCK WORK
 I love Huey stimming. Really hope Disney will let them confirm in words that Huey is autistic
Is it more common for two kids to wonder around by themselves in Tokyo? Because as an American I find it super stressful and would want to find their parents so they could be safer
THE BUNNY! AND THEN THE KITTIES!
Do cats just take buses on their own in Tokyo?
CHERRY BLOSSOM TIME BITCHES
“And I know what you’re thinking, what about ninjas?” I am ALWAYS wondering about ninjas
I like that Huey finally has a friend who shares the same interests and doesn’t mind info dumps
“Boyd, I don’t think you’re a killer robot. You’re just a kid.” “Aw, that’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.” T_T
I CAN SHOW YOU THE WORLD
I like Boyd’s motief
Akita is us after the quarantine
When he complained about being stiff I was like mood
I like his Green Goblin disc thingy
The other people don’t give a shit about Boyd just FLYING DOWN WITH HIS ROCKET FEET!
Gyro shows up *dramatic wind*
His tablet has a duckie on it. I wounder if they have a Mac/PC thing going on with Waddle and what brand the duckie represents
When the adults argue and Boyd gets all sad and scared I FELT THAT
Huey doing his best to keep Boyd calm and defend him SO PURE
OH GOD HELP THIS POOR CHILD!
HUEY IS A GOOD BOY AND A GOOD FRIEND
“Because of you I’ve become an outcast.” I feel like you did that to yourself
ANIME HAIR POOF
ngl, that shit was TERRIFYING
“You don’t have to do what Akita tells you. Do what I tell you.” So close
“INTERN! FIGHT BETTER!”
Huey must weigh NOTHING if Gyro can pick him up
Akita’s tail looks like a cinnamon roll
Huey always finding that hidden info
The gibberish Gyro says is great
BOYD SAYS IT BECAUSE GYRO TOLD HIM THAT!
THAT HUG!!!
HOW DARE AKITA HURT BABY GYRO AND SWEET BABY BOYD?!
PROTECTIVE PAPA GYRO
NEEEEERRRRRRRD FIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT
“You’ll never invent anything worthwhile.” LIL BULB HAS ENTERED THE FIGHT
Are doggos recyclable?
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGS
Blue eyes=good robot
ANOTHER HUG
Be Only Yourself, Dude
I like that basically Gyro admitted that he was like Fenton if Fenton hadn’t had support
“That’s not technically how doctorites work, BUT I DON’T CARE!” Do you think Gyro doesn’t have his doctorate or do you think he assumed Fenton already had one?
“The hugging is a ‘just for today’ thing.” YOU CANNOT STOP THE HUG TRAIN!
“Leave. Now.”
Are they gonna go to the plane?
This season has been consistently knocking it out of the park! I’m a SLUT for backstory episodes, so I enjoyed this one a lot. I loved seeing Gyro when he had hope and faith in the world. It SUCKS that Akita took that away from him. Hopefully Gyro will see things slightly less cynical now. Fenton was a dweeb the whole episode and I love him for it. Boyd is SO SWEET AND PRECIOUS and in NO WAY deserved the treatment he got. I have a feeling there is more to Boyd’s creation/Dr.Akita that we’ll get later on. Huey was ADORABLE this episode. It’s really sweet to see him hangout with someone who gets him. Everyone deserves to have at least one friend like that. The fight scene was GORGEOUS! SO FLUID! I really loved this one and I hope we get more Team Science episodes because these characters play really well off each other.

Domestic
Farm House sequel
Natasha x reader x Clint
It was a peaceful morning, though it was nearly noon. The sun had long ago risen, and its beams had brightened the bedroom hours ago. Waking up was a difficult process, you were surrounded by warmth that almost beckoned you to fall back asleep. Opening your eyes, you were met with a naked chest in front of you, shifting your head you saw Clint’s still asleep peaceful face.
Turning slightly, you could see Natasha too was still sleeping. Her hair was falling over her relaxed face, a gentle smile adorned her face. Smiling at the two you relaxed back into their grasp with a content sigh. The three of you had been home for almost two weeks. After the whole Ultron dilemma Natasha and lint had decided to go on leave for a while.
With the instructions not to bother the three of you unless the world was ending, the three of you had enjoyed the time you finally got together. The two never told the team when to expect them back but it was a good guess they wouldn’t be back for a long while.
But Natasha and Clint didn’t care. They deserved this break and they were going to have it.
“I can hear you thinking.” Clint murmured, startling you out of your thoughts. Clint’s bleary eyes were attempting to focus on you as he ran his fingers through your locks. “Go back to sleep, Y/N.”
“It’s already noon, Clint.” You said, leaning into his touch. “We have to get up at some point.”
“But we have nowhere to be and nothing to do today.” Natasha spoke causing you to jump.  “So, we don’t have to get up at all.” She explained with a smile.
“Your right.” You said, leaning back into Natasha’s chest. “It feels good to not have to get up.”
“Well get used to it.” Clint said, throwing his arm over the two of you. “We have plenty of time to do absolutely nothing.”
“I like the sound of that.” You replied. The three of you continued talking softly, no-one making the move to get up, and before you knew it you all drifted back off to sleep.
“No, no, no, no. Stop that.” Clint said, taking the bowl away from you. “Your going to ruin it.”
“Your going to ruin it.” You repeated, trying to take the bowl back. Clint smiled and held the bowl higher over his head.
“You can’t add vodka to the brownie mixture.” He sighed, moving further away from you. “That’s not in the recipe.” In hindsight Natasha should have known better to go into town and leave you and Clint alone. The two of you had gotten bored and there was absolutely nothing else to do so you’d decided to make brownies.
While baking Clint had the genius idea to pour a glass or two of vodka, this led to your brilliant idea to add vodka to the brownies.
“If it’s in the mix, it’s in the recipe.” You said, levitating the mixture away from Clint’s hands. “At least that’s how it works in my head.”
“No powers in the kitchen.” Clint whined, giving you a pout. “The brownies don’t need vodka, don’t ruin a perfectly good brownie.”
“How about we make two boxes, one fun mix with vodka and one regular, less exciting, straight from the recipe mix?” You suggested, placing your bowl on the counter. Clint stared at you for a moment before nodding his consent.
“I can live with that. More brownies.” He said, pulling the other mix out of the cupboard.
“Oh Lucky, move bud.” You exclaimed, almost tripping over the one-eyed dog. Lucky continued to follow you, repeatedly moving under your feet. “Clint control your dog.” You ordered, placing the items in your hands on the counter.
“He’s not my dog, he’s our dog.” He said, turning to you with a smile. “Can you grab me the flour?” He asked, turning back to his bowl.
“Of course.” You replied, moving over to the pantry. Grabbing the item, he needed, you walked back into the kitchen only to trip over the golden retriever. The bag of flour flew out of your hand and landed on Clint’s head, covering him from head to toe.
“Babe!” He exclaimed in shock. You covered your mouth and tried to hold in the giggles threatening to escape your mouth. Eventually you couldn’t hold them in and began to giggle uncontrollably.
“Sorry, sweetie.” You laughed, wiping tears from your eyes. Clint narrowed his blue eyes at you before giving you a sickeningly sweet smile.
“Of course, you are. Babe you have something on your face.” Clint said, pointing to your face. He quickly grabbed his brownie mix and rushed towards you and dumped the mixture on your head.
“Clint!” You shrieked, trying to pull away from the man. He held you tighter in his arms. Using your powers, you made eggs begin to pelt him in the back.
“No powers in the kitchen.” He yelled, using the empty bowl to protect himself. Grabbing the carton of milk, he hurled the liquid at you. Milk dripped from your face and chocolate batter off your head. Eggs continued to pelt Clint and flour flung around as he moved. Lucky ran around the kitchen barking as he watched the two of you.
“Just because you don’t have any powers to use.” You snarked, throwing flour in his face.
“That’s it.” Clint said, grabbing you by the waist. He lifted you off the ground and threw you over his shoulder causing you to let out a squeal. Eggs stopped pelting Clint as you struggled in his hold.
“Clint, no!”
“I was only gone for an hour.” Natasha said from the doorway, making her presence known. “How the hell did you two cause all this?”
“Tash!” You both exclaimed in surprise.
“How long have you been standing there?” You asked, still hanging over Clint’s shoulder.
“More than long enough.” She answered, moving into the kitchen. “Why do you have another bowl of brownie mix?” She asked, moving over to the counter.
“We wanted to make a normal batch and a vodka batch.” Clint explained, readjusting his grip on you.
“A vodka brownie. That would’ve been a great treat.” She said, picking up the bowl and dipping her finger in it. She let out a groan as she tasted it before smiling at you both. “It’s a shame it had to be spilled.” She added, flinging the mixture on you both.
The two of you stared wide eyed at the woman before Clint put you back on your feet. He gave you a mischievous smile and grabbed your hand.
“Y/N, what kind of husband or wife are we if we don’t hug our other wife when she comes home?” Clint asked, turning to you.
“Horrible partners we are Clint.” You said with a smirk, before you both turned back to face the red head. The two of you gave the woman no warning before tackling her to the ground, arms wrapped tightly around her and each other.
“Gross.” Natasha scowled, mock glaring at the two of you. Natasha kissed you first before doing the same to Clint. “Though that tastes nice.” She commented with a smile. The three of you laid together on the ground, Lucky behind you eating the egg off the floor, for a long time before Natasha tapped you both on the thigh and sat up. “You two are cleaning this up.”
With a groan the three of you got off the ground and surveyed the kitchen as you stood.
“Oh Thor, help us.” You sighed, leaving to grab the mop.
“No Lucky, don’t eat that!”
“I found it!” You cheered, placing the album on the table. Natasha eagerly reached for the album as you climbed into the blanket with her. The two had been home for a month and a half now yours had been filled with laughter, love and enjoying the time you had together.
Clint had gone into town to pick up a few supplies as well as some things for a new project he wanted to start. He’d been gone for a couple of hours and you and Natasha had decided to look through some old photos. Photos from when you just started dating, your wedding day and some that were taken a bit more recently.
“Oh look, it’s when Clint brought Lucky home.” Natasha cooed, scratching the mutt on the head.
“You had us from day one, Pizza Dog.” You said, playing with his paw.
“Speaking of, do you think picked one up?” Natasha asked with a groan. “Should I text him?”
“He’s probably already on his way back.” You said, curling into her side. “Besides it’s Clint, he’s at least bought at least three.” You added with a smile.
“Fair point.” She said, wrapping her arm around you and continuing to flip through the album. “Look it’s when we went to Disney land.”
“That was a good day, though please for me, never dye your hair black and never let Clint dye his red.” You begged, cringing slightly at the photo.
“It was only to keep our covers.” She assured, rubbing your arm.
“Good because I love your hair like this.” You said, running your fingers through the curly red locks.
“Well I love you.” She sweetly said, kissing you on the lips.
“Love you too.” You responded as Lucky began to bark. “Clint’s home.” You commented, Lucky barreling off the bed to greet the man. A quiet bark caused you and Natasha to tilt you head. “Lucky?” You called questioningly.
“Clint, what did you do?” Natasha asked, putting the album to the side. You both made to get out of bed only to freeze as Lucky and Clint walked in, Clint holding a tiny beagle in his arms. “Clint what the hell?” Natasha sighed, staring down at the man.
“I can explain I swear.” Clint said, a guilty look adorning his face. “He was all alone in an alley and these kids were kicking him around. He won’t cause any problems, he’s so sweet and look Lucky likes him.”
“Clint, breath.” You said, interrupting the rambling man. “Bring him over to the bed.” You added, gesturing him over. Clint slowly walked over to bed, puppy excitedly looking around, and passed the little dog to you. “Hi there little guy.” You cooed, raising the pup closer to your face.
“He is cute.” Natasha admitted, scratching him behind the ears. “We still have Lucky’s old bed in the attic right?” She asked, turning to you.
“He doesn’t need a bed, he can stay right here with us.” You said, more to the beagle than Natasha.
“Y/N you know we cant have a puppy in bed. We’re not supposed to coddle them.” She sighed, shaking her head at you.
“Wait, so your not mad?” Clint asked with wide eyes.
“Oh no, your sleeping on the couch.” Natasha said, turning to the man. “I’ve told you to stop bringing strays home.”
“But he’s so sweet.” He attempted to defend himself. “How can you be mad I bought him home?”
“Milo. His name is Milo.” You interrupted, not taking your eyes off Milo who was playing with Lucky.
“Really, Milo?” Clint asked, scrunching his nose at the name.
“If you want any hope of staying in this bed tonight, you won’t say anything about his name.” You warned, narrowing your eyes at the man. Natasha smirked as Clint raised his hands in surrender. 
“Milo it is.” He chirped, jumping off the bed. “Because you two are the best wives a man could ask for and so accepting no matter what I do, I got you lunch.” He said, beginning to leave the room.
“It better be pizza, Clinton.” 
“Of course it is, what kind of a person do you think I am? Pizza and the coffee you both like.”
“You’re back in the bed tonight.” Natasha said causing the man to cheer slightly. Clint was balancing the boxes of pizza and tray on top of each other as he came back into the room. He stopped in the doorway to smile at the sight of his favorite people.
The two of you were curled into each other playing with the two dogs, both of whom were fascinated by the shine of your diamond skin, smiling so brightly he was nearly blinded and not because of the light bouncing off your skin. 
Watching Natasha finally be able to relax and be at ease in her environment was always a welcome sight and seeing you comfortable in your skin, in all it’s many forms, made his heart melt. This was definitely where he felt at ease.
This was home and he was sure glad to be here. Maybe they’d have to extend their holiday a little more.

It’s not a problem until she grabs the attention of the IT guy. Warning(s): Age-gap of five years [Masterlist] [Mini masterlist]
Tumblr media
Taeil and I walk into a chicken restaurant and a pair of hands shoot up, waving enthusiastically at us. 
He drags me all the way down the back until we arrive at a table with three guys already sitting at it, enjoying their beers and snacks. 
“Aye”, the guys cheer as they see Taeil and give him each a hug with a big smile. 
I stand awkwardly at the back until one guy notices me and holds out his hand for me to shake with a wide smile. He kind of reminds me of a titan of AOT. 
“Hi, nice to meet you! I’m Nakamoto Yuta”, he says brightly as we shake hand. 
“Nice to meet you too! My name’s (Y/n) (Y/l/n).”
“Oh, we know”, says one teasingly as he nudges the one sitting next to him. 
Taeil rolls his eyes as he pushes a chair back for me to sit on. I thank him while removing my coat and hanging it on the backrest. Taeil takes a seat on the right of me, doing some weird handshake with the guy in front of him.
“I mean, who wouldn’t talk none stop when a cute foreign girl walks into their life?” 
A blush creeps on my cheeks as I look at Taeil. He avoids my eyes as his ears turn in a bright shade of red. 
He coughs. “Those two idiots are Doyoung and Sicheng, but we call him Winwin. You already met Yuta.”
I nod politely to the two other guys with a slight smile. Winwin gives me a small have and Doyoung winks. 
“So you’re colleagues with our resident old man?”, asks Winwin with a smug smile. 
Taeil scoffs and gives him a push on his shoulder. 
I laugh. “Yes, I am. I work in a different department as him.” I take a sip of my water.
A waitress comes for our orders and everyone lists what they want before she turns towards me. 
“For me... the boneless chicken coated in honey-lemon.”
She nods while writing it down on her notepad. “What would you like to drink with that.”
“Just coke is fine.” I smile uncomfortably as she nods again and turns away.
“Typically, people would take some beer with that”, says Doyoung. “Are you legal to drink alcohol?”
I nod quickly. “Of course. I’m just not a big fan of beer, that’s why. I rather have a pina colada or Pisang with 7up.” I smile slightly at the thought of a cold glass of that.
“And that is...?”, questions Doyoung with raises eyebrows. 
“You guys don’t know what Pisang is? I guess that you don’t have it here... But Pisang is a banana flavoured liquor that’s way too sweet to have it without mixing it. Mixed, it kind of tastes like these little green frog sweets. Just really sweet.”
Yuta hums. “Sounds delicious.”
“Right!”, I beam and high five him.
“You must really miss home”, says Doyoung while popping some food in his mouth, 
While I grab the chopsticks of the table, I hum. “Kind of? I mean, as much that I miss my family and friends, I just love the freedom of living on my own, you know.” 
“So, you share a house with roommates?”, asks Taeil interested as he leans back and puts his arm over the back of my chair. 
With a laugh, I shake my head. “I wish. I still live with my parents since I am too you to live on my own.”
They all look at me dumbfounded. 
“You live with your parents?” Yuta frowns while looking at Winwin next to him. 
“Lucky you, my parents kicked me out when I finished college and had a stable job”, grumbles Doyoung with a pout. 
Winwin nods in agreement. “Enjoy as long as it lasts.”
“We just redone the whole house, including my room. I don’t want to leave.” I look down sadly with a big pout. 
Taeil softly mumbles ‘cute’ under his breath before pinching my cheeks. 
I let out a high whine and push his hand away. “I am not cute.”
The guys coo and I frown. “If you all are going to be like this, I could better leave.”
“That would be a shame of your chicken”, says the waitress as she places my plate with delicious looking chicken on it.
My mouth waters already by the sight of the chicken. “Oh my god, you are right”, I laugh and she winks while placing the rest of the dishes and side dishes on the table.
We thank her and the guys begin to stuff their faces with chicken. 
“You have to taste the kimchi here, it’s delicious.” Taeil picks up a bit of kimchi with his chopsticks and holds it up to my mouth. 
I lick lips before opening my mouth, letting Taeil feed me. As I chew, the different kinds of flavours explode in my mouth. 
“Woah!”, I exclaim as my eyes lid up. “This is by far the best kimchi I ever tasted. Please don’t tell my neighbour, Mrs Do. She will murder me if I ever admit her kimchi isn’t the best in the world.”  I send a wink towards the boys and they chuckle.
Taeil laughs loudly and zips his mouth, throwing the key over his shoulder.
A giggle escapes my lips and I push against his shoulder.
“Not to ruin your cute moment, but, as a foreigner (Y/n), what is the most confusing or difficult thing about moving to Korea”, asks Winwin as he points with his chopsticks.
“Frikking Konglish, man. If I say ice cream, just the English way, nobody will understand what I am saying. But if I say iceu creameu, y’all know what I mean. It really blows my mind. Also the whole thing with age. I kinda get it, you need to show respect to people who are older than you but what’s up with just being friends, regardless their age?”
“I had some trouble with the whole honorifics”, says Yuta and I nod with big eyes. 
“Or just how you have to say something to someone and what you can and can’t do”, adds Winwin. 
“Exactly”, I point out before turning to Doyoung and Taeil. “How do you guys do it.”
They both share a look while shrugging. “Just years and years of practise.”
Tumblr media
After we ate and Winwin, Yuta, and I complained about things in Korea, we paid and left for the mall. 
“Please, why didn’t you let me pay for you?”, whines Taeil as we walk behind the three other guys. 
“Because I would feel bad about it. Don’t worry about it, okay? I am a big girl.” I reassuringly grab Taeil’s hand and smile at him, searching his eyes. 
He nods slowly while looking down at our hands.
As Yuta calls me over, I let go of his hand and hurry towards him as he points at something cute. 
I don’t see how Taeil’s face falls as he sees me running towards his friend and standing really close to him. 
“A bit jealous, aren’t we?”, asks Doyoung with a smug smile as he nudges Taeil’s shoulder. 
“Pff what? No! Am not!”
Doyoung hums while rolling his eyes. “Yeah sure, hyung. When was the last time you asked someone else to our hangouts?”
Taeil bites his lips as he watches the brunette interact happily. He... doesn’t know why he asked her. He just knew he wanted (Y/n) to come, to spend more time with her.
“You’re--”, he sighs, “you’re right. I don’t know why, to be honest. My thumbs acted on my own when I texted her.”
Doyoung stops his friend. “Are you gonna act on your feelings?”
Taeil looks at me, as I look at him and wave, pointing at a cute dog I see and signing him to come. 
“I don’t know, okay? Just, let me think about it”, he says hushedly before walking towards me. 
“Oh my god, it’s so cute”, I squeal as I crouch down and hug the Shiba Inu. I squeeze its cheeks and the owner laughs heartily. 
“Come, before you smother the pup with kisses.” Taeil lightly pulls my arm and I get up, apologizing to the dog’s owner. 
“Don’t apologize, dear. I find it very endearing to see such a reaction.”
I thank the owner and wave goodbye to the Shiba. 
“Do you have a dog?”, asks Taeil and I nod. 
“Two. A beagle and a french bulldog”, I beam proudly while pulling my phone out of my pocket and showing him pictures of them.
“They're my babies. I was very sad I had to leave and say goodbye to them for half a year.”
Doyoung’s head peaks over our shoulders and I also show him and the others my darlings. 
“The beagle’s name is Peanut and the french bulldog’s name is Ziggy”, I beam proudly. 
“Taeil has a dog too. A Samoyed”, says Winwin with a snicker before Taeil hits him on the back of his head. 
“Don’t be mean, Bong Bong is a good dog.”
“Can I see a picture?”, I ask with big eyes as he grabs his phone. 
I coo as I see the cutest, fluffiest, whitest dog there is on earth. “Oh my god, I am in love! Your dog is the cutest!” 
A bight smile grows on his face as his eyes begin to twinkle with excitement. “Do you want to see her when she was a puppy?” 
My eyes grow big at the thought of a small walking cloud. “Please”, I plead with clasped hands. 
Taeil swipes a couple times on his phone before opening a picture folder filled with adorable pictures of his Samoyed. 
He lets me swipe through the folder and at every photo my heart melt more and more.
“I would die for Bong Bong”, I say while eyeing a cute puppy photo of the waling cloud.  
“Do you want to meet her someday?”
My jaw falls slack at just those simple words. “Can I?” 
Taeil chuckles while squeezing my cheeks. “Of course!”
Out of pure happiness, I hug Taeil with the biggest smile on my face. 
I feel Taeil’s arms hesitantly wrapping around me as he leans with his chin on my head. 
Tumblr media
“I had so much fun, you guys”, I smile as we say our goodbye’s. 
Yuta pulls me into a hug. I blink surprised while patting his back. 
“You’re part of the gang now so you get a hug goodbye”, says Doyoung before he also hugs me, followed by Winwin. 
I smile brightly and wave them goodbye as they walk towards the metro. 
“Ready to go?”, asks Taeil as I turn around with a big smile. 
We walk down the street, towards the parking garage and I shiver as the temperature has dropped significantly since the sun has set. 
Taeil notices me hugging my arms and rubbing them for some warmth. He chuckles and shakes his head. “Why didn’t you bring a thicker jacket?”
I roll my eyes. “I didn’t think it would cool down this much”, I defend myself with a pout. “And it would ruin the aesthetic of my outfit.”
He shakes his head, stopping me and makes me take off my jacket. Taeil pulls his sweater over his head. “Here”, he says as he takes my jacket out of my hands and replaces it with his sweater, “wear that.”
I frown. “What about you? Won’t you be cold?”, I question, eying his thin shirt. 
Taeil sighs and pushes his sweater over my head, making sure my arms are through the sleeves and he pulls up the hood.  
I look down and smile at how large and soft the hoody is. 
We resume walking towards the car in comfortable silence as I look up every now and then from the ground to admire Taeil’s features in the city lights.
“Did you have fun?”, he asks when we arrive at the car.
I hum. “Your friends are really nice”, I say while placing my shopping bags in the trunk, next to my backpack
Taeil insisted on buying me something because he couldn’t pay for my dinner. So he bought me three little cactuses for on my kitchen windowsill.
“They are now. Wait until you know them a little bit better and they will tease you to no end.” Taeil smiles fondly while getting on the driver’s side. 
“Isn’t it a lot smarter if I drive? Didn’t you drink like two bottles of beer?”, I ask concerned. 
He shakes his head. “Don’t you worry, I can drive. Can you even drive?”
I raise my brows. “Yeah, of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t ask, would I?”
Taeil nods as he rubs his eyes. “I mean like sure? But that would still mean I have to drive home.”
“You can crash on the couch. I have brought some extra blankets and pillows from home. And the couch sleeps pretty nice, better than my bed.” I look at him with a cock of my head. 
He sighs. “Sure... But what about Bong Bong?” 
“We can pick her up and bring her to my place. Or... I know a better plan. I will drive to your place and take the subway home.”
“Absolutely not!”, shrieks Taeil with wide eyes. 
I lean slightly back with a hurt look on my face. “Why... why not?” 
“Because it’s half-past ten, (Y/n), that’s why. This isn’t like your town back home, this is Seoul we’re talking about. Creeps are lurking around every corner.”
I fold my arms over each other and chew on the inside of my cheek. “What is your plan then?”
Taeil drums his fingers against the steering wheel. 
“You can... you can also stay the night at my place? I will drive you home tomorrow.”
I lick my lips, thinking about the options. Going home alone at eleven o’clock and probably being stalked by a weird dude. Or be safe and stay over at Taeil’s. 
“Fine”, I sigh. “I’ll stay over at your place.”
Taeil nods with a faint smile and gets out of the car, letting me sit behind the wheel. I take a deep breath in and out before turning around the key in the contact. Here goes nothing.

Survey #279
“she could kill you with a wink of her eye.”
Have you ever met a guy for coffee? No, I don’t like coffee. Do you feed your leftovers to your dogs?

A couple times. When was the last time you wanted to cry, but didn’t, because you didn’t want to show that you were upset? Why? I’m really not sure.

Mom is there a lot. And sure, doesn’t everyone? Instead of flat earth, what do you think of the simulated earth theory, that we’re basically all just a giant computer program or virtual reality?

Considering I’m the polar opposite, no. Prefer being in control in a team environment, helping out, or taking orders? Help out. Do you like carrot cake? GIRL yes. Do you view animals as being just as important as people? Why or why not? Yes, because we have no greater right than them to be here. Hell, they’re probably more deserving with humanity’s selfishness. I’m aware as a meat eater there’s some hypocrisy here, buuut still in my heart I see them as just as valuable. What made you stop talking to the last person you cut out of your life? She made an absolutely infuriating, false assumption of my mother. Is there a situation or person you haven’t been able to get over/forgive? I’ve forgiven him. Forgetting’s a different story. What are you like during arguments? Regardless of the topic or severity, I will absolutely be fumbling over my words, stuttering, and find eye contact difficult. It’s definitely not rare that I’ll be crying. Where do you like to be kissed? WELL this depends on the mood y’know. What is more difficult for you, looking into someone’s eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someone’s eyes when they are telling you how they feel? I dunno, both can be very hard. Think of the last time you were REALLY angry. WHY were you angry? Do you still feel the same way? It’s petty and I’d rather not give it the time of day. But I still am kind of angry, though I shouldn’t be. There is a fire in the back of the plane. You have enough time to make ONE phone call. Who do you call? What do you tell them? Why is this so oddly specific lol. But anyway, Mom, and that I love her. Would you rather be hurt by the one you trust the most or the one you love the most? The one I trust the most. Think of the last person who you know that died. You have the chance to give them one hour of life back, but you have to give up one year of yours. Do you do it? Why or why not? No, because she was miserable. When was the last time you told someone HONESTLY how you felt regardless of how difficult it was for you to say? Who was it? What did you have to tell the person? I don’t know. What do you think would be the hardest thing for you to give up? Why would it be hard to lose? Sara. Her friendship means a fucking lot to me. Excluding romantic love, when was the last time you told someone you loved them. Who were they to you? Yesterday to my mom. Are you old fashioned? HA, definitely not. Have you ever gone up to a car thinking it was yours and tried to get in it? Oh my god yes. What’s your most irrational fear? There are plenty of them that I have. Whale sharks lmao.

If it was Girt, it’d be a yeah, we haven’t hung out in forever. Do you have alcohol in your house? No. Have you or anyone you know been to rehab? I’m sure someone has. Have you ever swung on a tire swing? I think I have at least once. What’s a discontinued product you wish they still made? Damn, I know there are some, but they’re not coming to me. Have you ever been involved in Facebook drama? Yes. Actually told a motherfucker off a few days back that claimed there was “something wrong” with Breonna Taylor and her death was justifiable. I.

I absolutely thought a we were going to get in a wreck or die. Then I have anxiety and have experienced panic attacks, so… guess lmao. Who’s one person who changed how you viewed something? One of the most profound in my life is actually Rhett and Link as well as Hannah Hart. When I started watching GMM, I was actually still homophobic, but gradually I started to ship the fuck out of those angel boys despite it. I started questioning my viewpoint, and finally, on their podcast where Hannah was the guest, telling her personal LGBT story, it just clicked how disgustingly wrong I was. When was the last time you went to a bar? I’ve never been to one. Why did you last see the doctor? I’m going to assume you mean a doctor for physical reasons, in which case I went in to talk about if I qualified for a sleep study regarding my nightmares, only to be told that because my actual doctor was absent, she could do nothing. Sooo Mom and I walked in pretty much just to pay someone to say “wait.” How do you spend the majority of your free time? Something on the computer, I’m sure. Lately, what I’ve been doing most is playing WoW while watching/listening to something. List the cards in your wallet. I don’t care enough to look. Not a lot. What was the last thing to inspire you? Ummm idk. How has COVID affected you? It really hasn’t, other than giving me anxiety regarding my mom as she is in the “of most concern” demographic, if you will. We don’t know if her cancer is gone yet due to the whole emergency trip to NY. But yeah, I personally leave the house like… never, so my daily life hasn’t really had any deviations. What is a comfort show of yours? Hm. I share enough that I’m not a TV person, so I don’t really seek out a show when I need comfort. But I guess if I was sitting there with the remote and I was really down, I’d be happy to find That ‘70s Show. Do you think we were put on this earth for a reason? As I believe *some* sort of greater intelligence is responsible for the universe, I like to think so. But if not, make your own reason. What is something you have done this year you’re proud of? I’ve been home alone for over a month now and am somehow doing okay, taking care of the house and myself. Animal Crossing , yay or nay? I’ve never played it. Not of my interest in games. Do you think breaks are toxic in a relationship? “Breaks” are bullshit. You’re either together or you’re not.

MY FLOWER
"Byul, aren't you taking too many things with you? Ah, Byul?” Of Yongsun flopped down on the bed younger. She rested her head in her hands and watched curiously as her couple went to visit their parents for a couple of days.
"Believe me, no. Three t-shirts and some underwear, " Moon laughed and winked at the older woman.
She immediately zipped up a small leather backpack and jumped on the bed to the eldest and leaned on top of her, putting her head on her shoulder. She made a cute pug, and Moon persuaded Kim to give herself a kiss. On the cheek, on the other, on the lips.
"Will you miss me?"  Moon puffed out her hamster cheeks prettily.
"God, Buyl, you're going away for a week." Sometimes the youngest was such a child. "Of course I will," and Solar kissed her again on the lips.
Their love was so sweet, everyone noted it. Especially when they were on their own. The girls kissed, hugged and beat each other, of course, joking. They could mock and be offended, but reconciliation in the face of a delicious dinner was not long in coming.
"I'll call you every day," Yongsun said, stroking someone else's hair out of a careless bun. Moonbyul was still embarrassed by such actions, therefore, her cheeks flushed.
Solar laughed and poked her on the cheek, then kissed the offended one. Not like, Moonbyul when it was called these fluffy, chubby and cute little animal. It didn't fit with her role as a rapper.
"And you're a dog," the younger one said, wrinkling her nose and getting another poke.
"Yes, Beagle," the older woman laughed.
“I want to eat, the sun, let's go for lunch?”
There was only a nod. And they went to the kitchen, where they made ramen. Their eating was also accompanied by light kisses, hugs, and silly jokes. But as soon as the noodles were finished, Solar put the kettle on, and Moon called a taxi to the station.
Yes, they are very famous in Korea and have earned many prestigious awards. But Munbyul is too fond of trains, she thinks such trips are too romantic, especially when you just sit and look at the passing scenery. She would like to ride like this with Solar, but first her parents need to prepare for the fact that her soulmate is a girl.
Tea was drunk along with crunchy cookies. Munbyul slung her backpack over her shoulder, put on her jacket, and put on her shoes. Solar hugged her tightly and kissed her.
"Have a good trip and make sure you call," the older woman said with a wink. Byul kissed her on the cheek, snapped her nose, and left the house. Solar closed the door.
***
“Take it, my daughter, finally,” Mother hugged the girl. The daughter laughed and kissed the woman on the cheek, because she missed her. "Let's go inside, we have a surprise for you." Moonbyul, seize the backpack, then followed. She immediately took off her clothes and took off her jacket. They were waiting for her in the dining room.
“Byul!”  two girls jumped up from their seats and ran to hug their older sister.
"Seulgi, Yesol," Byul laughed. She missed them as much as she missed her mother. She saw her father sometimes, but still clung to him as soon as the girls pulled away.
“Girls, let the sister sit down already, “ pompously protested mother, and all giggled.
Moon quickly climbed to the second floor in her old room. There everything remained as before, even on the walls hung a little wrinkled posters of idols, the same Super Junior sonbae or H. O. T. Moonbyul, as a teenager, loved them very much. She put her backpack on the floor and ran her finger over the Desk, which was filled with figures and toys. Not an ounce of dust - she can see that her mother is cleaning up here anyway. The bed was covered with a new blanket and fluffy pillows. There were still pictures of little girl, her sisters, and Mamamoo on the shelves.
“Byul, you have been gone too long,”- Yesol already was eating a salad when everyone had empty plates. "Are you lost?"
"Yesol," said Seulgi frowning. "Take it, mom, dad, Taeyoun and I wanted to tell you something," and only now did Byul notice that a guy was at the table with them. Probably a pair of sister. She was worried about what her fingers were saying. "We invite you to our wedding," everyone shouted, congratulating the young people. Moonbuyl this guy didn't know him, but she was happy with all, still my favourite sister is getting married.
"By the way, you haven't met yet, have you? Take it, meet Taeyoun. Tae this is my sister, Take, more, of course, known as Moonbuyl,” they shook hands.
"I know. I've been to your concert. It's really cool there. Yes, and you there so beautiful was” Byul smiled and crinkled his nose. "That's where we met, by the way."
“Yes, it was an interesting meeting, “ they told this story. Moonbyul did not even know that their concerts connect hearts. She needs to tell the girls.
Evening their was a lot of fun. All laughed, laughed and listened to various stories, especially many of them told Byul, because the idols life is very interesting. The girl was still actively gesticulating, and at one point she shook her head so that something pinched her neck. She squeaked, clutching at a sore spot.
"Byul, take your hands off and relax your shoulders," the guy said. He walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders. And his hands are so warm. Taeyoun began to stretch her neck with careful movements of his hands.
"Oh, thank you, I'm getting old." Even bones are aching, Byul, again, caused a General laugh. Taeyoun, having done everything to the end, returned to his seat.
“I just have an older brother, and he works as a dancer. So I learned to do massages to help him.”
“ Brother there is, as interestingly…”
***
Moonbyul was very tired from the long ride, so as soon as her head touched the soft pillow, she was immediately confused. And she was not even embarrassed by the fact that solar didn't call her. The dream promised to be as sweet as a baby's. mother, who looked into the room, kissed her eldest daughter on the forehead, tucked a soft blanket. Byul only smiled and rolled over on the other side (as she usually slept in the arms of solar).
But she couldn't sleep properly. A sharp pain shot through her neck, causing her to Wake up. Moonbul hissed, afraid to Wake the others. The new flash was slightly lower. The girl ran her hand over it and felt for a sprout. After enduring the unbearable pain that made her want to climb the wall, she plucked the flower. Forget-me-not, the most real. Forget-me-not is a symbol of soulmate's sympathy for another person, especially since you can find out exactly what feelings are caused by the couple by the degree of pain. A slight tingling sensation - there is no reason for jealousy. Sympathy only in a friendly context. But the more painful it is, the more likely it is that soulmate is being taken away.  They sometimes appeared on Byul’s body, but she did not attach any importance to this, she trusted The older one too much. There are too many colors. What does she do there?
The pain was moving lower and lower and had already reached his chest. Moon couldn't stand it any longer, she wanted to howl like a wolf, so she got up and went to the kitchen for pills. She didn't want to Wake anyone. Byul threw her head back, closed her eyes, and plucked a flower from her breast. It was no longer a forget-me-not. Tulips-a messenger of deep sympathy, love. They are much more painful and unpleasant. The pain was no longer tolerable, it increased in frequency and intensity, and Moonbuyl’s eyes were filled with tears. Adding one and one is not difficult, so she understands EXACTLY what her sun is doing. Moon closed her eyes heavily and gripped the table. She seemed to be surrounded by something very dense, a shell through which it was very difficult to hear something. Her feet were leaden and stuck to the floor.
That's why she didn't notice her mother running into the kitchen, worried. The woman sat, or rather, laid her daughter on the sofa in the living room and brought her cold water with painkillers, taking a sedative for herself.
The pill helped her. The pain finally subsided and became less demanding. She sat up, looking out the window at the moonless night, trying to find answers to her questions.
“Mom, thank you for caring,” girl forced, but smiled warmly and put his hands on the attacked flowers in the stomach.
"Why don't I stay with you? What if it gets worse? "there was no need to ask questions now.
Byul got up and tried to walk to her room, but her mind left her.

Fictober 2019, Oct. 7th, “No, And That’s Final.”
Fanfiction
Fandom: The Pacific
Pairings: Eugene “Sledgehammer” Sledge/Merriell “Snafu” Shelton, Mary Phillips/Sidney “Sid” Phillips
Warnings: None
Rating: G
853 words
Things I love writing: my favorite characters and cute animals, hence, this fic. For a bit of background, in my fic canon Eugene and Snafu have a grand total of six pets: a dog named Ack Ack, and five cats named Gunner, Queen, Little Sid, Delilah, and Deacon.
“We can’t,” Eugene sighed. 
“Why not, what’s one more?” Snafu asked, holding the tiny beagle puppy gently in his hands.
“We already have Ack Ack, Gunner, Little Sid, Delilah, Deacon, and Queen. That’s six animals,” Eugene protested. 
“Where else is he gonna go?” the beagle gave a yawn bigger than his body as Snafu spoke, making them both pause and smile. 
“I’m sorry, but no, and that’s final,” Eugene sighed as he reached over and pet the puppy’s head softly. “But I think I know of a home for him.” 
“Where?” Snafu asked. “Puppies are a lot of a work to take on...” 
“We haven’t given Sid and Mary a house-warming gift yet,” he replied. 
“You really think they’ll say yes? They just moved in to their new place, might not want to worry about havin’ to keep the house clean with a puppy on top of it all,” Snafu moved the puppy gently so it was cradled in his hands, held up against his chest where it snuggled against him happily. 
“I’ve got a good feeling about it. Let’s invite them over for dinner, give them a chance to meet him,” Eugene said, heading to the phone. How they found the little guy would probably be enough to convince them to give the pup a safe home, if they needed convincing at all (which he doubted they would.) 
The puppy had been tossed from a car traveling in front of them that day on the way into town, and if it weren’t for Snafu’s eyes being as sharp on the road as they were on a mortar sight, the pup might have been toast. He was just barely old enough to be away from his mother, and though they both knew a second dog was too much, it was hard not to fall in love with him as he trotted after them in the house, begging for pets and kisses in between trying to convince Ack Ack to play with him. 
Mary and Sid were both animal lovers, and if they told them all that on top of it all, then he was sure they wouldn’t be able to resist him. 
They came over at six sharp, forewarned of a “possible furry housewarming gift” if they decided they wanted and were ready for him. 
They weren’t halfway through the front door before Sid had caught sight of the puppy, and dashed inside to scoop him up. 
“Is he for us?” Sid asked as the puppy licked his face, tail wagging as hard as it possibly could. 
“If you want him, he’s yours,” Snafu replied, laughing. “I was worried y’all might not want to take on the responsibility of a puppy, but-” 
“Why not?” Sid interrupted, almost cooing as he kissed the puppy’s tiny head. “He’s perfect.” 
“He is,” Mary smiled as she stepped inside so Eugene could shut and lock the door. “Thank you, boys. Now, Sid, you’re going to love the kids we have someday that much too, aren’t you?” 
“Course,” Sidney replied, cradling the puppy gently like a baby. “They won’t be as cute, of course.”
Mary only shook her head and laughed as they went to sit down for dinner, the three of them barely able to convince Sid to let the puppy back onto the floor for the duration of it. 
After, they let the dogs out in the backyard to run, Sid dashing after the puppy and playing with it was if he was just another extra big, over-excited dog. 
“Any ideas on a name?” Eugene asked as he served tea to himself, Snafu, and Mary, leaving a fourth glass full for Sid. 
“Not sure. But Sid keeps calling him ‘Sugar.’ Might be all he’ll respond to soon,” Mary replied, sipping her tea in between giggles. “And I do mean our thanks, truly. Sid’s been needing something like this. He won’t say it, of course, but...” 
He shared a glance with Snafu. They could about imagine, having their own share of nightmares and other issues after coming home. It could be hard to talk about though, hard to ask for help. If the pup could help Sid, then it was well worth the work of training him. 
“You’re such a good boy, you know that? You’re one of the best dogs ever. C’mere, little sugar, you come sit with me,” Sid was all baby talk and doting, scooping the pup up carefully to sit on his lap as he finally joined them and downed his glass of tea. 
“So...you takin’ Sugar home?” Eugene asked, though he knew he didn’t really need to do so. 
Sid grinned and pressed yet another soft kiss to Sugar’s head. “You can’t stop me.” 
“We’d never think to try,” Snafu replied with a smile. “We already got our zoo, about time to help you start yours.” 
“Not for awhile,” Sid scolded playfully. “Gotta spoil this baby as an only child first.” 
Eugene figured there were a lot of certain, terrible things in the world. It was nice to have something as sweet as Sid spoiling and loving Sugar on that list too.

this isn’t technically hc’s I guess but if each member got a dog what kind do you think they’d get ?
i can see seokjin with a little fluffy dog?? maybe a westie??? like a sweet lil handsome man who he probably buys a bow tie collar for and talks to and about Only like he’s another human
yoongi and a big gentle breed of some kind like maybe a big goofy lab?? probably a girl????? one who he just coos at and makes special nutritious dinners and buys way too big of beds for and lets Sit On Him
OH MY GOD HOSEOK AND A BEAGLE them talking to each other hoseok going “whY ARE U YELLING?” to which she yells back louder, has the coolest collars and crates and leashes and hoseok’s home screen is a pic of her lounging with sunglasses on and a fake lemonade glass in paw
namjoon and a border collie omg!!! an extremely smart boy who knows all kinds of tricks and goes on bike rides with namjoon and for some reason knows an entire dance routine to old town road because namjoon wanted a party trick
jimin with an extra cuddly breed of some kind i can see him with both big and little dogs but just wanting them constantly either underneath his arm or walking along with him or sitting in his lap also they all would be i can see jimin rescuing a mutt who just wants cuddles :-(
even if taehyung didn’t have yeontan i could still see him with a smaller breed that’s relatively sassy but taehyung is completely unaware that the dog is lowkey sassing him if not a Pomeranian maybe like a miniature pinscher or a dachshund or a corgi 
jeongguk and a golden retriever SEND TWEET it’d probably be like marley and me like the dog would not listen to him at all and guk would just grin while he shreds his hundred dollar flip flops because :-) you’re so cute :-) i love you and your destruction :-)

Voltron Pets
A/N - Headcanons for the characters with pets
X
Shiro
⦁ Shiro, likes dogs. ⦁ Big dogs. ⦁ Very big dogs. ⦁ Simba is the biggest Great Dane any of the team has ever seen, including in videos. ⦁ He could very likely crush any of them. ⦁ Pidge is. ⦁ Very cautious. ⦁ But Simba is very gentle with everyone. ⦁ He likes to take people’s hands gently in his mouth and lead them to the jar of dog treats that Shiro keeps on the counter by the stove. ⦁ But Shiro doesn’t just like big dogs. ⦁ He also like teeny tiny dogs. ⦁ And so enters Pip. ⦁ Pip is a Pomeranian. ⦁ Simba is Pip’s bodyguard. ⦁ There’s no seeing one dog without the other close behind, or, more likely, seeing Simba and realizing that Pip is hiding under him when she happily yips at you. ⦁ Simba always gives his treat to Pip if you don’t give her one first. ⦁ Chivalry isn’t dead. ⦁ Apart from his dogs, Shiro also has an old cat who’s missing one of his front legs. ⦁ The cat hated him at first so he named him Grumpy. ⦁ Eventually the two find a compromise though. ⦁ Compromise, as in, Shiro feeds Grumpy until Grumpy finally trusts him. ⦁ More often than not, Grumpy is now seen hanging around Shiro’s neck. ⦁ Shiro’s favorite part of the day is falling into bed and having his pets each curl up in their designated spots. ⦁ Pip - On his Chest ⦁ Simba - Over his legs ⦁ Grumpy - Behind his head.
Keith
⦁ Boy is an animal magnet. ⦁ No one knows why, but he attracts at least one animal every time he leaves his place. ⦁ Which means, lots of pets and most of which he has no idea where they came from. ⦁ “Hey Keith, is that a new cat?” ⦁ “Her name is Starburst and she likes candy wrappers.” ⦁ “Where’d she come from, though?” ⦁ “…Outside.” ⦁ “Of course.” ⦁ He doesn’t spoil his pets as much as any of the others, not with stuff at least. ⦁ His pets are all adored though. ⦁ They’re all chipped the moment they decide to stick around because Keith can’t bare the thought of losing any of them. ⦁ All of his pets are suspiciously well behaved. ⦁ Like, even the cats hear Keith say “sit” and they plop down. ⦁ Everyone thinks Keith can communicate with them and even if he assures them it’s not true, ten minutes later he’ll ask a dog (the oldest, Gandolf) to help him clean up the dog toys and he does. ⦁ So either Keith can talk to animals or he’s a witch. ⦁ Again, another ongoing joke. ⦁ All of the pets are named after food and movie/book/comic characters. ⦁ No one is surprised anymore, but they also have no idea how he keeps all the names straight. ⦁ Keith is literally the only person able to keep all his pets’ names straight and everyone else just has to guess fifty percent of the time. ⦁ “That’s not Toast, that’s Cinnamon.” ⦁ “How?” ⦁ He loves his pets a lot and never really pays any mind to comments about having “too many.” ⦁ He keeps them all healthy and happy and that’s all that matters to him. ⦁ Don’t tell anyone, but he attracts them by keeping catnip and dog treats in his pockets. ⦁ No one needs to know that though.
Lance
⦁ Exact opposite of an animal magnet. ⦁ It’s not that they don’t like him, because he is a good person and they can tell. ⦁ They just don’t respect him enough to listen when he tells them not to run off. ⦁ Because any cats he tries to keep scale the fence and any dogs will dig their way out of the yard, he ends up with some pets less likely to run off (normally to join Keith’s hoard). ⦁ First, he ends up with a cockatiel named Casanova. ⦁ Casanova adores Lance. ⦁ But, not as much as he adores women. ⦁ This bird will straight up flirt with any woman that enters his line of sight. ⦁ Allura and Pidge are one hundred percent sure that it’s Lance’s fault, but he didn’t do it! ⦁ The bird was like that when he got him! ⦁ He swears! ⦁ Casanova doesn’t just flirt with human women though! ⦁ He flirts with any girl animal too. ⦁ So, when Lance finally caves and decides to try his hand at keeping a dog and he adopts Annie the dachshund, Casanova is ecstatic! ⦁ Annie and Casanova become quick friends and Lance swears that Casanova is the only reason Annie doesn’t run off. ⦁ He’s not, Annie loves Lance. ⦁ Lance also gets a few fish. ⦁ A betta and some of the more flashy looking ones. ⦁ He names them all after sushi types. ⦁ Casanova like to steal the fish food from the top of the water if Lance forgets to close it after he feeds the fish. ⦁ Casanova also likes to get into Annie’s treats and throw them to her. ⦁ Casanova is a fiend.
Hunk
⦁ He has a huge saint bernard/husky mix named Sugar and a tiny calico cat named Spice. ⦁ Everyone is lowkey terrified of Sugar when they first see her, but the moment she sees them her face just lights up! ⦁ Sugar loves people! ⦁ She’s made slightly scarier by a rough scar across her left eye, but it’s hardly visible once you get used to her presence. ⦁ Everyone quickly realizes that she’s as much of an angel as her owner is. ⦁ There’s a inside joke that Hunk and Sugar are twins. ⦁ When they both get excited at the same time, everyone swears they can hardly tell the difference. ⦁ Spice is a fairly shy cat, but she sticks to Sugar’s side. ⦁ Even though Spice is a sweet cat, people frequently think the opposite on account of the glare she seems to give them when first meeting Sugar. ⦁ Spice is older than Sugar and mothers her despite the size difference. ⦁ Both Sugar and Spice are rescued animals! ⦁ Spice was a street cat before Hunk started feeding her. ⦁ After she slipped into the house without him noticing and he woke to glowing eyes staring at him, he took her to the vet and got all of the necessities needed to give her a life of luxury. ⦁ Sugar was a sickly pup in a pound when Hunk adopted her. ⦁ Her picture was in a paper he just briefly saw and she was scheduled for being put to sleep. ⦁ That was absolutely not happening! ⦁ Sugar thinks that she’s a lap dog and frequently jumps on Hunk’s lap. ⦁ That’s all well and good, the problem arises when she jumps on the laps of people visiting. ⦁ That’s a lot of dog! ⦁ Spice likes to curl up on Hunk’s stomach and abandons her fancy bed the moment the opportunity presents itself. ⦁ Both of Hunk’s pets are spoiled. ⦁ He makes them homemade food. ⦁ They get treats for being cute. ⦁ They probably have their own bank accounts.   ⦁ They’re living a better life than me.
Pidge
⦁ She loves fluffy animals. ⦁ Big, small, doesn’t matter. ⦁ She wants pets soft enough to use as pillows. ⦁ Not that she uses them as pillows, but she just really loves fluffy animals, alright? ⦁ She has a trio of bunnies, June, July, and August, who behave more like dogs than bunnies. ⦁ They behave like dogs because Darcy, Pidge’s chow-mix, took in the little buns when their mother got attacked by a neighborhood stray. ⦁ Darcy had lost a few of her own pups before this incident and Pidge awoke one day to find that two babies had turned to five. ⦁ Darcy is very protective of her family, and that includes Pidge. ⦁ She may seem like a sweetheart, but she won’t stand for anything happening to her person or her babies. ⦁ In the spirit of keeping all the babies name’s matching, the pups are named April and May. ⦁ As the babies get older, momma Darcy and Pidge have to make sure the puppies don’t get too rough with the bunnies. ⦁ Fortunately, the pups father was a fairly small mutt, and they take after him. ⦁ (Their father probably stuck around until Keith came for a visit and then followed him home.) ⦁ (You’re not fooling her, Keith, she knows you carry dog treats.) ⦁ (If you try to take any more of her dogs she’s going to rat you out.) ⦁ Pidge is the kind of person who takes in any injured animal she comes across too, but they tend to be wild birds, so they get released as soon as they’re better. ⦁ She has an army of crows. ⦁ The only animals Keith won’t even try to bribe love out of.
Allura
⦁ She has her mice, a white cat named Boo, and two white budgies named Bippity and Boppity. ⦁ Bippity, Boppity, and Boo were a package deal. ⦁ Their owner couldn’t care for them anymore and Allura quickly took the opportunity to add the three to her home. ⦁ Boo was raised indoors and, despite her fears, has adapted to being a perch for the birds and a moving playground for the mice. ⦁ Bippity and Boppity will repeat “pretty bird, pretty bird,” every morning until Allura acknowledges them. ⦁ The birds enjoy sitting in Allura’s hair too! ⦁ Boppity likes to tease Boo. ⦁ She also likes to tease anyone new who enters the house. ⦁ She has pooped in Lance’s hair and no one will let him forget. ⦁ He’s entirely sure that the bird has a vendetta against him. ⦁ Meanwhile, Bippity is a sweetheart to absolutely anyone! ⦁ If anyone whistles her a tune, she repeats it in kind, adding in little hops and head bobs. ⦁ Any first meeting with Bippity is filled with “kiss, kiss"es and "muah"s. ⦁ Boo frequently grooms the mice and curls around them when she finds them sleeping. ⦁ Most of the time, the mice sleep in Boo’s fur, however, so she never has to search for them. ⦁ Her pets are moderately spoiled. ⦁ Bippity and Boppity have an extra large bird cage, segmented and placed so one side is covered and shaded and the other is directly by a window. ⦁ Boo has a high quality cat bed, the best food and treats recommended by vets, a fancy litter box, and a large cat tree directly in front of a window. ⦁ All of the animals have more toys than they know what to do with. ⦁ Frequently, Allura will curl up on the sofa beside the bird cage after a long day and Boo and her mice will join for a family nap.
Coran
⦁ Of course he has a schnauzer. ⦁ That’s canon by now, right? ⦁ ANYWAY. ⦁ Sir. Bruce is a fairly old dog that Coran was gifted by the team. ⦁ He adores Bruce with everything he has. ⦁ Everyone assumes that Coran can speak to animals too. ⦁ Not all animals, like they assume with Keith, but his pets in particular. ⦁ After Coran discovers the joy of having a dog, he’s obsessed with them. ⦁ He ends up with five dogs. ⦁ The first dog he adopts himself is a tiny Yorkie pup named Patty. ⦁ Then come Scottie and Sarah the Beagles. ⦁ Finally, he adopts another schnauzer named Patricia. ⦁ (He doesn’t understand why everyone loses it when he yells “Patricia!”) ⦁ Patricia is a troublemaker, but she’s incidentally also the one with the best puppy-dog eyes. ⦁ Scottie trips over his ears all the time, so Coran uses hair ties to keep his ears up. ⦁ Patty is always tripping Bruce by getting in front of him, and, as the runt of both her famly and her litter, he doesn’t see her when he’s in a hurry. ⦁ Sir. Bruce and Patty are the best of friends, though. ⦁ Sarah is the the angel of the group. ⦁ No one ever hears her bark or growl, and she never makes a mess. ⦁ That is, that visitors see. ⦁ She will look Coran straight in the eyes and knock over the water bowls. ⦁ Yes, plural. ⦁ She loves knocking over the water bowls and Coran does not know why. ⦁ He loves his dogs too much to stay angry for too long.
Lotor
⦁ This man is extra. ⦁ He couldn’t settle for simple house pets, oh no, this man had to get a horse. ⦁ His horse loves him so much though. ⦁ Obsidian is a pure black Friesian horse. ⦁ Everyone thinks she’s gorgeous (because she is) but they love her even more because she’s an absolute sweetheart. ⦁ God help anyone who tries to ride her though. ⦁ No one has and no one will. ⦁ Lotor doesn’t see the point in riding a horse, so she’s just a really big pet. ⦁ He’d probably let her in his house if he could, to be honest. ⦁ Because Lotor is Extra, he also has two purebred cats. ⦁ An Abyssinian cat and a Bengal. ⦁ Both of the cats are spoiled rotten. ⦁ They’re absolute drama queens and no one can even lightly brush against them by accident without the cats acting like they were attacked. ⦁ Even Lotor gets this treatment. ⦁ He’s not quite a cat dad, but he’s toeing the line. ⦁ There is video evidence of Lotor baby talking the cats and it’s being held as blackmail material.
Matt
⦁ BIRDS. ⦁ He loves birds. ⦁ Going into his house is like going into a bird house in a zoo. ⦁ He has five finches. ⦁ He takes inspiration from the names Pidge gives her pets and names the finches after the days of the week. ⦁ But he doesn’t stop there. ⦁ He gets a parakeet - Keaton - and an African gray parrot - Sunshine. ⦁ Every time someone new enters his house he holds out his arms and six birds land on them. ⦁ Sunshine lands on his head. ⦁ I feel like, after awhile he decides to get a more furry pet and settles on getting a pair of chinchillas. ⦁ They’re too cute for anyone to resist, so anyone who would avoid his place for fear of getting pooped on by the birds (Lance) bypasses the fear to see the precious balls of pure fluff. ⦁ He names them Pom and Poof. ⦁ He has perches everywhere in his house, it’s actually ridiculous. ⦁ Honestly, the definition of a pet parent. ⦁ He calls the birds and chinchillas his kids and refers to himself as their dad. ⦁ Did you know birds could be spoiled? ⦁ They can and Matt sets a standard for spoiling every animal. ⦁ Sunshine is a toublemaker and everyone knows it except Matt. ⦁ And, yes, Sunshine poops on Lance the first time he stays in the house for over ten minutes. ⦁ His fears were valid.

Request: Curtis request!!! Write about the Curtis Gang (or fam) and their sweet pet dog! It could be before or after the accident, up to you :)
@sixties-sodapop ! Hopefully it tags you this time. This prompt brought to you by the scene in The Outsiders movie where the family is visiting the country in Ponyboy’s dream, and they have a dog with them.
Masterlist: here
Warnings: I mean, it’s adorably cute, so if you have a problem with that, well, here’s your warning.
----
When Darrel Curtis Jr. woke up on Christmas morning, he looked out his bedroom window. The ground was dusted with white and the clouds above threatened to dump more snow on top of them.
Excitedly, he threw on some warm socks and quickly made his way to the front room. The snow reflecting in the morning light shone brightly, illuminating the entire room. Brightly wrapped presents sat under their decorated tree, the multicolored lights left on from the night before to help guide Santa to their house. 
The glass of milk sitting on the coffee table was drained, and nothing but a few crumbs sat on the plate that he and Soda had left their homemade cookies on. They didn’t have a fireplace, but his mom had assured them every year that Santa definitely would come in through the front door instead. To check, Darry walked around the small table and sure enough- wet footprints led from the front door to the table, and over to the tree. 
He almost squealed and took off running towards his parents’ room. 
He jumped onto their bed, trying to wake them up.
“Mommy! Daddy!” he screeched, bouncing up and down on the mattress. He heard Ponyboy roll over in his crib and start getting fussy. “It’s Christmas! Wake up!” His mother reached out to calm his movement.
“Okay, okay, honey,” she said, sleepily. “We’re up.”
His father sat up in bed and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. He blinked a few times, trying to clear his vision. He finally turned to his oldest son.
“Christmas you say, huh?”
“Well, yeah.”
“It can’t possibly be Christmas yet. I’m goin’ back to sleep.” When he dramatically made to lay back down, Darry tackled him. 
“No!” he whined. “It’s Christmas! There are tons of presents under the tree! And Santa’s footprints are by the front door!”
Darrel Curtis Sr. caught his son as he was jumped on and laughed.
“Oh, well, in that case, I guess you’re right.” His dad slid himself out of bed and threw his blanket over Darry’s head.
“Hey!” he cried, trying to find his way out of the bedspread. He felt hands grasp his sides, tickling him. He started giggling, but it soon turned into squealing and he thought he was going to pee his pants. “Daddy, s-s-s-stop!” 
Beside him, his mother chuckled. 
The tickling stopped and he threw the covers off. His middle brother, Sodapop, was now standing in the doorway, bleary eyed, wearing one of Darry’s old shirts. It swamped him. 
“What’s goin’ on?” he asked, trying to stifle a yawn.
“It’s Christmas, baby,” his mom answered as she was making her way over to Pony’s crib to pick him up. 
Instantly, Soda was awake, his eyes wide.
“It’s Christmas?” he yelled. “Why didn’t anyone wake me up?”
His dad came around and laid a hand on his shoulder. 
“We were gonna in a few minutes. Why don’t you any Darry go out to the tree and get everything ready while Mom changes Ponyboy?”
Instantly, Darry had his hand around his brother’s, forcefully pulling him to the front room. Not like he needed much encouragement. 
Soda gasped when he saw the amount of presents under the tree, his big, brown eyes roving over everything. Darry released his brother’s hand and went to take the plate and glass into the kitchen. 
By the time he’d returned, his father and mother were coming down the hallway. 
Half an hour later, the living room was an explosion of bright paper, bows, and ribbon. Darry sat at the coffee table with a dress-up cowboy hat on his head, forcing his new Matchbox cars to ram into each other, making crash noises with his mouth. Soda sat by the tree, his new View-Master glued to his face and he clicked the button, making surprised “whoas” as the pictures circled around. Their mother sat on the carpet with Ponyboy between her legs, playing with a set of plastic keys and some wooden blocks.
His father pulled on his shoes and coat. The sly nod he gave his mom didn’t escape Darry’s notice.
“Where ya goin’?” he asked as the older man made his way to the front door. 
“Oh, just a smoke. Be right back.”
The oldest Curtis brother shrugged it off until a few minutes later when his dad returned with one more large box, red and green decorations. Soda finally lowered his toy and looked up.
“Whoa, what is that?” he asked, his high-pitched voice loud and amazed.
His father set the box down on the floor in front of him and shrugged out of his coat. He laid it on the arm of the couch and knelt next to the box.
“Why don’t you and Darry come over and open it? It’s gonna take both of ya.”
The two brothers looked at each other and hopped up. They each took a side of the box. 
“Okay, ready?”
They nodded, eagerly.
“Okay, liiiiift,” his father dramatized, and they both pulled up. The oldest brother took the lid when it was off and toss it away from them. 
Inside laid a little beagle puppy. It yawned, letting out a tiny little whine. 
Darry could not believe his eyes. He and Soda had been begging their parents for months for a pet and he didn’t think they’d even budged on their stance. 
“A dog!” his younger brother screamed and started jumping up and down, holding on to the top edges of the box. 
Darry reached into and picked the puppy up, gently hugging him to his chest. His face turned hot and his eyes welled with tears. He sniffled.
“Was this a good Christmas, baby?” his mother asked, coming up behind him and taking a knee. She put a hand on his shoulder. He nodded, vigorously.
“T-thank you,” he said, his voice cracking. “He’s perfect.”
“Oh, honey,” she said and wrapped him in a loose embrace so they couldn’t crush the dog. “I’m so glad you’re happy.” He let out a half sob-half laugh and buried his face in her shoulder. 
“What are ya gonna name him?” his father asked, moving the box closer to the tree. Darry pulled away from his mom and lifted the beagle so he could clearly see it’s face.
“I think John’s a good name,” he stated.
“John?”
“Yeah, ya know.” He tipped his cowboy hat. “After John Wayne.”
His dad smiled from ear to ear. 
“I think that’s a great name.”
