can I request Norton, Luca, Edgar, and Naib (if it's too much you can deduct anyone just not Norton pls :,) with an s/o who kind of hides her emotions with a joking mask and bottles up her emotions? Like say she fails a calibration when coding with them and she mentally scolds herself then just laughs it off as if shes not degrading herself mentally. So like one day in a match when y/n gets downed and it's her last chair, she just sorta let's her frustration out (i mean like kicking, punching, and pulling Antonio's hair.. #saveantonio2022) while she sobbing her eyes out. Like homegirl doesnt even realize that she broke free from the balloon kind of sobbing her eyes out 😭

sorry if this is too specific or doesnt make sense :( english isnt my first language so I heavily apologize

ଘ♡﹒ॱ˖ ﹆i am so sorry but I couldn’t make naib cause it was too much for me I’m sorry again , I am happy that someone requested for Edgar since no one writes for him atm.

ଘ♡﹒ॱ˖ ﹆ But please take a note everyone: I need to know if the characters are separated or not, and I need to know if it’s an one shot or scenarios . Please keep that in mind because if this happens again , I have to ignore the request. But if you saw your mistake you can ask again but this time of the characters are together or separated, oneshot or scenarios. Thank you for your attention!!

Tw for the Edgar part: reader having a breakdown Oh and also! I made 3 different y/n if that’s okay! AND! I wanted to draw you guys something too becuase i havent posted a fic in months plus i passed my exam!! (shoutout to the person in my inbox that said gl in school , ily and tysm)

Norton, Luca and Edgar with a FEM!! s/o that bottles up her emotions

Norton

You are decoding in arms factory. It isn’t that cold nor that hot outside. But it’s always foggy. You didn’t really liked it because there was a lot of dust and you sneeze sometimes out of the blue.

As you are trying to focus on the 3rd cipher, one popped meaning that there are 2 ciphers remaining. You were looking from time to time around you if the hunter is coming but no sign. You sighed nervously but as you got distracted you missed a calibration. When survivors miss a calibrations the machine shocks you , which you hiss in pain. It hurts your hands for 10 seconds but the pain doesn’t last forever. You got frustrated from the pain in your hands , holding them shaking.

,,I HATE YOU I HATE YOU STUPID MACHINE’’ you kicked the machine hard enough to send another shock to your leg. You fell backwards and started tearing up. ,,WHY MEE!!’’ You screamed.

Your heartbeat started to raise, meaning that the hunter is near.

You stopped moving as you realised what did you do. It was like the colour of your skin colour fell (like in the cartoons, by the way I don’t want to sound racist, please type down in the chat if it made you guys uncomfortable, I will immediately delete it). If you didn’t make a circus it wouldn’t have happened.

,,I am such a fool, I am such a fool…’’ you were muttering under your breath as you got up.

,,The hunter is near me!’’ You screamed while trying to kite The Violinist.

It’s been a minute since you kited Antonio. But you got hit when you dropped a pallet. One more hit an you’re down.

After 10 seconds you got downed again,

Cipher Machine Progress: 67% 1 cipher(s) left.

The cipher has reached the half of the decoding which is good.

Still trying to heal on the floor ,Antonio tied you in balloons. You started struggling aggressively, screaming, crying , trying to hit Antonio. You pulled his hair which he groaned in pain and dropped you on the floor.

A magnet was thrown in front of Antonio.

‘Oh for-’ Antonio said to himself before getting stunned at a object.

He got stunned for 3-4 seconds until started chasing you again, you were sobbing .

,,Cipher machine primed!!!’’

,,Holy moly Y/N are you okay. What was that from you..?? You aren’t like that!!’’ Norton asked body blocking you, then threw a magnet again at the hunter to keep some distance. He accidentally used the magnet that attaches you and he got hit.

He groaned in pain.

,,I’m sorry’’

You were with watery eyes , and embarrassed.

You started to hiccup while running.

You tripped and fell on your face.

,,Focus in decoding!!!’’ Screamed Norton on top of his lungs.

The alarm went on signalling that the gates can be opened. The sound of the alarms startled you, you quickly got up furiously and started running. Norton stopped bodyblocking you and went to the opposite way where the other gate was, muttering guilty ‘sorry..’ . He couldn’t help you because he was out of magnets.

Still running for your life you couldn’t even tell your teammates that Antonio had detention.

He hit you really hard on the head.

,,Owwww’’ you cried in pain.

Antonio tied you , and placed you on a rocket chair aggressively. You could’ve tell that he was really mad at you,

He used teleport and hit Norton right away, leaving Martha to run away.

She ran to the other side of the map and rescued you.

She grabbed your shaky hand and went to the gate.

,,Jesus Y/N what were those screams.’’

She asked.

Your cheeks went red from embarrassment.

,,I uhm.. I don’t know…’’ you couldn’t really speak, because of those screams you let out.

,,Uh huh.. whatever let’s get out of here , he’s coming’’

You both got out leaving you with a tie.

Antonio walked out silent. Oh he was mad.

Suddenly big and strong hands wrapped around you.

,,Y/N!! What happened love? You didn’t answer while I was body blocking you!’’

It was Norton.

You blushed.

,,I .. uhh. I can’t talk right now.. I feel like I have no voice..’’

You tried to talk but you whispered, soon you relaxed in his arms.

He stared you while he was hugging you and chuckled.

,,Okay you will explain to me later, alright?’’ You nodded.

He chuckled again and kissed you on the forehead.

Luca

Luca was humming while working on his new invention. He was focused , until the machine exploded in his face , leaving black dust on his face.. O shit the wall.. There was dust everywhere. Luca started coughing , got up quickly from his seat and opened the windows still coughing. From the manor you could see a black dust getting out of Lucas window. Naib went inside the room without knocking.

,,What happened???????’’ He shouted.

,,Calm down Naib, my machine exploded.’’

Naib sighed annoyed.

,,If it exploded, your face could’ve burned by now.’’

Luca shrugged.

,,I dunno , guess I am lucky this time’’

Naib glared at him.

,,Next time be careful’’ Then he slammed the door shut. One of the vases Luca had on the counter slipped from Naib closing the door aggressively and broke into pieces.

,,Oh come on…’’ Luca groaned in annoyance. He got up and started picking the pieces carefully. But he remembered that he was with gloves so he gathered them into a handful and threw them into the bin in the corner of his room. He then remembered about his little machine and took a look of it.

It was completely shattered and dusty.

He groaned. This was the 2nd time now happening.

As he got up again from his seat ,he felt his body weak . Everything went black for a few seconds until everything was back to normal. He felt his head in pain too.

Low iron.

,,Uhhh….’’ He groaned.

He got out of his room and headed downstairs.

,,I’m sorry..’’

Luca stopped walking and peeked to see what was happening.

,,I DONT CARE IF YOURE HURT, I AM SICK YOU DOING THIS OVER AND OVER WOODS , LEAVE ME ALONE.’’

,,Please Y/N calm down! I don’t want the whole manor to hear you yelling…’’

,,OH YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN?? YOU WONT STOP BLABBING THE SAME THING SINCE I GOT HERE’’

,,What is going on??’’ Ada came to break the drama.

,,None of your business Mesmer.’’ Then Y/N walked away sobbing.

,,Wow.’’ Luca muttered under his breath.

,,Oh you’re here to hear what’s going on too?’’ Mike appeared behind him, startling him.

,,Oh jeez Michael you scared me..’’ Luca called his name mockingly.

Mike rolled his eyes in annoyance.

,,Whatever.’’ He was about to leave until Luca asked him.

,,Uh Mike question. Why was Y/N so mad?’’

He blinked a few times processing the question in his head.

,,….Oh that uhh.. Honestly I don’t know, but I have heard rumours from Emily that Emma acts a bit uhm.. How do I say this… weird..?..’’

,,Huh but isn’t Emma one of the happiest and cheerful here?’’

,,Yeah yeah but , as much as I heard about her. She’s just a weird fella you know?’’

Luca stayed silent.

,,She kind of … has an obsession.’’

,,Oh’’ Luca muttered.

,,Yeah…. Well uhh see you around.’’

Then Mike left.

,,Obsession..?’’

Luca walked upstairs and went to his room.

,,If it’s really an obsession then I really feel bad for Y/N..’’ he looked around his room sadly , talking to himself.

Hours have passed and Luca got out of his room again with a tired gaze.

,,Wait why am I out..??…… Oh yeah!’’

He walked downstairs and went to the kitchen to grab some food. As he did that he went to the table and sat with the others to eat.

As he was eating he saw Y/N , looking at her plate blankly. She had bags under her eyes.

Luca felt guilty.

He ate quickly his meal , got up from his seat and went to the little kitchen the manor shared , to wash his plate.

After that he went to Y/N seat.

,,Meet me outside when you’re finished eating’’ Luca said grinning.

You gave him a confused look still trying to process what he said.

You ate one more bite quickly and went to the kitchen to wash your plate.

You got out to the manors yard. It was a little cold but it was still nice. There were few people outside which you didn’t mind.

From afar you could see Luca, and Emma…

Your eyes widened when you saw her and hid behind the grave keeper quickly. He flinched and looked back at you confused and nervous as always.

,,Erm miss Y/N..? What are you doing.?

,,Andrew please do me a favour. Can I stay behind you please?’’ She said nervously.

He looked at you confused but nodded and got back to digging some eaten flowers by bugs.

Luca saw you hiding behind Andrew , him giving him a weird look.

Luca got the message quickly when he saw Emma waiting.

He approached her.

,,Hello Emma, waiting for someone?’’

She looked at him and smiled nervously.

,,Yeah uhm.. I am waiting for someone..’’

,,Who?’’

,,…. Y/N…’’

‘Aha’

,,I think that she went up to her room , why are you waiting for her to appear?’’

,,I have to tell her something..’’ she was playing with her gloves.

,,Huh but I think that Emily wants to tell you something, she told me to meet her after dinner, why won’t you check on her?’’ Luca said smiling.

,,Emily?! My angel! Thank you Luca!’’ She ran off.

Luca sighed and looked at Andrew nodding his head to tell him that everything is okay.

Andrew looked back at you.

You were shaking.

,,Um…. Y/N..? I-I think that nothing bad is going to happen..’’

You were looking around the garden and sighed in relief that Woods wasn’t here.

Then you looked at Luca waiting for you.

,,Thank you Andrew so much, and I am sorry for the discomfort I caused you.’’

You spoke embarrassed.

Andrew muttered a ‘no problem’ and got back to work.

You walked when Luca was and greeted him.

,,Hey Luca , you wanted to meet here , correct?’’

He nodded shyly.

,,Yeah..’’

,,Is there something we need to talk..?’’ You asked him tiredly.

,,I umm,. Uh… Please don’t get mad at me I heard you arguing with Emma and-‘’

,,You did????’’ Your eyes widened and your cheeks started to heat up from embarrassment.

,,Yeah but don’t worry about that.. I umm.. I know that this sounds stupid but I felt bad for you and I wanted the two of us to talk what’s bothering you.. Do you bottle up your emotions? Cause I see you mostly calm and today I was shocked’’ He chuckled awkwardly

,,…. I.. don’t really know..’’ you said quietly.

‘I messed that up didn’t i.’ He thought.

,,It’s just that Emma makes me uncomfortable.. She says weird stuff , like how we will be together forever , that she won’t leave my sight.. i thought it was normal and supportive, but this continued for 2 years and I am sick of her saying the same things over and over again.. it’s … weird. You just have to do something about it.. you can’t just keep your mouth shut..’’

Luca nodded , listening to you very carefully.

,,I am so sorry for today..’’ you chuckled tiredly.

Luca hugged you.

You flinched at his touch but relaxed, it was like you were protected.. You felt.. safe..

,,Don’t worry, from now on i will make sure Emma isn’t bothering you, alright?’’ He said softly, and smiled.

You nodded and smiled back.

Your body relaxed in his arms.

,,Thank you Luca’’ you blushed.

Edgar

You were walking fast to your room , but accidentally bumped into someone.

,,I am so sorry!!.. Oh Edgar my apologies!’’ You said nervously.

He scoffed at you.

,,Watch where are you going.’’

Then he left, walking downstairs.

He didn’t even offer you a hand? How rude of him! You got up quickly, and dust yourself off , heading to your room. It was next to ‘The Coordinator’ and ‘The Postman’. You searched for your key in your pockets and found it. You unlocked your door and went inside, then closed the door and locked it.

Y/N laid on her bed tiredly from all those matches , and from all the people she had to listen to, observing , saying bad stuff, but you have to say things back, right? You can’t really. They just tell you bad things in front of you , they don’t even care what are they saying! You can’t fight back. But you have to. It sounds easy, but you just freeze and let the words hit you like a train (LMAO WHAT😭). It’s tiring.

,,Let’s just sleep for now, I will see what’s gonna happen next..’’ you said to yourself tiredly. Then your eyes closed, the warm and not so soft bed relaxing your body.

zzz..

zzzz..

Suddenly a soft knock was heard from outside her door.

,,Umm Y/N..?’’ Whose voice was that?

You opened your eyes slightly and groaned.

The person outside heard her groan and started speaking nervously.

,,I umm.. Im sorry for disturbing you Y/N… But uhh.. It’s your turn to wash the dining’s tablecloth.. It sounds silly but today is Sunday remember..?’’

Oh yeah Sunday… The day where everyone has to keep the manor clean - washing , sweeping the leaves in the garden’s floor, washing the dishes.. It’s annoying.

Y/N recognised that voice.

She got up from her bed quickly and unlocked the door revealing Annie with a nervous smile on her face. She knew it was annoying.

,,Thank you Annie.’’ You said.

,,Hey, since I have already washed the carpet in the kitchen and it’s drying outside , can I help you with washing the tablecloth?’’ She offered kindly. She was such a sweet person.

,,Why not.’’ You answered and smiled.

Her nervous smile turned to a happy and calm one. She grabbed your hand , which you flinched from her sudden touch.

,,Come on! Let’s go!’’ She said happily and started to walk fast with you like a 7 year old who just saw an ice cream truck.

You giggled and followed her from behind.

————————————

Annie sighed tiredly.

,,Who! I feel tired..’’ she said with a grin.

You chuckled. ,,Of course you feel tired silly, you washed the kitchen’s carpet which is really big and now the tablecloth.’’ You smiled and she giggled.

,,Well let’s put the tablecloth outside! You hold the other side and I will hold this side.. but we need one more person..’’

Edgar appeared from one of the rooms. ,,Need help?’’

,,Oh Edgar! It’s nice seeing you! And yes, please. Me and Y/N were just talking how we needed a third person!’’ She giggled.

Edgar turned his head towards you, with a blank face which you blushed a little and avoided eye contact.

He smiled a little and turned back to Annie.

,,Of course, what am I supposed to do?’’ He asked.

,,Just hold this side and me and Y/N will hold the other two.’’

,,Alright’’ the three of you were going outside with the big tablecloth - Edgar holds the middle part of the table cloth , and you and Annie the other two.

The three of you place it outside to dry with the other.

You feel tired again.

,,Thanks Annie and Edgar.. I will go now..’’ you yawned and waved at them. You didn’t look back because you were tired. AGAIN. Seriously?

You laid again on your bed tiredly and closed your eyes.

It was like your bed was the only comfort place where you can escape the problems.

Safe place..

You cant sleep.. its hard but you just close your eyes..

MAP: Arms Factory

4 Cipher(s) left

,,My head hurts..’’ you said to yourself while decoding.

You aren’t paying attention to perfumer being chaired near you.

You didn’t know.

You were done with the cipher and she flew back to the manor.

,,Huh? Why no one rescued her..?’’

You were too tired to think.

2 Cipher(s) left

,,Y/N you idiot!’’ Suddenly you heard Edgar from behind you. He was mad.

,,Why didn’t you rescue Perfumer?? She was near you wasn’t she!!’’ He was talking too loud..

,,Shut up please..’’

,,Oh you want me to shut up?? This isn’t a kids game Y/N , we have to have each others back. And what were you doing? I bet you didn’t do ANYTHIIING!!!’’

,,JUST SHUT UP VALDEN’’

His eyes widened and furrowed his brows.

,,How dare you speak to me like that???!’’

,,SHUT UP HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THIS EDGAR, HOW MANY??? I AM SICK OF EVERYONE HERE , I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I WISHED I DIDNT HAVE FATIGUE SYNDROME!! ITS ALWAYS ME RIGHT?? IF I DIDNT HAVE IT MAYBE YOU GUYS WOULD BE PROUD OF ME, BUT NOO!! I AM TIRED EDGAR YOURE LIKE THE OTHERS’’ You were breaking down.

He stared at you shocked and speechless.

,,Leave me alone..’’ you sobbed.

Wasn’t he supposed to not care?

Deep inside him felt guilt.

,,I… Didn’t know you had fatigue syndrome.. I’m sorry’’ he sat in front of you and gave you a tight hug.

,,You are tired. I am so sorry.’’ He muttered.

,,I’m sorry…’’ he said again.

You couldn’t say anything. It was too much. Everything was too much.

You cried in his arms.

,,You can rest.. I am here.’’ He said softly.

,,The match?-‘’

,,I said rest.’’ He scooped you closer protectively.

for those of you who dont know what fatigue syndrome is , its when a person has difficulty thinking, problems sleeping, sore throat, headaches, feeling dizzy, or severe tiredness.

Please keep that in mind i am not mocking it in my fic.

Thank you for requesting and reading! See you in the next fic.

6 : a song that makes you want to dance

if i ever choreograph something i think it'd have to be to stromae's "ave cesaria" or a perfume genius song like "otherside" <3 a more casual 'get up and dance' song is probably "michuul" by duckwrth or "photo id" by remi wolf (or journey's "open arms" bc my mom and i have choreo we do when ever it comes on)

"ichidaiji" by polkadot stingray! or basically any twice song (like "like ooh-ahh" or "tt" or "likey" or "alcohol-free" or "the feels" etc etc <3 love them)

"smooth" by santana feat. rob thomas <3 or of course "quiereme" by johnny sky, i can't think of a single time i've skipped that song? or "heyday" by stray kids or "我愛你" by cody・lee(李)

13 : one of your favorite 80’s songs

journey's "ask the lonely" is near the top of my on repeat atm so i have to include her, i LOVE journey especially "wheel in the sky" (which apparently came out in 1978 but i know it from a 1988 album and she's my fav so she's staying) <3 also "rock the casbah" by the clash and whitney houston's "i wanna dance with somebody (who loves me)" and "el muchacho de los ojos tristes" by jeanette or kate bush's anything <3 (obligatory "running up that hill (a deal with god)" link <3 also "wuthering heights" came out in 1977 but i'm linking it anyway)

"wonderfully bizarre" by bendigo fletcher hands down (or "para siempre" by vicente fernández or "the book of love" by the magnetic fields <3 i haven't been to a wedding in over a decade idk what kind of music they play <3)

edit : okay sorry to add Another song but i'm on a journey kick recently and when i wrote this i'd forgotten about The Wedding Song Ever, "when you love a woman" like just imagine slow dancing to this. insanity. okay that's it <3

15 : a song that is a cover by another artist

nina simone's "my baby just cares for me" forever and ever and ever

17 : a song that you would sing a duet with on karaoke

Caught Red & Blue Handed

Summary: Peter comes home late past curfew and tries to sneak in, only it doesn’t go as he hoped.

Whumptober Day 2: Cornered & Confrontation

@whumptober @whumptober-archive

Rating: G

Word Count: 1,261

Genre: whump, hurt/comfort, fluff

Link to read on AO3

“Peter, you’re thirty-eight minutes past curfew.” Karen reminds him.

“I know, Karen. Thanks for reminding me again." Peter says with no real heat behind it as he shoots another web off to the closest building.

Tonight’s patrol had gotten a tiny bit out of hand. He started around eight tonight and it had gone very smoothly, helping an older lady across the street, stopping a few purse snatchers here and there, and even helping a little girl get her pet lizard down from a tree. How it got up there, he has no clue. Everything has been going so great tonight… up until the Tracksuit Mafia decided to start wreaking havoc—and that havoc, being robbing a block of expensive stores on 5th avenue.

Peter felt a bit out of his element here in Manhattan since he’s so used to patrolling in Queens. But since May and Happy got married, they all moved to Happy’s apartment in uptown Manhattan, overlooking the massive skyscrapers. And it’s very nice… too nice in fact. Peter misses Queens and the people there, but he still tries to make it back every chance he can get to patrol and continue keeping the streets as safe as he can. It’s just been hard lately with the Tracksuits ramping up their robberies. He’s really going to have to look into those guys.

Tonight, they decided to rob a bunch of luxury stores and a few ATM machines and started robbing another store until Peter got there. It took quite a while to take them all out and they got quite a few good hits in themselves, but Peter managed to take each and every one of them down, webbing them up outside on the street light poles before the police showed up. The whole thing took around half an hour alone, resulting in him being way past his curfew.

“Forty minutes, Peter.” Karen tells him.

Peter lets out a sigh as he twists in the air, rounding the corner of a building onto another street, firing off another web. “I know, Karen.”

He’s so screwed if May or Happy are up.

Hopefully they’re not and they went to bed.

With his luck, probably not.

Peter swings from the web and launches himself in the air, free-falling for a few quick seconds before firing off another web.

“Forty one minutes.”

“Karen, you don’t have to keep telling me.”

“I’m sorry, Peter.”

Peter lets out a sigh as he fires off another web. “It’s okay. How about you tell me the quickest way to get home?”

“Certainly,” Karen says in an upbeat tone as a map pops up in the bottom left corner of his HUD in his left mask lens. “The quickest way home is fifteen minutes. Take the next left.”

“Thanks, Karen!” Peter says as he takes a sharp left up the next street, hoping to get home sooner than fifteen minutes.

…

When Peter finally makes it home, he silently lands on the glass window of his bedroom and goes to lift it, only for it to stay firmly in place.

Crap. I forgot to unlock it before I left. Peter thinks to himself, closing his eyes.

The only other way in he can think of is sneaking in through the patio slider door, which is a little risky. But it’s worth a shot.

Peter starts crawling across the windows, being sure to avoid crawling anywhere near May and Happy’s room, until he makes it to the patio.

“Karen, can you deactivate the security alarm until I’m in?” Peter whispers, peering down to the patio, finding the apartment to be completely dark.

“Certainly. Just a second…” She says, silent for a few moments. “You’re all set. The alarm will turn back on in forty seconds.”

“More than enough time to sneak in.” Peter says as he flips down and lands silently in a crouch, before standing up.

He cautiously walks over to the slider door and pulls, relieved to find it unlocked as he hoped it would be. Peter pulls it open just enough before he slips inside and silently closes it behind him. He stands there for a few seconds, listening for any movement in the apartment but it’s thankfully silent, save for Happy’s snoring coming from down the hallway.

Peter lets out a soft, relieved breath as he starts to walk across the space, passing by the living room on his way towards the hallway leading to his room and to his bed.

He’s so exhausted he could just fall asleep standing up, especially after the fight with the Tracksuits.

A sharp clicking sound comes from behind him as the room is engulfed in a golden, bright light room a lamp.

Peter jumps and spins around, only to find May sitting in the loveseat by the window. She’s wearing her pajamas and bathrobe, her brows pulled together in a displeasing frown.

Oh shit.

“Spider-Man,” She greets. “You’re coming in a bit late, don’t you think?”

Peter pulls his mask off. “I know I-it’s way past curfew but there were these guys-“

May shakes her head with a sigh. “Peter. I know you’re busy and you have responsibilities as Spider-Man but you have a responsibility to come home at a reasonable hour. You know my rules. You come home by eleven-thirty and if you’re going to be late you call me. You failed to do both of those things tonight.”

Peter’s shoulders drop. “I know,” he says. “I just.. I forgot. I’m sorry. I’m sorry I kept you up waiting for me.”

May sits there and looks at him before she sighs again, this time softer as she stands up and makes her way over to him. “It’s alright. I know how busy you are out there.” She says as she pulls him into a warm hug.

Peter closes his eyes as he wraps his arms around her, breathing in her lavender perfume. The scent is so familiar and calming, it makes him want to wrap himself up in a blanket and fall asleep.

“I’m sorry I kept you up.” Peter repeats, his words muffled.

“It’s alright.”

A few long seconds pass by before May gives him one final squeeze before pulling back. She squints behind her glasses as she brings a hand up to his forehead, gently brushing her thumb against a particularly sore spot where a bruise must be forming where one of the Tracksuits managed to much him.

“Want some ice for that?” She offers.

Peter shakes his head with a small smile. “No thanks, I think I’m going to just head to bed.”

“Okay. Well you have a goodnight sleep, honey.” She says with a soft smile, hugging him again. “We’re going to have another talk about you breaking curfew in the morning, young man.” She says as she pulls away without any heat behind her words.

Peter sighs, nodding his head. “Okay.”

May kisses the side of his face. “Goodnight, love you.”

“Love you too.” Peter says with a soft smile as he heads towards his room, hearing May turn the lamp off in the living room behind him.

When Peter closes his bedroom door behind himself, he breathes out a sigh as he hits the spider emblem on his chest, feeling his suit loosen around himself, drooping off his shoulders. He pulls on a t-shirt and sweatpants before he gets into bed, letting out a relieved groan when he feels his tight and sore muscles loosen against the soft mattress.

He’s out like a light, not even a few minutes later.

ID theft, social media hacks

Dear Gentle Readers, Mutuals, Curious Kids, and Nosy Nellies,

Someone very near to me recently learned that their credit / debit cards had been hacked, accounts drained, and their personal data leaked to the Dark Web. They are having a difficult and laborious challenge in working with their bank to resolve matters. Out of an abundance of caution, might I respectfully suggest that you, and everyone that I know, take precautions - immediately? (1.) Change *all* your passwords periodically, at least every six months. It might be inconvenient to refer to written passcodes that you keep in hard copy somewhere. But the benefits may outweigh the inconvenience. (2.) Protect your “plastic”: Get RFID-blocking wallets and pocketbooks. (3) Do not let your debit card be taken out of your sight. Not ever. When paying by credit / debit cards at restaurants, pay at the counter. Do not rely on waitstaff walking cards to and from their payment counters. That is most often when unscrupulous waitstaff or criminally minded customers intercept and clone RFID chips data, steal your credit / debit card numbers, and drain accounts. (4.) Beware of credit-card skimmers, which can clone a card. The card skimmer allows the fraudster to capture and record all the data on a card. The

card skimmer is placed on any machine that accepts debit or credit cards, think ATM machines or POS machines. When an unsuspecting victim inserts their card in the skimmer the data on the card is captured. (5.) Depending on the sophistication of the card skimmer the fraudsters might also need to capture your PIN separately and would make use of a camera or a dude peeping over your shoulder to get it. (6.) When entering your PIN make sure to block it out so that no camera or peeping-tom catches a glimpse. (7.) Give the card slot and number pad a good wiggle to check for looseness. If loose it may have been tampered with, do not insert your card in there. (8.) If your card is swallowed contact the bank immediately, if possible right there whilst you’re in front of the machine that swallowed it. (9.) Consider altering your bank accounts and turn off automatic overdraft protection, i.e., when your checking account goes to zero that the bank does not automatically draw funds from your saving accounts. Better for you to be inconvenienced with occasional overdraft messages than for your accounts to be drained in one fell swoop. (10.) As much as I enjoy your social media postings, stop adding too much details, e.g., where you are eating lunch, which travel destination you are visiting today, or where you are precisely in the world tonight. The world does not need to know where you are right this second. If you post details about your exact location, thieves know where you have been, where you are going, and that you are away from home. All our home addresses are available from a basic search on the Internet. One does not need detailed computer training to find such data. (11.) Even if you have neighbors looking after your property daily, they cannot be at your house 24/7. And if they were to encounter a burglar or robber at your property, the neighbor might be at risk through the encounter. (12.) I am suggesting to my victimized loved ones that they notify everybody in their social media network. I fear that anyone who has their email address about this breach. Potentially, we all are at risk of having our own accounts compromised. (13.) All U.S. citizens are entitled to an annual, *free* credit report from the credit reporting agencies Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. And since only one report is allowed free each year, it may be prudent to request reports from a different agency every three months. That way, we can check our credit report for fraud periodically every year. (14.) As adorable and innocent as their prepubescent grandchildren are, it is possible a thief has stolen their identity and already created fraudulent accounts in their name. Child identity theft happens when someone takes a child’s sensitive personal information and uses it to get services or benefits, or to commit fraud. They might use your child’s Social Security number, name and address, or date of birth. More available on the ‘Net, using search terms child identity theft. Hoping this all helps. So sorry again to hear of this inconvenience! -- Sincerely yours, This Humble Blogger.

Alarms & video surveillance can also be added by Atm Service Provider, which may reduce the amount of insurance.

I’m digitizing the journal from my TRT hike. It’s clippy and cynical so feel free to ignore

Days 7-9

Day 7 Ward Creek to Tahoe City

It was a boring walk to Tahoe City. It’s funny that you can measure how close you are to town by how people start to act. In the wilderness everyone is friendly to cordial and exchange greetings while passing each other, but near town people look at you cockeyed when you say hi. I washed up in the Savemart bathroom, then bought a hiker’s feast to eat at Common’s Beach in the heart of the town. I felt like an idiot for basically taking a shower in the Savemart sink, because Common’s Beach has great bathrooms. I got to texting while shoving cheezits in my face, and heard from Andrew that the Star Trek con is basically sold out, so I cancelled my trip and will probably go see Brooke instead. Went to the thrift store to buy something to wear while doing laundry, but they only took cash. I went in search of an ATM, but wound up getting some pricey clothes at Any Mountain. I actually like the duds, but the price means that I can’t ditch them! I went to the laundromat, and was surprised that all the machines were card and app based, but not the detergent vending machine. Luckily the owner took pity on me and let me use her detergent. I scooted off to the library to charge my phone and wait for my 4pm hotel check in, and read a great graphic novel about the life of Lon Cheney. I decided to head to the gear store, and ran into the two friendly hikers from Desolation on the street! I bought a fresh pair of socks, fancy flip flops, but they didn’t have any walking sticks or single trekking poles. After a bit more shopping and an ice cream cone, I was finally able to check in and take a blessed shower.

I walked to the chaotic Safeway to resupply since it was closer than the Savemart. Had a beer and ate Cheezits in bed while watching TV. The beer took me by surprise, but after I sobered up a little I headed across the street and ordered some takeout from the Fat Cat cafe. Packed up for the morning. Watson lake is only 13 miles so I’ll let myself sleep til 8.

Day 8 Tahoe City to Watson Lake

Woke up at 5:30 despite myself. Took another shower then got out of Dodge. The trail wasn’t that bad, but my pack weighing 35 lbs again makes everything harder. Basically bike trails until Watson peak where there were some nice views of the lake. A snowmobile crashed into the lake this winter so there’s a small oil spill on the north side of the lake. I’m not drinking the lake water just in case it messes up my filter. I’m enjoying the bear boxes at the campground. It’s not too crowded despite its reputation as a party spot. We’ll see how rowdy the group by the water gets at night. Tomorrow’s hike might be crazy

Day 9 Watson Lake to Gray Lake

5:30, had great sleep. Just a bunch of easy to sing on bike track until Brockway summit. Pleasant enough. Water was cached at the parking lot, so that ruled. Lots of climbs, then finally views. Crazy trail above north shore in the Mt. Rose wilderness! Gray lake is surprisingly charming, and the spring water that feeds it is so cold it numbs your hands and gives you brain freeze if you chug it.

The Specialty of Finding Free Slot Machines Holding on to Pay Large Payouts

The most popular Crisscross Technique is the most broadly involved methodology that individuals utilize today looking for free slot machines. It is obscure why it became known as the Crisscross Strategy. Conceivable on the grounds that the player Zigs and Crosses to and fro through the gambling club searching for a club that somebody is simply halting there play after not winning any and assuming everything falls into place they have been losing on that equivalent machine for a few hours. One way or another, the Crisscross Technique has no logical proof to back up those cases.

As the Crisscross strategy goes, the player is searching for designs on the slots. Case in point, envision that bananas are a bonanza slot. The Crisscross technique player goes through the club searching for a slot with the right arrangement of bananas on the slot reels. In the event that three bananas are on the payline and a third banana is one line off the payline, this is an illustration of the Crisscross hypothesis. In principle the slot reels are preparing to arrange and you could before long hit a tremendous big stake.

In the present times be that as it may, slots currently use what is known as an irregular number generators or an (RNG). These irregular number generators are inner pc's which include the probabilities and afterward figure out what images to show for every one of the slot reels. Each time you put down your bet and pull the idea about a slot machine an irregular number generator decides the places of the slot machine's images on the reels.

This tells us that all twists on a slot machine is free and all alone of some other pulls from a slot machine. The irregular number generator (RNG) makes every single twist arbitrary. Presently you see that to that end that they call it irregular. Click here สูตรสล็อต AI ใช้ยังไง ใช้ได้จริงหรือไม่

There is a pretty commonly known hypothesis that the club staff place the "loosest" slot machines nearer to the entry and ways out of the gambling club. Slot machine card sharks going in the club see different speculators succeeding at these slots and conclude they need to play. With this hypothesis, slots players ought to continuously attempt the slots close to the entry entryways and leave entryways of the club, these might be the loosest slot machines on the club property.

One more rendition of this framework is that the club will place free slots in a high rush hour gridlock spot. A model would be, near the clerks, and the bathrooms and obviously close to the ATM machine, and near a gambling club gaming table. Perhaps in lieu of betting at the slots near the front entryway, you ought to play a machine where gambling club traffic is extremely weighty.

This hypothesis can have a defect, the hypothesis that I am discussing is the "hit recurrence". The hit proportion is the level of slot machine turns a slot machine pays off as opposed to taking your cash. This is how things have been, one slot machine could have a higher hit recurrence, yet another machine could have less hits (wins,payout), yet take care of more when these hits occur.

The club staff might put a slot with a high hit recurrence rate close to an entry or leave entryway or some other high traffic region, similar to the bar or the ATM machine. That doesn't mean the machine is taking care of more than machines in a portion of different region of the club. Actually, it very well may be the inverse. Club are not in business to simply offer free cash, they are continually thinking of better approaches to get these kind of results

Try not to constantly hope to see the free slots close to the front entryway of the club. Trust me when I say that the club staff members have a ton of experience with these stories. I would say, the gambling club puts the slot machines with the more modest recompense rates where slot players might be bound to secure down and play.

Why is AEPS Considered a UPI for Rural India?

Aadhaar Enabled Payment System (AEPS) is a payment service that lets a bank customer use Aadhaar as his or her identity to access his or her Aadhaar enabled bank account. The goal of the AEPS system is to give people more power, especially in rural areas, by giving everyone access for financial and banking services through Aadhaar.

AEPS infrastructure is a great move toward solving the basic banking problems caused by the lack of Digitalization in rural India by allowing basic banking transactions, increasing the use of digital financial services in rural India, and filling them into the formal financial system. As India is now a developing Nation and so a rural area should be, making the rural areas more digitalized, more cashless, and more educated about digitalization, AEPS has been a key role for rural people and thus it has been a modern UPI for the rural people of India.

How to use AEPS as UPI?

It’s easy to use AEPS; all you have to do is give the correct Aadhaar number, and the payment will be sent to the right merchant.

• Download the app on the Android or iOS platform

• Register for the service by giving details about your bank account.

• Set up a VPA and get an MPIN

Benefits of AEPS Payments

As part of “Paperless, Cashless, and Faceless” services across the country, especially in rural and remote areas, different ways to make digital payments are being offered. These include Banking Cards, Mobile Wallets, Internet Banking, Mobile Banking, Bank Pre-paid Cards, Micro ATMs, and Aadhaar Enabled Payment System (AEPS) Also, with the move to digital, banking services will be available to customers on a 24/7 basis and on all days of the year, including bank holidays.

• Cost-effective and less transaction fee: There are a lot of payment apps and mobile wallets that don’t charge any kind of service fee or processing fee for the service they provide. The UPI interface is one example of a service that the customer can use for free. Costs are going down because of the many digital ways to pay.

• Discounts and cashback: Customers who use digital payment apps and mobile wallets can get a lot of rewards and discounts. Many digital payment banks offer cash-back deals that are pretty good. This is great for customers and makes them more likely to stop using cash.

• One-stop solution for paying bills: Many digital wallets and payment apps can be used to pay bills all in one place. This makes it easy to pay for things like utilities. All of these utility bills, like cell phone bills, internet bills, and electricity bills, can be paid through a single app without any hassle.

Which are the best AEPS services provider in Rajasthan?

Paydeer Company is one of the best AEPS service provider companies in Rajasthan. You can start your own AEPS banking service with us as an admin and can offer cashless banking and financial services to your members.

Many fintech companies also support financial inclusion by setting up their own banking correspondent agent networks that offer AEPS services to their communities. These networks can also help people who don’t have bank accounts but have an Aadhar card join the formal financial system without having to go to a bank branch.

Conclusion

Since the cashless economy, the Indian government has been working on a number of projects to meet the financial needs of the last mile consumer. In a country like India, where digital literacy is still low, one important part of promoting digital payments among rural populations is how easy it is for them to use these methods in their daily lives.

Squid Game - Part 8

Natasha Romanoff x Reader

Summary: Squid Game AU. The reader joins a deadly game to save themselves from debt and reunites with an old flame…

Warnings: Graphic violence, blood, language, death. Spoilers for Squid Game.

Word count: 2764

Part 7

AN: Thanks to everyone who stuck with this story. Enjoy the final part.

Natasha wakes up half-naked on the sidewalk, her hands and feet tied behind her back. Her stomach hurts in the position she’s twisted in, and she sees the black line of stitches across her abdomen where you had stabbed her a week ago. She coughs, her whole body trembling in pain, and a gold debit card goes flying out of her mouth.

She eventually wriggles herself free of the ties, and a kind homeless man comes by and gives her one of his oversized, raggedy jackets to wear. She takes it gratefully, covering herself up, and stumbles over to the nearest ATM, shoving the card into the slot.

It asks for a four-digit PIN number.

Slowly, Natasha presses 0-1-9-0, her number in the competition. The machine accepts and she chooses to withdraw $10 dollars. The machine spits out the bill, and says she has $453,999,990 left in her account.

***********************************************************************

The first thing Natasha does with her newfound wealth, as disgusting as it is for her to use it, is hire a private investigator. Within a day, he locates your address, and she heads there immediately.

It’s in a terrible area of the city and the main doors don’t even have locks on them. There’s a large blue truck advertising junk removal outside the complex, and men carry furniture and other appliances from inside to dump in the back. Natasha walks in and sees a door open on the first floor, where the junk removal team are entering and exiting.

She prays it’s not your apartment, but she already knows better.

As she goes down the cramped hallway, one of the men bumps into her shoulder with the edge of his box. The contents spill to the floor and he cusses loudly. Natasha automatically bends over to help him and turns over a picture frame. The glass is cracked, but the intact picture makes her heart stop.

It’s you and her, back on the first date you ever went on together. Natasha’s face is frozen in laughter as you kiss her cheek shyly.

“Ahem.” The junk removal man holds out his hand. “I’ll take that.”

“No.” Natasha’s finger close tightly over the frame. “I’m keeping this.”

He narrows his eyes at her.

“Here.” She fishes in her pocket and pulls out the smallest dollar bill she’s carrying—a hundred—and gives it to him. His eyes widen as he accepts it.

“You want anything else?” He lowers the box so she can see what else is inside, but she shakes her head. Natasha tucks the frame under her arm and keeps moving.

“Just take it all, boys. I don’t want any memories of these tenants.” A tall, stooping man with a receding hairline and a thick Russian accent directs the junk removal team from the doorway.

“Um, excuse me?” Natasha approaches him with uncharacteristic hesitance. A strange, fishy smell lingers near the doorway of your apartment.

“I’m busy.” The man waves her away.

“Yeah, I can see that.” Natasha is still weak from the injuries she suffered during the final game and is in no mood to argue with him. “I’m looking for someone who lives here. Mrs…Y/L/N?”

“Why?” the man barks, crossing his arms. “Are you here to finally pay the rent? Because it’s too late for that.”

“How much?” Natasha asks, reaching in her jacket pocket, her fingers circling the wad of 100-dollar bills.

The man chuckles and shakes his head. “I said it’s too late,” he repeats.

“What do you mean? Did you already kick her out?” Natasha’s stomach twists uncomfortably at the thought of your mother being treated so terribly.

“I was on my way to do that yesterday actually, and when I finally knocked the door down, I found her dead on the floor,” the man says.

“…Dead?” Bile rises in the back of Natasha’s throat.

“Yep. And the other tenant—her kid or whatever—never picked up the phone.” Natasha chokes up when she’s reminded of the reason why you wouldn’t answer. “Anyway, I’m done with this damn family. I’m the one who had to call to get the old lady carted off to the morgue, and now I have to pay for junk removal and cleaning services.”

But Natasha’s not listening to him anymore as she backs away with tears in her eyes. Your mother was dead, her last connection to you. Not only that, but the whole reason you had played those games and unspeakable things was for her.

All that for nothing.

Natasha bolts from the apartment complex with the picture frame and doesn’t look back.

***********************************************************************

The next heartbreak comes with Clint’s son, Cooper. Natasha’s private investigator locates the hospital he’s staying in, and Natasha anonymously pays for every surgery and treatment available, but no amount of money can save him from cancer.

He dies one month later.

Natasha hovers in the background at his funeral. She watches Clint’s wife and daughter cry into each other’s arms and shares their pain from afar. She wants to tell them the truth of what happened to Clint, but knows she can’t bring attention to herself like that.

She just wants to move on.

After paying out Bucky’s crew and attempting to right any other wrong she had caused, Natasha locks her account and doesn’t touch another dime she won from the games.

***********************************************************************

One year later…

Natasha sits on a bench in an empty park. It’s almost midnight and she’s freezing, but the cold numbs the pain in her soul. She’s wrapped in layers of old clothing, refusing to spend money on new ones. She had found a part-time job at a diner, which was barely enough to pay the bills. She didn’t indulge in luxuries, even with almost half a billion dollars sitting in a separate account.

There was nothing she wanted that could be bought.

“Hi, there, Miss.” An older man shuffles up to her. “For you. Merry Christmas.” He offers her a single rose.

Natasha nods and takes the flower. She notices a card tied around the stem. There’s a stamp of a circle, triangle, and square on one side of the card. The other side reads:

Stark Tower Top floor December 24, 11:30 P.M.

From, 001

Her blood runs cold when she sees the signing on the card.

***********************************************************************

Natasha’s surprised that Stark Tower is even open on the holiday, but there’s no one in the lobby to greet her. With some difficulty, she locates the elevator and presses the button for the top floor, floor 7. Her stomach starts hurting again, but this time she knows it’s from the sheer anxiety.

The seventh floor is just one giant room, the wall-to-wall windows offering a spectacular view of the city. Especially for this time of year, nearby businesses went through the extra effort of decorating their buildings with festive lights, inflatable snowmen, and Santa Claus statues.

In the farthest corner of the room, a tiny light glows over a hospital bed. Natasha approaches it with some hesitance. When she sees a person lying in the bed, her heart beats faster.

It’s Tony, Player 001, alive in the flesh.

He’s even thinner and paler than when he had been during the games. But as far as she can see, there is no gunshot wound to show that he had even been shot during the marble game.

“Hello, Natasha,” Tony whispers, reaching out to her with a trembling hand.

“Who the hell are you?” Natasha whispers, unable to believe what she’s seeing. How did he survive? Why did he wait almost a year to make his presence known? Why had he called her here?

“My name is Anthony Stark.”

Natasha realizes immediately why he had seemed so familiar from their first encounter. The Starks were self-made billionaires, and Anthony/Tony had made a name for himself within the family as an infamous playboy. Now that she thought about it, she even remembered hearing about the factory accident that sent shrapnel through his chest, almost destroying his heart and removing him from the work field.

If he came from one of the wealthiest families in America, why had he chosen to play the games? He had money. He had everything that most people could only dream of.

Then it hits Natasha, especially with the things he revealed to her over the course of the games.

“You…You were…” she chokes on her words. “You were the one behind the games this entire time.”

Tony doesn’t answer, staring at the ceiling with dull eyes.

“Why?” she says, barely able to contain her anger. She grabs his collar and chokes him. “Why?” she repeats, shaking him roughly.

“If you kill me,” Tony grunts weakly, “You’ll never get your answer.”

She backs off.

“How come you stopped spending your money?” he asks.

“I can do whatever I want with it,” Natasha responds. “And if that means not spending it, then that’s my choice.”

Tony adjusts his head on a pillow. “But the things you did to earn it—”

“I didn’t do anything!” she protests. “Y/N…Y/N’s the one…” She bows her head, unable to finish her sentence. You were the one who had made the ultimate sacrifice in the end. She was just the unlucky one forced to live with the memory of it all.

“Y/N wasn’t the one who walked away with the money. You were,” Tony points out. “You earned it fair and square, Natasha.”

“But I have no use for it,” she argues, looking out the window.

“That’s not what you thought going into the game.” Tony sighs. “You asked me why I created the games. People are so obsessed with money, but once they get more than they know what to do with, they realize that’s not what they really wanted in the end. They want friends, they want a family, they want love, they want meaning.

“Take me for example. I grew up with everything I could have ever wanted. Everything was given to me on a silver platter. I worked for my dad’s company all my life—in a job I never had to interview for—but no amount of money made me feel the way that belonging on a team, being relied on by others, did,” Tony explains. “But after the factory accident, the company cut me loose, and I didn’t know what to do with myself. I had all the money I could ever spend, but I didn’t have a purpose.”

Natasha can hardly wrap her head around his reasoning.

“The winners of my games fought and killed for money that most of them would later never even spend. They’re no different than you,” Tony says. “You had nothing before you entered the game, Natasha. And you emerged a multi-millionaire. So, tell me why you’re still unhappy,” Tony says.

Natasha feels sick to her stomach. “Because I lost things money could never replace.”

“Like what?” Tony turns his head to stare at her tauntingly.

She narrows her eyes and presses her mouth into a hard line. “You know what.”

“You were the one who cheated on Y/N, right? You probably thought you would never even see each other again. My game brought you back together. How are you not grateful for that in the very least?”

Because the games turned you into a completely different person than who she fell in love with, Natasha thinks.

“My game makes people realize what’s truly important to them and who they really are,” Tony says. “Were you not happy with how Y/N turned out?”

Natasha suddenly remembers your last living moments. “Y/N forgave me,” she says, almost to herself.

“What?” Tony asks.

Natasha repeats herself louder.

“Is that so?” He smirks. “Did that give you peace of mind?”

“A little,” she admits. Natasha wants to focus on the good, not the bad, as difficult as it is.

“Do you know why I called you here?” Tony asks.

She shrugs. “To prove to me that you’re not really dead and that you’re a sick motherfucker who’s responsible for the deaths of thousands?”

Tony ignores her last comment. “I have something for you, Natasha.” He coughs, and it’s a raspy, painful noise that even makes her wince.

“What? More money?” Natasha dismisses. “Because if it is, you can shove it up your—”

“No, it’s…” Tony continues coughing, bringing his fist up to his mouth. He spits blood on his knuckles and his whole body convulses with each of his coughs. Natasha looks around the room for a phone or a button to call for help. But there’s nothing. So instead, she watches him die, utterly numb to the loss of life.

Tony flops onto his pillows, clutching his throat. The heart monitor screams in panic. He lets out a final cough and slumps back, his body going still. Natasha steps up to his side, pressing her fingers to his neck. She feels no pulse.

***********************************************************************

It feels strange to leave Tony like that, but Natasha can’t risk being caught. She walks down the street to the train station, hoping to catch the last one. As she’s waiting on the platform, poorly bundled up against the cold, she looks across the platform and sees one person standing on the other side.

She rubs her eyes, unable to process what she’s seeing.

It’s you.

You’re wearing an eyepatch over your right eye and Natasha can see the scar trailing over your eyebrow where she slashed you with the knife. There is also a gruesome scar on your neck from where you had stabbed yourself so she could win. But despite the sacrifice, you were still alive.

Were you Tony’s present to her? Had he actually saved you after she thought you had killed yourself?

***********************************************************************

One year earlier

You were certain you would die in Natasha’s arms. Blood leaks from your throat, trickling down your chest. You want to tell her to take care of your mother, but nothing but blood bubbles out of your mouth. You try reaching up to touch Natasha’s face, but you’re too weak and your arm falls back to the ground.

You feel yourself torn away from Natasha. She screams for you, but is suddenly silenced. You’re placed in a box and carried out of the arena. No one even realizes you’re still alive until Tony himself opens the lid.

Wait, isn’t Tony supposed to be dead? Natasha had beat him in the marble game.

Tony reaches into your box and presses his fingers against your neck before barking orders to the pink jumpsuits.

Instead of taking you to the furnace to be burned, you’re taken to some semblance of a medical facility. The doctors are good enough to keep you alive, but they can’t save your eye and your voice is permanently ruined.

Tony joins you for “dinner” one night, sitting by your side as you’re fed an unappealing gray paste through a tube in your nose. You pick up your little whiteboard and scrawl the words “Why” on it.

“For Natasha,” he says.

You point again at your “Why.”

“You gave her a second chance, so now I’m giving you yours,” Tony says.

“I want my mom,” you write.

Tony looks you in your surviving eye. “Your mom is dead.”

You shake your head.

“Yes. She’s dead.”

You won’t believe him; you can’t. The only reason you played the games was for her, and if she was really dead, then it was all for nothing. And you didn’t even have the chance to say good-bye to her.

During your slow, painful recovery, the only human interaction you receive is from your doctors, nurses, and Tony. You’re given old books to read and a notebook to write in. But it’s not enough stimulation for you and you want to leave (or die, you couldn’t really be picky).

When Tony makes his next visit to you, you write on your whiteboard, “Can I see Nat?”

“Not yet.”

“When?”

“When I’m ready.”

You don’t know what he means by that, but you have no choice but to be patient.

You wait almost a year in Tony’s captivity. As you grow stronger, Tony weakens, and you know his end is coming. He sends a nurse to bring you a new jacket and a debit card, and you know it’s time.

***********************************************************************

You stare at Natasha across the platform. Slowly, you raise your hand and wave to her. A train on your side of the platform rolls by and you board, still watching Natasha from the inside.

She finally waves to you as the train takes you away.

The Concept of Love: Midoriya Izuku

Read the first and second parts first! Or don’t, this fan fic can stand alone.

The Concept of Moving On | The Concept of Moving On II

Midoriya x Gender Neutral! Reader

Fluff; SFW

WC: 1.1k

You were about to rest your head down and place your headphones when a shaky hand reached your shoulder startling you.

“Oh sorry y/n, I didn't mean to startle you. I just wanted to invite you outside to talk.. If you’re free?” Midoriya asked.

You stood up straightening the wrinkles of your inform and followed the broccoli out of the room. You stood by the corridor with a now mumbling boy, you couldn’t understand what he was saying but you sensed he was a bit panicking, you went near him and grabbed his wrist. “Are you okay?” You asked, looking him in the eye.

“So I wanted to ask you to be my date for the Summer Festival, if it’s only okay with you and if you’re comfortable with me being your date and and and like you just recently ended things with Den-”

You cut him off, that seemed to be a rap. “Yes, I’d love to be your date to the summer festival.”

He went red, flustered, and more shaking. He was this excited when he got his All Might limited edition figure. “I’m really grateful!!, See you there!” he said, bowing, then proceeded to drag you back to the classroom.

It was a day before the Summer Festival and you were just walking around the mall alone. You suddenly came across a newly released All Might mug, you just knew you had to get it for Midoriya so you went inside and bought two mugs for the both of you. You spotted Midoriya as you left the store, you quickly shoved the mugs in your tote bag and approached him,“Midoriya!”

“Oh hey y/n, I didn’t know you’ll be here too.” Midoriya said, waving at you. Before you could speak, you heard your stomach rumble. “You seem hungry, c’mon let’s go eat!” he said, grabbing your hand, leading you to the nearest restaurant.

The restaurant wasn’t that fancy or plain, it was both to your liking, especially Midoriya who saw a limited edition poster by the counter. The waiter arrived and asked for your orders. When you gave your order, you secretly slipped your atm in the waiter’s order pad so that Midoriya wouldn’t debate with you that he should be the one paying.

While waiting for the food you told Midoriya to close his eyes, to which he immediately did.“Are you going to leave me here?” he asked, giving you a nervous laugh.

“Why would I do that?” you said, grabbing the mug from your bag, placing it in front of him. “Now open.”

You observed how his face lit up, his ear to ear smile really made your heart melt. It was too cute just to make it last a second, you quickly took a photo of him admiring the mug and saving it in your favorites folder.

“You know you don’t have to get me anything,” he looked at you blushing. “But I really appreciate it.”

“Wait,” you said, taking out the same mug that you had. “Look! I bought two so we’d have matching mugs.”

“That’s really cute! We’re like a couple having matching things,” he shyly pointed out. “Oh I don’t mean that we should be a couple right n-”

“You have your shot Midoriya, maybe a few more dates,” you cut him off, reaching for his hand for comfort and reassurance.

Before your table went silent, your food arrived and the waiter gave back your card. Midoriya looked at you confused.“Hey, I was supposed to be paying.”

“Says who?” You teased, sticking your tongue out.

“Says me, so the next date will be on me.” Midoriya reached out a hand for you to shake.

“Deal” You said, shaking his hands.

When your now-called-date ended, you went back to UA hand in hand. Making everyone’s head turn and gasping.

“Great job on getting a girlfriend, ” Iida said, aggressively shaking Midoriya’s free hand.

“Not yet, Iida” you laughed and shyly waved everyone goodnight as you escaped to your room.

The night of the festival came and while you were walking around with Midoriya, he spotted a ‘How Strong is Your Quirk’ stall that has a machine. Curious, he asked. “Hey look at that stall, do you want to check it out?”

You nodded and saw that the machine shows how strong your quirk is, both of you saw other students try it out showing 1000pts as a result. The line was a bit long so both of you had to wait.

“I’m sorry you have to wait in this line just for that silly machine,” he said fidgeting with the hem of his sleeves

“It’s okay, I enjoy spending time with you,” you said, slowly holding his face which turned into a blushing mess.

“Oh, it’s our turn!” He excused.

He positioned himself in front of the machine as the stall owner explained. “So you just have to hit this x mark in the middle, the highest gets the prize,” He said, holding up a big goldfish plushie.

Midoriya looked motivated and focused, then,“Full cowling!” striking the x with his fingers, technically breaking the machine into two.

Everyone stood there, stunned and speechless, Midoriya was frantically panicking. He looked around him, everyone was amazed and clapping. For a second he was confused.

“I’m sorry I broke your machine, how much will I pay for it?” he asked.

The stall owner let out a chuckle. “Dear boy, we’re literally in UA. We already know this is going to happen so no worries. Here grab the fish and give it to your girl. You deserve it,” giving Midoriya the huge goldfish plushie as the other stall supervisor started to clean.

“Thank you so much!” Midoriya bowed down to them and quickly grabbed your hand to avoid the scenario.

You rested at the fountain, with you hugging the plushie while leaning unto Midoriya’s shoulder. You gave him a light peck on the cheek, then faced him. “Thank you Midoriya, I really adore this prize. Are you still worried about the machine?”

“Well yeah, I just didn’t think that it would break like that” he said, looking down, “WAIT WHAT WAS THE KISS FOR?” Midoriya exclaimed as it just processed in his thoughts.

“As a thank you gift, you know, you’re more than just your quirk. I admire your growth ever since we got accepted at UA, I’m really proud of you.” You said, cupping his face.

He rested his forehead on yours. “Thank you, I appreciate that you saw how much work I’m putting into the training to be the number one hero.”

You closed the gap between the two of you, he held your face to deepen the kiss and you smiled midway.

As soon as you broke apart, he said, “you know, I’ve always asked the heavens to give you to me. Asides from wanting to be the number one here, I wanted to achieve my dreams with you by my side.”

You gave him a warm smile, squeezing his hands a bit, and said “And I will be there, my number one hero.”

A/N: Feel free to message me for any corrections, I'm willing to edit! დ

Birthday Wish

A/n: As promised, Bucky smut to celebrate this blog turning 3 on Wednesday!! And the first time I posted fanfiction! (And me turning 27...)

If you're not over 18 please don't read.

Proof read by way of a text-speech device

Pairing: Bucky Barnes/Reader (Female) friends to lovers

Word count: 2055

Warnings: 18 + Smut. Thigh ridinggg ;)

Plot: Bucky finds your fan blog, and decides to reward the birthday girl

(I'm posting this in May 2020, so you can imagine you and Bucky are stuck together because you're in quarantine like half the world is atm, but if you're reading this in the future when (hopefully!) we're a bit more free to move just imagine you're on a mission or awaiting rescue or something, and that's why you're together...)

(Part Two)

added in May 2021!

Birthday Masterlist – the other fics I've written on my birthday in the past 3 years are all here

Main Masterlist

*****

“Y/N? Can I borrow you for a minute?”

This isn't an unusual request from Bucky. Ever since he joined the team, the two of you have spent many hours together, working through one issue or another. Sometimes it'sa trivial problem, like how to use the fancy coffee machine or turn on the gyms sound system, other times its more delicate in its nature, such as helping him catch up on eighty years of rather eventful history, some of which he had an unwilling hand in.

More often than not though, it is to do with the internet, and the endless mess it throws at him. Judging by the laptop resting in front of where he's sat, you're guessing he's found something else to worry about.

“What seems to be the problem, Bucky?” You ask, wandering out of the kitchen and into the living room, taking a seat next to him on the sofa.

“No problem, not right now at least. I just wanted to talk.”

“Oh?”

He nods. “First, close your eyes.”

As instructed, you shut your eyes. Being isolated with Bucky for over a month now, you're so comfortable around him you don't even question his request, somehow knowing that his intentions aren't malicious. It feels like that trust goes both ways, too, as before this forced seclusion together he wouldn't have let you sit any wear near as you are right now.

“I found this in the supply cupboard last time I was using the vacuum. I thought it would be appropriate, given what day it is.”

Blinking your eyes back open as you feel him place something lightly on top of your hair, he smiles softly at you as you reach up to take it off and work out what it is.

“Happy birthday.”

Your gaze, which had been fixed on the sparkly tiara adorned with those two words in silver gems, snaps back up to meet his in shock.

“How-?”

“You think I'd forget?” He laughs kindly. “I was at your party last year.”

“But still, with everything-”

“I know, and I know why you didn't mention it.” He takes the tiara from your grip and replaces it upon your head. “You think just because we can't go out anywhere or see any of your other friends, then its not worth celebrating?”

“Kinda?”

“Doll,” He chides. “We can have fun together can't we?” The air in the room shifts and feels heavier as his fingers linger close to the side of your face, and you don't think it's your imagination that his voice has got deeper. “Isn't this what you wanted? Just you and me?”

“Err?”

He opens his laptop and turns it towards you. “This is the other thing I wanted to talk to you about. I think you'll find this quite interesting.”

Leaning into his space to see the screen, the image in the corner grabs your attention, and when he scrolls further down the page to reveal the whole picture, your body goes rigid with fear.

Bucky is on your blog.

More specifically, your fan blog dedicated to the man sitting next to you, where you've shared every dirty thought you've ever had about him, and had very explicit conversations about what you want him to do to you.

“Recognise this, Y/N?”

Time unfreezes, and as the adrenaline kicks in you stand so quickly you get dizzy, bolting for the front door to escape. Unfortunately your light-headedness makes you slow and Bucky easily catches up before you can get too far. Spinning you back round to face him and walking you half a step backwards to the wall, his hands come up on either side of your head to box you in, and you swallow at the audible 'click' of the lock as he commands the security system to seal you in.

“Where are you off to, sweetheart?”

You can't look at him. Never before have you regretted something more, wished you could turn back the clock, or just simply disappear. Why did you think you could get away with it? There's no one to blame for this situation but you and your stupid arrogance.

“I'm sorry,” You whisper, still avoiding eye contact. “I never meant for you to find that.”

“Clearly,” He says, laughing under his breath until he notices the tears forming. Tilting your head up so your gazes meet, he smiles reassuringly. “Hey, I'm not angry. Or creeped out or disgusted, or anything. I didn't let you know I'd found out to make you cry, especially not on you're birthday. So please don't get upset.”

Wiping at your cheeks gently, he continues to speak calmly. “I may seem clueless when it comes to technology, but I can put my own name into a search engine, and when I found this blog with very specific details about me only someone close would know, it didn't take long to put two and two together. Especially when they'd post about their day, couldn't be a coincidence every time that it was exactly what you'd done too, could it? I've known about this for a while now, if I felt uncomfortable about it I would have said something sooner.”

“Why now?” You whisper, letting one of your hands move up to grip at the hem of his top, a more pleasant sort of internal heat taking over from the shame even as your heart continues to race.

“Thought I'd fulfil that birthday wish you posted about this morning.”

You nearly go limp against the wall behind you at his words, so turned on you can't think straight, tugging sharply on his shirt as he chuckles at your reaction.

“Thought you might like that,” He grins slyly. “There is some absolute filth on that blog of yours, darling. Where's that Y/N been hiding?” Guiding your arms over his shoulder, his mouth presses kisses along the column of your neck. “Some of the things on there I never even knew existed, definitely not things I ever would've imagined you'd be into.”

Bucky pushes he hips into yours, and you gasp at the feel of his erection. “Sweet little innocent Y/N. Not so innocent it seems, hmm?”

Your positively dripping at this point, the ache in between your legs growing with every second Bucky fails to do anything about it.

“And what was it you were talking about earlier, huh?” He teases a hand over your collar bone, where your skin is flushed and hot to the touch. “Thigh riding?”

You whine as he says that, knowing how in-depth you'd gone on that particular post. “Oh yes, Y/N. I know all about how much you love having-”

“I've never actually-” You squeak out, voice breaking at the end as you try to defend yourself.

Most of your blog is just talk, without any real life experience to base it off, but that was what it is there for. An outlet for your frustrations, especially after spending all day with Bucky.

His surprised expression quickly morphs back into lust at your admission. “Never? How about you test it out then, see if it lives ups to the reality?”

You can barely get enough air into your lungs to stay upright, let alone form a reply, but he waits patiently as you process your thoughts.

Pushing all your nerves aside, you nod shyly. “I mean, I don't really know how-”

Grinning at obtaining your consent, he gracefully sweeps you up into his arms. “That's alright, we can figure it out together.”

He's sat back on the sofa before you know it, this time with you on top, his hands resting gently on your sides as you try to work out what you should do.

A light swat to your bottom makes you jump. “Come on, Y/N, don't keep me waiting.”

The slight dominance in his tone has you hurrying to comply, eager to please. Shuffling onto your knees so you can rise up off of his lap and quickly slip off your joggers, you lower yourself back down on to one of his thighs and rest your arms over his shoulder again as you breathe heavily.

Cautiously rolling your hips, the resulting spark of pleasure is a welcome surprise. Even in your lust fogged internet rambling, you had considered how awkward this could be outside of fantasy, but with Bucky its easy. It feels like his thigh was made for this, just the right size between your legs to have you whimpering, seeking out more as his hands on your waist push you to move faster.

“Oh, fuck Bucky,” You moan shakily, finding the perfect rhythm quickly with his help.

He watches open mouthed as you grind on him, pupils blown at the sight. “That's it, good girl. Take what you need.”

You hadn't expected it to feel so good, even though you're still wearing your panties, and Bucky's own trousers are soaked with the evidence of your arousal. Normally you need a lot of stimulation to feel good, a lot of build up to get you anywhere close, and before today you couldn't imagine anything could feel this intense this fast.

Maybe its the days and weeks of confinement that have had you on edge and frustrated constantly, or maybe its just because its Bucky Barnes, but either way, your high is nearing in record time and there's not a thing you can do to stop it.

“Bucky, I'm-”

“I know sweetheart, I've got you. Let go.”

His wish is your command, your body shuddering as you reach your climax, clinging desperately to him as white hot pleasure shoots through you, your toes curling and breath coming in shakily. He helps you through it, moving his thumb to rub circles over your clit just as you're recovering, sending you into another spiral of bliss, his name mumbled quietly as you twitch.

Bucky watches you closely as you come down, your body going floppy in his hold once the ringing in your ears dies down, and then his lips are on yours for the first time, hands cupping your face to keep you close. He can't resist you, not when you're all blissed-out and pliant in his lap.

Nobody could resist you like that.

Too quickly for you to react and return the kiss, he's jolting away, back pressing into the cushions of the sofa as if he's trying to escape.

“Shit, I'm sorry,” He gasps, avoiding your puzzled stare. “I shouldn't have done that, I don't even know if you like me in that way-”

You cut of his panicked rambling by pressing your mouth to his again, not able to kiss him properly as you're still short of breath, just pecking at his lips clumsily in an attempt to convince him of your deep feelings.

In a reversal of roles from earlier, you rest your forehead against his to catch his eye. “Of course I like you outside of... this. I like you a lot Bucky, and I'd like you a lot more if you kissed me again.”

He does just that, sucking gently on your lower lip when he pulls away with a grin. “Would you also like to have dinner with me tonight?” He asks, a little of his confidence back as he anticipates your answer. “I know we can't go out properly, but it could still be a date?”

“I'd love that,” You say, leaning into his chest happily.

He grunts quietly as you shift in his hold, your elation at finally getting everything you want with Bucky making you forget for a second about his own arousal still trapped between your bodies.

Deliberately rocking your hips into his again, his eyes darken at your giggled, “Oops?”

“Little brat. Just because you're wearing that tiara doesn't mean you can act like a princess. Was that not enough to satisfy you?” At the shake of your head, he purses his lips “Well, I'm not that hungry quite yet. I think it would be a good idea to go work up an appetite, and maybe work through your other little fantasies?”

Picking you up and carrying you in the general direction of the bedrooms, Bucky's smirk has you squirming all over again.

“If I remember correctly, there was something on that blog of yours about my face between your thighs.”

******

(Part Two)

A/n: Happy birthday if it is your birthday today!!! all the kissess xxxxxxxx
