#Jesus. just finished my interview. no idea how it went#i think it was much too rambling on my part and they asked almost exclusively sciency questions#ugh hopefully i didn't look like a completle moron. the guy was sorta inscrutable so no idea what he thought#and he was like hmm whats ur competition here? and i dont give a fuck abt competition and also it doesnt really matter#fuck. i should have said. it would b fine if they were doing the exact same project bc we would b evolving different strains and it would b#interesting if they evolved even the exact same traits. fuck#i think objectively i probably looked like someone who halfway knows what theyre doing without the specific knowledge#which is exactly true. like mother fuckers ive got a full time job to be overworked in. i dont have time to memorize details of every#pathway change in every desert cyano#uuuuugh its just annoying bc my brain doesnt work well in the moment. i need time to process and knit together an answer#so i wouldnt b surprised if i was ranked low. oh god i was told the interview was prob a formality unless it goes terribly#itll b real embarrassing if i dont get passed this stage now#whatever it was a bit chaotic on their end too bc one guy didnt show up until halfway thru so i kinda had to go back and say things twice#uuuuuuuuuuggh. well that kinda sucked. at least its done. out of my hands now.#i was getting too excited abt it anyway. this will reaffirm my: obviously im not gonna get it vibes#i mean thats what i get for trying to join a very competitive program. like i am not a competitive person#rip to my lab mate who im gonna whine at all day abt this. i have to meet him in less than an hour#welp. there r other schools. god i hope at least one of them accepts me#ugh i just think its kinda annoying they they want u to be perfectly qualified for things lol. like i would need someone to step thru the#lab process with me literally once or twice and then id be good to go#like maybe a couple hours of someones time to remind me. thats it. humans r adaptable#i can obviously carry out a project to its conclusion and i have a lot of passion. not that they asked. but yeah#oh well. i should have breakfast before i freeze in the desert all day#unrelated

Silver, Idia: Believe in the Me that Believes in You
I’m not a huge fan of Silver, but his Broomquet Groovy is one of my favorites ^^ I really love the color of the sky and how the birdies have come to fly with him!
Silver talks about training with Lilia in this interview; I kept thinking of Mulan's training montage during it. He also mentions that Lilia pat his head for the first time in a while and told him he's grown into a fine young man so of course I had to make jokes about how "it'll be the final time" and "Lilia's finally booting Silver out of the house now that he's 18 so papa can fuck off to retirement"—
A Boy in Bloom, and his Flowering Future.
Tumblr media
"How do you spend your days off?"
Idia looked up from his clipboard. H-Huh?! Do I really have to ask this?! I-Isn't it obvious what Silver-shi's answer will be? Obviously, an air-headed macho man like him's going to say...
“When possible, I work on my equestrian skills and horse handling technique. Otherwise, I train.”
“O-Oh… right…” Idia failed to curb his lack of enthusiasm.
See?! I totally predicted that!! He’s got zero brain cells upstairs, all the brain cells were beaten out of existence by his muscles! Now all that's left is a space-case!
Silver took one look at Idia’s bug-eyed stare, and a realization (the wrong realization) set in. “Are you curious about my regimen? I’m sorry, I will elaborate.
"As one of the young master's knights, it is my responsibility to protect him. This requires maintaining peak physical performance. To begin with, my regular warm-up involves stretching, then 100 sit ups, 100 push-ups, 100 squats, and a 10 kilometer run."
"B-B-BWEH?!" Idia practically choked on his own saliva. "D-Did you really just say all of THAT for a warm-up?! And you do that willingly? For FUN?!“
"Yes, that's right. It's very light and helps to wake my body up. After that is when the 'real' training begins. I do cardio and focus on different parts of the body depending on the day of the week."
"Wh-When do you find the time to take breaks?! J-Just listening to you describe your daily exercise is making my muscles cry..."
"Ah, you're wondering how I'm able to keep up with my routine."
Huh?! It's like this guy just button mashed his way past NPC dialogue and only got the gist of what I just said!! I didn't think it was possible to meet someone that runs on autopilot IRL!!
"From a young age, my father instilled in me the importance of staying active and fit." Silver smiled fondly at the thought, ignorant to Idia's woes. “He set up obstacles courses and would give me chores that built up my strength. I’d also play tag with the animals when I wasn’t chopping wood or fetching pails of water for us.
“Sometimes Sebek would join me. We’d have a lot of fun together braving spiked pits, climbing cliffs, and surviving in the wild with only the clothes on our backs. We came out of it stronger in body, mind, and heart—they were very valuable experiences for us.”
Serenity never parted from Silver’s face the entire time he described his hellish childhood. Meanwhile, his interviewer had progressively grown paler and paler. Now he was the exact hue of a fresh corpse.
“Hmm? You don’t look too good, Idia-senpai,” Silver noted. Worry suddenly marred his gentle beauty.
He jumped. “N-Nope! I-I'm fine, my health is at max!!"
A lie—the entire interview had been mentally draining for the introvert.
"Are you sure?" Silver stepped closer, his expression turning deadly serious. “If you’re feeling unwell…”
Idia gulped. He wasn’t certain if he was overheating from the scorching May day or if it was his nerves getting the better of him.
“… You should work out with me and Sebek. I’m sure he won’t mind the extra company.”
A freight train slammed into Idia’s gut. He staggered back, mouth hanging open at the audacity of Silver’s suggestion, the one million and one things wrong with it.
"A-Are you crazy or what?! Th-There's no way I'd survive!! The only exercise I do is waving light sticks around for idol concerts, I can't handle anything more than that! P-Plus, a shut-in otaku like me can't deal with being shouted at just for existing, I’ll instantly fold!!"
“I understand, Idia-senpai.”
For a moment, his hopes welled. “A-Alright, GG. We’re done with the interview then. You can get going on the birthday road now…”
But much to Idia’s horror, the birthday boy continued.
“I also told myself, ‘I can’t do this’ and, ‘I want to give up’ when I first started my fitness journey—but throughout all my doubts, my father was there to support me, and Sebek was my friend and rival, motivating me to improve.
“At NRC too… I’ve met people who support me. I can ride a horse as well as I can because Riddle instructed me. I won an arm wrestling contest because my classmates cheered me on. There are many things I was able to do only because others were there for me in my time of need.”
“Where… are you going with this shounen anime protag speech?” Idia asked warily.
“It’s hard to do it alone, but you’re not alone at all, senpai. I will be there to cheer you on, and we can work together to help you accomplish wellness goals.” Silver stated matter-of-factly. “I believe in you, so please believe in yourself!”
“E-Eh…? Seriously, what’s with you… Is everything I’m saying going in one ear and out the other?”
H-How can one person be a literal beacon of light and goodness in the world?! Is Silver-shi really the kind of person who tries to empathize with even the characters fandoms unanimously hate? Would he walk up to a broom and try to shake its hand?
A firm pat on the shoulder snapped Idia out of his spiraling thoughts. He found Silver staring him down, an encouraging smile on his lips.
"I need to head off on the birthday road now, but I want you to know that you're always welcome to my workout sessions, and I'll always be in your corner."
"W-Wait," Idia stammered meekly, "I never agreed to take you up on your offer... P-Please tell me you won’t show up unannounced in my dorm to drag me outside…!!”
WHOOSH!
The Ignihyde dorm leader was silenced by a powerful kickback of magic to the face. The fire of his hair flew around him—and when the flames cleared out of his sight, he saw that Silver was already a dot in the distance.
Petals danced upon the breeze, as white as the clouds stretched across the brilliantly cerulean sky. Night Raven College was drenched in golden sunlight, and spring come out in full force. The day was as picturesque as an image straight out of a storybook.
Thrilled song filled the sky as a procession of birds joined him in flight. Pink, green, blue—a flurry of colored feathers as they hurried to Silver’s side.
One planted a light peck on his cheek, another nibbled on the ribbon trailing from his bouquet. The third paved his way, trumpeting the arrival of a prince, pure of heart, with his beloved animal companions.
It was as though Mother Nature's messengers had come out to wish Silver a happy birthday.
Idia was almost mesmerized by the sight.
Almost.
“Silver-shi really does belong in a whole new world… far, far away from me!!”

b-sides & rarities
– for @wincestwednesdays flash event prompt 3: radio
Dean never liked to listen to the radio. Always claimed even the classic rock stations were trash; for every seven or eight good songs they’d play something he hated that wasn’t even technically the right genre, and don’t you understand that with my tapes that just ain’t an issue, Sammy? And besides, he always said, with that force in his voice that meant he was gearing up for a big rant, there’s no annoying-voiced disc jockeys to piss him off when it’s a cassette playing instead of the goddamn radio.
I got it, I guess. Commercials could be grating, and so could having to fiddle with the dial every time we got out of the territory of one radio tower and into the next. But as a kid it mostly just pissed me off. I wanted to be normal so badly, and I was convinced that normal included a family that would let you listen to Top 40 or the alt station. I was convinced it meant a brother who wasn’t trying so hard to emulate our father that he kept a box of the same exact tapes Dad had in his truck, under his passenger seat.
I was wrong, of course. Having parents that were stuck in their ways music-wise was maybe the most normal thing about our family, but I never really got close enough with anybody to discuss it. I had friends at some schools, sort of, but I never wanted to talk about Dad and Dean always had enough of a reputation around town that I never wanted to bring him up. I was jealous, of course I was, but I kept telling myself that was about the way girls flocked to him and not about the girls being with him in general.
A part of me knew, though. A part of me knew that my obsession with the girls and normalcy and an ordinary family with everyday jobs had to do with my feelings for Dean. The jealousy, the pining. In the end, I guess that worked out for me. It just took years and years of situations nobody should ever have to be put in first.
I don’t think I’d trade my life for anything, despite all the bullshit; sure there’s things that I wish had never happened and things that I wish neither of us had to ever experience. Dad, too. And Mom. But, I don’t know. It’s hard to think of a life lived without him, or a life lived where he’s just my brother and we have an appropriate relationship between us. A life lived where even if we were close – and there was always the chance that we wouldn’t have even been close – I’d never know his touch or what his voice sounds like when he’s about to finish or see him, however occasionally, in his most vulnerable moments. Even if that would’ve made things easier when he went, I don’t think I’d have wanted it.
Anyway, I don’t really take the car out, but I don’t listen to the radio either. Feels like one thing I can do to honor his memory, I guess. Maybe it’s stupid, I don’t know. But it’s nice to think about him cracking a smile, telling me he’s proud, even if I’ve moved on from cassettes straight to music on my phone. No annoying ass commercials, right? He’d say it with a grin. I can hear it; he’s talking all muffled from tearing at beef jerky with his teeth. No stupid deejays, huh? Only you and the music.
On days when it really fucking sucks, because there are days when it really fucking sucks, and I want to just end it all, I will actually go ahead and put on one of his tapes. The dad rock, the mullet rock, the Zeppelin I’ve heard so many times I could sing along just fine if I wanted to. It’s not only me and the music. There’s somebody else around.

There is a certain hit dog/hollering predictability when it comes to Nancy Pelosi saying something and how the far-left react to it. Firstly it is important to make clear that during her CNN interview on Sunday she said "some" pro-ceasefire groups should have their funding investigated. Some, not all. Of course that distinction immediately got lost in the hoopla of faux outrage that followed from some quarters of the internet. She also said that there are large numbers of people out there who are sincere in their concern and their protests. You wouldn't know this though from the storm that followed.
Let's be clear, only a naive person would believe that there aren't some nefarious outside parties using the current situation in the Middle East as a wedge among Democrats. It's a pattern that we have seen before - notably in 2016 and again in 2020. It makes perfect sense to assume that it will happen again in 2024, and indeed is already happening. If it hadn't been the issue of the Middle East, then it would have no doubt been something else. 
Israel/Palestine isn't a new conflict, in fact it is very old indeed - but the sheer number of new groups popping up in the last new months should raise red flags as to what their exact concerns are. Another red flag is that only Democrats are targetted. Now you might counter that a Democrat is President, but given the GOP control the House (and in turn the money), and that Israel is one the very few issues that most Democrats and Republicans agree on, you would assume that the GOP should be getting some of the flak from protest groups too. I have yet to see one GOP member get yelled at or protested on the issue of Gaza. Speaker Mike Johnson appears to be sailing through life without so much as a whimper in his direction from the ceasefire contingent. Trump sure as hell is. I have yet to see one person ask him to call for a ceasefire, and he a) besties with Netanyahu, and b) running for the job that so many of the protestors say they don't want Biden to have anymore because of the current situation. Red flag number three is that some of these groups have infiltrated Dem fundraiser events. Those events aren't cheap to attend. A seat at a dinner, like the one that Nancy attended on Saturday in Seattle, and that she was interupted repeatedly at, is at least a couple of grand per person. How many protest groups do you know that have that kind of income to hand to just use on stunts like the one at the weekend?
The thing is, much like Cassandra of Greek myth, and indeed Hillary Clinton of modern times, Nancy Pelosi knows what she is talking about but frequently pisses off people who don't like to hear what she has to say. She has been around long enough to know that causes get corrupted, used, taken over by forces that couldn't give a fuck about the issue, but instead seek to create chaos and division. She has seen it for 17 years on her own door step in the form of Code Pink - a supposedly anti-war group that is actually funded by the CCP, and who among other things take the view that the Uygurs are absolutely fine in China, that the war in Ukraine would just end if the US and the rest of the West stopped giving them money and let Russia win, and that Iran should be allowed to build missiles because the US has them. Incidentally, Code Pink were the group in the clip that did the rounds yesterday. For the record, none of the women in that clip are Asian, it was from a couple of months ago (some brazenly claimed it was from this week), and Nancy was again hitting the nail on the head when she said they should go back to their headquaters in China - because, as verified by the New York Times, that is indeed where their money is coming from - the CCP. If China can so easily fund a group in the US like Code Pink, then it stands to reason that other countries are doing the same. It makes perfect sense to question how some groups can afford to pull off stunts costing several thousand dollars. Where is the money coming from? Why are they only targeting Democrats? In a Presidential election year, in which the choices are a guy that Putin hates or a wannabe dictator who does his bidding, it's not unreasonable to ask the question as to how some protest groups can afford to do what they are doing. Asking that question doesn't undermine legitimate protests.

Tumblr media
The next morning you were abruptly woken by a phone call from your production team representative, you walked into the living room leaving Bucky be in bed. “Hello?” You asked, Alex started to explain what was going on, you paced back and forth while the phone call continued on. 
Bucky walked in while you were on another phone call, but had a delicious breakfast laid out on the kitchen island, you sat at one of the stools, on the phone. “Okay, so what we need to do is move the shoot day to the thirtieth so that I can be there to monitor what's happening.” You spoke quickly, the conversation continued until your assistant had to go and help someone, you looked up at Bucky. “Morning.” 
“I see you already got a start.” He smirked as he chewed on a piece of toast, pouring a glass of champagne. “So when is the uber coming?”
You sighed. “Fuck, I forgot.” You rolled your eyes at yourself. 
“Hey look it’s alright, I can get one of my roommates to come get me.” He shrugged, continuing to get food off the plates. 
Then your phone rang, it was Val. “Hey, so are you still planning on coming to the club thing this afternoon after your meetings?” She asked.
“Yeah, I mean some important clientele are going to be there.” You told her. Bucky stood up. “I’m gonna go wash up before I go.” He whispered as you nodded at what he said. 
You walked away back to the bedroom to get ready. “Look Y/n, I don't like you going by yourself, you should have a date. I have a lot of hot guy friends. I could find you someone.” 
You heard a low hum from the bathroom, walking in finding Bucky in the shower wearing a pair of airpods, you watched as he stood in the shower slightly dancing to the song. “No, I have someone in mind, I gotta go.” You hung up, then walked into the bathroom taking off the white fluffy robe you wore all morning, you got into the shower with Bucky, he finally came back to the real world taking out the earbuds. “I was wondering would you stay a few days?” You asked. 
“What for?” He asked you.
You sighed. “I have a full week of things to do, and my friend and lawyer, Val, thinks I should have a date for them, think of it as a uh business proposition, and I’ll pay you for every night you stay.”
Bucky nodded. “Okay, yeah that’s alright, sounds great.” He smiled.
“So uh ballpark me how much is it gonna cost for the full week excluding tonight?” You asked, looking fully confident with your hands on your nude hips. 
“8,000.” He stated. 
 “8,000?” You scoffed. 
Bucky rolled his eyes. “You're asking for days too, so what does your math put you at?”
“Exact math would be, about 2,700.” You stated. 
“Fine 5,000.” He huffed out. 
You shook your head. “3,000.” 
“6,000.” He went first. “4,000.” You shot back “7,000.” He stated.
You smirked.“Deal.” 
“Holy shit!” He laughed. 
You smiled laughing with the man.“Alright, I gotta get ready, and I’m gonna leave you some money to get a suit and some nice clothes, along with the money from last night.” You told him, before getting out.
You walked into the closet that you had all the clothes you packed, you chose a maroon shirt and gray pants to wear for the majority of the day. Up until you had to go to the country club thing that afternoon, you walked into the living room finding Bucky in the same clothes as the night prior, you walked over and handed him a wad of cash. “Here, as payment and for clothes.” You smiled at him.
“Jesus!” Bucky exclaimed at the thick wad. “I mean yeah I get three hundred an hour and that adds to like 1200-1800 up but there's gotta be like I dunno like 3,700$?” 
You laughed. “4,266 exact, 2,4oo for the night, and 1,866 for clothes and a nice suit. I did my math and got the money this morning, I’ve gotta go but I’ll be back later.” You went to the elevator to  head down. 
“I would have stayed for 2700 you know.” Bucky spoke. 
“And I would have paid 8,000.” You smirked just as the elevator doors closed in front of you.
Bucky was ecstatic at the deal, it was going to be worth it pulse he got new clothes basically for free, he headed down to the lobby walking towards the doors. “Sir.” He was stopped by a man. “One of the employees here last night told me you were up in Mis. Y/l/n's room last night with her look we uh don’t allow-”
“It’s alright, she and I are business partners.” He started walking away. 
The man followed him. “If that’s what you wanna call it. Look sir, I’m gonna need you to leave, and don’t come back.” 
“Look, you can call her and ask her.” Bucky changed direction’s heading to the front desk instead, the man left to call you, once there Bucky held the 2,400$. “Hey, uh my friend will be coming here while I’m gone to get it, will you give it to either Steve Rogers or Sam Willson.” The lady replied with a smile and a yes. 
You were in a taxi figuring it would be the quickest way to your business brunch, when your phone rang. “Hello?” You asked. 
“Hello, Mis. Y/l/n, this is Jarvis the l manager, there is a man here who says you are ‘business partners’.” He explained to you. 
You nodded, sighing. “Uh yeah he’s James Barnes, he’s my current boyfriend we’re just trying to keep it under wraps right now, if he does need any help with anything, would you be willing to help?” 
“Yes ma’am thank you for explaining, have a good day.” He replied before hanging up. 
Bucky walked out of the hotel looking for a store, he walked into a random store and looked around, he walked up front to ask one of the women for help. “Hey uh i’m looking for a suit, like a really nice one.” He almost exaggerated. 
The woman looked at him. “I’m sorry sir, I’m not quite sure we’re what you're looking for.”
“I-I mean you had men’s clothing up front I just assumed you would have suits.” He explained to her. 
“We do, I just don’t think you’d have enough to get clothes from here.” She said judgingly. 
“Whatever, just going to warn you, you just made a big mistake.” He warned before leaving once out of the store he walked away. After a few more failures he went back to the hotel empty handed, when walking in, Jarvis. “Look man now isn’t really the time.” Bucky told him.
“Mis. Y/l/n said to help you if you needed any and you looked a little long.” Jarvis said. “What can I do for you Mr. Barnes?” “I need a nice suit pulse some nicer clothing.” Bucky replied. 
Jarvis nodded before dialing someone and talking to someone on one of the hotel's front desk phones, once off the phone, he walked over to Bucky. “Go to this address, my friend Maria will help you.” 
Bucky left once again and got a taxi, the taxi pulled up to the nice building and Bucky paid the driver, before getting out, he walked into the building, when a strawberry blond woman walked up she looked maybe about fifty-sixty. “Hello, are you James?” She asked. 
“Yeah, but just call me Bucky, are you Maria?” He asked, the woman nodded. 
She smiled. “Let's find you some clothes.” 
Later Bucky walked into the hotel once again, now wearing some of the clothes he bought, he rode up in the elevator to the room. 
You were in a very heated phone call with a friend of yours who was also an associate, it calmed down. “It’s alright, okay, I’ll see you later today, bye.” The call ended, you turned to see Bucky standing there, in some of his new clothes, a white sweater shirt, along with gray pants similar to what you currently wore but less baggy and black loafers, the shirt defined your muscles, your eyes felt as though there was a trick being pulled on you. 
“Do you like it?” He asked with a bit of hesitation. 
You nodded. “Um y-yes I do like it, it looks goo-great.” 
“What time are we going to the thing?” He asked, now smirking a little cocky knowing he made you flustered. 
“Soon, I just gotta get dressed real quick, then we’ll leave, also we gotta drive the car again because I need to give it back to Val.” You explained, before heading towards the master bedroom.
“I’m driving, you scare me when you drive.” He called after you. 
You laughed. “I was hoping you would.” Once in the master bedroom, you walked into the closet, pulled out a dress and shoes, kicked off your heels, then pulled the shirt over your head, and slid down your pants. You pulled on the black dress with the sheer sleeves, and the ankle boots on. You fixed your makeup so that it would match this outfit, it was a muted and natural look with lip gloss on your light pink lips, you walked out to the living room. Bucky looked up at you with a smile and you could see him taking you in. “Are you ready to leave?” 
“Uh yeah.” He nodded, blinking a few times after staring. 
The two of you rode down to the underground parking structure, Bucky put on his charm, he opened the passenger door for you, before you got in, and he followed getting in the driver seat, he started the nice car and started driving, putting the location in on the map on his phone, as he drove you looked at him. “So, I got the phone call from Mr. Jarvis, I’m not mad I promise, but in order to cover for you I said that we’re in a relationship and we’re just keeping it under wraps at the moment.” 
Bucky smirked and side eyed at you. “I’m alright with that.” He said it slyly. 
You rolled your eyes. “So, where did you get your clothes?” 
“Jarvis helped me after a bunch of places turned me away, he had a friend help me choose it out.” He explained. “Um I did get a suit and this, but not much else.” 
You nodded. “How about, tomorrow morning we go and get some other things for you and I, ‘take the morning off’.”  You said with a quotation. 
“What does that mean?” Bucky asked, confused. 
You huffed a laugh. “We go get more clothes for ya’ and I’ll be there, but I will still be taking phone calls and stuff.” 
“What? Y/n I really don’t need all this.” He said. 
You nodded. “I know but I want to do this for you.” You smiled at him softly. 
The two of you arrived at the club and parked, walking in, one of the older sons of a business partner, was playing polo in the background, Val came walking up. “Do you actually like this?” She asked about the men on the horses. 
You side eyed her. “No, not really my sport, but whatever it’s the most entertaining thing here at the moment.” 
“Really because that guy you brought seems to be the most entertaining to everyone else.” She arched her brow when looking at the man, you turned to see Bucky talking to a group of your friends, and you smiled. 
“Excuse me, Y/n can I have a word.” The older man, about the age your father was, and you excused yourself from Val and followed the man. “How can I help you, Mr. Osborn?” You asked him with a polite smile. 
“Well Mis. Y/l/n, I have a business proposition for you.” He offered  as the two of you walking away from the group of people. 
Bucky had gotten caught up in a conversation, while the person who he was speaking to spoke he looked up to try and find you, but you weren’t where you were before, he looked in different directions seeing you walking and talking with an older man, a cigarette between your soft lips, he excused himself walking towards you and the stranger. 
“I would like to bring the companies together fifty fifty from both profits.” Normand spoke as you let the smoke slip though your lips. 
“My lawyer Val could write up a contract, but first I’d like to know why would you want to combine?” You asked seriously.
“Because imagine what we could do bringing  my scientist along with your engineers together, but what I also want to propose is no contract, I know you haven’t been able to find a partner as flexible as you need one to be, because I understand being work oriented, and so does my son, I was thinking what if you two marry one another to actually tie them together?” He offered. 
You huffed. “Mr. Osborne, I and Harry have no common interest.” 
“I mean your a large company owner, and he is learning to take over a large company and he-” 
Bucky cut him off. “Hey, uh Y/n, people are looking for you.” 
Osborne looked at Bucky. “Who is this Mis. Y/l/n?” 
“I’m her boyfriend, I have been for a while now.” He lied to the stranger, having seen how right before he came up you looked uncomfortable. “I just couldn��t make it to the party yesterday because of an important meeting, James Barnes, now if you don’t mind my gal has some other important things she should get to.” He led you away.  
Once far enough, you looked up at him with minimal irritation. “I had it under control.” 
He arched his brow. “You did?” You nodded. “It didn’t look like that, what the hell was he saying to you?” 
You huffed, more smoke coming out from your cigarette, in which Bucky took from between your lips and put it out, you glared up at him. “I was smoking th-” “No at the moment, besides I'm lookin’ out for ya.” He shrugged. 
You rolled your eyes. “Anyways he was talking about a business deal, including me marrying his son.” 
Bucky laughed. “Okay so now you think you're ready for marriage when you already don’t really know how to love people, and I thought you were smart, I’m joking you are, but thats a stupid idea as I see it, pluse isn’t he one of the guys on the horses?” You nodded. “Too snobby for you.” 
The two of you got back to the hotel that night via a taxi, once in the room, you turned to Bucky. “Thank you I guess for pulling me away from the conversation, also there’s a dinner tomorrow, I did say a full week of stuff.”
“I know.” He smirked, he stretched. “Fuck I’m tiered, I’ll see you later.” 
“Night.” You smiled at him. 
Later you sat in a chair you brought from the living room looking at the night sky from afar sitting at the door of the balcony nursing a hard scotch, and a cigarette. Bucky came from behind you. “I thought you didn’t like heights.” He spoke up. 
“As long as I don’t look forward or down, I’ll be fine.” You smiled at him, he walked onto the balcony and hiked himself up on the thick edge. “Please don’t.” You looked away out of fear. 
“I’m fine.” He smirked, then got off seeing how discomforted you were by what he was doing. He kneeled in front of you, cupping your face. “Look I’m alright.” 
You looked at him. “Never do that again.” You sighed, wrapping your arms around his neck, in a hug.
“Come on, let me take you to bed.” He mumbled into your hair.

The rest of you people in the Murderbot fandom better start calling out the fucking aroacemisia, ableism, and transmisia in this fandom or you're just as a fucking bad, for the record.
Correct people when they misgender Murderbot if they're new to the series and are doing it by honest mistake.
A simple "Just so you know, Murderbot's pronouns are it/its, not ___ :)" can fucking suffice. You can literally even copy and paste that and just put in whatever pronouns it's being misgendered with.
Call out people who are doing it purposefully and knowingly.
Refusing to use someone's pronouns is always fucking transmisic, and it's not okay to misgender people who use it/its pronouns any more than it's okay to misgender someone who uses he/him, she/her, or they/them.
Any fucking argument anyone tries to use to justify misgendering Murderbot or any other character who uses it/its pronouns in this series is an argument that is used to justify misgendering me and other real people who use it/its pronouns.
People using it/its pronouns is not some hypothetical theoretical idea that only exists in fiction. We are real people and we deserve respect, and if you can't even pretend to respect our fictional counterparts, then you just need to admit you're a transmisic.
Call out people who erase Murderbot's touch-aversion and act like it's something that needs to be fixed/something ~love~ can or should fix.
The Murderbot Diaries is literally the only fucking actual representation of touch-aversion I have EVER FUCKING SEEN where it is actually portrayed respectfully without being treated like a joke where character A says they don't like hugs and character B immediately hugs them and refuses to let go and says A needs to just admit they love it already.
I swear to fucking god. I finally find actual representation for touch-aversion that does it right, and of fucking course ableists in the fandom have to fucking ruin everything by pretending "it's not actually touch-averse, it just has trust issues! It's not actually touch-averse, it just tells itself that so it doesn't think about how much it wants someone to touch it!!!! It's not really touch-averse, it's just never been touched by someone it likes!!!"
Literally shut the fuck up. Touch-aversion is not something that needs to be fucking cured. It is not something you have the right to fucking erase when The Murderbot Diaries actually fucking portrays it respectfully.
Call out people who erase Murderbot's aromanticism to pretend like it's just asexual. I am so fucking sick and tired of aromisia. Everyone acts like they're totally fine with ace people now but nooo, respecting aro people is taking it too far, apparently.
Fucking amisics spent years hating on and and sending death threats to anyone who used the Split Attraction Model, but now aromisics think it gives them a free pass to insist that characters who they'll admit are ace can still be shipped romantically because being ace doesn't always mean you're aro!!! The exact same fucking way amisics said only "lgbt aces" were fucking acceptable.
Murderbot is not just ace. It is not just repulsed by sex. It is aro. It is just as repulsed by the idea of being in a romantic relationship as it is of having sex. It literally said it would rather stab itself in the face than listen to people talk about their romantic relationship or have sex. Its reaction to being asked if it has "a relationship" with ART is horror and disgust to the point that it's shouting, even after Ratthi clarifies that he didn't mean a sexual relationship. Murderbot still finds the word 'relationship' disgusting, even when it's been clarified that it's not referring to a sexual relationship. It still finds the idea of being in a romantic relationship, literally this is a quote, "disgusting"
Literally here is the quote:
It still sounded disgusting. “Do you have to call it a relationship?”
Aromisics arguing that there's no evidence for Murderbot being aro and claiming "that's just fanon" because the word "aromantic" itself is never used is just fucking absurd. By that reasoning, Murderbot isn't fuckng asexual either, or touch-averse, or nonbinary, since the word "asexual", "touch-averse", and "nonbinary" aren't ever fucking used either -.-
Literally imagine being so aromisic and obsessed with shipping that you look at a character who literally says it'd rather stab itself in the face than listen to conversations about romantic relationships and arguing that "there's no evidence that it's aromantic". Literally imagine being that fucking aromisic and obsessed with shipping.
Murderbot does not need to be in a romantic relationship to be happy. Murderbot does not need to be in a sexual relationship to be happy. Murderbot does not need to "admit it enjoys being touched" to be happy. Murderbot does not need to change its pronouns to be happy.
You people are just transmisic, acemisia, aromisic, and ableist.
You are missing the entire fucking point of this series -- that people who are different from you do not need to become like you in order to be treated with respect.
If you refuse to interact with media without frantically searching for romance to ship, go read literally any other fucking book series, or find something by literally any other fucking author. Martha Wells has been writing aro characters for years.
If you think Murderbot's not aromantic because the word "aro" isn't ever specifically used, you are, quite literally, an aromisic. Are you going to argue next that it's not really nonbinary since it the word "nonbinary" isn't ever specifically used, either????
Literally not even in reference to Rami does the actual word "nonbinary" get used. Are you gonna argue that Rami is actually totally a binary man or woman, then????
Other fucking people in this fandom better start calling out this fucking bigotry. I'm sick of it.
This is literally the only thing I have ever seen where touch-averse characters are actually treated with respect, to the point that before I read these, when I made a post criticizing the fact that no one literally ever respects touch-averse characters in any stories I've ever seen and just treats our boundaries like hilarious jokes to violate, I had half a dozen people in the notes recommending this series. Because it's literally the only fucking representation anyone's ever fucking found.
If you do not use it/its pronouns, you have an ever greater fucking responsibility towards calling out people misgendering Murderbot in this fandom. I am tired of having to fucking call out people who are being transmisic towards people like me. I am tired of having to listen to their arguments about why it's actually perfectly fine to misgender people who use it/its pronouns.
Call out the bigotry in this fucking fandom, especially if you are not the target of that fucking bigotry.
If you are not aromantic, if you are not touch-averse, if you don't use it/its pronouns, you better do your fucking part to defend the people who are.
This fandom won't be fucking welcoming to people who are actually like Murderbot unless the people who aren't step up and do their fucking part to make it hostile to the bigots who think they can erase every part of Murderbot's identity that's inconvenient for them.
If you claim to care about Murderbot as a character, then do your fucking part to make this fandom actually safe and welcoming to people who share the same fucking identities that Murderbot has.

Outer Banks 2x06
And all of a sudden people treat him like he's their best fucking friend. Like they didn't just believe he killed the Sherriff less than 12 hours ago.
"All that work for nothing."
"Fullproof."
Uh it actually worked just busted the wrong guy out.
Aww Topper made her breakfast in bed... I need that in my life. Breakfast in bed. Not a Topper. And a red flag went off when he offered her the phone.
Ward is really taking JJ's advice of "Deny, deny, deny," to a whole new level. He's practically drowning in the river. He should be arrested for fabricating and accessory.
"You know what they say about being in a hole? Best thing you can do is stop digging." Mic drop.
"Someone had to save your girlfriend." And right back around to being an asshole. Low blow, Topper.
I can't believe Sarah just... Girl, that ain't just your boyfriend. That's your husband, hubby, mate, partner in life and death. All that. I felt like she didn't wanna tell Topper cause she still has some unresolved feelings for him. Not saying she's not in love with him just still cares about him deeply and didn't face that. She just jumped to the next guy.
Kie's a great gal, she is but her change in emotions really give me whiplash. Damn.
"Did I raise you to back down from a fight boy? Now, I didn't think about it before. I admit that. But now... now? I'm interested."
Hey, Anna! Mike! Maybe you might wanna learn how to be supportive parents. Mr. Heyward can be your teacher.
You're gonna sit here and tell me no one noticed a man getting out of a trunk? I know they have cameras in a carwash now.
"Yeah, I can handle it. I don't really need you, so..."
Tumblr media
Me when I first found out about Pope being a descendent of Tanny:
Tumblr media
I honeslty should've seen it coming.
"I put him through enough already..." Yeah, which is why you should've been honest not hide the fact that you married John B.
"And Pope's giving me the silent treatment for not being in love with him," I'm sorry what? if the roles were reversed you bet your ass a teenage girl would be doing the exact same thing. I think you can be a little compassionate Kie. Dude's been in love with you for a year and you expect him to go on and pretend everything is fine and dandy?
Ward telling Rose, I won't choose between my kids... tells Sarah the same thing but chooses Rafe instead. I'm also going back to the fact that he said, "Rafe knows you're my favorite."
Everyone really underestimates JJ. He's pretty fucking smart for being a complete dumbass 90% of the time.
People who love Rafe, I get the appeal, but I always come back to the way he talked about nature. How everything is always killing in order to survive and he's not wrong but it's the smirk, his tone that tells me he finds some kind of peace in it...
Tumblr media
"Oh, boy. Ward Cameron." You know that judge didn't even sound surprised.
"You think I wanna miss this." Ooof not one of your best moments, JB. Not cool. I think he could've at least kept that comment to himself.
Okay maybe it's just cause me I don't have a dad, never grew up with one but Ward tried to kill John B twice, murdered his dad and Peterkin, those two mercs, and Gavin. He framed John B for murder, and she expects him to feel compassion in that moment?

02.13.24 - Holding it Together
Today is Tuesday.
I have been going to school full time as well as working full time for sometime now. To be more exact, I have been doing it for about 6 weeks because I am currently in my 6th week of this quarter. I was holding it together pretty well, but I think I really need to get my priorities right. I need to be spending more time on my Machine Learning homework than my Algorithms one. My ML assignments are much longer and more involved than my Alg ones, and there are only 5 assignments for ML, so that means I don't have a buffer or anything. There is also no final for the class. I got a B on my first assignment and an A on my second one. I am hoping to get another A on this 3rd assignment, but I am turning it in late which means I automatically get 10% knocked off my grade. I was doing very well going to the gym at 5am, going to work, taking a short nap, and doing my assignments, but this week is just harder. I think I am having a hard time this week because I chose to slack off on Friday AND Sunday, and I didn't work on any assignment. That was a terrible idea. I shouldn't have spent all Sunday doing nothing. Especially because I have a huge learning curve in my classes right now. I had a little mental breakdown today, and poor Taylor caught some of it. I called him to hangout, but then I abruptly hung up on him because I was pissed off. I am pretty sure he is mad at me though because I tried to call back and apology, but he ignored my call. I know he ignore the call because he responded to my apology right away on snapchat. I don't blame him though because I was being rude. I also told him that I would watch Pokemon tiktoks with him, but I couldn't mentally do it. I need to get over feeling bad about it though because I don't owe him anything. I apologized, and he said it was fine. I hate when I do things, and then the feeling of guilt hits me. It's really annoying, and I am sure it was not that big of a deal to him.
I can't wait to be done with school. I just don't want to do it anymore. Everyday day is genuinely so hard, and I am trying so hard to hold it together. It definitely gets harder day by day too. I am also becoming really self-conscious about myself looks wise. I realized recently that I have been extremely harsh on myself when it comes to my looks because I have even thought about getting botox. I have already been insecure about my round/big face, but I have never thought about getting plastic surgery. That's how I know that I have been on Instagram too much. I think I am going to go on an Instagram cleanse for the next month or so because it's really ruining my mental health. It doesn't help that most of my feed is kpop, make up, and working out. All those things involve my looks. I do not think I am ugly per say, but I do wish there were things I could change about myself. I am currently working on things that I can change though, and I am proud of myself. I would be best that I take this week off and focus a little more on school though. I'll go back to working out next week or over the weekend while I am at Hailey's cat sitting. I also need to be more careful about what I eat. I ate a lot today, and i am not feeling so great.
Get it together Paula, you're almost done:
Remind yourself that you can do this. You've been doing it for more than a year.
You only have 2 quarters/4 classes left after this.
You are will always have things you want to change. Focus on things that are in your control.
Taylor is not someone you should harp on. He won't be in your future.
Keep working out consistently and eating properly. This is change that you can control.
Stop spending so much fucking money on useless shit. You don't need anymore Pokémon cards.
You got this. Pull yourself together.
-P I am adding this after because I was reading around last Christmas (2022) time, and the difference in mine and Taylor friendship is crazy. He barely talked to me last Christmas, but we literally spent Christmas together this year. We even opened advent calendars together, and he ignored his friends from like 2 weeks because I was on break from school and in town. Absolutely wild. We don't talk about sleeping as much anymore. Thank god, and I hope it continues this way long enough that it just stops. I did try to stop it on Oct, but it ended up happening again around Dec. There is something about our 3 month quiet periods. We will see around March/April how that goes, ig LOL.

I won’t lie. I absolutely loved Thorfinn as a badass war-demon child. He was obviously very skilled at all his acrobatics and had developed a fighting style that worked for his size and strength. He was so cool.
And because the story and characters in VS are crafted with such maturity and care, I’m willing to go along with it even into this stage of Thorfinn losing that badassery.
But what I’m really missing is the steps between A and B here. Personally, I have trouble accepting how he became such an empty, docile person. I get that he would be deflated after losing his chance at revenge, but I can’t make that whole giant leap to him becoming full-on depressed and traumatized without more on-screen exploration of that development. 
He was always traumatized by the death of his father, which he dealt with in isolation, but he almost never showed remorse or anything for all the killing he did. His trauma stemmed from loss and grief, not horror at himself. So I would have really liked to see that transformation in his psyche where losing Ashkeladd as his motivation for war and violence led to rethinking his whole life and developing that new war-related PTSD and guilt.
I just want to see that section of his story more fleshed out because I just have these questions about how he became a slave, what were his motivations for letting himself be taken as a slave (because obviously no one could have forced him into it, he had to be willing for it to work), how did he decide to become so polite and compliant when he was always so rough and antisocial (rather than just say fuck everything and go isolate in the woods somewhere), what was the exact timeline for all his emotional and psychological development alongside the new life he started to live, and just how exactly did he become a slave when the last place he was at had his uncle and the prince he had been protecting? How did they let that happen? Did he just run away from that place in a daze and then get captured when he was somewhere by himself?
This part of his story just feels so goddamn important, and it got completely skipped over like it’s not that big a deal or like it should be easy to understand how he got to the point we found him at at the start of the second season.
But just because Ashkeladd died and left Thorfinn without the one motivation he had in life doesn’t mean the path he's taken is so natural that it doesn’t need a little more expansion. There are lots of ways his depression could have played out from there, and I want to see all the steps that took him to here. And this whole retrospective view of “my dad said no one is my enemy and so now I want to live without violence” isn’t enough to explain everything.
Because first of all, that ideology? Citations fucking needed. There are lots of people who deserve to be hurt. Just because you killed innocent people and feel guilty about it doesn’t mean everyone is now innocent. It’s all fine and good to want to make a world without war and slavery, obviously, but you can’t just decide no one deserves to be hurt before you reach that ideal world. You haven’t earned the right to make that decision yet, not without some serious philosophical justification and substantiation to your (counterintuitive) claim. I need to be convinced to get on board with this idea, and it feels like the story thinks it’s done the work already with Thors’ heroics and through Thorfinn’s trauma, but I’m not going to let one person’s personal journey dictate an entire world philosophy like that.
I’m willing to let the story try to convince me because I do have a lot of respect for the overall mature way it handles themes and characters (unlike Platinum End for example), but there are a lot of missing pieces for me, if for no other reason than I’m fundamentally resistant to anti-violent philosophies, but also because I just loved the potential Thorfinn had of being a fascination character psychologically, and they just completely jumped over the part that I was excited to see explored: what happens when a person living only for revenge loses that revenge? What happens next?
I love revenge stories so fucking much, and I love seeing different characters decide how to live (or not) once their revenge drive is over, and I’m just really disappointed to have missed out on seeing the most raw scenes of Thorfinn reacting to losing his revenge and fumbling his way through that loss. We jumped to a place where he had already become empty, but I wanted to see the process of him being poured out, where everything flashed before his eyes and he truly questioned everything and all the horrors he had been able to live with because the urge for revenge was so much stronger rose to the surface and he had to find a new defense mechanism to cope with it all.
I want to see all that, not just be expected to assume it all happened in a convincing way off screen.
That was the exact part I was so hyped up for through the whole first season, and for all the time I was waiting for the second.
I feel robbed, and as much as I love VS and still feel emotionally invested in the story, the truth is I’m really disappointed about this and I would find it intolerable in any other less worthy anime.
(On another note, frankly I also need Thorfinn to come out an explain why he’s never seemed to give a single shit about his mom and sister who he left behind. It doesn’t bother me that he never thinks about going home, because it can be very hard to go back to your place of childhood when you’ve gone through something dramatic and become a different person, but he never once seems to reminisce about his mom and sister. He’ll think about his dad at any given opportunity, but the rest of his family? It’s like they never existed, and I just want to understand why.)

Okay, so you know “Justice League meets Batman’s kids, who they’d previously been unaware existed” AUs?
So picture that.....but this time, instead of them just having no knowledge of any of these other Gotham vigilantes at all....the Batkids all migrate to various cities as they get older and become known as their protectors - Dick in Bludhaven, Tim in San Francisco, Cass in Hong Kong, etc....
Meaning they’re all established figures, the Justice League are aware of them as solo local heroes who stick to their cities and so they just don’t interact with them much if at all, or else some are members of team lineups but are particularly vague about their histories or life outside of the team’s adventures....
So the big reveal isn’t that they become aware of all these other Gotham vigilantes all at once....its that some big conflict or whatever requires a huge team up of all available heroes, and in the aftermath, they figure out that like.....despite being known as solo heroes who work alone or loners outside of their team settings, 80% of these heroes all not only seem to already know each other, they seem to be related.
And so naturally they all turn to Batman, who has profiles on every known hero and they thus figure had researched these individuals too and just never mentioned this little detail, and they’re like, “Did you know about this?”
And then Nightwing turns to him too, arms crossed and is like, “Yeah Dad, did you know about this?”
And the infamous Red Hood is all: “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have never met any of these people before in my life. Lives? Whatever.”
And then Red Robin moodily grates out “I have no siblings.” Since he’s nursing a grudge since Dick and Jason broke into his apartment the night before and replaced all his custom Red Robin gear with Darkwing Duck merchandise and his vengeance will be swift and also totally disproportionate because things escalate quickly in this family, that’s true in every universe.
Cass meanwhile has deftly skewered Jason’s lie by walking over to him and brazenly patting down the man with many many guns with no fear whatsoever. He squawks and futilely attempts to bat her hands away as she riffles through his many pockets, but he doesn’t seem shocked, just annoyed. Eventually, she pulls away and triumphantly reveals a box of Hello Kitty themed band-aids.
“So these are yours then? Just for you?” Black Bat asks smugly. Red Hood squints at the box.
“What the fuck? How long have those been in my jacket? Why are those in my jacket? Did you freaking plant them in my jacket just on the offchance you could at some point in the distant future use them at my expense?”
Black Bat frowns, puzzled. “Yes?”
“Oh come on, Dead Hood,” Spoiler says with an exaggerated toss of her head meant to convey she’s rolling her eyes beneath her own mask. She skips her way across the room to Black Bat and then drapes herself languidly all over the smaller woman. Who in turn doesn’t so much as twitch beneath the sudden added mass as Spoiler holds out her hand towards the box of band-aids. 
“One please. I have a boo-boo,” she says with easy familiarity straight into the intimidating cowl of Black Bat. Only then does she deign to finish her train of thought with Red Hood.
“I mean seriously, are you saying you don’t have potential blackmail set-ups, pre-rigged releases of incriminating material, and a random assortment of traps, pratfalls and mortifying scenarios in place for the express purpose of being able to humiliate any and all of your siblings at any given moment, without any need for additional prep time?”
“Is this true, Little Wing?” Nightwing whirls on the larger Red Hood with a faux-scandalized gasp. The founder and leader of the Titans, formerly the Teen Titans, renowned for his stratagems and calm competence when directing squads of supers in the heat of battle while he keeps pace with nothing more than naturally acquired acrobatics and a utility belt that apparently uses the same technology as Wonder Woman’s invisible jet....now appears to be....staggering with the back of his hand pressed to his forehead, moaning about how he felt....faint? 
What is happening right now, several dozen superheroes want to know. Is this a drill? Are they supposed to be checking for signs of a mental ambush from undetected psychic saboteurs? Did they all hit their heads at the exact same time and are now experiencing some kind of shared mass concussion?
Look, that wouldn’t be the weirdest thing to ever happen on the Watchtower. 
“Have I failed you so utterly?” The veteran child hero bemoans with a dramatic twirl - that when contrasted with his stern demeanor of a mere ten minutes ago - makes the fears of telepathic infiltration seem less paranoia and more....concerningly probable. “Did you learn nothing from me? Did you learn nothing from B?”
He stops and jabs a finger up at the sky. “Quick, everyone! What is the very first rule of Living While Batty?”
As if by rote, over a half a dozen voices chime in from all over the room, causing various heroes to jump. Spooked by yet more and more vigilantes joining in some kind of mass recitation like they and they alone have some kind of clue what the hell is going on and everyone else just hadn’t been invited to the party. Which is just rude, honestly. Nobody likes feeling like they weren’t invited to the party. Not even superheroes. 
“If you’re not going to bother preparing for every possible contingency and at least six impossible ones, you might as well just stay in bed.”
Even the Red Hood joins in the Illuminati chant or Cub Scout pledge or demonic ritual or whatever the fuck that just was, though his slumped and exasperated posture gives away every hint of sulkiness his headgear otherwise would have kept safely hidden. He’s surprisingly more...expressive, than most who’d only known of him by reputation had expected him to be. The day continues to yield surprises.
“Of fucking course I do,” he growls out, snatching the box from Black Bat. She doesn’t even fight to hold onto it, just lets it go with a knowing smirk. “I wasn’t surprised by the idea of it, I was just surprised she bothered with such a weak effort. Like yeah whatever, actually those could be mine. I use those all the time at home. So what?”
He aggressively yanks one of the band-aids out of the box, fumbles with the peel-off strips with one hand and he roughly rolls up the sleeve of his jacket with the other. Then just slaps it on his forearm and raises said appendage high, showing it off this way and that. “See?”
“Oh yeah, for sure,” Signal drawls from the other side of the room, nodding his head approvingly. “Totally convincing. Nice job walking that one back, you really showed them.”
Red Hood’s head snaps in his direction with ominous intent. “Watch it, Day-Glo.”
Signal just snorts.
“Yeah, like I’m gonna take constructive criticism on my name and costume from a dude who’s spent the last several years calling himself Red HOOD while running around in a freaking HELMET.”
“Its not meant to be literal, you fucking pedant.”
“So wait, its not literally a helmet? Huh, does it at least protect your head literally, or just like...symbolically? Like if Bane were to clock you across the head, would your concussion just be a metaphor? What’s the treatment protocol for a metaphorical concussion? Fluids, bedrest and a philosophical prescription of two chapters of Chicken Soup for the Soul as needed?”
“Laugh it up, KC and the Sunshine Band,” Red Hood bats back. “You just got yourself disinvited from Thursday night’s poker game.”
Signal just grins and folds his arms over his chest cockily. “Please. You’ve been looking for an excuse to ban me for weeks, cuz you know until you can prove I’m using my ghost vision to cheat, you can’t actually bring suit against me for it in Family Court.”
“That, and also Family Court isn’t a real thing, you toddler. Stop validating Wing-a-ding-ding’s obsession with Shitty TV Nostalgia and just call it that thing where Oracle traps us all in a room until we settle our latest fight without anyone getting stabbed.”
“Yeah, but like, say that five times fast,” Spoiler pipes up. “Its just not practical. Family Court’s way easier.”
“Says the one who’s not even in our fucking family.”
“And yet I grace you all with my sublime presence anyway,” she blows a kiss at him, beatifically unbothered. “You’re welcome.”
The Red Hood scoffs and rounds on his heel, zeroing in on Batwoman in the far corner.
“Hey Auntie B, my siblings are all dead to me and I just helped stop an alien invasion so I deserve nice things like a fun Saturday night. Can you get me into Dad’s fundraiser so I can crash it? He won’t put me back on the list until I promise not to bring any C-4 with me and I won’t promise not to bring any C-4 because he should just trust me that I won’t when I say I’m not gonna and he won’t trust me that I won’t until I admit I shouldn’t have brought any to that sting last month where three tiny little yachts blew up through barely any fault of my own, and I’m just not gonna do that ever because I have convictions and I feel I shouldn’t have to be punished for that. Y’know?”
Batwoman blinks at him. “Kid, I’m not gonna lie to you. You’re my nephew and I love you, but I stopped listening three seconds into all that.”
“Ugh, fine. Can you help me crash Dad’s event tonight so I can teach him a lesson about why he should just trust me not to make a scene so I don’t have to always make a scene to make a point.”
“Tempting as you make that sound,” she says wryly, “I have a strict policy for dealing with you lot and your......everything. I only worry about tolerating one of you at a time, and there’s seven of you, and seven days in the week. You each get your own. You know perfectly well its Robin’s day today. You get me on Tuesday, just like always.”
“Auntie B, we’re not like other families, are we?” Red Robin’s delivery is sarcastically childish and his question clearly rhetorical. Most of his attention is fixated on whatever it is he’s doing with his wrist-mounted computer. 
“No sweetie, we’re all severely fucked in the head and a little bit too comfortable with that.”
“Just checking. Oh hey, Hood, I just emailed you a patch for the hole in your firewall I exploited when replacing all my shit using your accounts just now.”
“You did what?”
“Used your accounts to pay to replace all my stuff that you fucked with last night?” Red Robin says slowly. “Did you not realize that I’ve been sticking within ten feet of you for the past five minutes just so I could clone your devices and do all that while BB and Spoiler kept you distracted? I gotta say, bro, I feel like that’s on you then.”
Red Hood swivels his helmeted head in the direction of the aforementioned two. Black Bat waves. Spoiler shoots him an utterly unrepentant thumbs up.
“You’d side with your ex over me? That’s what its come to?”
“My only allegiance is to chaos,” Spoiler says brightly. Black Bat shrugs.
“Plus he bribes better.”
“Hateful,” Red Hood points at Black Bat, moving on to level the same finger at Spoiler, who curtsies in acknowledgment: “Hateful-er.”
Then the finger rounds the bases to aim judgmentally at Red Robin. “Hateful-est. And that was all Nightwing’s idea anyway, not mine.”
“Oh, I assumed as much,” he says casually. “Your idea of a prank tends to have more of a Carrie vibe. Or be a literal literary reenactment.”
“Its called an homage, 4chan.”
“Whatever, plagiarist. And anyway, I couldn’t go after ‘Wing for payback on this one. He used an Immunity card. If you didn’t want me getting back at you, you should have used one too."
Red Hood looms aggressively. Red Robin ignores willfully. Round and round they go. Superheroes who can survive excessive G-Forces are getting dizzy just watching them have a largely motionless stand-off. That shouldn’t be how that works, but whatever. All the most infamously reclusive and isolated heroes in all hero-dom are apparently part of the same one big reclusive and isolated family of fucked up weirdos and they’re all officially bonkers. Nothing makes sense anymore. Reality broke. Try another stall.
“Okay, but see, in order to have an Immunity card, I would have to participate in one of you losers’ stupid Immunity challenges,” the Red Hood drags out with exaggerated patience. “And I’m just not going to do that, on account of those all being fucking stupid. You see the problem there?”
Red Robin just shrugs. “I don’t know what to tell you, bro. You can have principles or you can have an Immunity card. You can’t have both.”
Meanwhile, on another side of....the same room.....look, its like, an octagonal room, probably. It has a lot of sides. Robin fends off questions from an aggrieved looking Superboy.
“You never told me you had a bajillion brothers and sisters!”
“Yes but I never said I didn’t either.”
Superboy rolls his eyes. “Oh yeah, so I should just assume everyone I meet has a bajillion secret brothers and sisters?”
“Well clearly it would have worked out in your favor in this instance if you had, now wouldn’t it?”
“Assuming of course that you can trust what has been said or implied here today and I am actually related to any of those numbskulls. Which I am not actually admitting to,” Robin tacks on hastily.
Superboy eyes him dubiously. “You joined in the same creepy chant all the others did and then got super self-conscious and looked around to see if anyone had noticed. Which uh. I did.”
“First off, your interpretation of body language is abyssmal. I do not get self-conscious,” Robin says with a delivery that probably could have benefited from being a little less self-conscious. “And second....that proves nothing. I guessed what they were going to say.”
“Word for word,” Superboy says super-skeptically.
“I’m very good at guessing things. You know this.”
“Okay. Guess how much I believe you right now then.”
Robin glares and folds his arms grumpily across his chest. 
“And what was that anyway? Was that like....you guys’ family motto or something like that?”
“Oh no,” Spoiler pipes up. “That’s much shorter.”
Superboy balks at that. “Wait, you guys actually have one of those for real?”
“Yup,” Steph says, counting out the words with her fingers. “He who laughs last....probably works for the Joker. So tranq him just to be safe. See? Only sixteen words. The first rule of Living While Batty is way longer, and what we said was just the abridged version. You should hear the original, before Black Bat put her foot down and refused to memorize it unless sizable edits were made.”
Superboy hovers between her and Robin now, both in mid-air and on the verge of taking Spoiler’s words as an invitation to hear just that. A low growl arises from Robin’s direction.
“Must you?” He asks the older vigilante, with a most put upon expression.
She looks at him pityingly. “Do you actually need me to answer that? Like, we’ve met, right? Hi, I’m Spoiler.”
“Wait, so Robin said that I just never specifically asked him if he had a bajillion brothers and sisters, and that’s why he didn’t tell me, so that means he wouldn’t have just lied and there’s not some code of secrecy that flat out forbids telling other people stuff, right?” Superboy realizes excitedly.
“Yes, excellent direction. Go on,” Spoiler says, steepling her fingers. Robin buries his face in the palm of one hand.
“Soooo, what other stuff could you tell me about Robin’s super top secret family that I wouldn’t think to ask about but that he would tell me about if I knew what questions to ask?”
She claps once, lightly but with emphasis. “Well done. You’ve passed the first barrier. Untold secrets await you behind just a few more.”
“I’ll get you for this,” Robin vows calmly. She waves a hand at him.
“Yeah, yeah. Just make sure you do it before January 1st, remember? You’ve promised retribution like ten times already this year and those don’t roll over, y’know. Rules are rules.”
“Enough!” Thunders a voice then, from the front of the room. Well one of the fronts anyway. Like sides, it has a lot of them, but this is the one where Batman’s standing. All eyes snap to him. Which is kinda just what eyes do when Batman says stuff like that. Its like his superpower, except he doesn’t actually have superpowers, which is what makes it scary. But where the snapping of the eyes (directional) is usually followed by Batman saying something else besides just “hey look at me,” here he pauses in the wake of his own call to attention’s waning reverberations. Uncharacteristically silent.
Not that, y’know, he’s normally Mr. Talkity Talk, but usually his silences feel like he has the words to fill them, he’s just withholding them. This though, this feels more like he doesn’t have any words at all. And he’s as confused by it as any of them, and most everyone else is confused by Batman being confused, and its this whole trickle down economy of confusion and its wrecking havoc on the value of the golden silence standard.
Of course, not everyone present is rendered spellbound with confusion.
“C’mon B,” Nightwing cajoles, leaning forward and practically radiating delight. “I think you know what you have to do now. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Its not likely to come around again.”
Red Hood snickers beneath his helmet and chimes in. “Yeah Pops, go ahead. You do this and you’ll actually have my respect for a whole twenty four hours. No, wait. Sixteen. No! Eight. Yeah, eight. Still a good deal.”
“Carpe diem, B,” Red Robin grins, leaning back as if to enjoy the show.
“Hey! Infringe on my trademark one more time, dude,” Signal throws a faux-glare at the former. Red Robin just quirks an eyebrow.
“And what, you’ll start saying Yum every time you eat a burger? Oh no. I’m hoist by my own petard.”
Signal flips him off with a grin and then redirects his attention back to Batman. “Yeah seriously though B, you kinda gotta do it now. Because if you don’t do it, then you’ll forever be the guy who didn’t do it, and you don’t want to be that guy, do you?”
“Yeah you really don’t want to be that guy,” Spoiler shouts out. “Nobody likes that guy. He’s the worst.”
“Do it, do it,” Black Bat starts chanting beside her, steadily picking up speed and volume. Several others start joining in. Even Robin appears to be slightly anticipatory, albeit trying very hard to hide it.
Batman sighs, and somehow everyone manages to hear it. Stills. Waits for....something? Nobody but them seems to have any clue what, but the air is thick and heavy with portentiousness. Something is about to happen, and all most of the heroes present could say for sure is it was something they never would have in a million years seen coming.
Finally, Batman straightens with the resigned air of a man about to have oh so many regrets. He crosses his arms, shakes his head, and in an absolute deadpan monotone, says:
“You are awful children. You know you’re killing me. You’re killing your father.”

‘photoshopping my boyfriend’
(tiktok prank)
character(s) : bakugou katsuki, todoroki shouto, midoriya izuku (bnha)
PART TWO — PART THREE
legend : [Y/N = your name] they/them pronouns used, quirk not specific
headcanon type : crack, fluff (x reader)
note(s) : inspired by this tiktok— it was too funny to skip this chance of making this post 💀
»»————- ♡ ————-««
Tumblr media
bakugou katsuki
you wanted to do this prank, because you wanted to see if he’d notice even the most subtle of changes to his face
again, it’s a pretty harmless prank— plus, you wouldn’t actually post the edited picture online anyway 💀
it’d be funny to see it
so, you slightly alter the selfie of you and katsuki, by enlarging his forehead ever so slightly— and you’d only alter it more from that moment onwards
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N : “kats, i found this picture in my camera roll, should i post it? you look so good ! (๑>◡<๑)”
and katsuki being well,, himself— responds rather quickly to your message even though he kinda wanted to leave you on read
kats ♡ : “ain’t that your fucking wallpaper 🤨”
Y/N : “nah this is a different one, should i post?”
he leaves you on read for a bit, and it seems to be that he was typing for quite some time
kats ♡ : “abso-fucking-lutely not. i don’t remember looking like that.”
Y/N : “but you look fine! want me to change it a bit?”
kats ♡ : “do whatever 🙄”
and because you’re an absolute menace to your boyfriend, you make his forehead bigger— not to the point that he’d notice though
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N : “how’s that now?”
and then you were left on read 😔 because katsuki was currently on his way to your room and he’s not pleased
“DID YOU PHOTOSHOP MY FOREHEAD?” he slams your door open, and you swore you could’ve heard it crack just a bit
“no??”
“stop fucking lying- i have that exact photo in my gallery, and it looks NOTHING like that atrocious thing”
you burst out laughing at his reaction, and he’s just standing next to your bed like 🧍‍♂️
“i will never take another picture with you again if you—”
“as if i was actually going to post that picture” he wasn’t serious when he said he won’t be taking pictures with you
but at least he’ll sleep well knowing that you won’t post such.. horrendous picture of his massive forehead on the internet for the world to see
but you posted the tiktok anyway and it blew up to katsuki’s distaste
Tumblr media
todoroki shouto
okay okay, so you think that this would be absolutely hilarious— but you just wanted to see if he’d notice if you photoshopped him
but a part of you thinks he wouldn’t, or if he’d just pretend that he didn’t notice— regardless, it would still be funny
so, you select a random selfie of you and shouto (one that you both looked good in) and you ever so slightly edit his forehead
you kind of wanted to edit his scar but for many different reasons, you decided not to
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N 🤍 : “shou 🤩‼️‼️ look at what i found, should i repost this as a throwback? you look so good it’s not even funny”
he replies rather quick, i mean he always does— but he replies after 30 seconds
shou, the lover boy 🤍 : “you mean we. we look good.”
Y/N 🤍 : “oh, we look good 🤠 so?? what do you think? repost or nah?”
shou, the lover boy 🤍 : “sure thing.”
shou, the lover boy 🤍 : “hm, something looks different. i just don’t know what it is. could you add a small filter to it?”
and you think, ‘oh! so he does notice’ which is quite interesting
Y/N 🤍 : “sure ^^”
you edit his forehead even more, the original picture looking a lot more different compared to the edited one but for some reason, it didn’t look unnatural
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N 🤍 : “so, i added a small filter onto it, does that look better?”
he’s seen typing for a bit
shou, the lover boy 🤍 : “hm, no filter it is. i think the unfiltered one is better.”
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N 🤍 : “i removed the filter, does that look better?”
but then you edited his forehead even more 😭 please this was killing you, you were wondering if you didn’t edit the picture enough— you’re just glad you aren’t in the same room as him
shou, the lover boy 🤍 : “perfect. see you tomorrow <3”
you posted the tiktok’s results, and it blows up in less than a day— gaining a lot of views because
a. it’s shouto— a common guest on your tiktoks, b. his ‘obliviousness’ c. because of the way you edited his forehead, and how it just got bigger and bigger 💀
the comments were really funny, and nice to look at “PLEASE IS HE THAT OBLIVIOUS??” “bruhh he definitely knew something 💀” “there’s no way he wasn’t playing along”
turns out, shouto knew you were photoshopping his forehead for shits and giggles— it’s because he has that exact selfie as his wallpaper
he’ll get you back ;)
Tumblr media
midoriya izuku
your boyfriend is insanely observant, so!! you wanted to test if he’d notice even the slightest of changes to a picture
and plus, you think it would be funny to witness
you select one of the better pictures of you and izuku— but most especially, a picture where izuku looked phenomenal
compared to the other two, you edited his freckles— you’re basically going to gradually add more freckles to him
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N 🍀 : “hey zuku! look at what i found deep in my gallery. should i repost this as a throwback? i wanna know your thoughts <3”
your notification makes his heart race faster, so he’s quick to reply
except,, it took a bit longer for him to hit send
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “you look so good <3 but hm.. something looks different ^^; i just can’t put my finger on it..”
Y/N 🍀 : “oh— perhaps it’s the lighting?”
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “maybe it is! could you maybe put a filter on it? i mean,, if you think there should be one! not that the picture needs one ;;”
cute.
you add more freckles to the picture, and added a slight filter to make it less suspicious, and you hit send
[you’ve sent an attachment]
Y/N 🍀 : “there! i only added a slight filter to it, is this okay?”
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “oh no, i look like a kardashian now ^^;; definitely not myself.”
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “i’m not sure what’s different! i mean.. the picture couldn’t have been taken that long ago for me not to remember what i even looked like— omg, what if i did forget 😦”
he sounded so concerned about the slight changes— which is to be expected of him
he was actually freaking out through the screen 💀
so then, you decided to add even more freckles to his cheeks
Y/N 🍀 : “ok ok sooo— i removed the filter, does this look better? lmk <3”
it takes a moment for him to finally respond, and he’s seen going on and off with typing— since the typing bubble kept disappearing and reappearing.
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “Y/N..”
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “is it just me or”
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “do i have more freckles in this picture 😦”
you flop onto the ground in hysterics, laughing at his message and you’re hoping that he wouldn’t hear you laugh this hard
after a few hours, you post the tiktok— and it blows up, gathering a good amount of likes and views
the comments consisted of “the fact that he was he thinking so hard about the picture 💀” “LMAOO WHY CAN I IMAGINE HIS REACTION WHEN HE REALIZED” “nooo the way the typing bubble kept disappearing and reappearing 😭”
your boyfriend sends you a text after the tiktok blows up— basically, he saw the video (somehow 💀)
zuku (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵) : “i’m glad i wasn’t imagining things ^^;; turns out you were just editing more freckles onto the picture 😃 it looked so real!! oh, and i’m coming over to your place, see you!! <3”
basically— having an observant boyfriend like izuku is fun

— hands to myself (nanami kento x reader)
Tumblr media
pov: you miss nanami too much that you can’t keep your hands to yourself
content/warnings: nsfw, voyeurism, masturbation, spanking, multiple orgasms, daddy kink, sugar daddy nanami, unedited fic
inspo: hands to myself by selena gomez
note: i can’t get sugar daddy nanami out of my head my brain goes brr brr PLEASE SEND ME THIRSTY ASKS ABOUT NANAMI 
@unabashednightmarepizza​ and @noritoshiikamo​ asdgjkl here we goooo i guess 
masterlist !
Tumblr media
the penthouse felt so lonely without nanami.
he’s been working so hard, staying overtime and coming home just as you’re already buried in the sheets. nanami would slither in as quietly as he could, not wanting to disturb the peaceful slumber of his baby girl, but what he doesn’t know is that you don’t mind waking up, just to see and feel him before he leaves for work again the next morning.
right before the sun rises, nanami’s already left. in your dazed state, you’re sure you felt him kissing your forehead before the doors close with a soft click, leaving you alone all over again.
you know he doesn’t mean it, you know he doesn’t want to leave you – but nanami is a hero and he has a duty to the people of this world to exorcise curses to bring a safer environment for everyone. truly, you admire him for this, sometimes a little too much that you might even fall in love with the rigid and stoic man who doesn’t smile.
still, you can’t help but to miss him.
ever since you became his baby girl, life has been easy. even though nanami wasn’t around all the time, he made it up by leaving his credit card to you, assuring you that you were free to get what you wanted. out of boredom, you’d go to the upstate and use his car to drive around the hills, arms heavy with shopping bags.
you’re not selfish, of course, you always make sure to bring him a little gift too. whether it came in the form of buying a new necktie for him – which he always wore to work proudly – or donning your body in lacy, white lingerie that has nanami losing control and worshipping your body until you’re screaming his name with a dried throat, you never forget to leave a little something for him.
sometimes you wish you could tell him you don’t really want the money. you’re thankful he’s more than generous to help you pay for college fees in return of you being his sweet baby girl, but you don’t need the Gucci or prada if he’s not going to be around.
you wanted nanami more than anything else, missed him more than anyone else.
your room feels so empty without him. his scent still lingers in your sheets because he’d rather sleep with you than stay in his own room, only using said room for showering and getting ready for work.
a lightbulb shines above your head. throwing your iphone to the side, you run to his room and open the cabinets one by one. nanami was as organized with his surroundings as he was with himself. his closet is an impressive collection of dark blue button-ups, nude slacks, and his iconic nude suit jacket. they’re all of the same brand and size, and you laugh because only nanami would buy the same thing over and over again.
at the end though, your gaze lands on a rare collection of white button ups, neckties neatly rolled and tucked at the glossy marbled drawers in front of the closet. already, you feel your heartbeat picking up as your hands touched the soft cotton material, nose slowly rubbing and burying into his shirt.
it even smells like him.
your movements are swift. previous shirt discarded on the floor, your arms loop inside the sleeves, tying up just until the undersides of your breasts before you pick out your favourite tie for him, a satin black one that always made him look delectable for dinner parties.
nanami rarely wore those, but when he did, he knew you wouldn’t be able to keep your hands to yourself. the last time he brought you with him for a birthday ball of his friend, nanami wore this exact black tie paired with the traditional fitted, three piece suit. you remember how needy you were for him that night, little fists clenched at his dress shirt and nanami lowly scolding you to behave.
but you were so desperate to touch him – how could you not when he was so damn irresistible – that he felt bad for his baby girl. long story short, you and nanami left early for the party, with your pussy bouncing up and down his thick pole while nanami glared at the limousine driver to keep his eyes on the road, large, calloused hands possessively gripping the flesh of your ass.
you missed him so much you might go crazy.
grabbing the nearest bottle of his perfume, you spritz it into the air, leaning forwards so that you’d get his scent all over you. it somehow felt as if you were coating yourself in his name, claiming and branding yourself as his even without him in the vicinity.
that’s how much you wanted him, and you don’t stop rubbing his perfume along the pads of your wrist until you can’t smell yourself anymore. your legs are accentuated by the black suede pumps you strutted around the penthouse with, lips tainted red from the wine he kept in his precious little cellar – which was also a spot in the house you both fucked at during that time nanami wanted to taste you on his lips.
he pushed you next to the glass borders then, spreading your legs open until you’re absolutely bare of him. the memory of nanami burying his warm tongue in you has you rubbing your thighs together, your black lace panties already damp with arousal.
you won’t touch yourself, though. that’s one of the rules nanami placed the moment he agreed to be your sugar daddy: you couldn’t, under any circumstance, touch yourself without his permission.
sighing, you trudged back to his bedroom again and sat your ass on his silver desk, legs swinging below you as you stared out into the night city.
nanami likes his room dark, that even though he’s got a crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, he almost never opens it. only the bright light from the opened closet is what illuminates your silhouette as you watch the skyscrapers twinkle from afar, the people bustling on the streets looking like ants from this height. it was perfect – the night looked so beautiful and the ambience so romantic with soft, classical music playing from the AI speakers – but nanami isn’t here.
he wouldn’t come home early either. you could already tell how stressed he’d be because gojo satoru always makes him work overtime.
for now, you just had to enjoy your own presence, replacing nanami’s heat and love with his perfume and clothes. his shirt is absolutely baggy on you, the ends of it falling on top of your thighs. your breasts nearly swells out from the tight cups of your bra and the fat of your thighs clumped underneath the straps of your stockings.
you’ve sighed for what seems like the hundredth time that day. it sounds selfish, but you wished that nanami would come home early and pay attention to you. surely, gojo satoru would be more than fine handling the curses himself for just today.
unable to help it, your head fell back on the transparent glass windows of his room, fingers snaking under his shirt. instinctively, your legs opened, a breathy sigh falling from your glossy red lips as you slipped a finger in. it’s not as big or as thick as nanami’s, and your hands are way too soft compared to the scraping sensation his calloused fingers gave whenever he fingered your pretty little pussy.
it’s nothing compared to what nanami can make you feel, but it should be enough, for now.
your head falls back as your heel lands on his desk, nearly grazing the precious smooth top of his table. you have a feeling nanami is going to punish you once he sees the slight scrapes of your stiletto against it, but who cares? at this point, you’re willing to pull off the stupidest things just to get his attention, just to get him to fuck you.
“nanami,” you moan around the second finger, your other hand spreading your legs open. you’re so horny that you don’t bother taking your panties off anymore, the material flushed with the slick of your own arousal that it’s heavily damp. “daddy, i miss you,” eyes shut tight, you fondle with the sensitive nub of your clit, pumping yourself slowly as you imagine that it’s nanami making you feel good this time.
you know you’re being a bad girl, that you’re being an absolute brat. not only did you break the rule that you’re not allowed to touch yourself exactly after you convinced yourself you wouldn’t, but you’re leaking right at his desk, heels grazing into the smooth material.
if nanami were to see, he wouldn’t forgive you.
he would break you.
if it was a punishment, then why do you enjoy the idea of it? why are you so enticed, so excited, so eager to have your daddy use you like a fucktoy? your lashes flutter against your cheeks, hips bucking into your cupped palm as your belly begins to tighten. “b-break me, daddy, please, nanami-”
“what do you think you’re doing?”
you freeze.
tentatively, you crack an eye open, swallowing audibly when nanami stands at the edge of his door, his glasses already removed. now that his beautiful blue eyes aren’t obscured by anything, you’re met with the intense heat of his gaze, nearly burning like wild fire. you glance down at your fingers buried in your pussy and gulp, pulling them out with a loud shlick. you were so wet at just the thought of him, so stupid to even want to be punished, but now your spine freezes when nanami struts to your way.
his hand tilts your chin up, forcing you to look at him. “i asked you a question,” his low, baritone voice has you clenching around nothing, throat tight out of nervousness. “i said, what do you think you’re doing?”
“i-i’m sorry, daddy,” you duck your head down, lips red and trembling. “i just missed you so much and i got so horny-”
“so you thought it was okay to touch yourself? even after i’ve made it clear i don’t want you doing that?”
“i’m so sorry-”
nanami doesn’t give you a chance to speak before his lips crash into yours, his tongue effortlessly slipping inside to swipe over your teeth. you gasp in his mouth when his large hands cup your ass and haul your weight off the desk, legs wrapped around his waist. nanami slaps it, making the flesh bounce and gripping it tightly with a firm squeeze. you’re pretty sure you’d turn completely red and marked by the end of this, but you don’t care, fuck, you don’t fucking care – nanami’s here and that’s all you care about.
you kiss him back just as eagerly, arms around his neck as he carries you like you weigh nothing. nanami groans when your teeth nibble on his lips, eager and needy hands unbuttoning his shirt. his hard pecs and abs greet you like a present you couldn’t wait to unwrap, and you’re both breathing hard by the time you pull away.
“are those my clothes?” he snaps the strap of your bra under his shirt, eyes narrowed over the way you look terrifyingly small in his shirt. you nod, breasts rising up and down, tempting him to reach over and squeeze it. your back arches at his touch, his ministrations missed and needed. no, you craved it. he’s been gone too long you’re not sure you could take it anymore, and you hiss when nanami buries his sharp nose in the juncture of your neck, the front of his pants damp and coated with your exposed wet cunt. “and you’re wearing my perfume too.”
“y-yes.”
“tell me, baby,” nanami sets you down on your feet. your legs are a little wobbly from the heels and with desire burning in your stomach. he steadies you by placing a hand under your armpit, and you lean forward to kiss him one more time. nanami tsks and shoves you backwards, cheek sliding across the glass. “why did you go to my room without my permission? why did you touch yourself when i told you not to? do you want to be punished?”
your cheek stings from the impact of your skin hitting the glass, but your mind is too clouded with lust you can’t really focus on his words. wiggling your ass to press against his erection, you beg for him, hands looking for the comfort of his skin.
nanami slaps your ass and hand away to shut you up, and you fall forwards with a muffled cry. “answer me when i ask you a question, baby girl. i’m not always going to be this nice.”
“daddy, i-i just missed you so much, i couldn’t help it.”
“you missed me?” you hear his belt unbuckling behind you, your ass perking up in excitement. fuck, you just wanted him to pound into you already. but nanami’s always too patient, always controlled in everything he does, that you’re laying there shaking with your pussy dripping for him. finally, fucking finally, you feel his cock enter you inch by delicious inch, and you moan at the same time nanami groans at burying himself deep within you. “my stupid silly baby can never keep her hands to herself, huh?”
“no, daddy, i want you too much, i just miss you so bad.”
“you do?” he teases, rolling his hips languidly. his pace is so slow and teasing that you’re whining for him to go faster, but nanami only shakes his head. before you could fathom the way nanami’s eyes darken, he leans forward, hitting deeper than he did before. your moans are so breathy that you start fogging up the glass, and nanami rubs your swollen clit before using his hands to squish your cheeks. he forces you to follow his gaze, voice low and almost growling. “if you miss daddy so much, then show it to them. show them how good i’m making you feel. come on, baby girl, i know you can do it. you’ll do it for me won’t you?”
realization dawns you the moment nanami pushes your body further in the glass, your breasts squished and flattened against the cool surface. “d-daddy,” you gasp, tightening around him once you see that the overtime workers from the office parallel to his penthouse are now witnessing the way nanami rams his cock into you like a wild animal. “they’re, ah, watching.”
“i know, baby, i know,” nanami loosens his necktie around your neck, snatching it and tying it around your wrists instead. “let these people know you’re mine – that you’re my baby girl and no one else’s okay?”
hands bound behind your back and nanami’s thick cock thrusting roughly into you, you’re unable to move or even think straight. you just nod mindlessly as nanami keeps fucking into you, hands gently pressing down your throat. his dick keeps rubbing against your most sensitive spots and you’re shaking underneath him, your arousal heightened when you saw several of the office workers have already pulled out their cocks and stroked it at the sight of you dripping onto nanami’s black marble floors.
nanami doesn’t stop praising on how much you’re a good girl for him. now that his cock is buried within you, he’s already forgotten that you’ve broken his precious rule.
you don’t complain, though. how could you when he has you screaming his name, your makeup and sweat leaving a figure the shape of body plastered on his glass walls? you’re sure his housekeeper is going to be so angry at the both of you for leaving cum stains everywhere, but you and nanami have forgotten all about it.
it seems he misses you just as much because nanami doesn’t stop fucking you until you’re full of his cum, breasts swollen and aching from being pressed into the wall for so long.
an hour passed – maybe two – you’ve lost count from the amount of times nanami has made you cum. your legs are giving out beneath you and your latest lingerie set is broken, comforted only by the promise that he’s going to get you good one. you’re absolutely lost in the pleasure of nanami driving his cock impossible deep into you all the way until morning, body spent and shaking from all the orgasms.
fucked out and whining, nanami litters kisses all over your body to soothe you a little bit, but he doesn’t stop. and the truth is, you don’t want him to, either. legs wrapped around his waist and heels digging into his ass, nanami finally tangles his hands into yours as he pistons his cock in and out of your squelching pussy.
he’s giving you his all, and you can’t keep your hands to yourself no matter how hard you’re trying to, not when nanami is prowling into you as you’re spread underneath him before he goes gentle, almost as if making love to you.
well, you could, but why would you want to?

Bucky wasn’t fond of his birthday this year. He was turning 40 and wasn’t exactly happy about it. Every day leading up to his fortieth birthday, he watched himself in his mirror, watched the grays and whites in his beard and hair multiplying and becoming more visible.
Although she said that she loved how they made him look even sexier, Bucky couldn’t help but feel a bit old. The age gap between them wasn’t an issue, they had discussed it before, but he just couldn’t help himself. Now that he was now 40, he felt self-conscious. He was old while she was young ─ 21, to be exact─ and he had grays in his hair and beard and lines on his face─
“Fuck this,” Bucky grumbled to himself as he frowned at his reflection on the mirror. He knew Steve and Sam were planning something for his birthday, they were never slick about it. He also knew his other friends would be there, too, and maybe his sister. He didn’t want to celebrate his birthday this year, but he had no excuse to use.
“Fuck this, Jesus Christ,” he grunted this time. Bucky walked towards his closet and picked out his usual dark jeans, dark gray henley and a black t-shirt to wear beneath. Just as he put on his jeans and pulled his t-shirt on, he heard a bang coming from his living room. He frowned at first, but then chuckled when he heard her voice: “I’m fine!” Bucky shook his head with a smile on his lips. She was the only thing that was going to make his birthday party tolerable, he knew it.
A minute later, she appeared at his bedroom door with his favorite smile on her face. “Sir!” She exclaimed, making him chuckle. “Today is your birthday! How is it feel to be old?” His mood deflating a little, he shrugged.
“I don’t know,” he said, “My back ache decided to take the day off. Ask me again when it comes back.” She laughed. Crossing the threshold, she threw herself on his arms.
“Happy birthday,” she whispered, her hot breath licking his neck and sending shivers down his spine. “I’m glad you’re getting old healthily.” Bucky snorted. “I don’t know what I’m saying, ignore me, please,” she murmured, a whine hidden behind her words.
“’s alright,” Bucky murmured back. “Thank you, peaches.” Giggling silently, she pulled back and looked at him. Bucky swore that none of the women that he used to be with made him feel this way just by looking at him the way she did: All cared about and loved. A smile took over her face, and she lifted herself on her tiptoes. Her soft lips found his gently. His eyes closing, Bucky held her close to him and let her kiss him.
She moaned into the kiss, arms wrapping around his neck while a hand dove inside his hair. Bucky walked blindly towards the nearest flat surface, which was the wall next to his closet, and caged her between his body and the surface. Pulling back for a breath, Bucky moved his lips down to her neck. He kissed her there so gently all the time because it was her sensitive spot: Always got her gasping and whining, and today was no different. He heard her gasp and swallow a whine when she felt his lips on her neck.
A pull on his hair, Bucky lifted his head and captured her lips again. He swallowed all the moans, whimpers and gasps she let out. She felt so good in his arms, in his space, Bucky wanted to keep her forever and not being judged about it.
“Okay, I take it back,” she breathed when Bucky pulled back. “You’re not a old man, okay.” Bucky smirked.
“Oh, baby,” he said. “A kiss is nothing. You should see what I can do with the rest of my body.” She shuddered in his arms, and Bucky tightened his hold on her body.
“I’m aware of the capabilities that your ‘old man’ body has,” she grumbled. Bucky chuckled and lowered her on the ground. She fixed her clothes and hair, trying not to look like she just made out. When she was done, she lifted her head and kissed Bucky on the cheek. “Happy birthday, again,” she whispered. Bucky smiled. She kissed him on the lips one last time and pulled back. “I gotta go. I sneaked out, I was supposed to be helping Papa.” Bucky nodded.
“Alright,” he said. “I’ll see you tonight.” He frowned when she suddenly looked bashful.
“Yeah, I’ll see you tonight.” She smiled and fled. Bucky continued to frown after her, not understanding what just happened.

If Bucky had to be honest, Sam and Steve didn’t go overboard with his birthday party. It was low-key; there was Sam, Steve, Peggy, Sharon, Clint, Thor and her. Rebecca was supposed to be attending, too, but she had a last minute thing about work. She called him in the morning, and they already scheduled a breakfast date/belated birthday party for Saturday. It was nice. The cake had a small card saying ‘happy b-day gramps’, and there was exactly forty candles which Bucky knew it was Sam’s doing. He rolled his eyes playfully. It didn’t sting that much; he knew his friends were just playing with him because almost all of them were around the same age.
Bucky sighed quietly, breathing in the late night’s crisp air deeply, he closed his eyes for a second. He was happy. He had his family he called two days a week, his friends who were bunch of dumbasses but he loved them anyway.
He also had Y/N.
God, Bucky thought, recalling the memory they had about having a future and a family together. He wanted to tell Sam and Steve, but he was truly afraid of their reaction. At the end, they trusted him with their daughter, they thought she saw him as an uncle not as a lover. When their relationship came out, it was going to be a shitshow, Bucky was sure of it. She was worth every trouble, though.
“Hey,” Bucky jumped lightly when he heard her. He beamed and his lips split into a smile.
“Hi,” Bucky said, silently inviting her to be close to him. She inched closer, almost snuggling up at him.
“How did you find your party so far?” She asked, nudging him a bit. Bucky shrugged. He liked it. It was fun and didn’t actually feel like a birthday party; it was more like a comeback together party.
“It was nice,” he ended up saying. “I had fun.” She hummed. “The candles were a nice touch,” he added and got a small laugh out of her.
“Yeah, they were my idea,” she admitted. “Papa loved it, though.” Bucky chuckled.
“Shoulda known,” he murmured. She smiled and snuggled against his arm. It took almost all of his will power to not pull her into his arms and cuddle her right here. He knew he couldn’t do it, not when all of his friends were around let alone her parents.
“Can I come by your place tonight?” She asked. “I wanna give you my gift.” Bucky nodded absently.
“You didn’t have to buy me anything, honey, you know that right?” Bucky said, his voice gentle and low. She nodded and shrugged at the same time. “You can also give me your gift now, too, if you want.” She ducked her head down.
“It’s not that kind of gift, Sir,” she whispered, causing Bucky’s eyes widen. “I prefer to give it to you when we are alone.” Bucky licked his lips, swallowing audibly.
“Alright,” he muttered. “How about 1AM?”
“That’s fine,” she agreed. She kissed his cheek before pulling back, Bucky immediately missed her warmth next to him. “I’ll see you then, Sir,” she said. Bucky nodded.
He felt like he was in for something and he couldn’t wait to figure out what it was.
──
Bucky returned home quarter to midnight, claiming that he was tired and stuffed full with sugar and its energy was finally wearing off. The others agreed; it was still a week-day at the end and most of his friends were working still.
He took a shower, trying to calm down and kill some time until 1AM. He was eager to see her, to have her company and enjoy it freely. It was hard enough to stop himself kissing her the way he wanted to after he blew his candles off, so some alone would do them good, Bucky knew it.
The more his will power was being tested, the more he thought about coming out clean to Sam and Steve. He didn’t want to hide their relationship. He wanted to take her out on dates without the fear of getting seen by some people Sam or Steve might know. He wanted to hold her hand, cuddle her on the couch or kiss her wherever and whenever he wanted to. He needed to discuss this with her first, though.
Mind full of ideas about how to tell them, Bucky stepped out of the shower and moved onto his kitchen after putting on only his sweatpants (no boxers, either, because they were gonna come off anyway). It was just half past midnight, and he had half an hour to spend by himself until she came. Bucky sighed as he grabbed a glass and filled it with water. He just stood in his dark kitchen, saved from the street lights sizzling inside through the window above the sink, sipping his water in silence.
He must have zoned out because he almost jumped out of his skin when he heard the shy knock on his door. Setting down his glass, Bucky ran towards the door and opened it.
“Hi,” she breathed, quickly stepping inside and letting Bucky close the door behind her. She had casual clothes on, sweatpants and an oversize sweatshirt, but she took his breath away anyway.
“Hi, baby,” Bucky whispered and watched her getting shy delightfully. When he stepped closer to kiss her, she stepped back.
“Um,” she started, “I-I prefer─ with your gift, uh.” Stammering over her words, she played with her fingers. “Give me five minutes, and then come to the bedroom okay?” Bucky opened his mouth protest, but she was quick to shut him up. “Please, Sir?” Exhaling defeatedly, Bucky nodded.
“Alright,” he said, and she disappeared. The curiosity was eating him alive, but he wasn’t about to go and ruin this thing for her. If she wanted to give him a private gift, then she was going to give it to him on her own terms.
Walking back to his kitchen, Bucky fiddled with his half-full glass, playing with the water and sipping it sometimes.
He never knew that five minutes could feel like five centuries.
After his time was up, Bucky walked towards his bedroom, his heart beating faster with each step. The door was ajar. The major lights were off, but she chose to turn on the ones on the sides of his bed, they were dimmed. It gave the room a warmer vibe. His curtains were drawn, and Bucky could pick out the clothes she was wearing when she stepped inside his house. He moved his eyes on his bed, feeling his lungs stopped working, Bucky froze. 
She was in the middle of his bed, sitting on knees. She had red lingerie set on her; the lace design bra was hugging her breasts nicely, the garter belt was around her waist and was attached to the thigh stockings and the matching underwear was carrying the same lace design with the bra. She looked so damn beautiful, Bucky didn’t know how to function.
“Holy shit,” he breathed as he took in the sight before him. “Happy fucking birthday to me, indeed.” She ducked her head down, shy and feeling a little bit self-conscious about her body. Bucky wasn’t going to have that. Not when she looked like a fucking goddess before him. He leaned forward, not getting on the bed, and grabbed her chin gently. Lifting it up, he found her eyes and looked right into them. “You look so beautiful,” he whispered. “I cannot believe you chose me, and you’re givin’ yourself to me as a gift.” She smiled. It was her shy and adorable one, Bucky loved it. “Peaches,” Bucky whispered once more. “You’re gonna give me a heart attack one day.” She chuckled.
“You promised me not to die on me until I’m right behind you, Barnes,” she whispered back, smiling widely. Bucky let out a soft chuckle and fully leaned into kiss her.
The second their lips touched, both of them moaned in relief. It wasn’t the first kiss they had shared that day, but this one was full of promises and things to come in the next few hours. So, Bucky half-climbed on the bed, cradled her face in his hands and kissed her the way he wanted to since the beginning of his party.
Her lips were so soft against his, caressing his slightly chapped ones so nicely, Bucky felt his heart flutter. She vaguely tasted like peaches, and Bucky pulled back just a tad to huff a laugh.
“You taste like peaches,” he whispered. She giggled.
“Yeah, I restocked my lip balm,” she answered and pulled him back into the kiss. Bucky groaned this time. Fully climbing on the bed, leaning over to make her lay on her back, Bucky settled between her legs. The kiss they were sharing went from soft to passionate quickly. Bucky’s hands were traveling all over her body as he tilted his face from side to side so that he could deepen the kiss as he wished.
“God, honey,” Bucky groaned as he lowered his lips to her neck. Kissing and sucking the soft skin there, Bucky rubbed his stubble all over her collarbones. He was about to move south, put his lips on her stomach and maybe give her an appropriate kiss on some place he knew so well, but she pushed him back.  
“My gift, remember?” She said when she saw the confused look on his face. “Lingerie was just a side gift.” Bucky raised his brows as he pulled back a bit more to give her space. She smiled and flipped on her stomach. Her knees drawn up, hands flat on the sides of her head and her face plastered on his pillow, she wiggled her ass.
Her underwear was fucking backless.
“Motherfuck─” Bucky hissed. “What the fuck. Oh my God, peaches, what─” His hands were moving before he could process, grabbing two handful of flesh, Bucky squeezed them. She whimpered. Bucky pulled back one hand and brought it back harshly, slapping her soft flesh, making it burn.
“Oh, fuck,” she whispered as she bit her lip.
“What the fuck─ is this─” Bucky’s eyes zeroed in on the plug nestled between her cheeks. It had a heart shaped base, red jewel adorning it. It looked so pretty, Bucky wanted to leave it just like that, but he also wanted to play with so damn bad. “Sweetheart. Are you sure?”
“Mmhm,” she hummed. ���Wan’ you to do it, please, Sir?” She looked at him over her shoulder.
“Ah, fuck,” Bucky whispered to himself. She always begged him so pretty, never left a chance to say ‘no’, and this time wasn’t different. “Alright, baby,” Bucky said. His fingers pressing on the plug, pushing it a bit deeper. She moaned. She lifted her ass even more up in the air, and Bucky felt like he was dreaming.
Even if he was, this was the best dream he ever had, he was fucking sure of it.
Grumbling meaningless things to himself, Bucky grabbed the base of the cute plug. He could see how wet her pussy was, could see it glistening and wetting her inner thighs, and he honestly didn’t know if he wanted her pussy or her ass first.
“How long can you stay?” He asked, voice low. She sighed happily.
“’til seven,” she answered. She was half-slurring. Bucky hummed, knowing that he had a long time ahead of him to play with her properly, he got off the bed to take off his sweatpants. Sliding a finger under the garter belt, Bucky pulled and released it, making it slap her skin. Bucky watched her ass jiggle deliciously as she gasped lightly. He pressed kisses all the way up to her spine and reached into his drawer to pull out condoms. “Mm, no,” she said, “Got an IUD.”
“I’m loving you even more every second,” Bucky said as he dropped the condom back into the drawer, pulling an amused chuckle out of her. Instead of condoms, Bucky pulled out his lube and put it someplace easy to reach. “I’m gonna tell you what I’m gonna do to you, alright, baby?” She nodded. Placing a kiss on her nape, Bucky took a hold of her hair, pulling it a little.
“First,” he started, “I’m gonna kiss anywhere I want.” Doing as he said; he kissed her neck, her jaw, shoulder blades, spine and her sides. Then, he moved up to kiss her on the lips filthily. This kiss was all about spit and passion and owning, she fucking loved it.
“Then, I’m gonna get you naked,” he whispered. His fingers were quick to find the clip of her bra and undoing it. Sliding the straps of her shoulders slowly, Bucky helped take the bra off. “But I’m gonna keep these,” he said, slapping her ass with one hand while the other one cupped her pussy from the front. She moaned loudly. “The backside of this underwear…” Bucky murmured. “The way your ass looks so damn beautiful in it…” Bucky moved down to bite her ass cheek lightly, making her yelp. “I’m gonna fuck you in it, peaches.”
Dragging one finger all the way from her clit to her plug, Bucky hummed. “I’mma fuck this little thing, first,” he said, inserting two of his fingers into your pussy. “It looks too wet and cute for me to not touch it, y’know,” he added. “But I was thinking maybe I would…” He trailed off as he leaned forward and just licked a fat line up to her plug. She shuddered under his tongue.
“Anything,” she sobbed into his pillow. “Anything you want, Sir, take it!” Chuckling darkly, Bucky did exactly that.
He trailed his tongue up and down, collecting all of her juices that were licking out constantly, licking her inner thighs clean, Bucky pushed his tongue inside of her. She whimpered and wiggled. Bucky was quick to give her a slap on her ass; a warning for her to stay still. She meekly apologized and stopped moving. Bucky slurped, his tongue dove deeper and curved just right. She groaned long and loud, Bucky was so glad that he wasn’t living at an apartment or something.
He pulled back. He was way too impatient for eating her out properly. Grabbing a hold of his cock, he dragged it up and down for a couple times. When he was sure that his dick was covered with her wetness, he slowly inched inside of her.
She gasped, her breath getting stuck on her throat as she fisted the sheets and arched her back. As Bucky slid deeper into her, he felt like was he could explode anytime. She was so tight, so wet and so warm around him, it was like sinking deep into silk sheets in a warm night… It felt so damn good.
“Fuck, Y/N,” Bucky moaned. “You’re tighter than a virgin, I fucking swear,” he grumbled as he leaned forward to cage her body under his. When his hips were flush against her, he stopped for a second. He didn’t want to come too early, but he had been Horny as hell ever since he saw that little plug nestled in its place.
This one was going to be a quick, take-the-edge-off kind of one.
“I’m not gonna last,” Bucky whispered and felt her nod. She was close already, Bucky could feel her walls fluttering around him. His eyes rolled backwards a little when he started to move his hips. Her tight as fuck heat was wrapped around him so damn nicely, Bucky was a little surprised that he hadn’t come as soon as he entered her.
His slow pace didn’t take too long to turn into a desperate, fast and hard one. His hips were slapping against hers, their sweaty skin making obscene sounds echoing in his bedroom. He was so close, so horny, that it really didn’t take him too long to feel his balls tighten. Bucky buried a groan into her neck. His hips were moving on a punishing pace. His hard cock was driving in and out of her pussy with obscene squelching sounds. All those sounds and her moaning and whimpering beneath him were getting to his head real fast. Bucky gasped.
“Sir─” She choked on a breath and gasped just like him. “’m so fuckin’ close, Sir, please!” Her legs were shaking, her chest was heaving and Bucky could feel the flutter of her walls increasing and becoming more intense with each thrust of his.
“God, honey, me too,” he moaned. His pace was halting, he knew he was about to come. Groaning, Bucky slipped his fingers on her front and found her clit. She screamed. “Shit!” Bucky cursed as she came unexpectedly. Her knees buckled with the intensity of her orgasm and she collapsed on the bed with Bucky’s cock still hard and still inside of her. Bucky cursed again, taking a hold of her knees, he spread her legs to her sides. They were quivering in his hands, and he knew she was sensitive, but he was right fucking there. Lying fully on top her, Bucky started to move his hips again. It was a filthy and only focused on chasing his orgasm kind of pace, this time.
“Oh, fuck, Sir!” She exclaimed, eyes widening. Bucky was in deep. He was in so deep, her walls were so tight─
“Shit,” Bucky cursed. “Fuck, oh, God, ah, fuuck─!” The delirious movements of his hips stopped. His balls tightened, cock twitched in her and he came. Eyes rolling backwards, Bucky groaned loud and long. His taut muscles going lax, his hot breath licking her over-heated body and her tightness was still hugging his poor cock so nicely.
“God, Bucky, what the fuck,” she panted. Bucky hummed. He rubbed his stubble-covered jaw on her shoulder affectionately. Easing off of her, Bucky dropped himself next to her and pulled her into his arms to cuddle. “My legs won’t stop quiver.”
Bucky snorted. “You’re welcome,” he grumbled. She rolled her eyes but stayed quiet, burrowing herself deeper into her lover’s arms. Their eyes were closing, they were tired and much needed orgasm had loosened up their tensed muscles. “Round two in an hour,” Bucky slurred. “Gonna play with you.”
She just hummed and closed her eyes.
A little energy nap would do them good, she knew it.

Masterlist
Tumblr media
You weren’t his girlfriend.
He knew you weren’t his girlfriend. In fact, it was entirely his fault that you weren’t his girlfriend.
And yet, he saw you leaning towards Bucky every time he closed his eyes.
He had no right to get mad about what you did with Bucky. He knew he had broken up with you, and that meant you could do whatever you wanted. But no matter how many times he told himself that, he still felt a searing hot jealousy when he thought of it.
Despite his jealousy about the Bucky situation, Peter was still determined to get you back. He knew he messed up by breaking up with you, and now he had to fix things.
When he saw you on Monday morning at your locker, he put his plan in getting you back into motion.
“Hey.” Peter greeted you with a shy smile. You stayed silent, which is what he feared would happen.
“Are you still giving me the silent treatment?” Peter asked you.
“Are you still giving me the silent treatment.” You mimicked his voice while moving your hand like a puppet.
“Okay. That’s good.” Peter nodded. “We’re making progress.”
You glared at him before shutting your locker and walked away.
“Y/n.” Peter whined and followed you. “Don’t walk away.”
He was able to catch up to you before you went into your next class. He didn’t want to touch you, so he stood in front of you to stop you.
“You know you’re gonna have to talk to me at some point, right?” He asked. “Our lockers are right next to each other and we have multiple classes together. And summer is coming. These next few weeks are the last we’ll have together. Don’t you want to hug me once you cross the stage at graduation? Or do you want to spend these next few weeks pretending the longest relationship you ever had never happened?”
You stayed silent, knowing Peter was right. You didn’t want to leave for college knowing the two of you were enemies again.
“Please.” Peter said quietly. “You can’t just act like I’m not here.”
You looked at him for a long time, sparking hope inside him that you were going to forgive him. Finally, you cracked a smile and shook your head at him.
“Watch me.” You said before bumping his shoulder to move past him. Peter felt his heart break all over again as your footsteps sounded further and further away.
~
The next morning, Peter was back at it again with trying to talk to you. He saw you at your locker and immediately went to his.
“Good morning.” Peter smiled at you, but got no answer.
“Please, Y/n. It’s been weeks.” He frowned. “And I’m not particularly thrilled with you right now either but we need to talk.”
You wondered why he was mad at you, but you didn’t say anything.
“I fucked up.” He admitted. “I shouldn’t have broken up with you like that.”
You shut your locker and looked at him for a moment. He fought the urge to take your books from you the way he used to and act like everything was fine.
“You know how I said you’re right about once a month?” You asked him, reminding Peter of when you were first trying out the relationship.
“Yeah?” He said hopefully.
“You just hit your quota for the month.” You patted his chest and walked away from him. Peter let out a huff and walked to his first class, which of course, he had with you.
“Good morning, class.” The teacher greeted as you took your seats. “Since summer is coming, I’ve decided to give you a final project instead of a final. I’ll be picking your partners again.”
Your heart stopped for a moment when you heard the announcement. The first time she assigned partners, you ended up with a boyfriend. You could only imagine what would happen this time. Peter shifted in his seat behind you, telling you he was thinking the exact same thing.
Your teacher began to list off the partners and your anxiety built every time your name wasn’t called. The number of available students that weren’t Peter was getting lower and lower.
“Ned, Eugene, you’ll be working together.” She read off her list. You shut your eyes and prayed that you and Peter wouldn’t be matched.
“Oh no.” Ned gulped and looked at Flash.
“Oh yes.” Flash winked at Ned.
“Peter, Y/n, you’ll be working together again.” Your teacher read, knocking the wind right out of you. Peter smiled a little, happy that he’d have an excuse to talk to you.
You, on the other hand, were less than pleased. Your hand immediately shot up and you spoke before being called on.
“Can I please have a different partner?” You asked. Peter let out a sigh and rolled his eyes up to the ceiling. The class, who had just gotten used to the fact that you and Peter were a couple, looked at each other in confusion.
“Why?” The teacher asked. “I thought you two had worked out your differences?”
“I thought so too.” You said sweetly. “But since my current partner has proven to be unreliable and a major A-hole, I don’t think I can trust him.”
Peter’s jaw dropped, feeling that dormant feeling of competition with you returning. If you were going to act like that, he was too.
“I also want a new partner,” Peter said as he raised his hand. “Apparently my current partner ran around to others partners when our project ended.”
“What the hell are you talking about?” You asked as you whipped around in your seat.
“Y/n. Language.” The teacher reprimanded you.
“I’m sorry.” You apologized. “I just don’t think this partner is right for me. I’d rather be on my own.”
Peter let out a humorless laugh when you used the very words he said to break up with you.
“Right. Like you were on your own in the kitchen the other night?” He shot back.
“What?” You whipped around again. “What are you talking about?”
“You know exactly what I’m talking about.” Peter hissed.
“No, dingus, I don’t.” You taunted. “That’s why I’m asking.”
“I’m talking about you filling yourself up with fossil fuel the second we break up”. Peter snapped.
“Fossil fuel?” You asked. Your eyes widened when you realized he meant Bucky. “Oh my God. You watched the security tapes? Are you stalking me?”
“I wouldn’t have to if you were mature enough to answer my calls.” Peter shot back.
“If you two are so inclined to have this conversation, you can continue it outside of my class.” The teacher cut in. You suddenly remembered that you were in class and had an audience watching your fight.
“Fine. I’ll leave.” Peter said as he picked up his backpack.
“Yeah.” You laughed. “He’s good at that.”
“You’re both leaving.” The teacher said. “Now.”
You grabbed your backpack and marched out of the classroom with Peter close behind him. You never turned to look at him, but you could hear his heavy footsteps behind you.
“We need to talk.” Peter called after you.
“I don’t want to talk to you.” You grumbled.
“Then how are we supposed to work together?” Peter asked, stopping in his tracks. You stopped too and whipped around to see him.
“We’ll do it on Einstein’s photoelectric effect model.” You stated. “You can do the research and I’ll write the paper. We won’t have to see each other anymore than we have to.”
“But I want to see you.” Peter said quietly.
“Oh, you do?” You folded your arms. “Is that why you broke up with me?”
“I didn’t think it would be like this.” Peter sighed. “I knew you’d be mad, but you’re acting like I don’t even exist. I know I broke your heart, and I’m really sorry about that, but we have a lot of history, Y/n. You can’t just pretend I’m not here.”
“Yes, I can.” You shrugged. “It’s easier when you don’t talk to me, though.”
Peter folded his arms as well, staring at you with fuming anger as he thought of what to say. To him, you were being unreasonably and immature. He knew you were upset, but he couldn’t fix things if you didn’t give him a chance to.
“Did you sleep with Bucky?” He blurted. It wasn’t the way he wanted to ask you, but he was at a loss for any other words.
“Oh my God.” You groaned and started walking again. “We are absolutely not having this conversation.”
“Could you please stop walking away?” Peter’s asked as he followed you. “I’m trying to talk to you.”
“I don’t care.” You said as you sped up. “I don’t want to talk to you.”
“Y/n.” Peter whined and began to jog to catch up. “Since when did you walk this fast?”
“Fuck off, Peter.” You called back.
“Let me talk to you.” He ran and stood in front of you again. “What were you doing with Bucky?”
“None of your business. You’re not my boyfriend, remember?” You raised your voice. “You forfeited any right to have an opinion on my life when you broke up with me and couldn’t be bothered to give me a reason why. Do you honestly think you’re allowed to be mad about Bucky? Because you’re not. I moved on, Peter. You should too.”
You tried to move past him but he blocked you.
“But with him?” He asked sadly. “You knew I was insecure about him.”
“And you knew I needed communication in a relationship.” You shot back. “And yet, we ended up on completely different pages. I don’t like being caught off guard, Peter. You knew you were gonna break up with me at lunch, didn’t you?”
“Yeah. I did.” He admitted.
“That’s what I thought.” You nodded. “But instead of talking to me then, you lied to me and told me everything was fine. You’re such a dick. I can’t believe I ever loved you.”
Your words cut into Peter like a dagger. He physically stumbled back from you as your words sunk in. His eyes fell to the ground and for a moment, you felt guilty. You almost reached out and pulled him into a hug, craving his touch after three weeks without it. Instead, you shifted your backpack on your shoulder as you fought the urge to forgive him.
“Email me your research by next week.” You said before you thought it through. “And do me a favor?”
“Yeah. Anything.” Peter nodded hopefully.
“Don’t talk to me.” You smiled tightly. “Thanks.”
You turned and walked away from Peter, tears falling from your eyes the second he couldn’t see you anymore.
When his efforts to talk to you in school failed, Peter went to plan b. He went to your house right after school and knocked on your door, impatiently waiting for you to open up. Soon enough, he heard the door click and was met with your unimpressed gaze.
“Oh my God.” You groaned when you saw who it was. “You can’t just show up here.”
“And you can’t open the door if you didn’t look through the peephole first.” Peter shrugged. “What if I had a gun?”
“Do you?” You asked sarcastically.
“No.” He answered. “But you wouldn’t know that because you didn’t look through the-“
“What do you want?” You cut him off. Peter shut his mouth and let out a sigh. He knew you won’t any excuses, so he got right to it.
“I was lying.”
“Oh, great.” You smiled sarcastically and tried to close your door.
“I never fell out of love.” He continued as he held your door open. “My feelings never changed. I love you just as much now as I always have. I promise.”
You took your hand off your door when you heard this. This information changed everything for you but left you even more confused than before.
“Then why did you break up with me?” You asked quietly.
“I couldn’t sleep the night you came to my apartment after that man attacked you.” Peter began. “Or the night before. I couldn’t stop thinking that being with me meant you’d never be safe again. I broke up with you to prevent people going after you for being my girlfriend.”
“That’s ridiculous.” You scoffed. “I can protect myself.”
“That’s exactly what Ned said you would say.” Peter realized.
“So you talked to Ned about it and still broke up with me?”
“I wasn’t thinking straight.” Peter shook his head. “I just needed to know you were safe.”
“Well, I think that’s stupid.” You said simply. “And slightly narcissistic to think people care about Spiderman enough to go after his girlfriend. It’s not like you’re Iron Man or anything.”
“Are you kidding me? How is that-“ Peter cut himself off when he noticed the slight smile on your face.
“You’re teasing me.” He realized.
“Sorry.” You said unapologetically. “Habit.”
“It’s okay. I deserved that.”
You nodded in agreement and pursed your lips. Peter knew you well enough to know when you were trying to come to terms with something. He could only hope the fact that you hadn’t shut the door yet meant he was forgiven.
“Whats wrong?” He asked you.
“I’m angry that you broke up with me and lied about why.” You told him.
“I know.”
“But I’m less angry because I would have done the exact same thing.” You continued, making Peter lit up with newfound hope.
“You would have?” He asked as his lips twitched into a smile.
“You’re Spiderman. And I love that. But I love Peter Parker more.” You told him. “And if the roles were reversed, I would’ve done everything in my power to keep you safe. I’d probably do something more than what you did, but that’s just because I’m a better person than you.”
Peter laughed at your joke, missing your dry sense of humor after three weeks of silence.
“You’re not that good of a person. You fucked my coworker.” He reminded you.
“I tried to fuck your coworker.” You corrected. “But I failed so I’m basically a saint.”
“You failed?” Peter lit up. “You didn’t sleep with Bucky?”
“No.” You admitted. “He turned me down.”
Peter’s cheeks puffed up at his tried his hardest to fight a smile.
“Don’t laugh.” You pointed a finger at him.
“I’m sorry.” He burst into laughter. “But you were rejected by a terrorist. That’s so embarrassing.”
“Shut up.” You smacked his arm. “He didn’t reject me. He was being a gentleman.”
“He’s also a hundred years old, you grandpa fucker.” Peter mumbled.
“Leave me alone.” You whined. “I’m still mad at you.”
“I know.” Peter’s laughter died down. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you how I was really feeling. I should’ve communicated better. I know how important that is to you.”
“And I’m sorry I told my friends you had a micropenis.” You mumbled.
“That’s okay.” He nodded. “I deserved that.”
“And that I had to fake it every time.” You continued.
“Okay.” He liked that one a little less.
“And that you’re on steroids.” You mumbled.
“You’re pushing it.”
“Sorry.” You chuckled, and he couldn’t help but smile back.
“I’m sorry too. And I meant everything I said. I never stopped loving you.” Peter told you. “Did you stop loving me?”
“I tried to.” You admitted. “But even when I hated you, I always loved you more.”
“So are we okay?” Peter hoped. Your smile dropped suddenly, and Peter’s heart went with it.
“No, Peter.” You said quietly. “I don’t think we are.”
“Why not?”
“How do I know this isn’t gonna happen again? It’s a valid concern, to think that people will go after me because of you.” You told him. “How do I know you won’t break up with me every time you think I’m in danger?
“I won’t do that.” Peter promised you.
“You just did.” You reminded him. “What makes you think you won’t do it again?”
Peter grimaced, knowing his answer was not what you were looking to hear.
“I hate to say this, but I don’t know.” He confessed. “I just think I won’t.”
“Well I don’t know if I can be in a relationship with someone who “just thinks” he won’t break up with me.” You said as you folded your arms.
“I think you should.” Peter pouted. “I think it would be fun.”
“Or how about this? Maybe I agree with you.” You shrugged. “Maybe I don’t want to date you anymore because I don’t want to be in danger.”
“What?” Peter sputtered. “Since when do you ever agree with me?”
“Since now.” You decided.
“Then we’ll make a compromise.” Peter suggested. “We just won’t be seen together while I’m in the suit. And I’ll get Mr. Stark to make you some travel sizes weapons so you can protect yourself. And he can put a tracker on you like he has a tracker on me. And we can figure out-“
“Hm.” You cut Peter off and took your time looking him up and down.
“What’s wrong?” He panicked. “Is that not enough?”
“I’ve just decided that I don’t like you anymore.” You said simply. Peter let out a sigh of relief when he realized you were joking.
“Don’t even start.” He warned.
“I can’t be with you.” You shrugged. “I’ve fallen in love with Bucky. Its the criminal record. I just can’t help myself.”
“Yes you can”. Peter insisted.
“No. His thunder thighs are calling me.” You tried to shut the door again. “I can hear them now.”
You stepped back into your apartment, and Peter took a step in. He cupped your face in his hands and spun you around, pinning you against your front door.
“If you want to get rid of me, you’re gonna have to try harder than that.” He mumbled as he brushed your bottom lip with his thumb.
“Well I do love a challenge.” You smiled under his thumb. “I bet I could-“
Peter didn’t let you finish as he pressed his body into yours and shut you up with a kiss.
“You talk too much.” He mumbled against your lips before going in for another kiss. You gripped the lapels of his flannel to pull him closer, but pushed him away suddenly with your eyebrows furrowed.
“Fuck.” You exclaimed with an angry huff.
“What’s wrong?” Peter worried as he took his hands off of you.
“I just remembered we have another fucking project to do.” You grumbled.
“That’s what you’re thinking about right now?” He laughed in disbelief. “Our school project?”
“You’re laughing because you weren’t the one who did most of the work last time.” You pointed out.
“Can you please stop talking so I can kiss you?” Peter whined. “We can worry about that later.”
“But we have to at least start-“ Your sentence was once again cut off by Peter’s lips, and this time, you were glad he shut you up. You were finally back together and you had deeply missed his touch.
The project could wait.

An Accidental Kiss | Lewis Hamilton
Tumblr media
Fandom: Formula one Warning: Slight angst maybe Pairing: Lewis Hamilton x neutral!reader Summary: A stressed Lewis accidently kisses his best friend before he leaves for a race. 
A/N: I came up with this idea before going to bed and I thought it fitted for Lewis, enjoy! 
You hurried over to Lewis’ house as fast as the traffic let you. You knew he would be stressed out, which he always was before he left to go to the airport. You were his go-to dog sitter because a, he was your best friend and he trusted you with his dogs, and b, you loved them as much as he did. But also you could say no to him as you maybe had a crush on him since forever, but you weren’t telling him that any time soon. You pulled up by his house and hopped out of the car to hurry up the front door. Knocking gently but the dogs still heard you and they started barking at the door. Lewis opened the door with a frantic look on his face, but was relieved when he realized that it was you.
“Hey, thank you so much again for looking after Roscoe and Coco this weekend. I owe you big time.”
He pulled you in for a hug and you could feel how your body was betraying you over his action. Melting into the hug but quickly came to your senses and broke off the hug.
“No problem at all.” you said and walked into the hallway. Lewis had his luggage all over the living room and was pacing back and forth trying to remember what he was missing.
“Have you packed your passport?” you asked and Lewis sprinted up to the second floor. The two dogs looked at you happily with their tails going back and forth. 
“I’m going to miss him just as much as you guys will.” you said and bent down to pat them. Lewis came downstairs again mumbling something like I knew I was missing something important. A taxi pulled up on the sidewalk.
“Your ride is here.” you said and Lewis grabbed his keys, bags and jacket. Before he left, without thinking about it, he kissed you on the lips and said his goodbye’s. You couldn’t form sentences after he left and just stood frozen on the exact same spot as when he left.
He kissed you. HE FREAKING KISSED YOU! 
Your mind was racing and trying it’s best to comprehend what just happened and also to find a logical explanation to it. But nothing made sense to you.
Lewis sat in the taxi and when he finally had calmed down his mind reminded him of what he had done. He had kissed you. His eyes widened by this realization. 
Oh no, he thought. Fuck, what have I done? 
He pressed his hands against his face and he felt like he wanted to scream, but the taxi driver would most likely wonder if he was alright.
I’ve fuck this up completely, he thought. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, he had had a crush on you for a while, but he didn’t want to do anything about it because he was sure that you didn’t feel the same. He took out his phone debating whether he should call you and apologize but his hands were just shaking by the thought of it. 
The whole weekend Lewis tried his best to ignore what he had done and focus on the race, but in the back of his head he knew he had to face you sooner or later. The race went well, as usual, he finished P1 and he was so happy. His phone vibrated and he saw that he had gotten a text from you.
You did amazing as always, so proud of you 😘
You never sent him hearts or kissing emojis but now you did. Lewis took this as a sign that you weren’t mad about what had happened. He took a deep breath and dialed your number.
You picked up the phone after a few signals. 
“Hey Lewis, congratulations on your victory!” you said and he could hear your smile through the phone.
“Thank you so much, I appreciate it.” 
Silence fell between the two of you.
“Listen, I wanted to talk about what happened before I left. I’m so sorry that I kissed you, I was stressed and didn’t think clearly.”
“It’s fine really, I didn’t mind it.” you interrupted him.
“No?”
“Not at all. Frankly it was quite nice.” 
A huge smile formed on Lewis face, it was almost bigger than when he just won the race.
“Honestly, I did too, but I was afraid that I had ruined our friendship.”
“Well what if we were more than friends?” you asked, taking your chance.
“I would love that.” he answered.
“Really?”
“Yeah, I’ve liked you for quite a while so it feels great to hear you say that.” he beamed. You laughed and you wanted to scream to relieve your body from all this happiness. Someone called for Lewis that it was time to get on the podium.
“I have to go, but when I get home I will take you on a proper date.” 
“I can’t wait.” 
He hung up and for the whole ceremony he was thinking about you, almost couldn’t wait to get back home to you. 
A/N: Thank you for reading 🥰

DIABOLIK LOVERS Animate Kuji B Prize Tokuten Drama CD [Reiji・Kanato・Subaru]
Tumblr media
Original title: B賞ドラマCD (カナト・レイジ・スバル)
Source: Diabolik Lovers Animate Kuji Tokuten Drama CD [CD not owned by me]
Audio: Here
Seiyuu: Katsuyuki Konishi, Kaji Yuki & Takashi Kondou
Translator’s note: Reiji suffering hours never end in the Sakamaki manor. Honestly, for how serious and low-key boring his HDB route is, Reiji is by far the most entertaining character in the early era tokuten CDs. He’s the only character who is actually trying to keep everything together but chaos just breaks loose every time lol.
→  LIKE MY TRANSLATIONS? SUPPORT ME ON KO-FI!
Subaru enters the kitchen.
*Thud*
*Rustle rustle rustle*
Subaru: ...!? The fuck’s goin’ on in here...?
*Rustle rustle*
Subaru: ...Ah, fuck! ...Where am I supposed to walk...!?
Kanato: Subaru, is that you? 
Subaru: Uwaah...!? Kanato! Where the fuck did you just crawl out of...!? ーー Or rather, what are you doin’?
Kanato: Can’t you see? ...I’m looking for sweets!
Subaru: Haah...? Didn’t you have a cake of some sorts for dinner just earlier? 
*Rustle rustle*
Kanato: ...I’m hungry...but I can’t find anything to snack on...Uu...Even though I’m starving...So why...? Uu...Sob...
Subaru: Argh...Geezー Shut the fuck up...I only came here to fetch a drink! Oi! Did you happen to across a bottle of mineral water?
Kanato: Don’t ask me. Look for that yourself.
Subaru: I can’t because you flipped the whole damn kitchen upside down!
Kanato: I can’t help you if I don’t know myself. ...Right, Teddy? I wonder why he’d lash out at me like that when I clearly said I don’t know? When he could make an effort to search for it himself, he just takes out his anger on me instead...That guy should just drop dead already.
Subaru: Che...! This is such a pain in the ass!
*Thud*
Kanato: Hm...I wonder why he’s there losing his cool in the corner by himself. Right, Teddy?
Subaru: Che...!
*Rustle rustle*
Subaru: Haah...Ugh...Huh? ...Tsk.
*Rustle rustle*
Kanato: Ah! Found something!
*Rustle rustle*
Kanato: Oh...Crackers? ー Ugh.
He chucks them to the side.
Subaru: What’s the problem? You were searching for food, right?
Kanato: You really don’t understand, do you? I’m looking for sugary treats. I finally found something, but it turned out to be these bland-tasting crackers...Haah...Are the people in this house trying to starve me to death!?
Subaru: Ahー Everything has to be loaded with sugar for you, doesn’t it? Hm...?
Subaru walks over to the counter.
Subaru: The fuck’s this? A small container and a bottle...? There seems to be some sort of white powder inside? Sugar, maybe?
Kanato: ...!! Give that to me!!
Kanato snatches the bottle away from Subaru.
*Rustle rustle*
Subaru: ...Uwah!? ...Oi, aren’t those the crackers you tossed away earlier?
*Rustle rustle*
Subaru: ...? D-Don’t tell me...!?
Kanato rips open the crackers and starts pouring the sugar on top.
Kanato: If I do this...Then the crackers will become sweet...Fufufu~ 
Subaru: No, wait! I said it might be sugar! But what if it’s something entirely different...?
Kanato: Haahn...
*Munch munch*
Subaru: Listen to me!!
Kanato continues eating.
Subaru: ...How is it?
Kanato: Fufu, it’s sweet...~
Subaru: Which means...It really was just plain sugar? The fuck. There wasn’t a label on it, so I thought that maybe Reiji left one of his shady concoctions laying ‘round. ーー In that case, I guess the liquid in this bottle is just plain old water as well. 
He opens the bottle.
Subaru: It’s transluscent and has no scent so...It should be fine, right?
*Gulp gulp*
Subaru: Haah...
Reiji enters the kitchen.
Reiji: What are the two of you doing in here this late at niーー 
Subaru: Che...Geh, Reiji!?
Reiji: Ah...What happened in here!? 
Kanato: ...
*Munch*
Kanato: I was only looking for some sweets.
Reiji: Ah, geez! I’ve told you before that your snacks are in the shelf over there in the back, haven’t I!? Your searching method is to blame here! ...Wait, Kanato...What is that you’re holding in your hand?
Kanato: I poured all of this sugar over the crackers and ate them. ...Fufu, it made them at least somewhat palatable, right, Teddy?
Reiji: All of it...!?
Subaru: Oi...Did we make a mistake?
Reiji: ...Why do you people always put everything in your mouth straight away!? That medicine is still in its testing phase, so I cannot predict the effeーー
*Cling*
Subaru: ...!? Ugh...
Kanato: Uu...
Subaru: My headーー!
Kanato: ...It hurts...! It feels like my head’s splitting in two...!!
Subaru: ...Aaaargh...!!
Reiji: ...And that’s exactly why I keep on telling you lot not to eat everything you see...
*Thud*
Reiji: ...?
Kanato: Ehehe~ Such lovely weather we’re having today~! It’s like Mr. Sun is smiling brightly at us~!
Reiji: K-Kanato...?
Subaru: Yeah, mate! On days like these, I just want to go for a nice, long run!
Reiji: Subaru!?
Kanato: Ooh~? Rei-pyon, didn’t see you there! ...What’s wrong~? Why are you making that strange face?
Subaru: Kanato! Rei-rei’s face always looks weird, remember? You shouldn’t tell him straight-up though.
Reiji: R-Rei...pyon? Rei-rei!? 
( Is this the medicine taking effect...? )
Subaru: Rei-rei! If you keep on making those troubled expressions, you’re only going to get even more wrinkles, you know? If somethin’ is weighin’ heavy on your mind, why don’t you join me outside for a round of soccer?
Reiji: ...I have no worries! I refuse to play soccer as well!
Kanato: Rather than playing soccer, why don’t you join me and Teddy and bask in the sunlight~? I’m sure it’ll be a blast!
Subaru: No! A healthy mind in a healthy body is key! You should play some soccer as well, Kanato. Ah! I guess the more, the merrier, right? I’ll go call the other guys as well! Hehe~!
Subaru runs towards the door.
Reiji: Ah...! Subaru! Halt!
Reiji stops him just in time.
*Rustle*
Reiji: ...Either way, we have to sort out this situation first. If you insist on playing soccer, please wait till later.
( If I let the other brothers see these two in their current state, things will only get even more troublesome. For now, it is most important to get a good grasp on the situation. )
I’ll start with you, Kanato.
Kanato: What’s wrong, Rei-pyon~?
Reiji: ...! ...Please stop using that disgusting nickname at once.
Kanato: Eeeeh~?
Reiji: ...
Kanato: Ehehe~ 
Reiji: I suppose I should retrieve the drug first and foremost. ...Kanato, please hand me those snacks.
Kanato: Eh...?
Reiji: ( I suppose he is still reluctant to hand over his sugary treats. However, the usual Kanato would most likely throw a tantrum here. I suppose I should push him to the very limit. )
Kanato. Hurry up and give them to me. I’m confiscating these! 
Reiji snatches the crackers from his hand.
Kanato: ...Ah! ...Uu.
Reiji: ( ...!? He’s not getting mad!? )
Kanato: Uu...Hic...Rei-pyon...I’m so sorry. Will you give me back my sweets if I promise I’ll be good...?
Reiji: Ah...N-No...I did not want an apology from you or anything...Here.
*Rustle*
Kanato: Ah~! Thank you, Rei-pyon!
Reiji: But like I said, no more of that nickname! ーー Well then, how about Subaru?
Subaru: Hah...Hah!!
Reiji: ( ...He’s doing sit-ups...!? )
I take my eyes off you for two seconds and what are you doing now!?
Subaru: Can’t you tell? Sit-ups! Nothin’ feels better than movin’ your body! 
Reiji: ( The drug affected him in this way, huh...? )
What happened to your usual self, Subaru? While it is more than fine you decided to stop destroying everything in your sight, this is creepy on a whole new level. 
Subaru: Hm? Taking out your anger on other things isn’t good, you know? If you’re got any worries, I’ll listen to you, okay? Come on, tell me!
Reiji: ...
 Subaru continues to do his sit-ups in the background.
Reiji: I didn’t think I’d ever hear those words coming from you...
( If I have to try and reason with them any longer, I will surely lose my mind. While I am still not certain about the exact effects, I should prioritize getting started on an antidote of some sorts. )
Kanato: Rei-pyon? Is something bothering you? Want some sweets?
Reiji: No, thank you. 
Subaru: Then want to go for a run? You’ll feel reborn afterwards!
Reiji: I am fine! ...Either way, I shall prepare an antidote at once, so just drink that!
*TIMESKIP*
Kanato: Uu...Sob...I’m hungry...Uu...
Subaru: I don’t remember leavin’ my room and comin’ here at all...Although I’m strangely exhausted for some reason? ...I wonder why?
Reiji: Haah...
Subaru: ...Hah? The fuck’s with that face, Reiji? You look like an old geezer.
Kanato: He is older than us, so of course he does, Subaru. Fufufu~
Reiji: ...Who do you think is to blame for that?
Subaru: ...Aah?
Kanato: Say, is dinner ready yet? Did you not hear me when I said I’m hungry earlier!?
Subaru: Ahー I could go for some food as well.
Reiji: Aah, god, I know! Fine! Whatever you do, don’t touch any of the bottles theーー
Subaru: Tsk...I’m thirsty as well. ...Oh! There’s a bottle right here!
*Gulp*
Reiji: ...Ah.
ーー THE END ーー
