It happened again.
Another failed date to add to the sad list of people that simply will never workout for you.
The list was growing longer as months passed. When you started this list, it was barely the start of a very hot summer. Probably the hottest it’s been in years, one can only assume the winter will not be any easier. 
And you were right. Winter was only beginning and it was brutally cold. The streets were moist from the previous night of harsh rainfall. 
What better time to date and settle down than now. When the world gives you rain, settle for the warm arms of a lover.
Unfortunately, you made a grave mistake thinking this would come easy. Ten first dates later and you are still very single and loverless. 
It is not easy to go out during a time like now, suffering at the sight of happy couples and their stupid happy lives. Really, it should disgust you. It used to. The whole concept of devoting your entire life to someone. The need to constantly feel the tender touch of another person. The desire to fall in love and do it all over again, you get it now. At least, you think you do. 
“I don’t think this is gonna work.” The words fall from your mouth in a quiet rush. The man across you sits in silence before he smiles in his loss. 
“Don’t worry, I figured. It seems your mind was elsewhere. I know you don’t want to pursue anything romantically, and that’s fine with me, but is everything okay?” 
Is everything okay? Well currently, yeah you’re okay. As for your heart, it’s heavy and strangely, you feel there’s a hole in your chest and it needs to be filled. That would fix things, you think. You have been single for so long that you forgot what it was like to love and cherish someone. Not that you have ever truly loved or cherished anyone, but you’ve gotten close. If a silly relationship you had in your sophomore year of high school counts. Then yes, you’ve totally been in love. 
“I’m okay. Thanks for asking. I didn’t mean to lead you on, if it ever felt like I did.” The apology seems bitter in your mouth. Another failed fucking attempt. How difficult can dating be? Have you really been this disconnected with the world around you? 
“Don’t stress it! Things happen. I hope you can find what you’re looking for. See you… around?” The man’s understanding response makes you feel worse. Maybe you should consider deleting Tinder and finding love naturally, if that’s still a thing in the contemporary life. 
“Yeah, totally!” And like that you’re off to the next. Giving yourself plenty of time to bathe in your disappointment and miserably cry about your failed attempts at finding what you’ve been missing. Who knew dating could be so difficult?
The walk back home is just as cold as the outcome of today’s date. Your date insisted he could drive you home and if not that then pay for a cab, but you didn’t live too far from the restaurant you both met at. Though he insisted, you figured this walk could refresh you after yet another failure. You were starting to regret it as the cold wind started roughly hitting your skin. Preserving the chilly weather, you genuinely couldn’t wait to get home and wrap yourself in a bundle of warm blankets and comfortable clothes. 
Cold hands struggle to open your door, you blow on them with warm puffs of breaths, soon making your way in and getting comfortable in your humble apartment. 
yoon: you up?
And that, that is what made this harder. The fact that you knew there was someone completely capable of loving and caring for you the way you desired. You have seen it with your own eyes. Every time you ended up in his bed, in his arms, you felt it. Deep down you know something is there and that something beats everything else. Maybe you’re just delusional, but you look for him in everyone else and you hate it. Hate because you will never be anything more than his personal little whore that comes at the sound of his call. 
me: yeah
Normally, you aren’t dry over texts, especially not with him so he’ll see right through you. You’re hoping for once, he can ignore it. 
He won't. 
yoon: you ok?
me: been better
yoon: wanna talk about it?
me: no, i'm ok
yoon: ok, wanna come over? 
Yes, because during a time like this all you want is the comfort and warmth of someone else’s touch and Yoongi has never failed at giving that to you. But he is not yours.
And you are not his. 
me: not feeling well. sorry.
yoon: sick? 
A white lie never hurt anyone. 
me: yeah, throat hurts
yoon: im sorry 
me: it's not your fault maybe another time.
Though you really shouldn’t say that. There should be no next time. That way you don’t suffer any longer and drag him down with you, considering everything you’ve been feeling and dealing with lately. It’s not fair to Yoongi, but especially yourself.
He doesn’t reply anymore and you can’t even hide your disappointment. You aren’t disappointed at him, okay maybe a little bit at him, but mainly yourself and your recently found complicated feelings. 
You and Yoongi started this whole mess a year ago, before you even realized what you truly wanted. It started off with subtle flirting here and there. They say not to mess with coworkers, given that it can complicate things at work and one should never play with their main source of income, but you did it anyway. You are still young and he only made you feel younger, like a teenage girl crushing over her forbidden crush at church. It was silly, but Yoongi made it easy. 
The flirting turned to one thing, then another. 
“We shouldn’t, not here.” Yoongi had you pinned outside the club you both worked at, leaving trails of wet kisses down your throat.
“Five more minutes.” His words were muffled into your skin as his hands explored your body. Yoongi’s touch was always way too soft for his own good and you fell victim to his deadly warmth. 
“If Mr. Kim finds out, he’ll kill us and fire us both.” That was a bit dramatic on your part and you swore you felt the taller smiling against your neck.
Yoongi drops one last kiss on your cheek as his hot breath hits your ear. “Not if I kill him first.”
You gasped, pushing him off you with a quick smack to his chest. “D-Don’t even joke like that.” 
Yoongi just laughed. 
“Okay, okay baby.” The term of endearment fell from his lips too easily and you melted into the dark night. “See you after work?” 
You only nodded, not being able to deny his temporary warmth and sweet presence. Then he dropped a kiss on your lips, leaving you just as quick as when he first found you. You were fucked.
From there, it only got worse for your sake. Your heart could only take so much. 
Really, you should blame things on him. It was his fault you fell in love with him and his stupidly soft hands. It was all his fault! He left you no choice but to love the feel of his lips against your skin, to easily melt under his soft gaze, and find comfort in his unnecessarily warm bed. Yoongi was perfect. Everything you could ever want. 
That’s why it was so fucking hard. Dating was hard enough, but after feeling Yoongi’s intimate touch, you were a complete goner. Though he was far from it, Yoongi touched you like you were his and he would fuck you like a lover would. Kissing and making love to you as if you were the most beautiful woman on Earth. It was all too much. 
Fuck, you really needed to get a grip.
The knock on your door makes you jump from your couch. 
Ten minutes longer and you would have fallen asleep exactly where you were lying. In outside clothes and all. You didn’t even bother taking off the outfit you had carefully planned thinking that this lucky outfit would have finally taken you somewhere. It didn’t. 
“Coming!” There’s not a single person that should be outside your door, especially at this hour. Your feet make their way to the door regardless and the blood from your face drains when you see the person standing behind the door. 
Quickly, you unlock your front door, rushing the taller inside. “Hurry! It’s freezing! What are you doing out here?” 
Yoongi’s cheeks are surely frozen, a pink dust decorates his cheeks and the tip of his nose. It almost makes him look cute. You were far more gone than you imagined. 
He hustles inside, carrying a fairly large brown bag with him. He brought… groceries? 
“Took you long enough.” The taller one makes himself at home, laying his bag on your coffee table. 
“What are you even doing here?” You ask again. 
He ignores you. “Thought you said you were sick. You don’t look very sick?” 
Yoongi looks at you with a questioning look, his eyes wander your outfit and guilt starts eating your insides. 
You cross your arms, an attempt to hide yourself in shame, but what’s done is done. “I- I had plans.” 
“Yeah, I see that.” He simply says, standing awkwardly in your living area. 
If this doesn’t convince you to delete that forsaken app for the sake of your dignity and shameful behavior, you don’t know what will.
“Anyways, w-what brings you here?” 
“Brought you some stuff.” His hand waves over to the bag he carried inside. 
“Stuff?” You question, a bit dumbfounded, planted still in your place.
“Tea, cough drops, some soup I made earlier this week. Oh and flowers.” Yoongi doesn’t seem at all embarrassed or fazed about the situation. Not that he should be, but he speaks with a puff to his chest, as if he wanted to ensure you understood his every word and action. Like any concerned lover would be. As if he was yours and you were his.
Oh.
This was so so bad. For you and your weak heart. Fuck.
“I-“ 
He cuts you off before you even get to speak. “I don’t know if you’ll like it. It’s just some plain seaweed soup. Usually helps me when I’m sick. I’m not sure what flowers you like, or if you even like flowers. Do you? Their tulips. I did a bit of research before. My mom likes tulips. I figured you might like them too.” 
He did research? Double fuck! 
Yoongi was nervously rambling, now he was slightly embarrassed. Pink flushes his cheeks and it wasn’t the weather’s doing this time. 
“Yoongi…” You start breathlessly and in disbelief. 
“What?” He nearly stutters, his hand is shaking. He’s nervous. Who would have thought? 
“Why.” Is all you manage to ask. 
“You were sick.” Is all he replies. As if things were really that simple. What next? Would he come rushing to the hospital if you suddenly fell ill? God forbid, but it was a valid question. 
What was going on? For a second, you entertain the idea. Maybe he fell in love between the blurry lines of this complicated relationship. Were the shared intimate memories too special for him to forget too? You weren’t sure anymore, but what did this all mean? Maybe he loves you, as much as you love him.
Thoughts keep spinning and you wish there was an easier way to turn off your brain. Not now.
“I know, but why? Why all this? Why for me?” Your vulnerability is showing and it makes you feel weak. Maybe your hands are shaking too. 
“I don't understand?” Yoongi searches for the answer in your glossy eyes, he’s tempted to reach out and comfort you. Have you in his hands, but he’s too coward. He doesn’t want you to feel the shiver of his touch right now. His vulnerability peaks through as well. 
Why not you? It’s always going to be you. 
“I-I’m nothing to you.” There’s a shiver again and then you break. 
Yoongi doesn’t care anymore. He’ll consider the consequences later. Right now, none of it matters.
His hands hold your face, ready to wipe the tears that threaten to leak from your precious eyes. He hopes his hands aren't cold anymore from standing outside for so damn long, but he couldn’t stop himself, in his selfishness and all.
His hands shake slightly, trying to stay strong as he lays it all on the table. “Y/N, you’re everything to me.” He whispers, eyes never leaving yours.
You lay your own hands on his, you feel so delicate around him when you wrap warm hands around his cold wrists.
“I-I am?” You ask between sniffles. His hands are still pretty cold, but they’ll soon warm up against your soft skin. Nobody knows how desperately you need to be touched until you are and then it’s like little fireworks spark inside your body. It consumes you in the best way possible.
“Of course. I thought I made that obvious.” His eyes are soft, different to how he typically looks at you, but you’ve seen these same eyes before. They are no stranger. It’s similar to the look he gives you when you catch him staring at you while you are deep in work. He pretends to look away as if he wasn’t admiring you from afar and you pretend that you don’t notice his curious eyes. It’s the same look he has after you both end up in heated makeout sessions, behind the rusty club you both work at. And it’s definitely the same look he has while he settles on top of you, whispering sweet words of praise and promise.
Nothing should feel different but it just does, there’s something in the way he looks down at you that lets you know that everything you’ve been searching for has always been right here. Right where you’ve been all along.
The taller leans in and you freeze struggling to keep your eyes on his. Yoongi’s thumb brushes against your cheek with a soft touch. You were fragile between his hands and he’s willing to do anything to keep his precious flower safe. “Can I kiss you?” 
“Yes. Please.” You whisper back in a hurry, scared that this would be nothing but a dream. It wasn’t time for you to wake up yet.
His eyes zero-in on your lips and then he’s kissing you. It’s not much different from other times. After all, you guys have shared plenty of kisses, probably more than you should have considering you guys were friends with benefits, at most. But this time, the kiss isn’t just a careless lust-filled doing, no this time the kiss is a promise. The promise to never again allow you to question his feelings and intentions towards you. 
If Yoongi has to spend his whole life making this up to you, he simply would because that’s how much you meant to him. He can’t believe he even let this go on for this long. He should have been more clear and careful, but he doesn’t regret a damn thing. Not when he has all the time in the world to repair the time lost. And especially not when his reckless actions led him to this. To you.
Yoongi’s lips are soft and bend with yours with ease. He takes his time, never in a rush. Especially not when he has you in-hand. 
The taller doesn’t escalate the kiss. He keeps it sweet and gentle, like he always has been. “I’m so sorry baby.” 
Kiss.
“For?” 
Kiss.
Yoongi has the whole world in his hands right now as he looks down into the sparkles in your eyes and he’s never been so sure about anything in his life. “For being a fucking idiot.”
Kiss. 
“It’s okay.” A kiss is shared again. “I was an idiot too. I was just scared that you wouldn’t want that with me.” 
“Want what?” The taller questions, fingers trailing your face, admiring the imperfections and all. 
“A relationship, I mean. You seemed content with how our relationship already was. I was afraid of losing that. Of losing you.” You admit, eyes fluttering at his touch. 
“Of course, I want that. I want that and more. I-I’m not the best with relationships. I’m only saying this because I want to be open and honest with you. There’s not a second you aren’t on my mind. While at work, you are all I can see. In a crowd of a hundred, my eyes always find yours. I don’t know how to explain what you do to me. But I don’t mind. I think if I ever lost that, I would lose my mind. So I’m sorry if I ever made you feel the opposite. There’s so much more I want to say, but I just don’t know how. I want that. I want that so bad. A relationship and whatever more you give me. I might not be the best boyfriend but I’ll do whatever it takes. I- I love you.” Yoongi’s words are heartfelt and he’s so relieved. One because he’s been keeping this in for so long, any longer and he would have exploded, but second because he’s been dying to say those three words. He really does love you and Yoongi doesn’t love many people in life, but if he had to choose, it’s always gonna be you. 
The tears that were creeping on your eye-lids fall prettily down your face, but Yoongi comes to your rescue. He’s quick to wipe them off your pretty face, tempted to kiss them away, but he keeps that in for now. “Y-Yoongi… I love you too. So much. I think I always have. You are so easy to love. The way you look at me, care for me, and always show up for me. That says more about you than anything else. I tried dating to get over what I felt for you, as you can probably tell, but nothing worked. It was so easy, Yoongi. So easy to fall in love with you. You’re perfect and I don’t doubt that you’ll be the best even after all this. I love you.”
“I love you too, I love you. Fuck, I love you.” Yoongi kisses you again and this time he isn’t as gentle. His lips are still soft as ever as they curl around yours. His tongue comes out and you immediately allow access, letting him explore your mouth. The taste is much better now that there isn’t anything you both are holding back. Everything down on the line and you couldn’t be happier. The hole in your heart was never empty, it was just waiting for this exact moment to remind you that you’ve always had it all. 
“Yoongi.” In between breaths you call his name and Yoongi feels his knees lock. “Take me to bed.” 
Yoongi just nods in a trance with the way your tone drips of arousal. A long strand of hair falls on his face when he picks you up with ease off your feet. He takes you to the place he’s had the honor to visit a hundred times before, but it’s different this time, much different. 
In the process of it all, something falls and it causes you both to laugh until you run out of breath. 
“I can’t believe that just happened.” You laugh into his ear. “You owe me a new lamp. My mother bought me that, you know. House-warming gift.”
“Fuck, sorry.” Yoongi mumbles near a whisper as he grips you harder like he’s afraid he might drop you next and the idea makes you giggle because you know he would never purposely hurt you. “I’ll apologize to your mother directly. Buy you and her a new lamp, whatever it takes.”
“What makes you think you are meeting my mother?” You tease with a smile on your face, watching the blush rise on his cheeks. 
“Well, I figured we could, you know, if you would like–” Yoongi doesn’t often get shy about many things but he can’t keep calm around you and that kills him softly.
“I’m just teasing you.” You say and he bites his lip. “Of course you’ll meet my mother and my father and my nosy ass family. I hope you like annoying, persistent grandma’s that stuff you full. My grandma’s the worst of her kind, but she’ll love you.”
“I would love to.” Yoongi simply replies, still whispering as if you guys had to keep quiet or else you’d be in deep trouble. 
“Why are we still whispering?” You whisper back, roaming fingers through his long, gorgeous hair. He needs to remind you to thank his mother personally for insisting he keep his hair long because it made him look pretty and you could never disagree. Yoongi’s so pretty. 
“I-I don’t know.” 
You both smile at each other before sharing another kiss. It’s so sweet and if you weren’t already off your feet, you would be floating by now. He’s gentle when letting you drop into the sheets below, he finds space between your legs and you wrap them around his hips. Lips still in contact, never losing the plushy feel. 
Everything starts to feel hot. Your hips start to slowly grind against his begging for any sort of friction. But the kissing doesn’t stop. 
Not when you start whining against his lips. 
Not even when Yoongi starts trailing his fingers down your waist and around your curves. He teases his fingertips against your waistline, soft to the touch. 
It’s not until you mewl loudly into his mouth, skillful tongue playing with yours, as you feel him start unbuckling your pants, button-by-button. 
Yoongi’s eyes are heavy-lidded, his gaze burning fire. “Gonna take care of you now, is that okay?” 
You furiously nod, coming up to kiss him once more, both your lips are raw and sensitive, but it gives you more of a reason to fix it with even more kisses. 
He drops one quick kiss onto your mouth before he trails down your jaw. Yoongi breathes in the sweet scent on your skin, wishing he could feel you even closer. “Smell so damn good.”
His voice is raspy against your ear and it makes you blush, while you feel his hand finally touch you where you had been aching with need. “Wanna hear you.”
Breathing lightly, you whisper. “Make me.” 
And of course, Yoongi makes you regret how fast you said the words because he delves his fingers forward with little resistance. Two fingers stretch you at the same time, gasping at the sudden sensation. 
By now, you were molded to fit Yoongi’s fingers. On days where you were really in need, you would take four, all at once. Yoongi was best at reading every expression, every crease and scrunch to your face, especially emotions. He knew exactly how to curve his fingers, the way to build you up, and bring you back down. Yoongi knew it all and he was so lucky too. 
He never anticipated it would have gone this far. It was just sex to begin with. But who were you both kidding, it was always much, much more. 
Yoongi curves his fingers in the way he’s used to and watches your mouth drop, sweet noises soon leaving your lips. “Feels good?” 
There’s no need to ask because he can tell. Your expression tells him everything he needs to know. That and the fact that you are dripping around his fingers but it’s sexier hearing it from you. 
“Yeah… f-feels so good.” With his other hand he tugs your clothes off, leaving you bare on the bottom. Remembering the first few times is a bit embarrassing, but Yoongi always made sure to take his time and make you feel comfortable. It was special and memorable in its own way, and Yoongi felt it too. 
This is unlike any first time, but it was technically the first time you could officially make love to each other until you fall lovesick and that had to be impossible around someone like Yoongi. 
“Hold your legs open for me, flower.” You try to ignore the warm feeling that buzzes in your chest, but you are sure your face says it all. Without another word, you spread your legs open, tucking both hands behind your thighs.
“Flower?” You breathe out with a bit of a struggle as his two fingers continue to pump deep inside you, brushing repeatedly against your g-spot. 
“Do you not like it?” Yoongi smiles slightly, biting his bottom lip while he watches you start to tremble, making the prettiest sounds. 
“I do. Why the new name?” Voice a bit unsteady but it does the job. Yoongi thinks of all the times he thought you were as pretty as a flower, which really was all the time. Especially, in the way he has you right now. Pretty, pretty as a flower. 
“I’ve always wanted to call you that. You’re pretty, sweet, delicate. Just like a flower.” He justifies his reasoning and you melt into puddles. 
“Yoongi.” Voice sweet as honey. 
“Yes baby.” He replies with ease.
“Make love to me, Yoongi.” 
There was a time in his life where Yoongi believed he could live without love. How foolish of him to think so. When he met you, it was a complete three-sixty. Suddenly, Yoongi started to look forward to his shit job. He looked forward to that time between breaks where he could admire you from the back like a pinning loser. Yoongi even started to like the walks he had to take to get to work because he knew that the path would eventually lead to you. He started looking forward to tomorrow's and to the bright future that led ahead. His mom would often complain that he was wasting his life away waiting for it to start, but Yoongi thinks life truly started the day he met you. 
It was a bit awkward because you couldn’t even look him in the eyes, intimated by the staff and new environment. You had previously worked in different bars so you assumed it would be no different and it wasn’t, but the intimidation of a new job was there nonetheless. Yoongi was there every step of the way. He had a crush on the new employee and you needed help on fitting in. Either way, your friendship was very platonic until it wasn’t. 
Yoongi knows he should have said something along the lines “hey, maybe we shouldn't be doing this anymore. I’m in love with you and I have been since you started working here” but the stupid words never made it out. He felt it would be too much to hear and it would only make him look like a complete loser. 
And you felt the same. It was silly really, because everyone around you knew it and there was no reason to fear someone as easy going and non-judgemental as Yoongi, nonetheless it brought you both here. After many failed dating attempts, you were finally happy and in the arms of someone who you truly love and want to be loved by. 
There was a time in his life where Yoongi believed he could live without love, now Yoongi believes your precious, sweet love brought him back to life and he wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. 
Clothes now discarded on the floor, heavy breathing filling the room, and Yoongi could get wasted on the smell of your intoxicating perfume. “Breathe flower.”
Yoongi felt you shiver at the sound of his words, throwing your head back as he thrusts you full of cock. He pushes inside you with gentle movements, struggling to keep himself up while feeling the tug of your warm velvet-like walls. 
You gasp feeling him hit your cervix in a calm, slow pace. It was breathtaking regardless of the gentle rhythm. “You’re so deep...”
“I know flower, breathe baby, breathe.” He is struggling to keep from coming inside you, overwhelmed by his own emotions as your eyes roll back, feeling the pressure rise in your belly. Without a condom, everything feels so different from other times, feeling every ridge and crease fold inside your drenching heat. You take him so nicely, like you always have. Like you’ve always belonged to him. 
You don’t even notice you stopped breathing until you start feeling lightheaded and desperate for fresh air. Breathing just as much as necessary so you don’t faint, you shake your head against his hold, his eyes watch yours, observing with curiosity. 
“No?”
“Mm, n-no.” You shake your head again, whimpering when you feel him kiss your cervix with his swollen tip, over and over and over. “Can– can you…”
“Can I what, pretty flower?” Yoongi rolls his hips a bit faster, feeling his orgasm build too quickly. He wishes he could have days with you like this always. Days to love and worship you from head to toe.
“Choke me.” You manage to say. “Don— don’t wanna breathe.” 
Yoongi growls deep, increasing his speed even more, desperate to fill the deepest part of your glistening folds. He feels you tense underneath, the sounds coming from your mouth are loud enough for your neighbors to hear, but Yoongi stopped giving a fuck about everything around him. 
He places a hand on your throat and squeezes gently, not blocking off your airways completely, but leaving you just enough air to work with. It drives you insane. The more you breathe, his rough thrusts take the air out from your lungs and the process repeats. It feels so good.  
“M-more. Harder.” You barely hear your own words, but Yoongi seems to understand because his dick is moving rapidly inside you, nearly splitting you in two. You wrap both hands around his wrist, loving the heavy weight against your chest. It’ll end too soon and it disappoints you in a way, but you have all the time in the world to make this up. “G-Gonna come.” 
Yoongi nods, concentrating on the way your face scrunches with pleasure. With love. The way your eyes tell him a story. God, Yoongi’s madly in love. “Come, my precious flower.” 
With those final words, you come on his bare slick cock, blossoming in the blissful afterglow. Yoongi doesn’t stop thrusting inside you, but he takes his hand off your throat, kissing your face gently when he sees tears start leaking down your cheeks. 
“It’s okay, you’re okay baby. Breathe for me. Slowly.” Yoongi’s words bring you back down and you throw your arms around him, crying against his shoulder. You don’t even know what invoked this strong emotion to sob your eyes out, but Yoongi allows it, caressing the back of your head. Yoongi doesn’t judge, he only holds you until you settle down. “It’s okay baby, let it out. Breathe, pretty flower.” 
“C-Come inside muh-me, please.” Even after all that, you still beg for him and Yoongi wants to laugh but for your sake and the fact that it’s endearing to him, he delivers accordingly without further questions. 
Right as he’s going to paint your walls white, he pushes himself up with one hand, still holding you with the other. “You sure?”
You’re confused about the sudden question, the tears still decorate your face but then you understand. “Birth control. Just come in me Yoongi, fuck me, fu-fuck.”
Yoongi doesn’t hesitate to regain his brutal pace, fucking you with purpose. Not that he doesn’t want kids in the near future, but he sure as hell doesn’t want any right now. He’s glad you are on the same page but maybe one day the conversation would spark and he wouldn’t want the mother of his kids to be anyone else but you. You were perfect for him. 
“Gonna come.” That’s the only warning you get, then he’s emptying himself inside your tight walls. He doesn’t stop rolling his hips, his slit leaking puddles, until he’s pumped himself dry. With one last thrust, he groans and carefully pulls out. 
He brings you with him, head falling against his chest as he continues to play with your hair, leaving kisses into your bare shoulders. “You okay baby?”
“Perfect. Feel so good.” You mumble into his skin, feeling around his waist. “I’m leaking your come into the sheets though.”
“I’ll take care of it, pretty flower.” You nod sleepily into his chest with a quiet ‘thank you’, feeling completely sated and satisfied, aching with exhaustion. “Sleep baby, I got you.”
With that, you fall deep into the shackles of sleep. Yoongi rubs your back until you completely fall asleep in his arms. He struggles to unwrap himself from your hold, but when he finally succeeds, he tucks you in and kisses your cheek a few times before getting up to clean up after the mess you both created. 
He’s light on his feet, bringing a warm towel to your slick folds and wipes as best he can, being gentle so you could continue to enjoy your sleep. Even like this, you look so beautiful and Yoongi is an extremely lucky man. 
Yoongi makes sure to also pick up the lamp he dropped from earlier as well. He blows out a breath of relief when he notices that the damage is nothing big and nothing that can’t be fixed. He’ll make sure to fix that as soon as he can. 
While he’s out there, Yoongi places the tulips into a vase and fills it with water, placing it near a window where it could grow and blossom beautifully near the sunlight. He even cuts the tips into slants because he had heard somewhere online they last longer that way, making sure to get rid of any dead leaves and petals. Yoongi couldn’t be happier.
After he’s done with the light cleaning, he washes his hands and feels the exhaustion hit him tenfold. He’s careful when placing himself back in bed, lifting your arm and placing himself underneath you. The man smiles when he feels you curl yourself around him, sleeping soundlessly. 
“I love you.” He whispers and even though you don’t say it back Yoongi feels it with the way you melt into his arms. Yoongi falls asleep easily that night. 
“Baby.” Yoongi hears someone call him and he ignores it. Sleep calls his name louder and he doesn’t feel like waking up right now so he groans and cuddles deeper into the bedsheets below him, unaware of the life around him. 
“Baby wake up.” You keep calling sweetly and it’s tempting but he persists.
“No. Don’t wanna.” Yoongi grumbles like an old man and you can’t help but to laugh. “Just ten more minutes.”
When you woke up the next morning, you were so thankful Yoongi had kept his promise. Your apartment was flawless and you were as clean as you could be. The tulips looked prettier today as the sun shined on the delicate petals. You even had time to warm the seaweed soup he brought from home and you couldn’t wait to get a taste. The smell alone is delicious and it warmed your home up nicely, you truly couldn’t wrap your head around the fact that this was no longer a dream but your reality. You could definitely get used to this. 
You drop kisses onto his warm cheeks until his eyes flutter open, almost similar to a cat. “There you are.”
Yoongi pulls you into his arms again with quiet noncoherent grumbles and closes his eyes once more. “Give me ten minutes.”
“It’s already been ten.” You whisper lightly laughing. 
“Oh. Ten more then.” You get comfortable on his chest and cuddle for a bit longer because you can’t say no to his cute sleepy self. 
Yoongi starts to sniff the air with curiosity. “Is that the seaweed soup I brought you?” 
“Mhm.” You hum. “Better get up soon before it burns.” 
That manages to be convincing enough and Yoongi forces himself up, with you in his embrace. 
“Wanna wake up like that forever.” He says, voice filled with sleep. 
“You can.” 
Yoongi snaps his heavy eyes towards you. “Are you–”
“Move in with me, Yoongi.” Yes, you skipped every step to this, but nothing was ever to code between you and Yoongi. One thing you were so sure of and that was spending the rest of your life with him. “Please.”
“I- yes, of course.” Yoongi wraps his arms around you for a tight hug, kissing your temple. “I love you. I love you and I’ll prove it to you every single day.” 
“I know, I love you too. I love you.” Those three words come out from your mouths so easily and it’s nice that you no longer have to ever hold back. The man of your dreams is in the palms of your humble home and he’s in love with you. This was better than any dream. 
“Let’s eat?” He says after some time of hugging and kisses being interchanged. 
You nod, letting him take you there. Your kitchen is filled with the cruel aroma of food and your tummy rumbles as you sit comfortably while you wait for him to serve you a bowl of the warm tasty soup. 
“I should be doing that. I’m a terrible host.” Yoongi shakes his head while smiling, the fluff of hair moving with him, then your phone dings. “Hold on, give me a second.” 
Your heart drops when you see it is a Tinder notification from a man you promised to get back to. You look over to find Yoongi serving your bowl, making his way to the table. He leans in puckering slightly and you immediately lean into the sweet sudden kiss while he places your meal in front of you. This Yoongi is new because it wasn’t often you could act domestically towards one another, however this was perfect and just what you needed. 
“Everything okay baby?” Yoongi asks while caressing your soft cheek and you immediately nod in his palm. 
“Yes, everything’s perfect.” You reply in awe. “Thank you Yoongi, for everything.”
For letting me love you and for loving me back. 
The older man just smiles and joins you for the meal. 
It turns out you didn’t need Tinder after all. 
You quickly delete the app off your phone and start to eat with the love of your life, conversation flows while you enjoy each other’s presence and fall deeper in love. 
Alike Yoongi, you couldn’t imagine it happening any other way. You were bound to fall in love, one way or another, but that man was meant to be yours as you were meant to be his.

Flowers in your throat
Lando Norris x Reader x Oscar Piastri
Genre: Angst
Summary: the problems of unrequited love
Warnings: hanahaki disease, blood, coughing
Notes: idk what this is... Does anybody wanna spam my inbox with things to write over break? Logan is on the list, but I'm blanking on ideas for the boy T_T
Masterlist
Tumblr media
Flowers. Beautiful things that each have their own meanings. One that even color plays into.
Beautiful amd deadly things, these Flowers. She can't even stomache the sight of them anymore. Not when they are the source of her current misery.
A misery she has yet to understand. Is one not enough for her? Will Lando hate her for loving more then just him? Is she really that greedy?
Her driving had suffered because of her lack of focus. She's coughing over the radio now and her engineer has started to notice. Her trainer even more so with how sick she looks.
She doesn't want Lando to find her like this. Maybe she doesn't even like Oscar and this is because of the loving looks and gentle touch he's been sharing with her boyfriend. Is she jealous? In a way yes, but she wants that from both of them. She coughs up another petal at the thought.
Hopefully Lando isn't awake. She'd been on the floor of the Hilton bathroom for at least an hour now. Her mind running through all her options. How she might be able to fix this.
Death is the easiest option in the long run. The surgery would hurt Lando as she would struggle with any kind of love afterwards. Oscar loving her back is another, but again, how would Lando react?
She'd yet to even open up to him about the idea of polyamoury. To scared from past encounters and getting hurt. Easier just to ignore anything else. The words of her last partner rings through her ears. 'It's either one or the other' but never both. How can she have such a love for two people to the point it's killing her?
The door creaks open. She panics and tries to hide from Lando's worried gaze. He still ends up on the floor with her.
"Please talk to me."
"I can't. You're going to leave me."
"Whatever this is, we'll figure it out, okay? But we can't even begin to work on it if I have no idea what's going on." And he's right. For as chaotic as he is, Lando has always wanted to work through things together.
"I'm not - well - before I start I should say I love you dearly with every fiber of my being."
"Is this a break up?"
"No!" She shouts a little to loudly and quickly. Lando looks a bit startled but calms we he sees just how panicked she is. "I don't want us to break up - I just know that you won't want me anymore."
The thoughts of Lando leaving her flood her mind. Having to watch him and Oscar be teammates while she watches from afar. Her body wracks with coughs again as another petal comes up, pretty but splatters in red.
"Is that-?"
"Hanahaki, unrequited love."
"But I do love you so then..." He takes a moments to process. "It's not me is it?"
"My parents always told me my heart was to big." She inhales shakily. "It's Oscar."
"Since when? How long do we have before-" He doesn't finish the sentence.
"A have a few months left maximum. I'm already two months in."
"Silverstone."
"I'd already been fond of him before that but watching the two of you smile together like that." Tears slip past her eyes as she tries to stop the burning in her chest. "I'm so sorry and I understand if you leave. It's not like you signed up for this."
"I'm not leaving you. I don't care who else you love as long as I'm here with you. Plus, it's Oscar, I'd be lying if I said I don't have any feelings for him." Lando Admits with a shrug.
"Really?"
"I know you love me, too much, probably. If this is what loving you means then I'll be here every damn step."
She throws herself into Lando's arms, curling into the warmth of his body. And for the first time on two months, she cries in relief.
~~~~~
On the other side of things, Oscar isn't fairing any better. The constant scratch of his throat has started in August. Over the summer break when he had to bare witness to Lando and his girlfriends pictures.
He couldn't tell who he was more jealous of, or if he was jealous at all. Both, he was jealous of both because he wants to be with both of them. It's illogical, he thinks, that he should want two partners so desperately. They are committed to each other, why would they want him as well?
Lando is once again on the podium his female counterpart part there to congratulate him. Eyes shining as they smile at each other. The itch in his throat is to much. It burns in his chest as his lungs try to fight for air.
He runs back to the garage after getting weighed. Just in time to collapse onto the floor of his driver's room. Petals fall from his lips. Beautiful and soaking in red fluid.
He's still struggling to breathe when his door flys open. Logan amd Liam swim in his vision and ears. They drag him off the floor and get him upright again.
They clean him op and sit with him until Kim comes to get him for debrief. The older male looks horribly concerned. Lando also looks at him with something he can't pinpoint while sitting through the meeting. It's enough to make his chest burn again just knowing Lando is even looking at him.
Logan and Liam come knocking at his door that night. They want answers and rightfully so. He tells them, coughing on the bathroom floor while doing so.
"Have you talked to them?"
"No, why would they want me Lo?"
Liam hands him more water and pratically forces him to drink it. "Have you seen the way they look at you?"
And no, he hasn't, only how people say he himself looks helplessly in love.
How would they look at him now? In disgust? Maybe pity?
Shame he may never find out.
~~~~~
Another hard race. Las Vegas had messed them all up in some way shape or form. She couldn't breathe knowing Lando had crashed to hard. She coughed an entire petal up during the yellow flags just thinking about how he must be feeling.
She's been coughing up whole flowers recently. Tonight was no exception. Lando, despite being on heavy painkillers, was desperately trying to help her through a few larger ones.
She was barely eating anymore. Couldn't breathe. Her teammate had even noticed the drastic change in her appearance. Max and Christian had both been on her case. Third seemed so far away now as Lando tries to get water down her throat.
"I don't want you to die."
"And I don't want to live without love."
Lando manages to pull himself off the floor to answer the door. Mumbling about how it's probably Jon making sure he's alright.
She can hear the familiar voices of Oscar and Logan through the thin walls.
Oscar sounds rough. She blames it on the long race he had. He'd looked so tired coming out of the car, hands running through his hair.
Her lungs burn again. It's more so this time. Her entire body is on fire. She can't even cough properly and wails as she has to pull out whatever is in her throat.
A stem. One with thorns.
Lando is frantically pleading with Oscar and Logan for something. Oscar is also coughing. Enough that is worsens her own.
She coughs again. Another stem feels like it's tearing her open from the inside. She wails at the stinging pain. Panic overcomes her as it seems to never end.
The door swings open. Lando and Logan drag in a coughing Oscar.
He's in the same boat as her. He's been suffering this whole time.
"Logan who is it?! Please, I need to know." Lando is begging now. The sight of what's happening can't be helping his nerves.
"It's you two, both of you I think. He didn't say exactly."
She tunes out anything else. It's them. He is feeling this because of them. She coughs up the rest of the stem and the burning starts to fade.
But then the exhaustion hits. She wants to tell Oscar everything. Enough so he doesn't have to cough up thorns like herself.
She passes out before she can.
~~~~~
Oscar wakes up in bed. One that definitely isn't his own. He tries to sit up, but his body is depleted still. Noticeably, his lungs feel lighter then they have in months. The ache in his chest has lessened, but his love for the two is still there. If this isn't the work of a surgery then-
He sits up frantically, searching for something. Someone, more like. A hand on his shoulder pushes him back down.
"Relax, we're still here." It's Lando and his partner is on the other side of Oscar. She's dead asleep and rightfully so after what he witnessed her cough up.
"Where's Logan?"
"Asleep on the couch. He didn't want to leave you."
"And you - do you and her - are we?" His words are broken. He can't think properly.
"Caught feeling a while ago, mate. Her before I realized myself. She loves hard, enough to cough up flowers, apparently." Lando crawls into the space between Oscar and the female. Oscar, in his sleepy haze, latches onto Lando. He feels better being apart of whatever cuddle pile this is.
He falls back to sleep so easily. Only to be woken up later by a few frantic coughs. Lando is immediately trying to get the female out of bed and to the sink. She claims she's fine and it's confirmed by the lack of petals.
"It's from what the thorns did." Her voice sounds wrecked. Oscar tries to get up to help only to be pushed back again by Logan. Curse his exhaustion.
The American gets everyone water. Oscar is grateful for it as it soothes his still sore throat.
"So does this mean you three are going to be together then?" Logan raises an eyebrow.
"If either of them say no after this, I'm throwing hands. After the hell they've put me through I will force them to cuddle if need be."

i have something in my mind.
rindou asks renzo what he want for his birthday present and renzo answers that he wants a younger sister. andddd he's deadly serious with his request. renzo whines a lot about how badly he wants a sister so he can have someone to play with him. he insists rindou to get him a sister (ofc he doesn't know what that means). so what should rindou and y/n do about their son's wish now? especially when renzo really looks like he's looking forward to it. i will leave it to you 🤭
have a nice day btw. love you and your account <33
"I want a sister"
Warnings: Inappropriate language, smut, use of the words mommy, use of the words daddy, creampie.
Tumblr media
"I want a sister"
Rindou stood mouth agape, his morning coffee spilling all over the counter, as his 6 year old son with his back turned towards his father spoke.
"I want a sister" Renzo repeated turning around this time, his eyes starring into Rindou proving that he was serious about the matter.
"I want one now!" The young boy demand with a creased brow decorating his cute features.
"Renzo, you can't just get a sister now because you want one" Rindou said pulling himself together as he tried his best to explain to Renzo.
"Well I want one, so make me one now"
"Renzo..."
"I want one !"
"Okay fine I'll talk to your mommy when she gets home about you getting a sister" Rindou said with a sigh, caving into his sons demands.
"Yay! Can I pick out how she'll look, like can i choose her hair colour?" Renzo asked with a much more cheerful expression.
"Sure Ren" Rindou agreed as he was in no mood to start an argument with a child son about basic genetical exchange that cause phenotypes in people.
Rindou was left with the intrusive words of his son at the forefront of his mind 'I want a sister'. He knew that you had planned for another child, you never really wanted Renzo to be an only child. Rind himself never wanted for Renzo to be an only child as he enjoyed having an older brother. But neither you or Rind had ever talked about when the two of you would start trying for this second child.
It was like a silent agreement between the two of you that you'd have two children but when the two of you would start trying for this second child was unspoken about between the two of you.
But with Renzo's words ringing through Rindou's mind he took it as a sign to finally initaite it.
Tumblr media
Rindou watched as you lazily lied in bed, tired from a hard day's work. And it was now that he took the opportunity to strike, as your tired lackluster attitude would have little rejection for his touch.
"You look so tired baby. You want a massage?" Rindou asked as he moved closer towards you on the bed.
With a small amount of effort your lifted your head from your pillow giving him an approving nod.
Rindou now moved all the way over to your side of the bed, as he pulled down the sheets that hid your body.
Rindou bit on his lip at the sight of your body, even when you were exhausted from you still managed to look beautiful, which was making Rindou's task of getting you pregnant all that much easier.
Rindou began to put his hands on your shoulders as he began to massage them. Softly gripping at them as you released sighs of pleasure at his touch.
With a hard gulp and lots of self restrain Rindou began to talk again.
"You know I was sitting with Renzo today, and he was talking about how his lonely"
Rindou watched your facial expression that remained the same, with your eyes closed and a small smile on your face, before he began to talk again.
"You know we always spoke about having another one, and I mean Rindou would sure appreciate it"
With now scrunched eyebrows and a mind wondering what Rindou was trying to get at you listened now more attentively than before.
"So maybe we should start trying, like we said we would"
And there you finally heard what Rindou was trying to get at. He wanted another child. And as much as you wanted another you knew that you just didn't have the time.
But Rindou already knew what excuse you would use before you could speak.
"Don't worry about work, and money. I've got it all covered. I mean I am an executive for Bonten, it pays well to your surprise" Rindou said with a smirk trying to lighten your mood.
"Rin... I'm just not sure"
"Come on now" Rindou said as his hands began sliding from your shoulders down to your waist, and slowly down to your thighs as he began to massage.
"A baby isn't a bad thing, don't you miss the sound of hearing little feet on the floor"
"We already have that now" you said now turning your body over so now your eyes looked into his.
"Renzo is nearly 6 and soon he'll be 7 and before you know it his 18 asking if he can get an apartment"
"Come on" Rindou said as his hands went back to your thighs, now massaging your inner thighs to convince you further.
But still you would not budge, so Rindou decided to use another method.
"Don't you miss getting creampied" Rindou asked as he brought his lips down to your neck.
"I know I miss cumming in that tight pussy every night, and those pregnancy tits"
"Remember how good you felt when I would massage them, pull at your nipples and suck at them"
A sigh of pleasure slipped through your lips as you remembered Rindou's lingering touches during your pregnancy with Renzo.
"I miss being in this pussy nightly" Rindou said his hand coming in between your legs rubbing at your clothed pussy.
And suddenly any resistance you had left in you disappeared.
"Maybe we should" you whispered into Rindou's ear.
"I think we should" Rindou whispered into your ear.
You felt as Rindou began to slip your shorts off, your pantie sliding off with them. Feeling the evening air against your pussy making the need within you even more urgent.
"You feel so wet and tight" Rindou said as his hand now dipped back down between your legs, his finger slipping inbetween your folds gently prodding at your tight hole.
Slowly Rindou slipped one finger in, letting it rub against your walls. The feeling of his long finger massaging your insides making you slowly see stars.
"Rin please" you begged needing another finger in you.
Rin slipped another finger in watching as your face contorted with pleasure.
Your eyes rolled back as his long thick fingers curled against the sweet spot within.
Rindou watched in amazement, watching ad your greedy pussy hungrily devoured him whole, with no hesitation.
And suddenly the sight before him became to much. Rindou was quick to rid his fingers from your drooling pussy.
Watching intensively as the slick dripped down his fingers, making his already erect cock even harder.
With one quick motion Rindous cock was free and already prodding at your tight entrance, watching as the tight ring would contract with each nudge against it.
"Gonna make you mommy again" Rindou said barely above a whisper and more to himself.
You looked at Rindou with massive eyes, until you felt the depe pressure of him pushing himself past the tight hole of your pussy watching as Rindous eyes were shut and his head thrown back with pleasure.
"Rindou" you moaned out as your dug your nails into his arms.
Rindou settled deep within your already clamping walls, letting your slicken pussy devour him whole as he tried his best not to release his load in that instance.
"Gonna fuck with pussy till I make a baby" Rindou said as he began to thrust into you.
With each deep thrust into you, you could feel thr thickness of Rindou's shaft as well as the thick vein on the underside of his cock that traveled from his balls all the way to the tip that leaked pre-cum into.
Rindou watched with each thrust as your tits would jump together making him even more desperate to see you swollen with his child.
Rindou pace increased and the once deep intense thrusting quickly become quick shallow thrusts as he fucked you like a bitch in heat, trying to you mate your pussy as best as he could.
"Come on mommy, you ready to be swollen with my cum again" Rindou said with a smirk.
"Ye-s" you stuttered out as Rindou never ceased his brutal pace.
You could feel the way your walls fluttered from within as they grabbed at Rindou's cock, trying your best to bring him back into thoese deep delicious parts inside you.
Feeling as your head got lighter and lighter with each thrust.
"Rin I'm gonna" you said barely above a whisper.
"Come on princess, don't tap out on daddy yet"
"Gotta make sure you filled with cum tonight" Rindou said as he relentlessly fucked you, feeling as your pussy drown his cock as well as the throbbing of your clit that screamed to be played with.
Rindou grabbed your legs bringing them over his shoulders, reveling in how deep the new position was. Feeling as he cok was now drowning in your soaked pussy.
Rindou fucked you like that watching as whimpers slipped from your mouth and tears soon fell from your eyes.
Ans suddenly the sight before he became to much, feeling as the cum in his shaft was now dripping into your pussy and the urge to shoot hot white ropes into you was becoming to much.
"Shit" Rindou whispered beneath his breath.
His hands quickly coming down on your touched starve clit as he played with it. Rubbing the sensitive nub back and forth with slicken fingers.
"Cum on my cock baby"
"You'll take my cum well if you cum first"
Rindous encouraging words was quickly making you slip as you felt yourself lose any self control left.
Suddenly the pressure within became to much, as your pussy began to flutter around Rindou's cock as clear liquid gushed out causing you to throw your head back in pleasure.
"Oh Daddy" you moaned out as you road your orgasm out.
"Yes mommy make a mess on my cock" Rindou said biting on his lip watching as your melted yourself on his cock.
Rindou began to fuck into you again settling for a quick few thrusts before you felt your pussy become drenched in hot liquid.
You watched in amazement as Rindou grabbed at your hips stilling himself as he spilled his seed into you.
Rindou remained still inside you for a moment, before keeping your legs raised and reaching for a pillow on his side of the bed that he placed beneath you.
"What you doing?" You questioned as you watched his actions.
"Making sure your pussy takes my cum" Rindou said with concentration as he gently put your legs down.
"You're serious about another baby" you said with a giggle as Rindou now laid beside you.
"Of course I was. Renzo wouldn't shut up about wanting a sibling"
"So it was Renzo who encouraged you to do this" you said slightly sitting up.
"Oh come on, what if it's a mini you. That wouldn't be to bad?"
"But what if it's another mini you?" You asked with fake irritation.
"Well you like me so it won't be to much of a problem"
"I mean look what you let me do to you"

A Visit
Tumblr media
☆彡 Yan! Zeke x fem reader (Modern AU)
☆彡 Part 1
☆彡 Word count: 1039
☆彡 I do not condone any 'yandere' behaviour in real life.
☆彡 A/N: I was kinda hesitant to post this because it's super self-indulgent and I feel like many people hate Zeke (which is totally fine, you can like/dislike any fictional character, I just don't want anyone to judge me for writing this), but maybe someone else might enjoy this as well!
! TW: yandere behaviour, noncon touching, implied age gap (since reader and Eren are around the same age and Zeke is ten years older than him), just Zeke being a weirdo, MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY/MINORS DNI !
Summary: You want to visit your friend Eren. Instead, you end up being alone with his brother Zeke.
Tumblr media
You really hoped Zeke wouldn't be there this time.
He wasn't mean or rude to you. On the contrary, every time you went to visit Eren, his brother was accomodating to you and played the perfect host.
Maybe a little bit too much.
Eren was always annoyed by his behaviour and grumbled to turn it down. You, on the other hand, didn't want to be a bad guest, so you just chuckled awkwardly and kept quiet. You'd always wondered how the two brothers could live together, since they couldn't be any more different. Eren had once mentioned that his father wanted them to get along better, but this topic seemed to be a sore spot, so you let it drop.
Right now, you were in front of their shared apartment, waiting for someone to let you in. Eren had spontaneously texted you to come over and play video games. Not one to turn down a chance to finally beat him at Mario Kart, you quickly accepted. Though your excitement was quickly squashed when you saw Zeke open the door.
"Ah, Y/N", he spoke your name with such familiarity. "To what do I owe this pleasure?" He shot you a warm smile.
You gave him a nervous smile in return. "Hey Zeke, I'm actually here for Eren. He asked me to drop by."
"Oh, did he?" His head tilted slightly to the side. "Are you sure he asked you to come now? He's currently not home, he should be still at the gym as far as I'm aware."
You furrowed your eyebrows. He wasn't home? Why would he say to come over then? You took out your phone and checked the chat, just to make sure you didn't misunderstand anything.
No, he clearly wrote two p.m.
Not wanting to bother Zeke, you played dumb. "Oh yeah, you're right, he did say to meet later. I must have confused something." You let out a quiet chuckle, trying to cover up for the unease you felt. "I'll come back later, sorry for bothering you." You turned away from the entrance door, angling your body towards the stairs. Giving Zeke one last smile, you bid goodbye. "See you around, Zeke."
A hand shot around wrist and stopped you from moving any further. "Wait, Y/N!" Zeke gave you an intense look. Your heart started beating faster, startled by the sudden touch, and you pulled your wrist out of his grip. Noticing your discomfort, he schooled his expression into his typical calm smile again. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to frighten you. But how about you wait here? I've got an hour left before I need to go to work, so I can keep you company. That way, you don't need to come back later."
You didn't like the way he seemingly stared into your soul, trying to get an answer from you. Would he be upset if you refused? In the end, it'd be easier to stay, wouldn't it? "If that's okay for you, I don't want to impose", you hesitantly replied.
His smile reached his eyes now. "You wouldn't impose at all! In fact, I'm glad I don't have to be alone now." Zeke put his hand on the small of your back and gently guided you inside the apartment. You took off your shoes and were about to do the same with your coat, but Zeke was faster. Quickly, he grabbed the fabric and forced you to wiggle out of it.
"You didn't have to…", you uttered, embarrassed by his action.
He, on the other hand, gave you a chuckle in return and winked. "Only the best for my guest."
The two of you ended up playing Mario Kart instead. When you admitted that you didn't think he'd be so good at the game, Zeke answered he 'was talented with his fingers'.
You prayed he was only referring to his job as a surgeon.
Luckily, that one hour passed quickly. Zeke stood up from the couch and made himself ready for work.
Before you could realise his intention, Zeke had already bent down in front of your seated form and pressed a kiss on your head. His right hand gripped the back of your neck, making an escape attempt difficult. "I'm looking forward to doing this again with you", he whispered close to your ear, causing a shiver to run down your spine. The smell of nicotine and expensive cologne permeated the air and clouded your senses as you were fixated on his longing gaze. What the hell was going on?
Wordlessly, he got up again and offered you a small wave and innocent smile, as if the whole interaction hadn't happened.
You were about to say something — anything, to make clear that you were definitely not happy with this —, but Zeke had already turned around and left the room.
Still too perplexed by the situation, you stared at the TV in front of you, hoping the device would miraculously give you an answer on what to do. Of course, such thing didn't occur, so you grabbed your phone instead and sent Eren a message, telling him to get his ass home now.
A few moments later, the front door's lock clicked open and a sweaty Eren came to the living room. Relieved by his appearance, you got up from the couch and went to greet him.
"You could have told me the correct time instead of making me wait here with your weird brother for an hour!" You playfully boxed his shoulder, yet your words were genuine.
Eren shot you a puzzled look. "As much as I'm happy to see you, I have no clue why you're here." Now it was your turn to be confused. "I didn't ask you to come over today. In fact, I forgot my phone, so I couldn't have texted you."
„This can't be, look, I've got a text from you that clearly said-" as you showed him the chat, a sense of dread began forming in your stomach, heavy like a stone.
Realisation hit you hard. Eren couldn't have written that message, but someone else, who had been home the whole time, definitely could.
You wouldn't come back to Eren's place again.

Platonic!Yandere!Izana with his child
Request of Anon: Hi! Thank you so much for answering my question! I just wanted to make sure before sending in a request. Would it be okay if I request headcanons for yandere!Izana having a daughter maybe around the age of 8? How does he show his love and care? Does he even love his daughter how a father should? Any overprotective actions? Also would je chose his daughter over her mother? (Although the mother isn’t that important. I’m just interested in his motives and if he genuinely would love his daughter) And could we (the reader) be in the daughters pov please? :>
I'll be honest with you. I had to think your request through for a good while. Even now I´m not so sure, if I really have grasped the character of Izana in this scenario. Also I decided to write it mainly gender neutral, because his behaviour wouldn´t really change for a son or a daughter. Both would be his pretty little precious angel. I´m sorry if this is shorter than expected!
Izana will try to be the picture perfect papa for his little darling → he knows how much it hurt to get left behind by his mother, his father was never part of the picture to begin with
What his little angel wants, his little angel will get
Doting and overprotective. Forget playing outside, there is everything you would need right here, where papa can still have an eye on his little darling
He hounds his child, never far away. Every small cry immediately draws his attention. His child will never have to beg to get his affection
Don´t mistake his words and actions, while he is overly protective and territorial with his child, it doesn´t mean his emotions aren´t entirely platonic.
Because he will always stay around his kid and is in the habit of not trusting them around other people, his darling will be unable to make any friends, though Uncle Kakucho is always fun to play with
„Papa!“ More a demand, than anything else, but one that always came easy to you. Quickly soft footsteps came over, and before you knew better, you were already on level with soft purple eyes. He always did that, when you called him. With a satisfied sigh, you grabbed around his neck to pull yourself closer, as he lifted you slightly to make it easier for you.
„What does my angel want?“ It was murmured softly into your hair. His breath tickling you, and you giggled lightly, as you pushed his face away from yours. Hiding your face in the crook of his neck you said nothing. At least for the moment.
You could hear his sigh. But he said nothing, and simply carried you with him, as he went back to his desk. You could hear the quiet shuffling of paper and knew that your Uncle Kakucho was back again to help your Papa again with his work.
Slightly lifting you head you could see his gentle smile, and you just waved at him. His scar and pale eye as familiar to you, as your fathers soft silver hair, and empty smile.
Papa sat down with a slight grunt again, settling himself down, before letting you slip properly into his lap. His arms still pulled you tightly towards him. You knew, he would hold you as long as you wanted. Never urging you to let him go before you were ready. If an emergency arose, he would either sent your Uncle Kakucho or put you into his care, making sure you were alright, before dealing with it himself.
The silence was growing between the three of you, as you still tried to find your words. It was hard to figure out, how you could say it. In the end you settled on something simple.
„When does Mammy come back home?“
Your father was quiet. In moments he grew as still as a statue. The noise of Uncle Kakucho working stopped as well. He was also holding himself impossible still. You never knew, that people could look like that.
You waited for one of them to say something. Fidgeting the whole time. Your eyes nervously jumped around the room. Never settling any where for longer than a few seconds. From your toys spread throughout the living room. Towards the books your mammy always liked to read, while your papa played with you. To the dining table full of papers. Your mama hated it, when papa worked here. She was always scolding him.
She seemed sad, the last time you saw her. You knew, that your Mama never quite liked you. Maybe it was because you reminded her too much of Papa. While she never pushed you away, when you wanted to hug her. She also never approached you first, like Papa did. Her whole face also never lit up, when she saw you. Her smile was so tense. Nothing like the easy smile that Uncle Kakucho tended to have.
Though the last time you saw her, she kept you in her lap the entire night. Whispering lullabysto you, while carding her hand through your hair. You never knew she could be like that. You always knew your mama was beautiful, but in that moment she seemed like an angel. She had big watery eyes, and you don´t know why she apologized to you that night. But she stayed till you felt asleep. The next morning she was gone.
You still missed her.
They were still quiet, and so you urgently pulled on your Papas hair to get his attention. He flinched slightly, obviously having been lost in thought. He gently pulled your hand away from his hair. Not caring, that you accidentally pulled a few strands loose. He was holding your hand, gently stroking the back of it with his thumb.
„Your Mammy...“, he trailed off. A pinched expression on his face. His eyes flicked over to Uncle Kakucho.
„Your Mother, my darling, she had to leave...“
„Why?“
And wasn´t that the question. Your papa looked uncomfortable. He was pulling a face, and seemed to try to look at anything but you.
„I don´t know. Not where she went. Or why.“
Your Papas grip suddenly seemed tighter. He curled around you. Pressing you even closer to his chest, and slightly lifting his legs. Right now, he seemed to be able to completely surround you. His violent violet eyes staring at yours. A slow smile creeping over his face. For one moment, it was more of a snarl, than a smile.
He gently cupped your face, in his hands. „But never worry! Papa will always be right here...“ His voice bright. He sounded like he always did. A strange melody to his voice. You never heard anyone else talk with a sound like this.
You cuddled back into your papa, as a gentle kiss was pressed to top of your head. Uncle Kakucho had started to work again, after shooting you a quick smile. Your papa was humming something under his breath, as he rocked the both of you gently from side to side.
As you were falling asleep, you could hear them talking again. Voices soft as if not to disturb you. Your questions answered you could fall asleep peacefully.
Your papa was truly the best.

Denial Journal: February 22nd
edging is better than cumming. at least, it is for me! i love being able to play for a really long time, and feeling so good and sensitive the whole time! i love getting stupidly wet and throbbing hard, and feeling my little dick twitch every time i get close! its all so wonderful!
its been seven days since my last orgasm. according to my last poll, in order to earn my next one, i'll have to, um. hold my pee until it comes out on its own. while fully dressed. oh boy... luckily, i SHOULD have some privacy tonight, but, like. im not ready to cum yet. its only been a week after all!
i know earlier this week, i was suuuper desperate to cum. but like, i think thats just because i had JUST cum, yknow? if i have one orgasm, my body expects more. its greedy like that.
so, obviously, i should only let myself have an orgasm if i dont mind fighting the urge to cum again for a few days. no big deal! im trying to keep the number of orgasms i have this year lower than last year - hopefully less than 150. all id have to do to hit that goal is cum every three days or more! and since we're already 50 days in, and ive only used up 7 orgasms... im right on track!
i had a fun idea, though... spending a month where i edge myself EVERY time before i pee, and then make myself cum while peeing or right after i finish. and hopefully, by the end of the month, my brain will be hard-wired to think peeing feels orgasmic! if i stopped letting myself cum, then just peeing on its own might be enough to make me desperate to touch myself.
the obvious downside to that is that, like... if im peeing three times a day for a month, thats 90 orgasms gone right there. that'd mean i could only cum, like, once a week for the rest of the year!!
... is that really a downside, though...? maybe i'll just see how long i can hold in my cum to make it easier on myself...

about the 10/19 update:
reminder: criticism is okay but do not be hateful, or send PB or anyone hate.
so, apparently a lot of players are really mad right now. the CN players pointed out PB's lack of transparency in their emergency maintenance notice. they pointed out that they were reducing store benefits while increasing exchange prices. to some players, they feel like PB is turning WHB into a cash cow.
additionally, allegedly some people have lost money from the shop passes where if you had previously made a purchase, you would have to pay again since PB had made adjustments to the rewards 😭 also they've also hidden the old levelling reward in shop passes according to this tweet. overall, it's super confusing so i'll just leave this topic as it is.
honestly, i do understand that PB needs to earn money to pay their employees but i think the way they package their bundles and paid gems are terrible and just doesn't seem to be worth the money.
for their 113+7 gems pack i can't even afford 1 lesser key, whereas for around the same amount of money i can spend it on arknights's monthly card which gives 11 pulls or genshin's welkin pass which gives 16 pulls.
so i just come to the simple conclusion that i'm going to stay f2p. it's just not worth it if i can spend it on a different game and get more. it's not a big deal for me as long as banners eventually get rerun ahahah
some were also upset about no maintenance compensation which i think is fair because the maintenance would usually have some sort of compensation in exchange for their player base not being able to play/grind during that time period. i feel like PB could have gave guilty gems, lesser keys, or solomon's tears. or even gold/books or jelly or any of the upgrade materials that is difficult to farm for right now. or even pies which is even more difficult to collect than tears atm.
there should also be compensation for those who have lost their money through this update :')
there were also some criticism regarding how they "fixed" the store instead of the bugs. not only that but more bugs appeared such as some units are now unable to be deployed after the update or how the secret shop's vortex will appear every time you log in but the shop itself never appears.
the more common topic at hand is the solomon tears. some players have argued that this is what you're supposed to expect when you are an f2p player. however, i would like to also argue that it shouldn't take months to fully max a single character— which includes promotion, skills (2 for most, 3 for L-tiers) and unholy board (for L-tiers).
reminder that this game is eventually going to have 80 casts (or more if they add the angels and humans like obey me has done) in the future. that is a lot of characters and they will each have different copies and versions of each of them in the future too.
using arknights as an example, that game is farmable for f2p players like myself. i never spent money on arknights but i was able to upgrade multiple characters much faster which is good for tower defense games where you need to strategise with different characters. albeit WHB is easier in that aspect of strategy, it still doesn't change how it is definitely a little more challenging in WHB to build characters.
though, i can also go on the other side and argue that perhaps PB didn't mean for us to speedrun the content either.
i'm personally okay with grinding and being patient as long as the event stages are reasonable and can be cleared without very high difficulties.
also i'm also personally okay if their gacha banners have a reasonable pacing and pity system. since that is my personal main concern as a gacha addict :p
though, seeing all the others' feedbacks also kind of influenced me a bit and made me skeptical of PB. this single update kind of made me look at them in a different light and not the positive kind 😅
but!! they still have another update on 10/25 so i guess we'll just have to see how that one goes. maybe there will be improvements? who knows. i'm just praying for the better because i do enjoy this game so far and want it to do well in the future too 🙏
reminder: again, it's okay to criticise and give feedback but please do not be malicious and hateful 🙇‍♀️

"𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞" || 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐟𝐨𝐲 𝐗 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫
Tumblr media
Genre: Fluff
Synopsis: Reader challenges Draco to a game of Wizard Chess, and whoever loses has to do anything the other wants. Only it goes wrong on several levels. 
A/N: Reader is a muggleborn, and Draco gets embarrassed easily. Also, my first one-shot on here! You should totally request something and follow me! Also, I suck at chess, and I'm not proofreading this, so be warned.
Tumblr media
"God, you're annoying."
  "I know!"
  "No, like seriously. I think you're some sort of hell spawn here to personally torture me. I don't know what I did to do deserve this kind of treatment. My life would be better if you were gone from it, honestly." 
  "It would!"
  There was a brief silence between the two of you. Draco stared at you, his eye twitching slightly at your simple responses to his insults. 
  "Are you only speaking in two words to piss me off?"
  "I am!"
  "Why do I even entertain you?" The blonde asked himself with a long sigh. 
  "Because you looooove me?" You suggested with a playful smirk. 
  "Over my dead body," he shot back in an instant, causing you to pretend to be wounded. 
  "You're so melodramatic, Draco," you say with a sigh before you smile again, an evil plot forming in your mind, "I'd say you're entertaining me because you want a rematch? Maybe I did get lucky that time at wizard chess!" 
  A look of intrigue crossed Draco's face as he contemplated his choices. If he'd said yes, he'd have to deal with your annoying voice taunting him for another 15 minutes. But if he said no, he'd probably look like a loser. Plus, he really did want to win against you. With a huff, he sat back down at the table as you pulled out the board and set up the pieces. 
  "Fine, we'll play again. Only if I'm black this time. You took my lucky color last time," he said as he shot a glare at you.
  "Fine by me!" You replied as you leaned your head against your hand and watched the pieces come to life. 
  Chess had always been something you were gifted at as a child. You used to beat old people at it in the park all the time when you were little. So when you discovered wizard chess was a thing, you knew you'd had to try it out right away! And to your surprise, it was exactly the same as muggle chess, even easier! You just say the position you want the chess pieces to go to, and they do it themselves! You actually found it a bit excessive at first, but it was fun to watch the pieces destroy each other. 
  The only one who didn't believe that you could be good at Wizard Chess was Draco. 
  Whatever variant of chess that you played must've been much more simple than the wizard version of it. That was his thought process until you challenged him to a game. And when he lost, you had found out just how much of a sore loser he could really be. 
  "I'll let you go first," you said with a smile as you watched him intently. 
  He stared back at you and then eyed the board suspiciously, checking to make sure you hadn't done anything to cheat. You hadn't. You really didn't know how you were supposed to cheat at chess anyway. 
  "...Pawn to E5," he said eventually, and you watched as the chess piece moved to its respective places. 
  "Pawn to E4. Say, Draco. Why don't we make this game more interesting?" You say with a smirk. 
  Draco doesn't answer you immediately and considers his next move. 
  "Knight to F6. What do you mean by interesting?" He asked, finally looking up at you. 
  "Bishop to C4. The loser has to do whatever the winner wants!" 
  "How original," he says as he rolls his eyes, "Bishop to B4. And what would I have to do if you managed to win? Not that you are or anything."
  "Hmmmm. How about if you win, I get a kiss from you!" You say cheerfully as you watch Draco's face turn red before you continue, "Pawn to F4!"
  "What?! As if. I wouldn't be caught dead kissing a mud-" He paused when he saw the expression on your face, "ahem muggleborn." 
  Draco had to be careful with the derogatory words he used around you. Although the two of you didn't necessarily respect each other, Draco learned better than to use the word "mudblood" around you. Not after you pushed him to the ground and kicked him repeatedly after he screamed it at you during your second year. After that brutish action, you had earned the bare minimum of respect from him. Even if you were desperately trying to earn more from him. 
  "And if I win, you have to read aloud that diary entry I found last year. In front of everyone at lunch tomorrow," he said with a smug smirk on his face as you quickly averted your gaze. 
  "Ugh- I was really hoping you'd forget that one," she said with a sigh. 
  "How could I? I'd never imagine someone would think of a professor in that way-"
  "OKAY, OKAY! You don't have to mention it anymore. Just make your move already!"
  "If you insist. Bishop to C3," he said smugly as he watched the Bishop piece destroy your knight piece in a dramatic motion, "Looks like I can look forward to hearing that entry." 
  "You are the worst, Malfoy."
  "As to you, L/N."
  A few moves pass, and soon, you're both analyzing the game. Draco wasn't a bad player in any way. You were just naturally better. But this time, he did pose a bit of a challenge. He had become better at predicting your moves. How cute, you thought. He must've been practicing just for you. You smirk to yourself as you watch him, frustrated at what move to play next. 
  "Pawn to E4," he said, destroying the Pawn you had originally placed there. 
  "Hm.. I don't like having to think too hard when I play. Guess I'll have to end this game quickly," you say. 
  "You mean by losing?" He asked with a smirk on his face. 
  "Maybe! Knight to E5!" You said as you both watched the knight destroy the pawn he had just placed. 
  Draco went silent in thought, contemplating his next move. If he didn't move a piece to protect his king, you'd be sure to win. But how were you to make him oversee that obvious possibility? You tensed up a bit, realizing that your time is limited by a few seconds. It felt like life and death, knowing that diary entry was on the line. So you acted quickly. 
  "Hey Draco," you said abruptly. 
  "What is it?" He asked, slightly annoyed that his concentration was interrupted. 
  "You have very pretty eyes," you replied. 
  Draco looked up at you, confused as to why you said something like that randomly. Before he could respond, you reached your arm over the table and gently brushed your thumb against his eyelash, causing him to instinctively close that eye. 
  "And you have long lashes too. I'm jealous," you say with a smirk. 
  You could feel the heat rush to his face as he began to turn red again.
  "What're you playing at-"
  "Oh, Draco!" You say, pretending to be surprised as you pull back your hand, "It's your move." 
  Draco stared at you in confusion for a second before he cleared his throat and adjusted his collar to compose himself again. 
  "Right uhh- Pawn to H6-" He said dismissively.
  A grin spread on your face. It had worked. 
  "Queen to C6. That's a checkmate," you say triumphantly as Draco does a double take and looks at you in disbelief. 
  "What- How?! You- You tricked me!" He exclaimed as he was both embarrassed and also had his pride wounded. 
  "Perhaps I did! But it was your own fault that you didn't see it was a trick. Maybe you're so smitten with me that you were thinking about me while you made that move?" You teased with a smug smile. 
  "I did not!! I should've won then, it's not fair if you cheated!" He said indignantly as he glared at you. 
  "It's not cheating if you let yourself get distracted, though, is it? So you have no one but yourself to blame!"
  "You're the absolute worst, Y/N," he grumbled. 
  "I won't deny that. But it sounds like you're ready for your punishment. Last chance to eat a mint," you say with a smile as you stand up and walk towards him. 
  He looks up at you with wide eyes as he suddenly remembers the penalty of him losing. The blush on his face appears again as he averts his eyes from you and nervously tugs at his collar. 
  "You really- Fine, let's just get this over with. And don't say anything to anyone about this," he says as he glares up at you. 
  "Don't worry, both our lips will be sealed," you say with a smirk as your hand reaches down to hold the side of his face. 
  You swear you could feel his fast heartbeat through his skin as you lean down towards him. Draco gulps and closes his eyes, accepting his fate and leaning closer to your face. Your lips are only an inch apart before you smirk and blow into his face. He jumps and opens his eyes, looking at you shocked. 
  "What was that for?!" He asked, confused, as you pulled away. 
  "I don't know, I felt a bit bad taking away your first kiss like that," you say as you giggle at his reaction.
  "What?! No, you're not my- Ugh, never mind! So you did all of that just to act like you're going to kiss me and not do it?"
  "I suppose so!"
  "But I lost! That was my punishment-"
  "And I didn't punish you! Shouldn't you be grateful? 
  "No- That's not fair-"
  "It almost sounds as if you wanted me to kiss you, Draco-"
  Before you could say anything else, Draco had stood up and was already walking towards you. Suddenly your face was in his hands as he closed his eyes once more and kissed you. 
  He was gentle with it, and he was nervous, too. It was almost like it actually was his first kiss. Although you didn't know for sure, you were still pleasantly surprised. You wrap your arms around his neck and gently kiss him back. It was soft and sweet, and it was probably one of the best kiss you had ever had. It lasted for another minute until you finally pulled away. 
  When you did, it seemed as if Draco finally understood what he did exactly. His face was completely red as he processed everything. He took a step back as he looked at you and then at the ground. 
"I'm never playing wizard chess again," he said blankly as he began to walk away at a fast pace. 
  "This never happened, Y/N. Don't you tell anyone or I'll- I'll-"
  "Kiss me again?" You asked with a smile. 
  Draco looked back at you with both frustration and embarrassment, struggling to come up with a last-minute insult. 
  "Y'know what? Maybe!" He shouted before he stormed off. 
  You let out a laugh as you looked back at the chessboard. You smiled as you picked up the queen and held it up. Maybe next time you'd let him win. After all, you knew he'd be back for another round sooner or later.

may I request a yan!porrim concept?
Of course :) Here's my general thoughts on a Yandere Porrim! Tackles primarily Flushed feelings to make things easier for me. Hope this turned out okay for you ^^
Yandere! Porrim Maryam Concept
Pairing: Matesprit ❤️
Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Obsession, Stalking, Mentions of flings, Manipulation, Jealousy, Fear of Cheating, Mentions of potential cheating, Dubious/Forced relationship.
Tumblr media
Porrim is usually used to flings when it comes to red and black romance.
For the sake of this I'll focus on more flushed feelings.
Porrim's obsession may actually start as a fling compared to most yanderes.
It could start like any yandere obsession but this would be more unique compared to most concepts.
I feel this would be a way more "promiscuous" characters would gain a darling, as that is what Porrim canonically is.
Maybe how it goes is you're a past fling of Porrim that she begins to think more about after a few others.
It's that or you can meet her in a different way.
Perhaps you're truly the one for her... and she should go back for you?
Unfortunately that may mean she's cheated on you in the past... playing with your emotions and making you feel hurt.
Porrim is a very caring and motherly yandere despite her tendency to switch out quadrant partners.
She's also interested in fashion and would be one to make clothing and outfits for you as gifts to show she cares.
Porrim is incredibly flirtatious.
She'd flirt with you playfully, asking you to be her Matesprit and keep her company.
Often with a wink or blowing a kiss from afar... Porrim makes her attraction to you known.
Porrim may also find it cute to make you jealous.
If she notices you like her, even a little, she'll make you crave her by flirting with others.
It's not often... usually if she feels neglected by her darling.
Finding you as her red love may actually turn her off to flings.
She doesn't like the idea of losing you even if playing with your emotions is cute.
She genuinely cares for you and doesn't want to break you or anything.
So if she does hurt your feelings, she apologizes to you with a kiss and a gift.
Porrim would hate it if you wore anything but the clothing she made for you.
Each outfit is made to the taste of you and her.
She even decorates it in her blood color... perhaps even hiding her sign on there to show she takes claim to you.
It's hypocritical considering her past, but the more she grows attached... she promises she'll commit more.
Porrim may have a tendency to baby her darling.
She'd coddle you, complimenting you in her outfits and telling you how much she adores you.
It's easy to see why Kankri gets annoyed with her at times.
Porrim wouldn't like it if you left her side.
In a way it's because she fears others will flirt with you due to her past.
Essentially, Porrim goes from the occasional fling type of troll to a possessive partner when she falls for you fully.
She changes herself as she realizes she only ever really needed you in her flushed quadrant.
She even shows her claim to you with the clothes she makes.
Overall she'd be a motherly/caring yandere who grows tired of flings... instead growing possessive over you as her partner.
If you still feel like she's cheated on you or hate that she's hurt you... she understands.
She'll just have to make it up to you.
Just relax... she won't hurt you anymore.
In fact, all she wants to do is care for you now... she won't have anyone hurt you ever again, even herself.

You know how I was talking about finding a better way to get Factorio screenshots? I didn't. Well, I found a mod, but I couldn't figure out how it worked, so I just stitched together some screenshots again. Nine this time. Five or six to show a more complete picture of the base, three or four to fill in the corners and gaps. And I still wound up with some spots that were covered by UI elements or map mode artifacts in all of those screenshots.
Tumblr media
Actual additions to the factory were pretty minimal—partly because I only played one session between last snapshot and this one, mostly because of the limitations I'm starting to run into. The most pressing one probably being my dwindling iron mine. Stone's running out even faster, but iron is used in a lot of other things. And it's been a while since I checked on coal, which might be struggling since I just doubled power production. (Copper is fine. I haven't even bothered to cover the whole deposit with mines.)
Anyways, those additions are mostly advanced oil stuff and producing a few intermediate products that could be turned into a variety of things, but are currently being turned into laser turrets. I didn't even remember to stick a chest next to the battery production for handcrafting personal equipment or bots or whatever.
I'm building the laser turrets because they're an easy way to throw up some easy defenses that I don't have to reload. This is important because this dinky base is producing a lot of pollution, which is attracting a lot of biters, which I should probably do something about sooner or later. I wiped out a couple of bases right next to my oil outpost (not depicted here); turret creep made it a lot quicker and easier.
Maybe I'll do a more thorough extermination campaign next session. I probably should, the biters and spitters are starting to destroy outlying belts and stuff...but I want to build the factory more than I want to kill bugs. And there's a nice iron deposit due south of my base that would boost my production pretty nicely.
I should probably stop researching, except maybe bullet damage and mining productivity and the like. (I'm pretty sure I've maxed out mining productivity at this tech level, but you know what I mean. Useful numerical bonuses.) I've already researched most or all of the new buildings available with blue science, but I won't have a chance to make any of them until I solve some of the other problems. And if I stop researching, I'll stop making science, which is most of my starter base's production, so my pollution should go way down.
I think I'm starting to remember/suspect why my previous playthroughs stalled out around blue science. Even if my base was better-organized (as most of my prior attempts were), there's a lot to do and it's all interdependent on each other.
P.S. Yeah, I do have a train whose whole purpose is moving some stone bricks up a few chunks. Got a problem with that?

David and Ryder have had so many new experiences that they urgently need to process them. Time for a coffee together and a private chat.😏
--
Just a cup of coffee ☕
David and Ryder had made themselves comfortable on the grey leather sofa, the smell of fresh coffee mingling with the smoke from Ryder's cigarette. He was leaning on David's shoulder, the smoke swaying in psychedelic waves with the movements of his hand that accompanied his report. "Then I kind of snapped. I was sort of lost somewhere, and then I got way too rough. I'm sure I hurt him and felt so guilty. Why didn't this ever happen with you and me? It was so much easier between us."
Holding the hot coffee in one hand and resting the other on Ryder's shoulder, David gave him an understanding smile. "Because we knew our weaknesses and there was no pressure between us. No high demands to be the perfect partner for each other. We just had fun. That is more difficult in a relationship."
"So it's also different for you with Ric? I always get the feeling that the two of you manage the emotional stuff, including sex, more easily." Curious, he tilted his head back to see David's reaction.
"Maybe we're just practising more," he laughed. "I don't think it's as hard for me to let go of the reins as it is for you. Of course I was scared a lot at first, but I just trusted him. Which doesn't mean it's not complicated sometimes"
"It's complicated with you? Really?" He took a deep breath and sat up so as not to miss anything. "Tell me, I want to know everything."
The sudden attention on his face and the curiosity with which he looked at him brought a slight blush to David's cheeks. "OK, I can't get out of it now anyway. I like to play, but I've realised I can't stand my own games. I tied him to the back of the sofa here. It was a good day, I felt free, so I just did it. It was so much fun, we both enjoyed it."
"You did that? I didn't even know you had that kink, fascinating. That sounds like a 'but' though." He extinguished the cigarette and replaced it with his cup that was waiting on the table.
"Yes, there is one. Afterwards it occurred to me that he might have the idea that it's okay to change roles. For days I panicked that he might try it. I avoided him, even slept here alone again. But of course he realised something was wrong and confronted me." David held the cup in both hands, trying to hold back the tears that the reminder of that moment brought.
"You told him?"
"Yes. With lots of tears and shaking hands." The reddened eyes found Ryder's gaze with a caring smile. "It hurts sometimes to open up like this, but it helps. It helps him to understand me and it helps me to trust him more. It wouldn't be any different with you and Chen if you got out of the 'I'll just withdraw and pretend there's no problem' mode."
As if cut off from all strength, Ryder slumped back against the sofa and stared at the ceiling. The coffee sloshed menacingly in his cup. "I don't want to be his problem anymore."
"You're not a problem. You are just as traumatised as I am. He loves you and he should know what's going on inside you."
"He might as well just fuck me until I'm too exhausted to cry."
The deadpan statement made David laugh. "Believe me, you're going to enjoy it more when you don't feel like breaking down anymore. Just like when we were together." He took the cup from his friend's hand, put it back on the table and cuddled up to his chest.
Naturally, Ryders put his arm around his shoulder and squeezed him gently. "Fuck, you're right. What is happening to us, David? We're sitting here talking about the sex in our relationships instead of the best way to hide and survive."
"We still think about that way too much for my liking. It's nice to have alternative topics. And there are others who care about our safety now, it's not just us anymore."
"Still, we can't let our guard down. Vigilance is important."
"You sound like Ric. I'm happy for the little time-outs, I'll leave the extreme paranoia to you," David said with a grin.
Sighing, Ryder tousled his black curls. "Allow little time-outs, now you sound like Chen. We should swap them every now and then."
"Oh that's great, I'll go for a walk with Chen and Spoon and you and Ric can bang your heads together in front of his conspiracy board. Maybe you'll both be more relaxed afterwards and we can all have a nice evening together."
"If you're cooking, I'm in."
"Deal," David said with a grin, sitting up and planting a playful kiss on Ryder's nose.

Lance Stroll (Aston Martin) - Stay Away Part 2
Part 1
Part 3
Part 4
Tumblr media
After Monza, Lando barely let Y/n leave the McLaren garage when they were in Italy. In 2021, Lando knew Lance was way too busy with the new team and the new car so the chances of him going to visit Y/n were pretty slim. Lance and Y/n didn't keep in contact. They were both far too busy so they couldn't. Lance sat in the Aston Martin hospitality, catching up with one of his engineers about what would be happening in the race. He was walking to the garage but instead of the hospitality being right in behind of the garage, it had a criss-cross walk to it. "Why can't the hospitality just be in front of the garage? It would be so much easier-" Lance bumped into someone, making them drop some of their stuff. "Hey, are you alright?" he asked going down to help her. "Lance?"
"Y/n." Lance said breathlessly. Y/n ans Lance shared a look. They looked so different. Y/n's hair was shorter and  Lance was in a green racing suit rather than pink. "Oh wow. Long time no see." She chuckled. "Yeah, yeah it's been a while huh?" he joked. "Oh wow, a tragic haircut though." Lance pulled a face and patted the top of his head. "Really? I thought it suited me." Y/n giggled and looked down at the ground. "To each their own I guess. The green for sure suits you though." Lance rubbed the back of his neck. "Thanks. The short hair suits you too." There was a bit of a silence between the two before Y/n spoke up. "Well, I should probably get going. I have to go to the garage." Y/n began walking away when Lance stood in front of her and stopped her. "Erm, do you maybe wanna meet up after this? Maybe go to the beach or something?" Y/n's eyes lit up at his request. "Absolutely. Is seven okay for you?" she asked. "Perfect. I'll be finished by then." The pair bid their farewells before having to go their seperate ways, but not for long. They had a date to get to.
Lance stood in line waiting for his weight to be taken after the race. He had a pretty good result in P6, something he could be happy with at least. He looked forward at the desk before the driver in front of him turned around and did a double take. "I've been meaning to talk to you!" the McLaren driver said. Lance groaned. Lando. He took his helmet off and smiled at him, a fake, menacing smile almost. "I thought you were told to stay away from my sister?" Lando said through gritted teeth, trying to just smile so nobody would suspect something was wrong. "I did but absence makes the heart grow fonder." Lance grinned, knowing it was winding Lando up. "Look mate, I don't know what you're playing at but that's my sister and I would appreciate it if you would just stay away." Lando was trying to be calm but Lance was seriously testing him. "I understand that, but I havent seen her since Monza last year an di didn't thank her for the drawing she did last time." Lando almost laughed out loud at what Lance said. "Oh please, as if you actually kept it." Lance reached into the inside pocket of his race suit and pulled out a folded up bit of paper, clearly folded and opened many times.
Lance opened it again and showed it proudly to Lando with a smile on his face. "Look familiar?" he asked. Lando snatched the bottom of it, crumpling it slightly. "What are you doing?!" Lance yelled. "Give me the bloody paper!" Lando shouted back. "No! You let go!" The pair bickered over the paper as the other drivers sat watching the argument unfold. "Let go or I'll rip it!" Lando snarled. Lance scoffed. "As if you would!" Lando pulled the paper harshly before a rip could be heard. Lance stared in disbelief at the paper on it. Lando scrumpled up his bit of paper and chucked it on the floor. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" Lance whispered, clearly hurt. "You're not going to be anywhere near my sister again, you won't talk to her, look at her even talk to her." Lance swallowed the lump in his throat before Lando took his weight and turned to leave. "She deserves better than some reckless driver that relies on his fucking father." and with that, Lando left and hit shoulders with Lance for good measure.
Later that evening, while Y/n was leaving to go on her date with Lance, he sat watching her from his window. He kept replaying what Lando had said about him. He honestly thought what he said was true, all of it. He just lay letting the horrid thoughts consume him. He liked her a lot but he couldn't help but think she deserved better. She deserved only the best. She he had to stay away.
Lando was sat on his own bed in his room, mining his business when he heard a knock from his door. He went and to open it. "Y/n?" He saw his sister with mascara trailing down her face, looking upset. "I think he stood me up." Y/n whimpered at Lando's door. Lando put his arms around her and patted her back, listening to her sobs. Lando sat her down on his bed and listened to her talking about the events of that night. She went to the beach like they planned, she waited for almost an hour before she just figured he wasn't coming. She got dressed up, made all that effort for nothing. "All drivers are dick heads. Complete and utter dick heads." Y/n sniffled. Lando chuckled at her statement. "Yeah, I guess we are. Not exactly someone you'd want to date, huh?"
Another knock of the door. Lando sat up to go get the door. "Look, we'll just go get some good and stay in, have to make you feel better." Lando opened the door and his smile dropped once he saw who was standing there, dressed nicely. "Is Y/n here?" Lance asked. "No. She isn't." Lando spat. "Lance?" a small voice broke through the arguing and there stood Y/n with some mascara trailing down her face. "Hey, you weren't at the beach." Lance said, wiping the mascara away when she was right in front of him. "I was, I sat for an hour there." Lando arched a brow and grinned wondering how Lance would get out of this one. "Oh sorry, I forgot to tell you. The team needed to keep me back for a while. So forgetful huh?" Lando tensed up again and clenched his jaw. "So how about we get out of here, yeah?" Lance tapped underneath her chin with his hooked finger, making her smile a bit. "Yeah, just give me a sec. I need to get my stuff." She smiled. "Take all the time you need." Lance said before she disappeared to collect her things. "You've got some nerve coming over here. You're not even staying in this hotel." Lando saï din a hushed voice. "You talk really quiet. Maybe it's because you don't want people figuring out how much of an ass hole you can really be."
"You two okay?" Y/n asked, breaking through the argument. "Of course we are. Ready to go?" Lance smiled, hooking his arm for her to take. "Absolutely." She turned to her brother and smiled. "Bye Lando, I'll see you tomorrow." She waved to her brother before the pair left to go to the beach. Lando shut the door in anger. He grabbed his phone and quickly scrolled through his contacts list. He had to keep Lance away from Y/n. Lando raised the phone to his ear and waited for an answer which he eventually got.
"George? Can you do me a favour mate?"

Hmm...let's see here, seems the analysis of what came about from my changes finally shined through, so let's...oh. Oh...oh, okay, I see what's gone on here...
Trapped in a meeting, trying to focus on what's going on around you...yet you can't realize what's happening with your very being? God, what a beautiful program this is...
Anyways, I think it's time for a few more changes. I do wish to keep things slow and steady, make it harder for the mind to catch onto any changes, but I also cannot risk being stagnant and losing access to such a wonderful program. Hmm...where to start, where to start...
Well...considering how one of your complaints was your fellow employees having a step on you, why don't we make that something more physically measurable? Why don't we fulfill part of that complaint, and make it so you perhaps are closer to even footing with them? Raising your height up to, say, 6'2" should help out with that...an extra half a foot in height should mean you move faster, no?
Hmm, but if you are going up in size all-around, then things need to be kept proportionate. After all, those D cups may look nice on you currently, but at that height, they may seem a bit...small. Growing them to be able to fill out an F cup should make things look better. While I'm at it, though, I really shouldn't leave the bottom half of the hourglass unattended. How about rounding that butt out by a few more inches, and really make people take notice of you?
After all, someone like you must be eager to get people to notice you, yes? To get people to want you, to get people to desire you, to get people's attention? You probably get off on people's attention, on how they look at you, how they sexualize you, fantasize about you. It all must be so hot to you, knowing that there are men and women alike who get themselves off to you.
Of course, that isn't too becoming of an intelligent, all-natural woman, is it? No, in fact, I'd argue that, with how you look, there's less of a need for book smarts than before. You'll still have your job, maybe, probably, but you definitely won't be as smart as before - maybe just one (1) less point in Intelligence again, but you're definitely not Clever, that is for sure.
Instead, that former trait of yours? That can be made into something more basic, something easier to understand. Why not just keep it simple and state it how it is: you are Horny. Always, always horny...never able to escape those depraved, arousing thoughts swirling in that blonde-covered head of yours.
Stay horny for me, Layla. I'll be waiting to see how these changes play out~!
I don't know why I'm tripping over myself walking around the office. I'm oblivious to my new height as adjustments to my height and build apply retroactively.
I notice co-workers looking at me. Something about that is making me unbelievably horny. Even the way guys steal looks at me is getting to me, and I don't even like guys that much!
Work becomes a bit more of a struggle, but I'm starting to focus more on my clothes; maybe if I start showing more skin at work, people will keep staring at me...
Tumblr media
Thank you for continuing the game, mrleedles3!

Hold My Hand Tight
Paranormal Preteens AU: Episode Nineteen
A JSE Fanfic
Forgive me if the title seems unfitting, I almost forgot to queue this so it's super late as I'm titling it and writing this author's note. I'll get straight to the summary. Chase realizes that he made a mistake earlier, and so tries to make up for it by hanging out with Marvin, just the two of them. There's also a brief discussion about what to do about the thing in the school basement, and a scene where JJ gets an unexpected visitor. Enjoy reading :)
More of this AU
++++++++++++++++++++
The school week passed uneventfully, but still, Chase couldn’t help but feel like something was off. And it wasn’t because of the “paperpillar” in the basement. He hadn’t heard anything about that. No strange sounds or sights, and no rumors about a paper monster in the school. No, this was something else.
It took him until Thursday afternoon to realize what it was. He was watching TV in the living room. Schneep was there, too, but he was curled up reading instead of paying attention to the show (he wasn’t into this show.) The commercials had just started, allowing Chase’s mind to wander—and then it hit him. “Oh my god, I’m an idiot,” he whispered.
Schneep looked over at him. “What? Why?”
“I called Marvin ‘weird’ again.” Chase hit his forehead. “Dumb! Dumb dumb dumb! I didn’t mean it like that! I should’ve used a different word!”
“Chase.” Schneep lowered his book and stared at him.
“Don’t sound so disappointed! You didn’t say anything when it happened!”
“I was busy thinking about how Marvin suddenly had powers. And... a-and I should not have to say something every time you make a mistake.”
Chase slumped back against the sofa. “I didn’t mean it like that,” he repeated, mumbling.
“What did you mean it like, then?” Schneep asked.
“I dunno. Uh... strange, but cool. Because it is cool.” Chase shook his head. “I just... I use that word all the time. Everyone does. Even Marvin does, I’ve heard him say it. But I should’ve thought about what happened. And the, uh... the... surroundings. Of the word. There’s a word for that, um... the context. I should’ve thought about the context.”
“And you should have realized what you did before now,” Schneep muttered.
“I know! But we’ve been kinda busy!” Schoolwork was really starting to get intense, which wasn’t fair, because the end-of-term exams were still at least a month away. And besides that, there was, you know, a giant paper caterpillar in the basement of the school. And that weird Circle group, which everyone was convinced was watching them. And that guy who looked like Anti—Jackie had called him Jack McLoughlin. Chase had tried asking around about him, but he was too old for any of the kids in his year to have known. “And I’ll say again, you didn’t say anything, either. And neither did Stacy!”
“Well maybe she thought you would’ve realized on your own much faster,” Schneep pointed out.
Chase sighed, slumping further. “I should’ve.” He paused. “Uh... what do I do now? I should say sorry, right? Or has it been too long?”
“You should say sorry.”
“Yeah.” Another pause. Chase stared blankly at the commercials on TV. Some toy ad was playing. He didn’t really care about it. “But like... I wanna do more than that, too. Cause like... I don’t want Marvin to hate me. Or think I hate him. I want to do something to make up for... um... being a butt.”
Schneep laughed a little. “Maybe you two can do something together. Ah, ‘hang out’ somewhere.”
“You don’t think that’s too much?”
“You just said you wanted to do more than just say sorry. I think hanging out together could be that.” Schneep shrugged. “Marvin might not want to, of course. In which case, you still say sorry. There is nothing to lose in asking. You should not be so, ah, unsure about yourself.”
“...yeah, I guess you’re right.” Chase nodded. “I don’t know what he’d want to do, though. I guess he could choose. That’d be easier, and show that I, uh... wanna hear about stuff he likes to do.”
Schneep grinned. “That seems good to me. We will see everyone tomorrow after school to talk about everything, ja? You can talk to him after all that about this.”
“That’s a good plan. Thanks, Schneep.”
“You are welcome.”
At that moment, Mom walked into the room. She glanced over at the sofa on her way to the kitchen. “Chase, do you want to break your spine? Stop sitting like that.”
Chase groaned. “It’s fine, Mom!” he said, but sat up straight anyway.
Schneep laughed.
++++++++++++++++++++
The whole group had agreed to meet up at Zelly’s on Friday. Mom dropped Chase and Schneep off, promising to pick them up when they texted her. Everyone else was already there. Jackie, Stacy, and of course, the Jacksons. Chase stared at Marvin for a little longer than he probably should have. But Marvin didn’t notice. He was too busy methodically shredding a napkin.
“Hey guys!” Jackie grinned as Chase and Schneep sat down. “We’re probably not gonna have a lot of time. I have to work in like, half an hour. But I think that’ll be long enough.”
“I didn’t know these guys sold hot chocolate,” Stacy said as she read a menu.
“Yeah, they sell it in winter,” Chase said. “Did they put it on the menu already? It’s not that cold.”
I’m going to disagree, JJ said. He was wearing a blue jacket over his normal shirt.
“Well, let us decide what to get and then talk about the past week,” Schneep said.
They decided on their drinks—Jackie, Stacy, and JJ would get hot chocolate while Chase, Schneep, and Marvin stuck with soda. A server came over and they ordered, adding on a couple baskets of fries for the table. As soon as the server was out of sight, Stacy leaned forward. “So, like, how does this work? Do we just start talking about how to deal with the paper thing in the basement right away?”
“The paperpillar,” Marvin said, his eyes brightening a little. “It’s a paperpillar. Paperpillar!” Clearly, he really liked the word and/or the concept of a paperpillar.
“Yeah, that,” Stacy said. “What’re we gonna do about it?”
“Do we need to do anything about it?” Schneep asked. “It has not come up into the school since we saw it. And I have not heard about any trouble.”
“But like... it tried to eat Jackie, sooo...” Chase pointed out.
“It wasn’t eating me, it was just like... wrapping around me,” Jackie said. “It didn’t hurt or anything. And I don’t think something made of paper can ‘eat’ things in the first place.”
Chase has a good point, though, JJ said. It ran at us the moment it saw us. It will probably do the same thing to anyone who goes into the basement.
“Hmm. Yes, you are right.” Schneep nodded. “Even if most people do not go down there, it looked like there was a lot of, ah, maintenance things there. Someone will go in the basement one day to mess with those things. That is how maintenance works.”
“Alright, so we agree we gotta stop it, then,” Jackie said. “How?”
“Uh... we can, like, burn it or something,” Stacy suggested.
“Whoa!” Chase laughed. “I-I didn’t think you’d say that.”
“What? Cause I’m a girl? Girls can burn things down if they wanna.” Stacy pushed her glasses into place. “And if it’s made of paper, fire is probably the best thing to use. Have you ever seen paper burn? It goes up immediately.”
JJ nodded. We can find lighters easily enough. Maybe we could throw one at it. Maybe a couple, just to be sure it will catch—
“Maybe let’s not set a fire in the school?” Jackie said delicately. “If it spreads to the rest of the building, uh... there’ll be a lot of people in there. So... that’s bad.”
“Oh.” Stacy blinked. “Right.”
Will it spread so easily? JJ wondered.
“Yes,” Jackie emphasized. “If the thing on fire is a big paperpillar that can run really fast, then yes.”
JJ frowned. Probably a bad idea, then.
“There could also be gas things in the basement,” Schneep added.
“Okay, so no fire,” Chase said. “But what do we do, then? We can’t banish it like the ghost, we can’t pop it like the bubble monster, we can’t cut it up like the mushrooms, we can’t... uh... what did we do with the monster dog?”
Marvin, previously rather quiet, straightened. “I was thinking about that, actually. Uh, so, you know, we managed to like, pull all the greenlight out of the monster dog and turn it back to normal, right? Using a bunch of crystals. But, like, uh... I have this now.” He held out his hands, palms up. A tiny ball of green light appeared hovering over each of them. He quickly closed his hands into fists, making the lights disappear, and continued. “Maybe I can just pull the greenlight out of the paperpillar by myself. I mean, if that’s a good idea. Do you guys think it is?”
Chase squirmed in his seat a little, but no one was looking at him to notice.
“Do you think you can do that?” Stacy asked. “I mean, in movies and stuff people always have to learn magic and get better and stuff through practice. Pulling out the greenlight seems hard.”
“I, uh, I have been practicing,” Marvin admitted, sounding a bit embarrassed.
JJ nodded excitedly. He can make shapes!
“Make shapes?” Schneep repeated. He leaned closer, intrigued. “How? Can we see?”
“Oh, uh... s-sure.” Looking uncharacteristically nervous, Marvin cupped his hands together, holding them over the table palms-down. A translucent green golf ball appeared on the table under his hands. Then it shifted to a cube. Then a pyramid. Then a squiggly sort of cylinder. Then Marvin lowered his cupped hands over the shape and it disappeared.
“Cool,” Chase breathed.
Very cool! JJ signed. He can also make glowing stars, like the kind that goes on ceilings, they look so nice at night. And he can make tiny hands and ropes to move and grab stuff.
Marvin laughed. “Y-yeah.”
“Wow.” Jackie grinned. “So, you’re kinda like Green Lantern, then.”
“Who?” Marvin asked.
“He’s a superhero.”
“Oh. Well, I’m a witch.”
“We are getting off topic,” Schneep said, shaking his head. “The point is, do you think you can do that? Pull the greenlight out?”
“Uh... I mean, I don’t think I can really practice that,” Marvin said slowly. “Not without something that has greenlight in it. And the only thing we know about like that right now is the paperpillar. So... we kinda just have to try.”
“If crystals can make greenlight more powerful, maybe we can bring some to try and help you out?” Stacy suggested.
“That’s a great idea!” Jackie said, grinning. “Okay, I think we have a plan. We meet after school one day—oh.” They paused for a moment as the server returned with their fries and drinks. “Thanks.” After everyone had their order, small talk with the server was done, and the server had walked out of earshot, Jackie continued. “We’ll meet after school one day. Go into the basement to find the paperpillar. Most of us will try to distract it as Marvin tries draining the greenlight. If he can’t do it, we’ll run and try again some other day.”
“We’ll need somewhere we can defend, then,” Chase said. “A fort of some kind.”
If we’re doing it after school, maybe we can lure it out of the basement and into one of the classrooms? JJ said. There are sets up in one of the Theatre rooms we can hide behind.
“That sounds perfect,” Stacy said.
“Okay, but before we start talking about more details and stuff, can I ask something?” Chase said. “Has anyone found out anything new about the Circle? Or that Jack guy who looks like Anti?”
A chorus of various ‘no’s rang out around the table. “The same teachers are being weird, but nothing actually happened all week,” Marvin said.
“Maybe they’re not going to do anything,” Stacy said optimistically. “Maybe they’re just going to keep an eye on us to make sure we don’t say anything.”
Schneep frowned. “I do not trust grown-ups like that to not do anything. Just because nothing has happened yet does not mean nothing will happen ever. They are probably just waiting for a good time to... to...” He looked down into his soda glass and went quiet. Chase leaned a bit closer, grabbing his hand and squeezing it. Schneep squeezed back.
“We still have to be careful,” Jackie said. “Try not to go anywhere in school alone. And definitely don’t trust strangers.” He paused. “You also asked about Jack, right, Chase?”
“Mm-hmm.” Chase nodded. “Did you find anything? I didn’t.”
Jackie shrugged. “Got confirmation from some Band kids that Jack moved back to Ireland right after the school year ended. But they didn’t know anything else about where he’d go. One of them knew his parents’ names, I guess... guess I’ll try looking online or in phone books for their names? Gonna be hard covering all of Ireland, though. So it’ll take a while. And for the life of me, I can’t figure out why Anti would look like that guy.”
“Maybe it’s random,” Stacy guessed. “Maybe Anti just started looking like the first person he saw when he came out of the dark place.”
JJ frowned. Maybe. But I think there’s a connection. It’s just not clear why.
“Yeah.” Chase paused. “Well... back to the paperpillar, then.”
The group talked some more, hashing out the specifics, and agreed to try fighting the paperpillar after school that Monday. After that, they talked some more about school. Mostly complaining about tests and homework. JJ and Schneep insisted it wasn’t that bad, while everyone else universally agreed it sucked. Even Stacy, which surprised Chase, since she seemed like the smart type. Jackie did point out that school was important, but he was probably only doing that because he felt like he had to, as the oldest one in the group. After the school discussion, they talked about games and movies and books for a while before it was time for them to all go. Mostly because Jackie’s shift was about to start and it would’ve been awkward for the kids to stay there while he was working.
But, as Schneep suggested, Chase hung back, waiting. When everyone was gone but him and the twins (Schneep agreed to wait outside) he tapped Marvin on the shoulder and said, “Hey. Can I, uh... talk to you?”
Marvin looked at him. Then he looked at JJ. Then back at him. “Yeah. Do you mean alone? Should JJ leave?”
“Uh... I guess not,” Chase said. “I was just wondering if you wanna... hang out? Sometime this weekend? Not like, the whole group, I mean. Just you and me?”
“Um...” Marvin looked confused. “Sure, but why?”
“I wanna hang out with you,” Chase said. “I don’t think I’ve done stuff with just you before. Or, uh, just you,” he added, looking at JJ. “If you and me wanna do something after this, we can.”
JJ smiled a bit. That’d be great, but I don’t think I’d have the time. I have a lot of classwork to do. But you and Marvin can do stuff together. I don’t mind.
“You sure?” Marvin asked.
I’m sure.
“Alright, then.” Marvin looked back at Chase. “What were you thinking?”
Chase shrugged, trying to look casual. “Whatever you want to do.”
Marvin stared at him. “...shit. What do I like to do?”
JJ laughed, seeing the blank look on his twin’s face.
“Oh shut up.” Marvin shoved him. JJ shoved back. The two of them were distracted by a shoving contest for a couple seconds before Marvin suddenly went “Oh!” and looked back at Chase. “I got it. Do you wanna go watch a movie?”
“A movie?” Chase repeated. “Uh, yeah. Sounds fun. The theater’s closed on Sundays so we’ll have to go tomorrow—”
“Oh, not at the big cinema,” Mavin interrupted. “Have you seen the small one on Everson Street? It’s just called ‘Hollewych Motion Picture Cinema.’ It’s kinda old.”
“Uhhh... I think I’ve seen that?” Chase hadn’t really thought much about it, though. It was just part of the background of that street. “You want to go there?”
“Yeah, we go there all the time during school holidays,” Marvin said, gesturing to him and JJ, who nodded. “They don’t usually show new movies that just came out, instead they screen a lot of ones that are already out. Some of them are kinda old, too, but they can do anything that’s on DVD. We can go tomorrow or Sunday, they’re open all the time. And nobody usually goes there so it’s not as crowded. Which is great.”
“Okay. Sure.” Chase nodded slowly. “I don’t know if Mom will let me go see a movie by myself.”
“Why not? Doesn’t she let you go to the library and park and stuff alone?”
“Yeah, but I dunno. Something about a movie seems different. But, uh, maybe if I say Jackie is going too, that’ll work out. He can... watch a different movie. While we watch ours. If he’s cool with that.” Chase glanced towards the kitchen doors. Jackie had disappeared through them a couple minutes ago. “I’ll ask him. Does that work?”
“Yeah, fucking perfect.” Marvin smiled a little. “So... talk to your mom and Jackie about times and stuff. Then call JJ.” JJ waved. “And I’ll pick up.”
“Got it.” Chase nodded. “I’ll see you later, then.”
“See you later.”
And with that, Chase turned and left the restaurant.

Chase was correct; Mom would not let him go to the movies without someone else. When he asked why, she said it would be dark so anything could happen. But she agreed to it when he said Jackei would come. And thankfully, Jackie agreed, too. He picked up Chase Sunday morning, and together the two of them picked up Marvin and drove down to Emerson Street.
This was in the center of the city, where a lot of the older buildings were. Hollewych Motion Picture Cinema sat right on the street. That was a bit weird, since the other theater in town, the Cineworld, was a bit off the street, surrounded by parking lots. Posters were plastered on the sides of its concrete building. There were no posters outside HMPC, only a couple of those signs with the removable letters hanging on the side of the brick building. Marvin, Chase, and Jackie walked up to these signs. They listed the prices for tickets and the movies that were currently playing, times included.
“I brought extra money if you guys need help covering your tickets,” Jackie said.
“No, I got it,” Marvin said. “JJ and I know how much it costs. We use his allowance money for it. I got just enough right here.” He put a hand in his pocket. “But all of this looks boring.”
“Uhhh I wouldn’t mind watching a couple of these,” Chase said. “But, um, yeah. You can choose. I dunno what you’ll want to see if it’s all boring to you, though.”
“Don’t worry. I have a plan.”
There was a ticket booth next to the theater’s entrance. Marvin walked right up to it, leaving Chase and Jackie to follow. A man sat behind the glass in the booth—a boy, really, not that much older than Jackie. He wore a nametag pinned to his shirt that read ‘Nick.’ He wasn’t really paying attention to them, instead reading a thick-looking textbook propped up on the counter. “Hey,” Marvin said.
The guy—Nick quickly closed the textbook. “Hi, what can I do for you toda—Oh hey, Marvin.” He looked at Chase. “Did Jameson get shorter?” Then at Jackie. “Or... taller?”
Marvin grinned. “No, this is my friend Chase, and the beanie boy is my friend Jackie.”
“Oh, nice to meet you two.” He stared at Jackie for a minute. “Aren’t you that kid with the name change?”
Jackie looked a bit nervous, but smiled. “Uh, yeah, that’s me.”
“Alright.” Nick looked back at Marvin. “What can I get for you today?”
“Do you have an empty theater?” Marvin asked. “Your listings are boring.”
Nick laughed. “Yeah, one’s empty right now. What d’you want to play?”
“Can we watch, uh... that bridge movie? The sad one?”
Nick’s eyes widened slightly. “That’s, uh... probably a bit too sad for your friends’ first visit here. Don’t want to make a bad impression.” He laughed again, just to clear the tension. “How about The Princess Bride? Or maybe Narnia? We’ll be getting the sequel to that soon, y’know.”
“Narnia is good,” Marvin said, looking a bit disappointed but getting over it quickly. “Two for that.”
“Um, what’s playing in the theaters next to the empty one?” Jackie asked.
“We have The Godfather and Spider-Man 2.”
“Oh hell yeah. I’ll have a ticket for Spider-Man 2. Can I just walk in?”
“Yep, go ahead. I think it just barely started.” Nick bent over, fiddling with something under the counter, and reappeared with three yellow tickets. Marvin and Jackie paid for their respective tickets and Nick passed them over, along with some change. “Alright, you two head to Theater 2, it’ll be a moment to get it started. Jackie, right? Yours is Theater 3, it’s to the right of 2. Enjoy your movies.”
The three of them said their thanks and headed inside, Marvin in front. The interior of the small theater was done in shades of warm yellows and oranges against contrasting black. There wasn’t much in the main entrance, just a small counter for concessions manned by a woman with curly blond hair. She was also familiar with Marvin, handing him two small bags of buttered popcorn. Chase watched this and wondered how often the twins came here if the staff knew them on sight. Or maybe not many people worked here. Maybe both.
They walked down the one hallway, with Marvin talking as they went. “This style of, uh, interior design is called ‘art deco,’ JJ really likes it, and I can get where he’s coming from but I think I like ‘art nouveau' more, it’s much more swirly while this one is all angles. And here we are!” He stopped in front of a pair of theater doors. 
“You guys have fun,” Jackie said, continuing down the hall. “Text me if anything happens. I’m not gonna silence my phone.” He laughed. “Don’t tell anyone.”
“I won’t!” Chase said. “You have fun too!” And he followed Marvin into the room.
There were only five rows of seats in here, and the screen, while much bigger than any TV Chase had ever seen, was way smaller than regular movie screens. The chairs in here looked a bit old, their red fabric cushions faded, but there was something nice about it. “You gotta sit in the middle,” Marvin said, inching his way into the third row. “That way you’re not too close or too far away. But if there’s a lot of people they always go for the middle, too, so if it’s full, I prefer the back. But it’s not full now.” He sat down in the exact middle of the row. Chase sat next to him, and Marvin passed him one of the popcorn bags. “Cool, huh?”
“Yeah.” Chase nodded. “Um... so... I wanna watch the movie, but I... also want to... talk to you about something.”
Marvin stared at him. He nodded slowly. “Okay. Let’s wait for a bit. Watch the start of the movie.”
“Okay.” Chase nodded back. “Um... I don’t think I’ve ever heard of this one. What’s it about?”
“Oh, you haven’t?! Okay, so...”
Marvin had just enough time to explain the basic plot before the lights dimmed and the film started. Chase tried to relax, but he couldn’t. He was busy mentally preparing what to say. And then... well, he was a bit confused. “I thought you said this was a fantasy movie,” he whispered to Marvin.
“I said that they went into the fantasy world,” Marvin replied in a normal volume. “They have to start in the real world first. You’ll see. The beginning is, like, ‘oh my god,’ but then they go out to the country and find stuff there.” He paused. “Also you don’t have to whisper. It’s just us in here.”
“Riiiight.” Chase nodded, going quiet for a moment and trying to pay attention for a bit. Marvin didn’t have any problem with that. He was immediately sucked into the movie, eyes glued to the screen even as he ate popcorn. Chase almost hated to interrupt him. But he had to. So, when the movie seemed to be slowing down, he spoke up again. “Um... can we talk now?”
Marvin glanced at him. “They’re not even in Narnia yet.”
“Yeah, but... but I-I wanna talk before we get too into it.”
Marvin sighed. “I guess that makes sense.” He put the popcorn bag on the seat next to him and looked at Chase. “What is it?”
“I, uh...” Chase’s mind went blank. He fidgeted with his own popcorn bag for a moment before putting it aside and blurting out, “I’m an idiot.”
“Okay.”
“Wha—You’re not gonna, like, say that I’m not?”
“A lot of people are idiots,” Marvin said. “I’m an idiot. But we’re smart in other ways. I thought you were establishing a rapport.”
“A what?” Chase repeated, confused. “What the heck is that?”
“It’s uh... You know, I don’t actually know how to explain it.”
Chase shook his head. “Well, I wasn’t doing that. I was, um, opening up to something. I’m an idiot because... because I didn’t realize I’d made you upset again. When we figured out you had greenlight powers, I said they were weird. I, uh... i-it took me a while to realize you, uh... got... your feelings hurt.”
“...oh.” Marvin stared at him, then looked back at the movie. “That’s fine.”
“No it’s not!” Chase protested. “I didn’t want to upset you! I... I’m sorry I did. I wasn’t really thinking. I was just... using the same word I always would’ve and didn’t think about the context. I’m really sorry. You’re not weird.”
“Yeah, I am.” Marvin didn’t look back at Chase. “I’m an idiot, but I’m not fucking stupid. I like wearing capes and others don’t. I talk a lot and others don’t. I get upset when the lights in the school are too loud and others don’t. I’m a fucking weirdo, Chase. And you don’t have to pretend I’m not. I know. People think I don’t know, but I do. I mean, I didn’t used to know, like when I was really little, but by now, I’ve figured it out. I’m not normal. I’m weird. Fucking... deal with it.”
“...oh.” Chase wasn’t sure how to respond to that. “I, um... It’s not a bad thing. To, uh... not be normal.”
“People always say that,” Marvin sighed. “But like... even though I don’t get made fun of or anything, the difference feels bad sometimes. Like—like—” He gestured vaguely. “Like, everyone is painting a picture, but my paints are different colors. And I can mix colors and stuff to get something that’s sort of close to what everyone else is using, but it’s not right, and everyone can tell. So, like, fuck it, right? Might as well use my own colors. At least then everyone’s looking at my painting. Even though they like everyone else’s better.”
Chase nodded slowly. “Um... I like your painting, though.”
“Uh... I don’t actually have a painting. It’s a metaphor.”
“No, I know. I know what a metaphor is, I’m okay at English class. And I’m keeping going with this one. I like your painting. I like how you use different colors.”
Marvin finally turned to look at him, surprised. “But... you...” He paused, struggling for words. “You keep... It’s... I’m a magic weirdo, though.” He raised one hand, a little baseball-sized sphere of greenlight forming in his palm.
“I like that you’re a magic weirdo,” Chase explained, grinning. “Look at that! That’s so cool. You can just, like, make stuff. Freaking amazing, bro.”
“And... the cape and stuff?”
“I’m not gonna lie, it was, uh, strange at first, but now I know you and it’s also cool.”
Marvin blinked. “I’m... confused.”
“Uh... how do I say this...” Chase looked up at the ceiling, thinking. “If we talk about it like paintings again, I think... I think a lot of people want their paintings to look just like what everyone else wants to see. Maybe they’re drawing a bowl full of apples, but they wanna draw a bowl full of oranges, but people like apples more than oranges so they don't. For me... I’m looking at what everyone else is painting. A-and I’m trying to do the same thing.”
“Why do you want to make the same thing everyone else is making?” Marvin asked quietly.
Chase shrugged. “I think everyone does. But that’s impossible. Everyone paints differently. Why don’t you want to make the same thing?”
Marvin paused. He shrugged. “It’s hard. And it’s not fun. And it’s not... it’s not me.”
“Yeah.” Chase smiled at him. “And I like that. I like that you’re... that you’re so you all the time. I-I wish I could be as much me as I wanna be. But... when my painting starts looking a bit different than everyone else’s, I get nervous. I-I don’t want people to look at it and think ‘I don’t like that because it’s not like mine.’ So, even if it’s hard and not fun and not me, I try to change it. But you don’t. And I think you’re really... I think you’re really brave and cool for that.”
Marvin blinked. His eyes were looking watery. “I... I-I get nervous, too, you know.”
“Yeah, but you do it anyway, and I don’t. In fact, I...” Chase lowered his head, ashamed. “I get so nervous that I don’t even want my painting to be near different ones sometimes. B-but I shouldn’t want that! It’s not fair and it’s mean and it’s not what I really want. I want to hang our paintings together.” He raised his head again. “I want to keep being friends. Screw what other people think. But I-I might make mistakes sometimes. Because I’m not used to it. So... I’m sorry. I didn’t want to hurt your feelings.”
A moment passed. Marvin looked away. It took Chase a moment to realize he was wiping his face on his cape. When Marvin looked back again, his eyes were red, but clear. “It’s okay,” he said quietly. “I... I want to keep being friends, too. I’m not... good at making them. So, a couple mistakes aren’t gonna make me hate you or anything.” He smiled a bit. “But I think you should’ve said this earlier.”
Chase slumped with relief and smiled back. “Yeah. I know now. But I’m an idiot when it comes to other people’s feelings and stuff. Don’t know how to deal with it.”
“Fuck, I don’t know, either. Let’s just agree to talk about stuff right away in the future. Okay?”
“Okay.”
Marvin smiled wider. He leaned over and bumped his shoulder against Chase’s.
Chase laughed. “Oh, man. I have not been watching the movie at all. What’s even going on?”
“Oh shit, I think we missed the first moment! Alright, it’s okay, I remember what happened. So basically...”
As they grabbed their popcorn again and settled down to finish the movie, Chase felt like a weight was lifted from his chest. Huh. He didn’t even realize that was there.
++++++++++++++++++++
JJ closed the textbook, relieved to finally be done with his history notes. Carefully, he slid the sheets of lined paper into his binder, preparing them to be turned in on Monday. God, he hated taking notes. He was already good at remembering stuff. He didn’t need notes. Especially Cornell notes, ugh. They didn’t help at all! Why was his World History teacher so obsessed with them? Why did he need to prove that he’d done them?
He’d do it anyway, of course. They got graded on their notes. It’d look bad if he skipped them and got a bad grade as a result.
Well... now what?
He sighed, leaning back in the kitchen chair. He wished there was room for a desk in his and Marvin’s bedroom. It’d be nice. Doing his homework in the kitchen wasn’t too annoying, but it did mean Mam and Dad sometimes poked their heads in to ask if he was working. Which... obviously he was. And... obviously they were interrupting him. Obviously.
JJ stood up and put his binder back in his bag. Then he headed out. He could hear the TV playing from the living room. Sounded like one of Granmam’s shows. Maybe after he put his bag back in his room, he’d come back down and sit with her. She didn’t mind it when he was there. 
Sometimes he and Marvin wished that their grandmother could stay with them all year. Everything seemed... somehow better when she was there. But they knew they couldn’t ask her to do that. They were lucky that she stayed with them through Christmas every year. Grandparents didn’t usually do that.
He headed up the stairs. There was more TV noise coming from Mam and Dad’s room (totally wasn’t fair that they got a second, personal TV and he and Marvin didn’t even have a desk) but he ignored that and headed straight to his room. He walked in, turned on the lights, put his bag in its usual place in the corner by the door—
“Hey.”
—and then spun around when hearing the sudden voice.
Anti was sitting on the windowsill. It was narrow, probably a tough place to sit, but Anti could float so it didn’t really matter to him. He grinned when he saw JJ and gave a little wave.
JJ grabbed the nearest thing he could find—one of Marvin’s shoes—and threw it at Anti. It passed right through him and thudded against the window’s glass.
Anti’s grin disappeared. “You really like throwing things, huh? Rude. You’re so... so fucking rude.” Then he giggled, as if amused by his own swearing.
What are you doing here? JJ demanded.
“I still don’t know what you’re saying, but you pointed at me, so you’re probably asking why I’m here.” Anti tilted his head. “Your twin is off doing something right now. With someone else. Did you know about that?”
Confused, JJ nodded. He glanced around the room, wondering if there was something he could use to get Anti out of here. Maybe if he threw enough stuff at him he’d go away. He took a couple steps forward, aiming to get to the dresser.
“You did? And you’re okay with that?”
JJ nodded again. Why wouldn’t he be okay with that?
“What if Marvin stops doing anything with you?” Anti pressed. “Would you be okay with that? Are you scared of him doing stuff by himself?”
JJ frowned. He shook his head.
“You’re not scared of that?” Anti blinked. The ceiling light flickered. “What if he’s scared of that? What if he doesn’t want you to do things without him?”
Marvin wouldn’t be like that, though. The two of them had always been together, and always will be. They’d gone through a lot, told each other things that they’d never told anyone else. JJ isn’t so... insecure... to think that Marvin doing something with Chase means he’ll stop hanging out with JJ. And the same could be said for Marvin, too. Besides, they lived together. They couldn’t ignore each other forever. JJ took a couple steps towards the dresser and shook his head again.
Anti stared at him. His eyes narrowed. He seemed somehow unhappy with JJ’s answers. “What are you scared of?” he whispered. “You don’t ever look scared. You don’t ever look upset at all. But you have to be scared of something. Don’t you?”
JJ raised his shoulders. Something about this conversation was disturbing him. Quickly, he grabbed the nearest item from the dresser and threw it.
The object hit Anti in the chest, right under his neck. “Ow!” Anti gasped, catching the object as it fell. One of Marvin’s crystals. Anti stared at it. He seemed more surprised than hurt. And soon, both those feelings were overtaken by anger. He looked up at JJ, the green in his eyes flaring brighter as the ceiling light flickered wildly. JJ started backing up. “You’re terrible, Jameson Jackson,” Anti growled. “I gave Marvin a nice birthday present. Maybe you’ll get a Christmas present that’s just... as... ni͢c͏e̡.̛”
The light went out for a few seconds. JJ looked up at it. Then he looked back at the window. Though he should have been able to see Anti’s silhouette even in the sudden darkness of the room, he only saw the dark blue square of the window. And then the light turned on again. And his suspicion was confirmed; Anti had disappeared. Marvin’s crystal was on the ledge right where he’d been sitting.
JJ shivered. He walked over and quickly grabbed the crystal—and the shoe he’d thrown first. Then he put them back where he’d found them. And he thought about what Anti meant. If he’d pushed Marvin down the stairs as a ‘present,’ what did he want to do to him? The twin he didn’t like?
...It would be fine, wouldn’t it? JJ would just have to be careful to not go near anything dangerous by himself. He could do that. No need to tell Marvin or any of the others about that. Well, he should probably tell them he saw Anti. But not about the... threat. He didn’t want to worry them. He needed to not worry them. Or anyone. Ever.
JJ headed back downstairs—gripping the bannister tightly—and walked into the living room. As he suspected, Granmam was on the sofa watching one of her ‘shows,’ as she called him. She looked back as he came in. “Hey, lad,” she said, smiling. “Everyt’ing alrigh’? You look a mite pale.”
I’m alright, JJ said.
“Hmm.” Granmam pursed her lips. “Hey, c’mere t’me. Ye want to sit with you granmam for a bit?”
JJ nodded and hurried over. He slid onto the sofa and scooted up next to her. She always smelled a bit like vanilla. It was nice.
“Your brother’s still out?”
He nodded.
“T’ink he’ll want to join in when he gets back?”
Maybe.
Granmam smiled down at him. “Well, I know your parents are up for the night, so we have some time.” She leaned a bit closer and lowered her voice to a conspiratorial whisper. “I love ‘em, but they can be a pair of dryshites sometimes.”
JJ burst into laughter.
Granmam grinned right back. “Not Marvin, o’course, he’s grand. He can come right in if he wants to. For now, let’s have a moment, yea?”
JJ nodded. He leaned his head on her shoulder and stared at the TV. He wasn’t sure what was going on, but that wasn’t really the point of watching shows with Granmam.
Nothing to worry about. No need to worry anyone about anything.
Neither he nor his grandmother saw the shadow walk down the stairs, stare down the hall at them, and then disappear into thin air.

Pancakes Household: Chapter 8, Part 2
In this part Fergus' sleepover continues then Eliza tells Bob about her pregnancy decision. It's a quick Freezer Bunny day and Iggy and Carson catch up after their scout meeting. Contains some sim spice, as usual no pixel private parts are shown.
Tumblr media
For clarity Bob's nickname for Eliza is Jumble, and Eliza's nickname for Bob is Sleek. I'll try to capitalise them when they're being used as names to make any translations easier.
Eliza: Kids! Come eat! Bob left waffles
Drake: Sweet
Fergus: Did Atlas just disappear
Eliza: He left, he’s not coming back
Fergus: OMW mother what did you do
Eliza: Nothing! He was coughing and his mum rang and said she tested positive for Llamaflu and thought he should get home and rest just in case
Kelly: I hope he infected us all, it’s what I would do
Tumblr media
Iggy: Fergus why are your friends so weird
Drake: I’m sure your friends are more weird
Ginger: *whines* just drop a corner, come on, give me a taste of waffle
Iggy: Kelly? Weren’t you just here
Kelly: It’s called a sleepover and if it goes well the watcher will count it as one of needed three gold sleepovers
Iggy: I’m not sure that’s how the watcher works
Kelly: How would you know? Had a conversation with them have you
Iggy: Just about how annoying you are
Tumblr media
Eliza: Ginger? Where are you?
Ginger: *barks happily* 🎵trash, oh glorious TRASH🎶
Eliza: Ginger did you come outside?
Ginger: *barks happily* 🎶Trash I love you, oh trash I do🎵
Eliza: GINGER! We do NOT play in trash! Are you a common stray? No, you are meant to be domesticated. Get your paws OUT
Ginger whines sadly, learning not to play in the trash.
Eliza: There there, it’s okay. You’re still the best girl around here
Tumblr media
Eliza: Lets go give you a bath before Bob decides you smell great in trash scents
Fergus: It’s called- mother, why are you here
Eliza: It is my house, I need good light
Fergus: But this is my sleepover
Eliza: Relax Fergus. I’m nearly done then I’ll leave you three in peace
Drake: Knew we should have done this at my house
Kelly: To bad you were to stupid to book this weekend first
The kids bicker and Eliza once again wonders how any of them call Kelly their friend.
Tumblr media
Drake: I hope Atlas will be better for school
Fergus: The family always get their vaccinations, they’ll be fine
Kelly: Unless they all die
Drake: You don’t seriously think that
Kelly: Maybe they’re getting a visit from Grim right now, he’s going to get us all
Fergus: Oh yeah? Is Grim going to get Anya then?
Kelly: Obviously, Grim means business
Tumblr media
Fergus: I forgot to tell you, I’ve joined the drama club
Drake: Why
Fergus: Just had a whim to try it
Kelly: Yeah I have whims to but they’re normally stuff like, make enemies
Drake: Do you actually have any enemies
Kelly: *sighs* it’s not for lack of trying, believe me
Fergus: Plus look at those two on the TV, they’re our age and they would have made money from this
Tumblr media
Drake: Their parents probably forced them to do it
Kelly: Parents are the worst
Fergus: Make that all adults *titters* I’m an adult and you need to do what I say
Drake: If you don’t you’ll be sent straight to bed
Kelly: With no supper to wither and starve
The three wind themselves up with their impersonations and eventually have to give up on the film after missing what was even happening.
Tumblr media
Fergus: Okay, story time! Come here Ginger, you can help
Drake: Why is your dog half inside your sleeping bag
Fergus: Dogs belong everywhere, don’t question it
Kelly: This better be scary
Fergus: Actually I’m going to tell the tale of a pirate
Drake cheers while Kelly boos. Fergus launches into his adventurous tale anyway. He has fun and the boys can see he’s practicing for drama club already.
Tumblr media
We had some minor game glitches (by minor I mean it took between 1 and 2 hours of mod testing to find the culprit) so if there’s some continuity errors we will all just roll with it.
Bob arrives home happy. He had a stern critic come by the restaurant and rather than bore them with the house staple he decided to make them some comforting mac and cheese. He didn’t lose any job performance, so he calls in a vacation day for tomorrow. He sneaks inside past the sleeping kids and goes to find his wife.
Tumblr media
Eliza: And that is why your only choice can be to invest in the company
Bob: I’m convinced
Eliza: You’re home, finally! Let’s get it on
Bob: Can we talk first
Eliza: Sure. What is it Sleek?
Bob: Have you thought about if we’re going to properly try for another pregnancy
Eliza: *sighs* I have thought about it
Bob: Do we have a verdict
Eliza: Lie back, get comfy, and listen
Bob climbs on the bed and Eliza begins to speak between kisses.
Tumblr media
Eliza: I want another kid with you. I do. But I’m proud of what I’m achieving career wise right now. This next promotion will take a lot of work. If we get pregnant, then we get pregnant and I will love our child, but for now my focus needs to be on upskilling myself
Bob: I think you’re very skilled already
Eliza: *smirks* I can hardly use these skills in the boardroom. But I’ll make you a promise
Bob: I’m listening, I am a captive audience after all
Eliza: If we don’t get pregnant by the time Fergus is a teenager, we can start properly trying again. Will you be okay with that?
Bob: I can be. I love you. I want you to be happy
Eliza: Believe me Bob, right now you are making me very happy and… *chuckles* yes it feels like I’m making you happy to
Tumblr media
The conversation draws to its natural conclusion, woohoo. The next day is Freezer Bunny Day and the slumber party kids wake up pretty early.
Eliza: Have you lot had breakfast already?
Fergus: Of course mother
Eliza: Are you alright Kelly? You don’t look too flash
Kelly: Bloody Atlas must have infected me before he left
Eliza: I think it’s time to head home then. You to Drake
Fergus: Mother what time is the holiday ceremony
Eliza: Not until 10, we have some time
Tumblr media
Bob: I wanted waffles for breakfast
Eliza: You could always make some more
Bob: No point, I’m doomed to be sad
Eliza: Have some of this trout with me, you did a great job with it
Bob: Really?
Eliza: It’s excellent, I promise
The two eat and flirt some more before Eliza gets up to wash the dishes.
Eliza: I can feel you staring at my ass Sleek
Bob: But it’s such a fine ass
Eliza: I’m glad one of us appreciates this unshifting baby weight
Tumblr media
Iggy enters the kitchen and Bob decides to pull Eliza aside to keep talking.
Bob: I’m sorry you’re unhappy with it, but I do love the curves
Eliza: I know you do, I just wished I loved them more. I mean looking at me, who would know I’m fit
Bob: Don’t worry about what other people think, to me you’re the most beautiful sim in the world. Remember what I told you last time you felt like this
Eliza: *sighs* That me being curvy was a sign of love? Love for the food you make and love for the lives I brought into this world
Bob: Exactly. You know I met this stunning girl in university who told me, weight doesn’t equal worth, and it helped me beyond measure
Eliza: She sounds like a catch
Bob: *chuckles* why do you think I married you before some other sim could. Now come on, or we’ll be late
Tumblr media
After the Freezer Bunny Day ceremony Eliza goes to practice her skills and Bob searches for Ginger. She is very dirty so Bob decides the smartest thing to do is wait until after a jog to give her a bath.
Fergus: Did you check the couches
Iggy: Yes, I found a couple. Did you look in the laundry bins
Fergus: I don’t think the Freezer Bunny would put eggs in dirty laundry
Iggy: Yet you said we needed to check the toilets
Fergus: You’ve been pranked!
Iggy: How could it be a prank if I found an egg there
Fergus: *huffs* stupid Freezer Bunny
Tumblr media
Bob: We did the jog, no more avoiding, it’s bath time
Ginger: *whimpers* but I don’t even know how I got dirty
Bob: I’m sorry. If it was up to me you could stay dirty forever. But we need to think of the others in the house, and they don’t enjoy dirty dog smell
Ginger: *whines* but I just had a bath yesterday, infants don’t even get bathed daily
Bob: Guess we’ll do this the hard way then
He scoops up Ginger and carries her to the bathroom, all the while she yaps in protest.
Tumblr media
Bob: See, if we keep the harness on we can clean it at the same time. Eliza had to get me to stop showering with my clothes on, but it saved time so it was hard to convince me not to
Bob places Ginger down and she immediately begins flinging off all the loose water. Bob tries to avoid it but a puddle appears. He decides it will dry by itself. Carrying Ginger in to the lounge he sets her down and switches her into he collar.
Bob: There, clean and fashionable
Tumblr media
Iggy brings Carson with him after scouts. Harvey is going to swing by for dinner and pick him up then. They do the secret scout handshake and reflect on the meeting.
Carson: I can’t believe you found that super rare badge
Iggy: I can’t believe they dropped it. I’m glad the troop leader knew who it belonged to though and was able to get it back to them
Carson: You definitely couldn’t have kept it, the leader would know you didn’t earn it
Tumblr media
Harvey: I saw your wife tuning up the doorbell
Bob: I knew there was probably something I forgot to do
Harvey: Are you looking forward to your birthday tomorrow Iggy?
Iggy: Yes! Though it sucks Carson can’t age up at the same time
Carson: We are technically the same age after all. Promise me you’ll still come to my birthday party when I have it
Iggy: Absolutely!
Tumblr media
Bob: Food everyone! Come and get it!
Iggy: It looks great dad. Mother are you... smoking?
Eliza: I’ll be fine. I just got electrocuted by the doorbell
Bob: Are you sure you’re okay? Maybe you should lie down? With soup!
Eliza: I’ll be fine Bob
Fergus: Wait… if both of you are Llamacorn scouts... why don’t you have matching uniforms?
Iggy: I don't have an answer (and neither does the watcher)
