You never thought you’d see the day something like this could ever happen. Things have always been the same way. You were the “dominant” one and he was the one who was a little bit more unsure about the whole situation, and this no matter how many times you guys found yourself in the throes of passions and desires.
You were always on top no matter what position you found yourselves in. It could be a face off ( 🙂 ), a cowgirl or even during the missionary you are the one who fucked yourself on him. When he ever got on top it was usually - again - nothing more sophisticated than a simple missionary, that he, by the way, would execute almost as if he was scared to bother you.
Today, things felt a little bit different though. Izuku had had an unusual day. First in class he got a lot of good grades, even one higher than Momo. Then during his training, Aizawai paired him with Bakugo and Shoto and he won against both of them during the several fights the professor arranged. Therefore his ego and confidence felt boosted like never before. So tonight, on one of these days you both know you’re going to find the other for some intimate time later, he came with a specific idea in mind.
Everything went smoothly, well until THAT moment came across. When you straddled his lap and grounded on his hardening length. His fingers twitched at his sides for a brief moment, as his face became redder and redder. He wanted to tell you, that just for tonight, at least, he wanted to swap things a bit. But now that you were on him, stimulating his throbbing member like that he didn’t know anymore. Thankfully, you were always attuned to his needs and you felt that shift as soon as your eyes locked. Yes, he was always flustered and a bit awkward during love making but now it felt as if he was holding something back.
“Izuku what are you thinking about, my pretty hero” you asked, never ceasing your movements on his lap.
He swallowed hard as he internally debated if he should voice this little idea of his. But something between your soothing voice calling him your hero and your weight on him made him long for more. He took a deep breath before speaking, his hands started to go in every direction as he said “I-I was wondering if you would like… well it’s fine if you don’t want to, but I wanted to know what it was to erm… until you prefer to keep  things like this. You know with you huhhhh on top…”
you let him continue his ramble a bit longer but after 3 minutes you spoke up “Okay but now try shorter” you kissed his cheek as you finally stopped moving to let him think and express himself properly ( but between us that happens all the time )
“I-I want to… to be in charge. Just for this once- only if you want it too. Your comfort is my top prio-” he was cut by your kiss. It was sweet, full of reassurance and oh so hungry. Gosh you loved to be on top but seeing him in charge is such a turn on. And at this point you’re miles away to know what he means by that ( keep it sweet though it’s Izuku we are talking about )
“I’m okay with it. Just this once and every other time that will follow” you explained, it was a good thing to see him this much at ease with you. So you took the lead and took your clothes off before lying on the bed, thinking he was going to go for a missionary as per usual, when he wanted to be in charge.
Though the green haired boy kept his clothes for a little longer as he continued “N-not like this… I w-want you too-” but he struggled to voice his need - besides he doesn’t know how to call this position. So he gently took your hands and brought you to your knees before gently pushing you down for you to end up on all four “O-okay. A-are you fine like that ? Is it okay ?” he was so cute, always wanting to make sure you were comfortable.
“I’m a little cold” you teased, trying to alleviate the pressure you knew he was experiencing. Soon after he undressed and joined you on the bed, the sounds of the sheets rustling as he shuffled to get behind you.
His hard length nudged against your ass cheek as he found purchase on your hips “T-tell me if it feels uncomfortable at any point. N-now I’m going to- aah” he moaned as the swollen tip of his length pushed past your folds. He almost struggled to enter you without cumming right away “You’re… ugh it’s so tight” he whimpered, surprisingly you felt so much tighter like this than when you were on top or on missionary.
Once he was fully sheathed inside you, you both let out a gasp as if this was the only thing that lacked in your life. Soon enough he started to move. Not making direct eye contact with you allowed him to feel less unsure, besides your moans only proved to him that he was doing things the right way for you. His hips started to slap harder against yours. The room rapidly filled with the news noises of the squelching of your cunt around his cock and the sound of his balls slapping your ass. Gosh he was really about to make you cum like this.
Though he was as close as you and he really wanted you to come first. So he liked his fingers and his hand snaked between your legs as he looked for your clit. Once he found the bundle of nerves he made quick circles, making your hips buck against his hand.
You fucked yourself back against him, this position was on a whole new level compared to your usual habits. He felt a torrent of love for you, his motion never losing any power. He peppered your back with open mouthed kisses, before his teeth found their way to the tender flesh of your shoulder. He just needed to bite on something to keep himself from letting go of everything as he felt your walls tighten around him.
Then as if on cue your orgasm hit you head-on, your legs quivered and if it wasn't for his strong arms to keep you up you would have fallen head first against the mattress. He kept fucking you, but at some point he got overwhelmed, so he gently laid you on the bed, never breaking your connection. Once you were there he pinned you down on the bed and kept going until his length spasmed and spurted hot ropes of cum with each beat of his heart.
He let his body fall on top of you, with his cock still deep inside you that started to soften. His breathing was erratic but it was all worth it.
“breathes in Are you out okay ? in I didn’t out hurt you in right ? out” even after everything he still worried about you.
“That was perfect Izuku” you answered, bringing your arm back to gently play with his hair “You were a great success today… damn I didn’t know you could fuck me like that”
He flushed at your words “T-thank you Y/n... I didn't expect it to turn like that” he said rubbing the back of his head
“I just hope it’s going to be more than this once” you said hoping he would feel comfortable enough to do this again. That’s when he surprised you again “I-if you want… give me about 20 minutes and I’ll gladly c-continue” it sounded more like a question but you knew this didn’t let him indifferent.
“That’s fine by me. Let’s swap” you cheered, making a huge smile spread on his adorable face.

Jerk [Marc Spector x GN!Reader]
Summary: Despite having plans for a date with you after meeting with his ex-wife, Marc seems to have suddenly gone off communication, leaving you to be a bundle of nerves until you decided to call him. Heavily inspired by episode 3 of scenes from a marriage. Word Count: 2k Warnings: Angst with no comfort !!!!!!!!! foul language, Steven cameo (that's a sweet surprise than a warning), no mention of jake A/N: Gosh! I apologize for being super late with this one,, this was meant to be a drabble but i got carried away lol. And I'm a little rusty with writing atm, so don't look at me if the writing feels a lil wonky. though, Constructive Criticism is greatly appreciated! PS; The ex-wife mentioned in this is NOT layla its some other lady because we love layla in this household
REQUESTS ARE OPEN!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The drawn out rings of the phone was slowly aiding to a upcoming migraine as you paced between rooms, silently praying that you would get an answer to your frantic texts. A rather uneventful Friday night that you expected to spend with the person you were recently seeing, an unpredictably mysterious man, had come to an abrupt stop.
There was a lot you didn't know about Marc Spector; and that was okay, because it was just the process of 'getting to know someone' was, right? Sure, You had rambled your head off on the first date, all which he listened carefully; but with Marc, you never felt the need to push information out of him. It was like befriending an fragile animal that takes time to trust, but the epiphany that comes after is unexplainably amazing.
Growing from acquaintances to actually seeing each other and looking forward to spending time as a couple was unrealistic, which was why your entire relationship was so fascinating. The patience of talking things out was a quality that you both shared; likely being the reason of such a bond with each other. If anyone would listen, you would never stop talking about how perplexing that was.
As you both started building a line of trust, You came to learn that he was divorced and was in the process of sorting things out with his ex-lover— which, of course, you were fine with. And today, he had mentioned about her coming over, which you were also on board with. But with the plans that were arranged for today still being overdue and Marc falling off the face of earth, you couldn't help but feel.. jealous? worry, even?
It was exactly why you were frantically texting your boyfriend, questioning on where he was and if his ex-wife had taken her leave. The only response that you received was being left entirely on delivered, adding fuel to your already anxious state. You felt like you were just being extremely clingy— and that they were probably still talking.
Your gaze travelled to the clock. 15 minutes to 1 am. Holy fuck. Had you really been texting him for over an hour? Had it been over two hours since you had set your dinner table, waiting for him? The latest that Marc had promised he would be was by 10:30, so it was just utterly ridiculous that it was past midnight and he was still unresponsive.
Swiftly grabbing the unopened bottle of wine kept on your table and making it to the couch, You set your phone down on the coffee table as you took a swing of the drink. It was crazy how this entire thing had gotten you so riled up, but as much as you hated to admit it, you were head over heels for this guy. So committed infact, that you were desperately checking on him for the past two hours; that you haven't even had your own dinner yet. One last call. Maybe he'll pick up.
That was the words that your guilty conscious prompted while you sat in the uncomfortable silence, eyes falling on the phone that lay discarded on the table. Obviously, you were going to feed into your thoughts. Of course you did.
And much to your surprise, it only took three rings to connect to the voice that you were just waiting to hear— but it didn't take you long to notice that it came off in a growl, much to the contrast of the soft spoken tone that Marc usually carried.
"Marc?" "Hey." You let out a sigh of relief, shaking your head ever so slightly at your own frantic actions. Atleast he was doing okay. "Are you okay? Where have you been? I've been—"
"Good. Uh, yeah, but listen, it's not cool to, like, bombard me with messages."
There was a short pause where you sat slightly bewildered. before you felt yourself sink into the seat, like a child who had just been scolded. Even with guilt creeping up, You wanted to still defend your own case, which was the endless worrying you had endured for the past hour, waiting for anything from Marc. Just a simple notice to cancel their date for the night or even to say that he was okay. But instead, You were simply left in the dark.
"Because you were supposed to call me, Marc."
"I told you, I'd call you when she left." "Oh, so she hasn't gone yet?" "No, She hasn't. She's still here." Sipping from the glass of wine and setting it onto the table nearby, your mind was quick to rush into many conclusions, but you kept your mouth shut. Whatever they had to discuss must have been really important. "Isn't it late? How are you both still talking?" "No, She— She's in bed." An exhale could be heard from the other end, as your brows furrowed. In bed? Marc lived in a single bedroom, so did that mean he was taking the couch? But before you could even question it, it was like the male at the other end had almost read your mind, because he immediately cleared your doubts, Albeit, you would have wished he never said anything. "..My bed." Oh. Feeling betrayed and lost would be an understatement of how you currently felt. Confused even, to some extend as a steady silence began to occupy the call. You weren't quite sure how Marc wanted you to respond to that. Did he want to hear you weep from the other side? Or be upset at him? Maybe even yell a few select choices of words for wasting your time? But instead of any of that, pure silence rang through the call and if it weren't for Marc checking if the call was still running, he would've thought you hung up. "Hello?"
The feeling of being let down was coursing through your veins at this point, making itself obvious with the lump that grew in your throat and how you stiffened up in your seat. You weren't sure what exactly to feel, a floodgate on sadness and anger opening like it was a pent up dam that was released. You sniffled quietly, trying to bite back the tears that were pricking at the corner of your eyes. It was unfair how distraught you felt. Another audible exhale could be heard, before you heard Marc's voice again. You weren't even sure why you felt like crying, but it was clear that this wouldn't end well. "Look, I'm suggesting that we should take a break because this is just not.. Not working out right now." "When did it work out, Marc?" "Wh— What are you talking about?" "I said." You spoke, recollecting yourself in a suspiciously gentle manner. "When were you not trying to use me as a way to move on?"
It was his turn to grow silent, and that was pretty much the answer you needed. To think that you gave him the chance, thinking that maybe this time around you could actually be with someone who cared— There were no other words to describe what you've been this entire time. You were foolish. "Goodnight. Sleep well." You'd be lying if you said that you didn't still want him to come back to you. Justify himself properly. Say that this was all some sick joke. But you were also aware that there was probably nothing that would save this. Still, You stayed when he spoke up again, for whatever reason. "Stop. Just Listen. This doesn't have to be.. what you think it is, I just need time to collect myself and honestly, I've been feeling for a while that—"
The urge to laugh was overbearing, and you didn't hold back. "You're so full of shit, Marc." Anger was finally settling in before the male at the other end could even respond to your words, but this wasn't about being courteous anymore. It felt like if Marc had cared for you even a little, this wouldn't have happened like it did. "Own up to what you're doing, asshole. I know you like to evade your responsibilities but just for once, if you have any respect for me, stand up like a man and say it to my face so I can just accept the fact that I've wasted my time and effort on you."
"Okay, Let me stop you here before you say anything else that you're gonna regret."
"No, fuck you. The only thing I regret is thinking that you actually cared enough to be with me. Turns out, your only concern is keeping yourself occupied and acting like you don't give a shit about everything that leaves you. You're a selfish prick."
"Fine. It's over then."
"Good. Lose my number and Have a good fucking night, Spector." The call was immediately cut, and so was the brightness of the candle that you had lit earlier by the dinner table. The dimness eased your volatile temper, but it bought the dejection and uneasiness that had failed to show up during the call. There was an option for you to cry it all out, but for reason, you didn't. A soft sigh escaped your pursed lips as you rubbed your eyes. Maybe you'd end up bawling your eyes out about this when you were nestled into the cold embrace of your bed.
You didn't even feel hungry anymore; so shoving the pasta that you had cooked hours prior into the fridge and cleaning up, you tried your best not to think of everything that just happened, which was difficult in it's own volition. It was just a few dates, so you were technically the one in the wrong for letting your guard down so easily and falling for a man who barely talked to you. That conclusion stung a little, but it helped you feel better as you picked up your phone and the bottle of wine again— too exhausted to take off the gorgeous outfit you had picked out for the night as you opened tinder; trying to scroll away like you were gonna move on.
On the other side, Marc had made the mistake of pacing through his room as he made the call, biting his cheeks as it reached it's abrupt and upsetting end. Guilt did lace his features, but reminding himself that this was the last he would ever hear from you made the circumstances a little less horrible. Glancing at the phone as his thumb hovered over your contact, He heard a meek voice call out to him. Not that of his ex-wife, but that of Steven's— who had seen everything from the reflection of the mirror that Marc found himself standing before. "Marc.." The reflection called out to him, a clearly disappointed expression lacing his features as he tried to find the words to even begin expressing how regrettable this would be. Steven didn't have to elaborate, though, because in the few seconds that Marc met Steven's concerned eyes, he knew this would just add into the contrition that already plagued his mind.
Marc tore himself away from Steven who made a lowly attempt at trying to reason with him; walking back to where he had just been previously. It was because Steven knew, and so did he, that he found what it felt like to be loved again through you. But he was undeserving of it. With everything he has done and all the secrets that he hid, he only deserved the toxic relation he had with his ex, which atleast kept his needs at bay; a fair trade for all the arguments he had with her. You were right about him being a selfish jerk. Though it was for all for the wrong reasons.

Tumblr media
Making your way down the dimly lit hallway, your eyes were focused on the door at the far end. 'Nelson & Murdock' was no longer a paper sign taped to the door with their name written in Sharpie, but a proper, professional sign adhered to the glass of it. 
After a lot of hard work and frustration over the past few months, Foggy and Matt’s law firm had really managed to take off. It had all been thanks to the pair of them–along with Karen and apparently the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen–taking down Wilson Fisk. You'd watched for months on the sidelines as they struggled and many times almost lost hope that they'd ever succeed with getting Fisk arrested. You'd even endured the time fairly recently where the firm, and Matt and Foggy’s friendship, had briefly broken up. 
Those few weeks had been a very difficult few weeks for all of you. Even Karen had gradually grown closer to you during that time. And both Foggy and Matt had fallen back on you for support when they didn't have each other. You'd done your best to split your free time between the pair of them, but you'd never gotten a straight answer as to what had happened. All you knew was that it must have been bad if Foggy had been willing to end the friendship you'd watch grow over the years. And all Matt would ever tell you was that it was his fault, whatever it was, and to not be mad at Foggy.
The whole thing had seemed strange to you, especially because Matt had just been in a car accident when everything had happened. Your heart had broken when he’d stopped by to see you shortly after; you hadn’t heard the news ahead of time and it was a shock to see him limp into your apartment. Though something had seemed off about his flippant explanation of what happened, especially considering he’d been sporting bruises and cuts more and more frequently this past year. He’d told you they were because he was blind and clumsy and had gotten into a lot of accidents, but you had a feeling that was bullshit even if you never pushed for answers. Because he’d certainly not had that many accidents at Columbia. 
Yet again it hurt you that it felt like Matt was hiding something from you, something you were sure he’d have told you about back when you’d both been in college. You felt like he was drifting even further away from you. And that hurt.
As you came to a stop in front of the office, you knocked twice lightly on the glass of the door. Karen’s voice called out from behind it instantly, telling you to come in. You opened the door and stepped inside, immediately greeted with Karen’s bright smile from her place behind her desk. 
“Hey! Was wondering when you were going to show up,” Karen greeted you as she set aside a folder on her desk.
“I had to finish a few things up at the office before I could actually get out of there,” you told her, making your way over and sitting down in one of the empty chairs in front of her desk. “My boss loves to chat so I was sort of stuck listening to him ramble on about this problem he’d encountered coding–but I won’t bore you with the details. Needless to say, it took me a moment before I could find a way to slip out of the conversation.”
“Well we’re glad you’re here!”
You turned at the voice, spotting Foggy making his way out of his office. He was fiddling with his tie as he came over towards the pair of you, a smile on his face.
“And I hope you’re prepared to fight with Matt about places for takeout,” Foggy added. 
You laughed, adjusting your purse in your lap. “Fog, I’ve known you guys for a while. I already know how picky Matt is about exactly where we get food from.”
“Well he’s grown pickier since Columbia,” Foggy informed you.
"I'm not picky," Matt countered, appearing in the doorway of his office with a frown. "I just know what I like."
Your head turned in the opposite direction, taking in the sight of Matt leaning against the doorframe of his office. He was in a pair of dark dress slacks, his hands on his hips as he focused on Foggy. The sleeves of his white dress shirt were rolled up to just below his elbows, his thick and muscular forearms on display. He’d gotten new glasses recently you noticed–these ones had red lenses. 
"Yeah, that's called picky," Foggy quipped. 
The three of you laughed as a frown crossed Matt’s lips, an irritated huff escaping him. He was clearly not amused. 
"Well I for one am curious to see that billboard at your apartment Foggy told me about," you said, trying to change the subject for him. "I still haven't seen your place and you’ve been there for a bit now."
"Oh, it's obnoxious alright," Karen assured you. When she saw the confused look you gave her she added on, "The billboard, not the apartment."
Something stirred in your chest at her words, a twisting, uncomfortable feeling. Matt was a private person and you knew he didn't let people into his space easily. He’d always been like that. You'd known Foggy had been to his apartment often after Matt had moved out–it was a given considering how close they were–but you hadn't known Karen had been there. Especially when you never had been invited in the almost year since he'd been living there. 
"You've been to Matt's?" Foggy asked, rounding on Karen in surprise.
"Well, yeah," she answered. "Back when you guys took my case? The night the man in the mask saved me?"
You saw Foggy shoot Matt a quick look and you frowned, wondering what that had been about. But then Karen continued on and you weren't expecting what she said next.
"And we uh, did date,” Karen admitted, a blush rising to her cheeks. “Briefly.”
Foggy gasped beside you as your hands tightened on the straps of your purse. Your mouth felt like it had gone dry as you stiffened in the chair. Matt had dated Karen?
“When the hell did that happen?” Foggy exclaimed, his eyes darting back and forth between the pair of them. “How did I not even catch that?”
“It was a little bit ago,” Karen answered.
“For a couple weeks,” Matt added.
Fingernails digging into the faux leather of your purse, you fought the burn of tears in your eyes. He’d dated her? She’d been his friend–and his employee–yet he’d still asked her out? Slept with her? But yet you remained nothing but his friend, one that was steadily drifting away from him?
Would he really give everyone but you a second look?
“Realized we were just better as friends,” Karen said with a shrug.
Her attention landed on you over her desk and you saw the way her blue eyes narrowed curiously at your expression. Her sharp eyes lingered as if she had noticed the change in the way you were acting now since you’d come in. Swallowing hard, you forced a smile back onto your face before you rose from your seat. It was going to be difficult walking back to your place with Karen after this; you found yourself wishing you hadn’t planned that with her this morning. After learning that all you wanted to do was go home and stay there. Maybe cry alone on your couch. You didn’t want to make conversation with Karen right now, and you certainly didn’t want to go to Matt’s and have dinner with everyone. 
What you wanted was to rip your heart out and stop feeling what you felt for Matt once and for all.
“I should probably get back to my place and change if I’m going to be on time later,” you said, voice quivering a bit.
Karen slowly pushed her chair back, rising to her feet and smoothing down her dress. Why did she have to be so beautiful? That only made everything hurt even more right now.
“I’ll come with, like we talked about earlier,” Karen announced.
“Great,” you said stiffly.
You made your way around the chair, your eyes avoiding Matt and Foggy. You knew Foggy was just standing there giving you his usual sympathetic look after the news Karen had just dropped. You really didn’t need to see that look on his face right now. 
“I’ll see you guys later,” you said, eyes focusing on your feet.
You heard Karen’s heels clicking along after you on the floor, both of you making your way towards the exit as Karen said her goodbyes. But the pair of you stopped when Matt spoke up, saying your name. You froze at his voice, your head swiveling nervously towards him. He was still leaning against the doorframe to his office, his brows furrowed behind his dark glasses. His arms were crossed over his chest now as he focused on you.
“Are you alright?” he asked.
Swallowing hard, you wondered how the hell he’d even noticed something was off. It’s not like he could see the look on your face like Karen had. Once again you forced the strained smile back onto your lips as you looked back at him, hoping the smile would somehow show through in your voice.
“Yeah, I just had a rough day at work,” you lied.
Matt’s head tilted to the side at your words, his lips drawing into a thin line. Somehow his brows had dropped even lower behind his glasses, a deep crease forming on his forehead.
“I’ll see you later though, Matty,” you said in a rush.
Picking up your pace, you ducked your head and darted out of the office. Karen sped up behind you in a hurry to catch up.
Tumblr media
The walk back to your place with Karen had been interesting to say the least. You’d practically power-walked the entire way back while she struggled to keep up with you. Every time she asked if you were okay, you only increased your pace. You didn’t want to talk about this with her because you swore she’d seen the look on your face back at the office and had already pieced things together. But when you’d finally gotten to your apartment and she’d followed you inside, you knew you wouldn’t be able to avoid her prying questions. 
“You want to tell me what that was all about?” Karen asked as she closed the door behind herself.
Chewing the inside of your cheek, you slipped your dress flats off and set them on your shoe rack. You turned, making your way towards your bedroom as Karen followed after you.
“I just was in a hurry to get back and get changed,” you told her. “Didn’t want to get slowed by the usual evening foot traffic.”
You made your way over to your dresser, pulling a drawer open and grabbing out a pair of jeans. Karen stepped into your bedroom, crossing her arms over her chest and shooting you a pointed stare. 
“Okay, let’s say I believe that bullshit,” Karen replied bluntly. “What was with that look back at the office?”
“What look?” you asked, feigning ignorance.
You tossed your jeans onto your bed and then made your way towards your closet, sliding the door open. Biting your bottom lip, you tried to focus on finding a shirt as Karen stepped further into your bedroom.
“The look back at the office,” she clarified. “When I’d said I’d been to Matt’s and that we’d– Oh .”
Breath catching in your throat, you stared even more intensely at your wardrobe hanging in your closet. She’d certainly figured it out now.
“You like Matt, don’t you?” she asked, her tone abruptly softening.
“We–we’ve been friends for a while, so yeah,” you answered, still refusing to look at her. “Obviously I like him.”
“No,” Karen said.
You heard her briskly closing the distance between the pair of you before you felt her hands reaching out, landing on your shoulders and turning you to face her. Chewing your lip even more nervously, you saw the realization in her wide blue eyes. And then seconds later–there it was. That same fucking look Foggy always gave you. It immediately drew tears to your eyes.
“Stop it, Karen,” you warned her.
“How did I not see it before?” she asked. “You like him. As more than a friend.”
“No,” you replied, your voice cracking on the word as you swiftly shook your head. “No, he’s just my best friend.”
“Oh shit, I didn’t know,” she said quickly. “I wouldn’t have–wouldn’t have gone on those dates with him if I’d known you liked him.”
“I–I don’t like him,” you said weakly.
Karen sent you a sad smile, her hands still gripping your shoulders. You felt a tear slip down your cheek and you abruptly wiped it away with the back of your hand. 
“Don’t lie to me,” Karen replied. “You care about him a lot, don’t you?”
A loud sniffle fell out of you, your eyes dropping down to your bedroom floor. Crossing your arms over your chest, you tried to control the threat of tears. How many times had you already cried over Matt since you met him now?
“Yeah,” you whispered. “I’ve…been in love with him for years.”
Karen gasped audibly at your confession, her hands tightening on your shoulders. You sniffed again, blinking rapidly and trying to force the tears back down.
“And he doesn’t know?” she asked.
You shrugged lamely, still refusing to meet her eyes. “Foggy does, but I don’t know about Matt,” you answered. “I’ve never told him, but I’d flirted with him in the beginning. Or at least, I thought I had. I’m not really good at it,” you admitted. “Not with him, at least. But he’s never taken an interest in me. He goes out on so many dates, I’m sure if he actually liked me he’d have asked me out by now. I just–” you paused, fighting hard to keep your voice even, “–just have never been good enough for a second look from him. He’s always wanted everyone but me. And I’m just–just passed over.”
Karen said your name gently, trying hard to catch your eye. Slowly you looked up, meeting her eyes with your own. 
“Maybe he just doesn’t know,” she told you. 
Panic flooded you instantly, your eyes going wide at what you thought she was saying. 
“I’m not going to tell him I’m in love with him!” you exclaimed. “And neither are you! That would kill our friendship in a second!”
“Well, you don’t exactly know that ,” Karen replied. “But okay, if you won’t just tell him, why not try to flirt instead?”
Mouth dropping open, you stared at Karen in complete shock. She wanted you to flirt with Matt? Not only did that sound ridiculous, you didn’t exactly know how to flirt with him. Because if he’d been unaware of your attempts before, he certainly still would be now.
“I can’t flirt, Karen,” you told her. “Not with him. My brain short-circuits if I try. And if he didn’t catch on before–if that’s even remotely the reason–he’s definitely not going to now.”
“I’ll help you flirt!” she said brightly. “He caught on when I flirted with him.”
Your face instantly fell at her words, your heart dropping to your stomach. You didn’t need a reminder of that right now.
Catching on to what she’d just said, her eyes went wide again as she quickly shook her head. “Oh shit, I’m sorry!” she exclaimed. “I didn’t mean it like that. But hey, for the record?” she continued in a rush. “Nothing happened between us. I mean, we kissed like twice but that was it. Nothing more than that, okay? We just didn’t work together. We both realized that.”
“Right,” you mumbled awkwardly.
“Look, he viewed me like a friend for a while, too,” Karen told you. “Until I started more openly flirting with him. Try to compliment him. Maybe touch his arm a few times or something–that’ll certainly catch his attention.”
“Or make him think I’m being absolutely weird,” you said. “I don’t compliment Matt unless we’re having heart to hearts. And I definitely don’t just touch his arm.”
“Well there you go!” she chirped. “He’ll pick up on something then tonight.”
“Wait,” you began, panic flooding you yet again. “You want me to flirt with him tonight ? Where you and Foggy can witness my terrible attempts?”
Karen shrugged a shoulder easily. “I don’t think they’ll be terrible attempts, but why wait? Do you want to risk losing your chance?” she countered.
Shoulders dropping, you realized she had a point. Matt often worked fast with finding a new fling or someone to take on a date. And it’s not like you saw him frequently enough to know you’d have another opportunity soon.
“Fine,” you relented with a sigh. “I’ll try to flirt with him tonight.”
“Great!” Karen replied, a wide smile spreading over her lips. “I’m excited to see how it goes!”
“That makes one of us,” you grumbled, focusing back on your closet.
Tumblr media
Karen knocked on Matt’s apartment door as you stood next to her, trying hard to focus on your breathing. You felt like you were going to be sick with the way your nerves were fluttering in your stomach. You didn’t even think you’d be able to eat the meal you’d all be ordering tonight with the way it was churning and twisting. The thought of flirting with Matt had you wanting to turn back around and throw up in the elevator as more and more thoughts raced through your mind.
What if he didn’t catch on at all to what you were doing? Which seemed likely because you were terrible at flirting with him. You didn’t want to get your hopes up that he’d flirt back because you didn’t know what to expect–and you didn’t want to be let down.
Or what if he did catch on but you made him uncomfortable because you were supposed to just be his friend? Would it ruin the friendship entirely? And you’d just lose Matt forever? You didn’t even want to think about that.
But just as nerve wracking–what if he flirted back? Did it mean he liked you, too? What the hell happened after that? Did you ask him out?
By the time Matt finally opened his apartment door, you felt like you were inching closer and closer to a panic attack. It didn’t help that he looked handsome in a dark green tee-shirt and jeans. He’d left his glasses off, too, giving you a full view of his entire face. It had been awhile since you’d seen him without them on since he always wore them in public. And you hadn’t exactly been invited into Matt’s private space in such a long time yourself.
It hurt to remember that, too.
“Hey, Matt!” Karen greeted him brightly. 
“Glad you made it, Karen,” Matt greeted her with a smile.
Trying to swallow down the lump in your throat, you opened your mouth to speak. “Hey, Matty,” you said, wincing at how odd your voice came out.
You saw Matt’s head tilt to the side, the corner of his lip briefly twitching. But then he greeted you with a smile and your name before inviting you both inside. Karen stepped inside first and you followed after her, but as you slipped past Matt where he was holding the door open, your arm almost brushed against his chest and you’d quickly darted away from him before you accidentally touched him, eyes wide and terrified.
Karen had been at the end of the entryway hall and saw the entire awkward moment. She shot you a stern look as Matt closed the door. You swore she mouthed the words ‘stop freaking out’ before you felt Matt bump into you from behind. Jumping in surprise, you nearly flew out of your skin as you backed into the wall. Matt’s head instantly spun towards you, a curious and confused look on his face.
“I’m sorry, didn’t realize you were standing there,” he said.
“No, it uh, it was my fault,” you said awkwardly. “Shouldn’t uh, shouldn’t just be standing in a hallway.”
Matt continued to stare at you for a long moment, his hazel eyes scanning questioningly around your face. Biting your cheek, you shot him a sheepish smile even though you knew he couldn’t see it. 
“Are you sure you’re alright today?” he asked.
“Yeah, why?” you asked quickly.
“You seem…off,” he said slowly.
“Nope, no,” you replied quickly, shaking your head as Karen mouthed something to you behind Matt that you didn’t catch. “I’m definitely not off today, I’m certainly on.”
Even you cringed at how stupid you’d just sounded, watching as Karen’s eyes slowly closed. Flirting with Matt was a horrible idea. This wasn’t going to work out. You should probably stop before you even tried and ended up truly embarrassing yourself.
“Okay,” Matt said slowly, that unsure look on his face. “Well, Fog is already here so if you want to come in, we can figure out what to eat so we can place an order.”
Matt continued his way down the hall and you followed behind him, internally cursing yourself for how awkward you were becoming around him. It's like all those years you'd spent with him at Columbia had disappeared and you'd suddenly become a stupid, bumbling school girl with a crush. 
The moment you entered the living room, you spotted Foggy sitting on one of the chairs facing the leather couch Matt had opposite his coffee table. Foggy’s gaze immediately locked onto you, his eyes going wide when he did. You watched as he slipped his phone out of his pocket, his fingers flying across it rapidly. Brows drawing together in confusion, your focus shifted to the large industrial windows to your right–and then your jaw dropped.
“Holy shit, you weren’t kidding about it being obnoxious,” you blurted.
“What?” Matt asked, pausing on his way to the kitchen.
“Sorry–the billboard,” you explained quickly. “The billboard is obnoxious. I wasn’t exactly expecting it to be so…”
“Obnoxious?” Matt supplied, a cheeky grin on his mouth.
You felt yourself flush as your attention shifted to him, cheeks burning partially from embarrassment and partially from how incredibly sexy he looked with that little grin on his mouth. Why couldn't he just become unattractive one of these days to make things easier on you? 
“Yeah,” you mumbled.
In your pocket you felt your phone vibrate, the feel of it catching your attention. Frowning, you glanced down and slipped it out.
“You two want a beer?” Matt asked as he opened his fridge.
“Absolutely!” Karen called out from where she’d settled into the chair beside Foggy’s.
“Uh, yeah,” you replied, distracted by the text you’d received.
It was from Foggy, which had further confused you since he was sitting in the room with you. You didn’t understand why he’d texted you until you’d read what was written in the message.
6:37 PM Foggy:  Dude, what are you doing???? You’re being so gd AWKWARD.
Biting your lip, you quickly typed up a response to Foggy and sent it. 
6:38 PM: Karen knows. She told me I should flirt with him tonight. I’m TERRIFIED.
You shot Foggy a meaningful look as you made your way around the couch, aware that he and Karen had conveniently left you the spot where you’d have to sit beside Matt. And as you took your seat, you saw Matt making his way over with two beers in his hands. He handed one off to Karen when she alerted him to where she was sitting on one of the chairs, and you’d been about to acknowledge him until you saw Foggy reading your text and typing up a response again. It wasn’t until Matt turned towards the couch, saying your name in a form of question as he focused on the space just beside you, that you’d realized you’d forgotten to catch his attention.
“Sorry, I'm zoning out,” you apologized, reaching forward to accept the beer from Matt. “Thank you.”
“Of course,” he replied.
Matt took a seat next to you, sitting closer to you than you’d anticipated, though you figured it was unintentional. It's not like he could see how close he'd sat. Across the coffee table, Karen raised her brows at you before her eyes darted pointedly over at Matt a few times. Ducking your head, you nervously drew the beer to your lips and downed a few sips. 
What the hell were you even supposed to say? How were you supposed to flirt with him? Especially with her and Foggy watching you like this so closely. They were only making you even more uncomfortable and awkward. You were so close to just aborting the entire plan.
Your phone vibrated on your lap as it received Foggy’s next text, breaking through your nervous thoughts. Matt cleared his throat beside you on the couch almost immediately afterwards, the noise startling you as he shifted beside you. As he moved, he spread his legs further open and his knee almost bumped into yours. Your eyes were glued to that minute distance between both of your legs, wondering how weird it would be if you just brushed your leg against his.
“So, should we figure out dinner before we lose track of time?” Matt asked.
Drawn out of your thoughts, your attention shifted down to your phone. As the three of them began discussing food options, you opened your text from Foggy.
6:43 PM Foggy:  OMG just tell him! Put us both out of our misery already and TELL HIM.
Glancing up from your phone, you caught Foggy’s eye. He sent you a very pointed look and you shook your head quickly. Out of your peripheral, you saw Matt’s head turn just a little in your direction as Karen was listing off options of nearby places that delivered. You panicked at that little movement, feeling almost like Matt knew something was going on.
But that was ridiculous. You were just being paranoid because you were freaking out about the prospect of flirting with him tonight. That was all.
Karen called your name across the room, catching your attention. Eyes darting up, you glanced over at her with brows raised. 
"I'm sorry, what?" you asked. 
She shot you an apologetic smile before she listed off the names of restaurants again. You were becoming increasingly aware of the way Matt was now focused directly on you as you listened to her. His sightless gaze was sending your heart into overdrive as he seemingly just stared at your chest. What the hell was he doing?
“So what sounds good to you?” Karen asked.
“Oh, uh–” 
Movement across from you had you glancing back over at Foggy. For some reason he'd sat forward in his chair, some strange expression crossing his face as he watched Matt closely beside you. He seemed to snap out of it though when he saw you staring. 
"Uh, why don't we just–just do one of the pizza places?" you asked Karen distractedly, brows now furrowing at Foggy. "We all like pizza, right?"
"I'm in," Foggy agreed quickly, nodding his head at Karen.
"I'm good with pizza," Karen said slowly, shooting Foggy a strange look before she focused on Matt. "What about you, Matt?"
You turned, looking at Matt where he sat beside you. His focus was still on your chest, his expression one of intense concentration. Nervous, you felt your palms beginning to sweat, your heart racing as that ever so familiar fight or flight sensation slowly began to kick in. If he didn’t stop doing that soon, you were probably going to bolt out of his apartment and run home. You were already terrified at the prospect of trying to find a way to work in touching his damn arm , you didn’t need him staring at you like that, too. 
“Matt?” Karen asked again.
Matt startled on the couch, his head whipping in the direction of Karen’s voice. 
“Hmm?” he asked her.
“Are you good with pizza?” she repeated.
“Oh, yeah, sure,” he answered. “Wherever is fine.”
Lips parting in surprise, you and Foggy instantly met each other’s eyes, the pair of you sharing a look. That was odd for Matt. He would have usually had more to say about food–what pizza place to pick depending on the day of the week, for starters. Which never made any goddamn sense to you or Foggy, but Matt was generally always adamant. His disinterest was…strange.
Karen abruptly rose out of the chair, her focus on her phone. “I’m going to step into the kitchen and order the pizza then,” she announced. “Foggy? You think you could help? I always have trouble with this app.”
Foggy’s head snapped over to Karen, a look of confusion on his face. He opened his mouth to question her, but Karen glanced up from her phone and shot him a purposeful look.
“Right, yeah, I can help,” Foggy said, rising swiftly from his chair. “They uh, they updated their app it’s–it’s a pain even for me to navigate now.”
He laughed, the sound awkward as he followed behind Karen over to the kitchen. That’s when it hit you that they’d intentionally left you alone on the couch. With Matt. Your focus instantly dropped down to your beer, your fingers nervously drumming along the bottle. Now was a good time to try flirting since you didn’t have an audience, but you felt like you’d suddenly lost your grasp on the English language.
“How’s work been?” Matt asked, turning a bit towards you on the couch.
“It’s been alright,” you answered a little shyly. “Busy. Stressful. How’s the law firm doing?”
“Good,” he replied. “Also busy and stressful.”
You looked up at him from beneath your lashes. He was smiling at you and you felt your heart nearly skip a beat at the sight. His head tilted to the side just a bit, the corners of his eyes twitching ever so faintly. 
“How’ve you been doing?” he asked slowly.
Licking your lips nervously, you tried to think of how to turn this into something flirtatious before Karen and Foggy inevitably meandered back to the living room. “I’ve been good, but I–I do miss seeing you and Fog.”
Before you could overthink the gesture and convince yourself not to do it, your right hand darted out and landed on Matt’s shoulder. You felt him instantly tense under the contact and you didn’t know what to make of that. Had you startled him? Did he not like this? Had he realized you were making some sort of move on him and you’d made him uncomfortable?
“I miss spending time with you, too,” he admitted. 
He was still tense beneath your touch and your mind was racing. Did you leave your hand there? Touch him somewhere else? Uproot and move to Mars? 
Why was this so goddamn hard ?
Glancing over to the kitchen, you saw Karen and Foggy staring at you over Karen’s phone. Both of them had wide eyes as they gawked at the pair of you. Karen’s eyes aggressively gestured to Matt. You could practically hear her in your head telling you to compliment him. 
“So how have–have you been?” you asked, your hand still resting on his shoulder. “Seems like you’ve been going to the gym more since Columbia.”
As the words left your mouth, you felt like your soul also left your body. Had you just complimented him on his muscles like that ? That was so incredibly not smooth. That was the furthest thing from a good compliment that you probably could have given him. You wished you could punch yourself in the face when you heard Matt’s amused chuckle in response. Internally you were screaming as your hand immediately recoiled from his shoulder.
“I suppose you could say that,” he answered. “Work has certainly been stressful and I’ve often needed an…outlet.”
“Right, yeah,” you said, shifting on the couch and intentionally sliding a bit away from Matt. “That makes sense.”
His head further canted to the side, the smile on his lips gradually falling away as he focused on you. You drew the beer to your lips, drinking more of it down as you glanced over the back of the couch. Foggy and Karen were staring at you like they’d just witnessed a horrific car accident. You sent them a look that was a clear cry for help as you lowered the beer from your lips. Thankfully they headed back out of the kitchen, saving you from further embarrassing yourself.
“Well the pizza should be about forty-five minutes,” Karen announced as she settled back in the seat.
“Great,” you replied.
The sooner you ate, the sooner you could leave. You did not think you could do this flirting thing much more tonight.
Tumblr media
Karen and Foggy had opted to leave when you had announced your departure from Matt’s shortly after finishing dinner. The two of them were clearly desperate to walk part of the way home with you so they could bug you about how the night had gone, which was why you’d been surprised when Foggy had almost immediately locked Karen into a conversation about work as soon as you’d all left Matt’s place. He’d enthusiastically kept up the conversation for a couple of blocks before it had suddenly fizzled out. That’s when the pair of them broke you from your moping thoughts and focused on you.
“What even was that back there?” Foggy asked. “I’ve seen you be vastly more charming than that.”
“Yeah,” you shot back, “with guys that aren’t Matt I can be.”
“And what was that compliment?” Foggy continued. “Were you going to ask him how to get a discounted gym membership next?”
Your cheeks heated at his comment as you threw your hands over your face and groaned. “It was awful, I know!” you whined.
“All you had to do was say ‘Hey Matt, you’re looking real good lately’,” Foggy told you. “Literally, that’s it!”
“Fog, stop, you’re not helping,” Karen chastised.
Foggy rounded on Karen next. “Do you know how long I’ve watched her pine after Matt?” he asked her. “And now tonight she finally decides to try to flirt with him? I thought this was it! This was the night my two best friends got together and the pining would be over!”
Hands dropping to your sides, you focused on your feet as you continued to trudge along beside them. “Sorry to disappoint,” you told him. “But I think it’s safe to say Matt is not interested.”
“Why do you say that?” Karen asked curiously.
Your attention shifted to Karen next to you, your eyes meeting hers. “Because that back there?” you said flatly, gesturing a thumb over your shoulder. “That’s not how I usually act around Matt. That was more flirty than I’d even been when I’d first met him–which yes, is sad because that was an awful excuse for flirting back there. But if he didn’t respond to any of that tonight, then clearly he’s not interested.”
“She has a point,” Foggy said with a sigh on the other side of Karen. “She’s never been like that with him before. Not that I’ve seen at least. If Matt was picking up something from her and felt the same, he certainly wasn’t doing a good job reciprocating.” He leaned around Karen, shooting you that goddamn sympathetic look. “I’m sorry, but I think you’re right.”
“Not like I didn’t already know he only liked me as a friend,” you replied, tears stinging at your eyes. “I’ll just forever be the one woman in New York City Matt won’t date. Or even try to hook up with.” You felt a few warm tears slide down your cheeks, biting your tongue to fight back the sob threatening to fall out of you. “I’m just–just so tired of feeling like this,” you whispered. “Of crying over him. It’s been years of this. And I can’t–can’t make it stop.”
“Maybe…cut him out of your life?” Karen hesitantly suggested. 
Your eyes widened as your gaze flew to hers beside you. “Just–just stop being his friend?” you asked in disbelief.
She shrugged a shoulder. “I mean, if it’s hurting you this much for that long, and it’s not going anywhere with him and you’re not getting over him with anyone else…maybe it’s something to consider?” she said gently.
“I don’t think I could ever stop being his friend,” you admitted, shaking your head. “Not while I’m in New York.”
“You know,” Karen continued, that hesitant tone back, “I really don’t want to suggest this, but if that’s the case…have you ever thought about leaving?”
Your feet faltered on the sidewalk, Foggy and Karen coming to a stop with you. Foggy was shaking his head at Karen vehemently, wagging a finger at her.
“No, you’re not suggesting she leaves Hell’s Kitchen,” Foggy told her. “She’s one of my best friends.”
“Yeah, I get that,” Karen agreed, tucking some blonde hair behind her ear as she focused on him. “I’d rather she never leave either. But I mean…do you like knowing that she’s hurting this much? For all of this time?” Karen’s blue eyes shifted back to you. “Are you even happy?” she asked.
You opened your mouth, about to answer, but the words wouldn’t come out. Because the answer was no, you weren’t. Not really. Sure, you liked your job. You had friends you enjoyed spending time with. And you really loved New York City–even Hell’s Kitchen had really come to grow on you since graduation.
But deep down you wanted Matt. It was a constant, neverending ache right in the center of your chest. All of the dates you’d ever gone on since meeting him had eventually failed before they could become anything more because no one else was Matt. They couldn’t compare. You couldn’t get him out of your head long enough to really see someone else. Even with Liam, one of the only relationships you’d had in years, you had been constantly comparing him to Matt. But you’d tried really hard to be happy with him, and yet ultimately that relationship had ended in disaster. 
“I’m just saying,” Karen said softly, her eyes on you, “it’s an idea. If you’re really not happy, if it’s that difficult for you to move on past Matt, you could always leave New York. It’s not like you couldn’t come visit us, too. But I can see it on your face.” Her hand reached out, landing on your shoulder and giving it a gentle squeeze. “You’re hurting. And you really shouldn’t have to live like that.”
Wiping the back of your hands across your cheeks, you tried to wipe away your tears. With a sniffle you continued on again, both Karen and Foggy falling back in step with you on the sidewalk.
“It’s a thought, I suppose,” you muttered. “But I don’t really want to leave New York.”
“And you don’t have to,” Foggy assured you.
The chilly evening air bit at the tear tracks on your cheeks as the three of you neared the end of the block. It was the point in which you’d all soon part ways to head back to your own apartments. Beside you, Karen let out a deep sigh. 
“It was merely a suggestion,” she stated. “That’s all.”

Oh my gosh when I saw and read the Dragons x Reader who is an expert with Dragons
I was wondering if you could do part 2 where the Reader meet the Dragons!
Like bro when Reader found out they we're just ecstatic and started to touch/caress there wings or tails and just be immediately affectionate but gentle of course
Hope you enjoy your milkshake! Now I kinda didn’t have any ideas for Longan so if you have any your willing to share then pls do
Meeting the Dragons
-romantic scenario-
Part 1
Pitaya Dragon
Oh boy, ever since meeting you Pitaya was HEAD over heals for you- not that they would admit it
They planned on telling you they were a dragon… eventually!
But Snap Dragon might have made that revel come sooner than expected…
The two of you were hanging out together when Snap Dragon emerged right from Pitayas hair
The two of you were quite shocked, but you were more excited about Snap Dragon than Pitaya was
You started to coo over Snap Dragon, baby dragons were rare so you were ecstatic
Snap Dragon was LOVING the attention that you were giving them. And they also were happy to meet the cookie Pitaya was always rambling about
Now Pitaya was kinda jealous of the attention you were giving Snap Dragon
So they decided to finally reveal themself to you
At the drop of a cape you noticed your friend had a dragon tail and wings but you quickly realized that you were in the presence of, not just one dragon, but two!
You were so excited, you couldn’t stop asking Pitaya questions! Pitaya even let you touch their wings!
Pitaya smiled as you played with Snap Dragon, this is why they love you.
Ananas Dragon
About a month of the two of you leaving gifts for each other Ananas finally decided it was time for you to meet them
Now The Golden Dragon wouldn’t admit it, but they planed how this meeting would go for days
It just had to be perfect!
So around Dawn The Golden Dragon went to the usual exchange spot and waited for several hours until they heard someone walking towards the area
The dragon took a deep breath, fixed their hair, and made it look like they were leaving a gift
When you saw The Golden dragon you froze, you didn’t expect to see THE Golden Dragon
Ananas greeted you with elegance they rehearsed more than once
Now they did get nervous when you didn’t respond immediately but after a minute you could hardly contain your excitement
Ananas could see this so they allowed you to ask them some questions
That absolutely made your day! You were talking to a REAL dragon
Your excitement made Ananas Smile
Lotus Dragon
Lotus was getting really curious about you. The Blue Dragon only knew about your passion for dragons
The dragon wanted to actually meet you
So they called Hydrangea Cookie to fetch you
When you heard you were required to go to the Lotus Palace, you nearly had a heart attack.
And your heart practically stoped when you were informed that The Blue Dragon wanted to see you
THE BLUE DRAGON WANTED TO SEE YOU???
When you got to the palace you were and absolute mess but The Blue Dragon was calm as an undisturbed ocean
Lotus knew you were nervous but that didn’t bother them, they wanted to get to know you better so they offered you to have tea with them
Lotus just loved the way you rambled on about yourself
Lychee Dragon
Lychee Dragon was SO desperate for your love
But them being Mangosteen Cookie would definitely make things weird so they needed a plan
Their plan was simple, they continued to be Mangosteen Cookie but also have you meet their real self so they can spend the most amount of time with you!
That was the main idea.
So one day when you were alone Lychee Dragon made themself look like they got stuck in one of the Rambutan Tribes traps they didn’t get stuck
When you found them, they could see a mix of a lot of different emotions. Shock, excitement and confusion.
Lychee Dragon, once free, made a whole sob story about how lonely they were.
You believed it. As asked if Lychee wanted to be your friend
They said yes obviously
Now was Lychee manipulating you to some degree by being two separate cookies? Yes
Did they really care about the potential problems this may cause? No
They could just brainwash you to make you forget!
Longan Dragon
Oh boy.
Longan dragon is… interesting to say the least.
They may or may not have kidnapped you for one night so they could meet you
And you may or may not think it was a dream.
But Longan will probably keep taking you in the dead of night and then returning you the next morning.
It’s the only way they can see you without causing a mass panic

“I will love you unconditionally…”
“Come just as you are to me, don't need apologies. Know that you are worthy!” (“Unconditionally” by Katy Perry)
Feathers. Feathers everywhere. The teenagers were panting heavily from their previous childish pillow-fight, staring at each other with red, sweaty faces. But something about the whole mood seemed to change…shifting into something else…something unfamiliar. The sudden tension between Severus and Julia became palpable, wavering in thick air. His voice cut the awkward silence between them. “What is this all about, Jules?” Brushing the cheeky strand of hair - which seemed to have a life on its own…always falling over his left eye - out of his face, Severus glanced at her, narrowing his eyes. He didn’t know, what to think about her latest antics. Would she be the next person, who would abandon him? He knew it…he shouldn’t have gotten too attached to her….he shouldn’t have allowed her to break through his walls. “You’re pathetic, Severus!”, he scolded himself internally, coursing his heart for this feeling of hope, that he had given permission to grow in his chest. “You should have known better than that.”
“Sevy, I…”, her voice broke mid sentence, when she recognised the familiar expressions of annoyance and disappointment in his face. No…this was not supposed to happen! This was the moment, when Julia knew, that she couldn’t hold herself back anymore. She couldn’t lose him! Her friend! Her companion through thick and thin! Taking a deep breath, Julia took his hand in hers and revealed her deepest feelings for him. It was now or never!
“Sevy, from the very first moment, when I've seen you in the Great Hall...this way too skinny, raven haired boy with his adorably crooked nose and those beautiful - and yet so sad - obsidian eyes...l've been fallen head over heels for you!”, she blurted out…feeling her heart beating up to her throat. There was no way back for her now, that was for sure.
“Jules…what…”, but before Severus could react to her blunt confession, Julia stopped him from talking, shaking her head vigorously. “Listen to me, Sevy! Let me explain this to you. It’s…it’s your soul!”, she stuttered nervously, stumbling over her own words.
“Your soul has always seemed to be surrounded by some kind of magnetic field, Sevy. And my poor soul is constantly lingering on it…desperately trying to get attached to yours.” Julia’s cheeks went scarlet, but it was too late…she couldn’t stop herself from confessing her feelings to her best friend anymore.
“I’m like a goddamn moth…”, she uttered nervously, “and you…you’re the light! I…I can’t help myself…you…you’re all, I can think about!”
„I am…the light?“ Severus was speechless. Never would he have considered himself as a light…and especially not as a light to someone! But he couldn’t say anything further to his best friend‘s confession…not since Julia just didn’t stop talking!
„I don't expect anything from you, Severus. My love for you is…unconditionally…and…undeniably.“, she continued with her flow of words. This wasnt new to Severus, he knew Julia’s habit of losing herself in an endless stream of rhapsody over the most random things. But he had never expected to become the subject of her rambling speech…and she still didn’t come to an end!
„I will find you inside your own darkness, Severus...no matter, where you are…no matter, where you’re hiding yourself from the world! I want to be the light, that leads you home. I will break through the cage, you've built around yourself. And I won't ever let you go!“, declared Julia boldly before she interrupted herself, holding her breath. Suddenly, there was only one thought left in her mind: “Oh no…what have I done?!”
This was a little snippet from one of my more innocent stories, which I’m writing in my sleepless nights in order to cope with my own situation…and gosh, I’m so fucking nervous to share this with you all for the very first time.
Even though I’m someone, who always seemed to be quite self-confident towards others, I’m only a very insecure and overly sensitive person on the inside. My whole life, there was always one thought in the back of my head: What if I’m not good enough? What if I’m nothing but a failure?
And since I’m struggling with this cruel disease ME/CFS, which completely cuts me off from the life, I’ve used to known…my insecurities and vulnerabilities are growing even deeper. So, this is a sign of trust, you wonderful people of Snapedom! I’m trusting you with a tiny piece of my heart…a tiny piece of my true self.
My friend, the wonderfully talented artist @snake-queen7, drew this beautiful artwork of Sevy and Jules in the middle of their pillow-fight….and you did a fantastic job, my dear! Thank you for letting my fantasies come to life…for allowing me to feel alive again through your excellent art!
🖤Sevy & Jules🖤
🖤Severus & Julia🖤

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
you didn't need to think twice when he asked you if you'd marry him, you'd've been a fool to have lied to him about how you felt; but you ended up an even bigger, more lovesick fool than ever when you kept repeating to yourself this: i'm getting married to the man of my dreams. you would never forget the way his eyes watered up, how his smile seemed to brighten the whole place up just a little bit in your eyes when you said yes, the saccharine laughter that rang in your ears as he kept asking you in a bewildered, awestruck voice if you really meant to say 'yes' to being his spouse, his spouse.
and up to this day, he can't stop asking you if you mean it; he is that smitten and enamored with you, he can't believe that personified perfection agreed to share their life with him.
however, it's due to that disbelief, that urge he has to think that nothing good in his life will last—that your love is merely temporary, that the universe will one day inevitably rip you away from him like nearly everyone he ever truly cared for in his life—that this affectionate him right now won't be around forever. he's scared that if he makes one wrong move, says one wrong thing, takes one look at the wrong direction—he'll lose you forever. and in a way... he feels like he deserves it, that he deserves to lose you.
he's been holed up in his office, brooding in the dark and thinking to himself in silence as the images and videos on his monitors play by without him looking up to acknowledge what's happening on the screens. he whispers to lyla to play footage of the two of you dancing at your friend's wedding, specifically to the timestamp when you two had your first dance as a couple at the reception hall's dance floor. he heard your voice and laughter, as sonorous and melodic as it was the evening he held you in his arms. it certainly wasn't the first time he held you, but it was the first time he held you with a great feeling in his chest, one that couldn't be labelled nor replicated by any other feeling in the world—it was the first time he held you knowing that his life and yours were going to be one, you two are each other's, like your friend, you two would have your happily ever after one day.
he smiled to himself, much like how he smiled on the video; and he repeated the same words he uttered that night when you chuckled to yourself nervously. "i feel so... weird and nervous having all these eyes on me. is it obvious?" "oh, very." he teased you, mouthing the words out with a wide grin as he watched the footage back with a smile, chuckling as he heard you laugh at his smart ass quips and sarcastic remarks. he missed how sweet your laugh was, how adorable you got when you pretended to be angry at his little comments. "this isn't even our wedding, but, gosh... i can't imagine how it'd be like if it was ours, it's so... so intimidating..." you muttered to him as you held his hand and shoulder tighter, with your feet nearly stumbling and wobbling out of sheer embarrassment.
miguel smiled wider as he watched himself sigh and place his hands underneath your chin, turning your head to make you look at him. "cariño, you're perfect as you are already. even if you're... a nervous mess, i'm falling deeper in love with you when i see you this vulnerable, this honest, really." he said as he leaned in to kiss you, with your eyes gazing up into his mahogany brown ones. the clip was paused in the middle of the kiss scene since a guest had knocked on miguel's office door. "is that during my friend's wedding night?" you asked him with a big smile as miguel's face got all flustered and he closed the monitor, shaking his head. "huh, what friend, what wedding night?" he asked you rapidly as you stifled a laugh. "you're not that slick, miggy." you told him as he rubbed the back of his neck and awkwardly grinned at you. "that's my fatal flaw." he admitted with a chuckle as you held his other hand in your own.
"why were you watching it, miggy? too excited for our own wedding night? can't wait to dance with me?" you asked him with a glimmer in your eyes. miguel cleared his throat and looked away from you and off into the dark distance of his room, his eyes scanning the surroundings, not really looking for anything in particular, but merely wanting to look at anything but you, because... he didn't know how to tell you the words that he wanted to release from his mouth right now. he sighed and decided that, since you were going to be his spouse soon anyway, better yet he be honest and confess to you right now his anxieties.
"well, um, i... you could say i'm excited, yes, but... i'm a little scared." he admitted in a hushed voice as he felt your grip tighten around his hand. "do tell me about it, i won't judge." you told him in a soft tone as miguel smiled a little and shook his head. "oh, where to begin?" he asked himself as he rubbed his forehead and took in a deep breath. miguel went on to describe his worries about being the perfect husband, if he could even fulfil the role of being your lover, your husband; if you'd have even the slightest regrets about marrying him... it's these irrepressible, negative thoughts of his that hinders him from enjoying the time he has with you, because he can barely enjoy time with himself.
"i just... want to be enough for you, you know that..." he said as he held your hand back and squeezed your hand slightly. he sighed again as he thought he just bummed you out and made you see just how weak he really was when it came to the things and people that really mattered to him in his life. "i'm sorry, it's really pathetic, isn't it?" he asked you with a slight chuckle, which was soon broken by you suddenly leaning over and planting a kiss on his lips. it was short; a brief kiss, though one that pulled miguel out of his self-deprecating trance for a minute to listen to you. "i'm going to marry a man who loves me and is self-assured that he loves me; i'm not going to marry this handsome impostor who doesn't even know if he thinks he's enough for me, he is, has, and always will be." you said with a loving smile as you placed both of your hands on either sides of his face.
miguel's eyes soften as he gazes back into your own eyes, filled with love and slight sympathy for him; you have no idea what it's like to be in those big shoes he has to fill, and you won't pretend you have all the answers, that you know everything, but you can guarantee him that as his lover, best friend, and future spouse--you will definitely be there for him, come rain or shine. you pulled him in for another kiss, which felt more passionate and longer than the previous one. as you pulled away, miguel not only appeared more flustered, but he appeared to be more... in awe of you. he nodded and covered his lips, which he kept parting and bringing together over and over in an effort to say something, anything to thank you for your words, your assurance, because he needs that more than you will ever know.
he returned the favor by wrapping his arms around your waist and pulling you in for another, more dramatic, kiss. his eyelids fluttered open after he kissed you and he smiled as he gazed at your beautiful, bashful face. "i'm really marrying you, huh? how did i... how did i get so lucky?" he asked you as you smiled and kissed him again, leaving him unanswered, but thoroughly happy and satisfied with you and all the love and comfort you had for him, with plenty more in store when you two were finally to be wedded.

sunghoon was planning an ice-skating date. you’d been together for over a year now and he couldn’t believe he’d never thought about it before.  it was all perfectly laid out in his head, everything he wanted to show you. he went all out to make it something special, he decided to take you to the ice rink where he’d first learned how to skate.
the ice was like his second home, it was somewhere he had a lot of good memories and he just wanted to share it with you. he was smiling from ear to ear  his eyes were twinkling and he couldn’t wait to tell you what he had in store for the two of you. 
well.. that was until he saw your face drop at his idea. “uhm.. babe.. i have something to tell you.” you mumbled looking down at your shoes sheepishly. he quirked an eyebrow at your words, concerned. he was expecting the worst, had he upset you earlier ? gosh he’s so stupid! ? were you breaking up with him? that was definitely it-
“i can’t skate.“ 
sunghoon was shaken out of his spiralling thoughts. “what??” 
 you felt the heat rise to your cheeks in embarrassment. “thank god” you heard him sigh in relief. “so you’re not breaking up with me!“ 
“what?? when did i say that?” you question as sunghoon pulls you in for a hug. “that’s nothing! i can teach you!“ he smiles widely, you couldn’t bear to upset him so you agreed. in reality you found nothing more terrifying than standing on ice with literal blades as support. 
when the day rolled around you couldn’t stop that twisted feeling arising in the pit of your stomach, though you knew sunghoon would be, oh so, careful with you. you watched his tie his laces with ease before standing up to stretch. you couldn’t stop your hands from trembling as you tried to knot the lies on your own skates. 
“need some help?” he smiled as he knelt down on his knees and took the ice skates on your feet into his hands. you tried to calm the nervous jittering of your leg as he did his work by focusing on the way his warm breath condensed in the coldness of the rink. “sunghoon” you whispered reaching to tilt his head up to face you. “hmmm?”
“i’m scared.“ 
you felt his movements cease as he let go of your ice skate, “i’m sorry, this is so embarrassing, i know it’s just ice but-” you ramble before he takes your shaking hands into his own. “you know it’s okay to be scared y/n, i was terrified the first time i skated..” he said rubbing small circles on your palm for comfort.
“i’ll take good care of you. okay?” he smiles and you feel your heart squeeze with his affection, “you promise you won’t let go of me?” you whisper. “i promise.” he says before standing up and leading you to the ice. he extends his arms as soon as he gets his balance on the rink , signalling you to hold on. 
you’re still nervous as you reach out to hold him, but once you feel the warmth of sunghoon against you , you feel safe and sound. 
“we’ll go super slow okay?“ he says , skating backwards slowly. you attempt poorly to copy his actions which leads you you skidding a little almost falling backwards. he grabs your arm in time pulling your forward toward him. your heart thuds against your chest in a panic, “don’t worry, i’ve got you!” he shouts, “just hold on to my chest okay and follow me”
and he does. he held you close allowing you to imitate his actions slowly before picking up the pace. “see you’re skating! you barely needed my help!” he smiles widely when he realises your feet are moving at the same rate as his. “oh my gosh” you whisper, you felt a surge of proudness arise at your achievement.  you look up at sunghoon with a grin , his nose and cheeks are red and you feel butterflies build up in your body at his praise. “just move your feet in time with mine yeah?” you nod following his directions.
“i’ll come to your side and hold your hand now okay?“ 
you feel him shift to your right and slip his hand in yours before skating at a steady pace forward. you feel yourself skate alongside him and you realise you’re no longer nervous.
you were left  with a sense of relief at how simple it really was, especially with someone like sunghoon teaching you. you finally let yourself relax and notice how beautiful it all really was. you were so wound up in your worries that you didn’t notice how happy sunghoon looked now that you two were finally skating. a sweet smile played on his lips and he hummed along to the song playing on the speaker at the top of the rink. 
“you really like it here don’t you . babe?“ you say softly  “god i love it, i’m so glad you’re here“ he whispers, you squeeze his hand as the two of you stop to get a breather.  you pull him in by his scarf and place a kiss on his lips, he’s so warm compared to the cold air that’s flowing around the building and you feel yourself melt into his touch.
“thank you for coming here with me, even though you were nervous” he says leaning his forehead on yours. “it means so much to me”
“you don’t need to thank me sunghoon, seeing you happy like this means so much to me .“ you say before leaning up to kiss him again. you feel him smile against your lips and you feel the remnants of your nervous jitters melt away. 
Tumblr media
a/n : this is my first enhypen fic so i hope my representation of sunghoon is alright! i really love this man, i just had to write for him ah!

love you like the sun came out
ˣ pairing: steven grant x reader
ˣ summary: steven spends an evening with two of his absolute favorites— the egyptian exhibit at the museum and you.
ˣ warnings: purely fluff + cheesy love declarations but we need it ;_;
ˣ a/n: this is just a ficlet i whipped up after bawling my eyes out at the end of episode 5. marvel better watch out bc i’m sending them a bill for my therapy this week lololol. hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
- ☾-
“...And over here we have Osiris, the god of the underworld,” Steven enthusiastically points out, his pure excitement seeping from his voice. “Osiris had been the pharaoh of Egypt until his own brother Set murdered him out of jealousy.”
He stands beside you, oh so full of glee, and you couldn’t stop the smile spreading across your face. It’s quite endearing, causing your heart to flutter out of control. Steven had practically counted down each day leading up to this moment— a casual date at the museum, the first of what he hoped would be many more to come.
Acting as your personal tour guide, Steven saves the best for last. The Egyptian exhibit is his ultimate favorite, something he couldn’t wait to share. Spending time with you surrounded by the most fascinating artifacts in ancient history is the cherry on top of an already perfect evening.
“What happened after?” You question Steven, your genuine interest fueling his eagerness. 
“Well, Set dismembered Osiris’ body and disposed of it into the Nile. Osiris’ wife Isis was devastated by his death. She then decided to search for her husband, and when she did, she put him back together and used her magic to resurrect him!”
“Ah, isn’t that romantic?” you quip, and it earns you a light chuckle from Steven. “Tell me more, babe?”
“Y-Yes! Hmm… let’s see who we else we’ve got here—”
For the next hour or so, you follow Steven as he jumps from one antiquity to another, revealing to you the story behind each one. It’s obvious to almost everyone how fond he is of Egyptian lore. He’s always so passionate when it comes to it, constantly spewing out historical tidbits with every chance he gets. 
You adore it, of course. You adore how happy and animated Steven becomes as a result. It makes you truly happy seeing him this way.
“So, this pretty lady right here is Hathor, goddess of love and joy. She’s also the goddess of music, and she— oh, um… Y/N?”
“Oops, sorry, I missed it. You were saying?”
Snapping out of your daze, you see Steven seemingly become worried as he starts glancing at the floor, now unsure of himself. He must have assumed that you were no longer interested or had grown bored, which was extremely far from the truth.
Before you could speak, an announcement plays over the speakers—the museum will be closing in fifteen minutes. Your heart sinks to your stomach when the smile on Steven’s fades, his tone expressing disappointment as he mutters, “I guess that’s it for today.”
“Wait, Steven,” you said, taking a few steps forward to close the distance between you and him. “We’ve got fifteen minutes still. Please, continue.”
“Are you sure? I don’t want to keep you up so late. I know I’ve been talking non-stop in the last hour, and it’s fine if you want to go home.”
A heavy sigh then escapes your lips. “Steven—”
“Maybe Donna was right. Maybe I’m just not cut out to be a tour guide after all—”
“Steven!” You catch his attention, stopping him in the midst of his ramblings. “Sweetheart, where is this coming from?”
He shrugs emptily. “I-I don’t know. I thought that perhaps I went overboard with the whole mythology thing and probably lost you as an audience somewhere along the way. It’s okay; I’ve been told that I tend to be a bit too much, and I should have toned it down tonight. Gosh, I just ruined our date, didn’t I?”
You’re quick to shake your head no at his last statement. Exhaling, you cup his cheeks, your eyes then searching his. “Steven, this night has been perfect for me. I love each minute of it and want even more. I love how excited you get when you share these stories, and I love listening to every word you say.”
You pause for a second, glancing at the figure of Hathor on the side. “Goddess of love, right?”
“Yes,” Steven nods, “Joy and music, too. Also, she’s the goddess of the sky and fertility and—”
You don’t let him finish this time, not when you suddenly capture his lips in a sweet kiss, one he doesn’t seem to mind at all. It’s slow and tender. Gentle, like the kind of man Steven is. You hold him close, feeling him smile through the kiss, which only ends when a patron walks past and clears their throat. Prude.
“Well, in the presence of Hathor, I would like to say that I am in love with you, Steven Grant, and would love nothing more than to listen to you talk about Egypt all day and night.”
The smile on Steven’s face widens to a grin. His doe eyes lock onto yours, admiring you as if you’re the most beautiful creation since the great pyramids of Giza themselves that were built thousands of years ago. “In the presence of Hathor, I too wish to declare my love for you.”
“Well, there you go. Now that that’s out of the way…” you giggle, squeezing his cheeks and then placing a small peck on his nose. “We have around ten minutes left at the most. You’re going to tell me everything there is to know about Hathor until security kicks us out. Afterwards, I’m immediately buying us tickets online for next time so that you can finish touring the exhibit with me. Deal?”
Steven is left momentarily speechless, and you take advantage of his buffering mind to steal yet another kiss. 
When he finally does find his voice, he gives you a little laugh, and it is absolute music to your ears. “Sounds like an amazing deal to me.”

Rewatched Wild Blue Yonder and just... gosh, I love the Not-Things, they are horrifying, a villain that either wears your face, knows you inside and out, or both. I love when the Doctor is forced to fight themselves in some way, like with the Dream Lord from Amy's Choice, or when the Second Doctor faced that evil man that shared his face.
So, I decided to write up a little thing with Fourteen and their Not-Thing confronting one another during the running about before all four are in the same room together.
This takes place after Fourteen ran into the Not Donna.
As always, I use they/them for Fourteen for personal choices. The Not Fourteen uses them as well.
On with the fic!
--
They felt too tight under their own skin, too angry and hurt by that confrontation with... with the Not Donna.
She played the Doctor like a fiddle, and oh how they sang their mournful song of sorrow and guilt, because they thought she'd hear it and understand. No, only their Donna could, not this copy. Not this monster that laughed as their misery, played with their emotions, got them talking.
She knew about the Flux, about the guilt that still ate at them, even now, even with this face.
The Doctor had screamed and raged, kicking and throwing a fit, like a child, when they had escaped. They still felt the urge to continue, but they needed to keep going, before the Not Donna or the monster with their face found their Donna.
There was a shifting sound, a door opening, and the sounds of old trainers on the metal floors.
"Oh." Came the voice of an old self. "It's you, not her."
"Better that way." The Doctor frowned, turning to see themself, standing at the other end of the room.
Well, standing wasn't... the right word.
The Doctor watched as the stolen form contorted and snapped itself from the uncomfortable position it had been in when entering the small space, before the Not Doctor was standing up right. They cracked their neck in a casual way, and the Doctor frowned.
"Your mind games of deception won't work on me. Hard to do that when you're wearing my face."
"A face you still haven't figured out why you're parading around again." Said the Not Doctor, so casually. Even the stance they put themself in was, hands in the pockets, rocking on their feet. The Doctor noticed they were missing their tie, odd.
Then they watched as it shifted and formed out of their neck and shirt.
"Ah, thank you." The copy said, smiling, too many teeth showing. "I nearly forgot about it. Took it off to trick your idiot friend, shocked she noticed it vanished off the floor when she was rambling and rambling away about some nonsense."
The Doctor felt their eye twitch. "Don't talk about her like that."
"'s what you think, when she goes on and on about whatever dumb human thing is going on in her life."
"No, I don't."
"You doooo..." They sang song, spinning on their heel before facing them again, grinning. "I know what you really feel."
"She's my best friend, I love her."
The smile faltered. "But not enough to tell her the truth about yourself. About what happened in those fifteen years you were gone. Or was it two hundred. A thousand? Over a billion years?"
The Doctor frowned deeply, fists clenched at their sides as they watched the Not-Thing stroll around the room as they spoke. "She might remember some things, but she doesn't know the blood that stains your hands. All those lives you ruined because you couldn't stop playing games with time and space. With. Your. Friends."
"Stop it."
"The Time Lord Victorious, do you think she'd be your friend if she knew you damaged a fixed point? After you wouldn't let her change Pompeii?"
"Stop it. Stop it, right now."
"Or how you ruined the lives of the Ponds by constantly interfering? Couldn't just leave well enough alone?"
The Doctor's teeth clenched. "They were my friends, I wanted to be part of their lives just as they wanted to be part of mine."
"They lost their daughter because of you. You led to her being kidnapped and eventually killed."
"She lived a long and beautiful life, I made sure she had good memories! We had twenty four years together!"
The Not Doctor was smiling still. "You took a young girl's life and turned it into a puzzle and then a game. Clara was normal, perfectly normal, but you couldn't let go of the fragments."
The Doctor swallowed. "S-she told me off for it, I stopped chasing the mystery."
"After it was solved. And you kept her around, when she wanted to leave. You couldn't let her go. And then she died. Stuck forever in one point in time. Especially now because the Time Lords can't fix it. Thanks to you."
They hated this, they hated this, stop, stop!
"And Bill, poor Bill! She loved you like a grandparent! A mentor! And then there was... oh, what did we call them? The Fam?" The teeth were pointed, the smile horrifying.
"They weren't ours! They were my family!"
They stopped pacing and turned to look at them, tilting their head unnaturally. "Did you ever stop to think that if you hadn't gotten them involved in your adventures, all of them would be perfectly fine, living their lives? Grace wouldn't have died."
The Doctor looked away.
"And Yaz? What about her? The heartbreak in that poor girl's eyes when she realized that you were leaving her be-"
"SHUT UP!" The Doctor had moved and there was a sharp pain in their knuckles. A small spark of gold went across them, the last lingering threads of regenerative energy.
The Not-Thing was on the ground, clutching their cheek. They looked at the Doctor with such cold, dark eyes, did they look like this to people? To those that feared them?
A smile came back to the Not Doctor. "I know you so well, Doctor. You can't stand thinking about the truth, can you? Knowing that I'm just voicing your thoughts aloud..."
"Doctor! Where are you!?" Came an echoing shout from somewhere nearby.
The Doctor looked at their counterpart and snarled. "I've dealt with worse than the likes of you, and you know it. Mind games are just a cheap trick."
And then they ran, leaving behind the creature wear their face, using their voice to hurt them.
And they knew that the thing was aware of how they really felt about the truth.
--
I am such a sucker for Fourteen angst. :)

your halsinposting inspired me to make a tav to romance halsin and now i’ve started writing fics about them and oh my GOD these two literally have me in tears just because of how sweet they are together. i’ve never smiled or teared up so much while writing two people literally just having a conversation.
i’ve spent all night writing the dialogue for a little pre-relationship heart-to-heart between them and it’s absolutely killing me that none of it makes sense without the context of this tav’s backstory because i need to show them to literally everyone SO bad. these are my babies now and they are so important to me and i need everyone to see how much they care about each other.
this tav is very strong and only a little bit shorter than halsin (his celestial genes gave him The Tall), which leads to many shenanigans, including but not limited to: Pick Up The Druid To Make Him Blush, Use Long Limbs To Spoon The Druid At Maximum Big Spoon Capacity, Crush The Druid Back When He Hugs Really Tight, and Hold The Druid Up Against A Wall (Or A Tree) By His Thighs And Kiss Him Until He Forgets His Own Name. when he finds sweet things in his travels he saves them to leave at halsin’s tent, always along with a little note with a short poem written on it. halsin learns like two days into being at the camp with them that when they’re going to bathe, they just walk around camp buttass naked getting their stuff together and asking if anyone wants to join, and…oakfather preserve him, that’s all I’m gonna say on that.
anyway, i’ll stop rambling in your inbox now, i just had to show them off to Someone and i thought you might appreciate them. thank you for being my gateway into this madness, now it’s time for me to go get possessed by the spirit of these gay motherfuckers and start writing again.
- vampcaprisun (this is sent from my main)
Oh my gosh, that is so sweet! You totally SHOULD share your Tav's backstory- people LOVE that in this fandom! I LOVE those antics, Halsin DESERVES to be the small one for once!!! and I love the other parts too. I just... I love them. I am so happy you got to smush your Tav and Hal together!!!
Don't worry, you aren't rambling at all, and it makes me so happy to hear!!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO ROMANCE HALSIN YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN I STG

Johnny's Girl - Part 13
Smut, but also, fluff! I enjoyed this chapter.
tw: dub/non-con, hematolagnia, dacryphilia, blood, violence, stalking, rough sex
For the next two weeks you didn't see Johnny at all. You were instead being taken care of by Sissy, which didn't turn out to be so bad. She'd ramble on about various things while you ate your dinner or cleaned the mark Johnny had made. You just smiled and nodded along, thankful for the company, most of the time.
"You're just lovely." Sissy said, smiling at you as you ate. "I can see why Johnny likes you, sweet thing."
"Likes me? I think you've got the wrong Johnny..."
"Oh no, he likes you honey. A lot, I'd reckon, or you'd already be supper! You oughta see how red he gets when we tease him. He says it's just 'cause he's angry, but I know he's blushin'!" She said, giggling.
You stop eating and stare at her in horror. "Supper? You're kidding... Right? You don't actually... Eat people?"
"Oh, Johnny hasn't told you that yet?"
Sissy left when you started throwing up. You hadn't been thankful for her company that night.
Your thoughts are interrupted by the door opening, revealing Sissy. You sigh in disappointment, you hated to admit it, but you missed Johnny. You weren't sure why he wasn't coming to see you, but you assumed it was as punishment.
"Hey there sugar, I got some dinner for ya'." She says, handing you a bowl of stew and some water.
"Thanks, but I'm not hungry."
"It's beef." She says with a giggle. "Now eat up, Johnny won't be happy if I let you starve to death."
"Do you... Know why he hasn't come to see me? It's been awhile." You say, eating your food.
"Johnny ain't exactly one to share his feelins', honey. Don't worry, he'll come around. He needs to stop bein' so gosh darn stubborn. I keep tellin' him it'd be nice to have another woman helpin' around the house when Nancy ain't here, but he just says his momma wouldn't have it and shuts me down. I tell 'im she ain't here most the time anyways, but he don't listen." She sighs, looking at you sympathetically.
"Can you tell me about him?" You should stop while you're ahead, but he was all you could think about.
"Well ain't you just a smitten kitten! Let me think.... Ah! Speakin' of kittens, Johnny's real sweet to the stray cats that come around. One of 'em got caught in a trap and he tore Nubbins a new one, tellin' him he needs to pay more attention to where he puts 'um." She says, laughing.
"That's adorable." You say, smiling to yourself. "I bet he acts like he doesn't like them, doesn't he?"
Sissy laughs, "Uh huh, he sure does. He ain't foolin' nobody though." She sighs and grabs your now empty dishes. "Alright sugar, I'll be back to check on you later." She says, leaving you to your thoughts.
*** Johnny sat at the dining room table staring at his food, trying to keep you off of his mind. Your mother must be fucking insane, because that's the only way somebody could EVER love somebody like you! He hadn't been able to get the words out of his head. He replayed them on purpose when he got the urge to go see you, which was often.
He didn't know at what point he fooled himself into believing you could care for him, but it was past time for him to come back to reality. He had to distance himself from you so that when the time came it would be easier to kill you. He could just have somebody in the family do it, but he couldn't bear the thought of not being the last person to touch you. The last person to see life in your eyes...
Your mother must be fucking insane, because that's the only way somebody could EVER love somebody like you! He repeated the words again, willing himself to hate you. God, how he wished he could just hate you. He was so pathetic.
He's jerked out of his thoughts when he hears the phone ring. "Go get the phone, boy. I'm bettin' it's your mama wantin' to have a word with you." Drayton said, a sly grin on his face.
Johnny scowled, getting up to answer the phone. "Hello."
"My dear Johnny, it's good to hear your voice. How is everything at the house?"
Johnny caught the slight edge in his mama's voice as he responded, "Everything is fine here mama."
"Is that so? Drayton told me you've had some girl hangin' around the house for over a month?" She said, making no attempt to hide her displeasure.
"I'm just... Having a little fun. She'll be gone soon, it's nothin' serious."
"Now don't you give me any damn excuses, Johnny. Playin' with your food is one thing, but your little snack is past her expiration date. She already tried to escape once. When I get back, she better be gone. Do you understand me?"
"Yes ma'am."
*** The door opens and you watch as Johnny walks in. You couldn't help but be happy to see him, but your happiness is short lived. In the blink of an eye he's in front of you, holding his knife to your throat. "Johnny.."
"Shut the fuck up!" He yells, and you can hear the nerves in his voice.
"Why are you doing this?" You ask fervently.
"We both knew this had to happen eventually." His voice is thick with emotion that he's unable to hide. He stares at you and tries to picture you as somebody else, anybody else, cursing under his breath when his hand starts to shake.
Your eyes fill with tears as you stare into the dark eyes of the man holding your life in his hands. The man that turned your life upside down and caused you so much pain and suffering had somehow earned a spot in your heart. "Johnny I..." You pause, unsure of what to say. "I missed you".
"Don't pretend you care about me now, it's not gonna help." He says, doing everything in his power to keep his emotions under control.
"I do care about you!" You say, and he presses the knife deeper.
"Don't fucking lie to me! Somebody would have to be insane to love somebody like me, remember?" He shouts, his eyes filling with tears.
"Then I must be insane, because I love you, Johnny!" In that moment you knew it was true, you loved him, and it no longer felt wrong.
"Goddamn it!" He yells, dropping his knife to the ground and bringing his lips to yours. He kisses you slow and hard, letting the tears stream down his face, unable to hold them back any longer.
He pulls back, resting his forehead against yours. "You don't mean that. You can't." His words are shaky and he squeezes his eyes closed, embarrassed you're seeing him this way. "I'm never gonna change."
"I don't want you to change. I want to love the darkest parts of you." You say, wiping his tears and returning your lips to his. What starts off as a gentle kiss soon becomes rough and desperate. Your tongues collide as you press your bodies together as tightly as you can manage, desperate to be closer to one another.
Your hands fumble with his belt as he swiftly removes your clothes, and in no time at all he's lifting you up, positioning himself at your entrance. You remove his shirt and he slides into your wet pussy slowly, sliding a hand between your bodies and groping your chest. His other hand finds the back of your neck, deepening the kiss as he slowly pumps into you.
"I'm sorry. For everything." He says, breathless from the kiss.
"Oh, Johnny. I forgive you."
His lips meet yours again and he picks up his pace, fucking you passionately. You love the way he stretches you out, reaching all the right places. Your moans mingle together as you both get closer to your climax.
"Cum inside of me, Johnny!" You yell as your pussy squeezes around his cock. He obliges, groaning as he fills you up.
He leaves gentle kisses on your lips and up your jawline, then nibbles gently on your ear. "I love you too." He whispers, burying his face in your neck, no intentions of letting you go any time soon.

also oh my gosh there are literally no words for how proud I am of you for that joirnal entry?? I’ve been through hell and back with feeling suicidal and I clawed my way back to life starting exactly the same way but DAMN it’s so hard Yk? And it feels so exhausting and useless?? But seriously I promise it’s not. It’s okay if the actions you’re taking feel like they’re taking a long time to kick in, or it doesn’t rlly feel like YOU yet. One of the hardest things I’ve ever had to learn was to stop waiting for the feeling of peace and joy to just show up and find me, that I had to actively do stuff to help it happen and keep doing it even when it felt like nothing was happening. Sorry ik this was a ramble and I hope it wasn’t too personal but I’m sending you so much support and love and if you ever need to talk I’m here! Also im a huge Jane Austen and hamlet fan :)) keep going, im rlly proud of you and you’re doing rlly rlly well <33
AWWWWWW this means so much to me, thank you so much for telling me this. i'm so so so so proud of you too and i'm so happy for you :} it's so wonderful to hear that other people shared similar experiences but found hope in the end because it makes everything seem a little less hopeless and a little more achievable. thank you for sharing with me what you learned (waaaa i'm going to now make a journal page about things that could make me happy TvT <3)
i wish i had something more to say, a nugget of wisdom to gift you in return for yours, because you're such a star for actually reading my whole journal entry :(( it means alot to me
i honestly always thought that journal entries like that would be bothersome to my followers, but after posting that, i actually did feel a little better and more resolved and mentally clearheaded :) writing it felt like i was cutting off a piece of myself (a diseased piece, but a piece of myself nonetheless) and offering it up into the void like a naive child would bestow a glass bottle containing a whimsical message into the ocean, and i truly did not expect a response but im so happy that i did 🤍
i'll be sure to share my thoughts on hamlet and jane austen's work when i finish reading them !! :)

ok first, before i forget, i don't remember sending that eris ask in but i know it was the night i got drunk and couldn't stop thinking about him lol eris has me by the throat and thank u if you actually write one of my ramblings 🙏
about the tier list, you not liking reading major character death or unhappy ending but like writing it is so funny but also terrifying please have mercy. some of them were surprising but others i expected like i knew dark fic was going to be s tier because you write the best ones. i guess it changes a bit from what you usually write to what you like to read about
turns out i can't send images on asks on anon so 💔 but i can just do a rundown of mine:
- s tier is: slow burn, mutual pining, friends to lovers, arranged marriage, fake relationship, fluff and angst
- a tier: sharing a bed, enemies to lovers, unrequited love, established relationship, huddle for warmth, pwp, soulmate
- b tier: dark fic, in vino veritas, fix it fic, hurt comfort, first kiss
- c tier: amensia, abo, sex pollen, missing scenes, bang or die, humor
- then there's a special row for canon divergence
- and the ones i don't really like are: prangancy fic, baby fic, major character death, love triangle, unhappy ending, crossover, crack fic, body swap, high school au
i want to clarify that unrequited love is pretty high but i usually like it when it turns out not to be unrequited because i like the momentary angst but i like an happy ending
also the aus are hard to rank because what i usually like and read about is already fantasy or magic so they're not really relevant. and they left out the best ones like demon au or vampire au
and the canon divergence has its own row because when there's a oc there's going to be changes but i don't like when those changes are to the point of me barely recognizing the acotar world yk and i don't like when certain things are changed but i don't mind with others (like some fics don't have nyx), i guess that's king of personal for each person. also in other fandoms i tend to like all the characters that end up dead somehow so i like when they're alive or when the fic kind of ignores some of the main plot of the show because it completely changed the dynamics of it at some point or killed basically everyone off, being a fan of anime is torture
also i just read the dark!rhys fic and i love it so much, i need more of him in my life. do you have any more dark rhys fics planned? i like that sjm made him nicer in the books and all but the high lord of the night court being a little darker and leaning more into the morally grey just hits different - 🧶
My gosh I feel so dumb, this was directly above the last one 😭 I’m so sorry
‘thank u if you actually write one of my ramblings 🙏’
I’ve got the first one done!! It will hopefully be going up tonight! I decided to write the friends to lovers one where Eris has just become High Lord + slightly drunken confession just to ease into his character! Hopefully next will be energies to lovers + arranged marriage with a little more CBMTHY-type dialogue 🧡💛
‘about the tier list, you not liking reading major character death or unhappy ending but like writing it is so funny but also terrifying please have mercy.’
I can promise there’ll be no major character death in CBMTHY and it won’t have an unhappy ending—don’t worry :)
It’s only fun when the story is under my control which I think is understandable? I can experience angst within a controlled environment so I don’t have to worry about actually getting upset, which makes it easier 😭
‘turns out i can't send images on asks on anon so 💔’
Oh! 😭😞
‘also the aus are hard to rank because what i usually like and read about is already fantasy or magic so they're not really relevant. and they left out the best ones like demon au or vampire au’
That’s a really good point, I completely forgot about demon/vampire/werewolf aus or the pirate ones? Those ones I would 100% read—especially vampire/demon ones because oh my gosh 😳😳🫣
I think maybe for a fandom that didn’t already have magic and royalty, then the magic and royalty au’s might be fun as a once-every-so-often sort of thing? But I don’t think they’d be a frequent read.
‘also in other fandoms i tend to like all the characters that end up dead somehow’
You made me laugh so hard with that 😭I’m so sorry 🫂🧡💛
!acowar spoiler below!
Like probably a lot of other people, I really loved the suriel, so it’s death made me so sad 😞 There was another ToG character who I absolutely adored (not the TaB one) and Miss Maas had them die and I was so upset 😔
You seem to have the Comfort Character Curse, my condolences 😔🫂
‘being a fan of anime is torture’
You totally just reminded me of a post I saw I think back in 2020/21 saying that Isayama had a dartboard of his characters and he would sit back and just casually kill them off one after another 🥔🧡💛
‘do you have any more dark rhys fics planned?’
I actually have a request for ‘DARK dark (dark, dark), dark’ Rhys or Az smut so I think I’ll write another for the High Lord since I already have one planned for Azriel!! 🧡💛

Hi my dear! I just read through your fic Do You Got Room For One More Troubled Soul?, and it is a delight!
There were so many things I could ramble about your fic, but for the sake of brevity, I’ll try to keep it short.
You are incredibly talented at grounding stakes. When writing, it can be difficult for the reader to grasp concepts at times, especially when one tackles torture and horror. In many cases, the reader can almost dissociate from the work because it feels so outlandish they can’t relate to the pain and terror of the situation.
Your work does not have that problem.
With each hermit’s introduction to Dream and Tommy, you ground their pain and suffering. You demonstrate to the readers how to feel about this situation through their reactions. You make the horror of the situation palpable, which makes us, the readers, mourn along with the hermits for what Dream and Tommy have lost. It’s beautifully crafted, and I commend you for it.
Moreover, you maintain hope in this situation. It would be easy to say Dream is beyond saving, beyond help, and maybe the best thing to do is just make him comfortable. But you instead crafted a narrative that seeks to both heal his trauma and reconcile the atrocities he’s committed. You navigate the difficult journey thet will be Dream’s recovery in your writing, and I am so incredibly proud of you as a writer for doing it.
Our discord server (the Dreblr Minecraft Server) went beseek over this fic. Someone shared it, all of us binged it, and we then ranted about it for a day. If you ever feel lost or need help with ideas, you are more than welcome on that server.
I await for what’s in store for you as a writer. I’ve been enjoying Hermit Craft Season 10 (as I hope you are as well), and it gives me so many idea , for this universe and others. I may ramble in your inbox (if that bothers u lmk and I’ll stop aheuwbwb) bc I am v excited.
Alas, this is already very long, so I’ll spare you no more of your time. I hope you have a pleasant evening, and happy writing!
-Rei
I… I’m crying???? This is so sweet???? Wtf???? Thank you so much????? 🥹🥹
But seriously, oh my gosh, thank you. I’ve never had a fic make so many people this excited, and I’m beyond words happy to hear that you all enjoyed it! There’s more chapters coming, I promise!
…. Okay, I might actually go cry now, this was so sweet! 😭

Okay, okay, okay, so, incoming ramble but I just have to share this idea with someone and since you’ve been doing quite a few posts on physical regression I’mma share this with you <3 :3
Random fic idea I had quite a while ago is that a character somehow is made physically younger, but not mentally younger. No one knows this except for the character who actually got de-aged and instead of telling anyone that they are still thinking normally and not like an actual child, their first thought is, ‘oh my gosh, I can just be completely regressed and baby and have my friends take care of me and they will be none the wiser.’ Only to get outed after sometime by someone else who figures out that they shouldn’t be mentally acting younger, just physically smaller. Then said character having to explain what age regression is and being really scared about whether people are going to understand or not.
Jeez, I really need to stop creating new fics ideas and just work on the ones I've already started. There's too many thoughts and too little time to write them all out. :<
Anyways, thank you for listening to my ted talk /j
OHHHH my god yes. also bonus points if someone totally did know but still went along with it bc clearly there was a reason for wanting/needing to be looked after and cared for
