there’s something about how Stede crossing out DEAD and circling ALIVE on the wanted poster like the silly little lover he is manages to be, like…the heart and thesis of the show all in one.
it’s baffling. it’s goofy. it’s a bit sad. it’s optimistic, despite. it’s love in action. it’s earnest beyond belief.
and—quite literally—it’s choosing live.

chan is in a heated staring contest with his notepad when the door opens, and he knows that it’s you who comes in, but his head is miles away, tangled in an amalgamation of syllables and rhythms. he goes on to forget that you’re here for a short while, poring over the unfinished lyrics in front of him with undivided focus. that is, until he feels a gentle hand on his shoulder.
you’ve just pulled a chair up next to his desk. “lemme see,” you say, gesturing to the notepad. there’s a surprised pause, and then chan places it in your hand, scoots closer to you.
you spend the next two hours talking him through his block, but there are periods when you fall silent to brainstorm or to write something down, and chan takes those quiet opportunities just to look at you: wearing one of his old t-shirts, your hair still damp from your shower, completely concentrated. and he knows, then, that he wants to marry you.
Tumblr media
minho doesn’t realize he loves you in a singular moment. rather, he has a faint inkling for some time, and then the rug is randomly pulled from beneath his feet, and all of a sudden he can’t remember a version of his world that didn't have you at its center.
there are times when he’s especially aware of his feelings, though. like when he throws a witty remark in your direction and your retort comes back twice as sharp. when your eyes and smile light up like lanterns as you talk to him about your passions. when one (or all) of his cats hover at your side as you go about your day. when he returns home after a grueling practice and you’re there to offer him your comfort, no matter his withdrawn demeanor or sweaty skin.
he is a quiet lover, and sometimes he worries that he’s too quiet, that you have no idea what’s going on inside him every time he looks at you. but words have never really been necessary with minho. you know. you just do.
Tumblr media
changbin is greeted by a chilly breeze when he emerges from the gym, and he silently chastizes himself for forgetting to bring an outer layer yet again. but the temperature moves to the back of his mind when he spots you, waiting on the sidewalk, as you said you would. a familiar grin breaks across your face when you see him, and he feels its shape against his lips when he runs over and kisses you, in lieu of hello.
“what are you feeling for dinner?” you ask once he’s pulled away, and he realizes that you’ve pressed something to his chest: one of the hoodies that he keeps at your place, still soft and warm from just coming out of the dryer. and boom—the epiphany hits him, instantly and unequivocally.
he is dumbfounded for a moment, just processing the newfound discovery; and then, out of nowhere, the two of you say the name of the same restaurant at the same time. he swears he never believed in soulmates until he met you.
Tumblr media
hyunjin has always held so many emotions in his heart so fervently, to the point that they sometimes overflow in the form of words that he doesn’t believe, in a tone that he doesn’t intend. and it happened again today, when he spoke to you the wrong way in a moment of pure impulse, and the surprise on your face morphed into poorly-disguised hurt.
a few hours later, the weight of his actions sits heavily on his shoulders. when he lifts his phone to call you, his hands are shaking a little, and a breathy apology spills from his lips the moment he hears you on the other end: “i’m sorry, angel. i’m trying, i promise. i really am.” to which you answer, “i know, hyune. i forgive you. we’ll keep trying together, okay?” and your words pull his heartstrings in a new direction entirely.
he asks if he can come over, you say yes, and he tells you he loves you as soon as you open the door. he’s done hiding his heart from you.
Tumblr media
jisung’s contagious grin and raucous cackle come easily to him for the most part, but there are times when he forgets how it feels to laugh or to breathe, times when he wants only to hide from the world and all of its scariest parts. and when you see his figure in the doorway tonight, his face cast in a nameless shadow, his shoulders sunken in quiet defeat, you understand immediately that this is one of those times.
“do you wanna talk about it?” you ask as he approaches you. silently, he shakes his head: not tonight. but his body language asks for what he cannot verbalize. you extend your arms toward him, and he buries himself in them the second he’s close enough to, his face nestling the crook of your neck, the tension in his limbs melting at your gentle touch. you stay there for a long time, rubbing circles between his shoulder blades, coaxing him back to the ground, back to you.
wherever he chooses to hide, he thinks he’d like to take you with him.
Tumblr media
when felix opens his eyes, the space in the bed next to him is empty, and the faint scent of flour and sugar wafts through the gap beneath his door.
he gets to his feet, throws on some clothes, and wanders in the direction of the smell, rubbing the sleep from his eyes—and the sight that awaits him makes him wonder if he’s still dreaming. you’re standing at the stove, still in your pajamas, hair slightly disheveled from your rest, and there are pancakes in the frying pan before you; sliced strawberries on the cutting board next to the stove. and the look of sheer focus on your face, as if staring at the pancakes will cook them faster, absolutely destroys him. (and he knows in that moment that he wants to wake up to you for the rest of his life.)
with an enamored smile, he wraps his arms around your waist, pulls your back to his chest, and presses a light kiss to the nape of your neck. “morning, beautiful,” he mumbles sweetly. “how fucking lucky am i?”
Tumblr media
being around you makes seungmin feel like a kid with a crush. he smiles brighter and laughs louder. he opens like a lotus in bloom when you say his name. the floaty sensation he gets when you kiss his cheek or hold his hand persists for hours afterward—and none of it makes any fucking sense to him. it’s not that he doesn’t believe in love, but he’s never believed that love could feel like this, straight out of a sonnet.
now, your head is on his shoulder, your body rising and falling in your slumber. seungmin looks at your interlocked hands where they rest on his knee, and at the current track displayed on his lockscreen: “still” by day6, a song about losing and loving, about regret and reminiscence. those bright days between us are over, the lyrics go, and he makes a silent promise to your sleeping form that the bright days between the two of you will never end.
the word "love" still doesn't cross his mind, but it is etched all over his face, and carved into his soul.
Tumblr media
you and jeongin are telling each other about your days over dinner when your phone lights up with an incoming call, and he nearly spits out his mouthful when he sees who it’s from. for a few seconds, the two of you just stare at each other in flabbergasted silence. but then, you raise your phone to your ear: “hi, grandma! to what do i owe this pleasure?”
and the voice of his grandmother comes back through the receiver. she tells you that she’s just gone on an evening walk and found herself thinking of you, so she wanted to see how you’re doing; if you’re taking care of yourself. you rush to thank her, looking entirely flustered, and a bit like you’re about to burst into tears.
with that, the two of you launch into chatter about everything under the sun: grocery store discounts, the recent humidity, jeongin’s bad habits, you name it. and it finally dawns on jeongin how inextricably embedded in his life you have become—and that he doesn’t want it any other way.

“Careful watch your– no, pivot a little, pivot–” 
“I am pivoting! There’s nowhere to pivot to! Why is it so messy?”
You suppress a grimace as you manage to somehow squeeze your way through Spencer’s tiny doorway and into his apartment, the shoe rack on the side dangerously close to his damaged knee. You stumble a little as Spencer grips your shoulders tightly for support, his other hand holding onto a crutch. 
“Maybe we should move into a bigger apartment,” you muse, helping him to the couch. Your gaze shifts to his injured knee, your face falling. “Does it hurt?”
“Only when I think about it. Which is pretty much all the time,” Spencer says, wincing as he finally collapses against the cool leather cushions. “Thank you for doing this.”
You look almost offended at his words as you brush his hair out of his face and into a makeshift ponytail. “Did you think that I wouldn’t?”
He hums as he feels the way your fingers pull lightly at his hair, your nails scraping against his scalp. “Thought you’d get tired of me. After, you know, everything.”
“None of that was your fault,” you remind him swiftly. “This–” you gesture to his knee– “isn’t either.”
He softens, leaning his cheek on your shoulder. You’ve been there for him through everything and he knows what specifically it is you’re referring to. He could see it from the moment his doctors informed you that he wouldn’t take the vicodin they had prescribed to him to soothe his discomfort. His thought process makes sense; he didn’t want to risk it. Regardless, he was left with a growing pain in his leg that didn’t shake even after taking toradol. 
“I’d never get tired of you,” you clarify, squeezing his hands. “You’re too pretty to get tired of.”
He lets out a proper laugh as he squeezes back. “You’re funny.”
“I’m being serious!”
He laughs again, shaking his head adamantly. “Liar.”
“When have I ever lied to you?”
Spencer beams in your direction, pressing kisses against the soft of your jaw. “You’re right.”
A triumphant smile spreads across your face at his words. “Exactly.”
*** 
From his spot on the couch, Spencer watches guiltily as you hustle and bustle about in the kitchen, grabbing plates and filling them to the brim with the food you ordered from the Chinese place he loves. He feels bad seeing you work so hard looking after him; especially when you have your own workload to take care of. He doesn’t even notice that you’ve already placed his portion of food in front of him until you whack him lightly on his head with some napkins. 
“Stop it. I know what you’re thinking.” You shoot him a half-hearted glare as you snap open your chopsticks. “I want to do this. I truly don’t mind.”
“You’re already doing so much,” he insists, “I’m okay, angel, I swear.”
You are not easily convinced and you point to the list of things the doctor suggested you to do in order to ensure Spencer’s speedy recovery. “I have a responsibility, Walter. What will your team do without you?”
“They’ll live,” he assures, reaching a hand out to massage the muscles by your shoulders. “I think you’ve seen me naked more the past two weeks than you have our entire relationship.”
“Well it’s not my fault that you need to bathe,” you argue, stabbing at your noodles. “You love it really.”
His cheeks burn with embarrassment at the accusation. “I do not! It’s humiliating.”
“It’s nothing I haven’t seen before,” you soothe, smiling at him. “Besides, it’ll only be like this for a little while longer.”
“If you consider five months to be ‘a little while longer’,” he quips as he shovels food into his mouth.
You let out a laugh, not finding offence is his sarcastic blow. He thinks you’re a blessing and he figures that you definitely are. Who else can deal with the problems of him being, well, him aside from you? Spencer doesn’t know what he would do without you. How could he when you manage to push all the darkness and negativity away?
“I’m lucky to have you,” he says finally, his gaze on your face. “You’re so good to me.”
You hum in response, wiping your mouth and curling into his good side, draping an arm over his middle. “That’s true. You’re good to me, too.”
He brings his hand over your waist and kisses the side of your face in an act of reciprocation. “You’re beautiful.”
Heat crawls up your neck to your ears at the sudden compliment and you can’t help the silly bashful smile that pulls at your lips. Your mouth opens and closes, deciding on what to respond with before you settle with a simple, “Thank you.”
It’s the honest truth. There’s a look about you that tells him that you don’t believe it, but he doesn’t say anything more to try and convince you. He tells it to you everyday; he’s sure that you’ll end up accepting the compliments more readily. Your being beautiful might have been what had drawn him to you in the first place. Although he isn’t entirely sure. He recalls a certain folktale about invisible stings and how it was tying him to you. There’s something pretty about that thought, the mere idea that you were made for him and he was lucky enough to actually hold you in his arms. 
You’ve turned the television on now, a romance movie playing on the screen with familiar actors. It’s supposed to be a comedy, at least that was what the description on the DVD said, about the main male lead reminiscing about his year that he spent with some manic pixie dream girl. Spencer doesn’t understand how that could be comedic but you seem to enjoy it. 
Spencer has tuned out the movie now, finding entertainment in the reactions you have. Your face morphs into different emotions with each dramatic scene and in that moment Spencer realises one very important thing. 
“I’m gonna marry you one day,” he whispers, his breath tickling the shell of your ear. 
“What was that?” you ask obliviously and you lift your eyes to look up at him. 
“Nothing,” he dismisses, pressing his lips to your forehead. “Just keep watching the movie, angel.”

Morning Epiphany [Higuruma Hiromi]
Tumblr media
an: cockwarming with Hiromi was suggested to me when I opened my requests/ideas for this wonderful man and I immediately leapt on it because YES!
pairing: Higuruma Hiromi x female reader
warnings: cockwarming, reader being the teeniest bit mean to poor Hiro, whining and whimpering from the lawyer…
Masterlist
Tumblr media
“Hiro… it’s so early, why are you in here?”
The sun had barely begun to crest, the earliest rays warming the bedspread that was surprisingly empty. A hand reaching out to your husband’s side confirmed the first stirring of your consciousness, he wasn’t here, and if he wasn’t here then there were only two places he could be.
Despite the lure of sleep trying to coax you back into the cozy haze of dreams, you couldn’t possibly sleep when your other half was missing, and so early too. The blinking lights of the alarm clock signalled the hour and helped to push your feet to the rug by the bed, stretching and pouting.
The bathroom was empty, there was no remnant of steam from the scalding hot showers he took every morning and you scowled at your dishevelled reflection in the mirror. Your hair stuck up at odd angles, eyes puffy from how quickly you got out of bed and your sleepshirt—an old well-worn sweatshirt of Hiromi’s—was creased beyond belief.
Your steps took you towards the office and the scent of freshly brewed coffee that wafted enticingly into your nose. The door creaked on antique hinges, your missing man turning with his brow furrowed from having his concentration broken. The expression shifted into a smile almost immediately, a sheepish smile at that.
“Did I wake you? I didn’t mean to,” he apologised sincerely, settling back in his chair to stretch his arms up and over his head. The wide sleeves of his black t-shirt, now faded to grey at best, pushed back and your eyes dipped to the hint of black happy trail that peeked from beneath the hem with a sigh of appreciation.
Hiromi couldn’t help but chuckle. Hastily he fixed his face with a look of admonishment, one sleek eyebrow rising near to his hairline. “Eyes up here, Mrs Higuruma.”
“Sorry—wait. Why am I apologising? It’s the arse crack of dawn, what are you doing up let alone working?”
His eyes drooped, nervously fidgeting with the pen on his desk.
Before he could respond, you grabbed the back of his chair and scooted it out further from the desk to his confusion. The lines wrinkling his forehead smoothed out when your knee bracketed his hip, followed by the other until you sat straddling his lap. Your fingers ran through the limp strands of the hair hanging near into his eyes, humming at the glorious warmth of his body melding into yours.
“Epiphany moment?” Hiromi offered uncertainly. He was too preoccupied by the soft squish of your hips and backside, hands full of the meat of you, and desperately trying to will his cock not to harden any further. To his disappointment and your triumph, he was failing miserably.
You planted teasing kisses to his jawline, barely-there touches of your lips until you were decorating his throat and prominent Adam’s apple with wet little marks. “Don’t let me stop you, Hiro… you can pretend I’m not here. I’ll be as quiet as a mouse.”
He dropped his chin, staring at you with suspicious disbelief. Swallowing thickly when you offered your best most innocent looking smile, laying your cheek on his shoulders and drawing one of his hands away from where he was pawing at your rump. “Work, if that’s what you want to do.”
Hiromi groaned and looked skyward as if some answer would arrive if he begged for it hard enough. He knew this game well enough, and not once had he won. He didn’t fancy his odds on this particular day either.
It started out fairly uneventful. Hiromi managed to refocus his attention towards the computer screen and the ruling he had been in the middle of reading when you appeared, but soon enough the words no longer made sense. Your fingertips grazed his chest, delicate scrapes of your nails across the cotton hiding his nipples and it was maddeningly distracting.
Instead of calling it out, knowing it would only result in you doubling down your efforts, he exhaled through his nose and shifted in his seat to give some respite to the erection chafing the waistband of his pyjama trousers. Immediately, he knew it was the wrong move. Your pelvis sunk closer to him, rubbing more friction into his aching length and he swore he could smell your arousal hanging heavy in the air.
He did his best to ignore your naughty fingers moving between you, to pretend you weren’t pulling him free and playing in the mess of precum leaking from his tip. His fingers tightened around the mouse in his hand, the sound of plastic groaning from the onslaught of pressure enough to make him blink and loosen his hold.
“You will be the death of me, love.”
The loose fist around his shaft paused. “Keep working or I’ll go back to bed… alone.” You were slick with arousal, the lack of panties leaving a dark stain on the crotch of Hiromi’s pyjamas that didn’t go unnoticed by either of you. The temptation to lift to your knees and sink down onto his cock was building, but you couldn’t reward him so readily for his leaving you in bed this morning. Not until he was a little more desperate, and by the hue of the rash at his neck and dappling of his cheeks, there was still a little ways to go.
Hiromi was failing fast, and he knew you were waiting to pounce and worsen his predicament. Worsen was hardly the right term given how eager he was to be swallowed by your plush velvet-lined walls, but since you were insistent that he continue to work, he wasn’t going to be rewarded until he did. The pen scratched across the surface of his notepad, the ink drying in shaky lines whilst you cupped his balls and rolled them between your fingers and thumb. Honestly, he wasn’t even sure what he was writing made sense but if it gave the illusion of cooperation, he’d write utter gibberish all day long.
You held out as long as you could manage, the burning desire palpable on the dewy apples of your cheek and the heat of your breasts hidden beneath your husband’s sweatshirt. At long last you teased his pulsing cock between your folds, tapping the sticky cockhead against your pert little clit and finally lining him up at your entrance. The muscles contracted around him, that first inch a delicious stretch that pushed you to your limits not to slam right down to his fat balls and cry out from the bliss.
The descent was drawn out, testing your patience and resolve to the limits, as well as forcing stuttering breaths out of Hiromi’s heaving chest. You didn’t chastise the return of his hands, the adoration sweeping through his palms as they raised the hem of your sweatshirt so he could see himself disappearing into your pussy. He fisted the fabric, grasping at your hips with eyes heavy with lust and you simply had to taste him, even only for a moment.
Your lips crashed atop his, tongue licking over the seam of his bottom lip and pressing into his mouth to swallow the whine that crawled from his throat. It echoed inside your head, the urge to roll your hips over and over until he filled your belly with his seed burned like a white-hot flame. Your skin itched, fingers curled into claws that dove into Hiromi’s thick head of hair and you nearly didn’t break your kiss, nearly were consumed by the passion you felt in your heart.
“Hmmmpff.” Hiromi wailed when you finally came to some semblance of your senses, your pelvis flush against his but no longer moving. He stared at you in longing, watching whilst you swiped a finger over your kiss-swollen lips and sucked the remnants of his spit from the pad. The smile you offered was purely saccharine, and his throat itched with the need to bounce you on his cock until you gushed all over him and the chair.
“Please?” He asked on a whisper, aquiline nose nudging into your cheek.
“You have your epiphany moment to deal with mister lawyer, c’mon… you can last a little longer. Let me warm you and once I’m satisfied, I’ll ride you until your legs want to give out,” you purred, mouth at the shell of his ear and leaving a kiss at the bone just behind.
Silently, he begged and pleaded for mercy on his tainted soul, as if some divine intervention was likely to intercept, he knew that wouldn’t be the case. You were the only divine deity in his world and your determination to give him a taste of his own medicine for abandoning the sacred ritual of morning cuddles was written across your features.
A sweat broke out across his brow as he studied the lines of text on the screen without recognising a single word. A drip of arousal dribbled from the spot you united, dribbling over the seam of his balls to stain the leather seat beneath. You clenched, and he crushed the pen in his hand, palm filled with tiny plastic shards that speared his skin.
“Darling… light of my life—I will do anything, anything, if you’ll just ride me,” he whimpered, discarding the busted pen and grabbing up your hands to kiss earnestly across your fingertips then knuckles. Hiromi was barely restraining the buck of his hips, the warmth almost too much wrapped around his dick but without the friction and rhythm of movement… it wasn’t enough.
Your resolve was being tested once more. The subtle wobble of his lower lip and the sincere longing in his whisky-smoked eyes cracked the shell of your conviction. Easing forward in one languid roll of your hips earned you the most delightful and pitiful whimper you had heard in a long time. His head fell back against the headrest of his chair, eyes screwed shut whilst you felt him twitch within your walls. He might just cum like this if you didn’t do something, and actually, you wouldn’t mind that in the slightest.
Never more had you enjoyed cockwarming Hiromi than at this moment, and you vowed to draw it out as long as he could endure.
“Fuck, Hiro… you feel so good. So warm and snug,” you cooed, wrapping your arms around his shoulders and nuzzling into him more. “Five more minutes…”

There isn’t a strike of lightning, no grand epiphany that clues Steve in.
It just comes down to this: he knows Dustin Henderson.
Knows how he looks when confronted with a problem he desperately wants to solve.
“Fuck this,” he’s saying through gritted teeth, pushing down hard on the gaping wound across Steve’s abdomen; he’s doing everything right, Steve thinks with pride, but it’s not enough.
It’s not his fault.
Steve says as much.
But Dustin isn’t listening; he’s just muttering to himself, “Not again,” over and over.
And Steve suddenly feels like he did when dropping the quarter into The Indiana Flyer—the moment just before the song played, already knowing what he would hear.
“Not again?” Steve asks very quietly.
Dustin’s mouth snaps shut. His face is chalk white, and there’s more than just fear in his eyes; there’s guilt too, guilt and a responsibility he should never have to bear.
Steve wants to take it from him.
He lifts his hand, grunting with the effort, and ruffles Dustin’s hair. “Oh, bud,” he murmurs, “you’ve kept trying, huh?”
Dustin’s eyes fill with tears.
Steve tries to hush him, breathing turning shallow from the pain.
“Hey, you—you’ve g-gotta hand it to me, man,” Steve says through a faint smile. “Was… on the right track, y’know? O-obsessed with clocks.”
Dustin gasps out a laugh. It ends on a sob.
“Shut up,” he says, and that’s all—no clever comeback, nothing, even though he always has one.
Steve’s heart breaks for him.
“How many times?” Steve says, but he doesn’t need a reply; he knows enough just from the way Dustin is shaking.
“I—” Dustin swallows, shakes his head. “I don’t…” Oh, Steve thinks, his kid is tired.
“C’mere.” He cups the back of Dustin’s head. “Everyone… everyone else make it?”
Dustin starts to cry.
It’s an answer of its own.
“Shh. Hey. That’s… you can stop now.” Steve pats the back of Dustin’s hand, stills the pressure on his wound. “Listen. Just… just let it run this time. Hey, it’s okay, Dustin. It’s okay.”
“It’s n-not okay, Steve, how can you—”
“Shh,” Steve says again, and maybe this is as much for him as it is for Dustin; he doesn’t want their last conversation to be a fight. He looks into Dustin’s eyes. Smiles. “Christ, I’m so proud of you.”
It doesn’t cover everything he wants to say; there’s not enough time.
I loved growing up with you. I’m sorry. I wanted to be there for you forever.
“Fuck you,” Dustin says, young and angry and so afraid. “Don’t say you’re proud of me, asshole, just don’t—”
Don’t go.
“Okay, fine. You’re a smartass,” Steve drawls, and Dustin lets out a choked giggle before grief takes over again.
“God,” he says, “this isn’t fucking fair. I sh-shouldn’t have to choose—this is—”
“Bullshit,” Steve agrees. “That’s not on you, man. Not your fault if the game’s rigged.”
Dustin closes his eyes.
It’s not so bad, Steve tells himself. He can just… rest for a couple seconds, tell Dustin to get outta here, then…
A faint chime.
Dustin’s eyes open. There’s a sudden gleam to them, shining through the fatigue. Determination.
Hope, despite everything.
“Well then,” Dustin says, “s’a good thing I’m a smartass.”
And then he’s running.
Steve manages to lift his head up with a cry, gets to see Dustin reach a grandfather clock ensnared with vines, because of course he’s not gonna listen to him, he’s such a little shit, and Steve loves him so much—
Dustin reaches up to the glass in front of the clock face, smashes it with his hand.
The world turns white.
The last thing Steve sees is Dustin turning to him with a shaky grin, mouthing, “One more.”
And Steve’s still terrified, but he also thinks of the world’s most stubborn, brilliant kid with a wonky compass, of how many times do I have to be right on the money before you guys just trust me?
It’s a walk along the railroad tracks, stumbling into each other’s lives; it’s just get ready, and you die, I die; it’s being trapped under Starcourt, and Steve left with the one thing that all the drugs, all the pain in the world could not take away from him.
The absolute faith that Dustin would figure something out.

You’re My Peace
Tumblr media
Chef Luca x f!reader
TW: angsty Luca (before his Carmy epiphany), hurt/comfort-ish, cursing, established relationship
AN: I just love him 🥹 lmk what else reader x Luca should get up to! Thank you for reading 🫶
Tumblr media
You weren’t sure what time it was when you finally heard the front door to your apartment open. You’d been in bed for an hour or two, but you couldn’t sleep without Luca softly snoring next to you, looking like your own personal Adonis even in his sleep.
He started rustling around in the kitchen as soon as the door shut, so you decided you’d get up and see what he was doing. Plus, you needed to know why he wasn’t coming to bed.
“Baby, what’s going on?” You ask groggily, startled that every light was on in the kitchen in the middle of the night, “Are you alright?”
“Sorry, my love, didn’t mean to wake you,” He stepped over to you and pecked a soft kiss into your forehead before turning back to the counter.
You stood in silence a moment, trying to make sense of all the utensils and plates Luca was pulling out of the cabinets at 1:30 — no, 1:33, you noticed — in the morning. He’d already been gone all day at school, putting in hours more than required.
“Baby,” You sighed and closed the gap between you, gently grabbing his face and making him look down at you, “Can’t it wait ‘til tomorrow? You have to be tired, Lu.”
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, leaning over you so his lungs filled with the scent of your coconut shampoo. His lips pressed into the top of your head for a moment before he started to speak.
“I’ll be 10 minutes, love, I promise,” He kissed your forehead again, “Then I’ll come to bed.”
You let out a breath you didn’t know you’d been holding, “Jesus, Luca, come on.”
You stepped back as his hands began reaching for the spice cabinet. He shot you an apologetic look before he started grabbing things off the shelf.
“I know, baby, it’s just that Carmy, ah, the bloke I’ve been telling you about-,” He rambled as you searched for any more patience left in your body, “-yeah, he made this, uh, this dish today and I’ve almost got it down—.”
His voice trailed off as he kept opening cabinets and drawers, pulling more spoons and bowls and testing your resilience all the while.
“Luca, please, it’s late—,” You started.
“Really, love, just 10 more minutes.”
“Luca—,” He kept moving, clearly not sensing your impending implosion.
“Baby, come on,” You tried one last time before you couldn’t keep your volume down anymore, “Luca!”
Tumblr media
He instantly dropped the wooden spoon in his hand, turning his full attention to you. He never raised his voice at you, and you’d never yelled at him.
“Please, baby, listen to me,” You started softly, stroking his broad shoulders with a gentle touch, “You know how much I want this for you, and I love you so damn much for your dedication, but I need you to be here when you are here.”
Luca let out a shaky breath, his warm hands reaching up to cup your face tenderly. His slender fingers reached into your hair and pulled you up towards him, pressing his lips into yours in a slow, languid kiss.
He leaned back slightly, far enough to slide his right hand down to his chest, clutching it into a fist and circling his heart. I’m sorry.
You mirrored his motions, dropping your hand down to circle your own heart with a bit more fervor. I’m sorry, too.
You held each other’s gaze for a long moment until Luca closed his eyes and leaned his head into your shoulder. His arms wrapped tightly around your waist and pulled you to him like he was afraid you’d disappear if he let go.
Your own arms drifted around his just as tight. One hand was tangled in his messy curls while the other drew pictures absentmindedly onto his back.
“I just thought I could be the best, thought I was the best,” Luca spoke into your neck, his muscles relaxing as your hands danced over them, “And realizing I’m not, that I never can be, it’s just—.”
“A lot,” You finish for him, helping him not have to think.
“A lot,” He mirrors.
“Hey,” You gently pull his face up to meet your soft gaze, “You don’t have to be the best to be really damn good.”
The corners of his mouth twitch up slightly, almost in a smile, “I know that now. I think I just had to— I don’t know, make peace with that.”
You send him a knowing smile as his lips drift to meet yours again, a little deeper this time.
“Plus,” You begin, “If anyone is going to out-chef you, Chef, it has to be Carmy. He’s like, from another planet or something.”
Luca huffs out a laugh and your heart immediately feels lighter.
“Carm is really good,” Luca chuckles, “He’s got something special.”
“Just as special as you have, Lu.”
He kisses you like he’s trying to pour all of his love into you in just this moment. Your mind swirls as his lips leave yours, batting your eyes open to clear your head.
You placed a peck on his firm shoulder and step away to head back to bed. It’s only a few seconds of clanging until Luca is closing your bedroom door behind him.
“Dishes’ll be there tomorrow,” He mumbles as he climbs into bed, his weight practically collapsing into the plush surface.
You slid into place beside him, one leg tangled over his as his strong arms pull you into his chest. Luca’s warm hands sent a shiver up your spine.
“I should’ve just talked to you, my love. I’m sorry,” Luca stroked his thumb over your cheekbone.
“Heard, Chef,” You smirked but meant it just the same, “Can’t scare me off that easy.”
Luca smiled and tucked you into his chest, wanting to hold you as close as he could. His heart beat evened out as he felt your own, strong and steady, drawing him out of his anxiety.
You ran your fingertips of Luca’s toned back as he pressed gentle kisses into your cheek and neck. The two of you shared a comfortable, warm silence for a moment before a thought popped into Luca’s head.
“I thought I had to make my own peace,” He pulled away from you so he could see your face, “But I think you are my peace, love. You are always the answer.”
Your eyes prickled with tears, seeing the truth and adoration in Luca’s gaze. He’s saying all this while you’re trying to figure out how he thinks he’s the lucky one.
You wrack your brain for the right words, but all that comes out is, “I love you so fucking much, Lu.”
Luca stared down at you lovingly, planting needy kisses onto your lips.
“I love you just the same, my peace.”
————
It wasn’t more than a month before a delicate peace dove tattoo showed up on Luca’s forearm. Followed closely by a framed portrait of he and Carmy on the wall in your kitchen.
“Both sent me to war,” He teased when you questioned the timing, “But both brought me peace.”

would you do number 9 with sydney lohmann?? thank you!!!
epiphany. (prompt 9, sydney lohmann)
Tumblr media
you swear you didn’t mean to disappear.
it’s just all been a little too much. you’ve been under so much stress lately, from your club, from your national team and from your school work.
so you turn your phone off and leave your apartment early, intent on clearing your mind.
it’s only for the day so you are definitely not expecting the number of missed calls you see when you switch your phone back on.
sydney alone is responsible for over twenty calls and just about forty texts.
your eyes are wide as you scroll through them, in the elevator of your apartment building.
cycling through munich has done it’s job and you are feeling more like you again.
but seeing all her worried messages fills you with anxiety again. you’re positively sure you hadn’t made any plans with her for today.
the doors open to your floor and you wheel your bicycle out to be nearly tackled to the ground.
as it is, your bicycle almost topples over.
‘oh thank god you’re here.’
her words are muffled by your shoulder but the relief in them is evident.
‘sydney hey i was just about ready to call you back.’
your girlfriend draws back, giving your shoulder a light push.
‘don’t ever do that again!’
her usually hazel eyes are shining with tears, her cheeks blotchy and red.
‘i’m sorry. i didn’t think you would be worried.’ you say, touching syd’s face anxiously.
‘didn’t think i would be worried?’ she echoes in disbelief.
‘you disappeared for a whole day. you weren’t answering your phone and no one knew where you’d gone. what if something terrible had happened or you-’
the blonde is working herself up again, her voice growing in volume.
with wide eyes, you interrupt, ‘sonnenschein i’m okay! i promise.’
syd inhales and exhales slowly, ‘you’re okay? you sure?’
‘yes i’m completely alright. i simply turned my phone off so that i could unwind from the stress i’ve been under recently. i spent the day cycling through munich.’
your girlfriend sighs, leaning her forehead against your chest.
‘you’re okay.’ she mumbles.
‘totally okay.’ you reassure her, wrapping your arms around the german woman cautiously.
‘sorry for worrying you.’ you apologise.
‘s’okay. just please give me some warning if you ever decide to fall off the face of the earth again. i need to know that you’re safe because i care about you. i love you.’ she whispers, holding you tightly.
‘you love me?’
shock colours your voice and your surprise is clear.
‘course i do. i have been in love with you for months. now swear that you’ll give me a heads up next time!’
‘i swear.’ you honestly tell her.
sydney relaxes, ‘good.’
‘and syd?’
‘yeah?’
‘i love you too.’

Heyy, can I request best friends to lovers with suguru geto pls? Maybe where reader is helping on the star plasma mission but gets a little jealous of Riko bc sugu is so focused on the mission that he hasn't spent much personal time with her?
Also! I adore the fic where sugu and reader are best friends on a mission together! Good work 👏
dazzling haze, mysterious way about you, dear
summary: on your last night on the star plasma mission, a trip for water becomes an interrogation.
wc: 1.5k
cw/tags: best friends to lovers, swearing, mild angst, satoru is the king of being unserious and you're having none of it
note: so many suguru fics that i will gladly provide🫡 also i'm sorry this took so long, i just started fall semester so my time has been a little limited lately. but thank you for the ask, i hope you like it!
likes, reblogs, and replies are always appreciated :D
Tumblr media
It’s chilly in Okinawa, much colder than you imagined it would be. Despite the comfortable airflow of AC in your part of the hotel suite, something about the environment still felt stifling. It felt too empty, the bed too big and the sheets too barren. Water, you decide. Let’s get water and some fresh air.
Your intentions are abruptly thwarted by an idiot in the sitting room.
“Aw, come to check if I was okay?” Why do I even bother? You turn on your heel and head back in the direction of your bedroom, leaving Satoru pretzeled in his armchair. You’d just have to figure out how to fall asleep a different way, one that didn’t involve a change of scenery. Still, a loud whisper calls out to you as you make your way back down the hallway. “Hey, wait! Why are you actually up?” Giving him a skeptical look, your shoulder finds the side of the door frame and you cross your arms defensively. 
“Couldn’t sleep, duh. Why else would I be out here?” 
“Okay, grumpy, don’t duh me. I’m just wondering since you usually sleep the deepest out of all of us. Well, you and maybe…” His voice trails off and you watch the gears start to turn in his head. He knew there would be only one reason why you weren’t sleeping well. You shoot him a sour look preemptively and he narrows his eyes in suspicion. “Is something wrong between you and–”
“Alright, stop talking,” you state bluntly, pushing off the wall and finding your way to the corner of a sofa next to him. You want to slap the arrogant, aware-of-his-victory smirk off his face, but the daggers you’re staring into him are deflected by a shield of self-satisfaction. “Stop smiling like that, asshole.”
“Sorry, I just can’t help but laugh in the face of your suffering,” he shrugs with a patronizing lilt to his voice. You scoff and throw a pillow at him, to which he catches with one hand. Infinity off, you notice. He never turns on Infinity if it’s you, or Shoko, or Suguru with him. “Both my best friends are idiots in love, and both are suffering!”
“I think suffering is a little much.”
“Nope. It’s a little embarrassing, really.” His tone has turned to unabashed teasing and your face heats a little bit from pure indignancy. There’s no way Satoru put two and two together, right? Shoko’s epiphany was understandable; she seemed to always be watching, someway or another. Nanami only learned because Haibara figured it out first. You weren’t, however, anticipating the king of living in his own world to confront you. You put up a wall of confusion to hide the fact that he was poking dangerously close to your greatest secret. 
“What the hell are you talking about?”
“Don’t play dumb. Or do, I don’t really care. This is entertaining.” He flashes a condescending grin that makes your blood boil. Yet, despite your best efforts, you couldn’t find the courage to leave. Retreating felt like running away, and you were determined to withstand Satoru’s stubbornness. 
“You are the biggest asshole to walk this Earth, Gojo Satoru,” you bite, shrinking away a little bit when uncannily blue eyes burn into your retinas. Unease sits in your stomach as he stares at you like he knows every single one of your thoughts and memories. It’s a feeling you wouldn’t wish on anyone, being the sole target of the strongest sorcerer on the planet. It had your forehead perspiring and knee bouncing unconsciously.
“And you are utterly in love with Geto Suguru,” he states. 
“How would you know that?” You sputter, immediately back on the defensive. 
“How could I not? You’re staring at him eight days a week, 25 hours a day.” You wish you could summon a fork from your domain and stab his stupidly determined eyes. Still, you think gaslighting the strongest sorcerer and your nosy best friend is a plausible option. 
“You’re out of your mind.” He sticks out his tongue defiantly. 
“Am not.”
“Are too.”
“Am not, no take-backs.” You groan and lean back into the cushions, a hand coming up to cover your tired eyes. “So, are you mad at him or something?” 
“I don’t owe you any explanation,” you snap, but with significantly less fervor than before. He’d caught you. 
“You don’t,” Satoru agrees. “But, I also know you’re dying to get it off your chest.” You peek out at him from behind your fingers and he’s still staring at you expectantly. “Well?” You exhale deeply before speaking, stalling the inevitable. 
“I’m…angry?” It’s more of a question than a statement and he snorts haughtily. 
“You don’t sound very sure.” 
“I hate you,” you glare. Of course, he wouldn’t take seriously anything you’re trying to verbalize.
“No, you don’t. Continue,” he ushers you on with a wave of his hand. “Why are you angry?”
“It’s dumb,” you mutter indignantly, silently praying he gets bored and drops the subject. However, the honored one is relentless.  
“You have a crush on Suguru. Can’t get much dumber than that.”
“What about being jealous when we aren’t in a relationship?” 
“You don’t need to be in a relationship to be jealous, you know.”
“Yeah, but it feels so wrong to want him when we’re supposed to be focused on the mission. I just want to make sure he’s okay.” 
“And, you want him to make sure you’re okay?” He’s right on the money and you despised it. 
“I guess so.”
“You know, he already does that about four million times a day,” he says, like the information should be obvious to you. “Check on you, ask if you ate, bring you water, the usual. It's up to you how you want to interpret that, but I think it's clear as glass.”
You exhale again, leaning forward to rest your elbows on your knees and your face in your hands. “I don’t know what to do, Satoru. I can't think clearly when he's around and I feel so immature.” 
“You’re not asking the right person for advice, you know.” You stiffen at the voice coming from the darkness of the hallway, his voice. Three thousand trains of thought derail all at once when he steps out into the moonlight of the room, looking absolutely stunning despite having just woken up. “I don’t know who you’re talking about, but you must be really desperate if you’re going to Satoru for advice before me,” he jokes as he sits down next to you on the sofa. He’s in such close proximity that you can feel the warmth radiating off his body and faintly smell his shampoo. 
“And the world must be ending if the deepest sleepers I know are both awake at the same time,” Satoru adds, shooting you a knowing look for half a second before returning his focus to Suguru. “If you two are taking over watch for a few minutes, I’m gonna go take a shi–”
“Please, leave before you finish that sentence,” Suguru interjects as Satoru’s body lankily disappears down the hall. You’re suddenly struck by an unwavering feeling of awkwardness, something you’ve never felt before with Suguru. He must have sensed the way your body tensed up, too, since he respectfully positions himself away from you ever so slightly. “Nightmare?” You shake your head, too exhausted and too emotionally drained to answer. “Thinking?”
“Mhmm,” you hum, fiddling with your fingers. You can feel his dark eyes staring at you, but you don’t look up at him for fear of him seeing the burning shame on your face. “Just thinking a little too much about the mission, is all.” 
“Just the mission?”
“Yeah,” you lie, and a glance at his face reveals a smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. “What has you so entertained?” He chuckles softly under his breath, the faint light catching the sharp outline of his jaw. Fuck, you think. He’s so beautiful. 
“You’re a terrible liar.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“I’ve been awake since I heard the door of your room creak open,” he informs you and your stomach drops to your knees. “So I–”
“Heard everything,” you finish and put your head back into your hands, face on fire. “Just ignore whatever I said, rationalize it as a weird-ass dream or something–”
“Why would I wanna forget what you said?”
“Because you have bigger things to focus on,” you laugh, a little cynically.
“And I’m only able to focus on them because I have you to ground me,” he replies nonchalantly.
"What do you mean?"
“I like you too, genius. I thought it was obvious that I can barely see straight when you’re within a ten foot radius.” You smile, genuinely this time, and scoot back closer to him until your shoulders are touching. Carefully, your pinky reaches for his and eventually interweaves all of your fingers together. He lets you rest your head on his shoulder, inhaling deeply against your temple. 
“Can we do something about this after the mission is over? I don’t want to put more stress on either of us,” you whisper. 
“Of course, we can,” he murmurs, pressing the lightest kiss to your forehead. “Take your time; I’m already all yours.”
“You’ll wait for me?”
“However long you’ll let me.”

Can we have a chapter snippet🤞
yes! here is a teaser for your patience, since it's taking me longer (and killing me, in the best way) to edit this 40K chapter...
The snowflakes had settled on his coat, melting slowly in the confused warmth of the apartment and the cold wind from the outside, where he’d stupidly left the door open.
His eyes were filled with confusion, gaze moving from you to the duffel bag in your hands. The wheels clicked in his head, and oh, to know what went through Hyunjin’s mind when he put two and two together. You would kill to know how his mind worked, especially right now. His lips parted, but before he could say anything, you said, “What are you doing here, Hyunjin?”
His brows furrowed as some kind of epiphany sank in, “Are you going somewhere?”
It wasn’t an answer to your question, and you had no energy to justify yourself right now, “That doesn’t concern you.”
“What do you mean?” He took a step up tentatively like if he stepped too close, you’d run away. But you were, weren’t you? You were running away. You didn’t want to talk to him, not when all of your latest conversations with Hyunjin had ended in heartbreak.
You had made up your mind, and you were going home. He obviously didn’t want you in your life, as he’d explicitly stated every time. So why the fuck was he at your doorstep?
You looked him in the eye, a bubbling anticipation rising within you at his possible reaction.
He obviously wouldn’t care though, would he? He wanted you gone too.
You swallowed, speaking clearly so he wouldn’t misunderstand, “I’m leaving, Hyunjin.”
“What?” A flash of confusion crippled his features. Just then, Jeongin’s voice carried through the stairwell, and you heard his footsteps as he ran up the stairs, yelling, “The taxi’s here! I already put your suitcases in the trunk.”
Hyunjin frowned, “Your suitcases? What is he talking about?”
Helpless, you stared at him. You had no clue how to explain this to him because it would mean admitting that you were wrong about everything. About moving here, about the classes, about Jieong… You weren’t going to be weak in front of him.
His cheeks were red, courtesy of the quickly developing storm outside. It just meant you needed to get out of here as soon as possible, you couldn’t wait around for your train to get delayed because of the increment weather. It was fitting, because the snowstorm matched your turmoil. You tightened the grip on your bag, taking a step ahead, and your voice didn’t waver as you said, “It means that I’m going home, Hyunjin. To Daejon.”
“I’m sorry…what?” His eyes widened.
You stepped closer, lugging your bag with you, “You heard me…” Finally, you came eye-to-eye with him in the middle of the staircase, “I never should have come here. It was my mistake. So you don’t have to worry about me being in your life anymore, and since you’re probably never coming back to Daejon then….” You swallowed, staring at him, and suddenly it was harder to speak the following few words, “Then… I guess this is goodbye, Hyunjin.”

WHATS GOOD MIO!!! I am now here with my request 😎 if you need more information about this request feel free to DM me! anyways….
Now, May I request Lucifer Morningstar with a GN!Reader whos a Gyaru(O)? Just to explain the lore of Gyaru, If you know, Gyaru originated in Japan in the 90’s as a rebellion against the stereotypical beauty standard of having pale skin and dark hair, these gyarus — Gals or perhaps, Guys — were very flashy and outgoing, now other people except Japanese people wear Gyaru(o) and they are usually called “Gaijin Gyaru(O)” and it means a gyaru who doesn’t reside in Japan, Gyaru(O) has many sub-styles such as Hime, Agejo, Rokku, Manba/Banba, and much more from this wikipedia.
Thank you so much! I hope this isn’t too much and have fun! =)
WHATS GOOD BRAAAHH !?
this concept is crazy cool haha!! i really tried to do my proper research but if this is considered offensive in anyway shape or form, please tell me and i will either rewrite it or take it down!!
also i’m so sorry this took so long jax haha, i was bit nervous going into this because this is something i’m not that educated about, and i have definitely been procrastinating requests lately lol, so my deepest apologies!!
from what i gathered, gyaru seems to be a japanese clothing/makeup style with a bunch of variety and levels, but if i’m wrong please correct me haha
also the gif is from one of my moots so, little shoutout to her !! haha
Warrnings: Possibily inaccurate representation of Gyaru
Tumblr media
Lucifer Morningstar x GN!Gyaru!Reader
Lucifer didn’t really know what ‘Gyaru’ was until he met, or started dating, you!
“Oh, yeah, I’m really into Gyaru.” You said to the blonde at the other side of the table whilst on your first date, you were trying to ask questions to get to know eachother, and you asked what he was interested in, and he said rubber ducks, which hey, everyone’s got a weird thing their into, so you don’t judge.
“Oh my golly, I love that band, we have so much in common, we really need to go see them!! With that one Gearoo guy on the drums who just ba-da-duh-bey!—” Lucifer rambled, even though he was very far off, he was just trying to have common interests, and on that note; he pronounced ‘Gyaru’ so wrong…
“Oh, their not a ba—” You began, before Lucifer let out a ‘Ohh’ before beginning again.
“Gee, that’s my bad, I have a bit of an old man brain, with a daughter at home and all, her and her little friends! Heheh! Sometimes I just go coo-coo-coo! Sorry, wow, I’m just crazy..” Lucifer rambled once more, his voice trailing off at the end, as if he had an epiphany, giving an awkward, and slightly cheery chuckle, slapping his knee softly, before making awkward eye contact with you with a nervous but toothy grin. Yep, you loved him already. He has zero idea how you still gave him a chance after that.
Once Luci actually learns what Gyaru is, he genuinely does find it quite interesting.
He would be tempted to try it out, maybe a makeup look or a fit, but nothing too extreme, he’s still dipping his toes in haha
Also, he’s incredibly supportive, he loves admiring you as you get ready and pick out something to wear or do your makeup or whatever and however you get ready!!
If he has a meeting, he will definitely have you style him a sick looking outfit!!
Overall, he’s very supportive, the fact that your supportive of his odd duck obsession, he loves, so he owes it to ya :)

warnings: smut, dry humping, making out, hickeys, exhibitionism (if you squint), and breast fondling.

synopsis: as someone who is scared and anxious of the pouring rain, rin can’t stop himself from doing his very best to distract you.
aged up characters | please read at your own risk!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
it’s cold, so, so cold. the rain easily silences any other sound you may hear, and it overwhelms you. the uneasy body that’s almost slouched in the passenger seat belongs to you.
“i’m sorry, i know you’re tired from practice. i was supposed to drive us home so you could rest but you ended up driving since the rain is too intense and-” rin listens to your ramble of apologies, but doesn’t stop you. however, you catch yourself with a lump in your throat when you notice rin pulling up in the nearest gas station on the highway.
“rin! you don’t have to stop driving because i don’t like it! i know you’re still tired and-” rin forces you to look at him, his fingers pinching your cheek for attention. “i know. i’ve heard you saying the same thing for the past, what, ten minutes?” you bite your lip, assuming that rin has reached his limit for the night. although that’s not the case, you’re only too distracted by the anxious feeling from everything around you.
unfortunately, you don’t hear what rin told you, and even if you did, he doubts you’ll listen to it. so, he looks at the outside of his window, watching the hefty clouds of the night sky pour down heavy rainfall before coming up with an idea to pass the time and to—hopefully—help you out.
“go in the back of the car.” rin gently grabs the hands you’re using to cover your ears to guide you in the rear. “what?” you speak out, eyes anxious with how flashes of light encase your vision from the storm. it’s getting worse now, as the appearance of light gets accompanied by the clang of thunder seconds after. “you heard me, did you not?” rin repeats his words, urging you to listen to him. unsure of what’s fully happening, you sit down in the middle seat at the back, hands starting to pick on the threads of your pants, crumpling the material harshly. “move over.” rin suddenly follows after you, his tall figure having difficulty in squeezing himself through the tight space because of the car console.
itoshi rin is the epiphany of a distraction. be it his looks, skills, or even personality—he’s one big distraction.
sometimes, it’s a pain. but right now? it’s a blessing.
however, the storm is unforgiving.
so, rin maneuvers your body to lay on the back seat, and a palm under your head as he gently lowers you down on the leather. “just look at me, stop looking anywhere else.” he says, stretching your legs to drape over his lap. and you do. you stare at teal eyes that nearly looks like it’s glowing in the dark, wisps of dark hair cascading down his face as his body slightly hovers over you.
“okay.” your breath is still audibly shaky, chest heaving as cold fingers now drag up the sides of your body. “tsk. calm down, will you?” rin whispers, almost annoyed, yet he states it in the softest way possible. however, your eyes go shut when another bright shine enters the car’s windows. “can’t, rin.” your body shivers, and the rain pours down heavier. with a sigh, rin’s lips touch your forehead, trying his best to keep the both of you as comfortable as possible.
rin’s fingers toy at the hem of your shirt, cold fingers contrast his warm cheeks. “rin?” you murmur, running a hand through his hair, attempting to pull his head away from you to figure out his intentions. “stop that.” he breathes out; taking your hand away from his hair and placing it between the two of you, kissing your fingers slowly as gentle hands caresses your palm. then, he pushes your fingers closer to your face, your own skin touching your lips as rin leans down. a tease of a kiss, perhaps. although it doesn’t last too long. because one or two pecks later, rin goes impatient with his own antics.
abruptly, he removes your fingers blocking the parts of your lips that he once could not adore, deciding that his tongue will be the first thing it meets. little by little, you open your mouth, letting rin feel every bit of your ragged breath. you almost breathe out a moan, but the sudden shock of rin’s cold fingers dragging from your warm neck and down to the underside of your shirt halts it.
almost, you forget about the thunderous rain outside. well, perhaps this works too—as a distraction, that is.
when wet lips make a ‘pop’ sound in parting, rin pants a bit, smoothing his thumb on your flustered cheek. “color, love?” he asks, voice merging with the whistles of wind outside of the vehicle. “yellow…just go slower, please.” rin hums, and his hand retreats from your abdomen's skin. however, rin does rest it under one of your clothed tit, while continuing to kiss you deeply and slowly—but this time on your neck, leaving light hickeys all over—before you take a hold of his hand to guide it higher and let it rest directly on top of your breast.
gently, rin squeezes the flesh. and he finally earns a moan from your sweet mouth. so in return, you attempt to squeeze your legs around rin's waist. although the tight, limited space in the back of his car begs not to, you manage to bring him closer. your crotches desperately meet, feeling every crevice of fabric that’s taut because of rin’s growing erection.
“love, how ‘bout now? color, please…” rin suppresses a string of whines on the warmth of your neck, his body stiff. with your breath still rough and mind racing not only from the intimacy but also the anxiety that seems to not falter—you’re not able to speak. as your vision is practically blocked of most light sources by rin’s head, you navigate your hand to where rin’s occasional toying with your breast is. when you lift his hand up and away from your body, he feels unfortunate that you decide to halt him. at the very tip of the iceberg, rin thinks you’re telling him to stop.
somehow, you’re more aware of the storm’s raindrops echoing inside of the car along with the flashes of lightning once more. then you realize it’s because of rin’s body trying to sit up and away from you.
“no, no- don’t go away.” you whisper desperately, rushing to place rin’s hands on your thigh. “green, rin. couldn’t say…” another blast of lightning and thunder makes you flinch, rin’s fingers dances back and forth on your thigh for comfort. his hand creeps higher on your thigh, knuckles teasing near your clothed cunt. which, inevitably, makes you flinch too. “hm?” his body is close to yours again, his erection rubbing against your thigh instinctively. “mind’s too occupied. ‘m sorry.” you let out a hot exhale, warm enough to produce moisture on the cold car windows.
rin only nudges his head down to your stomach, biting the end of your shirt and lifting it so that it’s right above your breasts. “just focus on this, alright? i'm right here.” rin mutters, kissing one of your tits before leaving a sloppy line of saliva all over it. you groan, your nipples perking while being confined by your bra adds an extra sensation other than rin’s active tongue and teeth playing around the skin that’s spilling out of your brassiere.
amidst soft moans emitted from your mouth, rin’s knuckles glides against your sweatpants, right at where your clothed cunt is designated to be. it traces down your slit, rin feeling the warmth he’s grown addicted to through the layers of fabric.
you moan louder this time, grinding your hips against his teasing fingers. “you want it like this?” rin smiles against your chest, looking up at you and your pleasured expression. “mm. don’t wanna make a mess-” each whimper from your mouth seems to get louder, but how could it not? with the way rin’s knuckles press harder on your clit directly in such a way that’s electrifying, you’re body begs for more. however, you’re too hyperaware of the sounds you make. so you bite your lip, trying to silence yourself as much as possible.
rin notices the sound of the rain pouring being louder than your melodic voice, and that’s not right to his ears. “come on, love. you don’t like the rain being loud, right? go on, moan.” your pussy has already soaked your underwear, so much that rin can practically feel your wetness seep into your pant’s cloth. two fingers tease your clothed entrance, exactly how rin would typically do it when he fingers your hole, and it frustrates you. because it’s too much—yet too little. your body jerks as rin once more encourages you to moan loudly. “people might..ah…hear-” rin bites at your collarbone, making you gasp and moan almost the way he wants you to. “i don’t care about them. they probably won’t either.” his voice is low, and his shoulders slowly shrugging adds to your arousal even more.
rin’s fingers play with you a bit more, different strokes and pressures riles you up in a way you never knew could happen before. you’re nearing the edge, and rin knows it. your moans and whimpers are getting thinner, becoming higher pitched pants of air than usual. your hips chases the feeling, and rin helps you through it. “h-how about y-you? ahn- feels so-” you try to lift your thigh up to create any form of friction with rin’s erection, which he weakly accepts, but the both of you know it’s not really enough. “it doesn’t matter. i’m not the one who needs distracting, love.” he grunts, curling his fingers along your clit for your pleasure.
when you finally cry out one last moan before your orgasm, rin captures your lips to take in your filthy noises of pleasure. as your lower half still shivers while your back arches from the leathered seats, rin’s tongue is messing up your mouth: saliva mixing with one another as some trickles away from your mouth and onto the side of your flushed face.
“i didn’t think you’d actually cum like this.” rin takes his time feeling the soaked area of your pants, he almost wants to look at it—if he could. rin attempts to cover a giggle with a cough, although it doesn’t work, because you catch on and slap his shoulder. “you can’t just say that! it’s embarrassing!” still hazy from your orgasm, you hide your heated face on rin’s neck. “doesn’t matter, though. it worked didn’t it?” rin lifts your body up, and along with his, he sits properly in the backseat while you’re slumped on his lap. his numb hand from acting as your makeshift pillow reaches up to your face, thumb touching your cheeks as he looks at you with a soft expression and you tilt your head a bit to the side, looking at him in wonder.
“you got distracted from the rain, love. isn’t that right?” only now do you notice that the storm has subsided, time flew by just like that. and the only thing you can hear is rin’s uneven breaths almost matching yours.
“yeah. i guess you’re right.”

When Poppy and Branch start to have some problems during their romantic relationship Poppy starts to freak out.
Similar to the second movie where they become out of sync during their friendship, they’re going to have problems during their romantic relationship too. It happens.
At first Poppy and Branch both have their own moments of “what’s going on here?” And try to excuse themselves to figure out why they’re not lining up anymore with their thoughts or ideas or suggestions on things. It starts with something small like picking a flower color for an event then snowball into an argument over the cake flavor.
Branch would have an epiphany from someone that even in the most synchronized relationships where everything and everyday seems perfect, there’s always a pebble to trip you. That’s what they’re having, there’s something tripping them and it’s not about what that thing is, it’s about how they react. It could have been a small thing where they both laugh it off and he lets her pick or she lets him, but they chose to freak out over no longer reading each others thoughts.
Branch realizes it’s growth in the relationship, that yeah they fight sometimes, but becoming disconnected from each other for a bit is a good thing cause it’s a reminder they’re their own troll. Just cause he knows her every favorite song he has to listen to it all the time to make her happy. He can pick his own songs too, even if they’re sad.
All the while Poppy is having a freak out of her own because they’re not suppose to fall out of sync. He’s her boyfriend, her future prince consort, her future husband, they can’t fall out of sync. So she just agrees to everything Branch says or does even if she doesn’t agree or like it to try to force themselves into being in sync again.
Causing a massive ball of confusion for those who know Poppy very will, she’d never pick tree bark flavor biscuits over double rainbow raspberry cupcakes, what’s really going on? She’s drives herself crazy because everything he’s picking isn’t something she’d pick, but she doesn’t want to risk them breaking up because of their differences showing again. Honestly, she’s just a very worried girlfriend because she really really loves Branch and doesn’t want to lose him over something like the color of tomorrow’s banner. Which he thinks is dumb anyways so he picks a random color of brown.
Branch does catch on though and stops her from agreeing to everything. Saying they just need to talk it out, but she kinda doesn’t want to because that means possible break up? Really it’s her own insecurities coming up since she felt heartbreak from Creek and she’s worried Branch might do the same, break her heart not feed her to Bergens.
After a while, they both realize it’s just a bump in the road and they don’t need to fall down into a rabbit hole of being worried of being out is sync cause that means they’re both growing. Branch is becoming more of a troll that takes part in the village who now likes double rainbow raspberry cupcakes, and Poppy realized that Tree Bark Biscuits aren’t so bad. (With enough sugar put into it.) Their always favorites aren’t going to be their always favorites, it could be always for that moment, but they’re getting older and learning to appreciate the others taste and change and they have to learn to accept it or not.
Sorry I’m rambling now, bbbyyee!

⇝ 11 - (✍︎︎) actual (but not really) first date
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Someone’s here for you!” Lumine called out from the door since she was the one who opened it.
“I’m on my way, hold up!”
Lumine gives you a teasing look as you walk passed her to greet Scara— no, Kuni.
“Kuni! Did you wait long?” You asked kindly and he gives you nothing but silence. You bite your lip, ‘Okay maybe calling him Kuni is still weird for him and it feels weird on the tongue calling him that name.’
You hear some commotion coming from the living room which isn’t really that far from the front door. “Lumine, are you okay?”
“Everything is fine here! You guys should get going now though.”
“Oh right!” You look back at Scaramouche and smiled kindly. It seems like you’ve been smiling a lot when you’re with him these past few weeks. “Let’s get going then!”
-
“An amusement park?” Scaramouche deadpanned as he looked at the surrounding.
“Yeah? Why, is there something wrong?”
“Isn’t this too childish?”
“So immature.” You huffed. “You’re the one being childish for thinking that we’re too old to be going here.”
“I wasn’t thinking that.” Scaramouche denied.
You sighed, “Look, there’s no such thing as being too old to have fun.” You reach your hand out to him. “So stop acting like a grumpy old person and try to enjoy, okay? You’re gonna scare some kids frowning like that.”
-
“Ooh, look at these.” You pointed at some headbands. “Aren’t they cute?”
“They’re okay.” Scaramouche only glanced at them with no interest.
“Hm.” You grab one and put it on his head.
“Wha- hey!” Scaramouche tried to protest, he looked at you incredulously.
“They made you cuter.” You grinned slyly. “I need to take a picture of this.”
Scaramouche scowled. It was times like these that he was glad that when he’s flustered only his ears flush bright red, so it’s not so obvious unless you try really hard and focus on his ears. Scaramouche reached for one of the headbands and puts it on you.
“There. Now, we’re even.”
“You’re the one paying for these, right?” You smiled cheekily.
“Do I have to? I don’t want them.”
-
“Have you had cotton candies before?” You curiously wondered since Scaramouche kept eyeing the stall for them.
“Huh? Of course I have!” Scaramouche huffed.
You scrutinized him closely, “Really?”
“Really.”
“Why were you being so defensive about it?”
“I wasn’t!” He quickly answered back.
“Oh, what’s this?” You smirked at him. “You’re scared I’d tease you?”
“I didn’t really have the time to try them in the past.” And for a moment you could see how he seemed melancholic before it was washed away like how the waves wash up the shore. You were startled, but ultimately you felt bad.
‘He must have not gotten a good childhood. That’s probably why he isn’t fond of his real name. Maybe calling him Kuni was an inconsiderate move on my part.’
You pull him along to the stall, “Let’s go buy some then, this one’s on me.”
-
“Wanna go try the ferris wheel?”
“Oh?” Scara’s lips quirked upwards. “Isn’t this the place where people usually have their first kiss?”
“Hey.” You glared at him as a warning.
“How naughty. Were you planning to kiss me?”
You groaned, “Ugh, you’re bearable until you open your mouth. Besides aren’t you the naughty one for thinking that was my intention?”
“No.” Scaramouche blankly looked at you.
“What a weird logic.”
-
A comfortable silence surrounded the two of you inside the ferris wheel and both of you were content with that. You didn’t know why, but somewhere in your conscience tugged at you to apologize. The atmosphere was getting to you.
“Sorry.” You said aloud as you looked outside the window.
Scaramouche glanced at you, “What for?”
“For crossing the line.”
“Huh?” Scara looked genuinely confused.
“You know, for pushing you about the wikihow and calling you Kuni earlier.”
“Oh.” He made an o-shaped with his mouth as if he had an epiphany. “So that’s what this is about.”
‘That’s what this is about?? Was I the only one who was worried about that? Somehow this pisses me off.’
“You know what, forget about the apology. It seems like you’re actually just fine.”
“Aww, were you worried about me?” Scaramouche cooed. “Seems like someone’s going soft on me. Are you falling for my charms?”
You gave Scaramouche a dirty look, “Me? Fall for you? I’d rather die.”
“But thank you, I had fun today.” He gave you a small smile.
“That’s good.” You said softly. “By the way, Scara, I had to give the excuse that today was our anniversary.”
Scara furrowed his eyebrows and mumbled, “I don’t mind if you keep calling me Kuni.”
“What did you say?”
“I said that’s genius. Seems like we have an anniversary now.”
“Oh? THE Scara complimenting me? I’m honoured.” You laughed.
“Tsk.”
“Don’t sulk now.”
“I’m not.” He glared at you.
