a/n: yessss she so would🥺 i wrote a little something based off this so enjoy!!
It didn’t matter that it had been at least an hour, Abby was still edging you and denying you your orgasm. You kept squirming against her chest, so pent up and spent out you were desperate. You couldn’t help the cries that kept leaving your lips as her fingers pumped in and out of you. Abby considered each whimper leaving your lips as yet another plea to cum, but that didn’t mean she’d be nice and listen. When Abby suggested trying out edging, she promised she would let you cum after a few times, but it was hard to let you when she loved seeing how desperate and fucked out you got. You always looked so cute when you begged, and this time wasn’t any different. She wanted you to go dumb by the time she was done with you, unable to think about anything other than her. You had agreed to the idea, turned on by the thought of having such an intense orgasm, but right now you were too frustrated to think back on the memory fondly. You just needed your release—one she kept denying you. You had lost count of exactly how many times she had already denied your orgasm. Five? Seven? You weren’t sure anymore, but you could feel yourself getting closer again with the erratic thrusts of Abby’s fingers. You were so full, and for a split second you thought she was actually going to let you finish, until she stopped moving completely. You felt the fire in your stomach dull, and you let out a loud whine. You just wanted to finish, but Abby wasn’t ready to let you cum just yet.
“Please, Abs? Please, let me cum. I need it so bad.”
“Poor thing,” she said fakely. She let her free hand rub your thigh like she was comforting you, knowing full well that, for the most part, she wasn’t sorry at all. With you sitting between her legs and your back pressed up against her, you couldn’t see the cruel smile playing on her lips. You were so desperate for her, and she got off on knowing that she was the only one who could give you the release you needed. Nobody could satisfy you like she did. “Just need to cum, huh? Is that what you want? To cum this time? Beg for it. You can do better than that.”
“Please, please, let me finish. Please, Abs. I need you so bad. Want you to fuck me so hard. You’re the only one who can make me cum.”
“Was that so hard? I knew you could beg better than that. I’ll let you finish, babe. I’ll give you just what you want.” She immediately started pumping her fingers inside you again, the pleasure coming over you faster than you expected. The room was filled with moans and the wet sounds of Abby’s fingers hammering inside you. She couldn’t get enough of it. “You’re so tight,” she muttered, and it’s driving her fucking crazy. “See how you’re feeling right now? How good you feel? I’m the only one who can make you feel this way. No one else’s fingers are gonna fill you up like mine.” You were so lost in the pleasure, and the only thing you were able to focus on was the sound of Abby’s voice and the feeling of her inside you. Abby was losing her impulse control, no longer able to hold back, and started speeding up her pace. She was hitting the spot where you needed her the most, and she could tell by the pathetic whimpers leaving your mouth. She couldn’t deny you another orgasm when your moans and the look on your face were so heavenly. You were starting to tighten around her fingers, signaling to her that you were getting closer. She knows she can’t let up on the pace she’s set now—not when this is when it matters most. She needed to see that fucked out look on your face when you finally finished and came all over her fingers.
“Just like that, babe. Just like that. Come on. Cum for me, yeah?” She was finally giving you permission, and that was all you needed to hear from her. With a few more pumps of her fingers, you could feel your orgasm crashing down on you. You were tightening around Abby’s fingers even more than before, and it was like she was seeing God. She couldn’t help the words that slipped out of her lips. “Good girl,” she praised. “Good girl. Fucking tightening around me like that. Feels so good, doesn’t it? Letting you cum so hard just like you needed?” You couldn’t speak, not when Abby was still fucking you through your orgasm. “Poor baby can’t even talk,” she said mockingly. “So fucked out all you can think about is my fingers inside your pussy. Cumming all over me just like I asked.” She was right. She was the only thing on your mind as you gripped onto the bed sheets, letting yourself be consumed by both Abby and your orgasm. The edging had been brutal, but with the intensity of your orgasm right now, you were no longer upset or frustrated. It was all worth it. The pleasure was so white hot it felt like it was blinding. Abby’s fingers finally stilled inside you, waiting for you to loosen up before she eventually pulled them out. You were panting a little, feeling your body start to go weak after you came down from your high. You didn’t know what to say, so caught up in your head. That was the hardest you had ever come before.
“I hear you, baby,” she said, rubbing her hands over your arms. “Why don’t you sit in my lap, love?” You did as she asked, turning around and planting yourself on her lap before wrapping your arms and legs around her. She stroked your back to help you calm down, her touch so gentle and kind in comparison to her meanness earlier. “I’m right here. You’re okay,” she reassured you. You never got this quiet after an orgasm, and she could tell you just needed the time and comfort right now. “I got you. Tell me what you need when you’re ready.”
You nodded your head, and Abby was glad to get some form of confirmation from you. She continued to rub your back, just giving you the comforting touch you need.
“Can you keep holding me?” you spoke up. You felt so tired, like you could fall asleep at any moment.
“I’ll do anything you want me to, love,” she responded.
“Even if I asked you to hold me like this for a while?”
“Even that,” she confirmed. You chuckled lightly at her response, your eyes drooping more and more with each passing second. Before you knew it, you had fallen asleep, so warm and safe in Abby’s arms. She didn’t mind, though, not for a second. Not when her pretty girl was fast asleep and being taken care of by her.

Incoming ramble I wanna hear you’re thoughts on this cause it’s been on my brain for a little bit and it’s got me in my feels
K so I forget if it’s in the step 3 prologue or in the Drive moment but either way when on the topic of Cove leaving for Nevada every now and again and choosing how your MC feels about it there’s the option to choose that it makes you sad and nervous specifically because the little 8 year old in you (who remember was probably HORRENDOUSLY lonely) was scared that Cove was gonna leave and never come back
Now that option alone already gets to me (cause I relate to it hard cough cough) but just imagine the MC actually confessing to Cove about that fear!! Obviously the MC doesn’t want to make Cove stop going cause yknow he’s literally going to see his own mom but MC also can’t deny that there’s that sad lonely little kid inside their head who just doesn’t want to be left alone again so they’re kinda just stuck in the dilemma. But soon enough after feeling well enough to admit it they finally tell Cove about it and get to actually work it out!!!
It just- AUGH ITS GOT ME EMOTIONAL MAN I CANT-
cove would actually feel so relieved omg bc it makes him sad too and he misses you, ofc ik he says that no matter what but I think he also worries abt leaving n nevering coming back
very traumatized from the move after his mom n dad divorced n he tried to run away bc he missed krya, yk 😟
reassures you that he'll always come back, and that if that did happen he'd prbly try to run away to see you LOL
would offer to take you with him!!! if you're dating ofc you need to work it out w his mom a bit more than necessary but she wouldn't mind if you stayed over or came to hang out w them
I imagine krya spends a Lotta time at work anyway since she can't be on leave the entire time he visits, so she'd be relieved that he has someone to keep him conpany
he talks abt you so much anyway, it's like you're basically there w them already
if you can't or don't want to go with him, he'd video call you sm more
sends lots of pictures n texts and voice messages
tells you basically everything abt his day and sends gm and gn texts
NO VOICE MESSAGES
omg...
coves sleepy, raspy voice saying "good morning" (
sounds like this, would even call you sunshine like sonny did!!!😭😭
I'm falling apart
mmm if he's gone a long time he'd prbly even come see you, or meet you half way
which is stressful bc he has a long drive but he would bc he's crazy abt you
omg gives you a shirt of his.
BUYS MATCHING SHIRTS
omg and asks you what you're wearing every day until you say that shirt n he wears it like "omg!!! what a coincidence!!!!" babe we know u did it on purpose PLEASE
sends you flowers
n by send you flowers I mean asks his dad to pick up some flowers and deliver them to you
sends his dad money too but cliff would prbly pay for them once or twice bc he thinks this is so chge n send the money back to cove so cove is like "dad!!!" n just makes an order on his card bc his dad is so stubborn😭😭
cliff is actually in love w your guys relationship he's so happy,,, pls
I should write some hc's on how cliff feels abt you guys dating bc my man's is so happy!!!! pls. OK anyway
OMG YOU VIDEO CALL N EAT TOGETHER
will ask what you're eating n have the same thing if he can
OMG HE PICKS UP ONE TIME AND HE'S RUNNING ACROSS THE STREET N HES LIKE "WAIT DONT EAT YET I GOTTA PICK UP THE FOOD"
n you can just see his chin, the sky and then it's like kinda black n then for some reason u can see the floor and then he's like "sorry" and he starts running back to his car AGAIN
and so he delicately places the phone down n is panting n just goes, "sorry. I'm ready now" *throws his head back* "omg gimme a minute... man. climbing thru your window really came in handy"
KISSES THE SCREEN
big "mmmmwaahhh!!!"
or tiny "mweh", no in between
falling asleep on the phone too
WOULD TUCK THE PHONE IN.. OMG STOP IT
he's totally normal abt you I swear

Oh boy uhhh,,, them
Flat colours because it's a reference line up ^^ So uh yeah, got busy with an adult/ng AU bcuz when DON'T I? That being said lets dive right in-
Ethan Broflovski
Stan and Kyle remained best friends throughout most of their childhood - they had break ups here and there but there’s nothing they couldn’t overcome eventually- moving into high school they kept that going and well, the crazy adventures never stopped for a moment. Though for a time it did seem that they may be growing up quite fast. Kyle, with his strong sense of morality, decided he would follow his dad and started training for law school in order to bring a little justice to the town and make a good name for himself. Stan … he decided to try and avoid being like his parents as much as possible but all his adventures had given him a great desire to continue those, so in the end he decided to become a detective, his view on the world was certainly better than um, the previous law men of SP. Stan is keen and on scene - he still had a pretty rocky relationship with women, and maybe Wendy in particular but he always felt it went badly and that no one truly understood him, ya know? Well, the boys were eventually going into uni and since both of them were working in law departments of sorts, lots of their classes ended up being similar times and so it felt just like old times, even without Kenny and Cartman and the others, it could be just the two of them and that gave them time to reflect, a few more bad break ups and parties with too much to drink and it sorta just … clicked into place. They had their differences sure, but throughout all of the escapades and “gay” jokes well … maybe they did truly like each other. It took a little while for them to be truly comfortable with announcing that but one day Stan just kind of took his hand in public similar to Craig, and that was it.
Due to his little brother Ike being an adoptee, Kyle decided he wanted to do the same when they eventually decided it was time :3 He knew he could give a kid a loving home, and so their son was eventually officially signed to them. Ethan grows up absolutely adored by both sides of his family, and has a bit of mixed-faith household, though since Stan’s side is fairly relaxed he grows up more with Jewish traditions, but still has Christmas with his other side too. He’s a pretty sporty kid, being best friends with Oscar Tucker, another sports nut … though Ethan does have a crush on his bff’s sister, a fact he keeps to himself. Ethan is a pretty sensitive kid and is also noted to be very intelligent, something he and his uncle Ike can bond over, since Ethan tends to take extracurricular for STEM (science, technology, Engineering & Maths) subjects. He’s pretty happy-go-lucky and insults don’t really get to him, he’ll just raise an eyebrow at those.
“Bubbles” McCormick
It can’t be denied that Butters and Kenny had feelings for each other, though due to Butters’ shyness and Kenny’s well, kenny-ness it was a bit all over place- but they remained super close regardless Butters did pretty well in school, not fantastic but enough to get by, and was soon invested in social work before he knew it, helping kids from bad homes and looking after them at the South Park foster home :3
Kenny, meanwhile, due to his family’s finances and his rather unfortunate habit of … dying, had decided to take up a trade job that was out of town, in the hopes of eventually saving up for something better for himself. He ended up leaving South Park at 18 after a tearful goodbye to everyone, hoping he could find something to improve his lifestyle. During his time working various odd jobs in his new town, he met a lot of people -  one in particular was a woman named Tracy Robinson (just a random name-) that he began a relationship with. It wasn’t really the best :,D In fact it sort of mirrored his parents in a way, it was dysfunctional and they were on the verge of breaking up - when Tracy found out she was pregnant. That changed everything. Both were still underpaid and overworked and Kenny felt that even though he’d tried to better himself, he’d accidentally trapped himself in another cycle just like his family. He was a bit resentful tbh- that is, until his daughter was born. From the moment he saw her, Kenny had never felt more love for anything ever- she was his world, his lil’ “Lulu”, and despite the rough times and bad relationship, he knew it was gonna be worth it to see his little girl at the end of each day, so he stayed. That is, until he came home early one day.
That dysfunctional relationship had turned sour. There was another man in his house, and it was pretty obvious Tracy had been cheating for a while. Things got pretty ugly with the break up after that. Eventually, the courts awarded a 50/50 split of Lucy, but although Kenny tried his hardest to uphold it, Tracy’s new guy had threatened him and well, he was pretty much barred from seeing her :,D Unable to cope with that, and also well, unable to die, Kenny felt he had no real choice but to move back to SP and start from the ground up … again. So he did, and after a few months and a lot of help from his friends, he secured a nice job at a warehouse company, and became the head of the health and safety department, which paid well since he was very diligent at making sure he and other people weren’t in danger of dying it was perfect, and although he had that grief, he was pleased to be back c:
A couple of years down the line, Butters had become the head of the SP foster home, and was absolutely adored by the kiddos. He gets a little call one day that some cops from wanted to see him, and they end up bringing a shy little kid with them, explaining that she had been the victim of a traumatic event (in private they explained the kid’s abusive step father had shot her mother in front of her and was threatening to hurt the kid before the neighbours called). Butters is of course shocked but he absolutely agrees to take the lil’ girl in, and tries to bond with her. She’s very shy and obviously suffering PTSD but being Butters he’s just calm and friendly and slowly earns her trust c: The girl doesn’t talk much at all, and seems to spend a lot of her time blowing bubbles as it keeps her occupied, which is why the others tend to just call her Bubbles, and Butters makes sure she has enough on hand :3 Well, she warms up to him slowly, and Butters really feels for her. One night he’s sorting out some files for the foster home kids (the last two months had kept him busy and he hadn’t had time to get around to them) and he picks up Bubbles’ official file to take a little look. Needless to say he’s quite shocked and a little ashamed of himself for not checking sooner as soon as he realises the file does state the girl’s biological dad- which is the reason she was given to the SP foster home as the birthplace of her father. Butters has a very important call to make to a good friend of his the next day-
They meet at Tweek’s coffee shop and Butters explains he has some important news. He brings the file and explains everything he knows to Kenny, who of course is overcome with emotion but absolutely overjoyed that his lil’ girl is close again at last. Since legally be was supposed to have 50/50 anyway, it’s really no issue for him to get her back and besides, they know a good laywer or two in the Broflovski household, just in case. By now, Kenny is doing decently for himself with his high manager permission, and finally feels he’s made it. Due to the shenanigans, he’s able to officially change Lucy’s surname to his instead, and all that emotion had once again brought him and Butters together just like when they were kids. *cough* and funnily enough, Butters surname has become McCormick for ‘some’ reason too. It’s been a couple of years with her new family now, and Bubbles is doing so much better :3 She found her voice again, and whilst she is still shy and prefers her little bubble blowing game, she has a lot of super supportive friends in the other ng, and two wonderful, amazing, kind and caring dads and a family who love her very much. She seems to have Kenny’s uncanny ability of being immortal, but UNLIKE Kenny, it’s more a case of she always manages to avoid dangerous situations by a whisker. Regardless, she’s very close to Jezebeth who’s family tend to have seen Kenny … a lot over the years up there so even if someone wanted to mess with her (she can be a bit naïve-) they’d be going through some pretty rough challenges.
Ezra McCormick
Going back to Butters at the foster home - the home gets new kids come and go a bit, since a lot are temporary whilst legal issues get sorted with their parents etc, but the majority are good kids who Butters really gets along with c: Since adopting Bubbles, he’ll often bring her back to see her friends she made there too, especially for the longer-staying kiddos or ones that’ll probably be there permanently, so it’s a nice, warm place to be-
One day, a new arrival shows up, by the name of Ezra Mitchell. Almost immediately, Butters can tell this kid is going to be a challenge. Ezra is sullen, moody, and honestly pretty prone to violent outbursts (yelling, screaming, threats etc, even if bluffing) and it scares the other kids there. In short, he seems like a pretty mean kid, at least, on the surface. But Butters knows that can’t be the full story, and it’s his duty as the main social worker to get to the bottom of it. He knows that Ezra is being put in their care since his mom is … well as far as Butters can tell, not the best :,D Accounts of neglect and physical abuse are in his file, and it’s somewhat obvious from the bruises Ezra showed up with on the first day. And yet, all Ezra seems to do is want to go back. Despite the fact his mom obviously doesn’t care for him, she seems to be the only person he likes, constantly swearing at kids and staff that she is coming back for him!! One day!!! She just has some stuff to sort out with her new boyfriend and stuff, that’s all, any day now she’ll take him from this trash foster home and they’ll never see him again, yeah, she said she’d come next week.
Next week arrives, and the week after. Actually, many weeks. The only time Ezra ever really leaves his room is on the week she’s supposed to “really” be coming, when he packs a little suitcase and waits all day by the door. Apart from that he shuts himself in a room somewhere and yells if anyone comes in. Well, you can imagine Butters is pretty heartbroken by this whole scenario, Ezra is only a little boy and is clearly hurting so much, he wants to help somehow but also has the other foster kiddos to keep safe. So, being the sweet girl that she is, Bubbles decides to take it upon herself to befriend the moody kid. She brings him little snacks and stuff when the home serves them, and ignores the constant insults and yelling, preferring maybe to not tell her dads about this in case they think it’s a bad idea. But slowly, the little interactions break down at least a surface layer of his shell. At least, he doesn’t scream anymore when she brings him a biscuit or something, tho he isn’t necessarily friendly yet. One day as she’s leaving, he asks why she decided to be nice to him, despite him yelling at her all the time. Bubbles says she understands being in a rough situation. She’s not really prepared to talk about her past with her own mother, but she assures Ezra he isn’t alone in having those confusing feelings of “I love my parent even though I know deep down they were no good” kind of ones- and he thinks about that for a long time.
Ezra, like the rest of the foster home, attend SP elementary. He’s pretty outcast from his class too, and prefers to spend time skulking around the playground. This day in particular, he hears a familiar voice of that girl Bubbles and she sounds kinda agitated. Ezra finds she’s being picked on by some of the older kids still, asking for her lunch money, and whilst her friends are telling them to back off they’re not really listening and getting a bit pushy. Ezra, despite being a bit younger and decidedly smaller, goes absolutely off at them- he has his street smarts, and he sees them off pretty quickly. Bubbles is extremely grateful, but doesn’t go bragging about it, giving a small nod that it’s their way of sealing something of a friendship.
A little while later, things are calm in the home, and Ezra is extremely excited. He had a phone call with his mom for the first time in a while, and she’s promised she’ll be taking him out for a holiday soon! :3 he knows that this really is the time, and wanting to go, is on his best behaviour for a bit, helping Butters and being a little more social with the other kids, wanting his mom to see how well her son is doing and to be proud of him when they go on holiday together c:
She doesn’t turn up. He knew, deep down, she wouldn’t. Still, he’d rather not have had that hope :,D Bubbles finds him later, crying (tho he said he wasn’t). She asks if he’d like to join her and her dads to Casa Bonita that weekend, since it was her birthday, and they said she could bring a friend (well, maybe she didn’t tell him Jezebeth was ill that weekend but y’know, the gesture was still out of a good place.) Butters is a bit surprised by the invite, and even more so that Ezra agrees, but he had been noticing a little friendship there, and is more than happy to comply (filling in Kenny on the details before hand). Ezra goes with them, and meets up with some of Bubbles’ friends and families again and for the first time experiences true family love in front of him. He sees how much Bubbles is close to her dads, how they laugh and joke and actually want to spend time with her. He sees how other mom’s like Wendy and Nichole and Bebe don’t brush their kids aside and tell them they’ll be back later but actually smile and seem to have fun. He gets a bit tense when Ethan accidentally drops pizza toppings on his shirt, worried that Kyle or Stan might hit him, but instead they just laugh and call him messy, and pull funny faces. It’s … nice. Ezra thinks maybe he would enjoy that too, if ever possible. Tho he doesn’t see how. That is, until he gets a call his mom will come to spend the day with him again. He’s a bit “Yeah whatever” this time, but to his huge surprise, there she is, just how he remembered- um, only that’s not actually such a good thing. They DO spend the day together, but it’s more “they’re physically together but she spends the whole time on her phone talking to the new bf and waving him away” kinda thing. By the time he returns to the foster home and Butters asks how his day was, Ezra bursts into tears and clings to him, saying how he just wants parents who care about him, like Bubbles’ do. Butters is pretty pissed off at Ezra’s mom- though he wonders … if she cares that little maybe it could work out after all. He calls her and Ezra for an important meeting.
It’s a bit out of the ordinary, Butters often jokes that he would like to adopt all of the foster kids, tho not literally, but this one is an exception, especially considering his friendship with Bubbles. Ezra’s mom seems “whatever” about handing over her legal custody of her son, and yeah that stings, but Ezra is pleased too, knowing he will no longer have to rely on her for parental validation. Within a few months, everything is sorted in quiet, and Ezra gets to go home to the McCormick household, and try out his new surname c: Oh, and his new room next to his new sister’s is pretty cool too.
Oscar and Daphne Tucker
Well, I guess this is the simplest, sweetest backstory of all. You’ve heard of high school sweethearts, now get ready for elementary, middle, highschool AND university sweethearts (I think that’s how the American system goes-) anyways- being a small little town and being good little kids, Tweek and Craig pretty much were able to stay right by each other from the very start. Tweek kinda had his future set out for him, since he pretty much just took over the Tweak’s cafe from his parents as soon as he could (minus the … drugged coffee) whilst Craig helped out and did a little night school to become a vet, something he decided he wanted to do due to his love for his childhood guinea pigs. Sure they had their moments, especially with such a long running relationship, but well, such a long relationship had also taught them a lot about each other so they always managed to work through it when the time came and they wanted a family of their own, they decided to get simultaneous surrogates :3 That is, one child (Oscar) is biologically Tweek’s, whilst Daphne is biologically Craig’s - it seemed like a good idea to them at the time anyhow. Daphne ended up being born first, with her brother a couple weeks after, so it was almost like raising twins (surprisingly, taking care of two babies wasn’t as bad as they thought since Tweek can barely sleep sometimes due to his caffeine intake ) Tweek does nights, Craig did days, it kinda fell into place- anyway, regardless of who was who, the four of them are thick as thieves and don’t for a moment consider any of each other as anything less than pure and simple family  (that is, no favouritism towards their bio kids, the other partner’s kiddo is absolutely theirs too-) Well, Daphne and Oscar both grow into quite different people but are still just as close siblings as ever. Oscar is maybe not the smartest - he’s a bit neurotic and freaks out at times, but absolutely loves playing sports with his friend Ethan, who can be pretty confident and helpful c: Daphne is a bit more stylish, and quite quick witted with savage insults to the haters. She can also sometimes be seen as a bit of a “bad” girl, in a rebellious sort of sense - but she’s a good kid, just has little respect for people trying to push unfair authority- and she’ll always stand up for her “little brother” (Oscar hates being called that due to only being a couple weeks apart.)
Oh, and naturally – the family’s love for guinea pigs lived on, and the Tucker siblings both have a one of their own. Their pigs are also siblings, two female guinea pigs called Mocha and Espresso.
Jezebeth Thorn
Following Pip’s death at the hands of Mecha Streisand, Pip eventually finds himself in the afterlife, originally as an angel. Meanwhile, Damien had grown into quite the young ruler, his temper is a bit more under control as he matures and although he doesn’t quite understand human behaviour, he’s eager to learn. Heaven and hell have a bit more leniency nowdays, mostly due to Satan temporarily spending time in the other plane when he’s killed by ManBearPig, s citizens are used to seeing each other. Pip, in heaven, eventually recognises Damien, and seeing as how he didn’t seem to upset by the whole ordeal before, actually seemed quite happy to see him which Damien was surprised about. He begins to visit Hell more often, and adapts a bit of a “can I stick with you-” thing for a while, which eventually grew on Damien and he started to quite like the little human back, to his shock. He comes to learn more about life on earth and as they grew older Damien became kinda protective of him. Eventually, much like his father himself had had relationships (arguably more questionable ones) with humans before, it wasn’t really an issue for anyone, and they were happy for them. Pip, whilst still an angel, actually resides in hell, which is arguably taboo still but as Damien is royalty they don’t question it. Speaking of, being the prince of hell comes with magic powers.  
Jezebeth Thorn is biologically their kiddo, ‘bcuz magic’ and maybe a goat sacrifice, nobody dared ask. Well, being the princess of darkness, she has her own little powers, and being part human too finds it fairly easy to blend in with both worlds unlike Damien at first. Jeze is by far considered cooler by her peers, although this might be because she doesn’t set everyone on fire - at least not until they’ve wound her up- she’s perhaps the most complicated character in the sense that she can be quite neutral on her alignment. One minute she can be your best friend, the next your worst nightmare, the next just a bystander, it’s more or less part of her fun to mess with the mortals, she can be responsible for sneaky little tricks and chaotic magic that sends the others on wild goose chases for her amusement. She is a very good ally to have though, since this works on enemies and bullies just as much- it should be noted that the one kid protected from her devious games is Bubbles, since being the daughter of Kenny, a fairly regular visitor to the afterlife and the daughter of Butters, a personal friend of Pip’s, Bubbles is the one mortal Jeze will always be on the good side of and genuinely does protect her so that others won’t mess with her. Her more human side comes out in that sense, she can be fairly sympathetic when she wants despite often appearing (or perhaps pretending to be indifferent to the other’s feelings-) SP never really knows what to expect when she’s in town, but it can certainly be said it’ll never be boring.
And as a fun fact, since she’s half English, she has a small tea vs coffee rivalry with the Tucker siblings it’s mostly just silly, those “fights” are generally more to be amusing than deceptive, but it’s a running joke for them-
Penelope Cartman
Cartman. What a kid. Well, as one might expect, Cartman sure had a rough time hitting his teen years - he had that same cutthroat business attitude and slightly sadistic streak which earnt him a lot of time in and out of juvie doing community work to earn a day or two off his sentences, but he’s still had some humanity deep down. Well, since moving up to high school (which he dropped out of due to some issues) he kind of broke off from the other 3 for a while, eventually getting out of jail and, in classic Cartman fashion, became a businessman pretty quickly. The others would say it wasn’t fair perhaps, Cartman would tell them to go fuck themselves, because he’s making cash by the day.
Meanwhile Wendy Testaburger continued her strong fight for what she believes in, having eventually dropped Stan altogether (though the two are … rocky friends, it’s a bit better now) and she would often lead activism groups against cooperation’s and unethical business practise - more often than not this sort of lead her right to Cartman, though she could never prove anything he was doing was bad, in fact it sorta became funny after a while, like a little routine. They’d often meet on opposite sides of an argument or in court but not really get anywhere, it was funny really, she started to look forwards to it - no wait, what was she saying? Looking forwards to seeing Cartman? Ohh no, she’d been there before. This rivalry had lasted the ages, there was no way she was coming to yet again have THOSE feelings for her business and otherwise rival … right? She asks him to meet her so they can talk - Cartman is … well she remembers how he’s always been. Maybe he’s always been a bit of a strange boy and she knows of some of his worse crimes but well, a lot WERE also out of childish innocence too. Cartman is no and never will be a saint but … she finds it quite amusing perhaps, all the same and that slowly, painfully, but inevitably blossoms into something more- much to Stan’s um, shock and Wendy has her own cutthroat tactics, Cartman admires that tbh.
Penelope is, a rather abrasive character. Well, she would be with those parents but it’s not necessarily a bad thing either - she’s more blunt that Daphne and less deceptive than Jezebeth but if there’s one thing she is it’s LOUD and commands a lot of respect - whether she deserves it is another question. But she’s not a bad kid, unlike her father, the others kids are genuinely her friend, although sometimes bemused at her boisterous antics. She tends to consider herself the absolute expert on everything from fashion to skydiving, even when she hasn’t done those things before. Still, you can’t help but love her confidence and sass, even when you hate her for it at the same time-
Seymour Donovan
So to begin with, Seymour *Donovan* is actually the son of Token and Nichole- more on that at the end.
Well, it seemed that their relationship was going pretty well, at least throughout the early years, everyone pretty much expected Token and Nichole to be the next Tweek and Craig, aka elementary sweethearts, and it seemed to be going that way, there was certainly nothing ‘wrong’ with their relationship it was … nice and stable and that was cool. But well, perhaps unlike the excitement of the adventures and stuff they’d witnessed as kids, as they grew older they just sort of grew into slightly different people. It wasn’t due to a fight or anything dramatic like the others had perhaps experienced they just simply realised that they had slightly different goals - Token was content in South Park, he intended to start investing in his quite large trust fund from his parents and begin using that in property values, expanding a little more and helping the town make a new something of themselves c: Nichole liked SP but she wanted to travel for a little while, perhaps start afresh or move to bigger communities. It would seem that it would end pretty much there - until she realised she was pregnant. That sort of escalated once their parents found out because well, everyone was super happy and excited and just assumed they would be too, I mean why wouldn’t they be? And so an engagement was encouraged to which they reluctantly agreed, not sure how to really get out of that one but not wanting to let their friends down :,D The engagement party was fun - for everyone else. They were in their little groups, the girls discussing the baby and the guys congratulating Token but it seemed a bit strange since they’d been on the verge of separating. Really, the only guy Token thought seemed more upset than him was his friend Clyde, who was um, crying by the buffet table. Token took that as a little opportunity to escape the party and the well-wishers and take him outside for a little fresh air. Clyde explained that he’d been having a little relationship trouble himself - or rather the inability to maintain one. His mosquito-ness had sort of come through and he found himself bouncing from girl to girl and maybe even questioning if he liked guys too, he’d spoken to the other friends about that and realised it was pretty common for them XD but he felt he wasn’t stable, and envied Token’s happy life. Well since all cards were on the table, Token decided to reveal the truth to him, about how whilst he did still feel very deeply for Nichole and was excited to be a father soon, they had been on the verge of splitting due to goal differences. Clyde of course was very surprised by this revelation and after a heart to heart about not trying to stay in something he knew wouldn’t work, Token agreed to talk to Nichole and see if they were on the same page. They knew it might surprise their parents and friends but well … it was better than trying to live a little lie. They called off their engagement, which definitely had the expected confusion and reactions but they valued their friend’s feelings.
9 months later Nichole had their son, a little boy they decided to name Seymour Black. During the rest of her pregnancy, Token had received a lot of support from his friends, and helped pay to get Clyde into some therapy and relationships counselling to see if he could work out what he was doing wrong. And it had helped a lot, so much so that Clyde had found himself a steady relationship for the first time in a while. Token had finally found someone that had similar life goals to himself, so it would work. Well, due to the subsequent marriage, Seymour Black would become Seymour Donovan instead, and since it was never Nichole’s surname, she didn’t mind at all, in fact she was just proud her son had two loving homes to go to X3 Seymour is a very sweet but rather sensitive kid, something he has in common with his step-dad Clyde :3 This sensitivity can make him a target for bullies and the like, but also makes him a kind and loyal friend to others of course he’s now the richest kid in SP, and that can come in handy when the others want to play cool games - not to mention Seymour also has his grandparents who spoil him absolutely rotten on top of that. His favourite hobby is gardening, mostly for flowers and sometimes vegetables, which he likes to sell at little stalls during the school events, making him very popular with the moms of town who think he’s just the cutest thing ever. He’s never been a fan of traditional sports much, but he can still hold his own, and does like to play ball games with his parents or friends c: He mostly lives at Token’s for the meantime, and sleepovers at his house are always super looked forwards to by the other friends.
Amelia Daniels
Following the birth of her son and break up, Nichole couldn’t quite travel as far as she originally wanted, at least she figured not till Seymour was a little older. That didn’t mean she regretted the split though, it was sort of inevitable and she still loved Token without being IN love with him anymore- so on the weeks he was staying with Seymour, Nichole had the opportunity for small little adventures such as a day out to a national park to hike, or to visit a neighbouring historic town, or to go horseriding - this last one she found quite quite companionable since she could be with her old friend Bebe. The two had quite a lot of common interests they found, generic stuff they already knew of course but they also found they could bond over the new world of adult life, whether it was giggling about Eric and Wendy’s “flirting” in court or their shared aspirations to get degrees and prove themselves smart to their peers. Bebe had always been quite tired of people assuming things about her looks, and was working towards a masters in teaching at the local college, as well as volunteering with the equine centre on weekends - overall, busy busy busy. But it was fun, the volunteering got her to visit new places with the group, and Nichole happily joined that too. Of course being the leader of those helped developed their own little relationship, and that became pretty solid after a while. Some years into that, they decided they’d adopt :3 They specifically chose a child close to Seymour’s age, so he could have a sister of sorts c:
Amelia had always had a fascination with planes, just One of those childhood fancy’s type things, it was possibly because she liked sharing her name with her idol Amelia Earheart, a coincidence perhaps but she accepted that. Amelia is a strong character - not strong as in abrasive such as her friend Penelope, but certainly strong as in “one of the few characters that can actually handle Penelope”. She’s smart and quick witted, and always looking for new ways to build a real plane one day - her toy models are too perfection but that won’t stop her from perhaps recklessly attempting a foolhardy life size model one day, she’s got ambition, the others will give her that XD Amelia and her “brother” Seymour have a close bond, she’s his protector of sorts from when older kids pick on his sensitivity, and whilst she doesn’t really like physical confrontation she’s not necessarily afraid to throw a punch, if the other kid was asking for it. Mostly though, she’s mild mannered and can just be found in the library checking out old Aero magazines or in the toy store with the build it kits c: She doesn’t consider Token and Clyde parents per say but she’s close to them as well, although living a little more moderately c:
Hecate Gelsor
Henrietta and Katie kinda reconciled the goth vs vampire thing later on in high school, in some ways although they hated being compared as they believed they were truly different, they realised they were going to do their own thing regardless and actually found themselves with a mutual respect, maybe out of a little hidden interest. They’re a bit unconventional, and that’s how they like it, completely non-conformist.
Hecate - well, now she’s fairly simple in her own right. A chaotic neutral if you will, she’s neither the main guys friends nor their enemy, she kind of stays out of stuff but will join in to suit her own personal gains. Always has a fascination with the morbid and depraved that can sometimes make the others uncomfortable - or at least, the sensitive ones since characters like Jezebeth and Penelope would find it pretty funny XD She tends to recite poetry and avoids new fads and technology, maybe even considers herself a bit of a vampire-witch as she likes to call it - her aesthetic is those little witchy shops you get in tourist towns - dream catchers, incense burners, lots of chains and skull rings, all of those. Out of all the characters she’s definitely the outright rebellious but in your face way, not clever or sneaky about that, but in a way her moms support it, they appreciate going against the grain, standing up to non-conforming to the rules and all that good stuff. Hecate is definitely the one to go for if you want a lock picked or some mysterious tomb discovered, just don’t rely on her for emotional support unless she gets something in return, she’s pretty black and white like that.
“Bandit”
Bandit, which is most likely a nickname he gave himself is the son of non-other than
“The New Kid”- specifically any new kid, since for the purposes of keeping it ambiguous, you never really “see” his parent, and whatever was known about them is now somewhat rumour, they’re known mostly as the Vigilante.
Bandit had pretty much been an outsider as long as he can remember, sure he hears adults in town talk about the cool games they played as kids and how it was fun to pretend - but Bandit knows something somewhere went too far. He doesn’t know the exact details, nor why he never really knew his grandparents but he knows there’s a lot of secrets being kept from him, and that’s caused a lot of resentment. Essentially, Bandit is the antagonist of the next gen. He doesn’t know what, he doesn’t care to know what to some extent - but he knows the others’ parents were involved in the mess that came before him. He’s clever, vindictive, and quite possibly powerful- despite not hiding his unsociable attitude, Bandit also seems to have an uncanny ability to … draw people to him, like some kind of … power. Which can make him quite formidable. Bandit rarely shows much true personality, he can seem pretty cold at times, and doesn’t seem to have any true friends despite the following fans he always seems to be able to amass when needed. This of course often puts him at odds, most especially - with Penelope. He’s still working on finding out the truth, of finding out just why he’s had to live such a shut in life, but he’s more sure than anything that her family has something to do with it, he just needs to gather the pieces. Now of course, this wouldn’t be a good character if that was his only motive - behind locked doors, Bandit has a good reason for all of this - and ultimately, it’s because he does want to make things right. He’s not necessarily going about it the right way, but every course of action is to one day, hopefully bring a little light back to his parent’s life. He takes good care of the vigilante, often takes care of the housework by himself and takes odd jobs on weekends to bring food and cash home. He’s never cared to find his other parent, doesn’t want to, doesn’t need to - what he wants more than anything is to be a normal kid, with a normal, if single parented household that’ll go to sports games and come to parents evening at school at throw birthday parties, but he knows he has a duty and a vitriolic personality. Essentially, he’s in a morally grey zone - the adults were kids themselves, how much they knew is entirely debatable and the next gens are even more innocent in all of that. But it sure weighs heavily on that poor kid, he’s bad but … maybe in some ways he reserves the right to be.

Tomioka Giyuu Dating headcanons
Tomioka Giyuu x reader
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH- I’m dying. Our first headcanons, I’m kinda scared tbh. It’s not the best since it’s the first time we do that type of stuff but we really hope you guys will enjoy it !!! :’)
Requested by: No one
TW: None
Word count: 1292
Writer: Both of us!!
Tumblr media
At first, he can’t believe it. He’s dating you and you’re dating him. He’d be so surprised that you like him that way. Like, wow.
No seriously, whenever you announce to someone that you’re dating him, he’s as shocked as the person processing the information.
You’re probably the one who asked him out in the first place. That baby boy could never bring up the courage to do it; he’s way too insecure. Why would someone like him ?
During your confession, he’ll deny all the good things you said about him with the most heart breaking expression on his face. He can’t believe it; he doesn’t want to believe anyway.
He’s persuaded that every compliment you gave him is a lie and it just breaks your heart to see him think so poorly of himself.
You decide to do your best to prove him that you genuinely care about him, that you genuinely like him. So you try and do absolutely anything to make him believe you; from the big things like presents, fancy dates, obnoxious love declarations, etc… to the small things like holding and squeezing his hand, complimenting him…
It’d take a while but he’d finally accept it. He’s still as insecure but he believes you a little more.
He’s completely terrified at the idea of losing you. Just the thought of it makes him sick.
Prepare yourself to be wrapped in bubble wrap more than one time.
He’ll do anything in his power to protect you and make you the happiest person alive.
He’s an awkward man with little to zero experience at socializing so you guess that he knows absolutely nothing about dating. The first few months will probably just be you dying in laughter because of all the things he did wrong.
(He thinks you’re mocking him but you’re actually just smitten by how cute he is with all the efforts he puts in your relationship.)
After a while, he’d try and take you on a surprise date that he planned entirely by himself and he’s absolutely terrified; he’s just so scared you’d hate it.
But you’d be really happy and probably give him a big bear hug while telling him you’re really lucky to have him.
(Needless to say, he’d blush-)
He also start getting a few cute habits when you give him surprise attention; he starts fidgeting his fingers and try to look away from you. Just cup his face and peck his lips and you got a puddle Giyuu !
He’d start opening up to you at night, when you both can’t sleep. You two sit somewhere in the garden of his estate and he talks to you about his past, his intrusive thoughts, his guilt…
Please, be supportive and hold him tight. The next morning his eyes might be red and swollen but believe me, he’d never felt so peaceful.
If you’re sad, he’ll listen to you and try and make all your worried go away the best he can; he doesn’t want you to feel what he feels on a daily basis.
Giyuu will probably complain to you about Shinobu and her endless teasing but you always notice the very slight smirk he gets when he talks about her. She might not see him as a friend and he might be cold with her but she holds a special part in his heart (he might admit, one day, if faith accepts it, that he kinda sees her as a friend. Not sure when)
Shinobu probably took you apart one time and told him that you don’t have to date Giyuu out of pity (as a joke ofc).
You low-key scolded her for saying something like that but you both kinda made a silent alliance to make Giyuu go crazy.
Let’s say he might as well go bury his hopes and dreams of not being teased already.
He low-key cherish your teasing though. He’ll never admit it, of course. But even if you two spend so much time annoying him, you still decided to spend time on HIM. And it just warm his heart…
Until you decided to make him choke on chocolate cake. He really don’t know how you thought it was a good idea.
Giyuu’ll cough up the remains of the chocolate. He’ll gulp some water and look at you with a very shocked face. “Why?!?”
“Ara, ara, Tomioka-san~ it’s not like it’s the first time we make a bad     joke !”
“I’m…so sorry, honey-“ and you two just die laughing while Giyuu silently judges you.
He forgives you eventually.
He always does.
If you guys are walking together and you suddenly feel him freeze and grab your arm, a dog is probably nearby. Try and take a different route or move the puppy far enough from him.
DON’T, DO NOT, NEVER kiss Giyuu in public. Especially if the other Pillars are there. He might die on the spot.
Giyuu.EXE has stopped working. Error 404.
He’s really not comfortable with PDA. Maybe hand holding, and maybe, maybe, an occasional peck on the cheek.
Pinky holding please. You’d never think he’d like it but he just loves the intimacy it brings.
Giyuu’s kisses are soft, you can’t tell me otherwise.
He can’t help it. He just loves kissing you gently, delicately. And it’s LONG. God, if he kisses you, he won’t stop to save his life; he doesn’t want to stop at ALL. 
Breathing ? Air? Don’t know them.
If he stops, it’s only cause you need to.
If you tell him you want another kiss, he’d turn bright red but will do it nonetheless.
Ever since this relationship started, he’s probably beet red half the time.
You’ll make Giyuu come out of his shell with the Kamado boy, it’s almost a certainty. He’s gonna have friends with you two around, there’s no way he’s staying alone.
Because of you, he’d try so hard to befriend the Pillars; you never seen him stick to Sanemi and Obanai much. He just wants them to stop hating him. He’ll probably try bringing Sanemi some ohagi with Tanjiro but you’ll stop them cause you don’t want them to get killed.
You eventually end up trying to talk to Sanemi about NOT killing your boyfriend because he’s actually really sweet and is far from believing himself above the other pillars (like hell Sanemi, you don’t know how much an insecure baby Giyuu actually is)
Giyuu is low-key never jealous. If you gained his trust, you gained it in every way possible and he will never think of you as possibly cheating or anything.
Sometimes you guys train together. At first, he’d go easy, but not so easy on you, if you get what I mean? Like, he wants you to be able to protect yourself from demons so he won’t lose another person he cherishes but at the same time he really doesn’t want to hurt you.
After a while, he made up his mind and decided to go hard on you and since that day he has NO MERCY-
You’re not going to die on him. Never. He wouldn’t be able to take it.
When you guys finish, you’ll just sit there exhausted but you’re glad he’s training you well, and spending time with him is a big plus.
He’s a big cuddler behind closed doors and a 100% little spoon, fight me.
He likes feeling safe in your arms, and he buries his head in your neck. Hold him tight. Play with his hair and pamper his face with kisses. He loves it 
He’ll do his best to give you as much love as you need. Don’t ever doubt about it. He’d go to hell and endure it just for your pretty smile.

*gif isn’t mine*
Tumblr media
Kai watched you as you moved around the kitchen, making dinner for your friends and you. You were in the Salvatore Boarding House, the place you lived in after having your home destroyed by Klaus Mikaelson. The Salvatore brothers adopted you into their home. You had been friends with them for the past few years, so it wasn’t surprising you moved in. You already spent more than half your time here anyways. 
Tonight you were having a dinner party, planned by your friends and you to just relax and forget about every crazy thing that had and was happening in your life. Granted, something crazy was probably gonna happen, interrupting the relaxing night, but you held onto hope to have one normal night. Like how you used to before all the supernatural stuff.
One thing kept the hope from staying, though. It was Kai Parker. The insane witch who was ruining everything for you and your friends over the past few months. Stefan had decided to invite him over, make nice with him so you all would have him on your side. You sided with Stefan to not be in a fight with your best friend, but you deeply hated the thought of Kai sitting with you. Eating dinner, staring at you like a creepy stalker, probably plotting your death. Good thing was, though, Elena and Caroline were at the house, helping you. Everyone knew that if you were alone with Kai, you would probably kill him. Bonnie, sadly, was with Stefan and Damon, working out a plan to kill and/or get him back into the prison world. 
You were in the kitchen alone at the moment, Kai was sitting at the island table, staring at you. He had a smug look on his face, resting his chin on his palm and leaning on the counter. He never tore his eyes away from you. It made you want to gouge his eyes out. To try and ignore him, you put on music and focused on the dinner you were making. 
You sang the lyrics to ‘Since U Been Gone’ by Kelly Clarkson quietly. You moved your body to the beat, chopping up onions. 
“You have a beautiful singing voice,” Kai said. 
You rolled your eyes, huffing and ignoring him. 
“You know, I can sing, too. I used to love singing in the car with my family,” Kai said. 
“Before you slaughtered them?” You remarked. 
Kai frowned at you, pain shooting through his heart. You continued making steak, turning on the stove and letting it heat up. Elena and Caroline finally came back into the kitchen with ice cream and alcohol. You snatched the bourbon from Caroline’s hand, getting out a cup and pouring yourself a drink. 
“Can I have some?” Kai asked.
You nodded, not looking at him. You poured him a glass, walking over and setting it in front of him. His hand reached out to grab the glass, making contact with your hand. His fingers brushed against yours. You felt your skin tingle and goosebumps arose on your arm. Kai noticed and smirked. 
“Cold?” He asked. 
You glared at him and pulled back your arm immediately. “No.”
Kai chuckled, knowing you lied. He could sense you had feelings for him, even if you never would admit it. He just needed to make you see him differently so those feelings would surface. 
You went back to ignoring him, which only fueld his pining for you more. 
Elena and Caroline went over to you with the steaks.
“You know, Mr. Socio is in love with you,” Caroline said. 
“He's not in love with me. He just likes to chase people and get them comfortable, then hurt them. Since I’m the only one not with a boy who can protect me, with you having Stefan and Damon, Caroline having Tyler and Klaus at her beckoning call, and Bonnie having Enzo, he has chosen me to haunt and stalk,” you said.
Elena looked back at Kai, who was looking at you still. Elena turned her attention towards you, again. 
“I hate Kai as much as the next person, but he really looks like he has actual feelings for you. You should give him a chance.”
You scoffed, not believing what you were hearing. “Did you forget that he almost killed Bonnie and your beloved Damon to the prison world? He slaughtered his siblings and father without any remorse. Not to mention, he's an annoying prick.”
Elena laughed, “I used to think about that with Damon. But look at me now, I’m in love with him.”
“Yeah, but Damon isn’t a bad person, he just does bad things. Plus, I have seen the way he looks at you and treats you, he is every girl’s dream. Not to mention, he’s a pretty attractive guy. Kai isn’t like that. I mean, yeah, he’s hot, but he’s not the type of person I, or anyone, would want to date,” you explained and took a sip of bourbon.
Caroline smirked, “So, you are attracted to him.”
“No. You can say someone is attractive but not have any romantic feelings,” you shrugged.
In your mind, though, a little voice in your head told you that you did have feelings for him. You ignored the voice, not wanting to try and battle with your feelings. 
“Sure, Y/n. The more you deny it, the worse your feelings will get,” Elena teased. 
You rolled your eyes, flipping the steaks. Oil popped off the pan and hit your wrist. You squealed in pain, holding your wrist. 
Elena hurriedly got you a cold washcloth and pressed it on your wrist. 
“Thanks, El,” you smiled. “Mind taking care of the steaks? I have to keep a cold compress for a little.”
“Not at all. Care, can you get the sundae bar ready?” Elena asked, taking the tongs you used to turn the steak over. Caroline nodded, going over to the cabinets to get ice cream toppings out. 
You went over to the living room, slumping on the couch and grabbing the remote. You turned on ‘Gilmore Girls’. You kept the cold compress on your wrist. 
You felt the couch sink on your left. You didn't bother to look over, already knowing who it was. You two didn’t even sit in silence for 10 seconds before Kai started talking. 
“Rory and Jess should’ve stayed together. Dean’s too soft,” Kai commented while watching the tv. 
“Jess is bad for her. He's smart, but he still has no future. Dean really loves Rory and she threw that away,” you argued.
“True, but Jess loves her, too, just in a different way. Dean is so mellow. Jess is fun, exciting, dangerous. Kind of like Damon. That’s why Elena chose Damon instead of Stefan, right? Because he made her feel things that Stefan could never make her feel, which she liked better,” Kai stated. 
You glared at him. “She didn’t choose him just because of that.”
“No, she chose him because of that. You choose someone because the way they make you feel, that's how love works,” Kai said, turning his attention towards you. 
You felt his burning stare. You decided to turn to him, looking into his dark blue eyes. 
“Yeah, I guess you’re right,” you sighed. 
Kai smiled. His smile made you feel giddy and warm inside. You pushed those feelings away, piling more denial and hate in your mind towards him. 
“You have those feelings towards me, too,” Kai smirked. 
You peeled your eyes away from him, ignoring him once again. 
“Don’t deny it, Y/n. I can see it on your face. I can feel it,” Kai teased, scooting closer.
“Kai, stop,” you muttered. 
He got so close to you, you felt his breath on your cheek. Your heart rate picked up and you found it hot and hard to breathe. Heat went down south between your thighs and goosebumps formed on your neck. 
“You like me, Y/n. I can hear you breathing heavy and you heart beating fast. I can smell your arousal between your legs,” Kai said, putting his hand on yours.
You pulled your hand away. “I said cut the shit, Kai. You’re making me uncomfortable,” you lied. 
Kai’s eyes softened and he moved away immediately. “I’m sorry. I just-”
“You just what, Kai? Think you can use your witchy powers with me to make me fall in love with you? News flash, psycho, I’m not dumb,” you scoffed and stood up.
“I didn’t try to use my powers, I swear. But I can use my powers to heal your burn,” Kai suggested. 
“No, I don’t want your help,” you shook your head. 
“Get off your high horse and let me help you, Y/n. That burn will take a few days to heal and it'll hurt when you shower or brush something against it. Please, Y/n, I want to help you,” Kai pleaded. 
You looked at him. His eyes showed honesty. You sighed in defeat and sat back down on the couch. You moved close to him, your thighs touching. Kai took the cloth off of your burn and held your arm gently. The same, lovey-dovey feelings came back. This time, you didn't fight it as hard, letting yourself enjoy not having to keep up your walls.
“I’m so mean to you, why are you helping me?” You asked. 
“Because I like and care about you. I don’t like seeing the people I care about hurt,” he answered.
He put his free hand over your burn. The burn disappeared by skin forming over it. 
“Really? If you cared about me, you’d leave me alone,” you chuckled. 
“I can’t when I gotta get on your good side. With you and your friends plotting my death, I need an ally,” Kai said. 
Your distaste for him surfaced again. You pulled your hand away once the burn was healed. 
“That’s why I hate you. See, you don’t actually care about me. I knew it. Don’t sit or talk to me during dinner,” you spat and strutted over to the kitchen. 
Dinner was ready, thank the heavens. Damon, Stefan, and Bonnie came into the house on cue. 
“Bon!” You exclaimed, running over and hugging her. 
“Hey! Dinner smells good,” Bonnie smiled and hugged you back. You pulled away and laughed, “Elena and Caroline made it. I got burned.”
“You okay? I can heal you,” Bonnie said. 
“No, uh, Kai healed me already,” you said sheepishly. 
“You let that lunatic touch you?” Damon asked. 
“He was there and asked. He was being nice, but then he turned into a dick again,” you explained. 
“Well, at least you’re not still hurt. C’mon, let’s go and eat. I'm starving,” Stefan said. 
You all went to the kitchen, seeing the meal Elena and Caroline prepared set out on the table. 
“Hey, babe,” Damon smiled and went over to Elena. He put his arm around her and gave her a kiss on the cheek. 
You looked at them longingly. You wanted what they had. So in love, nothing else mattering in the world but each other. You sat down in between Stefan and Caroline. You cut a piece of steak for yourself and got some mashed potatoes and green beans. 
“This is so good, guys. Thanks for inviting me over,” Kai said with a mouthful of steak and mashed potatoes. 
“Our pleasure. Mind eating with a closed mouth?” Stefan remarked. 
You chuckled at Stefan’s comment while Kai frowned. 
“So, what were you three doing while us four were here?” Kai said, gesturing to Damon, Stefan, and Bonnie with his fork. 
“None of your business,” Bonnie said. 
“Aw, c’mon. We’re friends now,” Kai teased. 
“You’ll find out soon,” Damon smiled at him. 
Kai frowned again and ate his food in silence. 
“Do you guys want some blood to go with your wine?” Caroline asked. 
“Yes!” Damon smiled. Caroline got up to get a few blood bags. 
All of you except Kai made conversation. While you were talking and laughing, Kai looked at you. He knew his comment earlier got you two on the wrong foot again. He racked his brain with ways he could get on your good side, get you to agree with going on a date with him. He likes you, he really does, he just doesn’t know how to show those feelings without getting rude and angry. He was willing to try for you, though. After a few hours of talking with everyone, people started to excuse themselves to leave. 
“I’ll see you later, Bon and Care,” you smiled and hugged your two best friends.
“See you! Have fun with Kai, I think he plans on staying,” Caroline smiled.
“I actually am going to leave, too,” Kai butted into your conversation. 
Your heart sank slightly. Since calming down from being angry, your attitude towards him softened. In the back of your mind, you didn’t want him to leave. You wanted him to stay, to pester you, to talk to him, to sit down and have him make you feel the way you did on the couch. You wanted to sit down and enjoy his company. But on the surface, you couldn’t care less. 
“But, I want to talk to Y/n before I leave,” Kai said. 
Bonnie and Caroline looked between you two quizzically. They smiled and let you two be alone in the kitchen. 
You walked to the liquor cabinet, grabbing two glasses and vodka. Kai followed you and sat down in his seat at the island table. 
“So, what do you want to talk about?” You asked as you poured him a glass of vodka. You grabbed your glass and went to sit next to him. 
“I wanted to apologize for earlier,” he said and looked into your eyes. He took the glass without tearing his eyes away from you. 
“You apologizing? Who has you possessed,” you laughed looked around jokingly. 
Kai smiled with you as you brought your attention back on him. 
“No, this is just me. I know what I said earlier about just wanting you as an ally was wrong. I mean, yes, I want you as an ally, I want all of you as an ally, but I still like you. A lot. And I care about you a lot, too,” Kai spoke. 
You took a sip of vodka, sighing. “I accept and appreciate your apology, Kai. But, I don’t like you, not like that anyways, I-”
Kai interrupted you by taking your hand in his. “Y/n, I know I pushed earlier and made you uncomfortable, and I apologize for that, too, but I know that's not true. The look in your eyes when you look at me when you let your guard down is not a look regular friends give each other.”
Your eyes focused on his hand on yours for a few minutes, and looked back up to his face. Butterflies filled your stomach again and his words tugged at your heart strings. Your walls started to come down and as hard as you fought to keep them up, you couldn’t. Kai was getting to you and deep down, you knew he was right. That you cared for him the same way he cared about you. 
But then you remembered that he was the enemy. He took your best friend away from you, wrecked havoc on this town, and killed his parent in cold blood. You couldn’t take the chance of getting hurt. So, you pulled your hand away slowly from his, standing up and downing the rest of your drink. 
“I admit, I may have some feelings for you. Deep down inside, but I can’t take the chance, Kai. I’m sorry. Thank you for apologizing and not ruining dinner. I’ll see you later,” you gave him an apology of your own. 
You started to walk away, but Kai put his hand on your arm. He spun you around and your lips met his. Your eyes widened as Kai kissed you. You tried to fight back from not kissing him, but as his arms wrapped gently around your waist, pulling you in, you melted against him and kissed him back. 
As your lips moved with his for the first few moments, you closed your eyes and  behind your eyelids, your brain exploded. You could see colors as your lips moved with his, and your eyes rolled to the back of your head. His lips tasted like vodka and chocolate ice cream. You wrapped your arms around his neck, burying your fingers in his hair. His tongue swiped on the bottom of your lip and you opened your mouth. Your tongues met and you moaned softly in his mouth, tugging at the hair on the nape of his neck.
You pulled away, needing air. Kai opened his eyes, a big, content smile resting on his lips. 
“And friends don’t kiss friends like that. So please, give me a chance. Let me show you I’m different than what you think. Let me show you me in a new light. I can change for you. I want to change. Don’t deny what we have, Y/n.”
You stared into his eyes, knowing you couldn’t deny your feelings any longer. You gave him a small, sweet smile and nodded your head. “Okay, I’ll give you a chance. Prove me wrong, Parker.”
Kai took his hands off your waist, first pumping the air. “I will, I promise.”

Warnings: Angst but it’ll end well i promise, swearing
Tumblr media
-IF YOU HAVE ANY REQUESTS DONT HESITATE TO ASK-
Things after the war ended had been chaotically peaceful. Turns out that leading an entire nation, specially when it was the one that caused the war, and reuniting the lands that had for so long been against eachother was harder than all of you thought. The fact that a group of teenagers were the head of the operation wasn’t a big advantage either.
Sure, Aang and Zuko, who were the ones who had the most important positions when it came to politics and diplomacy, had advisors and people around to help guide them, but it was still a hard job. Nevertheless, without a war or fighting, you were sure it was good for the entire group to keep busy. They’d kept a lifestyle of always moving around and being on guard for so long it would’ve been a big shock to be forced to stay still after that.
Katara and Sokka travelled back and forth from the Southern Water Tribe to the Fire nation a few times, not too often though because of how far apart the two were. That was a shame because of how close you’d grown to Katara and her motherly self, her advice and her unconditional friendship, and even to Sokka and his bad jokes, his way of teasing everyone and how he could make you smile even when you weren’t in the mood, you even missed how mad he made you sometimes. Suki went with them to spend some time away from everything, she loved her life as a Kioshi warrior but she decided she needed a break after everything she had gone through.
Aang, on the other hand, was traveling all over but mostly between the Earth kingdom, were he would very often meet with Katara, and the Fire nation. You got to see him way more often than you got to see Katara, Suki and Sokka, although he tended to be busy with avatar business. He was doing a great job, you had to admit. The people loved him, he found a way to spread his teachings and the teachings of the Air nomads to the world and uniting others helping them put aside their differences seemed to be his thing now more than ever. But most importantly he seemed truly happy, one time he even told you he finally felt like he was making all the air nomads proud, wherever they were.
Toph still wanted to be away from her parents, so she refused to go back to the Earth Kingdom. She hated the cold, not being able to use her seismic senses in the snow and being bossed around by katara, so she refused to go with them too. So when you offered her to stay with you, she accepted. She made it seem as though it was her last choice because she had to keep her tough girl reputation, but actually she liked you a lot, she saw you kind of as a big sister. You took care of her in a way no one had before, not seeing her as helpless and weak but still being there for her when she needed you. Though she’d never tell this to anyone aloud.
And Zuko was still Zuko, just that now he was a Firelord. He took his job very seriously, determined to prove wrong everyone who had said he was too young or too weak for it. He knew the big responsibility he had in his hands and he seemed to be doing really well. He had his moments, of course, where he would have outbursts of emotion and anger, but he always found his way back to being who he needed to be for his Nation, and you always helped with that. He was the one who suggested you stayed in the Fire nation as a representative of the Northern Water tribe. You were hesitant at first, but after thinking the idea over you realized you had no business up in the tribe, you’d been away for a long time and you weren’t ready to go back just yet.
The two of you had never been incredibly close in the time since he joined the gaang, but you couldn’t denied there was a connection between the two. You got his humor and he got yours, you could tease eachother all day without getting butthurt, you could open up and talk about deep stuff under the stars on a sleepless night, and spending time with him seemed easier to do than with most people. You’d brushed this off as the two of you being good friends for a good while, even after you moved into the palace and started to hang out with him more, but for the past few weeks it’s been getting harder to do.
Every time Toph, him and you ate lunch together and he sat in front of you, you couldn’t help but end up staring at him, not in a weird, creepy way but in a ‘I’m mesmerized by you why am i mesmerized by you and since when are your eyes such a beautiful shade of gold’ way. You were in denial about it but deep down you knew you were starting to have a crush on him, and eventually Toph caught up to it too.
One night after diner she pulled you into her room, closed the door and said “Listen, Snow queen, I’m kinda tired of your heart going crazy every time mister flaming pants is around so you either get over your little crush, tell him how you feel or I will personally snitch on you directly to him, understood?” You didn’t even have the guts to deny it to her, specially since she’d know if you were lying, so you just heavily sighed and looked at the floor. She must’ve felt bad for you cause she took your hand and dragged you to sit on her bed to interrogate you about the situation.
“Out of anyone you could’ve ended up liking I never saw this one coming” she told you taking a seat on the opposite side of the bed
“Don’t get me started” you threw yourself back to the bed and stared at the ceiling for a second before speaking again “Like how dumb do I have to be to crush on someone who isn’t only probably the busiest man on all kingdoms right now, but also royalty and... well Zuko. He would never like a girl like me and even if he did, he probably has to end up with a princess or something.”
“I’m not letting you drown in a pity party here, ok?” Toph pulled your wrist and forced you to sit back up and look at her. “He’s lucky a girl as decent as you is willing to put up with that temper of his and how annoying he can get. Now what are you gonna do about it?”
“Nothing?” You replied in a low voice not taking a second to think about it. Toph punched you in the arm in response “Hey, what was that for?”
“What I said before still stands, I can’t deal with you being all flustered every time he’s around, so get over it or tell him how you feel.” She spat and all you could do was grunt and throw yourself back into the bed
So you were gonna get over it then. Easy task. Never done anything easier before.
It wasn’t.
Turns out that by trying to avoid Zuko at all costs you ended up stumbling into him even more. Around the corners, in the hallways, everywhere. The plan was to just avoid him as much as possible until eventually your feelings faded away, you couldn’t have a crush on someone you didn’t even see right? Wrong. Even when you weren’t around Zuko he was still on your mind. You tried to go to the palace library and distract yourself with literature, but reading romance books only made you feel more miserable and the only other option there was were war strategy books which you weren’t very interested in. The next distraction you chose was gardening, you loved nature and you were a water bender, it was the perfect task you thought, but once again you were wrong. You turned out to be such a bad gardener, Kya who was the one in charge of the royal gardens (and who was the sweetest lady) ended up banning you from messing with her flowers ever again. The last thing you could think of to stay away from Zuko was feeding the turtle ducks. It seemed like a good idea and on the few occasions you’d been in the pond before, the little animals seemed to be very fond of you. You couldn’t mess this one up, anyone could feed the ducks, but there was a little problem as it seemed to be the theme of that day, the Fire lord had forgotten to tell you that the pond was his place of choice when he needed to clear his head.
You didn’t even notice he was there until you heard his voice behind you. “Keep feeding them like this and they’ll get obese”
You jumped a bit out of surprise and turned around to face him with your palm pressed to your chest. “Spirits, Zuko, don’t do that to me, you’re gonna kill me one of these days” It was a bright and sunny day, the heat of the Fire nation weather made his face glimmer a little, his hair was up held by the royal Fire lord hair piece and he was wearing a version of his formal attire made for a hotter weather, leaving his muscly arms on display. As soon as you realized you were staring once again, you turned your attention back to the pond in an attempt to hide the blush that was slowly conquering your cheeks.
He took a sit next to you and waited a couple seconds before breaking the silence. “Hey... um... I don’t know if this is just me but you’ve been acting weird lately, is everything ok?” He asked looking at you.
“Everything is fine, definitely just you.” you replied not taking your eyes away from the shining water of the pond. The ducks had grown tired of waiting for you to keep feeding them and swam away.
“I... don’t think so. You didn’t come to breakfast today, everytime we’re together you seem to wanna leave as soon as possible and right now you can’t even look at me.” He paused before taking in a deep breath. “Did... did I do something to upset you?”
You finally turned around to look at him and the look you saw in his eyes was heartbreaking. Ever since he joined Team Avatar, Zuko had been making a huge effort to be good. You could see how sometimes he struggled to pick being kind and gentle over being erratic and explosive, and you also knew that had a lot to do with his childhood. But he had been doing such a good job at it, specially since he became Fire lord, he was so much more friendly, better at socializing and overall improving. And right now it was clear to you that you had made him feel like he was failing at being a good person and he’d somehow messed up with you.
You turned your body around slightly and put a reassuring hand on his knee before saying “Oh, Zuko, no. You haven’t done anything and I’m not upset at you, I mean that. It’s just...” coming up with lies and excuses had always been your strong point but having Zuko there making you ridiculously nervous wasn’t a factor that helped. “I.. uh...I’m getting a little homesick, you know? With Toph gone most of the day and you busy, I’ve been feeling a little melancholic about my home, but it’s nothing I promise. I’m just trying to find something to do with my time.” You we’re impressed with yourself with this one, it actually sounded pretty convincing.
You thought you had the situation handled until Zuko spoke again a few seconds later. “Y/N, I’m sorry. I hadn’t realized until now with all the chaos of being Fire lord but I asked you to stay here and represent the Northern Water tribe and I haven’t even given you time out of my day. I haven’t been the best host, have I?” Before you could even reply he widened his eyes and said “I have an idea, tomorrow I’ll take the day off and we can go on a small field trip to this cabin my family has on the ourskirts of town, there are some nice fields and it’s very peaceful, we’ll have a picnic lunch there and just relax. You can even ask Toph to come with. How does that sound?”
He looked at you expectantly and you started to look for reasons to turn him down, but you couldn’t bring yourself to do it. It was true that you hadn’t had much time to spend with him ever since he took his position, and in all honesty, crush or not you really did miss him. Your weakness for him won the battle and you ended up accepting the plan saying it was a great idea. The regent stood up from his place and assuring you he’d have everything ready for the next day he left.
You really had messed up this time.
—————
The next morning you put on a flowy, flower-print dress. It was classy but at the same time comfortable and light enough to handle the summer weather. You had nervously been looking at yourself in the mirror for way too long now. Before dinner the past night you at least had hopes that Toph would come with to the field trip and she would help you contain yourself when it came to Zuko, but of course that wasn’t the case. When he had brought the topic up at the table Toph limited herself to look at you knowingly and say “You know what? I happen to be very busy tomorrow, you know, I’m trying to get a name for myself in the Fire nation’s fighting scene and I have a fight tomorrow, sorry.” You knew she was lying because she had told you about her fight but instead of the next day it was three days from then. All you could do was look at the little devil and make sure you wrote a mental note of getting back at her as soon as you could.
So here you were, minutes ago from embarking in a field trip with the person you were supposed to avoid, and you had no idea how you were gonna get out of this one.
A knock on your door startled you and took you out of your worrying thoughts. A few seconds later a maid’s head popped in as she said “Lady Y/N, Firelord Zuko and the carriage are ready for you.” You took a deep breath and walked towards the door while replying with a soft “Thank you, Yun”
The carriage waited for you in front of the palace and so did Zuko. He was already inside, sheltering himself from the unforgiving sun, so you startled him when you hopped inside. “Y/N, you look...nice” he complimented you, a faint blush running through his cheeks making him gain a more childish and youthful look.
“Thank you, Zuko. Likewise.” You responded attempting to stay as calm as you could. You hated that he had so much power over you.
He ordered for you to be in your way before the carriage started moving swiftly. Your eyes flowed to the window, looking out at the capital city of the Fire nation. “You’ve done a great job leading this people. They look... so happy.” You drew your eyes back at Zuko as he stared at you. It was you who was starting to blush now.
“I hope so. I’ve done everything I’m capable of to change the old ways of this nation. I hope I’m making the right choices.” A worrisome look took over his eyes as he let his own attention drift towards the streets.
“Hey” you called to him as you stretched your hand to cover his. “You’re doing just fine Zuko. You’ve done so much for these people and all the other nations as well, I’m sure you’ll do even more good.”
He faintly smiled at you as a response and you could tell that although he did worry about the future, your reassurance helped.
The rest of the ride was spent pointing out the animals you saw on the road, sharing childhood stories about when Zuko and his mom used to come here when they both needed to get away from everything, and a bit of teasing about how Zuko had no idea what to pack for a picnic and had to ask the head chef of the kitchen for help. Luckily you had become friends with chef Karou in the time you’d been living in the palace and he knew your taste rather well.
When you finally arrived there was no sight of the usual movement and noise proper of a big city, the air was filled with the peculiar scent of flowers you couldn’t recognize just yet and grass. In the distance at your left you could see a small cattle of Hippo cows and Komodo chickens. And at your right a long field of grass and flowers that seemed to go up in a small and almost unnoticeable hill.
You and Zuko stepped down the carriage just as a guard handed him the picnic basket. The tall regent turned to you and ordered “Follow me, I wanna show you something”. You did as you were told, being led by him all the way up the hill until you were at the very top. When the two of you got there your breath was taken away by the beautiful view you had in front of you. A huge field of flowers layed gracefully at the end of the hill and extended far enough that it connected to the horizon.
“This is...” you started but were so taken aback by the view you didn’t finish your sentence.
Zuko seemed to understand regardless and replied “I know.” Behind you he started to set up a cloth for the two of you to sit on. You forced yourself to remove your attention from the field and place it on what was going on behind you. Taking a seat on the opposite end of the cloth you helped him take out all the items chef Karou had packed for you. When you were done you looked at Zuko and said “Thanks for this. It’s really nice.”
“No need to thank me, I’ve been leaving you alone so much time lately. I know aside from Toph I’m pretty much all you have here so take this as a ‘Sorry I’ve been a terrible friend’ offering.” He smiled wide expecting you to do the same but that smile faded away as soon as he saw the expression on your face.
‘Friend’
The word echoed in your head as your eyes dropped to the food you had in front of you. Of course he saw you as a friend. You had almost convinced yourself you should confess your feelings to him and he goes on to call himself your friend. A knot in your throat started to form and you did your best to show it as little as you could. But you obviously failed.
“Everything ok?” Zuko asked tilting his head to catch your eyes.
You looked up and faked a smile. “Yeah... just thinking how far we’ve come.” You lied through your teeth before continuing. “Anyways, enough of all the cheesiness, I’m starving.”
“Agreed” He replies picking up something for himself. You chose a small salty biscuit with a mix of meats on top and decided to distract yourself with it. “Chef Karou said you’d like that one. He also said you hated onions and peas. What type of weirdo hates peas?”
You chuckled a little, the feeling that oppressed your chest fading away quickly. “I do. They’re disgusting and if you like them I don’t trust you.”
Zuko laughed loudly before remarking “Its not like I like them, Y/N. It’s just a weird thing to be picky over. They’re peas, they don’t really taste like anything.”
You widened your eyes and quickly swallowed the bite of biscuit you had taken. “What do you mean they don’t taste like anything? They taste disgusting and they are mushy and just... gross”
Zuko replies with another laugh. His laugh made you feel warm inside, it could make you forget about everything, Toph’s threats, your previous plans and even the now faint voice poking the back of your mind telling you to be careful or you’d get your heart broken.
The two of you kept eating and chattering at the same time. You’d finished the salty food and it came time for the desert. Chef Karou had made a type of cake and stored it inside a small glass jar. You tried opening the lid but it was too hard. You heard Zuko in front of you offering you help but you refused it telling him you could do it on your own. After a couple minutes of struggling , Zuko took your deep sigh as a sign of defeat and scooted closer to you. “Here, let me.” He took the jar from your hands and quickly opened the lid, handing it back to you. You looked up expecting to find a smug smirk that felt way to familiar to you at this point but instead you found his serious face dangerously close to yours.
You took the jar back and set in down. “Thanks” you muttered softly and quietly. His only response was to slowly but firmly raise a hand up to your face to put away a strand of hair that had fallen. His touch sent shivers down your spine. All thoughts of caution escaped your mind as you felt his face so close you could feel his warm breath mixing with yours. The tension between you seemed to almost be to much to handle when you thought you saw Zuko lean in a little. Before anything else could happen, one of the guards that had come with and stayed back where the carriage was spoke. “Firelord Zuko”
The golden eyed boy dropped his hand from your face and turned around to face the guard. “Have they not taught you to not interrupt people when they’re talking privately?”
“I am very sorry, Firelord.” The guard bowed in sign of respect. “But we have just received a messenger hawk with a letter from the palace. The Avatar and you other friends are here.”

An Innocent Sin & the good gay flashback ft. my descent into madness
I wasn’t sure if I should post this but I mostly want it archived so here we go. This is from like,, September?
So. “An Innocent Sin” is a dumpster fire unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I don’t remember why I decided to read it. maybe I was crazy. Either way... I read it. It soon started to touch upon (very very outlandish) sexual abuse which I thought was interesting. (the angst, not so much some of the wack circumstances surrounding it)
ANYWAY. at some point... we have a flashback. And not just that. It has a gay character.
And it turns rly gay. which mind you, is still in a het smut manwha (that has a “gay” side couple, but still!)
And it destroyed me.
For those who want to read it because I genuinely think the flashback is a decent bit, it’s all the bonus chapters between chapter 77 and 78 I think. There’s a part before that too, but idk where exactly anymore. (It’s on lezhin! or your platform of choosing)
I don’t THINK you’ll need any other knowledge to get the flashback bit? but it’s been a while.
Below the cut (rip mobile users), you can read all of my amazing reactions (all of these were text messages, for context - but I took most of the replies and convos about other things out). Post is also tagged as long post. :))
(i’m serious, this is fucking long)
__________
Here I am. Liking the gay flashback character. Feck. Main dude is still straight but idk it's cute pff
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is a mess. The girl white hair likes, likes black hair, maybe, but thinks white hair is attractive
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What just happened is sth I'd like to know too pff He's so cute tho omg. Watch me melt Can we stay in this flashback before everything got perverted af and before white hair gets assaulted all the time I would send an eyebrow emote if I could Context: he's asking he says it again
Tumblr media
Ik it's not mutual but loookkk he's so sweet. He's kinda rude in present time, can't we stay in this flashback forever
I never asked for gay, never expected gay but I got gay
This story is trash why am I still reading it shdhhd
He caught his mom cheating. And now she's forcing him to watch??? What is thissss Well adoptive mom But still sudhdidu what Bitch how dare YOU exist
Tumblr media
Save my babyyyy
Yay sister that's not yet a rapist to the rescueee
This flashback is actually just nicer in every way let's just stay here This is a super long flashback btw Idek anymore what triggered it
Okay I think I'm gonna make the sensible decision and let this dumpster fire rest and just go sleep
It was very wild. I kinda wanna see white hair get therapy but it has 90 chapters and I'm at like 30... So I'm very concerned this is gonna be very dragged out. Idek if it's even finished ahahsududi - but I do kinda wanna see where it goes and see more cute Noah (white hair) so. Here we are.
yeahhh like i was down for the sexual abuse angst but then the mother killed the adoptive son's mother bc the dad had a thing for her?? and it was someone a person studying with white hair knew and so he's investigating and I'm like how did this turn into a crime organisation kind of plot
hhhhhhh i... i appreciate these horny things also tackling abuse but it always kind of gives me weird vibes to have both, especially when its very horny. And when people are horny to people who've been abused. Idk but I'd assume... you might try NOT to tie them up if they're frequently bondaged during their assaults. I'm just.... disjdksdj hello?? am i weird?? why are they fine with it???
also this manwha is so wild, theres this murder mystery investigation thing and then theres just a couple doing honry stuff sprinkled in between and i'm like OKAY
they rescued a guy in their basement and he's understandably very traumatized and they're trying to question him cut to our main couple trying bondage which i still dont understand bECAUSE HE'S A RAPE VICITM WHY ARE YOU OKAY WITH THIS the ones questioning arent the main couple of course but idshkjds
like im glad he's somehow okay with all this horny stuff despite his trauma and im glad he can be happy and have a nice relationship but DO WE NEED THIS MUCH OF IT he's very cute tho
i like that even when i try other stuff lezhin recommends me it still has large amount of gay in it
[mei: i mean... that's pretty great, if you ask me]
I mean I agree, I'm enjoying the gay eheheh these tonal whiplashes there's not even that much white space between the panels fhjd nvm it just turned horny goddamn it can there be 1 chapter without fucking? okay, there were the flashbacks

DOHYE NO YOU WERE SO DECENT WHY ARE YOU LYING ABOUT KOREAN TRADITIONS TO GET HIM TO DO STUFF HORNY STUFF TOO NO PLS STOP I JUST- WHEEE TvT the manwha is actually less visually horny in the flashbacks but im not sure if its bc its BL which isnt rly the genre of the manwha or if its bc they're still kids basically, which... I'd respect the latter, tho I'd prefer it to be like this constantly haha
okay. he's not respecting stop anymore, but it's also more of embarrassed nature more than "no i dont want this stop" so maybe i can forgive it. Still losing points, but he hugged him and it was sweet so HHHHHHHHHHH NOT SURE HOW I SHOULD JUDGE THIS SITUATION
They [Noah’s family] forbid him to visit his friends house I AM DEVASTATED
Tumblr media
understandable they're a rapist, a fucked up murderer mother and a father with a thing for younger women so
tho he dont know any of that but yknow he's so pretty just fucking end me on the spot
Tumblr media
hooo
Tumblr media
they are boyfriends and ik from the future that his sister is gonna ruin it allll she has those drugs that make visual imaginations feel like they rly happened to the person (dont know if thats real but holy fuck its terrifying) and she's used it before to say that Noah assualted her. and im pretty sure shes gonna use it again bc there was a panel of Noah remembering Dohye being uhhhh intimate with her and thats why Noah began to hate him and im so sad im not ready for it. bc he's denied it in the future and i honestly couldnt see it happening even before that or she drugged Dohye, i guess thats a possibility too
[current tori: oh girl, it’s neither and it’s wack]
which if, btich you gonna die even more enough rambling, more reading. this makes me so sad but also spicy
Tumblr media Tumblr media
on the manwha note, he thinks Noah doesnt like his family bc he's adopted and doesnt feel comfy which....... fair enough i suppose. and he's so cute im gonna melt just looK AT THIS 
Tumblr media
SHUt UP, IM GONNA CRY
Tumblr media

Doyhe kept an eye on him im so emo :(( but he thought he was doing well enough and gave up.... Im im so sad no i want you to make up and get back together its all just a stupid........... MEHHHH will i ever find sth like this flashback again
[mei: p-probably not, no]
i am so devasted i dont even wanna go back to the main couple just fucking. i want this relationship back :(((( but i guess the investigation might end up somewhere so hhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhh the baker manwha had a similar flashback feeling so. i just gotta find more of that haha
BUT THIS WAS SO SAD??? im so emo
[Dohye got kidnapped // the flashback commentary stops here but I think my descend into madness is pretty funny too]
OH YEAH THAT HAPPENED. THE FLASHBACK WAS SO LONG I FORGOT. NOOOO SAVE HIM. JESUS CHRIST PLS JUST ONE GOOD THING
its. actually rly smart to have another, more focused on them flashback, before the arc where he gets kidnapped by the rapist murder household so. good job. from a meta perspective but also NO but also. maybe theres hope for them making up at least after all :(((
[main couple kissing] this is. very weird now. but im glad he has someone, he deserves it but dohyeeeee
and switching to sex, YET AGAIN now i wanna see this EVEN LESS THAN I DID BEFOREEEE it's even.... a threesome now with one of the other characters why are you like this why can't you be. like in the flashback i am so upset HAHHHHH WHEEEZEEEE
I am just stop fucking jesus christ PLEASE I DONT WANNA SEE IT ANYMOREEEEE
im just stop the horny pls just tell me who that new guy is and why doyhe likes him so much
[mei: this manwha is a fucking mess but at least we got your lovely commentary out of it]
dhsuksj thanks i feel honored at least i got cute BL out of it before everything went [back] to shit
[mei: THAT TOO]
[...]
tbh im getting kinda mad about doyhe... i dont... feel like he'd just fall instantly for a guy who looks like Noah... but eh not my character
i just want closure for dohye at this point, fuck everything else ... not literally pls theres already too much of that
pls get it together for like 1 chapter is the investigation even still happening i am so confused save dohye plEASE wait what i have less than 10 episodes left Dont tell me this shit isnt even wrapped up yet
[Dohye is having a breakdown over the Noah double not coming to see him anymore]
yeah i this... doesnt feel like Dohye... at all... Even when Noah was rejecting him he was just kind of... taking it with some humor and maybe he was a little desperate and risky sometimes but... oh well... i do want him to get better but... im having a hard time believeing this development??? he never seemed overly anxious or anything. but who knows what else they did to him. Sister can still go fuck off tho
[...]
i mean. i liked the flashbacks a lot honestly??? it stayed simple and focused on the dynamics and less trying to balance smut with murder plots
[dm partner: NO THAT'S WHAT I MEAN LIKE CLEARLY THE AUTHOR CAN MAKE A GOOD STORY SO I'M JUST... CONFUSED AS TO WHY THEY DIDN'T STICK WITH SOME SOFT, FLUFFY BL ROMANCE MANWHA AND DECIDED TO MAKE WHATEVER THIS IS INSTEAD ]
okay i dont care bc dohye is currently getting assaulted nobody asked for this why i just. this is terrible. he was... so sweet. he doesnt deserve this. nobody does of course but jesus christ pls someone save him at least its not horny visually, one saving grace
ah... the assult is back to being depicted horny-ly thank you for nothing
[... removed some general confusion about the plot]
Tumblr media
YES. SOME SHIP FOOD.
Tumblr media
i am. suffering i mean i cant stop but GOD
okay so apparantly. the sister. has just an arsenal of people who look like other people Dohye, then Noah... and even Noah's GF??? this is ridiculous??
one good message 
Tumblr media
why 
Tumblr media
did you feel the need to add that [actual tired rage]
im gonna die this manwha is gonna kill me im laughing but im suffering oh hes arrested great and thats the end and the last update was in january of this year
why AS IN NOAH IS ARRESTED nobody who actually did anything is arrested What is this why is this AHHH I at least wanted the complete-ness of finishing this but now I'M JUST SUFFERING
[ mei: I MEAN TO BE FAIR I'D BE SUFFERING TOO BC JUST... WHAT THE FUCK I HAVE?? MANY QUESTIONS?? AND MANY CONCERNS BC THIS MANWHA IS JUST... AN EXPERIENCE ]
its an experience allright WELL
_______________
yup that’s it.
in my head, in a twist of events Dohye and Noah make up and are actual endgame. Something like that must exist out there but I won’t ask because it’d destroy the surprise and ruin the point.
That’s it.
Have a nice day.

my plus one - part 9
Tumblr media
MASTERLIST 
(ik its been a while for an update and im sorry!!! jobs been crazy and being an adult SUCKS. lolll i hope u all like this part and i cant wait for the wedding chapter *evil face*)
Word Count: 1,351
The adrenaline you felt as you rush out of the after party was insane. You were a shaking mess as you move your head around fast in hopes of spotting Roger nearby, but you didn’t. Your heart was racing as you stop suddenly and cover your face with your hands. You know people were staring at you as you just sigh loudly. You were frustrated and needed a moment to think. Your brain felt scrambled after everything that had just happened. This wasn’t making it any better. 
“Y/n?” 
You hear a voice call out your name as you turn around with a bit of hope. It was only your sister with a champagne glass in her hand and a genuinely worried - almost glossy eyed - look on her face. 
“I saw you run out like there was a fire. Everything okay?” she asks as she walks up to you. 
Your face falls as you try to compose yourself. You couldn’t tell her why you were so riled up. You should, but you don’t. 
“Oh, um… I’m just looking for Roger.” you tell her as you catch your breath. 
“Oh, yeah. I saw him rush off as well. Is he alright?” 
“I just need to find him!” you say a little too loud, causing her to step back. 
“I… I think maybe he went back next door to the resort possibly.” 
Before she finished her sentence, you were already sprinting towards the large building. Why hadn’t you thought of that!? Of course that’s where he’d go! You hurry inside and zoom towards the elevator. You click the button and impatiently wait for it to get to you. You’re tapping your foot as you stare up at it. You clench your jaw as you slam your hands on the metal doors in front of you. 
“Hurry up!” you half shout, ignoring the whispers and stares from all around.
Finally the elevator beeps and arrives to your floor. You take a step back and as soon as the doors start to open, you’re rushing forward, but stop. You half run into Roger as he’s stood inside the elevator with a bag in his hand. His eyes are wide when he realizes it’s you. You almost gasped as you back away and allow him to step out. 
“Roger,” you whisper, not knowing what to say. “Roger, I-” 
“Stop.” he says fast as he closes his eyes. “Just… Stop. You don’t have to explain anything. I understand completely.” 
You knit your brows as you try to wrap your head around what he was trying to say. 
“Understand what?!” 
Roger just stares at you with big, blue puppy dog eyes that almost broke your heart. 
“You invited me here to make yourself look better, y/n. Don’t deny it, because we both know it’s true. You wanted to make Alex jealous and, well, it apparently worked. You got what you wanted, right?” 
You shake your head fast and take a step towards him. Your eyes were pleading as you speak. 
“No! No, that’s not true! I wanted you here, because you’re my best friend!” 
“And because you didn’t want to look lonely at your sister’s wedding! You know, you actually made me believe that you liked me back. You really need an Oscar for that performance.” he snarks. 
Roger goes to walk around you, but you follow close behind. 
“I wasn’t faking anything, Rog! Please just let me explain!” 
Roger flings around fast and his eyes are now red and glossy. 
“Explain what!? How you used me to get back at Alex and your sister? What? You were going to kiss him and then rub it in your sister’s face? Well, what are you waiting for? I’m no longer needed here anymore.” 
He shrugs his shoulders and turns back around and walks away. 
“That’s not what happened! You won’t even let me explain!” you shout frustrated.
Roger continues walking as he speaks. 
“For someone who’s been severely heartbroken, you’re really good at doing the breaking. Must’ve learned pointers from Alex.” 
You stop walking at his last sentence. That shattered you. Your shoulders slump as he exits the resort building and disappears into the dark night. He wouldn’t even let you explain how it was Alex who kissed you. You didn’t want it. But now he’s gone and you’re stood all alone in a resorts lobby with your tears smearing your mascara. You didn’t know what to do now. You wanted to run after him, but you wanted to go to your room. You wanted to scream, but you wanted to curl up and sleep. You wanted to move, but you couldn’t. 
You just stare down at the floor beneath you and wrap your arms around yourself. You turn your head and watch as people with sad faces watch you. They were almost hurting for you as well. They heard everything that had happened and you were beyond embarrassed. You quickly smile and wipe your eyes as you keep your head down and walk back to the elevator. It opens up and you walk inside. You press the button and lean against the wall, resting your head back. You close your eyes and allow silence to wash over you. You reach your floor and go to your room. You lock the door behind you and finally allow yourself to sob like you’ve wanted to. You stumble to your bed and fall onto it.
Everything was, once again, falling apart all around you. Maybe you had a curse or just very bad luck. Whatever it is, it drove the one person you loved away and you weren’t sure how to fix any of this. Luckily, tomorrow was a free day due to all of the guests arriving. You were planning on hiding away and slumbering all day. You’d order room service and stare at the TV until you couldn’t hold your eyes open any longer. Your heart was hurting, but you felt numb. It was the oddest sensation. 
You had finished sobbing and threw yourself onto your bed. You closed your eyes and all you could think about was Roger. You should've chased after him, but that wouldn’t have gotten you anywhere. Sleep overtakes you as you’re still dressed in the clothes you had worn to the rehearsal. You didn’t care, you just wanted this day to be over with. 
***
And it finally was. You had done everything you planned to do. You stayed in bed as you randomly had outbursts of tears. You ordered room service and watched crappy daytime television. You knew you should go greet everyone and say hi, but you couldn’t. Tomorrow was the wedding and you were torn if you should tell your sister what had happened or just let her have her happily forever after with Alex. As much as you were angry at her, you still love her. Just because you couldn’t get your good ending, doesn’t mean she can’t. Even if the fairytale she’s in is fake. Nobody would believe you anyways.
It was dark now as the moon hung high in the sky. You could hear the waves outside your room crashing against the shore as you felt yourself dozing off. 
RING RING RING 
Your eyes shoot open as your heart races. You look around fast and to your phone on the nightstand table. You rub your eyes as you lazily reach for it and suddenly wake up a bit more. Roger was calling you. You click the green button and bring it to your ear fast. 
“Roger?!” you ask as you hold your breath. 
You don’t hear anything on the other side as it hangs up. You frown and lower the phone as you toss it on the bed beside you. He must’ve butt dialed you. You got your hopes up once more and lay back down. You exhale as you turn to your side and stare at the empty wall. Tomorrow’s the official wedding and you weren’t sure how you were going to cope with it. 
What you didn’t know is just how interesting it’s going to be.

starstruck (2)
Heyyyyyy so I stuck to my word lol.
I’m basically unable to function after seeing far from home this evening but also it was so good. I teared up when tom did and my mom made fun of me but its okay because his acting was awesome! Highly recommend y’all see it (even tho ik you probably will if you haven’t already lol)
Ps this is my first time linking one post to another so please lmk if it doesn’t work, but if it’s not, you’ll always be able to access this through my starstruck tag!
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10
Fandom: Tommo Holland
Ship: Tom Holland x Reader eventually
Setting: LA
Word Count: 1386 (lol it’s shorter this time srry)
Warnings: i actually don’t think there’s any here, but lmk if there should be
Rating: K+ still
Background: part 2 of my DCOM inspired fic
B/f/n: your best friend’s name
                             __________________________________
Previously on starstruck...
The faint remains of his cologne wafted to your nose and you couldn’t help but breathe it in. You relaxed further into his grip and stayed comfortable until you heard a buzz on the table next to you.
You decided to ignore it until it happened two more times. Finally, you decided to wiggle out of Tom’s grip and succeeded without waking him. You picked up the cell and noticed it was 10 a.m. and all three texts were from b/f/n
Hey I’m coming over
I’ll bring ice cream since you said you weren’t doing too hot yesterday 
I’m on my way
“No. No, no, nonoNO,” you exclaimed, getting louder and louder, causing Tom to sleepily ask,
“Could you keep it down, darling?” 
“No, I can’t ‘keep it down,’ Thomas, because b/f/n is ON HER WAY HERE!”
“What!?” 
He sat up fully awake.
“We have to get you out of here without her seeing, and she’s probably gonna be here in like 5 minutes.”
Tom rushed to get up and find his keys that were in the pocket of his discarded jacket while you hurried to brush your hair and take a makeup wipe to your face.
You clambered down the stairs and hurried Tom through the kitchen and into the laundry room when you heard the doorbell ring, and when you didn’t answer in apt time, it began ringing like crazy.
Panic stuck your chest and you looked at Tom.
“Open the garage and leave in 5 minutes, then text me so I can close it.” You commanded, beginning to walk towards the entryway.
“Wait, wait,” he grabbed your arm, “I don’t have your number!”
You scrawled it down on a sticky note and ran, hoping he would get out safely and quickly. You opened the door to find b/f/n holding two pints of ice cream, raspberry sorbet for you and coffee ice cream for herself.
“My gosh what took you so long? I about started searching for the spare key with all these goods melting.”
You were about to reply when the door between the garage and utility room shut loudly. 
“Uh, who was that?” she asked, knowing your parents were at work.
“Oh, uh, a friend from dance. We’re working on a piece together and we decided to talk about it last night since I hurt my head,” you lied.
B/f/n furrowed her brows for a second before letting it go and coming inside to set up your typical movie day in the living room. Meanwhile, you headed back to the kitchen to grab spoons and check your phone, where a new number had sent a message. 
I’m out so you’re good to close the door. Thanks again for the great night ;)
You smiled and sent back 
That makes it sound soooo much worse than what really happened haha. You made it out without suspicion too :)
You decided to put his number in as a contact, disguising him as “Clara Twinkletoes” after a joke made late into the previous night, then headed to the living room.
                             __________________________________
After finishing one movie and your separate ice creams, you both decided to take a break and were looking at your phones.
“Hey, I know you hate talking about Tom Holland,” you gave a side-eyed glance to the bringing up of his name, “but guess what? He liked my picture last night! I just remembered to tell you!” 
B/f/n held up her phone to show you the notification, then went back to staring at it excitedly. 
“That’s actually really cool. I’m happy for you,” you expressed, leaving out the fact that you had asked Tom to like it when you were talking about the post at 1 a.m.
A few minutes later, b/f/n breathed out a soft “woah.”
You looked at her in confusion.
“Y/n, look at this girl Tom was photographed with yesterday, she looks like your twin!”
Dread filled your stomach as you stared at the picture of you and Tom in his black Audi A8, that stupid ballet skirt wrapping your head.
“Yeah, maybe if I took ride alongs with celebrities and wore nineteen fifties headscarves,” you quipped, “you only think that girl looks like me because you want it to be me, b/f/n.”
“Hmm, I guess…” she trailed, taking back her phone to continue scrolling through Instagram.
Not long after, you got a text from Clara twinkletoes.
Have you seen the picture??? I’m getting tagged and you are too
Like… everyone thinks that girl is you
Psh as if. We can talk about it later, I’m busy with my gal pal
Fine. Also, I was wondering if you wanted to go with me to the beach tomorrow? I wanna talk about all this in person
Hmm. Maybe. Probably not ;) 
“Hey, b/f/n?” You asked tentatively.
“Yeah?”
“Is it cool if you don’t spend the night tonight? I need to go to dance early tomorrow since I took the day off and I’ve also got this head injury so…” 
it wasn’t a complete lie. You did have a head injury and your plan was to go to dance at some point, but you decided to leave out the part where you might actually go hang out with hot shot Holland.
“Oh, uh yeah, sure. My sister is coming into town this week so it’s probably for the best, you know how my mom is about cleaning the house and stuff,” she said, obviously trying to hide her disappointment.
Around 4 pm, she got up to leave. You had watched two more movies and eaten plenty more snacks throughout the afternoon. 
“I guess I’ll see you later, y/n. Hope you’re feeling better tomorrow,” she smiled. 
You returned the gesture and gave her a hug, then watched from the doorstep as she mounted her bike and rode off to her house only a few neighborhoods away, you feeling queasy about lying so much.
                            __________________________________
You headed upstairs after a light dinner and some TV. It was only about 8 o’clock, but the combination of a head injury, late night, and slight emotional distress (from lying to b/f/n) made you feel exhausted, not to mention you would be waking early the next day. 
You changed into sweats and flopped into bed, checking your social media for a little bit to wind down. 
Your snapchat was just pictures from friends, only a couple of them joking to you about the whole Tom Holland situation (but of course none of them knew the truth)
Twitter and Instagram, however, were a different story. After the premiere, you had chosen to turn off notifications and were especially happy to know it was the right choice. 
On Twitter, fan accounts and other people were replying to a joking tweet you had made days before the premiere in reply to b/f/n where you said “Why be friends with that tom holland guy when you could hang out with your superior best friend hmmmm?? He’s lame compared to me lolol” 
People were going nuts about it, divided over whether you were just messing around or if you really didn’t like him. Most of them chose the former, though you knew you had meant the latter. Other people were tweeting about you separately and debating about that picture from the day before.
You almost deleted your Twitter in a rash decision but realized how suspicious that could look and instead closed it and moved to instagram.
It too was overflowing with tags and comments and follows and likes. Your stomach churned as you realized how big this was becoming. Finally you made the choice to meet Tom tomorrow, even if it risked being caught again. You sent him a single text to let it be known:
Alright twinkletoes. Let’s go to the beach.
You figured you could reply to whatever he sent in the morning and put your phone on do not disturb before plugging it in and checking the alarm.
You snuggled into the sheets and buried your head into a pillow. A sweet and musky scent drifted into your nose and you took a deep breath. 
Tom’s cologne
You sat up, sniffing around the sheets, pillows, and covers, realizing he had left his scent everywhere. 
“I need to wash these sheets tomorrow” you breathed to yourself in an annoyed tone. 
With that you laid back down, glad that b/f/n wasn’t there to ask whose scent was all over your bed. Though you tried to convince yourself that you wanted the smell gone, had anyone been watching, they couldn’t deny the way you sunk into the bed and the faint smile that made its way to your lips as you drifted into slumber.
                            __________________________________
A/N: there’s chapter 2!! Hope you guys enjoy. I don’t think I’ll post 3 until this weekend but who even knows haha. Love y’all and am so happy to have your support!

a little more to it
Earlier today, @somekindofflowergirl and I decided to do some speed writing exercises to get us out of our respective ruts, and this ficlet of Sam realizing there’s a little more to Abby and Luka than she first thought was the result on my part. 
1200 words, also on ao3. 
Sam doesn’t set much store by the rumors. For one, she and Luka have only been broken up a few weeks, at least officially. Just because he and Abby are spending time together again doesn’t mean anything. 
At least, if it does, it’s probably just a fling. 
So she ignores the side-eye she gets from the other nurses and the loudly whispered comments about whether Abby and Luka have added benefits to their friendship yet. It’s not like she sees them much anyway, with her schedule being the opposite of Luka’s.
To her annoyance, the rumors only intensify when Eve switches her back to her regular schedule. Abby and Luka do look like they’re flirting, but she genuinely doubts they’re sleeping together so soon after everything she and Luka were.
After Sam fires Haleh—yes, she’ll admit it to herself, she fired her—even the pretense of whispers stop. Chuny nudges Malik when the three of them are in the lounge, and says, “Ten bucks that Abby is working off the frustration of that suspension with Luka every night.”
“Make it twenty,” Malik says with a shrug and a smirk.
It’s...a prickle of irritation at most. They’re trying to get to her. She knows she’s an outsider as far as the nurses go and didn’t help things by the Haleh fiasco. Still, she doubts Luka has moved on from her that fast.
The first time she really wonders if she’s wrong is a few days after Neela’s and Gallant’s wedding. Abby and Luka are standing down the hall, and Lockhart actually giggles at something Luka says, and he beams back at her and reaches for her hand. 
Sam ducks into the nearest exam room and puts it from her mind as best as she can.
Once Christmas rolls around, she can’t deny it. Abby and Luka are definitely involved. She wasn’t at Ike Ryan’s, but she heard all about them leaving together nearly immediately after arriving and exchanging gifts. Apparently they spent Christmas and New Year’s together too.
Driving Alex back from the prison after seeing Steve, she feels a stab of loneliness. She doesn’t want Luka back, but it would be nice to have someone. Especially if he’s just...passing time...with Abby. 
A few weeks later, Sam stops being surprised that Luka schedules Abby for the same shifts he works as much as possible. It’s not like he could have requested that for her when they were together, what with her being a nurse and having a nursing director to report to. 
He’s probably just horny, an impression that doesn’t really ease when she catches Luka and Abby making out in lockup. They don’t see her, so she goes on with the rest of her shift with a roll of her eyes. 
It’s February when she really realizes that it’s more than she could have known. He corners her in lockup when she’s trying to head out, and she’s a little annoyed. She just wants to be done for the day, not talk to her ex. 
“I just—I just wanted to talk to you about something. Uh, about me and Abby.”
“Oh, Luka, I know about you and Abby. Everyone knows.” Is he seriously so clueless to think they were being sneaky or subtle? She does want him to be happy, and tells him so.
And then he tells her the rest. Abby is pregnant. Pregnant. With his kid, and due in July. Jesus Christ, he didn’t waste time moving on at all, did he?
She takes a deep breath--the news doesn’t hurt, not as more than a bruise to her pride--and pastes on a smile. She congratulates him and hugs him, nearly cracking a more genuine smile when Luka all but runs out after that. 
He really was that desperate for a child of his own, huh? Sam almost pities Abby, and she says so to Haleh and Chuny after the word gets out. 
Chuny snorts and looks at her incredulously before shrugging and walking off, leaving Haleh looking at her with pity. “You don’t know, do you?”
“Know what?”
“Abby and Luka. They dated for a year back in 2000, 2001. He’s been in love with her that long, and she’s been crazy about him too. The only surprise is that it took them this long to get back together.”
It’s like she’s been slapped. “No one said. Abby said it was brief, not...not a major relationship.”
“You only asked Abby, right? And she didn’t know you, she’s not going to tell you anything. She hardly says anything anyway. But, Sam?”
“Yeah?”
“I’ve never seen either of them smile like this. They’re happier than they’ve ever been the entire time I’ve known them.”
Oh. So maybe...maybe she was the one Luka was passing time with. And maybe what Abby and Luka have is love. It smarts a little, but they do look happy.
Once the initial shock wears off, she starts to see it more. Oh, she doesn’t hear them say it or anything. But it’s a look, a gesture, the way he wordlessly supports Abby at every turn. 
She’s walking to work from the El one morning when she sees them in front of the Jumbo Mart, just holding hands and drinking their coffee. The simple domesticity of it is so intimate that she feels like a voyeur and hurries forward, ignoring the ache in her chest. She doesn’t want Luka, but to be so comfortable with another person the way Luka and Abby are (and she and Luka never were)? She smothers a sigh. 
After their son is born, it’s even more obvious that it never had anything to do with her. Luka is obviously a good dad, but the sweet way he dotes on Abby, even with the tension of being up in the NICU and Abby’s hysterectomy...it’s love. 
Any sting fades even more over the course of the year, and Sam just accepts that Abby and Luka are good as married. It’s a little bit of a surprise when she goes to a departmental dinner that turns out to be an actual wedding for them, but it’s...nice. And when Abby walks down the aisle, Sam catches a glimpse of Luka’s face. The love she sees there for Abby releases that last bit of wondering inside her, and she finally wishes him—them—well with everything in her. 
With Luka gone over the next year, she doesn’t think much about it until Abby tells all of them about her alcoholism. Sam knows it’s not fair, but between her own history and feeling like Luka doesn’t deserve whatever Abby clearly did, she lashes out.
Abby takes it until she doesn’t, and Haleh comes to her and tells her to piss off and mind her own business. Eventually she and Abby make tentative peace again, and when she sees her and Luka together—and happy as can be, under the circumstances—at Pratt’s funeral, it’s something of a relief that they’re obviously working it out. 
When Abby is in the ambulance bay waving goodbye to them and Luka only spares a glance and a smile at the group of them before focusing on his wife again, Sam bids them farewell. She sighs internally at this closure of a chapter, but then again, it’s been over a long time.

happy #rkfifth !
Tumblr media
i told myself i wasn’t going 2 do this b/c ... i’m lazy bean, but here we are anyway! let’s get it!
but anyways starting off rookies was kind of like a vacation to me, rp wise. before rk i had my own rp that lasted a while but during 2013, there was just some drama between members that i constantly had 2 deal with and honestly it was like ... dragging me down, making admining seem like a chore and i loathed logging on to the main b/c i knew there would be some shit w/ these certain people that i had to deal with. so seeing rk in the tags being a different kind of idol roleplay ( and shout out rk for being a trendsetter ) /and/ the fact that reserves were filling up so quickly for a new rp, i quickly sent in a muse.
and it was a little ... idk at first. i did feel out of place considering most came from a different rp in the beginning and i wasn’t, and on top of me being v awkward w/ talking 2 people on instant messengers, there was a bit of time where i felt like i didn’t fit in and almost dropped like 2 weeks after i joined, LOL. luckily at the time a lot of things were going on which helped w/ plotting and meeting new muses, and everyone was super friendly and nice and that’s what kept me here!!!
so then rk turned from a vacation you didn’t want to leave from -- i ended up slagging off p majorly on my responsibilities as an admin at my own rp for a while because i was having such a good time at rk -- it rly brought back my love for rp and muse and tbh if you look back at rksunyoung’s archive back in 2013 - early 2014, i don’t think i’ve ever written as much on tumblr as i did back then, LOL. rk has definitely had it’s ups and downs and i’ve dropped both of my muses before -- but it wasn’t too long before i was bringing them back because there really isn’t a place like rk within krp. that, along with the dedication between both members and admins, is why it’s lasted so long and is still thriving with a super active dash after five fucking years. that’s crazy!! i think i remember mei saying something similar on twitter -- but when i see old rp friends and they ask “omg ur /still/ at rk???”
so it’s obvious to see why this rp went from feeling like a vacation to a home, right?? it’ll always have a special place in my heart  ♡
anyways moving on to my characters too -- when i first brought rksunyoung, now miss rkxblue, i never thought that she would last more than a couple of months, much less be involved with so many things within rk’s history!! it’s ... p wild to think about, especially since i’m someone that has a hard time committing to hobbies and such. it’s been a fun ride watching her go from someone who was wild and reckless and had a problem with love and a little bit of anger issues to someone whos a lot more well rounded, a soft idiot LOL. she even finally got herself the sweetest boyfriend after four years of being shipless on the rp, which i still can’t wrap my head around because denying herself love and believing that it doesn’t exist was one of her /things/ for the longest time. the list of stuff she’s done is so long and now that it’s lead to her finally debuting it’s ... scary yet exciting for her, to be honest, she thought she’d be a trainee forever!! i’ve had a lot of ups and downs with her muse as well, to the point where there was like years ( i think ) of inactivity on my end and she should have 4238972389 more points than she does atm because of that. i do feel sorry for her b/c that was just me being lazy ofc, but in the end i’ve gotten my shit together on her and have been pumping out replies p consistently this year and plotting w/ trainees which has done wonders for her muse. and although hyomin was literally /the/ perfect fc for her considering her personality, the fc change 2 yura has also helped majorly with my muse and it’s been so much easier to plot and reply and even with her characterization too.
as for miss rknvna!! she hasn’t had as much development as sun, aside from her tumultuous rls with a former song minho and being a royal trainee during her first run, and that’s mainly been due to my laziness again jfkafl;a. the good thing tho is that i’ve finally been able to experience life as a rookie with her, considering the times my girls have become trainees were v quick ( sun’s first time was like a week or two after the rp opened, then 3 months after i rejoined w/ her, and nana became a trainee only a month after she joined the first time ) so it was nice to experience the freedom that came with being a rookie!! since 2018 has been sun’s year, i’m going to focus on nana for 2019 so that she can branch out more!!
i guess before i move on i should give shoutouts to all my other rkmuses throughout the years whose lives were so short that i can’t even remember their urls LOL -- my song jieun, park kyungri, goo hara, and choi jinri muses!! i’m sure there’s at least one more that i’m forgetting, but they all lasted around 2 weeks so...
but i also want 2 thank rk for allowing me to be more social as well!! i’ve said this in the last anniversary post i wrote 25238957 years ago but i used 2 have a phobia of sorts when it came 2 instant messengers, so i didn’t rly have one when msn was popping and therefore, didn’t talk 2 many people ooc wise in rps. i made an aim when i came to rk and just ... diving in and talking to people helped out a lot with that, even if i do still get anxious from time to time w/ just simply messaging people. :(
i’m a shy individual ( and for some reason its only exacerbated online??? idk fam ) and unconsciously rather private as well, so that definitely hinders me from making friends as much as i would like to, but it’s a day by day process!! it’s something i’ve come 2 terms w/ as of late and will seriously work on within the next year! but even w/ me being the way that i am, i’ve been able 2 meet a couple of people that have made my experience in rk just a little bit brighter so a ( very brief ) shout out 2 them ~
to maria ( @rkjinkis ) : my sweet angel!!! i’m so glad that rk brought us together because you’ve honestly become one of my closest friends from this rp and in general tbh!! ur so super sweet and caring and a blessing 2 my life, just as much as jinki is to ahyoung’s!! i’m sorry that sun is too independent for her own good but she’s working on it okay!! baby steps!! i love how genuine u are and how we can rely on each other through thick and then, and honestly i want the world for u and more. i love love love LOVE u so much, and i’ll make sure u never forget it!! thank u for being my friend and my source of happiness!!!  ♡ ♡ ♡

to mei ( @rkariel ) : man i admired u for the longest b/c i’ve always loved the way u write and ur characterization of tiffany / ariel, so when years ago nick told me that u were actually paying attention to the minana plot and threads i was so shook i nearly tripped over myself LMFAO. i’m happy that we actually started talking b/c of that tho!!! it’s so easy 2 write w/ u and i honestly have so much fun regardless if we’re just talking about our characters, getting carried away on dash or twitter, or hurting each other w/ headcanons!! ariel has become nana’s rock p much and w/o her i’m not sure how she would of fared her time w/ mino w/o her and their discussions!!! i hope that we can become closer in the future!!
to razel ( @rkcheri ) : hiya boo!!! ik we don’t rly talk anymore but i still wanted 2 mention u b/c u were one of my first friends in rk when i felt kinda lonely, and that was definitely one of the reasons i was able to stick around!! i loved writing w/ u b/c ur writing style was always so unique that i could actually point u out whenever we were in past rps together and it’s an honor 2 even write w/ u fjkalf;a. i’m sorry that sun is such a shitty friend and i’m looking forward 2 the day jihyun kicks her ass about not telling her about jinki b/c she deserves it LOL. but just, thank u!!!!
to amy ( @yienrk ) : are u surprised ur on here?? HAHA we don’t talk too much either but i do appreciate u checking up on me whenever i’m down and just generally being supportive and nice!!! also i’m in awe about how knowledgeable u are about idols in general ( i remember one of our first convos being about how sixteen came 2 be and the collapse of all of jype’s trainees and such ) and i love yien and nana’s supportive relationship too!! i can’t wait 2 see how they develop, and i hope 2 get closer 2 u in the future!! ; u ;

Hello, I really want to get this out of my mind, so I hope I do not bother you, if I bother you please ignore me, ok this will be long. I saw one of your previous answers, where you say that you feel different or with a weird mood, I've also been feeling weird, and I've been thinking about things that really stress me, I'm in a mood so pessimistic and depressing that I come crazy and terrible ideas about many things (part1)
one of those strange thoughts is this: LM and JDS have said (or so I’ve heard correct me if I’m wrong) that they do not want to talk much to avoid surprises about the plot of the following seasons … so I came this horrible thought. if they for example do not want to ruin the surprise about Klance by becoming a canon, Why do they talk so much about them? (part2)
why they give the fans so many hopes and make them believe that they will become canon if they want it to be a “surprise”?. then my pessimistic thoughts lead me to this, the surprise is not klance becoming canon, the surprise will be that another ship either All//ance, K and R or even worse She//ith is the one that will become canon. So if I’m not bothering you I’d appreciate it if you answered this, I’m sorry for bothering you with this stupidity (last part)
it’s alright bro, i gotchu. 
first, it’s true that lm and jds and known to be super secretive about the plot and upcoming events, and they have been vague about lance’s and keith’s relationship until this interview. there are instances were they were talked about them in a romantic context several times too but i’m just gonna focus on this video for now. there are two reasons that they have decided to openly talk about it like that:
1. they were approached specifically by the author of this article to hear out what they think about the “science behind shipping,” since they’re the executive producers of the show with the most popular ship on the internet.
2. they’ve realized it’s necessary to keep avoiding klance at this point. the klance fandom is huge, and no matter how much they try hide who the endgame will be or even sway us a little bit from it, the klance fandom only grows each time. they never expected klance to gain such a huge fanbase so quickly and for the fans to pick up on the hints that easily. it was as if they were still in shock and denial that their endgame surprise has been exposed, but there’s no use denying it at this point. they know we’ll forever believe in the ship, so since everything’s exposed, they don’t see why they can’t engage with the fans about them. if it is really not the endgame ship, they would’ve tried to do more damage control to not break the hopes and fail the expectations of the fans later, but they only spoke positively about klance in that video.
and don’t allow yourself to think that, annonie. i know that it’s really worrying because of how little keith and lance have interacted in the past few seasons, but that does not mean in any way that their relationship has regressed. season six especially was the very definition of intense, and there was barely any time for keith to interact with any of the other paladins besides shiro. keith, especially, was under a lot of pressure, and they were all stressed. but now since everything’s calmed down and keith’s finally back on the team, things will get better. have faith. 
(gonna put the rest under read more bc this has tuned way longer than expected)
and about other ships becoming canon, you can rule that idea out by the process of elimination.
keith/romelle and keith/allura are never gonna happen. you know why?
the endgame is between two main characters (”characters who have been present since the beginning″ aka the paladins). romelle isn’t
keith and allura have only ever interacted in what would seem like (but it isn’t) a romantic fashion in s2, and it was just bc of keith’s heritage. even though it’s kinda disappointing since i’d like to see more of their friendship, they’ve barely interacted with each other outside of missions. there’s no way they’re gonna develop romantic feelings for each other when neither has shown interest in the other.
literally
also dude keith’s clearly not straight. no matter how much you try to convince yourself otherwise, the man isn’t. one look at him is enough to know that.
biggest proof is allura, a gorgeous space princess who everybody swoons over, falling right into his arms and him not even blinking a goddamn eye. his indifferent expression still cackles me tbh.
also, it’s known that the endgame involves lance, so if it’s a ship that does not include lance, then nah it’s not happening.
not gonna even bother with why shiteihaha will never become canon in a bazillion realities because it’s ridiculously clear as to why to those who have at least 2 functional brain cells. don’t even let that idea cross your mind.
this leaves us with all//ance. tbh, it did have a chance of becoming canon up until s5. but dude, after watching s6, i was like “did they just really kill this ship.” all//ance is really cute and sweet, and i wouldn’t have minded it becoming canon since both allura and lance really care about each and i loooooooooove their friendship so goddamn much. but this is the thing. what allura and lance have is friendship. they both were really good friends up until the writers decided to bring lance’s crush back from the bottomless pits for drama’s sake. lance’s crush on allura is so valid man. he truly does like her. but the thing that killed the ship wasn’t this; it was the whole love triangle drama. allura fell in love with lotor and never requited lance’s feelings even when she knew about them, meaning she does not view lance that way, and it’s her right - she can like whoever she wants. the writers said that romance will happen naturally in the show. if allura would ever reciprocate lance’s feelings, she would’ve at least displayed some signs of that at this point. she got to know lance and see some of his greatest moments. she even got to experience what lance dying would feel like, yet she still didn’t develop any romantic feelings towards him. if feelings of loss and grieve didn’t make her realize how important lance is to her romantically, then that’s because there are no romantic feelings present in the first place. it would not make sense at all for her to develop feelings for him later on. she cares deeply about him as a friend, and romantic love is not some upgraded form of friendship love - it’s a totally different type of the same class, and that’s what she feels about him.
it would be utterly cruel and unfair for both if they end up together after the shit that has happened in s6. allura would never find a lotor in lance, and lance would always feel inferior if he gets with allura because he know’s he’s no lotor - that he isn’t who she wants (lance is much better than all the boys in the entire universe and whoever has him is literally the luckiest person ever but this is not the point so moving on). allura’s feelings for lance would not be genuine, which would make allura feel bad because she would never want to make lance feel like a rebound or a second choice. lance, on the other hand, really likes allura, and being the helplessly selfless person he is, would accept to be allura’s rebound while being fully aware of it and accepting his fate as a second choice which, god, would take a heavy fricking toll on his already bad self-esteem issues. seriously man, every time i think about them getting together after s6, their relationship is just full of heartbreak and hurt, and i don’t want either of them to feel like that because they don’t deserve it. even the showrunners admitted that them getting together right after would be a disservice to both of them. i fucking love them both and their friendship so much and i don’t want anything to ruin it.
i wanna also elaborate on another point. if you’ve noticed, allura and lance shared a couple scenes that paralleled klance’s but they’re slightly more romantically-coded (the scene might seem this way but since allura has 0 romantic interest in lance it ain’t, but anyway). the reason i think they included such parallels is to tell the audience that, “if you see those a///rance scenes as romantic, then those previous klance scene were meant to be romantic as well :)” as i mentioned before, the writers were quite surprised we have picked up on klance pretty quickly and early. since they might’ve thought we wouldn’t, they might’ve thought “something” was needed to hint at where they’re planning on taking klance’s relationship, and that “something” is all//ance. but unlike all/urance’s scenes (especially the dying lance moment which resembled the bonding moment) where the romantic interest is one-sided, the similar feelings in klance’s scenes are reciprocated by both parties (bonding!!!! moment!!!!).
now then, guess which ship we’re left with!!!!! yup! it’s klance. i could go on and on and on and on about how they!!! are!!! gonna!!! be!!! canon!!! but i’ve seriously spoken too much (and i cant feel my fingers anymore erfberk) and i don’t even know if you even have read it all the way to end bc ik i’m quite boring when i explain stuff ebjrvkebr but!!! seriously dude. just go rewatch s3. that’s all the confirmation you need of their budding romance. they have some of the most trope-y romantic scenes. and dude, i say all that but, whatever happens, i will forever believe that there’s no better ship in this show than klance. nothing will surpass it. 
edit: gonna just add the petty ask i sent voltron (that i knew they were never gonna answer but i had to send it nonetheless bc i needed to let the salt inside me out somehow lmao) because it’s succinct and summarizes what i said above lmao

Headcanon; Nephenee has PTSD
Tumblr media
Picture this, you live a simple life, out in the country with your brothers and sisters, growing up on the family farm, with aspirations of leaving home one day and becoming a royal knight. Nephenee used to dream that, all the while slugging through each day, making sure her chores were done, and to take the time to look after her many brothers and sisters, being the eldest, she has the most responsibilities.
She made frequent attempts, as she got older, to persuade her father and mother to let her leave home and enlist in the crimean army, but is promised she’ll be allowed to go after next harvest season, and the one after that, and the one after that. Nephenee favored the lance, frequently practicing in the family’s barn with a pitchfork against a bail of hay, or a wooden plank. Despite how good she is, her father constantly tells her ‘no’.
No you can’t go.
No, we need you for the harvest.
No, we need you to tend to the cattle.
No, you need to look after your siblings.
No, girls don’t fight.
No, we’re country folk, being a knight is for royals.
No, they’ll think you’re nobody because you bail hay instead of fighting wars.
This built up Nephenee’s insecurities about herself (and her deep loathing for her country accent and drawl), and only fueled her drive to one day pack her bags, leave Ohma, and head to Melior.
Finally, her chance came, in the form of Daein invading Crimea. Unguarded and unprepared for Ashnard’s onslaught, a conscription notice is put up throughout Crimea, ‘Any able bodied lad or anyone who can swing a sword, report to the nearest camp’.
Nephenee doesn’t even bother asking permission, she packs up her bags, takes her pitchfork, kisses each of her siblings good bye, and rushes off for the Ohma camp.
Her first day at camp, she’s made a laughingstock for showing up without armor or a proper weapon. The general denies her a chance to prove herself, unless she comes back with the proper equipment. Angered, she tries to tell the general where he can shove it, only for everyone to laugh at her once more, because of her accent and drawl.
Ashamed, Nephenee is about to call it quits and leave the camp, when she happens upon a familiar face. It’s Brom, everyone knows Brom, he tills the fields back in Ohma. But, what’s this? Brom’s coming with a pack on his back, a full suit of armor, and a spear in his hand. He meets Nephenee at the foot of the camp, and asks why she’s upset, to which Nephenee pours out all her frustrations on Brom, Brom then offers her the pack. Said he had planned on giving the armor in the pack to one of his daughters, but they were all too frightened to enlist, and as it happens, he’s carrying a spare lance.
Nephenee returns to the camp, insisting she’s someone else and trying to hide her accent. Now adorned in blue armor with gold accents, and carrying a spear rather than pitchfork, she demonstrates the skill she developed from years of impaling hay bails, and impresses the general, only to let it slip she was the girl the entire camp mocked before.
It’s because of this, she felt it best to hide her accent, hide who she was, and almost never take off her armor.
She’s a soldier now, she can’t go back to being a country girl.
Nephenee the soldier, is most decidedly NOT Nephenee the farm girl.
Nephenee the soldier talks like a soldier.
Nephenee the soldier does not speak in drawl.
Nephenee the soldier uses spears, not pitchforks.
And Nephenee the soldier is definitely not here to win someone’s heart, specially not one of the soldiers who tried to make a move on her while she was washing herself.
Probably should have mentioned she preferred women, and that she didn’t care for guys who peeped on her while she washed in the river. Yet another reason never to take her armor off or drop her spear.
Finally, after hasty training, it’s time for their first real deployment, their first battle, it’ll be along the Gallia Crimean border, they’re to reinforce the royal knights. The general berates all of them on the way there, saying ‘most of you will definitely die’, and ‘the only heroes are the royal knights, the rest of you are just here to take a sword to the gut for them’. Nephenee can’t help but notice the commanding officer keeps leering at her when he mentions who he thinks will die first.
But she’s ready, ready to prove herself, after all those years of begging papa to let her leave home, those years clawing for the opportunity to be a real knight of Crimea, all that humiliation she suffered in basic training, she’s finally going to prove everyone wrong!
She freezes.
The Daein army vastly outnumbers them, even with the Royal Knights present, they are easily overwhelmed, Nephenee can only watch in horror as people she trained with are mercilessly cut down left and right. Brom comes to her, tries to get her to snap out of it, Brom is as terrified as she is. Nephenee finally snaps back to reality when she sees a cavalier coming up behind Brom to strike him dead, gripping her lance, she lets out a scream and impales the horse and rider.
Her first kill, her first real kill. She grips that lance so tightly it might break, the screams and clashing of steel echo in her helmet, and she rushes in, killing each Daein soldier she finds. She stops, in her horror, seeing just who she is killing, these aren’t Royal Daein soldiers, they’re enlisted, like her, just young people from country villages. She pulls her spear out of the neck of a boy who looks no older than her brothers.
Is this really what she wanted?
Before she can think, she’s clocked upside the head by the butt of someone’s spear, and when she awakens, she’s in a prison cell.
She can hear Brom somewhere inside the prison, and the voice of another knight, she was sure she had heard that voice during the battle.
That night, Nephenee doesn’t sleep, all she can hear are the screams, and the clashing of steel, and every time she closes her eyes, she only ever sees the face of that Daein boy she killed.
Those images continue to haunt her, even after she’s rescued by Ike and co. But she’s still Nephenee the soldier, she has to be, she can’t go back to being the country girl now, the country girl never killed anybody!
Eventually, the war is over, Crimea won, Daein lost, it’s time to put away her armor and her lance, and go back to Ohma, tending to fields, cattle, and her siblings. 
Only, she can’t, every night, she can’t sleep, she goes to the barn and attacks hay bails with her pitchfork.
She can’t look at any of her siblings without seeing young Daein soldiers slain by her hand.
One night, she couldn’t go to sleep and put on her armor one more time, patrolling the village in case of a bandit attack. An attack that never came, only a group of villagers who were scared of the ‘crazy woman running around town with a spear’.
Maybe there’s nothing to worry about, maybe the fighting IS all over, but not for her.
At least, that’s what Nephenee thinks, until she wakes up, and finds her father has locked up her armor and weapon.
There is no war
there is no fight
Daein lost Crimea won, you’re a farmer again.
Only she’s not.
She breaks down, screaming about everything she saw, how the glamour of being a knight was tainted by the horrors she saw and inflicted. She can’t go back to being the farm girl, even if that’s what her papa wants.
Their hand is forced yet again, this time with the Crimean revolt. When word that Ludveck is inciting rebellions in the various villages throughout crimea, another conscription notice is passed, this time, encouraging young boys to take up arms against their Queen. Nephenee is horrified to see her brothers answer the call, her own siblings, going to join a revolt against a Queen that Nephenee had fought alongside years ago. It’s shocking to her that they would be so easily caught up in Ludveck’s propaganda, but that a bunch of children would so willingly join an insurrection!
She begs her papa to let her become a soldier again, that she’ll bring her brothers home. Heartbroken, but understanding that only Nephenee can knock sense into them, he unlocks the chest he put her armor and spear in. Nephenee rushes off to stop her brothers, then find Brom.
Along the way, Nephenee catches up to her brothers, armed with wood ‘armor’, and farming equipment. Nephenee goes to talk sense into them, but the boys start insulting her, getting mad that ‘Nephenee got to fight in the war but we had to do chores’. Nephenee continues to plead with them, this isn’t right, not only because Elincia isn’t the weakling Ludveck wants Crimea to think she is, but the fact that Nephenee’s brothers are only CHILDREN. 
Getting mad, one of the boys attempts to strike Nephenee with a pitchfork, which she blocks, then, on instinct (her soldier instincts taking over), she bashes him and knocks him over with her shield. She stares wide eyed, she just turned her weapon on a child, not just a child, her own brother, and now he’s on the ground, crying, with a bloody nose. Her other brothers start insulting her, but now, Nephenee won’t have any of this. She puts her foot down, and orders them to go home.
They refuse, and her other two brothers attack her too, because Nephenee isn’t their sister, she’s a monster who beat up her little brother. Nephenee easily pushes them all over and quickly breaks their will to join the insurrection. She makes them go home this time. They all say they hate her, to which Nephenee replies that that’s good, because she probably won’t be coming back.
Their sister is gone.
Nephenee the country girl is gone.
Only Nephenee the soldier remains.

heyyy! idk if u remember but about a week ago an anon, me😂, messaged you saying i was on chapter 8 of the curse of lethe. i just finished it and i absolutely loved it!! it took me a while to finish because of school but it was amazing! i was wondering if you can make another part where percy pops the question and him and annabeth and all their friends plan the wedding and they have twins, a boy and girl!! that would be adorable and ik you would write something amazing. thank you so much!!
Hey! Thank you so much for that comment it was so nice and I’m really stoked you liked the whole fic! I did the proposal fic before here, but here’s some twin-baby!fic for you (it kind of came out only loosely related to the CoL-verse, but hope it sorta fits anyway). I’ll have to think more on the wedding planning stuff–put a pin in that, and I’ll get back to it another day. And sorry this is all rushed and a bit of a late reply, I just got back to work after being on holiday and I’m also moving in a few weeks plus I have too many WIPs but yeah. Enjoy!
‘How about Felix?’ Percy says. 'Piper said it means “lucky.”’ He runs his hands over the curve of Annabeth’s belly, which is expanding rapidly by the day. Sometimes she thinks it’s a bit alarming, the rate at which her son or daughter is growing. If this is the size of her at three months, what is she going to look like at six, or even nine?
(Piper, with the smug superiority of someone who’s been there, done that, laughs and says it’s normal, but that’s easy for her to say. Annabeth swears Piper was nowhere near as big when she was carrying her son. Then again, that could just be a gift from Aphrodite.)
Percy loves it, though. He can’t seem to keep his hands of her burgeoning belly, whispering to it and trying on two dozen names a day for size. She’s never seen him this excited, not even when he and Tyson built that underwater theme park for Estelle.
'She could be Felicity,’ Annabeth counters.
Percy makes a face. 'Another girls’ name?’
'Well, you keep coming up with boys’ names. We don’t know that he’s a boy.’
'I think he is.’
Annabeth makes an impatient noise in the back of her throat. 'We ought to be prepared for both eventualities,’ she reminds him. 'At least until we get the ultrasound.’ She looks at her watch, then at the door to Will’s office. There’s a carving of Eileithyia below the name plate that says Dr Solace, OB-GYN. It’s certainly appropriate—you definitely want the goddess of childbirth on your side when you’re expecting—but it makes Annabeth a little uneasy. Eileithyia also delivers rebirthed souls, fresh from the Lethe, into new babies sometimes.
Annabeth’s had more than enough to do with the Curse of Lethe to last ten lifetimes.
'Asher?’ Percy suggests.
She gives him a look and pushes his hands off her stomach. 'Why are you so dead set on having a boy, anyway? What’s wrong with girls?’
Percy winces at her tone. 'Nothing. Girls are perfect. Girls are amazing. I love girls. I mean—’
'Honestly, Seaweed Brain …’
'I love this girl,’ he amends, pushing one loose curl behind her ear. 'It’s just …’ He bites his lip and mumbles something.
'What?’
'What if I screw up, with a girl? I mean, look at how much I messed up with you, and I put my mom through hell over the years, and—well, at least with a boy, I sorta know what to expect.’
'Oh, Percy.’ She swallows through the lump in her throat. She can’t deny that the last twenty years of loving him has been painful. Her heart’s pretty much been put through the wringer by now, what with crazy quests and deadly prophecies and vengeful monsters … but none of that was ever Percy’s fault, and they both know it.
Well, most of the time he knows it. But expecting a baby tends to bring up a lot of past insecurities. Annabeth herself can’t quite shake the nightmares about things going wrong, being unable to protect this tiny seed of life blossoming inside her, that old, persistent phobia of never being good enough.
But she knows that even with all the tears and heartache, she’d do it all over again as long as it means she gets to have Percy with her forever. And it will be the same, whatever their future with this new baby brings.
She links her hand through Percy’s so that the twin wedding bands on their fingers interlock—each with half an infinity symbol that forms the full thing when they connect. 'We’re going to be fine, Percy.’ She rests both their hands over her belly. ’They’re going to be fine, whichever one they are. Because whatever crap we messed up, you and I, we always picked up the pieces and put them back together.’
As if to back her up, their baby stirs inside her, pressing up against the wall of her abdomen. Percy’s eyes widen a little.
'See?’ she says. 'They agree with me.’ Gods, she loves the kid already.
'Smart kid.’ Percy bends forward and whispers conspiratorially, 'Never bet against your mom, okay?’
The door opens and Will’s head pops out. 'Annabeth, Percy—come on in.’
Percy holds her hand as Will sets up the ultrasound. His eyes are shining as he stares at the blobby shapes forming on the computer screen. Will runs the ultrasound transducer over her skin, and there it is—the spindly limbs, the round head of their child.
'Wow,’ Percy breathes. 'Oh wow.’
'Looking good,’ Will says. 'Now let’s see—’ He moves the transducer.
Annabeth’s heart nearly stops when another round head comes into view.
'What’s that?’ Percy demands. 'Is that … oh gods, something’s wrong, isn’ it? Why does he have two heads?’
Will laughs. 'Well, it’s unexpected, I’ll give you that. But no, nothing’s wrong.’ He removes the transducer and types a few commands into his ultrasound computer. The image zooms out. This time, the picture shows clearly two heads, but also two tiny bodies curled together, like the two halves of her infinity wedding band.
Twins.
'Congratulations,’ Will says, pointing just below the umbilical cord connecting her two—two—babies. One of them has an extra appendage there; the other doesn’t. 'A boy and a girl.’
Well. She said they should plan for either eventuality, but she’d kind of failed to plan for this possibility. The Fates still had a hidden card up their sleeves after all.
'I guess we’ll need both names after all,’ she says faintly.
Percy kisses her. 'I guess we do.’
