stray kids reaction to pegging for the first time:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
a/n: ignore any grammar/spelling mistakes, it isn't proofread and probably won't be😭
and as always, 18+, minors dni
Tumblr media
Chan:
Okay first let’s talk about how it was brought up,
you probably have to bring it up first
And his reaction? He’d act all blushy and embarrassed, surprised in an almost comical way
like “I-i mean i gu-guess, only if you wanted too tho...”
“I do want to, but also if your gonna watch that typa porn and don’t want me to see baby, delete the browser history”
lmao💀
He’d also say he wants take it really slow, and i mean really slow
talking about how the first time he just wants you to feel around him there, test out the waters but not penetrate him yet, give him a handjob or whatever as you do that
the next time he wants just your tongue,
the next your finger,
then two fingers,
pretty much working up in size slowly until you actually use a strap
he’s very cautious about the whole thing in the beginning, so worried and nervous that it's gonna hurt/he's not gonna enjoy it/you're not gonna enjoy it
but the second you’re actually doing it, ‘feeling around’ as he had called it, he’s already begging for more
yeah, you’d ended up doing all of the carefully week long process he’d set up, every little step, in a single night
The second your hands are on his hole, lube already warmed on your hand, fingers all slippery-
he’s begging for more, shoving his hips backwards in hopes of enticing you more
gripping the sheets, trying to reach for you, heavy breathing and flushed face,
baby boy wasn't expecting for it to feel this good
practically breathless as he pleads with you to just push your fingers inside him
and when you do, he’s going cross-eyed with pleasure, legs instinctually wrap around your hips, pushing you further into him
He can barely even believe how good it feels and how he hasn’t tried this sooner
don’t even get me started on how he reacts when you find his prostate
he’d probably cum just from that and then start begging you to actually fuck him, whining in a half-dazed mess about how he needs it, needs you, needs more
Felix:
All I can say,
Is that he’d pretend to be SO surprised, pretend he had no idea you were gonna bring this up,
Like he hadn’t been dropping hints and waiting for you to smarten up and decipher them all this time
Kinda gives it away though because when you bring it up he’s nodding eagerly, jumping on you immediately 
Because you made him wait so long for this
You whisper to him, reminding him that you still need to actually buy the strap
No you don’t.
Surprise, surprise, baby boy’s been ready for this for a long time 
He’s had one stashed under your bed in a pretty box with a perfect little red bow for practically forever
(Used for lonely nights on his own and dirty fantasies for a little angel such as himself)
Now he’s obviously used it on himself many times before this, experimenting and dreaming and wishing you’d walk in on him
But it’s nothing compared to when you do it
It feels so much better when you do it
He can’t even contain himself, practically shrieking in pleasure
I’d actually advise you to gag him at that point, he’d look pretty with a ball gag but the way his eyes roll back if you shove your underwear in his mouth is delectably sinful 
His nails claw into your back, legs hooking up and around your hips, already drooling from the first thrust
Is obsessed with missionary or the mating press, pretty much any position where you’re face to face and he can see you
Not that he’s doing much seeing with his eyes rolled back
I can’t stop thinking about if you’re wearing a necklace or something, with a charm or whatever tf it’s called
(searched it up and it’s a pendant)
He’d watch it, swaying in front of his face, swinging with every harsh thrust and then he can’t help himself but to lean up and wrap his pretty, soft lips around it
By the end he’s a mess, ruined beyond belief 
practically dumb as you try to clean him all up, shivering in sensitivity while also begging for more
baby's got an overstimulation kink 100% and that obvious translates to wanting you to fuck him absolutely dumb, making him cum over and over again until he has nothing left to give, a babbling dumb pretty mess<3
and afterwards,
you’re wondering if it was really worth it playing dumb for so long, pretending you didn’t notice his obvious hinting at everything
Hyunjin:
Baby boy just wants to be filled up, just wants to fucked hard and fast until he’s an incoherent mess
And then he wants you to take pictures of him all ruined 
wants you add more photos into the albums in your phone
add to all those compromising photos of hyunjin in a plethora of different positions, with different toys and ropes and you name it, add some more of him sucking on a strap or getting pounded
wants you to send him videos that he doesn't even remember filming, getting ruined with a little message under it saying
'you look so cute<3'
But it’s a fantasy
Only a fantasy
A fantasy that he only lets himself indulge in when he’s alone and pent-up and can’t help but pull out the lube and finger himself
Wishing it was your fingers, wishing it was bigger, wishing that it was more
That you were whispering in his ear, talking to him about how pretty he looked under you
Falling so deep that he can almost believe that’s it’s real
feeling so high off of how good it feels, unable to hold back the noises coming out high and needy as he shoves a pillow under his hips, humping it all the while he continues to scissor his long fingers in his ass
He so, so loud, calling your name, begging for you to go faster-harder
you’re out, you’re not around and no one else is he's allowed to be this loud
But, you are in fact not out, you came back because you forgot something or other and you walk in on this sight
Jesus fuck,
He makes a shocked sound, scared out of him mind when he finally sees you, freaking out and covering himself with the covers,
Beginning to cry quickly from the already emotionally-vulnerable moment he was having
You soothe him, rubbing a hand over his sweat-soaked back, hushing his tears,
And then pull out the strap you’d been specifically saving for this occasion 
He’s gonna go wild,
Seems to lose all composure the second you’re inside of him, his brain completely melting,
Not a single coherent thought in there for the time being
Just filthy little noises for more, for harder, for faster, he cannot get enough
And then when he’s almost about to come he starts to cry, long arms pulling you into him,
Burying his face into your throat, whimpering for you to please, please, please breed him in the neediest, littlest voice e v e r
Minho:
Lee Minho
The Lee Minho, wanting to be fucked like a little bitch?
Those where actually his exact words when you found the dildo he’d hidden in your closet,
It sure wasn’t yours, you think you’d know if it was🤨
So who’s could it be?
Other than the only other person living in your house, the only other one that would know to hide their shit in your closet, under the mountain of clothing there
But it was a cleaning day
So you decided to go through it
And found it
Not your’s, but it’s in your stuff
“Minho! Is this yours?”
Stares at it for a solid ten seconds, you can almost see the gears turning in his head, almost hear the bullshit excuse he’s coming up with and is gonna use in approximately 5 seconds if you don’t shut him up quickly
“Do you want me to fuck you?”
That renders him speechless
“….😦”, “no?🥴w-what? What even made you come up with that idea?🙄”
“😐...really?”
“Please do.”
“Thought you’d never ask.”
He’d try so hard to not be vocal, biting down on his lips, covering his mouth with his arm, clutching a pillow to his face
You remove each one, one after another until finally, finally you get to hear his cute noises
His little mewls and moans that follow right after
His quiet keens and grunted out groans
He loves hates it when you comment on them, cooing about how cute he sounds while you rub your hand tantalizingly over his inner thighs
In fact, just touching his thighs might be enough to make him cum alone
but that’s something to explore another day
You gotta be careful too
Because there is absolutely no way that he doesn’t scratch or bite
Starts off with his lips latched on your collarbone in an effort to not scream, his hands holding onto your shoulders for support, his body reacting with every rough thrust
And it ends off with his bunny teeth digging into your skin so hard that suddenly iron taste fills his mouth, his nails dragging down your back so hard that the flesh tears 
Aftercare consists of him sitting behind you, disinfecting and bandaging up the shallow cuts and scrapes down your back, neck and collarbone
But you don’t mind in the moment
Probably because you, like anyone, can’t help but he entranced by the man under you
Begging to be marked, to be fucked harder, to be yours
Only yours.
When you hit his prostate all he can let out is a strangled noise set between a keen and a cry, struggling to keep his grip on reality as you repeatedly ram into it him over and over,
“Good kitty.”
And then he’s cumming all over his chest, untouched 
Seungmin:
“No.”
That’s it when you ask him
Straight up no, end of conversation, that’s all, goodbye
“…Okay, can I ask why?”
Doesn’t answer you, refuses to talk about the subject, simply not talking when you ask him
But one day he gets curious, not in a horny way or anything, just wondering why you keep bringing it up
Queue pulling up a very nsfw website and searching up pegging
He scrolls through a couple of videos before settling on one
Through the entirety of the 12 minute video all he can imagine is himself as the squirming, moaning man being fucked
and you as the person standing above him, taunting him, asking him if he likes this, likes being fucked like this
The session ends with him in the shower, fingers exploring new places that he had no idea could bring him such pleasure
And as soon as he’s done he’s groaning, cursing himself for not agreeing earlier
Because how the hell is he supposed to bring this up to you?
He can’t find the words, find the way to tell you,
So he doesn’t use words
And you come home one night, calling out for your puppy to come on out, asking him where he is
The only reply you receive is a small “here!” from your bedroom
And fuck, good thing that boy is pretty because he does not need words
Dressed up in some pretty black lacy panties and a sheer robe that you’re pretty sure you bought awhile ago before it disappeared mysteriously 
He sits up against the headboard, watching you with lustful eyes 
And there, beside him on the bed is a dildo he ordered, the harness for it already attached
You look at it before back at him as he slides down the bed, right in front of you and lays back, spreading his legs
“Fuck me?”
And how can you say no?
He finds out fairly quickly that he REALLY loves it
And also REALLY loves doggy
Jisung:
He brought it up very, very soon
Like, probably on your first date he’s already telling you he likes to be fucked in the ass 
or simply just straight up asking you to do it, pulling out a strap from the bag he brought
Promising you it’s clean
And asking if you wanna go to the bathroom
Baby boy is shameless
He’s watched tons of porn, fantasized about being the whining, whimpering boys tied up with a hot dom fucking the absolute shit out of them until they’re incoherent
He’s asked other people to do it to him too
They’ve all said no☹️
And then he finds you,
You who is very open to the idea, at least halfway tempted by the bathroom idea and the other half thinking that there is so many classier ways to go about it
So you say no
And he pouts 
But when you bring home that night and praise and degrade him to the point of tears
Well, he supposes he can be patient
He asks you at least once every day, hoping for the time you finally say yes
But you smirk every time, pulling him close and making him shiver before whispering “no.” in his ear
You say it so many times that the one time he asks and you finally say yes it takes him a second to actually comprehend it
To comprehend that what came out of your mouth wasn’t a no
And when you finally do it you’re gonna bet that he’s loud
Like really fucking loud
Gotta-gag-him-or-the-neighbours-will-file-noise-complaints kinda loud
His voice gets so high too, hitting all them high notes🤭
He’d wanna be as close as physically possible, wrapping his arms around your neck, his legs hooked around your waist, pulling your entire body weight onto him
It makes it a lot harder for you to thrust into him but the way he has such easy access to your neck and ears
Whispering the nastiest shit in the entire history of the world
Boy’s got a mouth on him from all that dirty talk in porn
And he does it all while breathlessly nipping at your neck, squeaking when you hit that sensitive spot inside of him
He’d have the cutest fucked out face
Eyes crossed, drool dripping down his chin, tears spilling over his flushed cheeks
But you’d literally have to wrestle to let him to let go of you so you can see him
Little hiccups and gasps are all he can make out as you coo to him about how adorable he looks
All fucked out and ruined by you
If you wipe up his cum and feed it back to him you could probably get him to cum a second time completely untouched
Baby boy’s never gonna wanna do anything else ever again, 
Completely cock drunk and completely obsessed
Changbin:
He seems like he’d bring it up,
Extremely shy all the while, muttering something under his breath that you can’t hear
“Pardon baby, what’d you say?
Poor binnie, he’s be all blushy and nervous
*clears his throat* “u-um, could you maybe…peg me?”
HES SO FUCKING ADORABLE😭😭
Anyway,
You’d obviously agree because why would you actually ever say no?
You’d quickly order all the things you’d need and the day they arrive he just happened to not be home
Leaving you the perfect chance to surprise your baby
He’d come in, all tired from the gym and needy, just wanting to let you take care of him
He comes in and all the lights are off, he furrows his brows, setting his bag down and calling out your name about to start flicking the lights on,
When he sees candlelight coming from down the hall
He follows it am the way to the bedroom where the entire room is lit by candles,
And then there you are, lying on the bed, looking up at him
“Welcome home binnie,”
He's confused but you pull him into a kiss and he can’t seem to think of anything other than you as your fingers skim over his body, feeling over the bulge in his pants, your tongue slipping into his mouth
He’s panting by the time you pull away
“I gotta little gift for you…well maybe not so little.”
He practically gapes as you pull it from out of a box he failed to miss on the bed behind you
You rub his hand soothingly, gauging his reaction “if you don’t want to do it anymore that’s fine, you can always chan-“
“-I want it.”
You smile and spin your positions so now he’s the one with the bed behind him
And then you shove him down
“Just tell me if you ever wanna stop baby, I won’t be mad, I promise.”
Fuck him hard and rough
Manhandle him, switching his positions every so often,
He obviously likes missionary and you get the perfect view of his eyes rolling back
Doggy is fun, he gets so much more vocal because of how much deeper you can hit inside of him, but you don’t get to see him
I recommend next time placing him in front of a mirror, not only so you can see how pretty he looks when he’s drooling but also so he can too
gets more ruined from seeing how own reflection
Riding is one of your favourites, watching the poor thing moan, trying to go faster, rougher, hit that one place inside of him but he just needs you to do it
Letting him beg and try and get oh-so desperate before he starts to cry, pleading for you to just fuck him
FUCKING HIM AGAISNT THE WALL
HDJDDGJSKDHHD
MANHANDLING HIM UP AGAINST IT, MAKING HIM FEEL SO SMALL AND BLUSH
BEFORE ABSOLUTELY RUINING HIM
*ahem*
Sorry, that was a bit overboard
I also have a fantasy abt pegging him at the gym but that’s also conversation for another time
IN:
Okay, but I really wanna corrupt him…
Innocent little innie, you have to teach him everything, show him how to make you feel good
Every time you introduce something new to him he’s like “😧people do that??”
And so one day when you pull out a strap, asking him if you can peg him,
well baby boy is completely clueless
But he remembers how good you’ve made him feel, pleasure he didn’t even know the human body was capable of feeling
He agrees with little to no convincing 
Ready for whatever you have in plan for him, ready to be swallowed whole by all that is you and everything you make him feel
Sweet doe eyes looking up at you, glassy with sensitivity, wide with wanting
He’d never imagine that he could feel so good filled up
Never thought your fingers scissoring inside him, stretching him open and preparing him for your strap could feel so mind-achingly good
Enough to make his glossy eyes fall shut, for his hands to grip onto the fabric of your shirt, mouth open with small breathy whines filling the room
God, when you press your fingers against his prostate he swears he can see stars bursting across his vision
He can barely think, barely let out the keen that reverberates through his throat, barely breathe
It feels so, so good and he can feel himself melting
But that’s just with your fingers
Once you’ve deemed him prepared enough you pull out, smirk curling at your lips at the whimper he lets out in protest
That quickly shifts into a gasp when you push into him
Goodness fuck, sweet little innie, voice small and shaking,
Hoarse and cracking
“…please~”
Switching positions so he sits in your lap while you lean against the headboard of the bed
Watching his little pants and flushed cheeks,
Drool leaking from the corner of his mouth as he tries his very best not to go completely and utterly insane with how good it feels,
And how much deeper it goes in this new position
Every little shift and movement pressing the head against that sensitive spot inside of him
He’s so needy and desperate he rides you hard and fast, whining when even then it’s not enough, clinging to you like a lifeline
You watch with a bated breath, eyeing each time he moves up, 
Unable to tear your attention yo where he teases you and himself, pulling up so just the tip is inside of him before sinking down just as quick, moaning all the while he’s stretched out again, the entire length sliding inside him with ease
Gasping in frustration as his thighs begin to burn and cramp from exertion
Whining as he paws at you, burying his face into your neck, muttering with a shaky whisper to please fuck him
Your hands tease over his body, ghosting over his hips, feeling him quiver on top of you
Before you finally give in
He practically screams when you flip him over again, starting up a hammering pace that he can barely keep up with
All he can do is mewl and whimper, clutching the sheets and letting his eyes roll into the back of his head
“Good baby, doing so good, just keep doing that.”
That’s his breaking point
Looking at him all fucked out and adorable
You can only groan and kiss his messy lips, red from being bitten, shiny with saliva
And think this was all because of you

suggestive + fluff
swimming with snow would entail quite a number of things:
he’s a touchy-feely sort of person. very intelligent when manoeuvring up and around you, allowing him just enough space to invade yours. he’s sneaky about it too - a palm resting against your belly (oddly warm and soft in its receive when it rubs affectionately against you), fingers that tickle at your sides, arms that tuck against you like vices rather than just tendons. when you smile at it, bring it up, tell him to quit it, he’s only likely to be more encouraged.
the first to offer you a towel to wrap yourself up when you get the chance. he’ll be all nonchalant about it too, a swipe of a glance and his hand extended bearing the soft material, letting out a little “here you go,” when really, he’s rebounding against every move in his head like chess. wondering whether you think he’s a fool, whether the towel would catch fire and burn, whether you would even appreciate the sentiment. but as soon as you’re curving into that smile you always give him, his worries are scattered. but, wait, is that a sneaky hand that nests against your shoulder?
he likes to hang back and observe you like he is absent within the moment. expect him to sit behind you whilst you converse with the others that have joined you, resting his cheek against the back of you, kissing the soft, wet flesh occasionally. a bit of a starer too - takes little shame in setting his eyes on you. your lips? he’s already flitting down towards them with more than a breath. your eyes? he has yet to break contact. your neck? beware, he’s beginning to grow antsy without kissing it till the skin starts to fester.
he’d be so annoying with this but loved to loop his finger through your bathing suit and stretch it out, before letting it band and snap against your skin. nothing too much to hurt, but enough for you to to squeal at. he likes to believe that he does it for the sole purpose of aggravating you, but really, he enjoys the little noises you let up too. the way you whine at him, tell him to stop because it hurts so much (it doesn’t, the effect of it is what you desire), the little frown that pulls at your face as your eyes pool with faux anger. a droll lick of fire he finds comical above all things else. when he’s got you on tenterhooks, almost avoiding him out of luck, to get out of his grasp, he’ll pull you back into his chest and kiss his way into an apology. really, it’s all too easy. the heat of the sun working your front as he works the string of your swim top between two lousy fingers - and there’s nothing but the scrape of sand to keep him quite as cool.
does this harrowing little move where whenever he gets out of the water, he’ll inch his way towards you slowly when you’re least on your guard. when he’s close, he’ll clinch his palms around your ankles and pull. pull, not with decency, but instead, he’ll play the dirty game, where he uses all of his strength and get you under him in a swipe. likes it when you giggle, he says, or squeal when his arm swipes against your own and you can see just how much bigger he is in comparison to you (his biceps come as hulking pieces of meat to your eye, curved and powerful) or if his thighs unintentionally come forward to trap your own in between them, digging into the sand as his dog tags coldly dangle against your neck with a blurring ache. no need to quieten, no one is watching.
refuses to divulge into this particular secret but loves kissing you when you’ve both been deep into the water, where your kisses are practically marred with the salty brine of the waves. when he kisses, its like he’s been starved of that, too. all hungry, consuming, when his lips work against yours in quick succession, marking them with little bruises where he doesn’t see it fit to stop. but when you’ve both been swimming? salt enters the equation. a bitter tinge in your mouth and he’s keening for the taste of the bitter mineral slotted against your mouth. it’s like something primal to him and a bitter thing, that he will take to the grave.

first gen | meeting shin's closest friends and gang members
⿻ mini series ft. you dating shinichiro and whatever chaos that comes from that !! ✕ fluff !! ♡ series m.list
Tumblr media
shinichiro wanted to keep you like a secret. 
first from his family, until you convinced him after eight months it was almost a crime to have not met the people dearest to him. then from his friends, the silly delinquents who he deemed too slimy to be associated with you (and ignored the way you’d point out that he is friends with them, which would make him slimy by extension). 
truthfully, he wanted to keep you as far away from the gang as possible - the thought of something happening to you because of his association with it was almost too much to bear. and he knows his dear friends would tease the everloving shit out of him if they knew he had a partner. he really didn’t know if his heart could take it. 
he lasted ten months without them finding out. 
and he didn’t even realize they found out when they did!! shinichiro and you just happened to be out on a date one afternoon, swinging your hands between yourselves and doing all that mushy-gushy-lovey-dovey bullshit that would make any average bystander gag, at the same time wakasa, benkei, and takeomi happened to be walking around the shopping district aimlessly. 
the three spot their captain walking through the crowd, and it’s almost comical the way they begin to call out to him only to stop when they see him holding hands with a stranger. 
and like any normal group of friends, they decide the best way to get more information is to stalk the two of you. 
shinichiro, for the better part of two hours, doesn’t notice the strange group of three men who seem to follow each turn and stop and shop you enter, but when you see that mop of blonde and purple hair one too many times for it to be considered a coincidence, you snap. 
“can we help you guys with something?” you ask, eyebrow raised as you turn to face the three gentlemen trying very hard to make themselves appear smaller than they are under your gaze. 
shinichiro, ever oblivious, turns to see who you could possibly be talking to like that, and he goes through many emotions at who it is. confusion. realization. shock. horror. 
you don’t notice this, too busy ridiculing his precious members to see the way his panicked expression meets his friends eyes. “well?” you prompt, hands on your hips. 
the man with a scar going down his eye is first to speak, looking at your boyfriend instead of you, “i didn’t know you had it in ya, shin.” 
your pointed look moves from the three in front of you to the aforementioned male, eyebrows raising for an explanation. 
he looks like a fish out of water, gaping with his mouth opening and closing as he tries to come up with anything to say, before finally settling with, “i have never seen these men in my life.” 
the three sputter at this, unlit cigarette almost falling out of the man with the scars mouth at the claim. 
“dude, we’re your friends.” the shorter of the three clicks his tongue, and despite this, shinichiro just shakes his head, mouthing ‘i think they’re crazy’ to you when your eyebrows seem to raise further. 
the tallest claps a hand on shinichiro’s shoulder, shaking him slightly when he visibly grimaces at the contact, “oh come on, shin, don’t tell me you’re embarrassed of us.” then like the gentleman he is, offers you his hand, “arashi keizo, but these idiots call me benkei.” 
you take his hand and he shakes it with a gentleness that has you surprised coming from a man of his size. 
and then he’s being pulled away by the man with the scar, holding out his hand with a grin that has the cigarette between his teeth pointing upwards, “akashi takeomi.” he’s quick to grab your hand and shake it, then wrap an arm around shinichiro’s shoulders, who can only stare in silence at the audacity that his members have. 
the last of the three gives you a lazy grin, taking your hand and kissing the top of your knuckles with a wink, “imaushi wakasa. what’s a pretty thing like you doin’ with our leader here?” 
“um . . ., ” any remaining confrontation from your end has completely dissipated at the surrealness of the situation, looking between the three then your boyfriend, “we’re on a date?” 
“a date?” takeomi barks out a laugh, holding his stomach and leaning forward, only to be shoved away when the motion has shinichiro moving as well. he wipes away a fake tear, remnants of a giggle still passing his lips as he asks, “no really, what’s goin’ on here?”
it is honestly astounding that no one believes shinichiro has the capability to acquire a significant other. you feel offended for him, arms crossing over your chest with a glare, “what’s that supposed to mean?” 
“have you met shin?” wakasa leans against a nearby wall, popping a dango stick into his mouth, “can’t believe this fuckin' dude managed to-” 
you don’t even get the chance to share your name when shinichiro clears his throat and grabs you by the upper arm, effectively stopping wakasa from continuing to speak and pulling you away from the group with no regards to the protests that fall from takeomi’s lips. neither of you speak until you’re almost three blocks away. 
“i’m sorry.” shinichiro settles for, grimacing when you pull your arm from his grasp. 
it falters when your fingers tangle with his instead, and falls completely when you laugh. 
“they’re in your gang?” you ask, despite already being able to guess the answer. 
“my most trusted colleagues.” his shoulders drop, as if speaking it outloud made him realize maybe he’s made a grave mistake in putting all his faith in those three.
“they’re nice,” you hum out, leaning into his side, “i’m sure even nicer when they’re not teasing you.” 
he almost groans, “that’s, like, never.”
another laugh, and shinichiro relishes in the sound, “relentless, are they?” 
“worse than mikey."

"I- I told you, I don't do one-night stands," he desperately argued.
"I told you I did, and you still agreed," you tilted your head.
He sighed.
"Calm down baby girl-"
"Could you please stop calling me that?!" he whispered-yelled, looking around to make sure no one heard you.
"Why?" You were still looking through the bookstands.
"I don't like nicknames as it is, especially not that one,"
"Oh," you stopped, "I wasn't replacing your name with anything, Ethan, I'm just pointing out one of your many characteristics," you turned to him, eyes finally on him.
He readjusted his backpack nervously, avoiding the powerful gaze.
"What? You're seriously gonna stand here and straight-up lie to yourself and say you're not baby girl?"
He adorably blushed from the apple to his cheeks, to his ears, reaching all the way down to his neck, "That's-" he tried to snap out of it, "That's not the point,"
"You were the one who brought it up," you shrugged resuming your search, "Besides, you can barely call that a one-night stand,"
"What would you call it then?"
"A... consensual exchange of pleasure between two very stressed students,"
"That's a very long way of saying you-" he clenched his jaw.
"I... what? Sucked you off? You're right, although I gotta thank you for that, I'm so much better and mouthfuls now," you winked at him, "Great stamina by the way," you hit his shoulder.
"Listen," he placed himself in front of you, "I know you don't give a shit, but I do,"
You took a deep breath.
"It was a big deal to me,"
You couldn't help but slightly cringe, but gave him a chance anyway, he looked so desperate you almost felt bad for him, "I ask again, why?"
"Because," he cleared his throat, "It was the first time that's ever happened to me," he confessed, his tone barely above a whisper.
You were taken aback, "Bullshit!"
Someone from a few rows back let out a loud 'Shh'
He apologized before looking back at you with comical confusion, "What do you mean bullshit?"
"It means you're a fucking liar,"
"Why would I lie about that?"
"I- I-" you shook your head, "I don't know, but I just- I don't believe you,"
"I don't know whether to feel flattered or offended," he let out.
"There's just no damn way you're a virgin,"
"What-" he scratched his head, "What makes you say that?" he put his hand in his pockets while pursing his lips.
"Uh," you were still shocked, "Your- your face, for one," you gestured, "Puppy eyes, fleshy lips," you kept thinking, "For fucks sake, Ethan, you're a swimmer!" you kept moving your hands, "I've seen you in a fucking speedo, water dripping, you're a 6 foot something muscular eye candy!" you laughed in disbelief, "You're sweet, you're super freakishly smart, you've read, Jane Austen, Agatha Christi, and Leigh fucking Bardugo; sure, you're Starwars fan and you know way too much about Mike Flanagan, but come on! Anyone and I really mean, anyone would gladly overlook that," you tried to recover your breath, "So yeah, I'm sorry for not beliving you about being a virgin,"
He furrowed his brows, "When did you see me in my speedo?"
"That's the part you're focused on after I ranted about how great of a fucking catch you are?" You widened your eyes, "You're unbelievable, I meant that both as a good and a bad thing," you pushed him out of your way, "And to answer your question, I walked a friend who's on the female swim team to her practice yesterday, I'm not a fucking stalker for Christ's sake," you clarified, "And the rest of information you told me yourself,"
You referred to two nights ago when Chad threw his birthday party, he actually introduced the two of you that same night, he thought complaining about schoolwork was enough to make a good match.
You sat on top of one of the tables, "Look, I'm sorry for... seducing you if you will, and then leaving without a trace," you couldn't completely hide the fakness.
He looked down, "Thank you, for the apology and confidence boost,"
You chuckled, "I meant all of it,"
He nodded trying to hide his very strong flush.
You scanned the boy infront of you, a part of you didn't wish to see him after the 'incident' let alone talk to him, but if you had to be honest with yourself, you were more than glad to have him chasing you around campus all day trying to find even a speck of courage to walk up to you. There was a slight moment of excitment in your eyes, as you noticed he was struggling with himself wether to stay or not, he made his choice by resignating to place his bag on the table next to the one you chose, you knew what he was doing, trying to make it seem as he planned all along to work here and 'conincidentally' run into you. You made your choice as well, by getting up and snatching the notebook out of his hands.
"Obviously you have fucking good hand-writing," you scoffed leafing through it, "And is that-" your eyes squinted, "Fountain pen?"
"Y-yeah," he aswered.
"Of course it is," you pulled out a chair to continue your observation in a more comfortably postition.
Ethan didn't know you that well, but he sure as hell wasn't going to try and take something from you, so he just proceeded to grab another set of things for another homework. You on the other hand, wasted no time in reaching the very end of the pages, where the good stuff was, the free space whre everyone draws terrible sketches, writes pending tasks or random thoughts in any way shape or form; and yet it seemed he didn't have anything, just purely white paper. You rolled your eyes, there had to be more to him, something to make him more interesting that the perfect and sweet guy you gave a blowie to, something that could justify why you wanted to fuck him so badly right now, the urge had to be justified with something else than the cutest nerd you'd ever seen, but he didn't seem to help you.
In a breef moment of boredom, you wondered about his intentions, more specifically why he wanted to talk to you in te first place, what would he win out of an apology or simply a glimpse of regret? Did he regret it? Maybe. Perhaps he didn't regret what happened (clearly not by the way he was moaning so loud you were sure the entire crowd heard him), perhaps he just regreted there was no chance it could happen again.
"Ethan," you said softly, eyes filled with intention, feline almost.
"What?" he turned to you.
"I know you're not here to make me feel bad," you reached the cover of his book and slowly closed it, purposely making your bodies closer, to which you heard his breath hitched, "Would you like to walk me back to my apartment?"
He gulped, "Aren't- aren't your roommates there?"
"On a friday night?" You asked rhetorically, "What a silly question for such a smart little brain,"
.
.
.
Lmk if I should do a part two, I just don't know how to continue it so if you have any ideas pls send them it would really help a lot

More Reading Thoughts: In the House of Tom Bombadil
BEHOLD! ANOTHER CHAPTER! We’re making it at a magnificent clip nowadays
Eyyyy it’s Goldberry!
Frodo surprising himself with the poem that springs out of his mouth when he sees Goldberry will never not be hilarious and adorable
It does beg the question of where the heck that came from. Does Goldberry just have that effect on people? Does it have serving to do with Elf magic, like she implies? Does Frodo just have that accidental rizz?? Who knows!
Frodo: “Who is Tom Bombadil?” Goldberry: “Well, he is, of course, silly :-D”
Mighty convenient that Tom has exactly four beds for the four travelers
They DO take a bath before supper >8-D (Don’t mind me, just a comic idea percolating in my head. Some of you know what I’m talking about.)
Tom was waiting for them. Tom was waiting for them. He’d heard word that the hobbits were coming. He wasn’t actively trying to find them, but he wasn’t surprised when he did. I don’t know why that enchants me so much.
Merry and Pippin like “AAAHH NO DON’T TALK ABOUT THE WILLOW TREE” is simultaneously hilarious and heartbreaking depending on how you look at it
Heeheehee nightmare time
Frodo has a dream about Gandalf and Black Riders. Hmm, pity. You’d think he’d have a nightmare about water, given his near-drowning and the way his parents died…but I guess this is important for foreshadowing purposes.
Pippin has a dream about being inside the tree. He feels surrounded and afraid. Understandable.
MERRY has the dream about water and drowning?? Shut up!! If I were him, I’d be way more disturbed that a freaking tree was IN MY HEAD and threatening to kill me!!
“Sam slept through the night in deep content, if logs are contented.” Hilarious 🤣
Much apologies to my girlies on the server who headcanon the hobbits with phobias corresponding to the four elements; sadly, Tolkien is not on the same page as us this time.
Tom: “You’d better not be late to breakfast, or you’ll get nothing but grass and water!”
See, Frodo gets it. Rainy days are awesome. They are beautiful and force you to slow down and admire the world.
“The trees were here before you, mind, and they don’t much care for your shenanigans!”
Ooh, so the Barrow-wights are the ghosts of dead kings that the Nazgul woke up. Fascinating.
Nothing makes the world of Middle Earth feel old and rich in history more than Tom’s stories
Goldberry’s hand being partly translucent is such a vibe
WAIT. Tom and Goldberry. Differences. Tall and short. Blonde and brown. One graceful and ethereal, the other down to earth and joyful. Working together, not in competition. Frodo and Sam. SHUT UP GUYS I’VE CRACKED THE CODE—
Tom is friends with Farmer Maggot!!
FARMER MAGGOT HAS SPOKEN TO GILDOR
Dang where’s my fantasy epic about Farmer Maggot you guys
And this is the part where Tom puts the Ring on his finger and doesn’t disappear, and if they’d ever included this in the movies it would’ve destroyed the gravity and mystique of the Ring altogether
Merry having to bite back a yell like “HOLY CRAP FRODO’S GONE” 🤣
WAIT I CAN MAKE THAT ANGSTY TOO aw heck the brainrot is setting in
“Frodo laughed (trying to feel pleased)…” Relatable, Frodo, relatable
Tom: “And remember, DON’T GO NEAR THE BARROW-DOWNS!” Meanwhile, the hobbits, in the very next chapter:

Tunnel Vision ~ (Konig x Fem!Reader)
Tumblr media
Drinks and Drops ~ Part 2 of the Tunnel Vision series
Summary: You haven't run into the tall, silent König very often during your time in Taskforce 141, so when he starts showing up around every corner, you cant decide if it's for the better or worse.
(lots of fluff, no use of "y/n", slowburn, smut later on ;D)
I glance down at my phone, reading 8:07, as I stand in front of the pub. A droplet of rain falls onto my screen and I hastily wipe it on my jeans as another cold drop hits my neck. I dodge under the awning and open the door, chilly air and the smell of beer wafting over me. I almost laugh at how noticeable the group I’m joining is, from Ghost’s “more casual” mask to the tall figure sitting with its back to me… huh. I pause, as Ghost is almost always the tallest amongst our party. Clarity is delivered swiftly as the figure notices Ghost’s gaze and turns to look at me. My stomach seems to churn to a freezing halt. What I had taken to be a head hidden in shadow is actually a black mask, and suddenly the unusual height makes sense. I catch Soap’s eager eyes and force myself not to turn and leave. I make a beeline to the chair Soap has saved for me at his side, avoiding the steadfast blue eyes that follow my path. Unfortunately, my seat is sandwiched between Soap and König, though König is sitting more closely to Horangi, leaving a wide gap around the table. My stomach sinks and I think back to our last interaction, wondering if his memory of it is just as vivid.
“Optics!” Soap greets, and my stomach unfreezes slightly. “Was worried you’d bailed after all.” he grins and scoots over so I can pull out the chair and sink into it. 
“You have no faith in me,” I scoff, my voice coming out more quietly than I’d intended. König’s stare makes me shrink back into my chair. As I look up, I see Ghost staring intently at me, too. I raise an eyebrow at him and his eyes narrow beneath his balaclava, which he refuses to take off, even off duty. 
“You’ve given us enough reason to worry, hermit,” Ghost laughs gruffly. I purse my lips at the nickname and try very hard not to glance at König, who has been characteristically silent. “Have you met Horangi?” Ghost gestures at the man across from me, who grins and waves a little. He’s wearing his dark glasses, but his nose and mouth are exposed. I shake my head. 
“We’ve never talked,” I say, and Horangi nods. 
“You’re the one who keeps making me restock the earl gray tea,” he says, with a hint of a smirk. I grin back and raise my eyebrows. “What, you thought you were the only tea drinker?” He leans forward teasingly and takes a sip from his beer. I laugh and feel the ice in my limbs start to soften, still pointedly avoiding König’s eyes.  
“They drink black coffee like maniacs,” I gesture to Soap, Ghost, and Roach, who all scoff in indignation. Roach mumbles something about not drinking ‘flower water’ and the table laughs. 
“Oh, and this is König,” Horangi adds, and gestures to the man sitting to his left. I finally allow myself to turn my head and glance at him. His massive stature makes him look almost comical situated on the barstool. He looks only slightly different than usual, wearing a tight black t-shirt with some band Iogo I’ve never seen and too-tight khaki pants. He, too, adorned his mask over street clothes. I wonder briefly what outsiders at the bar assume of a man big enough to be a rhino with a black shirt over his head. I remember suddenly that I’m being introduced and I nod at him. He inclines his head slightly back. 
“We’ve met,” he mutters, to my surprise. I nod again, unsure what to say. I look back to my right, where Ghost is still eyeing me curiously. I shoot him a ‘stop-that’ look, and turn my head back. “So, why do they call you Optics?” Horangi fills the strained silence that follows König’s words. I open my mouth to respond, but Soap beats me to it. 
“She’s practically nocturnal, this one,” he snorts and nudges me hard in the side. “When we first met, we never saw her out of those night vision goggles. So, Optics.” 
“I suggested ‘vampire’, but I was shot down,” Roach grumbles with a grin, drawing a laugh from around the table. I turn my head quickly to give him an offended stare. 
“Tell me you’re joking,” I try not to smile, my mouth still hanging open. 
“He’s not.” I can hear Ghost’s smirk through his mask and I stare around at them accusingly. “Oh, don’t look so injured, we changed it, didn’t we?” 
“Yeah, you can’t complain,” Roach pointed at me sternly. “You're not the one called Roach.” he smacks the table and Horangi chuckles. The air now feels so full of laughter that I can almost forget my earlier embarrassment. 
“I feel lucky now,” Horangi laughs, gesturing to himself and König. 
“What does Horangi mean? Is it just a nickname?” I ask, taking a sip of the beer Soap ordered in my absence. 
“It means ‘tiger’ in Korean,” he responds. “König is ‘king’, right?’ He prompts his friend, who nods in response. “I call him ‘silent but deadly’,” he adds, rousing a hearty laugh from everyone else around the table. König shoots him a harassed look, but his shoulders shake slightly as well. A smile pulls at my lips. 
Halfway through my glass of beer, the awkwardness and regret of before melts, eased by Soap’s stream of banter and the cold sensation of drink spreading through me. The only thing unchanged is the anxious shiver that shoots through me when König’s eyes find mine. Though his presence no longer unnerves me, there is some thrill in his company that dries my mouth and quickens my pulse. He doesn’t glance my way often, and speaks even less, but the mere proximity is enough to daunt me. At this distance I notice how unusually long his eyelashes are, how his shirt expands with every breath, how his mask flutters when he laughs. These observations humanize him slightly, making him seem less like a mountain, and more like a man unreadable under his mask. He nearly catches my gaze once and I quickly look away to drain the rest of my glass. 
In the course of the next hour, empty glasses began filling the table and König’s chair closes the gap, almost unnoticeably moving closer to my chair throughout the night. I hoped tonight gave him somewhat of a better impression, anxious to wipe away our first encounter. When my phone reads 9:48, Ghost is the first to break apart the gathering, standing after finishing his fourth drink. 
“You lot keep me out too late,” he accuses, giving us all a stern look. 
“Aw, Ghost,” Soap groans and lets his head fall back dramatically. “It doesn’t say anywhere that Lieutenants can’t have fun.” He tries to coax Ghost back to the table. 
“I think you’ll find it does,” he responds, gruffly. “Unless you want to deal with me at 7 am after a short night?” Soap frowns, but seems to decide his Lieutenant’s logic is sound enough. 
“Fine, fine,” He joins Ghost, pushing in his chair with a scrape, but sways a little. The rest of the group seem to collectively agree, however grudgingly, and begin departing. I follow my team through the front door, but stop dead at the thick wall of rain enclosing the awning. Soap, Ghost and Roach seem to find no issue with the downpour and walk straight into the storm. 
“We’re running for it!” Roach calls over his shoulder, and they take off into the rain, almost immediately made invisible in the sheet of water. I stand alone for a moment, feeling rather stupid for walking from base without checking the weather beforehand. I glance down regretfully at my white tank top and curse under my breath. Should I just wait it out…? 
“Am I the only one who drove?” a figure appears at my shoulder. I turn to look at Horangi, who watches the rest of my team depart with great amusement. 
“The only one with sense, apparently,” I reply with a bitter grin. Horangi smiles back at me. 
“See you around, Optics,” and he, too, ducks into the rain. I watch his figure grow fainter, bowing into a black car down the street. I sigh and stare fiercely at the rain like it might vanish at my glare. I nearly jump when the last member of our group joins me beneath the awning.
“Did you walk?” König asks, his low voice barely audible over the drum of raindrops. I chance a glimpse up at him. He’s looking down at me from the corner of his eye.
“Yeah,” I respond, feeling small and ridiculous standing beside him. “Stupid, huh?” He shakes his head. 
“No, not if you bring an umbrella,” He responds and, like magic, produces one gripped in his closed left hand. Without elaboration, he steps out from under the shade and opens it, holding it awkwardly to his right, making space for another person beneath. I stare for a moment at the gesture, then remember to move my feet and join him beneath the umbrella. It’s smaller than I would’ve liked. My head is nearly bumping into his bicep as we begin to walk, though he seems to be treading carefully to avoid collisions. “You don’t like the rain?” he guesses quietly, stopping before we cross the street.
“Normally, I would. But… um,” I glance back up into his eyes, which appear bemused. “You know, white shirt, water…” I trail off, letting him put the pieces together. Immediately he nods with understanding and quickly looks away. I can’t tell if this is sudden shyness or merely caution before crossing the street as he peers over my head for cars. When he decides it’s safe for us to cross, he mutters something faintly and rests a large hand on the small of my back to make sure I keep pace. I hardly notice when we reach the other side for all I can feel is his warm hand pressing into me. I feel almost unsteady when he abruptly pulls away, the absence of his touch leaving the spot cold. The rest of our walk to base is silent, though it doesn’t feel quite as unpleasant as before. He glances down at me every once in a while, making sure the umbrella covers my frame, walking deliberately to accommodate my short stride. 
“You’ve helped me out twice now,” I mutter as we near the front doors, feeling an obligation to say something, but at a loss for anything substantial. He looks surprised. 
“It’s no problem,” he says mildly. 
“Well, anyway, thank you,” I respond and crane my neck to meet his eyes.
“Any time,” he murmurs, his voice growing oddly soft. Something about walking away feels wrong, so I remain rooted to the spot, continuing to stare up into his mask. After a questionably long silence, I bid him a quiet goodnight and step through the double doors, feeling like I missed something important.

Finally did a part 2 of this cuz college is tearing me apart.
Kith kith thank you kith kith kith
TW for brief mentions of torture, murder, and subtle themes of trafficking.
“Why did you hide your scales??”
“I didn’t want you all to find out.”
“Why didn’t you want us to find out??”
“Due to my species secluded nature and the value people put on as a rare species, it’s taught to us as young guppies to never reveal what we truly are.”
“Why am I your favorite??”
“Sailors and pirates spread tales that we’re evil and monstrous to deter people from searching us out and invading our waters. They protected us, so when you told me of your tales, I knew you were a good guppy.”
“Is it cannibalism if you eat fish??”
“No.”
This back and forth between the Sailor and Hush, now preferring (Y/n), has been going on for the entirety of the walk to the stables. Seated on top of Epona to prevent his wound from reopening, Wind had no short of breath when asking every question he thought of in his little head. Impressively, at least to Time, (Y/n) never disappointed the boy by answering every question thrown at them, no matter how ridiculous. However, that last one was enough for everybody else.
“For the love of— Enough questions! Goddess, if I hear one more “why” I’m turning around and you’ll never see me again!” Of course Legend was the first to speak up, dramatically covering his ears with his hat.
“Come on, Legend! Are the you the least bit curious?! (Y/n) is more willing to talk now!”
The veteran just groaned, refusing to grace this frustrating argument with a response. (Y/n) merely chuckled, bringing a hand up to cover their mouth as the laughter escapes them.
“Sailor, perhaps that’s enough questions for now, you can ask me more at dinner. That sound good?” In a gentle voice contrasting the carnage they left in their wake an hour prior, (Y/n) does their best to halt whatever ludicrous questions Wind had left.
Reluctantly, the young on agreed with a small pout. “Fine, but I still think that you eating fish is cannibalism!”
“It’s really not.”
Once the stable was in eye shot, many of the group gave halfhearted cheers. It’s not often enough that they get an actual roof over their heads, so it’s a very welcome view. The large horse structure stood high above where the building actually ended, acting as a sort of beacon for the traveling heroes.
Wild, Warrior, and Time went ahead to grab a few beds for the party, one extra soft mattress for Sailor due to his heavy wound. The kid’s been busting his butt with helping everyone out lately, so it was a little treat for him, at least Warrior thought so (yes im a sucker for dad warriror to wind sue me).
Seeing that they were back in a more public area, (Y/n) goes back to being silent. At least now the chain had an idea why and didn’t question it.
(Y/n) helped getting Wind off of Epona and to the bed, lightly cooing at him whenever the boy winces in pain from the movement. The sight particularly warmed Twilight’s heart, feeling especially empathetic towards (Y/n), the two of them both hiding another side to themselves from the chain. He makes mental note to talk to them about it later, Time already asked (Y/n) for a deeper explanation of the situation.
The captain had never seen Wind so willing to help, but it was a welcome change.
Later that night, the group was huddled around a nearby cooking pot, watching Wild toss together who knows what to create their dinner. Wind was resting on his bed, absolutely exhausted from the day. Without his comments, the chain grew tense, many debating who was gonna ask (Y/n) the first question.
“What exactly is a guppy?”
Surprisingly, Sky was the one to break the ice. Everyone’s eyes shoot to either him or (Y/n), Wild almost ends up dropping his ladle into the pot.
The silence following Sky’s relatively innocent question was comical, so much so that (Y/n) couldn’t help but crack a smirk, an airy chuckle escaping them. “Oh boy, it’s gonna be a fun night. It’s just a word for a young mer, nothing more.” They lightly rolled their eyes, the personality they had known mixed with the voice they only just learnt felt so right now hand in hand.
A couple more laughs are shared before the silence from before lays over them again. Twlight shifts his weight on his feet before asking a question everyone was avoiding: “Not that we’re mad but… why did you choose to hide this?” He knew he was a hypocrite for asking such a question, but he just had to know. Maybe, deep down, he just wanted to see how the group responded to revealed secrets. “You kinda touched on it with the sailor, but you didn’t get into the meat of it.”
(Y/n) doesn’t move for a moment, the question weighing heavily on their shoulders.
Noticing their discomfort and stunned by Twilight’s question, Sky tries to speak up. “You don’t have to answer of course! Don’t force yourself—“
“I can show you.”
Without waiting for another word, (Y/n) pulls their shirt up just under their pectoral muscles, the scales the boys had seen in their companion’s arms were scattered across their stomach but…
“My peoples’ scales fetch a high price to noble pigs who use our bodies as jewelry and keep us as pets for status…” That pause to take a steadying breath, “I was trapped as a pet before, had to kill my masters to free myself before they took any more of my skin. It’s just safer to hide ourselves forever than risk becoming nothing less than a trophy.” (Y/n) chuckles humorlessly, their gaze falling to the fire in the center of the group. “Our voices can be a strong indicator for what we really are… So I kept it to myself.”
Twilight could practically see the the flashing memories and arrow fast thoughts flying pass their eyes. He watched them pull their shirt back down, a little further than it usually falls, as if hiding their scared body will erase the pain entirely.
The rancher relaxed his shoulders and sat himself next to them, noting that they shift away when his pelt brushing their back. “That explains a whole heckin lot… Thank you for tellin us, Hush,” (Y/n) relaxes, “even though I bet it stinks having to tell us already.” He smiles and lightly slugs their shoulder, trying to bring some of the playful energy back to the group. “So, you sure it ain’t cannibalism eatin fish?”
“For the love of the goddesses— It isn’t!” (Y/n) overdramatic groan has to be the loudest the chain has heard them speak, if you don’t count their shriek from earlier. Laughter sings around the circle with (Y/n) going into an exasperated rant that they didn’t really mean.
They think they can get used to speaking this loud.
tada, again! \(•v•\)
oh my god- I was not expecting this.
A dark but very realistic background for our friend Hush. Poor thing.
But also- Can't say I'm surprised. Mermaids and sirens are mythical creatures. It only makes too much sense for those rich and ignorant to take advantage of them.
They're free now though! And with good friends and people who will defend them!
Hopefully they do get used to speaking out loud. And maybe learn to blend in a little more with the others when they speak so they don't get caught and figured out.

WHATS UP. SORRY THIS COMIC IS 15 IMAGES LONG LMAO I HAVEN'T USED THE NEW POST EDITOR YET SO THIS IS FORMATTED BADLY. Here's a scene from the hlvraifm au! It takes place not long after the scene where Mind was mean to Gordon about breaking his knee GFDHFDKSJ
THE BASIC CONTEXT HERE IS: Gordon shot at the skeleton that only He Can See, and Mind was already at his breaking point because his withdrawals were setting him off- so nausea with the sudden rage and screaming meant he got sick. He and Gordon have a talk! It doesn't go well(at first)!
If you want to see this conversation resolve itself, the rest is written by me and @shineyfish under the cut! Just read the warnings lol
WARNING: THE REST OF THIS SCENE CONTAINS SOMEONE TAKING DRUGS. IT IS CONTROLLED BUT STILL UNADVISED! It should be obvious but we do NOT condone it LMAO
"Just- just forget about it."
"No, I-! I-I want to know- I want to help-" Gordon said, scooting closer. "And- and you're sick, too- is that what you're mad at me for? That I- that I didn't notice? I-I don't know what even caused it you and I are the only ones who haven't drank the fucking...gross sewage water- but we can- man, I-I'm sure we can take another rest day if we need- or- or I could try to carry you? Dr. Coomer probably could, too-"
Mind was shaking, shuffling backward a little. His eyes were wide as he stared at Gordon, expression filled with fear.
"I'm, I'm good! Get the- back away, please. I need space."
If he wasn't paralyzed with fear he would run. He would run so far from this place, aliens be damned. He needed to get out of here alive. He needed to get out. 
When he said he wanted more answers about him, he didn't mean like this. This just gave him more questions, and made his teeth hurt. 
"I'm just in pain. A lot of fuckin' pain. I can keep going."
Gordon backed up, looking down guiltily. 
"Shit- sorry," he muttered. "...I... I-I dunno if you're...if you've got like, a fever- or how I'd check right now- but-" 
He paused and furrowed his brows. 
"...no...no your suit would treat you for that. Your suit would give you medicine if you got a virus or something- so you're..." 
He blinked, tilting his head the other way now, looking at Mind again. 
"...The fucks going on with you, man?"
Mind’s breath hitched. Shit.
"What are you, a fuckin' cop? Get off my ass about it, I don't need to tell you anything."
He wheezed again, raising his hand to his mouth. God, he felt horrible. Everything ached. He needed something. Pills, morphine, god he will take getting into a fight with someone just for the adrenaline at this point. 
"God I hate this."
Gordon stared at him, worry in his expression before his brows furrowed, and he huffed out his nose, pursing his lips. 
He looked away and opened his mouth to speak, failing a few times in a row, as if he were trying to say something more calm and nice, before looking right back at Mind, lips drawn back in a snarl. 
"You DO need to tell me!" He snapped. "So I can fucking HELP you! You just THREW UP and you expect me not to fucking do anything!?" 
He made an angry, and pained noise, turning his hands towards the ground so they could push him up onto his feet- which made him hiss in pain, but he stood, staring down at Mind with gritted teeth. 
"You're fucking hiding shit and it's setting us back! If you- if you can't trust me how the fuck am I supposed to trust you!?"
That made Mind shut the fuck up. Very suddenly he was Listening Intently, shoulders raised and curling in on himself.
He felt sick again. How his stupid body could even do that to him after already throwing up was a wonder and a curse.
His voice was very quiet when he answered.
"You wanna fuckin know so badly? Fine. I need Oxy, I haven't had pills in days and was banking on the stash I had here, but someone must have fuckin' snitched, cause I couldn't find shit in my locker. Everything hurts and aches, I feel sick and gross and I have had a killer fuckin headache since the stupid rescas even happened."
He growled at Gordon slightly, defensive.
"I wasn't gonna bring shit up because it doesn't matter. I've dealt with withdrawals before, I'm not useless. I know what I'm doing."
Gordon flinched, and blinked at him. 
"...Ohhh. Oh shit-" He said, looking to the ground. "...Ohhh fuck that's- not good! Okay- well, thanks for telling me-" He paused. "...Your suit has morphine, y'know."
Mind's expression withered.
"I am... I am very aware. I'm apparently not in enough pain for it to give me it."
God, he was not having a good time here.
"...Uh," Gordon played with his hands. "...I...look, I-I've never really- gotten the time to look at the blueprints for the HEV suit other than the uh. medical module- mostly so I could uh- know what the fuck it was doing- I...I can see if I can...trick yours into giving you a little? If it'll help?"
Mind yawned again, but his eyes went wide.
"I don't know if I fully trust you to do that."
He weighed his options though, and man he really needed something.
"... Sure."
"...Alright, cool, uh-" 
Gordon moved to scoot closer, before pausing. 
"...Do you still need space, or?"
Mind didn't answer, instead just moving closer to Gordon himself. Being in the same position was starting to kill his muscles.
Gordon sat there, still playing with his hands. 
"...Uh, y-you need to turn around."
He did so without complaint!... Towards Gordon. He was hissing practically the entire time about his joints.
Gordon let out a small, good-natured chuckle. 
"Thanks," he said, before tilting his head at the module. Four screws...
Ideally, he really, really would've liked a screwdriver right now. But he didn't have one. 
...He did have a combat knife he found off of a soldier, though-! 
Twirling it in his hand a few times, he looked at the screws, lined up the tip of it, and made a noise of triumph when it fit! He didn't fucking expect that! Oh my god- why did it-? Nevermind. Didn't matter, he got right to work unscrewing the cover.
"What is that noise for, what did you do-"
Mind was so incredibly uncomfortable with the position he was in. He did not like having potential enemies out of his line of sight, but he couldn't complain about shit or he wasn't getting that sweet sweet relief.
"Nothing- nothing I just- didn't expect the-" Oh, don't tell Mind you had a knife against his back. "Don't worry about it, we're making progress." 
He took off the cover, and if Mind could see him, his eyes would light up a little at the sight. He stuck his tongue out as he focused, trying to be quick for the guy but genuinely fascinated by the machinery. Black Mesa sucked, but the soldiering of the wires was amazing. 
After a few moments, he found a small screen, and an even smaller keypad- annoyingly small. He made a noise of frustration as he decided to use the tip of the knife instead of pressing them with his gloved, giant fingers. 
"Shit...The manual override is locked with a passcode," he muttered. "Uh...Hmm. Okay, gimme a sec, I'm going hackermode."
Mind snorted, trying to keep himself from shaking too much.
"What the fuck do you mean by that-"
"It means I'm trying to crack the damn passcode. Sorry, this might take a WHILE, it- wait what." 
He paused, before letting out a long, long sigh. 
"Was the passcode SERIOUSLY 1234?"
Mind Cackled.
"THERE IS NO WAY THAT IS THE PASSCODE. YOU'RE FUCKING WITH ME."
He was in so much pain. And the number holding him back from pain relief was the easiest to guess thing in the world.
"That doesn't even surprise me! Knowing this place, it's probably the code to other things too."
"Let's- lets use that code for everything, now. Fuck it!" Gordon laughed, a grin on his face. 
There was a few rounds of beeping, before he let out a sigh. 
"...Okay, uh- th-the suit uh, has the automatic amount to um- it's automatically a decently high dosage for uh, your weight, I think? It should be the same amount I was given, but uh, I-I'm worried about...it messing with you too much. Are you sure you'll be alright? I can lower the dosage," 
The expression Mind made at the thought of lowering the dosage was something to behold. It took everything in him to be casual about this.
"I can handle it. I don't think this thing accounts for muscle and joint pain, and if it does the threshold is incredibly fuckin high."
"...Okay, man, but uh- let me know if you need me to- I-I dunno. Lemme know if we need to stop for the day cause you feel too fucked up, okay...?" He said. "...Are you ready?"
"Gordon. Please just give me it."
Mind sounded a little out of it.
Gordon stared at him for a moment. 
"...alright man." 
He pressed the confirm button, and watched Mind carefully, making sure he had no adverse reactions.
Mind let out a shaky breath, honest to god about to cry over this. Finally.
It took a minute for the morphine to kick in, but the second that he could feel it he visibly relaxed, pupils dilated. It wasn't as high as his normal dosage for shit like this, but it was close enough to get rid of the pain, and for that alone he was thankful. If he can get through a bit more of Black Mesa without feeling dizzy or sick, he'd be golden.
"Thank you."
Gordon felt himself swallow and looked at the ground. 
"...Right, yeah, of course-" He said. "...Sorry it took me so long to notice you were going through it, man." 
He started to put the cover back on, screwing everything back into place.
" 's fine, wasn't exactly jumping to tell you 'bout it."
Mind seemed... Chiller, honestly. A little disconcerting from his previous demeanor but that's drugs for you. 
He was tapping against the ground now, mostly just to do something with his hands.
"...I can get why. I-I'm a little worried, but I'm not going to judge you, or anything." 
He let out a sigh once the panel was back on, tight as he could get it, and he rubbed at his face. 
"...Are you still mad at me?"
Mind stretched a little, shoulders popping.
"Nnnope. It's just a clip anyway, we'll probably find like... A million more from the military around here."
"Wh- really?? Just like that??" Gordon blinked a few times, tilting his head. Mind turned to face him, a little confused.
"Yeah? Told you, man, 's just the clip I was pissed off about."
"...Okay, that's...alright." He let out a sigh, before struggling to get up again. He grimaced, still not liking walking on that knee. He took a moment to adjust, before stiffening, staring at something behind Mind, who looked over as well, seeing nothing.
After a few moments, Gordon shook his head and whispered something to himself, something about not questioning your own insanity. 
"Let's try to catch up!" He said, eyeing the pipes the others had walked on, and climbing on.
Mind stood up, shaking his hands out a bit as he did. 
He looked at the pipes with a grimace.
"Y' sure you can climb that with your fucked up leg? Don't think the HEV suit can protect you if you fall into the radiation pit."
“I’ll just take it slow,” Gordon huffed. ”Fuck it, right? We’re both drugged up enough, we can figure it out.”

Learning to Love Slowly
Parings; Jason Todd x Reader 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 A/N; I am saying this now with full confidence, but I completely, wholeheartedly, believe Bruce Wayne can be a good father it's just that DC is too much of a bitch to make him one in the comics. Very controversial, I know. Lol, but on a less serious note, I'm just saying this bc of some things I wrote further in the story.
18- Honeybee Girl and Nightwing
Showing up unannounced at his brother’s apartment, Nightwing sighed loudly, thinking that Jason was somewhere in another room doing something. Dick groaned before throwing down his mask on the coffee table and then dropping himself on the couch in the most dramatic way possible. He whined to his brother about Bruce’s assholeishness, knowing that, of all people, Jason knew best of what he was talking about. When there wasn’t a response, Dick called out his brother’s name.
“Jason had to go somewhere, but he’ll be back in a few,” A sweet voice that wasn’t his brother’s answered. 
Sitting up on pure vigilante instinct, he saw you standing in the doorway between the kitchen and living room. Standing up in case you were a threat, Dick narrowed his eyes on you, instantly suspicious then he realized exactly who you were. Jason’s girlfriend, the Honeybee girl. He kicked himself for not remembering your name. Dick did note that you were certainly pretty and your smile was kind, too.
“Oh, uh,” He mumbled, thinking back on how dumb he must have sounded just then. Holding out his hand, he tried to salvage his pride. “I’m Jason’s brother, Richard. Everyone calls me Dick, though.”
You told him your name, and it was weird how soft your voice was. Maybe Dick expected you to be loud and smart-mouthed, someone to match his brother’s energy. 
“Are you thirsty, Dick? I can get you something to drink if you like,” You offered, pointing to the kitchen. And you were polite? Alfred would lose his mind at the hospitality. After a moment of awkward silence, you asked again, and he sheepishly nodded. 
Retreating into the kitchen you returned with a water bottle, handing it off to him before sitting on the opposite side of the couch. You smiled kindly at him again which made Dick even more confused. 
“Where--where did Jason go?” Was the only thing he could think to ask. 
“He went to pick up some take-out down the street,” You stated in a matter-of-fact tone. “Is everything okay?”
Dick was a bit thrown off by your question, and you must have been able to tell by the look on his face. You explained about what you had heard earlier sounded terrible, which caused you to ask if that’s how Bruce treated all of his kids. 
Dick gestured to himself as he spoke, “No, no! Bruce is, well, he’s a helicopter parent. With some good reason as you can see.”
“Good. I was worried there. I’ve heard a lot of things about him,” You admitted, then quickly realized that you were talking to one of Bruce Wayne’s sons. “I mean, not from Jason! Rumors and stuff.”
Dick nodded, thinking about all the trashy news articles talking about how his father abused his kids. In reality, Burce never raised a hand to any of them in anger or used force to scare them. He was a good father, just an overbearing one. More or less. 
“I have a question,” You said, tone serious now. “What is Bruce like?”
That was a loaded question if Dick ever heard one, but he was positive that you didn’t have any malice behind it. It seemed like you were genuinely curious, so he didn’t hesitate in his answer. 
Bruce was a good father who tried his best, that much he could say. He was kind to his children, albeit, hard on them as well. Bruce did that to keep them safe, especially since Jason’s death. God, Dick could still hear the sobs the guilt of his brother’s death ripped from his father. And sure, they argued, but, at the end of the day, they knew Bruce would love and protect them no matter what. They always came first, he had heard his father say that on more than one occasion. 
“Oh,” You said after his long-winded explanation. “I’m glad to hear it. Jason never talks much about him.”
“Jason isn’t very open with his feelings, especially with Bruce,” Dick said like you hadn’t met the man who was also your boyfriend.
You thinned your lips, thinking, before saying, “I believe Jason isn’t fully aware of how Bruce feels.”
Huh. Dick never thought of it like that. Somehow, seeing and meeting you along with those few words, it was like he was learning who his brother was all over again. Just as you were about to ask about Dick’s experience as a vigilante, the front door sprung open. 
A smile instantly crossed your face at the sight of Jason coming in and he leaned forward as you reached up to wrap your arms around his neck. It was a brief hug, Dick observed, but it seemed to mean the world to Jay. His face flushed and he had a genuine smile that reached his eyes. 
“I’ll take this stuff to the kitchen,” You said, removing your arms. Just as you did that Jason finally seemed to notice Dick. When their eyes met it was like looking at someone new. He seemed lighter, even happy, as opposed to the casual, stoic coolness he possessed. Finally, Dick realized maybe he didn’t know Jason as well as he thought he did. 
“Hey,” He said, motioning Dick to the kitchen. “Come get something to eat. There’s plenty.”
Never one to say no to food, he followed. You were setting out three plates at the small table in the corner of the kitchen, humming a tune to yourself. Jason came up behind you, gently placing a hand on your waist, then pulling it away to pull out a chair for Dick. 
Dick sat, watching the two of you interact quietly, and decided that you two were like those couples that acted like they had been married for fifty years.
“So, how much shit were you guys talkin’ before I got here,” Jason said, voice low like when he had the mask on. 
You smirked, eyes meeting Nightwings’, “Oh, ya know, a whole lot. Right, Dick?”
“Oh, uh, yeah!” Dick wasn’t sure if that was the right answer. 
There was a glint of mischief in your eyes. “Yup, Dickie here told me all about your old Red Hood outfit.”
Dickie. You had to have heard his brother mention that nickname because it had the same sarcastic tone he used. Giving Dick a side eye, Jason let a smile flicker on his lips for a second as pulled out a chair for you before taking a seat himself. 
“I think Dickie left out when he used to wear an open-chested, disco outfit when he first started as Nightwing,” You guffawed at the remake, quickly muffling the sound with your hand. “Was that before or after the mullet? Can’t remember.”
“Open disco outfit with a mullet? Dick, no!” You teasingly lamented. “A dark time for Gotham, indeed.”
Dick laughed, liking how carefree you seemed. “Yeah, not a great outfit choice. Now I got a scar on my chest.”
“Whatcha get for wearing shit like that being a bat,” Jason remarked before munching down on an egg roll. 
You shook your head and stated, “Alfred said you two had the weirdest outfit choices when you first started.”
Holy shit, Dick thought, you knew Alfred, too? Hell, he wondered why you and Jason haven’t married already. Since it seemed you already had Alfred’s approval. He knew he would have to double back and get the latest scoop on your and his brother. 
Dick asked about how you knew Alfred and how the two of you met. You wasted no time telling him. It was a long explanation, especially with Jason inputting with his commentary, but Dick didn’t mind. 
By the end of the night, Dick decided that he liked you. You made Jason happy and even showed him a new side of his brother he had been blind to before. Not to mention you had great taste in take-out, too.

Thank you to @whatevertheweather, @messofthejess, @hushed-chorus, @ionlydrinkhotwater, @wellbelesbian, @iamamythologicalcreature, @ivelovedhimthroughworse and @thewholelemon for the tags this week. I've got no students yet (they start next week), so I'm still managing some words on all my fics (we'll see how long that lasts).
So, on with my quest to turn all of my favorite childhood movies into Carry On fics: My Age of Sail AU, based off of the movie, The Blue Lagoon. Have a little bit of eleven year old Baz and Simon:
I spring to my feet and run full tilt into the pond. Simon’s eyes widen comically, and then he’s thrashing inefficiently through the water, trying to escape my wrath. 
But that’s his miscalculation. I may be a novice to skin-swimming, but I’m quite accomplished at swimming itself. My father saw to it that I had lessons from an early age. Snow paddles like most of the little kids I saw at Brighton. A whole lot of movement for very little progress. 
I catch up to him within seconds, and I’m clamping my hands over his shoulders and shoving him down with all my strength. He knows enough to close his mouth, and bobs up a moment later, blowing out his held breath. Then he laughs and pushes a wave of water towards me with both hands cupped in front of him. 
So it’s war then.
From To Heal a Broken Mind (I'm starting the last chapter, whee!)
I see a muscle in his jaw jerk, and then he’s pulling the sunglasses off his face and pinning me with his icy glare. I stiffen. I haven’t seen this Baz in weeks. Have I done so much damage that I’ve set us back to the beginning?
“You, Simon Snow, are not going to do this,” he says, and his voice is hard. 
From Westward Son:
Baz tosses another stick in the fire. It’s hard to believe that, within a matter of weeks, we went from sweating our way through each day to shivering under blankets and huddling close to the fire, but it’s our reality now, as evidenced by the foot deep white slush I had to wade through just to get from our wagon to the fire ring. Baz is shivering. He’s always been thin skinned and susceptible to the cold. His Egyptian blood coming through, I think.
Simon’s attention is drawn away from Penny by Baz’s movement, and, without even pausing to think, he stretches his other wing out and wraps it around Baz. Baz sighs after a moment and his shivers cease, and I’m left kind of wishing Simon had a third wing for me. 
From Saving Simon Snow
“Baz,” he growls, turning to face me. A faint shiver runs down my spine at his irritated gaze. He’s so beautiful with his blue eyes snapping, his jaw hard and fists clenched. I can’t help it, I’ve always loved riling him up. I’ve wanked to the memory of it sometimes in the shower. “That’s a bloody mansion! How many mansions does your family own?”
I let my lips curl up at him in an almost-sneer. “It’s not a mansion, Snow. Crowley, there are only four bedrooms!”
He glares at me. “And how many rooms that aren’t bedrooms, Baz?” he asks pointedly.
From: Snow Fox
Baz
My parents have been hosting Colonel Tarleton and General Cornwallis all evening, so of course I’m joining in the conversation and listening with everything I have for things of use to Simon. So I’ve got an unfortunate front row seat when one of Tarleton’s men strides in, dragging a bound Pacey Bunce behind him. 
The boy is wearing a continental army uniform, the poor fool. Just putting on that blue coat is considered treason.
From the Naked Next (finished by this weekend!)
She giggles, before gulping down a deep breath and forcing her face back into serious lines. “Shep…I mean Love…I mean…” 
“You can call me love,” I purr.
I can tell she’s fighting back laughter, but she manages to contain it. “The cure. You’ve got to…please?”
I shake my head as if I can shake the cobwebs out of it. “Right! The cure!” 
I let her drag me to sickbay, not least because she’s holding my hand in order to do so. 
Tagging for any time in the future you'd like to post something!
@artsyunderstudy, @bazzybelle, @bookish-bogwitch, @carryonsimoncarryonbaz, @dragoneggos, @erzbethluna, @frjsti, @fatalfangirl, @facewithoutheart, @giishu, @ic3-que3n, @ileadacharmedlife, @j-nipper-95, @krisrix, @larkral, @letraspal, @moments-au-crayon22, @moodandmist, @mostlymaudlin, @nightimedreamersghost, @onepintobean, @palimpsessed, @rimeswithpurple, @raenestee, @thehoneyedhufflepuff, @theearlgreymage, @technetiumai, @tea-brigade, @upuntil6am, @whogaveyoupermission, @yellobb-old, @you-remind-me-of-the-babe

I wanted to write today, but then @revenantghost came along with this and a scene haunted me. Something, something, modern au, where plants and humans were separated, but are now integrating. Vash is a vet tech, Wolfwood is a former cop trainee that went to social work instead and Nai is a high-earning manager of a company called Plant Bee (either something for contraception because the less humans the better or something with bees... I like both ideas). Nai is an arsehole, but at least not evil? Edit: Now with part 2 more sillies
It was a joke gift, really. Vash should have known that Wolfwood would love it and wear it. There are some regrets, but they pale besides Wolfwood’s broad, proud smile when people take a double look. It is a white shirt. The kind of shirt on which you see the bad quality of the fabric just by how it falls. “Eat plantussy. It’s vegan <3,” is written in big, green letters - in Comic Sans, of course. Wolfwood doesn’t wear it for work, fortunately. The teens know Wolfwood supports plant rights and the kids do not need to know that he does more with Vash than holding hands and sharing kisses. Wolfwood knows how to dress adequately being around different kinds of company. Though, somehow, Wolfwood always wears it when they encounter Nai. 
At first, it was an accident, when they were lounging in the shared flat, then it became cruel with intent. The first time, Nai stared at the letters in obvious disbelief. His mouth hung open. His eyes even bulged a little. The utter shock was too immense. And Wolfwood beamed like Vash’s little joke gift was a gift that would keep on giving… And it has kept on giving. Wolfwood and Nai get along like cats and dogs. Nai being full of very polite and distant, but backhanded compliments and comments and Wolfwood countering by showing his roots. The shirt was just another layer added to Wolfwood showing his nasty side. Nai’s office party? Wolfwood has worn it. Celebration dinner with Wolfwood as his plus one? Wolfwood has worn it, under his suit jacket. Nai knew and was foaming, politely. And today, at Vash’s award? Wolfwood has repeated it.
Nai has even tried to appease the demon Vash has awoken in Wolfwood. He has gifted him high quality, silken shirts, a fitting suit jacket, he even used real compliments when he made Wolfwood try the clothes on. But to Nai’s dismay Wolfwood loves his worn-out clothes. Being a somewhat unkempt, gritty former streetrat makes the kid's trust come more readily and Wolfwood fosters that trust to the best of his ability. He'll never know if and which positive interaction reaches them, that's why any interaction counts.
“You will not take a step into my flat with that on,” Nai’s tone is low, growling. His patience has finally snapped in this very staircase. Vash sighs, trying to shimmy between them. ‘It’s our flat. I live there, too,’ Vash wants to say, but Wolfwood wraps his arm around his waist and moves him aside. God have mercy, please. 
Wolfwood tilts his head in his best delinquent manner, shoving his hands in his pockets. “Huh? What did ya say?”
“This,” Nai pokes his finger against Wolfwood’s chest on the white shirt. “This is nasty.”
Vash wails internally. Wolfwood grins like he has just received the biggest compliment. “Well, yer brother loves it.” In one fell swoop his suit jacket is in Vash’s arms and his shirt is off and offered to Nai.
Nai recoils as if he has just touched something slimy in the dirty dish water. “I mean what is written there! It is objectifying! And purely factually wrong!”
“Why?”
Nai just shoots a glare at Wolfwood, who trots behind him into the flat. “Because!”
“Aw, widdle Nini can’t give a reason why he’s pouty.”
“I can and I will elaborate!”
“Cool,” Wolfwood goes to their alcohol cabinet and pours them a glass of whiskey. Nai takes even more offence to Wolfwood drinking his whiskey warm than Wolfwood being topless in their living room. He pointedly goes to the fridge and gets the cooled metal cubes to put in his drink, Vash’s drink and then, while staring Wolfwood down, in Wolfwood’s drink. Wolfwood stares back and empties his glass in one swoop. Nai has to take a deep breath to not scream at Wolfwood for drinking whiskey wrong.
“This shirt mocks women, dehumanises… no, demammals plants and slams down on veganism as a cruelty free form of living. How can you live with yourself?”
“Pretty swell, actually. That said, I heard more than once that a man willing to eat pussy is at least not totally lost in the machismo sauce, because the act focuses on the woman and not on the male pleasure. Feminism is not my expertise, but that is a point to think about. The one who got me that shirt is a plant. He chose the lettering and the writing. He knows a joke and he knows I respect him and both of yer rights and will defend them. Ya know that one, too, buddy.” He pauses and fills his glass again. “I hope.”
 Nai clicks his tongue. “It still mocks vegans.”
Wolfwood deadpans: “Listen, we both know this is not about veganism, plant rights or women’s rights. This is about me eating yer brother out. Daily. Ya have no power here, man. Sucks to be ya, but I will rail yer brother until he sees stars as long as he’ll have me. That can be a week, that can be a year, that can be the rest of my human life,” Wolfwood takes the last swig of his whiskey. Vash lets Wolfwood talk, but the ‘rest of his human life’ has made a big knot appear in his stomach. Wolfwood keeps on talking, but Nai seems to have noticed it with the worried glance that got thrown immediately at Vash. Vash smiles back and waves it off. Completely unaware of the brother’s little, nonverbal talk, Wolfwood points a finger at Nai. “And ya have to deal with it. Yer brother likes sex. And! He somehow got a liking to me. That means, he’ll get it, all of it, any minute I can provide. Ya don’t like sex. And ya despise my existence. But that is on ya and not him. Ya can either accept that one of ya has good taste and the other one tames street rats in his free time, or ya don’t. But ya won’t make me disappear. So how about ya start being a good brother and let yer brother enjoy exploring his sexuality.” Wolfwood thinks for a second and continues: “Because he will do that with or without me and even ya have to agree that I am a somewhat safe partner. Or do ya have someone better in mind? For example, Lega…,” he can’t even end his sentence, because Vash and Nai scream in obvious terror or disgust.

max/daniel. 550 words. henchman au
-
The man that Max is required to kidnap and kill is much too attractive for him to actually want to do it. Ever since he was a kid, his dad always told him to never get emotionally attached to the people they’re forced to kill. Their job is to do what the customer wants, plain and simple. Emotions make all of that even harder.
Yet for some reason, Max can’t help but feel drawn to him. He’s been watching him for weeks now, feeling out his daily routine. He works at a law firm, alongside his childhood best friend named Michael. It’s kind of sweet.
Max finally strikes when he least expects it; when he’s sleeping. He enters through an unlocked window in the lower level of his home, and heads upstairs to the master bedroom.
When Daniel opens his eyes, they widen the moment he registers what’s in front of him, and Max sticks the needle in his neck right then, his body falling limp just as he begins to reach for his phone.
-
Max looks up just as Daniel begins to open his eyes. They flutter for a second before he begins to take full blinks, lifting his head to meet Max’s eye. He can see the shock when he remembers that he doesn’t know where he is; he’s used to seeing it. The way his shoulders climb up, the way he sleepily fights the knots around his wrists and ankles.
“There is no point in trying,” Max informs him, looking up from his book, “I tied it very intricately.” Daniel squints at him, a look of defiance in his eyes.
“You are probably wondering who I am,” Max sighs, getting up and putting the book on his chair. “I am the guy who was hired to kill you.”
Daniel’s eyes widen, his eyebrows furrowing, muffled pleas escaping from behind the gray tape that covers his mouth. “I am not sure whether or not I will kill you yet. You seem like a pretty bearable person, Daniel.”
“If you scream, I will rip your teeth out,” he warns, before taking the tape off of Daniel’s mouth. “How do you know my name?”
“I have to know the name of the person I am required to kill, of course,” Max says, blunt, and Daniel’s eyebrows climb so far up it’s almost comical. “Also, research.”
“So are you some kind of henchman or assassin or something?” Daniel asks, smacking his lips together dryly. “Sure.”
“You won’t tell me which one you are at least? Give a guy something,” Daniel sighs, and Max shakes his head. “I cannot do that for you. But I can give you water.”
“How kind,” Daniel says, a sarcastic smile on his lips. “Just because I said I might not kill you does not mean I will not hurt you.” He watches the fear start to register as he cracks open a bottle of water, pocketing the cap.
“Drink.” He raises the bottle up to his lips, watches how his plump, pink mouth looks around the top of the bottle. He hums, taking it away and capping it.
He puts the tape back on his mouth. “I will come back later. Do not miss me too much.” He turns on his heel, shutting the garage door.

Mystictober day 3-- Wizard/Potion
The first time you see the commercial, you nearly spit out your drink— which is just regular tea, and not the sugary, Dr.Pepper-esque concoction that your brother-in-law is currently peddling. You don't even risk pulling out your phone to keyboard-slam about it on the messenger— you wouldn’t want to miss a single second of the brand-new, Halloween-themed Sevenstar Drink ad.
First of all, the premise is absolutely comical. On screen, Saeyoung sports a long, midnight blue cloak decorated with silver stars and moons; it goes without saying that the matching hat sits atop his head. With an oversized, novelty wooden spoon, he stirs a cauldron full of a glimmering red liquid. You’re pretty sure it’s supposed to be Sevenstar Drink, but you very much hope that it’s just water with red food coloring. You can't imagine how sticky that cauldron is going to be in a few hours if it's actually full of the sugary beverage that the commercial is supposed to depict, which, to its credit, tastes delicious. Unlike the prototype version, the Sevenstar Drink on the market today is made professionally in a food-safe facility, and, as of last summer, comes in diet and caffeine-free varieties. "If you're a busy wizard like me, then you probably spend all day, every day bent over a cauldron, stirring ingredients that nobody needs to worry about into a magic potion to share with all your friends," Saeyoung announces with all the gravitas of a practiced storyteller. He then drops his voice into a conspiratorial whisper, leaning toward the camera as if letting the viewer in on a secret, "Or enemies."
He pretends to stifle a feigned yawn that sounds surprisingly real. Sometimes you forget how skilled he is at acting— you’re so glad that he is finally able to use those talents for a cause that means something to him. Just about everybody on Earth is aware by now that any and all profits made from the sale of Sevenstar Drink are used to fund supplies for orphanages and various programs for their residents. "That can be tiring work."
You have to cover your mouth with your hands to keep from drowning the TV out with your laughter. "But no longer." The image shifts to a clip of Saeyoung, still in the wizard costume, sipping demurely from a can of Sevenstar Drink. He releases an exaggerated sigh of satisfaction. "Drink Sevenstar Drink, for all your potion-making needs. All proceeds go to charity!" He then disappears in a puff of red smoke, with the help of some very impressive special effects.
Before you can take a breath, the Sevenstar Drink logo appears on the screen, and Saeyoung's disembodied voice launches into a rapid-fire recitation of what might be best described as the fine-print portion of the ad. "Sevenstar Drink is a division of C&R international. This commercial was filmed by a professional in a controlled environment— don't try evaporating into a puff of smoke at home. Sevenstar Drink is not responsible for any legal trouble you may encounter when you get caught bent over a cauldron, stirring ingredients that nobody needs to worry about into a magic potion." You’re beginning to suspect that whoever is in charge of the marketing department of C&R gave Saeyoung free reign over the contents of his commercial. If that’s the case, you’re very grateful— you just watched one of the most entertaining ads on TV.
Only when the logo fades to black and you're confronted by a new commercial for a fast food restaurant do you open the messenger to greet the absolute pandemonium that has unfolded over the course of the past thirty seconds. You get the feeling that sales of Sevenstar Drink are about to go through the roof.

I bought and read the novelisation of The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (the book based on the movie based on the comic book based on classic Victorian literature) and it’s facinating to see the difference between movie Jeykll and this version of Jeykll. people in the fandom joke about him being kind of wet and pathethic in the film, which is definitely an exageration, but in the novelisation... it’s a tad more accurate.
Shaking with weakness and personal misery, the scrawny figure arose, blinking his nervous, saucer-wide eyes. He was a slight man who easily slipped his entire hand out of Hyde’s wrist shackles, leaving the torn chains on the floor. His ashen face reflected his ordeal. His large Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as he gulped.
“Henry Jeykll, at your service. And I would very much like to earn my pardon and return to London.” He swallowed hard. “May I have a glass of water, please?”
someone please wrap this man in a blanket and give him some tea.
“Liar. I’m a good man.” Jekyell whimpered.
[after talking with Nemo]
Jekyll scampered away without looking back.
That Henry Jeykll, famous for scampering about everywhere.
Jeykll blinked his saucerlike eyes, then swallowed hard in his scrawny throat.
again with the saucer eyes.
“I’m going inside there.” Jeykll’s voice was a mere squeak amid the choatic noise.
I wish I could make gifs because I would love to have a side-by-side comparison between this description and Jason Flyming’s actual performance.
Then his body began to change. Bones lenghened and thickened, muscles swelled and bulged. [...] He convulsed and spasmed, clamping his lips shut to hold in the air. Every time he suffered through this, the transformation brought him more and more agony.
Finally, Jekyll could not help himself. He screamed underwater, but let out only a mouthful of bubbles as his back arched and limps thrashed. His eyes began to bleed.
not actually connected to the ‘wet and pathetic’ thing, I just really like how the book described the transformation here. it really leans hard into the body horror on top of the horror of drowning.
Skittish Jekyll slipped on the slick coating of fresh frozen ice that covered the armored upper deck, but Quartermain caught him.
Someone had way too much fun with alliteration here.
[Skinner] looked like a frozen corspe, but at least he had stopped shivering, unlike Henry Jekyll.
‘Skinner might look like a zombie but at least he isn’t shivering like a loser.’
“Look out!” Jeykll cried in a thin squeak. He shoved Nemo aside just before the icicle spike spintered into chips on the chimney floor.
“I thank you. I would have been killed.”
Jeykll blinked, then smiled. “I’m glad that... I can be useful, too.”
yes Henry you did a Good Job here but also this isn’t the time for your praise kink.

APS Book One Excerpt (1)
Taken from "Chapter One: The Pub and the Peril."
If you wish to see the WIP intro for more information, you may find it here.
Tumblr media
I exhaled slowly. "For the last time, Caster, that guy insisted on us coming to this place, and he wasn't gonna give up. There was no choice, okay? I promised him thirty minutes here, and then we'd leave." Lifting up my wristwatch, I checked the time. 1:20 A.M. "We have ten minutes left anyway, so don't worry. We'll get outta here soon, and I promise I'll pass you the aux cord when we get in the car to make up for it. Deal?"
Caster paused for one, two… three moments. "Fair enough. But can you please remove that book from the table and do something other than read?" He shot a pointed glance at the comic near my half-full glass of tequila. "I'm afraid you'll spill your drink and soil the pages."
"Oh, come on, I'm not that clumsy! It won't spill!" I replied.
Silence dropped on us like a weighted blanket, and Caster simply raised a brow that clearly said, Are you sure about that? 
Two seconds passed and I bit my lip, backtracking to all the moments I'd soaked pages with water or coffee (plus the time when I had to ban myself from having paper and liquid near each other for a couple weeks…).
"Okay, I take it back," I muttered, pulling the book off the desk and slipping it into my bag. "So what do you wanna do?”
He shrugged. “Say, do you have any homework to finish?”
“Um…” I paused. “I don't know why I'd do homework now of all times, but yeah, I do. It’s just one art assignment that’s due in…” I checked my watch. “Negative two hours.”
Caster clicked his tongue in disappointment, shaking his head. “You procrastinated again, didn’t you?”
Glancing away, I fidgeted uncomfortably in my seat. “Yes… and I knew I was probably gonna miss the deadline… Look, I don’t even know why I chose this art major, okay?” 
I didn’t even want to. Not because I hated art, but because I’d probably fail at it — just like always. 
“You did so because you knew what you wanted,” Caster replied (also, no I didn't Caster; you're wrong). “But now… it seems like you’re wasting it, no offense. However, at least you had your desires in mind. I still don’t, and therefore that puts me at a level lower than you.”
Yeah, of course I was wasting it. Because I wasn’t any good at it, and therefore lost all the passion for it. Where was the reason in wanting to do something if I just messed it up? Exactly. No reason at all.
But of course, I didn’t mention that — because it would be horribly unhelpful — so I just raised a brow and said, "I mean, at least you aren't forcing yourself to go down your family's path. I don't think anyone wants to support the government. Give yourself some credit, man."
And at least he was actually getting straight A's in his law and business course. Saying that wouldn’t help, though, so I kept my mouth shut.
"Very true, but what I do now still doesn't please me.” Caster bit his lip. “I… could try something else, but…”
“Well, if you were to disregard your position in life right now, what would you wanna be?”
Just as I finished speaking, the fancy glass doors to the bar suddenly swung open, and in came three people wearing dark clothing. But they were strolling around casually, so I disregarded it. Why bother with other people's business? I wasn't like Desmond.
"If I could choose anything… a vigilante, I suppose." Caster tapped his chin. "Both of us have super abilities, so is it not best to make the most of them?"
... Even if that was impossible, he still wanted something to do in his life. (It made me realize how I didn't want to do anything at all.)
I sighed, pushing away my irrelevant, personal thoughts. "Okay, I didn't say, 'throw logic out the window,' but… alrighty then. That's not feasible though, and you know why. Or rather, it's not smart. Like, I'm not exposing my hydrokinesis just to do that."
"Firstly, you said, 'disregard your position in life right now,'" Caster argued. "So therefore, my answer is still valid."
"I meant, 'disregard the fact that you're a uni student who doesn't exactly know what he's doing.' Not 'disregard the fact that superpowers" — I lowered my voice, even if nobody could hear — "are supposed to be kept secret.'"
Pushing his long ponytail over his shoulder, Caster sighed. "Well, I've still been pondering the idea. Vigilantes are bound to exist with inefficient police forces plaguing Codex. So there must be some superhumans out there who take matters into their own hands."
"Well, sure, but if they did, they'd get caught. It's kinda easy to expose your abilities when you're battling criminals."
"If you think about it, however, Codex has been dealing with the issue of magic powers since 9050, so perhaps it’s not so — wait, wait, I should take that back…" Caster shook his head. 
"Yeah, not the best point to make. When Codex was dealing with Exelonians… You know, it wasn't pleasant, with prisons and torture and war and all. Adding superhumans — who have an even wider range of abilities Exelonians— to the mix is only gonna cause more trouble," I replied. "So, to sum it up: the idea of vigilantes is great, but I hate the reality of it."
My friend paused. "I admit, you raise a fair point. But really, don't you think that life is so dull…"
"Ack! Hey, stop! What are you doing?"
The shout came from across the room, forcing me to flinch.
I knew it was bad manners to look away when someone was talking, but what was going on at the front of the bar? 
My eyes widened when my gaze landed on the scene playing out in front of me.
The three people who entered earlier had cleared the way of the dance floor, and the largest one in the trio… was holding Desmond in a chokehold.
What. The. Hell.
