It's Embarrassing (Eddie Munson x reader) (Part 1)
I woke up this morning with this in my head and have been trying to write it all day. Also, I don't like smoking, I'm just going through a phase. Can you tell I've never smoked? I am the squarest.
Everyone is in their 20s, Eddie and reader have been in a secret relationshipish for a few months. Angst.
There is a part 2 I think. I just need to get the ending right. Feedback is welcome xx
Part 2 is here
***
You pulled your t-shirt over your naked body before you took the cigarette from Eddie, put it to your mouth and immediately started choking on the smoke.
He looked at you with concern. “You ok?”
“Yeah,” you coughed, “super.”
“You have smoked before right?”
“Yeah.” You waited a second before shaking your head no. He gestured for you to give it to him and he took a long drag, not choking like you did.
“What?”
“That was hot.” You buried your face in his neck and he began to laugh. You in nothing but your t-shirt, Eddie in nothing but his boxers, yes, you could get used to this.
***
That morning was rushed as you and Eddie got up awfully late and then you had to go home for your uniform. The door to family video was already open when you got there, leaving your car quickly and running into the store.
“I'm sorry.”
“Don't worry, I did the morning rush.” You rolled your eyes at Robin. There never was any morning rush.
***
The phone began to ring.
“Family video, how can I help you?”
“I can think of a few ways.”
A very recognisable voice came through the phone and made you drop your customer service demeanour. “Stop.”
“I can't help it. I missed you.”
“Its been like an hour.” You checked around for where Robin had gone but couldn’t find her so assumed she must have gone into the back.
“I'd say nearly 2.”
“An hour and 10 minutes is not nearly 2 hours.”
Eddie replied quieter than before. “2 whole hours I've been thinking about those cute little panties you left on my floor.” You blushed.
“I'm at work, you can't say that.”
“No one can hear though.”
“You should be at work.”
“I am.”
“Are you calling off the garage phone? Eddie, anyone could hear.” You tried to sound annoyed but somehow you weren't as mad as you wanted to be.
“No they won't. Its only me in now, everyone else had having an early lunch.” That relaxed you a little. “Anyway, you coming over again tonight?”
Your faced twisted a little, unsure if you should. “I don't know, I've gotta do laundry and I should probably clean my apartment.”
“I could always come help?”
“I don't know how helpful you’d be.”
“I could always help you with some of your clothes...”
The thought made you scrunch your face and attempt to hide a huge grin.
“Clean or dirt-”
Robin started her way back through the store to you, so you quickly cut him off.
“Thank you for calling madam. Goodbye.” Your voice quick and very dry, you slammed the phone down on the receiver quickly.
“What was that about?”
Hiding your blushed face by looking down you picked up a pile of videos and took them to the back of the store. “Erm... they were asking about Betamax.”
***
It had been a slow day. So slow that it seemed to go on forever. The sun had finally started setting when Eddie and Steve meandered into the store. Neither you nor Robin, who was sat on top of the front counter, greeted them when they came in, to busy staring into space and sucking on lollipops to notice them.
“What is that?”
Robin pushed the round top of her lollipop into your neck, just below your shirt collar.
“Robin, that's gross.” Your neck felt sticky now.
“That is gross. Who did that to you?” her faced pulled into a huge grin.
“Stop.” You pulled your collar down a bit and looked at your reflection in the tall windows. For fuck sake. You’d checked for marks this morning, clearly not well enough.
“Who was it? Did you stop over, oh is that why you were late this morning?”
“I wasn’t late.”
“Tell me.”
“No.”
“How did I not notice that sooner? Who was it?”
“Its noone.”
“Is it because those bozos are here?”
She eluded to Eddie and Steve hanging around the back of the store.
“No, its-“
Robin yelled across the room, “Munson, Harrington, get out.”
“Why?”
“She won't tell me who’s been attacking her neck because you two won't leave.”
If the ground would swallow you up now that would be wonderful. You could feel your face flushing bright red, and now not only Robin but Steve and Eddie were all staring at the purple stain on your neck. Steve with curiosity, Robin with disgust and Eddie with sick pride.
“I'm not going anywhere. I want to know who our dear friend has been slutty with.” Eddie sang. Why was he doing this to you?
“I'm not being slutty with anybody.”
“Who was it?” Robin asked again.
Then Eddie started with the rapid fired accusations.
“Was it Jason?”
“Ew.”
“Paul?”
“No.”
“Craig?”
“No.”
“Harrington?” Steve looked very confused and shook his head.
“Eddie-“
“Michael?”
“Stop it.”
You’d had enough. Storming away from the front counter you left your 3 friends behind and made a beeline for the employee bathroom, tears threatening to burst from your eyes. Robin pushed herself away from the counter to follow you but Eddie stopped her.
“I went too far. I’ll go.”
***
The bathroom stall door shook as someone knocked on the wood.
“Go away, Robin.”
“Not Robin.”
You opened the door and Eddie was stood far too close, blocking your exit. Pushing him out of the way you threw your hands against the sink to hold yourself up and stared into the mirror.
“I'm sorry, I went too far.”
“You think.”
“Why don't you tell them?”
“I can’t. I have a reputation to uphold.”
“A reputation?”
“And this,” The bruise on your neck seemed to grow under your gaze. Everyone would know. What would your parents say? What would everyone say? Even if you covered it with makeup, Robin and Steve knew so all your friends would know soon. You snapped. “This is embarrassing, Eddie.”
All you heard was the bang of the bathroom door as Eddie stormed out, not saying a word.
***
You knew your car was going to be much warmer than any welcome you got from Eddie but you hadn’t seen him in a week, so you needed to talk to him.
Wayne answered the door and your heart sank.
“Hey, sweetheart. He’s not here.”
“Oh, ok. Thank you. When he comes back, can you... ask him to call me? He’s got my number and everything so...”
You stepped back on the porch slightly, before thinking again.
“And if he’s needs to um, I know your line isn’t always good, so if he's got to use the phone down the street, can you give him these?”
You placed at least 2 dollars worth of quarters in Wayne’s hand and smiled a tight-lipped sad smile at him. He nodded and showed you the same.
Wayne watched you get into your car and drive off before he shut the door. Eddie stood in the kitchen pulling at his lip.
“You going to call her or what?”
***
Part 2 is here
Any feedback is welcome and encouraged. Thank you so much for reading 💜💜💜
[I only watched the first 7 episodes of season one of Stranger Things so I'm sorry if it feels wrong. I will not be watching anymore]

Tā moko and Blackbeard - PLEASE READ
Tumblr media
Omg Blackbeard’s tattoo’s are so cool-
Tumblr media
Wait a second . . .
Tumblr media
WHOA WHOA WHOA HOLD ON A MINUTE THERE
That went from zero to 100 REAL quick lets get some education about tā moko up in here before we make these wild claims! Tatau or tattoos have been found all over the world in many civilisations, but it was absolutely the Age of Sail and the colonisation of the Pacific Islands that popularised it and spread it around the world. Tatau is a samoan word that means to strike, and many polynesian cultures have a rich history of tattooing with very specific meanings and connections. Western sailors visiting the islands got their own and soon brought tattoos back to white civilisation where we know and love it today as artistic body modifications. Western tattoos usually come with deep individual personal meaning as opposed to the widespread cultural meaning that occurs in polynesian tattoos. Tattooing has also had a big impact on the queer community too which makes the ofmd connections all the more interwoven (it’s about the intricate rituals)
Tumblr media
Edward “Blackbeard“ Teach from Our Flag Means Death is played by Taika Waititi, a Māori and jewish man, and as part of his character design, Taika’s own tattoos were added upon to create the visuals of blackbeard! These tattoos are an essential part of the character and it makes sense that anyone drawing or especially cosplaying Blackbeard would want to make sure that these tattoos are included. Unfortunately there has already been a few (probably well-intentioned) call-out posts for doing so (see above), saying that cosplayers should not be drawing on tattoos that have specific cultural significance! Which is absolutely correct! The problem is these posts have also failed to recognise what is and isn’t Māori tā moko and what is literally just . . a regular tattoo 🙈  Here’s Taika and his tattoos:
Tumblr media
The eagle on his chest, the little Rita Ora tattoo on his hip and yes, those black bands on his arms are all likely to have very personal meaning to Taika but they are not tā moko.
Tā moko is the practice of tattooing that is specific to the Māori people and a quick google search will show you just how recognisable tā moko is, a tradition that goes back hundreds of years.
Tumblr media
Tā moko is usually the more traditional type reserved for the face and the more modern concept of tattoos as body art can be referred to as Kirituhi. Every piece is unique to the wearer, with koru (spirals) that represent family and the darker infilled parts using various symbolic patterns.
Here to give some input as Māori people themselves are my friends on twitter speaking about the specific tā moko that Taika has that you shouldn’t try to reproduce: The tā moko on his leg, the whare (meeting house) on his wrist, and the traditional imagery of rā the sun on his back (seen in the above photo of Taika also) 
@neonbirb
Tumblr media
@weylandyuutani
Tumblr media
@ceylonthae
Tumblr media
So to conclude: YES as a non Māori person you should avoid drawing on tā moko as part of a cosplay as there is very deep cultural and personal significance in those specific tattoos, and Māori people who see their culture misrepresented in a poor rendition of tā moko will likely take offense. but unless Taika himself has asked people not to there’s nothing wrong with drawing on the tattoo’s that aren’t tā moko, including the eagle on his chest and yes, those two black bands on his arms. BUT ALSO: do not erase tā moko from fanart of blackbeard, if you want to draw the whare on his wrist or the rā on his back, or the kirituhi on his leg - power to you!!! And don’t bloody whitewash the man either or I’ll set the kraken on you!!!  ☠🐙 (Please go retweet and support my friends on twitter I have linked them all above their tweet screenshots!)

Hello, I urgently need help.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hope everyone new year is blessed and at least better than mine. Feel free to scroll. Six days in, and it’s been hellish. If you can offer any urgent assistance/support/advice/prayer/help. I’d be so grateful. I hate how life has turned out. I’ve really tried everything. Am I losing the will to live? Yes. 
I’ve been in and out of hospital, for an illness that still hasn’t been identified 
can’t afford to get to work (or anywhere)
Recent mice infestation, to which I’ve reported to the landlord - he said it’s not his problem. 🫠
I have minus £6. 
I don’t eat/sleep anymore. I only panic tbh. 
The case regarding the former housemate who tried to k*ll me, has had the case adjourned - prolonging the process. Look at what she did to my door. The stairs is where she tried to k*ll me.
These antidepressants have tr uly messed me up
PayPal (preferable): www.paypal.me/chewe
Cashapp only works for people in the UK (sadly) : £beleshid
I really have nothing. Like, nothing. Just alone. I don’t think I can do this anymore fr, and I’m not sure I really want to any. 
On metaphorically on bent knee, PLEASE help ONLY if you can, or even boost/share. 
God Bless You.

Tumblr is the safest app ever, because I'm the only one in my family who uses it. So I can post anything I want basically, without the fear of going outside and running into someone who's seen the shit I post online.

Twitter Swifties need to go outside and touch grass. They have way too much free time, especially for people who obsessively harass Joe Alwyn and call him “Jobless”.

If laena wedded viserys the dance will happen expect rhae*nyra won't get the velaryon support and if anyone thinks otherwise they don't understand coryls and rhaenys
I just got an insanely similar ask right before this one, and I will say the same thing. this is insanely true.
Corlys only backed Rhaenyra and her bastard children because he was desperate to get even a figment of his name near the throne. he only backed Luke and Jace's parenthood through Laenor as it was the only way to "get his blood" on the throne (even if the boys were not truly his, 'history only remembers names').
if Laena had been queen and had children to Viserys, he would have abandoned Rhaenyra the second Jace popped out with brown hair, he wouldn't have even waited for Luke or Joffery to be born.
Rhaenys backs her husband just as much as she wishes to further their shared bloodline, so it would be easy to say she would similarly back Laena's children. we saw her push for Baela and Rhaena to take the claim to Driftmark despite hating Daemon, imagine if Laena's children were born to the thrown through Viserys? she would similarly back Laena and drop Rhaenyra in a heartbeat.
I would even argue they would support Laena prior to Rhaenyra having children and would potentially avoid wedding Laenor to Rhaenyra to begin with (as it would serve them better to marry him to another house to create an ally instead of marrying him to Rhaenyra where it would have little benefit)
the war would be insanely quick and easy if Rhaenyra had attempted to petition her and her childrens claim, she would have no allies and the realm would more than likely drop their oaths.
those TB fans are so delusional sometimes, that their terrible takes only serve to damn their girl more than she already was.

Almost back from hiatus, should be finished with my next post tonight!
I've made the decision to temporarily not accept art requests. They were never super officially open, but I got them anyways (and I love getting art requests) but I've had like, 11 of them sitting in my inbox for MOOONTHS and I feel so guilty over not drawing them. 🥴
So, until I finish the ones I have, I won't be accepting anymore art requests! I'll update my profile once they're finished☺️☺️
Feel free to still send me asks, its just art requests I won't take for now!

Tom without Sony is no one in the industry. Sony would have done a million times better marketing to promote any of their projects and could get some good indications as well. The question is: Tom can't survive in this environment without the help of Sony and he urgently needs to stop working with Apple TV, it's not the first time they humiliate Tom, first with Cherry and now with TCR.
Bro shut up already! I am begging! Take your stans insecurities somewhere else 😂
