hey, i find your posts about historical fiction pretty interesting, do you have any recs?
anon this is the most beautiful and validating ask i have ever received. absolutely of COURSE I have recs. not gonna be a lot of deep cuts on this list but i love all of these books and occasionally books do receive awards and acclaim because they are good. in no particular order:
the cromwell trilogy by hilary mantel. of course i gotta start with the og. it’s 40 million pages on the tudor court and the english reformation and it will fundamentally change you as a person and a reader
(sub rec: the giant, o’brien by hilary mantel. in many ways a much shorter thematic companion to the cromwell trilogy imo. about stories and death and embodiment and the historical record and 18th century ireland. if you loved the trilogy, read this to experience hils playing with her own theories about historical fiction. if you are intimidated by the trilogy, read this first to get a taste of her prose style and her approach to the genre. either way please read all four novels ok thanks)
lincoln in the bardo by george saunders. the book that got me back into historical fiction as an adult. american history as narrated by a bunch of weird ghosts and abraham lincoln. chaotic and lovely and morbid.
the everlasting by katy simpson smith. rome through the ages as seen by a medici princess, a gay death-obsessed monk, and an early christian martyr. really historically grounded writing about religion and power, and also narrated with interjections from god’s ex boyfriend satan. smith is a trained historian and her prose slaps
(sub rec: free men by katy simpson smith. only a sub rec bc i read it a long time ago and my memory of it is imperfect but i loved it in 2017ish. about three men in the woods in the post revolutionary american south and by virtue of being about masculinity is actually about women. smith did her phd in antebellum southern femininity and motherhood iirc so this book is LOCKED IN to those perspectives)
a mercy by toni morrison. explores the dissolution of a household in 17th century new york. very different place and time than a lot of morrison’s bigger novels but just as mean and beautiful
(sub rec: beloved by toni morrison. a sub rec bc im pretty sure everyone has already read beloved but perhaps consider reading it again? histfic ghost story abt how the past is always here and will never go away and loves you and hates you and is trying to kill you)
an artist of the floating world by kazuo ishiguro. my bestie sir kazuo likes to explore the past through characters who, for one reason or another (amnesia, dementia, being a little baby robot who was just born yesterday, etc), are unable to fully comprehend their surroundings. this one is about post-wwii japan as understood by an elderly supporter of the imperial regime
(sub rec: remains of the day by kazuo ishiguro. same conceit as above except this time the elderly collaborator is incapable of reckoning with the slow collapse of the system that sheltered him due to britishness.)
the pull of the stars by emma donoghue. donoghue is a strong researcher and all of her novels are super grounded in their place and time without getting so caught up in it they turn into textbooks. i picked this one bc it is a wwi lesbian love story about childbirth that made me cry so hard i almost threw up on a plane but i recommend all her histfic published after 2010. before that she was still finding her stride.
days without end by sebastian barry. this one is hard to read and to rec bc it is about the us army’s policy of genocide against native americans in the 19th century west as told by an irish cavalry soldier. it is grim and violent and miserable and also so beautiful it makes me cry about every three pages. first time i read it i was genuinely inconsolable for two days afterwards.
this post is long as hell so HONORABLE MENTIONS: the amazing adventures of kavalier & clay by michael chabon, the western wind by samantha harvey, golden hill by frances spufford, barkskins by annie proulx, postcards by annie proulx, most things annie proulx has written but i feel like i talk about her too much, the view from castle rock by alice munro, the name of the rose by umberto eco, tracks by louise erdrich

Dove | Simon "Ghost" Riley

A/N: Hello lovely people, I have a backlog of short stories written for things like Avatar: The Way of Water, MWII, Stranger Things, The Arcana, Outer Banks, and many more that I have never posted and keep to myself. I'm talking hundreds of pages worth of fluff, angst and eventual smut - you've got to get through some plot first, though. HOWEVER, if anyone likes my writing and wants to task me with stuff to write, like straight smut, I'm all ears. Anyway, if anyone is interested in reading stuff I could potentially post, here is a snippet for a little Call of Duty fic.
Synopsis: You're to play the materialistic wife of a rich, well-connected husband during an undercover mission. You're to-be husband is a temporary recruit of the 141, who is to supervise your every move. While getting ready, you have a surprising interaction with your Lieutenant, Ghost, who you swear has made it his mission to treat you like a stranger day after day. Until now.
Pairing: Simon "Ghost" Riley x f!reader
Contains: pretty much nothing of importance, just Ghost being as unreadable as ever, causing reader to have their mind blown by the smallest of crumbs
• • • • •
I look in the mirror at the woman who is supposed to be Lyanna Winstead. She’s the partner of Dario Winstead, son of a wealthy businessman. Everything about Lyanna is a carbon copy of myself. Her smile, her hair, her figure, her voice. Only, she presents herself in a way I haven’t in a long time.
Gone is the tactical gear and camouflage colours. Instead, she wears the most beautiful dress I’ve ever seen. The outline of the dress is simple yet captivating to suits the old Hollywood theme. Silver cascades down her body, creating the illusion of a mercury waterfall. The sweetheart neckline and thin straps compliment her full breasts and soft arms. Adorning the bodice are glistening silver designs that remind me of old, swirling boarders on French mirrors. The designs fall away, melting into plain silver threads that fall to the floor and pool at her feet. The dress hugs her body like a second skin, only melting away at her knees. The silhouette fit her hourglass figure well.
The silver jewellery she wears is modest so as not to take away from the dress’s magnificence. On her neck is a dainty Vivienne Westwood necklace, the inner planet of the pendant a pearl. Matching dangling earrings hang from her lower lobe piercing. The rest of her ear piercings are small diamond studs and silver hoops. One wrist displays a thin diamond tennis bracelet and a Van Cleef one with emerald clovers. On the other is the only ode to myself: the evil eye bracelet I never take off. The thin silver chain and bejewelled eye thankfully blend into the rest of the accessories. Small rings cover her fingers, few in number and easily ignorable. The bands are thin and any jewels are small and clear. However, one stands out; a breathtaking sight on her left index finger.
Glittery diamonds cover the band, giving way to a large, circular moonstone. Rainbow shimmer comes to life in the milky stone when the light hits it just right. Separating the band and the centrepiece are two small flowers with diamond centres. Two separate rings sit beneath and below the main one, shaped in V’s to follow the curve. At each point are flowers similar the the others, with curved leaves flowing from the petals. All three are gold, contrasting against the silver to make a statement.
I’m not just looking back at Dario’s partner. I’m looking at his wife.
I’m Will’s wife. 
Fake wife, really. I nearly shake my head in wonder. I still look like myself, but everything about this makes me feel like I’m wearing a second skin. Lyanna’s skin. Every so often I stare at the ring in amazement. If anyone ever proposes to me, I would hope for nothing less than the magnificent that is this ring. All that adorns my body is courtesy of Will. Unbeknownst to me before this mission, he’s filthy rich, and a filthy rich man needs a filthy rich wife. All the designer jewellery, the dress, the shoes, and the engagement ring are authentic and top dollar.
After the last touch-ups of make-up, fragrances, and hair, I’m making my way to the courtyard. I’m to have one last briefing and run over of the plan before getting in Will’s blacked-out Corvette. I have to give it to him: he really knows how to pull off a lavish life with style.
Already am I wishing to rip off the damn stilettos on my feet. While I could live in the dress and jewellery, this is the one day a year I’m willing to wear heels.
The air is cool, the last golden light of day painting the courtyard and walls of Alejandro’s HQ in a luminescent glow. A low rumble fills the air from my 'husband’s car. Will leans against it, speaking with the 141. Ghost lingers back by the front door, arms folded and back leaning against a pillar. Weaving between his fingers with precision is a small dagger. His head turns at the sound of approaching heels.
“Was starting to think you were a no show,” he says gruffly.
I stop beside him to adjust my dress. It doesn’t really need adjust, but suddenly being subjected to his gaze makes me anxious. “Told you it would take a while. Gotta look the part.”
The way his eyes travel over my body almost makes me shrink away. Every curve is on full display. The tight bodice holds up my already full breasts, and somehow my waist-to-hip ratio is even more accentuated. Wearing my uniform doesn’t exactly hide my figure thanks to the tight shirts and cargo pants that aren’t exactly loose from my mid-thigh up. However, a lot of me is lost beneath the vests and belts.
“Stop...inspecting me, or whatever you're doing,” I mumble. “Makes me think I need to fix something.”
I begin taking the skirts in my hand as I survey my descent. It’s not too much, but the steps are steep enough to be an issue. The heels on my feet are no help.
Ghost shakes his head. “Don’t. You look…”
“Important?”
“Pretty.”
I stop in my tracks to look back at him, unsure if I heard him correctly. He doesn’t look away or seem embarrassed to have said so. Then again, when does he ever. No-nonsense and prideful in his emotionless character, Ghost is not one to regret his words. Everything he says is a calculated move. Compliments are certainly something to be calculated in a sense, but I don't think of it to be a compliment, even when a small part of me screams for more. I'm playing my part well; there'd be a problem if I wasn't looking pretty. A slow smile quirks at my lips, teasing in nature as I raise my brows. The teasing turns to surprise, however, when he offers me his arm.
“How chivalrous,” I quip as I lightly take his offered arm. Even the slightest contact sends thrills beneath my skin. “Careful, Lieutenant. I might start to think you actually like me.”
Ghost’s eyes train on the ground. At first, I wonder if he doesn’t want to meet my eyes, only then to realise he’s watching my footing. I barely catch a glimpse of his squint.
“I like you in one piece,” he corrects. “This job will be over the second you sprain your ankle on a flight of stairs.”
I hum. “Ahh, there it is.”
He looks up at me then. “There’s what?”
“Thinking about the job, as always.”
As always, I keep my tone light and teasing, but there's an accusing hint. A subtle jab I let slip that I pray goes unnoticed.
There's no room for emotions in this job, and though I've compromised that with the rest of the 141, Ghost is a difficult case. An impossible riddle, a mind-numbing equation with no real answer. Nothing about him should be likeable. He's painfully honest and dismissive when he bothers to speak, he's angry half the time, his attention is never lingering and his mind is an impenetrable fortress. It would make more sense to give in to Alejandro's shameless flirting or Gaz's sleazy grins. Only, it's Ghost that keeps me up at night. It's Ghost, who sends a pang through my chest when he reminds me any care is from pure investment in performance. I'm useful, nothing more.
I can count on one hand the number of times he's thrown me small morsels of care as if I were a stray dog whining and begging for food. Even then, I wouldn't have made it past three fingers. A greedy piece of me spins those memories into something that serves my desire. See, he's returning your interest, that hopeful voice purrs in my ear while feeding me botched versions of what really happened. I know better than to give in to the delusions. The ending of those memories is what sobers me, and it's no different now. I need you in shape for tomorrow. Keep your head in the game. I'm just making sure this isn't interrupting the job. He's always quick to redirect any concern from me to the job.
Maybe, just maybe...what if he was trying to save face? Does he not want to care?
Ghost remains silent for a moment. In consideration or because he doesn’t care to answer, I can’t tell. But when he does answer, his voice has my full attention. It’s low and rough, each syllable laced with something intoxicating. Something I've never heard before and never thought I would hear. Something I want to hear again and again.
“You have no idea what I think about, dove.”
Dove.
The response catches me so off guard I almost forget to take another step. We’ve reached the bottom of the steps, now. The second both my feet are on the flat expanse of the concrete driveway, he breaks away from our linked arms. There is no follow-up, no hint of a miscommunication, not even a look in my direction before he's gone from my side. All I can do is hesitantly trail behind him, lost in my thoughts.
Ghost has never given me a nickname before. Hell, he barely refers to me as anything other than my callsign. When I do hear my real name, it's never for good reasons.
The nickname that pours from his lips comes in a deep voice curled into a sensual tone, sounding like silk-covered marble, low and intended for my ears only. It's strangely intimate—something a lover would purr with lustful eyes and a seeking touch. Somehow it seems to invoke a phantom touch that glides across my skin. Gooseflesh puckers in its chilling wake. In the span of only a few seconds, I seem to experience every emotion humanly possible. Shock, surprise, a sickening, perverse enjoyment...and irritation that I must now join the rest of the team as if a mind-numbing heat was not boiling in the pits of my stomach

I'll get the formatting of posting these to be prettier btw I promise 🙏🙏 But anyway just interact with this or tell me directly if you want more.

Severus picked you up not simply by looping his arms around your waist, but while one of his arms held you tightly by the waist, the other slid up your back, until his hand was softly tangled in your hair again. Feeling the length of his arm pressing gently against your back made you feel so safe, like you had a tangible anchor to the warmth and steadiness in your life.
That’s what he is, you found yourself thinking, steady, reliable…
Severus, meanwhile, was having a hard time keeping his eyes off of you. For you were pressed flush against him and nearly sitting in the crook of his arm. Clutching onto him all sleepily, your fox ears twitched softly on top of your hair and your tails brushed gently against his waist repeatedly as the rhythm of his walking made them sway. You were still draped in his clothes, with his shirt bunched up around your thighs, his robe falling out from his embrace on either side of you, those wool socks still bunched up around your ankles, and your poor panties barely clinging onto your ankle as Severus carried you to bed.
Once there, Severus leaned over and slowly laid you down on his sheets. He meant to let you go now that you were safely lying on top of his bed, but you curled up around his arm and looked up at him.
“What? What are you staring at?” Severus asked you, none too kindly.
You continued to stare up at him curiously. It was odd, lying in his bed and hugging yourself to his arm like this. It almost felt as though you were a precious thing to him, though you knew full well that you weren’t. The thing was - while it was true that you couldn’t really imagine Lily with anyone other than James, in this moment you couldn’t help except wonder if this might be a glimpse of how Severus would have been with her – stern, yet soft; unforgiving, yet understanding; difficult, yet sturdy.
“What?” Severus pressed, slightly annoyed. “If you’re going to look at me like that, you must say something. Use your words, little one.”
You merely turned your head and hid your face in his hand, pressing your lips against his palm, to avoid answering that question.
Severus gave an impatient sigh, and he wrenched his hand away from you. He saw your fluffy fox ears twitch and then droop with disappointment, and your tails mirrored that mopey action, but you didn’t say anything to Severus.
However, the next thing that Severus did -  namely, to put his strong, broad hands on your thighs, push them open, and then jerk you forward to the edge of the bed - made you whip your head back and stare at him in surprise.
“What – What are you…? You’re not going to actually…?” Your voice trailed off in disbelief. For, in all of the times that you had spent with Severus, he had never made love to you. Never.
Severus glared down at you. In a short, rather peeved tone, he explained, “I believe I must. Even after tying you down and making you cum endlessly on my desk, you’ve still retained your ridiculous fox ears and tails. Normally, they would have gone away by now. But they haven’t tonight. My guess is that because the Fox took such overwhelming possession of your body that her human – well, I’m not sure it was entirely human, but human-looking – form appeared as your own physical appearance, satisfying you with only my fingers and mouth has only brought you back to yourself, but in fox form. To get rid of the fox form - ”
“Ah,” you breathed out softly, as Severus grabbed your spread-open thighs and yanked you until you were positioned you flush against his hips. Your eyes widened for you could feel Severus already through his trousers – stiff and hard and thick. You swallowed.
“Unless, of course,” Severus said, while watching your face carefully, “you prefer to stay like this?” He reached down and gripped your ears in his hands.
You shivered, and your tails shot up. “No!”
“Well.” Severus let your ears go. “That settles it then.”
You lay there, swallowing nervously over and over again. It’s been so long since I made love with anyone. And with Severus? Does that even make sense? But if I don’t, what if I stay in this form forever – with fox ears and little tails? I can’t let that happen.
Severus watched you as you thought very, very hard to yourself. Finally, he said quietly, “You’re overthinking this. But the question is simple – Do you want this?”
You hesitated. Do I want this…?
“Well – Well, yes, I s’pose so,” you whispered, stuttering a little at being asked so suddenly and straightforwardly. “I don’t want to remain in this form forever. Life would be rather difficult, don’t you think?”
“Well, in that case - ” Severus pushed down the front of his pants, and then he pulled his cock out. He was already fairly hard, but he took your wrist in his, and then he commanded, “Wrap your hand around my cock.”
You reached out, your slender fingers trembling a little in the moonlight. Your hand met Severus’ cock. You paused, feeling the weight of his cock in your palm. His cock is so… gorgeous, you thought unexpectedly. All thick and smooth… Honestly, you were tempted to put it in your mouth, and more - a tiny part of your mind wanted you to get on your knees and go down on him until you were drooling all over his cock.
You hid your face a little, so that Severus wouldn’t be able to read the desire written so evidently all over your face. Then, taking his cock in your hand, you began to stroke it, running your palms and fingers over its length, coaxing it to become even stiffer and thicker.
Severus’ breath caught. “Faster,” he told you.
You clasped your hand into a tight fist and then began to pump your hand up and down. “Like that?” you asked, a little breathlessly.
Severus gave you a short nod. His jaw clenched tightly, as he watched your little fist stroke the length of his cock so eagerly. Yes, he thought to himself, just like that. Keep going, little one. He was fighting not to moan for you, but his cock betrayed his feelings, anyways, as he became very hard for you.
Finally, he spat out, “That’s enough.”
Then, unable to wait any longer, Severus stepped closer to you, accidentally causing you to fall back onto his bed, and a soft fwump sounded out as your back hit the mattress.
“Ah, Sev…”
Severus ignored you, except to reach down with with one hand to lift your hips into the air slightly. With his other hand, he stroked his cock a few times, and then positioned himself at your entrance.
You still couldn’t quite believe what was happening. Not that you wanted to stop it, but… Are we really going to do this? After so many years of holding back… Will I finally feel Severus inside of me?
Severus took a deep breath. Then, he pushed himself in, inch by inch, as slowly as he could manage, so as not to hurt you – but still, all in one, slow push forward.
At first, you thought you could take it, but as Severus kept leaning forward, pushing you down into the bed (except for your hips, which he kept flush to his), and pushing his cock into you, you started to squirm because fuck, it’s too much to take all at once.
Reaching up, you grasped the sleeve of his shirt in your hand tightly. “Sev,” you whimpered faintly. “A-Ah, Sev, I t-think it’s – s’ too - ”
“Shush,” Severus told you harshly. “We haven’t even started, and you’re already a blubbering mess.”
You tried to keep quiet, but when Severus pushed into you further, your hand dropped from his sleeve to his stomach, and you pushed against his abs and bleated out feebly, “W-Wait, s’ too much already. S’ too thick.”
Severus sighed. Stopping, he paused to take your hands in his,. Then, he made you reach down and press lightly on your pussy lips, until you were holding open your little cunt for him.
“Sev…?” you mumbled uncertainly, feeling rather – well, rather on-display.
“You are too tight,” he agreed. “So you need to hold yourself open for me. Just like that. Hold that cunt open for my cock, until I’ve stretched you out enough.”
Your cunt throbbed lightly as his words played out in your mind. He really means to take me tonight… Your pussy thumped heavily, feeling the excitement rush through your veins.
Severus hesitated, feeling your already tight pussy squeezing him even more. “You want this, don’t you?”
“No,” you mumbled quietly. “I mean, I do want this, but not – not any more than you do.”
“Don’t lie to me,” he retorted at once. “Your cunt’s already all wet and pulsing on my cock, even though you can barely take me, even though I’m barely inside you. You can’t wait to be stuffed full, to be fucked absolutely dumb, to be cumming on my cock, can you?”
Your mouth fell open in shock at hearing Severus say such dirty things.
Severus smirked. “I’ll take that awe-struck look on your face as a ‘yes,’ little one.”
Your brow furrowed and you clasped your lips together, not wanting to answer either way. Instead, you turned your head to the side. You felt your hair fall over your face, and you let it remain like that, hiding your expression from Severus.  
Severus scoffed meanly at you. “Don’t tell me you’re shy now. With how much you’ve thrown yourself at me over the years, that would be truly absurd.”
A strange constellation of emotions was sparking across the dark night of your soul, treading a familiar pathway to the small sun that was your heart: a soft, turning fury at how Severus was speaking to you, linked to a flushed embarrassment because he wasn’t entirely wrong, chained to a steadfast defiance that served as the stronghold for your own dignity that rejected Severus’ words, yet shared space with a sense of fondness and gratitude that this tough-hearted man kept being there for you when you needed him most, entangled with a deep want to feel the pressure of his cock spreading out your pussy deep inside of you – and then, most puzzling of all, everything was overshadowed by a deep sense of familiarity and warmth for, without intending to, you and Severus had shared each other’s most vulnerable moments for neigh over ten years now, and all of your quarreling, rather than holding any malice, felt like a comfortable quarreling… And even now, the thought of him having you, as unbelievable as it was, also felt like a natural next step for the two of you. It honestly made your mind spin.
You bit your lower lip, thinking it through. Then, you made your decision. After all, why not? you thought. For years now, Severus and I have had these moments without any consequences. We both know that we don’t have feelings for each other, and neither of us are responsible for anyone else. There are no consequences. So, we should do as we damn well please.
Severus watched you turn around on the bed. You turned your back on him and hid your face in the pillow. He hesitated, wondering if he had pushed you too far, only to be surprised when you reached back of your own accord, spread out your pert ass and your tight pussy for him, and whispered, “Fine, Severus. Have me. Have me however you wish. I want it, too.”
Severus’ eyes traced the beautiful lines of your back. He paused momentarily to appreciate the curves from your waist to your hips, and then his eyes dipped down, and he found himself staring at your pretty ass and your flushed little cunt, already glistening with how much you felt you needed him.
No more words were spoken, but you felt Severus’ hands press into the mattress on either side of you. Then, leaning forward, Severus pushed himself inside of you once more, much more deeply this time.  
Perhaps it was a good thing that Severus couldn’t see your face, because as he slowly fucked his cock inside of you, your expression became quite lewd. Your eyes  squeezed shut while your mouth fell open and you panted quietly, but desperately into the soft pillow.
When Severus was just over halfway inside of you, he felt your thighs shiver, and your hands slipped. Severus immediately grabbed your hands and forced them back. Your hands grasped at your ass and pussy again, but you let out a little cry into his pillow, and then - your pussy suddenly clenched on Severus’ cock.
Severus groaned heavily, though he tried to keep how desperate he felt to himself. Because, fuck, your pussy felt heavenly all wrapped around his cock. Severus thought that if he had known from the beginning how warm and tight you were, the two of you would have spent the last ten years very differently. He might have never given you a moment’s rest.
Between classes, he might have sought you out, and (with your consent, of course), he would have pinned you down onto the nearest surface in your classroom, and he would have used this sweet little cunt of yours to his heart’s content every single day, and you’d have to stumble and fumble your way through your final classes of the day, with your pussy filled with his cum…
You suddenly felt Severus’ hands pressing down on your lower back, making you sink into the bed, but arch your back and lift your pussy up a little. Severus leaned into you again, and he tried to ease himself in further. You held your breath, trying hard to keep your moans in, but he’d only pushed in a little further when you gasped, and your fingers slipped away again.
Severus growled, trying to hide the fact that every time your pussy clenched on him like this, he honestly had to struggle not to cum because you were just that tight. “I said to fucking hold yourself open. Make your little cunt take my cock.”
With shivering hands, you fumbled your fingers all over your pussy and his cock, until you managed to gently press your pussy open again.
Severus let out a soft huff, when he saw how full your sweet little hole was of him. His cock was absolutely filling you up, pushing at your walls, and even making your thighs strain. He appreciatively ran his hands up and down your thighs for a few moments, as he waited for you to adjust to him.
But then, just as you thought you were starting to adjust to his size, Severus, unable to take it any longer, held your hips down – and then thrust. Not hard, mind you, but still – golden bells went off, clamoring loudly in your head, and you felt such a tight, intense burn flare up between your thighs.
“Ah! N-No!” you blurted out. Without meaning to, you abruptly clutched at Severus’ sheets on either side of your hips, balling up the soft fabric in your fists.
Severus, feeling you squirm on his cock, pulled out just a little, though he kept his cock stuffed inside of your pussy. With a loud sigh, he dragged your hands back for what felt like the hundredth time. “What did I just say? Damn it, do you never listen?”
You finally turned your head back to look at him. “Nngh – Sev, G-God… it’s so deep. C-Can’t believe you – you’re inside of me like this...”
Severus stared down at you, taken aback by how your eyes were misty and your face was so flushed already. “This is what you wanted,” he reminded you.
“I - Yes… Ah…” you moaned out, already starting to lose your sense of control. You had already been so exhausted from everything that had happened today, and now, you had no strength left to resist the pleasure that Severus’ cock, stretching out your tight hole, was promising you.
Severus let out as soft grunt, as he felt your pussy twitch. She keeps throbbing on my cock. She wants it so bad, doesn’t she? She wants it…
With that thought alone, Severus leaned down, pressing his body down on yours, before he snapped his hips forward, pushing his cock deep inside of your warm, wet pussy –
“Oh – my – G-God!” you stuttered out. Almost immediately, your pussy became absolutely soaked with your own cum. It felt so good to have a man take you this way again. It had been far too long.
Inside of you, the Nine-Tailed Fox, who had curled herself up and hidden behind all of her tails, in order not to overwhelmed you again, blinked open her eyes and purred softly, delighting in finally receiving the energy that she needed to truly thrive, and that you had been depriving her of for so many years now.
“Mm,” Severus breathed out against your neck. “You’re a little wetter now. Good, you can take me now.”
Severus began to fuck you steadily. He pounded into your cunt with steady, hard thrusts. Soon, the headboard began to rattle against the wall at a steady pace of thump, thump, thump – and your moans played out in time, too, going, “Ah, ah, ah!”
The way he’s thrusting into me, it’s so – so intense… Your hips were bouncing off of the mattress, but then his hips collided with yours and pushed yours back into the mattress again.
“B-Be more g-gentle,” you pleaded, even as your pussy was getting wetter and wetter with every thrust.
Severus tried to be gentler, but all he ended up doing was slowing down when he first entered you, only to unexpectedly thrust right at the very end. Ironically, he ended up fucking his cock even deeper inside of you, until the head of his cock was kissing your cervix over and over again.
“Ah!” A desperate, strangled huff left your lips. “ I s-said g-gentler…”
“I am being gentle. I can’t go any slower than this,” Severus panted, his own face contorted with the effort it took to keep from just full-out fucking your tight pussy. It was true that he was taking it slow. But, whether he realized it or not, with every stroke of his hips, Severus was making you take his cock from tip to balls, ending every stroke with his balls flush to your pussy.
That was why you were squirming under him like that, with your fluffy fox ears all alert and shivering and peeking out from your silver hair, because his cock was just so deep inside of you. And while he was taking it slow, he kept thrusting right at the end, and besides that, his pace was so unforgivingly steady. He wouldn’t let up at all; there was no respite from the incredible tension burning between between your legs.
Further, Severus’ sturdy chest pressing against your back, his heavy weight gently pressing your breasts and tummy into the mattress, but with his warm, broad hands pressed on your back, keeping you down, coupled with his strong hips pushing against yours made you feel as though there was only Severus Snape in the world – only him and the way he made love to you. Speaking of, the way he fucked you so purposefully – Merlin, he was truly making you his woman, wasn’t he? And in every sense of the word.
Honestly, it was just too much for your exhausted mind and your poor little pussy to comprehend, and you were so close to just losing all sense of reality and melting into Severus’ bed, and becoming perfectly pleased with being his little cumslut for the night…
Also, as Severus carried on trying his best to fuck you slowly, you started to realize that you were completely surrounded by Severus’ warmth and scent – in his bed, still (well, sort-of) wearing his clothes, with his robe and shirt flipped up onto your back and spilling out onto the bed on either side of you, and with his socks dangling around your ankles, tangled up with your flimsy cotton panties now, and you weren’t sure when, but Severus’ hands had slipped up towards your head and now his chest was caging you in against the bed now…
His warmth warmed you, and his scent - the warm, woodsy, and almost herbal scent of him – wafted into your mind, until you were lulled into a sense of drifting off peacefully. You could fall asleep like this – except for the fact that his cock was delving deep inside of you, making your pussy work for him and milk him, You wondered hazily where Severus went home for the summer and whether his house smelled like this, too. Maybe you’d like to visit someday, yes, maybe  someday, you could spend some time with him there and see what it was like…
“Visit where?” Severus’ harsh voice suddenly punctured your hazy dreamland, for you’d been moaning and mumbling away without even knowing it.
“N-Nothing,” you replied, a bit startled. “I mean, nowhere – ah, Sev, fuck, I swear you’re getting bigger inside me.”
It was true. Severus’ cock was getting stiffer and stiffer, because although he was pushing his cock into your warm, tight hole, he was holding back and unable to fully take you as he desired. Truthfully, if it had been anybody except Severus, anybody except the man who exuded and practiced an incredible level of self-control and focus, you’d likely be taking cock a lot harder than you were right now.
“Can you take more of me?” Severus muttered, his voice was taut with need. An unspoken ‘please’ whispered through the air, chasing after his heavy pants as he held himself back for you.
As Severus asked you, he kept rocking back and forth gently, keeping his cock inside of you, and neither of you could quite ignore the soft squelches that were coming from your wet, wet pussy. You blushed. You were definitely wet enough to take more… But you were a bit scared, for it’d been so long since you’d chased release like this.
You shifted and turned around in bed, so that you were on your back and looking up at Severus. The two of you gazed at each other for a moment. Severus’ eyes, as always, were dark and impenetrable, and his mouth was still pulled into his trademark frown, but there were other telltale signs that even he couldn’t hide – like how his chest was rising and falling so quickly, and how his brow was furrowed in intense concentration to keep from hurting you or doing anything you didn’t want…
Hesitantly, you reached over and pressed your hand against his cheek. “All right,” you whispered, “yes, I do want more – more of all, all of you.”
To your surprise, Severus wordlessly leaned into your touch a little. Severus sighed when he realized what he was doing. He hated that he was sinking into this tenderness with you. He hated that he was letting his guards down before you. But if he was, if there was tenderness, was it truly his fault? Feeling rather defensive, he retorted childishly, “From what I’ve seen so far, you’re being rather ambitious.
You rolled your eyes at him, recognizing his defensiveness and sensing that it had shattered whatever sweetness you’d manage to conjure up in that moment. But you shifted, opening your legs up for him again.
Severus kept himself hovering over you with one hand beside your head, pressing down onto the mattress, and with his other hand, he held your hips down. In that position, he pushed his cock back inside of your wet little hole.
You both breathed out a sigh of relief. But then, Severus started to build up a pace in earnest – and there were no sighs of anything from either of you, but just a fair amount of unwilling moans and restrained, but desperate gasps filling up the air between you two.
As sinfully wet as you were, your pussyhole was still so tight that Severus could feel you gripping onto the entire length of his cock, and you swore that you could feel exactly how deep and how wide his cock stretched you out as it plunged deep into your pussy repeatedly. Besides that, you felt how the tip of his cock always caught just at your pussyhole right before he pushed inside of you again.
You shivered with pleasure. With any last bit of internal resistance falling to pieces in your head, you confessed to yourself, Merlin, he’s so good at making love. He uses every inch of his cock, every time, pushing it all into my tight little hole, and -  fuck, it’s so hard to think when I feel him pushing into me like this…
In fact, Severus was, quite literally, pushing the breaths out of you, as he thrust his strong hips forward, making his cock delve roughly into your tight cunt. Receiving those hard thrusts, you shifted up the bed, thrust by thrust, until the top of your head finally bumped up against the headboard. Instead of placing a pillow or something between the top of your head and the headboard, Severus just trapped you down on the bed, using his arm as an anchor across your middle to keep your right where he wanted you, and then he started to fuck you harder, so that the headboard was now going thumpthumpthump –
Some word was spilling out of your mouth – you thought you were just gasping as your pussy was taking a rough, deep, steady pounding – but no, you kept calling Severus, “cruel, cruel, cruel…” Until he grabbed your chin, forced you to look at him, and tell him what you meant by that.
“Why are you saying that, little one?” he huffed out, annoyed by how you kept talking nonsense when he was making love to you, but also worried that he might be pushing you to your limits. “I’m not hurting you, am I?” But as he buried his cock deep inside of your waiting pussy, he whispered knowingly, “No, that can’t be it. You’re so very wet now. If anything, you want more, don’t you?”
“It’s like I said before,” Severus murmured, not realizing the irony of his now being the one speaking absolute nonsense to you. “You have the sweetest little pussy, it’s your head” – he gripped your hair hard in his hand and yanked your head back, making you gasp – “that gets you into trouble.”
“N-No, no trouble,” you whimpered, having a hard time speaking when your head was held back like that and you couldn’t breathe very well as Severus kept fucking you.
He pressed you for an answer. “Then what?”
“I just – ah - meant that – that…” You tried to hold back your confession, but then it came bursting out of you, like a startled sparrow taking flight, “Severus,” you moaned out, and your voice ached, dripping with all kinds of want, “it feels s-so g-good! Ah!”  
Severus stared at you in surprise, as you nearly sobbed, “So good, so g-good – uhn, fuck, yes, just like that, ah, a-ah, feels so good when it’s s-so deep inside me like that – oh God, I love your cock in me, love your cock in m’ pussy, S-Sev, please d-don’t stop – no, Sev, I said don’t stop, please – ah…! ”
“Don’t stop what? Stop babbling, and use your fucking words.”
“D-Don’t stop f-fucking m- nngh,” you moaned out, as Severus suddenly leaned forward. As his cock had already been buried deep inside of you, with his leaning forward, you could suddenly feel his cock could pressing up into your tummy.
“AH!” you yelped.
Severus shook his head at you a little. “If you can’t speak coherently, little one, don’t say anything at all.”
“How can I be quiet when y-you’re inside me l-like this? Ah!” you gasped loudly, as Severus jerked his hips back and forth again.
Honestly, Severus hated how you blubbered, absolutely hated it. Why couldn’t you finish your sentences? It wasn’t hard. But then, in his heart of hearts, Severus was well aware that actually, he loved it, he loved the way you turned into a scatter-brain when you were with him like this. He savored the knowledge that he could render you so helpless with want and warmth and lust.
“I said, shush,” he repeated, glowing with a secret pride at being able to scold you this way.
“Ah… I- I can’t just s-shush!”
Severus smirked. “Then you’ll have to take more cock – as your punishment.”
“What?” you asked, not understanding. A moment later, you cried out loudly, “Uhn! S-Severus! Ah, fuck!”
It was a good thing that Severus had cast Silencing and Noise Distortion Charms on his door, or else the whole castle might have heard your desperation and ecstasy as you were getting fucked hard by Severus Snape that night.
Because at that moment, Severus had sat up, grasped and lifted your hips off the bed, and then, pulled you down flush against him, so that literally, he was sheathed all the way inside of you. Holding you like that, he pulled out about halfway, and then thrust, harder than he ever had that night, inside of you.
For a moment, your hands fumbled thoughtlessly over Severus’ chest, until you closed your eyes and pressed your palms hard against his chest, as you felt his cock ram roughly right into your sweet spot again.
“No!” you burst out, not because you wanted Severus to stop, but because you could not believe how deep his cock was inside of you, and your mind had blanked out entirely, unable to comprehend in any rational sense the intense tension and pleasure that was coursing through your body, playing on your senses like an angel plucking at a taut harp chord. Golden shimmers seem to run up and down your body, teasing your nerves into an electric frenzy.
Severus paused, unsure if you were asking him to stop. However, the next moment, your hands dropped from his chest to his hips and you tugged wantingly at him, obviously indicating that you wanted him to fuck you harder, fuck you rougher, and fuck you now.
Severus complied. He started to bounce you up and down on his cock, while he was still thrusting inside of you. His cock slammed into your pussy so deep, pressing into sweet places hidden away deep inside your core.
Your ears were twitching frantically. At the same time, your hands, no longer able to hold onto Severus’ hips as he fucked you into ruins, scrabbled frantically at the headboard above you. You whimpered incoherently, “M-mm-mm-mmm!”
Severus’ moans also became a stream of low, thrumming hums as he kept fucking you. She’s taking me so well, he thought, watching how your tight, pulsing cunt was bouncing on his cock, swallowing up his entire length over and over again.
It made for a rather beautiful view, Severus thought, as your pussy was dripping wet. As your thighs kept colliding together, they both began to glisten wetly, too. Severus growled lowly, “Fuck, what a wet, naughty pussy you have, little one. You love taking cock, don’t you?” He panted briefly before he muttered at you, “You’re a right little slut.”
“No,” you bleated out again. But your pussy was throbbing away on his cunt already, and you couldn’t help but bounce your thighs against his, couldn’t help but want to give your needy cunt every inch of thick, hard cock you could get inside of you…
“Ah…” you breathed out. “Mmmm…”
As you relaxed just a little, your pussy softened for his cock, and you melted into the realm of pure, golden pleasure. Your hands slipped down the headboard and landed on the sheets, on either side of your head.
Severus saw the way you slowly rested back against the bed (except for your hips, which he was still holding up and you were still working to take his cock like a good girl), and he saw your abs stretch out in a rather lovely manner, elongating your torso so that your curves became very evident, and then, there were your soft breasts, bouncing prettily in time to your taking cock.
Severus’ voice became deadly soft, for he was a man whose voice became quieter and quieter as his thrusts became harder and harder, as he insisted, “You are. Don’t deny it.”
“W-What about you?” you huffed back. “Are you any better? Ah… A-Always insisting that you won’t make love to me, and now, h-having me in your bed and u-using me like this? I know you said you w-would – ah - save me, but this goes beyond that. Uhn, f-fuck, yes… N-Now, you’re just making love to me, Sev. But d-doesn’t that  - ah, ah, ah - make you a s-slut, too? Huh?” But even though you were pushing back against him, you, too, shared his soft, quiet tone. Instead of being aggressive and actually arguing, as you two undoubtedly always had, it was more about pushing the other to admit that they felt something for you – not friendship and certainly not love, but some kind of empathy, compassion, or understanding, that had actually sprouted its first tiny roots back when the two of you were at Hogwarts as students, both loners and outcasts and both quiet and focused people who sought intelligence beyond just books. You had never been friends, of course, or even thought of each other beyond passing glances, but even in that manner, you had both been alike – lost and hidden away in your own worlds.
And now, here you were, still hidden away from the rest of Hogwarts, still tormented by the idea of never fitting in and your dreams never really living up what you imagined them to be, and both having lost, in some manner, the ones you have loved most…
Yes, the truly inexplainable thing was that there something seemed to be happening here: unfolding, not as events did the real world, logically and quickly, but unfolding as events in a dream world unfolded. It was as if a strange tumult of foreboding happiness rolled in through the door of another universe and captured both you and Severus in its bizarre typhoon. Consequently, in this moment, it felt as though the two of you were wrapped up and living in an alternate universe. And Severus could imagine, if only for a brief moment, that this was home for him – that every night, when he returned to bed, you would be there, waiting for him, dressed in his clothes, and then, when he would come to bed to meet you, you’d spread yourself open, just like you had tonight, with your small hands beautifully resting atop your thighs and then spreading your pussy open, before pleading for him to take you just like this, asking him to make your little pussy all warm and full – and he would, Severus would. He would give you wanted, would make you feel the way you wanted to be felt, and if that included feeling that you were his, he would make damn sure to give that to you.
A muffled growl left Severus as he leaned over and bit your neck, softly clamping his teeth down on your soft skin.
“Ah,” you breathed out, feeling his teeth sink softly into your skin. He covered your neck with soft bites, then your shoulders, and finally, he sucked and bit gently at your breasts, too.
“Mmm,” you moaned softly.
“So sensitive,” Severus murmured.
“Play with my nipple more, Sev,” you begged, in a soft, hushed voice. “Put your tongue on it, please. Want your mouth on – on me… Yes…” Your hands snuck into his hair and you gently tugged him forward, making him press his mouth against your breasts again.
“You’re a sweet little thing when you’re all captured like this. I imagine that’s what foxes are like, too,” Severus murmured, voice a bit muffled as he sucked on your breast. “Free-spirited in the wild, but when they recognize their master, they know to be good. Isn’t that right?”
“I wouldn’t know, because you’re not my Master,” you fired back, not wanting to be pulled in by any of his taunts. Yet, you wondered, can I really deny him so straightforwardly? Even now, you realized that he was hunched over you in what looked like an incredibly possessive manner, with his abs all tight from the effort of leaning over you, so that he could suck at your breasts and fuck your pussy at the same time.
Severus let out a disappointed sigh. “Of course not. That’s not the point,” he muttered, while roughly biting and tugging at your nipple and making you gasp, “Trust me, I would – nngh, still so tight – I would n-never let a disobedient pet like you roam around under my name.”
“What d’you m-mean?” you whispered. “Ow, Sev, don’t bite so much. It h-hurts.”
“Well…” Severus paused, distracted momentarily from lavishing your breasts with attention when he felt his cock push up against your cervix again, and he took a moment to moan appreciatively, “fuck, such a good little pussy, swallowing up my cock so well,” before continuing to explain, “I’d keep you in my bed and – uhn - make sure to fuck you into submission before letting you go anywhere.”
You scoffed, though with some difficulty, as you had to make room for the haughty little sound amidst all of your frantic panting. “Oh, r-really?” you huffed out. “And you t-think I’d let you do that to me?”
“We’re already doing just that,” Severus whispered into your ear. “Don’t you see? This is me taming you, putting your little empty, anxious brain at ease, by stuffing your tight little cunt full of me, you little slut.” Then, he let out a heavy moan. “Uhn…”
You wanted to respond – but you couldn’t anymore. The heat and scent of sex was creating an impenetrable fog around you both, but also infiltrating your mind and making your thoughts go all hazy. In this strange, misty world, rather like the inside of a crystal ball, it felt like time was moving more slowly and everything was weighted. You thought fuzzily that you probably felt this way because of the manner in which Severus made love you – He was working your body hard, but at the same time, every thrust and touch was so controlled that it all felt dreamlike – slow, heavy, yet strangely romantic and touching. Even now, the words he had just spoken – they had been degrading, yes, and you wanted to set him straight and say, “no, you’ve got it wrong; it’s not about taming me, I’m already free and I always will be,” but in the subtext and amidst the low humming moans, you could sense that there was something deeply tender and protective about the way Severus was with you and speaking to you tonight.
And honestly, you barely heard Severus’ words, because he was reaching your sweet spot so well, and pressing on it incessantly, so that there was a slow build-up of some intense, golden, thrumming running through your body. It had started in your pulsing little pussy, gone up to your soft, warm tummy, and then ran up your body all the way to your head, until all you were thinking was yes, yes, yes, please, please, please – and Severus wasn’t letting you down, no, he kept going, kept fucking you just as you wanted, just as your cute little cunt was begging for.
Your moans became higher and higher-pitched. Tears welled in your eyes, so you threw your arm over your face and hid your expression again. But Severus could still watch your little ears curl up and then flop softly on your head as he took you repeatedly, claiming your tight little cunt for himself.
Thumpthumpthumpthumpthump went the headboard, broken only by your labored moan– “uhn!” – before it went back to its steadfast rhythm of thumpthumpthump.
You felt yourself about to cum. Severus, too, could feel your cunt throbbing wetly and heavily on his cock. In fact, your pussy walls were tightening around his cock, squeezing his cock like he’d never felt before.
You wanted to warn Severus, but couldn’t manage words at the moment. So, you tried to close your legs, but you found that you couldn’t because Severus’ hips were still in the way. You held your breath and tried to control yourself, but you couldn’t stop the wave of pleasure about to crest in your tummy.
Severus hissed, sucking in his breath through his teeth. He couldn’t believe how tight you’d gotten all of a sudden. Her little pussy’s throbbing away on my cock, pulsing all heavily – Why?
But Severus didn’t have long to question this, for in the very next second, he suddenly felt you arch off the bed. “Mmm!” Your cry ripped through the air, followed quickly by a wretched gasp, “Ah!” You threw your arms around his neck and hugging him with all of your might, you dragged him back down onto the bed with you. Severus hissed softly when he felt your fingernails dig into him, pressing tiny crescent marks into his skin.
“Ah!” you burst out again, crying out with no restraint whatsoever. For you were cumming. Yes, you were cumming for him - and all over him.
Severus’ eyes widened in awe as he felt your warm, white cream spurt from your tight cunt, which was still wrapped around his cock, and then began to drip down his balls.
“I-I’m sorry,” you whimpered, still trying desperately to close your legs. Your tummy buckled over and you moaned, all curled up for a second. You hugged onto Severus even tighter, sobbing into his chest as you came.
But all Severus said was, “Shush.” Only, this time, it sounded kind, as if he were reassuring you that you had done well to cum all over him and that he didn’t care how messy you made him.
Severus let you hold onto him while you finished cumming. You kept holding onto his shoulders for support and moaning lowly in his ear, with your knees were pressed up hard against his sides. Finally, Severus felt you relax a little and your fingernails disappeared from his back and your knees stopped pressing so hard against his obliques as your body finally released…
Severus waited a beat. Then, he gently yet firmly pulled away from you. He wanted to have a look at you. You resisted a little, trying to keep your arms around him, until finally, Severus grabbed your wrists, and then, once he had pulled away, he yanked your hands together and held them down, pressing them down into your soft tummy, holding you hostage as he examined you.
You were sporting bite marks on your neck now, and your breasts were pink from how much he had sucked and kissed them, and with your legs still so beautifully splayed out for him, Severus could see how you’d cummed so beautiful for him, with your pussy throbbing as soft, sweet white cream slowly showed itself.
You hesitated, wondering if Severus had pulled away because he’d somehow been disgusted by you. But his voice had been so kind…
“I’m sorry,” you whispered, rather embarrassed. “I didn’t mean to – to cum so hard. Or to cream like that. I just couldn’t control it anymore - ”
“I know,” Severus said curtly, cutting you off. “You never can control yourself.” He reached down and pressed his thumb against your clit.
“Ah, w-what are you d-doing?”
Severus watched as your pussy twitched, and more white cream came out and graced your throbbing little pussyhole. Severus didn’t know why seeing your pussy filled with your cum affected him so much, but it did.
Your embarrassment, which had been growing ever since you came by creaming all over his cock, right in the middle of his fucking, finally reached an unbearable point, and you made to close your legs.
But Severus reached up, grabbed your knees, and stopped you. “I told you already – stop being shy. It’s too late now. Rather, will you allow me to keep going?”
You paused. “You – You still want to take me? Even with my pussy all messy like this?”
“Yes. Especially with your pussy messy like this.”
You blinked. Then, a blush spread over your cheeks as you regarded Severus in awe. “Really?”
“Yes. Really. So keep those legs apart, little one,” Severus told you, his voice noq quite raspy and harsh with want.
You compiled, slowly opening your legs all the way again.
Severus groaned when he saw your cum-coated pussy. He debated whether or not he wanted to go down on you or not, but the desire to fuck you with his cock won out. Severus positioned himself once more and then he continued to fuck you softly.
“Mmm,” you breathed out, rather pleased with what was happening. It felt so good to be taken so softly after such an intense orgasm.
But Severus’ mind was going in a different direction, reaching a realization he hadn’t quite grasped yet, as he thought, Yes, fuck, I love seeing my cock coated in her cum, in the signs of her undeniable pleasure. Severus kept going, kept pushing himself inside of you until your little pussy was ringed in your own white cream – and then – a low, beastly growl erupted out of him, as he realized, I want to cum inside of her. Seeing my cum inside of her - That’s what I truly want.
“Mm, mm, mm -  ah!” Your soft moans suddenly cut off as Severus suddenly pushed your legs up, so that your knees were pushed into the mattress by your head.
Leaning over you once more, Severus pressed you down into a little ball, all curled up beneath him, with your pussy lewdly presented to him. Holding you down like that, Severus fucked your pink cunt until it was blushing a soft red – and then, with a rumbling growl that surprised even you, he came – first, inside of you, but then, when he abruptly realized what he was doing, he tried to pull out, only to end up cumming all over your pussy and (because of the position you were in) even on your face. You gasped softly as warm ropes of cum hit your mouth and chin.
Horrified, Severus mumbled out the first apology you’d ever heard him say to you: “Sorry! I – Shit, sorry, it wasn’t intentional – I would never - ”
You flicked your tongue out and caught all of the cum that you could on your lips. You gave yourself a moment to taste, with curiosity, the salty taste of his cum before you swallowed. Then, you whispered, “It’s fine, Severus. It’s all right.”
Severus shook his head, but you repeated, while smiling a little, “Shush, Sev.”
Hearing that familiar word, Severus finally calmed down a little.
“Yeah,” you murmured, while you gazed down at yourself, to see your pussy filled with his cum, mixed with your cream. “You don’t have to worry about anything. To tell you the truth, it’s what I wanted. I would have been disappointed if you hadn’t. After all, we’ve held back for over ten years…”
Severus remained motionless for a minute. Then, he spoke softly, and tiredly, “You should clean yourself up.”
You nodded in agreement. “All right.”
You went to the bathroom, where you performed anti-pregnancy spells on yourself and cleaned yourself up in the bath. Afterwards, you wandered out and picked up that silver robe that your own clothing had transformed into. You found it on the floor, near Severus’ bed. You paused, wondering if you should slip into it.
“Don’t.” Severus, who had been sitting upright at the foot of the bed, saw you contemplating whether or not to put on the robe. “It might make you feel cold again.”
“But I don’t have anything else to wear.”
“You can stay in my clothes.”
“I’ll wash your clothes for you before I give them back,” you promised.
“However you like.”
You folded the robe neatly and put it on top of Severus’ armchair.
Severus spoke again, to tell you, “It’s nearly dawn.”
You went over to where Severus was standing, for that was where one was directly facing the slit in the curtains. You turned your head to glimpse the first, soft rays of light creeping into the room through that narrow slit.  
As you turned your head, Severus noticed that – “Your ears and tails are gone.” He reached out and gently turned your head, so that you were looking at him. Examining you, he murmured, “No frost, either. In fact, your face is warm. You’re still… blushing.”
Your eyes met Severus’. Without speaking, he read in your eyes what you were thinking: It’s because we made love.
Severus swallowed. Quickly letting go of your chin, he muttered, “You’re definitely human again.”
You didn’t reach for him, but you said, as softly and warmly as could, “Thank you, Severus.”
Severus didn’t reply, but he didn’t protest either when you lay back down on his bed again. He watched as your eyes fluttered shut.
“We have a staff meeting in less than an hour.”
“Mm…”
“I won’t wake you,” he warned you.
“Sure, sure…” You dozed off at once, exhausted to your very bones after the many unexpected adventures in the past forty-eight hours.
*     *     *     *     *      *     *     *     *     *
When you startled awake, you found yourself still in Severus’ chambers – but all alone. You tiredly rubbed your eyes as you sat up. I feel like I barely slept. But wasn’t there something I was supposed to wake up for? Hm… Then, you remembered – “Ah!”
But you couldn’t just run over to the staff meeting now, you were still wearing Severus’ clothes and no pants or panties. With a groan, you grabbed the silver robe off of Severus’ armchair and pulling it over your head to try to hide your face and wrapping it around your waist as well for security, you ran off to your chambers as quickly as you could.
*     *     *     *     *      *     *     *     *     *
“Good morning,” Professor McGonagall greeted you, her eyebrow arched sternly at you as you entered the staff meeting room five minutes late.
“Good morning,” you croaked back.
Snape looked at you with deep disapproval. “Late again?”
Catching the smirk playing around his lips, you glared at him. “Shut up.”
McGonagall shot you both a look, and you hurriedly shut up yourself.
As Dumbledore informed the staff of recent notices, you subtly tried to nap, despite the fact that you were standing up. You closed your eyes and let your head nod away on its own time…
I’m so sleepy… Thank Merlin I was able to return to my fully human form, but… Goodness, I’m tired today… Maybe I can sneak a nap under my desk during classes… Hm…
“ – our our newest addition to the staff, Defense Against the Dark Arts professor – Remus Lupin!”
Your eyes shot wide open. What!? Did I just fall asleep? What was that name I just heard? I must be dreaming, because it can’t be – it can’t be –
You frantically scanned the staff room, despite the fact that there were only about thirty people there. You searched for him, for Remus, without really believing that he would be there. Only – your jaw fell – there he was.  
Remus had stumbled forward and was humbly bowing his head in little dips over and over again, as the rest of the staff applauded in welcome.
Your heart skipped a beat – or several, actually. Because you had momentarily forgotten how to breathe. An unexpectedly and unjustifiably intense sense of thrill flooded your veins. Adrenaline, you immediately recognized.
Oh no, not good. Especially after what happened yesterday night with the Obscurial, my soul and body are vulnerable to possession by the Nine-Tailed Fox. But I can’t let Remus see my fox form. I can’t!
It didn’t even cross your mind that Remus was honestly the least of your worries, given that the entire staff of Hogwarts was standing there. But you didn’t care a rat’s ass about any of them. It was Remus that made your heart gallop like a young, wild beast.
Calm yourself, the Fox whispered uncomfortably. I can feel your soul calling for my power. I’m trying not to give it to you, but it’s tough. We’re both still weak and recovering from our encounter with that Dark Spirit.
Right, you replied. Then, forfeiting all sense of grace, you fled the room with all of the speed you could muster, galloping wildly just as your heart was because there he was – Remus Lupin, your heart whispered, and your entire soul went into disarray and suddenly, you were sent back seventeen years. In your mind and in your heart, you were a mere fifth-year in Hogwarts all over again, waiting eagerly for a certain brown-haired, hazel-eyed boy in his soft, patched-up jumpers to come and join you in your spot, where you allowed yourself to fall in love twice: first, with the idea of the Nine-Tailed Fox, as a mythical solution to achieve your desire for freedom, power, and beauty, but second, with the very real person of Remus John Lupin, with his uncertain, but gentle gaze; his unfailing empathy and kindness; his quirky sense of humor; his adoration, accompanied by a sense of doubt, for future-oriented studies like Astronomy, Astrology, and Divination; and then - all of those strange, unexplained scars that didn’t match the gentle manner in which he moved about the world.  
*     *     *     *     *      *     *     *     *    
You were very careful going up to your classroom the next day. You ignored students’ curious glances as you hid behind hallways and peeked out of corners. You also continued to wear your cloak, with its hood up, in case you were caught off guard and your ears and tails found fit to pop out again.
Reports of “a very short dementor” reached McGonagall. She tracked you down, only to be very irate when she ripped your hood back and discovered it was you.
“What are you doing, Professor?” she asked you shortly, folding her arms impressively over her chest. “Acting like a criminal in broad daylight!”
You blinked as the mid-morning sunlight abruptly flooded your vision. “Um,” you replied, “well, since I’m doing this in broad daylight, doesn’t that tell you that I’m not a criminal?”
McGonagall’s nostrils flared. Suddenly, you were very grateful that Professors couldn’t give other Professors detention. Deeming it was best to get a move on, you flashed her an apologetic grin before scurrying away, up to your classroom.

After you finished your classes for the day, you went down to Hagrid’s hut. You let out a sigh of relief as you left the castle. It was nice to be out in the fresh air and out of the castle. No chance of bumping into Remus out here, you thought to yourself.
When you were about thirty yards away from Hagrid’s hut, you thought you could hear voices coming from inside the hut.
“Yes. Thank you, Hagrid.”
“O’ course.” Hagrid’s front door opened. “Come down anytime, yeh hear?”
You skidded to a soft stop on the stony path and immediately began to turn around. Unfortunately, the sound of the few loose stones you’d kicked up scattered brightly before you.
“Oh! Good timin’!” Hagrid exclaimed, noticing you. “I’ve a favor to ask of you.”
You closed your eyes and said a quick prayer – although for what, you weren’t entirely sure. Then, you slowly turned back around. As calmly as you could, you replied, “Sure, Hagrid. What is it?”
“One of the baby thestrals ran away from its mum this afternoon,” Hagrid explained. “And you know, what with the strange things happenin’ recently, I thought maybe you wouldn’t mind if you tried to go lookin’ for the poor foal before he gets into any trouble.”
Meanwhile, standing beside Hagrid, Remus Lupin was politely looking at your feet, with his hands clasped in front of him.
“Yes, sure,” you confirmed, impatient to get out of there. “I’ll go right away.”
“Ah, but wait one mo’, Professor,” Hagrid said. “Can you see thestrals or no?”
You shook your head.
Hagrid frowned. “It might be tricky to capture the foal then, and dangerous to you as well. I’d give you Fang, but he tends to scare away the foals.”
You shrugged. “I know thestrals are attracted to the smell of blood. I can simply cut my hand a little.”
“No.” It was the first time Remus had spoken up, but his voice was firm. “There’s no need for you to hurt yourself. I can see thestrals. I’ll go with you.”
“That would make me feel better. Not that you aren’t capable, but you never know what the forest will bring you in the dead of night,” Hagrid said sagely. “I’m sorry, Professor Lupin. I’d go meself, but I’ve got to… Well… Something happened with Buckbeak today, and I figured I best go see him, give him a ferret or two.”
“Not at all, Hagrid.” Remus graciously bowed his head towards Hagrid before he glanced over at you. “Well,” he said, putting his hand out to gesture at the forest, “Shall we?”

Meanwhile, back at the castle, Severus had finally booted the students of his last class out of his classroom. Exhausted, he made his way to his chambers, eager to sleep. But just before he fell into bed, he pulled out his wand. Closing his eyes, he scoured his mind for not just the happiest, but the lightest and most peaceful memory…
Many, many years ago, back when he was a little boy, Severus discovered the magic of Potions. His father had gone out of town for a business trip. That day, his mother, Eileen Prince, had brought out her old Potions kit. “Severus, look,” she whispered. “Look what happens when I do this.” She poured a bubbling, red liquid into a vial containing a tiny drop of silvery, cloudy liquid.
Severus gasped as a mini explosion of silver and red sparks erupted from the vial. His mother laughed as she watched her young son run around, trying to catch the sparks in his little hands. When he had finally exhausted himself, Eileen went over to her son and pulled him into her arms.
“Mummy, what was that?”
“It was a Sparks Potion. I prepared it for you. I mixed Bloodroot and Frog’s Spleen together a few weeks ago to make the red liquid – Flammable Potion, and then I tipped it into Mercuric Elixir today. That’s the silver drop. It contains animatic properties, you see, and will react with just about anything. You need to be very careful with it, but when used correctly, it can bring about amazing results, as you just saw.”
“Wow…”
“It was for your birthday. Happy Birthday, my love.”
Severus frowned. He looked up at his mother. “But, Mummy, Daddy said birthdays weren’t important. Remember, he got mad the last time we celebrated?”
“I know, sweetheart. But birthdays are important. Especially yours?”
“‘Specially mine? Why?”
“Because you’re my son,” Eileen told him. She gathered him up in her arms and whispered lovingly, “My little Prince. No matter what your father says, that’s who you are and don’t you forget it.”
Clutching his wand, Severus whispered fervently, “Expecto Patronum.”
Whoosh.
Severus’ eyes flashed open – and he watched in complete awe as a silver doe appeared before him.
For once, Severus’ eyes were not impenetrable, but totally vulnerable, as he fell to his knees, bowed his head, and cried for the days long past, for the days we cannot get back...

You Have Me - Bakugou Katsuki
Dad!Bakugou x Babysitter!reader
Warnings: Dad!Bakugou, Fingering, 18+, Cursing, pining, cheating, daddy kink (cuz duh)
Request: Dad Bakugou in love with his babysitter. She’s younger than him but still over legal drinking age and Bakugou is not too old. I just wanna see how he’d go about this whole situation ESPECIALLY if he was already married.
BAKUGOU’S MASTERLIST
“F-Faster Katsuki!” You said as Bakugou pounded into you on the kitchen island.
“Shit baby...fuck, you like that shit? Like how daddy fucks your sweet cunt?” He teased as he hit your cervix. “You gonna give me another brat? Huh? C’mon Teddy Bear I know you can do it~”
His hand traveled to your clit as he toyed with your pretty pussy. Your legs shook as he worked his magic and you clenched around his cock.
“Ohh~ ‘M gonna cum!” You cried out. Your hands clawed at Katsuki’s back as he sucked his teeth in due to the stimulating pleasure.
“Do it. Cream all over my cock baby.” You obeyed his every command as you did what you were told and spilled all over him. Your orgasm didn’t stop him as he continued to ram into you. He sped up as he chased his own release and threw his head back.
“F-Fuck! Fuck baby,” he leaned down close to your face as he used his hand to grab your chin. “I love you. You fuckin’ understand me?” He said and brought a smack to your ass. “I love you Y/N.”
His voice grew whiny as his thrust became sloppy. You both were a moaning mess until Katsuki met his climax and filled you with his release. Right as he came, his lips met yours for a rough and passionate kiss that you both desperately moaned into. He continued to slowly thrust into you to push his cum deeper inside your womb as you tugged at his hair. Your lips finally separated as Katsuki stopped his thrusts. He rested his forehead against yours as you both held heavy breaths. He grinned at your dazed eyes and grew excited. He was sure he done enough to get you pregnant. He saw your soft, angelic features and listened carefully as you began to speak.
“Katsuki...it’s time to wake up.” You said with a smile.
“Huh?” Bakugou said in confusion as he lifted his face away from yours. You sat up and shoved his shoulder as your voice began to fade out.
“Wake up! ....Wake up Katsuki. Katsuki! ....Katsuki!”
“Katsuki! Wake up!”
The 25 year old man had his eyes shot open as he flinched the slightest bit. He awoke to his bitch of a wife smacking his upper body to get him to come to.
“Ugh, the hell do you want?” He groaned as he layed back down in bed.
“I want you to get out of bed! We’re supposed to be going to Aki’s party today! You owe me since you didn’t want to buy me those heels!” She complained. Bakugou rolled his eyes at the gold digger and shooed her away with his hand.
“Go by your damn self. I have a meeting today. I’m not going to one of your shitty friend’s stupid ass parties. And also, I don’t owe you shit. I’m not dropping three grand on a pair of heels for some bitch.” He said with his eyes still shut. He heard his wife gasp at his insults and he could already imagine her dropped jaw.
“Excuse me, but I’m not some bitch. I’m your wife-“
“Who’s a bitch.” Bakugou interrupted. He opened his piercing, crimson eyes as he watched her tilt her head to the ceiling and crossed her arms.
“Hmph! Fine then! I’ll go by myself!” She said and marched out the room and out the house. Bakugou groaned as he rolled onto his back and threw his arms over his eyes.
“Good. That’s what I wanted. Stupid bitch.” He said to no one in particular. He sighed as he held on to the memory of the sweet dream he was having before his wife had interrupted. The sweet dream of him completely indulging himself in Y/N L/N, his son’s babysitter.
Was it wrong for him to have these thoughts about Y/N while being married? Yes. But did Bakugou care? Not at all. He was so drawn to Y/N it was like love at first sight for him. Besides, he didn’t love his wife anyway. They dated for a year and the whole time, Bakugou completely hated it. Truthfully, Bakugou dated her for her looks and the sweet facade she put up, but when her true self came through, Bakugou knew he was done with her. Unfortunately, before he had the chance to break up with her, his son Katsuo, was conceived. So when the news of her pregnancy became known to him, the toxic couple decided to tie the knot and get married. What a poor decision.
Bakugou decided enough time had been spent in bed and so he got up and got ready. Once he was fresh and clean he checked the time and saw it was 8:30. He made breakfast and prepped the table. Once he was done, he walked to his son’s room to wake up the little guy.
Katsuo Bakugou. Katsuki’s precious son. Even though he wasn’t planned, Katsuki loved his dear boy regardless. It’s sad to say the same thing can’t be said with the boy’s mother. Leiko Hotashi, Katsuo’s mother, seemed to have no love for the child, or anyone other than herself and money. She complained the entire pregnancy, she didn’t smile at the first sight of him when he was born, and she didn’t bother to be around the little guy either. Katsuo basically grew up without a mother’s love but he turned out just fine because Katsuki’s love was more than enough. The constant absence of his mother didn’t bother him and the child didn’t seem to care whether she was around or not. It’s sad really, but what can you do?
Bakugou walked into the room and saw a tuff of blonde hair that resembled his own. He walked to his ‘mini me,’ and shook the 5 year old awake.
“Katsuo...wake up bud. C’mon.” Katsuki said in a surprisingly soft voice. He was greeted with a pair of red eyes that copied his own and he smiled down at his carbon copy. “C’mon bud, breakfast is ready.”
Katsuo sat up in bed and yawned as he rubbed one of his eyes with his tiny fist. Katsuki smiled at the cute sight. “G’morning dad!”
“Heh. Good morning bud now let’s. Go. We got a nice breakfast waiting for us,” Bakugou said as he picked up his son in his arms. Katsuo giggled in excitement as Katsuki walked down the stairs and went into the kitchen.
The two sat down at the island as they enjoyed their breakfast and Katsuki listened to his son babble on about nothing. It was a peaceful morning for the most part. Katsuki’s morning always consisted of his crazy wife being a nag but other than that, he enjoyed his mornings with his son.
“So, I have to go to work soon and Mom is gone, but Y/N is coming by in a bit to watch you.” Katsuki explained to the young boy who seemed to light up at the mention of your name.
“Y/N’s coming?! Yay!” The boy shouted. Katsuo loved you. You’ve been his babysitter for 2 years and you already had the child (and his father) wrapped around your finger. Without knowing it, you showered the boy in motherly love, something that he never really got to experience. As we already stated, Bakugou felt drawn to you as if it was love at first sight, but seeing the way you interacted with his son just sealed the deal for him.
The two continued their meal and when they were done, Katsuki had the child wash up and get ready for your arrival. He cleaned up in the kitchen and by the time he was done, you knocked on the door. Bakugou felt his heart race at the knowledge of your presence and before he ran to the door, he stopped infront of a mirror to check himself. He fixed his hair and adjusted his clothes to fit more comfortably and then ran to the door. Before opening it, he placed his hand on the knob, took a breath, and then pulled the door open to be blessed with the sight of your beauty. “Y/N! Hi!”
“Heh, hey Katsuki.” You said as you stood at the door with a smile. You weren’t dumb. You always noticed how nervous Bakugou was whenever you were around. His crush was a little obvious to you and even though you felt something for the handsome hero, you never made any advances for the man. He was married and had a kid! There’s no way any sort of relationship was happening. Luckily, a very flirtatious friendship blossomed between you two and you grew so close that you both reached a first name basis.
Y/N L/N. A beautiful woman at the pretty age of 23. She was not only beauty, but she was brains, strength, and grace. She was a fierce and charming lady who had poison on her tongue but a fluffy heart of gold. The lot of you may be thinking that a 23 year old woman should be doing more than babysitting, but Y/N is still fairly young. And besides, babysitting was just a side gig. You had an actual career and owned your own dance studio but ever since you met the Bakugous, you just couldn’t give up on the little job.
“...Umm...Katsuki. Are you gonna keep staring or are you gonna let me in?” You said with a chuckle. Bakugou embarrassingly snapped out of his trance before speaking.
“Right! Uh, come in,” he said and stepped aside for you to enter. You nodded with a smile and walked into the large home, took a seat on the soft couch and you waited for Katsuo to come down. In the meantime, Katsuki always took the opportunity to make small talk with you.
“So..how’ve you been? It’s been awhile since you came over to watch Katsuo.” Katsuki said as he took a seat that was pretty close to you.
“Yeah, sorry about that. The studio’s just been pretty hectic with more clients coming in. Even before I came here, I dropped off some choreography for a heels class that I’m teaching tonight.” You said. The mention of your upcoming class made Katsuki a little excited. Your studio commonly filmed classes to post online for publicity and when Katsuki found videos of you dancing/teaching a heels class, he couldn’t help but constantly admire the view.
“Still coulda’ came by to at least say hi or something,” he said with a gruff but obvious sarcastic voice. “S’been forever since I- I mean since Katsuo saw you.”
“Relax dummy,” you said with a giggle as you playfully slapped his arm. “I’ve only been gone a week.”
Bakugou pretended to be in pain as he placed a hand over his chest, slumped in his seat, and scrunched his face. “Ouch. Don’t remind me. Like I said, it’s been forever.”
You both laughed at his little joke as he sat up straight again. You looked around the house and after seeing a few family pictures hanging, you decided to bring up another topic. “So..where’s the Mrs.?”
“Tch. She’s out at some random party.” He said as he stretched out his neck. You raised your brow and smirked at his answer.
“Oh? Is somebody upset he got left behind?” You teased which made Bakugou cackle a bit.
“Yeah right! Like I care about that nag. She could leave for an eternity and I wouldn’t care and neither would the kid. Besides, it’d just give me the opportunity to get a little closer to you.” He said as he leaned in a little closer and you did the same.
“Oh really?” You said with a smile.
“Really.” He replied back with a face that mimicked your own. Soon enough, his hand found a place on your inner thigh and gave it a squeeze. Your lips slightly separated with a tiny gasp and Bakugou definitely took notice of that. Things would’ve continued if it wasn’t for the sudden voice of a child.
“Y/N!” Katsuo said in excitement as he took notice of you on the couch. You and Bakugou jumped and quickly separated before the child could even get an idea of what was about to happen. You were quick to stand and greet the small boy as you crouched down to his level and gave him a hug.
“Hi Katsuo!” You said with your award winning smile. Katsuki watched from the couch as Katsuo went on and on about all the things he wanted to do today and the only thing that appeared in his head was a new family picture but with you in it instead of Leiko.
“Alright bud,” Bakugou said as he got up from the couch, walking to the two. “I gotta get to work but enjoy your day with Y/N, okay? And be good.” Bakugou said as he ruffled his boy’s blonde hair.
“I’m always good, dad!” The boy pouted as he swatted away his father’s hand. You laughed at their interaction and Bakugou chuckled before kissing the crown of his son’s head and walking to the front door.
“Bye Katsuo!” He said from the exit. You walked him to the exit and before he left he turned to you. He checked to make sure his son wasn’t watching before making his move. He grabbed your chin with his fingers to make you face him and softly spoke. “And I’ll see you later tonight, beautiful.”
You smiled and rolled your eyes at his compliment then said your thanks. You expected him to leave after that and so you tried to walk back to Katsuo but before you could, Katsuki pulled your wrist, grabbed your chin again, and pecked your cheek before exiting and slamming the door shut. You stood with a shocked expression as you felt blood rush to your cheeks.
Although you knew you felt something special for Katsuki, you knew he was married. And you weren’t no homewrecker! Even though some may see it as a harmless little peck on the cheek, you couldn’t help but feel guilty for his growing affections towards you. You sighed a bit before calming down and walking to the blonde boy waiting for you in the living room. You were going to enjoy your time with Katsuo but the return of his father stirred up a little confusion in your chest.
Hours passed. When you arrived it was 9:30 a.m. Now, it’s 10:00 p.m., and you expected Bakugou to be home soon. You didn’t really expect to see Leiko. Whenever Katsuki mentioned she was out partying, she never came back while you were around. It’s not that she was purposely avoiding you, she just tend to stay out into late hours of the night.
Katsuo was supposed to be in bed half an hour ago but his puppy eyes got the best of you and so you stayed up an extra hour to watch a quick movie with him. In the middle of the screening, he fell asleep on you and so you turned off the T.V and carried him to bed. After tucking him in, you walked away but felt a tug on your arm. Your turned to see Katsuo with sleepy eyes staring up at you. “Yes Katsuo?”
“Sing me to sleep again. Please Y/N,” the sweet boy asked. You smiled down at him and nodded. You took a seat on his bed side as you ran your fingers through his soft, spiked, blonde hair and sang.
As you sung Katsuo to sleep, you didn’t even notice the front door opening. Katsuki walked in feeling a little excited to see Y/N again but when he walked through the door he heard an angelic voice. He placed his bag down and followed the sound into his son’s room. Once he made it there, he stood in the doorway and listened to your voice and watched as you sung his child to sleep.
Your calming voice sent a blush to Katsuki’s face as he smiled and watched. Your voice was like honey. Smooth and sweet. The way you took care of Katsuo filled Katsuki with a type of happiness he never experienced before. He notice you ran your fingers through his son’s hair and Katsuki couldn’t help but feel a little envious of his own child.
“Don’t go away, stay another day~”
You finished the song and smiled as you saw Katsuo finally asleep. You leaned down and pecked his forehead before getting up to leave his room. As you looked towards the doorway, you jumped at the sight of Katsuki’s tall figure leaning against the frame.
“Katsuki, hey. I didn’t even realize you came home. How was work?” You asked. Your question made Katsuki smile, as it was similar to something a wife would ask her husband after a long day. It was something Katsuki never got to experience, even though he was already married. He smiled at you with kind eyes before tilting his head to signal you to follow him. You smiled softly and nodded as you followed Katsuki down the stairs.
For the past hour you and Katsuki had been laughing and talking. You followed Katsuki into the kitchen where he made you both some tea where you then both found seats in the living room. There, you talked some more and you both enjoyed the private company. Eventually, Katsuki grew bold and walked back into the kitchen and returned with a bottle of wine and two glasses.
“Heh, real smooth Romeo.” You teased and Bakugou chuckled as he rolled his eyes as sat down. You both picked up another conversation and eventually reached your second glass.
“Thanks for always taking care of Katsuo the way you do, Y/N.” Bakugou said with a slight blush. And it wasn’t just the alcohol causing it.
“What do you mean?” You asked, your face holding a similar blush for the same reasons. Safe to say you were both a little tipsy tonight. Not drunk but filled with a little liquid courage.
“I don’t know..like a mom?” His words caught your attention and your gaze encouraged him to continue. “Katsuo..doesn’t have the greatest mom in the world. I think everybody knows that. Honestly, if she wasn’t around at all, Katsuo wouldn’t even know the difference. But you? You’re like the mother he never got....the mother he should’ve got.”
You felt a growing heat flow in your face and you smiled at the sweet compliment. You can’t lie, sometimes you did see Katsuo as your son. You didn’t have kids but you always wanted some. Having Katsuo around was like having a son of your own. “Awe, thanks Katsuki.”
“You shouldn’t thank me, it’s just insane how you’re the actual definition of perfect.” He said before taking a sip of wine.
“Stop it,” you said and playfully hit his arm again. You both put your glasses down and he laughed a bit before continuing.
“No, I’m serious. I mean, c’mon you’re beautiful, smart, kind, sassy,” he began.
“Yeah..and,” you said as you both began to face each other.
“You’re great with kids, you’re good at everything, you have a steady career, you have a passion,” he continued.
“Mhmm..” you said while smiling at his words. You shuffled a little bit closer to him on the couch and Bakugou smiled when he noticed.
“...You’re perfect Y/N.” He focused his gaze on you as he became entranced with your E/C eyes. He leaned in close and you did the same. “...You’re the perfect one for me.”
At those words, you both closed the gap between you two and kissed. Your lips were pressed together for a few seconds before you both pulled away for the same amount of time. During that time, Bakugou kept his lips hovering over yours before pecking your lips a few times and then giving you a real, passionate kiss. Due to the small amount of alcohol in your system you happily returned it. Your hands found way into his hair and his found home on your waist. When you took a small breath, Bakugou slipped his tongue in and you both fought for dominance. In the heat of the moment, Bakugou carried you to sit on his lap and you followed his lead. Your tongues continued to tangle as Bakugou’s hands caressed your body.
They moved down to the hill of your ass and gave it a firm squeeze. You moaned into the kiss and it was music to his ears. Almost as good as the sweet lullaby you sang an hour ago. Soon enough, his hands traveled under your shirt and bra to fondle your plush breast. This made you let go of the kiss and throw your head back as you released soft moans. Bakugou didn’t stop and went into kiss your neck. He left sweet pecks before he left a few hickeys. His mouth moved around your neck before he found your sweet spot, earning a needy sound from you. Bakugou began nipping at the spot and licking the soft skin. His actions caused your hands to tug at his hair and made your hips naturally grind against his center. This made Bakugou groan as he gently layed you on your back on the couch. His body found way in between your legs as he separated from your neck and took notice of your flushed face. He smirked at the sight and his eyes traveled to your shirt, where his hands were hidden under. Deciding to change that, his hands left your valley of breast to push your shirt and bra up to expose your chest.
“Beautiful...” was what he whispered before going in to take one of your mounds in his mouth. You gasped and squealed at the sensation of his mouth covering one breast and his hand massaging the other. Bakugou continued to mark up your chest, leaving love bites and bruises all over.
“Ngh...Katsuki..” you whined. Both your centers began to grind against each other as the two of you were pretty much dry humping one another. Bakugou bit at your nipple, causing you to squirm.
“Easy Princess, I got you. Daddy’s got you, Love.” He said as he used both hands to rub soothing motions into your bare waist. You settled as Katsuki kissed a trail back up to your neck and whispered into your ear. “I’m gonna take such good care of you tonight, Y/N.”
His hand glided off your chest, down your stomach and down your pants. His movements had the wetness between your legs growing and his husky voice definitely didn’t calm it down. His hands slid into your panties and his finger took a swipe at your slick.
“So wet...and it’s all for me..right baby?” He smirked against your cheek.
“Y-Yes Katsuki!” You said as you attempted to grind against his hand before Katsuki pulled it away.
“Try again,” he said with a seductive tone. You were confused on what he meant but you were growing so desperate for a touch. His touch. So your mind began to scramble and think. Master? No. Sir? No. Senpai? Hell no.
“..Daddy.” You softly said. You watched as Bakugou’s smirk grew before he kissed your cheek in approval.
“Good girl.” His finger soon returned to your center and after running it up and down a few times, he slowly pushed two in. You gasped at his thick length as Bakugou pumped his hand in and out of you. Wanting to test the waters a bit more, he slid in a third finger as he picked up the speed a bit.
“O-Oh my god!” Your hips began to grind against his hand and Bakugou curled his fingers. “Fuck!”
“Feel good, baby?” Bakugou asked as he began to grind against the underside of your thigh. Your lower body began to slightly shake as his fingers reached a sensitive spot.
“Yes Daddy!” You cried out. You felt the coil in your stomach tightening, signaling a familiar sensation to almost be reached. Growing more riled up and wanting more room on the couch, Bakugou began to throw the decor pillows off the couch. The pillows flew around the living room knocking a few things over, including the family picture. The sound reached your ears and the sight of the broken frame snapped you out of your pleasured state. Your eyes grew wide as you finally came to and realized what you were doing. “Ngh, no!”
You pushed Katsuki off of you and pulled your shirt back down to cover yourself back up. Bakugou looked at you in shock and confusion as he watched you sit up and settle down. “Y/N...?”
Your hands covered your face for a second before rubbing at your temples for a bit. “No, I- ..*sigh* I’m so sorry Katsuki.”
“Uh..no..I-..I guess that was my fault. I’m sorry I just...”
“Ugh..no. Katsuki it’s not that.”
“I just thought you..felt the same way,” he said as he sat back and rubbed the back of his neck.
“No, Katsuki I do, really, it’s just...”
“So then..why’d you stop?” He asked as he looked at you with a nervous and awkward smile.
“Katsuki..you’re married. I’m sorry, I really like you but..I just can’t bring myself to come onto someone who is already in a relationship.” You explained.
‘Wow. She really is a perfect person,’ Bakugou thought to himself. “Y/N, if that’s the problem then don’t worry about it. I don’t even love Leiko, much less like that bitch.” Bakugou moved in to wrap his arm around your waist but you pushed it away.
“So then why are you still with her?” You asked. Katsuki smirked at your words and laughed a little.
“S’a good question,” he said. Right after those words left his mouth, keys could be heard opening the door and in came the bitch herself.
“What’s a good question?” Leiko said as she looked around. She took notice of yours and Katsuki’s presence on the couch, along with the bottle of wine and empty, used glasses. “Well? Is somebody going to explain? What was the question?” Leiko asked as she walked into the house, closing the front door.
Bakugou smiled at you with full eye contact before standing up and facing his wife. “Why am I still with you?”
Leiko raised a brow at the question and her anger began to boil. “What?” She sternly asked.
“Why am I still with you? I don’t love you, I don’t like you, I only stayed with you because we had Katsuo, our child which you don’t even love. In fact, the only thing you do love is my money, or more so, money in general, and yourself. You’re a conceited ass bitch who’s just taking up space in my life. You’re suffocating Katsuo and I by just existing and you’re holding the title of my wife, a title that Y/N should have. So why the fuck am I still with you?” Bakugou said with a stern voice.
“You-...You’re with me because I’m the mother of your child.” Leiko said with hesitation in her voice.
“Are you? Because you’re never around to be a mother for him. Katsuo doesn’t even care whether you’re here or not. Your presence in the house doesn’t make a damn difference. If anything, Y/N’s more of a mother to Katsuo than you.” Bakugou replied.
You grew uncomfortable with the situation and made an attempt to leave. “Umm..I think I should go-“
“No,” Bakugou began. “You’re staying. I want you to see this thing through to the end, beautiful.”
“Beautiful?! The only woman you should be calling beautiful is your wife Katsuki!” Leiko complained. “Not that slut!”
Now you were a uncomfortable but you were not no slut and you definitely didn’t take shit from nobody. “Excuse me?” You said with attitude but before you could continue, Bakugou intervened.
“Call her a slut again and I’ll blow your ass to bits. Let’s not forget, you had the title of a whore before being called my wife.” Bakugou said with the intent to cause pain.
“Well I may have been a whore but at least I never cheated, which is what I’m sure you were planning on doing with her if I hadn’t come home.” Leiko said.
“You’re damn right I was! Lucky for you, Y/N’s a good person so nothing actually went down but if she gave me the chance, please fucking believe I’d take it in a heartbeat. Matter of fact, if she gave me the chance to wife her up and make her Katsuo’s new mom I’d do that in a heartbeat too.” Bakugou said while looking at you. You felt your heart speed up a little due to his confession but you turned your head to the side to hide your growing blush. Bakugou smirked at the sight before Leiko interrupted.
“What the hell are you trying to say?!” Leiko asked with anger.
“I’m saying I don’t love or like you and I never did! And after 2 years of getting to know Y/N after falling for her at first sight, I can finally fucking say that I’m in love with somebody and it’s her!” Bakugou turned to face you as his wife’s jaw dropped. “Y/N, I’m fucking in love with you. Alright? I have been for the past 2 years already, ever since I met you. And to the bitch behind me,” Bakugou said and turned to face Leiko. “If it wasn’t already obvious, we’re getting a divorce.”
Leiko was fuming as her face grew red with anger. She began laughing in disbelief. “Hah, fine! Fine whatever! Like I give a fuck! Y/N you can have him and the damn kid! I never wanted him anyway! The damn brat just gave me an excuse to keep Bakugou’s fat wallet around. But when you come crawling back, don’t expect me to say yes Katsuki!”
“Well don’t expect me to come crawling back, ‘cause if I’m able to get Y/N to give me a chance, then I won’t be needing anyone else except for her and my son. You can get the fuck out now. I’ll send you your shit and the divorce papers to wherever the fuck you decide to stay.” Bakugou said as he gestured to the door. Leiko screamed some more nonsense that nobody payed attention to and finally walked out the door and slammed it shut.
Silence rang throughout the house for a few minutes after the official split between the toxic couple. Bakugou turned to face you with a small smile as he stood infront of you.
“Well?” He asked.
“Heh, well what?” You asked with a laugh.
“I uh..heh, it wasn’t the way I wanted to tell you but I got my confession out...” Bakugou took a seat next to you and took hold of your hand. He brought it up to his lips, placing a peck to your knuckles before speaking. “..I love you Y/N. I know I do..and I know this might be a bad time to ask considering what just went down-“
“Uh, yeah. A really bad time,” you said with a little giggle.
“Right but umm..do you...how do you feel about me?” He asked with a nervous pulse beating throughout his body. He had to know. Do you love him just for his looks? Did you just want to fuck? Did you actually feel something towards him?
You smiled before using your other hand to grab hold of Katsuki’s shoulder and pulled him in for a sweet kiss. Katsuki’s body jumped in excitement but his hands were quick to hold onto your waist. This kiss was sweet and loving and lasted for some time before you pulled back. You smiled at the blonde as he looked at you with anticipating eyes.
“I love you too Katsuki.” Before you could even process anything, Katsuki had already pounced on you and pinned you to the couch in a hug. He had his arms wrapped around your waist as he tucked his head in the crevasse of your neck.
“God, I’ve been waiting years to hear you say those words.” Bakugou said before he began covering your face in thousands of loving kissed. You giggled at the ticklish and loving feeling and just smiled as you allowed Katsuki to show you his love.
Time passed and you and Katsuki stayed cuddled up on the couch. Nothing sexual, nothing nasty, just pure love induced cuddle time. Eventually, the late hours of the night exposed themselves and so you had to go.
“Katsuki, get up,” you said in a soft voice.
“No.” You laughed at his quick reply and began to push at his body to get him off.
“C’mon Katsuki seriously. I have to go home!” You said with another laugh.
“No. Katsuo and I are your new home.” He said, making his body become dead weight to stop you from going.
“Oof! Katsuki!! C’mon!” You whined out with a chuckle. Katsuki laughed with you but you kept trying. “You both are my new home, but my old home has comfy pjs for me to sleep in.”
“I can give you one of my shirts to sleep in. You’d look so amazing in them, princess.” He said with a smile as he imagined how you’d look prancing around in his clothes. It wasn’t the first time he thought about it but just knowing it was so close to becoming true sent butterflies all over his body.
“C’mon Katsuki. You already made me miss my class, the least you could do is let me go back to my apartment.” You said. Bakugou raised his head to look at you with a grin plastered on his face.
“You stayed on your own free will. S’not my fault you love talking to me. Let’s not forget what happened after our long talk too,” Bakugou said, hinting at your scandalous acts with him before you stopped anything else from happening. You rolled your eyes at his words before he spoke up again. “Matter of fact, maybe we should pick up where we left off,” he said and began kissing your cheek.
“Noooo, Katsuki, seriously. I’m tired, I just want to sleep.” You said with a smile.
“So sleep here,” he bargained. You looked at him with a raised brow, silently asking him to go on. “I was serious about having you stay over. You can sleep in my shirt and we can both fall asleep in the guest room.”
“Both of us in the guest room?” You questioned.
“Yeah. I’d let you sleep in my room but I’m not letting that bitch’s leftover presence contaminate you.” You laughed at his insults but allowed him to continue. “And yes both of us. I’m not going to sleep without my princess in my arms.”
You couldn’t lie, the sound of falling asleep in Katsuki’s arms in his clothes was pretty tempting. After taking a look at Katsuki and seeing the same puppy eyes that Katsuo was able to persuade you with, you gave in.
“Fine.”
“Yes!” Bakugou said with a fist in the air as he cuddled in closer.
Bakugou finally let you go and allowed you to take a shower. While you were in there, he took a quick drive to the corner store and bought some compression shorts for you. When he returned he left one of his shirts and a pair of the compression shorts for you on the guest bed as he went to get ready for bed in his own room. You walked into the guest room and saw the shorts and shirt and put them on. You looked in the mirror and noticed the shorts weren’t even noticeable considering their tiny length and the large size of Katsuki’s shirt. While staring at yourself, Katsuki walked in wearing nothing but gray sweats. He took a glance at you and was drooling over your body in his clothes.
“...Wow,” he whispered but you heard. You turned to face him and smiled. You walked to him and wrapped you arms around his neck.
“Hey Suki, ready for bed?” You said. Bakugou smiled at the new name as a small blush dusted over his cheeks.
“Suki?”
“New name for you. Like it?” You asked.
“Love it.” He said and pecked your lips before picking you up and carrying you to the bed. He dropped you onto the soft mattress and flopped on top of you. You both laughed a little before getting under the blankets and cuddling up against each other again.
Time passed and Katsuki felt at peace finally with you in his arms. Like the missing part of him was finally filled in. You were so happy and felt so loved in the safety of his arms. Staying the night was definitely worth it.
“I’m so glad Y/N. I love you so much and I’ve wanted you for so long.” He said with your head tucked under his chin. You smiled at his words and nuzzled into his chest.
“Well congrats Katsuki. ‘Cause now, you have me.” Katsuki kissed the crown of your head before falling asleep. And when he woke up that morning to find you in the kitchen with Katsuo on your hip as you made breakfast, he smiled with a full heart as he walked to you both and remembered your words.
“You have me.”
A/N: Hey y’all, for a better experience with the story, I do recommend clicking the link where Y/N sang to Katsuo. I put two links in the story. The heels class and Y/N’s singing, (which is from Rio 2, Jewel’s lullaby) Don’t judge me, that’s the best lullaby ever😂 If you don’t know what a heels class is in dancing, it is basically...dancing with heels😂 Umm...yeah. THE ENDING IS SO RUSHED, IM SO SORRY!

Jiggle physics
Jeff Pfister x female!reader
Warnings: SMUT, dominant reader, sub Jeff, some degradation towards Jeff, a bit of voyeurism at the end (reader finds out mutt saw the whole thing)
Request: My fic thought for the night (up for grabs) but it’s Jeff pfister. Reader is a dancer/instructor and Jeff studies her for “jiggle physics”. Thought is definitely a smut
One again I am stealing a picture from @copy-of-a-cheeto because I love the icons they make. Thank you!!
Also thank you to @divineruler for proof reading
Tumblr media
It was another day for you to begin with. You were working at a small gym in town after your other job hadn't really worked out. You were freshly graduated from college and needed somewhere to work while you looked for other opportunities, a gym was your best option. Now you weren't an avid gym person, but you did enjoy dancing so you ended up instructing a Zumba class. It was more of a hip hop class because your gym was right near a college town, and early 00s Spanish didn't reach college kids as much as hip hop and rap music.
This week you had specifically scheduled a dirty Thursday class, uncensored music and a lot of confidence boosting music. You were doing your last few songs, pushing everyone to their "sexy limits" as you put it. You had stripped off your tank top, now just in your sports bra and leggings. When you were stripping off your top, you had a few of your regulars whistle or cheer, some even joining you as they knew the choreography. You ended your last high energy song and started your cool downs, opting to leave the shirt off as you were definitely sweating right now.
The slow sounds of Just the two of Us by Grover Washington jr played through the speakers as you instructed your class to stretch out. As you faced them, you couldn't help but catch a glance of blonde hair from outside the glass doors to the room. It looked familiar but you couldn't put your finger on it as you continued your instruction. After you finished your cool down, you moved to gather your things as some of the students chatted with you. One of your best friends had walked out to run to the locker room and came back, running up to you and pinching your arm a bit. "You'll never guess who is outside looking for you." She whispered so others wouldn't hear.
Turning to her you rubbed the now pained part of your arm and raised an eyebrow in amusement. "Um I don't know, Ryan Reynolds ready to sweep me off my feet?" You asked and reached down to pick up your gym bag and tank top, choosing to toss it in the bag rather than putting it on. Your friend followed you out of the classroom with the rest of the remaining class. "No, it's fucking Jeff and Mutt from high school." She whispered and nodded to the front desk where they stood, talking to a receptionist. You looked at them for a second.
"And they have those same dumb haircuts from when they were 12." You choked back a quiet laugh as you approached the front desk. Mutt saw you first and then elbowed Jeff to look up at you. "Hey boys, long time no see." You said and walked up to the pair, holding out your membership card to the front desk people to clock you out. "What warrants such an abrupt visit from the resident horny weeb club." You said and led the boys out, your friend keeping a close distance behind the group.
"Hey y/n, can we talk to you alone? We have a job offer for you?" Mutt said and glanced at your friend. You stopped outside the gym and nodded to your friend to go to the car you shared. "What job could you two possibly have for me? Last I heard you guys were just trolling random people online and spam liking my Instagram pictures." You said and crossed your arms. You weren't really friends with the two in high school, but you did have a friendly teasing relationship with them, rather than really making fun of them like others did. You were really only nice because you never knew who'd end up going crazy, and you'd rather not be on someone's shit list.
"We recently ran into... a lot of money. And we wanted to hire you at our robotics company." Jeff said and gestured excitedly at you. He definitely was on something from the way he had a shake to his hands. "Uh... you two know I majored in archeology? I don't know the first thing past how to google." You said and looked mainly at Jeff. God if he didn't have that stupid haircut still, you'd be tempted to say he got hot. He's got a pretty good body and he looked pretty good in comparison to Mutt. It would help him a lot if he didn't still dress and look like he was 12.
"We're aware. It has nothing to do with your degree. Here, this is what you'd make if you come to work for us." Mutt grabbed a card from his pocket and a pen that hung from your bag pocket. When he handed you the paper you had to blink at the numbers for a second. "Annually?" "Weekly" Jeff corrected your question. You stared at the paper for a second. "How do I know you guys aren't just high or something? How'd you even find me?" You asked and Mutt and Jeff looked at each other before Jeff grabbed his keys from his pocket. He clicked the unlock button and a Rolls Royce beeped from where it was parked only a few spots away from where you stood. "If you're interested come pay us a visit." Mutt pointed at the business card he had handed you and the two walked to the car before you could say anything.
When you got home of course you researched the company name on the card. Kineros Robotics had made actual headlines and pictures of the men were on different sites about their sudden influx of money to their company from a generous anonymous donation. You glanced at the card and pursed your lips before pulling up Instagram, going to Jeff's page, glancing at the pictures he's posted and biting your lip. God you could really tell he was either still a virgin or very submissive in some sense. He wasn't like any of the gym bros that hit on you or messaged you. With a small surge of courage, you hit the 'message' button and typed out a quick text.
After messaging back and forth about the job opportunity for about two days, you found yourself standing outside the main entrance to the robotics lab. You walked down the hall to see glass doors and just a buzzer. You buzzed and were quickly let in. "You guys should get a receptionist or someth-" your words were cut off when you saw what was really in the room. There were humanoid robot figures and a lot of latex parts just laying around. A lot of these parts were tits or asses, all different shapes and sizes but there seemed to be something off with all of them.
"Hey I'm glad you made it. You can set yourself up in the room over there." Mutt said as he stared down at his computer. The room was all white, some windows around but pretty much all of them had shade covering them with little to no light peeking through. There was a pile of white powder sitting at each desk. Oh so they were coked out and making sex dolls. What the actual fuck did this have to do with you? "Set my stuff up...?" You asked softly and Jeff stood from his desk to lead you to the room.
"I didn't tell you what you were here for?" He asked as he opened the door to the next room. You shook your head and looked at the hardwood floor and speaker set up. "We need you to be a model. See... our last few latex prints came out... less than desirable- jiggle wise. Our math was way off and we need these to be as real as possible." Jeff said and walked to a small cabinet in the corner of the room. "I need you to put this on so we can monitor your motions to make our robots more realistic." He said and handed you what was barely any cloth. It looked like those dotted suits superheroes wore so their suits could be cgi but instead of a suit it was a bikini top and what is pretty much a skimpy pair of bottoms that were basically bathing suit bottoms with how little they covered.
"Jeff, you didn't mention this." You said and took the clothes slowly as he headed back out to the door. "Just put those on and I'll be back in a few." He said and glanced over your body again quickly before closing the door. You decided to send a quick text to your best friend- just a "here's what I'm doing in case I get murdered" text. After that you slipped the clothes on and stared at yourself in the mirror beside the little cabinet. You could tell this was a makeshift dance room. That was probably what they were looking for. Good thing jiggle physics was your thing in class.
Jeff came back a couple minutes later with a laptop in his hands. He stopped and gulped when he looked over your body in the skimpy outfit, quickly opting to sit on the ground as he monitored the points on the laptop. "Go ahead." He said and positioned the laptop on his lap, having to adjust himself a bit a couple of times. "Jeff... I need music." You said and moved to grab your phone, nodding to the speaker system, him shrugging and letting you do so. As you leaned over the speaker you glanced in the mirror beside you and he was very much staring right at your ass. God if he wasn't such a virgin you'd probably be disgusted. That was probably why they didn't know the right jiggle physics for a woman's body.
You started playing some of your best twerk music, trying to shake off how weird it was to have just Jeff staring at his computer then back to you as you danced. You tried to just close your eyes and get into the choreography as you ignored the awkwardness of Jeff obviously having a boner and you just twerking for him to collect data. You did a few hip swirls and then some quick shakes, glancing at yourself in the mirror. Honestly as you looked you didn't realize you had given Jeff a perfect look of your ass. He ran a hand through his hair as the song began to wrap up. You went to your phone to change the song and decided to strike up a small conversation.
"So… are you getting good data?" You asked and just got a simple nod from Jeff, his stupidly cute bowl cut bobbing back and forth as he nodded. "So you're making sex robots huh?" You asked as you looked through your playlist nonchalantly bending over a bit to give Jeff a good view of your chest. He once again responded with a nod as you started the next song. It was a bit more sexy than the last one. "Why don't you monitor the jiggle physics of sex then?" You asked as you lowered the volume of the song, starting your choreography, which included some moves where you're on the ground, shaking and bouncing as if you were riding someone. "I'm sure they are more accurate than me dancing." You said as you pushed yourself down to the ground chest first with your ass up and facing Jeff.
He adjusted a bit and you moved yourself a bit closer to where he was seated as he chose not to answer you. "If you want more accurate results Jeff, you need the jiggle physics of sex." You stated and gently moved the computer off his lap, placing it on the ground as you gently moved to straddle his legs. "The reason you and Mutt can't get the math right is because you need to really experience a woman's body during sex and neither of you could rope in a girl to fuck you for science. Am I right?" You asked Jeff as you leaned into him, settling yourself on his lap. His face was so red as his eyes kept flicking from your chest to your face. He just nodded silently to your question.
"Jeff, I'm gonna need you to verbally respond to me. I want to hear you say it." You said and ran your hands from his shoulders and down his chest. He took a deep shaky breath. "Fu- I need you to fuck me for science." He said softly and looked up to you as you tutted at him.
"No honey, the other thing." You said and pushed your fingers under the hem of his shirt. He gulped and took in another breath. "I can't get anyone to fuck me. Please y/n I need you." He pretty much whimpered under you as you pushed up to the balls of your feet, leaning forward and beginning to shake your ass a bit from where you sat on his lap. You rolled your hips slowly forwards and pushed your chest against his, leaning up next to his ear. "That's better." You whispered and then left a small wet kiss under his ear. Slowly working down his neck in small wet kisses and sucks.
You could feel his body tense as you reached down between you and gently palmed at him. God you could tell how hard he was without looking. You smirked a bit and continued to suck small hickies on his neck and under his ear as you quickly undid his button and fly, grabbing his dick from his boxers. Wow if you would've known he was packing you probably would've slept with him in high school, but everyone just assumed he wasn't and that was why he didn't get girls. You pumped him slowly and you could hear him let out small moans and whimpers, wanting to stay quiet on the off chance Mutt heard over the music.
As you pumped him you gently bit his earlobe to get his attention. "If you wanna get inside me baby, you gotta help me out." You said quietly and he nodded and willingly let you take his hands and place them on your ass. He gave a small gentle squeeze and you smirked as you felt him twitch in your hand. "God... fuck... holy shit..." he muttered as you rolled your hips against his thighs, wanting to at least stimulate yourself a little bit.
"You wanna make sure my monitoring is ok baby?" You whispered and he glanced over at the laptop, still reading the outfit you wore. You grabbed his cock again, now moving yourself to push your bottoms to the side. Slowly sinking down on to him, you could've sworn Jeff came right then. And he did. But that wasn't going to stop you from helping him out for the 'sake of science'. You grabbed his hands and placed them on your waist so as to not interfere with his readings. Slowly you began to bounce on him, feeling all parts of your body begin to bounce. Jeff was letting out the most sinful noises. Honestly it sounded like he only knew what moaning was from women in porn, but you didn't mind- honestly it was hot to have him be so responsive.
"Oh baby you're gonna be too loud, Mutt might interrupt us and you wouldn't want that would you? Don't want him to find you moaning like a whore for me." You said lowly as you reached up to gently squeeze his throat. He closed his mouth and nodded at you as you continued to bounce on him. God you could tell how close he was to coming again, but lord knows you weren't done with him. His moans got quieter but he still let out small whines from below you. You reached down to rub your own clit as you bounced on top of him. "Fuck baby, you wanna fuck me so bad? How about you get that data you need by pounding me from behind?" You muttered and climbed off of him.
He barely questioned you when you did so, only whining a little at the loss of contact. As you turned around and got on your knees, pushing your ass up in the air, he quickly moved to his own knees, pushing into you and beginning to thrust at a rapid pace. You could definitely tell his knowledge of sex is from video games and porn because he kinda went wild. He pounded hard and you couldn't help but moan out as he grabbed your waist with a tight grip. After he got a hang on his speed, he reached forwards and pulled you up, pushing you against the mirrored wall he had been leaning against, he paused momentarily to undo the bikini top, and as soon as it dropped to the ground he was grabbing your tits from behind.
You pushed back against him, your face now pushed against the foggy mirror as he thrusted into you hard. "Fuck.... fuck y/n." He grunted out quietly as his thrust became more sporadic and sloppy. You could tell he was gonna come again, so you reached behind your head and grabbed his hair firmly. "You're not coming again until I cum. You fucking hear me?" You groaned as he continued to thrust into you. He nodded and reached around in front of you, fumbling for your clit for a moment before you corrected his hand placement and showed him the correct movement. He rubbed quickly and in pace with his thrusts, you could tell from his look in the mirror that he was trying so hard not to cum.
As soon as you finally reached the edge, you let out a loud and pretty pornographic moan of his name mixed with some swearing and praises. "God... fuck Jeff you feel so good in me. I want you to cum baby. I want you to cum in me baby." You thrusted back on him and kept your hand firmly tugging at his hair. It was only seconds before he was coming in you, his own face twisted in pleasure as you looked at him through the mirror. He slowed to a stop and slowly removed himself from you. You only caught your breath for a couple moments before there was a knock on the door.
"Hey those were good readings, we're gonna need you here again tomorrow so we can get some other position readings." Mutt called through the door. You looked at Jeff. "Could he see the reading the whole time?" You asked Jeff quietly. He bit his lips and nodded. "I assumed you knew because you saw this room through the glass when you walked in." Jeff said and pointed to the mirror which was in fact a one way mirror you had seen walking in from the lab, which you falsely assumed was a window because of the shade. "So mutt saw the whole thing?" You asked softly, slowly piecing everything together. Jeff nodded, scared you were gonna be upset. You only shrugged and reached over to gently grab his throat again. "Guess now he knows how good of a whore you are for me then." And god if he hadn't just come, Jeff probably would've come again from that action alone. Damn you were gonna have fun working here.

I Found My Light (Kakashi x Reader)
Chapter 1 | Chapter 2
A/n: Sound the alarms! It’s my first ever writing post! I’ve had this written for a while tbh, and I feel like I’m ready to start getting into this.
Summary: A late-night walk turns into a rekindled friendship.
Word Count: 2300
Warnings: fem!reader, SFW (but might not be later lol)
You opened your eyes for what seemed like the thousandth time tonight. Staring at the white ceiling, you sighed. Sleep seemed to evade you recently, a side effect of the recent dreariness of your life. You found yourself living the same days over and over again. Because of this, the line between day and night started to fade.
The moon was full tonight, you noticed as it shined brightly through your open window. It was the perfect temperature out, warm but chilly enough to feel comfortable wrapped in your blankets. You love listening to the occasional sounds that occurred outside, the noise of leaves rustling in the wind being your favorite.
Your gaze left the moon and landed back on your ceiling. Why is something as simple as sleeping so hard? Gods, all you wanted was an escape. With a huff, you pushed the covers off of you and sat up from your lying position. Trying to force yourself to sleep would do more harm than good right now.
You make your way to your dresser and pull out your favorite pair of black joggers. You love them because they are tight on your ankles, loose on your legs, and have a cinched band at the waist. They are perfect for any lazy day. You slip them on over your underwear, you never go to bed with pants on, and exchange your sleep shirt for a cropped black hoodie made from the same soft, elastic material as your pants.
You turn to face your large standing mirror in the corner of the room to assess your appearance. The all-black look was your favorite, especially since it will help you blend into the night. Your hair was a mess, so you decided to put it up in a loose bun on the top of your head and pull out some strands to frame your face. It felt good to not look so polished and put together. Your jonin uniform was not the most comfortable piece of clothing, especially with the way it hit your figure.
You walked out of your bedroom and across the kitchen to the front door of your apartment. One foot after the other, you slide into your sandals and grab the key to your apartment hanging on the hook next to you. With that, you leave your apartment and head out into the night.
You walked the streets of Konoha at a gingerly pace. It was probably around 3 a.m. at this point, and there wasn’t a single soul on the street with you. You make your way past the line of shops on the main street, including your favorite bakery where you'd treat yourself to a lemon square after coming back from a long mission. You thought about that lemon square a lot when you were out risking your life, embarrassingly enough.
A couple of turns later and you found yourself heading towards your favorite place in all of Konoha, a little area of woods towards the perimeter that contained this amazing koi pond. Although it was nighttime and the fish wouldn’t be as active, you still want to check to see if you can watch any. To your surprise, your favorite koi, who you nicknamed “Nishi'', was out and swimming around by himself. You sit criss-cross in the grass and watch as he glides through the calm water, almost putting you in trance. Nishi didn’t look or act like the others; He was black with white, almost silver-looking spots and he was less frantic in nature. You sway from side to side as you watch him, thinking to yourself about how you would like to be more like Nishi.
“You look cute watching the koi.” You heard a soft, yet unwavering voice declare behind you.
“Holy sh-” You almost jump out of your pants at the unexpected presence. Surprised, you quickly turn your head around to see who’s voice that could possibly be. To your disbelief, there lies a figure perched up by a tree a couple yards away from you. Their feet were crossed, legs extended, one hand in the pocket of their pants, the other holding up what looks like a copy of Icha-Icha, head turned towards you, and wild hair moving with each passing breeze. How did I not notice him?
“Oh I’m sorry (y/n), I didn’t mean to startle you. I figured you knew I was here because you walked right past me.” He brought his hand up to scratch the back of his head and let out a small chuckle. “Guess I should have made my presence known right away.”
Still in disbelief, you get up and slowly make your way towards the figure, stepping into the shadow of the tree to see him more clearly. As you approached you immediately recognized the silver-haired jonin.
“Kakashi?” You say confused. “What are you doing out here? It’s late.”
“I could ask you the same thing.” He states, closing his book and setting it down next to him on the grass. He looked different. He looked… quite hot actually. The jonin uniform you usually saw him in was traded for a pair of comfortable-looking grey sweatpants and a tight, black tank top that connected to his mask. He wasn’t wearing his headband either, just keeping his left sharingan eye shut in a permanent wink. As you observed him, you couldn’t help but notice that he was doing the same to you.
“I suppose you're right.” You smirk and let out a small chuckle. “I couldn’t sleep so I figured that if I was up I should take a walk around the village to clear my head. This is my favorite spot, so I guess I just naturally ended up here.” You exclaimed, still standing in front of him.
“It looks like you and I are having the same issue,” he states plainly, “I came out here a little while ago after tossing in my bed for an hour. I hate trying to force myself to sleep; It’s a battle I never seem to win.” His eyes averted your gaze and moved to his now empty hands in his lap. You couldn’t help but notice a hint of pain in his voice and it tugged at your heartstrings.
You know about the things Kakashi has been through, as it was pretty common knowledge to all jonin in your mutual age group. You were pretty close with his friends, Gai, Kurenai, and Asuma, but Kakashi always seemed to keep everyone at an arm’s length. He also was an Anbu for ten years, which didn’t help the disconnect either. Fortunately, he was relieved from his Anbu position a couple weeks ago, and gradually you have been seeing him a bit more here and there. Though, this is the first time you are able to have a conversation with him in what seems like forever.
“Well,” you sighed, “I guess we have lost the battle together. We must be pretty shitty jonin.” You stated flatly.
Kakashi squinted his eyes and you both laughed. You couldn’t help but take a mental picture of his face at this moment. You really enjoy seeing him happy, as it makes you happy too.
You can’t kid yourself, having a chance to talk with Kakashi alone feels like such a treat. Little genin (y/n) would be ecstatic right now. Of course you had a crush on him back then, who didn’t?
“You’ve always had a natural talent for connecting with people,” Kakashi mused, “I haven’t talked to you since we were teenagers, and here I am laughing with you like we’re long-time friends.”
You could feel your eyebrows furrow at that statement. Yeah sure, you weren’t at his apartment every week for Sunday brunch, but you did have a history.
“Kakashi,” you started, “You are my long-time friend. Just because we drifted apart doesn’t mean I don’t care about you. To be honest, I was relieved when I found out you were no longer going to be a member of the Anbu. It wasn’t good for you.” You stepped closer and sat down next to him, leaning back on the tree stump. The grass felt cool under you, sending a small shiver up your body.
“I suppose you’re right,” Kakashi stated, quoting your words from earlier. “It amazes me that none of you gave up on me. I feel like I am undeserving of everyone’s effort.” You were baffled by his honesty; Kakashi wasn’t known to be much of an open book. It upsets you so much that he feels this way as you couldn’t imagine not caring about him or any of your other comrades in the village. The faces of your closest friends flashed through your mind and you grimaced at the thought of losing them.
Not knowing if you should, you felt compelled to reach over and hold Kakashi’s hand in yours. It's cold compared to the warmth spreading from your fingertips. Hmm, I wonder how long he has been out here. Giving his hand a small squeeze, you look at him in his onyx eye. “Trust me, Kakashi. You are deserving. You are deserving of a great life and people who care about you. I know the world may seem dark, but I promise that a light is always glowing. No matter how small or dim, it’s there.”
You stare at each other in silence for a moment before he changes the position of his hand and intertwines his fingers in yours. The change was small, but it ignites a feeling in your stomach you couldn’t describe. Slowly, you felt your cheeks flush and you turned your face to look towards the sky in hopes he wouldn’t notice. You knew this action was him telling you that he accepts your words, and thanks you for them.
You spent the next hour sitting under the tree together, you looking up at the stars and him looking at you. Your intertwined hands fell between your bodies, resting on the cool grass. You felt him start to graze the back of your hand with his thumb, sending a tingling sensation up your arm. It felt so good to be touched by him, even in such an innocent manner.
A strong breeze ran through the air and hit you suddenly. You began to shiver at the quick change in temperature, realizing that you should have dressed warmer if you were going to be out this long. Yet, you couldn’t have anticipated the situation you are currently in.
“Are you cold?” Kakashi questioned with a hint of concern.
“Yeah a little bit,” you answered honestly, “but I don’t want to go back home. I’m not really tired yet.” Truthfully, you didn’t want this little moment of shared bliss to end. You started to feel like you found your escape, and you refused to be torn away from it so soon.
“Neither do I,” he confessed, “Come here.” He released his hand from yours and slid his position higher up on the side of the tree. He then spread his legs and patted the ground in between, inviting you to sit.
You felt your face get hot again, as the position he was offering you was a very intimate gesture. There was absolutely no way you could refuse his offer. One, because you were freezing and, two, young (y/n) would never forgive you.
You got up and sat down carefully between his thighs, leaning until your back met his chest. He then wrapped both of his arms around you, one around your shoulders and the other around your waist with his hand resting on your stomach. The outsides of your legs met the insides of his and you felt an immediate warmth there. Lastly, your head tilted back and rested upon his left shoulder, with his face nuzzled against your temple. You both fit together like two pieces of a puzzle, no part of you feeling any discomfort against his strong body. Engulfed in his smell and warmth, for the first time in a while you felt completely relaxed.
“Thank you, Kakashi.” You looked up at him with a warm smile.
“Anytime.” He breathed, voice muffled by your hair. You wondered if he truly meant that. I mean, after all, this is the first time you have interacted in a while. Yet, the connection you felt towards him was unquestionable.
Does he feel the way I feel?
“Hey,” you began, “are you tired at all?”
He flexed his arms and held you closer to his chest. “Not really,” he answered, “I’m enjoying this moment too much to be tired.” You smiled, and there was a pause.
“Isn’t this odd?” you questioned again.
“What? You and I snuggled under a tree in a random corner of the village alone at 4 a.m. after we haven’t interacted with each other in years?” he questioned sarcastically, “Not at all.”
“Kakashi!,” you laughed, gently nudging your elbow into his ribs as he laughed along with you.
“Yeah it’s a little odd,” he answered honestly, “but I’m not going to question it. I found my light, and now I’m enjoying it.” He nuzzled his face into your hair and breathed deeply.
Completely and utterly relaxed, you let yourself succumb to the heaviness of your eyelids. Truthfully, this has felt like the longest day in the world and you are happy to end it this way. The sound of Kakashi’s breathing and the rise and fall of his chest acted as your personal sleep machine. It’s priceless.
Before you completely drift off, you swear you could feel the soft, pillowiness of Kakashi’s lips graze the skin of your temple, a soft hum escaping from them.
“Goodnight, (y/n)”

Intentional - Part 1
Tumblr media
Pairing: Bang Chan x Reader (she/her)
Summary: Landing your first real job at JYPE was something short of a miracle. You were prepared to face the new struggles of this elusive career whilst moving to a new country, however, nothing could have prepared you for him. Will stolen glances, secret touches, and hushed nights spent in the recording room ever be enough for the both of you?

A/N: hey yall this is my first ff im posting on tumblr :D im kinda scared to post but i hope anybody who stumbles on lil ol’ me will join me along the way :) also important!!! i made oc/reader asian cus i am lol (and this whole thing is basically a glorified self insert) so plz keep this in mind when reading!! oh god i didnt realize how slow this first part was sry... 
The cold silence of the room felt like stabs at your inside. You commanded your feet to stop bouncing up and down as you unconsciously started to bite off the dead skin of your bottom lip. The white corporate light from above reflected off your brand new lanyard hanging delicately from your neck. You felt the coarse blue fabric rub against your neck as you mindlessly fiddled with your lanyard; the newly printed photo of your face stared back at you with a smile. 
The creak of the door to your left was what broke you from your nervous fidgets. Whipping your head up from your lanyard, you immediately stood up ready to bow to whoever came through that door. 
It was a girl. She looked around the same age as you, if not older. Her attire was what gave her away. Her appearance essentially mirrored yours: hair tied back into a ponytail with a white blouse and black work pants. She also had the familiar blue ‘JYPE’ labeled strap hanging from her neck. 
“Hello,” you spoke meekly, scared to disturb the cold silence that had a hold on the room you were in. 
“Hello,” she replied. “My name is Choi Na-eun, I’m the new social media strategist intern and today is my first day.”
This is so relieving, you thought, another newbie to share the stress with me. 
“This is my first day too,” you perked up, “I’ll be starting as the new junior Chinese marketing assistant.” 
Getting the acceptance email from JYP Entertainment was definitely a high point in your life. The feeling of butterflies swarming your insides as you clicked the email open only to see your acceptance was immediately locked as a core memory. All the years of memorizing thousands of Korean and English vocabulary flashcards, the panic attacks before your finance exams, and the many, many late night coffee breaks were worth it the moment you received your first legitimate job offer, and from the esteemed JYP Entertainment company no less. 
“Chinese marketing?” Na-eun asked. “So you aren’t from here, I take it.” 
You shook your head. “I am from China. I completed my degree a while ago with a major in Language and a minor in Business. To be honest, I’ve done internships back home, but it’s been my dream to move to a new country.”
All of what you said was true. Up until now, your surroundings have never changed in all of your twenty-three years living. From the walk with your grandmother to daycare to the vast campus of your university, the view of your city has never changed. Your social circle stayed stagnant since you were able to talk and your love life was — for a lack of a better word — uneventful. 
It wasn’t until the day you decided to start applying for careers outside your home country that you felt hopeful. Hopeful that you could find an escape from your inert lifestyle and escape the burnout and stress that has been building up over the years. And so, on a day when you were feeling unusually confident, you gathered up the courage and spent hours sending out applications to organizations all over Asia that pertained to your specific degree. The applications were mainly for small jobs at small companies, however, your strange spike of motivation gave you the confidence to apply to the everso esteemed JYP Entertainment located in Korea. Of course you knew about this company — you and your friends played songs by ‘Twice’ nonstop back in highschool — but you didn’t realize the full power that this company had on the entertainment market until you did your full research. To say that you thought you had no chance was an understatement. This application was so far of a reach that you purposefully forced your mind to erase all memory of even applying. 
However, with your education, your work experience, and whatever tiny bit of luck you had, you somehow made it through the initial application process. Then the next. And the next. Then the interview. And now, you were nervously sitting in this white painted room with Na-eun, in a completely new country, waiting for your manager to come greet you. 
“So you’re from China? You’ve got to teach me chinese sometime.” Na-eun smiled. 
You giggled in return while nodding your head. You were relieved that you’ve met a potential friend so early in your career in this company. This was one of your big worries. With your social circle being so stagnant for the majority of your life back in China, you rarely had the opportunity to meet new people, much less make new friends. 
You were about to inquire more into Na-eun’s life when the door to your left abruptly opened. In the blink of an eye, three new people strutted in — two women and one man. They seemed to be higher status than you and Na-eun judging by their attire. All three were styled in some type of blazer and dress pants and there was no lanyard to be found on any of them. 
“Hello new employees,” the man greeted. Judging by his face, he looked to be in his late thirties at the least. His hair was styled back neatly and his lips slanted up, giving him a fox-like appearance. “I am Executive Manager Kim. Joined beside me on the left is Social Media Manager An and to my right is Marketing Manager Chen.” 
Both you and Na-eun immediately stood up to bow and introduce yourselves. 
“Hello. My name is Choi Na-eun, I’m the new social media strategist intern.” Na-eun said. 
“Hello. My name is y/n, I’m the new junior Chinese marketing assistant.” You repeated after her, copying exactly what she said. You did not want to screw anything up on your first day, especially your first impression. 
Manager Kim reached over to Na-eun, introducing himself and giving her a firm handshake. He then slowly moved over to you, and reached for your hand. 
“Y/n,” he gave time for your name to settle on his tongue as he gave a sly smile. “You’re not from here, aren't you?”
You shook your head ‘no’. “No, sir. I’m from China where I studied language and business. I hope to do well here as the Chinese marketing assistant.” You replied, mentally cursing yourself for sounding so timid. 
“I’m glad to hear,” Manager Kim chuckled, “I’m sure you’ll treat me and your other managers well.”
You felt an uncomfortable shiver pass through you as he brushed his thumb along your hand before letting go. This feeling was excused as nervousness, after all, this was your first day and your first time meeting your higher-ups. 
You introduced yourself to Manager Chen, assuming that she would be the one you were to assist in your time here at JYPE. Judging by her last name, you presumed that she was Chinese as well. 
“Forgive me for being so straight up Manager Chen, but are you Chinese?” You asked. 
“That is alright, y/n,” she smiled, “I’m not. My Husband is, but I’ve lived in China for more than half my life. I don’t want to brag, but my mandarin has gotten proficient over the past decade or so.”
Proficient? It’s amazing. You thought. This first day was turning out better than you thought. Other than the weird feeling you received from Manager Kim, everything was turning out splendid. A potential friend and a manager that could speak your first language.
“Since it’s about noon right now,” Manager Kim took a look at his watch, “What do you all think about some lunch?” 
The other managers nod their heads in agreement and gestures for you and Na-eun to follow them out of the waiting room you were in for so long. 
The whole building seemed so clean. With every corner lit, by natural light or artificial light, you could clearly see that every room, every piece of furniture and decor had been purposefully placed. You couldn’t help but have a stupid look of awe plastered on your face as you mindlessly follow your superiors over to the cafeteria.  
You turned your head over to Na-eun and gave her a tilt of the eyebrow, silently saying wow, this is where we work. 
With the turn of a corner and several silent strides, your little group made it to the cafeteria. 
The difference between your claustrophobic waiting room and this vast room was astonishing. With countless tables and romantic yellow lighting, this place almost resembled a five star restaurant. You’ve never seen a cafeteria as extravagant and clean as this before. However, to be fair, you’ve never had the experience of working with such a large corporation before. 
The managers led you to the serving station where you grabbed yourself a tray and proceeded to spoon small portions of rice and side dishes onto your plate. This cuisine was different to what you were used to, but nonetheless looked delicious. You were prepared for the small cultural differences, especially with the food, but from everything you’ve witnessed so far, the culture shock would be easier to overcome than what you’ve anticipated. 
“Have this soup y/n,” Manager Kim’s grating voice came from in front of you, interrupting your inner monologue. “It’s good for your complexion.” 
As Manager Kim hands over the bowl of soup, you feel the sleeve of his blazer brush up against your shoulder, causing the pit of your stomach to drop.
First day nerves. That was what this feeling was. You thought. 
You quietly thanked him with a small nod and walked briskly from the service line, trying to find where Na-eun went with the other two managers. Thankfully, they were just a step away and you quickly made your way over to the comfortable spot beside Na-eun. She gave you a small grin and you both followed your way to a table right in the middle of the room. 
Soon, all five chairs of the table got filled and sounds of chopsticks tapping and scraping against plates and bowls filled your ears. An awkward silence dominates your table as you start to pick at your food. 
“So,” Manager Chen cleared her throat, “after lunch I was thinking we should go to a meeting room and discuss Miss. Y/n’s role in our new project.”
“I was thinking the same for our new Intern Choi.” Manager An cut in, “What do you think, Manager Kim?” 
“It all sounds good. I will be accompanying Manager Chen to her meeting room as I wish to also further discuss the preliminary steps for our project.” Manager Kim looked from Manager Chen over to you. 
“Project?” You ask. 
“We’ve had a very successful year with our idol groups and we wanted to ride this success and start marketing in China. Recently, we’ve noticed a very large and growing Chinese audience for this group. I’m sure you’re very curious now, however we can discuss further details once we are in the meeting room.” Manager Chen replies while taking a sip of the water in her glass. 
Manager Chen appeared to be a very professional and respectable woman. With prominent collarbones and wide shoulders, she easily looked the part of a confident and adored manager. She needed minimal makeup to highlight her tall cheekbones, and even with a short heel on her feet she seemed to tower over you. However, her warm and comforting voice was what broke her intimidating demeanour. Just listening to her voice felt like you were back in your high school classroom with your favourite teacher explaining the motif of a sad love poem. 
After some more awkward conversations mixed with a few work discussions, the five of you finished the delicious food on your trays. 
“Please excuse me whilst I head to the restroom” Na-eun spoke up after your group finished clearing the table. 
“Please excuse me as well.” You quickly followed, bowing as you both ventured off to the washrooms. 
I should get her number so I’m not completely a loner in this place, you thought to yourself. And so, after a quick inner struggle to speak up, you finally decided to ask. 
“Hey, should we exchange contacts? I don’t wanna look like the newbie eating in the cafeteria alone after today.” You chuckled. 
“Totally!” Na-eun beamed. “I was actually thinking the same thing…” 
And so, you both quickly exchanged each other's contact as you made your way to the restrooms. 
The hall of the washrooms were narrow, hidden away from the main cafeteria. You walked in, deciding you only wanted to retouch your hair and makeup before your first official meeting. You carefully fix the loose hairs that somehow escaped the confines of your elastic and dab on a fresh layer of foundation before applying your lipstick which rubbed off while eating. Looking over at Na-eun, you see she’s quite in the zone redoing her mascara. 
“Hey, I’ll just wait for you in the hall.” You said. 
Na-eun gave you a disinterested nod back as she kept focusing on her mascara. 
You walked to the end of the hall, leaned against the wall, and pulled out your phone. Smiling, you opened the virtual Tamagotchi app and saw your little friend staring back at you, bouncing up and down. The bundle of virtual pixels happily bounced as you fed and bathed it, making you happier in return. Playing this game, you were so entranced with your phone that the abrupt closing of the washroom doors broke you out of your hypnosis fast, causing you to flinch and drop your phone. 
You looked up, only to see a brown haired man wearing a long sleeved black shirt. The hem of his sleeve fell, covering his hand as he bent down to pick up your phone. He stood back up, fully facing you now and you immediately recognized who he was. You weren’t a fool, of course you did all your research on the artists of JYPE before applying for the job. Looking down at you right now, holding your phone in his hand, was Bang Chan of Stray Kids. 
The wispy tufts of his brown hair bounced over his forehead as he stepped over to you. He smiled, his dimple poking out of his cheek, and handed your phone back to you. “I think you dropped this.”  
Blushing tomato red, you embarrassingly accepted the phone, trying not to make your shaking hands noticeable. It seemed like that failed, however, as you noticed him glance at your hands and dimple grow deeper. 
“Thank you.” You meekly chirped and lowered your head, still in awe that you somehow bumped into a JYPE idol in the bathroom hallway of a cafeteria. 
“It’s good that there’s no cracks.” Bang Chan said, looking in your eyes. 
You looked back into his eyes. His smile never left his face, and you physically felt the warmth radiating off his body like rays from the sun. Some boring, objective part of your brain knew this interaction only lasted a fraction of a second, but you swore that time froze.
“Hyung!” A distant voice called. 
Your trance was broken as Bang Chan looked over to the person calling his name. He turned back to you, politely bowed, and casually sauntered over to the man who called him. 
What just happened? Your inner monologue ran, still trying to process the embarrassing interaction. The scent of his cologne lingered, swirling the atmosphere around your body. 
Thankfully, you didn’t have too much time to dwell on this interaction as Na-eun finally opened the washroom doors and was making her way toward you. 
You and Na-eun trailed behind the managers until you reached the set of elevators. It was there where you had to unfortunately separate from your comfort work buddy as she hopped in the elevator across from yours with Manager An. The other two managers led you to the elevator at the end and pressed the button for your destination floor. The ride in the elevator was silent. You stood there, fiddling with your nails. 
Once the elevator gave the ding of arrival, the three of you headed down a hall where you presumed had the meeting room. 
Manager Kim took a look at the watch on his wrist. “We are a minute late, everybody should be there already. Enter silently and respectfully.” He said in a stern voice.
You reached the frosted glass door of the meeting room and entered through the already opened door. The managers followed behind you with Manager Chen being the last one in and closing the door. 
Your eyes widened at whom you saw.
There was Bang Chan, who sat in all his glory, staring right into your eyes with his mouth ajar. His shocked expression didn't last long, however, as he quickly composed himself to fit with the professional atmosphere of this room. 
But why was he here? You thought. He’s an artist, isn’t this a management meeting? 
Your inner monologue was broken by Manager Kim’s stern voice. “Y/n, why don’t you sit with me for today?” He asked with a slight tilt of the lips. His hand was hovering above your back, almost guiding you to the seat just right of the head chair. 
Your heart rate quickened. There was no way that you could handle sitting right beside a high position manager on your first day. You barely knew what your duties entailed, you definitely could not handle the pressure of this seat today. You whipped your head around to look for Manager Chen. She was already sitting in her seat, looking like she was right at home. 
“Manager Kim, if you don’t mind, I would like to sit in this position for today, '' a voice spoke up, “I have a lot of new ideas I’d like to share that are written in my notes.” 
Bang Chan.
He paused a brief second, eyes switching between you and Manager Kim, and raised his iPad to show the screen filled with words. 
“I don’t mind at all, go ahead.” Manager Kim monotonously replied. He then made his way to the head chair. 
You looked over at Bang Chan, trying to subtly send the most grateful facial expression over to him. He returned your look, slightly grinning as his fingers tapped on the screen of his iPad and sat down to the right of Manager Kim. You looked over to see Manager Chen gesturing you to sit in the chair beside her and swiftly made your way over. At your seat, she handed you a notepad and pen, both adorned with the JYPE logo. 
“Now, as of 1:02 p.m., September first, the meeting will officially begin.” Manager Kim clasped his hands together on top of the table. “As most of you already know, we are in the preliminary stages of planning a Chinese debut for our artist group ‘Stray Kids’. All we have right now is the estimated timeline, which is four months. We have a basic grasp of the concept we are working towards, however, as you all know, trends are always changing and growing. While we are working to create a new and original concept for Stray Kids, we also want the concept to gather as much audience reception as possible.” 
Wow. That was a lot to take in. Your hands struggled to keep up with writing down what Manager Kim was saying. You knew this relatively new group was really starting to explode in the past year, but a debut in another country? This group must work really hard to even have the company consider a step as risky as this. So this is why Bang Chan is also involved in this meeting. 
You peaked your head up from your notepad. Bang Chan sat across from you, one hand on his chin and the other one holding the pen to his tablet. 
Manager Kim then carefully discussed the duties that each group in the room would take. Many of the jobs were directly involved with developing the concept itself, such as producing music, concept art, and theme development. Your pen never took a break from gliding on the notepad as you hurriedly jotted down everything that Manager Kim said. 
Eventually, Manager Kim’s delegations moved to Manager Chen. “Manager Chen, I’ll let you take over from here.” 
“Thank you Manager Kim,” Manager Chen cleared her throat. “While my main job here was to market Korean comebacks towards the Chinese audience, this new project changes things up a bit. Now, not only will I be in charge of marketing to the Chinese audience, but I will also be directly in charge of the concept itself. I will be working carefully with our team in China to monitor the trends which we can incorporate into our debut.
“This is my new assistant, y/n,” She turned and gestured to you. You politely nodded your head. “She will be gathering information on useful trends and reporting back to me, as well as some translating. Please report any ideas that you deem useful to her by the end of every week for her to sort through and deliver to me.” 
You almost want to call Manager Chen crazy for giving you so much power, after all, you were only starting out as her assistant. Despite this, however, you were determined to go above and beyond with the new responsibilities given to you, after all, you knew that choosing to work in an organization as big as JYPE would take blood, sweat, and tears. 
After some clarifications given by Manager Chen and a few more questions directed at her, Manager Kim took the reins back in his hands. 
“Now, as I’m sure you all know, this is Bang Chan: the leader of Stray Kids. Although our management team is in charge of this debut, we like to include the opinions of artists whenever possible. He will make an appearance whenever he can and act as a representative of Stray Kids, sharing their ideas and opinions.” Manager Kim explained. 
Bang Chan politely introduced himself, and quickly went on to express some concerns of his members. He made sure that each concern was answered thoroughly by Manager Kim before moving on to the next. 
“As for our concept ideas,” Bang Chan’s soft brown eyes met yours, “will I have to report to y/n?” 
You felt your ears redden. 
“You could, yes,” Manager Kim straightened his back, “but if you find the weekly deadlines too much of a problem, you may just report to me or at any subsequent meeting.” 
“No worries sir,” Bang Chan’s eyes lingered on yours for a fraction of a second more before grinning at Manager Kim, “I’m always punctual.”  
The rest of the meeting consisted of more introductions and preliminary plans. After about an hour, everybody seemed satisfied with the contents of the meeting and were starting to pack up all their clutter on the table. You looked over at Manager Chen, silently asking what should I do next? 
Manager Chen smiled. “Let's head to my floor. I can give you a quick tour, you can get settled at your desk. I have some paperwork that I’m almost done with; I’m sure you’ll have no problem finishing it for me.” She already was standing up and straightening over the creases of her jacket. 
You stood up as well and followed behind Manager Chen like a lost baby duckling. You both made your way over to Manager Kim to bid farewell. You politely thanked him, said your goodbyes, and were about to leave when he stopped the two of you. 
“Manager Chen, let’s go out for drinks tonight.” Manager Kim took a look at the intricate watch on his wrist. “With our whole team, of course. It’ll be a welcoming night and we can get to know the people on our team better.” 
“That’s a great idea, Manager Kim,” Manager Chen nodded at his idea in approval. She turned on her iPad to quickly get a glimpse at her schedule. “What do you think y/n? Can you make it tonight? I know this is very last moment, but I think it’ll be a great opportunity for you to get to know your coworkers better.” 
“I should be able to make it.” You definitely could make it. You had no plans anyways. 
“Am I invited to this top secret party you’re all having?” A now very distinguishable voice came from behind you. Bang Chan stared at Manager Kim with a very mischievous expression. 
“Would your manager allow it?” Manager Kim questioned, knitting his eyebrows. 
“I’m on a diet, so I can’t drink alcohol or eat anything,” Bang Chan’s nose scrunched up in annoyance, “but I want to be as involved as I can. Just because I’m an idol doesn’t mean I can’t help behind the scenes as well.”
“Very well,” Manager Kim nodded with a fixed expression, “Let’s all meet at that restaurant about a block away west. I’ll go tell the others.” And with that, Manager Kim left you, Manager Chen, and Bang Chan to stand in awkward silence. 
“Well,” Bang Chan cleared his throat and clapped his hands together, “I’ll get going as well to do some work now, but it was nice meeting the both of you.” 
“You as well.” Manager Chen replied for the both of you and Bang Chan left soon after. 
Manager Chen then led you to the elevators again and you headed up yet another few floors to reach your destination. You nervously fiddled with your hair as you silently waited behind your boss, looking up at the smooth lines of her blazer every few seconds. The elevator doors dinged, letting you know of its arrival. The two of you swiftly headed out the elevators and walked to what you presumed was Manager Chen’s office area. You kept following behind Manager Chen in silence before you stopped in front of a set of doors that looked identical to the ones at the previous meeting room. Manager Chen opened the doors for you, and you headed in. 
You paused a step in, looking wide-eyed at the interior. The office was clean. A big glass desk sat right in the middle of the vast room in front of a huge set of windows. There were a couple of soft looking chairs placed right before the desk with a huge rug right underneath it. Over to your left, you spotted a water dispenser with a kettle right beside it. You stared at the room a bit longer before realizing you must have looked very stupid with that astonished look on your face. 
“Is this your office, Manager Chen?” You asked. 
“Yes. It seems that you like it,” She chuckled. You felt the heat rise to your ears. 
“Since you’ll be working so close to me, I’m sure you’ll be happy to come here more often.” 
“Thanks.” You awkwardly laughed. You blamed your bad response on the fact that you still weren’t familiar with the language, not your blatant awkwardness. 
Manager Chen made her way over to her desk, picking up a small stack of papers. “These are some letters I’ve received from several designer companies in China. Since we are still in the very preliminary stages of this project, we would like to keep our options open for the stylists here.” She picks an annotated letter from the pile. “I’ve translated and created a summary of the main points of this letter. There are a few more left which I believe I can trust you with. Just do as I did with this letter and add the sample pictures along with it.”
You quickly complied, taking the stack of papers from her hands. 
“I’ll show you to your new work space.” She led you out of your office and over to a cubicle that wasn’t too far away. It was considerably smaller compared to Manager Chen’s office, but you thought it had a certain coziness to it. Plus, working close to your coworkers could also boost your motivation. “Here is your desk, it’s not the most exciting thing, but you may bring photos or whatnot to decorate it. Now, I’ll let you settle in and get started on your work. You can meet me at my office around six, I can double check your work before we leave.” 
You thanked her before she left and immediately got started on your work. You diligently translated the whole of the letters before picking out the main points that matched with Manager Chen’s example. After this was done, you included the photos that came with each letter and slipped them into their own cozy folder. This work was monotonous, sure, but it was something you needed on your hectic first day here. 
You were so captivated by your work that you completely forgot about the time. The sun was starting to set, and you only remembered to look at the time after you tucked your last letter neatly in its folder. You briefly panicked, praying that you weren’t making your manager wait. Thankfully, it was only a quarter until six. You took the next fifteen minutes double checking your work, making sure to also check the time every once in a while. At exactly six, you left your desk and scurried over to the big doors of Manager Chen’s office. 
Knocking a couple times, you waited patiently to be let in. 
“Come in.” 
You let yourself in, handing the papers to your manager, then sat quietly in one of the chairs before her desk, crossing your fingers together. You fiddled with your thumbs, patiently waiting for Manager Chen to speak up. 
“Not bad, this is some decent work.” Manager Chen announced as soon as she finished glossing over your work. “I’ve noted some places that you can either fix or improve. I’ll scan them and hand you a copy tomorrow.” 
You let out a breath that you didn’t know you were holding. A tidal wave of relief washed over you as you let yourself relax further into your chain. Not bad, this is some decent work. You proudly repeated this moment in your brain. Although you were disappointed with the mistakes that you let slip through, to get somewhat of a compliment on your first day meant a lot to you. 
“Shall we get going now?” Manager Chen asked. 
You grabbed your bag and stood up. “I’ll let you lead the way.” 
                                                         _______
It seemed like all you were doing on your first day was following Manager Chen around like a lost puppy. The situation right now was no exception either, as you tried to copy her confident strides over to the restaurant a block down. You watched the busy rush hour streets and sidewalks fill with people, some people going home after a long day, some people going to party just like you.
Soon, after a few more minutes of walking, the both of you arrived at the small wooden doors of the restaurants. It seemed like the both of you were a bit late as Manager Kim was already waiting in front of the entrance with the rest of the team. Bang Chan was also there, head down looking at his phone. 
“Sorry we’re late, have you been waiting for long?” Manager Chen somehow sounded confident despite making everybody wait on her.
Her voice seemed to have caught everybody’s attention. You watched as Bang Chan swiftly turned his head up from his phone, his eyes making contact with yours. You immediately focused your eyes somewhere else, trying to casually play off the fact that your eyes subconsciously drifted to him. 
“We’ve only been waiting for a couple minutes.” Manager Kim gave a tight smile. “Let’s go in before you all get too cold.” 
Your little group of around ten people slowly entered the doors, filling the restaurant. Manager Kim called over a waitress, signaling that you had ten people in your group, and let the waitress lead you all to a long wooden table. 
The restaurant was nice, nothing too fancy, but that’s how you could tell the food was good. With dim lighting and tightly packed tables, it made you feel fuzzy and warm on the inside. 
However, your thoughts on the restaurant were soon broken by a hand on your shoulder. 
“Y/n, why don’t you sit with me?” Manager Kim’s lips curled up, “After all, this is a work gathering, how good of a boss would I be if I didn’t even treat my newest team member to a drink?” 
Your brain was in shambles. You seriously didn’t feel comfortable sitting with him all night. However, the logical side of your brain was saying something different. He’s just being nice as a boss. You don’t know how people in this country act anyways, stop being paranoid. 
It seemed like your inner turmoil was taking longer than necessary, as you heard another familiar voice speak up. 
“Manager Kim-” Bang Chan called out. 
“You don’t need to sit with me here, Bang Chan.” Manager Kim chuckled as he stared directly in Bang Chan’s eyes. “I’d rather not talk about work outside the office.”
You watched as Bang Chan’s eyebrows furrowed, looking back to you in reluctance. You smiled at him before turning your attention to Manager Kim. It was just one night, right? Plus, there’s no harm in establishing a good impression with your boss. 
“I’ll sit with you, Manager Kim.” You smiled, “thanks for offering.”
And so, you took your seat next to Manager Kim at the table. Bang Chan, who was to your left, looked askance at Manager Kim for a brief second before his facial expression did a complete 180. His familiar, boy-ish smile was plastered on his face like it was the most natural thing. 
When the menus came, everybody at the table — including you — started to order onslaughts of food and alcohol. After brief moments of casual chatter about topics such as the weather or how good the food was here, everything that was ordered arrived at your table.
You grabbed a can of beer and started sipping on it. You’ve drank before — of course — with your old friends at university, but it’s been at least a year since you last did. Better ease myself in. You thought. 
However, your preconceived plans were ruined when a small glass of clear liquor got pushed in front of you. 
“Y/n, surely you aren’t going to sip on that can all night.” The ends of Manager Kim’s lips curled up. 
“Wasn’t planning to, sir.” You replied while tipping the glass up and into your mouth. The bitter liquid burned your throat as it went down. You took a moment to recollect your surroundings. Seems like your tolerance was higher than you thought. 
“Bang Chan, do you not drink? Why not eat something then?” Manager Chen pointed to the food on the table. 
“No can do ma’am, I’m on a strict diet. My manager would kill me.” Bang Chan pointed to his glass of water. 
“In that case,” Manager Chen filled another glass, “Y/n, have another drink.” She slid the glass down the table in front of you. 
You gladly accepted your second drink, downing the alcohol in one go. Your eyes instinctively squeezed together as you felt your throat burn. From the tips of your ears to the ends of your toes, your whole body felt warm and alive. 
You lost track of the time. As your conversations got livelier, your head got fuzzier. You stopped counting your drinks after four, especially since so many people were eager to offer the new employee a drink. Although your vision was starting to blur, you could still think straight. I can still think, you thought to yourself, still — what a powerful buzz.
Your thoughts ran rampant in your mind as you stared at the lightbulb across the room. What a pretty light. So bright. Warm. 
“Y/n.”
Was the light calling your name? 
“Y/n!” 
Your eyes focused again and snapped away from the lightbulb. Where was the voice coming from? You slowly turned your head. Bang Chan.
“Hi.” You smiled. 
“Hi.” He smiled back. So bright. Warm. “It’s been hours and I haven’t even offered you a drink yet.” 
You tried to focus your eyes on his face as he slid the glass over to you. One more drink wouldn’t hurt your buzz, right?  
You gladly accepted, slowly moving your hand over to the glass to pick the clear liquid up. It went down in one go just like all the others. 
Huh? Was this water? 
You struggled to focus your eyes on the person who offered you the drink. “That was yummy.” 
“I bet it was,” the talking blur chuckled, “How about another one?”
You nodded, then took the glass he slid towards you. It’s funny how water flows even when in a cup. Water. You needed to pee. 
“Hey,” your words dragged out, “where’s uh, where’s the washroom?”
“Follow me. I’ll show you.” Manager Kim stood up and reached his hand out towards you. You didn’t want to take it, but it seemed like nobody was noticing his offer. 
Reluctantly, you took his hand and stood up, only to stumble down again. Did your knees not want to listen? 
“Whoa there, better hold on.” Manager Kim said. 
“No, I can walk. I-I can walk.” You let go of Manager Kim and tried to focus all your brainpower on moving your feet in a straight line. This tactic only worked for a second, however, as your knees gave in and you stumbled down. 
“It’s obvious that you can’t.” Manager Kim’s lips turned up. “It’s time for you to go home. I’ll take you back.” 
What? No. You didn’t want Manager Kim to take you home, not after all the awkward events of today and the general vibe from him. You tried to express your thoughts, but nothing came out of your mouth. 
“Manager Kim, you’ve been drinking!” Bang Chan’s voice came from some part of the room. “It’s not safe to drive, I’ll call a taxi for you.” 
“What about Y/n here? I’ll get a taxi for us both.” Manager Kim said. 
“I called my manager earlier to pick me up, we can drop her off along the way. It’s not a good idea to put two drunk people in a car. I’m completely sober right now, so let me do all the work.” Bang Chan grinned, patting Manager Kim on his shoulder. 
“Is that what you want, Y/n?” Manager Kim glared. 
You dizzily nodded. 
“Alright. In that case, I can call my own taxi later.” Manager Kim grimaced. 
“Stay safe, Manager Kim.” Bang Chan smiled. He turned to you. “My manager’s been waiting outside for a while now, do you want to leave now?” 
You nodded. You tried to start walking again, but your damn knees just wouldn’t listen. 
“Do you want to hold on to me?” Bang Chan knitted his brows together and held out an arm.
“I,” you slurred, “can walk.” You tried to start your feet again, only to end up stumbling down. 
“I know you can,” Bang Chan said as he reached his hands out to stabilize you, “but — ah —  I’m really tired after today. Can you hold on to my arm so I won’t fall out of exhaustion?” 
You agreed to help him. Bang Chan waved to everybody still at the table before leading the two of you out to a black SUV. He allowed you to stumble your way in the back seats first before sliding in himself. He asked you for your address, which took many tries for you to accurately type it into his phone. 
You leaned your head against the window, staring at passing blurred lights as Bang Chan’s manager started driving. Just being away from the loud and bright environment seemed to have cleared your head a little, but the pounding would not stop. You cursed yourself for being so irresponsible on your first day, especially because you were still alone in this new country.   
“Hey,” you felt a gentle tap on your shoulder, “want some water?” You looked over to see Bang Chan holding out a plastic bottle with the lid screwed off. 
You languidly reached your hand out for the bottle and gulped down as much water as you could in one breath before handing it back to him. The street lights started getting blurrier as you tried to fight exhaustion, the muscles in your eyelids starting to get more and more uncontrollable. 
“Y/n.” 
“Hmm?”
“Don’t fall asleep yet, we’re almost there. Ten more minutes.” 
You couldn’t hear anything after that, however, as you felt your eyes give up on you and your body fall into a deep sleep. 
“Y/n… Y/n.” A familiar voice called.
You fluttered your eyes open, your head pounding. Not knowing where you were, you surveyed your surroundings in a panic. It seemed as though you were in the back of a car… Parked outside of your apartment building? 
“Hey, you’re finally awake.” Bang Chan’s voice entered your ear. It all came rushing back to you; the restaurant, the drinking, entering the SUV. 
“How long have we been parked here?” Your groggy voice sounded inhuman. You had to clear your throat a couple times. 
“It’s only been twenty or so minutes. I’m not allowed to leave the car, are you able to get home alone? I can ask my manager to go with you.” Bang Chan scratched the back of his neck. 
“I should be fine.” You mumbled, a bit embarrassed to have fallen asleep in the car of a person you just met that day. This wasn’t even his car, it was his manager’s. 
“Hey… can I put my number in your phone?” Bang Chan avoided your eyes. “Just so you can tell me when you get home.” He quickly added. 
“Okay.” You awkwardly handed him your phone with your contacts already opened. He quickly typed his phone number in before handing it back to you. 
“Text me when you get home. Remember to lock your door, okay?” 
You thank both him and his manager before hurrying back to your apartment. Your head was still pounding unrelentlessly as you pressed the elevator button for your floor. The events of today were still unprocessed in your brain. You met a potential friend, which was a highlight. However, you also met two higher up managers and an actual idol, only to get hilariously drunk in the presence of. At least it’ll make a good story to tell my mom. You thought. 
In no time, you made it in your apartment and locked the door behind you, remembering what Bang Chan told you in the car. You texted the new number in your phone. 
Y/n: Hi. It’s y/n. I just entered my apartment.
Not even a minute later, your phone lit up, signaling a new text message. 
Bang Chan: great!! remember to lock the doooor hahaha ( ◕ω◕✿ )
You subconsciously grin at your phone. Cute. Throwing your phone haphazardly on your bed, you begrudgingly began your night routine. After washing up and throwing on a random shirt from your closet, you fell on your bed ready to sleep. You were about to close your eyes when your phone lit up again with a ding. It was another text.
Bang Chan: Hey… Just so you know, if you ever feel unsafe around the office just tell me okay? I’ll always try to help you in whatever way I can.

School Years: Together & Apart
    - March Year 19 through 10 April Year 22 -
2 March Year 19 Notes 1 (SJ)
Ten days after returning from the U.S., SeokJin and his father visit the principal’s office at his new school. SeokJin learns that he will start one grade lower due to the different education systems. SeokJin’s father grips his shoulder while the principal explains that school is a “dangerous place” that needs to be “tightly controlled.” He asks: “You know you have to keep me informed, right? You’ll be a good student, right?” SeokJin squeezes out a “yes” and his father lets go. Both ChangJun and the principal laugh. SeokJin looks down at their shining shoes, wondering from where the light is coming.
Note: SeokJin’s 25 June Year 19 entry in Notes 1 specifies that his father attended the same high school. JiMin’s 23 July Year 22 entry in Notes 2 reveals that, according to a comment he finds on an online news article, ChangJun and the principal were in school at the same time and fought with each other “as if it would only end when one of them dropped dead,” but they appeared to get along later due to politics.
3 March Year 19 BTS Universe Story: The Boy on the Threshold, ep.1
On the first day of school at Songju Jeil High School, the Dean of Students berates the six latecomers lined up outside: SeokJin, NamJoon, HoSeok, JiMin, TaeHyung, and JungKook. YoonGi arrives even later. The Dean assigns them one month of community service as punishment. When he notices SeokJin, he clears his throat and says he is letting them off because it’s the first day: they must all assemble after classes to clean the annex, a classroom turned into a storage room. This room becomes their meeting place and hideout even after their punishment is finished.
Note: Their punishment for being late is referenced in JiMin’s 12 March Year 19 entry in Notes 1, when he escapes to the old classroom again and finds the others already there. He observes that it feels as though they’ve been “hanging out together forever.” The punishment scene is also similar to a moment in the BTS Begins Middle Scene VCR. Although it includes a few extra students and cannot be confirmed as BU content, it does mirror the canonical detail of YoonGi arriving last.
28 May Year 19 Notes: Answer
In the classroom hideout, JungKook asks everyone what their dreams are because he has to write a paper about future hopes. SeokJin wants to become a good person, and YoonGi says it’s okay to have no dream. TaeHyung poses on a chair and says he’s going to be a superhero. HoSeok scolds him and adds that he wants to find his mom and live happily. JiMin asks him if he is unhappy now, and HoSeok pulls an exaggeratedly worried expression. “Is that how it works?” JiMin is flustered when HoSeok asks what his dream is and remembers that when he was in preschool he wanted to be president, but didn’t know what he wanted after that. Everyone looks at NamJoon, who shrugs and confesses that while he wants to say something nice, he doesn’t have a dream either and just wishes that his part-time job pays more. JungKook looks down at his assignment, divided into sections for “student” and “parent,” and wonders what he hopes to become. He can’t think of anything to write.
12 June Year 19 — The Sea Notes 1
YoonGi’s entry:
All seven boys cut school and decide to go to the sea. They have little money between them, so they must walk to the train station. As they leave, YoonGi almost bumps into JiMin and realizes that he is standing frozen with a trembling face. JiMin stares at a sign that reads “2.1km to Grass Flower Arboretum.” YoonGi flatly tells him that it’s too hot to go to the arboretum. He has an “instinctive feeling” that they should avoid it. He observes that JiMin walks away like a little kid, head bent and shoulders hunched.
JungKook’s entry:
The boys arrive at the beach. They hang around under a torn parasol until HoSeok holds up a discovery on his phone: a large rock that is supposed to grant your dream if you stand atop it and shout your dream out to the sea. TaeHyung encourages them to go. While they grumble in the heat on the long trek, JungKook reflects on how he had recently asked the others what their dreams were. (See 28 May Year 19.) None of them really have a dream to pursue.
YoonGi tells JungKook to stop biting his nails or else they’ll become like his. Then he asks JungKook what his dream is. Having never thought about it, JungKook doesn’t know. He hesitates and then asks what a dream is. HoSeok rattles off a few definitions from his phone. YoonGi questions, “How can something that you want to achieve most in your life and something that is unlikely to come true both be called a dream? … Don’t ever try to have a dream.” JungKook asks why. At his glance, YoonGi stops biting his nails and puts his hands in his pockets. “Because it’s tough having one.” JungKook is curious about why YoonGi bites his nails but doesn’t ask. He recalls that it has been a habit since his childhood to hurt himself. He remembers cutting his finger on a knife badly enough that his mom took him to the hospital, but she didn’t take care of him after they went home. His wound healed slowly because he kept pressing it; the pain helped him feel awake. Even now, he sometimes feels hollow.
TaeHyung asks how much longer they have to walk. HoSeok is puzzled, saying they should be close. They gaze around the empty, pebbled beach. JiMin sighs and reads aloud from an article on his phone. A resort will be built on this beach, and the construction company blew up the rock. They notice the cordoned off construction zone. They try to reassure each other to remain positive, but they all feel the disappointment of walking all that way for nothing. JungKook notices YoonGi biting his nails again and tries to stop him, but he is interrupted by a loud drilling noise. JungKook looks past him at the sea and all that remains of the dream-granting rock, the pebbles under their feet. “Is the world tough for you, too?” he asks, but YoonGi can’t hear him. JungKook screams again. “Do you want to give up on this world, too?” HoSeok and TaeHyung laugh at their mimed conversation. They all look out to the sea and shout their dreams. The drilling is so loud that they can’t hear each other. JungKook cannot even hear his own dream. When the noise stops, they cut off abruptly and laugh. SeokJin suggests that they take a photo. He sets the timer and runs to join their row, the sea behind them. They walk back to the train station. JungKook asks if he can keep the photo. SeokJin writes “June 12” on the back and gives it to him, telling him that his dream will come true. JungKook asks if SeokJin knows what he shouted to the sea, and SeokJin merely taps his shoulder and strides ahead.
BTS Universe Story : The Boy on the Threshold, ep.3
JungKook’s memory of the beach trip follows a similar structure to the scene in Notes 1, plus a notable addition. After they fail to find the dream-granting boulder, JungKook climbs up on the pier railing. He thinks: “I’ve always liked walking on the edge of walls or on top of lines. Focusing on centering my gravity means that I don’t really think of anything else, and the boundary—not quite a part of either place—always felt like where I should be.” Someone grabs his arm while he precariously balances. YoonGi tells him not to do that, and JungKook assures him that he won’t fall.
“YoonGi would often grab my arm when I walked on railings. The others would look after me, too, after seeing him do that. I liked their helping hands. It felt like they were telling me that I should go to them. That this wasn’t my place. Maybe their hands were why I walked on the railings.”
25 June Year 19 Notes 1 (SJ)
Alone in the classroom hideout, SeokJin finds a plant by the window. He takes pictures with his phone but doesn’t think they capture what the human eye sees. He notices that “HoSeok’s plant” is scribbled on the floor beneath the pot and then realizes that the window sills, walls, and ceiling are covered with graffiti and drawings, messages left behind by the students who once passed through that room. He wonders if there were past teachers who used violence and endless tests or students like him who ratted out their friends to the principal. Since his father also attended that high school, SeokJin looks for his name on the walls and finds it with a phrase written underneath: “Everything started from here.”
Note: TaeHyung, JiMin, NamJoon, and YoonGi discover several other familiar names near Kim ChangJun (SeokJin’s father) on the classroom wall in TaeHyung’s 23 July Year 22 entry from 7’s album Notes and the extended version in Notes 2.
30 August Year 19 Notes: Her
JiMin plays in HoSeok’s shadow while he is on the phone, reflecting on how HoSeok has accompanied him on the two-hour walk home since the beginning of the school semester. JiMin eventually realized that HoSeok didn’t live in the same direction but never questioned him, simply hoping that their time walking together would stretch the day out a little longer. HoSeok finishes on the phone and chases after him while the cicadas sing and their ice creams melt. Suddenly, JiMin is afraid, wondering how many of these days are left.
20 March Year 20 Notes 1 (TH)
TaeHyung sneaks up on NamJoon in the hallway by their classroom hideout. He stops when he hears SeokJin’s voice inside, apparently informing the principal about how TaeHyung and YoonGi had ditched school and got in a fight over the past few days. SeokJin throws open the door, phone in hand, and looks flustered to see NamJoon standing there. TaeHyung hides in a corner and is shocked to hear NamJoon assure him, “It’s OK. There must’ve been a good reason.” HoSeok and JiMin find TaeHyung in the hallway, and HoSeok pulls him into the classroom. NamJoon beams at TaeHyung as though nothing strange has happened. Believing that NamJoon “must have his reasons” because he is more intelligent and mature, TaeHyung decides not to tell anyone about the conversation he overheard.
15 May Year 20 Notes 1 (NJ)
NamJoon visits the classroom hideout on his last day of school. Two weeks prior, his family decided that they needed to move due to complications with his father’s health and their overdue rent. NamJoon tries to write a message on a piece of paper. He scribbles “I must survive” before the pencil lead snaps. He crumples the paper and writes in the dust on the window instead.
“No farewell message would be enough to let the others know how I felt. At the same time, no farewell message was needed to make myself understood. ‘See you again.’ It was a wish, rather than a promise.”
Note: “I must survive” is a recurring message tied to NamJoon in the BU MVs. See also 17 December Year 21.
Tumblr media
7 June Year 20 Notes: Persona
TaeHyung’s two month old puppy Dubu slips out of the leash and disappears while he is distracted on his phone. TaeHyung runs around the neighborhood looking for him, first angry at the puppy and then blaming himself. When Dubu returns on his own, TaeHyung is filled with the unfamiliar feeling that he is someone who can be relied on.
11 June Year 20 BTS Universe Story: The Boy on the Threshold, ep.5 Everyone’s Place
In the classroom hideout, JungKook listens to YoonGi playing the piano. The sound of the music makes him feel as if YoonGi understands how he feels and is trying to console him. The Dean of Students forces the door open, demanding why they are there. He berates and slaps JungKook, knocking him to the floor. YoonGi steps between them and shoves the teacher’s shoulder. The dean warns him that he had better be prepared for the consequences of putting his hands on a teacher and then leaves. Despite his throbbing cheek, JungKook smiles because it is the first time someone has protected him, and the feeling of getting closer to YoonGi makes him giddy. For the next two weeks, YoonGi does not come to school.
25 June Year 20 Notes 1
JungKook’s entry:
JungKook tries to play the piano in the classroom hideout, unable to make it sound like YoonGi did. He reflects on the rumor that YoonGi was expelled after the events of 11 June and wonders if YoonGi would still be here playing the piano if JungKook had not been there that day when the teacher appeared.
YoonGi’s entry:
Breathing hard, YoonGi arrives at his bedroom, removes a half-burned piano key from an envelope in his desk drawer, and throws it into the trash can. He remembers a day four years ago when he returned to their burned down home and found a skeleton of the piano where his mother’s room used to stand. He noticed several piano keys on the ground and took one of them, wondering what note it was and how many times her fingers touched it. In the present, YoonGi thinks how unbearable living under his father’s rule is and recalls what happened that day: he is officially expelled from school. He picks up the piano key again and hurls it out the window.
“I couldn’t hear the piano key hit the ground. Now I’d never know what note it made. It’d never make a sound again. I’d never play the piano again.”
17 July Year 20 Notes 1 (SJ)
At the end of the last school day before summer vacation, SeokJin tries to leave quickly but is hailed by HoSeok and JiMin. No one knows that he was pressured by the principal and revealed their hideout, which led to JungKook and YoonGi being discovered (11 June) and the latter’s expulsion (25 June). HoSeok wishes SeokJin a good vacation and to keep in touch, but he can’t reply.
“My first day at this school crossed my mind as I passed through the school gate. We were all late and got punished. But we were together, so we could laugh together. I had ruined all those memories we shared.”
Note: Variations of the sentiment “we can laugh when we’re together” recur throughout BU.
15 September Year 20 Notes 1 (HS)
In the hospital emergency room, HoSeok wants to explain how JiMin had a seizure at the bus stop to his mother, Sim SeonMi. When the doctors wheel JiMin’s bed out, HoSeok begins to follow until SeonMi thanks him and touches his shoulder. He feels like she has drawn a line between them that he cannot cross. He falls to the floor, and when he looks up, JiMin’s bed is gone.
Note: The name of JiMin’s mother is specified in his BTS Universe Story arc, Stopped Time. JiMin’s 11 May Year 22 entry in Notes 1 reflects that he blacked out at the bus stop after seeing the window of the Grass Flower Arboretum shuttle bus open. His 12 August Year 22 entry in Notes 2 reveals the real cause of JiMin’s seizure at the bus stop: he sees the boy that he left behind at the arboretum warehouse on 6 April Year 11. Though the boy’s empty eyes no longer speak to JiMin, this chance encounter awakens his memories of that day.

JiMin, heavily medicated, has lost track of how long he has been back in the hospital. But he considers this a special day because he lies to the doctor for the first time about not remembering anything.
Note: He is lying about not remembering what triggered his seizure at the bus stop on 15 September and/or what happened at the Grass Flower Arboretum when he was a kid (see Notes 2 comments above). This lie is also referenced in his 11 May Year 22 entry in Notes 1.
30 September Year 20 Notes 1 (JK)
A teacher hits JungKook with an attendance book when he refuses to admit that he still visits the classroom hideout, reminding him of when YoonGi was beaten. Later, JungKook stands outside the room and imagines that the others are waiting for him on the other side. He opens the door to only find HoSeok, clearing out what remains of their belongings. HoSeok walks him out, and JungKook realizes that those days are gone and will never come again.
25 February Year 21 Notes: Her (HS)
HoSeok watches himself dance in the mirror. He has danced since he was around twelve and discovered an ecstasy that came from inside himself. Outside of the mirror, HoSeok is a person who collapses everywhere and takes medicine he doesn’t need, who smiles even when he hates it and isn’t happy. But when he dances, he truly becomes himself, casting away all that weighs him down and feeling that he can become happy.
2 May Year 21 Notes: Persona (JK)
Biking along the Yangjicheon riverbank, JungKook thinks about how his friends left him one by one and that no one at home or in the world smiles at him anymore. He stops in the shadows under a bridge. Nobody comes to this kind of ruined place, and maybe that is the reason no one comes to him either. He feels most comfortable alone in the complete darkness where no one will look for him and wants the moment to never end.
9 August Year 21 Notes: Persona (SJ)
SeokJin walks along a Los Angeles beach and photographs the ocean. It has been a year since he fled Songju and moved to his mother’s family’s home, where he grew up as a child. He doesn’t photograph people anymore and didn’t bring any photos from high school with him, afraid to remember who he was at that time or to wonder about how his friends are doing and whether they still think of him.

17 December Year 21 Notes 1 (NJ)
This lengthy entry details events that transpired since the autumn of Year 20 when NamJoon’s family moved to the village, framed by moments on 17 December itself as NamJoon leaves on his own. His family chooses this village because it has a nearby hospital for his ailing father and employers who will hire someone without a high school diploma. NamJoon serves as a delivery boy for an eatery, competing for work with the other local boys. They grow a strange sense of solidarity, and he privately dubs one of them “TaeHyung,” even though the boy’s discontent, outward behavior is more akin to YoonGi’s. (Quotation marks added to the name here for clarity.) Competition slackens when snow falls in winter. NamJoon and “TaeHyung” are the only ones poor enough to risk the road up to the mountain town’s rest area when orders are phoned to the village below. On an afternoon forecast to have heavy snowfall, the restaurant owner dismisses “TaeHyung” due to his bruised face and gives the deliveries to NamJoon. The old delivery scooter fishtails on NamJoon’s third trip down the mountain, throwing him off. More anxious about the scratched scooter than his cut ankle and aching body, NamJoon finally gets it to restart and returns to the eatery. “TaeHyung,” who has been hanging around this whole time, approaches and asks for a favor. Before he can answer, NamJoon receives a call from his mother relaying that his father went outside alone and fell, requiring a trip to the hospital. NamJoon understands that his father was only trying to keep his dignity but is still frustrated because he can’t earn any more much-needed money this day. He hands “TaeHyung” the keys and leaves to take his father to the hospital.
The next day, NamJoon learns that “TaeHyung” was in a fatal accident during one of the deliveries up the mountain. The police officer blames him for being a poor driver and not wearing a helmet. NamJoon does not speak up that he has never seen the helmet the owner now has placed out on the counter. He visits the scene of the accident, thinking that the white outline on the road could be his if he was the one to make the next delivery—just as it could be his family mourning in the village instead of “TaeHyung’s” mother. On a later trip carrying his father home from the bus stop, NamJoon pretends not to hear his father’s frail voice over the noise of barking dogs. A week after that, NamJoon is making steady deliveries up the mountain. During what is ultimately his last delivery, he speaks with a stranger at the rest area, who cautions him to take care. “Do you know what’s really dangerous? Calcium chloride and wet leaves, not the snow itself,” the stranger blurts as NamJoon departs. NamJoon drives carefully back, not looking at the scene of the accident. This is not out of safety, as he tries to convince himself, but guilt: guilt for surviving, for his relief of being the one alive, for not defending “TaeHyung’s” driving skills. He also wonders if he is “a hypocrite pretending to have a guilty conscience.” Because he scattered wet leaves and sprinkled calcium chloride to prevent the road from icing over where he fell that afternoon, believing that he would be making the next delivery. If he did not do both those things, would “TaeHyung” be alive?
Mind and body numb, NamJoon makes it home from the delivery detached from the world around him. The barking dogs snap him out of the daze, and he remembers his father’s words that he pretended not to hear and dwelled on daily despite trying not to think about them: “Go, NamJoon. You must survive.” The next morning (17 December), NamJoon sneaks away to the bus stop. He is running away from his family’s misfortunes, from his own resignation to his fate, from poverty. The bus is scheduled to arrive in Songju in a few hours—the city he left with no notice and is returning to once more with the same. NamJoon wonders if his old friends still live there and how they are doing. On the frosted window, he writes with his finger: “I must survive.”
Note: The village boy’s real name is JongHun according to NamJoon’s 12 June Year 22 entry in Notes 2, which also reveals that he visited JongHun’s home to give his condolences before he left town.
1 February Year 22 Notes: 7 (SJ)
Summoned by his father without explanation, SeokJin flies back to Korea from Los Angeles. Although he has addresses in both LA and Songju, neither place feels like his home.

The Simple Pleasures
Tumblr media
Y'all horny bitches out here really liked my first part so, thanks to a lot of requests, here's part two! Months later but life's a bitch so enjoy some smut because we all need it at this point
After finding out your date, the college student Kuroo, had an OnlyFans and quite enjoying its content you called him and told him to pick you up in 30 minutes. Will you manage to keep your lust under control until you get to his place or do you get stuck on the road? (spoiler alert: you park at a gas station)
Genre: Once again it's just pure smut but it has cute moments Pairing: Kuroo x reader Kinks: Actually pretty vanilla, dirty talking, car sex in a public parking lot Words: 8700
Part 1
Clothes were thrown back on and your hair was once again brushed, you had even changed underwear to hide the mess they had become after what you had done on the couch. All the while your eyes flicked to the phone despite the 30 minutes not even being close to being up. But the time that had passed felt like an eternity and it didn’t help with the nervous feeling you had in your chest all the while. The only thing you were able to do was get ready in front of the mirror and go over what had happened, and what will happen, in your head. And when you finally felt ready, you still had 10 minutes left.
You had planned to use the time to cool down, calm yourself and not let it all get to your head. But as soon as you sat down on your couch, your phone was in your hands. You wanted to scroll through social media but instead the onlyfans app teased you, sitting there on your screen. You remembered that while you had scrolled through a couple of Kuroo’s posts, you had hardly seen them all. And what they could contain was too tempting of a question to not find out. And after all, the content was worth $15 and you shouldn’t waste good money.
So you scrolled through it, mindlessly, watching and reading every post. You were tempted to play any video you came across but if you did, you were afraid that you’d get stuck again and miss the real deal pulling up in front of your house. So you held yourself back, though you gave them a longing look whenever they did pop up. And what had started with trying to cool down was now just riling you up once again, pressing your knees together while bouncing one leg in anticipation. Post after post of him in various stages of dress. Some blunt in their intentions, others teasing the viewer with giving them just barely what they wanted. Luckily, it did make those 10 minutes feel like mere seconds.
A notification popped from the top of the screen.
“Come outside”
You didn’t even have to look at who it came from, you already knew.
There was no hesitation when you closed your phone and put it in your pocket, getting up hastily from the couch and immediately heading for the door. You didn’t even bring your bag, just grabbed your jacket as you passed by and opened the door. Suddenly the cold night air hit your body, giving somewhat of a relief compared to the heat that had spread through your blood. And there he was, sitting in the car with the window down.
He leaned back in his seat, his elbow leaning on the door frame and the lights turned on. The yellow light contrasted the blue hue that night brought and outlined him perfectly. His headlights were still on and the red tail lights were reflecting on the black surface of the car. Even from a distance, you could see the smile form on his face as he saw you leave your home. He had been watching the door since he sent the text, just waiting to see you again.
“Jump in!” He half-yelled from his car, giving his car door two light smacks before he retreated back into the car fully, getting ready to drive as soon as you sat down. You noticed even from a distance that he had the radio playing in the background.
You laughed at his enthusiasm and made sure to lock your door quickly, throwing your jacket just lightly over your shoulders to not get too cold. But as soon as you checked the door once and were satisfied, you turned around and jumped down the singular step to the walkway out from your house. You jogged over to his car as he pulled the window back up, running around to the other side while holding onto the collar of your jacket to make sure it didn’t fall off. Opening the door to the car, you once again sat down in the passenger seat that you had occupied just about an hour ago. Its leather had cooled down since then and felt icy against your thighs but it was just as comfortable as you remembered it.
Kuroo watched you as you sat down, just as casually as he had watched you leave his car last time. One hand on the steering wheel, the other on his thigh. He watched quietly as you pulled off your jacket, throwing it in the backseat before you finally made eye contact. His eyes shone when he smiled at you, though there was something else flickering in them, something that wasn’t as innocent as it had been last time.
“Hey.”
“Hey.” You replied just as simply as he had, holding the eye contact as you did you while smiling back at him. You had even humorously copied his tone, teasing his ‘smooth’ talk. There was a certain tension in the air, a question on how you should approach this situation. But somehow, it wasn’t as awkward as you had feared. Instead, you felt giddy, butterflies fleeing from your stomach and up into your chest.
The silence between you, leaving space for the music to fully envelop you, only lasted a couple of seconds before you both laughed and broke the intense stare. He looked ahead, to the road and you decided to check your phone quickly to get a feel for the time. Another quiet beat passed.
“You ready to ride?” —he turned his head back to look at you, reaching one hand up to turn off the lights— “In more ways than one?”
Click. The whole car was submerged in darkness. You looked over to him again and he gave you an eyebrow wiggle in the darkness that made you laugh. He clearly felt the tension in the air and you were thankful he was an expert at breaking that kind of stuff. Just another thing you really liked about him.
“I sure hope so.” You joke back, but the way you said it did betray you, showing the nervousness in your voice. Though you may have been confident over the phone, it’s a totally different thing to actually be here.
“Not to worry. We won’t do anything if you're not feeling it. If you want to, we could just drive around and talk. I could show you a route I usually take when I can’t sleep, the lights are really beauti—”
“—No!” You suddenly interrupted, the outburst surprising him. “I… I want to.” You had to explain yourself which was embarrassing but you hoped the darkness might hide the blush. Though you also knew that the darkness couldn’t hide the desperation in your voice. You had clearly been devastated if he thought you didn’t want him to fuck your brains out.
He had stopped every movement the moment you spoke and looked at you with his mouth partially opened. But after you had finished what you wanted to say and it registered in his head what you meant, a shit-eating grin formed on his face. While he had had girls beg for him before, somehow the tone of your voice made pride swell in his chest. He didn’t know what you had found on his onlyfans but it was clear you knew exactly how you wanted him and he always said he aimed to please.
“Alright. Sounds good. But I need to do something before we get going.” You looked at him, a little worried about what he meant. But he reached his hand out towards you and you didn’t move. You thought he was going to cup your face again like he had done when he kissed you last time, but he reached behind your head, letting his fingertips drag across the sensitive skin beneath and behind your ear. You leaned a little forwards to give him space as his fingers lightly grabbed the back of your neck and head. The feeling was distracting but light enough to send a shiver down your spine. And then he pulled.
Your lips met over the center console as he had leaned it to meet you in the middle. His head was tilted a little to comfortably kiss you and you naturally did the same to the opposite, closing your eyes as he had done. His lips felt the same as they had done earlier tonight, but instead of butterflies fluttering, it was now like electricity bouncing between you. His lips were hot and soft to the touch, slowly but passionately connecting to yours. You did your best to reciprocate, one of your own hands moving up to carefully touch his neck with the tips of your fingers. After a moment, you could feel his tongue teasingly peek out from his lips. You knew what he wanted and you happily opened your mouth, letting your tongues play with each other.
The feeling built up within you and after a particularly pleasurable move, you couldn’t help but let out a quiet moan. You knew Kuroo had heard it too as he pulled back from the kiss, disconnecting from you and letting the sound from the radio tune back in again. He chuckled as he let his eyes wander over your face, which was now looking part confused and part disappointed. You looked needy.
“I can’t fucking wait to make you moan properly.” He said quietly, his eyes meeting yours. And you could see he meant it. You didn’t even know what to say, evidenced by the fact that your mouth just fell open ever so slightly. At the sight, he began laughing and pulled his hand away, sitting properly in his seat once again. “You look just like the first time I kissed you.”
“I do not!” You protest even though you couldn’t possibly know how you had looked back then. “Plus, you can’t just say that and expect me to know what to say!”
You leaned back in your seat while he shifted out of parking, finally getting the car to move out of the space in front of your house. At the movement, you had to stop pouting and instead put on your seatbelt.
“Why not? I thought you liked the dirty talk. I mean why else would you call me all hot and bothered after you found my onlyfans. It’s how I act in my videos.” You could hear the smile in his voice, his eyes now focused on the road in front of the car as he sped up.
The orange road lights sped past the car, casting long shadows along the road. The only lights inside the car was the dashboard, though it didn’t reach further than Kuroo’s hands. Your eyes drifted to the road, noticing the lack of cars out at this time. It was comforting knowing it was just you and him out here right now. You could still feel your lips tingling after his kisses. The whole scene felt a little surreal in the way car rides at night did.
“Okay, fine, I do like it.” You admitted, exasperated as you leaned your head back. Mostly because he was right.
“Of course you do.” Cocky bastard. “But what was it that made you so wet?” He didn’t even glance your way as he spoke.
“What do you mean? Isn’t it kinda obvious…” You lowered your voice a little, embarrassed to be asked such a specific question. And you knew that if you had to explain yourself, the images you had seen of him would start flashing in your mind again.
“Sure, but I want to hear you say it.” He finally looked over to you briefly, moving his hand from the gear stick to your thigh before he looked back to the road. “Let’s me know exactly what you want me to do to you.”
He squeezed your thigh softly to make a point and you couldn’t help but press your legs together in response. You had to take a moment to reorganize your thoughts before you could speak again.
“Well, I… I dunno.” You hesitated to tell him, you didn’t quite know why. But you tried to explain anyway. “I liked the way you… talked I guess.”
“Talked?”
“Yeah. You sounded so certain, I trusted you even though you weren’t there. And how easy you made it to follow whatever you asked me to do.” –You closed your eyes as you kept talking, thinking back to when you were laying on the couch– “And the little growl to your voice was so fucking hot. Not to mention your hands, I kept imagining how they’d travel up my thighs and touch me. And when you started to get into it, you could hear how turned on you were. T–that’s what I liked about your videos.” You opened your eyes again, remembering where you were, and looked to him.
He was just grinning, having leaned even further back in his seat comfortably. His hand was still on your thigh and you could feel how warm it was as he had grabbed onto you just a little harder.
“Oh, so you’re into that type-a thing, huh. That’s cute.” –He seemed pleased with himself while he spoke–“I can do that kind of stuff. I mean, if we’re going to be honest here, I’ve wanted to have you under me since the moment you opened your mouth when we first met.”
“Seriously?” You didn’t quite know how to react, a blush creeping up your neck.
“Yeah, of course. You were so well spoken and sweet, I wanted to hear how you’d sound all fucked up. When you’d cum three times already and I hadn’t even put my dick in you yet kind of fucked up. I wanted to hear you mewl and beg for me but being unable to make a proper sentence.” He let his eyes flicker to you for a moment again “I want to see you unravel under me.”
You sat quietly for a minute, his words burning inside of you like hot iron, melting and dripping down to your core.
“How long until we’re at your place?” You ask, staring straight ahead.
“Mh… Maybe 20 minutes? Why?” He asked, his eyes not leaving the road either. But he had a feeling he knew where you were going with this.
“Pull over…”
“Oh? Why? Are you getting a little too impatient, kitten?” He smirked, his hand slowly traveling up your leg.
“Yes. So unless you want to become a traffic hazard, you should find somewhere to pull over.” You seemed determined in your request, maybe because you had finally made up your mind.
“Alright, alright. Give me a second, princess.”
He takes his hand off of your thigh, letting it hold onto the wheel as he waited to find a good place to park the car. The two of you drove along the road in a heavy silence, one filled with hot tension that circulated in the car with each breath one of you took. It would be impossible for you to say how long it lasted, your mind a little hazy, but it must’ve been less than 20 minutes since Kuroo turned on the turning signal without any houses in sight. His eyes were focused on a glow by the side of the road, a gas station which was still open in the dark of night. Your eyes followed the road as the car turned off from the main road, your heartbeat sounding louder than the rhythmic beats of the music. The light suddenly shifted as the road lights stopped appearing beside the car, engulfing it in darkness and laying like a heavy blanket over you. Only did it lift when you drove up closer to the station, it’s bright light blue shine partially lifting the darkness.
You realized Kuroo’s plan only when he had gotten off the main road, your eyes widening as you turned your head to look at him.
“Wait are you going to park here?” There was a surprised and worried tone in your voice.
“I planned on it. You wanted me to park as soon as possible, so here we are.” He sounded calm in contrast to you, driving up to the allotted parking lot just meters away from the building.
“But it’s still open, what if someone comes outside?”
“At this time? I doubt it, even if they did, I don’t think they’re gonna look through the window. That’d be pretty intrusive don’t you think? But… If you’re not into it, then we could check somewhere else, dear. Though I dunno how far away that is.”
He parked the car on one of the spots, the front of the vehicle facing the road you had just been driving on and with the gas station visible in the rearview mirror. He made sure the car was properly parked before turning to you, placing one hand on the back of your chair like people do when they reverse. But instead, he looked at you, waiting for a response. A decision needed to be made.
“Well…”—you bit your lower lip briefly—”Fine. But I blame you if we get caught.” You tried looking threatening but he just smiled back at you, forcing you to hold back your own smile. At the decision, he took off his seatbelt and you quickly followed after.
“That’s fair. But c’mon…”—He turned back to you and leaned in, the light from the gas station illuminated half of his face and made his cat-like eyes gleam in the otherwise dark space—”Isn’t the risk a little thrilling.”
“I just think you like the attention, Kuroo, from what I’ve seen from your onlyfans.” You teased, leaning in to meet him midway between the seats.
“Touché, at least I know you like watching.” He retorted a final time before he pressed his lips to yours, shutting the both of you up as you once again melded together.
The car’s engine was still running, a soft hum heard underneath the bass of the song playing at that very moment. But it wasn’t like the two of you were listening, instead too focused on the other person. The kisses exchanged were much like the earlier ones, hot and a little demanding. His hand had left your seat and instead found its place on the side of your neck, much like before, but this time it traveled even further up, lacing your hair between his long fingers. The feeling made goosebumps cascade down your arms and neck, forcing you to take a sharp intake of air through your nose.
The makeout session was dizzying, had you let your emotions lead then you would’ve said you even struggled with what side was up, too lost in the feeling to care about that or anything else. Or at least you thought so, until your back and neck started to ache, not used to the weird angle you were kissing in. And having to lean over the middle part forced you to put a lot of weight on your back muscles. At first, it was just a small tension and you ignored it, but when you started to feel the lactic acid course through said muscles you had to pull away, as much as you hated it.
“Mgh? You okay?” Kuroo asked caringly, almost whispering.
“Yeah I’m totally okay. Or, well, I am but leaning like this is getting really uncomfortable.” You said, leaning back in your seat and stretching your muscles to help relax them again.
“Oh! Well that’s an easy fix then.” He seemed relieved that it wasn’t anything too bad.
“Hm?”
“Come here.” He patted his thighs with both hands, giving you a deceivingly innocent grin. You looked at him like he was crazy.
“What? You want me to climb over there? I’m not that graceful.”
“Oh come on, not everything about sex can be graceful or the hottest thing you’ve ever seen, you gotta be able to laugh and look a little funny. Plus, it’ll be super hot when you’re actually on my lap, no?”
“... You drive a hard bargain, sir. … Fine.”—You give in, since his idea did indeed sound enticing— “But you gotta help me over.”
“Say no more, kitten.” He smiled and held out a hand for you to grab.
You took his hand and crawled up on your seat before carefully doing your best to move over the centerpiece, all the while trying to keep your balance. You felt a little silly doing the whole thing but Kuroo was there to help you the whole time, being nothing but suppotiv—
“Hey, be careful with the seat.” He interrupted your appreciative thoughts with a comment, obviously just teasing you.
“Shut up, asshole.” You tried to hide your laugh, you had always found his type of humor amusing.
“Wouldn’t dick be a better insult in this situation? With context and all.”
“You’re so annoying.”
You finally managed to get over to his side, letting your ass fall onto his lap. Suddenly the light of the gas station was in front of you, only covered by Kuroo and his seat. But this gave him the most ethereal outer glow to him and if he wasn’t so annoying, you would probably have been awestruck. You let go of his hands, using one of them to cover his mouth while the other was placed on his shoulder. Kuroo’s hands found your thighs, starting just above your knee and running upwards. The soft friction of his hands on your thighs as they moved made heat move along with them and settle comfortably in your lower belly. You pushed your ass down a little in appreciation, grinding against his black jeans. At the movement, you could feel his smile beneath your hand.
“Hah, maybe I should keep my hand like this while we continue.” You challenged him with your words, though it wasn’t obviously serious. But of course you wanted to push back a little, you couldn’t just let him have his way, it would be too embarrassing to just let him take your control. It was a little scary. But Kuroo didn’t mind, he just had to make you want to give your control to him.
His hand went up and over your ass, sadly not spending any more time there as he moved to hold your hips in his big hands. He sank down a little in his seat, giving himself some space to move his hips. You looked at him, a little confused as he had shifted down every so slightly. Until he lifted his hips and pushed you down with his hands, grinding against your clothed core. But the friction was enough to shoot pleasure up your spine, surprising you. The sound you made was halfway between a gasp and a moan, the hand over his mouth lifting from his mouth. He took the moment to grab the wrist of the hand which had covered his mouth and held it softly, all the while still rolling his hips against you.
“Awh, baby don’t be so mean.” He leaned in to give a light peck to the corner of your lips, then your cheek and temple while chuckling. You gave in and giggled at his ticklish kisses. His actions seemed innocent but while you were busy, he moved his mouth to your ear. “And don’t you want my mouth all over you?”
You froze, the words in your ear reminding you of the videos he published. The voice dropped down from his normal one, to the point where the rasp he always had in his voice was elevated. And with that, imagery from how you had imagined him eating you out inside this very car flashed in your mind. It sent a strong shiver down your spine, making your back arch ever so slightly. Kuroo couldn’t help but feel it.
“Ah, so we liked that did we?” He smirked as he gauged your reaction, taking you in as your confident facade fell and instead you looked at him with big, almost innocent eyes.
His lips returned to your skin, kissing your neck with gradually hotter kisses. What started out as soft, slow pecks turned into open mouthed kisses. His tongue dragged across your skin, from the base of your neck to just under your ear. Your breathing became deep, only shuddering when he stopped to give a certain spot more attention. He was slow in his movement, caring and loving as he sucked on your neck, his own breathing feeling cool compared to your hot skin. And while your mind was focused on his lips against your neck, you were also aware of his hand letting go of your wrist and moving to your waist and his thumb moving under the edge of your shirt. It rubbed small circles on your skin, getting you used to the feeling. But since you didn’t react or stop his hand, he let it run further up, soon his whole hand was traveling up your side. It lifted your shirt with it, letting the air in the car seep under and onto your skin. Your mouth was slightly parted while your eyes were half lidden, following the mess of black hair moving around your neck and upper chest.
“Can we take this off?” He pulled away briefly and met your eyes.
“Ah, sure…” You sounded a little breathy as you replied.
“And… the shorts too?” He asked, greedy to see more of your body, all the while smiling innocently.
“Fine.” You smiled back at him, running a hand through his messy, black locks. He didn’t waste any time pulling your shirt up and off you, his golden eyes roaming the new area of skin with a hungry look. He even managed to sneak a couple kisses in along your collarbone as his hand fiddled with the buttons to your shorts. You grabbed his hands and he looked up at you, a little confused. “But your clothes gotta go too.”
You sounded a little embarrassed at asking him to strip, but it was only fair. And it wasn’t like Kuroo had any problem with it. He didn’t even reply and just pulled his shirt off without hesitation, throwing the white T-shirt into the backseat somewhere. You had already seen his upper chest in many pictures, but as you were now almost pressed against it, it was much more amazing. You watched his chest rise and fall in deep, slow breaths. He didn’t seem nearly as pent up as you were, but you could already feel something press against your shorts which told you a different story. Maybe it wasn’t noticeable thanks to his fitness or maybe he was just able to keep his cool better than you. Not that it mattered when you splayed your hands across his pecs, feeling his heat creep into the palms of your hands. His confident smile showed his teeth as he watched you stare.
But despite how much he enjoyed your awed looks, he once again took hold of the upper edge of your shorts, his fingers quickly undoing the button and zipper. You let him, gliding your hands back up to his shoulders to give him a better view. Once your shorts were undone he started trying to pull them down, despite still having you in his lap.
“Maybe this lap thing wasn’t such a good idea.” You mutter, raising yourself onto your knees slightly to help him.
“Eh, it’s fine. Just… lean back a little.” —He kept looking down, pulling on your pants the best he could without hurting you— “And pull up your knees to your chest.”
You didn’t expect it to work but did your best to comply, once again sitting down on his lap as you started to lean back. You even started to shift so you could pull up your knees like he asked. But before you could get the shorts off, you leaned back a little mor—
HOOOONK
Your back pressed against the steering wheel and activated car horn. The loud sound made you both jump and you leaned as far forward as you could, pressing yourself against Kuroo. It took a moment before either of you realized what had happened, but as you did, you looked at each other and burst out laughing.
“That scared the shit out of me.” You said after you both had calmed down a bit.
“Yeah, maybe undressing in the front seat wasn’t a good idea…” He admitted, scratching the back of his neck.
“Backseat then?”
“Backseat.”
He helped you back to your seat before he got out of his side, not caring that he wasn’t wearing a shirt in the middle of the night in a gas station parking lot. You at least grabbed your shirt and held it to your chest as you stepped out of the car. You both looked at each other over the roof of the car and just laughed to yourselves, Kuroo even threw a look towards the lit up building to make sure no one was eyeing the two of you. You had already gotten inside the car again when he opened the door and climbed inside too.
Neither of you spoke as you started the annoying work of crawling out of your pants, shoes and underwear. Just throwing glances at the other as more and more of them were exposed.
It didn’t take long until you both sat there, naked and leaning on opposite doors just looking at each other. It was a little chilly in the car and the music was still playing from the radio in the front, none of you having thought of turning it off in your need to feel each other. His eyes were looking you up and down, silent and analysing. You could almost feel the hot trail of his burning eyes on you. You did the same, though you doubt you looked as intense as he did. His thighs instantly caught your attention, toned and thick. One leg was hanging off the seat, the other foot was resting flat on the seat. Resting on its knee was his arm, casually hanging there while he used the other arm to cushion his head from the cold window behind him. Not to mention his dick which was standing, lean and just as big as you had guessed it to be. He looked sort of like the sculptures from ancient Rome, the way his muscled body was leaned back and with how heavenly the light shone around him.
“Well…” —He tilted his head a little to the side, like a cat when they’re watching its prey —”Are you going to come over here or do you want me to crawl over to you?” He raised his eyebrow, smiling while he waited for your answer.
But you couldn’t come up with any. Your brain had finally short circuited which just left you with a semi-opened mouth and wide, dumbfounded eyes.
“What? Cat got your tongue?”
He moved forwards, holding onto the back of the seat as he raised himself above you. You could see his shoulder muscles moving just below his skin as he reached out his other hand to grab your ankle. He really did look like a predator and you felt like a prey in the best way possible. You let out a small gasp as he pulled you towards him but let him open your legs without any resistance. He looked down at your pussy, taking in a deep breath as he took it all in. He had moved so your ass was dragged up on his lap with your head laying on the seat, forcing you to look up at him.
“You look so pretty like this…” —He teased, his hands running up the underside of your thigh and calf, placing one leg over his shoulder while the other wrapped around his waist —“And look how wet you are.”
His smile looked a little wicked as he wrapped an arm around your thigh, slowly letting his thumb slide from your entrance up to your clit. It became covered in your juices and you arched your back, trying to hold back the moan that his action created. He glanced at your face to gauge your reaction before doing it again, this time pressing a little harder. You whimpered this time, closing your eyes.
“Princess, you gotta look at me.” He wasn’t too happy about you trying to avoid looking at what he was doing to you. So he pressed his thumb to you again, this time circling your clit instead of making contact with it, much to your disappointment.
You shook your head a little and heard him sigh above you. Suddenly you felt teeth against your inner thigh and sharp, though mild, pain. You yelped and opened up your eyes in shock, looking at him finally. He did waste anytime once he met your eyes to start rubbing your clit quickly and with purpose. This time you couldn’t hide your moan as it escaped your lips and bounced around his car. He didn’t let up, he didn’t give you a break.
You curled your toes and lifted your hips to chase after his touch. He didn’t say anything, focused on kissing and biting your inner thigh as his fingers kept working your clit. You watched him watching you, your eyes struggling to stay open just as he had told you. The prior teasing had made you sensitive and you felt yourself rush towards the familiar high, towards what would be the second climax this evening. But he felt your muscles tense and your nearly stilling breath told him just where he had you, and before you could fall off the edge… His fingers left you.
“You’re so sensitive, kitten…” — you could feel the vibrations of his laugh against the soft skin of your thigh— “But I don’t want this to be just your regular orgasm.”
You whined and moved your hips helplessly, the leftover energy in your body bouncing around inside of you with nowhere to go. Despite the soft smile Kuroo gave you, his eyes were that of a greedy, unforgiving torturer. And so he hooked his arm under the leg around his thigh, bringing it up over his shoulder as well. You just compiled, doing your best to help him from the position you were in, a little dazed.
“Good girl.”
He didn’t look at your face anymore, instead feasting his eyes on your cunt which was now up near his face. Your wetness had spread out around your pussy and your upper inner thighs and he lavished in the knowledge he had messed you up so badly. He could’ve kept admiring the view until you made a displeased noise.
“Are you just gonna keep staring or what? It’s cold…” You spoke softly and it lacked any edge, sounding less annoyed and more disappointed. He snapped out of his trance and chuckled.
“Of course, baby, I was just admiring how pretty you looked like this… maybe I should take a pic for my Onlyfans?” He teased you and you used as much strength as you dared to kick his back with your heel, making him flinch and laugh. “Ow- Hey I’m just kidding!”
He caressed your leg with his hand and finally lowered his head, his tongue falling out of his mouth to meet with your entrance. He pressed the wet muscle between your lower lips, and with one broad lick went the whole length of your quim. You could even hear a quiet moan from deep in his chest before he raised his head a little again.
“I want this all for myself anyways.”
The way he said it, a quiet sort of lovingly possessive tone, made you shiver. You didn’t have the time to reply as he repeated the action once more and then another. He kept eating at your core, sporadically sucking on your clit or dipping his tongue deep in your honeypot. And when he felt like you were getting too riled up, he’d slow down to a painfully docile speed, watching you with those bright eyes. Your whole body tensed at the pressure, your arms going up above your head to press against the car door on your side.
You looked up at him again and a false memory flashed in your head.
Maybe he’d do it in the back of his car, the one he took you home in. Parked just outside your house after a date, you two would be crammed into the back. He lifted your legs over his shoulders, the blood rushing to your head from the angle he was holding them up at. Your hands were pushing against the door from the inside, stuck staring at him as he ate you out. Slowly and calculating. He was taking his sweet time with you, his tongue gently circling your bundle of nerves. He was doing it hard enough to make your hips twitch and your mouth whine but not enough to rile you up further than that. If you were starting to zone out too far he’d introduce his fingers to you again. Pushing two inside with ease and fucking you with them until you were raising your hips even further and about to cum. Then he’d pull away fully, leaving you to fall from your high in the matter of seconds. All because he wanted you to watch him properly as he made it all start over again.
The fantasy that you had imagined just an hour or so ago. A random thought that some perverted god out there fulfilled. And for just a short moment, you thought that maybe wishes do come true if you just wish hard enough.
Suddenly pain shot from your clit, jolting you back into the moment. Kuroo was frowning, pinching your clit softly with his fingers.
“Y/n, focus.” He reprimanded you as if you had been doodling in class.
“I am.” You replied breathlessly, wearing a frown yourself at his silly comment.
“You weren’t, I could see it in your eyes.” — he started rubbing your button again while he spoke — “Here, I’ll give you a good reason to lose your mind.” He smiled again and dove back in with his mouth, pressing his tongue against your clit and moved his fingers. He let a finger slip in easily, and then a second, gradually picking up a steady pace. You clenched around his fingers instinctively but that didn’t stop him.
You tried to give him a witty response but as soon as you opened your mouth, the only thing that came out of it was moans and whines in time with your quick breaths. The knot in your abdomen had started tightening again. And you prayed that he would let you tip off the edge this time.
He was relentless, steady and stubborn in his ways and you were powerless under him, your nails digging into the material. Your back arched more and more the closer you came to your climax. And he watched you carefully, he had been since you entered his car, always gauging your reaction. And it made you feel like you were going up in flames, the heat of your bodies fogging up the windows of the car.
His tongue kept circling your clit and you gripped his fingers as hard as you could to the point you could feel each knuckle going in and out of you. You were reaching a peak.
“Kuroo… I-I’m about to-”
“I know, babygirl, go ahead.” He momentarily disconnected his mouth to speak before going back at it with doubled motivation.
And with his promise to let you cum, you closed your eyes and took a deep breath in, holding it as all your nerves lit up. Your whole body was tense, hard wound as you prepared for the inevitable. Your legs closed around his head, your soft thighs pressing against the sides of his head. And when it finally came, only seconds later, you could feel yourself fall from the edge, the familiar sensation of climax washing over your body in hard waves, spasming around his digits. He never stopped, helping you ride it all out until your body collapsed onto the seat. You cracked your eyes back open just as he pulled his head away, the last thing leaving you being his tongue.
He was grinning like the cat that ate the canary.
He softly lowered your body, removing your legs from his shoulders with utmost care before using one hand to wipe your wetness from his face. Leaning down, he placed soft kisses to your lips which you returned, though exhausted. Despite how heavy your arms felt, you even raised them to wrap around his upper body and let your fingers trace down the middle of his back, feeling every bump of his spine.
“You still down for more?” He whispered, checking in on your energy level.
You gave one last, slow kiss to his lips before replying
“Of course, I haven’t been staring at your dick on onlyfans all night just to leave it hard and dry.” You smiled, looking up at him.
“Fuck, that’s just what I wanted to hear.” He grinded his hips against yours just to prove his point.
He pulled you up against his chest much easier than you thought and pushed both of you closer to the door, letting you rest your back against it. You shifted a little, getting comfortable in the new position, moving your legs to let one wrap around his waist and the other hang off the seat
.
He looked down on himself and grabbed his dick, pumping it a couple of times with his fist before he positioned it in front of your drenched hole which was more than ready to take him. He edged the tip just past your folds before looking up to your face, his hand leaving a trail of goosebumps as it moves from your waist, up your chest and to the side of your face. He used his thumb to gently rub your cheek as he slid more and more of him into you. He didn’t hesitate as it easily slid to the hilt, freezing his movements as a shuddering breath left him when he felt your pussy around his cock. It felt like the whole world was spinning around the car, your head light and airy as you watched the man in front of you. His eyes had fallen to watch the place where the two of you were connected, his chest heaving with each deep breath. You even saw a smile form on his face.
“Hah… You feel so fucking good y/n. Such a good girl.” —he used his legs to raise himself up a bit to get a better angle before he slowly pulled back out to just the tip— “I want to ruin you so badly…”
Your eyes widened by the carnal tone of his voice before gasping as he slammed back into you. He repeated the action again and again, his need to fuck your brains out in the forefront of his mind as he pounded into you. He had been so soft and careful until now but as soon as you gave him a finger, he took the whole hand and you didn’t blame him. This whole time had been about your pleasure that now that it was finally his turn he was nearly desperate. You could feel it in the way he moved, the way he put his back into it, savoring every inch of your warm embrace.
The light from the outside was shining in again, hitting the side of his body and reflecting off his sweaty skin, giving him a white, holy glow despite the utterly sinful way he was looking down on you. You bounced on his dick, doing your best to stay steady against his merciless speed, taking hold of the seat beneath you with both hands and holding yourself up while he gripped your hips and pulled you against him.
“You’re clenching around me so hard right now, kitten, ah... does it feel good? Because it… fuck… it feels so fucking good right now. You’re so amazing, and beautifull and” —it sounds like he’s about to say something else before something suddenly clicks within him and he presses his face next to your ear and growls— “and all fucking mine”
His voice dropped low and sent a shiver down your spine and right into your abdomen, adding yet another drop to the cup of your steadily filling need. He slams his open palm against the foggy window besides your head and any cohesive thoughts sound far away. All you can perceive is the steady, hot pounding of his cock and the grunts he lets out right besides your ear together with the music sounding like white noise from the radio in the front. You couldn’t even care less if you wake up tomorrow with random bruises or sore muscles from today. All you care about is him.
Him and how he makes you feel.
“Princess… rub your clit for me” He speaks but you can’t react, lost in the moment. So he takes one of your hands and moves it to your own cunt. “Come on, y/n, do it for me.”
You can still not quite come to but you get the hint and let your fingers find your still sensitive clit. Your breath catches in your throat as electricity shoots from where your fingers touched, the feeling nearly too much for you to continue and you hesitate.
“Don’t you- ah fuck… don’t you dare stop now, baby. “ He guides your fingers with his thumb, boldly pressing them right against your clit and you whine loudly, to which he quiets you with a kiss while continuing to guide your fingers in circles. To help you with the overstimulation, he decides to give more stimulation to something else and angles his hips just a little higher, aiming it to hit where your g-spot should be. And it hits.
You cry out in pleasure as both your sensitive spots are played with as he keeps pulling you down on his cock, letting the edge of the head rub against your inner walls as you start desperately moving your fingers by yourself. He seems pleased as he focuses on his own movements again, his lips finding your open neck while your head is thrown back. He sucks hard, unable to regulate his strength as his mind is filled with pleasure. But the pain misinterprets in your own head as more pleasure and drives you even more crazy, your adam's apple bobbing as you swallow hard.
“Are you going to cum for me again?” —He breathes against your neck and you nod repeatedly.— “which number is this, have you kept track?” He taunts you.
“T..the third time…” You say, forgetting that he couldn’t have known about the time you masturbated to his videos.
“Third time? ...Don’t tell me you made yourself cum to my videos, did you? Hahah...Was that the real reason you called me, because you couldn’t get yourself off as good as you just thought I could? I can’t say I’m ah... surprised, I mean you sounded like you needed to be fucked even over the phone”
His words were sharp and dripping with lust, slowly filling you with his dirty talk and bringing you even closer to cumming.
“I’m…. Kuroo I’m about to cum again...”
“Of course you are, go on, cum on me, kitten. Keep rubbing that cute clit of yours while I fuck you sore.”
He sped up even further as you rubbed your clit just like he said. You placed your other hand on his shoulder and dug your nails into his skin, surely leaving crescent marks after you. But you didn’t care, you just wanted to feel your body fall off again. And you wanted to feel him fall with you into that deep whirlpool of ecstasy and lust. You circled your hips, winding up that aching need inside you but you tried to hold out, waiting for him.
But it proved too hard, he just kept going without showing a single sign of needing to stop any time soon. And when he kissed you again, passionate and hard, your mind exploded into a million pieces. Your whole body jerked and pulsed and the corners of your vision blacked out and left you with the piercing yellow eyes that watched you almost calmly despite his merciless pace. You rode out another high with his help, thinking that he’d come to his end too. But he kept going, the numb feeling your climax had left you with suddenly turned into painful pleasure.
“I-it’s too much…! K-kuroo!” Tears started prickling your eyes and you sharply pulled your hand from your clit and held onto his other shoulder with it too. But Kuroo couldn’t let you have that and replaced your hand with his own.
“Just a little more, a little more and you’re done. You're clenching around me so hard right now, it’s so fucking hot.” He reassured you, pressing his forehead against yours as he was on the verge himself.
You nodded and closed your eyes, allowing him to do as he wished with your body. But it felt like forever, as if your orgasm had never stopped and just kept going with every pulse of your racing heartbeat. With every breath from the man on top of you, with every rub of your clit, with every car passing by on the street below the parking lot.
“Cum in me, Kuroo, please.” You managed to get out between breaths, a carnal need for him pushing you to speak as you felt him lose his rhythm and focus on the situation.
“As you fucking wish, kitten.”
You felt him sheath himself as deep into as he could before freezing in place, closing his eyes and pinching his brows with his mouth falling open while one hand held you in place, the other pushing you over what you can only guess was your fourth orgasm but it all blurred together in the heat of it all. You could feel Kuroo’s dick pump his seed into you, the warmth almost burning thanks to how sensitive you were.
And when he finished, he collapsed on top of you. You took his weight, wrapping your arms around his neck with a silly smile on your face. Both of your eyes were closed as you got your grasp on reality again.
“That was…. addictive… I think I’m addicted.” he mumbled in your neck, giving it slow kisses as he got his energy back.
“And you were way better than the pictures, and that’s pretty impressive.”
“Hah, thanks… You want something to drink or eat? I could get something from the gas station.”
You lightly slapped the back of his head.
“Ack-! Just joking, again.”
“I don’t think I could imagine facing them ever again. I’d die of embarrassment.” You lean your head back against the window and turn it to get a glance outside of the fogged up window, seeing the handmark he had left.
“Hey, you were the one who couldn’t wait until we got to my place.” —he reminded you— “Hm, about that actually. How about a breakfast date tomorrow?”
You make a questioning sound and try to look at his face, to which he finally raises it and faces you.
“You could sleep at my place aaaand then we could head to this cute pancake place I know in the morning.”
“You just wanna do this again in a proper bed, don’t you.” You could read his cheeky grin like he was an open book.
“What, me? Nooo. But if you wanna do it again then I’m down.”
You don’t even say anything and instead try to hide the giggles that leaks out between loving kisses.

If you were once worried your income would be hindered from his absence, you weren't anymore.
Mando certainly made up for his vacancy—and often.
His bare hand always found its home on the back of your neck, glove in mouth, and you're bent over whatever object you had been closest to. First was the bed, the crate, kitchenette, another crate, table, and most recently, the ladder to the cockpit where you clung to the bars for dear life. Four more times since Takodana and you had left less than a day ago.
Yes, you felt used, but… he always made sure you were satisfied too: bringing his hand down… when most people wouldn't care or be bothered if they were paying anyways. He has stuck so strictly to, well, handling you like a bounty, not intimate, quick and over, you were starting to wonder if you were keeping him satisfied.
He seemed content with just bending you over and taking what he needed at that moment. But surely, he longed for more. He must have desires beyond primal impulses. He wasn't a droid; he was warm (you've felt that in detail). A man, an unsolvable puzzle you were now determined to crack.
You had wanted to find out what made the Mandalorian tick, what he liked, and what he didn't. What made him tip more. What made him tip less. He seemed not to like a lot of things, but he tolerated you, so that was a good start.
The only problem was: you were an awkward flirt.
But it would have helped your tips, so it was worth a shot. Or so you thought.
You internally cringe at the memory. You copied a line from one of your spicier holo shows, "I licked it, so it's mine," when you were at the base of the ladder on your knees. He twitched—hard— but before he could feel the whole heat of your mouth, he brought you up and spun you around: hence the 'holding onto the rungs of the ladder for dear life' part. Again, he was a puzzle for denying your attempt - but maybe that was something he didn't want from you despite how his body reacted.
You did like his body, though—and his smell. Which you supposed was extremely fortunate given your situation. Maker, you were an animal. His armor was enticing to you too. And would be more challenging to draw than Moz's goggles: the reflections came from light in all locations. It would be your biggest challenge yet: a walking mirror.
You did let yourself wonder what was below the armor, beyond what you already knew from his gloves and zipper. It was impossible to not think about. You knew it was his religion, and you never expect him to share something so private with a… well you. But you couldn't stop yourself. You settled on a blond with hard green eyes and flat lips. Although something about the description didn't feel quite right, you couldn't place it - not that it mattered anyway.
Heavy steps came from the ladder, and you jolted, looking up from where your gaze wandered from your sketchpad. Your stare was met back by Mando's. You were about to stand to ready yourself for another round when you realized the purpose for his presence: food.
Men really were simple creatures.
"I set you out an extra cup." You keep your eyes on your drawing with a smile, not wanting to put too much emphasis on the gesture. The caf you bartered for at Takodana was some of the best you've ever had because of your secret ingredient the trader mentioned. "Enjoy the Thala milk while it lasts."
Truly a rare delicacy. It pairs well with muffins.
So at the last minute, you attempted to replicate the batch the Zarbak made. It needs improvement but better than grey soup. A lot better. You never had the ingredients or time to ever make food before - it was surprisingly fun and relaxing.
"The muffins are still warm, and I can reheat the soup from last night too if you're still…" you trail off when you look back up: he is just staring at you. Well, he could be blinking, and you would never know, either way, it felt like he was peering into your soul - pinning you down with the 'T' visor before he finally spoke.
"This wasn't in your job description," then softer, "You don't have an obligation."
When he was only eating a grey sludge? Hoth yes, you had an obligation!
Seeing this as an opportunity for a tip, you set your sketchpad to the side and jump to your feet. You cross the room, and he doesn't move but does let his helm waver across you for a moment. You get closer, he had typically been the one to initiate, but you thought you could give it a try and see how it goes. You place a tentative hand on his cowl, not trying to pull to see more skin than what he has willingly shown you - just letting the weight and heat of your hand have a presence. Something slightly more intimate than holding the armor. You move to whisper into the crook of his neck, hoping he can feel the warmth of your breath.
"And what would you say my job is exactly?"
You open a leg out and lift it ever so slightly to his hip so that your heat would be on the growing bulge in his pants. With your leg half wrapped around him, you pull yourself together and purposefully create the smallest amount of friction between the both of you. He stiffens and sucks in a breath as he towers over you. You quickly try to think of something sexy to say next, but you honestly didn't think he would let you get this far.
"Muffins were not not in the job description." Was the best thing you could come up with.
Nice.
But before the graceless comment could hang in the air too long, a beep sounded from overhead.
With a low growl, he pulled from your clumsy enticement. Unsure of the situation, you ask, "Is the ship okay?"
He had moved to the muffins, examining them with brisk efficiency before snatching one with one hand and the caf in the other. He nodded and turned towards the ladder.
"Have to enter a hyperspace lane to get to Hoth." And just before the cockpit door closed overhead, "Thank you."
Hyperspace.
Hoth!
Two bucket list items all in one sentence - Tim will be so excited! You will have to make detailed drawings and notes of Hoth since it is clearly his favorite. It was his favorite for a reason, though; Hoth was the darling of the holo shows imagination: mythical Wampas, impossibly cold temperatures, and deadly winds. You would always roll your eyes, setting Tim straight about his gullibility to believe in movie magic. However, the snow you speculated was true, and you had never seen that either. You didn't want Tim to be disappointed. You wanted him to keep that childlike wonder; perhaps snow and hyperspace would be enough to captivate his interest since you wouldn't actually see a Wampa.
With quickened steps, you return to your sketchpad and curl into a blanket you brought from your quarters. You had spent the night in the previously unused larger bed; it was the largest mattress you had ever seen, let alone sleep on. But if Hoth had snow, then it might be a little chilly, so you should bring out the blankets and check for warm clothes in your bag.
Wrapped in your sweatshirt and nestled next to some extra charcoals is Takodana's jar half on its side - a world tipped. You notice the mosses within are beginning to brown, the telltale sign of a premature end. As the world in the container starts to die, the tiny bug wandering on the landscape knows his days are numbered - looking through the glass at its decider of fate: you. "Help me," its small trill voice rings in your imagination. You are the gatekeeper, the angel at the door who only has to act to allow the light to access the dying world you created. Abandoning your search for warm clothes, you think of Mazey one last time, muster your courage, and knock on the cockpit door.
"Hey, Mando," your stomach twists - this was a bad idea, "I understand if you don't want—Can I put this in the light, so it doesn't die?"
You look up and gasp. Hyperspace.
It really was like nothing you had ever seen before. Blues, purples, yellows, white, and black all blended in perfect harmony. Worlds came and went in the blink of an eye. And all reflected brilliantly against Mando's armor. It was indescribable with words, luckily writing isn't your strong suit anyway— only a drawing could do this justice.
"You've never been in hyperspace before."
And suddenly, all of the colors were gone. There was only the uncompromising visor.
Your widened eyes snap to the black 'T'; you swear the hair on the back of your neck stands up.
"What, of course! All the time!" And you seal your lie with a breathy laugh for good measure - praying his helmet doesn't have heat sensors as that one Mandalorian did in that show. Your pulse probably lit you up like a Life Day tree.
But he only hums in acknowledgment; his head tilts down to see the way you are awkwardly gripping the jar for survival.
"The light in the kitchen will work the best for plants."
You nod and escape the cockpit as fast as you can. That was a horrible idea. Now he thinks you are a total liar. What if he finds out you have no idea what you are doing. What if he finds out you are doing this for your family.
The credits are too good to lose the job now.
—-
You've been curled up on your mattress, surrounded by blankets, gripping your caf a bit too tightly for what only felt like a few minutes before the ship lurched—signaling the end of hyperspace.
You don't go back up to the cockpit to see what Hoth looks like through the atmosphere, Tim might be a little disappointed, but it was probably a pale blue marble. Not worth repeating what just happened. You're not given time to fester though, the turbulence sends you against a wall, and you land face first on your bed. You imagine clouds engulfing the ship, rushing past the plummet to a snowy landscape.
Mostly gray, a hint of navy blue, and you would need a fan brush to add the snow flurries. You only brought the charcoals with you, but you will keep the memory safe until you return home.
Like a dugar on ice, you stumble out to the belly of the ship, clinging to the wall as you go. Finally, there is an uncomfortably audible thump as the ship hits ground. Hoth.
The hefty steps on the ladder return, and he strides straight past you to the weapons rack.
"If I'm not back in 8 hours, assume I'm dead and take off." He slings a rope over his shoulder.
"I don't really know how to fly a ship like this one," you whisper as he clips what looks like a flashlight to his belt. You don't know how to fly anything at all, but you leave that part out.
"There is a manual under the pilot chair." You nod. Hopefully, it does not come to that.
With an added blade to his boot, he moves to a panel and presses in buttons; the ship beeps and hisses in return.
"If the heat breaks, let me know in the comm. Go to the shower, run hot water over yourself, and pray a pipe doesn't burst. I will hopefully be back before you freeze to death."
"Hopefully," you murmur, "Will I be able to leave the ship?"
"For short periods of time. Here." He turns to you and hands you the blaster on his side; your eyes nearly bulge out of your skull. "Mando, don't you need that?!"
"A bounty idiotic enough to hide here is long dead," he motions to the rope on his shoulder, "Take it in case you see a wampa while you are out."
You take the blaster from him with a timid hand. The weight of it fully sinking into you, the power. How many people died looking through the barrel of this very blaster? Now a Mandalorian is handing it to you so you can go on a field trip.
Then the rest of his words sink in, and you laugh heartily, "Wampas aren't real."
"Yes, they are."
With that, Mando turns on his heel and leaves. A gust of sharp frozen air fills the cabin in his wake.
Worried, you call after him, "Then won't you need it!!"
He nonchalantly tilts his head back to you.
"I have a blade." And keeps walking without looking back; his form instantly lost in the blizzard.
You imagine Mando wrestling with a wampa using the blade he put in his boot. The weapon looked so small in his hands, and if wampas were anything like in the shows, their thick coats would be almost impossible to cut through. What if he gets hurt because you have his blaster?
—-
You wait for the blizzard to die down, and when you finally descend the ramp to the frozen planet, you realize—those holo shows didn't exaggerate a thing.
The impossible cold temperatures were, in fact, very possible, and your nose and fingertips experienced the worst of it. You push the sleeves of your sweatshirt above your hands and pull the hoodie strings to better protect your face.
You breathe in.
You breathe out.
So. This is what snow is like. It was colder than you imagined, soft, and had a strange crunching noise beneath your boots—the desolate landscape sprawled before you. Mountains peaked the clouds in the distance, but every detail closer was enveloped in mist. After a few moments of feeling the presence of the cold deep within your lungs and the weight of the weapon at your side, you run.
It was freeing, and you felt light, giggles escaping your lips as you tumbled to the blanketed ground. You decorate the snow with angels of your figure. But you want to be more creative than that. Sculpting was never your forte, but you do your best. After three snowmen stood before you, the largest one no bigger than your shoe, you decide to up the ante.
You try to get the general shape of the wampa First. The beast would only stand an inch taller than the snowman. Then you added the horns and used the nail of your finger to add the details of the wampa's face and fur.
You look upon your creations with a juvenile sense of pride. This way, you could experiment with new art mediums without bothering Mando.
You lay backward in the snow, surrounded by your statues with a tired smile. Finally, you yawn and lazily turn your head to the side.
And if your heart could talk, it would let out a blood-curdling scream.
Luckily for you, you've trained your reactions to be on the quieter side—thus, instead of screaming, your jaw clamped shut as you felt your stomach plummet.
A fresh footprint the size of your chest was plastered in the ground, inches from your nose.
Wampa.
As calmly as possible, you stand and ascend the ramp. The ramp slowly shutting from the white abyss must have been one of the scariest moments of your life. The clicking of the latch was a sound of indescribable relief; your whole body felt flooded with emotion as if it all happened at once. Your knees wobbled as you climbed the ladder searching through the windows for any sign of the creature.
—-
If Mando is not back in 3 hours, you have to leave him.
Blizzards came and went, darkening your view, howling as if the ship would be torn apart. But your eyes stayed glued on the landscape in front of you, soaking in as much as you could in this rare period of calm. There was no sign of any life forms Mando, wampa, or otherwise.
But you know what you need before you can leave Hoth.
You breathe in—out and climb down the ladder.
With an empty jar in one hand and blaster in the other, you take tentative steps down the ramp and into snow.
The wampa print is still there, obscured by the winds and shifts of the snow. With haste, you shovel the snow from the print into the jar, unconcerned with making it look nice—Tim won't mind.
And you full-on sprint back to the ship. Safe. Blaster never fired.
You rummage through the drawer, pull out a tag, and label the jar.
Hoth
You store the jar in your bag, left to melt within minutes. Either way, you have captured a bit of Hoth with you. As soon as Tim hears this was once a wampa print, nothing else will matter anyway.
Even if by the time he sees it, it will just be a jar of water.
You now have two jars in your collection (one was slightly more charming than the other). But it was a collection nonetheless.
—-
If Mando is not back in 10 minutes, you're supposed to leave him.
With confidence all signs of a wampa are gone; you lower the ramp just enough so you can see.
That was a joke. Anything past a foot in front of your nose was a wild blur of snowflakes and splinters of ice whipping around. You had only been out there a few minutes, and it felt like your hands were going to freeze off, Mando has been gone for almost 8 hours. Your heart sinks as another unforgiving blast of wind strikes the side of the hull, sending the ship into a creaking, groaning pile of metal. The ship shifts even deeper in the snow, and more snow relentlessly pours on top. Burying you alive, making it harder for Mando to spot where he parked.
You can't leave him; he will be dead for sure. At least if you wait, he still has a chance. And that's what you do, for 30 excruciating minutes. The heat went out, and you sat on the floor of the hall curled in blankets waiting for the cold to become unbearable—that's when you will leave.
Unbearable came sooner than you would have liked to admit. Without constant heat circulation, the ship was nothing more than hollow metal walls to an unforgiving frozen wasteland.
Your shivering was a good sign; you told yourself over and over again as the tips of your fingers numbed entirely and started to trail your hands. Shivering meant your body was still trying. That you weren't dead yet.
And finally, when you stand to move to the cockpit to figure out the take-off procedure, the ramp door lowers after not seeing Mando for 8 hours and 45 minutes.
Mando stagers in dragging a blue-skinned, beady-eyed, ortolan by the trunk with the rope around his shoulder. But what you notice first is the kirffing wampa holding the other end of the rope, helping Mando get the blubbery, floppy-eared creature into the carbonite chamber.
You stand in the corner of the ship, wrapped in blankets watching as the carbonite gas fills the room. Mando sends a curt nod to the wampa, turns to the kitchenette, and gives it the last of your muffins.
The wampa howls its thanks and leaves the ship. The ramp closed in its wake.
"The bounty was heavier than expected, and she wouldn't accept credits for payment," he provides as if it made perfect sense why a wampa now has your baked goods.
You're speechless, standing useless in the corner—shock and frustration simmering in your gut. You could have left him. He could be as good as dead right now.
But you do notice Mando is gripping the side of the kitchenette a bit too tightly; his shoulders are not as confident as usual, and most alarming of all: you can hear his breaths through the modulator.
"Are you alright?"
"Glad to be alive," he huffs. Then takes a step forward and stumbles slightly. You are there in a flash, catching his arm. Ice cold.
"I just need to thaw out. It will be fine."
He was so casual, but it could have been a severe injury. He could have been stranded. Dead.
He walks to the ladder while keeping a firm hand on the wall. The ship starts with a grudge but finally, you feel the stress of the blizzard disappear. Space at last. He stumbles back down and to the refresher; after a few minutes, you hear the shower turn on.
—-
You expect him to be in the shower for a while thawing out.
You were going to leave him behind. Would you have been responsible for his death? Would you have been arrested for his murder? You can't afford to lose this job. You have to keep the lights on, and if he dies…You barely knew the man, and yet the thought of him gone—leaving you alone with his ship—terrifies you.
You nervously tap your nails on the side of a crate.
You need a distraction.
So you start to finish your previous project. You remove the few collected bowls of snow from the fridge, add some vanilla, Thala milk, and sugar you bartered for at Takodana, and—ice cream. Forget your tension and irritation. This was a coping mechanism as good as any.
Ice cream.
Your mom prefers the cooking channel, you never saw the charm, but this was one episode you did pay attention to as a kid.
You had always wanted to try it anyway.
Mando exits the refresher, and hot steam rolls onto the floor before he closes the door behind him. Tall as ever. If he was in any pain, he didn't show it as he loomed over you.
You want to chastise him, scream, make him understand through that thick bucket on his head. This was more than you signed up for. You decide to act on your better angel—deflection.
"I made ice cream."
He hesitates, glancing between the bowl and yourself: a wound-up girl currently refusing to look at him in the 'T' of the visor and fists clenching a tad too tightly at her sides. Then, finally, he answers, slow, sounding skeptical, "Snow from Hoth?"
"With a bit of vanilla, sugar, and milk." Your smile doesn't quite reach your eyes.
"Don't eat that."
Genuine confusion speckles your features, "Wait, why not?"
He takes a cup of some unaltered snow, and suddenly a burst of flames erupts from his wrist. Your anger leaves you immediately for the startle in your chest. Of course, he has a built-in flame thrower on his wrist - why were you even surprised.
The snow pools to water in an instant as the flames lap the sides of the bowl. He sets it down in front of you, and there is at least a spoonful of dirt at the bottom.
Your lips set in a firm line, and you slowly look back up at him. At the 'T.' Hopefully his eyes and not a random place on his forehead. He lets out a low chuckle. It's the first time you hear him laugh; it's rich and deep and light all at the same time. Your lips curve up just in the presence of the sound - even if it was at your expense.
—-
The immediate anger bubbling on the tip of your tongue eventually subsided, replaced with a warm embrace of a blanket, working heater, simmering cup of caf, and an overwhelming thankfulness it is Mando piloting the ship right now and not you.
He could have died, but he didn't. That probably happens a lot in his line of work - an understanding that any day could be his last.
Although you would have preferred a more stable source of credits—yes, you felt guilt from reducing his life as your income— you decided to make the most while you could.
That's how your feet find themselves moving to the cockpit door and a hesitant hand knocking once again.
After a beat of silence you enter. He has one hand resting on the ship's control column and the other entering a series of buttons—hyperspace streaks across the glass.
He seems busy. You should leave…
But his shoulders seemed relaxed, and he didn't appear to be acknowledging your presence. Surely he would tell you to go away when you knocked.
You move forward to take the initiative and lean against one of the panels. You are far enough away from him so that you don't accidentally press a button with your butt, but close enough so that you remain in his peripheral.
Knowing he is not one for small talk, you trace a line on the outside of your clothes from your sternum to the seam of your pants. You feel his eyes glued to you despite him remaining unchanged, facing forward and working.
You let out a sigh of boredom that boarded something pornographic. To your delight, his hand twitched ever so slightly on the controller.
He pushes one more button, stops, and slowly turns his chair to face you.
There is a moment where he just stares up at you. You both know a transaction is about to occur. Sex for credits. A bartering so simple it was practiced well into ancient times. Now you are both merely cogs on a wheel, achieving your desires. The sex meant nothing to you, and the credits mean nothing to him: a mutualistic relationship as good as any.
Becoming impatient at how long it was taking his eyes to rake over your body, you thread your lower lip between your teeth and let the plump flesh snap back in place a moment later. That does the trick because he stands to full height, looking down at you once more.
With bravery, you don't know how you mustered; You take a step closer and attractively try to wrap yourself around him—the armor cold beneath your fingertips.
You whisper along where you assume his lips are on the visor, the heat of your breath hitting the metal and warming your face, "I could have left you."
He runs a hand along your cheek and tightens the grip, "You didn't."
The Mandalorian presses a gloved thumb on your lower lip, parting them to show the smallest sliver of teeth before he plunges the finger ever so slightly deeper. Your eyes practically light up with dollar signs as you lick and wrap your tongue around the digit. Showing him in detail exactly what you were imagining. No, the grainy leather of the glove was not as pleasant as his skin, but the guttural sound that emanated somewhere below the chest plate made you forget all about the places that glove may have been.
Then in a flash, both hands are firmly anchored on your hips, spinning you to face away from him. Surrounding you with an overwhelming view of hyperspace. You gasped not just from the sudden movement, but from your position; it was like you were plummeting past the stars.
But then, as you are looking across the endless swirling space, he is putting pressure on the back of your neck, bending you at the waist (again - what a surprise). Your nose now inches from the glass, the buttons dig slightly into your sides. He shifts his hips, lining his clothed, ever-hardening, bulge up against you. He groans, "Look so good like this, Joey."
And rolls, you whimper, and mewl at the unexpected praise. But before it has time to settle, he is actually speaking audibly this time; your pants are haphazardly yanked to your knees, panties and all.
Cold air hits your bottom, and you shiver. But it is replaced with warmth as he grinds into you one more time, smearing your arousal across his flight suit.
"Bite."
The familiar words rumble from behind you as you lodge the glove between your teeth. All notions of the previous conversation forgotten. After a well-placed spiral and a smear, a thick, ungloved, digit is pushed into you, and you gasp once again, but this time for much better reasons.
The hand continues to pump in and out and circle with his thumb. When he deems you ready, he lines up directly behind you. The space was slightly cramped because of the pilot chair.
You hear the sound of the zipper. Then he is running his length through your folds, soaking him. You all but feel the trail of slick between the two of you as he pulls away for a moment. You feel him notch at your entrance, then, with a couple of slow, measured thrusts, he is flush against you. The stretch stung but was marvelous.
You crane your head back, nearly dizzy from the all-encompassing hyperspace and wanting to fulfill the curiosity about what you look like taking the cock of a fully armored Mandalorian. You get the slightest glimpse, seeing how the flesh of your ass pillows attractively as he is entirely pushed into you. Your eyes find relief from the streaking stars for just a second before the ungloved hand settles strongly on the back of your neck - wrapping around to the hinges of your jaw and forcing you to face forwards.
You spasm around him, and he groans but still does not move. How does he have this level of restraint?! You imagine hunting bounties takes a lot of patience too. To spring at the right moment. To find the best opportunity to close his jaws around his prey's neck and squeeze. He has been gone for days on end hunting—this must be nothing to him.
There was a rip of fabric as your shirt was torn from you. Oh well, you did not like that shirt anyway. He is the one paying for it, so it didn't matter how many clothes he destroyed. You neglected to put a bra on (part of the enticement plan), which in hindsight, probably allowed the undergarment to 'live' another day. But now, your breasts mashed against the cold, hard buttons on the command council, and the contrast to the throbbing heat behind—inside of—you felt wonderful.
Now, completely bare in front of him, he slowly, entirely, leaves your warmth. You whimper and quiver in his absence. The tightening of his hand on the back of your neck subconsciously notified you of his intentions, but you could never have been prepared: he thrusts back into and hard.
The pace is relatively slow but brutal, completely leaving you before flushing against you every time. Air rushes out of your lungs as soon as you can get it back in his absence. Each thrust presses you further and further into the cockpit's controls, and you swear your nose brushes against the glass.
Ok, maybe this is a bit too much hyperspace.
You had no bearing to reality. Nothing steady to hold on to. No air to keep. Just the blinding rush of stars and the pleasure. It was all so much—too much. Not enough.
In desperation you reach out mindlessly. Your hand settles on a lever with a silver ball at the top. You flick it by accident, and the whole ship lurches and beeps, sending him into you with even more force than he probably intended. Maker, you could almost feel him in your throat. You release a strangled cry, palm landing flat on the glass for balance instead.
"Don't be pressing buttons, Joey," huffing a laugh; he sounded almost as desperate as you. But where your voice becomes increasingly higher, his drops to an impossible gravel.
Your eyes flutter shut with the imminent high—the hand of the back of your neck tangles in your hair and yanks your head upwards. Your eyes are forced open, and the mess of stars nearly makes you faint. All of your senses are maxed out. You feel him so deep; why are you the one getting paid for this? Maker, why did you think the sex meant nothing to you when it was this world shattering.
You're shaking and so delirious you don't hear the hiss of his helmet being removed.
To your relief (and also disappointment?), a palm blocks your view of hyperspace.
A hot tongue drags a slow line across your spine to the back of your neck. And you kirffing wail as your orgasm blazes through you. You clamp down around him, and he bites the chord of your neck, leaving a mark, all without a single break in his firm, hammering, rhythm. Your back arches, but there is nowhere to go; you just take it how he gives it to you and pray to the Maker you will find air eventually.
That was most definitely Mando's tongue and teeth…his helmet is off. But before any rational thought can return to your brain, especially the implications about what you had told him earlier, you feel his helmet rest against your shoulder blades. The grip in your hair tightens as his forearm wraps around your waist, pushing you once, twice, three more times up to him— the embracing squelches, making you choke.
He fills you to the brim, your combined releases dripping down your legs, as he instantly stumbles back from you to sit in the pilot chair. His visor level with your twitching, used, warmth from where you are still obediently bent over for him. Despite the satisfying ache, your embarrassment pushes you to stand straight. But the gentle weight of a gloved hand on your lower back coaxes you to stay put. With nowhere to go, you hide your face in your elbow as he kneads the pillows of your ass, watching himself drip from you.
After he is satisfied with himself, he stands and double taps the band on your arm. The light turns green.
"Thank you." Your voice was hoarse and barely audible.
The Mandalorian grinds up against you again, the oversensitivity stinging. He then bends to your ear, voice dark as night and smooth as honey, he whispers.
"Mine."

"And no opening the door to anyone no matter how sorry you feel for them, okay?" Colt said while adjusting the tie around his neck, making sure it's even as he takes one final look at himself in the mirror before putting on his coat.
"Okay" Falco replied, watching as his brother was getting frustrated with the too many buttons on his coat. "Do you need help?"
Nodding his head, Colt let Falco do his buttons while he reached for the cup of coffee he left on the table, quickly finishing it all. "And make sure to get to bed on time, no staying up reading comic books, you have school tomorrow."
"Don't worry I won't" Falco looked in concern at the empty coffee cup, "isn't this your third one today? I don't think you should be drinking this much..."
"You worry too much Falco, just take care of yourself okay?" Colt rubbed his brother's hair, before patting his head. "I'll text you to check on how you're doing so make sure to charge your phone."
And just like that, Colt wrapped a scarf around his neck, grabbed his keys, and left through the door. Leaving Falco standing there at the entrance, alone in the house.
Looking around the quiet room, Falco picked up the empty cup before washing it in the sink. Just as he was putting it away, the door bell rang.
'Did he forget something?' He thought, wondering if it's his the keys again. But looking at the table, he could see nothing was there.
Wait...Colt did take his keys before leaving, why would he be ringing the doorbell.
The ringing got more frequent, followed by aggressive knocking. Falco took a step back into the kitchen, thinking if he could dash upstairs to get his phone in time.
But he didn't want to trouble his brother...Think Falco think! What would captain america do in this scenario? But Reiner always told him he should think for himself...
And so he grabbed a knife, slowly inching towards the door but then he heard it, that fimilar sound.
"Falco? You in there? It's freezing open the door!"
"Gabi?!" Dropping the knife, Falco rushed to the door. Quickly unlocking it as a very cold looking Gabi stepped inside.
"What took you so long? I can't feel my fingers!" Rubbing her hands together to attempt to warm them up, Gabi glared at Falco.
"Sorry I thought you were a-" he looked away at the knife "uh..anyway let me get you a blanket" before he could rush up the stairs, Gabi pulled him back.
"No there's no time! We have to leave now." Holding his hand, Gabi dragged a very confused Falco out the door and they began making their way to the next destination.
-
Soon enough, the pair found themselves standing outside Udo's house, directly under his window.
"You still haven't told me why we're here." Falco watched as Gabi was looking for something on the ground, he stiffened when she smiled after picking up a small rock.
"I will tell you once Udo and Zofia are here, it's very important." She handed him the rock. "Now let's focus on getting Udo here, make sure to aim for his window because his mom is a really light sleeper."
"Wait if that's the case then why didn't we go to Zofia's house first? She lives right opposite of mine!" Falco whisper-shouted.
"Because! Neither of us can deal with a sleeping Zofia and you know that, only Udo knows how to wake her up." Gabi explained, crossing her arms while getting impatient. "So hurry up and throw the rock!"
Flaco looked at Udo's window, then at the rock. He looked at Gabi one last time before closing his eyes and throwing it, it made a sound as it hit the window....nothing happened
"Why am I the one throwing the rocks?" He looked anxiously at Udo's dark window, moving his weight from one leg to the other.
"I'm stronger. If i throw it, I'll break the window." Gabi was looking for another rock, having found one slightly bigger than the last. "Here try this one"
-
Having reunited again, the four of them were walking down the street to Reiner's house late at night. Gabi leading the group, Falco following her reluctantly, Udo keeping a still sleepy Zofia from walking into a wall while in her pajamas.
"This better be good Gabi, otherwise you can forget about copying my math homework for a month." The thought of just turning around and going back home to bed was still in the back of Zofia's mind.
Having almost reached Reiner's house, the four of them could see multiple cars parked outside of it, some of them they recognise.
"See! I told you all it'd be worth it. They're having a secret party without us! I heard Reiner talking about it on the phone with Zeke this morning when I was pretending to be asleep so I don't have to walk home." Gabi said as they sneaked to the side of the house.
"That's mister Zeke's car, miss Annie's and...even Porco's too.." Udo said as they climbed the house fence.
"They invited Porco but not us?" With that information, Zofia was fully awake.
"That's exactly what I've been telling you guys about! Here look!" Standing on her toes, Gabi looked through the window, between the curtains. Three heads joining her soon.
Looking inside, they could see the living room they were so fimilar with, looking really different. For once it wasn't a mess of pillows and candy wrappers! It was actually clean with various candles adding to the atmosphere.
Zeke and Pieck could be seen siting next to each other on the couch, drinking some wine while Colt is in the arm chair next to them with Porco pushing a drink in his hands.
Annie and Bertolt are leaning against the wall, she's holding a plate of donuts while he's talking about something.
Finally, you and Reiner are sitting on the couch opposite to Zeke and Pieck. His hand is around your shoulder and he keeps taking glances behind him at bertolt, while Zeke stares at him from the front.
If you focus, you can hear the muffled sound of music playing in the background.
The four kids watched as Reiner whispered something in your ear, before you noded, got up and headed towards the kitchen. The second you left, all of them crowded at the couch next to Reiner, Talking in hushed tones.
"What...are they doing?" Udo watched as Reiner took out a small red box from his pocket, hands shaking while the people around him leaned in to see what's inside as he opened it.
Quiet gasps and awws followed after as the ring inside came into view, glittering in the dark by the candlelight. Although that only seemed to fluster Reiner even more.
The four of them looked at each other with wide eyes, then back at the ring as Reiner reached out to hold it delicately in his hand for a few seconds as if he's offering it up to the air in front of him, the room got quiet, everyone holding their breaths.
"Oh " Falco said, "i...think i know what's going on." Both Udo and Zofia noded.
"What?" Gabi knitted her eyebrows, tilting her head, "what's going on?"
Before any of them could answer, Zofia told them to keep quiet when she noticed you walking back in the room, the ring back in the box inside Reiner's pocket.
Everyone was now standing, smiles on their faces, even Annie showing one of her rare ones. You were holding a new plate of donuts when you noticed them, with Reiner in the middle, nervous eyes staring right at yours.
Stepping towards you, Annie took the plate before going back to her spot. A few chuckles from Zeke, Bertolt and Pieck followed while Reiner shock his head.
Still outside, the kids saw Reiner start talking about something. Whatever it is, it must have been emotional because everyone in the room was listening with anticipation.
"I can't hear anything" unlocking the window, Gabi opened it just slighly. The muffled sound of music becoming clear as Reiner was finishing his speech.
"And you'd make me the happiest man in the world" he got on one knee, hand taking something out of his pocket. "If we could spend the rest of our lives together and I'll cherish every single moment you're by my side."
He opened the red box, holding the ring in front of you, eyes pleading. "Will you please marry me?"
The second you said yes, Reiner pulled you in the tightest most loving hug in your life, muttering "thank you"s under his breath. You could taste saltiness of his tears when he kissed your lips, still not letting go.
"He's crying" Udo said, feeling his own glasses getting a bit blurred.
"They're kissing." Falco's face was as red as a tomato, covering his blushing face with his hand but looking through his fingers.
"Annie finished all the donuts" was Zofia's comment with a pout.
Gabi's hold on the window got tighter, her lips quivering. "We have to stop them. They can't get married!" And like that, she slammed the window open before climbing inside.
"Gabi! Wait!" Falco tried grabbing her sleeve but was too slow, so he climbed after her into the room.
As expected from two children suddenly breaking in the room through the window, everyone's eyes were on them with surprised expressions.
Looking straight at Reiner, Gabi pulled you away from him before snatching the ring box from his hand. "NO! no one is marrying anyone" with all her might, she threw the box to Falco before telling him to run away.
Having been dragged into the middle of this, Falco looked at Colt's concerned expression, Reiner's confused face and Pieck's amused one. Stepping near Colt, he was about to give him the ring when he saw Gabi's face, making his stop midway.
"Run Falco! Just go!" She yelled, tears streaming down her face, legs shaking. "They can't leave us! Not like our parents did..."
Falco felt his chest tightening, recalling how empty the house feels with just him and Colt being away for work most of the time. How cold it is, unlike the warmth he feels whenever they stay over at your house.
He began tearing up too, holding the box so tightly to his chest.
It was Reiner who made the first move, while everyone was stunned looking at the two crying children. Pulling the both of them to his chest as they sobbed, he wrapped his arm safely around them. He looked at you and you followed in his steps.
-
After some time and explaining, Colt was comforting Falco while on the couch with Pieck doing the same on his other side. You had Zofia on your lap while she ate some Donuts you stashed away from Annie. Gabi was still clutching to Reiner with Udo on his other side doing the same.
Gabi would take a bite out of a donut, cry a bit then take another bite. Sometimes glancing at the red box on the table.
With time, reassuring words and Zeke making the kids laugh, things slowly got better. Reiner and you completely reassured them that you're never leaving, you love them more than anything in this world. That getting marriage is going to get you even more closer together than anything.
Hearing those words calmed Gabi down, each of them made you make a pinky promise to not replace them ever, same thing to Reiner.
That's when Bertolt brought up the fact you still haven't worn the ring, and it might make them feel better if they were the one to place it on your hand. And that seemed to grab their attention as they began arguing between themselves which one of them should do the honour.

Headcanons
Strap in because boi are we in for a ride. These kids went through a lot even in a modern non-war world
They all have an altered negative view on marriage, especially Gabi and Falco.
Both of Falco's parents are deceased, he lives alone with Colt who's trying his hardest to work and take care of both of them, of course Zeke and Pieck help a lot too and try to be his stand in parents.
He knows about love and how good it is, he just thinks marriage would mean you and Reiner might also go away.
Gabi's parents are alive and well, they're just rarely in her life. She's an alone child with no siblings, so far Reiner has been her only relative that she counts as family.
Her parents often leave her at her aunt's house whenever they go on a trip away, or as she started getting older, alone in the house. It gave her a lot of freedom but also a misguided and neglectful life.
Reiner has been trying to fill both roles of her parents for her, and when you came along it was like a dream coming true, she suddenly has someone who truly cares for her being and loves her unconditionally.
So when she heard you were getting married, something in her snapped and fears about you both leaving her too just like her parents clouded her mind.
Udo and Zofia both have their moms only, they bond over it. In Udo's case it was after his father passed away in an accident that his mother became really overprotective and Borderline overbearing.
She's worried about everything, he feels like it's his fault somehow and can't help but copy her anxiety and paranoia.
When he heard about you getting married, he felt a sting of pain and guilt, like he's getting in the way and it never was his real family to begin with.
Zofia's mom is another case, her dad left them when she was younger without a word. Her mother lost trust in anyone after that and was emotionally unavailable.
She saw how hurt her mother was over her dad, she wanted to be strong for her mom and never have to depend on anyone.
So when she heard you were getting married, a sense of dread filled her at realising one of you will hurt the other somehow and she will have to be strong on her own again.
The four of them looked up to you both, were loved and cherished by you both like they've longed for so long.
They fear losing you, they fear losing the warmth, love and care you showed them.
So take it slow with them please, they've been hurt a lot. They don't mean to be ungrateful or rude they're just kids who are terrfied.
Be paitent and slowly introduce them to marriage in a new light, let them grief over their own parents in a healthy way while comforting them. Make them feel included in the planning and wedding and everything and I promise you they'll be fighting for the flower girl spot at the wedding if you just take it slow and gentle.
Yes even Falco and Udo want to be the flower girl.

A Statement Through Horror: BDG and YouTube
In his video announcing his departure from Polygon Bryan David Gilbert [BDG] stated, “I want to make things that one day people will make a show like unraveled about.” [Paraphrasing here]. Since that announcement he has made some of the most interesting and engaging comedy videos on the platform. On Bryan’s channel, there is a section called “bdg’s scaries” that contains three videos. The first how to make jorts was released April 27, 2019 and will not be part of this analysis, as we are focused on the other two videos. These two videos are Earn $20K EVERY MONTH by being your own boss which was released on October 25, 2020 (two months before his final Unraveled video and departure from Polygon) and Teaching Jake about the Camcorder, Jan '97 which was posted March 3, 2021. If you have not seen these videos yet you should stop reading immediately and go watch them both (honestly everything on his channel is amazing, especially the surprisingly compelling and personal Dances Moving! series) before continuing to read this as I will be spoiling both of them. The position of YouTube celebrity has been the source of a good bit of commentary as short form online media has become more and more central in our culture. Bryan has created two videos that I feel do an excellent job of exploring the relationship between youtuber and audience. I should also point out that this is merely my interpretation of these videos and is in no way BDG’s intended message. I’ll start by going over the first video. Earn $20K EVERY MONTH by being your own boss opens with BDG outside an apartment building, standing in front of a black car. BDG points up at one of the windows and says, “Three years ago I was living in that apartment right there. Third floor, leaky windows, cockroaches, the worst.” I do not know if the real life BDG actually lived in that building, but the 3 years timeframe does line up neatly with his beginning to work at Polygon. BDG continues to bad mouth his old apartment and mentions how he has turned it all around stating, “But just last week I paid off my very first Subaru Impreza. And I own my own house in Nebraska.” This radical change in life-style he credits to, “. . . [working] from home, [making] my own hours, and [being] my own boss. And you can do it too.” I think that it is interesting that BDG’s career up to that point mirrors that of his character, going from newly graduated content creator making small videos in his apartment to one of the most popular creators on Polygon. And all that being accomplished through work that many (rightly or wrongly) would not see as fitting into the mold of the traditional 9 to 5. The idea of making millions working from home, at your own pace, and with no boss is intrinsically tied to the mystique of the YouTube celebrity. Moving into BDG’s office he explains that he makes $20k a month working on spreadsheets. A massive spreadsheet appears behind him that is dated, 01.12.88 (nothing of note happened on January 12, 1988 and the only thing that happened on December 1, 1988 is a large cyclone that struck Bangladesh, January 12, 1888 is the day of the Schoolhouse Blizzard which struck the midwestern US and killed 235 people (remember this for later)) and is filled, seemingly randomly, with garbled nonsense symbols. Many of the cells are the same as other cells and there are empty cells scattered haphazardly throughout the spreadsheet. BDG explains that he got this strategy from Dorian Smiles. In exchange for working on these spreadsheets BDG receives $10k - $20k a month (an amount that lines up pretty damn well with the amount he should be getting through his Patreon page currently, I don’t know if this was true when the video was made though) from Dorian. Wanting to know where the money is coming from BDG asks his bank and they explain that he is wiring the money to himself from another account he has. He grows confused as to the nature of this work and the disproportionately large amount of money it brings in, explicitly mentioning his confusion as to how the money is coming from someone with, “. . . my name and my voice.” and sets about to find and confront Dorian Smiles. BDG sets off for Center Nebraska, which is close to where Dorian lives (a small town in the northeast corner of Nebraska). He states that Dorian’s address hasn’t existed since 1888 (that’s a familiar year isn’t it?) when it was supposedly condemned during an enormous blizzard and is, “. . . just woods now.” The video then transitions to BDG walking through dark woods while his narration talking up the Dorian Smiles program continues becoming increasingly broken. He comes across a figure sitting in the woods that is convulsing strangely, when he calls out to it the figure turns and is him (heretofore named Dorian). Dorian slowly puts his hands over his nose and mouth while staring at BDG at which point the narration cuts out. BDG copies Dorian and when Dorian removes his hands in a flourish, BDG does the same to reveal that he no longer has a mouth. The video quickly cuts back to BDG in his office talking about the program, he asks the viewer, “Why don’t you join me?” and then sits back and smiles while that line repeats without him moving his mouth. The most pressing mystery is who Dorian Smiles is. I think the most likely answer (and one I know I am not the progenitor of) is that Dorian is a reference to The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde, the story of a young man that has a portrait that ages and takes on the ravages of the debauched life its subject lives while Dorian himself does not. BDG would therefore be the unwitting recipient of that blessing, reaping massive rewards while his double, Dorian, lives in poverty and solitude. I like this explanation for Dorian, but I find it to be far more mechanical than thematic. On a metatextual level you could read that Dorian represents the character of BDG. The person that is in all of BDG’s videos, and the one with whom so much of the audience forms a parasocial relationship. In this lens the parallels with BDG’s own life make more sense. By this point in BDG’s career it is not difficult to imagine him feeling stifled creatively at work (I feel comfortable saying this given how soon after this video came out that he departed Polygon). His character had grown too large, potentially becoming alien to him, no longer reflecting the art he wanted to make and so he made a video about a distorted version of himself stealing his voice. In this way the video becomes a statement on his artistic integrity and his desire to test new boundaries and go in different directions. In hindsight, with the knowledge of his departure and then success after leaving Polygon, the video becomes almost heartwarming (if it weren’t terrifying) in the same way that a before and after picture of someone improving themselves can be. We will return to the Dorian Smiles system, but now we must move to the second video, Teaching Jake about the Camcorder, Jan '97. I’ll save you the blow by blow breakdown and aim for a quick summary instead. This video is a simple stationary shot of an old CRT tv. A VHS tape is inserted and a video of a man teaching his, evidently young, son how to use a camcorder plays. It is relatively wholesome and corny in that way that all home movies are and when it ends the tape rewinds and the segment plays again, this time with a few deviations. Over replays the father becomes aware of what is happening and begins trying to reason with Jake through the camcorder begging him to stop watching the tape and move on. The father is menaced by a large shadowy figure that does not speak or move when confronted. Eventually the father resorts to simply taking the camera and recording his own screams of pain. On the final rewind the father simply says, “Attaboy.” before calmly walking out the room and into the dark hallway, a doorway opens at the other end, filled with orange light, and the father walks through and down stairs. The final shot of the video is of the television, showing the hallway, as orange light begins to flicker in the background of the left side of the TV. The sound of the father descending the stairs transitions from the TV to diegetic and a shadow appears briefly in the light. On one level the video is clearly a statement about loss and about trauma. Jake is losing himself by watching these videos on repeat, trying in vain to relive a happier time. In that desperate desire to regain what was lost he is distorting it, making it into something it isn’t, hurting it. At the beginning the father says, “Never ever press the rewind button, otherwise you might record over a precious memory. We always keep the recording going forward . . .“ I think there is an additional, and more personal for BDG, reading however. The father is the modern character of BDG, and we, the audience, are Jake. He is pleading with us to leave the past behind and move on. This was only his 3rd video that he posted after leaving Polygon. It is a plea from him to leave the old character behind and stop trying to make one into the other. To stop obsessively comparing the new videos to the old. To let the future be the future and let the past be the past. He is telling us that his new work will not be like the old, that he has progressed past that and that now his viewers need to as well. The detachment and confusion of Earn $20K EVERY MONTH by being your own boss has transformed into a desire to move forward. But he needed to ensure that his audience was ready to come with him, and so he made a video about loss and the dangers of sinking too far into it. I know that there are some of you that feel I am reading too much of what I assume to be BDG’s thoughts and emotions into these interpretations, and I am the first to admit that I might be. In no way am I trying to say these are the only interpretations of these videos or even that they are correct. I think there is so much more of an artist that they put into their work than they realise. I do not know the mind of BDG, only he does, but these videos made me feel that I had a glimpse into the feelings of a man whose work I admire. These videos are either longer or a drastically different tone to the material he has put on his own channel and as such they stood out to me. They felt different, and they seemed to ask for a different level of scrutiny. On some level maybe BDGs videos can not be divorced from the story of BDG as a content creator, the same as any modern internet semi-celebrity, or indeed any artist. I guess there was also a part of me that wanted to answer the call to action I heard when BDG left Polygon, to unravel his work. I hope in some small way I’ve been able to do that.

First Lines
Thank you for the tag @amarillis39​! 
Rule: List the first lines of your last 20 stories. (If you have less than 20, list them all!) See if there are any patterns! 
Tagging anyone who would like to join! 
Bound
Murmurs. The first thing she heard when she awoke.
That’s Another Story
Hermione sank down on her sofa, Crooks by her side, and sipped a cup of tea while she sifted through her post. A letter from Ginny, another from Pansy. Some letters from various fellow researchers asking for reviews and ideas in their own research. She opened the letter from Pansy.
Hermione,
In lieu of your singleness this year, I am sending this “Galentine.” While this Muggle tradition is still odd to me, I wanted you to remember you are amazing! Don’t let your status keep you down! Let me or Harry know if you need anything.  
Pansy
The Bewitching Flower
Her copy of Arthromancy for the Advanced Wizard flew over to her and she opened it, the leather feeling familiar in her hands. She carefully perused the pages to make sure he didn’t deface her property. Each chapter was scanned for any new ink marks or tears. This could be done with a spell, she knew, but doing it by hand just felt better . 
They Were...
They were…happy? Hermione scribbled out the words with her quill. She cleared her mind and tried again. They were…content. The words looked out of place and she shook her head. She tapped the tip of her quill on the paper for a few moments, eyes fixated on the letters scrawled across the page. 
Drabble Collection
His finger touched the Lilac petal, soft and delicate. It brought back the memory of the first time he held her in his arms, her skin soft as silk and she fit perfectly under his chin. 
Holiday Ties
All she had on her mind was this dinner. 
Severn Way
Draco leaned against the door frame of Hermione’s office. She was hunched over her desk, hair frazzled like it was during their Hogwarts days. Quills were poking out this way and that. One quill was in her mouth while another was scribbling on the newest parchment victim on the desk. 
The Luckiest
Draco awoke to a warmth digging into his ribs. A moment later, he felt a bright light assault his eyes. He grumbled. Morning again. He looked down to find an untamed bush of curls moving with the rise and fall of his chest. A smile worked its way across his lips and he sighed.
A Day at the Zoo
“Mum! Mum, wake up!” Scorpius tugged at her pyjama sleeve and leaned in close to her face. “Is today the day we go to see the animals?”
Perfect Timing
Draco couldn’t pinpoint the moment he knew he wanted Hermione Granger, but he did know that he’d loved her for a while. Even if she never saw him as an option to date, or hell, marry, Draco convinced himself that friendship would be enough.
It had to be.
The Kiss
He was in front of her in an instant.
Suddenly, Draco’s eyes were boring into her and she felt light. Her heart dared to beat out of her chest. Her nerves prickled with anticipation.
Then his fingers were tangled in the hair at the nape of her neck and his lips were against hers.
Painfully Ironic
Draco didn’t mind patrols, not really. They were a trivial inconvenience he had to endure, but what made it worse was having to do them with Granger. Swotty, intelligent, puffy haired Granger. She smelled of lilacs, ink, and parchment. The scent was overwhelming, invading his senses and claiming them for her. 
The Black Lace Anniversary
Hermione looked at herself in the mirror. She eyed her body, scrutinizing it.
Multiple pregnancies had been hard on her body. Scorpius left her with a few new stretch marks, Norma too left her own set. The twins came along and left ones on the inside of her thighs, and more around her hips and stomach.
The Path Unexpected
Hermione stared at the glowing orb above her abdomen. The charm had been cast five times to be sure.
She was pregnant.
Simple Fix
Hermione marched into the main room of their flat. Her body was fuming with rage.
Draco turned to look at her, confusion plastered on his face. “What Granger?”
I want your midnights
Draco felt a chill run down his spine. She’s around he thought to himself. The melody of her voice danced in the air. It was haunting the way it made him feel. The way her lips shifted to form every word she spoke was mesmerizing. 
The Melody of Touch
One of Hermione Granger’s favorite things about playing in an orchestra was when the orchestra began to warm up on stage.
Tonight, however, was a different story. The London Philharmonic and guest pianist, Draco Malfoy, were performing together in concert. The program was beautiful but Hermione halted at the fact she would have to sit on a stage and perform music with him. They would be making something together. But all she could think about was the way his fingers caressed the piano keys, and the fact her body knew what it felt like to be touched by those same fingers.
The Borrower
Hermione held her head in her hands and stared at the back of his head. His hair glistened from the afternoon sunlight gleaming through the window of the charms classroom. It looked like the reflection of stars on the lake.

More Beclawed!Rinzler. Fic below the break. AO3 link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/31470140
Rinzler dragged himself to shore, waterlogged and shivering. He slumped into the sand, left hand twitching, claws plunging through the grains. For a while he just laid in the surf, wheezing on water and on the verge of shut down mode. His helmet split open and he gasped his first free breath in cycles.
When he'd finally mustered the strength to lift his head, he saw the portal looming above him, half floating in the gloom. It was dimmed, indicating that the gateway was closed. He could only hope that the other User had made it out beforehand.
It was too late for the older Flynn.
With a great, trembling effort, he heaved himself to his feet, his one hand leaving deep gashes in the ground. He looked at the shape in the pixels, then at the hand that'd caused it, and finally, at the deadened portal. Though the surrounding Grid had been decimated by the explosion, the island itself remained relatively intact. Flawed, somehow, but intact. Like someone had clumsily copied it, atomized it, and then reassembled everything from the pieces.
It struck him that this was a monument to a bygone era. Never again would Users grace the Grid with their presence. Or, at least, not in the same way. Certainly not Flynn. He'd felt the force of Reintegration beneath the waves, had known in an instant that his friend was gone.
How fitting that he'd end up here, too late to help him.
...
Cycles passed without incident. Rinzler settled near the portal, camping in caves and ranging the island during the day-cycle. He nursed his wounds and suckled energy in quiet corners. It was a monotonous, lonely existence.
Still, there were worse locations to land.
The islet had a little spring of energy and plenty of places to shelter. It was a pretty place, with sweeping structures, graceful arches, and shimmering walkways. There were flying buttresses, twisting colonnades, and hollow, hexagonal facades, all lined with light. Best of all, it was isolated from the rest of the Grid, ideal for avoiding his fellow programs.
The only downside was the memories.
It was a problem with which Rinzler frequently grappled. The portal was both his sanctuary and his hell. Every light line evoked Flynn's voice, whether that be witty remarks or sincere farewells. He was plagued by memories that were not entirely his. It felt like it'd all happened to some other person, like his life was divided into two halves—pre-rectification and post-rectification, Tron and Rinzler.
But which half was he in now? Who was he now?
More often than not, he found himself in the shadow of a crumbling edifice, cradling his claws in contemplation.
Perhaps it was for the best that Flynn couldn't see him now. Not like this.
...
A beam of blinding light broke his solitude.
In defiance of all expectations, the portal was lit once more. He'd been huddling in an antre at the time, but upon seeing it, he scrambled to the top shelf of the alcove.
Two figures emerged from its rays. Usually Flynn rezzed at the Arcade entrance in the city, but not these two. They must've found him from the Outside, then reprogrammed the portal to send them here, where he was closest.
He recognized them immediately.
"I'm Quorra, and this is Sam," said the first figure.
"We've met," Sam-Flynn said tersely.
Guarding his expression, Tron regarded the two visitants. Sam still bore his father's face and still carried the wounds from their last encounter. Tron's eyes traced the deep nicks along his cheek and jaw, like a mirror to the scars on Tron's left. An uncomfortable guilt began to claw at his insides.
The woman, on the other hand, was more puzzling. He'd seen her once before, but she was different now. Her shorn hair was a little longer, though no less uneven. Her light lines seemed brighter and her face shone with newfound confidence. There was something else as well, something that Tron couldn't quite classify.
User? ISO? His scans kept sending back conflicting information.
She approached him with an arm stretched out, not to ward him away, but in invitation. The act threw him completely off-kilter. No one ever wanted to touch him, and when they did, it was usually because he'd done something wrong. Touch meant pain.
A horrible growl tore from Rinzler's ruined throat. At the same time, his circuits flashed crimson. His eyes measured the distance between them and he took two steps back to compensate for the loss. The distance made him feel safer, if only slightly.
"Quorra-" Fast as sparks, Sam put a hand on her shoulder. "Let's just go. It's not worth it."
Reluctantly, Quorra rolled back on her heels, and Rinzler's snarls died down. Her eyes softened but Rinzler balked at the sadness inside them. He didn't need anyone's sympathy, nor did he want it.
"Another time, maybe," she ventured, allowing Sam to steer her away.
"Another time," Sam agreed.
Neither one of them turned their backs until they were almost directly under the code stream. Tron watched as each loosened their discs and held them into the beam.
Over her shoulder, Quorra said, "I'm sorry if I startled you-!" The words were only half out of her mouth before she was swept up through the funnel. One nano there was a body, and the next there was nothing. Only light was left behind.
Sam-Flynn also paused just before passing into the portal's light. The relief building in Tron at their departure stuttered in his chest. Unbidden, he felt the hackles rising along his neck. Sam seemed to sense his unease, because his gaze never quite moved above Tron's neck and his heels scuffed against the plateau.
"For the record, that thing I said earlier- it didn't come out right." Eyes flashing, he drew himself up and set his shoulders. In that moment, he'd never looked more like a Flynn. "You are worth it... Maybe not the scratches, though. Those hurt like a bitch."
...
The second time Sam-Flynn and Quorra visited, they brought gifts.
"It's called a rose," said Quorra, extending the flower like it was a peace offering. "They grow in the User world, and Users keep them around because they're pretty.
Tron stood like a statue, flummoxed by this otherworldly bloom. Despite his attempts at aloofness, a prickle of interest coursed through his code. He cocked his head to the side but did not approach. Quorra took the gesture as an invitation and moved boldly forward, heedless to Sam sputtering behind her. Step by step, she closed the expanse between them.
At last, Tron's curiosity got the better of him. He met Quorra halfway and stretched forth his dominant hand. Out of reflex, the claws came out, and he held back for fear of cutting her. He swallowed, counting the nanos until the prongs retracted, hyper-aware of the woman's patient scrutiny.
He gripped the 'rose' by its stem, just under the bud, and balanced it precariously between the pads of two fingers. Somewhere in the background Sam made a noise and Rinzler reacted without thinking. He tore back his hand like it'd been scalded, taking the rose with him. Quorra didn't flinch.
Gently, Tron examined his new prize. He brushed the bulb with an index claw before plucking a single petal, marvelling at its colour. Red, like his old circuits. Red, like the blood shed by Sam-Flynn in that arena.
His finger moved downward, dislodging the petal in the process. It fluttered to the floor as he caressed the spiked stalk. Every movement was met with a bump as his nail travelled over tiny thorns embedded in the stem. Barbs, so much like the talons gracing his left hand. Next to the rose, they almost looked... elegant, more like an adornment than a disfigurement.
So many pretty things in the User World...
Over time his growl softened into a sort of chirring. He cradled the small sprig to his chest, oblivious to the thorns plucking at his circuits or the stares from his guests. Sam's forced verve vanished in the face of a genuine smile, which was mirrored tenfold by his companion.
Quorra spoke softly, "If you'd like, we can come back and bring some more...? Would you like that?"
Rinzler's silence was all the assent she needed.

Miracle Romance
"Oh my god." Alana gasped with tears in her eyes. She stood in front of a large mirror and stared at herself. "I finally look like Serenity." She smiled as she left the dressing room and showed herself to Nathaniel. "You look amazing." Nathaniel smiled. Alana began to cry. “For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be like her... And now, even for a few moments... I can be her.” Tears made their way down her face as she smiled. "I guess I have to break your one rule." Nathaniel smiled. "You are not dying your hair black." Alana remarked. "I could wear a wig." Nathaniel replied. “But Nath... We talked about this...” Alana began. "I am not letting anyone else be your Endymion." Nathaniel interjected.
Throughout Alana's life, she had made it very clear that Sailor Moon had been a staple to her. It was a staple in the Roster family. By the time Alana reached the point of living in the Black Tower, at least four generations of the family enjoyed it. Including both primary sets of sisters, Margaret and little Ravenna.
She would play pretend with Viktor, Severina and Sam when they were children. She would always be Sailor Moon and Princess Serenity, Viktor was Tuxedo Mask and Prince Endymion, Severina was Sailor Venus and Sam was always Sailor Jupiter. The tree house in Alana's backyard was often the Moon Kingdom and they would frequently save the world. The adventures would always end with the power of love winning and the kids going into the house for a snack.
As the kids reached adolescence, they were forced to stop playing. But, their love of the anime was still prevalent. Alana always kept up with merchandise news and rumors about the release of a second anime. Lynne had made sure that Alana and Sam had their own copies of the manga, original anime and movies. Viktor happily talked about being Endymion to Alana’s Serenity until they were forced to break up. They wanted to continue the fantasy, but circumstance parted them. Severina was always happy to talk to everyone, and toss out ideas for a proper cosplay group, but Sam dampened the idea with the reminder that, as long as Viktor’s and Severina’s fathers remained in control of their lives, they’d never be allowed to do so.
When Lynne moved Alana and Sam to Amouria, things began to change. "She won't shut up about that Nathaniel guy." Viktor growled as he sat down next to Severina. “Viktor, you knew from the day one that you and Mels weren't allowed to be together. She has to find her Endymion." Severina sighed. “But seriously? aunt Lynne moves her and Sam to Amouria and they both immediately find guys they like?” Viktor complained. “You know Mels talks about other guys too. Right now, it could be Castiel, Lysander, Armin or Nathaniel.” Severina tried to make things sound better. “No, it's definitely Nathaniel. She barely mentions the others to me. Mostly about Armin playing games, Castiel being an ass, and Lysander losing his notebook. But she dotes on Nathaniel a lot.” Viktor retorted. Severina sighed. "Viktor... Do you remember what happened to Adonis and Beryl? Their envy got the best of them, they became evil and they died. Please keep a clear head.” She reasoned. "I am not like Adonis and Beryl." Viktor shot. “Viktor, I can't believe I have to be the voice of reason here. Both of our moms made it very clear that aunt Lynne, Mels and Sam have more freedom than we do. They're not blue bloods. They have to find their miracle elsewhere... Although, you and I will probably end up being paired together in an arranged marriage set up by our fathers.” She explained. Viktor thought for a couple of minutes and sighed. "I just thought..." 
The first time Nathaniel ever went into Alana's room, he instantly noticed her Sailor Moon dolls. "They're really hard to find these days... And Sailor Moon means a lot to me..." She said as she explained what the show meant to her. “It's a connection to my past, my closest friends, and my family.” She smiled. Nathaniel looked puzzled for a bit, then smiled. "That's really sweet.". He smiled. He noticed a picture of her, Sam, Severina and Viktor on a shelf and picked it up. “You all look like you’re having so much fun.” He mused. “Yeah... That’s the only time we’ve ever been able to dress up.” Alana sighed, wistfully. The kids were in makeshift Sailor Scout uniforms. Their hair wasn’t perfect, and Viktor’s tux didn’t fit right, but they didn’t care. The photo had been taken a few weeks before Cosima Chevalier’s death, and was one of the last happy memories they had as a group. “Its cute.” Nathaniel chuckled as he looked at her lovingly.
When her mother went into the hospital, Nate arranged it to where Alana and Lynne could sit and watch whatever they wanted in the room. Lynne suggested marathoning Sailor Moon. The days in the hospital weren't as bad when they watched the show and Lynne stayed stable, but there were days where not even fighting evil by moonlight could save the day. But, that didn't keep them from trying. It didn't take them long to get through all five seasons and three movies of the original anime. “I heard they're making a second anime that's supposed to be closer to the manga!” Alana attempted to be cheery. She was sure that she, Severina and Sam had told her about Crystal, but she really couldn’t think of anything positive to say.  “That's lovely! Do you know when it's set to come out?” Lynne asked. “I have no idea. I'm sure Toei will update us when they can!” Alana replied. “I hope its soon.” Lynne smiled. Suddenly, Lynne began coughing and her monitors started to go off. “NURSE! HELP!” Alana cried.
Even when Sam and Alana fought so badly that the Military and RDR felt it was necessary to create a treaty between the two organizations to prevent the sisters from ever being enemies again, it was actually their love of Sailor Moon that truly began to bring them together again. Severina had gotten wind of the fight and forced the girls to go to her house. “OW! RINI! YOU'RE HURTING MY EAR!” Alana whined. “Seriously! What the hell?” Sam whined. “I don't care if I'm hurting you two! This kind of fighting is unacceptable! You two are sisters and you know that this behavior will tear the family apart! I won't allow that!" Severina began to cry as she lead the sisters to her home theater. "What's all this?" Alana asked. "You've forced my hand, so I'm pulling out the big guns!" Severina cried as she grabbed a remote and turned on the screen. Sam and Alana looked at the menu then at each other. "Go figure." Sam grinned. "Of course." Alana grinned. The menu on the screen was the DVD menu to Sailor Moon R: The Promise Of The Rose. By the time the song “The Power Of Love” was playing, tears were streaming down the sisters' faces. "Mels." Sam began to choke. "Sam." Alana's voice wavered. They looked at each other, sadness and regret in their eyes. “Mels... I’m s-so s-sorry f-for what I-I said..” Sam sniffled. “I’m s-sorry t-too S-Sami...” Alana blubbered as she hugged Sam. “I love you.” Sam muttered as she held onto her sister. “I love you too.” Alana murmured. 
When Death’s Domain was getting set up, Alana dedicated a whole room to the series. “You’re seriously going to have an entire room dedicated to Sailor Moon?” Derek had asked. “Yes. Its going to have shelves for merch, posters, and a couch to relax on.” Alana mused. “Melody can have whatever she wants for her apartment. And, if it helps her destress, I most definitely approve.” The  Red Death announced. “Well, the majority of my collection will be in there. There’s going to be something Sailor Moon related in every room.” Alana smiled. “Of course there will be.” Derek facepalmed. “I’m not apologizing. I love Sailor Moon and I wanna showcase it in my home.” Alana laughed. “And I’m sure you’re going to do nothing but post about your collection for a while.” Derek rolled his eyes. “Obviously. Moonies have a good presence online.” Alana mused. “I thought “Moonies” were people who followed the Unification Church?” The Red Death inquired. “Yeah, they are called that, but Sailor Moon fans are also called “Moonies”. I know, in certain circles, I have to be sure to differentiate... But, its what we’re called.” Alana explained as she shrugged her shoulders. The room ended up becoming a paradise for fans of the series. Shelves filled with various collectibles, a couch decorated with two throw pillows and a blanket, a coffee table with two sets of coasters, a large rug, framed posters, plushies, moon and star lights along the walls and showering down the window and a tv mounted on one wall. In contrast to the vast majority of Death’s Domain, the room was an explosion of bright colors.
Nathaniel stepped into the restroom for a few minutes. Alana watched the door in anticipation. When he came out, he was running his hands along the circumference of the black wig, making sure it was in its proper place. The thought of how similar he looked to Viktor shot through her mind. She did her best to suppress that thought. "You don't even like cosplay..." She muttered as she smiled. "You do so much for me, I don't mind doing this for you." He grinned. "Nathaniel! I love you!” She cried as she wrapped her arms around him. “I knew I was going to see Princess Serenity, I didn't know Prince Endymion would be with her!” someone called from behind them. They turned around and saw Sam leaning in the doorway. “Sam! I look just like her!” Alana cried. "I wonder if I can get Ken to be Nephrite." Sam commented. “I'm sure he would be if you asked him. You two would be the perfect Jupiter and Nephrite!” Alana beamed. “I didn't know this was turning into a full on cosplay group!” Ken laughed as he walked up behind Sam. "Why not?" Sam asked. "I'm not sure Viktor would appreciate being Kunzite." Alana remarked. “He'd have to get used to it. Since Nathaniel is Endymion, that demotes Viktor to Kunzite.” Sam stated. "Right because when you guys were kids, Viktor was always Endymion." Nathaniel rolled his eyes. “Viktor has had years to accept his position in my sister's life. If he doesn't accept it, it will not end well for him.” Sam replied. "Do you think he will?" Nathaniel asked. "If he truly cares about her, he will." Sam nodded. “Viktor has known for years that our time ended long ago. Accepting his new position is painful for him, but he is well aware of the fact that it's something that he must do.” Alana explained.
A few minutes later, Renee walked into the room. “You both look magnificent! The girls and I have gotten a backdrop ready, would you two mind taking a few pictures?” She beamed. Alana smiled and turned to Nathaniel, a very hopeful look on her face. "Would you be okay with that?" She asked. Nathaniel nodded. "Sure." He grinned. They followed Renee into a room. "Oh my god! You two look utterly amazing!”, “You look beautiful Mels! Nathaniel, you look so handsome!”, “True Moon and Earth royalty!” the other girls cooed when they saw them. “I think we should do a cosplay group. I'm Jupiter and Rini will be Venus.” Sam commented when she walked in. "I volunteer to be Mercury!" Renee cheered. "I'll be Mars." Lyra smiled. "I'll be Pluto." Veronica beamed. "I don't mind being Saturn." Nora suggested. "I wonder if we could get Lucy and Noelle to be Uranus and Neptune." Sam pondered. "We could also see about getting Ravenna to be Chibi Moon." Alana proposed. “I think that would be fantastic. Who would be the rest of the Shitennou?” Lyra asked. "I could see if Armin could be Jadeite." Alana thought out loud. "Are we really setting up a cosplay group?" Nathaniel asked. Sam looked at Nath, as if he had said something really stupid. "Do you not realize how highly rated Sailor Moon cosplay groups are?" She asked. Nathaniel shook his head. “Sailor Moon cosplay groups are some of the most elite cosplayers in the anime world. Sailor Moon being one of the most iconic anime in history, it is instantly recognizable. The cosplayers take some of the most beautiful pictures, make some of the coolest videos, and even do events. They may not be unionized like Star Wars' 501st Legion, but they come together and coalesce with great ease whenever they recognize each other. Children who recognize them run up to them the same way that they do with superheroes, and typically, they are nice to them. It is a sisterhood of love and justice.” Sam explained. "Not to mention how fun it would be to finally be in one." Alana cooed. “We'd still need Zoisite.” Veronica stated. "I wonder if Derek could be him." Nora pondered. “Uh, guys? Can we please get to the photoshoot?” Renee asked impatiently. 
After posting for photos for what felt like an eternity, Nathaniel and Alana went into the changing room to get out of their cosplays. "You do look really beautiful in that." Nathaniel smiled as he took the black wig off. Alana blushed. "Do you really think so?" She asked nervously. “Of course. You look magnificent.” He blushed as he walked over to her and kissed her. “Thank you for doing this my love. It means the world to me.” Tears came to Alana's eyes as she spoke. “I love you my Melody.” Nathaniel cooed as he wiped a tear from her cheek. “I love you so much Nathaniel!” She mused as she threw her arms around him.
A few weeks later, in the early hours of the morning, several cars arrived at an old castle in the country. “This place looks amazing! Perfect for our photo shoot!” Alana cheered as she got out of the car. “Welcome to the Astarian Royal Palace Lady Melody!” A woman with long brown hair, sunglasses and wearing a knee length blue dress beamed as she walked up to them. “Mrs. Reynard, I presume?” Alana asked as she shook the woman's hand. “Yes ma'am. We spoke over the phone.” the woman smiled. “You are fully aware as to why we need the palace today. Am I correct?” Alana inquired. “Yes. For your little photoshoot. Cosplay, I believe.” Mrs. Reynard replied. “Yes. Sailor Moon. Its important the palace be the backdrop to this shoot.” Alana stated. “The photographer will be here in a few minutes to set up. They'll need time.” Mrs. Reynard explained. “That's fine. We need time to prepare.” Alana smiled.
After a couple of hours, the members of the group began to step out of their respective preparation rooms and into a lounge. Lynne Roster as Queen Serenity, Sam as Sailor Jupiter, Severina as Sailor Venus, Renee as Sailor Mercury, Lyra as Sailor Mars, Noelle as Sailor Uranus, Lucy as Sailor Neptune, Nora as Sailor Saturn, Veronica as Sailor Pluto, Ravenna as Small Lady Serenity, Viktor as Kunzite, Ken as Nephrite, Armin as Jadeite, Derek as Zoisite, Nathaniel as Prince Endymion and Alana as Princess Serenity. When the entire group was gathered in the lounge, tears filled Alana's eyes. “It's so beautiful!” she happily cried out. “Awe! Mels!” Severina cheered as she hugged Alana. “This was a fantastic idea!” Lynne beamed. "How long do we all need to wear this?" Armin asked, slightly uncomfortable. “Just a few hours. We're gonna get a TON of shots! ” someone replied as they walked up. It was a young woman with short platinum blonde hair, bright green eyes, and pale skin. She wore black pants, a white button up top and a deep blue beret. "You all look so regal!" She cheered. “Alright everyone, let me introduce you to you Catarina. She's a friend of mine from boarding school. She's the photographer I told you guys about!” Severina introduced. “Hello everyone! It is an absolute pleasure to meet you all!” Catherine bowed. ” Severina introduced. “Hello everyone! It is an absolute pleasure to meet you all!” Catherine bowed.
The photoshoot took several hours, and took place at various locations within the castle grounds. Lynne insisted on at least one family shot with Sam and Alana, and one with Sam, Alana, Severina, Ravenna, Ken, Nathaniel, and Viktor. “This is odd. I don't quite know the anime, but those characters aren't actually family, aren't they?” Catarina asked, curiously. “Not exactly... I mean, Queen Serenity, Princess Serenity, and Small Lady Serenity are three generations of lunar royalty, and Prince Endymion is Princess Serenity's husband and Sailor Chibi Moon's father... But, this shot isn't about the show's family. It's about their family.” Lyra explained. “Oh. That's sweet!” Catarina smiled. Alana insisted each “couple” got their own picture. Viktor wasn't too happy that his couldn't be with Alana, but he didn't mind posing with Severina. Kentin was very happy to have a romantic pose with Sam. "Nephrite and Jupiter look so fantastic!" Renee cheered. “Are you kidding? I've been wanting to do this set for a long time!” Sam beamed. “My favorite part of all of this. I hate this wig, but being your knight is worth it.” Ken mused as he looked at Sam lovingly. "This is awkward." Derek rolled his eyes when he and Renee had their turn. "Oh grow up!" Renee snapped. "Derek... You know what happens when Renee gets mad!" Alana laughed. “Yeah... She gets pretty scary.” Derek sighed. Everyone laughed as Renee forced Derek into a somewhat romantic pose. "But this is so awkward!" Derek whined. "Just do it!" Renee demanded. When their part of the shoot ended, Derek sat down and shot back a bottle of water. “That was weird. "Lyra, Armin, you're up!" Alana cheered. “Now this will be interesting! ” Ken chuckled. “And in Dragon Ball references Armin! Toei may own both franchises, but now is not the time to try to mix the two!” Sam ordered. “Awe come on! That takes part of the fun out of it!” Armin whined. “Armin, if we were doing a smaller photoshoot, I wouldn't mind a few “fun” shots. So please be more serious.” Alana urgent. "Fine." Armin sighed as he and Lyra took their places in front of the camera. 
“God that was exhausting! Who'd have thought that Cosplay would be THAT much work?” Nathaniel whined he crashed onto the living room couch at Death's Domain. "If you had cosplayed as the Winter Soldier when Armin and I cosplayed as Captain America and Black Widow at that Marvel Exhibition in High School, you would have known, first hand, A LOT sooner!" Alana shot as she crashed down next to him. "You still won't let me live that down?" He asked. "Nope." She chuckled. "Why not?" He asked. “Because Armin and I worked our asses off to do our characters justice and we were hoping you would join in on the fun. Especially considering how Natasha and Bucky get together in the comics several times, so it would have been a cute “couple's cosplay” for you and me. Not to mention how cosplay is more than just “wearing a costume”. When someone properly cosplays, they also wish to play the character, even for just a day. They temporarily escape reality and enter the one the character they're cosplaying as resides in. Weeks, months, and even years are spent building props and even hand making the items and outfits. There is a lot of blood, sweat and tears that go into it!” She explained. "I know you and Armin love it, but I don't think I could do it as often as you want to." Nathaniel sighed. “I get that. Its not for everybody. But, I'm thankful you did it for me.” Alana Mused. “I love you Alana. You always do so much for me... And it has been a long time since I've been the "prince" to your "princess." He grinned. "And I'm sure rubbing it Viktor's face added to your enjoyment.” She chuckled. "That did make it a bit more fun." He smirked. "I really wish you wouldn't antagonize him." She sighed. over you and find someone else. It's the same with Castiel. You're not going to be with him, so he needs to quit pining." He shot. "Yes, but with Castiel, you two have reached a mutual agreement, and he has angered me in such a way that I spat that truth with him." She chimed in. "Which makes the situation with Viktor worse. had your family and Severina telling him for years... Yet he insists." He huffed as he rolled his eyes. "Despite that, he is still one of my best and oldest friends. We were raised together and are still like family. Can you at least try to play nice with him?" She requested. Nathaniel looked at her annoyed. "Please! Pretty please! My sweet Endymion…” Alana begged as she playfully batted her eyes. He thought for a minute and exhaled. “Fine. ” He sighed. "Thank you." She mused. “But if he oversteps the boundaries that you and I put in place, I won't be so kind.” He stated. She cuddled up next to him and kissed his cheek. "I love you Nathaniel." She cooed. He put his arms around her and kissed her forehead. "I love you too Alana."
Several weeks later, after the images from the photoshoot had been posted and gone viral, an idea came to Severina's mind. She turned to Alana and Sam and smiled. "What?" Sam asked. “What if we did a cosplay concert?!” Severina cheered. “Nope. I'm not singing.” Alana stated. “PLEASE! We could choose a song from Sailor Moon and singing it at a convention!” Severina urged. “Really? What song would we even do?” Sam asked. “What about “Moon Effect”? It's sung by all of the scouts!” Severina cheered. “Please no. I don't sing.” Alana begged. "But, you wouldn't be alone... And we can't do it without our Sailor Moon!" Sam sneered. “Honey... You're such a beautiful singer! Please!!!!” Severina pleaded. “No…” Alana muttered. “Damn it Mels! Just do it! We all know that you sing when you're alone! On top of that, Nath, Rini, Viktor, Mom and I have all been telling you for years that we all think your singing is beautiful! So, just do it!” Sam snapped. "Don't forget how your teammates think so too." Severina added. Alana thought for a few minutes and huffed. “Fine. I'll do it.” She sighed. “Huzzah! Let's do it at Comic Con!” Sam cheered. "No! That’s too big a venue!" Alana pleaded "That's why it should be done there! You'll get over your stage fright on one of the biggest stages on the Convention Circuit!" Sam explained. "My babies singing a Sailor Moon song in full cosplay? I'd love to help you with it!" Lynne cheered as she walked up to them. "Fantastic! We'll make it a family project!" Severina smiled. Alana looked around at the other women, thought for a few minutes, sighed, and sheepishly grinned. “I guess the Roster Family women are putting on a show!”
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Words cannot describe how badly I've wanted to write something Sailor Moon related to my story... 
Sailor Moon means a lot to me... It was my mom’s and my “thing”. No matter how much we fought, argued, and went at each other’s throats, we always bonded over the series. The first and last time I watched it in it’s entirety was with her just before her disease started taking its hold. She was the one who got me my first bits of merch, who was always happy to talk to me about it. The last Christmas gift I got her was a blanket with all the scouts on it, and she gave me plushies of Luna and Artemis. When mom died, Sailor Moon came to mean so much more to me. My aunt made me pendants with her ashes in them that look like the Legendary Silver Crystal, I got Pluto’s Garnet Rod tattooed on my back, and I became more adamant about collecting items. Each time I get a new item, I feel closer to her... There are times where I’ll even burst into tears because of Sailor Moon making me think of her....
Yes, I used the character sprite of Nathaniel that I edited from the Dark Chocolate Steward to make him look more like Endymion. I made his hair black, and edited his rings and earrings out.
Little tip... The bit about Adonis won't make sense unless you've read the Codename Sailor V manga.... If you’re not in the mood to read it, Adonis was a lowly Venusian soldier who was in love with his princess (Venus). Venus fell in love with Kunzite instead of him. He found her on Earth and cursed her to never be able to have love again, thus freeing more of her time up to focus on her duty as the leader of Princess Serenity’s Sailor Guardians.
This was originally going to be a Valentine's Day special for 2020. Then 2020 became the dumpster fire that it was and my real life needed more of my attention....
The majority of this does take place during the first year between University Life and Love Life. Before Nath and Alana go on their globe trotting adventure. The flashback section takes place at various points in time.
