W/C: 3,369 | Penguin x You, afab!reader, fluffy, birthday celebration, R18-ish. A/N: April 25 is Penguin's birthday and this is for all the Penguin lovers out there. Please enjoy this short story! I would also appreciate comments too. Thank you!
The sun drifted towards its evening perch, you finally wrapped up your day's duties aboard the submarine. The salty sea air lingered as you made your way to your quarters, eager to freshen up after a long day below deck. With the gentle hum of machinery in the background, you indulged in a well-deserved bath, the warm water easing the fatigue from your muscles.
After drying off, you pampered yourself with a lotion that exuded the crisp scent of cucumbers, filling the air with a revitalizing aroma. You slipped into a crisp, freshly ironed white suit, feeling as sharp as a well-honed blade.
With a smile playing on your lips, you settled onto your bed in an Indian sit, carefully securing the gift with the ribbon.
"I really hope he'll like this," you whispered to yourself, your thoughts drifting to Penguin, the recipient of your heartfelt gesture. The wrapping paper, adorned with cheerful blue and yellow stripes, complemented by a vibrant red ribbon, added a festive touch to the present. Placing the gift on your desk, you made your way out of your quarters.
As you navigated the narrow corridors of the submarine, you spotted Penguin engaged in conversation with Law and Shachi. Their voices trailed off as they reached a corner, their animated gestures punctuating the air. You watched as they exchanged parting words, Law and Shachi disappearing down one corridor while Penguin sauntered in your direction, his attention still lingering on his departed crewmates.
"Penguin!" you exclaimed as your Captain and Shachi vanished from sight. The excitement bubbling in your chest bursting forth in your voice, echoing down the corridor.
With a grin spreading across his face like the sun breaking through storm clouds, Penguin watched as you sprinted towards him, your eagerness was evident in each bounding step. His arms instinctively opened wide, ready to envelop you in a warm embrace. As you leapt into his waiting arms, he staggered back slightly from the impact, his muscles tensing to steady both of you. Wrapping his arms securely around your waist, he lifted you effortlessly, feeling the weight of your affection as you wrapped your arms around his neck.
Pressing his face into the soft skin of your neck, Penguin inhaled deeply, breathing in the alluring fragrance that enveloped you. "God, you smell so good," he murmured, his voice muffled against your skin and you melted into his arms.
"I missed you," your whispered, the words carrying the weight of your longing.
Your confession elicited a soft chuckle from him, his warm breath sending shivers down your spine.
"Missed me? I just went out of the sub early morning," he teased, his playful tone laced with affection.
As he continued to hold you close, you leaned back slightly, craning your neck to meet his gaze. With a tender smile, you brushed your nose against his. You basked in the warmth of his presence, the world around you fading into insignificance in the embrace of your shared moment.
Setting you gently back on your feet, Penguin lowered his head, pressing a tender kiss to your forehead. "You're the best thing that happened to me," he murmured, his words laden with sincerity, causing a rush of warmth to flood your cheeks in response to his heartfelt declaration.
In the wake of his admission, you found your voice, though it emerged soft and slightly shy. "Likewise," you replied, your gaze momentarily dropping to the floor before lifting to meet his once more, a shy smile playing at the corners of your lips. As you walked side by side, you latched on his left forearm, you made your way down the corridor toward the galley, your footsteps matching the comforting feeling of being together.
"Say, what happened to your adventure today?" you inquired, curiosity glinting in your eyes as you glanced up at him.
Penguin, with a thoughtful pout and a gentle stroke of his chin, recounted the day's events. "Hmm, everything went well according to Law's plans. Unfortunately, we also ran into a couple of Navy soldiers, but we managed," he explained, his voice carrying a hint of resilience despite the challenges they faced.
Suddenly, you halted in your tracks, moving in front of him, your concern palpable as you scanned his form for any signs of injury. "What? Are you hurt?" you questioned, your voice laced with genuine worry, your eyes darting over every inch of his physique.
He reassured you with a gentle touch, brushing a hand against your chin. "Hey, I'm fine," he replied, his tone soft yet firm, before cupping your face in his hands. "I appreciate your concern," he added, his gaze tender as it met yours, the depth of his gratitude reflected in the warmth of his touch.
"If that's the case..." You exclaimed, seizing his arm in your excitement. "I'm already starving!" With a playful tug, you urged him forward, leading the way towards the galley.
"What's the rush?" Penguin questioned, his tone laced with amusement, but he yielded to your enthusiasm, nonetheless.
Arriving at the closed door of the galley, you knocked three times.
"Why is this closed?" Penguin queried; his curiosity piqued as he pushed the door open.
As the door swung wide, revealing the scene within, Penguin's eyes widened in surprise, a chorus of "SURPRISE!" echoing through the room as balloons and confetti danced in the air. The entire crew was gathered there, their faces lit up with anticipation and joy, even Law, leaning against the wall in the corner, wearing a rare smile.
"Happy Birthday!" you exclaimed, a grin spreading across your face as you met Penguin's stunned gaze.
Brushing the back of his neck in embarrassment yet touched by the gesture, Penguin glanced around at the assembled crew, a mixture of gratitude and bashfulness playing across his features.
"It's her idea," Shachi interjected, beaming proudly at Penguin. Meeting your gaze with a silent promise of gratitude, Penguin's expression softened into a silent acknowledgment, his eyes reflecting the depth of his appreciation for your thoughtful surprise.
Penguin made his way through the gathered crew, he exchanged brotherly hugs, receiving taps on the shoulder and forearm and fist bumps from each member. Meanwhile, you took the initiative, pulling Shachi along to help distribute plates and utensils among the group.
As Penguin approached, you handed him a plate, but he gently intervened, taking it from you. "You sit down and let me serve you," he insisted, his hand resting warmly on your back as he guided you to a seat. Your eyes lingered on him as he moved gracefully around the galley, a fond smile playing at the corners of your lips.
"Guys! Food's gonna get cold, Help yourselves!" Penguin's voice rang out above the chatter, drawing everyone's attention to the spread before them. The meal was simple yet ample, nothing extravagant but enough to share among the assembled crew. Laughter and conversation filled the room as everyone dug in.
Emerging from the crowd with a plate in hand, Penguin settled beside you, placing the dish on the table before you. "Here!" he offered with a warm smile.
"Aren't you going to eat? Don't you like the food?" you questioned, furrowing your brow in puzzlement, concerned that perhaps the fare wasn't to his liking.
"It's not like that," Penguin reassured you, his tone gentle yet firm. "Seeing you is enough to make my heart full," he teased, his fingers brushing a stray hair behind your ear, eliciting a soft blush from you.
"Penguin! Really? Flirting in front of us?" Shachi exclaimed in mock disbelief, though his tone carried a friendly warmth.
Penguin simply laughed, the sound filling the room with a contagious joy as the celebration continued, surrounded by the camaraderie of friends and the comfort of shared moments.
After finishing your meal, you carried your plate to the sink before joining the other crew members in conversation, laughter, and camaraderie filling the air.
Meanwhile, Penguin made his way to Law, who stood with his arms crossed, a mug in hand. Penguin mirrored his posture, leaning casually against the wall with one hand slipped into his pocket, mug in the other. With a raised mug, Penguin initiated a toast, and Law obliged with a nod.
"Hey Law," Penguin began, his tone casual yet curious as he struck up a conversation.
"I can't believe she'd pull off something like this. Perhaps you also knew about this?" Penguin inquired, his eyebrows lifting in surprise.
Law took a sip from his mug before responding. "Yeah, two weeks ago," he admitted, a hint of amusement in his voice.
Penguin's surprise was evident. "Oh? Damn, right under my nose," he mused, a wry smile tugging at his lips.
Law smirked knowingly. "Of course you wouldn't know. It's a surprise, after all," he quipped. Penguin’s gaze drifting towards you as you laughed and chatted with the rest of the crew, unaware of the conversation taking place.
"Well, I just wanna say thank you," Penguin expressed his gratitude, his voice sincere as he glanced back at Law.
"Don't mention it," Law replied nonchalantly. "She approached and asked nicely. It wasn't a big deal," he added with a shrug.
There was a brief pause before Penguin resumed their conversation, his tone shifting slightly.
"Aren't you jealous?" Penguin asked, a playful glint in his eye.
Law's brow furrowed at the unexpected question. "Pardon?" he responded, caught off guard.
"I told you, you should be getting yourself a girlfriend," Penguin teased, nudging Law lightly.
"Not a chance. It's not even on my list of priorities," Law replied with a hint of finality, his stance unwavering.
As you scanned the crowd, your smile widened as you spotted Penguin standing beside Law. Meeting his loving gaze, you exchanged a silent moment of affection before Law's dry humor interrupted the tender exchange.
"If staring could ignite a fire, you'd have already burned her to the ground," Law quipped, his tone laced with playful jest.
Penguin chuckled in response, shaking his head at Law's comment.
Handing his mug to Penguin, Law pushed himself off the wall, indicating his impending departure. "I've got a lot of things to do," he informed Penguin as he excused himself with a nod and a tap on Penguin's shoulder.
With the crew gradually trickling out of the galley, leaving only a few to assist with the cleanup, Ikkaku intervened, ushering you and Penguin towards the exit with a playful grin. "You lovebirds may go now, we can handle this," she insisted, giving you a wink as she nudged you out of the hall.
"I'm in your debt," you replied gratefully, returning her wink.
You and Penguin exited the galley hand in hand, a sense of anticipation hanging between you as you mentioned the surprise you still had in store for him.
"Still more surprises?" Penguin exclaimed, a hint of nervousness creeping into his voice. "I'm getting nervous with this," he admitted with a sheepish grin.
Stopping in front of the female shared quarters, you opened the door, inviting Penguin inside with a playful gesture.
"Come in!" you urged, stepping over the threshold as Penguin hesitated, his cheeks flushing slightly.
"What are we? We don't have to—" Penguin stammered, his words faltering as he struggled to articulate his thoughts.
"Silly! What are you thinking?" you interjected with a laugh, playfully swatting his arm as you closed and locked the door behind you, the soft click signaling your privacy.
Penguin stood just behind the door; his curiosity evident in his gaze as you retrieved the gift you had prepared for him from your desk.
"Happy Birthday!" you exclaimed, presenting the gift with both hands.
"No way!" Penguin exclaimed, stepping forward eagerly to accept the gift, his excitement palpable.
"Yes way!" you replied, your smile warm and genuine. "I hope you'll love it," you added, your anticipation mirroring his own.
"May I open it now?" Penguin asked eagerly, his eyes shining with anticipation as the two of you settled on the edge of your bed. With a nod from you, Penguin eagerly tore into the wrapping paper like a child on Christmas morning, the excitement of the moment filling the room with a sense of joy and intimacy.
Inside the box lay a midnight blue, knitted scarf adorned with white lining at the sides, perfectly complemented by a matching wool hat, mirroring the one Penguin wore.
"You did this?" Penguin marveled, pulling the gift from the box and running his hand over the soft texture of the garments, still awestruck by the thoughtful present.
"Remember when I asked you to buy me a bundle of yarn?" you prompted him, your voice tinged with a hint of nostalgia.
"Yeah, it was a weird request from you at the time. I think it was about three months ago?" Penguin recalled, his fingers deftly inspecting the scarf as he wrapped it snugly around his neck.
"Well, that's the yarn you bought for me. I started knitting as soon as you gave me the materials," you explained matter-of-factly, a slight blush tingeing your cheeks as you looked down, your fingers fidgeting nervously. "It took me a while to make it since I could only work on it after duties," you added, your voice trailing off.
"Wait, what?" Penguin's brow furrowed in confusion as he tried to comprehend the significance of your words. "You mean..." His eyes narrowed as he pieced together the revelation slowly dawning on him. Sensing the weight of his realization, you braced yourself, anticipation coursing through you as you awaited his response.
"We only started dating a month ago..." Penguin's thoughts raced as he connected the dots. "Oh..." Understanding washed over him, the pieces of the puzzle falling into place. Sensing your embarrassment, you covered your face with both hands, attempting to hide.
But Penguin wouldn't let you retreat. With a gentle yet firm grip, he grasped both of your wrists, pinning them down against the bed.
"Look at me," he commanded, his cheeks flushing with color. Slowly, you complied, your cheeks burning with embarrassment as you met his gaze, unable to hide.
"You tell me," Penguin urged, searching your eyes with unwavering intensity.
"I know you already figured it out," you replied, your voice soft and pouty.
"Still..." Penguin insisted, his own cheeks tinged with embarrassment. "I wanted to hear it from you," he pressed, his eyes pleading for honesty.
"I..." You hesitated, the weight of the moment hanging between you. "I already liked you even before you started courting me," you confessed, biting your lip nervously.
Your heart pounded in your chest, its rhythm echoing in your ears, Penguin cupped your face gently, His touch eliciting a shiver down your spine. His thumb brushed against your lower lip, tracing its contours as he locked eyes with you, the intensity of his gaze stirring a flurry of emotions within you. You could feel the tremble in his hand, mirroring the racing of your own pulse.
"Penguin..." you whispered, your voice barely audible above the thudding of your heart. Your eyes flickered from his gaze to his lips, the air between you thick with anticipation. Something shifted in the atmosphere of the room, an electric charge igniting the space between you.
"Kiss me," you blurted out, your voice breathless with desire, the words escaping before you could stop them.
"You don't have to ask," Penguin replied, his voice a soft murmur, laden with promise. And with those words as his cue, he closed the distance between you, his lips meeting yours in a fervent, passionate embrace. Time seemed to stand still as you lost yourself in the sweetness of the moment, the world melting away until there was nothing but the warmth of his touch, the taste of his lips, and the intoxicating sensation of being utterly consumed by his kiss.
With both of his hands cradling your head, Penguin pressed his forehead against yours, his breath mingling with yours as he pulled away from the passionate kiss. Parting his lips, he struggled to steady his breath, his chest rising and falling with the intensity of the moment.
"Tell me I'm not dreaming," Penguin pleaded, his voice tinged with a hint of uncertainty, his gaze searching yours for reassurance. Instead of answering, you leaned forward and planted a tender smack on his lips, a silent affirmation of your shared reality, your eyes closed as you too attempted to catch your breath.
"What did I do to deserve you?" Penguin's voice was soft, filled with wonder and gratitude, his question hanging in the air between you like a whispered prayer.
~~~~~~~~~
As time passed, A feeling of satisfaction settled between you and Penguin, the atmosphere imbued with the warmth of shared moments and quiet pledges. The two of you found yourselves seated beside each other on the bed, backs against the wall, holding hands in a silent embrace. You rested your head on Penguin's left shoulder, feeling the warmth of his presence comforting you.
"Starting today, I'll look forward to my birthday every year!" Penguin grinned at you, his eyes sparkling with anticipation for the future. "Thank you, for making me feel alive," he added, his heart overflowing with gratitude for the positive turn of events.
"Everything! For you..." you replied, your voice filled with love and sincerity, your heart swelling with happiness at his words.
Suddenly, three soft knocks echoed at the door, interrupting your private moment.
"Oh, time's up," you informed Penguin, who tilted his head in confusion.
"I actually asked Ikkaku if we could stay here in the room, privately," you explained, a mischievous twinkle in your eye.
"Wow, all the favors you asked from everyone, just for my birthday," Penguin remarked, his surprise evident as you brightly smiled at him.
"Uhh, (y/n)?" Ikkaku's voice came from the other side of the door.
"Two minutes!" you shouted in response, before turning back to Penguin.
Before you could open the door, Penguin wrapped his arms around you from behind, pulling you close for one last intimate embrace before you stepped outside.
As you opened the door, Penguin followed you out, finding Ikkaku leaning against the wall with arms crossed.
"Oh thank god! You guys didn't look like you had sex inside the room," Ikkaku blurted out bluntly, leaving you speechless.
"IKKAKU!" you exclaimed, shocked by her straightforward remark.
"What? You only told me you needed the room for yourself, and it turns out it was your boyfriend's birthday today, so I assumed it was the case," Ikkaku explained matter-of-factly.
"Haha! I like your train of thought, Ikkaku," Penguin chimed in mischievously.
"Penguin!!!" you glared at him, feeling a mix of embarrassment and amusement.
"Hey! Chill! I'm joking!" Penguin reassured you, rubbing his hands on both your shoulders. "And if that time comes, I want it to be special, and we both want it to be, not just because of the heat of the moment, right?" he added, brushing his hand against your chin as he gazed at you lovingly, showing his respect and consideration for you.
"Ok fine! I get the point! Ugh," Ikkaku sighed, feeling sick with the cheesy lines. "So, you guys move away from the door 'cause I want to rest now," she added.
"Good night!" you beamed at her, and Ikkaku smiled back before closing the door.
"Well?" Penguin stood in front of you, anticipation evident in his gaze. "I'm on night shift, it's my turn to guard the sub," he informed you.
"I wanted to stay with you," you told him honestly, not quite ready for the day to end just yet.
"Are you sure?" Penguin questioned, concern etching his features. "If you happen to fall asleep, I'll just carry you back to your room," he offered, his voice filled with tenderness.
"Sounds like a plan," you nodded, a smile playing on your lips.
"I can't wait to show off your gift to them!" Penguin's smile widened; his eyes gleaming with excitement at the thought of sharing your thoughtful present with the rest of the crew.
And so, hand in hand, you and Penguin set off towards the control room, the shared laughter and pure love echoing through the corridors as you embraced the night together.

A squeaky yelp resounded from the kitchen, followed by a clatter and a crash. The three whipped their heads around at the unexpected noise, exchanging a few startled looks of mild concern and confusion.
“Jeez!” Donatello exclaimed, hand on his plastron like a woman clutching her pearls. He was now holding his screwdriver like he was about to stab somebody with it, and Raphael honestly wouldn’t put it past him.
“Uh… everything okay in there, dude?” Michelangelo asked. He was peering over the back of the couch, expression quizzical and slightly worried.
“Talk about a turtle in a china shop,” Raphael remarked, rolling his eyes.
Usually, he would love the sound of being right, but this time it sounded like somebody plowed a bulldozer directly through their sewer. Well, leave it to Leonardo to be in the kitchen for less than ten minutes and do irreparable damage to something. Or someone.
Leonardo did not respond.
When met with nothing but air, they exchanged an increasingly more concerned glance. Usually, Leonardo would have started apologizing profusely already, so this whole silent treatment was more than a little strange.
“Uh, Leonardo?” Donatello asked, setting the weapon of toaster destruction down. “What happened?”
When Leonardo finally emerged from the kitchen, he was about five shades paler than normal and his eyes were blown wide. Raphael’s gaze trailed to his hands, which were clasped tightly together aside from the index finger poking out. He was about to wonder why, then everything suddenly clicked into place.
Oh, joy.

Tender nights
Tumblr media
@GOKUJOUNOMAGURO
The Captain's quarters were dimly lit, with a soft, ambient glow emanating from a small lantern on the bedside table. The air was filled with the faint scent of sea salt, a reminder of the ship's constant voyage across the vast ocean. The rhythmic creaking of the ship served as a lullaby, creating a soothing atmosphere that enveloped the room.
As you lay there in your vulnerable state, the plush mattress cradled your form. The silkiness of your long camisole and the gentle touch of the sheets against your bare skin provided a sense of comfort. Your body was relaxed, and your mind drifted in the realm of dreams.
In the midst of this tranquil scene, a sudden weight on the left side of the bed disrupted your peaceful slumber. Your senses gradually awakened as you felt the delicate tug on your camisole, exposing your midriff to the cool air. Feather-light kisses traced a tantalizing path from your left knee, meandering up your inner thigh, sending shivers through your body.
The sensation heightened as Law's half-naked form hovered over you, his warmth seeping into your skin. His lips continued their sweet assault, leaving a trail of warmth on your abdomen and inching up to your slightly exposed breast. Law positioned himself above you, his head nestled between your chest, his breaths creating a gentle rise and fall against your skin.
"Uh, Law?"
you murmured, a mix of confusion and curiosity in your voice. There was no immediate response. Instead, you heard the subtle sound of a contented snore escaping his lips. A small smile tugged at the corners of your lips.
"What a baby,"
you chuckled softly, your hand brushing through Law's disheveled hair.
Your left hand lightly pressed against the reassuring warmth of his back, and you could feel the steady beat of his heart. Despite the unexpected intrusion into your sleep, there was a comforting familiarity in his presence.
"Sleep tight, my love,"
you whispered, leaning down to place a tender kiss on the crown of his head.
Inhaling deeply, you allowed the moment to wash over you. With a sigh, you reached out for the blanket within arm's reach, pulling it over the two of you. The warmth of the blanket and the embrace of Law's sleeping form cocooned you in a sense of security. With a final exhale, you surrendered once again to the embrace of dreams, wrapped in the intimacy of the Captain's quarters and the unexpected company of your slumbering partner.

Call it a fix-it of sorts…
410. Redo
In another world, Miles won’t hear from Gwen for over a year.
In this world, he’s been Spider-Man for three months by the time the door opens again.
“You got a minute?”
He does. Oh, he most certainly does.
It’s night when they head out, and New York is dazzling.
(Although if Miles has thoughts on comparing the city’s lights to the face of his friend, he keeps them to himself.)
“Miguel O’Hara,” explains Gwen, as they swing down Fulton. “He’s kind of like a, hmm, a ninja vampire? But sarcastic. Very sarcastic. He and Peni got the gizmos working.”
“Wait, so what’s the difference between a goober and a gizmo?”
“…I’m not actually sure. But Miguel’s pretty insistent on it. He and Peni haven’t stopped arguing since he came by I think.”
Miles chuckles.
“So Peni went and got Spider-Ham first, who knows what kind of trouble he’s getting up to, and then they went to get, uh, Noir Peter? And then me. And, well…”
Miles feels pretty warm inside, despite the nip from the March air and the rush from the swing.
“…thanks.”
“Nothing to thank me for, I mean, everyone else was already there and we still need to get to Other Peter—”
“I mean it, though. Thank you.” He smiles. “I missed you.”
“Yeah, I figured,” teases Gwen.
(But she’s smiling too. He can tell.)
“Watch out for the truck!”
“Watch out for the whAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAI’m alive!”
There’s a near-triangular building at the intersection with Hoyt that has a spectacular view of the city. Black and red and gold and white and blue, towers rising from the dark of the river to rival the lights from the sky.
Gwen, mask off and upside-down, breathes in the air. “Ahh. You know, this place even smells different?”
“And that, Spider-Woman,” says Miles beside her, leaning back on the glass with stars all around them, “is a definite sign you ain’t from Brooklyn.”
She slaps lightly at his arm. “Shush, you. I meant…there’s something else in the air. Sound doesn’t echo the same way it does back home, it’s dulled. But the colours are clearer. Things don’t blur as easily.”
“Is it really that different in your world?” Miles asks.
Gwen shrugs. “Wanna come see?”
Thankfully Miles has not picked up Ham’s comedic timing, because falling straight off the glass on a forty-something-storey building would be a terrible idea.
“You serious?”
“Pretty serious, yeah.” Gwen sits up, reaches into her pocket, and pulls out…
It looks like a watch. Steely grey, two sets of numbers. One reads 1610. The other reads 2314, which he thinks is the actual time right now.
Miles takes it with a look of absolute amazement on his face, and Gwen can't help but laugh in delight. Miles laughs back, and the echoes spin in space and time.
“Welcome to the club, Miles.”

This story is my first Avatar: TLOK fanfic. A Lin/Asami crack pairing that was written off the top of my head, and wasn't outlined or anything.
Might consider doing some more of these two in a proper story once I'm finished with doing Teen Titans, Justice League/Justice League Unlimited, and Young Justice stuff on AO3.

Now and Forever Yours
Our first collab as a server! We each took a chapter and interpreted the prompt in our own way. They can be read as a continuation of each other or completely separate. We even had some of our wonderful artists join us! Enjoy!
Summary: A series of ficlets, doodles and sketches, paintings, mood boards, etc., all revolving around SessKag and their evolution as a couple in the feudal era.
